Hello and welcome to another episode of I Way with Jameela Jamel, a podcast again shame.

How are you?

Fucking hell, fucking hell. It's almost over. We're almost done with this fucking year.

Jesus Christ on a bicycle. It's been crazy. It's been, it's been, there have been some lovely

moments. I hope you've had some, but I feel like I have been turned inside out and then thrown

off a cliff. That's just, that's my vibe right now. It's been a lot, it's been a lot and

because we're all going through a lot all at the same time in a way that I feel like we probably

haven't since a big war or the Spanish flu. I think it's made the environment and atmosphere

even more intense and tense. So just like well done, well done for getting to this point. We are at

the taint of the year known to some maybe in the UK as the Gooch, which is traditionally in biology

the space between the genitals and the arthole, you know, a bit of sort of like that thin piece of

skin. That's what I always think of as this kind of coming week between kind of Christmas and the

New Year. Pointless, don't know why it's there, but it's kind of fun. Similar to a taint or a Gooch,

I hope that you're okay. I hope that however you're spending Christmas is how you actually want to,

if that's something that you celebrate. I've had some fantastic Christmas alone where I've just sat

there eating Chinese food. I haven't bathed watching all of my favourite TV and just being as annoying

as I like. I've had some great ones with Chosen Family, which is what I'll be doing this year,

because I'm not a big family holiday person. Some people maybe have very stressful relationships

with their family and so they're still having to go and maybe they got off from having to do that

for the last two years because of Covid and they can't go away with that anymore. And so if that's

something you're really stressed about, I'm really sorry. And I hope that today's episode can bring you

a little bit of solace. I just know it's a very tricky time and it brings up a lot for all of us.
