‘You’ll see lots of things on the internet that aren’t good advice’ re tea tree oil & fungus. Surely all this is leading up to Jack? Fungus, bad advice, crispy toenails (banan skin)?

Oh tit, just heard ‘here’s Jackie’ but it’s a lady phoning in 😂
I read that with a 'heeereee's johnny' sort of voice. Very unsettling.

Omg, fungal nail infections now!? Can't believe we're listening to this just to hear 5 mins of warbling. I hope they're not going to segue into Jack's recipes from this.

Spooky Canal hivemind. Nefarious psychic mithering.
Future thread title? Would be nice to have one about us rather than Jack. :p

I’ve had to go, fraus pls alert us when they’re intro-ing her. This bloke is talking about his toenail fungus entering his heart stream, not for me x
Scottish ninnies you are made of sturdy stuff. Local radio here 🔺 consists of bell ringing groups and road closures. No poisonous toenail fungus.

Hello Tattlers. I’ve been lurking here since the HH2 blogpost. It seemed so unbelievable. I’m here to say thank you for making me laugh more than I can remember. The Jacktionary is a work of genius. (Although the grift itself is no laughing matter.)

I was out with colleagues the other day and it turned out two had already been down the JM rabbit hole. Others are now burrowing. Because of what I do for a living, and certain questions I’ve asked others, I can say with some authority that much more beyond the BAR podcast is already in the pipeline. You won’t be waiting long for more coverage.

No I think the trail was pre-recorded, but she's supposed to be joining live

Who knew covid toe was a thing?
Does your toe have to wear a wee mask and your shoes washed regularly for as long as you can sing happy birthday...

Still listening to BARPOD. Nothing that would be new to us so far but it's a full potted history. She's fucked.

It's everything from Hunger Hurts 1, through to the Hopkins trial, Kickstarter, the health issues, Teemill, Patreon, all the collabs, Hunger Hurts 2.

Just mentioned Molly!

Jesse: "This is like a mega grift."

They asked to speak to Jack! She did not respond!

Now running through the 100 hour work week, contradictory tweets. Celebrity squad! FOI request to police. Katie Herzog has contacted Essex Police and awaiting a response. Now talking about Joshua Bonehill and clarifying he wasn't jailed for harassing her.

TATTLE HAS BEEN MENTIONED! THEY MENTION OUR BEAUTIFUL RECEIPTS!

THREAD 31!

Vimes Boots Index- ONS "Jack had nothing to do with this"

Tweeting terrible advice re fuel bills.

Threats to sue, transphobia right wingers. All debunked.

Katie Roche blogpost now being mentioned.

Homeless claims "living rough"/ never been homeless.

DIVA magazine debacle.

Claims of poverty but probably in top 10% of booksellers. "she's either lying or really bleeping bad with money"

Lesbian who currently dates men.

Claims to be able feed family on £20 "irresponsible and galling".

They've been talking to a frau.




Here's the links included in the email

UPDATE: During this episode’s production, Monroe deleted her Twitter and few of her Tweets have been archived. Our apologies.

A Recipe For Jack Monroe

You will need:

  • 25 oz. of alcoholism
  • COVID-19 (severe)
  • A whole autism (self-diagnosed)
  • Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (if available)
  • 3 (or more) concussions
  • 1 grandparent who immigrated (from Wales)
  • Note: Add 5 tabs of testosterone for a Jacked Monroe instead.
This story, if cooked up convincingly, should get you hired by the BBC, Netflix, Hellmann’s, and Del Monte, shortly before making you an influential economist.

Just try not to look too closely at what’s inside.

Perhaps Jack will add her contribution to the feet discussion. ‘Feet and Fanny - a Monroe Guide to Thirst Traps’.

Listening to the podiatrist questions before you eat is pretty good money-saving advice, I think! I never want to eat again 🤢

Can you hint at what you do for a living? That is intriguing
