This is a Global Player Original Podcast. Welcome to My Therapist Ghosted Me, with myself, Joanne McNally, and herself, Vogue Williams.
We should do an intro, Jo.
Oh, sing. Is that what you think today?
I still haven't drank. What's the date? What is the date?
It is October 25th. Look, she's got a pint of vodka there.
She's pretending it's water.
Can I tell you, I had the most glorious day yesterday.
Okay.
Our glorious days are so different.
So I'm always excited to hear about yours.
I had the whole day to myself.
I hate it already.
No shows, nothing, right?
So got up, treated myself to breakfast, then immediately treated myself to lunch.
Okay.
So I've gone to two restaurants so far.
It's one o'clock.
Dead right.
Dead right.
Then took myself,
walked into the city,
walked in.
That's a far walk.
In my Manolo Blahniks,
as if in my,
in my Essex.
Well,
I do.
And I thought to myself,
walked in my manelas walked in in my
what are the
what was the MCBs
what are those huge shoes
that girls used to wear
if they had like a limp
no it wasn't a limp
they were
they were kind of the shoes
of the moment
flip flops
no
fucking no
not a flip flop
MCBs
NBCs,
they had this kind of thing
to help you,
your stature.
Anyway,
it doesn't matter.
Walked into the city,
had a little nerdy afternoon.
You know,
I love a bit of Egypt.
Yeah.
There's a hieroglyphics exhibition
in the British Museum.
Did a tour
of that.
How boring.
Hieroglyphics.
God.
Wanked off in there
for a while
to the hieroglyphics. wanked off in there for a while to the hieroglyphics
then immediately
treated myself to dinner
no you didn't
of course I did
then
went and got a
top up of laser hair removal
and your woman came at me
with a lollipop stick
so you knew you were
getting a deep dive
oh I love when that happens
she went in so far
I'd say she lasered
there isn't a hair
in my uterus
I'd say well
you know the little hairs on your follicles are gone as well then came home
got into bed drank a whole bottle of riyaka and a bumper bag of sour cream sun bites i was in my
element watched three episodes of love is blind and then fell asleep to a documentary on hieroglyphics
so that i knew what the fuck i'd seen so you were you spent the day alone. That's nice. You love like taking,
Joanne takes Joanne out for a day.
Joanne loves Joanne.
Joanne thoroughly enjoys Joanne's company.
And come here to me.
So I learned something in the exhibition.
Thank God.
It was 20 quid.
20 quid for hieroglyphics.
Jesus.
Yeah, 20 quid to understand ancient Egypt folk.
It's actually quite a good deal.
Well, I'm just saying because I saw a deal
right and they're saying that it's so
cheap to go to Egypt. You could go for like
a week holiday for 200 quid and I thought
hieroglyphics for 20 quid. I'll just go to
Egypt, thanks. Yeah, take me
to the source, please. I'm throwing a fanny around
at the British Museum.
She puts on her little, her head
torch and heads off to the pyramids.
I have an outfit very similar to Toot and Camoon Toots hey Toots it's me Vogue
um the Rosetta Stone now I thought the Rosetta Stone genuinely was a woman he'd set up a language
that's what I thought it was. Yeah. And this is me. And like, I, I think that I
understand a bit like that. I know a bit about ancient Egypt. I clearly know absolutely nothing.
The Rosetta Stone is now a language program, but it was named after this huge big stone. So,
you know, all the ancient scripts and stuff. So it started off hieroglyphics was the originals.
That's all the suns
and the owls and all that shit.
I wonder was it more boring to go
or more boring to hear about it, Jo?
What do you think?
Just trying to broaden
your horizons, Vogue, okay?
It's because I didn't know
loads of words last week.
What words did you not know last week?
I forget them again.
They were very clever.
Acerbic. Acerbic.
Acerbic.
Oh, acerbic.
Fantastic word.
Anyway, I had an absolutely glorious day
and I would highly recommend
if anyone is around
the British Museum to go.
Five stars.
Do you know what my favourite kind of day is?
And I did one of them in Hoth.
Now, I've had my kids all weekend.
They probably wouldn't have been invited
to certain parts of it.
Can I guess your ideal day?
Go on. Get up at 4am
pump
yourself dry so there
isn't an ounce
of liquid left in your body, a lone milk
like you pump everything out so you kind of shrink
up like a raisin right so you're completely
dehydrated at this point. And I'd probably
look great.
Post a thirst trap.
Did you see what I posted to the MTG?
Did you see the fucking...
We've got a back catalogue.
We've got some problems.
Some real problems.
You're cured now.
You're hydrated now.
You're not as thirsty as you were.
No, do you know what?
A little bit of thirst going on now and then,
to be honest.
But back in the day,
I wasn't even screen grabbing.
Like I could do like,
and the fries.
Sorry, the pictures of the fries.
Sorry, can we just,
for people who haven't seen it,
I got access to some photos.
Do you know that we were slagging about
for the whole beep beep,
which you know the kind of,
what girls do sometimes,
and guys do it too,
that's kind of presenting a hot photo
with masquerading as a poignant moment
or a nap in Vogue's case.
There's a few nap moments, by the way.
I only sent you one.
Where she looks like a ride
and her body looks amazing
and she's like,
snoozy, snoozy nap time.
Full makeup.
Liar.
You look gorgeous though.
I mean, Jesus Christ.
If I look like that, I'd be posting first half of the day.
That was also back when I used to FaceTime the bejesus out of my face.
Back when you were hot, before you had the kids.
Do you know what?
There is a difference.
I have to say there's a difference in my face
shut up
no there isn't
there is a huge
I thought
I looked at some of the pictures
I was like
maybe if I dye my hair
a bit darker
now it's darker there
maybe if I got the last
10 years back
I looked back though
I nearly
there was one in particular
I was like
Joanne
never ever
let anyone see the light
of this day
because it's too
it was so embarrassing.
Oh, my God.
I was such a loser.
Whoever's following me and you followed me since then, thank you.
Thank you for sticking with me.
I appreciate it.
We've grown together.
The amount of people, though, that were saying to me, they're like, if an old Facebook memory pops up, like, I have to get rid of it.
It's so embarrassing sometimes.
And I was thinking, like, you know the way you do that delete tweet I think I'm gonna have to go back through my Instagram and
delete like 95% of it oh yeah you can hire a company to go back and basically delete all your
tweets some producer recommended it to me now I actually don't tweet so it doesn't matter but she
said that she had clients no it was an agent actually who kind of lost work because they'd
gotten a gig and then they turns out they used to be a fascist
yeah
yeah
I know someone
you know it happens
fascism was huge
in the noughties
is fascism not
not in anymore
we're not
we're not into it anymore
no I meant to
I meant to speech you about that actually
less of the fascism online folk
it's not doing us any favours
I'll take Mussolini off my wall
he's out
where are you now
my house
in London
Joanne was doing
her suction bagging
again yesterday
she's really turned
a corner that girl
well I'm moving out
Defo
yeah I've handed
my notice in
I'm out of this house
where are you moving to
well I'm not moving
anywhere
I'm going on the road
like a little circus act
I'll be gone from January
then February
January
I'm gone
for the whole month
then February
we're in the gaiety
for the tour
the ghosted tour
and then March
April
I'm gone to Australia
then May
I'm back in the UK
for the ghosted UK tour
so I'll figure something out
in May
but there's no point
so you just don't need
to get accommodation
until May
so basically
everything's getting
everything's getting suctioned
do you know what I'm going to do though
do you know what I'm going to do
and you're totally right
because I was sending about
footage of
the carnage
that is my bedroom
at the moment
it's always the same
I come back
from doing some shows
and the
suitcase explodes
and I'm trying to do
28 watches
blah blah blah
but em
I was suction packing
my life away
and folks like
why don't you just
hire a company
to do that
and I was like
you know what
you're fucking dead right
I've been working
very hard this year
I'm going to use
some of that money
I'm going to hire
someone to do it for me
but not even that
they're better at it
than you
because you'll get
rid of loads of stuff
they're perfectionists
yeah perfectionists
but I was quite surprised
she opened her bathroom cupboard.
I mean, it was an absolute mess.
But she had,
the intention was there.
You had those little boxes
within the drawers.
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
No, no, no.
Sorry, Vooj.
No, my bathroom
drawers are actually
highly organized.
Excuse you, me.
Excuse me, you.
Excuse.
Okay, maybe I saw something wrong,
but I'm pretty sure...
Around the chest of drawers is carnage,
but inside the drawers is quite organised.
We'll see what Jo thinks, will we?
I told...
Vogue, I said to you that was a private video.
That's basically...
This is like revenge.
What's that?
Is that organised?
Does that look organised, Jo? i can't see it oh okay
so the top of the drawers is not organized but inside the top two drawers is highly
it's less messy than i thought it was and you know i actually i'm very proud of you i think
you've done a fantastic job do you know what i did with regards to organizing and i thought i'd
give people a tip i'm sure people already do this you know the way you with regards to organizing? And I thought I'd give people a tip. I'm sure people already do this.
You know the way you get those emails and it's like,
you have to open them just so they are read,
so they're not part of your 3,000 unread emails.
I've started unsubscribing to everything that comes in
that I've subscribed to by accident.
Unsubscribed.
A great way I found of doing that,
I think we've spoken about it before,
lose all your bank cards.
No, why? Why? subscribed a great way i found of doing that i think we've spoken about before lose all your bank cards no why why because then all your direct you to cancel your cards all your direct debits bounce i mean yeah you can't get a mortgage but it means you don't you're not
subscribed to anything anymore it's great yeah i mean yeah you go to court there's a warrant out
for your arrest but you're not getting updates from whatever magazine he's totally nine years
ago oh no I don't subscribe
I'm not talking about that
I'm talking about like
things like
oh the new drop
from this brand
or this brand
and all
like there's some more now
look
I didn't subscribe to that
I didn't
like Morrison's
Morrison's
I didn't subscribe to you
where are you going to send it all
to your mom's house?
Your poor mom.
Well, how many bags?
How many bags?
I was kind of hoping you'd take a couple of these.
Fuck's sake.
Al's just moving out.
Now I've got you.
I was thinking to myself,
I was like, great, it's golf cups.
That mirror now, that'll go down to Vogue.
I was filming last night, right?
And I don't know if we spoke about this before
but I love a cow
we have spoken about my love of cows
I love cows
so much so that I eat them
but I do
I love a cow
I was with this farmer last night
his name was Thomas
that is the way
that is the way I love
if I really love you
I'll be nibbling on your foot
okay
exactly
I will slice you up if I love you I really love you, I'll be nibbling on your foot. Okay. Exactly. I will slice you up.
I will.
If I love you, I will.
I will.
I will slice you.
Little slice off the thigh.
Bit of olive oil.
So I met this fella called Thomas.
He's a farmer.
And I was talking to him last night because I read a story.
And you know the way sometimes you're like, that's not true.
I read a story about this woman who's just minding her own business, going for a walk
in a field and these group of cows beat her up like badly severely beat her up and they were all
like ramming into her and stuff like that and I thought that's very unlike a cow I don't know if
I believe that story asked Thomas last night and he said that the number like one way of a farmer
dying he's like that's the way I'm gonna die he was like I'm gonna have a cow trample me when i'm helping her give birth or something like that because they're really like
super protective animals of each other and obviously of their young so you have to be
really careful don't just cross a cow field you'll get battered what yes cows beat the
daylights out of you joe could we fact check any of this now? I asked Thomas the farmer last night
and farming is the number,
like you've a 70% chance of dying at home,
more at home if you're a farmer
than if you're not a farmer.
But that would make sense
because like if you're harvesting or something,
if you fell into your combine harvester.
I have to say,
do you know the Plowing Championships, Jo?
I've been to that.
Of course you have. You're the queen of collaborations. I can't imagine you know the clown championships Jo? I've been to that. Of course you have.
You're the queen
of collaborations.
I can't imagine
you didn't collab
with someone at the
clown championships.
Obviously I was brought
down by the Dairy Council.
Of course you were.
The Plenty Gilson
and Louis Walsh went down.
What a threesome.
I know.
I actually had
the best day.
It was a great day.
I'm surprised you didn't
try and sign the two of you
to some sort of girl band
do you know what
I nearly
I am telling you
I used to go
if you knew my old life
I used to go for auditions
I went for an audition
to a girl band
that Louis Walsh was doing
they end up doing shit
so I don't care that I didn't get it
but I got to like the last round
I was in this area
and we were like
dancing and singing
and I got to like
the last 12 or something
how on earth I got to the last 12?
Was it Jedward?
No, it wasn't Jedward.
Was it?
I can't remember what the band was.
Was it Six or something?
No, not Six.
But I didn't get in.
And anyway, they didn't make it,
so it doesn't bother me now.
But I used to do things.
I used to go to auditions like that.
Imagine how shite I was.
I know I was shite.
You had lights in your eyes.
I wanted to be in a girl band. So bad.
I still, I still,
I'd still be in a girl band. Imagine we were up
on stage, you and I, in a girl band.
We should reconsider our whole
tour and just, everyone's bought tickets.
Let's just turn it into us being
a girl band. No, no pod.
We know you've come to see the pod,
but we're dancing.
Oh, I went to Knock.
So I'm filming,
as you know,
I'm filming this show
in Ireland
and I flew into Knock.
I went to the lady
at the counter
because they had
the best sweets,
the best sweets.
So I went and stocked up
on like fizzy Chewits
and stuff
and I went to the lady
at the counter
and she's like,
what are you doing over here?
And I was like,
sorry, Vogue, Vogue, Vogue.
Yeah.
I feel like I'm your translator at times.
No one in the UK is going to know what Knock is.
Oh.
Knock is a really tiny airport in Ireland.
And I was filming out the west of Ireland.
I hope I'm right saying that.
Because I'll tell you why now.
So I was filming out the west of Ireland
and we have really nice suites in Ireland,
like fizzy chew-its and stuff.
And we've got like these golf balls that are chewing gums and flumps.
I'm sure everyone knows what a flump is. One of my favorite ever sweets.
And so I was stocking up and your woman was like, so what are you doing out here?
And I was like, I'm off to Mayo. She was like, you're in Mayo.
So Knock is in Mayo. But so I went to film.
I was filming on Achill Island and sure didn't it bring me right back
to when I went there
for Irish College
and because it's
such a small island
I was like
is Martin
still doing the
Irish Colleges
and they were like
yeah he is doing
the Irish Colleges
and I could remember
his face
they put me on the phone
to Martin
we were chatting
about the year
I was there
sorry Vogue
again who the fuck
is Martin
Martin
okay so I went to the Gael Talked.
God, I'm so bad at telling stories.
This is why I'm not a comedian.
I forget things that people don't know.
Okay, so I was in Achill
and when I was younger,
I went to the Gael Talked in Achill
and if you're not from Ireland,
the Gael Talked is basically
you go to a summer camp
for like two weeks
and you learn Irish
and you're only allowed to speak Irish
down there or you get sent home
or you get threatened to be sent home
and so I got to Achill and because it's
a small island I was asking them
is Marcin still in charge of the Gael talk
Marcin is still in charge of the Gael talk
and he has made it the biggest
Gael talk ever and they put me
on the phone to Marcin and I was talking to him
about the Gael talk. How?
As Gaeilge? No, not As Gaeilge
obviously I was As Béarla
I'm terrible at Irish Béarla I'm terrible
as Irish
Béarla means English Jo
em
you're a Béarla
Jo
yeah Jo
sorry
you Béarla bastard
no I don't think that's how it works
but anyway go on
look at you
you Béarla
firstly
just to give a bit of context
because em
we
sit between well two countries now really, Vogue.
We do, yeah.
Knock Airport is like the size of, like I've only seen photos of it and it's clearly with the fisheye lens and it's still the size of a TikTok.
But it was built by a priest.
Was it?
Because, yeah.
Do you know this story?
So basically during the recession
Charlie Hawhey was involved
obviously
Charlie Hawhey
again Joe
Charlie Hawhey
loved a bread envelope
ran oiled into the ground
according to my mother
but em
it was after Pope Francis visited
my nanny loves Charlie Hawhey
it was after Pope Francis visited
and then
he went off
and this
Monsieur
this like
high end priest
they become Monsieur's
they run out of titles
you can't just be a priest anymore
you're a Monsieur
he was like
Mayo deserves an airport
because there's a shrine
in Knock
where Our Lady
i.e. Mary
appeared with
I think it's a lamb
I knew that
a lamb or a llama
I think it was a lamb
and so
that in the
I don't know
60s or something
I don't know
so anyway he was like
we need people to come on a pilgrimage
and not have to deal with Dublin.
They could just pilgrim straight to Knox.
So that's how it was built.
This is what I was going to say.
If I come back from the dead, which I will,
I'm going to appear somewhere, but with something like a Jack Russell
or a parrot, wouldn't that be great?
Rather than the lamb.
The lamb's always, it's always a lamb that comes back.
I don't believe that.
I'm going to spice it up.
She wouldn't come back with a lamb.
Why would she be back with a lamb?
The sacrificial lamb.
The lamb.
The holy lamb.
She's already going to come back with a dog.
Why not?
Because she didn't sacrifice dogs.
It was the lamb that you sacrificed.
The lamb, lamb, lamb, lamb, lamb.
Easter, lamb, lambs are holy.
I didn't know lambs were holy.
They're delicious.
Okay, so I don't have to.
Imagine she came back
holding a horse.
Joanne will be coming back
holding a horse.
Made a little Shetland pony.
I, yeah.
I told you I'm coming back
as a poltergeist.
It's the only way
to properly leave your mark.
You'll know about it as well, Joanne,
because I'm going to come
for you first.
Poltergeist mess shit up.
You'll be,
what the fuck
this is great
I'm haunted by Vogue
she's tidying everything away
that would be my dream
afterlife
just cleaning
and my dream day
I wouldn't get up
at four in the morning
by the way
obviously
oh sorry
the dream day
so this is the dream day
so you're up at 4am
you've breastfed everyone. You do a triathlon.
Okay, we're getting there. We're getting there.
You've swam up and down the Thames.
No, too cold.
Oh.
I don't like cold water.
You've done, you've run around Battersea Park. You've done 12 sessions of John Belton. You've
brought out a new clothesline. You've taken nine thirst traps. You've birth around Battersea Park. You've done 12 sessions of John Belton. You've brought out a new clothesline.
You've taken nine thirst traps.
You've birthed three children.
You've pretended to write another book.
Excuse me, we'll leave that up to you, right?
You're signing contracts.
She's 12 hands signing contracts, putting out fires.
She's doing a full
Alan Sugar on it
she's walking
and she talks
walk and talk
doing meetings
then I don't know
oh yeah
then you suck a dip dab
and go to bed
no my real dream day
I wouldn't get up
till seven
thank you very much
I would definitely
train with John Belton
I would go for a walk
on the cliffs of Hoth
then I would go to East
I'd get wings I'd get oysters I'd get crab claws and then I'd go for a walk on the Cliffs of Hoth. Then I would go to East. I'd get wings. I'd get oysters.
I'd get crab claws.
And then I'd go for another walk with a different group of
friends along the pier, possibly, because I'm tired
from the cliffs. Then I
would go home. I'd organise something.
Yeah.
A riot. I'd clean
out my freezer.
Yeah. Oh yeah, you'd have to
defrost something. Jesus Jesus absolutely defrosting
something
I would then get
a takeaway of
the Chinese down the road
839
1473
I will have
honey ribs please
and
beef and black bean sauce
thank you very much
with egg fried rice
thank you
see you in 10 minutes
you really are
like and it kind of goes
against what you think
but you're practically
a cannibal
like there isn't
you're just like ripping animals apart for breakfast and all.
Like, there isn't a meal that goes past.
She hasn't a fucking rib hanging out of her mouth
or a wing or a foot or something.
I have to say, unless there's a bit of meat...
You deserve to get beaten to death by a cow.
I hope that's how you go.
I wish I hadn't told you that.
I wish I hadn't told you that
because you'd be the stupid idiot
that would walk into the field.
I didn't know cows were violent
now I have to say.
Now a pig would grind your bones.
If you ever,
now if you ever overindulge on a night
I could chuck you in a pig pen
you'd be gone.
I wouldn't even see you the next morning.
There'd be nothing left.
There'd be a scrunchie.
That'd be it.
But they'd be very happy pigs.
Can you imagine?
Very happy pigs.
pigs can you imagine very happy pigs
Theodore actually
asked me the other day
if he was allowed
to say Jesus
I said no
you can't say Jesus
you can't use his name
in vain
if you want to talk
to him you can use his name
yeah exactly
that's exactly right
I saw something
that said I was
going into the celebrity jungle.
I love that they do this every year.
They just like make up people who are going in.
I'm not going into the jungle.
I might be going in.
Joanne, you'd be great on it.
First of all, I'm a loser and I wouldn't leave my kids for two weeks.
And second of all, if anyone has seen me when I'm confronted by a wasp or any kind of bug you'll understand why I would not be able to go on that
show I'd look like an absolute lunatic but you've done you did your reality you did Bear Grylls you
did it you won I just you proved your point exactly I don't think I'd spend that long away
from my family I think I know I can't say this for sure but maybe I was asked to do SAS
and and I'd love to do
something like that
because I'd find that
like fun
to do a challenge like that.
But I just honestly,
I know it's pathetic.
I couldn't go away
for two weeks.
I'd miss everyone too much.
Is it only two weeks?
That's a long time for me.
My God.
It feels like it goes on
for longer.
No, I'm a celebrity.
I think it's three weeks long.
Oh yeah, okay, fine.
Will I tell you
who's tipped to go in
yes
I do like watching
that show I have to say
our friend
or not
boy George
yeah I remember
boy George
I do indeed
I don't
that's funny
we've got
we've got beef with boy
we do have beef with boy
I'll tell you who I won't
he basically didn't
he didn't follow either
it was back after we both
met him on different shows.
Well, it was way worse for me.
And we hope he noticed.
Yeah.
I won't be voting for you.
It was way worse for me.
He followed everybody else
on my show except me.
He took a personal grudge against me.
We were desperate for the attention
of Boy George.
He didn't give it to us.
He's a lovely man though.
Go on. He is. He is
a nice man in fairness. Mike Tindall.
I did
Bear Grylls with him.
One of the nicest men on the planet.
He's a very kind man.
I'm not familiar with Mike. He's a rugby
player and he's married to
the royal Zara Tindall who's also
a lovely person. Oh
yeah. I kind of, yeah. Kind of.
Yeah.
I think I know who he is.
Yeah.
I reckon I'm going to put my money on Mike because he's such a nice person and he's very able.
So I reckon he would probably win it.
Sean Walsh is tipped to go in.
I love a bit of Sean.
Olivia Atwood, who is on.
I'd vote for Sean if he went in.
I'd vote for Sean.
OK, I'm going to vote for Mike Tindall.
You vote for Sean.
We'll see who we can get to win. I do love when they tell who's gonna be who's gonna be honest I think I think
that seems like a good a good group of people and also you wouldn't have caught me dead particularly
in that castle it looked absolutely there's nothing I find worse than being cold I had two
water bottles last night when we were filming one down the front of my trousers and one down the
back of my trousers I can't bear being cold
I actually
do you know what
there was definitely a conversation
had about me doing
Celebrity Jungle
and
you've just reminded me
it was actually the year
they were going to Wales
Joanne you wouldn't have
lasted a second
so I said
it wasn't the right time
for me anyway
but I was like
well I'm definitely not going to do it
if you're going to Wales
come on
now we love Wales
we do love Wales
but like it's too cold
to be outside in Wales
what I mean is
look I'm a huge fan of Wales
a lot of my friends
have been there
I thought you were
going to say
a lot of my friends
are Welsh
I was like
that lying bitch
a lot of my friends
have passed through Wales
at times
when we get the ferry
we drive through there quite a bit.
Yeah, I've heard of Wales, okay?
There's a sexy thing about a Welsh accent though, like that would get me now.
A guy, it doesn't matter what you look like, if you're hitting me with a Welsh accent,
get in the car.
You're coming home.
Let's talk about the hot topic of this week james corden james corden james now i'm pretty sure
we've spoken a little bit about james corden before and when we spoke about him we definitely
said that he has he's he's meant to be an arsehole but anyone could say you're meant to be an arsehole
right okay so this week james corden he is he was on a TV show over in the UK and he was a host, a TV host over here in the UK.
And then he moved to America and he's got this huge hosting job over there. And wherever James
Corden goes, it seems to follow him that he's an arsehole. People that work for him say he's
an arsehole. Places he go, people say he was an arsehole places he go people say he was an arsehole well he took it a little bit too far
and he went to this restaurant called Balthazar
in New York
and he supposedly
abused two of the wait staff
one of them because
he said that they had gotten a tiny
bit of egg yolk in his wife's
egg white omelette
no other way around weirdly what? she of egg yolk in his wife's egg white omelette. No, other way around, weirdly.
What? She wanted egg
yolk and they put in egg white. I know.
Well, that's just unacceptable.
You can't order that.
No.
It does seem really bizarre, doesn't it?
Especially in America, they're all like
fitness mad that usually it's just egg whites.
But like, she wanted egg yolks.
Which in America, it's like having a
scrambled mars bar like yeah they went in with their fingers up being like fuck you i want the
egg yes oh my god and they would have had loads of egg yolks left over because you're right they
don't eat them over there but he went in anyway he was given eight and like joanne you have said
this to me before right that you're you wouldn't even like give out if something was bad about your
meal because like you don't want to be called out if something was bad about your meal because like
you don't want to be called out for something like that I will would have to disagree with you
if something was really bad with my meal like if I ordered a steak rare and it came well done like
I can't eat that steak I can't enjoy that steak so I would I'm talking about meat again again. I have lollipops of just like lumps of chicken downstairs. I just walk around eating a
lollipop, gnawing on a wing. No, so I wouldn't be able to eat it. So I'd send it back, but it'd be
really nice about it. And I think that particularly with waitstaff, I used to work in restaurants for
years and years and years and people could be like so rude
to you for no reason like if they're in a bad mood and they take it out on you that can ruin your
whole day and you've done nothing wrong um and I there's nothing worse when you hear of someone
being an arsehole but that's not to say you can't send something back it's the way you send it back
well I think firstly your man who runs the restaurant Balthazar from the small bit of reading
that I've done he's a bit thirsty himself and he tends to do this he like he's kind of famous for
publicly banning celebrities and then welcoming them back and it's all pure for him as well
if I was him and I think it's Keith McNally actually yes it is I wouldn't I wouldn't be
telling the world that there was fucking hair in my food because there was a hair in a food now
I don't mind hair in a food I'll eat around it because i'm disgusting no no i know i
couldn't they always think he's nodding he's just i'll just eat around her what the two of you would
eat around a hair like no the one thing i will not accept is runny eggs if i've asked for hard
eggs i will send them back but anything else i would very i wouldn't really bother my hell
but the james corden thing i think the the problem with James is he's overexposed
and it's trendy to not like James.
It's like, he's like a culotte,
do you know what I mean?
Or a Tamagotchi.
It's like a trend to hate James Corden.
He's basically a human crock.
He's everywhere and everyone hates him.
I'm not going to jump on the bandwagon.
I think, given the benefit of the doubt,
but I do think Kat sent people over the edge.
I think that was kind of the final straw for him. I think given the benefit of the doubt but I do think Kat sent people over the edge I think that was
kind of the final
straw for him
I think he seems
okay
also this is what
I say all the time
stop expecting
celebrities to be
sound
think of them as
evil puppets in
your television
and then you won't
be disappointed
they're just evil
puppets in your
tally
listen to me
I'm just saying
that he apologised
to your man
from Balthasar
and I'm sorry
I actually am
going to say
something as well
Balthasar is not
that great
not that great
very hard to get a table not that great I'm just saying I'm just saying see there as well Balthazar's not that great not that great very hard to get a table
not that great
I'm just saying
I'm just saying
see there you go
it's obviously not great
there's hairs in the food
yeah but like
the thing about it is
he apologised
so obviously he was really rude
to the service
so he apologised to your man
and then the next day
he does an interview
with the New York Times
and he's like
I did nothing wrong
blah blah blah
like which one is it James
you either apologise
and say that I shouldn't
have been an arsehole to staff
or you're kind of nice.
And just like, if you don't like the food, grand, send it back.
But don't ruin someone else's day because you're grumpy.
Eggs are, it's always eggs.
It's always eggs.
Eggs are problematic.
So apparently once he was, someone was on a show and they dared him.
They were like, name two cameramen who basically have worked on the show for years or drink a fish smoothie.
And he had to drink the fish smoothie.
What? He couldn't even name the cameraman?
Well, I mean, we called Joe Joe because I couldn't remember his name.
Fuck, I called him Joe.
Joe, what is your name?
Who cares?
Shut up.
Back in your box, Back in your box.
Back in your box.
That is...
Now, that's terrible.
Come on.
That is terrible.
Tony Robbins.
I find him odd.
I'm sorry.
There's something odd about him to me.
My favourite thing is that he jumps up and down
a miniature trampoline before he goes on stage.
Something I think we should look into
for our ghosted tour.
Get the energy up. Get the blood flowing to the head.
Did you ever see that trampoline thing?
I posted it again recently and it's literally like,
I'm fine, dry.
And then you're like bouncing on these trampolines
and they've got this mad techno music
and you've got like two trampolines.
Bounce on one, bounce on the other one.
We'll get that.
I'll find it.
Don't worry, I'm going to get that teacher.
We'll do that before the show.
That would...
Tony Robbins, Vogue.
Tony Robbins. Okay, sorry. I really want to get that teacher. We'll do that before the show. That would... Tony Robbins, Vogue. Tony Robbins.
Okay, sorry.
I really want to do the trampoline.
Tony Robbins, Vogue.
Can I just say one thing about Tony Robbins?
You love talking about him.
You've brought him up about three times now.
Yeah, you fancy him.
Well, he's a huge character.
Like, it's like, he's Tony.
Go on, tell me.
Tony Robbins.
So I did
I just
I googled a bit of like
celebrities behaving badly
in restaurants
oh
Julia Roberts
tips 100%
I like Julia Roberts
and apparently
she's mad for the
Grey Goose vodka
while her twins
won riot in restaurants
she just slams down
the vodkas
and then tips 100%
Tony Robbins
apparently he was in this
restaurant
and the bill was like
two grand
and he spoke at the table
and then he left
and they're like
you have to pay us
and he goes
I'm not paying you
I didn't make the booking
and they're like
but it's two grand
and he's like
tough shit I'm not paying
what?
yeah
self help guru
helping himself
I didn't
yeah he's like
I didn't make the booking
they're like
but it's your name
and the booking
and everyone left
and you were at the top
of the table and he's like I'm not paying some people are do you know what do you know now in fairness like I didn't make the booking they're like but it's your name and the booking and everyone left and you were at the top of the table
and he's like
I'm not paying
some people are
do you know what
do you know
now in fairness
like I'm not
I'm not actually
excusing him at all
but maybe he's so famous
and his friends
always make him pay
and he's like
this is bullshit
I've had enough
I feel that's quite
personal to you
about that
that felt quite pointed
it absolutely is not
I actually
I went for lunch
the other day
and I went to pay
and my friend
had paid for me
because I had done her a favor.
And I thought, that's very nice, but it also makes me feel a bit guilty.
But thank you for my crab claws.
Actually, back to Tony Robbins for a second now that you've brought him up.
Imagine paying to go to his show.
I would go.
I find him very inspiring.
I find him very motivational because he just fires information at you and I don't retain any of it.
Basically, the bottom line is the only celebrity I don't retain any of it. Basically,
the bottom line is the only celebrity
you can trust
is Colin Farrell.
Joanne,
I know I love Prada Peter
so I'm not saying anything
about Prada Peter.
I'd love if you
went out with Colin Farrell.
I know.
You'd be great together.
Actually, no way.
I think he doesn't drink anymore.
Oh, Christ.
I think that's it now.
Sober sex with Colin Farrell.
If I was going to write
anyone sober,
it'd be Colin Farrell.
There, I said it. Jo, make that happen, will you? And if Joanne's too busy, I'm also available, no. Sober sex with Colin Farrell. If I was going to write anyone sober, it'd be Colin Farrell. There, I said it.
Joe, make that happen, will you?
And if Joanne's too busy,
I'm also available, Colin.
Okay?
We'll pleasure him simultaneously.
I'll take the mouth.
I'll do the affectionate stuff
like kissing his face
and rubbing his hands and stuff.
And then you can, I don't know.
No, you do the blowies.
I'm doing the mouth.
No, your mouth is bigger bigger we want to give Colin
the full experience
we don't want him
to leave us folk
it has to be good
he could have two dicks
it's Colin Farrell
you don't know
this is
absolutely
true
Spenny does think
he looks like Colin Farrell
I'm like
he doesn't
no in fairness
he doesn't
it's the same hair colour
that's it
Spenny's got a rich head
Colin Farrell's got like a
soul to the earth head
yeah he does yeah
do you want to hear about
other celebrities
that got banned from places
this is a great one
Lindsay Lohan
was banned from a hotel
for not paying her
$46,350 bill
like
I wouldn't really care
if I was banned if they let me away with nearly
50 grand's worth of hotel fees, fine.
Bar me. On to the next.
So true. You're like, oh
no.
James Corden's obviously
in there. What other ones did I like?
Britney Spears got kicked out of Chateau Marmont.
She smeared a plate of gourmet
food on her face and the guests
complained. Oh, wow. But
also, I don't think I'd even go out of my way to complain that someone was smearing food on their
face. Once they weren't smearing it on my face, I'm just kind of happy for people to do whatever
they want. It's Britney Spears, bitch. Like, do you know what I mean? You're getting a full
performance. Leave her alone. I might not follow her, but like, leave her alone. might not follow her but like leave her alone to see Madonna's
looking for a new trainer what do you mean so Madonna in I don't know what's going on with
magic at the moment but anyway she put up an insta story basically she's looking for a trainer
someone has to have the experience or sorry not a trainer yeah no it is a trainer it's a trainer
but I think it's a dance dance trainer and fitness they're willing to kind of relocate to New York
it shows you're kind of lifting weights and then kind of gently masturbating at the end it's all
very odd I don't know I don't know is I don't I think Madonna feels like she's hit that age where
my mom said that like she's hit a certain age and it's like people just like look past you
and maybe that's what happened to Madonna and she's like listen you won't be looking past me
and no one looks past Madonna
let's be honest
yeah it's the invisibility
it's the invisibility factor
for women
that's what happens to women
apparently
we get invisible
that's why I wear so much high vis
I'm not fucking going down
I better highlight her
so the last banning
Will Smith
10 years banned
from the Oscars
10 years
well he's probably delighted because like I mean I'd love to go to the Oscars 10 years well he's probably delighted
because like
I mean
I'd love to go to the Oscars
obviously because I'll never get to go
so you're like
I'd love to go
but if you're going all the time
you'd be like
this is a bit boring
he won't be missed
I really
at the time
that was very hard to
kind of hard to absorb
at the time
I know
in hindsight
now I will tell you
it's really bad
I know but he has an amazing movie
coming out that I've
seen a trailer for
and I think that
that's going to bring
him back for everybody.
I really like Will Smith.
I don't
I find his family
bother me for some reason.
I don't know why
I just have a thing
about his family.
I'm not mad for them.
Yeah they're a bit smug.
Anyway look it comes back
it comes back to the theory
evil puppets in the telly.
Evil puppets.
Evil puppets in the tally yeah evil puppets evil puppets in the tally
the only girl band
I would even consider
joining is Girls Aloud
I'd love to be in
Girls Aloud
that was
or come on
the Spice Girls
you could be in
Girls Aloud
I'll be in the Spice Girls
actually shit
hold on
what have I done I read an interesting
article this week
and I thought
I'd like to share it
with you Vogue
okay go
do you know
what patron saint
yeah
obviously there's like
Saint Anthony
if you've lost things
or the child of Prague
for the weather
and all that jazz
I have beef
with Saint Anthony
by the way
I lost a really nice
ring of mine
and he still hasn't come up
with the goods.
Fucking St. Anthony.
Probably took it.
I'd say he's got a very successful
pawn shop up in the clouds.
Absolutely.
Now, I'm really shocked
because I'm telling you,
he finds everything, Joe.
I am not joking you.
He finds everything.
And I was actually quite surprised.
He might have been having a day off.
Maybe I'll try him again next week when I get home I wonder has he found my dignity I'll pray
to him later um so anyway it turns out there's let me get Patron saints for like everything.
Like the most random stuff.
Like?
Murderers have their own patron saint.
Do they?
What's their patron saint?
Saint Julian.
So apparently he set up this hostel back in the day.
I like to say back in the day.
It could have been 60 AD.
It could have been 2004.
I don't know.
Okay. He set up a hostel back in the day, it could have been 60 AD, it could have been 2004. I don't know, okay?
But he set up a hostel back in the day,
but it was because
he killed his parents.
Anyway, he became
the patron saint of murderers.
Of course they'd be praying
to kill time, not people.
Then,
Saint Drogo,
patron saint of the mingin.
Of the mingin?
Yeah.
Patron saint of the unattractive.
Ah, list that.
So we pray to him in the morning, V list that. Pray to him in the morning,
Vogue.
We pray to him in the morning.
We have
Saint Giles.
Yeah.
Who apparently
went out again
back in the day.
It could be in the 80s.
Could have been 3 BC.
I don't know.
But it was back in the day.
He went,
he lived as a hermit
and lived off
the breast milk of a deer.
So he's now the painter
and saint of
breastfeeding
and Edinburgh
strangely
so if you wake up in Edinburgh
with your tits hanging out
you've obviously
prayed too hard to St. Giles
oh god
St. Nicholas
now this is a bit odd
that's Santa Claus
yeah so he obviously
got a big promotion
but St. Nicholas
is
was patron saint of
sailors
thieves
prostitutes
students
and unmarried people
weird cohort of people who are just praying not to get an sti i don't know or like basically just
he's patron saint of anyone who can't get a mortgage from what is he also santa yeah and
then he got promoted he's santa now so i don't know okay do you know there's a saint vogue i
can't find it but my auntie told me there's a patron saint
Vogue
I'm telling you
Saint Isidore
patron saint
of the internet
what
who was alive
in 600 AD
so probably has the
tech skills of you and me
put together Vogue
basically yeah
he's the patron saint
of the reboot
I don't know how he got that job
that's a bit stupid
the Pope gives
Pope Genie when he goes to he's like alright this is a how he got that job. That's a bit stupid. The Pope gives, the Pope genuinely goes to,
he's like,
all right,
this is a new thing
called the internet,
right,
it needs a sound.
Who's up?
Isidore.
Well,
that's because he probably
doesn't have anything else
to be doing with himself.
Well,
in fairness,
the Pope is probably a busy man.
But you know what?
Why are the Popes
always so old?
Why don't they get someone young?
They just have to work
their way up.
You can't just wake up a Pope.
Well,
Rishi Sunak is the youngest Prime Minister now that they've ever had. He is have to work their way up. You can't just wake up a Pope. Well Rishi Sunak is the youngest
Prime Minister now
that they've ever had.
He is yeah
and the richest.
How rich is he?
Here Saint Adrian
well his wife
is a billionaire
Saint Adrian of Nicodemia
painting Saint
of the Arms Dealers.
My God
I would have thought
the guns were protection enough
apparently not
they need a painting Saint.
Saint Claudilde
is painting Saint
of Disappointing Children. Now What are you trying to say? Apparently not. They need a patron saint. Saint Claudilde is patron saint of disappointing children.
No.
What are you trying to say?
I'm trying to say
Gigi better
acquaint yourself
with Saint
Colaltailed.
My mom came home
from Spain
yesterday
and she came up to Gigi.
I wasn't hearing she rhyming.
She's like,
Gigi didn't play strange at me.
She was really nice to me.
I was thrilled. Yeah, she knows what she's doing. She's like, she didn't play strange at me. She was really nice to me. I was thrilled.
Yeah, she knows what she's doing.
It's coercive control.
We're all in a coercive control relationship with Gigi.
We're being coercively controlled.
St. Barbara,
paint a saint of anything that goes boom.
Fireworks, artillery, lighting.
Joanne sat at home looking at all this stuff.
After her hieroglyphics lesson,
she decided to move on to saints.
Always broadening that mind.
St. Barbara.
So if your phone charger
starts fizzing,
pray to St. Barbara.
Don't. Unplug it.
House responsibly.
Thanks for that.
I'm enlightened.
Why didn't you find St. Vogue?
There's a St. Vogue
and I can't find it.
I've Googled it.
I think it's bullshit, mate.
It's not bullshit.
My auntie told me that...
I'm going to text her. My auntie told me that... I'm going to text her.
My auntie told me
