Happy New Year, Divas! Despite 2021 seeming like she might have been on the way up, she did a quick volte face at the finale and ended up being just as much of a bin fire as her predecessor. However the diva-verse was agog with wonderful content throughout and, accordingly, this episode sees Holly & Tom (as is tradition) doing a run down of 2021's …

Salutations Divas, As some of you will be aware, we have had something of a change in time management capacity and have thusly moved your regular dollop of something *extra* to monthly.

Something in your ears, Divas, Strap in, as she's very Steps-focused this week following a) Holly stepping on a proverbial land mine in our Britney episode and provoking Rich's latest bitch and b) the news that Ancient Claire from Steps will be appearing in The War of the Worlds opposite a hologram of Liam Neeson. Whilst all this leads to an edifyi…

You're so lucky, Divas, She's finally here. And we don't just mean comedy icon and Spears stan, Tim Murray (@TMurray06) who we've secured, along with her extensive credits list. No, we're excited because we've strapped Tim in for the first part of two episodes detailing, what we'd consider, "Phase 1" of Britney "It's Britney, Bitch" Spears. That's …

Welcome Divas, I'm afraid we're all booked up in our outside area until 2029, but we welcome you to take the podcast away and enjoy the freezing, damp park of this week's episode, in which we ply you with the tins of lager, dirty blankets and Karen's homemade sausage rolls of news from the diva-verse. Have another glass of warm fizz and try to igno…

What’s that, Divas? Is it the gentle cooing of a wood pigeon? Or is it Holly and Tom discussing this year’s Eurovision entries? Why, it’s both! Once again, the pair are trying to steal Megan Mullally and Nick Offerman’s gig by podcasting from their bed. For sex people reasons, Lynn? Of course not, it’s just a much better acoustic and they’re TIRED.…

Grab your bricks, Divas! Maybe you thought our episode on Marsha P. Johnson was too sad? Strap in. It's about to get even sadder.

G'day Divas, Thankfully, the season finale of Married At First Sight Australia finally aired yesterday and has been very much consumed, so Holly actually showed up for this record.

What a bitchin' coincidence, Divas! With us for the first Little Diva of 2021 are our two very own BDE correspondents, Chris (@ChrisA) and Rich (@RichHawkins). Because there's so much to catch up on since we've been away, one bitch/coincidence simply will not do. Rich spends the episode trying to get around to talking about that Britney doc, but th…

We're back, Divas! It's been a long, cold January, presumably made all the colder without your regular dollop of diva. And we missed you all terribly. But we've returned from our self-imposed hiatus, ready to bring a bit of glitter back to the shitter. And phwoar, have we got something special to kick off the season. First off, our subject this wee…

Happy New Year, Divas! Despite 2020 being a well-documented bin fire, the diva-verse was aflame with fantastic content throughout.

Coming January 2021! Join hosts Chris Adams and Holly Morgan (Big Diva Energy), as they deep dive into their 20-year obsession with Carrie: The Musical, unearthing the crazy story behind the show’s creation and its infamously disastrous run, only to discover how Carrie rose from the dead to truly embrace its title as Queen of Flops. @outforbloodpod…

[Diana Voice] Alright? Divas, it's been difficult to decipher diva happenings today from those that happened 30 years ago when, like everyone else, we've spent all week devouring The Crown like a mountainside plane crash survivor desperately gnawing flesh from the thighbone of a fellow passenger. But, amongst other things, one thing Netflix's high-…

Let's have a kiki, Divas! And we're going to bloody need one. Then a lie down. Recorded the day after the US election, having stayed up all night to greet an apparent victory for Donald Trump, in this episode, frankly, Holly and Tom are: All. Over. The. Place. Emotionally, psychologically, organisationally. And in much the same way as the whole ele…

My fellow Divas, This week we celebrate both an historical triumph and an historical failure. Yes, Donald Trump is about to be exorcised from the White House. Yes, Kamala Harris is set to become the first female, black and Indian-origin vice-president in history. And yet... Over here, across the pond, we have suffered another damaging blow to our d…

Fingers crossed, divas! Here we are at the Devil’s crossroad. What will happen? Who knows? But, if you need a break from endless uncertainty, we present you with our subject this week: someone who may or may not be a diva! Strap in, it’s complex. In our US election night episode, we get deep about a spoiled child of immense wealth and privilege. So…

Di-vaaaaaaas! It's the single most Diva-fuelled children's film ever made. It's a star vehicle for three ICONS of the Diva-verse with some gloriously inappropriate plot-work and some questionable casting choices (siblings playing a married couple anyone?). We love it. We know you do too. It's Hocus Pocus! And this is an extra-special, ultra-spoopy …

Whooooo Divas! It's nearly Hallowe'en and, as you all know, 31st October is a Diva's best friend! Dressing up, scaring children, backlighting...the list goes on. As mentioned, we've got a very special Hallowe'en bonus episode coming out, but, until then, there's some Little Diva Energy to get to. This episode, Holly has a breaky-d trying to compare…

Three is the magic number, Divas! In the mould of all the great trilogies (Star Wars, the Godfathers, Mighty Ducks), not only must this third instalment tie up all remaining narrative strands, but also bring to an emotional climax the relationship between its key characters. And that is exactly what we present here: One hour-long climax from Holly,…

Behold, Divas! We bring you good tidings of joy, which shall be to all divas. But, before that, much movement has there been in the diva-verse. Amongst other things, Little Mix's search continues and we talk about an even bigger fan than us. The Voldemort of Culture Wars gets roundly whooped by - in her words - a "Z-List ex-soap actress". And we de…

Who's got the pain, Divas? Turns out, almost everyone involved in Gwen Verdon's life. Welcome then, to the second-act dream ballet of her story. Doing our due diligence and making Poor Nicole proud, we continue our deep-dive into Gwen's life and find her on the cusp of meeting the most important creative and romantic partner in her life, the absolu…

Thank you, Divas, for joining us today, This year’s AGM is now open. Holly rattles through the agenda this week, mainly so she and Tom can wax lyrical about Little Mix: The Search, because Mariah’s autobiography isn’t arriving until tomorrow!! As usual Rich has a bitch, Chris has a coincidence, and this week sees the return of new feature, “Excelle…

We welcome Robert via Zoom, to talk about all things Gwen Verdon: one incredible half of …

Oops Divas, We did it again. We were so busy trying to celebrate our anniversary - whilst also battling a twister of a personal shitstorm - that we’ve dropped this week’s serving of husband-and-wife ramblings on all things diva really quite late. Sayeee. There is a lot of diva news and we distractedly got around to telling you all about it eventual…

Call the midwife, Divas! We’re giving birth to our TWENTIETH full episode. The big 2-0. Blimey, hasn’t it just flown by? …ahem. But this week is an absolute treat. A much-requested Diva is the subject, and Holly and Tom are joined by an icon of pre-corona stages, from Soho to Stirling: the fabulous Nancy Clench is here to discuss the truly unique M…

Prynhawn da, Divas, Huge apologies for the delay in this week’s LDE, we’ve been a-tripping across the United Queendom, all the way to sunny, socially-distanced Wales and were missing a vital piece of equipment needed to bring you your regular little slice of something extra. But, better late than never say never! It’s not our finest week, admittedl…

Hey Big Divas! From the late sixties all the way up to present day, this week we broach the second half of DSB’s incredible life story. Welcoming back the profoundly fabulous Paul Joseph, the gang delve into The Dame’s second and third Bond themes, her post-Propellerheads comeback and THOSE Glasto wellies. (Trigger-warning: things get a little dark…

What a coincidence, divas! As Tom went to “get a cable”, so Chris (of his many coincidences) and Rich (of his many bitches) have kindly agreed to fill in as Holly’s husbands for the week on Little Diva Energy. Left to their own devices, she and the boys enjoy a wide-ranging natter (though never so wide-ranging it’s more than one segue from a Nolan)…
