Do you want to see what the world is really like?
Yes.
Four things is deliciously funny and spectacularly entertaining.
A woman plotting her course to free them.
Pat in love for her.
It's non-stop bonkers brilliance.
I love that.
Poor things.
It's like theaters for December 15th.
Greetings, listener, dear, I'm Tom.
I'm Ben.
And I am Matthew and welcome to another exciting episode
of the podcast that we like to call
Papi's flat share Beef Brothers Cold Cuts.
It's every way to start your day
listening to our podcast.
It's not the right jingle, it's not right.
That's what I'm talking about.
I think Patreon only episodes, that's not even the jingle
for our Patreon only episodes, but it's a good,
it's an enticement for people.
If you want to know what that's all about,
get yourself over to patreon.com forward slash
Pappy's Flatshare and join us today.
There's a whole new world of Pappy's waiting
for you on the Patreon.
I know it sounds like the kind of thing we'd say,
but every time we do a live recording London,
and we have a drink afterwards, always listen us come up and chat about being patrons
and how it's their favourite part, it's the stuff that goes on the patron.
And that sounds like something I'd say, but it's happened like three or four times now
recently, where if you're in, it's great fun.
So why don't you give it a go just for a month thought to?
See how you get on. In fact, you can do it a go just for a month thought to see how you see how you get on
In fact, you can do it. You can do a seven day free trial
So give it give it a try for give it a try for seven days and then make a decision after that
We and then change your name and do it again for another seven days
Yeah, I think we need an email you could do that as many times as you like just start setting up new emails
They're free. I'm like email so free last time I'm bloody checked
For the moment, isn't it?
Yeah, come on.
It's probably called X-Mails now.
Yeah.
Anyway, check out the Patreon.
It's a real treat and we really enjoy doing it.
Speaking of a real treat, we have the fantastic Eric Rushden,
one of my absolute faves of the new crop
of comedians coming through these days. These bloody days. The new nuke, we're the new crop. Weaves of the new crop of comedians coming through these days.
These bloody days.
The new nuke. We're the new crop.
We're still the new crop.
They're the new new crop.
Or can you believe it?
He's even newer than us.
What?
Okay.
A fellow member of the new crop.
A fellow member of the new crop.
He did start in the last two decades,
but closer towards the end of that period, right?
Right. Okay, okay, okay.
He's our generation.
We're at different ends of the new crop generation, I guess.
Let's just say that and draw a line underneath it.
Yeah, let's say no more about it.
So yeah, to be for other cold cuts,
and we did ask for people to,
because the hotline's got another hotline episode,
we've got some hotline.
What?
We got a WhatsApp message coming up.
Look forward to that. We've got a WhatsApp message coming up, look forward to that,
we've got a Skype message coming up.
Look forward to that.
So we've still got it, we're still a hip.
So we've also had a message from Bennett Kavanaugh.
Now there is no say Bennett Kavanaugh rather than
just doing front-name zone news
because he's done a real favor here
and you may want to give this fellow a follow
because he's a comedian, musician and writer
and he writes, Hi, Pappies, long time listener and big fan of the show. You guys mentioned on the last
slam down episode that you wanted a jingle for the hotline so I thought I'd write one for you.
No. No. No type of thing you're after. Can change the lyrics up if you need, slash include
the 10 hour mix to match the quickfire jingle. Hope you, fan sure, and his Irish cars
and the rule doing well, best wishes, Bennett Kavanaugh. So here we go.
Let's have a listen to our brand new Bennett-based jingle. It's given me a very strong radio, one in the 90s kind of vibes, but I'm enjoying the
hell out of that.
It's giving me pure enjoyment.
Can we go again?
Yeah, let's hear it again.
Oh, two, oh, eight, one, two, three, two, seven, two, one, two, three, two, seven, two,
one, two, oh, eight, one, two, three, two, seven, two, one, two, three, two,
one, two, three, two, seven, two, one, two, three, two, seven, two, one, two,
all right, let's see if this works.
Clarky, go, sing it right now, see if the number's stuck. Go.
Oh, two, oh, wait, one, two, three, three, two, seven, two, one, two, five.
There's no one to five on the end, Clarky.
It's just what's your beef?
What's your beef?
What's your beef?
Yeah.
That is the confusing bit that what's your beef,
if you're not listening carefully, can sound like one, two, five.
What's your beef?
Everything up to the one, two, five, you were banged on, man. What's the real, yeah were here, you were here. Everything up to the one two five,
you were banged on, mate.
Was that really?
Yeah, you were, you were at that point.
You kind of started seeing the matrix
and started saying numbers instead of words
or seeing, you started seeing numbers instead of colors.
So thank you, Bennett, Bennett Cafe,
where you can get him at Instagram,
TikTok and Twitter at Bennett Cav.
We'll finish with that.
We'll have a few bit more of the end.
Well, no, you know what?
You know what?
We know another one coming up.
What?
We've got another.
So I tell you what, let's enjoy Eric.
He's absolutely brilliant.
Solving some beefs that you've said to him.
Oh, by the way, as well, if you want to send in a beef,

Oh, two, oh, eight, one, two, three, three, two, seven, two, what's your beat?
There we go. Enjoy the show.
Well, if you've got a problem, I'm calling a problem,
if you've got a problem call it a beat, if you've got a beat,
maybe we can help you be from the zoning at your beat.
Yes.
Is it bad to admit, I'm not really familiar.
No, I know.
So I don't know how the format,
I mean, I've got what you've given me an email,
but I don't know the format.
So I'm like, you're all the host, right?
I'm the guest, that's right.
Yeah, that's right.
None of you are also gadgets.
We're not your guests.
I imagine if you came in and you were the host.
Yeah, yeah, I will do it that way if you want, I'm fine.
I will tell you what, let's kick things off.
We will take a back seat for this bit and you just do it.
You are going to be in the train.
Welcome to Papi's podcast, the podcast about flatmates.
Today I'm joined by Tom Perrywick, Matthew Crosby and Ben Clark.
How are you doing guys? Well, pretty good Eric.
How are you?
It's like to be on the show.
Yeah, good.
Just looking forward to getting through all the regular features we do that I know about.
And you're particular faves that lead to that, Eric?
Um, um,
idiot of the week.
I like that one you do.
Yeah, it's always me.
Flat mate from hell.
Love that one. I can't get me me. Flatmate from hell, love that one.
I'm not expecting that from hell. Unexpected item in the laundry basket, that's always a good
one. Is this better than anything we've ever done?
Can we have feet? Because they're all ready.
We give you a job, Eric. I'd love to. I really need, does it pay?
I really need money.
Sorry, I meant internship.
Sorry.
Right, okay.
internship.
Is this a lucrative podcast?
It's not a bit of a scratch podcast.
Well, I know, I've kind of, like, it didn't mean to be in sort of,
I just, you know, don't listen to loads of things,
but what I told you to be honest.
I think if you need to ask, you probably know the answer to that question.
No, but I told someone else I was doing it,
and they were like, oh, that's a big podcast.
Wow.
So, who was that person?
Because we'd like to book him.
This is James Cook.
Do you know James Cook?
He's comedian.
Oh, he's a good guy.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He said this was a big podcast.
So, cheers, James.
Yeah, I'm not going to be getting a term of duration.
Yeah.
Probably meant long.
That's a long one, mate.
90 minutes long, is that what this is?
Oh, and go in duration in terms of number of episodes.
Yeah, really.
But, really?
Can I pitch TV series to you, Eric?
Yeah, is this one of the features? This is an exquisite item in the laundry basket. I don't know why we get gave it that title
doesn't make any sense. I don't know if I'm reading the structure of the show. I know
I've come on and I just do all in. I don't know. Okay. What's the show? We're
blindfold you. Yeah. You we dress you
Surely we dress in first right or TV show
No, you know, because he doesn't know what he's wearing that's that's right I'm I'm I naked when you blindfold me already
You can have undergarments on okay, that's I'm we blocked fine with that so I fold you we dress you
Yeah, then the TV show opens with you being positioned
in front of a door.
The door opens, you walk out onto a TV set
and you just have to host whatever's there in front of you.
You know what I did with this podcast.
One week it could be a chat show,
one week it could be MasterChef Final.
And it's their Eric, Eric Rushden hosts Mr Eric.
Suddenly you're in top gear.
I'm all for it. Do you have any sway in the industry to make this happen?
Sadly lacking in sway.
It's the one thing we don't have. We've got a podcast. Zero sway.
I think that's a good idea. I think it depends. I'm quite unknown. I think
Surely the seller that show is the is the person
Jeremy
I'll explain this you down myself. No, no, listen a little advice from show business. You don't talk yourself out of a project
Right, okay, if someone's pitching a vehicle for you, don't say no it'd be very with Bradley Woolf
I'm not a backer. It's a lot of work because's going to be adaptable. He's a good presenter.
Bradley, it'd be like a duck to walk with Bradley. People wouldn't tell that it was a format.
Oh, do you want it to be someone? Did you pitch it to me because you thought I'd be bad at it
and that's where the comedy would be? It would be a challenge. We're not saying bad. We're saying
it would be a challenge. It would be more challenge to you that it would be to Bradley and that's
where the entertainment comes from. That's where the conflict comes from. Is this a collective pitch from you, or did you know about this idea beforehand?
This is the reason we got you here.
OK.
Look, there is no podcast.
It's a surprise pitch meeting.
We're about to be joined by the head of Channel 4 comedy, so fix up.
Look Mark, here we go.
Yeah.
I can tell you now they will say what they always say, which is, I'm sorry, it's a great
idea, but we do have no money
Sabbatru. Should we talk about because you're you're up at the fringe at the moment
You're at the edge. Yeah, so have you got a flat-shear situation at the fringe that's different to your one?
Yeah, yeah, I'm with James Cook who I mentioned
Big family. I'm with a couple of people Jay Handley, you know, him, he looks like Jesus.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He's got COVID at the moment actually,
so that's a really, obviously,
feel bad for him, but then there's a selfish part
that's like, are we all gonna COVID and miss our shows
and stuff like that?
Seems to be fine so far.
You're living in a COVID house at the moment.
Yeah.
Now, I'm worried about COVID.
What, you, what, like, because obviously back in the day
that used to be quite commonplace. Are you doing
anything extra? Are you doing extra washing, not giving to the communal areas?
Well, we don't go in the communal areas when he's in them, like he'll tell us when he's
going into the kitchen. I don't really, I forgot how Covid works, because he was like, do
you want me to wipe down the surfaces? That's not a thing, is it?
Wasn't that just like, it used to be?
Wasn't it?
But like, isn't it airborne?
I don't know.
Yeah, it doesn't last on surfaces
as long as we thought it'd do.
And when it first started, it was like,
you've got to, you know, you're getting it from a handrail
or from a...
Yeah, so I don't think there's much you can do.
Someone washed all the towels, which was all right,
but it was a bit annoying, because then there was no towels. Someone just took it upon themselves, but it's a disease house, let Someone washed all the towels, which was alright, but it was a bit annoying because then there was no towels. Someone just took it upon themselves to like, it's
a disease house, let's wash all the towels.
So I got wet hands, so that's going to spread disease more, isn't it?
If it spreads in water droplets, shaking off your hands when they're wet is about the
worst thing you can do. Exactly, so that, you know, I don't want to cause beef,
they might even hear me now.
You saying the best thing you could do
is not wash your hands whilst you sing happy birthday twice.
Yeah, that's right.
It's just the singing that's the most important bit.
I think actually singing happy birthday is no good either
because it's your, you know, there's a lot of,
there's a lot of plosives in that, isn't it, birthday? Pepepepepepepepepepeuh, puuh, puuh, but you know, it's got a lot of that kind of thing in it.
You know, it's spreading germs all over the place.
I think, sing it in your head and don't wash your hands.
Yeah, stay out of any room with taps in it.
Yeah, it's gonna be quite difficult,
but I do like the bathroom and the kitchen.
Also, President Abundra, by the way,
to give you the forecast list.
Oh, of course.
And a guy called Obey.
How's the president?
He's all right.
I don't know.
I'm just telling his anecdotes now, but he lost his luggage on a suitcase or whatever on the train up.
He wears a uniform, the President Abundra uniform.
So I don't know what happened.
I don't think I'm seeing him like loads, because I'm know out all the time. Not part in working on the craft. Yeah of course.
But yeah, I don't think he had to go and like go to random shops and try and assemble
another uniform. Because he can't presumably gig in Sibby's, can he? He can't be
gigging. He can't rock up in shorts in a t-shirt and go by the way.
Well, it after rewrite the show, President, stay off.
Yeah.
He's probably holding that back for like, you know, a fourth or fifth out.
When you've got to reinvent the format, you know?
Yeah, absolutely.
Absolutely.
And how's your fringe going? Is it going all right?
Yeah, it's going good, I think.
I mean, today was very good, actually.
But yesterday was a bit there.
I'm not in a very good room, but I probably shouldn't say that on a podcast.
You know, I'm grateful to the free for engines to fight out.
I guess you know the fringe rooms and all that.
I mean, Cabaret Volta, which is a good venue, but I'm in a room called the Long Room.
Right.
And there's what noise bleed and stuff like that. I mean, I mean, Cabaret Voltae, which is a good venue, but I'm in a room called the long room. Right.
And there's quite, you know, there's like noise bleed and stuff like that.
Just fine, but I thought I had a really good show today, and I think it was, but basically someone was at,
some industry, was at the back.
Apparently they just could barely hear it.
I was like, I was a bit frustrated, I was like, oh, what can I do about that?
Also, why don't you just move, why don't you just move through the forward?
What are you doing?
Can you do it?
Can you move around a bit in the room?
Can you say, look, I've been told
that the sound's not great.
So I'm going to try and walk,
or I'm going to sort of walk the circumference of the room
as I'm doing the show.
And you're not going to hear everything
but you're going to hear more of the room.
Right.
Pace the long room.
I could do.
Unless that's the title of the show, it's going to feel weird.
No, it's not cool.
I also, one of the problems is, the sound system,
I'm not a tech, and I didn't hire a tech,
I'm cheap.
The sound system is, because it's a club,
I think it gets reset to what's best for a club
every night.
Yeah, it's so nice.
So then I don't really know how to set it back,
and it's all like bassy and shit.
What's frustrating is the people who work in
the industry have such a lack of imagination that they're probably report back and go,
oh no that's the comedian who meets quite quiet. Yeah, he's not a player. He's the comedian
that always has music playing in the background. Yeah, if you're booking you just you probably
won't be able to hear him and you'll be hung over and you know tired
He's always really far away
He's always right at the end of a room
There's really frustrating to be honest, but I don't know it's about the general public in it probably
Yeah, but can you build a career off the general public?
Well, we're it's our year you can't
We're living proof. And you have, you probably have big fans that listen to this,
right? Oh, yeah, yeah, a couple of big fans. Yeah,
nice one. Got a, got a, got a few big fans. Yeah. You
know, we're, we're very, we're very grateful to the people
who listen to this podcast. I hope by I'm enjoying the show,
by the way, and so I don't want to come across this,
and it's fun and it's good.
It's a very good show.
I saw it at the Vault Festival,
so months and months ago.
I've really enjoyed it.
Even then, even in the early stages of gaming.
Even at the vaults.
Yeah, yeah.
There's a lot of bits in there,
but it's quite different from there and yeah,
because that was like January or something, wasn't it?
It was a while ago, yeah.
The good thing about doing the vaults first of all,
is it does lower expectations of what a venue should be.
So by the time you get to a debris,
you feel like you're playing the fucking castle.
The only ways up from the vaults is that-
You know what, while that's, I'm like,
I said I wouldn't want to say that,
that vault venue would be a dream, if I had that.
Yeah, I mean, probably. It's in London, it's in London. No vault venue would be a dream, if I had that. Yeah, I mean, crucially, it's in London.
It's in London.
No, it would be a...
It wouldn't really come up on nearby now on the app.
You're not gonna get a lot of football going past that, baby.
If you do need to get to Ivo Grame in the courtyard
for half-seven, that is gonna be a big surprise.
I'd say, I'd like you to venue...
You might be stretching it just a bit.
You're going to be really checking your watch around the sort of three, four minute mark,
thinking, am I going to make this train?
And are you shaking the bucket at the end of the show?
Shake? What's that?
What's that? What's that?
There's that like, are you trying to sound cool?
I don't know.
Do you mean do I have a pocket?
There's a ring that's going round that you do a little dance at the end of your show.
You really shake your bucket.
They give you an old bucket, mate.
Yeah, I have a, but it's quite, one thing I quite like about, which I think is new or
in the new in the last couple of years, the laughing horse, you can do pre-sales as well as
buckets, so you get, you know, pre-sales as well as buckets.
So you get, you know, I know that some people are coming already,
but yeah, do the bucket try to be brave enough
to ask people for £10.
That's something going on for, I just say it's worth £10.
Everyone says £5, but like, okay,
I want someone to be really ashamed if they put £5 in.
Yeah, love that.
Yeah, especially if they're putting £5 in
and there's a group of them.
Yeah, yeah. Sometimes it would just be like the loudest person in the group will go there you go that's
a five of that's for us and then they'll walk out like yeah, we'll go and you're like come on guys
I think the thing is you wouldn't think twice if a show was at the Pleasants and it costed a tenor
you wouldn't think what seems like a rock off you'd be like yeah exactly you wouldn't still a hamburger
I haven't used a bar cross me used to barricade the door and not let people through unless they coughed up.
It was quite- it made for quite an uncomfortable end to the show, but we, you know, money's money.
Yeah, sure. We moved to the start.
That's what we thought.
It was just-
Yeah, the whole show was the bucket speed.
Barricade the door and Charles had to get in and then-
And then they just fuck off, actually.
Fucking get on that side.
That's great. Can make go have a gray in?
Be from the starting, I can be!
Oh, cuss!
Should we solve some beefs?
Let's do it.
Let's solve some beefs.
Er, Tom, I believe you've got a beef from Jordan.
Great.
I think that'll be fine.
OK, a coach beef from Jordan and he's going to touch via WhatsApp.
And it says here, send us a message today, 02081-2332-72.
Absolutely right. I've not done that before and that felt quite good actually.
You can send us a WhatsApp message just like our friend Jordan did.
It's the future guys.
You're really tripped off the tongue actually,
no, two, oh eight, one, two, three, two, seven, two.
Yeah, we still haven't quite worked out
what's the best way of saying the phone number,
but those are all the right numbers in the right order.
Feels huge that we're on WhatsApp now, though.
It's pretty big to me.
We're on the app actually, Jordan.
We're on the app.
Jordan's responded very well here.
He knows that he's messaging us at a good time in our career. Yeah
Yeah, definitely right. I have a beef on the packed four-hour coach from Sheffield to London
I was sat next to a man who repeatedly and
Let's clarify this it was around 15 or 16 times
Started to drift into sleep verify this, it was around 15 or 16 times.
Started to drift into sleep, but very slowly, leaning over onto me, but it did this so slowly,
that it took about 60 seconds from upright to basically heading my lap.
Meaning I had to wake him every 60 seconds to start the whole process again.
Oh, it felt like a very short groundhog day.
Bracket's groundhog minute.
That's Jordan. That's not me.
Sure, but I'm going to beat me to it because I was about to wait in with that.
If you hadn't read it, yeah, I mean, it was not there.
Then I was like, he's on it.
Absolutely boils my potatoes, love the podlads,
and then two, like, smiley faces with red cheeks.
Yeah, because it's WhatsApp.
Jordan from West London, and then a smiley face
with red cheeks.
Double A. Yeah.
Classic.
Classic message there for Jordan.
Say what?
It's a great phrase.
I like the emojis are now in play. Now that we're on WhatsApp. Yeah. Classic message there for Jordan. It's a great phrase.
I like the emojis are now in play.
No, that we're on WhatsApp.
Yeah, it seems quite chipper about the whole situation actually.
Ending it with two smiley faces and then a third smiley face after his name.
I wonder if he actually needs this beef solved.
For someone so upbeat,
I'm surprised that he's got a problem with someone falling asleep on him.
Well, I imagine he's off the coach now, so it's probably just really good point.
It's a good point, yeah.
I mean, it is a beef he needed us to solve, you know, a couple of weeks ago, probably.
Yeah, what is the solution to that?
It's over.
Is that normally how it works?
That's just a bad thing that happened.
That's not a problem.
You know what?
Increasingly, we are getting people saying, what should I have done in a situation?
And you know what? It's not a bad problem because, you? Increasingly, we are getting people saying, what should I have done in this situation? And you know what?
It's not a bad problem because, you know, it's obviously Jordan has already had the situation.
The chances of lightning striking twice for Jordan are pretty slim, but there must be
other listeners.
I mean, Eric, are you exactly right?
When you travel up and down the country doing your fantastic stand-up comedy, do you ever
take the coach as a coach, everyone?
Yeah, coach is quite a regular thing.
I've only just learned how to drive a student at a car. Oh my God, you got straight to a coach everyone. Yeah coach is quite a regular thing. I've only just learnt how to drive a student ever car. Oh my god you got straight to a coach. Make a little
bit of money on the journey home. No it's ambitious, that's ambitious stuff.
So there's a passing. Really difficult reverse in parking in a coach.
Absolutely. No, under you're in Edinburgh there's loads of coach parking.
Every street is coach parking in Edinburgh.
It's a great place to take your coach.
You know, like how Stephen Fry used to drive
very London in a black cab so he could go where everyone did not get recognised.
That's what Eric does in Edinburgh.
That's a good idea.
It does mean you have to ferry quite a lot of pensioners to the tattoo every night.
But apart from that.
Good side of transport. So, yeah, well yeah well as a passenger I should say correctly I've been on the coach.
It's my least favourite like I always get the train if I can.
I kind of think maybe that situation is particularly annoying but it's kind of part for the course
a little bit that someone's going to sit next to you and probably fall asleep.
The all the way on your lap's bad. What I do is, I don't know what I could say,
I just try and look mental so no one sits by me
and I'll get my laps up out and all my equipment
and I know it's bad to do that,
but I've done it before where it's an almost
a capacity coach and I'm like the only one
where no one's that by me.
I think you've just got to be selfish
and you've got to really,
that's how you get ahead in this life.
I think the problem is, it doesn't start with sitting next to the guy, the problem before that,
the problem is his mentality getting onto the coach.
You've got to not let, no, it's got to be almost impossible for someone to sit by you.
You've got to be the mental one.
You've got to kind of adopt a persona, coach bastard.
Yeah, if you've got on that coach correctly,, if you got on that coach correctly,
yeah.
If you got on that coach correctly,
the other person should be writing into the podcast.
That's how you...
Okay, okay.
So before you go on, you get yourself into a mindset,
you become this other person.
Look, mental, like weird eyes, like really open eyes
and just starting around and just like,
definitely have the seat covered.
When someone says there's anyone sitting there, don't respond the first two times.
Wow.
What's going on?
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's bridal.
The other way you can go is be very enthusiastic about someone sitting next to you.
And that would instantly scare them away as well.
Well, my suggestion was going to be the first time his head comes onto your shoulder.
If you go, I don't think he's going back or he stays there. I believe it's onto his lap and I reckon
if you stroke his hair gently, he's upright and he's maybe upright in two ways.
He's upright and he's maybe upright in two ways. I think that's the way to do it as well.
If his head's in your lap, you stroke his hair and I think either he's going to fall
into a deep slumber, you're going to have a nice warm thing on your lap.
Who doesn't like having a nice warm thing on your lap?
You can eat your dinner off him.
Whatever you like.
It's like the lap dogs.
The reason lap dogs were invented I was going to say, but bread
was to keep posh people's laps warm when they were in their horses and carriages.
I've never got this.
I can't remember a time where I've specifically thought all my laps cold.
Hands, feet, like...
I thought you were asking for a show of hands,
then whether you agreed or not.
LAUGHTER
And I thought we gave the correct response.
LAUGHTER
Like a cold lap?
I don't know, is it because it's cold?
It's just because it feels nice.
I don't know.
I don't know if it's because it's cold.
Are you, as a as a season ticket holder,
in the top right corner of the Stankullistan
at the Mollanyu,
where the wind would absolutely whip around the corner
on the autumn and winter days,
are yearned for a lap dog.
Cause it's chiefly a lap that was getting it.
Really?
Just give yourself, just get yourself a bovral
and just slowly pour it into your lap.
I think I'm with Eric on this though,
it's just there because it's nice to have a warm lap
as opposed to your lap is so cold,
you need to stick another living thing
onto your lap to warm it up.
Because otherwise, they say you don't know,
you lose 80% of your body heat out of your head.
Now, top your head.
Oh, sorry.
They're not head dogs, are they?
You need a head dog.
You know, that was getting a little
sensation and popping it on you.
They call me the head dog dogs.
Ask her, Eric, ask her around on the streets of Edinburgh,
who the head dog is.
I don't want to bring it up.
I'll point you in our way, my boy.
I thought you'd been dara stiff, I brought it up.
Sorry.
Can I say I read the whole of that email thinking it was shoulder
and laughter. You read the whole of that email thinking it was shoulder and
it does fundamentally change things.
I think that on the show it's just fine.
It's not great but it's fine.
You could happily have someone say you chose a bit.
This is on a plane flying to the Bahamas, right?
I have no idea.
It's my blind spot isn't it really?
I don't really know what they mean.
You've never learnt any words have you? That's the problem with you.
Is there a word where what was going on here was an approach for intimacy?
The old, the old,
I'm saying, I'm saying no.
And also, don't say the old as if it's a move
that loads of people do,
well they stick their head in someone's lap.
It's absolutely not.
It's, well, it's illegal.
If you don't get deliberately, it's illegal.
But it's the 60 seconds bit that makes it legal, isn't it?
Cause there's just enough time for them to get it.
No.
If you do something slowly enough, it can't be illegal.
The defence restaurant.
He robbed a bank over the course of a week.
And I got away with it.
I don't think that's true, Tom, any bit of it.
All right.
Would it be different on a train?
Yeah, I think it would actually.
I think it'd be much less acceptable on a train. I think I'm coached. That's just what happens
It's a lawless place
People fall asleep next to it. Yeah mega. Yeah, exactly train. You've got a lot of I don't know
I just feel like I don't know why it's good. You could go opposite. Can you you can move about on a train? Yeah?
I think I could go opposite, couldn't you? You can move about on a train, yeah.
I guess you've got someone facing you, haven't you?
Yeah.
You've got someone facing you in most seats,
or in lots of seats.
So you could have somebody else,
you could be making eye contact,
and it's a bit more exposed.
If it's not on a table,
you've got three potential laps to go for.
Yeah.
The way Eric's described pairing himself
to go on a megabuss is the way innocent men
prepare themselves for
going into prison in the movies and I feel like there's like a slightly similar
monster of like you've got to fucking become this bastard you got to get on
they got a challenge for hardest guy on the coach
you're hitting him on the first day make sure they know who's boss
sit spread she's the biggest guy on the couch. As soon as you get up.
Proper kind of like, it's like going into prison.
It's like a, it's a, it's a lawless environment.
Those coaches.
Yeah, absolutely.
All bets are off.
When I was with my gap year, I would, I traveled around the states on the Greyhound bus,
right?
And basically they leave from like the worst places in any town and go to the worst place in the next town.
Are they called mega buses in America?
What? Do you know what?
Do you know what?
Like the mega bus.
Oh I get you.
I get you.
We're going to get emails about that because that's really good stuff.
Whenever Clarky does something really good and we don't acknowledge it, we
get a lot of emails about it. I know, that was good. I didn't know if that was a thing
that people were already saying or if that was a Clarky original, but Clarky, I tell you
what, let's do it, let's do all that again. Let's do it. Let's, let's, let's, let's,
because I, I, I wasn't on my game there, you were. I tell you what, let's, let's, let's
go for the top. Start with the bucket speech and then... Yes.
We think this podcast is worth 10 pounds.
Absolutely.
Do you know the Patreon please, Patreon.com, full of like, bbq, but when I was there,
I was in a place called Stockton in California, I think that's where it was.
And the only, we wanted to get out and see whatever the next place was.
And the only coach that left was leaving it like six in the only, we wanted to get out and see whatever the next place was, and the only coach
that left was leaving it like six in the morning, because we had to get up really, really early,
leave our motel six and wait for this coach.
And we waited and there was a guy there called Kenny and he was eating candid corn and sort
of like throwing them in the air and catching them in his mouth, he was talking very animatedly.
And he said, I'm meeting my friend off this coach, the one you're getting on, my friend's
getting off. He's just got out of prison and he's going to come and live with me now.
He gets out of prison in prison for 10 years and he's getting out of prison. We were like,
oh no, I don't want to be there for this. And he said, I said, what did he do just because
you know, you've got it. He's got it. He's got it. He said, what did he do? Just because he didn't go to bed. Oh, no. You've got it. You've got it.
And he said, oh, he shot his wife in the head.
Oh my god.
Oh my god.
Oh no, this is so bad.
And anyway, then he goes, oh, hang on a sec.
Hello, and the wife showed up.
And a woman with a quarter of her head missing
showed up to meet him as well.
I'm literally, I don't I've literally never been more terrified
in my life of being with these three people. Because that, that, she, genuine, it was like
it was like a cartoon, like a big chunk of the top of her head was just not there. And
he was like, oh yeah, this is the, this is a, she turned up to shoot him. No, no, I think
she did it to say, oh, you know, all forgiven, you know time is a great one. I imagine she has. She's got no idea.
She did what? But anyway, that's that's what I think of when I think of coaches, you know,
I always think of them. Call them greyhands, I call them called the Macabuses. Oh, that's good stuff. Oh, that's good stuff. Yeah, really good.
Be self.
Be self.
From the starting I can be.
Be self.
Do you want to see what the world is really like?
Yes.
Four things is deliciously funny
and spectacularly entertaining.
A woman plotting her course to free to pat in love for.
It's non-stop bonkers brilliance.
I love that. Poor things. It's non-stop bonkers brilliance. I love that. Poor things.
It's like theaters, December 15th.
Dear Beat Brothers, I have a flatmate based beef that I would appreciate your opinions on.
I live with three flatmates for anonymity purposes, we shall refer to them as wife, daughter,
and son. Recently I was fortunate enough to receive a 500 dollar voucher to a
popular online merchant through a side hustle that I maintain. I view the
frequent receipt of gifts and rewards such as this one as a unique opportunity to
spend the money without regard to normal flat budgeting considerations.
Money is in quotation marks and don't really get why. Oh, it's about you. It's about you, yeah.
As such, I thought it would be nice to treat my flatmates to a gift of their choosing.
I thought they could each choose something they want and then the left over, I would indulge
some of my own personal passions, brackets such as board and card games, etc.
I did not want to set a price limit, instead wanting each flatmate to pick something they
would like.
I figured if one went for something slightly expensive, it would be balanced out by another
choosing something a little cheaper.
I bet you can see where this is going.
By the time all three flatmates had chosen their gifts, the $500 voucher was down to less
than $20.
I felt very disappointed in a quandary.
Revoking a gift before checkout or suggesting an alternative did not seem like the right
thing to do, so I had to take it on the chin
Do I have a right to be disappointed in my flatmates taking full advantage of the generosity or did I get what I deserved for not setting limits in the beginning?
The asking on the cake was the fact that our cat got more from the $500 voucher than I did
I always knew that the cat was a greedy little shit anyway
Beef brothers, please advise. Thank you and it fans, heath.
Thank you, heath.
Right, Eric, what are your immediate thoughts about this situation?
Yeah, I think he's just an idiot, I don't know what the standard...
Bear in mind, this is one of our dear listeners.
Yeah, no, I think he's like an, idiot to me doesn't reflect morally, really.
It's just like a fact you can be an idiot,
but you'd be a great person and someone I value.
But, I just don't, I don't really,
I suppose you've been very nice.
If I don't really get the need to,
maybe I'm a psychopath, why is he,
he's usually gonna have to share it in the first place.
Maybe you said, don't tell them to set that limit.
I think that's crazy as well.
I'll be like, well, I'll get you some of the 50 quadeach
or whatever.
Just get them three gifts.
Yeah.
But of your own choosing, don't do this pick what you want thing.
Because I'd hate to be in that situation.
Someone to tell me I've got this $500 pick some at,
I don't know.
Yeah.
Hey, what you on about me?
Yeah, I think that's it, isn't it?
Because the worst, like, one of the worst things about presents,
and I'm not a great fan of receiving gifts,
I find it tricky, a whole, everything around it,
I find very tricky.
But one of the worst bits of it is, a couple of weeks before your birthday, when you're, you whole, everything around it, I find very tricky. But one of the worst bits of it
is a couple of weeks before your birthday,
when your parents, and it's,
I feel tremendous guilt for it,
because your parents say, what would you like for your birthday?
What do you like for your birthday?
Oh, it's just, it's kidding me.
It's such a hard question.
Just get me something.
And it's a crap question.
I like.
Buy me something.
I like it because you tried to buy it me.
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
And then I'll go over it.
Yeah, even if I don't like the thing.
It's going straight down the chateau.
But the thought is what's important there.
But there's literally, I just, I think, yeah,
I think that's it.
I think if you could turn back time, Heath,
I would have just bought three nice things.
Oh, well. Did he say that it was frequently, he was getting these vouchers frequently?
That's so look.
Oh no, he said, oh the opposite.
He said, I view the infrequent receipt of gifts and rewards such as this one as a unique
opportunity to spend the money without regard to normal flat budget to considerations.
So he's saying because it's so rare, you know.
It could be a treat for everybody.
Yeah, I don't know.
Here's what you've got to do.
I think next time, I know you say it's in frequent,
so if there is a next time, next time,
get one thing that the whole family can enjoy
that costs about 500 Australian top.
Hot tub.
Hot tub, exactly, that's exactly the sort of thing
I was thinking of.
Get a hot tub or an Alexa or...
PlayStation.
PlayStation, there you go.
I mean, yeah.
How much is a small climbing wall?
Oh, my small climbing wall.
Yeah, small climbing wall.
I reckon you could comfortably get a small climbing wall
for something in the region of $500, Aussie Dollars.
Surely.
Because you don't need the, like, you've got the wall already, right? So you only need
to just hammer in some notches or something.
Oh, I see. That's how you shit now.
That sounds complicated, yeah, yeah.
We're off the idea of climate war. The not-chammering thing is just going to be right.
Hot tub's much better, yeah. It's put me right off it, yeah.
But you're not getting a hot tub 500,
are you gonna have to knock yourself a wall?
No, you can get a hot tub 500.
What?
I've just searched, by the way,
it's about the current rate of exchange,
Xe are giving us 257 pounds, British pounds.
Oh, that's a good one.
Okay, okay, okay, we're in trouble, yeah.
I didn't realize that was not. I was sort of thinking it was about 400 quid, but I think you can get a 200 quid hot tub, maybe one of the inflatable ones, but then is that, you know, it's a paddling pool, is that
a paddling pool?
Yeah, you get a paddling pool.
It's Australia, it's hotter there for longer than it is hot here.
True. Or it, you know, more coherent sense. So are we saying next time by a paddling pool?
Get one of those fucking tandems where the whole boys can all hop on as a family and fuck around.
I said what, for all four of them, a quantum.
You're the same day, just get a basket for the cat, I said what for all for all four of them a quantum
Yeah basket for the cat little basket for the like it's fucking room on the broom It's like a tandem and off you go
Yeah, maybe get a cat or a dog
Yeah, we've got a cat and that's nearly got a car cat the cat got more than he did
That's one one that cat a lesson lesson when I get in a better cat.
A lap cat.
Get used to my lap cat.
Head cat.
Head cat.
Head cat.
Lap dog head cat.
And then like shoulder hamsters,
like little epilogue.
Like, yeah, like sort of brassile holders.
Yeah.
It's a good idea.
If you can train them, you know,
or I think the way to do it would be like Python scarf.
That's, although actually Python's gonna be
quite tempted by the cat, right?
If you've got a cat in your head
in the Python Ragnac, that's the situation you're in.
That's the dream.
That's the dream you're in. That's the dream you're in. That's the dream. That's the dream you're in.
Surely you just go $100 each, fill your guns.
Yeah, totally.
And it becomes a game then.
It's a bit like looking through the August catalog.
What made it fun was that you looked at the prices
and you cut your cloth accordingly.
What can I get for 15 pounds?
That's it. Yeah.
Everybody gets a hundred
dollars. Or you go, or we all are tipping together and get this, this tandem. This is
quite a lot. I think this guy is needy. I think that's what
it happened. I think he wanted to be like, spend whatever you run because he's for some
sort of whole there that needs to say. Well, yeah, and I think this actually reveals quite the sort of deeper psychological issues and I hope he
We try and stay healthy and it's we try and stay here with us
We try to name for things more like a condoms and shit
Maybe family therapy would be would have been the best best choice
But how are they getting to that therapy?
I reckon if your therapist saw you arriving on a quantum they'd be like there's nothing I can do for you
You've already cracked it you've already cracked families the family's pandems together stays together
families. The family's pandems together, stays together.
Be solved. Be solved.
Oh, yeah, here we go. Right. Um, so it's another appearance of the
fantastic hotline. Oh, every podcast have got hotlines.
Exactly. Exactly. Tom, how many podcasts have got hotlines? Exactly. Exactly Tom. How many podcasts have got hotlines?
How many podcasts have got no idea how to share?
Okay, I don't want to share that.
I just want to share.
How many podcasts with hotlines?
I've got one guy who's could desperately struggling to see where the share sound button is.
Okay, basic.
Share sound, but I don't want to share my desktop.
Do you not want to share your desktop
because you've been shopping for pandems?
I've got it.
I do have a plan before I screw in, to be honest with you.
Is there such a thing as a pandem?
Oh, yeah.
And just put some of our misery clarky.
How much they cost?
What, like, because you're getting that custom made, aren't you?
Oh, well, okay, this is precision, precision tandems.
Ah, they're not giving me.
No?
They're not being forthcoming with the prices,
I think that's the other good stuff.
Are you thinking about Toby Finch's website
with the four of his on a quantum
if I can make any more of a flyer in for Eric?
Oh, well, how it works is,
you buy the quantum,
Perry, well, you can buy it from the joint account,
you buy the quantum, you cycle up from Exeter
on your own to London, then we hop on
and then we do the big stretch,
the three of us all the way up,
we gotta pick Emma up as well, sorry Emma.
How long's this long room?
Because, well, I'm thinking it's just
a science system in the basket,
Eric goes in the front seat and we paddling up in this long room? Because, well, I'm thinking it's just a science system in the basket, Eric goes in the front seat
and we pedal him up and down the long room.
Right, there's no scientists.
Yeah, why not just pedal the sound system?
Oh, where's the theater in that, Eric?
And then have me stationary,
just move the speakers up and down.
It's a good point, he makes a good point.
Okay. This is where you preview.
Okay.
We've sorted this out of the vaults. In the meantime,
though, 7,199. That's too much. That's just too expensive. We just can't get that. We've got
five, we've got $500. Yeah, we've got 250 quaird. There's nowhere we're buying that. Here we go. Let's see if we can all hear this.
Hi, Pat Pong from Dust.
My name's Yuan, and I have an unwanted football dad,
friendship beef.
Not one thing sound like a humble brag,
but my seven year old son is pretty good at football,
something that I have not had a child.
And as such, goes to his local football team
and plays every Saturday morning.
The other Saturday he scored what can only be described as an absolute balter from outside
the box where a number of other dads, more of the alpha dad variety, took an interest
and turned to me to give me congratulations. Then turned to their children and berated them.
I don't want to associate with these people.
I don't want to become a alpha-bad myself.
How can I not discourage my son's sporting prowess,
but distance myself from the advantage
of these toxic masculine retrograde stereotypes?
I need your help.
Thanks, you and Imbromley.
You and Imbromley, this is a great beef.
Wow, wow, wow, this is a. Wow. This is a great big this is a great big and I mean and yet another week when the hotline
Tell you what I tell you what it was a it was you know when you first told us how how much it was gonna cost to get up
I
Money was shocked at a pool to but it is really, it's paying off in dividends.
We're doing all right.
Okay.
Eric, what you're making for us?
Yeah, well it's easier said than done, but I think you've got to, I think you've just
got to, got to call it out.
When it happens, just say that's what you're doing, sharing that you kid kind
of think. Which sounds a bit like a, do you let Advertisement, you know, a multi, big
multinational, trying to sound like like that. It's this old thing sounds like a cliche
like the one kid scoring and the other kids doing shit and that. Just you, but you have
to go to a step side and say, yo, that's not cool. And then everything's fine.
That's just different.
Yeah, and you're clean shaven.
And I, or if you're not brave enough to do that,
which is hard to, just I think you just got to talk to the kid
and say, it was good that you scored.
But, well,
don't get a big head about it.
Don't get a big head about it.
Did you put in any team for scoring?
That could level the playing field.
Or just say, you know all the other kids that the dads were pulling shit, they have value
too, even if they are shit at football.
Like, even if they are terrible, they're just as important as you.
You know what, I like the second version of that, A, because I am a coward, and I can't imagine anything worse
than parenting somebody else is,
or telling criticizing another parent,
for being a parenting, I feel like that is the main reason.
Yeah, it's awesome.
Also, that's, you know, like, this generation,
there's no hope for them.
There's no hope for us.
It's the next generation we have to focus on, right?
You know, there's no like, as parents,
you know, we try and do our best, but basically, we're already programmed. The person we are
has been programmed into us from birth. You're currently doing the programming on a young
mind. Yeah.
It's just what you've got to do.
Another coward's way is to maybe just talk to the referee or the managers and just
just find a just
snitch, a little complaint that you know that they should have a word about the
parents doing it kind of thing. I look I think I think the the solution
simple to this one you just got to go up to the biggest dad and shiv him. On the
coach on the way to the ground. Yeah, that's it. Kitting there early.
This is a good point though, because you know,
that's what they say they look for.
If you want a kid to do well in sports,
you have to have a mad parent, right?
You know, that's, I'm sure I've talked about this
on the podcast before, since I heard that a bit of info,
I've thought about it a lot.
You know, like the William Stad, King Richard,
and Judy Murray, you know, you've
got to be a little bit bonkers to turn out a world champion. You've got to bring the
same sort of coach, you've got to bring the same sort of coach madness. I think that's
it. Be a bit more a bit more crazy-eyed about it. And then at the very least you're going
to scare off the other dads. Wait, so you saying that this dad should be like not to their own kid?
Yeah, I think you're joining the bad dads.
Yeah, I'm saying you and you're gonna have to...
Listen, you already got the best kid on the field.
Yeah, but you want the best kid in the world.
Every time.
In every city and every town, mate, there's the best kid in the field, right?
And you know where they stay in the fucking field?
And they say, I've got a nutcase dad
who's gonna push him to their very limits.
And then Will Smith is gonna play him on telly.
Yeah.
I think you're right, is.
Thank you.
If I just, you know, you're just tell me,
I'm just happy with that.
If you say to your kid, look,
what I do down there on the football field today,
it's not real, take it with a pinch of salt
Then you go down there and he scores a worldie and you fucking lay in to him you go that was shit call that top corner
You get another two centimeters of that it's going off the bar you fuck it piece of shit and the dad
Who are about to break their kids would go like Jesus Christ alright mate rain it in a bit?
Oh Their kids would go like, Jesus Christ, alright, they ain't reign it in a bit. Oh, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well,
I played guys, and by showing them
that I hold it up a mirror, then I've paused to think,
oh, actually, that guy's fucking nutty.
There's a certain utilitarianism to that, isn't there?
That you're not necessarily doing what's right
for your kid in that instance,
but you're doing what's right for the greatest good
for the greatest men in it.
It's the old, it's the whole tram situation isn't it, if your son's driving a tram and
he's about to run over loads of people, do you show Tatim or do you show origin?
Oh, do you just carry on trying to look for an empty seat?
Why did you kill one person? You could kill seven of them.
If you let me pull that fucking lever. Your disappointment to me.
I mean, it's a fantastic beef. And one that I think gets to the nub of how we all feel about our childhoods,
and how we'd like to feel about, you know,
where we'd be compared and to get to, it gets right there.
Tom, you say what would you say about parents?
You're a parent.
You are a
better. What?
I've got some to shout. No more
kick ups.
Really finished. No no. Daddy's
podcasting. What you don't see is my
dad's stood just in the corner
over there. Shades of me to make more
comments.
I'm trying, Dad, I'm trying.
Oh, my God.
My dad's telling me to do less.
Oh, that's true.
I've, we all reached this pinnacle in comedy
because we had to add one mad parent.
Yeah, absolutely.
My dad drove from Wolverhampton to Wimbledon
to watch me in the laughing horse,
do you accept me final.
I think there's an element of madness there.
Yeah.
He should have said no, son.
How did he go?
I was up against Joe Wilkinson, you can't really argue with that.
You know what I mean?
You can't.
Well, not if you've got to lose a mentality, certainly.
I hope your dad reminded you of that.
But that's me all the way back to more than.
Yeah.
That's how it's done, son.
That's how it's done.
Effortless, that was.
It was like you didn't even want to be up there, and he was making us laugh.
It's not drawing so hard.
Oh, I'm actually firing all this quite painful now.
Yes, I know.
It's actually pushing a few buttons I didn't want to push, but they exist, so let's
push them. You know, our upbringing gave us buttons, right? You know, you've got to push
them, haven't you? That's what I'm going to do. What's our final piece of excellent advice? Do you think it is a call out the,
call out the dads or snitch on the dads?
Because you and I said he doesn't want that guy,
he doesn't want to join them,
he doesn't want to become a toxic dad.
I mean, the tricky thing is,
I think he's kind of,
he seems to be doing the right thing, doesn't he?
One final suggestion is celebrate his misses
as much as you celebrate his goals.
And Lee, by example,
Dream is too imposterous, just the same.
If he has a shot and it's going to go
a big celebration, singing,
well done lad, I think you're meant to talk.
You tried, mate, you tried.
Because that's true.
That was the old Wayne Gretzky thing
if you miss 100% of the shots you don't take, that's what he's doing.
He's going for it, he's trying.
I think that's...
I miss all the shots I do take as well though.
Oh yeah, that's a problem.
I might as well not take it because it's not in that way.
He gave you both of those bits for tonight, isn't he?
That was a bad training session.
It was your first time playing eye-socky though.
It should have gone a bit easier on you clocky.
For great one meets the shit one.
And that's hardly fair.
Do you mind that?
Do you mind that?
What a twist that would be to this episode.
Yeah, I think that's a good advice Tom.
Beef Solve.
Beef Solve.
Beef from the starting again beef. Well Eric, thank you so much for coming on the show
Thanks well thank you guys for coming on the show
yeah great I love it it's been great who is your guest next week, we've also got you guys again.
Thank you.
Great.
Yeah, and we've got guest host Fern Brady.
So that would be good.
Great.
Yeah, Fern on the show.
Okay, okay.
Yeah, yeah.
Taking the bat on from me, yeah.
Wow, okay.
We'll send Fernodine a DM and tell her she's saying the podcast.
She should be happy.
I think she's a little bit at the and tell her she's saying the podcast. She'll be happy. I think she's holding it at the moment,
but she can find the time.
It takes 90 minutes.
So, if people wanna, now I first saw you through
your brilliant Instagram where you post clips
of gigs going a variety of ways.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Because too many comics post all of their good stuff, like their best crowdwork.
All the time you just completely on their side.
Whereas you don't, you take the path less travels.
Yeah.
Path of the, yeah, and I suppose it's not as successful for getting people to follow you,
but I'm gay, man.
Yeah, well, I find those the funniest bits when you're just the circuits mad. You
do all sorts of gigs in such random rooms that aren't equipped for comedy. I mean that's
what I'm basically doing in the fringing, but it's just like, as people that don't want
to be at gigs and I don't know, maybe that becomes less the higher you go up in the
circuit, but I find there's so many beautiful moments, I find them really funny.
I do all watching your clips, I think they're absolutely brilliant.
And I was so, I was, enjoyed them so much, like I came and saw you, as I said, live at
the vault festival.
And I was disappointed at how good a gig you had.
Right, yeah.
That's the strange thing.
I was not so, but so you know, I wanted you to have an absolute stinker with you, and
you're talking about it walking out.
But you actually, you, you disappoint me here,
that you had the audience in the palm of his hand
from the beginning.
And I thought, this is not what I paid for.
Yeah, I tried to keep that off Instagram.
Yeah, no, not a single clip from that show.
Yeah.
Remind us again, you'll show 345 at the long room,
is that right?
Yes, 345 at the long room in Cabaret Voltae every day.
And also, can I plug, I'm recording the show in a good room.
I'll not tell you about the seventh at Birmingham Glee.
I'm so.
Well, there's tickets still available if people want to come.
Brilliant.
Good luck for the rest of the fringe, man.
Thank you.
I'm very much for the water pleasure.
Thank you.
Thanks for coming on.
Good. From the starting, I can beat you. Wow, that it was a pleasure. Thank you, thanks for coming on. Here from the sorting I can be!
Wow, that was good, wasn't it?
That was good.
I really enjoyed it, but can I say I'm kind of guilty of not saying you should wish away
hours, but as I was listening to it, I couldn't help but think at the end of this, we're
going to get to listen to another jingle.
Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the listen, but I knew this bit was coming.
Listen, I just want to say to anyone who skipped ahead to just hear the outro, which I know
some people do, they listen to the intro and the outro, not the main body of the episode.
I know a lot of people do, let me get a lot of emails about that.
The top and tailors, they call themselves.
The top and tailors, as they call themselves, yeah.
Check them out on Facebook, they're a very fun group with the top and tailors.
They're doing the fringe at the moment at the top and tailors
They're doing a really really great job doing the long room
Either end of it aren't they? Yeah, they've made it work for themselves. Yeah
The top is the top of the tail. Yeah works out perfectly
So so yeah, if you skip to head do go back and listen to the episode because it's a fantastic episode
But let's let's treat you now to this next jingle. This comes from our dear friend James. James Bulbeck is his name.
Hello all, hope you're well. I've been inspired by your clarion call for
jingles towards your highly successful and non-atall misguided hotline. I do hope you appreciate my
attempt at making an otherwise catchy catching instantly recognizable phone number memorable. Like all my
papi's interactions, I've had a few beers. As a result, I hope you can forgive
the self-indulgent and completely unnecessary guitar solo at the end. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, much love and always appreciative Jim from Harrow via Bochem.
Okay folks this is James Bolbeck aka Jim from Harrow via Bochem and his jingle. I'm gonna pop this. O2, O8 One, two, three, three, two, seven, two, oh, two, oh, eight
One, two, three, three, two, seven, two, oh, two, oh, eight
One, two, three, three, two, seven, two, oh, two, oh, eight
One, two, three, two, seven, two, oh eight, one, two, three, two, seven, two, one.
Woo!
Shit!
For the world.
Well, who knew Harrow was short for harrowing?
Beautiful. That was good.
That was great.
So too very strong, I would say we've got Bennett and Jim there, two very strong
jingles. I've already done a little cut down version because I love the bit which is
just singing the number. I mean the zombie pastiche.
It's very on brand for us but you know, it's not necessarily useful to helping people remember the number.
We've got two little things now we can we can use to remind people. If you want to get involved
