I’ve written a few blog posts on this platform and shared a few posts on Facebook about being impacted by the deaths of celebrities.
And while it’s not often I feel moved enough to do it, a few years ago I penned a few words about my appreciation for Olivia Newton John (in this Facebook post) and Prince’s death ten years ago had me feeling extremely emotional (in this blog post).
And today I’m taking time to reflect on the life, art, and kindness of another celebrity. The recent death of Dolly Parton has sent seismic waves of grief around the planet and I have my own feelings I feel compelled to share.
We passed episode 100 and now are flying forward with a new episode every Tuesday.
Tell Me Where I’m Going (Wrong) is back with episode 102. This week Josh and I discuss the World Cup fever that is taking over the … um, world, as well as the interest in Madonna’s new album. Do we think it’s any good?
We also chat about how we don’t think there is such a thing as an ethical billionaire. This comes in the wake of Taylor Swift hiring Madison Square Garden for her wedding to sport star Travis Kelce.

We are getting closer to a century of podcast episodes and this week episode 99 of Tell Me Where I’m Going (Wrong) was recorded while I was visiting Australia.
Josh and I chat about travel etiquette, what we think of Madonna’s new music, and legendary Australian rockstar (and vegan!) Adalita of Magic Dirt. We also revisit our our personal stories of dealing with homophobia following Australian sporting personality Kane Evans coming out.

Dauns is a much-loved Scandi vegan cafe in London. Their brunch plates are legendary and the regular clientele couldn’t be convinced to go anywhere else for their daily coffee and pastries.
The brains and muscle behind Dauns is Rickard. He cooks. He cleans. He does all the behind the scenes magic to make Dauns work.
But did you know Rickard is also a member of a band which is about to celebrate its 20th anniversary with a gig in North London this May?
Josh and I are back with another episode of our weekly podcast.
In this episode of Tell Me Where I’m Going (Wrong), we chat about the recent controversy surrounding pop star Chappell Roan and how the public often overstep boundaries with famous people.
We discuss our recent experiences at Lily Allen concerts (Josh in London, me in Sheffield) and consider the terrifying reality of living with AI. Our discussion touches on an animal rights activist who was singled out by security using facial recognition technology.

I love bringing you news about exciting vegan and vegan-friendly events in London and I’ve certainly reported on some wild and wonderful happenings over the years.
But this vegan wine and cheese tasting event in South London is definitely one of the more unique things I’ve shared.
Today I wanted to take a few moments of your time to draw attention to a song called Empty Seat and the person behind it.
The song feels especially poignant to me because it was written and performed by my friend Josh, who many of you will know was my partner for twenty years. The song is an emotional look at the end of our relationship as it morphed into an ongoing friendship and how Josh managed to process the emotions around it.
If you’re looking for a night of Queer creativity, community, and good vibes, you need to get yourself to Queer Open Mic this Sunday in South London.
I started the open mic about two years ago with my friend Josh as we wanted to create a safe and supportive space for LGBTQ+ performers in London because, let’s be real, not all open mic nights are as welcoming as they should be.
