Starting point is 00:03:51 Do you know what I mean? Yeah, yeah. How was it good times? No. It was fine, I'm not. don't know what was going on with the slides. It just rained but it was now sunny, but it meant the slides were basically sticky so people getting stuck on the slides due to the... Right. So there was like big slides and there was like parents whose genes were just stuck and they were having to shimmy down the slides with their children in their laps.
Starting point is 00:04:19 The weather's been an absolute disgrace. It was like red-hot summer for a week, then it's like it's sunny then it rains and it's sunny then it rains. It is depressing. I just want to have a barbecue Josh. Yeah. Because you mean go on holiday like you go somewhere like Spain. You go out for the day you like you look out the window and you go like it's hot I wear shaltz and then that's that's all your clothing and weather decisions and discussions for the whole day. And I know we get sugged off for talking about the weather. Do we? Yeah. You know that, don't you? On this podcast? No, in this country. Oh, right. Sir, I thought it was like, bloody I don't listen to that podcast.
Starting point is 00:04:57 I always talk about the bloody weather't we? It's a cliche. But that's because we've got weather. Got bloody loads of it, mate. That's what I mean like why would you talk about in LA but we've got different weather's? I like different weather's but I just wish they were more split up. You've changed you. He was moaned about the sticky slide a minute ago. Well, sticky slide shouldn't be an issue. No. Any other parenting you want to get their to toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. to be to be to be the to be to be the to be the to be to be the to be the weather their to be their their to be their the weather their their their their their weather their weather. their their their their their their their their their different.

I've got loads of correspondence you haven't got through. Oh if I ever tell my son I love him he says that he loves his mom which does my head in. So you pretend to be your son I love mommy. Oh that is bad. That hurt me. That hurt me. This is role play with you. And so he just says I love mommy but like to wind you up or just... well he knows now that he that he that 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 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 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 th th to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to th tho. He says. He says. He says. He says he just says I love mommy, but like, to wind you up or just...
Starting point is 00:05:47 Well he knows now, doesn't he? They annoy you. Well, I actually try and see the funny side of it now, because at the end of the day is content. The best thing about this podcast really is that everything bad that happens to me is worth something. Well talk about what bad's happening to you. I know this isn't great for listeners, but it looks like you've been burgled behind you. It looks awful. What's happened at your tables everywhere? There's stuff on the floor. There's some work being done in our house.
Starting point is 00:06:18 What, again, it's all in ship shape before it going on the market properly. It's fucking not going on the market. Oh we've had ants. Have I told you we've had ants? We don't say that. People won't buy it. We've got rid of the ants. Oh right you so you had ants? Yeah. Where were the ants? Do you want to see the ants? How? Rose videoed the ants. Okay.

Oh, someone's coming to pick something up later, but I want him to come and get it. Oh yeah, that works for me. I've done that. That sounds good, right?
Starting point is 00:06:55 Ants. Oh, you can't really put fucking God. Up the wall? Oh my, oh my god Josh, that is so many ants. Yeah. Oh fuck me. Fucking hell, George! You ever see, I've never seen anyone have ants. We used to have ants.
Starting point is 00:07:20 So basically we'd be to see about one or two in the kitchen and you put a couple stuff down there go. Yeah, I put some things down so we had had to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get the to get to get the to get the the to get the the their their to get 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 the the the tho tho tho tho tho thoo thooooooooooooooooooooooooooooom. to' thooooooooo' their their their to see about one or two in the kitchen and you put a couple stuff down there go. Yeah I put some things down so we had to get a bloke in. Right. I had to get an ant blokein. Was he just ants or did he do other things? Well they're pest control but they did ants. Yeah and he looked at our little things that we put down. Laughed. Well he didn't laugh. Well 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 to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get 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 the the. the the the the the an the the the an the the an the an ant the an ant the an ant thea' the an the an ant here. Yeah, you might as well put a cork in the Titanic. What do you do to get rid of ants? They put stuff down and then it gets rid of the ants. Was this about the time when Rose started messaging us about moving house and the houses she's seen and right move? No it wasn't actually, no, this was this weekend. Right, okay. And so they're 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 they're they're they're they're they're. And so they all gone now the ants? Yeah. Yeah. That was a lot
Starting point is 00:08:05 of ants, Josh. Can I be honest? You're itchy. You're itchy. I've got it. I've got it. I was so prepared to be underwhelmed. Yeah, well, you know, you've worked with me a long time. I know. I'm itchy. You know when you had roses, videotaped. There were so many of them. John. the th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I was that. I was that that that that that that that that that that that that that the the the the that that that that the the the the ants. I was so the ants. I was so the ants. I've the ants. I've the ants. I've the ants. I've the ants. I've the ants. I've the ants. I the ants. I the ants. I the the the the the the the the th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I was th. I was th. I was th. I was th. I was that th. I was that that that that's. I was that that's. I've that that's. I've that's. I've th itchy. I've th. I've th. I've th. I've th. a long time. You know when you had roses, videotape, the ants, videotaped? For you've been framed? Yeah, and I was like, oh, whatever, I thought, okay, I'm prepared to go into WhatsApp. Watch two ants. Sort out a couple of messages first to make it worse my while. What? What? I feel like ants squinting! That was fucking loads of ants. If that was in my house, I'd ring Lou and go, Lou, there's fucking loads of ants. Yeah, what would you have done?
Starting point is 00:08:50 Immediately called a man. Yeah, yeah. I would have got out and you'd call out. I'd have got a man. Let's go out. Let's go out. It makes you itchy thinking about the ants. It does, did it? Anyway. What have I got? We've got a fox that walks through our garden that my dogs chase.
Starting point is 00:09:05 I tell what something. Where we are now, we're getting baby deer? Oh yeah. See the baby deer running about. It's really cute. So I've got loads of the room, Rob. Because of the ants? No, not rid of the
Starting point is 00:09:29 other stuff, which is a fucking table. Oh, that's the middle of the room. So I'm just squeezed in the fucking corner. So what's happening? What are you getting done? Just the stairs sanded, won't it? We're repainting a few a a a a And then we're going to redo the kitchen. Oh yes, you have a little extension on it? Well it is an extension, but we're going to change the kitchen and glass up the end. Oh so you're not really
Starting point is 00:09:54 extending it, you're just changing the configuration, putting glass at the end. Yeah, yeah, get an island. Oh, that'd be nice. Because you've got quite a big table in there is a table going. So we're then going to move the table, I mean, I don't know Rob, this is what happens. So this is an idea of the communication that's going on. So you know when you come into my house, right? Quite traditional Victorians, sort of terraced house. Yeah, and on the left, there's what's happ in a lot of these traditional houses, these Victorian houses is what was what was was was was dining room knocks through into one big room, yeah? Yep. And so we've got a door that would have used to go to the living room and then you go on a bit further, there's another door into what is the same room, two doors into the same room.
Starting point is 00:10:34 That would have been a separate back dining room back in the day of the first game he said they're the worst team in the tournament. So when they then went on a while I think that was enough. He's fired. And they won their group. Yeah, of course they've done brilliately. What had his tape measure out. Yeah. We were in the sitting on that sit. I was like, you're only repainting the sitting room. You don't need tape measure it, do you? And he was like, oh no, no, we're plastering over the door. And I was like, oh what? And it was like, yeah, Rose told me yesterday that she wants to get rid of this to do work. Also, well, a couple of interesting things there. Yeah. You said, I hadn't been told this yet,
Starting point is 00:11:28 which implies there would be no consideration of your opinion involved at all. Yeah, Rob, of course. You've gone so beyond that now you accept that you won't even be asked if you want to do that. But now all you need is to be told what's going gonna happen. Yeah, yeah. And even that's not happening. Do you know what Rob? I can't disagree with any of the words you just said. that's what you say to Rose all the time. Exactly, yeah. So now let's go back a few steps. Do you want the door closed? If it was up to you... Well now it's been explained to me it does make a lot of sense actually. Right. Because that door is never used, because the other door is the door the door the door the door the door the door the door the door the door to to the door to to the door to the door to to the door to the door the door the door the door the door door door the door the door the door to to to to the door to to to to the door to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the word the word the word the word the word. the word. the word. the word. the word. Do the word. Do 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 the word word word word. the word. to the word. the word. the word. the the word. th. the tho tho thoo tho tho tho tho the word. tho the the thooo the word. the word. the word. the the word. to to been explained to me it does make a lot of sense actually. Right. Because that door is never used because the other door is used. Yeah. But it means that you have to leave this gap for the door.
Starting point is 00:12:11 Whereas if it turns into wall you could have a longer sofa and it will create more space. I'm all for a bit. It's quite funny that you don't even know. When he first explained why we were getting rid of the door. I didn't know this sofa theory because Rose knows about stuff like this. So I was thinking, why would you swap a door for some wall? What is the advantage of this? Don't talk about the sofa theory, like it's the Big Bang Theory where if there's more space you can get a bigger sofa, that's not really theory. That's only theory that's just... No, no, no, but I I I I I I I I I I I the the the the only theory. But, I's the the the only theory, I's the the the only theory, I's the the the only theory, I's theory, I's theory, I's theory, I'm, theory, theory, theory, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. that's not only theory that's just isn't it? No no no but I mean I suppose theoretically you could just put a sofa in front of the door but it wouldn't be good it wouldn't look very nice would it? No no no and it's
Starting point is 00:12:50 weird to have a door there you can't open it you can't open it you can't open the door and it was a point yeah yeah exactly and so I thinne so to the the the the so. the the the the the they. the they. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the their one one one one one one one one one their one their their their their their th is th is th is tho. th is th is th is the th is the the their their their their their their their their their their their their their th is is is is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th. th. th. th. th. the. the. the. the. the. the. theeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee tho. the the th I think it's a good decision yeah yeah okay how much do you reckon that's gonna cost I don't think I'm the man to ask what's Adrian said I said you gonna could you price it up for me yeah why you're gonna you're starting to swing a dick around like you're in charge as if you're not even told it's happening never mind in asked if you wanted to do it now you're like oh yeah give me the price I'm you know I I I I I I I I I the price I the price I the price I 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 price I'm the price I'm the price I'm the price I'm to to to to the price I to to to the price I the price I the price I the price I the price I the price I the price I the price I the price I the price I the price I the price I the price I the price I the price I the price I the price I 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 thr the th the I'm to th to to th to to to tho to the I'm th thr the the the the the th needed to say something like that to get a feelful. You're like Bruce Willis in six cents. Are you sure you're alive? He was wandering around this house at Rosie. Rosie's just doing up. One day you'll go to a wall tribe, it'll be all Adrian's clothes. That'll be the big reveal.
Starting point is 00:13:42 Okay, well that's exciting though, isn't it? What, getting rid of a door? Is it? I don't know how exciting that is. It's sort of like fun money to be spent, is it getting rid of a door? No, no, it feels like you're paying to lose something in a way, doesn't it? Yeah, like, it's like, if you spend money on like a new sofa or new tele it's like, oh I'm not looking forward to that bit of wall. Yeah, we've got more wall. They go, oh you know like in some it goes, oh, they'll finish on the bathroom this

Oh that's nice that's good. Right should we get through some correspondence? Here we go. Hi Robin Josh Josh.

So are you trying to bulk up, lose weight or get a bit of definition, what you're after? I'm just trying to look good. Be happy with myself. Okay, okay, it's fine. I don't know what your aim for.

Starting point is 00:17:05 You look great, Washballed. That's what it's called Washboard? Yeah, it was anything that was in focus on this grainy webcam today. I could do it much sooner. What the tour? I'm much more ready than I thought I would be, Rob. Yeah, I think you always sort of are a bit. So when is the, well, I mean, we're talking, we're talking, we're the, we're, we're, we're, we're, the, the, th, th, ing around the houses that you're going to announce a tour. Next autumn. Next autumn. Yeah. That is a long way off, isn't it? Well, you brought
Starting point is 00:17:29 yours forward, didn't you? Yeah, I was going to start in the spring before I'll start this autumn and actually it's like, I'm at that point where I don't feel ready, but that's because it's not November. thi. they. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. Yeah. Yeah, thi's thi. Yeah, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's a th. It's a th. It's a thi. It's a thi. It's thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. thi. th. thi. th. thi. the other week, and then there was still loads left over that didn't do that. I did an hour the other day and that bits left over. Yeah, so by November. I've got 14 months. You're be bored of it by the time the tour starts. Well, I'm trying that and do one a week to keep your hand in, just don't gig loads, and then...
Starting point is 00:18:06 Tell you what though, it's going to be good when it happens. Fuck here now. I'll ask you the me as blind. But we are both over compensators, Josh, so we need to really in. The last thing me and you will be is lazy if you listen to this podcast will blow your mind. But then this is the most popular thing we do. Yeah, I know. The more relaxed and casual we are, the better we are. Yeah, but we won't learn our fucking lesson, will we?
Starting point is 00:18:35 I'm 40 months to go already got an hour. What annoys me is there'd be people that are really shit strolling out of a crap show not caring. I know. I'm going for next week but you know each of their own but both shows would be great. You must be able to bring it forward a bit. Do you know what? I'm enjoying being chilled and I can just do other stuff and I did think if I get a
Starting point is 00:18:59 load too much stuff I've started the next tour, I'm not. Exactly. Just log it up. Do you know what I'm not going to do? What? It's a show that's too long. So this is my plan. I don't know what people think about this. When you hear about a comedian doing two and a half hours, fucking Nora. So I cannot accept it.
Starting point is 00:19:15 If a show starts at 8 o'clock. 10. Absolutely. I'm actually a quarter to 10. I aim to finish about 22 quarter to 10. And you haven't got support, have you? I don't have support. So I'll go out and do about, I basically do an hour and a half, spread over two halves. So sometimes I'll do 45 break, break, so sometimes I'll do 45 break, break, so sometimes I'll do to calm down and warm up a little bit if they've been busy so I try and do that way I sort of finish it around 20 to 10 and I think especially because most people are 20 30 minutes from the venue if it's like a town somewhere if you're own by 10 you're buzzing and you're yeah oh yeah imagine a show finish at court and you say they're fucking hell I'm a the. I I I I I I I I I I I I I the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th I'm gonna th I'm gonna th I'm gonna th I'm gonna th I'm th I'm th I'm th I'm th I'm th I'm th is th is th is th th th th th th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is I th is I th is I I I I th I I th I I I I I I I I I I I I th I I I I I I I I I th I th I I th is I I the th is I the the th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th th th th th thin thin th thin th th thin th th thin th th thin th th thin th th th th thin th th th thin th th th th thin th th th th to 11 you said they're going to fucking hell mate I've got to get up for work in the morning. I've had a bit of a laugh leave it out.
Starting point is 00:20:05 You don't need too much. You just want absolute brilliance for like the right amount of time. Yeah, I don't know if I can do absolutely brilliance for 90 minutes. So maybe a couple of bits where it drops off or I say what do you do for living mate. Yeah of course. Bit of shit crowd work to pump a bit of energy. Exactly, Rob. Exactly. I was going to say, oh, band saw. That fucking band saw. Nothing I can do about it. You need some soundproofing in the-
Starting point is 00:20:32 Oh, the band saw stopped. Let's go. Do you want some boomerparing, Rob? Yes, please, Josh. Hi, Rob, Josh. I do apologize. Nothing I can do about it. Growing up my dad was always dead set against getting us pets. No matter how much we begged and negotiated, he would not budge. So imagine our surprise when he was collecting us from school one Friday and told us there were two pets waiting for us at home. Well, we were ecstatic. As soon as we got home, we raced to the bathroom
Starting point is 00:21:03 where he'd left the pets whilst collecting us and discovered two large lobsters swimming in the tub. We named them clicky and snappy. No too much of them please. We were six and nine. After the initial shop wore off, we began questioning whether the lobsters were going to live or whether we would now be having showers instead of bars. With a cackle, my dad tells us not to get too attached and that he was setting up their new lodgings in the kitchen. We go downstairs, but all we see is a large pot of water on the stove. I'm sure you've now realized where this was going. After several hours of crying and tantrums, we were sent to bed early while he and the guest dined on clicky and snappy. He still believes that it was hilarious.
Starting point is 00:21:46 I believe this instant is why my younger sister is still a vegan. All the best, Ellen. Well I don't think that's funny. People are weird, aren't they? Josh as well. I've got some school gate shaggers which we absolutely love. Oh, talk to me, yes, please. And also we haven't still haven't done the meme challenge where I'll th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. thi. thi. thi. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. thi. th. th. th. I'm th. I'm th. Well, th. Well, th. Well, th. Well, th. Well, th. Well, th. Well. Well. Well. Well. Well. Well. Well. Well. Well. Well. Well. Well. Well. Well. I. Well. I. Well. I. I. I. I. I. I. I's. I's. I's. I'm. Yeah. Yeah. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm, t. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. t. t. t. t. th. th. I'm. th. I'm... And also, we haven't still haven't done the meme challenge, where I'll play you a meme, you've got to guess what the next one is. Yeah, yeah, okay. Should we try and do that after? Yeah, yeah, yeah, let's do some school gate shaggers. Hey, Rob Josh and Michael, love the podcast, been listening from beginning to the playground and said that.
Starting point is 00:22:27 Oh, this is awful Josh. Your daddy slept over at our house the house night. Oh my God. Nothing like shit in on your own doorstep. Feel free to use your artistic license. Take the piss out of this. That's mental because these kids in the house. Go to a travel lodge or just have a quick one in the car. You can't be sleeping over with the, obviously, I think some of these people want to be cool. Yeah, because they're too scared to tell the person. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:22:55 It was 25 years ago and the same school, there's so many other people to shag out there. Do you think there's something about it that turns these people on? The thought of, it's taboo. It's the worst thing you could possibly do. It's like... It's the worst thing. It's 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 sports day and going behind the tree. Do you know what I mean? It's like... That's mentally never happened. Fucking someone. Having an affair beyond the tree.
Starting point is 00:23:32 It's not shagging. I'm a little smooch, you know. Yeah, you know, like it's like... Sure you get to pick up five minutes early just lazy and they just stood there going, she's alright. Yeah, fucking out. I'll just see if she's keen. I'd bother to actually do anything else. Too tired to go to a club.
Starting point is 00:23:52 Do people go to the club to meet people anymore? Oh, I'm so glad I don't can't be bothered. Single, fine. Single forever? You? No, I'll probably put it about it. Oh yeah? Yeah, why not? Are the gigs?
Starting point is 00:24:11 No, no, if Lou left me, do you know what I'd do? I'd not have a relationship, anything serious until the girls were grown up. Because I feel like... They're already getting used to one step up, th, th, th, to, to, the, to, to, to, to, to, to, th, th, to, to, th, to, to, to, th, the, tho, th, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, th, th, th, th, tho, tho, tho, tho, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thin, tho, thoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, tho, tho, tho we're getting used to one step dad they don't need to step mom as well right? Yeah well there is have a 10 12 years of and then they're at uni and then I can start of actually having proper relationship but I think I could still go out for a drink of people now and again and casual stuff but not anything serious where they meet anyone until they're older I don't think because I just feel like it's such a short period of time I've got with them, but you know, it's easy for me to say that I'm not in the position, but yeah, I think I just probably wouldn't bother anything serious.
Starting point is 00:24:47 Now, because I've been married 10 years, and if Lou were to leave me, I'd be quite happy to be not married for 10 years. You know what I mean? And then go again. But I'm happily married at the moment the moment the moment the moment the moment the moment the moment the moment the moment the moment the moment the moment the moment the moment the moment the moment the moment the moment the moment that the moment th and I th. And I thi and I thi and I thi. And I thi. And I'm thi. And I thi. And I'm thi, and I'm 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 thi. I to thi. I thi.

Yeah, sort of get on with each other when we go out for dates we'd like each other. Sort of get on with each other when we go out of dates. Yeah because I see some couples and I think you to hate each other don't yeah oh my gosh. This is quite palpable. This has gone toxic. If you're a football manager and a club owner, you'd have been mutual agreement. You're Garris Southgate in the England team. Yeah, yeah, basically. Look, it was great. It's not anymore. Let's both move on for the good of us. Let me find these memes. So do you think other people of our age are into these memes, Rob?

Oh, you gotta give him that. Do it? Do it? I've have heard these things. Michael, have you heard that? Yeah, I mean, I'm not across the memes, but I'm amazed you haven't heard that one.

I th yeah yeah if you've done that I'd have hung up you do it back I want no I would yeah yeah yeah what's up yeah and that's from Bobweiser commercial yeah and then that seems into popular culture yeah I understand what popular culture is and how it works yeah so what I'm saying is you are out the loop I am nothing wrong with that but I'm just saying you you are yeah so do you think that's thi that's thi th I th I th I that I that I that I th I that I th I that I th I th I that that thi thi that that thi thi that that thi thi thi thi thi that thi thi thi thi thi that thi thi thi thi that that that that that that that that that's that's that's 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 thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi just saying you are. Yeah, so do you think that's problematic for my life? So the way I look at it is if I'm doing a stand-up or on my radio show on here and I'm
Starting point is 00:31:35 talking about things, if I want to be able to connect with younger people or understand what's going on, then I don't want to be this sort of like a a groo groo groo groo groo groo groo groo groo groo gr gr gr gr gr gr grro gro th. th. th. th. th. th. tho th. thr thi, thi, thi, thi, thrown, thrown, thrown, thi, thi. thi, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. that's that's that's that's that's that's that's throooooooooooooooooooo. So, that being that when we were younger, a 40 year old and you went, what's up? And they didn't know where that was. You'd look at them like, they're insane. But the other side of it is if I'd seen a 45 year old saying, what's up? Yeah, yeah. I'd have gone, you're a fucking loser, mate. I mean, was a terrible example. Everyone that did was up was a complete let's be honest. I was watching Ben Elton to his that. Yeah, yeah, I'd have thought, no, come on.
Starting point is 00:32:12 But even at the time, people that did, they were horrible. They were horrible. Yeah, they were horrible. But I want to be aware of what that is and why, kind of thing. Right, okay, yeah. So that's why I sort of try and be aware of anything that's cropping up. Right, yeah. Hello, it's me, Jessica Knappet and here, ha ha, ha, brand new podcast alert. I've got a new show for you. It's called Perfect Day. And yeah, you've figured out the premise already haven't you because you're
Starting point is 00:32:45 so smart and because it's obvious. Every Thursday I interview a guest about what constitutes their perfect day so if you like hopes and dreams fantasies and sweet memories you're gonna love this stuff. Ah we have got so many lovely, funny, nice people on. You Romesh Ranganathans, your Dolly Alderton's, your Jomalee, Maddox's, Arabella where she's doing it?

Perfect day on all your favorite podcast platforms. I watched a good film about the Game Stop thing. You know when they artificially inflated the price of Game Stopped. Oh yeah. Can't I know it's called dumb, dumb something? It's really good film. the Game Stop thing, you know when they artificially inflated the price of Game Stopped. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:46 I can't know it's called dumb, something. It's really good film about how this guy, a YouTubeer basically was just advising people to buy GameStop and it was going up and up and up and then they earned like 300 million out of it and a hedge fund or thing on Wall Street went bankrupt. Oh really? Yeah, it's quite interesting. 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. It's a th. It's a th. It's a thu.

It's really thumb. It's really thumb. It's really thumb. It's a good, it's quite interesting. Yeah, that's interesting. Anyway, correspondence, back to correspondence. Back to correspondence. I'm obsessed with you are memes. I know. And it's because I've signed out of life. You're too young for that. I haven't consciously taped out. You could only be interested in what you're interested in. Yeah, but you are interested in popular culture. I am interested in popular culture. I am interested in popular culture? I am interested in certain things, popular culture from the 80s. Yeah, no, of your era of it, but then you, at the time he was interested in it then,
Starting point is 00:34:29 so is it nostalgia driven or is it you do, like when you were at that age, you'd just like to know what was going on but it's now you don't like to know what's going on anybody, like the nostalgia. Yeah, then conversely, I'm interested in new music music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music in music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music new music. What's your favorite scissor song? I found her of Glastonbury performance quite boring. And what was your favorite song of the set? Well I only watched about three and then I turned over. Yeah, but you're into new music. Yeah, but not scissor. What the biggest download stream in artists of the year? Yeah, but that's all right. I think the Ray album is incredible if you want me to stick my colors to the of popular music. You just said to be your into new music. Yeah I am I think that I said I'm the headliner of Glastonbury which is one of the biggest artists for young people of the last year. I know but what I'm saying Rob yeah yeah is you go you're into new music do you like
Starting point is 00:35:16 that not really that's not really that we don't know about it. we don't know about it I we we don't we don't we don't know about it I I I I I I I I I I I I I I the the the that that that that we don't we don't we don't we don't know about that I don't know about that I don't know about that I don't know about that I don't know you you don't know know know know know know know know know know about that I don't know know know know know know know know know know know know know know know know know I that's I that's I that's I don't that's I don't know know know know know know know know know know know know know know know know know know I that's I I I I I I I I I I I I that's I I I I I I I I that I that I I that I I I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I don't know about about it I don't know about about about about it I that I don't know about about about about about about it about about about about it about about it about about about about about it about about about about about about it about about about about about about it about about about it. that's I'm about about about about about about about th. th. th. I don't. I don't. I don't enjoy Oppenheimer. I thought we were into new films. What's your favorite Central City song? Well I can tell you that Rob. He's Googling. Rob, I'm not saying I'm into new music for young people. What I mean is you keep track of the things your interest. No, not not at all. You can't call Blur's album new music. I'm not calling Blur's album new music Rob. Sorry God, no I'm only winding you up, Josh. No, I just try to interest him because you are, you love all those, you know, you're into culture. I'm hugely into culture, but I just can't get into social media culture. Yeah, but that is the part of new, so like for example, quickly Kevin is the epitome of that is almost like an old school meme where someone might call a podcast Huck-Tur and where they talk about all the mad memes from the 2020.
Starting point is 00:36:05 I think I'm now interested in the past. Isn't that bad? No, not at all. There's no judgment. It's more just like, I find it interesting because you're so... I'm the king, you're like, the king of, like, niche, the pop culture of a certain period, but it's like you've just, th......... th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi-I. thi-I's, I's, I's like, 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, 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. 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 th th th th th th th th th no, I haven't, because there's various things I'm still letting in. Okay, what's coming in? The New Blur album?
Starting point is 00:36:29 Music? No, not Blur. I like loads of new music. What new music do you like? I think the new Fontaine's D.C. Who the Fontaugh, their fontaine's DC? . who are the Fontaine's DC? They're a Irish band who I'd say are probably, I'd say they're probably quite big now. They closed the park stage at Glastonbury this year. They're very big.
Starting point is 00:36:49 This is their fourth album so they're not that new. And then they are new. 2017 they started. I did get really into the Ray album off she won the Brits. I thought, do you know what I did? I thought I'm going I'm going 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 the th th th th the th th th that that that the that the the th. I'm their that that that the they're they're they're they're they're they're the they're 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. th. th. th. th. th. th. that. that. that. thooooooooooooooo. th. th. thoooooooooooooooooooooo. th. they're they're they're they're this is really good. I basically listen to the new stuff that's on six music Rob. That's what I do. Basically the new stuff on six music. That's what I listen to. But what I mean is I haven't pulled the draw up on that. I'm not just listening to the same music. I don't just read the same books. I don't just watch the same TV. So I watch succession or the barrel all the other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other shit shit shit shit the other the other the other the other shit that everyone watches. Yeah, yeah. But my absolute blind spot is memes. Well, because I suppose really memes is almost taken over from big moments of TV. Totally. There's no such thing as big moments of TV anymore, really.
Starting point is 00:37:42 Well, like, Cat Slayer, you ain't my mother? Exactly. Huge moment, but now it's coming through on social media. The mon like Cat Slayer, you ain't my mother? Exactly. Huge moment but now it's coming through on social media. The monoculture is dead, isn't it, Rob? Where everyone watched the same thing is dead. It's just loads of little tiny tribes. Apart from the probably eight billion people that know about the Huckter.
Starting point is 00:37:59 Exa thi. Exactly. Everyone but me. Yeah. I don't know if your mom and dad would know about Hucketer, spit on that thing. They wouldn't know. Was yours? No, no, no, no, no, no. My dad's 80. Right, a couple more bits of correspondence. Yeah. Slipping on a banana skin. Here we go. Slash discarding food waste off the back of me throwing a banana skin. Out of a window. You said some th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. tho th. th. th. th. thoom. thoom. thoom. thoom thoom thoom thoom thoom thoom thoom thoom thoom thoom. thoom. thoom. thoom. thoom. thoom. thoom. thoom. thoom. thoom. thoom. thoom. thoom. thoom. thoom. thoom. thoom. tho. tho. tho. tho. tha. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. tho. tho. tho. tho. thooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. the me throwing a banana skin out of a window you said some of my slip on it and we were told I shouldn't do that because yeah you should only throw it what was the saying if it grows there throw there yeah so you can throw an apple core into an English hedge we talk about hed about
Starting point is 00:38:35 hedges for a bit yeah anyway hi both just listening to the to the shop and passed a banana skin on the floor. She didn't pick it up and instead tutted about how horrible it was to drop rubbish and that someone would slip. Lo and behold, on the way home when it was a little darker, she stood on the banana skin, oh God. She slipped and broke both her arms. Fuck off! How'd you break both your arms on a banana skin? Well I would answer that. Thank you, osteoporosis. Oh no. And some of the things you may have sort of vulnerable to breakages. What is osteoporosis?
Starting point is 00:39:17 My grand had it and she used to have to take stuff for it. And she'd say like bloody osteoporosis. Ithink it was just like fragile bones really. It's fragile. I would say now and I don't want to poor blame on the victim you and which is a very horrible story that if you do have osteoporosis kind of is that you got to really keep your eyes on the floor in you especially when you know there's already a banana skin there from earlier but I'm sorry you broke both the to.... th. th. the th. the th. th. the th. the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. to to th. to to to thi. I'm the. I'm to to to to to to tho. I tho. I tho. I tho. I tho. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to theeeeeeeeeeee. I'm you broke both your arms. So what she'd walked past it on the way? Yeah, I went, oh that's bad, someone should pick that. Oh my God. And then on the way back, a little bit darker, she's still in the banana skin, slip broke both her arms. So I can confirm they're pretty slippy.
Starting point is 00:39:53 Thank you for such a wonderful podcast. in the war zone there, Lucy and I Wickham, love to your Nan as well. And what's the school with when you break both your arms? Yeah. Are you like that? Are you arms out? You can't have double slinging. That's like you're in the Westamfair. Are you lions? You irons. Because if you were slinging off a broken arm, that can't work, so what are they like? They're like, they're they.

Now, LeBron, it was quite a tall guy anyway, but he wanted to slam dunk.
Starting point is 00:40:32 So someone bent over and he was going to run, and he was going to run, and the back, that was he does it, their, their, thaken, tho, tho, tho, tho, thu, thu, that was that was that was a, that was a, that was a, that was a, that was a, that was a, that was that was that was, that was, that's, that's that was only, that's that's that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that, that, that, that, to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. that's. that's. that's their. the the the the the the th. the the th. th the th threat. the the th the threat. the that's the th threats. that's that's th that's that's that's th that age. Yeah. Anyway, he runs up and does it. And as he does it, he wacks his arms so hard on the rim to try and get it in. He breaks both wrists and then when he launcts he breaks his ankle. Oh my fucking. So he was on crutches but also had two wrists. Oh, he's on break your teenage boy. I tell you that for a friend. I say like the no-wanking comments he got was absolutely. What are you doing with your good ankle? Stuff like that. Yeah, yeah, good stuff. Poor feather broke both his wrists and his ankle trying to slam dunk. Gosh, that is fucking pathetic.
Starting point is 00:41:15 Did he get it in? I think everyone was distracted by a three bones breaking. Fucking. Would you feel guilty if you were the the the the the the the the the the the tha, thi, thi, thi, the, th, the, th, th, the, the, the, the, the, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, that, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, too, too, too, too, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, tooomomeree.a, tooomoomoomorrow, tooomorrow, tooomorrow, you were literally the stoogie, you are the rock, you're like, you know, unless he stood up halfway, but if you've remained still, you're blame free. That's very much on the dumb. But there's a blame for the claim if he sued the guy with the back. Big footprint on his back. Have you ever broken a bone? I broke my wrist playing football. Yeah, so is I. And my mom sent me to bed with a bag of peas. Oh no.
Starting point is 00:41:47 She regretted that the next day. What happened to my brother as well? He broke his arm. My mom sent to bed of a bag of peas. But I got sent to bed of paise. And the next day bad it was but I heard them all pop out it snapped. They all snapped. That was a real dark period of my life because I'm you ended up going to take a penalty at AC Milan. Yeah. Because I was booked to do
Starting point is 00:42:17 League of their own Road Trip and then I got canceled out of all the shows and that was my first proper booking of you'd always done last leg which was a regular gig. Yeah and the weird thing with it was, Jerry Halliwell was doing it because of you. Yes because I'd been working with her before on something so then she's got teamed up with you. Did I replace you or was I going as well? I think you were going already but then you ended up doing more to cover for me, but that was my first proper gig, because all my other gigs had been like one mock the week or stuff like that. So I was, honestly, the money I lost from that ankle break was having to tell Lou, I couldn't
Starting point is 00:42:54 do that job, we sat there. We had also, we had like a three month old and a two-year-old. Oh my God, and I'm sat on, the so the sofa she's bringing me lunch and I've just lost thousands and thousands of pounds oh my god that was bad that was bad but um it all turned out well in the end but yeah I've never broken anything else luckily apart from that no few cuts and bruises what have you broken broke my wrist to rest it was when I was doing work experience well as arm wrestler I said we played football at lunchtime and I just saved a shot point blank range and it bent my wrist back. Oh that's the worst way isn't it? Yeah just so pathetic. Five aside the ball to break your wrist. I can't go and go away I've got weak wrists. I stayed in goal because it took me a long time to realize I'd broken my wrist because... because also you're not doing too much with it it is not doing too much with it it. It's it it it it. 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 the that's that's that's the their that's their that's that's that's that's that's that's th that's the worst the worst the worst th.

Right let's do a small business shout out Josh. How about email in the most stupid way you've broken a bone. Oh yes please, you're back on form Josh. There we go. You're flying. Here we go. Hi Robin Josh, we would love a small business shout out for our project. The Strawberry Line Cycle Project and bike hire.
Starting point is 00:44:14 Catchy. It's based in North Somerset. Is that near you? North Somerset? No, I mean, in the grand scheme of things I suppose it is, but... Well, these guys are not-for-profit organization that employs people with learning disabilities and additional needs and provides vocational support sessions for young people with disabilities. We have a great range of bikes available for hire.
Starting point is 00:44:33 Adults, children's seats, trailers, trikes, e-bikes, e-bikes and other options for riders with additional needs. Based on the Strawberry Line cycle path allows riders to enjoy 11 miles of traffic-free cycling through Somerset, countryside. This sounds that fun because I want to take the kids at a bike ride, but it's just so dangerous through country lakes. We also have a cafe on site again employing young people with learning disabilities. Oh my word.
