Oh, it's number 15. It's a 15. Is 15 anything?
It's a multiple of 5. I dated someone...
Who was 15?
Who was 15 years old.
It's a hell of a time to drop that on the old podcast, Phil.
Well, you know, that's the nice thing about podcasts is that there's an element of trust there that doesn't exist in other media.
I dated a girl recently who was of age.
She was actually a year older than me.
A year and a half older than me.
A full year and a half.
She was 16 years old.
No, she wasn't.
Okay, I've got to stop the jokes now.
She was about 29 and a half.
I was 28 at the time yeah um uh and she
as a child was so obsessed with the number five yeah and multiples of five that she had to go to
therapy you mentioned her briefly on an earlier episode have i yeah was it five was it episode
five oh god and episode five I'm sorry
This might be happening
Every time five appears
But I was annoyed with myself
Because I listened back to it
And I was like
Man I should really have
Pressed Phil more on this
Insane
Ladies
Maybe that's why
I don't remember
Having brought it up before
Okay
So hang on
She was so obsessed
With multiples of five
She had to go to therapy
Yeah
And what
I mean
Look I'm not a qualified therapist Phil What? What? I keep coming back here every week she has to go to therapy yeah and what I mean look
I'm not a qualified therapist Phil
what
what
I keep coming back here every week
I know I've been telling you
I've been recording these sessions
just for us
yeah
for your pieces
yes
on cool guys
you said it was your pieces
on really cool guys
it's something that makes cool guys cool
yeah
and we need to record a cool guy
a lot
weekly
for money
but how would you begin like if you were a therapist And we need to record a cool guy a lot Weekly for money But
How would you begin
If you were a therapist you'd have to be like
Why do you like
The number five
How do you start that
I have wondered about this aspect of being a therapist
Is that surely you just have to
You have no idea what's going to come in
I guess from time to time people give you the classics, I'm sad and...
I don't know, I'm anxious.
But a lot of the time people just come with very specific stuff that you've not come across before.
And now you're just winging it every time.
But also, how much as a therapist do you have to practice your poker face?
And not burst out laughing?
Or just be horrified
sorry that's where I go to straight away
well I mean like laughter if someone just goes
I just can't stop googling
pictures of
wristbands or whatever
just like insane or like something really
ridiculous obviously
shocked for like the harrowing
stuff but I think it's easier to hide shock than incredulity.
Yeah, I furrow my brow instantly.
And then realize I'm doing it.
You and I both sometimes have...
I've seen it referred to on the internet as faces that don't use their inside voice.
Right, yes.
Your face just immediately goes,
You're an idiot!
While your mouth is not saying anything and that's quite risky i don't know where where her therapist
would have started just telling her that the number five is a human invention and that it
has no real significance in the natural world what if you would say like um maybe maybe like
like say oh but like All numbers have this significance
Right like try and make it so that she sees
The patterns of enough numbers
That she can't focus on one
Like overload her senses
Yes yes yes
Like when they just throw someone into a pit of spiders
To kill them of arachnophobia
And they come out cured of their fear of spiders
But with a new
distrust for humans a new a new phobia of pits and therapists yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah so you
could say hey two is pretty good for patterns yeah lots of twos everywhere and they'd be like
oh yeah and then like you'd slowly you know build them up and then maybe they'd accidentally just
become one of those like really good mental mathematicians.
By which I mean in their head, not mentally ill.
Okay.
Not like a mental mathematician.
That's not a mathematician.
Although, I guess both.
Don't talk about the mathematician.
He's fucking mental.
That's a mental mathematician.
That's mental maths.
That could be a fun educational catchphrase.
That's mental maths.
That's mental maths.
His name's Matthew.
That's mental maths.
The mental maths.
Yeah. Yeah.
Anyway.
Was she cured?
Yeah, yeah.
Well, she now works for a mental health charity.
Right.
So it's all come around full circle.
She will have the worst origin story of anyone there.
Or the most fun, rather.
What are you in for?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
The prison story.
What are you in for? Oh, the prison story what are you in for oh you
know my tragedy and suicidal thoughts and i was like very dramatic and what about you i loved five
i loved five too much as a child but maybe like you never know how much like some compulsions
sound funny until you get a taste of how extreme they can be.
I remember reading about one of the symptoms for ADHD in children is obsessive nose picking.
But the diagnostic manual wasn't clear enough that it didn't just mean kids who pick their noses.
Because loads of kids pick their noses and do it daily.
It meant picking it to the point where you're almost down to the bone.
Like you're bleeding.
It's like really horrible.
But like when it's something like nose picking and you say excessive nose picking is a symptom.
Everyone thinks even a bit of nose picking is excessive.
Right, right, right.
So you need to be clearer.
I used to pick my nose a lot.
Did you have a special word for snot?
In your family or in your culture?
Did you just say don't pick your nose?
I don't think we had a word for it.
In South Africa, we don't say bogeys.
We said snollies.
Oh yeah, you told me snollies is horrible. It's so good.
It makes you sound like a snail.
Snolly.
It's such an evocative word.
It's for the ones where you pull them out and it's a real string of gloop.
Please.
And there's like a nuclear bit that looks like his brain.
There's like a darker bit that looks like maybe it's intestines or something.
Yes, yes, yes.
And it looks like it was going to grow inside.
Like a deveining of prawn.
Yeah, it was going to grow in your nose.
Horrible.
You were going to have a nose, baby. That's disgusting. Yeah, it was gonna grow in your nose. Horrible. You were gonna have a nose, baby.
Ugh, that's disgusting.
I hate it!
I really hate this podcast.
Snollies!
Last night, I
got home late from my
holiday, which is why it's late.
Sorry, Bud. Yeah, sorry,
Podbuds, that Pierre has a life
actually. This time for once actually that he's trying to enjoy
freedom of movement while he can
that's true
it would be cultured
imagine if all the pod buds
were brexiteers
and it would be
it would first of all be very strange if all
of the pod buds were brexiteers
and it would be even more strange that they did not mind that we weren't
those two things would be cool i guess it'd be very cool if they if that was the case um
that's very cool yes uh you so you had an illuminati dinner last night last night i
got home quite late from stansted Airport and ate five donuts.
Which I should not have done.
It was a pretty good night. What flavour?
Jam, boy. Jam?
Jam. Old stodgy
English jam donuts.
Just glaze, baby. Just a glaze ring.
Classic glaze.
My local donuttery doesn't
sell
American style.
They sell sacks of English lumps.
English lumpy donut sacks.
English won't eat anything unless it is solid all the way through.
Except Polo Mints.
They'll take a Polo Mint.
Yeah.
They'll take a holiday from solidity with a Polo Mint.
And who wouldn't?
That's very cool, man. They'll take a holiday from Solidity with a polo mint. And who wouldn't?
That's very cool, man.
If you were very powerful, would you make a habit of hosting dinners?
That would be quite fun.
If I was really powerful, I would host lots of sinister dinners.
With people of equal power to you or lesser power or more power are you trying to gain influence or show off influence or just like i'd want to vary it share inside jokes about having
influence i'd want to vary it up because like let's say i was like middle level influence
yeah like powerful but i wasn't at the top i would have a dinner party where like i could
i you'd look good wouldn't you because you'd have you'd have like the king or whatever the top person really high people and then you'd have like new up and coming
oh people and then the more powerful people are impressed because you seem in touch right like
hey i've got i've got my finger on the pulse look at this young cavalier right over here and then the young people
the new people
up and comers
would be like
wow you know the king
yeah yeah yeah
you just come out
smelling of roses
from every angle
that's true
yeah
that's cool
what would be the most
powerful thing you could do
at a dinner
and it doesn't have to be nice
like the
like a big power play
yeah yeah yeah
I'll move out at any dinner
yeah
at any dinner yeah at any dinner
stab a knife in my hand
and like not
not wins
ideally one that you're
hosting but yes
Phil can you pass
the knife
oh this knife
thunk
through the middle bone
thing
yeah yeah yeah
like not through the
flesh the easy way
just like sideways
oh god
and it's like yeah
you still want the knife
this knife huh it's a little busy
oh it's just a bit stuck actually sorry like what are you trying to you need help um what about if
you had a fancy restaurant with loads of people and you'd organized it and you ordered food and
had it placed in front of you and you never touched it and you ordered food and had it placed in front of you and you never touched it.
And you ordered good stuff too.
It arrived and you looked and you
were just talking the whole time and then it just got
taken away.
That would be spooky. It's a bit subtle.
I think not everyone would notice.
I think they would. Like a full steak
and lovely sides. I'd order the most expensive
bottle of wine they had and then just
smash it on the table. Like i'm the queen christening a table
well ordering everyone else's drinks that would be like a power play
uh-huh they'll have a gin and tonic one to share bring 12 straws
and keep topping it up
yeah yeah the drinks are free,
but you have to drink it that way.
Yeah, yeah, and it's like,
I want it to be like suckling pigs.
The strongest at the dinner table
will be the drunkest.
I get on the table,
and I put the G&T on my belly,
and then I suck it.
Yeah, yeah.
Drink!
You lie on your side
wearing a big wine breastfeeding kit,
and everyone just has to suckle at your bottles.
Very funny, crazy man who's very talented.
Adam Riches.
Oh, yes.
The sketch character.
Oh, he's a character comedian, isn't he?
Yeah, character comedian.
Adam Riches, I think in his first show where he won newcomer, I think.
Like 2013 or earlier
even. Anyway, he had a thing where
he wore like a kind of tit strap
thing of six yakults.
And like put little holes
in them and the audience had to like, in the
foil tops.
And someone from the audience had to like suckle at his
yakults. I'm pretty sure that
was him that did that.
Which is
very funny and repulsive
drink in a hot edinburgh venue yeah all the good bacteria being exposed to all those bright lights
corrupting them with a glitz of hollywood how how was your trip to rome rome was good
um i saw just enough touristy stuff uh but not so much that I wanted to shoot myself in the face
that's good, you see any churches?
oh, did I?
you bet your ass, I saw some caravaggios
in some churches
and I marveled at them
caravaggios
I love a caravagge
you love a caravagge?
I love a caravagge
a caravagge? I love a Caravagge. A Caravagge sounds like something horrible.
It sounds like a camper van you have sex with.
Or like a mobile brothel.
Yeah, yeah.
A Caravagge.
Caravagge is good.
Yeah, that sounds like the name that a kind of crude sex pest type guy would call his caravan.
Right?
I'm going to bring the Caravage to the festival.
You'd be like, alright, Steve.
Steve's so gross with his caravan.
And it's covered in velvet.
Yeah, and it's got like...
Sounds cool, actually.
He's got a guitar on the wall, but he can't play. He can't play it. It's covered in velvet. Yeah. And it's got like... Sounds cool, actually. He's got a guitar on the wall, but he can't play.
He can't play it.
It's not in tuned.
No, no, no.
The strings are still the plastic strings from the shop.
So he saw some caravaggers.
Saw some caravaggers.
Saw some churches.
Had a look around the old...
The big...
What's it called?
Not the forum.
I mean, I looked around that as well,
but the thing with the huge dome.
Oh, God.
The massive temple.
I think it's a church now as well.
Anyway, looked at all that cool shit.
That was nice.
That's not the one with the steps.
What are the steps called?
Spanish steps.
Spanish steps.
Yeah, I saw those.
Trevi Fountain?
No, didn't bother with the old fountain.
Yeah, it's nothing old.
It's a fountain
I went on holiday to Rome
with my family years ago
and went to the Trevi Fountain
and someone
this bald guy walked past
the photo we were trying to take and he apologised
and we looked and it was
the guy who plays The Shield
Do you know the TV show The Shield?
Yeah
He was also
The Thing
in the famous
in the Fantastic Four
really
I can't remember his name
so The Thing
he's like an American
Ross Kemp
yes yes yes yes yes
Ross Kemp
is that the name
the bald guy
yeah
yeah yeah
so The Thing
from Fantastic Four
photobombed you
yeah yeah yeah
in Rome
and we were like
sorry guys and we were like Sorry guys
And we were like
Wait that's the thing
That's the thing
That's very funny
That's good
That's quite the thing
That's good
That's
I like
Incidents with like
Low level
Celebrities
Yeah
I once met the guy
Who plays
Edmure Tully in Game of Thrones.
Oh, yes.
I came over and talked to you.
He was at the Soho Theatre bar.
Yeah, we had a chat to Edmure Tully.
He got a good laugh in the final episode.
Yes, yes.
He was a bit of comic relief in there from that guy.
Very tall.
Tall.
He looks like
an English man
he does
he looks like
he looks like
every other country
in the world
wants everyone
from England to look
yes
precisely
you want to point
at him and go
that's what we want
you either look
like that
or you look like
a big angry
red thumb
and you're a
football hooligan
here in the Alps you'll find there's nothing to worry about here in the Alps look like a big angry red thumb and you're a football hooligan. Here in the Alps you'll find there's nothing to cut Here in the Alps you'll find there's nothing to taste
Here in the Alps you'll find there's no one to talk to
And then you go to die alone in disgrace
Here in the Alps you'll find you want to be alone
Here in the Alps you'll find that that's not possible
Because I'm here, I'm also in the Alps, you'll find that that's not possible, because I'm here. I'm
also in the Alps with you, and I will follow you and try to eat your nose. In the Alps,
I'm going to look over your shoulder. Here in the Alps, I'm going to follow you to the
grave. Here in the Alps, I'm going to find you and lick your eyes I'm going to keep you awake at night with my screaming
Here in the Alps
A quick story of my name here, folks.
I was meant to be called Nathaniel,
but the French side of my family...
I know I have a French side of my family!
Couldn't pronounce Nathaniel.
So my mother had to pick another name at random from my hat,
and she pulled out Philip.
Really?
So I became Philip Nathaniel. Ah. Nathaniel's my middle name.
You were named like a Harry Potter character.
You had a naming hat. I was almost called Stetson.
That's a little joke that's never worked.
And we went on holiday to Rome
a good few years later.
And we were chanced by one of many churches that you visit.
We almost didn't go in because we've been into so many.
But we were like, ah, we've got momentum now.
So we went into this church.
And this church had a little tomb where they had two saints buried next to each other.
And we went down. And they were Saint Philip and Saint Nathaniel.
Ooh.
And they were best friends.
What?
Philip didn't believe in J-Dog.
Nathaniel's like, no, this guy's a shit.
Yeah.
Brought him along and convinced him.
And now they're buried together.
Spooky.
Saint Philip and Saint Nathaniel.
And then, next to them, Saint Wang. Imagine. him and now they're buried together spooky saint philip and saint nathaniel and then
next to them saint wang imagine imagine
wang the incongruous
the patron saint of being out of place yeah the patron saint of what's that doing
yeah you do just get exhausted from culture though
yeah you get to the point where you've seen so much culture you're looking at something that
is objectively one of the most beautiful objects human hands have ever made and you're just like
oh my feet hurt you're really ungrateful also a bit of a monoculture yeah right it's it's kind of
all the same it's all incredible but it's all
the same imagine this version of a transept and you go oh like uh it's it's it's it's a guy with
a beard and a robe looking at heaven going oh that's a lot of the art yeah people looking
shocked at heaven while heaven does stuff and the kind of things you convince yourself you're interested in
on a tour of a church
wow really that bit of glass
was actually stained 10 years
after that bit of glass
and you actually get yourself in a mindset where you're like
wow that's interesting
and you go home later and you think
that wasn't interesting I didn't give a shit
what's your
mastermind topic?
I've been asked to do celebrity mastermind
two or three times now. What?
And I just turned it down. No, Philip.
Because I'm actually quite stupid. I think I'd embarrass myself.
No, you have to be strategic
and pick something.
Well, because you only do your topic for like the first bit,
right? And then you have to do general.
I think it'd actually be quite embarrassing on the general.
Maybe, but if you pick something super specific then they sort of
seem to go okay well fuck you then and and really go deep exactly so i want to keep it vague
but you don't want it to be too vague either because then they could just ambush you yeah
i've gone through a few yeah the first instinct was batman and pick a period of batman yes batman
is your but it's kind of lame
and actually I think I wouldn't know all that
I think you could go
something in the comic book scene and go so deep
who was the original artist supposed to be for this
limited edition
and then I have picked
there's nothing worse than picking a potentially
embarrassing subject and then being bad at it
you have to nail it for it to be
cool then i thought
um the great american songbook because i used to sing all these jazz standards
and i still know all the words pretty much which would be a cooler subject but i think i think
that should be quite hard and maybe i actually have forgotten a lot of them then i thought because
i'm getting because i've been into quite into wine for like a year. Yeah. And I thought, ah, just tell them wine
and then I'll study it for a year.
This sounds like I'll be an alcoholic for a year.
I'll do it again.
I'm studying, get out!
I'm studying for most of my life.
I'm going to be on the TV for most of my life.
Just with those heart-like grey teeth. I would be tempted to do the goon show
or i would pick my dissertation topic which is 10th century denmark
and just desperately relive my third year of university in an attempt to call actually
because because i i think they're a bit a bit more uh cheesy about it on celebrity
yeah yeah they're trying not to
embarrass the fuck out of
people doing stuff for charity
there's an amazing video
of
the cricketer
hmm
is it Monty Panacea
sounds like a cricketer
I think it's
yeah
um
going on celebrity
mastermind
yeah and just like
giving the most
insanely wrong
answers to things
oh
isn't
and did you see
there's a video
I think it's on
normal mastermind
of like a guy
who on a specialist
topic just gets
nothing
really
like one
question
oh god
that's so embarrassing
and like the questions
and like you can see
in his face
he's just thinking
I didn't think
I needed to prep
for this
I thought I knew this you can see it go face he's just thinking I didn't think I needed to prep for this I thought I knew this
you can see it go through his eyes
where he's like
no I thought I knew this this is my specialist topic
Monty Panesar
Monty Panesar
when he just says mad shit
yeah
but he keeps a smile on his face the whole time
in what 97 film do a group of
unemployed men in Sheffield
become strippers for a night at their local working men's club?
The Dream Boys.
A 4-1-T.
In an 1819 poem, what season of the year does Keats describe
as a season of mists and mellow fruitfulness?
Oliver Twist.
Or Twist.
Oh, my God.
What season? Oliver Twist. oh my god okay what season what season what season was described as being mellow and full of fruitfulness oliver twist that is absolutely astonishing
to be fair it is it always strikes me as like and i'm not a big uh sports guy at all but whenever anyone's like god you'll never realize
you you you won't believe phil who turned out to be unbelievably fucking boring that person who's
only ever just done jumping and you go yeah because their whole childhood they would wake
up at four in the morning and go jump and do jumping and then they go to school but when you have that kind of focus
do you not have like so much time and desire to do so many other things when you're not doing
that one thing no because that's the only thing they do the only thing they care about the only
thing they care about like they're just they're just and the whole time they're in lessons of
other subjects when they're young they're just thinking jumping jumping jumping jumping i love
jumping and like they just don't have energy for anything else and they're just thinking jumping jumping jumping jumping i love jumping and like they
just don't have energy for anything else and they're just obsessed with it and that's why like
it's so you'd think that more olympians right when they retired at 36 because their bones are just
like we can't do this anymore they more of them would become pundits but few of them so few of
them have the ability to speak intelligently from a like being a pundit is a skill and it's a skill
they don't have because they were focused on jumping and it's just of all the people who
love jumping it's the very few who happen to also be good at being yeah commentators yeah i guess
and even then they can be terrible i i remember listening to it was a while ago world cup a while
ago and two of the the teams playing one of one was argentina um and the match was
so boring and the commentator had so little to say that at one point he actually went
argentina of course famed for its high quality beef
of course very good beef in Argentina.
Nope, nothing happened there.
Yes, very lean meat and not too expensive.
At least cricket seems to embrace that.
Because they're going This is all day
So we're going to sit and go
How do you have your scones
And there seems to be a lot of that kind of chat
It sounds like someone accidentally left a microphone
In someone's veranda
Yeah that is exactly the vibe
They go oh we kept recording
Oh no
After the game was over
No no that's the game
Whereas in football they do seem to just be like
and that the ball of course
crossing the line means it is counted
as a goal it's that level of
incredible
technical analysis that you get sometimes
yeah if you spend your life
doing one physical activity there's very
little room for charisma
yeah yeah although doing one physical activity, there's very little room for charisma.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Although... It's also weird when you see someone like that,
where you go,
what season is full of fruitfulness?
And they just go,
Oliver Twist.
And you go,
what did you hear?
Did you hear book?
But also,
there are questions he passed on,
which meant that
he obviously thought Oliver Twist was worth a go.
He knew he could pass.
That's a very good point.
He could have passed and he went,
I'm pretty sure there's at least a 1% chance
that...
Oliver Twist was a season.
That out of spring, summer, autumn, winter,
Oliver Twist was a season that out of spring, summer, autumn, winter Oliver Twist what would happen in Oliver Twist season?
everyone eats gruel
and feeds the birds
that's from Mary Poppins
is it?
feed the birds
Mary Poppins, I thought it was Oliver Twist
that's the funniest is it you've ever done
is it?
is it?
what?
yeah feed the birds is one of them I get my depressing Victorian Oliver Twist is kick the Twist that's the funniest is it you've ever done is it is it what yeah Peter Burris I get my depressing
Victorian
Oliver Twist is
kick the dog
that's the
kick the dog
top end's a punt
I reckon that was
probably a real
busking
turn
in Victorian times
it's come
kick this dog
yeah
beat this dog to death
only a shilling
What do they sing in Oliver Twist
They sing who will buy my strawberries
And my roses or whatever the fuck
Consider yourself at home I think that's
They have a whole market scene where they're all
Trying to sell shit
Isn't there a matchstick girl or something
Oh
Come buy my
Little nose Come buy Come by my little nose
Come by my itty bitty toes
My body's for sale
Cause I'm a little urchin girl
Come by my fingernails
It's a dark musical when you watch it as an adult.
It's a lot darker than you remember.
It is dark.
To letters, emails, phone calls,

Hi guys he says
Traditional
Weirdest un-weird thing
Toenail clippings
Just chucking bits of yourself in the bin or down the toilet

Keratin
That's why it says keratin
Are you sure that's good for you
Creatine
Right

Okay
That's quite bad for you I think
I'm sure
That's not good
If the picture On your food Is Of a human That's creatine. That's quite bad for you, I think. I'm sure that's not good.
If the picture on your food is of a human, of a human's body,
then it's not good for you.
They couldn't find a more natural photo than what it might do to your body.
There's no plant that could go on this.
If the picture on your food is of the food's effects on your own body,
like blotches, someone with a blotchy face.
Yeah.
Yeah, like the picture on a wine bottle isn't someone with red lips and grey teeth falling over.
Oh, that's me in a bit.
Yeah.
I think that's good.
And he says, keep jacking it, Frank.
I think that's a good point It is creepy
To have
Like
What are you doing today
Oh I need to have
A couple of hours spare
Because I'm going to go
Have bits of myself
Shaved off
By a stranger
Yeah
That is creepy
Who I've now built
A bit of a rapport with
But
Yeah a little
And I don't know
What they do
For all I know
They keep the bits of me
That they cut off And store it Yeah I don't care And I don't know what they do. For all I know, they keep the bits of meat that they cut off and store it.
Yeah.
I don't care.
I actually don't care.
I've thought about it.
I don't mind what they do with it.
My grandma used to cut her own hair and fingernails and so on and burn them in the fireplace.
To avoid curses.
Of course.
Yeah.
Like a proper African.
Yeah, I'm sure there's a lot of that sort of thing in Malaysia too.
Zara gets back in touch
Of the cool name
Dear Phil and Pierre
As it happens
I'm seeing Phil's Edinburgh show
With my parents
On the 22nd of August
At the Fringe
Ooh
I'll make sure to turn up
For that one
The same day I get
My GCSE results
Ooh
So
So I could either be
A formal celebration
Or a consolation Well this is it she says so if i do
fuck my exams you might have another german lady open brackets mother shamefully staring at you in
the non-kinkiest way possible and a 16 year old shouting warnings down the aisles about listening
to podcasts just so you'll know uh what's happening uh also i wouldn't tell my dad which
episode you replied on,
so he listened to full episodes until he found it.
And now you have a new listener.
Hello, Zara's dad.
Oh, hey, ZD.
Hey, ZD.
But I did tell him to avoid Bud Poo.
Yes, yes.
So you said, okay, thank you, Zara.
Good luck for your exams, Zara, if you're still doing them.
Bud Poo was NSFP. Good luck for your exams, Zara, if you're still doing them. Bud Poo was N-F-S...
N-S-F-P.
Not suitable for parents.
Not suitable for pop-pop.
For papa.
For papa.
Not suitable for papa.
That sounds like a play.
I want to write a play called Not Suitable for Papa.
Not Suitable for Papa is a funny play.
It sounds like a silly farce about everyone
trying to soothe something over with papa any any kind of traditional way of talking about your
parents sounds gross and funny papa and pater and mater and like mommy and daddy and stuff
horrible my father referred to himself as Daddy to us.
Until way too old.
In the third person.
So I was like 16.
And he'd be like, Daddy's very busy at the moment.
I said, Dad, you have to stop.
You have to stop doing that.
It's strange.
I thought you meant he was going to say, like, Daddy loves pasta.
Creepy.
No, it would only ever be when he was, like, exasperated.
He's like, Daddy's very tired.
It's gross.
It's weird.
That is gross.
I hated it.
Yeah, that is creepy.
It's horrible.
But he genuinely didn't understand.
Why?
Why?
That and why I insisted on getting rid of the hairs in my monobrow
He was like, hey why? It looks quite nice
Really?
That was when I finally thought, you know what
I'm not going to go to my father for fashion advice
He doesn't
Know all the things I thought he did
His judgement is not
As infallible as I had once assumed
He's not a god
No He calls himself daddy in the third person And he thinks monobrows are quite fetching what he did. His judgment is not as infallible as I had wanted. He's not a god. No.
He calls himself daddy in the third person
and he thinks monobrows are quite fetching.
Really? Yeah. So he loves
God, what's that
artist?
Oh, I was about to say
Eva Braun.
Do you think that's what Hitler's mustache was?
His monobrow connector fell
Under his upper lip
Under his nose
See this is why I'm worried about my brain Pierre
I cannot remember
And I went to her
Frida Kahlo
Frida Kahlo
I typed in Mexican artist
And the fourth suggested result is
Mexican artist with unibrow
Yeah
So this has happened before
Is it unibrow or monobrow?
What's the difference between uni and mono?
I think unibrow is American
And monobrow is British I have difference between uni and mono? I think unibrow is American and monobrow is British.
I have no idea.
I've made that up.
Okay.
I just threw a fact out there.
So your dad is a massive Frida Kahlo fan.
That's interesting.
I think that looks nice.
Big old commie Frida Kahlo.
She had...
Was she?
Yeah, she had...
I think...
No.
She had Lenin come and stay in her house in Mexico
after he had been exiled
right
and that's where he got the idea
of uniting the people
was her monologue
uniting the left and right
yeah
oh
he looked at her
pointing right in her face
oh
or she was like
see
yeah
and I don't even let
my eyebrows have individuality
but
Mr. Lenin
the answer
is right in front of you do do do do I But Mr. Lenin, the answer is right in front of you.
Do do do do.
I said Mr. Lenin there because I don't know
what his first name was.
Vladimir. I should have just
gone with Vladimir. Yeah. Why did I go
with Vladimir? I can't remember what his
Vladimir Illerovich
something else. Because
Lenin's like his cool name, nickname.
Vladimir is like Mohammed. Yeah. Everyone goes yeah, obviously, that's like his cool name nickname Vladimir is like Mohammed
yeah
everyone goes
yeah obviously
you asked your first name
what's your
what's the other name
that I can call you by
James gets in touch
hey buddily fluids
nice
very good
very good buddily fluids
love the podcast
keep smashing it
okay
which could be about
our willies
or it could be about
the podcast
yeah if you're
really bad at wanking why isn't this working really like too hard smacking your dick around
there must be someone out there where that's their main way of doing it
and that's what they like yeah i mean statistically statistically uh me and my
buds were on our way to the lake district from Nottingham when my friend's bin bag's car
Ha ha ha
Yeah
So that's a bad car for anyone who's
Not completely up to date with our vernacular
Broke down halfway
After several hours a tow truck arrived
With what we assumed was the intention of towing us
To our destination
An enormous man got out of his truck
Asked us where we were heading and promptly called his boss
And started berating him.
Berating the boss? Yeah.
After a tense five minutes, he returned to us
and said that this was the evening he had decided to take
a stand against this dickhead
of a boss, and was basically going to leave
us stranded to make a point. What?!
He then stood
there like he was
waiting for a fucking slow hand clap
or something, as if the strength of his convictions was going to magically carry us to our destination.
We stood in shocked silence until my friend said,
Okay, thank you.
And he got back in his truck and drove away.
Fucking hell.
That is the most insane...
That's a murderer.
That's amazing.
For him to expect them to go,
that's right, man, you stick up for yourself.
Hey, good for you.
We'll die here.
Fucking hell, that's like some The Road shit.
That's funny as well,
that he would assume solidarity.
That is some Cormac McCarthy stuff.
So he has an authoritarian libertarian.
Okay.
Authoritarian.
All cars should be fitted with a device to record
whenever someone pops their horn
and the situation leading up to it.
I totally assumed you meant farts in the car.
That's what this podcast has reduced me to.
Yes, that's nice.
The data will be sent to a panel for review
and if deemed inappropriate, they shall be punished.
Punishments will comprise of highly trained stealth operatives
sneaking up on you and blasting a car horn right in your ear
several times a day for a set amount of weeks,
depending on the original offence.
Good stuff.
You should absolutely have a finite number of horns you're allowed to sound.
And if they run out, you have to explain yourself.
And if you end up in a very dangerous situation
when you finally need your horn, and you hit it it and it goes because you've run out it's
boy you cried wolf in it yeah yeah and you deserve it and you get held responsible i don't think i've
ever beat my horn my entire life maybe once but yeah i'm not sure you know i think once in my life
ever yeah um his most libertarian human should be allowed to shit outside freely bag it up and
you're good to go
I cannot find
myself agreeing
with that
why should dogs
have all the fun
eh Phil
I don't know why
he's directed that
at you
fucking a dog
there's a lot of
crossover here
isn't there
there's fucking a
dog
there's me
shitting on
a plastic hammock
and running around with it in my hand.
Yeah, that's what he means.
Yeah, that might be it.
He says, sincerely jacking it, James.
Oh yeah, you must do it sincerely.
You can't fake that sort of thing.
It knows.
People will know.
Yes.
And I think, yeah, that's...
That used to be the way people did it.
You could just plop in the road, medieval style.
Yeah, open defecation.
It still happens.
There's a real problem in, like, India.
And China.
Yeah.
Apparently.
Because people just get fucking sick.
You get sick.
Also, there's, like, no decent public toilets, I guess.
It's all, you know, like, the infrastructure's not very good.
I think it's in India
where it's called
a helicopter
it's people who
shit in a plastic bag
it's a slum thing
and you wind it up
and yeah
and you throw it
and you just spin it
and fly it into the air
like Thor's hammer
you just
you can only spin
your own turds
if you're worthy
so everyone else
are really heavy
they just go
thunk
so George
Four Acres
our friend George
gets in touch
dear boys
just Phil being
loudly fucked
by loads of bees
oh come on
what's this
stinging barbs
and mouth parts
this time then
oh from last time
yeah
because he accused us
of being full of
filthy fetishes
and then
I mean in fairness
you did get fucked
by a load of bees
last episode
you don't know how it worked
maybe I was fucking them
keep a jack in it
you filthy animals he says
PS a bees mouth is made up of in
layman's terms absolutely loads
of horrible complicated tongues
I've attached a picture for your reference
I'm sure you'll be able to look to
tumblr in short order to find a cartoon
film being set upon by countless
labial palps
whilst cartoon Pierre
watches it all going down in his pants
hashtag fetish wang
fetish spelt with a ph
hashtag fetish wang we have our first hashtag there
yeah let's
let's make it our last
and actually let's even not remember that one
how many tongues did it have
does a bee have
let's see I scrolled away from it because it was horrible
looking
like a lot Does a bee have? Oh, let's see. I scrolled away from it because it was horrible looking.
Like a lot.
One, two, at least three or four.
Now that's what I call a bee-jay.
Yeah!
Can you put like firework sound effects on that, please? Yeah, I will.
And trumpets and all kinds. Yeah!
Hi there, pub bods.
As a catchphrase that inspired a generation as the catchphrase
that inspired a generation jacks on
and has now resulted in
drive-by keep jacking it's and open
correspondence keep jacking it's
I'm just wondering what the worst outcome for Phil would be. Someone declaring to him, just jacking it's and open correspondence keep jacking it's just wondering what the worst outcome for Phil
would be someone declaring
to him just jacked it
or for your epitaph
to read keep jacking it thanks for the weekly
poo and filth laughs keep jacking it Frank
is it illegal to
give someone an epitaph they didn't want
I've always wondered this
that would be interesting would that be slander
technically
well you can't li that be slander technically ooh
well you can't
or libel
you can't libel
or slander the dead
is it
the second someone dies
you can go
they were a pedo
the whole time
and everyone just has to go
maybe
we don't think so
but maybe
keep jacking it
on my
tombstone
would actually be
I'd quite like that actually
yeah
that's pretty good that would be fun there would be a lot'd quite like that actually Yeah that's pretty good
That would be fun there would be a lot of tourists
To that particular grave
Wait no I don't think that at all what if my kids are there
They're really sad
If I die now I wouldn't mind I think
I think that would be kind of funny
But if I'm like old
And I die a really dignified death
With my family around me
You've become like a really respected author and public figure.
And so much so that people have sort of forgotten
my previous life. And then out of nowhere
this sketch phrase comes up.
I don't know, he said he wants to keep
jacking it on. He didn't explain. And he said in gold
on granite. They were his
final words. And it's also on there in like
every language of the world. Like when
they send something into space.
Like wrapping around the headstone really tasteful. In between
each translation is like
a circle dot.
Yeah, so you can tell, oh that's separating.
That's the Arabic, that's Hebrew.
That's, even
in like Mayan hieroglyphs, they find
all of them ending in an exclamation mark.
The Spanish one has the one
at the beginning, obviously. Yeah, of course the people know to be surprised
and excited already uh billy says hey there pud bods um oh hang on
uh billy says hey there uh pud bods been listening pud bods pud bods
yeah
okay
um
been listening
since episode one
oh well done
and very much
enjoying weekly
bursts of bud
okay
i'm not phased
at all by the
bum bum poo poo
pee pee chat
and i'm in fact
pleased that phil
was very open
about his experiences
collecting medical
samples
kudos to you guys
for overcoming
silly taboos
yeah i'm trying
to destigmatize
the poo time the stink i to destigmatize the stink.
I'm destigmatizing.
Yeah.
Thank you very much, Billy, for giving us a way to be woke about this now.
Yeah.
Finally we've got an angle.
Yeah.
Some choose the bum-bum life,
and some have a bum-bum life of sorts thrust upon them.
That's true.
I have ulcerative colitis.
Some are born to bum bum. Yeah.
Some are
bum bum to born. That doesn't mean anything.
Some are born out the bum. Yeah, that's true.
If you read some newspapers.
I was born out my own bum!
It's always like a red top you've never heard of.
It's like a homeless man ate my dog
or whatever the hell. It doesn't make any sense.
I have ulcerative colitis
and this has meant getting several endoscopy
procedures over the years.
Sometimes this involves the nurse administering an enema
which then gives you a rather
spectacular movement to clear out the area
ready to make a movie in there.
Okay.
I think the okay thank you
to the person who just gave you the enema
is probably the weirdest I can imagine. Okay, thank you. Okay okay thank you to the person who just gave you the enema is probably the weirdest I can imagine.
Okay, thank you!
Okay, thank you!
But what else could one say in that situation?
So what's just happened? They've just filled you up with something that is going to make you poop loads.
To flush you out, yeah.
So you're on your way to the toilet.
I think they hoover it out of you.
No.
Yeah, I think so. I think they're just all in one big pipe.
Where's the fun in that?
I don't know.
I'm not sure. What else could one say in that situation? You've just made an enema
for life. That's pretty good.
And a real
mistake medically, if they have.
Keep up the excellent pods. Maybe don't keep
jacking it, because that could have gone in my eye, actually.
Cheers,
Billy. Thank you, Billy.
Oh, Billy. What are we going to do with you
Now a personal attack here from Beth
On you Phil
Although maybe she didn't know it
Dear Px2
My uncoolest cool thing
Of all the cool things
This is the least cool
Is massive over ear headphones
Excuse me
Which Phil by the way loves
Phil always has a head like a big radio
man from the past. You've also got big old
headers. I keep them at home and shame.
But they just sound so
good. They are better. You can't go
back to the old
buds. The old ways.
You can't...
I can't listen to Budpod on little buds.
I can't...
You can't appreciate all the poo jokes i can't bud bud pod you can't
bud bud pod pod i can't have a pair of bud pod buds beth says they make your head look enormous
and people spend mad money to use them to look cool and yet we just wear them around their neck
all day however they are cool due to the super good sound quality and comfiness so love the
podcast keep jacking it beth how unnerved would you be if you borrowed
someone like huge
headphones and the
sound was terrible
oh and it was like
and you just looked at
them like what and
then and then the next
thing you see is just a
fence coming to your
face and you black out
yeah and you wake up
yeah yeah yeah and
you're in a basement
yeah and it's just you
you hanging by your
wrist and you look around and it's just
loads of big headphones hanging
from the ceiling
and you're like
what is going on
and you hear someone coming down the stairs
and it's the guy
and he says
oh they sounded bad today
and he goes how does this sound
and he starts playing
Beethoven's Fifth
through all the headphones
that are hanging
from the ceiling
and so you can just
kind of hear them
very lowly
and it's like
you can never really
yeah it's all tinny
and it all sounds
very far away
and then
the guy goes
now you know
now you know
and he goes up
back up the stairs.
How would you feel?
I'd feel regret.
Yeah.
I guess you'd take Ash in a try this guy's headphones on.
Ross gets in touch.
Hey, Ross.
I'm loving the podcast.
I've been listening to it while my ween is napping.
Okay. So he's Scottish and he has a child. Yeah. Maybe he's a Limmy fan. I'm loving the podcast I've been listening to it while my ween is napping okay
so he's Scottish
and he has a child
yeah
maybe he's a Limmy fan
maybe he's a Limmy fan
my ween
I'd like to submit
my coolest uncool thing
being a parent
which we've said already
okay yeah yeah yeah
that has come up
yeah
we acknowledge that
as a cool uncool thing
he says it's cool
because people admire
your patience and fortitude
but it's uncool
because you spend
the first two years
of your child's life
up to your knees in excrement
Which is probably true
Yeah but very much
In this podcast's wheelhouse
Yes very much so
In fart related news
The word for bread in Korean is
And then there's a Korean symbol
And in brackets
Bebang
Which is definitely reminiscent of a fart
Keep strangling the snake, Ross
Actually we don't condone violence towards animals
Even the most violent animals
So we're going to have to cancel the I'm Afraid Ross
Ross is cancelled
Ross is cancelled I'm afraid
Ruri gets in touch
Spelt Ruhari
Oh lovely
Dear Phil and Pierre, i love the podcast and look
forward to hopefully seeing you both at the edinburgh fringe hopefully make it so dear
listeners phil and i will both be at the fringe for the whole month in edinburgh in august the
whole fucking time the whole time we're idiots we are idiots um i just wanted to contribute to the
list of uncoolest cool things you're compiling.
My uncoolest cool thing is losing your virginity specifically for men, as I can't speak for women.
You're right, Ruri.
You can't.
Losing your virginity is the single most important goal in a teenager's life.
And you are naturally making it super cool to achieve.
However, it usually ends up being embarrassing or even traumatic.
And many people try very hard in order to accomplish this feat to the point of desperation.
That's true.
That's good, that's good.
I feel the unfortunate need to give you an example.
Please.
I really hope this ends with an okay, thank you.
My own story...
My own story happened...
That could have gone in my eye!
Really?
My own story happened when I was 19
okay
first of all
I was very shy
and had to be almost
dragged into the bedroom
in order for this to occur
that doesn't sound good
which is probably why
it happened so late
which is fairly
emasculating to begin with
however
it all went wrong
later on
during my attempt
to climax
I was struggling
to finish
I'm sorry
is Ruri a guy
Ruri's a guy
but he said I can't
speak for... Oh,
he's speaking on behalf of men. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Sorry, I mixed those up. You're always mixing
it up because you're so... I don't
see gender. You don't see
gender, race, colour,
clothes.
Don't see... I'm blind.
I lost my eyes. Sorry, yeah. They were cut out of my head.
That's a faster way of saying that
I should have opened the podcast with that
It's a bit of a development
It all went wrong later on during my attempt to climax
I was struggling to finish
Like he's climbing a mountain
Base camp
I'll rest here for the night
I was struggling to finish
Due to nerves
And I tried to give it a bit more effort.
Yeah. Due to my efforts and
strain, my nose proceeded to burst.
Ooh, wow.
Wow.
Blood went all over the poor woman
and we had to stop so she could clean
herself up and I could deal with the blood profusely
pouring out of my face.
I feel like this is what you guys would call a full 10 on the Louis scale.
I think that's true.
Yes, of effort.
10 out of 10 Louis is trying to climax so hard that your face bursts.
You start bleeding the opposite end of your body.
That's how all-consuming this effort is.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Your body just knew that you wanted fluid to shoot out in some way.
Just the idea of him going...
Needless to say, but we have been happily married for two years now.
You're joking.
And I still haven't heard the end of it.
Sincerely, Ruri.
Bloody hell.
Well, literally.
So they form like a blood pact, essentially.
That's metal.
That's a really like death metal.
Oh my days.
A blood fuck pact.
Wow.
You will lose your virginity, my son.
And the lady who you bleed upon shall be your bride.
That was the most unexpectedly sweet ending to that story.
sweet ending to that story.
But yeah, that's like something Carl fucking Drogo in
Game of Thrones and Mick
would have to do to...
It's a ritual.
That's the most romantic way
for two goths to get married.
They had a virginity...
Because losing your virginity
is like a sacrifice.
And it's like sex and blood
and yeah, like a bond.
Yeah, that's fucking cool. I hope you have devil horns on your rings on your fingers not your assholes uh although that's so painful
be a funny tattoo not worth it but for that one one the one time it actually gets a laugh
pretty funny i'd have a tattooed on the inside of my butt cheeks like um two eyes and two eyebrows above my asshole so if
you pull my um buttocks apart it looks like a face going
you try and make it so that your own asshole is sarcastically impressed that someone's finally
managed to convince you to open up your asshole oh Ooh, look at you! Opening up Phil's bum.
Well, ooh, you'll be so proud.
Look who it is.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
And on this street we have a beautiful church
put up by Pope Crazy the 50th.
And he made this a church so that he had the place to go to church and to pray but to have
enough privacy and room for all of the sex workers he would have a sex with and
inside this church is why they are the paintings of the many sex workers from scenes in the Bible.
So it fits the theme.
And next, literally two feet away, is another church put up by Pope Sexy the 9000th.
And he had this church built on top of the childhood home of his worst enemy from school.
on top of the childhood home of his worst enemy from school.
He swore revenge for being bullied,
for having too easy an erection in the class.
And so he grew up and he find this man and he kill him and his whole family
and bury him under the church.
And over here we have a big building
that Mussolini made to frighten
minorities and it worked, very scary and over here we have a bridge
the reason it is red is because the blood of so many people was spilled
when they were building it deliberately to give it the color red and that is why okay
okay thank you
for all your
correspondence everyone
there's still a lot of you
to get to
Alfredo
Jay
Barakvet
Tom
Adelaide
and Chris
Adelaide
yeah
what a name
we will be getting to you soon but thank you very much
thank you for all of your
input
we were trying to think of a code question
weren't we for the podcast
oh yeah so basically other podcasts
most notably
the John Robbins and
Ellis James podcast have
the sort of American Marine style identification code question of, are you on email?
Yeah, they say, are you on email?
And then the person says, you absolutely have to be these days.
And that's how two suspected podcast fans identify each other.
Yeah.
Now, ideally, I'd want ours to emerge organically.
Yeah.
But we were thinking today,
none of our current organically arisen catchphrases work.
You couldn't say them to a stranger.
You couldn't say,
have you been jacking it?
Yeah, yeah.
Unless they happen to be working on a car at the time
and you can pass it off as being about that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I hope you have been keeping on jacking it it's also hard to phrase in that grammar are you a pilot are you a pilot that's funny are you a pilot my work are you a pilot
how are you going to get to work now that could be pretty funny um but the answer would be how
am i supposed to get yeah i guess the answer would be yes how am I supposed to get... I guess the answer would be, yes, how am I supposed to get to work now?
That could be it.
Listeners, if you have any really bright ideas, send them in.
Why not?
Otherwise, we'll just wait for it to emerge.
And please don't then send in, do you listen to Bud Pod?
We know what kind of sarcastic twats you are.
And now that I've said that i realize we're gonna get so fucking
yeah but well people will definitely use the hashtag filth wang or whatever it was fetish
fetish wang fetish way um and also like uh we can't obviously it needs to be a catchphrase
that you could say to a stranger and there'd be no consequences so if you said have you ever
pooed on a plastic hammock that could start a fight in a pub if you're not careful so yeah
watch out for that
but otherwise
yeah
just keep jacking it
I guess
and
it's becoming more
and more fun
to say that
in a way
where the obscenity
of it
absolutely no longer
registers
yeah it's quite dangerous
isn't it
it is dangerous
it's a dangerous game
we play here on Budpod
a dangerous game
for you
for you
for your sakes
for your sakes thank you very sakes. Thank you very much
for your correspondence. Keep on jacking it and
get in touch. Thebudpod at gmail.com or
at thebudpod on Twitter. Okay, bye!
Bye, thank you. Bye-bye.
