Starting point is 00:00:00 Here we go. Happy Tuesday, darlings, how are you all? Fabulous. I think, I thought it was Friday because we've got a cocktail in front of us. Cocktails are back. We're back. The drinking has returned. Also, the Almond Quassants are back, but they're different today.
Starting point is 00:00:24 Why do they look like feet? Because they're called Bare Claw Alman Quassant. Oh, right. So they actually are meant to look like claws. That does make a lot of sense. Mm-hmm, mm-hmm. So let's kick it off. I've got a pawn star martini from the beverage store.
Starting point is 00:00:40 It's my mom's 60th this weekend, so I don't mind saying this because by the time this podcast goes out, I'll have been and done it. But I'm creating like a 60s-themed bit of party in the Airbnb. So I've got the beverage store to design a label for me, and it says Polly's Porn Star. She'll be loving that. you all love it because my mum's favorite cocktail is a porn star and i thought we would have one today
Starting point is 00:01:05 and zowie's bought the glasses gorgeous no ice geezful and a lovely little small business sent us some cocktail toppers and the note is the cutest thing in the world and as are the cocktail toppers actually i've just realized i've not spoke oh yeah hi zari I'm here, by the way, it's not just Jess. See, when you're on, like, I run. I don't want to be like, yeah. Yeah, you're doing well, yeah. Anyway, carry on.

Starting point is 00:02:19 Our iconic neon yellowy green smiley Would you say? They couldn't be more green Yeah, sorry Is that green? Yeah, is, isn't it? Highlight the penguin. A lot on your plate.
Starting point is 00:02:35 Cobalt creative logo, just yes logo, Quinn Management logo, and even a QR code that goes on to our Spotify and a spit or swallow. So let's do the spot or swallow on. So we'll take a little video
Starting point is 00:02:46 and she'll post it. Anyway, cheers, fuckers. Oh, that is beautiful cocktail. It's not strong at all. It's very vanillay. That's all nice. That is good.
Starting point is 00:03:03 Also, actually, vanilla, you can smell it before you taste it. I think we should just do half and half now. No, but also... Does the topper have a taste? No, let's taste it's... I don't know, actually. But also, drunk on a Wednesday morning. Just what we need.
Starting point is 00:03:18 That's what I love. And then I decided to get us a little pastry, didn't I? From Burnfield Bakery, to a newish place in Southside. I have been before. Remember when I took those cakes and we've got that cream, cheesy, raspberry little cupcake at my house a few weeks ago.
Starting point is 00:03:35 It was from there. Stunning. I can't really drink this because the thing keeps stinking to my lips. I'm going to take a vibe. Let's see if you beat my favourite croissant. What's your verdict? Really good. Not as good as the one before, though.
Starting point is 00:03:49 But really good. No, but I'll be honest, it was a wee bit gooey, the last one for me. Because it was fresh out of the oven, though, that's why. It was a wee bit. Marzapani. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It is a bit like that, isn't it, when it's hot? I don't know if...
Starting point is 00:04:04 Gorgeous. And then I got a pan suezed for G and obviously declined because it's too gooey. Honestly, I refuse to get this man anything ever again. Yeah, that's not almondy enough in there for me. No, see, I prefer that. Okay.
Starting point is 00:04:21 I prefer just a touch of the flavouring. Anyway, that's what's a bit of hot. that's what's a spit or swallow for this week. Well, I have a spit or swallow for you. Gee's got a spill swallowing for us! So, I was away at the weekend and I came back with these
Starting point is 00:04:40 and I thought these will be great for the girls. Aw! So, you need to close your eyes. Close. Gee, I swear, they're chuffle crisps. No, no. No. Then put out your hand and then you're just going to eat it
Starting point is 00:04:54 and you need to chew and then get me here. All right. All right. We've found him to know the pawn star, It's not disgusting, it's not like fish or anything. Okay. It's confectionary choice. Oh. Right.
Starting point is 00:05:07 And G's just come back from Copenhagen. Marlowe. Marlowe. Sweden, be able to Sweden. Oh. Copenhagen. There's one hand. The eyes are closed.
Starting point is 00:05:19 Close, closed. I'm terrified. We need to commit. Get it in. Wait, am I putting this whole thing in right now? Oh. Yeah, get it in. Okay.
Starting point is 00:05:31 How am I it? Jay, what the fuck is that? Jay, what is that? Jay, what is that? Jay, what the fuck is that? It's licorice. Why is it salty? Yeah, well, I feel like I'm tasting like I'm drinking the sea.
Starting point is 00:05:52 Gee, what is that? It's quite possibly the most disgusting thing of it. So you thought you would get it to us? Okay, that is fucking awful. I'm so glad you said that because that is the worst thing I've ever flicked my mouth. So they're called...
Starting point is 00:06:08 Oh my God. We've put that out of me. They're called... I definitely. Flad fish... Frisk salt, liquor. I think it's like salty licorice. But I got caught out like three or four times because they look like
Starting point is 00:06:19 fizzy gummies. Yeah. I kept thinking, oh, they look... Oh, it says salt in massive letters on the frum? I know, but I thought that was my way Swedish for something else. No, that was quite possibly It's actually making me go
Starting point is 00:06:32 It's actually disgusting I feel like I actually like I'm book a shot but I feel like I have done a shot Yeah Like I've got that after like Ugh Okay, it's fucking hard now Thanks Gee
Starting point is 00:06:43 Okay, so Welcome to the best month of the year October, my time to shine sisters The thing is It's okay that it's your time to shine But I do agree that it's the best month of year I love when it comes into autumn. Yeah, I agree.
Starting point is 00:07:00 I like Halloween. I've got my pumpkins out in my house. Mm-hmm. I don't know what it is about October. I don't know if it's because it's my birthday month and I always feel like one year older, but I genuinely feel like my energy is through the roof at the moment.
Starting point is 00:07:15 Honestly. It's the cosmos. It's the... Mercury's in, Lucasaid, whatever you call it. No, but I mean, in general, like, I feel so good and positive and just life's great
Starting point is 00:07:33 I'm excited I've got good people around me I just feel fab and I always feel like that every October I thought about it earlier I thought around this time every year I feel great I also think October people are just
Starting point is 00:07:44 now accepting that summer's over and they're like happier about it with September I think people are like summer's coming on end and it's still a bit sunny but then it's raining new yeah and also Libra's just the best people in the world.
Starting point is 00:08:00 The thing is, I should agree with that considering you are one, Jason's one. A lot of people around me are actually Libra's, but you might be the best people but you're also pains in the fucking asshole. Agree? But the chaoticness keeps you entertained, keeps you busy. Which is true.
Starting point is 00:08:20 If you went out with another Virgo, life would be dull. It would be so dead I'm not actually dull as a person No I'm not saying you're dull That's what I say about Richard He's also kind of satiracy Just a bit routine
Starting point is 00:08:40 Everything needs to be perfect He needs the chaoticness Of a Libra in his life To keep him just doing something different Yeah but what's weird As I'm actually that person in my relationship In terms of like living but Jason's just chaotic as in like his brain
Starting point is 00:08:57 he's like a child like hyper and stuff whereas you bring like the what's the word I'm looking for spontaneous side to your relationship but I would say I do that stuff maybe that's just a female thing then yeah I think it is
Starting point is 00:09:11 or star signs being fuck off no they don't gee they don't I'm a strong believer of them listen I don't sit and rub crystals in that but I still genuinely I genuinely believe in something. Okay, clear.
Starting point is 00:09:28 We're all balls of energy here. And it's also Breast Cancer Awareness Month. We are going to have an amazing episode next week. We've got two wonderful guests coming on on the main and the bonus, and potentially a third guest. But yes, we're very aware that we want to raise awareness for that. It's very important to us to spread some good awareness for everyone to check their tiddies.
Starting point is 00:09:52 I say we've got some great guests coming in. I'm excited for that. Yeah, me too. I feel like I actually do need some education. No, exactly. Same. And I'll be the first one to admit. I don't actually check my boobs that often. It kind of freaks me out.
Starting point is 00:10:07 And I know that's terrible, but it does. Similar to the smear, like it's something that you avoid and it's never that bad. And then, you know, you just touch something and going deep. I just think as well, like we can obviously discuss this more next week. But I just kind of feel like they feel like they feel. quite textured anyway but I suppose like
Starting point is 00:10:28 this is what we can ask one of our guests next week's maybe is like is it so obvious when there's a difference like is it so obvious when it's not just a normal like tissue texture or something and also are there other signs to look out for doesn't this sign to have to be a lump so yeah I think that's important
Starting point is 00:10:45 we'll cover all that next week so we'll maybe even put up a wee by the time this is out actually there might be a wee box or something up for you to ask some questions and stuff yeah perfect and today marks a day i've moved to glasgow seven years ago did you say seven years ago today i feel like i've said seven years ago all year because it's been the year of the seventh year if that makes sense bless you bless me i'm getting unwell but today is the official day what a seven years it's been it's been a roller coaster um so what you've been up to what's been a lot on your plate let's discuss
Starting point is 00:11:20 some food first shall we yeah A lot on my plate physically, we went to Westside Tavern. Gorgeous. In the West End. And I got the vodka pasta. Which I will say, like, it was nice. Like, I don't mind quite a basic pasta dish does the job. But I wasn't wowed by it.
Starting point is 00:11:41 The problem is you've had some really good vodka pastas before. At Lulu. Yeah. And that's pretty unbeaten. So, but I still enjoyed it, yeah, every last bit of it. And then we got a couple of pizzas. What was the one you got? Spice boy.
Starting point is 00:11:54 Spice boy. So good. And that had like, what was it? Like pepperoni. Hot honey. Hot honey. That was nice. Halipinos. Loved it.
Starting point is 00:12:05 Do you like pizza, Jay? Yes. Do you like thin crust or thick crust? You'd love it there then. Thin, crispy bass. And you like cool hip-hop and stuff as well, don't you? Yeah, you'd love it there. It's really cool.
Starting point is 00:12:17 I was like, what's that? No, because it's all like designed to be a, a water is it called a watering hole what's that what they're called in New York and then all on the screen's like the black and white like bigy small and it's really cool in there yeah I think you'd like it yeah it's a really good baby
Starting point is 00:12:31 it's quite hipster though yeah it's like it's quite like edgy or that edgy which I say that and I don't mean that a bad thing I actually love hipster places but sometimes it can just be a bit much in your face isn't it like yeah we get it you wear a really
Starting point is 00:12:44 micro sized beanie hat does not mean that you're any better than me and also apparently they have like singers and stuff on like specific nights during the week I would love that so much yes you know I love a singer you do but anyway that's what's been on
Starting point is 00:13:03 on my plate physically I would say I've not been anywhere else for food to be honest emotionally what I've been up to well I got lip blush so you did she's looking at me as if what's that I mean, where can I see it?
Starting point is 00:13:21 But... She's not got any lipisicon right now, is what she's saying. It's pink, because it's being tattooed on her lips. I see. Right. I got it done yesterday, and actually turns out that the place we recommended on the pod page is right next to the podcast studio. See, it's that building there?
Starting point is 00:13:39 Yeah, is it? Yes. See the one at the end? It's the Block 6 Studios in there. Is it? Mm-hmm. Couldn't believe it. Very handy.
Starting point is 00:13:46 Went there, and... How do you pronounce a business name again? Atrium Atrium Yeah And she's actually starting a wee Like Atrium After Hours podcast Oh so she does all that
Starting point is 00:13:56 Yeah it's cute So anyway I went there and got it done And I will say it was sore Yeah it does kill in it But I kind of enjoyed the feeling You know that way But it kept making me sneeze
Starting point is 00:14:08 Yeah So they put numbing cream on And then it did feel like really numb And then at the start it was fine It kind of just felt like a kind of vibration And then it wears off a little And then see when they go around like the outline or see the wee Cupid's bow bit
Starting point is 00:14:23 Yeah That was so stinging Like so scratchy Yeah But because it's kind of vibrating It kept making me feel like I had to sneeze Same And it was annoying me
Starting point is 00:14:32 Eventually I did get a couple of sneezes out But it was starting to annoy me Because I was like I'm nervous that I don't think it's ever going to come And eventually it does and she's got this thing Like right in my face Well you know when I had my eyebrows my eyebrows Well that's what she said
Starting point is 00:14:44 She said there's two nerves that come down from your eyebrows And I was all blocked up and it makes you sneeze and blocks your nose yeah and I was sounding like I was like been around my cats for a... Because eventually my nose did kind of block but I was actually glad of that because I was like right that's the sneezing problem out the window right but anyway
Starting point is 00:14:59 I went for a kind of in between like browny pink so more of like I know it's quite pink just now because it gets darker before it gets lighter but quite a natural colour but I did get the kind of outline so I know some people don't get the outline to her lips but I wanted that
Starting point is 00:15:15 because I actually do have quite pink lips It's just the outline that can be a bit more faded looking. So, I mean, I'll let everyone know how they are ones to feel because I can't really give you full feedback at the moment because I'm only on the second day. And you get a top of as well, don't you? Yep, so I'm booked back in for a top up in five weeks. Brilliant.
Starting point is 00:15:35 Which then they can, like, add a bit of shape or if you want them darker or anything like that. Which is great. But I'd really recommend, and it's such a nice wee room as well. Yeah. very viably very cool but the only thing is I'm kind of scared to do anything
Starting point is 00:15:51 what do you mean like eat like when I'm drinking I'm like and when I'm eating I'm pure like I'm not letting the food touch my mouth it has to go like past my lap sorry past my lips oh it's fine it will be fine which gave me a wee gel anyway to put on them
Starting point is 00:16:08 and like calm them because they can't they are a wee bit they feel a wee bit tight yes they do I remember when I woke up the next morning and I was like what the fuck Mine were bright red though the next day Yeah, like mine are still quite light I would say But also it makes them swell a wee bit as well So if anyone ever gets that done
Starting point is 00:16:26 Don't be alarmed but also Do I now want that fella like yeah I do Yeah I know they do look juicy juicy the next When you get off the table So that is maybe an issue And I FaceTimed my mum and obviously Jason saw I mean they were both like Whoa you've secretly had filler haven't you
Starting point is 00:16:42 Yeah they both were not convinced that it was just lip blush and also they were both like you can't do lip filler they were like your features are big enough like you couldn't have like bigger lips like it just wouldn't work and I was like I think you're actually right yeah from the side and stuff
Starting point is 00:16:55 nice but I get like the top of my top lip was quite close to my nose yeah and then you wouldn't even much of a gap in between so you're quite strange I think the lip blush will just do the job so we might not need to go down the fill
Starting point is 00:17:06 I've got beautiful lips though yeah I've said that you before anyway that's kind of what I've been up to to be honest I feel like I've really not been doing that much that's like exciting to report back like I've just been kind of kicking about working um I did take all my sping decor down and put my autumn Halloween stuff up if anyone's interested about that shows I was actually going to you know I'm in my TikTok era at the moment I was actually wanting to make a TikTok right
Starting point is 00:17:32 but I got to have carried away and put it all out and now I'm like well I'm not taking it all back to swap it around yeah but maybe you could do that at Christmas yeah maybe um but I do have about three kind of pumpkin ornaments in my living room I've also got a ghost cushion which is very cute it's white and fluffy I also change my blue cushions
Starting point is 00:17:55 to dark green cushions nice autumn winter vibe yeah and then I've got some pumpkins in the hallway and I've got some pumpkins at my front door none of which are real pumpkins are all like pottery type things so I can maybe show you guys some pictures if you would like that
Starting point is 00:18:12 everyone loved it what was it we did last year my wreath your fucking wreath in my hanging oranges's mind didn't you bake them yourself did I fuck don't be stupid
Starting point is 00:18:24 what made me think you did that I got them from Amazon but also I will be doing that again and I actually would like someone in to come and do my wreath you know because that's a big heavy shelf I've got so you could have a proper
Starting point is 00:18:39 like see like jelly gets her fireplace in that decade I would like it to be as chunky as that I felt mine was a bit thin and cheap line but I just don't know if I'm being dramatic like how often are people actually even in your house probably no one will see my autumn decorations No, they won't
Starting point is 00:18:54 Anyway, that's true that I'll be up to. What will be you? What's been on your plate? First of all, physically. Physically, ooh. I Went to London. Oh yeah. I went to an event with Glenmorengy whiskey It was really cool in Shoreditch.
Starting point is 00:19:13 They are bringing out a limited edition Whiskey bottle, which I can share more about on my Instagram in maybe next week. But yeah, it was really cool event. I went down with Rebecca, Gerard, who's one of my best friends.
Starting point is 00:19:25 She's Rebecca Cooks on Instagram. We went down together, and it was basically her birthday that week, so we decided to book a couple of restaurants on our hit list. And we went to a super edgy hipster place, like the edgiest of edgists and ever called fucking.
Starting point is 00:19:41 I don't even know what's called Rochelle's Kitchen or something. Every bit of food that you put on your story was like, I couldn't have told you what it was. It's probably same. So that was really gorgeous. It was like an outside sort of conservatory, if you like. But a secret little hidden door. And the menu was written on brown paper, changed daily.
Starting point is 00:20:01 Right, okay, as edgy. All the stuff were really cool and edgy and relaxed. And it was very seasonal. Gorgeous, may I add. So I definitely recommend if you're, really into your food. It's a proper foody place. And then we went to a restaurant in central called Fallow,
Starting point is 00:20:19 which is known quite, it's quite popular at the moment around like chefs and things in London. It's everyone's favorite restaurant at the moment. It's having its little moment. Right. So Rebecca wanted to go. We'd had great things. A few people that we'd spoke to in the days in the run up to go in had said,
Starting point is 00:20:34 oh my God, you're going to love it there. And we did. We sat at the chef's table so you can literally watch them all working. they were all male, which I found quite bizarre, but there was all male chefs. There was about 15 of them, so the testosterone must have been through the roof. And it was like watching something out of like Gordon Ramsey
Starting point is 00:20:50 Kitchen Nightmares or something. Maybe not Kitchen Nightmares, but you know when everyone's like stressed and so much going on and I was fascinated by it. It was actually amazing to watch. Yeah, like they weren't really, they were still just being how they would be even though people can see.
Starting point is 00:21:04 Yes. And there was one main guy telling them all what to do then his little like side bitch. And then there was a guy doing this. oysters and a guy doing an actual humongous trout head and that was his job just constantly baking this head of a fish and I thought that's a really that's really bad and I felt like he was been it he was not like the cool one. I felt like people were a bit like annoyed with him. That's why he got that job. Oh that's a shame. So we sat there and had an unbelievable it was like small
Starting point is 00:21:33 plate sort of thing. So we had about five dishes and then we had shared this dessert. It was like a caramel tart with sea salt on top and it was actually one of the best desserts I've ever had I can't stop thinking about it um so really enjoyed that I think that was it food wise to be honest sounds very fancy so I definitely recommend that if you want to go somewhere for a nice special dinner go there lovely and what about emotionally oh well two things so there's one thing that really fucked me off and I'm actually messaged you about this in the chat I know and you said that and I can't remember what it is okay So, going to England.
Starting point is 00:22:12 Oh, yes. Yeah. No, I'm annoyed again. Yeah. Why? Do people say to me when I say, oh, I've moved to Glasgow. And they go, oh, shame for you. That.
Starting point is 00:22:24 How do you find that? I'm like, fuck off, you English motherfucker. Like, you have, A, they've never been to Scotland, which... Will, this is the thing. Pisses me off even more. And B, it's far better than this city. And I just get so riled up about it and it's every single English person,
Starting point is 00:22:42 don't get me wrong. There's many that do say, oh, I love Glasgow and they probably went somewhere that we would be like, what the fuck? But I think, for me, I'm just like, why do you slag off Scotland so much? Or why is it like, oh, shame for you. But honestly, it's always been a thing.
Starting point is 00:23:00 And I'm not just categorised in English people, so I do apologise if you're not this kind of person, right? but most of them are. English people think they're better than Scottish people. That is a thing. Why? But not in terms of them personally, in terms of like the place,
Starting point is 00:23:18 like the places you can go, things you can do, things you can see, almost like the culture of it. And I'm like... It's like they live in a little bubble and I actually will agree with everybody else. When English people can't understand Scottish people, I'm like literally open your ears.
Starting point is 00:23:32 I speak in English. You're just being ignorant and rude. I don't understand how it's that difficult to understand the Glasgowian accent I understand the really thick ones like the really super thick Glasgowian actions Yeah you maybe miss a few words But surely you can still piece the sentence together
Starting point is 00:23:48 Sure And I don't know if I'm just saying that because I live here And I understand some words that you use now And I get what it means I get to an English person That has never been, would be like I've never heard that word before What does that mean? Fair enough
Starting point is 00:23:59 No, that is totally fair enough I think it's more when it's like I'll actually like some of our friends who maybe have YouTube or whatever and people comment like... What is she to say? I need subtitling. I can't understand anything you're saying. Yes, you can. Yes, you can. Because do you use the words
Starting point is 00:24:13 like, hello my name is? Yes, you do. You, like, just have patience and take him in it. But, yeah, so that really pisses me off when people are just saying to me like, oh, how do you find that then? What do you fucking mean? I wouldn't say that about anyone
Starting point is 00:24:29 that lives anywhere really because see unless you've been, you don't know whether it's a nice place or not. Exactly. But people just have this thing about Scotland and also it's got one some of the nicest places you could actually ever go. Obviously that's not Glasgow.
Starting point is 00:24:45 But it's like way further up. But then, see, like people say about the rough places, I'm sorry, but England is good places that are even rougher. Rough me, there are some many shitholes where I'm from. Anyway, sorry, you can carry on. But also, like, the highlands of Scotland are some of the best places in the entire world.
Starting point is 00:25:04 I get it. The weather's not great and a lot of people refer to the weather. If I could change anything about this place it would be the weather. So I actually do love living here
Starting point is 00:25:11 like I used to always think I would move away. I would definitely still try it but I think I would always come back. Yeah for sure. And it is that it's just the weather that gets it's down from. And you know what I've noticed
Starting point is 00:25:21 about Scottish people? You guys are so proud especially if you're from Glasgow. You're so proud to be from here and I think if you meet somebody else that Scottish you back them you go on holiday and you all sort of like unite together.
Starting point is 00:25:34 Yeah. With English people, it's very much a, because you could be from Leicester, but you could also be from Liverpool and you would sound very different. Yeah. And maybe me, because I live here, I can now understand the differences
Starting point is 00:25:47 between an Aberdeen accent or someone from the borders or Glasgow or Edinburgh. Yeah. But to other people, probably not so much. Yeah, probably. I also just think, like the saying is so true. People make Glasgow, Yeah, that's where people are the best.
Starting point is 00:26:05 Everyone in the world says Scottish people are so friendly. That is factual information at this point. And you do actually notice it when you go to London and all that. People bang into here, they don't care. No one would ever like, like no one smiles in it. Like there's just nothing like that. Do you want to hear a funny story? Yes, we do.
Starting point is 00:26:22 Because it was the obviously guy who noticed we were Scottish, but we're in a restaurant in Copenhagen. And the Danish server obviously clocked on were Scottish as soon as we spoke. But his English was immaculate. like a perfect American accent and he's like, oh, you're from Scotland the first thing he said to me was can you say purple burglar
Starting point is 00:26:38 or like? No, he never! Purple or that! Obviously he's not on TikTok I know that's so funny. What's the chances of that? That is amazing.
Starting point is 00:26:49 I was like, do you listen to the pod? Oh, I love that. Do you know the only thing that people get wrong about it as well and like it's my papa that actually has moaned about it loads because he's not, like if he was into football
Starting point is 00:27:01 he'd maybe like, watch Mother will a wee bit, right, but he's not into, like, Rangers or Celtic. Yeah. And he says that they used to go cruises all the time, and if anyone ever noticed they were Scottish, like, quite often, like, staff of restaurants or shops or whatever would say, are you Glasgow Rangers? Yeah. And, like, as someone who's so not into that, that is terrible, really, do you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:27:20 True. And I think that's the only thing that, not let Scotland down at all, but there is a huge divide in terms of, like, football. I don't understand it was previously, like, religious. but now it is down to your football team and I do think that is not something you would find so much
Starting point is 00:27:36 unless you're maybe like Man United Man City I don't really know if there's much big rivals in one city alone apart from Vasco I just feel like why if you say to someone you're Scottish
Starting point is 00:27:46 like why is the first thing you think of football? Because it's such a big thing No I do know that and to be fair like deep like a few minutes late in a conversation I'd maybe ask the question to someone as well like I do understand it's a thing
Starting point is 00:27:59 but I think as younger people but I just feel like someone's saying that's like my papa yeah and he's talking about like in probably quite recent years and as you get older a grumpier man he's like that none I'm not into football
Starting point is 00:28:14 I do feel like as well blokes that's all they can really speak about with each other isn't it football I know so even like my dad and Jason that get together I'm like I'm just there's no point of me being here anymore oh you're speaking about it's football like men don't have any sort of deep, intelligent conversations
Starting point is 00:28:31 with each other. Gee, I'm sorry. You're maybe a little bit different, but... Yeah, because you're not anti-football. But you would speak about CrossFit or NFL or something sport-related. Women speak about so much more... My fucking ass.
Starting point is 00:28:49 Better things. This podcast is proof. I'm not having that. It's true. All you talk about is fucking skin care and treatments. and fucking who's doing what on Instagram and all that bullshit, that's your sports.
Starting point is 00:29:04 You're absolutely correct, I can't guess, as me. The Influencer Olympics. Oh gee, that is true. And also, another thing that's been a lot on my plate, the reason I've not had a lot of food at the moment in the past three days is because I haven't had a kitchen to have access to because I've had the system method round. I cannot fucking explain to you how amazing I feel
Starting point is 00:29:27 and my brain feels, life feels, their service was far more better than I ever could have imagined. Yeah, they were actually amazing. I actually can't wait for, you to come around my house and see the finish results. I can't wait to come because I do get quite stressed when I'm over at yours sometimes when I look into that spare room. It is the spare room, isn't it? It was chaotic, I agree.
Starting point is 00:29:46 And I think for me, because, like, I nipped over the other day whilst they were in and I was saying to these girls, like, this is my dream job. Like, I would just love to do this. and naturally like what touch other people's stuff and I was like okay that bit I guess isn't really the glamorous part but I would just love to do that because see if I'm I don't just mean with you
Starting point is 00:30:06 if I'm anywhere in like the room's a bit of a mess I'm like it would just take you two minutes to clean this up and then you would just feel so much better we can't all be as perfect as you though so it doesn't quite wet like that no I know and also that's what I'm saying like you're either that kind of person or you're not and I know it's not like I say just do it but I know that's just not people's priorities it's just not
Starting point is 00:30:25 Also, I think I needed to do a massive declotter. I had 25, maybe not 25. I think it was like 20 bags of charity and rubbish. Oh yeah, yeah, you're a lot. Rubbish. And the good thing about that is they have a charity pick-up person come and people that go to the tip for you. So you don't have to do a single thing.
Starting point is 00:30:40 You're not left with loads of rubbish. Because that's probably another thing that people end up, they do it and then it just kind of falls back into the way it was because they don't take the tape and actually get rid of the stuff. Like completely reset. Yeah. And then they provide a joiner. He came within two hours and I was there.
Starting point is 00:30:55 putting up shelves for me. He was changing a trouser rail that I had from an IKEA packed wardrobe into drawers because they were like that so impractical what you've got currently. You put something else in as well
Starting point is 00:31:04 I can't remember. And yeah, I just thought they were amazing and mind you that there was some stuff they've put on Instagram as well over the next few days where it looks like my house is a complete shit hole but can I just say
Starting point is 00:31:14 that was where we were doing the declutter so people must be thinking she's a right messy cow. No, but that's once like everything's been pulled out today and get put back for me. So it did look,
Starting point is 00:31:24 it did look, pretty like a, like a bummer hit it basically on... No, but it's amazing. And your kitchen, I would quite like that in my kitchen cabinet's actually what you've got. Like, you've got those we, um... I don't feel like you have enough food to do that though, Zoe. You only have spaghetti. And you don't even have crisps.
Starting point is 00:31:43 I actually do have, um, penny pasta and swirly pasta I'll have, you know? Wow. Actually, sorry, back to the no food thing. My cupboard does have spices and stuff in it. and sauces and stuff, like that many? I would say I've got quite a lot of spices. I literally came round to your house right and I made you a salad, an omelet
Starting point is 00:32:03 and I put the spinach in the bottom drawer and there may be some like tomatoes. The next day I came around and said I'll make myself an omelet again. It was in the bin. You fucking put it in the bin. And all it was in your fridge was protein yogurts and milk.
Starting point is 00:32:17 Yeah, you're talking about my fridge. My fridge is different story because I just cannot believe you've been this. I think it was two days later actually No but I bin that because Honestly I don't actually eat spinach myself Right Jason's probably never touched it his life
Starting point is 00:32:34 So that was going to go That was going to have to go in the bin Anyway And the thing is If I was making something that had Say onions and peppers in it right I would buy one fresh pepper Because Jason doesn't eat that
Starting point is 00:32:49 So once I've used that's gone And then onions I use frozen onions because they would just things just go to waste when I buy like fruit well not fruit veg
Starting point is 00:33:00 so I feel like I would love my fridge to be stacked with veg and stuff and I've done it a few times but the problem is it just goes to waste yeah
Starting point is 00:33:08 okay that's quite practical but in my cupboard I could be doing with that spinny thing yeah spinny thing's great you got for like my herbs and spices my herbs
Starting point is 00:33:17 I've also got a spice rack on the back of my door as well that's really cool there's quite a contrast anyway carry on So we diagnosed No, that was great I fucking never dare say that to you again
Starting point is 00:33:36 What the fridge was empty Yes So What I think is also another thing about the girls coming over Is they obviously had to go through all of my drawers No No No
Starting point is 00:33:52 so yeah the lovely box of toys was found and then they went through I was actually out of the house at this point so I came back and they'd finish the spare room
Starting point is 00:34:02 they'll show me the wardrobes they went through obviously go for all your underwear your bras everything what did they find that fucking leather suit with the cheek I was like
Starting point is 00:34:16 did you find anything when you were looking through that and she looked at me she went we say nothing I was like Jesus fuck no so yeah if you're doing it just be prepared that um there is no stone unturned when
Starting point is 00:34:29 they go in that house every single thing about that as well like you've not like have you had that on have i fuck soie well i did expect that answer but that's what i mean so it's funny that like yeah and hopefully they listen to the podcast in season one and they have been it was it season one or season two and they have been aware of this outfit yeah but it's still in the draw in the hope that, I mean, he's mentioned to me a few times that I've still not had it on. You're going to need to get it on one day. Also, do you know what I think the difference is as well, right?
Starting point is 00:35:00 See, because the way I am, see if I was getting someone over to do something like that, I would almost clear out my stuff before they got there. Do you know what I'm like? I'm like, I just forget. I know, but like, even like I would be thinking about that kind of thing. Like, I would be like, I hope there's nothing weird in any of my drawers. And it would then drive me to check them.
Starting point is 00:35:17 And by that point, I've cleared them out. There's nothing for you to do. Can I just say that they were the soundest sisters ever and they were just very much, it was so over the head, like listen, we find some weird shit in people's houses. Oh yeah, they all see... They're not even asked. Yeah, they all see fucking hundreds of weird stuff.
Starting point is 00:35:32 But it was just, I can't believe how amazing my house feels. It's so clean. And just the way they organise things, my brain would never even think to even do it. And they've basically rejigged my whole kitchen. It's not like they've just cleaned out my cupboards. They've rejigged it or made it more accessible and more easy for me to just cook things.
Starting point is 00:35:48 Yeah. They've made my whole pantry room thing, which was just the catheter room at one point, into a, well, it's amazing, isn't it? I showed you the before and afternoon. And see, when you think about it, why was that, like, why did no one think?
Starting point is 00:36:00 To put shillots up? I don't mean, just used. I just mean, like, even when I've been over or done it, and I'm like, you just forget that room even exists because it's just got the cat box, isn't it? And actually there's a good nice room.
Starting point is 00:36:11 Yeah. So I feel like I've got a spare room in my house. So that emotionally, that was it really for me. I blocked out three days for them to come. The first day you have. have to be there for the full D clutter and it just took them until yesterday so today was a free day for them except the podcast I told them I was coming out to do this but yeah gone done you also um had quite an adventurous night on Saturday night no guys I didn't
Starting point is 00:36:35 get into 5.30 in the morning that's just like that's we're getting up at that time message there's three things that I said A I'm not drinking again B I never vaping again and see i was going to drive into town that night oh wait we said that's before the night oh i was saying it all week right okay interesting because after paris i got so pissed on the last day that i thought i'm not drinking again i'm and i basically booked to see casey light's favorite dj in the world and he was at s wbg free and it was such a small event it was a lot smaller than i thought which was even better and he wasn't on until 11 which gave me the fear at the start i was like fuck me i think i've like i pre-drank at my friend's house and i felt like i was a teenager again
Starting point is 00:37:18 But we then went out at night. So we went out late at night, sorry, should I say. And then went straight to SWBG3. And he was on until three. Well, sorry, doors opened at 11. He had somebody come on before him for an hour. And then he was on. That's so late.
Starting point is 00:37:35 Is it not? That's so late. I'm home. And it's not like it's a rave. It was not a rave at all. That's like, Bethlehemes. Yeah. So anyway, I did it.
Starting point is 00:37:44 Drank. I was even vaping in the car before I'd even had a drink. touched my lips and I thought oh no things are going downhill here things are going downhill and then when we came out there's a lot of pod pigs there by the way they all said hello and they were very lovely well I was at a wedding at the same time and Jess was like come here after like it's not even stashed yet blah blah blah which I could not have done because my feet are still covered in blisters like my feet are still aching I can't wear heels and then she was like there's lot of pod pegs here she maybe don't
Starting point is 00:38:17 because certainly would have been fucking died but the girlies were so nice and then anyway this is one thing I want to discuss can we normalise going to strip clubs because I fucking love them
Starting point is 00:38:32 and afterwards I was like I want to go Diamond Dolls so they were like okay so where do you go after and I was like I don't want to go home I don't want to go to an after party I want to go Diamond Dolls So we got in the taxi
Starting point is 00:38:47 It's just you It's the fact you know the name And you're Shane Diamond I was doing like that That's what it is for me And then And then we basically left The SMBG free
Starting point is 00:38:58 You're the casino So I don't want to do that That's boring And then I was like I want to go and see a stripper And then we got there Obviously it was closed I was fuming
Starting point is 00:39:05 But I forgot to say this on the podcast When I was in Paris You know there's a humongous sex scene there Yeah Around like La Pagal Up at the Moulin Rouge. And I was in the street asking every seedy-looking bloke, where's the best strip club in Paris?
Starting point is 00:39:23 Obviously, they're directing me one called, I think it was called the Pink. I think it might have been called Pink Princess. Of course it was. So, I fucking went, didn't I? I was in there until 6 a.m. I had girls up touching my legs trying to get me to have a dance with them.
Starting point is 00:39:41 But I have to admit, when I was in there, me and my friend Heather went in. but two other friends didn't come in because it was like something ridiculous entry and we sat in there and I thought I don't want to dance I just want to watch them
Starting point is 00:39:51 I actually find pole dancing amazing and I remember being really pissed at the time but I could see so many like seedy men around with all these women I thought oh this is hell but obviously me being me I want to dance like not with a stripper
Starting point is 00:40:04 I want to get up and dance so I'm dancing to the music and Heather's encouraging me so I'm like ooh And then even the stripper was trying to get me up on the pole with her. But the owners, you know what they're like? They're like, pimps. They were like, you actually have to sit down.
Starting point is 00:40:20 Like, you can't dance in here. I ended up apparently going kicked out. Because I was dancing so much loving my life. I'm actually sinking further and further into this couch as you keep speaking. Why? So anyway, I'm watching this stripper. I was multiple strippers dancing. They were amazing.
Starting point is 00:40:37 And then these two women come over and I thought, fucking out, here we go. And then she's chatting away. She's like, oh, this is my first time here. we have a lovely conversation about where she's from and I said to her, I was like, oh, that's so sweet. And she was like, Jess, they literally want your money. And at the end, she went, well, if you want,
Starting point is 00:40:53 I can give you like, you and your friend a dance in the back. And I was like, oh, no, no, no. I'm just here for a drink to watch you guys perform. And then she literally got up and fucked off. And she was like, you're so naive. I'm like, yeah, but can't we just normalize girls coming to watch other women dance? I love it.
Starting point is 00:41:10 I don't want to pay you to dance on me. I just want to watch you. that's no what the strippers is. It's no a social club for women. Who says? Who fucking says? It's to suck money out of you guys. Yeah, I know, but there might be women out there that might want to dance.
Starting point is 00:41:23 It wasn't me, but I wanted to watch them. And I was also, I was hyping them up like, yes. They were loving it. But the pimps did not. So is anybody else out there is what my point is. Because when I was younger, me and the girls, we all loved a strip club in Leicester. Like, it's not just me saying this.
Starting point is 00:41:41 My friendship group love a strip club. I honestly don't think about ever being a strip club It's great Zoe No I would like it because I'm quite I would say like what I would like about it Kind of like you that I'm quite nosy It's just a dark CD room I know but I would quite like to like watch
Starting point is 00:41:57 What unfolds in there Do you get what I mean? All you'll say is literally men having a conversation with women Then you see them get walked off to a room No I know but that's what I want to see And then the pattern on the pole is Amazing Do you know how hard pole dancing is
Starting point is 00:42:13 yeah I know people say it's such a great form of exercise yes so to watch it you're like wow and there's a strong had to laugh the word exercise being used and I say in the sense it then involved do you know how strong you have to be to dance on a polljee oh I mm-hmm yeah I bet you do
Starting point is 00:42:29 but you've been to many shriekubs out of you you know you have you guys so yeah that was my point I wanted to speak about this because I thought when I said it in the group chat I thought you guys aren't just not like that but my friends are we'll finish on a quick recommendation then
Starting point is 00:42:47 TV program my mom your dad I don't know why I've not watched it sorry this is so your program I know even the playlist is so you I'll watch it I've got plenty of time with just things on you will you'll be doing your work but you'll be distracted because it's that good someone else was talking about it and seeing how good it was if anyone that doesn't know it's a dating show hosted by Davina McCall and it is for adults and It's not like Love Island. They're all in like a stately home and bombshells come in and they put up six moms, six dads,
Starting point is 00:43:18 but then the twist is the kids watch them from secret cameras and they are the love experts. They think they're going into a house with proper love experts, but it's the children that are deciding who they're partnered up with and who girls on a date. Oh my Lordy Lord. And there's just people that come in. And do they get quite intimate because I wouldn't want to watch my parents do that?
Starting point is 00:43:37 There's one scene where I'm not going to give too much away, but a lot of them have been through a lot of life issues as well like divorces, somebody's wife died, you know, there's lots of things because older people have more life experience, it's more interesting. I bet more deep than love, Aylums, my name? Yeah, and the playlist is all like 80s, 90s. Right, I'll need you watch that. Classics, it's just so good, so wholesome.
Starting point is 00:44:01 I think I cried so much, I was fragile as fuck on Sunday, obviously, so I was just crying consistently. I was like, please stop, but in happy to. It's not sad. Some bits are sad, but it's kind of wholesomey. Yeah, I'll need to watch that. So yeah, that's a good recommendation for you all. A few of you guys messaged me actually when I post it on a story
Starting point is 00:44:18 and said that it was also one of the best things you've watched. So catch up, I think it's ITV. Also, speaking of dating shows, I love. Love is Blind. Have you ever watched it? Yeah, on Netflix. Nothing makes me happier than how dramatic these Americans are. So dramatic.
Starting point is 00:44:36 Like, you've been speaking to a guy through a wall for about three days and you are hysterically crying because he doesn't want to speak to you anymore. But Zambi, don't you think of it though in the sense of let's say you were blind, like an actual blind person? That's the same thing though. No, I know, but I'm talking just like the amount of time it is.
Starting point is 00:44:53 I know it's probably very intense in there, but it's when they start crying and it's like, I just want someone to love me for me. Well, they didn't, so what you're upset about? Yeah. Do you get what I mean? Yeah, yeah. Like, it's always like, love me for me and I'm like, well,
Starting point is 00:45:08 someone will. do you know what that is G is why they actually like date between a glass of a wall they can't see each other and end and then they end up getting married so before if you continue with the experiment which then you would go on like a honeymoon and you actually do get married at the end of it you ask someone to like the guy asked the girl to marry them and then they come out of two doors in this like studio and they want up to each other and they walked each other and that's the first they see each other
Starting point is 00:45:32 but they've already proposed they're already engaged and they're a kiss and it's like but it's not as bad as married at first sight. That's chaotic. I fell away from that. It was too much. Yeah, it's too much. Anyway.
Starting point is 00:45:45 We can just go on forever. Right, well, thanks for joining us and our little catch-up, I feel, it was. And we'll see you on Freaky Friday. See you on Freaky Friday. Bye.
