ACAS powers the world's best podcasts. Here's a show that we recommend.
What begins as a tragic discovery of a female body in a creek unravels a tale of an international
kidnapping, toxic relationships, and a breakthrough that changes everything.
There's only three ways you can enter any environment. One is purposeful, one is accidental,
and the third way is by the hands of another.
Was it an accident or something more sinister?
I'm private investigator Julia Robson,
and this is Troubled Waters,
a Casefile Presents production,
out now wherever you get your podcasts.
Acast helps creators launch, grow,
and monetize their podcasts everywhere.

It's Bud Pod 280.
Who 80 or the pies?
Good.
We did.
We have this month.
I've not, I've not been to Pymaker once, the Edinburgh Institution.
That's a good point. We should say Phil is busy trying to tunnel to the centre of the sun.
It's a dangerous mission, but he's an engineer.
And part of tunneling to the centre of the sun is also being funny, it turns out.
It's like whatever that movie is where they make Bruce Willis do it and all
the miners.
Yes, which you've seen the Ben Affleck director's commentary clip where he's talking with, he's
recounting on the director's commentary or the actor's commentary, him explaining to
Jerry Bruckheimer why the entire film is insane because you just get the films like we mining Armageddon Armageddon
the concept of the film is that mining is so hard that it is easier to teach miners to become
astronauts than it is to teach astronauts to become miners even though your average astronaut
is a former air force fighter pilot a triple PhD in all forms of science and incredibly physically fit. They go no, no. Because it's
still, it's the superiority of blue collar labor.
Well exactly.
Over these fancy NASA nerds.
Yeah, Kamala Harris wasn't like mulling getting an oil rig guy as her vice president, whereas
with Mark Kelly she was like, an astronaut is the ideal.
Yeah. Whereas, that's what's happening now with the sun.
It has to be funny for some reason.
And so Phil is part of a team of comedians
who can't be at the fringe because they're burrowing into the sun.
Right, right.
They have to detonate a really good pun at the sun's core to restart the...
You have to get to the core of the sun and say,
hot enough for you to someone else.
And the sun implodes in a
way that's somehow beneficial to earth. Give me a cheer. If you're a twin son, give me a
cheer. If you're a solo star system, you can hear the solar star systems are happy. Flares are
different. It's Alex Keely. Hello, it's me. It's friend of the pod and fellow podcaster and
gig pigs host gig pegger. And half of half a bud pod has already been on gig pigs.
Phil Wang is seeing Kendrick Lamar and Piano Valley will be on soon.
Ideally, whenever we are able to reanimate the corpse of Warren Zevon.
So we can take you to watch.
You can find a suitably high quality Warren Zevon tribute act.
I'm in. In fact, if you want to know
some funny things Phil has to say about Kendrick Lamar, his
Netflix special is out on the 3rd of September, I believe.
But in order to help Phil, listeners, you know what you have to do.
You have to click remind me on Netflix and that makes the robot like Phil even more.
Yes, yes.
So Alex and I have been living together up here at the Fringe, surviving together.
We're almost done. We've got what, a week left?
We've got a week left. I would say it's the fact. And there's two things I want to say now.
One, please come to my show if you're hearing this before the end of the Fringe.
So ignore the second bit of this if you're going to do that.
The second bit is the final week of the Fringe is very much like the last
45 minutes of Return of the King in that you know sort of the outcome of the situation
and yet it keeps going. Yeah, you know imagine how gutted you'd be if you were one of the Rohan men.
Yeah, yeah. And you could see that the tower of Sauron was crumbling and it was all you were
winning. Yeah. But you're still having to fight the orcs in front of you. Yeah, exactly. Exactly.
You almost want to be like, I know this sounds like a trick, Mr. Orc,
but look behind you.
Yeah.
And the final week in the lull is sort of lower attended.
So it's like that there are these kind of
less vital skirmishes after the obvious ban.
Still a few orcs to be mopped up.
Do you think they were orc POWs?
I don't think that's allowed.
Cause they're like, they're so definitely evil.
We're just gonna murder all of them.
Yeah, I mean, it feels like they're burning them
on big piles.
They are sort of dragging them onto a big pile.
It's like foot and mouth.
Yeah, because also that's one of the bits
when Legolas and Aragorn think that Mary and Pippin
have been killed is when there's bits of Pippin
and Mary's like brooches.
Weird little armor.
And they're like, no, Mary and Pippin brooches on the war crime bonfire that the Rohirrim
have done.
It's like the takeaway should be like, you maybe don't wholesale burn all the bodies
of your enemies.
Our mass grave might have, yeah, That's what they're worried about. Oh man.
Yeah. Well, the end of the fringes like that bit at the end where they constantly saying
goodbye and that brightly lit room and laughing. Brian Logan just coming in with a slightly
sleepy. Sorry. He's the comedy critic. With a long gray beard laughing in a soft frame footage.
Soft focus.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And everyone gets on a boat to go to Soho theater.
Yeah.
Um, do a run there.
Yeah, what's the equivalent of having been
a tokenistic ring bearer like Sam?
You get a solid one fall from a national broadsheet
and you get one Monday at the Soho theater.
Yeah, they test you out for a Monday to see. Yeah, that's it. This is very inside baseball,
so let's make it outside baseball.
Let's make it outside baseball.
I would say if anyone listening is thinking, what's it like to live with Alex? I would
say Alex, you are the king of breakfast. I've never seen a man so dedicated to breakfast
in my life.
I think I remember talking with you and Sarah Barron a couple of years ago. And I think we in that conversation decided I make a large breakfast myself as if I've just
had a one night stand with myself and I'm trying to seduce myself to have further one
night stands with me. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You make breakfast for yourself like an audition,
like a relationship audition. Well, like in a film, it would be the scene where you sort of trying to ostentatiously
show just how eligible this Frenchman is.
And the sort of main female character would be sort of blown away by the level of effort.
And because you do it from what I can tell every day of your life, you can create quite
an elaborate brunch level breakfast pretty quickly.
I think the-
It's like watching someone disassemble a rifle.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I was thinking, I think it's worrying
is I think one of the main cultural references
for like as ornate a breakfast as I do being shown
on screen is the opening titles of the TV show Dexter.
Yes.
So I'm like, my main cipher is a serial killer.
What serial killer or Walter White's son?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm taking that. That's happier go luckier, I think.
Dexter and Walter White's son are your breakfast icons because they're never not having a full
fucking diner experience every day and still somehow relentlessly staying in shape,
which is another thing that you do that's annoying.
Yes.
Because you have this...
Anxiety. somehow relentlessly staying in shape, which is another thing that you do that's annoying. Yes. Because you have this anxiety.
Yeah, my theory is that you're vibrating
at such a fast pace that you seem to be staying still,
like a very powerful mining drill or something.
And that's what's been-
They take me to space in Armageddon.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
If I had to drill to the center of an asteroid,
I would just put you upside down in a hole.
Yeah, just with this, just shoving me into it.
I'd lower you onto the crust of the asteroid and I'd tell you something stressful.
And then we'd be like, we'd give you in.
You remind me of a, you're an inverted version of my old flatmate, Sam.
Shout out to Sam, who I would watch Sam
come home from his job in the evenings and I would watch him cook like a sort of serves three amount
of pasta and dunk an entire glass jar of mascarpone and tomato, like creamy cheesy fucking pasta
sauce on the pasta. Right. And then add in whatever else, peppers or some meat or...
But just that on its own is so much.
And he'd eat all of it.
And he was thin.
Yeah, yeah.
And eventually I said to him,
we joked about it for like months, but eventually I said to him,
I need you to solve this for me.
Will you do me a favor?
Will you download like a food tracker
and just do it for me?
Because I need to know how this is possible.
How are the calories going in and out?
Absolutely.
Did it turn out that he was just a kind of
one meal a day psychopath or?
He wasn't a one meal a day psychopath,
but he basically, he would have like a sort of nothing,
a sort of like a single snack bar amount of calories with a coffee
in the morning. So that's like 150, 200. Then he's having like, you know, 600 boots meal
deal. Okay. You know, like a sandwich that's like 400 crisps, 150. Right, right, right.
That leaves him as a fairly active adult male with 2000 calories just left. So by the time
he gets home,
he has to have like an Olympic row.
Three pastas for me please.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And so it all added up perfectly.
But then I was satisfied.
But then I had kind of ruined the magic of it.
Yeah, I'm, but I would say the,
I think the solution for me is I'm just not a lunch.
I'm not a lunch boy.
No, you're not.
I just have a massive brunch in the morning
and then a colossal meal.
And then particularly the fringe, I'm so like wired for shows. What's the worst? have a massive brunch in the morning and then a colossal meal and then
particularly the fringe I'm so like wired for shows. What's the worst?
Adrenaline powering. Oh yeah yeah the adrenaline is a big part of it. What's
the worst breakfast food? The worst breakfast food? Yeah the one where you
scorn. I just had a full Scottish. I went into tech. I went into...
You had a full Scottish? Oh my god. Yeah, I'm sorry. It's a disrespectful thing to do in a closed space recording environment with someone.
I had your greatest friend, the Scottish breakfast, with your greatest enemy, baked beans.
But I did leave, I'm afraid I left the haggis fully on the plate.
You left the haggis.
Left the haggis.
You don't like it. Mmm, I... the ratios were too... as a piece, the ratios were too meat-based and it wasn't
enough like egg and bread and the haggis would have... it was the least good meat and would
have tipped me over.
Sometimes you need extra bread for the haggis. I like haggis. I'm a huge fan and I only eat
it when I'm up here to preserve its magic.
When I have it, it's alright, but it's... I mean, the, I think when I have my breakfast, it really, there's a couple
of aspects of me that I think we've worked out that I'm like you, but opposite in terms
of, in terms of like you refuse to eat, you don't like to mix items of your food together
where I need to have the exact proportion of the meal on every bite.
I, yeah, I mix them a bit, but you are a proportion boy.
You need it to be like exactly equal parts of every present matter.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, which I think is mad.
Oh, big time.
Yeah.
I understand the compulsion, but the fact that you're including beans makes me want to chop
off my own nose. Yes, it's an astonishing thing to watch.
You're just a man existing almost entirely on breakfast alone.
Outside of the fridge, I do try blueberries and bananas in the, in the, in the, because
it just, it does sort of kill your capacity to function for two hours.
Yeah. I'm amazed that you don't go back to bed.
Yeah. Yeah.
And just fart yourself to death.
I also put on too much hot sauce
and then rivulets of sweat start pouring down.
We have the most mental fucking bottle of hot sauce.
You guys listening must know that sometimes
when you get that bottle of ketchup.
In Kona, the blue Jamaican, four chilies out of five chilies. Oh, it's very hot, but more just the physical mechanism of it. It's like when you get that bottle of ketchup. In Kona, the blue Jamaican, four chilies out of five chilies. Oh, it's very hot, but more just the physical mechanism of it.
It's like when you get a bottle of ketchup
and your options are no ketchup or like a rifle shot.
Yeah. Would you like bacon with your ketchup?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Just like a bowl of soup level of ketchup, just pow!
And it's that, but with the hottest sauce available
in the Scottish market. So your choice is either normal, you know, not spicy breakfast
or hold on to your asshole. Here it comes.
Yeah. And I sweated so much the other day that it felt like in...
It went into your eye.
It went into my eye. I looked like I was crying. I cried harder than any French show I've seen
this year. Every breakfast you look like a guy in a jungle adventure movie who we know is going to die
quite soon. You've got malaria and you're just trying to pilot the boat through various
Amazonian rivers just far enough that...
I know I'm gone but I just want my crew mates to make yeah hunched over a
waterproof map trying to point wordlessly dabbing vigorously with my kerchief yeah yeah yeah but I
like yesterday was so much sweat it was like a um like a sweat dropped onto the back of my neck
from my hair and it was like in a film when someone doesn't realize there's a monster above them
hair and it was like in a film when someone doesn't realize there's a monster above them and it drops from the ceiling.
The blood or saliva.
I was like, he's above me, isn't he?
Like that kind of icky Marvel stuff.
Well speaking of he's above me, isn't he?
We've been doing something which might seem culturally cretinous if you're not at the
Fringe, but if you're at the Fringe for the whole month as a performer, it is very therapeutic
to go to the cinema.
Because when you watch a live show, especially if it's someone you know,
you feel like it's like a tennis match.
You are hitting a ball back, you know, you have to laugh or pay attention or focus.
Whereas in the cinema, they don't know you're there.
The movie's happening anyway.
It's it's crucially all those shows that we're seeing we do enjoy,
but we feel a basic empathetic need
to vocalize that, to like assist our friends
and to make the audience also do the same thing.
And it's a hard balance to strike
because if you try and help too much,
you will hurt the show.
If you sit there going,
I knew someone who would sit and go,
ha, like that, as an attempt to help.
And it was the most sarcastic sounding fucking thing.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Like a seagull.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Ha!
I'm laughing. You should all laugh more.
And it's like, nice. Thank you.
But also everyone around you is now going,
well, I won't laugh at all then.
Yeah. And so we...
I won't laugh at all.
So we went to see Alien Romulus.
Yes.
Because in space, aliens don't need your feedback.
Yeah.
No one can hear you laugh. We saw alien Romulus on different nights on different nights for balance.
You know, all the Edinburgh award judges don't want to come in on the same.
No, it's not the alien roofs it that night.
And it's really unrepresentative.
The alien is a dud night.
It can't kill anyone.
The crew just do really sensible stuff.
Oh, the chest buster usually works at this point. It's a dud night, it can't kill anyone. The crew just do really sensible stuff.
Oh, the chest buster usually works at this point.
But you saw it on like the Friday, I saw it Thursday night at the Edinburgh International
Film Festival and there was a red carpet, it was like Thursday night, there was a video
message from the director.
The alien was there?
Genuinely, a guy and a xenomorph came.
There was a xenomorph on the carpet. Video message from the alien was there genuinely a guy and his animals a guy and his animal came
There was there was there there was a xenomorph on the carpet by the time we got there
I just saw the xenomorph like kind of waving and then like heading back in
Please who you're wearing who you wearing no, no, that's quite enough
Please please we need a little viral contact. Can you please speak to Amelia de Moldenberg on the red carpet?
We need some good stuff.
Lay an egg in my baby.
Flirt with Amelia.
Let's get some layin' egg in my baby.
Holding up their baby so they can be egg laden
by the xenomorph.
I like- Squelching babies.
The xenomorph going down the red carpet like Tom Cruise.
People holding out autograph books.
Like it's- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
The little mouth in the mouth is going black.
That's someone with a pen and it just comes out.
Hanchess, Hanchess, pen.
So what's...
A really hot lady is like, drill on my tits.
He's going, ha ha ha.
Sulfuric acid, she dissolves.
She's delighted to dissolve.
Everyone's so pleased to see the xenomorph and it's wearing a kilt as a kind of pandering thing.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And then it, you know, it says it screeches a bunch of xenomorph language and then you
can see the subtitles come up being like, we always felt like a real connection with
Scotland.
You go set on a spaceship and then you like look up a YouTube video letter and it's saying
the same thing in like Dusseldorf at the like German premiere and
you're like fuck you.
It's making jokes about the kilts.
Does it suit me?
Doing little funny bits.
What's under a xenomorph's kilter?
Yeah, but you're thinking.
What an experience.
You're thinking, you know, the film production company, that's, you know, they've no expenses
spared.
They got a guy in a xenomorph to come to the Edinburgh premiere.
Nope.
I found out from the convener of the festival that it's a guy in sterling who just owns
a xenomorph suit.
And then he emailed, he emailed the film festival to say, I've been waiting for this for my whole. So he just came.
This is my only purpose. Please.
But he was three seats along on the left from me in the film.
As a xenomorph.
Not as a xenomorph, he de-xenomorphed. And then at the end of the film, he was like a
minor celebrity and he had his little suitcase. I'm like, I know that in that suitcase, there's a xenomorph suit.
Yeah, I could steal it. I love that if I'm watching it dressed as a xenomorph.
Yeah. Whenever the xenomorph gets attacked or damaged, you look over like,
yeah, yeah. Or he just like leans over being like, I was Bruce for days after that scene.
It took a hundred takes. He's so disciplined. He's like Fincher.
That's actually not really, it's CGI at the back.
The view out the window.
The practical effects are good, but we had to do CGI.
When he's eating pop, when there's any of them,
well, she actually, because I guess there's animals at all.
Is she eating the popcorn or is the little baby coming out?
And then just like straight into the popcorn,
no little things, just like.
Yeah, yeah, definitely.
Yeah, great, definitely.
Any xenomorphs at yours?
No, no, just the regular film.
Unless they were really undercover.
Well, they could have been on the roof,
they're always on the roof hiding, I wouldn't have seen.
Unless one dribbled on me.
No, I liked it.
I like, but I'm such a, I'm such a slut for the alien franchise. Generally. I just welcome any
addition to the canon, though this was like, this was like alien, kick-talk people. Yeah.
It was, um, it was one guy. I think everyone was one guy. Everyone was 20 to 25 years old.
So it was very much like...
Lots of the scenes.
Garrett Millerick pointed this out.
Excellent comedian friend of the podcast.
You'll see his show at the Fringe as well.
Lots of the scenes were largely the same as scenes in the first three.
All mixed up.
So a bit inside, a bit outside the space station, a
bit with a tunnel, a bit with the lots of iconic scenes basically repeated. And it was
almost as if they sat with the alien intellectual property and said, we need to get the highlights
of all of the original three from whatever before 1991 or whenever the third one came
out. Yeah. Yeah. And package them for Gen Z and Gen Alpha.
Well, it's like chat GBT make me the safest possible.
Like it's a very well made.
Yeah. Yeah.
It's a well-made movie.
You've got to give me like a bit of chest burst
or a bit of face hugger, a bit of like,
and let's just have like, sorry to like,
if you're going to see the film, I presume you've paused.
Pause your podcast. take out your podcast cassette
But you know loads of xenomorphs and in one scene
Yes, yeah, you know, like I don't I'm not used to that many in one scene. Yes. I wasn't sure about that
I thought maybe it detracts the men are slightly tasty loads because it used to just be like there's this one mega queen, but then I guess they were more like
the population cinemas. Well that's a classic, it's like it's such a classic thing in movies,
where like almost in any action film, if you're the worst scenario, if you're a hero in an action
film, is to face one guy. If you're facing 20, you immediately kill all 20 of them with that
bust. That's true, isn't it? If there's one guy, you're like, I might die in this scene. Cause there's one guy.
If there's 20 henchmen with a scar over their eye, you're like, yeah, yeah. One with a scar
over his eye. Uh-oh, he's probably the main one.
I'm getting my wrist broken at the end of this fight. I will live, but there will be,
there will be soul damage.
Yeah. How far are we from, uh being somehow on a Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But if you, if you, if you send 20 John Wicks at me, I'm fine. Somehow
I'm, somehow I'm less scared of it's 20. Yeah. I did. I did. Yeah. I like the movie. John's
Wick. I don't know. John's, John's Wick. I, uh, I did like the movie, but yes, it was
very much like, uh, you know, yo yo, bruv, watch out for that alien.
There was a slight aspect of that.
There was one, and I actually think it's just one actor, because I actually, I actually thought
the actor was fine. I think this particular, there was quite a grumpy, yeah, it's, yeah,
it could have, it could have been good, that character, but I think it was a bit one note.
Yeah, it was a bit irritating, but it was all right. And the other fabulous
cinema experience we've had is Long Legs. I saw Long Legs last night. I snuck to the cinema.
You saw it as it was meant to be seen, on your own and partially spoiled by me.
Though to your credit, having watched it, not really. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Not really. But it was such a like Glen Moore, other friend of the podcast, was heroic when I accidentally
spoiled again, you know, fast forward now, if you haven't seen Long Legs and you would
like to...
Well, we can be vague about it.
Okay, well, I say something about the end.
I like say very matter of factly like, well, that thing isn't possible, but the that thing
I said is quite
a revealing element of the end of the film.
Yeah. It deprives one particular thing of a bit of shock. But otherwise it wasn't plot
critical, really. I don't think.
I think when it happened, you knew, oh, this is the best.
Oh, this is Alex's bit.
And was I right? You can't do that. You can't be doing that. Anyway, there's 50.
I recommend going to watch Long Legs if what you would like is a kind of occult version
of Silence of the Lambs with Nicolas Cage doing very silly voice.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It was quite fun.
If you want Silence of the Lambs, but hate hereditary, I would leave Long Legs at the
two thirds mark and you've seen a great film. That's a fair, yeah, that's a good review.
Because it becomes a different film in the third part.
Yes, it's spooky Silence of the Lambs.
It's not science FBI solving it through fingerprints.
It's kind of, it's a cult, which I wasn't expecting.
I'd heard people say, oh, I don't like it
because it's a cult.
I thought it would be like crime thriller.
But in fairness, I thought that would be like
one of those shit films where they go,
right at the end they go at right
at the end they go, it was a ghost.
Okay, bye.
Which I do fucking hate.
But no, to be fair to it, it was, it was a cult and spooky from the beginning.
Yes, exactly.
It made no bones about it.
I didn't like the beginning, you know, the beginning bit of Nicolas Cage.
It didn't scream to me like this is going to be DNA evidence that gets this guy. Yeah, when he's going...
Dressed in this insane makeup.
Here you go. I don't think this guy's fingerprints are going to be his big weakness.
No, just one thing, Nicholas. Stop doing the weird spooky stuff.
Your alibi seems to be this.
So you have a very good lawyer.
I know that you've got like an insane wig and like full lumpy face makeup on and you're
going, but you go, that's not how you would like to represent myself.
Are you sure sir?
I don't mean to be rude, but look at you. I don't think the jury will
take kindly to, well, let's face it, a freak.
I study jurisprudence. I've got an LLB.
Oh, never mind. Forgive me, Mr. So-and-so. Please, by all means.
Thank you.
And then just immediately starts trying to chew people's heads or something.
I recommend if you haven't, if you don't know about long legs, if you're not going to see it
because you don't like horror, if you're one of those people, and sometimes I'm this person,
you just read the wiki. Do just look up what Nicholas Cage looks like.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Because he's dressed like he was in T-Rex and they keep playing T-Rex music.
But he also looks a bit like...
He looks like a glam zombie.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, I think he looks like Beetlejuice if you're watching one of those Rick and Morty
episodes where it's like interdimensional cable and they don't have the rights to Beetlejuice.
Oh yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, yeah, he's, yeah, he's seventies
cocaine Beetlejuice. Yeah. Yeah. He looks like you have to say his name three times
in a mirror and then snort a line off that mirror. And then he'll come and he'll come
and do a really long guitar solo. Yeah. It's, it's, um, solo. Yeah, it's a fucking mad look.
And I've gone and read some interviews with a guy about why he...
Right he wrote that.
Yeah.
And his face is supposed to be like fucked up Botox, like he was supposed to be a glam
rocker maybe in the past.
Plastic surgery has gone wrong.
And that's why he looks like that and And his voice is all weird and you know, and all the other things.
So he might have been like a one hit wonder, like glam rocker.
And that might explain his alignment with the occult perhaps.
Yes. And also that he may be that kind of weird thing where maybe he has like a type
of now creepified original charisma that he might've had as a rocker. And then that he's
got that kind of washed up old person, like, why aren't young people into me anymore?
Let's talk about generational charisma because that's great. That's very true.
Every decade is a kind of charisma that almost immediately becomes unsettling.
He definitely has 70s like Kuki, rock and roll charisma.
It's like in the 70s, they were like, who's this crazy cat?
And I thought, yuck.
He's probably on speaking terms with the devil.
He's probably caught Damien dot evil in his.
He's got a risque tattoo.
Yeah, exactly.
And then just like, I guess, grunge charisma.
Is that coming back?
Yes.
Well, that's all the, all the clothes.
I believe it's all about that.
Baggy jeans and like, not baggy jeans, but you know what I mean? Like the...
The baggy low rise. It's all baggy low rise now for everyone. But is the attitude back? Like
grunge, that grungy attitude became, I seem to remember, quite not cool in the noughties,
where it was sort of like, you could be shoegaze indie,
but you couldn't be like the kind of ironic depressed version of that. You were shy because
you were an emo kind of thing. You weren't shy because you actually, you were like contemptuous
of mainstream.
Right, right, right. Well, but I think that's even more so now we live in such a like, you
know, obviously it's pushed back to that, but it's like, when you got hustle, when you
got like, Dive as CEO being like the biggest, we have such like hustle culture at the heart of like,
and like everyone having their own TV channels and Instagram that it's like...
Everyone is behaving.
Grunge look like when it's like...
You can't, ironically, pessimistically grunge a self-obsessed phone channel.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's true. Everyone now has to behave like they run their own fucking shopping channel
Yeah, fuck the man like like and subscribe
Fuck the man, please don't ban me from Chinese social media
Yeah, that's
The man not winning the poo. That's the important. That's in though. I like him. I think he's good
Yeah, you can't grunge anti the man, a massive global digital social media platform. It's a shame. It's a shame. Has anyone succeeded in that? Can
we think of anyone?
Well, he's managed to make a sort of cool anti-establishment aesthetic work on social
media.
Like? Aesthetic,hetic sure but I mean actual.
Well it's just always like even like you know Nirvana was signed to a massive
yeah it's true stuff so it's all like it's all you can't it's very hard truly and actually
I've just realized who Long Legs reminds me of Tiny Tim.
Not Charles Dickens.
No no no he's got that. No, no, no.
He's got that little crutch.
No, no, no.
Tiny Tim, the ukulele artist.
I don't know that.
I don't know who that is.
Have you seen Insidious?
I've not seen Insidious.
That's the one, quite funny enough, my wife,
my wife wanted me to-
To watch it?
Wanted that to be the poster for my show.
She wanted me to have a riff on and it be like me.
Oh, I know exactly what you mean.
And then it be me probably as the little weird,
the little weird red guy.
Is that the right way to say it?
The shoulder man.
The little red shoulder man.
Red shoulder man.
I don't really know anything about red shoulder man
beyond the poster campaign.
No, and I would say that that's not insidious.
In the horror movie, Insidious,
there is a sort of,
maybe a vinyl player or something
that keeps playing Tiny Tim.
So Tiny Tim, feel free to look him up, deeply unsettling.
The deeply unsettling man.
He's got long hair and he looks a bit like
Wierd Al Jankovic.
Right.
And he's got a ukulele and he sings that, um, tiptoe through the tulips.
Like he sings in a falsetto.
It's really horrible.
And it's perfect horror movie music.
It's a glam rock Tiny Tim.
Yeah.
Well, Tiny Tim was around in the sixties and he sings like tiptoe through the tulips and
a couple of, one other very famous creepy high pitched one.
And then, and I got obsessed with this track for a bit because I looked him up after watching insidious and I recommend listening to it. He's got
a song about the harrowing after effects of global climate disaster.
What? I know.
When, when was that recorded?
In the sixties.
Okay, great.
60s or 70s. And it's all about how the whole world is flooded now and how he's like, there's
a line where he says, um, you know, God, where's this?
Tick tock through the seaweed.
Well, no, he's singing like, then he puts on like a deep voice like he's a line where he says, you know, oh God, what is he talking about? Tick toe through the seaweed. Well, no, he's singing like, then he puts on like
a deep voice like he's a demon.
It's like, I am a fish and stuff.
He's singing about like how he's in the subterranean,
like your world is his now, cause he's a fish.
It's really like spooky and unsightly.
Yeah, I can't recommend that.
Okay, oh, that's my wall back into town.
Really, really.
That's my pre-show site playlist today.
That's what he's like, He's like zombie Tiny Tim.
Oh, hello.
Hello.
What, what, if you're going to be a monstrous demon
in a, in a thriller, you have to have a silly voice.
Yeah. Yeah.
Buffalo Bill and Silence the Lambs.
Oh, hi.
You're listening to, you're listening to Bud Pout.
Oh, he's horrible fucking.
What type of podcast do you think Buffalo Bill would do? Great British Sowing Bee.
Yeah. Yeah. They just watch it back. It's one of the, it's not even an official one.
It's one of the unofficial ones. You can really make see the folds.
Like he's really, but he keeps talking about leather.
That's very unsettling.
Probably that I guess.
Yeah, no, I think that's right.
Yeah, like a craft podcast.
He's very crafty.
Buffalo Bill.
And then even Hannibal Lecter is doing
a slightly silly voice.
Yeah, food podcast for him, surely.
Hannibal Lecter on off menu.
No, no. His is on menu and you have to eat human flesh.
Haha.
Still all sparkling human. It's one of the...
Haha.
Papa Dom's our bread, Clarice.
Haha.
Haha.
Good evening, Mr. Gamble. I'd love, I'd love.
I would love to crowdfund a very good Hannibal Lecter.
I'm having a mixture of famous comedians and superstar Hollywood actors over for dinner
tonight.
Of course, I'd eat either of you, James and Edward, but you might taste funny.
Just a little joke.
I would, I'm happy to start crowdfunding the Hannibal Lecter in person to go on off menu
for like the Halloween episode. That would be so good. I'd fucking love that. Oh yeah,
that'd be great. Probably would run out of steam after 15 minutes, but I'd listen for
the whole hour. I think you commit. I think, I think it'd been, I think there've been comedy
bang bang characters with less team that have gone on longer
than Hannibal Lecter on Off Menu.
They would loop back.
They would come back.
You'd have to work out what Hannibal Lecter's promoting.
I think that's the key,
you'd have to work out what Hannibal Lecter's promoting
to be on Off Menu.
Is he in a film?
Is he gonna book out?
Is he-
He's trying to get released.
He's trying to get released.
So he's zooming in.
So you don't wanna go into close of studios directly.
You want to zoom in from prison.
No, no.
They go visit him like Clarice.
Oh great.
They have to take the photo by the glass.
They have to sit there.
There's a lot of glare from the...
They're trying to get clips.
They're like, we've got to collab with Lector.
Mr. Dr. Lector, this won't do numbers on socials if we can't get a good shot of you through
the glass.
I quite understand.
I'm worried I'm shadow banned from Instagram.
The woke mob have been suppressing my posts.
Of course you can't have him on as one of the few anti-murder podcasts.
We could have him on only to really barrack him about his murders.
But you still throw in like a couple of softball questions at the end for self-promotion.
Yeah, just about stuff like, well, you know, what's your favorite item to cook with?
Have you ever shit yourself?
We'd bring back poo stories for Hannibal Lecter because it'd be harrowing.
Your founder. Did you ever worry that there'd be evidencerowing. I don't know if you've found a...
Did you ever worry that there'd be evidence in your shit or something?
I think I've said this before,
but the one thing missing from Hannibal Lecter is
his satisfaction.
He's killing and eating these people,
murdering them and stuff for like motivation.
He has reasons to do it.
And what is that?
In a real, it's stuff to do with his childhood
and also because he tends to kill and eat people
who've been rude to him.
He's obsessed with sort of etiquette.
He calls them freed range rude.
But then like, if you're a serial killer,
what then happens if you're Ted Bundy
is that you then go and like jack off in the woods
or something, or like, you know,
you fucking wear their face as a mask or like something that immediately turns the killer
really into something a bit pathetic. Right. Oh, you're just a little freak, you know,
whereas he only works as a high status character because you never see that freak bit where
Hannibal Lecter is just absolutely spanking it after another successful day of murdering.
Which is what he would do. Such a funny takeaway to go like,
can we at last humanise Lecter by seeing him jerk off in the woods after eating someone?
Yeah, that would be the realistic version.
And then everyone would go,
oh, no, he's not that scary anymore.
I actually pity him now.
He's sort of pitiable and revolting as opposed to like,
would you go to his mansion for your fancy dinner? It would be the best meal cooked of your life
by an IQ 165 man before he then ate you.
Oh, spooky, what if you made it though?
What if he liked you?
What if he liked you?
What if he liked you?
Or not like other serial killer victims.
No, you're clever, he likes you.
You're like Clarice, he's going to make you his pet.
Yeah, but then if you saw him going, you know, giggling and sort of wetting himself
or something, driving home, dancing around the kitchen while he's cooking.
I, I already have quite a like pathological worry about being rude to people. So the idea
that I could murder me. Yeah, but I would be so, I'd be like, like it would be very
hard for me.
Relax Alex.
But your, your murder, your Hannibalectomel
would be a sort of ironic breakfast.
Right. If he killed an eight year old.
I'd be like, at least make me into a bagel.
Yeah, yeah, he would. Yeah, yeah.
He'd try and make bacon out of you somehow.
It's what he would have wanted.
Did you watch a TV show with Mads Mikkelsen?
I did with Mikkelsen, yeah. Very graphic.
Fuckin' hell. It's so beautiful,sen? I did with Mikkelsen, yeah. Very graphic.
Fucking hell.
It's so beautiful, but disgusting.
It's beautiful and disgusting, yes.
I liked it.
I like anything with Mads Mikkelsen in, really.
It's great.
We went to see, which you talked about on a previous podcast, we went to see the Promised
Land or Bastarden.
Bastarden.
So funny. Bastard. It was so funny when it came out. see the promised land or or bastard bastard bastard promised land subtitles okay well speaking
of victims and bastards it's it's time to read out some correspondence

Request, email, phone, tweets, your sister,

I wrote in specially before.
Oh yeah. No, it's a lady Alex.
Oh, well we respect them as well.
So you have to do a rhyme now, Alex.
Oh, Alex should have a delicious Tex-Max.
All right.
I don't love it.
No, it's what we have.
It's what we have.
Alex will have a delicious Tex-Max.
I'm so sorry, Alex.
Maybe she likes Tex-Max.
Hello, fully wiped non poopy boys.
Yeah, I think that's mostly true this month.
It's a least true month of the year for that though.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh yeah, definitely August.
August is the bum month.
You mentioned of Disney's frozen, Disney's frozen head.
Sorry, that was hard to read.
I love the idea of mixing up the projector reels for that.
Disney's frozen.
Sorry.
Disney's frozen head.
That's great.
What a genuinely accidental but really good joke.
I should note that.
Your mention of Disney's frozen head
reminded me of a discussion of conspiracy theories
that I was involved in.
There is a conspiracy theory that the reason Frozen was called Frozen rather than its
working title of The Snow Queen is because the cryogenically frozen head rumors got too
rampant.
Now if you Google Disney Frozen, you get empowered female characters in annoyingly catchy tunes
rather than any creepy sci-fi Disney business.
Do we believe that?
Do we believe you changed the name of a movie
just because of your founder's frozen head rumor?
I don't think it was doing them any harm.
Because I heard about the frozen head as a teenager.
This is a man that cares about the future.
He wants to be around with us.
The most respectful thing you do for the future of humanity
is care about it enough that you want to be there
when it's there.
Yeah, I refuse to believe that they prioritize the rumor
that he had a frozen head over the rumor
of his profound antisemitism.
They'd be like, we need to make a movie called Antisemitism.
Yeah, yeah.
Disney's Antisemitism.
It's a great 3D kids movie about, I suppose, Moses.
Now when you Google Disney Antisemitism,
you get this great kids film.
It's all the emotions inside Moses head, but they do have fluctuating borders and the UN
are not quite sure about where which bit.
It's the highest budget thing Disney's ever made.
It is a 172 part 3D animation of the entire Talmud.
It's going to be the most difficult and complicated thing
that's ever been made. It's going to take a lot of rabbinical advice, but we're going
to do it. Because we can't. Every single rabbi through history is going to be represented.
Rabbi Nachman from modern day Ukraine. He's in there. They're all there. And now imagine
it like an MCU announcement where it's all the different and then still inexplicably
Robert Downey Jr. is playing one of the rabbis and we're like, we don't need to have him.
Post credit scene Ezekiel the prophet walks in.
It's Harry Styles and Ezekiel, everyone loses their fucking mind.
Robert Downey Jr.'s Job.
All the Old Testament figures.
I'm now trying to think about what Robert Downey is Job, the line about like, oh, just billionaire inventor philanthropist.
What does Job do? Doubt a returner to the faith.
Just the most successful and faithful servant of God.
Yeah, sure. Punish your best servant. That's what he'd do. Little ironic things while he
gets covered in boils. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I've talked myself around to this. I don't
mind it. I'm so into it. Okay, great. Well, Disney, if you're listening inside your, I
guess, jar, get in touch. With Alex's point about the, isn't that also, I'm trying to
remember the football team, but isn't that also, I'm trying to remember the football team,
but isn't that the notion there was a conspiracy about Taylor Swift dating Travis Kelsey because
is it the Jets that he plays for or is there a football team called the Jets?
And so there was the notion that he plays for Red One.
Yeah, West Texas Reds as the Pro Evolution Soccer.
Yeah, he, yeah.
He definitely doesn't play for the Pittsburgh Steelers because that's orange and black.
But he's a football team called the Jets and there was a kind of big brain theory
that it was because Taylor Swift Private Jet was getting searched so much that you call it.
But I feel it feels quite a big relationship to get into.
Taylor Swift, Kansas City Chiefs.
Ah, maybe her plane is called Chief Force One.
And the idea that Taylor Swift is sitting in this all white room like the architect in the matrix.
You think I've ever loved anyone? No.
I'll shag that half brain damaged footballer for a bit.
Because then somehow people will forget I have a private jet.
So well, Alex says, on this I'd like to ask if there are any mini
conspiracy theories you do believe.
I, I, I was, I had a feeling that, I do think we landed on the moon. Yes. But I think the
moon landing is one of the least, the moon landing conspiracy is one of the least bad
ones because I think most conspiracy theories over complicate. I think the whole point of
conspiracy theories is supposedly that you're meant to de-complicate in expectable things.
It's a way of like simplifying the world, whereas I think most of them make it more
complicated. Whereas the moon landing, if you just go, oh, how did we do that? That's
insane. Wouldn't it be easy to film it on a studio? I get it. In reality, making thousands
of NASA scientists never spill the beans is more complicated. But I
can understand why you would.
Still doing as much research and development of new alloys and materials that you would
have had to do anyway.
But just going like at the same time, basically you shouldn't be able to land on the moon
when TV is black and white. That is the thing that's happening in people's brain and they're
going like, well, we can't have done that.
Yeah. I had a routine once about talking to a conspiracy theorist who said, she said,
she said, I used to never think we landed on the moon, but now I do. And I thought,
good. And she said, because when we landed on the moon, that's when we met the aliens. She said, that's
when we met the aliens. They were there to sort of meet us as if, cause the aliens were
like, oh, we're going to wait till they're advanced enough to do this. Then we'll meet
them and be like, welcome to space. You know, you're.
So ironically, she, if we're talking about Kubrick in the moon, she literally did watch
2001 of space odyssey and was like, yep, that's what happened. That's what happened.
We found that we found the weird obelisk on the moon.
Yeah.
Well, the idea is that there was a kind of like greeting party or whatever.
Because like when you get advanced enough to go to space, the benevolent aliens that
are better than us trying to shepherd us into the future gently.
And as a result, they gave us a bunch of technology with sort of strict instructions or with the
US with strict instructions on like how to parceling it out.
What does that you get you get a little bit of you like you open this technology box in
2040.
Yeah, this one in 2070.
You have to be slow because otherwise it'll just destroy humanity's society.
Like, so like, okay, now they're just about ready for iPhones.
They've had computers for a bit kind of thing.
And I was like, right. And she was like, well, what other explanation is there for, for like
how things are just getting more and more advanced faster and faster and faster. And
I was like, well, I mean, microchips, you know, the Moore's law numbers, Moore's law
numbers. Yeah. They have numbers work. The explanation is how numbers work is our numbers
work. Yeah. It'sonentially increasing capacity every decade.
And a guy predicted it and that's what's happening. She was like, oh, well.
So, you know, but I quite like that. She was like, we didn't land on the moon. Wait, we did.
That's where we met the aliens. So that's a good example. PS, please Google that one tiger from
Zootopia to see a guy who was in literally one shot of the movie, but who has a powerful online following
of women with daddy issues.
Oh, you've sent the picture,
Felipe sent me the sexy picture.
Oh, yes, I see.
Oh, wow.
And it looks like he's jacked,
but he's reading something.
And I think that looks, that you feel safe.
His jacked muscles are inside like a sort of nice jumper or nice shirt or something.
And he's got a sort of like kind smile.
Kind smile. He's like, yeah, yeah.
I can see why this has happened.
And he's next to like-
A lot of other tigers are quite angry because
he's next to that tiger is referred to as having a dad bod, but actually he's jacked as fuck.
And they're like, oh yeah, that's not a dad bod, he's jacked.
He does 200 pull ups.
Stop body shaming us non-tigers.
He's also quite near tiny rabbit, which gives him scale and gentleness.
And he looks like a good, yeah, that maybe he's like a kind of...
So is this tiger is the female version of the kind of stretchy, massive assed mum from The Incredibles.
Right. Is it fair to say that I think she's referred to as having a dump truck ass?
Yes.
I hate that I've said that.
Yes, prime minister.
Yeah, put it in Hansard. I've said it in the chamber. Dump truck ass will be there.
I believe she's referred to as having a dump truck ass. I see. Yes. Yeah. Trial.
The idea that that's her constituency and you can't refer to her as her name. You have
to say the right honorable lady for the lady with a dump truck ass. Yes. Yes. Yes. Uh,
we're to the point where people would sort of post screenshots of it and say, what are
they doing to us? Why would you put this in a kid's film? And the answer is for the dads. And we have some tat.
Great.
Alex says, thanks boys.
Koji, two animated animals, if that's your kink.
Which is very understanding of her.
So this is from Mimi.
Hi Mimi.
Don't stop the Stevie. Come see me. Come see me. It's harder than it looks.
We're a long way away from Who Ate the Pies. Who ate all the pies. Mimi says,
Dear Poo and Fart, which is nice. Fart with a PH, I guess that's Phil. Phil is fart.
I'm currently on maternity leave and a big fan of the pod which has been making me laugh out loud on endless park walks trying to get my bebe to sleep.
While browsing online in the early hours, the algorithm has spewed me up some spectacular baby slash new mum tat, a genre I don't believe you have discussed before.
The newborn baby onesies are truly terrifying.
Anyway, please can you give a shout out to all the new Bud Pod mums at the moment
with failing maternity services, pressure for natural birth
and terrifically expensive childcare.
It's a hard ride at the moment.
Yes, I do not.
This country is doing all it can to stop people
from having kids.
It's fucking mad.
Love you both, Mimi.
So.
It is funny when you get the,
when you get like a particular lot of right-wing papers being like,
why doesn't anyone want to be a mum anymore?
I'm like, because the infrastructure, the crippling expensive.
Okay, double minimum wage.
Double it.
So then the guy has one job and the lady stays home.
The wage has to be high enough for only one of the two adults to have a job.
For at least a couple of years.
In a lot of the country that's not possible. Because anyway, yes,
it's an absolute nightmare. See if you can guess this one. It's a t-shirt for a mum.
Okay, t-shirt for mum. Yeah. It says, open 24-7 brewing company, two locations. Okay. And it's blank blank, always on tap. Okay. I don't think
you'll get this. It's really dumb. Is it is it left it and right it? Sure. I would love
if it said left it and right it but it must be that it's as if it's a brewing company,
right? Okay. Fake company name. Tap, tap fun and tap poo. What? It's like, it's a bit like brewing. It's a new mum.
This is like a breastfeeding joke, right? Was it not? It is very much so. So I don't think that
the milk is supposed to brew in your tits. If it's, if it'sulus. That's a pretty horrible scene.
What?
Okay, can you hit me again with it?
So it's blank blank, blank blank brewing company, open 24 seven, two locations, always on tap.
Okay, so it's going to be a riff on a company that's but to do with mums or breastfeeding
or babies.
It's somethings something-ery.
Okay, mamas.
Mamas.
You got that.
You got that.
Mamas mammaries.
You're so close.
Boo-berry.
Boo-berry.
Mamas boo-berry.
Mamas boo-berry.
Mamas boo-berry.
Mamas boo-berry.
Mamas boo-berry.
Mamas boo-berry.
Mamas boo-berry.
Mamas boo-berry.
Mamas boo-berry. Mamas boo-berry. Mamas boo-berry. Mamas boo-berry. Mamas boo mammaries. You're so close, Boobury.
Boobury.
Momma's Boobury.
Momma's Boobury.
Momma's Boobury.
Always on tap, Momma's Boobury.
The image is still a barrel.
It's still just a barrel.
It's just a barrel, yeah.
It's not like, again, I wanna,
it's not like a barrel that's like tit shaped.
No, no, it's just a straight barrel. That's like tit shapes. No, no, I know
I really missed the chance to have two I guess wooden tits. Yeah on that logo
Suck for minted milk from my wooden tits. That's what that would change the slogan to wood punk instead of steampunk
Big old Madonna. It's a Madonna bra, but it's wood. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah like a Viking
Oh god, great It's a Madonna bra, but it's wood. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, like a Viking.
Oh God. Great.
We had some tat ages ago that was like dad tat,
something to do with this.
Very gross.
So it's a baby onesie.
And it says, thank you, mum, for not blank blank.
Thank you, mum, for not.
And it's a baby onesie.
Any like images on there to give me a clue is anything
What is it just is it just the letters really? Yeah. Thank you mum for not
Dropping me. No, that is dark, but not gross enough. Okay for not
I can see exactly why you said that. Think earlier in the reproductive process, but also
a bit confusing.
Thank you for not earlier in the reproductive process. Thank you for not using the getting
off the like confusing me. It's thank you. Thank you for not swallowing me. So I guess the idea is that this baby
on the onesie on a child's clothes. I think it's crazy. My, my abortion thing is not loads more
inappropriate. I think no, no, no. What's also mad is that this doesn't make sense. Yeah. Yeah.
Because it's like, oh, okay. So she didn't swallow you. She spat it into her own vagina somehow.
Like a sort of like one of those fountains with the little like dolphins that like used like she spatter into her vagina somehow.
Like a sort of like one of those fountains with the little like dolphins that like spews like.
It went all the way up in a great arc
and just right in there.
That gibberish.
Ridiculous.
This is good.
It's just a sort of silhouette of a sperm.
It says I won.
Fantastic.
On the baby.
That's good.
Slightly Jaws font to it, I think as well.
Yes, yes, yes, very much.
Yes.
Oh, God.
Okay.
So this is a Prosecco label.
Great.
Still in the mum zone?
Yeah.
Okay.
Yes.
It's a label for wine that you stick on.
I don't know.
A mother's sacrifice isn't blank blank. It's... I kind of ruined it by saying Prosecco, I think.
I shouldn't have said that. A mother's sacrifice isn't giving birth. It's nine long months without
Prosecco! That's her sacrifice. In fairness, it can only be sort of eight months because,
you know, you can... The first month you're probably not aware. That's true. A few weeks. That's true.
A few weeks of prasakka. Yeah. And then, you know, pop them out a couple of weeks early,
you've only, you know, about seven, seven and a half months. I think you've had a pretty easy
birth if that's the main sacrifice. Yeah. Yeah. The kids just sliding out straight onto your wooden tits. Could my Apo... Could my Apo-duro be from the Loire?
Really?
Yeah, pushing this human out of my hole was fine, but it was the Prosecco that really...
I was really on edge.
And a very nice little badge that is like a parody of Greg's logo that says Pregs.
Oh, that's great.
That's nice.
I really like that.
That's nice, actually. I would get that.
And Mimi does say that she likes it.
Have you both, Mimi, that's very nice.
Thank you, Mimi.
That's lovely.
Very nice.
Have you ever seen, I'm going to bring,
but I've wanted to show you this for a long time
in the possibility.
Is it a nude of yourself?
It, yeah, yeah. But instead of prediction, which time like which, which I've revealed two of
my balls and penis, which of those three things have I shown you?
In what order?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
From what angle?
It's a bit of tap. It's like an internet made bit of tat, but it's the, you know, in
nuclear, you know, when there's nuclear waste sites.
Yes.
And there's
Oh, and they try and make the sign as frightening.
Yeah, but they there's particular phrases they try and translate into as many languages
possible with things.
And it says like, this place is not a place of honor.
No deem no no deed of esteem is stored in no honor is like, no treasure. And so there's
lots of really fun to its tax. So it's like in this house, we fucking have. So this is
a tat version of nuclear waste warning signs designed for hypothetical humans 10,000 years
from now. I thought it was the perfect intersection of your interest. Wow. In this house, we believe
this place is not a place of honor. No highly esteemed deed
is commemorated here. Nothing valued is here. What is here is dangerous and repulsive. This
place is best left shunned and uninhabited.
And it's all in the kind of like comic sans live laugh love.
Oh, the constant rapidly changing fonts.
Yeah, this like that.
That's great to be fair. I am a big fan of that.
Also, if you haven't looked it up,
look up attempts to create warning signs
for nuclear waste dump sites hypothetically
10,000 years in the future.
It's very, very interesting.
That's all we have time for.
We have to go do our friend shows for one more week

it if you shared it as well just to get the overview counter up nice and high.
Oh, I'll plug my show. It's 4.15 at the Hive for a few more days. If you're up in Edinburgh,
would love to see you. Other than that, I will be touring it in the spring, I think.

And other than that we will see you on Friday. Thank you very much. Goodbye.
Bye. Thank you for having me.
