Paloma Faith has had plenty of moments in her life when she's felt mad, sad or bad - or been told that's what she's being. But do these words mean the same for everyone? What does it mean if someone says you're mad: that you're angry? Unstable? Insane? Or perhaps just different... Could those words be liberating, therapeutic or even transformational?

  • Is this girl a moron?

    So I happened to come across a clip of an interview of an actual celebrity who is featured on this podcast. The interview would barely let her speak and honestly, she was just uttering nonsense. Lo and behold I find out she’s a singer in the UK or something. I’m guessing if she’s hosting a podcast that isn’t going so well anymore, but I’ve got to say that she’s no good at hosting either. She sounds really unintelligent.

  • Stop. Interrupting!

    Paloma/team. If you’re reading this. It’s a great premise, you get great guests. But PLEASE stop interrupting. You ask good questions but we never hear the answer because you constantly jump in and talk over them. It’s bad form and hugely frustrating

    Paloma you are a great host, you extrapolate so much from your guests in a no fuss style. I love the way you empathise and I’m getting through my decorating thanks to you and your guests.

  • Keep politics out!

    I listen to certain podcasts to escape all the rubbish thats going on in the world! Now we have a C-lister pop singer hosting a party political broadcast on her (usually), light hearted and fun programme. If I want to hear about genocide I’ll log on to Sky or the BBC. Unsubscribed.
