It's Budpod 173.
173.
I am sweaty.
Yep, it's a living hell today.
An absolute living hell.
Let me just adjust this microphone because there is sweat
literally dripping from my face onto the microphone.
Absolutely ghastly.
Currently Pierre and I are somehow very heroically Surviving through the UK heatwave
Today is the hottest day
The UK has ever been in the history of the UK
Ever, ever, ever
The last record breaking day was
2019
It got up to 38.5 in Cambridge
Yep
And the record was broken today
Before noon, as we record on Tuesday the 19th of July,
it is just getting hotter and hotter with every minute.
This is how great Britain is.
We are breaking our own record every minute.
They've recorded 40.2 degrees in Heathrow
and it's only going up, up, up.
The key as well is
if you want to terrify yourselves, listeners,
look up wet bulb temperature.
Wet bulb?
Yeah, because the actual temperature
isn't the point when it comes to human survival.
The point, if you want to know how it feels
or will be inside a human body,
you need to look up wet bulb temperature.
And it's worse. it's worse than you think
if you take that into account
I want to look it up now, wet bulb
it's not a gross picture is it, wet bulb temperature
get those bulbs
get them soaked
wet bulb temperature
is the lowest temperature that can be reached under
current ambient conditions
by the evaporation of water.
So it's the temperature you can be
when you're trying to stay cool.
So a high temperature is fine in theory
if the wet bulb temperature is low.
Okay.
Because it can be fought against,
e.g. like a dry heat is easier to deal with i think um
but if the wet bulb temperature approaches a certain level you will get hotter and hotter
despite trying to cool down and so there's like no cure as it were and you just die
oh yeah so there is a point where if it gets hot enough it's just like
that your your body just gets hotter the more it tries to enough, it's just like that. Your, your body just gets hotter.
The more it tries to cool down,
it's like traps on itself in a sort of death loop.
Okay.
A positive feedback loop.
Yeah,
exactly.
So,
um,
that,
that temperature has been reached sometimes in the day in parts of India
already.
I believe death Valley,
of course,
Sahara desert,
whatever,
but,
um,
it's not good.
I would say it's bad news.
Not to be too controversial.
Try to be balanced here on BudPod.
But I think being cooked to death is bad.
We're anti-murder, we're anti-being cooked to death, Phil.
We are.
We're anti-humans murdering other humans,
and we're anti-the sun murdering humans.
Exactly. This is the only officially anti-mur murdering other humans, and we're anti-the sun murdering humans. Exactly.
This is the only officially anti-murder podcast.
It's true.
It's frankly disgusting that there aren't more.
It's disgusting.
I'd be sweating with fury
if I wasn't already sweating with normal things.
It's weird that it's so hot, Pierre,
because climate change isn't real.
So I don't understand.
Hang on a minute.
Yeah, I like all the people sort of going like,
it's just a bit of sun.
Just a bit of sun, just a bit of sun.
And like, the most satisfying thing is Aussies,
like Australians in Australia being like, what's the big deal?
And it's like, first of all, the big deal is half of your country is on fire every year.
So you know perfectly well what the big deal is.
The big deal is most of your country is literally uninhabitable already,
before global warming.
Before global warming, it was too hot to live in the entire middle
of the big biscuit you live on.
So you should also be upset that the bits that are
livable are now on fire okay secondly very satisfying that the australians that actually
live in the uk are like very sincerely like nah nah mate it's different here like no all the
buildings are made of stone and there's no air con and it's like wet. The air is wet. Everything in the UK is dense and heavy
and just holds heat.
I got back last night.
I was in Bavaria over the weekend.
Oh.
Little yodel?
Little yodel in some leather hosen?
Ja.
It was very good.
Sehr gut, ja.
Did you go to München?
I went to München. Grüß aus München? I went to München.
Grüß aus München.
I went to München.
I went into like proper,
like postcard Germany bits.
People are wearing Lederhosen
and just going about their day.
I'm not kidding.
And everyone drinks beer
out of massive one-liter Steins glasses.
It's just sausages and pork pork I ate a pig knuckle
Pig knuckle with sauerkraut
And there's a potato dumpling
There called the canoodle
You finally had a knuckle sandwich
I finally
I didn't have any bread unfortunately
But a pig's knuckle is delicious.
I mean, I think when an animal's knuckle is delicious,
we are meant to eat it.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
If you go, okay, what if we just try and eat only the bit
that we associate with gristle and violence?
And you're just like,
probably it's just born to be food.
It's also like a Chinese,
a Chinese eaters paradise,
a pig knuckle.
Cause it's,
cause it's a weird cut.
We are already on board.
It's a weird cut.
It's got meat,
fat and cartilage. It's nothing like cut. It's got meat, fat, and cartilage.
There's nothing like a bit of cartilage.
Oh, daddy likes cartilage.
You don't like cartilage?
Mmm, a bit of cartilage.
I just don't like the noise you made.
I've learned to love cartilage
throughout adventures together.
Oh, good, good, good.
Oh, yes, we eat tendon.
Yeah, there's tendon and cartilage.
Yeah? Mummy like. But anyway, so I was in Bavaria for a weekend it was a lot of fun and it was hot there but it wasn't
this hot and we got got back i got back last night at around midnight and i entered my bedroom
and things were just hot i touched the radiators like, what?
Has this been on?
And it hadn't been on.
And it just soaked up the heat from the air.
Yeah.
And was warm.
My bed was warm.
The floor was warm.
It had been hours since the sun had set.
But everything was still warm.
It was like a nightmare.
The UK, and it's pretty shitty building regulations but
like its culture of building is to build on the assumption that at some point the ice age is
coming back because people in the uk are obsessed with not being cold which is why like they go on
holiday every two weeks to somewhere hot no matter what time of year it is in the UK. They're obsessed with heat.
It's weird.
You and I are anti-heat because we're from hot places.
We know that this is what it's like.
But it means that every house is built with the idea of like,
well, of course, an Englishman's home is his castle.
And on January the 7th, for example,
they should just be in fucking snowboard,
like little fucking beach shorts
and a fucking string vest,
and that should be enough.
Yeah, yeah.
It is an affront unto the English sense of dignity
to have to adjust for the cold.
But hot.
Hot's good, no matter how hot.
Let's make everything hold in heat.
I mean, to be fair, a lot of the housing standards in the UK are so poor
that they don't hold in heat during the winter either.
They're just designed, as someone on Twitter pointed out, to be damp forever.
Oh, no.
Just being wrong.
Wrong indoors.
My place is a new build And has a frankly excellent energy rating
So it's like
I don't know
An A or a B or something
And
So I don't have to spend anything
In the winter really
I will cough
And that's the house warm for the next hour
Oh yeah my flat's the same
You could heat it with a fart
A little burp
So in the winter you're very glad of it But's the same you could heat it with a fart yeah a little burp yeah
that's the day so in the winter you're very glad of it but in the summer you're like oh my god
can i chip off layers of wall please can i unglaze the windows well someone someone was pointing out
the irony of like you know the insulate britain people who like lie down in front of the trucks
and because that's how much they want everyone's homes to be insulated well if this becomes the normal an insulated home will be worse and require
greenhouse gas emitting cooling facilities e.g aircon yeah but i guess the problem with
british heat waves is i mean their money but the problem is that it's really, really hot,
but for too short a period of time.
And so it hasn't hit a point.
I think it still feels to most people like a false economy
to spend energy and money on protecting ourselves
from the extreme heat,
because it's only for a couple of weeks and then the rest of the time. Last year, it's only for a couple of weeks
and then the rest of the time.
Last year, it was only for a couple of weeks,
but we'll see about this year.
But remember 2019, it didn't rain for like 12 weeks.
It was like this for three months, four months.
Yeah, I think 2019 was particular hell, wasn't it?
Yeah, man.
I think it's going to be like that again this year.
It's going to just be like,
we're going to be hotter than Portugal
for just months, which is obscene.
It is pretty appalling.
But once we get through today,
it's at least not going to be so bad.
I mean, I can't believe I'm looking at temperatures
like 26 degrees Celsius and thinking,
oh, that'll be nice and cool yeah it's obscene the sweat is beading on my face like i'm i've got a i'm ill that's how hot it is in this room now it's when it's when sweat comes from your open
planes of your cheek that you're hot i've rolled my t-shirt i've rolled my t-shirt up to expose my belly i've
just got a white t-shirt strapped around my my boobs yeah like i'm sat on a porch in new orleans
i um my laptop just by virtue of being on in this temperature is just screaming
yes me too mine too it's so hard my it's not even doing
anything and it's hard if you can hear that listeners if there's in the background there's
a slight also apologies listeners if you can hear them but usually i close my windows for um so
there's not too much sound bleed from outside but today i literally cannot see i've I've closed the windows And I'm gonna if you hear me faint that's why
Yeah we just hear
A big glugung
Oh no
Just a collapse and a fart
Yeah so there's children
Playing outside
Demon children
Only demon children can be playing in this heat.
Yeah.
What are they?
I mean, what the fuck are they playing?
French Foreign Legion?
They're just running around screaming.
Christ.
Oh, God.
They might not be screaming out of fun.
I have a plug for that.
They're just screaming because their feet are touching tarmac.
They're just screaming because their feet are touching tarmac.
A real life game of the floor is lava for children today.
Yeah.
I have something to plug, Phil, for our dear listeners.
Oh, yeah.
Plug it in them.
Thank you for all the listeners who have watched my special Quiet Ones on YouTube.
Yes. my special quiet ones on youtube yes but this friday it is being released as an album by the label 800 pound gorilla an american oh fantastic comedy label they make comedy albums and sort of
poodle them around the world in their own magical way 800 pound gorilla records they're called um
so i'm going to start tweeting about that uh soon and then the release
is on friday e.g um three days from the release what what date would that be for god's sake
it will be the 22nd the 22nd of july the album's coming out so i would be very much obliged if you
guys could um could rt it or like the instagram post i put on my instagram or whatever else it
would make me look like a real big shot to the good folks at 800lb Gorilla.
And it'll be on Spotify and stuff.
So you can actually listen to it now without having to do...
I don't know if you've ever done this, Phil.
Having to have YouTube open on your phone, but you can't shut the screen because it stops the YouTube.
Yeah, I really wish they'd sort that out.
A nightmare.
But no longer, listeners. No longer you can listen from Friday on your streaming audio blah blah of choice.
And thank you to everyone listening who has...
I don't know if you saw, Phil, but last night I did my tweet.
Oh, yeah, your McDonald's apple pie tweet.
Yes, every year on the hottest night of the year,
Pierre will do his tweet.
The tweet.
They say each year on the hottest night of the year,
Pierre will come to your house and do his tweet.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He'll climb in through the window you've left open for a breeze
and he'll do his tweet at you
in this weather it is left oven
yeah it always
does really well every year the tweet
people seem to forget or be retweeting it out of
a sense of meta sort of irony
which I don't care which it is I appreciate
both
I appreciate a repeated tweet that
isn't just retweeted from before but
typed out again and tweeted again yes and um it's i think it's i think the tweet has been
going as a tradition for at least four or five years now like definitely a long time
blowing onto myself to cool my belly why these kids are kids so noisy? I hope people cannot hear these kids screaming too much.
I can hear them through the phone.
Oh, Jesus. I cannot close
these windows.
I can hear them through the phone, but it lends
a sort of summertime ambiance,
I dare say.
Oh, boy, oh, boy.
Oh, boy, oh, boy. Also, this Saturday
and, oh, God, was that water? boy, oh, boy. Also, this Saturday and... Oh, God. Was that water?
No, I'm just trying to move the window around
so that maybe I can...
Also, this Saturday and next Saturday,
I will be on Absolute Radio's
Saturday morning breakfast show
with Frank Skinner and Emily Dean.
So if you want a little extra dose of me in your life,
you've already listened to the
Bud Pod and the Patreon episode,
then I'll be on the radio on Saturday
having a chucklesome time
in between actual music instead of the
insane jingles that we buy.
So you can enjoy that.
Marvelous.
Marvelous. Anything you want to plug, Phil?
Life in general?
The laughter of children?
Yeah, my life The laughter of children?
My life Happiness of children
And
My book is out in paperback
Sidesplitter
So do get this, do get the book
It's also out on
Audiobook
Sidesplitter
And I'll be at the Edinburgh Fringe
On the 15th to the 21st
Doing my new stand-up show
So it's not Filly Filly Wang Wang
It's the new show
So if you're on the Fringe do come along
I'm at the Assembly George Square
What's the title of the new show please?
The title in Edinburgh
It is called Phil Wang
The Real Hero and all this nice yeah but i think
i will change the title for the tour because the title was was the title was a work in progress
title that i've sort of held on to but i think i'll change it at some point i think um i think
people don't realize how early we have to choose our titles it's it's it's easily months before we
properly have an idea of what the
show's really about or have written
any of it. So it's quite...
If you want to play it safe,
you have to pick a very vague title.
Yes, exactly.
But do come along.
What else?
What else? I think that's it for now.
Yeah.
But stay tuned. now but stay tuned
you better stay tuned
what's fun about running around screaming
I never did this as a child
do you remember the child scream
element of where I live
the child scream element of where you live
yeah 5 o'clock every day
there's just like a child
screaming and weeping grief
out of a pram every day at five
like fucking big ben i can like tie it set my watch by i have no idea what's wrong with that
kid every day for years now there's also the kid is like lisa simpson he's not getting any older
it seems that now my neighborhood observes child scream as well
yeah yeah well you're in a different scream zone so your screams are happening now
whereas i'm three scream three hours of screaming ahead of you
so you know from my point of view it feels quite surreal and science fictiony to hear
the child screams now instead of at five there There could be birds.
Very loud.
Yeah, they're really horrible.
I hate screaming.
I hate children who scream.
I hate adults who scream.
I hate teenagers who are out and about and they're excited
and the boys bully the girls
and the girls scream
but in a way that invites more teasing.
I hate them, all of them i hate them be
quiet be quiet i was so quiet when i was young i've always been so quiet i polluted so little
noise into our world so little my noise footprint is tiny why can't other people why can't other
people be like me this is the main problem my life yeah why can't other people why can't other people be like me this is the main problem in my life
yeah why can't other people be more like me well this i i have this same thought but
except with noise it's um keeping hold of your litter till you find a bin
that was especially growing up in malaysia growing up in the developing world
yeah litter is so bad yeah just keep it in your pocket till you find a bin, it's not a big deal
figure it out
it's not hard, it feels good
the idea
of just letting some litter kind of plop
from your hand into just the world
is
as insane to me as the idea of just
stripping off completely and then
just getting on with my day in public, it's as insane to me as the idea of just stripping off completely and then just getting on with my day
in public it's as insane to me it is bonkers it's you know um not the heat is making us sound old
but we are old now and kids are too loud i've always found kids too loud even when i was a kid
i'd be walking around and people they'd be playing tag or whatever and running around
screaming and I'd just be in the corner just rubbing
my temples like that.
You're shaking
your fist saying, have some goddamn pride!
Act your
goddamn ages!
Well,
as if the heatwave on its own wasn't horrific enough
we are also getting to the
end point of the Tory leadership
contest
it's true, it's time to completely undemocratically
find out who is basically the
elected dictator of the country
and I never thought
that we'd find
ourselves as a country in a position of being quite probably on the brink of our first ever non-white prime minister.
Yeah.
And there isn't a shred of a celebratory atmosphere about it.
No one is excited about it at all.
Isn't that funny i just saw today that um kemi uh uh bedenach has
been endorsed by britain first yeah it's a brave new world kemi bedenach is now um she's the only
black candidate and is sort of the right wing of the party's favorite what is going on i don't understand life anymore pierre
yeah there's a good chance that we'll have a non-white uh prime minister and a very good
chance that another female prime minister the third one i believe um i think a caretaker role
aside for someone at some point i think maybe some someone anyway but it doesn't matter the point is as you say not celebrated because of the fact
that it's it's on the right um i don't know how far the u.s is from that from just having like
uh someone from a sort of uh double minority background or double discriminated against
background just being in charge of like machine guns for everyone and people having to go well I suppose
they've worked very hard to be at the top of their field
offering everyone guns
yeah
yeah
yeah
but this is a thing I read recently in a nice piece
about how
a very good piece about how
the real force
behind
the future of
Christianity in the UK
is African, black African
and there's a good
and
like conservative
Christian, so you know, anti-LGBT
and all this sort of thing
anti-abortion
and there's a good line in it that said Christian. So, you know, anti-LGBT and all this sort of thing. Anti-abortion.
And there's a good line in it that said
diverse
does not mean progressive.
And that's something that we really should
keep in mind. And the left especially needs
to wake up to. Diverse does not
mean progressive.
Yeah, you don't want to be like those
naive sort of student
union white students who are like, well, all the discriminated groups form a sort of natural alliance and get on really well.
Yeah, and will vote Labour by matter of course.
Or even if they don't vote Labour, will just generally agree with me because I think that I am on their team.
Yeah. And that means that they must be
on my team. Otherwise it's unfair.
Nope.
Anyway, interesting.
It most likely, I mean,
yeah, it'll most likely be Rishi.
Will Rishi be our most handsome
Prime Minister? Well,
Phil, there's a lot of polling coming in
that once it's down to two
rishi loses really to yeah to who to every every other candidate is polling better than him when
it's down to between rishi and someone else polling with the membership uh some um some
straw poll stuff for the tory membership and you YouGov weighted polls just came out today saying that.
Oh, so he's a lot more popular in the party than in the membership.
Is that right?
In the PLP, as it were.
Not even really.
It's just because he's good, but all the people who could be winning against him are split so far.
So he's benefiting from the split.
That's true.
Remember that Boris is the only frontrunner since like the 60s who's ever actually won
normally the frontrunner doesn't win
they get knifed to bits by everyone else
yeah
and that's why like Jacob Rees-Mogg is going
Rishi is a socialist
and everyone's going oh no
he's definitely
he's definitely very left wing isn't he
the Tory Chancellor Rishi Sunak.
Yeah.
What's funny is that Rishi's counter-argument.
The welfare-cutting Chancellor.
Yeah, well, Rishi's counter-argument is to be like,
yes, I gave everyone money to help save their lives
during the pandemic, but I didn't want to.
I didn't want to be nice.
I wanted to cut them to the bone and that he's having to like make that
argument really sincerely in public in order to appeal to the 100 000 pensioners who are going
to choose the next dictator gosh yeah i mean at this point as long as it's not trust, I won't put my head in the oven.
She is someone who, even when speaking directly to the camera and looking into my eyes,
I feel like she's looking at somewhere about a mile behind my head.
She somehow manages to feel like she's looking over your shoulder,
even when she's looking directly in your eye.
Yeah, and not only that, what she's looking over your shoulder even when she's looking directly in your eye yeah and not only that the
what she's looking over your shoulder at is the person who she's distracting you from who's going
to hit you with a club there's menace in there um and she's a proper nut uh but she's in with a
decent shot oh god she's in with a decent shot What's going to fucking happen?
I think Bryce is going to come back He started talking about the deep state in one of his speeches today
Wow, really?
He's going down that route
Yeah, he might go full nut nut
Maybe he'll become a
Crazy populist
What's his video of him
In a fighter jet?
You know
It's the last week of term
It's Mufti Day
Is he playing Mufti Day
For Mufti Day he came as a fighter pilot
And because he's prime minister
They let it that means that you can actually go in one
And
He's just broadly decided that
It's summer last week of term
And as a reward for being such a good boy
He's allowed to go
On a fighter jet and give a thumbs up
Yeah, bizarre
Really, really weird, really embarrassing stuff
Really embarrassing stuff
I mean, you know they cancelled the other debate
There was supposed to be another debate today
A debate between the
Leadership contenders
Why did they cancel it? Because of the heat?
No, Sunak and Trust just went
We don't wanna
Oh, fair enough
Yeah, they just went, yeah, we don't wanna
It's probably just worse
They deplatformed themselves
Hypocritical
We'll cancel culture
People are canceing themselves out here people
cancel culture's got so bad i'm going to try and reconfigure my window situation one more time to
try and minimize the noise just wait i can't believe that two candidates for elected dictator
in the uk just as a description of the level of power the Prime Minister has versus the US President
within their own system.
I can't believe two candidates turned
the gun on themselves and cancelled themselves.
Deplatformed themselves.
Very sad.
What is the world coming to?
In other news, my
large, billowing, white, red
Nose Day t-shirt I'm wearing to try and stay cool
looks like I have gone swimming with my
t-shirt on because I'm ashamed of my
man boobies.
That's how fucking hot and sweaty
it's genuinely like I can see my
chest hair through it.
It's so hot, Pierre has come dressed as
the fat kid in P.E.
That was me,
by the way, as well.
In days like today, we are all
that child.
Okay,
so I've opened up the further
window to minimize noise,
hopefully, and just pulled the curtain
down on my window. Just try
to keep this light out.
Yeah, I wish I'd shut the curtain in this room. As it
is, I've let the sun turn the window
of this room into the window of an oven
that I live in.
Oh, God.
I think we are getting through
the worst of it now, though.
We've got another hour of the worst of it,
and then it will start to come down.
Yeah, we're recording at the
pinnacle, which may have been an error, but
such is life.
We wanted you to hear this live from the front lines of the climate war.
Pierre and I are essentially recording this podcast
at this hour to sort of hold each other's hands
through the burning hour,
as it will be called in the future.
Yes, yes, yes.
That would be good dystopian sci-fi
you know you know like one of those sci-fis where it's sort of like uh
they've had to change the name slightly to make it seem a bit more futuristic
yeah so instead of like someone being called robert they're called like you know rod it
yeah i was thinking rod it yeah so so like someone's mum being like,
Roddett, come back from...
That's also out of the Game of Thrones playbook.
Yes, yeah, yeah.
People called Sleaven and stuff.
Just really pathetic.
Or just Joffrey instead of Geoffrey.
Yes, which is also like an American's mispronunciation
of how we spell the word Jeffrey, the name Jeffrey.
Oh, right.
Geoffrey.
Yeah.
Geoffrey?
Yeah.
But yeah, some like mum leaning out of like a space house, like the kind of house from Star Wars that Luke Skywalker lives in.
Just a sort of desert-y looking house.
Roddart, come back before the burning hour
will mom goes away on his little hover boots we we basically now have live in the purge once a
year we have the purge but it's it's from the sun the sun has a purge now and And it's on a day in July. And you don't know until about a week beforehand that the sun purge is coming.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
The sun is no longer the cheerful baby's head from Teletubbies.
It's a furious ex-con.
The sun now has Danny Trejo's face.
You know, the babies, the Teletubby sun baby went to my school in Bath.
Really?
Yeah, yeah.
She was the celeb on campus.
She?
She, yeah.
Well, well, well.
What a world.
How typical.
Pierre has assumed the sun is a man.
Just because it's called the sun.
You didn't think a female baby could be the sun.
Wow. Shame on you and was she cool pierre doesn't pierre doesn't think that women can be made up primarily of hydrogen no what a pig
i don't think just just because she has a vagina she can, she can't create helium out of nuclear fusion.
For shame.
This is why we need more women in STEM.
Because then they'll crack cold fusion and be creating suns.
Yeah.
Well, we should probably get to some Correspondence
We should peel open some sopping wet letters
From under our tits
It's the hottest correspondence of the year
Correspondence
It's the most hot
Correspondence
Of the year
The envelope
Glue is melting
Cause the day is so
Sweltering
I'd like a cool
Beer
Sing to me weltering. Nice. I'd like a cool beer. Yes.
It's the
Sing to me.
Sing to me.
Oh boy.
I have so many cold beers in the fridge ready
for tonight.
I've just put in a lovely
Vino Verde into the fridge.
Daddy's going to like that.
It's slightly carbonated by nature.
Yum, yum, yum.
Ooh.
So,
Sam gets in touch.
Sam.
Yeah.

Thank you so much for your podcast.
It's a regular delight to me and my wife.
My wife.
Lovely.
Thrilled that you are married.
I have not had huge success recommending your podcast,
but I soldier on regardless.
Thank you.
A surprising victory was a colleague at work when I was trying
to convince her to get her student son to listen.
She had to go herself and was
delighted.
Yes. Hey,
Marie, I hear your student
son is looking for a new podcast.
Might I
recommend the Stinky Boys of
Budpod?
Hey, Marie, you kids at college, you like shitting and turds and highbrow references and so forth?
Why don't you turn them on to these two crazy guys?
Well, what if I want to listen myself?
Put your hands on her hips, cigarette hanging out of her lips.
Hair curlers in her hair
Yeah
If it's good enough for the goddamn boy
Like she's very
She loves him but she's very hard on him
Anyway
Yeah, tough love
When explaining the podcast I tried several taglines
And he says this is in the Adam Buxton radio DJ voice
This first one
So that's good
It's two guys talking shit, literally This is in the Adam Buxton radio DJ voice, this first one. So that's good.
It's two guys talking shit.
Literally.
Adam Buxton lives in my head rent-free, and I'll never evict him.
Budpod, it's just shit.
Yeah.
Yeah? I can see why these haven't been too effective
Budpod it's turds all the way down
Yeah
Nice reference hard sell
I see all of these on like
Oldie starly
Posters
Like 60s posters
Yes I see them next to the winking boy
From Fallout
Yes yes That sort of thing Like 60s posters. Yes, I see them next to the winking boy from Fallout. Yes, yes.
That sort of thing.
God, I can feel my t-shirt clinging to my boobies.
Anyway, in other news, my wife found this piece of garbled nonsense and wanted to share.
Okay.
Good.
And when having...
Oh, where did you find it
Oh maybe he means the attachments
Yes okay he means the attachments
So
Hashtag Tokyo 2020
Hashtag start your impossible
I hate it
Start your impossible
Start your impossible Start your impossible
Makes me feel sad and angry at the same time
Yeah
Start your impossible
Start your impossibles
Everyone
And he found a book called Koji Alchemy
Rediscovering the Magic of Mold-Based Fermentation
Really annoyed Discovering the magic The magic Magic of mold-based fermentation.
Really annoyed.
Discovering the magic.
The magic.
The magic.
Annoyed about that because we now can't release the book
Koji Alchemy Rediscovering the Magic of Jerking Off.
Shame.
And so, yeah, he says he saw that when having a delicious
Tasting menu in Farringdon
I was taken aback by this volume that must have been written
By an acolyte of the bum bum life
Farringdon
He has a couple of excellent restaurants in Farringdon
A real culinary hotspot in London
Anyone who's ever going to visit
Make a note
St John
Is that where that is?
Yeah. Yeah, some good stuff.
Oh.
Finally, Sam says a story
that my wife has never heard.
A
Budpod exclusive.
A Budpod marital
disclosure.
A story my wife has never heard.
Not a poo story, more a poo prelude.
Okay.
A pre-pood.
A pre-pood.
As a teenager, I was part of a youth group that had an annual
weekend away to help the socially awkward
brace-wearing and often unwashed
teens
to remain firmly
socially awkward.
Wait, wait, wait. This is like a getaway or like a camp or something yeah and a weekend away weekend away okay okay yeah so as a teen as a
teenager i was part of a youth group that had an annual weekend away to help the socially awkward
brace wearing and often unwashed teens remain firmly socially awkward and And, of course, I fancied the pants of a large number of the opposite sex within the group.
Of course, of course.
Halcyon days.
Yes.
Yes, the real Tommy Gunn in a mob-owned bar approach
to who you fancy.
On this fateful weekend, my bowels betrayed me.
After the very first day, I had hot, noxious fumes creeping from my anus at regular intervals.
Noxious fumes, a very influential saxophonist of the 60s jazz movement in New York.
Oh, yes, Noxious Fumes, yes.
Yeah, he was French by birth.
Noxious Fumais, yes.
Yeah, he was French by birth.
But he was a very conservative country family in France and he moved to New York to make his name.
Yeah, and had to hide his aristocratic roots.
It would have really undermined his position
as a sort of starving artist.
So he's got the terrible hot emissions.
We've all been there.
Oh, Noxious Fumais the terrible hot emissions. We've all been there.
Oh, not just for me and the hot emissions.
Oh, they took the state by storm.
He says, I can only describe the smell as dangereux.
Dangereux, dangerous?
Yes, dangerous. The very? Yes. Dangerous.
The very definition of silent but deadly.
There seemed to be no rhyme, reason, or rumbly tummy
to provide any sort of warning as to when the
pungent pestilence might be emitted.
Wow. So this is at
random. Instant
stuff. Instant fart.
Instant fart. Instant fart.
This made any interaction
a nail-biting thrill ride of horror.
Oh, yeah.
Because he's on the weekend away with all the other
awkward, brace-wearing, unwashed ladies.
Oh, no.
And at any moment, your body could betray you.
At any moment, just a little
haaaah.
Horrible devil's breath He says I'd manage most of the day
By casually heading outside or to a corner
And generally keeping away from people
Like a normal teenager
Just talking to
Talking to the girls
Yeah so I think my favourite member of S Club 7
Would have to be Brat
Excuse me ladies And he just walks out very calmly just walks out of the room and then you
see him through the window outside just stand in the corner like that yeah he's miming he's
making a smoking motion with his hands but it's to his uh anus just tapping it like like into an ashtray just yeah tapping his ass yeah yeah yeah
and somehow manages to grind his uh boot heel into it
don't really put it out just bending his leg backwards and just crushing his own anus with his heel. Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, and as he comes back inside, he puts both his hands up like he's surrendering.
He just goes, I'm trying to quit.
I'm trying to quit.
Down to one a day so he casually heads outside
or to a corner and generally keeps away from people like a normal
teenager however when evening struck
the leader of the weekend
declared there would be a viewing of the lord
of the rings that all must attend
oh no
famously long
famously long famously long
and exciting
so he says
staring down the barrel of three hours
in a reasonably close proximity to actual
people I devised a strategy to
find some way through the ordeal
I would sit alone at the back
and be the person to gather further snacks
or drinks for people
nice yes
the farting butler
you've heard of a dumb waiter
well now it's time to meet the
farting butler
the bum waiter
so he's a little
farting Jeeves over here.
I would be alone.
Yes.
Allowing me to get out of my seat as necessary and expel the demonic breath where none might accidentally wander into the cloud.
Very good.
Really good stuff from a teenager as well.
Smart.
Upload your farts to the cloud.
Very clever.
I mentally twiddled my imaginary
moustache at the clever plan
I was immediately thwarted
I hate being thwarted immediately
I don't mind being thwarted eventually
but not immediately
have some chase to it
I was immediately thwarted.
One of the girls whose pants I'd fancied off
decided to sit at the back, blocking my retreat.
No.
No!
Madam, please.
Madam, please.
There was nothing to be done but clench.
And clench I did.
I have no memory of any conversation
That took place before the film started
I can only imagine I came across
As an idiot
About a third of the way through the film
Disaster struck
Oh no
Have they left the Shire yet?
They'll have just left the Shire
This The next step The next fart is the furthest away I've just left the Shire.
The next step, the next fart is the furthest away I've farted from the Shire,
Mr. Frodo.
So he says,
a third of the way through the film,
disaster struck. My clenches did nothing to withhold
the cascade.
Oh, no.
The girl reacted.
I began to babble apologies.
The noise of our discussion.
Please.
No, I'm sorry.
Are you?
Let me explain.
No, I can explain.
You don't understand.
No, please.
When someone in the X-Men accidentally exposes that they have a mutant power.
No, please.
Yeah, he farts like when cyclops takes his glasses off
i didn't mean it i know
you're a monster a monster just this very traumatic
he says the girl reacted i began to babble apologies the noise of our discussion
roused the attention of the leader
Who felt they had to intervene
What's going on there?
Yeah literally
So the leader goes
What's going on here?
What the
Oh whoa
What's that?
Is it weird that in my head the leader's dressed like
an American park ranger?
Like green uniform
tie, smoky bear hat.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And now he's holding his nose.
Whoa, what the?
Oh my god.
Code brown, code brown.
What is that?
Sam says, I died. Oh my god. Code brown. Code brown. What is that? Sam says,
I died.
Oh my lord. Yeah. Horrible.
He says, in my panic, I did what all
four-year-olds learn to do.
Four-year-olds?
All four-year-olds learn to do.
I blamed the closest person
to me.
It was her, I uttered.
Oh, no way!
What a twist!
What a twist!
It was her!
She's the witch!
Ha ha ha ha!
Ha ha ha!
Wow! I mean, there's playing
hard to get, and then there's blaming
her for your fart. For your evil, evil devil breath fart. It was her, I mean there's playing hard to get And then there's blaming her for your fart
For your evil, evil devil breath fart
It was her I uttered
Of course no one took any notice of the accusation
And all eyes turned to me
There were sniggers
The girl moved seat
That's such a limp attempt
At shifting the blame
Yeah, it was her
Terrible limp attempt at shifting the blame. Yeah. It was terrible.
And you're the only one not like choking on the
smell either.
Such a funny person to pin it on.
The one person you're trying to impress.
Yeah. Immediate betrayal.
The leader felt it was their duty to sit through the rest of the film with me out of pity.
I would have preferred death.
Oh, God.
Death over pity.
My brother, who was there as well, still cries with laughter at my social demise.
It is funny.
It is good stuff.
The shock and horror of it meant
I don't remember the rest of the weekend
And if there was a cathartic poo that followed such misery
I'd like to think there was
Brutal
Yeah if I was his brother I'd be dining out on that for years
Oh god yeah
Fart betrayal
Fart betrayal
Oh yeah
This is a whole heap of shit I thought I'd cram into one
missive I fully expect a solid
okay thank you Koji Sam
okay thank you Sam
okay thank you Sam really great
stuff really lovely
why did God
Dane to make
man
his
his horniest and his stinkiest in the same years of life.
Are you quoting Paradise Lost?
I think that's a Milton quote.
Why must man be the stinkiest and the horniest at once?
It's true, though.
You're a teenager and you want to impress girls so much,
but you're always stinky.
Also, women have a naturally better sense of smell apparently like on average oh no you tell me that now
it's a terrible combination we should have a better sense of smell so we can stop ourselves
being stinky before anyone else notices but not. Apparently we're just walking around just immune.
Terrible.
I guess because we've always been
smellier, we have a higher tolerance.
We've built a higher tolerance.
I'm going to smell terrible today because
I can't emphasize enough how much it looks like I've been swimming.
God, it feels awful.
Well,
we're going to go into the
secret swimming pool,
the VIP swimming pool now of the Patreon bonus pod.
The Patreon plunge pool.
If we survive till then.
Oh, God, yeah.
All the best to you guys.
Hope you are surviving, have survived the heat wave at this point.
Yeah.
Cheers, guys.
Thank you for listening.
Don't forget the plugs, the album on Friday. That would be very nice of you okay thank you i just i just realized
any plug we make on this podcast should be called a butt plug of course it should yeah yeah so so
from time to time listeners you might hear some butt plugs from us. Please do come to the shows and the things that we've butt plugged.
Yeah.
Don't let the butt plug stop you coming.
That's what people say.
Until next week or until the bonus pod, goodbye and stay cool.
Bye.
