This episode of the Beef and Dairy Network podcast is brought to you by the National Beef Lottery.
Your chance to win more beef than you and everyone you've ever met could ever eat.
And not only that, remember the Beef Lottery benefits good causes,
including Guide Humans for Blind Dogs, the Furby Fund for Lonely Men,
and the St. Paul's Cathedral Restoration Fund,
which aims to restore St. Paul's Cathedral to what it looked like shortly after being
bombed by the Luftwaffe in 1940
and then rebuild it again.
Not sure why.
So this week, why not
take a chance on
beef? Hello and welcome to the Beef and Dairy Network podcast, the number one podcast for those involved
or just interested in the production of beef animals and dairy herds. The Beef and Dairy
Network podcast is the podcast companion to the Beef and Dairy Network podcast is the podcast companion
to the Beef and Dairy Network website and a printed magazine, brought to you by the National
Beef Lottery. I know that every time I eat beef, I feel like I've won life's lottery,
which gives me just an inkling of what it must feel like to win the jackpot in the National
Beef Lottery. But personally, I don't think it's possible to
truly imagine what that must be like. The freedom that you'd feel when you win so much meat that
you know that one of your basic human needs, beef, alongside of course water, shelter and a decent
backpack, will be met for the rest of your life. This month, I spoke to the winner of the UK's biggest ever National Beef Lottery payout.
Dubbed the Beef Queen by the tabloids, it's of course Sandy Trevelyan.
Hello, my name is Sandy Trevelyan and I won the Beef Lottery.
Sandy, who lived in Redditch at the time with her primary school teacher husband Bob,
won the prize in December 2017,
on an occasion where the top prize had rolled over for 15 weeks in a row,
meaning that the jackpot had ballooned to a hefty 150 million tonnes of beef.
I started by asking Sandy what life was like before their lottery win.
Well, me and Bob were very happy together. We were not struggling for income. We had a quiet, lovely life with jobs that we loved. I worked in security. I worked protecting the model village, which obviously that started off as more of a passion project. Then it became a more full-time thing the more the youths burnt buildings down um obviously the job really was keeping young hoodlums should we say away from
the model village yeah yeah that model village has been at the heart of of your town really
for hundreds of years i believe yeah it was their first and the village was built around the model
village right i see so it grew up around that. Yeah. And like all happy couples, Sandy and Bob had a deep respect for beef.
Bob and me had this tradition.
We'd always say, you know, flowers wilt.
So say it with beef, is what we'd say.
Right.
So beef would be a gift.
In 2014, Sandy began buying tickets for the National Beef Lottery,
picking her weekly 35 numbers in the hope that they would come up. For those who haven't seen the National Beef Lottery, picking her weekly 35 numbers in the hope that they would come up.
For those who haven't seen the National Beef Lottery draw,
it takes place every Saturday night on primetime television.
Welcome everyone! It's Saturday, it's 8pm, it's time for the National Beef Lottery!
Time for the National Beef Lottery!
I'm your old chum, Cedric Toddards,
and I'm ready to turn someone into a beefy and air!
It's very simple.
The presenter, Cedric Toddards, and his 12 glamorous assistants crowd around the base of a huge fibreglass cow arse,
which is filled with 144 hollow earthenware balls
made from a mixture of pressure-treated kiln-dried cow shit and earth from the ground where the
Battle of Hastings took place. There are 144 balls, with each cow shit earthenware ball
representing one of the counties of the United Kingdom. Then, one by one, the earthenware cowshit balls cascade
from the arse, and the first 35 that break are that week's winning numbers.
Just a reminder that the jackpot has rolled over again for the 15th week in a row,
which brings the prize total up to 150 million tonnes of beef!
total up to 150 million tonnes of beef.
As it got closer and closer to my numbers,
they called out a five.
Look alive, it's five.
I let out a little squeal, but Bob squeezed my hand and said, not yet, not yet.
Lots of beef for you, it's 22.
Not yet.
Straight from the fibreglass cow bum, 31.
They say that you have more chance of a cow falling out of a plane and landing on you than winning the beef lottery.
Are the beef gods smiling upon your fate? It's 108.
I don't think I breathed for the next ten minutes.
A life without any anxiety about buying beef would be just fine.
It's 59.
Just watching the balls roll and smash and roll and smash
and then when it got to our final number...
And the final number.
Because we've had plenty, it's 20!
number because we've had plenty it's 20. I just threw up. Bob passed out I didn't have any breath left to revive him I was so shocked but he gently came around and then when I told him what happened
as a reminder he passed out again and that continued for a bit and of course every time he fainted he broke another limb but yeah he was mostly really excited and the computer is showing
that we have one winner in the midlands congratulations a jackpot of 150 million tonnes of beef.
That's all the time we've got this week for the National Beef Lottery.
Congratulations to our lucky winner.
Now to play us out with their new single, Hammer of the Witches,
it's the fabulous Cradle of Filth.
Coming from Redditch, of course, I knew Sandy.
So it was with tremendous excitement to find out that, you know,
one of our own had landed the huge beef prize, the bovine jackpot.
I couldn't believe it.
Bob Crack, who has featured on this podcast before, is also from Redditch.
Hello, my name is Bob Crack, and I am the Bovine Farmers Union Youth Outreach Officer.
And Bob actually knew Sandy quite well
through her job at the Model Village.
With my work with the Bovine Farmers Union,
it's my job to go and find, you know,
as I've always said, the children of today
are the farmers of tomorrow.
And it's my job to, you know, go to the inner city places
where the near do well, the non do gooders.
It's the places where, you know, people who society have turned their back on them.
You know, as I always say, when society turns their back, here comes Bob Crack.
You know, so I'd be going to all the regular places where the near-do-wells would go.
You know, the worst part of the park, the bad bus shelter.
And then the model village, because the model village was a hot spot for you know teenage bad behavior my theory on it is it made them feel big it's as simple as that
really you know when life makes you feel small go to somewhere that makes you feel big so you know
i was always going there to try and you know try, try and recruit. And, you know, a delinquent is also a very good potential dairy farmer, you know.
And so I'd often go there and Sandy would be very good at pointing out the ones that she thought, you know.
She'd often say, that one over there, you know, they've got a girth to them that would benefit a farm.
Bob also knew Sandy's husband,
Bob.
Redditch is other Bob, as I often call him,
just for a joke, he never really liked that.
I'm sure there are other Bobs.
But yeah, he was a teacher at the local
primary school, so I obviously
had been down there with my
biannual outreach roadshow.
It was initially planned to be annual,
but the scale, I mean, the sheer ambition of it
kind of meant that it only was logistically possible
to do biannually, really.
And I think, you know, I look back now and think,
was that maybe a mistake?
Maybe a smaller roadshow that I could perform more often.
But anyway, sorry, I'm getting distracted.
Yeah, I'd be down there, you know,
doing my outreach roadshow. And I say it was biannual but i did only ever perform it the once the
fireworks budget alone meant that it was unfeasible you know and we're talking about a show here that
was 80 percent fireworks uh and not wise for an indoor show you know uh terrible idea particularly as you know i'd kind of set designed
the room with hay very very dry hay to kind of make it feel like a barn not to mention that i'd
been passing around you know smell the tractor diesel where i'd pass around essentially buckets
of tractor diesel so a bit of a recipe for disaster, I think, is what the judge said.
Anyone who was paying attention to the news five years ago, and indeed anyone who's familiar with
the structure of a morality tale, will know that the dream of winning the beef lottery
quickly turned into a nightmare for Sandy. I asked her when she realised that winning
150 million tonnes of beef wasn't going to be a nightmare for Sandy. I asked her when she realised that winning 150 million tonnes
of beef wasn't going to be a wholly positive experience. I think it was the day that I
realised that all the beef was going to be delivered at once. I think that was the big
turning point. What a day, what a day for the town, you know, and oh my word, who could forget
when it arrived and they stacked it high. You know,
it looked funny. Everyone had
a good laugh. Our neighbour
Susan on the left and our other
neighbour Graham and his family,
you know, they couldn't stop
taking photographs and doing TikToks
and... How big are we talking? It's
really hard to kind of get my head around how much
beef that is. Yeah.
It's hard to get your head around it even if you see it to be honest because it's it's you know when you've
got you're taking a photograph and the the frame is filled so you have to sort of step back a bit
yeah you can never step back enough I was down the end of the road um right at the bottom of the hill and i could still only see beef in my
in my vision and you could see this thing from east redditch you know all the way out
to the hills of east redditch you could see this towering pyramid of beef
awe-inspiring actually where do you put the beef. Where do you put the beef? Yeah.
Where do you put the beef?
Where do you put the beef?
People would go out there for day trips, really.
You know, it became a thing to do
all the way through December.
You know, it was very festive.
It became a real kind of Christmas event.
We hung the lights on it,
kind of treated it like a big Christmas tree.
People were, you know, writing messages and leaving them around the bottom,
their hopes and dreams for the following year.
It was a wonderful, festive thing, a big, huge, beefy Christmas tree.
And then February came, and as I like to call it, the Great Thor.
We were also highly aware of the time limit on this beef.
We were aware that the seasons were fluctuating, and soon...
Come spring.
Come the spring, the beef...
That's a fetid mountain.
Yeah.
As the temperature rose, the top layer of beef on the beef mound
quickly gave in to putrefaction, creating a giant, rotting pyramid.
A putrid Golgotha.
A malodorous Mont Blanc.
A fetid Foudry.
An offensive Olympus.
A mouldering Matterhorn.
A smelly Everest.
The condensation dripping off that thing,
it was forming rivers in the street.
A beefy residue.
Washing away all the hope.
Quite poetic, really.
All the hopes and dreams for the year ahead that had been pinned to the bottom of the pyramid
kind of were washed away with this kind of beefy juice.
It was our own Pompeii in a way.
And from that March morning, you know, the stench, the kind of the off beef, you know.
You know the phrase, it was a real pea super,
is what they said about the London fogs.
You know, this was a real beef super,
and not a good beef super.
Of course, it wasn't long before the holy mountain of meat,
with its decomposing mantle of bubbling hot beef juice,
caught the eye of the authorities. My name is Detective Chief Inspector Dexter Whatley, and I headed up the
National Beef Lottery Emergency Cleanup Task Force. DCI Whatley was dispatched to Redditch
in March 2018. The sight I saw, bear in mind I've many decades of experience in emergencies, disasters, police work of all kinds
it was quite striking
the beef mountain for want of a better expression by then had begun to mottle
we've had a long cold winter
the weather was thawing
and you could see on the outer crusts of the beef mound
there was the beginnings of putrefaction, colour change, steam beginning to rise.
And I knew we had a major, major incident on our hands.
The threat level was increasing steadily.
The threat level was increasing steadily.
We had now got to the point where there was a self-imposed no-fly zone over the beef mound.
Birds were simply dropping out of the sky if they went anywhere near the airspace over the top of it.
Buses were warping if they drove past it.
There were mega worms being sighted. There was one very hench fox that did seem to be able to
manage it and was doing
well, thriving off it.
And I think at the time he was shot
was something like 18 foot long.
And that was
quite intimidating for local
people. So it was clearly becoming very dangerous.
It was causing people headaches and
migraines, collapse, confusion. There are people arguing amongst themselves that never argued before
and people were going to die i mean in terms of a health disaster on a population scale this is
well what to compare it to i mean it's it's a bit like um if you've seen the HBO drama Chernobyl, that level of seriousness.
Yeah, or indeed just, you know, the real Chernobyl.
It was like Chernobyl, to what you're saying.
What?
You're comparing it to Chernobyl.
Yes, HBO, that drama.
You know what I'm talking about, don't you?
I think it was HBO. Well, no, they made an You know what I'm talking about, don't you? I think it was HBO.
Well, no, they made an HBO drama about it, of course,
but there was obviously the real Chernobyl disaster
which took place in...
Was it drama?
Well, there was a drama about it, yeah, but it...
Yes, it's a drama.
A drama about...
About an actual event which happened...
I think that sounds very unlikely.
Yeah, so in Ukraine in the 80s, a nuclear reactor exploded and...
Oh.
Oh, good Lord.
Oh, that's awful.
Good grief, that's cast quite a shadow over that
otherwise
very very very good
TV series
for me
I have to admit it is
shining a rather unpleasant light on the
HBO's
Chernobyl themed
fancy dress party
I held for my
50th
a couple of weeks ago
it sounds like you didn't know
you know
it's okay Dexter
yeah
are we nearly done here
I think I need to make
a couple of calls
about people's
Instagrams
and Twitters
if that's
if you don't mind
and
sorry can I just check
is the last of us real, if that's, if you don't mind. And, sorry, can I just check, is The Last of Us real?
No. No, that's fiction.
No, yeah, yeah. I know, I know, I know, I know, I know.
I know.
Just, hmm.
DCI Whatley quickly ascertained that it was Sandy and Bob
who bore responsibility for the growing crisis.
My first interview with Sandy and Bob was problematic, I would say.
They were in panic mode.
They had many millions of tonnes of beef to deal with.
I think they were trying to sell it, honestly.
I could make them understand that it needed to be moved,
and it needed to be moved and it needed to be moved
asap they were trying to make a bit of money back they wanted to move it another way they wanted to
move it for cash uh they weren't able to sell it fast enough so they're now in a sort of phase b
as i called it at the time of trying to secure as many as many fridges as humanly possible. They had nowhere to plug them in.
Bob had two very long extension cables,
which he was bragging about, quite frankly.
I thought that was a misplaced brag, but they were out of their heads.
It was the wrong strategy at the wrong time,
and they really couldn't be reasoned with.
At the time, journalists from The Guardian worked out
that if Sandy and Bob were to refrigerate all the beef,
they would need to buy over 200 million large American-style fridges.
And so Sandy and Bob pivoted to another strategy
to deal with the growing biological disaster.
We called in a lot of help from around the village.
Bob's got a lot of friends in the school,
friends and pupils, so we
pulled in quite a few hundred
children to help.
It was at this point that Bob
called Bob Crack.
He was very cheery, very friendly
and said he'd had an idea, you know, maybe I'd like
to bring some of the gang,
my squad, I call them,
down to the beefy pyramid and show them, you know,
this is what beef can do, you know. I wasn't sure. I mean, you know, back in December, yeah,
great, of course, we made a day of it, you know, dressed up, taking pictures, whatnot. But,
you know, we're talking, this was on the turn, we were right in the middle of the stench.
And I said this to Bob, Bob pointed out that, you know, maybe're talking, this was on the turn, we were right in the middle of the stench.
And I said this to Bob.
Bob pointed out that, you know, maybe it'd be good for these kids to see what beef can do, you know.
And I got that. I get that.
If you're going to work with beef, you've got to know its powers, you know. You've got to be able to harness it.
You've got to know its many different shapes and hues and forms.
So I kind of thought, okay, let's do this. I warned the kids. I said, look, this isn't going to know it. It's many different shapes and hues and forms. So I kind of thought, OK, let's do this.
I warned the kids. I said, look, this isn't going to be pretty.
But I wanted to show these kids what can happen if you don't respect the beef.
You know, it can turn on you.
Bob arrived at the wobbling pyramid with 90 children from his local kids' beef squad groups.
And within minutes of arriving, he realised why Bob, the other Bob, had really invited them there.
Suddenly, he could see his true motive.
He was cramming two pound coins into the kids' hands and giving them a trowel.
And then sending them up the pyramid.
They'll do anything for a two pound coin.
And so there they are, you know, taking it, scaling this pyramid
and scraping off these layers of fetid beef.
During March 2018,
over 500 local children were given two-pound coins
in return for scaling the beef mountain
to debride it of its rotting outer crust.
Bob was instructing them to drag the beef down to the river,
you know, Pied Piper down to the river, you know.
Pied Piper of Hamlin style, I guess, but without the music.
Instead of the intoxicating sound of a pipe,
all you could hear was the threatening jingle of two-pound coins in pockets.
It was a sinister sound.
So when the waste had been removed, we were left with the good cuts.
With the rotten layer gone, there was still well over 100 million tonnes of prime beef to deal with.
And so Sandy and Bob quickly put together a sales team to sell it to local residents. Some of the kids who were involved in the cleanup didn't actually
want to go back to school and they sort of weren't allowed as well. So we got them on board.
They weren't allowed to go back to school? They were too infectious and demoralising.
For the other children, yeah. Yeah, for the other kids yeah yeah for the other kids they were actually very effective
sales people we'd send them door to door and because they looked so deeply sad a lot of
the the customers would would buy tons of beef it also helped that we said that the the profits
were going directly to the children's future which they are in a way because the you know the
more supported we are the longer we can keep them employed is it hard to shift beef that people are
aware has been part of uh what i i think was described by the eu as one of the worst biological
disasters in europe's history i think people wanted to be part of something. We all want to feel part of a community.
And people that bought Beef those six months we were selling it,
felt like they were joining an exclusive club.
I remember when the Millennium happened
and we all went to the Millennium Dome and got all of that lovely merch.
It was a bit like that.
the Millennium Dome and got all of that lovely merch. It was a bit like that.
More after this. When you're growing up, you want to find ways to stand out, right? Maybe that was addressing in a different way, or maybe, you know, as a kid, you felt under pressure and told some
crazy made up stories. Like when I was seven in school, I told my entire class that I looked
into a cow's eye and could see the souls of both Adam and Eve. Now that one actually was true,
but it did make me stand out. And it's tough to stand out, especially if you're a business owner
and you want to attract the most talented people to hire on your team. But ZipRecruiter makes it
easy. ZipRecruiter itself can send you potential people for your job and you can look through them
and then invite the ones who you like the look of to apply to improve your workforce so you stand out from the competition.

This episode of the Beef and Dairy Network podcast is brought to you by the National Beef Lottery.
Your chance to win more beef than you can even conceive of.
And not only that, remember the Beef Lottery benefits good causes,
including a rehabilitation program for disillusioned juggalos,
archery lessons
for CEOs with low self-esteem, and the campaign to build an imposing bronze statue of Christina
Aguilera emerging from the waves in the middle of the Atlantic.
So this week, why not take a chance on beef?
Over the course of six months, Sandy and Bob managed to sell all of the beef through their network of child door-to-door salespeople, and in doing so became some of the richest people
in the UK. Richer than the likes of James Dyson, Paul McCartney, and the shadowy billionaire who
invented the curly whwhirly.
To give you just a sense of what that sort of money can get you,
Sandy now lives in a spacious four-bedroomed house near Stratford-upon-Avon with gas central heating throughout, a garage with room for two cars,
and she subscribes to both Netflix and Disney+,
sporadically signing up to Now TV when Succession is on.
Plus, sporadically signing up to Now TV when Succession is on. However, that sort of lifestyle,
being able to effortlessly flick back and forth between Stranger Things and The Mandalorian,
didn't bring happiness. I'd like to say that beef doesn't change a person, that quantity of beef.
But ultimately, it did come between us. I remember the night that i won the beef lottery and me and bob actually made love on a bed of beef we thought it was really romantic and then just as
we'd finished we we realized it was absolutely disgusting right yeah yeah. I wouldn't recommend it. No, I wouldn't.
No.
Me and Bob do live apart now.
I hate my life.
There was a moment on my last birthday where I opened the mail from the postman
and there were no birthday cards.
It was just legal case after legal case a postcard from bob that didn't address my birthday just said what a great time he's having
how is he he's thriving yeah bob's been able to move on and that has been hard for me
he regularly updates me on on his travels he's got a new partner hillary clinton
bill knows about it sorry the hillary clinton yeah yeah former presidential candidate
hillary clinton right yeah he's dating hillary clinton yeah yeah bill knows about it but they
have an arrangement right yeah they're very happy together. They send me postcards.
Right.
They've actually made it official on their Facebook.
Oh, God.
Yeah.
That must be really hard.
It is hard. It's hard to see how happy he is.
And I guess you see Bob experiencing this happiness and you must think, you know, why can't i go out on dates with emmanuel macron yeah
and it's not that you know i haven't asked you've sent him yeah requests requests yeah yeah yeah
emails but he's not interested yeah i don't know if it's to do with the beef or not. Yeah.
I get quite cold replies from Macron.
It's good that you get replies, though.
Yeah.
Feels like the kind of thing you could just ignore.
Yeah, but I don't think he's a rude person.
No, but if you're the president of France, you've got a lot going on.
Yeah. I don't think anyone would blame him if he just didn't get back to your letter.
No, I mean, it does reflect well on him.
Yeah.
Yeah, but that doesn't make it any easier for me. No, I mean, it does reflect well on him. Yeah. But that doesn't make it any easier for me.
No, I get that. But do you not think
that maybe actually the fact that he's even replying
and saying no, really, he's kind of saying maybe?
Yeah, I hadn't thought of it
like that.
You mean he's being aloof?
That's given me a little bit of joy in my heart.
Yeah, well, I think, you know,
you're an eligible
woman. You've got tons of beef would you
be no don't worry sorry i'm married um okay i mean so is emmanuel macron but he's french yeah
i'm also technically still married but just a very long drawn out yeah divorce i think the
fact that you asked if i was interested shows how desperate you are actually.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You know you can
take all the beef
that you want, the big house
but at the end of the day
I'm a broken person.
The beef lottery
broke me.
And maybe actually thinking about it even Macron can't
fix you.
No, but we'd have fun trying, wouldn't we?
Well, if he's listening.
Bonjour.
Vous avez une bœuf?
Five years on,
and it is gratifying to see
the product of my labours and the labours of others.
I'm thrilled to be able to, and I could say this publicly now,
the tap water in Redditch is now safe to drink.
Within reason.
Sorry, when you say within reason.
Well, I mean... What do you mean within reason Well, I mean
What do you mean within reason?
It feels like the kind of thing where it's quite binary that, isn't it?
Is it safe to drink or is it not safe to drink?
Well, it's
Well
Safe to drink in that
Well, safe to drink
In that it's
Safe, for example, to
Safe to wash a dog
Probably A breed that doesn't molt i think
if it's got any sort of level of delicacy or fragility in its follicles i probably wouldn't
um just towel it down um yeah okay you could water water plants right um for your flowering
plants i would probably wouldn't.
If you've got a kitchen garden, yeah, not the edibles.
I wouldn't water your carrots in it, but certainly, you know, roses,
unless you're planning on trimming them and giving them as a gift.
I mean, plants that are going to remain in situ and not be touched and have no chance of coming into contact with a naked eye or the skin.
I get that, but, you know, washing a dog and watering non-edible plants,
neither of those things are drinking.
You said it was safe to drink.
Let's talk about drinking the water from the tap.
Well, do you need to drink water from the tap
when there are so many other options?
You know, when we have lilt
um for example so the official advice from the police is you should be drinking canned drinks
such as lilt pepsi i would i i would certainly uh i mean i'm not a personal fan of pepsi although
my sergeant is so yeah i expect yeah pepsi could you include pepsi
so given what you've said why did you think it was okay to to announce as you said well it just feels like great news it feels like we've really feels like a great hurdle that we've got over
you can wash a dog with the water is and that's great news that uh that we're able to say that
finally the water is able to to to the water is safe to drink within certain parameters,
which we've made very clear on the press release.
Can you tell me one situation in which it would be okay for the water
to pass the lips of a human and be swallowed?
That is what drinking is.
If you boil it, you might be all right.
Sorry, I've been told to say triple boil it.
Then you might...
Sorry, so triple boil, you boil, then let it cool again,
then boil, then cool again, then boil?
That's correct.
Right.
Yeah.
And then away you go.
But bottoms up.
Right.
So that's great news.
The average size of the neck glands of a child in Redditch
has shrunk down to almost normal levels.
I gather that the local grammar school is planning to phase back in school ties
in the next six years.
It's terrific news.
So all in all, steady progress.
The town still doesn't have any clouds.
I guess the question you're probably asking is what's next for Bob Crack, you know.
But my motto has always been
Crack don't look back. Bovine Farmers Union youth outreach officer Bob Crack was eventually hounded
out of Redditch by angry parents who felt that he could have done more to stop their children being
paid two pounds to clean up a newsworthy biohazard but the good news is he is going from strength to
strength. The good thing about being an outreach officer is that there's always, there's a lot of inner cities, you know.
So there's only about six or seven that I can't go back to now.
There's still loads more inner cities for me to go to.
Those children of today remain the farms of tomorrow.
Just maybe not from Redditch or Derby or don't get me started on what happened in Ipswich
but you know
there are plenty more inner cities out there
and Bob cracks a head into them
he's outreaching
you know
I'm currently at inner city Gloucester
and I've just set up an after school offal club
it's going from strength to strength
see time was in Gloucester
no one knew the difference between a spleen
or a colon or a cow's liver
but I tell you what now
that's all they're chatting about
you know they're in the playground swapping hooves
if you've got a child
between 7 to 14 in the Gloucester area
you know with a passing interest to the outdoors
then send them along
to my inner city after school
offal club and you know
don't worry you don't have to bring your own off or not for the first three weeks we'll send you
one of our awful starter packs which you know includes a very fun spleen game and uh yeah really
natty trendy kidney hat and don't worry you know that there's an awful bursary you know for those
that can't afford it you know you sign up for the Bursary, you'll get a liver in the post every Monday morning for two years, no questions asked. That's our guarantee. Just get in touch. I've got a website, www.bobcrack.co.uk.

To finish my conversation
with Sandy,
I asked her
whether she'd been back
to the model village
that she used to protect
with such care
and diligence.
No, I mean,
obviously I live
elsewhere now.
Yeah.
Well, what I'm going to show you
is the
Redditch Town Council
have set up a live stream, a webcam on the model village so that it can be seen by anyone around the world.
It's quite a nice idea.
There's currently no security guard there.
You haven't been replaced.
And I should be able to show you this iPad here.
There's a few webcams there.
You canams there.
You can see there... Oh, my God.
Yeah, it's absolutely overrun with youths.
I think what we're seeing there is a young man
pacing into the fire station.
Oh, God.
That's actually quite hard to look at.
Sorry, could you put it away and you just have to think if you'd never bought that lottery ticket the defilement of this much beloved local monument
and a monument to things being small and miniature and not taking up too much room and kind of
not being this big ostentatious palace like you live in now but
being actually a miniature version of of a community and it's literally being pissed on as we speak
oh it's live stream
as she watched the stream of the video and the stream of hot teenage piss. She became philosophical.
I feel like I'm looking at myself.
I feel like I'm looking at what I've become.
Are you the teenager or the fire station? I'm the piss.
I'm the piss.
a big thanks to sandy trevelyan bob crack and dci dexter whatley for speaking with me a dramatized version of the events starring kenneth branner as sandy bob bob dexter and the

get over to the website now where you can find all the usual stuff, as well as our off-topic section, where this month former German Chancellor Angela Merkel gives us an exclusive look into her
private collection of towels. So, until next time,
beef out.

I'm sure you've noticed how giant corporations are controlling more and more about what we consume,
whether it's our food, our news, or even the shows we enjoy.
The Greatest Generation is a show that stands up to big Star Trek and says no.
We can laugh about costumes that fit too tightly in the groin area.
We can make a Star Trek podcast that's basically only about that.
The Greatest Generation,
the show for free and independent thinkers
about Star Trek.
And the groins of different costumes.
Reviewing every episode in order.
So subscribe to The Greatest Generation
on MaximumFun.org.
You'll be doing your part
in telling the Star Trek industrial complex
that they can't control your mind.
