Starting point is 00:00:00 This is a Global Player Original Podcast. Hello and welcome to My Therapist Ghosted Me with me, Joanne McNally and herself, Vogue Williams How was your week Joanne? Let's start with you I'm kind of I opened my eyes 37 seconds ago That's good Well as I said
Starting point is 00:00:41 you look great in the sunglasses really have added to your look And this just for the record this is not a hangover or a bender I'm just tired
Starting point is 00:00:50 that's it got in from London very late last night I had one Negroni two bags of pop chips I went straight to bed FYI I want to know how many space jeans you had
Starting point is 00:00:58 don't lie to me oh well that's a great question Vogue and I didn't want to get into it but I'd known do you know why British Airways don't serve them
Starting point is 00:01:05 on a short haul flight I was disgusted I don't know why I keep forgetting it because I'm filming this show at the moment so the production company booked the flights
Starting point is 00:01:12 I wouldn't have fucking booked them Aer Lingus would have had space jets and they always have ice pouring out the engines Aer Lingus that's why they can't fly
Starting point is 00:01:21 as high as other planes because they're way down with the jet that's why they fly with Aer Lingus oh my god I can't imagine your face that's like if they didn't fly as high as other planes because they're way down with the jet that's why they fly with it oh my god I can't imagine your face that's like if they didn't have tea on the plane for me
Starting point is 00:01:29 I'd be raging it's like if they don't it's like they might as well not have seatbelts what's the fucking point of this plane oh my god it's not safe
Starting point is 00:01:35 that's so great because British Airways do this thing where they have like eight business class seats up the top and they pull a little curtain and I guess they just charge those people so much
Starting point is 00:01:44 and they get free booze. That they get the booze. There's none left. They don't care about us and there's nothing worse when you see the trolley speeding down the aisle because you know
Starting point is 00:01:52 they're not actually dealing with actual sales. They're just handing out free water and pretzels and I saw that happening and because it was a late night flight I'd always have a space to get on a late night flight.
Starting point is 00:01:59 Or an early morning flight let's be honest. Well I'd have a mimosa on an early morning flight. And then and I see her powering down and she's just handing out the free water. And I was, also I was in the middle seat, which you know yourself now. Oh no. And I was, I just looked, I said, have you no business?
Starting point is 00:02:15 She goes, not in this one now. Oh, that's awful. Do you know what I mean? Get out of here! The business flights in BA, they're not really like a business seat. They're just the same seat, but they've got like a little table in the middle seat. So there's only two seats. So they're not actually any bigger. But you know, when you're walking down, like when we fly, like I'd never fly business with the kids. But anyway, when we're walking down to your seat and you're trying not to make eye contact with
Starting point is 00:02:38 people in the business seat, you're like, I hate you. I'm trying not to show my jealousy. Please, can I sit there she keeps getting into our bed at night it is honestly I thought it was cute the first couple of nights but she was like
Starting point is 00:02:56 you know when someone kicks you with a heel she was kicking me with her heel in my back last night like a heel like just her foot heel just her foot heel I used to be awoken by Spencer with something else in my back and now I'm woken up with a heel in my back last night. Like a heeled, like just her foot heel or was she wearing a little shoes? I used to be awoken
Starting point is 00:03:05 by Spencer with something else on my back and now I'm woken up with a heel in my back and it's not great. I would take a heel on my back
Starting point is 00:03:11 every day of the week. Do you know what? No, I've actually, as much talk as, we always talk about not wanting to have sex and I think it's high time I told you
Starting point is 00:03:19 I've had sex twice in three days. Can you fucking believe it? Now I did try and get out of it last night. I'm sorry that happened to you. I'm sorry you had to go through that. I've had sex twice in three days. Can you fucking believe it? Now, I did try and get out of it last night. I'm sorry that happened to you. I'm sorry I had to go through that.
Starting point is 00:03:31 I was walking by and he was like, oh, darling, your pajamas are so sexy. They're not sexy at all, by the way. And I was like, we only had sex the other night. Like, no way. And then I actually was like, do you know what? Fuck it. Might as well. I think, do you know what it is?
Starting point is 00:03:44 I think you get so used to saying no no no no no no
Starting point is 00:03:52 no that actually you forget that you actually want the ride as well you're like you're just so used to saying no that sometimes you
Starting point is 00:03:59 cut off your nose to spite your face no sorry I can't and then you're just pulling away yourself a half an hour later I did all the proper solid in Killarney
Starting point is 00:04:07 and you did more than once did I do more than once well I did it he was like we were getting ready to go but we had like he's like oh we've got about
Starting point is 00:04:15 you know and he's like so how long is the drive oh we've got about 20 minutes no actually it was less than that he's like oh we've got about 15 minutes and I could see him and I was like
Starting point is 00:04:21 fuck's sake he's like go on go on I was like alright go on go on go go on go on I was like alright go on go on go on go on and he was like
Starting point is 00:04:27 after he was like thanks a million you're a real sound I was like you're brand new what's up with it thanks a million get into the car
Starting point is 00:04:32 take the suitcases down Spenny does this thing and it's like it puts me off because he starts from the morning and he's like he's talking about
Starting point is 00:04:40 having sex by the evening and I'm like you've mentioned it seven or eight times today and then after it the next day he'll be like now wasn't that great wasn't that great didn't we have a great time I'm like you've mentioned it seven or eight times today and then after it the next day he'll be like now wasn't that great
Starting point is 00:04:46 wasn't that great didn't we have a great time I'm like do we have to talk about having a great time like I don't want to talk yeah let it go
Starting point is 00:04:52 it happened and now it's over like stop trying to reminisce oh Christ so I had a shoot for Bear this week Bear by Vogue goes to 20
Starting point is 00:05:04 when is this tan discontinuing I don't know So I had a shoot for Bear this week. Bear by Vogue goes to 20. When is this tan discontinuing? I don't know if I can listen to it anymore. How long is this going to go on? I hate to tell you. What's the plan here? But it is just going up and up and up. It's the best tan on the market, right? It is, unfortunately.
Starting point is 00:05:18 I can't deny that. I can't. I'm wearing it now, actually. You do look glorious she did it all herself by the way I think you look fabulous in that pink jumpsuit
Starting point is 00:05:29 don't you I do actually now I do well no sorry she was saying she thought she looked like a clown
Starting point is 00:05:35 and I thought I think you look and then I was scared to wear it because I thought I would be clowny but it's not clowny no you see
Starting point is 00:05:41 the first time I wore it it's what's the name of the dress? Paulita. Paulita. And it's this gorgeous kind of striped, kind of circus-y vibe.
Starting point is 00:05:51 It's like a circus tent. Jumpsuit that Vogue wore on the late, late. And I tried it on one day and Vogue came down and said, get that off you and wear it on the late, late.
Starting point is 00:05:58 Now, it was no harm to get it off me because I, even Amber, Amber just, I just put it on and walked out into the city and Amber just burst out laughing, which is not the reaction you want. And it does, I guess because of my job and all, it's maybe a bit
Starting point is 00:06:12 too on the nose. It's too circusy. And also because you're so tall and slim and like, you're like a little race dog or what do we call you? A whippet. I'm like one of the whippet dogs or no, a greyhound. A greyhound. Now what's the dog with the long blonde hair the dog with the long hair I love that dog I forget what it's called what's the dog again an Afghan hound
Starting point is 00:06:30 but can I also say I'm a bit like I'm like a long haired sausage dog too because I've got such a long body I'm mainly body these little legs
Starting point is 00:06:41 and the tiny little legs yeah the stumps hanging out the back of you. Because you look like an Afghan hound, you can wear that kind of stuff where it's, I, and I'm not stumpy, but compared to you I am, because you're six foot twelve.
Starting point is 00:06:57 Anyway, I'm wearing the jump seat and like it's not, it's not the way you'd want to wear a jump seat like that because I have to wear thermals underneath because I'm filming this show and a lot of it's done outdoors like it's not it's not the way you'd want to wear a jumpsuit like that because I have to wear thermals underneath because I'm filming this show and a lot of it's done outdoors and it's so cold
Starting point is 00:07:09 and it's freezing it's snowing and stuff but yeah I really like it I'm just committing to it now it's on I'm going to wear it for the show
Starting point is 00:07:17 watch this now I will never be allowed to wear that jumpsuit again people will constantly troll me about it whenever I wear it because it will now be Joanne's jumpsuit
Starting point is 00:07:24 okay I wore it first only because I had to tear it off her back I know you did find me wearing I was kind of like trying it on downstairs in the basement I was like get that off me now I'm really I'm very sharing with all my stuff but I saw that I was like get it off get it off you are in fairness but I think I look like, get it off, get it off. You are, and fair enough. But I think, this is what I love about modern life. Sharing clothes, reusing, recycling, passing around, even something like that. It's such a distinctive jumpsuit.
Starting point is 00:07:54 Like back in the day, people were like, oh, Scarlet Fee, you're wearing the same thing. You cheap bitch, you're wearing the same thing as Vogue were in the late 80s. Not anymore.
Starting point is 00:08:02 Now we're applauded. Now I'm applauded. Oh, everyone loves it. I'm a type bitch. But I love going through other people's clothes as well. If anyone's thrown out a bag of clothes,
Starting point is 00:08:09 I'd have to have a little sniff to it. I have to have a sniff. And I also think I am weirdly self-conscious. Not weirdly, because it's just the times we live in.
Starting point is 00:08:18 I do get guilt about buying clothes. I do get a bit of guilt. So it's nice sharing around and borrowing and all that jazz. So anyway I was at
Starting point is 00:08:27 I was at my shoot for Bear and we were in this house right so you oh was that a burp? Did I burp? Anyway I should know if I burped.
Starting point is 00:08:37 I think you should. You don't. I mean that many staff around you don't even have to know if you burp anymore someone else tells you. Oh here we go. That was a cough
Starting point is 00:08:48 just in case you didn't know what happened there too. Thank you. But I was in this age where people rent that. You're wetting yourself out there's some urine coming down your leg there.
Starting point is 00:08:57 Can someone wipe that up for her? A little wee wee. I tell you what I think I need to start getting that chair back to be honest with you. I've been doing a lot of jumping around lately on our tour and I think I need to start getting that chair back to be honest with you. I've been doing a lot of jumping around lately
Starting point is 00:09:06 on our tour and I think I need to get the chair back in my house. I need to be buzzed back. You're not alone. I need to get myself in that chair as well. I think we have to
Starting point is 00:09:15 get it back on there. And like, I say that, we talk, again, you're entitled to have no pelvic floor. You've had 12 kids.
Starting point is 00:09:22 I've had zero kids. I know, but all women have to constantly work out their pelvic floor and I haven't 12 kids. I've had zero kids. I know, but all women have to constantly work out their pelvic floor. And I haven't been doing it because I had to rely on the chair. And now I need to go back for more buzzing because it's not great when you're jumped around on stage and you
Starting point is 00:09:34 feel like you wet your pants. Oh my God, I can't be able to work out my pelvic floor now as well as everything else. It's exhausting. Anyway, the house that I was in, right? So people rent out their houses. Quite a good idea. So they rent it out for like the day for a shoot.
Starting point is 00:09:49 Yeah, yeah, yeah. And some of them get like two grand for the day. So they just have to leave their house from seven to seven. And then when they get back, everything has to be put back in place and it all has to be spotless. And they might get two grand. This house that we went into,
Starting point is 00:10:00 they had a baby zebra, a stuffed baby zebra. Oh yeah, okay. Stuffed is the important bit stuffed stuff another stuffed flamingo these things like I'm glad I didn't get one they seem to be everywhere
Starting point is 00:10:10 and yeah would have been nice to have one here how common yeah huge stuffed flamingo god how embarrassing
Starting point is 00:10:20 and and they had an ostrich have you ever seen an ostrich? Were these? Yeah. Hello. You're talking to Dr. Doolittle over here. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:30 Queen of safaris. They are frightening. An ostrich is one of the most frightening animals I've ever seen. And they're not a looker. They're like, they're kind of gobbledy looking. Yeah. They're not the ugliest of animals because I read a book. Huh?
Starting point is 00:10:43 Huh? I read a book called. huh? I read a book called oh sorry I read a book called The Ugly Five and it like
Starting point is 00:10:52 are you still reading children's literature and passing it off as adults? what is going on here? I have to say I was reading I was reading a book by Colleen Hoover
Starting point is 00:11:01 because you know that I like to take a break I read a book in between a Colleen Hoover and I was reading her last book and I thought this really is for a 14 year old. Like, I mean, I read it in two days, but it was still for a 14 year old.
Starting point is 00:11:10 But you know what? It actually doesn't matter because young adult fiction is a huge seller and that's all the stuff that gets made into films. So like, you're on the right path. And also anything that gets you turning a page, anything that gets you turning a page. Do you want the book?
Starting point is 00:11:23 I haven't read anything in ages. I am, when I say crawling through the Adam, Adam McKay, Adam McKay book. Are you only reading that now?
Starting point is 00:11:32 I'm still reading it now. So I read the first one last year, the one that you're reading now. I love it so much. What's it called? This is Gonna Hurt. This is Gonna Hurt,
Starting point is 00:11:40 which is really, really good. It is like, I'm, within the first two pages I was bursting out laughing and Sven was like you can't be laughing at that book already
Starting point is 00:11:49 it's so funny yeah it's really really funny kind of scary about Doctors though yeah I know I feel like I could be a Doctor it's a great book I think anyone can
Starting point is 00:12:01 I'm joking I hope Adam hears that he is so he's so funny though but like I think anyone can I'm joking I hope Adam hears that Jesus This clam can do it Anyone can do it He's so funny though But like He had to work Like he was doing
Starting point is 00:12:11 97 hour a week So doctors Young doctors are doing Like 100 hours a week It is Absolute madness And they are not Getting paid enough
Starting point is 00:12:19 It is crazy When you think As a patient You're like You kind of want to think That your doctor is Well rested And not firing on Red Bull and Skittles do you know what I mean? He did say
Starting point is 00:12:29 he said the book is like a love letter to the NHS. Well I think yeah like like serious respect respect for anyone working in the NHS or as a doctor a nurse anything it's absolutely it gives you an understanding like if I had an operation now and they took off the wrong arm be like listen I know you're under a lot of pressure don't worry about it. It's okay. Don't worry. It's okay. Joanne I think those sunglasses
Starting point is 00:12:53 were a really good investment even if you only got to wear them for today. Imo I have my hobby is losing sunglasses. It's like it's my thing. Only expensive things really is what you'd like to lose.
Starting point is 00:13:03 You don't remember the cheap shit that you lose really. It's the cheap shit that you lose really it's the expensive shit that you lose that you like get so angry with yourself about because you're like
Starting point is 00:13:10 I can't believe I spent that much money on a pair of fucking sunglasses and I left them in the toilet in Nairobi
Starting point is 00:13:15 speaking of books speaking of books because you got me onto that book I read a book my last book was called Circe. I don't know if anyone's read it. Have you read it?
Starting point is 00:13:27 Oh, Emma pretending she's reading again. Me and Emma had a book club for five minutes. She didn't even finish one book and I'd done all three. What a loser. We're always, we're always threatening this book. How do you, like, I don't even, I don't understand how you do it. Have you cloned yourself or something? Okay, I'm not, this is not me bigging myself up, right?
Starting point is 00:13:43 But I did a TV show in Ireland years ago about the Leaving Cert. And I had to go and this man was going to teach me how to speed read. And then I went to go and meet him. And then he told me, you're already speed reading. So I speed read. And I didn't know I did it. So it's not a skill I've actually mastered. It's just the way I read. So that's how I get through. Really? So what is speed reading? Talk me through this super power. I don't know. I think you skip words or something, but you can still form the whole sentences.
Starting point is 00:14:08 So you don't need to read every word to get it. So I just kind of. I got you. So it's kind of like you're getting the tone of something rather than the detail. Yeah, I'm picking up the balance of it. Are you just reading the back? I just Googled the end.
Starting point is 00:14:24 Quick synopsis going on to the next one Thank you When Spenny started reading he was like oh I've read that book I've read that book he was listening to this
Starting point is 00:14:33 eight minute thing I think there's an app that you can read a book in eight minutes and I'm like you're not fucking reading the book Spencer Yeah
Starting point is 00:14:39 There's a difference between I think some books are useful because it depends what kind of books you're reading fiction I feel it's important to between I think some books are useful because it depends what kind of books you're reading fiction I feel it's important to like read whereas
Starting point is 00:14:48 some books that are teaching you they're kind of like if you're into that kind of self-help or business or CEO or how to make
Starting point is 00:14:55 a billion squid yeah the kind of synopsis of the book is probably quite useful like the you know PowerPoint the breakdown
Starting point is 00:15:01 no but it's yeah exactly it's I just wish I could read like more history books. But Circe was kind of a history book. So what is it? Talk me through it. So it's a mythological book. I bought her an X book too
Starting point is 00:15:12 and people said that that one's even better. So I think her name's Madeleine Miller, the author. So it's about this, she's like a Greek god's daughter and it's all about all the Greek gods and everything. And then I was fascinated and I actually found myself starting to believe in the Greek Gods. Like I'm actually pretty sure Zeus was
Starting point is 00:15:30 like a real thing. Really? Well I'm not surprised. You're quite religious. It's not that I'm religious. So Zeus, well he would still be alive now if he was a Greek God because they never ever age and they never die. They never die.
Starting point is 00:15:45 I want to be one. But can you imagine back in the day how confusing it must have been without science? You're like, why are we alive? And that's all like the moon or the sun. They're like, well, that's obviously why we're alive. Those big kind of biscuits up in the sky are the reason we're alive. Anyway, go on, tell us about the book.
Starting point is 00:15:59 So yeah, it's about Greek Gogs and stuff like that. But it got me, I had to start looking up. I pulled a Joanne because Joanne loves history so this is obviously ancient Greek mythology facts so I wouldn't take it for facts
Starting point is 00:16:11 because you have to believe tell the ancient Greek facts very rude so so here are you saying that Greek mythology
Starting point is 00:16:19 is fake news is that what you're trying to say here I honestly I want to believe in the gods so bad because if I find a god I'm going to, like Athena.
Starting point is 00:16:26 Athena was a very frightening god. Anyway, you have to read the book. If you haven't read the book, it will take you a while to get into because it does sound so ridiculous at the start. Are you finished it? Can I take it on Saturday when I'm over? I'm finished it, but I've left it in Ireland. Do you want me to order you one on Amazon?
Starting point is 00:16:40 It's so good. I'll order you one on Amazon. I'd love that, Vogue. Yes, please. So, idiot. The word idiot can be traced back to ancient Greece. it's so good I'll order you one on Amazon I'd love that Vogue yes please so idiot the word idiot can be traced traced back to ancient Greece
Starting point is 00:16:47 although it's a different meaning so it actually referred to someone who did not take part in politics or public affairs I'd like to be an idiot I think we already are
Starting point is 00:16:57 yeah we are are not do not all words have a Greek origin is that not where the I think they
Starting point is 00:17:04 I think I think the Greeks, they really had everything, didn't they? The Greeks and Romans kind of started the whole ball rolling, really. You know, I did Greek and Roman civilization studies in university. Shut up!
Starting point is 00:17:16 Yeah, I did it in my first year. I couldn't tell you a thing. It was one of those subjects everyone did in their first year and then just dropped it. But yeah, I did it. It's so... But you know what? I would do a course like that. I swear to God. It was one of those subjects everyone did in their first year and then just dropped it. But yeah, I did it. It's so, but you know what?
Starting point is 00:17:26 I would do a course like that. I swear to God. It is interesting. It's so interesting. Now this one's a bit depressing. Infanticide was common in Sparta. The most fierce and well-known warriors
Starting point is 00:17:36 in Greece had some ruthless rules. Every newborn was to be inspected and if any physical defects were found, the baby would be abandoned and left to die
Starting point is 00:17:45 wasn't Moses putting a basket and throwing it down a river weren't they mad for it yeah was that Moses yeah hold on
Starting point is 00:17:52 Moses isn't Greek and Roman I know Moses isn't Greek and Roman he's got something to do with Jesus sorry sorry I'm getting way late there now
Starting point is 00:18:00 Moses I thought Moses was on wasn't Moses in the Egyptians? You know where Jesus was? Bethlehem. If you want any history facts, Joanne and I are going to be running a course. Moses ran a B&B in Bethlehem. I'm pretty sure that was the deal there.
Starting point is 00:18:19 Judas had an Airbnb at the Wailing Wall. That's what I know. Judas. I actually found myself singing the animals went into I do because my kids were listening to something yesterday I was singing that yesterday
Starting point is 00:18:31 and I thought of you fondly Joan of Arc Ancient Greeks used stones as toilet paper that's crazy not their smartest move like
Starting point is 00:18:42 use a leaf or grass but I suppose if, not to get too graphic now, but if things are hard, if things are a bit rusty down there. You wouldn't need a stone. I would rub myself along a piece of grass
Starting point is 00:18:55 like a cat does, you know, and they've got worms. That's how I would have done it. Indeed. What a great visual. Because I remember back in the day they used to use stones to clean their teeth they used to use like
Starting point is 00:19:06 grit and pebbles and stuff oh also you won't like this one hubris for mortals to get drunk it was considered hubris for mortals to get drunk
Starting point is 00:19:14 so you weren't allowed to get drunk if you were immortal so you would be immortal but I would have married Zeus by then so I would have been allowed to get drunk
Starting point is 00:19:21 yeah you'd be up we'd be up in the clouds getting locked no I never said you were going to marry Zeus I said I was going to marry Zeus if I was drinking I was like
Starting point is 00:19:29 God no Godess that's who you want to be you want to work towards being one of them anyway I've probably ruined it for people but it's actually
Starting point is 00:19:36 way more interesting than some of the stuff that I've just said I want to be your one with snakes for hair do you remember her Medusa yeah
Starting point is 00:19:42 and if you looked at her you'd turn to stone do you remember all that Jazz very like Candyman isn't it Candyman has ripped off Greek mythology
Starting point is 00:19:51 yeah but I'd love a book like that about the Greeks and they don't age the gods don't age and they look golden and when they look at you it just glows golden
Starting point is 00:20:02 and everyone knows yellow light is fantastic on skin they're basically the Jasper Housewives. Yeah. They're amazing. Or Housewives of Beverly Hills. Everybody, just so you know,
Starting point is 00:20:17 there are still some tickets left for our SSE Arena in Belfast and there are currently only 300 tickets left for our fourth three arena. So get in there like swimwear.
Starting point is 00:20:35 Speaking of bit of hocus pocus. I don't know if you've noticed but there's a giant full moon at the moment. Yeah, I have noticed actually, yeah. And
Starting point is 00:20:43 I was Liv Davey was doing my makeup the last couple of days she is kind of bougie and a bit woo woo and
Starting point is 00:20:52 she's into homeopathy and stuff and I was because I was telling her about my crusty eyes remember when my eyes were starting what's homeopathy
Starting point is 00:20:59 basically natural remedies oh yeah okay okay and I was telling her about my crusty eyes and straight away she goes, oh yeah, crusty eyes, that's the liver.
Starting point is 00:21:08 Oh, well there you go. That wouldn't be too far off. And I was like, whoo! Anyway, we got chatting and I was talking about the full moon and she was like,
Starting point is 00:21:16 yeah, no, it's, I was like, do you believe, and this would be classic Liv now, I was like, do you believe that the full moon has an impact on your mind,
Starting point is 00:21:26 actions, menstrual cycles? She goes, absolutely. We're all water and moon affects the tides and everything. And I know that people say that because we're basically cucumbers because we're made up of water. We're like 90% water, yeah. So the moon's pull on the tides would affect our bodies for sure. Water balloons with eyes is basically what humans are so I but I googled it and there is there's not an ounce of data
Starting point is 00:21:46 to say that the moon has any impact on our minds or like the full lunar lunacy all that stuff that it's just kind of methodical
Starting point is 00:21:53 have you ever have you ever got pissed on a full moon it definitely affects you but I posted on insta saying like there's not like full moon it doesn't have an impact
Starting point is 00:22:00 on your brain wow I think it's the most controversial thing I've ever posted has John finally got cancelled? It's cancelled. To say?
Starting point is 00:22:08 I might as well have said Zara had gone into liquidation. Fucking women were kicking off. What are you on about? I'm a nurse in a psychiatric ward and they're all absolutely mad
Starting point is 00:22:19 on full moon nights. Oh, stop. We have to get extra staff. All this shit. I was like, girls, I don't know what to tell you. This is what the study, it was in Reader's Digest. Oh, stop. We had to get extra staff, all this shit. I was like, girls, I don't know what to tell you. This is what the study, it was in Reader's Digest.
Starting point is 00:22:28 I don't trust them. I don't know. Like, I just, I just don't think that the moon cannot have an effect on a human when our bodies
Starting point is 00:22:35 are so made up of water. But if the moon, if the moon had an impact on your body, you'd be taken out to sea. Do you know what I mean? I do feel a gravitational pull towards the sea during the full moon. Okay, Ariel. What I will say to you is, honestly, think about like, I remember even like going back
Starting point is 00:22:55 10 years when I'd be like, whenever we knew a full moon was coming up, we'd be like, oh, we have to go on the piss because we'd end up just getting blackout drunk. Now, I don't know if it was the moon or just that we knew we were going out to get blackout drunk, but we all thought it was the moon. It's like, ah, you know why you were so fucked last night? Full moon, full moon. Yeah, no, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:23:11 I think that came from, again, back in the day when people thought the moon was some sort of god that when it's at its fullest, you're like, oh God, like it's fully looking down at us now so there's going to be more of an impact
Starting point is 00:23:26 but there's nothing to say there's absolutely nothing and they've done studies on it and there's absolutely nothing to say the moon has an impact on your behaviour or menstrual cycles or whatever
Starting point is 00:23:35 but I won't be saying that again I've gone back on my word now so don't get cancelled she's very moony now girls I'm big into the moon now big into the moon menstrual cycle loved the moon I'll be out into the moon now big into the moon love the moon
Starting point is 00:23:46 I'll be out in the garden now she was doing a sound bath this morning while she was grounding herself on the ground looking at the moon they said the only thing the only
Starting point is 00:23:54 the only thing they they can prove is that criminality goes up like a tiny amount on full moons which they think is due to the
Starting point is 00:24:03 the longer bit of daylight light in the day. Yeah, that's the only thing. That there's nothing else. Have you ever been to a full moon party? Yeah. Oh, I mean, a full moon party. They are so much crack.
Starting point is 00:24:17 But I mean, I'm pretty sure that lunacy has to do with the mushroom omelettes. Yeah, exactly. I wouldn't blame it. I mean, if you're looking around the house for a full moon party, it's nothing to do with the moon. I mushroom omelettes. Yeah, exactly. I wouldn't blame it. I mean, if you're licking your own face at the full moon party, it's nothing to do with the moon.
Starting point is 00:24:27 I went to the one in Copenhagen and there's these buckets, right, that you get. So it's this Thai whiskey and then you get those little tiny bottles of the syrupy Red Bull. So it's full of shite. And then you have a can of 7-Up
Starting point is 00:24:41 and you put it all into this one bucket. One bucket down and you will be absolutely wild. I remember I went and I was with an ex at the time and we went, so we were eating pizza before we went out
Starting point is 00:24:51 and we went out and we went to the full moon, had like a couple of buckets, absolutely wild. Went home, started eating the pizza as you would. Did I tell you this story ever? I don't think so.
Starting point is 00:25:01 So I started eating all the pizza and I think I was like on my third slice in and I just looked down the pizza was crawling with ants and I hadn't noticed.
Starting point is 00:25:11 So we had eaten like billions of ants on this pizza because we hadn't noticed because we were just so fucked we were like
Starting point is 00:25:18 shoving it into our oh god I hate it. And I've seen an ant's face have you seen an ant's face? No. You'll die. Go Google Emma tell me about this've seen an aunt's face. Have you seen an aunt's face? No. She'll die. Go Google it.
Starting point is 00:25:27 Emma, tell me about this. Please Google an aunt's face right now. Oh my God. Emma has one saved in her phone. Is it terrifying? It is terrifying. Like you'll never want an aunt to crawl on you again. Horrifying close-up photo of an ant is the stuff of nightmares
Starting point is 00:25:45 oh my god it's 9.43am can I handle this oh my god oh my god how bad is that it's like a monster oh my god
Starting point is 00:25:59 I know and you know I once heard a story that's probably bullshit this man fell into an ant pit in like Chile or something and got eaten alive by all the ants like I would not want to be
Starting point is 00:26:09 eaten by an ant I don't know dude I mean I mean that could be made up but still I read it somewhere that's horrific that's disgusting
Starting point is 00:26:18 they're the ugliest thing I've ever seen we don't like to judge the way people look but like ants go look for yourself they are really frightening they need I don't even know judge the way people look, but like ants, go look for yourself. They are really frightening. They need, I don't even know,
Starting point is 00:26:28 like one male in the lips for sure, straight away. Some under eye filler. I don't think there's not much that can be done for them. There's nothing you can do. Disgusting. Look at this. I know. Isn't it shocking?
Starting point is 00:26:42 I couldn't stop looking at them for ages after that. I thought I was having a bad day we wouldn't know because half your face is covered by sunglasses yeah thank god I'm just not I'm not in the mood
Starting point is 00:26:54 I'm not in the mood to be seen oh look it's snowing. There's a lot. Oh look, a cat. Christmas. Oh look, there's some rubbish blowing in the wind. It's currently more interesting than what I'm talking about. Come here to me
Starting point is 00:27:26 so I was invited to Jamie and Sophie's wedding right and Louisa messed up my diary she won't be happy hearing this
Starting point is 00:27:34 said out loud but it's true she messed up my diary to know I can't go to the wedding the one time I swear to God it was the one time I wanted to go
Starting point is 00:27:42 I can't believe you're throwing Louisa under the bus because you don't want to go to the wedding this is Joanne we are in Newcast't want to go to the wedding this is Joanne we are in Newcastle on the day of the wedding
Starting point is 00:27:48 doing a tour so I can't go and guess where it was it's right where my mum lives so I could have just gone spent a few days with my mum I know anyway I can't go
Starting point is 00:27:56 but it got me thinking of weddings because we were talking about it last week I'm glad you're going again never gets old for us, was I? Just saying, Emma and Joanne, if you would like to save the 26th of June next year in your diary.
Starting point is 00:28:13 I got you. So Joanne told a story about a girl who ended up scoring her cousin at a wedding. Yes. And we started getting talking about weddings, but I read somewhere this woman, oh great, here's a headline. A woman left confused after sleeping with her cousin at a family wedding. So she said that they had some sort of sexual tension
Starting point is 00:28:33 since she was 16 and she doesn't see that much side of their family anymore because her dad died. And then they went for it and she slept with her cousin. Her first cousin. Listen, it's not easy to meet someone
Starting point is 00:28:45 that you've chemistry with Joanne you just like I my cousins are grey crack and all that but I'm not going to sleep
Starting point is 00:28:52 with any of them don't worry if any of my cousins are listening they're all just turned it off now they're like
Starting point is 00:28:59 there's no fucking point listening to this shit anymore we were only doing it trying to get into our pants but someone actually did they wrote their cousin at a wedding but weddings are funny
Starting point is 00:29:08 I wanted to go to that one did I ever tell you about that time that I was put at a pregnant people table at a wedding were you pregnant
Starting point is 00:29:16 I mean I was pregnant but that doesn't mean I want to be at the pregnant people table that is so funny so you were just all kind of boxed in together just stuck together
Starting point is 00:29:24 I didn't know any of them and Spenny was still drinking at the time so he was nowhere to be seen he was just like off the table the whole time I was just kind of
Starting point is 00:29:31 stuck there talking about prego stuff with people I didn't know when you're pregnant you don't want to talk about prego stuff I nearly had to start drinking myself
Starting point is 00:29:38 that is kind of brilliant though it's like and all of you kind of sober boring people yeah sober, boring people. Yeah. Sober cervix people.
Starting point is 00:29:48 The sober cervix. People with a full womb. This way, please. And you've got, you've always got the crap table and we were like crap table number two. Well,
Starting point is 00:29:57 now that you've brought up weddings. So I did a little shout out for like, do you know what happened? So basically, send me anything you have on weddings. Anyone do anything weird at a wedding. I'm actually really excited.
Starting point is 00:30:07 Hi Joanne, I met a guest at a wedding who was a gynecologist in a very busy A&E in England. After having our starter and a few drinks,
Starting point is 00:30:15 I asked her what the strangest thing she had ever removed from her vagina was. She replied without missing a beat, a Big Mac. What? Follow-up questions from me
Starting point is 00:30:29 were numerous and of course I asked, was it wrapped? I went, was it? It was. It was wrapped. We got no more information
Starting point is 00:30:37 on that one. Do you know in Adam Kay's book, somebody was like, oh, I didn't, like, it was an accident how the remote went up my ass, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And Adam Kay was like, actually, I didn't, like, it was an accident how the remote went up my ass, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 00:30:45 And Adam Kay was like, actually, I kind of believed it until we removed it and there was a condom around it. What? He goes, I kind of was believing this person who said that it had gotten up his bum a different way until we were removing it and there was a condom over it.
Starting point is 00:31:03 I've heard some terrible stories recently that I can't even repeat on the pod about. Oh, text me though. I love those ones. I will, I'll text you them. Hi, Joanne. So my mum's boss went to a wedding and the bride got caught riding the best man
Starting point is 00:31:14 in the car park at her own wedding. The whole reception, including the groom, saw it as there were CCTV monitors mounted up at head height behind the bar. So as everyone was at the bar ordering drinks, you could clearly see them on the screen absolutely stunning why would you do that
Starting point is 00:31:28 the amount of stories I've had like about the bride and groom bride or groom yeah why I don't know why would you get married
Starting point is 00:31:37 if you're just gonna well maybe they're in open relationships I don't know but just a bit odd on your wedding day a bit odd my cousin had a grand old time with our photographer and now there's a bit odd on your wedding day a bit odd my cousin had a
Starting point is 00:31:45 grand old time with our photographer and now there's a whole section of my wedding missing doesn't count if they're still together I don't
Starting point is 00:31:55 I feel like they're not my cousin's fiance tried it on with me and five other women including the bride at a family wedding while his fiance
Starting point is 00:32:03 was sitting other side of the table. What a wanker. Oh, this one isn't about weddings. It just made me laugh. Hey, do you mind? You were talking about needing a single or double grave,
Starting point is 00:32:14 et cetera, on the pod. While my dad lay deceased in the room, the undertaker suggested that as I'm single I may need to bunk in with my parents that we should purchase a double grave
Starting point is 00:32:22 to have the space. Genuinely, just hours after he had passed. Listen, a deal's a deal. Get yourself a good deal. I'd be happy with that. That is so funny.
Starting point is 00:32:40 Oh yeah. I was at a wedding where the bride had gone missing for an hour and everyone was looking for her around midnight. The groom found her in their bed
Starting point is 00:32:49 in their honeymoon suite with one of the groom's men who was only 20 years of age. She was 30. The groom came down distraught and told the whole wedding party they had the wedding annulled. It was great crack.
Starting point is 00:33:01 Imagine. I think this is an act of rebellion. I think, I think some people, I think, sorry, I'm not, I'm going to go, I'm going to go big on this. I think this is an act of rebellion I think I think some people I think sorry I'm not I'm gonna go I'm gonna go big on this I think a lot of people
Starting point is 00:33:09 get married under duress i.e. they're second they're having dates cold feet blah blah blah and they go through it because the pressure
Starting point is 00:33:19 it's all done look I came Kardashian yeah but do you know what because so many people are depending on you and you've booked something in so that's probably why
Starting point is 00:33:25 people would be like that. You're like, I can't cancel now. My friend was in a wedding band and he slept with a girl on a night out. A few weeks later he was in her wedding band.
Starting point is 00:33:35 Said she was absolutely scarlet and just got off the dance floor immediately after the first dance. Yeah. Oh God. Stung in the bum. Can we do an entire podcast on weddings, please?
Starting point is 00:33:45 This is the one that got me started on the call out. Joanne, I was listening to the new app and you were saying you knew somebody whose cousin came on to run a wedding. Try this. My brother's ex told us she was at a wedding and was shifting a guy on the sly. Couple of hours later,
Starting point is 00:33:59 she was introduced to him as a cousin she'd not met yet. She said he didn't care and kept trying to shift her all night and eventually she just sucked him off in the toilets. Now, the thing that I love about this story is that she would have had
Starting point is 00:34:13 to have told her boyfriend the story for her boyfriend's brother to know this story. Do you get me? And then everyone knows the story that you sucked your cousin off. That's gross. There's a lot of cousin action going on, isn't there? See, this is the thing with cousins it's a very grey area it's nuanced
Starting point is 00:34:27 you know it's definitely not a grey area I have something like 50 cousins and I'm telling you what nothing is grey about our area we're very good friends
Starting point is 00:34:35 but we're not sexual towards each other yeah but the thing about it is is I think with cousins with family you feel a connection
Starting point is 00:34:41 to them this is like because I'm adopted there's a lot of warnings go out when you're adopted and you're finding your birth parents they're like come here now
Starting point is 00:34:48 why in case you wrote your your cousin when you meet your birth brother you might feel a connection don't shag him really yeah well do you know
Starting point is 00:34:56 I've heard that a bit when people meet their parents but like supposedly the first person that you ever fall in love with is like your mother or your father and then you try and recreate that your entire life.
Starting point is 00:35:06 Yeah. I know. That's interesting though. Yeah. If I see a man in a Volvo with a briefcase. What? Nothing. What?
Starting point is 00:35:20 Daddy? All I heard was briefcase. Daddy's back. If I see a middle-aged man driving a Volvo heard was briefcase. Daddy's back. I was like, if I see a middle-aged man driving a Volvo with a briefcase. Oh yeah. I'll throw myself in the bonnet. It's such a stinger for Volvo
Starting point is 00:35:33 because they're actually quite a nice car now but all I can think of is that big boxy square Volvo. You remember years ago? I think they're quite cool. this job that I'm on at the moment like it's kind of like a nine to five well it's a kind of you know obviously with hair and makeup it's a 3am you know yeah yeah the tour has not been kind to me anyway so it's a nine to five and I forgot it it so long since I've done that kind of office hour job.
Starting point is 00:36:10 I forgot the excitement of the lunch break. Oh, I know. Oh my God. You go in by half nine. We're like, what are you having for lunch? What's the crack? What are you ordering? Because we have to order in off this menu.
Starting point is 00:36:21 The absolute thrill of it. And then you're trying to delay because you don't get an hour for lunch. You just have to go back when you're finished. order in off this menu the absolute thrill of it and then you're trying to delay because it's you don't get an hour for lunch you just have to go back when you're finished so you're delaying it
Starting point is 00:36:30 like delaying it I'm like I'll cook my dessert from scratch do you know what I mean that's why I used to smoke back in the day because I'd be like extra time
Starting point is 00:36:38 I'm back on 20 marbles 20 marbles a day I might smoke up in the rain to delay the lunch break need a smoke break smoke break I'm like I want to cheer my zoo for dessert
Starting point is 00:36:44 but I'm going to make it from scratch so I'm just going to go off and soak my lady fingers. I'll be in other three areas, please. My lady fingers. The excitement of the delivery of the lunch and it's literally just a cup of soup on the back of a bike.
Starting point is 00:36:56 But you're like, oh my God, the lunch is coming. It's good. It's good. It's because you're getting a break. It's the best thing in the world. You'd swear it was a presidential visit. It's literally just a panini
Starting point is 00:37:05 on the back of a motorbike. Still, it helps. I love that. I love a nine to five though. You know what I'm like? Staying up late is a bit much for me. I haven't touched a beverage since we've broken up
Starting point is 00:37:17 after our Gaelic run. Have you not? No, and I am, to tell you, I feel fantastic. I feel great. I have to be honest. It's amazing. I'm kind of, I don't really tell you, I feel fantastic. I feel great. I have to be honest. It's amazing.

Starting point is 00:39:54 yeah I can't change his eyes Winnie gets right can you not change his eyes though I can't change have you looked into
Starting point is 00:40:02 it Winnie's 11 he goes to the vet twice a year for checkups. He's got four beds in our house. He gets three walks a day and his dog food costs me a lot of money every month.
Starting point is 00:40:12 He's not on the pedigree chump. Yeah, no, no. He's well looked after. He's well looked after. He's well looked after. I work for a company, right? And I did a reel for them because I drive their car.
Starting point is 00:40:22 And so it was a really lovely reel and I did a joke in the reel where I was like, Winnie, into the boot. And then I was a really lovely reel. And I did a joke in the reel where I was like, Winnie, into the boot. And then I was like, haha, like Winnie sits in the boot because Winnie wouldn't dream of sitting in the boot. Winnie gets a seat in the backseat. And so Winnie- Of course he does. Of course he bloody does. And Winnie hops into the backseat, anyway, in the reel. It's just a tiny bit. And someone commented on my reel and we're like, tagged RSPCA and and the car company
Starting point is 00:40:45 and we're like are you going to allow this animal abuse she's got no seatbelt on the dog I didn't know you were meant to have a seatbelt on the dog
Starting point is 00:40:52 Winnie would go absolutely nuts I don't think you're supposed to have a seatbelt on it I mean the RSPCA is this woman on crack
Starting point is 00:41:00 that dog has is so well looked after it has never worked a day in its life that dog could advertise creme after it has never worked a day and it's like that dog could advertise creme de la mer on its paws
Starting point is 00:41:07 like I've seen that dog be fed grapes on a private plane not a fucking seatbelt in sight like the absolute cheek of her he wasn't eating grapes
Starting point is 00:41:19 by the way they kill dogs do you want oh do they yeah oh so you were trying to kill Winnie the Pooh well that makes sense dogs, do you know what I mean? Oh, do they? Yeah. Oh, so you were trying to kill Winnie the Pooh. Well, that makes sense.
Starting point is 00:41:27 But seriously, are you going to condone this animal abuse? I thought, what the fuck? That is outrageous. I know. Do you remember
Starting point is 00:41:34 back in the day, your children, in the 80s, we were just drugged and put in the booths. I remember the best seat in the house was lying across the booth.
Starting point is 00:41:42 Do you remember the booth at the back, under the window? That was the best spot whoever got that you were raging you always watched that and my dad used to
Starting point is 00:41:50 hotbox us he'd be like smoking Benson no he was smoking Major at the time with the windows closed just like so much smoke in the car
Starting point is 00:41:57 I've seen like Vinnie Vinnie Winnie spends most of his time in a Louis Vuitton handbag you don't need to worry about Winnie
Starting point is 00:42:06 I've seen him he eats Faberge eggs for breakfast like he's grand also can we just get it how are you supposed to strap a dog into the backseat you're supposed to staple his ears
Starting point is 00:42:15 to the car seat how are you supposed to how are you supposed to secure a dog in the backseat of a car I don't know I'm going to have to look into it though because I don't want the RSPCA knocking on my door
Starting point is 00:42:23 he's just not going in the car anymore that's it let me google does a dog have to look into it though because I don't want the RSPCA knocking on my door. He's just not coming in the car anymore. That's it. Let me Google. Does a dog have to wear a seatbelt? Yeah, Google that. Let's get the deets. It's legal to take your car and the pet with you as long as you properly restrain them. Don't let them sit in the front seats. You just said
Starting point is 00:42:39 it's legal to take the car and the pet with you. Yeah. You know what I mean. You're not allowed to have them stick their heads and the pet with you. Yeah. You know what I mean. You're not allowed to have them stick their heads out the window. That's your speed reading. What was that book about, Vogue? I don't know. Shut up, Joanne.
Starting point is 00:43:01 I remember when I used to drive around with my dog, she'd be like pawing me off. Like, as in, not pawing me off, sorry. Jesus Christ. The other night in Killarney, so me and, me and Corrald were doing Prosecco down in Killarney in the INECC
Starting point is 00:43:18 and we thoroughly enjoyed it, by the way. And, and, I, sometimes before shows, we can feel a bit too relaxed. And we try to kind of psych each other up. We kind of pretend, slap each other and all this jazz.
Starting point is 00:43:31 And so I was like, come on, go out. And I threw a grape at him. Now, obviously, I don't understand or realize my own strengths. And it went right in his eye. It was like I'd thrown a rock at his eye. God love him. I was like, oh my my god I'm so sorry he couldn't see
