You asked — we finally answered. In this tell-all Q&A, we’re diving into everything: Are we getting married? How do we really feel about open relationships and cheating? What habits drive us absolutely crazy? And what are the things we’ve never shared publicly… until now?

From playful banter (yes, we tackle the "Is Keegan a giant or is Joel just tiny?" debate) to the most personal corners of our relationship, this episode is full of honesty, laughs, and a few surprises we didn’t plan on sharing.

Whether you’ve been with us from the start or you’re just tuning in, this one’s raw, real, and 100% us. 💕

🎧 Grab your favorite drink and come hang — it’s a good one.

This week we're getting fired up about Pride and the companies that have done a runner when things got too real. We're talking about the companies who were all rainbow logos last year but mysteriously went silent this Pride month.

We chat about the statistic that 39% of Fortune 500 companies pulled back their Pride support this year, why Trump's election has made everyone scared of being "too woke," and how Pride feels more like the protest it started as rather than the party it became.

Joel opens up about going back to therapy because of Keegan's heart condition, while Keegan gets passionate about why some gay people are distancing themselves from trans issues when we should be standing together.

We also give massive props to the brands that actually showed up, from Boots smashing it to train companies wrapping entire trains in rainbow colours, and an exciting announcement about Leeds Pride!

Plus we get into what real allyship looks like when it's not trendy, why supporting queer owned businesses matters more than ever, and what it really means to be part of our community in 2025.

This week we're joined by the brilliant Layton Williams for a proper catch-up about his incredible career journey. From playing Billy Elliot at 12 years old to winning an Olivier Award for playing an iceberg in Titanique (yes, really), Layton's story is wild.

We chat about his time on Strictly Come Dancing and how he pushed boundaries by performing in drag on Saturday night TV, his emotional experience filming Who Do You Think You Are and discovering his family's history, and why being the voice of I Kissed a Boy means so much to him.

Layton also opens up about how being in a loving relationship has changed his perspective on life, his Slay Clubs business that's building confidence in young people across the UK, and his passionate plea for everyone to support their local gay bars before they disappear.

Plus he explains why he thought every footballer position was a "lead role," and shares why turning 30 has made him feel like a genuinely happy, healthy homo.

It's a conversation full of laughs, honesty, and genuine insight into what it means to stay authentic while building a career in entertainment.
