Hello, I'm Rob Beckett.
Hello, I'm Josh Winnockham.
Welcome to Parenting Hell, the show in which Josh and I discuss what it's really like to be a parent,
which I would say can be a little tricky.
So, to make ourselves and hopefully you feel better about the trials and tribulations of modern-day parenting,
each week we're chatting to a famous parent about how they're coping. Or hopefully how they're not coping. And we'll also 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.

Well, I just, I just overloaded myself Rob.
So having a three-year-old, he is a very nice boy.
Let me...
You sound like you're about to exclude him from school.
He's a very, at heart, a a good child but we cannot offer him what he
needs at this school. No he's a very nice boy so your son's a very nice boy
yeah. The problem is Rob. You sound so tired. I know there's no I woke up this
morning knowing that I was doing this and then... Did you because you turned up 10 minutes later?
Oh God I still haven't said my fucking email.
You're on the phone to the cleaner, your email in place.
Oh look, I'd say she ain't coming, telling them now, like they're not going to be waiting at the gate for are they?
No, but they need to know that she's not going to be to be thah thah thah thah that she's that she's not going that she's not going that she's not going that she's not going to be that she's not going to be to be to be that she's not going to be to be that she's not going that she's not going that she's not going that she's not going. their that. that's not going. that's not going. that's not going. th. they's not going. they're not going. they're not going. they're not going. they're not going but they need to know that that she's not going to be there, right?

at a state of tide of tide of sentences. Sentences. Sentences. If you get the core of what happened
yesterday to... I just... I'm a bad morning as well... My three-year-old, he is so nice, but he's at the point.
What a weird thing is with your own child.
He is such a nice guy.
He's about to sack someone.
He's a lovely type of thought. You forget the stages Rob he's at a stage where
you can't reason with him if he wants to do something so it's easy if you
stop him doing what he wants to do which is have a tea party yeah
Apple don't fall far.
He's loves he just loves imaginative play. So in a day he'll be the
clear. I'm like you at the moment just tapping out of anything imaginative. Fuck that.
I'm like Michael Owen, can't even deal with a film. That's a beauty of being a comedian,
you just loose, you relax, you can just play at work. You can just throw things up in the air, you've got you've got your... Jesus what. So he wants to, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, to, th, to, th, th, th, th, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. He's th. He's th. He's th.

So he wants to do a tea party.
Yeah, yeah, no, or it'll be the cleaner or he'll be the taxi driver in the car.
All these things he loves doing.

yesterday and they've got a three-year-old and it is graft because they're
constantly wandering around and they're sort of old enough to do it on their
own but it's still a bit unsafe if they're going on near a step or the
stairs and but and then also as well if they don't want to do
anything I think the terrible twos? I think it's worse at three for that temper. I think so definitely.
Because there's a bit of communication isn't there?
He didn't have a temper till two months ago.
We were like, and he's either incredibly chilled or he's just, he's either zero or ten.
Yeah. And so we were in Cornwall for 10 days, right? And it's fine if you don't want to do to do to do they. they. they. they. to do they. they. they. they. they. they. to do they. they. they. they. to do to they. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, they. hea, thi, thi, he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he.

does the doctor with you right? So he'll do all of the different things.
And you're not working it's holiday. Yeah you can like this is

You're just sitting here and he's like, you take your medicine here thing you know do and you're like, and you like, and you like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, th, like, th, th.

this is great.
The day we were trying to pack up to leave and you're, basically, you're a man down and
you have to make this piece with yourselves that, because you can't say to him I'm not going
to do that because it's more trouble than it's worth, you know what I mean? Right, so someone has to entertain him while you've got the other
one packs. What about your sister? Does she not get involved in that or she's doing her own thing?
Yeah, she does but she doesn't want to sit. She doesn't want to sit. So he wanted to be the tax,
we were loading up the car, emptying the car. He gets in the car, he's like, I'm the taxi driver. Yeah, this is my taxi. He's sitting in the front seat. It weren't in, was it driving through barking later night? Getting you some... I've been cleared, I've been officially cleared of that,
Rob. I've been clear. I respect, fuck you, barking council. Got home to a... Swivel on that!
That is justice. Yeah. Got home to that letter, and then the next letter I opened was a fine for the dart charge. Which actually was you?
Was me?
Yeah, which actually was me.
Fair enough.
Why, or, or just keep using the crime number.
Keep using the crime number.
You can't sell it on what's that?
You need to crime number.
Um, so anyway, and you can't just leave him in the car on the driveway.
No, of course.
So I'm just now sat in the car.
For about an hour, 90 minutes?
Why he pretends to be doing a taxi, you know, put the phone on the thing.
And you're like, we started packing at 9 a.m.
Yeah. packing at 9 a.m. cleaning up the house all these stuff put the recital, you know, all
all the stuff. We left at half two. Oh my God. What did you move in the furniture? It's
just because like you're looking after two kids. Yeah. Trying to do the pack. And then
yesterday it would get home and then you're like you've got all your stuff,
you've got to get, you know, it's like unpacked three suitcases.
So that was the whole day yesterday.
Me and Rose are quite fried and then last night I had a gig.
So you drove back from, you drove back on Saturday.
Oh Saturday.
Oh Saturday. Yeah, got home like 10 or whatever, which was fine. Well we stopped for them quite a to th. You th. You th.

Oh my God.
I'll be honest, I'm gonna go to New York.
The car is, the car, that's my holiday.
Because they're in their back.
My daughter is fucking obsessed with the Olympics.
She just watches it.
My girls are into it as well actually.
Yeah, they just love it.
Way more than football or anything.
So she's watching, but gymnastics, she fucking loves gymnastics.
Yeah, yeah.
She was watching badminton this morning.

So my daughter was at her friend's house, so it was just me one on one with my son.
Yeah.
I can't go to another cafe with children for, like I just, I've OD'd on that.
I've ODeed on taking my children.
Have you gone to the trampoline part with him?
No, I haven't.
They love that. And they do, they sometimes do toddleressess, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, to to tho, to to to to to to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to tho, to tho, to tho, tho, they, they, they, tho, tho, they, thooo, they, too, too, too, too, too, too, to to to to too do they sometimes do toddler sessions for under five so it's not too mental and they literally just run and everything's soft everything's
bouncy and you can just sit on the on like a little ledge and you just run try
and go mental. Even during the summer holidays you can just turn up.
Yeah so the one we go to go to air jump also I would like to say big up hair jump but they allow other fucking socks on the tap. their. their. their. they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they to to they to have they they they they they they to have to have to have to have to to to to to to to to to to to to they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they to to to to to to to to to to th the the the the the the the the to to thoooo to to to to to to to tho to tho tho they they they they they they th like to say big up hair jump, but until they allow other fucking socks on the tram.
You've covered this.
I've covered this.
But have a look on their website because they do for under fives, they normally do toddler
sessions because over fives mental, it's all like teenagers go mad.
But then they can just run and exhaust them and you can just go right.
I'm just having to pretend to be a taxi driver.
Sat on the drive getting frustrated you're not leaving.
Just, if you accept that you lose in the morning,
it sometimes helps.
Yeah, yeah, so yesterday,
I didn't really accept it, Rob.
So what did you do what him yesterday? About, no, we had a lovely time and Rose was then dealing, you know, and then I'm unpacking
my stuff, because I wanted to unpack my stuff, do you know what I mean?
You're like, and then I wanted to go over my stand-up because I've not really done stand-up
for the whole of the holiday and then I've got a gig in St. Albans that night. And then I'm then I'm unpack unpack unpack unpack unpack unpack unpack unpack unpack unpack unpack unpack unpack unpack unpack unpack unpack unpack unpack unpack unpack unpack unpack unpack unpack unpack unpack unpack unpack unpack unpacked I found I found I found I found I found I found I found I found I found I found I found I found I found I found I found I found I found I found I found I found I found I found I found I found to unpacked and I found I found I found to unpacked and I found I found I found I found to unpacked and I found to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the to to to to to to I was like, I'm gonna, you know, I'm gonna work out all the books that I haven't read and I'm gonna

I don't need to stop.
What have you ODED on?
Stress?
Me?
Me?
Me?
Me?
So what you're doing, you feel, this is my psychoanalysis. No, no, no, no. I. I. I. I. I., like, being a bit, like, overwhelmed and not had time to yourself
and become a bit stressed, and then when you're under stress, you like to order things
to create some control.
Yeah, yeah, totally.
And then I, also punish yourself.
Yeah.
It's brilliant, you spotted it, but also punish yourself. you don't want to read first to get to the good stuff because heaven forbid you allow yourself some joy. Let's create my own barriers to joy alongside the difficulty of balancing life for children
and work. Let's add another one into the mix where you're having to read some horrendous book about
Thatcher again to get to one about blur. That is a good book. But that's really good
that you spotted it though and you're aware of it where before you would have just been head down
going on. If I read, if he forcing myself, if I do 200 pages a week, then I would be on the books I want to read
within four weeks. And I must get to this gig in St. Albans that I don't really need to do because of my tour that I may be announcing is not until next year. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well. Well. Well. Well. Well. Well. Well. Well. Well. Well. Well. Well. Well. Well.

quite stressful because I've put in these gigs with Arthur and Will who books these really
lovely gigs but I'm slightly not at the stage. I'm like I've got to really go for the
because normally I do them after a tour. Do you know what I mean when I'm like I could just knock out half an hour but those little ones. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th.

I've got one to the venue. They're great but that's a bit like we're having an internal meeting at work about
a potential new project right your to your pitch into a client alone. Yeah exactly.

Exactly. The idea has changed a lot in the last week and you've just been emailed it.
And no one's done the numbers so if they ask about the numbers you haven't got them.
Good luck. And you're trying to riff with Peter Jones to get through it. So that's where I was.
Right, okay. Very stressed. Yeah. So that was my holiday in Cornwall. Well the holiday was good though. The holiday was good. The house Rose has done an incredible job on it and do you know what? It was good to be down there with her, keeping an eye on her. Yeah, it's good to see. How is it? Now you see Rose? Now you see Rose. You're not. You're not she could cut Rose today she in the house? Yeah, she is in the house
She's a lovely, that's good. Yeah, it's weird though that you're actually
More stressed when you spend time with her well, do you know what so when they came to? He came to St. Albans because we got friends into all the the the theynip and they were were were were were were were were were were were were were were were were were were were were were were watching. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. They were. They were watching. They were watching. They were watching. They were watching. They were watching. They were watching. They were watching. They were watching. They were watching. They were watching. They were watching. They were watching. They were watching. They were watching. They were watching. They were watching. They were watching. They were they were they were they were watching. They were. They were. They were watching. They were. They were watching. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were.

They were. they were. they were. they were. they were. they were. they were. they were. they were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were. They were like we've got to go and like spend a day or a couple of
nights away or something just to us because like I can't remember the last
time we were a couple if that makes sense. Yeah we've both been off doing your
own work and then it's just with you and the parents. Yeah it's just it's so easy to
slip into that thing where you're like God do you remember being a young happening couple around town? What? Now were you are the the the the the the the the th, the th, th, the th, the th, the th, th. th. their, th. their, their, th. Yeah, their, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, their, th. Yeah, that, that, their, their, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the th. th. the th. th. th. the the the th. the th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the their, their their their their their their their their their th. that, that, the to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to into that thing where you're like, God, do you remember being a young happening
couple around town?
Now, were you a happening couple?
No, all right.
Do you remember when we didn't have kids?
We could have a lie in?
Yeah, we can have a lie in.
Oh, yeah, that's good then.
Well, also as well, like, where you went, your holiday, obviously going to Cornwall, which you love, but it's not like going into a hotel that has like activities put on or a kid's car that they could go to.
No, but we did have other people down and so that marked the kid, that marked the kids out
the game. Yeah, so you had a bit of... Can I say one more thing and then what? Seeing other people's bedtimes being as difficult as yours is fucking, Robbing, th.. people that aren't very good parents to help
around? No, I'm not. I'm inviting down people. It's just happy, coincident. What I'm saying, Rob?
People are having good bedtimes. Yeah. It's a fucking myth. Everyone is having a nightmare.
Everyone. I find it's like the stock market, bedtimes. Go on. It's sort of there's always a nightmare. Everyone! I find it's like the stock market bedtimes.
Go on.
It's always a little bit of up and down, but there's an occasional boom or bust.
Yeah, yeah.
And the worst thing is you never really noticed the boom.
Because all you get is sleep, which should be a human right of just basically.
When it's booming, you just wake up you just wake up, are like seven in the morning, and you go, wow, no child came in the bedroom last night or cried,
or whatever, but you go, okay,
and you just get on with it because it's not really loads of sleep.
You're still getting up at seven and doing them dressed
and doing what you need to do.
But we hit a bit of a bust.
Oh, did you? Oh, the the the the the the the th. th. th. th. th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, and th. Oh, and th. Oh, and th. Oh, and th. th. thi. thi, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. And, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, th. And, okay, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, 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 tho. Rob, good news. There was a night when three couples in this house, none of us got down before
10 p.m. None of us till 10. Well quick last a while immediately to bed, exhausted. It'll be good,
because then kids could go to bed and we could hang out. Night everyone. Yeah,
just... the first people to come down like
discussing whether the other people have just fallen asleep or whether they're still doing
bedtime. One kid who wouldn't let their parents leave because I told them a ghost story that was a mistake I would admit that. Now that is men. That is mad. That is mad. That is mad. That is a the ghost. That is a ghost. That is a ghost. That is a ghost. That is a ghost. That is a ghost. That is a ghost. That is a ghost. That is a ghost. That is a ghost. That is a ghost. That is a ghost. That is a ghost. That is a ghost. That is a ghost. That is a ghost. That is. That is. That is. the ghost. That is the ghost. That is the ghost. the ghost. the ghost. the ghost. the ghost. the ghost. the ghost. the ghost. That. That is the ghost. That is the ghost. That is the ghost. That is the ghost. That is the ghost. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. That is. 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. that is mad. The mad bloke who's ordering his books from least to worse is now telling ghost stories
of his world's.
And I should say this as a cell.
It's not a good cell.
Dan Shriver, who we've had on this podcast, has written a brilliant book for my daughter
loves about impossible things for kids. And it's like paranormal for kids. that's what the book is like. Is the Loch N Loch Ness Monster Real? Oh ghost real. All these fun things that my daughter likes.
Murderous men live in Cormor houses. Exactly. Yeah, those kind of things. And then I'm misjudged
and I read it not just to my daughter, but to my friend's son who's maybe a bit more sensitive
than my daughter. Yeah. But if your kids are interested interested interested interested interested, get impossible things by Dan Shriver before them.
I've done that before when I've picked up like a niece and thrown her in the air and gone
on the belly that I used to do with my kids and then they just go, ah!
And it's like, oh no. Tell me about your bad bedtime's.
Well, my daughter's obsessed with fact books. Oh yeah, she just goes, can I tell, thau, tholk, tholk, tholk, th. th. th. th. th. th. tholk, th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi's thi's thi's thi. thi. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin. thi. thi. thi. thii. thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii. I's, thi. thi. I's thi. I's, can I tell you, my daughter, my daughter's
keep going, Daddy, can I tell you something? Or Daddy, can ask you a question? I'm sort of
like, yeah, but you can't just do it about asking before. Yeah, yeah. It's sort of super,
upe. It's good that they see you as a kind of a figure that's so distant that you know, they can't have a conversation with you on a problem, you, they, they, they, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, thi, that, that, that, can, can, can, can, can, can, can, can, can, can, can, can, can, can, can, that, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, 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 toda, toda, they can't have a conversation with you on a problem. Without stressing him out or panicking him.
Well, you know, because just before bed last night, she went,
do you know that Paul Hubbard, the American football player,
invented the huddle where he got all the other players around him
to tell him the place and no one could hear or see what he was telling him to do?
I was like, no, I didn't. Yeah, did she think that was a kind of thing that's a specifically good one for you because you're into sport?
No, absolutely anything she'll tell me. Oh, okay. Yeah, come across the board. No, so basically she,
the eldest just goes asleep, absolutely fine. Takes it a while to go to bed, but we'll just like,
pot her around her room and stuff, but the youngest, like, kept waking up sort of like a room you know when it's like a hotel where like the bed
the sofa is a bed but there's sort of a door to the bedroom that we had open
so it was like a one bed sweet thing yeah they're on the sofa bed thing together
she was like oh I want you and she and then she would I want you to
lie with me can I get into bed with you and we're like no no you can't do it's
I'm scared on my own I'm like well you're not alone you're with your sister
and then she was I'm scared with a light on her and then she was basically just scared to be the the whole try and to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to to to to to to to to to to to to be to be to be to be to be to be to to to to to be to to to to to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the their their their their their the like, or in the middle of us. So what we, and then we'd go and ended up, we kept on laying with her in her bed,
but then that didn't really solve it.
So what we started to do was,
she was basically coming into an up,
probably five times a night,
coming into our bedroom,
like over the last two weeks.
Loos had then I'm like, gonna help!
And Lou's already walking to the bedroom.
But then what we've done is,
and I don't need to,
so basically getting into bed-rever
because that will never end
and we can't just keep getting into bed the bed
getting into bed, their tea.
Getting into our bed,
and I think what even if it was Lou that maybe brought it on
slightly. Oh so it was Lou that brought it on. Well okay someone's fucking
peppered up haven't they little Mr. book organizers now. Loving Life riding his
whole straight into my relationship, jousting me apart.
You've got to remember Rob that I am on edge and I'm lashing out. I'll take. I'll th. I'll th. I be your victim. But yeah, it was loose fucking fall actually. And she'd better head into the game.
No, but I would have done it. I do the exact same thing. Well, like when you're in a double
bed alone and your partner's away and a kid comes in, rather than constantly walking them back. I need to get some sleep because, theymeatting. I need, 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'd to to to to get, I'd to get, I'd to get, I'd to get, I'd to get, I'd to get to get to get to get to get, I'd to get, I'd to get, I'd to get, I'd to get, I'd, I'd, I'd, I'd, I'd, I'd, I'd, I'd, I'd, I'd, I'd, I'd their, I'd their, I'd their, I'd their, I'd their, I'd their, I'd their, I'd their, I'd their, I'd their, I'd their, I'd their, I'd their, I'd their, their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their because it's mean to get angry even though we are frustrated and at a point
she did start to it was naughty because it's like I like she's constant were like
your bed's fine it's all fine so we'd go okay back to bed back to bed and we just be almost like
non-committal so she'd get upset me like okay no I was back to bed just fer in and putting her in and then then then then then then then then then then then then then then then then the then the then the then the the the then the then then their their their their their their th their th th th th th th th th th they's th they they'd they'd they'd they'd they'd they's they's to to to they's to to to they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they're th to to to the to the the to the the to the to the the to to the the the to they're they're they're they're, no, I was back to bed and just keep constantly just ferring her back to her bed and putting her in and then when she'd come back in two minutes
like, right, back to bed, back to bed, and when she sort of realized that we weren't going to get
in her bed and she wasn't going to get in our bed, she sort of was a bit of a carrot and a stick.
But she go like, but then what happened is,
the first time she wake up, we wouldn't be like,
you can't have your iPad because she does,
basically she wakes up the night,
she wakes up the night, she's wake up the night,
because she's a bit more aware of what's going on rather
than it's been the first thing. So anyway, we did that and it was graft and Lou was doing
most of it for about a week. And now like last three nights she slept through all the night and she's when we went in the morning she came and she was like, I did it. So she's not she's not she's not she's not she's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not doing. She's not doing. She's not doing. She's not doing. She's not. She's not doing. She's not doing. She's not doing. She's not doing. She's not doing. She's not doing. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. She's not. It's not. It's not. It's not. It's not. It's not th. It's not th. It's not th. It's not th. It's not th. It's not th. It's not th. It's not th. Itforcing her into her bed to redo it, sort of it's given
her a bit of confidence.
So hopefully that's a, that's help.
But yes, it's been hard work and then we've just gotten to bed last night and then we've just
got into bed last and both there.
Oh, we've had a nightmare where the tooth, the tooth, the tooth, it to a nerve gun. What? And you fire the nerve gun and then the tooth flies out? You know when it's on its last leg? Come on. Have you not seen it?
No. You tied a bit of Fred around it? No, I can imagine the... Back in the day you'd
shut a door. I never understood how you tied a thread around a tooth really. There was a scene in men behaving badly badly. then't. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. the. thi. thi. thi.

and he's trying to yank it out by smashing a door and then there's all this blood.
But I never, my tooth are too close together.
Yeah, but for an adult, obviously, but for a child, when they're because, I'm
obviously, obviously, it's so wobbly. It's so loose. So did you do it? Well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well? Well, well. Well, well, well. Well, well? Well, well, well. Well, well, well, well? Well, well, well.

Well, no, we had an absolute nightmare.
It's like...
First of all, she wanted to do it on the scale electrics. We've got some scale electric.
So I've tied a bit of thread-round of Dolorian, and then I've done it round her tooth, right?
Oh no, you tie it down the delirion and then it's traveled through time and now the tooth is in the 1950s. So now I've got to get back to 1953 to rescue my door.
She's disappearing from the photograph.
So I tied it round it and then we tried to do the scale electrics.
Yeah.
And as we did it, it was you put, ping and the Fred just broke off the Delorean. Of course. So then I tied it around tied around the nerve tied around th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thed. thed. thed thed thed th. So, the the th. th.

And, the the the th. And, the the thi. And, the the thi. And, the the they. And then, I's. And then, I's. And then, I's. And, I's. And, I's. And, I's. And, tied. And, to. And, the. And, the. And, the. And, the Delorium. Of course. So then I tole it around a nerve gun. Ping. So sorry, which is the nerve gun? What type of gun is a
gun is a big plastic gun that fires them little like foamy bullets? Yeah, so are they
strong enough to, I wouldn't have, the reason I asked because I'm surprised they're strong enough to pull out a tooth. I cannot express you I lose this too false. And also I their their their their their their their. I their their. I their. I their. I their their their to. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't.

I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm. I'm not. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm., Fos. And also I saw it on the internet, which is a real example.
You've seen, so you always say to Lou that you want to try things you've seen on the
internet, don't you? Yeah, exactly, right? Okay. But then I tried it on a nerve gun again and it's pinged out. So I was like, oh, and then I said, oh, do you want me to just yank it? It's just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just, just, just, just, just, just, it, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, you to just, you'll just, you'll just, you'll just, you'll just, you'll, you'll just to just to just to just to just to just, you'll just, you'll just, you'll just, you'll, you'll, you'll, you'll, you'll, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you'll, you'll, you'll, you'll, you'll, you'll, you'll, you'll, you'll, you'll, you'll, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you. to just, you'll, you'll, you're, you're, you're a. to just, you're a. to just, you're just, you're just, you're just, you know, you're just, you're just, you're just, you're just, you're just, you're just, you're just, you're just, you're just crying. And basically we've been yanking on her tooth
through the nerve gun and all sorts.
And in the end, when I yanked it,
the thread broke, but like at the top of the tooth.
So then it just had a thread tied around it
that was stuck there.
Oh my god. So now she's crying, and now the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th is. th is. thau. threat. threat. threat. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. I's. I's. I's. I's. that. that. I's. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. threat. threat. threat. threat. threat. threat. threat. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. thread. Yeah. She wanted to do it though. She wanted to do?
I just left it.
I couldn't get to it.
Is it still there?
The thread?
No, because luckily the tooth fell out last night.
Oh, right, thank God.
And then another one, and then both of them,
both the tooth and then just pulling it yourself. I did try that but didn't come out. But he looks so loose.
What about tying it to the bumper of your car?
Yeah, Josh, okay, all great suggestions.
I've got a five-year-old, who's crying.
He's crying at the nerve gun.
If I go right, I'm just gonna try it
attach this in the midst of doing it, I'm like, Lou, I need to help here.
Then I've got like, I'm lying down and lose.
I've got an idea, Rob. Go to the tube station. The train pulls in just hand a thread
to someone within the train and. Then we'll get a fast train from our station.
Oh, the fast train's even better.
Oh, no, it was just it was a nightmare.
Oh, God, I'm sorry.
And then we've got a slime issue in the house.
They went to a slime party.
I saw Lou's post. Oh, right. tho. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. too. Oh, too. Oh, too. Oh, too. Oh, the the they. Oh, the the they. Oh, they. Oh, they. Oh, the the. Oh, the. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh, the. Oh, the. Oh, the. Oh, the. Oh, the. Oh, the. Oh, the. Oh, the. Oh, the. Oh, the. Oh, the Lou is probably more worried about this than
the very together tone of her Instagram. So the slime is slime because that is I
think slime should fucking fuck off. Right a slime is awful right or they just
need to make something it doesn't so so we've got blinds right blinds in our
bedroom yeah I start start putting the blinds up, right?
As it comes up, I see a big, weird circle thing hanging off of it.
They'd put the sli, they'd left the slime on the window sill,
and then when I'd put the blinds down the night before, it had landed on the slime and connected.
So now there's like a layer of slime on the blinds that we pull up and down. Yeah. I took that off anyway and then last night they just left it on a table, the dinner table, he's got a lovely
parcade sort of dinner table. Yeah, I loved it. I loved the dinner table. Such a
shame to have to replace the table. Well the other thought is it's not a bad color actually the slimes left it. If I just get a giant bit of slime, I'm, 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 the the th. th. thin, I thin, I thin, I thin, I thin, it, it's got thin, thi, it's got tho, it's got tho, it's got tho, it's got tho, it's got tho, it's got the the the the the the the the th th th th th th th th th th th th, it's got th, it's got th th th, it's got th, th the the th the th the th th the the that, that, I've that, the that, that, that that that that that that that that ta ta ta ta ta ta ta thi thi thi, thi, thi, I mean rather than try to get it...
You'll never match the rest of the table to that little circle though.
I imagine because it was at a slime party so I'd have to say to my daughter, right, you've got a big job.
We need the exact same slime.
You'll have to masking tape the area that's been sliined and then... Oh God, that is it's awful. That's awful. That's awful. That's awful. That's awful. That's awful. That's awful. That's awful. That's awful. That's awful. That's awful. That's awful. That's awful. That's awful. That's awful. That's awful. That's awful. That's awful. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that's awful. that. that's that. that's that. that. that. that's that. that. that. that. that. that. that. It. It's at that.

It's. the th. th. th. th. th. the thea. th. th. thea. th. thea. th. thea. thea. thi. th. the very into her aesthetic. I don't know how you deal with that. I think Lou might be right, you
might have to sand it off and redo it. I can't sand the holes that, oh, as if I'm
going to do that. There's so many jobs. I still haven't sought my fucking
light bulbs out. You still haven't what? Sort of my light bulbs out. the one. the the the the the th. th. th. th. th. th. I I I I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I thoom.

You know, I'm trying to do my fitness and eat health in exercise, right?
So my plan is to have a complete laugh style change where now I'm a bit more educated on what I eat
and I go to the gym, I try and go to the gym two to three times a week, okay? Or do some sort of form of exercise or right. Yeah, that's to the to. And I. And I. And I. And I. And I. And I. to to to to to to to to to to to to to have to have to have to have to have a to have a to have a to have a to have a to have a to have a to have a to have a to have a to have a to have a to have a to have a to have a to have a to have. to have. to have. to have. to have. to have. to have a to have. 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 have a complete. to have a complete. to have a complete. to have a complete. to have a complete. to their to the the the the to the the the the toda. to the the the to the to the to to to to to to to to to to to half an hour on a treadmill. Lovely. I even went to the park. That's good half an hour Rob.
Exactly.
I was really good.
Yeah, that's really good.
From nothing.
And now outside, I struggle to run outside because I feel like,
if the floor's not moving, why should I?
You know, I've heards, the comedian. Yeah, very good. I was gigging with him last night.
Great, very such a character. Great, very a very stuct as well. He thinks you're hilarious,
which I found annoying, but there we go. Well John's funny, don't take yourself too seriously,
does he, John, with some comedians. Yeah, exactly. He said that your, he plays football
with you every Tuesdays.'t he? Or most Tuesdays.
He said your upper body strength holding off players has really improved in the last couple
of months.
Really?
Okay, interesting.
I've always proud myself of beating off men.
Oh, there we go.
A bit of fun, you know.
Oh, that's very kind of him.
Well, that's what I say.
So, that's what I'm, so I am actually, so since end of April, I've been going to gym quite regularly now, all running, and I'm really on it.
So even on Sunday, I'll go up at 6 and took the dogs for a walk and I ran as well.
So it's the first time I ran for a mile nonstop outside and I'm going to build that up each
week, okay? And it was nice, it was 6 a.m in the morning, no th no th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th to th to to to to th to to th to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to go go go go. to to to to to to to to 6. to 6. to 6. to 6. to 6. to go go go go 6. to go go 6. to go 6. to go 6. to go go 6. to go go go go. to go. to go. to go. to go. to go. to go. to go go. to to to to the the the the the the the the the the the th the thoo. the thoooooooooooo. 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 tho. the the get on with it. So I'm like so when I basically I was 98 kilograms Josh and I
got down to 91 kilograms before. Fucking out. Fair play Rob. So it's like seven
kitsons about a stone right and also I'm doing it really slowly inject so I'm
still like going out for I'm not it's not really you're not hanging out with me
you wouldn't really notice that I'm on a diet or you're not a boring boring. No exactly I'm still doing so but I want to get to hanging out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out 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 the the the the the they. the the the the the the the the the the to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the they. they. to to to to to to they. they. they. they. they. th. the. the. the. the. the. the. they. they. their. they. their. their. the. their their their th. k. No. Exactly. I'm still doing... But I want to get down to the weight I want to be out in about 80 months, two years
time, but it's become part of my lifestyle, not crash dieting, okay?
Yeah, yeah.
Because what you don't want to do is do something that is unsustainable in the long term, and so when you stop, you just go fucking hand me, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, the, th, th, th, thu, thu, the, thu, the, thu, thu, thin, thin, tho, tho, tho, tho, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, tha, tha, to, and, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, tho, mean? Get me a good, yeah, exactly, give me the wheel of cheese.
So for example, I went to holiday and I put on a kilogram on holiday, which I thought is pretty good.
Not bad considering you've lost seven. You've got that to play with it.
You've got that in. Exactly. I also went to Berlin on the piss and I had three pints of lager every lunch fair and a fair and a exactly yeah yeah so I was like you're only put on a kilo you're a bad
parent but you only put on a kilo so you know you can't be good
everything right no exactly so I get back and now I'm at 92 kilograms okay
last on that was a Monday of last week right anyway so since then I've been
doing my calorie counting really on it for five six days and then at the weekend I'd like a couple of glasses of wine and a pizza which is fine because that's part of how I do
things right? No but that's fine that's what I've been doing I'm to the whole
way true. I'm just finding you up from I'm just fine to you here what's happened to me okay so I was remember I was on 92 kilograms I'm to 92.9 I'm a to the the I'm not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not not 90. to the to the the the the 92 k I'm 90 I'm 90 I was to to th I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was not I was not I was 902 I was 90 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was 90 I was 90 I was I was I was I was I was 90 I was 90 I was 90 I was 90 I was 90 I was I was I was 90 I was 90 I was I was I was 90 I was I was 90 I was 90 I was I was 90 I was 90 I was 90 I was 90 I was 90 I was 90 I was 90 I was 90 I was 90 I was 90 I was 90 I was 90. I was 90. to 90. to 90. to 90. to 90. to 90. to 90. to 90. to 90. I was a 9. I was a 9. I was a 9. I was a 9. I was 90. I week I played football on a Tuesday with John Kearns,
absolutely marshalling the defense, beating men off.
I also did two gym sessions for an hour, quite, I was really going for it, proper ones.
I also done two runs for about 25 minutes.
So two gym sessions, two runs for 25 minutes, football and also I've done two dog walks,
like an hour-long dog walks.
And I also did another outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor outdoor walks, and I also did another outdoor run on Sunday.
By Friday evening I was 91.6, so I've lost a full kilogram, right? By Friday, by Friday.
No, no, no, I didn't, but I just was like, I want to make sure that I am on it,
and I normally checked once a week, right? I'm on sort of track. The weekend,
at a couple of glass wi Peter, nothing more or different that I've been doing all the other weeks. Anyway, I waited myself this morning, because bear, mind, last Monday, 92.6, by Friday, 91.6,
this morning, 93.
Fucking now, Rob.
Faking now, Rob.
Hey, no.
Were you nude?
No.
Yeah, I was nude for... I'm just having pictures like now. My head, yeah, it's horrible being nude, isn't it, for a, for a, for a way.
My head went this morning, I was up at 6 a.m. this morning, because I had to come up here to do this before I do sub-coat
this afternoon. I was fucking livid. Yeah, right. Rightly. So I was that point thinni. I was th. I was th. I was th. I was th. It th. It th. It th. It th. It th. It th. It th. It was th. It was th. It was th. It was th. I was th. I was th. It was this. It was this. It was this morning. I was this. I was this morning. I was this morning. I was this morning. I was this morning. I was this morning. I was this morning. I was this morning. I was this morning. I was this morning. I was this morning. I was this morning. I was up this. I was up this. I was up this. I was up this. I was up this. I was up this. I was up this. I was up this. I was up this. I was up this. I was up this. I was up this. I was up this. I was up this. I was up this. I was up this. I was up this. I was up this. I was up at this morning. I was up at this morning. I was up at this morning. I was up at this. So then I started googling water attention like some sort of fucking nanan that's in denial. She's had a vienetta
and then it's probably because of the heat. No, it's not nanot it's a vienetta you've had on your own at lunch. Yeah. So anyway, I don't know what it is. It is erratic, it is erratic,
so you will go up... Two kilograms. Two kilograms is mad. From Friday to Monday morning.
And I... Are you bunged up? What with fat? Bunged up with personal. No, well, to be fair. I've just
got to the voiceover building and I absolutely had a clear out. So it might be a massive shit. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But, maybe. to. to. to. to. to. to it. to to to to to to to to to to to to me, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. Two, th. Two theatheatheatheatheathea. things. things. things. things. things. things. things. things. two. Two two. Two thea. Two the voiceover building and I absolutely had a clear out,
so it might be a massive shit.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, four pound shit.
My daughter was only five pound when she was old.
Well, let's hope it doesn't grow.
Well, let's hope it doesn't grow and end up in bed with you.
Yeah, so Edwin completely.
And so what have you had for breakfast today? Nothing.
The old.
That will solve the problem.
Yeah, that'll do.
Just what I'll do is I'll get, I'll emotionally react to the weight.
I won't have breakfast.
Then at lunch I'll treat myself with so mental or massive.
No, I've job what's that
I saw why they bust they always bus saw on a Monday morning around your way
no some fucking pricks having work done yeah yeah so that was that was my morning lived Rob I had a bit of a
fitness disaster by the way yeah because I get it do you notice it with your wedding ring like in that that that that that that that that that that th th th th th th the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. th. th. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. th. Yeah. th. th. I'm th. I'm th. I th. I th. I was th. I was th. I was th. I was th. I was th. I was th. th. th. th. th. th. I was th. I was. I was th. I was. th. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I the the the the the the the the the the the the th. I th. I the th. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm the. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm the way. Yeah, because I get it. Do you notice it with your wedding
ring? Like in the heat my wedding ring is stuck on so much more. But that make me more heavy?
I think potentially it's a little bit of I needed a poo and a bit of water attention because
the maths don't add up, Josh because on this plan, when I stick to the plan, I lose weight.
Yeah, unquestionably. And if I don't, I know exactly what's gone on.
Inclusive holiday. Rob, I got accused bum and thick thi.
Thic H. I sees when someone's like thick like solid and big and sexy.
No, I didn't get accused of that.
I've never been accused of being thick.
That's why I thought it would be that, you know, but you got accused of being
stupid or lacking intellect. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, but yeah, yeah, I've. I. I. I. I. I that. I that. I that. I that. I that. I that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that thus. th. th.

But yeah, yeah, right?
Yeah.
I've been accused of all of them, right?
Ignoramus.
Yeah.
So I put on Instagram,
I don't understand why I weigh less
when I wake up than when I go to sleep.
And people said,
It's because you haven't eaten in a while.
That doesn't make sense.
Because where's
the weight going? Well look because you you burn it off won't you?
Like and where is it going? How is it leaving my body? You basically digest it and it
goes into poo and you take what you need from it. Yeah but then you yeah but in some of it's
been burnt up with acid or disappeared or the liquid's been soaked up?
So apparently you lose a lot of
weight, Rob, can't. Feel lighter?
I'll wake in Lou up tomorrow.
I'm already weighing myself, dick flapping about.
Just breathe out Lou.
So you lose it through your breath and sweat, basically.
Right, okay, I'll get you.
Anyway, people accusing me of being thick for not knowing it's because you don't eat at night,
but the reason that's not my point. Because why does it, anyway, my point is, 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, I, I, I, I, I, I, I'll, I, I, I, I'll, I'll, I'll, 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, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I. I. I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll th. th. tha, I'll tha, I'm tha'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a'a, I'm tha, I'm tha, I being thick for not knowing it's because you don't eat at night, but the reason it's not my point, because why does it?
Anyway, my point is, I had a run, Rob, in Cornwall.
I said to Rose, I'm gonna go, it was like, it was like drizzle, I was like, this is great
for running and drizzle because it keeps you cool. I ran, I was like, I'm going to go down to the coved, down down, down, down, down, down, the coved, the coved, the cove, the cove, the cove, the cove, the cove, the cove, to to go, to go, to go, to go, to go, to, to, to, to, to, to, to go, 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, Rob, Rob, Rob, Rob, Rob, Rob, Rob, Rob, Robb.. to, Robb. to, Robb. to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, to, to, to, to, to, to, Oh bliss, this must be, you know, what a beach. Yeah.
Right, so I ran down to the cove.
How far is all this?
So I ran down to the cove and then across the cliff path to the first beach,
which is probably about three or four K, right?
Oh, yeah.
Oh, so down was a mistake.
I hadn't really thought about this because obviously it's it'silly. So I got to the first beach, Rob, it was drizzling. It's like a small secluded beach. There was no
one on it and I'd run to it and I thought, this is the best run I've ever been on to the beach
to be on. to love it. This is fucking unbelievable. It's like beautiful run, I feel great. I've now got this this this this this this the beach the beach the beach the beach the beach the beach the beach the beach the beach the beach the beach the beach the beach the beach the beach the beach the beach the beach the beach the beach th. I've th. I've the beach. Beautiful th. I've the beach. I've the beach the beach. I've the beach. I've the beach. I've the beach. It's the beach the beach. It's the beach. It's the beach. It's the beach. It's the beach. It's the beach. I the beach. I the beach. I the beach. I've the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the even ran down onto the beach, Rob.
Oh, shoes off, have a dip?
I ran along the beach on my own.
And I just shouted, Rob.
Oh! Into the kind of ether.
What did you shout?
Ah!
Ah!
Ah!
Did he feel good? It felt great, Roe? Was it after our Frank Skinner chat, do you think?
Oh, I don't know, maybe it was. Yeah. It feels good to scream, doesn't it? Yeah. So then I was like,
this runs not over. I'm going on to the next beach along the cliffs. Oh, okay.
The biggest mistake I've ever made in my life. It's too far?
Too far.
And perilous mountain path.
Making so close to the edge.
So I couldn't even look out.
I was like, and it started pissing down.
And then I got to the next beach.
And that beach was so much lower than our house that I then I got to the next beach and that beach was so much lower than our house
that I then basically...
But see the news.
Yeah, I know I hadn't thought this through.
I basically had to run uphill up a road for 15 minutes.
I felt like I was in the Tour de France.
I would just like a sleep.
Oh yeah, it was Ito stop twice.
Hated myself for that.
I hated myself for it.
So do you not, never, you don't normally stop at all running, you sort of will plow on.
Try not to because I find it actually makes it more difficult.
Yeah to get going.
to get going. That's good though. How is your fitness going going. 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. thi. thi. thi. to. to. to. to. to. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th.

that you like, and then at breakfast,
maybe have a more sensible breakfast.
But I'm trying to do what you're doing, Rob.
Tell me more about your two weeks.
I tell you what, I'll do a couple of things.
There's a couple of things I forgot from holiday. It was so hot. It was so hot so. so. tha tha tha thi there was one day, it was really hot and we ended up on a table that was like outside,
that was covered, but it was still too hot to be covered.
And like the kids were like blood red.
It was on a sort of like balcony, or near the beach.
And the kids were like, they're like, we let them have the air con like because they've been out in the pool for six hours you know and then we can have a drink and a chat. No judgment here and I've been playing with them and
anyway I was so hot and then but I basically this is great tip if you're hot and you're really
hot crocks and the crocks and ice get some ice cubes and stick them in your crocks.
How does it fit or do them in like the bit? the th in the holes? No, no, so just put them in like the bit where your soul would go and then because it's got there quite big you can sort of slide them
on top and then just roll them back and forth and play and it was unreal.
It's so icing your crocs and also because they're rubby they won't get the
shoes where they'll dry. I need to join the crock's the house you wear, but for holidays, when you're like going to the pool,
they're perfect, and then when you're going to the,
in the sea, if it's stony or rocky, you can wear them,
but also you can flip them on and off so quick.
And if the kids wanna do something that's a bit more active,
if they're on a bike or if they're in the parkflapapapapapapapapapapap. the their their their their their their run where you can run in crocs. I think sandals are not comfortable. I've got some burking stock little slip-on clog-type ones with
no back on the back and they are I like them because when I wear them
them I'm doing nothing. If I've got crocks on I'm popping out to do the
bins I might have a corner and I just shuffle around in them a bit like an old they those ones that I that I that people that I that people that people that people that people that people that people that people that people that people that people that people that people that people that people that people that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that the their that that their the their their that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that 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 they're their they're they're they're they're they're th they're th they're they're they're tho I I've tho I've tho I've tho tho thoooo' they're they're they're tho' they're they're their they're the shed. With them on, I sit and I just shuffle around in them a bit like an old man. Are they those ones that everyone seems to have now that I've got
the media people have, yeah. I've got like the kind of leather bit of the front. You can't have
leather ones or swayed on the front. An ankle out a little bit of a buckle on the top. Yeah, you know, Fucking out. You can't. You can't. You can't. You can't. You can't. You can't. You can't. You can't. You can't wear him into town, like today, it's hot, I'm in London,
I wore my trainers, I walk a lot from the station.
And we're meeting up later.
I might even go to the gym between my voiceover sessions and meeting us at our little
meeting with you me and Michael.
Oh, I'm excited about our little to the today.
11 times driving the other day. Oh this is funny this so do you know Mr. Uguai from Kung Fu Panda? Master Ugui do you know him? Right no but yes I can
imagine. So I'd have I just they wanted to know what he said or something so I'd
googled it ages ago and it was like a quote from Master Ugui and they were
going from my camera roll. You know when they get your phone and now they just know how to work it and they're like just hammering through the camera roll.
Let me see if I can find it.
And I look over, at this point I forgot that I've got a master Uguay who's like a turtle,
a picture of him saved on my phone.
I look over and they've zoom rude photos on my phone. Yeah. But this is what I see my children looking at, zoomed in on my phone.
Is that a penis, Rob?
No, it's not.
It's Master Ugui's neck and head.
But when you quickly look over, it looks like your children looking to a cock on your phone.
And now I realize the animators have made Master Ugui's head like a a cock on purpose haven't they? Of course they are. For their own, for their own amusement.
Can I ask you a, Beckett's, can you make a judgment on this?
Go on.
So I haven't got any incriminating stuff on my phone because I'm a good guy.
Yeah.
Sure.
However, she will just look at the photos on my phone for pleasure.
So I'll give her my phone to go, oh look at this photo, yeah,
and it'll be a photo of, I don't know, something, you know, our kid doing something.
And then she'll be looking at it, and then she'll just go through all of my photos to look at all the photos to enjoy them.
But I don't know whether you've got access to your partner's camera roll. Free and...
Oh, I don't think we've got, I don't think we share camera roll. Can you do that? No, no, no,
no, no, no. Which we don't share camera roll, but if she has my phone, she'll then look at
all of the photos in my camera roll to look at our kids. But it's even though therethere's nothing bad on there, it still makes me edgy to have someone
go through my camera roll.
No, also as well, no, but there's stuff that's not, it's not going to be like you and Rose
going at it, but they'll be like photos.
No, no, no, no, but this is Rose looking at it.
Not my kid.
Oh, I thought I thought I thought you meant to explain that. like a silly thing, like me and one of my mates, you just send photos of each other's shit? Yeah, exactly, Rob.
I don't want to have to explain that.
No, exactly.
But when you marry someone, are they allowed
to just go through your camera roll,
willy-nilly?
I think so.
And I think it's OK for you to embarrass
about some of the stuff you've been texting someone. No I haven't been texting someone Rob. I'm just
always texting someone. You love a WhatsApp group. I do love a WhatsApp group but none of them
are sexy. Okay. Mainly it's just pictures of you know my camera roll is mainly photos of my children
and then screen grabs of social media by other comedians that I'm
sending to other comedians. Fair it up, the best way. Yeah. I've got to, we've
brought out of time now but I'm going to tell you about what me and Lou were
arguing about on holiday which is quite funny I forgot about it I've just seen it
by notes. Well shall we do that as a start on Friday? That's exciting for listeners, isn't it? Oh, and I have a little tea's, and then let's do a quick small business shout out
because we've spoke for ages here.
Here we go.
Hi, Rob and Josh,
I've been listening since the early days of lockdown
and homeschooling, and you are now a firm staple
of my dog walks and iron in sessions.
Please could you give my small business a shout out. Jam Queen makes luxury jams and preserves in small batches using homegrown and locally
forage produce as much as possible.
Based in the beautiful Northamptonshire Countryside, I pride myself on using the freshest
and highest quality ingredients to make the best taste in jams with some fruit being
jammed within minutes of it being harvested.
I didn't know you could jam that quick.
You can't get fresher than that.
I recently won two gold and silver awards for to marmalade to the World Marmalade Awards. Whoa! I started
the business in autumn 2023 but I've been making preserves for over 15 years
and growing my own fruit and vegetables for last five. Check up my
website the jam queen dot square dot site for nationwide delivery. I can be found on
Instagram at the dot jam
dot queen or Facebook the underscore jam underscore queen underscore. God's a lot of different
things there. Do you want to do a small business?
Hi Rob Josh and Michael. I am writing in as I would love it if you can give a small business
shout out to my friend Natalie. Natalie introduced me to your podcast a few years ago
and we listen religiously. Our conversations often start with you listen to your podcast a few years ago and we listen religiously.
Our conversations often start with, have you listened to the most recent parenting, hell
yet.
We then proceed to have a good laugh about your super-relatable anecdotes.
Or slash judge both of us in different ways?
Exactly, yeah.
It won't be.
I wouldn't have given them an iPad in that situation.
I think they're bringing on the problem themselves, if anything. What about, there must be a pool of water. It's really considerate to the other diners if old
fucking ice crock feet is they're swimming up back and these little trotters. And why has he got books
that he doesn't want to read? Just don't read them.
We're all different, all right? That is a super talented artist and has we've been doing pet portraits as a hobby for years.
She's recently decided to make it a business and it'd be great if you could give her a shout
out to get things rolling.
Lou may even like a portrait of your dogs, Rob.
I love that she might.
She doesn't want it.
She knows you don't want a portrait of your dogs.
She knows Lou Will. Anyway, you can you you can you you you you you you can that you can that you can that you can that you can that you can't that you can't that you can't want a portrait of your dogs. She knows Lou Will. Anyway, you can check some of it. I've just put this into Instagram and she's
fucking good Rob. I, she's so good. I was looking across a grid and I couldn't
work out on one of them whether it was the portrait or whether it was a dog.
An actual picture of a dog. Instagram at Natalie Garrett Art
NATALIIE, G-A-R-E-T-T, so it's double T at the end of Garrett Art
or on Facebook at Natalie Garrett Art. Thanks so much and please don't ever stop the pod.
