Flirting With Friendship Podcast Season 2 Launches ft. Fatboy Slim, Armin van Buuren, Chloé Caillet & More

Seth Troxler and Bill Patrick have kicked off Season 2 of Flirting With Friendship, their video-first, hour-long podcast presented and produced by StrataSonic. Returning October 13 with an opening episode featuring the hosts themselves, the 14-episode season welcomes Armin van Buuren, Chloé Caillet, Fatboy Slim, Hiroko, TOKiMONSTA, Matthew Dear, A-Trak, Steve Hogan, Kaz James, Doc Martin, Heidi Lawden, and Alan T, before closing with a finale on April 13, 2027.

Built around Troxler and Patrick’s friendship of two decades, Flirting With Friendship brings the intimacy and unpredictability of an after-hours conversation to the screen. The pair’s easy rapport, affectionate roasting, and willingness to be vulnerable give guests room to move beyond the usual career talking points, with conversations that swing between the profound and the absurd.

The show debuted in 2025, filmed in Troxler’s parents’ living room in Ibiza, with a first season featuring Róisín Murphy, Damian Lazarus, Felipe Pantone, John Acquaviva, Chris Korda, Miranda Makaroff and Pascal Moscheni, George Stavro, Marcello Burlon, and DJ Tennis. Its mix of music, spontaneous audience interaction, and candid conversation established a setting where the people behind the public personas could come into focus.

Season 2 brings together guests from across the electronic music community, extending that conversation across different generations and corners of club culture. At its heart is the same curiosity about friendship: how people find one another, what keeps them close, and what happens when they let their guard down.

Following the October 13 premiere, Armin van Buuren’s episode arrives October 20. Guest episodes then roll out every other Tuesday from November 3 through December 15, before a three-week mid-season break. The series resumes January 12, continuing fortnightly through April 6, with the finale following April 13.

Beyond the screen, Flirting With Friendship has brought its conversations to festivals including III Points and Coachella, with more live activations on the horizon.

Presented by StrataSonic, Flirting With Friendship extends Troxler and Patrick’s creative worlds beyond the touring circuit, making space for humor, vulnerability, and human connection. Season 2 will be available on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts.
