Why does England get Good Friday off but Ireland doesn't?
This is a Global Player Original Podcast.
Imagine a wart in your face. Yeah, I can't. And welcome to the bonus episode of Vogue and Amber, the podcast with Himma Jaina. Oh, hello. Welcome all. How are we girls? We're good. We're good. Listeners, I hope you're well too.
What confusion did the hosts have about Czechia?
We have missed thee for the whole week. We have, do you know what? The UK just had a four day weekend. Did you get that four day weekend? Yeah.
Yeah.
I find it almost bonkers that people like, I guess because that's not my job, but like that people get four days off where they don't have to do anything. Like I, like I'll go on holidays and I know I'm very lucky to go on holidays, but like I work because the only time in the whole year that I get time off where no one annoys me is Christmas for a whole week. That's the one week of the year where I will not get emails or anything. So, you know, when people go away without a laptop, I'm like, what?
How did the hosts experience their four-day weekend?
that's the name of the game for you you know I know but it's just like that must be a lovely feeling to just like be like see you later losers it's great on Monday Tuesday even you do have to squeeze five days of work into four twice in a row Yeah, yeah, yeah. But it's worth it. It is. Yeah, yeah. It was a lovely weekend.
What did you do for your four-day weekend? What did I do? I went to the theatre. I went, I chilled quite a bit.
What were the funniest April Fool's pranks shared?
I made some nice food, saw some friends, walked the dog.
I am in a bit of disbelief that you guys get Good Friday off and we don't. And we're definitely a holier country than you.
Yeah.
You don't deserve, well, I don't think anyone's the holiest of the holy countries anymore, are we?
No.
Who's that holy anymore? Someone told me about a new religion yesterday. Well, it's not new. It's like it's been going quite a while.
What chaos ensued with the feral cousins' visit?
It's a subsidiary of Catholicism. And I'm like, God, I just don't know. I don't even know all the religions that are going on around the place anymore. so many of them I'm still unfortunately one of those people who prays when I need something or if I'm in bed I'm about to go to sleep and then I'm like have I said a prayer for all the people I know that have passed away and then I feel too guilty and I have to actually because I'm like oh no nearly asleep but then I'm like okay now I have to do it I did see, I was running by on Easter Sunday, I was running by the church and it's this gorgeous church in some parts. Like it's really small and kind of like a bit battered, but like beautifully battered, like just looked really amazing.
And all these people were outside and they were dressed to the nines. Like they'd obviously been, it was a white party by the looks of it. They had all been told to wear white, I think. And I just thought, isn't that nice?
How did a flatmate react to a boyfriend getting a key?
Do you know, it'd be nice to go there. And then I thought, No, but then you have to listen to a whole service. There was a crazy amount of people that reenacted the crucifixion of Jesus. I don't know if you saw, I saw like a mashup on TikTok and it was like people falling off the crucifix and everything like that. It was just, I actually was kind of in disbelief. Have you seen those people who copy like bits of rubbish and stuff on the ground? Like they dress as the rubbish and they move as the wind. If you ever say I'll send you it. I'm like, it's, it's actually really funny.
What is the plea to bring back Faking It?
The amount of effort they put into it. They dress up as like, like imagine like a plastic bottle and how the bottle moves just a little bit. They'll do the same thing. And they've done it for like wrappers of different things. Yeah. I know. I mean. That reminds me of the bush prank that people do. Like they're a person standing in the bush and they scare people. I've seen that a lot.
How do the hosts respond to listener emails?
Oh, I like the bush prank. But speaking of pranks, did anyone get done over on any April Fool's bits? I did. Did you? We were so easy to get.
I did.
My brother used to put a speaker in the garden, like hide it like in bushes and stuff. And then he'd play bear noises on the speaker and like all the kids would be like, whoo! I got done by two things.
