We're back in business, baby!
Whatever happened, whatever happened, my, my, my, my, my.
I don't know what happened then.
I felt music in my soul, and it was, it was, take that.
It was, take that.
Did you, have you seen Gogglebox, the celebrity Gogglebox?
Yeah.
So. I don't really watch much telly you see but i know
what you're done about yeah so neither do i yeah but when you've got a partner you end up watching
telly don't you like doing that thing of like yeah i'm not watching it i'm just on my phone
and then all of a sudden you're like who's that how what's happened there? When you're trying to get the backstory. That is exactly how I get Jade to watch films.
Yeah.
I go, okay, you don't want to watch anything.
Well, I'm going to put a film on.
You can just go on your phone.
And I did it with Lord of Bidens Citizen about six months ago.
I just put Lord of Bidens Citizen on.
Jade's like, that's not my thing at all.
I don't.
And then like 15 minutes in, she's like, so his daughter was killed.
You're on the hook.
The fish is on the hook.
I got you.
Yeah.
Uh,
Goggle box,
uh,
Goggle box.
Just everything about that makes me not,
it's celebrities.
I mean,
Goggle box,
if you're not from the UK or you've got taste,
you might not know what Gogglebox is.
They basically set up cameras on people's TVs,
facing them as they watch popular shows on television.
It's so simple, and it works surprisingly well.
I've actually seen some Gogglebox over the last several years,
and sometimes it is quite funny.
The celebrity one, I give give him it it's pretty good
they've got a few celebrities you're like well i'm not bothered but there's a couple that are
genuinely fun but the one that has freaked me out more than ever is sean rider and bez who
honestly oh my god it you sort of look a bit like their love child don't you fuck me
it is brutal how old is sean rider he must be how old am i 39 he must be 50 maybe he's 52 53
he looks so fucking old but he looks old like from his like like from a different era of old
he looks like an old man from like like he's a victorian sailor like how many long voyages
have you done sean rider a combination of shit food cocaine booze and the e-cigarette he's smoking
on the tv because he's a numpty and he looks dreadful if on
goggle box they'd have watched it he'd if he's on camera having a heart attack everyone's gonna be
like yeah saw that coming and there's bears and he must have taken an equal amount of fucking drugs
with happy mondays back in the day but he's a vegan he lives in chalton he lives that vegan
semi-lesbian lifestyle and he looks great and I'm not joking since I've accidentally
hang on
eggs there's fucking eggs in me MDMA
go fuck yourself mate
I don't want
I don't want any ketamine
that's been through a horse
I'm happy to take the horse tranquiliser
but I don't want anyone
any horse products dickhead
he's got milk in.
No!
He looks...
Yeah, you can't cut
his cocaine with milk powder.
But he looks good for it.
Are you sure that drugs are vegan?
Mate, anyone who is a vegan
and buys fair trade
can never have cocaine.
Because how did it get here?
It didn't get a fair trade, did it?
It got here off the butt of a 92 year old Ecuadorian woman.
Customs like, can we have a word?
Jade loves those programs, you know, like Australian border control and stuff.
They are good.
That's one of the things I've watched, like when the other way around,
when Jade's put it on and I'm like, I'm not fucking interested in this.
And then I just get into it.
And the fucking idiots on that program who literally,
they've got a border control guy in front of them.
And he goes, right.
If you admit that there's anything in this bag right now,
then the sentence is less we can deal with it
but as soon as I start searching it
is there anything you haven't told me about
then you know you're going to be in a lot
of trouble and they go
no
there's nothing in there and he zips
it and there's like a big fucking bag
labeled cocaine
like it's got the label on it and everything.
And they're just like, oh, is that not allowed?
Mate, that's one of those ones.
In that moment, you're like,
unless you have a very complicated bag,
the gate, how many compartments?
That's what it's there for.
You know, the bottom of your suitcase.
Like, that's the secret compartment.
Customs don't know about that.
Did you see the Daily Mirror write up about Celebrity Gogglebox?
Go on.
Because they had a photo of Mo Gilligan. The Daily Mirror write up about Celebrity Gogglebox. Go on.
Because they had a photo of Mo Gilligan and... Fumbi.
No, it wasn't Fumbi.
I think it was Babatunde.
It was Mo Gilligan and another black comic from London.
And it's funny that we don't know who the other guy was
because the reason I bring it up is the Daily Mirror got them wrong.
So they said it was the YouTuber KSI
and someone else.
Which happens all the time. It happened about
two years ago when they printed a transfer
story about Luke Harker on the back
page with a photo of Stormzy.
And it's just like, this is always
awful. But to mistake
Mo Gilligan for KSI,
this week of all fucking weeks,
Black Lives Matter riots and protests all over the planet,
and they fucking misidentify a fucking black guy
in a national newspaper.
There wasn't one person who could go,
can we just double check this?
It is fucking insane.
Can you imagine?
Mo Gilligan, the day before that article got printed.
By the way, if no one knows who Mo Gilligan is,
he's got a Netflix special out.
He's had his own show on Channel 4.
He was the co-host of The Big Nasty Show.
He's a social media sensation,
and he's a funny, charismatic bastard.
Mo is one of the funniest people I've met.
He's just, when you're around him, you feel good. He's just got this fucking aura. He's such a good lad. And I think I just
wanted to say that, but he got nominated for a BAFTA the same day that the Daily Mirror
like misidentified him as a fucking YouTuber called KSI, who was one of the ones who did that
boxing thing at the Staples Centre. But can you imagine
being a black guy from
South London and you work your way up,
you make yourself with your own videos,
you get on Live at the Apollo, you get your
own, you get to co-host a show on Channel 4
then they go, you're amazing, here's your own
show on Channel 4.
Then you get a Netflix special, then
your show on Channel 4 gets nominated for
a fucking BAFTA. And then you get asked to do Celebrity Gog show on Channel 4 gets nominated for a fucking BAFTA,
and then you get asked to do Celebrity Gogglebox,
and the Daily Mirror call you some other black guy.
Fuck me, can you imagine how annoying that is?
This week.
This week.
Like, I mean, even if you accept that there's no one who's in that editing process like in that office that's
black that can go mate darren just listen i'm just talking from a perspective of knowledge here
don't make that mistake because that looks stupid i'm not even talking for my people i'm just talking
for common sense but there's no one in the office but do you not think even if it's all white that
office they're they're covering the black lives matter protest they're being journalists do you not think even if it's all white that office they're they're covering the black lives
matter protest they're being journalists do you not think they're like we should definitely just
be extra careful with those details no they're just fuck knuckles no like i i'm a staunch like
believer at times that like if you make a mistake it and you apologize and own up to it it's
forgivable and you shouldn't lose
your job or your career for whatever
but shit like that in a week like this
whoever fucking printed that, whoever okayed
it and checked it and went yeah that's KSI
they should be fucking sacked
immediately, they should not
be working at the Daily Miner right now
and they're not, there's no one high up
they're down the
it's not like you're taking away the editor's job that's not his, that's one of the lowliest jobs, you're like dude you're not, there's no one high up. They're down the, it's not like you're taking away the editor's job.
It's not, that's not his.
That's one of the lowliest jobs.
You're like, dude, you're not good enough.
And you know, like people losing their job for things they've done 15,
20 years ago, as insensitive as it is,
whether it's people blacking up or doing crap jokes or being,
if the parameters change over time, it's very difficult to go 20 years ago
you were bang out of order i mean no one pulled you up then but we're pulling you up now find that
very difficult but if it was two days ago and you still have the job then you are culpable aren't
you fucking pull your socks up dickhead obviously Obviously, the scope of acceptability changes with periods of time.
And after certain things happen and certain sociological movements happen,
then we go, right, that's no longer acceptable.
Like, Little Britain was one of the most popular TV programs comedy-wise
15 years ago, 10, 15, 20 years ago, whenever it was.
It was like one of the highest-raised shows in, 10, 15, 20 years ago, whenever it was, it was one of the highest
razored shows in BBC
history, I think. It was very,
very, very popular. And now
you look at it and you go,
it's ableist,
racist, offensive nonsense.
And David Walliams is seen as a really
good guy. He's the friendly one on Britain's Got Talent,
isn't he? He's so blacked up.
It's not even just blacked up. He's fat blacked up.
He's got a massive wig on
and they put a gap between his teeth.
Mama like that.
Mama like that.
Look at it. I showed
Jade it the other day and she was like, who's that?
I was like, it's David Walliams.
This didn't happen in the fucking 70s
and 80s where
even more horrific things were
acceptable. This happened like
the Millennium Dome was
built before this happened.
Also, was it on YouTube?
No, no, no, no, no. Was it on a
subscription-based channel? No, no.
Was it even Channel 5, who are essentially
morons? No, the taxpayers paid for it.
And did anyone complain to points of view?
No, because everyone's like, these guys are hilarious.
Bitty.
Oh, fuck.
I mean, I'm not piling on, because I really do think there has to be some sort of, like,
that was then, this is now now we know better some things age
badly some things some things stand the test of time we were talking about richard pryor's comedy
you can i mean christ almighty i'd love to look at what the other specials were going out at that
time compared to what was happening in the late 70s but genuinely i didn't rate Little Britain that much. And it's one of those ones where it's so obvious.
When people have a go at Friends,
now that happened about six months, a year ago, didn't it?
Friends got attacked for being really sort of,
you know, there's basically no one of a different sexuality
or ethnicity.
It's like hi
white straight friends
and have you seen
Garrett Millerick's routine
about that no it's
fucking brilliant and yesterday randomly
I just want to give a shout out to two they are
mates of mine but yesterday I went
for a walk with
the dog and I also had to go and do
some driving to get some carpet and stuff for the house,
which is so close to being finished.
I'm really excited.
And I just put two comedy albums on,
but I didn't go for like the Americans
that I normally listen to.
I listened to Garrett Millerick's Sunflower
and Alfie Brown's Lunatic.
They're both on Spotify
and you can buy them as well.
And I would encourage you to buy
and support artists whenever you can.
But even if you just want to stream them on
Spotify they're both
fucking brilliant. Alfie Brown's gotta be
on a live show so have a word
on him. If we're doing have a word
live shows just stand up
he has got some of my favourite
shit. His
show Lunatic which I've seen in Edinburgh
and I believe
was absolutely robbed of a best show nomination
is available
as an album and it's so good it's so
cerebral and funny and
intelligent and challenging
and Sunflower by Garrett
is a
I don't want to ruin anything about it but it
starts as a really fun upbeat
stand up show and just twists
and turns and becomes something else
and it's fucking excellent.
And he did so well with Sunflower
that he ended up getting on Conan in America
before he'd done any British TV show.
So that's how good it was.
He's got a routine about friends,
about a guy saying to him,
I was watching Friends today, it's so bad,
it's so problematic.
And he's like, what's wrong with it?
He's like, well, it'd be a lot less offensive
if one of them wasn't white.
And he's like, would it really?
And then he goes to all the characters.
He's like, right, let's make Joey black.
Tell me that's not a more offensive program.
He loves to fuck.
He loves to eat.
And he's pretty stupid.
He's lazy as shit. He fucks anything that moves he steals
from his friends let's make phoebe mexican oh smelly cat oh hey that's so fucking good
let's make ross chinese Why has he got a monkey?
Why is he not allowed to live with any of the others?
Why has he only seen his son twice in a decade?
Oh, man, he's picked that off beautifully.
Oh, it's fucking... Garrett Millerick.
Garrett Millerick, Sunflower.
Yeah.
I'm writing that down.
It's not available as a special.
It's an album, but it's so fucking good
I fucking love I love audio
I sell my stuff audio
just because I haven't
really been able to film something
properly I've done stuff at home
but I love an audio I love stand up in the
car or on your iPod
it's really good and it's
a testament to the quality of
the writing if it works
over audio without the visual as well.
I actually
continued listening to Garrett's
album yesterday because the night before
often when I'm going to sleep I'll put a podcast on
but that's actually when I put Garrett's
album on when I was going to sleep
and I
laughed so hard at one
point that I pushed a fart out.
And the fart and the laugh woke Jade up and it really, really, really pissed her off.
It's a bit about Paul Catamount, who used to be in S Club 7,
having to sell his Brit Award and the person who bought it off him.
And it's so ridiculously fucking hilarious.
Even though I knew my missus was asleep next to me,
I couldn't hold the laughing
and I laughed so hard and because I was
tense and I just farted as well
she was like are you fucking kidding me
you wake me up by laughing and now the room fucking
stinks you to fucking knob
did he really Paul from S Club 7
had to sell his Brit award
well I haven't googled it
I don't want to yeah let's not i don't
want to ruin the joke um and it's actually you listen to sunflower and then we'll talk about it
because it's so fucking good it's so good that's when when you're watching comedy that is really
like in like the train of thought is so original, but it's completely relatable.
That's such clever comedy, isn't it?
Because everyone can get esoteric and complicated
and use references that people don't understand.
And it's basically a sort of Oxbridge type,
graduate only feel to the comedy.
Like, well, obviously you don't understand
what I'm talking about because it's not for
everyone but the incredible comedy is is when it's just stand-up about everyday life and stuff that
everyone gets but it's the confidence to have that thought and focus on it as the funny thing as the
stuff that could be comedy everyone knows what a brit award is it's a music award for british music
everyone remembers s club seven it's terrible pop band it's
something like i'm genuinely looking forward to watching that whoa terrible pop band do you rate
s club 7 are you fucking kidding me they're one of the best bands of all time and i'll fight anyone
yeah who says otherwise i fucking love a bit of s club yeah well i think within 18 months
you better be up on your S Club
because they're going to be fucking
spaced throughout the night, all their greatest hits
Reach for the stars
Come every mountain
up and fucking dance
Up
Ain't nobody like an S Club
Gonna show you how
Bradley
who was the BAME one.
I mean, that's aged really well, isn't it, for S Club?
You know?
They went the anti-friends route.
They really fucking saw that one coming and got Bradley in.
I mean, I started the episode singing Take That, so I can't.
I'm not going to.
And then there was the blonde one who went on Big Brother and was racist.
Said something fucking dodgy about the Indian actress.
Oh, Jesus.
Yeah.
Oh, Jesus.
Yeah.
Fucking hell.
Did you, I just wanted to check if you knew what had happened to the policeman
that got her knocked off the horse by a headbutt in the traffic light
because it's the kind of thing that I see on Twitter
and I'm like, that's fascinating.
I actually Googled it.
If you've not seen, it's basically just something I saw on Twitter.
The riots in...
Riot, fuck, you know.
I stopped myself.
The protest in London was, from all accounts,
not particularly violent,
but then the police sort of ramped it up a little bit,
felt like they needed to lay down the law.
There was no violence at all at the Manchester protests,
and the police weren't there.
And that's saying something.
If you don't know Manchester Manchester it's not the most
sedate city centre
I mean there's
violence most days
in some form
so
they're really
having to work hard
to be like
alright leave it
lads leave it
do you know what I mean
this one's for Bradley
for a mess club
Rob Mulholland
who's a friend of ours
and a friend of the podcast
like
he went to the Manchester one and he said it was wonderful.
People just there, distancing themselves as much as possible,
all got masks on and a proper peaceful protest.
And London just wasn't that, was it?
Is it because they're so close to Downing Street
that they're like, you're so close to hugely important, influential government
buildings that they're just tetchier.
They're just tetchier at the prospect
of something going wrong. In Manchester
City Centre, it's like Piccadilly Gardens and whatnot.
They're like, yeah, yeah, it's just near Primark, isn't it?
You're going to, what, take out a Burger King?
I don't really know.
And I'll be honest with you,
I'm
trying to avoid as much of it as I can.
I don't want to be out of the loop.
So I'm checking stuff every now and then,
and I'm trying to make sure I know all the relevant stuff.
But I sort of, like I said what I said last time,
I support the protests,
and I won't judge anyone for doing anything that they do during them, I really won't
because I don't feel like I'm in a position to do so
and I also don't
want to just
slag the police off or the people who are
saying
this is going to lead to a COVID spike
because it is
and there's
so many massive complex issues at play here
and I don't know why it was more violent in London.
There's a correlation between where the police are
and where they aren't
and it's easy to go,
that's because of the police
and it probably is,
but it's too complicated
and I feel like
I keep looking at the replies on Twitter
to different opinions.
I'm not offering as many of my own at the minute.
I'm just looking at what other people are saying,
trying to get an informed view on it without just spouting my usual shite because I'm the offering as many of my own at the minute. I'm just looking at what other people are saying, trying to get an informed view on it
without just spouting my usual shite.
Because I'm the type of person who's just like,
well, I think this, and I'm going to tell everyone.
And I don't think that necessarily helps.
And at the minute, I'm looking at people posting opinion,
and the replies are 50-50 of,
you're a dickhead and you're a hero to everything.
And I really, really, really don't know what's coming next.
And I don't know what's going to happen.
And the government have quite clearly picked the side now
and basically gone, you shouldn't be doing this
and we're going to start cracking down on it.
They're essentially doing a light version of what Trump is doing in America,
which I think is disgusting.
Essentially doing a light version of what Trump is doing in America,
which I think is disgusting.
And I just, I'm quite, I'm quite anxious,
I think is the word, for what's coming next.
And like Tommy Robinson, the fucking daft, horrible, racist cunt,
is now like, there's an arranged meeting next week in London,
which apparently he's had nothing to do with organising and he's done this ranty video yesterday which
he looked like a knobhead in it and everyone
who's on my feed is sharing
it going oh what a dickhead
but I imagine there's also the other side of Twitter
who's like Tommy's a fucking hero
way but he said something
in it which really pissed me off
in his rant video
and if anyone doesn't know who Tommy Robinson is
I'm not going to explain but just go and google him
he's basically a far right
anti-Muslim
knobhead
a shithouse cunt as well
a proper shithouse
and he said
anyone, any man
especially if you're the type of lad
who goes to football,
you should be in London next week with us
ready to defend our war memorials
from these rats.
And I'm like,
don't you fucking dare
lump football fans in
with your fucking ideologies.
Yeah, there's a load of racist dickheads
who go to football
the same way there is that goes to fucking rugby
and cricket or anything else.
There's racists in the country, I fucking shitload of them and they go
to all sorts. But don't try and claim
football as your fucking thing.
Football's the sport I love and I think
you're a fucking knobhead. And if you were in
my face, I'd fucking headbutt you.
You horrible little rat. Don't fucking lump all football
fans in with your fucking bullshit.
And also,
Edward Colston, the statue that was pulled down in
bristol he's not a fucking war hero he's a slave trader do you know what i mean like that's the
major statue that's been pulled down in the uk in bristol which is a very sort of liberal city
anyway like they are it's a pretty chilled left wing feel to it i was quite impressed that
it was bristol that kicked off because they like liverpool like like a lot of the major ports in
the uk they've got a history of like trading but bristol a lot of history of slave trading
and edward colston was from there worked out of london he made like the equivalent of like tens of millions and millions of pounds from slave
83 000 slaves and when 16 000 of which died on the way here fucking hell when you pull down that
statue and everyone going i can't believe it you're like yeah but it's it's made everyone go
who's edward colston oh yeah he's a dirty horrible fucking slave trader who tried to who tried to sort of absolve himself by donating a lot of his wealth to charity like sorry mate that's not
not how it works yeah there's been some great tweets about it there was one guy who said it
it was put up because of his charity work not because of his slave trade and someone replied
and said all right like can i build a statue of Jimmy Savile
in your front garden
nailed it mate
nailed it beautifully done
but like
this shows my limitations
and the reason I'm trying to have
less vocalised opinions on certain things
because I'm not educated on everything
and you have to think
there comes a point where you have to go I'm just going to listen for a bit here.
And like when I first found out yesterday,
they were about to pull the Churchill statue down
and they were defacing it.
I was like, oh, that's bad, isn't it?
Because he fucking helped us through the world war
against the Nazis.
And then I'm very lucky and blessed now
that I've got a lot of people
from ethnic minority backgrounds,
black people and Asian people.
And I'm talking South and backgrounds, black people and Asian people,
and I'm talking South and West Asian people and East Asian people,
who showed me all these quotes and things Churchill did.
And yeah, he did defeat the Nazis, but he was also,
he had some of a horrendously racist views himself,
just because he was the,
it's like Satan Dave said at the Brit Awards last year,
they say we should be blessed because the UK is the least racist.
I say the least racist is still racist.
Yeah, it's true.
But then again, you know, I mean, also Churchill was a fucking rotter to the working classes in general.
He turned the British army, I mean, I think it was Oldham or Rochdale,
he turned the army on, like, Unionists.
He's got a checkered history.
But if David Walliams is allowed to do Britain's Got Talent still
and he blacked up 12 years ago, Churchill's what?
When all of these ills were, like, the 20s, 30s, like, 100 years ago?
It's a fucking difficult argument isn't it like could you go
could you look at every statue that is around every british city and go right where the
question marks here because i bet there's fucking question marks all over them yeah
yeah really really difficult i love it how i made that about david williams and britain scott
fucking hell do you know what i mean paul paul williams is statue made that about David Walliams and Britain's Got... Fucking hell! Do you know what I mean?
Paul Walliams is statue now.
With David Walliams, I don't
think you can really hold David Walliams
that accountable.
That was a show made by the BBC.
Yeah, he blacked up,
but it was obviously acceptable
enough when he did it for the BBC
to go,
cool! We've seen the tape. put it on at nine o'clock
on friday night that was acceptable enough for the bbc to produce it this wasn't a three o'clock
in the morning show on channel four this wasn't fucking terry christian's baffley shite at fucking
11 o'clock for post pub tv this was. This was primetime, tax-funded.
Yeah, you'd have to sack a lot of people, wouldn't you? You'd have to cancel a lot of people
because they were all part of that artistic decision.
Yeah, we look back on it now and go,
that's disgusting, but we've got to be honest
and say we were all sitting there,
not necessarily me and you,
but most people were sitting watching Little Britain
and laughing at it and going, this is funny, and that's a funny sketch.
A lot of people were doing it.
The only gay in the village did make me laugh.
I mean, it wasn't all annoying.
There was just some of it that was the breastfeeding adult was annoying.
But the only gay in the village was funny.
I'm sure it's really offensive now, but it still made me laugh.
Well, if you haven't seen the pictures of the policeman on a horseback headbutt
in a traffic light even if you sympathize even if you think it's just as a fuck me that is one of
those ones where you're like you know you watch them in a tweet you're like oh i've seen that
i was on like the eighth go around going what the fuck seeing a guy ride a horse and there's like
seven of his mates and they're obviously like right these cunts are getting leery we've got a
job to do come on boys and he's got slightly to the left and he's like seven of his mates and they're obviously like right these cunts are getting leery we've got a job to do
come on boys
and he's got slightly to the left
and he's looking somewhere else
and doesn't see
the massive traffic light
at head angle
and oh my god
and then you're like
oh fuck
I hope he's alright
and you're like
well what were you doing
on a horse
charging at people
oh
it was a lot
that was a lot
can you imagine what what did you say what it felt like charging at people. Oh, it was a lot. That was a lot.
Can you imagine what?
What did you say?
What it felt like.
And then the last thing you see is that it was on red
and you're like,
ah!
Fucking hell.
Right.
That was a nice balance
of real life
and fucking nonsense.

the rest of humanity,
David Guetta,
any cunt.
Um,
this one, these, these are are the three this is the parameters
such parameters you've got to eat one of these every day eat one of them once a month you can't
eat it more than once a month you have to eat it once a month and the other thing you you're never
allowed to eat again you don't't even get a last supper.
It's just gone.
Daily, monthly, never.
Daily, monthly, never again.
Lamb.
I'm such a twat.
I've put Big Mac, but what's your McDonald's flavour?
Big Tasty.
I love a Big Mac as well I'm going to say
it's lamb and then McDonald's
okay
and the last one is fish and chips
from your chippy
so lamb, Maccy D's
fish and chips, I mean it's the
holy trinity really isn't it
the Maccy's definitely going to fucking let me in lads
that's a fucking problem with me
fucking call back
fucking keeping the door shut kid episode 2 going to fucking let me in, lads. That's a fucking problem with me. Fucking call back.
Fucking keeping the door shut, kid.
Episode two.
Maccies every day.
Lamb once a month. Fish and chips in the bin.
Really?
Easy.
Too easy.
Adam, why have you never been no more?
We miss when you... Order. Order, Adam. Why have you never been no more? We miss when you...
Order.
Order.
Order.
You said fish and chips.
If you go with the chippy as a whole,
that would change things.
Oh, that's what I meant.
Oh, caveat.
Caveat.
Chippy.
I'm actually writing it down like it's official fucking...
Like there's minutes to the meeting.
Everyone's going to be like,
Dan, can we see those notes notes lamb big lamb mcdonald's chippy all chippies including your
favorite so you can't order sorry i thought you took that too easily the fuck with mcdonald's is
it's got the massive menu you're gonna mess around with it as a
daily aren't you but that like we've seen supersized no mackie's going in the bin here chippy every day
lamb every month mackie's in the bin
mate chippy every day well yeah because i don't want to have to have lamb every day. Well, yeah, because I don't want to have to have
lamb every day. Whereas in the chippy,
I could get an omelette one day,
I could get salt and pepper chicken
another day, curry another day,
just some starters day after that,
fish and chips. There's options.
If you have to eat McDonald's every day,
at least you could be like, oh, I'm so
bored of McDonald's, but I can go for a bit
of breakfast, go for a hash brown.
You can't lose lamb, can you?
You can't lose lamb.
That's what I'm hearing from you.
But I also don't want to eat it every day.
So lamb has to be the monthly.
So it's basically between chippy every day and Maccy D's every day.
Yeah.
And I take, because I love the Chinese.
I love Chinese food. I love prawn the Chinese I love Chinese food I love
prawn toast I love salt and pepper
chicken I love beef
curry with egg fried rice
I love spring rolls I love
barbecue ribs I love prawn
crackers you really reminded
me of Friday I like pig
feet
every time
I come in the kitchen,
you in the kitchen,
in the goddamn refrigerator.
All right, well done.
Well done.
Okay.
This is more of an industry one.
You get to exclusive,
you have to exclusively watch
this media provider and no other or you work for
them and the other one you cancel so okay watch work for obliterate youtube netflix sky
so just if you're if you're not from the UK Skies are basically like our
cable, it's not cable but it's basically
our equivalent of cable
there's entertainment, there's film
but there's crucially Sky fucking sports
which is pretty good
so
The Tube, where Adam Special
club comedian is right now
or club comic sorry
Netflix which is let's be honest
the fucking dream
for every comedian. And Sky.
Watch YouTube, work for Netflix,
Sky in the bin.
Really?
Yeah. Not being able to watch Netflix
would be a fucker, wouldn't it?
Yeah, but you can
illegally stream lots of fucking stuff
and there's loads on YouTube
and you can buy the DVDs.
Yeah,
that's true.
There's not DVDs
of stuff that's on YouTube.
Fuck,
it's just reminding me
I need to finish Last Dance.
Laura's lost interest.
I knew she would.
Sky goes right in the bin.
Sky's shit really
apart from the sport
and again,
I can find a stream for that shit
and if I'm not allowed to do that I go to a lot of games
anyway and a lot of them are on BT Sport
and there's also Match of the Day
Sky in the bin, Netflix, give me me money
YouTube, I'll have a little
Google of you
I tell you what, we all want to work for Netflix
you can't really work, I mean Adam
already works for YouTube, any bell sniff
with a fucking
YouTube's really useful it's great all comedians should have stuff on youtube and it's
only been the last few years where they've worked that out but to work with netflix 22 000 views
baby oh well done man me special thanks to everyone who's watched it and keep watching it if you
have and if you haven't then go and fucking watch
it and spread the words
put a netflix special
oh a netflix special
fuck me Adam I mean I want one but I'd
love you to get one because this podcast would go through
the fucking roof
tell you where Sky
tell you where Sky's amazing when you've got a kid it's just so
good to be like instead of having to faff it's just so many films so many tv channels and i'm
not saying that i let that i'll let sky parent my child but when you've got like at the moment i've
got her six hours monday to thursday i've got her from 8 30 in the morning till 2 30 in the morning
two of those hours have to be me sat next to her
watching something.
Otherwise I'll go fucking mental.
Because I tell you what's happened recently.
My daughter has decided she loves me
more than she's ever loved me before.
There was a point about a year ago
where I was doing her fucking head in.
And she'd only just learned to talk.
But if she had more of a vocabulary, she'd be like, Daddy, you're a dickhead. Back the fuck off. You're doing fucking head in and she'd only just learned to talk but if she had more of a vocabulary
she'd be like daddy you're a dickhead back the fuck off you're doing my head in you're annoying
you're not as good as mum and also every time you try and kiss me you've got a fucking beard and it
hurts and it was it was clear that she i was just doing a head in and yeah of course she still loved
me and everything but something's happened during this shutdown,
I don't know if it's I've just been home more, oh my god, she's like, this guy's amazing, and at the same time, it's been really, like, enjoyable to have the most important little person in your
world be like, daddy, you're brilliant, and now at bedtime, she's never done this before,
instead of being like, mummy, where's mummy? Obviously I want mummy. You're the fucking part-time member of staff.
Fuck off.
She's like, daddy.
She's actually, a couple of nights ago,
told mummy to get out of her bedroom because she wanted daddy.
This is like the first time this has ever happened.
And this has been, she's now three and a bit years old.
This has been about maybe 10 days of this.
And I'm already fucking knackered from her affection.
It is unrelenting,
and I sort of miss being a ball bag in her eyes.
Sky would be hard to give up for the ease of just like,
bang, there's a film, bang, fuck me.
You got Netflix for that?
Yeah.
Or YouTube?
Yeah.
Amazon or anything?
Yeah, you're right.
But with the TV channels.
So, next one is a bit more of a geographical one.
Holiday.
Four-day holiday.
Long weekend.
Move there for a year.
I was going to put destroy, but it's just too aggressive.
Never, never visit.
You never get to go.
So holiday, move.
Right, okay.
Destroy.
Destroy.
I'm going big here, mate.
Rome, Paris, Madrid.
In my head
you'll have some
weird
Liverpool football club
reason
to dislike
at least two of these cities
like oh yeah
you cunts
did us in the final
no it's nothing to do with that
erm
holiday to Rome
because I think it looks
really nice
and
I've always wanted to go there
for a bit.
Move to Paris,
because it's close enough that I can still gig.
There's actually a comedian who lives in Paris,
Ian Moore, and still commutes to Britain for his gigs.
And nuke Madrid,
because who the fuck needs Madrid
when you've got the Costa del Sol kid?
Yeah, well, having been to all three,
I would honestly say that maybe I might swap Rome for Paris there,
but Madrid's just like a Spanish London.
That sounds...
It sounds so eggy, but, you know,
I've been to Barcelona and you're in Barcelona,
which I think, weirdly, if you're a northern... Like, if you're a northern like if you're a northern lad you feel an affiliation with barcelona because they're
they're the outsiders they're catalonia they've been they've been fucking shat on by franco and
the spanish government for years they're desperately trying to get their independence
which i think everyone in the north would fucking love although it wouldn't work out
um but when i was there i was oh yeah, it's really pretty, but
it just looks a bit like London,
except I can't understand what the fuck everyone's saying.
When you're in Barcelona, it's way more...
I don't know, it's just Barcelona doesn't
remind me of anywhere.
Rome is a great
place to try and get laid, eh?
So, see you there, babes.
Live show, Rome.
Wigan, Dudley, Slough, so see you there babes live show rome um wigan dudley slough i mean it's the next three places that ring off the tongue isn't it like rome paris madrid wigan dudley slough same question same question holiday for four days
which would be nearly as hard as living there for a year. Wigan, one of the worst places in the North West.
I saw Swigan, but you are.
Dudley, one of the least attractive places in the West Midlands.
And Slough, which is a fucking hairy testicle
flapping from a dying dog's crotch of a town.
Slough is gone.
Nuked.
Bye. Bye, Felicia. town. Slough is gone. Nuked. Bye.
Bye, Felicia. Bye, Slough.
I'll go on holiday to Dudley
so I can fuck that off
after the bit, and then I'll live in Wigan
for a year because Wigan's not that far away from here
so I can still see my mates. I'm still
only about an hour away from Hotwater. If anything,
I'm closer to the Manchester gigs
and we can still
keep the podcast going.
35 minutes to Liverpool to Wigan?
You'd be alright. 40 minutes?
Yeah. The question is,
what the fuck would you do
in Dudley for four days?
How many times can you go to Nando's?
Like, alright, I'm here again.
Don't you want to try the local
cuisine? This is the fucking
local cuisine.
It's Dudley Nando's, your bell ends.
That was easy, that one.
I've got to stay local to Liverpool
and I don't want to go anywhere near fucking Slough
for four days.
Definitely not for a cunt in here.
Right, this one's a sport one.
Watch exclusively. You can only watch this sport. You sport one watch exclusively
you can only watch this sport
you can't watch any other sport
this is now your sport
yeah
play the game
and become
one of the best
four
players of this game
world number four
like you're not the best ever
you're not the best in the world
but you're well up there
you're making
relative bank
compared to the rest of them and then fucking put the the best in the world, but you're well up there. You're making relative bank compared to the rest of them.
And then fucking put the other sport in the bin forever.
No one ever gets to see it again.
Watch it again.
Golf, cricket, or tennis?
Golf, cricket, and tennis.
So, footy's just gone.
Footy's gone.
They've just decided it's done now it's completed
both cricket and tennis um well cricket's in the bin oh really
not yeah something very pleasant about having cricket on of an afternoon when you've got a
hangover and you just put it on and you couldn't really give a shit. Oh, it's just fucking shite. And anyone who thinks it isn't has just been like groomed to think it's good.
It's fucking shit.
I knew you'd make cricket a bit nonce-y.
You've not said nonce.
You've not said cricket pedo.
But I feel the word groomed is like, it's like, yeah,
I'm not saying you are a nonce, but you're probably a fucking nonce.
You can't even swing the bat properly.
You'd have to do a little...
It's just fucking shit.
It's like a little push in it.
It's more of a like...
Good of work.
Yeah.
And then the other two, like, it comes down to the fact that tennis is more entertaining
to watch than golf is to watch.
So I'd watch tennis and I'd be the world number four golfer.
Which, to be fair...
You're going to be making bank.
Yeah. World number four golfer, you, to be fair... You're going to be making bank. Yeah.
World number four golfer, you're making, what, 20 million a year?
That's probably just...
Yeah, that'll cover a few bills.
Plus, you're living in Wigan, so that's fine, isn't it?
And tennis is fucking sick to watch.
I love a good fucking game of tennis.
Genuinely, if you said to me you had to be the world number four,
if you could be the fourth best player of any sport in the world,
like I love the NFL, but I'll be fucked if I'm being the fourth best player
at the NFL because the chances of coming out with like Alzheimer's
because your head's been bashed all over the shop.
And I love the sport and I'm not taking like the injuries
that those guys suffer,
but that sport is speed and power.
And the speed ends when the power hits it.
That's basically how...
I've watched some collisions in the 10 years I've been watching NFL,
and I do love it, and it's the most addictive thing I've ever enjoyed.
But, oh, my God, you're like, how are they getting up?
Like, the traffic light and the policeman looks less aggressive
than when Antonio Brown got knocked out playing the fucking Bengals.
Yeah, golf, world number four, golf, you're just walking around,
just like fucking banging balls around.
I also want to get good at golf
I've started
swinging the stick
I was meant to go for the game on
Saturday
but my cousin put us back out
so we couldn't play
so I haven't been for an actual round yet
but I've been in the driving range
I'm getting a bit better
I'm getting more consistent
more distance
more straight
what do you think
where are you in the world rankings now
you're not four yet but I know you're a confident
person 17, 18 something like that
around there
like I'd definitely get
on the PGA Tour but
you know to be getting a medal
be
a bit of an ask at the minute I'd need a good
day I'd need to be on a course that I know
better than me competitors
West Derby links
there's a west derby golf club all right sorry shouldn't have laughed at that
but if i could be the fourth best player of any sport it'd be footy of course it would
yeah yeah yeah but that's just because you love footy it's not easy being a footballer is it
snakering like i know you love football
like you but for someone like me all right nice one yeah yeah i forgot you had three jogs um
but genuinely like even being fit it's still it's still a schlep in it you've got to train every day
you've got managers shouting at you plus there's the potential like you're the fourth
best player in the
world
and you're like
the best player
in the team
and everyone's a bit
shit
being the fourth
best footballer
in the world
sounds like
unappealing
compared to being
the fourth
you've got to run
you've got to do
what your manager
says
you've got to stick
to tactics
yes Dan
but that would be
worth it
for the endorsements,
for the adulation,
for walking out
into a 50,000 people stadium
every week
and having them shout
Ronaldinho!
Ronaldinho!
Ronaldinho!
Until you're at an away game
and they're like,
oh, you fucking dickhead!
I'm the fourth best player
in the world
so I'll just score a hat-trick and then get me dick out to celebrate. Right, good. I'm the fourth best player in the world, so I'll just score a hat-trick and then get my dick out to celebrate?
Right, good.
I'm just saying, as a comedian,
it's hard enough doing a fucking podcast with one other guy.
You have to give up a lot of control.
Imagine having to work with ten bell-ends.
Even if two of them are decent,
you know there's some fucking duffers.
And you're like, look, I'm the fourth best player in the world i'm ronaldinho i'll fucking whip it down the wing
you pass it about you fucked it up no bed no bed that's hard work golf you're just wandering around
i'm not going to be playing for fucking west brom am i i'm going to be in one of the best teams in
the world surrounded by other world-class players. What are you talking...
The fourth best player in the world isn't
playing Championship Football or League 2.
No, I know, I know, but there's not...
Not everyone's a worldie.
All I'm saying
is you have to play in the rain, you have to play in the
cold, you have to drive... Imagine...
Oh yeah, who have you got in the Champions League?
Kiev. Fuck my actual
life. I've got to fly to the Ukraine on a shitty early December Wednesday
to run around with fucking Juan Juanco.
Yeah, but golf, you're the fourth best golfer.
You literally play everywhere that's sunny and wealthy,
and you just wander around like it's raining.
Oh, we'll probably leave it then.
Oh, it's fucking so easy
no one's trying to break your ankle all I'm saying is
golf's not too bad
also
love to see a scouse golf
world number four get the
fuck in the hole lads come on you
fucking dick
why are scouses always aggressive in your fantasies
have you listened to have you has anyone
listened to this podcast
mate are you I'm fucking glue are you Bush is always aggressive in your fantasies. Have you listened to, have you, has anyone listened to this podcast?
Mate,
are you, are you on fucking glue?
Are you on fucking glue?
One of my favourite,
this is,
this is one of my favourite tropes of you,
mate.
You absolutely,
you go,
you go hard,
you go like consistent,
especially with have a words.
If they're from someone's girlfriend,
like,
right,
let me tell you about this fucking bitch right
and then if I dare to say
Liverpool has any hint
of an edge you're like whoa whoa whoa
what the fuck is this you're telling me
lad the good people of
Merseyside and their fair city
of Liverpool city of brotherly
love scouse lives matter
I'm not having it mate
the edge is real there is this
formative edge we are a meek people
do you call me fucking meek the fuck are you calling meek
we're welcoming we're helpful you're not meek you can't even say it uh look at him trying now he's really he's annoyed i can feel the annoyance but it would
really be like counterproductive to the argument if he went fuck you you don't um
all i'm saying is okay scouse golfer would be really quiet down pedophile there you go that's more
that's the language of the meek isn't it silence no how would the silence kiddie fiddler
no the me could be like shut up hey shut up with the meek
i could probably i don't know it's the wrong it's the wrong choice of accent for the meek
at the moment isn't it
oh dear

Jonathan Ross.
He's been in the news just recently.
Wannathon Wath.
There you go.
I'm Wannathon Wath, and this is the Wannathon Wath show.
Oh, mate!
Hi.
I know he's got a bit of a list, but he can definitely say his own name.
You've really...
He says Wannathon.
He doesn't say Wannathon W name. Really? He says Wanathan. He doesn't say Wanathan Woff.
Mate, that is someone who's bitten off the tongue in a car crash.
They do not get to host major... He says Wanathan Googly.
Hello, my name's Wanathan Woff.
If he couldn't say his name,
it wouldn't have been called The Jonathan Ross Show.
They'd have given it something easier.
No, they'd have called it something else.
Chat Hour.
Hello, my name is Wanda from Woff, and this is Chat Hour.
They'd have called it something different.
Like, if he can't say his own name,
they're not going to call the show The Wanda from Woff Show.
I can do Zach Dingle from Emmerdale.
Hey, up!
There we go, there's Zach.
Mate, I know this is not
the right time for it
with BLM going on
but as a white person
from the north
I found that offensive
I've really felt
stereotyped
hey up
hey
oi
we're losing ratings
to Coronation Street
here
is that
is that from the script
in the show
Emmerdale really break the fourth wall
a lot on that
fucking hell

as you're thinking about celebrities you're going to do
an impression of have a word pod

is talking.
We can have the recording edited and sent to you the very same day.
Find us at lightweightpodcast.com so we can help record your next podcast.
Send in your questions and suggestions to haveawadpod at gmail.com.
Let's crack on with this nonsense.
Adam, guess what time it is?
What time is it?
It's time to have
a word with Adam and Dan.
Tell us all the problems
you have with your friends.
This was gonna be the whole
podcast. Now it's just
the final 10%.
That really does
stick in your head, doesn't it?
Fucking earworm for the day and ass.
That is...
People are saying they love it
and also bitching and complaining about it
and I'm not fucking surprised.
We are running short of Have A Word
so if you do have problems with your family and friends,
please do.
If you just want to whinge about anyone,
if you want us to have a word with anyone,
haveawordpod at gmail.com for the final time.
That's the email.
So, Alan and Dale.
This is from Owen Lister.
I love how people get creative with our names on the
emails you know alan and dale's
can you please have a word with the silly cunts who are coming to the farmer land of dorset
and jumping off cliffs and crippling stroke killing themselves at durdle door i love it
that's an actual fucking place.
All right, we've got a lovely little beauty spot in Dorset.
It's called Dirtle Door.
And that's why no one takes us fucking seriously.
I want to get totally dick-fucked at Dirtle Door.
I lost my virginity at Dirtle Door.
To a fucking pirate.
To Edward Colston. All right.
Making the air ambulance come out three times a day
and then some stupid shit con.
Oh, my God.
They're learning your turn of phrase there, Adam.
Doing the same the very next day.
Natural selection is great,
but can you do it in your own home
to save us cleaning up your body parts
and rubbish from the beaches?
Silly twats leaving bloody tampons
and human shit on
the beach making me realize why european holiday destinations hate us brits so can you have a word
with people being fuck knuckles and going to the beach and leaving it in a state and jumping off
fucking the coast and apparently this has been happening he sent us links to
to pieces in newspapers going yep and then abel n broke his leg and then someone did it the next day
well i think people who are just leaving litter everywhere and making the beaches of states are
rats take your shit with you if you've had a packet of watsits i don't want to see your
rapper that goes home and goes in your fucking bin if you've had a packet of watsits I don't want to see your watsit wrapper that goes home and goes in your fucking bin
if you've had a can of coke take that with you
that goes in the recycling because it's metal
and we're trying to save the planet don't leave
it on the beach you're not bad
however I
refuse
to condemn people going to the beach when the government
have said it's okay they've said you can go
out they said you can be in groups
of six as long as you're two metres apart.
I think you can't judge
anyone at the beach because they didn't know the beach
was going to be full of other people. They've
gone independently. They don't know how busy
the beach is until they get there.
Yet, when you take that sky-high
picture and the beach is full, it
looks fucking horrific and there probably is
going to be a second spike. But as far as I'm
concerned, the only people accountable for this
are the government. I think people jumping off
the cliffs, you can't say oh you
shouldn't jump off the cliff during a pandemic
because the answer is you
should either jump off the cliff or you shouldn't
and
people are always
going to be doing shit like that, they do it on
holiday, they probably do this every fucking
summer and it's just highlighted now because
of what's going on. If you're at the beach and you want to
get in the water, get in the fucking water.
I'm not going to judge anyone until the government go
this is fucking bad. Get back
into lockdown. You can't judge people for
going, oh, we're allowed in group six. Fine. Let's go
to the beach in a group of six. You just can't do it.
It's not fair. Do you know, I think
you're right. Of course, people have been
cooped up
for weeks
they're young
they don't know
any old people
they're like
they don't feel like
they're at risk
and they've been told
they can't go to
fucking Malia
they can't go to Ibiza
they can't go to
Benidorm
they can't go where
they go to
to blow off steam
and if the weather's nice
and they can get to
somewhere like
Durdaldore but I think the problem I'm not even sure if to blow off steam and if the weather's nice and they can get to someone like durdle door
but i think the problem i'm not even sure if if it's the the problem is that they're there at the
beach or if it's like if you're gonna come stop being fucking bellends and i don't know if it's
just highlighted because there's more people that i'm not even sure there is more people there
i think that the problem is it's the people
that would be in Malia
or Ibiza or Benidorm.
It's young people
who are being fucking assholes.
Like, we were at
Rudyard Reservoir
in Derbyshire
about...
Say that again.
Rudyard...
Down from Ross.
It's actually...
We were down at
Rudyard by the bar.
Rudyard...

have been to rudyard reservoir ever in their fucking life but they're so starved of other
options they're like that's the best we can do their bell ends from wherever mansfield and like
fucking we'll go so i think that's the problem people in places like dirtle door or all of these
beauty spots like apparently stans like phil walker who's a comedian of ours lives where my
nana used to live stans is a lovely little beach full of nanas very sedate nice day out young
families dog walkers pensioners and all of a sudden they've got bellends leaving litter everywhere
and it's just because those people who wouldn't usually go are there going fuck up i'm usually getting rat arsed in like you know albafera or something
so i think that's part of the problem but that doesn't give you an excuse to be a cunt and leave
your mess no don't leave your mess but like otherwise as i say like people are going to
jump off shit they're going to get in the water They're going to get in the water. They're going to be fucking around.
And the government's accountable for it,
not the people
who are just following the rules.
They've now been told they're okay.
They made very deliberate changes
from stay home,
protect the NHS, save lives,
to stay alert,
control the virus.
People don't know
what they're meant to do
and it's deliberate
that they don't know
what they're meant to be doing.
I don't...
It's impossible to judge
these people for...
I don't think...
But I don't think he's whinging about them being there.
I think he's whinging about them being cunts
when they're there. I think they are accountable
to that. Maybe they're allowed to be there, but...
He is whinging about them jumping off the thing
and hurting themselves and whatever, but
I don't judge them for that either
because they do that
whether it was a pandemic or not
and once they're there they can fuck about
and do whatever they want and as long as they're paying the taxes
then they're paying for the air ambulance to come and
fucking help them and sort the leg out
and you could say well that air ambulance
could be used on someone suffering from
COVID-19 but it's pretty nasty coronavirus
that needs an air ambulance innit like those symptoms have got to come on pretty fucking quickly
to be like brian quickly get the air ambulance it's just shat along um i fucking hate litter pick
people who leave litter though it's such a what But what is it about the shutdown That has brought the worst out of some people
I swear
People are driving
Like bellends more
Like it's almost like
Well everyone's in
So I'll just fucking do what I want
I'll just
I
Like
I see people speeding
The main road
Not far from us
I mean yeah
It's a 50 mile an hour
But mate
I've seen people
Absolutely fucking hurtling down it.
Is it in their head?
They're like,
it doesn't count.
It's a shutdown.
It's all different.
I think it is.
I think it is.
I think people know that the police are very busy at the minute doing other stuff.
I think they think the roads are quieter,
so there's less danger.
And I think people are also pissed off.
And I think when you're pissed off and you're in a bad mood and you...
I think everyone at the minute feels hard done by.
And obviously, we're all equally hard done by.
But you get so wrapped up in your own stuff.
Like, when I'm pissed off in this house,
which is a three-bedroom house that me and me missus share.
There's no kids.
We've got one dog.
There's plenty of space.
And at times I feel like carbon fever
and I know she does as well.
And it's natural.
So you get a bit pissed off.
Like it's so, so absolutely right
for someone to tap me on the shoulder
at that point and go,
look at all these people
who've got it worse than you.
But you don't do you, you're just like
it's shit for me and everything's
shit for me and then if I drive to
fucking Asda when I'm in that mood
I'm sure I drive a bit more like a
knobhead than I normally do, do you know what I mean
I'm not justifying it, I'm just
I'm saying there's a reason behind it
I think people are just pissed off
they're fucking bored, their whole
way of life is just being
deleted essentially and and they're not and they're not really allowed socially allowed to
whinge like like we did it we absolutely hammered celebrities who went on crying and getting upset
about they're like oh isn't it hard it's a weird one like usually if you're down and you're under the under the weather you can rely on not
just the things you usually do you can also ring your mates and be like mate i feel really pissed
off or your missus will be like oh darling never mind we'll do this or we'll do that or ring so and
so they'll cheer you up but the whinge you can't whinge because you can't ring someone go i've got it really bad they'll be
like well like yeah like like i have like everyone's got it bad so it's it also that's a build-up of
pressure because you want to be like ah it's fucking i'm having a hard time but you can't
because a you know someone's having a worse time but b everyone's having a shitty time everyone's
suffering with it the flip side of that is I do find it quite entertaining.
I've got a couple of mates who I do really care about who are natural whingers and they're not
daft. They're not so oblivious that they know they're like, they're like, we can't really
whinge, but they try to anyway, because it's the natural state of being like, you're right.
They're like, yeah, it's not, not good. Is it? And I feel like, like one of my mates is,
hasn't even been furloughed. It's just working from home. And they're like yeah it's not not good is it and i feel like like one of my mates is hasn't even been furloughed he's just working from home and they're like they want to go i'm having a really hard time i'm like motherfucker i've lost all my work you're in no position like
bro i'm having a really hard time i bet i'm very very lucky i'm'm in a WhatsApp group with a load of other comics.
So to name a few, Kay Caird, Rob Mulholland, Dane Baptiste,
Ori Styler, Tez Ilyas, Daniel Muggleton, Eshan Akbar.
I think that's it.
That's a fucking good bill.
It's a good group.
And we've all been very actively encouraging each other to have a whinge.
So my whinging goes in there.
If I'm pissed off, I go, lads, this is doing me.
I didn't say, and they're all like, yeah,
I had something similar the other day, lads.
And it's been that WhatsApp group has been fucking pivotal in me just having an outlet for that.
It's meant to have whinged to Jade less.
It's meant to have been on this podcast.
Tens of times on the podcast, being able to beed to Jade less. It's meant to have been on this podcast tens of times on the podcast,
being able to be freer and less.
And it's been fucking valuable to just have other people
in a very similar situation.
They're all other comedians.
They've all lost a similar amount of work.
They all create a lot of their own content
and put it out and whatever.
And it's just been good to be able to go,
I'm pissed off about this
and have a group of people that understand it.
Well, yeah, I'm not trying to take away from the from anyone who's having a hard time but i just think to then take that out on your driving i just i'm not i'm not i'm not sure
it's just like a people thinking shit doesn't count at the moment and you're like if you put
it in a tree it will fucking count and the air ambulance will be saving some dickheads who's a turtle door
um all right all right lads i mean it was a a pleasure talking to you old boy and it's nice
to have you back in front of the have A Word sign. In the studio, baby.
There will be a video on YouTube.
There will be a social media clip out there.
If you listen to the podcast and you love it and you're on social media,
we're at Have A Word Pod.
And we haven't been doing the videos recently.
There's just been so much going on with the merch,
which is haveawordpod.com.
Check out our merch that's available with Adam moving around with offices,
with all of the special stuff that he's been doing, getting it out.
And frankly, it's been nice to have a break from video editing.
We're having a repush now, and that doesn't make you enjoy the podcast anymore,
but it helps us grow and develop the pod, which will just improve the pod it'll just improve the standards of the pod so if you could if you see our clips the short
clips we put out on social media give it a share not just a like give it a share and help us spread
the word that'd be great yeah if you see anything of ours let's just say this because and also
any other comedian you're a fan of let me tell you now, it's very hard for us because there's so many comedians
and there's so many non-comedians who put content out
but are trying to be funny and whatever.
If you're a fan of a comedian and you see they've put a clip out
or even if it's an image saying,
I've got this thing coming out or whatever, like it and share it.
Even if you haven't watched it, just like it and share it.
Retweet it.
If it's on Instagram, hit the little triangle thing
and put it on your story.
Facebook, share it.
Because nothing does better for the algorithms on social media
than people liking and sharing it and leaving comments as well.
Ideally, comments that have four or more words.
The algorithms like that because it's like it's creating conversation.
If you do that on
your favourite comedian's stuff,
it just means that they get more views
which means we can earn slightly more money
and then we can start creating more and more
stuff. If you like a comedian's work,
even if you don't watch it,
just share it because it helps so
fucking much. It costs you nothing and it's
very valuable. It's really valuable and it's very valuable. It's
really valuable and it costs nothing.
And it just means you're also
introducing your favourite comedians to your friends
and followers as well. Okay kids,
have you got a song? Yeah.
Weekends away have sent us
their new one. It's called Lucky One.
Adam Rowe,
