Three Bean Salad - Stonehenge

Episode Date: March 6, 2024

Did the druidic architecture firm that designed Stonehenge make their pitch with a scale model made of beans? Were the stones moved halfway across Britain by crabs? (NB on a map the direction of travel is sideways!) Was Stonehenge the location of King Arthur’s stag do? There’s absolutely no way of knowing any of the above as it’s a prehistoric structure (ie built in a zero red tape environment so non-existent record keeping/planning protocols etc). But if there’s one thing that’s never stopped the Beans’ flow of lukewarm banter it’s a complete lack of concrete knowledge. So lie down, think of Albion and enjoy this Stonehenge based episode with thanks to this week’s topic suggester Ian of Stone.With thanks to our editor Laura Grimshaw.Join our PATREON for ad-free episodes and a monthly bonus episode: www.patreon.com/threebeansaladMerch now available here: www.threebeansaladshop.comGet in touch: [e-mail] @beansaladpod

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to series 12. 12. 12. Oh. The big one, too. Collie. Isn't it? And so much has changed.

So much has changed. Between 11 and 12. Yeah. Yeah. Well, Mike's now working with a cinematographer. Yeah. Yeah, Mike. Yeah, Mike.

Yeah, my video looks extraordinary today, doesn't it? It's amazing. Yeah, it's to explain to the listener, Mike's got a kind of JJ Abrams style lens flare. Yeah. On his picture. It looks like a high end sort of like ginormous lizard could easily like barge barge through the wall behind him at any point. Season and it's jaws. Isn't it? You think I'd be an early kill in the JJ Abrams movie?

You think I'd be an early kill? Oh, so shame. Just sort of sheriff's deputy or something like that. Sheriff's deputy. Alarmed angler? Alarmed angler. Yeah, he'd be swallowed up by a huge Kraken. Yeah. That he's called with a fly. Because everyone wants to see that scene at the beginning of the JJ Abrams film, when

that line goes taught. Do they? Yeah, they want to see that. He's got a big one. Oh, it's a big one. I got a kraken by the arse. They don't normally come out mouth first, but it'd be quite nice to see that kraken come out arse first.

Right, arse. Yeah. Variation on a theme. And it's really furious. Then it's really, coming at us first. Right, it's us. Yeah. A bit variation on a theme. And it's really furious. Then it's really, really, really angry. Because that hook's not coming out easily. No. They're barbed. They're barbed.

Because you're just a leisure angler, aren't you? So your plan is to actually put the Kraken back. Oh, ideally. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But try and explain that to a Kraken. Yeah. It just pours while my mate takes a photo. Otherwise, no one's gonna believe me on the end of the jetty.

I don't see fear, Nice. You wouldn't want to to like club a crack into death in front of your niece. Who's with you for the day? She's got to learn though, hasn't she? There's the rub. How to protect herself. And are you licensed to be fishing there for cracker? Oh, well, there we go again. I mean, this is could well be an off season cracker.

And actually, it's very sad because often when in the cracker nets, when people fish for those crackers in nets, they'll often actually end up sweeping up a lot of giant squids, Megalodons. They just end up just discarding. Very wasteful process. Jason Statham stunt doubles. A lot of them go, don't they? There's tons of them at the bottom of the Mississippi, aren't there at the moment? Well most sand is like 0.4%.

Eroded Statham body doubles, let's say. Yeah, that's true, isn't it? I've got some big news, chaps. I do. It's about our old friend, the Hyundai i10. Ooh. She lives! No, what?

She's back. No way. I've leveling you restored her to her previous condition, which was not good. As part of a 12- part Channel 4 mega series. Where you and Paul Bettany lovingly restore a hand I I 10 and receive a visit from from King Charles and the final episode.

That's gonna be massive. As you know, it was just sat on the on the road. Yeah, you were using it as an outside toilet. Just for people, it was just sat on the road. Yeah. You were using it as an outside toilet, just for people that haven't been keeping up. Oh yeah, that was a joke that we made. A fanciful joke that I was shitting in my old ITEN. But I just want to make it clear that wasn't true. It's just been sitting there and I was just looking at it and I thought, no, no.

I am going to pay lots of money to get this fixed for no reason. Oh wow. No way. Yeah. But I mean, so you flushed it, first fixed for no reason. Oh, wow. No way. Yeah. But I mean, say you've flushed it, first of all, presumably. You're doing it power clean. And then take it to the Hyundai Necromancer.

Isn't there a kind of character like Harvey Coyte and Pop Fiction that you can get into just like, take it clean up a Hyundai? Yeah, you want to talk to Hyundai in. It's sort of seven months worth of terms. He'll come and he'll sort it out. Don't ask him any questions. Don't ask him where he's going to put those turds. Don't ask him where he's going to put those turds. And don't ask him where he gets those cleaning products, because a lot of them look like

they're Chinese military. And yeah, maybe the local community centre's suddenly got a turd in crusted ceiling. 40 kilos of turds. They don't know what to do with. It's got turd in crusted ceiling. 40 kilos of turds. It's got 40 kilos. Look at what they don't know what to do with. It's got turd bunting hanging up, totally ruining their weekly quiz. Tunting.

I'm just thinking about it. So statistically, a certain number of people will listen to this as their first episode of 3B and 3D. I know. That's always the worry, isn't it? And that is always the worry because, you know, they're all at sea now. They've got no idea where my high on day 10 is full of

turds. Well, we should send them politely back to the first episode. I think that that is what we should do. I think actually every series you should really recap from from that one in the interim to fully, you know what I mean?

In the same way that I've read the book, June twice. Have you? Yeah. I've never got to the end of way that I've read the book, Dune twice. Have you? Yeah. I've never got to the end of that. I've got quite excited about seeing Dune 2 in the cinema. Me too. I can't wait to see it.

The promo is everywhere, isn't it? We're recording this towards the end of Fairbump. It's everywhere. Zendaya was out with a, did you see that amazing sort of like robot costume with arse windows? It's extraordinary. By the way, this is our new section. It's the red carpet, frock watch. You know, Zendaya was looked absolutely fabulous. And yeah, it was a sort of robot suit, wasn't it? It was kind of

futuristic. It was like sort of the gods of sci-fi. It was kind of mixture between robots and sort of robotic and sort of Greek gods. I felt like she upstage. Shallow may a bit. Oh, she upstage everyone. Yeah. Didn't she? I mean, I mean, you might, I mean, anyone who thought I'm gonna, I'm gonna turn a

few heads tonight. I'm cheese, mate. Yeah. It's all about the robot. Yeah. Cause Shalime was wearing some kind of stupid silver trousers, wasn't he? Was he wearing silver trousers? Yeah.

So he was like halfway to robot. And then she went, no, no, no, no. She committed properly. Yeah. And he looked like a proper plum. Shallow may now come on You can pull off anything. I'm a beautiful plum a chiseled plum perfectly right sugar plum Sleek glossy hair

supple yet firm musculature Take me to the loo of Slender biceps. Pure thoroughbred. Chalamet. Equine tail. Shins of alabaster. Top end monogrammed luggage. And the next strength of a hyena. These are luggsy reprints. A sugarplum that that rotates as part of an ornate old Victorian box and it rotates and sings the most beautiful music you've ever had. Keening for those lost in the Boer War. What are you talking about, Ben? The Hyundai's fixed.

Yeah. Oh, the Hyundai's fixed. I found a man who was willing to do it for some reason, much cheaper than anyone else. Ben, you're such an old romantic, aren't you? You're on. There's no logic behind this decision, it's purely irrational. It's just because you're an absolute old sentimental, aren't you? Well, it's true. You're a big softy. You're a big, big softy.

I don't really need it because it had been replaced by the Saab 93, which now has its own little quirk, which is that you can't use the electric windows if the lights are on. If any mechanics know why that could possibly be the case. Is it a genuine sort of electric limit? Does I mean, if you tell the radio to the lights go off as well, you can't, you can only indicate. Oh, no, we've been indicating manually for a while now. Yeah. So it's lights or air. So if, for example, if someone guffs in the backseat, to clear that out, you

might have to put all the passengers at risk. You could just go to band nightguffs, haven't you? That's a joy. You've got a completely band nightguffs. That's not romantic, is it when you tell someone, or do you want to come for a ride in my Saab? But no, no nightguffs, though. Sorry. No nightguffs. I mean, it's not going to get you a lot of dates. Darling, and, and, and... Darling, I want to guff with you under the stars. Not tonight. Well, okay, if you're going to complain about it, then I'm not being romantic.

What are you doing in your own Saab? Well, you haven't got a Saab, have you? So, we're back where we started. Do you want to get in the Saab or not? If you insist on guffing it, neither. I do have some special bags. I could pass it, just reach in the gloveboxes, special bags, guff bags.

Guff into the bag, please. Swedish cuff bags. A fellow cat litter, I think. And wonderful. Have you been on a road trip then? Well, no, I've just been driving around and just finding out there's little quirks, you know, that make a car so lovable where you can't use the electric windows because the headlights are on and full beam sometimes

doesn't come on. That's good. Well, full beam is mainly something that you forget is on and you have to pan it. You know, you sort of turn it off. You wonder why everyone's saying hello to you from the other side of the road for four hours. And why every lorry you go past has then shortly crashed into the side of the road as you've gone past it. But anyway, don't get me on full beam. Or actually do. Right, let's talk about full beam, guys.

Full beam is a good name for a podcast. Full beam with Henry Packett. Yeah. Well, the BBC shines a bit of a light on something. The mainstream media has a candle. Okay. I've got full beam. Let's find out the actual truth.

Yeah. You know the actor who plays Kenneth Branagh? Yeah, Jason Statham. Yeah. Jason Statham, yeah, has been playing Kenneth Branagh. You know, I've got certain actors, right? Who I always struggle to remember their names. Kenneth Branagh is actually one of them. But I've come up with a mnemonic recently. Oh, yeah. Do you remember all actors' names?

Sounds like a spectacular waste of time. In the information age. This is what I've been doing in the break. I've come up with a mononomic, right? Four. There are certain actors, and I always forget their names. And guess what? I don't anymore. And I've only got, I've got this two so far that I've worked into this.

Hi, I'm Henry Packer. And you two, you two can be on full beam like me. For just 79, 99 a month. You can remember some actor's names that you previously struggled to remember. Yeah. Sure, maybe you're happy going around with dipped headlights remembering some actors every now and then.

Or maybe you've got your fog lights on. You remember all the actors all the time. It's too much. Well, why not go with the Henry Packer package? That's right, full beam. Remember the actors when you want, if you want, how you want? Why you want? Why you want? And for only 79 99 per month, you also get my protein powder. My protein powder.

Made of ground up beaks. Harness the power of beaks. Never seen an unfit bird, do you? Tied of all the bloody legal loopholes you have to get around to find grind burrowing beaks at home. It's not worth it. You have to inform the council. You have to inform Chris Packham. You have to inform the estate of Biloddy. Who's very much alive?

And Biloddy. It's not worth it. I've got an offshore beak manufacturing plant. Oh, yes, I've got a good monoc, right? So there's two actors I used to always forget. And I'm just thinking I might have to add Kenneth Branagh to this. Because he's one I sometimes forget as well. I'm gonna prove to you how well this monoc works. Yeah, Hugh Bonneville, Jean Hackman, and

Kenneth Branagh. And Kenneth Branagh. Hang on, so is the mnemonic just their names? I used to always forget the name of Hugh Bonneville. I used to always forget the name of Hugh Bonneville. But then I learned the mnemonic saying the words Hugh Bonneville. And now I can remember Hugh Bonneville. That was before I discovered beak powder. But shouldn't it be like, to remember Hugh Bonneville, Gene Hackman, it should be like Henry Byes, good hay.

Oh, that's quite good. Henry Byes, good hay. Hugh Bonneville, Gene Hackman. And mine is a visual one. Because visuals is the best way to remember things, I think, if you can tie a visual thing to it. Smell apparently is the best. By doing what Hugh Bonneville smells like smells like? Pete. Pete Townsend. Exactly the same as

Pete Townsend. Who in turn smells of underripe mangoes? The way I remember it, Hubanaville is, I picture him, because I can picture his face. No problem. I can picture his name. No. He's wearing a name badge? I picture him. He's got a lanyard. He's got... I picture him nibbling away on a large dark chocolate bar. A Bourneville.

A Bourneville chocolate bar. Yeah. Hugh Bourneville. I know he's not called Hugh Bourneville, but by that point, it's a small leap to Bourneville. You've got no problem with the hue bit. For some reason the hue... I think once I've got Bourneville, Bonneville, I'm there, Hue Bonneville. Now pan down the chocolate a bit further down. Someone's eating the chocolate from the other end of the bar.

Gene Hackman on his knees, trying to race up the chocolate bar. Someone is hacking the chocolate down the other end. Hacking a little side. It's Gene Hackman. Now, I know that sounds ludicrous, but it genuinely works. I will never forget you, Bonneville, and Gene Hackman's names ever again. And it's really handy if you want to chat about the French connection, if you want to chat about Downton, etc. So how are you adding Brannarin? So Brannar, could he be branding Gene Hackman's arse? He could be.

It's your mind scape. It's my mind scape. So if I'm talking about Poirot, the recent Poirot films, all I have to do is remember Hubonville, He's Ink the Bourneville, it's getting Hacksway by Gene Hackman. Hackman's arse is being branded by Kenneth Branar. Right. I mean, there might be a more simple way of doing it. But I very much doubt it. Let's turn on the bean machine, please. This week's topic as sent in by Ian from Stone.

Thank you, Ian. Don't know where Stone is. No, I don't know where Stone is. I've looked it up. It's a market town and civil parish in Staffordshire. you, Ian. Don't know where Stone is. No, I don't know where Stone is. I've looked it up. It's a market town and civil parish in Staffordshire. Oh, wow. And the topic that Ian has entered into the bean machine by going to enter the bean machine dot boats. Oh, yes. Good reminder. Why is it called dot boats again?

It was just a cheap domain name. So who is it normally for people for boats? Is it dot boats? Who normally uses it? Good question. I don't know if it've ever come across another dot boats website. No, to be any website that's to do with seaworthy vessels in the plural. Well, I think if they're seaworthy, they'd probably go for something more trustworthy, like dot com, wouldn't they? Dot boats. I'm not going to buy a boat from anyone called boats dot boats.

It's not happening. Come and explore the Arctic in a genuinely safe vessel and bring your family to at Arctic fun dot boats. Yeah. No, it might actually might just visit. I might just visit the chill turns this year. Chilton's.com. With Chilton's.hills.

I was just having a bit of fun really, Henry, when I bought that boat. Okay, lovely. Well, it's really lovely stuff. It's a bit shonky, actually. If someone sends it to you as a link and you click on it, it

doesn't open for some reason. But if you type it in, you have to manually type it in and it does work. I'm not sure the dot boats infrastructure is that great. One of the great regrets I have to do with the internet is that things called dot gov is actually spelled dot gov.

It's so annoying, isn't it? There's no way around it. Why is that a regret? You're not responsible for that, though, are you? It's not a regret. Well, no, of course. No, you're right. Yeah, I wasn't responsible for that.

Yeah, yeah, of course. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, no, I don't control the web and haven't always controlled it. No. And I have something seen in the same room as Timothy Berners-Lee and probably, yeah, at the same time, probably, yeah. And it's a coincidence that during the Olympics opening ceremony, I happened to also be heading towards the Olympics with blueprints for appearing out of a large box. And Mike Oldfield. With Mike Oldfield.

Did Tim Berners-Lee come out of a box? We came out for something. He was suddenly there. But he wasn't he just sort of standing there looking like a bit of a sort of spare part in the middle of the percussion section or something? Was he behind a computer tapping away? I think we're trying to Google how to get to the Olympic ceremony. Didn't realize he was actually there. It was a weird moment because it was like the world of things representing things

change because suddenly had Timothy Berners-Lee playing Timothy Berners-Lee. Yeah. Whereas Branagh was playing Isntbaad Kingdom Brunel. Was he? It was. Yeah. Yeah, I'd forgotten that. And Jason Statham was playing that majesty. He was playing the Clifton suspension bridge.

He was clean the cliff suspension bridge. Yeah. And actually, the director said, to be honest, if anything, make you actually a little bit more stiff than the actual bridge. Huh. What? Yeah. The bridge has actually got a bit more heart than the performance you're giving Jason. Yeah. Just slagging off Jason, are we?

Who did play the Queen? The Queen. The Queen. The Queen. All stand for the King! We're entering the Regal Zone. Off with their heads! On with the show. Listen up to the naves and the shopkeepers. Bring me more advice. The regal zone. No, she didn't. She jumped out of an airplane. She jumped out

of a helicopter, didn't she? Yeah. Yeah, well, she, yeah, she dropped out of a helicopter. I think it's very important if you're perishing ever helicopter not to jump Rule number one say Spray the stadium was minced queen something which uncle was in the accolade the hard way In inventor of the helicopter diving board. Yes, that's right. Yeah. Oh look to celebrate the Olympics. They've done a a Bolognese rain. To represent Britain's thriving Italian restaurant scene. Please nobody.

If you are covered as a spatch of Bolognese rain, please do take the Bolognese rain chunks to Westminster Abbey in Dirt. Thank you. We realise that this is a very difficult time for all of you, it's been extremely traumatic, but we are legally bound to tell you that you can still have a free Limoncello. Sebastian Cowell will be coming round with the Limoncello bottle and shot glasses. But please, if your spouse refuses it, you are not allowed the second one. It's just one Limoncello purpose, please.

I'm looking at you, Duncan Goodhue. Right. I'm actually going to get myself in your head, but... Well, hello, he did a bald joking, which he's allowed to do. I'm allowed to do Ben. It happens. Have you no loyalty to your bald kid? No, I'll sort it out with Duncan on the WhatsApp group later on.

OK, so this week's topic, I sent in by Ian from Stone is? Yes. Thank you, Ian. Stonehenge. Is it really? Hang on. Is that a self pun? So what's going on with Ian? I think we understand Ian's thought process.

Where does he get his ideas? Well, thanks, Ian, for Ian from stone. Is stone anywhere near Stonehenge? No, it's in Staffordshire. Staffordshire, not really. Okay. And Stonehenge, of course, is in Wiltshire. Wiltshire. Wiltshire. Stonehenge is exactly as the crow flies halfway between where you are Henry and where I am now.

Really? Yeah. It's equidistant. It is. Yeah. And that is the power of this podcast. Yes. And that's why. Maybe that means we're on a lay life. But they're demolishing Stonehenge, and generally, they've just announced,

finally, the Tories have got their way. And they're going to demolish it and turn it into a bypass, build another lane on the A303. They thought what they're going to do finally? They're going to finally do it. A massive tunnel underneath it, I think. Are they all doing that, are they? Yeah, I mean, it's literally in the news yesterday, I think. Because it was green lit and then red lit and then green lit again. There was an encampment of protesters very nearby.

Like they were holding up the works a bit and they disappeared. Because I drive past that all the time when know yo yo between hither and liver. Twix exeter and london right and they cleared them out but i was a bit worried about them the other day i wanted. Where they've gone why they've gone where the sinister forces at work. sent them back up into space. Oh, maybe. I hope so. Using its cosmic power. Yeah. A hen's rapture.

Yeah. All right, Mr. Sinek. Maybe there's more to this world than exists in in Bonjimin's spreadsheets. Yeah. Who's being cynical? I think Henry Waters wasn't really listening. He wasn't really listening and then went on the attack.

Still things that happens with kind of like rescue dogs and stuff. They read the wrong signals. Paulie treated XL bullies and me. I think that means that you have to be taken away now and destroyed, Henry. I'm just dreadfully sorry. And I didn't even have the humanely claws, actually. Unfortunately, we never got around to sorting out the humanely claws. So you can literally destroy me how you want.

Yeah, it's just elbow, you do a canal. It's Balne's rain time, isn't it? It's Balne's rain. Yeah, they might see it, they're going to do Balne's fog. No, no, no, because you were implying that, oh, maybe, but you know, Stonehenge has shot them up to space as if assuming it can't actually do that. I was saying it can do that. I was being the opposite of what you were saying.

Oh, you weren't being you were being sarcastic. Well, well, no. Now, for me, Stonehenge is one of those monuments where let's be we're gonna have to, you know, be steely eyed about this. I probably I'm gonna say I'm gonna go full beam. I'm going full beam. Okay, okay. I'm going full beam on Stonehenge. Yeah, certain journalists, you know, some of you, some of your journalistic sources will just shine a mag light at something and say it's the truth. Oh, actually, if

any seen a little bit of it, I'll go full beam. Yeah. Other old users might not like that because they can't deal with full beam because I've other old users might not like that, because they can't deal with full beam because forgotten to get my lights going around the corner. Yeah. Full beam. And what are you seeing in your full beam? Well, full beam on stonehenge is it's not it's it's not made the seven wonders of the world. Let's just start with that. Has it?

Well, has it? I don't think so, mate. What about modern wonders? It's definitely not a modern wonder. I mean, the new bypass that goes through, I'll have a chance. So what are the, what are the wonders of the world? The hanging gardens of Babylon. Yeah. Which colossus of roads.

The pyramids at Giza. Yeah. Is it the big Ikea in Brent Cross? Yeah. It's just because of the sheer size of the vats of meatballs that they have in the cafeteria there. It is Babylonian in scale. So the Seven Ones were great. Yeah, Pyramids. The Statue of Zeus at Olympia. Is Olympia even still? There we go. There is a hill they say is Olympia, isn't there? Sort of tabletop mountain type

thing. Temple of Artemis Ephesus, Morsoleum at Halicarnassus. This is coming out of the top of your head, is it, Henry? This is all the top of my head. Lighthouse of Alexandria. So it's not... What is its status as a world, as a world sort of heritage monument? It's up there.

Would you cross the world to see it bearing in mind, most British people on most days drive past it and choose not to stop. Well, no, they choose to nearly stop. I mean, that's part of the problem is because the traffic grinds to a halt. People slow down a bit. Not enough to visit the visitors' center. Yeah, it's UNESCO heritage site, so they will slow down a bit for it. So I've lived within an hour and a half's drive of it all my life. Yeah. Okay. Never been never seen it

Never have my eyes laid upon the stones. Really? Yeah. It's an opposite of restraining order, isn't it? Which is you have to live within one and a half miles circumference of stone and You have to I'm spiritually tethered to it and on the semisolsis the sun shines out of my ass And just the rest of the year, you think it does? Well, I possibly have something which is worse that I have driven past it, I would say probably 14,000 times, but I have never diverted to the little car park nearby and actually stopped and wandered around it. Probably no one has driven past it as much as you might, hasn't it? Have they?

Because that is absolutely your commuter sort of path. Yeah, very much so. So you've literally, you've never stopped? I've never ever gone down to the road. Because I don't know why. I see it from the side of the road and it's sort of like... It's quite good, yeah. I know that if I was to do it, I would be doing it to tick a box. And it might be magical and mystical and wonderful.

Perhaps I'd have some kind of spiritual epiphany, if no idea. Maybe you'd have a spiritual epiphany seeing the A303 from that vantage. Now you're talking. Okay, now you're speaking my language, Ben. Okay, I'm in. Let's just call it the A303 visitor center with added hench. There we go. That's how you draw them in. Because the thing is, every American who comes to British shores,

yeah, goes to Stonehenge. Do they? Yeah. Is it a proper big deal? Yeah. That's why I'm wondering. There are always people there, come rain or shine. There are always people milling around, wandering around it.

But I don't think any British people go to Stonehenge unless you're kind of into the slightly more mystical side. Some people are into that. Proper sort of pagan. Yeah, Druidic pagan-y stuff. Yeah. Yeah. Hobbit bullshit. We're going to get emails, Henry. Potentially enormously offensive. Yeah. Minority religious group. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. I retract that. Yeah. Let's call it. Mordor gubbins.

No, pagan, isn't it pagan? Ism, pagan, pre coaster, chucking ism on it, pagan paganism, isn't, isn't it? Precosterism. It's precosterism. It's precosterism. It's, it's harking back to a time when old white men with what long white robes had access to large slabs of stone. Yeah. And they didn't mind who knew it. They didn't mind who knew it. Some of the stones, of course, are from Campocryan, Wales. People are quite proud

of that for some reason. I mean, can I say something? When that is one of the first things to be said of interest about something, which is where the stones are from, you haven't grabbed me. Do you know what I mean? Even if it's an extraordinary distance. No one goes to the pyramids and gives a shit where their stones are from. They just load to them in a big triangle. They look like a massive toe-blow and it's fucking amazing. But aren't those people awestruck by how impressive it was that they got those stones

up there in the first place without a giant crate? Have you heard of the A... It's literally next to the A road. Have you not heard of Norbert Dendrosangle? Chief Druid, 3000 BC. Yeah, you think that's a normal non- Druid name, do you, Norbert Dentress Angle? Yeah. Of course he's a Druid. But I don't think they know how they transported the stones.

That's the mystery, isn't it? There are things that aren't known. Does that necessarily mean they're a mystery? For example, I don't know... You don't know what Kenneth Branagh's called. A lot of the time. Is that a mystery? I saw a dead rat the size of a small labrador. A couple of months ago. Is that a mystery? What sort of, yeah. Yeah, I mean, that's quite a good one. Yeah, that's a bad example. But that is quite yeah. Why is that

right? So big? How is it so big? Is it the King rat? Could be the king rat. In which case I had a window there to become King rat myself and I didn't take it. All you have to do is eat its liver. And make myself the mittens of power from its pelt. I promise to give Sucker to its 4,000 wives and husbands. Now I think if you go there now, you can't touch them, can you? No, yeah, it's ringed off, I think.

Yeah. And it's very controlled. There is a specific car park, visitor centre area, like walk around at Clockwise and all that business I think is going on, is what I can tell. You see, drive there, you get to the car park, you've got to... It's sort of like the opposite of the Siren song, isn't it? For people that drive past, it's this thing going, don't bother stopping. Maybe slow down a bit at most.

Slow down a bit, but just don't bother pulling in. Don't bark at your children that it's there on the right if they turn right. Now it's now it's now it's now get off your phones and look at the place. Five thousand years off for God's sake, let's look at the bloody thing. When you go in, at what point? Because obviously it's a story, isn't it? Right? And any story, you hold back as long as possible,

your firecracker moment. Yeah. How do you know? I mean, the anecdotes Henry's told over the years on this podcast. So many firecracker moments we all fondly remember. You've been asked to put together a compendium of your anecdotes in print haven't you, and the title is firecracker moments we all fondly remember. You've been asked to put together a compendium of your anecdotes in print. Have you caught and the title is firecracker? I seem to remember firecracker with full beam Henry Packett.

published by full beam. Full beam is a substitute of alfacas. Yeah. So at what point they tell you the absolute dynamite fact that the stone is from Pembrokeshire, because that's the killer, isn't it? Do you tell them that? Because you have to park, you have to go around clockwise, you can't touch the stone. So do you think they tell you halfway through or maybe an actor is playing a druid, he tells you? I think we probably have someone there whose job is to gauge at what point disappointment is setting in on the person's face.

And then you can boost them with the temperature stones back. Yeah. And it's, you know, they are counseled to start it with a phrase, did you know so that everyone can say, yes, yes, I did know that already. Yes. Yes. Yes. Everyone knows that. I think they used to have it with an actor. So you'd have someone playing a druid stabbing a virgin. And as the virgin gargled her death throw last words last words would be, Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Yeah. Well, I'm quite sure how they can tell all they can't know, but that's what else.

There's general consensus about Windsor, but the stone that I'm lying on was from Pembroke Ship. Almost certainly. I only did this to get my juke of a Dibro Bronser what? I'm really hoping to get into a red brick in the middle of it. That's a thing. I'm only doing this because I can't get any other work any more now because I'm Liz Truss. Oh my god.

30% of cheese comes from Europe or something. I think we've stonehenged right. It's one of those things where it's impressive bearing in mind the limitations of when it was created at the time. So once you bear all that in mind, so you have to load up the viewer with a lot of information about how difficult it was to get things from Penbrookshire. Right. And if you're comparing it with, say, the inner workings of a toaster, actually. Exactly. Which is really impressive.

Certainly a dual-it one. You know, one of the really posh ones. Oh. Yeah. Yeah. I've got a dual-it at the moment. Have you? All right.

Yes. Someone's doing all right. But it's got one little problem. It doesn't stop toasting. It's an infinite oaster. Even once you've taken the bread out. You've been really badly upsold there, haven't you? The John Lewis has seen you coming a bloody mile off. That's all we're coming on mile off. And just for another £4,000, we can give you, we upgrade you to the infinity toast.

Infinite oaster, Mardal. It's a hot, fist-sized chunk of uranium in your flat at all times. Basically, someone... Look, the guy who worked in the Toaster Department at John Lewis had done a deal with the devil about 15 years ago, and he thought he would never get this toaster off his hands, but he's managed it with me. I finally got that cursed toaster off my hands! He can finally have his vengeance upon bread. No, so I have to unplug it to turn it off. It just keeps manage it with me. I finally got that cursed toaster off my hands. He can finally have his vengeance upon bread.

So I have to unplug it to turn it off. It just keeps toasting, baby. I used to live in a house where one of the people I shared the house with worked on, I think it was Saturday Kitchen, one of those like morning-y chef programs. And at the end of one series of it, she brought home the toaster from the set and it became our toaster. So we had a famous BBC One Satellite Morning Prime Time toaster that had been used by the likes of Carol Decker from Topow and other celebrities. Wow. The DNA profile on that toaster presser. You could probably, we can create our own Greg Wallace. We don't need the actual one anymore. You've got it all, Ben.

You could recreate Greg Wallace, but with the singing pipes of Tupel. You could recreate all kinds of people. You could recreate Cubonaville, Kenneth Branagh, Gene Hackman. He did it, but did he get them the right way round? No, I did not go the wrong way round. I've got Branagh in the hacking position that makes no sense. Of course, it'll be an awkward moment if it ever went to court.

Could it go to court this year, this case? What, if you fashion a new Greg Wallace from DNA Materials? I reckon. Can Greg Wallace sue himself in that? I reckon they'd be happy to take that on and establish a precedent, sure. It'd be awkward though, wouldn't it, at the moment when the expert has to say, all those courses, it's slightly strange, isn't it? The DNA you retrieved from the inside of this toast, it was Greg Wallace's penis DNA.

Then both Greg Wallace's would have to sidle out of the court court remote quickly. Stonehenge. It's a mystery, isn't it? As to what it was for? Well, that's the big question. Yeah. Is it a clock or something? I do what? Putting the clock back in an hour would have been an absolute mass of pain in the ass, wouldn't it? And that's the end of today's podcast. Got to shift all the stones back by now.

Bloody hell. podcast. Got to shift all the stones back by now. Blah blah blah. Okay, time to read your emails. When you send an email, you must give thanks to the postmasters that came before. Good morning, Postmaster! Anything for me? Just some old shit. When you send an email, this represents progress, like robot, shoeing a horse. Take me, your horse. My beautiful horse! Thank you to everyone who's emailed 3BeanSaladPod at gmail.com, Nick did so, and writes,

Dear Beans, I thought I'd share this awkward encounter with you. I went to the pub to see some friends. One of them had lost a lot of weight and was looking fairly hench. I complimented him and he replied, Thanks, I've been on a bit of a beefcake journey. Other people in this situation might have gone in with a furtive pompadou and hoped for the best. Not me though. I went full in with the path to beauty is prolapse hemorrhoids. Needless to say, it was a completely coincidental use of beefcake journey and none of them have fellow bean enthusiasts. And I have a new nickname, all the best, Nick. Oh, Nick. What's his nickname, prolapse hemorrhoids? Sounds like it.

I would assume yes. No, dear. Sorry, Nick. It's a cautionary tale, isn't it? It is a cautionary tale. I've got some good news by the in terms of the big beef cape journey. If you want an update, yes, please. Jingle. Oh, oh, oh, yeah. Come on, mate. Yes. I'm in agony. And I absolutely love this. More pain, crunch it, push it, flex it, more pain, smash it, sprain it. Whee!

The path to beauty is prolapsed hemorrhoids. Ah! Henry's Beef Gague Journey. And I'm gonna say play the jingle for the last time. Because... You're dying tomorrow. The beef is spoiling. No, no, no.

It's great news. Okay. I've done it. I've, um, I've completed the journey. So it's, I've done it. Yeah. I've, I've, I've, you just beefcake present now. I've arrived at beefcake.

Um, I'm at the peak. I'm at the summit of a huge beef mountain with my own body and I'm looking down on the world. And yeah, so I've completed the journey. So I'm, you're a kind of beefhenge. I'm a one man beefhenge. I've traveled all the way from Pembrokes today. What's that? Did you find a shortcut? What's that? Did you find a shortcut? Oh, no, I have actually.

Yes, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've cancelled my gym membership. I did it guys. I see. Okay. Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. Now we're getting to it. So I've arrived at the end of, of, of, of, um, I've completed it.

So yeah. Anyway, that's a, it's, um, it's a've completed it. So yeah. Anyway, it's a good new story. The description is over. It's a good news story. It's not one of those, because you hear about these sad, sad, opposite journeys that never end, people constantly going, going to the gym forever, the journey that they didn't have the commitment to actually get off the bloody train. And you know, they they just keep going. They just keep

going on that. That's not a journey. That's a sentence. I mean, that's a sentence. I don't know. That's a sort of prison sentence. I know. I finished the journey. I had the way with all to do it. Got to my destination. Got off. Congratulations. Thank you very much. Well done. Next emails from Joe. Dear beans, during your circus episode, I was interested to hear a listener types their dad for acting work work after said dad had appeared as Archimedes in Indiana Jones and the Dive of Destiny. Indeed. Okay, I didn't really get any of that except for how on earth are all those words then having the same sentence? It all ends on the time. You were very much there at the time and pivoted all of the conversation.

But it seems extraordinary, because I've taken all the nouns out of that sentence. So I didn't hear the verbs. Okay, so you got the back bone of it. You got just the verbs. I've just got the nouns. I've got dads. There was two dads. You've just got the nouns. All I've got is the nouns. Okay,. I've just got the nouns. I've got dads. There was two dads. You've just got the nouns. All I've got is the nouns.

Okay, so you've just got the sort of viscera, really. I've just got the viscera. I've got the sac of viscera. I'd be delighted to hear. So now and only, it sounds like this, Mike, just to give you a sense of what Henry's hearing. Circus listener, dad, work, dad, Archimedes, Indiana Jones and the Dive Destiny. And you were including proper nouns, I assume. Yes. Yes. So you got something to hold on to. Yeah, you have the proper nouns in there. Yeah. So that's exactly what I heard, Ben.

So basically, that's like I've gone to a snout to tell restaurant I've got a plate of awful. And I'd be, I need to work out where the farm is. restaurant, I've got a plate of awful. And I'd be, I need to work out where the farm is. There's no further clues. But Ben, can you, can you give me just the verbs now? Okay. Oh, that's gonna be hard. Was, here, tout, said, appeared... So... appeared. A dad has been hanging around on the set of the Dile of Destiny touting another dad.

To people on their way in and out of the set. You need to build Archimedes into that somewhere as well. I wouldn't say that to the end. I'd work him in early days of how's he let me do the sentence again, Henry, for you, but just saying, do it our comedies ready? Okay, okay. Our comedies. You started to bring together touting another dad around trying to decide the set of the production of Dara destiny. outside the set of the production of Darlath Destiny. And the whole thing is part of a sinister government project, known only as the Archimedes Project.

Hmm, okay. So what is it? Well, you remember, Henry, somebody emailed in to say that we'd been talking about Indiana Jones and the Darlath Destiny and the character of Archimedes within it, and they emailed to say that their dad had played Archimies in that movie. That's right. I tell you what, it does, you listen to them all together.

And it's clear as day. This is a much better system. Yeah. And they also, you will remember, offered a pompadour discount on their acting. Oh yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, brilliant. Services.

So Joe writes and maybe listen to all of the words in this sentence, Henry. Okay. You see, I too have a dad who acts. Most notably in recent years he has secured occasional work as a double for Michael Keaton. Wow. Blimey. He's played Michael Keaton in bits of the movie that Michael Keaton can't be bothered to do several times. To speak to his credentials, I once met the producer of Tim Burton's remake of Dumbo,

who said, and I quote, Everyone on set is talking about how much your dad looks like Michael Keaton. But it's not a coincidence. Well it is a coincidence. No, it's not. I mean, because they're all going, why does the guy here look exactly like Michael Keaton? No, that's why he's there. He's very much like that.

Anyway, Joe writes, With this in mind, I'd also like to make an offer to casting directors who happen to be three-bean-solid listeners. If you'd like an actor who looks quite a bit like Michael Keaton from a distance, please do get in touch, and a pompadou discount can be arranged. So, to work that out into the equity standard contracts? I only had Keaton in arranged, I'm afraid. So, I don't know why that's like this. Part of the problem is that you're not actually listening.

Because we've been recording for a while now, you haven't had any snacks. We were just to your credit. I'm hearing, but I'm not listening. So, I'm only getting through what my brain wants. That's the stuff I'm getting through at the moment. All it wants was Keaton and arranged. Must be quite tough. You're being an actor. And looking like Michael Keaton, but but you don't want Michael Keaton roles. But like, because they'd always be looking at you going, Well, we could get Michael Keaton

is for this, rather than this guy looks like Michael Keaton. It's a really tough one, isn't it? So, but on the other hand, he has managed to get those jobs playing Michael Keaton. So yeah, we've now got on our books on the kind of three bean salad. Yeah. Pompidou Discounted Books in the roster. Yeah, a character who's very much able to play our comedies. Yeah. And the Michael Keaton look like so.

And if you say Pompidou to them, they'll offer their acting services at a discounted rate 15% off. Yeah, bloody hell considering you're already playing B side Keaton rates as it is yeah pretty good deal pretty good Sam emails. This this makes reference to something that I think we talked about in a patron episode which is that I've started eating seeds every morning. That's right yeah which is helped my gut health no Yeah, I would still stand by it seeds and nuts It's the way to go right and you you now have the skeletal strength of a sparrow as well, don't you? Could be crushed in the palm of a child's hand Anyway, Sam as he meld and said your seed-based breakfast idea has given me chronic diarrhea

Just the idea or is it you've been doing it your seed-based breakfast idea has given me chronic diarrhea. Just the idea or has it been doing it? The idea has disgusted him so much. He had to run to the toilet. Thought-purgitives from Bonjamin Partridge. Well, you've got to... But when you think about it, birds have constant diarrhea, don't they? You never get a solid, curled-out stool hanging on your your head. Landing on your head, do you? You get diarrhea.

So, makes sense. Eat like a bird, shit like a bird. Finally, Melvin Patrick from Cardiff. On the topic of politicians that we have seen unclothed, after somebody emailed in to say they'd been in a sauna with Andy Burnham. Yes. Anyway, Patrick emails and says, I once got changed next to the former leader of the opposition, Ed Miliband at the Hampstead Men's Swimming Pond. Nice.

He's incredibly ripped. Is he really? So Ed, Ed or what's the other one called? David. I need to get them on. Oh. I need to get them on. That's going to be quite hard if there's two of them.

Especially because you mostly seem to do a shoe first names. You them. Especially because you mostly seem to a shoe first names that you go straight to the surname. I do a shoe first names. Which is one that ate the bacon sandwich? Ed Miliband. He's the one that's ripped. Yeah, that's what he's saying. Wow.

We've also had an email from James saying Dear Beans, a friend of mine once spent time with Kofi Annan in a hot tub. That is premium stuff, that is. The friend worked for some sort of nefarious multinational and the bathing took place at a COP climate change summit. I appreciate this all feels a bit on the no satire-wise, but there we go. It's time to pay the ferryman Patreon.com. 4 slash 3 beats salad. Okay, thank you to everyone who signed up on our Patreon.

Thank you. Thank you very much. In recent times, me and Henry have recorded a few film related podcasts called Film Corner. Yeah. Yes, which I've not turned up to either of these. No, you've been busy. We've been invited, but Exclusives.

I've been dying. Famed a busy diary. Yeah. Anyway, if you want to get access to bonus episodes, Henry talking about films and various other things. The whole Film Corner back catalog is there, isn't it at the moment? Three episodes. Is it three? We've talked about which films various other things. The whole film cornerback catalog is there, isn't it at the moment? Three episodes. Is it three?

We've talked about, which films have we talked about? We've talked about The Heron and the Boy. The Boy and the Heron. You couldn't call it The Heron and the Boy, Ben. By the time you've got Heron, who cares about a boy? It's The Boy and the Heron. You've got to save the... Okay.

...to the best of the last, yeah? Jason Statham's The Beekeeper. That's right. Gray movie. And Paul Geomattie's The Holdovers. But if you're not into that, there is heaps of other stuff, isn't there? There's loads of three bean content. There is.

So check out patreon.com. Thanks for those of you who've done that already. If you sign up at the Sean Bean tier, you get a shout out from Mike from the Sean Bean Lounge where Mike was last night. Oh yeah. He better was. It was pretty raucous, wasn't it? Yeah, it was a big one. It was the old, um, throw a hole punch as far as you can competition. It certainly was. Thank you, Ben. And here's my report.

It was the old throw a hole punch as far as you can competition last night at the Sean Bean Lounge, which started in the traditional manner with John Pitt Yardley lusing a German forehole through the reinforced glass of Sean Bean's private intra-lounge Rhymens. Simon T.W. was used to clear the remaining shards of glass at the window edges and the ritual hole punch pre-looting was afoot. Amanda Gawley set an early strong benchmark by hurling a portable three-hola the length of 24.5 Lee Wolfendons. Laura Crossley pointed out that measuring half a Lee Wolfendon hadn't really required

his hemi section by Jamie Lang, and proceedings were paused so that Lee Wolfendons' top half could be stuffed and mounted on a balustrade by Hannah Wiles, and his lower half turned into an umbrella stand by Jim Kay. They followed a spat about what units to measure the hole puncher tosses in now, which only cooled off when Erika Carpenter had a lightning in a bottle moment and created a new system in honour of the occasion, namely the bean scale, in which the length of one bean unit is precisely the distance the average kidney bean would move in a decent gust of wind on a theoretically frictionless surface. Scores as follows.

P. Alexander long-reached Single Hole, 38 B N units. Colin Cooper, Heavy Duty 2 Hole, 12 B N units. Jess and Joe, Eilert's Punch Press, 1742 B N units. Russell Zwicka, Ovine-Holingpinsa, 27 B N units. Dave Silcoe, Electric 3-Holler, 0.5 B N units. Dan Mould, Clairs Accessories in association with Rhyman's patented multi-teenager all-at-once or one-at-a-time earlobe hole puncher with gyroscopic steadying function for use on the top floor of a moving double-decker bus, 3 Bean Units Alex Jarvis, 80-style British Rail ticket puncher, minus 48 Bean Units Andy Coxson's discus-style toss of a spiral punch comb binder went wide of the course

and obliterated Chris V and Fred Holden's Game of Rummy Cub to the Death, which they refused to restart until someone reminded them what they were arguing about in the first place. Thomas Owen suggested it was about the name of the bassist from Death Leopard, while Chris Draper thought it was about whether or not a human being touching a baby bird would lead it to being abandoned by its mother. While that was going on, Neil Greggson claimed to have thrown a quadro punch with Chad Collector a record breaking 6.5 kilo bean units, but no one saw it, but he promises it was true. Thanks all Okay, that's the end of the show. We'll just finish off with a version of our theme tune

Sent in by one of you lots. Okay, so this is from Nick Thank you, Nick. Dear beans It may be due to my being a professional bass player that I am particularly sensitive to this almost sarcastically close to undetectable detail, but I feel compelled to offer my version of your theme tune on the following grounds. All of the list of submissions played thus far, even the most otherwise virtuosic, stray from the genius of the original in one crucial way. The harmony moves from chords 4 and 5 respectively following the triads of the melody. This would be all well and good, were it not for the fact that the bass line of the original clearly implies chord 1 throughout. This transgression in my mind robs the theme of the subtle tension

and release that sets it squarely among the great compositional achievements of the last 100 years. And anyone who claims that's hyperbole can help themselves to a side salad of fuck you. You talk about that central premise of your jingle all the time, didn't you, Ben? This is very much the basis. This way you start with a starting idea, wasn't it? Yeah. That central tension. Can I say finally, I'm, yeah, you know, when you've had a thought and but no quite, you haven't quite had the words for it, but I have had that. I had that. I've had exactly

that feeling about the thing. You haven't quite had the words for it, but I have had that, I've had exactly that feeling about the thing. Here, it's less the listener may be struggling to conceptualise this difference. I attach a version that demonstrates it by paying homage to the hair metal masterpiece that utilised the same harmonic approach, albeit in a rather more heavy-handed way. Thanks to my friends Tommy on guitar and Dagon drums for helping me honour the great bean maestro. Badantically yours, Nick from Bremen. Brilliant. Yes, please.

Thanks Nick. Here we go. That was a breath of fresh air. Very well. Oh, van Halen style. Nice. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me.

I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me.

I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me.

I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me.

Absolutely incredible. And so begins a long legal battle with the estate of Eddie Van Halen for who owns the, the compositional rights and that particular piece of music. It's Van Halen, isn't it? Jump. Jump. Yeah. Yeah. Well, no, let's say it's 10% Van Halen's jump, 90% free being started theme. Yeah. I'll support you all the way. Beautiful work.

Love that. Thank you. Love it. Brilliant. Thank you.
