Starting point is 00:00:00 Okay, let's try and harmonize this shit. Money, money, money. Just like honey. This is shit. I'll be spinning their graves. Bloody Swedes. Are you going to see Mamma Mia, too? Mamma Mia, too.
Starting point is 00:00:15 Here we go again. Here we go again. Oh, God, no. I hate musicals. I can't stand. I would have been like that a month ago. But I think recently, maybe it's because I'm in such a bad place emotionally. I'm like
Starting point is 00:00:30 I want to see I want to go back and watch the first Abba and watch the next one Have you seen the first Mamma Mia? No, sorry Mamma Mia I have no one
Starting point is 00:00:37 It was on For a while there was on TV everywhere Man My mother and sister Never stopped watching it When he came out Like I fucking hate it
Starting point is 00:00:46 It does my head in I hate Abba I'm sorry Really? I hate them They fucking just Ugh It's annoying
Starting point is 00:00:51 It's just And you know what Them as a band We're actually A very good Pop group But just because Of how
Starting point is 00:00:58 much it's been played in my house and I just yeah it just does my head in and especially fucking what do you call her merrill street dancing and singing and she's just like such a a fake fake person like you know I just know she does my head in and the whole concept of singing and dancing I hate it I'm sorry I'm a horrible cynical person everybody the world is beautiful I'm a piece of shit all right is that what you wanted Brian you're happy now wow your question, no, I'm not going to say the new mum of me. I don't know where to go from me. It was a random question I asked you. I thought
Starting point is 00:01:34 you'd say yes and then move on. Well, there you go. You got monologue. This is like spoken word poetry. And I will not back down. Hey, for Abba. Be for bad. Be for bad again. And Abba for Abba. Or whatever. There you go. No.
Starting point is 00:01:52 I will not be saying it. Well, I'm going to see it. I'm going to bring my girl. And I'm sorry Tony Merrill street fans, but she is very fake. Don't get me wrong. How? An incredibly talented actress, but like, she's just like, and you know what, this isn't even exclusive to her. This is
Starting point is 00:02:08 just Hollywood hypocrisy in general, where they all like, Harvey Weinstein was such a monster, but like they all knew, they all knew, she knew. She has been like Hollywood royalty since the 70s. She knows what's going on. Like, you know, if you live in that
Starting point is 00:02:24 disturbing place for so long, you know how it works like. Did she play Margaret Thatcher? No, that was Helen Mirren, I believe. No, and she did. It was Merrill Street. Do you see that film?
Starting point is 00:02:34 Iron Lady. No. Oh, it's so annoying because I feel like the director wants to make a ghost movie. They were like, you know, you got to make a catcher and it's like,
Starting point is 00:02:41 no, I want to make a ghost movie. And then the ghost of Thatcher? No, but he's someone to make a spooky movie and they're like, no, it's like, okay, how about she's got Alzheimer's, right? So the plot of the film is, it starts up with her with Alzheimer's and it cuts back to her, like,
Starting point is 00:02:53 becoming the best prime minister ever, if you ask me. But, um, better in that bloody Theresa May Okay, so it's her new the Falklands and all that Yeah, yeah, yeah But keeps coming back to fucking her
Starting point is 00:03:05 Being all Alzheimer's E in her house Like being all Alzheimer's E Yeah, yeah Okay And her husband's Jim Broadbent But spoiler to her husband's dead All right But she keeps seeing them all right
Starting point is 00:03:16 But they play it like Just so much like Oh we're out You're husbands Yeah She's like I'm overhealing Magr And she comes over here And she's not in the mirror
Starting point is 00:03:27 Her reflection is in the mirror like, oh, what? Maybe that's just people in her cabinet, fuck another. Where are you, dear? Over here, Margaret. You bloody twat. Oh, the IRA.
Starting point is 00:03:39 They just, they went to give him hundred strikes, help me. Oh, she's dead. I forget what IRA stands for. Anyway, yeah. What was all on? Yeah, so it was annoying because that,
Starting point is 00:03:51 because I genuinely wanted, she was good, she was good in the film, though, I know you hate her and you're starting a campaign. A real grand. grassroots campaign. Yeah, yeah. No, look, I just, yeah, she just kind of...
Starting point is 00:04:02 She's bloody new about Weinstein. She just annoys me. She's just as bad. I don't care. Yeah, it's unfair to single her out because obviously all of them knew about it. It's just hypocrisy, but she was a real sort of pillar
Starting point is 00:04:16 speaking out against someone. It was just like, you're a little bit fake, but whatever. Incredibly talented with Akras. Don't get me wrong. We went on a real Mel Street thing there. I forgot what we were going to talk about. Have a...
Starting point is 00:04:27 You asked me about Abba. Yeah. Look, I like Abba, right? Okay, that's all right. My mother's obsessed. My mother, like... Same. They did not just rack your head, though, just all, it always been played and stuff.
Starting point is 00:04:36 Well, she's also, I'll tell you, Johnny Cash, not Johnny Cash, Neil Diamond. Can't stand him, because she loves Neil Diamond. She plays Neil Diamond more than Abel. He wrecks my head as well. Yeah, sweet. I'm just a hateful, cynical, asshole. That's my problem. Why don't you laugh me, brother?
Starting point is 00:04:50 I thought we're rebelling against her parents, but in the worst in the most, like, benignly impossible. Well, I don't like Abba. Take that mother. with your letter jacket I did I was very like I had like green spiky hair

Starting point is 00:05:54 There's one bit where he's talking is doing an interview and I forget who he said someone's like with a 14 year old girl and he was just like I couldn't believe a 14 year old girl
Starting point is 00:06:02 I couldn't believe it even though he's American he's America bloody hell oh it's clean the chimney yeah chuffe an hell you'll never believe
Starting point is 00:06:12 what's going on it's only a geeky pop we need more English vices than not you doing black vices I promise no racial hatred I'm not a racist but just you know
Starting point is 00:06:22 like people do Irish accents all the time and we don't get offended. You know what I mean? Like, it's just a bit of a double standard. And English is fun to do. Yeah, it is. Oh, bloody else.
Starting point is 00:06:32 Plus, nobody can really feel bad for the English. They're an imperialist nightmare. Empire. Hear that Tatcher. Ooh, what's going on? Rolling in her Alzheimer's-Z-grade. What's in the, what's in the Empire? Where's the Falcons?
Starting point is 00:06:45 Where's my husband? Hello? Jim Broadbent. The miners now. Anyway, I was saying, yeah, so like, he's like, I couldn't believe with a 14-year-old girl. But then next thing I knew I met her friend, next thing I know I'm fucking a 14-year-old girl.
Starting point is 00:07:01 Man, but like there's so much, like all of those 70s rock bands, like Zeppelin, fucking Jimmy Page, written guitarists and Led Zeppelin, he had a groupie who was 14 years old, like it was his girlfriend. He was like late 20s, early 30s at the time, and she tried to run away, and he kidnapped her and kept her hostage in a hotel room.
Starting point is 00:07:20 Like, so much fucked up shit, man. He was a man, I was punk, I suppose. yeah well they were more like heavy metal i guess but yeah punk was just it's just an insane time and just people were or tuckover sorry from like the free love generation of the 60s you know reality kicked in and everyone was like life of shit that's all do drugs and self-harm they're all wearing swat stickers and stuff like yeah yeah it's a real i want to bring that back in the irish comedy scene a bit what the swastikas yeah look at me yeah next time i'm doing the battle to see the first pump
Starting point is 00:07:55 just take your dick out they used to like piss each on each other and spit on each other and stuff there's a great story about
Starting point is 00:08:00 um it's a Jim Morrison I can't lie about he yeah he got done for taking his dick out on stage
Starting point is 00:08:07 also like I think I heard somewhere he was just drinking and he just take his dick out the piss he wouldn't
Starting point is 00:08:12 go to bat room he's just like piss at the at the bar yeah but there was so many fans around me take his dick
Starting point is 00:08:17 out he'd be like get away are you serious why he was piss get away piss in my mouth Jim
Starting point is 00:08:23 All right, Brian. Can you help my comedy career? It was a crazy time. I want to get any more punk. Man, I was obsessed with punk. Like, I, you know, I can tell you, like, well, I can't. Give me some bands, this is our weekly pick. Okay, well, like, mainstream punk bands, I guess, just by how big they are.
Starting point is 00:08:45 Like Black Flag. Black Flag are great. Like, they were, like, hardcore punk. It's sort of like the godfathers of punk, you go Iggy and the Stooges and the Ramones in New York and then the pistols and the clash in England and then those are like the real pillar bands that really like kickstarted at all and then you get bands like the damned and uh who's a great irish stiff little fingers they were great they're northern irish oh that makes it northern iron imagine some good punk out there yeah because of the troubles and stuff like uh yeah like the
Starting point is 00:09:16 stiff old fingers have a song called alternative ulster that like just talks about you know not affiliate yourself with any political ideology in Northern Ireland we should just like try to get along there's sort of an upbeat message behind it all but yeah I love punk music because sort of growing up in rural Ireland
Starting point is 00:09:33 I felt very alienated so that's what punk is it's music for the alienated disenfranchised you know I was in a punk band for years I was a drummer and stuff you say you're playing drum and speed and stuff oh yeah I used to do speed and methadrone and then go do gigs and all yeah I was very very
Starting point is 00:09:51 heavy into drugs when I was younger. I'm not as much now. What what happened was I could never play drums when I was drunk but I'd always get drunk so I'd do a few bumps just to like sharpen up and then I'd be a bit more coordinated and stuff. Yeah, yeah. That's great. You were like you could have been Sid Vicious.
Starting point is 00:10:06 Yeah, he's like a nine girlfriend. Yeah, well Sid Vicious, he couldn't even really play bass, he was just more there for image. It's funny, like, was it Gary Oldman played him? Yeah. And Gary Oldman Oldman probably learned how to play guitar, which is more than fucking Sid Vicious. Yeah, yeah, true. Do you ever see that film?
Starting point is 00:10:21 I've never actually seen it, no. It's good, it's good. You're one playing Nancy's fucking brilliant. Like, Seed! Seed! We gotta get to the Metadone Clinic! Seed! She's like, well... She was from New York as well.
Starting point is 00:10:31 Yeah, yeah. That's your New York accent. Get over there! All you hear. Where's America? Seed! That's not the American, do it? Seed!
Starting point is 00:10:41 That sounds like Spanish. Seed! I'm not... I'm not... I'm not... I'm not... P... Come to the Metiton Clinic, Signor.
Starting point is 00:10:48 Yeah. Or, there I go again. it's the catma racist I just again people do impersonate the Irish all the time I think it's endearing in a way yeah it's just I like doing
Starting point is 00:11:00 funny voices and accents because I loved like Robin Williams and Jim Kerry growing up and like they're just like very like stream of consciousness just like a pinball machine just do do do do do do just coming out with random shit I just enjoy doing that like there's no race or hateful
Starting point is 00:11:15 I think don't anyone stop you that's all I won't right's for whites it's all I'm saying I'm just saying Farage He knows why he's talking He's got some points Oh no of course not
Starting point is 00:11:27 No he's a cunt Yeah he's a piece of shit Moving on Yeah we don't want to speak Like this is England There's the fucking line boys See I do
Starting point is 00:11:40 I just like doing accents That's all I just like enjoy it Okay I'll tell you I'll ask you another little personal question now That band stuff is good though I like that
Starting point is 00:11:47 Oh yeah I don't know about you much I've really really missed out and not been in a band. My former life is a musician, yeah. I feel like that would probably help you for the stand-up. Definitely because I was a drummer in a punk band, but I was also a front man for a metal band, so I do have experience of being on stage.
Starting point is 00:12:03 When I was on stage, especially, even with both bands, because when I was drumming, I would sing along as well, Mac and vocal, so I always had a microphone. And in between songs, setting up and stuff, because I didn't have the tune guitars around, and I'd just sat there. I'd crack a few jokes and do a bit of crowdwork. So that's where I started my comedy
Starting point is 00:12:21 And I really love that More often, not people will come up to me after a gig And just like, yeah, you're an alright drummer But you're really funny Do you know what I mean? Like I was never a particularly talented musician For an experience now, a lot of musicians are not funny And the preamble for the music is very awkward
Starting point is 00:12:39 Yeah, yeah You ever see Bob Dylan tried to interact with people Yeah, yeah Usually find the more talented the musician The weirder and more like hard to do deal with people they are yeah no more like this guy all right in the head whereas i was never a talented musician so i could be a comedian hooray so like a talk i want could you actually before i ask you a personal question could you ask us um tell us the names of your bands okay well the punk band i was
Starting point is 00:13:04 in was called sketch uh but we had some we went through a lot of name changes over the years we were initially called hello i'm a truck and then we were called the torture house effect and then it eventually we were called sketch and then the metal band i was in our first name was called hang the happy and then it was between that or stabbed the holy but we eventually settled on a real metal name we were called afflictions of a massacre uh but yeah we were just you know little nerdy white boys trying to be hardcore metalheads you know of course please enjoy my water we're drinking war now just again inside you want to be a good rockin roll i don't know i'm off the stuff uh yeah go and give us just the infamines for me thank you but yeah no i loved
Starting point is 00:13:43 i loved being a band and stuff but i think it was never my destiny to be a musician i think I'm more geared towards comedy just like on a... It's more natural to me if you know what I mean. I think I'd be a good front man. Yeah, you probably would be, yeah. You'd be like Ian Curtis.
Starting point is 00:13:58 No, I wouldn't. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Hopefully end up like Ian Curris. He was 23 when he died. Oh, really? Oh, I got a lot of time. I got...
Starting point is 00:14:06 No, I got plenty of time. I got to go to the old rope store. Okay, I'll ask you a question then. I'm going to ask you about how did you learn to drive? What was that like learning to drive? That's like something everyone's done. Yeah, I was,
Starting point is 00:14:18 very late learning to drive I didn't get my license till I was 24 I did my first driving license when I was 17 but I always would just like do it for a little while and then come back to it you know what I mean it was a very long and intermittent process but like I was fairly because I grew up in a farm much like you
Starting point is 00:14:34 so you probably just were used to like being on tractors and stuff and yeah it wasn't a particularly difficult thing for me learned to drive I did it relatively you know took a while but yeah you get first attempt did you what you mean oh no sorry second attempt yeah same of me, yeah. I think it's the nerves
Starting point is 00:14:50 more than anything. Oh, absolutely. And I failed miserably the first time, like, really bad. But they say statistically people who pass on their second go or the safest drivers. Yeah, because they've learned a bit more. Yeah. I think it's better the way you to, like, fail, to be like, I got, like, really try harder. Where I was, like, so
Starting point is 00:15:06 close. Oh, really? I was like, oh, what the fuck's even the point to trying, you know? Oh, shit, right? Yeah, like, really, it's more, it's, like, real dumb stuff. Like, there was no major instance of, like, that I fucked up. It's, like, just little things, like, looking. Yeah, looking in mirrors and like signal doing the stuff that you don't do in real life
Starting point is 00:15:21 you know because you're too busy drinking fucking vodka rolling in a choice you're driving with old Jack Daniels my friend Jack Daniels yeah Jack Diles is piss man
Starting point is 00:15:34 And the captain was there as well Mr Morgan That's Captain to you It's been so long since it drank I've forgotten what they all taste like Jack Daniels and Captain Morgan Was he drinking it last night actually Captain Morgan
Starting point is 00:15:46 I'll stop bragging I was alone, Brian I was on the brag about Just watching footage of me doing Stans Like BoJack Horse I was just watching old episodes God, that was great
Starting point is 00:16:00 Oh fuck Yeah I think I got a second time My dad was obsessed at me Driving because he wanted me to bring him Back and forth to the Pope Oh really? Yeah So yeah I remember like he
Starting point is 00:16:13 He went mental at me once Because like I was 14 or something like that like too old to drive in a road and he's like come on you're old enough to drive yeah yeah i like a nerd is like i don't have a license i don't think i should be driving on he's like come on and i was like no it's like you can't rely on you at all yeah my dad is very much like that and then like two days later he's very past aggressive like oh i'd ask you but it wouldn't help me would you like that kind of yeah my dad was like that as well i was a constant disappointment to him he was a real manly man you know when i was 10 years old he took me to a pub
Starting point is 00:16:45 on New Year's Eve's like, I'm going to ring in the New Year with my son. I was like I am 10 years old. I should not be here. I'm scared. I was scared. Yeah, we had to walk to the pub in the pitch black dark and he was just like muttering the whole idea. It's like, oh, this is definitely a memory.
Starting point is 00:17:03 Like, as I was walking to the pub, I was thinking, yep, this will leave a scar. I think it all the time. Yeah, my dad tried to teach me to drive at first and like, literally two, after two lessons, like, this can't work. Yeah. This can't work. If you go mental at me, because, like, I'm not doing the handbrake in the right, like, of the hole in it the right way.
Starting point is 00:17:20 Like, so small. Like, I got this nice guy. I forget his name now. He used to drive trucks. He's a bit of character, you know? Like, I respected him. I wasn't impress him. He taught you how to drive?
Starting point is 00:17:28 Yeah, yeah. Well, we did lessons. Like, well, there's some fucking, like... Just some random guy? Oh, I get in the car. Teach my son. I've been drive, so... Well, I can't drive myself.
Starting point is 00:17:37 I don't care. You got the look. I was going to ask you as well, have you been reading much? No, actually. Yeah, really haven't. been reading much. Man, there's a few books that I want to read. I want to read. I got Blang Boy's book there and I still haven't read. Oh, I read that, yeah. And I tell you, I even, I remember I've been really, because I've read some of David Foster Wallace's stuff, but I have never read
Starting point is 00:17:59 Infinite Jest. I have on my Kindle. Have you started it even? I read the first page. Okay. I do want to, because I think probably seem as you, I'm big into Dave Foster Wallace from the film. Yeah, the end of the tour. Yeah, that was great. Oh, like, forgotten about it, I feel like, it's usually got more... Jason Siegel did a really good job, I feel like he... I want to read that, but that's like really like, you have to really commit to that, you know? Yeah, that's, you know, it's like a thousand pages long, but even they say the way it's written, like you have to be referring to the, like, the index or whatever, the footnotes and stuff. That's one thing I've always sort of felt bad about as well, that I don't read as much as I should, because I really enjoy reading.
Starting point is 00:18:38 Like, when you get into a good book, like, it's pleasant thing, you know, you feel it's more connected or something. It's good for the mind. Yeah, absolutely, yeah. Yeah, we're all, like, our generation now, just so much distractions. So much distractions, and it's, like, just constant, just distract me. You can literally watch pornography in a tractor. Yeah. And I'd have.
Starting point is 00:18:55 Have you done that? No, I know. Oh. Your mouth says no, but your eyes say yes. I don't think, actually, I don't think, I wouldn't see the point of it. Like, there's no. You don't have time you watching porn in the tractor. No.
Starting point is 00:19:05 Have you ever had a wank while driving? A car or tractor? A car. Neither. No. Well, then what did you ask? I don't know I specified. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:19:14 I've never done that either, but apparently it's more common than you think. I've got, like, blue here on the show. I've got, like, blow jobs with driving. Have you, yeah? Yeah. Yeah, you're welcome. I didn't have any money. I was like, well, it's it, Brian James fuck with her.
Starting point is 00:19:27 No, I've never had that either. Does it impair your ability to drive? When you're doing the pedals, do you not be, like, kneeing her in the face? No. No? Okay. No. She knew what she used.
Starting point is 00:19:38 I was she very skilled. Actually, remember that girl? I don't know how much I can say about this, because I like the girl. like we're still on good terms kind of but I remember she was like oh yeah I sucked off a taxi driver a week before us Jesus
Starting point is 00:19:49 so she had experience like fake taxi dot com this is real no I'm trying to know how did we get to there from reading have you read a good book yeah I got blown
Starting point is 00:19:59 by this chick while I was driving speaking of David Foster Waters he killed himself didn't he was he did yeah suicide got this girl suck him oh it got me
Starting point is 00:20:11 dick got me dick got me doc Well, I was going to bring up, because I was, I'm reading Carrie at the moment, Stephen King's first novel. Yeah. So I'm reading that. So I was going to segue into that and talk about. Well, that was a bit weird. Oh, no, what were you going to talk about?
Starting point is 00:20:25 I just like, Carrie. It's a good book. Yeah, yeah. You've seen the films or anything? I haven't seen the film. I've never read the book. No, I'm an uncultured swine. I've read a lot of Stephen King.
Starting point is 00:20:33 I actually met Stephen King's son in Edinburgh last year. Was that right? Joe Hill, do you know him? Is he a comedian? No, but writer as well. The Fringe also is writers, James. Yeah, well, okay. I thought that you'd just be hanging out with comedians, but anyway.
Starting point is 00:20:46 I saw him, and I was really, like, weird to him. I get this with a big of people. I was just like, you're Joe Hill. And this is on the street. He's like, yeah? I was trying to give a book they'd written, and just one short story wrote I really loved, but I couldn't think of this. I was like, I love your shorts, uh, I just love it all. I wanted to say, it was like, yeah, okay, well, I got to go.
Starting point is 00:21:09 Thanks, man. Yeah. Oh, Bladie L, got to go. That's how he talks about, because he's Americans. I've got a knock on brown I'll see you later bloody yikes I really like Stephen King
Starting point is 00:21:21 like he's good One thing I was thought weird is you know about an it He's got the you know it You know in the book There's an orgy with the children You know it well It's the only part I read Over and over
Starting point is 00:21:36 It's like that I've got tape Clowed that pages he put up the wall I was in a sewer as well Just reading it I also bit off of Charlotte's arm Come on down Georgie We all flop down there
Starting point is 00:21:50 I've always thought it's interesting Because they ask him about that scene Every now and again Especially the film came out of dressing Like why did you Why did the kids fuck each other Stephen? And he was like
Starting point is 00:21:59 Well I think it's very interesting That people have problems With the child sex scene But not all the violence In the novel I think that's a very interesting Reflection on our society No fuck you
Starting point is 00:22:08 Why are you talking about you? Yeah like Don't write Fair enough write a book about, write a scene with kids fuck you, I have no problem with that. But don't treat us like the weirdos down like, well, you've got wrong with that, do you?
Starting point is 00:22:20 Oh, well, I get, I'm holding a mirror society. Well, like, it wasn't the argument for it that it's their way of losing their innocence, so they're not susceptible to the fear of the client. Actually, in the context, it makes sense. But it's interesting that he wouldn't just push that argument as opposed
Starting point is 00:22:36 to go, you know, get all weird and defensive about it, like, I mean, you're thinking I'm a freak, do you? I don't know why he sounds like that. It turns to a bat. Oh my God. Do you ever hear of Rage? No.
Starting point is 00:22:51 It's a book he wrote under the non-de-plume of Richard Bachman. He started writing as a different name for a while. Oh, pseudonym? Yeah, pseudonym, yeah. See, he got into a thing of like, are my book's good or I'm just popular, you know? Oh. So he started writing under different name, Richard Bachman. And he wrote this book, I think Misery was originally written under Richard Bachman.
Starting point is 00:23:09 Okay. But he wrote this book called Ray. was about school shooting from the point of view of the school shooter I think there was multiple cases of kids who shot up schools
Starting point is 00:23:18 that had read the book or had it at least in their house and he was like I don't like this so oh I should have wrote
Starting point is 00:23:26 a child sexing the book very interesting that you're focused on that sorry I was going to say before you say anything he actually requested go out of print
Starting point is 00:23:35 really yeah because of the prevalence of school shooting yeah well like you can blame culture and the influence of media violence. Maybe you can make that argument to an extent, but the overriding
Starting point is 00:23:46 issue is always going to be the availability of guns. Like, you know what I mean? Like, I watched, I was bullied in school. I hated people in school. I was actually obsessed with Columbine. I still kind of am. But, you know, so you could say that that kind of, you know, media violence had an infect on me,
Starting point is 00:24:03 but I never would shot up a school, but didn't have the availability of guns that there is in America. Yeah. That literally kids can buy guns. Like, you know, it's shotgun. You can't do much damage with shotgun. Yeah, we had a bolt-action rifle. Yeah. And, like, you couldn't do much with that.
Starting point is 00:24:15 Like, hey, don't run away. I've got to reload. I'm just on my shit aim, as you know. That was actually a pretty good aim. I used to go shooting with my dad. It's the only thing that we could ever bond over. Guns. I didn't enjoy doing it.
Starting point is 00:24:28 Like, I hated shooting because he made me shoot rabbits and stuff, and I didn't like doing that. But it was the only time I used, that's, he'd only ever spend time with me shooting. That's the only time I could ever impress him, you know what I mean? Because I was a good shot. Look, Dad. I made the soul disappear. I killed an animal, father.
Starting point is 00:24:45 Do you love me now? Don't move, Maddie. You'll only make a mess. You'll only make Daddy's Willie Hodder. Oh, no. Nothing like that ever happened. My father was a good man. I'm a piece of shit.
Starting point is 00:25:02 It goes harder than that gun. And also shot. Talk about blowing your little. me. Oh, well, Stephen King. Yeah, anyway,
Starting point is 00:25:13 Carrie. He keep asking about literature and I keep taking it to the most depraved places. Have you read Proust? Anyway,
Starting point is 00:25:22 Carrey. It's interesting Carrie, like, because it's, I didn't expect to be so interesting, like the whole teenage girl
Starting point is 00:25:28 aspect of it. Because it's like an older guy. Yeah. He's in like, it's 20s, 30, something he's writing it,
Starting point is 00:25:33 like, but you're really invest in it and, like, even the stuff, because the other way the story, like, Dave,
Starting point is 00:25:38 throw the stuff at her, She has her first period. Yeah, yeah. And they throw stuff at her. So, like, pig's blood and stuff. Well, that's later on, like, they throw, like, tampons at her first, like, plug it up, plug it up. Jesus. And then, like, there's a whole thing about the school, like, the gym teacher, like, kind of, like,
Starting point is 00:25:53 tries to ban one of the girls who goes to prom, because she started, and then the liar, her dad's a liar. So, like, for a bit of the book, it's all about the politics of the school. Yeah, yeah. We're going to ban her. Well, we'll counter Sue. Well, we'll do this. And that's really interesting that you forget about the whole she's fucking magic aspect of it. Oh, God, yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:08 She's, like, supernatural. Yeah. Yeah. You forget about that. But I really, and you really relate to Carrie, because I kind of think about, like, I always think that when I go to a comedy club, there's a bit of me thinking, like, you're going to, like, just dump bucket blood on my head. Well, there is.
Starting point is 00:26:21 And it just, like, clog it up. On the comedy scene, I think, you know, I find this, I'm sure you have, especially when you're new, you know, there's so many sort of, there's established comedians and then semi-established comedians, people who are regular in the scene. They form, like, a tight-knit group of friends, camaraderie, whatever. And when you're on the outside looking in, it does sort of have that school dynamic of the popular kids and we're the nerdy kids
Starting point is 00:26:45 and you want to be, you want to belong and you want to fit in. And, you know, so it's, I think, you know, that's, as a comedian, you can identify with that sort of concept. It is. It can be tough. Like, whoa, they love me. You know, but it's all, you know.
Starting point is 00:26:58 Maybe if I had powers, they'd change. If I was magic. Choo-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-too. Well, also, comedians, you know, stereotypically or quite insecure people so you know yeah so a lot I found a lot of his just like in your own head
Starting point is 00:27:13 like he hates me and like they don't even know who you are yeah exactly like I'll leave and that's how it should be well like when you have an encounter with a comedian it's kind of awkward and weird especially if there's someone you really respect and then you go home thinking God I'm such a loser digger and I think I'm a freak they're not people thinking about you
Starting point is 00:27:29 I've had so many instances of that of like I won't say who was one comedian that we'd like I met in Edinburgh one time and I was like oh hi and he was like you know fucking like they're I remember as well these comedians like they're trying to fucking do work or get ready for a show like that's true
Starting point is 00:27:42 like so like all the times it's like I talk to him and he wouldn't look at me yeah he's fucking emcee in a show and he's gotta go up on stage in a minute now but I went up to him's like oh it was really good show he's like oh thanks thanks seems like it's notebook or something like yeah
Starting point is 00:27:55 yeah yeah he's like um he was a try a star company he's like how you enjoy Edinburgh and I was like good I had hummus I just long pause and he was like what I was like, yeah I had to leave the country to try hummus
Starting point is 00:28:10 I mean, haggis and he was like, all right. Oh, did you actually try haggis? I know. I was a lie. I had something that I taught was haggis, turned out it was like something else. Chicken.
Starting point is 00:28:22 KFC. I was thinking, I took like a fucking, just because you're in Scotland. Black pudding or something like that. Yeah, yeah. Well, gee whiz, this what? The big bad world. This is this old haggis hummus thing, is it?
Starting point is 00:28:33 Oh, that cosmopolitan. It's the world. over 30. I feel like we should do one more thing for you go, just like give me something next to it. Yeah. Okay, all right, yeah. I'll ask you a question then, Brian, seeing as you've been kind of asking me.
Starting point is 00:28:47 You are going to Edinburgh very soon. Oh, yeah. I don't know when this is coming out. We might stagger these episodes. But I am going to Edinburgh 4th of August and doing the full run, like, and I can't. I definitely can't wait a little. Yeah, you're doing the full run, full month. Full month, yeah.

Starting point is 00:29:14 This is you sending a friend request to Porig. You won't accept my friend request. No, so yeah, I'm going on with your colleague. Yeah, yeah. I'm going forward on. I can't wait. And you went out in her last year. You didn't have a great time.
Starting point is 00:29:29 No, but that was more of my own. Didn't you get like, Yeah, my car got stolen or something like that. Money got stolen out of my. account and yeah it was a whole big thing well let's talk about you you're you know for anyone who's listened describe edinburgh because i didn't i haven't really experienced it to the same extent you have edinburgh's mad it's very it's very easy to like be overwhelmed by it yeah and i'm lucky this year like i have my own place well like it's not hostile last year last two years i was in hostels and it was just shit and you've
Starting point is 00:29:58 come home late in night yeah and like you're a bit drunk and you're spilling the cab on someone's head and like they're kind of crying a bit because someone doesn't love you so this time in my own place like that'll help but you're fucking you're exhausted all the time like I've done some shows there like I forget to eat a lot as well wish I had that problem
