Summary
This week Pete's joined by everyone’s favourite nan, Grime Gran - and trust us, she does not hold back... the unexpected duo you didn't know you needed. From her East End roots to unexpected social media fame, Grime Gran sits down with Pete to reveal how it all started, why authenticity is her secret weapon, and what it’s really like going viral later in life. She spills ALL on her favourite celebrity encounters and opens up about love and loss. But it wouldn’t be Grime Gran without a bit of chaos… 👀 There’s a hilarious Gen Z slang challenge (that goes completely off the rails), brutally honest takes on modern dating vs “back in her day,” and some very strong opinions on romance, chivalry, and the cost of living today. 00:00 Introduction 00:55 Meeting Grime Gran 03:17 How it all started 05:15 The power of authenticity 08:40 Favourite celebrity interviews 10:14 Social Media and Fame 10:58 Reality TV opportunities 11:45 East end roots and family 13:24 Life after loss 16:43 Gen Z slang challenge 26:04 Dating then and now 30:10 Romance and chivalry 33:55 The cost of living 36:05 Growing up then vs now 38:27 Life Advice: Do what you want 39:53 Closing thoughts... — 📩📮 To get in touch with the podcast, email [email protected] (great e-mail, we know) — 💌 Sign up to our newsletter for exclusive updates, behind-the-scenes content, and first access to announcements: https://staying-relevant-newsletter-04a632.beehiiv.com — 🩶 Follow us on Instagram | TikTok | Youtube | @stayingrelevantpodcast — 🎬 Follow SR Productions on Instagram for more from the team: https://www.instagram.com/stayingrelevantproductions/ — 📚 ORDER the Staying Relevant Book: https://linktr.ee/StayingRelevantBook — 🛍️ SHOP Staying Relevant Merchandise…
