The Wildblood and Queenie Show returns to 1BTN at last on Friday 25th August. Playing nothing but loved-up Love Is The Message We Are Love bangers, Sunday Sundae sizzlers and tunes to watch seagulls by. On the beach. Obviously. So join me and Arnie (and an eventual Queenie as she hot-foots it from ironing her Best In Show slacks ahead of the Brighton Pride Dog … Continue reading The Wildblood and Queenie 1BTN Show 250823
Dear Greggs. The arrival of the pumpkin latte is not the news I have been waiting for. If you care to email me about the resignation of this Tory shambles of a government, Suella Braverman being locked in a barge moored to an island in the centre of hell, the sudden enlightenment of TERFS everywhere, Arsenal WFC signing Mary Earps, someone mastering the art of … Continue reading Since when is Greggs’ Pumpkin Spice Latte news?
Like all good autistic souls, I can take a while to recharge. Like all good autistic souls, I can take time to crack on with my to-do list. Sharing the Sunday Sundae Pride Reunion love is no chore though. A joyful, wonder of a day spent with new friends and old. Wowing at the brilliance of those I am blessed to call friends, on and … Continue reading We love Sunday Sundae

At some point during the Friday of We Are Love this weekend Queenie and I did a live radio show – every tune had the word love in the title – Love is the Message after all and was dedicated to Hannah Sherlock, Mickey Jukes, Ben GC, Matthew Davids and the incredible 1BTN family. It lasted all of 90 mins then we got too, too … Continue reading Wildblood and Queenie Show live from We Are Love

Love is the Message happened. Saturday night in the woods happened. The r-word became reset. The doubt dismissed. The love for that thing I do with tunes standing beside … Continue reading We Are Love we love you
The thing they don’t tell you about DJing is it’s where love lives. You think it is all about the first 12” you obsess over, the divine disco you can’t stop collecting, the cowbell that follows you into your dreams, the house bassline that shakes you to your dancing core. You think it’s about your name on flyers, the resident brackets you fought so hard … Continue reading We Are Love Festival 2023
1987. Guildford School of Acting and Dance Stage Management course. Fresh out of school desperate to find the queer tribe Frinton’s cold sands would never give me. Dyed my hair, tucked my black knitted polo neck into my beige chinos (it was the look apparently), spent months on the wrong side of the Greyhound pub, and hooked up with some GSA darlings who played harder … Continue reading Guildford School of Acting 1987
An Exhibition For MindOut Queen Josephine is keeping us proud this month as she combines forces with Paul Smith (yes that Paul Smith, Mr sensational suits and stripes!) to fundraise for MindOut this London Pride.
