SPENCER MATTHEWS: OUR FIRST HONEST CONVERSATION ABOUT OUR FRIENDSHIP

Über diese Folge

<p>Spencer Matthews is a very old friend of mine - we grew up together sharing some pretty embarrassing moments on television, making a name for ourselves as podcasters interviewing (and winding up) some of Hollywood’s finest, in our podcast, ‘6 Degrees’.</p><br><p>However, in the last few years, our friendship has begun to wane, and it’s a question I’m asked all the time: "Have you and Spencer fallen out?". To tell the truth, I've never really known the answer to this… We’ve hardly seen each other for a number of reasons, and so when he reached out about this recording, I thought it’s time to get to the bottom of this, because friendships are important and worth fighting for.</p><br><p>We cover:</p><ul><li>Why he wasn’t invited to my London wedding</li><li>Where he was during my ultramarathons</li><li>Wild stories of our time on Made In Chelsea</li><li>Spencer shares the lowest points of his alcoholism</li><li>How the grief of losing his brother as a child, has impacted his capacity for emotions</li></ul><p><br></p><p>This podcast was created for connection in a world of disconnection, and this episode is quite raw for me. Like many men, I’m not always the greatest communicator, and I think Spencer would say the same for himself, so having this opportunity to sit down together, and lay it all out on the table was really special.</p><br><p>And I've got a new book coming out, Boys Don't Cry which you can pre-order here: <a href="https://open.acast.com/networks/611e511b4ec6dc00134bced2/shows/boysdontcry.co.uk%C2%A0" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">boysdontcry.co.uk&nbsp;</a></p><br><p>I also sat down with Spencer on his podcast, Untapped, which, if you loved this, you can check out too: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/untapped/id1788474884" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/untapped/id1788474884</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>If you enjoyed the show, you can also follow us:&nbsp;</p><p>Instagram- www.instagram.com/greatcompanypodcast&nbsp;</p><p>TikTok - www.tiktok.com/@greatcompanypodcast&nbsp;</p><p>And if you've got thoughts, questions and comments, you can email us at: <a href="mailto:greatcompany@jampotproductions.co.uk" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">greatcompany@jampotproductions.co.uk</a>&nbsp;</p><br><p>THE CREDITS&nbsp;</p><p>Exec Producer: Jemima Rathbone&nbsp;</p><p>Producer: Helen Burke</p><p>Assistant Producer: Rhoda Abrokwa&nbsp;</p><p>Video: Jake Ji &amp; Josh Bennett</p><p>Audio: Rafi Amsili&nbsp;</p><p>Social Media: Laura Coughlan &amp; Anthony Barter&nbsp;</p><p>-&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Great Company is an original podcast from JamPot&nbsp;</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
