Her bestselling cookbook and online app provided her success, respect, and a connection to the cancer-battling influencer she admired the most.

Kaitlyn Dever stars in the Netflix hit series Apple Cider Vinegar . Inspired by true events, the dramatized story follows Belle’s journey from self-styled wellness thought leader to disgraced con artist.

Jeremy Corbyn on Campaigning, Peace & Running For Prime Minister 41:38

vor 14 Tagen41:38

41:38

He's the man who was once set to be the Prime Minister of the UK, having gained more popular support in the 2019 General Election than the current Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer received in his Downing Street-winning race. Jeremy Corbyn is one of the most identifiable names in British politics. Jeremy Corbyn has been a mainstay in British Parliament for over 40 years, having been elected as the MP for Islington North in 1983. But, his journey didn't begin on the backbenches, nor has it ended after his time as Labour Party leader concluded. Corbyn is a lifelong campaigner - having become a trade union representative out of school, he has campaigned for the Anti-Fascist Action, the Anti-Apartheid Movement and the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament. He has received the Gandhi International Peace Award and Seán MacBride Peace Prize. In this episode of The Pieces, Bimini and Jeremy talk about the moments that have shaped Jeremy Corbyn into the life-long campaigner he has become. From failing in school to his experiences running for Prime Minister, growing up in a Labour household and whether using the nuclear deterrent is ever the right solution.

Glyn Fussell is one of the most important names behind not just the UK’s thriving nightlife (he was named the King of the Club Scene after all), but the country’s queer scene as well. As the co-founder of the iconic Sink The Pink, the largest LGBTQ+ collective in the UK (and from where Bimini’s stage act was born) and now the co-founder and director of Mighty Hoopla, the most inclusive pop festival in the country, Glyn Fussell has dedicated his life’s work to celebrating queer culture and championing our diversity – making sure that everyone has a place to fit in. But Glyn wasn’t born remotely near the scene he came to establish – he was a shy, imaginative child from a working-class family. He could have only dreamt to have the formative role in the shaping of queer culture that he has. In this episode of The Pieces , Bimini and Glyn talk about the pivotal moments in school that shaped Glyn, the birth of Sink The Pink, the power of community, embracing creative chaos and the celebrities that have flocked to Mighty Hoopla.
