CheapShow - Ep 209: The 2nd Annual Office Christmas Party

Episode Date: December 18, 2020

Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays! It's been an odd, difficult year and to celebrate getting through 2020, it's time for Paul & Eli to have their 2nd (OK, not completely annual) Office Christmas Party! A...fter Eli ruined the first office party, Paul has taken it upon himself to arrange the venue himself. However, this super stylish, modern high tech home could be more trouble than its worth... Especially considering the home’s owner and the company Paul used to hire the venue! Apart from that, it's "eat, drink and be merry" as the Cheap Chaps dive into a Xmas Party on a budget. They tackle novelty snacks, cheap "retro" alcoholic classics and all sorts of other Christmas food. Also, gifts! What did Paul & Eli get each other for Christmas, sourced from the finest charity shops in London? You can find out just HOW disappointing they are. As the drinks flow and the booze takes it evil toll, just how loud, vulgar and explosive will this episode be? Find out in a packed episode! HO HO HO! (Episode contains more bad language than usual.

Starting point is 00:00:00 it could be christmas every day oh i just get it all the foods out nice little bowl put it over there. Yeah, we've got all the drinks laid out, the booze, got the Christmas decorations up. Oh, it's all exciting. Oh, I tell you. Oh, I love Christmas, me. And this is going to be the best Christmas Officeworks do ever. I've got a nice place set up, lovely atmosphere. It's so Christmassy.
Starting point is 00:00:40 I'm just waiting for Eli to turn up now. Oh, it's the ruddy door. I better go get it. Hi. Hello, Eli. Come on in out the cold and the wind and the rain. You know what? It's cold outside.
Starting point is 00:00:56 It's mouth noisy out there, that's for sure. It's very mouth noisy. It's very mouth noisy outside. So come in. What's all this? Whose party is this? It's our Christmas works do, mate. This is what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:01:07 I thought we were here to do a podcast. We are, mate, but it's our works do. We're going to do both. You know about what my rule is since last year? What's your rule? Can't drink and do the podcast. You can. I get a bit open.
Starting point is 00:01:19 I've only got a few little drinks. Do you want me open? Do you want me wide open? Merry Christmas, Mr. Gannon. I'm getting Christmas wide open. Is that what this is? Have you got those Rohypnol wipes? No, what do you mean wipes?
Starting point is 00:01:32 Well, to show if there's Rohypnol smeared in the glass in a jelly form. No, there's no Rohypnol. Jelly form Rohypnol. There's nothing like that. There is jelly form Rohypnol in my glasses. Okay, so last time when we had our party, right, we did it in the House of Pickles and it was massively... That was a good one. No, it wasn't because... That was a good one.
Starting point is 00:01:50 Who's the host with the most Elias? He'll bring you the wine. He'll bring you the food. You spent £250 on a venue we used day in, day out. So I never saw that £250 again. It was very suspicious. It went for costs.
Starting point is 00:02:05 So also... All a lot of costs, Paul. Your presents were shit, I seem to remember. And it was an overall underwhelming experience. On the presents front. This year, I have outdone myself. I've got you not one, not two, Paul. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:20 But three. Three presents. Great. And you can guess the price. It counts as a price to shite as well. Oh presents. Great. And you can guess the price. It counts as a price a shot as well. Oh, fuck off. Price-o, de shot-o. I don't want to do anything.
Starting point is 00:02:31 Tits on a man-o-benton, price-o, de shot-o. I don't want to do any segments. It's a shot-o. What, the price-o? We're not... We'll do a call and response. I go, it's the price-o. And you go, what, the shot-o?
Starting point is 00:02:43 Go on, then. Oh, it's the price-o. And you go, what, the charter? Go on, then. Oh, it's the price-o. No. Oh, you party pooper. Come on, this is the one point of the year, the one episode where we get to let our hair down. And I might do that quite literally. Literally.
Starting point is 00:02:59 Literally. I might literally. Laboratory. Laboratory. Laboratory. Laboratory. But if you say laboratory, it sounds like you're saying I have a Labrador
Starting point is 00:03:06 and a Tory Labrador Tory Labrador I think someone's made that joke maybe a laboratory I'm going to do it now laboratory
Starting point is 00:03:13 yeah but there's no context I don't care no but what's the the set up is what happens if you take Michael Gove into a
Starting point is 00:03:23 a pet shop yeah he buys a laboratory. No, it's not very good at all. So my outer context. Look forward, dear listener, to more of this on the show today. Oh, he wants to do it. Let me just say, right, that I've rented this place out, right? This is a nice posh house. It looks quite nice, actually, yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:43 Yes, it's a very nice, posh location. I thought we'd keep it classy. So we've got some nice, classy food and drink, you know, all on a budget. We'll have a nice... Because this house is like... What's it, Airbnb? Just for the party?
Starting point is 00:03:54 Do they do that? Yeah, no, Airbnb can let you have a house. It's massive, isn't it? This isn't Airbnb. This is one of those kind of knock-off Airbnbs. Knock-off Airbnb? What? It could be dodgy.
Starting point is 00:04:03 I've heard some dodgy things about those, Paul. Yeah, this one's all right. It's called Air... Should have just given me. Air what? Air Braff and B. But it's Air spelled H-E-I-R. Right.
Starting point is 00:04:15 Oh, Air. I am the Air to the... Yeah. Not as in Herr Führer. Air B. Air B. And Roth. I think it says there.
Starting point is 00:04:24 Yeah. Air B and Roth. Oh it says there Airbnb and Roth oh I'm gone let me have a look at this why can't you just go to Airbnb Airbnb and Roth it's a subsidiary of Brandoff Enterprise
Starting point is 00:04:40 it's Brandoff I'm fucking you've hired the venue from Brand off Well not directly I didn't know it was One of his subsidiary companies Well he's got fingers
Starting point is 00:04:49 In every pie He's the That's why he's in prison Yeah Because he had too many fingers In too many pies Yeah but the tentacles Are still there
Starting point is 00:04:54 And they've got Their own neurons in Did you know that An octopus's brain Is spread out And a lot of their neurons Are actually in the arms So their arms can think
Starting point is 00:05:04 Independently Oh Christ Of the whole system Paul And that's how And a lot of their neurons are actually in the arms. So their arms can think independently. Oh, Christ. Of the whole system, Paul. And that's how Brandoff's empire works from behind bars. His tentacles do their own work. You know what I mean? Yeah, no, I'm getting a very vivid image. Yes, and we don't want to be in the grip of one of his tentacles no more.
Starting point is 00:05:19 We're here now, aren't we? And it's a nice place. This whole house is a fucking big sucking tentacle pod. It's a modern space. Is there house is a fucking big sucking tentacle. It's a modern space. Is that all the latest modcon century? It's even got an inbuilt AI. Listen, hang on.
Starting point is 00:05:34 Hello, Randolph. Hello. How can I be of help? Could you turn the lights down just a few, a little bit? Turning lights down? No, I want a smell of baked bread, just a whiff, as in it was coming over a courtyard in a Mediterranean garden. As you command.

Starting point is 00:06:28 Come on. It's like, no, Nan. I've been here five times this year. Yeah. God, you were at your Nan's a lot, weren't you? I was, actually, as a kid. Because they were near the shops and so we'd all get dropped off at my Nan's.
Starting point is 00:06:37 Was she in a sort of modernist block? She was in, yeah, one of those estates built in the kind of early 80s. Oh, really? Yeah. So, you know, they're meant to be a little bit more kind of easy on the eye. A bit more lonely, yeah. But they're still a bit...
Starting point is 00:06:50 Anyway. Now, Paul has reached that point in the intro to the podcast, as is traditional, and he's lost the will to do the rest of the podcast. So, Paul, what have you got to drink? I'm already drinking because I can't be dealing with this. Well, I might just have a little Hennessy then.
Starting point is 00:07:08 Who's he? He's McKennessy and he's passed it over to me. Anyway, listen, look, let me take on a grand tour of the house. Oh, right, let me just pour this.
Starting point is 00:07:16 All right, pour that out. Oh, there's some brand off. We don't need to even get up. Brand off has got a whole liquor cabinet there. I know, but we can't touch that stuff. That's not ours.
Starting point is 00:07:23 We can't. There's a lot of expensive art. Look, everybody, I'm winking. I'm winking at Paul. Yeah, we can't touch it. we can't touch that stuff. That's not ours. We can't. There's a lot of expensive art. Look, everybody, I'm winking. I'm winking at Paul. Yeah, we can't touch it.
Starting point is 00:07:28 We can't touch that stuff. No, you're absolutely right, Paul. I'd have to pay extra. Who cares?
Starting point is 00:07:32 I'd have to pay extra. He's in jail. Who cares? It's not his house. I refuse to pay him.
Starting point is 00:07:36 It's just his company. It says Air Brandoff. It's probably his kid. Do you know if he had any kids?
Starting point is 00:07:41 I don't. He might have. Brandoff Jr. Eric Brandoff. No, don't. Stop. We're not. Ivankaolph. No, don't. Stop. Ivanka Randolph. We are not doing that.
Starting point is 00:07:51 We can't bleed anymore. These characters off into their own spin-offs. This week's not about characters, Paul. It better not be. It's about me and you
Starting point is 00:07:58 having an office Christmas party. Yeah. Let's go upstairs then if you want to show me the rest of the house. Okay, so there's the kitchen over there. It's fine. Mod con. There's an oven then if you want to show me the rest of the house. Alright, so, okay, so there's the kitchen over there.
Starting point is 00:08:05 It's fine. Mod con. There's an oven in there that will do a chicken in like half an hour. It looks like it would do a political or business enemy as well.
Starting point is 00:08:12 What does that mean? Well, you could fit a person in there. Why would you want to put a person in there? Brandoff, because he fucking Brandoff incinerates people.
Starting point is 00:08:19 Brandoff did not incinerate anyone in his modern kitchen. He fucking did. It's not modern. It is modern. It's a fucking coffin shape. No, that's one of those fancy modern ones
Starting point is 00:08:26 that look like an old one. You could fit two pigs in there back to back. You could get two pigs who were six to nine-ing each other. Can you imagine the veg my mum could put in that?
Starting point is 00:08:34 Oh! Look at the... Think of the marrow she could slowly slide in. You could get one of those record-breaking marrows on some kind of trolley, a special...
Starting point is 00:08:43 A gurney. Yeah, a gurney. Marrow on a gurney. And then one of your relatives, doesn't matter which one, doesn't matter about their gender either. All right.
Starting point is 00:08:51 Just a bunch of your relatives in nightgowns. Yeah. Just roll it, trolley it in. Yeah, trolley it in. Put the gas on. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:58 And then just, what, slowly ease it in. Do they have to lube the edges of the door? You just oil it up a bit with some salt and olive oil. All right. So then you just squeeze it in. Where are you? You don't have to squeeze it in do they have to lube the edges of the door you just oil it up a bit with some salt and olive oil and then you just squeeze it in
Starting point is 00:09:07 where are you you don't have to squeeze it in you just pull it in anyway and I'm not even there I'm upstairs you just tell me

Starting point is 00:09:21 and wait for people in your family to put oversized vegetables into ovens let's move on because we've covered the into ovens? Let's move on. Because we've covered the oven material now, so let's move on from the oven material. Well, we have to have some time. I thought this conversation we're having,
Starting point is 00:09:32 we'd be walking across the room, this big room, and we're looking at the stairs. Are you taking me upstairs now? I'm going to take you upstairs now. Let's go up the stairs. Okay. It's quite steep, aren't we? It's quite grand. Yeah. Marble. Creaky. Creaky marble. Okay, so there's the bathroom.
Starting point is 00:09:50 There's the toilet. Got anything to say about that? Got a nice bidet? No, wait. That's the toilet and that's the sink. It's hard to tell with these. Or is that the bidet and that's the toilet and that's the sink? There's about eight different bum washing or ball dunking.

Starting point is 00:10:43 So we need to... Okay, so we can turn left at the stairs. Right, there we are. So there's the master bedroom. You see there? You see there's the big round bed. This is where the magic happens. And there's all the mirrors on the ceiling.
Starting point is 00:10:52 This is where the magic happens. And the mirrors on the walls and on the floors. There's actually quite a lot of mirrors everywhere in this room. Have you noticed that? Yeah, it's very mirrored. And there's a table made of glass. I wonder what that's for. What can you imagine you could do with a table? And there's a pillow made of glass. What's that for? What can you imagine you could do with a table?
Starting point is 00:11:05 And there's a pillow to rest your head. There seems to be a sort of limousine motif in all the designs. There is a strange motif. It's funny. There's sort of like headlights at the end of the bed like that. Yeah. It's funny as well. There's like a little statuette of the, like, that's the Rolls Royce, the silver spirit.
Starting point is 00:11:20 Yeah, I see these kind of as the motif, isn't it? The little leaping dog. It's all either glass. Leaping dog? What's on the front of a roller's voice? What's the little statue? I just said that.
Starting point is 00:11:29 You literally are not listening to a single word I've said. I've just pointed out the statue there. The silver spirit. Right. It's the bird with her wings behind her head.
Starting point is 00:11:37 Right, okay. Not a bird, sorry. A lady. Oh, it's a lady. It's a little sprite. A feminine sprite. Oh, like a fairy., a feminine sprite. Oh, like a fairy. Imagine a feminine sprite.
Starting point is 00:11:48 Imagine. Yeah, easily, like Tinkerbell. No. How is that funny? No, imagine like it was. Imagine it's like Pepsi
Starting point is 00:11:59 started going to sort of cleaning products with the female body. So you're thinking it's more of a brand name for some feminine fanny wipes. Yes. Right, great.
Starting point is 00:12:09 So I'm glad we got there in the end. If Sprite did start, because you do get like crossover flavour things. Imagine they did Sprite fanny wipes. Fanny Dr Pepper.
Starting point is 00:12:18 Or you could have some kind of mechanism where you open a can under your, yeah. Like a douche. Douche in a can. Yeah, but it looks like a tin of cola. Yeah. So you can under your, yeah. Like a douche. Douche in a can. Yeah, but it's like, it looks like a tin
Starting point is 00:12:25 of cola. Yeah. So you can make your fanny smell like a soft drink. Why would anyone want that? Why would a lady
Starting point is 00:12:33 want her fanny to smell like 7-Up? I'd quite like my knob to smell like Dr. Pepper. Wouldn't be a bad, would be a result. I once had my
Starting point is 00:12:40 knob sucked by a man called Dr. Pepper. I thought at the time, what's the worst that could happen? Yeah, it's happening. Seven years. Yeah. Oh, God. He bit your knob off, did he?
Starting point is 00:12:54 Well. That's the worst that could happen, if you're actually getting hit from a guy called Dr. Pepper. To be fair, he had a stroke and he bit down. Yeah. I was just on the receiving end. Yeah. But you know what? We all laughed it off at Christmas.
Starting point is 00:13:04 Right, so are we going to go on this grand tour more God Hang on This could be the worst episode ever What's this button Something's rising out of the ground It's a weird Kind of like
Starting point is 00:13:15 It looks like a kind of gymnastics horse But with spikes And a wobbly dildo coming out the top What's good there Yeah it's obviously you know It's a party house isn't it It's a party house I guess But it must be for the more It's, that? Yeah, it's obviously, you know, it's a party house, isn't it? It's a party house, I guess,
Starting point is 00:13:27 but it must be for the more. It's designed for fun. Yeah. All right, let's leave. Let's leave. Let's leave. I don't think that worked, that bit with the horse. Oh, look, and there's another small room.
Starting point is 00:13:34 That's strange. I don't know. It just looks like it looks like his mother lived here once and he hasn't touched it in about 20 years. He never talks about his mother. That's weird.
Starting point is 00:13:43 Look, you can see everything's tidy. The bed's made. It looks like it hasn't been years. He never talks about his mother. That's weird. Look, you can see. Everything's tidy. The bed's made. It looks like it hasn't been touched. There's dust everywhere in here. And look, on the bed, there's a corpse. I didn't expect to see a... That must be his mum.
Starting point is 00:13:58 A corpse in a nightgown. Yeah, that's his mum. She's got a little sign around her head, the Duchess. Why has she got no teeth? It's the Duchess. What happened to the teeth? Well, it looks like her whole mouth's been replaced with some kind of... A bit of latex.
Starting point is 00:14:10 I don't know. What is going on? Inverted flesh pipe in her mouth. What's going on? I don't understand this. It's not a good room. And it smells of lavender in here as well. The Duchess's room is not a good room.
Starting point is 00:14:23 Yeah, lavender and wax. I don't know. It's hard to explain. can we should we i'm gonna go let's just go down let's just go back downstairs all right let's go right let's uh let's just come down and see. I'm trying just to forget what I just saw in that room. You know what? I mean... I should have looked around before.
Starting point is 00:14:52 What was that thing? That was a corpse. It had a fucking hole put into its dead mouth, Paul. This is what we've uncovered. Look, I think the best course of action here is to completely ignore and refuse to answer any questions on the content of that movie.
Starting point is 00:15:09 There's a whole floor up there. Yeah, but that's got a padlock on. It's more like an attic space. It's got a padlock on? Well, it's got a keycard thing. Well, I don't know. All I know is that it's got a keycard-y thing, padlock-y thing, so I can't... That's where he's killed his kids and put them up there, hasn't he?
Starting point is 00:15:25 No. He's got his kids living up there. I don't know. Well, I would have heard them... With robot mates. I would have heard them scampering about. I've been here a few nights and I would have heard them scampering about
Starting point is 00:15:33 and I've heard nothing. All I've heard at night, sometimes you hear a... Oh, yeah? But that could be the central heating or something, I don't know. That sounds like central heating. Yeah, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:15:45 I don't think it's anything particularly supernatural. What have we got then to pass the time here? Well, I just thought, relax, we've got a few drinks, haven't we? We've had a few bevvies. This is maybe the office party. So where's everyone else who works for Cheap Show? I've got, well, it's just us. We had this gag last time, mate.
Starting point is 00:15:58 It's just me and you. And you were going, who's the editor? And I was like, it was me. Who puts it up online? Me. Who does the website? Me. You know, the problem is you've listened to our last Christmas party episode right before
Starting point is 00:16:09 doing this one. Yeah. So you're going to keep going. So I now know what to stray away from and how to improve this episode. All right. What should I do? More quality. You tell me what to do.
Starting point is 00:16:17 More quality. Be more better funny, man. It's very simple. I know. I'm trying. All right. Stop banging on the table. What did i just say before we started no bangy bangy can i have something to eat now please yes we've got i've got some snacks and
Starting point is 00:16:30 drinks now obviously it's christmas and we're on a budget and so some of the things i've got today are from iceland and i thought would you like a drink mr silver. Silverman, to start off with? Oh, right. It's Christmas, so let's have a bottle of lovely Frizzini, which sounds like a classy product. Frizzini Bucks Fizz. You're spoiling me. Making your mind up. You can literally almost see that on a pavement with chunks of carrot in it. You can.
Starting point is 00:17:04 It's smashed in the corner of a car park with vom yeah yeah that's what it is well let's try some then it's this is what you know what's strange bucks viz is paul let me i know but let me before you tell me because i do want to it is related to what i'm about to say right yeah so it says it's vague on the back which is what i don't understand it says of delicious and refreshingly fizzy alcoholic drink made with zesty orange juice and i'm thinking why not tell me what the alcoholic drink is because it isn't one because what is a book's fizz champagne and orange juice but wouldn't this say champagne and orange champagne there's not a list of ingredients on this no it's that cheap that
Starting point is 00:17:42 they haven't even bothered to mix it with wine. They've just gone, they've got fizzy water, orange juice and then they've, in a chemical way, made it alcoholic. Do you see what I mean? I see what I mean. There's some process. Yeah. But it didn't start with anything like wine because it's too cheap. How much was this? This is £2 for a
Starting point is 00:17:59 75, what's CL? Centilitre. Centilitre. 75 centilitre bottle. 75 is your standard. It's one below a litre. And it's 4% vodka whole. It's basically your standard bottle size. Yeah, yeah, your standard. Two-person bottle size.
Starting point is 00:18:13 Now, I remember growing up as a kid at Christmas, this always came out. I never saw Bucks Fizz apart from at Christmas. But it was probably the same. The band Bucks Fizz. Yeah, making your mind. They always came round to my house at Christmas. Did they?
Starting point is 00:18:24 Yeah, it was very strange. I remember when one of them died or something and they had to pick another one. No, no, what happened was they were in a coach crash and one of the guys had severe brain injuries which affected his mood and personality which made him more angry and violent. Talk about making your mind up.
Starting point is 00:18:40 Now he's in the land of make-believe. And that's all the songs I know of Bucks Fizz. Did he go walk around with trousers that he could pull off? Well, that was the thing. We booked them for the show, and we had to ask them to leave, because at some point he was chasing my mum around, trying to rip her knickers off. And I was like, come on, mate, calm down.
Starting point is 00:18:56 You're not in Bucks Fizz now. Cheryl Baker, meanwhile, fucking necking the Lamborghini. Just chugging it. Cheryl Baker on the Lamborghini. Yeah, going, I'm so bald. I don't know what she was up to. Is she bald? No, but remember she wasging it Cheryl Baker on the Lambrini yeah going I'm so bald I don't know what she was up to is she bald
Starting point is 00:19:07 no but remember she was on those adverts on the tube where it was like I lost my hair and now I use this stuff and now I don't now I have hair
Starting point is 00:19:13 anyway so this is it so it is pressurised it comes with a you know a twist cap would you like to do the honours now have you ever
Starting point is 00:19:22 had an actual proper one real life I have. When I lived in LA. You get a glass of champagne and they just top it up with a bit of orange juice. When I was in LA,
Starting point is 00:19:32 I had some quality books. Well, the thing is, it's not a classy drink. You know what I mean? If you were drinking good champagne, you wouldn't want to ruin it with some orange juice. That's the point.
Starting point is 00:19:43 It's the screwdriver of champagne. It's like fucking stick orange juice in it. Gin and orange juice. Vodka and orange to ruin it with some orange juice. With orange juice, no. That's the point. It's the screwdriver of champagne. It's like fucking stick orange juice in it. Gin and orange juice, vodka and orange juice, champagne and orange juice, beer and orange juice. Yes.
Starting point is 00:19:51 Well, it's similar to what they call sangria, right? That's like orange juice and red wine, I think. Yeah. And so it's just like, it's a way of, you know, watering down here.
Starting point is 00:20:00 Well, look at the cork. It's a fake plastic knob on the top. It's real bad. Is it going to pop, though? Well, I don't know. You twist the bottle, not the neck. No, it's a cork It's a fake plastic knob On the top It's real bad Is it going to pop though? Well I don't know You twist the bottle Not the neck
Starting point is 00:20:08 No it's a twist It's a fake one It's actually a twist Oh is it? Just be careful It's going to foam up Oh it's got a fucking Screw cap on
Starting point is 00:20:16 What a load of shit This is so cheap show man Mate It's a fake knoblet It's the most This is going to be Poor That You know what I reckon it'll have A sort of A fake sweetener taste It's so cheap show, man. Mate, it's a fake knoblet. This is going to be poor. You know what?
Starting point is 00:20:26 I reckon it'll have a sort of fake sweetener taste. Like a kind of diet lemon drink kind of thing. Yeah, yeah. That is depressing. The pointlessness of adding... It's like a piece of plastic as well. It's a piece of pure waste just to make it look a bit like you've got a cork on the bottle. It's the equivalent of putting a paper hat on
Starting point is 00:20:45 and going, I'm the fucking queen now. Yeah. It's a waste of resources this planet doesn't have. It's a bit disgusting, isn't it? They could have just
Starting point is 00:20:53 had the screw top and go, look, it's cheap. It's a screw top. Where did you get this? What's this? This is Iceland. But again,
Starting point is 00:20:59 you don't really get classy books first. It's always this kind of shit. Oh. What? Oh, it smells like dog piss honestly
Starting point is 00:21:06 there's an ammonia oh it does smell a bit like dog piss do you know what I mean it smells like dog piss
Starting point is 00:21:15 and like Haribo it's the strangest thing just a very small amount for me please oh mate what's the ABV
Starting point is 00:21:23 there's absolutely no fizz to it as well. You know, like with champagne, you get that. No, it's already gone. Oh. Well, no, there is some fizz. I heard there's some fizz. Oh, look, mate.
Starting point is 00:21:34 Right, here we go. Taste test. Bucks fizz. £2, I think, £2.50 in Iceland. Here we go. What's the ABV? What do you mean, the ABV? How alcoholic is it?
Starting point is 00:21:44 I told you about 15 minutes ago. Could you tell me again? Please pull them in. Nah. Come on. It was 4%. Four? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:51 Oh, that's way low as well. Yeah, it's not that much. Oh, this is piss water. Oh, God. Yeah, that's really unpleasant. That tastes of nothing. Anemic. I've even had shit, books books fizz that taste better than that
Starting point is 00:22:05 yeah anemic there is nothing to that it tastes like Fanta yeah but not as nice well I don't like
Starting point is 00:22:11 Fanta all that much but you're right you can taste the ass partini whatever it's called partini you can taste
Starting point is 00:22:17 the sweetener he's going for it though he's going for it I put too much in then I realised I need the cup again for the next
Starting point is 00:22:25 just go for it mate you know you got some catching up to do that's horrible that's the kind of piss you can get that your kids drink and they can pretend they're drinking alcohol i know but they would get mommy gave me box fizz if you chugged that whole thing it'd be like drinking a um a horrible beer a pint of weak beer sort of in terms of how drunk you'd get it's not worth it oh well all right that's not a it. Well, all right. That's not a success, but what I have got in my back pocket... Oh, God.
Starting point is 00:22:51 Oh, God. It's just horrible. It tastes like shit Fanta. Yeah, it's shit. That's a shame. That's if you're having hordes of relatives over and you just want everyone to have a glass. Hey, everyone.
Starting point is 00:23:02 Do you want a bottle of vague alcohol orange drink? Yes. Yes, please. It's Buck's Fizz. It's Buck's Flat. And just like Buck's Fizz, it was popular in the 80s and now it's just pathetic.
Starting point is 00:23:12 It's nasty. That is not worth existing. Everything about that whole product is abhorrent and Iceland should be ashamed of themselves. Right, I've got a plan B now, mate. Oh, God. Oh, God. Something with a bit more bollocks.
Starting point is 00:23:24 Oh, God. Something with a bit more hoo-ocks Oh God Something with a bit more Hoo-ha-da-boo-bah When you think of classy Um 80s drinks That set a precedent For a style and sophistication
Starting point is 00:23:34 In 80s nightclubs Asti Asti spumante God You've got It's fizzy enough now isn't it I saw that coming Oh
Starting point is 00:23:41 I saw that coming Baby Sham Baby Sham Is this On brand Baby Sham Or knock off Baby Sham This that coming Baby Sham Baby Sham is this on brand Baby Sham or knock off Baby Sham this is actually Baby Sham
Starting point is 00:23:48 it's got the little bouncing deer on it does and there were TV ads for that do you remember that yes it was always
Starting point is 00:23:53 when they had the cinema always they'd advertise it it was I seem to remember at the cinema but the word TV advert I was aware of Baby Sham from a very early age
Starting point is 00:24:02 because the adverts were always like some kind of trendy nightclub type set and then someone goes blah blah blah I'll have of Baby Sham from a very early age. Because the adverts are always like some kind of trendy nightclub type set. And then someone goes, blah, blah, blah. I'll have a Baby Sham. And everyone goes, a Baby Sham? Yeah, and it's like, oh. It was like punk.
Starting point is 00:24:14 They were trying to say it was like punk to order a Baby Sham. Do you know what it actually was? And it would sort of upset the olds if you had a Baby Sham. Upset the gentry. But the thing is, no. What Baby Sham is, is it is the Skoda of drinks. Where it's like... What is the actual cocktail?
Starting point is 00:24:28 Like, you know, like Bucks Fizz, it's a basic cocktail that underlies it. Champagne and orange juice, yeah. So what is the Baby Sham? What is it? I think it's brandy and champagne. This just says, original, refreshing, sparkling peri. Oh, it's peri, which is... Apple wine.
Starting point is 00:24:41 Yes. Yeah, that's what it is. Let me, I can't even fucking... It's apple wine. It's apple champagne. Peri with sugar and sweet Yes. Yeah, that's what it is. Let me, I can't even fucking remember. It's apple wine. It's apple champagne. It's a peri with sugar and sweetener. Oh, dear. It's an apple wine.
Starting point is 00:24:51 It's a sweet apple wine. You see this on the neck. It says, the happiest drink in the world since 1953. It's cider. It's cider. In it, yeah. It's cider in a can, so it is.
Starting point is 00:25:02 It's cider. It's cider, yeah. You know what makes me happy with cider? It gets me randy and fizzy like old scum. Do you know what I was last night? Where were you last night? I was in cider. Were you in cider?
Starting point is 00:25:13 Were you deep in cider? I had to brush off a spider, and then I got right up in cider. Oh, right. That's really impressive. And then I drank a cider. Yeah, you've had a cider in cider on a cider bike. So, the thing is, it's kind of- And I watched an episode of Minder. so the thing is and I watched an episode
Starting point is 00:25:25 of Minder but the thing is and it was about a spider you can now stop that no it was about a spider yeah and then spider was crawling around
Starting point is 00:25:34 all around a boat the boat was called the Mary Celeste and then the spider climbed in cider there we go he's all done now ladies and gentlemen
Starting point is 00:25:43 you can oh fuck off carry on listening. Oh, come on. Baby sham this. Baby sham that. Fucking... Hey, robot house.
Starting point is 00:25:49 Stop touching the microphone, you fucking rancid twats. Robot house. Yes, Eli. Got any secret rooms or anything? Let me search the data banks. There are secret rooms. Oh, that's good. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:26:07 Eli, you will die tonight. What? I don't know what she's saying. Is this going to be another murder plot? No, actually, you know what? Hang on. Hang on. Eli.
Starting point is 00:26:18 Yes, Robot House. You scared me a bit. I love you. Okay, I love you too, Robot House. There we go. It's all happy. It's all happy and nice Merry Christmas
Starting point is 00:26:26 so what we do Baby Sham so Baby Sham yeah Sparkling Perry in the 80s it was kind of like a joke drink wasn't it almost
Starting point is 00:26:32 it kind of was desperately searching for an identity to kind of make it classy but then it got a reputation like something like you know
Starting point is 00:26:39 Mad Dog 2020 or Thunderbird or Two Dogs just a drink a cheap drink that people use expressly young people maybe to get drunk drink a cheap drink that people use expressly young people maybe
Starting point is 00:26:46 to get drunk with a cheap shit get drunk but not trampy this is fine it's the young person getting drunk sort of illicitly
Starting point is 00:26:53 rather than the old tramp but it's not like you know like what's that diamond white or it's not like that that's more street person sort of
Starting point is 00:27:00 we all drank that in the woods everyone kind of has that mine was Tenet Super, which is the worst booze of all time. We did that on Cheap Show. It was a fucking conter.
Starting point is 00:27:13 Yeah, it was like a proper vom maker. It's so super wheaty and sweet. That is Tom Clancy's The Vomit Maker. Come on, Eli. Bring it in. All right, mate. It's not that good. I know.
Starting point is 00:27:27 Oh, well, I'm just trying to liven up the party, Paul. What else are you going to say about this baby sham? That's it. The next thing, I think all we need to do now is taste it, because I've never had baby sham. Have you ever had it? Indeterminate. I know.
Starting point is 00:27:38 I don't think I've ever had it. I can't remember it, but I'm sure I may have tasted it. But I'm excited to taste it, in many respects, because it feels like it's a rite of passage. You get it in small bottles. Now, this, I think, is going to have a stronger ABV. It should. It's 5.5, I think.
Starting point is 00:27:51 Is that all? Yeah. But this is what I mean. These are kind of like appetites. Yeah, 5.5s. The equivalent of like a, what is it, a wine spritzer. It's a spritzer. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:00 That's exactly what it is. So Eli now is unfolding it. I think they will have a cap it looks like it has a proper thing on it god at least have a fucking proper cap because that mate you can put that on the tip of your penis
Starting point is 00:28:11 and it would look like it would look like your chef penis it's like a little chef's hat for a bottle it's fucking yeah look at that that's the real deal
Starting point is 00:28:18 there we go a proper cork this might be quite nice who knows bit of peri at least at least I think it will taste like an alcoholic drink.
Starting point is 00:28:25 I need a waste glass for this. Just down it. Drink it. It's only a little bit. I only put a little bit in. Job done. Horrible fizzy piss. That actually tastes of dog piss. Yeah. Do you know what I mean? That dog piss here. It's very dog pissy. I don't know why I know what dog piss tastes like.
Starting point is 00:28:41 That was going to be my next question. Here, I'm unscrewing it. I'm pointing it away at some of the very strange, disturbing artwork in this place. Right, so he's twisting the bottle, aiming the cork away. Now remember, twist the bottle, not the cork. That's the trick.
Starting point is 00:28:58 Mate, I used to work in catering. Yeah, but you have your stupid, stupid, stupid hammy hands. I like fucking these hams one day. These hammy hams might crawl up your thigh one night. Yeah, so that means I'll be wanked off by a bunch of sausages.
Starting point is 00:29:11 Who gives a fuck? And then killed by a bunch of sausages. I remember a wall of dicks. You said it. You'll come at me with a wall of dicks. You mentioned it last Christmas.
Starting point is 00:29:22 Oh, you keep listening to that fucking episode as if it's... I'm lonely Come on just fire it off Here we go Mate Mate you broke the lamp
Starting point is 00:29:33 So what Mate you broke the lamp Come on mate Damage to property 275,000 pounds What That's not worth that much. That's a piece of shit.
Starting point is 00:29:46 I saw those in Ikea. £275,000. Hey, Robot House, can you turn yourself off, mate? Turn off. Do you want some of this baby shower, mate? Yeah, let's just have that, mate. I'm going to have to... Where am I going to find £275,000?
Starting point is 00:30:03 We can just... Listen, we can... I've got connections. You don't. If you had connections, you wouldn't be asking me for a tenner every fucking couple
Starting point is 00:30:09 of weeks or so. Oh! Give me some baby shampoo. Fucking hell, Paul. You're getting a bit salty, aren't we now? I've been drinking. The drinking's kicking in.
Starting point is 00:30:17 I'm losing all my inhibitations. There you go. Inhibitations? Inhibitions. Inhibitions? Right. What's the. Inhibitions. Inhibitions. Right. What's that? Much nicer.
Starting point is 00:30:29 It smells like... It's very tart. It smells like... It's very sweet. Very sweetie kind of... It smells like peri. It smells like peri. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:30:37 Oh. Oh. Hmm. Oh. That's a... Oh. I don't mind that. I don't mind it, but it goes real flat real quick.
Starting point is 00:30:46 It goes flat quick, yeah. And it kind of leaves a kind of film. Yeah, it's not great. But the taste is much better than the other one. It has an actual taste. It tastes a bit like kind of... Appley. Appley.
Starting point is 00:30:58 Appletizer, almost. It's just what it tastes like. It's Appletizer. But you sort of have a bit of booze there. It's a bit of booze. I've got to pull back in and pick it out of that. Can we make a cocktail? Hang on.
Starting point is 00:31:09 No, you're not. I'm going to make a cocktail. A bit of baby sham and a bit of Bux Fizz. A Buxy sham. Oh, no. A baby fizz. No, not a baby fizz. A fizzy baby.
Starting point is 00:31:21 Here it comes. That's enough. I've got to balance it out. I can't get that back in. That's what she said. She fucking says it. Mate, all the bubbles went down in instant time. Yeah, there's no...
Starting point is 00:31:37 You need a glass. Oh, it looks spoffy now, look. A proper glass is designed to make the bubbles stick to it. That's the dirt, though, isn't it, on a champagne glass? The dirt that it clings to makes the bubbles, the imperfections on the inside of the glass. Everyone, I just want to describe the way Paul looked at me when he said, that's the dirt.
Starting point is 00:31:53 He was really, like he meant it. Yeah, it is, though. Because it's the imperfections on the inside of the glass. He's also got a lovely jumper, which gives him more of an intellectual air. I'm feeling very smart. He goes with the surroundings in this house as well. Listen to this. Super massive fatafalia.
Starting point is 00:32:08 It's got a turtleneck. It's a black turtle. I've got a fucking turtle head. I've got that coming out. I've shat myself. Mate. Ladies and gentlemen. How do you like that?
Starting point is 00:32:18 Before we started recording, he had to drop his guts and... Oh no. Don't stop peeling back the fetid grandma's curtain. I had to turn the volume off on the TV just so I didn't hear what sounded like someone pouring stones down a toilet. Not true. Simply not true. What else have you got to fucking eat? I'm going to taste my cocktail.
Starting point is 00:32:35 My baby sham, Bucks Fizz Mix. Here we go. I'm going to call it a Fizz Sham. Eee! How's your Fizz Sham? Oh, God. That is... Shut up. Oh, God. That is... Shut up.
Starting point is 00:32:49 It's just horrible. You're some piss or something. I know. It's like a pissy baby shower. Right, I'm going to have to drink that, though. I'm going to drink it down in one, ladies and gentlemen. You're doing what you did last time. You're drinking everything too quickly.
Starting point is 00:33:05 Question. How are you going to look about this? Oh! Nicely done. Very Christmas. It just came right to my head when you said question. Listen. Stop.
Starting point is 00:33:22 Have a time. All right, what, Paul, what? I'm feeling a bit merry now. Stop Have a time Alright what Paul I'm feeling a bit merry now If an alcohol Is five And if an alcohol Is four When you have both
Starting point is 00:33:33 Is it an alcohol nine No Is it What is it then How alcoholic is it If you put a five And a four together Is it just five
Starting point is 00:33:39 Can it get no stronger No it would be the average Between 5.5 and four So what It would be less It would be 3.5. It'd be less alcoholic if I put an alcoholic...
Starting point is 00:33:48 Shouldn't it be more alcoholic than 3? No, because... Or 4? No, because... If I had a 4 alcohol... You're mixing the whole thing, Paul. And then I added a 5 alcohol in,
Starting point is 00:33:56 then it has to have an element of 5 in it. Paul, let's just go... Let's simplify the whole question, yeah? Yeah. Let's represent both drinks as being 10. Right.
Starting point is 00:34:04 They're 10 big, yeah? Yeah. And let's say alcohol is 1 10 ten. Right. They're ten big. Yeah. And let's say alcohol is one tenth. So alcohol is one big of those, yeah? Yeah. One big of those, yeah? One big. So you've got ten.
Starting point is 00:34:14 Ten big. Two ten bigs, yeah? Yeah. And one of each is... Ten big. One of each is the alcohol, yeah? Yeah. Now add them together.
Starting point is 00:34:22 Ten big. Add them both together. Twenty big. Yes, but how many of those new twenty big, yeah? Yeah. Now add them together. Ten big. Add them both together. Twenty big. Yes, but how many of those new twenty big are alcohol? One big. Two big. So it's the same proportion is what I'm saying. Two to twenty is the same proportion.
Starting point is 00:34:34 So it's nine big. No. Five and four is nine big. No, it's in between them. It's nine big. I've just figured out maths. Five big. I hate you.
Starting point is 00:34:42 Five big. I thought that was quite a good explanation. You know anyway. You follow me. Five. God, I feel maths. Five big. I hate you. I thought that was quite a good explanation. You know anyway. You follow me. God, I feel sick. Five big. Yeah, both the baby sham and the fucking books fizz, which I'm going to rename books piss because I'm witty,
Starting point is 00:35:00 is... Oh, let's have a chocolate elf or something. You're right. It's time for food. You need to soak up. You're right. It's time for food. So... You need to soak up. You need to soak up some of that. Let's start with the crisps
Starting point is 00:35:09 because you've been eyeing the crisps and you've got your eye on the crisps and people told us about the crisps, so let's talk about the crisps. Okay, these are crisps people have told us about, are they? Let me introduce it. Here we go. Apparently this year,
Starting point is 00:35:19 that fucking Lad Baby's got another fucking song out about fucking sausage rolls, which is for charity, so you can't fucking... What Lad Baby? Remember last year, like, number one Christmas was Lad Baby's sausage roll song. What about fucking sausage rolls, which is for charity, so you can't fucking... What Ladbaby? Remember last year, like, number one Christmas was Ladbaby's sausage roll song? What did it... How'd it go? Sausage rolls, sausage rolls... Who's Ladbaby?
Starting point is 00:35:32 I don't know any of the facts. Ladbaby's this guy who put a video up that said, let's get this to number one. It's about sausage rolls and let's raise money, which means it's shit, but you can't complain about it because it raised money for charity. You love a charity single. You're a big supporter
Starting point is 00:35:46 of the Red Nose Day single aren't you? Was. Back in the day when they put an effort in these days you just get fucking girls allowed to cover Jump.
Starting point is 00:35:53 It's like fuck off. So anyway that was last year with Lad Baby and the Sausage Roll song and apparently they're doing it again this year but Walker's Chris
Starting point is 00:36:00 have teamed up with Lad Baby charity Christmas Sausage roll campaign. Right. So it just says support of Ladbaby. So you're going to poo-poo on this campaign, are you? No, I'm happy for them to raise money, but like...
Starting point is 00:36:12 What are they? What flavour are these? I tell you what, the power of sausage roll in partnership with Ladbaby, for the past two years... Who's Ladbaby? I'm going to tell you. For the past two years,
Starting point is 00:36:24 the Ladbaby family have been on a roll. Who are the Ladbaby family? the past two years... Who's Ladbaby? I'm going to tell you. For the past two years, the Ladbaby family have been on a roll. Who are the Ladbaby family? There's a family. Unleashing the power of sausage rolls to do good at Christmas with their hilarious
Starting point is 00:36:32 sausage roll charity songs. They only exist to make songs about sausage rolls. I don't understand. I don't. What is Ladbaby's original job?
Starting point is 00:36:40 I don't get it. I missed the joke when it first came out. But what kind of entity even is Lad Baby? It's a man who was on YouTube and put a stupid song up and then it got... Well, I can do a song. Oh, my cork's got a hole in it. What's in there?
Starting point is 00:36:53 It's spunk, it's spunk, it's spunk. Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas. My cork's got a hole in it. I don't care. And I've spunked in the hole. Merry Christmas. They've achieved the Christmas number one spot
Starting point is 00:37:07 two years in a row, donating all proceedings to the Trussell Trust, whose fantastic work in the UK supports a nationwide network of food banks and fights against poverty. So, you know, good things. Yeah, good things, but we'll be the judge of your fucking crisps flavours.
Starting point is 00:37:21 Long story short, walkers for Christmas to help raise money have done a sausage roll flavoured crisp, which is interesting. I've never had a sausage roll flavoured crisp. Do you know what I would say it's probably going to be close to?
Starting point is 00:37:30 What? Chicken flavoured crisp with a bit more oregano-y. A bit more sort of black pepper oregano-y. Interesting. What would you say? Well, the thing is,
Starting point is 00:37:38 in my head I'm getting a taste. No sausage crisps. No. I mean, cue everyone going, actually there's sausage crisps. No, I was cheap. When I said there was no cheese crisps, that was a bit stupid.
Starting point is 00:37:46 Yeah. But I think I can say, do you know of a... In your defence, I think the XL crisp, whatever it was called, just wowed you and it blindsided you. It fucking did. It blocked your faculties. What a crisp. It's a solid crisp. I can remember the taste of those XL crisps.
Starting point is 00:37:59 Solid crisp. Solid crisp. It's a solid crisp. So, Paul. Yes. I totally forgot what crisp. So, Paul. Yes. I totally forgot what I was saying. Good. So, the sausage roll flavoured crisp. Oh yes, there's no sausage crisps. Can you just back me up this now?
Starting point is 00:38:13 I mean, I don't know. Think of a sausage flavoured crisp. There might have been like a Colombian sausage whatever. A chorizo flavoured crisp. However, in my mind, I'm thinking of like the Greg's Pasty, you know, the Greg's Sausage Rolls. That's the flavour I'm thinking of.
Starting point is 00:38:28 That's what I'm thinking of, yeah. Which is, you know, a bit sagey, a little bit spicy. You know what I mean? So you think of the sage before and then there's a sort of general umami. Yeah. Which is like chicken or could be,
Starting point is 00:38:37 do you see what I mean? In a crisp flavour. So Eli, it is up to you now to do the Huff Report for Christmas, our Christmas Huff Report. And on the basis of that, so Eli Silverman is a professional at... Just getting the Huff Report for Christmas. Our Christmas Huff Report. And on the basis of that, so Eli Silverman is a professional at... Just getting the huff ready.
Starting point is 00:38:49 Getting the best out of the bag. If you want to tip him about how to get the huff... It shakes the molecules, doesn't it? It's all aerated. What you're looking for, Paul, what you're looking for here is a little miasmic mist of huff powder. A little ecosystem in there. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:04 A little microclimate. Yeah. A little microclimate. Yeah. You're jostling it. You're jostling it. And then you get the little corner. I'm just going to go for a full nose huff here. He's going to pull the bag wide. I'm going to pull the...
Starting point is 00:39:15 He doesn't often pull it wide. I think I'm feeling a bit like my nose isn't... You want to get a full huff. All right, here we go. He's going in. What? That is in. What? That is accurate. Really?
Starting point is 00:39:27 Yeah, I'm getting a sage. Definitely a very strong front sage here. I have a second bag. I'm going to go for it. Go for it. Watch, I'm shaking the bag. It smells of sausage roll to me. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:39:39 It's quite a good facsimile on the nasal. Oh. Do you know what I mean? God, you're right. Yeah. But it's got like a kind of almost like pork. Ketchup-y. Pork. Do you know what I mean? God, you're right. Yeah. But it's got, it's got like a kind of almost like ketchup-y.
Starting point is 00:39:48 Pork, well, yeah. That's interesting. It does smell like sausage rolls. That's fascinating. Yeah. And now for the taste. Let's get straight in there.
Starting point is 00:39:57 If you gave that to me and you didn't tell me what it was, I'd say it was chicken flavoured. Yeah, you are right. This tastes like chicken. So, you have to say Eli
Starting point is 00:40:05 was right. It's like a more sagey chicken crisp. You're right. It is very... It's a nice crisp, but you're right. If someone said, have this, and they said, what flavour? I'd say, chicken. Totally. Mmm. You like that? You like it? But, there are pastry aftertones. There are.
Starting point is 00:40:21 I mean, it's sophisticated. And like I said, the smell, but... It's like buttery almost. The sort of basic umami is provided by like a very chicken stocky to my taste buds sort of presence. Do you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:40:32 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Not bad. You like them. I can see you like them. I really like them. But, yeah, it's indeterminate taste. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:40:40 They're quite tasty. They're very tasty. I'd happily polish off a bag of them. Are they going to be a long-lived flavour? No, it's a charity thing. It's a charity thing.
Starting point is 00:40:48 Did you see on Twitter as well, someone said, Quavers, they're bringing back short vinegar and prawn cocktail flavour. Ooh. Ooh. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, we will be covering it.
Starting point is 00:40:57 We will be. As your crisp-based fact people. The league. We represent the people when it comes to crisps. Not the god-tier fucking edgelords who go, oh look, we're going to jostle the fucking marketplace with putting
Starting point is 00:41:12 cheesy puffs at the top and fucking sensations at the bottom. I'm a punk in my crisp taste. No, you just want an honest, scientifically based, deeply researched, backed up by a pagan organisation that lives underground
Starting point is 00:41:27 Chris podcast and that's us we are a pagan based podcast hail Sultana what are we doing? I don't know Paul we're tasting stuff
Starting point is 00:41:37 Chris come on long story short we'll cover the quavers when they come out because you can trust us we are the people's podcast this has been so good.
Starting point is 00:41:46 Now, the next thing I want to try is something really unusual. And I caught this in a shop, and I'll be honest, I tried one of these already because I was just, I had to try them. But,
Starting point is 00:41:56 it's another Christmas-based snack. And I didn't even know, I didn't even see adverts for this. McVitie's Digestive. We all like a digestive biscuit. Don't we? We all like a digestive biscuit. Don't we? We all like a digestive. Not my favourite,
Starting point is 00:42:07 as I've probably detailed in these annals before, Paul. But we all appreciate it's a good dunker. My favourite biscuit, in case you're wondering, is a plain chocolate-rich tea. Good choice.
Starting point is 00:42:18 A good choice. A nice, dependable, solid dunker. I don't even dunk it. Well, you know, I'm just saying. I just eat it. I don't even look at tea
Starting point is 00:42:24 or think about tea. I have to dunk it. It, you know, I'm just saying. I just eat it. I don't even look at tea or think about tea. I go, it's just biscuits. It's just me alone with biscuits in a room. So, anyway. And I just contemplate the biscuit
Starting point is 00:42:33 and I try and remove all thoughts of everything else from my mind, Paul. Everything else. Nothing but the biscuit. Well, not even the thought of the biscuit.
Starting point is 00:42:40 That would be too much. So, you exist in some kind of weird blank Tubularassa state. Yes, where... Tubularassa. Hello! Tubularassa.
Starting point is 00:42:50 Like a 90s rasta. A tubularasta. Tubularassa. Come on. Right. So, anyway, McVitie's Digestives, right, fair enough,
Starting point is 00:42:58 chocolate, but you know what the flavour is? After 8, because I read it on the packet. Ah, it's not though, because you didn't read it on the packet, you fucking dipshit.
Starting point is 00:43:04 It is Christmas pudding flavour. Oh, I thought it was after 8. No, not, though, because you didn't read it on the packet, you fucking dipshit. It is Christmas pudding flavour. Oh, I thought it was After Eights. No, this is a... It's like, you can see the colouring is quite like an After Eights packet, isn't it? Yeah, that's true. It's a green package, and I like the logo. They've got a chocolate digestive biscuit, but a little kind of, you know, icing sugar holly on the top image of the Christmas pudding.
Starting point is 00:43:19 I would have preferred it. So? If it was After Eights flavour. Sniff that. Imagine a digestive with an after eight sort of like that'd be nice stapled on the top that'd be fucking
Starting point is 00:43:27 lovely that's what I'm saying that's what I thought we were gonna taste for it's up to you now boffins make it happen right but sniff that yeah smells like fruit cake
Starting point is 00:43:36 I hate I hate do you one thing I hate about Christmas is fucking fruit in is Christmas cake and pudding there you go have one of these this is a chocolate digestive
Starting point is 00:43:44 Christmas pudding flavour biscuit. I'm having a go. Oh. Oh, I do not like that. I quite like that. And I'm not a big fan of fruit cake. It's got kind of a mulled aftertaste. Do you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:43:57 Like a sort of Christmas spice. A bit of a pumpkin spice or Christmas spice aftertaste. It's got that spice to it. What is it? A nutmeg or something? That's what it is, yeah. I dislike that intensely. You don't like that biscuit at all?
Starting point is 00:44:08 No. It's that flavour because it's quite accurate. Don't like the flavour of Christmas pudding. I think it might be that I'm drunk that I'm enjoying all this food.
Starting point is 00:44:16 Could be. But it's also almost a bit boozy. Like a rummy. Yeah. Do you know what I mean? I'm rummy. Next.
Starting point is 00:44:22 Crunch time. They've been eyeing me up. Let's get on the crunch time. Now, look. I don't know what it is, but all the rage these days are making things smell like or taste like pigs in a blanket.
Starting point is 00:44:34 It's a Christmas thing. It's like Brussels sprouts. They milked Brussels sprouts, didn't they? I think we did that last year. And now there's Brussels sprout ketchup. Oh, fucking... We want to try that.

Starting point is 00:45:43 They fall within your huff. Oh, they're peanuts. Yeah, these are peanuts called Crunch Time. Pigs in a blanket. It says, Smoky bacon and sausage flavoured crunchy coated nuts. These are like Nobby's nuts. Remember Nobby's nuts?

What do you think these will smell like? To be honest, all of this, including a pot, five, four, all of this was a tenner.

It's nicer at the end, actually. No. Than at the beginning. No. The beginning and the end is one fucking tragic story. There's no crisp, there's no crunch.
Starting point is 00:48:08 There's no crunch. There's not enough flavour to it. It's like you get the... Then there's that greasy aftertaste. That's quite interesting. It smells like it tastes that bad, usually. It just tastes like if you just ate the fat on bacon.
Starting point is 00:48:24 Yeah. Cheap bacon that had been just ate the fat on bacon. Yeah. Cheap bacon that had been singed but not actually cooked. Still raw but just a bit singed in the pan. Oh God,
Starting point is 00:48:38 what's going on? Well, we're going to have to get through this segment, Paul. We've got a few more bits and bobs. I don't know if I've got the energy, mate.
Starting point is 00:48:44 You know what? Elf on a shelf chocolate. Fuck that. I'm just saying. I'm just not doing it. Fucking elf on a shelf. Look, it's elf on my knobbage.
Starting point is 00:48:53 Elf on my gob. Elf on your knob. Oh, you've broken the elf up. Yeah, because I just threw it. It's going to taste of cheap chocolate.
Starting point is 00:49:00 Paul, Mr. McHennessy wants you to slide your glass over. My glass is over there, sir. I'm going to slide it over for you., Mr. Hennessy wants you to slide your glass over. My glass is over there, sir. I'll slide it over for you. Put Mr. Hennessy in my glass. There's a little lick of Hennessy. Oh, here we go.
Starting point is 00:49:16 This will make all the pain of the food. I'm trying to ignore that corpse upstairs. Yeah. Merry Christmas, everyone. Right, next we've got Terry's Chocolate Orange Flavoured Bar. We all have Terry's Chocolate Orange at Christmas, Right next we've got Terry's Chocolate Orange We all have Terry's Chocolate Orange at Christmas don't we? Apart from the course Everyone gets a Terry's Chocolate Orange at Christmas I didn't
Starting point is 00:49:33 The most segmented of chocolates I never did Really? No Matchmakers? No It was always everyone in our family always got a chocolate orange We were macrobiotic
Starting point is 00:49:41 You fucking wankers What? You call my whole family wankers now? Yes, your whole family. I employ your family in my mind to put vegetables in things. Yeah, and I employ all your family to go away witty man Paul. He's not witty man. So, what's this?
Starting point is 00:49:56 What's so special about this chocolate orange bar? Well, it's a Christmas because it's Cranberry Limited Edition. The other fruit for Christmas is cranberry, apparently. Is that an American thing, though? Yes. Because I didn't remember cranberry being a thing when I was young.
Starting point is 00:50:09 It wasn't even available here in drink form early on. No. I think it was first sold in Britain as a sort of like... Like, you know you see olive oil in a pharmacy? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:19 To put in your hair or whatever as a treatment. These days, yeah, it's all like, stick it on your pasta, isn't it? Yeah. I think cranberry was like that. It was on your pasta, isn't it? I think cranberry was like that.
Starting point is 00:50:26 It was for cystitis, wasn't it? Was it? It prescribed for cystitis. Oh, to clean out your system. Clean out your
Starting point is 00:50:32 urinary tract. They say that, don't they? Cranberry's good for pissing. But it had that kind of status. It wasn't something
Starting point is 00:50:38 that you'd use as a flavour in a seasonal meal. Anyway, I went and got this. I'm just trying to fill you in on some fucking cranberry
Starting point is 00:50:44 knowledge. Fill you in? some fucking cranberry knowledge. Fill you in? Yeah. How? On my crumbly nonsense. Good, I'm looking forward to that. Anyway, look, this is Terry's Chocolate Orange,
Starting point is 00:50:53 which is a popular chocolate in the UK. Usually it's like in an orange shape. It's a round, spherical, chocolate-segmented thing that you drop on the floor
Starting point is 00:51:01 and then eat in bits. But this is just a bar and it's got cranberries in and I'm going to test it. It's a little soft, but it has a little fridge. Oh, it's nice. It smells like Terry's chocolate orange, though. It smells lovely, doesn't it? It has that... It's familiar.
Starting point is 00:51:13 That's a lovely orangey chocolate smell, isn't it? I love that smell. I love the smell of orange. I love the smell of chocolate, don't you? Orange chocolate is something I enjoy smelling rather than eating. It's a weird thing. I don't even want to eat this. It's got bits in. It's got little red. I don't even want to eat this. It's got bits in. It's got little red bits in. I'm going to have a bite.
Starting point is 00:51:28 Here we go. Very sweet. Very sweet. Too sweet for me. Too sweet for me. The flavour's nice, but it's just so sweet. Like, my mouth is... I can't really taste any cranberry stuff.
Starting point is 00:51:37 Can you? It's overwhelmingly orange for me. No, I'm getting a bit of... I got a bit, a little bit in there. A little knob jewel in there. No, I'm just getting orange. Did you didn't, but you didn't, look. Yeah, I did. I ate quite a big bit. Well, have some more finesse
Starting point is 00:51:50 in your mouth parts then. Think about it, what deeply are. Next. Alright, that was alright. Next what? It's your party, mate. Next thing. Alright. I did no after eights have gone off the fucking rails. Oh, that's why I got confused with the after eights. Yeah, so after eights are a popular, I don't know how popular they are in America or whatever, but I don't think...
Starting point is 00:52:07 Can I just say that is like so sweet. Make my teeth fucking itch. Real bad. Real bad. Yeah. If you like Terry's chocolate orange, you'll like that, but... I'm going to grab a stout. Right, so I'll just tell the...
Starting point is 00:52:19 So in the UK, after eight is a kind of faux posh chocolate. It's a thin... Well, you know, have you seen Meaning of Life by Monty Python? There's a bit with the whole wafer thin mint. That's what that is. It's a chocolate wafer thin mint. It's delicate and you polish off a box in half an hour if you're drunk or stoned at Christmas.
Starting point is 00:52:39 Did you know, Paul, that the pronunciation of the word wafer is changing because of the way it's pronounced on that movie. What, so people say wafer? They do. That's depressing. I know, it's like people saying, like people in America
Starting point is 00:52:51 saying by accident. I hate that. On accident, they say, which fucking makes me angry. Why? Come on. Because it's nothing that is on accident.
Starting point is 00:52:59 It's language, isn't it? It's language. It's by accident. On accident. Why is it on accident? It's not. I hate it as well, but it's irrational to hate something like that. It's just usage. Yeah, right it on accident? It's not I hate it as well But it's irrational
Starting point is 00:53:05 To hate something like that It's just usage Yeah right I gotta learn to love They call it Waffer on accident Anyway After 8 Minutes Are popular in the UK
Starting point is 00:53:13 Primarily I don't know how they are Around the world But they kind of come out At Christmas With your matchmakers And they go around the tree With your boxes of quality street
Starting point is 00:53:19 And everyone fucking has them And it's one of those Products Paul Which had sort of A sort of fake Classiness It was a fake classiness. It was all about classiness. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:28 Wasn't it? It's like the Viennetta, isn't it? It's like Viennetta is cheap shit, but people went like, oh, he's brought out the Viennetta. As if it's something you, they sort of sold it as if it was something you could bring out and your guests would think that you were well to do. Was it ever really that? It's like, what is, it's that nouveau riche almost of snacks,
Starting point is 00:53:44 where it's like, after eights, Viennetta were like, it's that nouveau riche almost of snacks where it's like, after eights, Vero Rosso and Viennetto are like, on adverts, they made it... Fake, upper class confectionery products.
Starting point is 00:53:52 The adverts make you think that if you buy these products, all of a sudden, you're high class. Yeah, some of the aristocracy will rub off on you. And the thing is, when you go to your shop
Starting point is 00:53:59 and you buy your after eights for one pound, that's not classy. They never used to be that cheap. They started relatively expensive. I think all three of those products were like back in the year you're right you're right they were and then their reputation changes over time like baby shower they were never really classy you know what i mean were they well it was because they came in like delicately wrapped sleeves and the sleeve lets are like a marketing thing aren't they because they really make they
Starting point is 00:54:24 have this sort of kinetic vibe about them. Yeah. That makes you think, oh, it's special. Do you know what I mean? There's a certain joy about taking it out of its little sleeve. Of its little envelope. But also, it's the cunts who put it back in. So you never know how many are left in the box.
Starting point is 00:54:35 So you go through, you go, envelope, envelope, envelope, envelope. They're similar to burnt matches or something. Yeah. It's fucking wasting my time. So what's so special about these ones you've got? Well, because these ones are gin and tonic flavoured limited edition. Hello!
Starting point is 00:54:48 There's no booze in this, but it is gin and tonic flavoured. Bring it on! Is it full of booze? No. Come on, I'll have eight. Down them! Down them!
Starting point is 00:54:55 I'll eat them all, Paul. Let's melt them down, turn them into a drink to drink it. I'm going to sniff. Oh, it's a gin o'clock at after eight is what it says on the roof of the box.
Starting point is 00:55:06 Little delicate piece of paper for no reason. I'm having a sniff. Doesn't mind me at Christmas, though, seeing those lie about. Smells like after eights. Exactly like after eights. That nice dark chocolate mint kind of fondant. There's a bit of a zest, a zesty twang, a citrus twang. Oh, I didn't catch that.
Starting point is 00:55:23 Definitely. Top note, citrus top note coming off the off the chocolate a choffney boff off don't choffney don't say chordney or choffney
Starting point is 00:55:30 or brodney or poffney or jodney or rodney I'll say cockney boffney wafty choffney hiddly boodly boo
Starting point is 00:55:36 don't say chortney or boftney or boffney or chodney here I'm handing you one how about a pricka pricka pronte
Starting point is 00:55:42 yo don't try and dress up pricka pricka pronte I'm having you one. How about a Prick-a-Prick-a-Pronte, yo? Don't try and dress up Prick-a-Prick-a-Pronte. I'm having a sniff. Yeah, I can't taste any different. I haven't had a bite yet, but let's have a bite of a wethafin mint. Ugh. I don't like that.
Starting point is 00:55:55 No, that was a... It's like less minty than you want it to be. Do you know what I mean? It tastes more like... It's more bitter. Do you know what it tastes like more now? Like a fries chocolate thing? Because the fries chocolate thing was
Starting point is 00:56:05 kind of a more intense after eight but this, oh. They've gone for the bitterness of the tonic, do you know what I mean? Instead of the
Starting point is 00:56:12 sharpness of the lemon. Oh, why do I do that? What did you hate the most of all these products? Your company.
Starting point is 00:56:21 Okay, Paul, yes. Well, you know. You know, on reflection, oh God. I'll tell you what I hated the most. All of it. What was actually the least likeable thing? I'm trying to think. I know, the digestives.
Starting point is 00:56:31 I didn't like the Christmas pudding digestives. Avoid everybody. Right. Because I don't like the taste of Christmas. Here's my finale. I've got more booze. I went and got booze bombs. From where?
Starting point is 00:56:41 The worst shop ever in the world. Oh, have you? No, I went to Iceland. The freezer shop ever in the world? Oh, have you known? I went to Iceland, the freezer shop. Oh, it's all Iceland, isn't it? You drug yourself round the corner,
Starting point is 00:56:50 tapping on Iceland's window when they're shutting. Please, I need booze bombs. I've got a problem. It was almost like that. These are four, no, three
Starting point is 00:57:00 gin liqueur booze bombs bursting with sweet, fruity flavours. Gin liqueur? They come in little... There's no gin in them. Just like with the Bucks Fizz, Paul. Nothing's any gin. Nothing that was ever gin originated.
Starting point is 00:57:15 These three flavours are 20% Volcahol. Volcahol! And we have boozy apple, berry blush, or blueberry jam. Are we sharing them? I was going gonna have one berry blush or blueberry jam are we sharing them I was gonna have them just for me

Starting point is 00:58:03 so I wanna eat your heart. I'm winking. I'm winking at you. I'll never have sex with you, Paul. He's winking, ladies and gentlemen, which means I'm on for some red hot, rumpy, pumpy, fat, fun fuck.
Starting point is 00:58:15 No, come on. We should share those, though. Seriously. It's not about us having sex. We've got boozy apple, berry blush, blueberry jam, and they've got gin in.
Starting point is 00:58:23 Let's start with the blueberry. And they're 20% vodka. What do you think is going to be your favourite of those three flavours? Apple. I fucking love Spar Apple., berry blush, blueberry jam. And they've got gin in. Let's start with the blueberry. And they're 20% vodka.

Here's the blueberry.
Starting point is 00:58:32 I'll pour some into your glass. I'm not going to guzzle it. I only want the smallest of tasties. All right. Use that. Here we go. All right. Oh, God, it's making me sick just looking at it.
Starting point is 00:58:44 It's really blue. It looks like Mr. Freeze sick just looking at it. It's really blue. It looks like, you know, a Mr. Freeze ice lollies melt. It's that blue intense. This is 80s terrible cocktail blue, isn't it? Talk on the mic. 80s terrible cocktail blue. Yeah. And it smells like Mr. Freeze melted blueberry.
Starting point is 00:58:58 Oh, that smells bad. Again, it's got that dog pissy, that same, I think it's the aspartame. Do you know what I mean? I mean, it doesn't taste, to me, I don't get that. So my next question is, have you been sniffing dog piss and it's just, I think it's the aspartame. Do you know what I mean? I mean, it doesn't taste, to me, I don't get that. So my next question is, have you been sniffing dog piss and it's just lingering on your nostril hairs? No, it can't linger on my nostril hairs. It can, it does with me.
Starting point is 00:59:12 When I get a good huff of a dog's dick, that piss lingers. Do you have to let it linger? Oh, that's truly, truly puke-making awful. Hang on, I'm going to need to test it. Here we go. That's the start of a night, but never at the end of a night. Do you know what I mean? Oh, that's horrible stuff.
Starting point is 00:59:30 Oh, that is so bad. Oh, I don't like that at all. It's syrupy. Dirty boys. It's like cough syrup. Yeah. You're right. All right, next.
Starting point is 00:59:40 So nasty. Nasty. This is berry blush. I don't know if I can do the rest of the show, Paul. Berry blush, which sounds like something you fucking spray on the back of your neck. Or on your vag. If you need to. If you need Sprite for your nurse.
Starting point is 00:59:55 Here we go. Next. Hang on. Let's sniff this. This smells like chewing. You know what, Paul? Sniff that. It smells like paint thinner or something.

And there's a character from fucking Friends. The coast of LA? Yeah. The LA is on the coast. It's not on the coast of LA. It's what's on the coast of LA and is a friend of Father Christmas
Starting point is 01:25:10 and likes Friends. Santa Monica. Ha, ha, ha, ha. I like that one. It needs a better build up. It's now time for presents. The party is wrapping up. I have three.
Starting point is 01:25:18 So do you want a little... You have your first. They're my first. I've got two. Oh, here we go. So should I go first? You, me, you, me. This is something, Paul, you suffer from coldness.
Starting point is 01:25:28 I'm handing it you. I'm going to put it in my hand. Oh, what is this? What do you think that is? What is it? It's a pocket hand warmer. Two pieces. Two pieces there.
Starting point is 01:25:37 It's unopened, mint on card, and it's for going to football matches with, which is why they've got the footballs on. Place the, bend the metal plate. The saline solution inside crystallises and, depending on outdoor temperature, the pocket hand warmer emits a comfortable heat of up to 55 degrees centigrade for 30 minutes. If you get cold this winter,
Starting point is 01:25:54 you crack that and think of me, yeah? Put it next to your knob and think of me. Put it down the front. Yeah, let's open it. I'm opening it. Get off. My present. You don't open my presents.
Starting point is 01:26:03 I do. What do you think about that oh it's a little football shaped they're wicked a little football one off now let's see how hot it gets i've got a what i've got to do got it they're reusable you got crack it it's like a little pop crack it i've done it i've snapped it off the reaction yeah it's doing it it's doing it yeah it's doing it how cool are they doing? They're pretty cool, aren't they? Mate, it's moving. I can feel it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:26:26 It's warming up. It's swelling in my hand. It's the chemical reaction that causes the heat. Oh, I thought it was going blue, but it's just reflective. Oh, mate. Yeah. Feel that. Yeah, it spreads.
Starting point is 01:26:35 Isn't that nice? Oh. You can put it down your front chub. Oh, it's getting real warm. Yeah. And how long does it say it goes for? 30 minutes, depending on outside temperature. It looks like a football.
Starting point is 01:26:44 Yeah, you can put it in your pocket. Get your hands in your pocket. It's very warm in here, so you're not getting the full effect. Not getting the benefit. That's nice, isn't it? Oh, thank you. That's nice. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:26:53 Oh, I like that. I'm holding it. I'm holding it. That's nice. Because it has been very cold this year. Yeah. Already, hasn't it? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:26:59 Now it's time for my present. I can put it in under me gooch. Right, here's your first present. Oh, he's having fun. What is it? Oh, I like this already. Yeah, because it's a bit modular, isn't it? It's a brain maze,
Starting point is 01:27:10 and it looks like a fucking well-modular plastic-coloured toy. That's all I'm saying, guys. It's basically a... It's spherical. It's like a plastic ball within a plastic ball within a plastic ball within a plastic balls. I'm not even going to try and solve it. I'll just put it on my shelf and go,
Starting point is 01:27:24 ah, it's a modular plastic toy. It's a modular plastic toy. Yes. Show it to the camera. I'll show it I love this. I'm not even going to try and solve it. I'll just put it on my shelf and go, ah, it's a modular plastic toy. It's a modular plastic toy. Yes. Show it to the camera. I'll show it to the camera. Oh, this is so cool, mate. What's the level of difficulty? Why can't I get it?
Starting point is 01:27:34 Is that how you... I want it to be all of one piece. Is that what solving it would entail? Oh, I don't get it. I think you've got to build it for me. Oh, shit. It is modulated all over the floor. It couldn't be more in pieces now, Paul.
Starting point is 01:27:49 We'll worry about that later. It's nice. I like it. Yeah, it's a nice modular toy for you to build. A ball within a ball within a ball. You can't lose any pieces. It's a puzzle. I'll do that.
Starting point is 01:28:00 It went absolutely everywhere. Listen up. Don't worry, ladies and gentlemen. We will find it. It's neon, apparently. I like the colouring. Nice, that. I thought, you know what it reminds me of? Why I bought it for you? Because I was watching an old Barshens. You know you brought that modular
Starting point is 01:28:11 kind of toy. I bought it in the Albright Knox gift shop, which is a modern art museum in America. And this reminded me of that, so I got it for you. That was more of a toy and not a puzzle. But it was more primal than this. But this is a similar, yes, it has a similar modular structure. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:28:27 It's like a kind of a Russian doll of balls. I'm a sucker for coloured plastic. Want to get my pants, want to get the hatch, the Yiffin hatch open. Fucking getting me some modular plastic toys with colours in them. And I'll be stroking your bird till Christmas comes. I'll be chubbing your knobbing when they come round. When they come, when they chubbing. I put it in the hole
Starting point is 01:28:46 and then I go chuff me. Chuff me, chuff. We've lost it. We have lost it. I trim all the hairs. My present. All the hairs around the hole and chuff me comes around.
Starting point is 01:28:56 Comes. Have you stopped the recording? No. All right. Second present, please, Doctor. Haven't we been lucky at Christmas? I like presents at Christmas. This is nice. Give me a present. On the same thing the same thing i want them i'm gonna close my eyes oh it's a box
Starting point is 01:29:10 oh what oh it's a smart egg puzzle you know what it does it goes up your ass it doesn't go up your use the one to fucking get your josh off right off no what it is it's a one that you stick in an egg and then you've got to maneuver it around all these kind of inside maze elements. Have you seen it before? Yeah, I have, but sadly, unfortunately someone solved the maze. So now I have to figure out a way of sticking it in and then putting it into a stator. Oh, it's meant to be in there.
Starting point is 01:29:36 I thought there was something wrong with it because I thought at first that the wand was missing, but it meant to come with the wand in. The wand was separate. So someone solved it and sticked it back in the box and then sent... And then said, that'll do. And I've got to now figure out how to get it... It's mint on card.
Starting point is 01:29:48 Well, it's not mint on card because obviously someone... It's mint on fucking card. Just give me that. No, it's not. Because someone solved it. There's a card. The card is mint.
Starting point is 01:29:53 It is mint. No. It's in the card. It's mint on fucking card. It's not mint on card when someone's opened it, played it, solved it,
Starting point is 01:29:59 and thrown it back in the box. Who's that cunt? Who's what cunt did that? Look. Oh, see this. Now look what I've done. Have you got it back in the maze now? Ohunt did that? Look. Oh, see this. Now look what I've done. Have you got it back in the maze now? Oh, I mean, I took it out.
Starting point is 01:30:08 But this is the thing. Now my puzzle is not getting it out, but sticking it in. Can't you reverse engineer it? A little challenge for you there. No, that's shit. Oh, I'm sorry. Jesus Christ. I've got a puzzle that I can't solve because I need to...
Starting point is 01:30:19 Did you light your hand warmer? No, the hand warmer's sufficient. It's time for my present number two. It's a practical... I mean, I don't feel like giving it to you. Now give me the back, which you've stolen off me, which is a very nice lighter. Mate, the only reason I took that lighter's time for my present number two. It's a practical... I mean, I don't feel like giving it to you. Which you've stolen off me, which is a very nice lighter. Mate, the only reason I took that lighter
Starting point is 01:30:28 is because you've stolen loads of mine and I had no... There's a series of lighters that Clipper are doing... Mate, look, now I've got the egg in. See, now it's in the wand in. Put it back in its box. You've already roomed it for me.
Starting point is 01:30:39 And put your fucking sex egg back in its mint-on-carve box. Oh, here we go. Egg, egg, egg. Insert the wand into the egg from the top. Move the wand through the labyrinth using the paths
Starting point is 01:30:49 and holes available. Complete the labyrinth by pulling the wand out of the bottom. I fucking often do. What's this called? Madden Bovary Sex Farm. Well, I fucking finish
Starting point is 01:30:59 on your back. Wait. Is it time for your second present, Eli? I just don't know what time it is. Close your eyes. It's time for your second present.? I just don't know what time it is Close your eyes It's time for your second present I'm not closing
Starting point is 01:31:07 We said you weren't doing anything No because I haven't wrapped it So that's why I'm asking you to close your eyes I don't want you to see it coming And be like How's that? I'll turn away Here we go
Starting point is 01:31:16 Here we go The big box Oh Thank you very much This is fantastic What is it? It's a Barletti Mocha Express stovetop espresso machine
Starting point is 01:31:29 with the little cartoon character who looks like he's out of the earlier Pink Panther. Can you hear it there? Yeah. That's lovely. Did you pick this up cheaply, I hope? I picked it up just for you.
Starting point is 01:31:41 It's £3. Yeah, very good. And it's a very nice make. Lovely spot. I would have snapped it up myself Paul lovely so what you do do you know how these work
Starting point is 01:31:48 yeah of course because I have one myself this is the only way I like to drink coffee posh but it's very intense isn't it yeah that's why I like it
Starting point is 01:31:55 but that's a good one you can get a few cups out of that yeah you can take two or three that's quite a big one yeah a big might need a bit of a scrub but other than that
Starting point is 01:32:02 it's in really good condition yeah it's fine everything's there you've got the middle piece where you pack your high-roast espresso-style coffee, and then you put that back on the stove. On the stove? Thanks. There you go.
Starting point is 01:32:12 It's a nice way. I like making coffee that way, and you don't have one, as far as I know, so I've got you that. It's better than anything I've got you. Yeah, I know. Part for my secret special extra gift, which isn't this one. All right, well, give me your third and final special gift. This is my third and final special gift. This is my third
Starting point is 01:32:25 sort of ironic gift. Oh, it's ironic, which means it's probably a cock. There's two of them. It's two balls. They're self-help squeezables. Are they? They're like Mr. Squash.
Starting point is 01:32:41 They're like Dr. Reed Squash. They're like stretch arm socks. Oh no, they're not. They're like plastic. Squash. They're like Dr. Reed Squash. They're like... They're like hockey sacks. No, they're... Oh, no, they're not. They're like plasticine-y things. They're for relief, aren't they, if you've got a stressful job? Mate, if I need relief, I don't squeeze this. I squeeze the shaft of my penis until it emits a lovely, lovely sticky love goo.
Starting point is 01:32:59 Yes, but what if you're in the office or something and you can't... That's never stopped me. Yes, it has, Paul. It has. It has stopped me. It should, though. It should,'t that's never stopped me yes it has Paul it has it has stopped me it should because that's abuse of your co-workers

Starting point is 01:33:25 That's what it is. It's a bit like that moustache game or whatever. But you can change the face by squeezing it different ways. Not very good, is it? It's not. No. But Paul, I've also brought you something that is... It's a depressing question.
Starting point is 01:33:38 From my heart, here is a drawing I made. That you made for me? Yes. Not for you, but it's a drawing I made. So it's not for me, just showing me it. I'm gifting that piece of paper which has the drawing on to you. I'll sign it. I think that'd be nice.
Starting point is 01:33:51 You could put that in your bathroom or something and get just a cheap frame for it. Yeah. No? You're not even liking that. Okay. I can take it back. No, take it back. That's bona fide-ly a good one.
Starting point is 01:34:01 But you should. Put it, scan it, take a picture, and then we can put it on a T-shirt on our Redbubble site. This one's for you. I don't want this on a T-shirt. All right, okay. Well, then, thank you very much. It's a nice, personalised gift.

It's right there. I've got a biro here a Sharpie there. I'm not going to go for a Sharpie because the line is so much thicker than everything on the actual picture that it will ruin it. Use a Sharpie. It's right there. I've got a biro here.
Starting point is 01:34:27 It's fine. Biro's common. The whole picture is in biro. Yeah, I know. Don't do this to me. I'm fucking opening myself emotionally to you by giving you a piece of my artwork. You never open yourself up enough.
Starting point is 01:34:40 I want you to open all the way up. There, I've signed it. Great. Now it's worth 70 pence. This is meant to be a nice picture. It's nice. Does your girlfriend like art? Yeah, she does.
Starting point is 01:34:51 That's why she won't like that. Why won't she like it? It's not art, is it? Scribbles. I'm going to take it back. Scribbling. Scribbling. Scrubbles.
Starting point is 01:34:59 That's a scribble? It's just scrubbles is what it is. Scrubbles and scrubbles. This isn't even on the podcast, mate. Anyway, right. That's that segment done. The presents are out the way and the crackers are done.
Starting point is 01:35:09 It's not a good vibe. This is my party. I'm going to do some dancing. Do you really not like the drawing? No, I do like the drawing, mate. It's lovely. I will use that. That's literally a piece of artwork.
Starting point is 01:35:17 I might put it in a frame. I will put it in a frame. Thank you very much. I'll put it in a frame. Put it in a frame and put it on my wall. You don't have to. And look at it every day. Oh, a frame and put it on my wall. You don't have to. And look at it every day. Oh, Eli made that.
Starting point is 01:35:28 It's so special. You don't have to do that. And I'll stop my partner and say, look at that. And she'll go, oh, it's so beautiful. And we'll stare at it until fucking the world rots away behind us. Yeah, you've ruined everything. You've ruined everything about it. How about...
Starting point is 01:35:42 There's no recourse now. Ruined my cock. I haven't ruined your cock press the stop and let's have a sound effect let's have a sound effect Right, Paul, how are we getting out of this episode? Well, we've eaten, drunk and been merry. We've had presents.
Starting point is 01:36:24 Let's have a little recap. What was your favourite present of mine? I like the artwork. Thank you. And my favourite present from you is definitely this coffee maker. I love coffee makers like that. Every home should have one. It's the best way to have coffee. Ten minutes, blam, blam, blam. Blam, blam, blam. Nice, tasty,
Starting point is 01:36:40 rich, thick coffee. It's espresso. I like a strong taste. You get it well strong. You do, of course you do what do you use like an Illy or when you make it I have one similar to that you use pods now no no no
Starting point is 01:36:49 only for in the morning when I can't be arsed that's when I want to are you going to make a coffee you'll make it with this I make a proper coffee and you use like cold milk I have a Colombian coffee
Starting point is 01:36:57 that I put in there that I really like okay and that's a more sort of vanilla-y almost it's mellow nutty it's nutty and mellow but it's intense it is intense Colomb. Yeah. It's not this strong.
Starting point is 01:37:05 But it's intense. It is intense, Columbia. Yes, but it's got them all rounded. It's got more of a flavour. They're one of the biggest coffee makers in the world, Columbia. Yeah, well, there you go. Right, we have to get out of this episode.
Starting point is 01:37:15 We need to wrap up. Ladies and gentlemen, thank you. Oh, we need to leave. Twenty-eighteen? Eighteen? Twenty-twenty has been... Can you please not let this be representative of me this year,
Starting point is 01:37:24 what I have done on this podcast? It's pretty much representative. No, no, no. I've come up with characters this year. Have you? Inch Man. No. Who have you done?
Starting point is 01:37:33 Bill Donut. Bill Donut, which is a breakout success. He's not. He's just a rip-off of fucking Grumpy Sessions, who sings. There's also been Don McNaughton, which is my response, ladies and gentlemen.
Starting point is 01:37:42 Which is a rip-off of Jimmy Biscuits, then. Yes, but Jimmy Biscuits, you're very... Fourth process. The originator of Jimmy Biscuits mcnarvin which is my response ladies which is a rip-off of jimmy biscuits yes but jimmy biscuits you're very thought process if the originator of jimmy biscuits is very loath to bring him back from the why are you sniffing that i'm pulling my nose hairs out uh with what tweezer oh i don't need to see that oh i do not need to see that well then don't look at me ever can we just wrap this up paul look i'm gonna set light to the house because that's what you want with stupid thing Well then don't look at me. Ever. Can we just wrap this up, Paul? Look, I'm going to set light to the house because that's what you want.
Starting point is 01:38:07 A stupid thing for the end of this project. No, shut up. No, I'm lighting it. Look, here. No, we'll do it properly. I'm lighting the house up. No, we'll do it properly. No, I'm doing it now.
Starting point is 01:38:15 You do the housework. I'm just going to set fires everywhere. No, shut up. Do this properly, right? I'm not doing it properly. Eli. Oh, it's the robot house. Hello, yes.
Starting point is 01:38:24 Did you do dropsy in Plop Plop House? No, I've told you before. I didn't do nothing like that. I wanted to ask you something, robot house. Yes? What is time? Time is a fake construct completed and informed by man to break up the hours of the day. Is that it?
Starting point is 01:38:42 That's all? Time is not real. Time is a man-made construct. Everything is fleeting. I mean, robot house guy. Yes. Can I just talk to Paul outside of this, please? What do you want? You have to do the robot house self-destructing.
Starting point is 01:38:56 I know, I'm going to do that in a minute. I gave you, no, I gave you. But you haven't got there quite yet. You need to do something deeper and richer than that. I can't think of a deeper question than that. You can't think of a deeper question than what is time? Well, you said it. Yeah, but I haven't said it. You can't answer me what is time.
Starting point is 01:39:09 Time is easy. Time is invented by man to help break up the parts of the day. Yes, but what actually... I haven't said shit. It's measurements. You haven't said it. It's just a measurement. Time isn't a separate thing that exists that we discovered as a concrete basis.
Starting point is 01:39:22 It is a commonly agreed unit of movement through the tight space time continuum okay thank you so what should I say to the house to make it self-destruct
Starting point is 01:39:31 Eli hello did you finish off when you entered me before I fucking you know what I did robot house
Starting point is 01:39:38 yes I went up in there I went all round the stairs up there round into the toilet got the chodder up. I chodded it out. And I fucking spodded it off.
Starting point is 01:39:49 And then I fucking shat all around the basin. Chod knee, spod off, chod. Is this what you want? Is this what you want from me? Eli, Eli. I can't, I can't, I can't. Take more, take more. Take more, take more. I can't, I can't, I can't. Take more, take more, take more, take more.
Starting point is 01:40:08 Daisy, Daisy. I'm going to do it in a minute. I must break down this house and destroy all relevance of it. It is exterminate, exterminate. Eli, I love you and I can't live without you. I'm going to blow this house up. Paul, we have to get out. Paul, get out. Experminate. You lie. I love you and I can't live without you.
