This is a Global Player original podcast.
Joanne McNally
Welcome to my therapist ghosted me with me, Joanne McNally and me, Vogue Williams and Joe Attiwell. Can I talk about Mel Robbins for a second?
Vogue Williams
Mel Robbins, which one's that now? Cause I know that other fellow. What's his name? You know him? I always try and bring him up when you bring up Mel Robbins and I never know what his name is.
Joanne McNally
Robert Greene.
Vogue Williams
No. And he goes, oh, she's an author.
Joanne McNally
Mel Robbins, podcast host, former lawyer. She is known for her TED Talk how to stop screwing herself over and her books, the Let them theory. Okay, so she's kind of like a, I would say self helpy territory, but she's, she's having a real moment at the moment and I think she's great. I really like her podcast and stuff. But she has this, what she's calling a theory, right? It's called the let them theory. And it's kind of doing the rounds at the moment and everyone's kind of engaging this Mel Robbins theory called let them. So if someone wants to break up with you, let them. If someone wants to not invite you to a party, let them. If someone wants to fuck you over, let them. Yeah, exactly. And thank them. Send a thank you card for not interfering with your life. And it's so, it's this kind of, it's, it's, it's kind of stoicism. It's like, it's, it's just like let it be kind of thing. Yeah, but no offense to Mel Robbins because like I'm a fan. But it's so weird that people are going on like she's invented this theory, Let them. It's basically fuck them. It's fuck them.
Vogue Williams
I know, it's, it's fuck them. But it's also like, it's one of the hardest things to do as well. Like if someone breaks up at you and you're like, okay, fine, Spencer breaks up me tomorrow. Okay, fine, I'll let you, I'll let you. And I'll do nothing about it. Yeah, right. I'll be bringing you non stop.
Joanne McNally
You just have to kind of suck some shit up. But like we were growing up, we were, we all, we all had this saying that we used to say to each other going, let them off. So let them off, let them off, let them off. Like if someone, if you brought a complaint to one of your friends, this person screwed me over, and they've said this mean thing or they've done this mean thing, we'd be like, do you know What? Let them off. And it kind of releases it from you. I just thought it was very strange the way people are kind of acting like my Robbins has coined this let them off thing. It's.
Vogue Williams
Why don't you. Why don't you bring back. What was that? So you just said, no, let them off.
Joanne McNally
Let them off.
Vogue Williams
You. She can have. Let them. McNally's new book. Let them off.
Joanne McNally
Let them off them. That's my book. Joe, if. If Josie left you for another man, right. And you were obviously, I assume you'd be perturbed. Yeah, yeah.
Vogue Williams
Perturbed.
Joanne McNally
Would you be perturbed? Yeah, you'd be a bit.
Vogue Williams
Some perturbment of anguish. Yeah.
Joanne McNally
There be. There'd be a. A sprinkling of perturbement, for sure. And so if I was just like, you know what? Let her off. Because also I feel the harder, the more you try to hold on to something, you know that saying, let go or be dragged. So you can. You can be dragged. You can. It's. It is, it's the. It's the let go. It's the let. It's a let it go theory, basically. And it's. And it does work. It really does work. If you kind of engage your core and you're like, you know what? Let them. Because you know why? The more you let them, the chances are they'll come back around, which is ultimately what we want. It's revenge.
Vogue Williams
I know, but whoever. Come on. It's like, I love the sound of let them. And it sounds amazing and I'd love to be a part of the let them gang, but like, I think when you're on the other side of the let them. If you're not. If you're not the let them person and you're the one that has to be like, oh, I have to let them. Then you're like, oh, no, this is really hard. Hold on.
Joanne McNally
You mean if you're not the person doing the thing that they need to let.
Vogue Williams
Yeah, if I'm not being.
Joanne McNally
Yes.
Vogue Williams
I don't. If I have to be the let them, I'd rather be the let.
Joanne McNally
Yeah. It's a lens. It's a way of thinking that you have to kind of practice because. Yeah, it's. But it's all. I mean, I know I'm getting real woo woo now, but it's all. A lot of. It's just ego based. So if you can kind of park your ego and say a lot of it's rejection or you feel a lot of the time when People reject you. They kind of trigger a belief that you already have about yourself. And that's where the kind of trauma or the pain comes from. You're like, I knew I was a piece of shit. And the only way to not feel like a piece of shit is to win their approval back. Which is why we're always grappling with these feelings when our exes move on. Blah, blah, blah. Anyway, that's all I'm saying. Let them. Let them. It's not new. That's all I'm saying. But I do really like her. And if she wants to have me on her pod. I debated with her.
Vogue Williams
Oh, she'd be thrilled now to have you.
Joanne McNally
I think you mean them, Mel. I think that's what you're saying, but you're trying to say it in a sander way. It's a more kind of namaste way. But it's ultimately they can go themselves.
Vogue Williams
Ice. My therapist has this thing with. With anxiety, like, when I go into, like, an anxious spiral and he's like, did you do the flow thing? And I'm like, yeah, right when I was about to pull my own eyes out of their sockets, I sat there and I said, do the flow thing. Like, it's really hard to just sit, but I can't actually remember what it is I wrote.
Joanne McNally
I was like, you're gonna have to tell us what the flow thing is.
Vogue Williams
It's basically about, like, releasing stuff. And, like, they all, like, stand for something. I tried to Google it there. I have it written down in my. In my. The journal at home. But, like, it's very hard when you're being really anxious to then try and flow, to be unanxious. It's just, it's Even with, like, the breathing techniques. In for seven, hold for three, out for 11. I know it's meant to work.
Joanne McNally
I. Yeah, I'm the same. I. I'm quite reactive. It's hard to remember to breathe. Like, if I'm upset or angry, I might stop breathing altogether, let alone work through my breath work. They say I. I hear a lot about breath work. Moment. I hear a lot about breath work.
Vogue Williams
Spany said that you. It's. You can get a feeling of being like you're high if you do this special type of breath work that people do. Like this mad kind of breath. Yeah.
Joe Attiwell
For that Wim Hof.
Vogue Williams
It's a breathing. There's a wi. Yeah, but there's.
Joanne McNally
Yeah, he's the ice bath dude, right?
Vogue Williams
Yeah, but I. But Spenny said he was. Because he used to do all these breathing things and then he was on his motorbike at a traffic lights and he did it and he was like, oh my God. He felt like he was gonna faint. Like he just be doing it. So sitting down, don't be doing it. Operating any kind of machinery because it's meant to be wild.
Joanne McNally
Yeah.
Joe Attiwell
Like hyperventilating on purpose. You flood your blood with oxygen and it makes you feel all wooey and sort of bit drunk.
Joanne McNally
So what is the point of that? To distract you from the pain that you're feeling in the moment is to almost knock yourself unconscious. Is that, Is it just a distraction method?
Vogue Williams
Well, the breathing one to the one in for. In for like seven or something and hold for three. It's because you're concentrating. You're not. You don't usually count your breath. So if you're like in for seven, you're accounting and you're holding for three. So you're so focused on that that it's making you forget about everything else while calming you down.
Joanne McNally
Yeah. So it's distraction. It's kind of. To recenter yourself. It's like touch grass. It's that thing of kind of re center. And don't let your brain run away with itself.
Vogue Williams
Yeah, well. Yeah. And it's. Well, it's hard to catch it sometimes when it does do a runner. It's much like a horse on a track.
Joanne McNally
It's very hard. It is. It's very hard to get that crazy horse back in the stable, isn't it?
Vogue Williams
It's only when it gets back into the stable and you're like, whoa, that was a real crazy time there.
Joanne McNally
12 laps of paranoia later. Oh, it's coming back.
Vogue Williams
Come back.
Joanne McNally
Come back here. Yeah.
Vogue Williams
Walking around the place for a while.
Joanne McNally
I was reading a story the other day about a man who died. It was a jockey who was in the middle of a horse race and he died of a heart attack while he was on the horse. But no one realized and the horse finished the race. And he is still historically the only dead person to finish a horse race.
Vogue Williams
Stop.
Joanne McNally
He had a heart attack. They think it was because, you know, stayed on. He was. They're strapped on the legs and no one noticed. They're all clapping him as he crossed the line. He's full blown dead.
Vogue Williams
You're not strapped on. You're. You're. You're not strapped on. Your feet are just in stirrups. How the hell did he manage to stay on?
Joanne McNally
I get, Yeah. I don't know.
Vogue Williams
A fantastic Jockey evening. Let me.
Joanne McNally
Let me google it. Hold on a second. Cuz. It was actually fast.
Vogue Williams
There is no worse feeling than when a horse takes a run with you. There is, honestly. Because you're sitting there and you're like that's it. In about less than a minute I'm gonna be thrown off this horse and I'm gonna end up in hospital.
Joanne McNally
Frank Hayes remains the only jockey to win a race posthumously. The horse Sweet Kiss earned the ominous nickname the Sweet Kiss of Death and never raced again.
Vogue Williams
He won.
Joanne McNally
He won. I forgot.
Vogue Williams
He won.
Joanne McNally
He won. There you go. You're the one holding it. Next time Vogue. You're not winning a horse race. Unalive yourself if you can mid race and you'll steal the show.
Vogue Williams
I'll try. I'll actually try my best.
Joe Attiwell
20 to 1. You'd have made loads of cash. Bet responsibly.
Joanne McNally
Yeah. Had a heart attack in the middle of the race.
Vogue Williams
Jeez. I can't believe he stayed on. That is wild. Maybe he went into.
Joanne McNally
I don't know, maybe he went. What's that happen?
Vogue Williams
When it's gonna say Rick and Morris. Yeah, that's what I was gonna say. Did he. Rigor Morris is pretty great. Rick Morris is still not. Rigor Morris just goes away. I told you this before. So you get rigor Morris as you go all. And then it goes away. Oh God.
Joanne McNally
Gross.
Vogue Williams
I hate.
Joanne McNally
So you can relax in the afterlife. You're not frigid.
Vogue Williams
No, you don't want to be frigid in the afterlife. I saw about another jockey that died recently. It's really sad. It's a very dangerous sport.
Joanne McNally
It is. And it's because they have to keep themselves. It's the. They have to keep themselves so skinny as well. You see. They think because it's put. Puts pressure on their hearts and stuff. Anyway, look.
Vogue Williams
Yeah.
Joanne McNally
Race response.
Vogue Williams
I imagine. Can imagine what the horse that I was riding in that race thought when this nearly six footer came along. He was like, excuse me, what is this thing?
Joanne McNally
No, the horse had bodied a morphe. I was like, I didn't realize it was a Shetland pony. Why have I shrank?
Vogue Williams
Yeah, we'd no chance. We'd no bloody chance. Did you hear Bandana tops are back in.
Joanne McNally
Well, I can't say I'm completely surprised.
Vogue Williams
I've already bought a lilac bandana.
Joanne McNally
Yeah.
Vogue Williams
Yeah. I'm gonna rock it in the summer. That's the one. I think big boob girls. You get loads of other tops. I get bandanas.
Joanne McNally
Yeah.
Vogue Williams
Because I can Tie that around my flat chest.
Joanne McNally
Yeah. No fair bits. Yeah. Do you even need a bandana? We'll just get a roll of tissue paper. It wouldn't even crack.
Vogue Williams
Just two little napkins, just on the front.
Joanne McNally
They're like, there's a topless boy in Battersea.
Vogue Williams
There is nothing that sparks more rage amongst people that follow me on Instagram. As to. When I say I'm a 30D, they can't bear it. They can't bear it.
Joanne McNally
Well, it is. It's. As lies go, you'd usually be. You'd usually want to be able to slightly prove a lie or have some suspension of belief, whereas that's just factually incorrect. It's very visibly fact.
Vogue Williams
Excuse me, sorry. 30D.
Joanne McNally
I don't know if she. I can't tell because you've carried this on for so long now. I can't tell if this is actually real or not real. I don't know. Was it A minus DD? Was it 30 minus?
Vogue Williams
You and I. You and I are going on a date to Marks and Spencer or Victoria's Secret, whichever you'd prefer. And I'm going to get measured in front of you on a date.
Joanne McNally
No, folk, all joking aside, do you actually think you're a 32 double D?
Vogue Williams
No, I'm a 30 D. Joanne, why don't you. Is it you on Instagram who keeps sending me those messages? Is it you slagging my bra size?
Joanne McNally
I put like, oh, no, not even for the part. I'm genuinely curious. What do you actually think you're. Do you think you're not?
Vogue Williams
Joanne, I got measured and it's because at the back is 30, so 30 is like the. The out. Like how far you go out. Like, if you're like a 34, your boots go further. So mine is only a 30, so it's a. A 30D isn't actually a big size. Aha. Yes.
Joanne McNally
Sorry. The Alphabet goes backwards for bras at one point.
Vogue Williams
Is that right, Joanne McNally? Right. I'll finish this with you in the dressing rooms and Marks especially. Well, I will. I'll buy a new. No, you'll buy me the bra I choose. You'll buy me three.
Joanne McNally
Well, I mean, now that I realize how it works and that it's absolutely tiny, I will buy you bra because you're a cheap date.
Vogue Williams
There's no.
Joanne McNally
No material needed. I think that. I think it was you. You suggested it was a double T. Was that what confused people?
Vogue Williams
No, I never suggested that, Sean, because I'm a very honest girl. 30d was all I ever said. And now that poor woman in Marks and Spencer is at risk of losing her job because everyone's complaining.
Joanne McNally
It does sound like a conspiracy theory. But listen, you've got a great rack. Thank you. Is the power insane now? You know the power now. Not the power now isn't that a cartel? But the power. No. I'll bring that book out. I am genuinely pricing. Going to see see the Backstreet Boys in the Sphere in August.
Vogue Williams
Oh, I'd love. Oh, now I. Did you hear your man singing recently, Brian?
Joanne McNally
Oh, they're not going to be singing, are they? I just seem to just be kind of lip syncing and dancing.
Vogue Williams
No, they're trying to do the whole shebang.
Joanne McNally
Oh, then I'll leave it then.
Vogue Williams
Why don't you go? Why don't you go and pretend you didn't have a good time? Like you too.
Joanne McNally
I thought I was going to enjoy Backstreet Boys. I didn't realize it was a vanity project for them where they're actually going to put us through them singing. I just wanted to twirl around and dance. I want it. I just. That's all I wanted.
Vogue Williams
I don't know if you can go. I think I know. In fairness I'd go if it wasn't in Las Vegas because I just. I don't really like Vegas. I've been a few times. I don't love it. It's not really my vibe. It's too far away.
Joanne McNally
It's the sphere though. Vogue. I mean, come on, you gotta see the Sphere.
Vogue Williams
I know, but I think. I think London is gonna make its own sphere again. I'm just putting that out there. I just assume that that would happen. No, I've made that up completely. Doesn't. Wouldn't that make sense that we. Our own sphere? Pitbull could play. I'd go see Pitbull in a sphere. He's.
Joanne McNally
He's playing in Dublin.
Vogue Williams
He's already played. I missed it. And I couldn't see him in London either, which is heartbreaking because I was away.
Joanne McNally
But anyway, he's announced something. Pitbull has announced something?
Vogue Williams
No, Joan, I think. Don't get me excited now because I don't think he has. I think he already did it.
Joe Attiwell
Pitbull is coming back to Ireland after hit Dublin gig.
Joanne McNally
There you go. Fre off.
Vogue Williams
When?
Joe Attiwell
5Th of June.
Vogue Williams
5Th of June. Ah, listen, that's it. That's where I'm going. No, maybe he'll go to London. Look how lazy I get. I'm just like, no, I'm not going to the Sphere. I'll stay in London. They'll make their own people. Nah, not Dublin. I'll wait.
Joanne McNally
I don't know him at all.
Vogue Williams
Mr. Worldwide.
Joanne McNally
It's his first name, Pit. Second name Ball. Or is it like one stage name? What's this one stage?
Vogue Williams
Adjoan.
Joanne McNally
Like Poodle.
Vogue Williams
Exactly. Pitbull. Go listen to him when he goes to the gym and you'll just be like, banger, banger, banger, Banger. Really?
Joanne McNally
Yes. Oh, okay. Okay. I like a banger. Okay.
Joe Attiwell
9Th of June.
Joanne McNally
I've never seen that man before. My life.
Vogue Williams
I can't believe.
Joanne McNally
Have you, Joe?
Vogue Williams
Of course he has. No.
Joe Attiwell
Yeah, not my genre especially, but I'm aware of his work.
Joanne McNally
Yeah.
Vogue Williams
I'm wearing glasses everywhere. There is a better picture of him.
Joanne McNally
Oh, yeah. It's like, go somewhere hungover on the pod. He's obviously using the same tactic. Good for him.
Vogue Williams
He does that song. Jennifer Lopez, get on the Floor. Okay. You're gonna have the best time. Yes.
Joanne McNally
Oh, well, I know that song and I don't. I'm not. I'm not a fan, I have to say. Listen, I'm not the right person to talk about music too. I. I like.
Vogue Williams
I just always try.
Joanne McNally
You're speaking to the woman who's trying to fly to Las Vegas to be back. She, like, I'm the opposite of a muso and I'm. And I'm raging that they're gonna sing. You know, like, I just want to dance. Please don't sing, guys, please. Come on.
Vogue Williams
We've traveled far.
Joanne McNally
Come on, just lip sync. Come on. But so much better. Like, I don't. I don't care about people singing live. I couldn't give a. I don't find it impressive. Like. Sorry. It is impressive. What I'm saying is it doesn't bother me. It doesn't make that they don't.
Vogue Williams
No.
Joanne McNally
I just want to see them twirling around on the stage, music blaring like, full Britney. Britney lip sync, do it like a pro.
Vogue Williams
And then Britney twice lip syncing. And she was brilliant.
Joanne McNally
Yeah, she's great at lip syncing. She. She invented lip sync. And she should be huge on TikTok technically.
Vogue Williams
And she's a really good dancer, so she has to dance.
Joanne McNally
And you can't do both.
Vogue Williams
I know.
Joanne McNally
I can't even walk and sing, let alone dance like a pro.
Vogue Williams
We're expecting too much here. Do you ever get insulted by a dog? I had a weird moment yesterday. I walked by this dog outside A coffee shop. And I really wanted to pet it because it was one of those Bernese mountain dogs, you know those huge do dogs.
Joanne McNally
Yeah, they're great.
Vogue Williams
Which then randomly yesterday, I ended up seeing four of them, one sitting in the back of the car driving in front of me. And it was really weird. It was like they were just going against me. But anyway, I saw this dog in the way and I was like, a bit scarlet because, like, there was three people sitting around a table with this dog. And then the way I literally couldn't help myself, I was like, oh, can I pet your dog? And he was like, yeah. And then the dog, literally, which was lying down, Happy, got up and completely backed away from me. Like my hand was made of hammers. Yeah. I was like, what the hell is going. And it's really embarrassing.
Joanne McNally
I've had that with kids and it's really embarrassing when someone's like, oh, look at your Auntie John. They're like, yeah. Or the second you touch them, they start crying. Yeah.
Vogue Williams
It's so humiliating.
Joanne McNally
I'm a dog gal. They know. They know I'm on their side. Dogs love me. Kids, not so much. I struggle with the kids thing is kind of embarrassing because they're reaching for the parents and then I just want to go you. Then.
Vogue Williams
I don't want to hold you anyway.
Joanne McNally
Yeah, yeah. If the child wants to go back to their parents, let them. Okay? Let them.
Vogue Williams
She's back on this. She's back on.
Joanne McNally
Yeah. See you in the ring, Mal. Can I. Can I wish a happy anniversary to something that's very close to my heart?
Vogue Williams
Yeah.
Joanne McNally
I would like to wish a happy anniversary. It's our first anniversary together. And can I say, since this event took place, my life has been different and significantly better. Happy anniversary to the Willy Wonka Experience. It's a year since it lit up the world with its shiteness and I am just so pleased to see it thriving and surviving. Can I just do a breakdown of where they are all now? Okay. And this is a great example of all press is good press, unless you're the organizers. Then maybe not so much, but this. But the crew, the cast. And we are calling them a cast. We are calling them a cast.
Vogue Williams
They were. It was an acting job.
Joanne McNally
Yeah, it was an acting job. Since there. Since the shambolic event in Glasgow where police were called. It was 35 quid a ticket. They got three jelly beans. Kids are crying. It was carnage.
Vogue Williams
Yeah.
Joanne McNally
Since then there has been. It took off, went viral, as we all know. We all loved it. It was so. It was hilarious and no one was harmed, which is why we can laugh so hard. It's made it onto snl. Sydney. Sydney Sweeney, is it? Sydney Sweeney did a sketch about them on snl. They cracked America. They were in the. There was a huge big article about it in the New York Post. Felicia Dawkins. And here's me working my whole off. Can't get arrested in the States. Had I known, I just would have took part in the Willy Wonka experience. You're one the Sajid Paloompas in la, taking meetings.
Vogue Williams
Shut up. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Joanne McNally
She's in la, so there's a company in LA have recreated us for la. So she's been flown over as, like the special guest. And they're doing it. Exactly. They're given less jelly beans. $45 a ticket to jelly beans. They're gonna make it even shitter than it was the first time. They're absolutely thrilled themselves. All these really famous comedians are involved. Americans love us. She's in LA taking meetings. She's networking. She's been signed. She thinks she's gonna get a job as a children's TV presenter.
Vogue Williams
Signed by who? A children's TV presenter. She looks so sad.
Joanne McNally
I know, but she's lit up since then. It was. She was having a shit day at the office, clearly. Chrissy Teigen is a huge fan of hers. Her name is Kirsty Patterson. Right. So she's.
Vogue Williams
So she's doing.
Joanne McNally
She's got. I assume she's got. I don't actually know. Assume she's Scottish. Timothy Chalamet has expressed. I laughed when I read this. An interest in going to the event. When I read that, I thought he was going to be in it. They're like. But all he. All Timothy has to express is an interest for it to make the paper. He's like, I might go. I was like, Timothy Charlemagne might go.
Vogue Williams
Huge news.
Joanne McNally
And then. And she. And Kirsty's been wheeled in as, like, the special guest. She's doing a big Q A with them and all the meet and greets for her. I know. And then the other one, Felicia Dawkins. Felicia Dawkins. She played the character of the unknown. Do you remember that? The kind of no nose work. There was no unknown character in Willy Wonka. She was basically dressed in a black overall. She kind of looked like a banshee. It was like a witchy vibe. And she would just pop her head out from behind a mirror. It was quite underwhelming, really, to be honest. But it was just one of the many disasters of the Willy Wonka experience. She now is after making a fortune on Cameo. She's rinsing the cash.
Vogue Williams
Yeah, yeah, yeah. The other one would be on Cameo. They would make so much money.
Joanne McNally
I'm assuming she is, but I guess the article thought that it was a bigger win that she was taking meetings in la.
Vogue Williams
Well, I mean, I can't. I'll just say I'm. I'm a little bit jealous.
Joanne McNally
Well, I haven't met my American agent in about a year. He's probably signed her.
Vogue Williams
He's. No time for you anymore.
Joanne McNally
No time for me.
Vogue Williams
Busy making cash from Willy Wonka Stand up.
Joanne McNally
Out. Willy Wonka in. Yeah. Anyway, congratulations to the ladies. We love to see it. We love to see it. And if anyone is in la, please go. Please go to this event and let us know how it goes. And sorry, if it ever goes to Dublin or London, please call me. I would love to take part.
Vogue Williams
I will take a job and then maybe you might be moved to the American one. Do a job here. You might get access to the American one.
Joanne McNally
I'd love to be the unknown. Like, it broke her career. And you know what, as well, when those women turned up the day that they were like. They were probably. It was probably the lowest point in their lives. Well, maybe not taking into consideration, like, family deaths and stuff, but, I mean, you only turn up on a job. I've turned up on jobs. I'm like, oh, for sake.
Vogue Williams
Can you imagine how many jobs I've turned up on? And I'm like, yeah, you're like, I need to dress up as this today for. Yeah, all right, fine, I'll do.
Joanne McNally
We thought. We thought you'd actually act out the beaver, Joanne. Excuse me. That kind of stuff. Yeah. Could you. Have you. Could you kind of perform as a beaver? It wasn't a beaver. Sorry. It was a chip. Chipmunk. It was a chipmunk. We thought you'd actually physically. I was like. I thought it was just a voiceover. No, no, no, no. We'd like you to physically move like a chipmunk.
Vogue Williams
The hell are you talking about?
Joanne McNally
The arts folk? I'm talking about the arts, baby. This is what it is.
Vogue Williams
Oh, stop. I'm so glad there was no camera phones around when we were younger. The stuff that we had to do.
Joanne McNally
There's great highs and then there's great loves.
Vogue Williams
Did you ever go to acting skill where you had to just, like, be a fruit? I've been an orange. I've been A banana. Like, yeah, that was in the gaily school of acting as well. So I thought that I had hit the jackpot that I was able to pay to go to this acting school. And then it turned out that I was spending much of the day becoming a fruit.
Joanne McNally
That is hilarious.
Vogue Williams
I'm not sure how it helped my acting career. I did, I went to RADA one summer and I was doing like battle. So we had to do this like it was a Shakespeare, it's a Shakespearean based acting course. And I had to do like battle. We had to pretend to battle each other with wooden swords and stuff.
Joanne McNally
Yeah, of course. You gotta have the skills.
Vogue Williams
I'm very skilled in Shakespearean battle, thank you very much.
Joanne McNally
Yeah, you're like, you're gonna be cast as a battling Blueberry. Like it all makes sense now. Everything I've done has come to this moment.
Vogue Williams
They did Gladiator 2, if they ever did Braveheart 2. I'm there. I know how to use a wooden sword.
Joanne McNally
Yeah. So you can do, you can do Braveheart 2 or Gladiator 3 and I will do Willy Wonka 2 wherever it's taking place. And I guarantee it'll be more beneficial doing the Willy Wonka show. Tell you. Look, ask Paul Masco. You're what? This woman, Felicia Dawson is probably getting more meetings than Paul is now. And he did Gladiator too.
Vogue Williams
I don't, I haven't seen Gladiator 2, but I have been told not to see it.
Joanne McNally
Well, it's only that. It's only that it went up against Gladiator 1.
Vogue Williams
Gladiator?
Joanne McNally
No, no, no, no, no. It went, it went up against Wicked.
Vogue Williams
Well, it's not, that's not really why it's, it was, it was not nearly as good as Gladiator. I heard. I haven't seen it, but anyone who I know who has watched it did not enjoy.
Joanne McNally
Well, look, we're Paul mascot. We, we unconditionally support always the Irish. So we're like, it's a five star for me.
Vogue Williams
I, I listen, I don't think Paul Masco's having any problems since Gladiator 2. He's doing pretty well for himself.
Joanne McNally
Is he? I haven't heard much from him now, to be honest.
Joe Attiwell
Manchester 8th of June, Amsterdam, 15th of June.
Joanne McNally
I'm going to Amsterdam in the summer on my backpacking comedy trip. Maybe over there at the same time. Maybe you'll come to my show, huh? I meant to say this to you. So do you remember before I was saying that I bumped into Leo Varakker. One of our old spinning T shocks. Yeah. And he had no memory of me. He showed no awareness of my existence. And I was kind of a bit shocked and offended because in my head we were bestow mates in the DMs, right? And I was like, what happened? What happened? Anyway, Leo messaged me again on Instagram. Yes, Joanne, how are you batting off.
Vogue Williams
All these famous people? You won't have time for plebs like us.
Joanne McNally
I mean, we're Irish famous. You know yourself, there's no such thing.
Vogue Williams
Really.
Joanne McNally
Everyone's just. We're just all plebs, really. Everyone's. It's just everyone's a pleb. Anyway, Leo reached out. He was in. Leo is in the DMs. And he was like, joanne, I wasn't actually manning my own Instagram account. I apologize. Which of course he was like, it was a woman. So of course that made sense that she had somehow tracked the podcast and the story and everything. Leo's oblivious to this completely. Meanwhile, I think I'm in groomed by the T shock. I'm absolutely thrilled with myself. It wasn't him at all.
Vogue Williams
So he didn't follow me. He's not actually following me out of want of following me.
Joanne McNally
Well, he is. He is now by default because she's. Because he's not the spin and Taoiseachock anymore. So she's now gone. So he's now manning his own. He's now like just back to Plebland. So he's manning his own. But he was like, look, I wasn't me manning my Instagram. Which, you know, in fairness, kind of makes sense. Taoiseach wasn't actually DMing me personally wishing me the best to look with the Prosecco Express. I. I mean, when you put up to him, when you put your real life lens on, maybe I wasn't a priority for him at the time and he wasn't actually going to come into the vicar street and stand in the wings and wave me on like I suggested he did. No, of course it was a woman called Neeve.
Vogue Williams
Joanne, can you imagine how weird he felt with you? Probably a few drinks in running up to him insisting that you were. Yeah, well, it's. It's always nice to be brought back down to earth, isn't it? Like no one gives a about us. No.
Joanne McNally
Oh, not only do not give a, but there was at one point I was like, he's going to call security or something. Really? I mean, he looked like he felt unsafe.
Vogue Williams
Well, I'm actually glad that you have cleared that up. That's a good thing to have cleared up.
Joanne McNally
It's still disappointing not to be known by the T shock, but I guess it makes sense. Well, I remember he certainly knows who I am now.
Vogue Williams
Well, you know, and he's frightened him.
Joanne McNally
On his security team. Very aware.
Vogue Williams
Oh, crap. Here she is again.
Joanne McNally
Yeah. Blocking me off.
Vogue Williams
I think. I think that we like a politician sometimes. Like when we bumped into Mihal Martin. We found a very. Another T shock of Ireland and we bumped into spinach.
Joanne McNally
Yeah.
Vogue Williams
And I think that we kind of get like. There's certain pictures of people that I'll get from my mom to be like.
Joanne McNally
Look, mom, do you remember the night we met? Were you there with the night we met me on Martin or was I on my own? Was that. Was I on my own?
Vogue Williams
No, I was with you.
Joanne McNally
Yeah. We've done the late late. And you know what happened that night as well. So I know this is a testament to. So a lot of these male politicians have female. I don't know what they are. I think they're female social media managers or social media managers. Right. So. So me and Martin's buzzing past the door at the green room. The late lady, he's on the way out. And then suddenly he. I was like, I didn't say anything. And then suddenly he kind of did a 180 and he came back in. He's like, hi, girls. And we did the photo of. But I heard his. Whether she's his publisher, social media. She want me, homie Hook. I'm gonna get a photo with the girls.
Vogue Williams
Couldn't give a shit. I wanted the picture.
Joanne McNally
No, of course not. But this is what the gas thing is. These men are completely clueless to our existence. But they're female employees or I don't know what they are. Are aware. And they're like, go in. So they're being. These men are being led and guided by these women. So it's just good to know. It's good to know. Keep us humble.
Vogue Williams
It's good to know. But it kind of makes me feel bad about myself a little bit too. But anyway. Yeah.
Joanne McNally
Yeah, indeed. What a powerful end to that message is good night in Irish Joe. Just in case. I thought she was saying something that related in any way to our conversation. She absolutely was not. That's what I have to say about that.
Vogue Williams
Huh?
Joanne McNally
Stick that in your pipe and smoke it.
Vogue Williams
Did you hear about your one last week? See the state of Joanne on Saturday?
Joanne McNally
You got to keep the language alive, Joe. We're grail goers. We're just absolutely, we're resuscitating the language one up at a time. Did you see that little Ukrainian kid?
Vogue Williams
I know he was. There's a, there's a child. I've watched it. You told me about it yesterday. There's a child who came over from Ukraine because of the war and he came to live here and now he is fluent in Irish. Fluent. Joe. John, we should be ashamed of ourselves.
Joanne McNally
It is embarrassing. Yeah, it's embarrassing. He's really making the effort. Like I wouldn't, like I. If I moved, where would I maybe learn the language of?
Vogue Williams
You wouldn't be arist. You could live in France for 100 years and you wouldn't even say more than bon.
Joanne McNally
I'd be in. I could move to Portugal. I'd love to move to Portugal. And I would literally be sitting there like I, like I. I would never even learn the language. And this child is now fluent in Irish. It's amazing.
Vogue Williams
It's amazing.
Joanne McNally
Yeah, yeah. Joe, you should make an effort. Joke.
Joe Attiwell
Is it on Duolingo? I can start. I can.
Vogue Williams
If you don't come on to this next pod and. And introduce yourself as dear Gwich, that will be it. Isn't that right, Joanne?
Joanne McNally
Yes. Please get your hair done or something. No idea what we're talking about.
Vogue Williams
I love those wings. Down the road, just before we move on.
Joanne McNally
You know, my father did that. Preston man, Englishman, Lancashire man. He learned Irish, God rest his northern cell. He learned Irish when he. Because do you know what? He moved to Ireland to marry my mother and when he had two Irish kids. He knew that the primary school system in Ireland is very like, Irish based. And he worries that he wouldn't be able to help us with our homework and all this stuff. And because you have to, you have to be able to do it. You have to do Irish in the leaving and the junior, unless you have like an exemption. And so he learned Irish. Isn't that so sweet?
Vogue Williams
That's really nice. That's like. I know, like learning bloody algebra again, because once I get past multiplication, I don't know anything else.
Joanne McNally
So we've met, we've been very clear in the education system. The fractions. Please tell a young girl what her period is. We've been very clear. That's where the confusion is. We've spent three weeks now trying to figure out what the that is.
Vogue Williams
And I know now. And now I've got my period. I'm like, oh, hello, you. E O. I know what you are. In Japan, there's a service that can help you disappear overnight. Thousands now also by the way Japan. I was watching this whole thing on Japan yesterday. Came up on my Instagram. They only have like only 4% of the country is overweight. 4%. Whoa. That is like they have all these like in the schools they, the kids have to eat fresh food made on the day and they have a head nutritionist of each school teaching people about food. It's in Japan have it like sorted.
Joanne McNally
And then I seem to have it sorted. They seem to have it sorted. And Scandinavian countries seem to have a quite sort.
Vogue Williams
Anyway, so thousands of people choose to disappear leaving behind jobs, debts and relationships known as jatsu, which translates to evaporated people. They erase their past with the help of night moving companies. I just thought that was Kevin Carey could get himself a new job.
Joanne McNally
Kevin car from Caroline.
Vogue Williams
Yeah, he should go, he should go to Japan and start moving people at night. He want to disappear.
Joanne McNally
I think that's called trafficking.
Vogue Williams
But sure that's what they have. Night moving company. So people disappear in the middle of night and they take all that crap.
Joanne McNally
I wonder, do people so people like that say, say you have an outstanding mortgage and you're living in your life in Japan and you go, do you know what I'm actually going to do? I've decided I'm going to disappear. Is it to get life insurance like that guy in the canoe or is it to just avoid the debt? Does the debt get written off? Does the deck get passed down?
Vogue Williams
Well, the hate will.
Joanne McNally
Where's the house?
Vogue Williams
So the house, the, the bank would just take your house back if you're not paying your mortgage. So they don't really care because they're going to get the. What they're going to be owed anyway. But this just seems like people who are having a tough time in life, they're like, they're like, you know what? I want a fresh start. I just want to start all over again.
Joanne McNally
One of the best pieces of advice I was. And listen, I'm. I'm not against it. I love. There's fresh start and then there's burning your life down. Getting into the back of a truck at night and having a new identity.
Vogue Williams
Calling the night movers and saying hello, yeah, yeah.
Joanne McNally
Burning your password and getting a new one. That's, there's, that's not really. That's not like give me your new. It's a bit more than that.
Vogue Williams
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Joanne McNally
But I remember someone saying to me once before and I was like, it's so true. Because just like sometimes you can fantasize about going into the countryside on your own and living off the land making jams. But he said to me, he's like, no matter where you are, that's where. No matter where you go, that's where you are. So just because you physically move space, you still have all your own thoughts and anxieties and all that stuff. And it really stuck with me because it's true.
Vogue Williams
But I suppose it's just for people who literally just want to be a new version of themselves. Like, they might have up their lives load. So they just want to go. Like, the guy you're talking about, John Darwin, he faked his death on the canoe. That was in 2002. And then he wanted the life insurance. His wife, but they had kids and everything. And then eventually, like, he was exposed for. And it's fraudulent.
Joanne McNally
The kids didn't speak to her. I don't know if they still do. They might. I think they maybe start speaking to her again because she told. They had to mourn. They.
Vogue Williams
No.
Joanne McNally
Their mother stood and looked in their face like, your dad's dead. And they had a funeral. Not. And he was living in her wardrobe.
Vogue Williams
Do you remember?
Joanne McNally
He was in the wardrobe.
Vogue Williams
Do you know what I'm gonna do right now? I'm gonna. I'm gonna download Duolingo, so shut up. I'm gonna learn French. There was a new fella. It's a copycat kayaker Ryan. Bog Wars. I mean, he was probably.
Joanne McNally
I'd start a new life with my name. With Bogworth. Terrible name. Jesus Christ. Yeah. I'd collapse my canoe.
Vogue Williams
Continue this life as bat.
Joanne McNally
Rising the ashes like as a burn or McNally or something strong.
Vogue Williams
What's your man's name? Bruce Bog Trotter. I always hated that name as well. From Matilda. Awful name. Poor Bruce. And so this fella, basically, he's a married father of three, and he faked his own death and fled the country. Then they knew. Authorities knew that he had been plotting his disappearance because he took out a 375, 000 insurance. 375, 000 insurance policy and then bought airline gift cards. He was really quite crap about it. And then here I know it was. And like he was doing stuff on his computer where it's like, oh, how can you disappear? How? Like you know that. Well, it's like how to decompose a dead body. Like, it's like, now we know you murdered them.
Joanne McNally
Yeah.
Vogue Williams
You know that you did that now. So this fella kind of did but he's 50. There was a 54 day search for his body and then eventually they found him and he is going on trial. But he has three kids.
Joanne McNally
Sorry. Imagine trying to start a new life and then buying. That's like. That's like me starting a new life and then checking into a hotel in Madeira or something. Like we can visibly see that we can track you.
Vogue Williams
I'd last about a day before I started posting stuff on Instagram being like, hey, best life.
Joanne McNally
New life, new me. Collabing with the traffic. Yeah, traffic for free in exchange for three, three story posts in a grid.
Vogue Williams
Do you know you're. You're a man from the little boy from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Because I know that you now love Willy Wonka. He basically decided he didn't want to act anymore after that movie and he kind of disappeared. He went off to. To learn how to dentist and now he's living life as a dentist.
Joanne McNally
Yeah, good for everyone. But the training that goes into like, look at you. Learn how to be a fruit and then to not use it. Apparently they kind of break you down in drama school and sometimes they forget to build you back up. A lot of people said they find it really hard.
Vogue Williams
Do you want to see me be an orange?
Joanne McNally
Yeah. For the listeners who can't see, she's doing absolutely nothing.
Vogue Williams
She's just, well, what else do oranges do?
Joanne McNally
What else do they do with their.
Vogue Williams
Eyes closed and you can't smell me. I'm emitting scent of orange. Scent of do it again.
Joanne McNally
Do it again. I'm not gonna lie. That's giving banana.
Vogue Williams
Oh, it. I went into banana. I meant to do orange.
Joanne McNally
Speaking of looking for things, can I please bring up up my favorite topic?
Vogue Williams
Yeah. What have you lost?
Joanne McNally
I didn't lose it, but it is lost. Malaysian Airlines, they've opened it up again. I. I'm sorry, they're going back in Britain is going looking for it now. Some company and if they find it, they're getting £70 million. They're going back. I know. Get your snorkel out, baby, let's go. It's at the Indian Ocean, Socks. We'll be in a sea for a while.
Vogue Williams
This stuff scares the out of me. I can't. I flew back here on Sunday and I was having such a meltdown on the flight. The arrows destined to come over and she's like, don't worry, it's just turbulence. And I was like. And then when I hear stuff like this, it reminds me. Tin can in the air.
Joanne McNally
I can tell you now if they find that plane, I'll have to take a week off. I will be bet into that story. So they're finally, if they, they're saying this is the last time they'll look for it. This is.
Vogue Williams
They're safe million though. But that's going to cost them a fortune to try and look for it. And I don't think. Oh yeah, it all have been swept away at the bottom. Unless it's like a Titanic Vogue.
Joanne McNally
Please. The black box. We're looking for the black box. And when they went, I think that.
Vogue Williams
That'S going to be disintegrated. Now at this stage.
Joanne McNally
You'Re going to feel very silly when they find the black box because the black box is made of stuff that is indestructible. Now my opinion is would you not make the whole plane of the same ship? But anyway, apparently it won't fly if it's me. But the black box is indestructible. That's the point of the black box. So get it. I hope they find records, everything that was discussed. Because the big debate with Malaysian Airlines is was it a mass murder? Did he do it on purpose or was it a mistake, an accident? I believe it to be a mass murder.
Vogue Williams
Me too. Oh, I believe it to be a mass murder as well. He did definitely what happened, but we don't know.
Joanne McNally
And his family are like, he never would have done it. And they're gonna find that black box and it's gonna be, it's going to be. It's basically one of the biggest, biggest mystery in aviation history, but also one of the biggest mysteries in all history outside of aviation. And if they find that black box, well, well, well, I'll be gone.
Vogue Williams
Listen, I hope they find the black box. Of course. I think it will be really good for the families and really good for us who have been dying to find it. Yeah, and really good for my anxieties.
Joanne McNally
Right?
Vogue Williams
No, it won't be good for my entire flying, but it will be good. But I don't, I just, I think.
Joanne McNally
Of the Netflix series. Think of the Netflix series. Think of the Netflix series.
Vogue Williams
There's going to be a Netflix series regardless of whether they box or not.
Joanne McNally
But they imagine if they find it and then we'll have the answers. There's no answers now. It's just this huge big question mark.
Vogue Williams
Okay. Do you think that they're going to find it realistically?
Joanne McNally
I'm hoping. I'm gonna, I'm, I'm hoping ring. I'm sending them all My love, you.
Vogue Williams
Know what you should do? Say a prayer to St. Anthony.
Joanne McNally
Say pray.
Vogue Williams
Yeah, yeah.
Joanne McNally
Patron saint. A lost. Yeah, yeah.
Vogue Williams
Although he never found my ring for me three years ago, so. Well, maybe he's not doing a good job either.
Joanne McNally
Well, maybe he's gonna. Maybe because he's putting all his energy into trying to find a plane in the Indian Ocean. Vogue. Okay. He's obviously flat out.
Vogue Williams
Well, he's not doing a great job of that either. I'm just saying. Okay, thank you either. Well.
Joanne McNally
Well, no, because that's the correct. That's the correct use of it, which we don't.
Vogue Williams
Well, it's not night time, so. It's not.
Joanne McNally
Well, they don't. The listener doesn't know that. Now you look.
Vogue Williams
I don't.
Joanne McNally
Which was. It was. It was. It was not what we wanted.
Vogue Williams
I don't think we once used it in the correct way.
Joanne McNally
Joe, what are you Googling there? You look like you're reading something.
Joe Attiwell
I've done my first duolingo in Irish. I've done it. I muted my microphone. I've just done it.
Vogue Williams
Sorry, we're in the middle of working.
Joanne McNally
Really?
Joe Attiwell
Record Joe T Agus Shukra.
Joanne McNally
Yeah, very good. Actually.
Vogue Williams
Yeah, that's not. That's not too bad.
Joanne McNally
Yeah, that's actually not bad.
Vogue Williams
Look at me. Joanne, sign up Parlay Francais.
Joanne McNally
And we're all signing up to learn a language. Are we?
Vogue Williams
Ah, maybe we should concentrate on Irish, actually. How dare I go for French first. Let's go back to Irish. Yeah, let's have a language competition and see who's fluent in something first.
Joanne McNally
People don't see us as Irish, even in Ireland. I think it'd be very controversial.
Vogue Williams
Did you ever know this language? Do you remember that? Backslang. Did you ever know that?
Joanne McNally
No.
Vogue Williams
How did you not know that? From dorky. You never knew Backslang. No, that is an ehowa now. See you later.
Joanne McNally
What? What's back? Slang.
Vogue Williams
Me and Armory used to literally sit in front of my parents and call them ourselves in this language. And they would never know what we were saying.
Joanne McNally
Little mad bastards.
Vogue Williams
Oh, we were great. Absolutely berserk, we were.
Joanne McNally
Look at that. Anything to plug folk. I would like to plug my new standard for penophile, which is around Ireland and the uk and now the continent. I've got Antwerp, Oslo, Berlin, Amsterdam. Sell that. We're going to add another one. Lisbon, Barcelona, Bergen, Stockholm, copenhagen, then the UK around. Please join Joann mcnally.com for all tickets. Please join.
Vogue Williams
I will join. And I am actually on a little mini book tour. I'm only doing two dates. I'm doing one in 26th of May in Vicar street and the 27th of May in Union Chapel.
Joanne McNally
Very fun.
Vogue Williams
Did you leave?
Joanne McNally
That's a great room.
Vogue Williams
Baker Street.
Joanne McNally
No, I took the lights. I did an Erlingus lounge vibe from what you did. I did that there.
Podcast Summary: "Oíche Mhaith, 30D & Let Them Off"
Episode Details:
In this lively episode of My Therapist Ghosted Me, hosts Vogue Williams, Joanne McNally, and Joe Attiwell dive into a whirlwind of topics ranging from self-help theories to personal anecdotes, celebrity encounters, and even aviation mysteries. Their candid and humorous approach ensures a rich and engaging conversation filled with insightful moments and relatable experiences.
Timestamp: [00:15 - 03:25]
The episode kicks off with a discussion about Mel Robbins, a prominent self-help author and podcast host known for her "Let Them" theory. Joanne explains the concept:
"If someone wants to break up with you, let them. If someone wants to not invite you to a party, let them. If someone wants to fuck you over, let them. Yeah, exactly. And thank them. Send a thank you card for not interfering with your life." ([01:46])
Vogue humorously critiques the theory, likening it to a modern stoicism approach:
"It's basically fuck them. It's fuck them." ([02:26])
They explore the challenges of applying this theory in real-life situations, highlighting the emotional difficulty of truly letting go and not reacting impulsively.
Timestamp: [04:37 - 07:06]
Transitioning from self-help theories, the trio delves into personal strategies for managing anxiety. Vogue shares her struggles with her therapist's "flow thing," a type of breath work designed to calm anxious spirals:
"It's basically about, like, releasing stuff. And, like, they all, like, stand for something. I tried to Google it there. I have it written down in my journal at home." ([04:48])
Joanne and Vogue discuss the effectiveness and difficulties of implementing breath work techniques, touching on popular methods like the Wim Hof breathing technique and its intense physical effects:
"Like hyperventilating on purpose. You flood your blood with oxygen and it makes you feel all wooey and sort of bit drunk." ([06:24])
Joe adds humor by demonstrating his attempt at learning Irish through Duolingo, highlighting the group's lighthearted take on self-improvement efforts.
Timestamp: [07:06 - 09:28]
A bizarre yet fascinating story emerges as Joanne recounts the tale of Frank Hayes, the only jockey to finish a horse race posthumously:
"Frank Hayes remains the only jockey to win a race posthumously. The horse Sweet Kiss earned the ominous nickname the Sweet Kiss of Death and never raced again." ([07:54])
Vogue expresses disbelief:
"How the hell did he manage to stay on?" ([08:09])
The hosts humorously speculate on the scenario, imagining the horse's perspective and the implications of a jockey's sudden demise mid-race. This segment balances eerie intrigue with comedic banter.
Timestamp: [09:28 - 12:34]
The conversation shifts to a playful debate about bra sizes, with Vogue defending her 30D size amidst humorous skepticism from Joanne:
"When I say I'm a 30D, they can't bear it. They can't bear it." ([10:18])
Joanne challenges the authenticity of the size, sparking a light-hearted exchange about body image and societal perceptions. The discussion underscores the hosts' ability to tackle personal topics with humor and honesty.
Timestamp: [12:34 - 27:57]
Joanne shares her amusing experience with Leo Varadkar, the Taoiseach of Ireland, who appeared oblivious to her presence despite their interactions:
"He wasn't manning his own Instagram account. I apologize. Which of course he was like, it was a woman. So of course that made sense that she had somehow tracked the podcast and the story and everything." ([26:05])
Vogue and Joanne humorously discuss the challenges of fame, social media misunderstandings, and the gap between public personas and personal interactions. They also touch on their own minor celebrity status in Ireland, highlighting the humorous side of being recognized (or not) by famous figures.
Timestamp: [17:58 - 25:26]
A significant portion of the episode is dedicated to reflecting on the Willy Wonka Experience, a viral event that gained cult status despite its chaotic execution:
"It's our first anniversary together. And can I say, since this event took place, my life has been different and significantly better. Happy anniversary to the Willy Wonka Experience." ([18:07])
Joanne and Vogue recount the event's madness, its unexpected rise to fame, and its impact on the participants. They discuss how the experience has led to opportunities for the cast members, including media appearances and lucrative gigs, all while maintaining a humorous tone about the event's initial failures and subsequent success.
Timestamp: [30:09 - 41:32]
The hosts pivot to a more serious and anxiety-inducing topic: the ongoing search for the missing Malaysian Airlines flight and its elusive black box. They express their concerns and hopes for the resolution of this aviation mystery:
"It's one of the biggest mysteries in aviation history, but also one of the biggest mysteries in all history outside of aviation." ([40:07])
Vogue shares her anxieties related to flying and the unsettled nature of the missing plane:
"I hope they find the black box. Of course. I think it will be really good for the families and really good for us who have been dying to find it. Yeah, and really good for my anxieties." ([40:24])
Joanne adds her perspective on the human aspect of the tragedy, contemplating the motivations behind the disappearance and the profound impact on the families involved.
Timestamp: [41:39 - 43:37]
Transitioning back to lighter topics, the trio discusses their efforts in language learning, reminiscing about childhood games like Backslang:
"Me and Armory used to literally sit in front of my parents and call them ourselves in this language. And they would never know what we were saying." ([42:25])
They encourage each other to embrace their cultural heritage by learning Irish, blending humor with genuine interest in preserving language skills.
Timestamp: [43:22 - End]
In their final moments, Joanne promotes her upcoming book tour, sharing excitement about engaging with audiences in various cities:
"Please join Joannmcnally.com for all tickets." ([42:53])
Vogue adds her own promotional activities, teasing future episodes and live shows. The hosts wrap up the episode on a high note, balancing personal stories with promotional content seamlessly.
