Today’s episode is going to have you in a belly laugh. We have had Joanne McNally on the pod before and if you listened to that episode you already know that she is one of the funniest, most chaotically brilliant people we have ever had on this show.
In that episode, “The art of riding a lover to sleep” we spoke about what led her to comedy, being adopted, her non-existent pelvic floor and wild dating past.

Since we last spoke, Joanne's life has changed a lot. On the career front, she's absolutely on fire. Her current tour Pinotphile has already sold across the world and she is about to make history as the first Irish female comedian to headline the 3Arena solo. She has come to the conclusion that she is, possibly, in the middle of a midlife crisis. Or as she now prefers to call it, a midlife audit.

We chat:

Dating younger men and how it’s different
How she got the name ‘Pinotphile’
The fake Instagram account she shares with a friend
Whether men are genuinely intimidated by funny women, and the power shift that happens when someone makes you laugh
Deciding she wants to have a baby with her gay best friend and why she doesn't want to do it completely alone
Finding her biological dad on Facebook, her half brothers in Melbourne, and what their relationship looks like now
What it actually looks like to run a friendship and a business with Vogue William and why being professionally obligated to each other makes the friendship deeper
