Can we start this now then, please?
Are you doing your voice now?
No, I just want to start this podcast after sitting there and watching you thumb type a text message.
What's wrong with thumb typing?
It takes fucking forever.
I will go.
Like I've said before we started recording, Paul.
It's like watching a monkey press a button on a wall for a banana.
Right now, do you want to fucking see who's more dexterous?
I will go up against you.
How?
I'm sure there's some exist.
My pianist's magician's fingers against your wall sausage fucking... go up against you a test how I'm sure there's some exist pianists
magicians
fingers
against your
wool sausage fucking
they may look like
wool sausages
but these are dexterous
they look like
Prince Charles' hands
they do not
don't say that
your hands look like
worse versions of
Prince Charles'
they absolutely do not
and trotter hooks
do you know what
I will fucking own you
on any test of dexterity
alright
manual dexterity
here's a test of dexterity then Eli for you yeah what month is it any test of dexterity alright manual dexterity here's a text of dexterity
then Eli for you
yeah
what month is it
it is
mental dexterity
September
September
what week are we in
what numbered week
what do you mean
what numbered week
we're in the third week
great so what does that mean
have a think
what does that mean
the third week in September
what happened in the third week
of September
that I might have had
an interest in
Ghostbusters?
No, you failed
the mental dexterity test.
The answer is
it's my birthday week.
Oh, that's not
mental dexterity.
Look what that means.
Paul's bought booze.
Oh, fucking hell.
What have you got there?
I've got Moth Mojito.
Rum, mint, lime, soda, dreaming.
That's the same brand
that I tested the other night.
We tested the margarita the other night.
So, mate.
Happy birthday.
You're going to have a tough show, mate,
because I'm going to be in a right rum punchy mood.
Fucking hell.
Mmm.
Mmm.
What's that, a mojito?
Yeah.
Is it minty?
Yeah, it's nice.
Is it an artificial minty taste you're getting there?
Yes, it's nice.
So, here's the conceit behind this week's episode
Eli has to tie a balloon
there you go
you bet you can't do that
I'll fucking do it
quicker than you
listen
we played the sock game
identifying things
with our hands
and pulling them out fast
and oh
I seem to remember
I seem to remember
I'm utterly destroying you
at that
listen
here's the conceit
behind this week's episode, right?
It's my birthday.
I don't want to edit all this fucking week.
Is your birthday today?
Wednesday.
I don't want to edit this week.
I didn't forget it then, did I?
You will, though.
I'm just pre-empting your forgetfulness
because you didn't think ahead.
You didn't think to bring anything for today
knowing it's the third week of September.
What was I meant to bring?
A present.
You're impossible to buy presents for.
In seven years.
You're impossible to buy for.
I'm actually not.
The gesture's always what it is for me.
Well, Wednesday's Wednesday then, isn't it?
Yeah, but I won't see you on Wednesday.
You'll see what I got you on Wednesday.
I won't see you on Wednesday.
I've got something very special.
See you next Tuesday, more like.
You haven't got anything special,
because you never do.
Seven years, not once,
have you ever remembered
to get me anything on my birthday, ever.
That's not true.
And half the reason why
sometimes I don't get you stuff
is because you fuck off to Florida.
So you're never around for a podcast episode
on your birthday. So these week
episodes are Paul's lazy,
Paul drinky drink, Paul have
fun, Paul put Eli through the ringer
and I don't want to edit. So this episode is going to be
in real time, following the credits.
Everything happens in real time and we're going to do
a little bit of everything. We're going to do
a platter, a cheap pizza, candy shop,
a page turner, hot sauce,
noodle kitchen,
soda jerk.
Soda jerk?
Off brand,
brand off.
What's the soda?
The jerky soda
nom nom nom drink.
I've got it.
It's sorted.
What do you mean?
Oh yeah, that, yeah.
Oh yeah,
and then a Gannon's Golden Gaze.
Oh, you know what else I've got?
What?
I've got that
Vietnamese Red Bull,
the Sting.
You can throw that in
if we're quick.
Can we throw that in?
Taste it?
If we're quick,
we can throw it in.
Okay.
It's Paul's birthday show and it's happening in real time, and it's happening.
Oh, it's coming.
Eli, it's coming.
Yes, what's coming?
The noise.
No, don't.
Do your favourite one.
Do the favourite one.
It's my birthday show.
Do your favourite one.
You would cry too if it happened to you.
Do your favourite one.
What's my favourite one? A kissy kissy.
Yeah, you love that.
I can't believe. I'm looking at
a man's wobbly face.
This is what my life has come down to. I'm trying to see my other
wobbly face. The one with the wide smile.
I don't know what he means.
I don't know what that means.
I hate you
and your fucking noodle posse.
People love noodles.
It's just a fact of Cheap Show
you're going to have to learn to fucking accept.
Cheap Show. It's the Price of Shite.
Paul Gannon.
Eli Silverman Welcome to Cheap Show
And I go and I nuzzle
Start the clock, an hour, to do a whole world of Cheap Show
Is that all we've got?
Go now, time has started, there we go
Oh, aren't you doing it in ten minute segments?
No, we're just going to roll through it
Oh, I don't know what I'm doing now,
Paul. It's real time. I don't know what's going on now.
It's like the episode 24. Oh, I'm having...
Oh, I don't know what I'm doing.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
oh, oh, oh, oh,
oh, oh, oh, oh.
That's it. We've wasted a minute doing that.
Right, so... What's first?
What's first on the agenda, Paul? Hot sauce.
Oh, sauce report.
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do.
Wait.
Do-do-do.
Another type of sauce report.
Do-do-do-do-do-do.
It's time for a sauce report.
And another sauce report.
And another sauce report.
It's another fucking sauce report.
Oh, you can get me stalled.
Another one.
Hot retort.
I'm just saying shit now.
Hot retort. Hot retort I'm just saying shit now hot retort
hot retort
on the source report
now this may well be
what is this
this
is
only
only
I'm going to drink
while you're talking shit
do you have any more of those
what else have you got in there
I've got loads
but they're all for daddy
no daddy
Paul got it all for Eli.
This is a two-man marriage.
I think Daddy Eli did it.
Yeah, but the wife's got a drinking problem
because she can't put up with her husband.
Oh, you've got a triple pack of Desperados.
That's your favourite.
What else have you got?
Is that a gin and tonic?
Gin and tonic, a Bombay Sapphire.
Oh, that's decent, yeah.
How is the Mojito, honestly?
Because I...
For a tinned.
It's not bad for a tinned one.
It's not bad for a tinned one.
Do you know what's annoying about those moth?
I don't like the word moth in association with something that I'm drinking.
No.
Because it makes me think of powdery moths going in my mouth.
And it's just the word moth doesn't really work outside of the animal.
It's like, oh, you've got a nice fluffy moth.
I mean, you know, you can't see these.
You know what?
That does work.
Look, it's on the side
where it says
let's go someplace else
oh fuck off
yeah and what did
nice with ice
what did the margarita say
it said
oh the most beautiful mind
or something
you've got the most beautiful eyes
and it's the way
what
they list the ingredients
and then they've got an extra word
what was the one
the one on the
margarita was dance
this one says dreaming
dreaming oh wait there soulful juicy bittersweet it's hot an extra word. What was the one? The one on the margarita was dance. This one says dreaming. Dreaming.
Oh, wait there.
Soulful, juicy, bittersweet.
It's hot.
Havana's rain.
It's lazy,
poolside dreaming.
Goes with fresh cuisine.
Wants to see your wild side.
Cha-cha-cha.
Can you taste any rum notes?
Because I think
mojitos have rum in,
don't they?
This one,
I mean, it's probably there.
I don't really have
the palate for it. What's the source, Mr.'t they? This one, I mean, it's probably there. I don't really have the palate for it.
What's the sauce, Mr. Silverman?
This is...
57 minutes left.
Spring roll dipping sauce.
Mild.
Right, good.
Why are you taking forever to get in there
with your fucking stupid sausage hands?
Fuck off!
Come on.
You've got a hand like a rack of sticky barbecue ribs.
I'm just trying to see the best before.
This is by a brand called Suri.
Talk into the mic as well.
Suri?
Suri.
What is soap?
Suri.
Suri, what is hot sauce?
No, not Suri.
Hot sauce?
Here's a sauce that is hot.
You are tiring me out.
Well, come on then.
Do something.
It's a high energy episode.
Stop shouting at me.
I'm just trying to see the best before.
For our both our sakes.
It didn't stop you two fucking weeks ago
when you maybe eat that rotted muck.
This is Thailand.
No, it's not.
This is Great Britain.
How dare you? I don't have spoons for this sauce. Let's have. No, it's not. This is Great Britain. How dare you?
I don't have spoons for this sauce.
Let's have a minute's silence for the Queen.
No, I wouldn't
go there, Paul. Let's have a minute's
silence for the Queen.
No talk of bumming her
anymore. Look, mate, I'm not going to say it was
directly related to her death,
but I think I tied her out somewhat.
Oh, God!
You destroyed her.
Oh, the queen can die happy now.
Oh, no.
Is that what it was?
I have a bowel full of arse.
She achieved the greatest orgasm of her life.
She did.
And then it was like, that's it.
That's my reign over.
I'm out now.
I'm out.
Tap out.
Tap out.
Okay.
Now, how are we going to taste this without a spoon?
Oh, I thought you brought a spoon.
Can I grab a spoon?
Yes.
Oh, no.
Just use the lid.
I'll use the lid.
You pour it straight in your mouth, and I'll use the lid of that.
What are we talking about now?
I'll use the lid of that orange juice.
Right.
Which I brought today.
I've got to get up.
This is not professional.
Now, I feel that this is probably very similar to a sweet chilli.
Right, come on.
Which is a Thai-style sauce as well.
But I think this is designed for dipping your spring rolls in.
Do you like to dip your spring rolls, Paul?
You know I do.
You do.
I like to dip them.
I just plop them in.
Just a fluff.
A fluff.
I love it.
I love a spring roll.
I love a spring roll.
I'm going to try and drink all of this in an hour.
Here we go.
Oh, God.
You're going to be out of order.
Now, Huff Report.
The Huff Report.
Come on.
I can't find...
Oh, very garlicky.
Yeah.
More garlic.
Oh, baby.
That's got a real fermented sort of...
It's got carrots in.
Did you establish that the cell used by date was solid?
I can't see it.
Is it on the lid?
I'm going to hand
I'm going to hand it to you
but careful
oh god
it could be
you can't see it
it's usually printed
isn't it
faintly with black
popper dot
it's not there though
was it on this
popper dot writing
it's not on the
it was sealed
you're right
I can't see fucking nothing
it's you know what
it's a really
I'll just have a little sip.
What's the smell like?
What's the Huff report on that?
It smells a little bit onion-y,
a little bit garlicky,
a little bit tangy sweet.
Maybe I'll just put it on my finger.
Don't.
I need to fucking drink that.
You're putting your filthy pianist finger in there.
Oh.
It's a little bit like a ketchup.
It feels ketchupy. Sweet, yeah.
And a nice mouthfeel.
Is that what your ketchupy mouthfeel?
That's quite nice, actually. I reckon that would be nice
on a burger or something, you know?
It's versatile. I mean, they say it's just for dipping
spring rolls, but you could definitely use that.
Snoop, Snoop, peanuts are we.
In all sorts of sauce
environments.
What a sauce environment?
A food environment where a sauce is prevalent.
Where sauces thrive.
So anywhere.
Like anywhere in the kitchen where sauces congregate and thrive, Paul.
Alleyways.
No.
Like a collection of them all hang out in an alleyway.
No.
Those are dangerous as you walk past them.
Dangerous sauces.
Yeah.
You're walking past them
and they're like giving you
the evil eye.
You just want to go home.
You took a short cut,
but now you've got to go
past these hot sauces
and they look bad.
They do.
Oh, I'm not going to go
through the hot sauce part
of town ever again, Eli.
Now, this has carrots
and turnip in.
Turnip?
Yeah, I think what they do
is basically just a classic
Thai sweet chilli.
This has been going on for seven minutes.
I'm almost at the tasting point, okay, Paul?
Just let me have a few words.
Taste now.
Let me have a few words and we'll wrap this up, okay?
All right, we've got to keep going.
Ding, ding, ding, dong, ding.
Let me have a few words of this sauce.
Now, I think it's very much like a classic Thai sweet chilli.
Fuck me.
Do you like that sauce?
Yeah, Paul, you like that sauce.
But they've added...
Bored of this.
I think they've added...
Already.
To turn it into a spring roll dipping sauce, Paul,
they've added some crunch.
They've added some texture.
And that, it comes in the form of little carrot and turnip sticks.
You ruined the pace of this podcast with your...
I'm about to taste the sauce.
Am I allowed to have a...
I've had your dirty finger...
Performance opinions.
This dirty, finger dirty finger polluted sauce
yes this one did touch
my dick today
you put your finger
oh did it
when I was holding
my willy for peeing
oh that's fucking great
and then I didn't wash it
you put your filthy
pianist finger
in the nozzle
of my sauce bowl
my slender digits
slipped inside
your sauce pipe
right
yeah it's alright innit
very nice
it's a nice
not too sweet
sweet enough
very similar
just to a
to a
bosh
mojito
done
to a
sweet
chilli sauce
gin and tonic
bloody hell
take it easy mate
wow
oh that's a swerve
yeah
after a mojito
it's a swerve
it's like brushing your teeth
and then drinking orange juice
what a swerve
yeah tonic's a real
it's got juniper in hasn't it
oh is that Bombay Sapphire
yeah
I had yesterday
in Bristol I drank some Bombay Sapphire yeah I had yesterday in Bristol
I drank some
Bombay Sapphire Premier
good
which was quite nice actually
good
which is
good
good
listen
just do the fucking pod
by yourself
I haven't mate
you fucking are today
can we wrap this up then now
I haven't
I've tasted the sauce
it's a very nice sauce
next
let's keep the palate
a flopping
with the cheap eat that you've brought as well that's it that's the sauce. It's a very nice sauce. Next, let's keep the palate aflopping with the cheap eat that you've brought as well.
That's it. That's the Sauce Report over.
Thank you for listening to the Sauce Report.
Next, it is cheap eats and Eli's brought the cheap eat this time.
And what is it, Mr. Silverman?
Bonkers banana spray.
Now, this is a ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, double segment feature.
This is a scissoring segment As we like to say when two collide
So this is also a candy store segment
As well as a cheap eat
Well you've never had a segment called candy store you fucking moron
What is it the old candy shop
The froth shop you twat
Can't you remember anything about your life
Or this your life's work
It's 300 episodes as of next week
And as of now I barely want to remember any of them, let alone the ones I'm trying to...
The plan is I make so many of these that I forget them.
This is a novelty confectionery product, Paul, which is a banana flavoured spray.
Now, here's the thing.
For the mouth.
So it's like a spray drink?
It's a spray for your mouth.
Yes, it's banana spray.
And it comes in a very plasticky sort of peeled
banana segment
and then you've got
the actual banana
sitting in the banana
peeled
plasticky segment
and it's got a
fucking crazy
banana in sunglasses
yeah he looks
like a wacky banana
he's bonkers Paul
cock-a-bonkers
cock-a-bonkers
yeah how about that
twibbub
twibbub
wibby wibby twibb about that? Twibble, twibble!
Wibby, wibby!
Twibble!
Ten minutes in.
Twibby, twibby!
Wow, we've almost done two segments.
I do like how the banana is the bottle of the drink,
and yet, aesthetically, it works.
You know, it hides the spout in the banana peel segment.
These are turning up in shops all over North London. I mean, mate, landfill, though, innit?
It's pure landfill.
It's earth-killing landfill fodder.
It's terrible.
It's a terrible thing, but they don't stop making it.
If they make them, we have to taste them.
And I think it's going to be awful tasting as well.
Don't stop making a load of bullshit.
Don't stop killing the earth's resources.
It really has a lot of plastic in it because there's a sort of wrapper.
A pointless wrapper.
I suppose you could reuse this as a sort of plastic in it because there's a sort of wrapper. A pointless wrapper. I suppose you could reuse this as
a sort of breath mint
banana. You have it in your car.
You've been drinking all
night and you're driving and the police pull you over and you
thought, I've got some bonkers banana spray
in my mouth. That's all you've got.
Sir, you smell of vodka and that
bonkers banana spray. What is
an alcoholic banana drink? There must be one,
right? Well, you had banana daiquiri, but that's not's yeah that's one of those a daiquiri is a very basic
cocktail yeah rum sugar and lime juice but then the daiquiri took on this whole thing in the in
the 70s and 80s right where they just do stupid really sugary mango daiquiri i think a bang
banana daiquiri is sort of legit and i think they use banana puree in it with rum and lime.
So you don't get, like, it's not like a Midori
where there's, like, a banana...
There's definitely banana liqueurs.
I bet there's several, yes.
There has to be, right?
Yeah.
In fact...
So you could get drunk on that,
and then spray your mouth with that,
and then defeat the purpose of drinking the banana daiquiri.
There's banana rum liqueurs and stuff.
Yeah, it's a big one.
But you've got
an aversion to the
it's not an aversion
so much as I just
don't like the flavour
of fake banana
it's already coming off it
I've just
ooh
because isn't it the story
where it's like
the banana flavour
that you have in sweets
and ice cream or whatever
is based on the
quote unquote
original banana flavour
and not the one
that exists now
that's been mass produced
and deformed over the years in production what are you trying to say like there's a banana flavor
that this stems from these fake flavors stem from but that banana flavor doesn't exist anymore
because of the manufacturing of bananas around the world means they've changed so what are you
saying what banana flavor have we got now i don't know you don't know what you're saying
sometimes the banana flavoring is more traditional in the original banana flavour
as opposed to
real bananas now
not tasting like bananas
stop saying bananas
bananas
we've really went
into a world
of incomprehensibility
I don't know
what you're trying
to say about
I'm Lady Bananas
right
can I get the piano out
fuck off Lady Bananas
Lady Lady Bananas. Right. Can I get the piano out? Fuck off, Lady Bananas.
Lady, Lady Bananas, sitting in your bed.
Got a hairy muffkin and a fizzy head.
Oh, Lady Bananas. Stick it in my puddin'.
I'll so spread my legs.
Oh, you'll squeeze your cum out and I'll take the dregs.
Oh, Lady Bananas.
Drippy drips upon my little chinny. What a bike, Lady Bananas. Oh, Lady Bananas. Drippy drips upon my little chinny.
What a bike,
Lady Bananas.
I'm Lady Bananas.
And I sound
just like all the
Paul Gallagher's characters.
Are you ready?
Can we have
a moment of decorum?
Yeah.
Were you confusing it
with the...
Dick or rum?
I'll have rum, please.
You are.
You've found too much rum already.
I'll have dick then.
Dick or rum.
I'll have dick. You'll never have dick for me. That's for sure. Or already. I'll have dick then. Dick or rum. You'll never have dick for me.
That's for sure.
Or rum.
I'll give you rum.
What if you run the rum
down the length of your cock
into my mouth
so I don't touch your penis
with my lips
but I do drink the rum.
Please, please.
I know it's your birthday
and everything,
but please.
Were you getting confused
with castorum?
I don't care.
Taste that now.
Which is the raspberry flavour
Which used to come from the glands of
Come on, drink the banana drink
I'm going to
Mate, you fucking
Totally rude
Do you want a desperado, mate?
I don't, I don't fancy it
I was drinking all weekend
I did a DJ gig at the top of the gherkin pool.
Tales from the dance floor.
Was it good?
Yeah.
Great.
Tales from the dance floor.
It was almost vertiginous up there.
How, you know, because it's basically it's a...
Vertiginous?
Explain word.
Causing vertigo.
Oh, okay.
It was like, it's like a viewing platform room where the party was in.
Wow.
Like it's panoramic. And it's the very tip of the gherkin. If you imagine where the party was in. Wow. It's panoramic.
And it's the very tip of the Gherkin.
If you imagine the Gherkin building.
Yeah.
Where the cum spunks are.
You had a good time on the tip of the Gherkin, did you?
It was Saturday night.
But it's all glass.
It's all those diamond-shaped planes.
And you could see everything.
And I was almost getting a bit like...
Because I sometimes get vertigo on bridges and stuff when it's wobbly.
I had vertigo last week
when I looked over the side of that bridge. It's that weird
feeling where your brain suddenly kind of goes whoa
like it kind of goes big and small. That is.
It's that dizzy feeling.
Spray the banana in your mouth. You can also get vertigo
when you're with COVID
or when you're withdrawing from
antidepressants I found. Oh there you go.
Are you ready for the spray?
Yes.
Antidepressants, I found.
Are you ready for the spray?
Yes.
Are you all ready for this?
Are you ready?
You ready to get sprayed?
Oh dear.
There's a lot more sour.
Really? They've tried to balance it.
Sour banana?
Yeah.
It's like a sour, sweet banana.
Bonkers banana by Rose.
It's not just a pure banana.
Oh, it's strawberry and banana, it says here.
Ah, that's what I'm getting.
That's that tartness of the strawberry.
Why has it not got a strawberry character in sunglasses?
No, it's just got a banana going.
Why is it a banana?
This has not been thought through, this product.
I'm going to test this now.
Here we go.
But you know.
Oh, that's weird.
You're looking for the strawberry now.
You can taste it now.
I know it's there.
That's what the sour component is.
That is the sour, isn't it?
Oh, God.
You don't like it?
Can I have another spray, please?
God, he's...
There's a cloud of fucking
banana mist around your
mouth.
Oh, my God.
I'm a chaser.
It's not very pleasant.
I put like 12 squirts in. I know.
Right, well, then
that's that. What do you think of that? Five out of ten.
Oh, yeah, I'll give it a 3 That was terrible
It's not sweet enough
Are you all ready for this?
Right so we've done
What is the point of that?
That is a world killing piece of shit
You could use it as a
43 minutes past
And we've done
Banana
And we've done hot sauce
You could use it as a vibrator substitute
Couldn't you?
And we've done Tales from the Dance Floor.
That's three segments.
It's very phallic.
You can get that up your...
You've got one, two, three,
four more to go.
Right.
Eli, should we do
the Noodle Kitchen now
so we can guarantee
it stays in the episode?
All right.
So here's the thing.
We're going to do
Noodle Kitchen now, live.
Eli, tell us what we're making.
I'll get the recorder ready
because we're going to...
I'm going to crossfade this.
I'm going to do this,
do that.
This was a noodle
I don't know if you remember Paul
we had some
very interesting noodles
sent to us recently
which we tasted a few of
we tasted the king of hell
fiery
sort of one in a tray
and it was hot
that was bloody hot
it was bloody hot
it was bloody bloody hot
bloody bloody hot
it was bloody bloody bloody bloody hot
bally hot
it was bally bally
bally bally bally bally bally hot so what's this one this is It was bloody, bloody, bloody, bloody hot. Bloody hot. It was bloody, bloody, bloody, bloody, bloody, bloody hot.
So what's this one?
This is, it's hard to tell because it's in Japanese,
but it says at the top, it has a warning triangle,
and it says the spiciest ramen in the world.
They all say that, though.
G&B Company seems to be the manufacturer,
and then it says above the actual title, which is in Japanese.
Yeah.
It says The Devil of Fire.
The Devil of Fire.
So this could be even hotter.
I don't know.
But I'm prepared to give it a go.
It has quite a nice bit of artwork with a skull pepper sort of design on the cover there, Paul.
We tried that mr mayo
noodle was in this batch do you remember that mr mayo mayo mayo yes i do remember that
oh god stop singing please my meatus is wide and it wants a bomb hole. Mail. Meet us.
Meet us.
Meet us.
Meet us.
Feed scrubs
and it wants to come home.
Right, can we get on with this then?
Because now we're going to go live too.
Okay.
Country Urban Noodle Kitchen.
Come with me, Paul.
It's going live.
Do you want to come with me now?
Right now?
Into the Country Urban Noodle Kitchen.
Here we go.
Have you stopped recording on that?
I'm going to keep recording on that.
Okay see you in a minute guys.
We're going to the other recording now and we're going to have some noodles
in the country urban noodle kitchen with me Eli Silverman.
Right okay we're on mic two now.
Mic two we're on, we're on, we're on.
Right so we're heading into the kitchen.
This is happening live.
I've already pre-boiled the kettle, but I'm boiling it again for you.
I presume this is just a boil-in-the-bag thing.
What do you mean, boil-in-the-bag? Of course it's not boil-in-the-bag.
You know what I mean.
You're a complete chaos merchant with your mouth garbage all the time.
I'm going to get my booze. Here we go.
I'm going to get my booze.
I'm getting my booze. How about go. I'm going to get my booze. I'm getting my booze.
My birthday. No one remembers
my birthday ever. No one ever
does and he doesn't
ever remember my birthday and we've been
we've known each other for 15 years or whatever.
Never once got me a birthday
present. How about that? What a cunt.
I've got my booze
so I'm ready to go. Now I can see
Paul, I can see it's all in Japanese unfortunately, but I can see it says
there 550ml, so I'm assuming that's how much water we need.
Yeah, that's probably right isn't it then? Yeah.
Luckily I've got this pork kettle thing.
Pork kettle?
No, it's this pork kettle thing that I use for my pour over coffee.
You stink of booze.
Kiss me.
You're drinking during the day.
Don't.
I'd kiss me.
I will never.
Sad, you know, Eli.
What is?
Denying my love.
He could take it.
Imagine if we became true lovers.
How could we be lovers if we can't be friends?
Can you help me to make this noodle?
Yeah, how would you like me to help?
Standing around drinking fucking G&T and singing stupid shit.
This is my secret plan, to just be a naughty boy today.
£5.50 I need to measure out.
£5.50.
£5.50.
That's £300.
Alright, £300.
You can do me a favour by turning the cooker on.
Cooker on.
Hey baby, do you want some good times, my sweet little love?
I'll turn you on.
That's 300, 400, 500.
So you need 50.
Right.
It's a little bit over, but there'll be...
It's on a medium heat right now.
Get it on top.
Get it on high.
This is...
Oh, fuck's sake.
Oh, shut up.
Oh, shut up, babies.
Makes a change for the drug deals.
Come on.
Let's get a little bit over the limit.
But there will be some...
Marginal, though, isn't it? It's marginal.
It'll boil off.
Marginal.
It'll boil off the extra few millilitres.
It's marginal.
Now, let's see how many packs.
You've got a prediction how many packs this will be it's going to be like one of my
favorite rappers eli two packs two pack that's right sitting on that gag for years you've made
that gag you haven't been sitting on it yes you make it i'm trying to forget a lot about this
podcast did i mention that oh look it's got a foil. Oh, it does. So it's going to be nice
and fresh. Double foiled.
It's double foiled. That's probably
because the chilli gets out and you can kill
people. Yeah. It's bloody. This might
be even hotter.
Look, it's got a little warning on the actual
this is. It fucking does. It's all
powered. It's one sachet.
Simple noodle, one sachet and that's where the
magic is. So boil it, mix it., simple noodle, one sachet, and that's where the magic is.
So boil it, mix it.
Boil it, and then we'll take it back through for the tasting.
Water's bubbling.
I wonder how many minutes it wants me to do on this. How often does it usually? It's like two or three, isn't it?
Well, no, with these larger ones, with the thicker noodles and more water, it's more like five.
That's going to need five, I think.
All right, well, it's 24 minutes past now,
so at 29 you can pull it out.
OK.
And you can take the noodle out as well.
Then you can sponk directly into my nose.
And then we could have gay sex, couldn't we?
I don't mind what kind of sex we have.
Or even straight sex with each other.
I mean, two straight men can have sex, can't they?
I don't want to talk about this.
I'm lonely as a child
walking in the park,
walking in the dark,
a stranger in the night.
You're not going to help.
What are we to do?
I don't want this frivolity
in the country urban noodle
test lab kitchen, Paul.
This is like, honestly,
perfunctory to me.
All of this. Oh, this is perfunctory to me It's all of this
Oh this is perfunctory
Could you stop getting in the way
You big drunk twat
You're going to be unmanageable
By the end of this recording
Good
Are you going to try and finish
All three desperados as well
Nah that might be a bit excessive
But I'm definitely going to drink one more
And this gin and tonic's going down
Tickety tonk
It is now
The taste
Sensation is Juniper jungle Are you doing so timely and this gin and tonic's going down tickety-tonk. It is now. The taste sensation is...
Juniper jungle with all of your friends.
Are you timing the noodles?
I said, didn't I?
It went in at 24 minutes past.
Right, shall we get the powder in the...
Oh, this is going to be...
I just have a feeling...
It's going to be hot fuck.
I haven't even considered the heat yet.
There's a little devil man on the package.
With the two times spicy
and those type of noodles,
you get a liquid pack
with those Koreans.
This is all powder.
One large powder.
What do you think that means?
It's the Scoville. I reckon that's 150 million Scovilles, is it?
Really?
150 million would be...
6 million was that one we had the other time.
That's not 150 million. We need to do a translation
On this
Yeah
I can't be arsed
Alright
Well it might have fish in
And then that would be
The end of the recording
As your fucking throat swells up
If I have a little bit
I'll probably be alright
Yeah you'll be okay
You're lucky that you don't
Have a really severe
What do you think that number is
14.444
That might be the million Scovilles
14 million.
That's excessive.
Is it? I don't know.
That seems excessive to me.
It's a mystery.
It's a mystery.
It's a mystery.
Who was that?
Toyah Wilcox, isn't it?
It's a mystery.
Toyah Wilcox.
It's a mystery.
Look at the orange.
Don't sniff too hard.
Oh, God.
That's very dry.
It's a very dry heat.
Ooh, it's got seaweed-y.
You know what I mean?
That's so kombu.
Wow, look, there's just a load of it.
Yeah.
Well, I think, look, there's bits of desiccated spring onion in there,
so I think we should put this in, actually, whilst it's cooking.
In with the water?
Yeah.
Really?
Yeah, that's what you do.
How many minutes have we got?
Let's have a look.
27, so two minutes left. What the...
Two minutes left. We put it in at 24. It's now 27. And you said five minutes. So it's been three minutes, has it not?
Right, I'm putting the powder in.
He's putting the powder in. It's a very rich, orangey-brown.
Orangey-brown, yeah. It looks like a good
quality noodle. You could almost say it's like a
kind of golden-brown
texture like summer.
That's not how that song goes.
I'm engorged and
a fat comer. It
all comes out thick as
a cloud. This is the low point, man.
I like to come...
You're so terrible. I'd like to shout out
loud.
Mate, honestly, I'm just mentally checking
out of this episode. You mentally checked
out several years ago from your own fucking
career. That's also
true. Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Right, are we there? They're looking
pretty good. Yeah, they're looking pretty good. Do you drain it?
No. It's a soup?
Yes. are you sure
it wouldn't say 550 ml if it if you just had to cook it in water and then drain the water
it because it's specific about how much liquid it's definitely a ramen and a ramen is always
served in soup okay yeah so this i can tell you like no noodles who am i who am i to say
i do know a thing or two about noodles. Who am I to judge?
That's what they so have been told.
My noodle knowledge is so right.
When it comes to us.
Smell the kombu.
That is kombu seaweed.
Yeah.
You can see the flecks of black.
What's kombu seaweed?
It's that thick green seaweed
if you sometimes see it in miso soup.
You know that stuff?
Oh, okay, yeah.
It was the thing that caused
Momofuku Ando
to discover umami.
Oh, well, there you go.
A fact as well.
Okay, we're ready.
I'm going to serve this up.
Serving it up into a bowl.
Shall we take it back into the...
Yeah, we're going to take it back into the...
The kitchen's free now.
Yeah, now I need to go in the living room for a sec.
Well, we're going to be on recording still,
so you're going to have to deal with that.
Oh, it's going to have to be all right with us.
Now, just give me one second.
That's Rogan the flatmate there.
This is live.
It's exciting stuff.
I'll put the noodle on the table.
Put the noodle on the table.
Right, we're going to go back to the recording session in a moment.
Oh, Christ, it's already 27 minutes in.
All right, okay, we're going to go back to mic number two.
Eli's flatmate has entered the room,
mic bat expert himself.
I'm actually looking for a...
What's he looking for?
A Smiths album.
A Smiths album.
I was looking for a Smiths album,
then I found the Smiths album,
and heaven knows I'm miserable now
The Queen is dead
Long live the Quim
Yeah, that's topical, isn't it?
Yeah, it is
We've talked about the Queen
Is this on now?
It's still on, we're still recording
I want to work Mike back
We've got half an hour left in this episode
Has he put his womble suit on
And released a sort of morning video?
No, he's just actually looking for...
Remember you're a morning.
Remember you're a morning.
He could do...
The Queen is dead by the...
That was all over social media as soon as it happened.
Jack and I got a bump in the fucking digital charts as a result.
No, definitely did.
What a load of fucking shit.
You know like Elton John, when Diana passed, he did a candle and he reworked one of his earlier hits. No, it definitely did. What a load of fucking shit. You know like Elton John when Diana passed,
he did a candle,
he reworked one of his earlier hits.
Yeah, he did.
Couldn't Mike Batt do
Bright Eyes?
Why?
Bright Liz,
burning like fire.
Something like that.
She's in hell.
She's in hell.
Is that what Bright Eyes is about?
No, I'm just saying
you can't say Bright Liz
burning like fire.
Well, they are going to burn her,
aren't they?
Are they? Are they cremating the Queen? No, she's lying in state and then they i don't know what
they do she looks so fucking vulnerable she's catholic isn't she
yeah they're gonna they'll grease her up wax her up
and then close the door eat the noodle all right oh Mike Bat resident says let's do it okay now
have a huff on that
see if it's
what it was giving out
there we go
has smell
let's have a smell
first Paul
it's a good looking noodle
it doesn't smell
particularly enraging
well maybe it's not
maybe they're just lying
maybe it's just quite spicy
it actually smells quite nice
yeah it looks nice
I'm kind of hungry
kind of like almost
tomatoey or something
yeah
well it's kombu
kombu is a very umami.
It'll have an umami.
It's nicely coloured, the noodles.
They're nice, juicy, thick noodles.
Yeah.
And you've got a whole spoonful of it.
I've got a spoonful of noodle.
Dare I sip some of this broth?
I want to see what your reaction is
see how hot it is
okay it's him
uh oh
uh oh
ready
uh oh
oh no
is it milk
milky time
I'm gonna take a bite now
oh
oh
oh
that has an instant
oh I put a
fucking make
oh that's hot
oh baby
oh baby that's hot it's still quite. Oh, baby, that's hot.
It's still quite pleasantly flavoured, though.
Quite nice.
Which is problematic.
Oh.
Oh.
Is that as hot as...
Oh.
Oh, it's quite tasty, though.
It's tasty, but oh.
I like the taste of that better than the King of Hell one we tried.
Yeah, the King of Hell one we tried.
Yeah, the King of Hell one was kind of like all heat and very little flavour.
This is more flavour, but it is packing a serious punch.
I feel like I'm melting.
That is salty.
I feel like I'm pushing all of my moisture to the surface of my skin right now. I can actually get down with this.
It's not that.
I can get down with it.
Get down, get down, get down, get down.
Oh, I'd recommend that.
I'd recommend that.
If you're really into hot stuff,
that's more bearable for me than the Samyang two-time spicy.
That's more bearable than the Samyang two-time spicy.
It's building, but it's...
It does build.
I reckon after two or three big mouthfuls,
it would be impossible.
Oh, this is my third mouthful I'm going for.
Oh, he's going in for number three.
It is tasty.
That's the thing.
As long as it's tasty,
be as hot as you like.
Oh, he's enjoying this.
That is a nice noodle.
It's a nice noodle.
That is nice.
It's very hot,
but for me,
it's just before punishment level.
It's just riding the punishment level.
You know what I mean?
It's edging it, isn't it?
It's edging the punishment.
But it's very tasty.
Oh, that's good.
I wonder what that...
It's tasty, tasty, very, very tasty.
It's also fucking hot.
It is hot, but it's good.
I'm going to have...
I'm enjoying it.
I'm getting an endorphin release
and it's not too much pain.
Paul, I'm enjoying this noodle.
I've got a sweat on.
Yeah, it's good stuff, man.
But whereas the King of Hell was just pain immediately this is like this is nuanced it's a bit more nuanced
a bit more nuanced uh you could have to have it with something else i think to break up that like
a nice bit of um like meat in a kind of like something else in it like some veg maybe or
something but yeah that is reaching pain point now for me right well, well I'll tell you what. I will eat it.
I want to finish this. Put it down. I'd like to
finish this now. I'd like to finish you off.
I've been edging you for a while
and I want to finish you off on my birthday. Oh, that's nice
but I'm going to need a drink of water, Paul, so.
Well, stop, because we can go into our next
segment, which is both
a soda jerk
and an off-brand brand off.
I need to clean my palate. Well, go get some water then and I'll set up the off-brand brand off. I need to clean my palate.
Well, go get some water then
and I'll set up the off-brand brand off
while you're doing that
because we've got, hang on,
27 minutes left on the clock.
Just saying.
Time is a ticky-tocking.
Right.
So, after the live show,
which you'll hear next week,
eh?
How about that?
We met Rhiannon, who's been a long time fan hello riannon she came all
the way down from the isle of sky hawkeye the new and she gave us two bottles of something i'm gonna
get them now i'm so sorry so a little while ago iron brew changed its recipe to have less sugar
in or something like that and so as a result the new
iron brew hasn't gone down particularly well with the hardcore faithful we've mentioned this on the
podcast in the past we've also talked about iron brew in detail in our show's history maybe look
that up as it stands Rhiannon gave us a bottle of current iron brew the one you can get on any
shop shelf in Scotland or indeed the rest of the country. But also, she gave us a old iron brew, 1901,
very special vintage, old and unimproved.
So I'm guessing that this is the quote-unquote
original taste of iron brew
before they stuck a load of chemical shit in it.
It says, taste the first ever iron brew recipe.
Brewed just like we used to in 1901.
So that means what they forced kids
to make it
and they all died
in the machinery
made from girders
it's brilliantly sweet
and caffeine free
oh god my mouth
is on fire Paul
hide on it
I've done too much
of that
shut up
my mouth hurts
shut up
but it's
shut up
fucking milk drinking prick I'm drinking booze I up! But it's... Shut up.
Fucking milk-drinking prick.
I'm drinking booze, I'm hard.
But it's still that taste you can't describe because there's nothing like it.
Not back then, not now, not ever.
So what we're going to do is...
Taste compare them.
Yeah, close the door.
You've got milk on your beard.
It looks like you've got a cum stash.
Got milk. You've got a bakark beard. It looks like you've got a cum stash. Got milk.
You've got a bakarky beard on.
Right.
I might have destroyed my mouth.
You flew too close to the sun there, mate.
Didn't you?
Flew too close to the sun.
I'm really...
But my whole mouth is really burning.
Is it really burning
because you had four mouthfuls on it
because you couldn't put it down?
My lips are really burning.
Yeah.
Hot for me.
Hot for teacher. Close the door and stop panting like you're doing a porn Yeah. Hot for me. Hot for teacher.
Close the door and stop panting like you're doing a porn film.
I can't.
I might.
I've got two glasses.
You're going to need a mask or something to put on
so you don't see which iron brew you're going to get.
I'll just pour my tea shot up.
No, because then I have to look at your fucking tummy.
Oh, no! I don't want to see your tum. Yeah, you'll see. I don to look at your fucking tummy. Oh, no!
I don't want to see your tum.
I don't want to see that tum.
That fucking...
You've got the tummy of a fucking cleft-chinned whale.
It's fine, but it's a horrible image.
I don't care.
My mouth fucking hurts.
I'm not going to be able to do this taste test.
I just took a picture. I do not share to be able to do this taste test. I just took a picture.
I do not share it.
I've got to share it.
If we get £100 million, I'll share it.
Paul, you're not allowed to share that.
Am I not?
I'm in charge of the show.
I do what I want.
Paul, please don't share that.
Fix the microphone and I won't share it.
Please don't share that.
All right, but put the microphone up and I won't share it.
I do this to fix it.
Look.
I know.
Fix the microphone and I won't share it. There's no trust. Honestly, I can't do the podcast anymore. You keep on but put the microphone up and I won't share it. I do this to fix it. Look. I know, fix the microphone and I won't share it.
There's no trust.
I honestly, I can't do the podcast anymore.
You keep on talking with the microphone at the wrong height,
so I am going to release it unless you do as I say,
as you can and say.
I can't.
If I can't trust you not to share that,
that's like revenge porn or whatever, Paul.
I want to see you delete that.
It's more like bum fights, isn't it?
I want to see you delete that photo in front of me.
I might well use it for myself, might I?
No, I want to see that.
I'm not going to continue with this unless you delete that in front of me now. You might well use it for myself, might I? No, I want to see that. I'm not going to continue with this
unless you delete that in front of me now.
You're not going to continue what with this podcast?
Yeah.
Fine.
I'm going to carry on drinking.
I'm going into your phone.
Okay, I'll delete it.
You'll click the timer.
I'll see you delete it.
Look, here we go.
Look, I'm deleting it.
Here we go.
Where's the photograph?
Right, there it is.
Oh, my God.
Delete it. Delete it my God. Delete.
Delete.
Delete.
Delete.
Move to bin.
Done.
Gone.
Happy?
Restore.
No.
I haven't done it.
Look, see?
It's right there.
Sadly for you, ladies and gentlemen, I will have to delete that from the record.
Honestly, that will ruin my reputation as a looker.
Fuck off, will it? Right. We're going to try both iron brews now. Thanks for deleting that, Paul. Honestly, that will ruin my reputation as a looker. Fuck off, will it?
Right, we're going to try both iron brews now.
Thanks for deleting that, Paul.
Well, no.
There are fans clamouring for it.
Well, they're going to hack into my phone
and reinstall the footage
and backdate the hard drive.
Listen, I'm sorry to be vain or whatever
or embarrassed about my body.
Call me Mr. Vain.
Call me insane.
Insane.
Come on.
Put your t-shirt
over your face
so I can use a different one
because you're just
taking another shot.
I'm like,
yeah,
I was definitely
going to do that.
Fuck that.
Right.
So,
we have the old iron brew
and the new iron brew.
Now,
is the,
oh,
do you think,
now,
the famous example of when this happened before
was with Coke.
The Coke and Pepsi wars,
which led to Coke bringing out a new Coke.
Well, that's what this is.
The 1901 is their quote-unquote original Iron Brew flavour.
But do you think...
Because there was an uproar
and people stopped piling original Iron Brew
and selling it on eBay and stuff.
But do you think...
Oh, dear.
He's on his first bottle of Desperado, guys.
So drink number three.
Now, do you think what happened with Coke
will happen with iron brew?
With Coke, new Coke just disappeared
after a couple of years
and the original became...
Yeah.
Classic, they used to call it
when it first came out
didn't they
do you think
classic iron brew
is going to overtake
no
that's the whole point
why do you think that
that's why they've made
this 1901
to make it a limited
edition thing
that they can sell
in limited quantities
which they don't have
to put too much effort in
and the bulk of it
still goes into
the original iron brew
yeah but that's what
Coke did
that's exactly what
happened with Coke
they said we'll do
Coke classic
we'll do Coke classic
and they phased out new Coke.
Yeah, but they're going to phase out new eyebrows.
No, they won't.
They won't.
No, they won't.
That's why this one's in a glass bottle
and it's got a different sticker on it.
It's like a luxury product.
That's what classic Coke was when they brought that out.
It could happen.
It just became normal Coke again.
Watch this space, is what I'm saying.
Watch this space.
Watch that space.
Don't do that.
He's giving me double birds and double Vs. That face space is what I'm saying. Watch this space. Watch that space. Don't do that. He's giving me
double birds
and double Vs.
That face,
that face,
fucking that space as well.
Now he's doing
the fist up the arse thing.
My space.
So you put a shirt on
and yeah,
then I can do these drinks.
Yes.
Calm down,
you aggy
and violent.
I'm keeping the energy up
because I hate
listening back to this podcast
and it's just Eli going,
well, in 1972, Ross McPherson,
why did you do this thing?
Ross McPherson?
You don't even know who that is.
I don't know who that is.
Because it's no one.
It's someone you've made up.
It doesn't matter.
You know what's going to go,
you know what's poking out for me
about this podcast so far?
My winky woo.
Your complete inability
to describe that thing
that you didn't even know
about banana flavour.
Which, honestly,
still plagued me now
what you fucking meant.
Right.
You put your fucking T-shirt on.
I have my blindfold on.
You're going to have to
redirect my mouth to the mic
if it goes...
You've got two...
I'm pouring the iron brews now
so you don't know, Eli,
which one is which.
I like iron brew
and I think I...
We're fans of it on the pod. Yeah.
But the
original is much nicer.
I think, I haven't had a good record recently
on Brand Off Brand Off
Paul.
I couldn't get the Aero, and I couldn't get the one
before that I couldn't get either. The thing is, with this
one, all I'm asking you to do, really, is see if you can
tell there's any noticeable difference between
the old and new, right? The old flavour
and the new. Yeah, I can tell you if I tell the difference and I'll tell you which
is which as well. That's what we do.
Why do you always try and simplify it?
There's more usually, isn't there? There's like three or four different things.
Okay, there's only two here. Yeah, I see what you mean. So it's an easier thing
but therefore I'm asking you not so much to make
a difficult decision. I'm more asking you to see if
there is an obvious flavour, which one's
better. Yeah, but I still need to identify which is which
as well. Yeah, so here's the first one.
Reach your hand out.
There you go, you got it.
Okay.
All right, he's having a snuff.
This is drink Iron Brew number one.
That's got a class for me.
It has a classic Iron Brew.
Iron Brew stench.
Yeah.
The stank is on point.
What is that stench?
Let me have a little sniff as well.
It's kind of fruity, slightly vanillary.
Yeah.
Slightly fruity, but in a kind of,
I don't know what that fruit is like.
It's the Iron Brew.
It's the flavour of Iron Brew.
Because Iron Brew, when we did it on this show.
Chewing gum.
Fake chewing gum.
Yes, it has that, definitely.
Like a Wrigley's...
Believe it or not.
A juicy fruit.
Wrigley's juicy fruit.
It's a bit reminiscent of, isn't it, as well?
Ripley's juicy fruit.
Yeah.
Wrigley's juicy fruit.
Wrigley's believe it or not, and Ripley's juicy fruit.
But when we did a little bit of a deep dive into iron brew,
we found that it was much older
than both of us expected.
It goes back to the early
20th century, doesn't it?
It was literally an iron brew
and then they changed the name
to iron brew
for the Scottish thing
to separate it up
from the American design
or whatever.
But iron brew still exists
as a sort of generic,
like cola,
like a generic sort of...
It's why you can get
iron brew,
sticky sweets
or chewy candies. It's a generic sort of flavour profile thing you can get iron brew sticky sweets or chewy candies
it's a generic sort of
flavour profile thing
that isn't copyrighted
yeah
so have a sip of that
it's your first one
just from the smell
I think this is going to be
the 1901
okay we'll have a sniff
oh 1901 I get it
that's when it came out
yes
good
Christ
he's having a sup
on the glass
what are your notes
what are your flavour notes
nice
yeah
nice he says yeah it's got that
feel of real sugar yeah yeah oh all right that's nice just tastes like enjoying it lovely that's
a nice soda it's a nice iron brew is often like forgotten about because it kind of be it can be
refreshing you put some ice in it nice if it's cold it needs to be cold can be sickly and i'm
getting that on the third sip i'm thinking thinking, oh, that is very sweet.
I call that the Pepsi effect.
Yeah.
Give us the glass back there.
I don't know, though.
Depending on...
There could be some artificiality there.
Well, how about I get you the second one then?
Yeah.
Put that one down in case you want to retest it
and sample them or whatever.
Do you want me to take it off?
Am I near the table?
No.
Oh, God.
I'm just taking it off you then.
Thank you, if you could.
And here is drink number two.
All right, careful.
All right.
Drink number two.
He's having a snuff of this.
And the reaction is a little bit nonplussed at the moment.
That is just orangey, much orangier than the first one.
Less amplitude, less going on with the smell almost.
Okay. But more... less going on with the smell almost. Okay.
But more...
Less going on.
More orange, more just one note,
which is I'm getting a sort of orange.
There's the orange oil sort of smell, you know?
Like an orange peel smell from this one.
Okay.
Rather than the Wrigley's.
Maybe that was the...
Go on, what do you think it is?
I've got to taste it.
You've got to taste it now.
Forget the Mike Back expert that's just flown into the room again. I've got to taste it you've got to taste it now forget the mic back expert
that's just flown into the room again
I've got a question
no we haven't got a question
what
I've interrupted your flow
yeah we're still recording
I just have to taste this
sorry
and we're doing it real time
so now you're in the episode
you're so in this episode
yeah
just taste it
okay
you're getting annoyed
fucking do it
right he's testing this one
and what's he thinking?
What's his taste flavour notes?
Usually I'd cut all this fucking shit out,
but this is a real-time episode.
I can't tell.
Really?
Can I have the other one?
Yeah.
This is number one.
I'm giving you it now.
Right, he's testing.
That's number one.
And number two.
It's a tough one, this, isn't it?
Is it?
I don't know.
I think number one is the 1901,
and number two is the modern equivalent.
Eli, you are wrong.
It's the other way around.
The first one is the uh current uh traditional iron brew pop
and the second one you had is the iron brew 1901 a very special vintage yeah it's oh now you're
changing your mind to agree with yourself all of a sudden it's got less it's less strong less strong
the 1901 in what way in what ways is it less strong it's less sweet less sweet
and now I'm
now I'm thinking
now I know
the first one
does have a kind of
sweeter than sugar
the way that those
sweeteners can be
do you know what I mean
they boost the flavour
almost
they're super sweet
but
having said that
I think I might prefer
the new one
you do prefer
the new one
to the 1901
yeah I think so
oh dear it's not the result I wanted to hear and I'm sure a lot of our listeners are going to be disappointed the new one. You do prefer the new one to the 1901? Yeah, I think so.
Oh dear.
It's not the result I wanted to hear
and I'm sure a lot of our listeners
are going to be disappointed.
I'm sorry everybody
but I do think
that's nicer actually.
Well, I'm not here to judge.
Only you are.
It's flatter.
The old stuff
is more subdued.
Really?
Yeah.
No!
More one note,
more one orangey.
So I think they've done a
good job in updating and you know they've obviously taken some time some care to actually
um update that yeah oh i'm so disappointed that i couldn't tell the difference though i thought
i should have thought about it for a minute yeah maybe but they just rushed in with well we're
doing a rushed episode aren't we we are so everyone. Eli's a shit cunt. Next.
Excuse me!
Eli.
I'm just going to write that down, by the way.
Right, Mike Batman
has a...
Mike Batman.
It's a cunt.
The markers.
Yeah, I've got them
on my table.
Right.
Can you just give me
one second?
One second, no.
We're going to keep on going.
We've got 40 minutes
left of this episode.
We're doing it real time.
Well, get it ready.
Get it out the sink.
It's all ready to go.
I need the marker to do this.
Right, I'm just going to cross off.
Soda off brand iron brew.
That's done.
And Eli was talking about how I have to bring back brand off.
You've got to bring back brand off.
Well, we've forgotten about that now
because the Mike Platt expert has actually thrown that thought off kilter.
So I'm just going to crack on what we're going to do next.
I don't really want to do platter.
Fuck Eli and his platter.
That's it?
We're going to do...
No, we're doing...
Close the door.
Christ.
I'm sorry I let everyone down.
We're doing a Ganon's Golden Games.
What did you think of those two?
You know what?
When I tasted them both,
Iron Brew has the stronger flavour profile.
The modern bottle. It does. It's stronger, isn't it? stronger flavour profile. The original, the modern bottle.
It does.
It's stronger, isn't it?
If I say plastic and glass,
that probably breaks it up.
The plastic Iron Brew
had a stronger profile.
But I think you can taste
the lack of artificiality
in the original.
Yes.
And it's just a little bit more syrupy.
The original is.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
I did a bit of a sick in my mouth.
Yeah, but definitely, because it's not a diet version.
It's just a new version, isn't it?
It's just with the real sugars in and the thing.
Yeah.
It's nice.
I liked it.
Rhiannon, thank you very much for bringing that.
Thank you very much.
I like both of them.
But I guess I'm not a big iron brew drinker.
Do you know what I mean?
And I guess if you're used to one.
Yeah.
But for me, the new, the plastic still tastes pretty good still. Do you know what I mean? And I guess if you're used to one. Yeah. But for me,
the new,
the plastic still tastes pretty good still.
Do you know what I mean?
Yeah.
Both are fine.
Both good.
But I mean,
not that different.
Noticeably different.
But I do know some people
who can't drink the new Iron Brew
who were fans of Iron Brew
because they're allergic to the aspartame.
Oh, right.
Yeah.
Well, there's a product for them now.
There's a product for them.
The 1901 is here for you.
But I'm generally quite impressed.
Fair enough.
With how they recreated it.
And it's got a good flavour, the new stuff, the plastic stuff.
Anyway.
So it's a Ganon's Golden Games now.
Oh, I'll do the thing.
Go on, quick.
Hey, where are you going?
This is Ganon.
He's got games.
What are you going to do with him?
He's got a golden game. Oh, he's got games what's he going to do with them he's got games
he's got games
he's got games
here I am
here I am
a cheerio
a cheerio
cannon's golden
cannon's golden
where is he
he's coming round
he's got games
he's got games
he's got games
he's coming round
he's got games
he's got games
I kept it quick for you there.
I've run out of fucking things to say to you.
You've run out of things to say.
You clocked out from this episode before you started
and you've run out of things to say.
Well, I haven't run out of things to say to you, Paul.
And one of the things I want to say to you is,
what is...
Today, it came in the box
from Chris last week
of all the Japanese snacks
and things like that.
Lovely.
There's a few toys in.
Are there still any of those left?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We're going to go back to those
after 300.
Mate, I finished off those
seafood chocolate biscuits.
Seafood animals.
Yeah, the animal chocolate biscuits.
Fucking hell.
Nice.
They were really good.
Proper nice.
They were proper, proper good.
Proper nice.
Unlike the Katsu fucking fish cake
artificial hand-flavored Katsu stick.
Fanny Tongue's meat stick
or whatever it was called.
This is called Dolly Battle.
Dolly Battle.
Because they're little dollies.
Yeah, and they're having a battle.
It's basically a Rock'em Sock'em Robots.
A little mini Rock'em Sock'em Robots.
Paul, I'm looking over and the whole sort of pink with the dots design of one of them is reminding me of a certain thing.
A penis.
Mr. Blobby.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah?
You're getting it.
You're getting a Mr. Blobby vibe off one of them.
I also am getting a penis vibe off them as well.
You get a penis vibe off everything.
Yeah, I do.
Excluding.
Excluding your penis.
Excluding.
Excluding. Excluding.
In my penis.
My penis.
Ensconced inside my penis.
So what does it say on the back?
One, press the button to hit your opponent.
Two, the first to fly off wins.
Eh?
The first to fly off.
No, it's got it wrong.
Oh, the first to fly off loses.
So you press these little buttons at the back
and these little knobbly head men hit each other
with their hammers.
With their coloured hammers.
And then eventually one of their heads pops off.
I'm just going to have a little go.
No, don't.
Oi!
It popped off.
We're meant to go against each other, you twats.
How is that a Ganon's Golden Game?
It's not a game if you just...
That's Ganon's Golden Demonstration.
It's Ganon's birthday golden game demonstration game birthday.
Fine, I'll just sit here
rubbing my nub nubs.
Go on then, I'll watch it.
I'm not...
You fucking touched it
for a second.
I saw it.
You reached down.
I want it more.
It's my birthday.
I wanted to play a game
but you've ruined it for me now.
Do you want to play my...
It's like Thumb Wars this actually.
Do you want to have a go?
Can we have a go, please?
Who do you want to be?
Do you want to be pink tip
or yellow tip, man?
I'll be the Mr Blobby.
The pink tip. Who has polka dots on his thing be the Mr. Blobby. The pink tip.
Who has polka dots on his thing, very reminiscent of Blobby.
I'm going off mic.
Right, here we go.
Oh, shit.
Right, you've just got to whack it.
Why don't we hold it in the air?
Don't we put it on the table?
No, because it'll bang if we put it on the table.
Fucking hell, you can't do anything properly.
This is stupid.
Ready, three, two, one.
Yay, I win
You did win
That's a piece of shit
That's terrible
Best out of three
It's not got much fucking skill or strategy or anything
You know what it is?
It's because your fat thumbs can't fucking press down on it hard enough
Because there's so much squodge on your thumb
Before it hits muscle or bone
Oh, fuck off
There's no fucking way that it will make any
Paul
You have trouble with touch screen phone faces.
You have a problem
with language?
Yes, you fucking do.
Do you bibble?
I'm boppily bibble.
You mangle it.
Now, Paul,
before...
One, two, three.
Oh, that was a draw.
All right, best of three.
This is the last one.
Well, then it'll be
a draw overall
if I win this one.
No, if I win this one no if you if I win this one
you win
but if I win
it's a draw
then we'll do
golden goal
okay
I'll say
I'll count it down this time
three
two
one
it's a draw
no I'm gonna concede
I think you won that
I think my yellow tip
popped off
before your pink tip
popped off
and
I know a popped off
pink tip when I see one.
Well, we've drawn then overall.
No, you won.
You got the best of three.
No, you won.
You got best of three.
Because it was me win,
and then a draw,
and then you won.
Okay, we drew then.
It's go and goal.
Let's do one more then.
All right.
My yellow tip won't go back on.
Don't break it.
All right, now it's on.
This is a nice little thing, this.
It's a nice little doodad.
It's not exactly fun, though, is it?
I mean, you'd play with it once,
but the design is quite pleasing.
You want to count it?
Three, two, one.
You came straight off.
Yeah.
I win.
Yeah, I came straight off.
It's Gannis Golden Games.
It's Gannis Golden Games.
I popped his knob right off.
It's Gannis Golden Games.
And I've come now
I should have thought
of something much
better than that
you never do
you never think of
anything else
mate there's only
seven minutes left
we've got to do the
record
nah fuck that
what do you mean
nah fuck that
because I want to
do this
I still want to do
this
we've got to do
the platters
hello Paul and Eli
I don't know if you
ever covered the
joke shot by post
in the cheap show
back catalogue at
any point,
but I think you get a kick out of it
on Paul's page turners, and we do.
Love the show.
Keep it up.
John Hickman.
Thank you, John.
This is a, I think, late 80s.
I'm going to narrow this down to 88, 89.
Really?
Yeah.
It seems earlier.
No, because the act's featured in it.
Because there's adverts for pop stars,
and some of them are like Jason Donovan,
Kyman Ogue,
and that wouldn't have kicked off
until 88, 89 at all.
Stop checking your phone.
Don't be unprofessional.
Don't be unprofessional.
Don't be unprofessional.
He says, after fucking that banana outburst.
Don't be unprofessional.
He says, drinking the worst possible drink.
Don't be unprofessional.
Desperado.
Desperado.
Have you seen they do energy, boozy energy drinks? I'm not drinking that shit. Mate, that's a great... is drinking the worst possible drink. Don't be unprofessional. Desperado. I want to...
Have you seen they do energy,
boozy energy drinks?
I'm not drinking that shit.
Mate, that's a great...
You know what we need to test as well?
What?
Lucas Aid are doing big can energy drinks
a la Monster.
We need to taste them.
Yeah, they're popping up everywhere.
That sounds horrible to me.
I know, but we need to taste them.
Monster is horrible to me.
I hate Monster.
How many different types of Monster are there? I don't even... I don't care because... Right, there's so many of them. Because Monster is horrible to me. I hate Monster. How many different types of Monster are there?
I don't even, I don't care because, right, there's so many of them.
It's like Mav and Jew.
It's like, what is that brand anymore?
When it's any old muck.
It's muck.
Muck.
So this is Joke Shop by Post.
This is a magazine that you would get sent to order pranks and jokes.
You know, like fake poos and things.
And this magazine is full of them by a company called Match Right.
The funny business.
Ooh.
The bargain place for lots of fun.
Hello, Joker.
Hello.
Welcome to Britain's number one collection.
Write down jokes and novelties required on easy-to-use order forms.
We will send you a catalogue with your goodies.
Here's my favourite bit of the whole mag, though.
Let me just go to it on that page.
What does it say?
There's a whole thing about it.
It's like it turns it into a pyramid scheme
where it effectively says...
Oh, yeah, this is what it says.
You sell it onto your friends.
You buy a bunch and then sell it to them.
Do a friend a favour.
Send us names of your friends
so we can send them a catalogue, too.
There's space on the form to fill out
and give them their information.
Well, that's not exactly an MLM
because if it said,
you need to buy a load of stock
and then recruit others, you know.
It is, but it's kind of like Avon.
It's like, oh yeah, I've put my name,
I've put Gary down and Steve in
because I think they'd love this.
Yeah, I'm not saying it's a totally sort of legit
and sort of morally astute thing to do,
but it's not exactly a pyramid scheme.
No, well, all right, fair enough.
Free gift.
Spot the mistake.
Somewhere in this catalogue, we have made a deliberate mistake.
Tell us what it is, and we will send you a free gift.
Oh, I wonder what that is.
I don't know.
It's probably like a spelling mistake.
But that's, I mean...
What do you think is it?
Have a look at the magazine and pick out something you'd like.
Because I like all this shit.
This is the stuff you can get in like men's kind or you know
home and bargain
these days
oh I see it is late 80s
because you've got
a smiley face thing here
acid
which is reminiscent
of that
so it must be
88, 89
yeah
it's definitely 89
this kind of joke shop stuff
it's definitely 89
because there's a
Batman pin in there
as well
because that's the
summer of 89
so yeah
and there's a
portable
water squirt
portable phone
which is a mobile phone
yeah
obviously that was
just coming through
when phones were as big
as your fucking
forearm
just coming through
but these kind of
joke shop
items
go way back
to the 60s right
oh yeah
blackface soap
and
you know
whatever
itching powder
and a chewing gum
kaleidoscope
I used to have Wrigley's remember you used to have like legit Wrigley's wrapper but it had a little mousetrap you know, whatever. Itching powder. And the chewing gum. Kaleidoscope black eye.
I used to have Wrigley's.
Remember you'd have like
legit Wrigley's wrapper
but it had a little
mousetrap contraption in.
They have them in there.
The finger snappers.
Finger snappers.
Chewing gum finger snappers.
And the squirty one as well.
You know where you squirt
the water at them when they...
Did you mention the ice cube
with a fly in it?
Yeah, that's in there.
I mean, I bet all the classics
are in there.
I used to love them.
I loved them too.
Remember stink bombs? Yeah. They were glass. I used to love them. I loved them too. Remember stink bombs?
Yeah.
They were glass.
I got into trouble because I smashed a load of them up in the boys' toilets once at school.
Did you? Yeah, yeah.
And I was told off, not because of the smell, but because of the glass.
It's terrible.
Yeah, it is terrible.
They don't do those anymore, do they?
Also, a friend of mine at school tried to break one and eat it,
because he used to smack the tip off.
Oh, wow.
Yeah, he was violently sick all over himself like you know like when you see like a chemical reaction happen where you put
a droplet something in and it foams up it was like he took a drink and then the sick came out
almost yeah yeah yeah oh my word like a baby sick i wonder when they were finally completely banned
are they banned are they in here i don't know i haven't had a proper look there's a few things
in there that i'm confused by, like hairy hand horror glove.
It's like, what are you going to do with that?
Are you going to just walk around with a crap horror glove?
Fagin's finger.
What's Fagin's finger?
I've got a terrible case of it.
Fagin's finger.
I was putting it on my arse.
I gave my girlfriend the Fagin's finger last night.
Got to pick a pocket or two, boy.
You got to pick a pocket or two.
He does look, it's a little, little Jewish
stereotype.
Typical Fagin.
Is it?
In a hat with a beard
and a big hooked nose.
Christ,
great stuff.
This is great.
No,
that's not.
I mean,
that particular thing
is actually horrible.
That's not great.
Pituated stereotype.
Just the whole,
I'm transported back
to a world of
pure imagination.
You know what I love
about it though?
There was some guy whose job it was to sit down
look at the list of items that were on sale and make
tiny little drawings and animations or
cartoon strips about them, you know?
Each one had a little story.
And also, some of them are quite kinky.
In there there's like handcuffs and
French maid outfit. Is there?
Yeah, there's a French maid outfit underneath
Elephant Man outfit. What? Which isn't
like John Merrick. It's like literally just big ears and a trunk. Well, that's not Elephant Man, there's a French maid outfit underneath elephant man outfit. What? Which isn't like John Merrick.
It's like literally just big ears and a trunk.
Well, that's not elephant man.
That's elephant.
No, it's the elephant man.
That's what they call it because it's an elephant and a man.
Not the elephant man.
Cigarette burn.
Fake cigarette burn.
Yeah.
Did you ever use these genuinely?
Did you ever get like a cracked glass sticker that you could put on a window?
I think I did the, I once did the black face soap.
Oh, dear.
On someone. Did you? Which is dirty. I should explain to people who don't know. on a window I think I did the I once did the black face soap oh dear on someone
did you
which is dirty
I should explain
to people who don't know
it's got nothing to do
with blacking up
or anything
I mean it kind of
does though
no
it's soap
which has sort of
a pocket of
like dye in it
or something
yeah of sooty dye
or something
so you go to
wash your hands
or your face
and you get
it kind of does
mate there's
pick something fun
we're running out of time
plate lifters
we've got 40 seconds left
that's how you
fucking want to end this
really that's how
you want to end this
there's lots of things
we could have gone
there's fun badges
30 seconds left
my bum's imperfect
it's got a hole in it
my god
that is actually
a really good one
to end on
no poll tax
yeah so that's 89 definitely it's funny this is for kids and it on. No poll tax. Yeah, so that's 89, definitely.
It's funny.
This is for kids and it's got no poll tax there.
Yeah, because the kid's going to have no fucking clue what that is.
That's funny, isn't it?
It's got a bit of a subversive, counter-cultural edge to it.
Yeah, but in the same way, like, it has where's the beef or whatever.
It's nonsensical.
No poll tax.
You can get a badge that says no poll.
No polltus.
What does it say?
No polltus badge. It doesn't. Don't use the sacred word of polltus in vain. What about a prank polltus that poultice. What does it say? No poultice badge.
Don't use the sacred word of poultice in vain.
What about a prank poultice that you put in and it foams up and makes you blow his plan?
I'm afraid we're going to have to stop talking about this now, Paul, because we're out of time.
Is it?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah, we're out of time.
That's the episode over.
You know what, Eli?
We'll come back to this magazine, I think.
We can definitely mine some more complete nonsense out of this. We'll come back to this.
But right now, as of right now, the
show
is over! It's over!
And that's the end of Cheap Show this week.
Paul, I'm just getting a... Yeah? I'm just getting a...
What? An idea to do something shit?
No, no, no. It looks like, in your eyes,
it looks like you've got an idea to do something shit right now.
I'm just going to let him in, okay? Yeah, go on. Oh, dear, you knocked over your fucking fat-handed twat, Mc, no. It looks like, in your eyes, it looks like you've got an idea to do something shit right now. I'm just going to let him in, okay?
Yeah, go on.
Oh, dear, you knocked over your fucking fat-handed twat,
my bill.
Oh, shit.
Right, right, where is he?
Right, where are you?
Right, just sit here, shall I?
Hey, Brandoff, it's my birthday.
Right, Paul.
Can I piss in your face? I'm about to pick with you, Ruff Ruff. Can I piss in your face? I've got a bone to pick with you.
Can I piss in your face?
No.
I've got a bone to pick with you, right?
Yeah, it's a big bone.
Right, you did a...
I'm off, Brandoff.
That's my segment.
Yeah.
I need payment and I need...
Mate, you're not on the books anymore.
Ruff, ruff.
You're not on the books anymore.
Right, I'm off.
You'll just be warning.
I'm watching you.
Whenever you use copyright material.
Ruff, ruff, ruff.
Also, out of interest, just so you know,
Carol got in touch with us the other day
saying she was looking for a job,
and we've hired her.
To do what?
Piss on your seats?
Piss on upholstery?
Piss on the curtains?
She's doing admin.
Piss in chairs?
Piss standing on chairs?
No piss.
Piss all over?
Piss, piss, piss, piss, piss, piss, piss.
Because she's piss all over.
No, she's doing the admin for the CCC club.
Fine, what she does in her free time is fine,
as long as she's drinking a lot of water.
Yeah, she's looking after Andre Brandovsky.
As long as she's eating asparagus three times a morning.
No, she's not.
She's now eating lots of roughage because Andrei Brandovsky likes scat.
Who's this Brandovsky?
Brandovsky is part of the CCC group.
What's in there?
It looks like Fort Knox in there.
Yeah, we can't go in.
There's all the knock-off characters in there.
There's a bloody great gate
and there's some kind of guard.
He looks like he's armed.
You know what?
Also, I just want to put a pin in this
because this has nothing to do with episode 300.
So, fuck off.
Right, well, just watch it, you.
You need to get someone to look at that.
I mean, you know, it's your own podcast.
I mean, I know.
I've had my troubles with you.
I don't know what's going on in there.
Brandovsky, he's...
If you give me a kiss right now,
I'll pay you double what we usually used to pay
for a Brandov segment.
Richard Brandov doesn't do that.
You know?
What if I give you a kiss?
Give me a little kiss on my birthday.
Give me a little kiss on my birthday.
I'll be in touch.
I can't deal with this.
Give me a little kiss on my birthday.
All right, Richard, yes.
And I'll pay you double for Brandoff.
I'm off.
Rough, rough.
I'll pay you treble.
You're desperate.
I know you and Jimmy Biscuits are living in Squalor.
We are not.
I know you're living in Squalor.
I did the dishes.
No, you're not.
I did the dishes this morning.
Jimmy had a little sweep up.
As a result, I know for a fact...
We're arts criminals, I'll have you know.
As a result, I know you're desperate for cash,
so give me kissy, kissy, kissy.
You wouldn't.
You never pay me anyway.
Ruff, ruff.
I wouldn't...
Listen, just tell Carol to keep on the asparagus, okay?
All right, well, she's on right now the all-brand diet
and she's laying some heavy cable.
I know that for a fact.
That's fine. If she poos in her own time, as long as she saves the wee-brand diet, and she's laying some heavy cable. I know that for a fact. That's fine.
If she poos in her own time,
as long as she saves the wee-wee for my cars.
All right, okay.
I'm going.
Bye, Brandoff.
Bye-bye, Ruff Ruff.
Ruff Ruff, Brandoff.
Ruff.
Is it this way?
Ruff Ruff.
Yes, you know where it is.
Look at it.
Ruff.
Ruff Ruff.
Oh, dear.
Bye, then.
Right, well, I've...
Oh, he is gone.
So...
He's all right, isn't he?
Yeah.
Richard Brandoff.
So, look... But, Paul, you should tell him if you're going to do a Brandoff-Ruff brand, because, you Oh, he is gone So He's alright, isn't he? Yeah Richard Brandoff So look
But Paul, you should tell him
If you're going to do a Brandoff
Off-brand
Because, you know, he always
Not really
He's not on the books anymore
So it doesn't
What do you mean he's not on the books?
He's not on the books
What books?
He's not legally
Part of Cheap Show anymore
He's on the run
He shouldn't be here
Him and Jimmy Biscuit's
Living in a fucking hovel
In Denmark
I think they're just down the road
It's not Denmark
It is Denmark
They say it's Denmark
For tax purposes
Yeah, but they don't also do any of that It's just around the road, man They're just down the road That It's not Denmark. It is Denmark. They say it's Denmark for tax purposes. Yeah, but they don't also do any of that.
It's just around the road, man.
They're just down the road.
That's why he just pops on you.
They're living in a tent on the roundabout.
I know for a fact I've seen them.
I've heard Jimmy Biscuits go in.
I don't like the noise like that.
He doesn't deal with noise very well, does he?
But he does piss on the top of the tent
so Brandov can sleep at night.
I don't think so.
Because he hears the tipper, tipper, tapper,
tipper, tapper of the piddle on the tent
on the canvas pond piddle on tent.
Pond piddle on tent, Eli.
How about that, Fred Tenton?
Pond piddle on tent.
Oh, it's episode 300 next week, Paul.
It is. You know what?
Have you been reading that book
about becoming a ghost?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah, that's good.
Yeah, that's a plot point
that I thought I'd put more effort into
and it just didn't work out.
How's that been going, reading that? Do you think you're an expert now? Well, okay, so's good. Yeah, that's a plot point that I thought I'd put more effort into, and it just didn't work out. How's that been going, reading that?
Do you think you're an expert now?
Well, okay, so I've done the rituals.
I've done the sacrifices.
What did you sacrifice?
As far as I'm aware.
You don't need to know about this.
Your dignity every week on this show.
You are correct.
So, yeah, I've been doing that.
And basically, all I've discovered is,
if the worst happened to me, I can been doing that. And basically, all I've discovered is, if the worst happened to me,
I can upload myself into an electronic system
and then become part of that system.
I see.
Like a kind of ghost, almost.
In the machine.
A ghost in the machine, so to speak.
So to speak.
So to speak.
If you will.
And that's going to be a plot point.
It certainly is.
Look, anyway, look.
Let's wrap this up. Let's wrap this up. plot point it certainly is look anyway look let's let's let's
let's let's wrap this up let's wrap this up okay next week is episode 300 we recorded it a few
weeks ago in harrow art center it was a wonderful and beautiful event for us both a real lot of fun
a lot of fun we've also just looked oh i've seen, the live show footage. Just a quick note, we did have three cameras, Eli,
and someone sat right in front of the third.
So as a result, the live show comes from two camera angles,
but actually perfectly fine.
I don't think it looked too bad.
No, not at all.
So here's the plan.
Well filmed.
If you're a patron, patreon.com forward slash cheap show

and I just want to say again
we said it a lot,
but thank you to everyone who came.
I know it was a massive ball lake with the heat wave and the rail strike,
but to see an almost packed house.
It was fantastic.
And they all got into it.
And the show went beautifully.
Moments before we started,
we were both very worried,
very sort of just kind of,
we were kind of resigned to maybe it being a bit of underwhelming uh turnout
but it was not at all it was not at all it was it went off like fire kindling yeah no it was a
beautiful event and it kind of i i couldn't express it on the night because you know everything's
happening and my brain's trying to keep the show on keep going and all and being like producer mode
or whatever yeah but like i i can't explain just how wonderful it was to have that many people
there at our show

thing and I honestly
think 300 is a
podcast.

No, you can't! Yes, I can. Can you do that?
Quickly, though. Can you do that? Like this?
Like this? Like that? Fingers.
Can you do it this quickly, though? Looks like

at a door to try and get in.
It's like... Right, we'll do dexterity
fucking test. How are we going to do it,ity. How are we going to do it then?
How are we going to do it?
How are you going to turn... Cards and chips and stuff.
Oh, cards and chips,
something that you do anyway
because of your poker nights.
Shut the fuck up.
Yeah, so let's do something that,
you know, I don't know,
something that...
This is doing the Spock thing.
How about we do a magic trick?
A magic trick
that involves dexterity
and palming and finger work, eh?
How about that?
Oh, my finger work's good.
That's not a lie, I've heard from all your ex-girlfriends.
Oh, you talk to them.
You call up my ex-girlfriends and go,
what's he like with his fingers?
I talk to both of them.
Yeah.
And they both went,
it was like being fingered by a bunch of fucking ribs.
Oh, I don't know what that meant.
Weird.
Can we go now?
I'm going to think of something better.
No, you won't.
It's like being fingered
by a pack of sausages

by a bouncy castle
