he just cries at the top of the stairs
and I just go, fuck my arse.
Anyway, so he falls asleep downstairs.
It's actually fine.
Put him to bed last night,

Hello and welcome back to this week's episode of
Is it okay to talk about your son Stiffy?
On a national podcast
Because that's the conversation we've just had
i don't know any other job where there's a little break so that's technically a break i mean we only
broke for about 20 seconds while i just exported the file and i just don't know any other job
where you're going just just thinking about that chat we just had is it is it okay to talk about a
seven-year-old's erect penis on a podcast?
I think it is.
I think, you know, I think.
You're not going to embarrass me.
You've never listened to it.
No, and we can get away with stuff when they're this age,
but obviously as they get older.
Well, it's like Instagram.
Robin is very rarely on my Instagram anymore because he just said something a while ago of,
he doesn't really know about it.
He doesn't know how many people look at it.
He doesn't get, he doesn't know social media.
But he flippantly once said,
don't put it on Instagram.
And I was like,
I never would if he didn't want us to.
And then the older he's got,
I'm like,
actually you need to start
just having a bit of a private life as a kid.
Yeah, 100%.
Because the Instagram got a lot,
it got big quite quick.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And then,
you know,
same with Rafe.
We can't decide what they,
how they want to be in the public eye.
Yeah.
And I think when they're little,
though, you can get away with it
because it doesn't matter
because everything's cute when you're little,
but as you get older,
you know what I mean?
Although something did happen the other day
in the garden,
which I haven't told you about.
Okay.
And I didn't, Kate listens,
my sister listens to this podcast.
Right.
So she hasn't seen her kids' willies' penises
for years, right?
Because they're like 13 and 14 right sorry
that's that's she's just stating a fact there by the way she's not pining for them no no no no
because obviously they've got older and she's like haven't seen in four years yeah I'm like oh
and then um I let the kids wee in the garden have a wild week so I'm like it doesn't matter it's
just we like in the gardens private, I'm not lost.
Anyway, our youngest was having a wee the other day.
And I didn't say it to her, but I thought in my head,
do you not want to have a quick look?
That's terrible.
That's terrible.
Like, I'm intrigued.
So you must be intrigued.
So weird.
I know.
We didn't.
I didn't say anything. Listen, I've just got a really vivid memory of something i don't think i've told anyone i definitely haven't told you what i
remember this is getting little erections when i was a kid right and i used to wear a little um
i've got a really vivid memory i used to wear a little y front little y fronts little from like
wherever marks and spencer's are as they're wherever the hell they were from right and oh
no i don't think as i did clothes then yeah i don't know i bet they were from, right? And, oh no, I don't think Asda did clothes then. Yeah, I don't know.
Asda didn't do clothes.
I bet they were from C&A.
I bet they were from British Home Stores or C&A.
Yeah, I remember C&A.
Well, wherever they were from,
I've got a very vivid memory of having an erection
and it bored a full hole in the front of it.
What do you mean?
Bored a hole.
Like, I've got a very vivid memory of having an erection
in a little Y front as a child
and it was fully through the front.
It just drilled a hole in the front of the Y.
It came through the material?
It came through the material.
What's the matter with you?
You can't cage the beast.
I'm serious.
Is that why you got circumcised?
No.
I was already circumcised at the time.
I got circumcised when I was really young.
But I've got vivid memories of waking up or whatever
and it just got a full hole through the front of the...
That's something wrong with that. That is so weird. Really strange, isn't it? I it just got a full hole through the front of the that's something wrong
with that
that is so weird
really strange isn't it
I haven't got a particularly
sharp penis
I never have had
but a full
just through
like ripped a hole
like the Incredible Hulk
through the middle
I've got a really
vivid memory of that
isn't that weird
you might want to
unlock some childhood trauma
that you've got going on
what because my mum
bought shitty underpants
that's awful
that's horrible
how's it awful
I don't know
just weird
I took Rafe's nappy off the other day right and I just pulled going on? What, because my mum bought shitty underpants? That's awful. That's horrible. How's it awful? I don't know. Just weird.
I took Rafe's nappy off the other day
and I just pulled
his little shorts up
for a bit
and he like
grabbed his thing
and looked at this
and he was like
grabbing it
and he was just
looking at it
and like
this is nice, isn't it?
Nice, eh?
Nice.
We actually had
a little conversation
and I was like
is that nice?
Welcome to the rest
of your life, mate.
Because bless him he doesn't have his nappy off much
because he's just like
keeps
just shits everywhere
I'm just like
do you remember
when I was the second kid
with the first kid
I remember I used to have
loads of no nappy time
with Robin
so I was like
it's good for him
but now I'm like
he's just shitting piss
now go on
keep an eye on him
I got him out the bath yesterday
and he pissed on the bedroom floor
oh he loves it
and then I went and he was only a tiny bit and he was like wee wee and I was like come on, keep an eye on him. I got him out of the bath yesterday and he pissed on the bedroom floor. Oh, he loves it. And then I went,
and it was only a tiny bit
and he was like,
wee, wee.
And I was like,
come on, we'll go to the toilet.
And I stood him in front of the toilet
and he didn't know what I was going to do.
And I put my hands under his arms
and he started screaming.
Oh yeah, he's terrified.
I think he thought I was going to put him in the toilet.
No, he's terrified of the toilet.
Yeah.
I'm dreading potty training.
I actually, I said before.
You did all the Robin one though.
I'm going to have to be here for this.
I was away when you did Robin.
Oh, look at you.
I was on tour.
Look at you.
Well, I've got no sort of experience doing it,
so you should probably just take the lead on this one as well.
No, I had to read a book before I did it.
Oh, did it hurt?
Are we all right?
Did I learn to read?
Skimmed it.
Skimmed it.
I just bribed him.
Right.
Every time he had a wee or a poo,
I'd give him a chocolate button.
Right.
Wow.
Okay.
Well, if he did a a poo he got like more
wow yeah
but for wees
it's like
training a dog
every time he did a wee in the potty
he got chocolate
wow
I don't even know if that's what you meant to do
but it worked
did it work
yeah
I did
when's that parenting book you're writing coming out
do you know what it is
stick carrot
carrot stick
chocolate button massive poo how to bribe your
kids and oh just speaking of that though i would just like to write a parenting book
which just shits all over general parenting yeah because i i haven't got time for general
parents bits of it yes fair enough i think it's really good to talk to kids but if i see another
parent trying to coax their child away from a situation
by just asking please i'm gonna lose my shit yeah like come on let's go time to go
get out now get in that fucking car five four three yeah yeah yeah what happens when you get
to one mom well you don't know because we've never had to get there.
Have we, son?
Get in the car.
No.
There we have it.
Have you been there, though,
when parents are like...
Yeah, God, yeah.
Oh, Jesus.
That's awful.
Oh, it drives me mad.
That's awful.
Drives me mad.
Grab their hand and walk.

Now!
Get a pair of lungs on you, man, love.
Get a pair of lungs on you.
Give him a shout.
Oh, anyway.
Rosie's book.
Chapter one.
Potty training versus tooth decay.
Every time you have a wee in the potty, you get some chocolate.
Just a button.
If you don't drink too much water, you'll have fillings by the time you're five.
You can't be squeezing them out because I'll know.
I know the difference.
Hold on, you've just melted those three
buttons and wiped them into the potty to try
and get more chocolate.
Mommy knows.
Mother knows best.
That's what I'm going to call my book.
Mother Knows Best.
Right, okay.
Or, Mother Knows Best.
Sexist.
Yeah, Mother Knows Best, hashtag, do as I say, not as I do.
I can't wait.
It'll be out next spring.
It will not.
I watched your head bleed when we tried to write our first book,
and now you're not tackling one on your own.
Honestly, I think my worst nightmare is you deciding to write a book again and me having to be roped in
on it for no money it would be like it would be like helping the burns with the homework but worse
oh god please don't ever do another book oh jesus oh god no just a little shout uh we did mention
it last week but we're going to mention it again.
We are long listed for an NTA.
If you could just quickly,
dead quickly,
Google NTA,
National Television Awards 2023.
Find our bit.
Vote for us.
We're in the best interview show for the Chris and Rosie Ramsey show.
And do you know what?
It'd be lovely to get shortlisted
and get to go there
and make fools of ourselves again
and get pissed.
Honestly, I'd kind of like,
yes, but no.
Because they're trying to find something to wear
and having to go through the rigmarole of all that, Chris.
It's very stressful.
You just hoi on a suit.
You just hoi on a suit and look fine.
How dare you?
There's a lot of prep.
How dare you just shoot down the meticulous planning
that goes into my garments and my fashion sense.
I just hoi on a suit.
You do.
You all do.
Yeah, no, it's a piece of piss.
But it's not as dressy,
I don't think,
as the BAFTAs, is it?
We've never been.
Don't know.
Be good fun.
I bet it's a right laugh.
If we win, we should go on
and say,
oh, it's so good to get this BAFTA,
thank you,
and then walk off.
Stick the script.
Babadoo, babadoo, babadoo, bah!
Sandra has been at it again
yeah
actually not going to believe
what she's done this time
right so this was
I sort of glimpsed
you and your mum
you and your sister
shouting at your mum
for something in the garden yesterday
and then this morning
you tried to tell us
what Sandra had done
and I said hold it for the podcast
I'm all ears
I'm very excited
so we were away
the other week
and we missed
my cousin's
son's christening.
Yeah.
Right.
Gutted.
Love a christening.
Personally buzzing
but carry on.
It's just a piss up in there.
It's good fun.
Anyway we missed it
because we were
at the BAFTAs.
Yeah.
My mum had raided
my wardrobe
right
and she was like
you've got some nice clothes.
I was like
oh thank you very much.
And she borrowed a dress which is fine right. It's absolutely fine. I don't've got some nice clothes. I was like, oh, thank you very much. And she borrowed a dress,
which is fine, right?
It's absolutely fine.
I don't mind anyone
borrowing me clothes.
Sorry, before you tell this,
we also came back
and the rail had fallen down
inside the wardrobe.
Oh, yeah,
but she reckoned it wasn't her.
She claims she has no idea
about that.
Blatantly her.
Carry on.
So she borrowed a dress,
which I was like,
that's absolutely fine.
Do you know what she did
to the dress?
She ripped it off
and spilled something on it. you done she altered the dress
she's literally took it in to her size
like what is that is that a mother thing like does she is she like i own you
and i own this dress fuck it's a hell of a slam that way. It is, isn't it? So she's altered it.
Didn't tell us though, right?
Didn't tell us.
And I didn't see any pictures of me mam the christening,
which I found a bit odd.
And then, right, this is another thing.
So she's altered it, right?
So I don't know if it can go back to my size.
Depends how she's done it, but I doubt it very much.
I mean, unless she's just sort of tacked it in.
I don't know.
She didn't say fully, right?
But I was like, okay, thank you.
It's not a new dress, thank God.
The kicker, right?
She's been on Vinted.
Right.
She's found it on Vinted.
Right.
In her size.
She's bought it for eight quid.
Oh, right.
Okay, I thought you were going to say she's flogged it on Vinted.
No, so she's bought...
No, I mean, I wouldn't be surprised.
So she's bought the dress again in her size for eight quid on Vinted.
So she's ruined yours,
made yours now unwearable.
Uh-huh, and now she's bought her own?
And now bought her own.
Wow, that's amazing.
What's wrong with that?
Wow.
Speaking of,
have you heard of Vinted?
No.
Well, everyone keeps talking about it.
I think me mum and Kate
are just like obsessed.
They're buying everything off there, right?
But this is the weird thing.
Everything they've told me
that they've bought,
they've like got a dress
and I'm like,
oh nice,
my Kate's like eight quid. I'm like oh good i've got a got a new bag eight quid so everything's eight quid why is everything eight quid why is it can you not just put maximum price it's not to put
eight pound maximum probably probably but you know what it is that gets so competitive so like
some lass had something on for 12 quid my Kate off had 9 right not even 8
and the lass was like
no my Kate was like
well
fuck you
she's like
lost a sale
lost a sale
I was willing to pay
9 pound for that
just like
lost a sale
I remember
so upset
god I've just had
another memory
I remember
I was at a
car boot sale with my dad once remember I was at a car boot sale
with my dad once
when I was younger
and my dad was doing
yeah he had the work
he borrowed the work van
for the weekend
and he had the car boot sale
out the back of it right
and I walked around
and obviously
I was just young
and I wanted to buy loads of shit
and I found a Subbuteo
an old like classic
oh is that when you flick
the football little people
fucking shit to be fair
like what a rubbish game
it doesn't make any sense so I had Rosie I had I had a full set right and then I had like Oh, is that when you flick the football, little people? Fucking shit, to be fair. Like, what a rubbish game.
It doesn't make any sense.
Rosie, I had a full set, right?
And then I had, like, obviously two teams.
And then I had the away strips as well.
And I also had a little kicker for doing free kicks where you pulled his leg back and it flicked forward.
So he's like a special one you brought on for free kicks.
And I had another one which was on a little sort of spring
where he's hands in the air for throw-ins so i had all the little
i remember walking around and i went and saw my dad he was like if you say anything
you know like come back and tell us if you want to get something don't get loads of stuff i came
back and i was like i've seen subito he went right how much is that was like five pound he was like
right and he gave us four quid and he was, don't spend more than four quid on it.
Don't.
I know he gave us the five, but he said, keep a pound in your pocket and tell him you've
only got four quid.
And I was like, I was a kid.
So I went, I've got four quid.
The guy went, it's five.
So I just gave him the five and went, it's five.
Grumbled immediately.
I came back.
My dad was raging.
He was like, where's the quid?
I was like, I paid.
He was like, you paid full price.
Raging. Where's his car boot
I can't have a word
that dad man
oh horrible
horrible
I remember right now
the stickers for car boot sales
like 50 pence a pound
just class wasn't it
absolutely loved a car boot sale
yeah subutio
I think
is the nicest word
ever in a Geordie accent
subutio
yes
that's quite good isn't it
isn't that do it again subutioie accent. Subutio. Yes. That's quite good, isn't it? Isn't that? Do it again.
Subutio.
Subutio.
Subutio.
We should make it, like, is it still a thing now?
Because we should make a drink called Subutio.
Right.
But it's a game.
No, it's not.
No one's buying Subutio anymore.
I guarantee you there's probably,
I will put money on the fact that
there's probably still
leisure centres around the country
where people meet up
on a Sunday or a Saturday afternoon
and play Subutio
with each other.
Do you think?
I will put my
fucking life on it.
Well, let's call it
Subutios.
I feel like we're going to get sued.
And what's this drink going to be?
Dunno.
You just like the word.
Yeah, I just think
we should do something, Jodie.
I want to franchise something,
you know.
I want to do something in my life. I want to franchise something you know I want to do something
in my life
I want to sell something
Subway?
Domino's?
No no no no
I just want to sell something
on the sly
like all the housewives do
they've all got a brand
I want to do something
no no no
you just want a fucking event
don't you
you want an event
an opening event
for your brand
no I would never have
an opening event
opening events
terrify me
if nobody comes
are you fucking kidding me
I was glad the book
came out in lockdown
so we didn't have to do a book party.
Fuck that.
Rosie, can you invite everyone on social media?
What, all the people who I've denied going to their things?
Oh, yeah, aye, they'll all come.
Of course they will.
No, God, jeez.
But yeah.
You're not made for this world, are you?
No, I'm really not.
Nah.
Nah.

Lost a bit of weight.
Right.
Funny that, innit?
Yes, we had, innit?
Just can't.
It's almost like it's an extremely simple equation.
It's as if eating less shit does what you want it to do.
It's so odd.
So odd.
Right.
Uh-huh.
Watch your beef, because you teased it earlier.
I feel like I might know what it is.
Oh, right.
So, Chris has got a bad neck.
He's always got a bad fucking neck.
Well, actually, because you've got a bit of scoliosis, haven't you?
Got a bit of scoliosis going on?
I found out.
I found out.
I think we've said it before.
I'm scolioed.
I'm scolied up.
Yeah, just a little bit.
Can't lean back.
You know when you lean back with your spine and you can arch your back?
Oh, you did it a few weeks ago.
Horrible.
It's fucking awful to watch.
I bend at the hips and I'm just straight.
Oh, Jesus.
Yeah, like this lamp here
that i'm next to which doesn't work because we're on an audio medium but uh yeah i just bend back
like a foley ruler at school something bad about that you know it would be a lot sexier if you were
a bit more flexible why don't know just think it'd be nice right you obviously haven't seen
his own round on the mat your hips are good hips don't lie um so ch Chris has got a bad neck and he's got a bad neck
currently because he keeps
doing flips on the trampoline which I've
told him stop doing flips on the
trampoline because if you break your neck or if
something happens you could die
and we've got a lot going on at the minute.
Nothing to do with
care or love for me
just because we've got loads going on.
One, you're wrong. It's not off doing back flips. You actually said the other day Cair neu ffwrdd i mi, oherwydd mae llawer o beth yn digwydd. Un, rydych chi'n anghywir, nid oes o ddweud bod yn gwneud backflips.
Fe wnaethoch chi ddweud y diwrnod y llaw.
Mae o ddweud bod yn gwneud backflips.
Y backflips, gallaf ddod a chynnal bob amser.
Beth sy'n digwydd yw, rwy'n ymdrin yn ymlaen pan rwy'n gwneud backflip.
Rydw i a Robin yn gwneud ychydig o'r ddau yma yma.
Rydyn ni'n mynd ar y trampolín ac yna'n mynd ac yn ddod a chynnal ar fy ngwaelod
ac yna'n cymryd yn ôl ac yn sgwrn.
Rwy'n mynd i'r ysgol ac yna'n cymryd a chynnal ar fy ngwaelod
ac yna'n cymryd yn ôl ac yn mynd.
Yn wir, nid wyf yn hapus. Ie. Roedd hynny'n wych iawn. Mae'n hynod o hwyl. Mae'n hynod o hwyl. Ond stop yn gwneud hynny. Rwy'n ymdrin yn ymlaen pan rwy'n ei wneud. bouncing back up but shouting I'm going to bed and then landing on my back and then bouncing back up going actually I'm not tired
it was fucking great
it was really fun
but I tense up when I do it
you're going to hurt yourself
right
the problem is
the problem is right
Robin
we've got a trampoline in the garden
and Robin's got
he goes to a trampoline in class
and I sometimes stand and watch
and the bloke
who does it
he's very good
oh my god
the most graceful man
I've ever seen
on a trampoline in my life
but he's you know he's a bit bigger than me like he's a bit I wouldn't walk past him and think he's really good. Oh my God. The most graceful man I've ever seen on a trampoline in my life. But he's a bit bigger than me.
I wouldn't walk past him and think he's really good at the trampoline.
Well, that's the thing.
He doesn't look like it.
And again, one of the choreographers on Strictly is,
he didn't look like he was going to be an amazing dancer.
And he started moving.
And I was like, you must absolutely wipe the floor with everyone at weddings.
They look so unassuming.
And this guy's exactly the same.
Rosie, did I tell you?
The trampoline instructor I caught is filming him. No, why arenaethwn i ddweud wrthych chi, bod y gweithiwr trampolini yn ffilmio'r cyfarfod?
Nid. Pam mae'n ffilmio?
Oherwydd roeddwn i'n ei anfon i'r ladau.
Roeddwn i'n sgwrsio gyda'i ffrindiau,
ac yn dweud, dwi wedi cyfarfod y trampolini,
ac rwy'n gweld y ffermwr.
Dwi'n gwybod, dwi'n gweld. Mae plant yn ymwneud â'r ffermwr.
Roeddwn i'n ffilmio'r ffermwr. Roeddwn i'n ei anfon i'r ladau.
Roeddwn i'n ei anfon i'r ladau.
Roeddwn i'n gweld, roeddwn i'n gweld.
Roeddwn i'n gweld, roeddwn i'n gweld. Roeddwn watch him do stuff and i come back and i try it i don't even watch rob i don't know
how robin's getting on in that trampoline class i watch the guy but i see him do stuff and i think
right i'll go and i'll come back just do it once the tv show is done once honestly 10 years time
because this will probably be done by then why everything no but we're doing this with everything
we'll have tried i can't do anything you don't let us go up ladders right you won't let us do we're self-employed chris you're self-employed if
something happens to you you've got no fucking insurance i have literally got insurance we've
literally got not pay it's not no no well just stop it right well it would help me school yours
this is probably good for me no like i don't want to be in years to come. Like, why did you feed your husband
all these meals?
Because he was playing
on the trampoline.
Do you know what I mean?
If it was something good though.
What an extremely grim
picture of our future
you just painted
in just a few words.
If it was something good,
if it was something worthwhile
and I thought I was proud of him
that he's done
and this has happened
or like a fatal accident,
not on the fucking trampoline, Chris. Right, okay. Have a bit of respect that he's done and this has happened. Right. Or like a fatal accident. Right.
Not on the fucking trampoline, Chris. Right, okay.
Have a bit of respect.
No more backdrops.
Thank you.
I'll just do backflips.
Front drops, seat drops.
I can do seat drops with a twist.
I can do seat drop two,
front drop two.
Stop.
Nobody cares.
What's your beef with me?
Can't believe you let us go on that long.
Okay, my beef with you is,
right,
and I wrote down exactly
what happened here.
The other day,
you were in a bit of a bad mood
stomping about. It's not like me. Right, not like you at all uh g1 obviously hashtag g1 you
were stomping about uh and i thought i'll make this better here and i was like look are you all
right and you went no not really and i went right look would you like a cuddle and i quote as i
wrote it straight down because it was pretty hurtful, your exact words were,
no, no, Chris, I do not want a cuddle.
I don't even want to be touched today.
Dot, dot, dot, little pause.
So don't even try.
And then he walked away.
And it's just a lovely little vibe to have in the house.
It's a nice energy, nice energy to be around.
Honestly, some days I just don't want to be touched.
I read something on the internet a while ago about mothers
just being like oversensitized.
And I never realized, I never knew it was a thing.
And I always wondered why I felt by the end of the day,
just like, oh God, like, do you know what I mean?
Don't, like if you hugged us in bed and that,
I'd be like, oh, fucking hell.
It's because I've just been touched all day,
just all day, nonstop.
And sometimes I just,
I just don't want anyone to fucking touch us.
Anyone?
Anybody?
Anybody.
Especially you.
Husband.
And you wonder why I'm seeking solace
in trampolines and jujitsu.
Do I go to jujitsu?
Do you know why I go to jujitsu?
Because I get physical contact with other humans.
Oh, God.
Good, good.
Because then you don't come home and crave it from them.
Bloody good cuddle with the lads in my keys, right?
You just love a cuddle, though.
You would cuddle me all the time.
I thought I was a cuddler until I met you.
You are borderline bloody...
Cuddle Chris.
Mr. Cuddle.
You love a cuddle?
Captain Cuddle.
Captain Cuddle.
Who's Captain Cuddle?
I'm just made it up.
Me?
Captain Cuddle.
Captain Cuddle.
He's a hero.
You're going to get depression down to zero.
Hey everyone, it's Captain Cuddle.
Arms wide open. Not a day. Oh look, it's his arch nemesis. Don to zero. Hey, everyone. It's Captain Cuddle. Arms wide open.
Not today.
Oh, look.
It's his arch nemesis.
Don't touch me today, woman.
Not today.
Not ever.
Get away, Captain Cuddle.
Come here.
Should we make a YouTube video?
No, I can't be arsed.
Right.
Oh, speaking of can't be arsed.
Aye.
Hang on.
I recorded you earlier on
Oh Jesus
Because
Oh God
You're such a
miserable bastard
and I just knew
that your answer
would be miserable
I asked Chris
if we could record
the podcast outside
Oh you were recording
this I hate it
when you do this
I asked Chris
because I knew
I just knew
he'd be like
no we can't
Because you knew
it was a stupid idea
you can't record
a podcast outside
But you give such
a long mansplplaining reason.
Right.
I'm on my laptop.
Are you typing?
Crikey.
You break the bench.
I went to the utility.
Question.
Can we...
Thank you.
Can we do the podcast outside today?
Er, no.
Why?
Cos the sound will be weird.
Be nice if they don't hear the birds.
I think they'll do it with their fucking heads in
and I think if there's any wind on the mic,
we'll not know until it's done
and then we'll send it to Daisy and she'll go,
oh, there was a load of fucking echoing and wind
and it sounds terrible, you're going to have to do it again.
We go, OK, we're going to have to go down
and do it tomorrow
I get it
I know it's a lovely idea
but how about we sit
and we just fucking lash it out
and then we sit outside
for half an hour
I knew you'd say that one
I fucking knew you'd say that one
because it's super
I didn't know
it's windy
such a dick
alright alright
eh no
and he has white
but do you know what it is right
it's because you
like you and your mom are so weird.
My brain works quite quick, and I go straight.
Obviously, I catastrophize, so I go straight to the worst possible thing,
which would be it fucked up, and we'll have to do it again.
But you and your mom say yes and get buzzing about something
before you've even surveyed the land.
Do you know what I mean?
Yeah.
It's so weird.
Poor positivity, Chris.
No, but it's just like,
just so fucking like,
just so strange.
Like,
I don't know,
I can't think of an example
to top me off,
but something like you'd be like,
oh, ma'am,
why don't we pack
some massive bags now
and walk down to the beach
and we'll have like a massive picnic
at the beach
and she'll go,
oh yeah,
that'll be great.
And then you realise
that you don't have bags big enough.
It's too late to walk down.
It's actually not picnic weather. You don't really have big enough it's too late to walk down it's actually not
picnic weather
you don't really have
any food
and you've actually
both just had your tea
but first
the first answer
would have been
yeah definitely
and then all of the
but where is that
it's not
it's a stupid way to live
and you're wasting time
and I got from A to B there
and I nipped in the bud
and I think
and here we are
recording it inside
so I fucking won anyway
didn't I
listen
do you want to cuddle
no not surprised Captain Cuddle sens? Listen, do you want to cuddle? No.
Not surprised.
Captain Cuddle sensed that you didn't want to cuddle.

Dear Rosie and
Chris, a long time listener, first time emailer.
I have an ick.
Love an ick, love an ick, love an ick.
Currently on holiday. I'm very excited for my holiday.
That's why I read this. I've said that so
many times today, it's starting to do me headache. It's just because you're not coming.
So... People watching watching so sorry currently on holiday people watching on the
beach and that's thankfully that's not the year they're putting okay see a fully grown man having
his sun cream put on his front for him by his partner what the fuck you lazy bastard why in capital letters that is i get that why i've seen so many men of a
certain age whose wives are putting on the cream on the front for them why because they just because
i don't know weird wouldn't catch people our age doing it or younger nah it's very much an it's
very much an older thing really yeah horrible that, horrible. That's really strange. If you said to me,
put my cream on my front,
I'd be like, absolutely.
Well, if you were putting...
Cream your tits, mate.
Cream your own tits.
If you were creaming my back
and you started going around the front,
I'd be like, what the fuck are you doing?
Yeah, I know.
I'd push you away.
I'd be like, get off this people looking.
What the hell?
It's still caressing.
Yeah.
I've seen it.
I actually have a memory
of somebody with a hairy chest
and someone doing it
oh do you know
what makes me feel
violently sick
wow
sun cream right
and people putting it on
when they've got
loads of rings on
ah yeah yeah yeah
no I don't like that at all
just putting loads on
with all and all
and their rings
and that
just like
sun cream in itself
makes me really really anxious
I hate it
I don't mind i
think it smells nice i hate it like i like the sort of mist spray but i know it's not as good
but like i've got a thing as well about sun cream and getting in a car you've got a thing about
creams or like grease and creams in general it's like this morning i was taking the kids to me
mom and dad's and you were like put some some cream on before they go. Immediately, I just thought of like
creamy cuffs on seats.
Yeah, yeah.
I can't.
Right, well,
great,
because we're kids
are going to come back
with third degree burns.
Where do you think we are?
The fucking...
Well,
Venus.
The sun's the sun, right?
Your mum...
Right, great.
Okay.
Right.
Robin, Rave,
time to put your cream on.
No. Okay, all right. Okay, it's fine. It's fine. Don't worry. Robin, Rave, time to put your cream on. No.
Okay, all right.
Okay, it's fine.
It's fine.
Don't worry.
It's just a little bit of burn.
Your mum and dad will take care of you later.
No.
It's fine.
They'll have time.
I told them to put it on them.
They'll put it on them.
I told them.
And it's the spray, so it's a piece of piss.
Yeah.
Good.
Robin now wants to put it on Rave all the time, which is...
That's quite cute.
It is cute, but it's irritating, isn't it?
Because it's like, all right, go and put it on him and mess his body
completely
got it all over the floor
it looked like
everlasting bird shit
the other day
I had to go and hose it up
babadoo babadoo babadoo
dear Chris and Rosie
please keep me anonymous
you're literally
the only people
I can share this with
as well
you'll see
last weekend
my mum hosted lunch
at her house
myself
girlfriend
and dog
all arrived
and were milling
around the kitchen
waiting for my brother and family to arrive.
My mum joined and the conversation was normal,
asking about our weeks and what we had been up to.
At some point,
by the way, I think this is a same-sex couple,
this is a lesbian couple.
Okay.
I still can't get around,
I'm still reeling off the phrase
my mum hosted lunch at her house.
I know, it's lush that, innit?
What do you mean?
She hosted lunch?
Just had everyone round for lunch. What, them two and the dog? No, and then her brother was I know it's lunch, isn't it? Hosted lunch? Just had everyone
round for lunch.
What, them two and the dog?
No, and then our brother
was coming.
Oh, right, okay.
Just hosted lunch.
I've never heard it said like that.
Because we're common, Chris.
We had dinner with my mans.
We're very common.
Yeah.
People speak like this,
you know, in real life.
Hosted lunch?
Yes.
People sometimes say
we hosted lunch.
Really?
Yeah.
Oh, God.
We don't talk like that.
We say we had everyone round.
Fosgran.
Fosgran.
Or bait.
Everyone round the stuff,
their fieses.
Had a bottle of
Sibutiola.
What's that, Chris?
Marketing.
Okay.
At some point, I bent over to remove the dog's lead and harness and felt i was being dry humped from behind thinking it was my girlfriend messing about i laughed but then
i looked up to see my girlfriend stood in front of me looking horrified i was dry humped by my own mum the shame i don't know what she was thinking it's never happened before and was
quite out of the blue we laughed it off at the time but the trauma is real now whenever my
girlfriend and i are debating who needs to do something around the house she taunts me with
did i get bummed by my mum though it says at the end please adopt me
oh bummed by your mom oh bless oh wow that's terrible that why has she done that i don't
i just bent over i've been like
i don't think i'd ever recover from that no but, but, well, your mum would never do it.
My mum would possibly do that.
I will probably do that when I'm a mum.
But these are the kind of people who say,
my mum hosted lunch.
I don't think she does this kind of thing.
Right, yeah.
I wonder whether the mum has seen it some way
and thought it's like a fun thing,
like a viral thing.
It's what the kids do.
A prank, yeah.
Yeah, rather than it's an
action it's a sex act you know what i mean i think i don't think anyone's that stupid i think everyone
knows what humman is you never know wow
hello came out of my garden this morning to see my neighbors had put a new sign up on their pagoda. What's a pagoda?
Pagoda?
Pagoda.
Pagoda.
Pagoda.
Why is this episode,
why is this episode shaming me for being working class?
We've got a pagoda.
What the fuck's a pagoda?
It's like the wooden thing, man.
Oh, the thing at the top that the birds sit on and shit a big line of shit on the floor.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Right, okay.
And Robin hangs on like monkey bars.
That's it.
Pointless.
So it says,
I put the sign up
with the perfect view
from our back door.
Thoughts, right?
I'll tell you what it says.
The sign,
it's only small, right?
It's just like a little one.
So probably,
what's that size?
You're holding your hands
about the size of a...
Half an ear four.
About the size of a letterbox.
Yeah, about the size of a letterbox.
And it says on the thing,
posh other next door.
That's what it says.
Fucking shots fired.
And it's faced into their garden
so they can sing it.
She's put,
friendly with these neighbours,
we'll have a chat occasionally,
but not friends.
Completely out the blue.
They're like devastated.
Wow.
That is a,
that's a dig.
Isn't it?
Because I was,
when you first said it, I was taken aback
because does it mean...
Does it not mean that their house...
Do they not mean that it's posher than their own house?
That's the joke.
That it's their little outside bit and it's better than the inside bit.
Is that the joke?
Or does it actually mean posher than the next door neighbours?
I don't know.
I couldn't put that...
I'd have to knock on them and explain the joke.
Yeah, but why have they put it up?
And it's so obviously
like facing into their garden.
Wow.
This little sign saying
posher than next door.
Posher than next door.
As in like they are posher than them.
That is a fucking...
So weird, isn't it?
That's really snide.
That's how good you'd be.
That's really snide.
It's not throwing your grass cuttings
over their fence.
I know.
Fucking hell.
I know.
Wow.
Babadoo, babadoo, babadoo, bah.
Dear Chris and Rosie,
we are a group of four friends
sat around drinking and talking about
embarrassing stories involving our kids
and sex lives.
And I continued to tell them
how my two boys found my dildo one day
and came down the stairs waving it about.
Crikey.
I told them it was a model of Daddy's Willie
from his vasectomy operation he had,
which they bought.
Why would you?
I don't understand why you would make a model.
Oh, that's so good.
Very quick, very quick.
Yeah, you know, in a few years,
they're going to go,
oh, that wasn't a model of Daddy's Willie, was it?
Yeah.
You touched it.
Yeah. My friend it. Yeah.
My friend continued to tell us a story of how her mother-in-law,
early 50s, lost her husband, in brackets, the same age.
And the day after he passed,
the whole family gathered around her bed and consoled her.
All grown-up children and partners, in brackets, six of them,
were crying and cuddling her when she decided to grab the tin of mints
from the bedside table and offer them round when she quickly realised it didn't contain
mints it had her dead husband's cock ring along with some mints
imagine imagine why were they all
around her bed
well because her
husband's just died
well she's just not
ill though
no I know
well she might
excuse me
if you think I'm not
having a week in bed
when you die
you're joking aren't you
you only asked about
the insurance
you'll be down
at the fucking bank
you
you've got to look upset
no but imagine
being like
he was just so lovely so very young being like, it's just so lovely,
so very young actually,
50s, it's awful.
That's tragic.
But then,
anybody for a mint?
Oh, wow.
We've been talking a lot.
Sorry,
who keeps your cock ring with a mint?
Who's got cock rings?
Well, people have got rings.
Have you got a cock ring?
No, I haven't got a cock ring.
What do they do again?
It depends what kind
you buy
what do you mean
from
I've never been in a
sexual
listen
I'm quite experienced
but I've never been
in a sexual
encounter
with a cock ring
tell me about cock rings
Chris
have you ever used one
welcome to my
TED talk about
cock rings
yes
but they're basically
have you used one
get one
tell
oh god you're thinking over're basically have you used one see and get one tell oh god
you think you know someone
when have you used one
so
who whisper
hey no
tell us
stop it
stop it
he's grinning like a
checkered little cock
just remembering the good times
so
it's
it depends
so there can be
I'm joking man
it depends
so they can be placed sort of man it depends so they can be placed
sort of half way
down
to get like a little ridge
so there's like a little
you know
a bit of
what's the word
a change in
what
texture
right
so like there's a little
like a little speed bump
or I think they'll be put
right at the base
and someone's got
a little vibrating thing
on them
remember the man
Durex brought them out
and they had a little
vibrating thing on them and they vibratedurex brought them out and they had a little vibrating thing on them?
They vibrated.
I remember.
So who's that for?
That's for the woman?
For both.
When you've been using them?
Listen, I'm not talking about this on the podcast, right?
I need to know those separately.
I think it's when they came out years ago, man.
You mustn't have liked it because you've never...
No, they're rubbish.
...used the tins.
No, they're absolutely rubbish.
It's enough rigmarole going on.
I know, I just don't I know I just don't understand
I just don't understand
I don't understand
how people are using
all of these toys
in the throes of passion
like putting
like I've said it before
like fucking
like a sniper
like opening his case
and screwing all the bits
out of his gun
do you know what it is
time
yeah
got a lot of time
but it's
yeah
I wouldn't be keeping
it with my mints
I would not be keeping
it with my mints
why
if it's been around you know I would not be keeping it with mints. Why?
If it's been around, you know... I mean, how much are you washing it
before you put it in with your mints?
I mean, if you just put that straight in,
you're basically sucking yourself off, essentially,
if you're going to have one of them mints.
And also, mints...
Will it not sting if it gets all mint on it?
Will it not get a bit cold?
Like tea tree.
You know when you get a bit toothpaste on your cheek
and you go outside and the wind hits in you?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So there you go.
Well, well, well.
Learn some things from every day.
Anyway, those four legends
are coming to Bournemouth on the 20th of November.
So we'll see you then.
Cock rings on.
Yeah, get your cock rings on, lasses.
Do you want to hear something disgusting?
Always.
Okay.
Do you want to sing the shit song?
Yes Let's talk about shit baby
Let's talk about poo and wee
Let's talk about all the good shits
And the bad shits that have been
Let's talk about shit
Let's talk about shit
Let's talk about shit
Shagged, married and shit
No, don't ruin it
No, sorry
Dear Rosie and Chris
Who fancies a let's talk about shit story?
We do
We do
To set the scene
I am from Newcastle
But was living in London at the time
I was working at a make-up store on Oxford Circus
And travelled to work via the tube.
It was 6.55am
and I was heading
into work
to do the stock take
in brackets.
Grim.
Got ya.
Stock takes.
I remember.
Especially makeup as well.
There's loads of tiny little boxes.
I remember doing stock takes
in a lot of my jobs
and actually
not doing them properly
and thinking
what's the point?
But they took them
very seriously.
Everyone listening to this now knows that you would have made
a dog's arse of a stock take.
We all know you.
But I was in Clark's the other day getting some shoes for Robin.
And the girl went back, like, three or four times.
And she kept coming back.
And she was like, oh, I can't find them.
These are supposed to have Velcro, but they've got laces and blah, blah, blah.
And she was basically just describing the back stock room to us.
And I wanted to cry for her. Because i remember when i worked in all sports the fucking
oh when the shoes were in the wrong place oh my god stock rooms in general shout out to anyone in
shoe places and shoe shops oh just crazy back there carnage yeah yeah when i worked at the
gadget shop the stock room, miles away. Really?
Miles away, Chris.
It's because the metro centre is a little warren out the back.
It was Eldon Square, actually.
All right, okay.
Wash your mouth out.
Love them both,
the metro centre as well.
I did work at the metro centre,
but very briefly.
It was miles away.
Anytime I had to go,
I was like,
I'm devastated.
Well, he was going
in the gadget shop though
and going,
you got one of these
out the back.
You got a different one
out the back.
Yeah, true, true, true.
Right, okay.
So heading to work to do the stock take.
Upon exit in the tube station,
I saw the worst sight I've ever seen
and something I will never, ever unsee.
Okay.
I Googled this, right, which is horrific
because our Google history must be v god yeah i dread to think like
we'll probably get arrested one day honestly but i googled it because i was like is this like an
urban myth is because sometimes people are weird and send us stuff that's like being on the telly
or something right and then we read it out and someone some people are like that's you know
we're not across all the media so sometimes when i get sent something like this i'm like i'm gonna check that that's yeah but this is good rosie good journalism thank you well done
just came up with a little pound a lot of porn sites great so anyway there in the middle of
oxford street in broad daylight was a man standing next to a bin with his pants and boxers around his
ankles arse cheeks spread and an empty empty, in brackets, not for long,
little Fanta bottle wedged up his hole.
Shut the fuck up.
Now, you may judge,
but when I say something as horrific as this,
my first reaction is to, unfortunately,
is to freeze and just let my eyes take it all in.
Wow.
So she's like froze on the spot, right?
Why did the man have the neck of a fanta bottle
up his arse i hear you ask no well after my eyes adjusted and i came to terms with what i was
saying it all got worse no i'm not no i can't i'm going in my head i out of the man's arse
into the fanta bottle came yellowy. No. Diarrhea.
This filled the two litre bottle up a good half way.
Oh my God.
Oh God, it's a two litre bottle.
Two litre bottle?
Before she'd put two little Fanta bottle,
not litre.
Oh.
Right.
Where's this? Oxford Circus?
Oxford Street, apparently.
Pick it back, Liam!
Okay, so...
Busiest street in London.
This filled up the two-litre bottle a good halfway.
He then proceeded to remove the newly-worn bottle from the grip of his angry arsehole
and put it in the public bin next to him, pulled his pants up and walked away.
I was new at my job, I didn't feel comfortable sharing this story
with my colleagues.
So I had to go about
my ten hour shift
like nothing had happened.
Hey, hey, hey,
I was just,
I was just,
it was bug,
fan of bottle,
sorry,
what's your name again?
Someone from the back,
someone from the back
going,
oh,
it's fan of Fred
out already,
is he?
Fan of Fred.
I haven't seen him
for a while.
Curveball here for you.
Yes.
I do believe
that he may have just
actually douched his arse
out with Fanta.
He may have squeezed
a load of Fanta
into his bum
and then squirted it back
into that Fanta bottle
in the middle of Oxford Street.
And I'll tell you
why I think this.
Why?
Because if you put
a vessel
like a Fanta bottle,
flush to an outlet, such as an arsehole,
and turn it on full,
the air inside is not allowing any diarrhea or anything else to go inside it.
It's going to push it out.
Right.
So the bottle will need to be squeezed.
To let it come out. To be be squeezed so there's no air in
so then put it flush i can't believe i'm literally scientifically just describing this yeah squeeze
so there's no air in it then flush up to the outlet outlet let's say and in though you put it
in yeah but flush to the tip yeah flush to the source yeah and then the stuff coming in replaces Ie, ond yn llwyr i'r... Yn llwyr i'r sws. Ie. Ac yna mae'r pethau sy'n dod i mewn yn cymryd yr a yw yna.
Does hynny o ddweud?
Ie.
Felly, efallai ei fod wedi...
Os nad oedd hi'n gweld hynny yn y cychwyn, efallai ei fod wedi...
...gwneud y cyfnod.
Neu, mae'n cael ei ddysgu.
Neu, mae wedi gwneud hynny cyn hynny.
Mae wedi gwneud hynny cyn hynny.
Pwy byddai'n ei ddysgu yn y cyfnod y stryd?
Fe wnais...
Fe wnais...
Dwi'n golygu, byddwn i byth yn rhoi ffant o bwtlau ar fy ngwch a mynd i wneud hynny. Yn amlwg, ond os oeddwn i wedi cael fy ngwch yn y cyfnod o Lywodraeth fel hynny, In the middle of the street. I would, I would, I mean, I would never stick a Fanta bottle up my arse and go and do that,
obviously.
But if I was caught short
in the middle of London like that,
Oxford Street,
I would just shit my pants.
Yeah.
I would just have to shit myself.
I'd go and stand on my back against a wall
and I would just shit myself.
Yeah.
And I'd be like,
right,
now what?
Now what?
Okay,
I kind of get what,
right,
okay.
He's done that before.
He squeezed that,
because that,
it would have went everywhere if he hadn't squeezed that bottle. So there's your two options. He's done that before he squeezed that because that it would have went everywhere
if he hadn't squeezed
that bottle
so there's your two options
he's done it before
and he squeezed it
or he's actually just
squeezed a load of
Fanta up his arse
and then shot it back out
and put the thing in the bin
and his kick is doing it
in public
probably
there are some
fucking maniacs
out there
that is
and London
I bet you no one stopped.
No, I know.
I bet you she was the only person
watching that.
Yeah.
God, I love how everyone
just gets on with it.
He would have a crowd
bigger than one of our arena shows
if he did that in Newcastle.
Imagine.
There'd be people everywhere.
Fanta have lost a customer.
Never had one since just never had one since
the worst bit is
because it's like
sunny outside
I could bloody murder a Fanta now
I do love a Fanta
that hasn't put me off
in any way
alright okay
let's get to the shop
get with some Fanta
do you want to drink
in your mouth
or do you want to put it up your arse
erm
listen today I'll mouth it.
Ah, okay, okay.
Yeah.
Babadoo, babadoo, babadoo, bah.
Hi, Rosie and Chris.
I know I'm not exactly anonymous,
but I have a story for you which will make you chuckle.
Why are they not anonymous?
You'll find out.
Okay.
Ten years ago this week,
I was studying for my degree in Cambridge.
Ooh, just want to drop that in there, did you?
Yeah. When me and a fellow student were given a tour around the city
to prospective students, including the famous punting tours
and the do-it-yourself punts.
Do you know what these are?
It's the boats.
It's the boats, a bit like a gondola.
Yeah, a punt. It's called a punt.
Yeah, a punt for me.
A couple of American people in the group wanted to know in... Yeah, a punt. It's called a punt. Yeah, a punt for me. I'm rolling to Cambridge.
A couple of American people in the group wanted to know how they could do this as a job during
the summer break, as they didn't want to keep
flying to and from America.
When I asked the gentleman, I used this term
loosely, how we could
do punt chauffeuring during the
summer, he pulled down his clearly
fake Ray-Ban sunglasses, looked me
up and down, sniggered and said,
sorry mate, but well clearly you have to be good looking for this job.
Job even.
And he laughed to his co-worker.
Wow.
Yeah.
Mortified.
Yeah.
Carries on.
Mortified, we moved on with the tour.
However, within a few minutes, my fellow student I was with
was asking how I felt and I just laughed it off.
She was clearly angry at him and what had happened.
Explain to me
that she was in her final year of journalism
and could she write an article
on whether looks mattered
in employment in 2013.
Reading about the whole
Hollister, Abercrombie & Fitch and other industries
I agreed and she wrote a lovely piece
for the local newspaper and I was really pleased
with it. This, mind you, a lovely piece for the local newspaper and i was really pleased with it wow this mind you was a saturday and the local newspaper article was in that day's paper
i read it and thought no more of it however oh god monday morning comes around and my phone starts
going mad with messages from random people i've never met asking if they could talk to me about
my article in the paper i spoke to a couple of different local reporters over the phone
and thought that was it.
I then went across to Tesco where I walked in
and saw the newspaper stand and to my horror,
I made either the front page or the first couple of pages inside
with headlines including,
Man too ugly to punt.
I then looked online and saw one paper
and America even ran with the headline
Punta Munda.
Within days, I hoped it had died down,
but I even got asked to appear on TV shows about it,
including Katie Hopkins' TV show,
was asked if I would be a mystery guest
on Russell Howard's Good News,
and to top it off,
I was a £10,000 question on the right show on Channel 5 with the question, show was asked if i would be a mystery guest on russell howard's good news and to top it off i
was a ten thousand pound question on the right show on channel five with the question why was
a student in cambridge told he couldn't be a punch over a can't swim b too ugly c scared of water
even today if you type into google images who is too ugly in cam Cambridge my face comes up at the top I hope this has
tickled your funny bones
this is amazing
I had no idea
about this
and I still get people
mentioning it
mystery guest
Russell Owens
good news
but listen right
I googled it
I tried to key him out
and he had to guess
who they were
yeah
I googled it right
I love the idea
that he'd walk out
and Russell would be like
well you're clearly
not a model are you
I mean Russell
would never say that
but yeah
I googled it
right
and this was from
this is an
is it excerpt
excerpt
is that right
excerpt
like a passage
excerpt is probably
that's how it's written
I don't think anyone
pronounces the T
oh fair enough.
And the P, sorry.
That's done really well.
Well, this is from the Metro paper, right?
Right.
A student has been refused a summer job
punting tourists on a river
because he is apparently too ugly.
Ben Cronin applied for work
on Cambridge's famous boats to fund his studies,
but he was knocked back
after staff allegedly told him
he wasn't good-looking enough.
Now the 20-year-old faces a summer of bar work don't go in his boy put you off your drink stand outside and fire a
fanter up your arse instead oh my god that's amazing yeah you've really threw me with that
excerpt thing you do this all the time someone's going to come in and go well
I have to apologise as well
because I said coconut milk
doesn't go in teas
and everyone
oh yeah
oh my god
I got fucking inundated
with pictures of coconut milk
schooled
excerpt
excerpt it is
a short extract
from a film
broadcast or piece of music
or written
yeah
I mean I think everyone
says excerpt
well listen I can listen
hang on ready
ready
excerpt alright Well, listen, I can listen. Hang on. Ready? Ready?
Excerpt.
All right.
Okay.
You go around saying excerpt all day and say what happens.
That's how you pronounce it? Yes, but it's one of them dickhead things, though, isn't it?
Excerpt.
Excerpt.
It's one of them dickhead things, though, isn't it?
Where when you say it, people will be like, oh, God, why are you saying that?
Do you know what I mean?
Very similar to expert, if you put it a different way.
He just took away the C and moved the P.
She's gone.
Fucking words, mate.
Well, speaking of words, I wrote this down.
I can't believe it came up in such a way where I can just segue into it.
Wow.
But we were in the green room after our TV show recording the other night,
and I heard you saying to someone,
Is it Sean Bean or seen bean oh right okay and i went so and i leaned in i went sorry and you went because chris we
always say seen bean but is it seen bean or is it sean bean and i went well i'll say seen bean as a
joke because i'm taking the make out of the spelling that certain spelling of sean and sean bean's name where it's spelled the same as bean so it's sean bean but it looks
on paper to be seen being if you go with the rule of the but you were with dare i say it
the commissioner of the bbc going but is it is it seen bean or is his name sean? And I didn't know where to put myself. No, because I said to her,
Seen Bean,
and her face went weird, right?
And I thought,
that's a piss dick,
that Chris does,
and his name is not,
but I've been saying Seen Bean for years.
You need to stop that.
Or do you stop doing jokes?
Because you'll drop them
into normal conversation
with important people.
I thought that's how you pronounced it.
No, it's short
it's a joke
I've said that so much
especially when
Game of Thrones was on
I'll have said
how good scene beam
no one's ever
corrected it
I love it
I absolutely love it
and when he did that
the other one recently
when he was in prison
I'll have said
I'm sure I said Angela
have you seen the one
with scene beam have you seen the one with seen
seen been yeah maybe she hadn't seen the whole thing maybe she'd only seen an excerpt of it
oh well done new words oh pinterest thank you what pinterest just keep emailing us going you've
got a good eye i'm like thank you all right okay yeah i think that's that that's a generated they're
not yeah i know but it's nice to know
that somebody appreciates my,
what's it called? Interior design.
Right, okay.
Good optics.
Good optics.
Good optics.
Good optics.
They keep saying optics in succession
and I don't know what it means.
I think it's something to do with spreadsheets.
Okay.
Anyone who hasn't seen Success
and we haven't just sold it to you.
You know, there'll be people out there now going,
oh, I'm not watching that.
It's just about spreadsheets, apparently.
This makes sense.
Right.
Good optics used in the business world
when activities might be good for publicity.
Right.
There you go.
So it looks good is what they're saying.
Yeah.
Just say it looks good, you fucking assholes.
It's like saved, saved like cat from tree.
It's got good optics.
Right.
Is that the best one you've come up with?
Listen, I'll be moving to America next week
because I'll fit right in.
Thank you so much for listening to this week's episode of Shag the Married Annoyed, which is part of the
Acast Creator Network.
It is indeed. Thank you very, very much.
And as always, if you want to get in touch, shagmarriedannoyed
at gmail.com and go and
scan and get on the NTA's website
and give her a little vote.
Oh, I'm just not that bothered
if we win or not.
I'm not that bothered about winning, right?
But for us,
for us,
for Christmas Ramsey,
for Shag Mountain and Oid,
if we end up on the shortlist,
good optics.
Really good optics.
Well done.
Mate, I was good to win.
Are you kidding me?
Good optics.
I don't think we'll win.
There's some amazing shows
that are long running.
It's a hard category.
Yeah, but you know,
it'd be nice to get shortlisted
and it's all in your hands.
No pressure.
You know, think of the optics.
You know?
Thank you.
So there you go.
Sign out, Chris.
Bye.
Bye.
