    No one can follow in Sir Terry Wogan’s footsteps – but I’m proud to be his son and share his passions in my new podcast

    AS the son of a broadcast legend, Mark Wogan knows the risk that comes with following in his father’s footsteps.The 53-year-old clocked from a young age that being related to an “institution” like Sir Terry Wogan would mean taking a different path to avoid constant comparison.
    Spooning With Mark Wogan is available to watch now

    However, after decades in the hospitality industry, the restaurateur has today launched a brand new culinary-inspired podcast, Spooning With Mark Wogan.
    A love of food is in Mark and his siblings Alan and Katherine’s DNA, having been encouraged to cook by his parents, Terry and Helen, from childhood.
    They were discouraged from entering the world of showbiz and instead all three children ended up in hospitality after Mark’s brief go at a television career in the 90s.
    He’s now combining his passion for cooking with a filmed podcast produced by News Broadcasting, seven years after his father’s death from cancer aged 77.
    READ MORE ON TERRY WOGAN
    “I’d like to think dad would find the podcast amusing and fun,” Mark told The Sun.
    “And it’s definitely on a subject that he enjoyed, which was food.
    “Somebody said to me, ‘aren’t you worried about being compared to your dad?’ And I went well, no, not really. 
    “Then they said, ‘but what if people say he was better than you’, and it’s like, well, he was, you know…
    Most read in Celebrity
    “He was incredible at what he did.”
    “As a slightly older person, you’re not caught up in that whole sort of father/son dynamic,” Mark continues.
    “I think all sons want to, at some level, supersede their fathers. 
    “In the mid-nineties I had a little bit of a go at it with TV and stuff and it just wasn’t right at that time. 
    “There was too much comparison and I suppose people just naturally assuming there was a whole heap of nepotism at work, but I can assure you he didn’t want any of his children to follow what he was doing.
    “It’s a difficult business and it’s hard to make a living out of it. I think if you are making a living out of it, you’re an incredibly lucky person.
    “And when you’re related to a national institution, you think ‘I’m going to have to take a slightly different path here… Strangely, we’ve all ended up in the hospitality industry because I think there was such an ingrained love of food within the family. Food seemed like a natural avenue for all of us.”
    Mark owns Homeslice, a chain of pizza restaurants with his older brother Alan, while their sister, Katherine, runs gastropubs with her husband.
    Spooning With Mark Wogan promises a unique culinary adventure with celebrity guests being spoon-fed a bespoke menu – showcasing the best of British ingredients and cuisine, custom-made to fulfil their foodie fantasies – but also to challenge them with what they think they hate. 
    The catch – they’ll be blindfolded and not know which they’re trying.
    “When you remove sight from the equation, you remove a whole heap of preconception,” says Mark.
    “The minute the blind fold is on people feel very vulnerable.
    “It’s been quite interesting, particularly with some of the professional chefs chewing away…
    “Matt Tebbutt couldn’t recognise a potato. He loves his duck, fat potato so we made him that with a little bit of pickled chilli on it and some fresh anchovy.
    “He got all the other flavours, but he couldn’t get the texture of what the main body of it was, which was a duck fat potato.”
    As well as being served something they love, Mark delivers one ingredient they insist they’d never eat again on pain of death.
    Claudia WInkleman lets out a scream after realising she’s just described slow-cooked rabbit as “delicious” – despite vowing never to touch it because she owns one.
    Other upcoming guests on the podcast include Jimmy Carr, Ben Miller, Tom Kerridge, Matt Tebbutt, Helen Skelton, Alfie Boe, The Hairy Bikers, Angela Hartnett, Gaby Roslin, David Gandy, Jim White, and Joe Wicks from two of the UK’s most coveted foodie hotspots – at The Groucho Club in Soho and The Mount Street Restaurant in Mayfair.
    Mark adds: “When I have watched the podcast episodes back, and I see a little inflection, I think ‘oh god, that’s a bit of dad there’.
    “So it’s kind of like… am I carrying on a bit of his legacy?

    “No, that would be too arrogant to say that, but at the same time I’m proud of being a Wogan. I’m proud of being Irish.”

    Spooning with Mark Wogan is available on the Virgin Radio app and podcast-hosting platforms. You can also watch it on YouTube

    He sang on Rob Brydon’s podcast: “They are sponge, sponge with a little o-range, they’ve been in our lives for so long — Love is a Jaffa Cake.”
    Robbie, who stars in a new Netflix documentary, said another of his dreams had come true.
    The former Take That singer explained: “I’ve also always wanted to have one of my songs sung in a stadium about a football player or a manager, and Angels is sung to Ange Postecoglou at Spurs. So I’m chuffed.”
    Earlier this week, the superstar revealed he had a panic attack when he had to go shopping alone.

    The superstar had to head to a supermarket abroad to gather food for himself, but when he went shopping he found he was nearly unable to.
    But on reflection Robbie, 49, admitted that his life may have become too extravagant.
    The former X Factor judge has mansions in London, LA and Switzerland to look after – and he admitted he needs to start scaling his lifestyle down.
    He also admitted that the reason why he found himself in such a predicament was because his food has always been prepared by a chef.

    Robbie explained: “I’m not proud to say this, but I went to the supermarket by myself in Switzerland the other day – I’m not very often by myself, but I was in Switzerland, I was by myself, and I had to go down to the supermarket to buy things.
    “And I got in there, had a panic attack, and came out with two boxes of All Bran and a pack of salt and vinegar crisps.
    “It wasn’t a full on panic attack, I just went in and I don’t know ‘what do you do?’.
    “I’m very rarely on my own and I’ve had a chef always.
    “It’s absolutely incredible but also at the same time it goes along with the big life that I have made for myself that constantly needs serving.

    Lili Reinhart Shared Powerful Tips for Managing Anxiety—And We’re Taking Notes

    When it comes to celebs who lay it all out there, it doesn’t get much more real or refreshing than Lili Reinhart. Reinhart isn’t afraid to speak up openly and honestly about topics like body image, diet culture, anxiety, and depression. Sure, she graces our screens and the covers of countless magazines from BAZAAR to ELLE, but she’s also a staunch activist for mental health and body positivity, frequently sharing her own personal struggles with both.
    Reinhart recently sat down with Jay Shetty for his podcast, On Purpose with Jay Shetty, and she didn’t hold back on recapping her 15-year journey with anxiety. In her candid interview, she shared five healing techniques that have transformed her relationship with anxiety. Read on for the breakdown and five key takeaways that you can try to boost your mental health too.

    Allow yourself to feel all the feels 
    Reinhart recounted suppressing her feelings as a child because the messages surrounding showing emotion was to not cry and be brave. Reinhart now proudly embraces shedding tears and breaks down the stigma that it’s a sign of weakness: “Crying is the most beautiful thing you can do… I cry all the time,” Reinhart affirmed. “I think it’s the most healthy expression of how you’re feeling. I sometimes wish I just could’ve been told, ‘You can cry. There’s no shame in that. There’s no shame in how you’re feeling. And also you don’t always need to be justifying it.’” And when she is in the midst of an uncomfortable, painful feeling, Reinhart grounds herself by acknowledging how fortunate she is to have the capacity to experience it.
    It turns out having a good cry is good for your health. Researchers have found that crying releases the feel-good chemicals oxytocin and endogenous opioids (AKA endorphins), which help release both physical and emotional pain. So go ahead and sit with your feelings, acknowledge and experience them, and allow yourself to cry without judgment and justification à la Lili. You just might find that feeling all the feels is a source of healing. 

    Learn to feel whole by yourself 
    It goes without saying that people come and go in our lives, whether it’s the cycle of relationships or losing loved ones. And when we experience a loss, we’re often told to find an external distraction to help with the grief (think: go on a hike or pick up a new hobby) rather than turning to introspection. With the revolving door of connections in her life, Reinhart said she found it hard to identify who she is by herself, outside of her circle and work. On days she had nothing scheduled, her impulse was to plan trips or reach out to friends—anything to fill her time so that she wasn’t alone. Her new goal? Trying to simply exist and sit in stillness, without feeling like she needs to fill a void. “I want to be OK by myself,” Reinhart said.  
    With the rise of toxic productivity, it’s only natural to have the urge to stay busy and pack your calendar with obligations and social interactions. Instead, we should take a cue from Reinhart and work towards discovering the value of solitude and feeling complete with or without outside influences.  

    Create a new identity 
    Reinhart told Shetty that she used to be a pessimist, which served as a defense mechanism for disappointment and getting hurt, and she struggled with parting ways with that person she’s identified with for so long. Reinhart now makes conscious decisions to rewire the “that’s what I’ve always done” autopilot mindset. Recognizing that’s no easy feat, Reinhart explained, “It takes pausing and reflecting and making an active effort to shift that behavior.”
    To take Reinhart’s advice, ask yourself, “Who do I want to be?” and reflect on who you are today while actively setting goals and choosing to build new habits to become the best version of yourself (see: future-self journaling). At the same time, let go of attachments to your old identity and any beliefs, patterns, or assumptions that may be holding you back from realizing your higher self. 

    Connect with your higher self 
    As an important step in her healing, Reinhart explored various wellness practices in search of her true self and purpose. “Two years ago the lockdown was forcing me to go through this healing journey by myself and my journey through healing was through spiritual healing,” described Reinhart. “It became an ‘I’m going to look inward’ [route].” After much experimentation, she found Reiki, sound baths, and meditation to be her standbys, crediting living in the Land of Wellness (AKA LA) and TikTok for guiding her to them. 
    Of course, what works for Reinhart (or Kendall Jenner or any other celeb, for that matter) may not resonate with you. But what we can all take away from Reinhart’s soul-searching is to keep an open mind when trying out different rituals to tune in to your higher self. You do you. Find what speaks to you, whether it’s words of affirmation, working out, or journaling, and don’t let any judgments from others deter you from it. 

    Take extra care of your gut
    Reinhart is a self-proclaimed fast-food lover, and she shared how her dietary choices led to not only her unhappiness with how she looked, but also her chronic fatigue. “I spend so much time trying to better my mental health and I don’t put any of that into my physical body,” Reinhart voiced. She also pointed out that recent studies have shown depression is directly linked to the gut, which gave her the main impetus for reprogramming her old eating habits.
    While the approach to gut health is very individualized, The Everygirl has gleaned a few expert-backed, tried-and-true tips on how to show your gut some TLC: stay hydrated, incorporate more natural fiber into your daily diet (hello, fruits and veggies), reach for fermented foods (think: sauerkraut, kefir, and tempeh), drink green tea, and prioritize quality Zzzs. Pay attention to your body’s cues, and if you notice symptoms like bloating, constipation, skin irritations, sleep issues, or constant fatigue, talk to your doctor and determine the best course of action for you. You can’t go wrong with listening to your gut after all. 

    These tips are not meant to serve as treatment for anxiety or depression. If you think you may be experiencing mental health symptoms, please seek help from your doctor, a mental health professional, and/or a trusted friend or family member. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay in seeking it because of something you have read in this article.
