We're just kidding, just get it, just get it
Hi guys, welcome back to the podcast
Thanks for all the love and the shares
And please keep rating our pod
we love to see all those five-star ratings rolling in
ding ding ding ding ding
how are you Zoe
I'm good, thanks Jess
how are you?
I'm fabulous, I'm feeling fresh
and I'm feeling good
amazing what have you been up to
what have I been up to
I've still been keeping on my healthy train
I have been going to the gym consistently
this week and eating okay
I went down to London this weekend
that was really fun
maybe not so healthy but it was a good laugh
another trip without you I'm sorry
helped a friend move house and still been doing my manifestate, manifest, manifestation.
And things are going good, but I've got a positive outlook on life at the moment.
And that's because of your journal.
Absolutely.
I refuse to believe it.
Every day I've been saying thankful for the roof over my head.
21 hours later.
What have you been up to?
Well, I had a hendoo.
Who's hindo was that, actually?
My cousins on my dad's side.
and then I went straight down to Nottingham the next morning
for my uncle's sixth day.
Are you hung out of?
No, I actually wasn't because I kind of watched what I was drinking
because I had a five-hour journey the next day.
Yeah, it's long.
I was just really tired.
And then had the party that night in Nottingham
and then came straight back home the next morning.
So a bit of a whirlwind.
Who drove there?
Adam.
He drove.
So obviously I share with Jason
so I couldn't take the car because he wasn't coming.
So he had to drive, which annoyed me
because I prefer being the driver,
especially for long drive.
Yeah.
I find it much more relaxing and the time goes quicker as well.
Yeah, I get a really bad passenger sickness.
Yeah, I do too.
And I also get, like, you feel the car's much closer to things when you're the passenger, I think.
Yeah.
And I'm like, whoa.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, you do.
And he was like, don't start that backseat driver.
Yeah, no, I'm a bit like that as well.
That's it, really.
I'm not being up too much.
I've got a busy week coming up this week.
I'm off to Shropshire.
I've never been Shropshire.
Where actually is that?
Do you know what?
I don't know.
It's like, it's actually not far from the.
border of Wales, so the left.
How are you getting there?
Driving.
That must be such long.
No, five hours, similar to Leicester.
Oh, no.
But we're staying in like a really nice, me and my friend Rebecca,
we're staying in this really nice cabin stay.
It's got like a bathtub.
We're going to be wholesome.
We're going to go on hikes.
Still staying on the healthy train.
You can't let that journal down.
No, I cannot.
I might take it with me as well.
Rebecca would like it.
That's a fuck.
Yeah, don't take that like you.
That's too far.
So yeah, we're going to make nice.
breakfast and just have nice to a week.
But whenever me and her together, though,
we just drink far too much wine.
She's very, like, fancy cook with a glass of wine vibe.
Ooh, maybe on Instagram.
Behind closed doors, absolutely not.
Yeah, but what I mean is, it's like she wouldn't have her really good meal
without a glass, so then that encourages you both to have a bottle.
That's absolutely correct.
You want the next one.
Bad influence, don't we tell you.
So what's been on your physical plate, please?
So, me and Zoe actually have just been,
to the Udingston Main Street, which is where I live,
and I've got this bowl called Super Bowl,
and it's basically like Edomar Mae, what was it,
chicken, slaw, brown rice, just all the good stuff.
Oh, yeah, sweet potato with like some Japanese mayonnaise
all over the top.
It was stunning.
Vegan mayonnaise because we can't eat daily enough of the moment, yeah.
And we've been burping about 20 times before this podcast started
because we've got indigestion for me so fast.
But, yeah, it was delicious.
And then on my other physical,
plate this week. I went out to London. I went to a really nice restaurant called
Sikonis. It was in Shoreditch. Um, beautiful Italian. Think like Arincini
truffle balls. I don't think I've ever been there and I have been in Shoreditch a lot. Yeah, I haven't
either. Is it new, no? No, I don't think so. Is it spelled like C-E-C-C? Yep. And there's one in
Mayfair and there's another one but I thought it was quite a Ponzi place but when I turned up there
I was like, oh my God, it's really cute and quaint and it's actually below the Shoreditch house
Oh, right.
No, the Red Church Hotel, the one that people can go to if you're not a member.
Yeah.
That one.
So we went there, beautiful lobster pasta.
How do you say it?
I should know this, shouldn't I?
Cow de Pepe.
Never heard of it.
I don't know what it is.
It's basically cheese.
It means cheese and pepper.
Cheese and pepper pasta.
Gorgeous.
Sugo did it as a special.
Oh, right, okay.
Yeah.
What's been on your physical plate?
Well, we went out on Tuesday to Tingtai Caravan in Glasgow.
Yeah.
That was really nice.
We really rate that, everyone.
We had, yeah, definitely go and try it.
We had Massaman curry.
Yeah.
I had beef, you had chicken.
Yep.
And then we shared a coconut rice.
That was delicious.
And then the other girls got really nice stuff as well.
Pad Thai.
A pad tie.
Yeah, that looked really good.
Because pad Thai, to me, I always thought was the one that was kind of soupy.
You know the one that's like, cold watery?
Yeah, yeah, no.
But I don't know if it's not or if that was just enough.
No, that's a raiment.
Raman?
Raman.
Raven.
I think it's
Raman.
Raven.
What the fuck's Raven?
I actually know it's a Raman as well.
It's right.
It's definitely.
It is definitely.
Definitely that.
Okay, well, that's just up then, right.
Okay.
You looked to me like,
I thought of I've been saying that wrong this whole time, but not you.
No.
Yeah, so pad tie looked delicious.
And then Rebecca got some chicken thing.
That looked stunning.
That looked so good as well.
But what I've always said the downside of it was, those bloody prawn crackers were far too fishy for my liking.
Yeah, they were.
Yeah.
Staff were lovely, though.
That was just, obviously you were late, so that was just kind of like I get this whilst we're weight type thing.
Yeah, yeah.
So, like, don't need to get that.
No.
You look really skinny today.
Not true.
You do.
Keep looking at your waist.
Okay.
Thanks.
I'm just looking at you like, wow.
Wow.
Wow.
Sussing.
Got that out, gee.
No, don't.
Keep the compliments.
Keep the compliments coming in.
Right, so today we're going to talk about your guy's pet peeves.
Yes.
Which, some are really funny.
We've obviously got our own as well, but we'll keep it to a few because I could go on and on.
Yeah.
So we're basically.
hates every person on this planet earth and everything that we do loves and breathes
annoys me. They can't even believe I've lasted this long in this friendship to be
honest. We have a moment. We do. Well you have your moments with me. I'm just completely like
do do do do do she's my bestie. So yeah so we've basically put a question on our
stories by the way guys when every week we're going to try and ask a few questions on our
stories so head over to that and then it gives your chance to be involved in the pod as well.
Yep, and also don't hold back with what you write in.
I know there's, I think there's like a character count,
so see if you need to keep going.
Or DM is so that we have a bit of background behind whatever the situation is
because we want to know all the juicy details.
And we keep it all anonymous.
Do not stress your secret is safe with me.
Yeah.
Okay, so where do you want to start?
And obviously there was quite a lot of the similar ones.
I'm going to try and keep them, you know, together.
Pull them together.
Right.
Let's discuss my pet peeve and your pet peeve, and then we can go from there, okay?
Okay.
So, the reason we thought this topic,
was because I was on, just went down to London.
Now, when you go through the airport security
and you put your stuff on that tray
and when you get to the other side,
take your fucking tray with you.
It is so annoying when people do it.
But I need to know, are you talking about, right,
do you want people to lift their tray with their stuff in it
and take it away?
Or you just want them to empty the tray,
then get rid of the tray into the paint.
Okay, so there's two things, isn't it?
Obviously you are supposed to take it away,
which I have to admit I don't do
because I'm pretty quick
So number one
If you do that then fair enough
Then you probably do need to put it back
But when you take it off
Your stuff out of the tray
On the belt
You can't leave it there
Because then it's just piling and piling
And it does my head in
Really annoys me
I'm like a big Karen in the airport
I start pining up everyone's trays
Puffin and puffing
And I just thought
That is really really annoying
And then slow walkers
Slow drivers
Either or highly irritating
Yeah which comes in Maine
I hate people who have no urgency, but with anything.
It's like, I'm waiting on you and you're just suntering around.
Oh, look at me, I'm getting my stuff together.
Hurry up.
Yeah, speed up.
And then there's a couple, there's probably one that is a widespread annoyance.
And I have witnesses firsthand a few times, actually, with somebody that I've been with,
no one that you know.
But when you are eating in a restaurant, people that are rude to the waiting staff,
I want the ground to swallow me up, it's mortifying, don't do it.
I can't, they're just trying to do their job.
I do think that if there's a problem with your meal or anything like that,
you should always say because a restaurant would rather than them,
but there's just a way to go about it.
Yeah, but even just clicking your fingers over and all that.
Or not even saying please thank you or I always ask them how they are or whatnot.
You always get a better experience anyway when you're eating out.
But yeah, some people I've eaten with in the past have been mortifyingly rude
and I've been so embarrassed.
I also think a popular one would be, which is one of mine,
when you're in like the supermarket
and you're only buying one or two things
and there's someone in front of you
with a full trolley and they don't let you go in front of them.
Yes.
Because you do get a lot of people saying,
or you only get a couple things on you go.
Yeah.
See if they don't do that.
I'm like, I'm now having to stand behind you
with a full trolley.
That's a good one actually.
That is a very good one.
And one thing that annoys me in terms of like
relationship is when Richard does that
thing with his nose.
I've actually just done it there
and it's made me want to vomit.
You know when you don't blow your nose?
It's almost like sucking the snot to the back to come down your throat.
No, that's the wrong one.
That's like the spit.
Oh, like a groggy thing.
Actually, think of it doing it up your nose.
No.
It is disgusting.
It sounds like his brain's about to explode.
I'm like, just blow your nose.
I don't think females have that.
It's awful.
They don't have the ability to do, they horrible things.
Do you do that, Jay?
No.
Of course you're going to say that.
Of course he doesn't.
Yeah, that's my pet peeves.
I would say there's probably a lot more,
but, you know, they are main things
that I can think after that.
Another one we spoke about was
when people moan about the same thing
over and over again,
but they don't ever do anything about it.
Yeah, come on, chop, chop, hon.
I mean, we all do that about, like,
oh, I need to be healthy,
we need to go to the gym more,
but see when it's something that's actually really affected
and you, like, do something about it then?
Yeah, go through yourself out.
Yeah, very good shout.
Got read some self-help books.
Get your shoulder on.
Borrow some off me.
I've got a library in my living room.
You're selling them.
So, what's yours?
That all the ones you've done?
Yeah.
Okay, right then.
So I'll start reading some out then, let's do it, because there's some crackers on here.
Making the bed in the morning, do you like it or do you not?
I don't like making the bed, but I'm lucky because we've kind of got a rule of whoever's last in the bed makes it.
And obviously I get up and go to work, whereas Jason works at home, so doesn't go up as early as me.
So then he's always the one.
But actually making the bed.
Oh, you mean changing the bed sheets?
Putting bed sheets on.
Jason simply cannot do it.
And he's not up for learning how to do it either.
It has to be one of the most bittersweet jobs in this entire world, don't you think?
Yeah, because fresh bed sheets, there's no feeling like it.
Nothing.
Comparing them on is such a task.
Well, the thought of it's a task and then it takes you five minutes and you're like, oh, it wasn't so bad.
Do you iron your bed sheets?
No.
No, thank you.
Absolutely waste the time.
I'm about to go in and crush them all up anyway.
Yeah, I know that's true.
When you can see the outline of a boy's hand in their jean pockets.
No, because that's such a guy thinking, like, put your hands in your pockets when you're getting a picture.
That's an it.
Is it a bit like, it's been like the top.
Sox situation.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
I get that.
The phrase making memories, ugh.
Oh, that's kind of like...
I like that.
Live, laugh, love.
Live, love, yeah.
You don't know, you don't know you in a moment until it's a memory.
Or it's like, you know, people say, um, best holiday with this one.
Yes.
It's kind of, it's like borderline in that, yeah, boy did good.
It's borderline in that category, but not, that's not that bad to mind.
No.
There's definitely worse phrases out there.
I agree.
Quite a generic one that a lot of people said this,
when I have to agree, is loud eaters.
Yeah.
So smack in your mouth.
Sometimes I catch myself doing that with chewing gum sometimes.
I'm like, oh my gosh, stop.
Not like chewing out with your mouth open.
Sometimes.
But loud eaters.
My brother Adam was actually quite upset.
He didn't get a mention the last episode.
Or so far.
Just for no reason apart from,
he just wants to obviously get some attention.
So I'll give him a shout out now
and say he is the loudest eater
I've ever witnessed
Even if the mouth's not open
I can hear every movement
That is disgusting
You know when I was younger
My mum used to have a jaw
A jaw clicked
When she's got that
It's awful isn't it
It's as if it's crunching whilst he eats
But it just happens every so often
Throughout the meal
But it's like a big crack
That's gross
It's horrible every time it does
I look at him
He doesn't even notice him
Sorry mum sorry Jason
Leaving tea bags in the sink
that is just an absolute no for me
any sort of mess
that's left is a no for me
because you sponge out
yeah well I've got like to clean the dishes
the one that you put the washing up liquid
in the hand
oh yeah I've got that
I love that
but then you just need to give it a wee pressed down
in the sink and it'll kind of
yeah but it's all froths up
yeah but you just give it a wee soft press
and it removes itself
someone wrote
men
to right hon
people who hint for something instead of just asking
I mean it depends the circumstance you're not going to be like
definitely depends on the circumstance
hi mum can I get a house but you would say like
it's so hard saving for a house like
and it's a wee like hint hint you get any cash saved up for me
yeah middle lane hogs I'm one of them I'm sorry I am one of them
I think I'm one of them as well I would simply never move to the slow lane
never I'm never in that lane no I would actually say I'm probably more of a fast lane
hog.
Yeah.
And then I only move into the middle of someone's right up my arse
because that's a bit stressful.
When people,
oh my gosh,
I've got the ache for myself.
When people say veggies.
Yeah, but that's me.
I think that's quite an English thing is what I will say.
Eat your veggies.
Like you would say like Sano's as well.
Sano's, yeah.
But that is an English thing.
I can do hear people say that.
Well, I meant to say vegetables.
Vegetables.
It's long.
Vegies.
A driver not thanking me if I let them out
or and you know
but then this is the issue
then you start swearing at them
and then you stuck at them
with the red lights
side by side
I just think
why is it so hard to do a wee like
thank you
I know that is
that is really frustrating
just put your hazards on
for one second
yeah road rage is real
this is being left
beside the sink
when we have a bloody dishwasher
men
that's definitely a woman
speaking about a man
yeah 100% is
yeah that's you
but also
I now don't have a dishwasher
in my flap
see at home
Everyone wants you to rinse the dishes
before putting them in the dishwasher
And now I'm just like
What's the point?
Just wash it
Yeah
I don't have a dishwasher
I'm glad I don't have one now
Oh you don't do you
No
No I don't either
See if I had
See if I was more than two of us
Living in the house
I would probably want one
But see because there's just two of us
As soon as you finish your dinner
Wash your dishes
Dry them and put them away
No issue
Yeah but it's a ball
When you're making something like a roast
Or something like that
All the pots and pans are out
Or use one of Jess's recipes
You're here for days
You've got them all
husband's saying he'll do the housework
if I just tell him what's needed
just open your eyes
I can't even get into this conversation
I can't because Richard's got OCD
so I think I'm the opposite to this
yeah you're probably like the Jason
in my situation and the Richard
okay why does Jason not do anything
no he is really good at doing stuff
but it's more like there's just things that I do
that I know he simply doesn't even know as a task
like you don't even know that it's a thing
okay like dusting the window
Yeah, and we've got that dado rail thing around the hall
and there's no way he's taking a dust out of that
but you need to get...
Because it's got a net, like a ledge obviously,
it catches dust.
Yeah.
And then there was something else I thought of the other day
and now, I can't think.
Oh, we've got the ladder shelves in the bathroom.
Oh yeah.
He's never dusted there.
No, I don't think men really dust.
That's one thing I don't think they would do.
They don't because...
They love a hoover.
Love a hoover.
Love a hoover.
Don't it? Love a hoover.
Love a hoover.
They would do anything to hoover but nothing else.
No cleaning the bathroom.
No dusting, no cleaning the mirrors.
Yes.
Richard, are you listening to this?
Because this is our argument, okay?
This is aimed at Jason Jack and Richard Tate.
And probably all the other men out there, losers.
Gosh, men, tidal, women, clean.
Shut up.
Not because cleaning's so much more of a task than tidying.
Especially, we're both quite tied anyway,
so the tidings not an issue.
It is actually doing all of the housework.
And doing your dishes.
Doing your own dishes from your breakfast and your lunch when no one else is in the house isn't housework.
That's you cleaning up half to yourself.
There's just a severe difference.
I think you're going to be a very strict mama.
Oh, I'm strict.
You are.
Oh, another ick for me.
When people say 11 out of 10, 10 is the maximum.
Honey, I'm a 12 out of 10 by Christmas time.
I don't think that's that bad.
I think what's worse is like, you know, people say they think it's like 11 or reef instead of tenary.
It's not bad as that.
You, no, but that's actually a phrase by somebody saying...
They're always won up.
They're always won up from you, yeah.
Yeah, they've always got something better.
Leaving all the lights on.
Sorry, who's paying for this energy crisis bill?
No wonder mine, Ty.
I'm terrible at that.
I'm really, really bad at keeping the lights on.
I just don't really think I put the light on that often
unless it is dark at night.
But you don't live in a dungeon like I do.
I know, that is true.
Our flat is quite bright.
Apart from the hall, that's dark,
but you're not spending time in the hall.
Like, who spends time in the hall?
No, your hall is quite dark, isn't it?
Oh, this is a great one.
Burn.
Pyramids, I can't even read this out.
I'm not going to say the swear word, because this is a bit harsh.
Pyramid scheme people making more cash than me.
But do they actually?
Who knows?
I'd love to get someone on here who is top of the pyramid scheme, one of these jobs that they have.
And then they come on and then they actually disclose all the correct information.
not really earning sixth figure.
Yeah.
I'm just...
Because also, I would like to know
what the actual situation is.
Do they find it highly straightened
that no one ever replies?
Or everyone just shoots it down.
They've started sending voice notes in your DMs now.
Too far.
Too far.
But I wonder if they think,
no, really, you can make such good money.
Like, please reply.
But I think, you know what?
I genuinely do believe you can.
You must be able to...
But you have to be in it at the right time
and at the top.
And I understand that there is a lot of people
that can get into it at any point,
but I don't know it's one of those I don't really know
Maybe we could get somebody on the pod then
That was in it that came out of it
Because it was toxic and they realised there
There'll be loads of them
Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes right
We're going to make it happen
Also if you are one of those people
Please DM us and
Sorry for any offending
We're not offending anybody
It's just our opinion
It's true like I know a lot of people that have done
gone into Pyramid Scheme
and they've done really well for themselves
and I'm like, go you, hun,
that's so flipping brilliant.
There is a lot of people out there
that are interested in it
and there is also a lot of people
that have found the negative side
of joining the business,
it's not spoken about enough.
So, guys who don't smile in photos
and are always just like, straight face,
what is the need?
Maybe they don't like their teeth.
Maybe they're not confident.
It is a guy thing, though.
But then also, plenty of girls
never smell their teeth as well as good.
but it's too, like, posed now.
But I think guys like to have that kind of no expression,
like, don't mess with me or I'll fuck you up.
Yeah, right, like, tense in.
When they stand where their legs apart and they're like, tense like that, mingin.
People parking right beside you,
people parking right beside you when there's loads of spaces,
I agree on this.
Yeah, I agree as well.
And it's the same as when there's so many seats on a train.
Those are right next to me.
Those are next to me.
Because then you're like, oh, a wee sardine, like you don't want to move.
Yeah. I hate that.
People that answer the phone when you're with them,
well, you're looking if I ever even answer the phone full stop.
I mean, I think it depends.
Like, if my mum phoned me and I was with someone,
I would answer because you never know why they're phoning.
But I don't like people playing videos on their phone
whilst you're like sitting watching the telly
or sitting in a conversation because then they put the volume on.
Yeah.
And I'm like, you couldn't have made it more obvious.
You're either not watching this or not listening to what I'm saying.
and then it's two different noises at the one time.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That bothers me.
That's frustrating.
Men who do not put the toilet seat down after using it
and they've got all that yellow piss around the fucking seat
and then you have to get your little tissue wrap it up
and you go like that.
You ping it down.
You're like, ew, it, ill, it.
That is gross.
But why do they put them up?
So they don't splash, but they still do it.
But regardless, there's always going to be,
I know then the woman doesn't sit on the very bottom layer,
but they're always going to splash onto something.
So why not just peeve the seat down and wipe it after you use it?
Just aim well.
We're looking at G, like, any thoughts from a male perspective here?
You're going to be a tablicky drink now.
But what I will say, though, is on the flip side,
there's probably a lot of men that are like,
but why don't the women put the seat up for us when we leave?
Why does it have to be down?
Do you know what I mean?
Yeah, I've never thought about it from that way.
Luckily, I just don't have the seat up problem.
No.
Tapping me when you're talking to.
to me just don't now I am categorically the most maybe not in recent years but I'm a very
tactile person so if I'm talking to someone my I'm probably fondling your breasts as I'm talking to
you or touching your bum like I'm obsessed with touching people and if you're talking to me I'm
probably not even looking at what you're saying I'm probably looking at like your perfect teeth
or like yeah I'm very much like that I've never if I know you obviously if I don't I'm then
fine but if it's a really close friend
then yeah I mean I wouldn't
say if you don't know them you don't do it I think it
takes you a couple of seconds to warm up and then
you're touching them as well
or actually sometimes I think you're worse
because you're like oh my god look how
perfect they are and whoa and it's when you
walk up to people and you're like
he's gorgeous and he hears you
like we're all just sitting like oh
Richard says it's just shout it out loud
in the middle of a restaurant or
I've got on those people where I can't
hold back what I think if it's
comes to like what's the word like not so much beauty but just as soon as you see someone and you admire
something about them you just want to say it yeah and if i'm walking with richard my boyfriend and i walk
by a very handsome man all hell he knows about it and i go did you just fucking see him he was gorgeous
and he's like oh my god but now even when a woman walks by you know when you know that they're
looking at them and i'm like i'm going to beat you to it because she is hot yeah and i go did you see
her ass and he goes, oh, did I?
But I also think it's
nice that you can appreciate
someone else's good looking or
like they had a really good feature about them.
Like it doesn't mean that you're going to leave your current partner
and go with them.
I don't know where they are.
Absolutely.
No, I've just been like that.
So yeah, I am probably one of those people that tap.
I've never...
I don't think you are.
No, I'm not really touchy-feely at all
but if you, I was having a conversation
with you and you were touching me, doesn't bother me.
No, it wouldn't.
But yeah, I can imagine people that don't like it.
People take years to text back.
Yeah, you're absolutely shocking at that.
That I could have text you saying,
by the way, I've got three hours to live
and I'd be dead by 10.
I'm gone.
Oopsie, that was three hours ago.
She's dead.
Bye.
I just, what, I don't understand.
I don't know, right?
Because part of me actually wishes I was worse at texting.
At texting because I'm so available on my phone.
Like, see when you're texting.
me the chances I've literally seen it come through on my phone, either onto my screen
or up at the top because I'm already on my phone. And because I see it, I do just reply
straight away. Yeah, you're good about that actually. But I do think I'm almost a bit available
because... And then when you don't text me back, you're like...
Ding-me-me-me-me-ming-me-me! Because then I'm so aware of how long it takes for people
to text me back because I'm so on my phone. Yeah, so then you just think they're just being rude
now. Yeah. And even in work, we can be on our phones, like, for going on to our social accounts
and all that kind of stuff
so it's not as if I then have
even a job that I need my phone away
I know, yeah
so I'm really quite available
but I try to put it away as much
as I can just to be a bit more
present in the moment
I'm serious to all my fans
that are texting me
you've just covered this
people listening to videos on their phone
when watching TV
people not listening to you
because they are on their phone
yeah I'm bad like that
not you just
I think you are very in the moment
but if something distracts you on your phone
you can't do the multitasking thing
no like I could sit and type
or text out whilst having a conversation
I still know everything you said to me,
but you...
No, I can't do that.
Or zoned out.
You're either in the one zone or the other.
I was actually, when I was having dinner last night
with some friends and I was on my phone
and they were having a full-blown conversation with me
behind me and then my friend tapped me
and she went, they're talking to you and I went,
I did not hear even the noise of you talking.
That's bad, isn't it?
People that know me, they were used to it
so they're just like Jess, but I'm bad.
But I think there's pros and cons
because I really hear everything that's going on around me
so even in like work again
when you're trying to concentrate on something
even if I had my earphones in
I would never blast them
because I don't want to cut out any sound
in case someone's like shouting on me or whatever
but even with that
so I'm then listening to the music or podcast
or whatever is playing in my ear
I can still hear all the conversations around me
and I'm almost reading out what I'm typing
at the same time so it's just too much
multitasking queen
no I think it's more like
unfocused brain
Gunge.
People who pretend to be shy, but just, they are just really rude.
I don't know if I've come across anyone like that.
Probably not even, probably not even noticed.
Yeah, you're probably not even unaware.
But then, I don't know, right, because I wouldn't say I'm as bad now,
but I used to be quite shy in social surroundings of,
if I didn't really know everyone or quite a few of the people that were there.
Like, if you kind of joined up tables with...
Although, no, you people do think this about you, though, don't they?
You've said this to me before where...
Yeah, some people have said she's quite rude about me before
and actually I'm not sitting there thinking anything about you
like rude, bad at all.
It's more that if I've not met you before
I'm just not the one to jump into the conversation
No, you're not like that actually.
I used to get it when one of my friends
would get a new boyfriend and then you know
you kind of meet up with the then their group of friends
so that everyone can kind of mingle
and I would never, they always thought I was quite rude
but it was like I'm not the one who knows you though
so I don't really venting to speak about as such.
Like, obviously, conversations happen,
but I'll never be the one to say,
hi, I'm going to be, blah, blah, and start chatting.
Oh.
Like, I just kind of sit back.
Complete opposite to you, really.
Yeah.
They'd be interrogated in the first ten minutes.
Yeah.
But that's more because I feel quite shy and awkward.
It's not because I would.
No.
Another car part one,
people taking up a full section of the aisle
in the supermarket with a trolley.
You said that, didn't you?
Oh, yeah.
No.
But I do, I do know what they mean.
It's like they have it going the long ways, right across the aisle.
rather than just up beside them.
This is a good one.
Meeting a non-Skottish person on holiday
and they attempt the worst Scottish accent.
Oh yeah.
Because no one can do it.
No.
No one can do it.
Even in programmes, everything.
Why do you not just get Scottish actors
because you cannot do the accent?
That is true.
You are so shite.
That is so true.
And also there's so many different versions
of our accent as well.
Like obviously, of course.
There's all like the Highlands and all that.
But they always just try to the typical
Glaswegian and you just can't
like don't attempt it
and also I think if we tried to do it with other people
they would be like that's quite rude
but we've had a lot of people
message about the pod saying that Zoe's got a very
ASMR voice and it's very soft
and calming
maybe I should get a gig on the calming app
yeah put people to sleep
yes when they literally used to go
and they stroke the camera
and I'd be like
think about your day
think about what you're grateful for
by Jesse's journal
and go to sleep
that was gorgeous
I really would never have said
I had a calm voice
but I think part of it's
because I'm speaking against you
had a few people were saying
your voice was lovely
that's why I think
it's because you've got you're next to me
and I'm a big gobshype
but you
even your accent now
it's soft
like your actual Scottish accent
yeah
because it's kind of
I kind of one of the accents
it's not really anything that much
like I'm
Glasgowian but not
fully. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then I'm just...
Well-spoken. Like, Lancashire's just nothing. We just speak.
Speak. People being late, I'm the worst for it.
I actually moan at you, but I'm actually always late for everything as well.
When someone asks me what team I support Celtical Rangers, so if, so basically
meaning if you were on holiday and you tell them you're Scottish and then they instantly
think that you would support one or the other. Yeah. I mean, that's the
definitely a thing I've always had it in holiday and um like my papa who's into football but
neither of their teams he hates it because he's like why do people always think it's one of them
yeah but then at the same time celtic the best so hell hell the celts are here
oh don't get me started on football next one littering oh like chucking things on the ground
yeah like if you actually saw someone just throw a pitt packet i would want to go over there and
head but them. Yeah. Fold it and put it in your pocket for two minutes until you're at a bin.
It's disgusting. To be fair, I haven't seen it much like recently. Obviously you see litter
but you don't witness people do it as much because it is one of those things that is so...
I actually think people can't now because bound to be someone around you that would say
why did you just do that? And also why do these people want to walk around the streets to having all
this litter around them as well like flowing in between their legs? Why would you want that?
I agree
And let's do this last one
People with no spatial awareness
I definitely find that when I go on holiday abroad
Okay well that was fun
Lots of pet peeves
If you have any more send them in
We'd love to know
And we are now just going to round off
The last bit of the episode
I actually don't have a spit or swallow
for Zoe on this episode
But I do have one for the next
So we'll do the save that one for next time
I'm not going to put you through trauma
Every couple of episodes
Maybe so that...
But you're not too traumatic.
So we've asked you guys
what has been a lot on your plate
this week, physically
and I don't like the word mentally.
What can we say?
Emotionally?
Emotionally.
Yeah.
So someone here has messaged in and said
a lot on my plate this week
is I have been texting my ex
but her emojis are covering her face
so that implies that either he's not good for her
or...
She knows she shouldn't be texting him.
What are your thoughts on that?
I mean, we need a bit more background, don't me, in these sort of things?
Yeah, but I also just think, I think, thinking of experience that your ex is just your ex for a reason.
Like, get away from the situation because you'll end up back there and then regretting it.
And then you look back and think I wasted so much time.
And also, I think it's so back to go, so easy to go back because you're comfortable with them
and it's what you're used to and you're scared about not finding someone else.
Yeah.
And all that nonsense.
But actually, you'd still be together if it worked.
Correct.
I mean I've done that in the past before it depends who it is I guess but I totally agree with you once it's done it's done I think unless it was you know split up for a reason you went off travelling and you came back and then you're texting again but but looking at her emojis it's not a good thing yes she knows she shouldn't be doing it and also I think if there's no harm there and it was just like as you said it was for a reason of going separate ways for whatever yeah and like it ended mutually and amicably or whatever the word is
then it's maybe not so bad.
Yeah.
But if there was some reason that you split up, then just don't go back.
It's a waste of time.
Okay, that's our two-pence worth there.
Someone else has wrote here on their physical plate,
I got a fucking air fry over my birthday, and I am obsessed.
Is this what 28 looks like?
Yes, it is.
I've bashed it again.
I keep bashing my phone on this bloody microphone.
Yes, it is.
Congratulations on your new air friar and happy birthday.
You're going to live the dream.
How you get on with yours?
I still don't have one.
Do you know what? There's some amazing things in here.
Baked potatoes and cheese, pregnancy cravings.
We love a baked potato.
Hash prounds like five times a week.
Bread and alioli.
My boyfriend's mum drinks iron brew out of an Easter egg.
What?
What?
Truffle Marmite.
I'm not tried that yet, but it's meant to be delicious.
No, I hate anything.
My fear is mushrooms.
I can't.
Oh, I didn't like truffle though.
No, I hate truffle as well.
The smell, the look of it.
Is that not they have
and it's all like kind of like
spirited on top of pasta?
Everything about it
and then when I was at that hendon Friday
you got a meal with as well
and my cousin got soup
and it turned out it was mushroom soup
and it's just like a brownie grey
glibly soup with black dots in it
I would honestly
I would eat anything else
Mushrooms are category
the biggest devil food on this planet
agree fear
Heinz baked beans with sausage on toast
then salt and vinegar crisps
crunched on top
no that's like a spitter's bowl
to me. Yeah. Anyway, I think that's everything for this week's episode. Quite a quick
