Hello, you're listening to
Shag My Annoyed with me, Rosie Ramsey, and my
husband, but also looks a little bit like
Johnny Bravo with his hair flicked up, Chris Ramsey.
Why are you currently slagging me off for my hair being up?
It's just, it's very high, but I actually quite like it.
Well, it doesn't sound like it,
because you're just being an absolute dick about it.
I love Johnny Bravo.
Listen, I went and just did my hair just there,
especially for this podcast.
So I don't know why I'm getting shit for this.
Good for you.
I put my new boots on.
You have put your new boots on. I put a pair of boots on. Now and then, because they're new, and I don't know why I'm getting shit for this. Good for you. I'll put my new boots on. You have put your new boots on.
I'll put a pair of boots on.
Now and then,
because they're new
and I haven't wore them.
Now and then,
I like to pair new shoes
in the house.
They're like formal slippers.
They are.
So just put them on
and wander around.
Stitchfix gave you them
for the tour.
Yeah.
Didn't wear them for the tour.
Nah.
Put them on now
and you absolutely love them.
I forgot.
They gave me that much stuff.
They sent me that much stuff.
They were at the back of the reel
and I didn't realise.
I've put them on now and they're bloody lovely. You could have been wearing them on tour. Yeah, I know. You've had your much stuff. They sent her that much stuff. They were at the back of the rail and I didn't realise. I've put them on now
and they're bloody lovely.
You could have been wearing them on tour.
Yeah, I know.
Got your trainers on instead.
Not just that.
You know what?
What?
They've got a cheeky little quarter inch heel on them.
Have they now?
Tell you what,
I'd be beheading them
coming out the top of their marinas.
How's the weather up there?
But no, no,
I've been working around
like tiny little me.
Oh my word, right.
This is, right, okay. I'm so glad that you've mentioned me. Oh, my word. Right, this is... Right, okay.
I'm so glad that you've mentioned height.
People, for some reason, I don't know why,
and this is not strangers, this is people I know,
people ask me all the time how tall you are.
How tall are you?
I think that's a very personal question.
I'm your wife.
Everyone listening is not my wife.
Well...
Why do people ask how tall I am?
Honestly, I don't know.
People ask a lot of questions about you people always that's what that comes up whenever
i used to do meet and greets after me to our shows people always used to say you look a lot
taller on telly and i was like well you've mainly seen us on panel shows sitting down so i don't
know what you're talking about there i've got a long torso um i'm 5 11 just oh yeah right okay
with the fringe up uh johnny bravo and these shoes on, I'm probably 6'1".
How many inches are in a foot?
12, innit?
So, you're near 6'0", okay.
No, no, I think I'm probably, you know what, flat down, hair flat down, no shoes on, I'm
probably about 5'10.5".
Right, so you lied.
Rosie, I'm 5'1".
No, I mean, I'm 5'1".
Rosie, I'm going to the ground, I a hole i'm a little hole i'm a
sewer do you know that's true what you say people say you look taller people meet me and they're
like are you smaller in real life i'm like the camera adds 10 pounds yeah so what are you gonna
do stop eating cameras love boom now we've started now we have started guys it is episode 138 as if as if as if
skip to a little
edit point here
listeners
Chris is currently
freaking out
because he thinks
he stole somebody's joke
by saying
stop eating cameras
I feel like I've heard
stop eating cameras
somewhere
that's a massive part
of a comedian's life
isn't it
yeah it's weird
ruins a lot of stuff
for this podcast
yeah
you've actually said
stuff that I've gone you can't have no
comedian who does a routine about that yeah yeah so if i always do i always it's really you get
really worried you get really really worried that you've stepped on someone's toes and used
it's like it it's a code of honor in comedians where you just don't nick other people's gear
and don't do other people's gear i get that musicians fuck covering covering each other's
songs willy-nilly having a lovely bloody time time. I think they've got to ask, though, don't they?
Yeah, I suppose, but still.
Do you have to ask before you cover someone's songs?
I don't know.
I never did, but I don't think anyone really gave a shit.
You didn't sing the fucking correct words, did you?
So it didn't even matter.
They were probably absolutely unnoticeable.
Listen, Adele, I'm going to Haven this weekend.
I'm going to be doing a three-minute...
Sorry, I'm going to be doing a ten-minute medley going to be doing a ten minute medley of all your songs
is that alright babes
yeah great
hello
hello Madonna
yeah yeah
I'm at
Jarrow Social Club tonight
I'm going to be singing
Leper Quassing
goodnight there actually
Jarrow Social Club
fucking right it is
don't knock it
till you try it
guys without further ado
it's time for this week's
lucrative
lucrative sponsor
this week's sponsor is
butterfly stroke oh hey have a nice time in the pool oh watch out someone over there's doing
butterfly stroke in a public pool fucking horrible it is the swimming equivalent of a loud motorbike
going down a pedestrian street it's it's you're showing off. It's pointless. Only about 15 people
in the entire world
can do it.
Well, listen.
Stop doing it.
Pointless.
Don't want to brag or anything,
but I used to swim
for South Tyneside
and my stroke
in the relay
was butterfly.
Bullshit.
I'm not, Chris.
No one can do it.
Only the people in the Olympics
can do a butterfly stroke.
I've got it on video.
Are you shitting me?
One of them videos
in the box.
Yes.
In the cellar.
In the video box.
And we don't own a VHS.
Well, I want to get them sent off and made.
See, right?
Okay, listen.
Suspicious.
I want to get them sent off and made into something,
but I can't get DVDs anymore.
Can you get VHS to a dongle?
Yes.
Can you?
Yes.
Well, I'd like to do that.
Oh, God. I'm not trying to be a dick. I'm asking. Why aregle? Yes. Can you? Yes. Well, I'd like to do that. Oh, God.
I'm not trying to be a dick.
I'm asking.
Why are you...
Yes.
Have you not seen
the billboard outside of the front house
with VHS to dongle?
I didn't know that.
Well, my point is,
Mrs. Lunatic,
to get it onto a DVD,
then rip it from a VHS
and put it on a hard drive,
then burn it to a DVD, so you're just cutting out the and put it on a hard drive then burn it to a DVD.
So you're just cutting out
the third stage of that.
So I'm actually saving the planet.
Great.
I'm glad.
Not the planet
because it's not a planet
because actual electricity
is going to be used
to burn your fucking
butterfly stroke video
that no one wants to see.
Is electricity worse for the planet
than a DVD?
I don't know.
In the case.
Possibly.
Yes.
What did you just hit there
me laptop
you just hit your laptop
up onto my laptop
it started great
the theory's getting me back
listen
the reason I sponsored
that was a sponsor this week
because I was in a pool the other day
and there was a man
doing a butterfly stroke
and I felt attacked
it's a very selfish stroke
I felt attacked
it was a fucking small pool
it was like a spa
and he was butterfly stroking
I thought he was dying
no
it was the weirdest thing
I've ever seen
there's no need
there's no need for it
in a public situation
he's coming up
both arms are coming up
do you know how
should I give you
a little trick
so when you do the butterfly
obviously your feet
have to stay together
and it's like
it's like a mermaid
kind of thing
it's like
it's how you would swim
if the mafia
had put your feet into concrete and thrown you in a river it's how you would swim if the mafia had put your feet
into concrete
and thrown you in a river.
It's how you would try
and save your own life.
If that ever happens, okay.
Yeah.
So you've got a kick
using a mermaid kind of stroke
with your feet
and your legs.
Right.
And then when you put your arms over,
when you put them back in the water,
you make the shape of a keyhole.
Right.
Like that.
Right.
Do you understand?
So you do the little round bit,
you go into the middle and then you go down like a little skirt and then you go together like that right do you understand so you do the little round bit you go
into the middle and then you go down like a little skirt and then you go together and that's how you
do the butterfly bitches right okay one question what uh we are scenario for you we're at the beach
um and um robin robin it's not a nice story um robin goes out in a little dinghy okay he falls
out you've got to swim out to save him are you doing butterflies joke
yes or no
are you swimming
butterflies joke
to save your child
from drowning
listen
no I'm not
because it's fucking bollocks
it's the worst joke ever
stop doing it
in a competitive
I'm going to start
a petition to get
a take on the Olympics
because it's just
unsettling
it's unsettling to watch
I don't like it
it's nice
it's not nice
it's horrible
they all look like
they're being dragged
under by some kind
of serpent.
How mint is it
when they just go
under for so long
and you're like
when they're going
to come up?
They've done half
the pool.
Well sometimes
I watch the swimmers
at the Olympics
not doing butterfly
stalkers it's pointless
but the ones doing
the proper stuff
and I think
they are swimming
faster than I could
run alongside of the pool.
Yeah it is.
It's impressive.
It's really incredible
apart from butterfly stalkers
it's stupid and pointless. I was taught by an Olympic swimmer at South Down pool. Yeah, it is. It's impressive. It's really incredible. Apart from Bottlehide's door, because it's stupid and pointless.
I was taught by an Olympic swimmer
at South Downside.
Yeah?
Chris Cook.
Ah.
Cookie.
Cookie.
Cookie.
Cookie.
Do you know him?
From Cool Cookie.
Are you dating the man?
Cookie the Crawler.
What?
No, I'm just kidding.
I've never heard him in my life.
But I'm sure he's amazing.
One last thing I want to say about swimming.
Oh, God.
I had to stop,
because I stopped my periods,
and it was getting a bit too much.
Oh.
And. Oh. Hey. Well, periods and it was getting a bit too much.
Oh, hey.
It was, it was a bit intense.
I was like 12 or 13.
Oh, why did this happen?
One of the best, the reason why I actually really enjoyed it. No, I'm sorry, I need to interrupt.
Why did your period stop you from swimming?
Because it got really intense, right?
So obviously it was a proper squad and you get moved up
as you get older and you get better or whatever i was starting to have to go at like five o'clock
in the morning before i was going to school we're here chris we're here at school it wasn't good my
eyes were puffy i was knackered it was like training like five nights a week and obviously
when i started my periods i was like oh i didn't wear tampons i was like what what am i meant to do
if i'm on my period just miss a week miss a week of swimming what do you mean you didn't wait i don't understand when you
young when you start off your period you don't go straight in with a tampon you start off with a pad
you can't be wearing a pad to go to the swimming right so what right okay because me and a lot of
the other um i'll be honest with you stupid men listening and i put myself in that category when
you said i started my period i couldn't do it anymore we pictured jaws when someone gets bitten and the entire pool
goes red and i'm telling you right now i'm not saying that for effect or to upset anyone but
every man listening pictured that thank you for clearing up that it was more of a comfort thing
i've started people just just swimming people swimming bush
butterfly stroke
oh no I've got it on
so you think I just
got banned
because I started
my period
in heaven baths
yeah I thought
the whole
which isn't there
anymore actually
rest in peace
heaven baths
brilliant slide
brilliant slide
great slide
that's the way
I trained
yeah
anyway
I did
the best thing
about swimming
when I was younger
if anybody else
used to go swimming,
was that you were allowed to eat
like raw jelly
at nine o'clock in the morning
for energy.
Wow.
Just,
just.
And that's,
that's what kept us going
for like six years.
Wow.
Wow.
And tuna,
and tuna and sweet corn pasta.
Raw jelly,
period and public.
Raw jelly,
period and public. Rosie, you know you can just in public. Raw jelly, pureed in public.
Rosie, you know you can just buy that raw jelly
and eat it at home anyway.
Bye, everyone!
It'll be Mam with no letters.
Are you kidding us?
Mam, can I eat six cubes of raw jelly?
What?
No, you can't.
Mam, can I eat six cubes of raw jelly?
Yes, you can because you need energy for your race.
Wow.
Good girl.
Wow.
Good girl.
Good girl.
And I just want to clarify
before anybody
just starts hating on us,
not everybody stopped
because they got the periods.
That was just a personal
choice of mine.
Right.
I don't think you implied
that everyone stopped
because they got the periods.
Imagine.
The NBA squad just lads.
There's loads of female
swimmers in the Olympics.
I guarantee you
they all cracked on, love.
So why did I... there must have been more reason
i couldn't be asked i don't know lazy yeah absolutely yeah got sick of jelly yeah no i
don't like jelly now actually sick of myself yeah tainted it tainted it listen let's get this jingle
on before i cry my eyes out honestly we've talked about swimming so much i can smell chlorine
oh i did i used to
always smell a chlorine oh my god a lot okay here's the jingle
we had a fight about the jingle
we couldn't settle on a jingle
so this is the jingle
we hope you like the jingle Jingle Babadoo babadoo babadoo
Jingle

Sell out a couple of arenas and you think you're bloody Billy Big Bollocks.
All right.
Eh?
Okay, all right.
Reign yourself in.
Listen.
No, I'm just commenting
on the fact that we
always get nominated
for things that the
public can vote for.
We never get nominated
or win things that
actual panel members
vote for.
Oh, if there's a panel
of judges.
We're not going to.
If there's a panel of judges
you might as well throw
one of them straight
in the fucking bin.
They hate us.
But when you beauties
listening right now
are in charge,
we know how the tide
ends up turning. So yeah. Rosie, what you
don't have is the
sort of the humbleness that 12 years
of not getting nominated for anything
gives you. Oh no, I just have the
12 years of being denied
from every audition that I've ever done.
Yeah? Yeah. Oh, go on, play in that hour.
Play in Who's Got the Biggest Violin.
No, it's true.
It's actually,
my friends were really,
it was sweet in a way,
but obviously just a,
it reminded us of a lot of bad times
because they were just kind of saying like,
you know,
remember when you used to audition
for loads of stuff
and you never got anything?
And then they were like,
and now we look again.
I was like,
that's nice and thank you,
but yeah, yeah.
Remember when,
you know at the beginning of this podcast
when you asked us how tall I was?
Remember when you didn't get a job on a cruise ship
because you weren't tall enough to fit in the costumes?
Yeah.
Was that bullshit or was that true?
I did that.
Do you know what I mean?
Do you think that's just what they say?
It's a good don't hurt your feelings put down.
Yeah.
Yeah, not you're shite.
Oh, you're not going to fit in this bear costume.
No, it was the actual costumes
because you have to be
over it
it's a bit like being
a flight attendant
so you can reach
the cupboards
I never got
I never bothered
with that
you also never
learned that they're
not called cupboards
what they're called
overhead
compartments
cupboards
just put your stuff
in the cupboards
they're Ikea them
put them together
myself
they are cupboards
though they're not cupboards though.
They're not cupboards.
Well, they are.
You could fit in one.
You love to take your time getting your stuff out of the cupboards.
That pisses me off, no end.
Wow, wow.
I know, but I don't like that.
Everyone's stood up and waiting and you're just nonchalantly, casually getting your stuff out.
Why?
When the fucking aeroplane door's shut, everyone queues up and stands and like hustles towards the front
and you're like
the fucking stairs
aren't even there
yeah you pricks
I'm one of them
it's ingrained
and it's Sandra's fault
yeah you're horrible
she's like that
yeah you will join
yeah I've said it before
you joined a queue
past the chairs
where we were sitting at
we were sitting at
some chairs waiting
and the queue went past us
so I was like
well we'll just sit in these chairs
until the end of the queue
gets here
then we'll stand up
no no no
you stood up
we took all of our stuff
at the end of the queue
and then we walked past the chair
we'd just been sitting there.
Wow.
I'm getting better.
I'm getting better now.
When I know I've got a seat in that
I'm like, right, that's okay.
I have got...
You've taught us that.
I am better.
Yeah, good.
You are welcome.
You're welcome.

It's hard.
It's hard to do.
And I end up wrinkled up in it.
It's tight.
It comes off my end,
on my top corner.
I woke up the other day,
I'd been lying chest first.
I looked like I was dying.
I had like an old man wrinkly chest
because of all the blooming creases on it.
And then you've put the duvet cover
in the wrong way.
Right, well we need to
make a mark of some sort.
The lines go horizontal.
That's all you need to know.
Horizontal, that's lying down, isn't it?
The lines are lying down.
The lines are lying down.
No, stop.
No, no, no, no.
Right.
The rain in Spain lies mainly on the plain.
First of all, don't make a rhyme.
Don't.
Stop, stop, stop.
Don't make a rhyme to remember the thing you've just got wrong
because you've got it wrong.
What do you mean the lines are lying down?
It's on a duvet.
It's flat.
It's always going to lie down.
No, if I look at it,
if I look at that quilt,
there's little lines
of like stitching.
Yeah, they run from one side
to the other.
If I look at that quilt though,
they need to be horizontal.
I never knew that.
Now I know that.
Right.
So I've been putting them in vertical.
Right.
It's very confusing.
It looks the same size.
It's not very confusing.
It's the easiest thing in the world.
It looks the same width as them. It's the easiest thing in the world it looks the same width as them
it's the easiest thing in the world
it's not
oh god
do you know what's hilarious
like it's been bugging me
for about three nights
but I was like
I just want to wait
until you get home
so you can sort it out
have you sorted it out
no I haven't sorted it out
well will you do it
before the night
because it's really irritating
because on my side
of the bed
on the quilt
I've got like
I've got about
I can't believe what I'm hearing
I've got about 8 inches of just sheet before the duvet starts.
Right, so that makes sense because I had no duvet last night
and it was because you were pulling it because you had the sheet hanging over the side.
Right, well, there you go.
Oh, God, why are you so shit at stuff?
Another one you did.
We've got two pillows.
Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah, wah, wah. Stop that now. We've got two pillows.
Stop that now.
It's still bed related.
So you,
we've both got two pillows,
right?
Check us out.
Yeah.
Doing well.
No,
not doing well because you only put
one pillowcase on one of them.
So there's two pillows.
One of them's got a pillowcase on.
The other one's just left bare
because you only sleep on one. And you put a pillowcase on the wrong one. I had to climb. No there's two pillows. One of them's got a pillowcase on. The other one's just left bare because you only sleep on one.
And you put the pillowcase
on the wrong one.
I had to climb.
No, listen to me.
Because there's,
there was a reason why.
Because you're an idiot?
No, it's not because I'm an idiot.
What then?
It's because
we have got
Super King pillows.
Yeah.
Because we've got
a Super King bed, right?
Because we're,
you know,
don't like to touch each other.
right because we
you know
don't like to
touch each other
I like to sleep
in a different
postcode to my wife
so our bed's massive
right
and because we're
kids are in it
every flipping night
which secretly love
so we've got
super king pillows
that my mum got
and we've got
super king pillowcases
obviously
don't know where they are
they all look the same
and I couldn't I went through, no, listen to us here.
I put three pillowcases on, right?
And none of them fit and I gave up.
And I thought, I can't do this.
I didn't have time.
How can they look the same?
One of them is literally a foot and a half longer than the other ones.
There's not that much.
And what are you doing putting them on first?
Just lie them next to it and see if it's the same length you jerk
no because then
it's the fluffiness of it
and it'll make it smaller
no
that doesn't make any sense
it does
it makes loads of sense
lazy
email in
if it makes sense
don't email in
you're lazy
so you put on the wrong one
one of them's
one of them's feather
by the way
anyone out there
using feather pillows
you want shot with shit
you want beaten to death
with your feather pillow.
People still making them.
What are yous playing at?
I use a feather pillow.
What are you talking about?
It's horrible.
You put your head in it and it just flattens in the middle and the sides wrap around your head.
Yeah, everyone likes different things.
It's awful.
How dare you?
Just because it doesn't agree with you.
I have a feather pillow and I actually really enjoy it.
Even though Rafe might have an allergy to feathers.
So I need to get rid of it.
Seriously, right?
People might as well.
People who are sleeping on feather pillows and wafery little shitty flat pillows.
You might as well be sleeping on a t-shirt.
It's pointless.
There's nothing to it.
But you put it on the wrong one.
So I had to get out of bed.
And the stick in you.
Like little needles.
It's the worst.
And then every time
one comes out
you go there's me grander
does me tits in
fucking sick man
oh look at this feather pillow
look at this
there's two million
of me grander
all in one fucking place
stupid moron
can we talk really briefly
do I say about
me cousins little girl
no no
I don't think she'll mind
us saying this
so obviously there's only been Briefly, did I say about my cousin's little girl? No, no. I don't think she'll mind us saying this.
So, obviously, there's only been one great-grandchild who met me grandad before he died.
Right.
So none of the great-grandchildren have met him.
And there is a few of them, you know.
So my cousin's little girl never met my grandad.
Right.
But she's got a picture.
We talk about him so much, right?
She's got a picture of him at the side of her bed.
And she says all the time how much she misses him.
And she never met him.
Oh, that's so sweet.
It's so lovely.
And Robin said the other day, the clouds were really lovely in the sky.
And he said, that's my Mama's daddy, Grandad Jimmy.
Oh, no.
But I think he actually said, that's Mama's Grandad.
Mama's Grandad.
Mama's Grandad.
Do you know what?
It's really, really sweet.
But I feel like we just talk about them all the time.
Well, obviously, I take the make, the feather thing.
But I think it's absolutely lovely.
I think it's lovely
that there's a photo of him
you know there's photos
of him in our house
yeah
like imagine
I mean obviously
you'd never know it
but imagine
being photos
and being talking about
ages after you're gone
and kids and getting
you know I don't want
to get too deep here
but it is a lovely
lovely thing
just know
just know though
that he is listening
to this
yeah
and I don't think
he likes you
okay
cool
you know
because all you do
is slag yourself
so just know that
Jimmy listen
if you're floating
about the house
just give her a nudge
which way to put
the fucking duvet
in the cover
do us a favour
it'll freak us out
I know you're there
but don't make
your presence known
because I'll get scared
thank you
right come on then it is with due trepidation that I ask you Thank you.
Right.
Come on then.
It is with due trepidation that I ask you,
what is your beef?
So, well, you say beef,
but it's actually, I'm a bit concerned about you.
Right.
To the point where I genuinely think you might have to ring the doctors.
Okay.
Just because, just to let everyone know,
last night you told me
that you had forgotten
how to make Robin and Rafe's tea.
Yes.
And I'm just a little bit worried about you
because normally to forget something as simple as that,
you would have had to have, I don't know,
had some sort of...
Blunt force trauma to the head.
Yeah, some sort of really bad trauma.
Or, you know, have been away in the army
for possibly a couple of years.
Yeah. You've been away for a week
yeah
Chris
since the last time you saw me
make tea for the boys
I'm just worried
I'm just really
listen
I know
babe I'm really worried about you
I haven't made tea for them
I haven't made tea for them
for easily
over a month
because I've been so busy with stuff
the other day I was back
for 23 hours
right
I'm away a lot
I've got a lot on my mind
I'm genuinely really worried about you if you can got a lot on my mind just it's i'm genuinely
really worried about you if you can just for getting a little simple tasks like that it's just
did you say it just to get out of it no no come on i panicked i was like i don't know what to do
here honestly honestly there's no i yes or no bullshit did i have to ask you how many sweeteners
you take in your coffee coffee you did you did. You did that because you knew I was going to mention this today.
And you thought I'm going to ask her because I'm going to play on this narrative of I'm so forgetful.
You're the least forgetful person I know.
I'm aware so much.
Love.
You don't forget how to make your kids tea.
Love.
Christopher.
Love.
Christopher.
What's in it?
Love.
Rosie, listen.
Some stuff, it's just going out
of my brain
because I'm not busy
you should be
actually ashamed
of yourself
sweet cheeks
what's it
you
what's your name
so just to let you
all know
that I left
today
because he tried
to do it again
today
as I was leaving
for the supermarket
trying to play
the game of
I forgot what he
has for his dinner
so what did I say
to you
I said
google it
do you know what's funny Chris I didn't know what he had for his dinner. So what did I say to you? I said, do you know what's funny, Chris?
I didn't know what Rafe had for his dinner
until I Googled it.
And you can use Google,
so do it yourself, dickface.
Well, I went straight on Google
and turns out Rafe,
even though he's only nine months,
he's got a food blog on BBC Good Food.
I just read that.
He just had all his favourite stuff.
He's written what he wanted
and I just made some stuff of that.
He was over the moon.
Good.
Over the moon good over the moon
are you going to apologise
nah
I looked at your list
on the fridge though
that was good
you need to add
cheese on toast to it though
oh my word Chris
there's a full
three pages
of lists
of what Rafe
eats
you
bellend
and you
made me go to Google
wow
stupid sod
you wanker listen I am sorry I apologise I'm out of practice You made me go to Google. Oh, wow. Stupid sod.
You wanker.
Listen, I am sorry.
I apologise.
I'm out of practice.
And it's a confidence thing.
It is like a, you know, what if I give them the wrong thing?
And I got in my own head about it. It's the same thing.
I can never remember what side, what corner of an envelope a stamp goes on.
Because I get in my own head
so much about having it wrong
the right hand side
top right
well it's
listen
no I can sympathise with you
because I have actually
forgotten how to make
all of the teas
that you enjoy
I only remember
how to make
tuna and sweet corn
jack potato
right
so that's what I'm going to be having
for tea this evening
not sure what you're going to
be having yourself
yep
I'll be going out for a curry.
Enjoy.
Because I would rather die than have a jacket of potato for my tea.
Right.
Because it's the worst food ever.
I'm disgusted.
End of discussion.
Hope you choke on your curry.
I can't remember what to chew, actually.
Honestly.

mysteries music No, I think I did. I miss music. In my head, that sounded amazing. I really, I just miss music on the podcast.
You forgot music?
Oh, we're not allowed it.
Not allowed it.
Got to pay loads for it.
Forget it.
Forget it.
Do the song in your head.
We're not paying for it.
God damn it.
I might learn the piano so I can do my own jingles.
Right.
I haven't got time, have I?
Yeah, I mean.
I'd like to.
I might learn a, do a little keyboard.
I tell you, I could play, if I didn't have a wooden heart
on the keyboard when I was younger
right
if I only had a
if I only had a wooden
is it Elvis?
I don't know
wow
so
look forward to more of that
sorry
you know I could play
not only have you forgot how to play what it is,
you forgot the name of it, the lyrics,
what the song is and who sang it.
So that's good.
Forgetting stuff, forgetting stuff is, it's a thing.
It goes on.
You do forget stuff.
No, no.
I forgive you.
Chris, I was nine at the time.
I forgive you.
Hi, Chris and Rosie.
I was told about your podcast at the beginning of lockdown,
and now that I'm up to date, I've started it all over again.
I hope you did the thing, by the way,
when you're told about our podcast.
Anyone, if you're told about our podcast,
you've got to immediately tell 10 friends in an hour,
or your crush will never fancy you.
Oh, hey.
So, remember to do that, or you'll die alone.
Do you know someone?
No, I don't want to name and shame her, because I love her so much, So, remember to do that or you'll die alone. Do you want someone to...
No, I don't want to name and shame her
because I love her so much,
but me auntie only stopped sending them about a year ago.
Send this to ten people in your contact list
or your crush will never fancy you.
Oh, come on.
Oh, shit!
What time did I open that?
Oh, have I got 45 minutes
or an hour

when we were kids
oh hang on
my phone's flashing
something very serious

we've organised
Robin a little birthday party
for his birthday
and I sent it
sent it to the whatsapp
the school whatsapp yeah
and uh just eagerly waiting who's gonna rosie has been getting so excited when a reply comes like
it is her birthday it is not your party it is robin's party it doesn't mean you're popular if
people are coming okay does it not no does it mean robin's popular or does it just mean people

yeah that's fine free free dinner for kids, isn't it?
Well, there we go.
It's kidding me, man.
Would you two stop blocking the lines?
God.
Got a party to organise.
Okay.
I can't help but think that this is the best place to share this story,
especially with the new and improved format of Rosie's Mysteries.
Wow.
So this is from a while ago.
We bought our house earlier in the year
and have slowly been ticking off the many laborious tasks
that come with committing to a lifetime of debt.
Yeah, yeah.
Have you unpacked all your boxes yet?
Because we still haven't done that.
No, we moved in in March and we've still got so many boxes in the cellar.
Do you know, I was looking for a chopping board today
and I remembered we've got one of them full stacks of chopping boards.
You know when it's got all the different ones on
when it's got the fish and the veg in it?
Yeah.
We bought one of them in the old house
and I've got no clue where it is.
No clue.
I also don't know where the little brush is for the fireplace.
So I've been using just a brush I found at a hoover.
Okay.
Oh, I don't know where them things are.
No idea what's going on.
I do like that chopping board, though.
Mm-hmm, yeah.
You keep your fishes and your meats
and your veggies all separate.
Is that the jingle,
or have you just made that up?
I've just made that up.
Very good.
Thank you.
Go on.
Read mystery before I explode.
This week, the weather here in Australia
has been brilliant.
Vomit.
So after work, I...
So jealous.
That was jealousy, by the way, everyone.
Oh, yeah, I'm not vomiting in Australia.
Bloody laugh, Australia. Just the fact that the weather's just lovely, by the way, everyone. Oh, yeah, I'm not vomiting Australia. Bloody laugh, Australia.
Just the fact that the weather is just lovely, isn't it?
Yeah.
So after work, I thought I'd end the day by getting out of the house
and doing a bit of gardening, whilst listening to the podcast, of course.
Thank you so much.
After a few relentless hours of ripping out weeds,
I finally made my way to the most overgrown section of our front garden.
You've got to be brave to do a bit of australia like why sunstroke no no everything's trying to kill you all the time yeah
yeah even the ozone layer right really yeah that's why you've got to wear if you're in the pool and
stuff you've got to wear much more you should wear you've got to wear factor 50 with a special uv
thing and kids are very rarely...
When we went, Robin had to be like head to toe.
No.
So she's made it the front garden with the overgrown,
with hundreds of deep-rooted weeds and clusters of bulbs.
Oh, clusters of bulbs, I don't like that.
Nobody wants a cluster of bulbs.
As I worked, I couldn't help but notice an overpowering smell
coming from the garden bed.
I put it down to simply being some
kind of plant juice as the plants were a little damp and kept going oh with how overgrown the
garden had gotten with years of neglect i ended up on my hands and knees trying to rip the weeds
out with all my strength however the closer my face got to the plants, the worse the smell grew. Oh, man.
You knew it had to be about the smell. It was on here.
At the dry, retching, vom-in-your-mouth stage,
I was sniffing around, trying to find the source of the smell.
Goodness me.
After a few minutes of deep sniffing and retching,
I sat back to try and work out what the smell was.
I concluded that it could only be one of two things. Either the
neighbour's cat had been pissing on this section of the garden or the neighbours must keep their
garage bin complete with kitty litter on the other side of the fence directly behind the garden bed.
Right. Determined to get the garden clear I kept going. Bear in mind that I had no gloves on and had removed my dusk
mask to have a drink an hour ago and had misplaced it. Oh my word. I worked through the smelling
garden for another hour or so until the stench of urine became too much and I gave up. I figured
that now that it was almost half cleared it may get some much needed airing out and the smell would dissipate in time for my next gardening venture somewhere down the track.
Over breakfast the next morning, I told my partner of the awful gardening venture.
As I started to describe the smell and my confusion,
explaining that it could only be the cat or possum piss, he burst into a fit of laughter.
He looked at me with absolute delight
and through his laughter said...
I know exactly what this is.
He's been pissing out of the window
and it's been landing there.
And through his laughter said,
that's my morning piss spot.
I'm morning on a daily basis
awful
every day
is it not got toilet in the house
like
I don't know
in the sun
every day
in Australia
that's my morning piss spot
you can't be weaned outside in Australia
not with that heat
no
oh you dirty
horrible
that's my morning piss spot
that's my morning
yeah don't do that
that's cockney that oh god my morning. Yeah, don't do that. That's cockney.
Oh, God.
Yes, that's right.
I spent hours barehandedly ripping out plants that for the last six months.
Wow.
My partner had been using to take a leak in.
Gallons of the stuff.
I know.
He claims he didn't want to wake me up with the sound of the toilet flushing when he leaves for work at 3am.
So he found a spot in the
garden and dubbed it the piss spot.
Oh mate.
Awful that innit. Mate.
Mate. Mate.
Not good. That's horrible.
Yeah. Oh god
I'm just thinking.
If you put a hand in to grab a
root all the leaves will be like rubbing on her
forearms and her elbows.'s just his way isn't it
doesn't even make it
any better that it's
a person that you love
still gross isn't it
still hot wee
hot dry wee
get in the bin
do you know how
Rafe's had a really
blocked nose recently
and we think it might
be an allergy
so the doctors give us
some like baby
pirating stuff
so we're doing a little
test at the minute
I know that a lot of mothers
do the whole
mouth over the nose
to like
to bring the snot out
people put their mouths
over
honestly
that noise there
was me almost being sick
they put their mouths
over both
I've never talked about this before
I nearly did it
I nearly did it
I was sat with him
at four o'clock in the morning
and he couldn't breathe he was like this and I nearly I went I had nearly did it. I was sat with him at four o'clock in the morning and he couldn't breathe.
He was like this.
And I nearly,
I went,
I had him in me arms
and I went,
I'm not Chris,
I haven't told you this.
I went and put my nose
over his,
I put my mouth
over his nose
to go and do it
and I was like,
I couldn't do it.
And I love him so much
but I couldn't do it.
So when I wipe his nose,
when I wipe his nose
with a tissue,
I go and wash me hands
because I'm on tour,
I don't want to get him cold. You know, if he snots on us, I'll wipe it, when I wipe his nose with a tissue, I go and wash my hands because I'm on tour, I don't want to get him cold.
You know, if he snots on us,
I'll wipe it off and I'll wash.
I'm not getting a mouthful of his snots.
I know.
I'll have to cancel gigs.
Well, I felt like a really bad mum
because I couldn't do it.
Sorry, I'm going to put my hands up here
and say you're not a bad mum
if you don't suck your baby's snots
out of my nose with your mouth.
I really wanted to, I just couldn't bring myself to do it i felt terrible i really wanted to because i wanted to help him i would do anything to help him but i couldn't do it
i know oh i don't i feel really bad about it use the snot sucker don't use your mouth
chris i feel really bad because i like i couldn't do it and now I feel like, am I his
mum?
We've done the DNA test and you are his
mother and we do have photographic
evidence of you giving birth to him
via C-section. However, you won't
suck his nose. I don't think you are.
I did help once when Robin was
constipated. I did help get a poo out of his nose.
Stop, right, stop.
Oh my God, put a babadoo bye in, please.
Babadoo, babadoo, babadoo, bah.
Hi, Chris and Rosie.
I was listening to episode 132
and you wanted to know about things people have had time off work for.
So here it goes.
Oh, lovely.
This is ridiculous things people have had time off work for.
This is what this person rang in for.
Dot, dot, dot, dot, dot.
Sleep whiplash.
Sorry?
Exactly.
I woke up one morning with a pain in my neck
and couldn't get out of bed without crying in pain.
One trip to the dock later,
and apparently I had given myself whiplash
from moving my head too much in my sleep.
Wow.
And so I had to have a week off work to recover,
and phoning in with sleep whiplash
is not something that there's an option for
on your return to work form.
That's from Amy.
I smell a bullshit.
Sorry, sleep whiplash is not a thing.
You've just lay funny.
Probably got a frigging feather pillow.
Yeah.
If you've got a partner
who doesn't put the right pillowcase on,
you've got to line a feather pillow
and you get a crick in your neck.
I wonder.
Some people do thrash in the neck.
Carl Hutchinson had a bad neck the other day in the neck call call hutchinson had a
bad neck the other day in the tour van and every time i spoke room he was turning his whole body
like robocop i wanted to smash his face in it was the most annoying thing he turned his entire body
not a lie you're coming with me i was like oh but it does when you do hurt your neck it's really
annoying when you're in a van with someone and they've done it it's pissing us off do you remember when Robin
that's a funny thing
when adulthood
when adult illnesses
like that
or unfortunate
accidents
ailments
that's the word
I was thinking of
well done
when adult ailments
happened to children
that happened to Robin
last year
and he
bless him
he was absolutely gutted
he had to lie on the sofa
and couldn't move do you remember while you're here yeah I do yeah you had a bad neck he was absolutely gutted he had to lie on the sofa and couldn't move
do you remember
while you were here
yeah I do
yeah he had a bad neck
he was like
I've hurt my neck
his was like a whiplash thing
he'd be doing
when he was playing and stuff
yeah
and so he had to sit down
for the full day
and like lie down
it was a couple of days actually
it was quite bad
and he was
remember we had to like
carry him to bed and that
and that was kids
did I
I've just got a crook
in your neck son
did I never
a crook in your neck I think is it or never? A crick in your neck, I think.
Is it or not a crook?
Is it a crick or a crook?
What is it?
Oh, I don't know.
What did I say?
A crook.
Crook.
Might be crook.
Makes sense.
Crick's not a word.
Anyway, did I never tell you when I was younger and I did it so bad at school, I got the neck
brace?
No.
I got a neck brace?
You got a neck brace?
Yeah, you know what?
It looked like a big, a big long pillow. i got i didn't get a communal neck brace i got one from so it wasn't one of the
like proper plastic ones that you see people who've had really bad accidents wearing it was
just almost like a this polystyrene one like the styrofoam no like the material stop saying no
i've said no when you said polystyrene, I said no. I knew what you meant.
Or do you mean like spongy?
Yes.
Oh, okay then.
So polystyrene, you said the completely wrong word.
Fusely.
A spongy one.
So it was like a big, long, sort of big, long, spongy tongue.
And it just wrapped around your neck with Velcro. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
They give it to the fakers.
They give it to the fakers.
Sorry?
They give it to the fakers.
No, they give it to the people who definitely hurt their neck.
I think they definitely give it to the children whose. Sorry? They give it to the fakers. No, they give it to the people who definitely heard it there. I think they definitely give it to the children
whose parents bring them in
for ridiculous bullshit.
Wow.
So what are you doing?
My mum and dad are downstairs.
Do you want to go and have a word?
I'll absolutely bring them up here.
I'll tell them to their face.
Do you want to go and give them a shout?
No, no.
And Bill,
he's had you wrapped around
his finger for years.
I don't think my mum and dad
know we do a podcast.
No, I don't.
I hope they think
we're in here
having sex
I hope not
my marriage is still alive
sort of
no but
one of the best
school days
ever
when I went in
with that neck brace on
I bet it was
I tell you what
most popular kid
in the school I was
nothing like that
happened to me
honestly
everyone coming up
tapping us on the shoulder
and running off
in the other direction
so I couldn't turn around and look at them.
It's great banter.
Great banter with the kids.
It's great banter.
Throw my stuff on the floor.
Can you pick that up?
No.
The only thing really, really bad
that happened to me at school
was that I broke my finger in netball,
but it's a very...
You can't really...
There's nothing you can do for it.
Don't you put it like lolly sticks?
You've got to splint it
and kind of have a little bandage around it.
But, you know, you don't get time off.
It's not very serious.
What hand was it?
I can't remember.
Why?
It wasn't me right hand.
Oh, there you go.
Because I was still at school.
You brought the wrong one then.
You brought the right hand.
Fuck's sake.
Walked around like a little Star Trek fan all day.
Yeah.
Do you know I used to play netball at school?
I don't know if you know that.
Oh, God.
Swimming netball. Yeah. Why did you you know I used to play netball at school? I don't know if you know that. Oh God, swimming netball.
Yeah.
Why did you give
up netball?
Got a period.
Got a pair of
tits, got in the
way of the ball.
Actually.
What are these
doing?
I did get poos
very young.
It probably did
hurt to run.
Jesus.
Because I was
wing attack.
Your wing attack
do a lot of
running.
So that's probably
why.
And I didn't
have a, you don't
buy a sports bra
when you're like
13, do you
I know
I don't know
save all your money for jelly
I was on the hockey team as well
I was quite sporty at school
yeah
I used to do the climbing
what happened
I got lazy
and found Netflix
hi Chris and Rosie
I've recently been in hospital
due to a kidney infection
and in brackets
I'm out now
Oh good stuff
That's good
When I was in hospital
I was on a lot of painkillers
Oh
That's what you want
That's what you want though
You do
You love your painkillers
Oh hell tell you what
You're going for too much
Diamorphine
Best day ever
Labour

I can under...
Do you know, this is it. There you go.
There you go. Right? I've never done
drugs. Okay, I'm preparing
myself for a ridiculous epiphany
but come on. Well, I've never done drugs.
I've never done hard drugs. I've only ever done
weed, right? I've never done anything more.
Sorry. Stop me there.
Sorry. Guys, come on in.
We've got her. We've got her again.
We've got her.
Right?
This whole thing has been a charade.
Thank you for pretending to listen, everyone.
We've finally got her.
The weed wench of self-shields.
We've got her.
Come on in, lads.
Good job.
Good job.
Don't take me grinder.
I've been working...
Grinder.
I've been working undercover for 12 years.
Is that what it is?
To catch you for this.
12 years?
Yeah, 12 years. we've only been together
for 7
I had to do a bit
of stand up first
to cement myself
as a name
so you'd fancy
us in that club
because you know
weed wenches
follow the money
wow
right
cool
see you after
I can head off now
that's as
it's been good
I'm going to
go back to my real family now
okay
I hope you remember
how to make the tea
off the cliff been good. I'm going to go back to my real family now. Okay. I hope you remember how to make the tea.
Pot noodles all round in the Smith household
at night. That's my real surname.
Oh, Christ. oh christ right okay so no apologies what i wanted to say what i wanted to say was i've never done
hard drugs but i remember dimorphine very fondly so many i would like drugs yeah maybe
maybe i would like drugs maybe i. Maybe I would like drugs.
Maybe I would.
Yeah, well, yeah,
they've got a...
Is that what they're like?
Well, that is diamorphine.
What kind of drug is diamorphine?
Yeah, yeah, it's like a...
Morphine?
Well, yeah.
So what's morphine?
It's a downer, isn't it?
Is it technically a downer?
I don't know.
I don't know what the...
So they always put them
into weird categories.
You know when you watch
the TV shows
where people are getting
pulled over by the police?
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, and they always put them...
Opus and Downers? Well, police? Opus and Downers?
Well, no, Opus and Downers is like nicknames for it.
Narcotics.
Yeah, that's it.
There's like narcotics and there's amphetamines and there's nothing amphetamines.
What's dimorphine?
I've got no problem with that.
It sounds like an amphetamine.
Amphetamine.
And the car trunk was full of amphetamines.
Basically, I want to know where to get more amphetamines.
What would it be?
Would it be heroin?
Morphine.
Is that what morphine is?
I don't know.
Probably up there
with your heroines
and all them fellas.
Okay.
So there you go.
I'm not going to try them
because I've gone this far.
Yeah.
I've gone this long in my life.
And drugs are for mugs, actually.
Okay.
And I can't go back
on my lifelong stance.
What a place to go shopping.
You know,
you just said there
what one would they be under
like you were in a drug supermarket
looking for the right aisle
I've just
drugs is not
it's not something I know much about
is the diamorphine
in the heroin aisle
or is it in the cocaine aisle
do you know what I find
very upsetting
well
when I say to people
I've never tried drugs
and they're always really shocked
yeah
they're always like
oh I would have thought
you would have
and I'm like
really
do I look like a dabbler
the lady who does
a dicey dabbler
the lady who does
our PR
she
I'm not going to name her
but she said
the other night to me
backstage at the Palladium
do you know Chris
I've never done a drug
and I thought
that sounds
that sounds about right
I don't get it
I've never done a drug
a drug
I have never in my life
done a drug
I was just like yeah that's all like don't get it i've never done a drug a drug i have never in my life done a drug yeah like that sentence although you're claiming that you haven't i believe you for the way the
way you structure that sentence proves your point she ever had a paracetamol don't know
no she doesn't drink coffee she doesn't drink alcohol oh wow oh no she doesn't no she does
none of the drug yeah none of the drug.
Right, listen.
Enough of drugs.
We might be tempting people to have drugs and they're for mugs.
I've got to go back to my real family after this, man.
Jane Smith.
Living the narcotic life.
Where the hell was I on this?
Oh, she's off her tits on painkillers, right.
Great.
And so the nurses would come in every couple of hours
to give me more.
Give me more.
Give me more. Give me. Give me. Give, give me, give me, give me more.
Come on, just read the story.
However, every time they came in, they had to make me repeat my name,
date of birth and check my wristband.
Even though I had the same nurse all day in brackets,
I'm guessing it was just to make sure I was the right patient.
They do do that, actually.
I think it's also probably to make sure you're not off your bait as well.
Do you think?
Probably.
Because if you go name an agent,
they've got probably no more morphine for you
because you're off your bait.
In America, they do, don't they?
In America, they've got really strong painkillers.
It's nowhere near as strong over here.
Do you know when you see...
Oh, the YouTube videos where people have had their wisdom teeth out.
Yeah, they're amazing.
What is that, then?
Yeah, they give you...
Isn't there a massive... I don't want to go Yeah, they give you... Isn't there a massive...
I don't want to go too deep into this,
but isn't there a massive epidemic in America
because they give people painkillers for a reason
and they get addicted to them?
And then they get really addicted.
Yes, there is, yeah.
Probably not a suitable subject matter for the podcast,
but let's carry on anyway.
No, but it's a fact, though.
It's true.
They do do that.
Keep it light there.
Keep it light.
Keep it light.
Light hearted.
Sorry, everyone.
However, one time I was chilling in bed
and a nurse came and pulled my curtain away
and said would you like to take your phone with you or leave it here i was very confused but ann
said oh i'll take it with me in brackets i had no idea where i was going wow my dad who sat next to
me looked at me with a very confused look on his face he asked the nurse where i was going and she
looked at me and said oh are you not the patient going into theatre?
My dad then stepped in and explained that I was the wrong person
and I pointed to the patient in the bed opposite me
who had been waiting for her surgery all day and said,
I think you mean her.
The nurse looked very embarrassed as she had almost took the wrong person into surgery.
Goodness me!
The worst part is, she was so close to wheeling my bed away
that if my dad had not been there
I would have been too shy to say anything
and would have ended up having the operation
purely out of politeness.
That's the most British thing in the world.
That's great.
What was rather strange
is that she didn't ask for my name,
date of birth or check my wristband or anything
so they could have quite literally cut me open.
I wonder what it was for.
I don't think she worked there.
Ooh.
She might have just been harvesting kidneys,
wake up in a bath of ice, eh?
Oh my word, yeah.
What films did they do that in?
Oh, loads of them.
What's the good one?
I mean...
Tom Cruise.
And he ends up in...
Is it Minority Report?
Oh my God, no.
Like, no. You get... up in is it Minority Report? Oh my god no like no you get
What film is it?
What? Name me one of your favourite
sci-fi films ever. Minority Report
Yeah and how can you not remember
he gets what's called a shine job
he gets his eyes changed
because of the retinal scanner
No it's not no
No
that's not what I was talking about we were talking about
when people get their kidneys stolen
well
and waking up with a bath of ice
right well he woke up
he didn't have his kidneys stolen
but he had his retinas taken out
he booked it himself
he needed it to get back
into the main bit
it's the whole
what the fuck
you love that film
I do
no one stole his eyes
oh my god You love that film. I did. No one stole his eyes. Oh my God.
You can't remember anything.
How do you remember how to feed your kids?
Because you can't remember fuck all else.
Maybe you should stop remembering shitty films
and start remembering important and stuff.
Never.
Eh?
Never.
Important and stuff.
Never.
Oh, hey.
I do love that film.
I'd watch that again, actually.
Yeah, you fucking have to,
but there's so many things you don't know
