    Jul 13 2024

    How does @janetdevlinofficial end up touring with @russellcrowe?


    Why through @teddysphotos of course!


    We had the privilege of chatting to Janet about her time on XFactor and her upcoming album ‘Emotional Rodeo’ plus we’ll be playing her new single ‘Country Singer’ her time on the XFactor and the motivation behind being so open and honest about her mental health struggles.


    WE LOVE YOU JANET.


    We also chat with Ollie Bell (@classconsciousqueer) of @transpridedublin as the 5th Trans and Intersex pride march takes place in Dublin this weekend.


    We have a catch up call with our favourite @dublinbusnews driver Diane Somers to hear whether her first @dublinpride lived up to her expectations or not AND your unqualified Agony Guncles are BACK to restore peace to your chaotic lives.


    We have you spoilt x
