Hello and welcome to My Therapist Ghosted Me with me, Vogue Williams and Joanne McNally.
Jingle bells, jingle bells Jingle bells.
Jingle bells.
Jingle bells.
Are we going to make a knot?
By now it's Friday.
It's Friday now.
So people aren't very Christmassy anymore.
Oh, we're not Christmassy?
We're not?
Sorry, I am.
All right, sorry.
I mean, some people are.
All right, Scrooge.
You don't know.
Joe, you have to respect.
You don't know how long we decide to take.
Christmas. what is it
what is the
women's Christmas
what is that little Christmas
Nullig Manor
that's on the 7th
of Jan isn't it
no I was talking about
Spanish Christmas
where they do it on like
the 6th of Jan
or something like that
see Jo
stop being a Christmas
ok sorry
Merry Christmas everyone
selfish Christmas man
Jingle bells January 6th
there's no look
when all
when the women
get to sit down
after all the work
they've done over Christmas
it's a bit
it's a bit dated
but we've kind of
we've taken it back
culturally in Ireland
and it's a big day out
no do you know what
I'm going to keep that
because I was actually
going to say
and I didn't want to
sound like a moany
hole bitch
but like this will be
the first cup of tea
I have sat down
and drank
without holding someone in my arms without walking around having to do like this will be the first cup of tea I have sat down and drank without holding someone in my arms, without walking around having to do like this will be the first one I've gotten through.
I swear.
Why are you celebrating a Spanish Christmas?
My mom lives in Spain.
Again, Sandra's been out, by the way, because you know the way Sandra is.
It's like, oh, well, it's lovely down here.
Well, she's been texting us.
It's barbecue weather today at Christmas. She's like, it's like, Mom,
it's boring there at Christmas. We've been, we're not
coming back. I'm sorry
now. I'm sorry, but I've been
very clear about my feelings around
weather and Christmas. I spent
one Christmas in Australia.
No, like no offense to
our Aussie listeners, but I
just found it completely discombobulating.
My flip-flops were melting
into the tarmac.
It was so hot.
Yeah, that...
It was just weird.
It was like drinking soup
at the beach.
I just found the whole thing strange
and I wouldn't do it again,
to be honest.
I just wouldn't do it again.
I'll tell you what,
I drank tea at the beach
and I went,
I had Christmas in St. Barth
one year
and we didn't have any turkey,
but I was in St. Barth
at Christmas
and I would like to go there again.
Okay? Well, I'm sorry. It wasn't Christmas then, V St. Barth's at Christmas and I would like to go there again. Okay?
Well, I'm sorry.
It wasn't Christmas then, Vogue.
If you've no turkey and it was hot, it wasn't Christmas.
That was spring break.
Here.
Sorry now.
You know the way you don't...
Stop fucking with the system, Vogue.
Stop fucking with the system.
Misery guts over there.
Well, I'm in a very snowy Scotland at the moment.
It's amazing.
Oh, chickens.
Chickens.
Chickens.
You know the way you eat chickens
because you think they're assholes?
Well, I've had...
I never...
Hold on a second, Meg.
Joanne, your exact words were
that chicken is a fucking arsehole.
That's what you said to me.
I never said that.
I said that I didn't really connect with them
on a cerebral level
like I do with other animals.
So I found it hard to feel guilty
about eating chickens.
I never called them assholes. I'll tell you what, I'm going to
start eating chicken for breakfast after what I
heard. Supposedly, they
murder each other. There's a gang of chickens
up here, right? Gang of chickens.
There's only five of them left. Some kind of otter
ate a couple of them.
Foxes sometimes get them. Now they have got
like an enclosure. Anyway,
they slowly kill each other.
Like this gang are particularly violent, I think, the strain of chicken. And they peck away at each
other. Yeah. And they claw each other and they'll pick one out. Like they don't like just kill you
in one go. They pick one out of the flock. What is it? A flock of chickens? I don't know.
We'll call them a school of chickens because we don't know.
A school flock gaggle of chickens.
A gaggle of chickens, yeah.
Yeah, and they attack each other
and slowly kill each other.
I'm sorry now, Vogue.
I'm sorry now.
But did you think the animal world
was just some sort of petting zoo
where they all held hands?
Animals are savage.
Especially chickens though.
Chickens are evil.
Especially chickens.
The only reason Winnie isn't trying to kill everyone
is because you have him heavily sedated.
Exactly.
He's lying here beside me.
Sorry, one more animal fact that I
found out the other day, right?
Dinosaurs are full of
hair. They're fluffy. They've got these
huge feathers. So they got it wrong.
Google dinosaurs. They're actually
full of hair, which kind of ruins
everything. I'm going to have to buy new toys and stuff now
because the other ones are wrong. Folks, this sounds very
like you got children's trivial pursuit for Christmas if I'm going to have to buy new toys and stuff now because the other ones are wrong. Folks, this sounds very like you got children's Trivial Pursuit for Christmas
if I'm honest.
There's a lot of very basic animal facts going
on. I knew dinosaurs had feathers.
That's where chickens come from. Chickens are tiny
dinosaurs. Yes, Joanne! I also got
children's Trivial Pursuit for Christmas.
Chickens are the dinosaur's closest relatives.
You're right! I know!
But you know what's so funny? So me and Alan bought
Trivial Pursuituit but I didn't realise
there was a children's section
and an adult section
and I was giving him
the children's questions
and he still couldn't
fucking get any of them right
he was like
I'm not sure Trivial Pursuit
is multiple choice
and I was like
it is
I don't like games like that
that are so hard
and question my intelligence
and I was like
you're doing great honey
you're doing great
well done
but sorry
yeah so just to clear that up i never just to be
i never just on the record i never called them i never called chickens well when she was up here
in scotland she was she went into the chicken pen and was kicking them around the bed i was yeah
get over here you beating them with sticks but um you know me and vogue have kind of a rolling
document for ghosted where we just kind of throw in bits that we think we might talk about on the pod and um sometimes they get misconstrued as actual
topics because I send in drunk stuff and chicken hips came back as a topic for conversation I was
like chicken hips I put that in what was I talking about and then I was like oh yeah because we were
eating a chicken obviously over Christmas I was like hold hold on. I'd had a couple of drinks and I was like, hold on a second here.
It's got tits.
It's got legs.
It's got thighs.
It's got feet.
Why the fuck are its hips?
And I thought this was some amazing moment.
You do put a lot of, where are their hips actually?
Exactly.
You do put some strange things in the dog.
Joe, Google it there, will you?
Chicken hips.
Why do they have no hips? How are they getting around? How do they have that much mobility with no hips. Joe, Google it there, will you? Chicken hips. Why do they have no hips?
How are they getting around?
How do they have that much mobility with no hips, Joe?
Google it.
They also have no lips.
Chicken, no hips, no lips.
They have beaks.
Imagine putting leaps on a beak.
A leap on a beak?
Imagine trying to put a set of lips on a beak.
I think it'd look great.
They'd look mad.
They'd look mad.
They do have hips.
They do have hips. Okay, Joe.
What?
I nearly started
crying yesterday. No, that was actually this morning.
All the days are getting confused. I nearly started
crying because I went in. Spenny slept with
Gigi because she was whinging.
T had a sleepover with his nanny.
And I was stuck with Otto, who never
stops waking up. And I went in to Spenny at six in the morning and I was like, get out. Get out of that bed. I was stuck with Otto who never stops waking up and I went into
spending at six
in the morning
and I was like
get out
get out of that bed
I was like
go in there
I'm not doing it anymore
and I just got into
Shishi's bed
I just can't take it
anyway
I'm having a great time
well I have to say
you look amazing
as always
thanks Joanne
you have seen
better days
people are going to think I'm being a mean bitch she just looks like You have seen better days.
People are going to think I'm being a mean bitch.
She just looks like she's been,
she looks like she's been fighting with the chickens again.
I look like I have been dragged backwards through Santa's bush
and kicked out the back of a sleigh.
So basically,
the reason there's no video today,
firstly, I'm in full-blown Christmas mode and I just, that's not a time video today. Firstly, I'm in full blown Christmas mode.
And I just, it's, that's not a time to be videoed.
Okay.
Secondly, I woke up on Christmas day.
My eyes were a little tight.
And I got up and basically my face had exploded with some allergic reaction.
And I'd have, all around my eyes, I looked like a crustacean.
I looked like a lobster.
Yeah.
Actually.
You did actually, you did.
Really swollen, all crusted around, like gross. Like a fucking, I had a face like a lobster. Yeah. Actually. You did actually. You did. Really swollen. All crusted around.
Like gross.
Like a fucking.
I had a face like a porcupine.
And I was trying to figure out what it was.
Because it's clearly an allergic reaction.
And mum was like.
Is it shellfish?
And I was like.
Well if it is.
It looks like I've eaten the entire wild Atlantic way.
Like.
I look like I've been rubbing my face in salmon.
All night.
Anyway.
We reckon it's maybe an allergic reaction to an eye cream
or something. Also my rosacea is back and it's just, it's just not, it's just not a time to have
a video on. But when the, when the allergy thing kicked off, I was, I'd also eaten a box of cashew
nuts the night before. Now we knew it wasn't anything like that because it actually started
on Christmas Eve a little bit, but I just didn't think anything. I just kind of thought it would
go away.
What, your eyes already started swelling?
Like, did you have to be,
did you have to go to dinner
like that at the hotel?
Yeah.
Oh no.
I know, what could I do?
At least no one recognised you.
I was in Paris Court Hotel
and it was me and my mum
and Alan
so I could hardly
not go.
I could not go to dinner.
But, so I just kind of padded it up
and I put on a blouse and all. Like, it was all pathetic. I was like, go to dinner. So I just kind of padded it up. I put on a blouse and all.
It was all pathetic.
A blouse.
It's not sore.
It's just really, really itchy and scratchy.
Anyway, then I was thinking about peanut allergies.
Because you know the way there's a rise in food allergies at the moment.
And they're saying they think it's some sort of hygiene hypothesis.
I like we're just to kind of live to clean a life basically now that we can't handle any
allergies but peanut allergies are on the rise i was like imagine have you ever been on a flight
yes where they tell you you can't have a peanut yeah but i was like because they're like with
someone with a severe peanut allergy i was like imagine being at the mercy of an entire plane of
strangers they don't check your bags going on.
Like I could walk on with a bag of pistachios and just be a sick bastard and just pop it open and kill someone on a plane.
I've actually heard people tutting when I've heard that.
It's like, you can't go two hours without a peanut.
Like, relax.
Oh my God.
But it is true.
Once you get into a bag of peanuts, you can't stop.
What sort of peanut kink
do you have
you can't go two hours
that's so funny
but I was like
you'd be terrified
I'm actually not allergic
to anything
well I didn't think I was
then we went for food
the next day
me and Alan
and you're one
you know they always ask
in restaurants
have you any allergies
and I was looking at her
going are you joking
what do you think this is
I said bring me
out a patch test now
I'm going to go in
and get a patch test now in fairness you look a million times better? It's a premiere of Patch Test now I'm going to go in and get a patch test
Now in fairness
you look a million times better
Oh it's a million times better
You look better
Oh my god
You could have
you could have
recorded video today
let's be honest
Jo what do we think?
No
No
No no no
She could have
She just didn't want
to listeners
I'm not doing video today
I'm not going to be
wheeled out
like scabby Susan
Do you know what I mean
you'd want to see me
on Christmas Day dinner
I put on lipstick
I looked like E.T.
in drag
it was horrible
you did look like E.T.
that's what you looked like
because all the eye bags
underneath
yeah
E.T. in drag
that's exactly what it looked like
anyway that was my Christmas Day
it was actually very enjoyable
though apart from the
do you know what
when I saw your Christmas Day
and I thought to myself
next year
right because we usually do one year on one year off when I saw your Christmas Day and I thought to myself next year right
because we usually do
one year on
one year off
we'll go back to Ireland
but I'm not cooking dinner
I'm not doing it
I'm not doing it
mainly because I don't
want to see the mess
you had the right idea
going to a hotel
like
it was lovely actually
with your family
and like
yeah
do they have a swimming pool
in that hotel
there was nothing
now I could be wrong
but as far as I know
none of the amenities
were open on Christmas Day
because I don't exercise
on Christmas Day
because I'm a normal
human being Vogue.
Well the gym would be open
and I know that they have
a fantastic gym there
because I haven't been to it.
I'm a member in their gym
but their gym isn't
I don't think their gym
is open on Christmas Day
so they'd have to staff
it all on Christmas Day.
What I will say to you
about training on Christmas Day
it's like for me
like that's
that's fun to me.
I know it sounds absolutely pathetic, but that's like, it's like reading a book.
It's like I enjoy going to do it.
I know, but you've got a mental illness and we just accept it.
Yeah.
What did I do on Christmas Day?
Well, we woke up, obviously, at six in the morning, which the kids have really taken to since we've gotten here.
So we woke up at six, went down, they had all their Santa presents. I don't think
I went too wild with the presents, which was good.
And then they started
moaning almost immediately.
And what did we do?
We didn't have lunch until quite late. We had a
big breakfast, loads of pig, you'll be glad to hear.
Big breakfast, then I went training,
then I had a few drinks. I didn't,
you know what, didn't manage to get drunk on Christmas
Day, as much as I tried
do you know
I think you're so full
that it's just like
it's impossible
to try and get drunk
so we had an amazing
big dinner
but not till like
five o'clock
and then we just
kind of chilled
watched movies
did nothing
I had
so I
because I
I love a sandwich
as we know
when I get my own house
I'm going to get a photo
of Lorde's sandwich the man who invented it because he is my messiah I fucking love a sandwich, as we know. When I get my own house, I'm going to get a photo of Lorde's sandwich,
the man who invented it,
because he is my Messiah.
I fucking love a sandwich.
On Christmas Day, I have a Christmas dinner.
And then when everyone went back up,
it was a buffet, basically,
but it was really nice.
God, I love a buffet so much.
Love a buffet.
And I had a turkey sandwich as dessert,
like so straight away.
So Mum and Adam were getting cake and all,
and I went straight in.
I was like, I'm not messing around here.
I don't have time to waste.
The buffet is going to be
wrapped up pretty soon
and I want my turkey sandwich now.
So I had a beautiful like,
you know those gorgeous hotel
fluffy rolls,
they're like bathrobes.
With some cranberry sauce in there.
I had about,
like about a matchbox size
block of butter
on either side
and then filled it
with a load of turkey.
It was amazing.
I have to say,
Christmas desserts are crap.
Like, that plum pudding
is just...
It's gross.
It's absolutely disgusting.
Like, raisins are one
of my worst foods.
That pudding thing,
I think, is back in the day.
Do you know what I mean?
From, like, medieval Ireland
when...
They stink.
They take, supposedly,
years to make. Or is that a Christmas cake? Also disgusting. Disgusting. They stink. They take supposedly years to make.
Or is that a Christmas cake?
Also disgusting.
Disgusting.
Christmas cake.
Anything with marzipan,
throw it off the side of the earth.
Shouldn't be here.
Drain it and see.
Absolutely disgusting.
It's like eating,
it's like eating mola.
Anyway, go on, sorry.
Play-Doh.
Joe, sorry, sorry, Joe.
Mola is Play-Doh.
Yeah, it's the Catholic Play-Doh
yeah
so you'll have never
had your hands on it
you'll never have
and you can't touch it Joe
you can't even touch it
you're not even allowed
to look at it
disgusting
here we go now
yeah
the medical castration
has worn off
he's back in the game.
Oh yeah, sorry.
I'm just doing my podcast.
I'll be finished soon.
Winston.
I don't actually know
who that was.
I couldn't hear.
I'm so dead.
It could be someone coming up.
Spencer has fallen
into the lock and died.
Yeah, it's fine.
I'll just do my part.
I'm doing my part
that actually makes us a living.
Spencer can drown in the lock
if he wants to
he can fanny around
with our pod later on
this afternoon
thank you
thank you bye
Joe
tell us about your English Christmas
did you
well it was a
it was a
an English
and then Jersey Christmas
so English to start with in summer did you drink Pimms and wank off to the King's speech Did you? Well, it was an English and then Jersey Christmas.
So English to start with.
Did you drink Pimms and wank off to the King's Speech?
Yeah, how did you know?
Because you're English, Jo.
Yeah, that was exactly it.
I watch the King's Speech.
I get in trouble for that, but I live,
I'm here with a lot of English people.
It's the crowd.
I joined the, I was a sheep.
I want to hear about a Protestant Christmas.
Do you just go around setting fire to mangers and all, Jo? What do you do?
Mad bastards. No, it's pretty much the same, I think it's the same as your
Christmas, just without the sort of, you know,
church. Well, sure.
Firstly, it's called Mass, Jo. Grow up. And secondly, I don't
go to that anymore. Yeah, we didn't go to Mass.
Do you know what actually happened when we were in
when we were getting auto-christened? Spenno's
face, right? The priest...
That was one of the best days of my life.
Oh, was it a great day?
Did you have a nice time?
I'm glad you enjoyed it so much.
I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Remember when we waterboarded Otto and all?
That was a big highlight for me.
You kind of did actually.
You missed that.
You'll like that bit.
But we went in
and I didn't know that like the other two weren't Catholic,
but like we're standing in the Catholic church
and the priest starts talking about Catholicism
and Spenny was like,
looked at me and he's like
fuck
I was like
what do you mean
I was like
what do you mean
he was like
the other two
are Church of England
I was like
what the hell
is Church of England
I've never heard
of that religion
what is that religion
folk how can you
be so naive
you're in that religion
you're basically
one of them
by the way
do you know
what I've noticed
we talk about religion
a lot in the podcast
but it's only because as two Irish Catholic people living in the UK or based in
the UK or whatever you want to call it, you suddenly become very aware of it because there
are big, there are big cultural differences. Even though, like I say, I don't even go to
mass anymore. I'm what we call a crisis Catholic as in like, you know, I believe in God if there's
a lot of turbulence on a plane, that kind of vibe. But there's still cultural differences and especially around Christmas.
Yeah.
So sorry to all the pagans we have listening to us.
Paganism is quite interesting though.
I met a pagan and she's a witch.
I'm so tired.
I was about to call them anesthetics.
What are they called when they don't believe in anything?
Atheists.
Anesthetics work too, don't worry.
Do you know what I think
next year
you're going to be an atheist
next year are you
we should talk about
well if it's in style
if it's on ASOS
I'll probably get involved
so yeah
yeah yeah yeah
we should do
we should look into witching
witching
witching is kind of fun
she was telling me about it
but it's
it's a lot of effort
it's a lot of effort
because they have to leave out
like
you'd have to do something
like it's worse than going to mass it's way more involved like they have to leave out like like you'd have to do something like it's worse
than going to
mass it's way
more involved
like they have
to leave out
gifts and
and kind of
jazz like that
but like gifts
that you've made
and everything
like it's a lot
it's a lot
no
sounds like a
really bad hen
party a lot of
arts and crafts
a lot of cooking
baking
maybe we'll
try atheism
next year
anyway sorry
we've got
sidetracked
what's the
crack
the girls
did you see
the video
I did
it was very funny
Amber and Cass
decided
my cousin is Cass
and she's up here
they decided to go
swimming in the lock
where it was
absolutely
freezing
I don't understand
and you know what
I will tell you
you know the way
everyone says
oh you'll feel amazing
after it like
re-energises you
and it will make you
it's great for your mind
they didn't feel that
they just felt unhappy.
I'm actually...
Listen, I would have no interest
in sea swimming
on the Christmas day sea swim.
It wouldn't interest me at all.
At no point on Christmas day
have I woken up and been like,
oh, I'd love to just get half naked
and put myself in a lot of pain
in front of a lot of strangers.
Like, no.
You'd never see Jesus in a dry robe.
Yeah, but he wouldn't feel the cold.
But I'm surprised you don't do it. It seems like, no. You'd never see Jesus in a dry robe. Yeah, but he wouldn't feel the cold. But I'm surprised
you don't do it. It seems like something you
would potentially do. Cannot stand
being cold. I don't like cold
water. Spenny was trying to get me to do it now because
it's snowing and I'm like, I wouldn't even put my
feet in. Like, I just have no
interest in it at all. I hate it.
I was in the sauna today, so I don't mind the opposite.
I'll sit in the opposite.
I was in the sauna today. God I don't mind the opposite. I'll sit in the opposite. I was in the sauna today.
God, cut that out, will you?
I just don't want to start my Christmas day with a near-death experience.
Do you know what I mean?
I don't understand it.
I can't get my head around it.
I have to say, I feel like I've had quite a tame Christmas,
but we have people coming up now on the 28th, and I'm ready for the wheels to fall off.
But I can only
drink during the day I think because I can't like
if I stay up too late then I have to get up with the kids at 6
I'd rather drink during the day go to bed early
have a great time but we've got like
six friends coming up and I think
I'm gonna let the wheels fall off a bit then I think I've been
too good
One story that I
loved this week did you see what Samuel L. Jackson did?
I kind of only half understand what he did.
Samuel L. Jackson, it was his 74th birthday, I believe.
He looks fantastic.
He looks amazing.
People went on Twitter to wish him a happy birthday.
And what they noticed then,
he's got like over 7 million followers on Twitter.
What they noticed was he'd been liking
these like quite hardcore porn videos on Twitter.
I think since Elon Musk got involved and took away a lot of the kind of content security people
on Twitter, people are banging up all sorts of stuff and staying up there. Anyway.
He's liking tweets of hardcore porn. Where can I find these? Where are these videos?
You're in them, babe. It's your whole back catalog.
Where are the videos Joanne
that's all I'm asking
you're like
why am I not getting
paid for these
these should be behind
my OnlyFans
a paywall
so sorry
he's liking these
from his own Twitter
are you sure it was him
100%
and like the gas thing is
he hasn't even
basically
it was Samuel L. Jackson
being an old man but also being Samuel
L Jackson do you know what I mean it's like he's too old to realize you can see your likes are
public but he's also Samuel L Jackson so he does what he fucking wants he hasn't even he hasn't
even patronized us which I very much respect with an with the claim that he was hacked I love it he
has said nothing he just he's just unlike them all. That's almost, that's almost worse.
Just,
just leave them up.
But like,
It's so funny.
Do you know what's great?
Like,
he's still wanking at 74.
Like,
that's kind of impressive.
That's what I get from,
that's what I take away from that.
I don't,
I don't,
I don't find him to be a creep
that he did that because like,
no.
Come on.
It's just funny.
It's like when he didn't know
your Spotify playlist was visible when you were playing. Do you know what I mean? It's just that thing. It when you didn't know your Spotify playlist was visible
when you were playing
do you know what I mean
it's just that thing
it's a
you know
and I will say
you know
if you're not familiar
with Twitter
sorry I did not know
the Spotify playlist
was public
it used to play it out
on your Facebook page
there was some crossover
at one point
because I remember being like
uh oh
suddenly you're like
oh shit I just
you know
you're trying to be all hardcore
whereas actually
I've been listening to
the La Miserable
soundtrack all afternoon
crying alone
but I'm like
no no it's Dua Lipa
you know
anyway
it got me then
into looking at
kind of social media
blunders
particularly celebrity ones
because you know
they're the best
just like us
and there were some
absolute belters
a lot of Photoshop
fails
do you know what I mean
Lindsay Lohan did she does star in a lot of photoshop fails do you know what I mean Lindsay Lohan
did
she does
star in a lot of them
actually
like the time she told
Barack Obama
Barack Obama did a tweet
this was just one
I laughed at
saying that he was
going to cut taxes
for kind of middle class
lower income people
and she wrote back
going and what about
people who are claimed
to be millionaires
and Forbes millionaires
but aren't actually
what about them
are you going to cut them
so specific Lindsay
Lindsay Lohan
is just the giver
of gifts
all the time
she's so funny
my favourite
remember she tried to steal
that person's child
did anyone see that
it was like
she was taking this person's child
she thought she was helping them
it's when she had
that other accent
she thought the child
was being trafficked
yeah and she's like
literally
imagine I'm just walking
along the street
she tries to take
Gigi out of my arms
I'd be like dude
I know
take auto
she did
the phone just returned
she doesn't notice
uh oh
you're going to be
raised by Lindsay Lohan
now
good luck to you
bye Gigi
Gigi Lohan
has quite the ring to it
actually
it does
anyway Lindsay Lohan's back
I must watch her new Christmas movie on Netflix.
Apparently it's great.
I say great.
She's like, you know, cheesy as fuck, but whatever.
So coming in in third place,
biggest celebrity social media faux pas.
Yeah.
Do you remember when Donald Trump,
someone tweeted at him with a photo of his parents
saying that they just died,
but that they were huge fans of his.
And would he retweet as a sign of respect?
And he did.
And it was Fred and Rosemary West.
Do you remember that?
What?
Yeah.
Oh my God.
That is so bad.
Yeah.
Actually,
I've just remembered one.
Hold on.
Is it Nigel Farage?
Oh yeah.
So,
and then there was when someone asked Nigel Farage
on Cameo
to do a greeting
and made him say
up the rat at the end
and obviously he didn't know
what the fuck he was talking about.
Hilarious.
Oh,
actually,
maybe we'll put that,
actually,
we'll do four.
Donald Trump,
four.
Nigel Farage,
three.
Coming in at number two.
I actually have,
there are so many
amazing ones
I've just looked them up
it's just like
you know Kim Kardashian
you don't obviously
but Kim Kardashian
has this friend
Jonathan Chabann
and he asked people
should I go live later
and 53% said no
why are you asking people
go live or don't go live
this is like when
Elon Musk was like
will I retire
you know people are going to try and piss you.
You know people are going to go with the opposite
for the crack.
Oh, no.
Don't ask anyone anything.
Just do what you need to do.
Coming in at number two,
one of my favorites,
was when Kris Jenner got a photo with Gordon Ramsay.
Please.
And she filtered it so heavily
that you know the way Gordon Ramsay
has this like infamously quite sexy, very lined head. But did he have no lines but he was kind of blurred into this kind of
fuzzed face and she was just like what snatched to within an inch of her life she looked amazing and
he looked like kind of a heat wave or he looked like she just kind of turned his face into like
kind of he looked like a toe like there was very little features visible I have and she just banged it up not a bother on her when in the days of face
tunes sometimes I get like I get memories and you know they get you get those memories on Instagram
when I'm like who did I think I was joking with like seriously I used to like change I used to
whiten the whites of my eyes and stuff like that. Like mad stuff. I've just found with Zac Efron,
I'm grateful for a couple of things today.
Martin Luther King Jr.
and 10 million followers on IG.
What?
I know.
At least he's grateful.
Me and Vogue have a particular kind of ick
around people who congratulate themselves
on the number of followers they have.
Oh no.
Do you know people with their balloons and all?
You're like, just fucking get on with your job.
The balloons.
You just, you can't.
Like, do you know what as well?
Thanks for the 10K followers
because you and I both,
you and I both know Vogue.
Your followers go up and down
like a fiddler's elbow.
They go up and down loads.
But if you tweet,
like if you insta a milestone,
you're just literally about to bomb yourself
and you're going to lose
about 10,000 followers
for instaing
that you're deadly
don't insta that
I remember
my worst is
you know when people
retweet
not so much anymore
because obviously
Twitter's gone
when people retweet
compliments of themselves
it's like
no
please don't
please don't do that
now I will say
hands up
I have been victim
to doing that
during things like
Edinburgh Fringe
or if I'm trying to
sell a show
I very
I do limit it
but I will bang out
the odd one
like on Insta
if someone does a nice video
say something nice
I'll post it
because I'm like
I'll post it to stories
to try and sell the next show
so I'm no saint
is what I'm saying
okay well fine
okay
I don't know if I've done that
but anyway
you know
you kick chickens
yeah but it's different
it's different than
someone just going
great twits
great twits
and pogo re-shares
thanks guys
excuse me are you having a mimosa yeah look at me I'm on the point of a breakdown Excuse me
Are you having a mimosa?
Yeah look at me
I'm on the point of a breakdown
All I have in life is mimosas
I know
My back is so sore
I think I need to be saying something
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
Social media fail
Celebrity number one
Go on
But Bow Wow.
Do you remember him?
Oh God.
Oh no.
Did an Instagram post.
Oh my God.
Saying that he was flying to New York
and a picture of a huge private jet.
And then someone on his flight
who obviously followed him
saw him sitting commercial
like a peasant
and took a photo of him
while he was literally
like writing the...
Like as in he's like
oh i've just seen he just posted he's like i've just seen bow wow post he's on a private jet he's
actually sitting commercial like i would i would walk to the end of the earth i would dig my way
through the earth's lava and drown myself in the middle of the earth from embarrassment i bet you
he wouldn't give a shit about that i find that kind of oh come on you couldn wouldn't give a shit about that. I find that kind of... Oh, come on! You couldn't not give a shit about that.
The wealth.
It's like going back to Champagne Papi,
my friend, Drake.
Yeah.
It's the wealth flashing that I honestly can't bear it.
Like, when Kylie Jenner always has to pose
outside her private jet.
We know you have a private jet.
We know you have two.
It's more to find.
Please stop.
Do you know what it is?
It's very 2015.
It's very 2015. And the truth is, it's very 2015 it's very 2015
and the truth is
it's now 2023 babes
yeah
when we go on tour Vogue
if you even post
a photo of yourself
in a car
I will kick off
you'll be pushed
around Ireland
in a wheelie bin
excuse me
excuse me
I'll tell you what
I got
you're going to be
sickened Jo
Vogue Williams
in a trolley
doing the rounds
of Ireland
I'll push the trolley Vogue's in the trolley that's what's going to be sickened, Joe. Vogue Williams in a trolley doing the rounds of Ireland.
I'll push the trolley.
Vogue's in the trolley.
That's what's going to happen. I won't step.
Anything else is excessive
and showing off.
We're not going to do it.
I'll tell you something.
I won't set one single foot in a car
because I have gotten myself
a Move Electric scooter.
I have an electric scooter.
I'm going to be scooting
into the galley every day
with the wind in my hair.
I really hope that happens.
It's going to happen.
It's going to happen it's going to happen
I could probably get you one
if you wanted one
we could scoot in
scoot out
good for the environment
that'd be cute
that'd be so cute
so you're going to
scoot in from Hoth
I'm going to scoot in
from Hoth
yeah
you've said it now
okay
I will see you there
if anyone's listening to the pod
keep a close eye on Vogue
for the entire month of February
if you see her on anything electric or with wheels.
Oh, hold on.
Is it an electric scooter?
It's a Ducati electric scooter.
What's that mean?
Ducati, that make of motorbikes.
They make electric scooters.
So I'm going to be flying along the seafront to Quintarf.
I'll see you there.
Oh my God, amazing.
I know
Amber has one too
Vogue arrives on her Harley
what are you doing for New Year's
I want to know what you're doing for New Year's
because we won't be on the pod
when is New Year's
Saturday
Saturday night will be
New Year's Eve
I have to say
the days go
I feel like the days go incredibly slow
when you've got three kids
getting up at six in the morning
it's kind of like
mountain climbers in the gym.
It's time like stops
when you start doing
mountain climbers.
Is she doing this on purpose, Jen?
Cut her mic.
I find your glowy lifestyle
particularly triggering today,
I have to say.
I'm going to bring you bands
into the galley.
We're going to be
pumping up a storm,
Mr. Motivator,
a couple of lightweights. I can't wait. It's going to bring you bands into the galley. We're going to be pumping up a storm, Mr. Motivator. A couple of lightweights.
I can't wait.
It's going to be fantastic.
I'm going on safari in a week with a head.
I look like a lion.
I love the way you say safari.
Safari.
I'm going on safari.
How do you say it?
Safari.
One of my favourite things that I saw,
one of my favourite ever Christmas posts
that was reposted,
I think she does it every year,
Susan Sarandon.
If anyone is looking on their phone,
go look at the real Susan Sarandon posted.
It's of her, like,
I don't know if it's her son
or her nephew or something.
And he's doing this really funny dance
and he slips because he's wearing socks
and falls straight onto the kids'
little Wendy house
that they'd him for Christmas.
And crushes the whole thing.
And it's so good to just watch it all over again.
I love her.
I love her as well.
She's amazing.
Do you know what as well?
Do you know what movie I watched?
Sorry, I can't say movie.
I don't know where I got that.
Film.
I love the way you say film.
Film.
Film.
Film.
I watched last night.
It's actually surprisingly good.
I'm a huge fan of Renee
oh I love her yeah
Renee Zellweger
oh
okay what did you watch
what am I saying
four Christmases
that's Renee Zellweger no
no it's Renee
it's the other one
it's Renee Weatherspoon
hold on what am I
oh my god
my brain is collapsing
what was her name
guys it's Christmas
it's not our fault
please help
we need to wrap this up
I'm malfunctioning
her eyes are twitching
they're swelling again
they're closing over
I'm like
I loved
Brad Pitt
and Little Women
really
yes
I'm sorry
I meant Saoirse
around him
okay
oh my god
Jo what did you expect
it's the 27th of December
yeah
whose idea was this anyway
I thought we were on holidays
no we're not on holidays yet
and you know
I have to record a pod
on the 2nd of January
I'm going to be in a hula hoop
probably
whose pod
mine and Spen's
I'll just drop it
I won't do it
don't worry
I promise
I wouldn't bother no one will't do it don't worry I promise I wouldn't bother
no one will notice
if it doesn't go up
okay
do you know what I want to do
right
I want to
I want to know
your peak
and pit
of Christmas
I know it's very Kardashian
I don't give a shit
I love them
and I've admitted it
peak and pit
so your favourite thing
that happened over Christmas
and your least favourite thing
that happened over Christmas
Joe you can get involved too
we'll allow it
thanks
but do you know
what my peak was
what
the
probably
the
the last two shows
in Castlebar
when it was like
these are my last two
tour shows
they were mad
they were really up for it
it was great crack
and then
drove home
the night
after the last show
from Castlebar
back to Dublin
yeah
and opened a giant
bottle of champagne
and
drank it all
and that was quite exciting
and then my pit
is probably my
face looking like
a crustacean
it looks better now
though
and maybe you'll get
new skin
and you'll look great
I'm on the
I'm gonna shed my skin and then sell it like a'm on the I'm going to shed my skin
and then sell it
like a handbag
like a little snake
and then Joe will go down
and he'll say
is that right Joe?
Oh come on
How many parts
can we get the Joe
going down the snake?
I can't even remember
what that was
Why are you accusing
you of going down the snake?
Because he does it
all the time
It's a news story
we read
No because
it's a news story about read because of the news story
about their anatomy
disgusting pig
Joe no you do yours
and I'll do mine last
you do your peak
the peak is
a cauliflower cheese
on Christmas dinner
that absolutely redefined
what is possible
in the cauliflower cheese arena
okay nothing to do with family
but that's okay
but a cauliflower
go on
I mean it was enjoyed around family with family yeah there was people in the cauliflower cheese arena. Okay, nothing to do with family, but that's okay. But a cauliflower, go on. I mean, it was enjoyed around family,
with family.
Yeah, there was people in the room
who I think I'm related to.
Yeah.
I don't know.
And, oh, the pit.
Oh, travelling.
There was a lot of travelling
because you know you've got to get around.
And that's just, that sucks.
So the peak wasn't the fact
that you've got a child on the way now.
It was the cauliflower cheese.
Wow. Second to the cauliflower cheese is knowing that it's that you've got a child on the way it was the cauliflower cheese wow second to the
cauliflower cheese
is knowing that it's
my last Christmas
without a child
which is very exciting
I would to be honest
I'd put that in pit
because next Christmas
you're going to be up
at six in the morning
so my pit would be
waking up at six
in the morning
every day
with the three kids
which is fine
and my peak would be
training on Christmas day
that was the best
I mean
she's doing this on purpose
my peak would be
being up here
with my whole family
and having a lovely time
okay
but you can tell us
the real one
when we turn off the mic
my peak would be
finding those
fucking tweets
that Samuel L. Jackson
was liking
you go digging there
I'm going to dig
dig dig
this is how bad
I look
I was sitting in the
kitchen this morning
Alan comes down
abs
glinting in the
sunlight
and I went
morning ride
and he just looked
at me and went
morning very honest man I was like ow glinting in the sunlight and I went morning ride and he just looked at me and went morning
be very honest man
I was like ow
okay so we're going to do
guess the headline
man attempts to
blank on the A1
after mistaking it
for a blank
now that's a bit hard
for Joanne
that's two blanks.
Not fair.
Man attempts to
ride a horse on the A1
thinks it's Cheltenham.
Every time I just want to say
man attempts to wank
because it's blank.
Anyway,
man attempts to land a plane
on the A1
after mistaking it for a runway.
Are they always doing that?
A pilot carrying out
his first solo flight
from Newcastle is said to have
mistaken the bustling A1 dual carriageway
for an airport's runway.
The 72-year-old pilot
with just 233 hours of...
Why has he only got that...
He really came late in the game.
233 hours of flight experience
thought it was runway light
oh my god
he lowered it to 300 feet
lower than the height of the Big Ben
before realising
he was lower than he thought
oh my god
that's really bad
this is why mature students are annoying
do you know what I mean
they're annoying
yeah I mean
they're always misreading situations
it reminds me when we were in college
and the tutor or whatever
would be like
I'll let you out early unless anyone
has any questions. And the mature students would be like,
always? I know.
It's like, oh, fuck, because you're here to actually
learn. Jesus. Yeah, no.
No, we're not, actually. You're eating
into our time. Anyway, thank God
you landed the plane and everyone survived.
Christmas, Christmas. Jingle, jingle.
Yeah, jingle bells. Not on top of cars.
Did everyone survive, Jo? Fact check that, will you?
He was only flying a little tiny plane.
It's not like a big airline.
Oh, I thought it was a jumbo jet.
Well, that story's crap.
Who cares?
God's sake.
I thought it was one of those amazing planes.
I love when people do those posts.
You thought it was Concorde?
Concorde, yeah.
When are we going to be able
to just kind of like
side saddle a drone
and just get around like that?
When's that going to happen?
What can you do?
How do you fly?
Put a pair of straps on a drone
and ride it like a horse.
Have you ever,
have you ever done skydiving?
No.
It's terrible.
I had to sit on this man's lap.
I'd never met him before. I had to sit in this man's lap I'd never met him before
I had to sit in his lap
for 25 minutes
just sitting on his lap
while we got up
hold on
is this
again folks
there's been a couple of instances
where you've been low level molested
and then you've tried to
pass them off as hobbies
or events in your life
and then we have to explain
that you were low level molested
he was moving around
but he said that there was
a spider under him
so I was like okay.
No 25 minutes
you're sitting on someone's lap
then you jump out of a plane
it's not enjoyable
I just
I wouldn't do it again
to be honest with you.
I think it was for a job
but as I've said before
you can pay me to do anything.
A woman splits with hubby
after he buys her
blank for Christmas
claiming it was a nasty dig.
Hinge membership. No I think that would be quite kind. No it was a nasty dig. Hinge membership.
No, I think that would be quite kind.
No, it is a gym membership.
Ooh.
I mean, I remember my
auntie Naomi bought Amber a weighing
scales for Christmas.
What?
Was it a joke?
No.
She bought her a wing
scale
oh wow
a wing
maybe she just thought
it was nice
well that was
great crack
thank you Jo
we were so
on it today
on the 27th
of December
I hope
somebody listens
to this
what do we think
I'm asleep
Joanne's asleep
her eyes have folded over
again I just thought
it was the swelling
but it turns out
she is asleep
thank you so much
for listening
and we will see you soon
Joanne's going on
to folding over
like snails
what
I'm going on
yeah
we might never see you again

by a hippo

swallowed by a hippo spat any luck see that little boy swallowed
by a hippo spat back out don't spit her out hippo keep her and thank you to the east african
