And actually, I haven't told you guys this
Starting point is 00:01:27 yet but um he's so excited about the podcast that he sent through an email the other day rocky sent an email he did with some thoughts for us to um muse over what's his email address is it rocky flintstone or rocky at flintstone.com As if I'll ever give you that information, James.

Starting point is 00:01:58 as Rocky with three kisses, whether it's about the podcast or not, which is lovely. As it should be. I kind of feel like I've lost my dad in a way. I suddenly have this pornographic author as a father. I don't think it's when he started signing off as Rock River. I think it's when he put pen to paper for Belinda Blink.
Starting point is 00:02:16 So he sent me this email. Hi, Jamie. Polite. To the point. Are we analysing the email? Yeah. Well, I'm surprised he didn't say, Oh, hi, Jamie. Like all these To the point.

Starting point is 00:03:21 What is a rocky thong? Is that what Rocky wears? Oh, my God. Or is it the one from the maze? Soiled, stained one. I hope they're not one and the same. Have you seen your dad in a thong? Does your dad wear a thong, Jamie? No, I don't know. Everyone deserves to
Starting point is 00:03:36 know, does your dad wear a thong? We won't ask again. You demand to know the facts, Alice, and I can't answer you. Transparency is very important during this podcast.
