Okay Diva is a chaotic, unfiltered journey into divaness with your two fave gays. From pop culture spirals and on-set disasters to identity, friendship, and the mess in between. We’re discovering what it means to be a diva today. We are serving laughs, healing, and a bit too much oversharing. For the girls, the gays, and the theys finding their inner icon one meltdown at a time. No tea, no shade… just growth, glamour, and a little bit of delusion. Okay diva?

    The Khia Asylum: A Divas Guide to Escape | Ep 57 | Okay Diva Podcast

    We find ourselves deep in the Khia Asylum this week. What it is, who's in it, who built it, and who has successfully escaped. Ava Max is the final boss. Zara Larson escaped. Charli XCX was one of the founding prisoners. And Khia herself? Gets her flowers fully in this episode because that woman wrote a song that hit so hard it became the name of an entire cultural institution for struggling artists. We also get into labels vs boxes — whether labelling yourself is empowering, whether boxes are something only other people put you in, and whether you can even separate the two when your self-identity is built on experiences imposed on you by others. It gets genuinely good. We close out Pride Month with a Hacks Season 4 finale discussion that is just unhinged love, possibly the best ending to a show either of us has watched in a decade, a full campaign for a Lou spinoff, and Jean Smart deserving every award that exists. Plus: Olivia Rodrigo's album debate, why horror still doesn't get enough Oscars recognition (Sinners excepted), and Drag Race Down Under Season 1's audio sounding like it's being recorded inside a kidnapping. Have you finished Hacks? Are you okay? Let us know. Also who do you think is in the Khia Asylum right now?

    Woodford Folk Fests First Born turned Actor Superstar DIVA (Ft. Stella Peterson) | Ep 56 | Okay Diva

    Episode 56 features actor Stella, who has the single most Brisbane-adjacent diva origin story we've ever heard: they were the first ever baby born into the Woodford Folk Festival. We open with the obligatory dive into their theatre diva diagnosis, which all began when mid-performance Stella broke their ankle and slayed all the way through, finishing the scene anyway, because a diva knows the show must go on. From there we get into the state of Brisbane's theatre scene right now — the gap between amateur and professional work, why funding and proper stepping stones matter, and how Queensland's screen and stage industry is genuinely booming post-COVID. We talk schoolies nostalgia, blackout drinking lessons learned the hard way, and a wild detour into far west Queensland involving a tiny town(a guy named Bob, a hole, and a community that's somehow completely fine about it). Then it gets sweet. Stella is the first ever baby born into Woodford Folk Festival, their mum was one of the original programmers and builders of the festival, and their parents were the first couple ever married on site. They tells a beautifully strange story about a mystery woman, a pair of earrings, and a tradition they've now carrying forward themself. When ask the hard questions, like: What divalicious baked good everyone would be. Were you a Woodford kid, or do you have your own wild small-town Queensland story? Tell us below. Stella is an actor working across Brisbane and Australian theatre and screen.

    Extra-fiercestrials exist and you deserve to know | Ep 55 | Okay Diva Podcast

    We just watched Disclosure Day, so naturally we have a lot to say about aliens, the universe, and the existence of extra-fiercestrials! We get into it about Disclosure Day and kiiiii over Emily Blunt (She carrieddddd) But the real conversation starts when the question comes up: do aliens actually exist? YES DIVA, obviously, and anyone who thinks Earth is the only planet with life is giving main character syndrome on a cosmic scale. We get into the philosophy of it, why Hollywood keeps making aliens ugly and scary when they could just as easily be glamorous, and why somewhere out there in the universe there's absolutely a species of alien divas living their best life. Do you think aliens are out there? And more importantly — do you think they're fierce? Let us know.

    Episode 53 and we're eating vegan pastries and connecting dots between creepypasta and cinema. We're back on our horror sh*t: movies, Silent Hill 2, all of it. Backrooms got us thinking about where it all really began for our generation... on creepypasta and the internet, and now WE are the ones making mainstream horror. We reminisce on old YouTube nostalgia, the creepypasta-to-conspiracy-video pipeline, and random stanship of Tana Mongeau. We break down every horror film we're genuinely excited about this year and like usual there are a lot. Diva of the Week: Tana Mongeau, always and forever. And Pippa from Pippa's Pantry in Camp Hill, fully vegan, open Friday and Saturday only, and the banana caramel croissant is not a joke. Go immediately. Were you a creepypasta kid?
