'People were wondering why Mary Coughlan the Tánaiste was on Elaine talking about the dangers of the contraceptive pill.'I talk about the absolute nightmare that is eating out with kids and how my husband's behaviour at mealtimes has me on the brink of divorce. I talk about doing the Ray D'Arcy show with the icon that is Mary Coughlan and how shots were fired by the musical icon when it came to battle of the podcasts. Memory lane strikes again as I recall a story about when organised fun goes wrong.I also confess to having done the unthinkable whilst behind the wheel of a car and am reminded, once again, that it only takes a second for something horrible to go wrong.Thank you so so much for listening, and if you could recommend the pod to a friend or rate or review us on itunes or spotify I would be indebted to you forever!

Alanis Morisette, Pat Kenny and my crazed appearance on Ireland AM
'I'm fairly sure Tommy thought I was on drugs.'I talk attending the Alanis Morrisette concert and the lengths I went to ensure we didn't miss the last DART home. I discuss my very public breakdown on Ireland AM where I was deliriously rambling about my love for Pat Kenny and making absolutely no sense whatsoever, no doubt guaranteeing my non-appearance on live TV for years to come. In other news, I reminisce about Ivan Yates nearly calling the cops on me.I also let the cat out of the bag as to why my emails keep bouncing back whilst working for Sydney Harbour Foreshore Authority in 2007 as I share with you my manager's exceptionally problematic surname. Finally, I detail why I would be arrested should I deign to grace Forbidden Fruit with my presence. If you have enjoyed this pod, please don't forget to rate or review us on Spotify or itunes and/or recommend us to a friend. Thanks so much for listening! Love yas, J x

Kyla Cobbler and the most Embarrassing Moment of my Life

'The only exception to my Amish lifestyle growing up was being allowed me to watch Oprah for health and safety tips.'I'm chatting Oprah kidnapping tips, return to the wisdom of Jenny Jones and Ricki Lake and discuss making a bit of a tit of myself at the open night for my child's new school. I dissect the conspiracy theory that Pascal Donohue doesn't really have a lisp and reminisce about that time I briefly attempted to teach english to an Italian medical student. I also recall that iconic TV show Pioc Do Ride, a Tg4 take on the Pimp My Ride series.If you have listened and enjoyed I would love if you could rate us on Spotify and/or review us on Apple.
