In this episode of We Need To Talk, YouTube phenomenon TommyInnit (Tommy Simons) opens up about the truth behind going from playing Minecraft streams in his bedroom to global fame, the lessons and warnings from Mr Beast and Logan Paul, and why 15 million subscribers couldn’t fix the things that mattered most. Tommy shares the reality of becoming a millionaire at 16, the toll that fame, loss, and constant online attention took on his mental health, and how grief, anxiety, and the pressure to keep performing nearly broke him. For the first time, he speaks openly about the worst panic attack of his life, the heartbreak of his parents’ sudden split, and how losing his friend Technoblade (Alexander) changed his world forever. From 24/7 security on tour to wearing disguises in public, Tommy reflects on the extremes of internet stardom, the jealousy and self-doubt it sparked, and why learning to disconnect from the numbers may be the hardest lesson of all. Now, through stand-up comedy, music, and building real connections away from the screen, Tommy is finding his voice again, not just as a creator, but as a person learning it’s okay not to be okay. Tommy shares: ◽ The story behind his million-pound success at 16 ◽ The lessons (and warnings) from MrBeast and Logan Paul ◽ Why Technoblade’s last message means so much to him ◽ How he’s learning to separate self-worth from views ◽ The truth about the friendships he lost along the way ◽ Why love and connection matter more than any subscriber count TommyInnit, We Need To Talk.

Fashion influencer and entrepreneur Lorna Luxe sits down with Paul for her most revealing interview yet. In this episode of We Need To Talk, Lorna opens up about the battles that shaped her - from growing up in Manchester with a fractured relationship with her father, to her struggle with food that cost her her dream job as cabin crew. She reflects on how she built from the ground up - finding connections through Instagram, building a community of over 1.5 million, launching global fashion partnerships, and creating her own successful brands. For the first time, Lorna also speaks candidly about her first relationship - with a woman she felt too ashamed to tell anyone about - and the life she’s built since with her husband John. She shares the reality of navigating a 21-year age gap and the quiet strength holding them together as John continues his battle with cancer.
