What's happening lads, before we kick off this week's public episode, it's time to tell you about our Patreon page, patreon.com slash have a word pod.
It is the biggest Patreon in the UK and for good reason because you get so much stuff, starting from just £3 a month going all the way up to a tenner.
And if you go to the £10 tier, you get two free posters sent to you when you sign up. The £3, though, from the baseline Patreon membership, you get all the extra content,
which includes early access
to the video version
of these public episodes.
And you get an extra bonus episode
every single week.
And on top of that,
we give you a Patreon special
every month.
And as soon as you sign up,
you get access
to the entire back catalogue
of all the episodes
and all those specials,
which includes...
We've got the lock-ins.
We've been to Nashville.
We've been to Amsterdam.
We've done ghost hunts.
We've done a car track special.
Oh, it's been amazing.
We've got 40 of these things.
The back catalogue is unreal.
You sign up from £3 a month
and you get hours and hours,
hundreds of hours of content.
We've got a really big Patreon special
coming up at the end of the year.
We're going to India to raise money for Zoe's Place
Baby Hospice,
who do some absolutely
incredible work
for really sick children
and their families,
making it as comfortable
as they can possibly be
when they're going through
the most unimaginable pain.
Zoe's Place,
an unbelievable charity
I've supported
since I was at school,
so has Carl,
and now the podcast
is helping to raise money
by going to India
and cycling 450 kilometers.
Now, we're all doing separate fundraising for this,
but what we've done is we've put Finn's donation link
in the bio of this episode.
Go and donate to Finn's page for us
if you would like to get involved.
Appreciate it.
And on top of that, all of our links
in our social media bios,
but go and give Finn some of your money
if you're looking to donate to someone today
and look forward to the end of the year
and the start of next year
when all the content from the biggest thing we've ever done
will be going out.
And before that, we've got some banging specials coming up.
You do not want to not be a patron over the next few months.
Sign up. Enjoy the episode.
Patreon.com slash have a word pod.
Three quid access to more stuff than you can shake a stick at.
Wag wag leads. You're listening to the funniest podcast
in the game from the heart of Liverpool
with Adam, Dan, Sensei Carl and Finn.
This is the one and only Have A Word.
Brought to you by Manscaped,
the very best products on the market
for below the waist groomer.
Go, Ed. Get on me.
Welcome, welcome, welcome.
Welcome, one and all.
How are we?
I'm good, how are you?
Good, thank you.
Good, thank you.
Had some, enjoyed some racism in the sauna.
Dan's sauna report continues.
It's a Moby album, isn't it?
Why won't the old boys just sit in there and sweat and shut the fuck up?
I don't know.
Talky, talky, racist talky.
Are you telling me there were several old black men
who were bullying you for being white?
Oh, you weren't being racist.
Yeah, I go to an old black man's gym.
That's me.
I go to the Y in the Bronx, you know?
It's not an easy commute.
Is it you and Danny Glover getting your sweat on?
God, I don't know, honestly.
I can't think of who else you'd have picked.
Cosby in my head.
And that motherfucker needs to be sweating.
You want to be in a sauna with him?
Fuck yeah.
You wouldn't be able to stop him.
That's his whole plan.
I'm not usually this sleepy in saunas
you and
Bill Cosby
in the same sauna
though
he'd do his catchphrase
and you'd be like
for sex
I love that
have you seen that video
of Bill Cosby
go on
when he's
he's walking down the road
he's going to court
and he just
he goes
for no reason
have you never seen it
no I
go on
is that his
I've just done it.
Is that his...
He's like walking down the road with him for no reason.
He just throws like a fucking...
To a camera.
He knows the camera's on him.
Yeah, but it doesn't look like he's looking at the camera.
Oh, right, right.
He does constantly look like he's just being asked,
do you want a dessert?
Or do you want to see the dessert menu?
And he's like...
Oh, me naughty, are we?
Rats on me hips. There was an old boy that was talking about um but they weren't being racist to you they were
talking about swimming and honestly absolutely no i don't suffer a lot of racism not living in
you know 99.6 white chester and that's why i live there um we was a. No one was talking about swimming.
He was talking about having his shoulder put back in
by a black dude who worked at the hospital.
And then he was like, very muscly, very muscly.
And that's why they can't swim, you know,
because muscle is heavier than fat.
White women, of course, very good floaters.
I just, out of nowhere.
We're talking about essentially a fucking dislocated shoulder.
And then we were talking about black people not floating way too fast.
The thing is though, that is true, isn't it?
It's bone density, isn't it?
It is a thing.
It's not a lie.
Yeah, but not every black person's
LeBron fucking James.
No, it's not a fact.
There is a fact.
No, but I mean,
but that's the racism, isn't it?
That's the racism.
They're all very athletic and muscly.
No, there's not.
There's fat black guys.
There's fat black women.
Fact.
And they don't, they flow.
They flow dead good, I imagine. I haven't flowed any. black guys there's fat black women fucked and they don't they flow they thought they're good
i imagine i haven't flowed any but it just felt all a bit unnecessary it's ignorant
but i don't think there was any hatred in it you know what i mean yeah well i've edited out how we
started the conversation the term that was used ah it's just a bit much just a bit much. Just a bit much.
Right, okay.
And then we started talking about open water swimming.
What did you...
And a kid next to...
What did you do?
Did you correct these men or were you part of the problem?
I, honestly, I'm not having arguments
with 64-year-old post office workers.
I'm part of the problem.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I just don't...
I'm not...
How do you know you're exing the post office?
Because I hear about
their pensions
every time I go to the sauna
right
they're like
they just sit there
and talk about
who's retiring
who's died
and it's just constant
and the muscular density
of the black community
and then all of a sudden
we're having weird
racial conversations
about swimming
John's retiring
hands on annual leave
and black people
are very muscly
say what
say what about say what you want about
Bill Cosby.
Not a floater.
Go on.
Open water swimming.
Obviously,
this is the summer.
I haven't done this publicly.
Please be careful.
Not publicly.
It was on Patreon.
Thank you, sir.
Be careful.
Need open bodies of water.
You might die.
Yeah.
Carry on.
Then a kid next to me
joined in the conversation,
which is rogue.
Just let them keep talking.
He was like, oh yeah, we go open water swimming.
Idiot.
And I can't do it.
I'm more scared of sharks in British waters, you know,
because you can't see because it's murky water.
I was like, what?
I was like, but there's no, there aren't any sharks.
There was dolphins in the Mersey during Covid
yeah
nature is healing
nature returned
to where it once was
you can see the Taj Mahal
from my fucking brow
yeah
I know
we
I know
I know we
slag off dolphins
but they don't
they don't
mate dolphins
we've
we're always
oh we're always
after dolphins you've got to always oh we're always after dolphins
you've got to be
that's ballsy
it's every
every marine biologist
least favourite animal
the dolphin
why
because they gangry
yes Adam
yes
you delicate touch
yeah because they're
fucking weird
like rapey bullies
aren't they
mallards are rapists
as well aren't they
are they yeah are they are theyists as well, aren't they? Are they?
Yeah.
Are they not just, like, it rough?
Are they birds?
They're ducks, yeah.
The mallard bird.
Yeah.
He was like, I'd be scared of dolphins as well.
If a dolphin swam past me.
Yeah.
So would I.
Dolphins are gentle, like, with humans, though, aren't they?
They only rape each other.
That's what I'm saying.
Otherwise,
there'd be a lot of dying children
who've been through something
really bad.
Yeah,
you probably avoid taking them.
Swimming with rapists
is not how you want to...
Leave that to his next one now.
Before he goes,
he just knocks a mad one out.
Yeah.
Swimming with rapists.
It's Kevin Costner's sequel.
Oh dear. I think it should be known dolphins
are everyone thinks they're dead cute they are we've talked about it before but they're sinister
motherfuckers they are cute they're committing tax fraud tax fraud yeah they won't respect all
the dolphins pronouns they're like that they're really they look like they made out of halloumi
though they look dead squeaky i mean i wouldn't want to touch're really... They look like they made out of halloumi, though. They look dead squeaky.
You know what I mean?
I wouldn't want to touch one.
Why?
They always feel like they look like an audible texture, though.
Every time dolphins come up,
I feel like I've got to bring up that fella on the front row of Hot Water.
Oh, yeah.
Paul Smith said to...
I've told you this before, Defo.
Paul Smith was like...
The dolphin shaver?
Yeah, what do you do for a living?
And he said, I shave dolphins.
And Paul was like, what do you mean? You shave dolphins? Dolphins aren't dolphins. And Paul was like, what do you mean you shave dolphins?
Dolphins aren't hairy.
And he was like, yeah, I'm just class at my job.
Someone said they would have a penguin pick it up at once
because the zoo was near the airport
and the penguins look at the planes and fall over.
That is real, isn't it?
Is it?
Yeah.
I'm pretty sure that is real.
I think he's playing on the fact that, you know,
the penguin biscuits was with
pick up a penguin.
Nice.
Is that true?
Is the penguins near John Lennon International Airport?
The penguins of speak?
No, there's no obviously though.
Obviously Safari Park.
It is absolutely.
That's coming in too low, isn't it?
It's not talked about enough how fucking insane it is that there's not that's coming in too low isn't it if you're you know it's not talked about enough
how fucking insane it is
that there's a safari park
in Knowsley by the way
like there's lions
that live in Knowsley
and no one really brings it up
it's all arsehole
where do you want them
where do you live
the Sahara
no I know but that's not
the desert
put the lions in the desert
they're all dead
and I was
fuck them
we're putting them back I was off them.
We're putting them back.
We're putting them back where they need to be.
In the jungle.
The lions in the desert.
I'm thinking of the Serengeti.
Yeah.
But they shouldn't be in Knowsley, should they?
No.
There shouldn't be fucking monkeys riding fucking elephants around throwing shit at four...
Oh, right.
Okay, so you're...
That's the attic monkeys. Time-travelling monkeys. elephants around throwing shit at four corgis oh right okay so you're bats yeah
monkeys
time travelling
monkeys
so your problem is
that they're just in
captivity
they're in captivity
all together
no like
it's just
it feels a bit mad
that they're in the
north west of England
don't it
like they were never
meant to see
nosely
lions were never
meant to see nosely
that big roundabout
yeah
elephants were never meant to see that yeah that To that big roundabout Yeah Elephants were never meant to see that
Yeah
That's wrong
And they're there
No wonder every time someone drives a Nissan Microdin
The monkeys are fucking ripping the fucking wing mirrors off
Take us home
Get me back to fucking Africa mate
Get me back to the Sahara
They can see the big roundabout in Noseley can they?
Elephants are tall
Right
They probably seen it as they were being driven in.
And they never forget.
Yeah.
A roundabout.
It's all coming together.
Yeah, yeah.
Where do you want them, though?
Obviously, we've got to have
some animals in captivity over here
because they get raised
and there's conservation going on.
There'll also be lions
that were born in Knowsley.
Yeah, totally.
But you can't have them
in the city centre, can you?
No.
It makes sense that they're out
in the countryside.
Countryside? St. Hel makes sense that they're out in the countryside. Countryside?
St. Helens?
There's war lines.
Oh.
It is sort of the countryside, isn't it?
Knowsley, it's the end of the city.
Raw.
Raw.
It's suburbia.
It's not urban, but it's not a countryside.
It's suburbia.
What's after Knowsley?
The end of the map i think
yeah no one's ever been there isn't it just farmland around there no it's like the back
it is though it's not it's in the middle of a fucking council i say basically you get to the
end of liverpool on the m53 you're going out like you know towards liverpool towards manchester
i was literally having the same thought it becomes the M62
junction 7
but then there's
countryside
I guarantee you
he knows the junction
but knows his party bar
I've no fucking idea
oh here we go
that's basically
the countryside
it's fucking
not the countryside
there's farmland
round it
not
not really
there's no farms
in St Helens
there is farms between Liverpool and there's a farm in St Helens there is farms
between Liverpool
and
there's a farm
in Crocky Park
oh
Crocky Park farm
doesn't fucking count
why
because it doesn't
suit your argument
no
because it doesn't
have any fucking
produce
it does
no it doesn't
yes it does
once it's supplying
which Tesco
is being supplied
chicken eggs
two eggs
a fortnight
because they're like
fucking Crocky fucking chickens.
Yazoo's.
They sell Yazoo's in the shop.
Yeah.
Straight from the fucking cow.
Yes.
Yeah.
This cow does banana.
Good little data.
Crocky Park Farm.
Take a girl down and go,
look, there's a fucking pig.
There you go.
Get to ask.
Yeah.
You've wasted your time.
Smell that.
It stinks.
It does stink.
Yeah.
It's a functioning farm.
There's horses and everything.
Yeah.
But it's not the countryside.
Knows you,
Safari Park might as well be
in someone's back garden.
It's fucking tiny.
I thought it was in the middle of nowhere.
No, no.
Like, there's a massive...
Can you not see fields
on either side of it?
No.
You can see houses.
Yeah.
It's just surrounded by houses. There's an estate see houses. Yeah. It's just surrounded by houses.
There's an estate across from it.
But it's literally surrounded by houses,
like fucking Melwood.
Like...
Yeah.
People stand on the bins and see the line.
I'm not having this.
Have you never been?
No, we've got a chest of...
So there's the safari park.
Take the wheels.
And there's the streets.
All right, cool.
So there's the safari park. And what's all this stuff around it? That is the safari park. What is that's the streets all right cool so there's the safari park and
what's all this stuff around it that is the safari what is that all that it was that is that great
that green bit is there any houses there that's fucking loads of tree houses yeah all right no
council tree houses fall into a fucking bit but it is on the edge i mean yeah it is right on the
edge but you're making it out like it's in the middle of a council estate. Well, it's on the edge of a council estate.
Like, this is a council estate.
No, it's not.
It's Prescott.
Yeah.
You're right.
Yeah.
Yeah, Finn's London.
It's right.
What?
I'm on Street View.
Yeah.
There's traffic lights.
There's traffic lights.
What do you mean?
There's, like, houses immediately around it, in the vicinity of it.
There's a big green fucking load of farmland on one side be sick if you could hear lions though in your bed wouldn't
it at night that'd be sick you can't there's probably lion noise on swastikas play that
can i just say as well lions don't do a very satisfying roar you know like the the cinema
roar yeah when you're actually there they're like. When you're actually there, they're like,
Yeah, because they're in Knowsley, they're all depressed.
It's because that lion's getting abused as well.
They're all on fucking Valium, mate, because they're in Knowsley.
Go to Chester and look at the lions.
They're like, oh, they're roaring.
It's like a...
Yeah, I lived in Chester for a year and that's how I sounded.
I don't know how you do it.
These lions have been there their entire lives.
They're on Xanax.
They're just fucking off their head depressed.
That MGM Grand one was in the fucking Serengeti, mate,
with all his boys.
He was getting abused, that one as well.
The Serengeti.
It's just making up places.
In the fucking Masai Mara.
Can you imagine being a born-in lion who lived in Chester?
I was born in Chester, mate.
A lion.
Imagine one getting dropped off from the wild
to a born in,
to an enclosure of like,
you're right,
we've been here for ages.
We're just from round here.
And one's like,
yeah, mate, I've been there.
I've seen the wild.
They're the cock of the fucking lion enclosure
straight away.
It's just a film, isn't it?
Imagine the other way around.
You're bred in captivity.
All you've ever known is Chester
and Chester Zoo.
And then they drop you off
in the Serengeti.
The Serengeti.
Run free.
You know?
And all the liars go,
all right, lads,
what have you been up to?
You have just been dropped off
from Chester.
We're all going for a roar.
And he goes,
roar, roar.
Yeah.
What the fuck?
No one's fucking in,
are they?
No,
even like the guy from Shawshank,
you can't take it.
He's institutionalised.
He wouldn't make it out in the real world.
Brooks.
Yeah.
I don't like it here.
Oh, Brooks.
Why have you mentioned the saddest bit of an already sad film?
But I always think the actor's still alive.
I don't think everything got real fast on the Serengeti.
I always think that after the sad bit in the film,
I was like, the actor just went home that day
and that kind of helps
do you know like
I'm sure I don't know whether we spoke about this recently
in here or whether it was with the lads
I live with but
apparently you know horror films
one of the reasons you never see like
a big name in a horror film
is they want you to be more invested
in it because Because like,
it's all unknown actors
who are getting like
fucking stabbed and stuff.
Then you're like,
oh my God,
I've never seen these guys before.
But if it's just like fucking,
you know,
Denzel Washington,
you're like,
that's not,
like this isn't as scary
because, you know.
I know him.
Yeah.
It's not because they don't make any money.
Yeah, it's partly that as well.
But the realistic casting,
didn't they
do that for the passion of the christ they basically instead of putting a star in it was a
relatively unknown isn't it mel gibson he directed he directed it no it was mel gibson yeah he was
and he was involved in it yeah no but well courtney cox is in scream isn't she but she wasn't huge
huge then was she i don't think scream counts as this because that was like a super mainstream
like he do you mean like all the horrors they are sort of like b movies almost aren't they
uh i wasn't aware of this i've just googled passion of the christ there's a sequel coming
out next year nice jesus 2 jesus 2 there's a sequel It's not really me? No. Set three days after the first one.
Passion of the Christ,
Resurrection,
Chapter 1.
Released 8...
Oh, it's released
around your wedding, Carl.
I'm just going to have to pick.
Is it going to be like
about all the people
chatting about him
after he came back
and fucked off again?
It's going to be about
Peter Paul
and the rest of the boys, isn't it?
That's what it's called.
It's called
The Passion of the Christ 2,
Peter Paul and the rest of the boys, isn't it? That's what it's called. It's called The Passion of Christ 2, Peter, Paul, and the rest of the boys.
That sounds heavy, by the way.
There's loads of disciples, but there's two hard ones.
You just need to know Pete and Paul.
To be fair, Pete and Paul sound like the hard ones.
What are the other disciples?
Judas.
Matthew.
Yeah.
No, these aren't disciples, are they?
Yeah.
John.
Yeah.
Of course.
Luke. Luke. Ah, Luke. Um. Um. disciples are these uh yeah john yeah of course luke luke alu um gav and eddie clint clint eastwood he was one of the disciples yeah judas is an easy remember, isn't it? Judas Iscariot. Pontius Pilate.
He was what?
Mary Magdalene.
God.
Just saying Bible names.
They're all his bros, aren't they?
And she was the one who he fucked.
I don't think Pontius Pilate was.
No.
No, he wasn't the start, though.
He used to go to the outlaws together
and then he was left.
He used to go fucking Mecca bingo.
Yeah.
Not Mecca. Hang on, what did Jesus do then he was like, he used to go fucking Mecca bingo. Yeah. Not Mecca.
Not Mecca.
Hang on.
What did Jesus do when he was resurrected?
I genuinely don't know.
Cause he was obviously,
he was dead,
but then he wasn't there
and he was like,
why?
He was seen in different parts of Jerusalem,
wasn't he?
Yeah.
For days,
like doing shit.
Getting on it.
Yeah.
Like,
so they checked the cave
and he's just
gone
dusted
right
and then
for the next few days
a few of the people
who wrote the gospels
were like
hang on
350 years later
fucking hell
like
that's Jesus there
in Tesco
yeah
yeah yeah
and then they checked
the receipt and was like that is his club card number so def Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then they checked the receipt
and it was like,
that is his club card number.
So, Defo him.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And then they started preaching,
going, hey,
I seen him after he died, you know?
And loads of people were like,
no, you fucking never.
But they were like,
no, Defo did.
And then they were killed
for, like,
sort of saying lies.
First cover-up.
First fucking cover-up. They died for what they were accused of saying lies. First cover up. First fucking cover up.
They died for what they were accused of lying about.
And that's sort of why Christians believe in Jesus
because they're like,
no one's ever died for a lie.
So they think the fact that they were willing to die
and be punished for spreading the word
of him being, you know,
bobbing about in the cinema at the car wash and that
a few days after he resurrected.
Right.
They're like, right, if they believed it that much
that they were willing to die for it, then it must be true.
So the grave got robbed.
And when they went back to go, hey, let's just check that fucker's in there.
They were like, what?
He's gone.
He's gone he's gone
it can't be a grave
it can't be grave robbers
and then someone went
hey hang on
my brother-in-law
saw him at crazy golf
crazy golf
what
so it can't be grave robbers
crazy golf
and the other day
yeah
he was at Tesco as well
and that's how we ended up with
essentially wow do you know if you buried the relative in a cave and then he went there would you go he was at Tesco as well and that's how we ended up with essentially
wow
Joe if you buried a relative
in a cave
and then they weren't there
would you go
they're back alive again
but then you got home
and just before you were like
hey someone's robbed our John's body
someone was like
hey I seen your John today
at the Mecha Bingo
right
and you'd be like
hang on our John's been dead
for three days
you'd be like no
here's a picture of me and John you'd be like hang on they got John's been dead for three days. You'd be like, no, here's a picture of me and John.
You'd be like, hang on.
Ah, they got a selfie.
Yeah, but then after a few days, it's just dust.
He is weirdly translucent.
Yeah, he always a painting.
He doesn't take pictures well, John.
Right.
Yeah, I suppose, yeah.
That's the full basis of Christianity, literally.
So that's what Passion of the Christ 2 is.
I've never seen one.
Do I have to see one?
They do a little recap at the start. Oh, that's good. Like Game of Thrones. Previously on Passion of the Christ 2 is. I've never seen one. Do I have to see one? They do a little recap at the start.
Oh, that's good.
Like Game of Thrones.
Previously on Passion of the Christ.
Just to catch you up.
Get here, you.
You fucking prick.
Bang, bang, bang, bang.
Oh, is it a musical?
What?
You're thinking of Jesus Christ Superstar.
That is a musical, isn't it?
Jesus Christ Superstar. That's all he, isn't it? Jesus Christ Superstar.
That's all he was, really.
Just a fucking celeb of the day, wasn't he?
You can nail me up, but you can't put me down.
Bang, bang, bang.
I'll see you with Tesco.
Nice.
And his babe was a brass.
Big dance scene.
Yeah.
Mary.
Same name as his ma.
Mary Bigger.
Mummy issues.
Oh, yeah. You'd expect him to have daddy issues you know
born to a stepdad
Joey wasn't his fucking actual dad
I think he called him dad
she'd been slaughtered in the pool all over
there's no, by the way, if I was the son of God
and I was brought up to believe
I was the son of God
there's no way I'm calling Joseph dad not even there's a fire no yeah but hang on jesus i don't think jesus did anything son of god
like until he was 30 then he went do you know what i need to settle down i am the son of god
he was like harry potter he'd done stuff and not noticed like he'd make glass disappear and a snake
escape yeah he'd done all that he just automatically at the age of five knew how to juggle and everyone
was like who taught you that he's like i think he might have spent his 20s just getting on it
because like you've got to invite jesus he's great fun house party you've got some water bang wine
he's just pissed and if you can turn water to wine you're the first invite for a house party
what was the second name? Jesus. Christ.
Jones.
Yeah.
Jesus Jones.
Me and Jesus.
Jesus Jones.
That's a scary old song.
Yeah, there's no way he was calling Joey dad.
He's probably calling him Joe.
Just to be a prick. joe we got any milk
fans of some frosty's me call me dad shut the fuck up mate i'll get me real dad to smite you
what do you mean by that
can it surely can you really not do any like miracle shit till he was in his 30s there was
literally no recorded and i mean it's all bollocks but there's nothing
there's nothing is it
like literally
30 to 32
33 is when he did
all his stuff
it's like Jamie Vardy
isn't he
100%
just took ages
he's heavy isn't he
he was doing miracles
in fucking league 2
for years
where's that Jesus
he's in Fleetwood
fucking about
that's a lot after him now what a story Is that Jesus? He's in Fleetwood fucking about.
That's a lot after him now.
What a story.
Wait till he gets to the championship.
They say with Bethlehem was all career name, lad.
The lost years of Jesus,
they're called.
18 years.
He was on it.
He was getting on it.
He could make wine.
He was a piss head.
And then he got a fucking ice plunge and went,
you know what?
I've changed.
So hang on, there was 18 years.
Yeah.
Between 12 and 30.
No one knows what happened.
So for the first 12 years.
Yeah.
But from the off, she was saying,
this is the son of God, wasn't she?
Yeah, but everyone thought she was a fucking wronger
though, didn't they?
Yeah.
Because she's gone around going, listen, I'me but hey this is god's baby and everyone's like that's right usually so i'm not sure everyone believed it but imagine
though like let's just take the story of face value for a minute and not like have our usual
skeptical thing imagine she comes out right and she's like i'm having god's baby everyone's like you're
having fucking dave's baby mate we've seen him fucking leaving yours last week right and everyone's
chatting about how much she's a bit of a hooer right and then she has this baby everyone feels
sorry for joe thinking ah he's fucking fell for everything and it's god's baby and we all know
that she was getting fucking slotted behind his back. And then Jesus turns 32 and starts moonwalking across the water.
Then how bad would you feel?
For giving her a shit for 30 years
and Jesus is like, fucking look at this.
I'm juggling my moonwalking on the water.
I bet she was at everything.
She'd be like fucking John Fury.
Just really like big presence.
Always like, this is my son.
He's a holy man.
You know it.
After all those years of basically everyone thinking
she was a bit of a fucking slag.
You'd be fucking made up.
As soon as he started doing his magic tricks,
Mary must have been in her element.
Like, I'm coming to every show.
Isn't it mad though,
that like she claimed that from the off
and then he was able to do some stuff?
You know what I mean? Like was able to do some stuff. You know what I mean?
Like eventually he did do some stuff.
Like at very least he spent 18 years
with the magic circle
learning some shit.
Do you know what I mean?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like he did get good at whatever he was
like trying to do
and she claimed it from the off.
That makes me believe it.
Do you reckon God well-eated
or just like put it in her?
Which one? God came down
there was love involved
was he kissing her
God came down
in human form
which by the way
because I've watched
Bruce Almighty
is always going to be
Morgan Freeman
so Morgan Freeman
came down
hasn't he played
God like seven times
something like that
yeah I know
he's played that
a couple of times
he's definitely
played it twice
that might be it
Bruce Almighty and Evan Almighty the best thing about Jesus by the way is when he got human something like that yeah I know he's played that a couple of times he's definitely played it twice that might be it see
Bruce Almighty
and Evan Almighty
the best thing about
Jesus by the way
is when he got fuming
that time
and started smoking
everyone in the temple
sucking them off
no
he went in
and he was like
a fucking pop up
classic football shirt
or something in the temple
and he went and smashed
it all up didn't he
you know that story
this is my father's house
yeah
are you paying rent
yeah kicking him back to the big fella no get out and he started like you know that story this is my father's house yeah are you paying rent yeah
kicking him back
to the big fella
no get out
and he started like
flipping all the tables
and vicious
yeah
I think God
and there was Mary behind him
he doesn't like a shop
I think God
did just be like
yeah what
baby in your pussy
like I think
he was just
ready to go as well
yeah
but
did you hear about that woman
about a year after Michael Jackson died
that claimed she got fucked by his ghost
and then she was pregnant
with Michael Jackson's kid?
Yeah.
That was a real woman.
Wait till he starts doing magic tricks
then we'll all believe again.
We'll go moonwalk at least.
Nice.
And then fuck some kids.
Ooh.
Allegedly.
Whilst moonwalking.
His kids are Luke Skywalker's, aren't they?
What?
Michael Jackson's kids.
He lived in a weird world, didn't he?
Mark Hamill's.
Luke Skywalker.
Why are you asking us?
We know the gossip about the early 90s in Hollywood.
Is that like a rumour?
I think that was a pretty solid rumour.
Michael Jackson couldn't have kids.
So he asked, you know,
the obvious choice, Mark Hamill,
to be the old...
I would like to have some babies,
but I can't come.
So I'm going to get the Star Wars boy
to come fuck my wife.
Star Wars boy.
Priscilla Presley was banging, by the way.
Have you seen the film?
What?
Oh, the new one?
It's great.
No.
I've not seen it.
Jacob Elodie's Elvis.
Not as good as Austin Butler.
But the actually real Priscilla Presley was phenoms?
Yeah, she was also 14.
Not her whole life.
No.
No.
At one time, though.
Yeah.
But we've all been 14.
What a great comeback.
Who do you fancy?
Well, she was 11 once.
You're fucking wrong.
What's that?
Is that the Finn Taylor bit?
That brilliant bit.
I couldn't fancy a woman, a trans woman,
because there used to be a man.
Well, I like Scarlett Johansson,
who used to be a baby.
Fucking brilliant. Michael Jackson lived in a wild world, didn't he? to be a man well i like scarlett johansson who used to be a baby brilliant michael jackson
lived in a wild world didn't he he watched star wars one day he went ah he's shagging you have
you ever been shown pictures of laura when she was a kid we talked about this recently didn't we we

you've kissed a former baby's but i never know how to handle it
i it's it's horrible i mean yeah it? Yeah. Don't feel good.
Especially if they still look like they used to.
That's still her mouth.
Yeah.
That's not a new mouth.
She hasn't grew a baby,
like an adult mouth.
You know what I'm saying?
It's out of order,
but it's right.
I've looked the same
since I was about three years old.
You don't even look the same
as when you started working here. That was just fat i mean if you saw a picture
of me when i was three i look exactly the same as i do now i'll find one in the break
yeah you're a grown you're a grown boy oh you're a grown boy dan when you look at it remember same I've never kissed his bum although he's dried wait till we're in Turkey

so we're planning on
going to Turkey next year
for Finn Day
but it's going to be
Finn Week
going to be Finn Week
in Turkey
Patreon special
Finn's going to show us
around the motherland
the fatherland the fatherland I'm going to show us around the motherland, the fatherland.
Fatherland.
I'm going to fight his dad.
You'd lose so badly.
Yeah, but it'd be good.
It'd be funny.
And I bet his dad fights dirty with machetes and nukes and stuff.
Chili sauce before he starts.
Chili garlic, my friend.
We were talking before we started,
and I said I want us to wait and talk about this on pod.
Carl said you've banned me and Carl
from paying your nan a little visit,
if you know what I mean.
Because, think why.
I'm not going to say it.
Because I might want to fuck her.
She might want to.
Oh, really?
That was Finn's words.
That was what I said.
I pulled that aside and I just went...
She's got a thing for the, you know...
Scott's cock? Yeah. Like John Teddy's mom? Yeah. I pulled Dan aside and I just went she's got a thing for the you know Scouse cock
yeah
like John Teddy's ma
yeah
Finn Cupboard loves Nan
she loves the Scouse cock
so all we've done here is
flash bit
before my eyes then
why I've said this
so they're gonna go
and meet her
and we're not allowed
all we're gonna do that day
is find where they are yeah i'm gonna
air tag them all is that genuinely what you're worried about that she might be like because i
just won't chag it if you don't want me to thanks you're such a good mate do you think it's genuinely
that's fucking sound like you know well i won't chag it either i'm just concerned about what
about you two about us two doing what me and Me and you two. What do you mean?
Do you not know what he means?
No.
You do know what he means.
Adam.
What?
What would we possibly do or say that would upset your nan?
Bring disrespect upon my family.
In what way, though?
What?
I honestly don't know.
We haven't decided yet.
It could be so many things.
Just spur of the moment,
whatever you feel like doing at that minute.
I said I'd never be rude to one of your families,
especially in Old Leeds.
You cannot assure that.
You cannot.
Once there is a camera on and you're with him,
it's evil concentrated.
You can't make any assurances.
You're up in the hills with a fucking Turkish nana.
Does your nan live in the hills by the way?
No.
She lives up the hill though, doesn't she?
No.
In my head, it's honestly like a Taliban hideout up there.
That's where a lot of the family is.
And you're worrying about me and him?
He thinks she's in the Taliban, mate.
I just think she fancies me.
Once she meets you, she might be in the Taliban.
A lot of the other family are in the hills.
Oh, right, right, right.
You can go meet them if you want.
Right, okay.
Can they meet them?
By the way,
I'm now not going to Turkey
unless we get to meet your nan.
Oh no, we're going to find his nan.
The only thing is,
he may not be there now.
He's fucked it.
Finn, respectfully,
hopefully she dies before we go.
Just for her own safety.
I'm going to tag the lorries.
And then when you've gone, I'll know where she lives.
I mean, I don't want to go in the middle of the night.
You're going in the middle of the night?
Yeah.
To the hills.
No camera, by the way, just for their own satisfaction.
Will, stay there.
Film it.
This is a point of pride.
We're going up into the hills.
I'll be very gentle and nice with you, Nan.
Sexually.
If he doesn't want me to shag his nan
I won't shag his nan
listen let's make a promise here
what more do you want
no one's allowed to shag
anyone's nan
is that fair
it's a deal man
that should be a
you can shag my nan
if she wants
you'll have to
slag the wish
sex yeah I'm really offended that you think your hands are slagged over your chin sex
yeah
I'm really offended
that you think
I said to Carl
I mean this
one of you
if it's just you two together
it's not
say what you actually said
I went
I maybe wouldn't trust Adam on his own
even on your own
why
why I know I'm offended that's why she's getting it now why if I could be her I went, I maybe wouldn't trust Adam on his own. Even on your own? Why?
Why?
I know, I'm offended.
That's why she's getting it now.
Why?
If I could be arsed, I'd edit a montage right now that I did see it right here.
But it's no one else's family, is it?
I've never been disrespectful to anyone's family.
To be fair, we were laughing in this man's ring that time.
That's because he lost it.
But he lost it immediately. We we were like you came back to me
on the beach went all right just a heads up finn's lost his dead grandma's ring
nobody is dead sad so i've never seen more in the sea he went something about like oh i loved
your man's ring it was it was immediate It was immediate. Yeah, but that,
if your dead nan was there,
I wouldn't have said it.
She was, in spirit.
Yeah, but like, she can't,
she was deaf, wasn't she?
I wouldn't disrespect your dead nan to her face.
Thanks.
Thank you.
What about his living one?
No.
She's a very devout Muslim.
Oh, well then there's no problem.
There we go.
I won't even have bacon for like that day.
Well, even on the carnival day.
Yeah.
I'll avoid bacon.
What do you mean?
What are you telling her she's a Muslim?
It's just a fact.
Okay.
I'll pray with her.
I'm just, she's quite a...
Bent over girl.
What? I'll pray with her. I'm just, she's quite a... Bent over girl. Well, I'll pray with her.
She's a devout Muslim.
She can talk me into it.
Prays five times a day.
There we go.
So she'll probably be praying when we get there anyway.
Yeah.
Wow.
Especially if she's old.
Because like, if you've got to pray five times a day
and they have to do it on the knees,
on the little rug, don't they?
I would imagine like her hips are going
and she probably just stays down.
Yeah.
Just find her.
Stay down.
You want to stay down.
I'll just get down with her.
She can teach me the prayer.
We'll do the prayer.
Be very respectful.
Make sure we film that.
And then we'll all share
a halal chicken.
Oh, does she eat that?
She does eat chicken, yeah.
Nice.
See, Finn, what were you worried about?
I don't know.
You're getting air-tagged anyway.
Yeah, this is going to be...
We're going to have to escape to go and meet your nan.
It doesn't matter what you do.
I promise you we'll have sorted something.
We'll have planned something by then.
We'll be there when you get there.
More than welcome to meet my dad
and rip the piss out of him.
Fine, he's fair game.
Your cousin is the mayor of Bodrum?
My cousin's best friend is the mayor of Bodrum.
What could possibly go wrong?
I'll pray with him.
I'll pray with everyone.
I'm going to the mosque.
We're doing the mosque special.
Well, this is happening.
I'm going to wear my cheap trainees that day, though.
That's my worst pair.
In case someone's the awesome.
No, there's no trainer robbing from the mosque, surely.
You can risk as much as you want, mate,
but I'm not leaving my Wotherspoons at the door of the mosque.
Your Wother was what?
Me Wotherspoons.
Your Wetherspoons?
Me Wotherspoons.
What's a Wetherspoon?
It's a pub, then.
That's not what I'm talking about.
It's an expensive Nike trainer.
Sean Wotherspoon.
You've got Wotherspoons?
I've got Wotherspoons.
Has he done that on purpose?
Or is that his name?
That's his name.
Oh, right, yeah, yeah.
Rhys Witherspoon didn't do it on purpose either.
Or Ian Withernife.
I'll wear mine of hers.
My Rhys Witherspoon.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm not leaving me good shoes at the door, you know?
I don't think anyone who's a religious person
would steal them.
Why do you take your shoes off?
This is a genuine ignorant question.
You've got to wash your feet.
I mean, you've got to be clean before you go in.
I've been kicked out of a mosque,
so I'm not sure if we'd be allowed back in.
I was six years old.
I'm not sure how long the bans last.
What did you do at six years old?
I was using the Primates as dance mats.
And you're scared that we meet your nan.
Bang, bang, bang.
Did you think you were...
What do you mean, Finn?
Where was this, in Turkey?
Yeah, my dad was like,
we're going to the mosque.
Pay your respects and all that shit.
It was Friday, Holy Day.
And I was six and I was into break dancing at that point break dancing at the mosque i will great album break dancing
at my house oh what a feeling he got bad at six yeah they came take that rhythmical child out of
the mosque they came over to my dad and i don't know what they said because i don't speak very
good turkish but i think it was to the effect. They came over to my dad, and I don't know what they said because I don't speak very good Turkish,
but I think it was to the effect of,
yeah, you need to leave.
Get that breakdancing cunt out of my mosque.
He, like, dragged me by my collar out.
What did he say?
Yeah.
But they won't recognise you now.
Wow.
I look the same.
That imam would be,
that would be a fucking elephant-like memory
if he was like,
the breakdancing bastard.
Out you go.
Turn the music off.
We should stop listening to Run DMC in the mosque.
It's too tempting.
And what's that voice you're doing?
Turkish imam.
And I think he's spot on.
It's like that.
And that's the way
Has he gone?

All the shit we're planning.

josh says yes lids watch the films guns akimbo the other day where daniel radcliffe has guns
fixed to both of his hands what if you had to have something fixed to both of your hands,
what would it be?
Before we answer that,
can I get a Rotten Tomatoes on Guns Akimbo?
It's meant to be really good, isn't it?
What?
Yeah.
Really?
Yeah, he's in a Kimbo.
Maybe I'm thinking of a different film.
You're thinking of Army Man.
When he's dead.
Yeah, what is it?
I can't remember.
52% for Guns Akimimbo it's like army man
it's like swiss army man there we go i was getting confused so he keeps doing these roles yeah
not a big daniel radcliffe it needs to stay away from anything that's taking us off seriously
because he's just had he parted only yeah he's on broadway at the minute he's just won a couple
of tony's oh has he it's so funny that the award's called the Tony, you know,
because it's such a scouse dad name.
Yeah.
You're very good at singing and dancing.
This year's Alan Award for best radiator bleeding goes to...
Daniel Radcliffe, who's got radiator keys on his hands.
Does it have to be one each?
Can it be the same thing, or can it be like two?
Shall we say, for the sake of the question, they're mirrored.
Oh.
Oh, so you get the same on each one.
Okay.
Or maybe as long as they're matched.
Do you know what I mean?
So you can't have like a butter knife and an Uzi.
Oh, that's me out.
I'm going with Allen keys.
Because I'm fine with finding as I grow up, I need
Allen keys a lot more than I thought I ever would.
Right, hang on. I've never got one to hand.
So is it a bunch of Allen keys on each
hand? Yeah, it's the different sizes.
That is the worst
possible answer that you
could have given. Hang on. When was the last time
you used... Yesterday, because I've tried to break down
the Kallax in my house
and I haven't got any.
Have you got hands?
Or have you just got a set of Allen keys?
It's like inspect the gadget.
Google gadget, Allen key.
Because by the way, that's torture.
If you've just got a set of Allen keys one side,
and you can't get any of them out.
So does it come out your hand?
Yeah.
Or is it attached to your hand?
No, it is your hand.
So you don't have a hand as well?
You don't have a hand as well.
Oh.
I'll pick hands then.
When you've got dexterity over them,
you can use them as like...
I'm quite happy with what I've got.
I'm just finding myself needing Alan Keyes more.
When Serica goes,
take me to bed,
touch me with your Alan Keyes hands.
Who's Alan Keyes?
Alicia's dad.
Richard's brother.
Whose bit's that? Oh, it's Brennan. Alan Keyes? Alicia's dad. Richard's brother. Whose bit's that?
Oh, it's Brennan.
Alan Keyes.
I need them more than ever.
I've never got them.
Bosh.
I'll have electric,
salt and pepper.
I thought that.
I thought salt and pepper,
but...
I don't like the electric ones,
by the way,
just in my head then.
They're great.
I got them for Father's Day.
What a touch.
For fairer. This is mental. Their answers are mental, aren't they? yet then? Because they're great. I got them for Father's Day. What a touch. For fairer.
This is mental.
Their answers are mental, aren't they?
I'm not just losing my mind.
What's yours?
A fucking ATM and like a woman's tits?
What do you need an ATM for?
You've got everything you need.
I don't know.
Shall I answer and then you can go last?
Yeah, go on.
I was thinking like, do you know like the Coke machines? Yeah. On one last. Yeah, go on. I was thinking, like, do you know, like the Coke machines
on one hand,
so unlimited soft drinks
and then...
Look,
how big are Coke machines?
You're not shrinking it down.
Oh, like a gun.
I think they're like a vendor machine.
No.
One of the guns.
You won't dance in mosques anymore.
Fucking vendor machine
for a right hand.
And then, what's similar to that on my right hand. And then what's similar to that on my right hand?
What's similar to that for your right hand?
Crisp one.
That's our vending machine.
He's just going to hang out at a leisure centre.
Yeah.
Giving out crisps and pop.
Finn's great if you've just been swimming.
Diet Coke, regular Coke.
Guns are Kimbo.
I'm sure he's just got like guns in his hands you know it's not like he's got no hands
and he's got guns instead
oh yeah there's guns just sellotaped to his hands or something
I've watched this film
they're like
he can't get rid of them
and I think I turned it off actually
it's one of the weirdest stories
yeah it's just attached
to his hands he could still let go of them
like wrapped around his wrist ah right right right so He could still let go of them. Like wrapped around
his wrist.
Yeah.
Ah, right, right, right.
So like he's got
hold of them,
but he could like
let them go
and still use his hands.
Every picture I'm seeing,
his hands are in the same place
and that is on the trigger.
So it's...
No, I'm sure.
It's like if he takes
them off, he dies.
I saw it and didn't
pay attention
because it was that bad.
I'll never take my
salt and pepper off.
What are you going
with that on?
Salt and pepper's
so readily available everywhere then.
Listen, so much.
I've never needed salt and pepper, ever,
apart from in here,
and not being able to locate it.
We bought some yesterday.
Oh, sorry, a gold refinery.
It's not easy, is it?
I'd love a lump of gold.
I was thinking like dildos or something.
What?
Do you have a dick?
I know, yeah. We're sponsored by Love Honey. They're not even available like dildos or something. What? Do you have a dick? I know, yeah.
We're sponsored by Love Honey.
They're not even available, dildos.
You've got a dick.
Yeah, I know.
But you can like fuck a woman from behind
and then put your dildo on under her on her clit.
She's going off like a broken fire hydrant.
Sorry, what?
You're using the dildo as a finger?
Yeah.
Even though you've got a finger.
I love how you've just gone.
Your fingers don't vibrate. What. Your fingers don't vibrate.
What?
Your fingers don't vibrate like a dildo does.
They can.
They can.
Yeah.
No, they can't.
No, they can.
They can.
I can make them sort of vibrate.
Yeah, you can wobble them.
It's not like a bullet, though, is it? If I don't eat for two days and then we have sex,
I get the shakes.
Hang on, see what I have.
Uncle Jay Fox.
Dildos for hands.
Oh.
What? You're having dildo hands.-Fox. Dildos for hands. What?
You don't have dildo hands?
No, because I've still got me hands.
But you've got a dildo strapped to them?
Yeah.
Well, that was an insane question.
It's so mad how...
It's obviously a ridiculous question.
It's obviously a ridiculous question.
But I love it how we take it so seriously.
Like, lads, yeah, let's get into it.
What's the best thing a human can do?
Come.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's up there.
Orgasm's top three.
Breathing.
Do you know what definitely isn't?
Adding salt and pepper to your dish.
Well, I tell you what.
You know, when I make pasta, I don't need jizz.
Next time you need a Kallax building, mate,
you know who to call. Alan, Key.
By the way, between the four of us,
we can have a class night.
Adam just jizzing all over IKEA
flat pack. Hopefully he can't
with you.
Whoa.
That's what it would look like.
Little visual.
I'm feeling hay fever-y this summer.
Considering it's not a very nice summer so far,
I feel hay fever-y.
It's been summer for two weeks.
Everyone needs to fucking relax.
What?
It's been summer for two weeks.
Since the equinox.
21st is when summer starts, isn't it?
Right.
Yeah, I know,
but usually May
and most of June
is quite nice
I don't think it's unreasonable
to say
a lot of May was nice
it's not been
great
has it
it's been
the first part of June
everyone's like
oh summer's been terrible
the first part of June
was cold
back to school everybody
the whole of July
you're not even off school yet
you're not even off
get back
that's exactly my point because all of July and're not even off school yet you're not even off get back that's exactly my point
because all of July
and all of August
is summer
and a bit of June
and a bit of September
yeah
but the pollen is up mate
may I recommend the injection Dan
I had that
when I went to Turkey
my eyes were really bad
if you're having a bit of hay fever
just have some smach
and you won't give a shit
I recommended the hay fever injection
so I went to someone
didn't realise I'd know the girl fever injection, so I went to someone.
Didn't realise I'd know the girl,
and it's in your bum cheek.
Did you wash your arse?
No.
It's shit everywhere.
Hay fever injection?
Finn!
That is really a bad faux pas, though.
I know.
I'm a key pop.
What do you have on?
What do you have good pants on?
Always, mate.
It's ready to go.
I wouldn't mind getting a needle in the arse.
It's probably, like, in the arse cheek it's fine
I think it's the best place
to get it
yeah because you can't
even see it going
yeah
when you were a kid
did your nan say
make sure you're wearing
clean undies
in case you get hit
by a car
I've heard the phrase
yeah
mad
what
did you never get that
no
make sure you've got
clean underpants on
you might get hit
by a car
what if you shit yourself
after you got hit
by a car
exactly his nan was like do you know any scousers bring them round no make sure you've got clear underpants on you might get hit by a car what if you shit yourself after you got hit by a car exactly
his nan was like
do you know any scousers
bring them round
yeah I never understood that
because when they take it off
you'd be all embarrassed
I heard you pooed your pants
when you died anyway
didn't it all
yeah
it's common
it's not everyone
but it's common
how when you get a birth
your body just gets rid of
all the stuff in it
doesn't it
when you die
it's just like
you just loosen up yeah all the stuff in it, doesn't it? When you die. It's just like... You just loosen up.
Yeah.
All your snot comes out.
Piss, shit.
You don't want to be bloated after you die.
Cum everywhere.
That's why old people always stink,
because their bodies are just getting ready
and just leaking it bit by bit.
Cum.
Where are you from?
Kenny says,
Yes, the boys.
If you could only communicate
with one word
for the rest of your life,
what word would you pick?
Nah.
Daddy, do you love me?
Nah.
I haven't got any kids yet,
so yes.
You could do it like ironically.
You never will as well.
Well, no, because someone would go
do you want to have kids
and you'd be like nah
do you want to Guinness at them
nah
no it's not
that's the whole point isn't it
nah
because if you pick
yeah
like that's what
that's what
nah
you know what I mean
like
that's the whole point of it
Is you have to pick a word
That like you can
Sort of get around
Because if I say yoghurt
Do you want to get us out of them
Yoghurt
Sound fucking stupid
Ah then did you stab
This woman to death
Nah
Nah
Nah
Nah I didn't
No we can say that
Nah
Yeah
Mine's perhaps
Did you stab that woman
in the step cow
perhaps
it's up to them to prove it
I haven't said the S or no
do you want a beer
perhaps
they'll get you one
I think perhaps
is the answer
I think it's nah
what are you going for
shagga
just say shagga
all the time
daddy do you love me
shagga
I don't think shagga
works at all no it's it'd be absolute torture any way you do it
yeah i was thinking along your lines i was thinking like sound or something
sounds a good one actually yeah try it fucking hell mate have you seen that natty rally over there
sound eight children have been killed in a church sound
sound
sound
sound
sound's a good one
yeah
I think that might
that might be the right answer
perhaps it's bollocks
you've been
did you stab this woman
to death
sound
sound
I think you did it
sound
I love it how in this projection
we're acute
there's a lot of murders
isn't there
like it's day to day
like you know
did you kill someone
I've never been asked
if I've killed anyone ever
I'll try some day to days
with me and I'll keep using sound
have you pooed in the toilet
sound
toilet
did you
did you
did you flush
oh
sound
did you live skid marks
sound
have you signed those
patreon posters
sound yes not that he went signed anyway Did you leave skid marks? Sound. Have you signed those Patreon posters?
Sound?
Not that he went and signed anyway.
Let's do some advice.
If you need some advice, have a word pod at gmail.com. If you want to get it VIP treatment, patreon.com slash have a word pod.
And Harry will filter it to the top.
This is from an anonymous lid.
Now then lids, I'm a single lad in my twenties and I have to have a colostomy bag fitted back in my late teens.
My question is, when you're meeting new lady friends,
how and when would you, Lyd, tell them about the actual bag of shite
they're going to see without killing the mood?
Well, the phrase killing the mood implies you're waiting
until you know what you're about to fuck.
Yeah.
I'd just drop it in to, like, the first date conversation, like, really innocuously. Do you know what you're about to fuck. Yeah. I just drop it in to like the first date conversation,
like really innocuously.
Do you know what I mean?
When she's like, so what do you do for work?
You just be like, well, you know,
obviously my life's a bit different
because I have to shit in a bag.
So I can't do it.
Yeah.
I work at a construction site
because, you know, I have to shit in a bag
and I've always wanted to be a bricklayer.
I mean, you don't put it on your Tinder profile, do you know I have to shit in a bag and I've always wanted to be a bricklayer I mean you don't put it
on your Tinder profile do you
that's
I think you should
that's too up front
no you can't put it on
first pick nice one
second pick
bag of shit
you can't put it on
your Tinder profile
on any sort of
dating profile like that
because
when it comes to those
profiles
people are judging you
purely on looks
so you don't
you want to hide
all your negatives there any negatives about your appearance and I'm so you don't you want to hide all your
negatives there any negatives about your appearance and i'm sorry i don't want to stigmatize but
having a shit bag attached to your arsehole is a negative when it comes to appearances and that's
why he's asking and you want to wait until you can sort of enforce your personality on these people
before you'd be like hey i, I poo in a bag.
On the plus side,
I'll never need to go to the toilet.
Yeah.
The bathroom's always free
at my house, love.
You know what I mean?
You gay?
The bathroom is always free.
That is a plus
in a marriage, by the way.
Like when you're dating,
I understand why
there'd be a bit of a stigma
because people, you know,
any difference is seen
as a deficiency. But, yeah, of a stigma because people, you know, any difference is seen as a deficiency.
But yeah, I think in a marriage, you know,
we only need one bathroom in our house, love.
Going to festivals,
you don't have to queue for fucking ages
to use a dirty port-a-potty.
What if you roll over in bed, don't burst it?
You'd hang it off the side, don't you?
That sounds like a euphemism.
Don't let your dog near you're close to me,
bag.
That's on the instructions that
come with it. When they plumb it in.
Like, have you got any dogs?
You're going to need to keep that away from your shit bag
or there'll be poo everywhere. FYI,
shouldn't need to be said, avoid trampolines for a bit.
For a bit?
You can hold it, can't you?
You can't go swimming
I think with anything
like
just
you want to
judge it so it's not
like as you're getting undressed
yeah
but
like
people are going to be
sound about it
if you really like someone
can you take it out
what do you mean
I might be ignorant to what a colostomy bag is but like someone can you take it out what do you mean i might be
ignorant to what a colostomy bag is but can you just like take it out you have i think you have
to sort of take it out and clean it and stuff yeah um my mom had one before she passed away
it's really funny like and obviously it's really like difficult and life affecting and life
changing and stuff but uh like there's a funny side to it
if you've got a sense of humor about like,
obviously your plight,
which this lad obviously has
because he's writing into us about it.
Would you clean a flange?
Say that again?
Would your mum clean a flange?
As far as I'm aware,
I've never had a very clean flange.
And you wonder why you're not meeting things now.
No, it's a two-piece pouch.
The bag and the flange are separate.
Oh, nice.
I never seen a cleaner flange.
But I've got no reason to believe she had a dirty flange.
The flange can be left on your skin for several days, though.
She should have done it in private.
And then the bag's the bit that comes on and off.
Yeah, it was...
Like, after she sort of lost half of her leg, she also, like... She had two the bit that comes on and off. Yeah, it was like after she sort of
lost half of her leg
she also like
had two flanges.
Her bladder and bowel
were affected as well
because of her
alcoholism.
Of course.
But it is mad
to just be sat
watching loose women
knowing your mum's
pooing on the couch.
With a very clean
flange though.
Yeah.
That's what
they always said.
She's the last
loose woman.
Poo's are loose yeah
Johnny says
you know what's really funny
about all of that
is I know if there's
an afterlife
and my mum's watching this
she is
no
into a bag
please tell me
you don't have a costume
bag in heaven
I think you
you go to heaven
with whatever you're
left with
no
that's why ghosts
have always got the
same outfit on
no
you can't spend
eternity
with a clean flange
and a colostomy bag
that's
she's gotta go back
in a
you ever seen a ghost
in a colostomy bag
but I know she's
crying and eyes
not laughing
but I know so many
of like her side of the family would be watching this being like you can't say that about your mum's colostomy bag. But I know she's crying and eyes out laughing, but I know so many of her side
of the family would be watching
and just being like,
you can't say that
about your mum's colostomy bag.
She wasn't pooing
watching Loose Women.
Like, loads of them
will be fucking raging about it.
But my mum will be up in heaven
crying her eyes out laughing.
Did she lose a leg?
She lost it?
She lost the bottom half
of one of her legs, yeah.
And then she used to get phantom limatures.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
So you get itchy toes, even though you haven't got any toes.
Can you imagine how fucking infuriating that would be?
Athlete's foot, when you've lost your foot.
Yeah.
What you do there, it's all psychosomatic, isn't it?
You have to get therapy or something, I don't know.
How do you get past that?
You just can't itch it.
Like, because they cut your leg off,
but all the nerve endings get pushed into your stump.
But, like, you can't reach them,
because they're not attached to the skin,
because the skin's already got its own nerve endings
in the nappa.
So you've just got, like...
An itchy toe.
You've got itchy toes, but you haven't got any toes.
You can't itch the stump.
You can, but it just doesn't do anything.
It wouldn't itch your toe.
It's like if you were to itch your toe,
you wouldn't scratch your knee.
That's exactly what it is.
Johnny says,
wag wag lids,
I need a bit of advice.
It's so real,
this, you know.
I'm currently going through...
All of it's so real.
I'm currently going through
a divorce.
The issue is,
my ex-wife is refusing to pay her share of the fees.
Even though it's her fault the marriage ended,
she couldn't keep her legs closed.
I don't know if I should just pay all of it myself
or try and take her to court.
Any advice?
Keep up the fantastic work, lads.
Got me through a very tough time.
That's from Johnny.
I think you should have been more supportive of your wife's horse riding
she can't keep her legs closed
she can't get off the horse
so she was sleeping about
and now she won't pay for the divorce fees
yeah but like there must be more
to it mustn't there
he's not written the truth in us he's written his side of the truth
yeah because if it's her fault There must be more to it, mustn't there? Oh, yeah. He's not written the truth in us. He's written his side of the truth. Yeah.
Because if it's her fault,
like she's refusing to pay her fees,
well then,
like that's her problem, isn't it?
It's not your problem.
Oh, but if you want a divorce,
would you not just pay it?
Is that delaying it, yeah?
Yeah, yeah.
You've got to both agree to it, haven't you?
Oh, she's saying I don't want a divorce,
so I'm not paying it.
No. No. She is refusing to pay her share of the fees so that means they can't get a divorce they're currently going through a divorce she won't pay her bit he can pay that he can just he can
expedite the whole thing by paying the fees but she's going i'm not fucking paying they've agreed
to the divorce by the sounds of it, but she's just...
How much does the divorce cost, Finn?
I know.
It is...
It depends how sound you're being with each other.
An uncontested divorce...
Yeah, there you go.
...is between 602 grand, excluding VAT.
As soon as you start disagreeing,
solicitors get involved,
and then that shit's drawn out.
Between three and 10 grand.
Ooh.
Yeah, I've got a mate who's going through a divorce and uh he's not having the most fun he's ever had but if you
if you just get to the end of it and go hey we're done here aren't we yeah it's the easiest thing
you just have to pay the basic fees unless someone's not paying johnny just pay the fee
and just be fucking rid of it by the way you didn't need to tell us that your mate wasn't
having the most fun he's ever had
going through a divorce
because otherwise there would be divorce theme parks
and there isn't.
Dan, just to let you know, this is great fun.
Best thing about marriage is divorce.
We're going to get remarried after we're divorced
just to do it all again.
You can keep your water slides, sir.
I'm going divorcing.
Do you have the Sutton that you both own?
There's this list of pick who gets it.
Like you've got like a lovely tea set.
So basically, if you're splitting it 50-50.
It's like picking a five-a-side team.
Yeah.
So like everything gets valued.
And if you go, right, I want that telly.
And they go, right, that's about seven ton.
And she goes, well, I'll have the little telly,
but that's only 300.
She then gets 400 quid
worth of other stuff.
Is that true?
Yeah.
All the match types.
It's a division of assets
and it's meant to match.
Mad.
You own a house
with Serica.
I do.
Did you do it fiddy-fiddy?
We own it as one person.
There's two different ways,
isn't there?
All right,
so it's 50-50 then.
Yeah,
it's not like I own more.
Right.
Or she owns more. Yeah, but that's 50-50, isn't it? 50-50. 51. That's 50-50 then? Yeah, it's not like I own more. Right. Or she owns more.
Yeah, but that's 50-50, isn't it?
Yeah, 50-50.
50-50.
That's 50-50, yeah.
I know, I'm agreeing.
Is that 50-50?
No, we own it as one person.
We are one.
No one's got more.
We're together.
That's 50-50, pal.
No, no, no.
It's different.
Our house is actually 120%, though, so...
Oh, nice!
Oh?
Yeah, you can...
Hey, babe, you can have 50%
but I'm taking 70
I think that's fair
I think you'll understand
I'm putting a lot more money in
I want you to have 50%
that's mad
that wallet is like
something that's
like a value
but it's priceless to you both
in terms of its memory
then I think you have to
come to an agreement
on like what
the value of that is
like the dog
yeah that dog's worth seven son
right well then you can have two cats
I'll have the smaller dog
the gerbil and the fish
that makes one
one good dog
three snakes a rabbit
oh god I'm so oblivious that it seems like a fucking right laugh Three snakes, a rabbit. Oh, God.
I'm so oblivious that it seems like a fucking right laugh divorce.
Fucking hell, mate.
If it's causing you anguish, Johnny,
just pay it and just get her out of your life.
Imagine still having every ex in your life fucking around.
Like, that's the beauty of not marrying.
Like, you just go, go hey we're done aren't
we and then you can just end it like it seems like torture to just drag that out because of some
legalese what is it one in three get divorced is that two apparently that's cancer yeah same thing
that one in two cancers hyped up though one One in two people are affected by cancer.
Right.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's not one in two people die of cancer.
Also, old people just get dead old people cancer at the end.
Like my granddad's bum cancer.
Yeah, like your body's gone.
You've got to have something.
Hang on, you've got cancer of the bum?
Yeah.
Bow.
Hole.
What's the one up your ass?
Prostate.
Colon.
Prostate.
Yeah, you've got prostate cancer.
Where you got prostate?
I mean,
you can keep saying colon,
but it's prostate.
No,
he got prostate,
but you said,
what's the one up the bum?
And that could be either prostate or colon.
Yeah,
but then I'm telling you,
it was definitely prostate.
I answered your question.
What's the bum hole one? Dan. And I said your question what's the Bummo one and I said
maybe colon
because that could be
one of the ones
Dan I know what
your grandad had up his arsehole
no that's not what I'm saying at all
that's not what I'm saying at all
I have got no idea
what kind of arsehole cancer
your grandad died of
what I'm saying is
there is more than one option
I don't think he died of it
he didn't die of it
he just died of it
I think he just died of it
I think it really like
hypes up the stats
it's like Pele scoring
40 a season when he was like 53 it. I think it really like hypes up the stats. It's like Pele scoring 40 a season
when he was like 53.
It's all hyped up
by end of year,
end of career bullshit.
Cancer's padding its stats.
Cancer is padding its stats.
Ronaldo.
What are you Googled,
Devin?
Half of,
yeah,
half of all marriages.
But if you marry again,
then the chances
just go up and up.
So 67% of second marriages end and 73% of third marriages.
Oh, wow.
That doesn't include death, does it?
Yeah, that's not a divorce, I don't think.
Because then 100% of marriages fail.
Well, yours hasn't yet.
No, but 100...
It will do.
Are you saying that I'm going to beat death?
Story's not finished, is it it you're doing well so far that's true we're still married i've not died yeah yeah dylan says all right lids need a bit of advice i've been chatting to this girl at work
and after a bit of grafting she agreed to go with for dinner with me i only work sporadically as i'm at university
but i facetimed her about three days before we were meant to go for dinner i was absolutely
bladded when i facetimed and woke up in the morning blocked on everything with not one clue
what i've said to have caused this now i'm dreading going back to work in a couple of weeks do i just
quit or do i act like i remember what I said and just own it?
Cheers, Dylan.
You've got to move country.
Just quitting the job
is nowhere near enough.
You've got to move house.
I dated you FaceTime-y.
Never mind, I thought I was going on a date with.
Oh my God.
You've got to change your name by deed poll,
move to Cornwall.
Yeah.
Can we just breathalyze
on your phone?
Can,
we can't be that far away
from when you're like,
breathe on it
and just,
it should just shut down.
Do it with cars.
No,
no good can come.
You can get one.
A breathalyzer phone?
A phone breathalyzer, yeah.
100 quid.
Mad.
Is that from Timu?
No, Amazon.
We've seen the cars,
but you can't start the car
for people who've been drunk driving.
Did I mention about Bondi's Tesla?
My mate Tim, his Tesla,
they keep updating it
and it's getting more and more strict
on the self-drive thing.
When he first got it a few years ago,
he was like,
basically you could just watch Netflix,
and if you're on the main roads, it would just take you to work.
And now it's like detecting if your eyes aren't looking on the road.
It's got an eye detector.
So it goes, hey, and then it gives you warnings.
It gives you points on your Tesla license.
How are people fucking in the cars then?
Well, I think that's in the UK.
Also, that is illegal. So it's... How are people fucking in the cars then? Well, I think that's in the UK. There's different...
All right, okay.
Also, that is illegal.
Is it?
Is there a law?
Is it a crime?
Is it a crime to fucking...
To fuck on the A42?
Is it illegal to get sucked off while you're driving?
I think they do you for reckless driving.
Isn't it anything that distracts you?
What?
Isn't it anything that distracts you?
It's legal to eat and stuff in it
so
yeah but like
who gets done
I think it's you
that's driving
unless
unless you're sucking
someone off
and I'm getting sucked off
right
right
I was telling her
no officer
I was saying stop
please stop
yeah
my hands are on the wheel
what do you want me to do
I've been sexually assaulted
and I'm getting done
from reckless driving officer thank god you're here Please stop. My hands are on the wheel. What do you want me to do? I've been sexually assaulted and I'm getting dumped on breakfast driving.
Officer!
Thank God you're here.
This is an assault.
She's still there.
All fucking pulled over.
I'm still intent to do.
New telly has packed that in.
Get off.
I just had a sandwich.
I think you'd get...
I think there's a few points going on in your licence.
I don't think you can ever get in trouble
for getting sucked off.
It's not your fault.
Please.
Well, there's guys in prison
that are doing more time for getting sucked off.
Yeah, so did they.
The guy who was welling up prison guard,
he's got more time on his...
Yeah, but again, I don't agree with that.
That's a different thing
from what you said though,
isn't it?
You said that you don't think
you can ever get in trouble
for getting sucked off.
Sorry, what I should have said
is I don't think you should
ever get in trouble.
Lollipop lady
getting sucked off.
If she's got a big enough cliff
to suck her off.
Barbara,
can we have a word?
We need to speak to you
in the head's office.
During the Mild Eye Club, is that illegal? Yeah. Like if you get sucked off suck it off. Barbara, can we have a word? We need to speak to you in the head's office. Great.
Join the Mile High Club?
Is that illegal?
Yeah.
Like if you get sucked off
in an airplane bog,
you're going to jail.
No.
I don't think it's illegal.
It's illegal to join
the Mile High Club.
No, it's not.
I'm pretty sure it is.
Why is it illegal?
Because it's
public indecency, isn't it?
No, it's not.
I'm going to check,
but I'm pretty sure
it's not allowed.
Is it the same
in a train bog then?
Mile Long Club. Yeah. Well, it's the same and to check. Shut the door. Is it the same in a train bog then? Mile long club.
Yeah.
Well, it's the same
and it's just on the floor.
Go on.
We're just checking
dirtylaw.com.
It's only if you get caught,
to be fair.
Hang on.
It's illegal.
Yeah.
That's all crime.
You can murder someone.
It's not illegal
unless you get caught.
So it's illegal then.
But what happens?
You could get arrested.
Oh, shit.
In the sky.
We're taking you to plain jail.
A different seat.
Yeah, we're going to put you both in this cubicle.
I don't know how true this is.
This is on Reddit.
It's not illegal to join the Mile High Club.
It's only against the law if you refuse to stop after they ask you to
you'd have to make a decision
at that point wouldn't you
and all you have to do is say you're deaf
because like they can't
like wave at you because the door's shut
and they don't know sign language
that's on them
if they open the door they can't go stop

Great days.
Great minimum wage fucking days.
Well, that was awkward.
I'll just never go back again.
What a fucking option.
Deny it.
Oh, it was a deep fake.
Just deny it.
Go on the boat.
No, don't.
There you go.
Just move.
Start a relationship with a bit of gaslighting.
I don't know who you were talking to, you liar.
I'm disgusted by what you did.
You liar.
See you Thursday.
Just genuinely just move to like Scandinavia.

Let's have a break, eh?
Shall we?
Welcome back to part
three of four of this week's episode of
Have A Word, the podcast.
First timer, Lucas
Zelnick here.
It's a pleasure to be here. Any relation
to Mel Zelnick, the jazz drummer? Are you fucking with Melnick here. It's a pleasure to be here. Any relation? To?
Mel's Elnick, the jazz drummer.
Are you fucking with me?
Did you Google her?
No.
You know a jazz drummer's name?
Yeah, I worked with Benny Goodman and Lenny Tristan.
Yeah, I know him well.
How are you, mate?
I'm good.
I took 12 to 14 hours of travel to be here so
you just lost count at 12 i lost count at 12 i know it's more than a day
but the time zones fucked me up you know a day is 24 hours
i know that it was more than a 12 hour day in america we do 12 hour days yeah because
you got in touch with us and asked like if there's any space and i was like yeah sure we'll sort it out and then it looked like you couldn't make it but you changed
flights to get here i moved an embarrassing amount of travel to be here because i went back to all
the american comedians i know who have done your podcast yeah and they were like if you skip this
fucking podcast it's like skipping rogan and i was like all right there you go there's a lot of liars in new york valuable liars in new york i heard that and then the other thing the american comedian said is they
said you might want to listen to a few episodes so you can understand the scouse accent yeah how
are you doing with that because i think you're doing quite well i think it's fine yeah well my
girlfriend's english but she's not she's not a scouser where's she from in england i said that did you hear that uh she's from uh ruscombe in redding that's not a place
is it no no it's not and i don't even have a girlfriend uh no does she live in new york
she lives in new york now with you uh we don't live together but okay near each other and is
she over here with you yeah oh wow okay yeah okay her whole
family and friend group is coming to my show on sunday so i'm pretty nervous have you met them
before uh not all of them and honestly like she and i broke up and got back together and i wrote
some pretty nasty shit about her and it's in the hour that's good i love it when you do that as a
comedy like listen we've got back together but
that stuff's fire it's gotta stay in look we literally had that i was like listen it's kind
of like my job like you can't just like pull things out of my job once it's in the hour it's
gotta stay so i have some pretty bad stuff in there yeah well i guarantee the stuff i've written
about breakups in the past is a real line in the sand it does really sort of remove the possibility
of getting
back with anyone that's why i wrote it yeah the fact that we got back together it was shocking
how long were you together before you broke up three months and how long you've been back together
uh going on eight months yeah okay how bad could she be in three months
oh it's the firework yeah's a three month firework
Show your best after three months
You know what it burned bright and fast
We got matching tattoos within a month
Sure was it?
It's on my arm
I'm glad you said arm
What's that?
Oh it's a different arm
No it's
It's two people on a beach towel
Okay I honestly like the
tattoo had you been the beach together no no great question absolutely not me and jack and uh
our other friend alfie wanted to get uh matching tattoos but then we literally just forgot to get
them in nashville i wanted a cowboy hat on my wrist. Wrist?
That's very visible.
It's in case he forgets
how much you look.
Depends what you're looking at.
If you're looking at the ceiling.
What's my whole personality?
Ah, yeah, cowboy.
Got it.
And a pint of Guinness
on the other.
I'll have two of them.
Do you have them?
Why Nashville?
So we went as a team
last year
and filmed like
a week long vlog
which we released
on Patreon
and patreon.com
slash have a word pod
of course
it was the best week
of my life
by a mile
I loved it
dead good
love country music
so we went back
three weeks
four weeks ago
and yeah
me Jack and Alfie
all went to Nashville together.
It was the end of a tour.
Jack was my tour manager.
Alfie was my opener on tour.
So we wanted tour memorabilia on our arms and we thought matching.
Initially it was going to be,
um,
a tattoo of Winnie the Pooh.
Okay.
Because we had an in joke about Pooh.
Okay.
Like Pooh,
like Pooh,
like excrement.
Yeah.
Poop,
as you would say
winnie the poo what do you mean by poo yeah yeah oh poop poop so we were backstage i don't think
i've told anyone on the pod this yet on the pod i just think i've told you no you've told on the
pod yeah so we were backstage at leicester square theater in l and uh Alfie was singing the song Roses by Outkast
yeah and he says uh roses really smell like do do do and I said it's not do do do it's poo poo poo
and he was like I'm pretty sure it's do do do and I said no it's definitely poo poo poo I think it's
both it's not it's poo right it's poo poo poo? It's poo poo poo. Right? Because we played it.
And as he sung it, Alfie said the sentence,
hmm, it's poo, isn't it?
Right?
And it made me laugh harder than it should have
as a professional comedian.
But it just, it really got me.
And I was like, that sounded like you'd like
tested like chocolate off like your baby's leg
and i'm going no it's poo isn't it never do that never do a lick test
it's chocolate in this nappy no my mistake i've done it again putting your finger in a pile of shit on the sidewalk oh it's poo so then the next day we went and got a pastry
and uh jack said jack was like there's a spice in this that i just can't i can't quite put my
finger on what the spice is in this pastry and i said it's poo isn't it and we all laughed harder
than again we should have and then that just became a running
joke for the any time you had the opportunity to say the sentence it's poo isn't it uh and then
we thought we would just get matching poo tattoos like actual poo yeah like a poo emoji and then we
were going into starbucks i need one of these so you need to open the toilet otherwise i'm gonna
have to do it in this. So... It's cowboy art on a Guinness glass.
I can't remember which one.
She's in me cowboy art.
I wouldn't have seen it.
Part of the dark stuff.
And then we were like, well, we could get a twist on Pooh,
which is Winnie the Pooh.
And then none of us wanted Winnie the Pooh on us
because we thought, you know, women might see that
and think we were like autistic children or something.
Yeah, or pedophiles.
Yeah.
Isn't Winnie the Pooh a woman?
No.
No.
Wasn't that the book?
Well, he's got no genitalia.
He doesn't wear pants.
Winnie's a lady's name.
How do you know Winnie the Pooh's
got no genitalia?
He's got a pencil.
He's got no pencil.
Yes, he has.
No, he doesn't. Famously, obviously. He's got no pants. I feel has no he doesn't he's got no pants i feel like that's like a
confab this is a mandela effect do you know what in my head he's got red pants on
now if you mandela affect me backwards i could see the red pants but i think he's got no pants
no that's when he goes to a wedding he He wears matching... Red top. Do you know what poo-bearing is?
Yeah.
Yeah, when a man's just got his T-shirt on and he's not about...
It's like literally the ugliest a man can ever be.
But it's the sexiest a woman can be.
Yeah.
Which just goes to show how different we really are.
That's why we wear the poo as a woman,
because she's fit.
Do you think poo-bearing is the sexiest a woman can be?
Just a T-shirt with a pussy out?
Yeah.
Yes!
Guy who's clearly pretending to be straight good to know then
i'll make sure to tell my guy friends back in the states
do you not think that's sexy like just i think that's sexy but i'm a boobs guy though so i
you know i want to see the boobs god there's not many of us anymore you know
but all about the ass all All of them. I know.
Even the gays for the men.
Ever since wokeism destroyed our country.
By the way, gay men have never liked it.
That's not a modern thing.
You should just join in the bandwagon.
We all love ass.
We love boobs.
I like boobs.
I like boobs.
Boobs are fantastic.
No one's arguing about that.
But, do you know what I've always thought?
Hey,
isn't it mad
that we,
that we all like boobs
when they are just two
like big fatty lumps?
Like if they had them
on like their elbows,
you wouldn't find them attractive at all.
It's something about them being here.
But do you know why?
Javay says it,
doesn't he?
In the office.
The shape of it
reminds us of a
woman bent over
what kind of woman is this
you're saying you like boobs
because it looks like ass
the original ass guy
no one has ever seen
a great naked ass
and gone look
they look like tits
those ass cheeks
it's in the office
it's the nipple
the asshole
in that analogy
it goes back to
caveman time
like a built in thing
of oh that's a woman's arse
I actually think
it's from an evolutionary
point of view
because the bigger the tits
the more milk for your babies
that's true
yeah
it makes sense doesn't it
she's got massive tits
therefore me kids
not going to be hungry
can girls with AIDS
can they breastfeed
kids with AIDS
girls with AIDS
oh thank you they can breastfeed? Kids with AIDS? Girls with AIDS?
Oh, yeah.
They can breastfeed, but they do give the kids AIDS.
You can do it, but you know what's going to happen.
Yeah, don't do it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I just don't think they can get as much.
Like a thimble.
It's just a smaller cupboard, isn't it?
I think gay men can appreciate it. A mini fridge.
Gay men can appreciate it.
A mini fridge is a lot better.
Gay men can appreciate it. Looking just at me. Like can appreciate tits, though, can't they? A mini fridge is a lot better. Gay men can appreciate it.
Looking just at me.
Like, I reckon, you know, when you're like, oh, they don't love tits.
But I think even gay men will be like, absolutely cracking.
I think so.
I think so.
Well, gay men can appreciate an attractive woman the way I can appreciate how sexy men
can be with the nice faces.
Yeah.
And the chiseled jaw.
Yeah.
Women appreciate tits, too.
Everyone loves tits
yeah, there you go
they're like Raymond
that's what they pitched it as
everyone loves tits and they're like it's a bit on the nose
have you replaced tits with like
Ray Romano
it was a bit of a tit
I like the premise of the show
we love this
but have you thought about putting Ray Romano in instead of all these tits bit of a tit I like the premise of the show we love this great idea
but have you thought
about putting Ray Romano
in instead of all these
tits
what do you want to do
fantastic
the thing is
tits doesn't
it's not a very
appropriate name
is it
it's quite sharp
sounds sharp
tits
tits
what would you call them
a breast
is quite slimy
isn't it?
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
Ideally, the perfect.
Right.
There's a TV show that I didn't watch.
Right.
There's a TV show that I didn't watch
and you definitely didn't watch
because shock horror,
it didn't travel across the Atlantic very well.
It didn't travel across the maze.
And they have been just easing it in
but it can
because it's part
of their personality
they can do it
conversationally
in a podcast form
very sneakily
of course there was
of course there was
but you just
you just
either you've done it before
or it just felt
too
two pints of lager
and a packet of crisp
you need to sound round though
that isn't two pints
you need to sound
what they are.
Boobs.
Boobs is good.
They've got two O's.
Boobs.
Like, it sounds like what it looks like.
Tits doesn't, does it?
It sounds like...
Do you know why they're called boobs?
Because it's all the ways you see them, isn't it?
Capital B is from above.
O is in the front and the small B is the side.
That's why they're called boobs.
Is that right?
Yeah.
Well, if it isn't,
I've just made it up,
but it does.
Did you just make that up?
No, I've seen that before.
I don't think that is
the etymology of the word.
That is the most thoughtful thing
I've ever heard.
Let me have it.
The fuck?
I think it's been
reverse engineered,
but it is classed
that it works.
Yeah.
Something to do with
moo and boob.
I think that might be
boob.
Moo. Get him out the old nap. He. I think that might be. Boob. Moo.
Get him out the studio.
He's done.
The dairy.
He's done.
Moo.
Moo.
Boob.
Right.
What else has milk in them?
Milk.
What else has milk in them?
Cows.
What the cows say.
Moo.
Boobs.
Yeah.
Moo.
I thought moo was mantis
what's it
it comes from
booby that's the thing
and that was Spanish
Spanish and Latin
by the way you cannot
look it up and
say to us with a straight face
the etymology of boob is it comes from booby
that is what it is.
But it's from bulbous, as in bulbous.
You can't say to a woman, get your boobies out.
You can't, you're right.
You can't.
I love your boobies.
You can't say, get your bulbouses out.
From Latin, bulbous.
Not from moo, no.
Not from moo.
Surprisingly.
I'm surprised. For sex sex no american has ever gone really nice boobies that is a striking pair of boobies yeah no it
doesn't sound right does it what would you say i would if i was actually going to say to a girl
boobs also sounds childish to actually say to a person live. I'm going to come on your boobs is a weird...
I don't work.
It does for me.
But isn't tits British?
No, well...
No, it's American.
Is it?
Oh, I thought it was British.
Tits feels right.
Tits is the sexy one.
When you're talking about them, you're saying tits, aren't you?
So much of our language like that is Americanized, though, isn't it?
We've gradually... Pussy is American, isn't it? We've like, we've gradually.
Pussy is American,
isn't it?
Yeah.
And they've still got,
like we use it on the pod because it's like absurd that we use it.
Like the only time a Brit can say the word pussy is like Jordan sex because it has to be then.
And not everyone can pull it off.
No.
Really?
Pussy? Oh yeah. Pussy would be like, pussy's table stakes. Because it has to be then. And not everyone can pull it off. I don't think you're not using it. Really?
Pussy?
Oh, yeah.
Pussy would be like pussy's table stakes in America.
That's where you start.
Like it's a medical thing.
There's something wrong with my pussy.
It looks like your pussy has vaginismus.
Yeah.
You guys know what vaginismus is?
It's a spell, isn't it?
Like dirty pussy.
Harry Potter after dark.
Look that up.
But unfortunately,
you're going to have to clear your browser history after.
Oh,
we have to.
It's not the worst thing to check today.
It's not like just audible.
What do you say in sex?
If you can't pull off pussy,
what if you can't pull off pussy?
Is there another word?
Clout.
Minky moo.
There's no coming on minky.
No,
I can't even say that.
Just makes me think of boobs.
I'd say clout me.
Clout on that?
And the boobies.
Wow.
I'm trying to bring Biff back, but...
What's Biff?
Biff is another way of a vagina.
Biff?
Yeah, Biff.
That's the Welsh.
Really? That's a lovely town in Wales, Biff. I would love to come in that Biff. Biff is another way of a vagina. Biff? Yeah. Biff. B-I-F-F. That's the Welsh. Really?
That's a lovely town in Wales, Biff.
I would love to come in that Biff.
Yeah.
Honestly.
You can say that.
What did we tell Gabby?
Oh, yeah.
You know Gabby Bryan?
Yeah.
So when Gabby was on the show,
we taught her,
like we're sort of doing with you now,
we taught her Britishisms,
but especially Scouse isms yeah yeah
uh and we told her that uh what a man would say when he's going down on a woman is i want to moggy
your cunt and a woman would say to a man moggy me cunt right and we made it up on the spot
because it's rhythmically this moggy me cunt is the same as maddie mccann who's a famous
child who went missing oh she's famous because she went missing she wasn't famous when she went
just to be clear
you guys know the actress maddie mccann who subsequently went missing after landing her
first major role and uh i forgot to tell gabby after the
record that we'd made it up i seen gabby in nashville three weeks ago and one of her friends
was asking me for some scousisms and i was teaching her and then gabby was like oh i've been telling
everyone about moggy me cunt and i lost my mind laughing at her and i was like we made that up
and she was like no you fucking didn't and i was like, we made that up. And she was like, no, you fucking didn't.
And I was like, no, I swear to God.
She was like, I've told hundreds of people.
How could she have told hundreds of people?
Hi, it's been a while.
Yeah, I'm doing really well.
Do you know what oral sex in Liverpool is?
It's moggy my cunt.
Mom, mom, put everything down.
Get dad.
It's the word cunt
in your country heavy?
Yeah.
We say that every third of the time.
But when you say cunt...
Sorry, that sounded racial.
I think only to Scandinavians.
So we say o.
You say a.
Cunt is how we say it, and it's all wrong.
Cunt's like when someone really...
You want to really...
How would you say twat?
Twat.
Twat is penis, right?
No.
A twat is a cunt.
Oh, really?
I thought a twat was a penis.
But you wouldn't say that in sex.
No.
A twat is a cunt is a bit...
Like Harry Twatter?
We would say twat. Twat. I love theatter we would say twat twat i love the way north
americans say twat yeah but if someone called you a cunt would you be like oh shit they hate me
no if someone called me a cunt i'd think oh shit they're british right you you wouldn't call him
fuck this guy's british no i think if someone called you a cunt over here you'd go
I've been called it
three times
and I forgot them all
you're out in the street
you're parking up
and someone goes
you're a cunt
you're like
hey it's just us
it's just how we talk
no it does have a bit of venom
it's very weighted
in the States though
like oh my god
what a bad word
over here
it's thrown around
if you called a woman a cunt
like say you were fighting
with your girlfriend
if you guys were fighting with your let me just thrown around. If you called a woman a cunt, like say you were fighting with your girlfriend.
If you guys were fighting with your girlfriend.
Let me just stop you there.
If I called my wife a cunt,
I'd be sleeping on that couch
for a while.
Okay, okay, okay.
It's not,
it's not like,
these are scousers.
It's like,
they're like,
yeah, what's happening,
you cunt?
And that's,
you know,
it's your nana's birthday.
Yeah.
You old bitch.
Like,
it might be a little different.
Most places, you can't be like,
listen, you cunt, finish the washing up.
It's not going to go down well.
Even if I saw my girlfriend and I was like,
and she's British, and I was like,
what's happening, you cunt?
She'd kill me.
No, but that's fine.
You could do that to Laura.
You could walk in and say that,
and she wouldn't be upset.
With that tone of voice.
What?
What are we talking about which wife
you could though she wouldn't go
oh no she'd go
you should film yourself walking
into your house today and go
what's happening you cunt
you can blame us instantly
she'll know
listen she knows who I work with.
We've been together 10 years.
I've never walked by her.
All right, you cunt.
I've got two kids as well, Luke.
All right, you little cunt.
I've had a good cunting day.
Off to the garden office I go.
How are all three of my favorite cunts tonight?
My little cunt.
She's a clear bastard as well, isn't she?
To be honest.
Yeah.
Listen, I don't think
it's as
you know I know
what you mean
like if you go to
parts of Glasgow
it's nothing
it's just
another syllable
alright cat
that's how Tom Screen
answers the phone
every time I call him
alright cat
yeah
I'm Thomas aren't I
you guys could get away
with anything for me
like you could
if you said it
in a friendly enough tone
I would believe anything you guys could call me the n- me. Like you could, if you said it in a friendly enough tone,
I would believe anything.
You guys could call me the N word.
I'd be like, ah, I guess they're doing that now.
Oh, I can call Laura that.
Oh, that's fine.
Laura's fine with that.
How are my favorite little...
Do you think British people are lovely? Like in the States?
Is that really a stereotype?
Why did you get your ideas?
We can say anything.
We went from the N-word banter.
I moved on.
Just ignore that N-word banter.
Do you think British people are lovely?
They're from sausages.
I think, yeah, I think you guys are lovely.
No, you know what I feel like when I walked around?
So I walked around Liverpool a little bit.
I've only been here a couple of, great city.
It's, you know what I felt like is like,
I was ready to like sweep a chimney.
Right?
Yeah.
It's like a chimney sweep kind of vibe.
Where are you staying?
Where are you staying?
Just the brick.
You didn't see the big brick chimneys.
You guys have chimneys.
In the Victorian core.
Yeah.
We see all that that often.
It's just normal.
To me, that's like, we got to sweep these things.
Who's sweeping these?
Do you know what?
It makes sense.
Yeah.
I've got a chimney.
Why have we never had a chimney sweep?
I think it needs a sweep.
I think it's too on the nose for you guys to do it.
Yeah, regularly.
I've got a log burner. Yeah, you need a sweep. I think it's too on the nose for you guys to do it. Yeah, regularly. I've got a log burner.
Yeah, you need a sweep.
You got to take the piss out of it and be like,
oh my God, have you time traveled?
But actually, this is a good shout.
I've got a chimney and it needs sweeping.
Lewis, what are you doing later?
This is exactly what I pictured this podcast would be,
is I'm like, someone should sweep your chimney.
And you guys are like, you're right.
In New York then, so you've got no chimneys. No chimneys. How does are like you're right um in uh new york then so you got no chimneys
no uh what does how does santa get into your house sorry you'll have to try me one more time
with that question how does father christmas yeah yeah oh how does santa get in because
he comes down the chimney we don't have him
we have a gremlin with money in his hands and he climbs Oh, so you don't get it. It says there. I haven't got the paper. How does Santa get into any...
We have a gremlin with money in his hands
and he climbs down the wall.
A Gringotts banker.
He digs his nose into the side of the wall
and then he uses it to belay himself down.
Okay, how does Santa get into the houses
of people on the good list?
I think...
Wow, Jews are on the bad list.
They don't get any presents. I mean, we're certainly not like definitely on the good list? I think... Wow, Jews are on the bad list. Okay, don't get any presents.
I mean, we're certainly not like
definitely on the good list.
Certainly not as of late.
I mean, I don't know.
You guys are so not wanting to take this back.
I didn't know that.
That's interesting, you cunts.
Tastes like...
That's poo, isn't it?
You guys remember from before?
We don't have to talk about it.
Do you gig down south as a New Yorker?
Because it was Adam's idea to go to Nashville.
We fucking loved it.
And we even went out into the sticks.
We drove out to Eaglesville, Tennessee and whatnot.
Eagleville.
Eagleville.
Oh, it's different.
No, there was no S.
Only one eagle there, mate.
Oh, sorry.
It was like a population of like 50.
It was such a small town.
Do you like gigging,
because Bill Burr did the Red State tour, didn't he?
Oh, dude, I love that,
because I say a lot of things.
I would say if you watched me on stage,
it would be sort of hard to know my political affiliations.
But I think that's what comics should be like.
That's my view.
I'm very liberal, but I would prefer that you sort of not be able to a hundred percent tell. Sometimes I feel like
I have to say it to save, you know, a thing that's going in a certain direction, but I prefer when I
go to like, uh, okay. So I had this gig in, uh, Ur urbana illinois which is actually a college town it's a pretty
blue town but it is it's a it's red surrounding it and my favorite show is when the liberals come
up to me and they're like thank you for saying that and then and then the republicans come up
to me and they're like we know what you really meant by that and i'm like that like if you're
confused and both of you like me because you just thought I was fucking with the other side, that to me is a win.
And the comedy's winning, isn't it?
Yeah.
Instead of a statement.
I always think a comedian's real job is to stand in the middle.
And I don't mean directly in the middle, but in the middle of both sides of an argument and point out the bollocks on both sides of it.
100%. So it doesn't matter which one I actually side with. I'm able to go,
even on the side I agree with,
is all the fucking bullshit
that they're perpetuating.
If you can't make fun of,
if you decide as a comedian
that one half of a,
like a ideology is unfunny,
you've already lost.
Because that's,
definitionally being a comedian
is that anything can be funny.
Have you ever gigged in front of 250
lesbians? You have got the paper!
Have you ever gigged in front of 250?
Is this like research you guys did on me? Nah, we guessed.
You've just got that look.
I do
kind of look like a cool lesbian.
You look like Andy Murray, if he was a lesbian. Yeah, Andy Murray's the tennis player? Yeah. I do feel like a like a cool you look like andy murray if he was a lesbian yeah
andy murray's the tennis player yeah yeah yeah i do feel like a lesbian andy murray thank you for
pointing that out no one says that to me anymore but i appreciate that every time i hear it uh
yeah i got my start opening for ashley gavin who's a lesbian comedian oh she followed me
recently oh yeah you should have her on she's great she's doing fringe i think yeah um but uh
she's awesome.
She got me my start.
But there, you know, you guys probably know these days it's like you become famous to
like a small chunk of, well, for you guys, probably a big chunk.
You guys are probably like, you probably can't go outside here in Liverpool, right?
No, we can.
Yeah.
I had to go and get some meat before.
Well done.
But you guys are like Raymond in Liverpool.
Like everyone.
No,
it's not that like,
there's a lot of like,
uh,
if we go on a night out,
we'll get stopped quite a bit for photographs and stuff.
But people are generally speaking,
really just sound and respectful.
People will just be like,
like you'll walk past them on the street.
Like you're like,
love the pod.
That's it.
Right.
And that's all you like as a general thing. street. They'll be like, you're all right, lads. Love the pod. That's it. Right. And just keep it moving.
As a general thing.
Yeah.
And then if you're on a night out
when people are a bit drunk
and they lose their sorts of social skills,
then people will want to put their arm around you
and tell you, you know,
every detail of their favorite episode.
Right, right, right.
But it's part of the job.
We've got the balance right.
Like not everyone knows us,
but the people who really like us love us.
Yeah.
It's so much better than being-
Do you like them?
It's so much better than being like them it's it's so much
better than being known by everyone and not having anyone give a fuck about you yeah like you'd much
rather have the balance of that and i like a lot it's a it's a nice broad spectrum really and they
just mainly will like comedy yeah that's the priority with everything see sometimes i meet
the people that come out to see me and i'm like do i suck
who are you pulling lewis
who are you pulling obviously a few you know what it is for me so my first tour
it was a hundred percent women between 22 and 24 years old class 100 percent loads of boobies so many boobies and even more cunts
biffs it was just a room full of biffs more
yeah it was uh everyone had one boob and two cunts it was a reverse
i'm not gonna argue safe for that woman man she doesn't exist but you know what it is is it's i think it's because i'm like liberal and and uh
i had a lot of videos that would be like me walking the line i'm like talking i only post
crowd work online but that's not you know my act is mostly not crowd work but you guys know how
that goes and uh but a lot of crowd work videos of me like talking to a trans person and just like playing off the expectations of what I might say if I were going to be offensive and not being offensive.
And in America, it's so polarized that you go into that algorithm of people that love that.
And then that's who you bring out.
And now it's sort of now I'm going on my third tour and it's sort of like just a very mixed crowd of like.
But it used to be people that would just come and chat
and then try to like hook up after the show.
And that would be why they came.
I also imagine, and we'll talk about that properly in a sec
because that must've been awful.
A friend of ours is a really great standup
and he's on like his seventh or eighth tour now, Paul Smith.
But all of his stuff started from crowd work clips
because he was the compere of the local comedy club, Hot Water.
So he was on stage six nights a week,
just in every section getting two or three clips.
You're talking like nine a day at times,
and they'd just constantly churn them out to subtitles.
He's now, I think he's just sold 750,000 tickets
on his latest tour.
It's just an absurd.
It's got to be one or two.
It's Gervais, Jimmy Carr, Paul Smith in this country.
It's absolutely absurd.
But he does get people going to his shows
who just want to be in the next video.
They want to be the heckler.
They want to be the guy.
So people want us at the front to be picked on yeah do you have that yeah yeah and i the thing i tell them
is i'm like it's not gonna the second you know what i mean if they're trying to be funny because
usually those people are trying to be funny so you ask them a question you're like what do you do
and they're like what do i do and they don't actually say anything funny they usually just
say something normal with a funny voice or intonation or as a question.
And I'm like, I need you to not be funny
so I can be funny, you know?
So I just say that.
I'm like, if you try to be funny and I try to be funny,
we both look insane.
If I can make fun of you about either what you're saying
or the way you're saying it, then we can make this fun.
Do you do a bit at the start where it is crowd work
just to sort of give them that? Or do you do a bit of the start where it is crowd work just to sort of
give them that or do you just do your show the opposite i get on and i don't do any crowd work
between before like 30 minutes in because i want them to know like i want to be killing off material
because then the crowd work will really kill but i want them to because when i started touring i
think people were nervous they liked me but they didn't know you know I've only been a stand-up for five years
and I've only been touring for three which is crazy it's a fast transit so my first time touring
I had a fan base but I didn't know what to do and I didn't have the confidence and I would get on I
would feel like I was nervous they were nervous for me and I realized like if I can just once I really like started to get the hour down I was like if
I can just get on and kill then it's like all the nervousness is out of the room and the show's
already good and then I can start doing the crowd work and start like really yeah yeah yeah what
Paul does is he opens for his opener so he goes on and does 20 minutes of crowd work gives them what they've
sort of bought into and then goes after the interval i'm gonna do no more crowd work i'm
gonna do the show and here's your support act support act does 20 the first half is then 40
minutes interval and then paul goes on and does between an hour and like an hour and 20 in the
second half it's all just stuff and it's like it gives them what they want straight away he's like you've had that now happy okay i'm gonna do what i actually want to do in the second half. It's all just stuff. And it's like, it gives them what they want straight away. And he's like, right, you've had that now.
Happy.
Okay, I'm going to do what I actually want to do
in the second half.
That's a great way to do it.
I've thought about different ways of doing it,
but I think my insecurity is like,
there's nothing less funny than crowd work
that's just not working.
And it can't always work.
Like sometimes you just don't find something.
So I'd rather do that with the
confidence of knowing i've already established myself is funny and i think that puts just for
my own i think so much of it is like what gets you loose on stage you know what i mean because
for a while i was just really tight on stage like i would be nervous about like oh the fuck these
people are here to see me i'm the show if it's not good it's you know so now it's just like i
just know i'll be loose if i've killed with you you know, if I've done my best 20 up top,
I just will feel really loose.
Class.
And you're doing London.
Oh yeah.
I'm doing the,
I'm doing Leicester square theater in London.
Such a great room.
Yeah.
I'm excited for that.
It's just every sightline is perfect.
It's one level.
And it,
it feels just like the best comedy club.
It's like a perfect,
like low ceilings.
It's like a square.
Like I've never been in them. Cause the only clubs i've done are new york like i've never been to
the other places in the states but i imagine it's what like a really good improv's like like it's
just a low ceiling and they're all just in front of you in like a rectangle you've only done what
like the cellar in new york cellar stand stand up new york and the New York Comedy Club.
Okay, cool.
Yeah, New York has one of the best rooms, New York Comedy Club.
Yeah.
Sellers are great.
So when you first toured, you were single,
and a lot of girls were just coming.
Yeah.
I mean, I'm sure there's been parallels made between that
and what Matt Rife has had in terms of him blowing up,
and it feels like he garnered a huge audience yeah not
that he isn't good he's great and his clips were good but because they're like he's beautiful yeah
is he great i'll be honest mate i thought you could have been his bezo i was just trying to
be dibble i know i saw i just saw a little like flicker of sincerity leave your eyes
as you said it was great i was like i can read your face
you're gonna be back in here we'd have him on in a heartbeat you know he's been there 10 minutes
and he was just like he's ordered the answer and he's like you look full of shit, baby.
There was a little blankness that came over the eyes.
You looked at my forehead when you said he was great.
I thought you were going to go, Matthew?
How dare you insult daddy?
Were you about to say you didn't really know how to handle that or you didn't fuck around or what?
Yeah, I just didn't know.
I mean, at the time, think like my goal is to make there's something that people like about
my crowd work and i like doing crowd work and then there's like material you want to make you want to
make it all sound like it's crowd work kills because it feels in the moment if you can make
your material kill like crowd work kills that's kind of the goal. I don't like Matt Rife at all, but it was a similar
audience. By the way,
he is actually a really nice guy, but
he stinks, bro.
He stinks.
I'll say it. Whatever.
Whatever. Anyone, I mean, you can leave it in.
If he's watching this,
it's your call.
Why are you guys all getting silent now?
No, no, we're just letting you talk.
Remember cunts and poo bears?
Just doing callbacks when I get nervous.
Albie O's is shite.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Awful.
You know what I didn't like, though?
Okay, so I did crowd work.
People came for crowd work.
I was insecure that the material wasn't good.
He clearly had the same insecurity on a much higher level.
He gets a lot of shit because he blew up.
I don't think he should get shit for being successful.
The one thing that made me think he stunk that I thought was really lame is in the last special when he's like, but I guess I only forget the black voice.
But that's, you know, awful, too.
But sorry, black voice is wonderful if you're black.
But one of my favorite voices, by the way, looking directly at the camera. I love black voice if you're black but uh one of my favorite voices by the way looking directly at the camera
i love black voice if you're black so but what he the saying but i guess i only do crowd work to me
as i'm like it's so lame to be like i know how to do material and then to say that so on the nose
like i get the insecurity i had the same thing but then i was like why don't i just work at my
material so hard that it speaks for itself it's not quite there yet it makes it corny like yeah like you can't
as a comic be that sincere about yourself in a positive way so lame like comics you're not allowed
to do that on stage like if you're in a conversation with like an interviewer and they're
like what you actually think about this and you're having're having to do stand up and then be like,
and aren't I just the best?
It's just like,
it's so such an absurd thing to dropping the mic intentionally is crazy.
Accidentally dropping the mic during a standup set is pretty funny.
Like literally just losing control of it.
But like saying something embarrassing about yourself at the end and then doing that you know and then i found out it was herpes that's fine but i guess
i just come prematurely every time but uh yeah that's why i like pick the mic up and you've still
got 15 minutes to go yeah fumbling around for it on the ground but trying to make eye contact with the audience while you do
i uh but you know what i just won't put out a special until i think the material
is really it's probably at least two more years until i think like now i think it's like decent
i feel like you can feel it and anyone that can't feel it is like they're there's like the right
level of delusion but if you want to be good you need you can't have all the delusion so my stance where i'm at is i'm like
it's a solid hour it's doing well for the people that really like me it's doing really well but
until it kills everywhere i'm not going to put out a special and are you going to keep doing that hour
and tweaking it or are you going to i'm trying to figure that out i because i have this chunk
that i keep sharpening it i know i've i have a chunk that i fucking love that's like my favorite it's about my sister who's retarded and i just to be
i say retarded not to be offensive i say to be clear because if i say if i say special needs
you guys are going to be like does she have adhd so i say retarded and then some people get mad but
nobody's confused so but i have this chunk about her and I, and I say the word and I, I love doing that chunk, but I've been on tour with it for like,
I've been working on it like two and a half years. So I don't know. I can't really bring
it back to the same market. Like three, even though it's changing. Yeah. I know what you
mean. I don't know about doing the same material. And then it's like, do I write a new 10 about her?
But then I'm the retarded sister guy every year. Like every year, it's like, ah, what's he going
to say this year about his sister? So I don don't know but i'm trying to figure that out right now i don't go
back fully on tour till the fall so that's some time like when you love something that much and
it's hard to just like kill it yeah it's hard to kill it
can i i need to I need to ask Lewis. Even if that's what she needs.
And by she, I mean the material.
Can I ask about the word retarded?
Yeah, please.
Just because I feel like it was,
it was pretty much benched by everyone,
but I've never wanted to bench it completely.
In the States where we are,
because I listened to your mom's house
and they are hard hard are wording like and they always have yeah but is there a whole
is that going to get your criticism or is it just it will i mean it's it's starting to definitely
come back in a way that like a lot of comedians are saying it it's to the point where like it
used to be almost a
punch line to say because everyone was like oh but now if you go to like austin or a scene like that
everyone's saying it and it's like okay you're not going to get a laugh unless you write something
you're saying something with it the reason why i'm not against it given that i'm like actually
close to that community is i'm like the biggest issue facing them is not the word. It's that they are disabled.
Like, that's the problem.
You know what I mean?
It's not like a slur for any other group
where they're like completely,
the only thing keeping them back is oppression.
The thing keeping retarded people back is being retarded.
I mean, that is, you guys got to start laughing.
Otherwise, I look fucking insane right now. What's interesting about it is, you guys got to start laughing. Otherwise, I look fucking insane right now.
What's interesting about it is,
you know so many people who are involved in that community
or are in that community or are close to that community
who have the exact same point of view on it as you do,
where they're like, exactly what you've just said,
and it's fine, and it's my sister, and I'll say what I want.
But then there's other people close to that community
who are like, it really hurts them.
And both of those groups of people
are always going to exist.
And you are risking that there's going to be someone
in your show or whatever,
especially if you're not,
like I imagine when you use that word on stage,
at least just before it or within the next few minutes,
you will contextualize it by adding to the fact
that you've used it, I'm close to to that community i think when a comic just uses it and they've got no experience of it i
think that's when people get upset by it because they're like hang on you've got no right to use
that word because you don't know what it's like to have someone in your life who has that struggle
yeah and shane gillis does like it's and then people will say like oh you think
you have the past like why do you think you can speak for your sister and i'm like well first of
all i i am her legal guardian and also i do have to speak for her because she can't really she
doesn't have like a sophisticated point of view on it herself and also like i'm not for it i'm just
not against it because i don't i think the biggest issue facing people with special needs is someone like close to that community is like long-term living care and opportunities to work.
Right.
Like the, I mean that those are the biggest issues and then words are third to that.
So it's not exactly like every other slur.
So when people say it is, I don't think that's true because the biggest issue facing other
marginalized groups is just that people are putting them down in that way.
But, yeah, I know it upsets people.
Generally on stage, I don't like to upset people for the sake of upsetting people.
But I think in this particular instance, I feel I have perspective and experience that makes me feel like.
And also I have like, I feel like for her to understand that that word is against her, I'd have to teach her that word and then teach her she should be offended you know what i mean so
that's like pretty crazy thing to have to do so i don't know when hermione gets really upset that
she gets called a mudblood but like two weeks before she would have never heard that way before
yeah there you go don't teach don't teach minorities slurs. That's the mistake.
If we never let them know what they are,
we can all use them.
Dip behind the back.
That's the point we were making.
Yes.
Keep them out.
That's the mistake.
Really good shout.
Not don't say the R word.
Just say corner. You know what I mean?
We need a break.
Final section.
How many of how many?
I've lost count.
Oh, come on.
Four and four, lad.
We've got a jingle, but I don't like it, Carl.
We need to...
Which one is it, baby?
We need to change the...
Play it.
I don't like it.
Play it.
They're about to play a bit of music.
We don't get to hear it.
Yeah.
They won't let me wear headphones,
and there's not one long enough for the guests.
This is the definitive for Room 102.
Oh, yeah.
102.
Shite.
Would you like to banish anything, Lewis,
into the...
Lucas.
Lewis.
Lucas.
Lucas.
Whatever.
People who get your name wrong.
Yeah, just pieces of shit who don't respect you really bother me i feel like such a biff
what we got okay let's start with i think this one probably is not that controversial but one uh i
would like to banish the elderly oh i've already put them in
yeah they're already in there are they in there you put them i put them in okay i hate the elderly
okay first of all if i want to hang out with someone racist at least someone uh it would be
great if i could someone i'll make it funny yeah so well old people are they can be funny
but i would like to someone that could walk around
without having to sit down.
It's weird to be hateful and fragile.
If you're going to be hateful, you should at least be tough.
Do you know what I mean?
Yeah.
It's weird to be like, I don't like immigrants
and then also sprain your ankle from walking down the stairs.
Like, you know what I mean?
If you're better than immigrants prove it to me but you're
you're you're on dialysis complaining about immigrants you should have to be better than
them at everything yes you should at least be able to beat them in a race which means
yeah that's a good thing it should be a one-in-one-out system the weakest we've got
race the new immigrants if you win you get to stay the immigrant doesn't if not
swap so that's what people say i don't want any weak vulnerable immigrants Weakest we've got, race the new immigrants. If you win, you get to stay. The immigrant doesn't. If not, swap.
That's what people say.
We just don't want any weak, vulnerable immigrants.
Is that what you're saying, Kyle?
I am saying that, yeah.
Just run it.
Just run it.
Just run it.
Not fighting, running, cooking, ironing.
Not swimming.
No, Easton, you're the paying ones.
They can swim.
All countries become like an olympics yes
and you just have to be good enough to stay here you've got to compete and if you don't you don't
you win your passport every year yeah we don't be out by the way no we wouldn't
well what do you think you're in the top half of fitness in the uk? Top half? Yeah. Probably. But 35 million?
Or 70 million?
Yeah, yeah.
But what if you,
what if your borders
were open to everybody
and then you had to do
an athleticism test?
That's what you're talking about.
Yeah, if it's like
running and the...
Well, you know,
it's not just athleticism.
We can do other...
Yeah.
It'll be better in every way.
You can just do
some really fucked up...
I don't hear you going,
by the way.
No, they're going to beat me
at everything
if I win at one a stick. I mean... I can't do a Sudoku if it's don't know where you're going, by the way. No, they're going to beat me at everything if I win at one, I stick.
I'm in.
I can't do a Sudoku if it's about that.
Some Romanian's going to absolutely blast me
and then I have to go to fucking Bucharest.
Is that how it works?
Yeah, you swap with them, yeah.
Oh, right.
Okay, cool.
Cheap beer.
I would be so into that.
If an immigrant came and was like,
right, it's a one-on-one against Jeff,
who's a big fat cunt,
and everyone hates,
that'd be great.
If you had to compete against a random person
from another country,
you got to pick the one thing it is, right?
Someone's trying to take your spot in New York
and they come to you and they're like,
Lewis, and you're like, my name's Lucas, right?
And then they're like, right, sorry, Lucas, right.
We've got this fella coming in.
I'm not going to tell you his name
because it's ethnically ambiguous, right? So what we're asking you, sorry, Lucas. Right. We've got this fella coming in. I'm not going to tell you his name because it's ethnically ambiguous, right?
So what we're asking you, Lucas,
is you've got to compete against them in one thing.
But if you win, you get to stay.
If you lose, you're going to John's country.
Ethnically ambiguous country.
Some country that is just as good.
No, it's not.
It's a shithole.
That's why John's trying to get in
what are you what are you picking hang on do you know the nationality before
no no they revealed this guy from new gig it was immigrant reveal yourself and then the lift comes
up yeah yeah yeah yeah let the emus and the crowd goes wild the immigrant comes up on a lift like
fucking john cena and the crowd goes fucking nuts it immigrant comes up on a lift like fucking John Cena.
And the crowd goes fucking nuts.
Is it a good question or what are you challenging?
Skiing.
Are you a good skier?
I'm a good skier.
I was a competitive skier.
And if you play the odds, chances are Viraj from Mumbai,
is he that good?
I was going to say,
I'm only fucked if people are trying to leave Norway and Sweden
and I just don't see them leaving.
They fucking love it over there.
The screen goes up and he's like, bring it on, motherfucker.
Oh, no, that was Viraj.
That was Viraj.
Bring it on, motherfucker.
My Norwegian went really Mumbai.
Yeah, that was something.
A Welshman who wakes in a curry house, isn't it?
Is that where the best skiers are from?
Like Norway and Sweden?
Switzerland and France? um is that where the best skiers are from like norway and sweden is that switzerland and america canada switzerland austria italians have got some good ones
italians yeah basically it's just a white jamaicans when they try it i imagine they'll be
good skiing so if they try it i believe they're great. Skiing's gone, by the way. Right.
Cocaine consumption?
Right.
Oh, he's Bolivian.
We're in South America.
You've got some wanting to leave.
But at least we die trying.
You end up living in Guatemala because you couldn't do as many lines as the immigrant.
That's not the worst, though, is it?
He's from Bolivia
you lose
now you're going to Bolivia
are you winning a sniff off
against like a Peruvian
sniff off
come on Pablo
let's fucking do it
the thing is
I know you're taking me
police in the country
let's swap numbers
stay in touch
you're a Sam
you got any numbers
it's so bad that
the sniff off
is the thing that
everyone thought of
for me straight away
I'd be I think I may may not go sport It's so bad that the sniff off is the thing that everyone thought of for me straight away.
I'd be, I think I may not go sport because I'm pretty shit at it.
Kissing women?
Oh yeah, kissing women.
Both of you have to fuck your wife.
And she picks you best.
There'd be a chance that I'd lose that as well.
I'm telling you right now,
that might end up a nil-nil.
You and your immigrant companion
living in Ghana together.
Me going back with Viraj,
you just can't please her.
Viraj, can I ask
you a question? Are you Norwegian?
Yes. Yes yes I am
yes we live in Norway together
what am I going with
I'm going with darts
you're going darts
yeah
I think that's what we went for
do you remember
I've done something similar to this
I saw you shooting darts before
that was cool
I've got quite good at darts
and it's not
massively worldwide is it
so I think you can't have darts
because I think you went there last time when we had a similar
question. It wasn't the same question because I went FIFA
and that would be my first choice again
but what I would probably say
is
trivia about Liverpool's
title winning season
John and Covid.
Then you would be fucked with a Norwegian.
If you get a Norwegian
then you'd be absolutely screwed.
I'm a season ticket holder. I'm a seasoned tikkertolder.
I'm the Indians.
Once again, that's my Norwegian.
Viking blood.
It's hard, isn't it?
Can I choose stand-up comedy
and we put a decibel measurer in the comedy club
and whoever gets the highest decibels?
Yeah, you're doing it in their country, though.
No, I'm not.
They're trying to get in here.
Doing a hot water on a Wednesday.
It's Don Ward with immigration.
You think you're going, who are you replacing?
Anyone who hasn't got a guitar.
What are you doing, Finn?
Don't say singing.
A decibel almost out of booze.
Boo!
So we can't do the consumption thing.
I reckon I could outsmoke a few people,
but we can't do that.
Would you back yourself from anywhere on the planet?
Yeah.
To outsmoke someone? Are you that much of a potsman yeah no i
could just handle it i would i would be how'd you lose you like you if you like dan if he doesn't
smoke so when he smokes he just has to go to bed immediately me too whereas i just i'm just to be
honest you another good way to think about it is if you lose, where are you going? Because the people that can outsmoke you live in Jamaica.
That wouldn't be that bad.
You live in the Caribbean.
So now we're talking.
Any bulbs going in places?
Yeah.
Most people in Amsterdam don't even pot, you know.
Like they ate the pot thing.
Yeah, it's like an annoying tourist.
Yeah.
I'm locking my answering.
Can I get an age age we did this when
when the elderly got managed 24 can i get an age that you think the elderly starts out so if you're
banishing the elderly yeah yeah because i'm 43 and i i think i didn't make the cut last time
oh no no no no i'm talking about real old 17 or i'm going 75 oh yeah what's the what's the
lifespan in amer America compared to,
is it lower in the States than the UK?
Probably, knowing us.
I mean, the lifespan's like high school.
That's when we, you know, lose most.
76.
Yeah.
I thought it was 79.
76.
76.
In the UK, it's 80.
Yeah.
You guys are dusting us.
Get an actual World Cup.
76.
In the UK is 80.
Yeah, you guys are dusting us. Get an actual World Cup.
What a fucking great way to think about it.
Ah, you fucking mugs.
Right, as it's done before, he's argued it well.
Can we give him?
Yeah, yeah.
We're giving him the other one.
It's him.
They're now in there twice.
They're now in there twice.
Just to reinstate, that is a a popular one did you have any others i
do i do um all right here's one uh sweaters for dogs i'm banishing those for a very simple reason
i don't like to think about the fact that many people in the world are starving
but when i see a dog wearing clothing you gotta go, people are dying in Africa, 100%.
Yeah.
Where's the connection here?
The connection is,
if we have enough money to put sweaters on dogs
when people are starving,
dogs shouldn't be wearing sweaters.
Can I join up with you and put dogs with jobs in?
Yes.
You mean like performer dogs or other?
No, we're talking about like GPs, receptionists, and old dogs. Dogs with jobs in? Yes. You mean like performer dogs or other?
No, we're talking about like GPs, receptionists,
and all dogs.
No, when someone's the side. My gastroenterologist is a dog,
and I really think that shouldn't be allowed.
I definitely have cancer and no one's helping.
No, when you go to the airport
and there's like three dogs in work,
there's people who haven't got jobs.
Yeah, 100%.
You want to take this?
You can't just train a human
to sniff the fucking Charlie out of Dan's pockets
on his way to fucking Monaco with his uncle.
Right, no, I think it's just because it looks weird.
I don't think it's because they can't do it.
I can smell a lovely roast in someone's house. No, no, it is they can't do it. I can smell a lovely roast in someone's house.
No, no, it is
they can't do it.
You can't get Dave,
get Dave in on a lead.
Go on.
Find the coke, Dave.
Why put him on a lead?
Why?
Just walk him over and go.
No, I know you sound a lot.
Just Joe Biden-ing
everyone in the airport.
Yeah, Dave's got the scent.
Dave's got the scent.
I put it to you.
Any dog a job, any job a dog can do, a human can do.
Get me the list of any dog jobs.
Guide dog.
Yeah, guide person.
Just walk in front of them.
True.
Better.
Where did you want to go?
Better.
Better.
That is better.
That is better.
Pay them as well.
Why can't people have that job, actually?
That's a really good question.
Exactly.
Police dogs just get a big fella.
I think the reason, especially in 2024, actually that's a really good question exactly please dogs just get a big fella i think just i
think the reason especially in 2024 with social media and stuff i think the reason you can't have
people being guide dogs is a lot of the downtime with blind people would be quite boring and you
just end up on your phone and then you can't even show your mate hey have you seen this because
obviously they haven't by the way all, all of these things, admin dog.
Admin dog.
What do you think?
Therapy dog.
What do you think?
Military hunting shepherd.
Yep.
Guide dogs.
Truffle hunters.
I don't know about that one.
Oh my God.
Lesbians.
Police dogs.
Give these jobs to people who haven't got them.
Yeah.
Stop doing dogs jobs.
Fuck complaining about immigrants doing jobs.
What about dogs doing jobs?
Can we give all the jobs to humans first?
Thank you.
And then if we have homeless people, let those humans be dogs.
Seizure prevention dogs.
Okay, sorry.
That was too much out of me.
Stop giving dogs jobs.
They don't want them.
They want to play with balls. They do want them. They don't want them they want to play with balls they do want
them they don't some dogs want a purpose call they don't know where purpose is no but they know what
the feeling is sheep dogs particularly yeah if dogs have jobs humans can be pets that's my rule
i've thrown that in and you can throw dogs with jumpers on top i disagree i think dogs look dead
cute in clothes and i'll spend my money on what I want.
Yeah, and I don't want to deal with sniffer daves at the airport.
Oh, fuck.
Am I losing this one?
Yeah.
You and Carl have both had it rejected.
And I've got jumpers for my dog.
Fuck.
Sorry.
So there you go.
They stay out.
All right, let's make it best of three.
Lucas.
All right.
I'm between two. One is a a group of people and one is a behavior
i think let's just given what we've just done in the last bit let's go with behavior yeah
all right i don't like it when people drive slow in our left lane so for you that would be the right
lane yeah just shoot them just to tap just a tap-in. Yeah.
I mean, that's an easy one.
Put that one in and do the other one.
The speed limit is actually a bare minimum.
Yeah.
But forget the speed limit.
It's the passing lane.
So you're passing or you're on the fucking other one.
Yeah.
We've said this.
This is well-trodden on this podcast.
Straight in.
Okay.
I don't like dyslexic people.
Bonus.
Just read it.
Just read it.
They organize the letters for you.
Why are we jumbling them again?
I don't understand dyslexia.
You haven't got it.
I know.
But I don't understand it.
I'm dyslexic for dyslexic people.
They confuse me.
So I get the feeling,
but I don't like that they do it. I'm sure it's really difficult,
but I don't get it.
There's calculus,
the thing as well.
You do the same thing
with numbers.
Yeah.
I think it's just your brain,
isn't it?
We can't help it.
Julian Dean's got a great joke
about that.
Go on.
He says,
I shouldn't do a comic joke
on the podcast.
He's probably still doing it
in his act.
Well, if it's Julian Dean,
it's fire.
Go and watch him.
It's a tricky one, watch him it's tricky one
isn't it because uh i like i am a moron with spelling and i'd love to pin it on dyslexia
i'd love to be like it's because i'm dyslexic it's not because i'm a bit thick and i can't
remember how to spell stuff so like it must be torture if you genuinely look down at a page and
it's all over the shop
but how many just thickos are hiding in the in the group hiding in the shadows yeah yeah
the dyslexia moniker similar to that people that use the wrong two there and your and stuff that
yeah yeah just i just don't care enough like i love i actually like it when people do that
because then i get to be like, don't you mean this?
I love getting to be like,
yeah.
I used the wrong one.
Especially when people are being a gobshite on the internet and commenting.
It's a free win, isn't it?
Don't you mean there?
They're going to make the best points in the world.
If you've lost, then I've won.
And they know, that's all they got.
I'm dyslexic. Don't know what they got. Dyslexic.
Don't you mean
they should start
bombing Palestine?
Although,
I say this about
the dyslexics.
I think they get
some pretty cool
pink tinted glasses.
What?
You think they do
or they do?
Who gets pink tinted glasses?
Is that a UK thing?
I think it's a UK thing.
They use the yellow
paper.
Dyslexia.
Anastasia has got dys... I think, i think it's a uk thing they use the yellow dyslexia anastasia has got this
i think i think that's one i felt it then i think that's one of the things they they go listen i
know it's bad and looking at screens is hard work and all the numbers are jumbled but why don't you
just look through rose tinted glasses literally and they send them rose tinted glasses so then
they're dyslexic but people are concentrating
on the fact
they look like paedophiles
oh yeah
they look like
a lad we know
who wears Oakley sunglasses
don't they get yellow
pieces of paper as well
over the top
right
because that helps
because apparently
it's black and white
that fucks it
it's like a lawyer's pad
they write in yellow
a lot of books
are like yellowed pages now
I wonder if that
and that's why the yellow pages
is yellow pages as well
it's so popular with
dyslexic people as well it's all you read they still use that now it's the only thing they can
read what's this where will i get my model railway from that's what you're going for i think that's
autistic people i used to go for the other page yeah you're getting your people confused that's
the autism page yeah wait what do the glasses do?
Other than make them look like pedophiles.
I don't know, but...
That would be a bad defense in court.
I'm not a pedophile, I'm just dyslexic.
I thought she was 41.
I thought I was fucking cads.
Just accidentally done Julian Dean's joke.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
Ow!
So his joke is, I'm dyslexic
so I'll get like
dogs and God
mixed up
and like my uncle
he's dyslexic
but with numbers
he gets like 12 and 21
mixed up
I'm dyslexic
he's a pedophile
ah nice
sorry Julian
I didn't do it on purpose Julian
it's my joke now
yeah well
I don't know if it helped
with the dyslexia
but it made a
a loss
you had a drink?
yeah
I used to go to the other pages with them
finding things to send to people
meat was popular
bouncy castles
bouncy castles and
meat
yeah
or to a pedophile's eye
no we used to go to the yellow pages
find something that you could order
to your house
and then just order order to a random address
like a wholesale meat bouncy castle skips and then just go pay on delivery they've done it to me
and i'll be honest the bouncy castle is not that unwanted when it turns up you're like
and then it's the best the meat not so much no much. No, like a lot of meat. Oh, I'm sorry, like a thousand pounds.
I can't put in the dyslexics.
We've got a lot of, you know,
I'm going to be that guy and be like,
hey, they're out here.
Put them in room 103, they won't know.
They're out here.
Nice.
Let them hang.
Nice.
We've got some from listeners.
Morgan Lee says, room 102, small toilet cubicles.
Public toilets that when you sit down your knees are
touching the door or arms or a touch i need space to poo me if i'm got like it like disabled toilets
are should be the standard something to hold on to just like space by the way carnival i've been
on the carnival dive for a couple of weeks. It's cured me, IBS.
You're pooing solid?
No, but I'm pooing less.
So many things about to die for him to have a solid poo.
I got to say, I have IBS in the other direction.
I'm constipated all the time.
When I'm in a little cubicle, I feel like it's squeezing the shit out of me.
I'm like, there's nowhere to turn.
And then I just shit it. It's like the only way is down yeah it does help me legitimately scare me because they're small no because they're low
and the water's too high i like that and then do you yeah i like when one end of the shit is in
the water and the other is connected to your asshole i feel like I'm one with the elements.
Surely every old American man has balls covered in water.
Yeah.
It's like,
you've noticed ours
are quite deep in low water.
Yeah.
Yours are like big and high
and it's scary.
I don't,
old men's balls
just dip in the toilet.
Probably.
Yeah,
but they've cracked,
they've cracked the flush.
Their flush is great.
So smart.
Have a little foot flush
kick flush
yeah
well smart
yeah great
and hard
if flush is hard
you can put a lot of shit
Morgan we're giving you that one
Sam says
as an atheist
I'm sticking vocal atheists
in room 102
no one cares
that you believe in nothing
I'd rather
hear about you believing
in a hippie
in sandals
that can turn water
into pinot grigio
well I am you're
the vocal atheist i mean i'm not until someone goes hey you don't believe in god do you and
then i'll talk about it because it would be mental if at that point i wasn't a vocal atheist but as
soon as someone's got faith i'm i'd rather just shut the fuck up about it i won't really yeah
i'd like genuinely jealous of anyone who believes they're
going to a nice place and it's going to be them the nana and henry the eighth for eternity like
that looks great i am to that me to get me there genuinely jealous i'll leave you to it it looks
sound i think it's a form of mental illness whatever that's sound but i don't go to them
and give them shit about it i I only talk about my atheism
when pressed on it.
I'd love you to find Christ.
Would you though?
Yeah, I think it'd be great.
As the podcast First Jew,
and yeah, I just named myself that,
I would also love you to find Christ.
Oh, we're even remotely the First Jew.
Really?
No.
You guys don't have any here, do you?
We've had people on though who are.
Okay.
Are you still religious?
No.
No. No, I just, I don't believe in God, but I believe there's like something going. Okay. Are you still religious? No. No.
No, I just, I don't believe in God,
but I believe there's, like, something going on.
That's what I believe.
Yeah.
We're the same fucking guy.
Are you spiritual rather than religious, then?
I wouldn't even call it that.
I'm just like, it can't be that there's no reason for anything.
That's what I think.
Yeah.
I think there's something else.
I just don't know who's running it.
Yeah.
I don't think we possess the intellectual capacity
to understand what it is.
I've said this.
Cats.
So my...
Jody F1.
Jody F1.
Jody F1.
No, do you know the F1?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know, cats.
As in the animal.
Yes.
Cats aren't aware of that, are they?
It isn't in their world, is it?
The F1?
Correct.
So, like, there's a thing...
That's his evidence for God.
Because cats can't possibly fathom the idea of the Formula One.
That's what you're talking about.
Right.
Humans can't understand.
I love that analogy.
That's brilliant.
You can't even fathom it because it just doesn't exist.
You have like a slight, I don't know if it's autism,
but something makes you brilliant.
Yeah, it might be.
You're the Formula one to my cats
you know what i mean i can't figure out what the fuck is going on but i like it we can't understand
god because we i mean not that i i am actually atheist but like because we're not meant to yeah
this is by the way this stance looks fucking great yeah that listen it's complicated and the things
that have been offered up as an explanation, not for me. There's something.
I'm just going to get on thinking there might be something.
That same sound.
I wish I could buy into that.
It's like the church of maybe.
It's hedging your bet.
That is what I'm in.
I'm the church of maybe.
So you're classing yourself as agnostic then rather than...
Yeah, everyone's agnostic.
Yeah.
Absolutely everybody's agnostic.
Agnostic just means I don't know, and no one knows.
Everyone's agnostic.
Everyone believes. And actually, I means I don't know, and no one knows. Everyone's agnostic. Everyone believes.
And actually, I suppose I'm atheist as well,
because atheist is just a rejection of theory.
It's a theory.
It's anti-theory.
So I'm against the Christian theory.
I'm against the Jewish theory.
I'm against Muslim theory.
Can we clip that part where he said,
I'm against the Jewish theory?
Just stop after Jewish. I'm against the theory. Can we clip that part where he said, I'm against the Jewish theory? Just stop after Jewish.
I'm against the Jewish,
and then we can just
cut to my face.
I think we put anyone
who thinks they 100% know
in room 102.
Yeah.
Including devout atheists
or whatever you want to call them.
Yeah, it's both ends of it.
If you're heckling
at Sunday service,
then you're in room.
Like if someone's like going to church
and he's being like on the fourth day,
he said, no, he never.
You're full of shit, John.
That is a vocal atheist, isn't it?
What happened on the fourth day?
What?
What happened on the fourth day?
Played FIFA.
Got out of line.
Out of line and played FIFA.
He was getting tired.
Llamas.
I'm not resting. Only llam getting tired. Llamas. I'm not resting!
Only llamas.
Fourth day, llamas.
Fourth day was just llamas.
I'm well there, actually.
I'll have a go.
I've done well there.
Sam, you can have it.
I know he was talking.
It's just that.
I've done well there, actually.
One more from Jonathan Flounders.
Room 102.
People who rave about Fanta Lemon and Lays on holiday.
Both shite, get in the bin.
No, they're not.
They're both class.
They're both great, but it's the people who don't show.
Right, can we just...
Listen, we have an American guest.
We do.
We go on holiday to Europe.
Their crisps and their sody are slightly different.
Like, it's the same branding, basically,
but it's slightly different,
and people fucking buzz off it
fanta lemon in europe on the continent tastes a little different it's like mexican crisps look
the same got a slightly different name is fucking elite isn't it it is it's so fucking good on hot
so you go say you go down to mexico yeah is there fuck no where do you go on holiday? Florida. But he hates the elderly.
Yeah, not Florida. Florida's just guns
and dying people.
Is that honestly the only place where guns should be allowed?
The most one would be on the way.
And where would you go on vacation?
Caribbean.
Caribbean.
I'd come here, maybe.
This is kind of a vacation for me. I'm working, but this is nice.
Try the crisps. So wait, so they don't like... I would come here, maybe. This is kind of a vacation for me. Like, I'm working, but this is nice. Yeah.
Try the crisps.
Yeah.
So wait, so they don't like,
so they love Fanta lime and lemon?
Just it tastes, you know what they're doing? Tastes a little different.
You know what they're doing?
This tastes dead good
while they're in a really expensive hotel
sat on their ass in the sun.
That's what they're doing.
They're going, being on holiday is great, isn't it?
All of the Fanta's made to a different color.
It's the same as going to America and having chocolate
and it's minging.
Yeah.
American chocolate is shit.
Also, just go to a boss man shop and have fucking ruffles.
They're holiday crisps.
You just need to go to the right shop.
A boss man shop, by the way, is a shop run by Asian man.
Okay.
You guys call Asian people bosses here bosses here no they call those bosses
so like you'll go in and be like boss man what you want you know okay and then on your way
it's not no disrespect because they know how to get some fucking quality crisps in
yeah and if you get a kebab boss man what you have have? Chili garlic? Chili garlic, my friend.
Fuck yeah.
There you go, mate.
Seven pounds.
That's a weird shop, isn't it?
Boss man, ruffles and chili garlic, please.
I'll have a vape.
I'll have some ruffles.
Punter lemon.
Have you told them their slur yet, or are you keeping that one for yourselves?
No, they use it.
It's their way,
but they let other people use it as well.
They're very progressive with it.
Boss man, that's good. It's like a liberal slur. other people use it as well. They're very progressive with it. Bossmans.
That's good.
It's like a liberal slur.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Like trans.
Yeah.
That brings us to the end.

Describe these disgraces
You realize it's small to me
You know you are in good hands
Find the beach, the promised land.
As you walk around that corner, you should be honored.
Allowed to live as your own man.
And they really are the best.
Stumble into a chest.
And they'll buy you a drink before you can even think
what home used
to be like
and you know this
is the place
where the joy
won't leave your face
where your hope is restored
and the misery is gone
you know you won't
want to leave
Where all the women are just angels
And being sad is fatal
And you know that it's true
We'll be dancing all night through
This is the place you belong
The place you belong The place you belong
Dancing all night long
In the place you belong
Singing all our songs
In the place you belong
Place you belong
Dancing all night long In the place you belong Dancing all night long
The place you belong
Singing all our songs
The place you belong
Read about it in the news
Come to find it isn't true
For the words that they spread
They just want you all dead That just isn't true for the words that they spread. They just want you all day.
That just isn't how they do.
So they'll be hand in hand.
Live a way they can understand.
When you're brought up with nothing, but nothing is enough.
They're all one in their hearts
Flowing pines, sipping good
Living life as they should
They are all in a team
And together they are keen
To make it count while they can
And they'll be just fine
Floating right through time
While the stars start to fade
And the memories make way
For the future in their dreams
And you know this is the place
Where the joy won't leave your face
Where your hope is restored
And the misery is gone
No, you won't want to leave
Where all the women are just angels
And being sad is fatal
And we know that it's true
We'll be dancing all night through This is the place you belong Thank you. The place you belong. Singing all our songs in the place you belong.
The place you belong.
Dancing all night long in the place you belong.
Singing all our songs in the place you belong. Bye.
