Starting point is 00:00:00 I'm not a fan of the game, but I'm not a fan of the game. I'm not a fan of the game, but I'm not a fan of the game. I'm not a fan of the game, but I'm not a fan of the game. I'm not a fan of the game, but I'm not a fan of the game. I'm not a fan of the game, but I'm not a and I absolutely love this. More pain. Crunch it, push it, flex it. More pain. Smash it, spray it.
Starting point is 00:00:31 Wait! The path to beauty is pro-lapt hemorrhoids. Aaaaah! Henry's beef gage journey. What the hell is it, though? It might be. Right, okay. Okay, don't go. Okay, take the jingle back. It might be time for a new jingle, actually. You sitting down. Yeah, okay. I've actually had a session. I've actually had a session. Has he actually had a session?
Starting point is 00:01:07 They're saying he's had one session. He's actually had a session. Beefcake journey. It was quite a strong session. Mainly Admin. There's a lot of stuff to talk about at the beginning of a session. The first session, certainly. Some more emails.
Starting point is 00:01:25 Plus, he was ten minutes late. Did he add the ten minutes on at the end? Why worked out the bath how I got home? It had been an hour since the beginning of the session. If you don't include the toilet break in the middle of the session. Beef kick journey. Phase two. Oh, so turning up is phase two is it? Yes it is my... Get off my fucking case man. I've had one freaking session, technically 45 minutes, three colours of a session. So the time I finished my second session I've
Starting point is 00:02:04 done one session and a half or three quartersquarters of a session. So the time has finished, my second session, I've done one session and a half or three quarters of the next session. Reading on our late ju-up for the second session. Increasingly lacklustrum, lack of days a little about turning up for the sessions. And generally speaking, I tend to be on time for the things the first, I do them because then you, but the second time I'll take my foot off the gas a bit
Starting point is 00:02:21 and I'll probably be able to go. Plus because he was late for the first session, we've already set up a culture of lateness in the relationship. Yeah, I think we could be looking at the first ever sort of five minute personal training session by the end of my four. So he was late, he was saying, oh, were you? No, he was late for the first one.
Starting point is 00:02:40 Oh, my. Because he simply had he been boy-crined wolf. Is that what it was? He simply didn't believe that it could be real that you were going to be there. I don't, it could be that. Maybe he wasn't going to come at all and then at the last minute he thought,
Starting point is 00:02:50 I should just check. I should just check it there. He probably won't be, you never know. Yeah. And then he were there. And there was, I mean, it was, there was, I think, there was some energy sapping you're taking place in the, in the email exchange
Starting point is 00:03:03 over the past three weeks. I think that's slightly sapped the energy out of the initial. Some of the urgency had gone. See, yeah. You burned off a honeymoon period in the ether. Yeah, in a way. Yeah. So we were already both quite jaded by the time we got my shorts on.
Starting point is 00:03:18 But you would have been pleased to see that you were alive, surely. Yeah, I mean, that's 99% of what we're doing together, me and him. It is maintaining my longevity. Keeping the show on the road. So from that point of view, it's going quite well. How many minutes stays or weeks of extra life do you think you've bought with your 45 minutes of exercise? Well, that can only work down retrospect on death.
Starting point is 00:03:38 Okay. Based on the estimated initial death. Yes, so the coroner will have to do an estimated initial death, calculate them at the day of my actual death, subtract one from the other. And depending on how the result of that, my personal trainer, well, I suppose that's how many stars they'll get online. I'm not sure how it works. I think, presumably that'll have to feed back to him at some point.
Starting point is 00:04:02 I knew when he first appeared on the call this morning, I didn't want to say anything, but I thought, Yes, gone. Henry is looking absolutely massive. Yeah, mostly. I know. I've really, really, really beefed out. It was an incredible 45 minutes.
Starting point is 00:04:18 Only from the ankles down those. Yes, we're starting from the bottom up. That's what we're going. Those hauntress look strong, I thought. I've got to get your foundations. Yeah, meaty. So I turned it up on time. I had to go, so into the sub basement, I had to go through the pods or something.
Starting point is 00:04:34 I tried to describe them before these sort of plastic tubes. Those sort of verification tubes, who told us about a plastic tube, it's a kind of a threshold between two worlds. The world of beef and the world of the week. What week all them now that yeah, the week, the pletic or the shrimps, the clothes shrimps. So you've gone from the clothes shrimp world into this liminal space and emerged naked and glossy into the... Good and glossy reborn.
Starting point is 00:05:03 Greco-Roman wrestling ring. It's quite tense in the threshold because you don't know if the other side of the plastic tube is going to open. What happens is you put a code and you walk into a plastic tube, opens. Can you picture it? It's an up, down plastic tube. So it's not you'd have to crawl through. It's up, down to crawl up.
Starting point is 00:05:22 Well, they've been for a second of trapped. And you don't know whether or you're going to be rejected and spat back out into the prawn zone. Exactly. I think that can happen. Yeah, there's some sort of scanning takes place of beef potential. Insufficient beef potential. Back to the bottom of the CEO worm. Yeah. Well, then your then your shot straight up into a sort of what the classic shrimp space, so probably like a library or something, went into one of the knowledge zones because it's a different world. There's the beef zones of London and the knowledge zones. So you maybe spatter
Starting point is 00:05:54 up into the take gallery, for example, take modern or into the newly refurbished national portrait gallery. And that's why when you go to the national portrait gallery, you'll see more people coming, you know, if you do stand and you'll see more people coming out of a tube than anywhere else. Or anywhere else. And that's why a lot of people are in gym gear as well, isn't it? That's right.
Starting point is 00:06:15 And they'll have like a rolled up towel under their arm, just, just, spilt, hool down the chins. Yeah. And they'll have a packet of, um, sort of protein, protein nut mix, which they'll sadly place on a bench. No, they'll never need them again. Well, you can't take those into the board right, Gary. Yeah, good to leave them in the door. Exactly. So, yeah, so I was out into the space, sat there, he texted me saying, I'll be there in a bit.
Starting point is 00:06:38 And he said he was going to be five minutes late, he was ten minutes late. I mean, weirdly, I know the tactics. I mean, you can't sort of trick a tricker, has that the phrase? You're initiated. In the art of being late for minutes late. I mean weirdly, I know the tactics. I mean, he can't sort of, you can't trick a tricker, has that the phrase? You're initiated in the art of being late for being late. I'm initiated in the ways of being late. So he did the classic, which is when you're running late and you know full while you're going to be 10 minutes late, you say you're going to be five minutes late. Because by the time you turn up, you're actually no longer 10 minutes late. You're actually only five minutes late for the new deadline, which you've set, which is five minutes late.
Starting point is 00:07:03 Which is what you said you were going to be in the first place for five minutes late. Exactly. So these are all tactics I've used. The other classic one is if you're not going to turn up at all, you say you're in France. Such a bulletproof, excuse that, isn't it? Absolutely. Bulletproof. Well, that was what I used to use when I canceled gigs and stand up as I said.
Starting point is 00:07:24 You know, we talked about that. I've seen you use it. Yeah. I mean, it's an absolutely, I should almost feel I shouldn't share it on the podcast because it's such good information. It's so powerful. If you haven't used to get out of anything, the thinking is, if you just say, I can't, sorry, I can't make it on Thursday, people will say, what, they might say, why not? Or they might say, what are you doing on Thursday? And then the excuse you have might be something where they'll then go, well, you could cancel, you know, you might go, I'm having lunch with Brian. I mean, that's not a good excuse. Brian may.
Starting point is 00:07:53 Brian depends on the Brian, isn't it? In that case, it's Brian may, then it's quite fair. Depends on the Brian. It's all about that. It's all about the Brian. Brian De Palmer. Again, a good one. Blessed.
Starting point is 00:08:04 Brian Borough, the ancient king of Ireland. Old school but still works. Whereas if you say I can't make it because I'm in France, people just, it's too big. It's too late. It's too late and it's too big. People can't the mind of the person you're late for then then moves on to other solutions instantly. The only problem with that is sometimes if you are in France, it's the boy who cried France, which actually happened to be last week because I'd generally knew he was in France. I did have to cancel a few things and I had to tell people I was in France, so I knew for a while they would never believe me that was in
Starting point is 00:08:32 France. So that's the, that's the great off. Today's Ted Talk is from Henry Packard on the art of lateness. Henry, if I could make it for today's Ted influence. Unfortunately, it doesn't get you out of engagements in France, is it? That's the problem. It does have that one floor. It does not work if you're in France. Please, for the love of God, stop doing this if you're already based in France. It simply doesn't work. Now his excuse, interesting, was that he cut off the top of his finger. So he really doesn't want to spend time with you, doesn't he?
Starting point is 00:09:06 Do you think that's his version of I'm in France? I think that's his version of trying to get off the front line of the song, isn't it? He views you as his song. He's trying to get himself a blighty. He had to. He spent the morning running at a dagger trying to... Trying to injure himself. Oh, well, that's the thing I didn't know, you see, because also he had a large prop.
Starting point is 00:09:32 He had a big white, bright white bandage on his finger. Was part of his excuse that he couldn't get into the gym because he couldn't use the fingerprint readers to get into the plastic tube, because he chop off his finger. Was that... All I know is I was thinking it was a real showering as cat of, if this is equally true and I don't, but that's what's great about France,
Starting point is 00:09:54 or big excuses, which is, I'm not bad to have a conversation with someone saying, how'd you get your finger? Did you cut your finger? Show me. And I didn't want any of the guy that yanks off the white bandage to see his fingers actually fine and then has to remove it with my teeth to make the point. Or, no, but, you know, you don't want to be the person that removes it and goes, and
Starting point is 00:10:17 it hits, you know, and sees that it is actually cast, or whatever. You've grammed told of enough wigs that turned out not to be wigs in your past, don't you? Exactly. I've done that so many times. I've yanked so many bids. But it's like, when you say you're in France, that's another key part of the excuse is you say, I'm in France, you don't say I'm going to be in France. You say, I can't make it, I'm in France. No one wants to have a conversation with someone, another human being, challenging them on whether or not they're in France. It's just not a conversation you want to have.
Starting point is 00:10:44 You don't want to say something. Henry, are you really in France? Prove it. Prove it. No one's ever said that to me. Because it's almost degrading for everyone to even go there. It's almost like if he has made up that he's in France, I didn't even want to know. Same with this guy's finger. I was like, he's probably got his finger off. It's a big lie to tell. Also, it's a big lie to buy yourself 10 minutes.
Starting point is 00:11:05 Yeah, that's true. But maybe he's not as adept at this as having. Oh, it's a big lie. Yeah, panicked. People, I should be giving him two drinks. People who aren't used to being late, being late makes them panic, really panicked. Yeah, whereas I'm actually in my element
Starting point is 00:11:18 when it happens. I actually finally feel like I'm in the zone. You're doing what God meant you to do on this earth. Yeah. It was be late. I'm very good at it. Except my one Achilles heel with lateness is I will, no matter what the story is,
Starting point is 00:11:34 no matter how late I will turn up with a piping cup of pret coffee in my hand. And this is well known. I was talking about this yesterday with someone who's, you know, it's just well known that you are late with coffee. I'm late with coffee. Yeah. And I'm late with coffee. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:45 And I'm off on a selection of pastries and I'm perfectly cured, breakfast hands. And some watercolours I've done on route. Of Ren Cathedral somehow. And it can only have been done in person because there's a painting of today's newspaper in that painting as well. So you must have been there.
Starting point is 00:12:05 Today's Britishits-a-D, Brits-a-D today. Or Brits-a-D, Brits-a-D, or J'od-Wee. It was weird that he was late in making excuses. It didn't fit in with what I was kind of helping from from a personal trainer, which would be more like, let's do this, do, do, do, do, do, do, go. Go, go, go, motivation. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:20 It was a bit more like real life kind of. Yeah, if I'd ever went down that route, I think I'd want the personal trainer to be there when I, to have already been, he's already done six hours of exercise before I've got there. He's, exactly. He's slapping the guy before me on the, on the buttocks and, yeah, high-fiving them on the way out,
Starting point is 00:12:37 you know, chalks going everywhere and drops of sweat. Yeah, you know, he's dalking his ass. Yeah, as he's, he's hosing down, so on else is ass. He's creating a talc paste, which is scooping off. And then rubbing into my thighs as a pre-warmer, sort of. Protein, protein, protein, protein, protein. I've actually heard assertion. Has he actually heard assertion?
Starting point is 00:13:09 Has any side one session? Beef Kid Journey. Phase two. So what did he actually do with you in the session? OK. Was it just a tour of the machines? Or did he actually did you crunch it? No, no.
Starting point is 00:13:22 So here's what we did. We did a little bit. We did a little bit of a tour of the machines. We, um, it's a really gross, like, sub-basement world, the gym world in London. It's very much, if this wasn't us in here, it would be rats. It would be a, it would be rat pandemonium. It's like little stairways and little passages all going deeper into little caverns with more and more sweaty sweaty artificial lighting and sort of
Starting point is 00:13:53 sweaty people in corners just sort of groaning. It's quite a sort of dark, it's a strange world. And anyway, so we did one with, he sat me down on a machine, I had to push some bars forwards and backwards. And I thought, and I actually felt good, actually. It was like, I've got, you know, as I've always said, I've got great scaffolding. It just needs to meet hanging on it. You know, I've said that before. And it is a lot of people saying, think about me, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:14:19 It's not an obvious metaphor because I don't think in the real world you ever do see scaffolding with me hanging off it. And think, literally done a good job there. because I don't think in the real world you ever do see scaffolding with me hanging off it and think, they've really done a good job there. You know what, trace people get a bad name, but look, when you see that kind of thing, you think, actually, you know what, you're mad, you're mad, you're mad, you're mad, I'm hanging off that scaffold there. And the resultant crow pockleps around it. And the resultant crow pockleps around it. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Chris Packam was just tweeted, I'm sure the Imperial War Museum has got an old flame throw we can use.
Starting point is 00:15:09 Anyway, point being that, yeah, so I thought it felt quite good. I was like, I'm using my, you meet, I was given this, I was given this mate and I'm, I'm making something of it, it felt quite good, pushing it up and down. And then, so I did it 12 times, and he was like, how is that? And I was like, it's okay. And he went, okay, now let's put some weights on it. Classic.
Starting point is 00:15:32 It was true. I was like, I don't know, I've just been moving on the naked mechanism. Yeah, it was the naked mechanism. Just moving an empty metal tube. It's basically most of the ways of which is taken by the machine that it's attached to. Exactly. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:48 I learned a few little techniques. So one is when he says, so he said, he says, do it 12 times. You do it. Then he says, how was that? And the first time I did it, I said, oh, that was fine. And then he went, okay, oh, that was fine. And then he went, okay, and put more weights on. And then I did it, and I was like, oh, that was really hard.
Starting point is 00:16:10 So we went to the next machine. I was one step ahead. I did it. It was fine. But instead of telling him it was fine, I said, that was actually quite hard. And he didn't add any extra weights on. You already had the system. You already had found a way of getting a personal training and making yourself scrawny or...
Starting point is 00:16:29 And actually, you couldn't make yourself weak and then never seen this happen. There was one point where he gave me an exercise which I wasn't sure if it was taking the piss on us. Because it was just stepping up and down on a sort of little plastic sort of box. Did he just need to make a phone call or something? It feels like it's buying time. Yeah, it's not.
Starting point is 00:16:47 Did you just need to test out the new plastic box he bought? Well, I think it was, it might have been during that point where I think happened where I'm... Now, this is the thing I feared in going to the gym, which is why I always go at a time, what I say always go, I've been once, but I went at a time when there's no one else there like at mid afternoon very quiet time because what I fear is just being stranded by true beef legends. Do you know what I mean? Yeah, cast of the gladiators. Exactly. Yeah so what happened at one
Starting point is 00:17:16 point what happened was I became aware of my peripheral vision. There was a guy on some sort of acrobatic, I don't know if it was rings, he was doing the most unbelievable stuff. I could tell. He was the way he was moving his body. He was up on, he was like using his hinging his body around and yanking himself up and down, doing like, balletic stuff on rings or something, or something like that. And that was while I was doing the thing of stepping up and down off a bus stop. It was happening right next to us. Like as if you just recovered from a very long and serious illness, the very first stages of your rehabilitation. Mike, that's the illness that we call life. Yeah, baby. And okay, I'll put my hand up, I'm suffering from a bad
Starting point is 00:18:01 case of it. And while that was happening, my, I noticed my personal train, it was actually, I was stepping down on the plastic box and he was sort of getting slightly mesmerized by what this person was doing. But I couldn't look at what they were doing because, so I'd never actually looked at it in the face because I knew that, like, per se, it's with Medusa, my beef would turn to dust. And also, you had to concentrate on that box because imagine if you'd not managed to step onto a box, what, what, man was that crevasically gymnastic thing mixing?
Starting point is 00:18:31 Yeah, I thought that God said for one thing, hey, no, don't fuck up, step it on this box for the love of God. Don't fall off this box and slice off the end of your finger. Yeah, so that was meant, but I didn't look at the person so it was fine. I think that often that works for me in life is if you're really afraid of something don't look at it Don't engage with it. Oh, yeah, I had to stand on a wobbly. I had to stand on a wobbly thing Maybe done that. No, I don't I don't spend any time in gyms
Starting point is 00:18:53 What's the purpose of the wobbly thing? Well, it's to make sure that you can stand on a wobbly thing Mm-hmm. Could you? sort of half Okay, yeah, I can half stand on a wobbly thing. How was the beef master at the end of the session? Was he pumped? Was he excited? Not really. We, um, was he despondent. I think he's sort of got the measure of me, which is it's a fairly, I think me and him, you know, if you leave out a glass of cold water, it'll become warm. Or if you leave out other glass of warm water, it'll become, got where it'll adjust the same temperature
Starting point is 00:19:23 as the room around it. I think we've both hit a sort of quite quickly. Any possible freezeal there might have been, is it room temperature already? Exactly. We've gone straight to room temperature. We're both in our comfort zone, which is heat hands up late. I don't pump that much iron. You don't put as much effort into it as you could. And I think neither does he, probably.
Starting point is 00:19:43 I think it works for both of us. I think both of us probably feel to some degree, if we're gonna make progress in life, we need to get out of this relationship. But you know what they say, Henry? Every beefcake journey starts with a single step onto a very low plastic rock. LAUGHTER
Starting point is 00:20:02 MUSIC Let's turn on that bean machine. This week's topic, Ascent In By Muriel from Illinois, is the Higgs boson slash particles. Good grief. You've come to the right people. Where do we even start? No. The only one of us who has any kind of scientific education really of any kind is more. guilty has charged. I did all I did all the science GCSEs been. Physics. Chemistry. Biology. The Triumvirate. Alchemy. Alchemy. Astrology.
Starting point is 00:21:07 Knowledge of the winds. Necromancy. Necromancy. Water divination. Juggling. And magnets. And magnets. Juggling, which is of course the
Starting point is 00:21:22 is the origins of particle science. Exactly. I, I tell you what, when people ask me about my science heritage and my science story, I often think about, I did do biology, GCSE. You don't care who knows it. I didn't care. I'm actually not fast about talking about it. I very nearly did. RE. GCSE. Okay. And you have to choose between science and RE.
Starting point is 00:21:50 Exactly. The ultimate choice. That classic choice, yeah. Science and God. I mean, you know, and I know we're talking about what, a 15 year old boy here wrestling with such huge concepts. And I was fully aware of the impact on me, on, on, there was no reason to be overly humble about this on society,
Starting point is 00:22:10 of what choice I may. Whether or not you got a decent grasp of photosynthesis. That's a big reason. Of course, impossible to know both. Impossible. You can't hold both of those things in your head at the same time. But I was so indecisive. I absolutely had sleepless nights over it. I was like, which do I choose? I could see these two paths going out ahead of me. Why don't you become the Pope?
Starting point is 00:22:34 Why don't you win a Nobel Prize for sign? Yeah. It's Pope or Pacham. Which isn't going to be. Is it going to be Pachapoc or Pachapacam? We've mentioned Chris Pach in a few times this podcast just to explain for people outside of his fear of influence. He's the UK's leading popular naturalist. Yeah. Basically, if you don't know who Chris back in, he's basically David Bellamy.
Starting point is 00:22:59 He's the guy Adam Ragosto for advice. Yeah. Well, what penguins get up to? In the warm ones. I was absolutely... I just couldn't decide what happened was. So initially I chose biology, right? And I was in my first biology class. And I was like, is it bloke in a... It's bloke in a beard. They often dress in a beard. Bargages.
Starting point is 00:23:27 Bargages, don't they? Well, it's the lab coat of the barlogist. It's the lab coat of the barlogist. It's the lab coat of the barlogist. Yeah. It's obviously not a real beard. But it, because the beard has so many useful functions, doesn't it? For a barlogist.
Starting point is 00:23:38 You can store water fleas in it. You can grow plants and animals in it. It protects the neck from all the known gibbons. His neck gibbons and baboons go for the neck and geese. I don't know, they'll go for the neck. Those are the main animals at GCSE that you're going to. It's gibbonologies and geese. I actually chose to take theory of baboons.
Starting point is 00:24:07 I did practical geese. Which is how I got these scars. I also studied gibbons, but through the lens of R.E. What is Confucius? What's their spiritual life? I have to say, about Gibbons. Can a Gibbon be made to wear a casook? How long before they just tear it off?
Starting point is 00:24:35 It's moments, Henry. It's moments. Can I just say I did both Ari and biology? What? I am the destroyer of words. Biomagic is this, don't... I'm more powerful than you can ever imagine. That's why you are at the only possible candidate in the world to harbor the bean machine.
Starting point is 00:25:00 Exactly. Exactly. Exactly. The two twin disciplines. Which is where the divine and the scientific meet, the sacred and the profane, class pans, deep within that functionality,
Starting point is 00:25:14 within that mechanism. The earliest sketches of the bean machine, of course, were done at the, whether the peak of both scientific and artistic achievement, those, which is of course the Renaissance, Da Vinci sketches of the bean machine, they were is of course the Renaissance, Da Vinci's sketches for the Bean Machine, they were never made, the Petruvian Bean, the Petruvian Bean, it will originates there, doesn't it?
Starting point is 00:25:32 Hang on, I'm supposed to call him Vinci. So Vinci. No, no, no, that's like calling Ben Cardiff. Oh God. Oh God. Oh God. Oh God. He's Leonardo, is he?
Starting point is 00:25:46 From Vinci. Yeah, you can call him Leonardo, I think. You can call him Leonardo, but it doesn't narrow it down. It could be any Leonardo. I chose biology in biology GCSE. It's in my first lesson. There's a black... There's black wearing traditional beard.
Starting point is 00:26:04 And was it Moses? There's a black... There's blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's a blackwings, there's And he drives them on day down the middle. So here's what happened, right? I was in my first biology lesson. I said, it was all taught, I think,
Starting point is 00:26:28 I think it was Cortex and Pith, put it potentially. What's that? Sounds like a folk duo. He brought out Bobby Cortex and Stevie Pith. And he brought out a series of Wessex, sort of, Wessex, Lan Shanties. Yeah. And I've sat there and I was going, this is ridiculous. I mean, I could be,
Starting point is 00:26:55 what is this compared to theology? I mean, this is just like, feel like moisture moving back and forth through a membrane. I was like, this is ridiculous. I've made the wrong choice. I sat there, I've made the wrong choice. I could see my life going ahead of me of not being the Pope. And all that goes with that. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha car. And I'm getting strong rives from you that you did biology to his ears. Are we absolutely cannot sell you a boatman? You must instead have a this fit panda. I'll perhaps you like to craft yourself a car out of some bark and mushrooms. You fool! How you buy a job fool? Maybe you can get to your destination by Osmosis. Get the fuck out! Um, and what I did was, right? I'm bringing mine, my parents in the school had to go through quite a few weeks of me
Starting point is 00:27:55 humming and r-ing, and it was all a bit annoying for everyone. But I came home that night and I said to my parents, I was like, look, look, I'm so sorry, I've made the wrong decision. I've ruined my future. I've ruined my future. I've ruined my future. Long story short, I'm going to get very, very, very, very, really treated in a theater dealership. That's what I've gathered from my, from a soothing GCSE. That's what's seemingly coming up.
Starting point is 00:28:19 The entrails have spoken. Can I please change? And they had to call out the school and stuff. So after what, also a bit of a cost to my biology teacher, I felt a bit sorry for him to go with the fake bed, by change. They changed me from biology to R.E. Right. And this was, so this involved changing schedules, you know, it's like really complicated running a school then. Where's their Ben? Yeah. schedules, you know, it's like really complicated running a school then. Where's a Ben? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:45 I don't know. But it is hard running a school. It's all timetabling and stuff. And like, you know, if you do this set of lessons, then you're only open to this set of modules and it's difficult planning the week and you die anyway. They imagine what nobody was able to tell you Henry. Is it really didn't matter either way? Did it? Well, that's the thing.
Starting point is 00:29:04 Maybe it wasn't that huge because I can't remember anything at that study anyway, but I didn't need me to RE right and I was like thank good one, not thank God, maybe, I don't know. Let's work out who we're going to thank. Let's work out who we're going to go to. Let's work out in a company that's your coursework right there. And I sat there right in RE. I was like brilliant. This is depth of, this is depth of cultural knowledge.
Starting point is 00:29:30 Even if I don't necessarily believe in God, I'm not sure that there is a divine power. This is culturally important. It feeds into literature. It feeds into poetry. It feeds into biology. Some of the ethical questions around biology. Exactly, there you go. But it really did feel like there's two answers to the universe, and which do I choose, is it about cells, things moving backwards and forwards through membranes,
Starting point is 00:29:56 which is mainly what biology is, it's part cells, particles, and, indeed, moving backwards and forwards through membranes, or is it a kind of calledzes with a stick walking around to creeing things. It's two very different ways of looking at the world, isn't it? Did he ever stick the tendon to a snake? Or did he ever snake the tendon to a stick? I think it was sticking to snake. Okay. Ooh.
Starting point is 00:30:18 A bush went on fire? I can't have it with anybody, so... And so the RE teacher, who was also, I think, the school chaplain or whatever, real beers, real bed. Oh yeah. And I came in a good, good old tug to make sure, and it certainly was. And then, so he was talking about the Bible and stuff. I can't remember what it was exactly, but it was probably like a bit of a cool stuff
Starting point is 00:30:42 at that point. And I've sat there, and about 10 minutes in, I've got this hot feeling in my neck. I was like, I've got to do biology. I can't do this. It has it. It is about, it is about cells. It is about membranes. I want to get through the fucking membrane of
Starting point is 00:31:06 that door and get the head out of this. Stop listening to this, have some shine. And then... Well, that's such a immense empathy. Yeah. With your parents. I know. With whoever had to do the. With your parents. I know. With whoever had to do the schedule at the same time.
Starting point is 00:31:26 I know. What a frustrating day. I said, you're older brothers. I couldn't believe, but I felt so trapped. I was like, I have to go out of this R.E. I cannot be in this. It has to be biology. Biology is the answer. So I then had to say I had to change.
Starting point is 00:31:38 I made the record. You changed me back. So I insulted the first biology teacher. I insulted the R.E. guy in the chapter. I then get transferred, but they couldn't transfer me back. So I'd insulted the first biology teacher. I'd insulted the RE guy in the chapter. I then I get transferred, but they couldn't transfer me back to the original biology because of the schedules. I had to they had to put me into an entire different sort of segment of the schedule. It wasn't that. That would have been everyone listening knows that that would have been the easiest
Starting point is 00:31:59 change in the world. You're right. Back to square one saying it now. You are, yeah, you've been blacklisted, but positive teaching number one, yeah, positive teaching number one, I said, you will have nothing further to do with you. Yeah. And he won't be responsible for his actions if he has to lay eyes on you one more time.
Starting point is 00:32:15 And looking back on it now, the second penalty teacher did look a lot like the janitor's alzation. look a lot like the janitor's alzation. And you were the only one in the class. Yeah. And you were outside, you were just a little sheet that said, dissect yourself.
Starting point is 00:32:40 Yeah, maybe you know, you know, you're now thinking about it might can actually weirdly using the information I've learnt from biology. That cell went across a membrane from the biology section of the schedule, into the RE schedule, the easiest thing in the world is that molecule to go back again, but instead, I was transferred through a different membrane into it, so I ended up with a complete new biology teacher, who actually was Dr. Constance, and then the whole, sorry, the whole Goan-Ed stay barcle, never would have happened. I've hadn't made that whole, the whole, sorry, the whole Go-Ned stay barcle. Never would have happened. We've haven't made that decision, so maybe it was worth it.
Starting point is 00:33:11 But it was really, but I really felt that like, you know, there was a lot of stank there. I have ended up doing the tram for it. Biology, physics, and chemistry. How many of us can say that in here right now today? Probably all three of us, is it? Yeah. Yeah, it's pretty cool though, right? Well, I did something called double science.
Starting point is 00:33:33 I did double science. I was double three, but only got two GCSEs, I think. Didn't get three. Oh, they did that, didn't they? Oh, they just give you one or two or three, or yeah. Yeah. But you have to do all three, I think. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:43 Obviously, those three disciplines give you a different take on the particle, don't they? Each of them has its own approach to what a particle is. Well, you sort of realise that all biology is basically chemistry, and then all chemistry is basically physics. And all of it is probably RRE, actually. I don't know that for sure, but it might be. No, because you didn't do the course. If I carried on.
Starting point is 00:34:02 What are you saying, Ben? Which was the order they come in in your mind? Well, everything in biology sort of comes down to like chemical reactions that happen inside cells and inside animals and plants. So that's basically chemistry. And then all those chemical reactions are basically a sort of expression of physics in some way, aren't they? Am I making any sense, Mike? You're making perfect sense. Yeah, yeah. Like electrons, yeah, that's a thing around that place, that kind of stuff. And then you break it down to physics, and then that's all little tiny particles and stuff. And then you go even further, and you're right, Henry,
Starting point is 00:34:29 you're back to RE. Or the Higgs boson. Yes. The God particle itself. What is that basic particle that cannot be divided, maybe? But essentially, so in physics, you've got these little rounds, they're quite cold, aren't they? Physics is quite cold, well, I think.
Starting point is 00:34:46 It's not very touchy feet, is it? It's not very, you know what I mean? It's pretty sort of, pretty brutal sort of circles moving about. You're not going to get tepid, brackish water in your Welles. Don't you think? No. There's a lot of sitting in a control room and saying, throw the switch. Is it ready?
Starting point is 00:35:00 There's that. There's no, there's no thermos in a round of sandwiches. Just out on the end of a, of a tour. It's increased, increased segment nine to orange. That's nothing. It's, do we tell the public or not? Yeah. Why are there now two professor And why are they both saying I've done it? Which one do you believe? Which one of them do we execute? Quick check the Scuba Nights notebook. Why is Dr. Rougan Blue a baby suddenly? There's that kind of thing. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:40 And that's just over your typical lunch break, isn't it? That's your underground physics. Lunch break. Yeah. You just get used to it, isn't it? If you've got a seat, that's your underground physics. Yeah. Lunch break. Yeah, you just get used to it, don't you? Splitting the professor. Yeah. Chemistry is a bit more fun because you've got a Bunsen burner.
Starting point is 00:35:52 One way of looking at science and the science is, and comparing them to look at the injuries you'll get. So in physics, it's more like, Dr. Inkle doesn't exist anymore, but he also exists an infinite number of times. Yeah. So it's very hard to go to the NHS, for example, with that as a problem. But the people do, you know, if you've ever been to A&E, you know, late, late on the weekend, there'll be loads of people, there'll be football injuries, people fight injuries.
Starting point is 00:36:17 In a university town, yes, someone's presenting as a gas. Yeah. That just me. I'm a stash floating around. That you can only see through a special sort of spectrograph. And a lot of the time it's young doctors on these night shifts. It's very hard for them to know what to do, isn't it? Well, they've got, yeah, patients existing on different temporal planes. It's an absolute nightmare. Admin wise. Exactly. Oh, hello, my name is is Dr. Fnugel. All of my particles are the wrong way around.
Starting point is 00:36:46 As you can tell, because I'm now a Zebra, I'm currently traveling backwards through time. I've already reached 1972, and it's only two times. And basically what you need in that situation is you've got a hope that one of the doctors in A&E was once an extra in a Christopher Nolan film. Yeah. May have picked up some of the hot nonsense you need to know. It's that sort of thing, isn't it? It's huge. It's this big scale...
Starting point is 00:37:11 Yeah, it's big scale stuff. My husband's a stretch in a bookcase. Yeah, exactly. That sort of thing. I've become a memory of my great aunts. of my great-hands. Class of water and some Eurofen. And then to chemistry is more sulfurous burns. Chemical burns, yeah. Chemical burns, isn't it? So that ruined rivers, yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:39 Pharmaceutical scandals. Yep. Yeah. All that stuff. And in terms of personal body injury, it's it's pretty bad stuff, isn't it? It's it's it's it's bitch and smogs. It's drug trial gone wrong. Stuff. Yeah. It's maybe yeah. Mustache on fire. Yeah. Which is why you have you should always wear goggles. A lot of goggles. Yeah. Chemistry. Yeah. And thick gloves. And
Starting point is 00:38:04 you are and you are in Bunsen, Bernhard Wells as a school child thing, chemistry. Yeah. It's the passport to your hot, hot fire. Yeah. And in terms of particles, so in physics, we're talking little round circles with a large capital, less than x, than an arrow, maybe pointing towards a wobbly line representing time, that kind of thing. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:22 In chemistry, those little circles essentially start reproducing. They start, they start attacking. They get big enough to see with an A to die. And you can see what color they are, can't you? Exactly. Yeah. You're up to the particles of movie episodes. Those particles really in physics and sort of
Starting point is 00:38:34 granules really in chemistry, isn't it? It's more granules, isn't it? So it's like a sort of hard, it's a coarse grain science. That's right. So it's a musely. It's a kind of like non-edible musely, isn't it, a lot of what you're dealing with. Bright colors, you've got bright purple,
Starting point is 00:38:51 that's just one of the colors you can get, isn't it? There's pinks and greens, substances, because yeah, you don't really come across substances that often in real life. Normally, particles in real life have been formed by either a machine or a craft person into objects such as shoes, sideboards, desk fans, etc. Whereas is any in chemistry really that you come across just some substance?
Starting point is 00:39:16 Right, oh. Do you know what I mean? Stuff in a jar. Yes, stuff in a jar. So here's some magnesium. Because normally most objects in the cultural sphere are made out of a combination of them The substances aren't there. Physics you can't keep the stuff in a jar chemistry can keep it in a jar It's fine on its own in the jar. Yeah biology can keep it in a jar
Starting point is 00:39:33 But it will need some special fluid in the jar as well. That's right and air holes Please please air holes and just a little bit of lettuce in the corner Yeah, if you need lettuce, you're doing biology. Awesome, very deep physics. I'm gonna have to turn it into a lettuce. Or RE and you're just having lunch. It's all linked. Oh, it's linked, all right.
Starting point is 00:40:00 And then injury wise for biology, then it some punctuoons of teeth ripping at your teeth marks. Yeah, it's becoming food isn't it? You become into the food chain. You in a way become you become internal chemistry to the biological organism which is consuming you. Yes, it's venom. It's a mebic dysentery. It's all you do, all you dysentries from Amoebaek to Zuerotro Pick. The whole range to predatory mammal dysentery. I mean, it can't even be getting trapped in a lift with thousands of wasps. There's lots of different ways to go, isn't there with biology? Yeah. And you know, when you get to the sort of the university level stuff, occasionally there's going to be your sort of species splicing,
Starting point is 00:40:41 ligar accidents and so on and so forth. Yeah. A periguin hedgehog, your crock of ant. sort of species splicing, Liger accidents and so on and so forth. A parry grinned hedgehog, you're a crock of ant. That's one of the things we can really go wrong. Yes, you could be trampled the death by a herd of willed depends. Time to meet your emails.
Starting point is 00:41:14 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 a robot, chewing a horse. Diff me your horse.
Starting point is 00:41:42 Shrew in our horse. Give me your horse. Go. Go. My beautiful horse. Now, you might remember a few weeks ago we talked about somebody emailed in saying that their three-year-old was screaming the phrase, bring me the carigans at every opportunity. Indeed, yes. In reference to Caragans' mustard.
Starting point is 00:42:04 It's Caragans' time,. His Caragans time, its Caragans time. Me the Caragans bring me the Caragans. Tom writes that he too finds himself constantly singing the jingle to this fictional condiment. He says, my particular earworm is taken on the flavor that I'll be surprised to hear is shared by the three-year-old. In my head, it has become perfectly blended with Fragumers early 2000s banger, Tockers Miracle. Now, I didn't remember the song Tockers Miracle, but he sent us it, and I do recognize it. Have a listen to this. Yes, my play-drysman has been unmasked. I would head to me, Mel's, from people who came to our live shows.
Starting point is 00:42:55 Thanks to everyone who came, who watched on the stream and why have you? Yeah, thank you. Hannah writes, I'm writing this after seeing your live show. Directly after the show, I went with a fellow bean head to a press emonger near the venue. I know the one. All three of us went there, I believe. We did. It had a very, very dour,
Starting point is 00:43:11 and sort of weird atmosphere in there, didn't it? It was a bit dour. Yeah, it was a bit dour. Although actually, I found it was a bit less dour when I went in. I'm not saying to do with you, Ben, or any of the energy that you carry with you. Sounds like you are.
Starting point is 00:43:24 I'm saying Ben brings the dour. Ha in the end of the end of the UK with you. Sounds like you're saying Ben brings the down. You're saying I've got the blood of a friend down in a whole pret. I think you might. Sower the vibe of a whole pret. It felt like a last chance to lean pret to me. Everyone in there was kind of on their last chance. It's that sort of pret that one. The wrecking ball was halfway through its arc.
Starting point is 00:43:42 There's a lot of like cops that have just been thrown off cases and stuff end up in there. Yeah. That'll be sad. People do it's been thrown out of the circus. Just sort of twiddling a duck rap, gazing out the window with a sort of dead eyed stare. And there'll be brawls, caught from there'll be a pret brawl happening in the corner.
Starting point is 00:43:58 And was Hannah part of one of those brawls? What did Hannah make of this pret? So she writes, the person sat at the table across from us who were recognized as another member of the audience had been plugging in their phone charger, which immediately exploded. Ooh, my guess is that the person in question
Starting point is 00:44:12 had been attempted to listen to your podcast after seeing the live show and their phone overloaded with the sheer power of the bean machine. That's possible, yeah. Although another admittedly dark idea is that this was an attack on the bean head and explosion planted by none other than our dastardly friends, verbs.
Starting point is 00:44:27 And verbs, who knew there was a good chance that at least one of the beans might end up in that predate at some point? Exactly. It's possible that that was a verbs device, wasn't it, that... Collie, will I hope that person survived on the scales? So, was that after the show, Ben? After the show, yeah, a fellow would, you remember, had a phone explode. I wonder, Ben, because you noticed I was a weird
Starting point is 00:44:46 atmosphere. This is not none of this is a coincidence. You noticed I was a weird atmosphere in that prayer. Something was going on. Maybe sperps was in there Ben planting that. Maybe planting the whole pret. Might not have been a pret there before. Might have been a full spread. Oh my god. It might be a false prayer. Might have been a dummy, bread. It's true, I did notice that all my duck wrap was just full of pencil sharpening. But with enough hoisin, Henry, does the math over there. It's true, but then I thought, exactly,
Starting point is 00:45:15 that's what I did. So I did hoisin, that. Barney and Ben were also in the King's Cross area on that Sunday and that very same show. And afterwards, instead of going to pret, they went to the MNS food in the area. I mean, that's a different mindset, isn't it? Yeah, these guys are looking after themselves. These guys are bringing in top dollar by
Starting point is 00:45:32 the sound of things, I'd say. Well, they write, as we entered the shop, we dared to dream that there might be a variety of goods on offer with the fabled yellow sticker. Ah, okay. And we soon found out that our hoats were not in vain. Police see attached a photograph for evidence of our most been full harvest. Since you are of an audio medium, you'll have to describe this to the listeners.
Starting point is 00:45:51 That the image depicts eight packets of mini-collinant caterpillars, each priced at 68p per five collins, instead of the retail price of £3.40. This is a total of 40 collins. Hang on, is that the cake? Or the sweet? The cake, because it looks like a great big cake. They bought 40 of them.
Starting point is 00:46:12 They bought 40 columnic caterpillar cakes. Yes, at the price of £68p per five columns. LAUGHTER Just because something's a good deal doesn't mean you need it. That's something that... You have to learn in life. Just because it means good value. If they're men in their 20s, they can live off that. They haven't said the right.
Starting point is 00:46:33 It's fine, isn't it? It's got to be a man in his 20s. They could both be veterans of the second world war. Barney found himself so bold over by the aggressive discount. Did he kept referring to the Collins as Henry's? Perhaps it was something to do with the pale complexion, warm grin and shiny round face. Not to mention. What?
Starting point is 00:46:58 The chocolatey Thorax and anal claspers. Oh, come on guys. Hang on, was this a real M&S? I'm sure it doesn't have an anal clasper. Oh, come on guys. Hang on, with these, was this a real M&S? I'm not sure it doesn't have an anal clasper. It's not that detailed. It's expires the price, doesn't it? What's an anal clasper?
Starting point is 00:47:13 I'm imagining it's something that a real Colin has on their ass. To hang themselves off in a wardrobe at the end of the day. Yeah. So, no one's making any of that. Anyway, it shows that people who come to our live show afterwards will often have a kind of extraordinary culinary experience. Yeah, we'll need for a sugar high or something. They may be, they would have been feeling
Starting point is 00:47:32 quite low. Yeah, quite, quite a bit of a depletion. Yeah. I don't think you make the decision to buy 40 Colin the caterpillar cakes if you're in a good place. No, you're, you're in a real state. Yeah, you're an absolute state. You're reaching out for anything. You don't even know if it's physical or emotional even the wall's going on Yeah, just know it's worth trying some yeah, I should a dump first. See if they're help Maybe I'll try and blow up my phone or maybe I'll buy 40 cakes. I don't know I need to do something big something life-changing so I need I need to make a decision I need to because I've ended up life-changing, so I need to make a decision, I need to, because I've ended up in a place where I was in that show, I've ended up there, so I need
Starting point is 00:48:10 to make a decision to change. 68P for five columns, right, get 40. That's an extraordinary deal, I've forked on the catapult, I think it takes for 68P. There's five. Five. I wonder what they've done with them now, They're making their way through them, freezing them. What would you do? I think I might sort of go through the streets in my open top side, handing them out. Like a very king.
Starting point is 00:48:34 Yeah. Like a king, exactly. Finally, Mel, from Chris and Gilford. This reference is Henry told us a few weeks back about a time that he queued jump to Sofie Addis Bexter. Halfas. Zone 5. Mind the gap between your provincial existence and this metropolitan utopia. Next stop, Urban Enlightenment. The glamorous London life of Henry Vagga Hang on a second, is that Saranjoo Lloyd Webber?
Starting point is 00:49:29 No, it can't be, because you're Saranjoo Lloyd Webber. I know! We've actually had a couple of emails about this. Let's start with this one. Dear Beans, I too, Q jumped so fiatist backster. What? Hehehe. Hehehe.
Starting point is 00:49:47 Hehehe. We can't start this. The poor woman's life. Oh yeah. This summer, I attended a festival in Rainy Cornwall called Rock Oyster. It may be hard to believe, but the exact scenario that Henry described
Starting point is 00:49:59 also happened to me. Well, almost exact, the only difference is whereas follows. Substitute to green grocers for a sweet kiosk difference is whereas follows. Substitute a green grocers for a sweet kiosk. Substitute plums for a strawberry chuppetchup and a bag of flumps. And substitute Henry for chrysankelford. This leads me to believe that Sophia Nisbekster is very indecisive. I'm going to say, should she really be called Sophia Lex Doldler? Henry and Henry and Chris, you're doing some
Starting point is 00:50:25 classic victim blaming right here. That is victim blaming, sorry. Yeah, good point. I think you need to reflect on your own cue behavior, Chris and Henry. I can't find the second email, the other email. I'm just trying to find because I think it was a, I think it was a Patreon, I can't find it,
Starting point is 00:50:40 but basically it was someone just saying that you went down in their opinion because you jumped the cue in front of Sophia and his spectre and they said that it showed poor character on your part. And I really liked it. I can't find the message anyway. And I mean, I take that. I take that.
Starting point is 00:50:55 It's not my finest hour. No. I mean, in my defense, same defense made it at the time, it was just for a couple of plums. I think they specifically said in this message that that's probably what you'd say and that that's not a good enough excuse because a queue is a queue. Literally just two plums though, but yeah, okay, fine. That'll accept that.
Starting point is 00:51:12 I mean, if it had been a couple of plums, a femal and some posh olive oil, different story. I think queue dynamics should allow for, I mean, it's the thing of when you're in a queue and this, Sophie likes back, back, this is in front of you.'re in a queue and this so if you look back to the front of you. No, no, no, no, so he's anything of different example. You know, when you're in a queue and Jeff Lin from the IOs in front of you, and he's like buying like like hundreds of plums. For his annual plum fights, we have the Roger Taylor from Queen.
Starting point is 00:51:49 He brings the plum for his Taylor from Queen, brings the Labrador's. Labrador's get to eat all the, all the plum to try to sit at the end of the day, which makes him ill. And that's when Brian May comes along with his mobile Labrador ship vacuum. He built himself, his father. I fell all the time. Fire plays. Now, what I'm saying is, sometimes there's a situation in a queue where, okay, this is
Starting point is 00:52:15 this way you need to think about it. Imagine that you're also, you're an inspector. Right, okay, yeah. Okay, so, let's flip the switch. Flip, flip, yeah, yeah, so let's flip the switch flip flip flip flip so what does it feel like to know that you produced timeless a beef ratham beautiful pure dance pop a real infinite banger an infinite banger right in murder on the dance floor you you made that that's yours
Starting point is 00:52:40 yeah just to get into the character yeah and then there's someone behind you Yeah, just to get you into the character. Yeah, and then there's someone behind you Yeah, so but you know you're buying fennels leaks Sweet potato normal potato Maris pipe a potato baby potato all the you're buying loads and loads of stuff Yeah, and then someone behind you in the queue that just got two plums sometimes you'll wave them through You must have done that. Yeah, but that's in her gift, isn't it? That's in her that is in her gift But sometimes when you're in situation where because I've waved people through in the past, have you waved people through in that situation?
Starting point is 00:53:10 Yeah. So, I know that ethically, there's a situation where being waved through is a good result for this situation ethically. So all I'm doing is pointing out to the person, this might be a waved through here. I mean, I, because, you know what I mean? No, but that's not what happened. That's not what happened, no. Well, I took it one step further, which is I went, a wave through is happening. I've waved this whole through. This is not in your gift. It's just, it's just a couple of plums. I think
Starting point is 00:53:38 it's okay to say someone, do you mind letting me through? It's just a couple of plums. It's for depends on the situation. Yeah, it's a depends on the situation, yeah. Well, this one's going to run and run, so let's let it run blonde. Yeah, it's the ethical quandary that's gripping the nation. It's sort of like one of those trolley debates, isn't it? You're in a trolley.
Starting point is 00:53:56 Sophie's in another trolley, there's another trolley full of plums. They're all heading for a chasm. You can only save one trolley. You can only save one trolley. Yeah, you save the plums. You've got to one trolley. You can only say one trolley. Yeah, you say the plums. You've got to say the plums. Save the plums every time.
Starting point is 00:54:08 Because the plums can feed a thousand bexters. But of course, if you give Saviolex bext to a fishing rod and teach a catch plums. Or even better teach her to teach people. Then actually maybe there is a better world ahead of us for everyone that we can share in a supportive and kind environment. Thank you, Henry, that was beautiful. It's time to pay the ferryman.

Starting point is 00:55:22 Err, last night! I was, I was, I was! Yeah, of course. It was a salty one, wasn't it? We got a little bit salty, sure. Yeah. It was the origami spice rack challenge, wasn't it? Ha, Bean Lounge, Richard Brown here attempted a skeletal polyheedra Spice Rec, but given he was using Hannah Jenkins' locally sourced rice vellum under pointed
Starting point is 00:55:53 and the rec was barely able to support a single clove. Shannon Pat eschewed paper entirely and reversed folded Azoo into the soft crease between Jack Sonnis and James McKillrath before testulating Ankit-Rai perpendicular to Matthew Britain's dog base, swiveling an octoplete into a lane found of Vymeykel Freeman's landmark landmark, before avid snoozing Lucy Patrick Ward, allowing a half-moon fudge factor for Jonathan Gore-Rads Frogs up, and closing the sink completely overped up Scobay and Tom Store. Just as Matt was about to insert the test or regano, the construction was attacked by a furious Russell Taylor, aka Weinbuff, using ballistic nutmeg. Russell had been mistaken in the belief that his own modular, noxi-five types of Chinese
Starting point is 00:56:31 fives by SpiceRack had been sabotaged by Shannon, owing to some shunk intelligence from Warren Pairs. That the linen-finished paprika paper he'd acquired from Ben Price had been intentionally overdried by Sean Jones, and augmented with incendiary margin lines by Tom Cornwall using the famously combustible elbow scrapings of Rob, all at the behest of Shannon when the truth of it was that Russell's fingers were acting like flint and fire steel during construction because Dunkin' Eastern had accidentally swapped his gloves for Frown Millhouse's Firework display operating mittens.
Starting point is 00:56:59 This then was the cause of what became known as the spicy inflegration with a hint of licorice, which incidentally was Sandra Elliot's nickname at the Academy. Despite the disruption, Chloe Paget and Pauline kept cool heads and maintained impenetrable focus, and Scosh folded an action model spice rack over a crease pattern that was able to hold Fenigrek, Holy Basil and all of the spices that begin with a letter C. Hanabewis Waterbom folded, sweet baby barefoot to reverse single parallel magpie crinkle, but misjudged the underlapp and the rack could only hold spices if the spices were being held by Joe and ornate Seekweed and ornile Duncan and ornate. Alex F. Cordero pleated Hannah Moffeat into a dill shelf, Barry Donovan crimped Aaron
Starting point is 00:57:36 Peters into a saffron perch, or ex-Killing Machine Valley-folded double twisted win-willed units into what looked like a spice rack but functioned like a miniature carhoover. Zachary Davis created a perfect MC Escher spice rack and a so far sent Laurie Wesley, Calam Hayden, Simon Postre and James Kennedy down it to play some dried bay leaves, but at the time of writing, none of them has made it back out again. And last but not least, Susanna Clark, Panicked, Swallowed a Jar of Peppicle on's whole and made a fairly decent paper error plane. Thanks all. That's the end of the show.
Starting point is 00:58:05 This week's theme will be by Will from Ottawa. I've been listening to your show since its beginning, much to the chagrant of my immediate family, and I've long wanted to submit a cover of your theme tune. Now, throughout my life, I've only been able to play two instruments, the viola, and bagpipes. Oh, crikey, I tell you, being being around this person in the
Starting point is 00:58:26 learning phase, yeah, of that double is pretty hard. That must have been hard for that. I'm not surprised that the family adishing actually I grabbed. So he said my initial thought once Mike had slagged off the viola in one of your earlier episodes. That's incredible. That might have been my chance. However, I was beaten to the punch by an admittedly better and much more qualified professional violinist, violinist, violist. I have since stopped playing the viola brackets for reasons unrelated to Mike's polyking of the instrument. So that leaves only one option.
Starting point is 00:58:58 I present to you the three-beam jig. It doesn't sound exactly like the original because the bag pipes have quite a limited register of notes, but I tried my best to emulate the spirit of the theme. Well, I for one cannot wait to hear this. Well, thank you, Will. Can I say, I find bagpipe music. When it is played well, and it really gets here, and you see the sun glinting up the lern sassage in your fist. No, but you know, like when it really hits it, it goes straight to your heart, and it's like your heart is being blown into and mashed.
Starting point is 00:59:36 You just want to run a claim all through an Englishman's belly. Exactly. That's what you want to do. Okay. Well, thank you for listening, everyone. Thank you. Until next time, and here's Will's theory out Thank you.
