Starting point is 00:00:00 Welcome to this week's bonus episode of My Therapist Ghosted Me with her, Vogue Williams, and myself, Joanne McNally, and Emma, because Jo's off getting married. I'm actually in Jersey where Jo's getting married and I was thinking to myself, will I hunt him down? Will I just go to the wedding? I'm here. Then I remembered I've no interest in going to his wedding or anyone else's. Jo has very clear boundaries with us which I deeply respect Joe does not want us involved in his personal life
Starting point is 00:00:28 he's made that very clear and you know what the feelings meet you so it works out really well for our friendship it's all very professional I kind of went out with him at the comedy awards and he seemed like he'd be kind of good crack I don't know I was anti-crack though
Starting point is 00:00:41 because I was pregnant at the time okay Joanne there was an email that you didn't choose last week and I had a read of it and I thought that's a bit up our street so I thought we could drag it into this week. Okay you ready? I was sat scrolling Facebook and realized my dad had uploaded something on his story. He doesn't really know how to use Facebook so for him to upload on a story I thought that's odd. I clicked on it to see he had uploaded a photo of his willy on his story. I was so
Starting point is 00:01:06 mortified that I forced my partner to call my dad and tell him what had happened. My partner called my dad and said, all right, mate, you've uploaded a photo of your willy onto Facebook. My dad dropped the phone in panic and had no idea how to take it down. So I had to log in and remove the photo. and remove the photo. Just. I'm so embarrassed for him. I'm so embarrassed for her. She had to see a picture of her dad's dick.
Starting point is 00:01:32 Well, so we need. Okay. Not great. Not great at all. Not great. But it was. It's your original home. Come on.
Starting point is 00:01:44 Like, let's not. You can't deny science. That's biology. It must have brought back memories for her. Yeah, you're, yeah, exactly. You're like, I recognize, I recognize that little sitting room ball at the bottom. Yeah, that place has been done up.
Starting point is 00:01:58 Yeah, exactly. That's really changed. It's weird going back and seeing your first home. That is actually so disgusting. It's weird going back and seeing your first home. That is actually so disgusting. It's true. Also, maybe, you know, it wasn't a sexual thing. Maybe he's trying to send it to his doctor. Did it look infected?
Starting point is 00:02:15 Did it look unwell? Was it erect? You know what I mean? There's a lot of questions there. Oh my God, was it erect? He might have been trying to say, it might have just been, you know, was it a medical context? It could have been a medical context. I't even do you know i didn't even think about why he would
Starting point is 00:02:29 have that picture on his phone that wasn't the bit that was scarring to me the bit that was like i wouldn't be able to handle if i had to see that particularly because my dad's been dead 10 years but like i know what i mean not great that's dusty i would i would find that like but spenny i know you'd have well you'd have to be on an archaeological dig no more than myself you'd be like dusting it down with the brush to try and see it i found something i found something but what was now that you've mentioned that what was the dad of like why did he have a picture of a dick this is why uh older people using tech like and i i'm i'm basically like a geriatric woman when it comes to technology i'm really bad at it how i haven't accidentally uploaded a photo of my nipple to my insta stories i don't know it's definitely something that's going to happen
Starting point is 00:03:17 i mean even you did it you did it with our review that time you accidentally uploaded to your whatsapp god i know i know so I can see it happening all the time. Actually, that's a good one. If people would send us in stuff, they accidentally upload it. Yes, that'd be so good. Yeah, because it is. There's nothing worse.
Starting point is 00:03:33 I remember one of the lads played a trick on me once. They messed me down. Did you mean to upload that? It was actually around the time of the Black Lives Matter. And one of my mates, he's Somalian
Starting point is 00:03:45 he emailed me or he messaged me did you mean to tweet that really racist thing anyway he was trying he really and then he wouldn't
Starting point is 00:03:52 answer my calls he wouldn't answer my calls and he's a comedian and I was freaking out anyway so my worst nightmare is someone to be like did you mean to upload
Starting point is 00:04:02 that photo I die if it was like honestly like that's what was I doing the other day and I thought I'd sent on my birth video because it was around the same time as the auto video I was trying to send something on I was like if I like there's no taking that back whatsapp are so weird whatsapp why why would they have an option to delete for me why do they differentiate between delete for me and delete for everyone obviously delete for everyone that's built i'd say for people having affairs because you're like well just delete for me but leave the message on their
Starting point is 00:04:32 phone like the worst thing so if you delete for me accidentally then it lives in the whatsapp group for eternity and you can't delete it and no one else can delete it either oh god yeah i hate that but i've actually caught somebody out with something uh you know when it flashes up on your phone you just see the message on your phone and then there was a delete for everyone and i actually wrote back and i was like too late babe i already saw that it wasn't a partner of mine it was just me catching a friend out on something oh yeah yeah yeah i love when that stuff happens i can be such a detective I don't know how there aren't more kind of social media faux pas in our past to be honest Stop I'm actually terrified
Starting point is 00:05:10 I need to touch wood Hang on I'm too scared Sometimes I do wonder like Imagine I could If you die Like do you know the way
Starting point is 00:05:18 Like even Okay Do you know We mentioned I'd like to mention Jodie Marsh just in relation to this Obviously her boyfriend well ex-boyfriend, Billy. Sorry, hang on.
Starting point is 00:05:28 I find it fascinating that you follow her. But anyway, continue. Well, I didn't follow her until this kicked off. You know me. I'm like a moth to a flame when it comes to a woman going nuclear on her ex. Like Alice Evans is kind of, she's moved on, she's healed. So there's a hole in my life there. I just find it all completely fascinating. Because we're so used to hiding those feelings that we're so used
Starting point is 00:05:49 to kind of being told to take the moral higher ground so when people kind of book that trend I just find it I think that there's just like an over oversharing on Instagram when people like whip out their phone to film themselves like crying over something really sad that's happened and it's like but you're if you're really sad how do you have time to now saying that it is actually have you ever looked at yourself in the mirror when you cry it's actually it's quite a nice thing to do it's absolutely beautiful I've never looked better all my my entire hinge profile is just photos of me crying it's very sexy people because online it's like this low level interaction you don't really have to give it a lot like at the moment because like I'm busy with work and I'm on the road my head is kind of full
Starting point is 00:06:31 so I basically cut out all my family and friends I've like loads of voice notes there I haven't listened to because that it it's going to take something out of me that I just don't really have at the moment whereas I can do insta stories and stuff because it doesn't take as much out of you and there's still a there's still a kind of a connection to it. There's still a validation to it. So when people are sad, I think they just, they just want connection. And they, I know you can, you can overdo it. You can really over egg the pudding there.
Starting point is 00:06:54 I think, I definitely think that you just be, and then you'd be like thinking back to when you did overshare, like there's obviously things I'd like to take back, not just beep beep. There's quite a few things. I'm not digging any deeper into my Instagram because I'd be mortified with some of the crap I've put up I know you kind of have to learn to learn your own boundaries really don't you yeah I know that's just there is a level of oversharing and your dad uploading a picture of his dick is definitely one of them it was an accident I know I I know, but like if I had to see like my brothers and my
Starting point is 00:07:26 dad, they're just, and my stepdad, they're action men. There's nothing there. That's how I feel about it. Yeah, of course. Male family members are eunuchs, basically. That's kind of the way we look at things, 100%. I have no genitals. But tell your dad, I did
Starting point is 00:07:42 receive it and I'm absolutely thrilled and I will be in touch. genitals but tell your dad I did receive it and I'm absolutely thrilled and I will be in touch hi Pogue and Joanne to give a bit of context my ex-boyfriend let's call him Brian we went to school together shagged when I was young then reconnected in London seven years later got together moved in together then locked down consequently murdered our relationship while we were together he quit his job and worked in a pub but didn't have that much money and i was fresh out of uni so i was hardly packing change either since we broke up he's had a changing career and become extremely well off sicker christmas just gone he decided to go for a christmas drink while we were both in our hometown before i knew i'm
Starting point is 00:08:17 pissed and sat in his living room playing articulate with the family articulate with the family since then we've both agreed that we're not looking to get back together but yet he takes me for dinners buys me gifts and more recently took me on an extravagant all expenses paid holiday i've not touched my card since 2021 which brings me to my predicament if we're not getting back together and i see no future with this man where do i draw the line before he pays for my house deposit you You don't. Is it morally okay to be dating other people? Is my boyfriend my sugar daddy now? Any help would be appreciated.
Starting point is 00:08:49 I mean, that doesn't sound like a bad deal. It's a really good deal. And is it morally okay to be hooking up with other people? Yeah, because I'm telling you now, if Brian isn't like, listen, it's you and me, we're exclusive. He's definitely not front of everyone. You gotta, yeah. At this point, look after number one.
Starting point is 00:09:09 Let's not be naive here, okay? Brian's not spending all this money on you. You're probably one of a harem of women getting free nandas since 2021. I mean. Is this set in the UK or Ireland? I think this is set in the UK. But I actually, do you know what?
Starting point is 00:09:24 I did a TV show on sugar daddies and it's very interesting. If it's an ex-boyfriend that you quite fancy, then like until you meet somebody else, I just go along for the ride. But like, I wouldn't be into like getting myself a sugar daddy because I mean,
Starting point is 00:09:36 I've seen the level of people on that site. Not great. No, but this is like, this isn't a sugar. This is a man in your life who has money who wants to spend it on you like I like spending money
Starting point is 00:09:48 on people I like and I like having money spent on me this is totally natural this is the way God intended it to be take the free shit yeah
Starting point is 00:09:55 I'm kind of in the same predicament myself now I can't hide the fact that I'm making money now you know what I mean before I'd be like I'm a comic I'm a comic you know what I mean before I'd be like I'm a comic I'm a comic
Starting point is 00:10:06 you know what I mean like I'm clowning like I'm just kind of doing street performance and juggling for pennies whereas now they're like are you not making a bit of money
Starting point is 00:10:15 are you not coughing for that dinner now I know it's kind of expected now saying that I think that girls should kind of pay their way because poor Alzo
Starting point is 00:10:23 he's had to now he had very high standards for the dates he was going on because he was paying, he was bringing them out for dinner and stuff. I thought, I was like, how much is that crap costing you all the time? Dinner and drinks cost you a fortune. So now he's got back coffee dates
Starting point is 00:10:35 or dates for walks in the park. Very intelligent, that boy. Well, he's not that intelligent if it took him this long to realize that. I know, and he's absolutely broke, the poor thing. Oh no. I told you, bag's absolutely broke, the poor thing. Oh, no. I told you, bag of cans, along the pier in Hoth, best date you'll ever be on. I want to talk about how amazing modern medicine is, right?
Starting point is 00:11:04 There's a story, right? This girl had to give birth twice to her baby, basically, because there was something wrong with the baby. And they basically, like, they take him out, do a little operation on him and put him back in to finish growing when he's at like, he was like, really, really young young and they saved him. They took the baby out to repair a neural tube defect in his back and then put him back in her womb for another 11 weeks. Is that not the most like maddest shit you've ever heard? I know, it's crazy. And then I did a Joanne and went down a hole
Starting point is 00:11:41 and I found all these insane operations that you can have somebody moved half removed half a child's brain because he had something was wrong with his brain and then they moved like they removed half of his brain to control seizures he was having and then he was grant there was also right somebody had a four-day operation she had a giant cyst in her body which weighed 616 pounds and had a girth of nine feet like what i know how does it get to that stage i know but you ever watch that that pimple popper and you see people walking in with like with like a football coming out of their forehead it's like dude get it removed like nine years ago yeah if i'd assist that it hit five pounds i'd be and i don't go to the doctor but i'd you know i'd obviously try and
