This should be a wake up call for her. Stop vlogging whilst driving. Give full attention to the road. Reaction times slow as you age. You have to give proper care and attention on the road.

For most people it would be a wake up call. But for her it's useful as a poor-me, attention seeking opportunity. She'll take nothing away from the speed awareness course, claiming that it's too hard for her to understand because she doesn't know about inches, metres whatever.

The diagram below shows stopping distances, quite a difference between 20mph and 30mph.

As for the dark grey section for "thinking distance" this would presume an attentive and engaged driver, qualities not displayed by Jo Good when driving.

No Minge tonight!! A viewer calls in and says she is shocked to be speaking to Carrie Grant. CG said she was shocked too! It sounds like a last minute no show! I prefer CG anyway, much more uplifting and doesn't revert everything back to herself. The topic tonight is do you like where you live. If it were Minge we could take a shot everytime she says Marylebone. We would be hammered by 23:00.

I like Carrie too but could do without most of her contributors. Those flakey guests who each have several (presumaby self-conferred) titles. "Let's welcome Stellar, she's a well-known lifeguider/sensuality diviner/childplay rejoicer/neurodivergence advocate".
 
I caught bits and pieces of last night's show while doing stuff around the house. GOB sounded hyper and revved-up having just returned from a photography exhibition off the King's Road. The photographer was Carinthia West (she has been on the show in the past), known for her work around the rock and fashion scenes of the 70s.

GOB pointed out that she drove there and back, making a point that she stuck to 20mph "like a granny". Is she trolling us? If so Jo, here's some prep for your speed course. Braking Formula: fluffing time + sunglass adjusting time + thinking about yourself time + camera adjustment time + radio tuning time + looking around at everyone + braking time = 75 car lengths stopping time = enough time to mow down a load of tourists getting out of a left-hand drive coach on Park Lane.

Talking about a documentary on drug abuse, she tries to recall its title, attempts this about 5 times, then - to the sound of rustling paper - gives the correct name. She then pronounces the drug in question incorrectly, she calls it Fettanil when the well-known susbtance is called Fentanyl. This might seem minor but is the sort of detail a professional broadcaster should be on top of when covering a serious topic.

It's obvious her "research" takes place on-the-hop while already on air. Why come in an hour or two early to prepare as she should - but she won't do that when there's old hippy posing in Chelsea to be done, and she can fall through the studio door at the last minute.

Again said "anyone that watches me on social media". Went on to say that she has a "...massive, massive poster of Mick Jagger..." on her wall from the film "um, er, Celebration, is that it? Oh?... Performance". She would love Carinthia's photos of the Stones when they were young, they come in several sizes apparently - hint hint freebie.

Then we get a lazy phone-in topic, inspired by cool-girl Jo dissing the King's Road for being full of chain stores now (like it has been for the past 25 years).

I always find that picture on her wall very juvenile. She is absolutely caught in a time warp where she thinks she is a rock chick.
I find her obsessions with celebrity, designer goods and influencers quite tragic and embarrassing really.
Everything is for show.

She is a peculiar mixture of trying to stay young whilst rooted in the past. Her favourite clothes and shoes are redolent of her heyday. She is 67 I think, so in the 70s she would have been in her 20s. Her favoured bell bottoms, her breezeblock shoes, her voluminous smock dresses - all hark back to a time she thought she was in her prime. She looks so much better when she wears fitted clothes, ones that aren’t too fashion forward, but don’t dwell back in the past. Her wardrobe can feel a bit like she is putting on fancy dress or a costume, but sometimes when she wears less attention seeking garb she can look soigné.

About the King's Road chain store dissing, GOB used a very sneering tone to namecheck stores blighting the area, including Marks and Spencer and Next. Do we remember how she raved about being so fond of Next as a family favourite in a vlog she did with her mum, then soon after she did a beauty promo for Next, proudly unboxing a big box of freebies.

That sounds tedious and is why I've stopped listening to Jo's evening show.

Yes, she only bigged them up because she got paid. If she actually named Next in a negative way I hope their PR sees it and never troubles her again to endorse their products.
 
Barking at the Moon on Thursday nights is now replaced by The Flower Power Hour, GOB can ease her workload by bringing in Simon Lycett The Royal Celebrity Florist.

She made lots of mentions of SLTCF's Instagram, giving the handle more than once, urging listeners to look at it immediately as he'd just posted a photo of the Zoom set up where she could be seen. She also said, markedly, that her own social handle could be seen tagged there.

What a slimey, shady way of promoting her ad-heavy socials. I am certain she has been warned about doing this by BBC management but she thinks she's clever doing it in a more "subtle" way. I doubt they would see it that way.

I doubt the BBC care that much. They should however care that she openly shows contempt to her employer and colleagues by being ill prepared, late and clearly not wanting to work there. She should be moved out the door. Let someone else have the opportunity. That way she can concentrate full time on being full time online show off.

They should care, they are not supposed to show bias or allow commercial promotions.
 
Robert Elms has stopped the blatant straight-up promotion of his live shows but has again started leading listeners to his socials. He tells listeners they can see sunset pictures from his flat on his Insta, where just below the photo they will find a post promoting his live shows, £30 for a pie and a pint. He also had a listed Londoner on his radio show who has connections with his favoured event venue the BetseyTrotwood pub, which of course got a name check. Then he read out an email from a listener who contacted the show to say she'd enjoyed a gig by Danny &the champions of the world, Bob's mate who runs the BT events.

Her big announcement is her show with Sheerluxe is airing tomorrow. 🎊🎉🍾

Just clickbait title.

I fast forwarded a lot. Flogging eye stuff, Beauty Pie.

She says she is a hippy chick but dribbling when reeling off designer names when driving down Sloane Street. She’s a complete pseud. All show. Her grubby bedroom is at odds with Sheerluxe. Bet she wished she closed the door. All fur coat and no knickers as the old saying goes.Yes, still driving and vlogging….

I went through the Blackwell Tunnel yesterday. I was reminded of that when she was doing her performative lying down putting in eye drops, those nostrils.

She so wants a permanent role with Sheerluxe.

Dave, yawn. You are not funny cabbie.
 
Thanks for the summary @House of Tea
Not watched yet but guessing the vloggin'-while-drivin' is her trollin' us.

Anna Webb is on the radio show shortly, reminds me she is still flogging all sorts of dog stuff on her Insta without declaring the posts as ads. GOB will surely give out the handle so shady old dog nut Anna can draw the eyeballs to her adverts
 
I watched it earlier this morning and I was struck yet again at her inability to film herself without giving her "subscribers" a total view up her nasal passage. It actually turns my stomach.🤢

I know we can't help the way we age, but my goodness she looks very facially dehydrated/elderly on this latest vlog.

To be brutally frank why any skincare company would have her as an ambassador is beyond me. Bless her but horses and stable doors come to mind.;)
