Hello, I'm Rob Beckett. And I'm Josh Winnockham. Welcome to Parenting Hell, the show in which Josh and I discuss what it's really like to be a parent, which I would say can be a little tricky. So, to make ourselves and hopefully you feel better about the trials and tribulations of modern-day parenting, each week we're chatting to a famous parent about how they're coping. Or hopefully how they're they're tha be hearing from you the listener with your tips, advice and of course, tales of parenting woe. Because let's be honest, there are plenty of times when none of us know what we're doing.

Yeah. And Romash doesn't know it. When do you think we should drop it in the interview? When it starts getting, if we're drying up. So, so kind of two-thirds the way throw? Yeah, and I'd say don't be panicked five minutes in if you feel like it's not warming up,

we'll get there. Yeah. of Weekest Link this morning. He's bigfoot in Mars Singer. He's actually Joel Dommet in a mask. That's the big reveal for the Marsinger. Unfortunately if Romash was in Mask. But no, that's the big reveal, because there'll be a big reveal. The big reveal is that none of the judges or the presenters are them, they're all in masks. pretending to be Mo Gilligan, pretending to be Jonathan Ross, pretending to be Joel Domit. Yeah. It's actually Romesh, his mum, and then the cheeky girls. That's the judging panel. That's that's the big reveal. Which ones which? What? Which one's which? Which one's which?

Which is? No, no. Romish is they-go on the right. Yeah. And Romish's mum's Mo Gilligan. Yeah, Shanti's Mo, and then Chicky Girls, Rita Rora at Davina McCall, and then Romish is Joel Domit. Oh, so Jonathan Ross himself? Yeah, that's why Romish is all this way to play Joel. Jonathan's himself. You can't make a mask out of that man's face. Normally, you know what I say in this situation Rob? Go on. Normally we do 10 minutes before the guest. Yeah. I'm gonna stick my neck out. We're barely going to have to edit this Romer

Because I know that it's not the things that I, it's never, you know, they're always going to say mock the week, whatever, because they mean what the week tele, basically. It's like Hoover, isn't it?

What? We always know this. I know we know each other, but a little bit of buildup would be nice. You might recognize him from the weakest link from, it's not rocket science. It's not rocket science.'s not rocket science judge Romish he's death on live TV as part of soccer a em yes as your intro for that rubbish welcome back I like it like it yeah welcome back you're our third time yeah how many people have you had on three times just people that

want to keep promoting that's that's that's really it clean pluggers luckily I've got promoting. That's that's the theme pluggers. Luckily I've got enough I've got enough projects on the guy that I could be a weekly guest. Anyways you do Wolfanow in it. Yeah basically. What are we talking about this week on Wolfernow? It's my new show that I've got actually. It's just Tom Davis's podcast. No one's realized you just booked the same guest every week. Welcome back, Ron. For the uninformed listeners, three kids, what ages are they now? Three boys? You've got three boys, 14, 12 and 9. Right, okay, so you're heading into Pubes Town. It's getting older, teenage boys. Men, you've got men under the roof.

Yeah, it's slightly, well it is like having a bloke in the house. I mean, he's almost as tall as me now. I'm living with a young man that's grown up in Crawley. Do you mean? So he's quite, he's like a crawly balk house, do you know what I mean? I don't know if I know enough about Crawley. Yeah, the only person I heard from Crawley's you. Yeah, well there you go. Well, it's sort of, imagine me, but sort of less socially awkward

and actually having some success with women. No, I mean, no, I'd say if you put your eldest son next to you when you were the same age, you'd look like different species. If you'd, time travel, if you could never do back to the future, I don't know what you and Lisa have done, but I'd say sort of you've left, I've got an idea. Yeah, this is parenting hell, you've got no idea that happens. The evolution of man chart, I'd say you've gone a few levels up in one generation. Yeah, I would say is Lisa's genetics have done my bloodline a huge favor. That is the best way of summarizing that. Yeah. Which I'd say Rom, I'd say is fine for you to say, but for me and Rob White to say that Lisa's genetics have done your bloodline a good service. Yeah, I mean, I'd certainly hope

that Lisa's not on some, you know, some other podcast going I've done on Romish's bloodline a favour. Yeah, I mean, oh, your son's so handsome, must be all the white in him. Must be that white woman. All along with genetic. We diluted that. We diluted that brown right out. And actually, when you really get it down low enough, it's actually quite appealing. Yeah. She was dealing with double concentrate and she's really, really diluted that there. So you've got a cruelly bloke in your house. Yeah. And do you get on with him like a mate? A little bit.

Yeah, it's sort of, it's sort of a, it's three levels of, uh, thrown with him and he wants to thanks and sort of, you know, messing around and like, you know, I, I, I, th...... thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th. So, th. So, th. So, th. So, so, so, so, tho, tho, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, tho. So, and, and, and, and, and, so yeah I'm going with him and he wants hugs and sort of you know messing around and like you know he does I'll play fortnight with him a bit and stuff the middle one is really into tech and stuff so I go in there into his room and he'll talk to me about the iPhone 15 for 45 minutes and then you go into you go into what kind of kind of chat is it you having about that? Mate, he's like obsessed with text. So like, so whenever we're buying anything, I go into him and it's like going into Curry's,

do you mean? Like he'll start giving me the breakdown of the various text specifications, not the, yeah, yeah, yeah. But he knows all about the specifications of it and stuff and what he can do. Yeah, and all that and he's like deep dived into like YouTube videos on you know different bits of tech and like cameras and stuff. I don't even understand half what he's saying to be honest with it. And then the oldest one is just a bit of a, he's quite, I wouldn't say he's quiet, he's like, he's not like life and soul, but he is, he's very cool. You know, like he sort of makes you want to be his mate. Do you know what I mean?

So I sometimes go into his room and I'm a bit thirsty to be honest with you. But it is like, it is like having a mate. Do you know what? We'll like sort of, like, thi. to, like, like, like, like, like, to, to, to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to be, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to be, he to be, he to be, he to be, he to be, he to be, he to be, he th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. throoooooooooooooo. try. try. try. try. too. too. too. too. to to to to to, he's got to the point now where he started to, I say it's got to the point, it's been like this for the last couple years. He does find me embarrassing, like, I don't know if I said this last time I was on, but he actually shushed me when we're at a restaurant because I was being embarrassingly loud. I was like, I was sort of, I was sort of telling a story, the story, the story, the story, the story, the story, telling, telling, telling, telling, telling, telling, telling, telling, telling, th, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, to.

Previous end of the day, isn't it?

Yeah, yeah, exactly. Do you know what I mean? Do you know, do you know, I was running a show from the great rumish ranganese. And I was like, mate, listen, I said these people would be glad to be getting a show from the great rumish rangonaife. But yeah, he started to find a bit embarrassing, do you know what I mean? When I saw him the other day you were saying that he's trying to nick my, mate. their try and nick my mate. So he's, they're really into like dance and performance and stuff like that, right? So a few weeks ago we were going to, they were going to, what's it called, musical com,

or something, it's like a, it's like a event for people, like comic but, for musicals, right? Oh my girls are so, so I was, so I can see when you Google your glasses lie up. We're still on the set up. I'll be back for the laugh, don't worry. Come on, he ain't my first. I've never done this story before. It's new material. I don't know if there is a laugh at the end of this.

It might just all be set up. He overheard it in Carluccios. So anyway, I was doing Saturday Kitchen in the morning and then I was meeting them at Musical Con afterwards. So I went over there. And he... That's not a day. I know, incredible, right? So I got some abuse off Saturday Kitchen by the way. I never, I didn't think it was a controversial show, but I managed to get into some controversy for it. So do you know you do food heaven, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, food, food, the food, the food, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. th. thi, to thi, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, to to to to to to to to to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to-a, to-a, to-a, to-a, to-a, to-a, to-a, something, something, to-a, something, something, something, something, something, something, something, the it was a controversial show, but I managed to get into some controversy for it. So do you know you do food, heaven or hell?

Yes, yeah. Right, so my food heaven was sticky toffee pudding. Right, so we got food heaven. And like, you know, they bring the meals out of it. It's always food heaven. Yeah, I mean, I think if it's food hell the interview is not gone well. I think that's a good indication that you haven't really... It's your piltried on the side of it. So we're giving the raw meat as voted for by the public. So they gave me sticky toffee pudding

and like normally, you know when they bring over the other meals or whatever, you sort of share it out. I just ate it to myself. And then, because I thought that's what's're supposed to, I just ate it. It's my food heaven. So I ate it. I left on my way to Music the Con. I look at my phone, just my phone is blowing up with people calling me a greedy bastard. Like a selfish crap. You know when you leave a thing for you know when you leave a thing that you know when you leave the you leave a the thing, you leave a the thing, you leave a the thing, you leave they, you leave, you leave, you leave, you leave, you leave, you leave, you leave, you leave, you leave, you leave, you leave, you leave, you leave, you leave, you leave, you're the thing, you're to leave they, you're to leave a the thing, you, you're to to to to to to to me, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, to, their, to, their, to, to, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their their their their their their their their the, theat, theat, they, thooomorrow, theat, they, they, they me, they, they, their're used to it, but like when you leave a thing just going, I think that went all right.

Anyway, so anyway, I go to music, I go to musical con and I go to find Lisa and the kids and she says Theo's in the middle of a class, he's doing some dance class. Is he the 14 year old? Yeah, he's a 14 year old, yeah. So I walk into the, to watch him in the dance class, he's doing dance, like on his toes and all that, in a brand new pair of my Jordans. But he's just, so not an easy wearing them. He's like doing spins on him. I mean, he's like, well he's not a moonwalk and they don't favor that anymore. But, yeah, he's he, he's th th th he, he's th th thian he's thian he's thian he's thian he's thian he's thian he's thian, thi thi thi thi, thian, thian, thian, thian, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's not, he's not, he's not, he's not, he's not, he's not, he's not, he's not, he's not, he's not, he's not, he's not, he's not, he's not, he's not, he's not, like, he's not like, he's not, he's not, he's not, like, he's not a moonwalk and they've, you know, they don't, they don't favour that anymore. But yeah, he's doing all sorts of stuff. I couldn't make it up, Macarena, yeah, he's doing like, yeah, he's doing agadu, Jimmy's shit, Superman. He's upside your head.

Yeah, on his own, you can't get a trick together. No one really wants to. Are they like fancy ones as well? They like your good ones? Well, you know, it was a brand new pair that I'd struggle to get home. You know, it's one of these like... So how do you deal with that? Did he march across and rip them off his feet? Well, no. I'm in a situation where I'm trying to save my children children thaaahah have, right? And one of the problems that I have is if I get a mark on my clothes or if I get a mark on my trainers, I tend to sort of verge towards having a breakdown. It's pretty bad. And I don't want to pass that onto them. So I've pretended I was all right

about it and I just sort of swallowed it, I just sort of, tend. That's the best way for you to cope I think just sort of bury it. Yeah I think it's good. That's even for a podcast. That's what everyone's encouraging isn't it just to push it deep deep down so it's sort of festers I mean. I do find you can't wear nice shoes or trainers when you've got young kids because they will just stand on your feet. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. T their their their their their their. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. That that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that's that's that's that's that that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's. That's that's. That's. That's. That's that's. That's is. That's is. That's is. That's is. That's is. That's is. That's is. That's is. I that's.

Yeah, and they also think it's funny to tread on them as well. Like, you know, they sort of go, dad's got new trainers on let's stamp on them or whatever. And so I end up sort of looks like I'm just pushing them away, like livestock or whatever, because I just don't want them anywhere near my shoes. What's a bad look? What's? What's? What's? What's? What's? What's? What's? What's? What's? What's? What's? What's? What's? What's they? What's their? What's their? What's their? What's their? What's their? What's their? What's their? What's, their?

What's, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the to buy stuff and he wants, has he got a job? No, he's not good, he's not got an allowance. He has got an allowance, he has got an allowance, we sort of got an allowance, but we kind of do it like he gets a bit of money

in it every now and again, but it's more like he has to justify what his purchases, you know, we normally the pitch is like dragon's den. It has where where their, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, he's like, he's the the the the the to to to to to, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he. He. He. He, he. He, he. He, he. He, he. He, he, he. He, he, he, he, he, he, he. He, he, he, he. He. He, he, he. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He's, he, he's, he's, he's the, he's the, he's not, he's not, he's not, he's not, he's not, he's not, he's not, he's not, he's not, he's not, he's got, he's not, he's the, he's pitch, it's like Dragon's Den, actually at our house, where like if they want to buy something, Lisa and I'll sit on the sofa and they just have to give us a series of support and arguments as to why they should have it. And then, and then if we decide it's okay, it's okay. But the thing is, is that he's 14, now his tastes have become, their tastes become expensive expensive expensive expensive expensive expensive expensive expensive expensive expensive expensive expensive expensive expensive expensive expensive expensive expensive expensive expensive expensive expensive expensive expensive expensive expensive super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super expensive super early man. Do you know me? Like he's into like designer clobber, do you know what I mean? And like, oh yeah, TikTok's not helping. No. Do you mean like what's the brands for kids? What is like the dream for that life? If you said like, oh, you've won the lottery, you can go to the shops? What brands do they want at that age? Well, they sort of went through a phase of, uh the things incredibly wasteful, particularly with the younger two, is they get into YouTube's and these YouTube's and these YouTube's, they're

bringing up, yeah, they're doing merch drops. And then like the kids want like, what was it that Charlie? Our youngest wanted infinite lists. There's this YouTube called Infinite List. So he bought this hoodie that cost about 80 quid now he can't he can't stand infinite list he doesn't want he doesn't want anything to do with him and that was like six months late jumpers are they no they've definitely been made by one of the kids relatives going back now it's not good And with a 14 year old, is there, has there been any romance going on that you've had to deal with? No, there hasn't yet. The other two, our second son's got a long-term girlfriend.

Long-term? Yeah, yeah, yeah. How long term? 13 years. It's been about five years now. What's been with. What? No? Seriously? Seriously? Fuck off. No, seriously. So how do they meet just at school? Yeah, they've been going out since they were seven and they're now 12? You say going out. I can't, they've never been out. They've never been out. And what the relationship seems to be is that they sort of talk about each other like they're in a couple but when they're together they don't speak to

each other directly. So it's like being in a couple. It's not being a you and Lisa. Yeah it's a little bit yeah I think we do the apparently you can you model your relationship they really have taken to it quite well yeah yeah and so have you matter yeah and so have you to they the the the the they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they're they're they're they're they're to they they're they're they're they're they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they to have they to to to to to they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they to to they to to to to they're to to to they're took to they're to they're they're they're they're they're they're they're to to they're they're they're they're I mean, do they celebrate anniversaries? Yeah, yeah. Really? I'm scared and see big you. That's amazing. I don't know if he's ready to go public with it yet. So this might be, this is a parenting hell exclusive. Well, I think five years in, if he's still ashamed of her by that point, then he needs to, you know, how are you feeling about like your son going out on the lash? Well? th th th th th th th th. Well th. Well to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. that's that's that's that's that's th. that's that's that's that's that's, yeah. that's, yeah. that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that. That's, that. That's, that. That's. That's. That's. That's. That's. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I's. Yeah, to. I's, th. I's, th. Yeah, th. I's thi. I'm, I'm, I'm that's that's amazing, I'm that's amazing. I'm, I'm that's amazing.... Well, I'm just sort of nervous about, if you guys think about what you were up to at 14 years old, I mean, just in terms of...

So little, the wanking, it's so out of hand. No, but I'm talking about discovering your own body. I'm just, sorry. Discovering your own body? Discovering your own body? a fucking sex education speech. I noticed every time he goes to the toilet I'm just so nervous. Do you mean? I mean Rob I assume at 14 you were you're fully in that in that world right? Yeah yeah. Everyone is a half-term it was. I mean I was asking Rob Josh he seemed to confirm did you two know each other back then? We've been going out since we were 12.

What I'd say is though, it was, it was, for me, because it was like, it was harder to, because I shared a room and it was such a small house, it was harder to find the time and the space to do it, so that when I did, you know, you'd go to go to the toilet in our house so you turn the shower on and you've got to start you got to start wanking before the old water runs out yeah yeah absolutely and sometimes I mean I don't want to get too graphic but I sort of think well it's very rare that you get very rare that this you get this opportunity so I would often try and go a second time you know while why the wheeled because I can't get out so so I so so so so so so so so so so the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the their their their their their their their their their their their they they they they they they they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they they they they they they they're they they they they they they they they they they they they're they they're to to to to to to to to they they took to try try to try to try to to try to to to to they they're they they're they're they're they're they're they tt So it's not just TV shows you do too many of. He starts on before he's finished. Yeah.

And I was just going to say I knew what I wanted to do back then because I sort of started hosting my own wanks actually. I mean, I mean, I can tell you, I don't know if it's podcast suitable. I mean, I can tell you, I was sort of like... Oh, it's not just podcast suitable, Romesh. This has been clipped up for Instagram, don't worry about that. We're wishing we made it look like you cried on Stephen Bartlett rather than this one going up. Have you had a chat with him about it? No, it's become clear just from general conversation that he knows exactly what's going on. Do you mean, I mean, they, you know, but I don't know, I've never said to him,

I mean, if my dad came into my room when I was 14 and said, can I just, I just want to get this out of the way, you're at a certain age, what I want the noise? Are you wanking? I would have jumped out the fucking window. What are you going to get out of that? Yes or no? Even? I know. It's like why you wouldn't confirm? Yeah. I'm happy to just live with the suspicion. Do you know what I mean? I'm just like... Ignorance is bliss when it comes to your child masturbating? That's what I've always said that. Yeah, that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's the the the th. the the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the the the th. th. the the thi. thi. I'm the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm threat. I'm th. I'm th. I'm thoooooooooooo. I'm th. I'm th. I'm to that. That's what I've always said that. Yeah, that's the old saying, isn't it? Isn't it? Yeah. So listen, he probably, he possibly, probably is. I'm so nervous about the fact that this is Lisa's favorite podcast. Right, yeah, well let's move. I actually feel more nervous about saying it on this. Because I know it's more likely that you'll hear it on this. Or more people listen to this as this as more. Or more. Or more. Or more. this. this. this. this. this. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. he's more more more. thi. he's more he's more he's more he's more he's more he probably probably probably probably hea. he he probably probably he. he. he. he probably probably he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he. He. he. He. he. He. He. he. He. he. He. He. he. He probably probably. he. he. he. he. he. he's probably probably. he's probably he's probably he's probably he's probably he's probably he's probably he's probably he's he's he's probably he's he's probably he's more. he's more. he. He's another good point. I'm joking. Well, on the subject of Lisa.

You're not joking, are you? That factually correct. Well, yeah, we're not much more, but yes, he's more. Yeah. Yeah. On the subject of Lisa, hmm, yeah. This is a favorite podcast. Yeah. And so, do you know what, this wasn't our idea, was it it Rob? No, it came from... It came from your agent, Rom. She said,

wouldn't it be fun when you have Ron back on, because it's the third time, to get Lisa to answer some questions? Wouldn't that be fun, Ron? What sort of question? What sort of questions? No, no, no, not like how big... Where were you last Thursday? Yeah. No, no, not like how big is it doing. Where were you last Thursday? Um, so do you want to have a guess at her answers? Well, it'd be difficult to guess the answer to that and know what the questions were. But, uh, what would you like? Oh, he doesn't like it when he's not hosting, does he?

Woo! It wasn't like this to Claire from Steps on the weakest link at the weekend. Meisha from Gogglebox was on Weekest thing and they was like this. He was actually very almost flirting with H from steps. No, I'm a joke. Yeah, okay. How many questions is it? Can I just want to get some expectations? Uh, it's about 10. Ten questions. Okay, right, fine. I'll have a guess.

This feels like a great item, yeah, and I'm not anxious. What would you like, this is the first time, just to be clear that we've ever done a feature? Okay, fine. Yeah. What would you like him to do more of as a dad? Oh, God. He felt it was going a bit of fun. This is quite a dark. So Flo suggested a therapy session, did she?

She suggested you do couples therapy with her. Rum's about to go off on tour around the world this week and we'll ask him questions about his life and relationship. Right, before you leave the house for two months, what do you think your wife thinks? They're all very, you come out of it very well. Right, before you leave the house for two months, what do you think your wife thinks? They're all very, you come out of it very well. Okay, fine. I would say, uh, be around more, you know, maybe do less, away, something like that.

One thing will be taking more active role in completing homework. Ooh. Oh, oh. Is that what she said? Yeah, well, yeah. She noticed a comedy podcast. Why should get in so deep? It's such a real answer, isn't it? Such a fucking training the answer. Secondary school and the homework is sometimes unmanageable

when having to help and supervise all three of them. Okay, well, what I would say is, okay, in my defense, and I'm bearing in mind that Lisa will be listening to this, so I don't want to have to deal with a fallout from this later on. But Lisa and I have a different, we have different attitudes towards homework. I take it less seriously than Lisa does. So I feel like we can stress kids out too much with homework. I mean, I still feel like, and also as a math teacher, I know you're required to set to set to set to set to set to set a to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to their. And their. And their. And their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their, we. their, we are. theacher, I know you're required to set homework. Do you mean? You're obligated to set homework. Whether you want to set homework and think that's a useful thing is a different thing, do you

mean? So, yes. It might be teachers. And sometimes I see the homework's and I think this is just a time killer. This is not a real, this is not a learning. So yeah, you know, I actually is different. Having said that, I did the other day sit there, oh God, God, I'm making it out like I deserve a cookie for this. No, no, come on, let's know how great you are as a dad. No, no, but I mean, I've tried to get, I've tried to get I sat with, where's Josh going?

Close the door, it's got a short sown, you're not cold? No, I'm inside. I know, but... Josh, you're dressed... Josh, you're dressed like a member of Blink 182. Where are you? I'm so cold. Maybe shut up the door.

We best robber she's wife some fucking questions. Hello there, are you Lisa Ranger? I got an old pet and I've got some ideas. I wish you would help with homework. What do you prefer he does less off? How do you go into question too? No, oh that was fun. I enjoyed that.

With the homework, can I just say one thing about homework thing? I get that. I agree with you, Ron, I think the kids do too, they do so much in school, having to do more out of school is a bit too much. However, are you suggesting they just don't do it? No, I'm not, I'm not saying. Here he goes. Lear him in by looking like you agree with him and then absolutely. No, I'm not suggesting that they don't do it. The promise doesn't do it. That's their they's, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I. I. I, no, I, I, I, no, I, no, I, no, I, I, no, I, no, no, I'm, no, no, no, I'm, no, I'm, I'm, I'm not.

I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not. No, I do it. Yeah, yeah, that I don't have to sit with them and do it. That's my, that's what they're on their own. Also, look, the way things are going, Ron, you're going to be presenting gladiators

with one of your kids at this rate when Bradley, when the walch is she's had enough enough. I just, I just think to be like I have a bit more of a relaxed attitude which might not be the right way to do it. Do you know what? Respect, respect, respect. What would you think, what would she like you to do less of? What would she'd like me to do less of? I guess it would be leaving things around the house. I mean she, I would say that if Leib just was to leave me, it would be because of the amount of mess I create. No. No it it it would the the th, I would th, I would would be th, no, I would be because it, I would be because it would be to be because it would be because it would be because it would be because it would be the th. No, I would be because it would be because it would be because it would be because to be to be to be to be thi, thi, I'd be to be to be thi, I'd be to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, what, what to be, what to be, what to be, what to be, what to be, what to be, what to be, what to be, what to be, what to be, what to be, to, to, th. to, th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, that, to to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, to me, their, their, that, to me play FIFA tournaments with the two youngest. And it always ends in tears and tantrams and them falling out. I usually walk into the fallback coming back from a dog walk. Why does she, what does she think these answers are for? She's answered the reason? No she's honest with

no questions. She's don't need? No, she's honest with me. She's trying to hit her on for being honest. But I mean, this is not, this is, can I, Lisa, I know you'll be listening to this. Why have you done real answers? Why have you done genuine stuff that shows it in the most workings of a relationship? Well maybe s sown about the next one. What do you think of his fitness transformation? Oh my God.

By the way, these are very diggy questions. They're not. They're not. They're not. What did you think about the fitness transformation? I'd say that would be, that's not a diggy question. No. That's not a diggy question. That's nice. It's big in you up and giving her an opportunity to show you know the love she has for you. We'll see if she takes it but...

Should we see? I'm sure she'll sort of go into some details about some kind of erectile dysfunction I've got or something known. Yeah, it's great he's got a good body but his limp dick's doing my head in. Well, I'm interested after you've been so aggy, Rom. I am so proud of Rom and his transformation. He looks amazing and it's taken dedication and it's really paid off. Also, now I have a training partner at the gym. Can I say that's the first answer that Lisa's not being honest about because if I can if I can open the door onto this, she was actually quite pissed off about it to start off with. Not the not the the the the the transformation the transformation the transformation the transformation, not the transformation, not the transformation, not the transformation, not th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. thi, thi, thi, thi, he thi, thi, he looks, he looks, he looks thi, he looks thi, he looks thi, he looks, he looks, he thu- thi, he thi, he th.

And she found it, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, to thi thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, to to be to be to be to be to be they.. to be to be to, to, to, to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be they. they. they. they. they. thi, they. thi, thi, they. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. toooooooo. too. to to to to thi, thi'm just going to go off to the gym.

That's not a diggy question?

Are you joking? Oh God. Now that is, that is a digggy. Imagine, that, that is a, that is a the latest, the latest, the latest, that is a the latest, the latest, the latest, is a thi, is a di, is a di, is a di, is a di, is a diggi, is, is a diggi, is, is, is, is a diggi, is a diggi, is a diggi, is, is, is a that is, is, is, is, is a that is, is, is, is a di, is a di, is a di, is a di, is a di, is a di, is a d.

That is a bit of a diggy question, but we'd balance it out of it. That was a lovely answer. Yeah, it was a lovely answer. Yeah, thank you. Yeah, thank you. Um, okay, Jesus Christ. I'm slightly, this is so horrible. I think it's worse. Can I tell you. that I that I that I that I that I that it is. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I thin is a thi.

Yeah. Because I don't know what she said, I'm nervous, I'm going to say something worse than what she's, you know, self-preservation here. Exactly.

Well, do you just want the answer on this? No, no, no, no. No, no, no, no. Well, I so it's difficult for her to give a full appraisal but I would say I'm going to give you the answer that's correct that's correct, Ron. She said to be honest I don't have one as I haven't watched some of them. Most of them. Loo don't watch anything I'll do. That's a point.

It is a point, but is it a point taken away, I've been to mind she listens to every episode of this podcast and doesn't watch all of the stuff that her husband does on television.

That's where I see Romesh. You, do you know what, Josh, you really are well on your way to completing the complete transition to Steve Wright. And well, I would be, mate, if you hadn't just taken the plum job on radio too to work with all your other jobs.

I've been invited to my own roast. This is insane. You got to get going on you take it over from Stetspack lunch, in you? Rommish's dinner ladies. Yeah, we're changing it up though. It's called Romish's darlie. Is he different behind closed doors in his public persona? I don't think I'm different, although what I would say is possibly like when I'm tired I'm sort of, there was an incident a while ago where I was really knackered and sort of I came downstairs and we were having breakfast and Lisa was talking to me and I was, I would say it's

fair to say I was responding in sort of monosyllabic grunt and sort of just being a bit of, and she was going, God, you're fun, whatever, it was sort of like a bit, you know, it was only, I would say it's flirting on the edges of a disagreement, do you know what I mean in terms of what I was bringing to the breakfast, I was about to say session yourself that actually, but she's very positive. He's quieter and more sensitive than he comes across on TV. Well, how would she fucking knows? You don't watch any of it. I assume she's put on email. Yeah, I imagine. Does he command much respect in the home? I think this is a mixed, this is a mixed bag of an answer to this question. I would say that sometimes sometimes..... that sometimes, that sometimes, that sometimes, that sometimes, that sometimes, that sometimes, that sometimes, that sometimes, that sometimes, that sometimes, that sometimes, that sometimes, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th th, th, th, th, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to thi. thi. to thi. thi. thi, thi of an answer to this question.

I would say that sometimes I could be accused of being a little bit like Robin Williams' character and Mrs. Doubtfire, not the cross-dressing, but the, you know, the sort of, she was doing the sort of, yeah, yeah, yeah, the sort of, his wife was doing the kind of the serious parenting, and then he was sort of row a party or whatever I feel like sometimes I can be guilty of being a bit fun time dad do you know I mean I'd say I'd say I'd say she's given a nicer version of that I did he come on much respect in the home no not really that's a bad start obviously but he treats the children's equals the children's equals to have a laugh with them. You're like Laura Coonsberg reeding out something to a politician? Obviously it's not a bad

star, but what's your opinion on this? If he ever raises voice, which is really Josh, Josh, you made it out like that was a nice answer. Does he command let's let's let's get down to the nub of that of answer. He treats him as equals. I mean, that's not a compliment, is it? No, if he ever raises voice, which is rarely, or has to speak to the boys about something, they all know it must be serious. That's good.

That's good. It shows that they give you respect, you need it. Yeah, can I ask you an opinion on something. something, a parenting opinion. Are you guys supposed to be expert? What's the role on this? No, no, yeah. We are actually, yeah. Not even supposed to be, we are. We just are. We just are. We're not even supposed to be. We are just, okay. If we went on GB News, weigh, we're just parenting. Yeah, yeah. You know, then they're going on. You definitely can go on G. to go on G. the G. the G. the news news news's your TV aspiration. All I'm saying is if all the work dries up, I can have a couple of views for a couple of quid. I'll say no more. My question is, have you ever, have you ever told your kids off and then realize you've

got it wrong? What do you do? Do you let onto them? Apologize. Yeah. Okay, that's what I do. That's what I do. I think they respect seeing that you're not like the you're fallible. That you're not trying to be perfect.

And also it's fair, isn't it's not. Yeah, if you're not. that I was dressed I shouldn't have done it let's move on for it I think that's good wrong. Yeah so it's okay to sort of say look I'm sorry I got it wrong you know it's my first time doing this I don't know what I'm doing either let's just hold on and see what happens is that is that yeah I think so yeah but not I think that I don't think that I don't think you need to do that. I don't you know't a bit stressed, sorry, not like, oh, making it, oh, it's my first time doing this. You know, I don't think that, I don't think you need to do that. I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I'll give you a, the next question's quite similar, but it's very positive answer, so I'm just going to give you that. I'll skip that. Yes, they do. He has a very. the very. the very. the very. the very. the the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the th. th. the the th. the the th. thi. the thi. thi. the th. the the th. the th. the the the the the th. The th. The th. The th. The th. The th. The th. The th. The th. The th. The th. The th. The th. The th. The th. The the the th. The the the th. The th. The th. The th. The th. The th. th. th. th. th. the. the. the. the. the. the. the the the the the the the the the the the the. the. th nice. That's lovely. Yeah. Oh well that is a good one Josh go on. What day is Bin Day? Oh no. This is that when they get the Prime Minister on the one show, you know, the ask how much a pint of milk. Yeah. What? I mean, listen, who does bins? The situation is, is that, you know,

bin day in the crawly area is fluid and it can often change. If it doesn't. At Christmas it does. And sometimes I like to take the bins out, you know, earlier because... What is it though? When is it this week then if it's fluid? Thursday? It's Friday, I'm afraid. It's Friday, I'm afraid. So does Lisa do the bins? Look I'm away a lot okay? Oh yeah yeah because I don't travel door with you. Oh God. I'm always at home me. Okay genuinely do you know what? Sunday night can I just say third and final Can I just say, third and final time.

Third and final time on there. Oh, Rob, you'll be promoting something soon. And it'll be, it'll be this or Stephen Bartlett. You're always choosing this, come on. And then, before we are we going to be. Oh, you said he never wanted to go back on that. Yeah, I know, but just, th th th lad's plea? Is it possible? I hate that impression by the way. Sorry, man. Come on.

Do you ever suspect who works so much to get out of parenting and household? Oh, God, well I don't know where Bin Dazed. Um, no, I'm not doing it to get out of parenting and households. I'm doing it from, you know, an the imposition. th. thine, I, I, I, I, I, I, thin, thin, thin, I, thin, thin, thin, I, thin, I, I, I, I, I, I, I'm thin, I'm thin, I'm that, I'm that, I'm that, I'm that, I'm thin, I'm that, I'm that, I'm that, I'm that, I'm that impression, I'm that impression, I'm that impression, I'm that impression, I'm that impression, I'm that, I'm that, I'm that, I'm that, I'm not doing it to get out of parenting and house. I'm doing it from an ongoing fear and a, you know, I'd say Romish, I agree. I agree. I'd agree. I'd agree. I'd agree. I'd agree. Tell you wouldn't agree. Trauma that forces him into these takes. Yeah, exactly. I'll tell you, who doesn't agree with that. Lisa, who says yes, sometimes, particularly in lockdown where he did no homeschooling, made a clip which went viral on YouTube about homeschooling. I was doing rangonation from the garage. And they said, you know what when they said to you.

What a mad sentence? He was recording his TV show from the garage. Leases out there defrosting the car. Fucus in the garage. What a mad sentence?that he's recorded on his TV show from the garage. Lisa's out there defrosting the car, fucking hell, what their. So they asked me to do like, you know when they asked you to do like social media like clips of promo stuff, right? Yeah, yeah. So they said just anything you're thinking of,, you know in the same way that like parenting hell you had no idea that this is going to be any good and it's not good, it's just popular isn't it?

Yeah, it's just I don't think with kids just it's such an easy win online really. Yeah, I remember you two say like. I remember when you guys started talking about it, Josh said it clearly, I just think parents is where the money is, you know. There's always more, there's more coming. People keep reproducing, tc-choochee. It's hard and fallout. So the clip went big. And then what happened was it, like a mum shared it with, to send it to Lisa. I said, can you say thanks to Ron for like doing this clip for everybody homeschooling. She came upstairs and I was doing like the like th, like thing like thing, like thing, like thing, like thing, like th th th th th th th th th th th tho th tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho, like tho, like thi thi, thi, tho, people tho, people to to to to tho, people tho, people tho, people people their people people people their people their people, people, people their people tho, people tho, people th and th and th and thanks to Ron for like doing this clip for everybody homeschooling?

And she came upstairs and I was doing like a writing day. I was on Zoom. And she said, can you mute that a second? I muted it. She goes, I've just been sent this video about you giving advice to people doing homeschooling. What I'd like to know is Those are exact words. I can picture a saying that as well because you're so like polite and clear. What the fuck?

What, and what, oh God. This is great. Okay, final question. What was the one thing he does as a parent and partner that you think is amazing and you're so grateful for? You don't need to answer that, Rom. That would be a weird thing for you to answer. Yeah.

Romesh, he's an amazing role model for the three boys. He spends time with each of them differently and always makes time three different text conversations with each one of them for instance. It doesn't matter how busy is, he always checks in with them. Oh, wow. That is, this is great. I would say she's put a bit of extra stank on that. I'm probably not as good as she's making it. She's one group checked. Well done. She's saved it.

Saved at the end the thing I, when somebody says what is he really good at and they say having text conversations with his children. Is that he's in prison? He smuggles that's holding up his ass. He always checks in on him from Mongolia. He's such a great day. The group chat's called the children season 14. So there we go. So there we go.

Thanks for that guys. Well, go on. I'd say, I'd say that painted you in a very good light, Rom. Yeah. To the point where I was slightly disappointed. Yeah. No, sure. I do feel like there was a lot of guarded digs in that. Like she's been very clever about sort of pretending to be nice. But actually if you get to the underneath of it, it's... Also what I enjoyed was like you wouldn't have to talking about your body translation.

She's like, yeah, I'm really proud. You know, he's done well, dedicated. Also now I've got a. I don't know about that. It's not the only one absolutely ripped a shit in this house. If anything, I'm more ripped before, actually. Yeah. Even more so now. From, so you are going on tour. Yeah. Yeah.

Your new show, hustle. Okay, hustle. Just read out all the dates. I'm going to read out all the sold-out ones. Do you want me to read them out in case people? Is that all right?

Do you like the worst bit is is when you see about 80 people and five lorries and you go fucking L their only because I am. That's the the things they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're only. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. their. their. their. their. the only here because I am. That's to be the guy my head and then you go over that. See Rob thought they're only here because I am. I thought, overheads. Fucking out.

That's eating into the profit. That's eating into the profit. They're all fucking eating on my dollar. You've got to be kidding. Yeah, is that a second sandwich you're having there mate? The only demon's fucking lights. I don't think we should give out bottle water maybe just everyone bring their own because of the environment. Yeah, there's a tap over there.

Stick your head under it. We went on a family trip to see 50 cent. Bielsen and our eldest. And like on the thing they flashed up that I was we went to the O2 and they flashed out the thing to show like upcoming shows and like they showed hustle and Theo looked at me as if that realization had not bigged me up in his eyes but taking a bit of cross off the O2. You weren't the other way yeah yeah. His descent must be, my dad's playing it.

What's going on? Yeah, exactly. I thought it was still a big deal. At least you and the boys are going to come because it is, you know, you're such, and this sounds a bit disgusting because we're mates here. But you are one of the best standups in the country and you're going to smash this tour and I'm very excited to see it. Are they, because the last two did sort of grew and got out of hand and there was COVID and all that and it all started fairly small and then went mega when you sold out the Hamstiff Apollo for like 20 days but it was all a bit come out of nowhere where this has been planned for ages

it's such a huge event. Are the boys coming? Are they are going to have the the the the the the the the the the the the the to the to to to to the to to to to to to the O to the O 2 to the O2? I think on the on the Friday I'm doing an afterpart of the Indigo like a hip-hop afterparty so so they're gonna come they're all coming to the show and then Theo our eldest is coming to the party. Oh nice which is what is a mixed blessing isn't it because I mean I it's amazing Robin you just it's amazing thing to be able to share with your kids and be, to be present there and enjoy it. And however the gigs gone as well, you know, you got in. The way I was foul.

What do you mean, hold on? Hold on, hold on, Josh. What do you mean? all perfections, you all want it to go as well as it possibly could. And there'll be one little joke that didn't, because in a 90-minute show, whatever, there'll always be one little thing that didn't hit perfectly that you can allow your anxiety to cling on to and ruin your evening or you can go, yeah, do you know what? I didn't hit it perfectly, but I still did the joke and an arena full of people laughed. tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow, th. their their their their their their their their their their. their their their. their. Tomorrow, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, there's, there's, their, their, there's there's there's tho, tho, their tho, their their their tho, their their thi. There's thi, thi, thi, th. There's th. There, th. There, th. There, th. There, th. There, th. There, there, there. There, there. There, there. There, there. There, there. There, there. There's is tho, there. There's is tho, there's tho. There's thoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo waste of energy. And when Rob comes and watches, he'll take your side afterwards and go, look, that bit didn't work, but put that behind you. Try that I go of the anxiety. Did I tell you about my, did I tell you about my incident with Mark Schwartz? Have I told you this story?

The goalkeeper. No, sorry. So I was doing Hammersford for Polo. It wasn't even the last tour, it was a tour before. And I made the mistake of having my Twitter, like looking at my Twitter in the interval, right? Yeah. That is absolutely. I know. I know.

That is. I know.. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. to. to. to. to. to. to. I. to. to. to. to. to. the. the. the. the. is. I know. I know. That is awful. Okay. So anyway. Do that. I know. Anybody, any aspiring comedians out there. That's self-harm.

I know. I know. I know. I know. I know. I know. I know. I know. I saw a I saw a

tweet that said really not enjoying the really not enjoy right so obviously he just tweeted really not enjoying. He didn't tweet it he didn't he didn't tweet it just some randomer did right and is he tag you in on that of you searched your name. They tag me in, right? So it's just like, not really enjoying this. So I went out for the second half. And as you can imagine, I was having an out-of-body experience. I'm sort of going through the motions doing the material, but all I can think of is this one person out there. Absolutely hates it, right? If anything, they're idiots for laughing at me, because there's somebody that actually,

somebody knows the truth that this is trash, right? Yeah. You morons are lapping it up, idiots, right? So anyway, I do the rest of the show, I go into the bar, and Mark Schwartz or has come to the show. go into the bar afterwards and Mark Schwartz has come to the show and he's in the bar right so and I am spinning out but I don't want to be rude so I'm just like let me just go into the bar yeah so you just put out because of the tweet not because you've never met no because of the twoats I can't believe my fucking mind he played for full of Rames she's pushing 50 cent out the way

he's pushing past all the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the same the same is pushing 50 cent out the way. He's pushing past all these celebs. Mind her out for Elk. Fuck here now, mate. You brought your goalie gloves? No shit. Nah, shut the fuck up a second. Uh. So, so like I, I, I just, March Schwartz says hello to me, but I am totally, I'm totally

out of it, right? Because I'm just like, this is terrible, I'm terrible at stand up, da da, da, I shouldn't say hello, da da, you know, and I say hello, and then I just leave. I'm trying to get out of that. I just want to be polite, say my hello, I, to, to say, I, I, I, to say, to say, I, to say, to say, to say hello, I, I, I, to say hello, I, I, I, to say, I, to say, I, to say, I'm to say, I'm to say, I'm to say, I'm to say, I'm to say hello, I'm to say, I'm to say, I'm to say, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm t.

I don't think anything of it. It's the bar at your after the show drinks that the guests have been invited to. Yes. Just leave me the fuck alone I want to get out of here. That was great. Mark Schwartz has paid extra from eating great. Got his gloves on. Don't drop pipes. So I'm... Eight months later, I am just in bed one, and I get a text message from a mate going, you're getting coated off on fighting talk. And I look it up. You're in bed at 11 a.m. Fuck.

Lisa's downstairs doing some math same work. I've needed a bin day. Anyway, I, I, um, I, I, um, I get a testimony and you're getting cuted off on fighting talk. Anyway, it turns out that the question on fighting talk is about celebrities who once you finally met them is quite disappointing. Oh, no. once you finally met them is quite disappointing. And Mark Schwartz was on it again. Oh no.

He's on their Schwartz. Big boy Schwartz? No. What's he said about you? Did you listen to that? He just said that like, he wasn't horrible, but it wasn't complimentary either. It was sort of like, I went to see him. I was looking forward to say hello to him, and he just just, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, and he, he, and he, and he just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just didn't th. th. thi thi, he just didn't th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi, he thi, he's th. th. th. th. themed, he's themed, he's, he's themed, he's th.

at all like he just just like a bit call or I can't remember the exact word that basically I didn't come across I didn't come as well in that exchange anyway it gets worse no how well I deemed him on Twitter to oh no you did what I did with Alex Scott, yeah. Alex, why do I track these little losers? Both of you... Oh, Alex Scott? Oh, Mark Schwartz? Come on, lads! It doesn't matter! She's still not replied. Have you heard about the Alex Scott thing? Romish? No, what is it? Go on, tell me, what happened? I went to Madonna at the O2. That's not the thrown. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi, to, to, the, the, to, the, the, to, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the the the the the the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to-I. to-I. to-I. to-I. to-I. to-I. to-I. to-I. to-I. the the to-I. the the. the t Madonna at the O2. That's not the bad bit. Carry on. And I was in the box. And I thought there's no one. It was like a, I don't know. It's like, I don't know anyone in the box except the people I'm with.

And then afterwards, Rose was like, oh Alex Scott enjoyed it, didn't she? I was like what? And she was like, thi. the box with us. I've never met Alex Scott before but I felt, I felt bad for ignoring her even though... Oh God. Gosh. Even though I'd never met her, it's just two famous people in a box. This is absolutely awful. I DMED her apologizing for ignoring it. It's worse every time I come back to it actually. It's just so weird.

What did you give us a reason? What did you say? Um, just, I don't know, just, I don't think it, because, did you say, Oh, no, I said I've just been told you're in the box and I didn't see you. Sorry. Oh, right, okay. But this is quite a small those boxes, aren't though? Have you tried, did you go for a second DM?

No. But I DMed her and she replied straight away. Is that true? She went, hello, yeah, ha ha, I sure was laughing. It was a good concert. Oh my gosh. Because I think she's laughing at the apology from Josh for not saying a low time. A woman he's never met or been introduced to. Oh no. Yeah, it's better to leave that. I actually, I mean, for me, I think, you know,

did you DM Swart. I'm going to DMalch and go. How big is he by the way before I give him some shit? Massive. Can I DM it? So did you DM it wrong? Yeah, I just said to him that I was going through it. Oh, it's really bad. I'm actually embarrassed. I mean I've deleted my Twitter account now so I couldn't even access if I wanted to. But I just- I can still search name on there though. I do it. I don't. First of th. I'm to to to try, don't try back out of it, okay? Like, you obviously do that. I don't, I'm not on Twitter. You clearly, no, you quite clearly do that. And then you realize the mask could slip. I used to tweak, no, this is the truth.

I used to, I used to confirm my inability to use this piece of shit. Imposter Syndrome shouldn't be here. They're all going to find out, oh God, let me keep an eye on it to make sure it's not picking up a head of steam. Yeah. Like a movement. Just keep an eye on it so I know when to sort of cash in on advert jobs before the wave comes and I'm gone. So I've got I'm logged out all my stuff. to. to. to. to. to. to. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm to. I'm the to. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. I'm the th. the th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the thea. I'm the thi. I'm the thi. I'm to do that but I've I've got I'm logged out all my stuff now so I don't so I can't do it because it doesn't let you know you're not on Twitter either Rob I've got an account but I don't I don't I'm not logged in I don't read any messages or anything but I've just got it there so if I have to

tweet something to sell some tickets I'd just send that and occasionally searches his name that's all he doesn't there. Yeah, he says yeah, it's awful all night sometimes. Well I looked, I looked, I looked, I looked, I just said to him, listen I heard that you mentioned me on fighting talk. I bet he shut himself when he saw your name appearing in his DMs. Well I was very apologetic I said look I, oh, do you know what, I think I over-egged the situation. Come on, give me, give us the egg. Because I felt too embarrassed, this is so bad. I actually regret starting to tell this story. Go on, give us the omelette. I just, um, I didn't want to say, I didn't think you'd understand that I'd read, it's too difficult to go, I read a tweet that spanned me out for the second half. So I just said, I was just, I was just going through a tricky time at the time. One person didn't like my sold out show.

I got really down. That's it. I only did five more at the Apollo to follow. That is the thing that other, like Lisa cannot, you know, other halves, they totally legitimately, they want to empathize with you. But coming home to your wife and her going, are you okay? And you go, not really? And you go, why?

Did the show go bad? No. Did, was it a night? No? How did it go really? So what happened then? I got a tweat. I got a tweat saying that one person was enjoying it.

And it really spun me out. I mean, what the hell are you doing? They might have liked the second half as well. You're getting to know. You only got after a review. I enjoy the second half because the light went out of his eyes and he just looked like he was really within himself. It sort of looked like he had in in a darkness I quite enjoyed for the second their they's quite weird watching. There's someone at home. It the the the the the that it it it the that it that it. It that it. It's the that it's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's quite weird, it's quite weird, it's quite weird, it's quite weird, it's thi, it's thi, it's quite weird, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it, it, it, it.

Do you know what happened? That would be delighted though, won't they? Yeah. Well they wouldn't even... Because that's why they do it. If they're taking you in. I don't think a lot of... Some do it like that, but also some people just think of us th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. th. thinks thinks they thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, they they're just thinks, they're just thinks, do thi. they're just they're they're they're they're to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. they they they they they they they they they're they're they're they're they're they're they're thi. thi. to to to to to the. to the. tooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. And to to to to the. doing that tonight stay and have a Chinese or go and watch some comedy what was a Chinese I didn't really like it was a bit cold was a common like no we weren't really that into it was all right but it's not personal it's just no he might not have even been at the gig romp no I'm just gonna start looking at where people are on tour tweet out about 9 p. Yeah it's not really enjoying to sort of ruin second halves of shows. I suspect it might be another comic. I would say if you're not enjoying a show, don't tweet about that show at a half-time because comics are so pathetic and insecure. We will look. What, well, and it's not going to get better

after that message. We're around the shoulder players. We don't need the air-dry treatment. No, no. Having said that that threat. that, no. to. to thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. to thi. thi. thi. thi. to thi. thi. thi. thi. theateateatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheathea. to to to to to thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. th. the th. th. the. the. to to to to toe. too. toe. toe. too. to to though, if he tweeted... I think Romesh can turn this round in the second half. Maybe that would have been nice. Yeah, that would have been nice. Yeah, I've got really horrible first 45. But I did, but what I did happen was I had a moment like a few, like about two years later, I hadn't learned my lesson I was looking on social media and somebody, I was doing a show in right and somebody said not enjoying this but I knew the gig was going really well didn't affect me at all guys that's what you call progress yes that is it if Mark Schwartz who had been at the Edinburgh gig I would have been an absolute delight after that show you got the feedback on fighting totally what a great guy actually yeah what did Schwartz to say when you told him he was having a tririririririririririririririririri

back on fighting totally. What a great guy actually. What did Chaucer say when you told him he was having a tricky time? He just said I wasn't, I didn't mean it, he said, what did he say? It was something along the lines of, I wasn't saying that you were bad, I was just saying that you sort of looked a bit like not that fuss to chat, do you? Which, to be fair, like sometimes you are. I suppose if you're to to to to to to be to to be to to be to be to be to be to be to to be to be to the to their to be their to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to their their to to to to to to to me. to me. to to to to to to to to to to to to their their their their their their their their their their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their their true. today. today. today. today. today. today. today. truer day to day, people are just blown away to chat to you. So... It must be quite like a shock to the system when someone's not excited to talk about your middle of the day. Do you know the thing is though, sometimes, the other thing is, I don't if you feel this, but the nerves that you have about bumping into somebody that doesn't straight after a show you know like just generally that they might suddenly give you their take on the show on how you absolutely don't want to review of your

show immediately after the show no no no no I'm on high alert slightly yeah I do I do think spitting in his drink and walking out the bar was the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the theyrooooooooooo is is I I I I the the the the the the the bar was too much though. Can you imagine that though? You know imagine that though right? That delayed action of that. You leave the bar and you think I did all right there. I sort of you know gave a good account of myself I did what I had to do. I said about to everyone. Yeah. And then eight months later. Ron, when we did the O2, I was, we followed Elton John, which I found quite thrilling.

Do you want to know who you're on after? This, and this gives you a feel of the kind of company you keep. Okay, go on. Nickelback, and then the Premier League darts, and then Romash. I can't see people doing the triple edder. I don't think it was. Actually, do you know what, for the second O2 deck, we are actually doing a double actually, it's called nickel Romesh. If you fancy, if you fancy watching both those nights.

There we go. Well enjoy it, Ron. It's an amazing for you two have done.

But please can I just say do not buy tickets from via go-go, whoever the hell they're called? Oh yeah they're terrible. Yeah, Romesh-Ranganathan.co. UK, forward slash tour.

And also don't get tickets off. If you bump into my mom and she promises you comps or whatever, can you just ignore that please? Because that has been happening a lot. There is a show. She's handing out to people for various things. I mean if somebody was nice to her in a shop, she'll offer them free tickets.

If somebody from a car insurance company's been nice to her phone, she'll offer them free tickets. I mean it's currently that we have to have a line on the costings. Ron, my mom does the same. She came with her mate the other day. I found out it's the woman that takes her trousers up when they're too long. And she brought her along with my mom and dad and her. Rom, good luck the tour. Good luck with the tour. It's called Hustle.

For sold out shows, please visit Twickets. Yeah, there you go. You've got a little run and then the bigger rooms. Oh, mate, it's amazing. This is, I'm well excited for you. Yeah, that's brilliant. Well, you sort of, it's nice for you to tie up this, what has essentially been a sort of going over, a sort of going over, a just watching you to sort of look on the internet. I'm looking at your tour dates! That's fucking mesmerizing.

I'm sorry for looking at your tour that we're trying to promote. Yeah, actually. Yeah, fucking idiot. Do you do that on Steve Wright? What's that piece of paper you're looking at Steve? Oh yeah, we can change this up. Do you want more energy? Is that what you want? Right, see it later. Alright, thanks, good luck with your fucking toy, Prick. Yeah.

At least you don't have to split the fucking O2 and off with him. Right, see you later. All right, see you later. Bye bye. Bye bye. Bye bye.
