Hello, you're listening to Shagmire Denied with me, Rosé, and him, Christopher.
Oh. Hi. Oh.
Hi.
Hello.
How are you?
I'm much better than last week.
Are you now?
Yeah, I'm so sorry.
I feel like an absolute just... Unprofessional?
Useless.
Massively unprofessional.
Pain in the arse?
Just, you know, hormonal mess from week to week.
But today...
Burden.
That's horrible.
Sorry, I was just giving you words just so you could pick the one you want.
No, I feel a lot better.
But you know what it is?
I think I also feel a lot better
because me and you did our warm-up gig
for the tour last night.
Yes.
And it went all right.
It was really good.
And I've been shitting me pants.
Yeah, I've been...
It's been affecting my life.
What are kids saying these days?
Low-key?
I've been low-key cacking the old knickers like...
Well, yeah, because I don't know about you,
but I felt like we went to do it last night
and before we went on, I was like,
was it all just a fluke?
So every single stand-up tour you do,
like as a stand-up.
But I haven't done...
But you have, you've done,
it's a comedy tour,
so you've done one comedy tour,
which was the first Chagrinoy,
and that did the warm-up last night
for the second one.
And before every one,
we've all seen the Lewis Capaldi documentary.
It's the difficult second album,
but that never gets,
the third album's never easier,
the fourth album's never,
every single stand-up.
So when you do stand-up, right?
Sorry.
What?
I had a dream I was hugging Lewis Capaldi the other night.
What a fucking dream.
Giving him a hug and I was like,
are you all right?
And he was really annoyed that I was asking him
if he was all right.
In your dream, you were mothering Lewis Capaldi was asking him if he was alright in your dream
you were mothering
Lewis Capaldi
and asking him
if he was okay
unbelievable
so when you do
your first stand up
sort of
when you do your first
Edinburgh Fringe
festival
as a stand up comic
your first hour
your first show
you do at the Fringe
is basically just a collection
of your best shit
that you've been doing
on the circuit
for your career
so your first one's
a piece of piss
and then your second one you've got to go like right i've got to take a year's worth of new
gear up here now and then you have to do that every single year until you're two and it's the
same again it's fucking horrible and you always think not even just every tour every gig you go
is this the gig where i'm gonna get found out is this the gig where they're gonna go
hey hold on hold on everyone's had this wrong hey shit it's always the gig do they're going to go, hey, hold on, hold on, everyone's had this wrong. Hey, shit!
It's always the gig.
Do you know what I think as well, though?
Not to take anything away from that,
because absolutely, and I think stand-up is such a hard job
and you do a great job, but...
Here comes an insult.
No, it's not. It's not an insult at all.
And I just feel like we are...
I hope you all realise that we are genuinely a married couple
who get up with the kids, do the schlog and schlep
and have this life of the kids and we're married, right?
A lot of things being mispronounced there, but carry on.
Schlep and schlog.
Potato, potato.
Schlog's not a word, but okay.
Tomato, tomato.
It's not, is it?
The schlog.
What is it?
The schlep.
Schlog.
Oh, the schlog.
Like hard schlog.
Fuck me.
I'm tired.
But I was just like, stop it. I know we do this, but this is in'm tired but I was just like
stop it
I know we do this
but this is in my house
I was like
are we still funny
on stage as a couple
and we were
and it worked really well
I was dead proud of it
but honestly
beforehand I was like
fuck me
we all know about
how much I worry on here
I had to go and do
a random stand up gig
because I had a dream
I couldn't do stand up
it was pathetic man
absolutely pathetic
way to go on
but it was really good
and the tickets for the tour,
there's still some available
for some venues around the country.
Go on shagwire.com.
There's not many.
We've been having a sly look.
Yeah, we have been having a sly look.
I check the seating maps quite regularly.
But yeah, it's going to be great.
But it was really good fun
and I had a lovely time
and I'm feeling good.
But you forget, man,
like the highs and lows of a gig.
You come off fucking wired.
I've still got a headache today.
We didn't get the Kipdall half twelve
that's late for us
I was off me
me
when was the last time
you went to bed at half twelve
in the words of Sandra
it's hanging on me today
it's hanging on me
I am
my eyes feel
like closed
I feel
I've had a variprofen
before I started
I can't text
I've only just brushed my teeth
oh god

I know
the magic is over
but it went well
so anyway

Ooh.
240.
Good number.
Yep.
Great.
They're all good numbers.
And without further ado,
why is it a good number?
Just, I don't know.
Just the certain numbers I like in 240.
240.
240.
Okay.
Yeah.
Maybe, I don't know,
there's some distant memory
where I've been paid in cash
£240 for a gig
and I've thought that's nice.
I think that's probably what it is.
What a nice work that is. Happy days. That's a New Year's've thought that's nice. I think that's probably what it is. What a nice work
that is.
Happy days.
That's a New Year's Eve.
That's double bubble.
Yeah, you've done
good there.
Dinner included?
Always.
Oh, heavens above.
But little did the
people pay
and you know
you'd have done
it just for the dinner.
Oh, yeah.
Tell you about
when I did a
Christmas Day gig,
haven't I?
I wrote about it in the
book i'm sure right did a gig on christmas day fuck me i was single and just sick of my life

thank you for sticking with it
for 240 god damn episodes
of absolute fucking drivel
and you know what
Rosie been having a go at me recently
right
been
I don't believe that for a second
having a go at me
saying that I'm
saying that I'm
you know
trying to like
I'm not starving myself
but you know
I'm trying to watch what I'm doing
but sometimes I take it too far
and I don't eat enough on a day
alright okay
well listen
all I'm saying is
I've took a leaf
I've been on Instagram
I've been looking at you know your fitness guys you know your fitness guys and gals and everyone else on
instagram there your influencers you know everyone's always got a diet they've got a fad
they've got stuff going on i've come up my sponsor this week's sponsor is my brand new diet
great i've come up with great to help everyone out there achieve their goals achieve their gains
right and and you know just live a healthy, fulfilled Instagram life.
Right.
Is this a sponsor?
Yeah.
This week's lucrative sponsor is my new diet,
the Curry in Six Pints diet.
Well, that's right.
Okay.
It's the Curry in Six Pints. That's your old diet.
No, no, no, no, no.
Listen, it's a state of mind.
It's not even a diet.
It's a state of mind.
It's the Curry in Six Pints diet.
So every single day I wake up, right,
and that night I plan to have a curry in six pints.
I would love that.
Can we do that tonight?
Listen, every single night I plan to have a curry in six pints, right?
I spend the whole day looking forward to my curry in six pints, right?
Then every night I decide against having a curry in six pints.
Well, yeah, because it wouldn't be good to have it every night.
Making a healthy choice.
Well done.
For my future
oh good
every night
bar a couple of months
I say
I'm not having that curry
and that six pints
yeah good
and I make a healthy
clever
proactive choice
for my health
I'm doing so well
that is honestly
last night
you should write a book about that
ask me if I had a curry
and six pints last night
did you have a curry
and six pints
no I didn't
night before ask us
if I had a curry
did you have a curry
and six pints
no because I'm doing well you had one not long ago don't worry about that six pints last night. Did you have a curry and six pints? No, I didn't. The night before, ask us if I had a curry and six pints. Did you have a curry and six pints? No.
No.
Because I'm doing well.
You had one not long ago.
Don't worry about that.
So probably about three weeks ago
you definitely had a curry
and six pints.
Yeah, yeah.
And then you know what I did?
Next day, back on it.
Do you know what?
There's method in madness
because it's similar to me
because I would tell you
that the other week
I ate six packs of crisps, right?
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Not the other week,
the other day. In a day, but it was a couple of weeks ago other week I ate six packets of crisps right no no no no not the other week the other day
in a day
but it was a couple of weeks ago
I could eat six packets of crisps
every day
yeah of course
but I don't
but I make that choice
there we are
to not
so listen
look at me
and my healthy lifestyle
yeah how many packets of crisps
did you have the other day
none
fucking
thank you
ask me if I'm having
a curry and six pints a night
are you having a curry and six pints a night. Are you having a curry and six pints?
Possibly.
I genuinely could eat a curry tonight.
A proper curry.
I wonder how many people now listen to this are like,
I'm going to get a curry tonight because you've mentioned curry.
Like me, I've said in the past,
if I literally, all I have to do is what,
Robin or Rafe have to be watching a cartoon
where someone's eating a pizza on the cartoon.
If I say that pizza, that's it.
Yeah.
That's it.
I'm like that with pasta.
Like Instagram at the minute.
Watching reels and that
of people just making pasta.
But then they add cheese
and that and I'm like...
I'll tell you what fucks me off, right?
First of all, no cheese is amazing.
It's when people go,
oh, this is a quick recipe
to make this low-fat,
low-carb, high-protein chicken wrap.
And they show you them
and there's a platter of them.
There's like 40 of them on a platter. Right. Loads of fucking sauce on it. And I go, oh yeah, I'll have wrap. And they show you them. And there's a platter of them. There's like 40 of them on a platter.
Right.
Loads of fucking sauce on it.
And I go, oh yeah, I'll have that.
And then it shows you how to make it.
At the end of the video,
you find out that you're only supposed to have one.
Well, who's the platter?
Why have you made a full platter?
You reeled me into this video
thinking low carb, low fat and high protein
was me being able to scram that entire platter.
Is that seriously how your brain thinks?
You fucking show them all at the beginning. They're like, look at all this.
You can have all this. It's guilt free.
You go, oh great, I'll have that. Oh, one of them
fucking, she couldn't tell us that.
It's bullshit. I haven't won. I want more.
You do like a lot of grub, but we'll delve into
your current diet in the beefs.
Okay, but listen. If you're listening,
plan that curry in six pints every single night.
Six pints? Don't have it.
Five nights a week. You've done really bloody well. Hey pints? Don't have it. Five nights a week.
You've done really bloody well.
Yeah, well done.
Congratulations. Hey, case up on the back.
Here's a jingle.
We had a fight about the jingle, jingle.
We couldn't settle on a jingle, jingle.
So this is the jingle, jingle.
We hope you like the jingle, jingle.
Babadoo, babadoo, babadoo, bap.
Jingle!
Hello and welcome back to this week's episode.
240 episodes in.
Bloody Nora.
I don't know if that's including the out-of-office replies, you know.
It might actually be more than 240.
There might be a few out-of-office replies in there that didn't get numbered.
I don't know.
Is that when we have weeks off?
I don't remember our last week off.
Listen, ask someone who knows how it works, because I don't know how it works. I know you don't know how it works. Is that when we have weeks off? I don't remember our last week off. Listen, ask someone who knows how it works
because I don't know how it works.
I know you've got no idea.
I just press record, I carry on.
Genuinely, just as I was saving the file there,
I'm thinking, is it episode 240?
It might not be.
But I've said it now.
We're here anyway.
So there we go.
But is that all right?
Bloody autumn's kicked in, hasn't it?
Kicked in massively.
Kicked in.
Kicked the fucking front doors right in.
I've got a jumper on.
I know.
You're finally starting to feel the cold.
Yeah. We've got two quilts on our bed now. Should I've got a jumper on. I know. You're finally starting to feel the cold. Yeah.
We've got two quilts
on my bed now.
Should I just buy
a thicker quilt?
Buying quilts in bed
really, really
frustrates me.
I'm really not good
at buying bedding.
No.
We've got so much bedding
that doesn't match
and it just drives us a bit.
So we've got,
we must have three or four
duvet covers
and only one of them fits.
I think so.
And when that one's dirty,
we're just in a mist shape and fucking, it's like a giant pillow well thank god thank god for dryers because if we didn't have a dryer like we'd be going to bed with no sheets on you wouldn't
again we've been over this before you wouldn't you wouldn't care you'd happily sleep in a crack
den you're not bothered no clean crack den. It's clean.
Do you know what I mean?
Not objecting to the term crack den.
No, just clean.
I like a double duvet.
I do like a double duvet.
Yeah, it's nice.
It's a bit heavier.
It's good for your anxiety.
Yeah, lovely. A bit like a weighted blanket.
Slept like a bloody baby last night.
Yeah, pushing you down.
It's nice, actually.
Have I ever told you
when I moved in with Carl Hutchinson
back in the day in Manchester and I found found out his sleeping system so he had i don't know if he still does this i doubt
because i imagine his wife sophie has quite rightly beaten this out of him which it should
have been done years ago so he had a multiple duvet system right tell me so i remember when
he moved in it was like but i brought his duvet and i was like all right that's a duvet he's like bringing it from the car whatever and then
it's like another bag duvet bag duvet another dude like six yeah i'm not no word of a lie he
must have had six or seven duvets on his bed right so imagine at the same time yeah yeah yeah they're
all on there they're all the same time uh they were all different colors different thicknesses
right it was it was horrible horrible why is he doing that no imagine princess in the fucking pain i used to call him that i used to say right first time i saw it i was like i went in his room and
sat down i was chatting i was like what's going on here and it was just honestly six or seven
duvets like a duvet lasagna okay okay so hot night yeah one duvet on top of you sleep on top of the
others bit colder one more in right cold one
more in and basically that that's that's kind of how we did it yeah so weird and that's weird but
it's a very that is a very working class thing yeah yeah because i remember as a kid when it
got colder we've talked about this before and i've got i found one the other day the sheepskin thing
yeah yeah yeah as soon as it got a bit colder I'd go to bed and I'd be like,
ah, the sheepskin.
And then there was a few years
where we had like a duvet on the bottom
and then like two duvets on top
and then a blank, like, yeah.
That's the thing though.
I was like, mum, put the heating on.
A duvet?
Just stop trying to smother us
with these duvets
and put the heating on your jeep.
Fuck us.
That was the only thing with Carl's system though
because a duvet underneath you
insulates you from the bottom as well.
It does warm you up.
Yeah, yeah.
So I think,
if I remember rightly,
you would sleep
bang in the middle of all of them
and if it was a really cold night,
you'd be bang in the middle
so you had the heat from the bottom
and the heat from the top.
Why don't we nick the air,
I've got a mattress topper
from the IKEA bed
in the guest room.
Well, I tell you what right now.
The guest room, darling.
Oh, darling.
Check your privilege. The guest room slash Lego room. There's literally Lego all over the floor. The guest room. Well, I'll tell you what right now. The guest room, darling. Fucking check your privilege.
The guest room slash Lego room.
There's literally Lego all over the floor.
The guest room that if a guest ever turns up,
I'll have to go with a fucking,
literally a sweeping brush from outside
and sweep Lego and carpet fibres
into the corner of the room
because it's disgusting in there.
And it meant that we've got a spare bedroom.
What, you're joking, aren't you?
There's a tax on that, man.
Oh, you had a spare bedroom growing up, didn't you?
Oh, I had it, yeah.
It was a spare, oh, we didn't.
I knew it would come back to this.
Chocolate block.
I knew it would come back to you
and your fucking bucket family
from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
Just because there was more of it.
All the way in one bed were nine duvets.
Granda, Granda, get a chocolate bar.
Have we got the golden ticket, Granda?
Have we got the chocolate factory?
Listen, right?
Don't go to my dad, my dad will kick off.
Right.
My dad literally is like,
stop telling people who I know.
You've had a good childhood, you did.
You went on holiday.
Stop telling people never went on holiday.
We didn't for years.
Listen, couple of things, right?
First of all, yes, love to, love to do this.
Second of all,
miniature little beef I've got with you, actually.
Speaking of sheepskin.
Great.
Speaking of sheepskin.
Sheepskin. I'm glad we're going to get the mattress topper. Sh with you, actually. Speaking of sheepskin. Great. Speaking of sheepskin. Sheepskin?
I'm glad we're going to get the mattress topper.
Ships in the night.
Stop changing the subject.
Yes.
I'm glad we're going to get this mattress topper because you did an incredible thing the other day.
You found the sheepskin in the cupboard and brought it out.
It's in like a see-through.
Yeah, yeah.
It's in a see-through carrier bag.
Yeah.
And you brought it out and you went, there's sheepskin there for the bed.
We'll put it on the bed.
And I went, no, Rosie.
I went, we can't put it on there.
That was for Robin's bed in the old house. That that fits a single bed no one's got the single bed
anymore and you went oh i'll just put it on my side then as i shall i will christopher let's not
beat around the bush we that last night was the first night we've spent in bed together by the
way oh little before you last night was the first night
we spent in the same bed
full night together,
right?
Because we love each other still,
you know,
sex life is nice,
but,
but kids are fucking
killing me, right?
And they just won't sleep
on their own
and you know what?
Whatever,
it's fine.
We're just sleeping.
I don't care.
I don't,
I'm not,
I'm one of them
that's just like,
I'll see you enough.
It's fine.
I'll see you enough.
Yeah,
and we have a little time in bed and then we go, you go to robin's bed and rave comes in with me anyway um last night
we slept together tennis snoring again what's that three o'clock in the morning oh it's coming back
oh yes i don't miss i don't miss it wow i sleep better without you in the bed wow I do me and Rafe are a better team

Babadoo, babadoo, babadoo, bah.
So something happened which hasn't ever happened before.
I don't think.
This is the first time this has happened.
It involves Robin, our eldest.
He drew a picture the other day.
Are we going to talk about the picture? Come on, then. So he drew a picture the other day. Are we going to talk about the picture?
Come on, then.
So he drew a picture.
He was drawing his family, right?
But he wanted to draw his poos,
because they're just...
When's he going to grow out of the poo thing?
I've never grown out of being obsessed with poo.
Fair enough.
We've got a section on this podcast called Let's Talk About Shit.
I know, but it's just...
How dare you?
All right, well, fair enough.
Well, he drew all his shit, right?
Like the emoji,
the poo emoji.
So I'm there as blonde.
He's there as blonde.
Rafe's there.
Rafe's really small
and he's also got a shit
and he's nappy.
Yeah.
So he's got like smell
coming from him.
The inception going on there.
You're there, right?
You are a poo
and you are really angry.
Yeah.
And it says...
So it's...
Well, right.
So I'll go from the... Me first. I'm there, smiling. so it's, well, right, so I'll go from the,
me first,
I'm there,
smiling,
but it's got in brackets, listening to music,
again.
Because you've always got headphones on,
ignoring your family.
Yeah,
I'm not ignoring my family.
You are.
I'm just making dinner,
I don't want it in there,
watching the telly.
Yeah,
but you need,

I can crack on,
and just listen,

It's ridiculous.
Right. Rafe's there, he's put, Rafe's had a poo, and he's put me, the best, right, like fucking glazed over. It's just what I do. It's ridiculous. Right.
And Rafe's there,

He's got sunglasses on.
And then it says you,
brain lava.
Brain lava.
Apparently.
And in brackets,

Your son.
How do you, of course I'm always angry with How does that make you feel? Your son. Of course I'm always angry.
My entire family are shits.

A bit annoying.
But I said to him as well,

He was like,

And I was like,
oh, well, I try.
And he was like,

His exact words were,
I didn't draw it for that.
I didn't draw it for like a chat.
Oh God.
I didn't draw it for that. He hates Oh God. I didn't draw it for that.
He hates a chat.
I was like,
alright,
I was just going to say,
look,
I'm really sorry,
I'll try not to be angry,
but you know,
try not being a little
fucking tosser all the time.
Just thought it was quite funny.
You're not angry all,
I mean you are angry quite a lot,
but you're not angry all the time.
I'm not angry all the time.
You're a very good dad.
I just,
do you know what it is?
I'm really fucking loud
and I raise my voice.
Yeah.
Do you know what it is?
And it's not like
an angry raise my voice,
it's just like,
she just doesn't fucking listen man
no no they don't
they don't Chris
but the sooner that you realise
that they don't listen
the better you're gonna be
you get yourself so wound up
and I'm literally like
I ask them
if they want something
and if they don't reply
I don't ask them again
right so this does
fuck me off
because on a morning
I literally go
I go Robin John's breakfast
Robin Robin John Johnson breakfast Robin
Robin Johnson
breakfast
Robin
Robin
Robin
ages
and then
and you go
just don't say anything
just sit down
don't give him anything
until he asks for something
because he's ignoring you
which is fair enough
the fucking second
my arse touches that sofa
the second
my arse touches that sofa
he goes
I'm on some serious,
I'm like,
fuck,
I've just,
I've just,
so I try and get it out of the way
while I'm standing up
because there's nothing worse
than sitting down and relaxing
and immediately having to get back up.
Sometimes in this house,
I don't sit down.
I just stand.
I just stand in the corner
like a fucking waiter.
I think we think,
I think nowadays,
you know,
we think of our children
as too young,
whereas I remember being nearly eight
and I'm honestly sure i used to go
downstairs by myself in the morning absolutely no chance i'm allowed to make his own see i'd
rather do because my mom used to put making him make sorry to interrupt but him making his own
cereal the amount of fucking cleaning up i would have to do after that is probably 10 times more
work than just making my ball i know he made hot chocolate on the coffee machine the other day it
was unbelievable but but but you, he's got to learn.
My mum used to cover our cereal on a night time
with cling film on the top
and we would come downstairs
and we'd get the milk out
and put the milk on
and we would do it ourselves.
I remember being downstairs
with Kevin,
my brother,
on my own.
Yeah.
I do.
So when can we do that?
I will never be able to do that
because I'll be lying upstairs
going,
I know he's ate cereal
almost every day
for seven and a half years now but is today the day he chokes on his cereal and
i'm upstairs sleeping i know i know i know i can't do it i can't do it yeah same like honestly
if we had different kind of kids maybe our kids just aren't that and i don't think i'm that late
but i'm on his fucking wedding day i will be standing near his table going, is he going to choke on that steak?
I hope you're not,
but you probably will be.
Hey, honestly.
Yeah.
Okay then, fair enough.
Maybe you have a couple more, yeah?
I think 10.
Well, we've all talked about,
I've talked many times about the time I went downstairs.
The first time I ever went downstairs to make myself bread and butter for my breakfast
and I accidentally put lard on the bread and basically had
what was a lard sandwich. You do that now you've got no idea what anything is
Oh god it's awful. I still remember it now. Oh god. Claggy. Very claggy. Oh god. Babadoo babadoo babadoo baa
Rosie are you excited? For what? Coming up right now. You need to warn us about these things.
Well I'm gonna tell you right now. Coming up right now it is I'm, you need to warn us about these things. Well, I'm going to tell you right now. Coming up right now, it is,
I'm sure you've seen it,
I'm sure everyone's seen it,
International Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Week
is coming up.
Oh, it's not, is it?
Yeah.
Are you excited?
No, I couldn't give a shit.
Listen,
I hate how much
I have to be involved
in your hobby.
I love that you've got a hobby.
It's really good.
You seem a lot happier
since you've been going.
I'm genuinely chuffed about that.
It's really icky
when you say you have to
put time aside
to cut your nails
before you go,
but that's fine.
That aside, right?
Whatever.
Ugh, vile.
Why have I got to be involved in it?
I don't tell you
about anything I do.
So why,
you brought it up on here.
Well, I'm just explaining it.
Why?
Nobody gives a shit.
Because it's just,
well, no, some people do.
You know, I get some comments
on that now and then.
I'm just letting you know.
And I'm mainly,
I've waited until now
so that we've got an audience.
Much like when, you know, when you were younger, if you waited until now so that we've got an audience. Much like when,
you know,
when you were younger,
if you wanted your friend
to sleep at your house,
you would ask your mom
in front of your friend.
Oh, don't.
What is it?
What is it?
Where do you want to go?
No?
When?
How many days?
What is it?
So it's a week.
It's international.
I don't have to leave
because obviously the gym
I go to, SBG,
South Shields,
is fantastic
and they're hosting
a lot of events and stuff
and people are coming over, right?
So it's the week of the 6th of November. Right. Right. Okay. the gym I go to, SBG, South Shields, is fantastic and they're hosting a lot of events and stuff and people are coming over, right? So,
it's the week of the 6th of November.
Right.
Right?
Okay.
The week before the tour starts.
Yeah,
but I don't have much on
and the tour should be all sorted then.
It should be basically relaxing
and doing my own thing
and I'll take it easy
so I don't get injured or anything,
right?
So,
seminars and instructors
from all around the world,
Monday,
7 till 10.
Why are you asking on here?
Because I'm just letting you know,
Monday,
7 till 10.
Yeah?
At night?
Yes.
Can I get a yes?
No, you can't.
I don't have any diary.
Check your diary.
Come on.

it's my sister's birthday
right maybe I'll not do the Friday then
Saturday
midday till about 9
and then drinks after
absolutely not
why
no
I'm not having it
no
that's funny
that's funny
because I just completely made up
International Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Week.
What I've read to you there are the exact hours
that you did GNS two weeks ago.
I knew it was.
You fell right into me trap.
There's no such thing as International Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Week.
Well, there might be, but all that was bollocks.
But those exact hours that I read there
were the exact fucking gigantic collection of days
that you were away from your shitty stupid
fucking singing group
okay and the worst one the worst one was it was the saturday you did the saturday
all day then you did the show and then you went we're all going to someone's house after for
drinks and i went really and you went well i want to see them all i was like you're fucking seeing
them all week that was me that was funny that was no i'm not finished that was when you coined
i've written it down that was when you coined
your new catchphrase
when I said
oh afterwards
Shamim you not like
go for it
or do you want to come home
and we'll get a curry
or something like that
your exact catchphrase
your brand new catchphrase
that you've coined now
that you say every time
you want to do something
Chris
we've got the rest
of our lives together
Chris
we've got the rest of our lives together.
So I'm doing this stuff that I want to do,
but you can't do anything you want to do.
You can do everything you want to do.
Don't even start with me.
Don't start.
Do not believe him because he has a lot going on in his life.
Do not believe him.
Guys, check her Instagrams.
How many times is she out?
You don't put anything on Instagram.
You twat.
But touche.
Well done.
Very good.
Do you know as well,
on the Saturday,
because we had a matinee
and an evening performance,
a lot of people went home.
Mainly friends did not go home.
Everyone who had kids stayed.
Everyone who didn't have kids went home.
Because we were like,
if we go home,
we're going to have to bear it.
And that is more tiring
than just sitting in the dressing room
doing nothing.
Piece of shit.
Oh, hey, listen.
If you want to go to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu,
it's not a thing.
I literally made it up.
So my thing is,
I don't care what you do
on the night time
because when I was going
to J&S,
I wasn't leaving the house
till like 20 to 7.
You would leave just before
bath time.
It was carnage.
They were screaming,
they were shouting,
they were naked,
rubbing their naked arses.
No, I would help with
bath time loads
and then I went.
No, no, no, no, no.
You got ready.
You got ready for 45 minutes
then you left.
No, I didn't.
You were essentially
checked out at about 6 o'clock. because I didn't. Alright, half an hour. Half six you were gone. Right, no, no, no, no. You got ready. You got ready for 45 minutes. Then you left. No, I didn't. You essentially checked out at about six o'clock.
Because I didn't.
All right, half an hour.
Half six, you are gone.
Right, okay.
But you, BJJ,
you're like this at quarter past five.
I've got to go.
Cut me nails.
Get sorted.
Put me eye mask on for the lads.
Oh, grim.

It's time for What's Your Beef?
What's your beef? What's your beef?
What's your beef? Beef, beef, beef, beef, beef, beef.
Just to let you know, I suggested that we shouldn't really have one this week
because you've just annihilated us there.
Yeah, but that's no reason, you know, just because you...
It's a fake little week. I had anxiety when you were saying all them dates.
Don't leave me.
Just a side note as well, by the way, you've got to cut your nails and have a wash before you go to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
because, you know, you're in close contact with other people.
It's not anyone who's listening doesn't understand.
It's basically wrestling, scrabbling, you know.
But it's really strange because we were there the other night and the guy who takes the
class who younger than me had to sit and tell everyone at the end who are grown fucking men
to wash and wash their clothes and cut their nails before they get here i'm like
i mean i'm dare i say it i'm one of the cleanest people i know like i i just don't think grown
ass men should be told that well you've obviously
not met many
disgusting grown ass men
if you'd have told me
when I was 23
that I would marry a man
who wrestles
I'd have said
you're fucking
not a chance
it's not wrestling
you just said it's wrestling
I use that as a layman's term
it's not
I mean it is
there's wrestling takedowns
anyway look
I just wouldn't have believed it wouldn't believe it football maybe i don't know cricket
something nice don't like team sports yeah you're alone in this world you're going you're coming to
this world alone and you go out alone as well wrestle alone listen uh do you want to go ladies
first have you got a beef or did you not i do because i've got a beef i've got loads my beef
at the minute is just you and your new eating disorder. Right.
It's not an eating disorder.
Well, okay.
I know that's such a triggering word and I'm sorry.
I don't mean it that much. But Chris, at the minute, you're just skipping food, which is making you really awful to
be with and miserable.
And I'm like, it's really good.
You look in great shape, but you cannot do anything.
No, right.
Okay.
You're welcome.
But you can't do anything
like a normal person
who can just kind of
be like right okay
what's the word
like a level thing
can't do anything by half
yes
you go so full in
so now
he's like literally
on these shakes
which are meal replacements
and I read the label
and I was like
okay that's great
I get it right
but they're like
450 calories each
because it's a meal
yeah but you could just make a meal that's like. I get it, right? But they're like 450 calories each. Because it's a meal. Yeah, but you could just make a meal
that's like really low carb
and really healthy for 450 calories.
Eat, for fuck's sake.
I do, but sometimes I'm in a hurry.
Like last night,
I had to come home and get ready for the gig
and go straight back.
There's days when you're not in a hurry
and it's Saturday afternoon,
you've got football going on
and you're like,
just going to have a shake.
And I'm like, oh my God,
it's so unattractive.
Just eat.
Eat something.
Full disclosure, I really like them.
They taste really sweet and I really like milkshakes.
And the fact that it's also a meal, I don't have to fanny on,
I really like it.
All right, well, okay then.
All cards on the table, I find it really unattractive
that I'm out, a man who just is skipping dinners.
So just, you are, the other day, we had such a bad day.
We argued all day
you were horrible
that was my fault
and then by six o'clock
you went
I think I'm just really hungry
and I was like
oh my god
you're gonna ruin my marriage
through not eating
sorry
I hold my hands up there
I hold my hands up there
just eat
have a
have an apple
the problem was
so sometimes I do
let stuff get in my head right
and I was
what happened was
you go too far
you go too far
you're extreme
what happened was
I'll tell you exactly what happened was I had my normal breakfast of champions you know if i'm just having a little
light breakfast i'll just have like a banana and uh or like me little yogurt thing with a bit of
oats in it just a chill little nice really good for you well done then we went to a cake place
because we're planning robin's birthday cake and we i bought i got excited yes and obviously i
haven't been having as much stuff like sweet stuff yeah
so i had this like oh my god it was like a bisque off and white chocolate crumble slab and i had
that and i was like like i don't know why but like you know like i don't know i don't know why i put
the pressure on myself but i was just like like someone trying to fit into a certain pair of
trousers i was like i've had that i need to not and i had a fuckload of sugar then i didn't need
anything else for the rest of the day
and I peaked
and I fucking dropped
and I was in a manky mood
and I bought you flowers
the next day
I apologised
I bought you flowers
it was that bad everyone
it was that bad
I think looking after yourself
especially when we're getting older
is such a good thing
and eating better
we are both eating better
we don't have as many takeaways
we're trying not to drink as much
bloody bloody blah
I turn down
six pints
and a curry every night.
Exactly.
But you're allowed to...
I feel like, Chris, you're one of these people
where you need to be told.
So I'm telling you.
I don't do anything in moderation.
You are allowed to eat cake.
You haven't got your wedding coming up.
Trying to get in them pants, right?
You're allowed to eat and have a day.
And then the next day, just go, right, okay,
I'll not do that today.
Absolutely right.
Stop turning it so extreme.
You're completely right. Because that's what you you do and it's really horrible to live with
honestly and you judge me so much when i ate them six bags of crisps you judged you you were
horrible i went and got the fucking i want every single one of them from the cupboard for you
yeah but you are really horrible because i had to get up i didn't want to get up no you are it's
nice quit sugar on that it's steel we'll be the end of it
but anyway
whatever
what's it be for me
it will
why did you
why did you break up
and stop doing that podcast
that was good
just fucking
stopped eating
horrible
what have I happened to be
acting this morning
I had two size stoves
scrambled eggs
and some beans and sausages
so stick that in your pocket
since I haven't talked to you
about it though
yeah fair enough
honestly
listen
I'm so sorry
I just wanted I'm not I'm not trying to joke about it though. Yeah, fair enough. Honestly. Listen. I'm so sorry. I just wanted,
I'm not trying to joke about it.
Because I,
you know,
there's people who listen to this
who might have struggled with eating disorder.
I'm not taking the piss.
I'm just trying to say to Chris,
on here,
so it goes into his brain,
don't be so extreme with the eating.
Because you have got the tendency to be like,
I'm not eating anything ever again.
It's six duvets. Do you know what I mean yeah it is what it is but you don't eat because you look
great and you're doing and you're healthy and you're exercising and all right you just chill
out thank you tell you what i'm gonna be in that's a real brazilian jiu-jitsu week i'm gonna be eating
so much good for you i'm glad i'm glad i'm gonna replace all those electrolytes and stuff listen
my beef with you is we watch documentaries
and you listen to true crime and stuff.
Yes, love them.
And now and then you will learn a new word or phrase
from something horrible in a documentary.
Right.
I know what it is, but I forgot.
Claim that I'm doing it to you.
Right.
So yesterday we were doing rehearsals.
I was trying to cuddle you a couple of times doing the rehearsals because you know there's a lot of standing around
a lot of hanging around in a theater and my wife's there and i love you i'm professional
i like a little cuddle now and then uh so your new one that you learned was a love bombing yeah
stop love bombing as you said um that was annoying yeah and then obviously the one before that you
learned was gaslighting so you claimed i was gaslighting forever yeah and then last night he said look stop love bombing
us wasn't when you and i'm like look stop learning new phrases and use them against us and then you
hit us back with why you're gaslighting us and i just feel like i feel like you need to stop just
just if anyone's in here shot just if anyone who doesn't really know where pat is like you know
staff at the venue just in here shot thinking oh really know her, Pat, you know, staff at the venue, just any a shot thinking
oh, I heard her accusing him of some really
fucking high level manipulative
things here.
Do you think we should have a word with someone about it?
Maybe just stop, maybe whisper them.
Maybe say the word, it's just me and you.
Stop cuddling us in front of everyone.
I hate it.
It's like, remember Clueless?
Did you ever watch Clueless?
Nope.
Well, there's a lovely bit
with Brittany Murphy
and Alicia Silverstone
where they're talking about
they watch a new thing
and they try to get
like a new sentence,
like a new word
into a sentence.
Right.
Yeah, sporadically.
And that's what you do.
It's what I try to do.
Just hear a good word
and I think I'm going to use that.
No, they're not good words.
They are awful phrases
used to describe
manipulative, horrible,
let's be honest, men
in documentaries
and true crime
that you listen to.
We're watching a lot of them
at the minute though.
It's really...
Oh God.
It's a bit intense.
Again, I can tell
we've always watched
something high level
and really intense
where we've got to
quickly flip over
and watch an old episode
of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire
as a little palate cleanser
before bed.
Yeah.
So it's a bit intense, isn't it?
Rolling with the homies.
What's that? Tough Clueless.
Oh, God.
It's time for Questions from the Public.

Please continue to send your wonderful
input that really, genuinely,
trying not to sound insincere here,
makes the podcast what it is. Oh god,
yeah. Thank you. Love it.
How are you Rosie and Chris? Nice.
My mum is an avid member of her local
book club. A club you would expect
to meet upstanding members of society
who all share a passion for reading and discussing
their thoughts and ideas about said
book over a hot cup of Earl Grey tea.
Sounds fucking awful, but carry on.
I can imagine that it's amazing if you like reading.
So, you know, don't knock it till you try it.
Okay, not going to try it.
Sounds awful. Carry on.
And howe, you used howe wrong, by the way.
Howe means, it doesn't mean that.
It's not a greeting.
It means come on.
Well, there might not be...
Look, just delete this email.
I'm joking. I'm email. I'm joking.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm in a silly mood.
Good.
She's been going for years and being brutally honest,
I haven't ever paid much attention
to the standard mum gossip
she hears from the club.
Okay.
In brackets.
For example,
Angela's daughter getting into uni,
blah, blah, blah.
It's hardly gossip,
but fair enough.
Well, until last week.
Okay.
Congratulations, Angela's daughter,
if you're listening, by the way.
Yeah, well done.
So apparently...
Listen, I never went to uni.
It's good.
So apparently one of these women at the boot club
suddenly turned around to my mum
and out of the blue asked her
if she approved of something she recently did.
The woman went on to tell her
that during a standard Tuesday morning
when she was working from home, she had a knock
at the door from a delivery driver.
She was specific about
who this driver worked for, but I don't want
to get you guys done for defamation.
Defamation even.
And in her words, he was surprisingly
quite good looking. Heavens above. I have no idea
how this escalated so quickly, but they
somehow hit it off whilst she was
signing for her package. And she invited him inside inside only to book him on her living room sofa never in the
world my poor mom was apparently utterly speechless and had absolutely no idea how to respond i didn't
think this happened in real life neither that and even worse couldn't look the woman's poor husband in the eye when you came to pick her up the book club the book club
oh no so scandalous who would have ever thought this kind of behavior went on outside of internet
porn eh my mom asked me how i would have responded to this woman asking me if i approved of what she
did and i can't decide if out of pure shock i'd say you get yours hun or what the
actual fuck love you need help i can imagine how chris would respond but what would rosie have had
said oh what would i have said um i'd have probably been like seriously did you wear a condom did you
not wear a condom was it good why the living room sofa of all the places and what i think like
right a couple of things I want to say here.
One,
didn't think this happened
in real life.
No.
Two,
don't know how that
would happen so quickly.
Three,
he's going to be late
for some deliveries here.
Yeah.
And I know they're on
a strict fucking time schedule
and they get like penalised
and stuff.
So hope it was worth it fella.
His penis was getting
idolised as well.
Great.
Thank you.
Didn't know where you were
going with that.
You pulled that back in the end. I did didn't I, yeah. Penis was getting idolised. Absolutely wonderful track you didn't know where you're going with that you pulled that back absolutely i was gonna say penis eyes but um i don't think this happened i think
they're reading a book in which this happened right but the person who wrote in her mom hasn't
been paying attention and this woman has told her this story as if it's happened to her to trick her and find out that she's actually not
paying attention to the book.
Do you think?
Yeah.
Or?
Like me going like,
oh, you know,
oh, you alright?
Yeah, you enjoying book club?
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, you know what happened to me the other day?
I opened me wardrobe
and there was like another world inside there
and I went in
and there was like a talking lion call.
I was landing that
and they go,
oh, I was there, yeah.
And I go,
ah, you haven't fucking been
paying attention to Lion Witch
in the wardrobe.
Yeah. Fair enough, fair enough enough it's like you with my with the bloody bjj club yeah yeah yeah maybe but maybe this is a this is a little bit out there but i think some
people who are unhappy in their marriage might make up scenarios and say things just to get
people's reaction because she might have wanted that woman to say i'm really glad you did that
because your husband's a prick
and you should leave him.
Wow.
I think some people need to be told
to leave their partners.
Okay.
Do you not agree?
I don't agree.
And again,
I can't believe I have to tell this again.
Stop going up to people in the street
and tell them that.
Oh no,
I've never had to.
Like I haven't personally
had to tell anyone that.
You know,
you too.
You should leave him.
Bye.
Rosie,
leave it.
Not again today.
Come on. Sorry, everyone. I've never done it, but. Bye. Rosie, leave it. Not again today. Come on.
Sorry, everyone. Just out of the way.
I've never done it, but I'm just saying, I think maybe
she might not be happy, and she's thinking up scenarios
in her head, and saying them out loud.
I don't know.
Might be the way she gets her kick.
It might have genuinely happened.
I don't know what to say about it, though.
Porn had to get the idea from somewhere.
Well, I'm sorry. I sign for a lot of packages,
and it's never come to my mind. You send I'm sorry. I sign for a lot of packages and I've never,
it's never come to my mind.
You send me to the door
to sign for a lot of them.
I have to sign for most of them.
Because I've just...
I've never fancied fucking any of them.
Don't put myself in that situation.
It's so easy to happen.
It's not easy to happen at all.
How would that happen?
How in a million years?
I've got no idea how that would happen.
Other than answering the door naked,
flashing them and going,
do you fancy it?
How would it happen? In my opinion, if you're going to go answering the door naked, flashing them and going, do you fancy it? How would it happen?
In my opinion,
if you're going to go to the door flashing
and asking every single guy,
you are going to get blacklisted
from some delivery places
before you end up getting a shag.
That's just,
that's where my money goes.
Throw some shit.
Throw enough shit, some sticks.
Yeah.
You'll get a shag,
but I tell you what,
DHL and every,
aren't going to touch you ever again
with a shitty stick.
I know, that's true.
Mind, isn't that funny how,
this is going a bit, not serious,
but isn't it funny how we talk about women flashing
as if it's okay, but men, it's absolutely not.
Well, it's because of that old,
it's because of that old,
the old sort of stereotype that blokes are always up for a shag
and women aren't always up for a shag.
I don't think women flash as much.
I don't know.
Yeah.
Who knows?
I don't think women flash as much.
I don't know. I sometimes always think about these don't think women flash as much. I don't know.
It's an odd,
it's,
I sometimes always think about these things.
Just think.
It's,
it is the old stereotype
that women hold all the cards in sex
and men are just like,
you know,
are like,
whenever I hear a bloke say,
oh,
she promised,
oh,
but I get,
like,
you know,
the old,
I haven't really heard it for years.
I think I've seen it on,
I've seen it on telly and stuff.
I have heard it a couple of times
where it's like, oh, you're'll come for you know you later on you're
coming for a curry tonight i come staying out for a few more pints oh no i'm on a promise tonight
just tell us i can chug other night oh what is your life i know oh god how sad well tell me how

or she just wants him in early
to get up with the beans
so she's literally like

because that's going to be
an extra hour and a half
and you'll have 3 more pints
come home
I'll book you
and you'll be up with the beans.
I'll be dazed.
But I would do.
You'll be out delivering by 10 o'clock.
Yeah.
You'll be booking again.
Exactly.
There you look.
Oh, stop.
Got a delivery for you to sign for, sweetheart.
Oh yeah, no problem.
What is it?
This penis.
Ew.
Bow.
Sorry.
Disgusting.
Sorry, I just accidentally played a clip of a movie I'm making there.
Sorry, I don't know how that came out.
Babadoo, babadoo, babadoo, bah.
Hi, Rosie and Chris.
Please keep me anonymous.
I have a Rosie's Mysteries, Mysteries, Mysteries.
Yes.
Bring it on.
Eh, well, I never knew that.
A few years ago, I was recently out of a long-term bad relationship.
Enjoying my newfound freedom,
I started casually seeing the guy who we will call Rick.
Ooh, nice. As far as the fake names go, I've never had a casually seeing the guy who we will call Rick. Ooh, nice.
As far as the fake names go, I've never had a Rick before.
Very good.
I like Rick.
Rick the Dick.
We were both newly single but feeling a bit lonely, so we agreed to hang out and keep things casual.
He was a handsome, long-haired, moustached hipster dude with lots of quirks and niche interests.
The type that are quite enticing when you first meet someone but soon grow icky when you lose attention i've met a few of them i've met a few of them when you think oh they're
quite cool and then you go out with them a few times and you go oh they're really fucking weird
um on our typical evenings would consist of a delicious meal which always included ingredients
i've never heard of sorry what a review. What's it starting up? What's this?
A fucking Weight Watchers advert?
What do you mean?
I think she's going around
Rick's and he's like,
I'm just making my curry.
This is the Garam and Masala.
Put some star of a niece in here.
Yeah, yeah.
You just go,
Steve's so a jar Rick.
You know,
I remember the Weight Watchers advert
from back in the day.
I think it might have been Slim Fast.
All you do is
shake in the morning,
shake at lunch
and then eat
in a delicious
evening meal.
That's literally,
it literally sounded
like she was
advertising slim fast.
Our evenings would
consist of delicious
You've got slim fast
on the brain, ye,
Mr. I don't eat anymore.
Do you know what it is?
I used to watch
the slim fast adverts
and look at their milkshakes
and think,
fucking looks amazing.
You love a milkshake.
I love milkshakes.
No, it's just saying
our typical evenings
would consist of
a delicious meal
which always included
ingredients I'd never heard of
I love that he's getting
slagged off
but he's fucking
cooking every night
and he's still getting
he's still
still getting the ache
and he's still getting
slagged off
yeah true
you cannot fucking win
with some people
I would be buzzing
if you cooked for me
yeah
anyway
interesting conversations
a few glasses of wine
and of course
a cheeky shag
woo woo
sounds like good
yeah sounds like
sounds alright
sounds decent
in the build up to said shag he Woo woo. Sounds like good. Yeah, sounds like... Sounds alright. Sounds decent.
In the build up to said shag,
he decided to show me some fragrance samples from a company he had recently discovered.
Each scent was named after a British animal
and was listed with a set of characteristics
rather than a description of the smell.
For example, the badger is a cheeky fragrance
that is strong in character and not afraid of the dark.
Oh God.
Sorry, what the fuck?
Sorry, are these aftershaves?
Yeah.
So they have the meal, they have the wine, and then he goes, look at this.
Smell these aftershaves.
Advent calendar of animal aftershaves I've got.
Yeah.
She said, so it's like the badger and some pretentious bollocks like that.
Sorry and all that.
I can't imagine Johnny Depp doing the advert for Badger.
Read again.
What is it?
Badger.
Cheeky fragrance.
That is strong in character and not afraid of the dark.
Just imagine the Sauvage advert.
He's just fucking playing his guitar.
He's playing his guitar in the desert and there's wolves.
Cheekiness.
Afraid of the dark and then at the end it's a real badger noise
i love it
oh you smell amazing what you're wearing it's badger
badger. Badger.
Oh, it smells amazing.
It smells like you might be possibly cheeky,
but definitely not afraid of the dark.
That's right, love.
It's badger.
It's awful, isn't it?
I'm going to have to Google it after this to find out who it is.
I'm wearing the order twilight and the deodorant.
This has really tickled Grace
badger
oh god
it goes in a
black and white bottle
are you okay
I don't know
I never know
what's going to
make you laugh
do you want to hear
the rest
I don't know I actually you want to hear the rest?
I actually just want to know more about these. I will find out about it.
When we have a little minute, I'll find out about them.
Rick had a collection of about seven sample bottles of these fragrances
as he was determined to find his smell.
I've been experimenting.
Yeah, this is a badger.
This is a vole.
This is a little tiny one, smaller one here.
This is field mouse.
What about fox?
This one makes no sound at all when you spray it.
Do you hear that?
What is it?
That's owl.
I've just got seven from the British Woodland Collection.
I've just got seven from the British Woodland Collection.
God, yeah, this is a grey squirrel.
There you go.
Big one, that.
This is rare, this one.
This one's red squirrel.
We've lost Chris.
Are you okay?
Sent away from the magazine.
I'm going to have a stort and a weasel.
They've all been calling you owl.
Owl?
Uh-huh.
Why?
They've all been calling you.
Online.
Why?
Eh?
Why?
Just, I don't know.
They've all been saying it.
Ah.
Okay, I get it.
You're trying to guess to see who.
Tosser.
Tried and failed.
Right, so he's got seven samples to determine to find his smell.
He gave each bottle a sniff and then passed them to me
He insisted I smell them all
as he read the descriptions to me
and asked me to give my verdict
Finally there was one bottle left
He opened it, smelt it
and instantly closed it and put it behind him
How strange I thought
I asked him if I could smell it
but he insisted it wasn't one of the good ones
How bad could it be?
What if this one is his smell?
Rick was suddenly being very cagey about it and started gathering up the other bottles, parties over.
I found this odd and amusing, so I kept asking to smell it.
I could tell he was trying to play it off, as if it was just an unpleasant sample,
but his behaviour was telling me there was something more to this.
My curiosity got the best of me, so I kept persuading him to let me smell it.
After a few minutes, he gave in and handed me the small bottle.
After a quick sniff, I instantly regretted my decision.
To my horror, the small bottle smelled like...
Mysteries, mysteries, mysteries, mysteries.
And what is it?
So it's in the Animal Farm Animals of Foddingwood collection.
Yeah.
And it's
he smelled all the others
so it's definitely
in the collection.
No I didn't say that.
I just said he had a
little bottle.
My brain's immediately
going to jizz.
It's immediately
going to jizz. Of course It's immediately going to jizz.
Of course it is.
Just because it's a little bottle.
So you wouldn't put piss or vomit or something in it
because they come in larger quantities.
Right.
I'm going to go with jizz.
Yeah.
Okay.
You're wrong.
Oh.
Been off or off.
To my horror, the small bottle smelled like...
Fanny. Old, manky, sample tube Fanny. been off or off to my horror the small bottle smelled like fanny old
monkey
sample tube
fanny
we locked eyes
both sets
stricken with fear
horror guilt and shame
I gave it back
and made some kind of joke
to break the silence
I left shortly after
never to see him again
been wondering about it
ever since
had the previous lockdown
driven me crazy
had my mind been warped by the isolation
making me jump to pervy assumptions
about people? But no, it was unmistakable.
Rick had a tube of his ex's
fanny juice.
People are
fucked. Why did he have this in the first place?
And why is he mixing it in with the bloody
animal farm set?
I mean, come on. Why did he still
have it post- up and most importantly
why the fuck
did I sit through
the smell test
of pretentious perfume
anyway
I guess we'll never know
anonymous
oh
I've got a
I've got a theory though
that he
I don't think
he's collected that
I think someone's
given him that
you think someone's
given him that
yeah I think someone's
given him it
as a present
I think he's got
I think he's had
them scents out
and he's done the same trick.
He probably does it
with all his women he meets.
Can I finish my theory?
Sorry, yes.
So I think he's done that.
He made the last smell them all
and then I think she's gone away
and went,
you know what,
you can add to your collection
this from Mother Jenna.
Right, so he's already smelled it
but then he's forgot that it's there.
No, I think he's kept it.
Rick's a perv.
Right, okay.
But he knows it's there. So my point is he wouldn't have sniffed it and then been's forgot that it's there no he's kept it right okay but he knows it's
there
so my point is
he wouldn't have
sniffed it
and then been so
cagey
he'd have went
oh god I think
this one's gone
off or something
like that
and that would
have
that would have
hid it
but he realised
and he didn't
hide it well
yeah
wow
fucking hell

Ooh,ingy gossip
from the swinging society.
Oh, we've got swingers stuff.
Just since we've been
talking about swingers,
we've had loads of stuff.
Right.
From swingers.
Very interesting.
And also,
I've had loads of Instagram reels
things of swingers.
Really?
Because they're always listening.
Yeah.
And I'm like,
I'm invested.
Do we believe it may be time for a new jingle? Oh, I'm like, but I'm invested. Do we believe
it may be time for a new jingle?
Oh, I can't do one on the fly.
I can.
Okay.
Swing low,
sweet chariot,
coming for the book,
your lass.
My lad.
Swing low,
sweet chariot,
coming for the book your lats.
Absolutely great.
Write that down, we'll remember that.
Hi, Rosie and Chris.
I'm not fussed about it if you keep being anonymous or not.
Let's just keep them anonymous.
Well, we always do.
Sounds like they're on the fence there. I listened to episode 230 last week,
and the bit where you spoke about swingers made me remember when me and my husband
went to a sex club for the first time last July.
Good grief.
We've been swinging for three years nearly now.
So we walked into the club really nervous
as it was our first time in a club.
We are a quite attractive couple apparently in the scene.
Oh God.
That to me says that everyone's rank.
Yeah, it's low.
Yeah, it's low balling, isn't it?
Yeah, it's in the kingdom of the blind,
the one-eyed man is king.
Never a truer phrase.
So we ended up speaking to a couple at the door.
Right.
We didn't even get past the door.
They are that lush.
They didn't make it past the door before someone went,
you're the luscious tier.
Booking you the night.
We were talking to them all night as they made us feel calm and chilled,
which is nice.
Okay.
You are supposed to mingle, but hey, hindsight is great.
And one thing led to another,
and we ended up in a playroom together and stuff started happening.
Wink, wink.
We are, in massive capital letters,
full swap couple.
So swap partners in the room
and it all of a sudden
got awkward.
What's happening?
A full swap couple?
So the go,
you have her,
I have him.
Yes.
Rather than like
just somebody joining with us
or whatever.
I've just had a weird thought there.
There's loads of rules in swinging.
Oh, unbelievable, man.
The fucking admin
that goes in all this shit. Couldn't be arsed. I've just had a really thought there just as you said it there's loads of rules in sweden oh unbelievable man the fucking admin that goes in all this shit couldn't be arsed um i've just had a really weird
thought right now i don't know if anyone else can did you ever have that thing so they've walked in
and the first couple on the door they spoke to and they've ended up tracking them right
so obviously when i was a kid i used to have to make loads of friends on holiday and i always had
this weird theory that you're like i would i don't i don't want to sound like a dickhead here but i would
make friends with someone on the first day yes and i'd be like right yeah we're mates and then
three or four days in i would meet someone else and i think oh my god you're like so much a better
friend than these other ones yeah but you have to stay faithful can you imagine that and so in the
swingers club i mean my rule would be don't book the people who you met right away.
Have a walk around first.
Oh, yeah.
Try before you buy.
Do you know what I mean?
That's like going up to a buffet,
and there's six tables at the buffet,
but going up to the first one and going,
oh, great, ribs and noodles, and piling your plate high,
and then walking back to your table and seeing sushi and pizza
and curry and all kinds.
Yeah.
Just a theory.
Yeah.
Just a theory.
And the thing is with sex as well,
it's not like one of them things
that your buffy can go back up for more but you can't really do it again can you i don't think so
unless you don't know i mean i'm sure i'm sure these dirty perverts can't carry on so they're
a full swap couple they're in the room they're starting to go for it right it all of a sudden
got awkward when he couldn't get it up with me after going down on me this could be a rosie's
mysteries jesus christ do you want to to guess it? This is a stranger.
This is a stranger.
So the woman who's talking now,
her husband's having his end of the way
with this person's wife.
With his first wife.
And she's with him.
So can you guess why you couldn't get it up?
I mean, I don't want to go...
No, I'm not even going to guess
because I'm just going to say something awful.
But trust us. I've got something in my head.
Okay.
If it's that, you have to trust us that I'm telling the truth.
I do, because that's what we do.
That's what we do.
All right, okay.
So he couldn't get it with me after going down on me
because his cousin barged in the room
as she had heard his voice.
They both had no idea that either was a swinger
and he ran out of the room bright red with his wife
and we never saw them again
right
full disclosure
that's not what I had in my head
right okay
what did you have in your head
a bit of toilet paper
and a fanny
oh right
okay
Jesus Christ
that's something
you can only carry on
with a loved one isn't it
yeah
yeah
yeah
not with a stranger
not with a stranger me and my husband laugh about Yeah. Yeah. Not with a stranger.
Me and my husband laugh about this all the time.
Oh, God.
Do you know what it is?
Good on people for going swinging.
Like, you know,
if that's what floats your boat,
I'm not judging.
I personally couldn't think
of anything worse, but...
Once again,
do whatever you want.
It is a free world.
Whatever makes you happy,
as long as everyone's
consensual and all that.
But I do reserve the right
to take the piss out of you for anything that you do. And that. But, I do reserve the right to take the piss out of you
for anything that you do
and that's one of the things
I'm going to take the piss
out of you for.
But do you know what's funny?
Here's something, right?
Here, this,
I've just thought of this
off the top of my head.
Oh,
don't pick it up,
it might be shit.
It probably is.
You know how we can get up
on stage
and be absolutely fine
and people go,
I don't know how you can do that.
Oh yeah, yeah.
It might be similar to that.
So I,
I don't know how people
can go to a club
and whilst they're with their partner
have sex with somebody else,
but that's just me because I'm just like that.
In my little vanilla little world,
I can't get into that.
But people look at us up on stage and go,
how do you do that?
It's a similar thing, isn't it?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's just whatever.
Float your boat.
Yeah.
Yes.
What?
Well, just just you know
I've done gigs
with my cousins
in the room
loads of the times
they never put me off
so I'm probably
better than this person
right
my cousins
I just keep going
jokes
ew
not sex
stop
