Glastonbury 2025 made headlines for more than just the music — and in this unfiltered second episode of Season 4 of The Tea with Myriam François, we dive into the political firestorm that shook the festival to its core.
Joining the conversation is Jordan Stephens — musician, writer, and one half of Rizzle Kicks — fresh off his first Glasto performance in nine years.
Together, we unpack why Palestine resonates so deeply with festivalgoers, what it means to be an artist in a time of protest and political pressure, and how music remains a powerful tool of resistance.
Jordan, who recently published his memoir Avoidance, Drugs, Heartbreak, and Dogs, also opens up about mental health, ADHD, heartbreak, as well as the emotional weight of navigating masculinity in a world that often fails young men, especially young Black men.
