Hey, I'm not doing it for Dan.
I'm not doing it for Carl.
I'm doing it for Finn.
Every day.
Who the fuck is that guy?
Char, upset me, nasty bitch.
Oh, Jesus.
Don't chat to me!

Shut up!
Disgusting!
Coming to you from the soon-to-be world-famous Havawad Studios.
Hidden away in the scenic hills of sunny Runcorn, England.
These are the funniest leads in the podcast game.
Adam Rowe, Dan Nightingale and Sensei Carl
with full HD video episodes on YouTube.
It has to be.
Have a word. 101?
101.
We're officially
into our second
century of episodes
yeah
yeah
like a fucking
sick batsman
at the cricket
sick batsman
that was so
much more gangster
than cricket ever is
he's a fucking
bad boy opening
batsman lad
yeah
takes a fucking
new ball
and smashes it
you've been into cricket
you don't give off a cricket vibe.
But now I've found out you're in a chess club,
things are changing.
Yeah, I was in a chess club and I liked...
I think it might have been 2006, there was Ashes.
Yeah, Ashes.
It was one that we... Was it 2006?
Yeah, it was, yeah.
Flintoff, Peterson.
Oh, no, 2004, wasn't it?
It was around that time.
I used to play cricket in my front
2004 I think
Because I was doing big value that year
In Edinburgh
I was doing me year 9 sats
Yeah
Dan's really old
I got into it that year
Yeah but I was smashing posts What were you doing?
I mean I did actually have sex at Fringe
Did you?
Yes
Yeah
Back in the day when Dan was a shagger
No I
I really got into it that year
But I've never really
Like
It's just the fact that they can play for like three weeks
And then go
Ah it was a draw
Like that just does my head in
Three weeks
Yeah
They can't know if it gets rained off enough
No It has to rain after
five days. Yeah, it's just five days.
Five days. Well, alright, potato, potato.
Okay, good.
Three weeks, five days. I don't think Adam would have been a great
accountant, would he?
You've written down £200,000, but where's the
£1.2 million? Potato, potato!
Numbers, numbers, numbers!
Numbers!
No, it's a bit of a I mean it is the ultimate
fucking Tory fest isn't it
like
yeah I'd love to just take
like a bottle of fucking
sours
and some fucking stella
to the cricket
and just get it
you know singing like
it does go off
oh it made me get
an absolute shit face
Bondi's not bothered
about any sport
my best mate from school
Bondi
he was in the rugby team,
couldn't have given a fuck, he was just a big lad,
and they were like, you could be a prop,
which is basically just a grammar school way of going,
you're a fat bastard who can run.
So he was never bothered about sport, but just got forced into it.
Went to uni, he'd done dentistry, became mates with a load of Asian lads
because there's loads of Asian lads ended up on his dentistry course.
Asian people love a tooth.
Yeah, they love a tooth.
It's a fact.
They also have parents
pressuring them into proper careers.
And they went to the cricket at Edgbaston
and Bondi's got no interest.
And he was like,
oh, his mate Sheep's bought him a ticket.
And he literally never stopped talking about it.
He was like, it's fucking brilliant.
You're allowed to get shit-faced from 11.
And then by three o'clock,
the sun's baking,
you're in a stand with no cover,
just absolutely hammered.
Bonnie was like,
I couldn't get a word out of him about the game.
He was like,
I don't know.
But at one point,
there was a guy collecting plastic glasses
and carrying them around,
and we were all cheering him.
So that's all he was entertained by, getting shit-faced in the sun and watching dickers go i've got 200 and then dropping
them like the darts you know the darts is the same yeah yeah oh i tell you what lads i'd love to go
i would love to go alley pally for the dark yeah yeah what is it chelsea dagger isn't it Chelsea Chelsea you gotta go that's what I was gonna go
no
it's both
hang on
which one
which one's the more famous
your one
Dan's is the more famous one
shut up
just like that
Dan yours is the famous one
the one I love it Just like that. And yours is the famous one.
The working class.
I love it.
What?
That's just a fucking working class.
Yeah.
It's a proper working class.
Get in there.
Get the fucking alley pelly.
No one's from Muswell Hill.
Get the fucking tube.
Get shit faced.
Yeah, I love it.
Do you like darts?
Do you like playing it?
Oh, I love a bit of darts.
I was raised on darts, boy.
I had a fucking arrow in my hand at fucking one and a half.
Oi!
I got my first 180 before I was out of fucking nappies, boy.
Do you like darts?
I shit darts, boy.
You look at me, you say, do you like darts, Dan?
I fucking shit darts yeah my hag
it's quite fun isn't it
everything's fun
when you're pissed
let's be honest
any sport
cricket
on
like
if all four of us went
and we weren't allowed to drink
and the weather wasn't good
we'd be like
yeah cricket's fucking dull
isn't it
goes on for three weeks
if we were hammered
in a stand
and it was sunny
and Finn's trying to do
fucking
go on Finn do a fucking was sunny and Finn's trying to do fucking, go on Finn,
do a fucking glass thing.
Yay!
Finn's falling over!
Yay!
If we were shit-faced
at the darts,
it would be fucking quality.
Yeah,
but like,
I'd also want to keep
an eye on the score
and I genuinely mean
it wouldn't all be about the fun.
Right,
so I'll tell you what,
I'll get the apple sours lined up
and you can be there with your,
ooh.
What isn't fun,
drunk?
Ice fishing.
I reckon that's better.
It's so better than ice fishing.
Tell you what I watched.
Where did that come from?
I'll tell you what I watched the other day.
I don't know exactly what it's called.
There we go.
You know in poker, people have got tells.
Adam's bullshit tell is when he starts and you're like,
oh, Adam's just telling, and then he goes...
Because he's laughing at the shit he's just made up in his head.
No, no, I haven't.
I swear to God.
Go on, then.
You tell me, boy.
No, it's like...
They've got skis on.
But they look like squirrels
when they jump out of a tree
like they go like down
are you like Eddie the Eagle
yeah like
is it
is it base jumping
no
when they go down
they go down
and then they like fly off
and like they put the skis on
I want to say the long jump
but that's
Eddie the Eagle
ski jump
is it just ski jump
oh mate
I watched that the other morning
erm
for a few hours and it was yeah a few other morning For a few hours
And it was
A few hours
Literally for a few hours
Yeah
And then they did another one
Where it was like
Skiing down a hill
But you've got like
There's flags
And you've got to hit them
It's like checkpoints
Yeah you don't have to hit them
You've just got to go between them
Yeah but if you hit them
Oh they thought I was trying
As best as I could
Yeah no but
That's the slalom
Yeah
Yeah that's it
They're just trying They've got to go round it,
but to obviously get down the hill quickest,
you've got to go the least distance.
I mean, so they bang into them.
They don't have to.
If you're a spanner, you can be like, hey.
I was just watching it.
I thought it looked quite easy.
Yeah.
You can't snowboard?
No.
Not that one. That one looked, you know, more difficult. The flying No. Not that one.
That one looked more difficult.
The flying one?
The jump one.
You know what I mean?
You just fucking...
Yeah.
I mean, you end up in the same place, don't you?
You're getting down one way.
Here comes Adam Rowe.
All you can hear.
There'd be like a load of...
They do the little bell, don't they?
They're like,
and then all you'd hear,
the whole crowd would be like,
and then it'd just hear,
ta-da!
You'd break both legs.
Oh my God.
But like,
nobody doesn't believe you would.
They'd be like, no.
They don't like push themselves down or anything.
They literally just let the hill do the work for them.
Gravity does it.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, you're right for them. Gravity does it. Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, you're right.
Yeah.
You're right.
Yeah.
There's almost no skill.
The hill's doing all the work.
Ta-da!
Can we go?
I honestly don't understand.
Because I heard the commentators going,
they trained for years for this.
And I was like, doing what?
All they can possibly do is just have another go and hope for the best.
Do you know what I mean?
Can we go skiing?
The hill is so steep.
Yeah.
And as they're coming down, like, they're falling with the hill for a long way.
It's not like it's flat and they just have to fucking work it out.
So as they come down, the skill is to, like, let your skis touch
and then get your balance.
But you're, like...
It's conquering the fear as well.
Like, tobogganing's not hard. No, but, like, they've got your skis touch and then get your balance. But you're like... It's confident in the fear as well. Like, tobogganing's not hard.
No, but, like, they've got massive skis.
Like, it's not like they're trying to land on their feet.
They're trying to land on, essentially, big planks of wood.
It helps, doesn't it?
Yeah, it does help.
Yeah.
Because if you did it without, it'd be harder.
Yeah.
Yeah.
If you just went down in your slippers, that's a different event, isn't it?
Like, if you want to make it more challenging, make them wear ice skates.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And make them land on ice instead of snow. Yeah, yeah. Do you know what I mean? Because, like, isn't it? I just think if you want to make it more challenging, make them wear ice skates. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And make them land on ice instead of snow.
Yeah, yeah.
Do you know what I mean?
Because they do it in ice skating.
Are we talking about watching it or doing it?
Oh, you want to do it.
I just want to get shit-faced and watch something.
Adam's like, I want to get up there.
When you go to...
I won an Olympic medal.
The Olympic pool in Edinburgh.
Did you ever go swimming when you were at the Fringe?
They've got those...
You know, not all swimming baths
have got them
but if you go to an Olympia
like
the only one I've ever been to
is at Edinburgh
and they've got the diving boards
yeah
where you're like
you can basically
the size of a
I've been off the top one yeah
yeah
you fucking haven't
I have
into the shallow end as well
you wear ice skates for that one
fucking too easy to speed those lads
no I didn't
I went up another go
You never
I did
I did
You never
There was no fucking person by the ladder
So I just got up and I just jumped off
He'd had a bad review that morning
Fuck you JT
Didn't you break the world record?
No
I just jumped off
No one measured me or anything
I just
Done a few spins
Yeah
Let your dick take the impact I just jumped off. No one measured me or anything. I just did a few spins. Yeah?
Let your dick take the impact?
I'm not even messing!
You are.
I've jumped off the top thing in Edinburgh Pool.
The one on Holyrood.
Oh, yeah.
There's only... Yeah, that's the one.
Yeah, I went there.
I was meant to go with Ed Hedges,
mate of mine,
but he was too hungover
and I was like,
I'm still going.
I'll feel better after this. You don't want to do the Olympic diving board You don't want to do the Olympic diving board Just because you know where something is. I don't reckon I'd have done it if I went there. I was meant to go with Ed Hedges, mate of mine, but he was too hungover and I was like, I'm still going, I'll feel better after this.
You don't want to do the Olympic diving board hungover.
I don't reckon I'd have done it if I wasn't.
Like, do you know what I mean?
Because I was hungover,
I was like,
ah, fuck it, give it a go.
Just knowing where Sutton is
doesn't mean you've done it.
I know where Wimbledon is
and I've never won it.
Oh, Wimbledon, yeah.
No, it's semi-finalist though.
Yeah, yeah.
Wimbledon's really fun.
Have you won that as well?
I haven't won it.
You know,
put your mind to it. I was in the qualifiers, but I had that ankle injury the night before. West Derby qualies. They're really into that. But I actually have jumped off the top diving board. Honest. Swear down. Swear down. Go on then. If you've got that instinct that you could do that. I just did a little. I reckon. You might have jumped jumped off but you didn't do a somersault
i couldn't help it what huh like i just it just happened you dive forward oh do you want me to do
this for you he's having fun though how did you dive off like a pencil or new year new adam i just
i just went
did you?
and then
your momentum just takes you
and I was just spinning
and then I remember
going like that
and then the water
just like got me
mad
yeah
I'm not messing
but there was an instructor
at the side
who stood up
and just started clapping
that's fucking
Guinness wouldn't you
like that's the best
I've ever seen
I've never seen anything like it it's one of's the best I've ever seen I've never seen
anything like it
it's one of the
best guys we've
ever seen
because like I
was like looking
there was like a
lifeguard stood at
the bottom of the
ladder thing
yeah there we go
she went for the
ciggy or something
yeah
so that's when
lifeguards are
always going for
the fucking ciggy
I fucking love
I can't
I just took
me chance
was it John
Grisham
the lifeguard
he's off.
I'm not messing. You are.
You absolutely fucking are.
I was in the pool
just like treading water,
right?
And then I was just
keeping an eye on her
and then I seen her
just like check her
watching her
and she went off
and I was like,
she's not coming back.
She's either gone for
a shit or a ciggy.
I've got five minutes here
and I squirreled me way up
and like,
I think the fact that
like I was in a rush, that's what made me flip because I was justreled my way up and like I think the fact that like I was
in a rush
that's what made
me flip
because I was
just like
fucking go for it
like do you know
me
just go for it
yeah
are you alright
yeah
how deep
I'd have had another
go if she hadn't
come back
oh yeah
she finished her
just had half
she's a lifeguard
she can't have a
full cigarette
that'd be irresponsible
you know
a kid cannot drown in the time it takes you to have half a cigarette that's a fact yeah I can't have a full cigarette that'd be irresponsible you know a kid cannot drown
in the time it takes you
to have half a cigarette
that's a fact
yeah
I was the only one in the pool
can we go to the darts
is what we're saying
are we good
can we go to the darts
I'd love to go to the darts
they say don't sit in the
the lower
concourse bit
because people at the top
throw pints of piss at you
oh really
yeah
you know I said about
the working class
yeah
yeah it is it'd be it'd be what's the tiers of like Because people at the top throw pints of piss at you. Oh, really? You know what I said about the working class? Yeah. Yeah.
It is...
It'd be...
It'd be...
What's the tiers of, like, the roughest sporting events
where it could get a bit feisty?
Where have you gone?
Nothing.
He's gone somewhere.
He has, hasn't he?
He's still flying through the fucking Olympic swimming pool there.
It's just funny, because I know that this sounds like bullshit,
and I know that neither of you even believe me 1%
and it's 100% true.
I honestly, sometimes I have no idea.
Like, if you had to ask me to put money on it,
I'd be in real trouble.
I'd be like, I'm not sure.
Because you talk so much shit on this podcast
and some of it is comedy gold.
That's why I'm laughing.
I know.
I can't tell you if it's bullshit.
I don't not believe.
I'd err on the side of bullshit. But the spinning, you didn't do some of sorts. I didn laughing. I know. I can't tell you if it's bullshit. I don't not believe. I'd err on the side of bullshit.
But the spinning, you didn't do some assaults.
I didn't mean to spin.
My momentum did it for me.
But when you hit the water,
I can't believe we're still talking about it.
When you hit the water,
was that, you managed to get yourself right there.
Like, I saw the scene coming,
but I was still spinning.
Do you know what I mean?
I opened my arms.
Oh, so your belly flopped?
I was having a spin. Like, I oh so your belly flopped out out of a spin
like
I saw something
like neck flopped
neck
like
it felt like
my neck went in
before my head
how high was it
he's off
nah
no
it felt like
I'm not saying
that happened
but that's what it
felt like
do you know what I mean
but then I come up
like a rush
more or less
how high is that?
That sounds right.
50 foot.
Onto your neck.
Yeah, but I obviously didn't go onto my neck
or I'd probably be dead.
How high is 50 foot?
I felt like that.
Three of his dicks.
Yeah.
It was fun though,
I'd do it again.
The highest platform is 33 foot.
I'd do it again.
But I wouldn't normally be able to do it.
I think it's because I was hungover.
Because I don't really like heights.
That's what Tom Derry does, doesn't he?
He gets fucked the night before the Olympics.
Oh, he gets absolutely smashed.
I think...
He's a Sambuca man.
Yeah.
I think you should be allowed to have one pint
before your driving test.
Why is that?
Because it calms you down
and no one drives safer
than someone who thinks they might be over the limit.
You know when you've had a pint and you're
like right no I'm
gonna I'm not gonna
leave the car I'm
gonna make sure to get
home because it'll be a
bully coming to get it
tomorrow
where would you have
the pint at the test
centre
no no because no no
because they'd have to
check you'd had a
proper pint so you'd
have to go for a
DVLA pint
yeah
just call in
not
I mean they'd fail you
if you went stellar
yeah
because that's irresponsible
no but you know
like do you not understand
what I'm saying
I do
calms you down
and it also makes you
a bit nervous
yeah
you know what I mean
so you're like
you know
it could be over the limit
and you drive up
makes you a bit nervous
like everyone's turning up
to the drive and says like
couldn't give a fuck
no but I mean like you know when you get into your driving test you get a bit
fucking confident than that and you is it relative no no one gets that confident all
right your side lad is it relative i'm going mackeys so like if if you had a pint it wouldn't
affect as you as much as like a 15 or 18 year old girl yeah i can have two so you can have
you have two pints before you test? Oh, one and a half.
One on the top.
Chantilly's?
Yeah.
Two lager tops.
Yeah.
I just think, like, the roads would be safer
if everyone had a pint before.
You think the roads would be safer
if people who weren't allowed to drive
got drunk and went out driving?
They're not drunk.
Tipsy.
Not tipsy, just take the edge off.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Shot of whiskey would do that.
Yeah.
DVLA whiskey. Yeah. That'd be an awkward would do that. Yeah. DVLA whisky.
Yeah.
That'd be an awkward bar, wouldn't it?
It'd be weird, wouldn't it?
Who's serving?
The head instructor.
Yeah.
There you are.
Down that.
You got to down it?
Or do you...
I don't know.
Just take your time.
Just at your own pace.
I'm just...
I'm not like...
Is it...
Is it illegal?
You know they do
drug testing in sport
what if
after a Premier League
football match
they tested
the players
and was like
fucking hell
Firmino's had about
three pints
I think it's got to be
enhancing hasn't it though
I don't know
but I mean
is that
if they tested for alcohol
would they be like
would that be
counted as like, illegal?
Are you allowed to be pissed in sport, is what I'm saying?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's not performance enhancing, if any.
No, but you just said with the driving test, it makes you more relaxed.
Yeah.
You know.
No, but I don't think it's classified as a performance enhancing.
He's had some babies lately, I'm ashamed.
I think if you test a positive for like cocaine or heroin or something, there might be a problem. Hero keeping. I don't think it's classified as a performance enhancement. He's had some bevvies lately, hasn't he? I think if you test a positive for cocaine or heroin or something,
there might be a problem.
Heroin.
Always with heroin.
Always with heroin. I'm going to try R8 as a big fucking slug of heroin.
Sheffield United have smacked off their tits then, by all accounts.
Yeah.
I don't think that's allowed, but having a bevvy.
You don't think that's allowed?
No, I don't think it's allowed either. having a bevy. You don't think that's allowed? No, I don't think it's allowed either.
Have you ever played football a bit pissed?
Yeah.
I hung over, yeah.
And you genuinely do play better.
Because the thing about football is you don't do things
because you don't want to make a mistake.
He gets really emotional about football, doesn't he?
I haven't played for ages.
Jesus Christ
you've been in tier 3
about 8 seconds
you're like
no because you don't
you don't do things
because you're worried
about making a mistake
but when you're hungover
you can go for fuck
so you do
you go for that
fucking little step over
don't you
yeah
I do play better
you get a little bit
yeah
I don't last as long
I've played fussy
after 4 pints
right
just went out
like after work
and had fussy laser on had 4 pints and then went out like after work and had a footy later on
had four pints
and then went
and had a game of footy
does it affect
your sort of stamina
and running or anything
eh
no I think I was just
in a good mood
just play a really
confident central midfielder
you've had like
three or four pints
and you just
like that
good zone
like
you know like
the taxi to town
after pre-drinks
I was like that
in that zone
playing footy yeah so you know what I mean like that, in that zone, playing footy.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
So I had fucking Show Me Love playing in my head.
Fucking, you know what I mean?
Dude, dude, dude, Gerrard.
How many goals?
Just shooting from everywhere.
How many goals did you score?
Lost count.
15, 20.
Easy.
That's not unfeasible, is it?
For you to score 15 to 20 goals in a game of football.
In a game of five-a-side?
Yeah.
No, I'm on fire.
Half-pissside? Yeah. No, I'm on fire. Half-pissed?
Yeah.
That's a fucking great bit of the night, isn't it?
Taxi to town.
Oh, God.
The taxi to town.
It's all ahead of you.
Like, arguably, if you average it out,
that might be the best bit of the night
because some nights are like,
it's been all right,
but so-and-so's missus kicked off and then we didn't get in that place because he was too pissed
some nights are great some nights are a bit meh but all nights in the taxi when you're like
the best nights are genuinely the unplanned ones aren't they like if you just end up at night it's
always better i think anyways i think maybe that isn't that yeah i've had some there's been some organized
belting nights out but i think your perception of it is like when it's someone's stag do you talk
about for ages someone's planned it you go out you can still have a blinder but you're like well
that should be a blinder because it costs loads of fucking money and we planned it for ages when
it just happens oh that your perception is, what a fucking win that was.
I've had so many good nights,
where like,
I've been shopping,
and fucked the shopping off,
and just gone,
should we just have a pint and a burger,
and like,
wet the spoons,
and then you're like,
should we have another one before we go back shopping,
and like,
should I have four more,
and then not do any more shopping?
Well,
we used to take our ID,
or we used to have it.
Just fucking hammered.
Yeah.
With an LFC bag, and a fucking Primark.
When we'd go shopping,
I mean, he didn't have ID, I'dark. When we'd go shopping, I mean,
he didn't have ID.
I'd take my ID
with me
because I knew
we were going out.
Yeah.
And his dad would laugh going,
I see he's at 4am,
we're not going out.
And he'd go,
yeah.
So hang on,
but you had,
like you went shopping,
bought some stuff
and then went on the piss.
Sometimes.
Because that would do my head in
having bags with me. Yeah, but we always knew the people who worked in bars so we put them behind the bar. Ah, there you go. There's the piss. Sometimes. Because that would do my head in, having bags with me.
Yeah, but we always knew the people who worked in bars,
so we put them behind the bar and shit.
Ah, there you go.
There's a connection.
Yeah.
You've got years of pissed up shopping left all around town.
Those lads are left fucking...
Oh, they were so good them days.
Children 60 quid of Hugo Boss stuff
in their fucking cloakroom.
Terrible Scouse accent.
Sorry about that, guys.
Yeah.
I can't wait.
Awful.
Obviously, like, big announcement and all that yesterday. Very fucking depressing and all that. that Scouse accent sorry about that guys yeah I can't wait for awful obviously like
big announcement
and all that
yesterday
very fucking
depressing and all that
it was coming though
wasn't it
I'd already written
January off
I just wanted to get
fucking news even
for my gigs and that
but you know
shit happens
but I can't wait
for that first night
you know
when every single person
in the UK
has been vaccinated
and they can open up properly
so like
first week of February whatever it it's going to be.
Mate, some of the things you've said on this podcast so far
have been hilarious.
The flying off the diving board at 33 feet.
Like, Gemma!
They're getting shit-faced on your driving test,
but everything's sorted by Feb 1st.
Come on, don't be a pussy.
No, but like, it'll be a few months,
but that first night in town, when you can just fucking go for on, don't be a pussy. No, but like, be a few months, but like that first night in town
when you can just fucking
go for it.
That'll be next year.
2022?
Yeah.
No, it won't.
Lad, the new vaccine's got
a three-month waiting period
between doses.
Yeah.
And you haven't even had it yet.
No.
And it's already genuine.
And you're way down the list.
No, but there's 50 million of them
by March they've got.
So, everyone by March
will have had the first bit.
No. Not everyone by March will have had the first bit. everyone by March will have had the first bit 50 million they've got
When are they going to do them?
50 million
It'd have to be like Maccadie's
It's not going to happen that quick
No they're going to get people in like Aldi
To do them aren't they?
Keep going
Now I'm on the hook
No but they've said like they're gonna
like get like
key workers
how's he as well
the fastest of all
the supermarkets
yeah
like you're gonna be
able to go to Tesco
it's gonna be 24 hours
so you can go to
like a drive-thru
and get your fucking
yeah
20 nuggets and a
covid vaccine
Timpsons
they're doing them
in Timpsons
you get your keys
cut get your vaccine
I think
it'll genuinely
at the earliest
October November before normal no before pot world see I know you You get your keys cut, get your vaccine. I think it'll genuinely, at the earliest, October, November,
before normal.
No.
Before pot-willed.
See, I know you don't believe in this strain,
but this has shit the whole, it's shit the bed, this strain.
Whether you think it's real or not, it's having an effect on policy.
And everything's going to get tightened up,
because if the transmission rate goes mental,
they're not going to let kids go back
and we are going to go,
we're going to get stuck back,
like, down the gears,
which is really depressing.
Just the vaccine's not going to fix this in time
as quickly as we thought it would.
Like, I think everyone thought,
yeah, by March, April, it'll be all right.
I don't think it can be fixed via the vaccine that quickly.
June, I reckon, will be all sound.
June, July.
Genuinely, that's my guess.
It'll be literally back to normal.
June, July.
I think 2021's not going to be the year that...
Happy New Year, everybody!
I just don't think it's all fucking roses.
No.
I'd love it to be, but...
And if it is, I tell you what, if it is,
it would be amazing.
It would be amazing. But I think I'm mentally mentally i'm doing that thing where you know you you go into a gig
and you're like oh it's gonna be shit and then if it's all right you're like it was all right
that was all right if i'm doing the same thing with like 2021 where everyone's like oh my god
that was a shit year 2021's gonna be amazing i'm just mentally preparing myself for a bit of a dog
shit start to it.
See, I can't do that because that's just too depressing to me.
So if it's not all sorted by July, I'm just going to kill myself.
Okay, cool.
We're going to go for an advert now.
Cyanide, our new sponsor of cyanide capsules.
10% off.
Oh, Jesus.
What can we do pod-wise?
We've done the live show.
We did the live stream.
That was fucking great.
It was a great little early Christmas thing.
We didn't think...
I mean, this year's been astronomical, hasn't it?
Yeah.
Terrible for the other part of our career, but...
Yeah, but for this, yeah, it's been...
What are we going to do?
What can we treat ourselves when things have eased up?
Laura's, you know,
out the baby.
We'll go away together.
We're on a trip.
Yeah.
When's the darts?
See, I think stuff
like that's going to
be last.
Right, yeah.
Yeah.
I think we could
just go away.
Go somewhere cool
like Copenhagen or
something.
Copenhagen?
Where did I go from?

including anxiety, depression, acne, psoriasis, and heart disease.
For those with cancer, it may even provide a natural alternative
for pain and symptom relief. Look, I'm not saying it's a wonder drug, but people are starting to
trust CBD oil as an alternative to chemical-based medication. It could work for you for any one of
those things. It's worth a try. Some of their best-selling products include Supreme CBD Face
Cream. They've got Supreme CBD Large Gummy Bears. They also even do a fruity e-liquid so you can

That's what I do at mine.
Yeah.
She's going, I don't understand.
I'm like, well, you fucking wouldn't.
What, Adam?
What did I ever do to you?
I know you're doing the questions, Dan, but I doing the questions done but i've just got some up i was watching um i was watching the page
today have you ever seen it i know the the idea premise yeah yeah i've seen it yeah it's good so
it's it's 12 you get to break the law for 12 hours once a year including murder it's everything
yeah any law you can bend if you could page for 12 hours what would you do
Bend. If you could purge for 12 hours,
what would you do?
Genuinely, though.
So, hang on.
Before we get into it,
is a purge just announced now?
No, so they say on February the 1st. So you've got
a month to get weapons?
If you want to use weapons, yeah. You can do anything.
What would you do?
So, non-comedy answer, real answer?
Real answer, yeah yeah because you can go
and kill people and stuff
but if you genuinely
for 12 hours
go and kill people
no but I'm saying
your answer would be
kill people wouldn't it
no
fucking would
you can do anything
for 12 hours basically
what would you do
it's mad that film
isn't it
because it's
it's a really
uncomfortable watch
and then within that world
everyone fortifies their house don't they yeah like because that's part and then within that world everyone fortifies their
house don't they yeah like because that's part of their culture that once a year they get that
purge 12 hours so everyone has like bomb blast like i think it's a wasted idea because the idea
of that everyone would just kill each other is a bit untrue isn't it so what would you do i don't
know i'd probably work out a way to like defraud something and make money or something like that or but you would wouldn't you
you'd work
what do you mean
Carl would ring Sky
and pretend to be his mum
and get the sport added
that
perfect
see how perfect that
yeah
it's dead perfect
except
in the world where there's a purge
I don't think Sky
have got the call centres on
like we don't
we want to come into work
because it's the purge
okay
well you have to because someone might be watching okay that ruins it then doesn't it. Like, we don't want to come into work because it's the Purge. Okay. Well, you have to
because someone might be watching.
Okay, that ruins it then, doesn't it?
Let's say...
I don't think...
The announcer for you.
I think the Purge is more like,
have you got murderous tendencies
or would you just shut up shop?
Because every time I watch that film,
I'm like,
someone's knocking at the door.
I'll be like,
someone's dead then.
Ringing the bell.
Because I'm not fucking opening it.
But it's so inhumane
don't give a shit it's purge night the bomb shields aren't going down but we had to let
him in as soon as you let him in on the purge you're like you fucking moron yeah let them die
on the doorstep and i'll sweep up the body in the morning where's your christmas spirit
fuck that what is it the Christmas purge?
It's a special Christmas purge.
I just think it's shit, that, the idea of everyone with murder,
it just annoys me.
I wish people would come up with more fucking...
You know in the purge, NatWest Online Banking isn't down
and you just get to fiddle with money.
It's more just like, you can get away with any physical crime on the night,
so people roam around and just fucking settle scores and murk people.
But like, let's say I go and rob like a belt of a car.
Yeah.
Like an absolute belter.
Cause I've robbed it.
Do I get to keep it?
Just robbed it.
Robbed the, um, like on the next, the day after the page,
they come around and go, look, you're not going to prison,
but we need the car back.
Yeah.
But is it worth going out on the streets
of West Derby
where you
West Derby's quite nice
on Purge night
I think it might get
a little bit edgy
no but I just
wouldn't say
in West Derby
I'd go to like
my local Ford dealership
right how would you get there
you drive in a Purge
in your Kia Sportage
well I'd get there
right just before the purge starts,
so no one can kill me on the way,
and then I've just got to make it back.
So 6pm, purge starts, quarter to six,
Adam's driving to the Ford garage.
He's the only one who's thought of this as well.
Yeah.
So I'm there, right?
Do you reckon on the purge that, you know,
Evans Halshaw might put all the cars inside?
All the keys and the ignition.
Oh, are they?
No, no, no.
No, like,
let's be realistic about this.
So,
I'm at People's Ford
in Bootle.
Yeah.
Right?
And just at six o'clock,
like,
maybe just before it,
I go in and threaten them.
Just like,
all right, lads,
sorry,
we're just about to show up,
you know,
because it's purge night.
You broke the law there Yeah
They're all there
With machine guns
Fucking
I'm just there like
Lad look
I'm not going to kill you
Or anything
I have got this Uzi though
Yeah
They'll be like
Well we've got our Uzi
But that's breaking the law
No
No I'm not threatening them
Listen
What
Saying
Lad
I've got this Uzi
I think in a court of law
That's not a threat That is factual I've got this Uzi. I think in a court of law,
that's not a threat.
That is factual.
I've got an Uzi.
I'm saying,
lads,
I've got an Uzi.
How's that crime?
I'm just saying,
and it's loaded and I'm dead good
at pointing it.
How is that
a fucking crime?
That's factual.
And I've got a grenade.
Not throwing it.
Not throwing it.
Not throwing it. Not throwing it. That's not illegal. No, I just go, look, I've got this grenade. Not throwing it. Not throwing it. Not throwing it.
Not throwing it.
That's not illegal.
No, I just go,
look, I've got this Uzi.
Right.
And,
do you like it?
My ma got me for Christmas.
Oh, nice Christmas Uzi.
Right.
Handed down from generation to generation.
Your grandad needed an Uzi
when he was plastering the fucking wigwam.
He's got his job boxed on.
So, I've got my Uzi,
and I're like,
look,
I don't want anyone to get hurt.
I know it's page night and that,
but I'm actually a good guy,
but I really want a Mustang
and I can't afford one.
Okay.
So just do us a favour.
Just go and get the keys to the Mustang.
Just, you know,
just leave the Mustang keys there.
Right.
And then six o'clock,
I'll take the keys.
I'll rob your Mustang.
Can't do anything about it though.
It's fucking page night.
At least you won't be dead.
Yeah.
I reckon they'd be like,
do you know what?
He seems like a nice lad.
Yeah. You're doing this before the purge though Adam
so you're committing the crime
before the purge
I'm not
because I'm not going to
pick the keys up
until 6.01
that's the only crime
that's been committed
you're going at quarter to six
to a fucking
people's in boot hall
and going
I've got a gun
leave the key there
because I don't want to
hurt anyone
but I'll only take it
at one minute past six
because I'm not a dickhead
okay so
tell me
you're the prosecution
we're in court
yeah
right
you threatened
I'm representing myself
you threatened them
with an oozy
right
yes
yes you did
put me on the stand
put me on the stand
you went in
okay I swore on it
I swear
you went in
by almighty Christ
I will tell the truth
the whole truth
and not a mother's truth
rubbing your nipple
you didn't see that on camera
Adam was like, I swear.
I fucking love Mustangs.
So ask me questions, like a lawyer would.
Go for it.
Right, go on.
I'm willing to test the facts.
All right, stop fucking badgering.
Yeah.
Have you ever seen that?
I'm the judge.
Badgering the witness.
He's the judge.
Fucking shut up.
I understand, but I'm also my own lawyer, so I get to object.
Yeah, but you've got to shut up while Dan's talking
so shh
fucking good luck with that
this is
this is Copenhagen
fucking
passport control
all over again
you're in court
you'll be held in contempt
with that language
please shut up
right
so
on the night of the purge
on the night of the purge
yeah
obviously everything's
fine from six
he's laughing did you go into people's Ford bootle Yeah. Obviously, everything's fine from six.
Did you go into People's Ford, Bootle, with an Uzi?
Yes or no?
At what time?
At quarter to six.
No.
Yeah, we've got you on CCTV, you did.
No, check it again, I arrived at five-two.
This is, right.
In role play, Adam's... You've lost the journey already, by the way,
because you haven't got your factory.
Right, I've done loads of role play in those podcast.
Adam is a classic blocker in role play.
He won't let you go with it.
He goes, no, it was five-two.
And I could go, no, we've got you on cctv
it was quarter to six clocks yeah you say good fucking and then i was there a quarter to six
and you had you had a you're the jody by the way you had an uzi i had an uzi yes yeah now obviously
purged on purge night any crime is fine after six yeah but you know threatening people with an uzi
is illegal isn't it?
I am aware of that, yeah.
Yeah, okay.
So you did that a quarter to six.
I didn't.
Did you not?
No.
So talk me through
what you said to the people at
Bootle's.
Objection.
Non-specific.
Sorry, what?
Talk me through what you said
is non-specific
to this case.
That's not a question
that I'd have to answer,
of course.
He wants you to outline who you're
talking to at what time what you said you're asking me to provide what did you say to the people
at the fucking car garage i with a fucking uzi is that specific enough I told the people there that I intended not to hurt anybody.
With an Uzi in your hand?
Why is he deaf?
I don't know.
He's fucking...
I brought my Uzi with me because I need a protection
because I knew I would be travelling back home after the page stopped.
Yeah, you're not allowed to walk around with an Uzi.
It wasn't loaded.
You're not allowed to walk around with an Uzi, though, are you?
That's illegal.
Define Uzi.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
What a fucking plug.
The Jody's watching this, by the way.
Yeah.
Define Uzi.
And you said, like, a sawn-off shotgun.
Yeah.
You had a sawn-off shotgun.
You had a shotgun.
Oh, my God.
Can we get to the fucking plot of what happened? You had a shotgun. You know this is a shotgun Oh my god Can we get to the fucking plot
Of what happened
You had a shotgun
You know this is a made up situation
You go
Define an Uzi
What's an Uzi
Because you can change the thing
Go actually it was an octopus
Yeah
I had an octopus
I don't know why you thought
It was a shotgun
I did have an Uzi
I did have an Uzi
But it was for personal protection
Because it was page 19
Yeah you're not allowed
To walk around Bootle
With an Uzi
Okay so am I being charged
With holding an Uzi
Or with robbing a Mustang?
I think it'll all go on the...
No, you've got to get me on one charge.
The charges being pressed are possession of a firearm and threatening to use it, yeah.
Yeah.
Oh.
I didn't have an Uzi.
You had the octopus.
Yeah.
Can't threaten anyone with an octopus.
Yeah.
Jodie, what do you think?
Guilty of...
I don't...
Also...
I've got a fucking oozy to remember.
Don't worry, lad.
It's an octopus.
Don't worry about it.
I love it how we had a purge fucking scenario
and you just nicked a car.
Like, you can do any crime
and you've also got to get that Mustang back from
the car garage
yeah but they're
fast aren't they
yeah
you don't have to
and you're forgetting
like traffic lights
a lot
you can ignore them
so you can just
fucking
yeah
on purge night
there's a lot of
Everton fans that
you've wound the
fuck up on twitter
I think you need to
stay in mate
yeah but they're not
going to be like
is that Adam Rowan
his Mustang
I think
I think I think yeah I think you need to stay in, mate. Yeah, but they're not going to be like, is that Adam Rowan? Is Mustang arty? I think, I think, I think, yeah.
I think you need to stay in.
I'd be absolutely fine in a Mustang.
What are you doing then?
Yeah, see?
Oh, you just robbed a car.
You haven't got a fucking jar of glue.
I think I, uh,
I think I could think of a few people
I'd like to fucking murder.
Would you?
Do you reckon you could go through with it?
No, because I'd get murdered on the way.
I know how my purge would go.
I'd be like, I've got a fucking shotgun.
Say you pay for personal protection, you know you're safe.
Would you think you'd have the ability to go and kill someone?
No.
I mean, could I be a murderer?
Yeah.
No.
And I'm such a dickhead that even if I picked someone I wanted to kill,
I would honestly get murdered on the way.
I know how it would go.
And I'd probably get all the way there and then be like,
I'd be the twat that got killed trying to kill someone. What would I do?
What law is told I like?
I can't think of anything
really. It's difficult, isn't it? Because as you say,
everyone would just protect themselves, wouldn't they? I do something...
I can't believe Carl wrote this question and didn't even have an answer prepared for himself.
I just wanted to know.
You've got that shit, innit? I don't want to sit there and have
a really fucking prepared answer.
It'd be something to do with money and the banks or something.
What are you on about?
I'm what?
You're going rob a bank.
Yeah.
It's not safe to rob a bank though, is it?
Because it's the purge.
People are going to wait for you to rob a bank and then kill you.
No, I'll go to one like that little shit one.
A little like that small Santander or something.
On purge night. Look, that guy's robbing a bank. Don't worry. to one like that little shit one, that little, like, that small Santander or something. I wouldn't know what it's about. Or I'd go to the big... On Bird's Night.
Look, that guy's robbing a bank. Don't worry. It's just a little shit one. It's just a... That's in Bradford and... Because they were an oozy at the credit union. Or I'd go to
a really popular bar that I know they've got loads of money. I love it. I think they'd
have squiddled it away. Yeah. you reckon it was oh I'm gone what
I turn up at people's Ford
right
5-2
right
but I don't show them the Uzi
right
I just let them know I've got it
that's the same thing
no it isn't
it is
because I won't be on camera
with an Uzi
where's your evidence
I'm just like
why are they going to give you the key then
do you know what I've got
do you know if you go into a bank
and go
I've got a bazooka in here
give me the money go I'm not do you know if you go into a bank and go, I've got a bazooka here, give me the money,
go, I'm not law.
Do you know, as well,
I love it in how our scenario...
Is lying against the law.
No, but threatening somebody is...
Yeah, but I haven't threatened them.
I've got an Uzi.
Isn't that good?
So if someone walked up to you in the street
and went, hey lad,
I've got an Uzi.
Well, where'd you get that from?
Here's your phone.
I fucking jumped off the top
of the fucking Olympic diving board
fuck off
do you know if you
rob a bank with a banana
under your t-shirt
and pretend it's a gun
it's the same as
using a gun
yeah
I'm not doing that
you're verbalising it though
I'm just
oh
I'm gone
I've fucking smashed it
ah
don't even need me Uzi
here it is
go on
go to people's Ford
right
get the Mustang
and they'd be open on Purge night till six.
Because that's how it'd work, wouldn't it?
If you know it was Purge night, you don't want to miss out on a sale.
Because people love buying fucking Ford cars ten minutes before the Purge starts.
So turn up.
Do you reckon they might be closing the shutters a little earlier than 6pm?
Go on.
So I'll go there, right?
Just buy a Ford.
I'll help you get the money
listen
I want to do a whip around
a Mustang
no I want like a
70 plate Mustang
right
so you turn up
and you go
listen lad
right
a 70 plate
it's the new
new licence plate
it's a 7 zero
wow wow wow
you turn up
and you're like
listen lad
I'm after a Mustang
got any
he's like yeah
got a fucking 70 plate Mustang
over here
can I just tell you,
I will show you,
but I do know it's quarter to six
and it is purge night.
Just letting you know,
lad, I want to sell you
the fucking Mustang.
That'd be a great sale for me.
I'm on commission.
You know...
Well, on top of your commission,
right,
I'll also put 20 grand
in your pocket
if you just stay until...
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Are you trying to bribe
a staff member at Bootle's?
No.
I'm not giving you a
bonus, lad.
Bootle People's Ford.
I'm calling it a bribe.
I'm calling it a bonus.
Okay, good.
No one needs to know.
Right?
I'll put it in your back
pocket as the price.
Right.
Can we jog this on because
it's the purge club?
I know it is, but I just
need to test drive it because
I don't want to be spending
fucking a lot of money.
I don't think they'd allow
that.
I don't think I'd be spending this much money on this.
But you just want to test it, even though you're just giving me a 20 grand bribe.
You do just want to test it.
Yeah, I just want to test it.
What's the 20 grand for?
Shh.
All will become clear.
So you let me test drive it.
Second I drop you off, 20 grand, right?
I think we know where this is going, by the way.
Right.
So you're drive him around
one minute past six he's like lad it's fucking page i've got to get this back i need to get
home i'm gonna get murdered and then i just press the fucking button just need the car adam
just just steal it shoot him and fucking blow his head off yeah no i don't want like i'm not
a murderer but i'd like open the door on like the motorway and push him out
at one minute past six
he'd survive
and I've got the key
I've done it all
after six
no one's been threatened
if anything
it was the opposite
of threatening
twenty grand
but I was lying
genius
genius
you were lying about
honestly if that
if it plays out like that
the guy who
let you still be
driving him around
on purge night at one minute past six on a motorway,
I think that's on him, innit?
Maybe he's going through a divorce and he needs the money.
Yep.
Just look for one who looks really, really depressed
and go to him.
Bad sales guy.
You've smashed it, lad.
Defence-wise, if I knew the Purge was coming,
I'd have to work on defences,
because I've just taken the padlock off our fucking side gate.
What, like, personal defence?
No, I mean, like, our house is an easy break-in, isn't it?
Let me know, lad, I can get you the gun.
Fucking Paul Smith broke into yours with one meaty elbow.
Yeah.
I can get you the gun now if you need it.
Couple of hours notice.
How's the Xbox?
Oh, it's been sorted.
Have you?
Yeah, some lad, like seven minutes after I tweeted it,
I got a message going, I'll sort you online.
Really?
Yeah.
So we don't start streaming.
Seriously, are we, like,
are you going to start the Twitch thing with you?
Yeah.
100%.
Oh, my God.
Especially Jordan.
I have nothing else to do.
We've got this.
We've got this, guys.
We've got this.
I wouldn't stay in my own house.
Would you go for a park?
No, what I'd do is...
What are we doing?
For half an hour,
say it was like six o'clock at the Purge.
Yeah.
I'd go to someone here to toast at half five.
You'd go where?
I'd go to someone I hate,
but they didn't know he hated them.
I'd just go to their house for a cup of tea.
Yeah. Just stay in their house. Do you think your enemies are going to let you in at 5.30 on Purge hate but you didn't know he hated them I just go to their house for a cup of tea yeah just stay in their house
do you think your enemies
are going to let you in
at 5.30 on purge night
they don't know
they think I like them
who have you got in mind
erm
could you imagine
if you just named
on a fucking public episode
pow
probably a Liverpool player
oh yeah
Jordan Henderson
inviting you round
for the blue is he
no he's alright then
erm
who am I going with
Robertson
Andy Robertson
yeah
and he's gonna let you in
yeah
because
Jesus Christ
brought some short blood
mate
yours is making his
look fucking brilliant
what do you mean
mine was brilliant
I've got a Mustang
and I'm home safe and sound
by fucking 5 past 6
you push someone else on the motorway, though, wouldn't you?
Yeah, you'd be fine.
How fast are you going?
70.
You're not breaking the law, even though you can.
I'll speed up after I've kicked them off.
If you want to hear more of these arguments,
twitch while playing FIFA.
Carl and Adam will be having mental conversations
while shouting at each other
playing FIFA
you got any other questions?
Dan Johnson
has a would you rather
you have to get
a positive test
one of these
you have to accept
a positive test
would you rather
it be
COVID
it's a hospital visit level
you do get ill
three or four months recovery
to get fully back to normal so it's a covid positive put you on your ass uh sti positive
test he's he specified herpes oh stays forever you've got it for life or pregnancy test someone
not your partner is pregnant it's yours and she's keeping it
would you rather
which one are you taking there
I'm taking Covid
she's taking Covid
it's the only one where you get sympathy
isn't it and it's the only one you can recover from
can't recover from a baby
good can if you abandon it
just abandon it just abandon it
just push it out the most way
no but just like
don't get involved
just be like
you can keep it
but I can't be arsed
oh what's that fucking
amazing line
of Dave Chappelle's
it was my favourite line
of that special
killing me softly
yeah and I didn't love
all of it
but there was some
amazing bits,
but that line about,
because of the Alabama,
Alabama were pushing
through the,
Oh,
no,
no,
not killing me softly,
sticks and stones.
The anti-abortion laws.
Yeah.
And he was like,
if you haven't got a dick,
you're really not your place
to be making this argument.
It is a woman's right
to choose,
but it's also
a man's right to choose not to pay for it.
Yeah.
If you can kill this motherfucker,
I can at least abandon him.
It's your choice, but it's my money.
You've seen Reversing Row.
What?
Reversing Row, it's called.
What's that?
It's a Netflix documentary about that.
It's not funny, but it's interesting.
Yeah.
So it's COVID, an STI, but it's herpes i i'd uh so it's covered an sti but it's herpes bad one two of these at
the end of my marriage and and covid everyone's like oh dan oh you're real i mean covid looks
like a bag of dicks done it especially if you get ill for three or four months i'd say covered

if you could pick
one town or city
to do a Bill Burr
Philly rant
where would you pick
same scenario
imagine you've gone on
they've booed for no reason
and you don't need to be there
so you just start
fucking railing
into them
york
where would you want
to absolutely shit all over?
York.
Both barrels?
York.
York.
I documented hatred
for gigging in York.
I'd lose it.
Because,
not because,
like in Philly,
he was getting like booed
and battered, wasn't he?
Like every other comic.
I'd be losing me shit
because they're all just sat there
like they're miserable
fucking faces
as they are.
Yeah, we're just,
we've come out because we're sick of staring as they are yeah we're just we've come out
because we're sick
of staring at each other
so we've just come out
for no reason
but we're not really
enjoying it
but we'd rather be here
than staring at the same
wallpaper
oh yeah
you've got your puddings
was that the attack
was that the attack
on the city of York
yeah
you've got your puddings
it's Yorkshire
what have they got
they've got Betty's
tea room
Yorkshire puddings are fired up Minster yeah but they got they've got Betty's tea room Yorkshire puddings
are fired up
Minster
yeah
but they think
they're better than
they are
Yorkshire tea
Yorkies
the dogs
Yorkie bars
made in
York
shite
misogynistic
cunts
yeah
I don't think
you're going to get
a filly van
who needs a tea room
just have a cafe
like a fucking normal place
you fucking pretentious
think you're all royal
you're a shithole slightly north of Leeds
it's absolutely gorgeous though
as a place
as shitholes go
it is absolutely gorgeous
it's a shit Edinburgh and a shit London
it's like Edinburgh fucked London
and had this disabled little shit town of a baby.
A fucking shite.
People move there when they're over their lives.
When they've had their kids and their kids don't like them anymore
and they don't want their kids to come and visit them,
they move to a fucking York.
One bad gig is that.
This is how annoyed it gets him.
One bad gig. York would. This is how annoyed it gets him. One bad gig.
York would be, as you say,
one of the more dull,
philly rants,
because they haven't got booing in them
if you'd fucking...
You could literally say all of that to them.
They'd be like,
well, how uncouth.
Yeah, and that's me problem with them.
Goodness me.
Because they think they're above
getting properly offended.
Goodness me.
You fucking pathetic,
silent cunts.
I will be writing a strong...
You non-clappin', non-laughin'.
We actually really enjoyed it.
Well, tell your face, Margaret, you stupid old bitch.
Fucking shower of shite.
Any York listeners watching, this is a comedy podcast.
Yeah.
It was.
I think you've picked a really fucking soft target Philly rant there.
Where would you go for?
Glasgow.
Glasgow.
I choose fucking Leith May the Wee.
If they all started booing me, I'd be like,
thank you so much for having me.
It's been an absolute pleasure, and I'm sorry about Brexit,
and I'm really sorry about the independence referendum.
Goodbye. Oh, and you're a fucking
shithouse as well, are you?
Oh my god, Glasgow.
You'd be ballsy. You'd get
that Philly rant reaction if
you started raging against... and I think
you'd get more because
it's also a nationality thing.
Yeah. You'd be... it'd be
suicidal in Glasgow. I'd have to turn that it'd be suicidal I'd get away with it
in Glasgow
I reckon I could turn that round
in Glasgow
you would get away
with slagging off Glasgow
in Glasgow
yeah
yeah
I feel like he's
sort of one of my
scousers at all
aren't he
yeah
I'm not sure
York though
you fucking
you got a fucking
tea room
you pussies
who's got a minster it's not even called a fucking tea room, you pussies. Who's got a minster?
It's not even called a fucking cathedral.
Yeah.
Shite.
It's shite.
And they think it's good.
It's a place you take your nan
when you can't be arsed in Preston
by taking her all the way to Edinburgh.
I can't argue with you.
I can't argue with you.
Well, they took you to Edinburgh, nan,
but they don't really love you, so let's go and have a cup of fucking tea
for nine quid
it's nice
and you're paying
it's really nice
nice place
absolute bag of shite
nice people
awful
what does this stand for
is this two bad gigs
what
what does this hatred stand for
I had like three
that I wasn't totally happy with
they were alright
you know what I mean?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't know.
I don't know what we've got, really.
I feel like we've got one
Have a Word,
which I want to do now
because it came up the other day.
It says,
Hi, Adam and Dan.
Absolutely love the pod you're
both amazing can you have a word with my mate emma please we are turbo shandies tonight and emma
brought them out with little slices of lemon in i asked her what she's playing at and she said she
put slice of lemons a slice of lemon in everything i posted a picture on twitter and dan called me a
tory can you please have a word with emma and tell her that a slice of lemon doesn't belong in a turbo shandy i can't take the blame for her being a bad tory thanks slice of lemon so goes they made a
turbo shandy yeah did you see on twitter no and and she and every one of them someone dropped a
slice of lemon well well i mean i know it's a turbo shandy but this is a cocktail party and
dropped in a slice of lemon yeah that is a bastardized
version of her i know you call me a toy sometimes but fuck me that's the line no yeah she's a dickhead
a slice of lemon goes in um any white spirited drink that has either lemonade or full fat coke
with it so why you pour fruit in a drink?
Go on, I actually don't, I'm not, I don't know.
So you can free pour the spirit because a free poured spirit has to be in a cocktail and it has to have at least three ingredients.
So the ice, the spirit and the fruit class as three ingredients.
That's why you can't free pour brandy or whiskey.
That's why you don't pour fruit in them because you can't free pour it.
So, I mean, what do you mean free pour?
You don't have the measures?
You don't use a jigger, no.
The optics?
Yeah.
No, no, no.
Or a jigger.
So to free pour, it has to be classed as a cocktail,
which has to have three ingredients, the ice, the spirit, and the fruit.
So what does lime go in?
Lime goes in rum and Diet Coke.
Right.
Rum.
So like a vodka Diet Coke is lime, a vodka and coke is lemon,
a gin and tonic can go with either
depending on what the person wants, but most places
will put lemon with it. That's a preference, that one.
I'm not a big fan
of the old, oh, it's a Corona,
and we've put lime in the top.
Do you know why they put limes in Corona
over there? Why did
they do it over here? They do it over here because
they do it over there. Because of over here because they do it over there
because of flies
yeah
but when you're in
fucking Ormskirk
I think you need to
behave yourself
you're not in
Guadalajara
that's why if you get
a whiskey you'll never
have fruit in it
because it's not
been free poured
I'm not a big fan
I think
I just don't know
I haven't said that
what are you having
tonight
what are you having
tonight
I've literally bought myself
a Smirnoff Ice, because it's
New Year's Eve tonight. I know this is going out
in the new year, but tonight is New Year's Eve.
I don't know. I probably won't have anything.
Because I'm just going to be in mine,
doing fuck all.
I might, at midnight, let myself have
a pour of one of my fancy whiskeys,
but I probably won't even do that.
What are you doing, Carl?
Are you seeing Serica?
Yes, in a safe environment sport bubble.
Okay.
Fucking hell, lads.
It feels like you've just got a secret email from the COVID cops.
Yes, in a secret bubble.
We're both going to a very sanitised,
empty room in Cornwall.
Yeah. We'll move empty room in Cornwall. Yeah.
We'll move.
It's Cornwall.
I'm getting smashed up with my pregnant wife and three-year-old.
Fucking lads on tour.
Getting smashed up?
No, I'm just kind of... I'm having a few beers.
Yeah.
I know Laura's not.
I've got confetti cannons.
I might just get Etta sugared up.
Like, have another fruit shoot.
How old is Etta going to have to be before you'll let her drink in the house?
Seven? Eight?
Nah, I'm not an animal.
Nine.
Has she finished her sats?
Wine with food's allowed, innit?
Yeah.
No.
Yeah.
Bottle of rosé.
Yeah, you can make it if you say.
She can't start drinking wine before I do.
That's going to look fucking stupid, innit?
Not like I'm an old man, you know.
Where I'm having...
No, we've had this conversation.
I'm not into it.
Give her a bottle of rosé.
What's the right age for a child to be drinking at home?
Honestly.
16, isn't it?
12.
Is it 14?
It depends.
It's 14 about right.
It depends what they're drinking.
I don't want to, like,
going around the streets getting fucking hammered.
Like, I'd rather we were the sound parents
that let her have a drink at home with her mates
rather than pretending she's not going to do it.
That's the biggest...
Parents are such idiots like that.
Well, I know we did it, but I don't want them to do it,
so I'm going to pretend that they're this angel until they're 17.
It's fucking ridiculous.
Yeah, I'd say 12, 13.
What are you giving them, though?
Yeah.
Taboo.
What's taboo?
Archersches all that
sort of
you know
arches and lemo
yeah
she's not
happy 12th birthday
love
jaeger bombs
now's the time
but you always
drink at home
drink your jaeger bombs
at home
how old would you have to be
before you let her
have a line of cocaine
that's going to be
an awkward one
genuinely
what am I going to do with the drugs thing it's on record that I've done drugs what am I going to be an awkward one. Genuinely, what am I going to do with the drugs thing?
It's on record that I've done drugs.
What am I going to do?
She's like, Dad, what do you think about drugs?
Like, it's disgusting.
Now I've found Jesus.
Let's do the same thing as you did with alcohol.
We know you're going to do it anyway.
You're 14 now, you've got to do it with Mummy and Daddy.
Bring your friends round.
We'll get it in.
I've got a really good deal.
We'll get it in.
Now, listen, I'm not irresponsible.
I don't want you doing coke from somewhere I don't know.
Let's do the coke from my dealer.
Now, is...
Is...
Can you imagine having to ring the other parents?
Now, have all the other parents been all right with it?
I'm going to need to speak to the other parents about the coke.
Jesus Christ.
Never thought about that before.
I have thought about what tap we're're gonna take when she's older like it is a bit of a concern because now she's just a
kid and it's all easy she's like it's just so simple you just like don't fall over don't hurt
yourself it's dead sound but as she gets older she'll get more independence and i don't want to be that hypocrite
who's like don't do that and don't do this yeah if you tell them no they will they're
gonna do it anyway what about lads in the house
every time i think about lads i'm like i just become marcus from fucking bad boys what really
how old are you you're at least dirty from fucking bad boys. What, really? Reggie! Who the fuck is Reggie?
How old are you?
You're at least 30.
You ever made love to a man?
You want to?
Yeah.
But if she's got a boyfriend at like 14,
what am I going to do?
Can he stay?
The lad in the kitchen, Andy.
Lad in the kitchen?
You don't have to be in the bedroom, do you?
If you come round To visit
But
But
If she's gonna do it anyway
I'd rather
If she's got a boyfriend
No chance
When she's 14
You'd be closing
That bedroom door
Not that chance
But what
But if she's got
A boyfriend
What are you gonna do
Say
No it's not
Cause then she's just
Then it's just gonna happen
Somewhere else innit
If they're 14, 15
And they're gonna do it Why are you pushing them Into a it? If they're 14, 15, and they're going to do it,
why are you pushing them into a place where you're like,
14 and 15 are very different ages, though, I think.
All right, okay.
I'm just saying, in and around that, before she's 16,
genuinely, what are you meant to do?
Pretend it's not happening, and then she might get pregnant or something.
I think you should book them a hotel.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Listen, love, listen, love.
Listen. A little bag of lemon. Premier in, premier in. I think you should book them a hotel yeah yeah yeah listen love listen love listen
little bag of lemon
premier in
premier in
I spoke to me mate
Lenny
and
I'll tell you
if you don't
if you don't accept it's happening
it's going to happen somewhere else
and then it's like
she's going to hide stuff from me
I hate the idea of that
so you could be in the house now
and there's some 14 year old little scuzz
oh no
I forgot about the lad oh god would it be easier for you if she was a lesbian well 14 she brought a
girlfriend home that's such it's a weird like almost the only case don't be, I'll be scissoring up there! Open that door!
Open that door!
Oh my God, it's the weirdest thing.
It would be better if there wasn't some...
If there wasn't some lad like,
You all right, Mr Nightingale?
You all right? I've come to see you.
Because I was one of those horny little bastards
with some fucking young gay girl who's got like a wedge
and some futuristic lesbian
hair colour. Hi Mr. Nygall, hi, you alright?
Come upstairs. Would you give him the
would you give him the talk?
I got the talk off my first
girlfriend's dad. Oh my god
you didn't. Yeah? Did you?
He said it like a joke. How old were you?
15 or
16 in between the main. I would definitely do it in a black book. Son, calm 16, in between the ages.
I would definitely do it in a black book.
Son, come down, sit with me now.
Sit with me now!
I've got a few things I want to talk to you about.
He said it in a jokey way.
We'll murder you.
But it was like, yeah, if you dare to, you know,
we'll go to the woods and you'll be coming home.
And we were all laughing.
And he went...
It was something
along the lines of that
I was like oh shit
I love it
lad
have you seen the film
The Purge
if you hurt her
it'll be fucking
one minute by six
for the rest of your fucking life
see I know
like when I'm a dad
here he goes
here he goes
when I'm a dad
little sweary
five year old
fucking
Vinnie Jr.
What do you want, Dad, you cunt?
Go on.
Oh, like, in all honesty, my kids...
Give me the keys to the Mustang, you fanny.
No, my kids are going to be raised right.
They're going to be going to church till they're 15.
Oh, for fuck's sake.
Well, that's where they'll lose their virginity.
But, like...
Catholic church, ladies and gents.
That's the kind of humour we don't usually do.
If I've got a Little girl
And she brings
A lad home
He can stay
How old
14
Fucking hell
Really
Stay
But
They're in
Separate rooms
He's staying
With me

If you want to be her lover, you've got to get with her dad.
Jesus Christ.
Your daughter is going to be single for a long time.
Look, I've made up a fucking floaty bed, right?
It's in mine and Amar's room.
You can stay over, but you're going to sleep with us.
You're not staying in our bed.
At the foot of the bed, like a dog.

Yeah.
It's good to know.
Nearly bought you a Hamilton Academicals shirt

40 quid.
Elijah was the name of Hamilton, Alexander Hamiltony shit, just to be like, are you like Hamilton? And then everyone would be like, good joke, Dan. Kobe! 40 quid. Eliza was the name of Hamilton,
Alexander Hamilton's wife.
Yeah.
Eliza!
I put myself back in the narrative.
Well, there's large swathes of that
where I didn't know what was going on,
but I tell you what,
imagining what would happen to our sexually active children
is way more entertaining than I thought it would be.
You know, generally, it's not one of those subject matters
you think is going to be dead fun.
I wouldn't tone that down around it and say,
well, you know, when we're sat there and having a laugh and that,
I'd be like...
I think you're going to be a fucking nightmare
for this kid's boyfriend
because you're going to be, hopefully, well-known by then.
You know?
What if he's a patron?
Oh, that's tricky innit
no
that's worth two fingers
do you know what
I'll
I'll save
I'll save

awkwardness

I don't always wear them.
He does because he's got bald man problems and he looks a little bit...
Doesn't look good.
You look like Moby mixing a new...
That's a new thing.
I could do that that but i need the

take that into account it's midweek i've just been gardening sit on a stool as well yeah
muddy trainers i do like a little sit down sometimes you know
do you never wear caps not on stage i would feel weird about wearing caps on stage it's like short
shorts i wouldn't wear on stage shorts and caps oh good shout on the shorts i've done shorts at
edinburgh i've done my full hour in shorts yeah really because like that second week of the
edinburgh festival i sort of give up on trying to impress the audience. I'm sort of like, look, you've paid your fiver to get in.
Yeah, yeah.
If that.
Some of yous are here for fuck all.
And I'm going to dress how I feel comfortable.
This room's boiling.
The walls are literally sweating with the infections of the plague.
If I want to wear shorts, that's the least of the problems in this fucking cave.
What kind of...
Not like sports shorts, though.
Yeah, you really short shorts.
Speedos.
Woo!
I put swimming shorts on.
Yeah, they're like five-inch ones that are just for, like, marathon runners.
At one point, I had...
With a little ball pocket, like...
I had a pair of jean shorts at once, and they're just not acceptable for a fat man to wear.
Yeah, jorts, they're called, aren't they?
I look like Holly Valance.
I think...
I bet you fucking did.
I just... I nearly carried on and went oh no no i think shorts is a it's got to be like extenuating circumstances hot room in edinburgh
everyone's like fuck i'm hot but like it's amazing certain gigs you're like come on mate
we're paying your money but seeing someone someone absolutely crushing a gig in shorts is quite...
Who's the...
Roger Monkhouse.
Roger Monkhouse.
He's got a winter outfit and a summer outfit.
Yes, he looks like...
I've seen him compare the Comedy Store in flip-flops
and absolutely destroy it.
You know you are liked by the ownership
where you flip-flop into the room, yeah.
Imagine an open spot arriving in flip flops
and don war doing it this is what you did wrong just going down his fucking outfit
after the lockdown i i just worn shorts through the whole of march april and may
yeah yeah and i just the first couple of gigs back i was like i'm not ready for jeans and
but they were outdoors as well the one here that we
did the run corn gig the in the big room i wore shorts i fucking loved it yeah but then it just
then you just got to go back to normal i've i've done a couple i've been on a couple of zoom
like calls meetings and been wearing shorts and accidentally had the the camera sort of angled up
my shorts and then someone's had to say,
can you just push the camera up a bit?
Because it's sort of going directly up your shorts.
Wow.
How low do you have your laptop for the old two days?
I've since got like a little thing to put it on.
There you go.
I did a very quick Zoom meeting with me dick out.
Because I slept naked and woke up,
I've got to do that thing.
And I just threw a hoodie on.
Yeah. But I had no one of these on and I just threw a hoodie on. Yeah.
But I had no one of these on.
I nearly answered the door two days ago.
I sleep naked quite a lot,
and I live on my own now,
so walking around completely bollocko
is one of the privileges of that, isn't it?
Yeah.
So I woke up, and it was,
you know, some of you might have seen,
there's an artist in Liverpool called John Charles,
and he painted portraits of me and Paul Smith.
You know that picture?
Yeah, yeah.
So he's got his own fashion brand now called Be Boss, Be Kind,
and I ordered a hoodie and a cap from that.
And his missus come to deliver the thing, because rather than post it,
she's like, I know where Adam Lynn is, I'll just take that.
And I was half asleep.
I'm not sleeping very well.
So I had like three hours kip, and I just hear the knock on the door,
looked out the window
and was like,
oh,
be down in one minute
and literally just ran to the door,
put the key in the door
and had my hand on the handle
and I went,
oh,
I went,
one minute.
I had to go and put something on.
There's something very toddler-like
about being naked
from the waist down,
isn't there?
Yeah, yeah.
It's one of the,
you'd rather,
it better to be full nude
than just like t-shirt
and nothing else like child on the beach some lights there's some theories about the fact that
sleeping naked is supposed to be really good for you there's some like some theories about how it's
uh could feel like your your psychology it's good for the bed bugs to get a good fucking nibble on
your dick they can really get at you is it like got nothing in the way. Is it like those things people used to do where they put their feet in a fish bowl?
Yeah.
Is it like that for your whole body?
Oh, my God.
Adam's shiny, clean dick,
because all the bedbugs are like,
Guy! He's in bed!
Did you ever go to one of those fish foot spas?
So, you put the feet in, there's loads of fish,
who are basically fish slaves.
There's piranhas in a...
Come on, now.
Which absolute gypsy-owned discount fish...
Come on, now.
You're the fish pharaoh.
You've got a little bit of trout
and a few piranhas.
Yes, Moira,
you lost a couple of toes.
Christ, you got a fucking freebie.
Just like small little nibbly fish.
Baby piranhas were in the bowl
and you put your feet in
and they'd chew
like all the fucking
dead skin and stuff
yeah
they're normally
it's normally in the middle
of like a shopping centre
as well
no they had a great
in the middle of Wilco's
and Boots
2008 to 2014
and then everyone went
oh fuck off
it wasn't there
people
the fish started dying
because they were eating fungus
no I thought
they stopped it
because they were spreading you were spreading it yeah because you were eating fungus. No, I thought they stopped it because they were spreading diseases.
You were spreading it, yeah.
Yeah, because you were eating someone's foot and then eating someone else's.
Yeah, yeah.
Just fucking spreading the gear around.
FTDs.
Getting AIDS from a little fish.
What a shit life.
You just say FTDs.
FTDs.
And that could be either fish or feet.
Pick your joke.
What a crap life.
Insidactive jokes without them, though.
Crap life for those fish.
Crap life, my friend.
Just fucking horrible foot after horrible foot.
Yeah.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang.
No one was forcing them to eat them.
Do you know what I mean?
You're saying it like the fish.
What, like there's one fish in the corner like,
No!
Not doing it!
It's why we're here, Pete!
Come on!
No!
I'd rather fucking starve
not getting minimum fish wage
do they get
do you think they get fed food as well
or is that their food
people putting their feet in
could you google off us
please Karl
could we find that out
pull that up
I wonder if anyone tried to stick a dick in
I think you'd be immediately
I've got a new mattress
I don't have the old Adam Rowe dick cleaning option
At home with the bed bugs
Like a dick valet
A dick valet?
You take your dick to get valeted
Yeah, like a back sack and crack
No, I mean like put your dick in the water
You're quite sort of well groomed
You couldn't wear a cap because you'd look famous then Do you know what I mean? I know you in the water and it just you're quite sort of well groomed you couldn't wear a cap
because you'd look famous then
do you know what I mean
I know you're not famous quite
you would look famous
do you think
if you had your big coat on
that you come in
with a cap on
head down
people would be like
who's that
Jude Lawley
like a famous vibe
Sam Smith
they'd probably think
you do
you have got like
Sam Smith's current hair cut as well
yeah
I've been told
I look like Sam Smith for years
yeah
people used to shout it
you keep copying his
look though every time
he gets in a
maybe need to gain a
bit of weight to
a really ill Sam
Smith
Sam Smith with AIDS
yeah
but do you do you
look quite
probably shouldn't
say that
keep going on this
road don't turn left
maybe don't use that
from fish
from fish
no look he could get AIDS he could anyone could get AIDS you know you put in your dick yeah I imagine turn left. Maybe don't use that. From fish.
No, look,
he could get AIDS.
He could.
Anyone could get AIDS,
you know.
You put it in your dick.
I imagine he's putting his dick somewhere.
In fish tanks.
Yeah.
I think if you're dipping
your dick in a fish tank.
Then you deserve AIDS.
You should.
I'm not going to say
you should get it.
I will.
You should.
Fuck them.
If you're being a dick,
if you're fucking fish
with your dick,
you deserve everything you get.
It's brutal when audience members decide you look like,
so it's just such a fucking annoying heckle to get in it.
Yeah.
Because they go,
who's it?
It's Sam Smith!
Yeah, yeah.
And then they're expecting it to be like,
ahhh!
And it's not actually funny.
It's also, I don't really know,
because when people used to shout it,
I don't really know how you're supposed to respond.
There's no like,
fuck off and die! There's just nothing, there's just nothing there's nothing particularly because your style on stage
is very friendly and you're quite conversational when we gigged together last year in shrewsbury
yeah you went on and i'd compared and i don't like everyone can we talked about this recently
you can do your comedy how you do it and you started off and i was like oh tom's doing the
opening half an hour and you chatted to the audience to get into every bit of it and at first i was like oh
it feels like he's comparing and then after 20 minutes i was like oh he's absolutely nailing it
it's a very friendly conversational style so if someone chips in with her you look like sam smith
you can't be like why don't you go fuck your mom anyway mate so where do you work well someone's i
remember someone saying to me,
I can't remember who,
but they said,
with heckles,
you need to, like,
you go back with the same level of aggression
they've come to you with.
So if they say, like,
I don't like your T-shirt,
you don't shout,
get cancer.
Do you know what I mean?
You've got to be the same level of...
It's a great put-down!
It's got to be the same...
What could they say
that would justify you getting cancer? Get cancer yeah no you get cancer brilliant that's a great it's it's
a weird bit of advice though isn't it whatever energy they bring you just like it's very sort
of like drama teacher advice isn't it i don't like t-shirt i don't like your t-shirt professional
comedian i don't know what sort of gig you'd have to be doing with someone which out i don't like your t-shirt professional comedian I don't know what sort of gig you'd have to be doing when someone would shout
I don't like your t-shirt
the worst heckle
is repeated compliments
isn't it
you know when someone's like
I really like you
and you're like
you've just ruined that joke
but thanks anyway
be quiet you
be quiet you
this sounds so ridiculous
someone laughing too much
when the gig's going well
but one person is either way too keen,
way too drunk,
or...
When they're like...
And you're like...
Because the gig's going well,
but then they're going so big with their laughter,
you feel like,
I'm going to be...
This is the only time this year
I'm going to have to be like,
could you enjoy this less?
Because it starts annoying the other audience members. To be hearing someone laugh at what you've written i mean like i wish she'd
fucking stop that yeah because at first you're like wow you've got a big laugh and everybody's
yeah they have and like well into the set it's just too much i i think that thing about equal
aggression i'm not sure that's a great bit of advice you need to go one up just one up
I think if someone loses it
it's so empowering to be like
alright
why are you so angry
it's just a comedy show
if you just go and they're like
no
I feel like you're fairly aggressive
I can be
I get aggressive
this is becoming a little theme.
And I love it when he goes, no, no, no.
No, I can be.
I get aggressive when someone is really rude.
If someone gets proper aggressive, like, I'll fuck them back.
I'll smash your head in.
Then I'm just, like, I laugh at them.
Because I know that that is exactly what they don't want.
Like, last year, Hot Water did some external Christmas shows
in a theatre called Grand Central
and in Liverpool
it's the old Barcelona bar
and I was the last act on
and there was a group of six in the back
three girls and three lads
and they'd just been cunts all night
like every comedian had come off
and been like they had a fucking nightmare at the back
and I went on
and I just like they were a fucking nightmare at the back. And I went on and I just,
like they were just talking,
like in a big theatre,
but you could hear them.
They're like, yeah, after here,
we'll go to fucking Inc.
And then maybe we'll go to fucking 52.
And then we'll go.
And I was like, hey,
and I was just really audible,
like not aggressive, not shouting,
just like pulling apart
what their personality could be.
And when you talk at someone
and don't give them a chance and you've got a microphone they got really really angry the lads
tried to rush the stage and i tried to rush the stage the dormant that eventually they got kicked
they should have been kicked out after the first fucking section but they got kicked out and then
after the show i went to leave and the dormant grabbed me and went they're all waiting for you
outside saying they're gonna kill you you need to go to fire have you ever have you ever had anything get a little bit physical uh this is literally
like i know we've you know we've missed gigs and they're just coming back it's gonna be a rope here
let's remember when you nearly got twatted i don't i don't think so i've seen it like there
was a famous thing that happened at top secret in london where where somebody threw a pint glass at
the stage do you remember that?
No.
It was like a big...
Was that at you?
No, but I was there because I went on just before I threw the glass.
God, this is boring.
It was James Loveridge, I think.
Oh, yeah.
Do you know James?
Yeah, host Spank.
Yeah, so of everyone to get a pint glass thrown at,
he's probably the best one because he's hosted that show for years.
Spank's like a really, the latest of late night shows at the Fringe.
I think Spank's like what Late and Live used to be, isn't it?
Yeah.
Late and Live's a bit tame now.
Mate, Late and Live shouldn't even be allowed to be called Late and Live.
Spank exists, you get confirmation times come through,
it is ten past three in the morning.
Yeah, yeah.
It's a fucking thing.
And they also do that thing where they get someone completely naked on stage,
don't they?
Yeah, the cock spot.
Yeah.
The free, you get to advertise your, like, am-dram show.
So at Spank, so let's contextualise it a bit for listeners.
This is at the Edinburgh Festival.
Yeah.
And Spank starts at three o'clock in the morning, doesn't it?
Is that right?
No, it's more like two.
Maybe it ends at three.
Maybe it starts at one and ends at three it's late
it's insanely late yeah and uh but it's always busy every night even like a monday night yeah
and it there's two hosts they co-host it and they're bouncing back and forth with these
abigail is still doing it abigail showman uh james loveridge evan demaree started doing some
of them last year i believe and it's fun
and they have acts
go on doing late night sets
the acts are often
as drunk as the audience
because it's ladies
as fuck
and they've done four shows
that day and they wanted a pint
the audience are hammered
every time someone
on stage says
spank
the audience shout
we love it
because it's like
sort of Pavlovian
drilled into them
like a cult
yeah
but they love that
that's why people love podcasts.
They like the repeat jokes.
They like the...
I like that.
It's fun.
But to have it at a live show in Edinburgh,
that takes some doing to get people to know your catchphrase
because it's such a transient...
I saw Ian Sterling rip into someone that was rude to me at Spank.
He went on the set after me and he slammed them.
And I just did my set there
was some bell ends i dealt with it but not spank style and ian sterling went on and sort of defended
my honor which i hadn't asked him to do he's like your fucking damn name goes on and you're being a
god and every time he slammed me he went spank and everyone you love it what the fuck i have not done
this gig enough like it was amazing just saying
Ian Sterling
is such an underrated comic
yeah man
like because he's done
so much like reality TV
and stuff
I think some people
think he's like
a reality TV guy
who does stand up
he's a fucking
comic
he's sharp as fuck
any fucking room
he can go and
I remember talking to him
after that first
or second series
of Love Island
and he was doing a massive tour and talking to him about what that was like.
And he was like, he said, because he did this thing before he came on stage at his tour,
he would have the mic on stage and then a table with the Love Island water bottle on it.
And it said Ian on it, just as a little nod to the show.
And he said before he came on
audience members would be queuing at the front of the selfie to take a picture with the fucking
water bottle and he'd be in the wings going oh my god they're having a selfie with a water bottle
that's fucking insane yeah um he's a great comic james lovebridge that hosts spank it's not the
kind of comic that you'd think
would anger an audience enough to be glassed.
No, he's so friendly.
He's so nice.
But the point is that if anyone's going to throw a pine glass at a comic,
James is probably one of the best
because he's hosted that show for...
He's used to it.
So what happened?
It missed him and it smashed against the back wall.
But if it hit him in the face, it would have...
I mean, it's serious damage.
Yeah.
Pine glass in the face.
Oh, that's one.
As you're picking glass out of your eyes,
you're like,
did it get recorded?
Have they got the footage?
How funny would it be
if James Loveridge
became the new Jim Jefferies?
Getting a sack on stage.
Maybe in that case,
your baseball cap
might have helped a bit
if you had a cap on.
You could have just put your head down
I really want to get
I think our audience
will love the fact
that this cock spot thing
exists as spank though
so at that late night show
where it's fucking wild
everyone's pissed
and co-hosts
we love it
every time someone says spank
before the penultimate act
so you've got the headline actor
who's always a decent profile
and the penultimate act
is normally the newest one
to spank,
one who hasn't done it before.
I've only done it once, and that's the spot I did.
And just before that new act goes on,
they let anyone in the audience
who has got a show at the Edinburgh Festival,
you can come on stage and promote your show
to the 200 people that are there,
as long as you get completely fucking naked.
And I seen some absolute maggot dicks that night.
Yeah, but I remember being there thinking, surely no one's gonna get completely naked and then every time i've done
it someone's got completely in front of like 300 people do you know how dick my how big my dick
would have to be for me to use it to promote my head in the show i think i could do major damage
to my sales like yeah you'll get naked and then
you'll promote your show and you'll sell more tickets yeah yeah i think i'd ruin a load of
children's nights like and it's not set if anyone's like oh is it a bit pervy it's really
not it's some awkward 19 year old drama student even when the girls get naked is it going oh is
it going to be really raunchy she's like fucking hell
it'd be amazing
if you got
completely naked
it just completely
killed the atmosphere
of the night
all the clapping
just dies down
there was just a lump
on one of your balls
people on the front row
are like
you want to go
that's how you find out
that's the night
you found out
you got cancer
another cancer reference
I'm loving it
18 minutes in sorry oh man have another cancer have you been uh have you been gigging
since we've come back have you just been
doing zoom stuff have you been taking
covid seriously i did uh i i did quite a
lot of gigs in in between the two
lockdowns yeah in that summer bit uh
where are you based mum in london i
did a lot of
outdoor stuff
driving gigs
did you do any of those?
no
yeah I did
yeah
and
what a joy that was
I had one
day one
but that was my very first gig back
and
I was watching my set
on YouTube
before I did it
and then got on
and
you couldn't hear anything.
They'd managed to, for some unknown reason,
socially distance the cars from the stage.
Because people in cars really need to be a good 15 to 20 metres from the stage.
I've always said that, yeah.
And the sun was setting behind the stage
so you could just see through the windows that the sun was hitting them.
It was like July and they were like...
It was fucking brutal.
With Freddie Quinn wandering around the back around the background oh you ripped it oh the feedback was amazing and they'd been told they
weren't allowed to honk the horns because of the they weren't allowed to honk the council had gone
you can't honk that's the only um because because i only did one one of them but then we did two
shows in a night and the first show was tough because none of us had ever done
gigs to cars before but then the second show you kind of you kind of already used to it
and i remember doing a joke and thinking i got more beeps in the first show
and i was like i was already like used to gig into cars i couldn't do it me i just needed to
be back i sort of wanted to do it more out of curiosity than anything else.
I said that at the time.
I was just like, this summer, hopefully,
is the only time you'll get the opportunity to do a drive-through gig.
Pray God I don't want to do any more.
We've done beer gardens.
Freddie Quinn organised a gig in a garden in Chorley.
I did some beer gardens.
It was unusual, but I've got to do it
I'm like you know
when are they happening again
the outdoor ones
I've quite enjoyed
they were fine
they've been fun
like
as long as it's a
sort of
you know
they're literally a metre apart
and there's still a bit of
atmosphere
I did one in a field
and they were literally told
bring your own chair
and put it wherever you want
and there's people like
you're in one penalty box
on the footy pitch
and they're on the fucking line
at the back
bring your own chair
and put it wherever you want
yeah
that's a great idea
I'm like no I'm comfortable here
you can't talk to me
there was a lot of goodwill though
yeah
initially wasn't there
of like wow
because it was well publicised
that comedians had had a
blitz type thing
yeah
get your garden furniture
and come down
and support live comedy
yeah yeah
and then that wears off
it's like yeah
it's just fucking
they should have done
a drive through spank
that would have been incredible
get your knob out
on your feet
500
standing on the
roof of your car
with your knob out
just open the bonnet
like
look at the engine on that
that's better than the blitz
thing was funny as fuck
wasn't it
like especially like
Liverpool
right I don't know whether you know there's not much time you spend in Liverpool you know Liverpool is a very that Spirit of the Blitz thing was funny as fuck, wasn't it? Like, especially, like, Liverpool, right?
I don't know whether you know,
there's not much time you spend in Liverpool.
You know, Liverpool is a very parochial city,
and I think if Liverpool were given the independence referendum
that Scotland were,
it would be a 93% yeah, we're fucking off,
and seven would be.
Oh, the only problem, maybe Runcorn trying to get involved as well.
Like, no, we're fucking, we're not scored, ass!
Like, Liverpool is very insular and I've got a
t-shirt that's
got Liverpool
and England
written on it
with a line
through England
and it's like
we're not
English
we're Scouse
sort of thing
it's got that
identity
it's a nice
t-shirt
and Liverpool
it's not a very
sort of
Brexit shagging
British flag
in your Twitter
bio type of place
it's just not
that type of place
and then because
there was a lockdown
and you weren't allowed to go anywhere,
for the first time ever,
people celebrated VE Day.
That was one of the funniest bits of the first lockdown.
Victory in Europe Day!
What's that?
I don't know,
but it means I can have a pint in the garden
with Geoff from next door.
So I've put some bunting up.
Let's get the fucking fire on.
Just any excuse to just not be sat in your fucking house
on a sweltering day.
I saw because
this is the first
time I've been to
Liverpool since
what's since what's
happened
hey you're not in
Liverpool lad
get your fucking
binge right
but it was
but from the
outside it seemed
like Liverpool was
just going mental
because every night
on the news there
was videos of like
people rioting in
Liverpool and
well this is the
thing this is why you shouldn't watch the fucking BBC and Sky News, mate,
because they try and vilify the North and Liverpool in particular
because we tell them to go fuck themselves.
What news should you watch then, Adam, if you're not going to watch...
LFCTV.
LFCTV!
Loads of news about Brexit, the COVID vaccine,
and fucking Jeannie Wynaldum.
This does sort of have the vibe of a conspiracy theory YouTube channel.
You just need like a Brexit, not a Union Jack flag.
Or an England flag, yeah.
Mate, we literally can't have a Union Jack up.
I just don't think it's going to suit our look.
Two white guys.
Some of the jokes we do around accents aren't going to work well in front of us.
Yeah, Liverpool's been sound. Some of the jokes we do around accents aren't going to work well in front of, like, for the kids.
Yeah, Liverpool's being sound.
What happened was, when they put the curfew in place of 10 o'clock,
that's when things seemed to go a bit mental,
because they let literally every pub in Liverpool out at 10 o'clock at the same time. And, like, Liverpool's not like London.
Do you know what I mean?
In London, if you miss the tube, there's another one in 45 seconds.
In Liverpool, if you miss the bus,
you've missed the bus.
You've got to walk home from town.
Do you know what I mean?
Yeah.
So, yeah.
I was surprised when I went into Liverpool.
It is weird because Liverpool's reputation
is almost sort of, like,
Liverpool leans into it, doesn't it?
Like, we don't fucking...
Like, I do this podcast so regularly with you.
And then I went to Liverpool to do that hot water stream show.
And I just expected everyone to be like, ah, fuck it, we do what we want.
And then to get in there and be like, the streets were relatively fucking empty.
There was hardly anyone there.
Did you wander into London at any point to have a look?
Because I must be tempting to go and do the 28 Days Later thing and have a little mooch.
I was walking around all the time. I found it really sort of quite interesting to walk
around and it was all dead everywhere. It's quite weird.
You're saying no one outside the M&M store in London. It's fucking weird, aren't it?
Yeah.
What a travesty. How will this economy get back going if the M&M store is shut?
Surely the biggest tragedy of the coronavirus,
the M&M store going under.
The thing with Liverpool, though,
being like, you're like,
oh, fuck it, you know,
no, we'll do what we want.
Oh, no, I'm not saying it is.
It's just the perception, isn't it?
Perception.
That you help me believe.
Yeah, yeah, totally.
But that is also what is portrayed in the news,
isn't it?
For everyone who doesn't live in Liverpool,
it is portrayed as like...
My uncle visited in August.
He lives Eastbourne.
Yeah.
And he was like,
got off the train, picked him up,
and he was like,
oh, this is Chester City Centre,
which is meek and mild at the best times.
He's like, oh, it's actually quite normal, isn't it?
I was like, what the fuck do you think is going on?
Just like everyone licking each other
and fucking dogging. The was must have been perceived as like on fire or something yeah
liverpool's got a very strong uh identity of socialism and and the the ideology of socialism
in liverpool is very very popular so because it was drilled into a lot of people and also there's
no one more importance in Liverpool than your nan.
Your nan is fucking, you know, we worship our nans.
It's your nan, then God, and then maybe someone else.
Maybe Yamar after that.
Your nan's number one.
It was drilled in early on.
Jürgen's not far back.
That's what I meant by God.
Fair one.
But it was drilled in early on.
If you go out
and you're mixing with your mates
you might kill your nan
and if you tell that to Liverpool
they will go
although we don't like the government
we don't like being told
what to fucking do
it's like
look I fucking hate Boris Johnson
but I really fuck
I love me nan more than I hate Boris Johnson
I honestly think
if the message had been that clear
it would have done more good
and I'm
you know
I don't think the government
are ever going to come to you Adam
to do many adverts but I think you could have done great fucking work
if you'd have had a nationally televised i'd be like look lad your fucking nana will be gone stay
in your fucking house i think it'd be great what's the what's the liverpool obsession with the nan
why is that a thing scouse nan that sounded so southern what's the liverpool obsession
with the nan always i don't understand there's a lot of sc's the Liverpool obsession with the nan?
I don't understand.
There's a lot of Scousers who live with their nan,
despite the fact their parents are alive and well.
And those kids are always a bit fucking weird.
Nan kids.
What?
Nan kids.
Nan kids.
They live with me, nan me.
Oh, what happened to your mum and dad?
They fucking live two streets away.
They just can't fucking put up with me.
It happens quite a lot.
Really?
The nan kids of Liverpool. There'll be people watching this who have there'll be a few
nan kids watching who are like he doesn't mean me you as well and there'll be people watching going
i've got a nan kid mate and they're a bit fucking tapped do you know any what do you know any i've
got a few nan kid mates yeah yeah and they they live always two streets away from the mar so that
they can be sent to the mars whenever they fucking need but they live in the nan's box room because the mar maybe had them a little bit
too young i was like i can't fucking deal with this and then am i was like i'll fucking take him
you carry on you carry on listen i'm 39 but i'll do it again
tom did you do you know any nan kids from where you're from it doesn't sound like a very london
thing i don't think so i think my my dad i remember said that the first the first flat he lived in when he moved
out was his nan's house but that but it feels like a thing from the past doing that yeah moving in
with your nan is your first i mean not to paint too fucking depressing a light on it it's because
someone's fucked up like it's a it's a hard thing isn't it
if your nan has to step up and raise you someone's in prison on drugs or just having a fucking
nightmare normally but these liverpool nan kids that's not what i'm talking about
what do you mean they on paper they've just like mom i'm leaving she's got all the fucking blue
ribbons i'd love to stay mom but nan's got all the best biscuits ribbons I'd love to stay mum
but Nan's got all the best biscuits
you see you're taking the piss
but yeah
my two cousins did that
there's a load of kids in Liverpool
who live with their Nan
their parents live round the corner
how old are we talking
they're there from when they're a kid
until like the 27 and they eventually move out
they grow up in their Nan's house
but on paper
like from an outsider
I'm sure
if you go and see their therapist
they'll tell you
that there's underlying issues
but from an outsider
it's just
I live with me nan lad
why
what happened to your ma
she lives a few streets away
with me dad
what are you fucking on about
why is that weird
it's not lad
you crack on with your day
don't ask too many questions
they've got a look in their eye
and you're a bit scared of them
full of fucking biscuits and don't want to be judged honestly
kids are semi-common i am making it out like it's like a chris rock bit about you know when you're
the kids are being raised by grandma and it's all about basically in that i've seen those chris rock
bits and it's basically about drug abuse isn't it yeah and so in my head i'm like oh shit it must be
like because of yeah it's a serious and you're like nah they're just nearer
the bus stop that could be it that could be it it's 100 i like plastic sofas
amazing please look i'm telling you right now can we have a shout out for the nan kids
comment on this video on youtube if you know a nan kid
and this is definitely
going to be a social media clip
so tag a nan kid
in below this
I guarantee you
this becomes one of the most
interactive videos
we've ever done
because they're fucking everywhere
and they're all
there's something wrong
with all of them
you can't put your finger on it
you can't put your finger on it
because you'll be sitting around
in a group with them
at the pub
and everything's just
a bit fucking normal.
Everything's sound.
But every now and then you look over,
and they're just like a little...
And you're like, oh, I don't know what that was.
And you're like, yeah, don't ask any questions, lad.
Diabetes.
Well, they've got a little twitch going on.
Yeah.
Yeah, you know that interaction?
I'm not sure it's going to come to, like,
be a lot of London people like,
oh, my God, I did spend a summer.
I remember my grandparents,
they've got a lovely villa in Provence.
Yeah.
Where's Provence?
France.
France.
I was going to say the south of France,
but then I'm not.
The south of Provence.
Provence.
France.
In Provence.
Have you ever lived with your nan, Adam?
I used to go and stay a bit.
On a weekend sometimes,
I'd just ask my mum,
can I go and stay with my nan?
Oh, yeah, that's a touch oh hang on
hang on that's not a
Liverpool thing
no
that's fucking
getting looked after
by someone who
really likes you
yeah that's quality
isn't it
your grandparents
have regrets from
how much they
fucked your mar up
don't they
and they try and
atone for that by
raising you better
that is classic
isn't it like your
parents have got to
lay down the fucking
law otherwise you end up a wrongan or like getting run over grandparents like come round and i will
just yeah don't tell your mom i gave you where do your grandparents live i had grandparents around
the corner and then i had grandparents where my mom was from about 25 minutes down the road she
was she grew up near blackpool so uh we had my nana and granddad were
my mom's parents and they had my sister every time so if my mom and dad were away yeah my sister went
there and then my grand and pop pop's still alive he's 95 he's got four types of cancer and refuses
to die and uh he's such a heart it's great i've said it on the pod before he got told he had
leukemia by the doctor my dad was with him they drove off and he just the first thing he said my dad was like what do you think dad and he went what
a load of rubbish and that was two years ago and the leukemia is sort of gone
it's the most northern response to finding you out that is the most you've got leukemia i haven't
bollocks i'm gonna just live
to prove a fucking point i but we always went i always went to them because my gran was bless her
she's been dead 20 years but she had raised my dad and she only wanted to be really only wanted
to be grandchild to a boy yeah so it was really noticeable when it was like right mum and dad are
away for the weekend and obviously i'm going to Gran's and you're going to Nana's
because she was like, I'll have Daniel
because she just wanted to deal with boys.
So my sister's got a little bit of resentment about that.
So my nan and my grandad, my mum's parents,
they lived about 15 minutes away in a taxi
and then my grandad...
They live in a taxi?
They lived in a taxi.
Big black one though, you know,
plenty of room in the back for a bit of banging.
Why?
Why did you do it to yourself?
No one even did it to you then I've never seen me like
I've got nothing
Against my nan and my grandad
Getting what they need
Okay?
People have needs
You've got to get over it
You're fucking my love
Mate
Wait, wait
I've seen us do banter
But I've never seen someone
Do it to themselves
Like, yeah, yeah
They were good people
I love the dick
that's how much abuse
we give each other
we start doing it to ourselves
and my dad's dad
so my dad's mum died
long before I was born
my dad's dad lived
around the corner
and he used to have a
a round that he did every day
so in very typical
Liverpool style
a lot of my family
lived in Dovecote
which is the area
in Liverpool I'm from
yeah
so my grandad lived there sounds quite nice Dovecote it lived in Dovecote, which is the area of Liverpool I'm from.
So my grandad lived there.
Sounds quite nice, Dovecote.
It's not.
Dovecote.
It's... It sounds nice, doesn't it?
It's like Warrington, but with more directions.
Is that near Provence?
It is.
It's the Provence of East Liverpool.
That's an old one.
Yeah.
So my grandad lived there, and in the morning, he'd go to me auntie Maisie's and have a cup
of tea and maybe a bit of breakfast. Then he'd go to me auntie carol's and he would stay in me auntie carol's
all day because she lived over the road from the bookies literally over the road and he would go
and every horse race he would go and put a 20 pence bet on and then go and watch it in me auntie's
and then go back and put either collectors winnings or put his next bet on with more money
he'd go back to 20 fucking pence
yeah he wasn't trying
to become a millionaire
he was trying to pass
the time
imagine the woman at
William Hill like
alright Derek
here you go kid
usual bet
his name was John
actually
sorry
don't get his fucking
name wrong
sorry
the plasterer
and he was just
making 20 pence bets
with all that
he'd made his money
cathedral money
did he leave all the winnings to you?
He did, yeah. £4.57.
Took him 25 years to win.
It wasn't money, he left me just the ticket.
The 208 at Doncaster.
That's a working class inheritance.
I leave to you a seat at William Hill.
He'd go back and forth from there.
Then he'd go to my auntie Maisie's again on the way home for another cup of tea.
And then he'd call into mine.
And even after my mum and dad split up and my dad had moved out,
he would still come to ours to see me, my little brother and my ma.
And my ma cooked his full tea every night.
So she made an extra tea for him.
And this is, I don't know how i feel about admitting this on the pod
but it's i suppose it's a good story my granddad john for one reason or another a very old man
was a sun reader he read i honestly wondered what you were going to say that it made you question
whether you're going to say it and then totally forgot that the sun is in the whole of liverpool
he he used to read the sun which in Liverpool is just they probably sell
about 10 copies a day now
it's non-existent really
I remember when
Chris Turner
comedian Chris Turner
I did Baby Blue
with him once
and he turned up
and he was like
have you been in a newsagent's
there and asked to buy The Sun
and he told me to get
the fuck out of his shop
what's going on
and I was like
we don't buy it yet
that might have just been
Chris Turner though
I did a tour show.
I did a tour show in Liverpool.
And in 2017, I won the Sun's Best New Comedian.
And it was on the tour poster.
And there were posters in Liverpool.
And my agent was like, maybe take that off the the tour poster. And there were posters in Liverpool. And my agent was like,
maybe take that off the Liverpool tour poster.
Yeah, serious, man.
That's the example of him talking about it being parochial
and the thing with socialism and the sticking together.
It's a city divided by two football teams.
But that's not a Liverpool thing.
That's a Liverpool and Everton thing.
Is that a City of All? Yeah, it's not a Liverpool thing that's a Liverpool and Everton thing Is that a
City of all
But is that
what year
are you talking about
what year would
this have been
are you talking about
It was post Hillsborough
Okay
Yeah
because I wasn't
even born when
Hillsborough happened
but I remember
at one point
I went into
the news agents
Nina's News
it's called
on Dovecote Shops in Liverpool and it's called in on dovecote shops in liverpool
and uh it's ran by a woman called nina and her husband alan we're running together
that's how they've been seeing some of my shows in the past couple years like
your local news agents are supporting you on your fucking career that's amazing like i love it
dovecote so everyone knows each other so So, like, I went in one day,
and I'd been in my Auntie Carol's for a bit,
and my granddad went,
go over to Shop Forest, get me the sun.
And I went over, because I had no idea when I was a child.
Yeah, yeah.
And Alan said, no.
He went, if your granddad wants...
He went, who's that for?
I was like, it's for my granddad.
He went, if your granddad wants to be reading this thing,
then he can come and get it himself.
I'm not serving this to a kid.
So why did he have it?
Why did Nina's have it?
You legally have to stock
any mainstream newspaper.
A newsagent can't refuse to stock it,
but they can refuse service to anyone.
Wow.
So it's a really weird legal thing.
And me grandad...
So there's a lot of fish and chips
in Merseyside
eaten out of really fresh sun newspapers.
You won't see it?
No.
You're going to a shop. They won't even put fish in it. So what sun newspapers you won't see it so you'll go into a shop
they won't even put fish in it
so what's
they won't
the fish are like
they won't even
no they won't
like they'll literally
they'll put one out
on the thing
and they'll just cover it
with another newspaper
so you'll never see it
yeah
so where
it's very common
for people to go in
there's no delivery
what do you mean
so because you said
they're legally obliged
to sell it
to stock it yeah
they just go in the bin they just have one and then the rest will go in the bin but they no the shops can't really do that What do you mean? Because you said they're legally obliged to sell it. To stock it, yeah.
Do they just go in the bin?
Do they just have one and then the rest will go in the bin?
But the shops can't really do that because they could get us to be in trouble.
But you know on the newspaper stand where there's the mirror, the mail, this, that?
Yeah, yeah.
So someone will put three copies of the mirror over the pile of suns, right?
And then if someone comes in, the shop will be like,
oh, a customer must have done it. So you won't see it there and it's very very common for someone i've done this to go into
like a tesco and get the pile of sons and just put them behind the frosties do you know what i mean
just take them out yeah you won't see all the frosties off the shelf put them at the back so
no one can get it why do the why do the son bother sending papers to Liverpool?
They must be making a massive loss.
I think also another part of the legality of it,
and I might be speaking out of tenny, I don't really know what I'm talking about.
I'm pretty sure they have to
send it to every news agent
as a stock thing.
But when Alan refused to sell me that
copy of The Sun, I went and spoke to my
grandad and I was like, he won't sell me it because of this.
And my grandad was like, oh, fucking bock's that.
And I remember years later after I'd looked into it and found out the whole thing about it.
Because I was literally a child.
I must have been about seven or eight when this happened.
I'd just been sent.
You're forgiven.
Everyone gets it.
You're like, I didn't know everyone.
Because of that, my grandad eventually stopped reading it.
Because of that interaction.
Just sort of shamed him.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Really? Yeah. You can't like. So, of shamed him. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Really?
Yeah.
You can't, like... So, Sun Comedian of the Year there, Tom Lucy.
We've got a new comedian.
Woo!
Yeah.
What an awards night that must have been.
Yeah.
What was that?
It was a thing they...
I don't think they do it anymore.
It was the Edinburgh Festival,
and I remember some, like, coked-up Sun journalist came to watch my gig,
and then I got this award afterwards, which doesn't mean anything.
Yeah.
But it was, like, it was published in the Sun.
I don't want to say their name again now.
Fuck them off.
Right.
Yeah.
No.
Like, I want them bleeping every single...
No.
You can do that.
Let's see how much you want them bleeping.
Oh, I fucking hate them bleeping. Oh, I fucking
hate them so much.
But yeah,
I just went
the grandparent route
and it just sparked
that memory in my head.
Grim.
Can we have a break?
Yeah.
Do you need a little minute?
I need a minute.
You need a watch?
He needs a minute
to read the fucking mirror.
Should we all have
a shower together?
Wow, Tommy.
There's probably one
next door,
don't you fucking...
I'ma like that.
I'ma like that.
We'll be back
after these messages

Tom, have you ever done any gigs on the Isle of Man?
I have, yeah.
Could you imagine if you went, no?
More Kevin Webster, please.
No, we were just having a little chat there in the break
about you've not done the gig on the Isle of Man.
There's one gig on the Isle of Man.
I was meant to do the gig on the Isle of Man,
literally on the 17th of March, and on the 15le of Man. I was meant to do the gig on the Isle of Man. Literally on like the 17th of March.
Yeah.
And on the 15th, we got put into national lockdown.
It's a bit of a ball late from the Northwest as well.
Like getting down to Hampshire's a ball late
to then have to wait for a ferry as well.
Oh, you're thinking of the Isle of Wight?
Oh no, that's the Isle of Wight.
The Isle of Wight is basically fucking...
Oh, it's over the water.
Oh, right.
Yeah, okay.
Yeah, it's very near Liverpool, isn't it?
Yeah.
Oh, I take it all back.
That's our island. Yeah, there's a fucking Sc, isn't it? Yeah. Oh, take it all back. That's our island.
Yeah, there's a fucking Scouse thing with the Isle of Man.
Right.
One of our old mates who we used to work with, Nick,
he's Scouse, but he's from the Isle of Man,
but he's got a Scouse accent.
Yeah.
It's very strange, the Isle of Man.
Yeah.
Very strange.
They have cats with three legs, don't they?
What?
Is it three legs?
Two dicks?
What?
Manx cats?
Manx cats? Yeah. They've got two two dicks or is it no tail there's
something wrong with them anyway right tell me are you like what they fly the cats fly please google
man cats from the isle of man because there's a bit there's something wrong with cats in the
isle of man what's the capital no tails no tails what's it called oh and three dicks
douglas is it called doug Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Is it a country?
No, but it's got like a...
A capital.
Not a capital, but like counties have got like a...
It's a principality, isn't it?
Is that what it's called?
Is it?
I think so.
Thank you.
Dick Edgerton Recorder.
No, it can't be a principality,
because that means there'd be a Prince of the Isle of Man.
Is that a requisite, yeah?
Well, Wales is a principality, and there's the Prince of Wales. Is it a prince of the Isle of Man. Is that a requisite, yeah? Well, Wales is a principality, and there's the prince of Wales.
There is a prince of the Isle of Man.
Here comes the bullshit.
No, it is.
Here comes the bullshit.
There is a prince of the Isle of Man.
Thinking time.
What's his name?
He's giving himself thinking time.
How many dicks has he got?
Maybe it's a Provence.
Oh, Tom Lucy. It's actually prince it's yeah yeah he's dead now
prince yeah don't have to be beautiful it's famous for being like a tax haven the isle of man
people so like lewis hamilton got in trouble for putting his bank account in the isle of man
and then in order to have a bank account in the Isle of Man.
And then in order to have a bank account in the Isle of Man,
you've got to sign the document on Isle of Man ground.
So he famously flew his private plane to the Isle of Man,
got off the plane, signed the contract and got back on the plane and flew back to London.
Yeah.
Why would you pick the Isle of Man as your tax haven when you could just pick Monaco?
Well, he lives in Monaco.
He lives in Monaco, yeah. He's got a lot of tax. That makes it even fucking weirder. He's as your tax haven when you could just pick Monaco well he lives in Monaco he lives in Monaco yeah he's got a lot of tax
that makes it even
fucking weirder
he's already in tax haven
yeah maybe it's better
in the Isle of Man
I don't know
but it's part of the UK
isn't it
you should get a tax guy
on here
and talk about it
it's part of the UK
so I think it will be
linked to that
it's like Guernsey
he's got to show some
Guernsey's the same
yeah
is there any word
you can't say
on the Isle of Man
Carl got bored with the HMRC Guernsey's the same. Yeah. Is there any word you can't say on the Isle of Man?
Carl got bored with the HMRC inquiry.
That was the lack of knowledge between the three of us.
Yeah, there's cats with no dicks, and they can levitate,
and I think it's Prince, the King of the Isle of Man.
And you don't have to pay tax, they use fucking rubles next question yeah so the point is that i went there to do the gig and and uh the promoter of the gig said
just so you know there's a word we're not you're not allowed to say here and he couldn't tell you
what it was no no they got something else, they got something else. They call it something else, which I've forgotten.
But the word rat is like, you can't say it on the Isle of Man.
You can never do a Have A Weird Live show on the Isle of Man.
My God.
It goes back like hundreds of years to some old superstition.
Oh, yeah.
Why?
What are they saying, Jamie?
It's a superstition with the long tail, which is the cat, I think.
Oh, so they cut the tails off cats?
So it's something to do with rats?
In case there's secret rats.
It's something to do with, yeah.
And they never use the three-letter R,
whatever that means.
So it must be the letter.
No words.
Three letters with an R.
Oh, three letters with an R.
So rat has got R and then three letters.
So they never use letters with.
I'll say rig.
Art.
Rob.
Oh, it's just rat.
Oh, right. Rob. Just rat. My dad's got it. Rob. My dad's got it. Rob. Rod. Ron. so they never use letters i'll say rig art rob it's just rat all right just rat
rod ron yeah red red
yeah but i thought i thought that was like that that would that would be a bit of like an old
superstition,
but no one takes it that seriously.
But they're into it.
But they are fucking serious about it.
Because as a comedian, it's the worst thing to do is go,
don't say this word.
And at the gig, on stage, I said,
oh, apparently there's a word I'm not allowed to say,
thinking that would get a bit of laughter.
Dead silence in the room.
Get cancer!
Do you know what they call them cancer do you know what they call them
do you know
what they call them
yeah I can't remember
but what is it
big fellas
big fellas
rats
that's it
they're referred to
as big fellas
yeah
that sounds so random
it sounds scousey
I told you
there's a scouse thing
in the island man
that sounds
I had to get
the fucking
exterminated
out like
here the fucking
big fella
rummaging around the cupboard that's mate Johnny I had to get the fucking exterminator out lad I had the fucking big fella rummaging around
the cupboard
that's mate
Johnny Bongo
talking about
the three lads
on the back there
on the card
that reminds me
of some of the
big fellas
in the fucking
walls
you'll have to
send the exterminator
out
we've got the
big fellas
and they're under
the fucking
flower beds
your gypsy accent
really kills me
you know
of all the dodgy accents we do on this podcast
Every now and then
It's allowed because they're white in your head now
And that's why it's allowed now
If they were a proper ethnic minority
I'd be a little bit more careful about it you know
Are you saying they're not a proper ethnic minority?
I don't know but I'm glad we've not got a union jack behind me right now
I'll tell you that
for fucking sure
got a question here
do you have a favourite
accent to do Tom
do you do any accents
not really
come on Sam
come on
the box is gone Adam
the box is gone
ah yes
are you going to try
and make me do a gypsy accent
no you
what can you
no no you
that'll be a nice little clip
for your social media
completely out of context Tom Le something she was on have a word hello there i don't know about
just living with your nana bullshit but i know what words you can't say any other manner
and any accents do you ever work with a comic who's like got a strong accent
and you find yourself doing the accent i say what i used to do a lot and I had to stop it
is when I was going to do a gig
I'd be listening to some comedian
and then at the gig
I would basically just do an impression
of whoever I was listening to
on the way there.
Dad inflections and stuff.
Still your material.
Yes, I'd be doing stuff about
growing up in Guildford
but with Chris Rock's voice.
Guildford is a motherfucker! To the window! stuff about growing up in guilford but with chris rocks too many hills and shit every uphill you go up a hill you come back you still go up a fucking hill still a hill what's with all the hills still a hill there's two types of uphill
there's hills and there's mountains. And hills have got to go.
Chris Rock's guilt for this.
Yeah, yeah.
Started doing the gig in a red suit as well.
Oh, my God.
When I'm driving late at night,
I'm not looking over my shoulder for mountains.
I'm looking for hills.
I'll tell you what, though.
It's still...
If you watch, like...
I don't know if you get this,
but if i ever watch
like a comedian's special and then and then that i i think in their voice for like a day or two
and then you're you're thinking of ideas for routines but they're they're not they're routines
that would be great for whoever you watch but not for you have you seen nate bargatze nate
bargatze special the tennessee kid on netflix I've been doing stand-up 17 years when I watch that.
He's my age.
It's not like I'm young and he's more experienced.
And for a month, I could feel myself doing it,
going, talk like you talk, Dan.
There's something about that special.
I loved it.
He doesn't swear.
He's one of those comics that, on purpose,
doesn't deliver it very polished yeah you know like there's that style like chris rock is super polished yeah
he he uses like word for word he used like almost powerpoint words yeah like he will repeat the
premise a few times and then the other style there's like that a caster like nervous on purpose
almost and nate bargazzi does a little
bit of that almost doesn't know his script on purpose and that's so not my style for a whole
fucking month i was like what are you doing and it's just because it it got in my i think that's
i feel like that's the sign of uh a great comedian when like you when they've got such a distinctive
style yeah you can that you can you can think of an idea and go,
oh, that feels like a Louis C.K. idea.
I am.
Yeah.
No, that's a bad example.
You're a hero.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Stay there, love.
I think I've told you this before off pod.
I had to stop doing a routine because I named Bargatty.
So, weirdly, someone introduced me to it.
It was probably Freddie, like most of the American comedians that I don't know yet.
And, like, John Mulaney, Freddie Quinn was like, you need to watch this guy.
And I went on YouTube and found a Nate Bargatze routine that he did on, like, a late night show.
It reminds me of, like, Conan or something.
And it's almost, word for word word one of my routines so i did a routine for a bit about uh the insanity
training program and it was like uh they show you the before and the after photo and i'm like mate
how do i get your before that i'll do i'd be happy with the before that'll do me i've seen him do
that bit yeah i haven't even remembered that yeah yeah he yeah, yeah. And he does that, but with P90X. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And I seen it, and I was like,
it's almost like one of us has nicked it off the other one.
It's that ridiculously similar.
I'd never heard of the lad, and I was like,
this is fucking, and it's on, he's done it on Conan or whatever.
And I just had to stop doing the bit.
Do you think that happens?
Because it's too similar.
Do you think that, because I think that happens,
because people always, they jump to the conclusion
that like so-and-so's stolen a routine,
but I see it happen quite a lot where two comics have got pretty similar bits.
Yeah, but this isn't like that.
Like, I get that.
I've seen that happen a thousand times,
where two comics independently have gone,
I'm going to write a bit about walking the dog,
and, you know, what it's like to pick your shit,
like, a common thing like that.
I've got a bit about walking the dog.
But there's certain comics you're like, you don't, when a joke is like that I've got a bit about walking the dog but there's certain
comics you're like
you don't
when the joke is like
say Gav Webster
or an actor
that's got a really
specific style
and way of thinking
they're the ones
where you're like
probably not going to
have the same joke
as that person
but if you're doing
observational storytelling
there's a chance
you're going to have
overlap
but if you'd have seen
Nate Barghatty's routine
and then seen me do mine, or vice versa,
you'd have gone up to either me or him and gone,
that's Adam's bit, or that's Nate's bit.
It's so strikingly the same.
Wow.
He's still pissed off about it.
Comics are definitely guilty.
And I've definitely done it before where I've gone,
I've got a new idea
for a bit about this
and I do it
and Danny McLaughlin
will go
Joe's got a really
similar bit to that
this guy
and I go
I remember I worked
with him nine months
ago and it's probably
gone in and I've
forgot about it
that happens and you
just stop doing it
because you've been
sort of inspired
to a bad extent
but I didn't know
who Nate was
never heard of him
and it was just
really really really pissed me off Tennessee Kid really well done I remember doing it extent but i i didn't know nate was never heard of him and it was just mate go watch nate really
really really never heard of him tennessee kid really well done i remember i used to do a routine
about gout and and uh i remember you got it when someone goes mate so-and-so's got a great gout bit
well this but a lot of people then started saying to me that john robbins has got a famous gout
story i was like yeah but we can both have story we could both talk about
gout it's not like we're not doing the same joke yeah that that but it used to happen almost every
gig i'd do it someone another comic would go oh just so you know john robbins has got a gout bit
yeah i saw a comedian frog years ago he'd written a whole bit about alanis morissette's song
ironic the joke was it's not ironic is it and he broke it down he did the
whole bit it got laughs and then he came off and went yeah i think that went pretty well that's my
new bit and everyone's like what ed burns most favorite bit of comedy and he was like and and
you know when you can judge the reaction yeah like we're like humans are very perceptive about when you can call bullshit he was so
clearly gutted
because he'd spent
fucking
ages
writing it all out
and then we'd all go
yeah Ed Byrne got
famous off that bit
in the late 90s
idiot
yeah
and he was gutted
and he just had to
never ever do it again
but he hadn't robbed it
or seen it
I could tell
the way he did it
he did it so badly on stage
yeah that if he nicked it it would have been better yeah but he was getting laughs because
it's a funny premise yeah but it was the way he reacted he went oh you're kidding oh fuck i was
like yeah there's a man who's just wasted but there's a lot three days of writing and practicing
it happens quite regularly with like big a-list comics where they get accused of stealing
routines and i and i and i i reckon because a lot of those big without naming names a lot of those
big comedians that have writers that work with them yeah and it might be that one of their writers
has seen it it's gone into the back of their head they've then pitched it to the guy he's he's now
doing it completely unaware that it's come
from one of his writers who saw it from an open spot comic also they're touring with themselves
aren't they they once you got off the circuit yeah you only didn't know what's going on so
so comics who are doing hour and a half they write their hour and a half when are they watching like
we're constantly if you're on the circuit, you're constantly watching all different. You'll work with hundreds of acts a year.
I've got to say something, guys.
I do think that there's got to be some cunty writers, though,
who are like, I've got to write for fucking, I don't know,
I've got to write for fucking Ahmad Jalili,
so I'm going to just go down a comedy club,
write down my favourite bits, and Ahmad will never know.
And Ahmad's fans will just think that is.
There's definitely country writers
who are going to comedy clubs and shystering.
And then Omid's got 10 minutes on the insanity routine.
About living with his nan.
I'd like to think,
because obviously we've all got aspirations
to get bigger and bigger as a comic and do big tours.
I don't, I'm done.
Is this you?
Yeah, yeah.
Once you've won the comedian of the year, new comedian of the year 2017.
He just wants to do new material on Wednesdays, a top secret in London.
With a cap on.
Happily, just covered in fucking brick dust.
I don't think I'd ever get writers for me stand up.
I'd quite like having some plastic cut boys around me.
Was that what Kevin Hart calls
his crew
yes mate
plastic cut boys
he does
he fucking does
and then he's got
about 8 guys
he's just got his
mates
you must have
heard of this
the plastic cut boys
no I haven't
he's got about
8 mates of his
that are all
old school friends
and they just
travel around
and they all
write for him
and open for him
I went to see him
do his Netflix
special at the O2 and and he had
about nine support acts before he really does he gets all the plastic cut boys out and the crowd
are humored for the first classic plastic cut boy and by the second one they're like yeah i went and
we went to he does a stand-up routine about going to see kevin hart and about and about the company i've now stolen yours no sorry one of
my writers gave me that i on in the bit i've retold the story of going to watch it but it wasn't i
really wasn't talking about kevin hart i was talking about the compare yeah because the compare
he's called spank spank horton is his name. We love it! He was particularly painful to watch.
Because I knew what he was doing.
He had a tricky job on his hand.
He also, what I found really difficult is,
I've never heard so many warnings about filming a gig.
Oh, yeah.
It was unbelievable.
From the moment you sat down...
It was quite hostile, wasn't it?
It was hostile.
But on the fifth warning, I was like,
wow, they are really getting this across
that you cannot film the show.
It was if they care that much.
But he must have said it 30 times.
Why not do that thing that all the Americans do
where they put your phone in a pouch?
Why not do that thing?
I think this was pre...
The one you went to was pre-pouchers
because they're only about two or three years old, aren't they?
This is 2016, 2015 maybe that I went. The other thing i found weird about going to watch it is because they were
shooting it for netflix before kevin hart even came on stage the warm-up guy was telling the
crowd they were getting shots of the crowd laughing so he was like oh what we need you to do now is
laugh as if you've heard the funniest joke ever and we'll get shot to the crowd and the in that might work in america but in england in london everyone was like well we'll
laugh when you say something funny we're just gonna laugh we've paid 60 fucking genuinely
the atmosphere in the arena started to turn a bit where people i could hear people shouting out
where the fuck's kevin it started, if it had gone on much longer,
it would have got a bit tense
because people were like, what the fuck's this?
Those Paper Cup boys, I think there was three sets.
Yeah.
And it was, including the compare,
we thought we turned up late.
It was an eight o'clock start.
We got in there at ten to eight.
He only went on at about nine, ten past nine.
So there was over an hour of his
support acts yeah and one of them was pretty good one the one before kevin hart i would say
main support yeah he could have yeah but he was just the first two i was like this is just
objectively i've come to enjoy myself pretty poor comedy
and it was getting titters
it was getting laughs
but if I'm honest
the guy before Kevin Hart
was better than Kevin Hart
the night I saw him
I remember that guy yeah
and then Laura was like
why
he was quite good
why do you think he was better
and I was like
because he's doing
his best comedy
ever
if they started out together him
and kevin hart which i guess is they're his mates from when they started out in comedy yeah yeah
that's 20 years of of set so that's his best material in 20 years kevin hart's doing his
fifth special at that point or whatever yeah so he's on his fifth hour and it showed yeah where
did you see it manchester manchester the emmy and yeah MEN yeah I went to the O2 one
have you played the O2
because I know you
I was the spank horse
because I know you
Jack Whitehall
you've done some big
tour sports haven't you
I did
I've done a couple of
tours with Jack Whitehall
where I've been the support act
and they've been in arenas
so we've done
hi Jack
would you like to come on the podcast
you're welcome on the couch anytime
I think Jack would be terrified in here
would he
yeah I think
Jack's quite shy actually
I think you would scare him
that's so funny
yeah
now I want him in more than ever
we'll come in
but you did the O2
with Jack
yeah we did
we did four nights
at the O2
which was
which was
and we had
now I'm saying it
we had a couple of support acts
me and Lloyd Griffith did it
nice
so Lloyd went on first
and then I went on
and then Jack went on
but
how was it
how did you
did you feel like you
like four
O2
O2 arenas
yeah
so on the first one
were you nervy
by the fourth one
was it better
luckily like the
the London dates
were at the end of the tour
so we'd done
all the arenas
around the country
so by that point we were quite used to it.
But it's still like the O2 is different to...
Yeah, it's 20,000, isn't it?
It's got that, yeah, it's got that sort of...
So what did you have to do differently?
I'm fascinated by this.
By that point, you knew how to...
It's a weird...
It's very different gigging in a theatre or a club.
Everything is much slower.
So you get through a lot less material than you would in a theatre or a club it's everything is much slower so like you you get through a lot less material than you would in a in a theatre because you just have a lot comes in waves right down yeah
and and you feel like you're going too slowly but you're not you have to really slow down why is
that just because just because you go to such a massive room and like if you talk too quickly
because your voice is literally echoing around the room it'll just like if you talk too quickly because your voice is literally echoing
around the room it'll just get lost you talk too quickly like one of the speakers is still saying
what you said yeah three seconds ago while the other one's saying and also so i didn't know this
but some of the arenas in the country have better much better sounds than others yeah the o2 is
really good but like sheffield arena is terrible for sound because it's an ice rink so sheffield
arena when they have gigs there they put seats on the ice so the ice on the ground that's so
yorkshire in it right we're having an arena right we need a floor floor they can just slip and slide
to the bastard seat amazing amazing but they you know your career's going alright if you're sat here slagging off arenas
like
I slag off gigs
in Sheffield
just because
they're shit gigs
you're like
oh damn
let me tell you
once you've done
the O2
the Nottingham Arena
is a nightmare
amazing
I just remember
the Sheffield one
because
because of the ice
about halfway
through the night
this sort of like
mist starts to appear around me.
It's fucking melting, Jack!
Because of all the heat of everyone sat on it,
this kind of mist starts to appear.
As if it melted, you know, this fell into a big pool.
How beautiful would that look?
Like it's a Jean-Michel Jarre concert
and smoke rises up as you're...
That's what a reference that was. as you're trying to do your bits oh that's fucking brilliant now how does i suppose it's a bit of a hairy question but
you you do an arena tour you're not a mug you know how many people are there is the pay like
is it done for the whole tour is this something you're allowed to say on
i'm always fascinated by this when because i've had offers of support not loads and it's like a
big room and they're like obviously it's the 150 pound tour support you're like you're doing the
maths of the rest of the room i know they're not here for me people there they're paying for me
do you know what i that i've done a couple of tours with him,
and the first tour,
he came on stage on a horse.
He thought it would be funny to come on horseback.
It just sort of plays up to his posh persona.
So we travelled around the country with a horse in a horse box.
I'd love to do that, a hot water, you know?
Yeah.
Trying to get through that little gap in the fucking audience.
You'd have to have a little pony.
Fucking calm down, shit girl!
No, come on now, Adam, get on the stage now.
Fucking Shamrock's getting edgy, come on now.
That'd be brilliant.
You know, after the pandemic, there's not going to be any horse entries.
The country's in recession, the government's fucking ploughing all this money inside.
It's like, oh, she's too nice to raise her everyone. Jack jack whitehall's gonna have to work on his image a bit like should we do horse for 2021
it was it was pretty funny to come on stage in an arena on horseback because the horse would
sort of walk through the crowd to the stage it was pretty funny but uh yeah anyway we tried
how did the horse then get from the floor onto the stage? There was a ramp. Oh, right.
Okay.
In my head, that was a big jump.
Yeah, it vaulted the last bit.
I can't believe that is a real story. The money thing.
At the end of the tour, because we had the same horse the whole time,
and the horse trainer, I guess, came around with us.
I know.
At the end of the tour, I was chatting to the horse trainer
and I found out that the horse was being
paid more than I was for the tour
on the last night of the tour.
And I was like, that's not good, is it?
I feel like I've been
slightly mugged off it.
That's a really painful conversation
to have with your agent, like, mate,
I'm really not happy about this. What, fucking horse is getting horses on more than i am
amazing it was bad so does that answer your question about money yeah it honestly does
beautifully done the horse the horse was actually very like it had a lot of credits the horse the
horse had been in loads of tv shows and like i was chatting to the horses the sun new comedian
of the year 2016 as well yeah yeah sorry i said the name been in like beep that one out he'd been
in loads of like uh films and tv shows and he was like quite a quite a famous horse he was sort of
like very uh is this what your agent told you afterwards like he said
well he's been on loads of tv that's why he's got them that's why the fees are what do you remember
any of the credits um they were all like films that have horses in i don't know black beauty
it was black beauty maybe black beauty i think you've just said a horse film from your head
i just want to think of a film with a horse film from your head I just want to think
of a film with a horse
in it
the Lloyd's TSB advert
yeah
he's got fucking
commercials
oh that's brilliant
yes it was
it was very
but then also
in the
before the
we did about a month
of theatres
before the arenas
obviously you can't
bring a horse
into a theatre
famously
so he would
as you know
as you've tried
he'd just ride Lloyd Griffith in...
Well, I wore a horse costume
and Jack rode me onto the stage
because he had a joke about coming on on horseback
so he wanted to test the joke out.
So for quite a few nights,
I had to put a horse costume on with the tour manager
and he would play the
head or the ass i think i was the back but i remember him saying have you ever supported
anyone before that's ridden you onto the stage tom it says here that in cardiff the horse pooed
on stage uh yeah i yeah that was a that was a thing that they would do every night and it would
it was supposed to look like it just happened that night,
but it happened every night.
Behind the curtain there.
See, everything's written, trust no one.
Fake shit.
Yeah.
Carl, have you got any questions for our esteemed guest?
I have, yeah.
Let's start with a little funny one.
I love it when he does a review of the bit before he does it.
No, it's a bit of a...
Is the question going to be...
It's basically, if this bit's not funny, then it's a bit of a... Is the question going to be... It's basically him going,
if this bit's not funny, then it's your fault
because I've got a good question.
No, I've got loads.
Are there any words you can't say on the Isle of Man?
That'd be a question.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Fuck.
Actually.
Would you rather be four foot five or seven foot seven?
Seven foot seven?
Seven foot seven.
Yeah.
Seven foot seven is not as easy
as you think though
is it
if you get a
a plane anywhere
it's gonna be a
fucking nightmare
being a
being a midget
doesn't look fun
all the time
apart from when
you've got loads of
leg room on a
fucking Ryanair flight
it's fun for everyone
else if you're a midget
isn't it
yeah 6 um crazy room on a fucking Ryanair flight. It's fun for everyone else if you're the midget innit.
Yeah.
Six.
Crazy eyes.
Keep going.
Keep it going.
You know what I mean?
I reckon you're more
likely to get invited
to parties if you're
four foot five than
you are if you're
seven foot seven.
Is four foot five
midget?
What's four foot
five?
Am I going to
Google the legality
of midgets? I don't think midgets. I's four foot five? Am I going to Google the legality of midgets?
I don't think midgets...
Under five foot, you're a little person.
I do know that six, seven, you're technically disabled.
Four foot ten.
Really?
I thought that was giant.
No, they count that as a disability if you're six, seven.
Being too tall.
But if anything, you've got more ability.
You can reach the fucking highest of shelves.
That's not a disability, is it? I've got more ability you can reach the fucking highest of shelves that's not a disability is it i've got i've got beef with that yeah but then dwarves can also reach the lowest of shelves yeah um everyone can reach the lowest if you're too tall you fall over
uh four four four tens dwarves yeah so four for five you are definitely you're getting a bite
like you're a little person please little person yes oh yeah yeah
you're right
yes you are
what if you were 7'7
but dog shit at basketball
wouldn't that be
fucking awful
you're like
competitive
how tall was like
Michael Jordan
8'6 5'6 6'6
8'3
he wasn't particularly
tall though was he
what did you say 6'6
I think he was about
6'5
Shaquille O'Neal
was the big ol' money
yeah he was about
7'0 Shaquille O'Neal Shaq big old money. Yeah, he was about 7'0". Shaquille O'Neal.
Shaq!
I think the tallest guys in the NFL,
like the stupid tallest ones,
are like 7'5", 7'4".
They're like ridiculous.
They make large men look really silly.
But they all die when they're like 43
because the heart goes,
mate, I've done loads of work
getting blood to that fucking heart.
It's like big dogs always die early.
The midgets live long then.
The small dogs.
Midgets live forever.
Do they?
Like turtles?
Yeah, because they're magic.
Yeah.
Because the blood doesn't have to go around.
No, that's it.
I'm sick of bumping into 143-year-old midgets.
Go and see your nana, you're like, oh, Jesus, they're fucking everywhere.
Trip it over.
go and see your nana you're like
oh Jesus
they're fucking everywhere
tripping over
this has been a real
you can't
you can't
you couldn't
move for midgets
in my mind
you're going to town
in midget hour
did somebody send
that question in
or is that
you just came up with that
yeah I got sent in
yeah
we got
we get a lot of them.
The amount of things in my inbox.
It's so mental, my inbox.
Are we all going tall then, yeah?
I think tall, yeah.
There's nothing bad about being tall, no.
What about if you were caught in a lady, or the person you're...
Wow!
Try and do that again.
That was fucking amazing.
What about...
I don't know where you are status-wise,
but if you were, you know, DTF
and you'd found someone you want to bang, Tom,
a lady!
Or someone who identifies as a lady.
And, oh my God, did you see the email
where we basically...
I have ADHD.
No, no, no.
A trans lady emailed in.
A trans woman emailed in and went,
listen, I don't know if you've fucked a trans woman,
but Adam's single and I quite like him
and down your fit as fuck
and I think you look good.
Now you've put the weight on.
And I was like, thank you.
I am so starved of flirty emails
that I'll take it off a trans woman.
I'll have a look.
Have a look.
That sounds exciting.
That was a defensive batting away of that one, wasn't it?
I'll have a look.
I'm not committing to yes, I'm not committing to no.
I want to have a little browse of the old...
See if she can spell.
Did she send a photo in as well?
No, no.
I need to leave an air of mystery around these things.
Thanks, mate.
You're going to have too much mystery.
What were we talking about?
Six.
Girl, you're on Tinder. What's your height restriction no people do mileage what's your height restrictions see this is a
difficult one in it because i think i've told you adam five uh nine but i say five eleven okay
five nine two four that's his dick what five nine I reckon five nine so like I
I could put up with a girl
being a bit taller than me
when she's got heels on
so you
you
five sevens you
because what is it
an inch or two heels innit
yeah it can be a bit
more than that
so yeah
what if she was dead fit
and six four
I just
I
look I know this is
toxic
but I'd just feel emasculated if she was fucking...
Like a centre-half?
Yeah.
I couldn't be stood next to fucking John Terry.
Do you know what I mean?
Yeah.
I'd just feel insecure, and I know that's my issue,
but if they're...
I think you've made...
As soon as you say stood next to John Terry,
the thing isn't about her height.
You're like, yeah, I don't want to fuck John Terry either.
Surely, if you're 5'9", there can't fuck john terry either surely five five if you're five
nine you then there can't be that many girls who are taller than you five nine oh yeah yeah but
with heels so they get like that extra three inches what's the average height of a lady five
four five three five four yeah yeah i think average height of a man is about five nine five
ten yeah i can do i can deal with it with heels on but five three is the average of a man is about 5'9", 5'10". Yeah. I can deal with it with heels on.
5'3 is the average of a lady in the UK.
Here we go.
5'9".
Not a man.
Cut the tails off.
You're so average.
Well done.
6'5".
I think I'd go small
for the lady.
I think that's,
you know.
You'd want to be small.
I think that women
value height quite a lot.
Yeah, exactly.
To a 4'5",
I'm fucking tall.
Statuesque.
No.
No, what are you saying?
You'd rather be...
You'd rather be not...
What would you rather your missus be?
I swapped it round, remember?
Oh, right.
Oh, like what you'd get from a girl.
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah, I'd want a seven foot seven girlfriend.
No.
No.
Can't be dating a fucking oak tree.
What the fuck are you on about?
Or a John Terry.
John Terry. Yeah. Good question dating a fucking oak tree. What the fuck are you on? Or John Terry. John Terry.
Yeah.
Good question, though.
Thank you.
Question, go on, another one.
I have, yeah, and this includes a bit of an interactiveness.
So, all right, lads, this is from Scott.
He's got a whiteboard.
He's got a fucking whiteboard.
To the whiteboard!
Scott Harcup.
Okay.
All right, lads, loving the podcast.
It's certainly getting me through life as well. Listening
whilst the missus screams her head off, giving
birth. Oh my god. That's a long
labour, isn't it? It sounds a bit dark.
Anyway, I have a debate
about that shit. I have a debate which can't be solved.
Let's
avoid that one. So,
you must pick two of these
to defend you while the rest
try to kill you.
Okay?
So, I'm going to read it out.
I'm going to put this up.
You don't have to keep asking me, okay?
Okay.
Crocodiles.
Oh, 50.
50 hawks.
50.
10 crocodiles.
3 brown bears.
15 wolves.
1 hunter, which I'm guessing is a man.
7 Cape buffalo.
10,000 rats.
Big fellas.
5 gorillas and 4 lions.
Big fellas and callback. So, five gorillas and four lions.
Big fellas and callback.
It's a hell of a shopping list, I'll tell you
that now. You must pick two of them to
defend you while the rest are trying
to kill you. That's a good question.
I want
five gorillas
and 50 hawks, please.
Yeah? Because the gorillas
are going to be hard as fuck.
Oh, now I want the buffalo.
I think the rats are the show, you know.
No, they're not.
Because you could just fucking bang them.
10,000 of them.
10,000 is a lot, isn't it?
Yeah, but you've got fucking rats.
10,000 rats.
And all you need is a knife.
Seven buffalo.
Buffalo would crush the rats.
Because they'll be fucking stomping on them.
Mate, that was beautiful.
I didn't even hear that.
He did an Alanis Morissette 10,000 rats joke
10,000 rats
when all you need
is a big fella
you don't want to say
10,000 rats
but 10,000 rats
is a lot
of rats
7 buffaloes
I definitely want
and I think I want
the girls as well
so there's my answer
buffaloes
10 hawks
10 crocodiles 3 brown bears would kill the rats by standing on them and the gorillas like
seven buffaloes killing ten thousand hang on what could a rat do to a buffalo chew the legs off
wow so how many rats per buffalo it's about 1300 yeah's about 1,300 rats are trying to twat seven buffalo.
I'd go rats and hawks.
She's got the ground and the air.
What the fuck?
I'd go rats and hawks.
But how are you stopping a fucking brown bear getting at you?
What?
The rats?
And the hawks would do its eyes in.
It's blind and it's just fucking picking its back.
That's fucked, isn't it?
Yeah.
I don't know, you know.
I'm going 15 wolves
5 gorillas
can I just say
no matter what you pick
I think you're fucked
it's not
either way
it's not a good place to be
is it
yeah
what's going on here
what a day
which one
we've completely ignored
the hunter
yeah he's fucked though
isn't he
any of them kill him
yeah
yeah because he's got
one shot
who the fuck sent in this
is this man having
a nervous breakdown
no he's having a baby who the fuck sent in this is this man having a nervous breakdown no he's having a baby
who's got time
to write questions
like this
it's a long labour
you want to see
what we do
on the drunk episode
I invented a quiz show
called who wants to be
a maida ray
with dicks
and it was about
the maida capitals
of the world
and the
biggest dick size
in the world
and I amalgamated them
and made a quiz
it took me hours and it was fucking nonsense is that an idea you're pitching around the channels or yeah i
think it's going to end up very late nights on channel five tom what are you going for uh hawks
and bears hawks and bears bears are the biggest aren't they so yeah i i think you need an animal that's
going to be able to one of the gorillas can sort of hug over me like a so the other four gorillas
are fighting one so the hawks what they can't get to me so like babe like the the mama gorilla is
going to look after me like in tarzan and. And maybe the gorillas... Mama like that.
Mama gorilla like that.
Maybe the gorillas will get around you and put you in a little cocoon.
And raise me.
Yeah.
I think with 15...
I think 15 wolves is being underestimated here.
We're forgetting the lions as well.
Mate, I'd rather have 15 wolves than four lions.
Fact!
You could ride a buffalo away from the gaff, though. You could just get on and be like, come on, Jeff, off'd rather have 15 wolves than four lions. Fact!
You could ride a buffalo away from the gaff, though.
You could just get on and be like,
come on, Jeff, off we go.
God, there's been too much animal riding on this, hasn't there?
You were pony.
How are you going to ride a buffalo?
Fucking watch me, lad.
Get me one and I'll show you.
It's a fucking scouse buffalo. Can we get a buffalo for next week?
It's just like a really aggressive horse, isn't it?
Yeah!
Just a dead aggressive horse.
That feels like how your gypsy character would sell a buffalo. Come on now Yeah. Just a dead aggressive horse. That feels like
how your gypsy character
would sell a buffalo.
Come on now,
you don't need a horse.
I got a lovely buffalo
from Moira.
Moira the buffalo.
Moira the buffalo.
Yeah,
I've,
I've,
gorillas.
Is there a right answer to this?
I think they're all wrong.
Yeah.
You're fucked.
Yeah.
You're dead.
You're actually wrong. The right answer to this? I think they're all wrong. You're fucked. Yeah, you're dead. You're actually wrong.
The right answer is 50 hawks.
No one was asked about crocodiles, eh?
No.
Because they're water, aren't they?
They're not in the fucking habitat.
And they're slow, aren't they?
Like, they pretend.
They'll be, like, pretending they're all cash.
Yeah.
You fucking bang them before they've even realised.
I'd bang a crocodile.
I'd smash a crocodile, then, you know.
Do you reckon?
One-on-one.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Like, one-on-one with a crocodile. We've just got to close the. Yeah. Yeah. Like one on one with a crocodile.
We've just got to close the mouth, haven't we?
Once the mouth is closed,
they've got no strength opening the mouth.
Or you're going to choke him out.
What's the biggest animal you reckon you could bang?
The biggest animal?
Like crocodiles are big animals.
What's like the fucking toughest animal you reckon you could fucking...
What the fuck?
Just an angry horse isn't it
Pigeon
I'll take a pigeon on
Yeah
Do you reckon
Smash a pigeon
Fucking hell
Hard London streets
I'd have a pigeon
I think they've toughened you up too much
I'd have a pigeon if it was tied down
I reckon I could bat at a giraffe
Yeah
He's gone
He's gone
But
I haven't
Oh I thought you had
I haven't
I thought you
I'm genuinely I really want to answer this question.
All right.
I'd swat a panda.
Yeah.
Like Placid, aren't they?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'd fuck up a koala.
Would you?
Oh, I'd bang him right out of a tree.
Shark.
Apparently, if you hit a shark on the nose, it fucks off.
So if you get a quick one in, and they try and go away, and then you fuck a couple of rib shots. But where do you go then? There's no way you're going to hit a shark on the nose It fucks off So if you get a quick one in And they try and go away
And then you fuck a couple of rib shots
But where do you go then?
There's no way you're going to take a shark
Where do you go then?
What do you mean?
Well you've punched the shark
I had my dolphin back to shore
Oh sorry
What about a stingray?
It took Steve Irwin down didn't it?
Yeah
But he was too confident with animals
He was like
Oh it's a fucking stingray
Give us a hug
Fuck off
It didn't attack
He was fucking molesting it
Steve had his hand
on the stingray's knee
oh look
I can fucking stroke it
yeah
do you reckon he was
tickling
he
listen
when he died
everyone was like
oh my god
it's so
but he like
stop fucking with animals
they'll not kill you
do you reckon he shagged
any of them
I don't think he was
fucking them
I'm just saying
is this an exclusive
he's barefoot shagged something do you reckon yeah haveagged any of them? I don't think he was fucking them. I'm just saying, is this an exclusive? He's barefoot shagged something him. Do you reckon? Yeah.
Have you seen that Netflix thing, My Octopus Teacher? I saw it in the list and went, I
can't be arsed. It's about a man who has a relationship with an octopus. Would you bang
out an octopus? Yeah. That's a that's a stupid question just out of the way
of the ink don't you
miss me
yeah
right I've got
another question here
are you sure
because this feels
like it's fully
off the rails
this isn't going to
get it back on the
rails by the way
yeah good
lean into it
I love it when it
goes weird
Gary Harris
sup lads
Gary Harris
Gary Harris
play for Stockport County
in the 1990s
Gary Harris
keep up the good work
bit of a mad one
but I really like
this girl at work
and I'm not quite sure
how to approach
the subject
she always seems
interested in me
and we always have a laugh
especially on work nights
out and stuff
but I'm pretty sure
she's got a boyfriend
should I send her
the picture of my penis
no please help no you should like right course but I'm pretty sure she's got a boyfriend. Should I send her the picture of my penis?
No.
Please help.
No, you should not.
Like, right.
Course.
Shoot your shot.
Yeah.
Shoot your dick.
Did you say they work together?
Yeah.
And she seems interested but she thinks she might have a boyfriend.
I will always say...
I think the dick pic comes a bit further down the line.
How many messages before the dick comes out, Tom?
I say at least one.
You're a second message dick pic?
No, I'm not.
I'm saying you've got to at least be like,
what's happening?
Then.
You can't just open,
you can't write what's happening on your dick.
I thought all you young lads were just opening up with the dick.
No.
You can't write what's happening on your dick.
A lot of guys do, I think.
They just go straight in with a dick pic.
Get on this
yeah
you laughing at it
or not
if not move on
I don't
no woman
like lads need to
stop sending
unsolicited dick pics
because no girl
in the world
sees it
and is like
like if you're
getting a bit flirty
I just want to see
a dick
and sad
maybe she's in the mood
but no one's getting
an unexpected dick pic
in the inbox
and being like
that's the dick for me
made my morning
yeah
unless it's an
absolute pipe
oh
there's a caveat
the thing is
a pipe can be
I'm not speaking
on behalf of ladies
but a pipe
are we talking like
stupidly big
yeah but
I'm not saying she'd want it
but she might be like
fucking size of that
bollard cock you just look it's creepy in it it's grim so what should they do then Are we talking like stupidly big? Yeah, but I'm not saying she'd want it, but she might be like, fucking size of that?
Bollard cock.
You just, you, look, it's creepy, innit?
It's grim. So what should he do then, in reality?
What's the age?
How old is he?
He should ask her out.
Imagine if they're 54.
She's 53, I'm 54.
They also work together.
Hoping with a dick pic.
You think she's got a fella?
What is this?
Ask first and then send the dick pic.
Like, it's so easy to find out if a girl's got a fella.
Take a risk.
Yeah, take a risk and ask her out.
Don't take a risk
and send her your fucking pubic region.
Yeah, but how does he ask her out?
He works with her.
It's not something you do in work.
Write it on his dick.
Yeah, he should do that.
Get a fucking sharpie.
What if he's not a wreck
and it just says, what?
You got a boyfriend?
Question mark on the fucking vein.
Maybe the fact that she's not mentioned
she's got a boyfriend
probably suggests she probably doesn't have a boyfriend.
There you go, Tom.
He's fucking Poirot over there.
Just ask.
Just, like, all it takes to find out is,
what have you been up to?
Have you been in ours?
What, your boyfriend?
I haven't got a boyfriend.
It's that easy.
It's really that easy to find out if someone's got a fella.
And then you go, so just to clarify,
you are single, you don't have a boyfriend.
And then the DP.
Can you just sign this?
Yeah. Have you got a boyfriend? His issue isn't a boyfriend, it's't have a boyfriend. And then the DP. Can you just sign this?
Have you got a boyfriend?
His issue isn't a boyfriend, it's how to approach the subject of asking it out.
You just ask.
Just shoot your shot.
And if you get shot down, take it on the chin.
And just be like, I shot me.
Like we were talking about on the lockdown lock-in.
The lad we used to work with who we won't name on a public episode.
If you want to find out, go and check out the lockdown lock-in on patreon.com.
Slash have a word pod. The lad we used to work with, he If you want to find out, go and check out the Lockdown Lock-In on patreon.com slash have a word pod.
The lad we used to work with,
he would go up to a girl,
be like,
what's happening, girl?
Can I get you a bevy?
And if she said no,
he went,
can't blame you for shooting me short.
Just do it in work.
Hey, what are you doing on Saturday?
Just wondering if you want to come round.
So how's that making a fucking... I don't know if it's that confident.
Should you do it by text?
Should you do it in person?
In person?
I would have thought that
the fact they work together
makes it a bit easier
because you can just make it seem like a work drink, can't you?
Oh, yeah.
See how it goes.
It doesn't have to sound like...
Linda, have you got any spare envelopes and some pussy?
Let's see what happens.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Just get to it.
Full on year six school tactics.
And if she says no, just pretend you were only messing.
Yeah.
Or ask your mate to ask for you.
Yeah.
Ask HR to ask her for you that's what hr are for mate will you get hr to ask will you go with my mate
do you want to go out with me no ah i was only messing you dick i thought i'd go out with you

got 10 minutes okay it's not a have a word though okay okay no have a word today guys send them in we're just we are running low on them dan owen have a word pod
at gmail.com i know i like lids very professional today i like it just a quick question from the
pod sometime a bit of a conspiracy theory question if you could know the details to any major event
what would you choose the kennedy assassination so he said, e.g. the JFK, Princess Diana, moon landing,
for some examples, what would you want to know and why?
What about you, Tom?
I'll come to you first.
Not really into the conspiracies.
I love them, me.
The Kennedy assassination.
I really want to know what happened.
I would say, only because I've just been watching a thing about it,
but I'm quite into the Princess Diana conspiracies.
Yeah, she was definitely off, though.
That's quite interesting.
Yeah.
And Area 51.
Area 51 or JFK.
It's one of them two.
Area 51's not related to Diana, I don't think.
Or so they have you believe.
That's what they called the area in Paris, were they?
Area 51.
I'm going 9-11, me.
Yeah.
I just want to know if it was a fucking inside job or not.
Maddie McCann.
Maddie...
Oh, that's a good shout, yeah.
I think it's quite obvious what's happened with Maddie McCann, I think.
What do you think happened?
I think she was killed within the week, as soon as the news...
Yeah, but what...
Like, was she kidnapped?
Were there parents in on her?
No, I think she was kidnapped because of, like, negligence,
and then she was killed when the news blew up.
She was hopped off, wasn't she?
You seem to know a lot about that. Yeah, I'd like to know what... Like negligence, and then she was killed when the news blew up. She was hopped up, wasn't she?
You seem to know a lot about that.
I'd like to know what Adam's grandad did for an actual job.
He was a plasterer!
He actually was a plasterer!
So just so you know, because you might not be honest,
my grandad single-handedly plastered the entire Liverpool Cathedral.
What?
Right? And these don't believe me. Single-handedly plastered the entire Metropolitan Cathedral. What? Right? And these don't believe me.
Single-handedly plastered the
entire Metropolitan
Cathedral.
Who's the guy who
painted the ceiling
in the Rome?
Yeah, what's his
name?
Sistine Chuckles.
Michelangelo.
He's like the
Michelangelo of
Liverpool.
Yeah?
Johnny Angelo?
Wouldn't you be
if we could find
all the conspiracies
and then just be
the bullshit bell
was what
is Steve Angelo
the DJ
related like long term
to Michelangelo
no
no
silly
silly person
how can we
this is
it's remarkable
this pod
does so fucking
well
he's just been like
yeah I think
Madeleine McCann
was probably killed
you know after
negligence
and then
within two minutes
was there Steve Angelo?
Directly related to Michael Angelo
on the same mental schizophrenic podcast.
Is Angelo Michael's surname, or is it one big word?
And was he a Ninja Turtle?
Michael Angelo is one name.
Is it?
Not Michael.
What's his surname, then?
I don't know.
Because it's not fucking Smith, is it?
Michael Angelo Smith just hasn't got the right name.
Are there any conspiracy theories you actually believe in?
I don't think 9-11 was...
Like, I think they knew about 9-11.
I think there's aliens in 8051.
You're a Holocaust denier as well, aren't you?
No.
No, I'm not saying it didn't happen.
Fucking hell.
I'm just saying
There's a few unanswered questions
And a few loose ends
Dan I want to know yours
Because you're quite a
A non-believer aren't you
And I don't think
I think the government
Were involved in JFK as well
Yeah that's
I think the government
Were involved in
Madeleine McCann
Yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
What did they take her for
Yeah
She was
Fucking toys
She was a spy
A spy God Madeleine. She was a spy. A spy?
Madeline McCam was a spy.
Spy Kids 3 is going to be a belter, isn't it?
Oh, JK.

My mum reckons Michael Jackson's alive.
She completely believes he's alive.
Right.
And what, just on a hunch?
She's got a...
Tom!
Tom!
Dinner's ready and I've just got a feeling
about Michael Jackson
purely based on a hunch
yeah
Tupac's released
too many songs
after his death
yeah
Tupac's released
too many songs
after his death
and they're all good as well
do you know what I mean
that's the problem
I've got with the Tupac thing
is every song
he released posthumously
yeah
was a banger
so like I'd understand if there was some shit ones what bangers has he released posthumously yeah was a banger so like i'd understand if there was
some shit what bangers has he released mate so gospel tupac's nan has released every fucking
video every tape that she found in the fucking attic if she had a recording of tupac doing a
shit it would be a hit song with elton John singing over the line are you telling me
that he wrote
get on gospel
and just went
that's not good enough
for any album
bollocks
he was in Cuba
the recording is
fucking perfect
it's not even a dodgy recording
Elton John
Tupac's nan's
a fucking big fella Tup is in cuba so do you
reckon you know elton john you reckon you think elton john knows where two pack is no i don't i
don't reckon elton john's in on it what about that because he seems like you could see keep a secret
don't he elton like tell elton all your secrets darling i don't reckon he's in on it i reckon
there's only like four or five people who know like it's a need to know basis
what's that
what's that really
there's a really weird
conspiracy theory
the one about
that Paul McCartney died
yeah yeah yeah
Paul McCartney died
and was replaced by a lookalike
he was
he had no shoes on
and the album cover and stuff
yeah yeah
and they leave hints
so that like you get onto it
what do you think of that
do you believe that
Paul McCartney was replaced
by a lookalike
do you know what the
got a different nose and everything do you know what the a local. Do you know what the... Got a different nose
and everything.
Do you know what the gay bomb is?
Do you know what the gay bomb is?
This is a real thing.
Get ready to press it
because you're going to want to
and it's not even fake.
Gay bomb.
Do you know what the gay bomb is?
So I think it was World War II.
The Nazis wanted to come up
with a weapon
that didn't just like
decimate people in areas.
They wanted to do something
that messed with
foreign military
so they came up with a plan i'm not sure they put it in action i don't i'm not sure they did either
but go on to make a bomb that would make all uh like enemy soldiers gay homosexual because then
they'd be too distracted wanting to fuck each other then fight the natties and what was in the bomb? Glitter and a Cher CD? The Nazis are like, come on
Gunter, put the poppers in the bomb and we'll explode it over the trenches. Why does he
sound gay? That's just your gypsy impression. How are we going to find more boys, Gunter?
impression how are we going to find more boys gunter i've got an idea glitter bomb surely that's not true yeah genuine uh a gay bomb and a halitosis bomb but what but
gen but what were they going to put in the get how was that going to work i wasn't part of the
bomb building in world war ii my God. Just as the bomb explodes.
I am there.
Oh, that has been
one of my favourite episodes
for ages, that.
What a treat.
I still feel bad.
This is how mental
this podcast is.
Of all the offensive things
we've said,
I still feel bad
that you got ridden
by Jack Whitehall on his horse.
That's not easy.
And then they replaced him with a real horse and paid the real horse more.
You can use that as the caption for the episode.
I got ridden by Jack Whitehall.
Have you got anything to plug?
Do you want to tell people where they can find you on social media?
