Nick Grimshaw spent a chunk of Friday's show building up to a moment years in the making: Annie Mac's now-infamous clip asking "who the hell are Geese?" He explained that Annie "doesn't like it as much as I do" and had grown tired of hearing the clip played daily whenever Geese or frontman Cameron Winter got airtime. After "much discussion, compromise," Nick revealed Annie has agreed he can play it once a year, declaring, "That is it until 2027." He used the rule to mark Cameron Winter's new live album, recorded at Carnegie Hall and filmed by Paul Thomas Anderson, which premiered at the New York Film Festival.
The big guest was photographer Jurgen Teller, promoting his work in the Tate Britain show The 90s: Art and Fashion. Teller told Nick his career began almost by accident, grabbing his cousin's camera on a childhood trip to Italy: "I am able to see for the first time in my life." He also recalled touring with Nirvana just before Nevermind broke, calling it "a life changing moment," and shared a story about ending up in Grace Jones's hotel room with Kate Moss, who was "wearing this Philip Treacy hat."
Film and TV critic Julia Raeside filled in for a regular guest, telling Nick that Rhianna Dhillon "is not well at the moment" and sending her love on air. Julia recommended Prime Video's feminist Carrie remake and the small British film Extra Geography, calling it "beautifully short" and "very absorbing."
