Hello and welcome to the bonus episode of My Therapist Goes With Me with me, Vogue Williams and Joanne McNally.
uh joanne something came to my attention this week so and i i don't know if it's true and because you're more of a bookworm than i am i would like to ask you about it so you know the
way i'm obsessed with that colleen hoover author yes someone said to me those books are aimed at
teenagers and i'm mortified i can't get enough of them is that my
is that my age range
for like reading
I don't actually
I don't know
because I've never read
any of her stuff
so I don't know
if it's kind of
teen fiction or not
but I do know
I have seen a lot of women
our age reading them
I'm absolutely obsessed
with them
but also
I don't think any of that
stuff matters
like adults are reading
Harry Potter and stuff
do you know what I mean
once you're not sitting there on the train reading Peppa Pig I think you're grand I couldn't I any of that stuff matters like adults are reading Harry Potter and stuff do you know what I mean once you're not sitting there
on the train reading Peppa Pig
I think you're grand
I couldn't
I mean Harry Potter's
too long for me
I do look at a book
and I'm like no too long
too long
I was about to start reading
this book called Shantaram
have you seen how long that is
yeah it's huge
have you read it
is that
is that the old
is that out a long while
yeah
I remember going around
at the time
I don't think I ever read it, to be honest.
I know.
Everyone was reading it.
It's quite daunting.
I might stick to my little romance kind of novel things.
I was thinking I'd love to start like a kind of a,
I mean, this isn't a new idea.
I think everyone does it.
And like a digital book club.
To get me back into reading books.
I've gone very bad.
And I love a good recommendation.
And then we're all, like if we should do it
and then we're reading them together
and we can talk about the book
do you know what I mean
it's like a share book
well I told you to read that
you have to read that
Colleen Hoover book
I'm telling you
it ends with us
everyone
I gave it as a recommendation on this
and loads of people have mailed me
to say they've read it
so maybe we should
do a digital book club
and like talk about it
like not for ages on the pod in case people don't want to hear about it we should do a little book club and like talk about it, like not for ages on the pod
in case people don't want to hear about it.
We should do a little roundup
of what book we read.
I think we should.
I think it'd be fun
and it would give us a sense of camaraderie
togetherness.
Which is what we want.
We'd feel very intelligent as well,
wouldn't we?
Well, it depends on the books.
We'll start with Anne and Barry.
I was going to say,
there's a great book
I read
about these two kids
and they find this house
in the woods
covered in sweets
and then they go in
right
this sounds great
I got a lot from it
to be honest
yeah I got a lot
from that book
it sounds like a fantastic
read actually
oh I know
I know another good book
Jump for the Stars
why don't we read that
oh for god
oh this is what this is now
plugs for the baby books
what about that
caterpillar book
maybe we could start with him
The Hungry Caterpillar
yes
let's start there
I haven't read in a while
let's go small
I'd have to build myself up
to Jump for the Stars
to be honest.
Why don't we do...
I hear I found it
amazingly surprising.
Did I?
What did I say?
What did they lie?
What fraud did they come in
the back of that book?
Have you even
supported your friend
and bought one of the
Jump for the Stars?
It's a very well read book.
People love it.
The kids are loving it.
What kids? My kids are loving it what kids?
my kids
and other people's kids
who have mailed me
about the book
are you saying
you want me to buy the book
you want me to buy the book
to support you
do you want me to buy the book
to support you?
buy the book to support me
okay?
I will
you're right I will
I'll do a reel about it
do a reel
about the book
I'll do a reel
reels perform
no pictures
I don't want a picture
I want a reel
I'll be bawling crying
but like that was
the most terrifying
experience of my life
okay
let's get in
I think that we should
talk about this
book club idea
seriously
do you know what
I'd love to read
I'd love to start
reading Roald Dahl's
books again
Roald Dahl
Roald Dahl
big time
he
I found him fascinating
he used to write there was obviously a bit of controversy with him when he him fascinating he used to write
there was obviously
a bit of controversy
with him when he died
but he used to
he used to go
he had to shed out
in his garden
and he'd go out
and he'd put a tray
across his lap
and he used to write
his book in pencil
and he'd like
rub out lines
and then
write it again
imagine
imagine him to write
a book with a pencil
and a pen
imagine how
like I don't think
I'd even know
how to write now if I took a pen to my hand.
That's mad because you have two books on sale under your name.
That's insane.
You're an author.
Joanne, I mean.
You're an author.
Well, I typed them up, didn't I?
Do you think I sat there with a pen and wrote them?
I actually, do you know what?
And like, I haven't even, I haven't looked into it yet, but I would love to write like my little teen romance novels i've
loads of ideas on my head i haven't haven't put pen to paper yet i'll probably get i'll probably
have a trilogy out before joanne's released her book i probably will do you know what i thought
you know what you do because you because you sell so well right and you're kind of like um
a momtrepreneur is that what they call them you should go in you should go in
get a fucking ghostwriter
right
tell them you have a couple of ideas
bang out a line
of kind of teenage fiction books
that get made into movies
that us adults read
yeah adult fiction
they'll be made into movies
I would let you
you could be one of the actors
in one of my things
okay
how kind of you Vogue
thank you you're very kind of you Vogue thank you
you're very welcome
Jo you can't
cheers
okay on to emails
I promised Joanne
I promised Joanne
the role of barista
number two in this book
please she's really
holding on to it
it's a big break for her
okay so
we have got
okay hi ladies I'm a fairly new listener and i'm making my way through
episodes at a rate of knots i have a story to rival bogues about her brother walking in oh
christ don't remind me of that uh my boyfriend and i went on holiday with his family a few years ago
we're not together anymore and we were all staying in a block of rooms next to each other we could
easily pop in and out of each other when we're getting ready and making drinks or whatever we were both getting ready to go out
for dinner when we started having sex and we knew we'd have to be quick otherwise we'd be late
my boyfriend had to introduce his granddad to this rum he'd bought from juicy free
i am turned i'm turned on are you turned on
and he'd really taken a liking to it you can tell what happened next his granddad opens the door
saying where's more of that rum then he locked eyes with the pair of us froze and said i'm very
sorry both of you i won't give you too many details but it's enough to say that he literally
couldn't have seen more of me if he tried he was so apologetic for the rest of the holiday oh my
god stop that is so embarrassing the eye contact he locked eyes with all of them that's
that's too many eyes
do you know what I mean
it's too many eyes
do you know what
I'm actually touched
I haven't really walked in
on that many people
having sex
just two
it's awful
it's an awful time
it's so disgusting
and animalistic
I totally forgot
I forgot
that one of my
a guy was going out
with his sister
walked in on us
I totally forgot
about that till now
oh god
in what way
were you situated
we were kind of
just getting stuck in
on the bed
but like
like just normal
missionary
you can get away
with missionary
yeah I don't think
there was anything
I don't think there was
I don't think there was
like any spank paddles
hanging from the roof
or anything
I think it was
kind of pretty basic
you hadn't been
gifted them yet
where is my spank paddle
where is it
don't worry about it
folk
don't worry about it
okay
drop the spank paddles
I'm giving them to
Otto for his 18th
mummy
do you want some soup alright I want to talk about this because like i i actually to be honest
i started the jumpsuits you didn't even wear a jumpsuit before i had worn the jumpsuits
i did agree i did wear jumpsuits i just didn't happen to wear i just style yours for the tour
the pink one but of course no excuse me you weren't wearing jumpsuits. I just didn't happen to wear, I just style yours for the tour, the pink one. No, excuse me,
you weren't wearing jumpsuits
before I had that orange one.
That was our first foray
into jumpsuits, really.
Excuse me,
you're completely wrong.
I was wearing jumpsuits on stage
in fucking 2018.
I wore jumpsuits on my first chat show.
Well, I was wearing jumpsuits
from the age of 13.
Okay, I owned them.
I was born in a jumpsuit. I was pushed out of my owned them born in a jumpsuit i was pushed out of
my mother's womb in a jumpsuit my sack my fetal sack your amniotic my amniotic sack was shaped
like a jumpsuit so so everyone joanne doesn't own jumpsuits i swear anytime i wear jumpsuits i get
trolled out of it like asking why I've taken Joanne's clothes.
And I've just got myself three, three, no less than three new jumpsuits. And they're mine,
not hers. Anyway, hi Joanne of Vogue. I had an experience this week and I feel the need to share
it with you. I blame Joanne for it. So we all know Joanne loves her pink jumpsuit. My pink jumpsuit.
I saw this and thought I was a fan a fan i bought myself the teal one feeling
like a goddess i wore to my friend's baby's first birthday party as i arrived at the venue having to
take my shoes off i went to find the toilet i undid the little tie and unzipped and shimmied
out of the jumpsuit remembering how impractical they are i did my business just a wee and started
to get dressed i noticed that my sleeve oh no my felt heavy. Then I realized it was wet and warm. I pissed on my sleeve.
Ah, yeah.
They're a bit dangerous like that.
Yeah.
I actually don't think that there's anything
really that wrong with it.
Just give it a rinse.
Only the other night in Southend-on-Sea
did I perform with the cuff covered in urine.
Yeah.
So if you've met
Joanne and there's a
strong scent
of ammonia
you know she's just
pissed herself again
yeah that's why I wear
all that pomegranate noir
yeah
the dead dot
yeah
you're
yeah
sometimes
and it is
it is
it is incredibly annoying
you have to keep an eye
on the sleeves
because they do tend
to travel
into the toilet
yeah there's nothing worse than I
remember I sat down on the toilet and I was absolutely deranged and uh it was it was at
some event years ago and the toilet seat was down and I hadn't noticed because I was so drunk and I
literally I pissed and obviously that's so funny and stories like this are why i will not be getting my children into any schools
over here okay the kids are gonna be head schooled in battersea
hi booge and joanna i heard the story about the two-minute silence during the wax and knew it was
my time to send my story.
I booked in a wax at a shopping
centre. We're halfway through and the girl's phone
rang. She apologised but said she should
answer and she wouldn't be long. Turns out
it was her mum phoning her to say that her cat had been
hit by a car. It was very sad and awkward.
She took ten minutes or so to
compose herself. Oh, and I was sat
waiting with no pants on.
Eventually she resumed the job, but hadn't
stopped crying. In fact, the more she carried on
the worse the tears got.
She was apologising through gasping sobs
and I just tried to make polite and comforting
conversation about how I was
sure it was a very instant and painless death.
Once she'd finished and I was dressed,
I offered her a hug and she fully took me up on a
proper snot crying into my shoulder and holding
on tight. Oh oh that's desperate
that's terrible
but look
let the lesson here be
don't get out and
decent dunt yourself
in a shopping centre
yeah that's like
going for a bypass
at the bottom of a
shopping centre
just don't do it
go to a reputable clinic
I'm not going to have
a fucking
a boiling hot
lollipop stick
stuck on myself
at the bottom of a
shopping centre
what I will say to you,
my lesson was different.
Don't buy cats.
They all get knocked over.
When have you ever met a cat
that didn't die
from being knocked over?
Very unusual.
Don't love anything.
Don't attach yourself to anything.
Don't have any feelings
and don't think about anything.
That's the message.
Yeah, we forgot about that.
Stop thinking.
I'm not well this week.
But I am going on tour. That's just...
She certainly is.
I'm still on tour.
Three more
bigger streets and another house.
three more bigger streets and another house
in the park
get in there quick
seriously
they're not on
until next year
so
loads of time
I must say
that would be
a fantastic
Christmas present idea
Joanne
I was only thinking myself
what a perfect
Christmas present
I would be
jingle bells
jingle bells
etc etc
thank you everyone for listening we'll see you at the Apollo for Christmas present I would be. Jingle bells, jingle bells, et cetera, et cetera.
Thank you everyone for listening.
We'll see you at the Apollo.
March 3rd,
2023.
I'll be there.
