Tia and Siân also open up about learning how to be yourself in an industry that loves to put people in boxes and what it’s really like stepping into bigger presenting roles while trying not to overthink every word that comes out of your mouth.
Along the way there’s plenty of silliness, shared broadcasting trauma, and a mutual appreciation for surviving live TV without melting into the floor.

We're joined by an undeniable winner on this episode of The Final FronTia as Ginger Johnson joins Tia on the show!
Ginger has won Drag Race UK, Celebrity MasterChef and is one of the few queens who have won three challenges in a row in any of the Drag Race franchises! They're touring their new show Show Pony across the UK through-out 2026 and 2027.
On this episode of The Final FronTia, Tia and Ginger talk about the brutal reality of Snatch Game, why Drag Race is scarier than MasterChef and the real feelings that dominate a Drag Race experience.
Ginger also pulls back the curtain on what it actually feels like to walk into a competition knowing your reputation is on the line - and how deciding you’re going to win can change everything!
Along the way, there’s a chaotic quiz pitting chefs against academics, and a preview of Ginger’s upcoming tour - complete with jazz, cannon flashbacks and absolutely no promises about what kind of woman she'll be by September.

We're joined by an international drag icon on this episode of The Final FronTia! RuPaul's Drag Race UK star and Polish wonder Alexis Saint-Pete is on the show!
Only the third Polish queen to compete on Drag Race, Alexis has been a ballet dancer since the age of 4, and moved to the UK at 12 after winning a place on dance school. Talk about talent!
On this episode of The Final FronTia, Tia and Alexis talk about the rapidly growing Polish drag scene, performing in Eastern Europe, the importance of representation beyond the UK and US drag bubbles and why political drag feels so vital in places where queerness itself can be an act of resistance.
Alexis also introduces Tia to a full spread of Polish snacks - rated live on the mic in a very heavily ASMR moment - plus they talk about Drag Race Poland (manifesting!), reality TV frustrations, horror films, snack rituals, and a very questionable round of "real or fake".
