Starting point is 00:01:03 Hope you had a gorgeous week. Kend? I always say, hope you have a gorgeous week, don't I, on Fridays. I had a gorgeous weekend. What did you get up to? Well, it's been a week since I've listened to us
Starting point is 00:01:13 if they're not on Patreon. Very true. So we hope we've had a gorgeous past week. Yes. What's been happening in the world? Bad stuff. Shut up, sorry. Love Island.
Starting point is 00:01:28 I love Love Island I've missed the boat guys I'm stressed about it because everyone's talking about it Which is silly because I'm going to put it out there And say it's the best it's been in years But I thought we say that every year No
Starting point is 00:01:43 They've switched up a lot of things Because I think they obviously had to get the viewers back up Right So they're doing things early Like the guys went on a day out Like beers with the lads vibe And then two bombshells came in and they showed the girls in the villa that.
Starting point is 00:02:00 It was on a screen. They got to watch the whole thing. Was it a megalith strip? I don't know. Because it's in New Yorker, isn't it? Yeah, no, but they were in a private place. Oh, right, okay. Send them out to the strip.
Starting point is 00:02:14 Yeah, but what? So, yeah, but no one knew who they were at that early on. I wouldn't know who they were. No, but everything they do is private. But... What are they watching then? Mingling with what? They're just each other?
Starting point is 00:02:25 Two bombshells came in. Oh, apologies. not three actually so they came and joined them on the night out I bet it first it is just the guys but they're saying like how are you feeling things
Starting point is 00:02:35 obviously they're told to ask about each other's couple so all of them are quite positive I would say so at first a girls are like okay like fair enough and then they see bombshells come in and like instantly one of them get their arm round one of them
Starting point is 00:02:48 said all like why is it arm round her and you just obviously pick everything apart but because all of this is new this season they will have no idea that they would even think to get film. Whereas obviously, like, you know Cass Amor's coming, you know you're getting filmed doing movie night and whatever. So people probably are quite wise to it now.
Starting point is 00:03:08 Yeah. But everything's new. And then they played Spin the Bottle, was that last night. And it was like truth or dare. And none of them, they all give zero fucks. Like everyone says what they think. Guys just laugh when they fuck up and they kiss other folk and the girls are like, right sound.
Starting point is 00:03:24 Like it's unhinged. But I reckon, I think what I always think about Love Island is when it's so early on in the week, nothing's that deep. And I know feelings get so heightened when you're with someone at 24-7, but they probably have to keep reminding myself, I have only met this bird like one week. No, I know.
Starting point is 00:03:40 Yes, I kiss another girl. This is the whole point of the show. It would be so boring if everyone got loved up in the first week. No, I know exactly. But quite a few of them are with the person they first got coupled with. Are they? Or the girl technically picked the guy off of a wee description. Oh.
Starting point is 00:03:55 As if it was like a wee dating profile. And they all put it to who they wanted. So everything, they've just changed, like, the games that they do, they now, they're doing like a game round to fire pit every other night to obviously make it juicy. And not the big challenges that they do that are silly where they're like sliding down a water slide and that. Yeah. But they made a challenge the other night where they had like a card like this and it said a quote on it that an Islander had said. And then they all had to guess who it was.
Starting point is 00:04:21 And then they ripped it off and saw what it was. But that one was like people talking about wanting threesomes. It's just been set dead juicy And we have to talk about the girl that I I think she's AI I think she is the first AI contestant So people are calling her Yaz GPT
Starting point is 00:04:37 She has AI She must be I refuse to believe she's human Yeah But she's like she's bringing the drama By the way I saw a TikTok last night About it was a Gen Z posting of video Saying like what about all the millennials
Starting point is 00:04:54 thinking it's chat GBT And I read the comments and everybody thinks it. Every single person was like, is it not? Like, my tongue does not allow me to say chat GPT. And that's so true. Chat GBT GBT just flows better. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:10 Chat GPT. No, it doesn't work. We know it's chat GPT. We just say GBT. Yeah. Why, though? I wonder why that is. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:05:19 It just doesn't. I think it's because we're used to saying great British pound. Right. Listen, talking about chat GPD, I was with my sister at the weekend who's 16 and she was Googling something she's actually just about to get her GCSE results and we were in a pub in West End
Starting point is 00:05:36 and I sat next one and she was on her phone what are you doing there? She was, oh I'm just asking chat GPT something and I went, what do you mean? You're asking them? She went, oh, I'm just asking them like something to do with SAT results or GCSE results or something.
Starting point is 00:05:51 Anyway, we're getting the car together later that day and I say to her I'll do me a favour and Google how far away so-and-so is. She went, okay, like, just literally put it in your maps and see how long it is. She started asking the chat. What are you doing?
Starting point is 00:06:06 She said, I ask it everything. And what? Even direction, she went, yeah. I was like, it's quick if you just literally just type in the location into the Google and just press start and tell me how long it is. She was like, oh, I didn't even think about that. She was like, everybody does this now.
Starting point is 00:06:19 I thought, what? That's crazy to me. I honestly could go into a spiral if I got deep into it, I think. It's taken over the. do you know all these videos as well have you seen it on tics like another trend it's like ask chat gbt what's going to happen or ask a i what's going to happen next and it could be a picture of me and you just sat here and then all of a sudden police officers will come in or take one of us away
Starting point is 00:06:40 yeah i've seen that i don't like it and whilst i've um whilst talking about her and her bloody phrases she said to me she went um we all had a group photograph and she went wow why i look mugged So what? And she started pissing herself. You don't know what mubbed is? Mugged. Yeah. And what would you think of mugged is?
Starting point is 00:07:05 If you looked at a photograph of a group of you and you said you looked mugged. I think I would take that as like, I'm a bit bloody or something. Nope. Ugly? It's so specific it actually made me piss. Nope.
Starting point is 00:07:20 So I said to her text and I thought like, remind me of that word. I said, and tell me exactly what it means. She put, okay, so like if you, and your friend, all your friends took a photo together and you look visibly better than all the rest of them, you mugged, Jess is mugged. So it's a good thing. It sounds negative to me. It does, isn't it? So if you're in a group and you're the one that looks amazing, but everyone else's like, you're the mug one in that photo. The fact that that's even
Starting point is 00:07:48 had a word created for that scenario blows my mind. It's kind of like you slayed, didn't it? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Interesting. She really educates us, I think. She does. She's very small actually, believe or not. Where is my sibling who's sick? He's a boy, so you get fuck off of him. Really? Yeah, no chat. Do you think he asks chat GPT a lot of things?
Starting point is 00:08:08 I don't know. I'm going to ask him. Yeah, you should. We've had a few people reply to us actually, and we asked, what's the craziest thing that you've asked? Have you seen that? I've seen that a lot of people are getting it to do photos of their pets with bathrobes and that on, and they actually print them and put them in their bathroom. Oh! Yeah?
Starting point is 00:08:24 I asked it to tell me what Winnie would look like as a human and it was like an old little lady with grey hair Yeah, I did that for cookie as well And it couldn't have been more accurate But I just think it's scary I asked something like it took ages And I was like fucking hurry up could do that myself by now I think what's scary is when you are scrolling the internet
Starting point is 00:08:46 And there are a lot of gullible people on the internet That believe certain videos that are completely made up And I think you can sort of tell there's another video that I saw in my newsfeed it was like two cowgirls kissing and they're obviously the most gorgeous typical looking cowgirls that you'd have they weren't real humans obviously and then AI had made them kiss and in the comments it was just all pair of you men like wow that's hot and I thought you dumb fucks you actually think that's real but even you can even see it when a hand was going
Starting point is 00:09:18 up her body like that it was like distorting and the lips didn't properly kiss Yeah But people think that's real You can tell if you pay enough attention But I do think on TikTok With everyone being so used to just scrolling so quickly It does take you by its price sometimes
Starting point is 00:09:34 Exactly Scary Scary, scary stuff Right Anyway What you've been up to What's been a lot on your plate this week? This week
Starting point is 00:09:45 Physically on my plate I went to Habibi Oh yeah So my dad came up with my stepmom and my sister So if you don't know It's near Yusebi Deli and it actually has a takeaway I actually have no idea what the takeaway is called
Starting point is 00:10:04 Maybe that's called Habibi as well Yeah because the restaurant's called Bazaar That's right Oh right yeah And it's a speakeasy You actually have to put a code in and go through like a big refrigerator door And you go down and it's all like moody, really cool Like Arabic sort of lighting
Starting point is 00:10:19 It's cool And the food was excellent So good I'll be honest and I was not really expecting to be that good actually because I'd like to try it the reviews on Google
Starting point is 00:10:29 were not like that high to be honest I was like okay very hit or miss but the food I had these sumac fries amazing piping hot
Starting point is 00:10:39 I had chicken and halumi kebabs they do this sort of side of rice but it's fried you know how they like scrape it off the bottom of the pan so it's like crispy
Starting point is 00:10:47 excellent I had an iced tea it's bring your own booze so it's not alcohol down there. The only thing I will say, and to be fair it was a Thursday night, so it may be different on a weekend, but I thought from the photos, and I thought it would be a little bit like sheesh, where it's a bit vibey in there, there's like some moody cool lighting, there was no atmosphere whatsoever. Like even, I think because there's no alcohol, even the bar looked bare
Starting point is 00:11:11 at the back. It was quite small. I don't know, I just, I think I was expecting more of a vibe in there. Yeah. But maybe it's different on a weekend. The food was brilliant. And it was so freaking cheap. Five of us, and I kid you not, we ordered so much food, Zoe, and we all had iced tea each and some cans of, like, it was like their version of a fanta. I can't know what it's called.
Starting point is 00:11:36 It was really nice. I had the old school peel back in a can. Did you remember that? I love that, by the me. Yeah, when you open it, but you peel it back. Vantage? Yeah, it was cool. 90 pounds.
Starting point is 00:11:47 90 pounds for five people for all, the food, the table was. mobbed. I thought was brilliant. That's another 20 quads each. I know. And we're very well fed. And I've missed something. I had baklava as my dessert because it was on the menu. I've got to have it.
Starting point is 00:12:06 Massive slice and it came with a side of cardamom vanilla ice cream. And I can eat it like, this is not ordinary vanilla because it said it on the menu. And they said that they ordered it by accident. Cardamon's like a type of herb. I think it's more used in like Indian food. It's really nice. You can
Starting point is 00:12:22 have it like infused in rice. Anyway, it was so good. And they said they're going to keep ordering it because it was excellent. And, you know, I love the calva and it was really good. So I recommend that, guys. Must try. Yeah, recommend that. And then that's, oh, do you know what?
Starting point is 00:12:37 I wanted to say this actually. When I went to, I went to Lus. And next week's episode, we'll talk about some really cool places to go in Scotland that I recommended to me for, if it's a nice day. Yeah. Because I messaged you and I was like, where can I go, Zoe? Where can I take my heart? I just feel like I say this.
Starting point is 00:12:52 same things all the time. Yeah. And I don't want to go too far. Yeah. Would you want to get there and the sun's nice? So I said nowhere too far, but somewhere that I can go that I can paddle board but just sit and chill. Anyway, we'll speak about that next week.
Starting point is 00:13:05 But I got a picky bit picnic from M&S. Perfect. From the step-in-went, so she picked everything. The perfect lunch, in my opinion. Yeah, so good. And she picked me two things that I thought were incredible. And this might be an acquired taste, but she got this marmite sausage rolls. No, I would love that.
Starting point is 00:13:21 Would you? because you're at Marmite? Yeah, like, Marmite. So I mean, they were so good. So freaking good. You know they do, there's little like pastry swells. Yeah. Well, these are like the Marmite sausage rolls.
Starting point is 00:13:30 I think it's infusing the pastry. Amazing. And mini pork pies, but topped with pickle, like Branson pickle in the top. Little miniature ones, bite size. Amazing. So there are two things that you need to get on your picnic next time you go. And then I made a nice new recipe for JustJess Food, which I think is going to be perfect, right,
Starting point is 00:13:50 for people that are going to their offices that don't have a microwave something to eat when it's cool and it's a bit summary it's really budget friendly it's got loads of pat with protein and loads of vegetables
Starting point is 00:14:02 good if you go on a hike good if you're on the go if you work in a work van or you're driving and it's just basically a tuna pasta like a cold tuna pasta salad but I've made it bougie
Starting point is 00:14:12 so I've bought some for lunch today so hopefully I can edit that and get that but I ate that for two days straight and it's beautiful and I bought it for us today to eat I can't wait to you so it looks gorgeous emotional
Starting point is 00:14:26 I'm just knackered guys to be honest fucking knackard I think Jensen's going through that four-month sleep progression so at the moment I'm really struggling to feel like how the hell am I doing it all we're going to holiday in two days
Starting point is 00:14:40 which I'm desperately need but then I'm thinking will I even get any sleep I think my saving grace with that is I'm going to have Richard with me 24-7 Yeah, I know. So I'll actually have a minute piece. And there's no, like, he doesn't need to go up for work or whatever,
Starting point is 00:14:57 so it can be one night on, one night off. Oh, no. And I don't know if I felt this way at every stage because I've kind of forgotten about the traumatic first few weeks already, to be honest. But I'm feeling more tired now than I probably was at the start. But you're also trying to do more now. Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. I think because I'm now getting back up to my normal.
Starting point is 00:15:18 normal routine and things in my life I may be trying to do too much and I just physically can't do it like I'm like I say I'm recording content again I've got so much good stuff finding the time to sit on my phone and do two hours of just editing editing each one I can't do it
Starting point is 00:15:34 I physically can't do it he then needs my attention or some it's just I'm struggling with that yeah that's hard I need a bit of it I need a break I need someone to come and take him for a walk for me for five hours and just give me time to sort of wardrobe, just keep on top of things, you know. Nursery, nursery's calling.
Starting point is 00:15:54 Yeah, it's too soon for that. Yeah, you need a few months. Yeah, even just having that one day a week, it would be bliss. Like even now, this is amazing for my brain. Yeah, having a day away, but I'm not doing anything productive at home. Yeah, exactly. You need like two of this, but not here. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:13 But it's hard because then I want to spend time with him. When I come home from work, I'm like, well, from here, I'm like, wow. I want to be with you all night. Yeah. Anyway, I'm not moaning, but I'm sure a lot of people feel this way. When it hits about four or five months, I have heard it gets a little bit tough because they're a little bit more awake.
Starting point is 00:16:29 Their wake windows, they want more entertaining. He's feeding a lot less, which is better for me. It's not as demanding on me. And he's sleeping pretty well throughout the night, but he still wakes up regularly. And I'm broken sleep maybe is worse than just not having any sleep at all, to be honest. Well, the problem is when you fall back
Starting point is 00:16:47 kind of a deep sleep and then get woken up again you feel worse like give you the nap Yeah You get that like nap feeling Yeah Yeah
Starting point is 00:16:54 But that's it really If anyone else is feeling the same I'm with you Because I'm just gonna ride it through You know Ride the wave Yeah I also went to
Starting point is 00:17:02 I went to Kelvin Grove Museum Before we went to Habibi Mm-hmm We thought I thought You know what we'll go there Walk through the park And get to Habibi
Starting point is 00:17:12 And it's bloody amazing in there Isn't it I haven't been for years I've never been on it think. What? It's free? I don't think I've ever been in that.
Starting point is 00:17:23 I don't think I'm a museum type of lassie. Do you think I am? No, I know, but I think because it's just at my home, I'm like... Sorry, I'm shocked by that. You should, because it is... You are very lucky to have that sort of museum in your hometown. Is that the one with all the hanging heads? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:41 People love a be insta pick of that. They do, don't they? I took a pick of my dad with the brand because it looks so cute. It's amazing. There's all of the history of Scotland, you've got dinosaurs, you've got all animals, Egyptians, all the history of all Queen of the Scots, everything. It's amazing. And my dad actually, they were closing, honestly, they were like, it was like a military operation.
Starting point is 00:18:02 They're like, everybody gets out, we're closing at five. I was like, fuck me. But they wish they had longer in there. Wow, my only appear, is it? And it's free. I was shocked by that. Because I went years ago, and I thought, oh, God, it's going to be about £15 pound a ticket and I'll have to sub everybody
Starting point is 00:18:18 because I've made everyone come. They're like, in you go. I think it is free because unless she just walked in. Well, no, because Murray, do you know if it's free? It's free, yeah. There's a donation box, but there's a suggested donation I think is a
Starting point is 00:18:32 five or otherwise it's free. Worry, isn't it a brilliant museum? That's amazing, yeah. Most museums like that in Scotland are free. One in Edinburgh as well, National Museum of Scotland. That's free on Chamber Street. Really? I used to go there all the time as a kid, so you.
Starting point is 00:18:44 See, I'm going to take gentlemen's a bit older. and show them all the animals. There's a few interactive things as well to do with kids. It's massive, though. It's on both sides. It's humongous. And if you actually go into the center of it, like the main entrance and you look up, and there's, um, what is, do you know what that's called, Marie, where it chimes at like
Starting point is 00:19:01 one o'clock and it's huge orchestra. Oh, the organ. The organ. The organ, that's it. The organ. Amazing. Have you ever? I think it's on it just once a day.
Starting point is 00:19:10 It had the time on it, sorry, like the day of the time that it was going to do its thing. but if you actually look up and see the ceiling amazing I'm really honestly don't think I've ever been in there okay another question for you have you ever walked around Glasgow
Starting point is 00:19:24 and looked up city centre and looked up at the shop front what on McAnne Street it's everywhere especially Merchant City probably not which you know I buzz off the place where your dad works
Starting point is 00:19:39 I think it's the most amazing building ever I also love the set chambers yeah and I love the bank No, I've looked at the city chambers No, next time we go to Glasgow, right, this is pure geeky but I don't know, I just love architecture, right? But actually look up and look around all the buildings
Starting point is 00:19:55 and just see how incredible Scotland is. It's fucking amazing. I probably have done that. Like I know that Glasgow's got amazing buildings in it. Yeah. But I've definitely not. But what's the museum that is in town? In town?
Starting point is 00:20:10 Is there not a museum in that building next to, well, it's not a museum. but there's always stuff in at the next to the cone. Oh, well they do exhibitions and Banksy exhibition was in there. Yeah, is that not good stuff in it? The Goma, the Gallery of Modern Art. Yeah, the Goma. I've been in there, but it was for Banksy.
Starting point is 00:20:29 Yeah, I went for the Banksie exhibition. I don't think I've been in, apart from that. It's really beautiful around that area. No, I'm not in the Picassu and all that. Yeah, you're not about it. I saw a really cool painting. I'm looking for like some art in that for the flat, right? and I saw a really cool one another day
Starting point is 00:20:45 but it actually spelled out Picasso or it had something to do with not it was Van Gogh I think right and I just thought I just can't do it to myself I've mugged them off I've slagged them and I'm going to hang it in my living room and that and you know George Square isn't it having a massive
Starting point is 00:21:03 few million pound refurb yeah it's going to be more like gardens like Central Park I think so sleigh who needs to go to New York do you know what I mean Do you know what I will say about Glasgow. You know the people make Glasgow pink rundown building. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:18 That needs to be redone because that is an iconic, you know. No, but, you know, if people have memorabilia or things about Scotland, that picture is a thing and the cone. But it's so damaged by the sun and rain. It needs to be redone. No, I know what you mean. Or somebody needs to buy that building and make it into something. still keep the people make Glasgow sign?
Starting point is 00:21:44 It's a freshen up. It needs to be maintained. Yeah. It's an iconic feature now. I wonder why it's not, though. I feel like that only popped up a good few years ago. Like, I don't know if that was there when I was at college and uni in that. Because that is a building.
Starting point is 00:21:59 That is, I think that's what my college building might have been. Never true of phase, to be fair. Totally again. I would never move away from home now because people do make Glasgow. Everyone else are asked. Still got so much to see and do, apparently. There's so much to see and do. You've never been to Kelvin Grove?
Starting point is 00:22:17 I've walked about and I did a great time in the park. The sun. Please make that your mission to do that. On my 30, yes. Number one, go to Calvin Grove Music. I need to get my list. That's number one. I'm not even 29 yet.
Starting point is 00:22:31 I've got time. Yeah, you have. Everyone needs to calm the fuck down. What we should do is do one thing, an episode. So then you've got 20 a season. Yeah? Okay. So this one, well we'll start from today
Starting point is 00:22:45 because by the time we get to your 30th, we'll be more than ready. Number one is go to Calvin Grove Museum before you hit 30. Not a problem, I'll do that at the weekend. There you go. Tick. I like ticking things off,
Starting point is 00:22:58 so if they're written in a note and there's a dot next to it that needs ticked in, it'll get done. Yes. Tell that for nothing. Right, shut the fuck up, Jess. What have you been up to, Zoe? Well, Jess actually slag me
Starting point is 00:23:10 because on my list is heck chicken sausages because honestly I've done close to nothing but it's better than my list that's just a prop at this point yeah but honestly like normal working week for me I don't do much like if I'm busy with work I'm 95 girl do you know what I mean I mean nine to nine
Starting point is 00:23:28 but I am loving heck chicken sausages and I wanted to mention it as part of my breakfast one bit of sourdough two scrambled eggs avocado. But then what I've been doing is cutting the hex sausage. You know when you cut them in half long ways and lie them flat. And then you actually eat it with your hands. That is gorgeous. Why a wee bit of syracia mail with it up? I'm supposed to say you have some saratia.
Starting point is 00:23:52 Love. And some good amount of protein on that. Well, I'm trying to get the gains, gains, gains going. Do you know what I mean? You've got about 40 grams of protein and there's thick, thick, thick, juicy protein shake. I know, I was like, ordering it end. It just says protein on it. But I do, like, we've spoke about it before, the protein struggle is so real. For me, personally especially when I just want some yogurt and fruit for my breakfast but it's not enough yeah when you want to you know I want a toned arm I'm past just want to be a rake now I want like muscle definition in my arm I think you're doing the right thing I love a muscley gorgeous arm oh my God I love a good arm I love a good arm
Starting point is 00:24:30 I agree somebody gave me good arm something that I don't have no never had I'm just a chunky limbs person. No, you're not. I'm just all limbs. No, you're not. But they're short. Anyway, everyone got on the heck sausages, but not too much because they're quite hard to get. Not a lot of supermarkets do them. No, they don't. You are right. Aldo do chicken sausages, though. Yeah, I know. I have seen them, actually. Al was one of the only supermarkets to do own brand chicken sausages.
Starting point is 00:24:59 I've never thought to try them. I like the wee Italian spice through the heck ones. Yeah, the Audi are the same. A wee dupe? A wee aldi doop. A wee aldi doop. I might give them a try On Friday I was on the streets of the West End giving out free sushi with a Kiko In 29 degrees That's the hottest I've ever been in my life
Starting point is 00:25:17 Everyone needs to talk about the heat on Friday Well it wasn't hot for me I went up to Lus and I was mugged off I can't believe No but do you know what You should be thankful I had sweat coming out of places I didn't know sweat could come from
Starting point is 00:25:30 Really Is it because you're in the city suburban sort of area And you're next to like the subway Isn't that like it's a bit I don't know but it was so warm but everyone was loving the free sushi no wonder, so would I.
Starting point is 00:25:43 So what were you giving out then? We were just giving out free tray sushi for if you'll be in our TikTok sort of thing. By the way, if anyone's missed, you've missed the chapter. What? Queen management manages a Kiko. Oh sorry, yeah. People would think you work for a Kiko.
Starting point is 00:25:59 They'll be confused. I mean, I would if they asked me. Not a problem. Your Saturday job? Yeah, why not? Yeah, I manage Akiko Social so we were out on the streets with a big tray of free sushi
Starting point is 00:26:09 big sign-safe free sushi with an arrow and Harry was kicking about with it Were you doing it with Jenna as well? Yeah, and Jenna was there who helps me with it and it was just really like a bit of an activation just to get the word out And what sushi would get some content? The one we love.
Starting point is 00:26:23 Shut up, the chicken one of the summer roll We had one side was chicken, one side was prawn Wow I fucking loved it, no wonder, yeah Good, because it's one of the best picking sushi's in Glasgow No, I know it is. I think people always think it's for the pokey balls
Starting point is 00:26:36 but the sushi from Makiko is, will blow your flipping mind, honestly. Because quite a lot of people did say, oh, I've tried a pokey bowl, we were like, please go in and ask for the sushi. Guys, they literally make it fresh for you downstairs. Like, it is amazing. And that one we loves flame torch, does that we call it?
Starting point is 00:26:54 And it's, you can take blow torch and you can taste it with the crispy weeks on top. It's really good. So I was doing that on Friday. It had a bloody great time, but it was warm. Like, we were all sweating buckets. But everyone was out and about, so it was good. I bet you that.
Starting point is 00:27:06 Calvin Grove was mobbed. Do you know what? It actually wasn't too bad. Who not? During the day they weren't it? Yeah. Lunch time. And all the students are away at this time.
Starting point is 00:27:14 That's true, because it is normally full of students, isn't there? Yeah. But it was good, like a wee, a wee fun job to be doing, you know? I've just been working on us. That's all I'm doing. Oh, done, girl. I've nothing else to tell you. Well, I went to see Winnie on Sunday. Jilly's baby.
Starting point is 00:27:29 Mm-hmm. She's tiny. She's teeny weeny weenie. Teeny weenie. Teeny weenie. She was always going to be teeny weey. any money though, won't she? But she has cute.
Starting point is 00:27:39 Yeah. And I, that's, honestly... We went around with the girls, didn't we? There was quite a few of us that went. Yeah. And then our friend Molly came up, so we were with her. Just where I thought we came, but we're just chilled. We just chilled, yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:50 We didn't really do anything to report on. We just... I went to Capowler last night with Richard. That was nice. Caramel chicken. I heard some of that. She's vegan, though, so she wanted to go because she loves it in Edinburgh. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:02 And she had the cucumber salad, the vegan corn ribs. The corn wraps from there and the caramel chicken I can't tell you anything that's nice than that. The waiter called Charlie listens to our podcast with his girlfriend. What? Hi Charlie. Molly McFarland's cousin. Love it.
Starting point is 00:28:22 He was really sweet. Capeira's good. I forget about it though. I forget about loads of restaurants so I was going to think. And you know I just walked in. Yeah. Got a reservation on a Sunday afternoon. It wasn't that busy.
Starting point is 00:28:31 What I will say is though the corn rooms wasn't as good as it used to be Although the portions tripled in size which I thought was a big sleigh But the caramel on chicken was good It was a lot It was a lot I was like wow I had a paloma margarita
Starting point is 00:28:44 Delicious Not an apoloma me I don't like grapefruit Do you not? That's the most bitter thing I've ever put in my mouth Yeah you are I don't know if I like better things
Starting point is 00:28:56 Inflection Although peanut butter is better is it not Yeah But there's a It's more savoury though Yeah, there's just, see when it's better and it's almost like perfume. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:07 I can't do that. And you're going to Edinburgh this Tuesday, aren't you? I'm going to, it's called. Lucky you, yeah. So Molly texts me and asked me for some recommendations for Edinburgh. So any of the Edinburgh girlies here, you'll absolutely love this.
Starting point is 00:29:20 So I told her to go to Little Capo, which is a new, really gorgeous, small plate restaurant in Edinburgh. She's going there with their grandma. Love. And I think a few of the Patreon Piggy Girlies has told us it's amazing. I'm desperate to go.
Starting point is 00:29:34 And then you're going to, what's it called? Lucky you. Lucky you, which is another place that was on my must-go list. Well, I'll let you know. Zoe loves Asian cuisine, so. I do and I just think it's not something you really, loads of people obviously do, but I don't make it. It's not really something I would ever really cook very much,
Starting point is 00:29:54 so I think that's why I love going out for it. But it's lucky you is Y-U. It looks so nice. It does. I want one of everything on the menu. I've already looked. But yeah, I'm just going. going through at Edinburgh because our friend Molly who was talking about, her grandparents, she lives in
Starting point is 00:30:07 London and she's from Plymouth. But our grandparents are actually Scottish and live in Edinburgh. That's right. Well, her mum is Scottish. So she comes up quite a lot, so I'm going through to see her before she heads back to London. Yeah, she works at Sky. She's got an amazing job at Sky HQ. Yeah. Being the boss bitch there.

Well, don't worry, our friends at Watermans will do all of that stuff for you. They won't be packing your boxes for you, but they'll do everything else. So for straightforward, legal advice, remember Watermans. So should we get into our dilemma of the week? Let's fricking do it. We say fricking now, by the way, because we're child-friendly.
Starting point is 00:31:23 Yeah, I said to Zoe, we're at Gillies and talking about how me and Zoe swear a lot and fucking, and I have to keep telling Richard off for swearing. But I've noticed on the podcast that I say freaking a lot And I think it's an automatic thing that I'm still saying fucking Every now and again But I'm saying far less than what I was Have you noticed that, Marie? The silence is deafening
Starting point is 00:31:46 I can't see I've noticed one way or another But you'll notice it now I will know, yeah And I'm like, why do I keep saying freaking brilliant But is that still unacceptable? I would say so yeah Yeah Because they're just going to repeat that
Starting point is 00:31:58 And it sounds like fucking anyway doesn't it Fucking hell. Also, there's loads of things that, like, remember we're talking about it and we're saying, like, even when there was songs come out when you were younger and it said, like, damning it. Yeah, I was saying that to you, yeah. Liar, I wasn't allowed to say liar. Like, even stuff like that, that we necessarily wouldn't say our really bad words or swear words.
Starting point is 00:32:19 I could never say, oh my God. No, you shouldn't even say that either. No, you say, oh my gosh, but to me, I'm like, you're still saying the same. Yeah. The reason you're saying it's still the same. Do you know, interestingly, though, how strict my parents. and swear with me swearing, I swear a lot. So what does that tell you?
Starting point is 00:32:34 I rebelled. Well, mine don't swear. I was not brought up around swearing. You just do it because everyone does at school. That's what happens. So actually he does well just do it because I'm going to do it anyway. Val and you've been like... I know, but you don't want to be a little gobs shite though.
Starting point is 00:32:48 No, I know. As long as if he has... Stop swearing or you'd be a gobshite. Yeah. As long as if he has excellent manners, I couldn't care this. Yeah, be polite and you're fine. At least I fucking meet you that.
Starting point is 00:33:00 nice to fucking meet you. I think that's Charmin. Honestly. But I think just table manners and overall please and thank yous
Starting point is 00:33:10 I just I can't bear it on, I was where I was like yesterday and I was walking through Glasgow and there was like
Starting point is 00:33:17 road signs on the pavement and I waited behind the road signs and not one person said thank you and honestly I just laughed to myself before manners cost nothing
Starting point is 00:33:25 if that was me I would like thank you so much especially with a pram I would have shouted you're welcome yeah I know, yeah, you're welcome.
Starting point is 00:33:32 No, I do that quite often if someone doesn't say thanks. Especially when it's a very obvious, like have let you through. It was such an obvious. I hate when someone doesn't thank me in the car, by the way. It's so narrow pavement. Yeah, I hate that. Who ever told someone to do that to say thanks in the car? Where did that come from in your mirror?
Starting point is 00:33:48 I don't know. I do my little button. No, I can't do that anymore because where my button is is now where the stop start is. I keep turning the fucking car off. No, you don't. No, honestly, I keep doing that. I've turned the car off while I was driving. And then I'm like, why is the car not moving?
Starting point is 00:34:05 I've turned it off. I've said stop. Because the button's up. It's on top of the full thing. Whereas the one in the car before was exactly where that button is. I keep fucking turning the car off. Your hazards. But if someone doesn't thank me and I've let them in,
Starting point is 00:34:20 I will drive up your arshall. Yeah. And the road rage is real. I care. Jason always gets me when you drive high people. This is obviously how childish we are. to do that thing when you start waving but then it turns out to a wank.
Starting point is 00:34:32 What, as if someone's pissed you all? No, just as if you're waving at the car connection and you turn it into like a sly one. But I always like do it when I put it behind the door because I get shy. God love it. Road rage. Right, dilemma, dilemma.
Starting point is 00:34:49 We've got a dilemma to discuss. Ready for it? I'm ready. You ready, Eddie? Ready, Eddie. Strangier things are coming back soon. There's Eddie and that just reminded me. Anyway, how to deal with a needy work friend who's not really got any other friends outside of work?
Starting point is 00:35:07 How to deal with a needy work friend that has no other friends outside of work? Yeah. So they're just all on you. Everything they want to do speak about is all on you. So this friend, right, had they moved to the city and they don't... Right, interesting. Why do they not have any of the friends? I don't know, but that's red flags. Red flag.
Starting point is 00:35:31 We're allowed to have red flags for friends, you know. Absolutely. But equally, the person in question may be very sweet and just people please that and it's hard to maybe say. But you think as though, how would you say? Sorry, I'm not interested to be your friend. Like, that's harsh. Especially in work.
Starting point is 00:35:51 Yeah. Because see, if you meet someone in life, say, and they're maybe a friend of a friend who do become a bit much, you don't need to see them. Like you can reject plans Obviously you start getting a bit Like I've said no too many times or whatever And you feel a bit bad about it
Starting point is 00:36:04 But work you're there Unless someone leaves You're no getting out of it I know by the way I do think work Friendships become intends regardless I mean we went at work We did
Starting point is 00:36:17 We didn't work together though No I know But work friendships do go from zero to 100 real quick I think Because you go in there And something's pissed you off at home When you think I'm just going to tell the whole office
Starting point is 00:36:27 that's what I'm like. Like you vent to them, you moan to them, you laugh with them. They just become everything because you're with them more times than you're not. Yeah. But I do think, I don't know, I think if that was me, I would just not agree to anything out with work anymore and try and set the boundaries of it. Oh, so are they doing stuff outside of work as well then?
Starting point is 00:36:48 Yeah. I think it's very everything. Yeah. I'm now your best friend because you've got no one else. And what sort of work situation? is this like is it a female dominated like um not sure interesting how all I can put myself in the shoes is when I was new to quiz and I was I don't know anybody so for me I was actually quite isolated at the start into like a small office with the big boss so I didn't
Starting point is 00:37:16 really get an opportunity to meet people unless it was in the staff room and I do remember the first few weeks where people were so lovely everyone was so welcome into me and there'll be certain and people that would come and try and make a friendship with me. And I knew instantly that although they were lovely, I just don't think we have much in common. I can't see us having a friendship outside of this workplace, right? And there was a few people, there was a couple of girlies that probably were trying to force it.
Starting point is 00:37:47 And I was maybe a little bit standoffish because I just thought, I really like you as a work friend. But I thought what hang about? No, because for me it was so important. that I've created and found my people when I moved to a different city and I did end up doing that
Starting point is 00:38:01 took me a while took till the Christmas party for me to everyone to loosen up a bit and you meet people that you've got more in common with but yeah I did find that quite difficult
Starting point is 00:38:09 but maybe I was the opposite side of that where I was maybe being a little picky a bit picky of who I was going to choose and spend my time with yeah but you don't just want anyone that was available
Starting point is 00:38:19 yeah but I think I maybe just was just trying to keep it more professional so maybe this is what she needs to do is just say look, you don't want to obviously turn a bit Mardi with them, but just be saying, oh, I'm a bit busy and then they'll maybe get the hint. But then that's harsh because they haven't got any of the friends and I don't know, I feel sad for them. No, I know. But I think it just becomes
Starting point is 00:38:41 a bit much when it's work and not work, because that's your two, that's your two, that's like you're 50-50 of what you do with your life. Yeah. You don't work or you're not. So if you're involved in both of them. Interestingly though, why does she not want to? to be friends with this person? What is wrong with this person that makes them feel like they don't want to become good friends? I don't know, I just don't know
Starting point is 00:39:03 if it's because you're with them all day at work is it then just a bit much? Yeah, okay, fair. Because we've always had quite social jobs so like I don't mind going out for drinks after work with a team or whatever it might be and we all got along really well but I think if it was like,
Starting point is 00:39:21 I think as well, work creates gives you things to moan about. Things for straight. you at work you want to switch off from it if the person that you're at work with all the time and then when you go and spend time with them all they do is talk about work yeah I just think there needs to be a bit of a balance I always think that about people that work with their partner what else do you talk about what do you talk about when you go home and you're you know gassing over a glass of wine what are you offloading about work surely but then there's a positive to that
Starting point is 00:39:52 though because let's say for example you're trying to vent about somebody at work The person that you're speaking to, understand and can relate to it. Yeah. Because if I'm, let's say I used to rant to Richard about something, he'd be a bit like, I agree with me, but like, yeah, that's a bit shit. But he wouldn't be proper going in on it with me. So it's hard. And they don't know anyone you're talking about it either.
Starting point is 00:40:13 Hmm. Yeah, it's a difficult one. So what's your answer to that question then? I would just create boundaries. I would stop chatting as much out with work. Yeah. I would not agree to do as much. because the thing is she probably doesn't want to not be your friend
Starting point is 00:40:28 but she maybe just doesn't want to be like the go-to for everything in work and out with work yeah so I think I would just I'm not free this weekend sorry uh-huh every like maybe three weekends I would only give one out of a month yeah that's still quite a lot though isn't it like that comes offy quick what would you say to the work classy similar to you bye Yeah, similar to you really, but just sort of start winding down the deep chats about your personal life and just maybe keeping it more professional. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:05 But also maybe trying to hint to her, to try and encourage her to do other things outside of work maybe, being like, why don't you go and let's say she's moaning to you about something. Maybe she's moaned to you about not having any other friends. But you could maybe say, why don't you go and go to this book club or why don't you go to this event or how about you join that gym or... Yeah, give solutions. Rather than just leaving her High and dry You enjoy your life but I'm out See ya
Starting point is 00:41:30 Yeah Okay well I hope that helped It's a hard one isn't it Yeah it's difficult Relationships are hard If anyone else in that situation Messages and let us know what you did Because I bet you that happens quite a lot
Starting point is 00:41:42 Yeah It's intense Calgary Also known as the Blue Sky City We get more sunny days than anywhere in the country But more importantly We're the Canadian capital of blue sky thinking.

Starting point is 00:42:26 We know the boys, no, don't we? So, it was just in the episodes where you're talking about, like, the excuses the guy who gives were cheating. I was saying about his love to me, he was, like, cut it out if he was cheating, cut it off him down. Nice. Well, when I was younger, a girl, locally, bit her boyfriends, a bit of her boyfriend's dicklops, because she found out he was cheating, a full chunk. I mean, I don't know how big it was, but she'd like the tip or something. Anyway, she'd have to clean off.
Starting point is 00:42:56 Jesus Christ. Honestly, fair fucks you. Because you know what's funny about that whole situation? She's obviously just not let on she's known. She's got down and dirty and been like, you know what, tonight you're a lucky boy. No, but imagine that actually been the one to do it as well. I want to eat you all up and she's gone down and she's done just that. And then went to prison, presumably.
Starting point is 00:43:22 You never know because he might be. that embarrassed when I'm guessing yeah a chunk out of his wellie that would you go to prison
Starting point is 00:43:29 for that yeah it's a salt is it what do you call that what do you call that when you eat humans cannibalism
Starting point is 00:43:35 cannibalism I do I do think though if you found out that must be chewy oh no how would you
Starting point is 00:43:44 bite that clean off though she must have some gnashes on her are you are you fang
Starting point is 00:43:49 or too yeah you must no I can't even think about it wow talking of willies fucking here we go right I just took a turn
Starting point is 00:44:01 so many messages that used to work at Preswick Airport okay this person says here's a story for you an Italian guy came through one day and set the detector thing off what people don't know is that it does that at random sometimes as well so the thing goes off
Starting point is 00:44:16 and this guy's pulled aside for research my colleague who had a very rough Glasgow region accent says I need to search your pal The guy was like No capish, okay Obviously he had no one I didn't understand what he said
Starting point is 00:44:30 But okay So he starts doing the old search Then went searching in his inner thigh And he's like Whits in your pocket And they're telling him's like I have no one I don't understand
Starting point is 00:44:41 I don't understand what you're talking about He's like what's in your pocket What's in your trouser pocket The guy has no idea What the hell is going on So my colleague goes and takes him For a private search Turns out he just had a massive
Starting point is 00:44:52 Dave dick. No. So he had his dicks for a few minutes in the middle of Preswick Airport security. It's true what they say
Starting point is 00:45:02 about Italian so it seems. No. How can it be so how is it so visible? No. Surely he was like why he touched my penis.
Starting point is 00:45:14 He just didn't understand what he was obviously getting angry with him like what is that? Baton. You get a sock down there, son get a... Honestly good on them. Good on them, babes.
