A big thank you to the multi-platinum selling Ed Sheeran - maybe you’ve heard of him? - for coming by the studio and sharing stories from his incredible career, hobnobbing with his artistic peers, the perils of nosebleed-altitude stardom, his come-up, balancing work and home

Actor and documentary host Danny Dyer stopped by the studio to discuss his life and career - growing up in East London, “losing the plot,” discovering acting, football hooliganism, whether he is “the people’s Louis Theroux”, drink and drugs, why Harold Pinter was his “higher

Who’s ready for a generous serving of hot salted pod? Yes, TLTP is back for another run and this time we’re serious (and occasionally comic). We’ve got Steve Coogan. We’ve got Florence Pugh. We’ve got  David Byrne. We’ve got Malala Yousafzai. We’ve got Michael Palin. We’ve got

The one, the only, the amazing Florence Pugh is in the house ladies and gentlemen. I THOUGHT SHE WAS AMERICAN before I prepped the interview, that’s how out of it I am, but also how amazing SHE IS with her accents and her ability to disappear into roles. Midsommar? Little Women?

The world’s most famous performance artist Marina Abramović - who sat motionless and silent for months on end at MOMA for one of her most celebrated pieces The Artist is Present - joined the chat to sit non-motionless and emphatically non-silent for the LTP, discussing some of

“Hey JC, JC, won’t you smile at me? Sanna ho sanna hey superstar!” Yes it’s UK comedy colossus Jimmy-Christ Super-Carr - wonder of the one-liner, panel show panjandrum, and co-writer of the just-released movie Fackham Hall. Jimmy joined us for a far-reaching chat about risque
