Really?
Yeah.
Have you been talking to Ronnie Size again?
Yeah, I had a lot of iconic junglists,
DJs, producers, MCs,

of the Lissa Bitch theme tune.
I'm joking.
It was Iona and Clara Paget.
Big hardcore junglists. Hardcore junglists. I'm joking. It was Iona and Clara Paget. Big hardcore junglers.
Hardcore junglers.
Actually, yes.
Mothers.
Both mothers, but hardcore junglers.
And they appreciate the theme tune to Miss Me.

That's all I wanted to say.
I don't understand.

welcome lily to listen bitch Welcome everyone to Listen Bitch.
I could do with a little bit of Listen Bitch today.
This week's theme that we're all discussing together in a safe space is...
Ambition.
Ambition.
Can't wait to hear these questions.
Ambition, right?
Just dropped in to see what condition my ambition is in. No, you have to replace that
with ambition. Just dropped in to see what condition my ambition was in. That's good.
That's exactly what I just did. Sorry. Look at me. Look at me stepping on your artistry toes.
I am sorry. That won't happen again. Thanks. Let's everyone stay in their lane.
As if we didn't learn anything from last week's.
Jesus, talk about staying in lanes.
Let's see what condition everyone's ambition is in.
Hi, Lily and Makita.
This is Alicia from Derbyshire.
Miss Me is absolutely the highlight of my week.
So thank you very much for entertaining us.
You both achieved a huge amount in your careers
at a relatively early age.
So with that said,
how have your ambitions changed over time?
There you go.
There's some validation that you were looking for.
There you go.
Highlight of her week.
That's very nice to hear, isn't it?
That's very nice to hear.
God, I don't think I've ever been the highlight of anyone's week that feels really good you're the highlight of my week
wow thanks Alicia for a great question how has my ambitions changed over time it's interesting
you said to me on holiday at Christmas you said I don't really have goals I just if something
if something interests me I do it and I was like what do you mean I don't really have goals. I just, if something, if something interests me,
I do it. And I was like, what do you mean? You don't have a strategic plan with aims and goals
and enlisted ticket. And you're like, no, no, I don't. I'm a bit of a coaster. I guess my ambition
is just to like, keep my house. I have like this, um, this like image that's haunted me since I was a child which is
basically you know the pigeon lady from home alone oh yeah misunderstood yeah I feel like that is my
future what my image is me like pushing along the trolley with all my Chanel handbags and my like
Brit award in it and then just sort of like yapping the lyrics of LDN
at anyone who will listen to me.
Oh my God, that is so depressing.
I can't believe you'd give that kind of feature to yourself.
What a gift to give yourself.
So my ambition is just for that not to happen.
And anything else is a bonus.
To not become the pigeon lady from Home Alone 2.
Fine. She was very misunderstood because actually she was kind. To not become the pigeon lady from Home Alone 2.
Fine.
She was very misunderstood because actually she was kind.
And in the end, her and Kevin become quite close.
Yeah, she's the one that helps him.
She's the one that helps him.
So even if you became her, I'm sure you'd still have a kind heart.
I do have a kind heart, but I just don't want to be misunderstood or judged like she was in the beginning.
I don't really care about where she ends up.
I don't want to be who she is on face value.
But this is interesting.
You feel misunderstood like the pigeon lady in Home Alone 2.
Okay, let's not.
I haven't had therapy for four weeks and I'm very vulnerable.
Okay, I will just go there.
I'll give it to you all.
I know you will but what I wanted to say is that's a great way of me understanding a little more oh we're glad to
give you that thanks help me not become the pigeon lady from home alone too anyway tell us about your
ambitions how they've changed since pop world since pop world bloody ages ago i think my ambition was to just get a job again for
a long time i was like i just but it was interesting i was like i just need to be on screen again i
need to be on screen again because i had about seven years where i wasn't in my late sort of
early 30s late 20s and um but then i realized once i did get back on screen that what I wanted was to
work again actually work it's quite a nice feeling it was nice to be reminded that I do actually love
my work very lucky never thought I'd get a job that I was good at that I loved
and have a really long time doing it I feel I do feel I do feel really lucky it's a very very
privileged position to be in, isn't it?
To be able to do something that you love. It really is. I think the older I get, the more I
realise that. Thank you for that question. It's good to bloody remind yourself every now and then.
Can we have another question, please? Hi, Makita and Lily. Loving the podcast.
Just a quick question on the subject of ambition.
Is being overambitious the downfall of our generation? As a 44-year-old woman growing up
in the girl power 90s of you can have it all and do it all, are we now a product of that?
We're an overworked,ressed underpaid anxious depressed generation who
haven't quite made it as we'd hoped asking for a friend also as two women who have made it in
quotation marks is it all it's cracked up to be what would you be doing now if you hadn't been
so ambitious and would you be happy thanks love you lots bye steph thank you steph in whitley bay
for that god steph that that hit
me in quite a few places thank you is it all that it's cracked up to be what having success
yeah but i still think that like the patriarchy for one of a better you know term still manages
to like put us in our box i mean i actually was looking at our home page for the podcast and i
had a little sneaky
look at some of the reviews and one of them said like oh these two talking about you know stuff
that they're not qualified to talk about and I was like even though it's not really talking about us
as women there is like a layer of like misogyny attached to it it's like how many fucking men are
there out there just wanging on about shit they know absolutely nothing about and it's okay?
I feel like with women, it's like you're allowed to have success, but you have to really be able to back it up.
Very interesting point.
I also, what the fuck qualifies anyone to have an opinion on anything?
I think opinion is a right of everyone and it's important to be able to debate things in this world together. I think if everyone felt
like they had to be qualified to have an opinion, no one would fucking have one.
No, but there's a level of like, you know, well, if we're going to let two women have a like
podcast to talk about things, they better have like degrees in those subjects. So no,
we're just us. We're just us having a chat. It's okay.
But I feel like men are allowed to occupy forums like that with no questions asked and no one's going,
what are your credentials?
Yeah.
You know, because their credentials are their ball sacks full of semen.
Sorry.
These are my credentials.
These are my credentials.
I'm talking about my legs, not...
Steph from Whitney Bear, I'd also like to say 44,
and I know you're joking a bit about like
you know feeling like you haven't achieved all the things you were told you could or should have
20 years ago but i really think that the true success in life is like genuinely oh god how do
i say it's not being cheesy it's genuinely one's character and like who you are in the world not
the things you do i definitely think if you you try and make success just the things you do,
you feel quite empty.
It doesn't fill up the right cup within.
For me anyway.
I hate to bring it back to the men versus women thing again.
Bring it back to the patriarchy.
But one more.
I hate to do it but i also feel like for women our character and how we hold ourselves when
we are you know in the workplace or whatever is something that people are really focused on where
where they aren't with men i remember being in the studio once and this uh producer that i was
working with had been working with another female
artist and he was he was like oh yeah she's a nightmare and I was like hmm what made her a
nightmare and he said oh she just was really specific about like what how she wanted to sound
and like and I was like oh yeah that sounds like a nightmare that someone would have a very clear
idea of how they wanted to be represented and then then I asked him, if a man came in with that same attitude, would you feel the same?
And he sat, to his credit, he sat there and he thought about it and he went,
actually, if a man came in here and didn't have those specific requests,
I wouldn't have any respect for him.
And I was like, interesting that.
So you're a misogynist.
You know, in that context, there's a woman that is ambitious and has an idea
of how she wants to sound and how she wants to come across. But that is interpreted as like,
she's difficult. 100% difficult. I can't stand difficult. I got called difficult a lot. And I
was 18. I wasn't difficult. I just knew what was shit and what wasn't. And I was fearless because
I was a kid. So I was just like, I don't want to say that word.
I don't speak like that.
And people would roll their eyes.
Yeah, roll their eyes and like,
oh my God, Makita has another issue.
It's like, it's not an issue.
I just have an opinion and I'm starting to learn
what I think feels right in this particular job.
I don't know.
It's tricky.
It's really tricky.
I find it really difficult being called difficult.
it's tricky. It's really tricky. I find it really difficult being called difficult.
Just when you want something to be of a certain level and you are seen as someone who doesn't know what they're talking about to create excellence. And sometimes I really do. I've
been doing this a really long time and people don't give you the space because they think
you're just being difficult. And it's like, no, I just want it to be brilliant.
And I promise you, I think I know how we can get there.
Saying that, I do think I have been difficult at times.
Me too.
I've definitely also been a little tricky, but that's because I didn't feel heard on set.
Anyway, getting back to the beginning of Steph's question,
I do believe that we were sort of sold a bit of a lie in terms of like you can be whatever you want you can do whatever it is
that's you know you desire it's like that's just plainly not true there's just not enough
opportunities I don't think so but isn't it important to live a life like you can and not
live a life like you can't do anything anything is is possible. I don't think that's true. I think that you and I have had very unique upbringing in the sense that
we're both brought up in London, West London. And in terms of, you know, the business that we went
into, which was, you know, media and culture for whatever you want to call it, we were very much
in close proximity to, you know, the central hub of that, youwise in terms of where we were.
I don't think that most people,
it's as easy as it was for us.
Yes, but I also grew up in poverty
and my mum was on the dole for 25 years.
I'm not trying to downplay that at all,
but I do think that just in terms of geographically,
the location that we grew up in put us at an advantage.
Yes.
If we're talking about our industry specifically,
which Steph isn't actually,
but there isn't, you know, enough investment at grassroots
in terms of, you know, in the arts, music, whatever,
up and down the country.
I mean, we were talking about it the other day,
like there are no youth centers anywhere.
There's nothing for people
to be able to get a foot a foot in and i think that that has um taken a lot of opportunity away
for a lot a lot of people can we have another question about ambition hi lily hi makita it's
katie here from scotland i was wondering if there has been anything that you have been really
motivated to succeed at purely to prove a point to someone.
So you can shove two fingers up and say,
fuck you, I proved you wrong.
What was it?
Did you succeed?
And how did it change or shape your career,
your life, or your ambitions moving forward?
Yes!
I actually said something to them in my head the other day. Told me I'm going to do shit. Yes. I mean, I remember I remember the shame that I felt the shame all over my body and mind when I left T4. It wasn't hadn't been a good year or two there after doing years and years of beautiful work and having an amazing time.
And I remember a lot of people were like, what are you going to do next?
What are you going to do now?
A lot of people that I loved as well.
And I remember thinking, I don't fucking know.
I don't know.
Should I have a plan?
I have no idea.
I'm 26 and I've been on TV since I was 15.
I have no idea.
And the things that I was going to do were going to come a lot later. I was going to if I poor little me knew since I was 15 I have no idea and the things that I was gonna do were
gonna come a lot later I was gonna if I poor little me knew what I was about to go through
oh my god but um I had I sat next to this brilliant guy at a lunch last year and he said to me he's
probably about 50 and he said to me listen it's this simple in life you get everything you want
it just doesn't happen when you think it will and And I was like, oh, that's nice.
I think there's a lot put on of like, you know,
even Steph earlier saying I'm 44 and I didn't do that.
I don't know.
It's like, let life still surprise you.
Like my mum, 55, and her career just went up lower.
And talking of my mum, my mum, not not necessarily to me but I was living with a
single parent who was trying to be a broadcaster and had a few opportunities like badass tv with
iced tea if you remember it good for you channel four and we had like she had an opportunity and
we had a bit of money for a minute and then it went and she had no more opportunities and she
just got told no no no no constantly so to watch my mum do what she's done at 55 in the face of that you try not
to let that stuff sit in your heart because it will stop you words are powerful that shit can
stop you you won't ever do anything okay you're right I had a teacher at a grammar college that
I went to so I must have been like 14 or 15 and she
was just about to suspend me she was and she was really sort of like smug and and mean and she was
just like well what's your plan then and I was like well I think I'm gonna be a singer and she
just kind of like like laughed out loud and said well what are you doing to make that happen?
And I was like,
well,
you know,
I'm having lessons.
I was like 14.
She was like,
I'm sorry,
like hates be the bearer of bad news,
but if nothing's happened yet,
then it's very unlikely that it's going to.
I was like,
what are you talking about?
Anyway, I gave her a thank you in the sleeve notes of my first album.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
Of what album?
First album.
First album. I think. Yeah. That's nice nice it's just a little fuck you no because it really did spur me on it was like I would see her like smug little face
and that little guffaw laugh when I said what it was that I wanted to do her like I was like
oh that got me and it did spur me on yeah I've got a few memories that have spurred me on
in situations
yeah what am I talking about
it really is sometimes
a thank you
to those haters
and then a
in their face
afterwards
is that your breakfast
mhm
crisps
mhm
rooms
what do you call it
mini bar special
yeah why is there only ever crisps in the minibar to eat
because they keep fresh for a long
that's right
it's not going to be like a ham and cheese
sandwich
wouldn't that be nice if you got to a hotel
and there was like a toasty
warm in tin foil
yeah there is it's just room service
yes I haven't travelled for a while no shit warm in tin foil. Yeah, there is. It's just room service. Yes.
I haven't travelled for a while.
No shit.
Very nice.
We'll see you after this little break that we're going to take
because I think she's done her best.
Why don't we just let Lily
finish her breakfast of crisps.

Should we have another question on ambition?
Yeah, I feel like people have got shit to say
and I bloody knew they would.
Hi, Makita and Lily.
Loving your podcast.
Think it's brilliant.
Takes me back to being 19, hungover, watching Shipwrecked.
I have ADHD, as do you, Lily.
Maybe even Makita, who knows?
So I have had a lot of ambition over the years,
but not had the follow through to do said ambitions.
So I've wanted to be a pop star, a vet, an author, a stand-up comedian.
So yeah, just wondering what growing up or even now,
what would be your ambition to be now?
Have you had lots of ambitions?
Have you only had one ambition?
If I'm honest, I don't know what the fuck I would have done
if I didn't become a TV presenter at 15 years old.
I have no idea. I had no plan or ambition, did I?
Did I ever talk to you about what I wanted to do
in the world? I knew I wanted to do something of importance, but I had no idea how that was
going to play out. I mean, interestingly enough, like I don't think I ever shared with you that I
wanted to be a singer because I sort of remember when things happened for me, like everyone was
quite surprised because I'd sort of been like working away at this little thing a little bit secretly and I think that was because something very British about
not wanting to be vulnerable about your ambition right and so I didn't want to reveal to anybody
that I had these like aspirations to do this thing because I didn't want the humiliation of like
failing at it right so in case it doesn't work out so i was just like i'm just not gonna
tell anyone and then if it happens it happens and if it doesn't it doesn't it's such a vibey
of moves also to like be like where's lily up number one what are you talking about
that's quite a move it's very important to stay curious about but also allow the universe to
surprise you i've been trying to kind of calm my ambitions and goals down
uh this year because I wanted to have a bit more of a life and just chat shit with you
make that my job incredible we've managed to make that happen and it's made me kind of think about
like again that's what I was saying about like your character and stuff it's like oh no do you
know what intent it's not what you want to do, but why?
And I think that usually changes what you do next.
I know that always happens to me.
That I got from Oprah.
Not what do you want to do?
Why do you want to do it?
And it usually kind of leads you somewhere else.
Like Lily, for instance,
like why do you want to make music in Nashville right now?
Or make an album right now um I like the
feeling of writing something that connects with people when I when I am on stage and I'm showcasing
music for the first time that's only been sort of like in circulation for a relatively short period
of time and I can see people mouthing the words of the songs that I've written back to me that's such a powerful thing and it's been you know five or six years since
that's happened last and I and I miss that feeling and I know that the way to get that feeling again
is to write more stuff so that's what I'm doing. Connection is a big one in work isn't it doesn't
it feel better when you're making something that's connecting with people rather than waiting in a queue to have your photograph taken at the GQ awards which is
what happened to me at the end of last year and I was like I need to change my life I'm not fulfilled
this is not doing it for me anymore in any way shape or form there are still loads of things I
want to do I really want to direct I'd love to direct
television but like a music show anyway won't go into it I think that you would be absolutely
brilliant at that by the way I'm very excited to see that next chapter of your life happen
thank you that really helps me keep moving forward with that to hear you say that
yeah I'd like to direct and become a better producer and uh yeah I think that's it
what other ambitions do I have I really want my balcony to be nice this summer okay that's a good
one there are so many things that I would like to have done like I'd like to play you know musical
instruments a lot better than I can I'd really like to be able to speak some languages I just
like have not got the attention span to do it. And I haven't got the
funds actually to like be taught by somebody every day, which is what it would be required.
Like when I go to the gym. Just get to a lingo. I can't do it, Keats. I can't do it. Like I turn
it on and then I'm like, oh yeah, that thing. Oh yeah, that thing. It's like going to the gym. I
actually can't be in the gym unless I have my personal trainer like there to hold my hand and tell me what to do. My focus just drifts. So, you know, there's so much that I'd like
to do, but unless I had somebody holding my hand and telling me that, you know, I have to do it,
I find it really, really hard. It's quite important to know that though, because once you know that,
you kind of know what you need to get shit done. Yes. And it's actually a little bit like why I'm here in Nashville because you know a lot of people what I'm going to come out with at the
end of this week is like some songs in a very basic form and a lot of people would be able to
make those songs by themselves in this you know at home in their bedrooms I can't because I need
to have people there going come on Lily focus you can get through this verse you can do this chorus
like this is where we are I can't do it without that I watched the Vivian Westwood documentary as well actually this week
is my I'm ill week um sitting under the covers watching telly and she was like 85 and was like
people keep asking me what I want to do and actually what I really want to do is learn Spanish
I just don't have the time so I think if you don't get on with learning a language you really just don't do it
if we make loads of money from this podcast i'm gonna get some italian lessons
so if we're doing really well you'll know because lily will be fluent in italian
fuck going to number one lily will just be fluent in italian and we'll know god miss me's doing
bloody well isn't it?
Also, you look a little Italian,
especially when your hair's dark and you've got a suntan.
So it would work beautiful, you know?
Is that Italian?
It would be brilliant.
Next question, please.
Hi, Lily and Makita.
I hope you're both well.
First things first,
Lily, you actually used to follow me
and credit where credit's due.
There was one night
I was stumbling home blackout in London and I had just just moved there I didn't know my way around at all and
my phone was giving me the wrong directions so rather than call a taxi or I don't know ask a
friend for help I thought who knows London better than my new Instagram follower Lily Allen and so
I bless I sent you a whole like 60 second video of me stumbling about to wake up in the morning
with no recollection but
Lily Allen wants to send you a message saying be safe um so yes I was quite hungover and it was a
good story to tell my colleagues in the morning anyway finally I guess my actual question is
thanks for listening by the way um I'm really ambitious I'm at the end of my uni degree but
now I want nothing to do with my degree I want to become a DJ and go to Thailand that would be me
living the dream um that's my ambition I really want to make with my degree. I want to become a DJ and go to Thailand. That would be me living the dream.
That's my ambition.
I really want to make it happen.
But it's almost like, I don't know,
at what point does an ambition turn into craziness and now just stick with what you're doing?
Like, I've got a good degree going.
Should I just stick with it or should I switch up?
We've come up against this time and time again
where people are sending us messages,
but they are not revealing their names or their
geographical locations and I've said it time and time again it's very important unless it's like
something that you need to keep anonymous but I don't think that's what's happening I think people
are just forgetting that like they haven't got an avatar if you're forgetting we'd love to know who
you are where you are babe but if you if you do actually want to be anonymous for your personal
reasons that's up to you maybe I want to be anonymous for your personal reasons,
that's up to you.
Maybe you don't want to talk about ambition in a public space.
I understand.
I've got strong feelings about this.
I think finish your degree and then go and chase your dreams.
I do because I think that he might end up in Thailand DJing
and think, this isn't for me.
And then he's limited his options from where he can go from there.
So I think finish the degree.
Because it looks good on paper, doesn't it, to a future employer?
Yeah, now the temptation of pissing about is coming up.
But not just pissing about.
He's not just going on a gap year.
He wants to be a DJ, which probably will include a lot of travel
if it is part of your life.
It does become your job or one of your jobs.
So I say get on
with it if not now then when i will say both our experiences in thailand would say computer says no
separately makita's ended in a tsunami and mine ended well we can't even really go where mine
ended i have got a tramp stamp though my lower back but i wonder why thailand for dj is that
to do the moon parties
do you remember those full moon parties oh the buckets do you remember the buckets I loved
buckets oh no I don't that really doesn't surprise me buckets were amazing it was like alcohol and
like fresh juice and then they give you 10 straws and everyone would just get it it's like it's like early mahiki hang on a second i don't remember sharing my buckets with anyone i think it was
like a lone bucket okay all right cool just one bucket and i also remember doing the fire
thing one night being really drunk you know they like the jugglers they'd have the balls of fire
like on the end of a chain and i whacked myself on the back with it as it came up and it like burnt my hair. It could have been a hell of a
lot worse, you fire throwing. I mean, it did get worse than that. It did. That's true. That was
day three. It did get worse. But yeah, listen, a DJ life is a nice life. We know my cousin is a DJ.
He's also in music management, but he's, you know's you know from like 18 17 all the boys we knew
that wanted to be dj started early and they got on with it i think it's important to just get on
with it you've done your degree you've done the hard work now you can have some fun can we have
the last question for listen bitch oh 8,030 40 90 uh hi Just wanted to let you know that the jingle works
and I'm just catching up with episodes.
And one thing that makes me laugh the most
is when Lily says something that is funny
and then she proper pisses herself.
And that just really reminds me of me
because nothing makes me laugh more than me
and then I was thinking about you going on about how you're going to be 40 soon and my girlfriend
is going to be 40 soon and I was like don't worry about it anyway so I had to look up how old you
two were and I noticed that Lily's birthday is the day after mine in May.
And I was like, maybe it's a Taurus thing.
Will you be talking about star signs soon?
Do you think it's a load of bullshit?
Thanks, bye.
What a journey we all just went on together
as spiritual Tauran star sign sisters
um but you can be in our gang same birthday day after lily so we're all in the same sort of week
and um what else happened what else is said she just loves us and she thinks it's funny that i
laugh at all my own jokes which i have to say is the thing I hate the most about my mother.
I'm glad that that little trait is showing itself up again.
So Alison does that.
Yeah, my mum actually genuinely thinks that things get funnier
the more she repeats them as well.
She's like, well, wasn't that funny?
I'll say it again.
And I'll do it again.
Oh, no, Lil, that is quite you. is quite you oh my god stop it's a little bit
no but as the lady said we are turning 40 and i think that's when you really realize
the similarities between yourself and a parent great there you go so there you go. So there you go.
Okay, should we wrap it up?
Yeah, I think she just took us,
I think she just brought it home.
That lady just brought it home.
Thank you for another beautiful episode of Listen, Bitch.
I've just realised I haven't even thought about what the next one's going to be.
Oh, Lily, you can't keep, okay, but that's what, hey,
that's why we have the list.
It's okay, I've got you.
I'm your list backbone.
I'm like the other side of your brain.
Maybe I should just go with something that we've spoken about today.
What do you mean?
Why would we...
Oh, wow.
Okay, this week's...
This week's subject matter is...
The patriarchy!
Yay!
Yeah, I think we can do this.
Because what would be good is to give you a proper space
for all your opinions on this subject.
Listen, if other people don't have opinions on this, I think Lily will have opinions for all your opinions on this subject. Listen, if other people don't have opinions on this,
I think Lily will have opinions for all of us.
And you.
I hope you have some opinions on the patriarchy.
100%, but I've never felt free enough to talk about them
until we started doing this podcast.
Well, think about it.
You better think about how you feel about the patriarchy.
I want to hear your actual thoughts.
Don't hold back.
Don't let me take all the flack
which i will yes exactly let me take some of that heat off you all right we'll see you next week
