VogueHello, and welcome to Vogue on Amber, Amber and Vogue.
VogueI have reached a new level of being cheap.
VogueDo you want to hear it?
AmberOkay.
VogueGo for it.
VogueSo I forgot to.
VogueI do the shop every week.
VogueWe do a weekly shop, and I get it delivered on a Monday because it's just easier.
VogueAnd I kept forgetting to order porridge.
VogueAnd I have a certain thing about porridge.
VogueI only like Flavins.
VogueIt's an Irish porridge.
VogueIt's not just because it's Irish.
VogueIt's because it's the nicest porridge, right?
VogueAnd so I usually ordered avocado.
VogueAnd I forgot to.
VogueI forgot to.
VogueAnd I was like, you know what?
VogueAmazon will have it.
VogueAnd I would.
VogueI don't like doing this, but I'll have to do it because I'm after forgetting again.
VogueAnd then I.
VogueI looked on Amazon and I was like, eight quid for porridge?
VogueAnd I was like, it couldn't.
VogueIs that what I spend on a cardo and porridge?
VogueSo I went on to Ocado.
VogueI had a look, three quid.
VogueAnd I was like, you know what?
VogueI'm scared to wait till Monday.
VogueThis is like on a Tuesday.
VogueI was like, I am not paying over the odds for my porridge.
AmberSo what have you been having?
VogueWell, I've had to have Special K.
VogueAnd then I was having some eggs some days, but, like, I really wanted Bloody Barge, but I.
VogueThat's how cheap I am.
VogueI was like, I'm not doing it.
VogueAnd I'm not buying those other porridges that are in.
VogueIn the shop.
VogueLike, they just don't.
VogueThey aren't as nice.
VogueThey aren't.
VogueIt's just the way it is.
VogueOkay?
AmberI'm even worse than that.
AmberI get the little packets of porridge.
AmberOh, and the go.
AmberAnd the golden one's delicious.
VogueWhy don't you just eat a bowl of crunchy, no corn Flakes and be done with it?
AmberI made a terrible mixture yesterday.
AmberI made a mixture of.
AmberSo ran out of Cheerios.
AmberSo then I was like, okay, I need to bulk this up.
AmberSo then I was like, I'll put some Rice Krispies into it.
AmberAnd then I was like, it's not going to be sweet enough.
AmberSo I put these, like, crunchy little granola things in as well.
AmberAnd it actually was delicious.
VogueAmber has Amber's breath now.
VogueIn fairness, she does a good breakfast, but these are not things that are meant.
VogueIt's like.
VogueIt's like the little yogurt.
VogueRemember, she got that Yogurt from little.
VogueShe bought these Biscoff cereal and I'm like of course the Biscoff cereal is going to be delicious.
VogueBut getting up and eating 3kg of sugar before you leave, no therefore a tree like Weetos.
AmberYou know if you're watching a movie or something.
VogueOh I love Wheatos but I also love a Cocoa Pop because they get more soggy and there's just like.
AmberNo, they get too soggy too quickly and lose all the chocolatey.
AmberThe milk gets too chocolatey too quickly.
VogueA meal pop meal pop Corn Pops.
AmberOh yeah, they're gone.
AmberOh all the old like start Delicious Sugar Puffs.
VogueStars were delicious.
VogueI loved Golden Nuggets as well.
VogueBut they were literal pieces of, of sugar.
AmberI never had them.
AmberPeople use it.
AmberWhat are those things?
AmberThe Lucky Charms.
AmberI never had them because I would not be into marshmallows.
VogueOh no, I do like marshmallow.
VogueNow what I will say is the one time in my life where I because I usually stick around the the same weight that I am because it's just that's my natural body weight.
VogueBut the one time in my life that's that the one life that shifted was when I went through an absolute obsession with crunching of cornflakes.
VogueI used to walk around with a box in my hand and just eat them dry and I couldn't.
VogueI was going through probably a box every two days and that is full of.
AmberI know like and crunchy enough Cornflakes dry.
AmberDisgusting.
VogueOh God they're so good.
AmberI love them.
AmberThat's like imo and her like non alcoholic drink of tea like so miserable to yourself.
AmberNo, tea's not a treat.
AmberLook at you with your cup of cha.
VogueI know look forward to my decaf tea at night.
AmberHave to say no, I'd be a coffee girl, not a tea girl.
VogueI nearly had the tea just there and I said v stop ruining your evening.
VogueYou better hold out until 7:00 with the kids are bed and you sit down and you get your dairy milk that you brought back from Ireland and you sit the, you sit the down and you shut the up.
VogueThat was for you Sandra.
AmberI'm more of a coffee gal but I like a tea at night.
VogueOh yeah, a little, a little bit of basa decaf baza.
AmberI wouldn't be into, I wouldn't be into the fruity teas now.
VogueNo way.
VogueThey smell nice.
VogueDo you know what I will say?
VogueI.
VogueI do a radio show sometimes I cover for my pal Ryan and, and they once I Love Ryan.
VogueNow he has red bar tea that they got in for him and I used to steal his tea and I was like, I just prefer the green berries tea.
VogueAnd they bought me my own green berries tea.
VogueAnd I thought that, you know what that cost you?
VogueLike four quid.
VogueAnd I will never forget your.
AmberUnless they bought it from Amazon.
AmberDouble the price.
VogueNo, I get mine from Amazon.
VogueIt's not double the price.
VogueI have checked.
AmberWell, you got gifted lows.
VogueThat's true.
VogueThat's true.
VogueAlbert, how was your.
VogueDo you want to give anything about the start of your week away or.
AmberNo start of my week while I'm still on dry January.
AmberI don't even have a goo.
AmberPeople around me are dropping like flies.
AmberStill giving up.
VogueDry January and real snowball effect, the old dry January.
AmberThere's a lot of.
AmberThere's a lot of peer pressure going on about it now.
AmberI don't really.
VogueI haven't had a goo.
AmberI've had a very, very boring weekend.
VogueYou are coming over here on Thursday and you were like, oh, I just want to start drinking really early.
AmberI know.
AmberI didn't say that.
AmberWhat, on Saturday now?
VogueWhen are you looking to drink early?
AmberI was thinking about maybe having a drink in the airport on Thursday evening, but then I was like, not if a recording on Friday because what if I lose my mojo?
AmberWhat if I swear too much?
VogueThe little bit of mojo, your hair will be gone.
AmberI might be flowering with mojo.
AmberSo I don't know.
AmberI'm on.
AmberI literally was just saying that to Megan there while we were wolfing down our dinner.
AmberI was like, I don't know actually if I should drink on Thursday, but otherwise I will wait until Saturday.
AmberAnd yeah, I'd want to have an early drink because the Ireland matches on Ireland v England.
AmberAnd yeah, I have to say now, I didn't.
VogueI wouldn't say it was my best attempt to try January, but what happened to me was it was a snow low ball that was thrown at that time that I went and had the champagne and then it turned into a flipping avalanche.
VogueAn avalanche.
VogueAnd then this weekend I was like Friday night watching the Traders finale and I was like, you know what I'm gonna do?
VogueI'm gonna have.
VogueI'm gonna drink.
VogueI'm so got kind of drunk on my own.
VogueAnd then the next night I was gonna see Peter K.
VogueAnd I was like, what would Peter K want?
VogueHe'd want me to have a drink.
VogueSo I'm.
VogueAnother drink.
AmberI don't know if you should be Saying her place.
AmberGot drunk on my own.
VogueLike there was other people in the house.
VogueBen was there.
VogueHe's just been real.

AmberAnd then I'm watching Disclaimer with Kate Blanchett.
VogueYou are the image of Cate Blanchett.
AmberAnd then I'm watching some Polish thing called the Hounds or something like that, and they're just all diabolical.
VogueHow do you have the time to be watching all of this?
AmberBecause I watched different ones.
AmberLike, I'd watch one episode, and then I don't even know why I've done this, but I've started watching that show for teens called, like, Goosebumps.
AmberIt's bad.
VogueLike Goosebumps with David Schwimmer.
AmberNo, not the new one.
AmberI'm trying to watch the first one first so then I can watch the one with David Schwimmer.
AmberI'm watching the one with Justin Long.
VogueWould tt be able to watch that?
VogueI think he loves already.
VogueOh, really?

AmberIt'd be way too scary for him.
VogueAmber once showed Theodore Jumanji when he was about three and a half or four.

VogueHe was absolutely terrified.
VogueYou know, we watched it again recently, and Gigi was just there.
VogueShe couldn't give a crap.
VogueShe was like.
VogueShe thought it was absolutely brilliant that neither of them were scared.
AmberI thought it was okay because his cousin had watched it, and they're the same age, but he's obviously a bit more resilient.
AmberOh, my God.
AmberThe hell?
AmberThe scream that came out of his mouth.
AmberI was like, jesus.
VogueIt was.
VogueIt was the bit where he got sucked into the board game.
VogueHe's like.

AmberOh.
VogueOh.
VogueSuckable chicken noodle soup flavor.
VogueCopped cough drops are a thing now, right?
VogueA can soup company has announced soup flavored cough drops.
VogueI don't really think cough drops work, do you?
AmberNo, I think you're just as good with a mint or something like that.
VogueSo she.
VogueI don't know.
VogueI'm assuming that would be.
VogueWhat's that like.
VogueWhat's that soup called again?
AmberYeah, it reminds me.
AmberDo you remember we used to go up to Gina's and she used to make.
AmberShe used to make the most delicious chicken and broccoli Bake and, like, crisps on top.
AmberCrush crisps?
AmberYeah, like salted crisps or cheese and Onion Walkers.
AmberAnd then she gave me the ingredients to make it and I made it a couple of times and I was like, I don't think this is healthy.
AmberNo, I don't think.
AmberI don't think it's healthy.
VogueYou could have your little chicken bacon, then you could, like, wash it all down with some Biscoff cereal, followed by.
AmberOne of my yummy yogis.
AmberThe Biscoff cereal was not for breakfast.
VogueI cannot believe.
VogueOh, they look desperate.

AmberI can't believe if that's the photo, like, and they put it beside a bowl of, like, chicken soup.
VogueRotten soup.
VogueI actually, you know what?
VogueI never order soup.
VogueDo you use order soup now?
AmberI find people.
AmberIf people who order soup in a restaurant are odd, I just like, what?
VogueBut then sometimes, if by some chance, random chance, soup gets put in front of me, I'm like, this is bloody lovely.
VogueSuch an issue with soup.
VogueBut then when I have it, I'm like, wow, we like a cauliflower soup is delicious.
AmberI used to always make soup when I was trying to get away from eating sammies.
AmberEvery day is toasted sandwiches.
AmberAnd I made soup a couple of times.
AmberAnd it was a good few years ago, to be honest with you, but every time I made the soup, no matter what mix of, like, vegetables I put into it, it always tasted the same.
VogueAmber, I wouldn't say now, I would like to say I think you're fantastic at lots of things.
VogueI would not say you're good at cooking.
VogueYou're just not.
VogueYou aren't.
VogueI am.

VogueOh my God.
VogueYou know what happened to me today?
VogueI was filming a TV show, right?
VogueAnd like, I'm not saying I'm big, I'm a big superstar in the TV world or anything, but like they'd written my name down as V in like three different places.
VogueI saw it.
VogueI'm like, seriously, how?
VogueHow?
VogueLike there's a magazine, Madonna.
VogueDo you not know Madonna song?
VogueLike, have you called me Fuge?
AmberSorry, imo, spelled your name incorrectly there.

AmberAnd on.
AmberYou're in the.

AmberYou're in the bad books.
VogueAnd on.
VogueOkay, love the pod.
VogueLongtime listeners, MTMG and sometimes listeners of S and V.
VogueNow a full time listener of Amber and Vogue.
VogueMuch better name.
AmberOh, there you go.
AmberFit for feedback, lads.
VogueWe love it.
VogueSo I have a serious fight with my partner who is not supposed to be living in my apartment about the heating.
VogueHe wanted a 30 degrees Celsius constantly.
VogueYeah, that's a bit of me now I have to say 30 degrees.
VogueOh, I would be very happy.
AmberI mean, that's hot enough for me in the sauna.
VogueNo.
VogueYeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
VogueWell, you're on her side then.
VogueAnd I wanted at.
VogueOr at.
VogueI want it off or at 18 degrees Celsius.
VogueWhen we get cold, he wants to go around in shorts and T shirt.
VogueI wrap up because it's winter.
VogueWhen I get angry that he's turned the heat up to 30 degrees Celsius, he says he'll pay for it, but his money is our money.
VogueHe says the cold is making him sick.
VogueAm I the asshole to want to save money on the heat?
VogueNow I would feel like I can't really be a part of this conversation because I.
VogueI'm sorry.
VogueI love being boiling.
VogueAnyone comes into my house and they're like, what is wrong with you?
VogueIt's boiling in the summer because we've got big windows.
VogueThe kitchen goes to 36 degrees.
VogueI'm only thrilled with myself.
VogueLike, I love it in there.
Amber36.
AmberNo, no, no.
AmberWell, first of all, what does he mean?
AmberBut what does she mean?
AmberOr he mean, but his money is our money.
AmberThey have to share money, but they don't live together.
VogueWell, listen, stop judging their circumstances.
VogueWe're discussing the heating.
VogueAmber be a bit scabby now with the heating as well.
VogueAmber would be scabby with the heating.
VogueI've walked into the kids room and I'm like, why is it so cold in here.
VogueHe's like, oh, I didn't put their heating on.
AmberStuff to.
AmberDon't do that.
AmberWe turn off the heating when you're not here.
AmberIt was two grand for a month.
AmberOf course we're going to turn off the heating, in my opinion.
AmberRight.
VogueCost to live in the Sahara.
AmberThe thing about it is, is, like, it's nice to go around your shorts and T shirt, but also that seems to be a thing for lads, like, with the shorts and the Crocs.
AmberShorts are big.
AmberLike, doesn't matter.
AmberRain or shine.
AmberThey want to be in shorts.
AmberSo I think they have to meet each other halfway.
VogueI have my room 24 degrees.
Vogue24 degrees.
AmberI know.
AmberI would.
AmberI would.
AmberMidway between the two.
AmberSo what's midway between 18 and 30?
AmberSo 12.
AmberSo it's 24.
AmberThat's exactly what you said.
VogueYeah.
VogueSorry.
AmberI did pass math.
AmberOkay.
AmberI only did ordinary level.
VogueI'm actually really.
VogueI'm like Rain Man.
VogueSometimes I really surprised myself.
VogueYeah.
AmberOkay.
AmberTrinity's knocking at the door.
VogueAre they.
VogueThey're back.
VogueThey sent the cop.
AmberWell, no, I.
AmberI think it depends where you are, because I have my room at 18 and I think it's better to go sleep in a cold room.
VogueNewborns are meant to have their room.
AmberAt 18, and I think 20.
AmberWell, 20 is a nice heat as well, but 30 is just outrageous.
VogueI'd.
VogueI'd only settle.
VogueI'd settle for 24.
VogueI wouldn't.
VogueI would not be going around in an 18 degree or.
AmberWhat about you, Emma?
VogueI prefer a colder bedroom, definitely.
VogueI can't stand it when it's too hot.
AmberI don't.
AmberI love being.
AmberVogue's house is so warm sometimes.
AmberYou know the way sometimes when you're starting to feel sick and you, like, you start to feel sick and you start sweating and stuff like that, and you're like.
AmberAnd you start, like, retching.
AmberDry wretch.
VogueI come in and I see a door open.
VogueI'm like, what is wrong with you?
VogueClose that.
VogueIt's freezing.
VogueThis is our next.
VogueDo you want to read this one or you read the next one?
AmberThe long one.
AmberOkay.
VogueWill you be able for a long one now?
AmberJust.
AmberJust give me a moment.
AmberCan I.
AmberCan I read it first and do a practice run?
AmberI used to love being called out to reading school.
AmberOkay.
AmberHey, Vogue, Ambien, Emo.
AmberLoving the new pod.
AmberAnd also here for the queer side of the show shining through.
AmberI wanted to send in my dilemma.
AmberFeel like this.
AmberA little gay problem.
AmberI Was out at my friend's house party the other week.
VogueCan I say queer?
VogueProbably not.
VogueCan I not?
VogueIs that not because I'm not one?
VogueCan I say, are you queer or can I not say that?
AmberNo, it's not offensive.
VogueIt's.
VogueIt's.
AmberIt's been reclaimed as a non offensive term.
AmberI was heading my friend.
AmberOkay, just give me a chance here, will you?
AmberI wanted to send in my dilemma.
AmberI was out at my friend's house party the other week.
AmberThere were tons of people I didn't know, but I was promised there'd be loads of singles to crack on with.
AmberAnd as I was desperate and as a desperately single gal looking for someone to make an honest woman out of me, I was persuaded.
AmberSo at the party, head deep in the fridge trying to find the limes, I bumped into.
AmberI was bumped into to find a gorgeous girl behind me in the kitchen trying to locate the ice.
VogueOh, you love ice, Amber.
VogueThat might have been you.
AmberI was like, what I was in.
VogueIs this in London?
AmberWe started joking around and chatting and I thought to myself, what a lovely meet cute.
AmberA heartwarming thing to tell our grandkids we met trying to.
VogueWhat a lovely meet cute.
VogueWhat a meet cute is a thing.
VogueLike a cute way of meeting somebody.
VogueA meet cute.
AmberOh, my God.
AmberI'm not down with the youth vernacular.
VogueWhat'll be me excuse?
AmberGod damn it.
AmberIt's a youth marketing agency I work for too.
AmberI gotta get down the kids.
AmberA heartwarming thing to tell our grandkids we met trying to find different elements of a vodka L.
AmberThroughout the night, we kept bumping into each other and there were lots of flirty looks across the room.
AmberLater we started talking a bit more and I was laying it on thick.
AmberAll the flirty touching, laughing and giving her the sexy eyes.
AmberI was also very drunk at this point, so I might have been giving more squinty than sexy.
AmberBut anyway, I just finished daydreaming and decided I was going to go in for the kiss when she mentioned her housemate's name.
AmberAfter some inquiry, I found out that she lives with my ex.
AmberEx.
AmberWhat are the bloody chances I find my wife to be on my ex vag.
AmberI just did it.
VogueMy ex badge blocks me.
AmberI did decide to kiss her anyway and we're going out for drinks soon.
AmberBut is that a good idea?
AmberDo I start something with someone when my ex who thinks who things didn't end well with might be in the next room?
VogueOh, please.
VogueI'm sorry, but like, that's what lesbians do and you know it.
VogueYou all like, you all have to get with each other's exes and stuff because the pool smaller.
AmberYeah.
AmberSo.
AmberWell, for the girls, not the guys.
AmberSo basically, in my opinion with this.
AmberJust don't go there when you're having dates and stuff like that.
AmberIf it didn't end well with the ex, you're gonna have to have that conversation.
AmberBut go for it.
AmberGo for a date.
AmberSee how it goes.
AmberAnd you are gonna have to flag with her that you want your ex.
AmberBut.
VogueYeah, but I wouldn't do it straight away.
AmberLike let her fall for you a.
VogueLittle bit and then tell her.
AmberThat'S.
AmberOh, sadistic.
AmberYeah, too late now.
VogueYou have feelings.
AmberYou cut feels.
AmberThat's what they say.
AmberSo badge block and cute me meet cute.
VogueMeet cute.
VogueBadge block.
VogueI.
VogueI hate that word.
VogueBut anyway.
VogueAnd I think that like, like you like when I think of all of our lesbian friends, they've all.
VogueThey all like, have.
VogueIt's not even that.
AmberWe used to do that when we were younger anyway as well.
VogueYeah, that's true.
VogueThat's true.
VogueWell, that's it.
VogueThat's it for the podcast, Amber.
AmberIt certainly is.
AmberSo listen, remember, we'd love to hear from you.
