Starting point is 00:01:02 And here to share their Desert Island Dicks with us today is host of The Rival Show, but you might know him from Big Brother 5 or Ultimate Big Brother, Victor Ebuah. That's me. That would be myself. Hello. Thank you very much for joining me, Vic. Thanks for coming in, man. You were just saying to me, Ultimate Big Brother, wasn't all that? You know it's not going to be good when
Starting point is 00:01:25 someone starts with a deep breath yeah well what the concept was what was needed yeah basically the whole thing was that Big Brother was coming to an end on Channel 4 the end of the circle
Starting point is 00:01:41 so they thought why don't we get some of a collection of the best housemates who have been in throughout the prior seasons or shows, series. That's a compliment, right? Yeah, well, in some sort of way, I guess, yeah. But I've had better compliments. So there's been hundreds by now of these mutants that have gone into the house. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:04 Now, initially, you know, there's Big Brother, which is normal, you or I will go in there. And then they've got Celebrity Big Brother. Celebrity Big Brother. Big Brother is in the summer. Celebibies tends to be just after Christmas or New Year's. Right, right, right. And they put some celebrities who once were doing well
Starting point is 00:02:24 and now just put us out of our misery right right they shove them in the house right right so what they what they thought they would do is they'd make a mash up of all of that
Starting point is 00:02:33 right the problem the first thing they did wrong was they did it at the back end of the longest ever Big Brother so my one was 10 weeks
Starting point is 00:02:42 right right this one was 16 weeks for four months and you know you know Big Brother so my one was 10 weeks this one was 16 weeks four months and you know Big Brother starts getting pants after about week four so we've still got
Starting point is 00:02:51 three months of this shit oh man it's a long time fuck my life it's not a week is it you know what I mean yeah rather than them
Starting point is 00:03:01 thinking right let people breathe for God's sake yeah yeah yeah for God's sake take yeah yeah for God's sake take a blood pressure yeah yeah let's give it a

Starting point is 00:03:39 stun batons at the ready no but not just that let's put 15 other tossers right right with ridiculously over the top egos right oh man based on the nonsense adulation they received from sycophants and social misfits around about the time when they were in the house oh my god man they still think
Starting point is 00:03:59 they're fucking somebody so let's put this poor poor chick in there with him for another three weeks fucking hell man you know i mean call the samaritans if she makes it out the other end oh my god she needs to talk to someone right now forget that right so she's got cabin fever yeah she's in there with brian dowling yeah yeah yeah he's a funny guy but at the best of times you need to take five minutes off him every hour because it's all showbiz yeah right right it's all that 24 7 even even at all you're on he's interviewing you like it's not a convo he's interviewing you as if he's like he's lorraine kelly right he's not eamon holmes yeah yeah yeah yeah he wants to really know shit about you. Yeah, yeah, right. It's not funny. Right, yeah, yeah. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:04:45 One of us is going to cry at the end of this chat. Why? Oh, my God. Coolio from Gangster's Paradise. But not Gangster's Paradise Coolio. Like... Wait 20 years past midlife crisis. Got extensions in my hair to still resemble the plaits I had

Starting point is 00:07:58 nasty Nick yeah nasty Nick yeah he's got to have been like nasty Nick that's got to be one of the most remembered names because that was the first one, wasn't it? The first one.
Starting point is 00:08:09 Yeah, yeah. They put a sociopath in you. I'm saying it, Bateman. Handle your shit, brother. You've heard it. You know what I mean? Because you'll hear this. But I tell you, it's like Craig won it, right?
Starting point is 00:08:19 That first one. Yeah. But Nasty Nick will always be the most remembered. Isn't it right? Yeah. He was living the life. He told me stories of he came out Ferrari. Because this was back in the day.
Starting point is 00:08:30 Yeah. First one. It was new. Yeah, first one. You walk through Leicester Square, they had a big, giant TV, 24 hours on Big Brother. Whoa. You got to see Darren tugging one out in the shower. Yes, yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:42 Yeah, and everyone was glued to it for that. When's he going gonna blow his own when's he someone in some some bookie in India was taking bets on it yeah that's how big it was
Starting point is 00:08:52 yeah so yeah and when you look at what he got notorious for right nothing yeah of course oh yeah
Starting point is 00:09:00 vote for this I'm talking about if he had come out of them somebody would have bricked him that kind of like just because he was writing someone's name
Starting point is 00:09:08 it's crazy to think it went from that but he was the one who said it who made the whole thing explode people were gripped to whatever he was
Starting point is 00:09:15 getting up to oh he's sneaky he's going to premierise with Brad Pitt afterwards that's crazy stuff like Ferrari just giving him a Ferrari
Starting point is 00:09:22 no way it's like the thing is right at that point people had never seen it in that way right there wasn't anything
Starting point is 00:09:30 like that before no it just started off as a one it was a social experiment in Holland because you know
Starting point is 00:09:37 these guys smoke hella weed out there you know what I mean so they've got different fucking concepts coming out of the arms yeah
Starting point is 00:09:45 they probably invented Gogglebox yeah let's all sit at home watch some people watch TV yeah this is a show people
Starting point is 00:09:54 there's a show in this you know what I mean it was some Dutch motherfucker I'm telling you right these guys yeah put people in a dome and let's watch them interact
Starting point is 00:10:02 blah blah blah and one of those Dutch people saw it and thought, why don't we just do this with normal people? Yeah. And it just went worldwide. That's it. So.
Starting point is 00:10:11 Oh, man. Oh, mate, that's crazy. It was. What an insight, though. It was a lot. But, like, okay, now we're on the subject. We got there early, right? Yeah, we did.
Starting point is 00:10:20 But you've got to think back to, like, when you first applied, right? What was the, like, the application? Because, obviously, when you first applied, right? What was the like the application? Because obviously when you applied, you'd seen it before and you were like, I'm going to go in for this. Yeah. It was a different perception, right? You were like, that looks like fun or... No, that's 100% exactly not what happened.
Starting point is 00:10:38 That's probably what happened with most normal humans, right? Yeah. But I'm a lion, mate. We roamed the jungle. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm not a human. Yeah. Now I've given myself that big build right? Yeah. But I'm a lion, mate. We roam the jungle. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm not a human. Yeah. Now, I've given myself
Starting point is 00:10:48 that big build-up. Yeah. The real reason is the stupidest shit you'll ever hear. Right? So I've got a friend, I had a friend,
Starting point is 00:10:55 that was at university. Yeah. I had a friend who kept auditioning for this stupid Big Brother show that I keep frigging seeing everywhere.
Starting point is 00:11:02 Yeah, yeah. The reason I see it is because at university I was a bit of a popular guy and I somehow would find my way in the rooms with other ladies
Starting point is 00:11:09 let's say that I was having a lot of sex with other ladies at university and this show was on in the background while I was trying to romance them
Starting point is 00:11:15 and confuse them and attract them to me right cool that's why I knew what the show was one of my friends kept auditioning for it
Starting point is 00:11:23 right and didn't make it onto the show right we of my friends kept auditioning for it right and didn't make it onto the show right we was at university together one of them situations where you've got
Starting point is 00:11:31 a load of friends around and it's all load of banter yeah yeah yeah and I was giving it to him mercilessly how can you not get on the show you know what I mean and he
Starting point is 00:11:39 everyone was laughing he went you couldn't get on it oh yeah he stuck it on me. But in front of everybody. The whole room was like Western.
Starting point is 00:11:48 The whole room went quiet. What's he going to do? Yes, I could. Five pounds says you couldn't. Five quid bet. Yeah. With my good friend Obadiah fucking Matthew. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:01 Yeah, I'm putting your name out there. And that was it. I had to go and audition because he put it on me for five quid and then you just you went you were real I guess
Starting point is 00:12:10 and then they were like right you're in you said how it is the audition process lasted a number of months right it was it was crazy
Starting point is 00:12:17 it's quite a long time I found out I was going in about a month before I went in and let's say I started auditioning in January so in those days
Starting point is 00:12:25 it started in may yeah yeah that's a good few months good few months and like and what helped was because i wasn't i wasn't about this life i wasn't it wasn't about tv or reality show any of that i didn't really want to be seen i was yeah doing what i was doing in other years the application process was you fill out a big application form and you film yourself and send the video in right yeah yeah right i'm not doing that shit i don't have time for that i've got to get on with the rest of my life yeah right this year because the year before mine was so bad yeah lost endorsements yeah it was they were looking channel four looking to cut it off if this was another so it had to be a good it had to be a good year. So they just thought, right,
Starting point is 00:13:06 let's go and raid Arkham Asylum in Gotham City and see if we can get the Joker and a few of his mates and put them in there. Let's give the people, you think you want to see some shit? Here you go.
Starting point is 00:13:18 Right? Hold my drink. You know, I've got this. Right? Open audition. To make it even easier for me, it was in the Excel Centre in Canning Town,
Starting point is 00:13:29 which is like 10 minutes from me. Doorstep challenge. Walked down, yeah. All you've got to do is turn up, Vic. That was it. And this guy, Obi, was on me. He called me. I used to go home from Brunel University on the weekends
Starting point is 00:13:41 from Uxbridge to East London. So I was there. I met up with my guys. We partied. Obi calls me. Are you going to the audition today? When is it? It started at nine.
Starting point is 00:13:50 What time is it? Two. You owe me five pound, bruv. Set up like the Undertaker. You can get five pound from me. You know what I mean? Went to Canning Town. Tens of thousands of people
Starting point is 00:14:04 queuing around the building i'm like oh fuck sake i said how long is queue time um someone said five hours and this is like you queue to have a a mini audition outside the building you might not even get into the excel center you might get just told no you're not through and you're five hours okay yeah so i thought fuck that shit i pushed in the front and then it gave it a couple of minutes, murmurings,
Starting point is 00:14:27 and then some people went, oh, excuse me, have you pushed in? No, I haven't pushed in. A little bit of arguing. I threatened to headbutt someone. Did you? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:37 I just thought, let's just go zero to 100 on these fuckers, innit? And then a little woman comes over and she says, right, what's going on? They said, oh oh he's pushed in
Starting point is 00:14:46 I said I haven't pushed in there's no clear signage that says that this is where the line begins right so I'm just taking advantage of my right as a citizen of London
Starting point is 00:14:55 to stand where I want and I choose to stand right here she goes yeah alright then big mouth you so they take ten of you out of the line
Starting point is 00:15:04 and you've each got ten seconds to say why you should be on Big Brother and I was just giving it Yeah? All right then, big mouth. You, so they take 10 of you out of the line. And you've each got 10 seconds to say why you should be on Big Brother. Right. And I was just giving it large about wanting to win the money. I don't want to make friends. I don't want any of that. These are all tossers. Look at them.
Starting point is 00:15:15 Blah, blah, blah. Everyone went down. She goes, right, you've got to nominate one person to leave the queue, the process. Everyone was standing around scratching their willies. I went, this guy here and she went oh why he said he's been to the Dublin auditions
Starting point is 00:15:28 to the Manchester auditions and to this is the second one of his London auditions so he's been to six auditions and he hasn't got in there's fuck all interesting
Starting point is 00:15:38 about you mate just knock it off knock it on the head fella brutal she was like everyone was like no get rid of him he threatened to headbutt me
Starting point is 00:15:46 he pushed in da da da so she goes you come out of the queue mate I was like oh fuck this started walking off waddling down the road
Starting point is 00:15:53 actually I was quite a lean back then so I was walking off right she goes no no you wait there she turns to the others and says oh guys sorry
Starting point is 00:16:01 you haven't made it at this point you know thanks for trying. Thanks for auditioning, but you're welcome to try again. All right? Victor, come here. Stamp my hand with a big I.
Starting point is 00:16:11 So right now I'm gassed in it. So I'm going, I'm like, what's going on, guys? You locked you for four hours. I've been there for like, what? Four minutes? Suck it! That's what it was.
Starting point is 00:16:26 Went in and then they put me into another group a lot of it was like watching how you interact in groups who's the extroverts who's the introverts
Starting point is 00:16:33 they were like oh go in this group with ten people we want you to talk about the escalating situation in the middle east
Starting point is 00:16:38 what do you think about it we sat down and I said and they started talking about no what do you think Victor
Starting point is 00:16:44 no I don't want to talk about this as your shit. Let's talk about it. Did Michael Jackson, did all those boys? That's what I want to talk about. Oh my God. What do you think, huh? Why is he giving them fucking Jesus juice? Am I right?
Starting point is 00:16:55 Do you think, what's happening here? What's happening at Neverland Ranch? Really? We don't want to talk about this. Is that what you're saying? Yeah, yeah. So everyone was turned on me and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Lined us up.
Starting point is 00:17:03 It was like, you know, a firing squad. Everyone else go home. Vic, you're through. Really? Just like that? And I just clocked that. If I'd be as much of a douchebag as I possibly can, which isn't hard as you've clocked,
Starting point is 00:17:15 I will make this. And in a few months, we went through different things. I know so much about this fucking process, mate. Yeah, but the thing is, like, in that, you just did whatever the fuck you wanted, right? All the other people auditioning were being super self-conscious, right, about what they were doing.
Starting point is 00:17:31 But you just rocked up and just did it, and you were just like, no, I'm just going to do it this way, straight through. When I realised it, it all got out of hand. I was in the house. I was in the house, in bed. And you were like... And everyone, autism, and I'm like,
Starting point is 00:17:43 what the fuck am I doing here? I should have just given Obi the five quid. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. And to this day, he hasn't given me the five quid. But that changed your life. Yeah. He owes you five pounds.
Starting point is 00:17:54 He owes me a lot more because this dude, like, is a ladies' man. Oh, really? And just through being around me, yeah, phew, some of the the one night love that has occurred yeah it's my back this guy should be kissing my feet i'm king jaffee joffer and coming to america yeah yeah no big up big up obi yeah okay okay but then yeah like i said game changer right it must have changed things for you you come out out and people are recognising you in the street.
Starting point is 00:18:25 They're like... Coming from where I'm from, you don't really want to be recognised. You're not supposed to be getting recognised. Yeah, yeah, yeah. What was good about Big Brother was it was around some of the first legal money I had made in my life. And it kind of put the fucking coffin into the ground
Starting point is 00:18:39 on me doing anything that was outside of the realms of conventional morality. Right, okay. Let's just say that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, I was already slowing down anyway. I've got a child, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:50 I don't fancy him visiting me surrounded by a hundred other fucking goons. Yeah, yeah, yeah. In the clink. Yeah, yeah. So, you know. Yeah, fine. Okay, yeah. It was, for the most part, it's been positive, I'd say.
Starting point is 00:19:02 Yeah, well, thank you for coming in. Victor. Is that the end of this? No, no, no. I mean... I feel like someone's going to come out and shoot me. I feel like I've known you all my life now. Do you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:19:13 It's an emotional... We're having a moment here, mate. We are, yeah. I feel like we're really connecting. Did you know that? Jeez. Can I have a minute? Yeah, mate.

Because just as the gods have blessed me from above, he was on a trip, just on a trip back to Nigeria. So for the first three weeks, he wasn't back. Right, right, right.

Yes, I saw this, right? Okay, so to listeners that haven't seen Game of Thrones, who's the Night King? The Night King is the leader of an undead army
Starting point is 00:25:47 of myth and legend, last seen thousands of years ago in a fantasy world called Westeros. There's different kingdoms who have all got their own hierarchy, but at the top of the food chain is the king yeah right it's been different people robert baratheon um joffrey you might have heard of yeah joffrey yeah i know he was a bastard god damn it you better be his parent or you're
Starting point is 00:26:18 fucked anyone anybody can get it yeah right but okay basically, it's a world of humans and the powerful take advantage of the poor and everyone's jostling for position and power throughout this. And there's different people with different claims to the throne all fighting for it. There's a chick who's got frigging dragons for crying out loud. And nobody's seen dragons. A lot of stuff that you might have heard of and people think are bullshit. That's what I'm saying. It's sort of almost like today's world, but fantasy in a fantasy realm of swords and sandals, that kind of stuff that you might have heard of and people think are bullshit, that's what I'm saying. It's sort of almost like today's world, but fantasy in a fantasy realm
Starting point is 00:26:47 of swords and sandals, that kind of stuff. And all the stuff you think's bullshit right now, these guys, it's happening. So you could be there and there are dragons floating. What the fuck? It's a fucking dragon.
Starting point is 00:26:57 Do you know what I mean? And there's a chick running about who says she's got a claim to the throne. She's got three of these fuckers. Nobody in the world has got a claim to the throne she's got three of these fuckers nobody in the world's got she's like nobody in the world has got a knife but she has got scud missiles yeah right okay yeah yeah who's a tough guy yeah i'm in charge now yeah yeah and she's got an army of absolute savages who just want to kill people for no goddamn reason i feel like yeah she's gonna win right you'd think so she's even got an army of dudes who've been castrated so all they can all they do is think
Starting point is 00:27:29 about is fighting wow they can't even have a tug yeah yeah imagine that pent up yeah you can't even how are we doing this guys fuck better break out the last step last season of friends again yeah and then but what they don't know is in amongst all they're just killing each other for power on the other side they've got a big wall that is meant to keep another whole band of lawless there's a whole race of lawless humans living beyond this barrier it It's kind of like, I think it must be like what Scotland was like when the Romans, they built Hadrian's wall. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:11 Yeah. And let's think about this guys, the Romans, right. Who conquered most of the world, went everywhere and made everyone their bitch. Came to England, done them in the ass.
Starting point is 00:28:20 Right. And then went up, took a look over in Scotland, had a look at what was going on over there thought fuck that it's easier for us to build a wall
Starting point is 00:28:29 across the whole fucking isle get these dickheads up there then try it yeah you know you're good guys
Starting point is 00:28:35 yeah yeah you do your thing we'll do ours yeah there's those dudes there that's what this wall's here for but people also say

But people also say this wall is here to keep zombies. Yeah. There were zombies generations ago. Okay, okay. That's what's made this... And people are like, it's bullshit, right? But these zombies are real.

Starting point is 00:29:18 No. The one, if worse comes to worse and you think, I could die. Yeah. Not with this fucker around. He's keeping you up.

Yeah. So instantly sticks out like Theresa May. OK, dare I ask, where does this come from? It comes from several places, none of which are particularly good.
Starting point is 00:30:45 No, good. Okay, let's go. Her only role for being with us is to perhaps bring some kind of order and organisation to proceedings. We're stranded. For God's sake, let's get organised. That's what she should be doing. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:01 From how she's handled her own party and this whole Brexit debacle let me start using political yeah here we go debacle right yeah she couldn't organise

Starting point is 00:32:04 as a person yeah as a person. Yeah. As a person. I'm a man who believes in girl power. I was raised amongst real women. Four sisters and a strong mum. Yeah. Who now is overbearing,

Starting point is 00:32:31 and it comes in the form of it was bad enough she had some of her MPs go on tonight with that other bald dude that
Starting point is 00:32:39 and they were dancing to some David Ram Jam Roddick and that was bad when I saw Michael Portillo dancing I thought you know oh nodick and that was bad. When I saw Michael Portillo dancing, I thought, you know.

Starting point is 00:34:14 And he's crying. Sniveller. Theresa May, third choice. Wow, what an island this is shaping up to be. Okay, thank you very much, Vic. Now, mercifully, among the wreckage of the plane, there was some food and drink left over. Unfortunately for you,
Starting point is 00:34:26 it's your least favourite food and drink in the world. What are they and why are they so bad? Food is vegan food. Vegan food, okay. Vegan motherfuckers. Yeah, right, right, right. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:38 Go on. You know what it is? I'm all for letting everyone live. Live and let live. Do your thing yeah I don't mind if you're if you have your steak medium rare
Starting point is 00:34:48 rare you can just take it out of the packet and eat it with some crap you know what I mean right I don't mind but why have I got
Starting point is 00:34:58 this is what I'm saying it's they've affected my tasting of the food nah okay the actual vegans. Yeah. These guys are... They're an army. They're an army.
Starting point is 00:35:10 If they decide that they want to all put balaclavas on and smash up everyone else's food, there's fuck all we can do about it. Yeah. Someone's got to stop them. So what is it? So you're seeing too much vegan at the minute. They won't leave us alone. Right, okay. Leave me... And here's the other thing. Why is it when So you're seeing too much vegan at the minute. They won't leave us alone.
Starting point is 00:35:25 Right, okay. Leave me. And here's the other thing. Why is it when someone's a vegan, like let's say you're on Tinder and you're looking through the profile, works for Amstrad. Okay, maybe this is Tinder in the 80s.
Starting point is 00:35:39 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, sorry. Right, she works for ITN. Yeah, yeah. Is that even still? Yeah. Journalist. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Right, she works for ITN. Yeah, yeah. Is that even still? Yeah. Journalist. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Starting point is 00:36:11 Too much. Just live your lives, guys. Yeah, right. Let us live ours. Yes. I was flicking through and I came on the one show one time,
Starting point is 00:36:18 don't ask me why. And there was a dude on there with a fucking moustache, right? Last seen on Freddie Mercury, right? Talking about, oh yeah, you know, lobbying parliament to stop people from eating animal products. Why? I thought this was a world of choice.
Starting point is 00:36:37 Pro-choice. Them doing that kind of stuff, what stops some maniac saying, I don't like gay people, let me lobby thing to make hope to make anal sex or or same-sex interactions illegal again as once upon a time it once was wasn't it let's let's revoke whatever article it was that that made people allowed to be free to love who the fuck they want as it should be yeah yeah, yeah. You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't like people telling other people
Starting point is 00:37:05 what's good for them. Yeah, right, right. Everyone should be, like free will was given to us all by God or whatever alien is up there who's controlling, who created humanity. Free will, right?
Starting point is 00:37:19 Apart from important stuff like climate change because we all right now currently need to live on this planet. Yeah. So can we do something about that? That's a shout, you know what i mean that's a good message why aren't we lobbying why aren't people kicking up you know stones about that but he says you've got some fucking dude with a mustache right he's got glam rock mustache going on telling me about i can't have a fucking leg of lamb. Yeah. Yeah. As well, I think you made a real good point there because it's like we're spending all this money Brexiting the EU right now, right?
Starting point is 00:37:50 Imagine if we spend that money on climate change, right? And stop caring where the fuck we get our apples from. Do you know what I mean? Yeah. Exactly. What a big waste of money. Yeah. Mate, always, look, there's no money for police.
Starting point is 00:38:03 There's no money for firemen and firemen and emergency services there's no fucking money you never see bobbies on the beat looking after people and stuff anymore or you don't see him kicking in the heads of black guys when they're stopping search do we i guess we still do um right you know there's a but as soon as they want money for donald trump's over, they're pulling money out of their anuses. Money's coming out of people. Someone's sneezing and money's flying out of his nose. Oh, there's money for this. Let me tell you something.
Starting point is 00:38:33 There's money, people. There is money. It's just whoever squeezing it from the many and keeping it for the few. And that's how humans have always been that is how power works
Starting point is 00:38:48 humans do not work there's no hive mentality looking for the great and good it's just everyone that's the flip side of it everyone for themselves
Starting point is 00:38:55 and ambition leads to people abusing power when they get it you start off with the best of intentions and once you've got it you think ooh
Starting point is 00:39:02 maybe I will give my wife that million pounds to go spend in Paris. And no one's taking a pay cut. Do you know what I mean? No, no, no. No, no, no. Once you're living that life,
Starting point is 00:39:13 they're not giving it back. Well, why would you? Yeah, of course. But then they say that people, my people, the Nigerians, we're the corrupt ones, eh?

Now, I feel like we're going to get onto your subject here. Fortunately, you won't be without entertainment on the island.
Starting point is 00:41:32 The plane's entertainment system continues to work, but just your luck, it only has two working settings. One is your least favourite film of all time, and the other is your least favourite song. Now, I can tell you're someone that likes films. I am. Right? Yes. Okay. A few of your analogies in there make me think you like

Starting point is 00:42:16 Pornhub most nights purely for research reasons I like to make sure I know what I'm getting into, so to speak. Am I doing this right? Okay.
Starting point is 00:42:29 Yeah. But Fifty Shades. I'm stuck on an island. Fifty Shades. All of the hype around this, the book, the movie, I thought it was going to be people getting their backs broken.
Starting point is 00:42:43 It was going to be like, women were getting so moistened in the thighs. It's talking like Spartacus, you know, they moistened at the thighs at the thought of Fifty Shades of Grey. But then you watch it. All that was was pride and
Starting point is 00:42:57 prejudice, right? In this day and age. They both like each other. But he couldn't smash her back then because those were the times but now he can and also it's an abuse ain't he her fucking boss where was all the hashtag me too chicks then
Starting point is 00:43:13 he's her boss next thing you know he's got her fucking tied up doing all sorts of blah blah all these women who say that they protest they don't like this stuff if I was your boyfriend and I wanted to do the stuff this guy's doing All these women who say that they protest, they don't like this stuff. If I was your boyfriend and I wanted to do the stuff this guy's doing to his secretary or assistant,
Starting point is 00:43:32 you wouldn't want to do it. No. But here you are getting gassed up by watching Hugh fucking Grant Jr. Yeah. Roll around with some other chick. Yeah, it's true. What's it about? i don't know the dude like the guy bangs his secretary that's it and he sold hundreds of millions of books
Starting point is 00:43:54 like is there a thing though like he's meant to like do some like there's like i don't know i haven't seen it and i clearly don't know. But isn't there like some sexy mind games and shit? Possibly. I don't know. The way it got about as sexy is she walked into a room and found on the back of a cutout of a cardboard carton, be my girlfriend. Tick box, yes or no.
Starting point is 00:44:25 He didn't have no game. He was just rich. Right, yeah, yeah, yeah. He was rich. tick box yes or no but what so okay he didn't have no game he was just rich right yeah yeah he was rich he could have just given her a fucking Ferrari
Starting point is 00:44:31 and she would have dropped her knickers mate that would have been it let's go let's do this so it's like if you want something sexy right
Starting point is 00:44:38 this isn't where you should go Pornhub Pornhub yeah get into Pornhub that's what we all want isn't it otherwise why is everybody watching it That's what we all want, isn't it? Otherwise, why is everybody watching it?
Starting point is 00:44:47 That's what my friend said about Love Island. He was just like, do you love it? I love Love Island. My friend was like, no, but my friend was like, look, Love Island, you have to go through listening to them talk the whole time. If you want to see sexy people get it on just go straight to porn hub do you know what i mean see right see it's like why watch them walking around and talking but you love it it's it cracks me up because yeah i look i'm more entertained by yes
Starting point is 00:45:17 the psychology behind yeah yeah yeah all of these people who in their own worlds and social circles yeah are quite clearly the apex predator in terms of physical physicality physical attributes right they are the top all of them are the hot one in their group of friends definitely yeah yeah and they're used to getting wherever town city they're from they get all the chicks they get all the guys yeah the footballers the models they get whoever yeah yeah right and what the reason i use these specific professions is because having someone, if you've got a better job based around education, that's not a big deal to them. I saw one of the girls say to the doctor Alex last year, who was just, you could tell they were like a dishy doctor. I'll be honest, spoiler alert, guys.
Starting point is 00:46:02 Doctors do not look like George Clooney in the real fucking world alex is about as good as it gets for a doctor yeah yeah right to these people he's he's a middleman he's nobody no yeah he's not getting no love so one girl turned to him and said there was a new girl coming in and she wanted to have a date with alex and a girl gave him a pep talk and went yeah you know let her know she said let her know that you work out that you've got a bit
Starting point is 00:46:27 about you none of that doctor stuff and I was like wow like that was a bad thing to do no one gives a shit
Starting point is 00:46:37 in there that you've spent seven years in medical school and that you can string a coherent sentence together no
Starting point is 00:46:43 can you do fucking 50 crunches? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. So all of these people then get pitted against each other for the affections of other beautiful people. And they cannot handle the rejection. They're not used to it.
Starting point is 00:46:58 It really fucks their shit up. Right? That's what the beauty of it is. That's where the entertainment how people claw and fight and scrap and kick because they're not used to being told no i want her instead of you i'm gonna look at it in a whole new perspective i think because you've been part of the reality tv world you look at it slightly different well yeah i mean yeah okay yeah from from a production point yeah i can definitely
Starting point is 00:47:25 see how stuff is not how you know it seems in to but also that as well and i suppose and the side but i've always been quite a psychological person anyway but yeah but that has added something to it definitely but then when you so with this right there are producers that are like rehash that conversation again right and they've said that that's what happens, right? You know it's augmented reality. But when you did it, that stuff didn't happen. No, no, no, no. People wanted to shank each other up. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:51 If it was prison, I'd have had someone bringing drugs in their bum hole, you know what I mean? Delivered to me. You know what I mean? I'd have been like somebody smuggling cigarettes and yeah, you know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah. People would have been, yeah, what, you want this? Okay, you're going to have to sleep with, yo, go sleep with whoever or whatever. Yeah and yeah yeah yeah yeah people would have been yeah what you want
Starting point is 00:48:05 this okay you're gonna sleep with yo go sleep with whoever or whatever yeah yeah yeah you know i mean i would have been that guy in there and it was just right yeah hustling yeah i mean no no what i mean yeah i mean that was how bad it could get in there okay no without before anyone steps in yeah yeah no there was i can't say for what's happened in the last few years and how it's switched towards Instagram people and stuff. It seems clearly... It's different now. It's so different now. Back then, you fuckers get on with it.
Starting point is 00:48:32 If someone dies, then walk it off. Right, yeah, yeah. That kind of shit. We're not... Whatever happens is none of our business. But then they still stuck you in the most psychologically challenging environment that they've ever fucking scripted. The walls were at mad angles. The ceilings were lowered right there was no locks on doors it
Starting point is 00:48:48 was mirrors invasively everywhere yeah there was no clocks anywhere so you didn't know what time of day it was yeah you know i mean you get waking up with really invasive fucking music and alarms and all these things do you know i mean so okay and plus you didn't get to speak to your anybody from the outside world for your duration it's not like now where
Starting point is 00:49:09 or on these other shows we get a phone call from mum and dad oh we're still alive you know yeah look here's your cat Reggie send a letter
Starting point is 00:49:16 yeah yeah yeah give me a break yeah yeah you know what I mean so yeah Love Island it's a it is a cracker of a show okay I will watch it
Starting point is 00:49:23 I will watch it this time with a different perspective okay so your film choice is going to be 50 shades of gray yeah for the bullshit and what about song for my song choice anything recorded by 80s 90s allegedly hip-hop slash rap band the beastie boys yes i saw this go on please is it just me or were they crap nobody nobody and this is the thing back in those days nobody wanted to buy a black hip-hop like black people like actual like hip-hop i'm not saying it's a colour thing but the most predominantly like rappers were black people Run DMC
Starting point is 00:50:08 were the biggest and they only blew after they'd done a tune with Aerosmith and everyone was like oh we can listen to the Beast to Run DMC now
Starting point is 00:50:16 because they've done a tune with Aerosmith they must be alright and then right but the Beastie Boys were coming out
Starting point is 00:50:23 with absolute I remember being because I was a proper little boy when MTV first started. And they used to ram Beastie Boys, like tunes, down everyone's gullets. Beastie Boys, was it Intergalactic? I didn't know what that was about. Right to party. I just thought it was meant to be funny. So I kind of didn't mind it.
Starting point is 00:50:44 But then I realised these guys were being serious. party i just thought it was meant to be funny so i kind of didn't mind it yeah yeah but then i realized these guys were being serious like they're supposed to be some proper legends and they're crap like it's weird when you see them now and you just think wow do you know i mean they're there in like just looking like old dads but they're looking like the OGs of this shit like yeah hip hop legends rap beast they're crap yeah their tunes were crap
Starting point is 00:51:09 people only bought it because there was white guys rapping and it was this bad thing rap but we can buy these guys music
Starting point is 00:51:18 but then we're not gonna let NWA do their thing oh yeah I mean or Public Enemy but Beastie Boys, and obviously it was inoffensive,
Starting point is 00:51:27 but I just think their tunes, I don't even mind it. I don't care about anything other than the fact their tunes were crap. And why did they make so much fucking money? Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:36 I mean, like, Fight For Your Right To Party is not a good song. No. I mean, at the time, fun, fair, but actually, put that in the spectrum of rap music
Starting point is 00:51:46 and that is on the lowest rung, man. And it's made the most money, probably. Yeah. What the fuck? If there had been a group of black guys doing that, that tune would never have seen the light of day. They'd have been like, we can't sell this crap. Go and shoot someone and then write a record about it.
Starting point is 00:52:04 True. You know what I mean? But these guys were crap that's the record that radio stations are still playing yeah
Starting point is 00:52:11 I mean I love Vanilla Ice love Vanilla Ice that was my guy you know what I mean he's he's rapping he's doing his yeah

Starting point is 00:52:48 of all the animals. Which animal is it and why? I'd say cheetahs. A cheetah? Yeah. Go on, why? Because there's something sexy about cheetahs.
Starting point is 00:52:56 Do you know what I mean? Yeah. There's something sexy about cheetahs, isn't there? And I can't bang Theresa May or my dad or fucking the Night King. Are you about to say this?

Starting point is 00:54:03 Get Tom Cruise in it Yeah I want to see how it gets at the end of this fucking film yeah i mean this is yeah this is bad you've done so well thank you so much vick so cheaters gonna be animal choice vick tell people about the rival show the rival show aka the most professionally unprofessional podcast it started off as a whatsapp group right okay that's cool friends throughout my whole life amazing right and the conversations we have in there as you could imagine i am but one cog in there yeah some of the funniest
Starting point is 00:54:37 and most inappropriate banter you will ever hear between people who have known each other for their whole lives right and we were like we should write a script about some of this stuff or somebody was like maybe we should get the transcripts and put them online and we were like people like no no no because some some of the stuff that gets said in there is a little bit really you know i mean okay yeah i mean we got jobs in it yeah yeah people don't find some of the banter funny so it was like okay and in the end it was like why don't we do a podcast and it was one one of my friends wanted to do
Starting point is 00:55:06 a meeting about starting a sports podcast okay and then my co-host on the rival show Merv right he decided to
Starting point is 00:55:14 just be difficult and say no I'm gonna make a rival show for this right and that's literally how the show why the show's called
Starting point is 00:55:20 Rival Show okay so it started off as a sports show so anybody who then tunes in off the back of this blisteringly scintillating appearance from myself right into the rival show do it people trust me do it yeah you won't be disappointed do not start from the first one two whatever because it started with literally just sports it seems it was very
Starting point is 00:55:41 very very serious and then people were like yeah well what if we don't like sports you know some people don't want to hear an hour and a half of us talking proper analytical football breakdowns like if i was like if people want to hear this don't watch fucking match of the day yeah and what see gary liniker and not not free not free over over the old guys sitting in the living room talking about footy right no no yeah and then we created a segment called toilet of the week okay
Starting point is 00:56:08 which where we find either a person or a group or some situation that's happened throughout the week where somebody has made a right tit of themselves
Starting point is 00:56:15 yeah yeah and we just absolutely cane them right from research we then found out that Pete that was everyone's favourite segment
Starting point is 00:56:22 right so then we thought okay so then we expanded that segment and then we added in a news section. Do you know what I mean? There's other little segments as well. Nice. It's a proper,
Starting point is 00:56:33 it's just inappropriate banter, topical discussion and usually someone getting the arse ripped out. And a lot of the time it's me. Do you know what I mean? There's lots of running jokes at my expense on this show. Is there? There are. There's lots of running me do you know what I mean there's lots of running jokes at my expense on this show
Starting point is 00:56:45 there are there's lots of running jokes you know what I mean and if people don't know I'm the heartbeat of that motherfucker you're ripping your own heart out here
Starting point is 00:56:52 suicide you know what I mean but you know obviously anyone at home suffering from suicide you know so it's very serious subjects
Starting point is 00:56:58 funny enough the last Rival Show episode we did last week was actually quite was probably the most serious of all because we've had a couple of friends who have you know committed suicide so we spoke about that and asking people to just you know if you're going through things just talk to someone you know before it's too late and then after that we got on with ripping people's lives apart in the public eye
Starting point is 00:57:18 usually donald trump and um you know theresa may who i reckon she smells like strippers perfume i never think about what she's might smell like i mean strippers perfume and asparagus for breath that's perfect hot asparagus well we made it an hour without that do you know what I mean we have yeah we got a bit phlegmy there no it's good thank god this ain't being filmed it's not
