Hello and welcome to TTTT. York Pond, York Pond, York Pond
Hello Simon
Hello Lewis
So it's Saturday afternoon, 5 o'clock in the evening, lovely sunny day, first day of summer
What have you been doing all day Simon?
I've just kind of been satting around mostly. I've been watching Come Dine With Me.
Um,
just a bit of it.
Oh, goodness me.
What?
Don't you like
Come Dine With Me?
People won't know
what that is either.
It's a TV show
in which people
host dinner parties
and they vote
on each other's
like,
hospitality and food
and
the winner gets
£1,000 of english money wow
it's a good show i like it thing is i like the drama when it kicks off it's all sort of very
artificial drama i mean they deliberately choose people who wouldn't necessarily get along with
each other just to spark the drama and people are always horribly picky of each other
would you like to be on
it? I would love to be on it
yes. Because I know you've been cooking
pies and things for James
like a good house husband
I've been cooking pies for James
yeah. He comes home from
work and I'm like
I made you a pie dear
oh god did you hear that kid outside?
Yeah!
Fucking hell.
That's not your kid. That's Ewan James'
child. It's Simon Jr.
He's running about.
I've had him hidden.
Yeah.
Get back in the fucking cupboard under the
stairs, Simon Jr.
Can we talk to him? Can we talk to Simon Jr.?
Mummy, no! Poor Simon Jr. in the fucking cupboard under the stairs Simon Junior can we talk to him can we talk to Simon Junior mummy no
poor Simon Junior
where is he
bring him up here
what
no
I want to talk with him
I want to talk with him
you can't
he's busy playing
with the other children
in the
residential area
no I just want you
to do the child voice
do the child
the child voice
no not that
that's the creepy children that that's the creepy children
voice
that's the creepy girl from
how are you
hello
I'm a little bit worried
because I do have my window wide open and anyone
outside will be able to hear things that I say
yeah
I mean the Brian Blessed thing earlier I mean when we had Anyone outside will be able to hear things that I say. Yeah. Do you...
I mean, the Brian Blessed thing earlier.
I mean, when we had Brian Blessed and interviewed him.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
James could hear him downstairs.
Right.
And he...
I came downstairs and he sort of looked at me.
And I was like, could you hear...
And he said, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I could hear Brian Blessed up there.
Yeah.
Sorry, so going back to Come Dine With Me,
like, I mean, you could cook a nice little meal,
a little hosted meal with broccoli and stuff in it.
I'm not really sure what I would do.
What would you do?
The thing is, on Come Dine With Me,
it tends to be these people.
These people, like, cook things that they've never cooked before
It's like oh I've never cooked this before
But I thought I'd do it specially
It's like well no don't do that
Do something you've done before that you're good at
You know
Yeah but what if all they do is make
Macaroni cheese and ham sandwiches
What if you know
They can't do anything else
You can't serve that at a dinner party can you
Everyone has a bit of a speciality though You know like I can't do anything else. You can't serve that at a dinner party, can you? Everyone has a bit of a speciality, though.
You know, like, I do a really good roast chicken,
where I, like, put a lemon in it,
and then put it in, like, a bag, like an oven bag,
with mushrooms, carrots, all sorts of, like, vegetables and stuff.
Christ, he's cooking with with Hannah except it's cooking with
Lewis
do you not
have any
like recipes
that you
instead of
Thai fish
in a bag
you've got
a fucking
chicken
and a whole
lemon
and a bag
of mushrooms
just thrown
into this
fucking
Tesco
carrier bag
that you just
pop in the oven
and then you do
some like
you know
mash with it
or something
something like
that
have you not
got a
trademark
dish Simon's special I don't know you know, mash with it or something. Something like that. Have you not got a trademark dish?
Simon's special?
I don't know, really.
It's probably just curry or something.
That's what I'm fairly good at making, I guess.
But that's not really fair because it's just like...
How do you make that?
Well, the thing is, I cook some chicken
and then I cook some mushrooms and onions
and then I put it in a big pot,
and then I add curry sauce that's on offer from Asda for a pound.
Right, yeah.
You know? I mean, that's not really...
Do you have, like, a cocktail?
What sort of cocktail would you make as, like, a Simon cocktail?
Pimms. Goes very well with curry.
I suppose so.
My nan has like cucumber and
apple and stuff with
curry and banana. Cucumber,
apple and banana? It's a very old school curry.
You know? Well, actually in the
curry. No, in like a side dish.
So you have like yoghurt, cucumber, apple, banana
and you add it into the... and like
sultanas, you know?
Have you not... Is this what people used to do?
It's like an English curry.
No, this sounds a bit fucked up.
What do you mean?
It's nice, but kind of slightly weird.
So instead of using meat, you just add fruit?
A fruit curry?
No, no, you have the whole curry,
but the apple, banana, raisins and stuff are like a side...
It's like yoghurt and mango chutney
that sort of stuff
you know it's all like
like additions
right yeah okay
I get you
mango chutney
mango chutney
yoghurt
with poppadoms
that's how I remember it
pop
yeah
have you ever tried
to make poppadoms
um
oddly enough no
no I haven't
no
just bear in mind
there are different things to make
the last three days I've lived off
of sandwiches and
a really, really bad microwave meal
that I had last night. Why is that?
Because James isn't here and I can't be asked to cook.
Oh.
I'm all alone. He's left me. He's abandoned
me. I'm home alone.
Like that kid in that movie.
Dude, you should go out and get some nice curry or something.
With Simon Jr. obviously.
Simon Jr. is hanging around.
I don't feed him things like curry.
Or any real food.
I just...
I feed him coal.
And wood shavings.
What?
Yeah.
It gives him everything that he needs.
It gives him all the nutrients that he needs.
That's all a growing lad needs.
Is he like a robot?
No, he's a human
child.
But he eats
however he is.
Coal.
He's the fruit of my
loins.
Where do you source
your coal from, by the
way, since it's not
1950 anymore?
Wales.
Welsh coal, yeah.
Only their finest.
Real stuff.
It's the good shit.
You know, I don't give them the craps kind.
Is it?
It is.
That's the only thing I can say in a Welsh accent.
Are you trying to do a French accent or something?
What?
Welsh?
Is it?
I don't even know what that is.
What is that?
Where on earth were we?
I'd still want to talk to Simon Jr.
Is he around?
Oh, look.
He's here now.
He's climbed the stairs.
Have you unlocked his cupboard?
I've unlocked his cupboard.
Why are you mistreating your child so bad?
I'm not mistreating him.
What are you talking about?
Can I talk to him?
You're criticising how I'm raising my son.
I'm like social services.
I'm just checking up on you, that's all.
Alright.
Hello.
Hello there.
Who's that there?
It's Lewis here.
What's going on?
I'm a friend of your father's.
Where's mummy?
Or is it your mother?
Where's mummy?
Is your mother near you?
Where's mummy?
That's enough for now.
Where's his mother?
Are you his mother or his father?
We need to get this clear.
I got confused.
Do you need me to explain it again?
Yeah.
Oh, God.
Here we go.
When a man and a woman love each other...
Oh, no, not that.
I mean your relationship status.
Oh.
Basically, I am not that. I mean your relationship status. Oh. Basically,
I am his father.
Okay. And his mother. Oh.
I...
When I was young, I had both sets of genitalia
and I impregnated myself
and he is the result
of that act of
self-love. So, hang on.
He's basically a clone. He's a clone of you. Is that what you're sayinglove. So hang on. He's basically a clone.
He's a clone of you.
Is that what you're saying?
Yeah, pretty much.
So he's like the mini me.
He's like mini me.
Yeah, exactly.
I'm an old man
and I've fallen over.
I can't get up
but it's alright because I've fallen over. I can't get up.
But it's alright.
Because I've got my iPod.
And I'm listening to the Yacht Pod.
Oh, be back.
Oh, God.
Oh, God. Oh, God.
That was pretty funny. That was pretty funny.
That was very funny.
So, have you done any exercise recently?
Do you really...
In sports?
You really have to ask that.
I've been doing a bit of walking to the shops.
What the hell is that?
How dodgy. How dodgy did that sound? That's er, that's Simone Junior. Where's my mummy? I can't really hear it very clearly. It's just children playing clearly
just children playing outside
are nice
is crazy so it's on
on those horrible
it was the whole
hot warming
we what is this what is it like easter holidays make you want to have to be a
man
you're like of the age to be a father Oh god what I think you are too aren't you
No you're more
You're getting past it
They seem like they're having a lot of fun then
What are they doing
Actually
There's something I've been meaning to say
Oh yeah
I'm I run
my own babysitting service
and uh
from home
finally
you've announced what your job is
to the world at large
I was ashamed but I now realise
there's nothing to be ashamed of
it's an honourable job
absolutely man it's a noble job,
and it's very important.
What's the name
of this company?
Simon's Babysitting
Company. Right.
It's not even service, it's company.
Do you have a van
with sweets written
on it, scrawled in black
paint?
Yeah, and I just pick up...
See, the parents don't actually know that I'm babysitting.
It's like a surprise.
Yeah, a surprise.
When they find out.
They're so relieved to see that their children are okay.
What kind of things do you do with the children
While they're in your care
We play a bit of Han
Heroes of New Earth
Are they any good
Nah they're all terrible at it
But I'm pretty bad at it too
Simone's getting excited
Because she's playing the Valkyrie
And that's her favourite character
Oh yeah I like the way Joan's getting excited because she's playing the Valkyrie. That's her favourite character. Oh, yeah.
Okay.
I like the way you don't do any kind of physical activity with them.
Sadly, you can be a player playing on with them.
And then I send them outside to play.
They've got their headsets on.
Oh, man. That's pretty funny. All these kids with their headsets on. They... Oh, man.
That's pretty funny.
All these kids with their headsets on.
Oh, bless them.
So, yeah.
Actually, one of the things you sort of skipped over
was going back, like, quite a way.
We were talking about, like, speciality foods and drinks.
Yeah.
You never answered my question.
What my speciality is?
I mean, if you like...
Pimms.
With pimms, I guess it's pimms.
Yeah, so I did give you the answer.
But is it not anything...
You just weren't paying attention, Lewis.
Well...
As per usual, roll my eyes into my head.
Yeah, you didn't give me the answer.
So you should ask me, like, that question, or some of the questions that we've had asked.
And stop me prompting you into all these directions.
What, now? You want me to ask now?
Okay, uh...
We should really...
We have to have a...
Listen, listen, listen, listen, listen.
We have to... Stop it.
What? I thought you wanted me to ask the question.
Listen for a second.
Give me a second.
If you were making cocktail, what cocktail would you make?
There we go.
So anyway, I was thinking that I'd probably make something with...
I'd probably use, like, tomato juice.
And make, like...
Right.
No tomatoes, just the juice.
Tomato juice. Yeah just the juice. Tomato juice.
Tomatoes.
Yeah, tomato juice.
Like V8, that vegetable drink.
Oh, that's pretty horrible, that stuff.
You just make...
No, more like a sort of a Bloody Mary thing,
but something a bit more...
very thick.
If I'm going to make like a cocktail,
I'd usually like use some sort of fruit,
so I'd use like mango juice
or something that makes it very translucent
is that right? No, opaque
translucent you can see through
you want it thick and translucent
yeah opaque
so like
a gloopy kind of really thick
thicky
sort of fruity
like an aperitif
aperitif
isn't that like a starter?
Aperitif.
But, I mean, that's not really...
It's not refreshing,
and it'll fill people up.
People will be, like, full
from your big, fruity, juicy cocktail.
I suppose yours is a bit more high class, isn't it?
You could serve it in little, you know, fluted glasses
and have a strawberry floating in it.
Yeah, My cocktail party
and dinner party is going to be
so high class.
We're going to have champagne flutes
and we're going to drink tea out of it.
Sorry.
Is that going to be the
starter? PG tips.
Are you going to have the tea bag in the champagne flute?
I'm going to leave
the tea bag in the champagne flute or are you going to... I'm going to leave the tea bag in the tea
and just hand them...
In the champagne flute.
And I'm just going to hand it over to them
and say that I'll just give them some bullshit about
I went to
Inca and
I travelled around, I spoke to a wise
man. Which means you went to Inca.
Inca. I went to Inca.
It's a place. It's not a real place Lewis it's not a place
it's an ancient civilization that no longer exists it's a place Inca it's a place I've been there I
spent I spent my summer there I went to Inca it's a shop in the high street stop criticizing
it's like banana republic I went to Inca. There's a shop in the high street. Stop criticizing.
It's like Banana Republic.
So I went to Banana Republic.
Fucking hell.
Yeah, so I went to Banana Republic, and there was this old man, this really old man.
And he was so old.
His wrinkles had wrinkles.
His skin was dark brown, like leather.
And he handed me this drink, and he said to me,
Simon, Simon, you drink.
You drink of the tea of the Inca people. Oh, goodness me.
What did she say?
After I...
After I was done laughing,
I took the tea that he proffered me,
and it was a champagne flute
it was like
the finest
crystal glass
and in it
there was tea
with the tea bag
left in
and um
I drank the tea
Simon
your drink
what the fuck
was that
I had to think up
an Inca
that was amazing
I don't even know where Inca is.
It's not a real place.
It's not a real place, first of all.
The shop.
Oh my goodness.
So you...
Oh dear.
What else did this ancient sage...
What other wisdom did he impart upon you?
He wasn't a wise man.
He was just some old dude
whose house I was staying in.
He wasn't like a witch doctor
or, you know, like a
sage or a prophet
or anything. He was just some old dude.
Did he not have any, you know, wisdom?
He did. He said to me,
Simon, Simon,
when you go out back and use toilets, careful not to fall in a hole.
Right.
Wise words.
And that was good advice, because I did almost fall in at one point.
It's a fine way to drink tea, though.
And people think, you know, when you're posh, you drink tea out of, like, a china cup.
That's not right at all.
It's a misconception.
You actually drink it out of a champagne flask.
Isn't there something dodgy about putting boiling hot liquid in a glass?
Can't it, like, shatter it or something?
That's what I sort of...
I'm not quite sure why it might shatter.
That's why the water has to be cold.
Oh, so it's like iced tea?
No, not iced tea.
It's just like room temperature tea.
Very strong because the tea bag's been left in it.
So it's sort of stewed, tepid tea in a champagne flute.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
And it's got no sugar in it.
It's got no milk in it.
And it's got a tea bag floating in it.
It's probably really high in antioxidants.
That's probably why they live for so long, the Incans.
Does the teabag have a string on it?
Or is it just a bare teabag floating, bobbing on the top?
Because you can imagine it would take up the top of the champagne fluid.
So when people tried to drink it they'd have the tea bag constantly
like rubbing against their upper lip yeah i mean that can happen it's certainly a risk
drinking tea this way um so that's your first course basically you'll come dine with me
yeah that's my first course all of that conversation That's what they get as they enter
So what's next?
What's the next course?
You've obviously gone around
Your son, Simon Jr.
Has probably gone around holding
A glass tray
And he's got the champagne flutes
Yeah
And he serves them to your guests
The outfit he's wearing
It's just made out of cardboard though
Because I
I'm too cheap to actually buy
Like a miniature sized waiter outfit
It's covered
Coloured in with felted pen
Yeah
That's exactly it
Yeah
So you
So you've got some
Some
Some roasted peanuts
For your hors d'oeuvre
Yeah
I've got some cheesy watsits
And then they all come in Cheesyuvre. Yeah. I've got some cheesy watsits. And then they all come in.
Cheesy watsits, nice.
I've got the dips.
The dips are Nutella,
Marmite,
and peanut butter.
Mmm.
So you've got some crudites.
I think they're pronounced
crudite, aren't they?
They're like...
Crudites.
They're like sticks of celery
and stuff, aren't they?
Well, I don't have celery.
Carrots.
Or carrot. And pepper. I don't have Celery Or carrot
And
Pepper
I don't have pepper either
It's
It's
What do you have
Potato
And
Because
It's chips
Because raw potato isn't
Chips
Because raw potato isn't that nice
A plate of chips
I fried them
Raw potato isn't nice. I fried them.
Raw potato isn't nice, so I fried them.
Yeah.
I'm liking this.
McCain does some very good
crudites.
So we've had a nice
high-class cup of tea.
Some crudites, some hors d'oeuvres.
And then we're going to go on to the starter.
So we've all sat...
Where are we sitting?
Oh, fucking hell.
How many fucking courses are there?
Do you watch Combine with me?
You know it's like this.
Where's the...
Where do we all sit around in your...
We sit on the sofa bed in the living room.
With the red wine stain on it.
I might put a throw over it.
So I guess you've got some...
I don't actually have any throws.
I could put a t-shirt over it.
I could put my Superman hoodie over it.
Is it big enough?
No.
Who am I talking to?
Whoa!
Easy, tiger!
Sorry, friend.
You know.
Easily big enough.
So there's about four of us there.
Me, Hannah, Lelna, obviously, as well.
We've come round.
We've had this lovely appetiser.
Now we're sitting on your sofa.
You're all sitting very, very close to each other
because it's quite a small sofa.
Right.
So you're all squeezed in together, knees touching.
You look a little bit awkward.
It's a bit uncomfortable being that close.
That's okay. For these people.
That you've never met. Yeah.
So the starter is going to be
soup. Okay.
Because that's a traditional starter.
How are you going to serve it?
It's going to be some... in a bowl.
Right. How are we going to... With some bread. How are we going to negotiate this? It's going to be some... In a bowl? Right. How are we going to...
With some bread.
How are we going to negotiate this when we're on the sofa?
I'm going to bring in the bowls and put them on your laps.
And then give you a spoon.
A dessert spoon.
Because I confuse dessert spoons and soup spoons.
So you'll have a dessert spoon and you'll drink the soup.
And it'll be lovely.
What kind of soup is it?
Oxo.
What do you mean, Oxo?
You mean Oxtail?
Oxo, no, Oxo.
Oxo soup.
Oxo are a brand of...
They do little cubes.
Oxo are a brand of chicken stock cubes.
Yeah, it's chicken soup.
You do these little cubes and you crumble them up and then you add hot water and you've got, like, chicken soup.
It's amazing.
That's chicken stock.
That's not chicken soup.
I have it, like, almost every day for lunch.
That's chicken stock.
What do you mean?
That's not chicken soup.
It's soup.
It tastes of chicken and it's wet.
It's, like, broth.
It's fucking chicken soup.
What else could it be?
It's, like, barely...
Yeah, it's delicious.
Add it to rice and stuff if you want to give rice a bit of flavour.
Oh, I know what, I could put some pasta in the soup as well.
Oh sure, go ahead.
Put pasta in the chicken oxo.
What kind of pasta?
The little bow tie ones, I'll put a few of those in.
Okay.
I mean that is classy as fuck.
This has been brilliant.
Now it's time for a bit of entertainment.
Do you have any kind of entertainment laid on?
I could do impressions for you.
I'll stand in front of you and I'll do my famous impressions.
Go on then, just give us a little rendition of what you might do in your normal act.
Oh, God.
Well, I would say I'd have a bit of banter With the audience Which would be

Yep.
Um, hello, I'm Pearson.
I'm on a boat.
I don't know why he's on a boat
Can we stop this please
Can we stop this
No we're going to keep going
Until you say some funny ones
I'm a constipated old man
Okay so all of your impressions are pretty much Mr T
But that's fine
That's fine
They're very good
I paid a fool
So who
What's next
In the main course
Are we still sitting in the lounge
Or are we going to move
Move room for the main course
We're going to stay in the lounge
But we're going to move over to the dining table
Directly behind the sofa bed
We probably should have been on there
For the For the soup but I didn't really think.
Yeah.
The main course is curry, my famous curry.
Oh, of course, your famous curry that you mentioned earlier.
Yeah.
I cook chicken in the oven.
I bake it for some reason.
I don't cut it up and fry it.
It would only take, like, five minutes, but I actually bake it. Really?'t cut it up and fry it, it would only take like five minutes.
But I actually bake it.
Really? You cook it in the oven? That's pretty interesting.
And then I tear it apart
with my teeth.
Doesn't it sort of dry out?
And I spit out the chicken
into the curry mix that I've got.
I sometimes put raspberry jam
in there too,
because it just gives it a little sweet kick.
It's a good idea.
Good tip for anyone making a curry.
It's true.
It's true.
I put raspberry jam in there.
Is that a real tip?
I don't know.
Yep.
Really?
You should do.
It's really nice.
Okay, I might try that.
I sort of don't trust you, though.
I've learned, like, when you're...
I wouldn't joke about curries.
You know how serious I am about curries.
I guess, you know,
we're nearly finished. Is there any
dessert? Yes. What would you do for dessert?
Dessert is going to be...
This is the best meal. Best bit.
This is the best bit. This is what the whole evening has been building towards.
I thought so.
I could tell.
My souffle.
Oh.
Mmm.
Wow.
The patented Simon's souffle.
Okay.
Made by...
I've never cooked a souffle before.
Simon's Souffle Company.
But I thought I'd give it a try.
Yeah, I've never...
I don't even know what goes in a souffle.
You don't even know what it is, do you?
I think it's like egg white and flour or something.
I don't know.
It's egg white and flour.
So you...
And you put it in a little bowl.
Right.
And then you put the bowl in the oven,
and it rises if it's done properly.
And if it's not done properly, it doesn't rise.
That's correct.
Well, there's a bit of an art to it, isn't there?
Because you mix it up a large amount, but not too much.
It's an art form.
It has to be light and fluffy.
Like a sheep's belly.
Delicious.
So I'm looking forward to that.
That sounds amazing.
It's going to be a good evening.
It doesn't sound disgusting at all.
What would we do?
What would the entertainment be?
I mean, afterwards, would we have a game of poker?
Or Star Wars Stratego?
No, no, no
Don't be silly
Just watch some telly
Watch Hollyoaks, you know
We'd play a bit of Han
Of course we would
Everyone's brought their laptops
And we create an ad hoc LAN.
So we go into separate rooms.
Four heads, it's on.
You're in the toilet.
What?
And occasionally I'll come in.
I won't make eye contact with you.
And I'll just, like,
start pissing without saying a word.
Through my legs.
And you'll...
Yeah.
Oh my god. What the hell? That is fucked up. And yours... Yeah. Oh, my God.
What the hell?
That is fucked up.
That is fucked up.
Jesus Christ.
I won't be paying any attention,
because I'll be so concentrating on, like, you know,
the towers are going down and stuff.
Pwning noobs.
Oh, dear.
And maybe later on, I'll get out a little...
Like, a paddling pool.
An inflatable paddling pool.
And I'll fill it with jelly.
And I'll just stare at Hannah.
Okay.
And then like nod, nod my head towards the paddling pool.
The paddling pool with jelly.
I won't say anything.
Yeah.
I'll just imply that something is required.
I'll just be subtle.
I'll just like take my shirt off
and make my nipples dance.
Goodness me.
Anyway, so I've had a lovely evening
and I'm leaving in the taxi
and now what's going to happen is they're going to interview me
and say, you know,
and they're going to ask me questions
and I'll answer, like, what I thought I had to raise.
Oh my God, this is my favourite bit of the programme.
I love this bit.
Yeah. They're driving home in the taxi, so they say, I'll answer like Oh my god This is my best This is my favourite Bit of the programme I love this bit Yeah
They're driving home
In the taxi
So they say
Oh well
I thought it was
I mean
I didn't really like
The soup
The soup was
A bit sort of rancid
It tasted
It tasted like
Simon's socks
The curry was lovely though
He did so nice
With the curry
And the little boy
When he performed
On the recorder Was Was the little boy, when he performed on the recorder,
was the highlight of the evening, really, for me.
So I'm going to give him four.
Whoa!
Four?
Yeah, man, four.
You piece of shit.
Well, the jelly paddling
pool
for
it wasn't really
to my taste
you know
I'm a bit more
high class
I like the tea
the tea in the
champagne flute
was a master
stroke
that was good
the 5p
naan bread
was very good
with the curry
enjoyed the
naan bread
put in the toaster.
Yeah.
That's nice.
That was a nice touch.
And, uh...
Four?
Yeah.
That's really harsh, man.
I mean, that is such a bad score.
That's below average,
that four.
Really?
I don't think anyone ever
gives each other ten, though,
do they?
And nines are pretty damn rare.
Yeah.
Happens now and again, but... Also, shouldn't our scoring system be at 15?
Hmm.
It's the Yogscast way.
4 out of 15 is even worse.
What's that?
Sounds like James Bond, but really bad.
That's the Come Dine With Me music.
Good.
Well, that's the end of that.
We'll just end it now.
So, let's talk about the executive producers and stuff. end of that. We'll just end it now.

Since your reviews are pretty rubbish,
I guess the humour is what makes me love it so much, he says.
So that's a little bit of a...
What's it called? A double-edged sword of a compliment. OK. I don't know. I don't even know if that's a little bit of a what's it called? A double-edged sword of a compliment.

Oh, no.
Left for dead.
So, shit, I realised, by the way,
that it's election night coming up,
and we haven't actually talked about the UK election
in any way, shape or form.
So it might be good to just, you know,
hear who you, you know, think you're going to vote for
Oh god
Because some yognauts obviously look to us for guidance
I don't know if this is going to be out in time
Might be
Maybe we could just glue this on the end of the podcast
Who do you think
I mean what do you think
I think everyone should vote
Liberal Democrat
And fuck tactical voting.
To be honest.
Fuck it.
It's not worth it.
It's not worth you compromising your beliefs
just to get someone in particular out of power.
It's just not worth it.
It's ridiculous.
It angers me that people feel they have to do that. Labour's shit not worth it. It's ridiculous. It angers me that people
feel they have to do that.
Labour's shit. Tories are shit.
Lib Dem probably are going to be
shit as well. But they're the lesser
of three evils.
The classic party which I think
your glots will be surprised to hear that
you're not voting
Monster Raving Loony.
Which is obviously something which we... They just assume that because I'm a Monster Raving Loony, which is obviously something which we...
They just assume that because I'm a Monster Raving Loony,
I'll be voting Monster Raving Loony.
Is that how it works?
Aren't you, like, actually a Member of Parliament
for Monster Raving Loony?
I am.
Not under my real name, though.
I like...
I'm Dame Honeydew of Gnomeregan.
But obviously, because you're a member of the Monster Ravage Loony Party,
you're not going to vote for the Loony Party.
You're going to vote Lib Dem.
Yeah, I can't vote for myself, Lewis.
You can, actually.
It's immoral to do that.
Like, David Cameron gets a vote.
Yeah, but it's immoral to do that.
He can say, I'd like to vote for myself.
It's bad sportsmanship, Lewis.
Is it?
You know, you shouldn't vote for yourself.
I suppose so.
Yeah.
Also, if Michelle Skortos is listening to the Yoggpod,
I hate you.
I hate you.
She's going to overtake me on Island Paradise. She's going to have more XP. She's going to overtake me On Island Paradise
She's going to have more XP
She's going to overtake me
Is she a yognaut?
I think so, yeah
She's a member of the yogpod group
Which I was made an admin of recently
Yeah, you're just ruining the Facebook group
Yeah, I don't know if anyone could
Pinpoint the exact time
That I was made made admin of that group
I'm going to post the Monster Raving
Loony Party manifesto
on the
Facebook group so people can have a look
Alright, that'll do
I just thought I had to add in something to do with the election
on the end of the podcast
Yeah, because we often do political
coverage, don't we?
We cover the current affairs, the big news of the day.
I mean, for fuck's sake, all we usually talk about
is fucking Tina Barrett,
who hasn't done anything in, like, ten years,
and Warwick Davis, who also hadn't done anything in ten years,
but is now, thanks to being flushed down the loo
some kind of major fucking celebrity again
it's like we're
I said before
it's like we're not cursed
we're the opposite
we're like booned
we have the boon of the yog pod
if we mention someone they're made famous
apart from Tina Barrett
whose career is still languishing in obscurity
yeah, but one day she's's gonna get this enormous record deal and just get catapulted
into the limelight.
Yeah.
It's gonna be us.
I'm sure that's gonna happen.
It's gonna happen because of us, man.
