Mad, Sad and Bad with Paloma Faith

To kick off series three I had the pleasure of inviting Leigh-Anne over, who is one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met!! A fellow mum and someone who isn’t afraid to use their platform for good, she found fame in one of the BIGGEST girl groups of all time, Little Mix. Now she’s taking on the industry as an independent artist, on her own terms. 💅We speak about the pressures musicians face, the impact of trolls on mental health as well life in the limelight as a working mum. She’s an absolute icon and I could’ve spoken to her all day!Leigh-Anne’s debut album ‘My Ego Told Me To’ is out on 20th February 2026.  —Find us on: Instagram / TikTok / YouTube—Credits:Producer: Jemima Rathbone Video: Grisha Nikolsky, Josh Bennett and Harry SawkinsSound: Joe RichardsonEdit producer: Rema MukenaAssistant Producer: Alex ReedMix: Dan KingOriginal music: BUTCH PIXYSocial Media: Laura CoughlanExec Producer for JamPot: Jemima Rathbone & Ewan Newbigging-ListerExec Producers for Idle Industries: Dave Granger & Will Macdonald

Seeing as it is Christmas I thought it was time to pull the stops out and do a Mad, Sad and Bad special. Today we’re turning the show on its head as I get interviewed by the person who knows me better than anyone else in the world…my mum! For the first time I’m reversing roles and sitting in the hotseat while my mum asks ME about my mad, sad and bad. I spill my stories of working in a fetish club to make some extra cash, we reflect on the heartbreak of losing one of my best friends and we speak openly about our experiences in relationships. My mum also tells me about her wild days, kissing men in New York and streaking with friends. 😱This felt like a special one, it’s not often me and my mum get to sit down and reflect on life together.—Find us on: Instagram / TikTok / YouTube—Credits:Producer: Emilia GillVideo: Lizzie McCarthy & @jakeji.pVideo Edit: Joel SommazziSound: Rafi AmsiliMix: Dan KingAssistant Producer: Alex ReedOriginal music: BUTCH PIXYSocial Media: Laura CoughlanExec Producer for JamPot: Jemima Rathbone & @ewannewbigginglisterExec Producers for Idle Industries: Dave Granger & Will Macdonald

Leslie Jones is one of the funniest people I’ve ever met. From SNL to Supermarket Sweep to Sing the movie, she is a force to be reckoned with. She simultaneously speaks truth to power whilst making people howl with laughter - a joy to have over!Leslie didn’t hold back talking about the self-improvement many men don’t engage with and how it is we are accidentally raising fuck boys. She also shares the saddest time of her life when she found out she’d lost her brother whilst on set and how she dealt with the grief. I can’t remember the last time I’ve laughed that much!!What an incredible episode to finish the series with - can’t wait for more, but in the meantime, we’ve got quite the archive for you to enjoy!#LESLIEJONES #PALOMAFAITH #MADSADBAD—Find us on: Instagram / TikTok / YouTube—Credits:Producer: Jemima RathboneVideo: Grisha Nikolsky & Josh BennettSound: Shane O'BryneMix: Jay BealeOriginal music: BUTCH PIXYSocial Media: Laura CoughlanExec Producer for JamPot: Jemima RathboneExec Producers for Idle Industries: Dave Granger & Will Macdonald
