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.

I was thinking more like Australian, Otis? Would you? There's no Australian, I don't know why. Well, you go, I'm not going to fight back by doing a Caribbean accent. No, Rob, it's Caribbean. Let me give you an idea of what it would sound like in a Caribbean. Yeah, yeah, you're not. you're calling your palo Otis on the acoan accent accent, Josh. thian accent, Josh. thian accent, Josh, Josh, Josh, Josh, Josh, thian, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. tho, I, I, I, I, I'd, I'd, I'd, I'd, I'd. tho, I'd, I'd. tho, I'd. there's. there's, I'd. there, I'd.

If I was on the Caribbean, I'd, I'd probably affect a more posh British accent, if anything.

Go and then. I'm not saying. Otis. Otis. Otis, De Angelo is Italian, presumably, is it? Love it. Love it. Love the podcast, started listening in lockdown and cracking up as was a teacher and finding it too funny with everyone's struggles. Cheers mate. Thank you for the podcast. Daisy, Oakley

from Lee Green. Lee Green. Oh, near me. Yeah, Louisham, but she's just moved to the Kent Coast. Oh lovely stuff. What about? Did she say? No. But her emails here if you want to email her. Well, it'd be weird, wouldn't it? If I just emailed people just because they grew up near me. We were looking at buying in Lee Green when we were trying to buy a house, but you couldn't get fucking anything. It's so expensive and Lee Green's all right, but it ain't like... Lee Green is more of a Lewisham name than though, just Angelo, isn't it? What's your name? LeGree?

LeGree? Yeah, and then that's why we moved to Bromley because for the same price, I could get a drive and a garden. Did we used to have an edge, Rob? When we were young Whipper Snappers on Mott the Week. Well, yeah, I still don't think we had an edge. Making fun of Ed Miliband. Me, Hugh Dennis, talking about a picture of Eric Pickles. Yeah, but then I think Chris, Chris, Chris, Chris, Chris, Chris, Chris, Chris, Chris, Chris, Chris, Chris, Chris, Chris, Chris, Chris, Chris, Chris, Chris, Chris, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, to to to to to to to to to to to their, their, their, their, their, their, to to to to to to th, th, th, th, th, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, thi, thi, thi. We's thi. thi. tooooooooooooooooom. Wea, too. Wea, to to to to to their, th and me, if you had to pick someone with an edge, it's me. Yeah, yeah. I love Chris, lovely guy, but he's not an edge lord.

I like Chris, but I couldn't believe he was still wearing boot cut in 2012. The boot cut, all I remember about starting comedy was the boot cuts in my way. Oh my gosh. Get those bootcuts out my way andthink they actually wore, I don't think they were bootcuts. They wore me. No, I think I had like one pair years ago but I think actually do wear them with boots, hence the cut. But no I never wore them I was always a skinny gene generation of gee that was what was popular when I was growing up. Yeah I went boot cut too long. You had boot cut. Yeah I remember because all I remember seeing was the end of your converse, nevertheless. When I think of you, I think of a cardigan in the end of a converse. Fuck here now. Actually the boot cuts were, it was more of a technical art clothing of the

people, I'm not the week because the way they had to march towards that microphone. You needed the extra space between your shin bone. foot so you would swing I was struggling in skinny jeans I couldn't get there in time I was happy not to get there fucking hell I hated that I hated that round are we gonna be them old men that talk about like not the week like old people now go remember the goons show yeah we are we are we are fucking out what a pair of sad old bastards. What has become of me? Yeah, but what's the other option? I don't know, like mooning someone from a bus. Yeah, I mean, that I still think's good fun, but that is, you could get canceled for that.

Would I get canceled if I got photogogarpulling a Mooney? Well, it it depends how it's written isn't it? So this is two angles of it. Josh... There's one angle I don't want. Comedy funny man, Josh Widdickham, Devon's finest was up to hijinks. They don't use it anymore. High jinx after celebrating England's win of the euros by a moon into fans from a passing car. Yeah, farm. Then it depends who else has written it. And they go, 42-year-old father. 41. Whatever. Josh Widdickham revealed his anus

to a crowd of youngsters from a car. Ha ha ha ha ha as he screamed and laughed as he drank booze. Seeing as Josh was sober for two years, close friends have informed us that they're worried about his current behavior and health. Do you think if I was mooning, Rob? It would be more worrying if I hadn't started drinking. Yeah, I think if you just got your ass out and slapped it, I'll in a cup of tea.

He'd probably like, this guy's off the hook. This guy's off the Richter. He's off the chain. Were you a Mooney guy? No, I'm not really a Mooney. I love a Mooney. Yeah. It depends on how Mooney's done

because I think Mooney's an older man is the sag of the bollock can really overshadow the moony to the point where you go, oh there's an arson, there's a disgusting sort of bedraggled, starved chicken hang in there. I told you that happened on holiday, didn't I? What? Was his bloke got out of the swimming pool. My girls were in like the shallow thing just playing around laughing. And then all of a sudden they were just stopped still, staring ahead. And then an old man had got like out of the swimming pool, was facing like, there was nowhere in front, he was like on the edge of the pool area.

So no one could see it's back to the pool. But just whipped his trunks down. So like his arse was out and I'm like, right okay I know it's not your junk but you still just can't get your ass out in front. I know you're facing away but have someone hold a towel and then that was sort of okay but no he wasn't okay but and then he lent down bent down to pull his trouser because he was old and fat his bollukes was hanging down. I heard my daughters go, from the pole. It's just not okay. It's not okay. Not okay. But yeah, moonying.

Why did we get on to moonying? I don't know. Right, we've got loads of correspondence to get through Josh. Yeah, yeah. Okay, let's do it. Let's take this by the quiz till the end? Someone's sent in the parenting hell quiz about the podcast, because we can't remember our anecdotes who've done or things we've spoken about.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. So we asked, if anyone wants to send in a quiz, we'll try and do the quiz. And obviously, people can play along at on a banana skin. I'll tell you what this is turned out as a lovely little recall this is here we go. Hi Rob Josh and Michael love listening to the pod. I've just had a coffee actually I feel I'm flying now. Yeah good good good good I'm back in the game I love listening to the pop especially boomer parenting I always thought I didn't have a to to to to to to to to to to the to the to the to the the to the to the the to the the the to the to the the the the the the the the the the the to the the to the to to to the the to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to their to their 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 tod I tod today.

Iomer Parenting Stories, I always thought I didn't have a story that would qualify for Boomer Parenting until I uncovered some 10 out of 10 childhood boomer related trauma when talking to one of my parent friends recently. I was six years

old when my dad surprised me with a trip to Disneyland Paris. Wow. I was so excited and the start of the trip was great, but like any six-year-old, some of the rides rides, some rides, some rides, some rides, some rides, th. rides, some rides, th. rides, the rides, th. rides, the rides, th. the rides, th. Some rides, thr-and, the rides, thr-a, the rides, th. th. the rides, th. 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, and, and, and, and, and, to, to, the, the, the, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their. to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, trip was great, but like any six-year-old, some of the rides were a bit intense, so naturally we did spend most of our time on It's a Small World. Eventually, however, Dad must have lost interest in these rides and decided to head to Thunder Mountain. He sat me on top of a bin that was on the today and told me to stay there until he was back. No. I thought he was going to take her on Thunder, man. He's left her on a bin, Josh. She's six. He put his six shot on a bin and said I'll be back in a bit. He then proceeded to walk on a bin, to walk out of sight, queue up for the ride and go on it by himself. I can't remember being that bothered by it, but knowing the queue times in Disneyland, he must have been forgotten their t... times. ti. ti. ti. ti. ti. ti. to. to. to. to be. to be. to be. to be. to be. t. t. to be. to be. t. to be. to bea, t. to bea, thi. thi. to bea, thi. thi. their, their, their. their.

I like to think that most parents would have seen me on their return, realize their mistake, and not done it again. But not for Boomer Dad.

He saw it as proof that his method worked and proceeded to head to his next ride. No. Fuck off. That's mad. He did the same method. I brought this up to my dad recently who confessed to leaving me and his right to reply in true Buma Form was, oh I guess I'm just, oh here we go, a bit of gaslight in blame. Oh I guess I'm just the worst dad in the world then, aren't I?

Yeah. Not the worst, but it still doesn't make. No, no, it's still not okay. the fr still bad. I didn't get caught by the shop owner and go, Oh, I suppose I'm the worst burglar in the world, am I? No, you just burgled me. Give me my fucking sandwich back and I won't ring the police.

Exactly. Anyway, this is from Matiled up from Molden, the the the the the the the the the the th is is is is mental. Well I understand the concept. The headline is not the concept of a theme park is what the dad's done, isn't it? Yeah, that's what I mean. No, I understand the concept of what he's done. It doesn't matter whether I'm a theme part guy or not. I think that what he's done. Well no, no, because there is a way around this, Josh. I'll go on. So there is a way there is a way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way. the way the way the way the way the way the way their their the the the their their their their their is a their is a their their their their their their their their their is their is their is their is their is their their their their their their their their is a their their their their is a their their is a their is a their is a their. their is a their is a their is a their is a their their their their th. th. the. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. the the the's too small for the ride, or the child is too small. So what you do is two of you queue up in the normal queue and then when you get there, one of the parents stands to the side with the baby. Yeah, the other goes on. One person goes on. The ride and then that one gets off, takes a baby, that one gets on, but you sort sort, so so so sort, so so sort, so sort, so, so, so you, so you, so you, so you, so you, so you, so you, so you, so you, the the the the the the the their, their, their, tho, thrown, and thrown, and thrown, and thee, and their, and thee, and thee, and thee, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the normal, the normal, the the normal, the the normal, the normal, the normal, the the the the the normal, the the the the the the, single rider lines, yeah, right, where you basically go straight in because you fill the gap so you can get on if you want to go on on your own or not in a group, okay? Sad come no. Surely, surely, he could have cut up in the single rider line, yeah, and when he got to the front to say, hey, she's not going on, can she stand with you while I do the ride? Yeah, because it's not like, you know the bit where it says you've got to be 1.1 meters or whatever?

Yeah. It's not like you go, you're not allowed beyond that sign. You're allowed beyond that sign. You're allowed on the ride. You're allowed to be on the ride. You're allowed to queue up. Because also you can queue up in a the to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, the, to, to, to, to, the, the, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, to, to, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, to, and, the, and, the, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to go, to go, to go, to go, to, to, to go, to, to, to. No, not okay. That is a thing where, when you have kids, it does make you reflect on your life and how you feel about things, because she'll have children now and be like, oh yeah, we're going into a thing park next week.

So what do you do when they're going to write? Do we just leave them on the bin. Okay, Matilda. Do you want another boom? Should I do you slipping on a banana peel and then you do more? Give me a quick slip. Good day, lads. We've had quite a lot of slip on bananas. Yeah. Rob, regarding the segment where your daughter pulled you up for throwing a banana peel out

the window. Yeah. I think what you're looking for is the old hiking, stroke adventurers saying. If it doesn't grow there, it doesn't go there. If it's native to the area or close enough, then you're good to go. Anything else should be disposed of appropriately. So they've got Apple Corr in Kent, tick. Right.

I don't know what lime ball is, but I agree with that. Yeah. Cheers, Chris in Perth, Australia. Why does it make a difference whether it grows there or not? Invasive, sort of nutrients and stuff. Oh, I see. Yeah. But what about stuff that's in sort of fertilizer and plant food stuff that's not, the same, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, the, thi, that, that, that, that, that, that, 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, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi.. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi, thi, thi, the, the, the, the, the thi. the thi. toooooes. the tooes, thi. toooooooooooooooooes. toe. that's, thi. that's putting to the ground isn't it? Yeah, so is that not compost? Yeah, I don't know. But if the saying is if it doesn't grow there, he doesn't go there.

Doesn't go there. Okay, well Joe what, that is the last banana pill I'm throwing out the window. But if you're doing magic mushrooms and you want to dispose them little weird mushrooms? Are they the bad one? I think you have to boil up magic mushrooms or dry them. I'm not sure whether you can just eat them. But then I worry my dogs are eating them and that's why they're so mental? No, I don't think your dogs are high on magic mushrooms. Okay. They're just annoying. the chin and move forward Josh. Yeah. Do you want a weird kids hobbies and interests? Yeah go on. Hi Rob and Josh feel free to send some in for these different segments. I'm just listening to the episode we talked about weird hobbies or interests and it reminded me of when I used to babysit for a family

down the road. The first time I looked after the kids I was given the standard instructions by the parents before they left. their 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.

So come bedtime, I follow the instructions to the letter. That's an exciting, tantalizing way to write a letter as Nick's. We know there's going to be a reveal. It's a beautiful set up to a payoff. Obviously this babysitter, Belinda, Lewis who's emailed in Belinda she's not had a peak either so she is just as a surprise to her as it is to us when

she presses play. How old is the kid? Five or six. So I follow the instructions to the letter. I put them to bed and I pressed play on the CD player. So far so normal except when I pressed play on the CD player as I left the room I was confronted by the booming voice of Shaggy. Mr. Bombastic to be exact. Turns out the kid only slept listening to Shaggy's album every night and wouldn't sleep without these dulcetters. Mr's miserable and bustic. That is mad. He's not even soothing, isn't it? It's so not sleeping music.

Or neither's Mamma Mia really, but we had that for two years in our house. Fucking hell, that done my nut in that. We might be going to the Mamma Mia experience at the O2. Have you seen that? No. I'm just worried they're going to fall asleep the to fall to fall the to fall to fall their to fall to fall they're going to fall they're going to fall to fall to fall to fall to fall to fall to their to to to the Mamma Mia experience at the O2. Have you seen that? No. I'm just worried they're going to fall asleep. Ha ha ha ha ha. Have you taken them to see Abba Voyage? No, I haven't done Abba Voyage.

Oh, I'd love it, Rob. It's great. The one at the O2's like from the film, so it's like a Greek to Vernanaverna' with with with with. Do you want an instant regret story? Oh yeah, yeah, I've got someone who slipped on a banana peel as well. Oh yes, please. Give me that and I'll give you some instant regret. Hi Robbush Josh and Michael. I was listening to the podcast where Rob throw a banana skin in a bush and Josh said no one slips on a banana peel. Well, dot, dot, dot, dot, I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I.

Long story short, the police and ambulance called the road shut down, and as we were waiting for an ambulance drive, the police officer telling me, off dad jokes. He then says, you slipped on a banana skin. And I'm like, yeah, ha ha, good joke. He then says, no, look, you actually slipped on a banana.

I was so embarrassed I told everyone I slipped on a slippery road and operation metal rod inserted on my 30th birthday, and my 30th birthday ruined. Oh, both myself and my partner, avid listeners. No kids, but still love the pod. Keep making us laugh every week, Nicola and her fiancé, Michelle. I think that might have been a sort of calmer for humble bragging and they went to a mischienstared restaurant. Yeah, too right.

Unnecessary information there. I hope that the miscene styled restaurant was serving a banana-based dish and throwing the bananas the bananas the bananas, the bananas they. Well I'm sorry, that sounds very horrible and painful, but what a great story and you're stronger because of it. Well your leg isn't. Well it's got metal in it, it's got metal in it.

Oh, did you tell you us do yak hulk down in competition? Did you?

Did you? Did you? ? Did you? How many did you have? As many as you could, just with the other people, just stuff would break and then it would just be thrown away so it would eat and drink it. My mate, um, downed, we was trying to see who could get the worst brain freeze, so he downed a bottle of fridge milkshake in a freezer. Ha ha ha!

Have I told you about this? No, I don't know. So I worked at the petrol station for a summer in Devon.

So I'd do some work at the petrol station, but some of my job was to go and get the stuff from the supermarket to stop the petrol station. Oh yeah, no, no, I think you've mentioned this before. I' I've mentioned it. Well, I've really got a story, I was just going to tell you about my summer, but if I've talked about it before. No, we know you did it, but was there a story about when you did it? Well, just what my job was. So I'd be given a cage, like one of those wheelie cages. And it was the only one in the UK where the petrol station wasn't on the same site asupera to too the the the supermarket the supermarket... It's like a trip through town carrying the stock for the fat choice taste. How far? And like a way, a bit up a hill. How many minutes? Five? Right, okay so yeah close but not

that yeah but you are pushing a massive cage. You're going across a roundabout and you're going A 17 year old Josh Rinnig. I saw a kid I felt so sorry for about 8, 15 minutes past 8 this morning, sat getting a driving lesson and he looks like he didn't even have pubes. He looked so young and I was like, oh God it's so hard being that age. And I was just picturlicum with a cage of food on a roundabout. I was 19 so I just just grabbed a pubs. Yeah. One pit, one stuff done your dick.

But the people in the supermarket didn't want you to take their stuff. Right, because they were like, that's our stock. Yeah. Basically you had to kind of sneak it out. So I was like the most hated man in the supermarket. Because all the fucking garage boys come here. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. th. thi, thi, the, the, the, the, thoom, thoom, the, tho, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, their, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, their, their, th.

Because all the fucking garage boys come here. Yeah, yeah, to take all of our fucking tangos. We've just put them on the shelves and now you're taking them off to take it to the garage. Oh, so you used to take them off the sloom. If they're more likely to sell in the garage.

the garage. And your name is? Josh. But we've only got eight tangos left? Well, I'm taking six, you've still got two. Our sales are gonna be affected and that's not gone through. You've not. One big company, we're one big happy family. No, but no, but we've run that out. Too scanning them out now, are you? So it's essentially a sale. You've sold them to the petrol station. When do you come?

It seems like you come at different times. In the morning I come for the fresh goods, in the afternoon I come for what was described as ambient food. Yes, I used to call it ambient to show someone, it was so cold in provisions, you'd have to go to Ambient to show someone where pasta was because I can't fucking read. Ambient just means not in a fridge. Let's just say, it's just food. I'd be so hot on Ambien in my big provisions, Felice.

Yeah, gloves on, sweating. Yeah, it's just down there the rice, yeah fucking probably. You thick bastard. Oh so that was a stressful for having to explain that to new people that you haven't taken all their tank and goes. It was awful. What was the biggest seller for you in a garage? Fags. Fair enough. And Betdrall. Not together. Don't like it on fork. A phone's not allowed on forkles. What's the rule with that? That's dangerous as well, isn't it? I don't know. I've got that in my head, but I don't know whether it's still a thing. Right, okay. Right, I've got instant regret stories. You want one? Yeah, go on. Hi boys. Following a recent chat about things you have instantly regretted doing parenting-wise, I have three childrenthe dreaded knits until my eldest son came home one day from reception and I noticed something in his

very thick long hair. Yes, knits. Hundreds of the little bastards. Yeah, great. Without thought and for fear of them getting in mine or daughter's very thick long hair, I acted in a moment of madness and used my husband's hair clippers and shaved his head. Oh my word. Oh my word. The instant regret I felt when I realized my four-year-old looked like a cross between the kid from Mrs England and 11 from... She's done it to zero!

What? She did it like completely off, not like a one or a two. Yeah, well, it's not going to help with Knits if it's a one or a two. Roll on another year, and th and during, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, th th, th, th, th, th, th th, th th th th th th th th th th th tho, I looked thro thro' thro' th th th th th th the th looked looked looked looked looked looked looked, looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked looked, to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to th, and th, and to to to thi, and to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to at, at, I was, at, I was, at, I was, the the the the the the lockdown I woke up to the sound of clippers and the same child has decided to shave his own head in his two-year-old brother's hair. Oh my word. The words, let's do mummy next will forever halt me. He managed to take a chunk from both their hair so so had to have skin the heads. Wow. Thank you to have escape the clippers, love the podloosu from Leeds. That is meant cutting his air off. Just wash it and comb it. Yeah, exactly.

But a red went. It keeps going around our school. But it's more than cleaner hair, isn't it? Clean hair? Is that right? They love clean hair. Yeah, that's what they say, isn't it? Yeah, that's what they say, isn't it? Yeah, because there was someone on 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 th. th. th.

We've got the stuff. How many times did you do it, the wash? And one of the parents supplied, we did it for, and I thought, I'm keeping my head down here. How many times did it, weigh to it? Rob. It just says once. Because your kids have knit? Well, actually they did did and then we did it once and they're gone. And they went. Maybe there's just been a bit, you know, careful. Fair play to him, Rob. Fair play to him. We've not had nits in our school because we're not disgusting Londoners.

The beautiful countryside of Kent, where our hair has space to breathe. Not clinging on to each other so nits can spread in the streets of London town. Anyway, am I a modern boomer, Josh, answer this question for Jess in Wolfhamstow? Dear Josh and Rob and Michael, I have a potential modern day boomer story for you. My soon to be ex-husband at this rate, awkward, okay, husband, my husband. At this rate. And I split pick up and drop-offs for our one-year-old son and four-year-old daughter. I do all the drop-offs to the nursery and he does all the pickups. The nursery closes at 6.30 and he usually makes it there by the skin of his teeth. I know this because the nursery has an app that tells me when they've been collected. One evening I was still in the office at 630 when I realized I hadn't had my usual notification that they'd been picked up.

Panicking, I called him. I knew that early in the day he'd been out on his motorbike for meetings in town and would be rushing to get home in the car to pick them up. He picked up the call saying that he had collected them. He sounded odd on the call. as if he still had his motorbike helmet on. Oh dear. On probing further, I had caught him modern-day boomerring. Oh no. He had been too late to go and get the car, so instead went to the nurse on his motorbike, he'd today, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Instead, went to the nurse on his motorbikek What? Called a taxi to meet him there. Called the kids in a taxi then he followed them home on his motorbike. With them in the cab alone. Do you know what, that is better than the option we were all thinking? That is much better than what we were fearing. I mean, one of the children is one. And I'm assuming that this cab that he called last minute definitely had the right cast eats, obviously. That is incredible. It turns out, he's done this a couple of times before Josh. It just so happens that I caught him this time.

Please tell me I'm not the only one who thinks this is mad. Thank you for the twice weekly laughs. I love your show just from Orfaster. Now, Josh, I think that's actually not too bad if they're older, but I think a one-year-old's a bit extreme, now. Would you, if you're the cabbie, take that? I mean, it's a weird request, isn't it? Is he, like, in vision of the kids? Like, is he riding next's behind the cab. So they can't even see him. So what's the

cab be doing if the baby starts crying? Just driving faster I imagine. If he's only a five-minute trip anyway but that's a bit of boomer parenting there. That is incredible. That is incredible. Lies you tell children? This is got some great stuff here. And then we do the quiz. Yeah. Hi Robert Josh. Wanted to get your to the th. th. the th. to to th. the th. to get the th. to get th. the to get the th. to get the th. th. th. to get the the th. to get to get the to get thoom. thoom. tho. thoom. thoom. thoom. thoom. thoom. thoom. th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the the. the. the. t. t. toda. toda. toda. today. today. today. today. today. the the the the the quiz in a bit. Still got the quiz. Yeah. Hi, Robert Josh. Wanted to get your thoughts on this brilliant, but potentially future-booming parented hack my friend told me about. His boy is in the first year of primary school. He hated it to begin with, and it was a constant battle to get him up to go to school each the house the house the house the house the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the to the to the to the the to to the to to the to to to to to tooes tooge tooomb told his son that if he gets up to go to school each morning without a fuss, then he can

stay home two days of the week as a reward. Two days of the week as a reward. During the week if he starts to behave, he reminds him of his deal and that gets him to behave. His son now believes he gets to skip school on Saturday and Sunday because he behaves himself and he's not to tell any of his friends as they'll only get upset and jealous. That's clever because I was about to say. But that's the tricky part there, that end bit. Because it means he can't play with his friends at the weekend. Yeah, because he assumes they're at school.

Yeah, actually it's a genius because he's getting out of play play play play play play play play. But I do think your child's going to have some proper problems unless you'd come clean. It's in his first year, though. He's in reception, yeah. But you've boxed yourself in really there because you've got to admit you're lying or... Yeah. Do you know what? The good news is? The school has brought in a policy based on my idea. Yes, and I just have to tell them who's been good on it, but luckily all your friends have been good as well. Yeah. So basically get all the other parents in the school to agree. So far as what's tree, but I can't help thinking there's a boom of parenting scenario heading

down the tracks. Yes, I agree. Emma Troop that was, ththe urinal, this isn't really parenting but fine, put a math's problem in your head but that's difficult but achievable. I tend to go with something like 37 times 8. Thinking about it for 5 to 10 seconds or no, it's enough to distract you and you'll be pissing like a resource in no time. That's a fucking easy one. That's a fucking. That's a thirty. That's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a th. th. thi. thi. thi. that's a thi. that's a thi. that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that. I'd do 8 times 10 3 times. So 80 plus 80. What? Under the 60? God fuck. 8 times 10, 3 times. That's so confusing. 140? Yeah. Plus 7, 8s. Whatever that is. Before I know, I'm covered in piss. 56? Who knows? That's too too odd. But if he's getting a pissing or in pissing. Good on them. Do I? th. Do I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I that. Do I that. Do I that. Do I that. Do I that I that. Do I that I that. Do I that that that is that is that is that.

That's too odd. But if he's getting her pissing or in pissing, good on them. Do I need a piss now?

I'm not sure. I've found a hack to stop my toddler tantrumming. I've just pissed myself actually. It does work. Oh, that's good. Yeah, that's good. You can put that that to be. I. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. to be. thea. to. to. thea. to. to. tode. to. to. thea. 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.

I they don't. I they don't. I they don't they don't they don't th. I th. I fucking selling water? Oh, I know. Should we bring out some water? I think we're probably 40 years too late on that one. There's always new waters, isn't there? Canna water. That's a new one.

I like it in a can. Me too. God, I'm boring old prick. I'm so burned out and tired. You just had a holiday? I know. But do you know why it is? Because when you go away, everything just compacts for about a month afterwards. Yeah, you can't hand over. I've got a list of stuff to do today and it's so long.

Give us a brief rundown of it. Contact odd jobs, ma'am. Not for a radio yet. No, the garden water system is broken. Also, we've got various other things that we can throw at him if he's going to come here for that. Slugs, slugs back? They'll add that to my fucking list. How's a goo in the basement? Yeah, that's sorted.

That's good. What was his on the basement? Yeah, that's sorted. That's good. Yeah. What was his on the best, Josh? Bill just coming around. What for? You get your kitchen done? Was that not happening anymore? That is going to happen. Yeah.

Doing various things, but he's got a day to just, he wants to check out the happen. Work out. You ain't working out to that I don't think. Do some semblance of work before my gigs tonight just so that they're worth doing. Is that how you've written it on to do this? No, I've written stand up. Book a haircut. I need to do that actually. Oh, this is the worst. This is how bad my life's got. My car when I turn it on warms me about three separate things that need doing. What ones? A tire. Yeah. The oil being low. Yeah. And another one that I can't even remember. Okay. So you need to get that solid. Need to get that solid. Emows, which have got things in them, like...

Yeah, okay. Here we go. Hey, Robin Josh, loving your podcast, not sure if this is a boomer story or I have just a father with a six sense of humor. When we were younger, if me and my brothers wanted money for sweet to the, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, and, and, th, th, th, th, th.... thoom. th. th. thoom, thin, thin, th. th. th. th. to, to, to, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. th. th. th. th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. th, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, 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 thooomeome thoom. the end of a 9-volt battery, what?

I do feel like my parents would go, yeah, put your tongue on that. But I think my dad would do that. But he would never force me to do it. He'd get me, let me have sweet. Do you do it as I'll do that if you want to stupid. It's horrible. but doing it for sweets. A battery lick the inside of a freezer or eating a spoonful of things.

Do you want school picture fail, Rob? Yes, please. Then we'll do the quiz. When my husband picked up our daughter from play school, all the staff were giggling. The children had been drawing their daddy's favorite thing on t-shirts for Father's Day presents. Lots of football's points of beer were the main theme. Our daughter, however, had drawn me naked. I'm not. Was any sort of content? Thanks, Anna. They were drawing their father's favorite things for the father's day.

Why did she have to be naked? Is that just because she forgot to do the clothes? or has he audibly said that his favorite thing is his wife naked? I don't know. I don't know. She she. She she.

I was on a bed on the floor with her brother on the sofa next to me. Suddenly I was awoken to the noise as someone being sick and soon realized her brother was in fact throwing up all over me. It went in my face, my hair, my bed. So I had to say I was absolutely beside myself and the sleepover mom had to bath me at 3 a.m. in the morning.

Oh my God. All I wanted was my mom to come and collect me, but she didn't want to wake my mom up so so I had to go back up too. What? They've obviously got a bug. Left with a phobia of sick and didn't sleep over anywhere else for years after. Oh no. Oh my gosh. Love the pod, Emily from Southend, that is horrible. I think you're well within your rights to say no, you do find my mother. Yeah, I'd want to be woken up at 3 a.m. If my daughter had gone through that. I'd they they they they they they 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'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're they're they're they're their.

I'm so also as well just from a point of like they're obviously ill the kids. Yeah. And now it's in your child's hair of mouth. If I received that call, I can't believe you called me. I can't believe you've called me. I'm really, this really feels out of order. Can you not have to wait, their their to wait, their, their, their, to wait, their, their, their, their, their, their, 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, their, their, obviously, their, obviously, their, obviously, obviously, obviously, obviously, obviously, obviously, their, obviously, their, their, obviously, obviously, their, their, their, their. their, their. their. their. their. their. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thoo. their, obviously, obviously, obviously, obviously, their, obviously, their, obviously, their, obviously, obviously, obviously,'ve woken me in the middle of the night just because my daughter's been sick. Eight or nine I'm sure the kid could bath themselves. Yeah but I suppose. We don't want to just leave a child in the butt. Oh God it's

so. It's so. And also it's like you're washing sick out of hair that's quite difficult to get out I imagine. Do you know a child's half awake crying someone else's house covered in sick. Quiz? Yeah.

I enjoyed it. Really good. You've got really be kicking yourself for the Hanson one. Well, I just didn't know any of it, did I? those handsome guys. It's all over the wings for and in for the small business shoutout section for a while now. What's that mean? My business task her is a platform for homeowners to book and pay trades women online. I came up the idea at the end of 2020 when we were having work done on a house, I'd find

contact and chase trades. Men and they would arrive and always start talking to my husband who's now my co-founder, not me. I realize the idea of booking a tradeswoman hadn't even crossed my mind. TaskHer is currently live in London with plans to expand nationwide. We offer fully verified, qualified and experienced female electricians, heating and gas engineers and plumbers for a huge range of jobs that are totally bookable online at task her. Co. A lot of podcasts, as a mother to a one-year-old and a four-year-old, I imagine it's going to be relatable for a long time yet, thank you, Anna.

If you are in the market for a female trace person. I imagine if you are a single woman living alone you may be more comfortable having a woman come to do electric as opposed to a man, would you think? Yeah? Good luck to it, to ask her. I don't know with this counter entertainment, Rob. But I do need a piss. Should I go and try and have a piss while I think about some? Yes, but do you struggle to piss in your own toilet as well? No, but I think I would if I knew that the result was going to be broadcast on a podcast. Could we still have you miced up while you do it? Yeah, it's the next room so I could take the mic as far as I can. Right, okay.

And then keep the headphones in maybe. If my cleaner walks in at this point, it's game. Oh, wait. Why, they just pissing a bucket in your room? But I'm not doing it. in the bucket. Do you know what I think that would have been entertainment? I do but you've got to draw the line somewhere just got another email. The worry in your eyes when you get an email what was that one about? Is that your neck going as well there little nick-click? No my neck's good now. Oh is it oh that's good.

All right well do you want to do a small business and that they'll wrap up? My name's a small business and a business and a business and a business 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's that's that's that's that's 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 their their their their their their their their their th. th. th. I will will will will. th. I will. try. try. try. try. I will. th. th. th. I's th. their their their theiring on kids trampolines. Okay. Our business is called Birds Away. Sorry, it's not, is that, I don't want to excuse us, pun, poo poo this business. Is that in big demand? Well we'll see. After going through years of continuing having to jet wash the trampoline down from loose bowed bird mess before our two young boys wanted to bounce, we designed a tramplaintha the the the the the the the the the tree the tree than. taplion taplion than. taplion than. taplion tm. tmse tmse tmse to tmse tape to bea to bea tape tape to bea-n. to bea. to bea. to bea. to bea. to bea. to bea. tap. tap. tap. tap. Weato bounce. We designed a trampoline trim to deter birds from landing and using it as a public toilet. Our product comes in strips of one meter length plastic spikes that easily attach and we're happy to 100% confirm they are flexible enough so not to hurt any bird or child, but firm enough to stop any bird from landing. They were an instant success,

resulted in seeing not one poop splattering since. It's now been three years. We decided to set up our business over lockdown to help other parents who are facing the same mission pre-balance. We now have over 700 positive reviews back from very grateful customers. It's a huge success. I can't tell you how much we would appreciate a shout-out for W.WW-Wirds away.co.. UK. It's perhaps something that parents might not even think to search for. Thank you. Absolutely loving the podcast. Best wishes, Gemma Waters. Do you know what I stand corrected? I'll just google it. There's a lot of people with bird shit on their trampolines. There's you go. I'm living a blessed life. Exactly. It's not happening to

us. to the trampoline's absolutely covered on bird shit if you Google it will. If you're a trampoline, bird. This is mental. I've got no idea this was a thing. There you go. Say a little spike on it, look at that. Look at that, Rob. Have you got a trampoline at a taplein' the tape? tape? t new place. What's the garden though? I'm not moving Rob. Stick at the end of the list.

I buy some birds away and then I'll get the trampoline at a later day. Yeah, they'd do a quick workout. But I pop it on the car. I think you should keep driving the car to see how many lights you can get on it. Oh my God, I forgot to tell you I got another fucking parking ticket for this person who stole on my number plate. Now that, I hate having to do life admin, that life admin would send me over the edge. Like having to do it when it's been my fault is bad enough, but when you're totally blameless and you're having to go through the rigmarole of explaining to the council is not your number plate. And they don't want to know, they just want the council is that your number plate and they don't want to know they just want the money. They just want the money. Do you know about the ambulance driver that got taken to court for speeding? Even though he was on a call? What? Yeah, so he was basically got called speeding and then he was basically got called speed in and then he had to go it and he had to go to call and it obviously got thrown out immediately, but it was like a weird sort of admin thing.

That's mental. All right, I'll see you next time Josh. See you later. Bye.
