Ok, for anyone who missed the live yesterday – I made a few notes (bored waiting to finish work, and thought this might get this thread chatting again
)
L confirmed there will be a new pod coming in April. She is waiting for the brandwork to be finished today. The new pod will be out on Patreon. She will be releasing an episode once a week, along with written pieces – ‘an online magazine’
She said she might do an episode on Spotify once a month to give listeners a taste of what the Patreon is like.
She wants to keep the pod on Patreon so she can say whatever she wants because the pod will not be ‘woke.’
She has episodes pre recorded and has some guests lined up. She had recorded an episode with Riona a few months ago but wants to rerecord it as so much has happened since then. She also mentioned that she would like to get Keemon and her sister on the pod. She wants to speak about being a young mam and said that she has passed the ‘indie mom crown’ over to Keemon. She then said that she doesn’t understand why people have kids at ‘like 45’, it’s better to have them young.
She mentioned Kneevo and people told her not to have her on the pod. L said she is ‘over Only Fans’.
She wants to showcase ‘normal girls’ on the podcast, not anyone with over 100k followers on Instagram – ‘not Ellie Kelly, or anyone too manicured’.
She was a bit all over the place when she was describing what the pod was all about – she mentioned that the episodes that she had recorded so far have discussed topics like abusive relationships, grief, dating. Then she went on to say that she wanted it to centre on ‘fashion, beauty, skincare – like a Vogue get ready with me, but in podcast form.’
She mentioned making the pod an Irish version of Call her Daddy mixed with Forbidden Fruit. The pod is for ‘girls who wanna put on lip liner and go about their day. Not into serious shit.’
When she gets more of a following, she would like to do an ‘Adrian Kennedy style’ phone in show where listeners can phone in with their problems.
She also wants to discuss extreme beauty and cosmetic procedures – she wants to do beauty experiments and report back on how she gets on. She mentioned the show ‘Supersized/ Superskinny’, I don’t really get what she means by this though. She said she got a ‘stomach attachment’ which made her piss out her fat and then showed us how flat her stomach was. She is ‘not into gym shit, or therapy bullshit.’
The last time she got botox she mentioned to the person doing it that she was considering lip fillers and they told her not to as her lips were already quite full. They suggested getting chin filler instead. She is getting a girl from America on the pod who buys her own botox online and injects it herself.
She also said that she doesn’t care about ‘influencers or girl bosses’ – which I found a bit gas after her ‘Don’t tell a girl boss how to girl boss’ line a few months ago.
She is really excited for the new pod and her ‘new era.’ She said she is in a really good space at the moment – it was nice to see her so happy. The kids are doing great. She has just passed her theory test and plans on learning in an automatic.
