This is a Global Player original podcast.
Hello and welcome to My Therapist Goes With Me with me, Vogue Williams, and Joanne McGlowy-Nally.
You're looking very glowy today, Honzo.
Thank you. I'm 12 weeks pregnant
I wish
I'm kidding
I just didn't drink last night
Vogue tell me about your week
you've been busy
my week well yeah
wow touring
touring is full on
isn't it
well that's actually
not what I meant
what was I busy with?
What have I done?
The BAFTAs!
Oh, the BAFTAs.
Yeah.
Well, that's part of my week, the BAFTAs.
So I'll tell you what, right?
I'm not one of those people that gets invited to the BAFTAs.
I'm not.
I don't even get invited to the TV BAFTAs.
And I feel like anyone gets invited to that, but not me.
Is there a hierarchy or like TV BAFTAs lower the TV BAFTAs. And I feel like anyone gets invited to that, but not me. Oh, is there a hierarchy?
Are like TV BAFTAs lower than film BAFTAs?
I feel like there was more A-listers
at the film BAFTAs.
BAFTAs, yeah.
At the BAFTAs.
The BAFTAs, yeah.
So when I went to the BAFTAs,
so many superstars,
like proper famous people.
You get there, right? You go in. I felt like,
I just felt like, I thought I'd feel like more of a loser, but because I was so excited by all the celebritas around me, I didn't care. I was just like, I didn't care that I was staring at everyone.
I was staring at people for too long. Didn't give a shit because like I'm never going to see these people again.
We don't mix in the same circles.
But for that one night,
I was amongst the stars.
You're like,
I'm here to gawk.
You're like,
I'm shamelessly going to gawk
at the celebrities.
Yeah, you're a gawker.
You're a professional gawker.
But do you know what, folk?
The thing that it is,
the thing about this is
once you get invited
to the BAFTAs once,
once you don't make
a tit out of yourself,
do you know what I mean?
Once you're not found like topless face down
at the Vogue after party, why
wouldn't they invite you again? Once you're not heckling,
why wouldn't they invite you again? This is it, babe.
You're in. You're a BAFTAs person
now. BAFTAs, yeah. I might have
scared some of the guests with
the staring, but like I think I could get away with that.
Now I will say, you mentioned the Vogue after party. Didn't get invited to that. Like,
what's their problem? What is their problem? You know, I'm called Vogue. Just let me come.
Babe, I think it's the main party's the first invite. Next year, you'll be in at the afters.
And you know what as well? I bet they're shit crack.
No, they look like good crack. I saw Florence Pugh coming home. Well, I didn't personally see her.
She was coming home at 8.40 in the morning.
I thought, that bitch is sound.
I want to hang out with her.
Oh, I saw.
I was like, the papers are so funny.
They're like, Florence Pugh.
It's basically going, Florence Pugh, session bird.
Spotted coming home at 8.45.
Like, they might as well have just sat her.
Do you know what I was surprised by?
She still looked absolutely amazing. I think she had her makeup artist out with her. She must have just said it. Do you know what I was surprised by? She still looked absolutely amazing.
I think she had her makeup artist out with her.
She must have.
For touches.
She looked absolutely glorious.
Like she could have been like,
that wasn't from the morning after.
That was actually from me walking out the night before.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Can you imagine how much makeup you'd have done
for the BAFTAs, for the tele-BAFTAs?
You'd be peeling that shit off for weeks.
I know.
I know.
Does the after party have little sandwiches
or anything like that? What goes on? Do we know? Okay. So I'll tell you. Right., I know. Does the after party have little sandwiches or anything like that?
What goes on?
Do we know?
Okay, so I'll tell you.
Right, okay.
Tell us from the very beginning.
So you woke up.
So I woke up.
Face down in your own vomit at the BAFTAs.
Face down in my own vomit at the BAFTAs.
Colin Farrell, nude, beside me.
Delish.
Jamie Dornan on the other.
No, I'm only joking.
And I shouldn't say that.
Jamie Dornan's married and I've been going on only joking. And I shouldn't say that. Jamie Dornan's married
and I've been going on about him too much.
So are you.
Oh, yeah.
Out of respect for Jamie Dornan's wife.
It's all rumours.
Spencer couldn't give a shit.
Well, Spencer wants to get involved there.
We were considering
some kind of thruple arrangement.
No, so I got up.
Otto, of course, ruined my night
that I had before. So I'd had two hours sleep. So I woke up. Otto, of course, ruined my night that I had before.
So I'd had two hours sleep.
So I woke up.
I nearly started crying
because I was so tired.
Flew home to London
and then I started getting ready.
Like I had people over
to get me ready.
Hair, makeup.
I had got my,
I had a nice outfit sorted
because obviously you've got
the outfit sorted for ages.
Outfit was stunning.
I know.
I did feel like I might have been
a bit old for a look like that.
But anyway.
No!
Are you sure?
Yeah!
It's the little tits that I have.
I was like, oh, they're very little tits.
Look at those little tits in there.
You're athletic.
They're athletic tits.
Other people would call them pecs.
But thank you, Joanne.
I call them abs.
They're abs.
You've just two more abs.
Two more.
Your abs have nipples.
You should be proud.
Extra abs. So anyway, got ready. We went off to Your abs have nipples. You should be proud. Extra abs.
So anyway, got ready.
We went off to the BAFTAs, got there at four o'clock.
And their queue of traffic was so long.
They had closed where the cars went.
I tell you what, they wouldn't have closed it on Leonardo DiCaprio, but they closed it
on us.
So we had to get out of the car.
Get the bus.
We walked.
Yeah, we got, hopped on one of those rental scooters Boris bike
hopped on a Boris bike
imagine getting a Boris bike
to the BAFTAs
we did
we got a Boris bike
to the BAFTAs
look at me
I'm relatable
she's like pedalling up
to the BAFTAs
don't worry
I didn't have to try
and act relatable there
so then you get there
and you queue up
in this long queue
for the red carpet
and I'm sorry
if I'm going to the BAFTAs
I want people to know about it
so I was happy to queue
right
there was this man in the queue
shamelessly taking pictures
with every single actor
I was obviously really jealous
because I just didn't have
the balls to do it
no
it's too thirsty
it's too thirsty
you gotta act like
you belong there
do you know what I mean
that's the key
absolutely
pretend that you like flow in these circles all the time.
So anyway, I did a lot of staring in the queue.
Taryn Egerton walked beside us.
Then there was the man from Lord of the Rings.
I forgot his name.
Then we saw Brendan Fraser.
Oh yeah.
He's so tall in real life.
He's back now.
He's like, he's back.
Like the pistachio nut.
He's back in fashion. Yeah. A's back now. He's like, he's back. Like the pistachio nut. He's back in fashion.
Yeah.
A hundred percent.
But he's really quiet.
But Spenny said it must be because he got that like nine minutes standing ovation.
So now he's turned into this little, so like this was his smile.
You know what I mean?
Like not really a smile, like a little smile, but just like, like really like a quiet man.
Anyway, who else do we see?
Jamie Dornan.
Spenny was talking to him.
I was too embarrassed because he was so good looking. Do you ever get that? When someone's too hot and you're like, I can't, I can't talk to you.
Yeah. I would have guessed that with Jamie Dornan, those kind of hot, particularly Irish actors, I find when you see them in person, they're like, they're tiny. Is he tall?
He wasn't that tiny. He was around Spencer's size, so quite small.
Quite small.
Yeah, quite small.
Yeah, that's Polly Pocket stuff,
so it wouldn't be for me.
Moving on.
So then I spotted Colin Farrell.
He was about like five meters away from me,
laced in Bare by Vogue.
Laced.
I thought you were going to say cocaine
and I was like, wow, fair play.
I didn't realize he was so brazen.
This is the problem with the Baftas.
I guarantee it's way more boring
than it looks.
I'll be honest.
Okay, sorry.
Finish anyway.
Okay, I'll keep going up
the red carpet.
So anyway,
we're on the red carpet
and obviously there's loads
of really famous people
but everyone's queuing up
and there's a queuing system
in all walks of life.
Queue in the queue.
Some people,
I don't mind
if you come
to the top of the queue
because, I mean,
if you're Cate Blanchett, you can kind of go to the top of the queue because I mean if you're Cate Blanchett you
can kind of go to the top of the queue you're talking about queue skippers yes people who skip
the queue there's a few people that were skipping the queue but a few people that are allowed to
skip the queue name and shame name and shame Cate Blanchett skipped the queue but she's Cate Blanchett
I can accept that yeah you're I understand yeah you're like it's Cate Blanchett she's got
she's got carte Blanchett is that got she's got Carte Blanchett
is that a thing
yeah
she can do
whatever the fuck
I should be writing
for the Daily Mail
that's a fucking
great headline
go on anyway
but there was
someone else
who skipped the queue
and I thought
you know what
you should not
be skipping the queue
my friend
oh
I'm not saying
who it is
because it will
just like
turn into a big war
oh
who are we
going to war with
the neck the absolute neck. I thought,
excuse me. Your days of skipping the queue are long gone, love. Yeah. One, two, skip a few. I
don't think so. Not for fucking you, my friend. You're lucky you're not an usher at the boxers.
I have a lot of respect for that artist
I do I do I really like
them too I don't want to point out who
it might be but yeah kind of piss off
we don't want to give too much away by the gender
there's like 12,000 people about me
but I thought you know what
Honzo no no no
but yeah go on because I'm not going to say anything to you
and so how did they
navigate the skipping of the queue?
Did they kind of tap dance their way up the side?
Or were they just very obvious?
Balls deep, straight up, didn't give an absolute shit.
But some people really like believe, like, I know where I stand in the alphabet.
And some people are, yes.
You know what I mean?
Kate Blanchett, she's not even on the alphabet anymore.
She's like past the alphabet
yes
you're V for Vogue
for very out of her depth
at the BAFTAs
exactly
you know what
happy to queue
I'm happy to serve the drinks guys
I'm happy to serve the drinks
I'm just glad to
I'm just happy I'm here
happy to be here
happy to be here
I'll walk people to the toilet
no problem
but you know what happened then
which really put me back in my box
so we're queuing up
Brendan Fraser
it's a wall
and there's like
three people on it
at the same time
so everyone gets
their picture
Brendan Fraser's
at one end
Spenny and I
are in the middle
and Cate Blanchett
comes on and starts
at her end
well when I say
the camera's
diverted
in the
two
the two
the two other directions
Spenny and I
were just standing there
still smiling
at nothing.
Smiling into
the wilderness.
I love the
I love the visual
of these two cameras
having like an allergic reaction
to Vogue and Spencer
and just like
pinging off
in opposite directions.
Spenny will deny
that down to the ground
but it's what happened.
I was there
and I saw it.
Anyway, then we went in. I went with San Pellegrino. So you get invited by brands and actually we had a nice time. We had a good table, which I was happy about.
Who was on your table? Hit me.
Just the San Pellegrino crew and Joe Sugg and his dancing partner, who are also very nice people.
They're not famous, though, are they, San Pellegrino?
No, they are.
Oh, famous.
San Pellegrino.
I mean, who's the face?
I mean, were you sitting with a load of oranges?
I don't understand.
Excuse me.
In the world of water, they are the most famous water.
Oh, San Pellegrino.
Yeah, you see,
everyone knows them.
Yeah.
I was thinking of that orangey,
what's that orange stuff?
I know, what do you think?
They do.
They make that lovely
lemon drink as well.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, I'm a huge fan
of San Pellegrino.
I love their work.
They should have been up
for a BAFTA.
Anyway, so yeah,
you get invited by brands.
So Joanne, I think that we should start reaching out to people now.
We want to go next year.
Why doesn't Bear by Vogue have a table at the BAFTAs?
We couldn't afford it.
Oh, fair enough.
Yeah.
I mean, San Pellegrino is a billion dollar company.
I'm on my way there, but we can't really afford a seat at the BAFTAs just yet.
Well, I am bringing out a line of tote bags.
So depending on how that goes, we could be all there on my ticket next year.
I heard the tickets.
So I heard the tickets are 30 grand each.
Like, can you imagine?
But what's the crack?
Like is Cate Blanchett's not paying 30 grand?
No, she's not.
She's not paying a penny.
But you know what?
Surprise, not a goodie bag in sight.
Not a goodie bag in sight.
Maybe not for the water people but maybe
there's you know what I mean maybe bottles of water aren't their huge priority sorry what are
you what are you trying to say nothing are you more famous now than when you went in I'd say so
I'd say slightly so but did you tell everyone about the podcast what was the point of you going
well I was sitting there writing notes the whole time I'll be honest about different things that happened when I get well I get my notes out actually
because I did write these down thinking I'll forget that now I wrote down best people watching
I literally I'm surprised I didn't fall off the balcony trying to look at them and one thing I
loved because last week when we did our first Gailie show I was so shitting myself that I
thought that my I was going to just like buzz off stage from shaking so much. The host, Richard E. Grant, his hands were shaking. He was absolutely terrified.
Why that, why no one gave that lad a Xanax or a bit of CBD or even a bit of rescue remedy?
Like once the hands, once the hands go, it's game over. Cause they know you're weak. I told you
before when I did my first arena show, it was, um, like it was for, it was
John Bishop put on a charity show, um, in three arena. And I was by far the kind of newest comic
on the lineup. But, um, it was a bit of a tick, tick diversity. We need a woman job. And I was
like, bing, bing, straight in. I was like, I didn't give a fuck that I'm here for diversity.
I mean, I'm here. That's all that matters. But, um, the hands were going so, cause it was huge.
It was like, you know, huge. And I took a Xanax just to stop, just to stop the shaking. Because
I was like, if I go out there shaking, I'm already kind of the weakest sheep. Do you know what I mean?
No, you can't, you can't be shaking. And I did, it did make you think that like,
oh God, he's so nervous.
I went out there solid, like a rock.
I could have done surgery with those hands.
Don't remember a thing about the gig.
She just stood there in silence and thought she did a good job.
She actually said a word.
Yeah.
Eyeballed everyone.
Thank you.
Good night.
Enough.
Thank you for having me.
Poor Richard E.
Grant.
I think that we should really host it next year.
I'm willing to put myself forward.
I think we should.
Vogue, we couldn't even host the Razzies. no one wants anything to do with us I know oh do you
know what though it's so funny like the way there's this like ongoing there's this ongoing
tobacco between British awards British press and Irish actors and Irish yeah and them claiming
Irish people as British when they've won something or done something good
but then
if they've done
something terrible
like it'd be like
British comedian
Joanne McNally
donates toys
to Ormond Street Hospital
but Irish comedian
Joanne McNally
is done for drink driving
on the way home
it's like
they want you
when you're hot
and they don't want you
when you're not hot
but no
they're a clever bunch they're a clever bunch
they're a clever bunch
the Brits
I'll tell you what
the Irish
the Irish cleaned up
but I think that
I think the Banshees
of the Vintage Iron
was up for best
British film
yeah
which I did
like it couldn't be
more Irish
I know
listen
they want the
I don't blame them
they want the awards
do you know what I mean
I have to say
I mean you could be
political or you'll take
you'll take the credit
I'll take any award I know I would worry what you would take to be honest I mean, you could be political or you'll take the credit. I'll take any award.
I know.
I would worry what you would take,
to be honest.
I'd take fucking anything.
She would take anything.
Hand it over.
Colin Farrell, right.
I kept a good eye on him
throughout the ceremony.
He's gotten a lot of attention
on this podcast since we started.
There's been a lot of threats
to going by on Colin Farrell,
which is sick and disgusting.
But we have done it several times.
I know, but he did. He was waving at me in the queue. Was he, yeah? He was
like, Vogue, Vogue, where's Joanna? Tell Joanna I was looking. Yeah, he was waving at me. Had you
done the mushrooms? He said, I love my therapist ghosted me. This is when you'd done the mushrooms,
was it? Just half a queue. Your trip to the walls. I'll tell you, this is how much I fancy
Colin Farrell. And Colin, if you're listening to this, and I assume you are. He is. He's an avid
listener. He told me. I fancied
you when you were wearing bandanas. Ah yeah but that was he looked hot with a bandana. No he didn't
and I still I was like because love is blind so to me there was no bandana there was just a full
head of hair. He's got a great head of hair. I loved Colin Farrell so much that I went to his
brother's dance school just in the hope that Colin Farrell would show up one day and he didn't. Is that true?
Yeah, but I did
learn some street tap and funk.
Wow.
Yeah, no Colin Farrell though.
I'm like something, oh I love Colin Farrell
and he wore hats.
I love Colin Farrell, I liked him when he wore hats. I love Colin Farrell, I liked him so much I love Conor Farrell he wore hats I love Conor Farrell
I liked him when he wore hats
I love Conor Farrell
I liked him so much
I broke into his home
sat in his kitchen
I used to do
I waited for him
to return from rehearsals
I tell you what
if I knew where he lived
he'd be in serious trouble
Emma was there in the background by the way because Jo's we won't even talk about what Jo's doing I can't IMO is there
in the background
by the way
because Joe's
we won't even talk
about what Joe's in
I can't
I just
it's unbearable to me
we believe there is
a child coming into the world
that has something to do
with Joe
so he's not here
anyway
apparently he's the father
no excuse
yeah
I don't think he's giving birth
why isn't he on the call
IMO anyway
thank you for filling in
IMO's not as thirsty
so she doesn't keep
her mic on.
Imo just sits in silence willing to be in the background.
Joanne,
how was your week?
Well,
I'll tell you how my week was.
I
started playing golf this week. Oh. And
finished playing golf this week. So basically, it's a one-time thing. I had a one-night stand
at the golf club basically, and I will not be back. It's a long old game. It's a long old game.
So basically when me and Alan were in Dubai and I did Topgolf
and I actually was kind of good,
but you know when you can't figure out
if it's just beginner's luck
or you're actually like a child prodigy of golf.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, I mean, I saw the videos.
I don't know how good you were.
I hit all the Pokemon off the castle on the screen.
So I don't know what you're,
that's what I did in Topgolf in Dubai.
Okay, okay, okay. I killed all the minions on the screen. So I don't know what you're, that's what I did in Topgolf in Dubai. Okay. Okay. Okay. I killed all the minions on the screen. So I don't know. I mean, what can
I say? You're fantastic at golf. Sorry. Sorry. Thank you. Thank you. So anyway, Adam's like,
come on, I'll take you out to the golf course and we'll get around in, I guess I say.
That's so boring.
I know. I was like around. Yeah. He's like, no golf. I was like, fuck's sake. So anyway,
we're on the golf course and he has this little buggy that he pushes around like a pram full of, and a little Michael Jackson glove.
He's an electric buggy. So he's a full on golfer.
Oh yeah.
Wow.
When I say, first of all, I used to play hockey in school. That never leaves you,
that position. It's the opposite of golf. I took so much grass I moved more grass
than a Mexican
drug cartel
in the space
of an hour
like
I levelled the place
levelled the place
sorry
sorry you only went out
for an hour
no
no we were there
for ages actually
we played six holes
gee
that you know
I
that's amazing
he's such a cheap
Alan's such a cheap bastard
so he's digging around
in his little pram
for all the golf balls
and I was like
there's golf balls here
and he goes
no no no no
he was trying to give me
the cheap ones
because he has like
expensive golf balls
and then he was trying
to give me the like
pennies hun golf balls
like the fucking
Euroland golf balls
I think that's kind of
fair enough though
like how many did you lose
a lot
my handicap
my handicap is so high
that I could win
just by getting off the buggy
to be honest.
I could just put a foot on the ground
and they're like
her handicap is so high
she's won.
She's beat everyone.
But like
it's kind of just like snooker
but standing up.
It's a weird game.
It's a weird game.
And it's not even
he's like it's a sport.
It's like
the only exercise
genuinely the only exercise I got was
using the rake to
get it out of the bunker.
It was the only time I broke a sweat. Well, I come
from a golf family. My family talk about
golf all the time. They watch golf all the time
and they play golf all the time.
So I used to have to play golf
when I was 14 and I got thrown off the
golf course because I kept arriving down in belly
tops because there's loads
of lads there now.
Oh yeah,
I had to wear
like a special little jacket.
Yeah,
you have to be like
dressed really appropriately.
But like,
I'd be going down
and there'd be loads of lads
around the golf course
so I'd be like
trying to look like a ride
and I'd just go down
in my little
Calvin Klein belly top
thinking I was deadly
lying across the golf course
and then I got kicked out.
You got slut shamed
out of the golf industry.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm a fantastic golfer.
I did notice,
Alan has like a little golf gilet and all,
do you know what I mean?
It wouldn't be,
you wouldn't be going,
wait till I get you home.
No, no, it's not a very sexy sport.
No, no.
It's quite pimpy, quite posh.
But I was like,
honest to God,
next time I'm going to bring a metal detector with me
so I look like I'm digging up the place on purpose.
Like I've heard loads of cash be put underneath or something.
It was, you know the way women fought really hard
to get into golf clubs.
And I was like, I've fucking sent them back by 60 years.
It just wasn't my thing.
I think you're more of a darts girl.
I think I did love a bit of darts now.
Yeah, darts is a great game.
You just sit and you drink, you have fun.
You just like, that's more your sport.
I don't think golf is really for you.
No, it's too posh.
Yeah, it's not even that it's too posh.
It's just not for you.
Anyway, I'd say if I tried to, it's a Paris Court Golf Club.
Like it's quite a posh golf club.
Oh my God, you were there.
That is posh.
I'd say if I tried to join now, I'd have a hernia, but yeah.
No, I'm surprised they even let you stay there. That is posh. I'd say if I tried to join now, they'd have a hernia, but yeah. No, I'm surprised they even let you stay there.
Sorry about the damage.
Sorry about the damage done.
Apparently they had to close it off then
to kind of put the grass back down.
Are we going to talk about the Gaiety?
I don't really know what to say.
Well, it's my first time doing a tour.
Joanne's just been touring out of her mind.
We went, we started our tour in the Gaiety.
And I have to say, it's very, it's so much fun.
I'm trying to teach Joanne the new ways of touring.
And so we were really well behaved last week.
We didn't go out in the dirt.
We didn't go wild once.
But the tour, you see, it's different when you're touring.
Like we, I wouldn't really call
a touring quite yet
because we are literally
doing a show
a run in a
in a venue
in the city that we live in
so that's a little bit easier
it's when you're bouncing
around different places
it gets harder
and you're staying
in hotels
and like hostels
excuse me
I'm not staying in Dublin
I'm bouncing around
from London
over to Dublin
I'm allowed to say that
that's true I've asked Mary we have'm allowed to say that I've asked Mary
we have a lovely tour manager
Mary
I've asked her for
stage manager
stage manager
stage manager
I've asked her for
decaf tea this week
I'm going down a new route
decaf
tea
and grapes
okay
Emma can you imagine
how much crack
she has to tour with
I get more crack out of
Theodore at this stage
Speaking of Mary our stage manager
We've a couple of stage managers Mary's one of them she's amazing
She won't mind me saying this
I had to ask her one of the days
Oh my god are you going to say this
Yeah
Okay she asked me I had to get the morning after pill
Right so I was in the venue
And I couldn't get out I was in the venue and I couldn't get out
I was in the venue
do you know it's always
a bit rushed
you're in rehearsals
and obviously at the
moment we're kind of
tweaking the show
the show is
we're trying to see
what works
what doesn't work
blah blah blah
so every day
we're in early
we're in about
three o'clock
to go through
what worked
the night before
what didn't work
how we tightened
improved
all those kind of things
yeah
so I said to Mary
I was like Mary
listen come here
you wouldn't run out and get me.
We're not, well.
And she's like, okay.
Mary is a woman in her fifties.
Folk.
Mary is 55 years of age.
So, so she runs out
and I, she said,
your man called her in for like a consultation.
He was like,
when was the last time you had your period?
And she was like, it's regular enough.
And he's like, when was the last time you had sex?
Anyway, she thought it was really funny.
Thank God.
And she was really sad about it.
But she said your mom was just staring at her gown.
This is a lot of bullshit.
But the thing about it is that I think people should be able to get
the morning after pill for you
like I would have preferred
Adam Godwin had got it for me
but he couldn't
I think that you should just
yeah 100%
you should be able
to just get it
but like
I also
I'd be too
like I don't know
I wouldn't ask
because not myself
well I see
I know Marriott
Marriott did all my Vicar's Treats
and me and Marriott
are thick as thieves
but also like
it's a bit like
it's a bit scarlet
that you're like
you have to go in
and you're like
I don't want to be asked
loads of questions
I know I need the morning after pill
give it to me
we know what happened
like when she last had sex
it wasn't three years ago
I wouldn't be here
it was clearly in the last 24 hours
did you see in the news this week
well there's been loads of stuff in the news
I wanted to talk about.
I saw that this man, right,
he tried to escape a Bolivian prison.
First of all, I wouldn't be trying to escape prison
in Bolivia.
I feel like you're just getting loads of trouble.
But anyway, as a sheep.
Yeah.
Did you see the pictures of that?
I saw something, some man in a fleece
or something. No, he was, he wrapped himself in sheepskin and was, he was crawling through the
grassland surrounding the jail, like with the little sheepskin on him, trying to just like
canter out of, out of jail. Canter out of jail. Yeah. He was trying to canter out.
Imagine, imagine putting on the fleece sheepskin thing and being like, oh, they'll never know. And the size of him, like he wasn't, he was a big man.
He was a large sheep, a large sheep. Fair play to him. I like, I admire his creativity.
Spenny said he would try and break out of prison immediately. I'm too much of a wimp,
I think. It would really take me a while to work up to breaking out of prison
but like I definitely think I'd give it a go
some people, this murderer
arranged a friend to fly
a helicopter onto the courtyard
and the four masked men
got out of the helicopter
and cut through two heavy metal doors
and escaped, your man escaped
so they literally flew into
like that's pretty,
where was that? Because that must have been very, that must have been an expensive exercise.
And then he tried to escape again. No, El Chapo. Sorry.
El Chapo?
A tunnel. Yeah. El Chapo.
He's the famous dude.
Yeah. Well, he's escaped prison loads of times. The second time he built a tunnel under the jail.
So people built a tunnel for him under the jail in Mexico and 33 feet underground, nearly a mile long.
And he had lights and everything in the tunnel.
I think, wasn't he a very important person? Emma, who's he again?
He's a Mexican former drug lord.
That's it. A Mexican former drug lord that's it a Mexican
former drug lord
he's who I'm moving
all the grass for
that's him
El Chapo
Frank Morris
who was a bank robber
and three others
escaped from
Alcatraz
fake heads were made
of paper mache
very artistic
yeah
and hair
from the barbershop
tools barely suitable
for assembling
Ikea living room set
helped the prisoners
to access
an unguarded
ventilation shaft
but the thing about
escaping from
have you ever been to Alcatraz?
Unguarded
imagine your job
was just guard a ventilation shaft
imagine like
training up in security
you're like
not humans
just ventilation shafts
they made themselves a little raft
because obviously it's a rebound current.
They just, if you can escape from Alcatraz,
you should just be allowed to leave.
You deserve it.
Yeah.
Do you ever watch Bound Up Abroad?
Yeah, it really frightens me.
I'm surprised you haven't ended up somewhere like that.
It's so good.
But like a lot of them, they do escape.
I know.
There's some particularly good episodes where they escape
and it's
it's always
it's usually Bolivia
Bolivia must have a weak
security system actually
because I think
I'm not the first person
I've heard
to escape from Bolivia
I'd say you wouldn't
escape in Japan
and I don't think
you'd escape in Thailand
have you seen the film
Broke Down Palace
with Claire Danes
and Kate Beckinsale
yeah
that's a good film
it's brilliant
but it's not real
but I did think it was
at the time
but apparently
they didn't get on.
Oh well I don't think
I wouldn't get on
with her either
Kate Beckinsale
she's too much of a ride
have you seen her?
She's not real.
I only hang out
with mingers
isn't that right Joanne?
Whoop whoop whoop
whoop whoop
whoop whoop
I don't hang out with anyone over four out of 10.
So obviously I had a slow week, but one of the things that I was, an article I was reading about
was the fact that pistachios are like the new thing I like to see what the trends are you know what I mean if it's like lots of
pistachios what's going on pistachios they're saying it's like gonna be everything pistachio
eye cream pistachio spread pistachio butter why is pistachios I don't know so I don't know who
makes the decision I don't know someone's up there going avocados you're right pistachios
you're in I don't know how it works that's know who makes the decision. I don't know. Someone's up there going, avocados, you're out, pistachios, you're in.
I don't know how it works.
That's what's actually happened.
Yeah, there's food trends.
Like remember it was like prawn cocktails.
No, I don't remember it being prawn cocktails.
I still love a prawn cocktail, Chris.
Well, it was the 80s,
but like there's always these trends.
Oh yeah, yeah.
If you've got a bit of downtime
and you're in your office,
I'm talking to people listening to the pod now,
have a look at We Want Plates. It's really funny. So it's just all these photos of
people trying to serve food on these ridiculous things like shovels and spades. And one of them
was like a fry. Someone served it out of a jar. I know they're trying to be interesting,
but imagine going on a date with a lad and watching him trying to lick mashed potato
out of a fishbowl. I think that's kind of sexy.
I'd like, do you know,
yeah, because they think you'll go
if their chips are served
on like a rustic boomerang
or something.
I do like an old chip
in a pretend fish basket,
a pretend little metal basket.
I like it.
You mean a trolley?
Yeah, I love it.
I love a chip in a trolley.
A chip in a trolley.
Yeah, that's the thing.
Where are those fucking
tiny shopping trolleys?
What's the crack with them?
Those little shopping trolleys should come with little canals
so you can throw them in after.
Where they truly belong.
Where they truly belong.
And do you know what else I love?
I love soup in a bread bowl.
Like when the bowl is bread.
You never had that?
No.
When they dig out the middle of the bread
and then they put soup in it
and then the soup soaks into your bread
and you eat crusty. Oh, it's amazing.
But anyway, so I was looking at all these weird food servings and there was like asparagus
being served in plant pots and stuff. Some of them are hilarious. But then I came across this.
So there's a place you can get a croissant and inside the croissant is a piece of sushi.
Oh God, that's rotten.
I know I sound like a born again Christian,
but that's not normal.
Like that's not normal.
Sushi in a croissant?
No, but I have seen a croissant sandwich,
which is pretty nice.
It's like getting a scone and then cutting it open.
There's like a Tamagotchi inside.
It doesn't make any sense.
Tell me, Joanne sends me these weird snippets
when we're trying to do stuff for the pod.
So all week I'll just get these weird random stories
that she sent.
I actually didn't read it.
I only saw the headline.
What happened with Tiger Woods?
Now that you're a golfer,
what happened with your friend Tiger Woods?
Well, now that I'm in the golfing business
and the golfing industry,
Tiger Woods was playing with some other lad.
You know me, I don't know the details.
Anyway, your mom wasn't playing that well
and Tiger Woods slipped him a tampon as a joke,
i.e.
like you're playing
like a girl,
i.e.
you're pathetic.
And of course,
I mean,
Tiger Woods doesn't have
the best reputation as it is.
So of course it kicked off.
I think that's really unusual
for Tiger Woods
to do something like that
about women.
Really?
What?
Tiger Woods is saying to women?
We're all shocked.
That's so strange.
Where the hell did he get a tampon? Like, does he just carry the tampon around as a joke? Well, I had a look,
I zoom in on the tampon and it looks cheap as shit. It doesn't even have an applicator. Like,
it was, you could tell it was a light. This is the thing. Like, look, as a comedian and Vogue
yourself also as a fellow comedian, we respect, we respect anyone's right to make a joke.
Yeah.
We respect your right to make a joke.
But this whole period thing as a weakness,
it does trigger me.
Like-
It annoys me because you know what?
I will say I feel a little bit weak
when I have my period sometimes.
And I know I shouldn't say that,
but I feel emotional.
I feel sore and I feel extra tired
and I don't need people
being in a horse hole
about that
yeah because you're shedding
you're shedding your uterus
also the fact that
he gave him a light tampon
it's even more offensive
that wouldn't even wet
the sides of an actual period
like
get me super plus now bitch
super plus
I was like
if I used that
the force of my cycle
would push it out so hard
it would crack the patio
so slipping him
kind of a tampon light.
Also, he's got a daughter. He's got a teenage daughter.
I know, but he's Tiger Woods. He's just a bit like, he's just a bit stupid.
Do you know what I think he is? I think he's obviously very well respected in my
sport, but like, and an amazing player. I think he's a bit immature. That's what happens when
you're a billionaire.
I know.
He is so filthy rich.
I actually met him before
and I was DJing
at this event in Melbourne
and he was kind of nice
to be honest.
But that was just before
Yeah, it was just before
all that stuff came out
about all the women.
So he was probably looking
for more women.
I actually felt sorry for him
because like,
whatever.
It's a stupid joke.
It's a kind of
a teenage boy joke
yeah then of course he got absolutely rinsed and people are like what about period poverty
do you know what I mean there's countries that don't have yeah I know yeah I know these things
always escalate it's like uh-oh he was like I was just trying to be a wanker with the lads
and I got caught There was one more story about, in German, there's a word, right?
One of my favorite words.
Oh my God.
I read, I read.
I know exactly what you're going to say.
I read this this week.
Sitzblinker.
Spitzblinkers.
Sitzblinkler.
Sitzblinkler.
Yeah.
Well, we love that word.
It's actually very hard to pronounce.
It's actually very hard to pronounce.
Sitzblinkler.
A man who sits to pee.
70% of men stand because they've always stood.
Women sit.
Now, I will say Amber and I used to practice standing and weeing when we were younger,
but that was just something we did.
It's not really, actually.
You just have to face forward.
No, you just face forward.
Yeah.
Look at Emma.
Emma, have you never had a wee standing up
I have
yeah I'm going to do my next wee
standing up
as an act of desperation
but apparently in Germany
they're mad for this
they're really trying to advocate
for to sit down
I think it's like a health thing
so they have toilet seats
that when you lift the seat
it'll come out
apparently you can get it
in Angela Merkel's accent
to say
please sit down
please sit down
please sit down
take a break take a minute 70% of men in Japan sit Apparently you can get it in Angela Merkel's accent to say, please sit down, please sit down, please sit down.
Take a break. Take a minute. 70% of men in Japan sit. 70% of Germans stand. 70% of men sit. I'd actually rather they sat because I mean, honestly, like there's always dribbles on the floor. I live in a house with some men and it's not great. Like I wouldn't have, I wouldn't have a toilet. You know the way you get those toilet mats under your toilet don't bother like they just get pissed on it's gross there is something and I like I mean look I know I'm saying this I'm part of the problem but there's something a little emasculating about
sitting down and I know how a man urinates shouldn't impact me at all his body his choice
but I just feel like tuck in the willy sitting down it's's you know it's the tuck it's the tuck and rowl
I don't know
it's like
do you know
I just think piss against the wall
like a real man
that was my feeling on it
and I suppose
if I ever was a man
I think I would like to
like if I swapped body
with Spencer's
one of my things
that I always said
I'd do first
like I'd love to go
and do a wee
and see what it's like
to do a wee
like a man
that's the first thing
you would do
well no
obviously I'd have a wank and well no obviously I'd have a wank
and stuff like that
I'd have a wank
I'd go and have sex
with myself
obviously
go have sex
see what you're dealing with
what you can improve
yeah
score me out of 10
see how good I am
in the sack
yeah
see what it's like
to have sex
with a dead fish
yeah
I am the dead fish
why would I ride
a damn squid
I'm going to ride myself
see what happens
yeah but I saw that
that piece about
the spit sprinklers
and I did
I did think it was
very interesting
because the Germans
are mad for it
but I think it is
a health thing
or I think it's
a hygiene thing actually
it's also a hygiene thing
because in 2015
a court in Dusseldorf
ruled in favour
of a man's right
to urinate while standing when his landlord sought financial compensation for urine damage to the marble floor.
Not great urine damage.
Hold on a second.
What was that man drinking that he burnt through a marble floor?
Well, wee is like all the crap from your body.
You don't want wee going anywhere.
Yeah, but that's like you were drinking battery acid.
Like that's pretty intense
a marble floor
do you know what John
I was on stage
well before we went on
and I literally stood there
and I was like
why am I here
like I don't understand
why I'm doing this
do you ever get that feeling
sometimes with shows
the pressure is so much
that you are standing
in the wings
being like
why have I chosen to
why did I choose this life for myself? Like I could be,
do you know what I mean? Could be working in a petrol station, getting high in the fumes,
having a great time, thriving and striving. But why am I here?
Can we do, I've been threatening to do this for weeks. It's still in the pod document. I don't know why
I was looking at your tweets, but I was going through your tweets and then I thought I'd
actually go through and find some very funny ones that you probably don't remember tweeting.
This one you won't remember from the 6th of December, 2016. You said older men were the
ideal boyfriends for two reasons. What were those reasons, Joanne?
I would say nearly dead and something about taking the house.
Wrong. Older men are ideal boyfriends. You can serve them Werther's Originals for dinner
and their cataracts mean you'll always appear filtered.
Oh yeah, I forgot. I used to do that. I actually used to do that cataract joke. Let's bring that
back. Cataracts. I used to say cataracts. They're God's Paris filter.
That was the joke.
Thanks, Vogue.
It's great to brainstorm.
The 28th of November, 2019.
You were going on BBC Five Live to talk about what two things?
Oh, what year was this?
2019.
Had COVID happened then?
What was going on in 2019?
This is one of my favourite tweets.
Yes, hello. I'll be on BBC 5 Live
at 11pm
talking about clitorises
and Prince Andrew
Oh yeah
that was during the whole
Prince Andrew and clitoris debacle
Strange
I've never
I haven't heard from BBC 5 Live
in a while
Go on
What accident did you witness in a coffee shop that you said was the most exciting thing to happen to you all day?
Did someone spill something hot on themselves?
I assume I saw someone else in pain and got a sick thrill from it.
Something dark and weird.
Sitting in a very loud coffee shop watching a handyman drill a new lock
onto a disabled toilet door.
I know there's a woman in the toilet.
He does not.
He's drilling her in.
I'm saying nothing because I work alone
and this is the most exciting thing
that's happened to me all day.
Do you know what's so weird?
I read a tweet the other day
that was almost that word for word,
except it wasn't a disabled toilet.
So I'm wondering, did I watch it happen? Because I was obviously trying to write material
and I would test it on Twitter. I probably saw someone drilling and then just in my mind was
like, what would be funnier about this? There'd be someone on the inside. I don't have an original
thought in my body. It was probably a lie. Or else she's still in there.
Just skeletal.
I actually want to do one more. One more, I promise. Okay. You compared it to drinking a can of soup through a straw. You said nothing disturbs you more than what?
Bloody Marys? Nothing more disturbing than watching someone drink red wine in the sun.
It's as confusing as if I had to watch someone floating around in a lilo drinking a can of soup
through a straw.
It's just testing
the comedic water.
It's probably got two likes,
doesn't it?
Like you are,
like the way you drink wine
is disgusting.
You would drink
really warm wine.
You put your wine
in a microwave.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
No, I won't have that said.
You do.
I put red in the microwave. I put white in the freezer she's very kind to herself that girl I'm a ditch pig when it comes
to booze but I wouldn't drink hot white and that is my that is my that is my boundary I have a
standard I need to get white wine drunk with you I, I'm just so frightened of the hangover the next day, but it really is a lovely feeling of warmth.
I'd love that.
Vogue,
we are so overdue.
Like,
because me and Vogue
work together now.
So everything is so worky,
worky, work, work, work, work, work.
We're actually really overdue
because every time then
we rearrange to go out together,
your family comes along,
all 28 of them,
which is fine,
but you know.
Yeah, no.
Might be nice to just
me and you do something
yes
well I
we will organise a date
we'll go out
and it'll be lovely
yeah because it's all
work work work work work
I know I know
I feel very like that now
at the moment
to be honest with you
a boring little cow
but I am
flying home tomorrow
and I'm only bringing
one child
how about that
got rid of the other two.
Joanne doesn't like them
so I said I won't bring them back this time.
Who's getting left behind?
Well, your least favourite's coming over.
Who's your least favourite?
Spencer.
He's not coming at all.
I told him he's not invited anymore.
Otto is coming over with me.
Ah, baby Grotto.
We love him.
Smiler.
over with me ah
baby Grotto
we love him
the smiler
