Happy Tuesday, guys.
Welcome back to the best podcast of the whole entire world.
With me, Jessica.
And me's really quick.
We hope you had a wonderful week, and you love last week's episode.
We hope you're all rich in your little piggy banks.
A lot of people are saying they feel inspired to be better with their money now, and I agree.
Same.
We need to have our meeting with her, don't we?
We do.
Organise our little pension pots and all real.
We're not letting that slip because we need to sort that out.
Did you speak to your mum?
No, but a well.
She must have not listened yet
because she likes to text me one thing a week
that we've said that the grammar's wrong
or that we've got the wrong word
or, you know, she likes to connect us...
She was a field day with me.
Yeah, I get one a week at least.
She also said that we don't look at the cameras enough.
And what I had to remind her of was
it's not a theatre performance.
Like, we're speaking to each other.
Yeah.
I think you're quite good at looking the camera,
but I'm speaking to you.
I know, but I think we need to remember that.
We've done three seasons where it was just a month.
like so it's quite difficult to look and also a lot of people still listen so your mom's
clearly watching on youtube right watching and writing down notes as them exactly but she does
need to get a well so I will be telling her that get a will point at the camera and tell her all the
cash money mum or the dollar bells oh yeah we've had a studio upgrade guys we are the
favourites. Well then what I would say is the more like seedish professional room. We had a
clapper board at the start just there. Murray did it and we're in a bigger, darker room which is
more soundproof. It's a larger set. We've got a brighter floor. We've changed a few pictures
around. We've got some fresh flowers. Can you see them if you're looking on YouTube and it's
looking more professional? So we're going to switch up. So if anybody has any gorgeous things you want
to add to our set, feel free send us them because we'd love them, you know?
We freebie. A wee, do you me? Love a few bit.
I don't know if I can touch you anymore.
Point.
So.
We've got a spitter swallow, which is a beverage this week.
You've seen this all over Instagram this week.
Right, so I got this from my client, Modern Love Store, right?
She said you better try them on the podcast, so you were.
Anyway, what we were chatting about when I was with her was,
this is quite a good drink for, you know, a lot of people don't drink anymore.
Yeah.
But you don't want to just, you know if you're in a Saturday night making a nice dinner?
But you still want some of it refreshing and you're not drinking but you don't just want to coaxiero
because you drink that all the time.
Quite a good option these.
So they're called Living Things and it's a gut friendly low sugar, prebiotic soda.
Oh.
You'll be into these.
Low calorie, high fibre.
I don't know what else that says.
Anyway, one's raspberry and pomegranate.
Pomegranate.
Right
And one's peach and blood orange
What one would you like to try?
Oh, blood orange
I love blood orange stuff
You try that and I'll try the raspberry one
Speaking of blood orange
Has anyone read the book
Blood Orange
Because that was one of the best thrillers I've read
So we all need to send you that book after
How's your book going?
You started it yet?
Ask me next week
Cheers
All right
All right
Living Things
This is actually gorgeous
Branding
Is it a Glaswegian
Thing
No, I don't think so
Do you know what I like when I can's that
matte textured way?
That was London
Boo.
It's all right.
I was just holding up to the camera there.
I think this one's quite nice.
I mean it's very refreshing.
That was some ice would be gorgeous
with a straw.
Do you want to swapsies?
do you know what it's quite like dilutin juice but it might like it's maybe a wee bit diluted
you know what I mean two billion live cultures
that's what I was going to say out but I didn't know what that meant
it's just the things that go into your gut
all right
to the billion bacteria fucking hell yeah that's high that is very high actually
yeah they're all right
I prefer that one yeah I definitely prefer this one
this one's a bit to is the word bitter
I struggle to piece words with flavours
What do you mean?
So if you're describing something
If I was describing a flavour
Yeah like I'm not sure
If it's like bitter or not
Or like I know when something sweet or sour say
But like bitter or
See if there was a flavour in something
Like specifically that I didn't like
You can't pick out what it actually is
Yeah like say it was a lot of herbs
right?
Erbs.
I don't really know what one's what.
Okay.
Apart from coriander because I hate that.
Is that an herb?
That's an herb, yeah.
But anyway, I was just thinking to that there
because I wasn't sure whether to call that better or not.
Parsley repeats on me bad.
There's one in like mixed Italian herbs
that I don't like and it's quite strong.
Could be tarragon.
Oh no, it's Tarragon in Italian herbs?
That's really strong.
There's one that's just too potent for me.
Maybe
Can I ruin the vibe
Oregano
I think I need to have them individually
It's definitely not basil
Because
I have that on its own
What do Americans call
Corrianda
No is it a pepper
Araigola or something
What is Corrianda
They don't call it Corrianda
Can't remember
Corny
Corny
Golly
Anyway
Yeah I would definitely
swallow that
But it's not
I'm swallowing
That aspirating
and spitting the peach and orange.
Yeah.
That's what I'm doing.
But I've been too busy down in bloody orange Lucas Aids and Coke Zero's
because of the hangover we've had so we can talk about why that happens.
Yeah, so we had our busy brunch at the weekend, everyone.
Quite a number of people have told me that I wasn't sober.
He was not.
But none of us were.
So it was fine.
I know, like, I feel like I'm getting quite pinpointed as a drunk one,
and I think that's unfair, an unfair allegation.
No, I don't think you were the drunk one.
At the stage of the event, you were definitely the drunken one.
Afterwards?
Out of us too or out of the whole...
Oh, out of us too.
Oh, no, yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, not in the brunch, hell no.
Thank you.
But I think by the end of it, I took the ground.
I think everybody in Glasgow.
The whole nation.
Fuck me.
I just think, look, we hugged every person to walk through that door, right?
Which was a tough, tricky start for you?
Yeah, which is really kind of us to do.
However, a few of people actually said themselves, are you finding this quite tough?
I'm not going to lie about it, yeah, it was.
But only, do you know what it is?
It's more because not everyone's a hugger.
No, they're not.
And also, I think when we started hugging a few people at the start.
Kind of set the tone.
It was like, we can't not hug everyone else.
Obviously we wanted to, but it was a, do you want to hug a,
us, I'm not sure.
There was a few that like
scurried away.
Yeah.
I thought good on you.
No, nine times out of ten
it was a beautiful hug with everyone
and everyone was so lovely.
I was just quite like
conscious of getting like makeup
and stuff on people's clothes.
Even I'm in a night out, I'm quite like
especially when someone's wearing a light colour
because we were.
I had foundation on my shoulder
yeah.
You brushed it off.
From all the hugs.
But I feel like that was
a nice start but that's when it was like the interactions were high so i needed a few circles
we didn't get a drink until about half 12 do you remember because when we were stood there we were like
we really both need a drink welcoming we didn't want to take the cocktail on arrival because we didn't
think there was enough for us so we just left it we were the last to eat as well true so we'd had
i think by that point there was a bit of drinking before any eating yeah and then the shots of tequila
started going around it was honestly guys just brilliant but i think the first couple of hours for me was
a bit of a blur because I wanted to make sure that everyone was settled and understood
how the day was going to go.
The running order.
Yeah.
And we went around and gave everybody a little card and they had to write a question or
a bit of an embarrassing story or, was it an embarrassing or funny story?
And I'll be honest with you, there was 140 people there.
I didn't think that everybody would give us a card back, but they pretty much did.
And we have a pile like that of embarrassing stories that we cannot wait to do.
share with you because we could only share a few
couldn't we? On the actual night. Yeah, because
we wanted, the main thing was having like the singer
and all that going. Yeah. Let's talk about them. They were amazing.
So we had Alicia from Lux Grooves
DJing. And if you live in Glasgow, you might
have seen Alicia at quite a few events because she's probably one of the only
female DJs that are kind of at these things, isn't she? Yeah, she's really good.
She's amazing. She brings vibes. And then we had Natalie
James doing the singing. Yeah.
She's also on, like, Lux Groove's books.
I think that's kind of like a me musical agency thing.
And she was really good.
She was a party starter, weren't she?
She had a sequin jacket on, and she just had such good energy.
I, like, the perfect person to be, like, come on, go up and dance.
Like a little pocket rocket, weren't she?
Yeah, like, strutting out, trainers, not on?
Yeah.
Loved it.
I was jealous.
So she did two 30-minute sets.
We, everybody had a brunch, settled in for that, got to know each other.
Because what I didn't realize until...
maybe like half an hour into it when I was going around speaking to everyone,
that there was tables and booths of people that weren't there together
because everyone was in a table of either six, eight, some of them were like 12.
And they were mingled in parties of like twos, threes.
And by the end of it, everyone made friends.
So nice.
Because I would almost expect that to happen if I went to an event like that,
especially because there's only a couple of us.
Yeah.
You don't really do a lot of tables or two at these sort of like party style events when you think about it.
Yeah.
So I like that and everyone seemed to go on.
Yeah, really well.
And just go and dance with people dancing on the seats and everything.
We had one guy come, apart from Richard, he turned up for an hour, just for some food.
And then there was one guy, and he was great vibe.
So he obviously had to pick him out of the crowd, like we did at the Christmas live shows.
As soon as they came in, his pal said, well, he was the only guy here, and I said probably,
and I was able to talk to you later.
But I actually think he got light off lightly.
You did.
I bought him a shot.
Next time.
And I just think...
People dancing on the tables, chairs.
I know.
And they were getting trouble
And I was just like, fuck it, go back up
And then it's going to happen
But then he passes the mic
And you were singing Mamma Mia?
Do you remember that?
Well, what I'll say is
You brought it back to my memory
You got the mic and you were like, yes!
And the whole crowd was...
I think it had to be quite well, didn't want to give it back.
No, you didn't.
Do you know what I will say, though, like I'm quite passionate about singing
but see when I take the mic on that sort of thing
or in karaoke,
the pressure of singing to a certain volume
gets me out of breath
and I don't perform as well.
It's perhaps when I'm in the shower or the car.
Do you know what I mean?
We could get quite breathless
whereas I think I just need to calm down
and just give it wrong.
And just live in the moment of it.
Yeah.
Well, it was honestly brilliant guys
and Murray
we saw was there filming everyone.
Murray say hi.
Hello everyone.
Yeah, we gave him a mind.
Why are you calling him a Wiesel?
Well, because he was there and let me finish my sentence,
we got the video back at 6 o'clock that evening of the event.
We were in Kittier Shays because the rugby was on
and our phones pinged and the video was already edited of the full day.
He just can't beat that service.
You cannot.
We love you, Murray.
And everyone else loved him.
I gave money a hug when he was leaving.
Same.
I was very surprised I got a hug from Zuli.
I actually remembered at the time thinking he's probably fucking else about much.
So, Marie was there, and it was just fantastic.
And we've got Alan and Graham.
Well, we're in separate rooms now.
We were in separate rooms before in the other studio.
But now we've been really far.
But I think they've got a mic.
Alan, say hi.
Hello.
Yay.
So you're not getting away from now.
It's cemented love.
Okay, guys.
Well, thanks everyone who joined.
for the brunch?
Marie,
what were your thoughts
on the brunch,
actually?
I've never been
in our room
where I was able
to disappoint
150,
140 women at the same
time, so.
Why would you
disappoint them?
Look at me.
You're perfect
in every way.
So, yeah,
it was great fun
and we're definitely
going to continue
doing it because
we've realised
that we are really good
events planners.
Agony.
I feel like
when we originally
were going to do
the brunch,
It wasn't going to be as, not as fun as that, but we wanted more.
We wanted the goodie banks.
We wanted DJ and singers.
Yeah, because we felt like, although we did bring the entertainment in the Christmas show,
we had the mic the whole night singing.
We wanted to just maybe calm your ear holes for the next event and leave it to the professionals.
Yeah, for sure.
So we feel like we want to continue doing more.
So tell us what you want from us, really.
We've got loads of ideas.
We obviously want to try and meet as many of you as possible.
But we just, we need it to.
be fun and we still want it to be intimate interactive yeah and I think so many of you
commented afterwards like oh we really wish we got tickets and but also just a big thanks to
the brands that helped out because we gave really cute wee goodie bags which took us 10
hours to build and pack so we had so long guys actually I tried to get Sweden we had we were
we were we were we were still tying the ribbons on them at 5 to 12 and it started 12 just to let
know um so anyway we were well yeah we were and my mum's getting all stressed
wouldn't she?
So we had
Mini Empire Biscuits, of course,
from Plant Blonde.
They were amazing.
Raspberry taste-tested one.
People were so happy
when they opened a goodie bag
and they were like, Plant Blonde Empire,
I'm like, oh yeah,
it's like of the Gucci of Empire, isn't it?
Yeah, I know, it's all like cutely wrapped and stuff.
By the way, we got them. We stick at them.
Yeah, that was another thing.
We wrapped 140 Empire Biscuits.
And then we had little mini
IOPI, El Paradise Waters,
because we love that.
Which, by the way,
that was decent.
I'm not talking like a mini, we're talking 100 mil water, which will last you ages
and perfect when you go travelling because that's the size I take when I go away.
It is a perfect wee bottle, actually, because it's cute, be thing.
And then we had a lot on your plate stickers.
Can you see you on the camera?
Which, by the way, I don't have a single one of them, can you believe it?
I know.
Well, we had more than this.
We had pod pig, but a little piquanty.
We had Fairfox.
We had...
A lot on your...
A-L-O-Y-P
and our smilies
So if you have
A laptop, an iPhone case
If you're rich, bitch enough
To have a Ramoa suitcase
Or just a normal suitcase
Stick it on, taggers
Please and show us
Because you want to see
The world
However, there was a few messages
The next day saying
I feel like my goodie bags
Lying all over Wunderbath floor
Or I've left it somewhere
And I'm like, Jesus Christ
No, what will be best?
But anyway, really good
wee goodie bags
Oh no, there was a voucher in it as well
for two for one burgers at August House
or two for one pizza and honest ed
I think that's class by the way
it is class well done us well done us and we
and we individually handwritten
the labels on your
goodie bag it's all like a one to one personal experience
from us you see love Jess and Zoe kiss
and we put the wee love heart sticker on it as well
we went everywhere to find these stickers this is the thing right I used to work in
events so I can't
I can't see past those things
yeah there's the they see the things that other people notice
I don't care if they don't notice it I like to know that we've done it
do know what I mean I do feel like people do notice
people do notice the final details maybe not all the time
but there will be some people that be like that's a nice we touch
yeah for sure but I think it's important yeah and we enjoy that
part of it yeah it's quite stressful and like we've got other things to think about
but that is part of the fun for me and we name
named three cocktails. We had a tequila cocktail called the Piggy Paloma. We had... Paddy's Punch,
I believe. Paddy's Punch, which was Jamison Whiskey. And the third one was Disco Sprits.
Disco Spritz. Does anyone have any of them? I didn't... All I saw was Prosecco and Tequila Rose.
I saw the one with the grapefruit, which was the... Well, that was a welcome drink, the Paloma.
Was that the Piggy Paloma? Yeah, but I did also see a couple of espresso, Martini's kicking about it.
Loads of people drinking them.
That's when you're absolutely out for a day out, by the way.
Because the heart's going.
Yeah.
You're drunk.
There's some people there for their birthdays.
What was the table in the corner in the back room?
The circle table.
Because then when we were doing it, we were like, oh, we really wish we could sit on that table.
They were great fun.
Well, do you know what?
Everyone was great fun, but they were steaming.
Because you're in a good location.
Like this evening in the corner, like you're kind of packed away, but in quite a good way.
You can just do what you want
but they could look out and see everything
The food was nice
Honestly
Can't recommend it enough
It was hosted in Ghost
If anyone doesn't know where that is
Which is a great restaurant
We've spoke about that a few times before
So it was lovely
Can't fault it
Can't wait for another one
When's next?
Perfect, perfect
Perfect
When is next is the question
That's not to tease anyone
I don't fucking know either
It'll work it out
I really want to do another
We really want to do like another
Big Huge Bongoi Bingoi style
Christmas at then, don't we?
Let's make that happen.
And then what else
we've been up to it? So the next day
I don't know why we
made plans for the next day.
Guys, I didn't get out of my bed until half past three in the afternoon
and I haven't done that for
four years I think.
And I was in bed at one. I mean
it's not the latest, it's not the worst
but considering... I think that's tragic.
Do you? No, I don't actually.
But that is late.
To me now.
When you're out from 12 in the afternoon, yes, that is late.
Bear in mind my dad picked us up at half eight in the morning to take us to ghost for nine.
So we were out from that time.
Yeah, not drinking until 12.
And I also didn't eat that much because when you're at these things, you just don't eat.
It's not your priority, is it?
You're not there for the food.
So, yeah, me and a few friends stayed out a bit longer and ended up my night in Blue Lagoon Chippy,
had a pizza crunch for the first time.
I actually didn't like it, guys.
I thought it was minging.
That's a shame for me
because I was looking forward to that.
I think we're going to need to try it again.
Yeah, like a fresh one, fresh out the friar.
Because it was a bit soggy in the middle.
Was that setting in the bed, do you think?
Because I thought it was a fritter.
Right, okay.
So if anyone doesn't know what a fritter is,
because, by the way, they're, again, a Scottish thing.
But it's just a potato, would you say, like a round slice?
Yeah, I would say like a slice of potato with batter on it.
Yeah, yeah, that's what it is.
But it's like round, and they're so good.
good, aren't they?
That's good on a roll
with some kind of sauce on it.
Oh.
A wee rolling fritter.
I also went to the chippy
when I left about 10-ish.
I had to leave because I was so hungry.
I couldn't function anymore
because I was so hungry,
I had a headache and I was about to fall asleep.
And I got, which is disgusting
actually, in reflection.
I got a sausage supper
so the battered sausage.
So a sausage supper
for anyone again that doesn't know
what that is, is basically just like a meal.
So it's like, and you get two battered sausages here in Scotland, not one.
So it's pretty hefty.
What was the need for the two sausages?
As soon as I opened, I was at Wies or two.
It's always two.
I don't know why that's a thing, because battered sausages are big and...
And you get the chips.
Yeah.
And I think that's why you don't say supper.
You would just ask for one with chips.
Anyway, what do you mean?
Like, I think the supper makes it a meal.
Two with chips.
Oh.
I think that's what it is.
If you just said sausage and chips?
Yeah, I think so.
Because I've said this on my Instagram before.
If I say sausage and chips, I would get an unbattered sausage with chips.
I would have to ask for a battered sausage.
And can you get that there?
Yeah.
So the battered thing is still a thing, but it's just not automatically that.
But you don't get battered mars bars or battered pizzas or battered potato.
Right, okay.
Apart from obviously, well, a chip's not battered is it, it's just deep fried.
But, yeah.
Interesting.
Anyway, I got that with, so I'd ordered that, and then I saw on the board that it had
chipped cheese and curry sauce and I just thought
I could really go that so then I just thought
I'll just get cheese and curry sauce
on my sausage suffer
which I'll be honest
I had the full sausage
and then I didn't eat any more of it
because I was done in by that point
had one sausage and that was it?
Dodd chip probably but
didn't eat very much because
you know that way as soon as I had the dirtiness in my mouth
I realised how mingin it actually was
but I was just so desperate for like the worst
did you go to the chippy
that was near George Square
or did you go to the one that's near train station?
George Square.
Yeah, same.
That's kind of where you always end up after night out these days, isn't it?
And also, guys, how random is this?
But at one, half one in the morning when I was absolutely,
what's the word that you got called in Nottingham?
Abliterated.
Did I say something like that?
That was me.
I'm at the Chippy queue,
pointing my big fucking fingers,
like, I want that, and then I turn around,
and then I'm like,
Hi, I know you
And there was a 25 man stag do from Leicester
In the Chippy
I can't go over that
I haven't seen them for years
And I was like oh fucking hell
Messaged me the next day
Like you're right I'm like no
Nor are you
No
So are they actually just up here
Because Glasgow's a good place to be
They were here on his stag do
And I was like that's brilliant
Because I do genuinely think
A lot of them would go to Edinburgh
I would say
Why I do not know
I'm not slagging Edinburgh
but I genuinely do think
I mean
I genuinely don't think
Edinburgh is that good on a night out
where the fuck do you go
I have no idea
and I think that's even more studenty
than Glasgow potentially
nice bars but even then
Tiger Lily
is it Le Monde
and then you've got the
the one that we do actually love
that we went to with Rich and that
where they do the
drag show
Brueh
Brahemia. That's great fun.
Nothing was coming to me there.
Prohemia is great fun.
But Glasgow, I genuinely think, has got far more live music venues or pubs.
I also think it's because everything's a bit closer as well.
Yeah.
So it's more like you go into the city centre and you're there.
Everything's around you, but Edinburgh's a bit.
You've also got, I suppose, in Edinburgh, you've got the three sisters and the grass market for like lads, lads, type vibe.
I'm thinking stagdo here.
But a friend of mine actually from Leicester has messaged me the day.
and she was like, hi, I'm like planning a trip for my friend Tendu, and where can I go?
There's like 20 of us in Edinburgh, and I'm like, fucking hell.
But you know?
Yeah, that's what I said.
I don't know.
Yeah.
But anyway.
Anyway, we digressed.
We digressed.
We went to, we went out for a roast on Sunday.
Yes.
To the...
In hindsight, like you say, we planned it because we thought it would be a good idea because
you do brave that.
Yeah.
And I guess it was, in a way.
It's just the thought of getting up and getting there, isn't it?
It was meant to be at two, but then we changed it to 4pm so the boys could come as well.
Yeah.
He was in a little bit hungover from his rave in Manchester, wasn't he?
Not three nights before.
Jesus.
He wanted to see some house DJed, didn't they, or something?
Oh, fuck, no, it was honestly.
Richard was in a extremely hyper mood, and I was like, can't deal with you today.
He was, like, big day out vibes, and we're all, like, deed to the world.
We don't want to be here, Rich.
Quite a shame, actually.
So we went to Duke's umbrella, which, by the way,
I would really recommend because it also had a singer
Yes, from 2 to 5 on a Sunday
2 to 5 and he was like
He was quite edgy vibes
He was, he looked to be like Noel Gallagher didn't he
Yeah like quite kind of old school
He had very much like Noel Gallagher
Yeah he did, wasn't him
But anyway I would really recommend that for a roast
I think it was good
And I think the highlight for me was the haggis
Yorkshire pudding
It definitely, it was a great meal
deal as well, wasn't it?
It was a starter in the main for 30, 30 quid?
Or was it less than 30 quid?
No, I think it's 30 pound, eh?
And I had this, well, me and Jason had this amazing ham hoc and lentil soup.
I tried that, it was good.
Really good with a big bit of sourdough.
You and Rich had...
Patty.
The patty.
I've just got a thing for patty when I'm out.
I love it as a starter.
Yeah, it's lovely, isn't it?
A wee bit of chutney on top.
I don't know what their side thing was.
It was like, I wouldn't say it was chutney because it was smooth.
but it was like
that sort of colour
and that was really good
that on top of it
Rich was drinking
but we all had Pepsi Max
which she were delighted at
because there was a Pepsi Max
galley
aren't you
do you know what it is
I forget about it
I would never ever
ever buy a can of Pepsi
Max or Diet Pepsi or anything
for the house
but you prefer it
but I prefer it
I think that's very white
it's a wee treat
when you're out
when it's like oh we don't have
yeah it is it's much sweet
it's much sweet
sweeter than coke
And then from Maine
I had the chicken
I had the beef
Jason did the beef
and Rachel who had the
Venison
Venison
It's a bit of an extra supplement there though
But it was
He said it was lovely
I had extra gravy
It was like a red wine
Jou
So it was rich
It was quite a rich
But do you know what
Was the highlight for me
The roast potatoes were class
Yeah they were good
They were so good
The only thing it was missing for me
Maybe a bit of mash
But I could
I can go over that
the roast potatoes are good enough, but cauliflower cheese.
Guys, can we just, can we have like a public service announcement to all the roast places in
and around Scotland, please fucking serve cauliflower cheese?
I think that's a given for a roast. If I ever roast at the house, there's always cauliflower
cheese. Honestly, the best roast dinner that I had in Manchester at Firehouse, they serve it with
cauliflower and I think it's leek, cauliflower and leek with like a nice grating on top. It is beautiful
and it honestly makes it
the haggis stuff
Yorkies is a nice treat
that was an extra side
but it's like
it's their sort of special
isn't it
we need that creaminess
or something
even mac and cheese
or something
just would have been nice
I think there might have
been mac and cheese
on the
not on the side though
not sure
but I would really recommend
going there for a roast
I would say it's
better than a few
we've had up here
yeah I agree
nice atmosphere
I think the place is nice
yeah
to look at it's quite
I know we're not
lovers of
dark rooms as much but on a Sunday
cozy cozy
roast vines nice because it was Paddy's day
it was packed yeah
singer and then when we were leaving
we saw um
the boys from open goal podcasts
they were in there having their roast
and they were saying how well done to us and
we need to get them on this podcast
and we need to go on there's a different dynamic in it
yeah I think we need to get someone on like that
and it's like we ask all the questions that
you know when you're seeing someone quite early stages and stuff
and you're like if a guy was to text you this or whatever what does that actually mean
because we should get Cy Ferry who is like the main guy of the pod
he is a massive foodie so every time we see one another we're always talking about food
so it'd be quite good to get him on to discuss all the foodie places
and then we could ask um it's Andy Slaney
what's the other guy go is it Kevin Kev I'm not sure
do you know worry
I don't know if I'm sorry.
And then Kevin Kyle.
Yeah, so those four and is that right?
Have I said that right?
I think so.
We should get the one and like you say, get their man's point of view.
Yeah.
Because I do think as a woman you have reason,
you have like, you justify everything,
whether it's bad or good.
And it's like something else that's probably a little to shame.
Yeah.
And then we can just rip the piss out of,
our complete lack of knowledge of football
well mine
I'm quite an expert
went to a game once
then we went to Lop and Scoot for some dessert
forgot about that
I don't know if I've ever just been in there
for a wee ice cream
and maybe having like a sunny day
of my own about in the West End
but I've never done...
I tell you where you need to mention Zoe
because we were going to go Tortilano
near mine because they do really good Raspberry Ripple
but you went somewhere and I don't think you spoke about it
and you said it was worth the hype
you got hot chocolate or something
oh fuck I
um la gelette
ladegele tassel or something like that it's called
let me just double check that because
you'll have seen all the
all the foodies and like even
Glasgow Implandes and stuff talking about it because it's very
where is it is it south side
it's um south side
strathbungo I believe is the area
of that street
I'm not sure
it's where that place
the bungle was
potluck used to be there
it's like one street
that's got like two
yeah
pot look what a great place
that was by the way
yeah it's leg gelatessa
so basically
Jason and Zoe really wanted
to get like a dessert
after Duke's umbrella
and we're gonna just go
we're gonna go somewhere
and have it
we were thinking about
minted in the West End
and you said you were really
craving Raspberry Ripple
when Tortoano is an audience
is known for their Raspberry Ripple
but we thought well let's just stay out
in town
thought about that but it was too far
so we ended up going loop and scoop
which is a good safe option
and I had a Bueno
bite-sized churros
and oh I had the Bonofi
one scoop of Bonofe
that was well good
I just had raspberry ripple
which was really good
but Jason had
the Milky Way one
and I tried about that
and that was delicious
I would never really choose
white chocolate that much
but I like it
yeah
just a wee touch of it now
again you know yeah it is nice so that's what we did with our sunday and then on monday it's
been bloody non-stop i went to see neal so you did how was that quite shite was it i'll tell you why
because basically we went to see him a couple years ago in the oh two wow that's good as in glasgow
yeah it's quite a small venue for him now yeah which was great because you feel you're right there
yeah we're standing i thought he's much bigger than the over there
too. I know well then obviously
he went to the hydro
and was it not for this time
no it was absolutely packed
a young crowd
and I don't know how they know who Neal is
what? I know
because he blew up on TikTok or something
that's exactly what Jason said
he must have a TikTok song
but the boys wear
gym stuff
why do
why do young boys go to concerts and stuff
with gym stuff on now
shorts and like a gym top
like an underarmour gym top
probably wanting to get like sweat
and then they have like their
their half-sip, like, tied, like, around there, like across her body.
It's just pathetic, in my opinion.
Anyway, so we went too early as usual.
Richard's the same, aren't he?
It's like, doors open my half-six, we go over half-six.
Why is that?
Anyway, we waited in the car, right, until about seven.
But Mario was his port, so we were like, when does he come on?
To be fair, that is why we went a bit earlier.
He sings, you sure let me love you.
Yeah, but what else does he sing?
Um...
Nothing.
Is it not anymore?
Fuck all else.
Oh.
Well, I'm sure he does but no one knows anything else.
So anyway, we weren't drinking either, out getting another water top up
and he came on so we missed the start of him, saw that song
and then this hype man came on.
And when I tell you he was on for an hour and a half before Neil
and it was this hype man whilst the DJ was on
and the whole time he was saying,
we're looking for three girls to get up and dance with Neil,
you know how to do all that shit.
Oh yeah, and then it's all over on TikTok the next day.
Yep.
the whole time he was doing that
they kept putting the camera
to different girls in the crowd
but it was the same ones that were dancing
like I'm not joking they were dancing
from the minute I stepped in at the minute I left
they must have been fucking done in
anyway and there was this is a really good one
that they kept going and she was pretty but it was quite
tic-toky dancing like going for it she did I wait like boobs sitting there
why is my toes curling
but also do you know what I know we were actually
standing up at the back of the stand there against a wall
yeah
you're standing
standing I know I actually went to the box office
when I got in and ask was any seats.
That's when you know.
That's when you know you're old or your
two-day hangover.
They were like, yeah, but you just need to pay for them
and I thought, right, it's no worth that.
So anyway, see every time
they put a camera on a girl.
They turned round and shook their bum
and I just don't understand why you would do that.
Like just a wee
is fine.
Two steps.
I mean, I say that. They were all pure doing like
all that.
I was traumatised for them honestly.
Anyway, so this guy was doing this for an hour and a half
and our backs were getting so hard
and I'm standing for so long
and um
Jason's got a bit of cold so that was coming on
so we just weren't in the
we weren't in the spirits for it
we weren't patching it because
waste the money in that
so anyway then Neil came on
sang a few classics then went to a few songs
that absolutely no one knew
no one was singing along
oh really that's annoying when they do that
because they're trying to push it on a shit
no one cares yeah
and then
sorry but you didn't
We heard he came on and sang
So Sick
Is that what that's called?
It's so sick.
And then we thought after that we'll call it a night
So we didn't actually stay until the end
We've seen it before
We've seen it before
Well I've seen a few videos
And I didn't actually recognise it
But apparently got the hype man back on
Because Neo's actually
Written more songs than he sings
That's right, yeah
Or like Rihanna and all that
So he did that the last time
But he sang them
So it was still good.
Didn't he write umbrella by Rihanna?
Yeah, thanks so.
He wrote quite a few.
He did a few of hers and a few other, like, iconic songs.
So it's just, see when you've seen it before in a more intimate space, it's never the same.
Yeah.
And I just don't think we were really up for it either.
So it's like, we did a bit of both.
Yeah.
It's like, yeah.
So it was fine.
But we went to that place before, what's it called, in Oddingstam Street?
Chilos, is that how you say it?
By the way, I went there last week as well.
Chilos?
Chilos, burger place.
Chilos?
Chilos, yeah.
It's around the corner from here as well.
But so it opened on Huntington, Main Street, a few months back.
Went there, had one of the best burgers and sweep potato fries.
I shouted all about the sweepstated fries.
Anyway, I think I had the wrap.
The raps were so good.
Went back and had it again, great.
Third time I went, which was probably.
a good thing because we need to stop going.
I know. It only opened a few months ago.
The sweet potato fries were so bad.
And I said to Rich, I was like, no, these are shocking.
And I've gone and told everyone on Instagram, like, these are class, the best trips
I've ever had. And then, anyway, he went back on his own one time.
I was like, I'm not getting them again. And then he said to him, oh, does Jess not
want anything today? And he was like, no, she said that.
She didn't like the few potato fries. And he went, I have changed a supplier.
So anyway, we went there the other day, and I said, I'll try it one more time.
I'll get a burger instead.
got one called, I think it's called the Godfather or something that they do, and it is so
fucking good guys. And I said, can I have a side of sweet potato fries? He looked at me,
but they're not the ones you like. I went, by the way, why is that? And he went, they were so
expensive. If you keep buying them, I'll change back to them supply. I was like, well, you
fucked it, mate. Well, I get sweet potato fries and I thought they were good. No, they were
good, but when I say they were the best sweet potato fries, I think I'd ever had. I don't remember
you saying that. They weren't, they were a bit soggyer.
So then I had the normal fries
They do this sort of
It's like their own sauce
Yes
Oh it was good
I can't even describe it
Anyway really recommend that guys
And which one did you go to the one in Odinger
Yeah
It's nice to sit in as well
We sat at the window and just watch the world go by
Do you don't me
A lot of people look in and I'm like
Yeah
I'd eat
What did you have a chicken burger
No we just both had
Like a cheese beef burger
Yeah
Really do recommend that
It's really nice
I would like to try the raps and stuff as well
because they look good.
Chicken wrap is class.
We also got some nuggets to share.
Yeah, they were good.
Quite like McDonald's nuggets, I would say.
And they do loads of stuff.
Anyway, yeah, a little shout out for them
because it is actually very, very good place for a burger.
Let me just check what I've got to tell you quite a few things.
Okay.
We need to go back to the brunch a second for a couple of reasons.
Oh, yes.
One being we've got a really hilarious story.
We must share it.
It can't just date of those 140 people.
And we can't wait.
And we cannot wait to tell you on the next week's episode
because next week we are going to be doing our sex episode, embarrassing story.
It's going to be so good.
But also, I don't know what got into me apart from 10 gallons of Prosecco,
but I was playing Cupid.
Yes!
My brothers recently became single, my big brother Adam.
And I would say...
My big brother Adam, not my 14-year-old brother, Ben.
just to clarify that he's also single if there's any children available
anyway and I thought there's quite a lot of nice women in this room
like when have you get access to all these people
like that it's not weird to speak to do you know what I mean
I mean I'm not going up to a stranger so I did actually do some
cupid actions and I think I might have
set him up.
Yeah, damn right.
With one of the pod pegs, so if you're listening, good luck to you, him.
Good luck to you, hen.
If it doesn't work out, we'll just let him date all the pod pigs.
I know, maybe we should do like speed dating, but with only him.
Yes.
Because you know, since we spoke about that episode, quite a few people came up to me as well
at the brunch and said, oh, by the way, I heard you talk about setting up that friend of
yours, please set us up with any eligible nice men.
So, potentially, we just need to get more guys.
aware. I know a lot of guys are aware of this podcast because so many do say they listen with
their misses. Or they hear it. But they have, they're with someone. Yeah, exactly. So we need
more, anyone got any hot brothers out there? And I'll make yourself known. Yeah. Or does. I need
to get my mom a man as well. I know. I'm surrounded by single people, sad life. So many people
are single wanting to mingle. This is the problem. I genuinely think we are going through a crisis.
people don't want to go on these app
I think we're also getting to that age
like the sort of sticky age
if you're really not 100% in it
people are shacking it off
because they're like I don't want to end up even older
knowing that I don't want it forever
but each needs every
imagine people being with someone
and they're just sticking with them
because they are aware of what's out there
it's wild out there
and they're like I'm just going to stick with this person
because it's a crazy place it is
because I don't want to be single
I'm not saying this from experience by the way
I'm just saying I know those people that all stay in an unhappy relationship
because they think fuck that
people just say all that's the thing
that's quite sad
anyway on a brighter note
read out this story
it must be shared
it's double-sided can you say
this girl
she'll be so embarrassed to listen to this but
you were iconic honey so you deserve your time to shine
I outed her by the way to the whole room
it was meant to be anonymous but I wasn't
haven't it.
Take it away.
One time I was steaming, woke up thinking I'd peed myself.
I told my mum, but there was no evidence of a pee in my room.
There he goes on.
I'm in the shower, ready for the pub round two.
I hear screaming.
Mum and friend are in my room whilst I'm showering.
I went upstairs.
At the end of my bed is a box with uniwork in clothes and a PLT bag opened.
with new clothes in it.
Mum screams.
The dogs were attacking the PLT bag.
So I looked.
It was a human shit.
I had come home and peed and pooed
into a fucking PLT bag.
Mum didn't speak to me for days.
P.S.
There was no smell in my room.
I'd wrapped it up like a loaf of bread.
This was only last year.
No recollection of it.
it but my shit
stewed in my room for 18 hours
it was finally
what a legend by the way
fucking hell
what actually goes for your brain
to think
I think it's the confusion
for people when they're drunk
because
you've had to
you need to push a poo out
let's be honest here
unless it's diarrhoea right
but that doesn't sound like it was diabetes
she wrapped it up that's a solid
and I just think
that doesn't just fall out
so you've not been like
oh fuck it's about to fall out Marsh
it's a process to get that from
inside out so I just
think it's that confusion
I also wonder you know if her friend wasn't there
or her mum would she have ever
told anyone that story
and also
would she have ever noticed and maybe
she would have sent the partial back
did I ever tell you about a time I had to poo in a bag
I think I did
no but I also had to put in a bag and we've spoken to
that in the podcast.
I remember my toilet
was blocked
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
we were having to do the toilet
and plastic bags
for like
oh yes
until it was unblocked
when did you poo in a bag
and how have we not
discussed this until now
we did because we obviously
spoke about it on the podcast
but when did you put in a bag?
When I first ever
I'm admitting this
when I first ever started
seeing Richard
yeah because you've never
admitted it up until this point
so what's changed
I'm aware that other people
are pooing in bags
so it's allowed
no I did have
I've told you this story
Were you sober?
Yeah, fully.
You've never told us.
I shrap in.
Guys, it's so bad.
So, I really hope that the person
who lived in this house, not listening.
So I first started dating rich
and he lived in Nottingham.
And I think I did tell him this story
actually because he was pissing himself.
And there was, it was like an old style
Nottingham house.
If anyone knows what they're like,
they're beautiful, but they're quite old.
Victorian houses, that's what they are.
And it was one of those toilets where you pull the lever
And it was always so dodgy
And it had to go down
It was three floors of this house
I had to go down to the second floor
Where his person who was living with
And his wife lived
He got up and went to training
And I thought I had the whole day to myself
I was going to go to the gym
And wait for him to come back
But I was desperate for a shit
I was desperate for a shit
Tyrol heads
Yeah
But I knew how dodgy this toilet was
And I thought I actually
Don't know how if I can do it
and then Richard said to me
by the way don't go down
don't use the toilet
it's actually broken
the levers stop working
right
so the only other toilet I could use
was the one on the ground floor
where the man that owned the house
with his wife was having breakfast
so it was in the kitchen
and I couldn't bring myself to do it
because I knew it was going to be a big poo
did you feel like the rumbling and all that
and Richard was in a loft conversion at the time
so he was on the top top floor
and yeah I just got a bag
and squatted it in his bedroom floor
and pooed in this bag
and it was the biggest poo
I've ever done in my life
and I remember thinking like
oh my God obviously when you first date someone
you just don't want to go to the toilet at all
so it must have been like a couple days
and I tied the bag up
I need to understand this is quite a lot of information
but I need to understand
did you go and get toilet roll from the toilet
and still wipe your bum
I think I had face wipes in my bag
right okay
so I tied this up in this back
and left it in this bag for a good half an hour whilst I got ready because I didn't know what else to do and then walk to the gym and as I got this bag I carried it out like see it later a bag of shit in my hand and I popped it in the neighbour's fucking bin outside of the house look do you know what as a comfort and thought we've all been there I had to do it we've all done things toilet stories I would have used the toilet if it wasn't blocked but what would have been worse me pooing in a bag and it get and no one I
never knew about it until eight years later when I actually finally didn't scare him off or I
blocked the toilet and everyone's in the house and it's left there I know and it was a big one as well
you know how I've spoke about my Malteseer poos before quite often I flush the toilet and like
one of them just stays have you ever had that before you Maltese like a little rabbit dropping just
doesn't want to go down yeah and it only happens when I'm in my own house because maybe I don't
know I think I must check everywhere else but Jason quite often is like
Zoe, you've done that again.
I'm like, it's just a, just flush it away.
It's a real teaser.
Yeah.
But it does stay sometimes.
Look, everyone poos.
I just imagine Graham and Alan in there.
Everyone is a human pro.
And if you don't, you're no well.
It's literally just, yeah, we have to shit.
But anyway, that was the poo story.
So hopefully, by us reading that out on the podcast
that you feel less bad about yourself, honey.
Yeah.
And I mean,
there's worse things that could happen
I think
for sure
you would rather
you would rather put in a bag and pull yourself
yeah you know what I mean
and there was a few in that pile of confessions
of a few people who shit to themselves oh yeah
well we're going to do the famous
sex story
episode three will that
be of that next week
so we're saving some of those stories for that
because there's really good ones and then
all of your lovely lot need to write in
and let us know
whilst you're just
touching on embarrassing stories
has anyone seen that video
that's going viral at the moment
of the Zoom call
the live stream funeral
and that woman is actually
in the shower
shaving her pubs
to hundreds of people
live streaming at a funeral
while the coffin is literally
being what?
I just, you'd need to put me in that coffin
with the person
I'd be off
honestly
I just cannot
I cannot
I just think I'm so confused how anyone can come back from embarrassment like that.
No.
Like I couldn't show my face in this world again.
I could never.
So we're going to move on to the bonus and talk about a few things that we've been buying recently.
Yeah, random purchases.
A few random purchases we've asked you guys as well so you've gave us a few.
but definitely think get your thinking caps on for for next week's yep yeah please send us them in
you're gonna have one day to do it all so listen to this podcast on the Tuesday and send it us that
night please please please we beg because honestly just by us being in that room of all those girls
that was only 140 there's thousands of you that listen to this podcast every week please send us in
DM us it keeps us young if you want to send it anonymous just let us know and we can I don't know
we'll set something up like an anonymous thing,
but we would never, obviously, disclose who you are,
apart from if you come to a brunch without you.
I know, sorry about that.
So, yeah, please do.
And also, I just want to end this podcast on a little slight sad note,
but a friend of mine passed last week really suddenly,
and his name was Will Skinner,
and I want to dedicate this episode to him
because he was a massive pod pig,
and I just know that he debriefed the episodes every week,
to all of his friends in Tokyo. He's got so many Tokyo listeners out there
listening to us right now, should I say. So hello to all you guys and this is for you.
Sending you a big hug because he was just an amazing, beautiful person full of energy
and it's so tragic. I was so upset yesterday but yeah, I just know that he would be
thriving his little tits off about this shout out honestly. Love you so much Will and yeah
just sending my love to everybody that's listening to this in Tokyo or any friends and family
back home in Leicester.
So yeah, let's go, let's fuck off.
Let's get out here.
Right, love you guys.
See you next week.
Bye.
