We're like, we'll go and have a night out manchester it'd be fucking great so we get there i've arranged comp tickets for carl and sean so they're in the queue to get their tickets i went downstairs into the comedy store dressing room and sat in the dressing room is ralph little now i'm fairly new to comedy at this stage and totally starstruck by like, just like, so I went, I made my excuses. I sat there for five minutes and then I went, I took a slight photo in the green room of Ralph Little and went upstairs to him and Sean, who was still in the queue to get the tickets. That's how little time I spent in the green room.
Starting point is 00:23:03 I went up and went to him, lad, guess who and he went who and i went johnny right and he went schumacher who's a lad we know and i was like no johnny so i showed him and it was roughly and his head fell off and he was like lad you've got to get him to come out with us tonight you've got to get him to come out with us and we did so later that night uh how long you've been doing standard at this point like two or three years two and a half years oh mate those moments

Starting point is 00:23:54 to Ralph Little to get a photo. Like, oh my God, I love you in this, I love you in that. I'd had a really good set and someone come over and tap Ralph Little on the shoulder. And he went like that. And she pushed him out the way to speak to me
Starting point is 00:24:06 and go, we're from Liverpool as well and we thought you were really good and he pretended to tie his shoes. He tried to style it out as he went from this to Hello shoes! Beautifully done. Now, one of the groups of people who come over to speak to us

Court date, Adam. Here he comes. I think I had Convairverse shoes on so not quite um converse shoes so this woman's like flirting with

That's what she wanted. So she took me to the toilet, put me dick in her mouth for five, ten seconds. Put me dick in her mouth. Right?
Starting point is 00:26:51 I'm stood outside with Ralph, and he's going. Yeah. Ralph Little couldn't believe what was happening. He was like, does this happen often? Ralph Little is on TV going, I'm in TV, and this is fucked up. Yeah, he was like, does this often happen? I was like, no. And her husband was like
Starting point is 00:27:05 well we don't go out often so we have an arrangement that she has fun when she goes out he was still there with us so I come back out the toilet by the way
Starting point is 00:27:14 fun I'm can you understand who I am in this situation I am how old am I there I'm 20 21 maybe
Starting point is 00:27:23 fresh meat right I'm two years into doing stand up I've just had a great gig At the biggest comedy club in the country One of my fucking idols Is at the gig And there's a woman who's like
Starting point is 00:27:35 I'm a sucky dick It would be very difficult in that situation to be like It is against the sanctity of marriage You are clearly in a relationship with this man I had no willpower. I'm pissed out my head. People have been buying me drinks all night. We're drunk.
Starting point is 00:27:49 I'd never been on a night out in Manchester before. I let it happen. Was there a bit of you like, Jesus, Manchester's fucking messed up, innit? I couldn't believe it was happening. And then, like, so she did that, and she went, so that's just a little preview for later, or something like that.
Starting point is 00:28:02 We go back to the bar, and she's like, buy me a drink. And I'm like, yeah, okay, I'll buy a drink. And I'm looking at Carl and he went, where have you just been? I went, just suck me dick. And he went, he turns around. For five to ten seconds. But Ralph Little's seen me say to him, just suck me dick.
Starting point is 00:28:15 And Ralph Little went, what? It's in the middle of revolution in Manchester and he's Ralph Little. He's trying to bring as little attention to himself as possible. He's a Manchester lad, famous as fuck, in this fucking revolution. We're not in VIP.
Starting point is 00:28:33 We're at the bar. The entrance is there. Like, everyone can see him. What? Right? So I went, just suck me dick. And then she starts trying to dance with me again.
Starting point is 00:28:43 She went, so are you going to come back to our hotel tonight? Because they were from like Sheffield or something. Yeah, yeah. Right? Oh, that makes sense. And I went, no, I can't go back to your hotel. And by this time, she's talking to me.
Starting point is 00:28:54 And he is there. The husband? No, Carl is there. Oh, right. Okay, sorry. And Ralph Little is there. They're like the fucking angel and devil on my shoulders. Because they're too interested in what's going on.
Starting point is 00:29:03 Yeah, but no one's playing the angel. Go on, lads. Two fucking devils. She went, coming back to our hotel. And I went, what? She went, yeah, it's just, we've got a hotel around the corner. So I was just wondering when do you want to come back?
Starting point is 00:29:12 And Ralph Little went, what about your husband? And she went, he can watch. Yeah. I felt more comfortable talking about gay clubs. This is so, what did you say? we didn't go back I was scared politely madam I genuinely thought they were going to try
Starting point is 00:29:35 and murder me I thought it was like one of those couples who kill and they use their little and they wait until someone's hanging around with a TV celebrity Jesus Christ not very subtle in Sheffield we'll go to Manchester so no one knows us And they use their little... And they wait till someone's hanging around with a TV celebrity. Jesus Christ. Not very subtle in Sheffield. Right, well, we'll go to Manchester so no one knows us.
Starting point is 00:29:51 I need to stop telling all these stories on this podcast. No, you don't. That story is too real. Oh, God. Yeah. We need to get Ralph Little on. Because I need him to verify that this is all real. Oh, this is too real. If you'd have made the story up, there'd have been a punchline.
Starting point is 00:30:03 I love it that you got to the end of it and went, I just said no thank you but that's how everyone knows it's true because it's a fucked up situation
Starting point is 00:30:11 but then like it's already weird but the reality is that you just went no I don't want to do that because what do you do if you're like
Starting point is 00:30:20 if you go back just imagine going back and like it's not even like the Malmaison, it's the fucking Travel Lodge. It was the Premier, didn't they call me?
Starting point is 00:30:29 Oh, it's fine then, isn't it? Me, her, him, Lenny. Lenny? What, and you're like, you get the key card and you go up the awkward elevator and you're like, right, mate? Good gig tonight. Thanks, pal.

Starting point is 00:38:34 This came in... 40. 30. 19! Related to a 50-year-old. This came in this week. It's from a guy called Ben. Hiya, lids. Just looking for a bit of advice, really.
Starting point is 00:38:46 So I'm re-sitting my A-level second year at the minute because Rona fucked me over the last year, but I want to start doing stand-up comedy. My mum won't let me drop out of sixth form to get a nine to five so that I can pursue this and she wants me to finish my A-levels and get an apprenticeship at the power station. That's old school, doesn't it?
Starting point is 00:39:06 You'll have to get a job at fucking Mill. You want to be a clown? Not in my house! You'll go and work down the power station with your great grandad and your grandad and your dad and your son! That's literally Northern life for the last 150 years.
Starting point is 00:39:22 I'm booked in for Beat the Frog on December the 28th for my first gig ever and my mum doesn't know about it and won't let won't let me go if she finds out how do i break it to her that i want to put everything i can into stand up and not go for a high paying apprenticeship so in my head i was like where's this fucking power station uh not go for a high paying apprenticeship that i don't think i'd be happy. Cheers for the help. Love the pod. Ben. So, basically, he hasn't even tried stand-up,
Starting point is 00:39:49 but he's decided he wants to do stand-up. His mum is comedy cock-blocking him. That's a bit of a power struggle. Have you got any advice, Adam? Tell your ma, it's a swivel. Right, okay. Thanks for emailing in, Ben. Like, genuinely,
Starting point is 00:40:07 your mum has got your best interests at heart, but your ma's wrong. Is that what you think? Yeah, I do. Like, if he ends up working in a power station and never tries stand-up, or doesn't for 12, 15 years, and then he's miserable in a power station at 35 or whatever,
Starting point is 00:40:27 he's going to hate his mum. And if he ends up trying it later in life and he's good at it but he never gets the breaks because it's more of a young man's game now and whatever, he'll be like, if I'd have done it then, he'll end up resenting his ma. Your mum's wrong to try and stop you doing stand-up at all. But Adam's right. She has only got your best interests at heart
Starting point is 00:40:46 because even when I was starting out in comedy, I was like, I'm going to be a comedian. And people were like, what, as a job? And when Laura started working at the place she works at last year, they were like, and what does your husband, Dan, do? She's like, he's a comedian. And they went, what, as a job? No, I meant for money.
Starting point is 00:41:03 People don't know it's a it's a job but she's gone too hard line by going you can't do it you can't do that and you're not going down there that's where she's fucked up however the way i read this is you haven't even tried stand up yet if you can keep it a secret from your mum like you can go to gigs fucking hell like lads have been getting away with all sorts of shit for fucking years yeah i'm sure you can go to gigs fucking hell like lads have been getting away with all sorts of shit for fucking years yeah i'm sure you can get yourself to a comedy club a few times yeah cheese on your mark play yeah get sneaky get a burner phone just just try and play the game with both don't don't drop out your a levels like you can do both mate it like you should be quitting jobs and a levels when you've
Starting point is 00:41:48 done a few gigs and you're like holy fuck i can do this yeah you are right like there's a thing there's an over romanticized thing about like in comedy you just got to go for it fuck everything else but you're like mate if you if you can get more than one gig a month for the first few months you're doing really well you can't tell me in that time you can't more than one gig a month for the first few months, you're doing really well. You can't tell me in that time you can't finish an A-level. No, you should. Play the game a little bit. Be smart.
Starting point is 00:42:11 Have a backup is always a good option. However, I'm the wrong person to really give the right advice on this because I feel like I wasted my time with my A-levels. And A-levels are very stressful. I'm not trying to give someone badlevels. And A-levels are very stressful. I'm not trying to give someone bad advice here. They're very, very, very stressful. And I resent the school system and how drilled it, especially if you're clever, like me and Carl were at school,
Starting point is 00:42:38 we were in the same classes, and it was drilled into us. Your only option is university. And to get to university, you've got to absolutely smash these GCSEs so that we'll let you do A-levels. And you've got to absolutely smash these A-levels. That's all that matters. And if this is not good, your life is over. And the pressure that they put on teenagers, 15, 16, 17, 18-year-olds
Starting point is 00:43:00 at GCSE and A-level is counterproductive, disgusting. And it's led by a lie. Like, a lot of my mates who went to university have now got less happy lives and less paid jobs than people who just decided to go another way. So I think if he's a clever lad and he's got an opportunity to finish these A-levels, especially if you've already sat two years of them, my advice personally would be, persevere. Get them in the bag so you've got them there. I did that. I've got A-levels
Starting point is 00:43:32 there, so if I ever want to fuck stand up off and go back to university and do a maths degree, I can do that and you should give yourself that option. However, I still, like... It's not one or the other. Your advice is like, what should I do? And you might be shit.
Starting point is 00:43:48 It's not one or the other. But that's what is the unromantic thing to say about this situation. You love stand-up. You might be the next Adam Rowe in five, ten years. There's not many fucking Adam Rowe's. Like, there aren't many comics. No, but it's true, isn't it? As much as it fucking hurts me to say no,
Starting point is 00:44:06 but I'm, it's like, give it a go. Like with anything, like you can do both. You're not going to start comedy. Like people have got this weird perception, even mates of ours who were like,
Starting point is 00:44:18 I need to turn pro. Cause then I'll get more gigs. You're like, you won't. Nope. That's not how it works. It's not like the comedy industry goes. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:44:24 we would book so-and-so, but it's a full-time job like it doesn't work like that you get the gigs that you're good enough to get there are thousands of young guys not even young like at beat the frog it's people from all walks of life there's some older people trying to stand up there's a lot of competition for spots you can do both of these things we're not saying you can do that do the power station not even just the a levels he could do the power station you could be an apprentice in a power station and still gig i yeah ps you're gonna hate the nine to five yeah like it's just another job but you're gonna need money yeah because the gigs that you're gonna be doing we don't know where you're based to say what he's based no like they're not you're not
Starting point is 00:45:03 just somewhere northern yeah you can get a job at the power station it's not richmond upon thames it's a power station yeah like you're not every gig is going to be 10 minutes away when you start stand up you're going to be sometimes you're gonna have to get a train or be in the car for two and a half three hours and you're not even getting your petrol money yeah and also have a job get yourself a car your mom will be like you're doing so well you're really even getting your petrol money. Yeah, and also, have a job, get yourself a car. Your mum will be like, you're doing so well, you're really being... That's amazing that you've funded a car. Fund the car for the gigs, because Christ, that makes life easy. It really does.
Starting point is 00:45:33 I didn't drive for like eight years of stand-up. Oy! It was very, very difficult. Did you ever have to get to Nottingham? Yeah, I hate getting to Nottingham. It's really difficult to get to Nottingham. I know. I feel like Nottingham's haunting you worse than the fucking
Starting point is 00:45:45 50 year old you fingered but you need I thought you might miss that I didn't finger that I know I know I'm fucking about I know
Starting point is 00:45:52 but you're gonna need to fund being a comedian at first you don't get paid and unless you're fucking brilliant it could be 3, 4, 5 years
Starting point is 00:46:01 before you get even your expenses it's a very competitive market so just be smart be smart like I love it when people love comedy this much it could be 3, 4, 5 years before you get even your expenses, it's a very competitive market, you need to be on the side be smart, like I love it when people love comedy this much but there is a way of doing it where you get to do it
Starting point is 00:46:13 and also just cover some bases so that if you meet a girl or you meet someone you like, you can take them out because you've got money, you might even start getting paid work from stand up while you're still working and then you've got two fucking wages like it can be quite sweet if you play it right and do you know what you can do as well and this will your mum won't thank me for saying this but you can prioritize stand-up while still having the power plant job the paid
Starting point is 00:46:39 apprenticeship if you start getting more and more gigs what i did and the the bars i worked in won't thank me for saying this was if i because the power plants i imagine is mainly day work i don't know but i'm assuming so my part-time job was bar work i worked in bars and that massively clashed with stand-up so what i started doing was if i got offered a gig on a night i had a skit uh a shift scheduled i just took the gig and turned up late i went sorry i had a gig and i knew that these bars needed staff and i was a fucking good member of staff so they were like before it's getting a bit much this ad you can't just turn up late all the time and i was like well i can because if you sack me i'll just take this fucking great cv i've
Starting point is 00:47:19 got and go and get a job in the bar next door i'll be fine This is just a fun stand-up. You can sort of take the piss a bit with the power plant job. Like, start, like, edge it out. And if they fuck you off, hope you're in a position where you've got enough from stand-up. As you're earning money from stand-up, give less and less of a shit about the power plant job.
Starting point is 00:47:37 Slowly fuck it off and forge your career if you're good at it. But there's every chance that you think you're funny and you're not. Or it might take a while for you to choose. It's so easy to be like, it's all or nothing. You've got to follow your dreams. You also need money for the pub.
Starting point is 00:47:55 You also need to live somewhere and have some fucking money for clothes.

Starting point is 00:49:46 Jamon! I'd go for La Cucaracha. La Cucaracha. When he says every time it gets hard, is it just it's hard one? Or when your dick's twitching, is it constantly making the noise again? No, no, it's just from, you know, just as you reach 100% erection, you get like the, you know on the adverts there's the... But sometimes it goes down a little bit, doesn't it?
Starting point is 00:50:07 But it's only gone down to like 95 and then it's back up to 100. Is it making another noise again there? Why are you making out that your dick's like a hip-hop hydraulic car? It is. It is? What? Can't you maintain an erection of it? No, you just...
Starting point is 00:50:20 I can, yeah. You love saying that out loud. But it just drops, like it goes up and down, doesn't it? As you're getting a bit of foreplay. When you're riding around south central LA. Whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop. Guess who's back? La, la, la, la, la.
Starting point is 00:50:34 It's the motherfucking... You've got to knock a little switch here. Roadie! You know if someone's feeling all over you, you get really hard and then she'll touch another bit and it goes, what, again? Adam, are you just making up dick stories? No. Do you really get... Do you get an erection and then it gets...
Starting point is 00:50:49 But how bad is your ADD that your dick gets bored of being erect? It's like, oh, fucking hell, we're not doing it. No, it's just like, you know, it's not like 100, 98, 100, 98, 100, 98, depending on where she's touching. If it's in her vagina, then yeah, it's good to go for a bit. In a mouth. It doesn't get bored in there. No, it likes it in there.
Starting point is 00:51:10 In a married woman from Sheffield's mouth, five to ten seconds. It's a Roslisberger. Like a Roslisberger. In the microwave. I'd have the you know the Intel Pro inside that's on every advert for computers
Starting point is 00:51:28 that'd be amazing yeah just because she knows she's got a fucking processor if your if your missus is like touching you all over
Starting point is 00:51:37 are you just one setting and it doesn't move at all yeah salad and salad like a wrap because I'm not 40 i can maintain an erection yeah you think you can i'm 40 in march so yeah i'm not 40 either fucking old so your dick is as
Starting point is 00:51:56 hard as it gets before she's even touched it no if she's if she's doing the yeah then yeah he's ready to go. Right. And it doesn't change at all when she starts touching him. Why would it? Because it should. What? What do you mean? An erection's an erection. Why is there seven stages of an erection?
Starting point is 00:52:15 Shame, guilt, fucking... Mine's like a Pokemon. It evolves as the levels go up. That's mad. So you're not fully turned on. So you're not fully turned on. I'm just a charm alien. That's mad.
Starting point is 00:52:25 Switches her. So it's like chubby. Like semi. No. It's like mostly there, but then there's an extra level where it's like, what? Oh, okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:34 It's like a power up. Yeah. It's not like as hard as it gets until it needs to be, is it? That's mad though. No. All right, so your dick has a standby mode. Yeah, it does
Starting point is 00:52:45 it honestly great to know yeah yeah can we have a question that's not about his knob yeah i've got a question i think i literally visualize his dick twice a week and it's it's a lot have you ever had the death row question no okay well maybe have you had the mail question i think so i'm not sure, though. What's the question? Well, I was thinking of a question. If you found out the other person had been arrested and put on death row, what would you think they'd done? If I found out he'd been put on death row?
Starting point is 00:53:13 So you don't know what he's done, but Dan's on death row, he's been convicted, but you don't know what would you think it was for? It's more difficult my way. You've killed people. And I'd be like, oh, he hasn't. It'd be like, oh, inevitable. It'd be like oh he hasn't it'd be like oh inevitable be like it was going to happen for me like you'd be like i can't believe it i'd be like i really wanted to do the pod for longer till he's till he went on a killing spree sorry so
Starting point is 00:53:36 the question is so if you find out adam's been arrested yeah convicted he's fucked but you didn't know what it was what would you think he'd done murder yeah murder i yeah well it'd have to be murder wouldn't you not get death row for fucking robbing a fucking car let's not say death row he's been arrested and he's been sent down what's he what's he done what do you think he's done hit and run in a volvo i'd be the first person to ever do a hit and run in a volvo we fucking, we, grandad's slow. Nice and slow. Don't scratch the body work.
Starting point is 00:54:09 If I hit someone, I'd be like, for fuck's sake, paint work. Well, let me just flip the question a bit then, because it's hard for me to answer this, because I haven't really got an answer. So what could you see yourself getting sent down for? Like, what would make you snap? If the... Because I could kill people.
Starting point is 00:54:25 I absolutely accept that. If the Amazon stroke Hermes stroke DPD driver parks his fucking van on my grass verge in the middle of winter and fucks up
Starting point is 00:54:38 the front of my grass one more time, I think I might go down for taking a parcel and shoving it right up his fucking arse. Leave my grass alone. That winds me up. I genuinely feel these weird things like...
Starting point is 00:54:54 You are 104 years old. I know. I don't know when it happened, but if Laura's like, I've slept with someone, I've taken a lover, I'd be like, you've got needs, love.
Starting point is 00:55:01 But if the DPD driver fucks up my lawn cha upset me um just a woman's you know i'd be a bit disappointed right now you know because she's now post baby you had the baby she's nearly four months pregnant i would say it's a little bit selfish She was like Dan I know I'm really uncomfortable But this is Devante Do you reckon If she fucked
Starting point is 00:55:33 Chester Do you reckon if she fucked someone now I'd be a bit annoyed Do you reckon it's possible For them to turn that into his baby Yeah okay and we're back to... I like that. You know when you're like, well, I was good at school.
Starting point is 00:55:48 Not in biology. No, but like, you had the new baby. Happy, healthy. You said, okay. Bit down the line, yeah. The baby's one. Everything's all right. All right, cool.
Starting point is 00:56:00 She's like, look, Dan, I'm sorry. It's just, I love you. I want to keep the house. I want to raise these kids together. I don't want them to come up from a broken home. However, I've met this guy and I really just want to ride him like a fucking rodeo. Yeah, as long as he's not the DPD driver, I might be into it. Yeah, but you can't fuck anyone.
Starting point is 00:56:19 It's just there. Oh, how does that work? Because she's just had your child. She's entitled. Yeah, and she's just had a dick. She's going to have all the children she wants if she's taking the dick. I'm trying to get a girlfriend. Mr. Dan, Mr. Dan.
Starting point is 00:56:34 Is that it, fella? Mr. Dan, Mr. Dan, I come to fuck Laura. Mr. Dan, I'm going to be your girlfriend now. You really, really... I also know how to restore That's what he's going down Human trafficking Of Thai cleaners

I could see Laura giving you a pass. And I've got an estate. I've got the room and the boot, haven't I? Yeah, but what I mean is, like, I think... Every Volvo you see, human trafficker. But I wouldn't dismiss that

Starting point is 00:58:49 yeah when you two kick off and start talking you've told me I'm quite squeamish though you have told me before how you plan to murder someone
Starting point is 00:58:58 because you've watched murder documentaries no I did criminology why haven't we got the camera on call for this fucking hell
Starting point is 00:59:04 I studied criminology you told me that this is the camera on call for this? Fucking hell. I studied criminology. You told me that what you... This is a direct quote. He went, if you want to murder someone and get away with it, you just pick a random person, murder them and never go back. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:13 Just pick someone who you can't be tied to. You just go and kill them. And then fuck off. No, you don't. So what you're saying is to get away with murder, you've just got to have no motive or reason. The only reason you kill is to have the sensation
Starting point is 00:59:27 of murdering someone yeah and you hit them with a piece of frozen meat Carl you're a reasonably intelligent person but you're sounding like a Pierre Norbert on that one
Starting point is 00:59:38 no you hit them with a piece of frozen meat over the head kill them defrost them like a lamb just take them to the fucking nearest farm feed all the pigs eat lamb. Cook it. Just take it to the fucking nearest farm. Feed all the pigs.

I had tits as well, to be fair.
Starting point is 01:16:10 Tits at three. Did anyone else famous go to your school? A few rugby players, because it was St. Helens, and then... Who else was there? There was a lad who played for Wigan called Tim Chow, and then, weirdly enough, I was in New York, in Tiffany's, I think it was. Did you have breakfast?
Starting point is 01:16:27 That's just what I do. Jesus Christ. Call me. Nothing but tits. So I got in the lift, and then there's another couple in it, and the guy who was working the lift he went

Starting point is 01:17:14 and then like but the fact that like you and him were in school at one point together and then you've both gone off on your lives like two atoms
Starting point is 01:17:22 just buzzing around going fucking everywhere and then a lift in New York it's just weird that you've both gone off on your lives, like two atoms just buzzing around, going fucking everywhere. And then, poof, a lift in New York. It's just weird that you've met again. Yeah. Like, when I bump into someone I haven't seen for ages, like, I went to Ikea a couple of months ago. A lad I used to play footy with was in the parking spot in front of me.
Starting point is 01:17:35 I was like, how? The statistical improbability of this happening. Where was the Ikea? Warrington? Yeah. Tiffany's was in New York.

Starting point is 01:19:05 Yes, thank you. She worked it and I knew her and she knew me. And I would go in and be served by her and we would both pretend that we didn't know each other. It's just weird, isn't it? Because it was easier. It's just like, yeah, let's just pretend I don't know your name, you don't know mine.
Starting point is 01:19:22 And then we ended up going on a few dates. Never went anywhere. But no anger? No, like, you know, it's don't know your name, you don't know mine.

Starting point is 01:34:52 Mike Tyson's knocked himself out, good have you had a go with them? no, but just everywhere the 40 scooters, yeah, they look good them scooters you can get in Liverpool now, they're like a quid for like three minutes or something you can rent them Liverpool now, they're like a quid for like three minutes or something. You can rent them.
Starting point is 01:35:06 Yeah, you just turn it on, off you go, and you can just leave it wherever you're bored. There you go, fuck off. And then you go on the app and you can find where people have left them and you just go and pick it up and you have a little go. My mate had to do that with bikes in Salford. He was the guy that collected them. They're just all in rivers, all burnt. Broken.
Starting point is 01:35:23 Which is effectively fair. The first time you see a modern futuristic looking bike just propped up in Manchester City Centre you're like I give that
Starting point is 01:35:31 three to four hours before it's been stripped for parts like where should we put all these expensive pieces of equipment you know
Starting point is 01:35:39 they'll just be left and then people can take them where should we put them in all the poor cities in the north great idea who had that some cunt in london yeah yeah they'll just leave them and no one will steal them and cycle to salford um what are we talking about cars cars segways so we're coming towards these these lights and someone had pressed the button and the lights went amber and the woman who was fucking inspecting me
Starting point is 01:36:05 examining me she get your eyes on the road love what was it she fucking slammed on she stopped us
Starting point is 01:36:18 about a hundred yards away from the lights and I went what are you doing and she went you went mate
Starting point is 01:36:24 can I just say I haven't been involved in a lot of driving tests but if you turn sideways and go what are you doing I reckon
Starting point is 01:36:31 you're not passing that test I said that to her I know that's what I'm saying if you ever have to ask an instructor like the test lady what the fuck
Starting point is 01:36:38 are you doing don't you dare get that pen out that's not even a fucking minor someone in our school failed because when he was reversing, he said to the test,
Starting point is 01:36:47 the lady, am I good on your side? Sorry, love. Sit back. I can't see anything for your tits. And behind the fucking passenger seat. What are you doing later, B? The fucking early development.
Starting point is 01:37:02 When she slammed on, like she had fucked up and she knew it as well. I could fucking tell by her eyes. She slammed development. When she slammed on, it was like, she had fucked up and she knew it as well. I could fucking tell by her eyes. She slammed on. Ow. I went, ow,
Starting point is 01:37:10 for fuck's sake. I went, what are you, I went, what are you doing? And she went, you weren't stopping. And I went,
Starting point is 01:37:16 what do you mean I weren't stopping? There's still a hundred yards to go. If you can stop the car here, I can definitely stop the car before the lights. And she went, no, I'm afraid you weren't stopping in time. And I went, stop the car before the lights. And she went, no, I'm afraid you weren't stopping in time.
Starting point is 01:37:25 And I went, have I fucking failed? And she went, I'm afraid I can't tell you that on a main road. I went, right, okay. She went, take the next right. But you might have an idea. Because she just screamed at me, have I fucking failed? You fucking rat.
Starting point is 01:37:43 So this has gone down the stream she told me to take the next round and then pull over and she went yeah so to answer your question I'm afraid you have failed today so you've got two options now you can either get out of the car here and we can call your instructor to come and collect us or we can continue the test
Starting point is 01:38:00 and you can see how you get on overall and I went can't we just drive back to the test centre and she went no I'm afraid you're not insured to do that so we either carry on the test and you can see how you get on overall and i went can't we just drive back to the test center and she went no i'm afraid you're not insured to do that so we either carry on the test or we get your instructor to come now i knew in the end that you don't have to take the directions they give you and they can't you know if she goes at the end of the road turn left they can't even fail you if you turn right you just go i got confused so she just kept giving me instructions and i just drove back to the test center so she was going the road turn left and i was like oh i've turned right haven't
Starting point is 01:38:30 i all the way back to the test center and she asked me to reverse park in one of the bays and i just went straight in and she went i asked you to reverse park and i said i haven't been listening to you for 25 minutes and john our instructor come over and he went have you got on and i went she's fucking failed me because she shit herself yeah amazing what's the next one what t-shirt were you wearing tits inspector tits examiner we're both in the industry love did you Did you pass first time? No, I failed my first test. I failed too, yeah. I was on a roundabout and I think I stalled and she grabbed the handbrake because the lorry behind beeped.
Starting point is 01:39:13 So I failed. And then she went, do you want to drive back to the test centre? I was like, I don't know. I don't really want to because she was getting a free lift at that point. I hated her. So I was like, I don't know. I don't really want to, because she was getting a free lift at that point. Hated her. So I was like, yeah, just drove. But I was about three minutes away from passing. But admittedly, I didn't know how to set off on a slope.
Starting point is 01:39:34 It's for the best. Fuck, if you're just one hill and you've got a bus. I love how those two different ways of dealing with the same thing. Do you want to drive back like, Oh, all right, yeah. Just drove back. What did you do, Adam? Have I fucking failed here?
Starting point is 01:39:50 Fucking not bad. I could get a gun in two hours. Fucking Norwegian Pete will get a fucking phone call from me, lad. Amazing. Literally, that's how everyone fails. I'm just like, I'm gutted. Adam's like, fuck off. I just like I'm gutted Adam like fuck
Starting point is 01:40:06 I drove to Ikea 12 miles away but I saw fucking I saw Denny from fucking Sixport right can I tell you
Starting point is 01:40:17 why you failed yeah because you got a Calax and that's not allowed on a test you got a multi-pack of dime bars. I wonder to what degree you can take the piss.
Starting point is 01:40:28 You know what, because that is a rule. Once you've failed... No, I mean... Stop doing jumps over like... If they tell you to turn left and you turn right, that's not even a minor, because you just go, oh, I just went the wrong way. That's not even a minor.
Starting point is 01:40:41 So could you, like, go to a Mackey's drive-thru? Hang on. You're saying yeah yeah and that gains authority to the statement are you sure that in an exam if they go
Starting point is 01:40:51 can you take the next left and you take the second right they can't be like are you a fucking idiot they can't say that
Starting point is 01:40:57 but they can't write it down you can take it safely I think you can take your time as well can't you you can take 50 minutes to do your manoeuvre yeah
Starting point is 01:41:03 if they get you to like parallel park early on in the test't you? You can take 50 minutes to do your manoeuvre. Yeah, if they get you to, like, Parallel Park early on in the test, and the test can only last 50 minutes, you can take 48 minutes to Parallel Park, and they can't mark you down for it. So if they early on tell you to Parallel Park, if you just take nearly an hour to do it, they're then going to take you back to the test centre.
Starting point is 01:41:22 Oh, my God. There's loopholes. You just have to look for them. But can you go to a Mackey's drive-thru? I know you can't, like, eat while you're driving. You can once you've passed. Imagine that. Listen, I don't know how this test is going, love,
Starting point is 01:41:35 but do you want a McFlurry? I've got a Froob in me pocket, if you don't mind. Connectors fucking Bluetooth, start putting Jari on my shit. Just pull up into bay one you're just praying there aren't you if you've took
Starting point is 01:41:50 a wrong turn into the drive through well we might as well get something order like a fucking a filly of fish that you know they take fucking
Starting point is 01:41:57 20 minutes to sort out get told to park up after your test still waiting for a fish burger clever I think you'd fail do you reckon
Starting point is 01:42:06 yeah why no one likes fillet of fish why what what because there's only
Starting point is 01:42:10 a finite number of things they can fail you on what are you being failed at I think getting fillet of fish going the drive-thru
Starting point is 01:42:16 is definitely one of them maybe they might make you retake it at least let's go again yeah at least let's go again yeah Lauren Patterson I remembered her
Starting point is 01:42:33 from I did the Chortle Student Comedy Award I did my heat in Leeds she was there and I thought she was good yeah thought that's right
Starting point is 01:42:41 who runs it was a yeah just another whoever he is Steve Bennett Steve Bennett Steve Bennett well both of us are working
Starting point is 01:42:48 in live comedy still so we don't have the the autonomy of a like fucking like I thought it was a knobhead and I literally went
Starting point is 01:42:56 I think he's great just the judge and the way they do it you know they made their mind up before oh yeah yeah according to
Starting point is 01:43:03 former winner Jamali Maddox so he said that and then went on to up before oh yeah yeah according to former winner Jamali Maddox so what he said that and then went on to win it yeah yeah yeah yeah
Starting point is 01:43:10 this competition's bullshit and I dedicate it they're fucking rigged these games I just want to say thank you Grandad I just come back from my heat all depressed because yeah
Starting point is 01:43:22 I'd done shit and I couldn't say him. And then Jamali was off on his way to, like, the Manchester one. Yeah, they know he's going to win it before it even starts. And then he went on to win it. That looks like such a fucking dick-swinging move, doesn't it? Yeah, they already know who's going to win, mate. Fucking dick-swinging.
Starting point is 01:43:43 Bullshit, these. I've won five of them. I've never done well in any comedy competition. Ever. I think I was too competitive. Just booing the act. Yeah, but weren't you doing all of yours? That's comedy.
Starting point is 01:43:58 Fucking winner. Just a winner t-shirt. Bonus jokes. I've got the body of a god. Shame it's fucking Buddha lad I drove here on my fucking
Starting point is 01:44:09 driving test I've won that I've won this who wants a filler fish I've got five took them fucking ages
Starting point is 01:44:22 was in bay two for 28 minutes oh my god fucking competitions are bullshit how this is what I know of you you were probably
Starting point is 01:44:34 doing competitions on like your second fourth and fifth gig yeah I'm in the semi-finals how many gigs you done five no I just even like a year in
Starting point is 01:44:44 I didn't know of a lot of the competitions until it was too late to enter them it's like the big one you can do when you're new is so you think you're funny i did that yeah yeah i didn't know about that competition existent until i was past the eligibility because you have to be less than a year in to do it yeah um and i was like two and a half three years in before someone was like you don't say you think you're funny like no i didn't know it was a thing laughing horse didn't get out the heat i did the london bbc london heats of the bbc comedy award and i said to i think paul carenza or gary delaney who are in the semis with me like how many gigs you've done and i'd honestly done 12 yeah he was like um done about 160 170 i was like okay
Starting point is 01:45:21 i should have fucking cool my boosters a little bit. But then if you go too far, you end up doing what you did and you're not allowed, are you? You're not eligible. No, I just, yeah, I did that with a few of them, and the few that I did enter, I just, yeah, I never really got very far. I don't think I was what the industry wanted. Do you know what I mean? White.
Starting point is 01:45:43 Did you do all of them? No, I did So You Think You're Funny. I got to the finals of that and then didn't place in the top three. But Luca Caparni won it. Me neither. Shout out Luca, he's on next week. Not if immigration is about that
Starting point is 01:46:09 do you gig for Paul Haslam Haslam yeah yeah you're making him sound I think he's just called Paul Haslam Haslam
Starting point is 01:46:17 have you heard of Haslam yeah yeah yeah he's a nutter yeah he is a nutter so he he's sound hi Paul looking forward to being
Starting point is 01:46:24 in Bury again he ran a he ran the laughing horse he is a nutter. He's sound. Hi, Paul. Looking forward to being in Bury again. He ran the Laughing Horse comedian of the year heat that I did. And to this day, I remember, you know, Kiri Pritchard-McLean, who is a very good comedian. And she was in my heat. And she's so sort of sure of herself.
Starting point is 01:46:41 Kiri always has been very confident, knows what she wants, very driven. Knows the game. Knows the game inside out. confident knows what she wants very driven knows the game knows the game inside out she actually admitted it that she learnt the game as she was starting out she was like
Starting point is 01:46:50 well why wouldn't you it's the industry you work in and I'm there like talking to her I've been doing it 14 years like yeah that's a good idea where are you gigging this weekend
Starting point is 01:46:58 erm Wigan I just I remember him going because he went round the room going right what's your name so I'm like Adam Rowe he's like couldn't she went Kiri Pritchard and he went round the room going right what's your name so I'm like Adam Rowe he's like couldn't
Starting point is 01:47:05 she went Kiri Pritchard and he went no that'll do and she went I'm having my fucking name and he went what was the last one mate
Starting point is 01:47:12 if any anecdote sums up Kiri it's that one nah that's enough name she's literally what at the time like 25 let's cut someone off actually
Starting point is 01:47:20 do you know Paul Haslam not Kiri for fuck's sake no absolutely not do you know I want to live today do you know Paul Haslam not Kiri for fuck's sake no absolutely not do you know I want to live today do you know Paul Haslam's like sort of
Starting point is 01:47:28 I think it's like his buddy or they run a double his name is Mick Taylor you know that other Manchester comedy promoter do you know of him no he's an absolute gobshite
Starting point is 01:47:36 right like look how silent he's gone everyone hates him he's a proper noncey creepy sex pest
Starting point is 01:47:45 twat right everyone thinks he's a prick how's purple lackey got away with it purple lackey's
Starting point is 01:47:55 part of the citizenship test and he rang me once Mick Taylor to offer me a paid gig this is the
Starting point is 01:48:02 god's honest truth he rang me out of the blue number come up and he went, all right, it's Mick Taylor. And I went, all right, oh yeah. Because I'd applied for like two of his gigs like three years before.
Starting point is 01:48:10 This was about four years ago, maybe five. So I was playing the clubs by the stage, like Middle Spot and whatever. He went there, got a gig for you, paid. It's in, is it Ramsbottom where he runs one? Yeah. It's in Ramsbottom, which is like the other side of Manchester.
Starting point is 01:48:22 It's in Ramsbottom. The home of British comedy. It was paid five5 via Bax. So he was paying me a fiver two weeks after the gig. It's paid! It won't even cover the fucking bus. Did you do it?
Starting point is 01:48:38 I did not do it, no. Call it a tenner. I was so pretentious with my gigs. Like, I wouldn't do a bad gig. Or try not to. Like, I cherry-picked. That's why I didn't work out with stand-up. What happened, Steve?
Starting point is 01:48:51 Because you did all the comps. And then what? Did you just not get to paid level? Or did you start doing paid work? Started doing stuff, yeah. Did you just go, I just don't want to do it? Yeah, I did jonglers. I was starting doing that, yeah.
Starting point is 01:49:03 You mentioned a place, the Doncaster Dome. Yeah, the Donny Dome. Did you do Jonglers? Yeah. Fucking hell. Like, were they paying you? Yeah. That is...
Starting point is 01:49:14 How long did you do stand-up for? I think this is why you quit then, isn't it? See, to be doing... I did Jonglers, the worst comedy. To be doing the Doncaster Dome for junglers three years in is too soon. Yeah. Like, they sunk junglers, didn't they? Not that you ain't good, but for them to be putting acts with less than three years experience
Starting point is 01:49:34 into the Donny fucking Dome, they were a pile of shite by the end, junglers. Yeah, they were very commercial, sort of. Let's get everyone in at four o'clock. Show starts at quarter past nine. It's four pound for 12 beers. And you get a complimentary swimming ticket because there's no fucking swimming. It was fucking great.
Starting point is 01:49:54 What did you just do? Do a bit of it and go, I can't, I just don't. Did you not enjoy it? Or, I mean, I know Doncaster Dome for junglers probably wasn't the dream gig. No, I had some really good ones.
Starting point is 01:50:04 I was doing the Comedy Store in London, like the 10 minute minute spot there and then i had oh what's his name who runs it don don yeah so i did a gig i thought i was one of my best and he takes me into his office and then just goes bam ba bam ba bam what i need to work on i was like oh god and then kevin bridges came in because uh because he was doing something for this morning the next day and I just got to sit around the table with all the comedians I didn't say a word it was like me
Starting point is 01:50:31 over by the bar yeah yeah my dad was just sat at the bar waiting for us to go not now father I'm with some real men that's such a new young comedian thing, isn't it?
Starting point is 01:50:46 Kevin Bridges, one of the, probably, arguably the biggest star in UK comedy. I think he's the best in the UK, personally.
Starting point is 01:50:53 Don Ward, the father, one of the forefathers of British club comedy, he's there, he's just told you everything you've done wrong, here's what you need to fix,
Starting point is 01:51:00 if you want me to pay you some money. You sat there with Circus Stalwart, who are like, here's what you need to do, kid, if you want to get into this game do this do this do this let's have a beer do you want a beer you're like dad can i have a beer yeah yeah bridges ward legends and your dad go come on stevie i want to beat the traffic i can't believe you didn't invite your
Starting point is 01:51:20 dad over for a drink but they literally said that at the end they went no he's like your dad and i was like yeah he's my driver see i can't take my dad to meet comedians because he feels the need my dad is uh has got that problem that some audience members have where because he is surrounded by a group of comedians he feels the need to be funny oh yeah so i. So I'd never met Kevin Bridges, right? I met him once actually at the store years ago when I was doing like a five or a ten minute set. And then, that was 18 months ago, he was doing The Empire in Liverpool and Paul McCaffrey, good friend of ours
Starting point is 01:51:58 who will eventually be on this podcast, he was opening for him. And McCaffrey knew that I idolised Bridges and I'd text Paul saying I was going to the show and afterwards he goes we're going for a drink we're just going to go back
Starting point is 01:52:10 to his hotel bar do you want to come and meet us for a drink and I was like I'm with my dad and me and Carl and who else was with us Alex and Steve
Starting point is 01:52:18 were there my mates they came after work yeah they were working in town and you were like do you want to come for a drink with Kevin Bridges and we went to his hotel bar and we were there
Starting point is 01:52:25 until about 6 o'clock in the morning just drinking he was doing magic tricks yeah he got a pack of cards like he picked so the bar shut a four
Starting point is 01:52:33 but he was like yeah I'll just give you a bit of money just keep bringing us some stuff over just look after us and they were like yeah sound
Starting point is 01:52:38 it was fucking great but my dad was such a ya da he just wouldn't like hey Kev hey listen got this story about this. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:52:50 Yeah, also, he's proud of you and excited. Oh, you're like, dad, just play it fucking cool.
Starting point is 01:52:56 Well, Kevin Bridges, of all the sort of big, famous superstar acts I've met, he's the most normal. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:53:03 He was just a normal Glaswegian we arranged to give him a fussy for the next morning didn't we we gave him a fucking tog out while we were down he called me shagga
Starting point is 01:53:12 and it was the best moment to me to laugh you know what he meant when he beat a shagga I was like I fucking love a Glaswegian fucking shagga baby
Starting point is 01:53:20 shagga shagga the best yeah I can't take me there because he wouldn't stay by the bar he'd have been straight over to Don Ward hey you wanna get him on Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon Chargon

Starting point is 02:12:07 and he... I can't remember who it was, but he was just slagging, like, all the acts off when they were on. I thought when I come back, he was dead nice to me, but I knew what he was probably saying. They were just talking about all these comedy clubs closing. I was like, oh, I'm going to be shit here
Starting point is 02:12:24 if that's the case Sean Collins I bet you it was Sean Collins but does he sit down yes it was Sean Collins he's a prick and I hate him

Starting point is 02:22:57 away from Swedish House Mafia because I needed a wee and I was just saying excuse me excuse me just getting through this girl just wouldn't move so me just getting through this girl just
Starting point is 02:23:05 wouldn't move so I just had to blast through what? what? I just had to barge around the way
Starting point is 02:23:11 where everyone's on pills and having a nice time listening to dance music you're like move youtuber
Starting point is 02:23:16 I just go in excuse me I was just right in front of her saying excuse me and she's just looking at me
Starting point is 02:23:22 like that so you bum rushed her scouse fridge scouse fridge smeg I stood right in front of her saying, excuse me, and she was just looking at me like that. So you bum-rushed her? Did you fuck her up away? Scouse fridge. Smeg. Smeg, yeah.
Starting point is 02:23:31 She smelt like it. Out the way, love. But yeah, she was sturdy. Robust. Get bollard, yeah. I don't think there's a word a woman would less rather be called than sturdy. Sturdy bed.
Starting point is 02:23:45 I sent it off. I think fridge might be up there. Freezing on top, cool down the bottom. It's time to have a word with Adam and Dan. Tell us all the problems you have with your friends. This is going to. The whole podcast. Now it's just a final 10%. I don't know why you dance.
Starting point is 02:24:11 Frigid. Oh. You know what? It's going to be a real smooth edit there because we've got a great producer, but you fucked that up, didn't you? I can't believe you talked about it. You're fucking lit.
Starting point is 02:24:21 I can't believe I talked about what? When you kicked the wire out of the machine and we nearly lost the whole episode. Can't believe I talked about it, you fucking liar. I can't believe I talked about what? When you kicked the wire out of the machine and we nearly lost the whole episode? I can't believe I mentioned it. Fucking, I'm so sorry for mentioning it. Doing the worst fucking dance I've ever done in my life. Sorry, dancing the club. Strictly are shitting themselves.
Starting point is 02:24:41 That's what you're drowning. Imposing. Okay. Hello, Abdul, David and Carla. shit in themselves that's what you're drowning in pussy erm ok hello Abdul David and Carla have a word with my best mate Michael last year he took his bed of three years
Starting point is 02:24:53 to New York and proposed he asked me to be best man and we started planning the stag do yep about two weeks ago he rings me and says he's not sure
Starting point is 02:25:00 if he's made the right choice but the wedding date has been set oh gee yeah deposits paid bride's family pay for it all as they are minted i told him he needs to speak to his bear before it goes any further this week the bride's family paid another five grand towards the wedding and he still hasn't said anything um the next day my mate called called me and then called it off eventually
Starting point is 02:25:25 he's now moved into my spare room because they've split up he's been like this for a while I still think he's a bit of a cunt because he could have called it off before the money got spent because it's non-refundable so basically he should have broke up with his missus he never and it's cost her family
Starting point is 02:25:42 thousands of pounds I thought you were going to say that he'd just still not done it and he'd married her. I mean, he should have done it. And he paid another five Gs and he still didn't do it. The thing is, though, if he's not going to see her anymore, why has he asked about how much money her family has spent? Doesn't matter, does it?
Starting point is 02:25:57 They're gone. Fuck them. Like, bye Bye Felicia I'm off, I'm bouncing If it's his decision Maybe he should be a bit more considerate I mean Maybe yeah
Starting point is 02:26:18 I'm joking but I totally empathise with this guy Because I totally understand How you can get yourself in a situation where things have gone too far and you should have fucking pulled out a while back. Shoulda, woulda, coulda. Yeah. I've still got a phone contract from when I was like 17
Starting point is 02:26:34 that I'm still paying because I can't be arsed phoning and having that conversation. Not the same, though. It is. No, not the same. Ringing your missus and her mum and her dad and sitting them down and breaking everyone's heart is not the same as ringing fucking three. I'm still with three, actually. Vodafone. same ringing your missus and a mom and a dad and sitting them down and breaking everyone's heart
Starting point is 02:26:45 is not the same as ringing three i'm so with free actually vodafone oh sorry i'm sorry um yeah it's easy to be after the fact you know you were a company you should have saved the dad five but at least he got there at least it wasn't like yeah he doesn't love her and they've been married for two years like that's the worst isn't it like the money is one thing but money will be at least you've not got a stinking divorce my least favorite thing is watching couples exist and you can tell they fucking hate each other you'd literally give someone five grand just to have that relationship done i hate watching couples that are unhappy. So at least he did it. It's easy though.
Starting point is 02:27:26 I want to empathise with the guy because I get it. It's easier to not have that conversation. It's a very common thing to go, what will make me happier in the next three minutes? Not having the conversation. It's hard to go, in three years I'm going to be fucking miserable so I need to call this now. Hey, which by the way, he did.
Starting point is 02:27:46 The guy did do that tricky conversation. Eventually. I mean, yeah. I think, you know, it's very hard to do what he's done and he's done it now. What do you think, Steven? He's in the middle of November and he's still being empathetic. He hasn't had a wank for like
Starting point is 02:28:04 16 days like, no, I just didn't get on. Yeah, I get what he did. I think it'd be very tough to go to your girlfriend. Did he propose? Yeah. Yeah, he proposed in New York. Proposed in New York as well. That's a big move that you've got to be sure.
Starting point is 02:28:20 Like proposing in fucking Asda or whatever is not as big of a deal as going to New York. No, it is more of a big deal it's more of a story in it it really is more of a story like oh my god he proposed in new york like every other dickhead what in the lifting tiffany's but but in asda that story will do the fucking rounds you know between friends family lad bible people will find out won't they? Put a ring in with the fucking breaded chicken. No, I don't want that bag, babe.
Starting point is 02:28:50 Get me a deeper one. No, no, no, the bigger bag of dippers. Keep going. That's an onion ring. How did you propose? How did I propose? We lived in Leeds at the time. Why is he nervous? I heard like a nervous laugh there. I just laughed.
Starting point is 02:29:06 She got fucking pregnant. I had pum pum juice everywhere. I thought I'm not going to do no better. Her dad was paying 5 Gs and I've never turned down a fucking golden monkey. What's five grand in the, like, you know when they talk about monkeys and...

Starting point is 02:29:32 Yeah. Yeah. He spent a fucking... He spent a fucking orangutan. Yeah. I think though... Orangutan's ten grand. I think monkey's meant to be,
Starting point is 02:29:40 so you don't have to work it out. You're not meant to give them a maths problem, are you? Six and a half monkeys. Yeah. When it starts becoming pointless because you're not meant to give them a maths problem are you six and a half monkeys yeah when it starts becoming pointless because you're using more syllables

We've just stopped that 40 seconds already. Oh, my God. I've never wanted to talk about Sean Collins more than just then. Anyway, Sean Collins. How did you propose? We just went to a restaurant with me, Laura,
Starting point is 02:30:34 and her sister and her brother-in-law, and halfway through the meal, I got down on one knee, and she was out. You were tying your shoelace, and she was like, are you proposing? You were like, sure. Fuck it. She was out of options, and romance in your 30s.
Starting point is 02:30:48 Tick tock, let's make children. Celica thought I was proposing to her, you know, in Iceland. Oh. So we were in the Blue Lagoon in Iceland. It was snowing. It was on her birthday. Floating around with a cocktail. It was like fucking picture perfect.
Starting point is 02:31:03 She just turned to me slowly and why are you still stood up dickhead and she went are you gonna propose because it was perfect and i went no because i'd say no because we were like we're only kids or we're about 24 because we're not ready for marriage you can't be arsed with that we're gonna get married soon but she's like i'd say no i was like we've been in the blue lagoon for like 6 hours the ring would have
Starting point is 02:31:28 to be up my arse because I've got swimming shorts on you could have it on one of your toes it could have been on your dick Seneca
Starting point is 02:31:36 you're going to have to calm me down before you get this ring love I have been I have been rock solid for 5 and a half hours
Starting point is 02:31:43 if you want to get married you're going to have to stop looking good in that bikini kid either you think she's got massive fingers I have been rock solid for five and a half hours. If you want to get married, you're going to have to stop looking good in that bikini kit. Either you think she's got massive fingers or you think he's got a tiny dick. It's one of the two. How long have you been with your missus? Two and a bit years.
Starting point is 02:31:58 Any plans? No. Well, she said she wouldn't. She'd say no if I proposed. Jesus Christ, guys. You've had a really bad run of luck here with women just turning around to you. Stephen!
Starting point is 02:32:08 I know we're about to sit down in the restaurant, but no! I'll have a garlic bread, please. Wow. She does think of garlic. Sorry. That's a genuine problem in our relationship. She thinks of garlic?
Starting point is 02:32:19 Yeah. Does she like garlic, or is this just a natural? She likes garlic. A family... I think her dad's Israeli, so maybe there's different flavours over there. I'm so fucking white, aren't I?
Starting point is 02:32:30 They have different flavours. I think Jewish people smell of garlic. Am I right? Is that right? Or was that vampires? I can't remember. They wave it to ward off demons. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:32:41 Yeah. Maybe she's vegetarian, actually. They like garlic as well so yeah she heavy breathing anyway so she stinks of garlic
Starting point is 02:32:52 in the morning you need a wank squanto thinking about garlic it's getting you frisky oh god pizza hut go on
Starting point is 02:32:59 yeah so she stinks of garlic and I tell her I think I just say your breath smells like garlic and she hits me for it and I think there's nothing nothing wrong with that is that if you tell someone they've got bad breath you can't really do anything else if i have bad breath i want to know yeah it is a it is a
Starting point is 02:33:14 difficult one isn't it i remember being on a flight in in in italy with my dad when we went to watch the italian grand prix yeah and we'd been we got up really early because they're like the bus the bus to the track picked you up in the middle of this little italian it was so early and he had the worst dad breath in italy ever smell yeah and he just oh the cappuccinos for breakfast and it was just oh it was so bad but i i couldn't have gone like dad you sinks sort your life out like yeah it's very awkward but it's an awkward conversation to have it to you dad, you fucking sink. Sort your life out. It's very awkward. But it's an awkward conversation to have, isn't it?
Starting point is 02:33:47 I can't say it to you, Dad. No, I just ducked out. Well, Matty said, would you rather never be able to use toothpaste or toilet paper? That's a good question. From Matthew Matty. You've got to wipe your arse, haven't you?

Starting point is 02:34:27 They've got sounds on them. They've, they're automatic. Ah, why? Can you imagine if you got to pre-recording and you just had a child's voice going, why, Kyle? Why? Yeah, because other people in cubicles
