Listen, we don’t hold grudges on this show and if any guest was going to cancel on us for THE BLOODY ONE SHOW, we would allow it to be Maisie Peters. But we’ve finally dragged her, not kick and screaming, but rather hesitantly, into our word of rubbish grub!Hot off the back of dropping her new album we are privileged to have Maisie spinning our roulette wheel this week. However, and this is a word of warning - this episodes contains name dropping throughout and the sort of Ed Sheeran love even his own mother would consider awkward. She is his first label signing, so you could have probably predicted it.Not only that we talk about fan-girling over Taylor Swift, meeting Sam Smith and what it takes to get, ‘Crazy Maisie’ to come out. Grab a vodka and lemonade, it’s Maisie Peters time,

ALL THE GOOD THINGS HAVE COME AT ONCE... this week on the show not only are we joined by an actual olympian, but we are joined by an olympian who is a member of the British Empire. It’s the legend that is Chris Mears. Chris has the life that you believe only happens in fiction - when training for a diving competition in Sydney his spleen ruptured causing him to almost die, he lost 2L of blood and had a 5% survival chance. He was told he would never dive again. 2 years later he won gold in Rio.On top of all this he has recently left diving behind to become a DJ/Producer as part of the Bloodline duo, supporting Labrinth and Pendulum on stage and releasing music with The Vamps. This episode is an absolute rollercoaster. Strap yourself in… it’s Chris Mears.

IT'S YOUR LOCAL ENERGY PROVIDER.... yes yes yes, we know we normally put an episode out on a Thursday but when it's coming home, it is hard to keep too stringent schedules like that, isn't it! Cider and Southgate must come first! Anyway, strap yourself in for a big episode as we are joined by the ever fantastic Remi Burgz. Chatting growing up in south London, how Will.I.AM helped her come out to her dad and the journey to joining BBC Radio 1Xtra. Grab yourself a pint of ‘it’s coming home’, it’s Remi Burgz time!
