  • Did You Queer About… Celebrity Huns on Drag Race and new eras for Charli XCX and Robyn?
    Nov 21 2025

    It’s a cause for celebration this week as the boys hit double digits with episode 10, Drag Race UK delivers its best episode of season seven so far, and Charli XCX drops new music that Mikey actually loves — much to Ben’s surprise and delight.


    They share their thoughts on the format of the controversial makeover challenge and the subculture of huns, their expectations for the upcoming Wuthering Heights film adaptation and concept album, and reveal whether Robyn’s new single has boosted their Dopamine levels — and if Miley’s song for Avatar: Fire and Ash has truly set them ablaze.


    Find out just how much they’ve been teased by the new trailers for The Devil Wears Prada 2 and The End of an Era. Plus, lots more.

  • Did You Queer About... the Celeb Traitors final, the Grammy noms and the new Katy Perry song?
    Nov 14 2025

    Ben and Mikey are back with episode 9 and starting to wonder if this is the alternate universe. Alan Carr has won The Celebrity Traitors, Katy Perry has released good music and the Wicked cast have given us the most wonderful piece of promo.


    They dive into the big four Grammy nominations, the latest episode of Drag Race UK and Rosalía’s new album LUX, asking some big questions along the way:


    What is the difference between Song of the Year and Record of the Year? Did the wrong queen go home after Snatch Game? Can we enjoy music when we don’t understand a word of what they are saying?
