    Kate Hudson on why it’s ok to get divorced and punching Goldie Hawn in the vagina

    This week, Kate Hudson joins Elizabeth to discuss listener failures - and she’s such a class act that, despite running out of time, she insisted on staying to get through as many as possible. We answer listener questions on juggling the demands of everyday life, how not to feel like a failure after getting divorced before 30 (don’t worry - Kate did the same thing so it’s fine…) and finding a balance between work and passion projects. Plus: an anecdote about a pregnant Goldie Hawn you will never forget. Do you have something to share of your own?

    Kate Hudson - ‘Fame is a tumultuous machine’

    Kate Hudson’s comedic turn in How To Lose A Guy in 10 Days made that movie one of the greatest romantic comedies of the noughties, and her performances in everything from Bride Wars to Glass Onion have each been totally scene-stealing. This month, she stars in Running Point, a new Netflix comedy from Mindy Kaling, and she has just released her first album, Glorious. Her failures are open, honest and so very wise.

    Simon Callow: ‘Scottish reeling almost killed me.’

    Simon Callow is a critically acclaimed actor, director, author and star of classic movies such as Room with a View, Shakespeare in Love and Howards End. However, it’s his part as Gareth in Four Weddings and a Funeral that many took to their hearts. Callow’s failures include a childhood rejection that still haunts him, a play he directed which was savaged by the critics, painting and how he was ‘very annoyed’ not to get the movie part of Amadeus despite having played it on stage.

    Jessel Taank - ‘Real Housewives? It’s like Game of Thrones’

    Jessel Taank is the first South Asian housewife and the breakout star of her debut season of The Real Housewives of New York in 2023. In this episode we speak openly about the challenges of conceiving her twin sons through IVF and the misplaced shame she felt at not being able to have children naturally. Her failures include failing to overcome Indian beauty ideals, a failure to balance motherhood with personal ambition, and a failure to understand the mechanisms of reality TV (and yes…we get INTO it).
