WITH CUSH JUMBO
This week the stars finally aligned, and Jo was able to speak to rising star of stage and screen, Cush Jumbo about the perils and pitfalls of becoming famous, and if Sydenham really is a glamourous enclave of southeast London. Cush talks about her humble background and how it only made her strive more for the career she dreamed of, and that you're far more likely to be creative and interesting if you grow up in a working-class area. She also gives an insight into what it was like to be recognised in the street for the first time, and her vulnerabilities around that. And as always, Jo shares some epic #FameFails from listeners and one from her own life where an A-lister literally saved her life!

WITH BRIAN COX
Prepare to get star struck, as Jo finds herself chatting to a sleep deprived, jet lagged, bona fide legend, star of stage, screen and Succession, Brian Cox! Brian was kind enough to join the zoom, despite having only jetted in from New York to London the night before and let his inner Logan Roy shine through as he shares with Jo the difficulties of having global fame in later life, despite having a hugely successful career for decades. The actor tells us about his humble origins, even sharing with us a much-cherished letter written by his mother over almost 70 years ago, and how losing both parents at an early age has shaped who he is and his ultimate success. Brian admits that he says 'yes' to too many things (including this interview) and HATES it when members of the public want him to tell them to f*ck off ... and ask him to wear headphones. This chat sees Brain open up about many aspects of his life and fans of Logan Roy certainly won't be disappointed ... Now f*ck off and listen to the episode.
