And these group of like 16 year olds come over, just took my balls, just wouldn't give me back. And they just booted it in the tree. Character building. This man has ran a PB in the marathon.
Starting point is 00:00:53 Thank you. We've got a Q vlog coming up against Wafflin. He absolutely promised me he'd be good at some of them because he played basketball. I was more successful in basketball than you were in football. Two levels below international level. I don't believe that.
Starting point is 00:01:09 That's what I'm... Or warfare eventually, it'll be just like fought between drones. What about... There won't be wars anymore, because if there is a war, someone gets nuked and we all die. No, we'll be using dinosaurs. We're all likely to get world peace. Well, think about it. Unwoke television programmes.
Starting point is 00:01:24 Yeah, like... Little Britain. Balls of Steel. Correct. Comedy is crap now. Well think about it Unwoke television programs Yeah Little Britain Balls of Steel Correct Comedy is crap now I had a near death experience I'm riding down this thin road And this car
Starting point is 00:01:32 I swear to god It was going like 80 miles an hour It was Dom Toretto Let's make a promise To the listener That we will not Talk over each other
Starting point is 00:01:42 And thank you for 50,000 subscribers Lewis has become Everything he hates By the way First of all Dad shoes, Theo. That we will not talk over each other. And thank you for 50,000 subscribers. Lewis has become everything he hates, by the way. First of all, he started running. Second of all, he's now cycling and he's getting Lycra. You know what's crazy? Him holding a coffee there is like,
Starting point is 00:01:59 that is prime Theo Baker in a snapshot. You actually do look like Theo Baker. It's crazy how much you've moulded into him. I'm starting to realise. Well, you do imprint off the people who you're around the most. And I'm choosing Theo. Well, no, you're the average
Starting point is 00:02:10 of the five people I could have became a shagger, an athlete, or... Speaking of athlete, who do you think is going to win the Masters? Because we should put it out there. Oh!
Starting point is 00:02:30 Rory. Bafia. Actually, Batiya. Batiya, yeah. He's 50 to 1. On all that, I've got Potter Cup coming up at the end of the month.
Starting point is 00:02:36 How do you know all the odds of the players? So I'm going to have a bet on it? On the Potter Cup? No. You're not playing golf again. I am. I'm playing the Potter Cup at the end of the month. No, you're not.
Starting point is 00:02:44 I'm doing that bike ride and then I'm doing Potter Cup a week later and then I'm getting surgery. That's the plan. You're not playing golf again. I am. I'm playing a pot of cup at the end of the month. No, you're not. I'm doing that bike ride and then I'm doing pot of cup a week later and then I'm getting surgery. That's the plan. You picked it in? No.
Starting point is 00:02:50 Wow, you really are just following in his footsteps. Yeah. This is crazy. No, but like obviously we lost really badly last year.
Starting point is 00:02:55 It's weird, mate. I copy everything I do. Doing a bike ride, a golf, and then surgery. Then surgery after when it's needed. That's like the...
Starting point is 00:03:03 Weird. Drinking a cappuccino in my jacket. Did you say Rory, by the way? Yeah, I think Rory Dog's got it. I'm not my golf man. Rory Dog! By the way, unlike yous, I know what it's like to compete
Starting point is 00:03:14 at the highest level of golf. No, you don't. I will say, actually, I'm the only one who's sort of had experience of playing in front of a crowd. What's that got to do with anything? I mean, in terms of a crowd of people's that got to do with anything? I mean, in terms of like a crowd
Starting point is 00:03:27 of people that don't know you, yeah, I suppose so. I play like actual competitive golf, but you know, it doesn't matter. What's this got to do
Starting point is 00:03:32 with us predicting who's winning the Masters? Yeah, what does it have to do with you and Pottercup? I used to talk about Masters and golf. I just brought up Pottercup.
Starting point is 00:03:38 So why is it happening so early this year, the Pottercup? It's actually, it's more that last year it happened later. It's a mixture of, we have a mate who's like goes travelling and that he's moving off to canada fucking boring so we
Starting point is 00:03:48 have to do it earlier in the year he has to find himself again how are you going to play golf when you don't have an acl this is what i'm saying you can't play you can't rotate well no this is the problem i have i have to play because the tournament must be played so i i will not be playing without you can't you be designated every player play. Lou, why can't you do like, I'll be the designated putter or the driver? No, it has to be strict. It's strict rules, man. You can't have a stunt double standing.
Starting point is 00:04:12 We've been through this. You know how important this is. Do you not have any other friends that can play? No, not one of the putters, though. It's kind of a deep law. Yeah, they're not one of the putters. Lou, you're not going to hit your driver, are you? No, I'm thinking I'm going to steal a hybrid
Starting point is 00:04:24 and play really soft on it. I think it's actually going to improve my game Lou, you're not going to hit your driver, are you? No, I'm thinking I'm going to steal a hybrid and play really soft. And I think it's actually going to improve my game. I think because normally I'm trying to hit far. Take a seven iron on every tee shot. Yeah. I think play it really slow. Good shot game. Don't use the hybrid.
Starting point is 00:04:33 That's a silly, silly idea. Yeah. I'm probably just going to end limp banana. But like, if we win the potter cup, it's fucking beast mode and it's worth it. You lost it back to back years.
Starting point is 00:04:41 Yeah. I'm sort of one of the, of the belief that we're never going to win it ever again. How many... You're just going to keep getting continuously beat by it when you go, oh, fuck it, man.
Starting point is 00:04:51 No, we all play every year, but we've already won once at least. Hear me out. You get Reeve to wear glasses, Adidas tracksuit. Do you want to come to Lancashire at the end of the month?
Starting point is 00:05:02 You're doing it in Lancashire? I think so. Why aren't they doing it abroad? Mate, I think it's just like money things. Sorry, you're sending me to the arse end of Burnley to pretend I'm here.
Starting point is 00:05:11 I don't know if it's Lancashire. I don't know where it is. It's somewhere. But someone couldn't afford it, basically. They fucked up their money. Let's face it, they ain't going to notice
Starting point is 00:05:17 there's something new in Lou. That's true. Two athletes in their prime. Well, no, now I'm more you. You should come. What are you more nervous for? The pot or cup or the bike ride? The bike ride.
Starting point is 00:05:25 I think the bike ride is one of those things where... Can we show the video of Lewis trying out his new bike? Yeah. The problem is with the bike riders, I've never done anything
Starting point is 00:05:34 on my legs anyways, never mind fucking me leg. Why don't they go just on their phone, by the way? Sorry, I was just getting rid of... I'm doing my master's picks. So it's quite relevant. You could do that after the show.
Starting point is 00:05:42 You're on a podcast. I'm responding. Also, says him, by the way. That're on a podcast. I'm responding. says him by the way. That's bad from you. I'm responding to everything that's been mentioned so far. No, but as a listener, if you're not engaged
Starting point is 00:05:52 in the conversation, they're not engaged. You just thought your phone went, yeah. It's a visual podcast. Yeah, say sorry. Ooh, fucking hell. Terrible phone.
Starting point is 00:06:00 Should we have our discussion? Yeah, before we're rudely interrupted by Rhys. Rudely interrupted by yourself saying that I was on my phone? That's exactly what happened. Just because you're replying. If someone is at dinner, if I'm having a dinner with Lou,
Starting point is 00:06:11 and he's talking to me, but he's on his phone half-arsing it, I think that's rude as hell. Actually, you're not going to open up as much. Why didn't no one ask me who my master's pick was then? Exactly, yeah? You're fucking rude. That is true.
Starting point is 00:06:22 Conversation goes both ways. No one cares. Yeah, exactly. We were going to ask you. Actually, I went like this. But you didn't see me. Because you're on your phone lawyer conversation goes both ways no one cares yeah exactly we were going to ask you actually I went like this but you didn't see me because you're on your phone gaslighting again it was true I was there
Starting point is 00:06:30 right you had a bike that was too small for you and you got gaslit everyone's telling me that it's the right size no it was way too small for you yeah I mean
Starting point is 00:06:38 and to value your opinions or Elliot Hackney's it's like he doesn't know anything about it I know well actually no he's a former Olympic
Starting point is 00:06:45 cycler he used to do the drone race and he said he was in the Olympics cycler who? Elliot
Starting point is 00:06:51 oh he was trying to get in the Olympics yeah he used to ride around the drone the velodrome is this a joke? that's what he told me that can't be true
Starting point is 00:07:00 that's what I mean but like but like he seems on the Paralympics no but he seems like calmly confident about the bike ride so if you listen to this it's basically 60 kilometers bike ride from burton stadium to stoke um but it should be all right surely that's like uh he's only legs are too short he's a little bastard to be fair i do think it's probably like it's more like
Starting point is 00:07:24 the the running where it's like it's best off not knowing He's a little bastard to be fair. I do think it's probably like, it's more like the running where it's like, it's best off not knowing how shit it's going to be. What are you doing again? It's only 60 kilometers. Mate, it's 60K. It won't be that shit.
Starting point is 00:07:32 It'll be a couple hours. That'll be like running 10K. 5K. No, it'll be more like 10K. But is it like running? Nah, biking's way easier. I'm more worried about the knee. Well, no, it isn't.
Starting point is 00:07:42 It would be. No, because an Olympic triathlon is 5K run and 20k ride what and a sprint an Olympic is a 10k run because they're running 13k
Starting point is 00:07:51 they're sending it but he's taking all day to do 60k don't diminish what you're trying to do no no but it's over no diminish him
Starting point is 00:07:57 I'm an inspiration he's literally over the course of the day he can take as long as he wants that is the equivalent of walking in 5k he's aspiring
Starting point is 00:08:04 all those out there with no ACLs I am yeah true actually and then I'm going to win the pot of walking in five minutes. He's aspiring all those out there with no ACLs. I am. Yeah, true, actually. And then I'm going to win the Potter Cup and then I'm going to have surgery and then I'm going to come back
Starting point is 00:08:10 and become champion of misfits before it collapses. If it's still around. Yeah, if it's still around. I think it's all around. I think I'm going to put the... just stop the surgery. You've now got a new bicycle.
Starting point is 00:08:18 Thanks, Daddy. Thanks, Daddy Theo. Give me a bike. Don't lose it, though. I said to him, you'd better not lock that up outside. It's hard to ride it, isn't it? How can you lose a bike? Hard to ride it? I miss the line bikes. Just like riding a bike.'t lose it though I said to him you better not lock that up outside it's hard to ride it innit how can you lose a bike
Starting point is 00:08:25 hard to ride it get stolen I'm used to line bikes the last bike I had that wasn't electrical oh yeah that's true if you're used to a line bike nah he went on my bike
Starting point is 00:08:33 earlier this morning he was all over the place I had to teach him how to use gears you're not using clips surely I've only ever had a BMX I took the clips off this one I put normal pedals on
Starting point is 00:08:40 you should have given him the clips to try with the shoes and gone right let's see how you do and then just watch him fall over. No,
Starting point is 00:08:46 I did that once. It's fucking embarrassing. Do you know what? I was going to do that but I actually thought I'm going to take him off because I don't think his knee will be
Starting point is 00:08:54 able to get out. Oh yeah, he can't. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think if he clips in he'll be stuck on the bike.
Starting point is 00:09:00 I am quite nervous because I put it in chat the other day. I was on a bike the other day on the way home from work and it almost died. You didn the other day. I was on a bike the other day on the way from work and it almost died. You didn't nearly die.
Starting point is 00:09:08 I had a near-death experience. No, you didn't. I did. You just weren't there. They overtook you too close and you thought you were going to die. Nah, okay. So let me properly spell it out for you.
Starting point is 00:09:17 So if I said this story, they'd all call me dumb boy. Yeah, no. Dumb boy. Nah, nah, nah. I'm almost died. So riding home after a stream. I'm almost died. So riding home after a stream. I'm almost died.
Starting point is 00:09:25 Okay. We've heard it. Oh, no, they haven't though, have they? Yeah. And it's a little thin road and I had my headphones in so I can't hear much. It doesn't have a hammer.
Starting point is 00:09:31 It's your own fault immediately. Also, if you're cycling, yeah, you should only have the one that's away from traffic. Or transparency mode. Yeah, I understand that. No. So really.
Starting point is 00:09:39 Oh, don't do that either. It's kind of self-inflicted, mate. I like getting in there. I like pretending I'm in a film. Can I ask you something, Luke? Were you wearing a helmet? What film is it? The Elephant Man? Were you wearing a helmet? What film is it? The Elephant Man.
Starting point is 00:09:47 Were you wearing a helmet? No. My helmets are kind of for losers, I decided, until... You get 20% off on time as well, actually. It's not legal. Yeah, you do, yeah. Anyways, I'm riding down this thin road, and this car, I swear to God,
Starting point is 00:10:00 it was going like fucking 80 miles an hour, fucking bombed by. You don't have to wear one on a scooter. No, you don't have to. It's just encouraged. Yeah. And you're more likely to die if you get hit.
Starting point is 00:10:10 Anyway, he bombs past us in an 80 mile an hour and he was close as fuck. It was like very tight with double parked on each side and I'm just on the left. Just bombs by.
Starting point is 00:10:18 And luckily, I didn't shit myself and wiggle because I had no idea he was there because like a second later his mate goes bombs by and they were literally
Starting point is 00:10:24 right up each other's ass. And then you could see him brake testing his mate for the reward, like joking on like, I shit myself, like I almost died. So where's the bit
Starting point is 00:10:32 that you actually came into close death experience? So the problem is, if I genuinely, no, genuinely, when that first one came by, by the way, it's as close as me and Tom are together.
Starting point is 00:10:40 That's for an 80 mile an hour car. If he just nicked me a little bit, I'm going flying. So he was going 80 in a 30?. If he just nicked me a little bit, I'm going flying. So he was going 80 in a 30? Yeah, he's a fucking idiot. Right. I immediately
Starting point is 00:10:50 don't believe that. Nah, mate, he was going crazy. No one does 80 in a 30. These guys. I reckon, I reckon he was doing 36. It was Dom Toretto.
Starting point is 00:10:59 36 max. Apart from me, it's bad though. My instant thought after almost dying was, fuck, I wish i was vlogging that because like i normally have a little video going on my way back i think they were i think they thought you were cycling mikey but genuinely if i just flinched a little bit off that first one
Starting point is 00:11:15 the other one was so quick like you could have just got me fucking flying you're saying you survived because of how hard you are you didn't flinch the worst yeah yeah i didn't want to say myself the worst thing is though the last thing i would have seen is him without a beard and the last person i would have spoke to was theo that's a scary last i mean scary last image but that that's that's part and parcel of your normal life anyway like on your travel home that's how you would yeah so if you do die on the way home that's exactly how you're gonna go right jokes aside obviously it wasn't a proper near-death experience but I won't say it was. But I was at home and I was there
Starting point is 00:11:48 and I wasn't shaking up, but I was thinking, I was like, that's mad. If I just died there, like Theo would be at my funeral. You could say that about anything. You'd have to number one recite the last conversation we had,
Starting point is 00:11:58 which would have been... Don't die on the way home. You do realise... Using my morning family, watching Theo. Theo was the last person who spoke to Lewis. What did you say to him, Theo? I told him to wear a helmet. He said no, he'd be cool for it.
Starting point is 00:12:12 I wouldn't go to your funeral. But there's not... Why are you not invited? How do you know? You're not inviting people. You're dead. You're dead? You know, you're... Actually, I might go just to make sure you're definitely dead.
Starting point is 00:12:27 I hate watching this. You want to hear about a real near-death experience on a bike? Yeah, go on. Me and Reeve and Callum, Freezy, were there. Do you remember that? In Richmond? Oh, yeah. On your phone, in the podcast. Wow. Oh, my God. Wow.
Starting point is 00:12:43 It's podcast prep. It's podcast prep. It's podcast prep. Wow. It's podcast prep. It's podcast prep. It's podcast prep. This is a real need. This is a real need.
Starting point is 00:12:52 This is a real need. Oh, if you tell me the plane story though. So we were going across the dual carriageway. We went across and we waited at the lights to cross over the next section. Yeah, we understand what a dual carriageway is. You know that you were talking about the clips. If you tried it, it'd fall over. Well, this is when I was new to the clips.
Starting point is 00:13:07 And as I was waiting at the red light, I couldn't unclip, fell into the traffic. Yeah, it did happen. My head went on the floor and it was a dual carriageway. And it just so happens there was a car coming on the other side of the road. But if it was on the inside of the road, my head would have been splattered into a million pieces. So he was probably further away than the car was to Lewis.
Starting point is 00:13:21 Yeah, I can't believe he's playing down my wall. It's like me saying I fell off a bike when I was a kid, but if a meteor hit me when I fell off, I would have died. You did claim that you nearly died by getting overtaken by two cars, though. I ate a man on the road without a helmet. I fell head first in the dual carriageway.
Starting point is 00:13:38 Yeah, but there was no cars there. On the other side of the road. Well, then, soon as I... Sorry, sorry, time out for a second. Everyone that cycles with cars on the road can't see the cars coming. They're behind them. Or they come the other way, mate,
Starting point is 00:13:49 and you can't see them coming. No, if a car overtakes you, it comes from a direction you're not looking in. I know, but if they sped this way, at least I knew they were coming. I had no hearing and I couldn't see them.
Starting point is 00:13:57 But you should knock your way in double head fans. You're trying to claim it. It was near death. It did get me thinking neither of them were near death. Which is closer to near death? Mine or his?
Starting point is 00:14:05 Well, I mean, you actually couldn't move, so yours. You could have... That was like a turtle on its get me thinking neither of them were near death. Genuinely. Which is closer to near death? Mine or his? Well, I mean, you actually couldn't move, so yours. You could have... That was like a turtle on its back in the middle of the road. Have you almost ever died? Surely.
Starting point is 00:14:12 Surely. Surely. 1.6am in a kitchen. Have you ever almost killed? Yeah. Oh, when I had my crash with Jack, yeah. It did get me... Oh, no, the other one
Starting point is 00:14:21 was when I got stuck in the slide. That was near death. I could have died. I think you've said this before. It's not near death. It felt like it. Is this where your dad was tossing you off in the slide? Well, I don't remember that bit.
Starting point is 00:14:33 That's what he told us on episode one. I knew when you did the high rocks. That was near death. No, it wasn't. Okay. Do you almost die? Or was it the plane one, your closest one? Oh, the plane was bad. I never felt that that was near death though um but you're hard as nails no but everyone else around me felt like oh
Starting point is 00:14:51 my god we're really struggling now i'm like chip said goodbye to yeah he actually did you know he started texting sabine and being like i really love you also the air hostesses were also saying thank god we're alive yeah it's pretty morbid though when you're on a plane and they all could just go brace brace yeah and it's like a fucking yeah it's like a whole ritual and you're like hang on that's my dream yeah and it's all it did finally i was swimming once in like in a river in france but like to cross it was quite a long swim you told us this yeah i had the shoes on i thought i was gonna die that was not near death either i felt i felt i got to the end i said oh i've made it it did get me like no when i go home right i'll sit there and like i was thinking it was
Starting point is 00:15:33 mad like charlie would have been message message and like like what would she do in that and it got me thinking like what when you're there and you're like nearly dying you have an either experience it sort of gives you an epiphany. And you just wouldn't stand. You did that sort of thing I do there. Did you do that? What, the entire get-up? Yeah. But it got me thinking like,
Starting point is 00:15:52 would everything you... I've got robbed at knife point. That's near death. Have you? Really? I've done like year seven, but... Damn. Fucking robbing year seven's at knife point.
Starting point is 00:16:00 Yeah, that's on my phone. I was like, yeah, okay, you can have it. Yeah, it's like, mate, no knife is necessary. If you're seven, you can have it. If you're 30, okay, you can have it. Yeah, it's like, mate, all life is necessary. If you're a seven, you can have it. If you're 30, you can have it. Yes, you may have it. Yes, you may.
Starting point is 00:16:09 I've only got Snake on it. That was an E900, man. Oh, man, I was so gutted. I wonder where that is. E900. A Samsung E900. You've never had one of them? I might be near, right, actually.
Starting point is 00:16:19 Is that the slidey one? Oh, man, I was so gutted. Oh, they were big. Such a sick phone, man. I had the Nokia equivalent though but I don't know what the number was
Starting point is 00:16:28 and then my dad wouldn't let me he wouldn't buy me another one for ages I don't know why he blamed me for getting my phone robbed
Starting point is 00:16:35 from like 15 year olds I was only like 11 you know that happened not with the knife but with me and Gibb in Ukraine you got robbed by monkeys though so not with a knife and but with me and Gib in Ukraine. You got robbed by monkeys, though.
Starting point is 00:16:45 So not with a knife and by a monkey. Well, no, the monkey was the distraction. Next thing you know, we were surrounded by all these... Other monkeys. Yeah, and guns. Not guns, and guys. There was loads of monkeys. He had a fucking nappy on.
Starting point is 00:17:00 No, no. We were like, oh, look at this cute monkey with a nappy. Let's take a photo. Then he was like, yeah, now pay us for the photo. Are you sure it weren't him? They walked us 20 minutes to a cash point. For a monkey photo.
Starting point is 00:17:09 Me and Gibb were shitting it. We were like, we don't know what's in their pockets. We went under like an underpass with them. Why? You just said no. Was there no one else about?
Starting point is 00:17:20 They took us out of the, it was the Champions League Festival. They took us out. Yeah, but just see, I'm not going to say no say There's loads of people here There's a lot of witnesses You're not going to kill me here When there's like
Starting point is 00:17:30 Seven blokes around you It is a bit like Intimidating Not just to be like No No But you know It's annoying
Starting point is 00:17:35 It's annoying though Because when they took us Just us When there was no one there That was quite scary Yeah that Because you let everyone You put yourself in that situation
Starting point is 00:17:43 Yeah we realised that in hindsight When there's thousands of people around, I don't think I'd be that intimidated. They're probably just walking the mall. Help! Help! They're walking the mall thinking, I can't believe they're following.
Starting point is 00:17:51 The frustrating thing is that when we got to the cash point, we got money out and they were like, no, get more out. Well, yeah, but then they had to buy the mollusks. Do you know what's worse? I said, fuck no. By the way, that's definitely. And then do you know what happened?
Starting point is 00:18:02 We walked off, they did nothing. I was like brilliant I knew death You got wrong The worst Primal wars Of all time You don't know
Starting point is 00:18:12 They could have had a gun Or something We really thought The nappy monkey Would do the trick You know That usually works It was scary
Starting point is 00:18:23 It was scary Monkey falls out two bananas. Corporal Willy Wally. God, he's got a big cock. Oh, it's a banana. Just pulls you out, shoves you up your arse. Sorry. I started searching up people anyways who like life work,
Starting point is 00:18:36 like accumulated to, what it accumulated to and like, was it worth it? And I found the guy who invented the smiley face. Brilliant. Was it me? No, actually, no, it's not you. Although that's a great clip. But this guy basically spent his whole life perfecting the smiley face brilliant was it me no actually no it's not you but that's a great clip but this guy basically spent his whole life perfecting the smiley face the emoji no the potato
Starting point is 00:18:50 no no before that just a picture of a smiley face oh no he made the first smiley face how can that ever be well it's not fucking hard he spent his like life life designing a smiley face. And it ended up going worldwide. How can you spend your life drawing fucking smiley faces? Two dots, a half circle, and then a full circle. Yeah, but there's more to it, isn't there? It's more like the length of the smile. Does it have dimples? Does it not?
Starting point is 00:19:17 That sounds like a guy who has a lot of smiley hands. The shape of the eyes. Anyways, it went viral. It made him hundreds of millions of pounds. But do you want to see him pause it? No, it didn't. No, it didn't. Do you want to see him?
Starting point is 00:19:26 How did it make him hundreds of millions of pounds but do you want to see him no he didn't do you want to see him how did it make him hundreds of millions of pounds because he invented what do you mean he invented the smiley face so every time he would just put a little TM or R in the bottom corner
Starting point is 00:19:33 did he copyright the smiley face yeah there's disputes and stuff but like he eventually finished it when he was like 80 and by the time
Starting point is 00:19:42 he finished it this is a picture of him with his final smiley face and look how fucking miserable he is isn't it meant so this is like the cheek thing i've actually seen that so isn't it isn't it mental like that's the creator of the smiley face he's put all of his energy into the fucking picture if i died that's how you know me that's how you know like that smiley face isn't realistic because he was drawing it
Starting point is 00:20:07 because he's never fucking smiled in his life. It's crazy though. That doesn't look like a millionaire to me. That's the, that's the, that's the draw,
Starting point is 00:20:13 that's the hero of the smiley face. Are you saying right now that you had a realisation of that you need to start living in the moment and be happy now instead of stressing
Starting point is 00:20:21 over every minute thing? Yeah. Is that what you're saying? I could copyright like drawing a cup. You did. That's obviously what I'm a card everything we've said to you over the last year or so you now believe is to be true perhaps damn you've opened your eyes pretending i had it all together i need to escape circumstances. I am not a doormat. Stories that heal.
Starting point is 00:20:48 Share yours. Together, we are unsinkable. We are unsinkable.com. Not too much. Oh, God. God, God. Yeah, man, but that's the guy who drew a smiley face. Can I genuinely...
Starting point is 00:21:03 What did you show with that? Did he make money off that picture then? Yeah, there's loads of copyright disputes, because people are using it as like, it's a smiley face, I'll use it. But he's like, I fucking invented it. He didn't though. I can't believe that.
Starting point is 00:21:15 There should be a film about that. Well, did you not have the same realisation when you shaved off your beard? What, about smiling? About what's life about. Well, I haven't always thought what's life about it's still that's life it's just it's weird looking at snow how has it been being a beardless man how's your life changed i still want to kill myself i feel like we should probably explain to people here because
Starting point is 00:21:37 there's some people who watch no don't no we can't no no context i think people if they're fucking there's people who watch or they can go watch the other show. There's no way. I swear down there is. It's mostly females. I don't think that's true. So the crossover of just people that watch here and not that show is... If you know about this,
Starting point is 00:21:55 people come up and they're like, oh, I love Backside and they don't know what Pitchside is. No. She did the half marathon. Yeah. That's a good example. Oh yeah, there was a woman
Starting point is 00:22:02 listening to Backside in the half marathon. I met her as well. Her views were ahead of me. example. Oh, yeah, there was a woman listening to backside in the halfback. Yeah Well, I met her as well when you were ahead of me. Yeah speaking of Achievements, I think a round of applause is in order No, not you don't clap. Oh, why I'll speak that you don't This man has ran a PB in the marathon And you're next Anyways, so how was it I was
Starting point is 00:22:25 mate what a day Brighton I honestly think Brighton might be one of my favourite cities in the world why
Starting point is 00:22:30 I don't think I've ever been to that why Brighton why well he already started laughing before I finished the sentence
Starting point is 00:22:35 did you know I don't think I've ever been to that place you look like you'd fit in in Brighton when it's not being sunny no you'd look like you'd fit in there
Starting point is 00:22:42 what are you trying to do here well I think seeing that looks like your like area the seaside there. What are you trying to do here? I'm saying that looks like your area. The seaside views. Sunny, fair. Lovely. Short, nice.
Starting point is 00:22:48 As you said, eccentric. You know Brighton's the gay capital of the world? Right. I didn't know that, no. Aidan went to Brighton here recently and he said there was a lot of gooch. And he bombed a man! A lot of gooch?
Starting point is 00:22:59 Yeah, a lot of gooch. But then that confused me because I was like... What does that mean? Yeah, I was like, for a lot of gooch, it's just a lot of people without clothes on. No, that would imply that his personal experience was just like he saw a lot of gooch. But then that confused me because I was like... What does that mean? Yeah, I was like, for a lot of gooch, it's just a lot of people without clothes on.
Starting point is 00:23:05 No, that would imply that his personal experience was just like he saw a lot of gooch. Yeah, that's what it was. Why did he see loads of gooch? I think people just didn't wear pants,
Starting point is 00:23:12 he was saying. What's he on about? Do you realise where the gooch is? Yeah, I don't think he realised. Is he like going up on the people?
Starting point is 00:23:19 But I think it was just like people just like... That is a bit of a weird thing to admit anyway. I don't know. Is he might be a perv? Are you sure he wasn't winding you up?
Starting point is 00:23:26 Maybe. People wouldn't do that to me. Oh yeah, everyone's very serious with you all the time because you're a serious guy. I am. People take you seriously.
Starting point is 00:23:33 I'm very philosophical. People do take you seriously. They don't laugh at you all. It is marathon season though. Prodigy's doing one at the weekend. Marathon season. Chip and Cow are doing the London
Starting point is 00:23:40 and then you're the week after prod. No. Cycling. No, cycling's less No. Cycling. No, cycling is less boring. Cycling, cycling is genuinely
Starting point is 00:23:49 probably one of the best sports in the world. Cycling is pretty fun. You go and see the world and it basically costs zero effort to do so. And also when you're going downhill,
Starting point is 00:23:56 you don't have to do anything. That literally isn't true though, is it? That's your legs. My legs are going to be fucked. As soon as I hit a hill, I'm going to kill myself. You've just said cycling
Starting point is 00:24:03 is you can go and see the world for no effort. Yeah. How does that make any sense? You can bike the entire way. No, as in go to the countryside and stuff. What?
Starting point is 00:24:13 That's seeing the world. Have you seen the countryside in the UK? Yeah. I imagine he might have once. He lives where I'm from. He's got a lot of countryside. I think we should all go on a group cycle.
Starting point is 00:24:26 Don't change the subject because you said something stupid. No, I'm doubling down. Funny you say that. I'm doubling down. All right, then. If I want to go and see Peru. Stop being so fucking negative. How do I get there?
Starting point is 00:24:37 Cycle. Okay. I'll cycle to Peru, though. Would you say that, you know, obviously you're getting married and you've got a few stag do's coming up. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:49 Is there anything you would like to do on stag do's? Because viewers don't know on Pitchside we're doing Come Stag With Me.
Starting point is 00:24:56 That's on this one. It's tough mate. Remembering four podcasts is difficult. It's on Backside. Yeah then Hometown's on Pitchside. What the fuck would you do
Starting point is 00:25:03 Come Stag With Me on Pitchside? Yeah, it's good for you. I don't actually know, you know. I've finished my semi-big event for the year so I remember just getting pissed. It's quite cool. You're getting four stag dudes.
Starting point is 00:25:14 You are. I'm getting more than that. What? Because I'm getting my actual ones as well. Well, yes, three from us. That's three from us and then the actual one. One stag dude.
Starting point is 00:25:21 Oh, I'm probably going to have two though. Why would you have two stag dudes? Because I can't take my dad and stuff onto the one that... No, you're supposed to. Why not? It's a bit too Oh, I'm probably going to have two though. Why would you have two stag do's? Because I can't take my dad and stuff onto the one that... No, you're supposed to. Why not?
Starting point is 00:25:28 It's a bit too I'm going to take... I'm planning to remade to one. I'm going to bring his dad to Bedadon. I was going to do... What are you
Starting point is 00:25:31 planning? What do you think is happening on the stag do? Just a lot of crazy shit that I don't want my dad to do.
Starting point is 00:25:36 Yeah, he wants to be... Yeah, he would love it. Like what? He's a very innocent man. I don't...
Starting point is 00:25:40 Yeah, well, we're going to corrupt him. No, he's not, mate. You're going to see a different side on that
Starting point is 00:25:44 stag do. You haven't seen his rap sheet? Yeah. Could he have shagged a prost you're gonna see a different side. I reckon you haven't seen his rap sheet Yeah, could you have shagged a prostitute? He's a pedophile There's a pedophile so wait you think you're gonna get strippers in that on your stag do I don't know cuz I'm not planning it But I mean that usually does happen, doesn't it? I don't think that's correct. Oh, actually, this is probably embarrassing. I don't think I've been on a stag do with strippers.
Starting point is 00:26:07 I've never been to... I haven't. I've never had lap dance. I've never. You've never been on a stag do? Luke, you went to that... No, I've only went on one stag do. Yeah, the first half of the...
Starting point is 00:26:15 You mean... The first half of the statement of prize. You went on a stag do. No, we're just coming up to that age now. Oh, yeah. What are you talking about? Where people are getting married. Is Tom in charge of your stag do?
Starting point is 00:26:25 Me and Freezy. That was the original plan, right? Or the winner of Come Stag With Me. I was setting that up for you guys. Yeah, whoever wins Come Stag With Me. That's fine with me. I'd love to plan your stag do. If you'd consider me for the role,
Starting point is 00:26:39 I'll be eternally grateful. Well, you're obviously all considered. That's the whole point of the show. Definitely not going to be rigged. Well, yeah, that's great because I haven't had a choice in what I'm doing for my stack do for you. Wait, he picked yours?
Starting point is 00:26:51 Basically. I sort of helped. Oh, Lewis! Well, there's two viable options. Because Theo wants to do this and I want to do that. All right, I'm going to do it. The viable option was,
Starting point is 00:27:03 oh, we'll go to the Cube and F1 our kid on something we're trying to get sponsored and it's that London bit. No, I I was like, do you think? Just choose it for me then. Oh, we'll go to the Cube and F1 Arcade on something we're trying to get sponsored and it's that London base. Don't ruin the thing. It's supposed to be a surprise for me. No, we're not doing it.
Starting point is 00:27:11 That's not going to be big. My idea was, because he was like, yours has got to be a cheap one. All right, great. No, it's not. Yours is the medium price. Mine's the cheap one.
Starting point is 00:27:18 You told me it's got to be cheap. It's cheaper than what you wanted. And then also, we could have a day in London just doing different games like Flight Club, the Cube, F1 Arcade. Just getting pissed. Yeah, great.
Starting point is 00:27:29 It's not a good video. It's boring. That's what I mean. I'm a good producer. I don't care about the video. Well, I do care about the video. That's why I... We're doing it for him.
Starting point is 00:27:35 No, that's the real one. That's the real one. Oh, right. It's a video. Sorry. So I'm not getting three good days out. No, you are. I'm just fucking turning up and shooting again.
Starting point is 00:27:44 Trust me, mate. You're going to have the best one. What about me getting shooting again i don't even know what i'm doing for you now you know what tom you know he's giving you shit for yours here's one i planned by the way by the way i can't even the message i can't believe the only thing that he's contributed i challenge you to say one more thing than this is you've asked the people i need the things i need from them so without me you have none of it no i've came up with the entire concept and everything all he's done is send a few messages and he's like oh in the intro please you have to say say thanks to theo in the intro because he texted a few people all he's done yet come up with an idea
Starting point is 00:28:19 your ego is out of control it actually is because I came up with the entire idea. The only person I owe thanks to is the people next door there who helped me a little bit. You had an idea, and this one made it happen. You asked the people I need. This one made it happen. No, it's not.
Starting point is 00:28:32 Do I get free shout-outs for proposing to Meg? No. No. Ugh. Why would you do that? No, it's a joke, because obviously
Starting point is 00:28:42 taking credit in the interest is a bit weird. Oh, Tom, you should do a Sten. What's that? A Hendo. A Hendo. And a Stag.
Starting point is 00:28:50 It's not the only M. We've got a Q blog coming up against Waffling as well. That'll be our tune after this.
Starting point is 00:28:57 I'm actually very jealous that I couldn't partake in it. We could have done with you. Bantam's a bit dated though, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:29:00 Bantam's a bit dated. We could have done with that. Theo was corrupted that whole time. That'll be our tune. Obviously, I don't want to go too far into Waffling. Oh, yeah't it? Bantam's a bit dated. We could have done with that. Theo was corrupted that whole time. That'll be all soon. Obviously, I don't want to go too far. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:07 It's pretty fun. It's pretty fun. Yeah, it's pretty fun. The fucking blind cheats, but yeah, it's fun. Don't ruin the video. How long are you in the thing for? Do you know that?
Starting point is 00:29:17 Yeah, but a lot of that was fanning about. It would be really fun in like a double date vibe. Yeah. Really. Yeah, it would be really fun. Or just with your mates. Yeah, or like a 2v2. Yeah. It's quite good. Yeah. Really? Yeah, it would be really fun. Or just with your mates. Yeah, or like a 2v2. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:26 It's quite good. We argued quite a lot, but when we cooked, it was exciting. It had the adrenaline. Them two, it made me realise how much better Tom is
Starting point is 00:29:35 at sport than Lewis. Oh, really? It's embarrassing. It weren't even sport. Yeah, you're right. Basic catching skills. Yeah, hand-eye coordination. He absolutely promised me he'd be good at some of them
Starting point is 00:29:46 because he played basketball. No, no. No, no, basketball. Why? This is the thing. This is what was happening. It was point, point, point. On the basketball, he was actually on his first attempt.
Starting point is 00:29:55 I never claimed I'd be good at that. You were worse on the first attempt. I really wasn't. You missed the first one. Oh, yeah, you did first. I got further than he did. He got that, and it was all laugh, laugh, laugh. Wait, wait, wait.
Starting point is 00:30:04 No, yeah, I missed the first bucket. Who got further? Yeah, but also you didn't. Who got further? he did. And it was all laugh, laugh, laugh. Wait, wait, wait. No, yeah, I missed the first bucket. Who got further? But also you didn't. Who got further? It's all right, you can miss the first one. I still got further. You didn't claim to be an ex-professional basketball player. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:30:13 I didn't even want to do that one. You said you played National League. Nah, you're a netball player. I was National League. And the one where I took control of that one. We got that. No, that was the only time we had actual team work. When's that coming out? When can we tease the viewers? That will be the end of this month. It will be coming out. We got that. That was the only time we had actual team work. When's that coming out?
Starting point is 00:30:25 When can we teach the viewers? That will be the end of this month. It will be coming out. Who played their sport at the highest level? Lewis in his basketball, Elliot in his cycling. I mean,
Starting point is 00:30:36 they both did it recreationally. I was more successful in basketball than you were in football. I was technically two levels below England. Which is still was technically two levels below England. Which is still shit. Two levels below international level. I don't believe that.
Starting point is 00:30:51 That's what I was. Right, right. Which is still shit. What's not? Have you ever been paid to play basketball? That's irrelevant. Of course it is. Of course it's not.
Starting point is 00:30:59 Of course it is. I've been paid to play football. Just because you're a D1 superstar, mate, over in America. I don't understand how the system works, then, if you're two levels below England. Isn't that just a club level? No, National League.
Starting point is 00:31:13 That's National League. So you go from being in a county to just being in the country. Also, you're forgetting Lewis. I'm not. National League is I'm going across England. Also, Lewis, the standard of football is a lot higher than the standard of basketball in this country. National League? Yeah. It's a National League. Yeah, so you go from playing a county. National League is I'm going across England. Also, Lewis, the standard of football is a lot higher than the standard of basketball in this country. National League?
Starting point is 00:31:25 Yeah. It's a national league. Yeah, so you go from like playing each county. So it's not a county. No, you go from... No, you have teams like... I was the Durham Wildcats. And then you have like the Newcastle Eagles
Starting point is 00:31:35 who were like way better than us. We were shit. And then there was some teams who were just... There was one team who just had a geezer who was like six foot five. Fucking just a big orf. Which isn't even that big in basketball. And all of us were taught.
Starting point is 00:31:48 Yeah, it's pretty average height to be honest. All of us were only like fucking four foot because we're kids. And he was just doing this. It wasn't even basketball. No offense to basketball in this country, but if you're playing at that level. It's terrible.
Starting point is 00:31:57 The quality was so bad. No, I promise you. I'm not going to lie. If you saw some of the people that was on my team, you'd be like, that's... Oh yeah. I was one of the... You know what's crazy? They say the same thing. Don't say you're one of the best. No, I wasn saw some of the people that was on my team, you'd be like, that's... Oh, yeah. I was one of the... You know what's crazy?
Starting point is 00:32:05 They say the same thing. Don't say you're one of the best. No, I wasn't one of the best, but I promise you, I was not the worst. There's some... Some what? Some questionable things.
Starting point is 00:32:12 You were just bigging it up saying how high of a level you played. I just wanted to play the game. Oh, England's really that bad at basketball? Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, no.
Starting point is 00:32:20 The good people are good, but compared to America, we're shit. Anywhere in Europe? Well, they're world champions, aren't they? Spain are good. France are good, but compared to America, where's shit? Anywhere in Europe? They're world champions, aren't they? Spain are good. France are good. Slovenia are good.
Starting point is 00:32:32 Who does Jokic come from? Croatia? No, he's not. Serbia. Have you seen his brother, by the way? Yeah. Oh my God. He's like the scariest bloke ever.
Starting point is 00:32:45 He's like 6'9". He's like the scariest bloke ever Jokic is did he also play basketball he's like 6'9 he's currently the best player in the NBA his brother is fucking massive
Starting point is 00:32:51 did his brother play basketball as well no no he looks like a mafia boss yeah like a hitman or something
Starting point is 00:32:56 but he's like double his size he's got to be about 200 kilos and he's like 7 foot 3 or something he's sat next to Jokic and makes Jokic look small.
Starting point is 00:33:06 And he's massive in the NBA as well. And Jokic is fucking huge. Yeah. He's got a big dick as well. Good God, man. Something else. Sorry, before we go on that. What am I reading here?
Starting point is 00:33:17 No, go away. It's okay, we'll get there. I did want to mention something. Do you remember the other week when Reeve crashed out and he was calling us absolute idiots and why would scientists possibly make a woolly mouse?
Starting point is 00:33:27 We were ahead of the news curve because the guy who did it has not only went on Joe Rogan talking about it, but also... Hang on. They've actually brought... That was a crazy crash out.
Starting point is 00:33:38 It was a mental crash out. Do you get handed so many L's that whenever you bring a W... Gaslight. Gaslight. I can't handle the L. are you clinging on to it four weeks later? Welcome to my world on pitch.
Starting point is 00:33:48 This is all they do. You need to be a big man here. You need to be a big man. Tom is the big man. On pitch side... He will. No, no, no. He's being sarcastic here.
Starting point is 00:33:57 Look at this. I promise you... Do you know what? Can I go inside and read Psyche? Can I go inside and read Psyche? Hang on a second. Do you know what I like about Tom? On pitch side, he's accepted his L's recently. He's on a second. Do you know what I like about Tom is that on pitch side,
Starting point is 00:34:05 he's accepted his L's recently. He's the bigger man. I'm just, I've offered a handshake. And now you, he doesn't like being wrong, The amount of L's you've had recently
Starting point is 00:34:13 is kind of crazy and you're just in denial. He hates being wrong. Do you remember his invention? It's there. Look at this fucking shit. Did I not say it was shit on the stream?
Starting point is 00:34:23 Say it now. I admit it was worse than I originally thought. That's not saying it was shit. No, that's not saying it was shit. That's fucking shit. Did I not say it was shit on the stream? Say it now. I admit it was worse than I originally thought. That's not saying it was shit. No, that's not saying it was shit. That's very different. You originally thought it was amazing. It's only because you've read the comments, though. No, it's not.
Starting point is 00:34:33 And replied to all of them. But anyways, guess what? The people who are making the woolly mouses actually have brought back a different extinct animal. Have you seen this? Yes, I have. Genuine. That's on the list.
Starting point is 00:34:44 Is it the wolf? The dire wolf? The dire wolf? Yeah. From Game of Thrones? Game of Thrones, yeah. I have. Genuine. That's on the list. Is it the wolf? The dire wolf? The dire wolf? Yeah. From Game of Thrones? Yeah. What's a dire wolf? Giant wolf.
Starting point is 00:34:50 Why? It's a massive giant. Why are we bringing that back? I'd like one personally. Why? If they bond to humans, right? So they're like the catfish. So they're basically a massive
Starting point is 00:34:59 like arctic living like huge wolf. Are we going to keep an arctic fox? No, there is a genuine reason. I think it's to do with, help with,
Starting point is 00:35:08 I think he's like the wolf's boss. So all the wolves will be protected by the dire wolf. I'll put it on the cover of Time magazine. Oh, that's not as big as I thought it would be. They're only six months old.
Starting point is 00:35:16 How do you know how big that is? It's a magazine. Not next to anything. What a comparison to the letters. Yeah, that's what I was going to say. Look at the letters. See if all the letters are big. It's the size of a bear isn't it until it rips your throat out no no the the reason the way i can compare it is in game of thrones they are massive they will get that big so i've been listening to the pod on this so it's uh they're six months old and about
Starting point is 00:35:39 85 pounds now and they'll they'll grow until they're like one and a half years old so they're going to get like big boys that's the size compared to a human and a normal wolf but it is
Starting point is 00:35:49 it is kind of mental it's double the size of a normal wolf but it's the size of a lion
Starting point is 00:35:53 because are we not going down the Jurassic Park route yeah I just don't see the point in this what are we
Starting point is 00:35:57 gaining from it the wolf the wolf has some implications with the wolves going extinct they'll help
Starting point is 00:36:04 with that and the mammoths help with the environment not extinct. They'll help with that. And the mammoths help with the environment. Not a mammoth quite yet. Don't you think humanity is just entering down a really weird slope at the moment? By the way, all warfare eventually will be just fought between drones. Or dragons if you breed. Or remote people that are fighting on the battlefield.
Starting point is 00:36:21 You won't even need to fight. Oh my god, dragons versus drones. That's why it's scarier than a nuke. What are fighting on the battlefield and you won't even like you won't even need to fight oh my god dragons versus drones that's why it's scarier than a nuke what are you on about battles there won't be wars anymore because if there is a war
Starting point is 00:36:31 someone gets nuked and we all die we're all likely to get world peace well think about it if everyone no one ever thought of that
Starting point is 00:36:40 hey guys this sounds crazy we might have some world peace I think the only way that happens is you not waking up tomorrow. Well,
Starting point is 00:36:46 think about it, right? Everyone's got a nuke. Or you actually. Then no one has. No one has a nuke. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:52 Think about it. No, but then we'd all lie, wouldn't we? No, no, yeah, I've got rid of mine.
Starting point is 00:36:56 To go back to that, if you could bring back one animal from extinction, what animal are you bringing back? The dodo. Oh. The dodos?
Starting point is 00:37:03 That is the one that they're working on. You'll be happy to hear. The saber-toothed tiger. Why though? Saber-toothed tiger is a popular one because they're kind of cool. They are working on those
Starting point is 00:37:11 but the saber-toothed tiger isn't... Have we not got enough animals that could kill us? Why do we need more? Brachiosaurus. What? Or maybe not one with the long neck. Yeah, giant lex.
Starting point is 00:37:21 Yeah, I'll bring that back. Say what you shouldn't bring back a fucking velociraptor. That would be shit. Well, he didn't say that wasn't a question though was it so an interesting thing with the saber-toothed tiger that's like there's more than one like there's just that one from ice age that we all picture and they have like essentially genuinely how they do it it's quite interesting that they get loads of permafrost versions and find the bones of them and they intersect all these bits of DNA with other relatives and sort of
Starting point is 00:37:46 comprise it together. Yeah. And that Sabertooth tiger doesn't have strong enough DNA but they do have like a different Sabertooth tiger.
Starting point is 00:37:53 This is my argument about the woolly mammoth though. He's going to try and say it was right. No I'm just saying like you're implying that they would need
Starting point is 00:38:02 to put it into a relative descendant right so there is there is actually a moral dilemma so what we're establishing is mice
Starting point is 00:38:10 are descendants of a mammoth well actually there is a moral dilemma of is say these direwolves is that a direwolf well yeah
Starting point is 00:38:20 it's kind of similar to ship of theseus is it a direwolf because it's actually comprised of maiden lab and it's you know and there's a lot of argument about what is a species yeah don't you mean like say let's call it a modern direwolf because like how do you even define like a species so that because there's arguments where like a species is defined when you can't crossbreed like so these two things that's a different spider but it's also well some people do geography like if
Starting point is 00:38:44 it's in a different area then it's a different species. But it's also, some people do geography, like if it's in a different area, then it's a different species. What about dogs? That doesn't apply to humans, does it? You know dogs, for example, all dogs can interbreed
Starting point is 00:38:51 with each other. So aren't you creating new species there? No, they're different breeds. So this is the problem. Different breeds, same species. But a wolf is a dog.
Starting point is 00:38:59 No, a wolf is a wolf. No, it's not. A wolf is a wolf. Dogs came from wolves, but dogs are a different species. A lion is a cat. Yes. Big cat. But dogs are a different species. A lion is a cat. Yes. Big cat.
Starting point is 00:39:07 But is it a different species or a different breed? Different species. It's a different species. Different breed of cat, though. Well, big cats are not the same as... Big cats are not the same as house cats, are they?
Starting point is 00:39:17 I see my point. No, I don't really. He didn't really answer anything. Is the dire wolf a wolf? Hmm. Yes. because they're I understand your question I don't think I'm
Starting point is 00:39:28 clever enough to have an answer does it matter though if it's not well the argument is from the people is it real that's the thing the argument from the people
Starting point is 00:39:34 making a dire wolf is it's like right if I had this perfect genome of mammoth but it was pink and had like silly hair oh I see is that in your idea
Starting point is 00:39:43 more still a mammoth but how can we prove what a dire wolf looked like back in the day though? They know from like the skeletons and that but there were theories where some said
Starting point is 00:39:52 they had red hair. No, but I'm saying, yeah, exactly. So you'd never know what colour it was but it could come back a completely different colour. So if we brought back
Starting point is 00:39:59 a woolly mammoth and it turns out actually woolly mammoths were like pink anyway. Or had spikes. Yeah, we just didn't know back in the day. I make paintings of wolves, woolly mammoths. They've got cave paintings of them, don't they?
Starting point is 00:40:09 I don't know, but is that... Well, that's where the time machine would come in useful, wouldn't it? Yeah, we should just invent that. The reason they know about the woolly mammoths, sorry, is because they do have them in permafrost, and it's, like, really... You have, like, live hair. Right.
Starting point is 00:40:19 But it's, like, really dark because of the mud, so they actually think it's quite bright and fluffy, like the woolly mouse. They think it was that colour. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, it's like my dark because of the mud so they actually think it's quite bright and fluffy like the woolly mouse. They think it was that colour. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, it's like my trip to Thailand. Fucking hell, mate.
Starting point is 00:40:31 Let it go. All the elephants that cover themselves in mud and stuff, they actually look brown. Yeah. But they're just grey elephants. Interestingly,
Starting point is 00:40:39 it's the Asian elephants that's the closest relative to a mammoth. Wow. Which is bigger, the Asian elephant or the African elephant? I don't know. African. Which is bigger, the Asian elephant or the African elephant? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:40:46 African. Oh, man, come on, man. African? African on math. A lot. Yeah, it's just an interesting one, but it might be five years down the line
Starting point is 00:40:53 that you say drone warfare, we might actually just have fucking dinosaur warfare. Like, we could have dragon versus drone. We wouldn't, no, because people just nuke each other.
Starting point is 00:41:00 It's not going to happen. Well, obviously, you want to clearly bring back the dire wolf, don't you? I'm a big fan of bringing back a dinosaur what else would you bring back though
Starting point is 00:41:09 a t-rex I'm talking about the comeback comeback thing we're doing is that we're doing top five comebacks oh the top five comebacks
Starting point is 00:41:17 ever you said that really nicely this year he's an idiot better than usual and you let him down sorry my g I want more comebacks
Starting point is 00:41:24 from your mum's face there's a lot of things that we want to bring back from not just our lives when we're younger but from our maybe our grandparents or your years and years back oh maybe you want to bring back torture you know what i mean the death penalty oh i didn't think of that but we've got the top five things that we need to bring are you saying in british society because those things do exist in the world still i'm just talking about my life. Okay, right, fine. My life. Who wants to go first?
Starting point is 00:41:51 Should we do one each or just individually? Oh, yeah, go on. Let's do that. Let's do one each. You start with your number five. My number five? Mine's not in order. My number five is the cane.
Starting point is 00:42:01 I think we have a lot of dickhead children. I don't mind that. What, you mean hitting people? I actually don't mind that. I'm not saying we go around schools and beat all the kids physical discipline i yeah no the cane at school yeah which is physical discipline but like he's talking about broad scheme i'm saying i specifically want the cane no he didn't yeah all he said was physical discipline yeah the cane i actually don't mind that i i used to get smacked around the back of my legs i i used to get a slap i think it teaches you
Starting point is 00:42:25 a respect for people who are older than you because you realise from a younger age you could beat me up. Although you do also get teachers who like nonce kids so maybe they'd take it too far.
Starting point is 00:42:33 Yeah. That is true. Are we allowed to do comebacks of things that were done back in the day? You're allowed to do whatever you want.
Starting point is 00:42:41 He said definitely torture before we started. You did guilty pleasures on just pleasures so you can do anything. You're allowed to do whatever you want. Anything you want. Yeah, I mean, he said definitely torture before we started. You did guilty pleasures on just pleasures, so you can do anything. But before, you're not allowed to like slap your kid anymore,
Starting point is 00:42:51 are you? Like not in the face, but on the ass. I used to get a slap on the ass. Okay, right. Fair enough, mate. We don't need to know
Starting point is 00:42:57 what you and your dad got up to, mate. Is that not how you get spanked? Slap on your, bend over again, Liv. It's a bit weird that you were 18 at the time.
Starting point is 00:43:06 My mum used to do my back and my legs, man. I used to run up the stairs. My mum used to do this where she'd do that and then slap her own hand and I'd cry anyways. So you didn't get hit?
Starting point is 00:43:15 Yeah, but I thought I did off the noise. Because I'm an empath. Because you're an idiot. Because I'm an empath. She knew you were a fucking idiot so you thought...
Starting point is 00:43:21 What's yours? Number five, I've got... Do you remember the extra strips? Oh. Chewing gum. Well, they're not. Oh, like thin.
Starting point is 00:43:30 Really thin like paper, thin like strips. And you put them on your tongue. Oh, yeah. I don't remember them. They're a class. I thought you were about chewy. It was either extra or airways. I'll get a photo.
Starting point is 00:43:39 Do you know what I saw? I can't remember where I was. I saw five gum. Mine actually is more sweeties, number five. Cadbury snaps. They would be small. Chocolate Pringles. Yeah. Oh, yeah. remember where i was i saw five gum uh mine actually is more sweeties number five uh cabri snaps they were b small chocolate pringles yeah oh yeah they were good fucking b small that was b oh do you know i haven't you remember the mini pringles in the little tub i remember them yeah and you can see how many could you fit in your mouth you still give them no No, I don't remember them. You haven't had them? No. I don't remember them. You've got a little packed lunch food. Packed lunch food, yeah. Mini Pringles, man.
Starting point is 00:44:07 My number five. Yeah, this is a bit weird, but you know how we always, if we play footy now at Fireside, we'll go to Power League? Yeah, you mean kick around at the park? Kick around at the park using jumpers for goalposts.
Starting point is 00:44:19 People still do that. They still do that. When was the last time you did that? Because you're not nine. Just nostalgia. Your next football video, go do it. I saw you go through the did that? Because you're not nine. Just nostalgia. Your next football video, go do it. I saw it through the park.
Starting point is 00:44:27 I said, imagine how fun it would be if we all just went to the park and had a kick around with jumpers for goalposts. Not now we're 30. I feel like that's nostalgia and not actually like bring it back.
Starting point is 00:44:35 I think we should bring it back. I see that all the park by me. I always see kids playing 10 streamers in a jumper for goalposts. Oh, now that's over. That was over. That's it, the post. Or bikes.
Starting point is 00:44:46 They always have bikes or jumpers in it. Bikes was good. Then you could actually get a physical post in there. It was always ideal if you got like two really good trees. We always had two class trees. That was just not practical. That's like an actual goal. No, no, because the other side had goals,
Starting point is 00:44:59 but these ones we had two greatly spaced trees. It was an unreal strip. You could all just sort of agree if it had gone over or hit the post. Yeah, we definitely didn't agree. Shit kicked off if it was close though. If it was like, if you just definitely,
Starting point is 00:45:11 yeah, fuck off, mate. You've been doing it all game, man. It's been going wild every time, you little prick. Would you choose like which footballer you were? We used to play. When I was really young.
Starting point is 00:45:21 David Luiz. We used to play, but there was a kid who was like a bit older than us and played but like do you know when you did you ever have that
Starting point is 00:45:27 like he would still come in and play but like because he's playing against kids he would probably think he was like Lionel Messi like bullying all these children
Starting point is 00:45:33 I remember the ones went down the park and my dad had just bought me the new Europa League football and I loved it right I was only about 11 yeah
Starting point is 00:45:42 it was like the UEFA Cup whatever it was at the time I got down there and I was playing with 11. Yeah, it was like the U8 for cup, whatever it was at the time. I got down there, and I was playing with my mate, and these group of like six, 16-year-olds come over, just took my ball,
Starting point is 00:45:51 started playing with it, and just wouldn't give it to me back. I just had to sit there for like an hour. They were like, and then they just booted it in the tree. Character building. And I was just like, and I couldn't do anything. They were just laughing at me. I was just like... And I couldn't do anything.
Starting point is 00:46:05 He was laughing at me. I was like... You know the total 90 aero ball? I got that first kick in the form bush. Not the same though, is it? I mean, you just got bullied for an hour. You just got... I missed the target and popped my ball.
Starting point is 00:46:22 I remember sitting there. I remember texting my sister being like, can you help me? Can you get one of your mates to come down? She just didn't reply. I once went to a sleepover
Starting point is 00:46:34 and I went in my shed. Oh my God. And there's a dead body in there. No, no, this is actually traumatic. They locked the shed. So it was like me three minutes outside and just would not let me out of the shed for entire i stayed there for a week no i swear to god i was there for i swear i'm not saying this i was there four or five hours in stock
Starting point is 00:46:51 would not let me out the shed are you sure they were your mates yeah yeah like i understand why it's funny but it was awful yeah you got bullied but it's like it's but it's not like you were bullied guys it was so funny. Oh, my God. My mates, they were definitely my mates. The look on their faces was so funny, man. They were having a great time, and I was miserable. And I was crying, but it was just so funny. As a group, collectively, it's really funny,
Starting point is 00:47:18 but just you're really miserable. See, that's what we want. That's not right, isn't it? You're just crying in a shed while you make some point and laughing. Oh shit, it was a sleepover, I was as excited as we could be. Yeah, they were not your mates. It was the first time I really got invited to their house. Went for a sleepover and they just locked me in the shed for five hours.
Starting point is 00:47:38 No, I was off the morning after, I locked the guy whose house is in the shed. I'm like, where are you in now? And he instantly just headbutted the window and stuck his head out. He's like, let me out now. And he just broke his own window. Hey, you were, you were some great man. Can I get my next one?
Starting point is 00:47:51 Because it's in relation to your sleepover you just mentioned. Sleepovers with split screen. Bring it back. Ooh, land pies. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:59 What's that? Do you ever play like Call of Duty split screen? Split screen? No. Like one on the top, one on the bottom. No. Oh, you go online. I bet you're more FIFA and you don't need Duty split screen? Split screen? No. Like one on the top, one on the bottom? No.
Starting point is 00:48:06 You go online. I bet you're more FIFA and you don't need a split screen. I never really played. You never played Call of Duty? I did, but not sleepovers. Oh, Stan used to bring his Xbox around. We'd have two screens next to each other. Also, when were you playing Call of Duty?
Starting point is 00:48:19 Like how old? Year nine? Yeah, 16, 17. You were still having sleepovers in year 10? That's a bit he watched the welcome final in his room mate
Starting point is 00:48:28 we used to just sit and do like like for a rate on facebook but everyone just wanted sorry he watched the
Starting point is 00:48:33 welcome final in his room mine is actually pretty similar to what Theo said remember that oh mate that's
Starting point is 00:48:39 no that's normal though as you say did you ever do like for a rate on sleepovers I don't understand what's weird about watching the game
Starting point is 00:48:44 like for a rate on facebook in the bedroom what's weird about watching the game. Like For Ria on Facebook. In the bedroom. That's weird. Where the TV was. I'm sorry. That is not where the only TV was. Yes, it was. No.
Starting point is 00:48:52 So weird. They don't have a TV in their living room. No. Lawyer. Because upstairs, it was like a living room bedroom thing. It had like a bunk bed and a sofa. What? Oh, don't believe this.
Starting point is 00:49:03 Anyway. I'm lying. I'm lying there my number four is kind of similar to what Fia said but just without the split screens hanging out
Starting point is 00:49:09 but with no obligation to do anything just people just come around your house and you just sit in there doing niche whatever I like that in London all the time
Starting point is 00:49:16 you have to do something you don't I agree with that just having your mate around your house and just being like alright what are we doing that's why it's nice
Starting point is 00:49:23 having like when you have a flatmate and you sort of sat down and you do it now, because it's fine. I suppose that kind of happens. You know when that does happen in the sun? Yeah, true. Or we just go here and just do what, like we did for your birthday.
Starting point is 00:49:36 I know that was your birthday, but like we just- Yeah, we sat around doing stuff. I do find it's rare in London though, genuinely. People always need to be doing something on their fly. And it's fucking exhausting. I think going to the pub is doing something. No, but that's a motive. Like, you're going in and making short-
Starting point is 00:49:48 See, that's why I disagree. Me and my mates can just go down, like, we'd go down to the pub and, like, do fuck all. Right. We don't have to play darts, and we don't have to watch something. We can just sit around having a pint. I'd like that.
Starting point is 00:49:58 But then would you class that as- I'd like friends. I'd class that as going out and doing something. I'd be nice to have friends. That really slipped out there Lou I'd love that please what if sometimes
Starting point is 00:50:08 we have people around our flat and just like watch a game or the fight yeah perfect that's exactly what I mean that's what you mean
Starting point is 00:50:12 yeah so if you have real friends that does happen yeah that sounds so great but what content would you make from that yeah good point
Starting point is 00:50:21 where's the financial benefit my next one is Kirby oh good gameby i don't see anyone playing kirby i don't mate there's like my mom and dad's road which is like there's loads of families up there and it's right by a park and when we mate we'd always be up i'd always be up that cool he sat playing like rally one two three or kirby you play slam i don't know what that is you have to smack the ball against the wall and then the other person
Starting point is 00:50:45 has to hit it. So it's kind of like squash but with a footy. I played that at school though. Yeah, but my coolie didn't have a wall to play that with. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:53 But do you not think they don't do it because it's a bit too dangerous now, isn't it? Well, why don't you see my number three? I had an honorary mention that's fairly similar,
Starting point is 00:51:01 but I don't know if you ever used to do it with your mates, but do you ever pretend there was an invisible string to stop cars and like you go inside of the road and you go
Starting point is 00:51:08 like that and the car just stopped there and then you walk off. I've never had to believe me. Did you actually do that?
Starting point is 00:51:14 No. I did that yeah. Yeah I've tried it. Have you never done it mate? It's fucking unreal. I reckon that would be pretty funny as a
Starting point is 00:51:20 kid. Cars coming down like a 40 and you go oh my god we could get them and then you walk around and then you pretend to pick it up off the floor and you go like that.
Starting point is 00:51:27 And then they just stop there and then you walk off. This day and age. No, you get fucking, they get out of the car and beat you up. Do you know what? Like on that note, like I never get snowballing cars. I feel like isn't a thing. Oh my God. It's unbelievable.
Starting point is 00:51:41 We used to go to the bus when the bus came past. You guys got snow. We fucking, we were the bus when the bus came past. It was like, we fucking, we were waiting for the school bus ride and we all bombed the fuck out of every car and that cause we're lads. But this car goes, this car goes past, we bomb it and then pulls over.
Starting point is 00:51:58 We shit ourselves. For some reason, we're all too thick. We're like deer stuck in headlights. We just don't move. And it's someone's dad from the school. He comes up and he starts fucking giving us pelters but then i feel like he reached the point where he's waiting for us to run away and he just like it doesn't happen anymore i drove past i drove past my old school not when it snowed last and i was like oh fuck me i was thinking i'm fucked out you little bastard no one did anything
Starting point is 00:52:22 i was like you do you get a lot of snow days then Abner yeah we used to break into our school on a if we had the day off for school is that should I make a comeback break into the field I really wanted to learn because
Starting point is 00:52:34 Sam learning yeah because we had massive hills so we'd go sledding on the school last time I got bombed not bombed was in the car
Starting point is 00:52:42 and like some genius kids I was actually so proud because I haven't been bummed in ages. Stop saying bummed. Is there another word possible that you can just say hit with snowballs
Starting point is 00:52:53 or something like that? So there's a big hill going up, right? And like there was a massive boulder here and I was like, what the fuck? And I drove here and then when I drove to the right side of the road,
Starting point is 00:53:01 they all came out. They put a boulder there to navigate anyone over. And I was getting bummed and bummed. I was so proud. I was getting bummed. I mean, bummed. Okay, what about next one?
Starting point is 00:53:16 I haven't said my fourth yet. Put me out of the car and bummed. But then we did take it a bit too far. Then when we had no snow, we throw apples at the bus. That's great. I put brick on the road once what the fuck
Starting point is 00:53:26 yeah it was really stupid but like do you know when you're kidding you're an idiot yeah you shouldn't have been obviously I shouldn't have put a brick on the road
Starting point is 00:53:33 I cut bricks at cars or again this is not nice this is not a good thing we'd set up a goal on the park aiming towards the road and wait for a car
Starting point is 00:53:42 to come past and pretend like the goalie would like let it in to just smash kick a ball did you ever do that with your mates
Starting point is 00:53:48 where we get I didn't mean it man we used to get someone to walk in front of us when there was like someone across the road and you pretend
Starting point is 00:53:55 you're throwing a snowball at him but you just lob it at him and then like sorry mate I was in for it the disabled kid
Starting point is 00:54:01 in the wheelchair my mate did that and he lobbed it fucking smacked him right at the end it was unreal remember you told me about that you used to throw them at the disabled kid in the wheelchair. He did that and he lobbed it fucking smacked him right at the end. It was unreal. Remember you told me about that? You used to throw them
Starting point is 00:54:08 at the disabled kid. He used to steal dust caps. No. From cars. Yeah. No. Why would you do that? Isn't that theft?
Starting point is 00:54:15 No. Also, why would you... I mean, it's nothing... I used to have a fever all the time. And bikes and stuff. Oh, poor deflated tyres. Some cars have cool dust caps and you put it on your bike.
Starting point is 00:54:25 Allegedly, I didn't do that. Oh, yeah. I used to be a right little thief. Number four. I have bring back jewels. What's that? Do you know in the Wild West or when they call you
Starting point is 00:54:36 to their awful jewel? Oh, my God. What? As in like fucking pistol jewels? To bring back more murder. Just in general. It doesn't have to be murder, but it's like, right,
Starting point is 00:54:42 you've overstepped the knell. I'm challenging you to a jewel. Yeah. That does happen. People fight. No, no, no. It's an arranged thing but it's like, right, you've overstepped the note. I'm challenging you to a duel. Yeah. That does happen. People fight. No, no, no. It's an arranged thing. It's like tomorrow at noon.
Starting point is 00:54:49 Tomorrow at dusk, we're meeting here. Like boxing. No, but it's out in the open. It's like a duel. Yeah, but like, travellers do that. They're like,
Starting point is 00:54:56 we'll have a fight tomorrow. I don't. Maybe no one's dueled me. Yeah, but did you do that anyway? No. I'm saying, when have you ever dueled? I'm saying,
Starting point is 00:55:04 bring it back in life, not me personally. I've never been around duels. I just thought it was something mint. So bring back people... Dueling. ...rocking up with pistols and then whoever gets it out first
Starting point is 00:55:15 and shoots you, the guy, wins. Or trial by combat and stuff. Lou, you'd die. What's your number three? Yeah, let's rattle through these now. My number three yeah let's rattle through these now my number three is mom said no gays allowed
Starting point is 00:55:31 in the house as crazy as it sounds my pain could help someone else stories that heal share yours together we are unsinkable
Starting point is 00:55:42 we are unsinkable.com now on this, I don't think bad stuff, but like really mild, I guess you have to call them slurs, but not the bad one. Yeah, we discussed, yeah. One of mine is bring back slurs you can say in 2006. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:02 I think all slurs should be allowed back. Like, f***. Did you really not did you really not expect this segment to go exactly like that like I caught don't double down and keep calling
Starting point is 00:56:13 yeah keep it in but bleep it on the same thing bullying yeah it hasn't really left my life yeah and look how
Starting point is 00:56:22 well he's turned out you're doing great actually he is right to be fair. Character building. It is character building. On a lighter note, prizes in cereals.
Starting point is 00:56:31 Oh, great. Yeah, I don't really... That's where they have them still, don't they? No. Not like they used to, mate. That's unreal.
Starting point is 00:56:37 Oh, do you remember the Frosties little football thing? Exactly. And Coco Pops. Yeah. Kellogg's used to do sick ones, mate.
Starting point is 00:56:42 No, wait. I thought you meant like the cereal bowls you used to get. No. Like the free cereal bowls. Do you remember the little Yeah, or like inside the packets. Yeah. Oh, you used to pick up all the time. Kellogg's used to do sick ones, mate. No, wait. I thought you meant like the cereal bowls you used to get. No. Like the free cereal bowls. Do you remember the little Yeah, or like inside the packet.
Starting point is 00:56:49 In Frosted, they had like a mini football. Yeah, you... It was like a little... You pour your thing out and then if you got it in the bowl against your brother or whatnot, you're like,
Starting point is 00:56:56 I got the prize, you little... I don't remember that. Oh, mate, they were the best. Goated, right? Why do they not exist? Don't know. Health and safety, maybe. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:57:04 Huh? Yeah. Good Lord, man. My next one not exist? I don't know. Health and safety, maybe. I don't know. Huh? Yeah. Good Lord, man. My next one is Blockbuster or video stores. Oh, yeah. Or Borders. That's a shit one, though. No, no.
Starting point is 00:57:12 I know it's nostalgia, but go into the video game store in Seaford on a Friday night to pick out Star Wars Phantom Menace. You think that's better than Netflix? Yeah, he's got a point. No, I don't. But I'd love to go do it. So you're just talking complete nostalgia. You don't actually want it back? Yeah, bring it back. I know your next speech, but I never went to a Blockbuster. Eat the shit, mate. You'd go to go do it. So you're just talking complete nostalgia you don't actually want it back.
Starting point is 00:57:25 Yeah, bring it back. I know you're an ex-beast I never went to a blockbuster. It's shit, mate. You'd go. You'd go and window shop the DVD that you want to watch. We had it in our local
Starting point is 00:57:33 it was called Billy's like a carnival. You could rent a film or a Blu-ray as well. Shit, mate. It was shit. You'd pay over the odds. We'd rent a video
Starting point is 00:57:42 for like 24 hours. It's class. The difference in convenience now is it takes 10 seconds to choose your film on Netflix or you go and spend 45 minutes picking your movie. But how excited were you to go to the video store when you were a kid? Yeah, but that's because I was a child and that was the only option. And you could look for all the videos on the VHS and like, oh, which one am I going to get?
Starting point is 00:57:58 Yeah, but you're just picking memories of when you were a kid. All right, bring back James Bond on three o'clock on a Sunday afternoon on ITV1. Athens over Christmas. No, don't. Every week. My next one. memories of when you were a kid. Bring back James Bond on three o'clock on a Sunday afternoon on ITV1. That happens over Christmas. No, don't. I do. Every week. My next one.
Starting point is 00:58:12 Original Iron Brew. Where the fuck has it gone? I never had that. Oh, it's so good. Apparently it's unreal. Honestly, my favourite drink. 2018, they changed the recipe.
Starting point is 00:58:21 And they dropped the sugar content by like 90%. And it genuinely tastes apparently if you get like an old school iron brew it's different level oh mate
Starting point is 00:58:29 it's one of the nicest drinks possible they only need to invest in old school iron brew yep who's next let's start with that yeah it's really annoying
Starting point is 00:58:36 really loud as well I just thought of my one oh that was it yeah my number two is I was going to try
Starting point is 00:58:44 and be funny and put fingering in but I think people still finger don't they Yeah. My number two is... I was going to try and be funny and put fingering in, but I think people still finger, don't they? Yeah. So my number two will be British Bulldog. Oh, yeah. Great shout. That got banned when we were young as well.
Starting point is 00:58:54 Oh, yeah. I broke my collarbone playing that. That's why it got banned. Yeah. What a fucking game. I missed the year six disco and everything. You didn't go? I broke my collarbone that night.
Starting point is 00:59:03 I was in hospital. British Bulldog. Just put a sling on. I'm in hospital. British Bulldog. Just put a sling on. I'm in hospital. You're sick. You don't stay overnight for a broken collarbone. Football training was at 6.30. Broke it in the warm-up playing British Bulldog.
Starting point is 00:59:15 Went to... This disco started at like half seven. Mate, you felt... You wouldn't have missed it anyway because you were playing football? No. Everyone finished training early to go to disco, obviously. What, you trained for half hour?
Starting point is 00:59:26 Yeah, I can't remember. Yeah, I didn't want to be funny either. Did you ever play British ball though?
Starting point is 00:59:32 Number two was fingering for me. I think you ever fingered anyone. I can't imagine him
Starting point is 00:59:41 at school being like, I fingered this bird last night, lads. I feel like this list is Lewis I can't imagine him at school being like, I fingered this bird last night, lads. I feel like... I feel like...
Starting point is 00:59:46 I feel like this list is Lewis trying to retrospectively show how cool he was as a child. None of these things have happened back in the day. I was not partaking. I'm just saying it's died off. I can still remember the first girl I fingered and where it happened. So can I, actually.
Starting point is 01:00:04 It was in the trees of like... It was on the corner of this road by mine and we were all like hanging about in the street corner and we went into like this big bushy fern tree and I was fingering up the street. It was fucking unreal man. We live different childhoods man. I didn't get near that territory for a while. We used to have them. We can tell.
Starting point is 01:00:24 Bring it back man, I mean introduce it. I didn't get near that territory for a while. We used to have them. We can tell. Bring it back, man. I mean, introduce it. Introduce it. What's your final one then? My final one is quite comfortably unwoke television programs. Yeah. Little Britain.
Starting point is 01:00:39 Balls of Steel. Correct. And films like Tropic Thunder. Yes, exactly. You've still never seen it. It's too fucking pc now man i agree so shit you know what comedy is crap now i was actually having this conversation with like a b and that on the weekend i actually think you would get away with it because so many
Starting point is 01:01:00 people would be like no we find this funny in the woke brigade would actually get it's turning now it's changing a bit again where's like can you please next episode have watched tropic fun that i beg you you'd really like it it's i've seen loads of even team america that's on woke team america's great as well someone's favorite film or not even like ali j or bruno bruno exactly well i've actually got the best one okay you. You haven't because I have. No, you haven't. I have. The chicken legend. Oh, right. In particular.
Starting point is 01:01:29 Fucking fried chicken sandwich. Salsa chicken legend. The spicy meal one was better. Barbecue. No, the salsa one was better. I've never had it. Salsa one was better. Why they got rid of that,
Starting point is 01:01:39 I will never know. But you can get a better fried chicken sandwich from KFC. Or Popeyes. Nah, you can't, mate. Chicken legend. And you're only saying this because you have an affinity for McDonald's KFC. Or Popeyes. No, you can't, mate. Chicken Legend. You're only saying this because you have an affinity for McDonald's. All yours are just nostalgia.
Starting point is 01:01:48 You don't actually want them back. Chicken Legend is my favourite thing they've ever done. And what you could do, instead of a Chicken Legend... What about the breakfast wrap? Remember the deli? Remember you have a deli or a wrap? You get a deli or a wrap. The deli is a different bread.
Starting point is 01:02:00 Oh, my days. Well, that's the worst one of all of them. I was impressed this was that was the best one possible. Chicken Legend, of course. I don't know if you know about mine.
Starting point is 01:02:08 If they bring it back, it will... What about the breakfast wrap? Does that still exist? It's still out there, yeah. It came back recently. But the whole point when they brought
Starting point is 01:02:14 the breakfast wrap back... Mate, no one gives a fuck. But the Chicken Legend, if they bring back Chicken Legend, world will end. My last one is, I don't know if you know this,
Starting point is 01:02:22 Peter's Bakery. You ever try that? No. My hairline. Every village you start one, you get four sausages, my last one is I don't know if you know this Peter's Bakery you ever try that no my hairline every village you start one you get four sausages sausage rolls
Starting point is 01:02:29 for a pound and believe it or not in my opinion they were right up there with Greg's it was fucking class okay right mate very specific
Starting point is 01:02:37 my number one are power pods what's that the little things for for crazy chocolate man get him a power pod
Starting point is 01:02:45 I don't play football yeah they don't do them anymore what are they kids now have match attacks power pods shoot the little oh to a better ball
Starting point is 01:02:52 no they weren't on the bottom you'd have like their stats they have like the big head and like the different celebrations you get different oh yes
Starting point is 01:02:59 you'd get different coloured bases I remember trying to get that's what Mini Marco was I remember trying to get I remember trying to get the Henri but in the away kit for Arsenal
Starting point is 01:03:08 for so long 2006 and when I finally no no this is like 03, 04 when I finally got him it was the best day of my life
Starting point is 01:03:16 my dad used to go down on a Sunday morning get a paper bring me back some power pods I'd open it open the chocolate have the chocolate
Starting point is 01:03:22 I've got thousands at home I've got thousands at home. I've got boxes full. That's reminded me. Is there anything that you still don't have to this day that you needed? I took to America with me my gold-based R9, my Gianfranco Zola, and my Jason Kumas. That R9 might be worth quite a bit, you know.
Starting point is 01:03:40 Yeah, but I'd never sell it. It's a gold-based, awake it Brazil Ronaldo. Would you sell it for 10's a gold base, awake it Brazil, Ronaldo. Would you sell it for 10 grand? Shut up, mate. Maybe. There you go,
Starting point is 01:03:51 you sell it. That just reminded me of another great thing that doesn't exist anymore. Do you remember game trade-ins? Yeah. I bought FIFA Street
Starting point is 01:03:58 for one pound because I gave in four of my old games and it was the original one with the Ronaldinho cover on the top. You can do that in CF. You can do that in CF. No, with the ronaldinho you can do
Starting point is 01:04:05 that see the problem is now you don't really use this it's like his blockbuster argument which is a bit hypocritical because i don't agree with that but i agree with going into a game shop and buying a game that you never knew because like you didn't know what was released and you trade in and you're like oh i've got 20 quid what am i gonna get yeah so yeah high street high street video game stores just don't really hit the same. Or going to Asda with your mom and not being like, oh, buy me this boxing game. Yeah, you just get it online now.
Starting point is 01:04:29 What about, this is a very niche, Call of Duty release day. Perfect. When you were at school. What a day that was. We got told off. I didn't really play. We used to get told off all the time.
Starting point is 01:04:39 We'd be too busy, like, too excited about Call of Duty Backup 1 coming out. FIFA dropped the same as well. No, for FIFA, did you get half price at midnight? Yeah, yeah, half price.
Starting point is 01:04:47 I only ever got them, I had to wait until Christmas. I know, but sometimes you'd find out, Asda's got it, £10 cheaper,
Starting point is 01:04:56 run! Yeah, I think towards the end, because when I started to actually earn my own money, I'd put some towards and then they would
Starting point is 01:05:02 buy me it, but yeah, I always had to wait for Christmas when it was a killer. Yeah, that's a long time. Right? You were a Christmas noob. That was a good time for us.
Starting point is 01:05:10 Put your top five in the comments. What? I said put your top five in the comments and then there's some finger guns. What the hell was that? That was weird. Problem is we've, on average,
Starting point is 01:05:20 yeah, we've lived a lot of life on average compared to, we are pretty old. I'd be interested to see their perspective, you know? Yeah, but theirs would be like four nights season one. to... They're interested to see their perspective, you know? Yeah, but theirs would be like four nights, season one. I'd like them to know what they think about the Power Pods, though, because I do think that is a better experience than a fucking card.
Starting point is 01:05:32 Because I even have the stadium. You can get the stadium and play with it. A bit like Subutio. They're probably too expensive to produce. And kids don't get to shop for their supporters. That's the end of the episode. No, I got fucked, man. I haven't done Gaz Goblin.
Starting point is 01:05:47 I got fucked as well. Man helping mom move furniture. Hang on. What's the theme? I want to know the theme. I struggled this week. It's just back to normal. Man helping my mom or mom move?
Starting point is 01:05:59 No. Mom-ish. Man helping his mom moving furniture finds long-lost lottery ticket worth $50,000. Oh, America. That'd be out of date, though. Would it? Oh, wait.
Starting point is 01:06:12 $50,000 back in there. Well, you can ask questions. Hang on. Time bending, in apostrophes, fog delays hundreds of flights at Denver International Airport. Time bending. And finally, Bulgarian club apologise after holding minute silence for a former player who's still alive. That's so true.
Starting point is 01:06:35 I can see that happening. Yeah, man. What are your first initial thoughts, Lou? This ticket, when's it from? So, a Maryland man,, when's it from? So, a Maryland man, obviously he's in America, helping his mom move some furniture,
Starting point is 01:06:51 found a stash of scratch-off lottery tickets. So I'm guessing like scratch cards, not lottery tickets. Evergreen then. And one turned out to be a $50,000 winner. The Nottingham man told Maryland lottery officials he was helping his mother move
Starting point is 01:07:06 furniture at her house when he came across the small stack of long forgotten tickets. I said, hey mom, I've got some scratch-offs here. Can I scratch them? The player recalled. The man's mother told him to go ahead, take the tickets home
Starting point is 01:07:21 with the understanding they would split the winnings um it turned out a five dollar holiday luck doubler was a fifty thousand dollar winner it's interesting that's chat gbt could be the man kept his agreement and split the prize money with his mother so she'll actually end up oh no so he's he said he his share will go towards saving for a house and paying off debts, including money he owes his mother. So she'll actually end up getting more, he said.
Starting point is 01:07:48 Doesn't it, like, expire though? Like, every year or something to claim it? I don't know. Well,
Starting point is 01:07:52 clearly not. I don't know. I don't know. Why did you call him a player? Because that's what he says. Because he's a shark. Also, he...
Starting point is 01:07:59 No, because he was a scratch card player, wasn't he? He's a lottery player. So he's claiming... He's claiming that because he found them he's entitled to the money
Starting point is 01:08:08 even though they're his mum's scratch cards no he he said he was going to go and take them back scratch them all off and if there's any winnings they'll split them
Starting point is 01:08:16 oh I see but he owes his mum money so could be true could be true which one do you want to what does time bending mean yeah that's an interesting
Starting point is 01:08:23 kind of phrase travellers at the Denver International Airport were left baffled Could be true. Which one, John? What does time bending mean? Yeah, that's an interesting kind of phrase. Travellers at the Denver International Airport were left baffled on Monday morning. This is from April the 7th, 2025. So it was like... Yesterday.
Starting point is 01:08:34 Yeah, yesterday. Silver-coloured fog rolled onto the tarmac causing massive delays and confusing both pilots and ground crews. This is... that's bullshit. Not like, I mean, it doesn't mean like,
Starting point is 01:08:53 according to eyewitness, it's bullshit. Now, according to eyewitness, what? No, because it's a long article. I'm trying to get the best bits. Oh, interesting. Yeah, it could be. Airport officials initially attributed the phenomenon to an unusual atmospheric event,
Starting point is 01:09:13 but they later walked back on their statement after local meteorologists confirmed no weather patterns in the area could explain the fog's sudden appearance or metallic sheen. So they went back in time? What? No.
Starting point is 01:09:24 I imagine time bending just implies that there was no prerequisite for there to be fog, and then the fog just appeared. Yeah, basically. And the FAA... You know, we get a weather app that says, oh, this all this shit's going to happen. The headline is fog appears. Yeah, out of nowhere.
Starting point is 01:09:44 But it's not... No, but it's not every morning. No, but it's not normal fog. Open the window. Oh, it's foggy. What does it mean? How is this a news thing? It's not on the app.
Starting point is 01:09:55 That is not a thing. Oh, sorry, I've missed a key part. I think you have, yeah. According to eyewitness accounts, several passengers claimed to have experienced missing time. Again, this is America. With some stating their watches and phones fell behind by as much as 45 minutes while sitting on the planes. So that's the bit I missed.
Starting point is 01:10:15 Could that be magnetic something there? I don't know. So that's where the time bending fog comes on. The FAA has launched an investigation, but so far refused to comment publicly. How do they even investigate that? Investigate fog. So basically, I think,
Starting point is 01:10:30 long story short is, a weird fog appeared with no predictions or whatever, in Denver, and people on the planes ready to go, had to be delayed because of it. And then they've experienced their phones and watches going back in time I know it's possible at least
Starting point is 01:10:48 I think that might be I think that's too weird like too like I think that's real okay and then the final one was final one was
Starting point is 01:10:57 oh the Bulgarian football club they gave a what team they are called Arda Kazali if we had better knowledge we should know that true or not I don't I don't think What team? They are called Arda Kazali. If we had better knowledge, we should know that.
Starting point is 01:11:07 True or not? I don't. Are they in the top division? I don't think so. A Bulgarian football club have apologised for holding a minute's silence for a former player who's still alive. Arda Kazali, which is located in the southern Bulgarian town of Kazali. I'm probably saying that wrong. And playing the country's top division.
Starting point is 01:11:25 Held the minute silence in honour of Petko Ganchev before Sunday's game against Levski Sofia. Okay. Both teams lined up near the centre circle, blah, blah, blah, bowing their heads to mourn Ganchev. Before the match was over, Arda posted on their Facebook page saying they'd received the wrong information
Starting point is 01:11:42 that Ganchev was in fact alive. I just feel like that could be right. I think the first one is fair. Yeah, I agree. I think this might be the most blaringly obvious one we've had so far. And that was the lottery ticket. Yeah. Indeed.
Starting point is 01:11:54 I think there's holes in that story compared to the others, which appears to be a little... And you think it would have expired, so it's not applicable? It's more like the way in which Tom read it. It's as if he's like... Oh, you don't like the word player.
Starting point is 01:12:06 I think when he's... It's also when he reads it, he reads the difference to the other two as if he's scanning through for any... He's like... I don't know,
Starting point is 01:12:12 he emphasises words more on the first one. I feel like the second one actually was an article because he tried to summarise it for us. Yeah, I agree, Ken. Whereas the first...
Starting point is 01:12:21 I'm looking at his micro-expressions mainly. And Sophia might have played... And do you know what? Now he's got no beard, it's very'm looking at his micro-expressions mainly. And Sofia might have played... And do you know what? Now he's got no beard, it's very easy to read his micro-expressions. You know what, lads? Should we just lock in the first one?
Starting point is 01:12:32 I think it's the first one, Beast Mode time. Beast Mode lock in. What do you think? I'll agree with you. I'll agree with you. But do you agree? What was the first one? I don't have any standout feelings
Starting point is 01:12:41 towards A, B or C though. Do you know what I mean? So I'm very neutral in today. I feel very strong about the first one being fake. I don't like the word player though, even though he picked up on it. Play is a bit...
Starting point is 01:12:53 That seems like a robot created... That's like he forgot to read that story through. No one who plays the lottery a player of the lottery. Yeah, yeah. The player admitted... That is fake.
Starting point is 01:13:02 The player... Are we guessing the real or fake headline? Fake. Lock it in. Lou, Lou. Lock it Yeah, yeah. The player admitted. That is fake. The player. Are we guessing the real or fake headline? Fake. Lock it in. Lou, Lou. Lock it in, son.
Starting point is 01:13:10 Can you stop doing that? That is crazy, by the way. Lock it in. If they did have a minute of silence for a guy, it's still alive. Are you locking it in? Are you agreeing?
Starting point is 01:13:18 Yeah, yeah. A. Okay, so the football one is true. Fuck me, man. It always comes down to the last two. Well, yeah, I'm not going to
Starting point is 01:13:26 reveal it straight away by the way you got it wrong right let's move on yeah so the Bulgarian football club that is completely true the time bending
Starting point is 01:13:36 fog is fake no and the lunchie ticket was a real study fuck
Starting point is 01:13:44 no way that's fake that's not real and there's a photo of them together with it And the lottery ticket was a real study. Fuck. No way that's fake. That's not real. And there's a photo of them together with it. The Maryland lottery, 50,000. But what about the emphasis and the micro-expressions? I applied you like a fiddle. Wait, hang on a second. How is time bending fog?
Starting point is 01:13:59 That makes sense. Lads, we're actually idiots. Somehow again. Obviously time bending fog was fake. Somehow again. Oh, we're fucking idiots. again obviously time bending fog was fake somehow again oh we're fucking idiots do you know what all of us are
Starting point is 01:14:08 because somehow fog doesn't appear meteorologists would tell us how the fog appeared somehow we have just said a mind bending time bending fog is true
Starting point is 01:14:17 yet someone finding an old scratch card is fake yeah we fucked that it's so fucking obvious you're an idiot though don't worry mate
Starting point is 01:14:24 it's season two Said the watches went back in time. Can we just say can we just rewind five minutes by the way where these two? Confidently said that's definitely fake big lottery ticket. I Can't believe how fucking stupid we are we I don't care. He doesn't care. Look at him at least I didn't I didn't have He doesn't care Look at him At least I didn't have a Got feeling this time That's the issue Reeve Isn't it
