This is a Global Player Original Podcast.
Welcome to My Therapist Ghosted Me with me, Vogue Williams, and her, Joanne McNatty.
It's been quite the week. Let's get into it.
Good morning. Good morning.
We're not going to call it good morning. We're just going to say morning because it's yet
to be decided whether it's going to be good or not. And so far, the last 10 minutes were
painful.
I've had a nice morning. Well, I've had a nice morning. I've had a nice morning. I can't,
I can't lie. I have had a nice morning. And also to add to that morning, I finally got Joanne to,
to record the pod at a time that suits me down to the ground, 8am.
Hold on, how have you had a nice morning? Have you had any sort of experience before now? What
have you, what time did you get up at? Well, Otto also woke me at 10 to 6 then I coaxed him back asleep about quarter past 6 because I was like you know you're supposed
to get up with them at 6 because that's meant to be a normal time to wake up uh I don't think
that's true I tried to sleep till 7 so I got to sleep till 7 had breakfast with Gigi who's going
around like she looks like a little old woman she's got a dressing gown on slippers a handbag
which she has at all times and she just goes around looking like a little old woman she's got a dress and getting on slippers a handbag which she has at all times
and she just goes around
looking like a little old woman
trying to put a water bottle
in this tiny little satchel
when Otto wakes you up
what does he
like
what does he
does he just like
come in and
shake you
what does he
what does he do
so he just walks in
and he just says
mama
mama
and then I just
he walks in
yeah yeah on his legs on his legs yeah just walks in and he just says, Mama, Mama. And then I just... He walks in?
Yeah, yeah.
On his legs?
On his legs, yeah.
He walks in.
No, he doesn't.
He walks in and he says,
Morning, Mama.
No, I'm sorry.
You're trying to suggest
Otto walks in
with a cryptic crossword
and a coffee.
He's like two or something.
No, he doesn't do crosswords.
He likes...
What's that other one called?
You know that other one?
Sudoku. Sudoku. That's what he likes. He likes, what's that other one called? You know that other one? Sudoku.
Sudoku, that's what he likes.
He's really good at Sudoku.
He just wanders in,
having just solved a Rubik's Cube,
and we start the day.
That's exactly how we started our day this morning.
I wanted to talk to you about Otto,
because it's his Christmas thing this week.
I know.
I know as in,
is that an I know I'm not coming,
or an I know I can't wait? Of course I'm coming. I know as in, is that an I know I'm not coming or an I know I can't wait?
Of course I'm coming.
I'm just worried because I'm in, I've took leave for Southend.
I'm in Southend that Sunday night.
And I'm just worried that the queue for the Godmothers is going to be so long that I'll be late for my show.
That's what I'm worried about.
But I'm going to be there.
But I need to get in first.
Well, I thought that we could start right?
I have some questions
for you about Otto.
Yes I will perform at the christening
thank you. Yes I will.
I'm sure the
priest would absolutely love you
imagine. I swear
to God that priest would throw us out
if you went on stage. Listen
if there's a mic on that altar,
you'd want to keep me away.
You're lucky I can't see anything at the moment because when I'm around
a mic, no one's there.
Look at the shades. Where's the other ones? I love
those black ones. And wine.
Mic and day wine. Mic and
day wine in a church.
Good luck. You should
have become a nun. What are you doing with your
life? Wrong profession.
Do you know Spenny always, he's
like, he is, he has a thing
for like, if I was to dress up, I haven't
done it yet, by the way, before.
If I was to dress up in a nun outfit,
he said that all men think that, Jo. I don't
think so. I really hope we can keep that
in, because that's...
He's into a bit of, well, he's
into nuns. I suppose it's the celibacy
it's kind of hot I guess
the kind of no no
oh no
basically I think what's he saying
he gets enough of that shit at home what are you talking about
no
I literally find myself sometimes doing like
like you know when you do that like when you'd be
in school you'd be like oh no
please no
and I know
he's coming back
from a week long trip today
and I've had a great time alone
haven't had to do anything
I've been living
a happy celibate life
and now he's coming home
and he's like
oh I'm gonna get you
and I'm like
oh no
gross
put a gum shield
on your crotch
lock it up
get a shutter
like they do for the shops
oh my god yes basically Spencer Spencer's suggesting that he wants to dress up as own what he's actually suggesting it up. Get a shutter like they do for the shops.
Oh my god, yes.
Spencer's suggesting that he wants to dress up as own. What he's actually suggesting
and what I believe he is suggesting
is he wants to ride a virgin.
And you can tell him that fucking ship
is well sailed with you.
I'm sorry, my friend.
That's why
it has to be a fantasy
so extreme he needs you in a
habit on a floor
then black dress
I'm even worse
than you are
my friend
sister Vogue
sister Vogue
no
oh back to the
christening
back to the
christening
stop
you're gonna get me
barred again
I swear
sorry
um
uh
she gets me to lose
jobs I'm sure that Theodore didn't get into
a school of choice at the start because
of this podcast oh come on
two jobs and one school
for your child you lost like go on
what have you
gained folk what have you gained
this is exactly true actually
I'm absolutely convinced of it
okay if you want to skip the godparent queue which is excessively long this is exactly true actually I'm absolutely convinced of it okay
if you want to skip
the godparent queue
which is excessively long
for the christening
and you know what
I was actually telling
the priest
because you have to tell him
who's going to be there
all Irish godparents
you'll be happy to hear
all Irish
James
Ciarán
you Megan
that's a good squad
like we could have
a good sesh Wanda
let's get I was going to say you chose well none of us are going to live till our 50s Ciarán, you Megan. That's a good squad. We could have a good sesh, Wanda.
I was going to say,
you chose well,
none of us are going to live until our 50s.
You're going to have to rebook
when we all die.
I'm actually,
now that I've mentioned the group,
I'm like, shit,
I better have champagne
in my house beforehand
because they won't hold out
until one o'clock.
I'll get you to my house
around 12,
we'll start drinking.
Is there, like is it a proper mass
like are we
kind of shaking hands
and eating Eucharists
and stuff
I'm all about it
I love a good mass
I haven't been in ages
I know
another vibe
I was thinking that like
I didn't even think of any readings
because I just
I just thought
I just thought
it's a quick thing
in and out
christening
on the head
done I love reading so I'm happy to choose I just thought it's a quick thing. In and out, christening, on the head, done.
I love reading, so I'm happy to choose.
You could sing, Em, our father, who art in heaven.
Do you remember that song?
I always knew the words, because obviously it's the same as the prayer, so it was quite handy.
And we didn't have a father, so we were always screaming for them.
Our fathers were actually in heaven. So it was quite handy. And we didn't have a father, so we were always screaming for them. We were like, what's happening?
Our fathers were actually in heaven.
Freddie, up in heaven.
Oh my God, I started crying on mine and Spencer's pod the other day because I was reading, I don't know, I don't know how it happened.
Anyway, I was reading about what happens to a body.
You don't want to know.
I'm not telling you.
I won't upset your day.
You've already had a bad morning.
I know what happens. You explode. You pretty much do. You'm not telling you. I won't upset your day. You've already had a bad morning. I know what happens. You explode.
You pretty much
do. You just liquefy. You liquefy.
No, all the gases
get trapped and you blow up.
No, you don't blow up.
That's not what it said.
I'm telling you, it's called casket gas.
You blow up, they have to stick a fork in you like a
sausage in the grill to release
all the gases because if you didn't, just expand you have enough holes in your body to
get the gases out no no no no no you don't you don't you don't have to come out speaking
speaking of things like that like supposedly what this is for the gangsters who murder people and
chuck them in a river you're meant to stab the body so it sinks just in case yeah I was into hooligans growing up
I've seen the shit
go down
if you want to
skip the queue
right
you need to answer
five of these
very simple questions
first and the fact
that you half believed
Otto walked into me
this morning
does not fare well
for you
well I did
I did think it
sounded a hundred
percent
I was like maybe he cops in on one. I didn't think it sounded a hundred percent.
I was like,
maybe he cops in on one leg.
I didn't think he'd be using the two legs at this stage.
Go on, why?
Okay.
What is Otto's middle name?
Parenthesis or something,
is it?
Parenthesis.
Otto Cornelius.
That was a really easy one.
You didn't get it.
Otto James.
Oh, grand.
Okay, fine.
His initials are OJ.
Not great.
My cousin told me that just before
and he was like,
you can't call him that.
I was like, I can call him that.
No one's going to be like,
oh, here, OJ.
Like, they'll just forget about the James part.
Well, now I know what I'm getting for his christening.
A silver necklace
with his initials
OJ
dangling off the end
I thought you were
going to say
something much more sinister
I'm going to take him
for his tattoo
his first tattoo
I'll be like
he won't remember OJ
since he'll be too young
I'll be like
you need to get OJ
tattooed on your chest
your mum will be delighted
now when was he born
I'm not going to ask you the date I know you won your mum would be delighted now when was he born I'm not going to ask you
the date
I know you won't know
the date
but what month
was he born
it was around
Christmas time
oh come on
what
how do you know
February
April
what's February
shit
oh
Christmas time
she says Christmas time
someone was born oh sorry that was Jesus sorry Shit. Christmas time. She says Christmas time.
Someone was born.
Oh, sorry.
That was Jesus.
Sorry.
I knew someone was born at Christmas time.
Well, I don't even know why I'm going to bother asking these other questions.
Come on.
I'll ask a few easier ones.
Does he have any teeth yet well I mean
I could be pedantic
and say yes
they're all there technically
because I've seen the x-rays
on Buzzfeed
all your teeth
are stacked up
ready to pop
does he have any coming through
I would say no
well done
ding ding ding ding ding
she got one right
he's all gum at the moment gorgeous Well done. Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding. She got one right.
He's all gum at the moment.
Gorgeous.
It's such an old little man smile.
He scrunches up his nose.
I didn't want to say that,
but it absolutely is.
He looks like my granddad when my granddad used to give me
his teeth to clean
and then he'd smile.
Why do my kids look like old people?
Honestly, I'm going to send you a video
of Gigi this morning
wandering around like a granny
and then him like a grandad sitting over the other side.
Their skin is beautiful though.
I'd love to have that skin.
Skin is beautiful.
Is he eating proper food yet?
No, if he's got no teeth,
there's no way he's sitting down eating like chops and all.
But I would say he, well, you, God knows what you're feeding him.
Probably like pigs on a spit
or something
Mummy caught a hippo
I haven't had any meat
this morning by the way
thank you
Kay
Mummy caught the children
of snow leopard
but they're about to go extinct
oh God
catch more
we need to stock up
any chance anyone
sent you those
taxidermy knickers?
I've been sent them so much.
They're actually gorgeous.
They're like,
they're like this cowhide.
They look like cowhide knickers.
What?
No, no one sends me anything.
Taxidermy knickers.
Can I just say something as well?
And it's becoming offensive,
everybody.
Anytime I post something something even if i
don't even think it's embarrassing people are like oh wait joanne sees this i can't wait to
see what joanne says about that i'm like do you just think joanne spends her whole life trolling me
i'm actually very supportive of your decisions
it's literally about
everything I post
folks
I could post a tribute
to my dad
and they'd be like
oh wait till Jan
gets her hands on this one
but because Vogue
is like
she's the
she's a brand's wet dream
I kind of she kind of throws me in sometimes as part of the deal.
Like, I'll do it, but you have to give Joanne something.
I'm like a bargaining, like the tragic, like fucking sister in the basement.
I love this colour, but Joanne would love that colour.
Just in case.
You're going to have to give Joanne something.
You're going to have to give her something.
Pair of taxidermy knickers
come on give her something please
yeah she needs them
okay two more
can Otto say any words
I would say he is saying mama
no wrong
does he not say anything yet
he doesn't say anything yet
wow is that normal
yeah
he is not behind in his development of that i was gonna say i admire i admire your
honesty just telling us that he's behind in his development it's so unusual for a mother
as his godmother what is his favorite thing to do smile oh he does he does he smiles a lot he's one
of the smiliest babies i've ever seen he's got loads
to smile about
he's got the life
of Riley
I know but
sometimes we are
like what is he
what is he so happy
about all the time
it's 100%
of the time
that his eyes
are open
he's happy
he's the best baby
so basically
you're at the back
of the queue
you're outside
the church
at this stage
I'm going to let
my mom and everyone go in front of you
to give him a kiss
let me show you something
because I know
that you love an olden day baby
do you want to sneak peek
of what he's wearing
this is Theodore's
old christening outfit
have you ever seen
something so cute
hold on a second
is that
so that was what Theodore wore
and that's what
Anna was going to wear
yeah
Paul Costolo
made it for Theodore
and Theodore
shat all over it
but actually
Paul Costolo
Paul Costolo
made it for him
and Theodore
shat all over it
but shout out to
Isle of Arning
who I paid by the way
but they
they got the stains
I couldn't believe it
one day
how is that possible
my question is
so and this is a
genuine question
so
what do you get
children for christening
is it still
like can I give them
a hundred quid
do you get like
well I'll tell you what
he won't be getting
a hundred quid
it was me a few bob
we're on tour.
Plug, plug, plug, plug.
Plug, plug, plug.
Where are we?
Get out the adapter
while we plug
our fucking
plug 28 venues.
We need a three pronger.
You know those ones
that fit three plugs
in at the same time?
We should just hire
an electrician
to come in and do it for us
because we're terrible
at plugging ourselves.
Oh God, the cough's back.
Oh, she's smoking again, girls.
I actually did have
a couple of cigarettes
the other day.
Did you?
Yeah, I was like,
don't start this now.
This is a slippery slope.
I was really anxious
about a show
and yeah,
I lent on the old,
lent on a fag.
I lent on a fag
for the evening. Hoisted myself up in a fag. I lent on a fag for the evening.
Hoisted myself up in a fag.
But like I say, it's a hide into nothing.
Zero stars.
Do you know what it is?
Sometimes your body, you have these feelings that you feel like are going to be calmed or diluted by a cigarette.
The second I light it, every single time I'm like, this is disgusting.
And I either put it out or sometimes I'll smoke it just, I don't know, because I'm like, this is disgusting. And I'll either put it out or sometimes I'll smoke it just,
I don't know,
because I'm like,
waste not what not.
I'm sure this,
but you know,
whatever.
So you just smoke it,
but there's,
I literally can't,
I don't enjoy anything at all,
any of them anymore.
But sometimes I do fall into L patterns.
It's like,
even when we were on holidays,
like I would start,
because Amber smoked
and I was like,
go on,
give us a smoke.
And I'd literally have like two drugs.
I'd be like,
do you want my smoke?
Cause I feel so sick.
But like,
for some reason when you're drinking,
you like,
you like struggle through the feeling sick part.
You're like,
no,
I gotta smoke.
I'm drinking.
I'm doing all the stuff I shouldn't do.
It's not for me.
Um,
I've just Googled christening gifts.
Yes.
Cause all I know is I got loads of little tiny spoons and all.
Yeah, that is the kind of jazz.
That's what you get.
Yeah, you get tiny spoons, little bracelets,
all this stuff that you'll never wear.
Well, you might wear a bracelet.
Well, I started a credit union firm.
That's what people do.
I think my mom's setting up the post office account,
so that's not for you.
That's my mom's doing people do I think my mom's setting up the post office account so you're that's not for you that's my mom's doing that I don't know I was looking up as well because like I've got this girl making a cake for me um she was like what will I put in the cake and I was like
Jesus I don't know and I started googling what to put in a christening cake but it was like
a bit full-on I said just put yeah just put also James and they're like the flames of hell
that he's no longer going to.
Welcome into the Lord's arms, Otto.
Now that might be a bit full on
for the guest list I have coming.
We'll just assume it's a gay disco.
Yeah, we're heading to the Lord's arms after, yeah?
Oh my God, I hope you don't
go on fire
when you walk
into the church
that's a strong
possibility
I have a surprise
I don't want
any jealous eyes
okay
okay
something arrived
last night
oh my god
Who's that?
Focus
Focus waving a pair of
Dewberries
Into the camera
I
And
They did the little
Twirly laces for me
Oh my god
Show hold them up again there
To say
To say I'm thrilled
And they make your feet
Look small
So for someone who has
Actual boat feet
Like me If If something Imagine these A pair of denim shorts thrilled and they make your feet look small so for someone who has actual boat feet like me if
if something imagine these pair of denim shorts little white t-shirts i'm gonna be so cool it
actually do you know what right i they just bring suddenly i'm just i'm back i'm eating cheddar
cheese sandwiches in the yard like all my all my memories of being whatever age it was in a war
that was like coming back my my gabardine is wet in a puddle at the back.
Like drag about.
At least you didn't go for the brown ones.
But you have kind of a summer look, which is quite yachty.
Like you do quite have quite a nautical look.
And they would look good for that nautical look.
I think I'm booking a holiday to France.
That's where I'm going to go.
These belong in France.
And they sent me these wellies.
And supposedly Rod Stewart loves them.
All the cool people love their wellies.
And now I have a pair.
I've joined their gang.
How do Dubris know that Rod Stewart loves his wellies?
Because obviously they've spotted them in the wellies.
The royal family go around in the wellies.
And now Vogue Williams wears the wellies.
Not Joanne McNally.
She's not.
Royal,
you're royal family adjacent.
What does that mean?
Kind of,
you're not in them
but you're kind of sniffing around.
Aren't we all?
No.
We are not.
Oh my God,
speaking of people like that,
Bob Geldof
spotted him in Battersea Park
the other day.
I said,
how's that knighthood going, huh? Do you regret taking that, Bob Geldof spotted him in Battersea Park the other day. I said, how's that knighthood going, huh?
Do you regret taking that, Bob?
Do you regret that?
People of Ireland.
It's like,
you're like,
give us a bit of that knighthood.
Do you remember in Mean Girls
where he broke up the crown
and gave it to loads of people?
That's what Vogue wants Bob
to do with his knighthood.
She's sweating for a bit of knighting.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I have to get this in, right?
I have to get it in.
Bear by Vogue are having a Black Friday sale 30% off.
Would you believe, Joanne?
30% off until midnight on the 28th.
But you don't have to buy anything because you get it for free.
Vogue, do you know what I wouldn't believe?
That we're like 48 minutes into the podcast
and you've talked all about yourself
and now you're plugging Bared by Vogue
and no one has talked about the fact that I'm blind.
Well, I tried to bring it up earlier
but you brushed past
I certainly didn't
blindness is not
something you brush past
Vogue
but you're not blind
you were blind
and now you can see
I think that's a quote
from the Bible
oh god
the priest doesn't
listen to the pod.
Will you relax?
Now your eyes
look great to me
but that could be
because you weren't
drinking last night.
Who said I wasn't
drinking last night?
Jo, do you remember
that time she turned up
on the pod
when she said
she'd gone sober
and your eyes
were like this
crystal clear colour.
I was like,
I've never seen them like that
She looked like a Disney character
Yeah I remember it so well
My poor little eyes
So come here to me
where are your fancy glasses? I much prefer
the other ones
I know the ones that they
so basically got laser done Jo
was it how many times did you get laser eye surgery?
Yeah you told us very late in the game.
And I said,
I said, Joanne,
I don't think you're going to be able to record the pod tomorrow.
No, I will, yeah. I was like,
I don't think you're going to be able to. No, I will.
I will. Okay. Yeah, I know.
Do you know what my problem is?
I don't think about anything. I just
kind of do it and I don't
think, like, anyway, basically,
sorry, just to explain.
I haven't noticed that of you, Jo.
I don't dwell on things, which sometimes is great and sometimes is beneficial and sometimes it's a disadvantage.
So for laser eye surgery, it was a bit of a disadvantage.
I was like, hey, it's grand, they're just laser in the eyes.
I'll be back online in an hour.
Wait there.
Opt to Laze, who very kindly gifted me the gift of sight back in the day
laser eye surgery yeah they'd like literally like they'd pull out an eye and all this but now oh my
god so it's all done by computer so you go in they scan all your eyes and everything right
and then they program this computer now obviously there's a surgeon there it's not like you're just
going in and sitting in front of a till in Tesco.
What was your vision before?
Bad. I don't know what
number it was. If there's 20, 20, I don't
know how it works. I think I was like 1.5 or
something. I don't know where I'm getting that from. I could
be making that up. But I'd failed my driving test,
eye test. That's how bad I was.
So like screens in the
airport, couldn't read. You know what I mean?
Like I didn't know what flight
I was getting on half the time.
All that jazz.
Blind as a bat.
And it's 15 seconds on each eye.
That's it.
Done.
And it was so funny though.
You're the nurse, Fiona.
She's really sound.
And she was like,
listen, just, you know,
this is what happens
and this is what happens
and they talk you through it all. And then then she was like and there's a smell of burning
in the second machine but it's not it's not as burning off your eye it's just the smell of the
gas from the machine so just you know like people think it's it's not it's not don't worry about it
and I was like all right grand she goes that's just like a myth I was like all right cool then
it turns out I have this thing called dry eye. So there was an extra bit of drama around that. Cause you need wet eyes for surgery.
Anyway.
So I met the surgeon.
He was really saying as well.
And he's like,
listen,
just,
you know,
but,
and then there's this smell of gas and that is us vaporizing the
iris.
And Fiona,
the nurse was in the room and you could see her just kind of going
really rigid.
And I was like,
Fiona,
you liar.
Because basically he'd ratted her out.
It is,
that is what it is.
But she was trying to protect people.
She's trying to keep her patients calm.
But anyway,
so it just burns for a second.
And then it's over.
But you can't feel a thing.
Nothing.
Now, I wouldn't be reckoning.
What do they give you for it though?
Tonics or something?
No.
Nothing.
No.
They do put like,
what do you call it
eye drops
they put drops in your eyes
yeah
that are like anesthetic
yeah exactly
sorry
anesthetics in the eyes
okay
but
and that's it
and you're right
it's amazing
and I've got
oh they put flaps in your eyes
I don't know why
I don't know what that is
he's like
then we put the flaps in
so I've got little pockets
in my eyes now little pockets if you want it and store it I don't know I've got little pockets in eyes. I don't know why. I don't know what that is. He's like, then we put the flaps in. So I've got little pockets in my eyes now.
Little pockets.
Do you want it in storage?
I don't know.
I've got little pockets
in my eyes.
I don't know.
He just said we put flaps
in your eyes.
I don't know what that means.
Who knows?
I don't know.
All I know is now
I've got eyes like the Matrix.
I can see into the future.
I can see through walls.
And now I'm on steroids
for the eyes.
Steroids for the eyes.
Can you put eye makeup on? Little drops. No, no eye makeup for the eyes. Steroids for the eyes? Can you put eye makeup on?
Little drops.
No, no eye makeup for two weeks.
Little steroids into the eyes.
Eye drops.
So I was like,
should I be going into the gym now?
Hang on, are you with those glasses
the whole time now?
You're showing up on Sunday
and keeping those things on all day?
No.
So when you first get it done,
you're really sensitive to light.
But that only lasts a couple hours
now I'm just wearing it
because I can't wear eye makeup
oh okay
well remember
Gina got her eyes done
and came to see you
in concert
and she said that you looked green
did you have any eyes
yeah no
no
I don't know where
sounds like she got hers done
on wish.com
I got mine done
with a very reputable company
but yeah
so my eyes are on steroids now
so they're probably
gamier than usual
and a little bit violent.
I'll be in the gym
eye fucking all the girls
at the weight machines.
And your pupils
will go really small
like the balls of your eyes
will go really small.
My eyes are,
yeah,
my eyes are yeah my eyes are
really gamey
but impotent
my eyes have never
been stronger
but they can't get it up
hello
but yeah anyway
because there's
I think people think
I would as well
that it's a very it's just because it's the eyes people think I would as well that it's a very
it's just because
it's the eyes
people are weird
about their eyes
naturally so
but like for
for it to take
30 seconds
to have eyesight
like that's unbelievable
it's crazy
it's like the future
it's like magic
and then yesterday
I had to wear
because I was getting
on a flight
and I had to wear
so much
like eye drops
oh my god Jo
you'd want to see me I looked like I crawled out from the
bottom of a gangbang my whole face was just
soaking wet because they'd like dripped
everywhere
yeah because you're a comedian now and you know it just comes with the
territory you're like it's called satire guys
okay
satire
that is another word
I'll have to google
I went to Winter Wonderland
last night
and I have decided
that we are going there
for our
work night out
we have to have a work night out
I have
have you ever been
no I haven't actually
oh my
I've never
I've realised now
well I knew this before
because I'm currently filming
a scary TV show
and they're like
can Vogue stop laughing
I
when I'm really frightened
I just laugh
I can't help it
it's like my nervous thing
that I do
I went on that
you know that slingshot ball
where two people sit in
and they slingshot you
oh my god it was so funny.
So we're having our work night out in Funderland.
Or no, not Funderland.
Winter Wonderland.
Funderland's in Ireland.
That's our winter wonderland.
It's called Funderland.
It's like our kind of Central Parks meets Disneyland meets Slough.
Yeah.
Is it in the RDS? I can Slough. Yeah. Is it in the RDS?
I can't remember.
Yeah, I don't know if it's still around, to be honest.
Thunderland was great crack.
None of yous are really, like, you're not,
you don't seem very excited by our working night out at Winter Wonderland.
We're going.
And we're going to go at like four o'clock on a Tuesday when there's no queues.
But what, so you don't, you haven't explained what it is.
What is Winter Wonderland?
So it's a huge,
like fairground kind of place,
like a carnival on steroids.
Like,
I mean like hundreds of rides.
They've loads of bars and stuff,
Joanne.
It's a place that everyone goes on the piss
and has the best time.
Loads of different food places.
And just basically all these fairground rides.
And I had the best time I've ever had.
What? Because I assumed because you brought the kids, I thought it was like a kind of a very,
you know, like a petting zoo kind of thing where there was like a reindeer and a grotto or
something. I didn't know what was going on. In the nicest way possible. I'm not bringing them
again. They kind of rained it for me at points. points they like I was like I'm gonna keep them
out and I'd usually be like bed at seven I was like we're having so much fun we're not going
home and then tea just started going downhill around eight I was like quick abort get them out
and everyone was having so much fun and I was like it was the press night so there was no queues
and it was like empty and so much fun but then tea was like and I had to go home what's the point of
bringing them they can't go on any of the rides
they're not the size of the chicken
was the chicken there
no they have different things
the cardboard chicken
T was allowed on loads of them
he is like
wild
for the rides
he loves them
he wants to go on all the roller coasters
and everything
wild for the rides is he
well well well
just like his mother I see
tiny whore tiny whore
tiny whore
it's so juvenile
like anytime an Irish person
sees ride used in like any other way
like we're like
it's like suddenly we're on a stag party
like we have to accept that every other country is
riding a different way we just won't let it go my auntie's husband is canadian he goes he goes
to me i'll never forget and this is honestly this is about 15 years ago he's like hey you need a
ride home and i was like he can't talk to me like that
You can't talk to me like that.
Joanne, I have a game for you.
Okay.
Okay.
You have to complete the comments.
Now, these are actual comments that were on your YouTube reviews
about your stand-up, right?
But I've removed one important word
and you have to guess what it is, right?
And they could be like reviews
from like your show, from The Guardian
and stuff like that. The Guardian!
Joanne, build a bus.
Well done.
The Guardian giving you reviews.
Like, who are you? That's very good.
It wasn't a review. I think they just interviewed me.
Okay, go on.
Most of Joanne's anecdotes on stage
make her sound especially horny, gamey. Okay. Most of Joanne's anecdotes on stage make her sound especially...
Horny.
Gamey.
Unruly.
Unruly.
That's very civilized.
With these YouTube comments,
you seem very civilized.
Yeah, well,
this is from the same reviewer.
The 30 not...
Oh, that's rude.
Sorry.
The 34-year-old inspires...
I love this one.
Oh, God.
Inspires, laughs, inspires...
Inspires passionate, if very drunken, devotion.
That's so cute. I love that.
Okay, this is from a YouTube clip Of your stand up
I love this girl
She makes me feel better
About being
Alone
Completely mental
Lol
This clip reminded me
To marry someone
Oh my god
To marry someone Irish To marry someone. Oh my God, to marry someone Irish?
Much younger than me.
I don't get it.
It must have been you talking about the 24-year-old or something.
Oh, fine.
Spread the good word.
I could do that all day. I love that game. Spreading the good word I could do that all day
I love that game
spreading good
spreading the good word
about the hot babies
they're everywhere
London is like
hot babies too
girl
she went to the hot babies
but now you're with
Alan and he is
he's a bit older than you
poor Alan
he was driving me
back and forth
from my eye surgery
and I was doing
these videos
being like
uh oh
what if I wake up
and he's a hog?
And he's like...
He's like, would you not just say something nice about me?
I was like, no.
What are you on about?
Are you out?
That's not how it works.
I can't wait till people start telling you
that you're really abusive towards your partner.
Do people say that to you?
No, they're like, folks already mean to Spencer.
I'm like, have you met him?
like come on
you have to slag him
you're flirting with him
it's born out of love
yeah
it absolutely is
do you know what's so funny
before we get into topics
do you know those ridiculous glasses
that I had to wear
to keep the light out
after the surgery
no I don't know
what ridiculous glasses
you're talking about
but I remember
the stunning glasses
you were wearing
yeah because you paid
500 quid for a pair of them
or something didn't you
I got them on sale
right 100 quid
thank you
well can I just say
I put them on
I couldn't get Alan off me
I was like
Alan
are you fucking
he was all over me
like a rat up a drain pipe
I was like
Alan please
I've just had surgery
on my eyes
he was like
those glasses
I was like
they're plastic.
I told you all.
He was going through the list.
When you could do, he's like, eye makeup.
When you, like, how long you have to wait.
He's like, two weeks.
Exercise a week.
Riding immediately.
He was honestly, couldn't get him off because I was wearing those plastic glasses
and I was like
Vogue owns these glasses
this is very concerning
to be honest Alan
do not throw the glasses out
in the news this week
have you seen
that Pete Davidson has struck again?
He's pulled another 50 out of 10.
He's with Emily Ratajkowski.
Emily Ratajkowski.
Emily Ratajkowski.
Bing, bing, bing.
Emily Ratajkowski.
I heard.
He's with her now.
Nobody knows.
He's been with Ariana Grande Kim Kardashian
Kate Beckinsale
Kaya Gerber
Olivia O'Brien
Phoebe Denyer
Cardi Aquino
Kazzy David
and Margaret Qualley
all
tens
all of them rise
you know one of them
one of his girlfriends
his longest girlfriend
was Larry David's daughter
this
if you don't know Larry David
he's a very funny comedian
and if you haven't watched
Curb Your Enthusiasm
watch it
but he was with her
for like two years.
That's his longest.
What's the quack?
He must be.
We don't,
I know,
we don't know.
He's obviously ejaculating truffles
or something.
No one can understand it,
but the man's doing something right.
Also,
I think it's a bit of an ongoing gag now,
no?
Like,
I think it's like,
he's the king of the rebounds.
So when you're, when you've just had a kind of a high profile breakup and you want a high profile rebound to piss off your ex.
That's awesome.
You're going to go a piece.
You're going to go a piece because you're like, you know, everyone knows he's hung.
That's, that's why this is happening.
We all know.
Yeah.
That's it, Joe.
He's hung.
Everyone knows he's hung.
That's like, that's what it is.
Big dick energy. Everyone Joe he's hung everyone knows he's hung that's like that's what it is big dick energy
everyone knows he's hung
so basically you're saying
to your ex-boyfriend
I'm getting ridden
sideways by a man
half your age
ha ha ha
that's basically
what you're saying
I know but that actually
makes sense to me now
because Kim had just
broken up with Kanye
now Kate Beckinsale
a few of the others
were just on their own
she's an absolute ride
we don't know
what's going on
behind closed doors
Pete Davidson definitely feels like he's an absolute ride. We don't know what's going on behind closed doors. Pete Davidson definitely
feels like he's a revenge ride.
Who would you do a revenge? I'd love to
revenge ride Bradley Cooper maybe.
Like this, you'd be
heartbroken. Heartbroken.
Who would I revenge ride
with? Oh,
Tom Hardy. Oh
yeah, that's a good choice.
Yeah, Tom Hardy. Or someone who kind of a good choice. Yeah. Tom Hardy.
Or someone who kind of looks like your partner that they wish.
Like I think the most heartbreaking one for Spence would be if I rode Jake Gyllenhaal.
But I don't think it's a revenge ride if you ride someone who looks like.
So I went out with this guy who then when we broke up started riding a girl who looks exactly like her.
It's like that speaks volumes.
Do you know what I mean?
It's not like,
it doesn't look like me
so I feel other
and like old news
where it's actually
you've just kind of.
Like if I dumped Spencer,
right?
If I didn't want to be with him
and he started riding.
I think you mean
when you dump Spencer,
please.
When the inevitable
finally happens,
yes?
If he started having sex
with Emily Radajkowski,
I would be on,
I'd have to move to a desert island.
I wouldn't be able to cope with seeing that.
Like that would just be,
like it would put me on edge.
Even if I didn't want him,
I didn't fancy him at all.
I'd just be like,
you'd be like, no.
Yeah, I know.
I mean, there's really no coming back
from Emily Ratajkowski.
No way. She's potentially one of the hottest women alive. Like I just hope she's an arsehole. I can't tell. yeah I know I mean there's really no coming back from Emily Ratajkowski no way
she's potentially
one of the hottest
women alive
I just hope
she's an arsehole
I can't tell
she hasn't really
there's not really
anything solid
to prove she's an arsehole
she might actually
be sound
and that good looking
how annoying
she must be
because she's found
Amy Schumer
and Amy's sound
Amy doesn't
suffer feels
she would be sound
there was
Pete did this thing right there's an app called the beauty meter Amy doesn't Amy doesn't suffer feels there was Pete
did this thing
right
there's an app
called the beauty
meter app
and
and it uses
science to tell
how beautiful you are
Emily got an 86
what a load of shit
she's 100
but Pete only got a 56
that's the power
with Pete though
that you're
you know
that he's
he's kind of
this normal dude
from Staten Island
who is now
a multi-millionaire
and is hung like a horse
and he's just living
his best life
riding like
these Hollywood A-listers
yeah because I'm
a fellow panda
I like
he has really bad
circles under his eyes
that's what mine look like
if I've no makeup on
and it's like
do you know what
people like that but they do there's girls going makeup on and it's like do you know what people like that
but they do
there's girls going in
trying to get it done now
you know that
stop it
no
you can get it done
I think it's really sexy
that kind of dark eye thing
thank you Joanne
do you know what's just
popped up in my calendar
Joanne at Palladium
evening tomorrow
if you knew how excited I was
you probably wouldn't let me go
is it completely sold out again?
It's sold out, yeah. Sorry,

she's gorgeous
she's very English
she buys ready salted crisps
and says things like
wicked
wicked
he's wicked
ready salted crisps
she bought me ready salted crisps
it's the only tantrum
I've ever thrown
I was like Sophie
ready salted like what the fuck it's I've ever thrown I was like Sophie ready salted
like what the fuck
it's not a flavour
it's not a flavour
I could just chug
a bottle of Saxa
do you know what I mean
just like
crack a box of sea salt
into my mouth
there's no crack in sea salt
why would anyone eat
salted crisps
I don't even think
we have them in Ireland
they're a disgrace
anyway with
with Pete and Emily
I started going down this hole
and I actually thought
it was quite mean
so I
I stopped doing it
after a short while
it was some couples
that had an attractiveness
like quite a large gap
it's very diplomatic
it's quite mean
isn't it very mean
one's hot and one's a munter
so the ones that came up
Beyonce and Jay-Z
Vogue Williams
and Spencer Matthews
but actually honestly
I was sitting there doing it
and I was like
this is absolutely cruel
like I did get about
eight people's names
but then I was like
like Megan Fox
Machine Gun Kelly
is this too mean
why is no one stopping me
we'll let you cancel yourself
you go ahead
yeah
it's been a week or so
since you've tried so
no no no no no no
cut all that
cut all that
that's your favourite word on the no, no. Cut all that. Cut all that.
That's your favourite word on the pod.
Cut all that.
Cut all that.
Cut, cut, cut.
Cut, cut, cut. Just cut.
Cut, cut, cut, cut.
That helipod needs a vasectomy.
Get rid of it all.
Start again.
Oh, here's a song that I can't get out of my head.
Do you want to hear it?
Yeah.
Puss my butt. Puss my butt. Puss my butt, and it's black and white cat.
Good luck for the rest of the day.
That's going to be in your head.
And that's what I sing to the kids all day long.
I guarantee you, you'll text me later.
That'll be in your head.
It's so weird that you signed that song because I was in Yeovil the other night.
Yeah.
And thank you to everyone for coming
I thoroughly enjoyed it
and backstage
they had photos
of all the acts
that have been there
they'd obviously ask them
to sign their poster
and write a little note
and everything
and there was like
you know comics
and blah blah blah
now
bear in mind
no one asked me to sign anything
do you know what I mean
anyway
I fucking walked out
there wasn't a sharpie
to be seen in that place
no one had
usually they hand you a sharpie no one had to be a sharpie to be seen in that place no one had usually they hand you a sharpie
no one had to be a sharpie
on the album
anyway
do you know
they did hand a sharpie to
who signed his poster
for his live tour
Postman Pat
is doing a live
tour
Joanne
don't get ahead of yourself
if you think you're as big
as Postman Pat
forget it
Postman Pat, forget it.
Postman Pat and his cat Jess are on the road doing lives.
So I, and they're signing tits and everything for everyone.
And I was like, what is Postman Pat's live show?
Like he was up, he was up between Alan Carr, Jimmy Carr, Postman Pat's wedged in the centre and I was like I don't know if he's lost work
and he's doing some sort of
magic mic thing, I don't know what's going on
Joanne is violently jealous
of Postman Pat
Basically I'm following in the
venue footsteps of Postman Pat
and they're asking him to sign his poster and they're not asking me to sign
fuck all and I'm sorry now but I've just
I've got questions
Joanne
honestly
you need to step back a bit
if you think honestly
that you're bigger
than Postman Pat
you need to
really rein it in
rein it in
well I mean
I'll tell you what happened
Postman Pat saw
Peppa Pig's
the business
that she's making
he was like
fuck this
I'm getting out
on the road
I'm fascinated to on the road.
I'm fascinated to see Vosman Baths delivering packages to middle-aged women
in Yeovil.
It's definitely, there's definitely
some sort of kink element to it.
Like, I can't.
Everyone's throwing their knickers on stage
and landing on Pat's nose.
Yeah. Pat's nose yeah thank you for listening
