    Jolene, respect my boundaries: Directing, intimacy & Dolly w/ Heidi Gledhill | Ep 66

    Today we’re dressed in star spangled cowgirl and cowboy fits to honour the world’s most shining, trailblazing, bold southern belle diva; the phenomenal Dolly Parton. Episode 66 features our first ever theatre director and intimacy coordinator Heidi Gledhill. Heidi gets what it means to take up space as a creative, as a celeb in your own right, and as someone who doesn’t shy away from their voice and sass. Heidi brings every bit of that to the diva sphere and then some. We pay tribute to the legendary Dolly Parton, the divinegoddess, godmother of us all, the girl who grew up with nothing in Tennessee and gave 300 million books back to the world through the Imagination Library. We dive into the life and times of the woman who entered her own lookalike contest, made herself more drag, and still lost. Who wrote "I Will Always Love You" before Whitney made it hers. Who had a song locked in a box for her 100th birthday. Who was so secure in herself she could wear whatever the hell she wanted and mean every inch of it. We speak on all she meant, all she built, and all she leaves behind. We also get deep into intimacy coordinating and directing andwhat it actually is, why it only came about after the Harvey Weinstein movement, why it's newer than gay marriage, and why the industry could not have needed it more. This conversation is important and Heidi makes it fascinating. Dolly. We miss you. The cowboy boots were for you.

It starts with Forbidden Fruits (With Lily Reinhardt, whoserole on "Riverdale really was her Juilliard"), spirals into whethercreature features are the pinnacle of trash cinema, takes a detour through The Killer Condom, Rubber The Killer Tyre, Velocipasta, Leprechaun, Cocaine Bear and a knock-off Disney list that makes no sense, and ends with a passionaten defence of the Real Housewives of Melbourne as legitimate Australian cinema. Brock watched all five Sharknados in one weekend. We also debate whether Batman and Robin, Pirates of the Caribbean and Donnie Darko count as trash. And of course, how can we talk trashy movies without bringing up the icon Abby Lee Miller, yes lowkey a terrible person, but an incredible diva. Too many iconic moments. Too many.

    Anne Hathaway's Generational Film Run: A Diva Deep-Dive | Ep 63 | Okay Diva Podcast

    The fiercest celebrity comeback moment of the year: Anne Hathaway's generational run on the silver screen, coming in swinging with five film releases in 2026 alone: Mother Mary, The Devil Wears Prada 2, The Odyssey, The End of Oak Street, and Verity. Beautiful, talented and showstopping as always but is there something else going on…? Why now? Why so many? What's the reason? We ask all the hard-hitting questions about our DIVA. This episode is a full breakdown of Anne Hathaway's film career; all the way back to the beginning, we're unpacking which movies of hers raised us from foetus to fierce sis and open the floor to question what her most impactful character has been to date. We rank her entire filmography through moans cause she's hot, it makes sense gurl. Princess Diaries, Hoodwinked, Ella Enchanted, The Devil Wears Prada, Interstellar, Brokeback Mountain, Ocean's Eight, Alice in Wonderland and more, every era covered, every film rated, every hot take aired. We also get into why Anne disappeared for a while, why The Witches felt like the beginning of the end, and why 2026 is her comeback, she disappeared for a bit but has come back with five films in a single year including Christopher Nolan's epic. We discuss whether Dakota Johnson and Anne Hathaway look the same from behind, and whether Hoodwinked is the single most important film ever made for a child's development. It is. That's not up for debate. And naturally we reveal all the personal lore attached to her, you'll want to get into it. Is this Anne's most iconic moment of her career? Or is something else going down with our diva? Drop your take below.

    So Gay, So Bae, So Tony T, Brisbane's Most Fab Radio Host | Ep 62 | Okay Diva Pod

    This week the Divas finally have professional HOMOSEXUAL Tony T on the couch; Brisbane radio host, Bay FM LEGEND, creative director of Bay Pride and host of the ICONIC So Bae Party Mix (Sunday nights 6-10 on Bay FM 100.3). This episode covers the full story of Bay Pride; how Tony pitched it to Wynnum Fringe on a whim, expected 50 people, got 5,500, and got protested by a chopped group carrying a Virgin Mary statue through a children's playground. Diva the horrific ankle-length beige outfits were genuinely mortifying, scarring more children than anything the gays were doing. We also get into So Bae Party Mix and how to slide Trixie Mattel into a Saturday morning rock show without anyone noticing (radio is not a visual medium babe, but it is divalicious), the Drag Race Down Under Debrief podcast origin story, our favourite sleep paralysis demon Bianca Del Rio, and the Drag Roast recap featuring Thorgy, William, Raja and Kween Kong.Plus: Pop World opening night review, the Trixie Motel honeymoon, a midnight Rocky Horror screening in LA, Willam's balls framed above the dirty laundry, and the philosophy that separates people who have ideas from the people who actually build them.Were you at Bay Pride?
