Mad, Sad and Bad with Paloma Faith

JamPot Productions

Details

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? To find out more, Paloma invites an array of actors, comedians, musicians and thinkers into her home to reflect on times where they've felt mad, sad, bad - and even glad - what they've understood and learnt from these experiences too. This podcast takes us into Paloma's world, with friends and family popping in occasionally - come for the chaos; stay for the conversation! New Episodes every Tuesday Hosted on Acast.

Davina McCall: Breast cancer and brain tumour, I thank my body every day for beating it
You might know telly LEGEND Davina McCall from Big Brother, but I grew up working out to her fitness DVDs in my student flat, lifting tins of baked beans 😂 This conversation had EVERYTHING! We got into her wild clubbing days and then sobriety to losing her sister Caroline, learning to start over and finding joy through life’s toughest moments. Davina opens up about an incredibly challenging couple of years, from discovering a brain tumour and undergoing surgery to then being diagnosed with breast cancer. We talk about grief, self-compassion and the importance of checking your boobs (or breast tissue!), going to your mammograms and speaking up about your health. PLUS, my mum joins us to share her own experience of breast cancer. It’s an emotional one, but there’s plenty of laughter, love and a little bit of disco along the way. A really special episode with an important message. ❤️ Enjoy!!!! #DAVINAMCCALL #PALOMAFAITH #MADSADBAD This episode is part of Going Big for Boobs, a collaboration between Paloma Faith, JamPot Productions, Candy Kittens and breast cancer awareness charity CoppaFeel!
