AWD Dinner Parties: PJ, Jess and Jake

Hello and welcome to a very special new COVID-inspired spin-off series: After Work Drinks Dinner Parties. We're turning our weekly wine-induced Zoom calls with an array of hilarious and funny friends from around the world into a handful of extra bonus podcasts for you all. For our debut ep, we have Polly 'PJ' Harding - radio host extraordinaire and friend of Izzy's from way back; Jessica Vander Leahy - columnist, model, influencer/generally extraordinary human who we were lucky enough to share an office with; and Jake Halpin, social media strategist to fashion's biggest names and our favourite man in London. We are - quite literally - covering everything. Embarrassing 'sliding into a celebrity's DMs' stories! Illegal kittens! Ronan Farrow's embarrassing accents! Little Edie! Almost bousing John MayerSexting and Skype dating in iso! Randomly living with 'Swiss Hot Jesus' for a month in 2013! Listen now and enjoy one of these bad boys every week for the next month.
