31 GEN 2023 · It’s the second birthday of the Reign podcast - Happy Birthday to us! Thanks for being here!
So, to celebrate I wanted to welcome back one of the podcast’s very first guests, Madelyn Cline. We first caught up after the debut season of Outer Banks aired on Netflix, and SO much has happened since then!
Madelyn has recently starred in Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery, and with the third season of Outer Banks around the corner, I wanted to chat to her about where life has taken her over the last two years.
We chat about that ‘overnight’ fame she found during the pandemic, and how that has translated into real life in 2023. We talk about self-care, learning to forgive ourselves, saying NO to things that don’t fulfil us, and dealing with change. Which is something I have always found hard to deal with - you?
There’s so much in this episode, and it’s definitely made me think about putting myself first more often!
So I hope you enjoy it, and as always if you want to get in touch I’m @JoshSmithHosts on socials - I love to chat to you! And don’t forget you can catch some of the video highlights from this episode over on my YouTube channel, just search Reign with Josh Smith.

20 DIC 2022 · Today you are invited to the Reign holiday party because this is the final episode of the year! So get your drink of choice poured and prepare to listen to Joy Sunday who is starring in the biggest show on the planet right now, Netflix’s reboot of The Addams Family, ‘Wednesday’.
If you haven’t watched Wednesday yet, the show follows the infamous Wednesday Addams (Jenna Ortega) as she joins Nevermore, an eerie institute for society’s outsiders and meets her new nemesis the Queen Bee Bianca, played by Joy. What ensues is a show dripping in drama, mystery and rivalry so it’s no surprise ‘Wednesday’ has amassed over a billion watch hours in the first three weeks of its release and has become the second most watched english speaking show on Netflix - EVER!
Joining us fresh from the show’s unprecedented success and on her podcast debut (we are honoured!) Joy tells me about how the show arrived at a tough point in her career, the intense filming process in Romania, and how playing Bianca empowered her in real life, too. Don’t worry Joy also spills the tea on *that* iconic fencing scene, the season finale AND those contact lenses too…
Joy also talks about her self love journey, how journaling has influenced her life, how the ‘Wednesday’ cast have come together to form anoffscreen family, and how she has always found the strength to keep going and never give up on her dreams. Plus there is a great rule to live by, dug from the depths of Joy’s teen journal which I absolutely love and know you will too.
I loved talking to Joy so I hope you love this episode! And as this is the final episode of the year I just wanted to say THANK YOU for listening to Reign, whether this is your first episode or one of many you have listened to, it’s so great to have you in the Reign family. I hope you have a wonderful holiday season and just remember in the new year and beyond, you have the power to reign over your life and don't forget it!

13 DIC 2022 · SCREAMS! Today we are joined by a true queen of Hollywood, Kate Hudson.
Kate has such an iconic back catalogue of movies from her rom-com era, ‘How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days’ alongside Mathew McConaughey (one of the best onscreen duos of all time - AM I RIGHT OR AM I RIGHT?!?) to ‘Bride Wars’ with fellow queen, Anne Hathaway. But it was for her scene stealing turn in ‘Almost Famous’ that Kate won a Golden Globe and was nominated for an Oscar.
Now Kate is BACK with the ‘Knives Out’ sequel, ‘Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery’ which is landing on Netflix on 23rd December. Daniel Craig returns as the super sleuth, Benoit Blanc to investigate a murder which occurs after a tech billionaire invites his friends to his private Greek island. It’s got twists, it’s got turns and Kate stars as the tone deaf, model turned questionable entrepreneur, Birdie alongside former Reign guest, Madelyn Cline, Ed Norton and Janelle Monáe.
Sitting down with one of my idols was even better than I could have imagined. In this episode Kate gets very honest and tells me about the time she had to truly face herself and do that tricky self-work.
Kate also shares some wise lessons that she has learnt from one of the great teachers in her life, her mother Goldie Hawn. It’s stuff that I think we all need to hear! Kate also talks to be about the changing representation of women on screen and how much further we need to go.

6 DIC 2022 · I am BEYOND EXCITED that we are joined by my OG Idol, Billie Piper, who made the first album I ever bought - fun fact!
Believe it or not, Billie first burst into our lives 25 years ago - so this is technically the Silver Jubilee of Queen Billie, which should be a national holiday, right? As a 15 year old popstar, Billie became the youngest person ever to go straight to number one with the eternal bop, Because We Want To before going on to land two more number one singles with Girlfriend and Day & Night. How her hit, Honey 2 The Bee wasn’t ever a number one is still an injustice that haunts me until this day. But here we are…
Billie then turned to acting with the comeback of Doctor Who starring as the Doctor’s assistant, Rose Tyler opposite Christopher Eccleston and David Tennant and The Secret Diary of A Call Girl. Billie even continued to set records with her new career path by winning all six of the possible best stage actress awards, including an Olivier award, for her stage debut in Yerma.
Now Billie is back with the second season of the BAFTA nominated TV show, I Hate Suzie, which she co-created with Succession writer, Lucy Prebble. If you haven’t watched the first season of the show, it follows the former child star, Suzie Pickles as her life implodes when private images of her leak online. And let me tell you RIGHT NOW, the second season is just as good as the first with more twists and turns for our anti-hero, Suzie. I Hate Suzie Too is available on Sky Atlantic and streaming service NOW from 20 December.
Today Billie joins us to talk about being a horny dancer (same here!) - tis the season, after all - and how exploring anxiety and mental health on I Hate Suzie has impacted her own well being.
Billie also opens up about how seeing her 14 year old son grow up has made her reflect further on her own teenage stardom and the advice she wishes she could go back and give her popstar self. She also shares some great words about balance and pressure which I think we all need to hear and will relate to, and about finding a new level of confidence turning 40 this year.
Billie Piper is still THE coolest person on the planet in my mind, so I hope you love this chat just as much as me as it really shows just how this icon has managed to stay relevant for a quarter of a century across so many disciplines.
If you have missed any of the episodes of Reign Season six go check them out now - we’ve been joined by some truly inspiring people from Chloe Grace Moretz to Lena Dunham.

29 NOV 2022 · Today we are joined by Chloë Grace Moretz and this episode is all about setting personal boundaries, stopping people pleasing, letting go of people who no longer serve YOU and saying “f**k it!” Now that’s the spirit!
Believe it or not but Chloë has been acting since the age of 5, and now at 25 years old has already got 50 acting credits on her CV (talk about booked and busy!) including the epic ‘Kick-Ass’ movies, the chilling ‘Carrie’, the comedy hit, ‘Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising’ and the epic LGBTQIA+ movie, ‘The Miseducation of Cameron Post’.
Now she is starring in the blockbuster new Amazon Prime Video TV show, ‘The Peripheral’. Adapted for the screen from William Gibson’s sci-fi novel, the show follows Chloë’s character Flynne, as she unearths through gaming, a connection to an alternative reality with a dark future. The drama is brilliant but you might get a headache trying to figure out WTAF is going on - if you are anything like me!
I have also always admired Chloë’s advocacy for LGBTQIA+ rights and encouraging people to get out there and vote but I wasn’t quite prepared for how much I was going to love talking to Chloë. Buckle up for a lot of laughter and some great life lessons in this episode!
Today Chloë talks about growing up in the entertainment industry and the amount of reverse ageism and sexism she has faced in her career to date. Now, firmly in her own power and voice, Chloë also shares some amazing words on building boundaries and letting go of ‘people pleasing,' and relationships that no longer serve you. That is something I have ALWAYS struggled with so this turned into quite the therapy session for me, so I hope it helps you too!
We also talk about the sheer power of Miley Cryus’s song ‘The Climb’ - it’s one of the great underrated classics of our time, let’s be honest - and Chloë shares how she is a certified gamer in real life too, who loves to, ‘f**k s**t up!’ Watch out Super Mario!
I love Chloë’s new ‘f**k it,’ ethos for life so I hope it also inspires you to let go, and do what is right for YOU in every given situation.
If you have missed any of the episodes of Reign Season six go check them out now - we’ve been joined by Stranger Things star, Natalia Dyer, Young Royals stars Edvin Ryding and Omar Rudberg, Lena Dunham and many more inspirational people.

24 NOV 2022 · You wait for one ‘Young Royals’ star to come on the podcast and TWO come on the podcast back to back! So get your crowns ready because today, we are joined by Simon himself, Omar Rudberg!
In case you are new to the ‘Young Royals’ hype (lucky YOU, you have two epic seasons to binge for the very first time) the Swedish Netflix TV show follows Prince Wilhelm, played by Edvin Ryding, as he meets a new love interest, Simon when he is sent to boarding school. It is the LGBTQIA+ show we have long needed on our screens and it’s no wonder so many people have fallen in love with the show - myself included!
Now, fresh from THAT season two cliffhanger, Omar joins us to talk about how the show’s intimate scenes have pushed him out of his comfort zone and made him find a whole new level of self love within himself and with his own body image. Isn’t that wonderful to hear?
Omar also shares some powerful words about breaking down masculine stereotypes and how his amazing relationship with Edvin Ryding onscreen has empowered him off-screen too. It’s empowered him so much that Omar is not afraid to call out coffee breath when he smells it during kissing scenes. I couldn’t agree more!
If you love ‘Young Royals’ and missed our last episode with Omar’s co-star, Edvin Ryding then run to the last episode to listen now! And if you love a LGBTQIA+ inclusive TV show and are ‘Heartstopper’ fans as well, last season we were joined by the show’s Joe Locke and Kit Connor, so check those podcast episodes too!
As someone who has always had a very up and down relationship with my own body image I really love what Omar has to say on the topic, so I hope you find this episode just as comforting as I do. I also hope you keep on listening and finding the power to Reign in your own lives. And if you love this episode, please get in touch (follow me across social media @joshsmithhosts), I love hearing from you. Love, Josh xxx
22 NOV 2022 · You have NO idea how many times I have been asked to get the leads of Netflix’s hit TV show, ‘Young Royals’ on the podcast, and today it’s finally happening as we are joined by Prince Wilhelm himself, the wonderful Edvin Ryding! AND he’s even better in real life, so get excited!
In case you aren’t already part of the ‘Young Royals’ fan base, the smash hit Swedish Netflix TV follows Prince Wilhelm as he is sent to boarding school. But once there he falls for his classmate, Simon, played by Omar Rudberg, and the drama ensues. It’s not only a powerful love story, ‘Young Royals’ is an important piece of television about finding yourself and taking pride in your identity. And when I say you are in for a treat, it's got a 100% rotten tomatoes rating to prove it!
Fresh from the show’s huge second season, Edvin talks about THAT season finale cliffhanger (I still cry just thinking about it - ANYONE ELSE?!?!) and how Wilhelm’s journey with his mental health and anxiety has encouraged Edvin to open up and talk about his own struggles in real life.
Edvin - who started acting at just five years old - also talks about embracing his differences and shares a beautiful piece of advice about being the person he needed when he was younger. It’s a statement I think we all need to live by because we are all out here doing it for our younger selves in a way, aren’t we?
If this episode isn’t enough Young Royals content for you then get yourselves READY as on the next Reign podcast episode we are joined by Edvin’s co-star, Omar Rudberg - don’t say I don’t treat you on this podcast! Oh, and in case you are new here and LOVE a good LGBTQIA+ Netflix show, check the episodes with ‘Heartstopper’ stars, Joe Locke and Kit Connor.
I hope you love this episode just as much as I do and I hope you keep on listening and finding the power to Reign in your own lives. If you love this episode, please get in touch (follow me across social media @joshsmithhosts), I love hearing from you. Love, Josh xxx
17 NOV 2022 · This special episode is a reminder, in the face of so much hateful rhetoric from government officials, that refugees need our allyship, not our prejudice.
Today we are joined by one of the most inspirational people I have ever met, Yusra Mardini who has overcome what are unimaginable obstacles for most of us, but which are daily obstacles for so many fleeing prejudice and war the world over.
In March 2011 when civil war broke out in Syria, Yusra - trained by her father - had dreams of becoming an Olympic swimmer. But by August 2015 she and her sister, Sarah had no choice but to leave their family behind and undertake a journey which no one should have to.
Their perilous journey to Europe saw the sisters fly to Istanbul before paying human traffickers to take them to Greece, and overland to Germany.
What occurred in the sea en route to Greece is beyond harrowing. With 18 people on board, the dingy started to sink and for three hours Yusra and Sarah had no option but to swim alongside the boat.
Not only did Yusra make it to Germany, but after finding a new coach, she signed up to represent the refugee team at the 2016 Rio Olympics; a true testament to human determination. She went on to carry the Olympic flag for the Refugee team at the opening ceremony of the Tokyo Olympics and has since been named a UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador to help spread awareness of the plight of refugees.
It’s no wonder the Mardini sister's story has now been made into one of the most moving films I have ever seen, The Swimmers, which is now available on Netflix.
The Swimmers is a timely story everyone needs to watch and even more pressing when you consider Sarah Mardini could be facing decades in prison after returning to Lebos to help vulnerable people arriving on Greek shores.
I hope you find this powerful conversation with Yusra just as inspiring as I did and if you do want to find out more about how you can help refugees the world over please visit choose.love.
I also hope you keep on listening and finding the power to Reign in your own lives, too. If you love this episode, please get in touch (follow me across social media @joshsmithhosts), I love hearing from you. Love, Josh xxx
15 NOV 2022 · Today we are joined by Ophelia Lovibond! This chat has everything - from a discussion of prosthetic penises to her Mum’s love for a willy montage, to tackling a very serious and meaningful topic: the need for bystanders to safely step in during moments of sexual harrassment - both verbally and physically - after Ophelia stepped in to prevent another woman being upskirted on the tube.
The conversation was prompted when we discussed the sexist media treatment of Carrie Johnson, who Ophelia is currently portraying in Sky Atlantic TV show, This England. The show, which also stars Kenneth Branagh as Boris Johnson, is an intimate and - at times troubling - look at 10 Downing Street at the outbreak of the Coronavirus and the key characters making decisions at the time.
Discussions around sexism and sexual harrassment are front and centre in Ophelia’s other new show, Minx which after launching on HBO Max in the USA is now finally out in the UK on Paramount+. Ophelia plays Joyce, who after persuading her publisher (played by New Girl’s Jake Johnson), creates the first erotic magazine for women - set to the backdrop of 1970s LA. Ophelia is EXCEPTIONAL in the show and it is thought provoking and laugh-out-loud comedy at its best. Minx is almost as funny as the real life stories Ophelia shares from the set, namely a stunning story about prosthetic penises - a first for this podcast, believe it or not!
I loved talking to Ophelia and I think she raises so many important points - especially during our discussion of everyday sexism - so I hope this episode resonates with you and gives you strength to speak up if you experience it or witness it. I hope you keep on listening and finding the power to Reign in your own lives, too. If you love this episode, please get in touch (follow me across social media @joshsmithhosts), I love hearing from you. Love, Josh xxx
8 NOV 2022 · Today we are joined by the self-made pop sensation, Madison Beer!
(TW: this episode references suicide and suicidal thoughts)
Madison has amassed a jaw dropping 4.2 billion streams across her catalogue globally since she was discovered by Justin Beiber at the age of 13, when he posted a clip of her singing Etta James on his Instagram. Shortly afterwards Madison signed a major recording contract but by just 16 year-old she found herself being dropped.
But that never stopped Madison, she used her music to help her and share her own unique voice and story by releasing her own independent music. Her debut EP ‘As She Pleases’ even made history by becoming the first independently released female artist to score a top 30 position in the US Top 40 chart.
Let's get real, it’s bop after bop when it comes to Madison and as she releases her new single, Showed Me (How I Fell In Love With You) she sits down with me to reflect on her remarkable, determined journey.
This episode comes with a trigger warning as there is a discussion of suicide and suicidal thoughts as Madison opens up about her journey with her mental health when she was 19 years old which saw her contemplate taking her own life whilst she was struggling with ‘failure’ and trauma. Now with the help of therapy, and still battling with PTSD, she is able to bravely share her story with us.
Madison also reflects on the sexism that still persists in the music industry and shares some teasers about her much anticipated album. Plot spoiler: it’s going to be a teary listen.
I hope you are just as inspired by Madison’s honesty as I was - it takes real courage to be this honest - and I hope you keep on listening and finding the power to Reign in your own lives. If you love this episode, please get in touch (follow me across social media @joshsmithhosts), I love hearing from you. Love, Josh xxx
