Radio 1's Matt and Mollie: I’m finding my voice! Back yourself like you back your mate

Radio 1's Matt and Mollie: I’m finding my voice! Back yourself like you back your mate

Author: Fearne Cotton March 9, 2026 Duration: 48:22

You wouldn’t talk to your best mate in the critical way you talk to yourself. For Radio One DJs Matt Edmondson and Mollie King, their friendship has made them both believe in themselves more.


In this chat with Fearne, Matt and Mollie talk about the insecurities they have, and how freeing it is to realise no one else thinks those things about you. For Mollie, having children has helped her be a lot kinder to herself too.


Fearne is less bothered about ruffling feathers in the workplace than she used to be, and shares advice on how to confidently speak your mind, and they all wonder why everyone’s trying to be ‘cool’. What does that even mean?!


Plus, was it Matt or Mollie who put Fearne and her Radio One show on their vision board back in the day...?


You can listen to Matt and Mollie’s new podcast, Novel Idea, now!
