Rob is joined by comedian Ruby Wax as she discusses her battles with depression, troubles with Donald Trump and views on cancel culture's impact on comedy.

From being thrown off Trump's plane to running mental health support groups, Ruby shares stories about interviewing celebrities from Madonna to Bill Cosby and shares why she believes modern comedians have lost their edge. Rob and Ruby cover fame, mental health, celebrity culture and Ruby’s approach to breaking conventional rules throughout her career.

Ruby REVEALS:

• Why Donald Trump threw her off his plane

• Her struggles with depression

• How she identified problematic celebrities years before their scandals, including Bill Cosby

• Why cancel culture is ruining comedy

• Why she refuses to have personal social media

• How she is running mental support groups in cafes across the UK

BEST MOMENTS

"I can't get over it. I can't stand people doing better than me... So why should I put myself in the eye of that?"

"He said, if I ever see Ruby Wax again, I'm gonna kill her... The most excruciating moments of my career, he hated me."

"When you turned on the funny, you could get anybody... I learned that when I was 16 because I couldn't get them with looks."

"Nobody gets addicted to kale. We just get addicted to bad news."

"Now I think there's too much fear to be wild. And wild is what's entertaining."
