Starting point is 00:02:54 big big one this week big big sponsor it's time for this week's lucrative lucrative sponsor this week's sponsor is a brand new government initiative it's the new government's legislation surrounding Valentine's Day.
Starting point is 00:03:08 I don't really know what legislation. Rules. Right. Rules. Thank you for that. Have you not seen the new government's rules on Valentine's Day? No. So from now on, every Valentine's Day, right,

And you have to at least, at least, bay from a card shop holding a heart. Oh, of course. Right? Yeah. And you have to at least, at least, starting from today, at least get wanked off
Starting point is 00:03:30 or fingered or you get fined by your local council. And that's... And that, that's, that's facts. That's, that, they're trying to get money back.

Starting point is 00:04:26 I think you should do nice things for each other all the time rather than just that one day. I believe we've spoke about it before. And I believe, to me, it always just smacks of like, I don't know, I just feel a bit like if I go past the local Italians tonight and there's just like loads of couples sitting there, I just feel like... Well, I was just saying, I think it's a young thing.
Starting point is 00:04:44 Yeah. I think when you're younger, Valentine's Day is exciting. Yeah. And it's saying, I think it's a young thing. Yeah. I think when you're younger, Valentine's Day is exciting. Yeah. And it's like, oh, it's Valentine's Day. And maybe you haven't been going out with someone as long.

Starting point is 00:07:53 you could just see this. And I went in the World Buffet and the Nando's was literally next door. Yes, but the World Buffet might not have Portuguese.

Babadoo, babadoo, babadoo, bah. Jingle! Jingle! Hello and welcome back to this week's episode of Shagged, Married and Annoyed. You know, obviously it is Valentine's Day today.

Starting point is 00:10:18 I'm not doing anything today. I am out on Saturday, though, which I'm looking forward to. And you are out on Friday because do you know folks listening at home I can't have a night out without Chris having a night out at the same time so every time I say
Starting point is 00:10:32 are you in on Saturday because I think I'm going to go out with the girls he then he goes yes I am and then
Starting point is 00:10:37 20 minutes later sometimes even shorter he goes I'm going to go out with the lads on Friday which is fine but why have you got a copy of us?
Starting point is 00:10:46 Get your own social life. Two things. One, it wasn't me. Jordan spoke to me and said, do you want to go out this week? Is that because I'm going out with Jordan's partner? The words that Jordan may have uttered were something along the lines of,
Starting point is 00:11:01 if the lasses are going out, we need to get a night as well. But you don't. I don't understand. I didn't. He did, and I agreed. No, but you're all the same. if the lasses are going out, we need to get a night out as well. But you don't. I don't understand. I didn't. He did and I agreed. No, but you're all the same. So that's what you normally do though. So why can't I just have a night out without you having to have a night out? Why does me having a night out affect you having a night out?
Starting point is 00:11:15 It doesn't. But you know when you say to me I'm going out, I don't then go girls, assemble like on the phone. WhatsApp the lot. Heapp the lot he's out I'm out that's because you've normally already got a few booted in

But then I was very aware that you just, you know, other than if you do get sexy, but we didn't get sexy at this precise time, you just go to sleep. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:26 You just roll over and go to sleep. So I really don't see anything wrong with what we're doing right now. I quite like waking up at night and knowing exactly where they are. I know you've got one of them, I know I've got one of them, and I know they're fine. Yeah. If I wake up and it's just me and you, what are they doing?
Starting point is 00:14:38 What's happened? Has one of them rolled on the other one? Where are they? Has he gone downstairs? I mean, no, no. Okay, right, okay. Didn't want to didn't want to have a fight
Starting point is 00:14:46 with you today but yeah the night that we put them in the bed you just fell straight asleep without actually saying goodnight to me or anything
Starting point is 00:14:53 just fast asleep and the monitor which I'd put on them because Rafe's still only little and I was you know wanting to keep an eye on him you didn't had nothing to do with that
Starting point is 00:15:02 so you just went straight to sleep without saying no but you didn't say who's going to look after the monitor who's going to keep the monitor on the
Starting point is 00:15:09 other side of the bed it was just assumed just assumed that it was me so that's love that about being me love that love that part of parenthood
Starting point is 00:15:15 I thought I would do the following night you can fuck off would you shit honestly I would just to be your man for a day
Starting point is 00:15:23 just to be your man just to do you know what I like no no no I could not for a day, just to be a man, just to... Do you know what I'm like? No, no, no, no, no. I could not have just gone to sleep without saying or discussing the night. The difference is you could, so I would love to be a woman.
Starting point is 00:15:33 I would love to be a woman because I would love to have the fucking gall on myself to have a go at someone for falling asleep. To probably go, right, right, you. Gloves up, you fell asleep, you fucking bastard. I fell asleep. Chris, it's not that. It's not.
Starting point is 00:15:48 I'm not having a go at you for falling asleep. You meant to fall asleep. I'm just having a go at the fact that you can just go to sleep and shut your eyes without any sort of, what's the word? Any sort of responsibility for the kids. Whereas I. The monitor was on the floor. No, it can't, like...
Starting point is 00:16:07 You just didn't even discuss what would happen? Because I fell asleep. Fell. The word is fell. I fell asleep. I could not tell you the last time that I've just fell asleep without any sort of... If me kids weren't...
Starting point is 00:16:22 I've never... Chris, in eight years, I have never just fell asleep without having to set an alarm or check that the kids are okay or make sure that the monitor was on the right volume or plugged in. Like, Chris, I have never, never done that. It was plugged in. It was plugged in.
Starting point is 00:16:41 It was on the right volume. It was just a little bit far away from the bed. Right? I fell. I fell. That's fine. I'm just, can you not agree? Can you not agree? in it was on the right volume it was just a little bit far away from the bed right i fell i fell i fell asleep can you not agree can you not agree i can agree sort of but like that's the thing you're always going about i wish i was a man i wish i was a man i wish i was a woman so i could just fucking start pick a fight with some poor cunt for falling a kip wow okay crazy right on you the neck on you just fall asleep without any sort of like, right, they're in the bed.
Starting point is 00:17:06 What she would do if, right, you have them on then. What she would do if Rafe falls out of bed. Like, I had to put the pillows at the side of the bed to make sure he didn't fall and crack his head open. Must just, all I'm saying is, it just must be nice. That's all I'm saying. All right. But you know, you deal with that stuff. So, he isn't that.
Starting point is 00:17:23 I'm not trying to I'm not I don't want to turn it into a gender thing a man and woman this is me backing down I'm rolling over I'm showing you my belly
Starting point is 00:17:32 right stop Mrs Crazy Pants right I'm sorry I fell asleep shame on me shit look

Starting point is 00:18:05 You can't be both. You would have had to know that the things were there. You would have to know but you want to be in control of everything and then you kick off about being in control
Starting point is 00:18:12 of everything. It's your thing. I don't want to be in control of everything. I just feel like I have to be. Well, you don't. That'd have been fine. He's not going to roll out.

I like to think that there's someone listening. It could be mine, it could be whatever. You're listening going, I agree with her, I agree with him.
Starting point is 00:19:13 Yeah, I have to be the one doing all that. You fall asleep all the time, Terry. So, you know, there is that. We're arguing, but we're fighting cases for people listening here. Fair enough. So there we go. Now listen. Just don't, it really fucks us off
Starting point is 00:19:25 that you just fall asleep without like, that you can't just control. It doesn't happen very often. No, it happens all the time. You can't just control yourself enough to go, all right,
Starting point is 00:19:33 are you going to, I'll, yeah, okay, night. Yeah, but then once I've had that conversation, I might not get to sleep. Once I've had that conversation, I might not get to sleep.

Starting point is 00:20:38 I'm not great with weekends anyway. I don't like just being at a loose end with the kids the entire weekend. It reminds us of the lockdown. It upsets us. So I got up and Robin, the lights wouldn't go on. And I was like,
Starting point is 00:20:49 right, what's going on here? Then I went to see you and you was like, oh God, and everything was off and it was still dark. Right. And I went downstairs and I'm like, when,
Starting point is 00:20:57 okay, when there's a power cut and everything is off in the house, where's the first, this is the difference in us. This is where, this is why, this is what I was trying to get at. When there's a power cut and everything's off in the house and you wake up and everything's off, where's the first this is the difference in us this is where this is why this is what I was trying to get at when there's a power cut
Starting point is 00:21:06 and everything's off in the house and you wake up and everything's off where's the first thing your brain goes to erm realistically check the fuse box
Starting point is 00:21:13 why what's happened what's the cause of this something's tripped right so my cause there's two main causes that mine goes to
Starting point is 00:21:21 ok erm normally it's like a movie someone's had a big pair of clippers and they've cut the thing and they're about to storm in the house. Right. That was the first one.
Starting point is 00:21:30 Not at that time in the morning. They wouldn't. Burglary. Good time to do. Good time to do it. No. Terrible time to do it. Okay.
Starting point is 00:21:35 So you're thinking that it's a bad time to do it and they wouldn't do it at that time. Burglary is usually happen when people are fast asleep between like one and four in the morning. Okay. But so you're saying the time that we had, which was 6 o'clock in the morning, you're saying that's a bad time and it wouldn't happen then? I think so, yeah. Perfect time to do it then?
Starting point is 00:21:51 Why? Because you think it's a bad time and it wouldn't happen then? Right, okay. I don't think burglars are that clever. I don't think you should say that on here. Why? I think someone might come and try and prove you wrong. Leave a note where your telling used to be. Okay, so that's your...
Starting point is 00:22:03 Who's clever now? So that's your catastroph clever now so that's your catastrophizing brain now that I've said so now so there's the first thing my brain went into so there's the first
Starting point is 00:22:10 two things my brain went into the first one was they've cut it like a SWAT team they've cut the power and they're coming in second one was Russia why Russia
Starting point is 00:22:18 bomb there's been a bomb and all the power's gone off and we don't know so this is where your brain goes to before it's tripped before check the fuses
Starting point is 00:22:24 in the garage that's where my brain goes immediately it it's tripped? Before check the fuses in the garage, that's where my brain goes immediately. What? It goes to the worst possible one. The worst possible one immediately and then
Starting point is 00:22:30 I won't be away back from there. This is why it's so exhausting being me. This is why I comp. This is why I don't put weight on. This is why I can
Starting point is 00:22:34 eat what I want. Oh my good God. Mine goes to oh something's happened in the street or the fuse is gone or you know an electrical fault.
Starting point is 00:22:42 Yeah no no mine goes to terror attack or more localised criminal zombie attack no it's not possible I watched a video once
Starting point is 00:22:50 Neil deGrasse Tyson or whatever he's called saying zombies is literally impossible it's not a thing that could ever happen so I'm trying to go downstairs
Starting point is 00:22:58 to check and Rafe's screaming saying he wants to come downstairs with us now I'm not going to be able to fight off a burglar or do anything while I'm holding a child so I need him to stay upstairs you're horizontal still going let him
Starting point is 00:23:08 let him come with you let him come call him come but i don't want to say out loud that i think there's 25 men downstairs but i think there's 25 men downstairs do you know what i mean so i can't say that out loud well both of our children there because i don't want them to grow up like me so i'm going keeping this so that's. And we'll go down and we'll realise it's all the lights are out in the street. The whole street's off. So I calm down slightly.
Starting point is 00:23:29 Then I ring Northern Power Grid and fucking surprise, surprise. Oh, you're the first person to report it, Mr. Ramsey. Of course I'm the first person to report it because I'm a really stupid fucking wanker
Starting point is 00:23:38 up at six o'clock on a Sunday morning because me kids are basically nocturnal. That was so depressing. And then what? She said you have to wait for three people
Starting point is 00:23:50 to report it before they can do anything. You've got to wait for three people to report it. So we had to just sit with candles on. With candles on. And the kids,
Starting point is 00:23:57 we put the kids on their iPads which we never do first thing in the morning and that was horrible because most of the stuff they wanted to go on wouldn't work because you need Wi-Fi. Dad can go on Netflix can go on netflix well first race trying to turn the
Starting point is 00:24:09 telly on won't turn on me it's turned off right ipad i can go on netflix can't make it needs the wi-fi i'm going amazon you can't make it needs a wi-fi now tv don't know how many times i have to tell you this fucking wi-fi's off idiot oh god oh it was horrible well no but honestly but okay right and our children I'm telling you okay but it's not
Starting point is 00:24:29 pleasurable but you held onto that I couldn't let it go the whole day I couldn't let it go and then you're like so when I was little my mum told us
Starting point is 00:24:36 that I used to kick if I couldn't get my own way right and she said I was pretty placid but if I couldn't get my own way I would kick off
Starting point is 00:24:42 all day like this party I wanted to go to my mum said I hung around that all day please please can i go please you know once the time came if the party started i was just like right fair enough once the time came of you going to bed you were like oh yeah i've not been great okay i'm going to bed good night fell straight asleep and i was just sitting there rocking in the corner like i've had to deal with his horrible mood all bastard day i couldn't't shake the mood off.
Starting point is 00:25:06 But also what really annoyed us was Walking Dead and A Quiet Place was the main one I was thinking of. I was trying to go downstairs to check if there was any kind of danger and our kids were just fucking screaming. Just noise. Just noise for no reason.
Starting point is 00:25:20 They would last three fucking seconds. Well then we'd go pretty quick. And we wouldn't have to live through that shit. I don't want to be alive. You three would go. I'd be off. Well, good for you. Good for you that you want...
Starting point is 00:25:29 The one thing I took from Walking Dead, right? Watching all of them series. Loved it. The one thing I thought was, I wish I'd got... I'd want to be one of them fucking zombies. I would not want to live through that. Fair point.
Starting point is 00:25:40 Shit. Kill me. Shoot me at the beginning. Seriously. I don't... I'm not a survivor. Just let me know. What?
Starting point is 00:25:52 Yes. Oh my god. If I get stuck with you doing something like that and you... Imagine. No thank you. Honestly. Listen, shall we lighten the mood? Aye. I've got a little quiz for you, a little game. Oh, what? I came up with a game the other day. It will lighten the mood? I got a little quiz for you, a little game. Oh, what?
Starting point is 00:26:06 I came up with a game the other day. It will lighten the mood. Will it? You ready? Yes. Do some kind of made-up jingle. It's time for a very quick game of... That's Mario. You're doing the Mario theme.
Starting point is 00:26:17 It's time for a very quick game of things you can say at a swimming pool and an orgy. I've got three written down. I just need you to get one of them so things you can say is there a right answer and a wrong answer if you get one that i think's right i'll give you the point you can see at a swimming pool and an orgy all right well listen i've only been to one of them go swimming pools no okay right come on you ready yeah come on then what Goat swim pools. No. Okay. Right. Come on, you ready? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:47 Come on then. What do you think? Oh, I've got to tell you. Wouldn't be a quiz if I was just going to tell you the fucking answers. Oh, I thought I had to choose. I thought it was like an ABC. No, no. You've just got to come up with one.
Starting point is 00:26:55 Right, all right. Let me think. Oh, you've just really sprung this on us. It's okay. We're going to edit the time out if you want. We're going to edit the time out. Don't worry. Okay.
Starting point is 00:27:03 You join us. It's five hours later. I don't. I'm just trying to think oh here she comes there's a glint in her eye yeah yeah are you wet
Starting point is 00:27:13 yet nah you're soaking you're soaking you could say that you're soaking it's quite good alright you're soaking
Starting point is 00:27:21 okay sort of it's implied god that's horrible I'm so sorry the whispering was unnecessary I could say that. That's quite good. All right, you're soaking. Okay, sort of. It's implied. God, that's horrible. I'm so sorry. The whispering was unnecessary. But then again, do that.
Starting point is 00:27:32 I tell you what, we're supposed to be going swimming with Rafe this afternoon. No, I'm not. Do us a favour, just go up to someone in the swimming pool and go, you're soaking. See what happens.
Starting point is 00:27:38 You could say that at an orgy and at swimming. So I've definitely got a point there. Half a point. Absolutely, I'm sorry. You're in the middle of a threesome. Who's telling people? You're soaking.
Starting point is 00:27:46 Who's telling people that they're soaking at the swimming pool? Who's telling people that? You didn't say what are most common phrases at the swimming pool and in orgy.
Starting point is 00:27:56 You said, what can you say at a swimming pool and in orgy? You're soaking. Right. Okay. Well, fine.
Starting point is 00:28:03 Half a point. What about another one? Right. Come on. Jump in. Okay. Jump in. Jump in. There, fine. Half a point. What about another one? Right. Come on. Jump in. Okay. Jump in. Jump in.
Starting point is 00:28:10 All right. I'll give you a point for that. Thank you very much. Very good. Well done. Thank you for playing. Thank you for playing. You've not got any.
Starting point is 00:28:15 Yeah. The answers we were looking for were, the first thing you could have said that had an orgy and it's been pooled was, where do I put me shoes? Oh. I do hope they take the shoes off at orgies. That would be upsetting, imagine. Next one we're looking for was
Starting point is 00:28:34 close your eyes for the big splash. A little bit of fun for the dads there. Awful. Awful. Horrible. A little bit of local radio. Horrible. The final one we're looking for.
Starting point is 00:28:44 Do men enjoy that on a porn? The cum shot. And the gurgling of the semen. Because honestly, it turns my stomach. I can't imagine it being. It absolutely turns my stomach. I can't imagine it being anything. The clean up being anything but embarrassing in real life.
Starting point is 00:28:57 No, but as a man, right? Okay. Is that a sexy thing to witness? I don't know. Just be honest because men are going to be listening there's flinching
Starting point is 00:29:06 isn't there there's a lot of flinching involved what do you mean well it's like they're never up for it it's always like oh god
Starting point is 00:29:12 yeah but then they spit it out of the mouth and I'm like oh god oh Jesus Christ finish your dinner it's just
Starting point is 00:29:19 to me I mean to me that is repulsive but obviously that must be must be sexy must tickle someone's pickle not yours someone's pickle no not really something I've okay I you know hey listen
Starting point is 00:29:32 well I've just checked the gobook website actually and the legislation for the valentine's day it is covered under the legislation so is it great is that a thing that you just want to just keep amongst yourselves men not really actually do find that lush. I don't think... Again, the other... So, so... Yeah. To dive into sexuality here. Yeah. Confidence and someone being comfortable.
Starting point is 00:29:52 So if someone was well up for that, and they were like, yeah, I imagine that would be pretty cool. But... In real life... But spunking all over someone's face who's literally flinching and shutting their eyes and going, not in me eye.
Starting point is 00:30:01 I can't imagine that being anything but fun. No, okay. In real life, I can understand it's quite sexual. I get, I'm not, you know, I'm not a complete prude. I get it, right? But when it's like regurgitating it out of the mouth and that. Yeah, no, no, that's mangy. That's absolutely mangy.
Starting point is 00:30:15 I always, Rosie, you know me, I always think of the clean up. I always think, what's happening on that carpet? I can smell it. What's happening on that carpet? Yeah, gross. Listen, are you ready for the final one we're looking for? Things you can say at the swimming pool and at Norgie. Whose Veruca sock is this?
Starting point is 00:30:30 I think mine were better. Jump in. They were much better than whose Veruca sock. Your sock one was weird. All right, okay. Whose plas does this? Oh, God. I don't know if I enjoyed that quiz.
Starting point is 00:30:43 You weren't really supposed to. It was just dead quick. Okay. Listen, well done. F weren't really supposed to. It was just dead quick. Okay. Listen, well done. Filled a bit of time. No, great. It's always good to be a bit more inventive. Oh, yeah, it's good.
Starting point is 00:30:51 It's particularly good when you shit all over them. No, I'm not shitting on it, I promise you. No, no, no, no, no. Let's do it. Honestly. Right, okay. There's another one. There's another one.
Starting point is 00:30:58 Don't shit all over. Pool orgy. Bang. Yeah. Done. Should be a sign on the wall. I think you should do this every week but with different places I'd be up for that

Starting point is 00:34:19 Great. And they all run upstairs and they jump around in our bedroom for a good solid 10 to 15 minutes. And it's dead canny. They're just boys and they do flips and it's mad, right? You fuckers have broke more of my lamps than I care to actually bring up on the podcast. Stop breaking me lamps. It's not always me. It's not always me. It's not always me. Hence

The one on the right hand side is fully broke. It's absolutely not good Chris. It's basically balancing.
Starting point is 00:35:01 I know. Why do you keep doing it? I'll have a go at it with a super glue this afternoon. But yeah, it's... Right, move them out the way. Maybe a new thing now has to be, before you start, move me lamps out the way. But I like that ambient lighting for the backflips. Well, you're not going to have any ambient lighting
Starting point is 00:35:17 if you keep breaking the fuckers. Please, please, I'm begging you. I love that you do it. And it's such a, it's like a bonding thing. Like literally, I try to come upstairs sometimes and they're like, no, I'm begging you. I love that you do it. And it's such a, it's like a bonding thing. Like literally, I try to come upstairs sometimes and they're like, no, Manny! Which is upsetting at first,
Starting point is 00:35:30 but at the same time, I'm like, fuck you. I don't want to, I don't actually want to come. So I get to sit downstairs by myself. But please, just, it's collateral lamp damage, man. It's really bad. I'll have a word with the lads. I'll see what we can do. Stop chuckinging chucking pillows

Starting point is 00:35:56 have a bath first and then do the play after because then there'll be no end point at least the bath's the end point no there would be
Starting point is 00:36:03 an end point I'm not going to get rid of them like cereal downstairs is the end point oh okay least the bath's the end point. No, there would be an end point. I'm not going to get rid of them. Like cereal downstairs is the end point. Okay, then. Bath first, then we'll go downstairs. I'll try that now. That's not too bad.
Starting point is 00:36:10 Okay. My beef with you this week is you have bought a new pair of slippers. Do you have them on? Which ones? My pink ones? You've got them on now. Yes, I adore these. Horrible.
Starting point is 00:36:24 What? They make me sad. They are the worst, most fucking scrotty looking slippers. You leave them everywhere. And I catch them and they're like piled up. They're these pink. They look like Mr. Blobby's feet if they were furry. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:43 Like furry. They look like you go too close to a full blast radiator and they're looking at Mr. Blobby's feet, if they were furry. Yeah. Like, furry... They look like you... They look like you go too close to a full blast radiator and they'll burst into flames. I mean, I got them... These are from Peacock's downtown. They're just chippy ones. No, no, no, no, I can tell.
Starting point is 00:36:55 No, I can tell. I can tell they're chippy ones. They're dead comfy. You leave them everywhere. You leave them all over the place. Like, they are... Just try and explain to people what they're like. They're like they're like

Starting point is 00:39:16 Listen in episode 255 when you talk about kids going in uniform on mufti days at school Mufti day Aha Reminded me of a story
Starting point is 00:39:24 Mufti day is a southern thing isn't it for a non-uniform day okay couldn't we also say non-uniform could they say mufti it's a thing it's a massive mufti days we've talked about before years ago yeah years ago we're talking about it's a huge a lot of people in this country call it mufti day okay yeah because you know remember when we did it was it was a time ago. We were literally in our first house. It was when we first started the podcast and we were like, Muff, did you? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:48 Yeah. Okay. I apologise. It's like talking about backers. People call them craggies and that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Chris, we're all the same, but we're all very different, you know.
Starting point is 00:39:59 We're all very different. Yeah, very good. Yeah. When my sister was at school, they had a Tudor day, where everyone was asked to dress up. Okay. The day would be spent talking about that historical period
Starting point is 00:40:11 and doing activities from that time. Correct. Teachers and students all dressed up in long gowns with headdresses or puffy trousers and jackets for the boys. Happy days. God, this made me laugh so much. Okay. For some unknown reason, when she got to school, so was her sister,
Starting point is 00:40:28 when she got to school, a boy in her class was dressed up as Austin Powers, complete with the false teeth. They can only have been about 10 years old, which makes it even more strange that he was Austin Powers. We still talk about it today and have a giggle. Why was he dressed... Why is he Austin Powers? Do you think, though, that their parents have gone,
Starting point is 00:40:55 well, it's a ruffled shirt? I like the cravatty kind of thing. Do you think they've thought that that's a Tudor costume, where actually it's Austin Powers? That's so good. But the teeth as well. I mean, they did have manky teeth back in the day, so I don't know.
Starting point is 00:41:06 Yeah. I just thought that was beautiful. I can't now, I cannot watch or look at or think of Austin Powers without thinking of when I was doing Strictly and we did Movie Week. And Emma Barton was paired with the wonderful Anton Dirk. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:24 And he was Austin Powers. And he was Austin Powers. And he was Austin Powers. Yeah. And he was standing... Have you ever told this story? I don't think I've ever told it. But he was... I mean, it was on the telly.
Starting point is 00:41:32 It was on the telly. Yeah, and he was standing in front of the judges after he'd done his dance. And Craig was ripping him apart for the judges and said, I can't wait for you to get that costume off and take them horrible false teeth out. And he didn't have any false teeth in.

Starting point is 00:42:45 Many years back when I was in the Navy, I served with a guy nicknamed Dorby. Oh, God. Don't be fooled by the name as he was a very good engineer and really quite clever.
Starting point is 00:42:54 Great. However, he was gifted the nickname Dorby for a reason. Whenever he had a few beers in him, there was very little he wouldn't do. One of them.
Starting point is 00:43:02 Right. Just one of them blokes who would just... Why Dorby? I know you, Mia. Deny, just because... Just dare them to do anything. Well, again, it's like... It's one of my main fears for the kids.
Starting point is 00:43:12 Just doing something... Like, doing something fucking stupid. I've done stupid stuff, you know, back in the day. But, you know, just the ones who get a bit pissed and do... And it's always like, oh, blokes, you know, trying to jump across balconies on holiday or something terrible. terrifies the shit out of me because we are me and you are professional show-offs we are this is what this is this is come and listen to us we think we're funny as fuck that's what comedy is and i feel like our kids have got it in them to be you
Starting point is 00:43:39 know look at me look at me and oh one of my worst night and also like whenever you watch you being framed and stuff like that, it's always someone trying to do something funny or cool and fucking themselves up. Well, sadly that Robin is absolutely that. 100%.
Starting point is 00:43:51 Yeah. 100%. That's the one we've got to worry about. Rafe, I don't think Rafe's too bad, but Robin is that kid. Yeah, 100%.
Starting point is 00:43:58 Look at me, I'll eat this cockroach. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Anyway. Right.
Starting point is 00:44:03 His bog standard entry level shenanigans while ashore was to go into a pub, order a pint, drink half, then go around all the tables and tip the ashtrays into the remaining pint and down it. That was his bog standard? That was his... That was his level entry level. That was Tuesday night?
Starting point is 00:44:16 Sorry, yeah. Oh, ashtray? I know. And drink the ash? Yeah. Oh, for fuck's sake. Why? No problem for how adobe it is.
Starting point is 00:44:24 Why is he called adorby? Is it going to be explained? No, not really. So he's clever. He's not stupid and he's clever, but they call him adorby because he does weird stunts. He just does stupid stuff. What would you have called him instead?
Starting point is 00:44:36 What other one are the dwarves? Fucking Evel Knievel. Or fucking anything but adorby. I don't know what Evel Knievel is. Sorry? Who is Evel Knievel? Are you serious? You don't know what what Evil Knievel is. Sorry? Who is Evil Knievel? Are you serious? You don't know what
Starting point is 00:44:48 Evil Knievel is? Honestly? I've said it loads in my life but it's one of them things where if I was on a quiz show and they went who is Evil Knievel?
Starting point is 00:44:57 I would look stupid because I don't know. Who is Evil Knievel? There was a person who used to he used to jump start he was a motorbike stunt guy. Dressed a bit like Elvis.
Starting point is 00:45:07 Right. There's a version of him in Toy Story. Yes. Oh, we might have talked about this, you know. We haven't. I did not know that you didn't know who Evil Knievel was. Okay, who's the other one then? Who was the skier?
Starting point is 00:45:19 The famous skier. Eddie the Eagle Edwards. Right. He was real. He was British. So Evil Knievel wasn't real? Yeah. He was real. He was British. So Evel Knievel wasn't real? Yeah. He was real.
Starting point is 00:45:27 What did he do again? Used to jump things on a motorbike. Right. So that's Evel Knievel. Yeah. Fuck, mate. You've done it again. No, man.
Starting point is 00:45:34 You've done it again. You question some things so much that you get me questioning my own reality. All right, okay. I'd just like to know. I just think, you know, I'm getting to a point in my life where I think, Rosie,
Starting point is 00:45:43 don't just pretend you know things. Actually, find out. You know what it is? Evil Kermit came up there a bit weird. Evil Kenevil, born October 17th, Minnesota, United States. Died 30th November 2007, 69 years old. Rest in peace. Robert Craig
Starting point is 00:45:58 Kenevil, known professionally as Evil Kenevil, was an American stunt performer and entertainer. Yeah, so he would jump. So anyone who was a bit of a devil, you call them Evil Knievel, was an American stunt performer and entertainer. Yeah, so he would jump. So anyone who was a bit of a devil, you call them Evil Knievel? Yeah. Really famous saying that, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:46:12 I mean, he's full on... That's mad. Yeah, he's full on welded into popular culture. Okay, great. Well, listen, I know now, and I'm glad. Look, if nothing came from this podcast, at least you now know who Evil Knievel is. And he dressed a bit like Elvis.
Starting point is 00:46:25 Yes. And that's on Toy Story 4. There's a guy who's a bit like you. Great. Great. Okay. Basically, don't call someone who does a load of stunts. I suppose Dobby does mean stupid.
Starting point is 00:46:36 Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just annoying. Anyway. Go on then. At sea, he had to improvise. Once it was so rough, half the ship's company was throwing up in the toilets on board and it was grim.
Starting point is 00:46:47 No, no, no. I'll tell you it was horrible. I'm not having it. Tiled floor, urinals and toilets overflowing because of blockage. Vomit sloshing back and forth about six inches deep. Oh no. Horrendous. A few of us were having a drinking session down in the mess deck, including Dobie.
Starting point is 00:47:02 I made my way to the toilets combat boots on so the vomit piss and turd soup wouldn't slosh over my feet this is awful by the way like i would just piss overboard i wouldn't be on the drink i wouldn't be on the drink i wouldn't be like oh it's really rough all the toilets are blocked you want to get pissed absolutely not i'm going to bed oh yeah just finished i timed it so the human fluid soup went one way and i jumped the other way out of the toilet door. God almighty. Dopey and another guy were on their way in for a piss
Starting point is 00:47:30 when the other sailor said to Dopey, I'll bet you a few free cans you won't take a gulp of that. Go and fuck off. Pointing to the liquid biohazard sloshing back and forth like the tide. Of course you all know what happened next and to this day the image is burned into my brain. Oh, no. Yes.
Starting point is 00:47:48 Dopey waited for the human slop to run to the back end of the toilets, leaped in, got on his hands and knees, Oh, my God. cheek to the tiles and mouth wide open, and waited. Whoosh. The spew, pee, and logs of half the ship's company
Starting point is 00:48:04 went straight into his mouth I could I could be sick here although I do have to say I thought they were going to say
Starting point is 00:48:12 he went and got a cup the fact that he waited for it to go to one end he got on the floor and put his cheek on the deck and opened it and waited he's a showman
Starting point is 00:48:19 I will give him that he's a god damn showman he's a fucking he's a fucking performer take dopey out of the way I would not call him that. I had a lot of words on my tongue. This is the greatest show. And there's poo and wee and the sick and piss.
Starting point is 00:48:32 Oh, this is the greatest show. Whoa. Ladies and gents, this is the moment you've waited for. Oh. The sea is rough and I've got my cheek on the floor. Oh, the sea is rough and I've got my cheek on the floor. Oh.
Starting point is 00:48:48 Piss in my mouth. Vom in my mouth. Is that shit or is it? A twix. Should have left it at mine. Just so you know, should have left it at mine. Oh, my. Yeah, sorry.
Starting point is 00:49:02 I did. I ruined it. Anyway, right. Okay. So he's got his hands in there. He's the dirty, dirty, dirty bastard. You could die doing stuff like this. Yeah, oh God.
Starting point is 00:49:10 He proudly stood up, turned around with his mouth still open to show us his catch and then... And then gulped it down. Swallowed it. He didn't even spit it out, he swallowed it. Get that man in jail.
Starting point is 00:49:24 He didn't bat an eyelid. Wouldn't get away with antics like that these days. Oh yeah, you get reported and kicked off the ship for that. I tell you what, I bet he never gets a cold. Holy shit. I bet he never gets a cold. Oh my God, I bet he's got ulcers all over. Nah, it'll be the opposite.
Starting point is 00:49:38 Really? People like that, man. His immune system will be like a fucking, like a fortress. And he will die he will outlive everyone listening to this podcast they always do
Starting point is 00:49:49 it's always the case my god what's oh you're 125 years old what's the secret to success oh well just whatever someone told us
Starting point is 00:49:56 to like drink some shit off the floor just drank it yeah happy days honestly there's gotta be some there's gotta be something some sort of fetish thing
Starting point is 00:50:03 they either die doing something stupid, young, or they outlive every fucker. It's always the case. Why would you do that though? What would make you do that? That's honestly,
Starting point is 00:50:13 the fact that it's like sloshing, oh my God. But do you think there is something, so something to be said about, you know how we go on stage and like, we. Oh yeah, that was his Wembley.
Starting point is 00:50:22 Yeah. Yeah, yeah. So we. We'll still talk about that. We can actually see what real adrenaline feels like like we know that feeling yeah and it is lush it's mint right i mean it's it's absolutely terrifying at the same time i don't know if i'm a huge lover of adrenaline but
Starting point is 00:50:36 you know it's ages it is yeah massively ages here yeah that's another thing yeah rosie how come you look loads older than your sister oh because I just get really fucking stressed for three hours and then I've got to come down in my frown lines anyway yeah maybe that
Starting point is 00:50:52 is Wembley that is his that was his O2 I don't know maybe it's his Edinburgh Playhouse wow
Starting point is 00:51:01 what what do you mean because he's just in the box there's only three people there. Oh, okay. So you think that's... It's not O2.
Starting point is 00:51:08 You think he's done better than that? I think when he goes round the pub and they're all there, that is O2. Oh, okay. Yeah, that's a big one. Right. Oh, God.
Starting point is 00:51:16 Palladium. Maybe this is his Palladium. If we stick at London-based, this is his Palladium, which is bloody wonderful. Prestigious venue. Well done, him. Absolutely, yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:27 Hi, Chris and Rosie. A recent episode when you're talking about the bloke at work that brought in porn sparked an old memory of an incident back in my much younger days fyi before you read on i'm not a pervert i know most perverts probably say that but i'm actually really vanilla i think you're a pervert great point literally i was just about to say that um the porn story and works really hit hit a hit a spark with a few it has hasn't it well i think because now right our children are never gonna have porn stories because porn is so accessible but back in the day it was like really yeah couldn't i mean as a i don't know i think it's different for lads and i'm not I really hate to be the gender thing but girls
Starting point is 00:52:07 I didn't watch porn or have any sort of porn until a lot later in life yeah it just didn't exist in my life like you know I think I found
Starting point is 00:52:15 my younger brother's porn before I even had any oh yeah I mean like that was a bad day by the way oh Jesus Christ where did you find it
Starting point is 00:52:23 oh in his room oh god I know sorry kev video magazine it was a cd rom it was a bit later on tell how old you are without telling my old well my poem was on cd rom cd rom because he had the computer in his room i don't think i've ever heard anyone i don't think i've ever said it i don't think i've ever heard anyone before I don't think I've ever heard anyone say a CD-ROM in a sense why? I've just done the way you've said why didn't you just say it was on a CD?
Starting point is 00:52:48 because it wasn't like a listening CD it was a PC CD now that's what I call the sound of porn a new CD would have meant computer
Starting point is 00:52:56 I was just like you know some people have like Wales song he just had like balls slapping off arses and people groaning like oh don't
Starting point is 00:53:03 it was horrible that was a really horrible sad time in my life. Hey, we'll find our kids one day. Well, no, we won't find our kids one day because it'll be on the phone. That's what I'm saying, yeah. Yeah. You know, but...
Starting point is 00:53:14 They'll have to come off the fucking Wi-Fi to get it because there'll be a blocker on this Wi-Fi. Yes. I'll tell you that right now. Yes, yes. Right. Rewind to the late 1980s. I'm really sorry.
Starting point is 00:53:24 I don't know if Kev knows that I've ever seen that porn. Well. Or that I found. I don't think I ever talked about it. You do now. No, he does. Eh? I told my mum.
Starting point is 00:53:33 Of course. You fucking grass. I told my mum. I did. You told your mum. I told my mum. Wow. My kid didn't live there.
Starting point is 00:53:40 Kate was older. I told mum. Yeah. And I don't even. I don't know if he got. Well, I don't think he got wrong because it was older. I told mum. Yeah. And I don't even, I don't know if he got, well, I don't think he got wrong because it was like.
Starting point is 00:53:47 It is what it is. You're a disgrace. I told my mum. You're a disgrace. And you know what's really more embarrassing? What? I was absolutely
Starting point is 00:53:57 of sexual age when I told my brother if I haven't born. Isn't that bad? That sounds like something you would do. Yeah. If you caught you
Starting point is 00:54:04 on the wrong day, it sounds like you would definitely do that. Yeah. Yeah? That sounds like something you would do. Yeah. If you caught you on the wrong day, it sounds like something you would definitely do that. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well, you're disgusting. Yeah. Watching videos of your CD-ROM. Well, you were your CD-ROM. Eh? Eh? CD
Starting point is 00:54:18 schlong. Eh? Eh? Oh. God love him. Right. Rewind to the late 1980s. Christ. Me and my hubby had been married a couple of years and had recently had our first baby. Congratulations.
Starting point is 00:54:32 One day, he comes home from walking the dog with a video cassette with no label. Okay. I immediately think it's one of those films. He's got off the pervy bloke at work. Yeah. But no. The story my husband tells me is that as he was walking along the footpath,
Starting point is 00:54:48 a car goes past and a dog sitting in the passenger seat is holding a video cassette in his mouth. Oh, this sounds like the most elaborate lie ever. No. Which the dog then tossed out of the open window. Wow. Hubby then picks it up, expecting the driver to turn around and come back for it. He must have noticed the dog did it.
Starting point is 00:55:12 It's only a little village, not much traffic. But the car doesn't come back. So he brought it home and wonders what's on it. Oh God. I was immediately suspicious. Oh yeah, you reckon. Great lie. It's porn from work again, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:55:26 Right. Blah de blah. No, he says, it really happened. He goes on to describe the make, model and colour of the car. An unusual blend, not seen one before or since. And even the type of dog it was, an English bull terrier. He's so specific, but I still think it's a lie. Just doesn't want to admit it's some film.
Starting point is 00:55:44 Gleams all that from the car just whizzing past. Yeah. Naturally, we put the tape on later when the baby had gone to bed. Of course you do. Yes, it's porn. Right. But not any old porn. Oh, God.
Starting point is 00:55:55 The word, excuse the spelling, I can't really recall. So this word fills up the screen at the beginning, right? Right. Fish ten fucking. Right. So this word fills up the screen at the beginning, right? FISH TEN FUCKEN. FISH F-I-S-H T-E-N F-U-K-E-N. Right? Right. I think it might be German.
Starting point is 00:56:15 I imagine most VHS porn knocking around in the late 80s was German. Right. That's what's on there. Lots of fucken with FISCHTS. What? Horrific. Oh, FISCHTS. FISCHTS. I thought you with fished. What? Horrific. Oh, fished. I thought you meant fish.
Starting point is 00:56:28 Not fish, no. Okay. Fished. Okay. In brackets, they've put lots. And we obviously kept watching. Kept watching at home. You probably would, wouldn't you?
Starting point is 00:56:38 Yeah. I was still a bit cross with him for lying and slightly disgusted that either he's asked for that from the bloke at work or that bloke thinks that's the sort of pull my husband goes for. A few weeks go by and I am now walking through the village when I see that exact car go past. Go and piss off.
Starting point is 00:56:54 Same make and model and colour. And who's sitting in the passenger seat? Yep, an English bull terrier. He didn't throw a videotape out this time, but at least I knew my husband was telling the truth. I can't. No. That's ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:57:11 Apparently so. Wow. And it says at the end, which I love, we have used the word fished and fucking as an exclamation ever since. Oh, that's good. I like that. Oh, fished and fucking.
Starting point is 00:57:22 Aye. So this person got the dog to throw out their own pawn no maybe the dog just picked it up and threw it out by accident and he's never known I'd love to meet this person
Starting point is 00:57:33 what was going on your dog so they either got the dog to throw it out or they get in the car and go got some new pawn tonight hold that
Starting point is 00:57:41 and the dog just holds it in its mouth for both of you you might like this too Trevor weird that it's called his dog trevor um yeah that's insane nice wow love that love it story love it what a what a strange thing to find like german fist and pawn dropped out of a moving car by a dog. By a double terrier, yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:08 I believe it. I believe it. I've got more questions than it's one of them ones where I've now got more questions than when the story started, which is a bit upsetting. There was a noise a little bit that. Got a bit of a headache now. So it was the 80s, man. Oh. Weirdly, that answers quite a few of them.
Starting point is 00:58:23 Babadoo babadoo babadoo bah. Hi, Chris and Rosie. Please keep me anonymous. My husband and I have been together seven years, married one. He's an avid runner and loves to spend money, so he has all the latest gear, fancy trainers, etc. What? Because he loves to spend money.
Starting point is 00:58:39 He loves to spend money, so he's got all the latest gear, fancy trainers, running running hat running gloves this is you this is literally you yeah Chris has had his ice tub for a week but now that ice tub
Starting point is 00:58:51 is redundant because he's bought another one that was a lot of money yeah but I'm not stanging off too much because I've actually been in a few times
Starting point is 00:58:57 I couldn't the other one I had my fucking knees around my chin man I couldn't I couldn't fit in I've told my kid you can have it by the way
Starting point is 00:59:03 I've already given it away who to? Gardner oh tell her she can fuck off oh sorry kid sorry is Simon having it?
Starting point is 00:59:14 Simon's having it why is he wanting to do it? tell him about it he said he really fancies it I said look I've got one going begging if you want it amazing
Starting point is 00:59:19 there you go recently this is the person's husband recently he bought a new fitness watch to track everything he does and I mean everything the ick is the the person's husband recently he bought a new fitness watch to track everything he does and i mean everything okay the ick is not the fact he regularly discusses the amount and level of sleep he has had or how long his foot is in contact with the floor during a run but rather yeah that's you yeah this is you but rather that there was nothing wrong with his old fitness watch
Starting point is 00:59:42 and so he now wears both of them in order to get more health data on himself. Jesus. Oh, Jesus Christ. He wears his old one around his ankle. Like a fucking tag.
Starting point is 00:59:56 Like an Aspord tag. Suit, trousers, long socks, smart shoes and a fitness watch around his ankle as if he's just got out of jail. What a bellend.
Starting point is 01:00:04 Definite ick. Wait till he finds out about the rings. Oh, what? Fitness rings. No. Yeah, yeah. Really?
Starting point is 01:00:11 Much less sort of, so for instance, if you're doing like jiu-jitsu or you're doing MMA or you're doing something like more of a contact sport you can't have a watch on, fitness rings.
Starting point is 01:00:22 I don't know if you can get in this country yet but you can definitely get them in America and you can get them imported over ring goes on they look quite cool
Starting point is 01:00:27 black like a black ring I think multiple colours are available tracks everything but while you're exercising as well do you need to know that much don't get me wrong I would get obsessed with the sleep
Starting point is 01:00:39 I'd get obsessed with the sleep I'd wake up thinking I've had a good night's kip and I'd check me out but it would go you only had like four hours of full sleep and I'm wake up thinking I've had a good night's kip and I'd check me out but it would go you only had like four hours of full sleep and I'd be like
Starting point is 01:00:47 oh god I'm tired I can't oh god please don't ever please don't I can't I do get obsessed with stuff can we promise for our marriage
Starting point is 01:00:53 can you not ever get into that because you've managed to avoid that for now yeah no it's the same reason I don't have a smart meter because we'd be walking around in the dark
Starting point is 01:01:01 you wouldn't be allowed anything on I don't think you need to know I think it's too much information I know to turn if I'm not in a fucking
