Mad, Sad and Bad with Paloma Faith

I want to be Anne-Marie’s best friend! Not just because she’s a martial arts world champion and could karate kick anyone that came for me…but she’s also a super-mum and global music icon.

She was so open in this chat, we covered all sorts, from her struggles adjusting to postpartum life to taking advice on how to be in the spotlight from KSI. We also channelled our inner rage and smashed up some bits in my garden with a baseball bat…

I’m so grateful to Anne-Marie for joining me on the show and being so honest. She’s the absolute best!!

Russell Kane is someone I have SO much respect for! I’m so grateful for his honesty in this conversation, from discussing sexual literacy to dealing with the loss of his dad.

After winning his first comedy award in 2004, his career grew very quickly. He was forced to learn the ropes in the public eye and is open about his regrets. We also spoke about his Nan, who encouraged him to go to university and how she walked in on him… enjoying some alone time 😬

This was such a fascinating conversation, especially hearing Russell’s willingness to openly reflect on his own decisions and mistakes. I loved chatting to Russell and I hope you enjoy this episode!

To kick off series three I had the pleasure of inviting Leigh-Anne over, who is one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met!!

A fellow mum and someone who isn’t afraid to use their platform for good, she found fame in one of the BIGGEST girl groups of all time, Little Mix. Now she’s taking on the industry as an independent artist, on her own terms. 💅

We speak about the pressures musicians face, the impact of trolls on mental health as well life in the limelight as a working mum. She’s an absolute icon and I could’ve spoken to her all day!

Leigh-Anne’s debut album ‘My Ego Told Me To’ is out on 20th February 2026.

I’m looking back at some of the saddest conversations from my series this year.

Romesh Ranganathan reflects on losing his friend, while Leslie Jones also opens up about her experience of grief. And to spice things up, I also have a debate with Alan Carr about whether you really can cry and orgasm at the same time…so cosy up as we look back on what has really made us sad this year.
