Welcome to My Therapist Goes With Me, with me, Bo Williams, and Joanne McNally.
In today's episode, we have dead bodies and getting eaten by hippos.
Okay, Joanne, I'm going to start by telling you about my week.
Do it!
Right? And I feel like you're rubbing off on me,
even though we haven't been in each other's company.
I read a book for the first time in four years, right?
Go on!
Jesus! Now, I want to say
it's something like
about like
the Russian history
or something like that
but it's not
it's called
The Chiffon Trenches
go on
it was
Andre Leon Talley
right
and I thought
if I'm gonna
now it sat on my bedside table
for six months
I took it to France with me
and I was like
right I'm getting into this
I'm obsessed at reading
it is
I forgot how much I loved it I feel and I was like right I'm getting into this I'm obsessed with reading it is I forgot how much
I loved it
I feel smarter
I'm like
ew
why is my phone
in my room
like I sleep
so much better
and then
it's like the world
has come at me
and I got home
Jamie Lang
had sent me his new book
Catherine Ryan
had sent me her new book
so I have all these books
to read
and I'm so excited
I mean I know
I should be going
into something historical.
I need to.
No, because I think anything
that gets you reading is good.
Do you know what I mean?
Gets you going and then
it's like training.
I feel like you're a reader.
Start small.
What I guzzle is news.
I read a lot of newspapers.
I have subscriptions
coming out of my eyeballs.
But I have a stack of books
beside my bedside table
that I haven't read yet either.
I have loads of books, right, that I ordered. Someone told me to order. But I have a stack of books beside my bedside table that I haven't read yet either. I have loads of books
that I ordered.
Someone told me to order.
They gave me a list.
This is also going back
four years.
Brand new.
And they're right up your street
like The Alchemist
and all those
really clever people books.
Spencer.
Oh my God, Vogue.
Tell Joe about the book
you wrote.
No.
Yes.
Vogue wrote,
Vogue is a published author.
Yeah.
Really?
It's kind of like a picture book really.
Do you remember?
Joanne, excuse me,
if you want to do a high pony tile,
you can find that in the book.
Messy bun in the book.
Is it beauty tips?
No, it's like,
you looking hot in various outfits.
Me looking hot?
It was me,
I did a lifestyle book
right
and I had to do a gym shoot
and it was one of those times
I'd just done my knee in
and I'd put on
a fair bit of weight
like I don't usually
put on weight
I got to the point
where my mum said to me
listen Vogue
you put on too much weight
and I'm in all these
gym outfits
and I was like
oh my god
I only realised
after I saw the pictures
in the book
I was like
holy shit
my mum was right
do you not remember what the book was called? like, holy shit, my mom was right.
Do you not remember what the book was called?
Was it called Vogue?
No, it's worse.
It's worse.
Everything.
It's so funny, everything,
and there's literally nothing.
There's nothing in it.
Everything, but nothing. But nothing.
So fashion.
It was, it was, what's it called?
A lifestyle book. A lifestyle book, yeah. I know. I mean, they're like, it was, what's it called? A lifestyle book.
A lifestyle book, yeah.
I know.
I mean, they're like,
in fairness,
I'm kind of jealous
because they're so easy
to bang out.
Like, I would like to,
will maybe write a book
and I was like,
wow, you'd love to just do
a colouring book or something.
I'm a published author,
you can just doodle in,
like just doodle in
between the lines all day.
You could do a wellness book.
How could I do a wellness book?
Joanne, you sage.
You do all nice things like that.
Yeah, because I'm not well.
But actually,
reading the books, right?
You know the way you fall down
a hole every week?
Couple of holes.
I love a good hole, yeah.
I fell down a hole.
Go on.
Karl Lagerfeld.
Oh, yeah.
Fell down a hole about him.
Bit of an arsehole.
He doesn't have sound vibes.
Is he alive?
Sorry.
No, he's dead.
He's dead.
Oh, I can't really say that.
But anyway, he's dead.
We can't say he's dead.
No, you can't say he's dead.
You can't say he's an arsehole.
For the podcast,
we didn't upset anyone.
Carl's fine.
Carl is alive and well.
He kind of looked dead
a long time before he actually died.
Do you know that he survived
solely on Diet Coke?
So he put on
a shitload of weight
and then he lost it all
and then yeah,
he had Diet Coke
and he wouldn't eat anything.
But,
so he was really rich.
I didn't realise
how rich he was.
Like houses all over the place
and he used to like
basically fund
certain people's lifestyles.
He was friends with this woman
for two decades
and he like basically
funded her whole life
and then just dumped her
at the drop of a hat because they could say something to him
and this Andre Leontali said
he dumped him after like 30 years of
friendship. So he would then ask for
the stuff back. He would like decorate their apartments
in these amazing furniture and antiques and then he'd be
like, yeah I'm going to take them back now because
he would just think that they were just a lend
but they were a gift. So he was a little bitch basically.
Bit of a little bitch. He was a little bitch.
And I think he left all his money to his cat.
I hate when people do that.
I know. Cat as well.
A dog, maybe, but a cat. I mean,
send it to Yemen. Like, do something
useful with your money. Fucking cat.
What's a cat going to do? A cat doesn't even
want to buy it. Like, cats don't even wear clothes.
What was a cat's name again? It actually had a nice
name. I thought that could be a nice kid's name again? I actually had a nice name.
I thought that could be a nice kid's name maybe.
Cat.
Two holes I fell into.
Carl puts his face
do you know what I've realised
when I was doing
a bit of shopping recently
and I was like
why am I paying money
to advertise
like clothes
like do you know
Like that Adidas top
you're wearing.
Yeah exactly.
Exactly.
Like why am I buying
Kenzo top
and I'm just walking around
wearing this huge big
Kenzo logo.
Why? It's so you're like it's actually so rude. It's so cheeky Kenzo? I'm just walking around wearing this huge, big Kenzo logo. Why? It's so, you're like, it's actually so rude.
It's so cheeky of them.
I'm not wearing any branded shit anymore.
I know, but like some people want it for the branding, like polo sports.
Like people buy it for the horse.
No.
I know what you're saying.
I kind of like the horse.
No.
Listen, you're sitting there in a big Adidas thing.
Choupette. That's what his cat was called.
Stupid.
Stupid, stupid. We're little rich bastards. Give me a lens, Choupette that's what his cat was called stupid stupid Choupette little rich bastard
give me a lens
Choupette
Choupette's still gone
we'll be mates with it
eating truffles
and diamonds
in his cat bed
of diamante crystals
ridiculous
but it's quite fun
to fall down a hole
like that
I wonder who
I'll leave my money to
toilet mushrooms
toilet mushrooms
Joe
Joe's putting his hand up
Joe wants the money
I think it goes to your mom if you die if you die first or then your brother maybe I mean I wonder who I'll leave my money to. Toilet mushrooms. Toilet mushrooms. Joe. Joe's putting his hand up. Joe wants the money.
Yeah.
I think it goes to your mom if you die.
If you die first.
Or then your brother maybe.
I mean,
I'm kind of hoping I live my mother.
You never know.
It's a pretty pessimistic attitude.
If you're going to eat quavers and wine and that's all,
you can't expect to live for very long.
Quavers are such a shit crisp as well.
I live.
I'm such a basic bitch.
I was thinking when I die I was actually
I'd love to be
No would I?
Yeah I would
Cremated and then scattered
On top of a chicken salad
And then fed to people on the day
Gross
Yeah
My friends ate their mom's ashes
By accident?
No they did it on purpose
They were all really pissed one night
And like
They put a bit of the ashes
Into their drinks
And all
She listens to the pod as well,
they all drank
the mom's ashes.
I just wouldn't want that.
What if he got a foot?
I don't know what I'd want to do.
Maybe I'd like to be mixed
with people
so I'm not on my own
so I could be in an urn.
I don't know if I even
want to get cremated
but I don't want to rot either.
I'm just worried
I'd still be alive.
Apparently that whole
getting buried alive thing
was massively over exaggerated. I think only one person has ever been buried alive. Back that whole getting buried alive thing was massively over-exaggerated.
I think only one person
has ever been buried alive.
Back in the day,
they used to put little bells
on their wrists
so they could ring.
I think it only happened
to one woman.
I imagine that was you.
That'd be enough.
One person's enough
because, I don't know,
people come back from the dead.
Who has come back from the dead?
The woman with the bell.
She did.
The woman you just spoke about.
But this was back in the day
when they couldn't tell
if you were alive.
I remember my auntie Joan
was terrified of being buried alive.
I was like,
it's like she thinks
if she just took a nap.
Like, it's very clear
when someone's dead
because they look like
they've been vacuum packed.
They don't look great.
I hate that.
They don't look great.
When they walk in,
it's like, oh God,
they look very peaceful.
It's like they look
like they're in bits.
Their mouth is all sewn together
and shit. It's fine. She never wore that in bits. Their mouth is all sewn together and shit.
She never wore
that much lipstick.
She looks like a little tart.
What have you done to her?
She looks like a little tart
on a hen party.
I want to be tanned
to the max.
I want to have a bouncy blow dry.
I don't want funeral home makeup.
I've seen the makeup they use.
I want like
a proper makeup artist.
Yeah.
I asked my friend Ashley
to do my dad's makeup
when he was dead so obviously and she wouldn't do it. Yeah, like that's makeup artist. Yeah. I asked my friend Ashley to do my dad's makeup when he was dead.
So obviously,
I shouldn't do it.
Yeah, like that's quite a big ask.
Also, it's not just like
a bit of Charlotte Tilbury.
Like it's,
don't they spray paint them?
Isn't it like spray?
It's not like a bit of Rimmel mascara.
It's like special dead person's makeup.
No, I saw regular makeup in there.
Just really thick,
like probably stage makeup. Yeah. Okay. Yeah, yeah, just really thick. Like, probably stage makeup.
Yeah, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, because they start crusting.
I don't like talking about dead bodies.
I read this article the other day about this woman and her mother
who went and made each other's graves out of wicker.
They're coffins.
Sorry, coffins.
So it's this kind of like retreat thing.
You go and you build your coffin out of, is it wicker?
No, willow.
Like the St. Bridget's Cross.
Yeah.
I think it's willow.
Oh, gross.
Do you know what?
She made,
they made it for each other
and then they lay inside it after
and had a photo taken.
No, thanks.
Like not a hope in hell
when I do something like that.
That's disgusting.
But I actually fell down
a second hole,
which this brings me
into the hole.
I don't know how.
I look up weird news stories.
That's the kind of news I read.
I know you read the Times and shit like that. Well, I read weird news stories on the
Daily Mirror. And there was six countries marked death in different ways, right? In Tibet, they
put the deceased on a mountaintop to decompose and have to be eaten by scavenging animals. So
they chop them up and leave them there. And then if get eaten all up it's like a really good sign.
Gross.
Scandinavia
they bury you
on a boat
and give grave offerings.
That could be quite nice.
Like what you see
in the movies
and they shoot an arrow
of burning fire.
Yeah, Game of Thrones.
Yeah, that's exactly
what it is.
Korea, death beds
aren't a fashion trend.
They're aware of
honouring the dead
in South Korea.
After 60 years they removed the person's grave
because they've got no space.
I also read about these,
because graveyards and dead people
do actually take up a lot of space.
But you can fit six people a grave.
Well, that's if you've bought a six-person grave.
Like, I'll be buying a single woman's grave.
No, you can be buried with me.
You can come with me. Thank you. No one else has offered. Actually, I'll be buying a single woman's grave. No, you can be buried with me. You can come with me.
Thank you.
No one else has offered.
Actually, everyone else
has turned me down.
I asked my friend Nicola
and she was like, no.
Oh my God.
In the Philippines,
they dress up their deceased
in their best outfit
and sit the body in a chair.
The body remains there
for several weeks
with a lit cigarette
placed between the lips.
Corpses are also buried
sitting up.
And women have their hands
tied to their feet
to prevent their ghosts
from roaming.
That just sounds like a session.
That person's been sitting
straight up saying nothing
for three days.
I think that scares me.
I wouldn't want my body
like that.
Do you remember that story
of the session
and that fella who fell
down the chimney?
Do you remember that story?
No.
It was like James Kavanagh's mate. Did he fall? They were sessioning on the roof and that fella who fell down the chimney. Do you remember that story? No. It was like James Kavanagh's mate.
Did he fall?
They were sessioning on the roof
and this fella fell down the chimney
and no one noticed
he fell down the chimney
and luckily he fell
with his hands in the air
and then it was
like someone had taken a picture.
How did he fall down?
So he must have been
on the roof of the house.
Yeah, he fell.
I can't remember.
Someone fell down the chimney anyway.
They did get saved.
But that was,
I'm actually being
absolutely hammered he fell down the chimney. Are you sure you weren. But that was, I'm actually being absolutely hammered.
Are you sure you weren't watching Mary Poppins?
No, I didn't make that up.
Honestly.
I know James Cavanaugh fell off the roof of the
house. God, it was some party.
One lad down the chimney, James off the roof.
Bloody hell.
Yeah, I think he had to have a wire.
He did have a wire put in his jaw
or something mad.
Did he?
Yes, maybe they're like, maybe it's time to turn the tunes off.
Jesus, the session's over, the session's over.
Last one of the dead people, right?
In Madagascar, every five to seven years,
they dig up their dead relatives
and share stories with them for a general catch-up.
Surely it'd be bones by then.
Ah, that's, that's,
where are you getting,
Vogue, are you sure these are real stories?
These are real,
it's from the Daily Mirror, right?
I quite like that one.
At least you wouldn't be alone.
You are alone, you're dead.
I know, but.
You couldn't be more alone.
Listen, I'm going to heaven.
Oh yeah, but you'll be up in heaven
doing your own thing.
You won't care.
Not purgatory, Joanne.
No one's going to purgatory
only Gigi.
Do you know they got rid of purgatory? We're christened now. Did they cancel purgatory? Yeah, purgatory no one's going to purgatory only Gigi do you know they got rid of
purgatory
we're christened now
did they cancel
purgatory
yeah purgatory's
actually gone
I only found that
out
they shut it down
did they
yeah yeah yeah
they shut it down
purgatory's out of
business fair play
I kept the same one
because I thought
it was such a shame
to lose it
Joe writes our
little intros and
outros for us
and he likes to,
well,
this is the shit he writes for me.
It's the podcast
that works on the basis
of striking a match of humour,
igniting the fire of conversation
and toasting the marshmallows
of friendship in the process.
Who's writing these for you, Joe?
The other day when Joe
fucked up the podcast,
he didn't actually
fuck up the podcast,
by the way.
I just sounded like I was in a fishbowl
and it didn't sound very good.
So hence the reason we're back in again
because we're very good.
And Joanna had a gig last night.
She's still in here at nine o'clock in the morning.
Yes, I was gigging in Windsor last night.
It was great crack,
but four women had to be removed individually.
Why?
It was wild.
Because they were lost.
I just wouldn't shut up.
Do they remove people because they're too loud? Oh, wild. Because they were lost. Just wouldn't shut up. Do they remove people
because they're too loud?
Oh yeah.
You have to.
They're disrupting
the entire show.
So the worst type
of heckling is
the ones where they
try to have a conversation
with you.
Oh no, no, no.
So it's one thing
someone's shouting
one thing or whatever
but it's different
when you're like
so I met this guy
and they're like
where did you meet him?
It's like this kind of
conversation.
Oh no. And they think they're like on a one-on-one and you're like we're met this guy and they're like where did you meet him it's like this kind of conversation oh no and they think they're like
on a one-on-one
and you're like
we're not at brunch
so what do you do
ignore them
you try to calm them down
like I find just ignoring them
works better
I think if you talk to them
it gives them oxygen
and then they kick off more
and they feel like
they're part of the show
and then they get
like they want more attention
like the audience
there's always a couple
of attention seekers
in the audience
says you're one on stage,
but like...
I'm like,
this is about me, bitch!
Get her out!
How does Scarlett
being kicked out?
Yeah, one woman
actually kicked herself out.
She just got up and
the defense was like,
listen, you're going to
have to keep it down
because I know
I'm just going to have to leave.
And she just left herself.
I've never seen anyone remove themselves
from a comedy club.
I wouldn't say Amber would last long.
Amber's going to a few of your gigs.
She'll be kicked out.
Oh yeah, no, I have no patience for it.
Like once in Edinburgh,
there was a bit of that going on.
There was a bit of like this group
and I gave them a bit of airtime
and then they thought it was their show
and they were blah, blah, blah.
And I could have done something
very kind of fun and cool with them.
I just went
shut up
I just
I was like
I don't want
like I'm not going to
try and turn this
into some fun bit
just shut up
and then the whole room
was like ooh
it took me a couple
of minutes
to get them back
shut up
and get out
I was just like
shut up
who's your favourite comedian?
ooh
I've no one favourite
I like
there's a selection
Top three
I love Kevin Bridges
Okay yeah
I love
Amy Schumer
I've never seen
any of her comedy
She's like
the OG
and I love
Des Bishop
Do you?
Yeah
He's a very good friend of mine
Is he?
Before you start
rolling your eyes
Excuse me
I didn't roll my eyes
at Des Bishop
I've actually never
I kind of just forgot
about Des Bishop
until you reminded me there
he's married to some
he's married
well he's engaged
to some young one
from a reality show over there
New York
America
God I remember Des Bishop
he was massive in Ireland
for a period of time
he was huge
so he did 41
Vicar Streets
one year in a row
40
how many are you on
20
Jesus 20
do you remember
you thought you
wouldn't even sell out one
I know
but because you know
the way you deflect
compliments
someone's like
so if anyone says to me
about the 20
I do yeah
I'm really bad at it
someone says
20 Vicar Streets
I always go
Des Bishop sell 40
every time
20 shite
yeah
20 is nothing
it's pathetic
pennies thanks pennies Des is nothing it's pathetic pennies
thanks pennies
9 euro pennies
oh come here to me
what I was trying to say to you
when I was saying that
Jo messed up the pod
so basically I said
that the French
don't like wifi
do you know what the French
really don't like
they really don't like
you saying
they don't like wifi
to be honest
when you said that
I did think to myself
see I've still got a
pior brain
from my pior days and when you said that I did think I was like she's gonna get shit for that see I did think to myself, see, I've still got a pior brain from my pior days.
And when you said that, I did think I was like,
she's going to get shit for that.
See, I like the French though.
I know, but saying French don't like Wi-Fi,
it's quite a sweeping statement.
I just, I was like, she's just, I know.
I was in three different houses in France, right?
Terrible Wi-Fi.
Well, I couldn't get Wi-Fi anywhere in France.
It's basically what happened.
But I do love the French.
Yeah, but like, yeah.
I'm not eating any more bread though.
Jesus.
Sorry, I have a complaint.
I'm sick of Pret-a-Manger's bullshit.
Pret-a-Manger don't even pay for ads on this podcast.
They're always on.
I'm sick of their shit, right?
I cannot find a hummus and chipotle wrap.
Like, give the people what they want.
Clearly, it's a very popular wrap.
It's always sell-dates. Order more. Order more. I don't want a and chipotle wrap. Like, give the people what they want. Clearly, it's a very popular wrap. It's always sell date.
Order more.
Order more.
I don't want a
Hoisin duck wrap.
Hoisin.
Whatever.
I don't care to know the name
because I do not want it.
Do you know what Amber
said to me yesterday?
She was flying back from France
and she actually rang me
and she's like,
oh, guess what?
They've got a press
in the airport in Nice.
And I was like,
oh my God,
she was so excited.
It's the most exciting thing.
That's why I got out of bed
this morning.
And that's not even a lie.
Oh, you went to the one over there
and they didn't have one.
I was obviously
at the border being a press.
It's too early for that.
No, they don't replenish
the wraps on a Sunday, right?
I know the system.
That's fine.
But like,
I could go in there
on a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,
any time after three o'clock,
no hummus and chipotle wraps.
Yeah, because no one eats
lunch after three o'clock.
The meatball wrap's quite nice, by the way. If you wanted to'clock, no hummus and chipotle wraps. Yeah, because no one eats lunch after three o'clock. The meatball wrap's
quite nice, by the way.
If you wanted to venture out.
You're not really a meat eater.
I don't eat meat.
I don't eat meat.
Oh, chicken.
You eat chicken.
I don't eat chicken
because I don't know
what's best for me.
They're weirdos.
Chickens are fucking weirdos.
Have you seen the way
they just wander around?
Someone actually corrected me
because someone actually
messaged me,
what do you mean
to watch when they're
driving around?
I don't know.
They just have no purpose. They don't do anything. Someone actually messaged me saying you mean what do you mean to be driving around I don't know they just have no purpose
they don't do anything
someone actually messaged me
saying chickens
because I had said before
that I don't really
connect with chickens
emotionally
or fish
and she was like
no no no
chickens can be very affectionate
and can be very popular
as household pets
oh my god
did you hear about the hippo
who ate his owner
no
this hippo
which are apparently
the most dangerous animals.
Oh the most dangerous
in the animal kingdom.
More dangerous than lions
or anything.
I didn't know that.
Vicious.
They kill the most
amount of humans every year.
But they look so cute.
I know.
Big fat head.
Imagine I'd hate
to be killed by a hippo.
So this one's not ideal.
This lad
adopted this hippo
I think the hippo
must have floated away
from its family or something
I don't know the details as usual. Adopted this hippo. I think the hippo must have floated away from its family or something. I don't know the details as usual.
Adopted the hippo and six years
later was riding the hippo's back
into the river where he'd found him and the hippo
turned him and ate him.
Ate him all up? Ate him in the river that your man
had rescued him out of and adopted him.
Who adopts a hippo firstly?
But he was keeping the hippo as his own pet and he was doing
all these interviews about how connected they were and how close they were. The hippo ate him. They're very close the hippo as his own pet. And he was doing all these interviews about how connected they were
and how close they were.
The hippo ate him.
They're very close now.
Very close.
Very close.
Oh my God, that's a hideous way to die.
I know.
I'd rather be mangled by a lion
than like eaten by a hippo
and dragged underwater.
This girl actually recently
saved her sister.
There was a crocodile fight,
so I was going to say.
So a crocodile started eating
her sister, her twin,
and she saved her sister from the crocodile.
How?
I don't know.
Listen, details.
I don't know the details.
I just know.
Did she shoot it?
Did she wrestle it?
And I told Spenny a story about the giant squid.
Did you hear that story?
No.
So my friend Lynn, you know Lynn,
her family friend got eaten by a giant squid.
I thought she got taken off the boat,
but actually she was already in the water.
Spenny would not believe it.
It's true.
Imagine all those suckers, all of it.
And giant squids are huge.
This is why I do not go into the ocean.
No.
My one fear, the one thing that freaks me out
is deep water.
Deep water and crabs.
Not knowing what's going on down there underneath me.
Like, no, not for me.
Even in a pool, it freaks me out
where you can see what's going on.
I like to wear,
that's why I like water shoes
to go in the water
because I don't like my feet
going into the sand.
They disappear
and I don't know
what's under there with them.
There's crabs.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
There are crabs.
I had to sit,
we were in Lanzarote
and Martin made me do a piece.
Martin's my friend.
He's my producer.
He made me do a piece
of camera sitting on this rock
that was infested
with these huge black crabs
that moved at the speed of lightning. And honestly,
I didn't know how frightened I was about
crabs until I actually sat on that rock
with the crabs. Yeah, I mean, anything that moves
with speed is quite scary.
Anything that moves faster than I do,
which is pretty much everything, but like spiders,
they scuttle across, or
I remember once,
I was having a cigarette out my bedroom window
when I was, whatever, six, and I was like, you know as bedroom window when I was whatever six and I was like
you know as a child
when you're smoking
and your parents are downstairs
and you think you're cool as shit
you're like
God I just really need
a fag right now
with the worst head rush
my life is so stressful
fucking colouring in
so I was smoking
out the window
and I stubbed it out
on the windowsill
and I'd obviously
stubbed it into a
spider's nest
oh fuck
and they all just came
rotting in my hand
it was horrible
oh my god
I know
I would die
would you rather sleep
on a bed of spiders
someone asked me this question
a bed of spiders
or a bed of snakes
definitely a bed of snakes
yeah
a bed of snakes
yeah
spiders would go up your nose
because their skin
is quite soft hence the handbags.
So he's like, I'm going to leave the room now.
Put on something nice.
And I literally am sitting there with a yogurt.
What does he mean, put on something nice?
He thinks I have these stores of nice underwear,
but I just sit there in my pajamas.
I've got lovely jammies.
Did you see? I don't have the details of it now, but I do want there in my pajamas. I've got lovely jammies. Did you see?
I don't have the details of it now,
but I do want to talk about it.
Wouldn't me like it?
Who needs deets, Jo?
Megan Fox and Kourtney.
Is it Skims?
Is that the name of Kim?
Skims is Kim's.
Yeah.
Skims and Kim's.
Skims is Kim's knicker brand. In fairness, I want the Skims. I want the Skims? Is that the name of Kim? Skims is Kim's. Yeah. Skims and Kim's. Skims is Kim's knicker brand.
In fairness, I want the Skims.
I want the Skims.
But the fake lesbianism
of the whole thing.
I was like,
did you see it show?
They're like licking each other.
It's all very sexual.
It reminds me,
do you know when you're a teenager
you used to pretend to be a lesbian
in nightclubs to get boys' attention?
Yeah.
Yeah.
And you'd just be like
gyrating up and down your friend,
Nicola.
Like just, yeah.
Trying to like eye--ride some lad.
Oh, God.
It's so pathetic.
And that's literally
what they're doing.
I don't know why
they're doing it, though.
It's so, like,
Fake lesbianism.
It's clit bait.
That's what I'm calling it.
Clit.
It actually revolts me.
I was going to call it
c**t bait,
but I was like,
it's a bit much.
A lot to be said about a nice drink
I've gone off tea
some of the shit
that comes out of your mouth
I know because I love
a nice drink
I have to have nice drinks
all the time
so I need to have
I had a gorgeous drink
down in your basement
the other day
what?
when you were
gallivanting around
I'm very disappointed
in the basement
it's really
it's pissing me off
you know Amber's
going to live down there soon.
Where's Alzo going to go?
And you can be like twins down there together.
Where's Alzo going to go?
He's delighted.
Alzo just wants to be on his own.
He doesn't, like, he literally...
He's done his time in that house now.
He plans his day around
not being anywhere near the children.
I'm like, when are you home today?
He's flying back from Spain.
He's like, don't know.
I'm like, yeah, you do.
What time's your flight at?
I'll get the kids to meet you.
Yeah, want to pop out
and take the kids for a walk?
He's like, no, I'm studying.
You're not.
Hates it.
Yeah.
What did you drink in my basement?
I don't know about it.
Some like cucumber infused.
A dash.
Yes.
They're delicious.
They have these raspberry ones as well.
Nice with a vodka.
Very nice.
We had a bit on the episode
that we lost about One Night Stands,
which we've managed to salvage, so we're going to
squeeze that in here now. The sound quality is a little
bit off, but you'll get the gist.
I was in Dublin for two weeks.
I rowed nine lads.
No. No, you. Okay. I rode nine lads. No.
No, you didn't.
I did.
Do you want to know you didn't?
I'm only messing with...
Oh, come on.
Jo, is it?
We don't even get the time.
Jo, how could you think she'd even be arsed doing that?
I was like...
I know.
First of all, I was really offended that you hadn't told me. now there was there was a lot though there was there was a lot so basically okay so
I mean I mean I say more worldly I'm probably putting away one a month now whereas before I
was putting away like two a year anyway look it's a phase I'll probably become frigid next month and
just start knitting violently like I don't know what I'm doing I'm just having a good time I used
to put so much value on sex and now it seems to have absolutely no value for me whatsoever I don't know what I'm doing I'm just having a good time I used to put so much value on sex and now it seems to have absolutely no value for me whatsoever I don't know why
I say it's actually so easy now like you could just go out and meet somebody if you wanted to
and you're just a bit like meh I'm busy with my mates I've just outgrown that whole thing of like
oh I can only have sex with men that I'm completely obsessed with although that never
stopped me before because I was I would get obsessed with men within
seven minutes.
So that was grand.
But I used to just think of it as this huge, it had such value.
And I was like, oh no, you know what I mean?
He has to love me.
Now it's coming to the book.
I also think I ride for the pot.
Like we can't talk about monkey music every week.
Do you know what I mean?
No.
I think that you have to.
I'm doing it for us, babes.
Yeah.
And I like the gossip.
And I actually hold out in hearing the gossip until we do the part.
I'm like, don't tell me, don't tell me any more about it.
Yeah.
But I think it's very important because you know what?
I will be honest with you, right?
I had one, well, it was only about six months of my worldliness, right?
Where I broke up from one person and then it was before I met Sven.
I think that you need to really like get around.
Get around. I'm in the need to really like get around. Get around.
I'm in the prime of my life.
Kind of.
According to the lies I tell about my age.
I'm in the prime of my life.
So I should be enjoying myself.
So I went and had to rage her in Dublin.
And then the last night I was at the local
and there's this lad at another table
and he's like all the things I like.
Big bearded, built, all that shit. We've been having it. I had him over at the table and he's like all the things I like big bearded built all that shit
we've been having
I had him over
at the table
and my friend
Onya has a photo
we were in the beer garden
and I'm flat out
on my back
on a bench
with my legs
wrapped around his neck
apparently I was
getting him to lick
my shins
that's what Onya said
I don't know if she's
saying it to give me
the fear
but she was like
you were asking him
to lick your shins
one two skip a few
I'm in a taxi
on my way to wicklow not realizing he lived in wicklow i'm now on i'm now on like a like a
fucking car journey i'm crossing county lines oh no too far i was going on a one-night stand not a
road trip i'm gonna need to get my password stamped when i get there and it's important i go into it's
the most single man house you've ever seen right like
I went into the bathroom like there's nothing in the house the house is it the only things that
for survival there's not even like a live laugh love swinging out of the place there's nothing
okay some classic single man house just like some light fixtures and a fridge you know what i mean but and i like a
clothing horse in the back i go into his bathroom and on his on his bathroom towel hand towel holder
is a jay cloth folded oh no and i i took a photo of it obviously but i was like look i'm just
letting you know i've taken a photo of this And he's like I think the cleaners is that
And I was like
Yeah
My hell
Oh my god
So anyway
What age was he?
What age was he?
He's old
Age appropriate
Anyway
So the next morning
I think he's like
36
He's too old
To have a J cloth
As a tea towel
If he's 36 years old
I'm not asking
If he's slapping a minor I'm not asking if he slept with a minor.
I'm just wondering about the J-cloth.
No, you get one minor.
You get one minor in your life and then you just have to park it.
Put it down as experience and move on.
So next morning, anyway, there's all this drama because he's late for work.
The car is still in the pub.
We're in the middle of nowhere.
Well, for me, we're in the middle of nowhere.
And he was like, look, we're going to have to get the bus.
And I was like, do you think i'm bringing
this situation onto the 145 to bray you are out of your fucking mind like once the curtains are
open like you can't do that to a one-night stand you can't you can't be all like woman you're like
and the next minute you're standing at a bus stop going so like have you any siblings or like you just can't like the the only thing more domestic I was like why don't we just go and do a
food shop while we're at it knock over to your ma's for tea like now once the curtains are open
the chemistry is gone like that's the real I think that's the way once you step out of the bed
that's it it's done because basically it's kind of fake intimacy
do you know what I mean
anyway
I wouldn't be able to
I wouldn't be able to
stay the night myself
I would have been out of there
like within seconds
after I wouldn't
I couldn't
I couldn't
but so then he was like
look we'll share a cab
and I was like
I'm not
I'm not actually
not gonna do that either
I was like I think
I said I just
I didn't want to be in a cab
he signed and everything but I was like it's just so awkward do you know what I mean I was like no I'm not actually not going to do that either I think I said I just said he's sound and everything
but I said
it's just so awkward
do you know what I mean
I was like
no I'm going to get
I'm going to get my own cab right
and he's like
alright cool
but then with the timing
of the cab
he realised
I know
it was a big commitment
to get a cab
because I was in another county
I woke up
I was no longer in Dublin
but anyway
so then we realised
with the timing of the cabs
he realised
I was going to be in his house
while he wasn't there.
So he was being
really weird about it.
He was like,
well, don't rob anything.
And I was like,
I'm good for J-Claus.
I've got a bumper,
back it out.
And I was like,
unless they're literally
taking out your light features
and your curtain rails,
there's literally nothing
to take in this house.
I was like,
that's why I can't get a bus
because I'm going to be dragging on a dung bell and a fucking clothes horse out of your gaff
do you know what i noticed about one night stands i think when when you're having sex with men if
they're not romantically connected to you i have this theory joe you could back me up on this
that once a man ejaculates he kind of hates you No I don't agree There's a repulsion there
Like he's kind of
He's so
Like you finish having sex
You turn around
And he's already in the garage
Fixing a radio
Like he's gone
He's out
Perhaps he's just
He's just tired
Sometimes he's just tired
No I looked it up
It's called
Post coital dysmorphia
It's like this
Expelling of this
Like this sexual chemistry
And then the reality
That you don't know that person
You're in no way Invested in them at all that you don't know that person you're in no way
invested in them at all
do you know what I mean
and you're
men in particular
I was saying to my friend Simon
I was like
I think when men ejaculate
they kind of hate you
on one extent
and he goes
yes
once men ejaculate
they have absolute clarity
and I was like
oh thanks
oh
that's really kind of you
this is an actual article
it's like
women don't seem to realize
that the loss of vital life force energy from male ejaculation is the culprit many women want
to experience the afterglow of lovemaking by staying emotionally connected they seek a short
circuit itself abruptly by his untimely discharge that it must seem to her that he turned off the
television while she was still watching the movie i know know, yeah, but you don't just walk out and say nothing.
You're like, okay, see you later.
I have to go and do this.
I couldn't wake up beside somebody I didn't know.
I'd feel so uncomfortable.
Like, even their breathing would bother me.
The weird thing about one night stand is,
if someone had said to you,
do you want to come home with me
and I'll spoon you for the night?
I'd be like, no, that's too intimate.
But he's like, do you want to come home? I'll like penetrate you. And the night i'd be like no that's too intimate but he's like do you want to come home i'll like penetrate you like and you're like yeah cool let's
go where we go nice is it all right i'll get the cat it's bizarre
imagine he was like do you want to come home with me and i'll kiss your face for the evening i'd be
like fuck off i don't even know you you're fucking weirdo john sorry i think it's worse that you you
went home with this guy and then
you're like sorry to get my own taxi you're not getting my taxi i just didn't want it's too it's
too domestic it's too much of it's too jarring from the position you've been in to be in the
real world then in the like anyway then i got my own taxi back from wicklow right and the taxi
driver like i'd look like I'd been dragged
through a bush I was using my knickers as a hair bobbin I'd no bra on I was wearing a see-through
top it was very clear what was going on this taxi driver didn't pick up on it at all wouldn't stop
asking me questions so do you live in Wicklow I was like um yeah where are you going going to work
and how is it we're living in Wicklow I had to create this whole life for myself in Wicklow
in the taxi just so that he wouldn't think
I was on a one-night stand because I was so embarrassed.
She's asked me about local businesses in Wicklow
and I was like, yeah, I love Molly's Bakery.
Like, I was like, I don't know what to say.
Like, it's clear what's going on here.
Joe broke the last one.
So we can re-record it.
Yeah, my fault.
Yeah, Joe broke the last one. My fault. Letrecord it yeah my fault yeah Joe broke the last one
my fault
let's go with that
go global at 9am on a Sunday
I should be eating falafels
another thing that happened to me this week right
people have a real issue with me playing Nintendo
right I had to
I worked with Nintendo and you know I only work with people that I love working with me playing Nintendo right I worked with Nintendo
and you know
I only work with people
that I love working with
I had the same thing
with Coke
and people were not happy
it was like
I was actually
dealing cocaine
that's how annoyed
they were
that I was working
with Coke
because people
have a real issue
with Coke
did you know that?
Yeah there's some
there's a lot of
political shit
going on with Coke
they're kind of
barred from certain
shops in Dublin
UCD don't sell them I love I drink Coke every day and actually now lot of political shit going on with Coca-Cola. They're kind of barred from certain shops in Dublin.
UCD don't sell them.
What?
I love, I drink Coke every day and actually
now, like do I need to
be worried about myself?
I had a fancy zero
though yesterday.
I would say you need to
be worried about yourself
because they also use
Coca-Cola to clean blood
off streets after traffic
accidents.
That would be more
concerning rather than
their politics.
I'm drinking Coke Zero,
not full fat Coke.
It's healthy.
Yeah.
But I got loads of shit over Coke,
like a crazy amount of shit.
And then people were like,
you don't play Nintendo.
You're not playing Nintendo.
I know.
You don't have the vibe of a gamer.
Like gamers are usually kind of like,
you know,
men in their basements,
that kind of vibe.
But I know you, Vogue.
Vogue.
Vogue. Vogue. And I know you Vogue Vogue Vague
Vogue
and
I know that you do play games
yeah
yeah
not just psychological
I'm surprised you don't
no
I play
sometimes if I'm on
the tube
I'll play that
word game
where you try and like
Sudoku
no Sudoku
is that
not maths
I don't know
Scrabble
no
Scrabble Scrabble no Scrabble
Scrabble
no it's like
no no
I was going to say Pictionary
it's just kind of this
word generator
word thing
but no
I don't play games
psychological games
yeah you play psychological games
I play video games
I play physical games
but also
what I was going to say was
that's a part of your life
that people don't know about
and people are surprised
when they find out
parts of our lives
that people don't know about because we pretty much tell everyone find out parts of our lives that people don't know about
because we pretty much
tell everyone everything.
I suck my thumb viciously.
I've never seen you
suck your thumb.
Yeah, it's something
I do privately
in the privacy of my own home
like when you're gaming.
When you're gaming
I'm just at home
sucking my big thumb.
You're not goofy.
Goofy?
Well, I always associate
thumb suckers
with goofy people.
I'm looking at Gigi
and I'm like,
is she goofy?
Oh, I got away.
I used to have a gap in my teeth.
Me too.
I'd love a gap again.
I asked Audrey for one,
because you can actually make them.
Oh, you asked Audrey, did you?
Yeah.
Okay.
You can make them.
She was like, no.
Do you know what?
I've good news.
Tomorrow at two o'clock,
George the dentist is giving me my teeth.
I'm so embarrassed.
I'm so embarrassed.
And I had to put up this video the other day
and I was like, fucking hell. It's like two highlighters in my mouth. It's so. I don so embarrassed. I'm so embarrassed and I had to put up this video the other day and I was like, fucking
hell, it's like two highlighters in my mouth.
It's so... I don't think, I can't, I
don't notice it. Come on. No, it's just
because you're so perfect that it feels like
it's kind of teeny tiny.
When you're a three-year-old, it's slagging you off, you know it's
bad. Yeah, he's like, mummy, you're keeping
me awake at night, shut your mouth.
I can't sleep. The light's coming in.
It's too much, too much.
Hideous! but loads of people
do random
collabs
that like
we were talking about
sorry yes
my favourite one
was Justin Bieber
did nail polish
imagine all the girls
that would buy that
exactly
but it's so sinister
it's like
it's so dark
like
Justin Bieber
doing nail polish.
These poor girls.
Khloe Kardashian did a flat tummy shit.
She's always doing that.
And it's like, Khloe, you don't drink that stuff.
Did you ever have those skinny teas?
I remember I did a batch of skinny tea years ago
when it first came out.
No one really knew what it was.
Well, I know you don't like toilet humor,
but like you just spend all your...
It's like, it's like... What's that called? like you just spend all your it's like it's
like but what's that
called?
It's a diuretic.
No it's like you just
shit yourself.
It's a diuretic.
It's terrible.
Yeah yeah yeah yeah.
So basically that's why
you weigh less because
because you can't keep
anything down.
Yeah.
What's it called when
you take those things?
Laxatives.
It's like a laxative.
She does not take that
crap.
And she did didn't she
do toilet paper?
Kim Kardashian did toilet paper. Kim Kardashian did toilet paper.
Kim Kardashian did toilet paper.
We all use toilet paper.
Yeah, I know.
I don't know if I put my face to it though.
No.
I mean, how much money do they need?
Like, how much money do you actually need?
She would have got like...
Listen, if someone offered me a million for toilet paper,
I'd do the toilet paper.
I'd sit on the toilet with the toilet paper.
I'd do the toilet paper.
Would you?
A million.
I use toilet paper.
Especially Charmin. That's a very nice toilet paper. I'd do the toilet paper. Would you? A million. I use toilet paper, especially Charmin.
That's a very nice toilet paper.
I know.
Do you remember I went into your house once and there was like six crates of toilet paper
and you're like, yeah, I over-egg the pudding there.
I didn't really mean to buy that much.
And this huge big bag of pasta.
It was like this industrial size bag of pasta.
Oh, that was a mistake.
Yeah, that was a mistake.
We're still going through that.
That's a kilo.
A kilo of pasta.
I'm really bad at measurements as well.
Did I tell you about the time I bought the whiteboard?
No.
Oh my God.
I don't understand
size.
Neither do I.
I don't understand it.
I don't.
I've never had
a measuring tape.
Twice,
so one time
I went into
a second hand shop
and there was a desk there,
this huge big desk
and I went home
and I went up
and I measured it
with a book.
I was like,
okay,
so it's, the book was, I can't remember, say it's War and Peace. No, it wasn't it with a book I was like okay so it's the book
was I can't remember say it's war and peace no it wasn't but it's like okay so it's seven words
and pieces long and 18 words and pieces this way and then bought it couldn't even get in the front
door it was like a desk for the white house it was so big and then the second time I had to end
up going down to my aunt's for lives down in the thigh now then the second time was I ordered a whiteboard it's like my aunt's where it lives down in the Thigh now. Then the second time was I ordered a whiteboard.
I was like, I just need to get it organised.
I just need to get it organised.
A little whiteboard for my walls.
I could do da-da-da-da-da-da.
It arrived.
I didn't even look at the measurements.
It just went bing into the basket.
It arrived.
My mother's like,
what do you want?
Get down here.
This university-sized whiteboard.
It's absolutely ginormous.
Arise.
There's a photo of me.
There's a photo of me posing with it.
My mom ended up having to sell it on eBay.
Like I couldn't even,
I couldn't even figure out how to sell it.
It was gigantic.
It was like the whole size of that wall there.
I tell you, you're very organized.
Just for my thoughts, you know.
Just to do the damn thoughts.
Little girls for the day.
Yeah. So I have no concept of size. No, neither do know. Just a doodle down my thoughts. Little girls for the day. Yeah.
So I have no concept of size.
No, neither do I.
I always do that.
I can't measure anything out.
I hate doing it, actually.
It makes me feel uncomfortable.
I actually don't know how to use a measuring tape.
I had to Google it.
Joanne, my first job on the building site that I went to work in after uni,
they put me on this job to go around and measure out all the toilets
and where the sinks would go and everything in all the bathrooms.
And I came back
and your mum was like,
have you ever used
a measuring tape before?
No.
She was like,
these are all like completely wrong.
I haven't got a clue.
Still don't know.
Yeah, there was a lad
who was fixing a shelf in my room.
That sounds like he wasn't,
that he genuinely was
fixing a shelf in my room.
Shut up, Jo!
I'm like,
what are the little lines?
What are the big lines?
But why can't there just be
one set of lines?
I bet you there's bloody toilets
on the ceiling
in that school I did in Lewisham.
That is it for this week.
