It feels good.
Yeah.
Oh.
I feel like we're building up to today
being the best episode ever.
Yeah.
Ooh.
Ooh, I nearly burped.
I don't know how you live without breakfast, guys.
I don't know.
You know you are not a breakfast person.
You're not a breakfast person.
I'm not a breakfast person.
I might have a pack of McCoy's.
It's not suitable.
It's too much sodium.
We'll get a nice lunch though.
Oh we will, won't we?
Sodium, yeah.
Salt?
Oh yeah.
Salt?
I just don't have a...
Sodium.
It's such an unnecessary...
I think that's what...
When healthy people are like, there's way too much sodium in that.
That's not healthy people.
It's just twats, innit?
Yeah.
Yeah, it's people making unhealthy people
feel bad, isn't it?
Not only am I healthier
than you,
I know a different word,
you big cunt.
My sodium intake
is right down.
Is it?
Well,
I love salt.
Isn't it mad to hear people
like, I'm dead fit
and I'm going to make,
like, just you be happy
with you then.
Do you know what I mean?
Look at me.
Ah, you're the cunt.
Well, like, be happy with you.
Stop trying to push it on me.
Like religion as well.
All that shit.
Getting fat is like religion.
Yeah, no, I feel like if I've found something good for me,
I'm like, fuck you, I've found it.
I'm not telling you.
I'm going to live longer.
That's bad on you though, isn't it?
These other people want to, you know,
they feel the benefits of a fitness regime
and they're trying to share that with you.
Same as the Lord,
the Saviour Jesus Christ.
Once Jesus comes into your life,
apparently everything's better.
Yeah, but Jesus doesn't make your arse bigger.
I'll give the gym,
the gym one thing, you know.
Do you know my family?
I'd be like, cool.
You don't want to be, cool.
That's not part of the religion. That's not part of religion. In one thing, you know. Do you know my family? Do you not be like, cool? You don't want to be cool? Ah.
That's not part of the religion, is it?
That's not part of religion, is it?
The religion is to spread the word of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
Or Allah.
Go on, do your thing now.
What are the other ones?
Buddha.
Vishnu.
Who's Vishnu?
Ganesh.
He's the one with seven arms, isn't he?
Is he?
Yeah.
This one.
This guy.
The Conor McGregor one.
Who else is there there here comes Vishnu
who else are the main
fellas
fellows
the chiefs
L. Ron Hubbard
L. Ron Hubbard
in Hinduism
yeah L. Ron Hubbard
Ganesh
but they're all the same aren't they
and Ganesh and all them
are part of the same
yeah
but all religions are like
you need to go out
and spread this and all gym memberships now include doing videos and sticking them are part of the same. Yeah, but all religions are like, you need to go out and spread this.
And all gym memberships
now include doing videos
and sticking them on socials.
And that's the part of the deal.
It's becoming the same thing.
But Hinduism doesn't help you
get a badonk.
That's all I'm saying.
Slight negative with this.
Buddhism does.
They're not fat.
Because you're all sat in your house.
You're sat around waiting.
What's the Quaker one?
I sat around waiting
for someone to start talking shite in it. I love that. The Quaker one. You've seen Fleabag? the Quaker one? sat around waiting for someone to start talking shite in it
I love that
the Quaker one
the Quaker one no but the Quaker one is like
you're all sat around and then at some point
someone stands up and goes
and they go that's Jesus that
not just these are mental cunts
sounds like an after party
Michael J Fox goes to Quaker meetings
say that again
Michael J Fox goes to Quaker meetings why What? Oh. Say that again. Michael J. Fox goes to Quaker meetings.
Why was he just on there?
Why?
Oh.
He does?
He's Quaker?
I think you mispronounced it.
Quaker in his boots.
Oh, I get it.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Because he's scared.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Of the wrath.
He's been there.
That was so unnecessary. It was good, yeah. Of the wrath. He's been there. That was so unnecessary.
It was good though.
Leaving him.
Will, we're leaving him.
He's not going to listen, is he?
He's got a new film
ultimately.
Yeah.
What were you saying?
I want my breakfast.
I want my little
bowl of cornflakes.
I want a yum yum.
What's your normal breakfast routine? bowl of cornflakes. Want a yum yum? What's your normal breakfast routine?
Bowl of cornflakes has been since 1984.
Really?
Just normal cornflakes.
Listen, Kellogg's cornflakes,
you should put your own sugar on.
No.
Did you?
What?
You don't need to say Kellogg's, do you?
I'm not eating other cornflakes.
That'd be...
M&S is quite good.
Oh, I'm sorry, the secret millionaire.
Some people...
Is it a cost of living crisis, Dan?
Oh, 1984,
I've had Kellogg's ever since.
Yeah, I'm pretty lavish like that.
I show off about it.
Put it on socials,
like branded cornflakes.
Living it up, George Orwell.
Yeah.
So do you put your own sugar on?
Jar rule.
He didn't write 1984.
He wrote living It Up.
I think you've got it.
Shut up!
You what?
Did you put your own sugar on?
I stopped doing that in about 1992.
When I was born.
Out of respect.
Yeah, I just was like,
listen, I've got to be thinner than that guy.
Wallace has gone for cornflakes, hasn't he?
Little shit.
Yeah, branded, yeah.
And I go through some
periods where i'm like i've gone crazy i've gone mental i'm doing it i'm gonna have a little run
with rice krispies but then i always go back to crunchy no cornflakes are my ones and i'm
they're much better at night time i mean it's like a supper or cereal yeah cereal cereal supper
do you know a couple of weeks ago when I did that
when I did my residency
at the Jack
we did four nights
and I had Alfie stay with me
for four nights
we bought
the big
fuck off box
of crunchy nut cornflakes
on the Monday night
the one kilogram
yeah
and by the Thursday
they'd gone
because every night
we went back
and had two bowls
of crunchy nut cornflakes
each
two each
the amount of drinking
that you two
have done together
it's amazing that you two have done together.
It's amazing that you can flip the switch and be like,
let's not do that this week.
Let's develop my tour show where you eat crunched up cornflakes.
That's nice.
So are they just cornflakes with like a sort of a nut?
Crunchy nuts on them.
No, they're not, are they?
Is it actual crunchy nuts? Hasn't it got like a sheen on the flakes as well?
There's honey in it, I think. No, that's not, are they? Is it actual crunchy nuts? Hasn't it got like a sheen on the flakes as well? There's honey in it, I think.
There's honey in it.
No, that's honey nut Cheerios.
I think crunchy nuts is literally just like a nutty paste sort of thing.
Oh, right, yeah.
And bits of nut and a little bit of sugar.
Maybe.
Yeah, yeah.
It's pretty sweet.
Nuts have got natural sugars, haven't they?
But crunchy nut cornflakes are the goat.
You know what we could do?
I'm with you.
We could have done
top five cereals
we've been looking to do
a top five today
a draft of cereals
would have been a good one
but I've only got
cornflakes in my roster
yeah
what
no other cereals
no
I reckon I've tried
30 odd cereals
what
whoa
sorry
I'm gonna leave
wow you fucking maniac
I genuinely think that
yeah of course
because you're stoned all the time cereal's well nice when you're baked yeah yeah all the different ones like the
cinnamon uh cinnamon grapes and the cinnamon churros they've just brought them out they're
two of the rogue ones laura's a bit rogue with throwing chocolate there like in the cereals like
being okay with that my mum was pretty hard line with that we never had the chocolatey i think basically like cocoa pops i i've tried them but that was not like unless it came in one
of the mini boxes when we were on holiday we never got a big box of cocoa pops oh we did i think i
might have been a little bit more mental than i sort of remember because i look back at my child
and go yeah i was me but i think i was a bit of a fucking nightmare so my mom was like i think you were yeah
yeah i've got no information on it at all that kid uh is not getting extra chocolate based sugar in
the morning so laura gets like there's a mini weetabix with actual chunks yeah they're built in
yeah they're all good yeah jack's like yeah can i have more cereal he's like he just wants fucking
chocolate his diction's coming along really well he's like all right yeah yeah yeah yeah
yeah i did sound a bit Chinese
but things have changed
you know
my box is so chocolate
I'm nearly two and a half
get me fucking
charcoal cereal mum
fuck off
pick that up again
as well
yeah I'm gonna quit
I'm gonna quit smoking

another one
and finish it

Yeah, and I'm going to quit.
There's saves on that.
There's saves on that.
They last.
What is it?
Saves.
Saves.
I've never put a cigarette in my mouth.
I know you've not, you little princess.
So I don't know.
I've only eaten cornflakes and I've never smoked.
Not even crack.
We call it twos.
Twos?
You get twos on that?
Yeah.
Were you dead against smoking as a kid,
even though,
because it was in the house?
Well, my mum and dad smoked 40 a day each
and they didn't like the back doors open
because they were like,
no, we're paying for the fucking heating,
we're not letting that go out the fucking back door,
are we?
You're famous Yorkshire parents.
Hello.
I'm Adam Rose, dad. You've met me. Yorkshire as hello I'm Adam Rose dad
you've met Mick
he is
Yorkshire as fuck

when are you smoking
live in the
doghouse
absolute bastards
I'll do it though
I love those little fuckers
people who smoke in the car
should be executed.
It's illegal to smoke even in your own car,
on your own now, innit?
Oh, I thought it was just 18-year-olds in the car.
No.
It's illegal to smoke inside a car.
You're not allowed to smoke an 18-year-old in the car.
Is that true?
That is true, isn't it?
I think that, yeah.
I thought it was under 18s in the car
and you couldn't do it then.
I'm all for it.
Good.
Yeah.
Apparently so, anyway.
Yeah, but you're not allowed to eat when you're driving. No, it then. I'm all for it. Good. Yeah. Apparently so anyway.
Yeah, but you're not allowed to eat when you're driving.
No, it's not even
when you're driving.
You can't even sit
in your car and smoke.
But you can't pull your car
up on the edge of a cliff
and just have like a,
you know,
one of those days
where you just need a
little power you want.
Every time I'm driving
near a cliff edge,
I think,
God, I'd love a fag.
It's just,
there's a cliff.
Cold cliff.
Take it in.
You alright? Everything alright? I think I'd love a fag it's just there's a cliff called cliff take it in you alright

bacon's the one in the morning bacon, eggs, bit of bacon in the morning.
Bacon's the one.
In the morning.
Bacon, eggs, bit of bread.
Ooh, shove it in me bollocks.
Started getting into a bit of the streaky bacon and hash browns just as a little breakfast snack.
It's working for me.
Streaky bacon is proper bacon.
The crispy bacon.
Yeah.
I love that bacon.
What?
Like I'm on a bacon man, but I'll go for that.
The streaky bacon's just better.
Smoked streaky bacon.
Yeah.
And like, made really crispy.
Oh, yeah.
Like, just before it turns black.
Oh, yeah.
That is what you want.
Oh, that's so much sodium.
I love a hash brown.
Hash brown might be one of my favourite breakfast items.
There's an air fryer, mate.
Hash brown's in an air fryer.
Oh, it works pretty damn well.
There's a little cafe in Shoreditch in London
called Ozone.
Was recommended to me by our photographer, Jack Finnegan.
It is spectacular.
And they do an eggs benedict,
which is bacon, the eggs, the holiday sauce.
Holiday sauce?
He doesn't know that. You're 42. Holiday sauce? He doesn't know that.
You're 42.
Holiday sauce?
It's a bit of SPF 30.
Hollandaise?
There you go.
Yeah, all right, cool.
Hollandaise sauce is wonderful.
Is it fishy mayo?
No.
All right, cool.
It's a wrapper.
Is that Thousand Miles dressing?
Thousand Miles dressing.
The Vanessa Carlton sauce.
Or two preclinics.
Thousand Islands dressing.
There you go.
Who's got a Thousand Islands?
Richard Branson.
Japan.
But in Ozone, you know the base of the Eggs Benny?
Like sometimes it's a bagel, sometimes it's toast.
It's bubble and squeak.
It's like a roast in a fly up.
Wow.
Dan, bubble and squeak?
What's your favourite part
of bubble and squeak?
Get me an address on that.
Will,
Wallace is trying
to bite through wires.
We might need to sort
the Wallace situation out
a little bit.
Wallace!
No!
Do you stop?
Yeah.
Glad.
Now he starts again.
Dan, do you like...
Pass me him.
Do you like Bubble and Squeak, Dan?
Yeah, love it.
Sometimes I have it too much.
But I'm not a Bubble and Squeak man in the morning.
I'm not a Bubble and Squeak man at lunch.
I'm not a Bubble and Squeak man...
Never, I never have it.
I'm never a Bubble and Squeak man.
Do you know what it is?
Let me guess.
What's bubble? Shut up.
Whose voice was that?
Shut up. Shut up.
Dan's saying Fortnite stuff.
Hang on. Is it
like
sausage and potato?
No. That's totally sausage and potato? No.
That's totally old-ish.
Yeah.
I don't know what bubble and squeak is.
Bubble and squeak is a roast dinner.
The next day.
The day after.
Mashed up and fried to heat it back up.
Oh, I didn't know that.
You mash the potatoes up, mash the meat up,
mash all the veg up, put it in a big pan.
Do you mash the pudding up as well?
The Yorkshire puds?
Yeah.
Your dad loves them.
I know. How come he's from Yorkshire? From Yorkshire pudds? Yeah. Your dad loves them. I know.
Ah, you know him.
Oh, because he's from Yorkshire.
From Yorkshire.
Fucking love a Yorkshire pudding, mate.
Jeff.
But I don't like the big ones.
I like the little ones.
I'm filling them in gravy.
Fuck me.
Yeah, I'd rather have three little ones than a big one.
So you just mash it all up.
Yeah.
And fry it.
Make it into like a,
like a,
looks like haggis or something.
Or does it look like a fucking dirty omelette?
Looks like an omelette, yeah.
What's it look like? Yeah, it looks like a dirty omelette yeah it's like it's just it's all mashed together
it's not like you don't compact it you just like smash it all up oh and then you fry it up and then
you eat it with salt and pepper on can you do that with everything i mean there's no laws do you think
that i'd work with like cheese on toast or something i just i feel like that's a fun option
for a lot of food.
Or just smash it all to bits.
Just fucking,
just fry it and eat it.
I think you need more than two ingredients.
Cheese and toast,
bubble and squeak.
I rarely have more than two ingredients.
Cornflakes,
milk,
leave it at that.
Cheese,
toast,
there you go.
Pathetic.
Bubble and squeak's excellent.
I wonder if ever you'll grow out of that.
Yeah,
it's coming.
I can feel it.
Yeah.
Just as soon as 50 isn't going,
do you know what?
I'm not fussy anymore.
As soon as my two-year-old stops smoking,
I'm going to really sort my diet out.
Until then, bacon, hash brown.
What happens if the doctor goes,
Dan, you're going to die?
Yeah, but the best way to avoid that is
to not speak to doctors.
Thought of it.
How's your foot?
Yeah, it's on.
It's on?
Yeah, the foot's on.
We've not spoken about that. How is your foot? Yeah, it's on. It's on? Yeah, the foot's on. We've not spoken about that.
How is your foot?
I've got a referral.
Yeah, you had a referral six weeks ago.
I tried to ring the place.
And they didn't answer the phone.
I tried to ring.
Oh, fuck.
That is such a man thing to do.
Jesus Christ.
Trying to ring once.
Your phone would save your hand.
Oh, shit.
There that goes.
Did you ring once and because he didn't answer you, you're like, carl i'm not a fucking child twice twice i rang twice it's on

Ooh.
Are you going to do them?
We're going to get every single person,
every single patron to message you on the hour,
every hour, saying if you've done it.
And just ruin your social media.
Okay.
Because we don't want you to die because we love you.
Right.
Right, cool. My social media is already up the fucking swanny, isn't it?
Because it's just snake, snake o'clock.

I know everything about everything, mate.
Can you nudge a tumour to...
Yes.
You know on the old PlayStation controller
there was the rumble bit at the bottom?
Yeah.
It feels like that.
You can just move it around.
That's not good, Dan.
I think that might be good.
Oh my good God. It makes me quiver. No I think that might be good. Oh, my good God.
It makes me quiver.
No, we should sort it now.
You're right.
I've got a bite on the inside of my thigh
that is sore and big as me.
I know, but I just got into it, didn't I?
Just really...
And I want to go to the walk-in.
It's just a bite that'll go down,
but I'm like, no, I want to get it fixed.
Yeah, a bite, you're fine, though.
You've seen the state of my leg last week.
Yeah, but it's bad.
Yeah. My social media is all over the shop. Thank, a bite, you're fine though. You've seen the state of my leg last week. Yeah, but it's bad. Yeah.
My social media is all over the shop.
Thank you for so many of the snake things.
Will Hutchby made me an AI tour poster
with a snake around my neck
and then sent it to me with a little video
that I put on socials last week.
Can you put them in the same WeTransfer?
Let me finish.
He put it in the same WeTransfer
and I sent it on to my tour manager. WeTransfer.
And she sent it on to all the venues
with the snake poster
and some of the venues are putting it online.
Like, this cunt's weird.
He sent us a new poster with a snake round his neck.
Can you see what I mean now?
Thanks, Brighton.
What?
When you've seen those pictures with you with snakes around you,
it doesn't look odd, does it?
No, it's starting to feel very normal,
because I see seven a day.
And you got really obsessed about that.
But it was a compliment in a way.
No, there's no...
Like, I have got a...
The thing is, in that moment,
you were being a cunt.
You were being funny, but I knew it was a dick,
and I was like, fuck off. And then you were having a cunt. You were being funny, but I knew it was Nick and I was like, you can fuck off.
And then you were having a go
about something else
and I just got my little,
you know,
Nick is in a twist.
Oh, you suit snakes.
You'd rather suit something than not,
no matter what it is.
What?
No.
What do you mean?
You suit having snakes.
No, hang on.
But if there was a bullshit there.
You suited having like a gecko on your shoulder.
You'd be like, oh, great. Yeah, because otherwise you'd suited having like a gecko on your shoulder, you'd be like, oh, great.
Yeah, because otherwise you'd look silly with a gecko on your shoulder,
and now you look silly.
Just because you suit something, it doesn't-
Yeah, bazooka.
You really suit a bazooka.
You should just wear it everywhere.
I mean, that would be cool.
Exactly.
You'd take the bad example there.
You suit a bazooka.
If you said that to anyone and they were like,
who are you talking to?
The only reason I'm not walking around with a bazooka if you said that to anyone and they were like who are you talking to the only reason I'm not
the only reason
I'm not walking around
with a bazooka
is because no one
gives me compliments
about me shooting bazookas
14 seconds out of the house
you're arrested
you're telling me
like you wouldn't
want to look good
with a bazooka
like Finn
would look like
a fucking idiot
with a bazooka
you know what I mean
where am I taking a bazooka
he'd look like
he's looking after
someone's bazooka but me I'd look what Adam's got his bazooka. You know what I mean? Where am I taking a bazooka? He'd look like he's looking after someone's bazooka.
But me,
I'd look,
wow,
Adam's got his bazooka.
I think it'd look like
he'd been put in a cell
in the Turkish hills.
I think you'd suit a bazooka
with the rest of the kit,
you know?
And you're saying that
as a compliment?
That's what I'm saying?
You'd rather suit anything
than not suit anything?
I tell you what,
the only way I'm going to get
this referral is if I use a bazooka.
So it could be useful, yeah just we love you yeah thanks well we're financially tied to you
it's the same it's the same it's a lot of how laura feels about it
we're trying to do the same joke a lot today aren't we we've done it four times
i can hear my joke in joke while you're saying it.
Maybe we're both as funny as each other.
I don't think so.
I think you're funnier.
No, I think you're funnier.
Little fucking...
Fucking...
What?
You're like a bazooka, mate.
You're going to get another bite on that thigh.
Right, I'm doing it.
I'm doing it.
I'll have my cornflakes, and then I'm doing it. I feel like a'll have my cornflakes and then I'm doing it
I feel like a
break on
you know that we started
talking about it like
yeah man
yeah man
I think
maybe
for
once we get an intro
we could get
someone to do a little food run
yeah
I don't want it to be little
I want it to be large
okay
can it not be where we went last week though
because my steed had a naughty belly
Say that again?
Naughty belly
From where?
I'm not going to name it am I?
Why?
K.O. Grill
Oh, K.O. Grill
Jake Gadder
Jake Gadder's K.O. Grill on Bolchers
I'll leave it in then
I've got a naughty belly
I've loved it
every time we've eaten there
I had a chicken burger
where the
the meat was a bit pink
and
not from there
from somewhere else
and Laura's like
it's fine
it's thigh meat
I was like
I don't know
I don't know
I just don't think
no thigh meat can be dark
but it's not pink
it was pinky
the only way meat gets pink as a white meat like chicken I just don't think no thigh meat can be dark but it's not pink it was pinky
the only way
meat gets pink
as a white meat
like chicken
and it's okay
is when it's been
barbecued
sorry
ah
is when it's been barbecued
you never mentioned
so like on the menu
at Hickory's
it says
if you see a pink ring
on it
if you see a pink ring on your chicken,
that's all right.
It's just like,
it's the sign of the barbecue
and it's purple on the dark meat.
Okay, so this was like a meat place
that usually do burgers.
I went for the chicken burger.
It was breaded
and inside just looked a little...
That's undercooked.
Right.
Because I did go to the toilet the next day
in a pretty
Adam Rowe
like way
like oh
oh ah
seconds to go
I hate
it's the worst
I mean you get it all the time
but shit
I haven't eaten it yet
yeah
so
if we were in India
for whatever reason
what's the deal there
why does
deli belly's a thing isn't it
people go over
is it just different bacteria
is it water it's the water it's different bacteria and i don't know whether you know this but the
indians love a bit of spice so when you have a lot of their food it can affect you there
can affect your stomach if you're not used to spices stuff but i am a yeah is it just
more full-on spice yeah you like you like white man spice don't you you're a white boy
I don't like white man spice
Indian spice
you're just not ready
for that shit
when we were away
and Ishan had a curry
he had it like
you know
Ishan hot
I think he asked
there's a secret code
I think
yeah
he goes like you know
and they go
I don't think
there's a secret code
I think it's
it's ethnicity
I think that's the secret code yeah they know to go make it. I don't think there's a secret code. I think it is ethnicity. I think that's the secret code.
Yeah, they know to go, make this right.
I think they're like,
one of the brethren is ordering a chicken curry hot.
That's the type of curry.
I wasn't mispronouncing curry.
Curry.
The brethren want a chicken curry.
Hot one.
And they gave it a proper kick.
And he was like, yeah, I think they know.
And I was like, I think they're going to go,
this cunt can take the heat.
Oh, what's your version of that?
It was great.
Going in and getting like a lovely chicken wing.
What?
What's your version of,
what's white boy privilege when it comes to food?
Privilege?
Yeah, he goes in, he gets the real deal, doesn't he?
He shan't.
Yeah, I get a really, really vanilla slice.
And they know.
Like, this boy knows.
He's a beige motherfucker.
Can I have a white and yellow fig?
Fuck you.
Yeah, Deli Belly's just,
it's the version of going to Spain in the 80s,
isn't it, where the water wasn't good for your stomach?
Don't drink the water.
Yeah.
It's that on top of all the spices.
Adam's trying some new accent.
World travel.
The spices.
But I wouldn't be scared of it.
That's what IBS privilege is.
What are you going to do to me?
You're already travelling in here.
What are you going to do to me?
Every day. Do you know what I mean? I go to fucking Nando're already travelling India. What are you going to do to me? Every day.
Do you know what I mean?
I go to fucking Nando's.
I might as well have been to Mumbai.
Loved it.
Adam's got deli belly
and fucking L1.
Yeah.
Yeah.
God, I really fancy a booze.
I really fancy a booze as well.
Maybe if I don't have cornflakes
this is what happens.
I felt like one day
I went for food, but you had already
fucked it the night before.
Yeah. Oh, did you have one of your
the stars aligned? But Steve's
away and he was fucked, so I just went for meat
instead. Lord.
It'll come back. I think
it's going to come back next week.
Don't do that while I'm away! Is there any
way of knowing that it's coming? Is there any do you get like a forewarning? I think it's going to come back next week. Don't do that while I'm away. Is there any way of knowing that it's coming?
Is there any, do you get like a forewarning?
I think it's a culmination of stress, you know?
I've realised that.
Is it anything to do with the equinox?
Like, I feel like it happens four times a year.
Your coping mechanism is alcohol.
You just don't get stressed very often.
You're an alcoholic.
We're worried about you.
When you see someone get drunk five times a year,
like, it's off the rails. I realised today was like oh shit i'm really stressed and then i
was like oh and i wanted to go out and get drunk but i never get i never get stressed but i got
stressed today and now it's past well it hasn't passed but you're just getting used to it yeah
you're normalizing the stress yeah i'm living in it and i don't deal with stress and anxiety well
at all no at all because i don't get it often enough to be able to know how to deal with it
yeah no oh shit i might just fucking go to sleep i agree i've did i try and design my life to not
have those things happen in it yeah and i'm a happier person some people yeah you can live you
like like you said with the therapist almost want the the noise to just feel
yesterday um at a breakthrough i'll tell you about uh off air which was a quite a eye-opening
you know when you go ask camille those words just left my mouth uh but what she reckons is i've i've
been in crisis mode my whole life so since since a very young age I've been in crisis mode my whole life so
since
since a very young age
I've been in crisis mode
so
I was talking to her yesterday
I was like
if I've got like a big problem
I'm like
oh
we've got to just deal with this
but like if someone gets in my lift
and presses the first floor
when I'm going to the 13th
I want them dead
and I actually did say those words to me
therapist
I was like
just that minor inconvenience drives me mad like just missing the traffic light and being the one
guy sat at the red drives me mad but like if my house was on fire i'm just like ah and she went
that's because being in crisis mode is your normal and you know what to do there because
it's so familiar to you so because of like past traumas and everything
you've literally had to deal with
we're looking for a dog sitter so apply within you've had to deal with such big problems
yeah that they're you've got a coping mechanism for that yeah but then little day-to-day stuff is a trigger for like actual emotion and anger
yeah it makes so much sense right well i can't yeah i've managed to avoid the the huge draw
anyway just last basically since i've settled down and been with laura we've just got a really
smooth happy existence and then when stress is applied i'm like, yeah. Like on Monday when we did the Patreon record,
I didn't feel that the race is too much was going on
and it affects me very,
like I can feel it.
I'm so much better when I'm comfortable
and I'm happy.
It just rolls so much better.
I can't think about anything else.
Booze doesn't come into that for me though.
It's a weird one.
Same, but like I realised I'm like,
oh, maybe that's just a real culmination of it.
I just want to go out and just have a drink and a laugh to forget about it and then i'm saying i'm curing
it with the booze i'm just like i want to just think about something else for a minute
having said that though when laura's dad was ill and jack had been born that was when i went off
the rails with the coke so that's because it's not booze because booze isn't a trigger for me
that summer where it went all wrong it's not booze because booze isn't a trigger for me that summer where it went
all wrong it's definitely because of the strain of coming out of lockdowns laura's dad so yeah
actually i do have a self-medication it's just something else isn't it i medicate with myself
with pussy man normally yeah when i'm single overdose six in one year sometimes yeah like
once every two months i'm like time for a new person
yeah but if i'm stressed about something i'm not usually like
i'm like just i'm fine but i'm only thinking about that thing so i can't talk about anything
else right now even if it's like that the thing is more important. I might just let me think
about this loads.
I had that yesterday with therapy.
Therapy didn't help me yesterday.
Like it was good.
It felt like good
to get the like realisation
and release something.
And it's almost something
I already knew
but just had never articulated.
But then trying to get asleep last night
my brain's like
that thing happened earlier,
didn't it?
Yeah.
Can we just go to sleep?
Yeah.
Go and play solitaire for a bit,
just to think of something else.
I have to think of every possibility.
I have to think of the worst thing
and then get okay with that.
Before you can like...
And then work down and go,
like, the worst thing that can happen is this.
Will I be okay?
And I go, yeah, I'll work it out.
So you de-catastrophize.
Yeah, but I make it the worst possible
and go, if that happens, will I survive? Yeah. So you decatastrophize? Yeah. But I make it the worst possible and go,
if that happens,
will I survive?
Yeah.
So it can only get better from there.
So just rational thought kicks in.
I think that's how therapy should go
if you're really dealing with stuff,
you know.
I think if you're really cracking open,
it shouldn't just be like,
oh great,
that was good.
Said that,
and now I'm fine.
Like it's going to have ramifications. Yeah, but I just needed a good night's sleep. Last night I just didn't get one. Like today. I don't know. No, I'm fine. Like, it's going to have ramifications.
Yeah, but I just needed a good night's sleep.
Last night, I just didn't get one.
Like, today's a long-ass day.
We're doing full pod.
Wonderful Pete Furman's going to join us shortly.
No, bro.
And then I'm off to Edinburgh.
I've got to check into my apartment.
One-bedroom flat in Edinburgh for the first time ever.
Living on my own in a fucking gaff as well,
like an Airbnb.
I'm not in some student piss hole.
Like,
it's,
oh,
I'm so excited.
Oh,
getting those golf clubs to Edinburgh on the train.
No,
no sleep.
Full pod today.
Has to get a train up to the Edinburgh Festival,
playing golf in the morning.
You love the chaos.
Yeah.
You're taking the suitcase as well.
I'd be so stressed.
Yeah,
that's what I wheeled me golf clubs in on, isn't that's gonna be a fun train there it's just that one change at
wigan to get off the fair shit train onto the avanti on the avanti one i've booked a bike space
for me for me stuff you're looking like a fancy cunt with a suitcase and golf clubs in wigan
i think what i'm gonna do uh and my missus said that I'd look like a paedophile
if I did this,
but I want your opinion on it.
I was going to clean me golf clubs on the train.
Don't you fucking dare.
Please do.
And ask a stranger to video it.
They need a little bit of a clean.
You would call that person a paedophile?
They've got some mud in the grooves
and it's affecting me spin game.
Yeah, we've been thinking that.
The spin game's off, isn't it? And I thought that's mud in the grooves and it's affecting my spin game. Yeah, we've been thinking that. Your spin game's off, isn't it?
And I thought,
that's mud in the grooves.
Please do it
and please take a picture.
Is it as weird as,
is it weird?
Yeah.
It's more cunty
than I think you're giving it credit.
Because you will look like,
you will look like,
on the way to Edinburgh
to play in the golf clubs,
you'll look like an absolute super cunt.
Do you reckon?
Yeah.
And then when you get to Edinburgh, keep doing it. Do it in the loft bar.
Do it at all the extra gigs you're doing.
Fly it with your golf clubs.
That guy's not even flying. He's just cleaning a
fucking sandwich. Do you not think people would just be
looking at me like, look at him. He plays golf.
Getting stuff done. Yeah, that's what they think.
In Wigan. Do clean stuff.
Anything on the train.
Obviously you've got nothing else to do for a few hours, so on the train obviously you've got
nothing else to do
for a few hours so
do something that
you've definitely
got to do

On WhatsApp.
But you know when you're going to like a cafe in London,
like a Starbucks or anything,
like an independent one or whatever,
and there's just hundreds of people sat around with a laptop just like tapping away.
Carl is convinced that none of them
are actually doing anything.
They're not.
You can do it at home.
What are you doing?
Yeah, minor annoyance,
going to a shared workspace,

that feeling where it feels like your body's jizzing.
Yeah, back scratch is well up there.
I really love getting earbuds in, especially if there's water in there.
Oh, no.
And some people hate that.
Blowjob.
What, non-sexual thing?
I'll give you an idea. A tickle on my legs and feet. A non-sexual thing will give you an over yeah yeah
a tickle on my legs
a non-sexual blowjob
tickle on my legs
and feet
feet
you like your feet
oh mate
that is the key
the key to my heart
is a tickle on my feet
I nearly boosted
a woman's head off
in Italy
for tickling me feet
accidentally
how did she tickle
your feet
she was a masseuse
ah
yeah
no the kick
was accidental
like she just went
over to tickle
like Buckaroo
and I was like I'm sorry love like yesterday said like i said wallace because
wallace was off his food when you go to pet to home and i was exhausted after work and you go
to pet to home get some new food and you just came everywhere pets at home and it just makes
you dirty little hamsters and i was i was sitting down like joey you've sat down for the night
yeah you're done i was like i can't she's like if you do it i'll tickle your feet i'll have Dirty little hamsters. And I was sitting down like, Joe, you've sat down for the night. Yeah.
You're done.
I was like, I can't.
She was like, if you do it, I'll tickle your feet.
I'll have my shoes on within 30 seconds.
That would have made it harder to shirt me.
What?
Tickle through me.
If you do it, I'll tickle your feet.
You're not tickling my feet.
I'll put my shoes on in bed.
She went after.
Oh.
And then when I got home,
she'd order Domino's with cookies overrated underrated
Domino's
Domino's cookies
I like Domino's
out of the pizza chains
Papa John's is in the fucking conference north
that one's nowhere
we've got American pizza slice on the way right now
and it just buries Domino's
way beneath
the ground Domino's way beneath the ground
yeah
Domino's is one of them people
one of them companies
who's like
it's convenience
that's put it to the top
it's where it always available
in most places
yeah they smash that bit
but I
I can understand
why people do really like it
I do
I know I like it
but it's not worth the price
it's just
it's fine
there's bits of it
that are great
and there's other bits
that aren't.
The fact that they
don't do fries,
they don't,
yeah,
they don't do fries though
and the wedges that they do
is,
you know,
if you work in Domino's,
it's going to be a little bit of advice.
You know the wedges you make?
You know when you take them
out of the oven?
Don't.
And leave them in
for another four or five minutes.
The amount of rock solid wedges
I've bitten from there
is insane. Yeah. What I do now of rock solid wedges I've bitten from there is insane.
Yeah.
What I do now is
I get wedges from Domino's
and I preheat my oven
for when my Domino's arrives
so that I can finish cooking them for them.
Absolute tech as that
is getting the fries out of...
Whatever takeaway you've got,
get them in the air fryer for a bit
just to give them that little bit of heat back
to maybe crisp them up a bit we had
pizza on after the boozing because i did a lot of boozing after your show at jimmy's and i wanted
i specifically wanted pizza hut and it's a 15 minute drive we went and got it and regret just
regret i just don't know what it is about it. The idea of it is better than the actual thing.
It's not because it used to be good.
Yeah, it's a weird one.
Although the one we had after the Glasgow show was banging.
That was one of the best pizza I've had.
That was good pizza, yeah.
That wasn't pizza though.
It was, wasn't it?
No, it wasn't.
It was under the box.
No.
Oh, was it not?
No.
So what you're talking about with American Slice and that one
is big cities particularly will have a few places
that just smash pizza, like know exactly how to do it.
Domino's, Pizza Hut, Papa John's,
they're fucking everywhere, aren't they?
They're just every town.
Like even Penwitham, where I grew up in Preston,
which is a suburb of Preston, has got a Papa John's.
And you're like, ooh, that's good, isn't it?
But when you rate it,
no, because for Pem with them, that felt cool.
But actually, it's not good.
Everyone up in the world, son. They're opening Papa
John's round corner. I know.
I remember when your dad told me that.
The city's going
to the moon now. Gonna have Papa John's,
gonna have a Tesco Express, oh,
possibilities endless. Oh, this man's got a
stroke.
This is not the worst
impression I've ever had.
I've got
a conspiracy corner.
Is it pizza or raisin?
People have been asking.
There is one.
There is?
It's real.
Are you fucking
chewing kids' heads off?
It's real.
It's a conspiracy.
Keep sending them in, please.
Can we have a jingle, please?
I bought a book
to take to Edinburgh with me
and I have left it in my flat
but
it's called Conspiracy
and it's just
like a load of the main ones
and all the details about them
but I want funny ones
what
you bought a book for Edinburgh
and you've left it in your flat
of course I have
yeah
you'll buy it again there
and won't be there either
Conspiracy is the
it's a big book
they knew you were going to do that it's a big book they knew you were going to do that
it's a big book
do you want to hear
my car's conspiracy corner
yeah
cheer by way of cheer
yeah just do it
who's drinking
who's podding
Neil Buchanan
has actually Banksy
oh I've heard this one
the Art Attack Man
the Art Attack Man
not Heart Attack
Art Attack
yeah so for our international listeners there's a TV show that ran for years Oh, I've heard this one. The Art Attack Man. The Art Attack Man. Not Heart Attack. Art Attack. Yeah.
So for our international listeners,
there's a TV show that ran for years in the UK
called Art Attack.
It rhymes with heart attack.
Right.
But it does.
And it was a man would do art for kids.
And so the teacher would have to do it along the way.
And then he'd do a big art attack
at the end of every episode
where he'd like
he'd do like a man
you know
fucking
riding a wave
with a shark
biting his head off
but he'd make it
out of like shark stuff
and then
he'd put it on the beach
and he'd get an helicopter
and show you that
and you'd be like
fucking hell
you've nailed that Neil
and he'd make it move
every scout's memory
is more fun than my memory
yeah it was about fucking there was a bazooka and a shark and then he was like well you didn't even know And you'd be like, fucking hell, you've nailed that, Neil. And he'd make it move. Every Scout's memory is more fun than my memory.
Yeah, it was about a little fucking,
there was a bazooka and a shark.
And then he was like,
well, you didn't even know what I was doing.
Sharks.
What were you going to say then, Dan?
There's a dildo going off in the studio.
I think there was a sex toy vibrating somewhere in the studio,
which is the most, have a word,
love honey sponsorship thing I've ever...
It's the computer fan.
Oh, that's good. It's amazing
that I thought it would be a
sex toy. Before the computer.
It's like, oh, someone's been... There's air conditioning here,
there's hand dryers, there's computers, and Dan's like,
why is... Who's put a dildo on there? Because there's
more sex toys than any of those other things combined.
So Neil
Buchanan is Banksy.
But there's also another one that Banksy is numerous people, but we will do that another day. Oh no, I think you can link is Banksy but there's also another one that Banksy
is numerous people
but we will do that
another day
oh no I think you can
link the Banksy thing
Banksy
a lot of people
know who he is now
there's Jeff Banks
apparently
because he was like
no one's buying
these keks
so
it's
it's a fella
called Roger
something isn't it
some guy from Oxford
either
yeah but that's
who we've been told it's Bristol isn't it that's where Banksy's from maybe it's a fella called Roger something isn't he some guy from Oxford like yeah but that's who
we've been told
it's Bristol isn't it
that's where Banksy's from
no it begins with R
maybe it's Robert
Robert Gunningham
okay
we're gonna have a google on that
that's what we've been told
am I right
er
Robin Gunningham
there you go
that was close enough
how do you verify
has he admitted to being Banksy
no
he's categorically said,
no, I'm the gundogs, mate.
Don't worry about it.
So what job has he got?
Is he an artist?
Yeah.
No, he is.
Does he work at Cafe Nero?
He doesn't actually say what he does.
Does he work at a bank?
The guy that they've said is Banksy
is also mysterious.
Yeah.
So it's in Gunningham's sort of MO.
It's him.
It's Gunno.
Why is it him though?
Because it is.
Everyone just knows it is now.
Really?
Yeah, but there's also a thing that has met numerous people.
If you Google who is Banksy, it says it's Robin Gunningham.
That's what I did.
Yeah. Because they've been like says it's Robin Gunningham. That's what I did. Yeah.
Because they've been like, is that Robin Gunningham?
Spray painting that wall and then wandering off secretively.
I've done a fake Banksy because I'm not him.
But no one will know.
Do I still do this conspiracy then?
Yeah.
How much conspiracy do you got?
I've got Neil Buchanan is Banksy.
Is that the end of it then?
Well, if you've just proved it wrong, yes.
I'm now pro-conspiracy. This is the most fun one
I've had. So Neil Buchanan stayed in an apartment
in 2004.
Where the
art on Brick Lane appeared overnight
across the street from Neil.
Who's tracking Neil
Buchanan's movements like this? The head?
His wife. Neil is a night owl by nature. who's tracking Neil Buchanan's movements like this the head his wife Neil
Neil is a night owl
by nature
is he
he loves midnight
so much fun
goes on in there
you're constantly
seeing Neil Buchanan
in like a
Tesco
extra
Bristol is where
Neil and his partner
have lived
have
yep
for four years
between 96 and 2000
before Bangssy was active
yeah but he was just
getting the roads
wasn't he
he was like
we need to know
where these are going
yeah yeah yeah
Banksy has also
been found at locations
where Neil has been
performing
in panto
his heavy metal music
what
he's famously
he's in a heavy metal
brand and he's also
a chef
he's anti-establishment
genre of music so he's like fuck the systems Neil Buchanan's got ADHD hasn brand and he's also a chef. He's anti-establishment genre of music,
so he's like, fuck the systems.
Neil Buchanan's got ADHD, hasn't he?
He's high-functioning.
Yeah.
What's Neil Buchanan's death metal band called, please?
Marseille.
Banksy.
I am Banksy, but don't tell anyone.
They're called Marseille.
Yeah.
Right.
What a weird name for a metal band.
Yeah.
Neil can create big art attacks out of everyday
objects so what say he can't do social comedy with spray paint around the back of a bookies
yeah that's the firm one that that's a solid one he's definitely winning adam over neil put
a statement on saying he's not banksy just like banksy would i'm not banksy so I'm next on the list
his name is an anagram of anal
Ben Schoony
which is where some sort of social comedy
about bumming in the park at Liverpool John Moores
is possible
and he's never been in the same room as him
or never seen
and the last one is
Boy George believes it
what do you think Adam I it's robin gunningham i'm pretty sure it's
neil buchanan send in funny ones because there's ones here that aren't as an example
the dalai lama was a cold war secret agent? For now. Ooh.
The Russians.
Do you know why he thought the Cold War was like a war force in the winter?
Yeah.
So did I.
Yeah.
Apparently he helped Tibetan guerrillas.
That's a real catchphrase moment, isn't it?
Say what you see, isn't it?
It does make sense.
Isn't it just...
It's like...
It's emails, isn't it?
It's passive.
They just weren't
talking to each other just passive aggressive passive aggressive war it's just like two women
who fell out at a fucking christmas party i'm not even talking to her tell russia she's a fucking
dick don't even come over anywhere near me and stay away from my mate cuba who's on cuba's team
cuba and russia were it was was Castro wasn't it the missile crisis
Castro loved a bit of the
he just loved a bit of the
fucking chaos
did they store the missiles
Castro's therapist was like
you're bringing a lot of this
on yourself
did they store the missiles there
wasn't that the Cuban missile crisis
I don't know if it was
or the Bay of Pigs
because they were like
that's the nearest land
to the States
yeah
the threat from Russian missiles
was because of Cuba
and that was like 1959, 1962.
And they put trade embargoes in.
So Cuba's been fucked pretty much ever since.
So when people go to Havana and Cuba,
and they've got loads of old cars,
because they're just not allowed new ones.
Because America can get pretty heavy handed
with that sort of stuff.
Looks cool though.
Yeah.
And Cuban cigars
are still
are they still illegal
they were for like
50 odd years
weren't they
it was illegal
to have
Cubanos
in America
what
Cubanos
are the sandwiches
it's illegal to have
putties
it's illegal
to have
sandwiches in America
well they put
Guantanamo by there
didn't they
they were like
we're gonna send
all the naughty fellas
to York.
I love it when governments,
I don't love it.
I think it's imperialistic and horrible.
But when they're like,
yeah, this little bit of land
that's on your big bit of land.
That's ours, that.
That's definitely ours.
Yeah, Hong Kong.
That's ours, isn't it?
We own Hong Kong.
We'll look after Hong Kong.
And Gibraltar.
The Falklands
that's our rock
we were there
you know
that's ours
on Spain
on mainland Spain
I've seen my Chinese
police are there

Robert Mugabe
Robert Mugabe

but he's got the ability

perfume on a lady
on a bird
perfume on a bird I mean maybe you meant perfume on a lady. On a bird.
Perfume on a bird.
I mean, maybe you meant perfume on a bird,
and I don't think that's a good thing.
Never put, you know,
eau de toilette on your parrot.
Seneca's got a perfume right now that I fucking love.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
Bad perfume on a woman, though?
You know when a woman's overdone it?
Which one?
It's called Molecule.
Oh. Tiny. Oh, my God. no uh you know when you like a woman's like overdone it which one it's called molecule oh tiny oh my god also i did have a problem in the past where an ex-girlfriend wore the same perfume
constantly and then a new person i started pork and had the same one right this isn't i'm not i've
not done this before we're're just going to flip to something
that is in the advice
that I cannot resist doing right now
because it's,
Matthew says,
Hi Lids, need some advice
or feel free to have a word with my girlfriend.
Earlier in the year,
my mum passed away.
But the issue is,
they use the same perfume.
I don't know if you've ever had the problem
of getting a hard-on while smelling your dead mum,
but it's not the easiest.
What do I do?
Nice one.
So his girlfriend has started using the same perfume.
Just speak to her about that.
Yeah.
Tell her, not us.
Yeah, that's a mad one, that.
I don't know why you're getting in touch with us there.
This is a really obvious one.
Here's your advice. Say to your Mrs. A mrs a you know babe my mom used to wear that and you smell like me mom and she's dead stop smelling like me dead mom yeah maybe
he wants it in the daytime though maybe he likes her smelling like that in the daytime because it
reminds of his mom but when it gets down to it your bed should never mind you of your mom they've
got problems. No girlfriend
should ever smell
of your dead mum
for any reason.
You smell like my dead mum.
Change it up.
I'm just saying
maybe in the daytime
it's a sentimental thing.
If you walked in
and your girlfriend
was watching Poirot
like fucking
ooooh
you'd be like
pack that in
it's my mum now
I would.
You're right.
Yeah Poirot's a...
There's a line.
Oh, God.
Who's done it this time?
The suspense.
Ooh, Agatha Christie,
you're fucking right in those no bounds.
Ooh, you'd be like,
that reminds me of my mum.
In the day, it's fine.
Oh, in the day.
In the day, you'd be like,
oh, God.
Fucking Poirot.
It's so good.
It was the fucking travel agent, wasn't it?
What's the cutoff for Poirot?
Like 9pm or is it earlier?
On ITV3.
I love Poirot, me.
Oh, you'd be like, fucking hell.
You look like me mum.
Is this mum's name?
Is it?
Yeah.
Oh, it is, yeah.
You walked in. You look like my mum. Stop fingering yourself.
You're not leaving mum.
Oh, I've just worked it out.
You are my mum.
That's where the mistakes come.
We will be, don't you?
Yeah, cool.
The mum of names.
Yeah, don't date your mum.
In it.
Come on, Finn.
I'm...
How high are you, man?
You're concentrating on cereal.

I've had 13. I've had 13. I've had 13. mum. In it. Come on, Finn.
How high are you, man?
You're concentrating on cereals like,

You're dating your mum.
Buy her a new perfume.
Buy her a new perfume and throw that one in the bin.
Just don't even give her the choice.
So, this isn't, it's not similarly.
My mum smelt an aftershave I was wearing a few years ago
and bought the same one and I had to stop wearing it. Your mum smelt an aftershave I was wearing a few years ago and bought the same one, and I had to stop wearing it.
Your mum's wearing an aftershave?
Your ma wears aftershave.
Yeah, it was like a...
If you'd have said that in a high school,
you'd have been bullied to suicide with a mum's shirt.
No, happy.
Oh, happy he's got a girl's version.
No, no, she wore the other version.
It was quite floral.
One of my favourites.
Yeah, it's nice.
But I've had to stop wearing it.
Your ma can't be wearing aftershave, lad.
You've got to just,
you've got to throw that away.
Me ma wears aftershave.
You can't say that sentence brazenly
and just sit there smiling about it.
Seneca had...
Your ma wears Fahrenheit.
The moisturiser,
which is a lady's.
But yeah, she wasn't going for it. Belt of shaved hair Yeah. Which is a lady's. But yeah,
she wasn't going for
a belt of shave.
I don't do that either.
Which is the most,

that you do not want
a woman trying
and wearing?
There's certain
like ones.
That is,

Vanilla and tobacco.
Any man's.
The Lynx one.

Yeah, if your mum's got Jupe.
If your mum's got Jupe, have to shave on.
Christ!
Start buying Lynx Africa for your mum at Christmas.
You know?
I know she loves the gift pack.
Do you just mix your aftershaves up
or do you stick with one for a solid time?
I've got two on the go.
Or sometimes train and rotation.
And is it for different moods, different times?
Different times of the day.
It's when I'm sad, yeah.
I've got my sad one and my happy one.
Yeah, I've got my Corn Flakes Odor.
That's lovely.
Ooh, this is going to go well.
Penn Halligan's Halfetti Leather is my current...

Yeah, I think there's also...
I've got a holiday one, but it's more like fruity.
Yeah, a bit lighter.

Have you tried that?
It's so...
It's fruity.
Dragon Ball Sweat.
He loved that when he was a kid.
Penhaligon's just made sounds so made up.
I love it.
That must be the highest markup on anything on the high street.
Wow.
After shaving perfume.
Just flavoured water in it.
It's like 400 quid.
Yeah.
It can't be, like, it can't take that much to make.
Flavoured water.
Well, it is, isn't it?
No, there must be some cost in it.
No, but not much.
You can buy a bottle of 100ml.
Where are you getting Sandalwood from?
Sandals.
First response.
Yeah, it's the brand, isn't it?
Yeah.
And the package in.
Your mum can't wear an aftershave.
That's just the bottom line.
No, mine can't.
Yeah, Finn, you need to have a wearable there.
I've just stopped wearing it. She wears aftershave. We've done it for you. Your mum stole your aftershave. That's just the bottom line. No, I can't. Yeah, Finn, you need to have a way with it. I've just stopped wearing it.
She wears an aftershave.
We've done it for you.
Your mum stole your aftershave.
Yeah.
I wasn't happy about it.
I just stopped.
She's just there, smelling like a man watching Poirot.
Gosh, she's a phenomenal woman.
I can see why you're dating her.
How would she like it if you bought the same dildo?
I'll ask her.
Don't.
That's when she'd go. Don't ask her. Don't. That's what she's done.
Don't ask her.
That's going to ruin
an episode of Poirot.
Mum, pause it.
It'd be like
an adult just sitting
in a room
and only watching
anything else
for the day.
The curtains drawn.
Watching what?
What?
They're just
the legend.
The legend
of Finn's mum
just grows
he's got the
aftershave as lube
fucking
Lynx Africa
and Poirot
what a morning
she's a lovely woman
she's brilliant
it was so cool
dancing with your ma
at the
at your gig
at your gig
I was like
ooh
Africa it's great women at your gig at your gig I was like ooh Africa
Africa
women
that was someone else
ooh Africa
I've got a line that was
yes I know and do you know what
we're so tuned in today
I fucking know who it is for sure I know. And do you know what? We're so tuned in today, I fucking know who it is.
For sure.
I know you do.
And it would end it all.
All crumbled up.
Oh, God.
Listen, should we just call it a break?
Yeah.
Because there's no chance we're following.
Just a second, you press that,
I'm going to say it.
What?
I'm excited.
Pete Furman's here.
Oh!
Hey.
Press the button.
Thanks for coming in, Pete.
I'm excited to be here, man.
You're our first ever magician.
Is that a fact?
It's a fact.
Apart from me.
Oh, right.
Okay.
Yeah.
You've got some skills.
Well, the first thing I ever did on stage was magic.
No way.
100% true.
What?
Professionally?
Like in a gig?
Year five talent show.
Okay.
But it was magic
right
do you remember what the act was
I got given a
card trick book
for Christmas
and I just did some of them
right right
came third though
really
there's only 4 people in it
but I did come third
any performances since then
or just
not magic no
but I do
like if I'm hungover
yeah
I get
like horny for magic
and I will watch like,
I'll watch Penn and Teller fool us,
but only the ones where they got fooled.
Right.
The other ones,
I can't be fucked with the other ones.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
There's a lot of filler on that program.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Have you seen this one, Pete?
That's, I mean.
Where does the piss porn come into that hangover?
Because I know you go pretty dark on the porn. you go Penn and Teller and then weird porn.
So my,
my extreme hangovers are magic Penn and Teller fool us where they got fooled.
And sometimes in the YouTube piece,
I don't know whether you watch any of this yourself with it being,
you know,
a bit of a busman's laugh for you,
I suppose,
but sometimes they'll put Penn and Teller fooled and then they don't get fooled and they've just done it for my view.
And I resent that.
I resent that so much.
Who was the old fella years ago on telly
who would like tell you what happened?
He used to have a mask on
and it was always so dark and scary.
The Masked Magician.
The Masked Magician, yeah.
Was that what it was?
It was dead scary and always like smoky outside.
I don't know if it was scary.
It was all blue.
I think that's just your memory.
I was a child.
Yeah, yeah.
I used to watch that every week
yeah it was great wasn't it
because he was in the magic circle
and he wore a mask
because you're not allowed
to break the rules
to protect his identity
exactly
it'd be the Salman Rushdie
of magic
exactly
didn't want to get jumped by Sutty
there's a conspiracy
there's a conspiracy
that it was Neil Buchanan
I've heard that
the masked magician
yeah
he's busy isn't he
he is busy
you should do that one
write that one down
for your conspiracy con.
I used to watch that every week.
But yeah,
to answer your question,
okay,
to answer your question,
yes,
I do go,
I go,
I have odd pornography searches
including,
you know,
Lady We,
and then I do
Magic First.
The Magic Stuff.
But then I also watch like,
Steve's got me onto it.
Steve's not here at the minute.
He's got me onto the emotional,
like Britain's Got Talent auditions.
So where they come on and go,
fucking hell,
me nan died yesterday,
but she just wanted me to sing
because that's why I'm here.
And then they get the golden buzzer.
Oh, fuck me.
It's great.
It's so good.
So wait a minute.
So it's magic,
porn,
then sub-story.
And yeah,
but then sometimes,
so I used to yeah
sometimes I watch
like really emotional stuff
after the porn
yeah I'm just
I'm a mess
when I'm over
yeah
would you ever mix
any of it
like magic porn
magic porn
does that exist
I don't
I've never come across it
you could start
the expression
I've seen girls get
sewn in half with a duke
but that's about it
is that what's going on
yeah
no I think
there's a gap in the market
there
Britain's got talent
should I start going
to hospitals
and going
your nan's just died
bam
get in
it's a good place to like
recruit
recruit
no they've got to be
talented
it's not Britain's Got Dead Nans,
it's Britain's Got Talent.
It basically is
Britain's Got Dead Nans,
isn't it?
Has anybody ever won
who's nan isn't dead?
Except for the dog.
That dog's nan
will have been dead.
There you go.
They love that audition,
don't they?
There's like,
these are good,
these are mental sob stories
and then there's a quote
for the,
just mental.
That's why X Factor used to be great. Because it used to just be the lunatics. Because there was no, mental sob stories. And then there's a quote for the, just mental. Like, this was.
That's why X Factor used to be great.
Because it used to just be the lunatics.
Because there was no
conscience about it.
No.
It was so much better,
those programs were so much better
when it was just in
the room with just the four judges.
Yeah.
Because it got more awkward
when they were shit.
Like,
when it's in front of like
thousands of people
and they're booing them,
I feel like awful. Yeah. Don't you think that it's like more vetted thousands of people and they're booing them, I feel like awful.
Yeah.
Don't you think that it's like more vetted now as well?
It is.
That's what I mean.
Yeah.
The acts,
I don't know if we've like run out of really legitimately shit acts or not.
No,
I think it's.
In those early days,
they just seemed like crap.
I think it's because people are like,
you can't say that to people no more.
So I'm like,
I'd be like,
you're the big fat ugly stupid woman,
get out of my house.
And they'd be like,
oh,
you can't say that no more.
I'm telling you,
you gotta be like,
oh,
you can't really, you know, you're not really a good singer, are good singer are you right right so they've got to be more gentle with it more pc yeah right
did you they must have been all over you from the off with that sort of stuff what the britain's got
talent thing not so much the britain's got talent but had a call from like america's well get a call
sort of annually from america's got. It just doesn't, you know,
it just, the idea of it
just makes my skin crawl a little bit.
And also, you know,
what I've really got,
I mean, this maybe makes me sound
like my ambitions are really low,
but no sort of ambition
to go and work in America, really.
I've done a couple of gigs in America,
not great audiences, I've found,
compared to Brits, you know what I mean?
And it's like Vegas,
the sort of end game there for getting your own show,
getting it.
That's what magicians seem to want to do.
I can't think of anything worse.
You know,
like David Copperfield's got like a 20 year contract.
You know what I mean?
Imagine like clocking in the same venue every night,
the same show,
blah,
blah,
blah.
It's a permanent head and fringe.
Yeah.
I'd want to blow my own head off.
Yeah.
It's like purgatory,
you know?
So no,
that doesn't appeal to me at all.
Why, why straight to America?
Why has America's got talent going?
Like the Britain's got talent not even...
Well, I think, you know,
because I've done the odd thing over here.
You're a big dog.
You're a big dog.
Because I've done a few things over here.
Maybe, I don't know.
But yeah, America would be like a totally clean slate.
So if Vegas in America is a place that you're just like,
I can't be even be asked,
what's the,
what's the gig that goes in?
Cause obviously we've done loads of gigs together.
If you've never seen Pete,
I've been at the fringe with him.
We've done gigs on the circuit together,
but you can do,
you can do standup gigs and smash,
but you can just,
you do your own stuff and you can just do comedy shows.
Where's the dream?
Where's your favorite place to gig? Where's the one that like you see it coming up in a diary and you're just, you do your own stuff and you can just do comedy shows. Where's the dream? Where's your favourite place to gig?
Where's the one that,
like you see it coming up in a diary
and you're like, this is what I'm about.
Well, I don't know about see it coming up in the diary,
but like, I'm so, I'm quite old school.
Do you know what I mean?
So when they rebooted
Tonight at the London Palladium,
I got to do that.
And that's just like, like Mecca
for like variety acts.
Do you know what I mean?
And even standups, I think, you know, we all recognise that it's just a brilliant roomcca for like variety acts you know what i mean and even stand-ups
i think you know we all recognize that it's just a brilliant room to play the london palladium
so i did the tv show and because it was the tv show you know it's like you sort of you play it
differently to a live gig so i'd like to get back there and do like the solo show at the london
palladium that would be that's like an end goal really over and above vegas and all that bollocks right yeah was jason manford
hosting that no it was bradley walsh right yeah a little bit of that though right like because he's
he's old school isn't he he's traditional and he's a comic and a host and a compare and he's all of
it one foot in the old style a little bit of variety bastards on the planet bradley walsh i
i bet yeah are we going pro bradley walsh yeah he, wasn't he? He's an ex-footballer as well.
Yeah, ex-footballer.
Played for Bradford and Manchester City.
Just like my grandad.
He was involved in the Northern Ireland Peace Treaty as well.
That's a little known fact.
Yeah.
Mo Molan, you know.
Jerry Adams.
What?
What?
Yeah.
I mean Jerry Adams.
You always get them mixed up.
It's stupid, isn't it?
Oh, fuck.
I always get them mixed up.
You are always getting them mixed up.
He's very good. He good, a great left back.
You know Bruce Forsythe's ashes are below the stage
at the London Palladium, did you know that?
Has someone just left them there?
Because that's where he burned to death.
Lost property.
Somebody needs to pick these up.
Bruce, he was cremated and his wishes were to be below the stage.
Because he'd never been booked there.
He was like, I'm getting it right at the end.
Where would you get your ashes, Poe?
Oh, good question.
Frog and bucket dressing room, I've said it before.
I want it in an urn saying,
you think you just died.
I've actually asked Laura to make that happen.
Really?
Yeah.
We'll just have a little one
because he can split you up now, can't he?
Yeah.
You get broken up now.
Yeah.
A little bit sprinkled here,
a little bit sprinkled there.
People have got jewellery and little pots.
Like you're in Ainsley's fucking spice cabinet.
Yeah, yeah.
A little bit of gear.
A little Horadano.
Yeah, a bit of Nan on that.
Yeah.
Parmesan.
Damn nightingale.
Parmesan.
Horadano. Parmesan. Damn nightingale. Parmesan. Orodano.
Good God.
We've been in the studio
three days in advance.
All right, okay.
Understood.
Where would I go?
I don't know where I'd go.
I'd only get committed
to don't fuck it and buried
or shot into space.
But you'd break me up.
Take me all around the world.
No, I don't.
I want the pile intact.
Why? Yeah. I think so, yeah. I don't't know why i like the idea of the breaking up thing it never crossed my mind but i guess if you're getting yeah you know burnt to dust why not in my living room
he's dead but he's in the living room yes
and there's a bit of the kitchen in there right now
it's always on the fridge
can't be able to tell the difference
no
but yeah he's in there
I used to always get freaked out by it
but now I'm like
oh it's actually quite comforting
in a weird way
actually I was like
oh shit what the fuck
why is your nan on the
in the drinks cabinet
yeah
she's a thirsty bitch
my wife's dad is also in Carl's house
and that was a weird request,
but he was really good about it.
Is he?
No,
he's in the living room.
Is he?
Yeah.
Is it comforting?
No.
To you?
No,
because he's next to the TV.
Yeah,
same.
I don't know why he needs to be there.
But he's not.
Wow,
watch a bit of the test match.
Is he in Iowa?
Rob.
Yeah.
What's he in?
What's he in?
What's the receptacles that you get put in?
What's the receptacles in the little sucker? What do he in? What's the receptacles that you get put in? The receptacles and the little
What do you mean?
Wasn't the ashes,
was it?
It's good.
You'd run around
with Laura's dad
when England win.
Yeah!
Drops it.
They retain them.
He's got to go back
to Australia.
I'd like to be put
into cakes
if I'm going to be cremated.
Put a bit of me
in some fucking flans.
You know what I mean?
Flans?
Come on.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
How many N's are in that word?
A's?
How many A's are in that word?
Yeah, some flans.
Flanders?
Yeah.
Send them to Flanders.
You cremate me, right?
And then just in time
for the end of the week
after everyone's had their meal.
Like, they bring out desserts and they're Adam cakes.
The waking bake, we could call it.
I'm crying, obviously, because you've died.
This pudding is very dry.
Just a quick announcement.
You are eating Adam now.
Okay.
Nah, break me up.
Take me to all the favourite gaffes.
By the way, if I do that and you're there
you've got to eat me
you can't be pulling
this vegan shite
I'm not an animal mate
I'm a human being
so I've got to
okay I'll put it aside
for that
yeah
it's not animal products
is it
like imagine if a cow
come up to you
and was like
it's sound
you can have a scrammy
you'd eat that cow
wouldn't you
so I'm doing that
I'm the cow
if it was asking for it
yeah
if you had to kill it
and cook it
and he was like
put me out of your misery
would you have a burger
uh
yeah
why not
good lad
why not
not a vegan really
no plastic one
yeah put me in cakes
if you just
if it's in a very small
quantity in the cake mixture
then it's not going to
affect the flavour
or the
like the
the stuff of the cake
but what are you getting out of it
all my mates get to eat me is it cake it's not going to affect the flavour or the stuff of the cake. But what are you getting out of it? All my mates get to eat me.
Is it cake?
It's Adam.
I am.
Would you have a body in your house?
Cremated or?
Yeah.
I think I'd feel a bit weird about it.
I'd be very similar to you, I think.
But I'm used to it now and I actually find it confusing.
Initially, I'd be like, fucking hell.
I think the mistake we made is putting him in a misd about it. I'd be very similar to you, I think, but I'm used to it now and I actually find it confusing. Initially, I'd be like, fucking hell.
I think the mistake we made is putting him in a Mr. Potato Head.
That felt disrespectful.
That was quite insensitive.
Yeah, yeah.
Pull his leg off,
half of him just pours out.
Just remember,
Laura can watch this.
I miss him so much.
You know? He's in the that's that's what i mean miss him so much do you ever get any mad requests from people like have you ever like
had any mad requests from people who were like oh i'm i'm i don't know like with magic i feel
like there's have you ever played a funeral there's potential for you to get booked that
would be fucking incredible.
Yeah.
Because I've said for a long time,
I want my funeral to be like a happy occasion.
Book a magician, book a comedian.
Saw them in half.
It makes it easier to get to meet them.
Imagine getting booked for a funeral, though.
I mean, you wouldn't be looking forward to it, would you, as the act?
I don't know.
I'd rather do a funeral than a wedding as a comedian.
Yeah, I can see that.
I think that would be such an easier gig than a wedding.
Because at a wedding,
you've got loads of the women there
who are fucking fuming.
It's not them getting married.
I'm men, I'm men.
Right.
But a lot of the women are like,
oh, when's it going to be my turn or something?
They're all trying to catch that bouquet.
And then you've got like the old people
who are really easy to upset and stuff.
Like at a funeral,
everyone's already miserable,
if anything,
but they're all just a bit happy. Like, at least miserable, if anything, but they're also a bit happy,
like, ah, at least I'm not dead.
And they're waiting for that release,
aren't they?
Yeah.
They're waiting for that moment
That's why laughing at a funeral,
like no one laughs at a wedding.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Do you know what I mean?
Everyone's crying in a wedding.
People laugh at funerals.
Adam's so competitive
that he genuinely thinks
that's how people grieve.
Yeah, at least I'm not dead.
Yeah.
We won.
He lost.
Yeah.
We're the winners
yeah
what's the maddest thing
you've been
you've been booked for
not booked for
I
generally
inquiries
for like weddings
yes
never the funeral
bar mitzvahs
seems to be a thing
that magicians are
in demand for
make the end disappear
yeah
I'm not exactly sure
why um but yeah I no i don't do any i don't do
those sort of private gigs really just sort of my own shit you know oh really there's always a
price though in there that's absolutely yeah of course that awful that awful like you know the
earl of you know cuntbridge has asked you to do a private party for 40 grand you're like oh
the duke of westminster booked michael mcintyre i think the room was for about 30 grand for a
private party wow i don't know i don't know how you turn i probably should turn that down
you know that's a bad line to work for me probably on his way up rather than like right yeah this isn't
like in the last five
years
he just puts a gig on
and he makes that
probably
yeah
also what's he doing
what material is he
doing isn't that weird
yeah what's it like to
own a castle
yeah
and a lot of land
although to be fair
now
he could probably do
observational material
about it
I've seen nothing about him for years.
Is it just me not seeing it?
Or is he just not?
No, he's doing mainstream
Saturday night TV.
Oh, don't watch the telly.
The Wheel.
Yeah.
He's, I think,
signed a big old contract
and he's gone that way.
He's gone to America as well.
He's hosting the American version
of his game show,
The Wheel.
Mad.
I can't imagine Americans liking him.
No, it's very British, isn't it?
Oh, I would imagine that's what they like.
Yeah, sure, they want it.
Sort of like the Welsh-American Englishman.
I think he's so underrated amongst comics.
The amount of comics where, like,
it's like he's sort of dismissed.
He's so, so, so good at what he does.
Without a doubt, yeah.
It's so effective.
So good.
An amazing comic. But not cool to like him, almost. Yeah. Do you know what I mean? No, I hate him. It's so effective. So good. An amazing comic.
But not cool to like him almost.
Yeah.
Do you know what I mean?
No, I hate him.
I think he's a gobshite,
but you know,
if you like that sort of shite,
it's all right.
There we go.
I'm only joking.
I've met someone who's dead south.
Have you got some tricks for us, Pete?
I've got a few tricks.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'll...
So if you're listening on the audio,
you can just go fuck yourself
for the next five minutes.
Yeah, yeah, this is...
This is going to be perfect for your podcast listeners yeah do you know that i i often do like radio stuff you know
like interviews like plug-in shows and stuff and they ask to see a trick which is totally redundant
but did you know that ventriloquism used to be a massive thing on the radio back in the day in the
1950s i could do that surely not so it was a huge thing. There was some massive, you know, British stars
that were ventriloquists on the radio.
You could do that.
Probably let's just put on a voice on them.
Anyone could do it.
Let's just put on a voice on them.
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Hey!
Hello!
You don't even have to do that.
And you'd still do the hand.
You can't.
You can't do the hand.
You don't even need the puppet.
You don't even need it.
That's mad, innit?
Nah.
They're fucking stealing the living, then, mate.
Tricks.
I'm a horrible.
Hiya.
Let's, uh...
If you're listening to the audio, we apologise.
Go over.
We'll give you a timestamp.
Go and watch this part of the video on YouTube.
Yeah, this is, uh...
Yeah, if you're listening on the audio, we'll put...
What?
If you're listening on the audio,
we'll put the timestamp on the screen.
We've been doing this for some time.
I mean, on socials and stuff
just go to the third section just go and watch the third and fourth section it just got so
complicated all of a sudden i'm doing a card trick if they're not watching on the youtube
do we really want them as fans anyway yes yeah we do they're bigger than the youtube audience
i really appreciate you guys you're the biggest i'm just being a dick but i want to see some
tricks let's do a trick we can't get Pete Fairman and not have some magic happen,
do you know what I mean?
Let's do a trick.
Now, all of these cards are different.
That's important.
We'll take your word for it.
Do you want to take a card?
Because you're closest.
Oh, he's got his eyes.
Is it all right if you take it, Adam,
for the video?
I need to be involved.
I can't believe I've got picked.
He's going off mic.
His eyes have changed.
Take one.
Don't move back yet. I can confirm Adam has got a card. He's got a card. He's definitely changed. Take one. Don't move back yet.
I can confirm Adam has got a card.
He's got a card.
He's definitely holding a card.
And now a marker pen.
Oh, you're making him do admin.
This is going to take a while.
If you can write a brief thesis on your sort of career thus far
on the face of the card,
or alternatively, just write your name.
Yeah, I'll just write the best.
Yeah.
On the value side, though, Adam,
not the backside, otherwise they're dead easy to
find it's concerning that he's still writing it's a d a m i don't think he's written the word adam
is he written yeah do you think he's drawn boobs i yeah all right i'll take the pen i hope he's not
rubbed it against that nice T-shirt.
Oh, no.
Adam, if you're going to interact with Pete,
you're going to need to use that mic next to you.
There's no chat.
He's just going to put it back,
and then we're going to...
Shall I show the people at home?
That's a very good point.
You've done this before.
Adam is showing the people at home.
I'm not looking at any monitors.
He's written a name on it.
Oh, has he written something rude?
Nope.
He really hasn't.
I don't know what name it could be.
Anonymous name.
You can return to your seat.
We'll never know.
And we're going to do it for this camera here.
It's going to mix up the cards.
Now, I'm going to show you different ways that you can shuffle a deck, right?
Different shuffles.
That one there was just like a cut to the table, right?
This one here, doing it to your close-up camera,
it's called a riffle shuffle.
Oh, sexy that.
Riffle shuffle.
A little riffle shuffle there.
This one is called a one-handed riffle shuffle.
Let's see if this is achievable
while sitting on this faux leather sofa.
Oh, look at this.
There we go.
You're amazing.
What? Fucking hell.
And they say magicians can't get girls.
And I'll cut them.
You know what?
I'm going to look at this one as well.
Now, this one, I used to practice as a kid, actually.
I would rehearse this in my mum and dad's bathroom
because they got a big bathroom with a mirror above the sink. And I'd lock myself in there and rehearse over in my mum and dad's bathroom because they've got a big bathroom with a mirror above the sink and I'd lock myself in there
and rehearse over and over again but unfortunately
this sound
coming from a bathroom
that's a cause for concern
Sounds like you're coming
Are you coming in there?
Don't do card tricks
Three colonoscopies
by the time I was 12
Right so I've mixed them up, I've yeah. Right, so I've mixed them up.
I've cut them up.
I've shuffled them up.
In my little pocket here,
I've got a little envelope,
which is empty.
I'm going to drop the entire pack of cards
inside of there.
Give another little mix.
One more shuffle to show you.
Local to me, actually.
This is the Middlesbrough shuffle.
Middlesbrough shuffle.
You mix them up.
Look, Ed.
Look, I'm going gonna skewer the envelope
on the knife
you're thinking of
one card
yeah do you remember
what it was
you still remember
you want me to think
of the one that I picked
yeah think of it
the one you wrote
your name on
here we go
shuffle pack
one two
buckle my shoe
what the fuck
what the fuck
there he is
yeah is that it
Jake Garrett
who's Jake Garrett
it's you amazing wow what card is that Jason Spade What the fuck? There he is. Jake Garrett. Who's Jake Garrett?
It's you.
Wow.
Is that Jason Spade?
Who is Jake Garrett?
We don't know.
I have no idea.
Just an anonymous guy.
Oh, okay.
Great.
All right.
You'll never know.
A little bit of mystery at the end of the mystery.
Pete, do you always take a penknife out with you?
Yeah.
A flip knife even isn't that been
an issue well i always i always have one at gigs because i usually do that in my act or whatever
no one's ever uh stopped me and so you could get away with literal murder as a magician couldn't
you oh why have you got this fucking axe and this machine gun in your car i'm a magician
well it's it's funny actually because not only have I got that, it's in my little bag of tricks.
Oh, what's the other one?
I've got a hammer.
Yeah, because when I first started doing clubs,
comedy clubs, as a magician, right?
Like, as soon as he said,
this guy's going to do a bit of magic,
it was like instant, like, everyone kind of turned off.
So I used to do this trick in the opening of my act.
There isn't really a trick, actually.
This is like a real thing.
Oh, no.
So this is...
Are you going to hammer that into your face?
I'm going to hammer this nail,
which is about, I don't know, four and a half,
six inches on a good day.
Oh, no.
No, that's at least seven.
And people think that this is a trick,
but this is a steel nail.
So here we go.
What are you doing?
He's flapping it.
The dog's concerned.
Here we go.
This camera, yeah?
Oh, no.
What are you doing?
Here we go.
Now, that's only halfway at the moment. That just the nails in his head like in the club now
everyone's watching you know what i mean oh do you listen to someone with a nail in his face
what am i gonna do oh it's all the way in there now look at that oh god dan if i sneezed right
now fella i could fucking kill you the nail is
now we're in a
it's like a quandary now
right
because the nail's in the face
how do you get the nail
out of the face
right
well luckily
on the other side
of the hammer
they've got this little
claw attachment here
what's it called
claw attachment
and I can just get that
in there
just like that
what are you doing I'm just get that in there something like that what are you doing
and just
ah
ah
ah
there it is
nail it to the face
come on
the damage
that's
the damage you could do
to your nostrils
are you alright
I'd never do something like that
you look just like your mum down there
oh yeah
you taste like chicken
the damage what I said he just looks just like his mum down there she was always sucking I don't know Oh, yeah. It tastes like chicken. The damaged what?
I said he just looks just like his mum down there.
She was always sucking, I don't know.
How do you...
That was a waste.
That was my fucking life.
Pete, that's your best trick yet.
Swatting car with a life.
It's telekinesis, mate.
Amazing.
How did you find out you can do that?
Well, you don't.
You sort of read that it's possible,
and then you kind of very carefully explore with a...
I think I did start with a nail, actually.
Obviously, I wasn't whacking it in, first of all,
but the guy that discovered how to do that was a boxer, actually,
and what happened was his nose was broken and uh in a fight and the doctor when they were sort of trying to fiddle
around and and make it right he noticed that like these you know instruments that he was using to
sort of mess about with his nose were going all the way can you just pull up a little bit closer
to you sorry sorry he was going all the way into his face, you know, because what you've got is a nasal cavity
that basically goes from your front of your nose
pretty much to the back of your skull.
And he discovered this because of this doctor
and then started doing this act
where he would hammer a nail into his face.
He used to work like sideshows in America and stuff like that.
Right.
But people don't know that,
and it looks like you've just twatted a nail into your head.
That's exactly that.
Freak the fuck.
He still has, hasn't he?
I wonder if that's where
the term hard as nails
comes from.
Like how about a fighter?
Because that would make sense.
Maybe.
That boxer being
hard as nails.
That sounds like
a good origin.
A good nickname if not.
Yeah.
Jimmy the hard as nails nail.
Be a weird nickname
for Jimmy Nail, innit?
Where's Jimmy gone?
Jimmy, I heard Crocodile Shoes the other day. He's in America. Is he? America want everyone now. be a weird nickname for Jimmy now where's Jimmy gone Jimmy
I heard
he's in America
he's in America
America want everyone now
Michael McIntyre
I'm not going mate
I'm not going
they're not going to get me
no
don't do it
write a blank check
don't matter
I'm not going
no thank you
Pete can I ask a question
what's the envelope for
what's
well
earlier today
I had a premonition,
but I cleaned myself up and I came to the studio.
Hey, come on.
I've got them all.
You're getting the full act here.
I'm not like downplaying it
because you're sitting about having a laugh.
You're getting both barrels.
Yeah, so look, forget that for a minute.
What I've got here is a pack of cards,
but it's not a pack of cards in the traditional sense.
These are blank cards,
and on them are the names of famous dead people,
people that have passed away.
So I'll sort of show it here,
but I'll show you guys as well.
So like John Denver, Patsy Cline,
who else have we got?
James Dean, Kurt Cobain.
Very American so far.
Very American so far.
Steve Irwin, he's a little bit different than Walt Disney.
Jeffrey Epstein.
Yeah, he's dead.
He's dead.
Amy Winehouse.
Amy Winehouse.
Got a few there.
Joan of Arc.
People have died in unusual ways.
Belushi.
Anyway, what I'm going to do,
we'll do it with you this time, Dan.
What I'm going to do is
I'm going to deal the cards onto the table like this.
Anywhere you like, just say stop, right?
Don't feel like you've got to go straight away or you can interrupt me wherever you want go on not yet keep going i just want to be thorough yeah because you want you to go early
don't let me run out of cards no and i think a lot of people on the audio want me to go early
but i'll go now now okay this one here Okay. Don't want to go for this one?
No.
Hang on.
Hang on.
No.
Go two back.
Two back?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
One.
There you go.
Just because I felt like a little card sort of fell there.
No, no, no.
Okay.
So do you want this one here or this one here?
One in my hand or one on the table?
One's on the table.
Table.
Table.
Okay. Elvis Presley. Solid. King of rock and roll elvis presley of all of these dead
people you've gone for elvis and you could have had next one down would have been steve irwin
over here we've got well you saw john denver tommy cooper etc etc but you've gone for elvis presley
the prediction was on the table the whole time. And what I did is before I arrived,
I put the photograph of a famous person in the envelope.
You're not going to believe it.
We're supposed to be rearranged.
But in the envelope is a photograph of Elvis Presley.
Look at that.
There he is.
There he is.
I know what you're thinking.
I know what you're thinking.
That's not Elvis, but come on, look at that pelvis.
I know you're thinking that's not Elvis, but come on, look at that pelvis.
Now, this is my funeral material, Adam, for when I get booked for the gig.
Obviously, it'd be better if I turned it around and showed you Elvis on the back.
I can't do it, but it would be better.
You might look like that.
Come on, be fair.
Only one picture in the envelope.
It's John Denver.
And you went back two as well then?
Yeah.
What would have happened?
This has done my head in.
You've had to gone back three.
And you wouldn't have gone back two because it wouldn't have changed.
But you've done my head in there.
Oh, sorry, Cal.
That's an iPad.
He just loads it up.
He just gets a picture ready.
That's impressive.
Tricks. Amazing. Thanks, fellas ready. That's impressive. Tricks.
Amazing.
Thanks, fellas.
It's done my head in.
Who's the comic that you look up to the most?
Who's the one,
because we've all got our favourite comics,
you've got your favourite comics,
but who's the magician?
Can I hear who your favourites are,
just briefly,
just so I can make up one that's just as cool?
No, but is there...
Is there a magician that sort of does the same thing?
You know, whenever you're thinking about magic and comedy,
it's Cooper.
Everyone always talks about Tommy Cooper.
And, like, when I was a kid, he was still on TV,
even though, you know, he was dead at the time
and it was, like, reruns and stuff.
And I think if you're going to combine magic with comedy,
I don't think anyone's really done it better than him, you know?
Even though it always kind of went wrong and that was his shtick. pine magic with with comedy i don't think anyone's really done it better than him you know even though
it always kind of went wrong and that was his shtick and when i do it i try and have it go right
but isn't that an amazing skill to make it go wrong on purpose yeah absolutely and what's great
about him is if you watch like as i've done like the same trick in different performances you know
over many years it goes wrong in the same. It goes wrong in exactly the same way.
And the script is almost exactly the same,
like the script of it going wrong.
Yeah.
Because he was just, he was meticulous.
He really was.
I used to watch it with my granddad.
I used to watch it with my granddad.
He'd go, he's a good magician because,
like, he can make it go wrong.
He'd have to be a good magician to constantly do that.
Yeah, exactly.
I used to watch them all with my granddad.
He used to love it so much.
And sometimes it went right as well. And he used that kind of sparingly you know when the trick actually went
right and it sort of surprised the audience and got a big reaction or whatever but much more
entertaining when it goes wrong for him i think yeah uh so yeah probably cooper i'd say who's the
goat magician is it is it copperfield he's the one like the biggest one i know he's certainly
the most one i would say probably the most successful and the richest um for me personally when i was a kid like pen and
teller had a a series way before foolers on channel four called the unpleasant world of
pen and teller which was really good but i think you know david blaine's a bit of a figure of fun
now but when that first street magic special he did came on telly uh which was the first time you
sort of see magician like
walking up to people doing amazing things and what was really smart was at the end of the trick
like the camera just went to them like for their reaction and like let the magic just kind of sink
in and you just sort of saw that and that was revolutionary you know so he's like he's pretty
up there too yeah i'm a big fan of it all i used to watch that all the time the mass magician all
the time yeah um even like it was for more for children but stephen mulhern used to do stuff
yeah more targeted the kids on the telly i've always loved it i was made up when you get a
chance to go and see pete just go and watch pete firman do do what he does it's fucking amazing i
remember you were in the room next to me in edinburgh in 2008 and you started about 20
minutes before me right so my audience maybe 15 minutes before me so my audience had to wait in
a small queue while your audience were already enjoying your show 15 to 20 minutes in right a
very intimidating sound to hear through you know the fake walls of an edinburgh venue that have been put up maybe four weeks before yeah just people going
and then i walk away hello how are you my name's dad it's just it's i remember that yeah that was
a really damp i mean they're all damp but that was a particularly damp, dingy venue.
With the underbelly,
wasn't it?
that was the underbelly that really felt like
you were getting black lung
or whatever it was.
Absolutely,
yeah.
Yeah,
my,
my suit,
I was doing it
in a three-piece suit that year.
It never dried out.
It got like,
wet through the first night
and never dried
for the whole of the month.
The following day,
just putting on this like,
damp shirt
and damp suit.
Oh, grim.
Has it ever gone wrong on like a big scale?
Your trick just hasn't worked and you've gone, right, let's move on.
I've done that.
If it's gone, if it's, you know,
I sort of sidestep and then go into something else.
But the thing about tricks is
like you never usually set up
what's going to happen at the top of it.
So if something goes wrong halfway through,
you can sort of change it a little bit
and sidestep and try and get out of it you know
yes you're constantly on your feet going oh shit yeah yeah you're sort of on your toe it's a little
bit like stand-up you know if they're not going for it you fucking go into another routine you
get held also and disrupts a routine you can just be like oh is you've got to step yeah it's the
other bit that makes this one more question because i just i might never get to ask the magic conventions
where people go and trade tricks and yeah it's do do people actually perform at those and have
you done that because i feel like that'd be a special type of insane like that's basically doing
comedy just to comics almost yeah i i i think the last convention that i went to was probably about
15 years ago i tend to sort of avoid them because magic by and large is a lot of people that do it
it's like you know amateurs really and that's fine you know it's a great hobby you know and
they're into it and the whole magic convention thing is a way for people that come up with magic
tricks to make money by selling them to these amateurs or whatever so there's not a great deal
but you're actually coming up with your tricks so there's
no trading of them well no i mean i i do do some stuff that was invented by other people but you
always try and put your old spin on it you know what i mean um but yeah the idea of you're quite
right like doing magic for other magicians would just be yeah imagine doing you know comedy for a
room full of stand-ups oh yeah it's usually back's usually, back in the day when I did Edinburgh,
the preview nights where you hadn't sold many tickets
and there'd maybe be like 15, 20 in
and they'd include some of your flyers maybe
and comics who are coming to support.
And it's one of those ones where you're like,
oh, this is, I've just got to make the most of this.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And usually people are quite generous with it,
but it's not the best audience, is it?
At a magic convention, it might be a lot of magicians that aren't there to support you in
fact they're there to sort of see you cock up they want to see you fail do you know what i mean
it's that sort of thing as well how do you how do you work with a trick do you get like the end
then work backwards yeah a little bit yeah sort of like uh like a mad idea like i read this uh in
this old magic book back in the early part of the 20th century
there used to be this fairly common trick where the magician would borrow a hat from a gentleman
in the audience top hat probably something like that and uh like put ingredients in there crack
an egg in their flour milk or whatever oh no his hat's ruined or whatever and then like a cake
would end up out of the hat and the hat would be like unharmed. So I read that in the book and I'm like, that's a great thing, you know, because it's funny because everyone thinks you like knacker in a fella's hat or whatever.
But not many people, I mean, maybe, you know, you two are wearing hats, but you know what I mean?
It's you can't guarantee someone's going to have a hat in the audience.
So I thought, well, everyone's going to have a shoe.
So I do the same thing, but I borrow a shoe from a guy in the audience and i crack an egg and pour a half a pint of milk in there and flour and blah blah
blah and then a little cupcake comes out at the end and what happens if that one goes wrong halfway
through he's going to clinkers he's going to clarks that's what happens that's a hard one to
yeah he's got eggs in your shoes yeah yeah yeah the funniest
thing that happened to me it wasn't that edinburgh was the year before my first edinburgh uh 2007
i did this trick and back then i was i was still doing like the nail in the face and i used to do
a thing where i put uh skewers through my arms and it was it was all that kind of gross stuff
and i did this thing where i apparently dropped a mouse into a food processor still on
youtube if if anyone wants to see it and obviously it's a trick right but it looked really good
so a mouse gets dropped in and you know whatever anyway one edinburgh show this lady like gets
really upset really really upset and i think she'd had a few or whatever storms the stage she's all
you know up in my grill like pointing at me how can you do that blah blah blah blah blah security
you will know where to be seen so i say i don't know what you're so concerned about they
only cost three quid and got a big laugh from the audience she went mental luckily at that point the
door staff were in and managed to cart her out but that's yeah when you're dealing i mean i in my show
i get people up on stage all the time and you never know what they're going to do do you know
what i mean?
So whenever you've got your public involved,
it's kind of anything can happen really.
Choppy waters.
Choppy waters, exactly.
You're never interested in the David Blaine stuff he does now?
He does all like the mad shit, like trying to fly and that.
No, I am interested in it.
I think it's great actually.
In fact, I think last year or maybe the year before,
he did like his first proper live shows and uh in them
he's like holding his breath for 12 minutes ever seen the one when he goes with the balloons with
um is it google and he's holding his breath basically in space it's the four things on
youtube oh wow he goes up with balloons the balloons um take him off he's holding his breath
for like 15 minutes or something stupid and then his doubloons pop and he comes back to earth yeah i mean he he trains and does all that stuff you
know he does a thing where he like puts a pretty much like an ice pick through his hand and it's
similar to the yeah dealing the first thing that that you know you can do it and avoid
important stuff but who wants to try that you know what i mean you slip in a vein and it's
you know pissing blood or whatever I mean it's just
but yeah I think he's fantastic
I would love to see
his live show actually
yeah he's properly
not really magic is it
it's just sort of
stunts
it's endurance isn't it
like underwater
and freezing
and under
like when he didn't eat
in the box
remember that
yeah
down by the Thames
he's an illusionist
isn't he
that's
yeah he's just basically
pushing his body to the edge
in all possible ways
isn't he yeah and I think some of them you to the edge in all possible ways, isn't he?
Yeah, and I think some of them you're not sure,
and I think that's cool.
You know, the fact that is it a trick?
Is it not a trick?
It sort of blurs the lines a little bit,
and that's interesting, I think.
Yeah.
When he was in that box,
I seen him have a little curly-whirly at one point.
Only you?
It was like... I'm not going to ruin it for everyone.
You're dead sound for not saying it.
You know what I mean? How did he do that?
Cut that out, by the way.
Adam's in the magic set.
He doesn't want to text off Dave.
I'll do that.
I'll put it in just like that.
For them to cough.
He's mad for Curly Whirlies, David Bowie.
Curly Whirlies!
And if I see him now, what else, you know, what else did I miss?
Because I didn't watch all of it.
They're easy to hide up a sleeve, aren't they, Curly Whirlies?
I'm sure it's a full burrito.
No, I'm not.
I'm not.
I'm not.
I'm not.
I'm not.
I'm not.
I'm not. I'm not. I'm? Because I didn't watch all of it.
They're easy to hide up a sleeve,
aren't they, Curly Whirlies?
I'm sure it's a full bonito.
No one else is watching.
Didn't someone send like a cheeseburger or something?
Yeah, he sent a macchiato on a drone next to it.
But he was full?
Yeah.
He said no.
But that's a Curly Whirlies.
Animal's fucking Curly Whirlies and a bonito. I'm alright. I'm stuffed. animals very curly whirly isn't it buddy so i'm all right
let's have a break let's have a break oh lovely stuff he's leaving on a train. Excited?
Yeah.
Can you see him at?
Yeah.
Have a great time, mate.
Got no flyers.
No flyers?
I've got three flyers starting tomorrow
and flyers that don't arrive till Monday.
So, good that.
Gonna have to figure that out.
The interpretive dance they'll do to get...
Adam Rowe is in.
Adam Rowe.
Maybe you could get them to write your name and Sharpie on their bodies
and just be topless on the Royal Mile.
Great idea.
And not stand out, because the Royal Mile is absolute batshit.
Luckily, Friday and Saturday are sold out,
and tomorrow is like 75% sold out.
So it's going to be fine.
Have you spent a fortune on big posters?
I haven't got any.
So you're just relying on the flyers?
This is our poster.
Yeah, this is our poster.
Right, yeah, yeah, of course.
No posters, be arsed with that.
You know what I mean?
Just get too much admin.
I thought it would be a lot of admin to order flyers,
but it took me exactly seven minutes yesterday.
And I've been putting that off for a week.
Otherwise I'd have them, but it took me exactly seven minutes yesterday. And I've been putting that off for a week.
Otherwise, I'd have them.
But I haven't.
Wow.
The thing is, though,
if I had ordered them,
I would have to drive to Edinburgh.
So if anything, it's worked well.
Could have got them delivered to Edinburgh.
Yeah, which I have now done.
But if I'd have ordered them last week,
I'd have ordered them to mine.
Yeah.
Because I thought it was driving.
But I'm now not.
You know what I mean?
So it's worked out well, if anything sometimes my negligence of uh admin stuff actually you know
it all comes up millhouse millhouse being me yeah you're going on tour pete yes i am pete's on tour
show's called trick talk oh do we get that guys yeah but it's spelt ticked? But it's spelt TikTok. Go on. No, it's spelt TikTok. Oh, yeah, sorry.
Without the C.
Just the K.
Oh, like the app.
Yo!
Nothing gets past this, lad.
He's fast.
Sharp as a tack.
Yes, starts in September, 1st of September.
Very excited about it.
When's your first date?
First date's Crawley, the Hoth.
Oh, I love the Hoth.
Little studio room in the back.
Yeah, it's nice. And thenth oh i love the studio room in the back yeah yeah it's nice
and uh then like cambridge and everywhere else and places in the north and everywhere yeah where
do we get tickets get tickets from my website pete firman.co.uk firman is f-i-r-m-a-n.co.uk
i love it when people flirt with that camera. It's a really... How does you feel?
You feel like you've got it when you're plugging.
Do you know what I mean?
It is.
If you've got tickets to my Nottingham show
on October the 22nd of October,
it is no more.
The Nottingham Glee is dead forever.
So we've moved it to Sunday,
October the 15th at Metronome.
Check your emails or email the Glee or the Metronome
and we'll get you sorted. We're just
moving everyone over to that date. So that's a bit
of excitement, isn't it? Everyone else,
down there in gal.com. Adam has been booked
for the Glee's funeral, so that's...
Yeah, yeah. To do magic.
He's bringing it back. He's reviving the act.
He's bringing it back. Talking about little
annoyances, like losing your venue,
we're doing little annoyances
because you don't love all of the symbol pleasures but i feel like little annoyances i've got so many
of my own that i think they'll just spill out of me if if we get going i mean so we started
sorry i've interrupted but we started a feature as you always do yeah we started in the future
and it was too positive so now we're just we've twisted. We did. We started it in the future. And it was too positive.
So now we've just twisted it negative,
haven't we?
That was in the future.
It was what?
No, we did it on the
Sean Moller episode.
Yeah, you did.
We didn't have a name
of it though.
We've got a new feature piece.
It's things that piss you off
but just,
you know those little things
that shouldn't piss you off?
Yeah.
Like an example I use is
you get in a lift,
you're going to the 13th floor.
Yeah.
Right? Someone gets in the lift with you and going to the 13th floor. Yeah. Right?
Someone gets in the lift with you
and they go to the first floor.
Doesn't that just do your fucking head in?
Don't you just like fucking walk,
you fat twat?
You know what I mean?
Is that exactly how you do it?
I'm not sure I'd have that reaction,
but yeah,
it is slightly annoying.
I want to eat you in a cage.
Yeah.
Just like little things like,
just missing the traffic lights.
Yeah.
And it's red and you're like,
the guy in front of you
gets through
but you just don't
yeah
what annoys me
when they slow
too much in front
and they sort of stop
just as it's gone to amber
they could have gone
through the amber
we could have all got through
yeah
that's worse yeah
when someone's just like
oh I'm not in any rush
where I am
you fucking knobhead
that sort of vibe Jessones has got one okay
when you try to put your seat belt on and it keeps stopping even when you're not pulling that hard
it just does the weird i kind of like that yeah i feel i know what you mean by that i kind of
weirdly like that like like sometimes when i'm in a car you pull it tight pull it and then like
push my chest against it.
I do that.
It's weird, isn't it?
Oh, hang on, when it's already plugged in.
Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
Just to feel the-
Yeah, and you're like,
lean against it.
And I'll lock it.
And then I'll just like rub myself on it.
I do that, bro.
It's a simple pleasure.
Like this, you go and then you go.
I know it's mad, but I'm so glad
I'm not the only one who does that.
I do it.
Do you do it?
Yeah. I'll tighten it dead tight around myself. But no. Does it feel like a cuddle? mad but i'm so glad i'm not the only one who does that i do it and sometimes you do it yeah i'll
tighten it down tight around myself but no but it feel like a cuddle yeah it does put it around
your neck but when you're in a rush and you're trying to get it down quickly that is the worst
that's that is a that is a fucking annoying that's just someone who needs a lesson a lesson
a lesson thanks john patience that was Lesson in patience. Nathan Bryan
says, when you're at the tills and you're
only buying like a pint of milk,
but some Karen in front of you won't let you go before
her with a monthly big shop.
I don't get annoyed with that because,
do you know what? Honestly, I could
have seven trolleys full of stuff
and there could be someone behind me buying
a marker pen and then not going
in front of me. Of course they're not.
Go to self-checkout, fuck off.
It's what's for.
That doesn't annoy me because I feel like when I'm there,
I'm just like, yeah, they were first.
My only worry there is you've got, say, a basket full
and someone's got, I don't know, some Tic Tacs,
and you're like, oh, you know what, you go next.
And then the guy behind them is going,
and they pull a trolley out and go, eh.
No, the guy behind them's got a Kit Kat,
and they're like
well I'm just you know
where do you end it
in traffic if there's that position
where you can let someone through
I'm not letting everyone go
I've been sound I'm going
it's a zip isn't it
it's one and one and one and one
I will never let that but when they let me
I'm like you're lovely but I'm never that lovely if but when they let me, I'm like, you're lovely. Yeah. But I'm never that lovely.
If someone turns around to me
and goes,
do you want to go first?
I do go,
do you know what?
Nice one.
And in my head,
I'm thinking,
I'd have never done that for you.
Checks out.
You could literally go,
lad,
I'm buying this milk,
but my wife's literally
giving birth right now
and I'd be like,
should have fucking planned this.
Anita says,
off the milk.
Minor annoyance.
I don't know why he's buying milk on the way
Anita says
minor annoyance
delivery drivers
that don't do
don't have their phone ready
to take the picture
when you answer the door
so you have to stand there
posing with your parcel
like a cunt for 20 seconds
yes
I hate that
I just
I'm a bit over all this,
like,
I just think the signing thing's annoying.
I live in a high rise building
and they put my parcels in me Rens box,
so I don't have to deal with that.
Mr. Rowe,
Mr. Rowe,
another package has come for you,
Mr. Rowe.
That guy.
He works downstairs,
doesn't he?
You met Alan,
yeah?
Yeah,
yeah,
Alan.
I'm from Duffy as well.
Yeah,
that guy.
He's a sound guy,
that guy.
Rich says
people who add salt
to their food
without even tasting it
fuck off
shut up Rich
fuck off
shut up
everything
because
because right
do you know why
if it doesn't need it
for my taste
my taste is salty
I like a salty meal
right
sodium
if
if there was already
so much salt in it that it
was to my taste, everyone else would be
sending theirs back because it would be too salty
for them. So I know mine needs salt
otherwise the rest of the restaurant would be going,
oh God! And sending it back.
I remember you made noodles in front of me
once and you put salt and pepper
on it and I went... I know exactly what you said.
Can I say it? Yeah. He said, if I was
trying to ruin your dinner for a laugh
I wouldn't have put
that much stuff in it
fuck off
I've not seen you
go super sodium
I haven't seen you salt
I do a good amount of salt
Jack Finnegan
puts more salt on than me
he's the only person
I've ever seen who does though
do you pepper your nuggets
Jack looks like it though
look at that man
you should salt
pepper your nuggets
he looks like a man
who loves salt
peppering your nuggets is wild to me.
Have you done it?
What's your condiment of choice?
I like salt, but you know who's very liberal with the salt?
It's the guy in the chippy.
When you say you want salt and vinegar,
it's like he's there for half an hour.
They never put enough on for me.
Really?
And also, when they go, do you want salt and vinegar?
I say, no, I want vinegar and salt.
Because...
Vinegar first. Yeah, because if you put salt on and then I say, no, I want vinegar and salt. Because... Vinegar first.
Yeah, because if you put salt on and then put vinegar on it,
the vinegar washes the salt away.
If you put the vinegar on first, the salt sticks to the vinegar.
This is a lad who knows the chippy.
But can I say this?
No, no, no, vinegar and salt.
Can I just say this?
At Maccy D's...
Sorry.
Mickey Duck Ducks.
At Mickey Duck Ducks.
McDonald's. Do you have a shortening for it in Middlesbrough? Maccy D's, I just said. Thank you! Just stop at Maccy D's. Sorry. Mickey Duck Ducks. Mickey Duck Ducks. McDonald's.
Do you have a shortening for it in Middlesbrough?
Maccy D's, I just said.
Thank you!
Just stop at Maccy's?
Yeah, fucking Maccy.
At Maccy.
At Mac's.
They don't put enough salt on anymore.
But then again, I think,
yeah, is that just,
you ask for salt?
It's for everyone's flavours.
Yeah.
You can add, you can't take away. And then you go, can I get some salt?'s flavours yeah you can add and then you go
can I get some salt
and they give you
58 sachets
like that
of all of them
I love that word
you can throw them away
sachet
it's a lovely word
that was a good one
Steve T
cunts who pick up
or correct
how you pronounce
things differently

for you
this is as well
oh come on

You've just said
Micky D.D.
Duck Ducks
to him.
Micky Duck Ducks

mispronunciation

saying a stupid
way.
Or how he says
things.
No you

mispronounce
something.
You are a
right pedant.
If I said
Aphrodisiac
you'd be like
oh it's
Aphrodisiac.
Yeah I make it
correct.
What's wrong
with that?
It's annoying
is what he's
saying.
So pedantic.
It is annoying that though isn't it? And your little wrong with that? It's annoying. It's what he's saying. So pedantic. It is annoying, that though, innit?
And your little grammar prick as well on the internet.
Oh, your typo makes this all invalid.
Shut up.
I'm sorry for being right.

Where it just goes... What the fuck? You haven't got a soft close toilet seat? Yeah, what the fuck is soft close? Soft close toilet. Where you can let the toilet seat drop and it doesn't. Where it just goes.
What the fuck?
You haven't got a soft close toilet seat.
Yeah, what the fuck?
Let me ring Laura.
What?
I want a soft close toilet seat.
Our toilet seat's got a remote control. So you can just be like that and it goes.
Whoa.
Yeah, it's just one of those that just, like, it just, it won't just.
Yeah.
Your toilet seat will just go.
As a gentleman, it's very handy.
Yeah.
You know, to drop the toilet seat,
you just can flick it and walk away.
You're done.
I'm throwing it out there.
Do you put the toilet seat up
to have a piss?
Yeah,
I do.
Do you put the toilet seat up
to have a piss?
It depends how good
I'm feeling with my aim.
If it's in the morning,
no,
because I'm like,
oh.
Yeah,
in the morning,
like,
honestly,
the ceiling's in danger.
To be honest with you.
But like, if I'm having a good cock day,
you know when you've got, like, a bit of weight in your dick?
Yeah.
That's when my aim's at its best.
Yeah.
So when I've got a...
Like, I'm not erect, but I'm having a good cock day.
Oh, yeah.
Honestly, whatever state I find the toilet seat in,
I can just...
It doesn't matter.
I always have that.
You could honestly make it the size of, like, that,
and I'd nail it.
Do you lean as you're finishing?
Yeah.
So you're pissing and you just go.
You're leaning into it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like Michael Jackson.
Oh my God.
That's what he was doing.
You've been hit man.
Yeah, Dan, our toilet's got a remote control.
Shut up about your fucking toilet.
How good's that?
Konnichiwa.
It's got a remote control.
Tom Lees says,
little annoyances,
bus drivers in general,
miserable, annoying cunts.
Yeah.
I haven't dealt with one for years.
Yeah.
But back, yeah.
They feel like they are part of national security bus drivers.
If they've driven three yards past the bus stop
and you go,
mate, can you let me on?
Like, I can't, lad.
Been lad.
I'll find out and kill us all.
It's fucking arseholes.
That's the worry.
It's ISIS.
Here's a £20 note.
And, oh, he wants all my family to die.
What is this?
Contactless since you've been on the bus now.
You've got change.
Yeah, and I haven't been on the bus
since contactless got brought in.
Rental.
I genuinely haven't.
It's a change, man.
I drive past the bus I used to run for.
That's tying 10 per one, Seth. rental I genuinely haven't I drive past the bus I used to run for as Tiny Temper once said
I reckon he said that
more than once
with the amount of gigs he does
can I add one Dan
if you were expecting
Tiny Temper
to be referenced
in this show
I'm impressed
I think
hotels that have
poor water pressure
should be
removed from
the country.
Bombed?
Yeah, bombed.
Don't the controlled
explode?
Yeah.
Like a shower
that's just like a child
drooling on you.
Yeah.
Can I add to that?
Hotels that don't have
plugs next to the bed
on either side.
Also that.
And a simple pleasure
is when they do.
Yeah.
Hotels where you can't
control the temperature
in the room whatsoever.
It's like Arctic
or volcanic.
We literally just had one
a couple of weeks ago in Leeds. Absol piece of shit yeah yeah yeah yeah i don't know
how i've got used to that i don't have that in my house and that wasn't in a hotel if i don't have
aircon in my house but in the hotel i was like what is this where are we yeah the hoxton where
to rico the hoxton hotels for climate control are unparalleled.
Yeah.
You can literally, like, it's like it can read your mind.
Like, sometimes I'm like, I press it and it's like I whisper to it.
There's no half degrees, but I just want it half a degree higher
because one would be too much.
And it's like, got you, bro.
Yeah, it has.
Do you know, Laura's going to London in a couple of weeks
and she priced up the Hoxton and I told her to fuck off.
I'd expect it to be pretty good on temperature.
She hasn't got my discount code, has she?
Oh, another one.
Hey, tell me after.
I've got a discount code off someone who used to work there.
Shut up.
It's up to 40% off.
That's why I get to use the Hoxton.
You absolutely.
I wouldn't be able to afford the Hoxton every time.
I go into the store, get 200 quid a night
and pay in a 400 quid hotel
you could get the bus there
save money
can I add to the hotels one
when you get a double room
and it's just two single beds
pushed together
yes
fuck them
yeah
fuck them
yeah
the hotel we
when we were away in Tenerife
was incredibly hard
to get the pressure down
on the shower
like if you turned it on
yeah
it was like
pressure washing.
Oh, I liked that.
Yeah, I liked that.
I like it sometimes,
but I want to be able to control it.
I like the hurdy.
But two single beds.
Two single beds.
Fuck off.
Not acceptable.
No.
Because you're falling in the gap.
Yeah.
And then you just end up sleeping on one
and what's the point in having it then?
No, please.
And put 20 sockets everywhere.
I want to be able to put my phone in
wherever I am.
And hair dryers.
Fuck off.
I hate hotels.
Hotel hair dryers
is another one.
I don't know what's happened.
I don't know what
global conspiracy
there's been amongst hotels
where they've gone,
right, look,
obviously there's going to be
some of us who are going
to be five stars,
some will be four,
some will be three,
some will be two,
and hello to the ones.
But no matter who we are,
let's all agree right now
that none of us
are ever going to have
a hairdryer
that is capable of drying hair
you haven't been to Venice
have you?
no
you're not allowed to take
hairdryers into hotels
because the fire risk in Venice
is like a big issue
because everything's so close
the hairdryers in Venice
it took me half an hour
to dry my hair
I'd just take my
hairdryer in
I'd just
I'd break the law
I need my hairdryer venice burns down it wouldn't
burn down nobody no but if it did yeah he'd be like what hair time have you got what can i do
it's to do with like the voltage and stuff they just want to control all the
yeah it's a conspiracy they're just lying out also if it starts to fight there's water everywhere
put it out pathetic i think it's just it's a fight, there's water everywhere. Put it out. Pathetic. I think it's just that it spreads very quick
as everything's close together.
Oh yeah, cool.
That was the, you know, that's true.
Right.
Hotel rooms are shit.
I think that's true.
That's the takeaway.
I love it though.
Who's sealing the showers?
The shower always leaks.
You know, you see that sort of puddle appearing
on the floor where you're about to step out to
in a moment.
All that mucky.
Little fucking shitty shower curtain with a gap down the middle of it. Yeah. Fuck off. sort of puddle appearing on the floor where you're about to step out to in a moment. All that mucky...
Little fucking shitty chalice
with a gap down the middle of it.
Yeah.
Fuck off.
And the fucking ironing board,
that stinks of shit
and it's like foam and it fucking...
I also don't like how tight they make the bed.
Oh yeah, can we just say that?
Every hotel in the world,
just buy some duvets.
Just buy an actual quilt that isn't tucked into
the bed with an actual quilt cover on it like with buttons on the bottom instead of it just
because they're all like butties do you know what i mean though like hotel bed sheets like butties
it's got like the sheet and the quilt and then another sheet but none of them are connected to
each other yeah it's just like a sandwich i don't want to sleep in a sandwich. Also, while we're here,
normal size pillows, please.
Because the long, thin ones,
trying to look fancy,
don't work.
And the huge, massive ones
are too big.
Just because normal pillows
that humans use.
What about the decoration pillows
that are on the bed?
Fuck them.
You just chuck them on the floor.
I like them.
I like a bit of pizzazz.
I'm not going to lie to you.
I like a bit of pizzazz. When I walk to lie to you I like a bit of pizzazz
when I walk in
and the hotel looks
like they've made an effie
I don't mind that
as long as under that
is a functional pillow
my biggest simple pleasure
in a hotel room
is when they've got
spare pillows
in the wardrobe
yeah
fucking love that
what?
marty pillow
very good
my marty pillow
is in the wardrobe
what a hotel
how many times has that happened to you? never I have walked in and there's been pictures Very good. My Marty Pella was in the wardrobe. What a hotel this is.
How many times has that happened to you?
Never.
I have walked in and there's been pictures of Les Dennis on the bed though, hasn't there, Adam?
Yeah.
That isn't even a joke, Pete.
That's just totally true.
Really?
Yeah.
Explain.
Adam can.
It's less of a magic trick,
more of a commitment to printing.
Okay.
I just,
Carl was my tour manager last year.
Right.
And every time we had our own hotel room
and we went and shared them one,
I would just request that in his room
there was a picture of Les Dennis on the bed.
And I would always say we've booked,
I've booked me mate tickets for his birthday
to go to an audience with Les Dennis
and this is how I'm going to tell him.
Can you just print a picture of Les Dennis
and put it on the bed?
Every now and again,
you might like have a good night
or like enjoy Les.
Wasn't one Gary Barlow one of them as well?
I'm sure.
I'm sure. I did mix it up a couple of times
brilliant
I was walking
next to you
I'm overdoing Les
let's give Gary
a run out
shall we do some
other words
you know
that's why we named
the podcast
isn't it
been great
having you Pete
nice to
nice to see you
guys
thanks for having me
this is from Tommy Dorsey
I'm not just pausing
There's music going on
I know it looks mental
It'd take a while to read
Jingle
Tommy Dorsey says
Karaoke scrap
Hi Lids
Have a word with my mate Adam
He set his house on fire
By accidentally putting
The cardboard bottom
On his frozen pizza
Into the oven
We went to this karaoke bar
And jokingly Put him down to sing
we didn't start the fire by billy joel when his name was announced he didn't take it well and
ended up having a soft scrap with one of our mates tell him to give his head a shake and that he's a
daft cunt who can't cook a pizza yeah that's from tommy dorsey if any of like that is such gentle
banter it's great as well. It's only funny.
Yeah.
If you can't take that,
have you got a group of mates, Pete,
that you have known like most of your life?
Yeah, yeah.
And it's like really harsh banter and stuff.
Of course it is. Yeah, yeah, of course it is.
Are they the boys from Millsborough?
If you make such a joke,
I'm fine.
It never is the end of it.
Sign up for karaoke.
I'll be sending fire engines to his house every five minutes.
Every five? I'm a Venetian hair dryer. Yes. I'd be sending fire engines to his house every five minutes every five
I'm a Venetian hair dryer
yes
what?
some stars on them
that's not funny is it
because Venice is near
an open body of water
and we don't laugh about that
yeah just
does he need to be her mate?
is he up to it?
is he
he'd be in the bit
he wouldn't last
like he would not have lasted with our school group.
No, he'd get bastard. At all.
What's your karaoke song, Pete? Sorry?
What's your karaoke song? Oh, I would stay
well away from that.
Why, are you a performer? You're not into it now? No,
no, no, not into that at all. Do you enjoy
it though? No.
Not even like a private one with your friend just in a room?
No, idea of hell.
Just pub and a pie, please.
That's my idea of heaven.
I'm just a northern lad who does magic around the world.
Exactly.
Except in America.
I'm just a classic borough boy.
Just a pint and a pie, international travel,
and fame from magic.
Apart from in America, they're gobshite.
Okay, then go to pie.
Go to pie.
Well, I'm a meat eater,
but I am partial to a cheese and onion pie.
Short crust pastry,
lashings of gravy.
I hope that sort of...
A steak pie is just the pie goat.
It's so...
Steak pie.
Yeah.
You can't fuck with a steak pie when it comes to pies.
You like the kidney, don't you?
Steak and kidney.
Steak, kidney, liver.
Tongue. Tongue pie. Tongue pie. That's what you kidney, don't you? Steak and kidney. Steak, kidney, liver. Tongue.
Tongue pie?
Tongue pie.
That's what you might have called it.
Dan's a fussy eater.
Dan's never had an egg.
Have you had a pie?
You know what?
I know Dan's a fussy eater
because in Edinburgh,
when we went for food,
I took you to a Chinese buffet.
Do you remember this?
Near the station.
Near the station.
Why?
And I could tell
that you just
were not into this at all
where's the turkey dinosaurs
exactly
and you
and it was like
where's the turkey dinosaurs
nachos mate
they were Chinese
turkey dinosaurs
it was 15 quid
all you could eat
so I was like
tucking in
and Dan's like
got virtually nothing
on his plate
and I just thought
god this was clearly
a bad option for him
yeah buffets are not your
child do you like the carveny you paid for that thank you mate did I yeah you were very generous And I just thought, God, this was clearly a bad option for him. Yeah, buffets are not your... Child.
Do you like the carverie?
You paid for that.
Thank you, mate.
Did I?
Yeah, you were very generous.
Carly had his first roast in here with us at Christmas.
Oh, shit, you don't like carveries, do you?
You're mad, you...
He tried gammon,
and it was like someone had, like,
given him a new lease of life.
He's like, I'm going to have some more gammon.
He's never had an egg.
Do you know, I had a gammon Sunday roast.
I've had more gammon this year.
gammon Sunday roast.
I've had more gammon this year.
I thought when it was being cooked
the lamb was a bit pink.
The lamb's a bit pink in it.
That's the gammon that does.
Dan can count on one hand how many gammons
he's eaten. That's wild.
Imagine if I said
to you
for a billion pounds
you've got to
accurately tell me
how many times
you've ate gamin
I'd be dead
I'm a dead
I'm a dead
I'm a killer
you're killing me
as the other one
gets shot
there was no jeopardy
it's just you don't
win the money
I killed myself
rather than even
try and answer that
apple pie anyone oh cherry pie pies have you had a pie if you put fruit in them have you had a have
you had a savory pie in your life you like steak no yeah let him answer it go on you had a savory
pie in your life no you've had a chippy a chippy pie? A chippy pie? A steak and kidney pie
from Chippy?
I've had other pies.
Salted caramel and apple.
Banoffee.
But you like steak?
Yeah, but I like steak
where I can see it.
Don't like it hiding.
On a plate.
Fucking potty.
You're going to have to
see them.
What's happening with the pie?
I don't know.
What's in there with the steak?
What kind of pie is this?
Gravy and all the bits of...
Oh, in a pie?
Well, I thought you put gravy on a pie.
Is the gravy in a pie?
It can be in as well, yeah, yeah.
Fuck off, gravy.
Too much gravy, that.
I don't trust gravy.
Why does it need to be in and out?
You would jizz your pants if you had a steak pie.
All right, cool.
We'll do it.
And it's so
unoffensive
like there's nothing in it
that you could possibly
not like
can I have hot sauce
and onion rings with it
yeah
and you can have
whatever you want
you can have that
with anything
right
you can have a gazebo
a deja vu
whatever you want
well that is a
niche one
well done sir
two pints, innit?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That was a...
Do you know what?
And I would have missed it,
but it was the deja vu was too creative in the moment.
I was like, oh, that's a turn of phrase.
Am I having deja vu?
You can have whatever you...
That's a niche one.
All right, I'll have a pie.
You'll genuinely... It's not even like a risky one. This, I'll have a pie. Peter's never had an egg.
It's not even like a risky one.
A bean?
An egg?
He's never had these things?
This is my Japanese toilet.
I have had egg.
I knew you were picky.
I didn't know you were that picky.
Twice.
He's had egg twice.
One of them was with us
and we made him eat it.
What kind of egg?
How was it done?
It doesn't matter, does it?
It does.
It's all fucking...
Was it runny?
Was it hard?
Oh, it can't be runny scrambled
i tried scrambled you'd like you'd like this is my japanese the texture is weird if you've never
had that poached poached is the best all right i'll have egg pie what about quiche you could
sort of combine pie and egg i'd have to try quiche famously but yeah i haven't had quiche
it's a world of discovery
left you know
I've got seven years
left to live
it's going to be exciting
so
I can't wait
to give you a pie
I honestly can't wait
for it
tongue pie
you're going to be like
what have I been
doing all my life
in the morning
can we mush it all up
and make an omelette
that would be spectacular
a bubble and squeak
from a steak pie.
Yeah.
I'd love that to react after eating a pie.
What?
He's never had a...
Have you had a pasty?
No.
What's a pasty?
What?
What?
No.
What's in a pasty?
You might have sausage roll.
Have you had a sausage roll?
No.
What?
Have you had a sauce of dro? No. What? Have you had pastry?
That's the end of the podcast today.
This is ridiculous, Sam.
I know.

It is.
I'm sorry.
Sorry to offend you.

How good pasties are?
Is it cheese pasties?
Yeah.
Yes.
I'd have a cheese pasty.
They're so good.
It's cheese and onion.
I'm not having onion.
What do you mean?
Horrible.
What?
I've never had an onion.

Yeah.
Ask him what he has
on Christmas Day.

You had it the week before.
Yeah.
What do you have
every Christmas
as your Christmas dinner
while your entire family
has their Christmas dinner?
I make my own nachos.
But they're Christmassy nachos.
You know why?
Because I do them
