we've just been uh uncle boris has been on the news again and done a big shit directly into our eyes.
So, yeah.
But, I mean, we talked about it last week,
about the North East being on a lockdown,
and we are now on, we're on another lockdown.
Fully blown lockdown.
But, but listen, silver lining, right?
We like winning.
Everybody likes winning.

Our hometown, where we live, where we've been.
Yeah.
Where we've grown up, whatever.
Yeah.
We are currently second place on the leaderboard.
Right.
Of the highest number of coronavirus cases.
Oh, God.
I want to win.
So.
What do we do?
Just keep shagging.
Everyone listening.
Everyone listening.
Town Square tonight.
Spitting each other's mouth party. I square tonight spitting each other's mouth party
spitting each other's
mouth party
go
nine o'clock tonight
it doesn't matter
I haven't put
no but seriously
you can't slag us off
for that because
I don't know what day
you listen to this
so that's just a joke
but yeah
let's just stop
being so bloody nice
us northerners
we kind of keep
flipping hands
over each other
bloody people shaking
hands
bloody licking
each other's tongues
and that
it's too much
that bloke might be back in I told you didn't about when my dad worked in the pit and if they got anything on the and hands off each other. Bloody people shaking hands, bloody licking each other's tongues and that. It's too much.
That bloke might be back in.
I told you didn't I, but when my dad worked in the pit
and if they got anything in the shipyard,
sorry,
and if they got something in their eye,
they went to some guy's little hut
and he licked it out of their eye
with the back of his tongue.
Have you ever mentioned this on here?
I think I might have.
You must have.
I've mentioned it in the intro now
because my head's all over the fucking place.
You told me that story once
and I was horrified.
So my dad worked at the shipyards
and whenever they got
something in their eye
they would go to see a guy
his name was Geordie
or Jackie or something
and they'd go and see him
and he'd be in the workshop
and he'd be like
I've got something in my eye
and he would hold their eye open
and he would lick their eyeball
with the underside
of his tongue though
because the underside
is like softer.
Smoother.
I'm sorry but that
what is your job?
Oh I lick all the lads eyeballs.
I'll be honest with you
I think this was before
health and safety
I think it might have been
how old's your dad
370
oh my word
but what I'm saying is
I think the reason
we are so high
is because I think
he's back
I think he's back
on the scene
is he back licking
yeah yeah
right
I think he also
with the rough side
of his tongue
he can get a dislodged
contact lens out as well
wow
wow
it is hay fever season

further it's time for this week's lucrative lucrative sponsor i didn't know if you'd be
doing a lucrative sponsor because i know today's been a really rough day for you can i tell them
money never sleeps can i tell them all about today tell them about today so today so i say today we
are actually recording the podcast at night time that's night time Robin's in bed Robin's in bed
because Chris
didn't
didn't do well
today
no
after the announcement
last night
so
we didn't get to do the podcast
because you were
utterly miserable
it's not that the announcement
affected me in any way
because we're already
on a local lockdown
so basically
the rest of the country
who got that announcement
they
on their fucking holidays
compared to us
because we're
they still got rule of six
and we're not allowed
anywhere around
it's just that fucking
it's just like
the Hunger Games
it's that thing
of everyone gather
around a big screen
and look at the
big man's face
to hear what bit
of your life's getting
fucking
fucking bummed out
of existence today
it's the uncertainty
isn't it
no it's not even
the uncertainty
it's the
it's like
no it's like
and everyone
march to the telly at 8 o'clock
Boris comes on and tells us how
he's going to shit all over
it's just crazy, I know he's not shitting all over
I know it's to save, it's a weird thing
because some people are fearing for their lives
literally fearing for their lives
some people are fearing for their livelihood
and I'm just fucking miserable because people are grassing on each other
and people are just being dickheads
and people are so angry
and it's just the vibe
it's giving off
that's upsetting me
but money never sleeps
and it's time for
this week's lucrative sponsor
right
this week's lucrative
lucrative sponsor is
yes
go out to the pubs
whoa you went to the pubs
we're shutting the pubs
great
thank you
yeah
I think that's how it went
actually
exactly how it went
the government
get yourself to the pub
hey we'll pay half your bill
go on get yourself out
on a Wednesday
treat yourself
whoa
you went out
with other people
on a Wednesday
not just by yourself
shut that fucking pub
right now
madness
blaming all the youngins
fucking madness
that's what I'm fuming at
blaming all the youngins
blaming all the youngins
like honestly
you told them to go out
you did tell them to go out.
You did tell them to go out.
You tell them, go on, go out, have fun.
And they did it, like I would have done when I was their age.
But, you know, anyway, we've moaned enough.
We need to stop because this is bad.
The jingle is going to cleanse us all.
And we're going to start with our normal patter.
But we'd just like to be honest with you guys.
And we'd like to let you know when we've had... I went back to fucking bed today.
Yeah, I know you did.
We were supposed to record the podcast
and I went back to bed.
I texted my producer, I said,
is it okay if I send you the files tonight?
Went to bed for an hour and a half during the day.
I think you needed it.
Yeah.
Didn't make me feel any better though.
No, it never does annoy me.
I looked at the clock, I woke up,
I was like, time to get up, a new day, a new me.
And I came downstairs and I was like,
I want to go back to bed.
Fucking sick.
But I'm having a wine.
But listen, yeah, you have your wine, you selfish little shit.
You're selfish.
I miss you.
I want you to drink with us.
It's upsetting.
And we are going to take you away from all of this bullshit for an hour or so.
Come on.
I've got loads of good stories.
Play the soul cleansing.
Happy, happy jingle.
We had a fight about the jingle.
Jingle.
We couldn't settle on a jingle, jingle.
So this is the jingle, jingle. We hope you like the jingle, jingle.
Babadoo, babadoo, babadoo, bah!
Jingle!
Hello and welcome back to this week's episode of Shack, Mary and a Night.
Shack, Mary and a Night.
Hope you're all well.
We've moaned enough, so let's just crack on.
We have.
My hands are hurting.
Why?
Because I'm a manual labourer now.
Manual labourer.
Oh God, you put one wardrobe together.
I beg your pardon.
It was a corner wardrobe, which is essentially a wardrobe and a half,
then it was two other wardrobes on top of that.
That's three and a half wardrobes.
Is that what's wrong with you?
Is that why you're so exhausted?
Because you've actually done a little bit of manual labour.
And last night, I cut my hand with a screwdriver,
and I hurt both my thumbnails.
I've hurt both my thumbnails.
I know.
Do you know that?
Well, just wait until my beef section.
You're going to enjoy that.
They were both bleeding,
and then I put drawers on Robin's cupboard,
and then I moved all my clothes from one room to the other room.
Now, guys, guys, me and Rosie share a dressing room now
us girls getting ready
for our nights out
just chatting
what nights out Chris
we're not allowed
to see any of that
in the front room
we sometimes go for
our nights out
in the front room
or sometimes in the orangery
it's just the best time ever
we do
turn the music on
we use our hair
we use our
hairbrushes
as microphones
and we're singing
and we'll have a right laugh
don't we
and talk about boys and that.
Don't, because you're making us sad
because I actually really like that part of a night.
Yeah.
Getting ready with your mate in your room.
I still do it now at 33.
Well, weirdly.
34.
Shit.
Oh, you're 34.
Oh, I'm 34?
Oh, shit.
I've referred to myself as 33 today.
That's really sad.
You lying little shitbag that you are.
Oh, God.
34.
Just really depressing because I watch UFC all the time.
The amount of times they're like, this guy's a veteran because I watch UFC all the time the amount of times
they're like
this guy's a veteran
he's been in the UFC
for years
and he's like 33
and I'm like
oh fuck my life
and then the new guys
coming in
are literally
like there's children
there's like 19 year olds
like 18 year olds
coming in the UFC
and I'm like
how
how is this happening
because they don't
last very long
in UFC years
but literally
honestly
they're just I'm like I'd be out on my bike and he'd be like,
is your bike?
And I'd be like, there's my bike.
Because there's nothing I can do.
Are you not looking forward to getting older?
It doesn't really bother us.
I know I'm joking for the podcast now, but I've got friends who are like,
oh, I'm a year older.
And I just, I don't really care.
I quite like being a bit older.
Yeah?
You get away with more stuff, I think.
What do you mean?
What, like shitting your pants in that?
No, not that far.
Being accidentally racist at Christmas.
Terrible stuff like that.
Oh, she's 34.
You know, that's actually,
it's not an excuse to say 74,
but 34 is, no, no
get her out of me house. Totally not allowed.
So
it's not queues from the pews just yet
but I got a very interesting letter
email from
somebody that I just wanted to quickly
Oh you are getting old.
I'm really old. It was a letter
that came through the internet. I got a
telegram from me pen pal. So a letter that came through the internet. I got a telegram from my pen pal.
So I got a letter through the internet from somebody.
A letter through the internet, but it rejected.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Where the nut, oh.
It says, hi Rosie, hi Chris.
I have a question about the way you speak.
Maybe I only know this because I'm not a native English speaker.
Ah, okay.
Okay, it's completely normal for everyone else.
And I was like all
right okay well the geordie accent for one is quite hard to understand and and this person's
wrote in perfect english so i am always impressed by that when somebody who's not english so already
they've trumped her right well i i do not always find that when you're like at a restaurant or
something on holiday or someone holiday and someone's like with a very slight accent they're
like oh no i am sorry my english is is not that perfect and you go
are you saying that to fucking kick me in the dick because your english makes my spanish look
like i've never fucking spoke in my life because the only word i know is hello and that was very
your english makes my spanish look like a fucking cave painting yes yes the satan i'm telling you
the satan purpose you know they go i'm sorry my
english is not that good and in their head they're going you're lazy english pig because you only
know one language this is my fifth i know how stupid you are and fair play at them i'll let
them have that it's so true um so this person has carried on so i thought oh that's fair enough i
didn't expect this though okay okay so when i
first started listening to your podcast you had already announced the pregnancy so i assumed it
was some weird habit of rosie's to keep reminding everyone she is pregnant this is this is possibly
to get more sympathy or whatever who's this but then i noticed ch Chris does it too. So I'm just a bit confused because that made me think,
so hang on, when you tell people you're pregnant,
are you meant to just tell them you're pregnant
and then never mention it again?
I'd be up for that.
For all you do.
I'd 100% be up for that.
This person, is this my soulmate?
Is this my Wayne Linnigan?
May well be.
I found my Wayne.
So I was going to talk just then about how today I was watching something.
I was watching a video on YouTube about a man making noodles.
And he lifted a pot and the pot was really heavy.
And honestly, felt a little bit jealous.
Because at the minute, I'm really missing carrying heavy things.
Because you're not allowed when you're pregnant.
You're missing carrying heavy things.
Said no one ever, apart from possibly Arnold Schwarzenegger in his prime when he might have been injured. You're missing carrying heavy things. Said no one ever
apart from possibly Arnold Schwarzenegger
in his prime
when he might have been injured.
Well, honestly,
I'm not being funny.
I'm missing carrying heavy things.
I think it's because
of everything that's going on
at the minute.
There's a lot of restrictions and stuff.
And I'm just getting told
I can't do a lot of things right now.
I'm the same.
And lifting heavy things
is really,
I'm struggling with it
because I just want to get shit done.
And I'm just like, I want to just lift that shit up and I want to move them i just want to get shit done and i'm just like i
want to just lift that shit up and i want to move them and i want to put that box in i want to go in
the loft and do that and i'm not really meant to and i'm trying to be sensible so i was like i want
to talk about that but then i got that email and i was like well i can't mention that because
this shit bag thinks i mentioned being pregnant too often still managed to didn't you yeah still got in there anyway so fuck you but
then she said why do you refer yourself to yourselves as we right so so this is the actual
language thing the pregnancy thing was just a thing was just her being a dick i think but that's
fine because i'm pregnant and i'm happy to be pregnant and it's all i've got going on no no
so i need this person's email.
I just feel like I could offload a lot of stuff
and that could help us.
You're going to have a lovely time.
But we say we,
but it doesn't mean we as in...
We say we.
We.
We.
It's very confusing.
I find it hard to explain it
when I get quizzed on it.
When someone's like us and we and we
and I'm like
I can't
you're going to have to wait
until your catcher's seen it
in a sentence
and then I'll explain it
and then I'll be like
explain it
are you coming
I think we've done it before
but are you coming with we
are you coming with us
we
so I hope that helps
Kate
and yeah
the baby's due in January
I'll be looking forward
to the card
through the post
yeah Kate's not going to know
but I will need that
because I think
I really think me and Kate
would hit it off
well honestly
you can go and take
your little anxiety attacks
over to Kate
because that would be nice
she'll tuck you in
in the bed
during the day
yeah that would be nice
you did
so I said to you
when I went up to bed
today
when I went up to bed
with me
with me
heavy depression today
and anyone listening anyone listening who thinks I'm taking the piss out of depression I'm not I went to bed at day when I went to bed with me with me heavy depression at day you were and anyone listening
anyone listening
who thinks I'm
taking the piss
out of depression
I'm not
I went to bed
during the day
you tell me
that's not the act
of a depressed man
I went up
you can't take the piss
out of depression
when you have depression
but you know what
people are like
they'll be like
you're making fun of it
I'm not making fun of it
I'm fucking miserable
god damn everything
but I went up
I went upstairs and you were like do you know what just stay and chat and I was like look I'm just going to go to but I went up I went upstairs
and you were like
do you know what
just stay and chat
and I was like
look I'm just going to go to bed
I was like
just come and talk to us
if you want to talk to us
fucking half an hour later
you came up
just as I was nodding off
well do you know what I was doing
you dick
I was watching that noodle video
brilliant
and that's what made us
absolutely brilliant
think about lifting stuff
and then I read that
great
so I'm sorry
who's more miserable
you or me
competition
who's more depressed I'm just a's more miserable you or me competition who's more depressed
listen we're both as depressed as each other
so that's okay
fair enough
got a laugh about it
exactly love you
just want to let you all know
I feel like I
don't want to brag and I want to
word this like in quite a humble way so I don't want to brag and I want to word this like
in quite a humble way
so I don't sound like a big head
I am
in awe of the genuine
magnanimous power
that this podcast
I went the wrong way didn't I?
I don't know what you're talking about
Dominoes have caved in
and they've started doing half and half again
they've started doing half and half again no they haven't they've started doing
half and half again
they listen to this podcast
they're
shat their little knickers
realised they were
being stupid
and they're doing
half and half again
have they for real
yeah
they've started yeah
and can I just say now
right
I'm not going to name them
but a rival pizza company
got in touch
listened to the podcast
got in touch with
our management
and said
hey guys
we're doing half and half we'll send you
one and you can post about it like hashtag fuck dominoes i was like hey hey that is snake behavior
and i'm not happy with that i'm not happy with that at all so when you're getting your first
half and half i don't know do you know what you know the weirdest bit is do you know how many
times i've ordered a half and half how many tried once that time that's the only time i've ever
tried a half and half oh no
and weren't doing them
but you can't be saying that
maybe it's not as popular
as what you think
it might be
but I mean
it's not like
there's nothing fucking different
there's nothing different
I can't believe
they've brought it back
they have
they've brought it back
I got tagged in a post
see there
that cheered you up a bit
that must make you feel a bit better
a little bit
I might get one
just for the crack
you love dominoes
I might get a half margarita and half margarita
with extra cheese and see if I can see which side's which.
Well, there you go. Why don't you...
It might just bump up like a curb.
Why don't you really try and push your luck
and
get margarita, but just get me a slice
of bolognese.
I don't think they do bolognese. What?
Oh, God. They don't
do bolognese? No. Pizza? No. They don't do bolognese? No.
Pizza?
No, they don't.
Domino's?
No, stop saying words.
No.
I think they do like ground beef.
They'll do like ground beef and stuff.
Oh, my God.
That's exactly what bolognese is.
No, bolognese is the sauce and everything.
I bet you'll have to go to Kills for that if you want.
Ground beef?
Ground beef on a pizza?
Can you imagine?
I might actually, you know what it is?
I might actually phone them up and go,
look, now that they do half and half again,

a slice of pepperoni,
a slice of,
you know,
vegetable,
slice of chicken.

He stops and announces
He needs to go
To the toilet
Thinking he meant
For a wee
I suggested
He do it over a wall
Jesus
Without hesitation
He turned around
And dropped trow.
Just trow. I like that.
Is that a thing? I mean. Dropped trow?
That is someone who says
dropped trows are so much.
They've had to abbreviate it.
So I don't know what word that is.
Dropped trow. Is that
a posh way of saying it? And we just
don't know about it. I don't know. Dropped trow.
What?
Alright, Shahz saved a few words there because instead he turned around and took his
trousers down or dropped his trousers just dropped trow i like it yeah wow it's like when the
government uh dropped um at from stay at home and it was just stay home oh yeah living in california
yeah yeah yeah dropped trow drop trow fantastic um, yeah, yeah. Dropped Trow. Dropped Trow. Love it. Fantastic.
So he's dropped Trow.
Dropped Trow.
Proceeding to sit on the side of the wall and take a shit.
The worst.
In someone's front garden.
The worst.
I was surprised, but in my drunken state, I laughed it off and let him get on with his business.
Mangy.
Good for the compost, right?
Great.
Horrible.
Little comedian.
I love, honestly, right right if i had a little front
wall you wouldn't know how high we're thinking like knee high yeah and i saw someone hanging
their arse over my wall in the middle of the night right i would open the door so quietly all the
lights off open the door so quietly and i would just run up behind them and i would just fucking
hoof them as hard as i could yes i'd get shit on my shoe but it would be so you know you'd get done i would wouldn't you'd get done the police would come and
they'd go we're arresting you for assault and you'd go they were shitting in me garden they'd
go well we don't care you started that where's the smoking gun i mean shitty shoe chris it's a
cruel world we live in honestly what can you do. No wonder there's a pandemic shitting over people's
garden walls. I know. Heavens to Betsy.
Cut to the next morning when he
realised he had lost his wallet.
Good. Serves him right. Must have lost
it at the rugby club he thought. Brilliant.
He phoned them and asked if there was any
lost property handed in from the previous night
but they said no.
We hadn't been anywhere else as we live
walking distance to the venue
so the only other option was losing it on the way home.
Remembering his toilet stop in the random garden
he concluded it must have fallen out of his pocket there.
So we went back to the house to see if it was anywhere lying around.
We arrived at the garden and peeked over the wall but the wallet was nowhere
to be seen. My boyfriend was also confused as the shit he had done there the previous night,
he assured me it was a whopper, had disappeared.
Maybe he'd got the wrong house I thought but he was adamant it was the correct one.
At that moment, the woman
who lived at the house came outside
and asked if she could help.
My boyfriend
explained that he had lost his wallet and was
looking around to find it. He asked
her if she had found one in her garden
that morning and she said
Mysteries, mysteries, mysteries.
What do you think she said?
This is the bit where you need to guess
This is the new format
Okay
We'll see how long it lasts
Okay
Well I'll tell you how long it's going to last
Not very long
Because if the answer is no
It's the shittest email ever
The answer is yes
So what did she say?
Yeah she found it
Okay
It was in a big pile of shite
It was in some dog shit
Is that what you're going for?
That's my guess
It was in some dog shit
Yeah something like that
Okay
She said Was it you who shat on me tortoise i apologize i apologize wholeheartedly
you could have gave me a year and i would not have come up with was it you who shat on me tortoise
turned out she had a pet tortoise that roamed around the garden
and my boyfriend had unknowingly taken a shit on its back before it waddled away.
Hence the vanishing poo.
Wow.
Needless to say, he sheepishly made his excuses and left,
cancelling all his cards immediately and dying of shame.
Dying of shame only when he found out that he shat on the tortoise
and the mummy come out.
Not dying of shame the night that he dropped trow
and did it over the back of the bloody wall.
Good grief.
Shameful, shameful.
That was...
Three.
This is Robin's mysteries, mysteries, mysteries.
So there you go.
Can I just say that?
Poor tortoise, man.
That tortoise walking from the door back to the,
from the wall, sorry, back to the door
must have been plodding along going,
hey, I think I've put on a bit of weight.
Christmas.
It's time for What's Your Beef?
What's your beef?
Beef.
Lily's first, what's your beef?
My beef with you this week is...
You hinted at this earlier on didn't you
yes
so recently
and I don't know why
I don't know if it's
if you've done it always
but it's just annoying
us at the minute
because we are spending
every bastard
god damn
day
together
sick of you
recently
for some reason
whether you're eating
or you were doing
the DIY yesterday
you cut your finger
you started licking your fingers loads.
It's horrible.
Have you noticed it?
I'm just trying to get South Tyneside up to that number one spot.
But just all by yourself.
Just all by myself.
To infect yourself.
No, you lick your fingers all the time at the minute
and you don't do it in a nice way.
You do it like in a...
So you put something in the microwave the other day
and you got it out and you had a bit of food
and you were going...
Like an old man. Like an old bloke like licking your finger like anyone else would
just kind of go and suck it off and not really make much of a noise but you're like
and when you cut your finger yesterday doing them wardrobes and you are sucking the blood out i
could have i had to tell you to stop it didn't't I? You nearly left, didn't you? Uh-huh. It was awful. I cut, dear listener, right?
I cut.
Our darling husband here is,
our hard-working husband is doing DIY,
putting up wardrobes because she's nesting
and she wants all kinds done at the drop of a fucking hat.
And I cut under both my thumbnails
and they were bleeding
and I was trying to suck the blood off
so that I wouldn't get it on the white wardrobes
or the carpet.
And yeah, she's like,
you're going to have to stop that.
I'm going to have to leave.
I should just sat in the corner. It's the way you lick them, it's too i'm gonna have to leave i should just sat in the corner it's the way you lick them it's too much
and by the way while you sat in the corner while i was doing that you actually said the words while
i was putting them together you actually said the words i'm really enjoying sitting here doing
nothing that was nice yeah because i haven't done that for a while so it was enjoying myself oh
you know you got it backed up on your noodle videos to watch have you you know that fucking
time waste i haven't done nothing for you.
I do fucking nothing all the time, man.
Shut up.
How dare you?
Is this your beef or are you just being a dick?
Oh, no, no, no.
It's not my beef at all.
I've got a good beef with you this week.
Oh, come on then.
I've got a double-headed beef with you this week.
No, no.
Honestly, you made a right twat of yourself this week.
What have I done?
Right.
My beef with you this week, right?
You went to our office.
We've got an office that we're going work
oh i know each other oh yeah yeah yeah oh yeah yeah yeah yeah so you went to the office okay
i'm gonna go to the office i'm gonna get some questions from the public and blah blah blah do
a bit work sick of being in the house no problem darling i'll continue doing the diy that you'll
probably come back and have a go at this for later on if i cut my finger i injure myself in the line
of duty now the doorbell rang uh it was a midwife come from midwife appointment with you yeah you hit the roof if i
leave the house and an amazon delivery comes that i was waiting in for or anything literally i'll
leave and the window cleaner comes in your phone and you go window clear the window clear was
coming like you live
in a tower
and you haven't

humanity

right
nutter
now
bless her
because we know
this midwife
she's lovely
she's a fan of the podcast
she's absolutely lovely
I actually
because I panicked
I didn't know what to do
so I let her in
I put the telly on for her
right
I let her in
I put the telly on
I'm literally going to pick Rosie up
from the office
it's two minutes away
I'll go and get her
because I'd walk down
like a mug
I totally forgot
the weirdest bit was
I put the telly on for her
and CBB was on off her and CBeebies was on
off Robin
and I went
do you know how to use SkyQ
and she went
oh I'll be fine
and when I eventually came back
she was sitting
watching CBeebies
because she didn't know
how to use SkyQ
or maybe she didn't want
to touch the remote
for disinfecting purposes
I don't know
but I
so I went down to get you
I phoned you
on my way
right
and I went
the midwife's here by the way and you were like oh shit and I went what's happening she left I went no I've you. I phoned you on my way, right? And I went, the midwife's here, by the way.
And you were like, oh, shit.
And I went, what's happening?
She left.
I went, no, I've let her in.
She's just sitting, chilling, watching the telly.
I'll come and get you.
I'll come straight up.
You had the audacity, the absolute barefaced cheek to say to me, where is she?
Front room or back room?
And I went, back room.
And you went, oh, but the back room's a mess.
You cheeky fucking dick.
I don't, well, I'm sorry.
I couldn't believe it.
You need to learn a little bit of house etiquette.
You need to learn a bit of time management
and knowing when someone's coming round
to blimmin' scan your child.
I forgot, okay.
I forgot.
Unbelievable.
I'd set an alarm
and it told us the day before.
And naively I thought,
oh, I'll remember that,
but I didn't remember.
So I'm sorry Michelle
look at your diary
I forgot
alright I forgot
anyway
next time you bring someone
in the house
who doesn't come regular
right
who doesn't know
that we're not pigs
yeah
put them in the nice room
right
sit them in the good room
I've deliberately got
a good room
that never
nothing ever moves
nobody goes in there really
put them in there, really.
Put them in there. Don't put them in the flipping the cereal stuck to the carpet.
CBeebies is on. There's train tracks
going up across the floor. Don't
put them in there. Put them in the good room.
You've got to put them in there so they think
these live like pigs. There's nothing to steal.
That's what you've got to do.
I hope she didn't say I'd clipped
Robin's nails on the carpet
earlier
and I hadn't moved her yet.
You ready for part two,
me beef?
What is what?
Well, part two, me beef is.
We went through to the front room
when she got here.
I went through to the front room
when she got here
and she was doing
all her midwife stuff on you,
right?
And you,
every single day,
every single day,
oh Chris,
oh I'm tired,
oh pregnancy,
oh why do I feel sick? Oh, I've got indigestion. Why am I knackered? Oh, Chris. Oh, I'm tired. Oh, pregnancy. Oh, why do I feel sick?
Oh, I've got indigestion.
Why am I knackered?
Oh, what's wrong with us?
Oh, Chris, what's wrong with us?
Oh, my God.
I'm massive.
Oh, God.
I'm knackered.
Oh, I'm sad.
Oh, what's happening?
Oh, God.
Midwife, how are you having that?
How are you finding the pregnancy, Rosie?
Fine, yeah, I'm great.
It's just great.
Breezing through, not an issue.
I nearly fucking exploded.
I'm sorry.
Rosie, I've never felt so betrayed in all my life.
All right, okay.
Well, let's just clarify here, right?
Unbelievable.
I think when your midwife asks you that question,
I don't think she means how you're doing.
Like, did you mean to eat them nine packets
of monster munch last night i don't think she's asking that i think she's asking more so like
how how do you feel is the baby kicking things like that not i'm bloody sick in my life i hate
being pregnant i want it down a bottle of of gin she doesn't need to know that
even just a little
even a little thing
even just a little
sentence of
oh I've been a little
bit knackered
but you know
don't we all
as being pregnant
I think I did say
that after
definitely didn't
it's up there
with the level
of betrayal you feel
when your child's
really really well
behaved for a teacher
and you look
and you go
who the fuck
is that
it was up there
with that
well sorry
but you know
that's what honestly that's what you're there with that. Well, sorry, but you know. Mortified. That's what.
Honestly.
That's what you're there for.
You're going to apologise?
What?
Apologise to being pregnant and tired?
Absolutely not.
But yes, Michelle, I like you.
She's having a fucking stinker, Michelle.
I'm not good.
She's having a stinker.
She said I look good, though.
Yeah.
And Michelle, I want that vase back that you stole.
I'm joking.
She didn't.
She didn't say anything
vase
you're funny

that I'm close enough to
that I feel I can ask this
so this one's for Chris
wow
I'm honoured
just for you
I'm honoured
okay
come on
you might not be
oh god
well you might be
what do you do with your willy when
you have a poo does it lay on the toilet seat is it dangling in the bowl does it even touch the
underneath bit of the toilet seat or the rim of the bowl bit where the water comes out when you
flush what do you do in public bathrooms i need need to know because I literally lay awake at night thinking about it.
Who the fuck is this?
It's someone, I think, who's watched a lot of porn
and doesn't realise that average Joe's willies are not long enough
to dangle in the water of the bowl.
Listen, listen, right?
Yes, it dangles in the water when that toilet's blocked.
And it's right up at the rim.
Of course it does.
Who wouldn't?
Right?
I...
What a fucking lunatic type this.
And does it lay on the toilet seat?
Well, no, because...
It's quite a gap, that, isn't it?
Does it lay on the toilet seat?
So they think that I sit in the...
It could lay on the toilet seat if you wanted it to.
Could it?
Yeah.
No, it could.
Not 100%.
Not 100%.
We've got a really small toilet seat.
No, it could.
But my point is, it could.
Christopher, I've seen your flattered penis.
It couldn't lay on the toilet seat.
Right.
You'd have to be right shuffled on it.
Right.
Okay.
Pause the podcast right now. No. Pause the podcast right now.
No!
Pause the podcast right now.
Take your headphones off.
Come on, to the toilet.
No!
Come on.
I don't want to see.
Right, hurry up.
Come on.
Hurry up.
It does.
One nil.
It does.
Okay, it does.
One nil.
It can sit on the rim of the toilet seat. Listen, the problem is, it can can sit on the rim of the toilet seat.
Listen, the problem is, it can't lie on the lid of the toilet seat.
Whoever sent this in, Mrs. Maniac, right?
Because, because, with every...
This is so... This is the rudest we've ever gone, right?
With every push...
What push?
Of doing number two
oh no
a bird number one comes out
so it could lay on the toilet seat
but what lunatic would lie on the toilet seat
because you would just
wee all over whatever's in front of you
does that happen
yes
no
yes
is that meant to happen Chris
oh I find
see I find this juvenile
and disgusting and pathetic
but are there literally women
listening now going
eh
does that happen
well I didn't know that men
wee a little bit every time you have a poo.
So when you go Tuesdays,
you do a little bit of onesies as well?
No way.
Yeah.
We might get emails.
That might be something.
You might need to go to the doctors.
Well, why?
Oh, because I can't lie me knob on the toilet seat.
I don't want to.
Because you keep winging every time.
Butcher's bloody sausage on a slab.
You got to admit, Rosie, what you just saw there was a sad bloody sight. It was horrible. Honestly. like a bloody sausage on a slab.
You've got to admit, Rosie, what you just saw there was a sad, bloody sight.
It was horrible.
Honestly, it's put me off for a while.
I'm looking like,
it's a good job that we're already pregnant.
There's going to be a lot of blokes doing this,
I think, from now on.
I'm sorry.
It did really fit as well.
I'm sorry.
I'm making it sound like you've got some sort of microbe.
Slagging me off?
Honestly?
Oh, gosh, funny.
That is the weirdest email.
I know.
Such a weird personal question.
Yeah.
That's up there with the weird person on Twitter now
and then who asks for socks and that off people.
I would do an office poll,
but I've only just got a new job
and I'm not close enough to them yet.
It is as well and I haven't been

Hiya Chris and Rosie. Please keep me
anonymous. Always. Thought you would like to hear
About an awful date
I had with a guy
From everyone's favourite
Dating app
Tinder
Yeah
Tinder
Oh hold on
I'm gonna stop you right there Rosie
Right
Because I feel as a duty
I had an email a while ago
Of someone
And I've kept it in my computer
Just for a moment like this right
Okay
Hi Chris and Rosie
After listening to the most
Recent podcasts
You have mentioned several times After some quite frankly horrific stories from tinder
brackets the guy with the dildo shelf is quite frankly the most disturbing thing i've ever heard
of my life calls brackets close brackets i feel duty bound to share with you that i met my
boyfriend on tinder after the breakdown of my 11 year marriage and i can honestly say i have never
been happier i guess i just wanted
to say that there are some good eggs out there and those poor sods that are still swiping their
way through the masses their time will come big hugs and massive congrats on the new baby hannah
and josh thank you hannah and josh there you go that's really lovely but unfortunately i don't
think anybody really wants to hear about the lovely love stories that people have found on Tinder
I just wanted to say
Hannah, Josh
you're in the minority
Rosie
tell us the weird one
okay yeah
that is lovely
I know a few people
who have met on Date Insights
Date Insights are great
they're the new way
to meet people
but unfortunately
I don't think we'd be
on as many downloads
as we are
if we just talked
about the good stuff
exactly
we're here for the grim
the ugly
and the plain weird.
Hannah and Josh, piss off you boring bastards.
Oh no.
Thank you Hannah and Josh.
Well done yous.
Totally see where you're coming from.
Anyway, so.
Keep me at a non.
Ovs.
Awful date.
I was talking to this guy for a few weeks over social media that I met on Tinder.
Seemed like a nice guy and was actually interested in more than a shag.
I drove to his
house and we went to a local pub from there for a drink we had a lovely date and he seemed like a
nice guy when we got back to his he invited me upstairs and one thing led to another oh god this
is not me at all so i have no idea why i went through with it but uh it's done now wow that's
what everyone says yeah oh yeah it's my first time oh my It's what everyone says. Yeah, oh yeah. It's my first time. Oh my God, I never do this.
I never do this on a first night.
Never.
Yes, I am freshly shaved.
Are you?
Funny that.
Just in case.
We then went downstairs to where his parents were sat in the living room.
Good grief.
He walked out the room and said he was going to get something.
So I was left awkwardly with a guy's family
who definitely just heard
us having sex.
Jesus.
He walked back in
with something in his hand.
You will never guess
what he had.
I should have done this
for Bloody Rosie's Mysteries.
What do you think he had?
Baby duck.
Baby chick.
Frog.
Mole.
Mole.
No.
Salt. Some salt. No chick. Frog. Mole. No. Salt.
Some salt.
No.
Lamp.
No.
Car.
Right, that's enough.
Car.
A little toy car.
This guy brought in a list of A to Z of girls he had shagged
and added my name to the letter A in front of his parents.
Go and piss off.
There is no way.
He discussed how the sex went in front of his parents
and then proceeded to read out the names of girls he had shagged
and how many of each name he had.
What?
He had nearly filled every letter up with a name
and with several on each letter.
What the fuck?
No! I made the excuse excuse i needed to go home as
it was getting late i made the excuse i need to go home as it was as it was getting absolutely
horrendous can you believe that that's no way do you know what it is there is part of us that goes
that's not real but then there's part of you goes well why would somebody it's a really random thing
i think it might be real what What was mum and dad doing?
Oh, Jeffrey.
Do you think they turned the telly down?
Probably.
They probably...
You think the poor's got the water?
Well chuffed of them, yeah.
Oh, my God.
Got any Bs?
Got any Zs, eh, son?
God.
Like sex scrabble.
I know.
Horrible, that, isn't it?
Oh, I can't...
I can't get my head around that.
Yeah.
Can you imagine him going through the list like that?
Going, oh, hey, look at this.
I've filled it up.
Oh, hey, there we go.
All I needed was H, Hannah.
That's great.
And then she's like, sorry, no, my name's Anna.
And he's like, you're fucking joking, aren't you?
And his dad's like, son!
For fuck's sake, man!
You had all 26 there, but you never listened, you know that?
He doesn't listen, does he, Derek?
You don't, do you?
Babadoo, babadoo, babadoo, bah!
Hi, Rosie and Chris.
Just remembered a funny story from a few years back that you might enjoy.
I'd been to the Granger Market.
Newcastle, yeah.
That was in Newcastle.
And bought a large squid from one of the fishmongers to use it as fishing bait.
I already hate where this
i just i've been i've been affected by this podcast no it's not i've been affected by the
podcast i don't like he's been in the granger market buying a squid i'm a bit annoyed that
he's bought a squid to take fishing he's using it as bait yeah yeah i think the squid's quite
a nice thing i feel like that's a bit of a waste yeah
you could use maggots
for bait
well it might be really good bait
I don't know much about fishing
I just
I think squid
squid surely is a bit of a delicacy
and isn't that some sort of
em
like
not incest
cannibalism
cannibalism
incest
no
do you know how fishing works
do you know what
you don't pull your rod out
and the fish is just
fucking the hook
going come on.
Put us back in the water.
I need some privacy.
It's eating it.
That's what I meant.
That's what I meant.
It was the wrong word.
Cannibalism.
Cannibalism.
Fucking with the food chain.
No, no.
They all eat each other.
Everyone fucking eats everyone in the ocean.
It's craziness, isn't it?
Okay.
It's carnage.
Well, fair enough.
A bit decadent, though.
I mean, it is a bit.
Yeah, so if he's taking squid.
He's wetting the Granger market.
He's taking calamari
to go and try and catch a little fucking couple of tiddlers. That's what I'm saying. a bit more, yeah. So if he's taking squid. He's wetting the Granger market. He's taking calamari to go and try and catch a little fucking,
a couple of tiddlers.
That's what I'm saying.
That is weird, yeah.
This is in the northeast as well.
That is really weird.
He actually goes fishing in Sunderland.
Doesn't even go in Newcastle.
I go past them all in Sunderland.
Yeah, well, that's where he's fishing.
I go past every single one of them on my bike.
Would you have guessed that they'd have squid?
I wouldn't have guessed, no, no.
You know.
Tell you what, they're a rag-tag bunch of individuals,
the guys fishing at Sunderland Pier. I don't want to slag anyone off here but i i'm i'm not
the most comfortable when i go past it's fucking loads of them and they're all like like blokes
like scary looking but they're just sitting standing fishing but they are just a little
bit frightening must get a lot of fish there but so anyway i just the fact that someone has emailed our podcast and he's just purchased
a fresh squid
I don't like where it's going
okay well
I don't like where it's going
let's just see where it goes
right
so he's got his
he's got his squid
he's got his squid
for the fishing bait
right
roll on the next day
me and my cousin
he was about eight
went fishing next to
the glass centre
in Sunderland
right I'm guessing he's a man and the cousin's eight or whatever eight, went fishing next to the glass centre in Sunderland. Right.
I'm guessing he's a man
and the cousin's eight or whatever.
I don't know.
He must be a bit,
well, a few years ago.
He might be a teenager.
Who knows?
The day had been quite dull.
You'd never have guessed
that he'd been fishing.
Fishing, never in the world.
Dull.
Fuck it.
I've got to say, like,
hey, do you know what?
No, I'm going to slag them off.
Bunch of boring fuckers.
What, fishing? Aye, you're boring us out. Oh, don't. You're boring us out. You know, mate. Do you know how many I'm going to slag them off bunch of boring fuckers what fishing
aye you're boring us out
oh don't
you're boring us out
you know my
do you know how many
supermarkets there are
do you know how many
supermarkets with fishing
you walk past on the
way to the pier
boring fucker
you know my opinion
on fishing
what's your opinion
on fishing
well when my
ex-boyfriend
made us went fishing
with him once
did he
oh and I
I don't know
whether I talk
have you said this
on the podcast
I don't know
come on
he made us go fishing
we used to love fishing and I just hated it.
Boring.
Made us go with him.
It was freezing cold, and he put up a tent for us,
and I was just raging the whole time.
Sorry.
Sorry.
This is amazing.
We haven't spoken about this on here.
I don't even know if I know this.
Yeah.
Can I just say, right?
Can I just say?
What?
I've got the short end of the fucking stick here.
I'm too good to you.
What do you mean?
Because this is the same boyfriend
who used to go at the fucking driving range
and sit and watch him hit golf balls.
Just sit there,
like a fucking,
like a little weird little gargoyle
perched watching him.
This was back before when I had children and that,
and I, you know,
I had a lot of time.
Nah, I'm too good to you.
Honestly,
you've struck gold here.
He used to take you
to the bloody driving range
where,
where we're going tonight, love,
and we're going out for a meal.
We're going to the driving range, love.
You'll sit and watch me hit balls.
He wasn't from Yorkshire
but it just sounds better.
And then now,
now I hear
he's gone fishing
and he's just put you up
a little tent for you to sit in.
I read three magazines.
Like a dog.
And he's took you some magazines in a little tent.
It was awful.
Where was it?
I don't know.
It was one of them,
it was like a reservoir where you've got to pay it to go.
Fucking hell.
But then you've got to put the fish back in.
I was raging.
I was like, this is pointless.
What a fucking...
Can't even eat the fish.
Wow.
Yeah, but I mean, when I knew when it came to the. What a fucking... Can't even eat the fish. Wow. Yeah, but I mean,
when I knew when it came to the end of the relationship...
We need more information here.
Well, I knew it was at the end of the relationship
when he was going to the golf course
and asked us to walk around with him
and I said, no, I can't do this anymore.
And that's when we split up.
So you'd rather sit on the bench at the driving range
than walk around the golf course?
That was one, Chris, that was one time.
Yeah.
It was one.
No, but I used to have a turn as well.
It was quite fun.
I used to have a turn as well. This is quite fun. I used to have a turn as well.
This is the woman who won't even play a game of pool with me
on the pool table that's in the next room.
This is, honestly, you went fishing and sat.
Honestly, I'm betrayed.
You went and sat in a little tent.
You put a little, how long did it take me to put the tent up?
I can't remember.
It was just like a little covering thing. It was really cold. I really had a bad time. It was a to put the tent up I can't remember it was just like
a little covering thing
it was really cold
I really had a bad time
it was a horrible day
I wanted to stay
for the full day
because he like
paid for the full day
and we would have
to drive there
so it was quite far away
I don't know
I hope I never heard this I don't know I don't know all have I never heard this
I don't know
I don't know
all the other fishermen
going
everyone else has brought
other fishermen with them
or dogs
and he's just brought
a fucking woman
to sit in a tent
and read magazines
just fucking whinging
it was really shit
Ozzy will you shut up man
you're whinging
scaring all the fish off
trying to relax
I was just
seething
that's terrible
anyway
oh he's a nice guy
That's just
No I'm not snagging him off
I'm snagging you off
For going
I'm snagging you off
You won't even play pool with me
Well why do you think
Because I've been dragged everywhere
He's ruined it
He ruined it for you
Sitting in a little tent
Watching some fish
Can we crack on with this story
You know what
No we can't
Because I'm now
Because I'm so angry
And also The phrase I'd rather watch paint dry For me You know what? No, we can't because I'm now, because I'm so angry.
And also, the phrase,
I'd rather watch paint dry,
for me, is now being replaced with,
I'd rather sit in a tent and watch someone fish.
That is the worst day.
Sitting in a tent in the cold,
watching someone fish,
is the worst thing I can imagine. I don't even think you caught anything that day.
It doesn't matter,
you'd have a fucking hired back anyway,
wouldn't you?
I don't think you got anything, though.
Anyway.
Right, so, can we crack on?
Yeah, we can, but my life's just changed.
This is amazing.
Great.
So, they've got their squid, and they've gone to Sunderland to fish.
Yeah.
Day had been quite dull.
Never.
Until something amazing happened.
Doubt it.
In the corner of my eye, we saw a woman and a dog walking in our direction.
The woman shouted,
Don't let her meet anything!
But by this point, it was already too late.
The dog had picked up the huge squid I'd bought the day before
and started hacking it to bits.
Shut up. I said that in the beginning.
I know you did. I know that was really weird.
Wow!
The woman started shouting,
Kick it! Kick it! Oh no! I know that was really weird wow the woman started shouting kick it
kick it
oh no
so
without any thought
my cousin
gave the dog
a swift kick
no fucking way
he would drop the bait
as you can guess
the woman
was absolutely
furious
I tried telling him off but I was laughing too hard he's putting brackets here guess the woman was absolutely feeling it.
I tried telling him off but I was
laughing too hard.
He's putting
brackets here.
I don't condone
animal cruelty by
the way.
It was just the
circumstance and to
be fair his cousin
was a child and we
don't either but it's
just.
But why she shouted
kick it and then
she went off it?
She meant the
squid Chris.
She didn't mean
her dog.
Kick it away from She meant kick the squid. Kick it didn't mean her dog. Kick it away from him. She meant kick the squid.
Kick it.
Kick it.
Kick it.
And he booted the dog.
Well, at least the kids only ate, so it can't have been a hard kick.
And he didn't mean to do it at all.
Wow.
Wow.
You'd be raging, wouldn't you?
She was not happy.
Not me dog, you little twat.
The question is, have either of you been in a hilarious
or embarrassing situation where you have not quite understood the context of something someone else
has asked you to do i i kind of i haven't off the top of my head i can't really think of one
specifically like that but with all of like the this whole covid stuff and having masks on and
having to do these one-way systems
and stuff in supermarkets i was out on my bike the other day bike guy and i went into a supermarket
and i had my helmet on and i had my sunglasses on and i had my mask on right yeah and i walked in
and i was getting some bottles of beer some bottles of corona yes for the um for it was
saturday night i was getting some bottles for the night and because you got your mask on and you
look at the one-way system and everything's going on i'm
on my bike and i'm not good and i just walked up to the the the fridge because it's one of their
moments where it was like i wasn't thinking straight and i just picked up the bottles and
i just started putting them into my backpack and i was just like shoveling them in and i turned and
there was like a woman walking down the aisle who worked there like glaring at us and i went oh
uh i should probably pay for these first shouldn't i and she went and i was like i was like you you think you've just caught me fucking stealing
haven't you i was like you honestly think you've got and i was i wasn't even embarrassed i was
angry like i was angry that she and again it's the masks like you can't convey you cannot see
enough emotion so she was like i just caught you stealing you're gonna pay for it
you know
and get off with it
and I was like
and then when I got
to the counter
it was her serving us
and I went
I'll finally pay for them
eh
and then I paid for them
she was like
and I was like
now I can put them in a bag
and she was like
you can
and I was like
you fuck
and there was no way
but there was no
there was no way out of it
there was no way
I was really embarrassed
but there was no way
out of being able to go like
you know take my mask off and go listen I of being able to go like, you know,
take my mask off and go,
listen,
I wasn't,
because the more I'd have went,
you know,
I wasn't stealing them.
It would have been like,
well,
you were,
you were just protesting too much.
I caught you.
Thou doth protest too much.
But I talked about it
on the one show,
didn't I?
My mum,
when she went into Sainsbury's,
I said this on the one show,
I don't know how many people
saw it on the one show,
but again,
when there's so many things going on, you're not thinking, my mum was so worried about putting her mask on. I said this on the one show. I don't know how many people saw it on the one show, but again, when there's so many things going on,
you're not thinking.
My mum was so worried
about putting her mask on.
She walked in from the rain
into Sainsbury's,
put her mask on
and she was walking around
and she says all the staff
were staring at her
for ages
and she was like,
why is everyone staring at us?
And she was like,
I've got my mask on,
why is everyone staring?
And a woman came up
and went,
you know you can put your brolly down.
She's walking around Sainsbury's
with her brolly up.
Fucking like a dodgem.
Dear Rosie and Chris,
here's a little story for you.
I've listened to
every one of your podcasts
and I've now plucked up
the courage to send you
this story.
Imagine Christmas Eve.
You go out to your family
for a lovely meal,
play a few games
when you get home,
charades, guess who,
post-it notes on your head,
you know,
the standard Christmas games. It's getting close to 12 o'clock which obviously means bedtime
even at the age of 32 now i still feel 12 o'clock is my limit on christmas eve i have to agree with
that yeah you gotta go before santa comes i say to my fiancee who i've been with for seven years
that it's time to go upstairs his reply go up babe I'll be up in a minute as I've got one more present to wrap
and gives me a wink.
Oh, no.
So off I go.
It's his penis.
Oh, no.
It's his penis.
Would you stop guessing stuff?
It's his penis.
No, it's absolutely not.
Okay.
So off I go excitedly thinking,
I wonder what he's got me.
I get in my Christmas PJs,
do all the pre-bed pampering
and remember that I've left
my phone charger downstairs. Oh, no.
Oh God.
Oh no.
I can't.
However, I carry on to the kitchen.
The noises continue, so I press my ear against the wall and think,
what on earth are they watching?
It sounds like porn.
Oh, for fuck's sake, on Christmas Eve, what's wrong with everyone?
I remember that I've left my drink in the lounge,
so think I'll use that as an excuse to pop back in
and have a look at what they are watching.
They can easily hide any gifts.
This is...
As I open the door to my horror,
I see my fiancée
licking out my mum.
No way on earth.
That no. No? on earth. That.
No.
No?
She's repeated it.
Yes.
My fiancé.
Fallatio and her mum.
Doing what?
Her mum.
I scream.
I mean, what else was I supposed to do?
That's her.
My dad comes rushing down and I tell him all.
He tells them both to get out of the house.
I haven't spoken to either of them since.
It's been five years. And Christmas has never been the same again. Jesus Christ.
Jesus.
Yeah, they don't do a card for that.
And you know what it is, Rosie?
You know what's the saddest thing about all this?
What?
Santa's supposed to get the pie.
We are...
Can I just say, we're taking the piss,
but we are so sorry.
How horrible that is for you.
That is awful.
But there's a happy ending.
Okay.
Sort of.
Obviously, a lot has happened since, and I'm now happily married with two kids.
Oh, I'm so glad.
So, listen.
Yep.
What's that remind you of?
Fuck him.
Fuck him.
Fuck her.
Yeah.
Wow.
Intense, that, isn't it?
Oh, my God.
Thought you might like that.
A bit gossipy, that one, isn't it?
Jesus.
A bit like reading one of them magazines full of all the...
Yeah, the Reader's Wife stories in porn magazines.
Yeah.
Love it.
Good grief.
Babadoo, babadoo, babadoo, bah.
Rosie.
Right.
Yeah.
Rosie.
What?
I've got a question for you, actually.
What?
This is so weird and random.
I was watching you being framed with Robin the other night.
Mm-hmm.
And there's a lot of...
There was a sports special.
There's a lot of people falling over hurdles.
Yeah.
At school, did you do real hurdles,
or did you do pretend hurdles?
I don't think we did hurdles at all.
Because my school didn't have hurdles,
but we just set up a 100-metre track,
and every sort of 10 metres,
the PE teacher just shouted,
jump, and you had to jump.
And that's not a lie.
And I wish it was jump and that's not a lie and i wish it was and it's not like so so you would run from the bottom of the field it would be two years you would run
and like and then you just go jump and you both have to jump and then a few more steps then you
go jump and then a few more steps and you go jump and you go at the end and you'd be like oh like
you wouldn't have made over them you weren't jumping high wow but he was so he wins that's interesting yeah just just felt like
you need to know that no i didn't know that and i don't i don't remember doing hurdles at all
no so well i don't remember i never did hurdles i did a um i wasn't very good at it no i was
terrible at running at school yeah like shocking Like, shocking. I remember doing, like, cross-country.
Yeah.
But it was basically...
A jog.
It was a jog around the bottom of the field.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And what used to happen was there was teachers, like,
spread out making sure you were jogging.
Yeah.
But then when you were right at the other end of the field,
they couldn't see you.
Me and my friends used to just walk,
but lift our knees up really high
to look like we were running.
Hilarious.
So we just walked, but we flipped them up.
So, I mean, they must have realised
that now thinking back,
that's a terrible thing
because you would just know.
But we did that for years.
I remember once I went on,
I did like a cross-country run.
Like, I think it was through the school,
but it was like on a Saturday somewhere,
this big, like massive cross-country run with loads of runners like like the shields harriers who were
like running team and that they took part and loads of people took part and then you talk about
the great north run it wasn't a great north run and it wasn't it wasn't a junior north run it was
just some big run okay and i remember i did um i sort of it was like three times around this like
massive field kind of thing um and i thought the second time round was the third one.
And we got to like, what was the finish line?
And I like fucking pegged it and like overtook like two people.
And I was like, yeah!
And there was one lap left.
I was like, I just felt I was fucked.
You absolute mug.
Dear Rosie and Chris, I thought you'd enjoy this wee story from my single days.
It's the worst accent ever.
Yeah.
Where's she from?
Scotland, I think.
Great.
Just wee.
Wee.
Is it, so, is she Scottish and it's a wee story from her single days?
Or is she not and it's a wee story?
Oh, no, no, it's not about wee.
Right, okay.
Sorry.
You've got to check with Sagmode and all.
I know, well, yeah, it's not.
It's just a small story.
You've got it small story you got it
you got it
a few years ago
I went to Bruges
with a girlfriend of mine
for a weekend
she and I
had a great time
tasting all the beers
and I had managed
to convince
an old travelling friend
let's call him Steve
to come visit
on the Saturday
from Brussels
got you
what are you laughing at
just let's call him Steve
it's just
any name
pick a name
let's call him Steve do Any name. Pick a name.
Let's call him Steve.
Do you know what's funny?
The whole story is not actually that embarrassing for Steve.
Okay.
So the fact that she's changed his name.
I wish I once only wanted to use the power of deduction and find out.
Okay.
Do you know what I mean?
Fair enough. I quite fancied Steve when we were travelling.
And whilst he was definitely not boyfriend material,
he was still quite cool and good looking.
Okay, okay.
Anyway, a day and evening of drinking and laughter later and we convinced Steve to miss
his last train back to Brussels and stay with us. We said us girls could top and tail in
a bunk in our hostel and he could have the other bunk as there was no rooms left.
Hey, how would the other half live?
I know.
Oh, hey.
Wheel top and tail.
Hey, miss your train.
Wheel top and tail in a bunk bed in a hostel
because all the other beds are taken so it'll be fucking even
and you can have the other secondhand used last night bunk for yourself.
It's not inviting in my eyes.
That's not.
I would go, I'll get me train.
I'd sleep in the train station. 100%. i'll just stand there i'll just stand in the train station
till the morning the next train really no you wouldn't i probably would i'd probably just stand
there or sit in the corner well instead of sleeping in a bunk yeah in a hostel in a hostel
million percent yeah i just walk around the stand in the corner of a train station.
Yeah.
I don't believe that for a second.
I think you would regret that.
I think you'd be stood in the corner of that train station thinking,
I could be in a bed right now.
Well, this is pre-lockdown, so there wouldn't be a 10 o'clock,
you know, a 10 o'clock, whatever.
So you'd go to a nightclub or whatever.
You could go to McDonald's or something like that.
Oh, you are explaining.
And then you could literally go.
Yeah, yeah.
But then you'd go and stand, just stand in stand in the train station yeah but then you'd get that
really do you know when you're so tired that you know when you're traveling and you're so tired
that you want to just die that's what you'd be feeling like in that train station yeah and you
know what's worse than death a bunk bed in a hostel right well fair enough so we stumbled in
fairly pissed into our dorm and the girls in the other bunk
seemed quite annoyed
that we'd brought someone back
and we were making noise
yeah
sounds like your kind of dorm
it's
don't book a bed
in a room full of beds
and be surprised
when someone comes in
and makes some noise
yeah
like you haven't
you're not at the fucking
ward off Astoria
people are going to come in.
See, it's hard for us, though, to understand because it's something that we've never done.
And I don't think it's because, well, me personally,
by any means, being posh or anything like that,
just hostel and travelling life, I've never, ever done.
But I can't ever imagine going to sleep
next to a stranger in the same room.
I can't imagine it unless I was in prison. going to sleep next to a stranger in the same room.
I can't imagine it unless I was in prison.
Well, your thing at the minute is to just stop me snoring.
So you'd just be walking around the room all night,
shoving everyone all night, going,
so you're snoring? Stop snoring. Stop it.
I would. That's your new thing.
I would.
Have you ever heard you snoring, by the way?
Not your tennis snoring.
Think of that.
Why?
Think of what you just asked me.
Have I ever heard myself snoring?
Oh, okay.
Or have you lost your mind?
Would you like to hear yourself snoring?
Have you recorded it again?
Maybe I have.
Oh, for fuck's sake, man.
Do you want to?
I kind of live in this house.
Do you know that?
You actually want to, though?
It's like being in a big brother house.
You've just reminded us of it.
Come on, then.
But this is what I have to listen to six or seven times a night,
and this is why I wake you up.
You're going to get a shock.
It's awful, Chris.
Really?
This was last night.
I don't think it's that bad.
Yeah.
Are you ready?
Right, okay.
You snow as well.
I don't think I snow like this.
Okay, go on then.
Oh, shit.
Yeah. Okay. Hi, Grand. Yeah.
Okay.
Grandad Joe.
Your clip.
Every night, six or seven times, I swear to God.
Okay.
Awful.
And it wakes me up.
Wow.
So, there you go.
Okay, I'll take that.
Right, back to the hostel.
I told you, you reminded me of that.
I stand corrected.
So, they're making a lot of noise.
The girls are getting pissed off.
So they started to threaten to go tell the reception
and get us all kicked out for sneaking someone in.
Great.
Steve was in the bunk above us and was too drunk to obey orders.
He would keep leaning over and saying he needed company up there
as he was going to rush off to get the first train.
So we had to have one girl up there
in order for it to not look like
we had someone there in the morning.
I mean, I...
Like a boarding school
to check where you've slept.
Yeah.
What are you...
I need some company up here
is the worst line in the world, by the way.
And I'm getting an early train in the morning
so will someone come up here?
So he's, I mean, yeah.
I mean, he's trying his best.
He's trying it on.
He's trying his best.
I needed no excuse and so he's, I mean, yeah. I mean, he's trying his best. He's trying it on. He's trying his best. I needed no excuse.
And so I said, I'll go.
He was clearly wanting a cheeky snog.
Great.
So up I went.
And sure enough, his hands crept all over me.
And we were making out.
And he kept whispering just how much he liked me.
He continued and said he had fancied me from the start
and hadn't it been obvious?
And I said, well, no,
I didn't get that vibe from you at all when we were travelling.
He suddenly goes quiet
and says, Chloe?
I say, yes.
Another long silence.
Oh, shit.
At this point, I clocked that he thought he had been snogging my friend and immediately got angry and kicked him out of bed.
Oh, wow.
Oh, that is fantastic.
Can you imagine?
Congratulations, Steve.
You cock-blocked yourself.
Well, I was thinking about this, though.
What would you do?
Would you just keep...
Like, you would have to go...
Huh?
Chloe?
Wow.
Or would you just keep going?
I mean, I don't know.
Would it have been rude for him when he was saying
I need some company up here to specifically say
which one he wanted? I mean, he really
should have specified
which. Hey guys,
I got the early train in the morning, you know, they might
be rather lonely up here.
I need some company. Not you, Chloe.
Anyone but you,
Chloe. I need some company, one of you.
Not you, Chloe.
Eeny, meeny. anyone but you Chloe you need some company one of you not you Chloe eenie meenie
Chloe did you not get the hint
when he was going to miss his train
he offered you the train ticket
so you would just fuck off to Brussels
and leave you with his mate
poor Chloe
oh bless her heart
I'll go
he could have styled that out to be fair though she could have been like I didn't get that vibe when we were travelling he could have been like Poor Chloe. Oh, bless her heart. I'll go.
He could have started that out, to be fair, though.
She could have been like, I didn't get that vibe when we were travelling.
He could have been like, Chloe?
Mm-hmm.
Yeah?
How could you not have got that vibe?
I thought it was so obvious.
Now, goodnight.
God, this headache has come on so quickly.
Are you going to ask your mate if she's got any paracetamol?
Or will you go somewhere miles away?
Chloe, do you fancy going and standing in the train station on your own?
I've heard from a friend it's really good.
It's the McDonald's on the way, get your sack back.
Thank you once again for listening to this week's episode of Shag Maridanoid,
which is now part of the Acast Creator Network.
I'll tell you what other network it's part of.
It's part of the bloody cheering Chris Ramsey up network.
You feel a bit better now. I was honestly really, really down all day.
Again, I wish I'd done it earlier on,
because I'm really cheered up now,
and I'm really happy we've been chatting for a bit,
