Expect convos on: Making up for dating struggles with a passion for motorsport The highs and lows of overnight fame Navigating confidence in the spotlight vs IRL romance His unexpected first date turned podcast co-host with Alicia Why not all guys are just after casual sex (and why he’s breaking the stigma) Plus: Lachy answers Sarah Lloyd’s question from the last episode and leaves one for the next guest.
