f You Don’t Ask, You Don’t Get | Gabriel Clark on Tip Toe

Silicon Valley scandals, bloody proms, Hollywood dreams, and mothers looking a little suspicious—sweetie, we have questions. Boots Bueno & Coco Alexander Bueno unpack You Can See Everything, debating Elizabeth Holmes, Nathan Fielder’s uncomfortable brilliance, and Amanda Seyfried’s unforgettable performance. Where does conviction end and delusion begin? Our love for I Play Rocky takes that conversation into another corner: believing in yourself when nobody else will. Then we dive into Carrie, Crystal Lake, and PHONY—with flowers for Linda Cardellini, Connie Britton, and the emerging talent keeping us glued to our screens. Plus, Mahaela Park is coming to the CocoSphere! PHONY fans: drop your questions, theories, and character obsessions below. We also celebrate our beautiful Tiptoe guests—Shakeel Kimotho, Gabriel Clark, and Luyanda Unati Lewis-Nyawo—and the power of showing up for our community. Stay curious. Stay fabulous. Let’s be too many things together. Spoilers ahead.

“Don’t be an asshole.” A simple ISM. A powerful place to start. Luyanda Unati Lewis-Nyawo, who plays Judy in Russell T Davies’ Tip Toe, joins Boots and Coco for a funny, outspoken, and deeply compassionate conversation about chosen family, queer joy, and making solidarity something people can feel. From Judy’s protective mama-bear energy to the difference between calling yourself accepting and actually showing up, we explore how Tip Toe reflects our world—and asks us to take responsibility for each other. Luyanda shares why community begins wherever the love is, how everyday actions can challenge isolation, and a beautiful reminder for anyone still finding their way: “We all bloom in our own time. There is no rush.” Plus, Bootsie’s Lightning Round delivers castmate mischief, British flirting, Doechii, and a verdict on which host belongs behind the bar. Our community has no borders. Let’s be too many things together.

What does it mean to act beautifully rather than simply look beautiful? Tiptoe star Shakeel Kimotho joins Coco & Boots for a soulful conversation about queer love, trans representation, chosen family, and the courage to stand up for one another. From her portrayal of Hannah in Russell T. Davies’ Tiptoe to her philosophy of Soulism, Shakeel brings extraordinary warmth, wisdom, and a little Beyoncé to the COCOsphere. An episode about being unapologetically yourself, finding gratitude in becoming, and remembering that we’re all connected. Let’s be too many things together. Photo by Liv Hedges

If You Don’t Ask, You Don’t Get | Gabriel Clark on Tip Toe “If you don’t ask, you don’t get.” Gabriel Clark enters the CocoSphere with an ISM about creating opportunities—and the courage to stop shrinking yourself. The actor behind Mikey in Russell T Davies’ Tip Toe joins Boots and Coco for a candid, cheeky conversation about being queer, working class, and Northern, finding a way into the arts, and why some of his biggest opportunities began with simply asking. We explore the power of speaking up for your community and how Tip Toe brings love, pride, homophobia, transphobia, and discrimination into sharp focus. Gabriel’s description of the series as a “call to arms” runs through it all: an invitation to wake up, pay attention, and show up for one another. Plus, Bootsie’s Lightning Round brings castmate mischief and a little across-the-pond flirtation. Still becoming. Already enough. Let’s be too many things together. Watch Tip Toe on STARZ in the US.
