#205 Gail Porter (Presenter)

By Matt Stocks

This week, former Top Of The Pops & Big Breakfast presenter Gail Porter returns for her second appearance on Life In The Stocks. Gail is the subject and star of the new BAFTA winning documentary Being Gail Porter, which is one of the most harrowing, affecting & inspiring films I've ever seen.


Gail's life story is incredible; she's a true survivor. She's an absolute sweetheart as well. If you haven't already heard our first podcast together, go back and listen to Episode 059 from June 2018. Once you have heard that one, dive in on this one, recorded on March 23, 2021 - the day Gail turned 50. We discuss life, love, loss, friendship, family, misogyny in the media, mental health, and a whole lot more.


I'm very pleased to say that Life In The Stocks has a new sponsor: Radical Clothing UK. Be sure to follow them on Facebook & Instagram (@radicalclothinguk) and check out their website www.radicalclothinguk.com


The brand aims to fuse a love of music, skateboarding, snowboarding & surfing and the fashion & lifestyle that surrounds these subcultures with a commitment to raising awareness of mental health & wellbeing. I couldn't be more proud to be the official ambassador for this radical clothing company, and I look forward to working and collaborating on lots of exciting and worthwhile projects with them down the line.
