0:02Vogue Williams:This is a Global Player original podcast.

0:10Vogue Williams:Hello and welcome to the bonus episode, which is quite chaotic and feels more like a main.

0:15Joanne McNally:There was no solid thoughts there. The main we do, we do kind of force ourselves to have a solid thought about something culturally topically interesting. This was just loosey-goosey. What's going on?

0:25Vogue Williams:Oh my God, I saw the weirdest, the weirdest thing in the world happen to me this week.

0:30Joanne McNally:Jesus.

0:32Vogue Williams:I'm still shooketh from it. So, I'm sitting in Soho House. Okay. Having a meeting. And who walks by me?

0:44Joanne McNally:Can I guess? Can I guess? Cliff Richard? No.

0:49Vogue Williams:You'll never guess. It's totally outrageous. You'll never guess it. Vogue.

0:54Joanne McNally:less of that please okay if that's the attitude speak to each other positively please

1:00Vogue Williams:positive language yeah yeah okay

1:03Joanne McNally:um Sonia Sullivan

1:05Vogue Williams:this is a really fun game okay you've only got three word guesses because we have to do an actual pod um

1:12Joanne McNally:man or woman man Cillian Murphy no Barry Keoghan no did you see Barry Keoghan he had his lips done

1:22Vogue Williams:I think there is natural lips I think they're not. Should we chuck an allegedly on there? Sorry, Barry. An allegedly. No, because it's been... And then I saw there was a whole thing and it said Channing Tatum and everything. All the men are getting their lips done. Of course they are. It's called moisturizing. Okay, go on. No, one more guess.

1:38Joanne McNally:Jamiroquai.

1:41Vogue Williams:I'd always like you to be with him. I just don't know what's your type. I'm like, one minute's Benicio Del Toro.

1:47Joanne McNally:Jamiroquai. Has he rebranded as J.K.? Well, that was the name of the band. Jamiroquai's the band. J.K. Oh, sorry. Come here. Just remind me, I want to come back to the fact that is it true Kanye is doing the bar exams to piss off Kim? We'll answer that later on in the podcast. Oh, that's it. Yeah, I think he's trying to do the bar. He's like, I'm going to finish what she started.

2:10Vogue Williams:Oh my God, that is like, that is literally like something I would do. Yes.

2:15Joanne McNally:Sorry. Okay, Vogue, who was it?

2:19Vogue Williams:Joe Attywell. I couldn't believe my eyes. A Joe in the wild. I was like...

2:26Joanne McNally:I was taking meetings. The call was coming from inside the house. I had no idea. Joe, do you mind me asking? How the fuck did you get a membership for Soho House? Well, he was taken out for a look.

2:38Vogue Williams:For anyone who's not a media arsehole, Soho House is a members club. It's for media people. I don't have a membership there. I was meeting TV people, yeah.

2:49Joanne McNally:Joe you know I'm teasing you I think you belong there more than me and Vogue combined

2:53Vogue Williams:Joe doesn't belong there and neither do we I hate to tell you I just listen it's really hard to get a membership so when you get one you kind of don't want to let it go and I haven't been like this that was my second time there that's I used it twice in a whole year but I'm like what if I let it go Vogue was stuffing away sausages you see she was just sat in the door making sausages I was meeting

3:14Joanne McNally:meeting I was meeting these fagiches

3:18Vogue Williams:but I knew them so I was like I fucking I'll have sausages I know her Sarah I've known her for ages so I was like Sarah but they were very judgmental of the sausages they're like you got a side of sausages I was like yes I did yes okay do you want to know the game

3:32Joanne McNally:it's always a weird side of you oh sorry just on the Soho house of it all and it is a kind of a members members club it's lovely yeah this is my first time

3:42Vogue Williams:there that was a nice one Joanne you'd like that one which one 180 the Strand they had a gym I went to the gym

3:49Joanne McNally:yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah but the it's for creatives I say in inverted commas like TV blah blah blah because I remember but a club when I when I was when I first moved to the UK when I first moved to London obviously I wanted in I wanted in and I was interviewed and turned down oh no yeah what they actually brought me in for like to meet me face to face and then the application was just never accepted. Now it has been since because then they opened extra houses and I think then they were like, right, if it's a numbers game. But I was seeing this guy who was in finance and he was asking, could I get him in?

4:29Joanne McNally:And I was like, I can't fucking get you in anywhere. But I didn't realise, they don't let any of the finance bros in because they're, but it's the same as, you know, O'Sheen who runs the Davonshire pub in Soho, the Irish pub. So he is a back room for inverted commas creatives as well and apparently some big footballer tried to get it. Now this is the story whether this is true or not I don't know I think that I heard like Ronaldo trying to go into the back of the Devonshire and Ocean was like no creatives only and it was just me and some lad playing a fiddle down the back that's the story now whether it's true or not I don't know

5:04Vogue Williams:do you know what the BAFTAs right there is in the line that I was in where Leonardo DiCaprio touched me and we fell in love and got married that line isn't for everybody so like I was standing in that line with Spenny and some people got turned away that I would have recognized but they got turned away and but me and Spenny were in the line and I was like please can we get out of the line and he was like no we're in the line I was like yeah but I just feel like I shouldn't

5:29Joanne McNally:be in this line like who what if someone comes what pricks like that is so mean if someone's in the line just let them do whatever they need to do they didn't take the phone out they didn't pull

5:41Vogue Williams:us out of the line okay I'm just I'm just putting that out there in case the daily mail said that we got pulled out of line. We probably, listen, it didn't feel like I should have been in the line.

5:49Joanne McNally:You're moving up, Sugar Puff. You are moving up. You are on the move. I, so is Joe. Strolling around Soho House.

5:58Vogue Williams:Hang on, I've got another one for you. I can't stress enough, I shouldn't have been there. It was a busy day in Soho House. I would have ordered a coffee off you, Joe.

6:05Joanne McNally:I would have been like, Joe, while you're there, would you mind taking an order?

6:09Vogue Williams:I asked him for a side of sausages. More sausages.

6:17Vogue Williams:okay i bumped into another person there embarrassingly the person that you're going to say is someone that actually the meeting i was at i should have invited that person to that

6:25Joanne McNally:meeting and i didn't and then i saw him is this yeah is this pod chatter is this just an internal communications chat for us no it was just such an it was so unusual i was just okay i'm in okay five okay man or woman man um would they be known to our listeners the name yeah yeah lots of time Is it your husband? No. Is it Otto? No.

6:47Vogue Williams:Yeah, he was just there.

Read the full transcript

6:49Joanne McNally:I'd say they've offered him a membership already. They've probably given him mine.

6:52Vogue Williams:He's got the under 27s. That's why we only go on Sundays so that then Otto pays its half price. I need a bit of guidance. I don't know.

6:58Joanne McNally:You know this person very well. I don't want to clog up the whole bonus of me guessing because I'm not good. Rick!

7:04Vogue Williams:It was Rick. Do you want to? I was like, and I didn't even, I literally, because I was sitting there on my throne looking at him and I was like, Rick! Was he there with his golden child, Kevin Bridges? But the reason it was embarrassing is because I was having a meeting with Rick, your agent's other client, Joel Domit, and I should have invited Rick to that meeting, but I didn't because I just thought Rick couldn't be arsed. And Joanne, I felt bad because then we don't take Jo for lunch and they were taking Jo for lunch and 180 the stride. We only ever dangle sushi samba in front of him and it never happens.

7:36Vogue Williams:Jo doesn't eat, Vogue.

7:38Joanne McNally:He's a robot.

7:40Vogue Williams:We just charge him in the evening.

7:41Joanne McNally:you didn't come round

7:43Vogue Williams:to Joanne's house that night we had a party

7:45Joanne McNally:we charge him in the evening and sometimes we overcharge him that's why his hair sticks up

13:27Vogue Williams:she had come from Kent or something on a train lost it at Kent station her train was delayed so she didn't have time to go. It fell in between the tracks and the train. So she didn't have time to go and buy a new pair of shoes before the event. And so she strutted into the Savoy.

13:44Joanne McNally:Hardcore.

13:45Vogue Williams:With one shoe. I went around at the event for like four hours just with one heel on. It was amazing.

13:53Joanne McNally:That's when you know you've made it. When you can walk into the Savoy and the butlers and all are like welcome Lady Lisette. And they're not going who's this scum with one fucking shoe on it. Yeah. That's when you know. When you When you can underdress in a super posh place and they leave you alone. That's the idea you've made it.

14:13Vogue Williams:Did you Google how much a room is there? Now I want to know. You can get an entry level room in the beginning of June for£1 ,400 for the night. Good night. Jesus Christ. For one night? Just the night, yeah. Entry level. I mean, that's not their language. Sorry, that's not what they're calling it. They have a word for it. but the cheapest you can... Oh, hang on, I've got something for a grand. Lovely. Superior Queen room, breakfast included,£1 ,031, please.

14:44Joanne McNally:It's probably like inferior cupboard room. Yeah. Broom closet.

14:50Vogue Williams:There will be mops by your head. Fine.

14:53Joanne McNally:We will come in occasionally and hang other people's jackets in your cupboard and then take them out as the night progresses. And you will have to hand us the tickets as we go.

15:05Vogue Williams:I'll take it

15:06Joanne McNally:I'll take it

15:15Vogue Williams:Oh my goodness Just I have to

15:19Joanne McNally:Oh God What is he dressed as What is he Is he a smurf What is he John he's Huggy Wuggy

15:26Vogue Williams:From YouTube

15:26Joanne McNally:Sorry of course Of course That was my next guess

15:29Vogue Williams:Show John and show quickly Oh my gosh oh my god

15:36Joanne McNally:who are you you're scaring your auntie Joanne sorry that mask is absolutely terrifying if this makes it to the podcast I want the listeners to know there's a horror film called Smile do you know this film oh yeah yeah yeah Theodore looks like your man

15:53Vogue Williams:he looks like a character from Smile I'll tell you what happened so Theodore World Book Day is coming up so I was like I know I was going to be really good and make costumes but I'm already making the Easter bonnets and I thought I can't do both. So Theodore was like I want to be Huggy Wuggy and this costume arrived and I was like Theodore you can't you can't go into school with that outfit like you're going to find the junior inference and he was like he started crying and stuff and then I had to buy the outfit anyway and then buy a different one that he can change into. Horrific it is.

16:23Joanne McNally:Motherland's my favourite show in the world. I love that. The show that I auditioned for and didn't get. Did you? yeah stop it I auditioned for loads of things I don't get anything

16:35Vogue Williams:oh my god you should definitely I would have loved you I would have loved you you should have done that

16:40Joanne McNally:I'm like yeah no I tried you should have taken that job why didn't you well no it was a very small it was like mother three at the gate I think I had one line or something but obviously I didn't get it but the episode where the main mom I never remember any of their names she turns up and she's realised it's book day and she takes off her own top and puts it on her and sends the kid in the stripy top and says she's like, where's Wally and stuff. I just, I hear a lot about book day and how much stress it brings parents. I mean,

17:07Vogue Williams:that's just, yeah, but you don't want to be, I personally find the Easter bonnet more stressful because you kind of can't, people will see your work because the parents come and watch the parade. So it's like, you can choke them into school at any old outfit, not Huggy Wuggy because it's too frightening. But like, people will see and judge your bonnets and I feel very stressed about that.

17:23Joanne McNally:I actually can't get out. That was like, I was triggered. That was like, he was dressed up as it. Do you remember? The clown.

17:30Vogue Williams:I have to go into school with the costume to show his teacher, to prove to him that he's not allowed to wear it on book day. I got him a ninja as well, because I'm like, just be the ninja. You can't be that.

17:40Joanne McNally:Do you remember it? We all float down here. Stop, says Brighton. Remember, and he's trying to drag the kid in.

17:46Vogue Williams:All of them at the same time.

17:47Joanne McNally:So basically, I was momentarily separated from my AirPods during the week, and then found them again, blah, blah, blah. And as you know, I kind of run through AirPods a lot, and I lose AirPods a lot. now in fairness in my defence some of them were like petrol station airpods do you know what I mean they're the bane of my life and I do think it's a con I think that why are they living independently of each other they should be attached in some way but the problem is with the string airpods you can't really train with them because anyway whatever look I need a huge pair of overhead ones like I'm going gun pigeon shooting

18:19Vogue Williams:the ones you're currently wearing yeah yeah

18:22Joanne McNally:or clay pigeon shooting do you know those like ducks you know that shooting ducks not that I would shoot a duck anyway I was banging on the internet of course on Instagram losing airpods blah blah blah woman messaged me and she's like my boyfriend lost one of his airpods we tracked it on find my phone and they were definitely in the house after an hour of pulling the place apart I got the idea for him to put on a podcast and the airpod he had in a separate room and walk around to see if we could hear sound from the missing room I think she means pod missing pod we could hear it in every room we were in and I realised that it was louder when I stood next to him I moved my ear around his body like a sniffer dog and it was coming from the hip area.

19:00Joanne McNally:However, his pajama bottoms had no pockets. I turned him around and pulled down his bottoms. Lo and behold, his air pond was in his arse crack. Whoa. Turns out he'd fallen asleep in bed listening to the dulcet tones of Alistair Campbell and Rory Stewart and Wood had fallen out in bed and then he'd lain on it and then put on his pajama bottoms when he got up to make coffee. As a point of clarification, he has disinfected said air pod and stopped listening to political podcasts in bed. at least he found it that's very lucky do you remember I dropped one down in an airplane toilet I still track it every now and again it's in Heathrow

19:36Vogue Williams:do you remember that time do you remember that time I lost one in the in the Rolls Royce that I cringely got down to glass remember and I never got a pack no yeah just the one gone and then I actually found this other set I'm not as bad as Joanne I'd like to win down but I have two of the same one like so I have two rights and I thought I'd found the other one I was like

19:56Joanne McNally:ah Just melt it. Melt it back the other way.

20:00Vogue Williams:I should just go back and say, sorry, actually, these came like this. And I was wondering because you could... Yeah.

20:08Vogue Williams:Girls, just heard the bonus and heard the letter about the men handwriting letters. This has happened to me recently. Okay, show off. I had no idea this was a thing. That's it.

20:19Joanne McNally:This could be a solicitor's letter. We don't know what it is. It could be something really dark.

20:24Vogue Williams:A six week stallion's romance situation ship, whatever you want to call it the guy was lovely but too full on. So I called it a draw All the best and all that. I will say he was a lovely man and I wished I was more into him. That's nearly the worst isn't it? Yeah I know A month or so later I get a handwritten letter from him. Eight pages long and he's talking about how he hopes it brings me some comfort. Okay Question mark. I'm fine Question mark. It was the strangest thing. It was stamped so I knew it wasn't hand delivered, thank goodness. Got it now, I didn't think to smell it to see if his aftershave was on it.

21:00Vogue Williams:I'm all for writing letters that I don't send to people. Get it off my chest, feel better, then destroy it, usually. Never actually send it. I'd probably be sectioned if some of those made it to the outside world. Anyway, all the letter did was to convince me that I did the right thing. And a bit like Joanne, whilst nothing bad actually happened with this fella, I did feel like the champ for a change love the pod keep doing what you're doing

21:23Joanne McNally:hold on like girls listen we love the emails but they're coming a little light these days on details what was in the letter what was in what did he say in the eight pages was he trying to get her back was he kind of confirming he didn't

21:40Vogue Williams:want to pursue it as well I think he was trying to make her feel yeah I think he was trying to make her feel better about the breakup as if he had initiated the breakup but actually she was like oh it's just the thing but in his own mind he's created fair play to him he's created a story where like he was the one doing the dumping

21:56Joanne McNally:yes he rewrote history but I just moving forward I wouldn't mind a little more detail on things or if you don't feel it's if you feel it's too much information in the podcast feel free to contact me directly in my DMs I would like a little more information there 8 pages I mean come on that's a lot like I don't really want to read the letter do you still have it? 8 pages This is a lot of handwritten messaging. I would like to know what was in it. Ask her for a follow-up, Jo. Email her back.

22:27Vogue Williams:The most romantic thing anyone ever did for me was this guy that I was sleeping with in... No, I don't want to say that in case my mum hears.

22:35Joanne McNally:I think your mum knows you've written people...

22:37Vogue Williams:She doesn't. I'm not editing any of this podcast. None of this is being edited.

22:42Joanne McNally:You've three children. Anyway, this guy that I was hanging out with in Scotland. Spending time with, yes.

22:49Vogue Williams:spending time with getting to know. I didn't fancy him anymore. I don't know if I ever fancied him. Anyway, he called to my dorm and I had told him once that I loved orange Smarties. Remember this? This is before they came in their own packet, I would like to say. So he dropped around this huge jar of orange Smarties for me. That's really sweet. Yeah, I know. I didn't get back on them, but I did eat the Smarties and I wrote about in my book and now I'm saying it here. So I appreciate that. Man, I don't remember your name, but I remember the Smarties.

23:18Joanne McNally:There's always a thin line. I think there's a very discreet line between fun, enjoyable, impressive romance, attractive romance, and weird. Yeah, yeah. You know, there is that line. There is that line. And it's very Cathy Heathcliff vibes where I obviously... I'm still thinking about that film on the regular. I have to go and see it.

23:47Vogue Williams:Don't tell. I might go. I might go alone. Everyone dies. Do they? I can't remember the book. They're stupid or so.

23:55Joanne McNally:No one remembers the fucking book. These hardcore English lip people have been so snobby about it. Do you know there's been like 35 versions of like people remaking and recreating Wuthering Heights? Do you know, like people need to calm the fuck down. Anyway, what I'm saying is there's a thin line between fun, romance that's hot and makes you feel attractive and then crossing that line between I feel uncomfortable now. But like I say, I'm here for the handwritten letters, but I would like to know what was in it. Yeah. And oh, also, I might set up a PO box.

24:29Vogue Williams:Joanne. No, you just never know what's going to come out. Ever. Where did you get that idea? Where did that come from?

24:38Joanne McNally:Well, I can't ask for people to send me letters and not have somewhere to send them to. One thing I want to say,

24:44Vogue Williams:you know your pal Kevin McGarren? Yes. did you see he did this song Jo you'd love it he did this song at the IFTAs very funny he was hosting the IFTAs which is a huge ceremony in Irish for actors it's like our it's like our BAFTAs

25:07Joanne McNally:this is iconic you should have taken that job in Motherland we should go to the IFTAs no no I didn't get the audition I forgot we weren't invited fight head

25:17Vogue Williams:but anyway he did this song it won't really work if I play it go look at his Kevin MacGaffern and he did this whole song about all the Irish actors and Steve Coogan sitting there and he talks about Steve Coogan pretending he's from Mayo and it's just I have to say hats off to him I thought that that was absolutely brilliant

25:42Vogue Williams:when you got the job of me when I got the job when I got the job when I got the job
