We’re still pinching ourselves that we had the absolutely legendary Chaka Khan join us this week! Chaka arrived fresh in from visiting a local school, and she brought her gorgeous sister Tammy & daughter Dana along with her too. Over mum’s delicious afternoon tea we talked all about the phenomenal career Chaka has had, including her upcoming album and brand new musical ‘I’m Every Woman’ launching in the UK. We heard about her skincare routine (our fave topic!), living in Georgia with her family, her dislike of touring, how she became Sia’s godmother, the food served at Nelson Mandela’s birthday party, her love of the TV show 'The Chase’, plus she shares all the stories of hanging out with (wait for it) - Prince, Stevie Wonder, Whitney Houston, Tina Turner & Michael Jackson - no biggy! We barely scratched the surface with this legend, this episode absolutely needs a part 2!

This week, we have the legendary singer and cruise extraordinaire, Jane McDonald! Jane arrived with a gorgeous bunch of flowers in hand and mum & I instantly fell in love with her. We talked about everything from her life on the cruise ships (and the secret crew parties), performing everywhere from Blackpool to Vegas, learning to dance with her dad, growing up in a police lodging house, her tips for the perfect gravy and we discover that she is also her own manager - there’s no end to her skills! Jane is welcome to join us for lunch anytime, maybe even on the high seas next time! Jane's brand new album 'Living The Dream' and tickets to her tour are available now.

It’s a family affair this week, we have acting royalty Kurt Russell with his son Wyatt Russell here to talk about the brand new series of their hit Apple TV show. We’ve already had Wyatt’s sister Kate Hudson join us, we’re only a few steps away from ticking off the full family (Goldie next?). We covered everything from Kurt being a trained pilot, Wyatt never wanting to become an actor, their joint phobia of spiders, eating ready meals while filming in Australia, being wine & cocktail entrepreneurs, and we even find out that Wyatt took his very first steps on the set of our all time fave film - Overboard! We absolutely loved having this gorgeous father and son duo join us, looks like we’re getting closer and closer to an invite to THAT epic NYE party…! The new series of Monarch: Legacy of Monsters is streaming now on Apple TV now. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It’s a pop emergency this week as we have Hilary Duff joining us on the podcast! Fresh from her smash sell out London show, Hilary joined us for lunch to talk about her brand new album ‘Luck… Or Something’. We chatted about being a mum of 4, growing up in Texas, we swapped sourdough starter tips, heard about writing the album with her husband, she shared her thoughts on being compared to Sabrina Carpenter, where to eat in LA, and Hilary confesses she actually stopped at Brick Lane for a quick bagel en route to the recording! We can’t wait to see her headline at The O2 later this year when she kicks off her huge world tour. Hilary’s album ‘Luck… Or Something’ is a great record and it’s available to buy everywhere now.
