It's Part One of Hot Topics! And honestly? It's giving 101.5 FM's 80's, 90's and today. JP returns to the mic and leads us through our favorite friendship past time: discussing hot topics.

We explore pop culture through the lens of our adolescent influences and current parasocial dynamics, discuss the the highs and lows of classics being live-actioned, share a couple of reviews (if you've not seen Wicked, Part 2...skip through), and end up sashaying to the hottest topics of all. Listen and enjoy, sweet peas!

Faith isn’t always a fixed thing. In this episode, multidimensional artist Avery Youma joins me to explore queerness, spirituality, and the ongoing process of becoming. We get into belief systems, the courage it takes to question them, and the quiet, often tender work of redefining faith on your own terms — with touches of divine femininity and plantcestry along the way. This one is an invitation to find what truly aligns.

If it isn’t obvious…the boys are lonely. In this episode, Beatrice Oshodi, your new favorite Gemini who serves range (I'm talking engineering to astrology), joins me to explore masculinity, emotional homes, and the contradictions —power and tenderness, silence and expression—that shape male loneliness and connection.
