About this listen

Paloma Faith has had plenty of moments in her life when she's felt mad, sad or bad - or been told that's what she's being. But do these words mean the same for everyone? What does it mean if someone says you're mad: that you're angry? Unstable? Insane? Or perhaps just different... Could those words be liberating, therapeutic or even transformational?


To find out more, Paloma invites an array of actors, comedians, musicians and thinkers into her home to reflect on times where they've felt mad, sad, bad - and even glad - what they've understood and learnt from these experiences too.


This podcast takes us into Paloma's world, with friends and family popping in occasionally - come for the chaos; stay for the conversation!

  • Paloma REVEALS her own Maddest, Saddest and Baddest moments
    Dec 23 2025

    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.

  • Leslie Jones: We Need To Stop Raising F*ck Boys
    Aug 25 2025

    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!

  • Estelle: Women Hold The World Together
    Aug 18 2025

    Estelle is an artist I’ve always looked up to - she can rap, she can sing, she can write - she’s conquered America but she’s a London girl at heart, so I was really excited to have her over to mine.


    After the phenomenal success of ‘American Boy’, Estelle shot to dizzying and mad heights of fame - we talk about the insanity of touring and how she made opportunity for herself, taking a chance and introducing herself to Kanye West. Estelle shares with me the pain of losing her grandmother and we discuss the power of a strong matriarch in a family unit.


    I also ask Estelle about her current relations with American Boys and introduce her to one of my own (NB might actually be from Bromley…)


    Also thanks to my mate, Seye Adelekan for playing so beautifully to us - you can follow him here: www.instagram.com/seyemusic
