Huge welcome.
Hello.
Thanks so much for having me.
I'm so excited to be here.
Is this the first time that you've, that you've, that you've,
been on the radio? Is this your
year? Yes, it is.
Am I taking your radio virginity right now?
This is a very special moment.
This is a special show.
But today's show, guys, is jam-packed.
We've got loads of guests coming on.
We are going to be launching a
Kickstarter campaign live on the show
from 5pm. So stay tuned

and how you can get involved
and what you can win.
We've got competitions. We've got so much
music from the movies that I've prepared.
I saw a movie this week called
Baby Driver, which I'm going to be raving
about for the next two hours and there is
the music on it. It's just phenomenal
so I've got some pretty cool
cool tunes. If you want to get

Well, I think we're going to go straight into our
first song because we've got so many tunes
that I want to get out today.
This has been on my
iPod. This has been on replay all week.
It's 18 with a bullet by Pete Wingfield,
which appeared in the movie.
Do you have any idea of this?
I don't know.
Tell me.
Actually, I'm going to see if you guys at home can guess.
I'll play it, and then I'll see you and get it.
Okay.
This is from his back row and chill.
We're starting the weekend, guys.
Shillie and shoo-by-bill-mo-brill.
Love in that song.
That's been my replay all week.
If you've just joined us, it is Backrow and Chill.
I'm Johanna James.
I'm joined this week by Katie Beard.
Hello.
Otherwise known sometimes as Katie Beard-O.
Yeah.
What's your...
Either one.
Get called a lot of things around the name Beard-Beard-O.
Beardy.
Beardy man.
Yeah.
Beardy woman.
Beardy woman.
Yeah.
Just to clarify, she does not have an actual beard.
No, just a lady beard.
Just a lady garden beard.
Oh, I've never heard of it been called a lady beard before.
Quite like that.
Well, mine's more of a lady tash, I would say.
Oh, yeah.
But you are filling in for Noel Clark today,
because he's off doing FAMO things.
What do you do on the day today?
Well, so I make silly videos and put them online, you know.
A content creator.
Yeah, content creator.
So, yeah, doing all the silly faces and all of that on my Facebook page.
You're a comedian.
Yeah.
I would say, own it, girl.
You're a comedian.
And that's how me and you met, like, over a year ago.
We met online.
I know.
The true romance of the story.
We met online.
I chatted you up.
You did actually.
You slid into my DMs.
And we're like, look, let's make a comedy baby.
And I was like, I'm down.
It was just that chemistry when we first met was undeniable.
It was very intense.
Yeah.
You know, I...
I've never had that kind of emotion.
relationship with a girl before
until I met you. It was just
something special. I mean it's been pretty hot this week but I'm feeling
very flustered right now. I must tell you.
Right so I'm going to run you through the show because this is your first time on the radio
and your first time on back row and chill. So normally we like to kick it off with
a bit of entertainment news which is where we tell the lovely audience out there
what's been going on in the world of sort of cinema, Netflix,
theater, anything along those lines. So now we're going to jump right in it.
time for
the entertainment news
on back road till
I've felt ever so special
when I go to do that
so right what has been going on in the world of
the world
so much
Daniel Day Lewis called it a day
he's retired at the age of 60
which is weird because
I mean I haven't heard of
literally in years I've never heard of
an actor retiring like everyone
all the old all the oldies
they're still going.
Michael Cain.
To their dying day.
Yeah.
Do I mean?
You hear of actors passing,
but you never hear of them retiring.
So this is,
this is interesting.
You know,
maybe it's just got a little bit too much
and just want to, you know,
take a...
Do some gardening?
Yeah, do some gardening.
Do you know what I mean?
Trim that, Lady Bush.
Take up some new hobbies.
But apparently,
Hollywood is in shock.
They're in shock, apparently.
I mean, I'm not that shocked.
I mean, I'd like Daniel Day Lewis,
but I'm not a mega fan.
I mean, what was the last?
last thing that he did that you can think of that he did.
He played Lincoln, didn't he?
Ah, okay. Is that the last thing?
That's the last thing I can think of Daniel O'Do Lois.
I mean, when I think of Daniel DeLois, I'm thinking he was in the gangs of New York, right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, there will be blood as well.
He does a lot of, like, gangy, American-y, fighty stuff, doesn't me?
So that's weird.
I wonder why he has a, why he has decided to call it.
quits but um but he has and but then maybe maybe he's just trying to like spark up a little bit of a
buzz yeah true so that he can then retire and then return yeah guess who's back yeah back again
daniel's back so you don't really know i don't know are we are we that shocked do we care let us know
tweet us at food by radio if you want to get in touch with us at the show we will shout to you out
everyone loves a little bit of a social media shout out nowadays isn't they definitely
oh they do you know what i am like super excited about what is wonder woman
is on the cards.
I know. Oh, have you seen Wonder Woman One? Yeah.
Oh, I haven't seen it yet. Oh my God.
I've done it. I know.
I was like so inspired after I was just like,
Ah, get me a sword.
Fetch me my sword.
I know. I mean, even just the trailer, I want to get up and like smash
something and just like be kick-ass.
No, he's on my to-do list
for sure this weekend to go
and see that. Lucy's going to kill me that.
I haven't seen it already.
But so number two, Defo on the
I mean it's smashed all the box offices and
there's been so much praise
for that movie. Definitely. And it's
really like sparked a bit of a conversation
because it was one of the main Hollywood movies
of Blockbusters of the year to be directed by a woman.
Absolutely. So everyone's like, which really
that shouldn't really be news and it shouldn't
really be of interest. I know it's crazy.
The genitalia of the director. Yeah.
But you know we're still a little bit
behind, aren't we Hollywood? Definitely.
So yeah, I'm excited to see.
Hopefully this is kind of going to be the
start of more, you know, more big movies with female directors.
Yeah, and I heard as well that the main lady who got cast as Wonder Woman, she got
cast and then they had a change of director halfway through.
And so the new director came on board and she was quoted as saying that she wouldn't
have, she wanted to cast an American woman.
Right.
rather than someone of foreign or Middle East descent,
which I was like, where is this going, interview?
Whoa, what is going on?
But then she went on to say that when she then got to work with the actress,
she went, nobody else could play Wonder Woman better.
So I was like, okay, that's nice.
Okay, fair enough.
It shocked me for a moment.
But it's good.
I mean, it's good.
Warner Brothers have come back with all the DC film.
Because of Marvel has just been like wiping the floor for months
with all their Deadpool and all of their movies.
And so it's quite nice that DC came back with a bit of a fighting punch.
Yeah, definitely.
Well done.
Well done.
Yeah, I'm looking forward to that, but I just need to get myself along to the bloody first one.
Yeah.
Late to the party.
As usual, Johanna, great.
Yeah, so Mariah Carey, Carrie, Carrie, her cameo has got cut from a movie because of her
unprofessional, quote, behaviour.
Top hat.
And there are divas, and then there's Mariah Carey.
I can imagine that she'd be a massive diva.
Yeah, you can definitely imagine that.
She's notoriously known for her bizarre and like OTT diva demands.
So apparently, she was, oh, I read here that she was spilling tea.
I was like, no, she didn't do that.
That's so odd.
But yeah, she had a lot of antics behind the scenes.
So apparently, everyone's claiming that they had to wait three to four hours
before she made an appearance on set
and then when she got to set
she refused to do the stunt that was arranged
so that is pretty dovery
definitely oh dear
I mean
I think a lot of these
famous people
famo people and stuff like that
you need to kind of take a bit of a rain check
sometimes and just realise
how many girls and guys
or anyone they are literally
at the floodgates ready to come in
and do that job ten times over
and also just like the time and
effort that goes into like making a film is crazy so like you know to go and like waste people's
time and stuff I don't know I just yeah I don't think it's cool I remember when I first ever ever
started out in acting and I like years ago and I met Noel and I remember me know had a conversation
and he kind of like made me sort of shake hands with him and he was like will you promise to never
diva on me he's like I'll help you and I'll always support you and and sort of like give you a leg up but
you can never diva on me.
Yeah.
I think he'd had a sort of scenario
while one of his actresses had divored on him
and so he was a bit like,
if you're going to do this,
you've got to keep ahead, keep humble and whatever.
And I have, I promised it, and to this day,
I'm like, if I'm on set, I will
do the job.
Yeah, I'll do the job.
I just, I haven't got time for divas,
to be fair.
I think it was, who was it?
I think it was Merrill Streep,
I think was quoted this year saying
pretty much exactly the same thing.
Like, even when it's like, you're on set
and you're tired and it's 12 hours and you haven't eaten
and whatever. So just keep reflecting on
how bloody lucky are we to be doing this job?
So, oh, so exciting.
Yeah, definitely.
I don't know. Mariah Carey.
If you guys are interested in seeing Wonder Woman too,
or, I mean, there's a lot of praise for Wonder Woman,
but if you didn't like it, let us know.
You can email in, chill at Fulbar Radio.com
or tweet us at Fulbar Radio.
And let us know your film reviews as well.
We're going to be doing film reviews later on in the show.
So tweet them in, email them in,
and we will shout you out and read them out as well.
Guys, get involved, because it's not just us telling you what we like.
We want to hear what you're liking as well.
Exactly.
I think that we should pop back into a little bit more music.
Cool.
Because I went to the premiere of a new film called Baby Driver this week, which I didn't really know anything about.
I just sort of got an invite and thought, why not?
I'm free.
So I popped down, and I realized that there was some amazing cast.
it was John Hamm, who's the main guy in Mad Men.
Very tall,
yes.
Gap-looking guy.
Kevin Spacey plays like the main kind of gangster bad guy.
Lily James, who plays Cinderella.
Also was in one of Noel's films, Fast Girls,
and Downton Abbey, of course.
Who else is in the cast?
There's so many amazing, amazing things.
And it's basically, as a synopsis of a movie,
it's about a young guy who's called Baby.
It's kind of cool.
And he's a, he is a,
getaway driver for bank robberies.
And it's a kind of like a heist film,
but with a massive difference.
He's got tinnitus or tinnitus.
Oh, yeah.
In his ears from an accident when he was a kid.
So he constantly has to wear earphones,
and he constantly has to play.
So he's got all these iPods on him at all time,
so he's constantly got music.
And the entire movie is shot and edited and stylized
to the songs that he's listening to.
Oh, wow.
It's just a whole, they've kind of like taken the concept of movie,
and they kind of made a baby with a music video
and it's just a really refreshing.
Yeah, and that's what they were sort of talking about
like at the premiere.
They were saying that it was an original script,
an original story in the whole world of like sequels and prequels
and, you know, this number seven.
They thought, let's go back to the basics
and do an original idea and it really worked.
And so I've been obsessed with the soundtrack all weeks.
I picked a couple of my favorite songs.
Oh yeah, Jamie Fox, that's who it was.
Jamie Fox plays this awesome character in it.
And C.J. Jones, Sky Ferreira,
who are in the flesh, is the most gorgeous piece of woman flesh
that you've ever seen.
She was like meters from me at the premiere.
Was it a girl crash moment?
You know, I probably would have proposed.
If I was allowed any more near her by her bodyguards.
It was, yeah, it was just absolutely amazing.
So I'm going to go for a bit of Harlem Shuffle
by Bob and Earl. I think that's
going to be the next one. This is back where and chill
come back. We've got way more entertainment news and our
first guest coming up just after
half past four. Enjoy!
I love that little sound
whoever pre-recorded that. It
blesses me every week.
Right, we're going to get back into
our entertainment news because there's still so much
going on. A bit of a drama
has gone down on the new
well, not it's not new Star Wars.
It's the spin-off, the hands
Solo movie, which is the prequel
to obviously
Han Solo's character in Star Wars.
So Ron Howard has been brought
in to save the day
because the previous
directors have been fired.
Which is very late in the day
to fire directors. It's a bit dramatic, isn't it?
It's very bit dramatic. There's three thirds of the
three thirds of the film. That's the whole film.
Three quarters of the film have already
been shot with the
previous directors. Oh, whoa. And so Ron Howard
is going to come in and do the last bit, but
I don't know how does that work then
do they have to last one.
It must be really hard for him to just come in
on like someone else's like creation.
So late in the day.
Yeah.
And like kind of save it.
Sew it back together again.
I hope it's not a bit of a patchwork film.
I hate that when that happens.
But the previous director is called Phil Lord and Christopher Miller
who are best known for Lego movie,
21 Jump Street, 22 Jump Street.
Oh wow.
Yeah, all of those like kind of comedy classics.
So apparently,
creative differences was what
they're saying is why that they got
the boot. But it just seem
a bit weird. Apparently people are saying that
they injected too much comedy
and there was too much improvisation
going down. So they want to go back
to more sort of classic Hollywood.
But I mean, why hire
two of the best comedy directors
in the business right now and then tell them to
tone down the comedy? It's a bit like,
yeah. Okay. I should have seen
that one coming.
It's like, well, okay.
just completely changed.
Though I'm wondering if the film's going to be like,
it's going to be really weirdly comedic in some scenes
and then like...
And then towards the end or whatever.
Super Hollywood.
Yeah.
It's going to be a bit mish-mash.
It's a bit of a mashed potato movie, maybe.
Yeah.
Don't know about that.
We'll see what's going on, Rick.
Down to Nabi, are you a fan?
I've like tuned in and out of it.
You've slipped in and out.
Yeah, slipped in and out.
Like an uncaring...
Are you hooked?
Are you invested?
I was, at the beginning of it, when it all kicked off,
I was definitely a Downton fan.
I love a bit of a period drama.
Yeah.
I would be so happy running around in a corset,
and that would be one of my ideal roles.
Towards the end, though, I think I did have a bit of enough of,
there's only so many times you can run up and downstairs
and talk to servants.
But, apparently not,
because they are definitely starting to shoot the Downton Abbey movie.
I think they've got one more time to try and get money out of that series.
Yeah.
Because it did blow up in America as well.
So they're going to produce, well, to begin in 2018.
That's a long way away, actually.
No, wait, we're only halfway through the year.
Six months away.
But by the time it comes out.
Yeah, it will be a little way away.
I don't know.
I wonder how many of the cast are in.
It's all a bit of hearsay at the moment.
We don't know.
We cannot confirm nor deny what's going on.
Apparently, Lady Edith Crawley is still waiting to hear from producers.
So I think the crew doesn't, the cast don't even know what's going on.
But we'll keep you posted.
I'll keep an eye out for the Downton Abbey,
if you've got any Downton Abbey enthusiasts out there.
Yes.
I don't know, guys, if you're listening, which way do you sway?
Are you sort of period drama or you modern day drama?
What's there?
Which way do you like to go?
Which way do you go?
Well, in terms of like, kind of like you were saying,
you know, how you feel like comfortable in a corset running around.
It's funny because day to day to day,
I'm like in my dungarees and whatever.
But then when I'm like acting, I'm like, give me a corset.
Anything like, I love doing like period drama roles.
So in that way I like, I do like tuning into things like that.
I do think they're interesting to watch, definitely.
And it's this whole other kind of world, isn't it?
Because it's so different from what we have around.
It's like watching history.
History.
But then that what happens is I actually think that that's what happened in history.
So I like watch downtown Abbey and I'd be like that actually.
That's not factual?
There wasn't a fire at the mill?
No.
So, yeah, let's know.
Tweet us in at Fubar Radio.
Do you go for the period drama or do you go for the modern day drama?
Where would you put your penny?
Oh, we've had a tweet in saying, I like your voice, Johanna.
Okay.
Thank you.
It is a lovely voice.
You have a lovely voice as well.
Oh, thank you.
Do you have a telephone voice?
Oh, hello.
My dad has like the biggest telephone voice ever.
he just has a sort of normal London accent
but whenever anyone calls him on the phone
and it's like, hello!
And suddenly he turns into that.
I'm like, are you like owning a bank?
Like what's really weird?
Amazing.
And he does this weird thing where he also like,
he can't multitask,
so he can't be on the phone
and sit still at the same time.
So he'll wonder.
So whenever he was on the phone
back in the day when I lived at home,
he would just like wander into my room
and out again while he was on the phone.
I'm like, da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da.
Dad,
and like,
my dad does that as well.
Like,
as soon as he's on the phone,
he just,
like,
goes for a walk around the house.
Yeah,
just off you go.
Off you go.
It's like he's pacing around.
It's bizarre.
I mean,
they do say that,
uh,
in,
in like a court of,
of,
of,
of,
if you sleepwalk
and do commit a crime,
like,
you're not guilty
because you weren't quite aware.
But maybe there might be a clause
about phone walking as well.
Yeah.
And you could possibly commit a crime
and that's how I was on the phone.
I wasn't aware of what was doing.
And like,
legit dad wouldn't,
No.
And he'll be there and he'll be like putting the kettle in the fridge and like a book and in that cupboard and stuff.
And it's like, what you do?
Dad?
Just not even raw.
Gosh.
Well, thank you very much for first tweet of the day.
That was at Don Yucit.
So thanks very much for tweeting in.
Tweet at Fulbar Radio or email in.
I like getting an email because it pops straight up to my screen.
So I get to see it first.
So chill at Fulbar Radio.com.
Let us know what you're liking to watch.
Are you watching anything at the moment that you're particularly?
jazzed about? Well, you got me into the Hamme's Tale. Oh, are you into that? Yeah. I'm like,
how can you not be? So into it. Like, what episode are you on? Um, I've like watched as many
as have come out on 4 O'D so far. Okay. So I'm like episode four, I think it is. Oh my God. You've got
good things. Okay. Yeah. Yeah, that I think has got to be my favorite series of the whole, the whole year.
I'm going to be, I'm going to say it. I'm going to say it the whole year. Yeah. The Hammeys tale. And again,
people misjudged what it was. I had a friend who I recommended it to and she went,
oh no, I don't like period dramas. I went, it's not a period drama. It's set in the future.
It's like a post, it's a post-apocalyptic kind of future thing. They just happen to dress like
the olden days, but trust me they've got like cars and guns and yeah. And she was like,
I love that fusion. I think it's so cool and unique. Old and new, old and new. A little bit like
the way, slightly like the way that Star Wars, they, they do, it's set in the future, but all the
costumes and everything are like really historical.
Yeah.
So that kind of fusion.
So if you haven't, check it out.
You can, it's on Hulu, if you're like that side of the world that can get Hulu.
Or it's on Channel 4, 4OD if you are UK based, the handmade tale.
It's based on a book from the 80s, but it's been modernised to the present day for the series
so that you can have like cell phones and stuff in there.
But I remember reading the book in school.
And it's a bit of a graphic novel because the theme is,
about in a society where
their infatility is
so low that not many people are fertile
so if you are they round you up and they force you to
be a sex slave to the richer
members of society and you've got to
pop out the babies to sort of get your freedom
but it's interesting
kind of how you know how relevant
a lot of the issues occurring
in it are oh yeah it's freakyly close
isn't it to the yeah
freakily close to the modern day which I think is that's the
perfect balance of like
spine tingly when something's a little
bit too close it makes you a little bit too uncomfortable.
But yeah, I remember reading the novel in school.
And we had to read it out loud in the classroom.
And I remember I had the page, I had to stand up and read the page where they were doing
one of the sex ceremonies.
And there was one of the lines and I had to say the C word.
And I was like mortified at like 13 to read this aloud in front of like the teacher.
But I guess, you know, quite liberating now.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So super, super good.
Right.
Okay, dokey.
I think that's enough entertainment news for today.
We'll be back next week with loads more stuff.
Or maybe later in the show, because news comes out all the time.
I'll have a little quick refresh over.
So, back to Baby Driver and a couple of these songs,
because I'm just loving that movie.
The main guy in it is gorgeous.
I forgetting his name at the moment.
Ansel Hot Face, I'm going to call him.
Because he's gorgeous, and he was the guy in The Fault in Our Stars.
Oh yeah, yeah.
He's also in
the insurgent,
divergent,
detergent movies.
And he played the lead role
and like this I think is his like
I mean he did an amazing job
in Fulting our stars.
Yeah.
But this is like another level lead role for him.
So I think I've got a bit of a crush.
I think it's happened.
Ansel Elgort.
Gosh.
Like, yeah.
What a name.
What a name?
Say that when you're drunk.
I don't know.
Yeah, okay
So what's my next song gonna be?
Ooh, okay.
This is called Hocus Pocus by a band called Focus.
Whoa.
I know, could you get any more rhymy?
Probably not.
Right, we're coming up to Half Path 4,
which means it's nearly time for our first guest,
so we're going to introduce it straight after.
Hocus, Pocus by Focus on Backrow and Jill.
So that was Hocus Pocus by the band Focus.
Wow.
Say that three times.
This is amazing.
Pocus, Marcus, Pocus.
Hocus, Focus, Pocus.
Right, we've got our first guest on the show
So a huge welcome to Ursula Martinez
Welcome
Thank you
Is that your real name
Or another stage
It's nearly my real name
My mother's maid
Ursula is my real name
And Martinez is my mother's maiden name
Oh yeah I went for my father's middle name
Oh okay
So my mother's Spanish but everyone in Spain has two surnames
So if I'd grown up in Spain, my name would have been Ursula Lee Martinez.
So it's nearly my name.
I love the name Ursula as well.
Yeah, that's cool.
I've never met in Ursula.
It means...
No, me neither.
It means little female bear.
Really?
Yeah, because the star constellation, Ursa Major and Ursa Minor, that's the bear.
Oh, wow.
Ursula is a little female bear.
Little female bear.
So we can just call you that for short.
Little female bear.
Right, well, we are really eager to talk.
to you about your show because you are on at the Soho Theatre, which is kind of the centre
of all things cool. It is, isn't it? It's got such a vibe down there, really. Yeah, those people
go just to hang out, they don't even see the shows, they just go down to the venue, which is
like, I'm just going to hang around the theatre and like kind of ooze a bit of the cool off
and apply it to yourself. But you have a show called Free Admission. Yeah, it's not free to get in.
Yeah, I was going to ask, is it free admission for free admission? So the reason why it's
called free admission is because
during the show I freely
admit stuff.
It's like an open mic
literal night.
So yeah the shows a lot
of my work kind of draws on
personal experiences and autobiography
and this one is
an exception and that's why it's called
free admission. Nice and is it
one woman show? It's a one woman show yeah.
So I freely admit stuff
whilst building a brick wall
between me and the audience.
and this is it's a real brick wall with real bricks and real mortar.
Every night you've got to make a real wall.
Yeah, every night I've got back, yeah.
And then you bash it down again?
Yeah, bash it down.
It doesn't have the secret is in the mortar, it doesn't have any cement in it.
It's just sand, water and lime.
So it doesn't set, you can scrape it off.
Okay, good.
And then you just add water the next day and it's good to go again.
I was just imagine you with a sledgehammer just like every night.
Come on, guys, got to get home.
Take the wall down.
So no cement.
It's how they used to build all the cathedrals in days of old
were built with sand, lime and water
because they didn't have any cement in those days.
Because it does eventually set.
Okay, but just after a millennium.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly.
It doesn't sit after an hour's show.
So how did you get from where you are to where you were?
To where I am to where I was or where I was to where I am?
the way around.
Actually, I'd like to tell the story backwards, please.
I thought it didn't just be extra.
So, yeah, well, I had written the text and I wanted to,
I didn't want to be speaking into a microphone and be too much like a stand-up comedian.
Okay.
And I didn't want to not have a microphone because then I'd be standing there like an actor
sort of like flailing with my arms and not knowing what to do.
So I thought, I'd need to have a microphone.
have something to busy myself, an activity while I'm delivering the text in order to kind of make
it feel a bit more organic. And then we had the idea, but whatever I do with my hands, it would
be nice that that also creates something. And then we went through loads of things that you
could be doing card tricks, you could bake in a cake, you could be whatever. And then I just
had the idea, I suppose I could build a brick wall. And then the idea came. And then the idea came.
And then it was just, yeah, we just went with it.
And it ended up kind of like the layers of metaphor revealed themselves
after we'd had the idea and after we were doing it,
the idea that whilst I'm kind of revealing stuff about myself,
I'm also creating a barrier and a protection between me and the audience.
As I make myself more vulnerable, I need to protect myself.
It's also about how we all communicate from inside behind closed walls
and we're all trying to communicate with the outside world via social media,
but behind walls that were all quite isolated.
Then I made the show,
then after I made the show, Donald Trump got in
and was talking about building a wall between the states and Mexico,
and then I took on a whole new meaning.
And then also in the show I do talk about the sort of this side and that side,
the divide between them and us,
and there's a lot of them and us going on at the moment as well.
So, yeah, there's lots of metaphors,
and obviously it's a theatrical full.
wall that as well yeah
I mean the concept of a wall I guess is
that it's like somebody back in the day
the year old days went right
we're going to build something to stop you
and me and yeah
it was quite literally
quite literally a barrier
I do always wonder who were like the first people
to invent stuff that we just like have now
like who's the first person to invent a cake
well who's the first person to
mix sand and water
and lime and make something
that you could stick rocks together
And I wonder what like things they tried before they were like the, before they found something that worked.
What was the bleepers?
Yeah.
Try like it.
Beetle done.
Yeah, maybe this.
Yeah, maybe this.
A bit of beetle dung.
Wattle and daub.
That was it before Mortar, wasn't it?
Wattle and Dorb.
Anyway, yeah, that blast from the past from my school.
And so how long is the show?
How long is the runtime?
So I'm on all of next week.
Monday to Saturday.
The show's an hour long.
I'm a firm believer.
I'm a firm believer of a 56 minute long show.
I think our attention spans and, you know,
seek comfortability, you know, an hour, just shy of an hour.
It's so true.
Your range of switches starts to just switch up a little bit.
Yeah.
So, yeah, short and sweet, keep them wanting more.
Keep them wanting more.
And do you incorporate any music in it, or is it?
There's a bit of, there's a little bit of music.
There's a sort of triumphant.
It's got a very triumphant and some might say a slightly provocative ending.
But yeah, to triumphant music.
I'm all quite well known for getting naked on stage,
and I may or may not get naked in this show.
You'll have to come and see it, guys.
You'll have to go check it out yourself.
Well, I can see on the press release, there is a bit of nudity.
which is
I mean that's a hard one
as well as like me and Katie female performers
and it's
the old concept of nudity
it causes a bit of a
divide with how
you do it
yeah well intention
changes how it's perceived
or can do
yeah
yeah context
because that's always
I remember years ago I was offered a film role
which was like fully nude
and I was like having to weigh up
because I hadn't really done
anything major acting wise before
and I was like weighing up people saying
oh well you know
hold that hold the nude card
or like be really picky about where you do it
and why and I ended up turning it not going for it
and turning it down and going because of the nudity
or because of other reason
when I got involved in the project
they said it was going to be fully nude but it was fully nude
for comedy effect
so I got in and I was like okay that's fine
If it's the butt of the joke and I can play with that.
And then the concept changed and it was fully nude for the shock effect.
And they universal, they just wanted a vagina shot for the shake of it.
And so I ended up going like, I don't know, I don't know, no, no.
So I ended up not.
And now I'm like, really glad that I made that decision.
But then on the other hand, I know many actresses who started off going fully nude in Game of Thrones
and it has like catapulted them to the next level.
and so many doors have opened because of the nude scenes that they did,
which is kind of like a...
Well, that's weird as well, isn't it?
Yeah.
Yeah, okay.
But, yeah, I mean, I suppose in a way, you know,
the nudity that I do in my shows is very different.
It's, you know, I have full agency.
It's like my own work, it's my decisions.
I have total control of how, of the context and the...
It empowers you to be on stage in the nude, or is it terrifying?
Neither.
It's just, it's one of the things I do, like,
Comedy is, it runs through my work as well.
That's another thing that I do.
Autobiography is nothing that I do.
So I suppose nudity is just one of the many things
in my repertoire that I often draw on.
Yeah.
I found when I did the audition process for that very movie,
I did find it, I was terrified.
I'm so glad that I did the audition process though,
even though I didn't do the film.
I'm glad that I did that experience
because I auditioned in front of a full panel
and a room of people.
and I did the scene a couple times and stuff
and I found it
they were more sort of awkward and embarrassed than I was
because I was the one that had the power card
because they were the ones not wanting to look me in the eye
like sorry could you just do that again?
And there was me just there like
everything out and I was like
I got adrenaline and I found that my fear
like I faced the fear of it anyway
because I think being naked is one of the most
terrifying things that you can do with anything in the world
or they even say to calm your nerves
imagine everyone naked and things like that to reverse.
I mean I agree.
I grew up a, well, my parents were both nudist, so I grew up within a kind of like nudist sort of context.
So being naked is not shocking for me.
I don't do it for shock value.
You know, and as a performer, it's quite a sort of show-offy exhibitionist sort of profession.
So I suppose as a nudist and a performer, it was only a matter of time.
Yeah, it was going to happen.
But yeah, I don't really do it for shock value, but, you know, I think the,
I think the human body is fascinating.
And clearly it has fascinated fellow humans since time began.
Millennians.
Yeah.
All the sculptures and paintings since time began have been exploring the naked body.
And, you know, I'm just doing the same.
So we are talking about Ursula Martinez's new show, free admission.
It's on at a Soho Theatre.
When is it on until?
When can they...
It's Monday to Saturday at 7 o'clock in the main house at the...
So you can go to Sohofeater.com if you want to grab some tickets for that.
And you can see her in the flesh.
Literally, a lot of flesh.
That's great.
Thank you so much for coming in and being our guest.
We're going to pop to another song now.
What am I going to do?
Oh, Chase Me by Danger Mouse, another song from the Baby Driver Soundtrack.
And then I promise I am going to move on from that film.
You're addicted.
I'm loving this songs at the moment.
Here's what we know.
Two men and a woman came into the bank branch clad in black business clothing.
Back row and chill with Johanna James and Noel Clark on Fubar Radio.
Boom.
Right, we're coming up nearly to the halfway point of the show.
Wizards by, isn't it?
Wow, really.
You're chatting to yourself.
We've got our second guest in this studio, so a huge welcome to Bryn Higgins.
Welcome, welcome.
Hello.
We've had some fantastic names with Ursula and then Brin.
I love the name Brin as well.
That's cool. Where'd that come from?
It comes from Wales.
From Wales.
Yeah, if you're in Wales, you'll hear it quite a lot.
Unfortunately it means a hill
So we've had little female bear and hill
Yeah I was always hoping it would mean something bigger than a hill
But a hill there's a lot of hills
A hill is the beginning of a mountain
Right
I wish I thought of that before
And you are a director
Yeah
And we're here to chat about your new film
Called Access All Areas
Which is an awesome name
Do you want to sort of like give a little synopsis about what it's about
Yeah it's a feel good road movie
very music led because it's about four teenagers
kind of unruly kids running away from home
against the wishes of their parents going to a big music festival
as we all do
and losing themselves at the festival
and finding themselves at the festival
yeah brilliant
and it's got the second generation in the sense
because their parents, two parents come after them
who are very very well one's a bit odd
and the other's mad and angry
and so they also rediscover their
you know zest for life I suppose
through being at the festival.
Have either of you ever?
runaway as a kid. Did you ever actually
I definitely had like
a couple of moments where I like
packed my little backpack and was like
I am leaving, walk down the road
and then turn around like hmm
this wasn't such a good idea.
Yeah, much the same actually.
I think I did. I packed a bag. I think I took
a whole loaf of bread and I genuinely thought that was
going to like last me. I was like that's about a month worth of
food and then
I got to the corner of the park and then I was a bit
miffed that no one had noticed I was gone
and then it started to rain so
I thought, stuff this, I'm going to go home again.
Well, it's much the same in this in the sense that there's no plan in leaving home,
except to get to the festival.
They've got a reason to go there.
There's a sort of long-lost legendary musician who, in theory, is meant to be playing.
So for some of them, it's about going to see that, which is a reason a lot of people, I suppose, go to festivals.
Yeah, to see that.
But mostly it's about getting away from home.
I am so excited that there is a movie made.
And did you shoot it actually at the festivals?
We shot it at Bestival.
Oh, wicked.
Oh, my God.
Logistical Nightmare.
though, right?
Not recommend.
It's not top of the book of
Don't do this with the film crew,
but it's quite high up the list.
Yeah.
Were you camping as well as filming?
Some did, no.
We kind of, well,
I wish I had now,
but we ended up wanting to get off,
you know, base for at least a bit of time.
So we were in a caravan park
about 10 miles away,
which was a useless waste of time anyway
because, you know,
it's just as noisy there kind of thing
and a sort of bit grim, really.
So, no, I actually thought
we had a great time
in some ways because you have to completely
embrace the chaos
and that this is not a film set this is a big music festival
yeah you can't really be like
could you quiet down junk people
we're trying to film could you stop jumping in front of the camera
and making it because there was a lot
but then after dark nobody notices anything anymore
so you can get away with it all you know
do you know what I'm so excited weirdly you know how
I have this theory was not my theory I heard it
but about how ideas kind of just like
float around and it's whether it's not your
idea, it's whether you're susceptible to the idea
so that's why the same idea can land on
so many different people and it's kind of
whoever completes it first
because I went to my first ever
I did, I worked a lot of festivals last year presenting
so I'd never actually gone to a music festival
and I did like three or four in a row
and when I was there I was just inspired and I was like
oh my goodness this what an amazing
story ground for
a film I wish to make a film and like
I was sort of like jotting down ideas and speaking
to people and saying wouldn't it be great to sort of
combine a sort of
well I was going to go from the sort of vlogging aspect
and turn that into people who arrive and then
it all turns into one story
so when I was reading up all about this I was like
somebody baby I did it
I dropped that ages ago great
so I was so excited and the cast as well
you've got some amazing ladies
lined up there
and so Ella Pernell she was in the Tim Burton movie
yeah Miss Peregrine's
home for peculiar children she was I saw that twice
she was brilliant in that
Yeah. Did you see, how did you get her involved? Did she just come audition through and you go,
it's a script-based thing, I think. Also, she actually, as you discover it in the film, is a very, very good singer.
So she has a lot of music in her. So I think it was that they're attracted to it. But again, as you say, this sort of story, because it's a two-generational story, which festivals are as well, that you have a lot of young people there. But you nowadays have a lot of people who have been going to festivals maybe for a long time.
So, you know, the parent-children thing is a big part of it. Because you need to.
a good story at a festival because it's chaos otherwise.
That is what I found,
although I just went to I Love White Festival,
and I found that they literally was,
it was 13 to 17 year olds running around in the little gangs,
covered in glitter,
and then there was sort of 40 up.
And I sort of, we went and was like,
where are all like middle people?
But it was literally just two kind of two generations
rolling around the same festival,
each doing their own thing and having a great time and stuff.
And the other lady,
lady girl lady girl
I don't know how old she actually is in real life they're all playing
they're pretty young actually
oh okay they are playing
she was the amazing girl in the narnia
movie so I'm so excited to see her
back in the game and
yeah no Georgie again
just they're all very good natural
actors which you kind of need if you're going into
this environment where you're not very controlled
they're all pretty well prepared
Jordan Stevens
tends to work on the fly a little
I don't think he'd mind me saying that but that's great
because what he does is a wonderful sort of energy to it.
Yeah.
And, you know, so, yeah, they were able to sort of stick to the storyline,
even though we were kind of battling our way through.
You should have made a movie about making the movie at the movie set.
Well, and then, yeah, the last one who's kind of the main character,
along with Ella, is Edward Blumel, who's very up and coming, wonderful, very natural actor.
I don't think Edward had done anything on camera and didn't,
I don't think he even knew this isn't really what you normally do.
Oh, okay.
Just threw him in at a festival
Well, it was literally
There's a scene where he has to run through the crowd
To the front of the stage
And, you know, Future Islands were on
Or some big band
I mean, and this was, you can't rehearse this
It's just camera was following him
Security guys going
And he just did it twice, yeah
Did you have to pre
Sort of give a heads up to festival
You were going to be doing this?
Yeah, no, it's made in conjunction with them
And with Robbed a Bank and stuff
That's arranged all the music
I thought you guys would be running around
Gorilla style like
Duck and duck into that tent
Yeah, but I didn't realize, I've not really shot at a festival before.
It's a little more ad hoc in a sense than you know.
Like with films, you tend to plan it very carefully and do what you've planned.
Festivals, it's a lot more fluid.
It's sort of like a band get in a huff so they don't turn up,
so there's nothing there to film or whatever it might be.
And you just kind of roll with it.
That's a good thing that's a good thing in life, actually,
because I get a little bit stuck in sort of,
kind of maybe a little bit of order and liking to know what's going to happen and when.
and I think it's just pre-planning everything
that's just me trying to control everything
so I think it's a good idea to sort of actually
be in those situations where you got to just like roll
with it, go with the flow.
You know I have a background in documentaries which kind of helps
so I knew there's no point
getting angry in all this but
we had a, there's a scene
that has to be seen in a toilet right? It's a festival
has to be a scene in a toilet
and while we were shooting this scene
we were waiting on we had a big row
of them you know those sort of organic ones
and we selected the one we wanted
waiting for the people to get out so we could get in
and they weren't coming out
and then someone looked underneath and two pairs of feet
in the toilet
and then a pair of hand sort of comes over the toilet
door and it was like oh god and we've got a camera set up and everything
you know
you caught on camera love
so stuff like that
but they'll be so chuffed if they made a little cameo
that was like no they're not in it
that definitely no people they weren't aware
of what they were up to
like the mic guy just being like
you won't believe what I'm hearing
Yeah, yeah, very much.
And so it's already had its London premiere,
hasn't it, the East End?
No, it's coming up.
Oh, it's coming up.
Oh, no, yeah, because we're not even in July, are we?
I just can't even get what we're going.
So 1st of July.
First of July, 9 o'clock Saturday night, I think,
and it's finishing the festival, so it's a good film to finish with,
I think, because it's a big, 28 tracks of big loud music.
And so can people get down to the festival and see it there?
Is it open ticket, brilliant?
It's certainly the Hackney Picture House.
Okay, so our,
Saturday, the 1st of July, we're not there already.
At the East End Film Festival to see Access All Areas.
I like the name there because obviously, you know,
there's lots of boundaries at a festival.
Always want to get in the VIP.
Always get checked out.
Never mind.
Thank you so much for coming in and chat in.
I'm super excited to see this.
Yeah, me too.
Good.
Be young again for the weekends.
It tends to make people want to go.
That's what we've discovered.
Showing it to audiences that go, right, just want to go to a festival now.
I'm going to go to a festival now.
Yeah.
Come on southern glitter and flat,
you're doing quite well.
You're looking quite festively today.
Just get me to a festival now.
You're ready.
I'm ready.
Well, weirdly,
Glastonbury's happening right now as we speak.
It's like the Friday night of Glaston.
So I'm not going to pretend I'm not jealous that I'm not there.
Okie dokey.
I'm going to play,
I promise this is my last song from Baby Driver now.
Okay.
Okay.
This is the opening song to the movie,
which is,
I mean,
just in the way that films can inspire you.
This one inspires you to go to festival.
baby driver inspired me to drive
really crazily fast to lots of 70 music
so I'm going to pretend that I'm driving
right now safety fast Johanah
oh yeah always wearing seatbelt and never Snapchat
while driving kids okay there we go
back row and chill
with Johanna James and not
Clark on Foobar radio

didn't quite do the join there very well
whoopsie
still learning the ropes folks still learn the ropes
right we're officially an hour two of back
and chill. I'm still joined by Katie Beard.
I know. She's surviving. I'm taking
her radio virginity today. She's never been
how you feeling? I'm feeling good. It's been a whirlwind.
Well, your stamina's brilliant girl. Well done. Thank you.
Okay, we are joined
by our third guests and there are three
of them so that makes it what, like,
I don't know, help that. I can't do math.
A huge welcome, guys.
Oh, there you go. Put your mics up. That'll

Very unappealing manorosh, if I may say so.
If you'd like to introduce yourselves to the audience.
Hi, I'm Brad.

I'm Hayden.
Hi, Hayden.
And I'm Daniel.
Hi, Daniel.
Radcliffe.
Who'd like to speak first to that day?
Hi, I'm Brad.
Hi, I'm Brad, and I'm a writer-director of feature films and other such stuff.
I thought you were going to say hi, I'm Brad, and I'm an alcoholic.
No, well, that's...
I already said that once this morning.
Yeah, I had to stop myself from saying it.
Yeah, you're a writer-director and...
Yes?
Hayden, what do you do?
I'm Hayden Hades.
Not my real name, as you know.
Cheesy stage name that I've regretted ever since I came up with it.
But I am a, yeah, a writer and stand-up in general.
Hades of all trades.
Hades of all trades.
all trades.
Basically, it's
knobish, isn't it?
I'm Daniel White.
That is my real name.
Okay, lovely.
Yeah, it's a bit...
So many Daniels on the world.
White is just a...
Yeah, I know, I should just pick it
to the microphone, I'm sorry.
Don't look at us.
Don't look at us.
We're not here.
And I run a PR company
for indie film
and some theatre stuff.
Ooh, ooh.
The guy
manages everything to go everywhere.
Brilliant, brilliant drops.
It's like dark arts.
I'm like PR of Voldemortemort.
P.R.
Whoa.
Whoa.
And what, well, there's a couple of projects that you want to talk about today.
So, Brad, let's kick off with the one that's about to be released.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
Well, it's funny because I was on the show a few months ago, was it a year ago,
or something talking about the premiere of my movie, Hallows Eve,
that we were premiering at Fright Fest at the time.
And it's doing really well.
We're now, it's a horror film that's being released on Netflix in October.
Oh, wow.
And next month it's being released, Sky Store, Google Play, iTunes and Amazon.
Oh my gosh.
It's really been picked up by all the major players.
Yeah, and that's a UK industry.
We have a USA distribution that I can't talk about yet, but that's on the table.
And that hopefully will have news on that soon.
But for UK audiences, yeah, yeah, next month on Sky and Amazon and then Netflix in October.
What a little film horror.
It's getting around, isn't it?
Sleeping with all the big...
Film houses that.
I'm exhausted.
I've got a horrible image in my head.
And so Hallow's Eve is a little synopsis
because obviously it's a horror.
It's a horror, it's a horror.
It's sort of like the one page or one line pitch of it
is it's a modern day estate gam
find themselves in a late 70s, early 80s style slasher.
But it's got all the homages to John Carpenter.
Obviously it's called Hallow Zeeve.
It's really not pretending not to be.
Or homage to John Carpenter.
winter, but hopefully through that lens, it reveals itself to be about something else and
completely different and hopefully gets people talking.
Hello, Zee.
And I love the poster.
Yes, thank you.
Yes.
The poster.
All that poster was designed by a guy called Graham Humphreys who actually designed the original
UK poster for Nightman Elm Street and The Evil Dead.
That's why it's so good.
Yes, he's fantastic.
He, for some reason, decided to help us out and give us a poster.
I think we had a few beers and he said yes.
And so how did you come about making Hallows Eve?
Well, Hallow's Eve came about, because as a filmmaker, I have several projects on the go.
You always got a few balls in the air.
Fingers and many pies.
Yeah, fingers and many pies.
And whilst you're trying to get certain things going, there's always a part of you that's like, okay, if all of this falls flat, I need something else, something that I can pretty much get going myself.
So I wrote Hallows Eve, and then I sort of pitched it around a bit.
spoke to my sales agents that did my last movie,
which is called Seventh Dimension in the UK,
Beacon 77 in most other countries,
except France called Code 77.
Why are the different names?
I always find that weird when they...
You have to talk to the distributors about that
because I asked that question.
I didn't want it to be called the seventh dimension in this country,
trust me, because that sounds like it should be on the sci-fi channel
at 3pm starring Dean Kane.
Yeah, isn't the seventh dimension?
No offense to Dean Kane, because you're awesome, but...
Anyway, but yeah, yeah, so it's it.
But in France, they call it.
called it. I mean, I don't mind in countries that have
different languages because you know. You have to translate
it. But France can call it. France had
the best title for a movie ever. And that was the
French title for Jaws, which is La Dande de la Mere, the Teeth of the Sea.
That's just amazing. So they can
call anything they like. But so
yeah, so my sales agents, I pitched
them this idea that I showed them the script
and they said, yeah, and I said, look, my, I think
with the right people
in the right location, I can get a good
portion of this movie shot off my own back.
I'd like to do that because I want to get
because all the other projects were stalling at the time
and I was like, and they said, well, yeah, fine, if you want to do that
and we'll support you and you can then go to market
and try and raise the money with us backing you up at sales agents
so that people know it's going to go to the market
and hopefully get sold and distributed.
And so that's what I did when we shot
with the help of my fantastic DP, Robert Hawwell,
who has his own company and brought on amazing cameras
and lenses and everything.
We shot third of the movie, basically, and then went out, and a year later we had the money to shoot the rest of it.
And then, bam, and then we had it finished, yeah, for Fright Fest last year, and now it's going out into the world for people to see.
You guys, well, you're properly representing what it is like to make independent British movies.
It is a grind, and, yeah, so massive respect to you for that.
Thank you very much, yes.
And you mentioned Jaws, which, weirdly, I saw this thing pop up last night.
And you know the sort of outdoor cinema or secret cinema?
It's all like the rage now to go and see a film in the location or whatever.
They've done the outdoor jaws in a huge swimming pool
and you are sitting in floaties watching it.
I was like, I don't think I could do it.
Because you'd be there and I'd touch your foot and you'd be like,
Jesus!
I'm definitely doing that.
That's so up my own.
Oh, I don't think you're kidding.
I like a bit of maybe retro horror or thriller,
but when it gets to like Slash a Slash or Gore,
What was it that we saw?
We saw The Cundering together.
And we like,
me and Katie, we got pranked by the wall of comedy,
which is this big Facebook page.
And they told us we were going to be going
and seeing exclusive screening of Suicide Squad.
And we thought, cool, great.
Yeah, Harlequin, amazing.
Janukin dressed as Harlequin.
And I come in there, we get in there.
And then I see that there's a camera set up in the thing
and I was like, I've got a bad feeling about this.
And then the movie came on.
It was not Suicide Squad.
and we can't deal with horror
and they were filmed us and it was hilarious
they put the video out and there's basically
we were making noises like
glutteral noises that I didn't think you could
make and like inventing like kind of
kung fu moves that we didn't know
you could also do. I think like the
strain that movie had on my heart like it's
definitely shortened my lifespan
probably definitely by a few
hours
yeah I was so pissed off and so stressed
and because stuff I've got an overactive
imagination anyway so when stuff something gets into
my psyche that I don't want to put in there
It just does.
I've got to be careful, but I've just learnt that from.
And you were living in a creepy building at the time.
I know.
I was living in like an abandoned warehouse or something.
I was like, this is not.
Although, to be fair, some people came out of suicide squad more pissed off.
So, you know.
Jarga.
Yeah.
True.
True.
That.
Ooh.
Yeah.
Notice I didn't say I did.
Some people.
This is an honest film review show.
We can say what we want.
Okay.
Well, moving on to, I think, one of the very major exciting reason why you guys are all
stuffed in this little studio
right now
is that you've got a new project
that we are going to be
launching on the show today
we have a new project
we have a new project
I'm very much involved as well
so yeah
do you want to
who wants to take the mic
heyden you take the mic
it's your baby
right
I'm accustomed to as I am
to public speaking
yeah it's a show
that
had a strange
genesis in that
I think
I said last time I was on that I sit and I write a lot of things and then I go, well, I've only got a budget of eight pounds.
Much like a Brad Watson joint.
It's like, you know, I want to make this, I want to make this amazing thing, but I haven't got enough money to do it.
I have to get super creative.
And so I spend a lot of time just, you know, writing things that just take place in a bathtub or, you know, in a completely darkened room.
I'd got really bored with it
and I thought, well, you know what,
I'm just going to write something for me
so unbelievably ridiculous and difficult to film
that could never be done.
Think big.
Just for fun, so I did.
And then, well, I forget is I have no sense of time.
So by the time I'd finish doing it,
about a decade had elapsed
and the kind of technology had kicked in.
I sent it to Brad,
we eventually got round to you,
and Brad was like, you know what?
out of kind of the stuff that you've done and various things,
this is the thing that seems most fun.
This is the thing that I'd quite like to do.
So Brad got on board.
And so we shook hands and then there was a montage.
And then we met, you know, we had various castings and stuff
and a young Jayhanna James strolled in,
about a foot taller than the character was in my head.
Completely different ethnicity.
Yep.
And I was like, interesting.
And Brad was like, no, this is.
This is, like, Eris, this is that this is a character that she's going to make it work.
And he showed me the film, because I was busy in the green room kind of saying hello to all the applicants and stuff.
And he was like, take a look at this.
And I'm like, pretty sweet.
Do you guys still have my audition tapes?
Yes.
Oh my God, the embarrassing is that.
We've got to release.
We should release that.
Yes, if we get to a certain amount on the crowd fund, we say we'll release the.
That's good.
Yeah, yeah.
Okay.
So just to wrap up.
Just to catch up where we are.
Basically, this thing called Ares, which is what Hayden showed me.
And I said, this is a, what you've written here is a pilot for a TV show.
Let's expand it, let's turn it into it, let's come up with like a series arc,
and let's create a pilot episode.
And that's what we have done and we have written.
And in the meantime, once we'd cast you in the main role,
we decided to go ahead and do kind of a proof of concept,
tone poem, sort of thing.
promo I guess which has now
been dropped online
and seems to be getting an awful lot of views
and
and off the back of that we've decided
we're going to
out of that pilot episode
we can create a web series
so we're going to
kickstart a crowdfunding
page to hopefully raise the money
to do that. We will raise the money
because we will
raise the money
and basically it's for
anyone, this series is
the reason I fell in love with it
was because it made, right from the first page,
it was making me laugh,
and the sci-fi references were incredible,
and it's literally,
and I think the first thing I said to you
when I came and I said,
this is Red Wolf Meet Hitchhacker's Guide to the Galaxy
as if directed by Ridley Scott.
And I think that's when you said,
yeah, I think that's a pretty good,
yeah, I think that's exactly.
Yeah, yeah.
That was exactly what I was thinking.
Sorry.
So, ERIS, the TV slash web series,
wherever it's going to end up,
is going to be made, but we need
your help to get it made.
So we have made lots of
teasers and bits and bobbins so you can get little
snippets of what the TV show is all about.
And we've made a Facebook page, which is
at Eris underscore series.
Yes.
I don't have that in front of me.
Daniel's coming.
We'll tell you about Daniel's involving
a sec, but he's basically a mis-attack quote.
We have a Facebook page, which we will tweet out in a
moment, and you can go and follow.
If you want to get a little bit, a little bit of a
a feeling for the series.
And the moves boosh.
And the moves years.
And we want to get you guys involved
because almost like everything
like you're saying Brad is
the ideas are flowing for so many people
but the funding, if the funding isn't there,
the idea just never gets to come to fruition.
So we want to get people on board
at Ground Zero.
So if you want to be part of making a TV show,
really we need the help of the audience first.
This is exactly how,
Deadpool, this is the way around the Deadpool,
the concept, it was turned down by studio after studio after studio.
Oh, wow.
It was not getting, it wasn't getting at all.
So what happened is they released a tester, like a screen test of it online.
And it got a big social media following.
And it basically turned the producers minds around.
So we need to sort of come together and convince the big studios,
all the little studios.
Definitely.
To fully produce this series.
Absolutely.
Because it's not, yes, it's about raising the money for us to do what we promise we can achieve on the money that we're cheap, that we want to raise.
But it's also about galvanising a fan base.
It's also about people getting involved, right, as you say, from ground zero.
And everyone feeling a part of growing this idea.
And hopefully if it then ends up being commissioned and taken into series, everyone will see that and go, wow, I was a part of that.
That was something that I thought that I could see that commissioners can't.
And because of that, now it's out there.
And I think that that's quite an exciting new way that we're trying to explore.
We're getting things off the ground now.
It's kind of people-powered film, isn't it?
It's like if you're a sci-fi fan, being involved with something like this,
and actually making it happen is a really empowering thing.
But if we can get it to the stage where it's actually being shot,
we can do Facebook live, we can do social media live,
so we can take the viewers and the fans who've made it happen literally behind the camera,
and they can see what it makes
and how you actually make a film work.
It will be part of the process.
Yeah, and absolutely.
So, that's crowdfunding. It's awesome.
And we are going to launch the official crowd fund
for ERISA TV show in a couple of minutes.
So we're going to pop to a song
and then we're going to get all the technology ready
and then we're going to go live
and we're also going to go Facebook live
and we're going to start,
we're just going to kick the whole thing off.
Bam-and-Bam.
So I've now gone on to some of my favourite sci-fi-themed songs.
So this is from Toronto.
legacy. It's a bit of Darf Punk.
We will be back with you to launch
the Eris Kickstarter.

Right, well, that's the end of course.
Brad won, well done.
Yeah, Brad one again, like he does every time
it comes on. Okay, well
today, we're doing something really, really special.
We are about to launch the Kickstarter
for our new TV series, Eris.
So is it going to go live? Are we going live right now?
We're going to do a countdown.
We're going to do a countdown? Okay, okay. What, from what number?
Five? Five. 27.
$27.27.
Five? Should we do it in French? No, I'm sorry.
Okay, five, four, three,
three, two, one.
We allow.
We'll be.
Happy New Year!
Awkwardly tries to kiss the person next to them.
We should tell the folks what it's about.
We should.
Okay, so if you were interested in what this TV series,
go and check out the ERIS Facebook page.
We've got ERIS Twitter.
We've got an ERIS Instagram.
We can give them all to you now.
Daniel's got the addresses.
The Facebook page is,
it's ERIS TV.
And the Twitter page is Eris underscore series.
Same as the Instagram, isn't it?
Yes.
Yes.
I was being ambiguous in case it was a web series or TV.
I was currently going to be something.
Basically, we've created a between, well, not I didn't really create it.
I'm just in it.
You guys have created a really fun British sci-fi comedy series,
which I think there is a series lack of at the moment.
Yeah.
Proper old school.
So if you are a fan of Doctor Who,
if you're a fan of Guardians of the Galaxy,
You were a fan of all of the hitchhiker's guides.
This might be a TV series that you are interested in,
but we need your help to get it started
because with anything in the world of the world of film,
we need funding.
So go over to all the socials, check out the videos
that we've already made off our own back,
and if you like it, maybe you want to donate a little bit.
Absolutely.
The Kickstarter link will go up on Facebook
and also there'll be more versions of the videos
with the Kickstarter link on them now.
And even if you don't have any spare cash at the moment to give to the project,
even just being part of the movement and just liking and sharing
and doing the whole social media thing, every little helps.
Every little like and click and share always helps.
Absolutely, because as I said, it's not just about the actual physical money to raise,
it's also about galvanising a fan base
so that we can go forwards and to bigger, better things with it
and show people that there's a fan base that are hungry for this kind of fun,
intelligent adventures.
And there are a couple of prizes.
If you do want to get involved and you want to join the Kickstarter,
where's the Kickstarter link?
Where would that be?
Trying to find it.
Should we tweet it out?
Yeah, because we've just launched it.
Obviously, the link hasn't existed until literally 30 seconds ago.
Okay, we'll be tweeting the link if you want to go check out the whole Kickstarter page
and you can get to know what we're talking about, what's going on,
and if you want to get involved.
But what are a couple of things that people can get in return for helping us?
us on this. Well, pictures of you
are mainly really, isn't it?
And of me for
anybody that's really into niche stuff.
There's one picture of me that's
on the go, but just one.
Brad, like Vlad,
who's in.
Just shirtless Brad on the horse.
No, but I think if people do want to get involved
and you want to help this series,
you have the chance to be in the series
as well. So if you are a young budding actor
or even behind the set,
I guess, you want to come down and be part
of the making of the series,
then you can have access to that if you join the gift star.
So basically, yeah, from, you know, it all depends on the,
you know, you'll see all the donation prizes and perks that you can get.
But it ranges from signed pictures.
It ranges from obviously getting the series early,
getting the soundtrack album early,
getting all sorts of stuff early,
all the way up to set visits, being in it,
playing one of the Lost Legion characters,
which are these entities that are humanoid,
beings created out of dust
that are actually based on real
living people that have been exterminated
and they get recreated out of dust
and yeah
and all the way up
you know to massive prizes like that
and obviously there's behind the scenes info
some exclusive behind the scenes stuff that you can get
you know there's all manner stuff go to the
Kickstarter page once the link is up on the
Facebook page go there
you'll find it and you'll see all the perks
and just to close Dan
because you have come onto the project
as sort of later on
in the game as almost like an immediate fan of the project.
So I wanted to ask, what made you go, yes, I want to get involved?
It's funny.
I really hate science fiction that is billed as a sci-fi comedy and it's just not funny.
It's like kind of like the last summer wine in space.
You just sit there watching an entire episode and want to gnaw your own head off.
It's just not funny.
And this is funny.
I'm not blowing smoke up your backside, but you are brilliant as Eris.
Brad's OK as a director, I suppose.
Hayden's awesome as a writer.
Brad's really good.
What hopes me as a keyboard player as well
is Brad's really good on the synth
and provides the music.
That's very good.
I've had the eras theme in my head
for like weeks now
and it won't go away.
I mean sometimes do you feel like
you can almost hear it?
Yeah.
Yeah, almost like in the background.
It's weird.
Yeah, it's weird.
Sometimes you can hear this theme.
It's almost like it was planned, isn't it?
It's like you stepped into a soundscape
and your whole perception just changes
and you sublime into the...
Absolutely, absolutely.
And a lot of voices are softened,
so we're doing overdubs now.
Yes, absolutely.
But it changes.
It's going to get beaty very soon.
Deep in the dark reaches of space.
My entire idea was,
when I hooked onto Hayden's idea,
and I think our sensibilities click,
but I said, yeah, let's go full-on 80s with this.
Let's go back to those old days of big, big theme tunes,
big, big action, big fun stuff,
and that's what...
Practical effects.
Practical effects, yes, definitely.
I'm fed up of cheap, shitty CGI.
Can't stand it.
Ruinning all my movies.
Absolutely.
And it's nothing worse.
Like, practical effects that don't quite, aren't 100% real are still great.
CGI that isn't 100% real is just, is mind-blownly awful.
Yeah, it's horrible.
So practical all the way.
And we've got a great guy called John Schoonrad who, I mean, he did the effects for the beat.
He designed the beast in the Xuner.
Men movies and he did literally everything you've ever seen that's cool he does all of
Matthew Vaughn and stuff and he's he's he's absolutely fantastic and he's going to design our two
alien because it's a trio the main characters are a trio these two aliens that have resurrected
eris because eris is the last human alive and and they have they have fun adventures together
but oh and see to kick it in guys the old piano I won't say I wasn't influenced by Rocky
four
I can see I can hear her now.
So guys, if you've just joined us,
we have just launched the Eris Kickstarter campaign
for a brand new TV series that I'm in,
brass directing, Hayden's written.
So go and check it out and see if you want to get involved
and help us make, because it's all our dream baby project
to ever make this.
We're going to sign out now.
Okay.
Thank you very much.
Thank you so much for coming on.
I'm going to leave everyone to listen to a little bit more of the ARIS theme tune
so they can really get involved.
Thank you so much.
Goodbye.
Bye-bye.
Boom.
That was Darf.
and Queen, mashed up together.
What a lovely mixture.
I know.
I just thought, I'm, I love, like, doing my little researches and a little,
well, little mash-ups.
Yeah, I'm starting to get, I basically am running out a lot of soundtracks.
So I'm looking into mash-ups of people who have been on soundtracks
where it's going until the next movie's out.
Right, it's just gone 5.30.
So the close the show, we get Lucy Patterson in to do our film review time.
Hello.
So, welcome, welcome, welcome.
It's the ladies.
I know.
I love a lady's show.
Lots of lady gardens.
Okay, dokey.
Let's get right in.
This is the part of the show where we talk about what is hot and what is not,
what people should be watching or avoiding.
In our opinion, it is only our opinion.
So, chill out.
But it is the best opinion.
Lucy's pretty good.
Lucy has our own film blog, which she, do you do it every week?
I do it when, because I'm on here every week,
forcing my opinions down people's strokes,
I tend to only really write when something really gets me.
Yeah.
And at the moment, I've got a Wonder Woman post in the works, which you still haven't seen, Johanna.
I heard that earlier.
And the big sick, which I saw her on Monday, which we'll talk about in a second.
So if people want to go and read up more, because you write really, really well, where would they go to find your...
If you just go on Twitter, it's popcorn and PNM blog.
Popcorn and PNM, not PMS.
Not PMS.
I read that wrong.
Although sometimes it is.
I read that wrong for so many weeks.
I was like, Popcorn and P&M.
Did you actually really think that was not?
Yeah, I was like, well, she's honest.
that's the whole point
yeah yeah so what have you been seeing
this week that you've like enjoyed
well I was lucky enough on Monday
to go to a press screening of a little film called the Big Sick
now when I read that title I thought
that just sounds absolutely horrendous
like I don't know about this
it sounds like a big vomit it does isn't it
but then when I read up about it and found out
it's produced by Judd Appetal who basically
the man is my hero he you know he's
that man shaped my sense of humour
I absolutely love him and then
you know I did a little bit more research into
and found that it's actually a true story.
It's a rom-com
written by,
I can't pronounce his name,
Camel Nangiyani or something like that.
But he basically
wrote down the story of how he met his wife.
And he has been quoted as saying,
you know, that is pretty much the truth.
That is exactly what happened.
And he plays himself in the story.
He is a Pakistani background
and he meets an American girl.
And it's lovely to see
the sort of culture clash handled in such a refreshing and funny and honest way, you know.
She gets really, really sick and he ends up, you know, getting to know her mom and dad really, really well and forming this lovely bond with them.
I won't tell you any more about the story because it's quite unconventional.
I just got feelings.
Yeah.
But I was laughing my ass off and crying my eyes out.
It was so embarrassing because I was really crying at the end.
Everyone was leaving.
The lights came on.
I was like, okay, I'll get up in a minute.
It was just really emotional.
I just get overwhelmed.
But it's coming out very soon.
I think it's next week or something like that.
But Google it, seriously.
Watch the trailer.
It's amazing.
You'll love it.
The Big Sick.
At least you're not going to forget the title.
No, you're not.
That's one that's really going to stick in your head.
A big.
Yeah.
And when you watch it, you'll realize why they called it that.
Although, probably could have picked something better.
Not the Big Stick.
No.
Or the big dick.
Not the big dick.
Not porn.
That's going to come out, isn't it?
Some sort of hospital.
themed.
Totally.
Oh God.
Doctor's not.
Yeah.
No, no.
No, no.
No.
But yeah, that was a big
yes, yes, yes.
Go and see it.
It's adorable.
I did check out the trailer
and I have to admit,
it has got that same vibe
as the series love
and just like absolute brutal honesty
that you're so relatable,
you're like, yep,
I've been in that situation
I know someone who is.
Yeah, and it was so lovingly written.
You can just tell that he really loved
putting this down on paper
and playing it out.
And the fact that he played himself
was, you know,
an added bonus.
And also what I can see as well
with a lot of Judd's work
is that he's going away from like Hollywood
visuals and putting like real actors in
because the actors who are in this film
are not like Hollywood looks.
They don't, you know, they're very average
normal human beings that have
across all his series.
You know, they've got a big nose
or they've tall the Frankie or they're like human
actual human.
If you actually look at the cart of like freaks and geeks,
Yes, James Franco is adorable, but that man's mouth is huge.
You know, and there's Steph Rogan.
And they're all slightly quirky looking, aren't they?
And that is, you know, that's his foundation is those people.
And he's just found all these brilliant comedic actors from around that group.
And I just, he is my hero.
I think he's absolutely amazing.
Yeah, I'm super keen to see that.
Have you been watching or seeing anything, Cote, and your...
It could be theatre as well.
Yeah, anything.
Well, I don't know.
If anyone's sort of a bit bored of what's on their...
Kelly at the moment or if you don't have one
you're like a student
and you're living off
your BBC I player or
4OD then something me and my
housemates have just become addicted to
is the British
sitcom Friday night dinner
I don't know if you're seeing it. Oh it's so funny
it's so weird isn't it
as well so good. Is that with the guy from
In Betweeners? Yes
Will from Inbetweeners yeah
It's got Tams and Greg in it
Who's amazing.
Yeah, from like Black Books, the Green Wing.
I just love her.
But it's just a really, really watchable, like, laugh out loud series about this family, this Jewish family who, their sons come over every Friday night to have dinner together.
Yeah.
And every Friday night, something goes wrong.
And they've got this crazy neighbour who, I forget what was name is, but he was from, he was from, he.
who's been in Spaced and Greenwing as well.
Oh, okay, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, and no, it's a great comedy to watch.
It's such a simple premise as well, and it's so clever that just from that they can make hilarity.
What platform is it on?
4OD, isn't it?
4OD, okay, brilliant.
There's a lot of old British comedy gyms on 4OD.
I'm not sure whether Green Wing is.
You mentioned that.
I absolutely love that.
I've got, like, the DVD box television.
I have watched it so many times.
It's so good.
Do you know what a series that I've started
and it was a really promising first episode
It is a series called White Gold
Oh, I watched all of them
Oh, you've seen it, yeah
Because they're all on BBC IPlayer, all of them
They're so good
So I think it went up to BBC 3
I think it was an online thing
Weirdly, I found out about
I was in talks with the same production company
Who made that art
I was interested in making something with me and Katie
And so they said
The thing we're working on at the moment
is a thing called white gold.
It's got the two guys from the in-betweeners,
and it's also got Ed Westwick from Gossip Girl,
and it's about three Essex window sales,
like double-glazing age salesman,
door-to-door salesman, but set in the 1980s.
I was like, immediately, I love it.
And filmed it in my office block where I work.
Really?
Yep, and all around the site where I work, yeah.
Did you get to see them?
No, I wasn't allowed over there.
They were in a separate building,
and I knew they were there,
and I was like, you have to let me talk with it.
Because I'm HR, I have to sort of behave myself.
and I was like, okay, yeah, nobody's allowed over there.
Shit, I want to go.
As soon as I found out Ed Westwick was there,
I was like, somebody stopped me from going over there and embarrassing myself.
It was amazing to see Ed Westwick with an 80s accent,
with an Essex accent, rather than have him being his American suave gossip girl guy.
And you know what, being from Essex, I wince at people who can't,
who try and do an Essex accent, but it is atrocious, it's not easy to do.
But when you're born with it, you notice someone who's not really,
not getting it that well and he didn't actually
make me wince that much at all. There's probably one of
one or two dropped vowels or something
but he was really good. He was good at it. Yeah.
Dolly good. Well yeah so white gold that was
I mean that was it was funny. It kept me entertained
and my boyfriend didn't understand what it was he goes
is this in between us like ten years later? I was like
no no baby. It's just got the guys
in it. The thing is it might as well be because they are
basically their characters but I love that
I missed them. I've missed them. I've missed them and it's
nice to have them back again. Stick to what you know.
Yeah exactly. Stick to what you know.
I went to see the premiere of Baby Driver
I was so happy for you
I didn't know what it wasn't
I'm so jealous
And it is I think I'm gonna say
I think it was my favourite movie
So far this year
And I've enjoyed a lot of stuff
But I think it's just so different
Yeah
And I was like
Loving it because of the
Stylistically and just technically
How it was made
I could see that even down to
It's all based on
the songs that this getaway driver is listening to.
And it's to the point where he can't get away drive unless he's got music.
Like he has to start the song from the beginning and stuff.
There's a scene where he has to like jump start, steal a car and jump start it.
And he can't get away.
Even though people are checked, he can't until he's found something on the radio that he can drive to.
I can't wait to do this.
Because of his tinnitus, he can't.
Yeah.
Yeah, he has to have music.
So stylistically, everything, the edit, every, everyone in the background is doing something to the beat of the music.
It's just so satisfying to watch because you're like.
Like this is so smooth.
Yeah.
And there's some real, like, heartbreaking moments with his, like, foster dad, who's deaf.
And he kind of steals a lot of the film, actually.
Really?
Yeah, this actor.
Who is actually deaf as well.
It was, like, when they cast a thrill.
Because he was at the...
Amazing.
He was at the premiere, but he was signing.
Yeah.
The whole time.
I just can't recommend it enough on.
I think I'm going to go back and pay to see it again, just because I...
Yeah, I'm definitely.
going to go and see it. I saw you went to the premiere
and I thought, okay, I'll give you a hand of that one.
And I got a wee little clip because
there's a little dynamic in there. Obviously it's a heist
movie and it's like these different heist characters.
You always like sort of criminals, but criminals that you can
kind of love at the same time. So he doesn't use a
getaway driver. He's doing very bad things, but
he's realised in the story that he's
pushed and forced into it, like beyond what
he wants to do. And then
a couple of the other
heisty, robbery people, you
kind of like, you're like, oh, they're criminals
but you kind of like them as well.
Jamie Fox's character
And so I'm going to got a little clip here
About the dynamic between John Hamm
And Sky Ferreras
Because they play like a kind of Bonnie and Clyde
Oh wow lovely
So I'll play you a little bit
Oh exciting
A little clip of that
I think you're the last word and crazy
You're not
Buddy and Darling
Theirs is a very fiery dynamic
They shower each other with attention
They're kind of a Bonnie and Clyde situation
Which is very sexy and very fun
They're motivated by chasing a danger
and the excitement and the action.
He's like a gun and she's a trigger.
Buddy takes her hostage, shotgun to her head.
We've really played that a lot.
You guys perfectly, I mean,
baby driver.
Takila.
And even before you go and see the movie,
just go and check out on Spotify.
They've got the, or on like, anyway,
they've got the whole,
the whole soundtrack on playlist is already out there.
You can just already get used to the songs
because it's just, it makes me want to go driving,
but as stupid.
speak. Really? Oh, excellent. I can't wait
to see it. I do love driving and I think
that, I think as an alternative, you know when you think
oh, what else would I do? I
there's a part of me that wish I'd done stunt driving.
Really? Yeah, I really enjoy it and I met a lady
stunt driver once and she was kind of like
I want to be you. Because it was funny
because she did all this stunt driving
and she was balls of steel with that
but she was put on a job where she
was asked to jump from
sort of two stories
and she didn't want to do it.
So I was on the set at the time as an actor and
I said I'll do it because she
goes on a stunt driver I can't jump
so I ended up jumping out the building
we kind of swapped roles but
made me think like cool
she seems so awesome I'll like drive
oh wow I do like driving
but the wing mirror fell off my car
this week so I can't drive it until I get
that fixed I would just still drive it anyway
I didn't know that it's the only
mirror that you like legally require is your right
what the right I would totally get arrested then because if that
fell off I would just still drive yeah or
Gaffer type it. But you know it's actually so hard to drive
because I had to drive back from my gear with my
wing mirror missing. Someone
smacked into it and
yeah. Gosh, we've gone off
on a tangent, haven't we? Right.
More of the story, guys, don't drive
without your wing mirrors. And also
go and watch baby drivers. Yes.
There we go. Oh my God.
Wrap it up nicely. Well done.
There was something else that I was
going to recommend on. It's gone out of my mind.
Oh, there's loads of stuff
coming out on Netflix, which
I'm loving.
And I watched Stranger Than Fiction last night.
Is that Will Feral?
And Emma Thompson.
I'm so,
and Queen Atifa.
I've actually never seen it.
I know.
I'm late to the party.
It came out.
I'm a big Will Ferrell fan.
Yeah.
And I thought it was going to be a Will Ferrell,
you know,
Ha, ha, ha.
Hilarity, stupidness.
Yeah.
And it wasn't.
It was actually like a really,
it was like more of a drama.
Oh, wow.
And it was about, yeah, like,
Will Ferrell,
Will Ferrell, like, genuinely,
you know, with his acting chops,
crying.
and stuff. I love seeing that. I love
seeing, you know, really stupid
comedic actors. Suddenly turned.
Proving to us that they are so
talented. John C. Riley, Jim Carrey, when I see them, and even
Danny McBride in Aalien, that was nice to see when
it is. I love that. I love that, yeah.
That's all sexy. That you can act.
Yeah, so Stranger Than Fiction, it's on Netflix
and it is about a guy
who lives a very lonely life,
very repetitive office life
and he starts to hear
the whole of his life is narrating,
by Emma Thompson and he starts to hear her voice
and it's a bit weird in an abstract
in the way that Emma Thompson plays a writer
who has written about him
and she's going to, she thinks that she's writing a book
but what she's actually doing is writing his life.
So whatever she writes in the book
happens in life and then it was the day
that she decided to kill off the character
and he became aware that it was like
the day that Henry was going to die.
He's like, no, so he's got a right.
race to find the writer to say no no I'm real whatever you write happens um but within so I thought
oh hilarious but within that it was actually more of a look at about um driving your own train in
your life yeah and who controls your destiny you or someone else and and um and because this guy's
quite he's quite anal with the way you know he would he would brush his teeth exactly 178 times and
he would get this exact train and whatever and it's like breaking out of your habits of your
of the mundane of your life and like living life you only get one
all that kind of jazz and a movie
so it was a good little pick-me-up on a Sunday
not, it wasn't even Sunday night last night, was it?
No, I'm not sure what it's wrong with you, it's Thursday.
It was Thursday. Come on now.
But it felt like a Sunday.
You know what I mean?
I don't know what month I'm in.
I don't know what day of the week it is.
What a miss.
It is officially Friday, isn't it? Yeah, for sure.
And we are not at Glastonbury. I've worked out that much.
Yeah, I'd rather not be, to be fair.
Oh, really?
Oh, it's too much.
far too much effort. So many people in my life, I'm a festival girl and so many people in my
life always said, you should go to Glastonbury? And I'm like, do you know me? Do you know that I would
never put that much effort in to walk 20 minutes between stages? That there's too much to do.
Is it? The other way, I can just pitch myself up by the main stage and that's it, you know,
beer in hand, well, vodka in hand. And not have to worry about sodding around everywhere.
But the people that are there, you know, I've got some friends that are there, they're saying it's,
you know, really a good one. Yeah. And so muddy.
This year it's been, like, normally it's just like a complete washout.
But this year it's been rather hot.
But, you know, you don't have to go because they stream it all to TV anyway.
So I think I'm just going to kick back tonight in my PJs.
And just maybe make a little tent in the living room.
You do.
Fault.
There we go.
I love it.
Yeah.
And I can have my...
Getting some beer.
Yeah.
Some nice food.
Snacks.
Get some cheesy chips.
And I get an actual toilet.
Yeah.
But I can use it my leisure.
And a bed that you can sleep in that's not inflatable.
Mm.
