He joins the Mitch Churi Chat Show to talk about Heated Rivalry (of course), heteronormativity and internalised homophobia. All the big topics. Luke very openly and graciously chats about how his secret love of reading helped him claw his way out of gambling addiction, AND he learns about the Kinsey Scale. Mitch also discovers mid-interview that Luke has already been on The Bachelor. Grace would like to reiterate the fact that this was recorded while she was in Europe and was therefore not here to prep this interview. Follow Mitch on Instagram & TikTok! Follow Grace on Instagram ! Follow the show on TikTok! & Insta! You can also watch the full length episodes on Youtube here . This is a WhichMitch Production in collaboration with Acast.
