Hello, you're listening to Shag Married Annoyed
with me, Rosie Ramsey, and my husband, Christopher Ramsey. Hello, and a happy new year. A happy new year, you took the words Shag Married Annoyed with me Rosie Ramsey and my husband Christopher Ramsey.
Hello and a Happy New Year!
A Happy New Year, you took the words right out of my mouth.
Is that what you were about to do there?
I was just about to say that.
You were going to say something and you went, you're like hissed at us.
I was going to say firstly, Happy New Year.
Happy New Year.
2024.
2024.
It's mad actually, I always feel a bit weird in the 20s.
I don't know why.
What do you mean?
Like sci-fi shit.
Yeah.
Space age shit.
It's not though, is it?
It's not though.
It just feels a bit like that.
Every time it gets a bit more,
I'm like, whoa, 2024.
What I particularly enjoy doing
is watching an old film
and then seeing
what they thought life
was going to be like now.
Oh, that's always interesting.
Oh, right.
Yeah, fucking hell.
You really fast forwarded that,
didn't you?
But it's normally,
I know why they did it.
Yeah, but I know why they did it because it's normally they want they want a generational storyline they don't
just want the person to be so far in the future but like it like demolition man demolition man
right sylvester sloan gets frozen or whatever then he comes out and the young guy who he used
to work at the police station with is now an old guy at the police station so there's that character
connection whereas it's but it so they can't make it like 70 years time because they'll not be around 300
years time because then what's the character got it's just a fucking it'd just be a mess
okay well that makes sense so then they've just got to squeeze a lot into that time oh yeah we'll
all be somehow wiping our ass with imaginary seashells still don't know how that works
but yeah yeah but listen speaking of sci-fi shit, do you know what episode it is? No.

They're in the bin.
Yeah, we all know.
I did Rosie's Jotters.
Well, there you go.
You fucking arsehole.
So, the difference between a basement and a cellar.
Is this because we've just been talking about basements?
I was just talking about how I was playing on Spider-Man
and every house has got a basement
and I don't like that we don't have basements and cellars
as a standard in this country.
You ready to learn?
Stop.
Listen.
Stop.
No, actually, I'm going to change it.
It's not Christmas facts anymore.

Why don't you learn something every day?
Well, start the day.
Okay, then.
Ready?
Can I cough first?
Oh, God. Yes. I've had this? Can I cough first? Oh God, yes.
I've had this cough
for weeks and it's
really getting on my nerves.
It wakes me up in the
middle of the night
but I'm just going to
hang on.
Do your coughing.
There we go.
There it is.
Loudest cough in the world.
That's the thing about you.
I keep pissing myself.
You and our children
are the last.
Sorry?
Just when I cough.
Me, pelvic floor

Actually, I'm going to do
me pelvic floor exercises while we're here.
Right.
You and me.
Right.
Just piss myself.
Cool.
A little bit of wee comes out.
You'll never experience that.
Why are you rubbing it in?
I love pissing myself.
It's warm.
It feels good.
Don't want to have to go to the toilet.
Hey, are you sick of getting up
and walking to the toilet?
Just piss yourself.
I was going to say,
yeah, your cough is,
it's something to do with you being a singer.
Your cough is the loudest cough in the world.
When I'm sitting somewhere
and you go,
and you breathe in,
I know you're about to cough,
I fucking grimace.
Is it honestly?
Well, Robin's is really loud.
Yeah, yeah.
Yours is exactly the same.
And I'm like,
oh God,
here we go. It's this fucking... Isn't it really that bad? So loud. You've got the, yours is exactly the same. And I'm like, oh God, here we go.
It's this fucking...
Is it really that bad?
So loud.
You've got the loudest cough in the world.
It's unbelievable.
Yeah, rattles through the fucking head.
Come on!
Well done.
So, Abasement is a story of a building
partially below curb level,
but with at least one half of its height
above the curb level.
A cellar is an enclosed space
having more than one half of its
height below curb level thank you so thanks for that let's start 2024 learning and you know if
you know if you nodded off during that you're nodded off during that it's just they should
build basements that you were just saying so that with all the new bills dig fucking a bit
dig a bit lower down and give us i I just want somewhere to put all me shit.
Just give them
more fucking storage.
Like,
you're not going
anywhere further out.
You're not making
the plot bigger.
Just dig fucking down a bit
and lather it in concrete
and let's put me
fucking Christmas trees
out there.
There'll be a reason why.
What's the problem?
It'll be more expensive.
Oh,
it'll be some shit like that.
My mate growing up,
Ozine had a basement.
Yeah.
The cellar.
We used to call it the cellar.
Oh yeah,
you were rich friends,
you didn't you?
Yeah.
Rich friends.
It was pure decked out. We used to sleep down there. Yeah yeah it was pure decked out it was we used to sleep down there it was like really nice it was
our dad's office down there yeah had a like a bathroom a little kitchenette in a living room
it was absolutely in a basement in the basement yeah holy shit yeah had a separate entrance and
everything could have been could someone could live there if they wanted to shout out everyone
listening who's got a basement if you're sitting there now and you've got a basement,
check your fucking privilege!
Some people don't have basements.
Get rid of that basement now.
Pour the concrete in.
Or donate.
If you'd like to donate your basement to a worthy cause.
Don't they get really pissed off in London, though,
because that's what they all do.
All the mega wealthy people just dig down.
So if you buy a lush house in a lush street in London and you're like
literally like
oh my god
I can't believe I live here
there's just works
constantly
Russian oligarch
either sides of you
building pools
in their basement
and they're never there
fucking nightmare
I've watched programs
you know
because I love all them
kind of shit right
that's
that's probably my favourite
program in the world
to watch
hold on
you're going to tell me
so I've lost count
of how many times
you've told me this
but I don't think
you've said it on the podcast you're going to tell me about the flowers've lost count of how many times you've told me this, but I don't think you've said it on the podcast.
You're going to tell me about the flowers, aren't you?
Oh my God.
Here we go.
Here we go.
So, right.
I watched this program once
and it was just basically telling you,
just showing you all of these absolutely like...
Mad rich.
Just mad, mad.
Private jet fuckers.
Yeah.
Billionaire, billionaire houses, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So there was a family and they owned houses all over the world and they had a house in houses, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. So there was a family
and they owned houses all over the world
and they had a house in London, right?
And it was worth about 35 million.
Okay, massive, lush, unreal.
Bet they had a fucking basement.
It would have had a basement.
Had a swimming pool, had a lot.
I bet they had a basement and a cellar.
Yeah, had everything, right?
They had a full staff working there.
Brilliant.
The family used to go twice a year
for about three weeks at a time.
Wow.
And it was still,
I mean, the easiest fucking job in the world.
Imagine.
Imagine.
There it is.
Yeah.
Oh, what's your job?
I'm a housekeeper.
Oh, wow.
Gosh.
How many rooms is there?
12 rooms.
Oh, bloody hell, I bet you.
They're never there.
Yeah.
I'd literally be like,
they're never there.
Yeah.
I'd sleep there, mate.
I'd take me family.'d take me family I'd live
I'd fucking
I'd live there
then they'd turn up
they'd turn up one day
and then you'd be like
they would turn up
you know
the Arab prince
or the Russian billionaire
oil man
would turn up
and he'd go to his bedroom
and you
would be in the bed
fucking no bra on
with me tan on
Doritos all over you
tan on you
watching Grey's Anatomy
on his big telly
and he'd be fucking
fuming
but then he'd ask us
to marry him
because he'd say
I've never seen this
in my life
this is real life
I'd go
honey
I'm real
and then he'd marry us
and I'd fuck you off
and I'd live there
all the time
anyway
you wouldn't even
feel the move
because you'd have
your tan on
you wouldn't have
anything else
breathing on you
you'd have Dorito crumbs
on your hands
don't call them Doritos Dorito crumbs and you'd be fucking
crying your eyes out of grazing at me and you'd go get out of my bed and you go
i've got me time i just need to get me tan off and then i'll go i'll be like i've cleaned the
bathroom um so yeah so what what the thing that the thing that got is the most right because
obviously in the back of my head i was like Jesus Christ they're paying the bills and the council tax
and all this shit and what the hell right
yeah the biggest
thing to me was that they
got fresh flowers new
fresh flowers delivered every week
for nobody
and they changed the flowers every week and I just thought
that's stupid
that's a proper way I mean the florist
was buzzing
keep making business just thought that's stupid yeah that's a that's a proper way i mean the florist was buzzing she's
like keep me in business but in the one in the one little there weren't little like you know
there weren't a bunch of tulips we're talking hallway table in the middle of hallway like
someone's got a hallway big enough yeah for a table to go right in the center and you're not
going who fucking put this table here you're going all right the table needs to be here oh this is a
dance floor and we're talking big flowers in the middle every time we go past
a big house in london you tell me that story i know because it's really every single day
massive that i watched this show i think i've said it on the podcast before i was really god
it stuck with me yeah just and i love them kind of honestly if anyone's listening from like factual
tv program make more because i just want to see in them.
Just love looking, love nebbing in a skin of the country.
You love nosy twat stuff is your favourite thing.
Oh, yeah, they're my favourite programmes.
It shouldn't be documentaries or lifestyle.
It should be nosy twat.
Nosy twat, yeah.

He has a person with fucking 600 kids.
He has a person with the smallest house in the world. He has a person with the smallest house in the world.
He has a person
with the biggest house in the world.
He has a person fucking...
If you can go through,
literally go through someone's drawers
or go into someone's fucking cupboards
through the telly,
you would do it.
So without further ado,
it's time for the first lucrative,
lucrative sponsor of 2024.

straight out of the toaster.
This week's sponsor is
Toasted Tea Cakes.
Toasted Tea Cakes.
And you had to...
Toasted...
Thank your wife.
Thank your wife.
Where they've been all my life.
Where they've been all my life.
Mate!
Where have they been
all my life? How many times have I... In the 10 years we've been together, how many times have I said to you, do you want you, wife. Where have they been all my life? Where have they been all my life? Mate! Where have they been all my life? How many times have I,
in the 10 years we've been together,
how many times have I said to you,

How long have they been a thing?
You're like, no.
How long have toasted tea cakes?
Forever.
No, listen, right?
You, this has been, I feel,
people have been keeping these away from me, right?
Fair enough, you and the kids
have had them nearly every day
for about five or six years,
but that doesn't count, right?
How long have they been a thing?
I've done it again. I assumed, i've watched you and the kids eat them day in day out day in day out i've even buttered them for the kids yeah and i've just i've stood rosie i've stood buttering
them for years and i've just gone i don't think i like this it's got raisins in it like i won't
like it yeah and i took a bite of one the other day and I immediately put another one in the toaster.
Like, I think...
You are such an arrogant prick.
I might be a prick.
New Year, new me.
I think I might be a total arsehole.
How are you just realising this?
Rosie, I've licked the knife.
I've buttered them.
I've licked the knife afterwards and went,
I like butter.
That butter tastes a bit different.
Tastes a bit better, that butter.
I wonder why.
Years.
And I had my first one the other day.
They're unreal, mate.
Fucking hell.
Unreal.
And they're so easy.
And they're just...
Some people have cheese in them, you know.
I mean...
What?!
No, honestly, I think they do.
I think they're quite...
No, I'm just...
You know I love cheese.
I put cheese on anything.
Well, I've started putting ham in me croissants
and it's changed me life.
Fucking hell.
Honestly. Because I... Well, I don't really like cheese. Sorry, everyone. I'll eat it if I'm starving and if it's around, I will started putting ham in me croissants and it's changed me life. Honestly.
Because I don't really like cheese.
Sorry, everyone.
I'll eat it if I'm starving
and if it's around, I will eat it, right?
Sorry, everyone.
People get dead upset when you tell them you don't like...
Again, again, again, again.
So offended.
Again, we've been over this.
We've been over this.
You do like cheese.
You think you don't like cheese.
Cheese on toast.
You have some cheese on toast.
Do you want cheese on toast?
I do like cheese on toast.
Do you want cheese toasty?
Yes.
Do you want pizza?
Yes.
Shut up then.
Yes, but do I want to go to
Black's Corner
which I love
in East Bolden
by the way
if you haven't
been yet
you're living
under a rock
unbelievable
do I want to
go to Black's Corner
and eat the cheese
that they bring out
no I don't
there's a difference
I'm the same as you
I enjoy
you know
I like
there's a difference
between liking cheese
and being able
to eat cheese
or being able
to take a big
fucking bite of a big fucking bite
of a big blue veiny
bit of Stilton.
Like,
I'm the same as you.
I like cheese
to the same point
that you like cheese.
I'm alright.
Get the brie out of my face.
I'm alright.
I mean,
sometimes I have
that little dry,
you've never done a thing
where you have a little bit
of dry cheese
and then you have the grapes?
No.
Unbelievable.
Do you know why the grapes,
I thought the grapes
were on the cheese board
just for a garnish.
No,
it'll do something.
Oh,
you put the dry bit of cheese in your mouth,
and then you put the...
Oh, fucking hell, I tell you what.
Anyway.
What?
I'm really glad that you like cake cakes,
and I'm really glad that...
I am annoyed that you didn't tell me about them sooner.
Oh, you can literally...
I've been eating cake cakes for years.
Yes, but, but, but,
you know it takes me quite a while to give in to something.
No, I'm not giving up.
No, listen, once I've decided I don't...
Roughly, let's say I think they've been in the house for two years.
I think I've been making them for a year, right?
So you knew that there was this buffer.
The day we met, the first thing you said to me
should have been toasted tea cakes on ice, by the way,
to give us a chance to get used to them.
Because I feel like I've wasted years.
I'm not doing that.
Oh, just on another thing.
We tried gnocchi for the first time last night.
You made gnocchi?
I made gnocchi.
You made gnocchi?
Yeah.
Seven out of ten.
Yeah?
Too much prep.
God, fuck me.
There's a lot going on, right?
Oh, Jesus Christ.
Too much.
Too much.
Just too much.
So, you had to boil the potatoes.
No, I roasted the potatoes.
They were like jack potatoes.
I did loads of them.
And then you scooped them all out
yeah and by the way
I found it really upsetting
because I love
jack of potatoes
is my favourite food
awful
but having to open
all of the potatoes
and not eat them
like that
and just kind of
scoop them out
and then mash them
really upset us
I'm gonna
I'm gonna
I'm gonna put my life
on the line here
and say I guarantee
you had a couple
of handfuls
of hot potato
oh god yeah
I've looked at it
I've ate most of the skin
skin on the potato
is the best bit of the potato yeah there was a big pile of potato skins I didn't know what skin skin on the potato was the best
bit of the potato
yeah there was a big pile
of potato skins
I didn't know what was going on
I was like back on that
I'm gonna have some
for my lunch
great
but yeah
you were mashing
all the potato together
I had to put
I stood there next year
put so much flour in it
that I was like
this is gonna be
fucking inedible this
this is the most flour
I've ever seen in anything
then you let Robin do it
and then Robin walked
around the kitchen
with floury potato hands
he's opened every fucking cupboard, by the way.
It's like the cupboards have got fucking eczema, right?
They're flaking away.
I want to get something out of the cupboard.
It's so bad.
Unbelievable.
Because when you said it,
when you said,
we're going to have to go around
and wipe all these knobs.
You thought I was bullshit.
I thought you were bullshit.
I was like, what are they?
Fucking freezer.
Everything.
Everything.
I was watching
Spider-Man 3 last night
yeah Spider-Man 3
it looks like
you know Sandman
the guy who turns into sand
it looks like he's
opened all of our fucking cupboards
there's just grit
on every cupboard
I know a lot of the Spider-Man
but the third one
I don't know very well
with Tobey Maguire
yeah
you need to watch the third one again
I didn't like it at the time
but it's really really good
I watched it last night
listen
got loads of stuff to watch
this is the longest introduction
we've ever done
but it's good to be back it's nice to Listen. Got loads of stuff to watch. This is the longest introduction we've ever done.
But it's good to be back.
It's nice to have verbal diarrhea.
It's very nice to be back.
I would say,
can I just say it?
What?
Fucking,
alright.
Like most colleagues when they go back to work
be like,
eee,
missed you,
been,
we've seen each other
every past 10 days.
Well,
let's discuss that
after the jingle.
We had a fight
about the jingle,
jingle.
We couldn't settle
on a jingle, jingle. So this 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, bah!
Jingle!
Hello and welcome back to this week's, this New Year's week.
This, oh, this year's episode.
This year's episode of Shag Mary Lloyd.
Genuinely hope you all had
a dead lovely Christmas,
whatever you were up to.
Hope it was nice and chilled
and not too stressful,
et cetera,
et cetera.
Yeah,
just all you know,
you might like stress,
you might not like chilled,
you might like absolute carnage
and if we,
we hope you had the Christmas
that you,
and the festive period
that you wanted.
Yeah.
Because some people
don't like chill
and I call those people fucking nuts.
Ours was crazy.
Genuinely, the best Christmas I've ever had, though.
Yeah?
Yeah, I went into it just with the thing of, like,
I'm not getting stressed.
Yeah.
I just thought, you know what it is?
If people haven't got their presents on time,
if I haven't bought anything for Christmas lunch
or if something isn't prepared, I don't give a shit.
Because every year I overthink it and I think everything has to be perfect
and this has to be that.
And I didn't do it this year because we've been so busy with the tour.
And I just wanted to relax.
And honestly, I don't feel relaxed because we've had the kids every day
and it's been a bit intense.
But I did feel,
I just felt more relaxed than other years.
And I thoroughly enjoyed it.
I've still got presents to give.
I still have presents to buy.
I've missed out.
I've got a list in my phone of like,
yeah, there's like five people I still haven't given presents.
Just people you go,
I'll just see you after the Christmas one.
That was circumstantial.
That was because we couldn't,
that was like people who live further away, which makes sense. But that's fine. It is what it is. Do people, you go, I'll just see you after the Christmas one. That was circumstantial. That was because we couldn't, that was like people
who live further away,
which makes sense,
but that's fine.
It is what it is.
Do you know,
honestly,
hand on heart,
I love getting a present
late after Christmas.
It's quite cool,
isn't it?
It's really good
because you're kind of like,
oh,
yeah,
the kids love it as well.
Well,
we let,
so we let the kids
open some Christmas presents
on Christmas Eve.
Yeah.
Because sometimes on the day
when there's aunties and uncles
and loads of people,
it gets too much
and you think,
oh my gosh, no, no, no, no.
That was a really good idea
to be fair.
Really good idea.
Have you got any
New Year's resolutions?
Learn about cellars.
Learn the difference
between cellars and basement
was top.
Tick.
Right.
Done that one.
Well done.
So I can probably just chill
for the rest of the year.
Okay.
Good for you.
Just chill.
Good for you.
Just, that was it really.
I might look into it
a bit further
but not really
surface level
done mate
roll on 25
so now
I think they're a crock of shit
to be honest with you
well I read a thing
sorry to interrupt there
I read a thing that said
that always
scientists reckon
they always fail
because they're too
there's too much pressure
and they're too big
of course
so someone literally will be like sitting on New Year's Eve having's too much pressure and they're too big of course so someone
literally will be like sitting on new year's eve having a fucking kebab and they'll go right yeah
next year i'm vegan and you go it's not that kind of huge fucking change isn't possible like so
quickly and just because it's a new year when it's not really a new year it's just another day
i think that that's what they mean do you agree what's yours i feel like you've got a new year's resolution that you're going to try
no i don't i don't necessarily i want to cook more right i want to cook more from scratch
especially for the kids yeah um because well we still do hello fresh which is great yeah but we
get three a week of them yeah i always remember my mom we had like proper dinners all the time.
And although my mum did work well,
I need to just prioritise cooking a bit more.
I just want to cook more.
I really love cooking.
Can you also prioritise emptying the dishwasher
and tidying up after you've cooked?
Is that...?
Can't.
That's not actually part of my resolution.
See, because one of my resolutions is to not have a kitchen
that looks like a fucking bomb hitter.
Right, okay then.
Well, listen.
Listen, if you enjoy scrambled egg on toast for tea
and maybe, you know, oven chips with a side of beans,
then...
Yeah, 100%.
Okay, then we're fine.
Right.
You can crack on with that.
Good.
Okay.
Well, half the kitchen island.
Do I have to cook them in a dirty, awful kitchen
that looks like it's just
been raided by the drug squad?
Yes.
With mashed potato handles,
etc.
I might as well eat all that
knuckle you've made.
Here's something.
Have you heard about
a trend that's happening
on TikTok and Instagram
at the minute?
God!
No.
Maybe I might have
skimmed past it.
I don't know
so I only just heard
about this today
because I listened to
a podcast called
Under the Influence
by a lady called
Jo Piazza
I hope I'm getting
her name right
sadly that one's
now finished
we are now again
the only podcast
in the world
the episode that
we've always listened to
and then it's gone
so don't try looking for it
or any other podcast
it's ridiculous
I need that
no it's really good
I've listened from the beginning it's all about um kind of like social
instagram influencers and mom mommy and bloggers and all that it's really interesting anyway
there's this trend called uh soft girl era jesus okay so i'm already annoyed yeah it's it i'd be
i'd just a little kind of looking into it now on tiktok and it's
interesting so there's part of it that i really agree with and there's part of it that i'm like
what the fuck so soft girl era is a lot of women in their 20s like they don't they don't have
children they don't they're all they all seem very rich they're always very well off right
sorry to interrupt but they're not all the only the ones that you see are rich because they're
the ones that people like to watch does that make sense yes so all of these want there'll be loads of people doing it
or there'll be loads of people love that you don't know what it is yet yeah but all i'm saying is the
only ones you want because you watch and you go sometimes i watch them and i don't even know what
they're saying but i go fuck me look at that fucking pool in the background who the fuck's
this yeah yeah so yeah well there's just elements of it that are quite interesting but then so it's
basically saying so it's last is when the 20s and it's like a soft girl era where's just elements of it that are quite interesting. But then, so it's basically saying, so it's, last I saw in the 20s,
and it's like a soft girl era where you just kind of like,
you look after yourself.
Yeah.
You make sure that you're looking after your mental health.
Yeah.
You do your skincare, your exercise.
You don't want too much drama in your life.
Like, you just kind of take a step back from all that stuff.
Okay.
And you don't, so I grew up in a in a generation of hustle
hustle hustle
yeah
so when I was in my 20s
at one point
I had like three jobs
because I was just like
bish bash bash
I understand
do you know what I mean
and you were the same
I think it's a
when I started stand up
I was
I lived every night
on the fucking motorways
exactly
I lived on Ginsters
I looked like shit
all photos of me doing stand up
I looked like I'm dying.
Yeah.
And I don't think that that was healthy.
No.
And I think we're all taking it into our 40s as well.
And I think we're all sort of still,
we're still doing that.
Yeah.
It's still very much,
I think there's a big generation where we like,
we live to work, not work to live.
Right.
And it's just too much.
So this,
so from that I can take of just kind of trying to just
chill the fuck out a little bit.
Sorry, so they've named it Soft Girl Era
but it's just rich 20-something women
doing football.
Well, that's the part of it
that I don't agree with
because it's like,
do your skin care,
go for a manicure.
It's like, well, these all cost money
and who's paying for these things
because to pay for them things,
you have to fucking work.
Okay.
But look, I've...
But, sorry, I'm on a little bit of a...
Can I just...
Yeah, you can, but I've got something to say after this.
Right.
This is great for me.
I'm having a lovely time.
Continue.
Okay, okay.
But I just, I would like to take a little bit of that into my own life and just kind
of just chill the fuck out a bit because I feel like my last five years of my life have
been a bit extreme.
Okay.
And I want to, this year still gotta work still gotta
pay the goddamn money money money bitch pay them bills but fuck that was not as like sorry i think
we just got we're just getting a rub by sean paul's podcast money money money
just look after myself a bit more right okay so you want to be less stressed and do less things
and but you look after yourself and be a bit less stressed yeah in life and be a bit more relaxed
yet
last night you decided
with two children in the house
to make fucking
gnocchi from scratch
and let them help
and let them cover
the entire kitchen
in fucking potato
yes but that stresses you out
that doesn't stress me out
oh it's alright
it's alright
it stresses me out
no but you
alright
you had nothing to do
with the gnocchi making
you were nowhere
to be fucking seen
so why would it
stress you out
I ate it
I helped put the fucking what do you call it stress you out i ate it uh i helped put
the the fucking the what you call it the not talcum powder what was it flour
wow why did you have so much talcum powder at knock it was horrible um literally only he's 37
years old he's only just had a toasted tea cake for the first time and he doesn't know what flour
is called i just couldn't get me where. Fuck me. Where did you grow up?
I am 100% on board
with this thing
that you've just said.
I think I'm going to try
to take some of that
into my life as well.
Yes, soft man era.
Soft person era.
No, hold on, hold on.
It needs to be all of us.
No, can I call it something else?
Because soft man era,
that just sounds like
I'm having erectile dysfunction.
Okay, right, watch.
Oh, look, he's nearly in his floppy 40s.
There he is.
Look at him.
What do you want to call it then?
It's do less.
Chill the fuck out.
Do less.
Yeah.
It's not even do less.
Just do, I don't know.
I've seen them.
I've seen them.
I know.
I see them popping up on Instagram and it's like, oh, yeah,
wake up with me and the fucking sit.
And there's no,
look,
I could do that every day if I wasn't fucking dragged out of bed.
Rafe came running into the room this morning,
open the fucking curtains,
grabbed us and went,
we're going downstairs.
Oh yeah,
they don't have kids.
I hadn't even had my first piss and I was making pancakes.
Can I just tell you though,
as a person who edits videos quite a lot for Instagram,
it takes ages.
It's bullshit.
And they're having to set the...
Right, if you're going to take anything into this year,
all right, listening, you guys listening,
me and you,
everything that you see online is a crock of fucking shit.
Do not believe anything you see.
They have to set up that camera.
They have to put the music on.
They'll set it properly.
It takes so much time.
And it's bullshit.
It's bullshit.
They'll film it a million times and they will it takes so much time and it's bullshit they'll
they'll film it a million times and they will look how serene and beautiful this is yeah i've
just watched five minutes of you having a beautiful morning but for the rest of the day you sat and
fucking edited that yeah like i do the videos of it i've done a few cooking videos and i've moved
the camera at a point you know and i'm like oh well well no but i've just had to leave it because
i'm not doing it again like it is what it is
there's background noise there's the i want to try and bring a little bit of realism to to the
because i love watching cooking videos on instagram i love watching people cook and i get loads of
recipes but they're too perfect so i wanted to make mine not perfect oh yeah yours will never be
perfect do you remember when jamie oliver first came out and it was like he was called the naked
chef because it was just like he Naked Chef because he didn't have
Delia Smith and all them back in the day.
The hall had the little glass ramekins
and it was like, and two tablespoons of talcum powder.
And it was already
in a little glass ramekin and then they put that underneath
and you'd watch it going, who fucking cleans them?
He was just,
grab a handful of this and fucking get
your elbow in there and fucking mash it down.
You will be another level.
Yours will be like, you know, not like the naked chef of Just Just Stripped All That Away.
Just the kind of, oh my God, she's cooking in a fucking war zone.
That child has just walked past with his dick out and the other one's just got a potty on his head.
And what's her husband doing there?
Why is he cleaning all the door handles?
What's that on the door handles?
Why is that fire alarm going off?
It'll be fucking carnage.
I know.
How to cook in a nuclear fucking Holocaust
is what yours will be.
Well, hey.
Yeah.
That's it though, isn't it?
When you're cooking,
when you're a family,
your kids are there.
It's not serene and nice.
It's real.
Well, also,
just on the subject of people editing videos,
I have told you before, haven't I, i when i got in so you get drivers around london who drive like for tv and for shows and different
things they use the same kind of company and they're booking the drive sometimes you see the
same kind of driver oh hello mate you're right it's nice to see you again they'll be taking you
a tv studio whatever i got in a car once not mention any names but i got in a car once, not mention any names but I got in a car once and he was driving us somewhere
and he just had someone else in the car
who was an influencer
and this influencer was sitting in the back of the car
on their laptop, editing
a vlog
and this influencer had forgot their headphones
so for an hour and a half
in London traffic, they sat and edited
their vlog
with the speakers full
whack oh my god and i got in his car he was a fucking broken man he literally went i went
you all right he went no i want to mind when i've just had such and such in the car i went oh they're
not very nice he went i don't know they didn't speak they just sat on the laptop but like little
i mean when you when you're editing the video i have to get you to put your headphones in because
it's just it's like someone it's like it's like a dj just scratching a record of just
the same words again you couldn't do it i was going to cry i can't do it i haven't got the
attention span i haven't got one of me new year's resolutions was going to be i should probably do
a bit more on instagram just let people know what's going on and just but fucking can't be
arsed i can't be arsed even look on it no i can't be bothered i don't think i quite like it i'm not
i don't know i go through stages
of it of social media where i'm like oh fuck this but then there's other times when i really love it
so it just depends how how much i've been trolled that week to be honest with you well i don't i
get sort of trolled by the world because i'll go on instagram i'll be flicking through i'll be
watching jujitsu videos and i'll be looking at different things i like and then it'll be a news
thing saying uh or um a global warming's actually caused by humans breathing.
And I go, right, well, there's me weak fucked.
And I turn my phone off.
Yeah, yeah.
You can't deal with...
I believe people call it triggered,
but I don't like triggered,
but I believe I do get triggered.
You do get triggered.
You are.
Listen, you are poster boy for Trigger.
Trigger Happy TV.
Speaking of Trigger,
should we do this week's beef?
We've got to stop the recording because I'm scared.
Okay.
But it will come back.
All right.
I have to separate it into bits or I'll lose files.
Yeah.
It's time for What's Your Beef?
What's Beef?
What's Beef?
What's Beef?
Beef.
Beef.
Beef.
Beef.
Beef.
Beef.
Beef.
Beef.
Beef.
Okay.
Ladies first or gentlemen first?
You go first.
If you are a lady, if I am a gentleman.
Nah.
Neither.
Neither.
So just to let everyone behind the curtain here we sat down
to do the podcast yesterday yeah and we just couldn't do it no i was actually ready you
couldn't do it take that back no because a couple of times i said okay do you want to and you went
i don't know so you weren't 100 ready tell the truth now gun to your head you were you 100 ready
i wasn't i was about 85 but i got loads of life admin done yesterday so that was nice right so i
did stuff like that as well
plus I went to the shops
and got normal
just did normal shopping
and came back
like I had this
because we came straight off the tour
and then straight
took the kids to Lapland UK
big shout out
Lapland UK
it was fucking incredible
like
so good
I've told everyone I know
that at some point
in their kids lives
when they're a bit older I think
so they can remember it like Robin
was 8 I would say
from 5 onwards personally for me
because I think it's one of them things it's quite
it's not cheap right I'm not going to lie it's not cheap
and it's at the other end of the country
and so it'll have to be
like a trip if you're from up north
but I just think it's so magical
take it from us it is unbelievable
the whole thing was brilliant.
Apart from when the elves got me up at the beginning to dance.
They knew what they were doing in front of everyone in the whole place.
They knew what they were doing.
Fair play to you, but if I ever see you in public, you're fucking dead.
You'll never see them in public because they live in Lapland.
Well, we'll see.
We'll see.
Watch your back is all I'm
saying watch your
back protect your
neck because I'm
coming for you
all three years
even the girls
now listen
it's got wild
we sat down to
do the podcast
yesterday and we
couldn't do it
because we came
somewhere and
went straight there
and we're into
Christmas and
there's kids
every day and
it's crazy
and yesterday was
the first day where
the kids were out
of the house
and I felt like we
hadn't had a conversation
that wasn't a blaring fucking row or a go and get us that for three weeks.
Because we've been in survival mode.
Survival mode with the kids.
We didn't have a crossed word in our life until Robin was born.
We didn't argue about a single thing until Robin was born.
And people don't believe that, but that's 100% true.
It's crazy.
So the kids put the stress on.
We end up taking it out on each other because we don't shout and scream at the kids. Well, you don't believe that but that's 100% true it's crazy so the kids put the stress on we end up taking it out on each other
because we don't shout
and scream at the kids
well you don't
I do
so
I've got a beef written down
of something that happened
the other day
but I'm
as I wrote it down
I had two possibilities
and as I wrote it down
is it wise to bring this back up
because we are friends again
yeah
because we're friends again
and yesterday
we had a little cuddle yesterday
and I was like
yeah I feel like we're friends again
I feel like we're back
on the same wavelength.
Because doing a podcast together
is fucking weird
and people,
whenever we do TV shows,
they go,
you share a lot
and is it weird working together?
It's not weird working together
and it's not hard working together,
but you have to be
on the same wavelength
or you can't do it.
If I'm fucking buzzing
and you're not
or vice versa,
it's hard.
So we're now on the same wavelength
and I feel like I may shatter it,
but I feel like
I was 100% in the right when you did this stupid thing the same wavelength and i feel like i may shatter it but i feel like i was 100
in the right when you did this stupid thing the other day and it's me beef and i'm annoyed about
it still and i feel like i should just fucking i'm gonna do it right my beef oh jesus christ
you ready am i gonna fall out with you i don't think so i don't think it's too bad
all right go on my beef with you this week yeah is uh sub beef sub beef before we get to the beef um you know like
footnote in route of the beef uh i put up all the decorations this year and took down all the
decorations this year just so you know i did the line share of all that just so you know yeah but
okay while you were doing that i was there with looking after the kids like
okay sorry i never i didn't think i would get just chris i was there well i was literally there with looking after the kids. Footnote. Okay, sorry.
I didn't think I would get chast... Chris, I was there.
Well.
I was literally there with you.
Barely.
Now.
Is this some sort of joke?
Okay.
Now, right?
Listen to this.
This is the one.
I'm already annoyed.
I thought so.
So, I took the tree down in the living room.
I took all of the things off it.
I put them in a little...
All the decorations, I put them in a little bag. I took the light off, I put it in a bag. I took the tree down in the living room I took all of the things off it I put them in a little I put all the decorations
I put them in a little bag
I took the light off
I put it in a bag
I took the tree apart
I put the tree in the tree bag
I took it out of the room
I went upstairs to the loft
I put it in the loft
I came back down
and I looked at where the tree was
and there was glitter on the floor
and there was bits of tree stuff on the floor
yeah
and I got the hoover
and I went over
and you looked at me and you went I've just hoovered there I had yeah and i got the hoover and i went over and you looked at me and you went
i've just hoovered there i had yeah and i went well i'm okay i went i didn't know you'd hoovered
and you went what i have and i went but i can see glitter and loads of bits of stuff of tree
and you went but i've just hoovered and i went well well yeah love Cool story, bro. But there's still glitter and stuff there.
And you doubled down again and you went,
but I've just hoovered there.
So what was I supposed to do?
Because you were fuming with this.
Was I supposed to just respect your terrible effort at hoovering
and wait a few days
so I didn't overshadow
your horrendous achievement
of hoovering that area
so as not to upset you
and not step on your toes?
Or was I just supposed to
hoover all the shit up
that you fucking missed
and get bollocked for it in the process?
So I would go for option one.
I would go for option one.
I was so annoyed. I'd hoovered the whole down there option one. I would go for option one. Wait, so you...
I was so annoyed.
I'd just...
I'd hoovered the hole
down there, everywhere.
Didn't fucking look like it.
Well, obviously the hoover's
broken in your hoover
because every time
you fucking move it,
something comes out of it, right?
I emptied it.
It was full and I emptied it
before I came back.
Okay.
Listen, hey, you are...
You are just the best.
Honestly, well done.
Well done. Do you know what's so weird about my life and our house? The stuff I do, the best honestly well done well done
do you know what's so weird
about my life
in our house
the stuff I do
loads of fucking stuff
I don't mention it
I don't ever mention it
because I just do it
so
sorry
so
okay okay
I'll take that point
would sitting there going
ah just who are they
does that fall under
not mentioning it
or does that fall under
that falls under
you getting on my tits
me trying to watch
a program with rave that we really got into right and you fucking hoovering everywhere that i just
hoovered okay and i find that really passive aggressive and awesome whereas if you said to
me i've just hoovered there i go all right i don't need to do it again but yeah i can see
all right okay scenario scenario A
I hate you
right
scenario A
scenario A
you come into the kitchen
I'm sitting
in the living room
I can see the kitchen
from where I am
there's Rice Krispies
all over the floor
thousands of Rice Krispies
on the floor
you get the hoover
and you begin to hoover
the Rice Krispies
and I say
er
what you doing Rosie
and you go
I'm hoovering the floor and I go erm I've just hoover the Rice Krispies. And I say, what are you doing, Rosie? And you go,
I'm hoovering the floor.
And I go,
I've just hoovered that.
Do you ignore the thousands of Rice Krispies?
Oh, no worries.
You're a fucking liar.
Babe, no worries, babe.
I'll put this away.
You know, right, okay.
In my defense,
there was not loads of mess. I had just hoovered, Chris. You're so anal. The glitter on this away. You know, right, okay. In my defense, there was not loads of mess.
I had just too much, Chris.
You're so anal. The glitter on that floor.
You're so anal.
There was so much glitter on the floor.
It looked like there's just...
Rosie, it looked like there just...
Guys, who do you believe more?
There was not loads of glitter on the floor.
Guys, it looked like they just filmed...
Don't guys my guys.
These are my guys.
It looked like they just filmed an episode of RuPaul's Drag Race
in the corner of that fucking room.
There was glitter everywhere.
However, what's your beef? of RuPaul's Drag Race in the corner of that fucking room. There was glitter everywhere. How are they?
What's your beef?
Well,
mine are all pretty actually alright.
Annoyingly.
Oh, I've got a beef about Christmas Day.
How are they?
So,
I know what this is.
During Christmas Day,
well, everyone was there.
So I had my sister,
my dad,
my mum,
your mum and dad
and the kids.
Everyone was still there.
It was about half past three in the afternoon.
We'd finished lunch.
Chris, Chris fell asleep.
Okay.
Which is fine, I suppose.
Not well, not really.
Because they were due to go at like five.
I was like, can you just say it at the end of the day, Grandpa?
Like, do you know what I mean?
It was rude as fuck
and I was a bit raging.
Wait,
just wait till everyone's gone
before you fall asleep.
Okay,
but my actual beef is...
Hold on,
you haven't explained
where I fell asleep.
Oh,
on the sofa
beside everybody.
Corner-shaped sofa.
Yeah.
I was in the middle
of multiple people.
It was horrendous.
Right next to your dad.
Horrendous.
I fell asleep.
There's nothing I do.
Rafe was sitting on me knee.
I didn't feel great.
I fell asleep. I apologise. It is really fucking sitting on my knee I didn't feel great I fell asleep
I apologise
it is really fucking rude
okay fine
but you know
it was either that
I get the hoover out
I start painting
some people just don't
they just don't leave
the beef isn't with you
falling asleep
because you know
whatever
fuck you
you don't bring much
to the table
conversation wise anyway
so we weren't lacking anything
if I'm honest with you
the beef was later on
when
so bearing in mind we'd had Christmas Eve Christmas Day it hadn't been on my phone much at all Lacking anything, if I'm honest with you. The beef was later on when...
So, bearing in mind, we'd had Christmas Eve, Christmas Day.
I hadn't been on my phone much at all.
And it'd been quite nice.
Christmas Day night, the kids were just watching telly.
Yeah.
I had nothing to do.
I'd done all my job.
Because Christmas Day, you know, you put the decorations up.
I did everything on Christmas Day.
I set all the table.
I made all of the Christmas lunch for like 10 people.
Oh, are you mentioning this?
Only because you did, arsehole.
Anyway, I was on my phone and Chris,
Chris decided that that was the right time to say it to me.
You're not involved with everybody and you're on your phone,
which I then had to bring up to him when we had a house full of guests.
You fell asleep.
Please tell me
how now that everybody's left
and my children are just sat watching a film
that I have to fucking entertain you.
Do I get an apology at all for that?
Once we've stopped recording
I might apologise.
Please do it.
Please do it now.
No, yes. That was, you were literally like are you going to be a part of this family? once we stop recording i might apologize please do it please do it now no yeah yes that was you
are literally like are you gonna be a part of this family are you just gonna sit on your phone
i was like me so when i've had enough of instagram i want everyone else to have oh yeah yeah yeah
like i do it and i do it in the van with carl me and carl used to go on tour do stand-up

I'm like a child
so which you know
it was ridiculous
I didn't
I'd had

I'd had me nap
so I was well rested
I wanted a bit of conversation
but you wanted to sit on your phone
and I was like
what the hell's going on
so
me and Carl
when we'd be in the van if I was finished on my phone I'd put my phone down hell's going on um so me and carl when we when we'd be

hello Rosie and Chris
hope all is well
we're looking forward
to seeing you
live in Leeds
but that has happened
so
it was lovely to see you
hope you enjoyed it
as if the two has done man
finished
holy shit
it was good though wasn't it
fantastic
enjoyed it
thank you everyone for coming
oh shit yeah
sorry
thanks
keep talking over me
I'm too excited
no no it's fine don't worry
I'm fucking well used to it
as we all love
a good embarrassing
medical story
yeah
I thought I'd write in
as I've got one here
that happened to me
during lockdown
please keep me anonymous
always
I'm quite the hypochondriac
so you can probably imagine
how fun lockdown
in which we
were all hiding from some invisible bastard virus was for me yep but little did i know it was another
medical mishap that would end up in the most embarrassing gp call i've ever had
now i'm gonna tell you this and i'm a bit worried because it's one of them things that whenever you
find out something you might end up doing this.
And I don't want you to.
I did this a couple of nights ago.
Yeah?
We were out with a friend of yours.
And they said that they had a stomach ulcer.
And I said I'd had a bad stomach.
And I quickly cross-referenced my symptoms with them and thought I had a stomach ulcer.
Diagnosed himself with a stomach ulcer.
On a night out, which is the best, best, best time to diagnose yourself.
Just before he ate a full margarita pizza.
Yeah.
Fuck's sake.
With garlic sauce.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Which is very much the Gaviscon of the Italian cuisine.
So this is what I live with, right?
And I'm sure there'll be a lot of others that live with this.
So Chris, for months while we're doing the tour,
has been drinking his Huel drinks, right?
Hardly eating anything.
I mentioned it a few,
I said it on the podcast,
didn't I?
You've not been eating great
but you've been looking
after yourself
which is great for you.
Good for you.
Not going over the top.
Yeah.
And you look great for it
and you know,
it's good to be mindful
of what you eat,
I suppose,
when we're getting older.
So,
tour finished.
Chris has gone mad.
Christmas, innit? Chris has gone full Christmas christmas back on the sugar and then um woke up a couple of days with a really bad stomach like
bad stomach pains and indigestion and heartburn and and i kind of said is it because you've just
gone like you know full full on back on it and chris didn't really think that that's what it
was he thought he had a blocked bloody bladder and all this shit right
and then
so this is where your extremes
blocked bowel
not bladder
I thought I had constipation
but higher up
yeah
not at the bum
higher up
that's a thing
is a thing
so
but what makes us laugh about you
is the extremes that you go to
so
we went on a night out
with all our mates
it was mint
everyone was there
and
you were drinking Guinness.
Yeah.
And I was like,
I've never seen you drinking Guinness in my entire life.
Yeah.
Do you even like Guinness?
Yes.
Oh, do you?
Especially with a little splash of blackcurrant in it.
Okay, fair enough.
Why were you drinking Guinness?
Not gassy.
So every single day,
basically the problem came,
and this is probably the most privileged
sort of first world problem
of a diagnosis of getting unwell like you were about to hear so strap yourselves in for this
i had too much champagne on christmas day and i got full of gas
is that what was wrong with you yeah so that's when i fell asleep so i was just basically just
i'm not apart from like the odd lager, which was after the tour,
I didn't drink much this tour.
I didn't go crazy.
I got a bit tipsy a couple of nights,
but it was the gas off the,
and then it just hung on us for days.
So I was like,
right,
I'll drink something that's not gassy.
I went to get wine,
but I didn't fancy the wine.
And I just,
two of the lads were drinking Guinness
and Guinness just looks incredible.
Okay.
When it's in a glass.
I take it back
because I thought you didn't like it. I thought you were just drinking it's in a glass. I take it back because I thought
you didn't like it.
I thought you were
just drinking it
because I thought
you didn't like it.
You're looking at a man
who had six pints
of it that night.
You think I don't like it?
Six pints of Guinness?
Oh,
fucking lovely stuff.
Lovely stuff.
Bit of blackcurrant in there.
Sorry to all the Guinness fans
out there,
but I do have to have
a bit of blackcurrant
and it just takes
that bitterness away.
Bloody lovely man.
Do you like a Sunday dinner?
It's like a pint of Sunday dinner
as one of my mates quoted.
One of my mates said, it's like a pint of Sunday dinner, as one of my mates quoted. One of my mates said,
it's like a pint of Sunday dinner.
He was the guy who was drinking it that night.
But years ago, he said he didn't like it
because it was like a pint of Sunday dinner.
He was drinking it that night.
Madness.
Anyway, don't start doing this, right?
Sorry to get off the subject.
Also, yeah, as a side note as well,
I can't watch Grey's Anatomy,
which you are enjoying.
I can't watch it
because I think I've got all the stuff from it.
Yeah, don't ever watch it
because it's intense.
Not going to. Whenever I was feeling, back to the story. Yeah I think I've got all the stuff from it. Don't ever watch it because it's intense. Not going to.
Whenever I was feeling,
back to the story.
Yeah.
Whenever I was feeling
under the weather
with a sore throat
or a stuffy nose,
I checked my own temperature
just to make sure
everything was all right
and to see if I had come down
with COVID.
So this was during that time.
Right.
How would they check the temperature?
As a busy man
who has no time
for faffing about
with inaccurate thermodynamics readings,
I will only use
the most trustworthy way to get a reading of my body heat.
Yeah.
I shove that little heat reader right up my arse.
There it is.
Yeah.
There it is.
Great.
One person...
You've got a repetitive fucking arse strain injury.
I've taken too many temperatures in.
Basically.
No, it's not that.
One particular day, I was feeling off and went about my ritual, dropping trowel in the
bathroom and popping my trusty thermometer companion
right up there to get a sense of the situation.
I mean, we all pass the time differently in the lockdown.
That is true.
I could see you doing this, though.
No, they are. No, Jen.
Is that the most accurate one?
Yeah, apparently.
It's gone under your armpit or under your tongue.
Not with the same thermometer.
I'd give it a wipe.
I work from home, but even so,
I try to keep my measuring a secret from my fiancé.
Oh, fucking hell, it's not even
just his thermometer.
It's a communion thermometer.
And he's
got it on his arm,
on the regs.
We don't have one of these thermometers, do we?
No, we actually don't.
Because I live with someone like you
who wouldn't give it a wipe
and I'd stick it in my mouth
and I would taste your shit.
I've never stuck a thermometer
in my ass in my life.
Never, ever.
So he's not told his fiancée.
Since I know damn well
I'm going to get a look
if she finds out
how often I measured my temperature
around that time.
Sometimes up to three times a day.
Dude, I don't think it was the day.
Honestly,
swap a thermometer for a finger.
I think you'd just love it.
No, I genuinely believe that he's just trying to... She listens to the podcast too, by the way.
Hi.
And as we know, to get the right temperature,
you have to stick it right up and move it around
and masturbate at the same time.
Oh, stop.
Yeah.
Don't turn it smutty.
He's the one in his house three times a day.
Jesus Christ.
A perfect 37 degrees Celsius popped up on the screen this time.
Wonderful stuff, I thought, and went on with my day.
By the way, to be ill, it's usually over.
When I worked at the nursery,
if the kid's temperature was over 37.5,
they used to have to get a phone call.
Right.
Just to let you know. I think it's different for adults, but yeah. Is it? Yeah. Fair enough. nursery if the kid's temperature was over 37.5 they used to have to get a phone call right let
you know i think it's different for adults but yeah is it yeah fair enough but he's probably
getting hot and flustered he probably gets hot and flustered just at the excitement of getting
ready to holler at the moment i ride back up his ass again for the third third time this day
isn't it horrible when your band's got a temperature of like 39 point bloody whatever
you feel helpless it's horrible or anything when anything at all is wrong with your kid it's awful
yeah as the day continued
I began feeling a bit antsy
and I was getting
quite uncomfortable
around the old brown
back door
as an itching
and burning sensation
began to develop
I decided to sleep on it
thinking it must have been
the hot sauce
I put on my food the day
which had come back
to haunt me
that day sorry
the next day
the burning feeling
had gotten only worse
and I was beginning
to worry as i tend to do in brackets hypochondriac life my mind immediately raced to the worst outcome
and i booked a callback appointment with my gp to put my mind at ease and figure out what was
happening you couldn't you couldn't get an appointment for love and money and if you didn't
have covid they didn't want to know and he's gonna tell him he's got an itchy arse get it
get out as i was waiting to be called back i tried to go about my day and distract myself
but in the back of my mind i couldn't stop worrying as the burning feeling remained
i went to the bathroom washed my hands and as i was looking in the bathroom mirror
above the sink everything clicked into. I always use a bit of
my own spittle to lubricate the
thermometer before I plonk it up there to do
its work. This time, however, I had
forgotten the fact that a rather nasty
cold sore had been forming on
my lip. And as you might know,
cold sores are a form of
herpes.
I had accidentally given myself
anal herpes by spitting on my
with my mangy cold sore lip and putting it up my bum
see that's sometimes that's i can't get around people's logic when it's stuff like that when
it's like oh yeah i'm a hypochondriac,
oh yeah, check me things,
oh, but I'm just going to forget about this cool soul because I'm better than everyone else.
Yeah, yeah.
Just the flow and the logic of like,
I'll just rub this thermometer,
I will just spit on this thermometer
and just honk it up my arse three times a day.
Needless to say,
the call with my doctor was pretty surreal.
With the GP on the other end of the line
trying to keep a straight face
as I told him about the way
I had given my own arse an STD.
That's so bad.
He ended up giving me the solid advice of
might be worth investing in a new thermometer
before bursting out laughing.
And then it just says, blah, blah, blah.
It eventually went away, but it can easily come back as herpes.
P.S. I did end up buying a thermometer for my ears,
but the thing is so inaccurate, it does my head in.
There you go.
I've now given my arsehole an ear infection.
Oh, God.
Give me all soul glue here.
Babadoo, babadoo, babadoo, bah.
Hi, guys.
Listener from day one here.
Just a really quick one.
My friend had a one-night stand years ago,
and the guy suggested that they have a shower together
after they'd done the deed.
And in her drunken state, she agreed.
My friend had some soap and glory,
clean-on-me shower gel on the side of the bath.
And as they are in the shower,
the guy starts rubbing it onto her bosom,
singing, clean on me.
When you're not strong.
I'll be your friend.
I'll help you carry on.
I'm sorry I don't know all the details,
but just thought it might make you laugh
as much as it did me
that's brilliant
clean on me
soap and glory
they're the pink ones
aren't they
yeah
I think I'd have
married him
would you
if you'd have
washed your boobs
yeah you'd have been
out like that
it's kind of something
I would do
weirdly
so I know that wasn't
an ick
but I did
I spotted an ick
the other night
a new ick unlocked for did i spotted an ick the other night i knew ick unlocked
for me um i went to me no no no i am how many ever sort of so now weirdly because we've been
doing this for so long and i've heard so many icks and when we're doing the podcast too i heard so
many icks i sort of see them from the eyes of a woman now so if i see a bloke doing something i
go oh i bet you that would turn someone off okay so i was it i went to our local uh indian takeaway and i was sitting waiting for my food and another guy came in and he was
waiting for his as well and we got them at the same time and as we're walking out i said bye to
the guys and then the the guy who worked there who was letting me out said good night gentlemen
and the bloke behind me said to the guy leaving the curry house night night and it was just
i just went like i went bye and he went good night gentlemen and he went night night and i was like
was he fit no no no but i was like why have you said night night night night it's just and i was
like walking the car and he was walking and there was just a silence between me and him so the guy said bye to both of us we didn't say
bye to each other because we hadn't even spoken to each other why would we but i was just as i
was walking off i was like i don't think you meant to say night night he probably did not
he probably didn't mean to night night night night well it's like when you say
love you to strangers oh you too yeah yeah you're sitting in a bag you too yeah
i always have to say something though when i've done it you to strangers or you too yeah your receipt's in a bag you too yeah he's like
what am I even talking about
I always have to say something
though when I've done it
if I'm at the cashiers
or something
and I say something
I go sorry
I didn't mean to say that
oh I go back
I go back and go
oh bit weird that I said that
there wasn't I
I didn't mean to say that
and they go right
and I go
that was weird
I didn't mean it at all
and they go okay
and I go
you haven't got this I didn't give you, though. And they go, okay. And I go, ah, because you haven't got this.
I didn't give you a receipt.
I went to say bye.
But you just...
They must hear it loads, though.
Robin told me the other day that he,
I think he called the teacher mom or something.
I used to call teacher's dad all the time.
Yeah.
All the time.
I used to style it out, though.
Did you?
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da.
But they never called him. Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da- I pretty much like to keep my job. I work in an office and was feeling uncomfortable down there
to the point where I needed to know what was hurting.
Boy or girl?
A girl.
Okay.
Vagina.
Thank you.
Thank you for clearing that up.
I nipped to the loo and took some photos for better viewing.
Sorry.
What?
Oh, for her to look at.
For her to look at.
Right, okay.
What was wrong down there?
Stuck them in the group chat to get an opinion.
Right, I understand.
Okay.
Just took some photos.
Not for her.
I couldn't get the angle correct,
so I thought I'd try a video.
Oh, God.
I got the video.
Feeling a little embarrassed
after hearing someone enter the toilet
and me basically videoing my flaps,
I flushed the loom.
Left the toilet and went back to my seat.
Oh, I've got a horrible...
I don't want to predict the end of this, but I've got a horrible... I've got a horrible. Oh, I've got a horrible... I don't want to predict the end of this,
but I've got a horrible feeling here.
I've got a horrible feeling.
Let me just...
Can I write it down?
Yeah, go on.
I'm going to write down...
I know it's not a Rose of Mysteries,
but I've just got a theory here.
Go on.
Right.
My phone started to ring.
It was my husband, then my mum.
So I instantly panicked
and thought the kids were ill at school
or something like that.
I called my hubby back for him to tell me in a panicky voice
that the video I took of my lovely yellow boil
on the left flap of my vagina was actually a Facebook Live.
Ah!
I didn't guess that.
I wrote down iCloud.
I thought it was synced to an iPad or something.
Facebook Live. Fuck off.
Turns out I'd recently done a lot of lives
and when my brain went to video in the rush,
I just automatically hit Facebook Live.
Safe to say I was banned from Facebook for a while
and very nearly divorced due to the boil
not sharing my Mary with the world.
Bloody hell.
And why are they getting divorced because of a boil?
You're funny.
That's a bit weird.
She's been playing away. Do you get boils for and you're funny that's a bit weird but anyway she's been playing away
what
do you get boils for that
anyway
that's my worst nightmare
you know
well sometimes
I really panic
because the kids
have got a lovely habit
of just picking my phone up
and they love to look
I don't let them touch mine
Rafe loves taking pictures
and they love to look
at me pictures
but I'm
oh shit myself
I'm like
if they go on Instagram
and just
and then we're in the background
fucking slagging someone off.
Oh, I'm like, just, I don't let them on.
I know you think I'm, I just don't let them touch my phone.
I'll tell you what my fears are about them touching my phone.
Mine's just around.
My fears are, they're going to go on Instagram and they're going to, so they're either going to do something with me bank or bank details or share me email address or personal information with someone just by banging the fucking phone.
They're going to go to Instagram and something's, you now and then so the algorithm on instagram it gives you stuff
you love stuff you love stuff you love stuff you love now and then it gives you something you
fucking hate to get to get you to end oh this is chris is pretending that he doesn't look at
stuff on instagram because there's always random i don't look at stuff no i mean something if they
put something out politically which is like you, quite contentious and the kids accidentally like it
and then people say,
oh,
he's like that,
like,
thing.
Or that they're going to go on Twitter.
I do that all the time,
you know.
So I look at like,
because you're meant to expand your,
I watched that social dilemma
years ago on Netflix.
Yeah.
And you're meant to look at stuff
that makes you uncomfortable
so that you're not constantly getting things
to just sort of like,
yeah.
So you don't end up living in this world,
which I think a lot of people do,
where they've just got their opinion
and they think they're completely right
because they think the world agrees with...
See, echo chamber that I just said.
Yeah, okay, sorry, but all right.
Yeah, no, you're right.
Summed all that up in echo chamber.
Yeah, yeah.
So it's good to look at other stuff,
but I'm always terrified in case I like it.
And I'm like, oh my God,
people are thinking I'm going to agree with this
and I don't.
Yeah.
So anyway, yeah. So that, or they're going to like bash the keyboard and it's going to accidentally say a terrible word I'm always terrified in case I like it and I'm like oh my god people I think I'm gonna agree with this and I don't so anyway yeah
so that
or they're gonna like
bash the keyboard
and it's gonna
accidentally say
a terrible word
and they're gonna
send it out to the world
fucking terrified
constantly
I don't want them
on me phone at all
I know maybe I need
to be a bit stricter
mine just lies around
that's the problem
thank you so much
for listening
to this new year's
edition of
Shag Maradonoid.
Best going forward.
And we are part of the Acast Creator Network.
We are indeed.
Best going forward.
New year, new you.
Keep on learning, guys.
So in that vein, an attic typically constitutes an entire floor of the building,
while a loft only covers a few rooms,
leaving one or more sides open to the lower floor.
Thank you very much.
Please start making new homes or basements
just to keep them happy, all right?
Bye, guys.
See you later.
