Now, are all the traitors present?

Let's get started, shall we? From rags to riches. I'm so sick of this. Working like a dog and being treated worse. Yorkshire to New York. Poor climbers, you and me. A life dedicated to revenge. Let's make this an occasion to remember. A woman of substance on Channel 4, stream now. Hello, I'm Russell Howard, and this is Wonderbox.

A Wonderbox is a place where you keep the things that remind you of the stuff you adore.

So I thought it would be cool to do a podcast where I ask some people what they put in their

Wonderbox and have a chat about the most amazing moments of their lives.

My guest this week is one of Britain's most exciting rising comedy stars.

She's an iconic performer who became the first ever trans woman to headline the London

Palladium.

This is Jordan Gray's Wonderbox.

Hello, I'm Russell Howard.

I'm here with Jordan Gray.

I'm here as well.

Hello, Russell Howard.

Hello, mate.

And producer Dan Atkinson.

Hello.

And we're here to celebrate your Wonderbox. Are you a natural hoarder? Oh, that's a good. I'd like to not have too many superfluous things in my life. Really? Yeah, I've got like one outfit that I wear for every show. I eat the same thing every day. So not really. Everything I own, I think, I've nicked or borrowed from a TV show I was on. Definitely shoes. I have not bought a pair of shoes since I transitioned really. It's really hard to get women's shoes in my size. But for a TV show, they find them magically and then I'll have them. What size are you? 11. Wow. Okay, yeah. It's big old flippers down there. And it's funny, isn't it? You never think about that. So you have to, do you have to have like, because presumably, I mean, let's just get straight into it. But do you want, like, dainty footwear? I'd love some dainty footwear. But you can't do it. No, because there is, what's it called, diminishing returns on daintiness as the size gets bigger.

Mathematically speaking, the daintiness goes down.

Yeah.

Yeah, my massive toenail sticking out the end. We put a lot of stock into feet. I mean, we use them every day. Most people use them every day. Not everyone gets to use them. A lot. People have things about them. I remember we had a gag on my TV show where I took my, I got my feet out.

I mean, flipping hell, that's a real window into fetish years. For sure. I can't believe you get your body parts out on TV, Russell. What you do? What kind of what's that? What kind of maverick does that? So, so Jordan, you know the, you know the scope. We're chatting about essentially things that make your tick.

The idea was celebrating something lovely. So what's the first thing you'd like to put in the box?
