This is a Global Player Original Podcast.
Welcome to the bonus episode of My Therapist Ghosted Me.
It is still me, Dmaine McNally, and it is still Vogue Williams.
Vogue, tell me, why do you look like a sexy baby?
It's called mermaid hair, I was told.
What's going on? I know it's called mermaid hair I was told because I was doing
what's going on
I know
I know
it's actually
it's quite off-putting
when somebody
has had their hair
and makeup done
well it's certainly
me and Jo feel
very humbled
you guys actually
look very similar
you've both got
your little grey
hoodies on
now in fairness
I don't always
look like this
Hadley and Buster
were attacking me
you certainly don't I know I certainly don't always look like this Hadley and Buster were attacking me You certainly don't
I know
I certainly don't
I certainly do not
Turning up
dressed up like a dog
staying around a Friday afternoon
is obnoxious
as far as me and Jo are concerned
It's actually
it's not right
I'll turn off my camera
We've enough mental health issues
please turn off your fucking camera
I look too fucking good
for this camera
I was doing Lorraine this morning.
I do my little fashion segment on there.
And he overlined my lips and I swear to God,
I look like a fish and I love it.
One of those giant fishes, you know them ones?
Yeah, the sucker fish.
Oh God, I don't know what,
I'm going to find out the lip liner.
I'll tell you all girls
because loads of people have been asking about the lips.
You look fab, I will say.
But you know,
just before we go to Lorraine,
do you know that sucker fish,
is it, no, sorry,
it's puffer fish.
Have you seen the documentaries
where dolphins are getting high
sucking puffer fish?
Well, I didn't,
but I saw you send something
to the group.
Yeah.
That's a very Joanne thing
to send to the group.
It's so funny.
So if you overeat a puffer fish you'll die
but if you just like take a little
bite out of it you'd get mad at it
and so all these dolphins are like tripping
I swear to watch the video
they're like off their tits
and then they release the puffer fish
the puffer fish survives
they just literally get high
they just get high and I was like oh my god maybe Fungi is actually
just in rehab or some shit.
Maybe he's not.
I think though
that humans can't eat
a specific part
of the pufferfish
and I only know this
from watching The Simpsons.
Do you remember that episode
where Homer ate
the bad part of the pufferfish
and he was meant to die
but then it turned out
he hadn't eaten it.
Yeah.
No they aren't
they aren't
they aren't for nibbles.
Let's just say
pufferfish are not going
to be on the can of
the can of powder
they're very toxic
but apparently
if you just eat a little bit
if you lick it
like
let's lick frogs this weekend
like the toads
yeah
you can get
the dolphins
you should google it
honestly it's absolutely fascinating
like they're tripping balls
and they're all just like
goofing off and smiling
and stuff
Jo I'll lick whatever
the goddamn hell I want
this isn't a medical podcast
I'm out there licking snails
trying to get high
I can't find no frogs
over here
that's your business
I don't think we need
to caveat
the fact that
we're not suggesting
people lick insects
for the weekend
although
Joanne McNally
if we had had a few drinks
and someone said
lick that frog
and you will have
a great time
we would not spare one second and we would lick that frog and you will have a great time we would not spare
one second
and we would
lick that frog
I'd be on my knees
quicker
quicker than you could say
human centipede
I would be down
head to tail
anything for a laugh
like a little dog
drinking water
do you remember
that poor bastard
who ate the slug as a dare do you remember him poor bastard who ate the slug
as a dare
do you remember him
no
no I don't
oh god
is that a real story
oh 100%
so like that
he was out with
the lads
etc
and they dared him
to eat this slug
I think it's Australia
Joe you might want
to fact check that
and he ate it
as like a dare
and it was
completely poisonous
and he basically
went into a
vegetative state.
I think he died
recently.
Joe, you're nodding?
She's absolutely
Oh my God.
Yeah.
Do not eat
slugs.
Terrible.
That is shocking.
Really sad.
Yeah.
God love them.
I know.
I don't like to eat
disgusting things but when I did that Bear Gry, I don't like to eat disgusting things,
but when I did that Bear Grylls show,
I had to eat tarantulas, scorpions, crickets.
I ate a rat on a stick.
By the way, with this waiver thing,
a three-ton...
Tongue?
I have them.
Do you have that?
I bought it from China for $5.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, well, I'm just going to have it
because I've never seen you use it.
You don't need it.
Now, you can't really plug it in
unless you use
one of your fingers
in the sockets
but once you box
off the electrics
that's okay
I'll just
I'll get Otto
to cover that part
yeah exactly
I need both hands
a child's finger
in the socket
and honestly
like there's
no looking back
poor Otto
he'll be buzzing
from the electric shock
and you're like
mummy looks like a mermaid, Otto.
Don't be so selfish.
We'll all be happy.
Joanne McNally, I'm going to have to get another very large package to my house.
I am happy to take your packages,
but over the next month, you have to collect them.
No, I'm selling.
We're trying to sell the house.
This is exactly why I'm having my packages sent there
because you didn't even tell me you were selling the house
and this is your punishment.
You're now my postal office.
Well, I have never been so deeply offended.
The estate agent came over yesterday to be like,
oh, like this was what could help sell the house.
He's basically told me.
He said, put your arm back in the basement.
Is that what he said?
He's told me I'm a disgusting pig and have too much clutter.
So I've had to get on to our good friend,
Kevin Carey.
Yeah.
He was like,
you need to put lots of this stuff in storage.
Like it's,
there's a lot of stuff.
And I'm like,
basically all the kids stuff.
People don't want to think that a kid lives there.
Yeah.
Kevin Carey,
obviously our savior from Caroline Mavers is coming now to take all my stuff
because people think I'm dirty.
Who would have thought I'm the dirty one.
Well,
when I was away,
even when you're not with a kid, so I have
kids, but when I was away, we were in this hotel and it was
very child-friendly. I found myself
sneering at the children's breakfast cart
because I was like, ugh. I don't have my kids
here. Because I was like, ugh.
Oh, yeah, you're like, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, I am
having...
I am having a
self-development day today.
Oh, how interesting.
I saw you yesterday.
I feel like you may have had a drink since yesterday.
I had a drink yesterday with Michelle DeSworth.
There was a drink taken, I cannot lie.
Went back to her flat, had some more drinks,
and then I left her flat and I was scaling her gate.
I couldn't figure out how to get out of her gate.
Michelle had her phone stolen by some lad pretending to sell the big issue. So I was scaling her gate. I couldn't figure out how to get out of her gate. Michelle had her phone stolen
by some lad pretending to sell the big issue.
So I couldn't contact her.
I know. Prick.
I was like, something just happened there, Michelle. That was weird.
He'd folded her phone. He kept saying,
God bless your family, but like looking us in the eye
like really, like it was like really intense.
Because he was nicking her phone off the table. Anyway.
That's a good Rob
though. Good Rob. I'm going to start saying that. God bless your family. her phone off the table. Anyway. That's a good Rob though. Good Rob.
I'm going to start saying that.
God bless your family.
I'll take the Chanel.
I said, Michelle,
you got to respect the hustle there.
He actually worked for that phone, Michelle.
I know all your memories and notes and everything are gone,
but I mean, come on.
That was a slick number he did in there.
So I couldn't remember that.
I think she should go back
and give him her house keys.
He deserves them.
Sorry, he does.
Take my I-band number
go on
you deserve it
so she's
so I left her flat
and it's in a gated
block of flats
so I could not figure out
how to get out of the
block of flats
so I was
I was stuck on top of the gate
with my backpack
and of course
I couldn't ring Michelle
she'd now found
I couldn't remember
what number of flats she was
and I was like
I'm just going to have to
sleep in the garden
got back off the fence
and then I was like
there has to be a way
there has to be a way
and isn't there a giant
red button the size of a fridge
beside the gate
saying like exit
anyway
got home
and I do feel like
I overstayed my welcome
in Michelle's
she at no point said
text me when you get home
she just went bye
I was like Michelle.
Is Michelle a comedian?
She is yeah.
Which means
yeah she's pretty cutthroat.
She was like
good luck to you.
Goodbye.
Anyway
then today
I was looking at
Catherine Ryan's Insta
and she
when she wants a break
from her children
and her husband
she says she needs
some self-development time
and takes herself
to her bedroom.
I saw that yesterday.
Yeah.
I don't have children
or a husband
but I feel like today
is a self-development day for me
so I'm just going to sit in bed
developing all day.
I get that
when Catherine Ryan says that
because like
I'll like
let's say I'll sit down
and just
I want to have a cup of tea
and I have not
you know what I'm like
I have not sat down all day.
Spenny won't think of like
getting up to do something
like I'll still have to do it
so I have to just hide out.
You have to just hide or else you don't get get that fine like yesterday I was moving a painting that
I got upstairs couldn't have been heavier because it was on like some I don't know metal thing it
was put on amazing painting I'll show you and he watched me carry the painting up the stairs I'm
like can you see what I'm doing here that, that sounds like a man who's been told
to sit the fuck down
many times in his marriage.
You're like,
I don't need your help
or assistance.
I've birthed three children.
I have 28 abs
and I certainly do not need
your assistance
to get this painting up the stairs.
I will tell you one thing
and I will tell you no more.
He is very, very lucky
that I've had this break
from him now.
I've got a 40 minute break
here for the bonus
because I was in, I was very now I've got a 40 minute break here for the bonus because I was
in, I was very, I had a
very strict time schedule today because we had to
do this and I've got something else
and Spenny waltzes in
20 minutes late to our record
waltzes straight in 20 minutes late
and then I'm getting ready because I was going to
hop on the back of his motorbike so I could get home
as quickly as possible and I looked at him and I said
where's the helmet I asked you to bring me? I forgot. I had to leave Global without
even saying goodbye. He's trying to kill you. If I say goodbye, I'm going to kill him with my eyes.
I wanted to kill him. He is trying to kill you. He wants you to tumble off the back into the traffic
and look what he's trying to do. I'm telling you telling you I actually I could have thrown him
into oncoming traffic myself
but now that I've gotten home
and I've reflected
on the tube here
because I was that woman
running through the tube station
and I've reflected
and I've forgiven him
privately
he won't know that I
I had something
to forgive him for
but he's forgiven
he's escaped it
good for him
I've added a second Chicago date sorry does Chicago He's escaped it. Good for him.
I've added a second Chicago date.
Sorry, does Chicago love you or what?
Chicago has finally stepped up.
Thank you, Chicago.
Chicago.
Remember I had to pull the first Chicago,
but that was some weird deal with the promoter.
I don't know what the fuck that was about.
It was bizarre.
So I did not expect much from Chicago this time. Yeah.
First Chicago is gone, I'm putting on a later
Chicago show.
I don't know if you knew this about me, but I'm
actually a Chicago
native. Yes.
I lived in Chicago for three months
in the summer. Stop.
I didn't realise you were from Chicago.
I am from Chicago.
Oh my God. I had a great time
living up in Chicago
that's crazy
that you're from
in the summer
it's amazing
yeah
I used to go to the beach
and look at the city
and say wow
I love my city
is Chicago on the beach
no
there's a little lake
Lake Michigan
that you lie beside
and you see all of the
it's a very big lake

a great time in Chicago

the only reason
you're big in Chicago
is because of myself
and your brother
I'll be totally honest
I've no idea
it could be a 20 seater
I've absolutely no idea
what I'm walking into
so like
anyway look
I'm absolutely thrilled
there's a second Chicago

25th

a 9.30pm show

I've never
honestly had a great sleep
two nights I've owned it
cost me 15 quid thrilled with it fair play you're big into those things in fairness Jesus. It's brilliant. I've never, honestly, had a great sleep. Two nights I've owned it.
Cost me 15 quid.
Thrilled with it.
Fair play.
You're big into those things.
In fairness,
you are a professional sleeper.
So I will take your advice.
It's very important to me.
It's very important.
I've never seen anyone sleep with the class and quality
that you do.
It's amazing.
I put so much effort into it.
Speaking of death,
I did Kathy Burke's podcast
Where There's a Will, There's a Way? Where There's a Death, There Burke's podcast, Where There's a Will, There's a Way?
Where There's a Death, There's a Will?
Where There's a Will, There's a Wake.
I did that as well.
Sorry, Where There's a Will, There's a Wake.
I know, I know.
And she was saying to me,
she was like,
Vogue is very scared of death.
I said, indeed, she is, Kathy.
We literally counsel her through it every week.
And she said that you had felt
kind of better about the hell-dying experience.
I lied. I did not feel better.
Okay, of course. I felt you did lie.
I said, Cathy, I sense.
Big lies from that lying bitch.
I sent some fake news there.
She just walks out and runs into traffic.
She's like, I'm willing to do it now.
I have no reservations.
Hit me, hit me.
Take me, Jesus.
Can't wait to get the next chapter of my life started.
I did actually, you know,
I had a conversation with Svenny about that,
about, because we've decided that we're only death do us part,
then we're finished.
So in the afterlife, I'm off on my own
because I mean, I'm sorry, I'm not being his for like.
No, good idea.
And like Brando's up there and all,
you wouldn't know what you'd bump into.
I don't know exactly like
it's very important
for me to be alone
during that time
but he's already
started backtracking
like he wants to be
with me in the next life
I'm like
he's sick in that
get a grip
you loser
he's sick in that
you could have a chance
at Marilyn Monroe
up there
come on
it's till death do us part
bitch
and then I'm free
okay
yeah
I'm free to wander
and twerk and slag my way around up there if that's what I choose to then I'm free okay I'm free to wander and twerk
and slag my way
around up there
if that's what I choose to do
I was not a whore
enough in this life
but you can be
god damn sure
in the next life
I am going to be
the biggest whore in heaven
that's going to be
Vogue the whore
is my name
Hulk Hogan is going
to be up there
like Brad Pitt
of course
he's going to die
before Vogue
surely
oh you mean
what I
Joe was suggesting he was curious as to why I would suggest you'd want to bang Hulk Vogue Surely Oh you mean what I Joe was suggesting
He was curious as to why
I would suggest
You'd want to bang Hulk Hogan
And that is a fair question Joe
I'm on a self development diet
I'm not
I mean where did Hulk Hogan
And focused on other things
Hey Vogue and Joanne Ande ah that's nice thank you i wanted to get your advice on something
me and my boyfriend have been together for over six months it's all been so fantastic
he's so wonderful great sex and we have such a laugh and we're already talking about getting
married you sound like me um why on earth are you contacting us?
This seems to be going perfectly well.
But I did the unspeakable and went through his phone.
I know, I know,
but sometimes you just need
to know the lay of the land.
I saw that in the summertime
he'd asked his friend
for their friend's number
and asked her on a date for him.
As Joanne would say,
I got my Poirot on
and lined the dates up
and saw that we'd gone on four really
great dates by the time he's asking for a date with another girl i don't even think he messaged
her but this has made me feel so weird weird in my mind i wouldn't have been asking for a lad's
numbers at this time i know i know i need to forget it but she's an absolute knockout and
the complete opposite of me it's so easy to compare and feel insecure how do i just move on do not or talk to him about it do not talk to him about it
and also you think she's a knockout but he thinks you're a knockout because he went for you i think
four dates is absolutely fine i really really do i would i would not bring it up i would i wouldn't
throw away something great because he asked for a number of someone you're only four dates in I told you like me and Adam were three dates in and um he told me on the third date he was like
your photos on your profile don't do you justice and I was like really and he's like yeah so I went
home and changed them all so that I could get someone fresh in and then he met and then he
asked me again did you just update all your profile photos and I was like well yeah you
tell me they weren't doing me justice.
And I'm still out here.
Like I'm still swimming around to the pond.
He was absolutely horrified.
But yeah, like three, three, four dates, fine.
Yeah, until you literally say that you're going out with each other. Like I ended up marrying Sven and I had a great time.
When you backtracked it to whatever date suited
you both
and that's fine
choose a date
yeah
choose a date
stick to it
like I wouldn't think
four dates is a big
like it obviously
it's a big deal
because you're getting
to know each other
but like
I see them in America
they'd have 12 dates a week
in America
in the Americas
there's no
in the Americas
they don't commit
like I've seen
obviously I'm getting
all my information
from HBO
where women are like
are we kind of
you know
and also Saxon City
they're like dating
these lads
who think that they're
I mean this is a very
it's a late 90s reference
but he were also
dating other women
don't fuck it away
don't throw it away
because he's gone
he went ass-summoned
after four dates
yeah you're grand
okay
last email
I dated a guy
let's call him ben back in 2021 for
a few months he seemed so perfect for context he lives 200 miles away from me and we well joanne
that could be in australia for all drawn and i would know we don't i don't know no uh ben dropped
me off home after dates bought me gifts and took me away for my birthday and even told me he loved
me we ended things as he wanted to settle down and i was about to start a ski season so it seemed like
the right thing to do fair enough i'd probably ditch someone for skiing in fairness ski season
okay it always seemed like right person wrong time ben accidentally texts me in november 2023
with a message for work however i knew ben had a work phone so there was no accident there.
No accident there.
We chatted on a few...
No, I think this is turning...
This sounds quite nice
but usually our emails turn...
I mean, he dumped him
for a ski season.
I'm surprised he contacted you at all
but carry on, Doug.
We chatted on a few occasions
and he told me
I was the best he'd ever had.
Ooh, that's nice to know.
And that he missed things between us
and definitely got my hopes up
that we could rekindle things.
In all honesty,
some of these messages were definitely not PG.
Long story short,
I found out Ben had a girlfriend
the whole time we dated in 2020.
Ben!
He proposed to his girlfriend
five days after we broke up
as soon as I went to France.
Got married in June last year, so I was married when he was texting me naughty pics and asking to meet.
I'd no idea the entire time.
I'd obviously been following on Instagram, but there was no pictures of his girlfriend or wife.
He now knows that I know Ben sent me a text pretending to be his wife from an unknown number.
And she said that Ben had told her everything about the affair.
Sorry, sorry, sorry. ben sent who a text so so she got a message from an unknown number pretending
to be ben's wife saying she knew everything about the affair why pretend to be ben's well but would
we not assume that she is now so she said i knew it was ben pretending to be his wife due to the
way the message was typed and to cover up his tracks oh he's now told me his wife is pregnant i don't know whether to believe this he's called me and
cried on the phone begging me not to tell his wife i'm not blocked on everything including
linkedin what a weirdo he's yeah message pretending to be from his wife so that she
thinks oh the wife knows there's no point yeah oh god i got it okay what do i do do i tell his wife really dark i would literally
stay so fucking far away from that like get don't don't bring that shit into your own life i would
just block him and literally never speak to him again i think this sounds positive i think there
is a good core to this i think think there is maybe some trust issues.
I think, Ben, sounds like
maybe there's something to work on here.
I think that you should
not listen to one single word that my
friend Joanne just said.
Colleague, doctor, if you don't mind.
My doctorate colleague, friend,
paleontologist, Joanne
McNally. Doctor, professor, Joanne.
Yeah. the worst possible
advice of all time
this lad is
I mean
it's not ideal
it's not great
stay away
but I'm always
I'm always
I'm always torn
on the detail
the wife and husband thing
no no
I just
I never know
what the right thing to do
it feels like
it's very subjective
there's certain situations
where maybe they are entitled to know
and certain situations where they're not.
I don't think there's like one size fits all answer to that question.
By this, I just don't think I just would stay away from it.
You're far enough away from it as it is.
I would just literally have nothing to do with it
because if you do tell the wife, then like you're the bad person.
And also, I will say, and maybe this sounds very cynical,
but I would imagine with Ben,
you're not his first rodeo.
If this is what he does,
this is what he does.
So there's probably, you know,
six to seven other women out there
slipping around in his DMs
or whatever it is.
Like, you know.
You know.
Not to be trusted.
Ditch him.
And good luck to Ben
and his wife.
And they're,
are they having a baby,
did you say?
She doesn't know if it's true.
Anyway.
Oh my God,
Ben is bribing her
by saying my wife
is having a baby.
So don't fuck her up.
Yeah.
Wow.
Oh, there's my,
that's my butter dish.
It's just been delivered.
Oh, thank God
you've got a butter dish.
My butter dish is here, guys.
Thank God my butter dish has arrived.
Now I just have to get butter.
I saw this dish in a magazine last night
at whatever time and I said,
this dish has to be mine.
We've got some American dates coming up.
We're going to New York and Boston.
Boston.
We're going to America.
I'm finally going over to America.
I'm absolutely thrilled.
If anyone can get me a discount on the visa,
I'd really appreciate it.
It's very expensive,
so I'm currently going to America for free.
Can you not do,
have you not figured out how to do a collab
with the American government?
I'm absolutely shocked by that, to be honest.
Hashtag Americas.
Like, come on.
Swipe up for a green card, guys.
