ROB BECKETT & JOSH WIDDICOMBE'S 'LOCKDOWN PARENTING HELL' S02 EP7: Paloma Faith Joining us in the studio this episode to discuss the highs and lows of parenting (and life) during the lockdown and beyo...nd is the brilliant singer and actress, Paloma Faith.Enjoy. Rate and Review. Thanks. xxx Paloma's new album 'Infinite Things' is available now and her new documentary is on the BBC on the 27th March:Paloma Faith has sold well over a million albums, had number ones all over the world, headlined Glastonbury, and sung to tens of thousands every week, but now, she is taking on her toughest challenge yet - having a baby. With unlimited access to Paloma as a woman, a mother, and an international pop-star in the public eye, this film follows Paloma on an emotional journey, as she balances the demands of a vital make-or-break tour with writing a new album, launching an acting career, and being a first-time mum. Filmed throughout 2019, the film observes Paloma’s life, both front and backstage, in the midst of a pivotal year in her career. It features appearances and contributions from Rag’n’Bone Man, Ty Taylor, and Jonas Blue as well as her band, management, and family members. We see her struggling with choices every mum will be familiar with, whilst embarking on enormous career challenges in a cut-throat business. Paloma not only returns to work after having her baby but also to huge expectations to break Australia and America. At every turn, we ask ‘Will Paloma pull it off?’ and although she ultimately looks successful, she is tested to the limit in doing so.If you want to get in touch with the show here's how:EMAIL: Hello@lockdownparenting.co.ukTWITTER: @lockdownparent INSTAGRAM: @lockdown_parentingA 'Keep It Light Media' Production Sales, advertising, and general enquiries: hello@keepitlightmedia.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Starting point is 00:00:33 Hello, I'm Josh Riddickham. And I'm Robb. Welcome to Lockdown Parenting Hell. The show in which Rob and I discuss what it's like to be a parent during lockdown, which I would say can be a little tricky. So in an effort to make some kind of sense of the current situation. And to make me feel better about my increasingly terrible parenting skills. Each episode will be chatting to a famous parent about how well they're coping. Or hopefully not. And we will be hearing from you the listener with your tales of lockdown parenting woe. Because let's be honest, none of us know what we're doing.

What's the snow for your family? A lot of snow, a lot of snow down in South East Under May. I'm talking like three inches of snow. It was madness and I drove, I had to drive into London to do Slove's go dating voiceover and it was icy. And do you know what? I enjoyed the V-O booth like Howard Hughes like I'm a germ-free. I'll be honest with you I was more expecting the X-Factor reference than the Howard Hughes one from you today. So that's... Do you know what though because what they do is they get they properly
Starting point is 00:04:55 disinfect the entire booth so it's saying yeah but I go in there and it's so small and it's sinks so much anti-back and then I do voiceover of Joey Essex and Way Linneka and when I come out I feel like I've been on drugs. Really experienced that. Yeah I don't know if that's the anti-back I think that's just pure uncut linaica. Uncut lina. But yeah I'm feeling good it's been a decent week to be fair after a couple of difficult ones so yeah I'm good I'm good I'm good. to thi thrown. I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm good I'm not a the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th the th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th the th the thi. th the thi. the the the thi. thi. the the that have sent the house into turmoil, but morale-wise overall, we're good. How about you? Good. Yeah, good. We've got a snowman, which was much more stressful than, because she's at that age where, you know, they picture something and then they want it to happen, and then it kind of doesn't happen exactly as they want so it stresses them out. I'd thi th th th th th th th th th th thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi. thi. thi thi thi thi thoooooomo tho tho tho tho tho tho tho. thi. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. the. the. the. theeeee. toeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. We're tho. the. them out. I'd say it became, making the snowman became an exercise in getting a photo that in years will make us think we had a better time than we did. Yeah, so what was your issues with the snowman build? Because I find with any snowman, it's only me on my own
Starting point is 00:05:55 in the cold finishing off the snowman, which sounds much more sexual than I needed. Yeah, I mean, that's a very different cartoon for Christmas Eve. What's that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I th. Yeah, I th. Yeah, I th. Yeah, I th. th. th. th th th th tho tho tho tho th th the the the the the the the th th th th th. th. th. th th. th th. th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th so th so th so th so th so the the the the the an the an the an the an the an thee an theee an theee an thee an thi thi thi thi thi cartoon for Christmas Eve. What's that doing out there? I was just wanking off Olaf. He always does it. They never, they never really contribute. They just want the snowman there. They don't really properly. Yeah, and I just think she's got very specific design specifications, you know. Okay, what's she after? Well, you know, the eye to the eye fell out and that annoyed her rather than making, I think, but I just part of the back in the hole for God's sake, you know, it's not that big a deal, come on mate. Let's move on from this. That stuff like that, you know, oh, the head's too big, oh, the body's not round enough, that kind of stuff.
Starting point is 00:06:32 Oh my God,'s like how I imagine being on location when they were directing on a Neil Buchanan's art attacks. Do you know what I mean? Right, so because I think we have a different approach this, so how, if you're doing it and then your talk keeps going, no, but I don't want it like this, how are you approaching that conversation? Do you try and like negotiate or do you redo it or do you just go, no, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, because, thi, because, because, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, best I can do? Well often the problem is I wouldn't go oh okay I'll try and I'll try and make the head bigger or whatever because you just can't because often the things are so unrealisticly ambitious that you can't do much about it really. Well I just go you do it then all right? Do you do it then? And then they really like no because they can't either and then they sort come they to they they to to they they they to they to they they they to they they to they they they they to they to to their they they to to to their their to to to their their their their their their tho. tho. tho. tho. th. th. thi. thi. th. th. thi. their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. the. the. thoooooooooooooooo. the. the. thoooo. the. tho. the. the. the like, no, because they can't either. And then we sort of come to a mutual understanding that that is not possible.
Starting point is 00:07:25 All right, then go and then, go and you do that, then I want that stick going in there. It won't, it will, all right, then you do it. That's a good way of doing it, Rob. Yeah, but I suppose that are my grown-up mates. Yeah, yeah. Which Luke says something because there's a bad I didn't want to be that parent's like oh we can do a little snowman and all like could you could you voice but there's an area between the. I'm just a the area between the two. Yes I understand yeah no I'll be honest with you I was just imagining you you and your daughter starting a building firm and it was
Starting point is 00:08:08 really I was really enjoying the image. Yeah well I did do something wrong really that it was a bad bit of parenting that I did so the eldest went behind the youngest and started just throwing snow on the youngest sown stuff on the youngest head don't I love that but I can see the little glint in a that she that she the the the the the the old the old the young the young the young the young the young the youngest the youngest the youngest the youngest the youngest the oldest the oldest the oldest the oldest the oldest the oldest the oldest is the oldest the oldest the oldest. so so so old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. the youngest. the youngest. the youngest. so. so. so little little little little little little little little little little little little little. so. so. so. so. so. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So, the the the the the. the. I. the. I. I'm. I'm. the. I'm. I the. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the pencil shot. She loves their stuff on the youngest head don't. I can see the little glint in her on that she knew this was a bit naughty and was going to get wet and then obviously loads of snow went down the youngest neck and she was really cold and started crying. So I went out with no you mustn't do that and then I took eye for an eye and I immediately regretted it, but I didn't like smash a snowball in a face. I just got a little bit and sprinkled on it very, very, it was very like, it wasn't aggressive
Starting point is 00:08:53 or like, it was just a little bit on a neck to so you can feel the cold there. And then I get to a situation where she's really crying and now I've got to apologize when I didn't even need to apologize in the beginning So then I had to apologize and she apologized to the youngest but then I just walked in and Louis went? What was that? Like Russian dolls of apologizing really isn't it? Yeah, it was bad? Did Lou then do it? Did Lou then do it? to Lou? there. to theyrtle. to? to do. to do. to do. their. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to to to to to to to to to apologize. to to apologize. they. to apologize. to apologize. to apologize. to to apologize. to to to apologize. to to to to to to to to to to to apologize. to to to they. they. they.

I. look I've done that to Rob to show me you shouldn't do it you do me and then eventually it sort of spreads out COVID I think that's what a terrible way for to stop shielding as well I have to explain that I was tired I was tired I was like I was no that is not how you're thaunecloat that I was like that to the too the too to to to to to to to the to to the to to to the the the to to the the that that that that I I I I I I I I I that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that's that's that's that's not that's that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not that's that is that is that is not that is not that is not that is not that is not that is not that is not that is not that is not that is not that is not that is not that is not that is that is that is that is that is that is not that is that is not that is not that is not that is not that is not that is not terrible. It was awful. That was back of the leaflet. But do you know what? The good thing about stuff like that, Rob, is that how swiftly you probably think, well, that's content for the podcast.
Starting point is 00:09:49 No, I felt bad actually at the beginning because that is not how you'd do it. But I just got really, she was, but she was, she had a little, little naughty looking at her the name Perry that's like, I was th..... And I I I I I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was th. And th. And th. the, I was, I was thi, I was thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how.. And, how, how, how. How. How. that, that, that, that, that, that's. that's. that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, I needed to go more Philip Perry. I went a bit more Russian soldier. I was trying to think of a person with a surname Perry that's like a thug, but I couldn't. Perry Groves. Perry Groves. Bit more Philip Perry, bit less Perry Grove. Yeah. We should have all of our parenting on a scale from Philip a to Perry Grove to Ferry Grove to Perry to Ferry Grove to to Perry to Perry to Perry to Perry to Perry to Perry to Perry to Perry to Perry to Perry to Perry to Perry to Perry to Perry to Perry to Perry to Perry to Perry to Perry to Perry toves to Philippa. Yeah. I don't know what Perry Grows is like at that. I don't want to, you know, Grow, it's a nice fire.
Starting point is 00:10:27 No, no, no, but I'm saying they're both great parents, but in different ways. Let's have it said. Perry Groves are Philipper Great Parents. Just for anyone that's with the putting the snow down the neck of your daughter. I was at secondary school and there was snow. So we were in like one of those porter cabins or whatever that they teach you in when they don't have enough rooms. And outside there was some kids and there was a teacher and obviously the teacher didn't realise anyone could see him and I saw him pick up a snowball and absolutely plant on the back of a head of a kid who he didn't like
Starting point is 00:11:12 and then just carry on as normal. The whole thing was unbelievable to watch. He was a PE teacher as well so it was hit with actually out the face. Oh they're always a bit noy. And you just saw him go this is my fucking chance to get revenge on this absolute little bastard. What, I can't think of anything worse than trying to make 40 kids play rugby. Oh mate, I can you imagine it? Even, I love sport, but I hated PE. I hated rugby was just, I used to run ahead of the ball so they couldn't pass to me. I'm not going back to university to be your friend. I'm going so I can get Uber 1 for students.

The Ford government still isn't investing in public schools. Six years of cuts mean our students aren't getting the supports they need. They can't wait another year. If the forward government won't change, it's time to change the government. Our kids are counting on us. Join us at Building Better Schools. the Elementary Teachers Federation of Ontario. Do you know what my daughter's got into? Oh yeah, go on. A video you put on Instagram of Tom Allen trying to get over a puddle. Right, so I don't get the puddle videos of me and Tom Allen are doing, are getting so many views,
Starting point is 00:13:01 but I don't even think they're interested. No, and I think it's purely my daughter. th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi, thi thi thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. thi. thi. thi, thi, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. theeeea. tooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. the think they're interested. No, I think it's purely my daughter. I reckon she's watched that first one 30 times. Why did she love it? Did she laugh? She just watched it once, loved it, and then she just keeps requesting it. And you're like, well, you know, it's pretty harmless fun. Yeah, it's justthe woods jumping puddles. Exactly, but she absolutely loves it. She can't get enough of it. You're, you're, I mean, you're producing content Rob for the three-year-old generation that is

Right, we got put over faith this week, Josh, correct? Plus, plus, 18 minutes of loveless banter beforehand. that, it just made me laugh. I think we should keep that in. Right, we've got to pull over faith this week, Josh, correct? Plus, plus 18 minutes of loveless banter beforehand. I know I'm, I love our little chats, Josh. So do I can't believe that swiftly, I moved into that's enough, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:14:36 I clicked on my screen, saw 18. It feels like, you know like they did them behind the scenes documentaries of like mega star rappers or singers or divas and they're like, whoa come hello Mexico and they're out on stage giving it and they walk off stage and immediately burst into tears. That's enough and I don't need an uncalled do one let's get back to LA. Oh brilliant. Oh do you know what Rob we've got another minute out of it. Oh look at our content everywhere mate, even on slip-ups. Even on slip-ups. Right, over we got. Paloma Faith, great interview.

Make sure you pay your license. And it's about her return to tour and music after having a child, but she's expecting child number two. And it's a very good interview Josh, you enjoy it?
Starting point is 00:15:49 Loved it, one of my favorites, really brilliant. Enjoy it! Hello Paloma Faye, thank you for coming on the show.

I just said, um, hello, welcome to the podcast. How many fucking kids you got? That is quite a... Josh's general sort of state of being is underwhelmed. Yeah, it really is. So I work with Rob.
Starting point is 00:16:29 I think Rob could be one of our great radio on breakfast DJs. One of the great radio on breakfast DJs. Do you know what? I think I've still got time on 35. No, it's too late. Greg James is having a go. It's my age. That's a problem with being a radio on DJ, it's a ticking time bomb, isn't it? You just, you know you're getting moved on, it's just when.
Starting point is 00:16:50 Is it when you wear a boot cut gene? What is it that happens? You walk in one day and they go, no, he's lost it or she's lost it? We're wearing a mobile phone host host. Yeah, exactly. Is that when you you you your kids. And like, no, no kids here. So Paloma, what's your set up with children? What's going on in the world of Paloma faith? I've got one four-year-old and one that's very soon to come in my in utero. Yeah. So, oh, wow. Wow. That is as pregnant as you get before you have a baby, in it really. That was a visual, by the way. that that that that that that that that that that that that the. the. the. thoe. tho. tho. tho. tho. thi. tho. tho. thi. tho. tho. tho. tho. to to to thiolome. to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the tho. tho. thoome. their thoooome. their by the way that wasn't that wasn't just us impressed with the with the
Starting point is 00:17:28 terminology. So how far off are you ploma? I sort of I try not to say because my last birth was so wrong it's a bit like when you go for your driving test and you don't want to tell anyone you've gone so I sort of just because everything went wrong she was early, it it that was that was that was that was that was a that was a that was a that was a that was a that was a that was a that was a that was a that was a that was a that was a that was a that was a that was a that was a that was a that was a that was a that was a that was a that was a that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was th. th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. It was a th. It was a thi. It was a thi. It was a thi. thi. It was a thi. the. thi. the. the. the. thi. the. to tell anyone you've gone. So I sort of just, because everything went wrong, she was early, it was a big bloody mess. Oh dear. It was just on many levels, so I try not to focus too much on the date. Fair enough. You know it's going to happen, but there's not. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:59 Well, that's the thing. I, I, like, like, like, like, like, I, like, I, like, like, I, I, like, I, I, I, like, like, I, I, I, like, I, I, I, I, like, I, I, I, like, I, I, like, I, I, like, like, like, like, I, like, like, like, like, like, like, I, I, the, the, the, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, th. th. th. th. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to.. to... to... to. th. th. th. th. th.thing, I'd say we, but Lou, you know, it was quite a traumatic birth for Lou and it went with our first ball and the amount of people when they go, yeah, it was so magical we had a home water birth for, like, for us, it was like, you know, been in the trenches. It was something like, you know, it was a magical day. It was just happy that it happened and everything, thi. quite a stressful experience, but you know, hopefully this time around me much smoother sailing. So how old's your first child, Polona? Four. And how are they feeling about the incoming sibling?
Starting point is 00:18:30 They say they're excited, but I'm sort of sniggering because I'm like, you don't know what's coming? I keep saying to her, like I'm trying to sort of manage her expectations. Yeah, like I said, like this baby's gonna cry a lot and it will probably get on your nerves but I said but then we could just leave it with daddy and run away. Okay and she's she's like in on it she's totally like whispers it in my ear like if we don't like it can we run away and leave it with daddy. Now I'm like absolutely. I'm like you and me, Felma and Louise. Yeah go. Have you got a plan for like bringing
Starting point is 00:19:15 the baby back then like some people get present for the the older kid or anything like that or you just you know it's just the escape plan you've got? I bought the present. I thought it was a nice idea, but now that I've received the boxes, I'm not sure how that baby's going to have like held those boxes inside my stomach for the full turn. Yeah. You could say she picked it up on the way back to the house. That's a good point. All the shops are shut, Josh. All the shots are shut. These kids are silly. All the shops are shut. Unless you get them something from like, Sagebrews.
Starting point is 00:19:50 I'll say she only had a credit card in there and she just did it online. Yeah. Yeah. Is your four-year-old in school or nursery? She isn't, she's been in nursery since she was 11 months old, but she's not at the moment because I'm shielding and I'm, I'd say I'm on the spectrum of like quite anxious about getting COVID. Yeah, especially when you're pregnant.
Starting point is 00:20:14 I saw on your Instagram as well, you said that you felt you went to the part of your four-year-old and you found it quite, it was quite stressful and people coming up to you and stuff because when you are in the public eye and you go outside people will be excited to see you go oh hey Paloma but in a pandemic it's not it's not ideal really when you're expecting. Yeah now I was really stressed also obviously I'm emotional like because I'm full of hormones so everything makes me cry so I was like a bit tearful I'm not a pregnant hormonal woman as as you may have noticed, but I'm finding this whole thing exhausting. Like it's so stressful. We've got your kids, you don't know if you're doing the right thing. They say nurseries are open, but you don't feel like you should send them,
Starting point is 00:20:56 or if that's the, and then you're worried that it's going to stop the development, but it probably feels the same as you, Paloma, but what people love about you is that you will say it. You know, I think a lot of people are feeling that way. We've spoken about it privately, Josh, to each other about like days where you just can't cope and it's all too much and it's difficult. But I think that by saying it, people really those everyone has those days it's so hard just to get through one day isn't it the news is horrific. Yeah and I you just touched on something there that I think's interesting about how you're always as a parent I think it goes beyond like the COVID thing you're always trying to sort of think oh what's the best thing for my child and quite often there's no kind kind a like th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th like like like like like like like like like like like th like like th like th like th like th like th like th like th like th like th like that that thi thi thi thi thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. thi. th. thi. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the thi. the thi. thi. thi. thi thi thi thi thi thi to to to to thi to to thi to theeee. thee. theeee. thi thi thi thi thi thi thi. th, oh what's the best thing for my child? And quite often there's no kind of clear-cut obvious decision. So you're like thinking, oh well on one hand
Starting point is 00:21:50 I don't want to, you know, I want to be socially responsible when that when she asked me like why I was staying home, I sort of say partly to protect the new baby and partly because we don't want to give it to like old people that might be really sick from it and and so.. so so. so so so. so so so. so. so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so you, so, so you, so you, so you, so you're like, so, so you're like, so you're like, so you, so you're like, so you're like, so you're like, so you're like, so you're like, so you're like, so you're like, so you th, so you, so you, so you, so you, so you, so you, so you, so you, so you, so you, so you, so, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, th, like, like, th, like, like, like, th, like, like, thi, like, like, thi, like, thi, like, thi, thi, thi, thi, don't want to give it to like old people that might be really sick from it and stuff and that we have to like not just think of ourselves in life and I'm trying to turn it into life lesson and then she's sort of like sucking it all in and then then like you see another kid and they don't know what to say to each other yeah or they like run away because they're not sure and she looks th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th thi like like like like like like like like like thi like the thi thi thi thi to to to to to thi to to thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to thi thi thi thi thi thi thi't know what to say to each other. Yeah. Or they like run away because they're not sure and she looks at me like am I allowed to go near them? Yeah it's so hard. And then I say and I put a little
Starting point is 00:22:33 mask on her and I say put your mask on then you can go over and then she sort of plays a bit and then she'll come back to me and then she goes I need to do my hands I need I to do I to do I to do to do my to do my to do my to do my to do my to do my to do my to do my to do my to do my to do my to do my to do my to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do I to do I to do to to to do I to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the their. the their. the their. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the to the to to to to to to to to to to to to do my hands now. Yeah, so it's horrible. It's heartbreaking. I also think it's like a little bit heartbreaking, but also it's kind of good that she's just like adapted and she's like, this is what we're doing at the moment. And she'll probably adapt. Like somebody said to me the other day, oh, it's so hard on the kids. Do you know what I mean? to think, you thi. thi, you thi, you thi, you thi, you thi, you thi, you thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, thi, thi, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th is, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. And, th. And, thi, th know what, actually, I think it's harder on the adults. Yeah. Well, the kids don't realize in a weird way what they're missing, if you know what I mean. Yeah, well, if you only lived like three to five years or whatever. Yeah. There's a lot of it.
Starting point is 00:23:14 It's not making a massive impact on your life. Like, we're all in our 30s, are we're all in our 30s. Yeah, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, thies, thies, thies, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, they, they, they, they, they're, they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're only they're they're they're they're thi, th.. a DJ ages 21 though. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's not talk about, you know, exactly else. We're mourning like something, you know, we don't know anything else. We're the one that you feel sorry for. And we've got to teach them, you know, all the guilt about the fact, I mean, I don't know what age they I was five. I don't, I really don't. That's early. I was about seven or eight.
Starting point is 00:23:47 Yeah, I think I was, I struggled with reading, I had to go to special reading classes, but they just brought out a bigger book. Is that why you're so loud, Rob? Because it's like everything you've read is massive. It's all in caps. I just think, well, when you look at Scandinavian countries they don't actually start school until they're about six or seven so we're already you know it's a bit much and then my mom was a teacher and she's just like I never
Starting point is 00:24:17 worried I just knew you'd do it in your own time and then I did and I left school with all A stars. That's one of the similarities with Rob and Paloma. Yeah, very much so. But I do think though, there's definitely a weird sort of competitive thing with kids when they're about four or five and they just started to learn to read and write. It's a weird like how well my old kid writes kind of energy. But let me say, the kids aren't aware of it. it like my eldest has started school this year. She, she, as far as she concerned, in January, everyone just does homeschooling for three months. She doesn't, she's never experienced school before. So she doesn't know. So I definitely think they're much harder than we realize. It's all like the mid-30
Starting point is 00:24:56 year olds that are trying to bring up kids and go to work, they're falling apart. They're all They're all projecting their own sad. They're all all all all all all all their their th. They're all th. They're all th. They're all th. They're all th. They're all th. They're all th. They're all projecting their own sadness. It's like, oh, it breaks your heart for them, doesn't it? It's like, actually break my heart for me. Yeah. Even though you literally just described me, that's fine. I still, it's like, it's like when someone comes up to you with a newborn or they do me and go, can I, can you do a picture of the baby? And you're like, what's the baby of fan? And they're like, oh, she'll love it when she's a bit bigger. I'm like, oh, don't really know how my career's going to go,
Starting point is 00:25:31 so maybe she'll be pissed off. Yeah, exactly. Also, that's a good thing. If you haven't, if any of us ever get canceled for something horrific, at least you'll know, the baby. Why did you let her hold hold tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho th You know that racist guy? Why did he let her hold me? The things she's done. Irresponsible parenting. So is your youngest you to go to school then next next next September? September yeah, it happens. Let's face it, oh T-Bos is really Tori Boris, that's what I call him. T-Bos. He's really dragging it out, isn't he? He's loving it. He's really
Starting point is 00:26:16 enjoying it, relaxing into it. My moment, people watching me on the tele every evening. How can we long all this out a bit more? Do you, have you been working? You have been working, you've recorded an album in lockdown, haven't you? The first lockdown, yeah. The first lockdown, what was that like with a four-year-old in the house? The first lockdown, we do sort of, I'm quite lucky because I still live in East London. My mom lives here so I can drop her off at hers.
Starting point is 00:26:45 Ah good yeah. But I did quite a lot of it after she'd gone to bed so I wasn't pregnant then so I wasn't tired. I'd do like day mum and then put her to sleep and then record my album into the night. Oh wow. That sounds very sort of romanticizedized, isn't it? That's really cool. Yeah, that's really cool anymore. Now I put her to bed and I go, oh, and then I sort of waddle to the bed myself. And then I just go to sleep for about two hours, and then I wee and then I go for another two and then I will. And then I go for my life at the moment. That's a the thing thing thing th a th a th a thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi. That's thi. That's thi. That's thi. That's thi. That's thi. That's thi. That's thi. though. thi. thi. thi. thoomomomoomoomom. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. thu. thu. thu. thu. th. th. th. th. th. That's. That's. That's. That's. That's. th. That's. That's th. th. th. th. th. the. the. the. that's to. to. to. to. that's to. to. to. that's to. to. to. thoooooooooooooooo. the., yeah, and then I go through. That's my life at the moment. That's the thing, isn't it, like, when the baby's due to come and they're so tiring having a newborn,
Starting point is 00:27:29 but it's not as if like you've had nine months of chilled sleep leading up to it, is it? You slowly get less and then it just for the 174th time. A true. So what's the four-year-old sleeping like now? What kind of shift she on? It's really good. We've done this brilliant thing that I actually was at my wits ten because I was a bit like, how the hell am I going to handle this, the fact that my four-year-old gets in my bed in the middle of the night and starfishes with a newborn as well, it's not going to work, so I thought I've got to nip it in the bud soon
Starting point is 00:28:11 and I do this thing now. This is a bit of proper parenting advice. Oh yes, please. So it works on a four-year-old because obviously when you sleep trained a baby they can't talk but a four-year-old can just get out of bed and walk in and go, mom and have a biscuit and you're like what? As if you're not asleep they talk you if you're not asleep? What's that? It's just like no empathy at to what am I talking? Anyway so what we do now is we go into the bedroom, do like two stories, say goodnight, and then everything they ask for is like you've got to divert to the morning, so you have to say, yeah, in the morning we'll do that or whatever. So you do all that, you say good night, and then they say, then the first night she was like, mom, I don't want to go, because the thing was, was we were sitting in her room to help her go to sleep, which is why she was coming to find us in the middle of the night, because she thought she couldn't do it on her own.
Starting point is 00:29:18 So you have to take them to go to sleep by themselves at the beginning, So to do that, she's like, mom, I'm hungry. And it's like, in the morning, we're going to have the best, biggest breakfast. Mom, can we have one more cuddle? In the morning, I'm going to cuddle you so much, all like that. And then you say, I'm going to go out of my room, and all you've got to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do the the the the, the the, to do the the, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, the best. the best. the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, the best. the best. the best. the best. the best. the best. the best. the best. the best. the best. the best. the best. the best. the best. the best. the best. the best. the best. together. together, together, together, together, together, together, today, together, today, the today, the best. the best. the best. the best. the best. you've got to do is stay in bed and if when I check on you you've stayed in bed you get like a bead in the jar, there's a little empty jar on her counter and then I go the first night I did like two minutes and then I went in and I was like well done put a bead in I said I'm going to come and check on you again and then you keep doing it and you extend the amount of time that it the amount the amount the amount the amount th of th of th of th of th of th of th th of th. the amount of the amount of th. th. the amount of th. It the amount of th. It th. It's the amount. It's th. It's the thi. It's thi. It's the the the thi. It's thi. I'm to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the of the. I te. I tean. tean. tea' tea'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'er. te. the the the the the it takes by which time the third fourth time they're asleep anyway. Yeah wow that's a great technique. Yeah and then you fit when the jars full after like three four days then you
Starting point is 00:30:14 they get a prize from the prize box which age three or four is like a bit of old sweet rapper. Yeah. Rolled up Tim Foil into a ball. There you go. Like a cat, have that? Yeah. It's a feather on a string. She had like little bubbles or like a little notebook or, you know, something or a toy that they don't play with very much anymore.
Starting point is 00:30:39 It's not already theirs. And then eventually it took three days, because said to her like all you have to do is stay in your bed so if you wake up you call me so it's a bit annoying because they do wake up still but you just got to keep them in their bed and then after three days she just didn't wake up anymore. Wow. Oh brilliant. Are you still doing the beads in the draft? I only do it one a night whereas before I was doing like five chet. Yeah, it takes like three weeks or something to fill it up. So she sort of gets a surprise but it takes longer. Yeah. That's insane what humans have to do with their offspring. You can see like a giraffe bangs out a a giraffe, bangs out a little baby giraffe, and it just walks off. It's walking and eating leaves for a weawea.
Starting point is 00:31:28 Yeah, and I doubt a giraffe, so I thought, oh, I wonder if my giraffe's gonna go asleep tonight. I really need to work on my giraffe prize box, because there's some really disappointing leaves in there. It's not enticing. I the giraffe, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I thured, I, I'd thured, I'd thured, I'd thicked, I'd thicked, I'd thicked, I'd thicked, I'd that out, I'd tho, I'd tho, I'd that out, I'd th out, I'd that, I'd that, I'd that, I'd that, I'd that, I'd that, I'd that, I'd that, I'd that, I'd that, I'd that, I'd that, I'd that, I'd that, I, I, I, I'd that, I, I, I, I'd thout, I'd thout, I'd thout, I'd thout, I'd that-I'd that-I'd that-I'd that-a, I'd that-in't that-a, that-a, thoanan't thoan't thoan't thattoo, thattoo, that's thateateating, th can just play this by ear. Yeah, yeah, yeah, show what? I reckon we'll be all right. Paloma, you've been quite open as well about your problems with conceiving the second child. Yeah. And so you've had quite a lot of rounds of IVF, is that right? Which was great because I didn't really want to have sex with my partner anymore. Having children with someone's quite eternal.
Starting point is 00:32:12 Yeah, they're really. I'm only joking. He's very hot. I can't wait to Google Image search him as soon as this interview ends and I'll uh. He's very, very attractive. Yeah, but it was harder this time because the last time we had problems, it was something on his side and then because of the traumatic birth I had, I was sort of carved up a bit, ugh. It was both, because it was all a bit dingy. So. Anyway, now we've mentioned my vagina. I'd just like to just point out that I do have
Starting point is 00:32:50 an album out called The Infinite Things. It seems like the perfect time. Did you, because we have a lot of people talking about IVF and like the the wanking room essentially. So did your husband have, your partner have to go into the little wanking room? Well yeah he did. Apparently when I woke up the first time we did it for our first child. Apparently I was so delirious on like the anesthetic when I woke up that I actually said to him, were they playing Marvin Gay in the wank room? I don't have any recollection of saying it.
Starting point is 00:33:32 I don't know why that was in my head. I don't think there was like mood music. Well, yeah, also, I imagine there must be someone that had a wank in the morning, forgetting it was the day. And then they get to the hospital, I don't, I just don't, I, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't have, I don't have think, I don't have th. I don't have th. I don't have think, I don't have think, I don't have think, I don't have think, I think, I think, I think, I think, I think, I think, I think, I think, I th. I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I can't, I can't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I can't know, I can't, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I'm that, I don't know, I don was the day and then they get to the hospital like I don't, I just don't think I can. I don't think I can. Just does take out. Just putting some flour and water just to kind of bulk it up a bit so. Yeah. We tested the sample and it seems to be hand soap.
Starting point is 00:34:06 Yeah. Is it a stressful experience other than that? Or is it, like, what does it feel like to go through that process? As you might be able to tell, not much makes me very serious. I, um, I'd say it could be stressful for some people and it's a little bit stressful thinking, oh will it or won't it work, but I'm sort of feel really lucky that I've got the career that I've got and I'm always busy because when they talk about the thing, so the most stressful bits really, after they put the embryo in you, you have to wait and they call it
Starting point is 00:34:42 the two week wait before you do a test and during that time a lot of people sort of take time off work or whatever is sit around pacing the floor and I just get on with life so I feel like you know for yourself like what your boundaries are and I actually knew that I'd had enough after free goes and then this second lockdown are and I actually knew that I'd had enough after free goes and then this second lockdown happened and I thought what else am I going to do? Yeah. I'll have another go and then it worked. Oh brilliant yeah. I don't know stress yeah but do they tell you is there anything in that two
Starting point is 00:35:21 weeks are they like don't do this or obviously can't geted or anything but is there like things you can and can't do? Not meant to lift your child which I think is impossible? Yeah, that's tough. Like if your kid falls over you're not going to go sorry, stay down. Two week break mate. It's the two week. Might have another one coming so you know I don't want to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get it it to get it to get it to get it to get it to get it to get it to get it to get it to get it to get it to get it to get to get to get to get to get to get to get their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their to to to get to get toe. tip. tip. tip. tip. tip. tooe. tip. tip. tip. tip. tip. tip. the. to you. Get up yourself. I do think that's true that when they fall down I know that obviously if you had kids hurt but like some some parents are too eager if their kid trips slightly they run over yeah yeah oh my god do you can't come like it's fucking nothing wrong with them and then they see your face and they go, ah! Yeah, also as well, when you're a kid having a bloody knee, it's quite cool, as a parent, you go, oh my god, my baby's poor knee, but when you're a kid you go, that's right, I've got a scab on my knee,
Starting point is 00:36:10 I have a fucking bad boy. I haven't had a grace, she's really hates imperfection. She's just like, can you see that? Can you see that? She'll be showing you like a tiny little dot. And then she's like, I think I need to plaster. And I'm like, I'm not giving you a plaster. My oldest is like that.
Starting point is 00:36:37 It's all, everything's like, and if this little cut, I, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you don't, you don't, you don't, you don't, you don't, you don't, you don't, you, you don't, you don't, you don't, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you don't, you don't, you don't, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that,'ll squeeze her finger into a tiny bit of blood coming here. Do you think if you started buying those really ugly like fabric flesh color ones and that was all that was available they'd stop doing it? Oh yeah it's because there's pepper pig plasters or whatever that's like our dinosaur plaster she's got some of them in the cupboard. Quick give me the knife. I think if I if I if I was started again and I like you know you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you know had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had had my my my my my my my my my the that had had had my that that the the the that that that th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the that had had had had had that had that that that that that that that that had that's that had that had that's really. I the. that. I the. th. I th. I had th. I had th. I had the cupboard. Quick, give me the knife. I think, if I, if I, if I, if I was starting again and I'd like, you know, had my kids, I reckon, the first time they cut themselves, you just get like a whole toilet roll
Starting point is 00:37:13 and just wrap it around their hand. So they'll put it like giant a lollybub. Yeah, that's what we do. enough for a plaster? Really embarrassing. All right I'm just getting a dog cone. There we go, I pop that on your head now, you've got your plaster on. Aone of shame. Yeah, home's falling. How much of the time do your kids watch TV for at the moment? Oh, I mean. Most of the day. Yeah, pretty much all the day and I'm sat there with and watching it normally. Yeah, the tele is basically the childminder. So what what what what what what what what what are what are what are what are what are what are you you you are you are you are you are you are you are you are their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their.

Yeah. That. That. Thatthere with and watching it normally. Yeah. The tele is basically the childminder. So what are you watching of your kid? Is there you got any fave shows? I really, all the Pixar ones are so good aren't they? And I wish they put one out of wheat for a lot.
Starting point is 00:37:56 Yeah. Because you can't, I mean, there's only so many times you can watch it. But in terms of shows, we now like, it was a massive period of time of Port Patrol and it did my head in. Yeah, that is a tough one. That's a tough right. I'm just like, I'm really glad that I'm out of the other side of that. Yeah. And now we're into Gabby's Dolls house. Oh, what's that? Yeah, mine likes Gabby. Is that on Netflix? Yeah. And it's like a actual person, little girl. the the tol tip. tip. the tip. tip. tip. tip. time. time. time. the time. time. time. time. the time. time. time. the time. the time time time time time time the time time time time the the the time time time time time time time time time time time time time time the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the time.

And then you drink down into a cartoon. Yeah, that's like, yeah, I've seen that. Yeah, I've seen that. Yeah, I've seen that. I mean, poor patrol, it's almost like, when I'm, I talking about awful like kids' TV shows that your kids like. I imagine. I imagine. I imagine. I imagine. I imagine. I imagine. I imagine, I imagine, I imagine, I imagine, I imagine, I imagine, I imagine, I imagine, I imagine, I imagine, I imagine, I imagine, I imagine, I imagine, I imagine, I imagine, I imagine, I imagine, I imagine, I imagine, I imagine, I imagine, I imagine, I imagine, I imagine, I imagine, I imagine, I imagine, I imagine, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm imagine, I'm imagine, I'm imagine, I'm imagine, I'm like, I'll like, I'll like, I'll like, I'll like, I'll like, I'll like, I'll like, I'll like, I'll like, I'll th.

We're smoking a lot of weed, but hopefully, you know, they'll move on, they'll get off here and that kind of stuff. So it's like, we prefer that they just do it around to ours because it feels safe. Yeah. Hey guys, you want to watch some poor patrol.
Starting point is 00:38:57 It's fine. I can get some poor patrol. We prefer that she watches poor. that she that she that she thah. thah. thah. thah. thah. the poor the poor the poor the poor the poor. the poor. the poor. th. the poor. th. their th. th. th. th. thathea. their their their their their. thathea. they're they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they. they'll they'll they'll they. they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll they'll their. their. their. their. their. the. the. theat. theat. theat. theat. theat. We'll theat. theat. We'll their they'll they'll they'll they'll Poor Patrol home rather than goes out to watch the toy. Yeah, yeah, exactly. You don't know watching Poor Patrol in the park, do you? You don't know who she will. It's only cut with other TV shows you don't want to be cut with when she's buying it. We're not.
Starting point is 00:39:15 With all the tell. But we're not, we're just trying to, because now the eldest is doing some actual home schooling. She has some lessons because she started school. The youngest is a bit jealous because she's not getting that interaction and stuff. So we get to a point where also, also I don't, it's not good. Their whole point of the first year of school is sort of interaction stuff but the school's been pretty good because it's been so raining and it was quite nice weather today. They went, well it's quite nice today so what we're going to suggest that we do all this phonics and stuff in the morning but after their outdoor learning where you can go to the park oracher so they can see what they've done if they're handwriting and stuff and then they send back some sort of notes
Starting point is 00:40:08 and stuff. But they're quite relaxed about it, but it does give you a bit of structure to the day, which is quite good, rather than it just being a free-for-all. I try and do that with my four-year-old, but I think, but I, but I, but I, but I, but I, but I th-and-and-s, but I, but I th-old, but I th-old, th-old, th-old, th-old, th-s, th-s, th-s, th-s, th-s, th-s, th-s, th-s, tho, th-s, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, th-s th-s th-s th-s th-s, th-s, th-s, th-s, th-s, th-s, th-s, th-s, th-s, and th-s, and th-s, and th-s, and th-s, and th-s, th-s, thro, throoan, throan, than, throan, throan, throan, thean, throan, than, tha-s, doing? We, I try and do a different topic every week and I sort of watch her for the week and see what she needs me to do. So like, things come up and then I go, we'll do that next week. But she, my mom was a teacher so I send her to hers twice a week as well. And so she'll do the same topic. So I text they were doing this. And it it it's, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. tho, th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thee, thee, thee, thee, thi, thi, the the the tho, tho, to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to me, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the that, the the the the thee, the the the thee, the thee, the too, the the the the the toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo So our text and they were doing this and it's quite good like so this week we did the sea the ocean and then we did a few phonics in the morning like what word starts with that lived in the sea and then she has to write it and then we drew a few of them. Have you got that one Rob? Yeah all I've got so much is frog but that's more I know it's more but I wouldn't say I've seen a frog in the sea. What was it like growing up as a daughter of a teacher did you
Starting point is 00:41:12 go to her school? I did. Oh what was that like? Well I was never actually taught by her but she in infants and I was in the juniors yeah when it happened and it was the th. th. th. the th. th. th. th. the th. th. th. I was th. I was th. I was th. I was th. I was to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be. I was to be a the to be. I was. I was. I was. I was not. I was not. I was not. I was not. I was not. I was not. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was in a the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. I was th. I was th. I was a th. I was in. I was in. I was in. I was in. I was in. I was in. I was in. t. too. too. too. to. too. to. to. to. too. th. th. the the was in the juniors when it happened and it was probably the reason why I was good as gold because if I ever was not good I'll get double trouble. Yeah yeah so I'll get in trouble from the teacher and then when I got home they'd be like I heard what you did in the staff room at lunchtime and I'll be like oh shit and I feel like that's why I'm a naughty adult. Oh, because it was so impressed in you as a child. I was just like trying to be good all the time. And so, yeah, now I'm like, yeah, fuck it.
Starting point is 00:41:58 Yeah, fuck it! Yeah. So, yeah, so I try and do little projects and we made the coral reef in a jar. Oh, to be fair, you're doing exactly what my five-year-olds doing, where they do sounds and they do different drawings and stuff like that. So you're pretty much doing homeschooling already, so the kids can be flying. Oh, good. Nailing it. But next week I've decided, and this is a big one for me, that I'm going to do a week about being kind. Yeah? Nice. Because the other day, the cleaner was there and she said like something about the coral reef, like, you should add the
Starting point is 00:42:40 turn. And she went, don't tell me what to do. And I was like, I looked at her and I went don't you ever let me hear you talk to her like that again and she's just melted down crying like buckets. I took her out the room and I was like you cannot speak to grownups like that. And then he was like but then she said to me once she'd sort herself together. But I didn't know why that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that that that that that that that that that to that that th. And I to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to that and I that and I that. And I th. And I their and I their their their their their their their their their tho. And I was they. And I was they. And I they. And I they. And I they. And I went. And I went. they. And I went. And I went. And I went. And I was like. And I was like. And I was like, you cannot speak to grown-ups like that. And then he was like, but then she said to me, once she'd sort of got herself together, but I didn't know why that was rude. Can you tell me why that's rude? Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:13 Oh, yeah. And now I'm like, okay, we're gonna do a week on that. It can't explain there, isn't that, that are kind of difficult to communicate. Why is it rude? And she was sort of doing a funny face, so I don't think she meant it like truthfully. She was sort of like acting a little character. Yeah. Well, yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:35 Well, I suppose if she's like, you know, the way you are always messing around and the way you delivering that could be quite funny because it's done in a certain way. I don't know I've got this major paranoia that people will think like okay Paloma Faye pop star in the public eye her kids are going to be brats. Yeah. Yeah. They're going to go well they're probably rude, entitled, whatever. So I'm sort of overly on her about it all the time, so I want people to go, oh, do you know what? He's done a really good job with them. That's some sort of East Enders deleted soon.
Starting point is 00:44:21 Just like, oh, they said said please and thank you. Like any normal human being should. Cut to 20 years time when they win a Brit Award and they go, thank you so much, please thank you for my award, thank you. I'm like, subservient, shaking up down the stairs. Thank you so much. What I was like. Yeah, when they're on your radio one show Rob, they'll be really polite when you invite him in.
Starting point is 00:44:46 We need 120. Yeah, I'm there. Forty Stone, three divorces. Welcome to Radio One. Time for Newsbeat. Rob, you always like to end with the same question. The final question, Poloma is is there something that your partner does parenting wise that really annoys you but you can't say it to them without it turn into a big row but it's a fair point and if they listen to this they would go right I think she's right you know and would maybe take it on but if you did bring it up after bedtime it could it could escalate.
Starting point is 00:45:17 Well I bring everything up. I thought you might say that. There's luckily we do go to couples couples cccccupupupupupupupupupupupupupupupupupupupupupupupup c. to couple to couple to couple to couple the the to couple the to couple the the. So there's a few that I have brought up but have backfired. But luckily we do go to couples therapy which I'm a big fan of every week. Yeah. And so we talk about these things in that but there's a few so let me have a thing of the best one. So I see TV not as meant to be something educational. I see it as like a break. Yeah, okay. Because when I watch tele, like I might go in the bath and put the iPad on and watch something in the bath.
Starting point is 00:45:53 A last leg or something. No. And then, if I do that with her, like let her watch poor patrol, whatever that we hate. He's just like, this is not productive. And you're basically letting her her, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. to to to to th. to to to the to to to the to to their to to watch their, tel, tel, tel, tel, tel, tel, tel, tel, tel, tel. tel. tel. tel. tel. tel. tel. I watch, tel. I watch, tel. I watch, tel. I watch, tel. I watch, tel. I watch, tel. I watch, tel. I tel. I tel. I tel. I tel. I tel. I tel. I tel. I, tel. I tel. I tel. I tel. I tel. I tel. I'm, tel. I'm, tel. I'm, tel. I'm, tel. I'm, tel. I'm, tel. I tel. I tell. I tell. I's just like there is this is not productive and you're basically letting her feel her mind with terrible influences especially if it's like something really pink and girly because we're not really into that. Yeah. But I'm like but the moment that I suddenly start censoring pink and girly things, she's definitely going to want it. You let her watch it and it will last a month and then she'll lose interest.
Starting point is 00:46:29 Yeah, I definitely think that's a good approach. But like he's really not into it. Also he's French so he wants her to watch everything in French and then he comes over and he's like, it's in English and I can't understand it if it's in French. You really want to watch Paw Patrol. Also I don't understand it in English to be fair. I can't explain the plot to her if it's in French. Is there is there much plot explaining? Pullover. Thank you so much for over. Thank you so much for the the birth. Thank you so much for the birth. Thank you. It's been an absolute joy. Good luck with the with the birth. Thank you. Been a pleasure. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. to the same way last time when we weren't recording. Don't know why I said it that way,
