Jack Monroe #407 I lost hours yesterday learning about a Jack Monroe

[StatusWoe]

I wonder if Jack decided not to do it, or BBC Scotland pulled it?

It's hard to believe they'd pull it with so little notice? I guess it does happen sometimes, but surely only in last minute emergencies? Jack has a reputation for no-shows. Or maybe she'll pop up later once she's properly awake.

Her whole career was based on a house of cards anyway. I think the only way she can come out of this is by rebranding, somehow. But I'm just not sure how she could do that without acknowledging any of the criticisms.

Katie Hopkins managed to have very successful career being our most hated woman, until Jack's court defense full of holes took her down.
Wonder where jack's pro bono lawyer Is sitting ref this latest chaos?
Also wondering what faith he is as Jack has never mentioned it

 

[Rekyavikgirl]

Lazy, cowardly, unprofessional woman

Husband: is this radio 4?
Me: oh Google misheard me, and I couldn't be bothered to change it...I'm enjoying the accents...

How long do I need to listen?

The accents are great I find it very calming! So it's a no show then?

He doesn't want to start his new year with this nonsense. Start as you mean to go on and all that.

Just spit balling here; if she has let down the radio show it'll be because of a meltdown and trying to claw back credibility behind the scenes, full attack mode engaged, the storm clouds gather over Thorpe Bay.

They might have pulled it if she turned up in a Katona like state, although LBC didn't when that happened to them with Jack. I bet she's just not answered her phone.

 

[PickledRadish]

Fraus, vaguely on topic: I just had my smear test done and as she put the speculum in, the nurse asked was she okay to continue? I caught myself responding “yes, absolutely”.

Go well x

 

[colouredlines]

I have fallen behind again, and won't actually be able to listen to the BARpod episode until tomorrow. But this is the news I mentioned on F&D a little while ago, and also the reason I am such a stickler for facts here.

(I was also the source for the knitting drama episode a few months ago, for those who heard that. )

 

[Tin Can Crook]

If she's not here by 11 and we've had no updates then yeah, I'd say no show. Whilst 11 is indeed after 10, I don't think they'd say after 10 if they meant 11.

The hand holding section is over. (It's okay to hold hands, men)

NO NOW THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT FEET

 

[Marmalade Atkins]

Feet up next on Radio Scotland. Great.

 

[AlwightDallin]

I wonder if we’re going to be blamed, mean vile bullies wanting financial clarity around minor mistakes such as tax, furlough, charitable donations, missing books and fundraising for nonexistent lawsuits.

She’s going to have an attack of poor mentals / driven to drink / a deflecting tragedy like her 43 best mates in ICU.

 

[Lumpyspaceprincess]

I was enjoying that podcast. Wish you could just pay for one episode. Once and done!

 

[hooplifehero]

Do we think that Jack’s vanishing from Twitter is because the podcast contacted her for comment?

 

[KweanOfMean]

Well...

duck off very much.

Podcast launch but it's paid for sub,
Jackie's name still turning to mud.
Bbc Scotland can't get her on the line,
All because her Mas tater tin didnt shine.

What a glorious day

 

[floofle]

Having listened to the podcast, I am pleased. I learned the word ‘lolcow’ which I did not know as I am old. And Jesse’s howl of laughter at the Autistics Don’t Lie claim was glorious.

 

[Smeghead]

Feet up next on Radio Scotland. Great.

20 different things to wear on your feet when you’re poor. Jack Monroe walks us through her top tips.

 

[Tin Can Crook]

Manly hand holding and foot health, nary a smol pixie in sight.

Now what am I going to do with all these prunes?

 

[FlirtyThirty]

Wouldn’t it be ironic if she actually…ended up poor? Fiscally I mean because she’s wanked all her ill gotten gains. She’s already poor at everything else.

 

[Menopausal Stormtrooper]

Feet up next on Radio Scotland. Great.

I should do this section for them. I know a lot about feet going wrong.
I own this book and everything.

Spoiler: Caution! Feet picture
