Now, I'm getting the word nuts.
Hey, I'm not doing it for Dan.
I'm not doing it for Carl.

Who the fuck is that guy?

Have a word. What's happening, guys?
It's sponsor time.
And this week's sponsor is coincornet.com,

If you don't know what Bitcoin is,
I don't know where the fuck you've been, mate.
It's the number one cryptocurrency on the planet.
It's been around for over a decade,
starting about 2008.
Over the last few years, it's gotten loads more attention,
which has seen a 300% growth in its value since June 2020.
There's loads of reasons that people are buying Bitcoin.
The main one at the minute is to store
value and a lot of people think it's just for the little internet nerds and stuff it's not
it's going mainstream it's in the news almost every day at the minute celebrities are tweeting
about it like tom brady the nfl quarterback southampton football club have started using it
to pay some of their player wages and el salvador have made it legal tender the rest of latin america
is set to follow.

Let's get back to the podcast.
Me and Carl are going roller skating tomorrow oh god he's got no sound hello you don't deserve sound you're going roller skating we're
going to a roller disco oh my god it's so nice we're taking our girlfriends to a roller oh god
you are taking girlfriends originally but i probably listen we listen 2021 very tolerant
people
very progressive
but I will
draw the line
to
platonic
heterosexual
friends
friends
right so
wouldn't it be possible
for us to be
non-platonic
heterosexual friends
would it
because if we're
non-platonic
that means we're
sucking each other's
dicks
so then we
therefore can't
be heterosexual
hey thanks for
filling in
don't you think you can be
what do you mean
like rugby players do it
yeah they do
yeah
famously
rugby players have a little bum
at half time
dead famous
gets them up for the second half
yeah you know the game
but like heterosexual
you can be heterosexual
and still do a gay thing
yeah
you've really buried the headline
which is the fucking roller skating never mind the semantics of rugby and bumming You can be heterosexual and still do a gay thing. Yeah. You've really buried the headline,
which is the fucking roller skating.
Never mind the semantics of rugby and bumming.
I want to know about the second gayest thing.
Have you ever been roller skating to a roller disco?
Back in the day, I knew.
It was after the war.
Everyone was just so happy.
You know, when the Japanese surrendered he knew his face
coming out
it was popular
in the 50s
it was popular
really popular
I was born in 1981
everyone
not 1881
no I've never been.
Been ice skating in the Donny Dome.
One day, guys.
One day we'll make it.
But I've never done, and I'm shit at ice skating,
so I imagine I'd be terrible at rollerblading.
No, it's not blading, it's skating.
Skating.
The four.
Four, not one.
The two by two.
What's shitter?
Is blading so unfashionable
blading's the cool one
blading's the real cool one
that's what they are
no but you don't go
rollerblading
no
yeah
you just have a
you know
you have your own
mental breakdown
and go
I don't need it anymore
public transport
I can't
yeah
erm
I don't think
rollerblading is
cool at all
whereas roller skating is sort of coming back round do you know do you know what I mean yeah coming back round we're gonna make it cool I don't think rollerblading is cool at all, whereas roller skating is sort of coming back round.
Do you know what I mean?
Yeah, coming back round.
We're going to make it cool.
I don't know.
Yeah.
You're going.
No, there's the electric excuses in Liverpool.
We're going to do electric roller skating tonight.
Right.
Everyone's just going to get them.
We're going to make it cool.
Watch everyone go now.
We were supposed to be going to a disco event.
Okay.
And that's not like granddad speak.
That's not me going, oh, you're going to a disco event okay and that's not like grandad speak that's not me going oh you go to a disco event
there was a 70s disco
event meant to happen
at the Parmouse
in Sefton Park
our tickets booked for months
we were all excited
I was going to get flares
I was going to get a wig
it was going to be amazing
nothing to do with our
Tony Carroll
no
oh god
just a big disco event
sold out in minutes
and for some reason
they've cancelled it
and it can't be because
didn't tell me why
no
it can't be because restrictions didn't me why no it can't be because
restrictions didn't lift
because it was meant to be
before that anyway
they just went
Skiddle just emailed
Carl and went
cancelled that
soz
so we've
we've
we've planned a day
of activities instead
we're going
roller skating
bowling
we're going bowling
we're going roller skating
then we're going to
the arcades
and then we're going to indoor ghetto golf.
Oh, yeah.
You motherfuckers are going to be engaged and buying houses so soon.
Because you just said, without either of you laughing,
we're here for our planned day of activities.
Like, when you're really young, you just, like, get fucked up.
And you're like, yeah, I'm going out with her.
She's letting me stick my willy in her. And we go out and get fucked up as well but you're already past
that you're at the stage where you're like oh i've already had a really annoying cancellation
oh and i've already pre-booked parking but uh luckily we've got a full day of activities and
i think carl found some vouchers in a local magazine absolutely amazing i love the progression it's fucking great i'm a
decade into my relationship though yeah remember no but i just i just like that you're at that
point because of lockdown so am i yeah adam's gone past me adam's been with his girlfriend sam
four and a half years within six months that's really nice isn't it uh fucking amazing can we have the full
report on that please i'm uh i'm excited uh last time i went any sort of skating was ice skating
and i fractured my elbow you are very injured i'll know when it comes to I didn't expect it
I didn't expect it
I just got a head thing
Oh god
I don't know
I did not expect that
The way you just did that
And I fractured my fucking elbow
It was really bad
I was in hospital for two weeks
So why would you
What's another two weeks
For a fractured elbow
I don't know
But it sounds bad doesn't it
Yeah
Did you just deck it Yeah I just Well So why would you... I was over two weeks for a fractured elbow. No, I don't know, but it sounds bad, doesn't it? Yeah.
Did you just deck it?
Yeah.
I just... Well, what happened was
I was quite scared
and I was holding the side of the rink
and going round.
Do you know like a pensioner
trying to go for a piss in the hospital
who's holding on to the rail?
Do you use them penguins?
What penguins?
Gina penguins, you can have them.
They're like healthy and long.
No, not one of them.
I was literally holding the side of the ice rink
as I was skating around.
How old were you?
Two years ago.
I was 17.
Oh, were you bollocks?
I was.
I was 17.
It's genuinely true.
I was 17.
So like an old man then, basically.
It was still old enough.
What a beautiful analogy
Is that Adam Rowe
Or is it a pensioner
Going for a piss
In the hospital
And then me dad went
Ad
Come on
You'll be fine
Just give it a go
So I went off
And immediately fell over
And fractured me over
Oh fucking hell
Yeah
It's a lot harder on skates though
You've got a lot more stability
Yeah it's a lot
A lot better on the 4x4
The 2x2
You haven't got one
I honestly
I don't think
I think roller skates
Are harder than
Ice skating aren't they
No no no
Oh
Alright okay
I always had it
That they were more like
Fuck off
No they are
It's just because the blade
Is like
Is very
Unstable
Do you know what I mean
Whereas this is 2x2
So you've got
there's no real okay so there's no left or right but there's a very fast yeah oh you're going fast
yeah i can't wait really excited i think the problem here is you've got the general build
of a robin red breast you've got beautiful fins stalky legs and then a manly sort of
i'm sunburned to fuck so I've actually got red tits.
I look like Barney the Dinosaur under me top of the minute,
and I'm not even messing.
It's really bad.
On Tuesday, Carl took us to the beach in West Kirby.
And because it said it was 20 degrees on my weather app,
and the sun was behind the clouds, so I was like,
I want to get a bit of a tan.
Sneaky motherfucker, isn't in it the sun like that
took my t-shirt off
for like
what four hours
with any sun cream
with no sun cream
what
for four hours
no sun cream
no Jesus
and just lay down
on a towel
flipping back and forward
like you're trying to
cook a sausage
just backward and forward
until both sides
were completely done
felt fine
sliver done
why are you making me
I don't think you've ever made me laugh this much
at the start of an episode.
Turn Adam over.
He's crisping.
Lovely.
Look at that.
Is he sizzling?
Oh, lovely.
But I felt fine until I got home
and then I was like,
oh, I've got a bit of sunburn there.
Then I got, you know,
like the heat stroke
or like the heat exhaustion.
Second time in a week.
Yeah.
You're doing well, aren't you?
But like bad.
So I was shivering and I felt sick.
Sam was like, I think we should ring 111.
And I was like, I'll be fine.
So she went, I'm going to go on the 111 website
and put all your symptoms in.
So she did.
And it said, ring an ambulance immediately.
I put all your symptoms in and it said,
your boyfriend's in our bed.
Well, this is why I'm not clapping for the NHS anymore.
Right?
I went on 111, put me fucking symptoms in. It said your boyfriend's in our bed well this is why i'm not clapping for the nhs anymore right i went on one one one put me fucking symptoms in it said bring an ambulance immediately
so we rang an ambulance and they went uh we're a bit busy at the minute our best advice is to go
on the website one one one and we went that's where we've been and they told us to ring you
and they went well we're sending you back and we were like what and then they're gonna send me back
to you right what the fuck's going on did you need an ambulance i i was supposed to go to sam just drive you what do you mean to hospital well they said you can
make your own way to hospital if you want but you are going to be waiting a long time so i said to
sam do you want an ambulance for sunburn i didn't want one i've got a girlfriend and you know what
girls are like they're like i've got a check whatever so she put all my symptoms there's an
application adam there's an application
it said go to hospital
yeah you can go to hospital
but it doesn't have to be
in an emergency
it said ring 999
and then they told me
to go to hospital myself
ring 999
stick a fork in him
he's done
so I just
I rode it out
I had some
panacea
you fucking hero
why can't more people do that
when they need to ring 999
and ask for an ambulance?
Hey, I've fallen over and broke my hip.
Pussies.
Just fucking stay at home.
Breathe through it.
So it's been really bad.
It's been really, really bad.
Struggling to sleep.
I'm very...
Oh, hang on.
He's putting a telly on.
Does that mean we've hit 4,000 patrons?
Yeah, buddy! Amazing. We knew that mean we've hit 4,000 patrons? Yeah, buddy!
Amazing.
We knew we were going to hit 4,000 at some point during the record.
4,000 at once, even if one of your fucking rats cancel.
Still fucking got it, so you can fuck off.
Absolutely amazing.
Please don't.
That ends, for me, a full week of an OCD weirdo
checking our patron every seven to eight minutes.
Like it's almost a relief to hit the milestone
because now I can be like,
ah, we've hit that.
And now I just go back to checking it 12 times a day.
I won't be happy, by the way,
until we've got more Patreons
than every other Patreon in the world combined.
All right.
Okay, good.
I won't be happy either.
I'll be very unhappy.
Sunburn has the same
side effects as cocaine
I put a bit of
after sun on last night
but it's
what I'm worried about
is falling over
at the roller skating
tomorrow
and then
I come over and slap you
yeah
Sam slapped me last night
because he thought
it'd be dead funny
that's where ice skating
would be good
because if you fell over
it'd cool it down
Oh yeah
Did you use the aloe vera stuff?
I didn't
He's the other one
It has helped
They would have just done that
At A&E anyway
Wouldn't you?
Bit of aloe vera
Quickly
Aloe vera
Stat
Yeah
But I didn't go
Well you just try and survive babe
Yeah
But it's fucking
You've seen it yesterday
It's ridiculous isn't it?
Oh he's purple yeah I'm actually purple It's been such a difficult Do you know what I purple yeah i'm actually it's such a different thing it's been such a difficult year purple tits
a terrible year and a half and people are still jesus christ you look like steve carell when he
gets waxed on the 40 year old virgin in that picture i sent you yeah you can slide that in
here so people know what up the dilemma finn will do that Okay We wish you a Merry Christmas
You know that scene
Dan is
Proper
When he got waxed
And the reason why
They didn't finish it
Is because he couldn't
Finish the scene
Yeah
And he's a hairy
Yeah yeah
He's a hairy hairy man
Isn't he
Yeah
I've been watching a lot
Of the American office
At the moment
Talking about the patrons
This morning I was
Checking it
And I had Jack Giving I was giving him a...
What Jack?
Actually, my baby, my son, yeah.
Not your brother.
Your brother wasn't round, first thing.
He doesn't help out with childcare.
He's a lazy old brother like that.
Your Jack was round to watch me look after my kids.
It's a weird setup.
And I was on the patron app, and I just had the numbers out.
I've been checking it all the time. Andta was like daddy what's that and i was like oh it's it did you see that it's a really
weird moment i don't know why i did it but i was like that means we're gonna be rich and she went
cool like literally took it in a stride so she got to nursery and they opened the door and she went
we're gonna be rich
it's a phenomenal country like the nursery nurses who were probably about eight and a half grand a
year must be like what the fuck are these idiots talking about over breakfast right after you go to nursery?
You fucking complete.
And this comes in the same week,
and I shit you not, this sounds like I'm making it up.
Got to nursery the other day.
I picked her up, and Jasmine,
is this a public episode?
Jasmine, who's lovely,
was like, oh, I was like,
has she been good today?
Has she been good?
Is Jasmine a con?
Jasmine's dead nice.
There's no real name either, so it doesn't matter.
Yeah, it's Flasmin.
No, she is dead nice.
She ends up giving the critique on how Etta's done that day because Etta is fun, can be a bit loud and a bit mental,
but generally you just, has she been psycho?
No? Okay, cool.
And Jasmine's like, she's been great
and she's been really making me laugh.
Today she went to the toilet
and when they're
in the toilet they sort of just do a check on them so they're not like i don't know it's just
there's three cubicles apparently and then three urinals so jasmine went to check knowing that
etta had said she's going to the toilet the three cubicles were empty so jasmine went where's etta
look to the right and my daughter was stood at a urinal stood up pissing
into it which is a fucking bold move jasmine went what you doing and etta went well the boys can we
here yes mate she just stood there like fuck off and um was she saying that yeah yeah she was like fuck off why are you in your vinyl fuck you i'm
gonna be rich yeah she's like i'll buy me own your vinyl you fucking twat that's mad that you know
it's gonna be gold and then jasmine went jasmine went and to be fair to her there was no splash
anywhere so good aim i was like right well that's the weirdest conversations anyone ever had at a
nursery girls have a little tiny piss Really don't they Right
Can we be careful though
Because it is my
40 year old we're talking about
Alright just like
Let's keep it vague
Yeah
I haven't pooed for three days
Good
Now in terms of
Keeping it vague
That just took it off on
Is that true
Yeah so
Because of me sunburn
Oh for fuck's sake
Hang on
Hang on
I've been taking codeine
Haven't I
Been taking codridomol You've been taking codridomol.
You've been taking codridomol?
I love the way I didn't give you it for that,
but you've used it for that.
What did you get codridomol for
when your shoulder went out?
Sam has had the coil put in,
you know, the contraceptive,
so that she doesn't have to take the pill
because the pill's making her mental.
Right.
So have you started taking her pills for her?
No, because the coil
is quite painful.
She got advised
to take some codeine.
So,
I borrowed some
off Carl,
but he gave me plenty
and then this was hurting.
So I was like,
there's some codeine there.
So I've been taking codeine
for my sunburn.
You've been taking codeine,
one of the stronger
painkillers.
I don't really feel like
it makes that much
of a difference.
No.
It says on the box,
don't drive. So Adam yesterday took two, a difference It says on the box Don't drive
So Adam yesterday took two
Two ibuprofen and then drove us to town
I've just took the exact same and then drove us away
I don't care

the Parapod podcast
if you're into anything paranormal or even
if you're not, so the Parapod is
a podcast done by Barry Dodds and Ian Boldsworth
former stage name
was Ray Peacock which he's now changed
go and start it from the very beginning because it's
phenomenal, it's my favourite
podcast apart from this one.
Genuinely, I love it.
It is hilarious.
It's so funny.
Me and Laura have watched the film.
We got a special preview thing and we watched it.
It's mental, the production value.
And Will, who's done our ghost hunt,
I'm so proud of that
because it's our first time doing something
out of the studio
apart from when we went for an illegal kickabout at the five-a-side pitch here at the business park which i i got like oh we're
not allowed and i was like oh fuck off get in and then we got bollocked it was an amazing moment
where i felt like such a school kid um but that was the first time out wasn't it and even going
like on a road trip and having a chiquitos, which is not a restaurant that anyone really wants to go to.
No, we only went there because Nando's was chocker.
I had such a good time and I got there and I was like,
I was worried that we weren't going to adapt
to being out of our little safe sort of,
this is what we do.
This feels so easy and so natural.
We've got the chemistry here.
And I was worried that Barry was going to get a little bit fucking ghost nonce-y and like...
Seriously?
Fred's in the loft?
It was just so fun from start to finish.
And I'm not going to ruin it for the people that have not seen it yet that are our patrons.
Or if you're going to sign up.
But watching one of us lose their mind so funny made my night so much more fun because
we were having a laugh and i yeah wasn't me wasn't you and it wasn't finn
there was one bit where i nearly went lad are you taking the piss and i saw genuine fear. I was like, oh, this is so fun. It was like, I got to
live it vicariously. The mirror was straight. Right, listen, look, this doesn't ruin anything.
There's a wonky mirror and when I went in my own, it was a fucking straight as an arrow.
Just go and watch it it it's the worst thing
I've ever been through
I don't want to go back
I'm never going to another one
so Barry initially was like
what we're going to do
is we're going to be downstairs
and then one of us
is going to go upstairs
for like five minutes
in a room at a time
and I went
nah
we should be out
of the house
and you should be
in the house
that was the touch
wasn't it
it was a good idea
it was really good I'm glad he did it because I there was a. That was the touch, wasn't it? It was a good idea, that. It was really good.
I'm glad he did it.
Because I,
there was a couple of moments early on
when you hear the story,
there was a couple of moments
where I went, right,
just, you're fine.
But I was getting a bit jittery.
And then I got a bit more jittery
in other places, thank you, Finn.
But when you walk in on your own,
as the evening went on,
I was becoming more and more skeptical.
We were all having a laugh, weren't we?
The house
When you're on your own
The house was a different monster
Yeah
When there was seven of us
Including us
Barley the camera crew
It was like
Yeah this is a bit weird
100%
When that door closed
And it's just you
It was like
Oh this is different
And you leaving fucking spooky dolls
To watch over me on pillows
Like
But yeah
Go and watch it
It's only on Patreon
It'll never go public
All the extra content we do We give to the Patreons Because they're the ones Who support us And make this shit happen It's like... But yeah, go and watch it. It's only on Patreon. It'll never go public.

Post-pandemic piss-up.
The post-pandemic piss-up...
It won't be, though.
It's going to be... What? No. it won't be though it's going to be

It's an amazing show.
I tell you what, there's not many times
you're going to see two of our favourite guests
and me and Adam.
I'm hosting because I'm from Preston.
And it's big enough in Preston,
they've done like a two-page thing
in the Lancashire Evening Post.
And it's moments like this where my granddad
sort of understands what I do.
Like I can say YouTube and internet
and it's like I'm going wizardry and nonsense.
He's like, I don't understand it.
But as soon as there's a...
Yeah, I've come a long line of nonsense.
Great, good times.
Good times.
But yeah, in the local paper, I had a...
That night he yells, bringing his friends to Preston
and there's going to be a microphone.
I'm doing the middle at night.
I'm looking forward to that.

I don't think you need to see the editing process.
That is my personal opinion.
I remember editing, you know.
I remember editing.
Just before you come back from Japan. Having to edit those full episodes. I remember editing you know I remember editing just before you come back from Japan
having to edit
those full episodes
I remember when
I remember when

this is my first edit
on my own
yeah
I was like
oh shit
yeah
god bless you guys
I love not doing any editing it's fucking great Yeah. God bless you guys.
I love not doing any editing.
It's fucking great.
My favourite thing to do is not doing editing.
Yeah.
It's what I love.
My favourite thing to do is nothing.
Fuck all.
Yeah.
Fuck all is better than nothing.
Doing nothing.
Fuck all can be something, though.
Yeah, I mean, like like watching Terry playing FIFA.
That's doing fuck all.
To me that's doing nothing.
Don't have kids.
I dream about
doing fuck all.
Playing FIFA with the kids?
Yeah.
The thing is
when I play FIFA anyway
I hold my pad like this.
Now if you hold your pad
like that
You can have the baby there.
Yeah, the baby fits in your arms.
Fucking Jesus. Why not? And it your pad like that. You can have the baby there. Yeah, the baby fits in your arms.
Fucking Jesus.
And it can press buttons that you haven't got the dexterity to reach.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Have a bit of spit up.
Then you've got a bit of milk puke in your fucking buttons.
Great.
That'd be good fun.
Just have a bucket just behind the baby.
And every time it's sick, you just go, tip it.
Tip it.
Sick into the bucket.
Put it back.
Right back.

You fucking puff.
Get the Evian out

There'll be people watching this who know what I'm on about. Evian is like like a milky taste to it. What the fuck are you talking about? There'll be people watching this
who know what I'm on about.
Evian is like milky water.
It's so weird what bugs me
when you say stuff.
Because you've,
we've said some weird shit about my family.
That's the most annoying thing you've said today.
What do you mean?
Evian's my choice in bottled water.
No, it's got like a milky,
it's got like too much calcium or something in it i prefer the nestle pure life
water yeah the one that i just bought randomly from being in bargain code sensei 15
i'm also sponsored by keys keys for locking doors
uk is our domain by the way yeah i know if you go to cop cop yogurt.co.uk is our domain by the way yeah I know if you go to cockyogurt.co.uk

don't you just want to have staff
yeah
handyman as well
Bill B. Walsh
oh blad
see you in an hour
let us know if you want a brew
how often do you need him
an indoor and an outdoor
how often do you need him
well in my head
I've got so much land
that I can just constantly
give him new jobs
land
you've got land yeah you're going to have to give them new jobs. Land? You've got land?
Yeah.
You're going to have to move out of Liverpool for this, aren't you?
Where are you getting this land?
Or I could just buy me streets and knock all your houses down.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You're not thinking clearly.
I'm not thinking like a rich person.
You're thinking like a rich person.
I'm thinking like a poor person.
Like, you'll get money and you'll need to go and buy acreage in the countryside.
You're thinking like a rich person. I'll buy this fucking street and knock all these houses down
not all but i'm the library for me dad i'm the school and the old people's home with their
minute two birds one street what would the gardener do said two birds garden but what are
you doing in there what you want in your garden just want them to keep on top of the plants and the grass and that.
I want it mowing every morning.
Mowing every morning?
Even in the winter when it's raining and you'll die.
Yeah.
Is it all going to be lawn or is some of it going to be knocked out foundations from fucking three bedroom semis?
Most of it will be lawn and then a little bit of decking for my barbecue.
Right.
How many houses are you knocking down for your decking
and shit loads of lawn?
How many is that? About 50, 60. Right. How many houses are you knocking down for your decking and shitloads of lawn? How many is that?
About 50, 60.
Right.
Now I'm starting to think,
if this is the plan,
you're going to need to hire some security
because once word gets round
that Rowie Bags has not only got rich,
but he's also got rich to the point
where he's aggressively buying out
all of his neighbours,
knocking their shit down.
How many bedrooms,
are you just keeping your house
in the middle of it
or are you making a bigger house?
I'll make a big house.
Right.
So I'll knock my house down as well.
I'll knock them all down.
I'll go and stay in my dad's for a few weeks
while they build me a new house.
Couple of weeks, that's how that works, isn't it?
Knock them all down,
couple of weeks, get us a new house.
Come on, Gary!
Fuck the lobster!
You've got to finish the kitchen!
Yeah.
Would you have a moat?
What?

a hen yeah chicken all right right
i didn't say a cock i said a chicken so you're so rich you've got staff security yeah uh a kennel

guy for
questions

pop a dog eyelids quick question at what age do you hang up He's the go-to guy for questions. Woo! Oh. Go-to. Papa dog.
Eyelids.
Quick question.
At what age do you hang up your dick and balls?
What age do you see yourself deciding sex and even wanking is well off the menu?
So looking forward, personally, when do you think you will retire, little Vinnie Rowe?
When are you packing it up?

I think it's just when you lose the urge to come.
Next question.
Straight to the point on that one.
Lose the urge to come.
I mean, or when, I suppose he's including the wanking, isn't he?
So it's not even when Laura, I mean, that's not far off when it's like. When do you lose, is it virility?
I don't know, is it?
I think it is virility.
It's not happening anywhere near 40, mate.
I'm not asking you.
No, I know, and I'm just from personal experience.
I'm a little bit further down this road.
I know this might be naive,
but I feel like if I live to 90,
I'm still going to be shagging.
Just give him six years.
Who are you shagging at 90?
Whoever wants it.
Wow, you're going to be a rapey pensioner
is that some threat
no whoever wants it
oh I'm sorry
I thought you said
whoever I want to
no whoever wants it
okay so I'm
I crucially misheard
and I'd like my comments
struck from the record
okay
you're not a rapey pensioner
no
I'm a shagging pensioner
you sound like you're in the UFC
Adam the shagging pensioner do you know what you're in the UFC. Adam the shagging pensioner.
Do you know what I mean?
Yeah,
maybe we'll be like
being in the UFC.
People can call me out.
Yeah,
who wants it?
I'm going to suck Adam Rose's dick.
At the old people's home.
Put it on pay-per-view.
Because all the young people
now are on YouTube,
so they'll just be
taking the teeth out.
4am as well.
I know,
I'll hit you in room 4 Monday.
Put it on pay-per-view,
we'll have an undercard.
The old def. Oh, right have an undercard the old def

with your dentures
in fact
it's not even funny
come on Garth
keep up
er
er
did I want to say like 70
yeah
yeah
I don't want it to be true,
but is it going to be a sad day when you're like,
Do you reckon you know when it's your last one?
Do you know what I mean?
Do you reckon you're having it like,
this is the last one?
No.
Or do you reckon it's just,
you'll just never feel the need to do it again?
Like what McLaughlin says,
like there was once a time when you played out
with your mates for the last ever time,
but you all didn't know.
Yeah.
Is there a last spaff? It's so sad and beautiful yeah is there a last spaff
fucking hell like the last supper i hope i just i i hope it's like i i'd rather die suddenly
and not have to deal with like the time i tried to crack one out and my dick was like
i'm too old dan can't do it you're gonna have to leave me by the side of the road
i'd rather go out with a bang the last time i like jizz i'd rather it be in a woman rather than
onto a tissue i thought you were gonna say and then i get hit by a bus and i'm like what are
you doing at that bus now out with the bangers and like banging. On a woman, no? What? On a woman.
No, it's better in, isn't it?
Always better to leave it in.
Feels well better.
Yeah.
Subtle.
Vagina.
It does, though.
Yeah, it does.
Or a bummo.
What?
Oh, the vagina feels well better than a bummo.
What are you on about?
Not even,
not as good.
What do you mean?
Well, the vagina's way more,
I don't know.
Roomie?
All right, well,
I'm learning about your missus.
It's designed for it.
It's very serious, isn't it?
Like what you're doing with the place.
Get a bit of decking.
Horse.
Swimming pool.
Adam on a lilo
fuck it up
your missus is fat
he's massive
no
disclaimer
it isn't
ah you fucking pussyhole
that you couldn't get
to the end of that
we literally just said
Adam would be
in your wife's
and a horse
would be in there
and Carl was like
pause
pause
disclaimer
it's not
it's dead tight
you couldn't even
get a pony in
I need a meeting after this production meeting Pause, pause. Disclaimer, it's not. It's dead tight. You couldn't even get a pony in.
Lads, I need a meeting after this.
Production meeting.
Stop talking about her fanny like that.
You couldn't get Deccan in my Mrs. Fanny?
Fucking hell, lads.
Fucking hell.
Do you reckon you can get a patio?
Porch.
No, no, no.
Tim's like, not letting this one go.
Adam's planning out her family like he's planning out his billionaire household.
I know what you're saying, by the way.
The vaginities are more sort of,
to quote Jim Jefferies,
purpose-built vessel.
Yeah, it's better.
Or the feeling,
because it's naughty,
to come in a bumhole.
Now, there's more going on. There's more's more going if we're talking about pure comfort there is only one option
surely but if it's all psychological you're like oh what are we doing yeah yeah sorry adam just
said coming in a bumhole is comfy and you didn't they're not comfy so it's more exciting it's like
going camping it's not better than sleeping in your bed.
It's just a bit different.
You know what I mean?
It's just like going camping.
Camping and bumming.
That's what I said to the last woman that I had anal sex with.
I was like, oh, babe, this is just like camping.
Your arsehole's like a Eurohike 5000.
Yeah.
I'm not a big...
Oh, let's go comfy.
When you're young, it's the biggest...
It's like, so have you got your brown wings?
It's the biggest thing, isn't it?
The brown wings?
Is that what you called it?
Honestly, back in the days, that was a big thing.
It's so childish.
And then the reality is...
Have you bummed anyone yet?
That's what we used to say.
Right.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Again, not good on the innuendo when you were young.
I know what you're going to say.
Go on.
I remember...
What?
I do remember, I remember What? I do remember yeah
What?
You remember when we used to say that?
You bummed anyone yet?
Do you remember when we did say that?
Do you remember when we used to say that?
Which other?
In school
And maths
I used to ask the bus driver
Every time I got on
Do you remember the lady we used to work with
when we found out
oh yeah yeah
there was a girl who
we used to work with
in Zelligs
Zelligs mate
it's been a while
Zelligs t-shirt's coming very soon
I am
I cannot wear
I want to be the only one
that wears the Zellig
I think me and Finn
should be the only one
wearing the Zelligs merch it's less funny if someone that actually wears the Zellig. I think me and Finn should be the only one wearing the Zellig's merch.
It's less funny if someone that actually works at Zellig's is wearing it.
There's a girl who worked with us called something.
Yeah, Lisa.
No, it wasn't Lisa, but someone worked there called Lisa.
It wasn't her either.
Jeremiah.
Jeremiah.
And she was quite open about the fact she loved getting bummed.
So we nicknamed her
bummed
that's what we used to call her
you were fucking lying
so we'd be like
hey bummed
we stocked our fridge
hey bummed
past the lines
and we'd just shout
hey bummed
did she use
the turn of phrase
I like getting bummed me
did she say it like that
she didn't shout
so the me
probably wasn't there
but it was probably
I love getting
bummed
I don't know where she was from
really
I think she was Jamaican I love getting bombed. I don't know where she was from. Really?
I think she was Jamaican.
I love getting bombed, man.
Get on the ground and bomb me in the face.
Get on the ground and bomb me in the face.
Stick it on the T-shirt.
Get on the ground, bomb me in the face.
Get on the ground, bomb me in the face.
70.
We've decided 70. Dan. We've decided 70.
Dan, we've decided 70. Unless you
work with a Jamaican pervert
and then as long as you're going to get
on the ground and bum it in the face.
Oh, yeah. oh yeah so fucking stupid
hey lids you have to get a tattoo of each other but it can't be a portrait
just something that represents that person for example if you had a tattoo of
finn you might have the welsh dragon eating a turkish kebab what are you getting that represents
each other if we could go round to the right if we could go round to the right so adam well if i
was going to get finn i'd just start with that and say i'd get the Turkish Prime Minister in Real Sun Centre. Just to flip it.
And the Turkish Prime Minister is?
President Erdogan.
Erdogan.
Yeah.
He's a twat.
Is it Erdogan?
Yeah.
You listening?
Don't age restrict us though,
please Turkey.
Please don't age restrict us.
Yeah.
Because there are certain world powers who I fucking can't stand,
but I have enough influence
because they're evil cunts
to mess with our
labelling on YouTube but I can't see
that Turkey's one of them
President Erdogan, he's a
right cunt. So you're getting President
Erdogan. No I've got to go to the right, I've got to do
you haven't I? I've got to do
something that represents Cologne. Oh right
Can I have a think about it?
Come back to me
It's in these moments
That I start to think
Maybe I should send out
A little message
With a bit of prep
Going guys have a think
About this for tomorrow
Lads what were you to do?
Just come back to me on that
Carl what about you?
I just have a chilli sauce bottle.
Chilli garlic bottle.
Yeah.
On me hip.
Finn, you've got to get one that represents Dan.
Can I get a picture of Laura wearing a Laura's Gone T-shirt?
So, you're fucking my wife in her dreams.
And you want her to...
You want a tattoo of my wife while she's banging you in her dreams.
Yes.
Jesus Christ.
I'd...
For my...
So I have to get a tattoo of you.
I'll just get two little Adams.
I'll just get two little Adams.
It can't be me, can it?
Oh, shit.
It's not a portrait.
Oh, I'll get two big dicks. I'll get two little adders. It can't be me, can it? Oh, shit. It's not a portrait. Oh, I get two big dicks.
I get two big dicks.
I'd get...
Two little dicks.
That look.
Two big dicks.
I'd get...
I'd get a picture of...
My left foot, because it's fucking great.
I'd get a picture of Takumi Minamino,
Liverpool's Japanese footballer,
in a Spain top.
Like it?
Mixing together my two home countries.
Could you say that player's name again in your accent?
Takumi Minamino.
Wow.
That's just a lot of fun. There some things you say and i get them in
the earphones and it makes me go but you saying takuni minamino is genuinely lovely okay cool
takumi minamino thanks for that or as john barnes once called them in a pre-match build-up. Takumi Minimoto. Minimoto?
Yeah.
Doesn't feel acceptable.
Did you have them in Preston, Minimotos?
Little tiny motorbikes.
Minimotos?
Yeah, they were literally about this big.
Mini superbikes, but like grown men would sit on them.
Oh, were they like 125cc?
Yeah. And they looked.
And they looked.
They had like the Rep all like sponsorship and everything
yeah there's one here right that was quick laughing oh my god on the fucking ball one of them
let's have a look oh no no no no no okay they're not one two five oh you mean they're actually like
it's a motorbike just tiny it's like a clown motorbike essentially like if a clown Like if a clown... What, Scallies used to drive them around?
Yeah, if you were a Scally clown...
Yeah, there's a police officer
but there's not.
A police officer.
Please put that picture in.
We have seized...
That's actually a mum Christmas day.
Thanks, mum.
We have seized
one green Minimoto.
Love me, mum.
Off to work.
Imagine if he chased people or not.
We are actually still pursuing one little person
who dismounted the Minimoto and headed into the woods.
Little person.
That's growth, isn't it?
Thank you.
Didn't say midget or dwarf.
Oh, growth.
Growth.
Wrong word there, kid.
Minimoto.
What's ironic is you showed growth and then I stunted it.
Stunted.
Like on a bike.
Stunts.
So full circle today. Stunted Like on a bike Stunts Now then lads
With the Euros
Getting going this week
I just wanted to ask
Which has been
The most enjoyable tournament
As an England fan
Euros or World Cup
I know some of you
Are older than the others
Dan thank you
So it will be interesting
To hear
Greatest one for me
Was Italian 90
Amazing to experience
as a footy-loving kid, as the whole
country just came together for one
month. I remember my house being in tears at the
semi-final loss and my dad taking on
a Basil Fawlty-style German rant
after the pens. Also,
watch your favourite England tournament
song. Badillo, Luskiner,
Anton Deck, Lily Allen's dad. World in
motion for me.
Keep up the outstanding work, fellas.
I have forgotten who, I didn't write down who.
I think that might be IndyClo.
Jordan, Italia90.
Jonathan.
I was... An older listener because...
Jonathan.
Jordan, Italia90.
I was still jizzing my dad's bollocks at best.
So are you saying that that wasn't your favourite tournament?
I'm saying i barely remember
i had a little peep out of his dick hole wasn't enjoying the match went back to how long were you
in the balls well how long are you in the when was your birthday 92 yeah right i think you might
have gone a bit stale in the ball sack kid explains a lot i think my favorite tournament was 2002
because um south korea was it 98 south korea japan was 2002 yeah so that, Japan was it 98? South Korea, Japan
was 2002
yeah
so that was the one
that was stupidly early
we used to watch it in school
so our school
would open up
at like 5 o'clock
in the morning
and you could go in
before school
to watch the end of the match
was that the Nigeria game
was the ridiculously
early kick off
I remember the Brazil one
the Brazil one as well
we got knocked out
we finished at like
8am
so we watched it
oh was that 6am as well
yeah
Ronaldinho's Brazil
do you know he got sent off
in that game
did he
yeah
did he just
is that the one he caught
Seaman off his line
yeah yeah
he got sent off
7 minutes later
when he saw that
did he
we got
we got bested by
the best team in the competition
though didn't we
one of the best team
international teams ever
they beat Turkey
in the semis
they did yeah they did remember and then they beat Germany in the competition though didn't we? One of the best international teams ever. They beat Turkey in the semis.
They did?
Yeah they did.
And then they beat Germany in the final.
Yeah.
Ronaldo scored too.
Yeah I remember
that
the hyena in Newcastle
being open
at stupid
in the morning
and 300
like tired
grumpy Geordies
watching England.
It was really weird.
Like the licensing
just opened up.
How old were you then?
10?
Were you about 10?
10.
Yeah.
So I remember Italian 90.
It was just as I was getting into football,
but I just about remember it.
I remember the Pavarotti song.
That was the big thing.
It was Nessim Dore or whatever it's called.
And every time I hear it,
I think most people who were alive then hear it and go,
Italian 90s.
Pacelli sang it last week, didn't he?
Yeah.
The opening ceremony, and I was like,
fuck, this is amazing.
Yeah.
My favourite England song by a mile is Three Lions, though.
I don't think anything else comes close.
Really?
I like how context is on the ball because it's funny.
It's a bit stupid.
It's coming home.
It's coming home.
It's coming. Football's coming home it's coming
football's coming
so that was Euro 96
and that was when I was
bang into football
like we
I can't
so Italian 90
was massive
because England did well
we didn't qualify
for Euro 92
did we not?
I don't think we were there
it was
it was Denmark won it
against Germany
in the final
I might be wrong
did Michael Laudrup
not go to that tournament
I think
great
because he was like
because he played for Denmark
and he was their star
and he was like
we're not going to win it
so I'm going to have to
sort it off
can't be arsed
and then they won it
they beat Germany
in the final
I think Graham Taylor
fucked up
and we didn't qualify
or was it
Sweden oh oh you is it yeah oh it's the World Cup it's the World Cup not English I think Graham Taylor fucked up and we didn't qualify. Or was it Sweden?
Oh, you, is it?
Yeah.
Oh, it's the World Cup.
It's the World Cup.
Sorry, I've confused it with World Cup 94.
We didn't qualify for World Cup 94.
Carl getting pissed off there because in his head,
real is Wales, but not really.
That's really funny.
Mate, Euro 96 though
oh my god
it was so good
that was the
that was the most proud
like it was an amazing feeling
and when we beat
I think we beat the Dutch
like 4-1
it was the strangest feeling
to be English
and being like
we're fucking incredible
like it felt like
you were amazing
and to lose to Germany like we did was just so...
Was it the semis we lost?
I think we beat Spain in the quarterfinals.
Beat Scotland as well, didn't we?
That was in the group.
I think we drew with Switzerland,
beat Scotland, beat Holland.
And we beat Spain on pens.
That was a really boring match, as I remember it.
And then the semis,
Gazza just fell short of just tapping in a ball.
Oh, the slide.
Just because he was amazing,
but he was sort of fat.
Just like with his tubby little legs,
like just couldn't quite reach it.
I've seen Paul Gascoigne head to toe naked.
Wow.
In person. Wow. On a picture? No, they can toe naked. Wow. In person.
Wow.
On a picture.
No, they can get a picture now.
In your girlfriend's vagina.
Sorry.
I like Gascoigne.
I was masked off.
What a massive in here.
Hey, get off the horse.
Show a bit of respect.
Sorry, go on.
I was masked off at Everton.
No humour whatsoever.
Carl will fuck around for a bit,
but he's like, this is too real.
It's not real.
Paul Gascoigne wasn't in here Fanny
so when was
when were you the
2001
so I was nine
yeah it's a very valid
time to be
one of the
mascots
and do you remember
Danny Cadimatri
I do
ended up playing
for Bradford
yeah he was my like
he was the person
who took me around
all day
so he showed me
like everything
and he went
we're going to go
into change rooms
now you'll be able to see all the players
so I sat next to them all
and got pictures
and I went in
and got pictures of
Doug Ferguson
people like that
Kevin Campbell
Is this the one to one era?
It was one to one yeah
and he opened the door
to the next part of the
dressing room
and Gazza was just
stood there
head to toe
just next to the door
and I'm only a kid
and he went
he must have been like poor fuck and he slammed the door And I'm only a kid And he went He must have been like
Poor fuck
And he just like
Slammed the door
You alright?
I was like
Yeah yeah yeah
Back then Gaza
Wasn't anything to me really
Because I was only young
Yeah but then he was
Now it's poor Gascon
In your head
How big was his dick?
Based on your memory
Quite
Good
He had a good dick
That's what he's remembered for
Isn't it?
His dick
Yeah
It's a wizard
I thought totally knocked it
over that Scotland
fella's head
I've never seen that
guy
someone should show
it
someone should show
it on TV
or the internet
he showed that
guy
he's on loads
this week
has he
yeah
alright cool
haven't seen it
that's my favourite
thing to do
when you're being
stupid
to just go one level more
of stupid
and watch you be like
is he being
no he's taking the piss
but no fact about that game
we beat Leicester 2-1
and it was Roberto Mancini's
last ever game
as a professional footballer
playing for Leicester
what?
Roberto Mancini
I absolutely do
I had no idea
he played for Leicester
he was playing for Leicester
in that game
and it was his last ever professional game phenomenal O idea he played for Leicester. He was playing for Leicester in that game and it was his last ever professional game.
Phenomenal.
O'Neill's Leicester.
Was it, yeah?
Captain was Darren Goff for Everton
and Savage was it for Leicester, I think?
I love it when,
I know it's well trodden and everything,
but when, like on a stag do,
they go to the football
and they've all had a whip around
and made their 36 year old mate the mascot.
When that goes viral,
I know it's probably someone else's joke,
but it's just amazing visuals.
When a club,
and it's never the,
I don't think the Premier League clubs
would let you do it,
but at League One,
they're like,
mate, if you pay your 85 quid,
you can have your dickhead mate.
And they come out.
And then I've seen one where they go out and he's holding hands with the captain
and they just play along with it.
It's so fucking funny.
Could you do that?
Because I would love to do that for myself,
but then just try and not leave the pitch.
Just try and play the game.
See if anyone notices.
I think they'd have a clue.
Yeah, but if you just play in between the lines, if anyone notices I think they'd have a clue yeah but if you just
play in between the lines
people will just be like
oh
that's what would
make you disappear
he's gone between the lines
what were the 56,000 people
at Anfield doing
just couldn't see
between the lines
Adam's so silky
they were like
is that Shaqiri
Shaqiri's lost weight
hasn't he got thin legs
that's from before
yeah
just like
slot into that attack
and mid roll
behind the two strikers
is that where you see yourself
yeah
but you've got to kick off
that's how you see yourself
camp
yeah
yeah
I can spray a pass
oh yeah
where are you standing
for kick off
what
do you want to take
on the knee
I'll take the kick off
because like no one's
ever got an eye on
the person in the middle
they're always like
what's the formation here
so they'll be clocking it
they'll be like right there
no one's ever got the eye
on the person who
takes the kick off
no they're always
looking at everyone else
is that a common
misconception
people will be like
there's Salah
there's Mane
there's Firmino
on the TV pictures
yeah
when the guy
in the middle
rolls the ball
No one's looking at that
You never
I don't even see that
It's quite zoomed out
From the main stand
Like if you're just
Like squinting
And looking at me
It could be
It could be Manny
Hey
If you're really doing this
It could be Sadio Manny
Yeah
How much sunburn
Have you got?
Scared yourself there, didn't you?
Oh, I had to dry my mouth I think they'd notice
If you scored, they'd notice as well
Imagine if I scored though
Imagine if I managed to stay on the pitch
And avoid being clocked for like though imagine if I managed to stay on the pitch and avoid being
like clocked
for like
two minutes
and I managed to score
and that's when
everyone was like
hang on
that's Adam Rowe
I love it
I love it
funny space
I love it
all Adam needs
is two minutes
of a Premier League
two minutes you just Premier League two minutes
you just give him
two minutes
obviously he's going
to get detected
at three
he's just got to
score in that
first two minutes
how many Premier League
games have a goal
in the first two minutes
probably about three
percent maybe even
less but Adam just
needs that time
he's the twelfth man
what would you have
on your
what numbers and
name would you have
because obviously
that's another
that's you've got to
be careful with that
haven't you
because you can't
easy Dan
getting excited
I've just
clocked myself in the face
for the audio listeners
having a great time
and losing control
of my limbs
you can't have like Gerrard
what are you going to
no
I'm not Stephen Gerrard
are you going to have Ro
and they'll be like
hang on he's retired
that'd be the thing
that'd give it away
hey Stephen Gerrard's there
oh hang on
he's retired
that's the thing
he's managing Rangers
he can't be here
I'm almost sure
that's him
or Manny
he doesn't have Ro
because if anyone can see it
they'll be like
I don't know Ro
so he's got to be a player
coming through the ranks
what about Takumi
Minamato
what about Takumi
Minamart
Minamino
Minamino
Minamino
Minidico
yeah I'll have to grow my hair a bit yeah so you're he hasn't played that much anyway What about Takumi Minamata? Minamino. Minamino. Minamino. Minidicko.
Yeah.
I'll have to grow my hair a bit.
Yeah.
He hasn't played that much anyway,
so people might not even recognise him.
You look more Japanese than not.
Yeah.
You're taking the role of Takumi Minamino
next season for Liverpool.
Fucking hell.
And no one's going to notice
and you're going to score?
I'm just saying it's possible.
I'm not saying it's guaranteed.
He'll appreciate it. Yeah. He's saying it's guaranteed. He'll appreciate it.
Yeah?
He's trying to prove himself.
He can just have a few...
Go on, Oldie.
He's at Southampton, isn't he, right now?
He's unknown, so that's another problem, isn't it?
Fucking Minamoto's just scored.
That's three points gone.
I'm not all right with the Mane joke that I did.
I'm just having to take that in a little bit.
I think we need a moment.
Do you want to have a break?
Absolute pleasure.
Pleasure.
Euro 96 to Gazza's dick very quickly.
What's happening, guys?
Ooh, look at your outfit.
Shocking.
You look horrible in that.
That's a shitty shirt, jumper, dress, thing, whatever that is you've got on.
What you need, lad, is a fucking t-shirt or a hoodie from haveawaredpod.com.
You want some official Have A Wared merch? Go to haveawaredpod.com and get some then,
instead of wearing that fucking shite you've got on. It's horrible. You look a joke.
Don't be leaving the house like that. You want a hoodie that says rat?
That's what you need, lad. Go and halfwaypod.com back part three of four we're back welcome back hope
you enjoyed your little break there hope you whatever sponsor we fucking slid in hope you've
gone and give them some money so that they keep giving us money you know what i mean adam explaining
adverts to you there you go That's adverts with Adam Rowe
Scouse accents are always a bit more threatening
When they're quiet aren't they
Hey
There you go
Lad
Oh yeah yeah
I know what you mean
Oh definitely
Definitely
Yeah
No trouble lad
No trouble lad
I had that in hot water once you know
Did I tell you that
That lad do threaten me
No
I just get threatened every night in hot water
Why
Like for kicking people out Alright And and um you're supposed to like and then this lad went
to him to the bouncer what's his name the bouncer i can't tell you that he went all right i'll be
back don't worry about it i was like that's oh so relaxed he's like yeah because truly influential
people on the nasty side,
like guns and that,
they don't need to shout,
do they?
Yeah.
They're just nice and calm.
He was like,
it's all right,
lad,
don't worry about it.
It's like small bounces.
Yeah.
Small bounces,
they're like got gherka strength.
No,
but some of them have just got
small man syndrome
and just decided to learn
how to kick people's head in.
How do you know the difference
till it's too late?
Because the small ones
who are like trying to compensate for something very loud and aggressive there we go what's
gherka strength do you know the gherkas they were like the that they fought with a tiny little like
really like penfold out of danger mouse looking fellas why do you want a lovely girl she does
the thing with them she's a gherka Joanna Lumley was a Gurkha Milo's here by the way
Milo McKenzie
that's not the first time
you're going to cut to him
though is it
we've not just got Milo
going
why did they
threaten you
she's like the head
of the Gurkha charity
isn't she
she's done the stuff
with them yeah
is that right
yeah
she got Gurkha
equality
she got them the vote
equal pay
and they were allowed
to live in
England
thanks for that
Joanna Lumley's
PR lady
yeah they're
just the most
like
polite
smart
tiny looking
you know
but they're the
deadliest people
like
in terms of the army
and stuff like that
they just hammer
everybody
or so I believe
I probably don't know
as much about it as you
I just watched
one advert
for joanna lumley and the gakers on itv1 i didn't even watch the program i watched the advert you
got what you needed i don't know whether she fought for equality at all and i made all that up
no maybe they haven't got maybe they can't even give blood yet i don't even know i think he's i
think he's right i think he basically they got citizenship didn't they have to fight him for the
for the british i just know they're hard as fuck.
They're nails.
They're nails, yeah.
But if you ever see Joanna Lumley
working the door,
you've got to be careful of her
because she knows loads of gherkas.
It was only this week,
by the way,
slight sidestep,
that the gays were allowed
to start donating blood.
Yeah, yeah.
The gays.
The gays.
It's a victory for the gays.
Nice.
My mate was a phlebotomist in the whirl and he said it's on the
thing sounds like a posh fucking bar doesn't it have you been to the phlebotomist yeah yeah
the cocktails are amazing i don't know if they they actually said are you gay on the form you're
giving blood but you have to say like have you ever been anally penetrated by a man and stuff
like that or in the last three months have you i think i might be getting it
wrong but i think it's because some stis uh take up to three months yeah to be detectable so they
didn't want any like aids blood that was that was the logic behind it i have only just put together what a phlebotomist
is from that last comment blood missed i wasn't sure it's a blood container yeah a blood cunt
now i know that now but when he said it i was like ah sounds like a cocktail bar and then in
my head i was like i don't actually know what's happening so the anal penetration seems like an
aggressive bit of the questionnaire if you're like getting your eyes done at spec savers
brilliant are you nearsighted
or farsighted
you've been fucked in the arse
only in the last three months
Jesus Christ
yeah
but the gays can give blood now
yeah
good one
good for them
are you going to
argue against this now
no no no
I just want to know
why they were arsed
do you know what I mean
not like bummed I don't mean arsed. Do you know what I mean? Not like bummed.
I don't mean arsed.
Do you want a spade, Adam?
You know how I wanted to give blood,
and they were like,
oh, Scousers can't give blood.
You'd be up in fucking arms.
I wouldn't.
Scouse Twitter,
I'd be off.
Steph Johnson would be at blood banks.
Yeah, but I wouldn't.
That's what I'm saying.
I think a lot of... You'd have a chance to kick off. Oh, I'd be off. Steph Johnson would be at blood banks. Yeah, but I wouldn't. That's what I'm saying. I think a lot of...
You would.
You'd have a chance
to kick off.
Oh, I'd just be like,
oh, well,
that's something
I don't get to do.
I mean,
I get why they
were a bit more upset.
Scouse blood
for fucking Scousers.
There's been a car crash
near Wigan.
They'll fucking...
They're not having
our blood.
They don't want it.
They're not allowed it.
Yeah, you'd be
absolutely mentally
about it, surely.
Not you, particularly. Scousers. But if the Tory government they don't want it they're not allowed it yeah you'd be absolutely mentally about it surely not you particularly
scousers
but if the Tory
government
said no scouse blood
is allowed to leave
Merseyside
good god
do you reckon if
Boris Johnson
needed a blood transfusion
they were like
only got a fucking
scousers
who's the only
IB positive
in the whole fucking
gaff
wow
do you reckon he'd be like
nah
I mean
you'd really think that
the Illuminati
and the Masons
and whoever else
shady fucking
like
groups and clubs
that he's a part of
would really let him down
they're like
Boris has been an excellent
there's no blood
apart from this
from Crocky
I've got some Crocky blood
I love how in your head
Boris Johnson
needs a blood transfusion
and a representative
of the Illuminati
the Masons
and then the clubs he's involved in yeah he's squashed all all gonna meet him right
who's got ib positive who's got it if he is in the illuminati or was and the whole pandemic's
been planned to make a cash-free artless society they didn't tell him about it do you know what i
mean he's been left out of that conversation if it's all a massive he's not acting like someone who knows
what the fuck's going on
of course not
he's been given the boot
he's the puppet
for the Illuminati
that's what I thought
this week
you know when the
Newsnight journalist
I forget his name
it's Nick something
he got like harassed
didn't he
leaving the BBC building
by
Nick Robinson
anti-lockdown
anti-mask
anti-vax people
they were all like
you traitor you scumbag, you fucking asshole.
You're making people believe in this thing.
What I don't get about those people
is they can't possibly think
that there's a worldwide conspiracy
that the host of Newsnight is in on.
Do you know what I mean?
You can't keep it under wraps
with people that low down,
the Illuminati pecking order, knowing about it.
So this guy's just, even if they're right
and there's an Illuminati thing to make everything going on,
they're not telling Newsnight or Boris Johnson.
It's literally the elites, isn't it?
Yeah, of course.
They're not telling those runners.
I love it, how in Adam's breaking down of it.
It could be happening.
It probably is happening,
but you're talking about where the information gets to. You're rejecting it as a concept you're saying it's not filtering down to
like the head of the political like whatever what is he nick robinson's like the lead political
editor or something isn't it news night right and he does the puppets on cbbs and he does the
puppies on cbbs yeah yeah yeah he does justin's house yeah yeah yeah well but that's cuts with the bbc they've got
to double up on them see the robot guy
justin for justin justin my kids have just grown out of the justin phase as well i i honestly i
always i first time i saw him i, there's something not right about you.
The BBC.
Fucking, this is the BBC with Justin.
Please don't be a nonce.
They've literally put all their fucking chips into the Justin bow.
If he's a nonce, there will never be children's television on the BBC ever again.
He's the Bill Burr of children's TV.
He's like Chappelle and Burr
rolled into one.
I wouldn't let my children
near any children's
TV presenters.
Who's the one who wears
like the mad webs and that?
They're all weird
at the very least.
I like Justin,
Justin,
I would say,
I don't know anything about him.
I'd say he still lives
with his mum.
I'd say he was bullied
as a kid.
He looks like a large baby.
I mean mean he does
it's brilliant
you can't
it's just I don't
know there's
something in my
radar
every time
could you get him
off on the screen
so I can see what
it looks like
yeah
this might be
really unfair
and completely
I think it is
I've had to sit
through it
I think it is
but it's definitely
funnier that you're
calling him an
absolute weirdo
but I think he
earns a like
400 grand a year
or something
oh him
way more than that
oh
Mr Tumble
yeah that's all you needed to say
oh sorry
Mr Tumble
yeah that's one of his
he's got like
he looks like the head
of a garden section
at B&Q
do you know what I mean
do you know what I mean though
like if he come up to me
and show me like
where the mint plants were
I wouldn't question it
Yeah
If he walked up to you and went
Not in that
Not in the clown costume
You're doing some of the charity today
Do you want to find those plants?
So he has to be squeaky clean
Can we find out what he's paid please
I'm going to guess he's on a million a year
Hang on he's married Did that just say he's married? He's paid, please. It has to be squeaky clean. I'm going to guess he's on a million a year. No.
Hang on, he's married.
Did that just say he's married?
Oh, he's on nothing.
I'm not having that.
I'm not having that because why is it in dollars?
His net worth is 1.5 million.
Yeah, but some of these are so like, you know Ryan Cullen, Irish comedian?
Apparently, according, his net worth is 11 million pounds.
Right.
Do you know what I mean?
I don't know where they get the data from.
He's not married.
Do you think there might be another Ryan Cullen?
Will you check my net worth?
I've never done this.
I think it says below, it has like below a certain number
for people who don't know whose it is.
So it'll say below 500K probably.
1.38 million.
Adam Rose current net worth of 1.38 million.
Oh, that's the actor, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, don't worry.
That's the actor.
The IRS isn't coming after you.
I've acted.
That's not bad.
$900,000.
Is that like assets and everything?
Art director, art department, and production designer.
Right.
I think they've lumped the two of you together.
Known for movies.
Oh, even in Dexter. Dexter, Parks mad men and criminal minds you've been keeping you're not
usually keeping your career that quiet but apparently you were in mad men before you ever
did an open spot so not really your style on social media to keep it hush hush that's you
isn't it yeah oh no no don't go don't do that thing
when they go on
we did that
put to Paul Smith
it's so good
let's see it
it's public information
people can google it
anyway if they want
let's have a look
there you go
Adam Rowling
limits of credit report
how much have I got
no don't go on
credit score
that's going to be
embarrassing
doesn't say it's just a list of every star who's missed it Dom Tov and Isaac Jacobs No, don't go on credit score. That's going to be embarrassing.
Doesn't say.
It's just a list of every star. Who's Mr. Yomtov Eliza Jacobs?
Who's that?
My middle name is not Michael either.
Who's running my company?
Have you registered as a company?
Yeah, I'm Adam Rowland.
I'd be Adam Rowland comedian.
That's not you, is it?
Mr. Yomtov Eliza Jacob is now ripping you the fuck off.
He only lasted.
No,
he resigned in 2013.
He resigned the same day that he started.
Disgrace.
He's joined your company.
It was,
look,
it was like,
fuck that.
I'm out of here.
To be fair,
the company in 2013 was making negative equity.
There we go.
Let's have a little search of that nightingale i'm not a limited company
thank fuck all right i'm a sole trader who doesn't have his financials on the internet
although to be fair neither does adam because that was some other cunt that has
whatever dr jacobs you're off to get it lad thanks lad. Thanks. Nice one. That's so funny. If you search Dan Nightingale comedian,
the second result is my Wikipedia page.
Nice.
That is so depressed.
That sums up my career so badly.
Hang on.
My second Google spot is... Can you open my wiki?
Adam Rowe is an English comedian,
broadcaster and songwriter from Liverpool.
Rowe is perhaps known best for his love of pegging.
Nice.
Roe was brought up in Dovecott and West Arby at his Liverpool.
Roe started the maths degree at the University of Liverpool
because he did really well at school,
but did not complete it in order to concentrate on performing comedy.
True.
Have you seen his personal life?
Roe has been in a long-term relationship for many years.
His partner's name is Sensei Carl,
and although she belittles him at every opportunity in the pod they seem very happy if not slightly
volatile so where'd the pegging thing come from there is this like lies it's like oh i don't i
don't like getting bummed but i had a stand-up routine about it yeah so you tried it no didn't
you no surely if that's going to be a well-informed stand-up routine, you've got to...
No, the routine was about how I didn't want to do it.
Oh, fair enough.
Have you tried it?
Have I tried it?
Have you?
I've had it, not a full, like...
Fist?
Nah.
Not a fist.
Not like a kind of an Italian...
Chef's kiss.
Yeah.
No, I've had a vibrator on there.
It was awesome
okay we're gonna have
a little break now
cockyogurt.co.uk
have you not
no
ever
I've had a finger up my ass
yeah it was the same
just slightly bigger finger
innit
no
it's a plastic vibrating
finger innit
yeah
pretty much
if your missus
if your missus
slips on a finger
you can be like
I can see how this panned out
yeah
if she slips from a vibrator
without asking
I think you're a victim
I'll tell you what it's like
right
I'll tell you what it's like
first of all
it feels like you're getting bullied
right
it's horrible
it's just like
fuck this
the idea of this
or however
is better right
why
but why does it feel like
why
what about it
because it's just
she took us money as well
yeah
because she's whispering in your ear if you tell anyone about it? Because it's just... She took his money as well. Yeah.
Because she's whispering it in your ear.
If you tell anyone about this.
And then it kind of feels awesome.
And then it doesn't.
It's like, it's a weird one.
I don't think I fully relaxed.
I don't think I enjoyed it to the capacity that you could potentially enjoy it to.
Was it a strap on?
It was a long time ago.
Was it?
No.
That's not pegging then?
It's not brave.
It's semi pegging. Whatever the's it's semi semi pegging whatever the
next semi pegging grade down what is it not pegging what's it defined as pegging is strap
on getting bummed by a woman right what do you i'll be i'd have the vaping version of if that
was cigarette right okay i see what you mean sanitized version yeah but i think that's why
surely most people start i. I don't know.
Why wouldn't you try it?
Would you try it because you'd be afraid
if you enjoyed it
and it'd be something you'd have to bring up
No, it's not about that
because I don't mind a little tongue on me,
but more so I obviously like it.
Why are you getting so coy?
I don't want to be...
Why are you hiding?
Because it's just something you're fucking...
No, I'm not.
I just...
We spend, honestly, about 30% of this podcast
talking about Adam's IBS.
I do as well.
So I am not the only one who's going,
ooh, this is not really where we've been talking about having tongues a lot in the podcast.
It just made me go, brave girl or boy.
I've never touched anyone's mouth.
Ever.
The tonguing thing is nuts because it feels sensational.
But the other side of you, it's hard to shut off from like,
oh God, like what's going on for you down there?
Do you know what I mean?
Yeah, is it like, I mean, it sounds fun.
You've never been tongued or probed?
I never asked for it.
Do you know what I mean?
Oh, I've asked Laura for a snuffle, but she's not into it.
What's a snuffle?
Snuffling for truffles.
What is it?
Oh, like rimming.
Is that right?
Is a snuffle rimming?
Oh, get in there. Does that have a word? Get in the scrunt. No, like, rimming. Is that, is a snuffle rimming? Oh, get in there.
Does that have a word?
Get in the scrunt.
No, she's not keen.
No, I don't ask for it,
but if it happens, it happens, doesn't it?
You don't ask for it.
No.
Just happens.
Just happens.
How does it just happen?
Just the tongue ends up down there.
When she's improvising.
If the lady in question wants to lick me bumhole,
I'm not going to stop her,
but I'm also not going to ask for it.
All right.
So what is it, a surprise?
Like, are you tying your shoelace?
Whoop. No, it's not like when we're on the way out yeah it's while we're already having
sex maybe a young lady is sucking on my bellend and then she goes for now i'll leave that for a
bit i'll just rub it right i'll let it happen but if if you had someone at the beginning who
looked at it like like right i'm gonna item and I'm going to make this fucking amazing for you.
Right, list me five things you want me to do.
Like a bit of pre-sex admin.
Would you put that in the list?
Oh, good question.
I get quite hungry after sex.
The first thing would probably be pre-heat the oven.
Like literally the oven downstairs.
Turn the oven on, get that ready.
Right.
The chicken strips.
Pre-heat the oven.
Yeah.
Pre-heat the oven. And then ready right the chicken strips preheat the oven yeah preheat the oven and then
preheat your own oven
fucking absolutely right
wank me off
suck me dick
lick me arsehole
jump all over me telecom
nah you're getting coy
number five
yeah
and then
put the chicken in the oven
and then chicken dippers
let me fork you
let me pull you there jizz on. And then chicken dippers. Let me fork you. Let me pull you there.
Chiseling your tits.
Chicken dippers.
Any sauce?
There's no direct answer there, right?
Which I swear means there's some fetish
that he's not talking about.
No, I know.
Oh, Milo.
I'm very open about the fact
that I like a little tennis skirt.
I like the idea of it,
but the reality, what you're talking about, I think you explained tennis skirt I like the idea of it but the reality
what you're talking about
I think you explained
it beautifully
is how I imagine it
like
bit weird at first
then there's a sweet spot
and then afterwards
you're like
oh god
which is
like
all masturbation
has a bit of like
oh god
I think
I think the high
doesn't like
doesn't justify
the low
what you need to stop wanking on roller coasters
4,000 patrons
there's never a mid wank dip
where I'm not enjoying it
no
I'm talking about
at the end when you go
that's what he's talking about
he gets to the
The middle part
And it's like
Whey
Yeah
And then afterwards
You're like
I've got something in my bum bum
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah that bit
Yeah
The reality check
Right after it's finished
Exactly
Because
Because like you'd
You know
If you'd got there
It's the second after you've
You know
Come anyway
Which is
A moment that
Carries enough weight
And then the thing's
Got to come out
Fucking idiots I just think If you finish sex and something needs to go in the dishwasher something's not
right you can't dishwasher strap on thanks for that johnny fax
you have to do that by hand in the sink with its own scrubber but you know that scrubber goes in
the bin but you've never done it adam i think I think you've got to try this shit, though,
and find out if you like it.
Do you know what I mean?
No, you don't.
Like, I don't want to.
No, I'm talking about years ago, right?
Because I'm married now, and I'm a married person's sex,
which is sort of very different, but better in its own way.
And you know what I'm talking about.
It turns into something else.
Like, when you're younger and single, it's like,
oh, nasty reward sex, where it's sort of a bit
whatever stranger i happened to be fucking 20 years ago and and like you know and then and then
i don't know when i was younger i think i was single and i was taking advantage of that but
then you get in a marriage a relationship you start having love sex and it's just different
isn't it sort of you have to get used to it did you find that because when you like i think i think booze
changes it up when you're in a long-term relationship you have like the normal sex
you're like you i know what you like you know what i like and it's really and then there's like the
time when you stay over somewhere for a wedding and all of a sudden you've had three sambucas and
all like it gets your wife goes from like i love you so much you're the father of my children then
it's like yeah i think that i think booze
adds a layer of yeah mystique to it without that it's pretty standard like this we could almost do
the positions to like this is how we start and then you get irritated by me doing this badly
and then you go on top powder powder it's quite a rhythm to it yeah and if i if i change something
up there's a there's like a noticeable like like, from Laura, like, oh! Having an affair.
What's this?
Surprise, surprise.
Good on you.
Like, it's that notable.
But if we're away, there's been a bit of booze involved.
It's literally like two different people.
Yeah, yeah.
In my experience.
Yeah, man.
And the one time we did a bit of cocaine, fucking hell, that got great.
That was great fun.
Before we had kids, there was one night where we got a bit of coke in and it like, it was epic.
I think that was the high point of our sexual performance.
And that was about five and a half years ago.
And you, it's tough, isn't it?
Because you don't want to make that a thing.
You don't want to make that a thing that you do.
Oh no, Laura's completely done with that.
And I'm pretending to be.
I had a drive up yesterday. I got up early in the morning and i
had to drive up to the gig and then we did the two gigs and i'd um i'd had a load of coffee and
and at the end of the second gig there's somebody who comes to see me sometimes and and she messaged
me and i came to meet her and it was a bit weird because you know in hot water where the green room
is everyone's filing out and of course i'm in there in character but i'm not going to hold
character talking to this person right because she but I'm not going to hold character
talking to this person, right?
Because she knows I'm not going to.
So these people are filing out.
Just for anyone who doesn't know,
Milo doesn't perform as himself on stage.
He performs as a character called Troy Hawk.
Yeah, I essentially sort of have this embroidered blanket
and just hide my true self behind that
every time I can.
Very well though.
Thank you very much
but i'm talking to this woman and i'm kind of a bit distracted you know when you're like i just
want to sort of you're very nice and i want to see you but i want to get back there and have a drink
and tour and she sent me a message uh today guys i don't know if you're tired or what or spaced out
or you're on something because really you need to think about your wife and kids and she was
basically implying that i was on heroin or something like that.
Like I was that spaced out and she was sort of,
hang on, I'll read you the message now. Would you try heroin?
Would I?
No.
I don't.
No, yes.
Christ.
I think I would.
I don't see why not.
No, no, please don't.
He's done.
That's how the mask says.
That is every third episode.
I try quite a lot.
No, she sent me this message and she said.
I try heroin and then pegging.
That's how that would go down.
Hang on.
So this was before the gig you were chatting to her?
I was chatting to her after the gig.
Oh, after the gig.
Right.
This is the teacher in me coming out now.
And sorry, Rosella, if you're watching,
but it's all very sweet.
As a teacher, I was worried about you after I left.
Not sure if you were tired, ill or on something,
but you seem spaced out.
If tired, don't burn yourself out.
You've got a packed few evenings ahead.
Get rest.
I hope you pick up.
If it's the latter,
do whatever makes you happy
as long as you don't deliberately hurt anyone.
I've lost people to drugs.
Take it easy.
Think about your beautiful little girls
and your stunning wife.
They would be devastated
if anything happened to you.
Not a lecture,
just a loving concern for your wellbeing.
Would miss you if anything happened.
I'd had three coffees
and I was a bit smacked.
Wow.
But she's so lovely.
You had three coffees
and it has the effect on you.
Basically,
she tried to do an intervention
via Instagram messages.
100,000%
and it's all really well-intentioned
and sweet.
But like,
I come across quite intense
sometimes anyway
and I didn't realise
until we did some gigs
and you said to me, I think it was in wherever the fuck it was,
the skiing gigs.
Oh, we went on some skiing gigs, I remember.
And you said to me, well, you're quite intense.
And I was like, am I intense?
And you went, are you intense?
Like, you fucking...
I wasn't having a go.
No, I know.
But it was the first time I realized.
I was like, oh, yeah.
We were having a conversation and you, I think,
intensities came up and I was like, yeah, Milo're intense it's it's i love your company yeah but when you're
having a conversation about it you could be like i'm thinking about sort of like getting a new lawn
mower and you're like fuck yeah what kind of lawn mower are you gonna get you really need to think
about petrol electric gonna get rechargeable what kind of width do you want on the lawnmower and
then all of a sudden you're like this is the most intense and you don't give a shit about lawnmowers but you're so good whenever you critique
my stand-up i almost feel like oh god someone like sees me too much like it's really on point
and everything yeah and it was just because intensity came up so i went yeah because you're
kind of intense and i remember you reacted like i've never been called intense before. Yeah, but you're absolutely right.
Because most people who are intense are also violent.
So people don't tell people they're intense
in case they mad at them in their sleep.
Yeah, Milo is the friendliest, nicest guy ever
with the intense.
You're a bit intense instead of being like,
oh, Big John's angry.
Do you know what's hammered it fucking home for me?
And I don't know if you're seeing this with your kids when i see how intense my eldest is and she's basically me
i'm looking at that now and i'm going oh fuck like i've been like that my whole life bless her
and it's not a bad thing it's just full on do you know what i mean oh i remember that that reminds
me of when we were sat there at dinner and the australian wife of the guy simon who we were
staying with and we were all just sat having dinner,
and she'd had a few wines,
and she was like eyeballing you.
And I clocked her eyeballing Milo.
She was like,
you know when someone's just a bit pissed
and it's getting a bit intense?
And then the conversation was flowing all around,
and then she just went quite,
like a little too loud because she'd had a beer over someone else talking already.
Went, you could be a model.
Oh, fuck.
You could have been a male model.
And the whole table was like, okay, roll your flaps up, Janet.
Jesus Christ.
Do you want to get your vagina out here on the dining table?
I think he's already eating.
Jesus Christ, it was the most intense moment.
So she topped your intensity for that fucking 10 seconds.
Yeah.
So what do you say to that?
What do you do?
The husband's just sitting there.
We talked about that on the Kai Humphries episode
where we almost died on the side of a mountain
because you got in your head about,
talking about the intensity,
you got in your head about skiing
and you decided that you just couldn't do it
Problem was we were about a mile and a half
Up a fucking mountain
I just want to say this
And it's going dark
I've never been skiing before
But I'm going to altitude
Yeah
I have been skiing a couple of times
But just indoors
Next year I'm going to altitude
And I'm fully convinced
That I'm going to be on the highest best slope
By the end of the week
Yeah
Everything checks out Everything checks out I'm sure that'll work out Everything best slope by the end of the week. Yeah. Everything checks out.
Everything checks out.
I'm sure that'll work out.
Everything checks out.
You've got a low centre of gravity,
you'll hammer down that fucking hill.
A really high centre of gravity.
Yeah.
It's like hard on a lemon.
High centre of gravity
is in my chin, I think.
If he nods,
he can fall over.
Try a bit dizzy.
Just at every head.
We were fine. We got down. not you just got in your own head i
kai's a good skier yeah what happened was i've done it like four times on an empty slope and
i was going down red runs super fast and i was like right i fucking got this and then the first
time we did it i hit a bit of ice and i went over and i ripped my thumb open and that was it i was
in my head oh yeah and and then we were stuck at the very top and it was like seven and it was
starting to get dark and we were panicking and yeah.
It wasn't quite seven,
was it?
It was,
it was something really innocuous,
like quarter to five,
which is late enough.
Yeah.
Cause once it goes dark,
it goes dark.
The new,
the point I knew were in a bit of a weird spot is as we were halfway down,
the snow plow was going up the mountain with its lights on,
which is basically what they do at the
end of the day they just smooth over all the ski runs and we're like come on milo you're fine and
he's doing like that was pizza french fries are you gonna take lessons when you get when you get
i would i would take i'm gonna go to chill factor in manchester like right every week until i go
i remember literally i'll come with you that
would be amazing you had a very odd relationship with sweets on that holiday I remember you're
like buy a massive box of sweets have three of them and then fucking hoy him off somewhere
and I remember um in the morning you guys had been out the night before in the morning we were
walking past this hedge going into town and there were all these like dead jelly snakes and sort of
bloated jelly babies that had been slung in the hedge and had been rain bloated and there were all these like dead jelly snakes and sort of bloated jelly babies that
had been slung in the hedge and had been rain bloated and they were just sat there dying like
tiny jelly corpses i was like that's so disgusting you know why it was because i'd done that diet
and i'd starved myself of all the fun stuff yeah and i used to get sugar cravings so we'd go to
like the french supermarket i'd spend however many euros,
just like a stupid amount of euros for pick and mix.
You'd buy like a fuckload and then have one.
Then I'd be eating them on the way home
and then be like,
you big fat sugary slap.
And just grab them and throw.
And then I wouldn't throw the packaging in the thing,
but I'd literally throw the jelly beans away.
So the animals could have them.
No, so I wouldn't eat them. So were spoiled yeah yeah like nightingale we saw fucking
pick a mix in the hedge like have you got better at skiing since no i haven't ever done it since
i just i hate being shit at stuff all right it's a real problem i'm like this i if i'm shit i just
don't do it anymore yeah i hate being shit stuff and i love stuff with a high gradient of improvement where you can get better with technique and stuff like comedy
or like boxing or something like that stuff that's hard but you can commit to but if i'm
shit at something it's like i'm not going to be happy unless i love it i hate being shit at things
yeah and with skiing you've also got to put up with it's a weird leveler you could be the best
comedian in that group of comics
and there could be someone who's clearly like the newbie or whatever but if they've skied for 20
years it is a weird thing where all the status goes you could be the headliner the absolute name
and then all of a sudden this guy like who's this someone's mate or whatever is an expert skier and and you go it's
like not being able to walk and then you can see someone just like flowing around it's a really
weird thing to get your head around going i don't like this i'm really good at life and then all of
a sudden we're on a mountain and you're the fucking ninja and i can't i can't stand up yeah
have you ever been skiing never no no never do Like, never. Do you want to, though? Yeah, I can't wait.
Yeah.
The skiing abroad's special,
and altitude is particularly special because it's not like when we went to the Alps,
it was because there was a guy from Llandudno
who won the lottery.
He lasted six months in Wales.
All his mates started pestering him,
and he went, fuck this,
I can't be asked for a loan at the pub anymore.
So he bought a chalet got a massive mortgage
and then he likes comedy
so he just gets
three comics over
every winter
or did do
and he sort of
hands it over
so the three that go
there'll be one
from the last trip
and then the next one
is handed over
it's really quite nice
Altitude's different
because it's
famous comedians
and I was there
with Bill Burr and Sean Locke.
And just by chance, I think I've talked about it on pod before.
Bill, sorry.
That was a fucking good Bill.
I was going to add it.
Bill Bailey and Sean Locke.
And we got the transit from Munich airport to Austria,
which took a few hours.
So I'd met them.
And there was just one point when I'd been skiing on my own.
I'd gone out skiing on my own because I can't remember who my mate was in altitude.
And they weren't as good or they were with their missus who couldn't ski.
So I just went for a ski off on my own.
And I'd stopped at a little cafe halfway down the mountain.
I was just having some chips.
And Sean Locke and Bill Bailey sort of just trudging because they'd gone skiing together.
And they're like, All right, Dan.
And there are, we've talked about this,
these moments where you go,
comedy has put me in some of the most mental situations ever.
But when you're eating fucking French fries on your tod
on the side of an Austrian mountain
and Bill Bailey and Sean Locke just come in,
clumping in on the ski boots.
All right, Dan, you're like, this is just mental.
Yeah.
And it's beautiful.
But I'm really, I don't know if,
I don't know who you're going out with.
Has it been announced?
They've started to announce some of the comics that are going.
I think Sloss is going.
I think Kai is going.
Andrew Maxwell, Marcus Brigstocke.
Yes, they're boys, isn't it?
Yeah.
I am going this week
I'm sure I told you
this off pod
but not on pod
on Tuesday this week
I'm going indoor
skydiving
quite excited about that
is that in one of those
tube things
that blows you up
so you're like
8 feet off the ground
80
80
up to 80 feet
alright
yeah
so a huge tube
when you told me about it,
I sounded so thick
because I was like,
that's a big building,
isn't it?
That you can jump off a ledge
and then have a parachute,
but it's actually
like a wind turbine thing.
Essentially, yeah.
You just go,
wah.
I cannot do heights at all.
Me neither.
I worked on,
I worked with my mum's
ex-partner on like,
I had to go up some scaffolding and it was windy
and it was so rickety.
I was like, I can't get down from this.
I can't get down from this scaffolding.
And he's like, what do you mean?
It's like, I cannot fucking like, my brain had gone.
I've frozen.
And he's like, well, we're going to-
A bit like that mountain that time.
A bit like that.
It's also up high.
And I was like, I can't, I can't move backwards
because this is rattling.
Fuck.
And he goes, what are you going to do?
I'm going to climb up the roof
and go through the skylight, right?
So I just climbed up the roof.
You went higher?
Somehow.
Because it was like, it felt like I was in control.
Other than backing off of this wobbly scaffolding,
I went higher.
And like, basically the skylight was open
and I fell through this dude's room
and he's in there
in his pants
and I just kind of
like had to fall
into his room
and just go
mate like
I'm really sorry
Freda Heights
and that's how
you got into Peggy
that's how I got into Peggy
that's how I felt
bullied then wonderful
then awkward
what did the fella say
he's just really calm
about it
he's just like
oh yeah fair enough
I had to explain
you're not the first.
You're not the first, lads.
You won't be the last.
Go ahead.
Because I thought, I can't just, I've got to fill this in.
Because if this were me, with someone falling in the room,
I'd have to know every fucking thing that led up to this happening.
So I said, here's what happened, mate.
I've offered to help my mum's boyfriend.
I'm not a labourer.
I haven't got a clue what I'm doing.
I just fancied 80 quid.
I've gone up there. I've misjudged my fear at heights. I've realised I can my mum's boyfriend. I'm not a labourer. I haven't got a clue what I'm doing. I just fancied 80 quid. I've gone up there.
I've misjudged my fear at heights.
I've realised I can't go back down.
So I thought the only way I could.
And he's sitting there in his pants going,
all right.
And he went,
you could have been a model.
And then he fucked me up the arse.
Imagine if he was gay
and he tried that chattel flying off you.
Did they fuck him in?
I mean,
to be honest.
At that point. that gay guy sounds
really like someone
like yeah
lad
he's got a bit of
leeway at that point
though surely
if I've just fallen
into his bedroom
do you know what I mean
there's a fella
see I always wonder
how I'd react
if someone was just
in me house
like that
but
because my instinct
if I woke up
and someone had just
fell through me before whatever I was watching it my instinct if i woke up and someone just fell through me
before whatever i was watching it my instinct would be to grab my baseball bat on my axe and
scream at them to get me out my house you'd either hit them or fuck off wouldn't you yeah yeah right
but like i remember years ago when i lived with my dad me and my dad were in the living room and
my dad always has his back his patio door open he's just one of those guys heating on full blast
door open so the heating is just those guys heating on full blast door open
so the heating
is just a waste of money
and we just hear
the noise in the back garden
and there was just a lad
who just jumped over the fence
and me dad went
what the fuck do you want mate
and he went
I'm being chased by some lads
and I've just jumped over your fence
I'm really sorry
so I grabbed the biggest knife
in the kitchen
and just stood behind me dad
with a knife
and then the fella went
lad I just want to walk through your house and i just followed him through the house with the knife and
he just fucked off what age were you i was six 17 18 wow at that point though at that point are you
not you know who caught you lad are you not worried about the lad being chased like he's
gonna get battered have you not have
you ever been battered by a group of lads uh yeah yeah and did that not psychologically like
fuck you up for ages because it did me yeah i got i got punched in preston we got chased into a
sport shop the manager of the sport shop shouted at them and and basically did the adams house
version of of that he let us go through the stock room
and out into the back lane.
Yeah.
He didn't follow me with a knife.
Fucking watch out for the shin pads.
But yeah, I didn't go back.
Why don't you just put a different jacket on
and just walk past the lad chasing you?
I'm like, all right, mate.
It's not Tom and Jerry's.
I tried to do that once.
Because I'd have stolen a jacket.
Then I'm getting twatted in a stolen jacket.
I tried to do that at club when i was a student in liverpool uh i i fucking we were going in the
club and and i said how much is it to the bouncer and this is a night that all the students we'd all
been excited about everyone was going and and i said how much is it and it goes oh 12 pounds if
you're from down south most and i was just like well like, well, and I used one of my dad's,
like my dad's an old school comic.
So I used one of my dad's stock lines on him.
And I said, well, I can't take the piss out of you, can I?
He goes, why not?
I said, because nature beat me to it, right?
Which is just this heckle foot down line from the 70s
that I pulled out in the 90s, right?
But the dude's mates, the other bouncers fucking lost it
and started pissing themselves, right?
And I was just like, oh, win, win, win.
No, but you're not fucking coming to me.
All right, you're not.
And like three of my mates came away with me
and there was about 30 of us and we planned this all.
And they were fucking upset with me.
They were like, all right, I'll tell you what we'll do.
You give me your glasses, I'll wear your jacket,
I'll fuck my hair up, we'll go straight'll tell you what we'll do. You give me your glasses. I'll wear your jacket. I'll fuck my hair up.
We'll go straight past the guy and we'll go straight in.
And it worked.
Like, it worked.
I went in and the glasses and the hair was all fucked up.
And then my mate's jacket.
And we were like, oh, isn't this incredible?
And at a certain point, my vanity got the better of me.
And I was like, fuck wearing these glasses.
I want to get my quiff back.
I want to, you know.
So I did all of that.
Came out within 30 seconds of re-quiffing myself i came
back out into the room and i remember putting my drink down turning around and there's five
bouncers around me and it was a 70s theme night and they had these go-go dancers who were like
70s themes it's called love bug or something like that it was in town and i'd been eyeing this
dancer for like weeks and we'd had this sort of like rapport and she put me on the guest list and stuff
and I was cracking my way into it
and then these bouncers grabbed me.
Now, because I'd been beaten up when I was 11 by four lads,
I had an over-exaggerated response to physical threat.
It just got stuck in my head.
These bouncers grabbed me
and they were taking me to this alley
and I just went, fuck that.
And I had superhuman strength out of nowhere
and I grabbed onto this railing, right, with both hands and they're pulling me so I'm went, fuck that. And I had superhuman strength out of nowhere. And I grabbed onto this railing, right, with both hands.
And they're pulling me, so I'm horizontal, okay?
And fucking I am not letting go of this railing
because I'm like, that's death.
They're going to kill me.
That is fucking death right there.
And I was hanging on.
And I leaned up like that.
And the go-go dancer's looking at me like, what the fuck?
And I don't know why, I went, help me.
I don't know what she could have done.
I'm going with her pom-poms
and started fucking them up.
But eventually,
they like started working on my fingers.
They worked out.
They worked on my fingers.
Got me to the alley
and I saw the alley
and I was like,
they worked out.
Lads,
I'm sorry.
He's using his fingers.
Are you sure it's not madness,
Brian?
We fucked them fingers. He's fucked his fingers. Are you sure it's not madness, Brian? We fucked them fingers.
He's fucked, lads.
Yeah, and they got me.
He's not on without his fingers, this cunt.
He's gripping.
He's gripping that pearl.
Hang on.
He's holding the rail.
I thought he could levitate.
It took so long.
I literally thought, I'm dead.
I'm going to die.
I'm going to die.
And they got me in this alley.
And I don't know what happened,
but as soon as I got my feet,
I ran all the way from the centre of town to Kensington,
which is where I lived.
And I didn't stop once.
I sprinted all the way back to Kensington.
And suddenly it was like half 10 and I was home alone.
But that was the thing.
I had this, because I got beaten up when I was 11,
I had this real unbelievable sort of nervous reaction any time I thought I was going to get the shit kicked out of me.
It was really embarrassing.
That's why I started boxing.
I didn't go back to Preston Town Centre for about two or three years.
It's horrifying, isn't it?
It was irrational because there's just some young kids
just going around lamping lads.
It wasn't even a hard punch, but...
It becomes the place, then.
I was a soft kid,
and these were from the rougher bit of Preston.
Yeah.
And I just...
It's not the physical beating or anything.
It's the fact...
It's real fear.
It's probably the first time in your life
when you're like,
oh, my God, I'm really scared.
And that had a knock-on effect for a while as well.
Yeah, because till you've been hit, you don't really... It's a mystery, isn't it? And then you get hit, and you're like, oh my God, I'm really scared. And that had a knock-on effect for a while as well. Yeah, because till you've been hit,
you don't really,
it's a mystery,
isn't it?
And then you get hit
and you're like,
oh shit,
this can happen.
You lived in Kensington
and Liverpool?
Yeah.
I went to uni in Liverpool.
Yeah,
I went to uni in Liverpool.
I didn't know that.
Kenny, mate?
I've never known that.
Like the rough end of Kenny.
You and Kenny.
Adam thought you ran
all the way back
to South Kensington
to the museums.
You're the only person I know
Who can do an actual Scouse accent
Thank you very much
What
What
What
Can you say
In a Scouse accent
What
Easy
He can't do it
Bad Dean Coughlin taught me Gotta go down easy yeah he can't do it yeah what bad bad
no Dean Coughlin taught me
gotta go down
word
word
what's a fucking frog from the Budweiser
I've heard it in 2001
word
yeah I remember
when you did it with Phil Berto
the first time
it fucking finished me
that's gone back a life
that's going back a long time
nine years
like yeah
before I did Troy Hawke I did
another character
called Phil Berto
which you're really
proud of and want to
talk about loads I
can tell from your
general body language
from the international
circuit
that's when I first
worked with you
Nottingham Jonglers
so Phil Berto was
your first character
wasn't it
your first comedy
character
why don't you like
why don't you like it
because it's quite
clear from your body
language and your
face
you don't like it so it's kind of like if you think back to your sets from 10 12 years ago
that you've evolved past right do you do you you went sometimes right what you do you win sometimes
yeah a little bit your old material and your old sense yeah it's almost like that it's like it is
like that it's like what was i trying to do what was what was the point of it and it wasn't until like nick doody one night and he said this to me because he decided he liked me and i was so
grateful he did he's like and i just ripped the gig and he sort of said to me like why are you
doing it and i was like oh well it works he goes yeah but why are you doing it and then i had to
sort of go yeah why the fuck am i doing it do you know what i mean and it was actually one of those
things where he took a risk
and he said something that could offend or upset me,
but it ended up like making me go,
oh shit, yeah, good point.
You know what I mean?
Like constructive criticism.
Yeah, Nick Doody's a phenomenal comic, isn't he?
He's amazing, yeah.
He's one of those, I wouldn't say purists,
but he's one of those guys that
if he gives you a bit of a critique,
if he's not been a knobhead,
he's good enough that you can go,
Oh,
I keep it with some dickhead saying it.
You'd be like,
what the fuck are you on about?
But Nick dude,
he's good enough that maybe you'd have a little think how,
how long after that?
Cause it's not like you can be like,
yeah,
why am I doing it?
I'll do another.
Did it take a lot of transition?
So I did this really weird thing for about a year and I swear it lost me
work where I would transition from Phil Berto to troy hawk right uh mid set so the start the set is
filberto right and at the end it's troy i've got a friend of mine i would like to bring up
pretty much pretty much hello right yeah but i was doing this at like fucking junglers gigs and
stuff like like on before willie robo and stuff like that i was doing this at like fucking junglers gigs and stuff like like on before willie robo and
stuff like that i was doing this odd thing i ain't quite worked out where i was trying to do both
characters at the same time i think i had like a wilco's jacket on i was all over the shop it was
you know but it was that sense where you think i've got to fucking change this this isn't working
for me i can't just sit on this now and have it that's a nice thing about comedy is you get to always potentially evolve as long as you ask yourself the hard questions
i always i love working with you because i like whining you up yeah i like whining anyone up
that's how i enjoy a green room yeah and i find it particularly easy yeah so just get under your
i'm easy i am easy yeah so like at times i've gone to milo do you think you'll ever like try
stand-up like actual Like give it a go?
Yeah, but you know when he fucking did it to me,
he did it to me just before the lockdown,
like where, no, just after the November lockdown
when my head was up its ass.
He was in the middle and I had to follow him.
Fuck him.
Yeah.
Oh, I remember.
He was trying to fucking so close me before I went on.
Yeah, and I was just like,
what do you mean I'm not a real comedian?
All my imposter syndrome went, oh yeah, I'll have like what do you mean I'm not a real comedian or my imposter syndrome went oh
yeah do you think doing a character makes the the the rough gigs harder does that that that sort of
like veil of this isn't really me make it hot make it easier to be like oh it's fine they don't like
it but it's not me or is it actually more difficult to have a weird one do you mean harder in terms
of how i feel about it or process it you know you know those gigs where for whatever reason it's not
gone how you want i mean we have all done enough gigs where yeah yeah mainly it goes well but there
are those ones you're like what the fuck dude if we're doing bad gig stories right which we
love to do okay Okay. So 2004,
I just started,
I didn't have a clue what I was doing.
I wasn't even doing characters or anything.
And,
and I was doing this gig and,
uh,
it was,
I was comparing and I shouldn't have been there.
I just started doing comedy and I had an agent too quick and they just threw me in at the deep end.
So it's doing this gig 2004 and the first section hadn't gone well,
right?
They didn't like me and i was cocky and young and
trying to compensate my nerves with overconfidence and it just came across horrible i got a message
off my mate from the world going mate ken bigley's just been released ken bigley's just and i'm like
ringing back and like it's ken bigley just been released because it was when he was held do you
remember like like back in the day. And I was like, oh,
like,
are you,
why should I not go ahead with this stuff?
No,
no, it's fine.
No,
I tell you what,
I can read nonverbal content.
it's looking at me
because of something we've said previous.
All right,
so this is 2004.
He's gone.
My mate's gone.
Right.
My mate's gone.
Ken Bigley's been released.
So I've gone,
amazing.
Because obviously it was in all the news at the time,
right?
In all the news at the time.
I said, are you sure?
He's just been released.
Oh, he was sure.
Like, oh yeah, 100%.
So I can say it on stage.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's like, brilliant.
All right, cool.
So I've got a way to try and steal this goodwill, right?
To try and bolster my shit set that I've already found.
I'm like, all right, if I can bring a bit of goodwill in it,
maybe I can sort of get a bit of energy going and not go home feeling like a total fucking failure so i've gone down and
announced it to this like room full of people right and it's 2004 and it's in a basement so
there's no phone coverage or anything where is it in london so it's like a uh it was on in soho
it's just one of the little downstairs gigs so i've announced it right and and that section's gone all right and i've come back up i've got 15 missed calls off my mate and he's like mate mate
it was his brother he saw it was his brother i've seen his brother on tv it's not him
so i've gone out and i'm fucking and then in the interval, right? I've found out this as people are around me on their phones,
finding out that what I've just said is where I've got it from.
And then I've had to go back in.
As they're all finding out in the interval,
they all come back for the beginning of the third section.
And then the manager comes and tells me, Nick, he's held up.
So you're going to have to do a little bit longer until he, and I said, said well can you find out when it's going to be five minutes away so that i know
i've got five minutes again and he goes no no no just go i'm too new at that point you put more
effort in to find an out for sure when the headliner was going to arrive than you did
whether ken bigley had actually been released thousand percent hundred thousand percent right
i had to go on stage being released okay
take your wave for that no worries where's nick wilsey are you sure i need confirmation
i need to triple source it
i had to do 10 minutes to a crowd of people who knew that i'd for whatever reason falsely
announced ken bigley's release like like and i
didn't reference it because i didn't know what the fuck it was there was just awkward crowd work
it was the most hideous and i think i i think i turned down the money for the gig and everything
like that oh you know you've got a stink where you're like i couldn't possibly take that oh
dude like it's not happened often but those those gigs where you just fuck up so badly
beyond nightmare levels their character form because you can't go any lower you can't have
a situation that's worse than that so what can a gig throw at you after you've had something like
that is this part of why you became a character comedian this night the ken bigley night no i
think what was weird what was really weird is like i i don't
know how it started i think i i felt like i was actually being more authentic as a character than
i was when i was just trying to do stand up as me do you know what i mean it just yeah i do because
fit and because when we started out which a few years before adam yeah character comics were dying
out yeah they weren't remember dominic frisbee did Morris the Morris Dancer?
Yeah, yeah.
And, let me just cringe.
And Morris the Morris Dancer.
And I'll tell you what he did.
He did some Morris dancing.
It was a good set.
Good set.
He did the upper class rapper as well.
And he transitioned in a set as well.
Right, yeah.
Two characters at the
same time probably even missed this but he's one he's one that went the other way and just went
like what am i doing i'm just gonna do stand-up and talk because it was easier i always think
with the characters like that's i'm fascinated by when you die as a comic it's rough like you've
just explained we've all had weird ones yeah but is this sort of like is it easy
that you're like i'm just a bloke trying or when you die as a character is it more difficult because
you're like it's way more to do the voice okay listen i've got to do a lot of time because
nothing i'm junglers has a policy it's way more difficult um because like you think about it right
i'm doing a zoom gig um yeah well sorry
i will let you finish that answer in a minute but isn't it also a bit easier because you can
just be like me the 18 yeah well that's if it did work that way great i could be strutting around
everywhere like yeah but but there was this one zoom gig i did i did a sort of number of zoom
gigs i remember a good zoom gig it make me feel fucking marvellous.
But if I've done a bad Zoom gig, right,
there were a couple,
it's really super tough.
Then suddenly I'm a bloke
who's drawn a fucking moustache on his face, right?
And I'm wearing a silk smoking jacket
in my shed.
And this is my fucking job.
Do you know what I mean?
The reality of all of those things
kicks in so hard when you've
got three screens of like old people who've booked you for a private fucking 70th birthday party and
you're just staring at you like that when you're washing off your your mustache oh my god well
daddy oh no the walk of shame 12 yards back to the fucking house hey stink of that gig following me but
troy doesn't die in the room though fucking hell well do you know you absolutely smash when troy's
tuned in i i like i've i've had a couple that have gone weird and when it's gone weird it's when
i've been on a good run and i've i've been like killing and then i'm on first
somewhere and i bring that closing energy on first then it can really like it i can give myself a
mountain to climb at that point if you've never seen milo i've never seen anyone scott bennett's
the same he because he's just a bit like he wants to know everything but i've never seen anyone take more like notes and care and attention in the room
with what the compere's saying with the interactions with the first comedian on
and often i'm like sometimes i think that's all smoke and mirrors if a comic does it yeah but
it's so much of what you do and you do it so well have you stopped doing that yeah i stopped i only
did that with filberto because i didn't have a very good act oh I saw you do I've seen you do that with Troy no that's
that's notes that's like material all right so I'm not as focused on like what the crowd is now
I could I could shut up to a gig late now but when I was doing Filberto because my act was crap
what I'd have to do is I'd try and write a rap about what was happening in the room so I try
and take a note of everything so again that's a smoke and mirrors thing,
but it smashes though.
Yeah.
But it was,
it's one of those things where like,
I,
it's a trick.
Do you know what I mean?
And I know we've got tricks,
but I'm doing a rhyming scheme based on a couple of things that have happened in the room.
I'm referencing things that have happened in the room and it seems a lot clever,
clever than it,
it seemed a lot clever than it was.
And yeah,
it's smashed, but what's but what's the end goal?
You want to have more.
Eventually you get bored of it, don't you?
You want to keep coming out of stuff.
It's a bit like the comparing thing
where you can be a brilliant compare
and then you feel the limitation of it.
You're like, yeah, but I want to be the best headliner.
You can't.
I think the better you get,
the less shelf time your material has.
I think you get bored of it quicker.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You really want to keep moving.
That's where Adam's at.
When you're at the top of your game
and you're turning over stuff.
Yeah, definitely.
Do you think, genuine question,
you'll ever do non-character comedy on stage?
Non-character stand-up?
Yeah, do you think you'll ever be Milo McCabe?
I don't think so.
I don't know if there'd be enough that's...
I know it sounds weird, doesn't it? I don know if like there'd be enough that's i know it sounds
weird doesn't it i don't know if there'd be enough that what what would i talk about it's like i
don't i don't laugh at sort of i don't watch regular stand-up do you know yeah like it's i
it would be me trying to fit in a mold if if i were ever to do me i don't think it would be
like straightforward observational stand-up it would be someone else it'd be a mix of characters or or something like that i don't know yeah like
definitely and it's it's weird because obviously my dad was a traditional old school what do we
know your dad's name men's club comic no probably not mike mccabe so he was on like new faces and
um fame game and all those where did you grow up where was where did you live at the
time when he sorry all right sorry so he was doing all this he was doing all the london clubs i know
he was he was going all over the country like how much was he earning i love this stuff same
fucking money jeez 250 if not slightly more so he'd be on 300 to 400 a gig he'd be 45 minutes
and this is and we're talking 70s
80s
yeah
yeah
Phil Walker's dad is Roy Walker
yeah
and some of my favourite stories
from Phil
I ask about
his dad
yeah
and like
I love the stories
of them all getting
in a dressing room
on one of the big gigs
where there's a few of them
and they have to go
right
who's doing what
who's doing what because they've all got
the same stuff there's like 120 jokes and they need to divvy them up yeah like almost like picking
a teams at school like that you get first pick so i've had a little bit of that lately you know
just because like for for most of the gigs since i've come back, I've had to close. Like, almost every gig I've done since the return of COVID,
I've been closing.
And there's so...
I feel like you've got to reference COVID a little bit.
Otherwise, you just look a little bit senile.
And I don't want to go on and do a vaccine joke
if you've done a vaccine joke.
So it's not the same, are you doing that joke?
It's just, have you referenced vaccines yet? Well, then I won won't mention that but i'll mention something else or do you know i mean
i'm i'm watching the show more at the minute because i'm like i've got to do a topical thing
and we called it didn't we we called it before we started gigging again going there will be
repetition and part of you we discussed on here just doesn't want to talk about it hate it when
we touch hands accidentally uh part of you doesn't want to talk about it hate it when we touch hands accidentally part of you doesn't want to talk about it
but like you say
if you don't make any reference to it
you do seem like a bit irrelevant
it's not that it's irrelevant
because I think people are enjoying
talking about other stuff
but yeah it's like you're not concentrating
or something
Bo Burnham did that really well
because like he doesn't mention
any of the buzzwords does he but he just because like, he doesn't mention any of the buzzwords,
does he?
But he just embodies
the fucking feelings.
Doesn't mention the word
COVID or coronavirus once
in the whole hour and a half.
He's so clever.
He so gets,
he so gets across
all those feelings
that everybody felt
at certain points.
It's really,
really clever and amazing.
And you do find yourself
watching it,
like wondering
how much of this
is 100% just absolutely genuine stuff that he's done in the moment? How much is stage managed? really clever and amazing. And you do find yourself watching it, like wondering how much of this is a hundred percent,
just absolutely genuine stuff that he's done in the moment.
How much has stage managed?
And you can't tell.
No.
It's the brilliant part about it.
Such.
And they don't mention coronavirus or COVID in Hamilton either.
So watch both.
Do you like Hamilton?
I was,
I was.
I just made Adam hate me a little bit.
I felt,
I felt him go.
Hamilton. Hamilton for me, right. i didn't get through the whole thing so hamilton the first half i was like this is really clever this is really artful and i know it's going to be the same for the next hour
so i can't be asked i've seen what this is all right great i'm i'm you know did you not want
to know the end of the story couldn't give a fuck okay the rhyme scheme
was nice the dude from manhunter mindhunter alexander hamilton shag princess diana did it
to death to death cool i should have stuck it's also on the crown so it's weird episode of the
crown that yeah alexander hamilton fucking diana alexander hamilton fucked her in Paris I'm not
I'm not really
a musicals guy I'm more like a
what have I done
I was so fucking
ridiculous I'm going to move this forward
it's our podcast and he did the professional
thing alright guys
I'm not really a musical guy
nah I like psychological thrillers that make you feel uncomfortable for an hour and a half that's my jam All right, guys. All right, guys. I'm not really a musical guy. Nah.
I like psychological thrillers that make you feel uncomfortable
for an hour and a half.
That's my jam.
Fucking love that.
Someone who really make you feel unsettled.
Really?
Yeah.
Do you ever have an eating
and then watch something?
Like a drug
and then watch something?
Or a smoke?
Yes.
Yeah, I got really stoned
and watched Suspiria
for the first time
the other day.
This guy.
What?
Just very impressed with Carl sometimes.
It's like, it's just, and then we ruin it by dissecting it.
Instead of just letting it be a very smooth progression
and show that he's really getting on top of production
and knows where content needs to flow to.
Me and Adam are like, wow, that's good.
We ruin it by going, bloody hell, that was quality.
You saw it and you progressed the content.
You do like a drug or two, don't you?
But you've developed into that late in life.
Very much so.
Very much so.
A bit like Paul Smith.
Because I only had my first pill when I was 38.
On holiday with Kai Humphries, 45.
Fuck off, you're 45.
Yeah mate.
Bastard.
He looks 12 years
younger than me.
Fucking hell lad.
Amazing.
Yeah,
so,
yeah,
I had my first pill
on holiday
in Benidorm
with Kai Humphries
and Daniel Sloss
and all that.
A lot of people
do it in Ibiza
but you thought,
fuck it,
Benidorm.
Old school.
Get pilled up
with a load of
retirees.
Get pilled up,
watch a racist comedian,
fucking,
absolutely. And we did, we did that that we watched a guy called albion
no we watched like yeah we it was incredible and and i'd never done it in my whole life and i came
up after eight minutes and kai was like no i'm it i was like all right and then and then i actually
experienced it and and it was so good and I remember thinking thank fuck I didn't do this
in my late teens because I never would have stopped I feel like it was a perfect time and
then yeah sort of did a little bit that still have never done coke um why because I feel like
I'd like it too much can I tell that story about you no yeah yeah yeah okay one way yeah yeah all right
so um have you already told it haven't we i don't think so okay so we're all out uh brighton a load
of us have got gigs in brighton wherever rose there like sloss there guys there cullen's that
we all fucking meet up in brighton post gig at half 11 me sloss Sloss, Kai, and Mark Nelson. You have told this story.
Yeah, I know.
Yeah, go on.
I bet you don't know the whole thing.
We've had the abridged version from Adam.
All right, all right.
So basically,
I don't do coke
and I don't know much about coke politics or whatever.
And neither do I.
So he doesn't either.
So the bag's gone round
and it's come to Adam, right?
And whatever he's done,
he's put a little bit on his hand or whatever.
And then he's turned around and the bar guys come like feet away.
Now, bear in mind, they've been doing it in this car.
They're totally safe.
No one's going to look at him.
He's fine.
They've been doing it all night, right?
But he's panicked and he's going, ugh.
And he's put it through his hair, right?
Is this the first thing he thinks?
First thing he thinks, he's put it through his hair.
Bit of talcum powder there. How can I make my hands look natural? Like that. is this the first thing he thinks? First thing he thinks, he's played through his hair.
Bit of talcum powder there.
How can I make my hands look natural?
Like that.
Just smooth it through his hair.
And look, I don't know about... How the fuck have you not told this?
I don't know about coke,
but everyone fucking saw him do it and was horrified.
Everyone was like, what did he just...
Even the doorman was like,
you fucking wasted that bit.
Jesus Christ. because you just put
15 pounds in your quiff
exactly
exactly
exactly
lovely
you've got great volume
there Adam
what's that
the reason I haven't
told this story
is because I knew
Milo was coming on
at some point
and he would want to tell it
can I tell the other
half of it
I think this is the bit
that I might have told
yeah
yeah
so we end up it's
one of those where it's like 4 4 a.m in brighton everyone's like off their tits and we go to the
there's this gay bar on the beach was the only like club open and like we end up it's towards
the end of the night we're all sort of sat around uh you know it's kind of like last orders ish
i would just turn around there's kind of this empty dance-ish. I just turn around, there's this empty dance floor upstairs,
and Adam's just sort of standing there, dead-eyed me,
like just straight away.
And I'm like, this is weird.
And I look down, and he's got his cock out, right?
Dead-eyed me.
As in, what are you going to do about it, like dead quiet,
threatening Scouse.
Yeah, yeah, The worst guy.
It's like a dog marking its territory.
He was having a piss directly on the dance floor.
The reason nobody saw him,
the reason nobody saw him is because he was so relaxed about it.
There was nothing in his body language that raised the alarm.
It wasn't like I was over my shoulder.
Like, he was coming, I was just...
Like, he just literally, casual,
as though it with the most natural
thing in the world just pisses straight down the dance floor and then just fold himself and got on
with his day like fucking nothing had happened and maybe they're like how much stuff could you
get away with if you just make out if your body language is like, this, this is, full piss,
directly on the dance floor.
With cocaine in your fringe,
and your cock out on the dance floor.
That girl with the five lines in her.
Yeah.
And a cocaine fringe,
piss on the floor.
I had a bit of a mad one.
I think this is what You were getting at
I had
Because me and Paul
Have done DMT
Like
Just before
Just to tie off that story
Sorry
That was the night before
Liverpool played
In the 2018
Champions League final
Yes
I had no sleep
Went straight to the
Training station
And went straight home
To watch the match
Yeah
Stayed up
Do not remember
The second half
Yeah
Pissy kicks I didn't piss on me kicks I pissed on the dance. Yeah. Stayed up. Do not remember the second half. Yeah.
Pissy kicks.
I didn't piss on me kicks.
I pissed on the dance floor. No, you pissed on the dance floor.
No, it was flashback.
I think he was singing
Liverpool songs
quite loudly by the way
as well
if I remember rightly.
No, that was great though.
I just remember
sitting on the beach
like with you
Tom Horton
just hammered
just completely fucking
but still awake
drunk
at about
half seven in the morning
and I knew
that my train home
was at like ten to eight
to make it back in time
for the match
and have a drink
with my mates and that
and I remember going to Tom Horton
what time is it lad
and he went to half seven
and I'm like
fucking hell half seven
and just ran back to my hotel
went into my room
grabbed my bag
off the bed nothing unpacked out of it and just ran back to my hotel, went into my room, grabbed my bag off the bed,
nothing unpacked out of it,
and just got straight,
luckily the Geordie's in his right next to Brighton train station,
train to London,
London to Liverpool.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah,
I know it's fun.
I remember.
DMT.
Yes.
So I got Paul into it.
Like that was,
he's told the story already,
but it was so.
Oh,
you're the one.
I'm the one.
We've been talking about it. And like, I basically talked to people and sort of said, Like that was, he's told the story already, but it was so. Oh, you're the one. I'm the one. Paul Smith.
We've been talking about it.
And like, I basically talked to people and sort of said, look, I'm going to get some.
If you want to do it, like I'm going to have some, just let me know.
And then I had some and everyone who expressed interest kind of shit their pants a little bit.
That's fair enough because it's quite a big thing to do.
And I forgot I'd had it in my bag and I got in the dressing room and I saw paul and i was like oh you wanted to try this didn't you and he was like yeah and i was like when do
you want to do it and he goes tonight and i went yeah and that was that so yeah we went back to his
and he's told the story i think hasn't he and it's 100 as he told it it was the oddest thing it was
great but he's got more into it now
and he hooked me up with this guy
who sells DMT vape pens.
Not the shaman.
No, not the shaman.
This is another dude.
DMT vape pens.
So basically DMT...
Welcome to the future.
If you want to sort of do the crystals,
it's quite intense,
but it's a bit rough.
You have to kind of make a homemade bong.
The vape pen's a lot easier. Homemade bong? Bong bong bong yeah you need to make a homemade dmt bong
bong set it off light it yeah you need to make a sacrifice of a load of innocent strangers before
you can smoke it no imagine if you set a dmt bomb off in like a marx and spencers oh cloud jesus but like yeah i so he
hooked me up with this dude who sells dmt vape pens and um i said oh yeah like when can i get
one and he said now in half an hour and i was like fully dressed as troy hawk and i had like
half an hour before i had like smoking jacket, cravat,
mustache.
I'm like,
please tell me you did the drug deal in his voice as well.
Well,
this,
this,
this,
this,
this,
this,
this,
this,
this,
this,
this,
this,
this,
this,
this,
I was like,
right.
I got half an hour,
whatever.
I can do this.
I need to go find a cash point and it's going to come by in a car.
And then that's all good.
So I got out hot water.
And as soon as I got out hot water,
this,
this,
I had this voice go,
oh, you look very smart.
And I turned around and it was Pete Price.
So I'm going out to do...
Pete Price sold you a DMTV pen.
No.
Pete Price just happened to fucking be there.
The second...
Literally, like, he was waiting for me standing at
the top of the steps by hot water oh yeah and i told her i was pete price and hello oh hello pete
all right all right lad i was like can i get a picture and he goes yeah go on then and i'm like
hugging the picture there and then like fucking i i suddenly remember like i'd prank called him
15 years ago and and and really made his life a misery
and he had no idea who I was or anything.
It was just so weird.
I literally-
Oh, because you were doing a different voice?
Yeah, I was doing a different voice.
I literally, I'd name checked him
at the set I'd just done.
I'd referenced him at the set I'd just done,
come out and there he was.
It was so fucking bizarre.
And then I got in this car with this dude
dressed as Troy,
half did the voice, half didn't. Went and got the money, did the deal, came back and that was it was so fucking bizarre and then i got in this car with this dude dressed as troy half did the voice half didn't went got the money did the deal came back and and that was it the
fucking mental i bet drug dealers love a guy in full costume getting in the car to do it
what haven't they seen it's like whatever oh yeah of course of course he's wearing a
kimono no no no no no no that was not his thought you did not get in dressed as true with a fucking
muzzy i did painted on your fucking life what did he think all right lads exactly what i expected
what did he think how many vape pens do you want why didn't he why didn't he bring it up
because he's probably fucking terrified that you were a narc
two drugs please how undercover are we going?
Let's get a guy who looks so wacky,
no one's going to think he's a fucking narc.
Can you?
That wouldn't be a bad idea, actually, would it?
Because you wouldn't think someone dressed like Troy
would be a narc.
You're going to dress as a narc to hide it.
No one would think the police officer is a police officer.
You wouldn't think.
If you were in fancy dress, you wouldn't go, oh, that guy's undercover.
Yeah, but when you're dressed as Troy,
can we put a picture in for everyone?
Can we drop a picture?
Right now.
Like, when you're dressed like that,
it's over the top, but it's not so wacky.
It couldn't be real.
Yeah, there's still like a...
Yeah, my girlfriend thought you were real
until she met you in real life.
She'd seen your videos.
It's a weird balance,
like talking to people after shows.
I kind of keep it up,
but I'm sort of...
What's that?
Red flag.
Right.
Can you just...
Right.
So for me,
I don't think I'll ever do DMT
because I'm scared of it.
I've got some now if you want.
Nope, all good. Certainly not before I go and do alexander's size you've got your pen yeah
so last section would be a bit weird so in a sentence or two can you sell dmt to me
and the people out there um i don't know right here's here's how would you sell it if you were
trying to sell it i wouldn't try and sell it that's yeah but yeah but if you were i know you
wouldn't here's how i would i would bring it okay so what happens is i would bring it up and then
you can tell when you bring it up people become interested you talk to them all right how's the
best way to describe okay here's what happened to me like so i had it the first time and it was like this wonderful feeling of uh insignificance like this this
feeling that you're absolutely tiny and you don't matter but at the same time you're also a tiny
part of everything and it it it takes the pressure off immediately of all the little silly little pointless worries.
It sort of holds up a mirror up to everything that you worry about on a daily basis in the perspective of just what the bigger picture or goal is.
And it just goes, I'm a fucking idiot.
Like, look at this stuff.
This really, you're getting worried about all this stuff and you're ignoring all of this.
you're getting worried about all this stuff and you're ignoring all of this and it's like an instant blast of that that burrows into your brain and sits there and kind of like almost gets hard
wired in so you kind of come out with a a fresh more healthy sort of mindful perspective do you
know what i mean and that lasts for a couple of weeks and then you go back to being a knobhead
again that's how i experienced it and you're worried
that you'd like cocaine too much totally different you can't honestly it's it's a weird thing like
here's the thing right if you've got a shed full of stuff locked in your head that you keep locked
that you never want to open up and pull out and examine right don't ever do dmt but if you want
to go through some sort of like potential landmines you've got lurking in there
that might fuck you up
later in life
and you want to sort of
throw yourself on them now
then DMT would be
a good thing to do.
So it's how much
you're prepared to sort of like
confront things in your own brain
that you'd normally
hide away from.
Do you have to top up then?
Like every four,
you say four weeks?
Do you microdose
or do you just do it?
No,
like when I've done it
I just sort of try and blast off
as hard as possible and I'll do it and I won't need to do it no uh you like when i've done it i just sort of try and blast off as hard as
possible and i'll do it and i won't need to do it as it sounded you sounded all the reasons for
doing it were really sensible and considered almost how do i do it i got off me fucking
tits yeah no you literally blast off because you go somewhere else you lose sight of who you are
you lose touch with your ego you lose touch everything you fly off into this other realm and it's just brilliantly
refreshing it's opened up my mind and uh uh it's it's made me i think a lot a lot happier i think
a lot less stressed and i don't do it loads and it's it's weird i did do i've only had one bad
trip in all the times i've ever done it and that was because i'd hammered it like three times that night you know i mean so you what just don't do it that often no just once every once every three
months once every six months how often are you gonna do that vape pen i've not done it i probably
won't do it for like a week or two what happens on a bad trip so um so here's what happened i'd
done it twice and you set intent it's gonna sound very hippie i don't know how open to this stuff you are but you set intentions at the beginning so you go right
what do you want out of this trip so i was like i want knowledge and i'm fucking and i took a
shitload and you deal with this thing that essentially treats you like a little child
not in a not in a sort of um a nasty way just in a whatever entity you're dealing with is so much
further ahead and advanced than you are it's like you're a little toddler it's a bit it's dismissive but not unkind to dismissive
but i'd come back for the third time and it showed me all these lovely pictures give me these lovely
trips and i was fucking back and so whatever this thing was he went right right you little knobhead
right you want knowledge dear okay and then i sort of felt myself go no no no no no no i actually
i've changed my mind and then it's like fucking too go, no, no, no, no, no, no. I actually, I've changed my mind.
And then it's like fucking too late, right?
It was dragging me through this kaleidoscope of the world ending.
So it was like three pictures of a bridge
like collapsing or a mountain going down
or a motorway caving in.
And I'd go into one and it split into three.
And the whole time it was like,
I knew it was the world ending.
And it just-
Are you sure you just went on the M6 at rush hour?
This voice was going, this is all your fault.
This is all your fault.
This is all your fault.
And then it threw me into like a toddler version
of whatever it was.
And I was being dragged around a bedroom
and then it just fucking spat me back.
Like sometimes-
Do you believe this is,
when you're talking about something else,
do you think it's something else?
You don't think it's your mind?
Dude, like there are so many different ways
of looking at it. When you're in and you're under it feels like you are interacting with something
that could not possibly be a part of your dna or consciousness however when you come back and you
rationalize it and you think about it there is a chance that um potentially you're accessing some
like part of your brain that's got collective
dna that's gone through the generations so you know there's like an access store through your
ancestors that carries through and it sort of gets bigger and bigger through the generations
and it's like maybe this is unlocking some little tiny peanut little thing in your whatever the part
of the brain is and it's just opening that up to all this like that makes me want to try it that that last description this is pure guesswork on my part like because
it's all i would assume it's all within you obviously but that's not how it feels when
you're in that moment i i i i've never never been spiritual or anything like that but when i did it
and then after the first time i did it i was like like, fuck knows, man, all bets are off now. I wonder if a deeply religious person,
wonder what they'd come out of it.
If you were a devout Muslim,
if you were a really hardcore Christian,
like what would that unlock?
If they'd come out of it going,
oh my God,
it's all bullshit.
Let's get the head of ISIS on DMT.
Do you know what?
I can put the world leaders on DMT.
You know,
mushrooms, ps know, mushrooms,
psilocybin,
all that kind of thing.
I don't know.
It just gives you a perspective.
It just fucking...
Weird G7 summit,
that,
wouldn't it?
Yeah,
it'd be amazing.
Although,
this is enough's enough.
I can't believe they're
extending the lockdown.
Look at these,
licking each other.
It's not addictive.
It's not physiologically
addictive,
but it will potentially
challenge you mentally.
Do you know what I mean?
Like,
it will make you look at
things that maybe you don't want to look at in your head,
but for a greater good of getting them sorted out.
I feel like you're describing some elements of this podcast.
Sometimes Adam and I make jokes about things in our life
that we don't really want to make jokes about,
but it's for the greater good of the patron.
We've gone from pegging to existential interdimensionality.
I feel like if I do DMT,
there's just going to be a big snake that
looks me dead in the eye and goes open your fucking mail dickhead
has paul smith does brown less has been sucking for three weeks you daft sweat
has paul managed to talk you guys into it because i know he's like
not at all no because we do this twice a week.
When am I, like that two weeks of serenity
that you described would make for some of the shittest
have a word ever.
Like, hey, we've got an email in here from fucking Terry.
And I'm like, do you know what?
In the big picture, it doesn't really matter.
Maybe you need to just step out of your side, Terry.
Just take a moment and just interdimensionality,
you know, think about that.
Yeah.
You rat.
It'd be a good special
the lads do DMT
the DMT special
order
the DMT
can I
I am
is it illegal
can I do it with you guys
is it
is it illegal
oh it's illegal
if we pretended to do it
you can record yourself
doing drugs
and just say it was fake
Yeah
Yeah you can
As long as this
Doesn't go out
Yeah yeah
Yeah
Didn't say that
Yeah
Barry Dodds to Shaman Kev
Looking forward to that one
Milo
We'd see more spirits
Than Barry Dodds would
I fucking guarantee that
Milo
What
If we did it as a patron special
Would I do it
Would you be our guide
100,000%
Oh now I'm in
Now I'm in
Because I can monetise it We because i'm monetizing as well
how about you do it and i'll just watch what are you gonna do have a fucking gin and tonic
all right sponsored by givens gin genuinely right would you try it probably yeah what would you be
afraid of you've got to you're a musician i just don't want to do it i've never
touched drugs at all so what would my like what my response to it be um you have to have some
crack first it's warmer no i'm not saying you know what i'm saying before i before i did um
dmt i'd never done any drugs apart from the odd bit of weed right okay i've hardly done any
hallucinogenic so i don't think my tolerance would be loads higher just because i was a fucking whiz kid back in the day finn you'd have to do it because you're a beatles fan
right well finn's in absolutely fine so adam's gonna have a weird one that's it
huh i had a bad trip on lsd though but you know the thing with dmt like five minutes after you've
done it you could drive a car you could do a gig like it's gone from your system completely you're
you're back even if you haven't got a license your brain produces it doesn't it when you die exactly
right yeah and some people think when you have religious visions it's just your brain being
swarmed with the natural levels of because dmt is actually in everything anywhere when you smoke it
you smoke an inhibitor a non-inhibitor or something that that basically stops the inhibitor working so
the dmt floods your brain i think it would be kind of good if Adam didn't do it as well.
Like he's got more of a career to worry about,
but also just to have someone being like,
what a fucking bunch of dickheads.
But you wouldn't want that in the room.
Cause like when you're in the room,
it's got to be really calm.
We do everything together.
Oh,
calm and peaceful.
He's my rock.
You'd have to get the right conditions.
Captain Tranquility.
Oh, he's fine, yeah.
It'd be ace.
As long as he could do that.
Oh, yeah, he's well known for it.
I think I'd be clouded knowing he was in the room, though.
I'd be going into it like a cloud of anxiety
knowing that Adam couldn't do something.
I'll tell you what, it wouldn't be boring.
Here's the way I look at it, right?
If we set it up and everything
and then if one thing happened
that got in the way of the thing
I'd be like
right that's the universe saying
fucking do not do it
do you know what I mean
as hippy as that
I don't know whether doing class A drugs
is part of patrons terms and conditions
it's not class A is it
I think so yeah
oh sorry I thought it was like a
I thought it was like a
we wouldn't be
doing it not a real one it's not like fucking calms or soothers no i thought i didn't think
it was a class a i think it is oh well i would just take a soother i could cut it and it looked
like we just fucked up soothers yeah you know we're talking about um age restrictions on an
episode do you reckon this might fuck with it a little bit at the end?
Yeah.
Should we have a break?
No, I think we should do more of this section.
Do you reckon?
I think we need to pad it out.
How long is this?
An hour and 20 minutes.
It's the longest ever.
That is the longest ever. It's the longest ever section.
Is that good?
Yeah.

Let's
Let's solve some
Problems for people.
Oh, fuck yeah.
Not here just for the ha-ha's, are we, Adam?
No.
Here to mend people's lives.
Hey, lads.
We would like you to have a word with one of our...
Are you ready?
Yeah.
Oh, I thought you...
Nice.
We would like to have a word with one of our friends.
He is 38 years old and is dating a 19-year-old.
Fucking legend.
When they got together...
Next email.
When they got together,
she was only 17.
Oh, she's only 17.
What are your views on this?
Is he a nonce
or is he doing well for himself?
He's literally twice that age that's yeah that's
a tough one when i was 30 i went out a 20 year old and she was way more mature than i was and
it was great until i met her friends and then it all went to shit right because as soon as i met
her friends i was like oh yeah i'm a fucking generation away from these people aren't i
and it kind of brought it in like what does he do when she's going out with all her mates does he go with all the 19 year olds to wherever the
fuck 19 year olds go and how does he sell that how does that work oh my god do you know what i mean
i don't think he does i think he's just fucking pork and someone young but the the reverse of
that is how does she do as a 19-year-old
at a 38-year-old's barbecue
when they're all talking about property and right move?
And she's like,
oh, how mature is this 19-year-old?
Or is, like Adam's saying,
is he just going for the young pork?
I think you need to go back two years as well
because she was 17 when he was, what?
36.
So it's 38 minus two carried the three um 36 there you go i think there's two things potentially going on right uh thing number
one he's desperately trying to hold on to his youth right and he's trying to hold on to the
kind of women that he went with when he was in his prime as a young man and that's what's going on there
in which case that's what he needs to address or he's a nonce oh actually no because he's been
shagging her for two years so that's quite must be getting serious do you know what i mean we must
have met her friends then this must have happened yeah he's either in love or he's a nonce yeah i
mean if they're really intense well he's not a nonce is he because she was 17 no no but there's but if he was a nonce then by the time she's 19 he'd have give up on it
she wouldn't be his type anymore nonce adjacent no i think you're going i think you're going
hard nonce capital n nonce she means in a sort of like it's a bit noncy half your age i don't think it's like a legal accusation i think
the 17 thing is where it goes to var in it because it's technically legal but it's still a bit
you know she can't have a fucking pint yeah yeah yeah i mean you're genuine you're dropping her
off at college in a schooner what else can't she have a cardian coke she can't have
a cardian coke no she can't have a pint she can't have dmt no one can it's illegal stop talking
about it pathetic yeah she can't have a pint and technically he could be a granddad he's probably
getting into his kinky age as well like he's probably really fine than his do you know what i mean what she's she's
still young for that right kinky age hang on that's hang on i'm in it so at 38 you're just
getting into kinky age no but like i'm 40 he's 45 if he's probably fine than his is sexual whatever
now isn't she's not all right yeah what's she's old enough to be fingered Not old enough to be bummed
I don't know
It's like he just turns out
Bumper stickers
Doesn't he
Have a word
Bumper stickers
Oh dear
Did you say bumming stickers
Or bumper stickers
I said bumming stickers
Did you
Yeah yeah yeah
For when you're really kinky
And you like branding
Lad
Get some KY
And stick a sticker on there who's brand here's the thing
though right they've been going out two years that goes another five years yeah it's legit again
isn't it he's twice that age i know but like she's 24 he's gonna be 48 yeah but no absolutely
to be fair it's a funny bit
if you're if you're a math nonce you just went oh
people at the comedy club the couple at the comedy club told it before and they were like
oh she's young and he was old she was like 22 and he was like mid to late 30s but i did that thing of like
what do you have any nicknames does anyone have any nicknames yeah and my bit was about like
it's cutesy nicknames that you don't want to say in front of your mates and this girl was so chuffed
with their relationship we have a nickname i called him daddy and the whole club just went
my name in sam's phone is Big Juicy
true
I don't
no no
it's true
I
honestly
she wrote it on his birthday card
oh my
good god
like I've been trying to get Laura
to call me the White Hammer
but she never
bites
yeah
I love it when you call me Big Juicy.
I'm Big Juicy.
She's a little saucy.
Shut up.
You fucking...
Are you kidding?
No.
He's not.
Big Juicy.
Big Juicy.
She's a little saucy.
Oh, that's it now.
I'm sick of calling you Adam.
Big Juice.
No, Big Juicy.
Big Ju... Oh, sorry. where did that come from so on air
it's so convoluted it sounds like bollocks but it isn't on new year's eve i had a drink in her mom
and dad's house with their in a moment dad and his mom gave us she went oh we won't drink that
why don't you have some of that and it was this
Jack Daniels
with apple juice
mixture sort of thing
pre-mixed in a bottle
so not the
apple flavoured
Jack Daniels
which is still 40%
something like 20%
or 15%
and it's Jack Daniels
with apple juice
and stuff
and I had a sip of it
and I went
and Sam had just
taken a sip of his wine
and I went
it's juicy that
it's the second time I've met a parent had just taken a sip of his wine. And I went, it's juicy, that.
It's the second time I've met a parent.
I've had a swig out of the bottle.
I went, it's fucking juicy, that.
And Sam nearly choked to death on his wine.
And his mum laughed as well.
And then she just started calling me Big Juicy.
Big Juicy.
Right.
Good.
That story makes it sound a lot less phallic, doesn't it?
Yeah.
Carl thought it was something to do with jizz.
Yeah, I just thought it was your dick.
Dicks.
With the 19 and the 38-year-old though,
at a certain point, when she's like 30 and he's whatever the fuck, he'd be there in like 49, 60.
Yeah, but that's fine.
By then, no one gives a shit.
What if we're all going nonce, nonce, nonce,
but actually they're in love
And it lasts the course
And they go and have this
Wonderful life together
I'm totally not going
Nons nons nons
I just couldn't
Do this
I could
No I could
If Laura left me
If Laura was gone
Where's she gone
I don't know
Where's she gone
She's dead
She's Shag and Finn
It's more fun when you do it
Where's Laura gone
she's dead Adam
she's dead
how did she die
don't matter
I've got the life insurance
oh
oh
in a caravan in real
bomb to death
if you bomb my wife to death
I'm gonna bomb your mum
not your sister
because she's a patriot god bless her If you bum my wife to death, I'm going to bum your mum. Not your sister,
because she's a patriot.
God bless her.
I'll see you at Shaman Kev's.
That'll be a good laugh, won't it?
Lord is dead.
Bum to death in a caravan.
I've blanked on what we were saying.
So you could never do it.
You could never go that. I'm literally so freaked out
by the last minute of podcasting
that I no longer care about the 20-year-old that I couldn't bang.
I think it'd take me a while to love again
because, you know, Finn bummed my wife to death.
Could you still come in and work with Finn?
Be like, would you, dad?
I've got 4,000 patrons.
No, we'd have the Indian by then.
A man's got to have something to live for.
I could totally do this, by the get i i couldn't get in a relationship
with a 19 year old or like i couldn't go near a 17 year old just couldn't but 19 20 21 if i was 38
i would yeah i'd be fine with that just you don't know that though. Your mind changes. Yeah. If you went out with a girl
half your age.
All right,
well then nine,
10,
11 right now.
Fine.
I'm just going to draw a line
at 12.
I say any lower than 12.
I think it is going to look weird
at hot water.
Yeah.
No,
I could,
I think I could.
Yeah.
I just had to.
Could you have done it at 30?
At 30? Oh, you did, didn't you? At 30 with a 20-year-old.
Could you have?
20-year-old, yeah.
30 is a weird age.
And I remember being single at 30
because you can socially acceptably date 20-year-olds
where some of your female friends will be like,
what?
But also you can date 40.
That's the best one you've done.
But you can date like women in the late 30s
I had a bit about it
like the difference
and
yeah it's a weird little
phase
as soon as you're at 40
then you really are
going to have people going
mate we're not inviting you
to a dinner party
because it looks like
you've brought your sex
victim to a fucking
can I ask you a slightly
sideways question
but you'll see why I'm asking it
in a sec
could you
let's say when you were 30
Laura's not gone
she's not here yet
not met
not met
Finn's not even met
nevermind
her bum hole's intact
doesn't mean anywhere near
Finn's kind of on
right
she's been listening
to the episodes
she loved the
Sean Walsh episode
I've never heard her laugh at anything as much as she laughed at the Sean Walsh episode. I've never heard her laugh at anything
as much as she laughed at the Sean Walsh episode.
And I don't know if this is going to tickle her quite as much.
Could you date two people at once?
Like, not like we're together,
but could you be seeing two people at the same time?
Could you do that?
What, be lying about it?
No.
Look, we're not
we're not
we're not exclusive
this kind of body
needs to be shared out baby
yeah
like we're not exclusive
you can do what you want
I can do what I want
we're not official yeah
could you do that
yeah I've done it
yeah
yeah I did it
okay
so could you
at 30
have dated like
a 22 year old
and a 38 year old
because I reckon
the vibe switch between those
two things might have been a bit oh yeah do you know what i mean could you do that yeah student
union and then wicks I I really
not to be boring
but I never went
loads older
because I just
I just always
whenever I
ended up going on a date
with a girl
that was in her
when I was like 29, 30
and a bit of an immature
29, 30
I was dating girls
who I'd met at a comedy club
or whatever
and they were 34, 35
older than me
and they were like 35 older than me and
they were like we had obviously gone oh he's nice he's presentable got a good sense of humor and
then within an hour they'd gone oh he's a fucking man child and i'm 34 35 and i'm not i haven't got
time to waste so i it was actually easier dating girls that are a bit younger than you because i
was such a dickhead and i was messing around and our lives sorted like i i remember being like seeing a girl who was a bit older than
me and i could tell i was just irritating her like what the fuck are you doing with your life i'm like
i like i really like getting smashed on school nights like and it just didn't tune in so in all
honesty i did go younger but i just uh it was a bit it never worked out you
never had great chat like i like i don't think i could have a conversation with an 18 year old now
it's yeah now yeah not a long one anyway i can have the old love the podcast lad nice one mate
bye i can do that a friendship if you put enough sort of distance of yourself, and we can not just be talking about age,
you can be talking about wealth,
you can be talking about geography,
you could be talking about like the social spectrum
of like your upper class, lower class, age,
to have a massive change.
Like if you're incredibly young and they're old,
friendships aren't easily formed like that.
It takes a remarkable friendship to bridge those gaps
and the reality is as everyone lives like is there's a one there's a one there's a one really
the reality is you meet someone who's you've got a shared experience with or you're going through
the same things with you have things in common you're attracted to each other and i'm sure there
are loads of examples where you could be like he he was 19, he was 38, but she was like, whatever.
And that worked.
But in reality, and in most walks of life,
it is easier if you have shared experience or shared interests.
It makes it easier, doesn't it?
I don't know, man.
I mean, in the majority of cases, I know there's remarkable exceptions.
I'm friends with one of my mum's friends from before she died.
And he's,
I basically call him,
like,
after my mum died,
he was one of the few people
from her life
that kept making an effort with me.
So he's become,
he's not related to us at all.
And we call him Uncle Robert.
And we're mates.
We go for dinner sometimes at Christmas.
We've kept in touch.
I'm not mates with a lot of 58-year-old blokes.
But because he's just one of those characters
from my earlier life, we get on.
I don't have any other example of that.
It's unusual, isn't it?
For me, it's only comics.
I've got older comic mates
because you've got that in common.
But that's the thing, isn't it?
That's the thing, then. It's interesting what you're talking about um i've got there's a guy
i vaguely knew from the australian comedy festivals and his dad died around the same
time and my mom died in uh july 2019 and i just messaged him and i was just like i barely knew
him i knew him as like we'd muck about in the bars and have a laugh together i messaged him and i was
like oh yeah it's just happened to me as well have a laugh together. I messaged him and I was like, oh yeah,
it's just happened to me as well,
man.
But like,
and just started talking to him
and we ended up like
exactly what you said
just through this thing,
messaging each other
and sort of being honest with each other
and having this like bond
based on this shared experience
that was the only real thing
other than titting around in bars.
Me, you and Ash,
I've done it.
And we had that as well. Dead mum club. Yeah club yeah because my mama just died just before i went to edinburgh
and i i've been like right you know what i'm gonna do i'm gonna get through the festival
right i'd love to see troy hawk do a dead mom i'm gonna have my sad bit on the way home i'm just
gonna go through the festival fucking stay in denial for that month. And then, like, I remember about a week in,
I was at the Spank, and I was in that little dressing room,
and someone was emceeing really badly.
And I just went, I'm going to put my fist straight through that fucking balsa wood.
And I was like, I'm going to do it.
I'm just going to punch straight.
And it was where someone would have been sitting the other side,
and I was literally lining up to do it.
And I was a bit like, all right, maybe I'm not quite as okay as I thought I was just because someone was being a
bad MC.
I was just raging.
Cause what you do sometimes is I think if you're not happy with grief,
you move it to anger because anger,
you're more in control of.
And so immediately I went,
right,
I've got to sort this out.
I'm going to find some other dead mom people.
And I knew Adam and Ishan both were in the same boat.
And, and, and and yeah that was
like shared experience has brought you together completely same with people who are like in
alcoholics anonymous it doesn't matter where you from in in the world or like what your jobs are
that thing brings you together yeah it's a shared experience yeah so i think you're right so that's
that's what makes these beyond the jokes of oh, he's a nonce or whatever.
Maybe they're having a big shared experience.
What are they getting from each other that isn't like,
God, your tits are really perky.
Well, that is what they're getting though.
But that doesn't last two years.
It can.
It depends what he does.
It depends what she does.
It depends what his life's like.
He might be busy.
They might just be, like, she might just be like,
I'm just using him for a few years.
Because he's an experienced fella
who's probably been with other women
and knows what he's doing in the bedroom
a lot better than every other 17, 18, and 19-year-old
she's ever met.
She's probably fucked a couple of other 17-year-olds
and they've been dog shit.
She's found this fella.
He's lashed her all around the bedroom
like a fucking wrestling match. And she's gone, Jesus Christ, this is great. And he's lashed her all around the bedroom like a fucking wrestling match and she's gone jesus christ this is great and he's getting to fuck someone
whose tits still point that way and i think she's just a 17 year old who likes the finer things in
life being thrown around sexually and the man who's got leather heated seats in his car i think
it's gotta be more than that i think that lasts what you're describing amazing sex lasts about
three months
I think
before all the other stuff
gets in the way
and then you break up
and then you forget
why you split up
and you went
oh that sex was amazing
then you get back together
and you split up again
that's not what's happened here
they've been together two years
there's got to be something else
yeah I just
unless these people are fictional
and this is a wind up email
no it's not
I don't
it's not
if it's
these people don't do that to you
well I mean we might get we have to assume that they don't otherwise It's not. If it's. These people don't do that to you. Well, I mean, we might get.
We have to assume that they don't.
We might get a few.
Good for them if they're happy.
Absolutely.
But I just know this.
I don't think they're going around to her mum and dad's for Christmas.
And if you're 36, I don't think you should be shouting 17 year olds.
I agree with that.
I just don't think you should like.
How do you feel about.
At least 19, even 18.
I feel a bit like it's just
i'm totally fine with the genders being flipped by the way like a 19 year old male and 36 year
old woman there's no issue with that sexist piece of shit i don't know i'm sick of your
anti-male rhetoric um yeah and that's right that would be really yeah that's and that's that would be really and that's that funny thing about
when you hear teachers have fucked a pupil
and it's like a 38 year old
and they've had sex with a school pupil
that's a girl, you're like you fucking peter
it's possible of the year he met her
she had maths
like that year, like she had like a lesson
she went to lessons and then he was
38, yeah but he did wait till
GCC results day though, maybe he's just really thick and he was 38 yeah but he did wait till gcc results day though maybe
he's just really thick and he was in a class and he's been out back 20 years
it's 38 he's like i finally got a c
and a girlfriend
that's why he was so shit at maths he couldn't work out the age difference
that's what are you all right with this
oh god should we just call it a pod ladies and gents should we call that a pod it's been
a fucking one. One more.
Yeah, let's do one more.
Fuck that.
Just know when it's a pod.
One.
Yeah, one more.
You've called it.
No, you've got the high ground.
One more.
One more.
Do one more and we'll do a quick one.
One.
Just do a quick fire question.
There isn't a quick fire.
I did the quick fire.
We'll do a quick fire.
We'll make it quick fire.
I want to do one more.
It doesn't have to be a half a word.
Yeah. Hey, Dan. let's do one more.
Quickfire question.
Come on.
You've got one minute to answer that.
Dan Reese says,
Sapping in lids.
Could you have a word with a lad I know, please?
He's constantly posting on Instagram
about his runs and taking pictures
every time he fucking does anything.
He also deletes and re-uploads them
if they don't get enough likes,
like a teenage girl.
And I'm not talking about re-uploading once. I'm saying four or five times a weekend. He's deleted and re-uploads them if they don't get enough likes, like a teenage girl. And I'm not talking about re-uploading once.
I'm saying four or five times a weekend.
He's deleted and re-uploaded photos
of his nan's funeral before.
Bear in mind, this is about eight photos of him
grinning with various family members.
The other day, he met his bird's granddad
for the first time, took a selfie with him,
stuck it on Insta, then reposted it four times
just so he could get more likes.
Just for reference, he's not 14,
he's 21 years old with a full-time job.
Well, the man's a fool
because deleting your pictures
actually fucks with the algorithm,
so you're going to get less likes in the long term.
I love how Adam saw all of that and went,
Jesus Christ.
Never mind about your nan's funeral.
You're really messing with the stats.
I don't think there's really a problem
taking a picture at your nan's funeral, is there? like no unless he's sat on the casket if he's
doing it for likes fucking hell here's my thing why is his mate so fucking bothered we do you know
what i mean let him get on with his social media and you know this because you know like you're not
shy on social media fucking let people get on with it. You're a comedian. You know what I mean? Exactly.
This is becoming a bit of a trope with people that are emailing in.
Lads going,
why is my mate always on social media?
Will you get off your fucking phone?
It's annoying.
It's needy.
Adam's on it
because he's trying to develop a following.
He's a comedian.
That's what you're doing.
That's what we're doing for the podcast.
But that's what he's doing emotionally.
So fucking let him have it.
Maybe he wants to develop a following
Of the guy who makes funerals fun
Always smiling at a funeral
Yeah
You can't tell a funeral
Invite me to your funeral
And I'll cheer you up
Yeah
You're doing a TikTok
Yeah
Your grandad's dead
But at the end of the day
We can all have a laugh can't we
I'll buy you a sambuca
Fucking great we can all have a laugh can't we I'll buy you a sambuca do do do do do do do do do do do
do do do do do do do
fucking grim mate
why is it
this is sexist
but why is it worse
that it's a
a bloke doing it
if it was a girl
you'd be like
aye that's what they're like
just think
I don't know
fucking let him get on with it
I think re-uploading funeral pictures
is a bit odd
how does he know
he's re-uploaded the pictures
because he's on his insta checking it every 30 seconds he's bugged by it he's the guy with a problem he's bugged by it why you're always a bit odd. How does he know he's re-uploaded the pictures? Because he's on his Insta checking it every 30 seconds.
He's bugged by it.
He's the guy with a problem.
He's bugged by it.
You're always a bit bugged by your best mates, aren't you?
You're bugged by their traits.
Can I ask you a question?
I don't think you do.
In fact, I know you don't.
I reckon you do.
Don't know about you.
I want to know you.
What?
Do you follow anyone on social media?
Who you hate?
Just so you can hate them.
Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Hate crush. I've got loads of hate you hate. Just so you can hate them. Yeah, yeah.

You don't.
I do.
You might.
I cannot see the people that I hate.
I just can't be bothered with it.
I just don't follow.
I really enjoy it.
It's like scratching, isn't it?
It's like, yeah.
Every time I see this person,
and you can tell by the fact I'm saying person,
it's not a man.
Every time she tweets,
I really enjoy hating it.
I don't know who it is.
Because she's full of shit.
Oh, she's full of shit.
And I fucking hate her.
What's her handle?
Yeah, don't say a name.
Just say her handle.
What is it you hate about her?
Everything she believes and stands for.
All of it.
Right.
It's all bollocks.
Not an ex.
Not an enemy.
A comedian.
I'm not going to say anything.
It's not an ex.
Right.
But it's...
We all know who it is.
I'm not going to say who it is. It isn't that Right. But it's... We all know who it is. I'm not going to say who it is.
It isn't that...
Oh, it's not the obvious one.
Oh, right.
No, she's blocked me.
He'd have to.
But she's wise.
Yeah.
I cannot do that.
I find that so...
That's like...
That's like irritating.
That's forcing and irritant on me.
I want to, like... I just can't do it. I disengage with that. Like, that's like irritating. That's forcing an irritant on me. I want to like, I just can't do it.
I disengage with that.
Like it would bug me more than I'd get pleasure of like,
oh, you fucking bellend.
Laura follows people because she's like,
it's a slow car crash and I can't stop looking.
She feels, mates of ours and their partners
who just post the same.
One of my bugbears with Instagram is
people see someone doing it well like that and go all right
cool that's how you do it so you have a lot of just copycat dross that with people you know
there's some amazing social media accounts but then the people like oh they're good at that well
i'll just do my version of that and you're like it's inane boring shit with you just talking to
no it's no you've stuck like it's that whole like hi guys it's so boring people
love that's what i was doing there people love that kind of content what did you what were you
doing nothing all right people love watching people just talk about what they've bought the
shops on youtube like those people have got millions of followers i i went and i got this
thing from youtube and i got this thing from poundland or i got this thing from yeah if it's
not a lingerie try on.
And people sit there and love it.
People love that content.
Right.
I just find it too irritating.
What about the people who post all their runs?
Yeah, but it is, isn't it?
If it's on my social media,
I can find,
what about the people who are like,
I've done exercise.
Like I just go for a run
without posting the route that you do.
Yeah.
No, but I think people get validation
that encourages them to keep running.
Do you know what I mean?
Yeah.
Because they're made to like it and comment and go,
well done, lads.
And they're going, yeah, that's part of what they need.
I get why people hate it,
but I also get the validation thing.
I did digital art.
I've started.
I put it online so people like it.
So I'm like, okay, people like it, I'll do it again.
Yeah, but it's nice to look at. Yeah, yeah, but it's the same
kind of... Maybe this fella's running
in like really nice loops.
I ran in and drew a flower at the same time.
Wow, that'd be some advanced jogging,
wouldn't it? Look at that.
I did fucking Super Mario.
All around Sefton Park.
Yeah, yeah.
Maybe, Dan Rees, you just need to unfollow.
Like, this will be the last one
I'm whinging about my mates
on social media
because basically
everyone else goes,
no, leave him alone.
And I'm like,
I get what you mean.
Just mute him.
Even unfollow him.
I get what you mean.
Mute.

but I'm not following you online,
you're a fucking bore.

interesting social media content

Fair play.

No.
No, I'm joking.
All right.
Yeah.
