  • Kele Okereke - Bloc Party, heartbreak and partying at Trade in the noughties
    Jan 14 2025
    The final episode of Season 1 has landed, and who better to wrap up with, than the lead singer of Bloc Party?! Kele Okereke has led a fascinating life: his parents are Nigerian immigrants, and he only came out to them aged 26. Bloc Party played at Glastonbury last year, though Kele's life has changed massively since the band's early success of the noughties. His origin stories are about his heady clubbing days, the heartbreak he's been through and how giving their demo to Franz Ferdinand changed his life.

  • Armistead Maupin - 'I was a little queer boy, there was no room for that'
    Jan 7 2025
    Cush is joined by the author of the groundbreaking Tales of the City series, Armistead Maupin. Armistead reminisces about the night before his first book was published, where Rock Hudson 'knocked his socks off', what it was like living in San Franscico in the 70s, and coming out in 1971. Amistead shares his secret to long lasting marriage: the importance of always going to bed with an 'I love you' in what he calls a 'not so conventional' marriage. His Origin stories include memories of his grandmother, how Tales of the City came to fruition, and the moment he set eyes on his now husband for the first time.
