A stylish new podcast, A Dose of Dandy, promises a mix of refined conversation, charm and elegance designed to celebrate life’s finer things.
Created by aesthetes Nicolas Fairford and Nathan Rollinson, who already command a large online following, with their combined Instagram accounts reaching 180,000 people and Nicolas’ weekly YouTube videos attracting more than 220,000 subscribers.
Their new podcast extends this presence into long-form audio and video, offering thoughtful musings on stately homes, seasonal entertaining, and the art of personal reinvention.
Described as the audio equivalent of “a perfectly poured cup of Earl Grey with just a dash of champagne,” the series is a mix of nostalgia with a modern sensibility. Its conversations are designed to be uplifting and inclusive, encouraging listeners to reclaim good taste and discover beauty in the everyday.
At the heart of A Dose of Dandy is the unique friendship between its two hosts. Nicolas is hearing, while Nathan is deaf, and their dynamic brings a different dimension to the podcast world.
Their bond, built on trust, humour and shared values including those in the LGBTQ+ space, offers an authentic and often eye-opening perspective on communication, connection and the art of living well.
“The podcast is for anyone who dreams of a more elegant life,” says Nicolas, whose YouTube channel and newsletter have already built him a devoted global audience. “It’s about discovering beauty in the everyday, reclaiming good taste and enjoying a touch of fun along the way.”
He added: “We wanted to create a space that feels warm, inclusive and inspiring. The fact that one of us is deaf and one is hearing brings an unexpected layer to the conversations, and we hope it shows that elegance comes in many forms, including how we connect with one another.”
The ten-week season of A Dose of Dandy begins today, 23 September, on YouTube and all podcast platforms.
