Tomorrowland Podcasts presents Fondue Friends
A heartfelt podcast series featuring Armin van Buuren, LP Giobbi and NERVO
Wednesday, 11 June 2025 - Tomorrowland & One World Radio are excited to unveil ‘Fondue Friends’, a unique podcast series featuring Dutch legend Armin van Buuren, American artist LP Giobbi and Australian twin sisters NERVO. Recorded during Tomorrowland Winter 2025 in the stunning alpine setting of Alpe d’Huez in France, this three-part series captures an exclusive fondue lunch shared by the three artists. As they open envelopes with personal, funny, and thought-provoking questions, listeners are invited into an intimate, surprising, and heartfelt conversation that dives deep into their lives – past, present, and future.
From laughter to vulnerability across three intimate episodes, ‘Fondue Friends’ offers a rare and touching glimpse into the minds and hearts of these world-renowned DJs and producers beyond stage.
Armin van Buuren: “I started this WhatsApp group – there’s 125 DJs in there. We share about the darker side of the DJ industry. We have meetings, and we organized a retreat with DJs. We do yoga, we eat vegetarian for a week, we go for walks, and we talk about the difficult parts. Not to say our job isn’t nice, because I feel blessed to do what I do. I wish there was more of a message to young people, saying – yes, the DJ world is amazing, and part of the fairytale is true, but there’s a big but. Sooner or later, every single DJ is going to run into a big wall. We can’t complain, because we do have the best job in the world. But there needs to be room for saying I feel like shit today.”
LP Giobbi: “My fiancé was wearing an LP Giobbi shirt and was showing a house to somebody. The person was like ‘oh LP Giobbi, she’s married to DJ Tennis, right? I love them!’ My partner was like ‘actually we are engaged'. That was the funniest thing ever.”
NERVO: “We were full-time songwriters before we were DJs. We will go back – we’re in the studio once a week now.”
The ‘Fondue Friends’ podcast series is part of the broader Tomorrowland Podcasts collection, which brings together a variety of immersive stories such as ‘20 Years, 20 Questions’, ‘One World Radio Cable Casts’, and ‘My Way’. These podcasts transport fans, visitors, and curious listeners into the enchanting universe of Tomorrowland. Whether unveiling behind-the-scenes moments or sharing untold narratives, each episode extends the Tomorrowland experience beyond the festival grounds – capturing its magic through words and sound.
