Starting point is 00:00:00 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,
Starting point is 00:00:34 a Casefile Presents production, out now wherever you get your podcasts. Acast helps creators launch, grow, and monetize their podcasts everywhere. Acast.com. It's Bud Pod 280. Who 80 or the pies? Good.
Starting point is 00:00:56 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.
Starting point is 00:01:26 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.
Starting point is 00:02:12 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.
Starting point is 00:02:33 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.
Starting point is 00:03:06 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.
Starting point is 00:03:32 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
Starting point is 00:04:01 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.
Starting point is 00:04:33 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
Starting point is 00:04:50 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.
Starting point is 00:05:09 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.
Starting point is 00:05:45 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
Starting point is 00:06:01 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
Starting point is 00:06:29 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-
Starting point is 00:07:06 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.
Starting point is 00:07:24 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.
Starting point is 00:07:46 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.
Starting point is 00:08:04 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...
Starting point is 00:08:47 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?
Starting point is 00:09:05 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,
Starting point is 00:09:17 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.
Starting point is 00:09:47 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.
Starting point is 00:09:59 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.
Starting point is 00:10:30 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
Starting point is 00:11:00 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.
Starting point is 00:11:34 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.
Starting point is 00:12:05 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.
Starting point is 00:12:21 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
Starting point is 00:12:52 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
Starting point is 00:13:25 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?
Starting point is 00:13:54 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.
Starting point is 00:14:19 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,
Starting point is 00:14:36 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,
Starting point is 00:14:52 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.
Starting point is 00:15:13 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.
Starting point is 00:15:27 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
Starting point is 00:15:54 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.
Starting point is 00:16:15 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...
Starting point is 00:16:33 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
Starting point is 00:17:00 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?
Starting point is 00:17:16 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.
Starting point is 00:17:36 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,
Starting point is 00:18:14 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?
Starting point is 00:18:48 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,
Starting point is 00:19:00 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.
Starting point is 00:19:30 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
Starting point is 00:19:56 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,
Starting point is 00:20:19 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
Starting point is 00:20:58 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
Starting point is 00:21:35 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.
Starting point is 00:22:13 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
Starting point is 00:22:45 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.
Starting point is 00:23:14 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.
Starting point is 00:23:36 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.
Starting point is 00:23:47 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.
Starting point is 00:24:15 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.
Starting point is 00:24:50 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.
Starting point is 00:25:22 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
Starting point is 00:25:49 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.
Starting point is 00:26:21 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.
Starting point is 00:26:51 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.
Starting point is 00:27:15 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,
Starting point is 00:27:42 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...
Starting point is 00:28:12 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
Starting point is 00:28:39 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
Starting point is 00:29:18 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.
Starting point is 00:29:32 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.
Starting point is 00:29:50 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.
Starting point is 00:30:00 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
Starting point is 00:30:20 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.
Starting point is 00:30:34 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.
Starting point is 00:30:55 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.
Starting point is 00:31:14 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.
Starting point is 00:31:26 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.
Starting point is 00:31:48 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.
Starting point is 00:32:15 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...
Starting point is 00:32:34 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.
Starting point is 00:32:52 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.
Starting point is 00:33:27 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?
Starting point is 00:33:40 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.
Starting point is 00:33:49 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.
Starting point is 00:34:04 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?
Starting point is 00:34:38 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.
Starting point is 00:35:02 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,
Starting point is 00:35:18 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,
Starting point is 00:35:45 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.
Starting point is 00:36:10 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
Starting point is 00:36:27 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.
Starting point is 00:36:52 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.
Starting point is 00:37:06 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.
Starting point is 00:37:24 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 Acast 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.
Starting point is 00:38:11 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. Acast.com. Request, email, phone, tweets, your sister, chemistry, math, math, correspondence. Let's see what we have for you. This is from Alex.
Starting point is 00:38:57 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.
Starting point is 00:39:16 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.
Starting point is 00:39:33 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.
Starting point is 00:39:52 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
Starting point is 00:40:14 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.
Starting point is 00:40:33 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.
Starting point is 00:40:48 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.
Starting point is 00:41:13 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.
Starting point is 00:41:50 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
Starting point is 00:42:28 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.
Starting point is 00:43:04 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.
Starting point is 00:43:30 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
Starting point is 00:44:08 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.
Starting point is 00:44:36 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
Starting point is 00:45:15 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.
Starting point is 00:45:38 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.
Starting point is 00:46:04 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
Starting point is 00:46:39 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.
Starting point is 00:47:01 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.
Starting point is 00:47:23 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.
Starting point is 00:47:52 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.
Starting point is 00:48:26 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,
Starting point is 00:48:56 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.
Starting point is 00:49:31 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,
Starting point is 00:49:45 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,
Starting point is 00:50:06 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?
Starting point is 00:51:06 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.
Starting point is 00:51:31 You got that. Mamas mammaries. You're so close. Boo-berry. Boo-berry. Mamas boo-berry. Mamas boo-berry. Mamas boo-berry.
Starting point is 00:51:39 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.
Starting point is 00:51:46 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.
Starting point is 00:52:04 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.
Starting point is 00:52:32 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
Starting point is 00:53:04 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.
Starting point is 00:53:46 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.
Starting point is 00:54:00 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.
Starting point is 00:54:09 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.
Starting point is 00:54:22 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?
Starting point is 00:55:07 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.
