This is Have a Word. Oh!
Oh!
It's good to see you.
It's been a while.
How you doing?
It's been a half fucking minute.
Oh, a bit sunburned here
I've got fucking little
fat white red head
for any of our
non-patreon listeners this is
the biggest gap they've had between
episodes in a long time
the last day it was on
Monday you missed us motherfuckers
it's good to be back speaking to
everybody.
Yeah, that's been
a long time, isn't it?
That's seven, eight weeks
of... I can't remember what it was like
doing a weekly podcast. I can't
remember what it was like for you to
be here. It feels
like it was a million years ago.
When people are like, honestly, it's just, you know, time flies, doesn't it, in million years ago when people like honestly it's just you know time
flies isn't it in the shutdown i'm like that has felt like a long two months that's i i haven't
been anywhere i don't know if that slows your perception of time down but fuck me feels like
a long time since we've been doing weekly episodes and you were in the studio yeah time um time's gone
slow have you got some little flowers in your background and you got yourself some flowers babe
what's happening there where you get them from so this studio is basically my office
that i've it's half studio and half office. I've put some pictures up.
The Patreon listeners
have seen it. I've stuck some stuff up.
And what it is also is
a storage room
for when Laura finally
gets beyond the point of worrying
about hurting my feelings about shit that I've
bought for the house.
She's nice to me and we don't, we're not
dicks to each other, but she still hates 98% of the stuff that I just choose for the house so she's nice to me and we don't we're not dicks to each other but she still
hates 98 of the stuff that i just choose for the house so i've basically stopped doing it but it is
my fucking house in it as well so i'm looking around now and like there's so much shit that i
was like oh i thought that'd be nice in the living room it's now nice in here i thought they'd be
nice in the dining you know in the fucking hallway she here. I thought they'd be nice in the dining, you know, in the fucking hallway.
She did not.
Have you and Laura had a little tiff?
No, no.
That's just a bugbear of...
I was just getting a vibe off you
that you might have been in a bit of a strop with...
No, this is just...
This is one of my buttons.
This is one of my weird buttons
where I love Laura to bits, is just this is you it just this is one of my buttons this is one of my weird buttons where i i love laura's bits hope we're married and because i don't want to i'm not doing this
shit again and i love it a bit and but i just it's weird like it's almost like with this podcast
this is the first time i've ever had to share a decision with an equal on something i'm working
on and it's to the benefit of the podcast but it's difficult you're like i want to do something I've ever had to share a decision with an equal on something I'm working on.
And it's to the benefit of the podcast.
But it's difficult.
You're like, I want to do something like this.
And then you're like, I don't think we should.
And then it's taken me like months to get like, fuck, you know,
I just want to do it though.
I just think we should do it.
And I know you're the same.
No, no, no, no.
We should do it like that.
And that's what marriage is, isn't it?
I choose some shit, but I also pay for a lot of it.
So it's a weird thing yeah so the yeah
this room is becoming like a fucking art gallery of a moron basically and this these flowers were
an idea that i had for the hallway at our old house and laura just went awful that was literally
i think the words she used so i was like don't worry about it i'm not taking she was like taking
back i'm not no i'm not taking about these are nice stylish they'll find a home
somewhere and then i saw these fake flowers in the range the other day and i was like oh that
matches the logo and now i've put it there it looks really camp it looks like if have a word
we're doing funerals oh yeah the deceased have a funeral that's when you know
your fucking podcast and i i've said it before and i'll say it again i love being married but
as soon as she leaves me and it all goes to shit i'm getting a fucking super mario duvet cover
and everyone can my balls i'm just gonna i'm gonna put all the shit on the walls that i want and
i'll be angry and i'll be single and i'll be lonely but i will have the decor that i want
see i've got to the point now where me and jade disagree on everything just like you two but i
can't care because i just can't so at the minute we've, we've come to a decision. So this room I'm in right now is the office slash studio.
This is going, within a couple of weeks, to be our bedroom.
Right.
And our bedroom, our current bedroom,
is going to become the office slash studio.
The main reason for this is the sun rises
and comes into our current bedroom.
Yeah.
So from about 8 a.m., our room's like a fucking oven.
Yeah.
Whereas it doesn't get warm in this room until about 6 at night.
Nice.
So we need to swap them around.
And she was like, right, I was thinking maybe in the bedroom
we could do yellow and blue because I just want to change the colours.
And I literally went, you can do...
What?
I've never heard that fuck if you'd have asked me to to pick the color combo that jade had decided
on i would be in the fucking 180 second guess before i went yellow and blue is she the fucking
la rams what's well yeah it's gonna be that sort of color actually, but like a darker blue.
Right.
Okay.
She wants a bright yellow.
So where these purple bricks are.
Yeah.
It's going to be yellow,
but with a bit of a texture.
And we're getting some blue curtains.
And what I've literally said to it is you do whatever the fuck you like.
Here's the money.
I don't want anything to do with it.
Right.
Just crack on. You saw the bedroom. I was, she keeps to do with it. Right. Just crack on.
You sold the bedroom out.
She keeps showing me little diagrams she's done of what everything's going to look like.
And I'm like,
okay,
cool.
And if that changes,
I'll also be cool because I've decided it'll be a lot less stress.
And I don't care what this bedroom looks like as much as she does.
Like initial,
like maybe I would choose a different color.
I don't,
I actually think the blue and the yellow looks really nice from what she showed me
but I'm just like, do you know what?
none of it is worth even one argument
because a week after it's done
I won't even notice the colour of the walls
for a comedian, I'm the least observant
person in the world
I will just come in the bedroom, get in the bed
whenever I want to do that and that's it
the only thing I care about
is that in the new whenever I want to do that and that's it, the only thing I care about is that in the new
office I've
asked us can we split it
so at the minute we share this whole space
I want half of the room
to be mine and half to be his
so I can make a permanent
set up for the studio with a better
camera and more
interesting backdrop
you don't have to change and reset up yeah
exactly so i was like as long as i can have that you can do whatever the fuck you want every room
in this house and that's what she's doing i think that is a very sensible way to move forward in a
in a healthy relationship i just feel like it comes back to that thing where if it's fair enough
that she's like i don't like those i don't like those, I don't like that,
I struggle to find something I like, but then nothing happens.
And then I'm like, yeah, but now there's been bare walls for six months.
Whereas if you said to me, let's go and get some artwork,
you give me two hours on a combination of like,
is it I Am Fi, Etsy, or fucking Amazon, or eBay?
I'll find three things and if after if after
a year you're not into them i'll be like oh i'll change them but laura's like no we'll wait because
that's faithful and then we'll get the right thing and that bugs me but i tell you what you basically
explain there is something that i think every and not to be like oh man you know keep a happy wife happy life i hate all that bullshit but
in all in all faculties of life if you don't give a load of a shit why draw a battle line on
everything because what's letting we studied it at uni and i did a year of politics and then
wandered into a comedy club and that was the end of my academic career but one of the ones i always remembered was utilitarianism which was a really interesting
theory that it's basically what we're talking about just because you want something and i don't
want something doesn't mean they're equal levels of want and and like not want you so so jade wants
it yellow and blue right she loves yellow and blue say and then you go i
fucking hate yellow and blue she loves it you hate it that's an e that's a problem then because
it's an it's an equal level of like and dislike but if she fucking loves it and you think yeah
i'm not that into it that's not worth the fight because her love outweighs you're like yeah i'm
not that bothered so when you're
watching something on tv and like like your missus is like i fucking love this this is my main show
and you're like well i think it's a bit crap and i don't want to watch it she outweighs you it and
it's a good theory but there's times when you have to be like no i fucking hate it doing that we're
doing that exact thing right now so a few years years ago, we watched... Have you ever seen The Good Wife TV show?
I've heard of it.
Right, so we watched that a few years ago
when we first moved in together in the flat
before we moved to the house.
And we both really liked it
because she'd seen about half of season one.
So we just caught up with that
and then everything else was news to both of us.
And we both really, really liked it.
Now, it's been a few years since we've seen it.
I've wanted to watch it again for a while
because I don't mind watching something again.
No.
Because I forget a lot of what's gone on.
Totally.
She remembers almost every episode.
We've started watching it again,
but she's limiting it to like one or two episodes a night,
whereas I'd binge it.
I'd watch six or seven.
But she's like, look,
and she's on her phone for most of it.
She's like, I'll watch it again
and I'll sort of keep my eye on it in the corner. But I remember too much of it to really give a shit. But she doesn like, look, and she's on her phone for most of it. She's like, I'll watch it with you, and I'll sort of keep my eye on it in the corner.
But I remember too much of it to really give a shit.
But she doesn't care.
She's just letting me have it.
It's just every night, a couple of episodes, 40 minutes each,
we just watch The Good Wife, and I'm fucking well invested in it,
and she's just following briefly along.
Everyone's fucking happy.
It's nice.
Good.
It's good.
You don't need to be curtailed or fucking like,
oh, just let her do whatever she wants. It's fucking happy. It's nice. Good. It's good. You don't need to be curtailed or fucking like, oh, just let her do whatever she wants.
It's just easy.
I hate all that bullshit.
But just draw your battle lines.
Because if you make a fight out of fucking everything,
you'll burn each other out.
But if you keep your powder dry,
when it does get to a point,
she's like, I don't really like that.
And you're like, yeah, but I fucking love it.
Yeah.
All my chips. Hey. You've been holding back all your chips and then you're like yeah totally we finished
ozark season three the other night and when we got to the end of it and if you've not watched
ozark i fully recommend it it's got the same vibe as breaking bad you don't know what's coming
story-wise it's very well done it's just grown up well made there's no
point where they've not got the budget i hate that when you're watching something you're like
you haven't got the budget to show the battle that you think is going on behind you like you know
it's you just have to suspend disbelief ozark is literally within its budget so they're showing you
it's fucking great and right at the end of season three it ends with a
bang and you're like whoa and one of the things i regretted the most as the credits rolled as they
played run the jewels oh la la fucking brilliant i was like i'm not just disappointed that that's
over i'm also now gutted because we have to go back to that slightly passive-aggressive selecting of a box set or choosing a film.
And I've had good nights in, completely fucking ruined
by the fact we cannot get on the same page.
And I think you're being good at being chilled out.
Like, if we sit down to watch something,
and as soon as I see Laura's phone,
and then the Instagram finger,
that finger that's like oh
just roll it away roll it away
just start fucking I
sort of get annoyed I'm like you should be fucking
watching it so much better when you're both
into it if we're watching
something new
if me and Kate because we haven't seen Ozark
if we started Ozark tonight and
she started doing that it would do me
adding but because I know she's seen The Good Wife before.
It's different.
I don't mind it.
Just yet, you dip in and out.
I'm going to watch it intently because I don't remember a thing of it.
You remember some of it, so it's fine.
If it's something new and she's on a fucking cuntin' phone,
it fucking drives me with a fucking cuntin' walk.
I'm not into it.
I don't really like it.
You've not watched it properly.
Now, how's Jade in terms of the cinema?
Fuck me, I'm looking forward to a cinema one day,
but it's a while off.
What's the etiquette like?
So have I told you Jade's things with movies
that she doesn't really like watching them?
I remember your bit of stand-up about it.
I remember that from a year or so
yeah the russian neighbor story um which is 95 true yeah um is it on youtube that bit because
people hate having references and then i think that so i did that routine on tv i did it on the
stand-up sketch show so it had to get cut down so i i love the stand-up sketch show, so it had to get cut down.
I love the stand-up sketch show, but
there's a few bits missing out of it that I
feel are important to the story.
It is on YouTube, but I'll put
another version of YouTube on it in the next couple
of weeks or whatever, or something.
Can you give us the abridged version
just so people listening...
Yeah, there's an abridged version on
YouTube that you can go and watch right now.
And it's been made into half stand-up half sketch but the gist was you had russian neighbors and jade didn't give a
shit but you were like i've watched films dickhead you haven't watched films don't fuck with russians
essentially yeah so jade won't watch a film what in the house oh my god I was like what
ever she will go to the
cinema because
that's like an event she likes
going out and doing something so she'll go
to the cinema but in the house
an argument with movies is
they're
they're dead long
but they also don't have enough information
in so because she's used to watching
tv series and the level of detail you get with a 24 hour tv series she's like they try and cram
one tv series worth of story into two hours so you miss loads of detail as well that's not a bad
point i wanted to rip her on that and and I'm like, yeah, totally.
If you're doing it well, if you're doing it Netflix, HBO standard,
that's what you want.
You want to get into the characters.
You want to let the story develop.
You don't want to be having an editor going,
we've got to keep this under an hour and 45, the studio have said.
Yeah, that's their argument.
Ten hours of Ozark a season.
Yeah.
She just wants to skip to the end of a film
so she knows what's happened because she feels
like she won't miss that much detail
because they don't put enough in anyway.
No, no,
that's annoying.
That's annoying.
Jade!
Jade!
People love it when Jade gets involved. Jade. Oh, here she comes. Fucking Jade. Jade. People love it when Jade gets involved.
Jade.
Jade, darling.
Will you come here in a sec?
Baby, stop picking yellows and blues.
I just want you to talk to Dan for one sec.
So I'm trying to...
Are we asleep?
Oh, I'm sorry.
I don't want to talk to her.
I don't know.
I thought you'd go.
She's just woke up. Oh, no, no, no. We don't... Sorry, to her she's just woke up
sorry darling
sorry mate
explain to Dan why you don't like watching films
she's just woken up
oh Jade I didn't
oh mate I didn't know
you were asleep I'm sorry
it's fine
I didn't forget
no he genuinely
he wasn't doing that to be a dick
I could tell he forgot that
so this is what
the gist of what I've got there is that you're like
they try and cram too much information
into like two hours whereas like a
ten episode season or a book
but I also don't
like I don't want to sit for
like four hours watching one thing or a book but I also don't like I don't want to sit for like
four hours
watching one thing
wow
like nothing happens
in a film
nothing happens
well some
films have quite a lot
happening don't they
like
particularly the genre
of action
but I can't see that
you're a big
big action person
like a big
explosion
like that's not
that's not a story
like nothing happens
yeah
like
they've got
which film has done this to you
because it sounds like
you've had a particular
experience that's really
fucked you off
because
you know like
there are some like
non-explosiony films
like Wes Anderson
like Grand Budapest Hotel
it's an absolute
masterpiece
any interest
you watched that didn't we yeah you actually enjoyed that I would never ever in a million years like Grand Budapest Hotel it's an absolute masterpiece any interest?
you watched that didn't you?
yeah you actually enjoyed that
I would never
ever in a million years
watch it again
I never would have chosen to
right
good
like
but what's this thing
about you wanting to know
what the end is
so that
yeah I don't
I just
I want to like
you know if you've got a book
and you read the last page I just want to be able to do that with a film like I want to like, you know, if you've got a book and you read the last page,
I just want to be able to do that with a film.
Like, I want to know what's happened now, and it's too boring to get to the end.
Have you got ADD?
Have you, what?
You never do that, though, do you?
You never read at the end of a book first, do you?
No.
Oh, right.
Absolutely.
I don't.
I respect what you said about how in-depth it can be,
but I'm a bit gobsmacked that you've just gone,
films are fucking boring.
Do you know what I mean?
Like, there's some of the most suspenseful thrillers
and you're like, absolute dog shit.
Fucking Shawshank Redemption, snore off, mate.
I couldn't give a fuck if he gets out.
That is, yeah, pretty accurate.
You'd rather read the book?
Yeah.
Play what film would you like, though?
Hot Fuzz, classic.
Okay, good.
I'm glad that,
of all the films,
of all the films,
Godfather,
the Godfather trilogy,
fucking all of the Oscar winning
films, Hotel Rwanda
I mean it was an absolute seminal classic
no Hot Fuzz was
no it's fine
you can
you do you
I'm just a bit you know
put Adam back on and go back to sleep
I'm so sorry we woke you up
look after yourself
I didn't realise you were still asleep.
I thought you were up and about.
You see what I'm fucking
living with? Somebody not going to get his dick
touched tonight.
Bye, I love you.
So when you go on to cinemas
and do date night, what the fuck's going
on there? I mean, is she just like i'll go
because you want to she's doing the utilitarianism thing of going all right you want to she does
enjoy a cinema trip yeah but not asked about really what you're watching
she yeah so i'll have to convince her that the film is worth her time but she's still like she
will go to cinema a lot more open to that
than me putting a film on in the house.
Especially.
Films we've seen over the past few years.
We went to see Get Out together.
Have you seen Get Out?
Yes, mate.
Superb.
Hated it.
Did you not enjoy it?
I thought the first half was brilliant
and then it just became fucking stupid
in the second act.
Yeah, it was a bit, Yeah, it was a bit...
Yeah, it was a bit mental.
It started like a really creepy, interesting, psycho thriller,
and then became fucking Space Jam in the second act.
It definitely...
I did not watch Gal go,
this is Space Jam, this.
This is definitely Space Jam.
Fucking hell.
It's that one with Michael Jordan and Bugs Bunny.
Yeah.
Or Space Jam 2 with LeBron.
Fucking hell.
If you could have linked any black film to Get Out,
which is basically a black horror film,
you know, basically, it's fucking Space Jam.
horror film.
You know,
basically,
it's fucking Space Jam.
You know,
the thing is about Schindler's List.
I mean,
the first half is good,
but the second half is essentially Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs.
Fucking hell.
Yeah,
fascinating.
That,
that,
I,
you know,
it's probably why you love her.
She's an original. You don't want to fucking dullard but I'd find that
I'd find that shit tiresome after a while
they're like nah I don't like films
all films though
it's a bugbear
it is a
notch in the negatives column of the
weighing up of
the cinema now
he loved three billboards three I tell you, the cinema now... We love three billboards.
Three billboards of a...
Going to the cinema,
you know they do the boutique fucking showy-off,
like the whole thing's about 34 quid,
but if you're spending the dollar
and you're trying to show off and get some poof-poof,
it is fucking amazing.
The Lazy Boys and their beer,
and then you can have an amazing pizza,
and it's fucking...
There's no Scullies because you've priced them out.
All the fucking chatty rats are out
because you're in a twatty fucking try-hard hipster cinema.
I'm into that.
I wouldn't want to do it every week,
but that is the future.
There's one in Liverpool called Fact.
Fact.
Little independent cinema fact yeah nice um
but i i just like going i i find like people are generally quite respectful in the cinema
i don't really get many chatty people i've not really experienced that there's one right by
ours about a three four five minute drive from here is the Showcase Cinema on the East Langstroth. Yeah. So that's where we tend to go
because it's also like the Odeon in town
is about seven or eight pound more.
Right.
Than the local one.
But the local one here does,
it's not a massive cinema.
So although it's a showcase,
like there's Jojo Rabbit, for example,
which I seen earlier this year which
is phenomenal that wasn't available in the showcase cinema yeah okay so fact and places like that i
think town center cinemas have a different sometimes have a different vibe because if
knob no beds can get the bus to watch a film there's i just feel like i've had some absolute
issues mate when we lived in Leeds just had a
full on fucking argument with this Asian guy
I don't know if we've talked about this on the pod
but he really did not appreciate being
told to shut up
I've got zero tolerance though
it really got very it was like an Asian version
of Kane Brown going did you tell me to shut up
have you never fucking seen
me before bro it really
got like I was like mate could you shut up
fucking you're telling me to shut up bro
fucking telling me to shut up
yes mate
because you're fucking talking in the cinema
you should be shocked
if someone was talking in the cinema
it would be ruining my experience so much
that I would just tank the film for everyone else
I would literally stand up
and ruin it
I'd be like lad
shut your fucking mouth or get out now fuck off get out do you know why i can't do that because
the rest of the film i'd just be like a ball of anxiety expecting a another argument or fucking
like punch to the back of the head or i just I just don't know, I get my anxiety like, oh my God, confrontation, it's going.
I wouldn't be able to concentrate,
but there's a bit in me who wants to just not let it ride.
I don't want to be that pathetic fucking white British person going,
oh, it was really ruined by some ruffians at the beck.
Like, stand up for yourself, but at the same time,
it's fucking eggy, isn't it?
Yeah.
You've got to get it out. It's coming, right? And I time, it's fucking eggy, innit? Yeah. You've got to get it out.
It's coming, right? And I'm worried it's old age, but you know
when you speak to an old boy,
or like an old relative at Christmas,
and they're like, I think everyone should be shot in the face
for fucking, if you steal,
you should be murdered.
Whoa, whoa, when did you get so fucking right wing?
Jesus, I feel a little bit of that
coming up. I mean, I feel, if you're chatting in a cinema, I think you get so fucking right wing? Jesus, I feel a little bit of that coming up.
I mean, if you're chatting in a cinema,
I think you should maybe lose a hand.
Just, I feel, I feel, I think if you've got a dump valve and you drive it round an estate,
and there's families and they've got kids sleeping,
I think you should be fucked in the ear with a large dick.
Just as a punishment. I don't know how they do it i don't know if they'd have to go down to like you know the town hall
i'm here for a deer fuck ear fucking yeah it's in the basement it's all soundproof oh
i i can feel is it the left or the right when I get to the bottom of the stairs?
Do you not think, though, that law would work better if there was like, you know, people who just randomly throw litter?
If you got caught, instead of like an £80 fine,
someone got to just punch you in the face as hard as they could.
You had to literally go down to the town hall
and you'd be like, ah, what have you done?
Is it for like a fucking ridiculously loud car?
That's ear fucking, that's right at the end of the corridor.
No, it's a drop litter and it was on CCTV.
All right, you need to get twatted in the face.
I think less people would do it.
I think it'd be better if you just had to lick like an old man's balls.
Oh, yes, mate.
Yeah.
Because then the homophobia kicks in there.
I'm not saying homophobia is right, but I'm just saying,
let's point out and acknowledge that it exists.
We can't solve a problem until we acknowledge that there is one.
A lot of homophobia.
And I would say that homophobia is more prevalent in people who litter than those
who don't that's just a guess for me you think litterers are so ignorant they're ignorant of
the environment they're also ignorant of like gay rights and i honestly it makes absolutely no sense
and then all the sense in the world i think it's and i and i want to know when you're standing for election I will vote for you sir
so I reckon
if you throw just one item
away you have to just go
and lick one testicle
if it's like
a bigger item or like more than one
you have to lick both and then at the
top level you have to go
you have to go fly tipping
you have to go from the base of the penis
and lick all the way up to the tip.
How old? How old's the dude?
He's a mayor.
Oh, you have to lick the mayor's balls.
Can you imagine the level of fucking pervert
that would be standing for local election?
And the mayoral candidates are,
Gareth, I think I'd ever go to mayor.
And you know who'd win?
Do you know who'd win?
The electorate would come out,
for whoever looked like he had the cleanest arsehole,
because you'd be like, listen, guys,
you never know, you might just forget
and fucking drop a Coke can,
and the next minute, you're in the town hall
with the mayor going, ah you've been
naughty, you
should have found recycling
okay, get your tongue
out, this is the judicial
system, oh yeah
oh I like it
yeah, I think we've just solved crime
I think we've just solved all crime
it's not, what's capital punishment when you get
killed, corporal punishment is when you just get slapped about a bit.
This feels like poetically justified corporal,
like it's a form of corporal punishment,
but just more twisted.
Yeah.
Just a big sweaty old mayor dick.
Yeah.
Like if you feel a girl's arse,
if you feel a girl's arse if you feel
a girl's arse
in a nightclub
and it's proved
because you're just
some fucking dickhead
who's like
yeah yeah
it's got a fucking
great arse
yeah
and you basically
grope some fucking
22 year old
in a nightclub
you should have to
have your dick
and balls grabbed
by a really
aggressively fat
sweaty guy
like you like grabbing I like grabbing yeah and I'm sure there's people listening to this going have your dick and balls grabbed by a really aggressively fat sweaty guy like
you like grabbing people listening to this going oh well this wouldn't necessarily be a punishment
for gay people who like licking dicks and i get what you're saying but this would be a dick that
no one wants to go near once you're elected mayor you're never allowed to wash your genitals again
so you just end up with sweaty knob cheese ridden genitals um can i just say that i don't think there's a lot of gay people heard that
and we're like well this isn't a punishment for me because i'm actually a homophobe
that's basically like going so it's like's like, the mayor's a woman,
and she's,
you've got to like,
just because I'm straight,
I'm not like,
brilliant,
I'll lick the gooch of a 75 year old sweaty old mayor.
Like,
just because I'm straight,
I'm not like,
that's not gross,
you know,
because she's a woman and I'm a man.
It wouldn't be as bad for gay people though,
would it?
I'm telling you,
Adam,
right now,
if it's an old mayor,
like,
say it's like, say, to be fair, say there's been so much litter dropping in the town that they're like mate
the mayor's got a sore arsehole literally he's been licked he's been licked to the point where
he's red raw we're having to put fucking we're having to put baby cream on him because he's
there's so much litter picking going on these We've had to bring back the old mayors
to like step in part time,
you know,
on the weekend
to just do cover.
So the old mayor,
the old mayor,
the mayor that was like
mayor from 1983 to 1987
is now clocking 90 years old.
If I dropped
my fucking Mackey's wrapper
out the,
Mackey's like whatever whatever the bag of Maccies
out of the car window and they
told me I had to lick the gooch
of a 90 year old
for me it doesn't make
it better that it's a woman
that I honestly think you hit
an age where sex goes out
of the window I'm not joking
if a 90 year old
private part as a punishment you could
literally go i could be could be like do you want a man or a woman i'll be like i want the one that's
least close to death i'm not joking i actually think i might take the gooch of the man because
of the mysteries of the of the feminine form i don't know what that's going to look like at 90 years old.
Like, here you are, Mrs. Mayor.
Madam Mayor.
Oh, it's a bit more litter.
Oh, it's the best part of this job these days.
I think I might take the guys.
At what age does sexuality go out the window?
It's almost like sexless.
I think once you hit 80,
once you hit 80, once you hit 80,
you're neither man or a woman.
You're just dead old.
You're almost like so old,
you're like a G.I. Joe,
like a pensioner G.I. Joe.
It's just, there's nothing there.
Can you stop dehumanising pensioners on our podcast, please?
We're talking about licking their...
We're talking about rimming pensioners.
Don't be so offensive.
We have nationalised the genitals of everyone over the age of 80.
They now belong to the electorate.
I also don't think there's a lot of pensioners who would be ecstatic.
In light of COVID-19, you're like,
listen, I know there's a high infection rate and you be ecstatic in light of COVID-19 you're like listen I know
there's a high infection rate and you're definitely
in a high risk category
but this cunt's been fly tipping

Jilly B asks shout out to

this is the native indigenous jilly b where have you never gigged before that you would never do even if offered 10 grand for the gig just for one night what
what kind of gig where would you just refuse to play all because you i as soon as i read this i
was like the problem with this question is you have like we are gig starved horrifically gig
starved and what she's going is imagine a gig that you just absolutely would not want
to do a comedy gig that you just under no circumstance would do.
And then she's offered 10 grand.
May we haven't gig for two months.
I do any fucking gig like,
yeah.
So I'm gone.
Let me,
let me try and let me,
let me David Dickinson yet.
Ah,

Ten grand on the table.
Yeah.
So it's my job here to try and put you off.
So I wanted to tell you...
Pretend you...
You've got to do a gig for the Saudi Arabian royal family.
It's just them.
It's in their palace.
Yeah.
You're getting paid ten grand.
Yeah.
But...
Yeah.
If they don't like a joke, it's off with your head.
Oh, no, no, no.
No. No. I mean, the Saudi
Arabian government wouldn't kill people, would they?
They're a royal family.
Hey!
Well, we just lost all our Saudi listeners.
Oh, that's right. They're not allowed to listen.
Yeah, we do have listeners in Saudi Arabia.
I wanted to...
Fuck off.
I wanted to run this by ear.
Wait there a sec,
because I checked earlier
where our listeners are from,
and we've got a fucking diverse podcast here, pal.
Let me just get to this for you.
Take us around the world.
Have a world uh saudi arabia i don't i'm not a big fan of the old
middle east really so here's a full list in order from largest to smallest not in landmass as in
our listenership so obviously the UK is at the top.
Yeah.
This is a full list of countries.
It's fucking bananas how many countries this shit gets downloaded in.
You ready?
United Kingdom, Australia, Ireland, United States. That makes sense.
The first five make a lot of sense.
India is number six.
Doesn't make sense.
India is in the Europa League spots here.
Do you know, that is starting to make sense.
I have been not accepting a lot of Facebook requests from India
because I thought I was just being scammed.
And now I realise it's just people going,
I love the podcast.
I find these guys, like, that's my racism, that.
Romania, Denmark.
What?
How is Romania sick?
They're having a fucking rice season, aren't they?
Go on.
Romania, Denmark, Norway, Japan,
the United Arab Emirates,
the Isle of Man,
Bermuda...
It sounds like the worst World Cup group in history to me.
Well, you got a chance to qualify out of this one.
Jersey, France, New Zealand, Sweden, Austria, Belgium, Germany, Israel, Spain,
South Korea, Singapore, South Africa, Lebanon, the Czech Republic, Hong Kong,
the Netherlands, Qatar, Switzerland, Taiwan, Malta, Portugal, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, Peru, Bulgaria, Oman, the Cayman Islands, Malaysia, Iceland, Thailand, Argentina, Guernsey, Turkey, Azerbaijan, Brazil, Colombia, Estonia, Hungary, Slovakia, Tunisia, and the rest are unknown.
Oh, my fucking Lord.
What?
Who is listening to this in Brazil?
Like, they've got access to beautiful women, the fucking, the music, the football, the cocaine,
and then they're listening to us talk about rimming old people
in, like, the town hall as a punishment.
Someone in Rio de Janeiro going,
I really want to not listen, but I have to listen.
That's my Brazilian.
Keep going.
Why does he sound French
no he's
my Brazilian
he's
trying to do
sort of
Portuguese
what you're doing
is
from France
but currently
lives in
pieces
it's very
difficult
to
oh no
it's a bit
French isn't it
Brazilians
I'm trying to
think of the
USC fighters
Eric Cantona
is this a good mental I don't understand it it's a bit French isn't it I'm trying to think of the USC fighters mental
I don't understand it
I'm sort of freaked out by it
but what I'm definitely going to stop doing
is stop just rejecting everyone internationally
because I think they're trying to scam me
what do these cunts want
just to be a fan
that's what's happening there
some poor dude in India is like
fucking hell I love these lads
why are you wobbling your head
you wobbled your head there didn't you
you wobbled your head
do you know why
because I did a Scouse accent
because I did a Scouse accent
I was like
don't do the accent
alright lads I'm in India
in my head I went don't do my head, I went, don't do
the voice because everyone's
going, don't do it, Dan. Come on, you're better than
that. Alright lads, I'm from
Mumbai, lad.
What? What's wrong with the Indian
accent? I've done it on past episodes. Remember
the takeaway, man? No, I don't
have the very vegan food in
the place. The vegan
food not available at the minute.
Far too complicated to cook this now.
Right.
Gig.
Honestly, I've joked about it before.
EDL meeting.
Like, the fucking...
Just the biggest bunch of racist, anti-Muslim,
just nasty pieces of horrible work,
and you're looking at them going,
oh, God, I don't...
Annoyingly, you do look like me,
but we're not the same.
And they're like,
we fucking love it, right,
when you do those fucking...
Because you don't give a fuck
that you're like me,
you will do the Indian voices,
because fuck it, you know what I mean?
We're 500 quid.
500 quid to next week
go to a socially distanced
but they've still got 200 people there
and it's in Wigan
so it's only a half hour drive
would you do it? Cash
nothing listed on the internet
EDL, English Defence League
oh if you're listening abroad
the English Defence League
they're basically just
far right
sort of aggressive dudes.
But it's next week.
It's next week.
Look at him!
Well, no, I won't cancel gigs for it,
but there's nothing in.
Yeah?
No.
Look, I'd love...
To say no.
To just say no and be like, I obviously wouldn't do that
because my beliefs and political leanings are so far removed
from that of that group.
However, right now, I would do that gig.
right now,
I would do that gig.
500 quid and I get to do a gig
half an hour from my house.
Cash.
How depressing would it be
if it went better than any gig you'd ever done?
You were like, wow. I really connect with these guys.
I reckon I could smash that gig.
Yeah.
What would you do in Saudi Arabia, though?
When you said Saudi Arabia to the royal family,
I just don't see how you...
What point of reference have you got?
You know what I mean?
If you try and even do old stuff like you know you know because
i'm afraid with when it comes to victoria's secret models like what is uh what is victoria's secret
what is her secret that she has western whore yeah but you're forgetting i've recently invested
in oil i know exactly i have only i've done loads of gigs in the middle east and one mainly for like
the navy stop it the one time we got taken over by the stand they took us out to play to expats
and like in bahrain they've got like rugby clubs where they don't drink anywhere else they drink
at the rug because we had two gigs at rugby clubs,
and then one at a hotel,
but it was for the owner of the company,
and basically his mates,
they'd all been educated in either America,
so they were very westernised,
but they were Bahraini,
so they wanted to get it.
It was a very like,
oh, this is a western thing,
they do stand-up,
and there was a Bahraini compere.
I don't know, they flew in him from Dubai.
He was pretty fucking shit.
But knew what he was doing, but just wasn't funny.
And my set went really well, apart from when I did a joke.
Do you remember my old joke about being 30?
And it's weird because you can date girls 10 years younger than you,
and that's sort of all right,
but you can also date women 10 years older than you.
You're in this weird spot where you could feasibly date a 20-year-old
or a fucking 40-year-old, and it's just a contrast joke.
Like one's young, one's old, and that's where the banter lies.
And I was like, it's a weird age.
And there was women, probably my age, a little bit older,
Bahraini women, who probably were quite middle-class,
sort of Arabic Bahraini women.
And I went, man, I think I was 29, so I was doing 19 to 30. Bahraini women who probably were quite middle-class sort of Arabic Bahraini women.
And I went, man, I think I was 29.
So I was doing 19 to 30.
I went, I could date, I could date a 39-year-old woman, right?
No reaction.
I could date a 19-year-old girl for about 10, 15 of the women started going.
Like that.
They just, there was no, it was like it was tutting was no it was like it was tutting but it was like it was like and apparently in bahrain if you do it's not like it's not like a horrific scolding but it's like
it's like a sign of disapproval from women but it's not just one tut
it's it literally sounds like a woodpecker's just started getting at the fucking...
But 20 of them started doing it at the same time.
And you know in comedy, when you're so used to, like,
someone goes,
This gem has burst it!
And you're almost tuned into that, like,
No, just go,
What are you saying? I can't get served!
And you can still do your set.
I'll tell you what will stop you dead in your fucking tracks.
20 Bahraini women going,
it sounded awful.
I feel like you're doing it.
You know in porn,
you know in porn,
when some overconfident guy's like,
I'm going to make this girl squirt.
It was fucking weird. I just stopped.
I was like, I don't know what has happened but we've all turned into fucking it's like you're trying to get a fucking like a cat over that so weird
you didn't know what that was so you were on stage and just had to carry on and then afterwards you
found out what it was no i had to stop the gig because i was so freaked out
you know it was so weird and also you're in bahrain doing comedy so it's already an away game
but i was like i can't for my own sanity be like oh yeah i just made four 30 women start
tutting repeatedly oh it's fun and they were and it was like is that because of the 19 year old
fucking weird
imagine that but with the Saudi Arabian
royal family and death at the end of it
I don't
that would be an unplayable gig
that's not even worth the 10 grand
you'd hear tut tut tut tut tut tut tut
sword
when I did Dubai I got told whatever you do
don't joke about the royal family here.
They're on the wall, aren't they?
They're on the wall.
You walk and you're like, oh, there they are.
There's the king and the prince and okay.
Fucking horrible.
Yeah.
I got told, do not joke about them, whatever you do.
And the temptation in me
to be like, yeah,
the last night.
Who's this fucking prick in his tea towel on the
fucking wall i can't imagine the amount of tutty like you wouldn't touch it you just hear a machine
oh fuck you know uh base jedi i want you to discuss how we are going to keep Jade in earshot when things
return to normal.
Makes me howl when she overhears Adam text this.
Well,
mate,
that's already happened on this episode.
Matt says,
uh,
what do you want to talk about?
Anything but politics.
All right,
Matt.
All right.
We get it.
We get it. We get it.
You fucking Tory.
I think it's really offensive.
Fucking hell.
I can't believe you're in a pandemic shutdown.
Your life is so influenced by politics.
You're like, oh, fucking anything but politics, guys.
All right, mate.
All right, listen.
I've licked a nana's arsehole in this episode.
Forgive me if we mention fucking politics.
Dave Checkley.
Is there a gig, show, or performance of any type
that you gutted that you weren't there for?
For me, it's the fact that I missed the bottom live shows.
Is there any performance
that you if you could go back you'd be like
love to watch it
probably Bernie Mac innit
that
show
I'm big boned
or Bill Bear in Philly
oh yeah
that
two well the Bernie Mac people might know unless you've missed the episode
where i explained it but he's in the intro for the podcast i'm heather structured i'm big mont
there was a def jam night in new york that was really fucking eggy and they were handing people
their arses and he went on and absolutely ripped it's one of the best five minute sets anyone's ever seen but the the
bill burr story's legendary isn't it do you want to tell it yeah you know yeah well i'll tell it
briefly um so there's a radio show in america called the op and anthony show which used to
have a lot of comedians on and they did a live tour of like standup. So Opie and Anthony, the two radio hosts,
would go on and then introduce the comics.
And apparently it was this night
where almost every comedian's absolutely dying on their arse,
getting booed off.
Philadelphia audiences are famous
for sort of booing comedians
and being a cunty audience.
Philadelphia is famous for booing Santa in the NFL
and they hate it being brought up
but they threw snowballs at Santa
at a Christmas fucking NFL game
they're like you guys are so
fucking mean you booed
Father Christmas
like loads of the comedians on the bill were doing
like half of the time they were expected
to do instead of doing 20 minutes they were doing 10 instead of doing half an hour 15 whatever and bill bear was
booked i believe to do 12 minutes and he goes on stage and he's getting booed within like three
minutes and he's like you know what no fuck the lot he is i'm not going fucking anywhere i've been
booked for 12 minutes i'm fucking doing 12 minutes and he can see a clock he can see a clock like to his in his
in his eyes in his eyeline is a clock it's the funniest thing as he counts it he's like he's
ripping the city of philadelphia oh you've got every time you score a touchdown you play the
rocky theme tune your whole city rallies around a guy that doesn't fucking exist six minutes left
and he's just going on and on and on.
And they start getting into it while hating it.
They start getting into it.
It's a standing ovation at the end.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like, he goes from literally getting booed off
after three minutes to standing ovation at the end.
And it was the first big break of Bill Bear.
Like, he'd have got where he is anyway
because of who he is and how good he is.
But that really gave him...
That was his Jim Jefferies getting punched on
stage in Manchester moment so I think
to be there for that do you
know an Australian comedian
called Nick Cody
no
so Nick Cody a mate of mine he's a good
mate of Daniel Sloss so I've met him through
Sloss at like the Edinburgh Festival and stuff he's
come over a few times Nick he hasn't
done the last couple of Edinburgh Festivals because he had a kid.
But he's dead, dead good. He's got
a radio spot now in Australia.
So that's a big career
thing in Australia if you get to host a radio show.
Dead good stand-up comic. He's got
some stuff online. Go and check it out.
Listen to this. He was at
that night,
right? He was at the night that
Bill Bear got booed in Philly and did that. He was at the night that Bill Bear got booed in Philly
and did that
he was at the recording
of Patrice O'Neill's
Elephant in the Room
and he was at the recording
of Hilarious
by Louis CK
he was at three
of the most
iconic stand-up
things
ever
because he
lived in America
for a couple of years
and he just
travelled around
America going to watch big stand-up events and then he opened Nick Cody opened for Bill Bear because he lived in America for a couple of years and he just travelled around America
going to watch big stand-up events.
And then he opened,
Nick Cody opened for Bill Bear for a week in Sydney.
And on the last night of opening for him,
he brought his ticket
from the Opie and Anthony show in Philadelphia
and asked Bill Bear to sign it.
And Bear's head was just blown off.
Just like, what the fuck?
That's amazing. How have you gone from being in that audience to
open for me in Sydney? Oh that's fucking
great, there is loads, it's
I tell you what I really love
American podcasts but they're YouTube
highlights
and I think Bill Bear is a phenomenal
podcast guest, like I know
Adam really likes his solo podcast
but he is the biggest of hitters when
jim norton gets him on his new podcast and when he's on rogan it's always some of the best
podcasting yeah when he's on saguras it's so bill burris such and having him he won't do it again
now i think he's explained it but there are full explanations of what happened and
he can talk you through it so you can not only go and find the philadelphia incident and watch it
which is so fucking funny but then you can go and listen to bill burr fully explain everything that
happened because it's become it's become like legendary in u.s comedy and i think a lot of
podcast fans from over here will have heard the story.
Like it's fucking great.
And there's something amazing with comedy.
It's important to never totally lose your,
not affection.
If you do not care what an audience think,
you've already started the clock on you not being a great standup.
Because if you don't give a shit, if you don't give any shits,
you can't get better because you'd be like,
ah, no, this is great.
And you're like, no, you need to be responding
to what the audience responds to.
It's a weird balancing act, isn't it?
You've got to have your conviction of what's right.
You've got to know when an audience is wrong.
But generally, you've got to care.
At the same time, and you've seen it, you and you you and you when i was it's weird when you care too
much you're like god you need to chill the like you've watched comics and you're like you just
need to calm down you've got to be more relaxed there is something amazing about the confidence
of a comic who is so far into comedy that they know they're boned on stage and just go i you
can't hurt my feelings but i can entertain me and the other comedians in the room by fucking
antagonizing you and taking the piss it's only irresponsible if you're fucking up the night for
the guys that are on after you but if it if the like i've been at a show where it's been unplayable
and people have got to the you've got to the gig and you've been at a show where it's been unplayable and people have
got to the you've got to the gig and you've been doing another like oh my god it's awful
and the promoter's like just do 15 if you can and you're almost like it's basically them going free
hit free hit you go on and you can start taking the piss and if it's going badly like yeah this
is how it's meant to go and if there's any weirdness you can start being weird with it it's almost
like you can't be irresponsible on
one of those nights and it's fucking great
to watch it's great to do
I love those nights watch a great
comic take the ropes on something like that
um
one fucking more
lad
Brett Blunden
what have you been cooking seems that everyone has started to become a chef
these days we know adam loves a roast what about you dan have you both been barbecuing says brett
blunden i love it when someone goes i'm not going to try and be funny i'm not going to try and be
rude or anything i just genuinely would like to know.
It's almost like he's just what's up his fucking mam.
You all right?
What, you been cooking anything? I am.
Because you do really go to town on it, don't you?
You're fucking.
It's all big.
If you follow me on Instagram, every time I've cooked,
I've pretty much put it on there.
I've made a few roasts
I made a great sandwich last week
that loads of people really liked
what are you laughing at?
I don't know
I just thought you were going to build to roast
and you were like
I really did some good toast in the morning
I just fucking got the marmalade
this wasn't just like
a fucking slice of ham on a bit of bread.
I know, I know, I know.
So what I got, I got
a seeded baguette
from the
Asda. It's actually
pronounced baguette.
So. I got a
seeded baguette.
Seeded baguette.
From Asda. I got a seded baguette. A seded baguette. From Asda.
I got a whole roast chicken.
Put the chicken in the oven.
Let it roast for a bit.
And then...
I don't know why I'm finding it funny.
I'm trying to take it serious.
I feel like you're going into too much detail.
I took it out of the wrapper.
I was breathing. In and it out of the wrapper. I was breathing in and out.
Oh, sorry, sorry.
I turned the oven on.
I held it in my hands.
I held it in my hands.
I used my hands to hold it and move it.
It's gone.
Sorry.
You've made your bed. You can fucking lie in it now
So I got in my car
I put the key
Picked up the chicken
Put it in the trolley
Oh fuck off don't do it
You're doing the fucking
Sandwich story equivalent of
Bill Burr in Philadelphia oh fuck you
I'm gonna tell a 12 minute sandwich
story 8 minutes
okay
I roasted a chicken
in the oven how hot are
chickens
I roasted the chicken
and I did some stuffing
some sage and onion stuffing as well
nice
then I grilled some bacon
and
I made some
Bisto Best chicken gravy
just with the granules
so
is this a sandwich
or the roast?
What's happening?
Fucking advanced
sandwich this.
So I took my chicken
out the oven,
sliced it,
really like
not too thin,
not too thick.
Put the chicken
on the baguette.
Baguette.
Topped it with a bit
of stuffing.
Then got the crispy
bacon off the grill
on top of the stuffing.
Yeah.
Then got chicken skin off the chicken.
Oh, you dirty bitch.
And then got the gravy and put that all over the sandwich
and had a gravy chicken skin, chicken fillet, bacon,
sage onion stuffing sandwich.
And it was orgasmic.
Mate. It's two meals meals you've comboed two
meals i'm i'm half i'm half surprised you've not gone and then i got some corn flakes and i put a
layer of corn flakes on whoa whoa whoa tell me one thing that's on that sandwich that doesn't belong
on it no it just it's it's so advanced but it sounds like a roast. It sounds like you've gone,
I want all the fun of a roast,
but also sandwich as well.
Like a baguette.
There was no roast potatoes, no yorkshire puddings,
no pigs in blankets. There's not a baguette.
No baguette is big enough.
No cauliflower, no cabbage.
So here's my problem with that
much prep. I put it to you, you're talking shit. No, I am. So here's my problem with that much prep.
I put it to you, you're talking shit.
No, I am.
And I have been doing it for fucking five months.
But how... Yeah.
How long did that take?
This is my problem.
Sounds amazing.
I'm sure you enjoyed it.
It's too long for a sandwich, that.
It's just too long for a sarnie.
What if you know you're going to be hungry
in two hours
you just start making it now?
Oh that's fucking
shut down rules aren't it?
When I say
it took two hours
you're not actively
doing stuff for two hours.
It's just you have to
sit in front of the
fucking oven.
The chicken takes
about an hour and a half
to cook.
Yeah.
And then you've got to
let it rest for about
20 minutes before you slice it.
That's the two hours. You're not actually doing stuff for to let it rest for about 20 minutes before you slice it. That's the two hours.
You're not actually doing stuff for two hours.
You just start it two hours before you eat it.
If you do celebrity fucking master chef,
what's your,
is that going to be one of your go-tos?
I'm hoping you get to a level where you get there.
I think.
Yeah.
That sandwich would be a really good thing to do,
but I'm also really good at buffalo wings.
Oh, now you're talking talking I make my own buffalo sauce
you floated the idea of watching the
Superbowl at your place and you talked about
buffalo wings and I think next year
I'm going to take you up on it
yeah I'll have a little Superbowl party in my house
we might have a studio by then we could have a Superbowl party
in the studio and stream studio shut the fuck up
keep talking
yes mate
I want a place where I can shout
after 8pm
do you know why I've not done one live stream gig
this isn't just the reason I don't really want to do them
but when people go
oh I've got to zoom for a fucking thingy's birthday
I'm not doing it because i can't
speak loudly after 8 p.m because it's bedtime this studio is great i can talk loudly apart from
if my daughter's in bed the super bowl is so fucking eggy when you're trying to watch it and
you've got i watched it my mate ben came down from newcastle he drove all the way down he got
rat ass we had a few beers laura was heavily pregnant upstairs and i he was like of course
we'll be quiet of course we'll be quiet it's 2 30 in the morning the patriots are coming back
against the falcons he's pissed on fucking dark fruit strongbow and he's getting louder and louder
and louder and i if you say that's one of the best comebacks in nfl history i'd be like yep and my
memory of it is the anxiety of watching a pissed guy from Newcastle
nearly wake my angry fucking beast of a pregnant wife up.
I would love...
You know when people are like,
oh, you're getting a studio, really?
You're actually going to spend money on renting a studio?
Mainly because now there's going to be a place in it...
Do you want to watch the Super Bowl?
Where?
In a fucking studio surrounded by fucking microphones
and orange and white flowers
i think that'd be bosto we can invite select comics that are into the nfl they can do it with us
they can bring sleeping bags and just sleep on the floor of the studio we don't have to put them up
in our fucking houses yes yes mate wow i don't know how we got
from there to sandwiches to there but i'm so happy and to pay for this i have a word podcast we go

Had a lot of people
Giving great feedback on that Saying they've been singing it all over
the shop driving down the m6 randomly popped into their head then also people telling us
they're pissed off because it's stuck in their head and they can't stop singing it
it's fucking amazing can i just say um a thank you to and we'll obviously mainly do this on next Wednesday
this week a few days ago we released
our first ever Patreon exclusive
podcast so it was a
big move for us to start putting one weekly
behind a paywall
so to speak where you can join a membership
you can sign up for either £3, £5 or £10
a month and you get an extra podcast
episode a week every Wednesday
I really enjoyed doing it.
The feedback that we've had looks like
it might have been our best one.
So,
if you're not already signed up to the Patreon
and you've been umming and ahhing about doing it,
just go to Twitter, have a little look through
the things we've retweeted because people really loved Wednesdays.
We're being a little bit cheekier
and a little bit more
open about certain things. we're saying some things
behind the paywall that we can't really say publicly
and I'm just really grateful
Thanks for being vocal about your
support because it's very easy to be like
oh I love that podcast and then
never say anything about it
but if you just go
even if you're like oh
on Facebook or on Instagram
I've only got a few hundred followers.
Every time you post something about the podcast,
I'm not even talking about the Patreon episode,
even if you've just listened to today and gone, fuck me,
that's just so daft, it's made me laugh.
If you tweet out, if you put something on Facebook,
if you get one person who knows you going, do you know what?
So-and-so's got really good taste, I like what they're into,
and it gets us another list. It's so appreciated.
So thanks for being vocal with your support.
We really do appreciate that.
Nothing has helped this podcast more than word of mouth.
Like, word of mouth is why this is built to where it is so far
and why it's going to continue to build in the future.
Keep telling people about it.
Keep letting people know that you're listening to it
and you find it funny.
And we'll keep making the shit for you.
We're very, very grateful.
And we love y'all.
We love y'all.
We do love y'all.
Got to have a word for you.
This one only came in today, but I really liked it.
So I'm doing it straight away because it's my podcast
and I'll do whatever they want.
So shut up.
You're not me real dad.
Literally, none of that information.
You could have just been like,
we've had to have
a word everyone but yep yep adam's like well it's new but never mind fuck you
um the person who's written this in wishes to be kept anonymous um right there's
she's it's a girl who's written and, I'll say that much she started with
alright, which makes me think she might be
from Manchester, but I don't know
y'alright
is that how you read it? y'alright
so I'm going to read it
in a mang accent, so I'm sorry to the person who's
written this in, if you're not from there
message me and tell me
that I'm wrong, if you want
alright, I'm frustrated and my first thought was to contact me that I'm wrong if you want. All right, I'm frustrated.
And my first thought was to contact you.
I'm being a spoiled, ignorant, selfish little bitch.
And I'm having a strop because I can't get my own way.
I'm seeing my best friend today for a social distancing picnic.
Obviously, we're going to get wankered.
And the plan was for her to stay at mine as she
lives quite far away. Please don't hate me. I know this is completely breaking the rules and
completely out of order, but she does live alone and hasn't had contact with anyone in weeks.
But I'm pissed off with my housemate. He's refusing to let her stay at our house. And the reason is that he doesn't want to be risking passing Corona on to his parents. And he's saying it in a righteous way.
parents for the night, even during lockdown? Is he equally as bad as me? Why does he get to go and see his parents, but I don't get to see my best friend? If he was that bothered about them catching
it, he wouldn't go and see them, or he'd just stay with them all the time until it's over.
Who made him the king of the manor? He said in his reasoning,
king of the manor.
He said in his reasoning,
God forbid anything happens to my parents.
Look, I've got a
dead parent and it's not even
that bad.
She's definitely Northern.
She's definitely Northern. I'm 26, of course
I've got a dead parent.
I'm not sorry. Who's got two
parents at 27?
I know I'm a selfish wanker,
but do you think he is too?
Also, thank you for the pod.
I'm very grateful for Medela Entertainment.
Keep it up.
Wow.
She travelled around there, didn't she,
in terms of heritage?
She started in Manchester
and ended up in 1940s West Yorkshire.
I travel up and down that hill, I do.
Working for Hovis.
Na, na, na, na.
Right.
Oh, it's a juicy one, isn't it?
Housemate doesn't want to.
What do you reckon?
Well, I want to speak freely on this, Adam.
First of all, thank you for having me on the podcast.
And I just want to say, before I give my answer,
it's a very complicated issue.
If you're going to talk like a politician,
I'm going to interview you like Piers Morgan.
So, go on.
Obviously, before I answer this...
I understand that, Mr. Nightingale,
but you're avoiding the question.
Please, please, I feel like I'm being...
No, no, no, no, no.
No, I'm not interrupting you.
I'm trying to facilitate this interview.
I'm trying to answer.
I'm trying to speak to the British public.
I'm trying to answer the question.
So the question is, who is the arsehole?
If you'd let me answer the question, okay?
First of all, before I answer the question,
I want to say that I respect the question.
The question is...
There's 60,000 people dead, Mr Nightingale.
Can you tell me?
That's not actually the official figures.
It's actually 59,287, so...
Yes, but that doesn't include the people in care homes,
which you're deliberately leaving out
because you've made a massive balls...
Can I answer the question? I'd like to answer the question i'm trying to i'm trying to answer the question
answer the question i'm trying to i'm trying to answer the question answer the question mr
this government believes quite strongly that it is a right of the british people and its elected officials not to answer questions i i let he is not in the right first of all i just
before i say this you're not meant to be going to state your parents just because you think you
should so it's difficult for him to be like well you can't come here and do that but you can't
because i'm going to see my parents so you're basically going well I'm already
doing something wrong so you can't also do something
wrong because it makes my wrong more dangerous
that's well annoying isn't it
he's not meant to be going to stay at his parents
I need to level but yeah
I haven't listened to a word you've just said
because I can't stop thinking about that sandwich I made
when you were doing your
fake Piers Morgan
it's lucky you didn't start going sandwich When you were doing your fake Piers Morgan,
it's lucky you didn't start going,
sandwich, answer the sandwich.
Answer the sandwich.
I've asked you a sandwich, now make a sandwich.
Sandwich, eat a sandwich.
I want to eat a sandwich, who am I?
I'm Piers Morgan, I'm Piers Sandwich.
Fuck.
He shouldn't be going to stay at his mam's.
She shouldn't really be having a mate stay over.
So they're both in the wrong.
But also, I know people are in basically health-related self-isolation and have been a week longer than everyone else.
And I know you're scared about your health.
However, a lot of people now are starting to cut corners on the lockdown i think partly because
of sunday's announcement and everything we talked about on monday i would say this though
i think he's wrong for going to stay with his mums but it it is his house that he lives that
his mum he's staying at his mum and dad's isn't he he's staying he's going to stay his parents
but you didn't say stay at his mum's. You said stay with his mum's.
Stay with his mum's?
Do you know what I mean? He's got two
mums. I think...
Fucking Johnny Two Mums over here.
Fucking multiple mums.
Oh my god.
I don't...
I think he's allowed to stop it.
I do... I'm not saying he's in the right,
but if I had a shared
house and someone was like yeah my mates come in and we're doing a picnic which is allowed
but they need to stay here i'd be like nah fuck off i think i think he is allowed he is allowed
to be like you can't you can fair enough break the rule if you lived on your own, I'm no judgement there but you can't bring someone
into a house, that's not on
is it? Am I just, am I making
Have you already broke the rule?
I think
right, they're both as bad as each other
but that's very important, they're both
as bad
as each other and because he's
already been doing that and going and staying
in a different house and bringing any infection from their And because he's already been doing that and going and staying in a different house
and bringing any infection from there back,
he's in no position to tell this girl
that she can't do it.
No.
I think she's got every right to say,
you've gone and stayed in your mars plenty.
Me mate's staying.
I don't, you've risked my health,
so you can't now tell me
that I'm out of order for risking yours.
Go and stay in your mars if you want
before me mate's get here. You can stay there as long as you want. I'm not asked my mate
stay and go fuck yourself. Oh, there's the, there's the compromise. There's the compromise.
He, I tell you what, if she, I know she wants to be anonymous, but if she wants to literally
draw a fair battle line on this one, you can be like, okay, this is your house too. And
you don't want someone coming here and infecting
you and right so that's fair enough right so why don't you go and stay tonight at your parents
which you already fucking have been doing so therefore i get to have my friend over who's
living alone and i'm worried about her mental health we get to have some fucking human time
so okay i'm breaking the rules but you have been as well but then you're at your
parents so you don't get infected that's a nice that's a very nice little halfway in it i think
it's perfect i think this is the first time in about three and a half months that we've actually
resolved one of these and i tell you what if he turns around and goes, no, I don't have to, this is my house, he's a fucking cock and ball and you need to,
that's the line.
Now, if he'd not been going to his parents
and you were like, I need my friend to stay over,
I've lived in shared houses before
and it doesn't take much to cause some fucking nasty scenes.
It can get eggy as fuck in a shared house.
I'd be fuming if I'd been isolated and one of my
house was like oh we're bored and we want to get
drunk and apart. A shared house is
essentially a relationship that you don't
get the sexual benefits of isn't it
that's the problem that's why it gets eggy in a shared house
imagine like
if you had no connection to your
missus but you still had to live with her
everything annoying she does
and you haven't got the
I love this person part
to make it all okay
it's not your family
when you're growing up
you're basically housemates then
but it's your parents
you're their kids
it's fucking
there's love there
living with another human being
is unbearable
mate I've had
my best ever housemate
was Andy Hunt
big lad from Barnsley
and I fucking loved him
and even
we had a couple of moments and he was the best housemate I've ever housemate was Andy Hunt, big lad from Barnsley, and I fucking loved him. And even we had a couple of moments,
and he was the best housemate I've ever had.
He was amazing.
And it's still annoying.
I left the key in the door once on the side,
and he couldn't get in, and he fucking bollocked me.
I was like, oh, God.
It was really bad.
And it's because sharing a fucking living space with 28-year-olds
that drink too much is not easy.
Yeah, I think that's
the fucking compromise in it piss off to your mum and dad's you're fucking sorry you're right adam
you're hungry aren't you i can tell i am thinking about that sandwich you just literally you just
weren't there for that last bit when i went you're fucking sorry adam's head's gone you know not in
a bad way, not like,
oh,
my head's fucking gone.
I can't stop thinking about it.
I'm just,
all I can picture is gravy
going onto a chicken sandwich.
Oh,
mate,
we found a takeaway.
We found a takeaway
in Chester.
We've tried fucking loads
that we've not liked.
And there's this one
on Just Eat
and its reviews
aren't that good.
And I was like,
I've tried every other, the reviews are way better. Finally, made my way around's this one on just eat and its reviews aren't that good and i was like i've
tried every other the reviews are way better finally made my way around to this one almost
begrudgingly that fuck it we'll give it a try oh it's amazing we've had it last two nights oh i'm
gonna get so fucking fat and happy i think i might get it should i go for the hat trick oh yeah
brook street i started dieting today because i want to be skinny again but i might that was so fucking funny that those two pictures you put on this is me a few years ago i lost weight
i was a beautiful man and the picture that you posted of your fucking head your big lockdown
your big rona head you know this picture's been going around the internet of like these are uh
this is a symptom of the Ronin.
They've been showing, like, sore toes.
I think if you showed your fucking head,
I'd be like, that's also a symptom.
You're definitely such a...
My head's...
The other day when Davina did that video on Twitter,
it's on the Have A Word fucking Twitter,
I did a video singing Ronin Keaton because of this.
I stand for Have A Word. She was like, you sound like you're doing because of this. It's time I have a word.
She was like, you sound like you're doing
It's amazing. So I sang the song
and then afterwards I was like, oh, that's funny.
I'll make some people laugh there. I got home
and I was looking at it and I really nearly
deleted it because my fucking head
looks so fat and round.
Oh.
My hair is becoming
a serious problem
and I only noticed it yesterday
because yesterday
what we were doing in the house was
what we've done for the past few weeks
every time we do a clothes wash
we do some laundry
as soon as they're clean and dry we've just put them in a bin bag
and thrown the bin bag into our box room
so we've gone
through all of our clothes because every time
something gets cleaned,
it essentially gets
locked away forever.
So we've just been
going through all the stuff.
So yesterday,
because we're doing
this swap around
of the two rooms,
we said,
right,
we need to sort the house out
before we do that.
So the first thing to do
is the clothes room.
So we've gone through,
we've got,
there's nothing in the clothes room
at the minute
apart from storage.
And we're just going through everything we've got, trying it on. And clothes room at the minute apart from storage and we're just going through
everything we've got, trying it on
and if it doesn't fit or we don't like it, it's
going in the bin. I
about 12%
of my clothes fit.
Jesus.
I'm throwing coats,
jackets, shoes, everything's going
in the fucking bin.
And I was trying something on, I think, like a hat, I don't know,
but I looked at me face and I was like,
look at the fucking size of my head.
And that's when I did that post.
You have got, I'm not joking, you know,
there's a lot going on with your head, isn't there?
Like, you've got, there's a lot going on.
Like, you know, some people are like,'t there's not there's not many features you've got a very busy head
i've got the beard i've got the eyebrows i've got a dodgy eye a tiny up nose a lot going on
you know if you committed a crime and there was like a sketch for you,
the artist who was doing your...
They get halfway through going,
I'm fucking...
My hand's killing me.
I'm fucking...
Going through three pencils for this fucking...
Oh, you're getting nasty, Dan.
I remember you used to be sound.
He could tell he's hungry.
Like, what's your comeback?
I haven't got a comeback.
I just want a sandwich.
I'm fucking starving.
Here's the song.
And the song is
Sandwich, Sandwich, Tasty Sandwich
by The Subways.
The song is called Sick and Sin.
It's by a band called Weekends Away
who has been featured before.
Their Instagram is
weekends.away underscore.
That's weekends.away underscore.
The song is thick and thin.
It's an absolute falcon tune.
We'll see you all again on Monday. I'll always feel nervous when I'm with you
My brain's screaming at me saying don't fuck this up now
I wanna spend the rest of my life with you I want you by my side, don't wanna be left
behind Left behind I wanna watch you grow up with me
I wanna watch you achieve your dreams
Be the happiest you can be
And we'll stay together through thick and thin
And I'll sing this song to you
And I will sing this song to you
I remember the first time I laid my eyes upon you
That nervous smile, it took me by surprise
never smile it took me by surprise
there are no words
to describe how I
feel about you
when I'm with you
girl time flies
by
time flies by
I wanna watch you grow Time flies by.
I want to watch you grow up with me.
I want to watch you achieve your dreams. Be the happiest you can be.
And we'll stay together through fear and sin.
And I'll sing this song to you.
And I will sing this song to you
Is there something I have never said before
I cannot believe that I am yours
Is there something I have never said before.
