Welcome to the latest episode of the popular Marbella podcast presented by PJ Lopez and Hannah Murray called Marbella with Him & Her. This week while PJ was in the UK, Hannah was all set to record the podcast on her own, with some snippets PJ had sent across while in the UK. Unfortunately, that all went to pot as Hannah had some technical issues which prevented her from recording anything, but that was to all of your benefit as PJ returned from the UK and normal service was resumed!
While PJ was away, Hannah certainly did not sit at home moping, she had a very busy week, but before he headed to the UK, they entertained their friend Nikki on Sunday night who was over in Marbella for a few days. PJ cooked his spag bol with pork mince (controversial) and they settled down to watch the opening episode of I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here. They are now all addicted to the nightly episodes and rooting for one of their favourite people, Vogue Williams. Hannah mentions that she might be a little 'parasocial' when it comes to Vogue!
Monday was a busy Bootcamp Pilates as Hannah, Amy and Nikki all attended the class now hosted by India. However not long afterward Hannah was full of cold and has been battling it all week! After some bedrest she was well enough to go to dinner with Nikki hoping to go to Alfredos in San Pedro de Alcantara, but it was closed for holidays. They ended up next door at another Spanish restaurant called El Cantinero, which they have mentioned on the pod before.
If you have wondered what has happened to Pub Charles, Hannah has some information on that too!
This week's interview highlights Hannah did on the radio included one with author J Randy Taraborelli who has written numerous books on JFK. His latest one is about his parents Joe and Rose, and Janet, who was employed to take care of some rather bizarre requirements.
Hannah also talks about a Daily Mail article which was about the spelling of Irish names which was quite frankly disgusting and pretty much racist. They both have a bit of a rant about the article!
While in rant mode, Hannah calls out the underwear chain Calzedonia for their stupidity in having hooks in the changing rooms that are too big for the hangers they have on their items.
In her chat with Guy Lloyd of Penguin Random House they discuss a new book project from Steven Graham, the award winning actor who produced Adolescence. It is a project for fathers to write letters to their sons explaining adulthood and growing up as a male.
PJ has some good airport tips for people traveling to the UK, and how to beat the queues at Malaga Airport passport control when departing.
They have news about the light switching on ceremony for San Pedro de Alcantara, and also mention that up in Murcia, Richard Gere will be switching their lights on!!
Hannah gives out some important information about a charity called the Food Fairies and the amazing work they do, especially around Christmas for disadvantaged children.
We are also very excited to announce a new collaboration with The Euro Weekly News. This week's articles include a special guide they have produced about the new EES border control in Spain which is proving to be invaluable for UK travellers both leaving and coming to Spain.
They also discuss the article about the upcoming arctic weather on its way called the 'Power Arctic Air Mass' which will send temperatures plummeting.
Another important article from the EWN was for motorists and the use of their horns. The police are cracking down on incorrect usage and issuing fines of up to €200 to offenders so make sure you read up on when you can use it.
This week is a real bumper week of information and there is so much more they cover so make sure you give it a listen.
