Starting point is 00:06:29 that's what I heard I think that it compliments the Jack Daniels it does but you need something with Jack Daniels because Jack Daniels
Starting point is 00:06:35 tastes like arse arse on it's own it's funny you think it's going to taste nicer than it does and it never does it never does you have to add something
Starting point is 00:06:41 to it and I'm adding D to the P and carry on what's the worst that could happen Paul could have an epi no not does. It never does. You have to add something to it. And I'm adding D to the P. What's the worst that could happen? Paul could have an epi. No, not. The worst that can happen is you could ruin the whole episode. You're working towards it.
Starting point is 00:06:55 I'm going to photocopy my bottom. How? With what? Well, I'm going to give you a piece of paper and a pencil and I'll draw you a bond. You can press the paper on my arse and then you trace around it. But I have to do all dots for the shading. And my little ball bag that presses against the paper
Starting point is 00:07:12 as well. Yeah, you've got to do all of it. I want gooch in portrait. So, this girl comes up to me whilst I'm DJing. This is familiar, isn't it? This is like the Tales from the Dance Floor to end all Tales from the Dance Flo This is familiar, isn't it? This is like the Tales from the Dance Floor to end all Tales from the Dance Floor.
Starting point is 00:07:28 Well, that's a bold claim for our Christmas work to do. It contains almost every element. Can you not? We're trying to record. You're putting your glass down. Yeah? Come at me, brah. Mate, you really are showing the signs of inebriation. Come at me, brah. Come at your brah. Come at me, yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:43 Come at my brah. Yeah, this is, Come at me, yeah. Come at my bra. Yeah, this is, it contains, oh, she says, firstly, Yeah. Can I do a request? So, first of all, faux pas off the top. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:54 A question, asking a question. And I nodded. I couldn't be bothered dealing with that. I know. I nodded. You just nodded? Yes, yes, of course. You turned the other cheek. Of course.
Starting point is 00:08:00 And then she went, Can you play some big tunes, please? Oh, big tunes. No, she said, two red flags in the first sentence. Here we go. She goes, it's my mate's birthday. Flag one. Flag one.
Starting point is 00:08:12 Yeah. Could you play some big tunes? Super flag. What does big tunes mean? She just means like something that we all love. Up down funk. Yeah, or whatever. Big tunes.
Starting point is 00:08:23 Big tunes. Miley Cyrus. Not only is that fucking expression, or whatever. Big tune. She wants to hear Miley Cyrus. Not only is that fucking expression excrement, just big tune. You sound like a twat in Magaluf
Starting point is 00:08:31 in 93. Oh. Don't you? Big tune. Big tune. Fuck off. Right, so. Right.
Starting point is 00:08:38 So two red flags. Okay, off the top of the bed. Off the top of the bed there's two red flags. And then she says... Oh.
Starting point is 00:08:47 Yeah. No, then I say to her... She says to me, and I said to her, and she says to me... So she comes up and goes, Oh, it's my mate's... Can I have a request? Oh, it's my mate's birthday. Could you play some big tunes, please? And I say to her, that's not a request.
Starting point is 00:09:00 No. A request consists of two elements. The name of the artist and the name of the tune. Sometimes just the name of the tune if you don't know the name of the artist. It can work. It can work. If it's a big enough tune. But not just the name of the artist.
Starting point is 00:09:11 That doesn't count as a request. Because most artists, unless it's like a one-hit wonder. You know, who was that guy who did Gangnam Style? Ghibli Jib Job. He was not called Ghibli Jib Job. And you know, do you know what you have to do? What? When you make a name up, try and be more creative, Paul.
Starting point is 00:09:27 You've got a certain limited set of syllables that you use for improvisation. One of them is jib and one of them is job. And often they're combined together. The name of the singer is called Bibbly Bob. Oh, Bibble. Bibble is another one. Bibbly Bob and Ghibli Job. I'm sick of it.
Starting point is 00:09:42 Honestly, I'm sick of it. Please try to be more creative on the spot. Anyway, she asks for a big tune. And I explain to her that request. She's like, oh, look. You're an evil twat, you are. And I said to her, no, but it just occurred to me. Because I was quite articulate about it at the time.
Starting point is 00:10:00 I said to her, request is a tune. Yeah. And the artist who wrote that tune. Otherwise, all you're doing is just being condescending. Imagine you went into a sandwich shop. Yeah. And instead of ordering a sandwich, like, I'd like a ham and cheese. Do you have ham on cheese?
Starting point is 00:10:16 Yeah. Instead of saying that, just go, oh, do a big sandwich. You know, do a big sandwich. Oh, the quality of these sandwiches generally is a bit shit. Could you just improve it? Do you know what I mean? Could you just do better sandwiches in general? It's condescending, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:10:34 Because basically what you're saying is, I don't like what you're doing. Just be better at what you're doing. Rather than saying, I would like you to play this song. It's not a request, is it? To say, could you play some big tunes, please? And then she said, third red flag, Paul it? To say, could you play some big tunes, please? And then she said, third red flag, Paul. Third red flag, yeah?
Starting point is 00:10:49 She says to me, she says, what about something a bit more up-tempo? What? What like? Happy hardcore? What tempo would you want? And then she said, techno-y. A bit more techno-y.
Starting point is 00:11:01 It's the Blues Kitchen, though. Oh God, don't make that wop-wop noise. That's another one of your fucking syllables. I'm going to start counting them. The improvisation syllables of Ganon. Wop-wop. Ghibli job. Bibble, ghibli job.
Starting point is 00:11:21 And, yeah. A hoody-hoo. No. Yes! Come on, you always go a hoody-hoo. He Yes, come on. You always go a hootie-hoo. He's having another drink. He doesn't like it. So we've had the red flags.
Starting point is 00:11:32 We've had three red flags so far, ladies and gentlemen. Can I have a request? Yeah. Big tune. Mate's birthday. Yeah. Up tempo. Yeah. There's four red flags so far.
Starting point is 00:11:42 And then she says, oh, it's all right. And I explain it's just kind of condescending for you just to say that just to say could you play something better you told her she was condescending yes I did
Starting point is 00:11:50 and I explained why was she pissed though I didn't use the sandwich to just roll over her glazed eyes no no she was like she took it in and it's just like
Starting point is 00:11:57 yeah because I was like come on that is condescending just to say just go up to someone and say could you do better at your job
Starting point is 00:12:03 you would never you know what I mean isn't it yeah a request is requesting a song it's not going and say could you do better at your job? You would never, you know what I mean? Isn't it? Yeah. A request is requesting a song. It's not going oh could you just be better at it? Could you just dance better? Eli, you know on this podcast
Starting point is 00:12:12 can you do bigger gags? Bigger gags? Can you just do bigger gags please? Like what? I don't know. By who? Just do a bigger gag. Do a bigger gag. Do a bigger gag! Alright. Come on. Dog walks into an opera. No, what do you mean, der-der?
Starting point is 00:12:28 Don't say der-der. Don't go der-der-der-der. All right. Will you promise me not you won't? Do you know what dog's favourite parts of the opera are? The arr-arr-arr-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r Good. I'm going to use that if you don't mind. You can have that. So, Dog walks into the opera, yeah? And he sits there for a... He sits there for a bit,
Starting point is 00:12:53 you know, he's got a ticket and everything. And then, like 20 minutes in, he turns to the gentleman next to him and he goes, excuse me, sir, do you know when the...
Starting point is 00:13:01 Oh, ladies and gentlemen The stand-ups arrived For the show So, it's our Christmas do And that was my tell-all From the dance floor I'm going to give it Three out of five

Starting point is 00:13:23 I can't think of one So literally She just wanted to come up And say I was of a tune. Then she was like, I can't think of one. So literally, she just wanted to come up and say I was doing a bit of shit. Maybe she was trying to shut you up. Oh, Eli. No, she wasn't. Can you play big tunes? And I'll let you play my big tunes.
Starting point is 00:13:38 That voice also is one of your fucking tropes. It's not. It's a new voice. No, it's not. It's a new voice. And it's not even original. It's a new voice. It was off that animated sketch show called... What? You remember it. No, I's not. It's a new voice. And it's not even original. It's a new voice. It was off that animated sketch show called... What?

Starting point is 00:14:10 And I walk through this group of young men. Excuse me, I say. And then one of them immediately says, how big do you think my dick is? And then the other one, the other one in my face goes, hello, Gandalf. Wow.
Starting point is 00:14:23 Fuck off. Who are these youngsters? I'm glad that they've broken the country so they have to grow up into a shit job market. Ooh, a little bit of politics there.
Starting point is 00:14:32 Fucking insulting me, obviously doing my job, Gandalf. What the fuck? And what am I going to say to that? How big do you think my dick is?
Starting point is 00:14:40 What would be the right comeback with that? I don't think you have a dick. How long is a piece of string? Yeah, that works. Or, I'm waiting for the aria. No, what you should say is,

Starting point is 00:30:30 No expense spared. It's tea. It's tea. It's tea, Paul. In a nice box. That's the kind of tea you like, isn't it? Stop sighing. Stop sighing. Stop sighing.
Starting point is 00:30:45 Mi casa to you. Let's do this segment properly. You've got very sloppy. And you know what it is? It's because you've had three fucking pepper jacks in quick succession. I haven't even started drinking yet, Paul. Can I start drinking, please? It's a lovely thing, this.
Starting point is 00:31:01 And it's sealed. Do you want to look at the tea bags inside? Or just wait until you want a cup of tea. Do you drink tea? Yeah. There's your fucking casser, then. To you, me casser. Happy New Year.
Starting point is 00:31:13 I couldn't find a funny fucking gift. Don't do that. Don't throw the gift in the bin, Paul. I'm throwing it in the bin. You're getting very hostile, and I do not like it at all. Mate, I spent all this morning in presents and gifts and food. Here's this thing from Rogan. Oh, it's a yuppie bar. Wafers with peanuts and
Starting point is 00:31:30 cocoa coating. I like saying the word cocoa coating. It's like S-S-Studio. No, don't. Paul, you're not responding. All the time. You're not responding to my comedic cues. Cocoa coating.
Starting point is 00:31:46 I don't want to. What do you want to do with this? Give me a feed line. Come on. So, what kind of yuppie will you be putting in your mouth this year, Paul? Grant from Barclays. Who? Grant from Barclays? Yeah. Who's he? He comes round
Starting point is 00:32:02 the house at Christmas. What's he called? Wibbly Woo? No. Does he say Wibbly Woo? No, he makes a wibbly. Does he go blibbly blob? No. Does he go, ooh, who's he? He comes round the house at Christmas. What's he called, Wibbly Woo? No. Does he say Wibbly Woo? No, he makes a Wibbly. Does he go Blippily Blob? No. Does he go, ooh, what's, what's, what's, what's the noise you're cracking at? Grant comes round every Christmas and makes a deposit. That's all you need to know.
Starting point is 00:32:15 I've got another gift. All right. You ready for this? Yeah. This you will like. You might be able to mix it with something. I shouldn't have thrown the tea away. That was mean of me.
Starting point is 00:32:22 You shouldn't. It was a nice box of tea, Paul, and you need to take a photo of it. I'll take it home. Hate this Christmas party. You know, like last year, we did a little play. And the year before that, we had a little adventure. I just thought we'd have a Christmas do this year with lots of atmosphere and excitement,
Starting point is 00:32:42 and it wasn't going to happen. Instead, I'm just sitting here half pissed with a box of Singapore Speciality Gourmet Tea. English breakfast. So, that's great. Now he's back. He's back now, isn't he?
Starting point is 00:32:57 That was my casser to you this Christmas casser and this is the third part of my three-part gift, which is pretty good, isn't it?

I think it's got botanicals or brewed elements. 100% natural. Oh, that's nice? Is it alcoholic? No, I think it's got botanicals or brewed elements. 100% natural.
Starting point is 00:33:27 Oh, that's nice. Is it alcoholic? No. I wonder why it says microbrewery then. Because it's a microbrewery, they brew. Oh, well that's nice. Oh, that's alright. Then I'll have that.
Starting point is 00:33:36 I'm going to taste that. I'll have it later. Maybe I'll have it with a little bit of JD. That's what I'm saying. So as you...

Starting point is 00:34:54 Nice, isn't it? I do. I've got a thing for cherryade at the moment. I don't blame it. It's one of the forgotten sodas. You know what I mean? I'd say it's the forgotten soda. Because people talk about Coca-Cola and Cherry Coke

Starting point is 00:35:38 Yeah. You really shouldn't have. Look what I got you. Fuck me. Oh, if you want. It's a Tomy thing With the thing Yeah It's wow
Starting point is 00:35:48 Tomy wow It's a Tomy wow Yeah So like the upright version Of the Tomy Mate Does it work Yeah
Starting point is 00:35:57 It's got batteries in And you know You can have a little play of it I feel really bad now Yeah because you got me tea Rogan got me a chocolate bar And this And I've gotten you something That cost a hundred pounds To buy of it. I feel really bad now. Yeah, because you got me tea, Rogan got me a chocolate bar, and this. And I've gotten you something that cost
Starting point is 00:36:07 £100 to buy. It cost £100. I went all out. Where did you get this, Paul? I bought it online. Really? Yeah, I saw it and I thought you'd like that, because I've got R. You've got R, and now I've got this. Don't break the...
Starting point is 00:36:23 You've just got to be firmer with it you've got to click it in I just didn't want to break it the little bit awkward thing about it is this is all complete yeah
Starting point is 00:36:30 this is fucking great you've got to get the ball up and down all the assault core stuff and flip it and the ball unfortunately is a little bit weird
Starting point is 00:36:38 because when you get to the middle you've got to basically flick it all the way back to the start by convolutely shaking the machine
Starting point is 00:36:43 around it doesn't have an automatic return I've got to get it back to the start myself yeah which is shaking the machine around. It doesn't have an automatic return. I've got to get it back to the start myself. Yeah, which is over there. So it's a bit of a pain in the arse, that. But, ultimately, I've had a little go of it. It's not hard, but it's...
Starting point is 00:36:52 You know, like con man where it's not particularly hard, but it's about how... How do I get it through there? I can't get it out the top of that bit. Hey, you can have it from here. I can't get it out the top up there. How did you do that? I do it.
Starting point is 00:37:01 Get the ball to the start for me. This is good. Oh, he's turn it on. Yeah, you have to turn it on to get it out. No, I've just got it. There you go. It's at the start now. So all you've got, you know, you've just got to turn the dial.
Starting point is 00:37:15 Have a little go with that, love. Have a little go with that. So you put it on to start. That's the timer. Yeah. Just have a little go with it now, but not too long, because it's a shit podcast. Oh, what's that block you? That blocks me!
Starting point is 00:37:26 This is fucking excellent. I really like this. There you go, it's yours. I'm going to borrow it just to make a video one day for the channel, yeah? Yeah. But other than that, that's yours. That's your Christmas present from me. I love this.
Starting point is 00:37:41 There you go, happy Christmas. Thank you very much. We've had a good year, so I thought we'd get you something actually nice. I can't even think of anything funny. I actually... And as an aside, it was a twofer. I got this with it. But this is mine because I want to keep this.
Starting point is 00:37:52 But this came with it when I bought it as auction. Ooh, you've got this one as well. Yeah. Now, this is a Tomy game, but it's designed to look exactly like a Nintendo Game & Watch, right? It's meant to look like a retro TV console thing. But you know what I love about the whole design ethic of all of these Tomy games that we've been getting into? What, the mechanical element of it all? I love the mechanical element, but I love how their design is trying to be like Atari and early Nintendo.
Starting point is 00:38:19 It's trying to be like that. But it is also from that era. So it's kind of got an authenticity, if I dare say that, about the actual graphics. Do you know what I mean? Yeah. It's nice.
Starting point is 00:38:30 This one's very simple. It's like trying to... It's actually trying to compete with computer games. It's kind of trying to compete, but on a budget, because I imagine that would be a lot less than a game and watch.
Starting point is 00:38:39 They're just lovely, though, aren't they? It's interesting, this thing, because this thing looks like a little kind of old TV set, almost. It's got a little screen and a dial. And it's very simple. All you've got to do is move your little knight from left to right. Is this in working condition as well?
Starting point is 00:38:51 Yeah. And it's called Knight's Mission. You've got to get the knight from the right-hand side. How many of these pocket arcade ones did they do? There's a few, but I can only find this one. Wow. So, yeah, you move it back and forth and you get points every time you touch the princess. So this is a Tomy wow that you got me.
Starting point is 00:39:05 That's a wow. So this is in the same range as the ARG. ARG. And kind of a distant cousin of Kongman. A distant cousin of ARG. Yes, but it's much more contained than Kongman. Like Screwball Scramble as well. It's a vertical.
Starting point is 00:39:16 It's a vertical gameplay. Yeah. And again, it's not hard like ARG, which is built to be difficult. This is just how fast can you get around the assault course. Really? So have you got all the way around? Yeah, you can get around reasonably easy. But it's a timing thing. So it, how fast can you get around the assault course? Really, so have you got all the way around? Yeah, you can get around
Starting point is 00:39:25 reasonably easy, but it's a timing thing, so it's like, can you beat the clock? I can love it. Absolutely love it. So this one, you just wind up.
Starting point is 00:39:32 This is the knight's mission. Yeah. Wound up as far as it can go, and then you've got left and right switch and start and stop and a little counter dial there. And again,
Starting point is 00:39:42 all you've got to do, it's not that clever, but you go start, and the little dragons jump up and down oh mad and then you've just got to move the little knight across to the princess here now what's happened has it faded somewhat the um the screen because they don't look that clear in there or have they faded or is it just the lighting in here it's just the lighting oh no they're quite yeah little dragons so every time you touch the dragon it kind of resets you got've got to go back to the start again that's it you just have to
Starting point is 00:40:05 get across that's all oh I've got to go back now because it won't let you go any further if you get stopped by a
Starting point is 00:40:11 dragon it's like one tiny isn't it it's like one tiny element of a Mario game do you know what
Starting point is 00:40:17 I mean one sort of timing thing one screen not even you'd have more on one screen than that
Starting point is 00:40:23 little pocket arcade thing oh fucking great so there you go well done Paul Merry on one screen than that so a little pocket arcade thing oh fucking great so there you go well done Paul
Starting point is 00:40:27 Merry Christmas Eli Silverman that's a proper present with no sarcasm or irony or I'm going to take it back

Starting point is 00:43:25 Because you're doing it totally wrong. He's trying to open the... Can I show you? Yeah, I keep forgetting how you do it. Now, it's very simple. Yeah. You place it. Look at it from above.
Starting point is 00:43:33 Yeah. Look at your bottom knuckle. Oh, yeah. Right, the one that connects... The knuckle that connects your... Your pointing finger. Your hand, yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:42 The knuckle that connects your finger to your hand. Is that the bottom knuckle? Or is that the knuckle? What's that? That's a knuckle, I think. That's a knuckle your hand. Is that the bottom knuckle or is that the knuckle? That's a knuckle, I think. That's a knuckle, yeah. But that's not a knuckle. Is that a knuckle as well? That's where you put knuckle dusters. You bend in your finger. Is that a knuckle as well? That's a knuckle as well. So you've got two knuckles per finger? Yeah, I think so.
Starting point is 00:43:56 I never thought about that. Those are knuckles. Those are the knuckles. So they're knuckles as well. That's bits where your fingers bend. And what about the top, the very top of the finger? Is that a knuckle as well? Did you ever play knuckles. So they're knuckles as well. Those bits at the top where your fingers bend. And what about the top, the very top of the finger? Is that a knuckle as well? Did you ever play knuckles? How many knuckles are there
Starting point is 00:44:08 per finger? Answer me this. Per finger? Three. One, two, three. One, two, three. Yeah. One, two, three.
Starting point is 00:44:15 Are those knuckles? But I thought in a film you only get two. The back ones are only the knuckles. Knuckle talk. Knuckle talk. Knuckle talk.
Starting point is 00:44:22 Knuckle talk. No, I've got it. Because they say up to the knuckles. Don't they? Up to the kn Knuckle talk. Knuckle talk. No, I've got it. Because they say up to the knuckles, don't they? How's up to the knuckles in there? That's what they say, yes. You filth. Or him.

Starting point is 00:44:38 I'm up to my knuckles. Sounds like a really bad ELO song, that. Up to my knuckles. An XTC song. Up to my knuckles in Mr. Oink. Right. So, but that solves the problemTC song, up to my knuckles in Mr Oink. But that solves the problem for me. Those aren't knuckles. Those are just the bits of your finger where it bends. I don't know. Because if you're up to
Starting point is 00:44:52 the knuckle, you're up to the end of the finger where it joins. And that's where your knuckle is. Open the bottle for me then. You put it in your bottom knuckle. Right. So now it's there. You've got your square around. If you look from the top, it's square around. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:06 Now, where do you put the light? Okay. You put the lighter in vertically. This is how we get the torque needed to pop the top off. Yes? Happy talky, talky, happy talk. At a right angle. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:16 What you've been doing is trying to put it up. Yeah, you're right. Yeah. I've been doing the leverage from the wrong position. So all you need to do, once you have that. Yeah. And you've placed it so it's just underneath there. Yeah. This is all good. Pops. Pop. Pop. Just push it. Just pops off. Lever it off. There you go. from the wrong position. So all you need to do, once you have that, and you've placed it so it's just underneath there,

Starting point is 00:45:45 It's a bitter liqueur. Made with oranges, I think. Yeah. Yes, it's orange. It's got that kind of pomegranate-y flavour to it. You know what I mean? It's black orange or whatever they call it. It's nice.
Starting point is 00:45:56 I mean, it's weird. I like it and I hate it. It's weird. It's the bitterness that you... It's very sweet and very bitter at the same time. Now, let's play cocktail. I'm going to put a little bit of Campari in. Campari soda.

Starting point is 00:46:45 Of all the different drinks No But it's a plasticky Plasticky I hate Jack Daniels That's what it is I hate Jack Daniels I got
Starting point is 00:46:54 My mum gave me a big bottle Of it for Christmas She always does Doesn't she? Big bottle of it Is it one with It's own little stand It needs to come with
Starting point is 00:47:01 It's own little stand So you can tip it Does it have it's own little Handle? I don't No it's not that big It's the next to don't. No, it's not that big. It's the next biggest. You know what, Paul?
Starting point is 00:47:08 It's not that big. So I've got to drink it. No, Paul. Actually, it's not that big, actually. No, I like saying that to people. People always say it to me. However, I've also got other booze. People say it to me.
Starting point is 00:47:18 People always say it to me, don't they? I love the bottles, by the way. They always say that to me. How big is it? What do you say? It's not that big, actually. It's not that big, actually. I'm sure it's all right.
Starting point is 00:47:30 Let's have a look. I'm not talking about that. Come on, Christmas party. I want to have a look at it. Fuck you. Come on. I want to have a look at it. If I get it out, it'll be the last thing you ever see.
Starting point is 00:47:39 All right. Yeah. I can do a podcast blind. If I get it out, it'll be the last thing you ever experience in this mortal world. No, it'll kill you. Why? Because it will spring forth like a tide of flesh. What, like some kind of Lovecraftian beast?
Starting point is 00:47:54 Yes, basically. Have you ever seen a wall of dick moving at 100 miles per hour? Wall of dick? A wall of dick is possibly the most terrifying things you've ever conjured. The idea of an oncoming wall of dicks. Yes. It's not just an idea. It's the reality.
Starting point is 00:48:10 Should I dame? So if you drop your pants, a wall of dicks comes out. No, not dicks. One dick. It's a mono-dick-ist-y religion. Okay, well, I don't want to see it then. I don't want to see it. I was going to talk about how I love the bottle shape,
Starting point is 00:48:24 because it looks like a little Bunsen beaker kind of thing. You know what I mean? It's like a very modernist. It's a sort of almost Art Deco or early modernist sort of design. But what about the texture? Tell them about the texture. It's all rippled. It's all pebble dashed almost.
Starting point is 00:48:35 Doesn't that give you... That's really sort of 70s. Do you know what I mean? It's a very 70s grade. There's something very 70s about it. I like it. I'll tell you what it makes a great. It makes a great candle holder.
Starting point is 00:48:45 Because it dribbles down and then it starts to build. And it all becomes very gothic. It's very exciting. I recommend that you can make... Lifehack. Kapari bottles make great candle holders. You've just got to get pissed enough to have as many candles to put in as possible. If you're pissed, you don't want to light a candle, do you?
Starting point is 00:49:03 No. Well, you shouldn't. You shouldn't. Safety tip. When you're pissed, you don't want to light a candle, do you? No. Well, you shouldn't. Shouldn't. Safety tip. When you light a candle, don't be drunk or you'll get yourself into a terrible funk. Only be sober when you've got the flame. That's how you play the candle-making game.
Starting point is 00:49:17 Now, Paul, there's a... You can tell that to your kids this Christmas. You've signed a non-disclosement agreement. Disclosement agreement, yeah. Go on. You've signed a non-disclosement agreement. Disclosement agreement, yeah. Go on. Sign a non-disclosement agreement. I'm disguised as a disclosement agreement.

Okay, well, is this cheap eat? Is this cheap eat? I'm starting to feel the effects of this bloody Campari. Yeah, good. You are about four sheets down the wind ways.
Starting point is 00:52:48 What does that even mean? I'm four sheets down the wind ways. I am being tweaked. I'm knuckle deep in Mr. Oink. I've got more booze. Eli, when we think of Christmas, what do we think of when it comes to boozes? I think of Baileys. Yeah, well...
Starting point is 00:53:05 I think they've made me think that by incessantly advertising. What about mulled wine? Or a nice mulled cider? I'd think of mulled wine, or port I think of as well. What other disgusting drink at Christmas? Eggnog. He's reaching! Eggnog!
Starting point is 00:53:18 Oh no! I've got oldie eggnog. I can't do this. Can I just say I can't do this? It's the luxurious and decadent eggnog flavour cream. Full luxurious read. A delicious seasonal drink inspired by festive eggnog. Inspired by festive eggnog.
Starting point is 00:53:34 It's eggnog flavoured cream, so it's probably a Bailey's. It hasn't got eggnog in it. Its alcohol percentage is 12%. So it's like wine. It's not good, but it doesn't have any egg, so it's not... Eggnog flavour cream. A blend of fresh cream, fermented alcohol, with spirit and flavour. Oh, there's no egg in it.
Starting point is 00:53:51 Because with a proper egg, you've got eggnog, innit? You've got to keep it in the fridge. Paul is... What's the half like? Is this cheap now? Yeah, it was about £4, that. £4? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:03 Wow. This is utter crap. Come on, was about four pound that. Four pounds. Yeah. Wow. This is utter crap. Come on, love. Have a sniff. It's not too strong. I guess it smells a bit like Bailey's. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:13 Right, I'm going to... You ready? Clean your glass. Have a little snifter of this. Here we go. I'll be in charge of the quantity. You be your own mum. It looks like spunk.
Starting point is 00:54:25 It does. It's very white. It looks like spunk. It does. It's very white. It's very anemic. That's eggnog style. That is the spunkiest drink I've ever seen. It doesn't look
Starting point is 00:54:32 like Bailey's. Bailey's is browner isn't it? Smells like Cadbury's cream egg. Yeah. It's got a very Now let's have a
Starting point is 00:54:39 little drink of it. Have a drink of it. I'm just going to do a little sip. I need a sip of that as well. Oh don't do that. That's horrible.
Starting point is 00:54:49 Not a full gag, but not a... He had a little mouth judder. Oh, have a little go of that. You're saying no? It's not good. It's not good. Oh, that's very cheap tasting. Oh, dear Lord.
Starting point is 00:55:02 It's like... Oh, that's really bad. It just tastes nasty. It's like... Oh, that's really bad. It just tastes nasty. It's like... It's like... I don't know. I'd rather eat spunk. Would you?
Starting point is 00:55:13 Because I've got some. Have you? Dried. I'm dried. He's finished it. Okay, so... Why is it so nasty, though? It's hard to describe.
Starting point is 00:55:23 Because you get the very sickly sweet hitting you. It's got the texture of the Baileys. It's got that texture to it. Yes, but it's
Starting point is 00:55:31 got this almost orangey kind of aftertaste. The alcohol just comes through and there's no bridge between the sweetness and
Starting point is 00:55:41 the alcohol. It just kind of comes up on you afterwards, the alcohol, like a rude boy. You know what I mean? You have to use the Dr. Pepper. Just use it around and the alcohol. It just kind of comes up on you afterwards, the alcohol, like a rude boy, you know what I mean? I have to use the Dr Pepper. Just use it around and clean up. And I'm mixing Dr Pepper

Starting point is 00:57:57 I'm not going to ruin it, but just think about wrapping it up. I'm Team Yeti and I will not be performing tonight. No, you will. I will not be performing tonight unless there's a change of attitude from certain individuals. Alright, well, we'll get to
Starting point is 00:58:13 I'll go back. I'll go back. I'll give you one more chance, Eli. Just talk to him. Talk to him. Okay, Jeanette. Yes, I will.

Starting point is 00:58:39 I'm sorry, mate. You are. Now, what other cheap eats do we have? Well, I thought we'd take a little break and then we'll come back with the finger food and the snacks for the Christmas dinner. Are we having a break before then? All right, let's talk about fucking music then.
Starting point is 00:58:51 Let's put some music on. Oh, I bought a Chas and Dave... No, a Chas and Dave album was given to us at Christmas. I love that. Now... Are we not having a break then? No, we'll talk about the music. Then we'll have a little break and then I'll get the food out.
Starting point is 00:59:03 Because we need music at this Christmas do. Well, we've got Teen Yeti performing. We do, but we need some background ambient music. What was his song called again? Christmas in Yeti Land. Yes.
Starting point is 00:59:13 Looking forward to it. It sounds magical. Could be the next Frog song. I think he's going for that. Yeah. Wide marketing. Looking forward to it. So, yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:23 So, the reason to bring it up because I've been playing it while we've been here at the party. I've just been playing this song, and it's Chaz and Dave's Christmas album. But you know what's interesting? It's not Christmassy. There's no Christmas songs in it. There isn't a single Christmas song in it. It was given to us at the live show, and it was, you know, because someone went, Ah, Chaz and Dave's, Charity Shop, Vinyl.
Starting point is 00:59:41 Ah, they'll like it. Yeah. But it's good. It's just, I think the feeling is, is that you put it on at a Christmas party. Yeah. It's kind of, you know. It's one They'll like it. Yeah. But it's good. It's just, I think the feeling is, is that you put it on at a Christmas party. Yeah. It's kind of, you know. It's one of those party records.
Starting point is 00:59:49 Yeah. It's just the same beat as Jaunty. Like we've covered before. But in terms of those having a knees up party records that used to come out, it's about as good as it's going to get, isn't it? Well, it's Chaz and Dave. They're fucking great musicians.
Starting point is 00:59:59 Chaz and Dave. They fucking great piano work. There's a kind of funkiness, yeah. Isn't there? There's a sort of, there's a pneumatic sort of bumpiness to the rhythm, of funkiness, yeah, isn't there? There's a sort of, there's a pneumatic sort of bumpiness to the rhythm, which is actually quite cool,
Starting point is 01:00:09 isn't it? It's interesting when you think about it. They're good players. They were session players, weren't they? Session? Were they? Yes.

Starting point is 01:02:39 is the first one's basically a riff on Stars on 45 but they call it it's a medley it's a medley but it has that thing where they keep the same rhythm beat, whatever, up front, the whole pace of the track.
Starting point is 01:02:50 They're mixed, yeah. But they play it live. They segue perfectly, yeah. Do they play it live and all in one take? Well, I think there are moments where the song stops and then they bring it back and fade in, fade out. They must have edited it. They must be some, like, yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:01 Side one is all of that. It's just a medley. Any old iron. Any old iron. Any old iron. Any, any, any old iron. Or I've been cleaning windows. I've been cleaning windows. Yeah, don't.
Starting point is 01:03:11 Mate, don't be singing. It's hard though, isn't it? Look, I can see Freddie Goon looking over. I know. He's so big as well. He's a huge man. He's attractive. Look, stop.
Starting point is 01:03:19 Maybe I'll go over with Freddie tonight. You can't. I'll ask him if he wants to come back. Don't give me up for that. He was already quite angry with you for singing, you know. All right, okay. Jimmy Biscuits is sold. All right.
Starting point is 01:03:28 Anything else to say about Chaz and Dave? I love them. Yeah, I love them. The B-side is impressive because that's another live set. The funny thing about Chaz and Dave is they were so ubiquitous
Starting point is 01:03:36 in the 80s that people, they were like this sort of byword for naffness, weren't they? Everyone hated them because it was associated with the type of Britain that was dying up,
Starting point is 01:03:43 that kind of earthy, cockney, you know what I mean? They were huge. People sort of resented their popularity. But people forgot that actually they wrote great tunes. Yeah. Played exemplary. He's just like great folk musicians. And when you listen to it back,
Starting point is 01:03:56 and just the fucking boogie woogie they've got going on. It's sweet and the fat bass. Yeah, yeah. It's great. It's great stuff. It's nice. So that's probably one of my favourite easy listening records ever actually
Starting point is 01:04:06 it's in the easy listening would you call it that it's like a party medley I mean they know they've made it as a throw away thing for Christmas but it's still good
Starting point is 01:04:13 but come on compare it to that what was that other one Les Dawson and the Irish no Ross Abbott that's the comparison
Starting point is 01:04:21 that's a party record but oh Bernard Manning Bernard Manning and although there are some dodgy songs on there I've always thought this is a genre we should cover more That's the comparison That's a party record But Oh Bernard Manning Bernard Manning and Yeah Although there are some dodgy songs on there
Starting point is 01:04:27 I've always thought this is a genre we should cover more on the pod So can we do more of those? Yeah There is one song Do you know they're all old standards Like Any Old Die And Laughing Policeman And all that kind of stuff
Starting point is 01:04:37 Laughing Policeman End of the Second World War Yes Musical sort of stuff There's one Because they're old fashioned Cleaning Windows Yeah
Starting point is 01:04:44 There's that song where it's like she's too fat for me yeah I've not known that one she's too fat for me did they make that one up no that's an old standard
Starting point is 01:04:50 it's like an old that one's been dropped from the piano in recent years hasn't it you don't really go around saying she's too fat you have her
Starting point is 01:04:57 not only is it misogynistic treating women as objects but also fat shaming all in one I mean like so that's what our Christmas music's been
Starting point is 01:05:06 what other Christmas songs do you like though I don't think we're talking about this are there any songs written for Christmas that you actually think are good songs
Starting point is 01:05:13 and good Christmas songs very very few yeah I quite like War Is Over I like Slade yeah
Starting point is 01:05:23 I mean it's Christmas I like that is the rumour true that that was like a B-side originally and then it got Slade yeah I mean it's Quint Smith I like that is the rumour true that that was like a B-side originally and then it got
Starting point is 01:05:29 accidentally released or they played it on the radio and then it was like oh it's a big hit now and now every Christmas their bank account goes ka-ching
Starting point is 01:05:36 I also like Wizard yeah but it's because of the music it's because of the actual music as well as the song it's just the way it's rock you know
Starting point is 01:05:43 I like the way it's when was the last original Christmas number one in the UK hit? Because all these days all it is is an X Factor fucking
Starting point is 01:05:51 singer doing an old ballad. But that's because the pop market has completely changed. Pop music of that kind of wide scale pop music doesn't
Starting point is 01:06:00 really exist anymore does it? No. Could you name a song that was like the biggest hit? Could you name the biggest pop hit of this year? Oh, no.
Starting point is 01:06:07 Fuck off. Well, there you go. Yeah, but you could back in the 80s, couldn't you? You could in the 90s. Maybe, yeah. But it's like there's more coming at us now in terms of music and sound and YouTube. I can't keep up. I can't keep up.
Starting point is 01:06:18 I know it is dead. I can't keep up. Pop doesn't exist like that anymore. Pop will eat itself. It has. It has. And now it's taken a shit. And now it's taken a big poo.
Starting point is 01:06:25 Yeah. So it's just going to be endless fucking Pogues. Endless. Forevermore. Because of the versions. The last Christmas song I remember being new and a hit. The Pogues, I'm sick of that. I'm totally sick of that.
Starting point is 01:06:36 I'm sick of that. I'm totally sick of that. And the Wham thing. The Wham again. Bullshit. I'm totally sick of that as well. Bullshit. The Darkness.
Starting point is 01:06:44 What was their one? The Bells Ring Out for Christmas Wasn't that Wizard? No I can't remember the title song But The Bells Oh fuck The Darkness is a crunk song
Starting point is 01:06:53 About bells at Christmas time But I wish it could be Christmas every day He goes The bells ring out For Christmas Oi Sorry

Right, well, on that point, I think we should take a little break. Freddie, can I give you my phone number? I'm already sick of Christmas, Paul. Honestly, I am.
Starting point is 01:07:54 I hate Christmas. I got tea bags for Christmas. I got tea bags for Christmas off my mate. I thought Mikasa Tsukasa was this thing, right, Paul, where we just bought a piece of shit and went, ah, that. I thought we might make a bit of an effort with it being Christmas, that was all. You certainly did.
Starting point is 01:08:14 But, Paul, to be honest, you're into this shit as well, aren't you? I am, but you were jealous of my R, so I've gotten you that. I fucking love it. I'm looking at it now and it just, it makes me, gives me a warm feeling of being around Sesame Street as a child, do you that. I fucking love it. I'm looking at it now and it just, it makes me, gives me a warm feeling of being around Sesame Street
Starting point is 01:08:27 as a child. Do you know what I mean? Hey, I'm Kermit the Frog. No, he, no. Hey, it's Miss Piggy. Oh,
Starting point is 01:08:34 Kermit, Kermit the Frog. Jimmy Biscuits is getting a call. Looks like he's getting a call from the Disney Foundation. Hello, yes. Oh, Disney? Wow. Okay.

Starting point is 01:09:18 And I said Sesame Street anyway Alright So not the Muppets I'm Grover He doesn't You're doing that voice again Cookie Monster Do you like it?
Starting point is 01:09:32 Paul you're too drunk To do the podcast I'm not too drunk Let's get this over and done with You're going to ruin any comedic I've got food I've got food for the party Now look what I've got
Starting point is 01:09:42 Food for the party Christmas Walkers. Oh, here we go. Right. So, we were talking about these many episodes ago. We should say very clearly from the start, this is not part of the official... League of Snacks and Crisps.
Starting point is 01:09:56 League of Snacks and Crisps. Sleeves of Snacks and Crisps. That's what he said. Sleeve my smacky crisps. Anyway, these are Christmas edition versions of Walker's Crisps. And they are Christmas flavoured snacks. What's the favourite Christmas? What's the favourite Christmas for you, Paul?
Starting point is 01:10:11 Well, for me, oh, it's eggnog. It's not eggnog. Do you have eggnog traditionally? You're just talking without thinking. That's what you're doing. I'll talk without thinking right now. Eli's big dick. Eli's big dick. Oh, Eli's big dick.
Starting point is 01:10:25 Oh, Freudian slip, much? You've gone automatically. This is what happens when you get pissed. You get real sex on for me. Turkey and cranberry and I like cherries, chocolate, orange. I think of that mulled wine smell. Oh, yeah. And like the fucking disgusting taste of fruitcake.
Starting point is 01:10:47 There's Christmas. I gave you my arse. I hate the whole palette of Christmas apart from ham. I like ham. I also like sprouts. But ham is not particularly Christmas, is it? Oh, it is. You're Christmas ham.
Starting point is 01:10:56 Anyway, Walkers have done some Christmas... What do you mean it's not particularly Christmas? Walkers have done a Christmas dinner for sprout lovers package. It's a six pack. Two flavors of Christmas-style snacks. So one is turkey and stuffing flavour. We'll try those. Pigs in blanket flavour.
Starting point is 01:11:11 And infamously, Brussels sprouts flavour. Now, that's the only one that has any real interest to me. Because turkey and stuffing flavour, what's that going to be? It's going to be a slightly more... Chickeny. Yeah, it'll be roast chicken flavour, won't it? With a more oniony sort of maybe. That's my prediction. Yeah. Yeah, it'll be roast chicken flavour, won't it? With more of an onion-y sort of maybe. That's my prediction.
Starting point is 01:11:26 Yeah. It'll be roast chicken with an onion-y, more onion-y. Pigs in blankets, bacon, smoky bacon. Fucking smoky bacon. As an aside,
Starting point is 01:11:33 as an aside, in case you didn't like the Brussels sprouts flavour of these crisps, they brought out another six pack which had no Brussels sprouts but instead it had
Starting point is 01:11:42 like a cheese thing instead in there. I can't remember what it was, but it was an alternate flavour. That's silly. You know, people do people... I think we should save brussel sprouts for last. Yes, we should. Let's watch this. This is... Let's go for the turkey. Alright, let's do
Starting point is 01:11:55 turkey stuffing. Give it a half. I'm opening the bag. What do you think it smells of? Roast chicken flavoured crisps. Have a sniff of that. Yeah. Oh. It's not bad, but it tastes like chicken.
Starting point is 01:12:11 It tastes like roast chicken snacks. There's a slight difference. Is there? To me, it smells like beef crisps, which you know what it sees these days. Oh, I see what you mean. Remember beef flavoured crisps? Yeah. Mixed with a chicken flavoured crisp.
Starting point is 01:12:23 Well, let's have a taste. I'll take a crisp. Here we go. I'm entering the crisp temple. Ah. It does have a turkey flavour. I will say that for it. Really?
Starting point is 01:12:37 Yeah. And you can taste a bit of the stuffing. A bit of that sagey kind of saison onion thing. Now, to me, they just taste very much like a roast chicken flavour. Really? Yeah. I think there's a bit of turkey therey kind of saison onion thing now to me they just taste very much like a roast chicken really I think there's a bit of turkey there hang on
Starting point is 01:12:48 no no no no okay regardless of that is it a nice snack though quite nice yeah quite nice I like them
Starting point is 01:12:57 yeah they're nice walkers you know you're going to get a nice flavoured that is just chicken yeah I told you fucking call it
Starting point is 01:13:04 just call it turkey mate I'm trying not to spit huge flecks of crisp at me sorry just call it turkey stuffing give it chicken flavour
Starting point is 01:13:14 yeah pigs in blankets yeah these mugs these crisp buying public they're cunts it's just fucking bacon
Starting point is 01:13:22 we'll just keep them confused bob them off about the existence or non-existence of cheese moments. We'll just keep them confused about it. Did you hear that tweet? Yeah. Someone saw one in Scotland off the island.
Starting point is 01:13:31 Yeah, but I didn't see any photographs. I didn't see any photographs. And when I said, why didn't you get any? He said, oh, he's running late, so he could. I think it's pooey bullshit. Pooey bullshit. Pooey. Really?
Starting point is 01:13:40 Yeah. Well, he's not going to be happy. I don't care. No, that's right, Paul. Because I think perhaps what happened is he saw one of these backboards that has Cheese Moments still on it. And he got confused. Yeah. Because it did confuse me.
Starting point is 01:13:52 Because Walkers have officially said they've officially released a statement, haven't they, Paul? Yeah. And what does that statement basically say? It basically said, because we don't have it to hand right now, because it's our Christmas party and we've got some time off. Anyway, it says something to the effect of we stopped doing them ages ago.
Starting point is 01:14:07 We might bring them back but don't think about it. Corporate nonsense. We appreciate your feedback. So I think that's really put the... Feedback is. It's put the issue to bed,
Starting point is 01:14:16 isn't it? No one's been able to produce a packet of cheese moments for me. No. It's a unicorn of snacks. I want to see it and I want to see a packet
Starting point is 01:14:24 with a best before date that isn't, you know, two years in the past. 1986. Yeah. It's a unicorn of snacks. I want to see it and I want to see a packet with a best before date that isn't, you know, two years in the past. Yeah. Although I would like to see one which has a bag that is off
Starting point is 01:14:31 because I'd eat those. Yeah. Not fussy. Right, next snack. What would you give it out of five? Three. It's a standard crisp. Three Christmas puddings
Starting point is 01:14:39 out of five. That's good. I like roast chicken flavoured crisps. But am I right as well? You don't see beef flavoured crisps very often these days. No, only Mont-de-Mont, really. Maybe McCoy's.
Starting point is 01:14:49 Yeah. Anyway, pigs and blanket. I'm giving it the old... Give it the huff. Bacon. Bacon. It didn't seem very secure in your utterance of bacon. I mean, give it a sniff. What do you think?
Starting point is 01:15:02 You've got a better nose than me. No, no. You're right. It's not very bacon-y. But there's a bit of sausage there. There's definitely some sausage. You can get a bit of sausage on the end of your nose. I can get a sausage right up my nose. I'm going to taste these now.
Starting point is 01:15:16 Bacon. The half on both of these has been more unusual than the actual taste, if you ask me. Yeah. Again, satisfying flavour. Yeah, they're good crisp. Walker's bacon are good. Smoky bacon are good, aren't they? I sometimes go for them with my meal deal. Good choice.
Starting point is 01:15:32 You know? Get a sandwich. When I'm feeling decadent, I get cheddars. Mini cheddars. You can't go wrong with mini cheddars. Well, you can. I hate them. Here we go.
Starting point is 01:15:44 The one we're all talking about. We haven't done mini cheddars on the League of Snacks, have we? We'll get there. Anyway, here we go. The Brussels sprouts flavoured crisps. Without any further ado, let's open it up. I don't know. What would it be like? What was it going to be like?
Starting point is 01:15:58 Give it a huff. It smells like Brussels sprout farts. Give that a snuff. Ooh. Ooh, I like these. I already like these. Do you? He's giving it a proper snuff.
Starting point is 01:16:11 Oh, there's something slightly gherkin-y about it. Oh, he's reached his tickle point. Oh, mate, and they've got a green... I hope we caught that. Yeah. Anyway, a drogan next door. We've kicked... He's not allowed in the party.
Starting point is 01:16:26 These are green. I have to, I have to shake a few out for you here, Paul. Yeah, they're green. They're tinged. They're tinged. Now that's a bit dodgy.
Starting point is 01:16:33 Yeah. Do you remember when you used to get Golden Wonder cheese and onion flavour and they'd actually have green potatoes in? That weren't, like, Yeah, but I like them.
Starting point is 01:16:41 Right, let's eat them. Oh. They do taste of Brussels sprouts, though. I like those a lot. I like those a lot. Those are nice. There's a bit of cheesy onion to it as well. A little bit. It's quite subtle.
Starting point is 01:16:55 But it's very Brussels sprout-y. You know what they taste like? Brussels sprouts? No, they taste like that crispy seaweed that you get in Chinese restaurants. Oh, yeah. Which is, in fact, cabbage that they've cooked. You know what I mean? Don't they taste a bit like that? Yeah, they're nice. I like restaurants. Oh, yeah. Which is in fact cabbage that they've cooked. You know what I mean? Don't they taste a bit like that?
Starting point is 01:17:06 Yeah, they're nice. I like them. They're good. They're novelty. Yeah. They're a bit farty. I like them. I like those.
Starting point is 01:17:13 That's a flavour of crisp I haven't experienced before. What would you give the pigs and blankets out of five? Another three for me. And what about the Brussels sprouts?
Starting point is 01:17:20 I'll go four on Brussels sprouts. I'm going to say three. Fine, but a novelty. No, you don't think that could I could eat that as a regular it does now that I've eaten
Starting point is 01:17:29 a few it feels like someone's boffed in my gob put their bum hole right in your mouth hole yep anyway
Starting point is 01:17:36 the snacks keep coming good episode Paul what's coming what's coming up mini rolls everyone loves Cadbury's mini rolls everyone loves Cadbury's mini rolls these are the brand

It's alright, that one's been a still for a while. Yeah? At a right angle, you're thinking too much about the horizontal. Like that? Yeah. But even more at a right angle.

I don't want one. So a mini roll's just chocolate sponge with a creamy centre and it's all swirly in the middle, hence the roll. Cadbury's make lovely ones. I don't want any. Eat that.
Starting point is 01:18:49 I've fucking bought these now. I've spent 20 quid on all this. Which, you know, on a budget, is quite good, actually. It's a fucking spring. It's a roll. It's shit.

Starting point is 01:19:09 do you know what I mean the chocolate has nothing it doesn't taste chocolatey at all just that sweet that is it's that sharp sweetness that you always talk about
Starting point is 01:19:16 that is a bad facsimile of a mini roll really awful it's funny how you get to appreciate like a mini roll when you compare it to no yeah
Starting point is 01:19:24 like a Cadbury's one. This spiky, sugary shit. Yeah, this awful, awful, sharp sugar. It's really bad, isn't it? He's putting it in the bin. It's in the bin already. Those are bad. How much were they?

Starting point is 01:19:54 Good. Thanks. Festive edition. Can you cut that out And put it at the beginning Of this segment Yeah I'll do that I won't And I haven't
Starting point is 01:20:12 Fucking hell Paul Fucking masks are slipping A bit isn't it You twats Try not to fall over Now You've had too much Jack Daniels
Starting point is 01:20:24 Every Christmas There are certain things That are common Around the Christmas tree In the UK A box of quality street A tin of roses You know
Starting point is 01:20:33 And certain snacks What else? What I'm going to say right now Yeah but say another one Before you go to that one Bag of nuts Don't mind if I do Tangerines
Starting point is 01:20:43 Easy peel Stop now Because I said Start again Quality street Quality street Bag of nuts. Ooh, don't mind if I do. Tangerines. Easy peel. Stop now. Because I said... Clementines. Start again. Quality street. Quality street. Ooh.
Starting point is 01:20:49 Bag of nuts. Ten of roses. Ooh. Or perhaps you'd like something like a big bag of nuts. Ooh, don't mind if I do. Lame. So... You cut that bit and put it back in the beginning.
Starting point is 01:20:59 No, I might even just cut this out completely. Because it was shit. Come on. It didn't work. Anyway. Fuck you. If didn't work. Anyway. Fuck you. If there's one thing that you see under a Christmas tree, certainly in my house growing up,
Starting point is 01:21:10 I don't know about your house, but... We were Jewish, Paul. It was popular. Yeah, basically. No, we celebrated Christmas. Yeah, because you were heathens. So you would have a big box of matchmakers. We never had those.
Starting point is 01:21:23 Really? No. They were popular in my house. Orange matchmakers and mint. Mint were the famous ones. But these box of matchmakers. We never had those. Really? No. They were popular in my house. Orange matchmakers and mint. Mint were the famous ones. But these aren't matchmakers. Were they called matchmakers? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:21:31 Was that the actual branded one is called a matchmaker? And they were long. Who makes those, Capri? I don't know, actually. Thorntons? No. It's one of those. Anyway, chocolate.
Starting point is 01:21:39 It's a proper brand, not this. These are made by Choc-er. Where did you get these? Lidl. Lidl. So it's a Lidl knock-off. Little bit knock-off. No, you're singing.
Starting point is 01:21:49 Freely singing. No, that's not. That's a jingle. Little bit knock-off. No, it's not. It is. Who? For Lidl?
Starting point is 01:21:56 Yeah. They can't. Look. They're knocking on our door asking for jingles. Jimmy Driscuit's car phone is really off the hook. What's that? Lidl? What the?
Starting point is 01:22:05 What? Don't do the Liddle shit. They don't need it. Sorry, Jimmy. Sorry, Jimmy. All right. I don't know where Freddy Goon is. Must be in the toilet or something.
Starting point is 01:22:13 Little bit of dip-oo. No. Stop. I love you doing it, though. Why? I'll risk a court case. Because it's funny. Open the minstics.
Starting point is 01:22:21 It's funny when I say, Little, little, little. No, it's not. Who do you mean little? These fucking syllables. These syllables just recur. There's all the little small ones. Are these smaller than you remember them?
Starting point is 01:22:32 Yeah, because they're longer matchmakers. Oh, they're longer, you're right. And these are called mint sticks by Chocolat. So let's just have a little nibble on a mint stick. Oh, they're all right. Not bad. Not bad. The sharp sugariness of the cheap chocolate works better in this context, doesn't it? With the mint. nibble on a mint stick. Oh, they were right. Not bad. Not bad.
Starting point is 01:22:46 The sharp sugariness of the cheap chocolate works better in this context, doesn't it? With the mint. Yeah, with the minty bit. Oh, okay. Much better. Much better than the Hollylands, yeah.
Starting point is 01:22:53 Yeah, because that was not good. That was horrible. Awful. And you couldn't even taste the cream. No, it's... Like a bad Twinkie. It's a bad thing. Mint sticks?
Starting point is 01:23:03 So what? Our conclusion so far is spend some money on your Swiss rolls or whatever. No, if you're on a budget, this is alright, the mint sticks. Oh, they're good, but you want to spend some money on the, what are these called? Choc rolls. Don't get choc rolls. Don't get them.
Starting point is 01:23:15 They're awful. Mini rolls are the cool. I'd eat about seven bags of those Brussels crisps and then go to the loo. And then I'd shit. Wow. Worth it. Paul, what do you mean worth it? What else you got in your sack of goodies?
Starting point is 01:23:32 Another thing under the tree, again on a minty chocolate flavour, is the world famous after eight mint, the Le Fafir Mint. Which was sold initially as a sort of yuppie product, you know, sophisticated, but that got very ironically,
Starting point is 01:23:47 sort of, very quick. It was like Vionetta in the 80s. Like, ooh, Vionetta, you're posh.
Starting point is 01:23:52 And now it's like, oh, 90p, mate. You know what I mean? So, I love my After 8 Mints. I quite like it.
Starting point is 01:23:59 I like the little design, the little clock in the middle with the thing. Yeah, yeah. It's like, after you've eaten your meal, sir, we'll give you a think that's to uh and did you know because of the meaning of life by monty python yeah where he's the mr creosote scene yeah he tries to feed
Starting point is 01:24:14 him a wafer mint the actual pronunciation of the word wafer yeah is changing because of that film so more people are saying wafer because they've that's the only time they've come across that so they think because everyone says wafer the thing, whenever you say, you know what I mean? When that's mentioned, because they've all seen the film, people actually, children are starting to think that's how you say wafer. That's depressing.
Starting point is 01:24:36 It's weird. No, just language is constantly mutating like that, isn't it? We are going to try these knockoffs called Mint Thins. Buy again. Same company. Chocure. They're not a real company. Dark chocolate with a peppermint flavoured fondant filling. They're a brand that has been invented
Starting point is 01:24:51 by Lidl. They're not going to be available anywhere else, are they, apart from Lidl? Now, what are their sleeves like? They're little sleeves, just like the... That's the class, though, of the after eight. The little wet sleeves they put in little bit of
Starting point is 01:25:06 wastage yeah it's waste it's horrible fucking waste for what these have no design on them they've got the
Starting point is 01:25:13 they've got the chocker they've got a ripple have they got chock no they don't they just have a oh actually on the actual wafer itself
Starting point is 01:25:19 no nothing on the wafer itself let's have a little bite they're a bit thicker than an After 8 well they feel it No, nothing on the wafer itself. Let's have a little bite. They're a bit thicker than an after eight. They taste a bit coconutty. Yeah, you're right.
Starting point is 01:25:34 Maybe they've got coconut in them. No. Let me see. I think they're all right for knock-offs. Again, it's that sharpness. There's not enough chocolate taste. No, it's a lot of sugar. Dark chocolate, 51%. Yeah. Cocoa,
Starting point is 01:25:48 sugar, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Peppermint flavour, fondant filling. Glucose, gelling agent. No. No coconut, but perhaps it's that gelling agent and stuff that I'm tasting and it reminds me of a bounty because it's got that in it as well. It has something in the fondant. It's got something.
Starting point is 01:26:04 It tastes like confectionery-style coconut. Yeah. Like a mound. We had mounds on this show, didn't we? Eli knows his creamy fillings in his mouth. He knows the difference. Why is that, Paul? Why is that, though?
Starting point is 01:26:14 I don't know. What is it about me personally that makes me like that? Because you've got a good tongue for cream. Yeah. Good. All right. Thank you. I'm actually really drunk. I know, man. Yeah Good I'll just Alright thank you I'm actually really drunk I know man
Starting point is 01:26:29 Let's just get this over with I'm at that point now Where the room is moving Even though I'm still That's not good Paul You're lightweight as well That's the only other problem When was the last time
Starting point is 01:26:38 You had a drink You've been boozing it up With your new girlfriend Haven't you Who's not so new anymore No I don't mean she's old. I meant she's not so new to you.
Starting point is 01:26:47 Where's your girlfriend? I don't have one. Merry Christmas. Come on. I've got a load of food, but we've got too much. What do you want to do? I'll let you talk. I'll show you what we've got left, and you can just pick one that we eat.
Starting point is 01:27:01 I want to eat them all. Why can't we have them all? We've got stackers. They look like knock-off what we eat. All right. I want to eat them all. Why can't we have them all? We've got stackers. They look like knock-off Pringles. Barbecue. Original. Sour cream and onion. We've got...
Starting point is 01:27:19 A mince pie. I don't like mince pies. I don't like them. Right, well, that's that sorted. I've got a little Christmas cake. Oh, I hate, oh that's so grim there. I've also got a Christmas cake. Mini marzipan topped.
Starting point is 01:27:38 Those do not appeal to me at all. Have you got anything else? No, that's it. Let's try the Pringles. Let's try the Pringles. Try the knock off Pringles. Yeah, fine. Pringles. Try the knock-off Pringles. Yeah. Fine.
Starting point is 01:27:47 I'll eat those cakes later. You will. I don't want them to go to waste, Paul. No. You'll have those mince pies? Oh. Paul. Oh.
Starting point is 01:27:55 Paul. Oh. Paul. Feeling hot, hot, hot. Let's just try it. Shh. Don't sing. Don't sing. Now he's talking to himself. I'm talking to me. All right. You all right, Paul, hot. Let's just try it. Shh, don't sing. Don't sing. Now he's talking to himself.
Starting point is 01:28:05 I'm talking to me. All right. You all right, Paul? Yeah. What should we do? I've got stackers. Where's the... You've got three, but there's only two here.
Starting point is 01:28:14 I've got original. I've got barbecue. Shush. What else have we got? Paul. Oh, there they are. Now I've got them. Pass the fake Pringles over.
Starting point is 01:28:27 What are they called? Stackers by Snack Right. Which is another stupid name. Snack Right. Again, I think Oldie owned this or Lidl. Where did you get this? All from Lidl, didn't you get it? All from Lidl or all from Oldie.
Starting point is 01:28:39 I got them all from one place, so it's all from one of them. You don't remember which supermarket you were in? No. I don't. Do supermarket you were in? No. I don't. Do you remember anything? This is your life. You're meant to be experiencing it from moment to moment.
Starting point is 01:28:52 I tune in and out of my own life. I know you do. Even when you're making a podcast. I don't know. I'm not part of it. You are. Right, Paul.
Starting point is 01:29:02 I don't know what's happened to you. I know what's happened to you I know what's happened to you but I've had a little bit of Campari Yeah, don't do it Don't do this one, please Don't do this one Had a little
Starting point is 01:29:11 Do you want some more farty crisps? You can have some farty crisps I like those They're alright I like them You can have the farty crisps Open the stackers Well, they're like Pringles
Starting point is 01:29:23 but they're knock-offs SnackRite did the infamous Hula Hoop knockoffs That made all the newspapers Saying they were indistinguishable From the original Hula Hoop But actually Well in terms of the design
Starting point is 01:29:33 And the flavour They were exactly like Hula Hoops We were able to distinguish Yeah But we did agree as well That they were Fine Totally great alternative
Starting point is 01:29:42 To Hula Hoops on a budget But you could tell the difference So let's just see how stackers stack up. No, don't. I've still got it even though I'm tipsy. I know. It's hilarious. You've still got it.
Starting point is 01:29:54 Paul, I'm so glad you're here. I hope we do slow dancing. I hope Teen Yeti does a slow song at the end and we can slow dance. Well, it's his new song. It's going to be a big Christmas hit. It's his debut. Anyway, what would you like. Well, it's his new song and it's his... It's going to be a big Christmas hit. It's his debut. Anyway, what would you like to do?
Starting point is 01:30:08 It's his Christmas song debut. He's had other hits, obviously. Pringles aren't potato crisps, are they, strictly speaking? They are reformed potato mash and they're made of injection moulded potato. That's weird, isn't it?
Starting point is 01:30:19 Well, discos are the same thing, aren't they? Yeah, that's true. And I like a disco. I like a disco. And so is a square crisp. These are all based on just the way they make monster munch, but out of mashed corn.
Starting point is 01:30:29 I guess. You know, if you're objecting to that, it's like... It's just like Biffo. Mr. Biffo hates the texture of Pringles. Some people do, yeah. Because he thinks they're fake snacks. But I bet he happily guzzles down a spaced invader or space raider. He likes those, exactly.
Starting point is 01:30:42 He's a fucking two-faced liar. Isn't he? No, biffer. Making me... You know what he made me do for Digitizer? What? Fucking drop prawn juice on my face. He did, I saw that.
Starting point is 01:30:53 Fucking laughing at me as a baby thing. Making me sniff dirty rings. And you sniffed them. I sniffed them. You sniffed them. They're nasty. Military made. They're made for military things.
Starting point is 01:31:03 So they get used to... Like, you know, like, people who might be around a lot of death or nastiness. What? It's for training people for the smell of death? Like the army. So, like, yeah, of course. Because, you know, your army soldiers used to go in and be like, ugh, when there's, like,
Starting point is 01:31:14 corpses everywhere rotting in the sun. So, they go and make them sniff it so they can get used to it. Like bin men, I guess, who have to get used to Merry Christmas. They don't train bin men with, like with bin juice sniffing sessions, do they? Hey, we're doing some testing down at the fucking bin shop today. Sniff this. It's me cock. I don't think that's on the test, sir.
Starting point is 01:31:34 Oh, but the cheese has got such a lovely flavour. It's very camembert-like. Ooh, the cheese off the end of my dick. Anyway, let's just start with sour cream and onion, because I fucking hate that flavour, so let's get it out of my dick. Now, Mary. Anyway, let's just start with sour cream and onion because I fucking hate that flavour
Starting point is 01:31:47 so let's get it out of the way. Now, again, they're just like Pringles, ladies and gentlemen. You hate sour cream and chive flavour? No. Yeah. Oh, they're smaller a little bit but they have the exact same shape.
Starting point is 01:31:58 Paraboloid. They are slightly smaller, aren't they? Paraboloid. Do you know why I know that? Why do you know that? Because in Ghostbusters, Holtzman's eaten them at the beginning of the film and he goes, you can't get enough of these salty paraboloids or something Do you know why I know that? Why do you know that? Because in Ghostbusters, Holtzman's eaten them at the beginning of the film
Starting point is 01:32:05 and she goes, you can't get enough of these salty paraboloids or something. So that's how I know these are shaped. The original Ghostbusters? No, the 2016 one.
Starting point is 01:32:12 Oh, right. Yeah, Holtzman. She eats one, she goes, these salty paraboloids. It's a paraboloid. So that's the... Probably.
Starting point is 01:32:18 Topology, I think they call it. Study of surfaces. Paraboloid. Let's eat them. They've got a harder texture. Yeah, they are a little bit tighter and I like that. Itaboloid. Let's eat them. They've got a harder texture. Yeah, they are a little bit harder, and I like that. It's more crunch. I wouldn't say it's more crunch. It's just a different type of crunch.
Starting point is 01:32:31 They haven't managed to replicate the texture, have they? Do you know what I mean? Yeah. That's alright. I mean, I don't like cheese and chive, though, as a flavour. They're fine. Fine, just fine. Alright, next one. Barbecue. Now now when people say barbecue what does that say to you
Starting point is 01:32:47 because it seems like a weird thing today what does it say to me when people say barbecue as in flavour I think it's quite clear what it means Paul then explain to me
Starting point is 01:32:55 you fucking cunt you're fucking rude lucky game me like fucking and Rob's on the weakest link which we'll be playing on an upcoming episode We've got it coming
Starting point is 01:33:05 The best moment Of the pod so far Tonight for me Paul Yeah Is when you said I don't even think About anything I'm just
Starting point is 01:33:14 I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just
Starting point is 01:33:15 I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just
Starting point is 01:33:15 I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just
Starting point is 01:33:18 I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just
Starting point is 01:33:19 I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just
Starting point is 01:33:19 I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just
Starting point is 01:33:19 I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just
Starting point is 01:33:20 I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just
Starting point is 01:33:24 I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just I'm just Dick. That was the first three words out of your mouth. Right, so. All three wrong. Barbecue refers to a style of sauce from the Americas. And what's that, though? Not Americas, from America. Yeah, but what's that, though? Especially when it's BBQ. Yeah, which is what it is on here.
Starting point is 01:33:38 But what does that even mean? It depends what region of the States you're from. But generally, it's sugar or molasses, chilli and tomato, isn't it? And vinegar in different combinations of those. All right, well, cayenne. You know. Cayenne? Smoked.
Starting point is 01:33:54 It's a smoked. You're not another character from Superman. It's a smoked flavour. Can we agree with that? He's shrugging. Oh. That's not... Smells like a kind of British calf.
Starting point is 01:34:07 That's very weak. Very weak flavour. It's a strange smell. It's not very good. It just hasn't got the amplitude you'd need. There he says it. It's just poking out. It's like a dirty sock. Well, let's try it. Those are not nice. Oh, they are not nice. And also, it tastes more like Chinese ribs. Yeah. It's sweet.
Starting point is 01:34:30 They've gone for the sweetness. Very sweet. That doesn't even taste like I thought it was going to taste. No. There's some heat there. It's a bit porky as well, isn't it? Not too bad. Really?
Starting point is 01:34:39 If I was going to pick out those two, I'd go for the chives. Yeah. And what's our last one? Original. This is salt and vinegar. Salt and... Ready salted. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:34:50 Ready salted. A nice plain end. I think we should have started with that as a palate cleanser in neutral. I mean, it smells like... Smells like crisps. Smells like crisps. I'll have one of these. Oh, you dropped your...
Starting point is 01:35:01 Your stackers. Yeah. Slightly more creamy flavour. Perfectly good. How much cheaper are those than Pringles? A lot. I think they're like 80p. And how much would a tube of Pringles cost, do you think?
Starting point is 01:35:14 Close to £2 some places. Really? Yeah. You always go and see, oh, half price is like £1.50. And you think, really? Yeah. Fuck off, Pringles. They sell those half pots as well now, don't they?
Starting point is 01:35:24 For 50p? Yeah. No, they're like one quid, the half pots. Fuck off, Pringles. They sell those half pots as well now, don't they? For 50p. Yeah. No, they're like one quid, the half pots. Fuck off, Pringles. I like those extreme ones. I've not had them. You've never had Pringles Extreme? No.
Starting point is 01:35:33 They go for like a more chilli, cheesy sort of, yeah. But also, the other thing to be said is that I would have those and pay less. That's a real savoury you could make on staffers, don't you think? Yeah, I think so. I'd eat those ready salted just as happily as I'd eat some Pringles. What the fuck? Nice neutral snack. What the fuck? Yeah, fine. But, two out of five,
Starting point is 01:35:52 two out of five, three out of five. Right, he's pointed at the two flavoured ones for the two out of five score and the ready salted gets three. Gets more for you. What about you? I'd probably go three out of five for the chive and I like that flavour. Didn't like the barbecue, too.
Starting point is 01:36:07 And, you know, we've got a lot in common, too. What do you mean? Me and you. We should hang out more. Outside the show. Outside of work. I don't think we should. We should hang out more.
Starting point is 01:36:17 I don't like to. Do you like going to pop concerts? Well, it's funny you should say that, Paul. Yeah. Because at the end of the show, we've got an exclusive with Teen Yeti. I can't wait. This is great.
Starting point is 01:36:28 He's coming out here. This has actually been, you know, on reflection, this Christmas too, on reflection, this has actually turned out to be fucking awful. Oh, Paul, he turned it around. What a lovely bit of comic wordplay. Not. I'm going to have a fight with someone. Oh, don't.
Starting point is 01:36:47 About time, in this time of night where you turn on someone in your office and you give them a piece of your mind after a year of pointing up with their bullshit. Eli. Okay, guys. Yeah, it's Freddie here. Okay, now, I hate to interrupt you, but Mr. Biscuit has asked me to come over here and just say

Can you fucking tell Jimmy Biscuit and that cunt Yelly? Excuse me, my friend. Excuse me, my friend. Can you fucking tell? You tell him what? Now you're making me hard in the downstairs again. Is that your catchphrase now? Is that the one you've gone with with this character?
Starting point is 01:37:19 You're making me hard downstairs. Is that generally what it is now? I just want to get clarification so I can give you a better lead. Now, you listen to me, my friend. You will not be asking the creator of me what the catchphrase is. Okay.
Starting point is 01:37:33 I am Freddy Goon. Yeah. I'm telling you, you've got to pipe down. Yeah. You've got to pipe down out here. Right, well, there we go. Everyone calm down now. Grab a drink.

Let's just stop the doing this now. What are we going to do? This is all. I've got to drink. I've got to drink. I know you've been drinking too much and that's that.

It's period, isn't it? You don't like them. It's a period. It's like, don't like them. You don't like periods. Okay, Miss Ojo humour.

Starting point is 01:43:34 I did. So Paul was about to leave to return from his family home where he'd been visiting his parents and the water tank was flooding through the house down into the kitchen. And you had to leave how soon
Starting point is 01:43:43 before you had to leave? Oh, it's a long story. Basically, I fell out the attic. That's all you need to know. You fell out the attic that was flooding 20 minutes before you had to catch a coach. I saved me and mum's house from flooding out. Well done. But now I ache and I'm drunk and I'm sorry.
Starting point is 01:43:58 Okay, let's finish. I'm sorry I hit you. It's okay. I'm sorry that Tigni Had it's moments tonight He let himself down He totally did It was mobbed up The whole involvement of Jimmy Biscuits
