Okay Diva

This week on Okay Diva, we're diving deep into romance tropes — specifically the ones that live rent-free in queer cinema and absolutely wreck us emotionally every single time. Brock and I break down our favourite love story archetypes: forbidden love, enemies to lovers, childhood friends to lovers, the slow burn, the miscommunication chaos, and everything in between. We talk which tropes hit...

Happy New Year divas 🎆 Episode 31 is our official New Year reset — which means goals, aspirations, pop culture predictions, and a terrifying amount of confidence. This week, Brock and I sit down to talk what we’re manifesting for the year ahead, the films and music we’re already emotionally invested in, and the artists we’re betting everything on for 2026. Vision boards were implied. Delusion was...

Alright divas, it’s officially our Christmas episode AND our 30th episode , which feels fake but here we are 🎄✨ This week Brock and I are leaning fully into festive chaos as we celebrate Episode 30 of Okay Diva with a very diva-coded Christmas special. No syllabus, no Divaology homework — just end-of-year vibes, holiday reflections, unserious takes, and whatever tangents feel correct in the mome...

This week on Okay Diva, we continue to wrap up the year — and this week we cover the best movies and TV shows of 2025. Brock and I go through the films and series that defined our year: the undeniable slays, the surprise hits, the moments that lived rent-free in our brains, and the ones we absolutely will not stop talking about. It’s taste, cinema and insane cultural moments. 🎬 Year-end rankings...

Sam finally takes control of the podcast — and immediately accuses Rihanna of having a lisp, attempts to expose Brock’s most evil personality traits, and declares normiecore a punishable offence. This episode goes off the rails within minutes. What was meant to be a “planned discussion” turns into a full diva inquisition: pop culture allegations with no proof, moral grandstanding, getting even ins...

This week’s mid-week bonus episode is sponsored by absolutely nothing except the fact that I skulled an OxyShred before recording and unlocked a level of hyper-clarity nobody was prepared for — least of all Brock. Brock tried to lightly roast me, which accidentally activated my Hookup Lore Dump Mode , and suddenly I’m telling stories I’ve kept buried deeper than my savings account. Plus: the unfil...

We let Spotify do the talking and the receipts are iconic. This week Brock and I unseal our Spotify Wrapped and — surprise — the algorithm gagged us with the truth. We go track-by-track through our top genres, the songs we looped in secret, and artist obsessions who dominated our year. Sam’s hot take energy? Entirely fuelled by that theatrically chaotic pop genius who made cow-core a mood and who'...

This week on Okay Diva, we’re entering our Pop Culture Double Feature Era — because both Stranger Things and Wicked Part 2: For Good drop this week, and we simply had to open our big diva mouths about it. We kick things off with a full Wicked Part One recap: the slays, the choices, the wigs, the moments that lived rent free, and the moments that should’ve stayed in the drafts. Then we dive headfir...

This week on Okay Diva, we go on a full ass ✈️ Melbourne side quest — and honestly? It almost broke us girls BUT it definitely healed us, rewired our neurons and tested our standards all at once. I tell all on directing a music video at THEE Round the Twist lighthouse, GAG. It was a peak childhood full circle MOMENT. It fr had me asking for the millionth time “how is this my life?”. Then Brock and...

This week on Okay Diva , Brock and I go absolutely feral as we battle it out to create the definitive Top 10 Comedy Shows of All Time. I brought my list, he brought his, and honestly… neither of us came to play nice. We pitch, we defend, we scream-laugh, and we absolutely drag each other’s taste. I accuse Brock of being basic, he accuses me of being niche to the point of delusion — and somewhere i...

This week… we enter the conspiracy bunker sisters. Babes — has the thought ever crossed your mind, 'when did the world get so bleak?'. What if the world used to be more colourful on purpose? We’re diving into the theory that the shadow government drained vibrancy from culture to mute creativity, kill rebellion and keep people docile, neutral and beige. We get nostaligic on the pop culture...

It’s Divaween babe 🎃 And this week we’re doing something truly terrifying: ranking our Top 10 Horror Films of ALL TIME. From slashers to psychological torment to camp cult classics — we dissect the genre the way divas dissect haters: brutally and with taste. We debate scream queens, argue about what really makes a horror iconic, and unpack the films that traumatised us in the BEST ways growing up...

The veil is thinning, the vibes are off (or maybe on), and the divas are getting spiritual. This week, Sam and Brock dive head-first into the history of psychics, mediums, and those who claim to talk to the other side — and, of course, ask the most important question of all: would a true diva ever reincarnate as anything less than iconic? We get into it — the rise and fall of spiritual leaders, wh...

This week, the divas are off the syllabus and back on their bullshit. 💅 Episode 19 is a return to our fuckass roots — chaotic, unserious, and a little bit philosophical (but only by accident). We’re talking cunty veggies 🥦, the art of performing (on stage and in life), and why discomfort is the unspoken price of true friendship and community. It’s giving chaotic healing. It’s giving delusional i...

The divas have always been the blueprint — and this week, we’re proving it. 💅 In the final chapter of Why Month , Sam and Brock take a glam deep dive into the cultural, historical, and downright iconic moments where divas changed the world. From music to politics, pop culture to protest — the ripple effect of a true diva is undeniable. This episode is part history lesson, part fanfare, and part c...

What comes first — the confidence or the diva? The truth is, you can’t have one without the other. In this episode, we break down the Confidence Philosophy: how confidence shapes a diva, and how being a diva, in turn, creates even more confidence. They’re separate forces, but crucially connected — a cycle that fuels power, presence, and unapologetic self-belief.👑 Confidence makes a diva. A diva c...

Welcome to class, divas-in-training. 💅 In this week’s episode, we’re breaking down the Top Ten Diva Qualities you need to adopt if you want to stop playing background character and start living in the spotlight. From setting unapologetic standards to serving main-character confidence, these are the non-negotiables that make a diva… a diva. Expect sass, story-time, and maybe even a diva test to se...

Alright divas, syllabus check — we’ve spent the past month defining what a diva is, breaking down their DNA inside and out, and even battling it out with the poor neglected divos. But now it’s time to get personal. In this episode, we ask the big question: why do we even want to be divas in the first place? Is it about power, presence, survival, or just wanting to serve main character energy 24/7?...

The month of “What is a Diva?” comes to a close with the ultimate face-off: Divas vs. Divos. This week, Sam and Brock ask the hard questions: What even is a Divo? Does it carry the same weight as Diva? Should we bring it back into the pop culture dictionary — or let it die a quiet death in the archives? From opera houses to modern meme culture, we’re pulling apart whether “Divo energy” stacks up a...

Alright divas, our diva studies continue — and this week we’re going deeper 😩. If last episode was about the external DNA of a diva (the look, the walk, the energy you can spot from across the room), this one is all about the internal qualities that actually fuel that energy. What’s going on in a diva’s head? What inner traits, values, and unshakable mindset allow them to step into the spotlight...

Alright divasssss, we’re officially in our rebrand era — new format, new focus, same #Divalicious energy. Every episode now has: 💅 Diva Moment (chaos counts as curriculum) 📚 Diva Case Study (our newest classroom assignment) ✨ Main Topic : The DNA of a Diva This week: What is a Diva?

The divas are getting academic. 📚✨In the first episode of our new Divatology 101: What, When, Where, Why, Who & How series, we sit down to finally answer the most obvious question: what is a diva? From opera houses to pop icons, from dramatic tantrums to divine feminine power — the word “diva” has shape-shifted through history, and we’re unpacking it all in true Okay Diva style.💅 Where did...

Before the Instagram grid, before TikTok trauma-dumping — there were online playgrounds for chaotic, unmonitored, glitter-covered kids. In this week’s episode, we dive headfirst into the video games, chat rooms, and pixelated platforms that raised us — and ask the real question: Where did all the fun go? We unpack the lost worlds of childhood internet, the death of virtual freedom, and how those g...

The divas are fighting, and it’s not cute. Or… maybe it is. In Episode 9 of Okay Diva , tensions rise, claws come out, and the girls get physical as Sam and Brock finally crack. Whether it's unresolved diva drama, filthy shade, or just being too iconic to coexist — one thing's for sure: Shantay, You Stay Mad. We get messy. We get loud. We drag each other. And we question whether this podca...
