You get an extra 90-minute episode every single Wednesday, pure, unadulterated, unfiltered Have A Word bullshit with me, Adam Carl, and to a lesser extent, the Fintern. It's behind a paywall. It gets a little bit loose. It gets a little bit squirrely. It's some of our favourite podcasting
Starting point is 00:00:23 because Adam says all sorts of shit that can't go on the proper internet. Once you sign up, you get the full back catalogue of all the Patreon exclusive we've done every week since May 2019. You also get to watch the now legendary Lockdown Lock-In where we got absolutely shit-faced and recorded it. Oh my god, it got messy.
Starting point is 00:00:40 And any more Lockdown Lock-Ins will only be on Patreon. Once you subscribe, you also get early access to the public episodes. The public get it on Monday, you'll get it on Saturday morning. And there's discounts on merch, discounts on live tickets. It's an amazing deal. We're dead proud of it. This Patreon has got us through one of the worst years of our career, but we also think it's a fucking dealio.
Starting point is 00:00:59 Sign up at patreon.com slash haveawordpod. You will not regret it. Now let's crack on. If you're good at something, never do it for free. Now, I'm getting the word nuts. Hey, I'm not doing it for Dan. I'm not doing it for Carl. I'm doing it for Finn.
Starting point is 00:01:20 Every day. Who the fuck is that guy? Char, upset me, nasty bitch. Oh, Jesus. Don Oh, jeez. Don't chat to me! I can see fumes coming off your pum-pum look like petrol station. Shut up! Disgusting!
Starting point is 00:01:34 Coming to you from the soon-to-be world-famous Havawad Studios. Hidden away in the scenic hills of sunny Runcorn, England. These are the funniest leads in the podcast game. Adam Rowe, Dan Nightingale and Sensei Carl with full HD video episodes on YouTube. It has to be. Have a word. What's happening everyone, Adam here. Just before we start, I've got to let you know
Starting point is 00:02:19 that I am going to be at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival for three nights only, the 17th, 18th and 19th of August at the Pleasantance Rear Courtyard doing a work in progress of my tour show that I'm taking on tour next year. If you go to pleasant.co.uk and just search Adam Rowe or if you just click the link in the YouTube description or wherever you get your podcasts,
Starting point is 00:02:38 it'll take you to tickets. Now, because of the way it's set up, there's only room for 150 people. A lot of those tickets have already been sold already. You've got to book in groups of like two, four, six. They're sold in tables. If all the tables of two are sold out, try and get a table of four and bring a couple more mates.
Starting point is 00:02:56 Yeah, if I could do it differently, I would, but it's nothing to do with me, really. Please come. Please come and watch me do some stand-up on the 17th, 18th, and 19th of August at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Three nights only. No other shows will be added up there. It's just these three. And I'll see some of you there. And if you're not coming, fuck you and your whole family.
Starting point is 00:03:14 All right, lads. Before we start this week's episode, I'm here to tell you about our latest sponsor, CoinCorner.com. Now, they are one of the longest running exchanges for cryptocurrency in Europe. And they're one of the best ways to buy and sell Bitcoin here in the UK. If you don't know what Bitcoin is, it's the number one cryptocurrency on the planet. It's been around for over a decade. And it's going mainstream. It's in the news every day. Celebrities like Tom Brady are tweeting about it.
Starting point is 00:03:40 El Salvador's made it legal tender. If you want to get involved in the cryptocurrency game, the best way in our opinion to do that is to go to coincorner.com slash wordpod. You go there, they know we've sent you. You're getting in the cryptocurrency game. They know we sent you. Everyone's winning. You're helping our sponsors. They're helping us. That's how the pod game works, okay? That's what we want you to do. Now, we've got to say this. When you invest in cryptocurrency, it's like stocks and shares.
Starting point is 00:04:09 Your capital is at risk. Don't invest anything you can't afford to lose. Be safe. Don't be a fucking dickhead. Now, let's get back to the pod.

Starting point is 00:09:05 Has COVID made you more dull? He didn't pass it to me. I wasn't ready. But you're all right, COVID kids. Yeah, it was shite. Obviously, there was one night that I went to hospital. So when I first got it, Freddie Quinn said, a good bit of advice is to get an oximeter.
Starting point is 00:09:25 Yeah. And, you know, it's that thing that you stick your finger in when you go to A&E, and they check your heart rate and your blood oxygen levels. And he was like, if that drops, then, you know, it's time to ring an ambulance, or you can just monitor. If you feel like you're struggling to breathe, if your oxygen level's sound, you'll calm down.
Starting point is 00:09:40 But you had a good week of it not really being a problem. You tested positive, and it was a while and you were like I'm not deteriorating particularly yeah next minute you're like I didn't want to stress you out lads but last night
Starting point is 00:09:51 well I coughed up a bit of like pink phlegm mama like that that could be blood back and you don't want to be coughing up blood famously it's like not ideal
Starting point is 00:10:00 you know just checking your diet for beetroot nah I'm fucked yeah yeah and then Tim Canary said to me said to me
Starting point is 00:10:10 check your oximeter and it had gone to like 90% that's like 10% lower than 100 Carl can you just check that
Starting point is 00:10:19 so it was 100 as a seamstress can you work that out 90% yeah yeah 10% lower so he said to ring paramedics did So it was 100. As a seamstress, can you work that out? 90%. Yeah, yeah. 10% lower. So, he said to ring paramedics.
Starting point is 00:10:29 Did. They talk about an hour and a half to come despite saying it'd be a maximum of 45 minutes. That's twice as long. Yeah. Double. Alright, let's privatise the cunt. Go on.
Starting point is 00:10:38 I tell you what, right, it is something that, you know, not a lot of people say out loud, right? And it's not the fault of the staff. The NHS can be a little bit shit sometimes.
Starting point is 00:10:50 Wow. You've just noticed. God bless them. They're trying. They're trying. They're trying. That night was genuinely the worst night of my life. Wow.
Starting point is 00:11:03 And my mum is dead. And we need to remember that. Yeah. And it was worse in the hospital. Yeah. That was a doddle because it was happening to someone else. It's just me. It's fucking awful.
Starting point is 00:11:13 Honestly, like, it would have been no less comfortable sleeping on a ladder compared to the bed that they put me on. Right. It was one of those ones that's in, like, a GP surgery, where it can, like like fold up and whatever but it's like it's like sleeping on that but with like fucking
Starting point is 00:11:28 nuts and bolts in the middle of it and and other people on the ward no I was in my own little sort of cupboard did you have your own
Starting point is 00:11:35 cupboard cupboard Harry Potter essentially it was a cupboard they gave me they put me on that and they were like
Starting point is 00:11:41 it's a five to seven hour wait and I got really lucky because there was a girl who recognised me who worked there, the nurse. Yes, mate, that's what you want. She come in and she gave me a pillow and a little blankie. That was like four hours in and took me bloods and she was like, you are going to be waiting.
Starting point is 00:11:58 Are you in a cupboard at this point? A cupboard with a bed and a table in it, yeah. But there's no blankie or pillow? No. Right. So I'd been there for like four and a table in it yeah but there's no blankie or pillow no right so I'd been there for like four and a half hours I was so unbelievably
Starting point is 00:12:09 exhausted but could not sleep because it was just impossible like it was so unbelievably painful this bed and
Starting point is 00:12:16 and COVID makes you achy and uncomfortable oh yeah so she come in at half four took me bloods and gave me some intravenous paracetamol but then
Starting point is 00:12:25 I was left then for another like seven hours like didn't see a doctor for a full 12 hours did you get like any scram or anything nothing
Starting point is 00:12:33 like it was awful and it's just you because no one's allowed to be with you yeah and at one point I felt really sorry for this woman
Starting point is 00:12:40 I told her I needed the toilet she had to bring me a little commode and I had to poo in it I had to poo in it. I had to poo in a bowl. A bedpan or a commode?
Starting point is 00:12:50 What's the difference? A commode's like a wheelchair with a hole in it. A bedpan's... That one. You pooed in a commode. With a little cardboard poo commode. But like,
Starting point is 00:12:57 it's so shallow that I had to like really pace the poo because I was like, if I let this go at the speed that I normally let poos go, I'm going to paint
Starting point is 00:13:04 the whole fucking cupboard disgusting like it was so shallow if i had just let the ferocity out why couldn't you go to the toilet because you're not allowed because you got covered all right you can't be fucking pooing covered all over the hospital. It's true. There's shit everywhere. Oh my God, it's COVID shit. You can tell. Oh, new clean chicken mode. There's a woman who was really, really rude to me.
Starting point is 00:13:35 And to be honest with you, she kind of deserved it. I know, but you know, she's cleaning up shit. She's cleaning up COVID plop. She's not going to be like, good morning. Was she coming, this was, she coming to see me?
Starting point is 00:13:49 This is what we play for. Sorry, she's coming to see me at half 10 in the morning. I've been there since one o'clock. So this is like nine and a half hours in. Check that. Half an hour,
Starting point is 00:13:59 nine and a half hours, yeah. She's got that checked independently by a seamstress. Oh no, not a seamstress. And she's coming in she went she had like a real sort of
Starting point is 00:14:07 short hair proper attitude on her and look I know they're doing a hard job I'm not having a go short hair God said it all didn't he
Starting point is 00:14:15 I mean we're hinting at lesbian we've not said it we've not said it you know I don't know if I don't know if they're allowed to wear
Starting point is 00:14:22 Doc Martens nurses but this one did she had a biker, leathers. In fact, I'm not sure she worked there. I think she might have just been holding a sandwich box that Adam shat in, and that explains her mood. She went, when did you have your chest x-ray? And I went, I haven't had it yet.
Starting point is 00:14:40 I literally haven't seen a doctor since I got here. She went, I know. You're not going to see a doctor till you see a doctor and I went because I'd lost my patience at this point so I went I know how seeing doctors works 1-0 this isn't my
Starting point is 00:14:56 first canary based rodeo she went you won't see a doctor till you see a doctor you can't just turn up at A&E and just get seen. I wanted to go. You can. That's what happens. Oh, you should have said you'd spoke to the canary.
Starting point is 00:15:13 He doesn't work at that hospital. You were in a psych ward in five minutes. Speaking to the canary all night. He said to come here. One of our patrons is a canary. Dr. Canary. And he said that I'm alright.
Starting point is 00:15:27 What does she mean? You can't just turn up at A&E and expect to see a doctor. Well, it's not going to happen at Halfords, is it dickhead? Why, you know, come on. You can't just turn up at a swimming bath and expect to get wet.
Starting point is 00:15:43 Fucking twat. Now I'm riding on out of here with your poo sample. Like a nice swimmer. Right. Wow. She sounds like a large twat. Yeah. And then I got my chest X-rayed and they basically went.
Starting point is 00:16:04 Are we seeing the end of this podcast I don't know by the end of this Adam's going to be pooing in a commode in the corner yeah and they went
Starting point is 00:16:11 yeah it's definitely COVID and I was like 11 hours for that how do you know you don't need another test I've got your sample
Starting point is 00:16:23 yeah not good in this and then what you got to go on they gave me steroids How do you know? You don't need another test. I've got your sample. Yeah, not good. In this. And then what? You got to go home. They gave me steroids. Oh, that's why you're getting fucking jazzed.
Starting point is 00:16:35 Adam, you all right? I was a COVID fucking nightmare, mate. Nearly died. But look at these fucking arms. And antibiotics. And sent me home. Genuinely a bit worried about you. I don't think you were ready for us having this much fun.
Starting point is 00:16:52 Honestly, I'm glad Sam is not here to see this because she'd be like, right, this is over. Get Mulholland in. Oh God. So that was your night in hospital. Did it just get... So the night before,
Starting point is 00:17:04 the day before before were you just getting worse and worse or was your health anxiety kicking in i was fine the only reason laura went he's had a panic attack he's had a panic he's got he's got in his own head and he's had a panic attack i was like i sort of thought if you've got the asthma and then the covid and you could sort of cook yourself into it no i was doing quite well with me health anxiety and stuff and then the COVID and you could sort of cook yourself into it. No, I was doing quite well with my health anxiety and stuff. And then I just had a really bad coughing fit. Like most of me coughs have been that. Right.
Starting point is 00:17:34 And I had this massive coughing fit that, you know, when you cough so much you throw up. Yeah. But I hadn't ate for like two and a half days. There was nothing to throw up. You can't get rid of the cough, can you? It's just like, won't go. So it was phlegm, but the phlegm was pink,
Starting point is 00:17:49 and I was like, ugh. Could be heart failure, if anything. Could be. That's a heart failure. It's a big cough. Yeah. If you get heart failure, you cough up blood, and it's pink.
Starting point is 00:18:03 Did Google say that? Yeah. Thought so Now A word from our new sponsors Rennie I'll deal with it For heart failure
Starting point is 00:18:10 Yeah yeah I'll deal with it That's the first thing you think of This is Probably heartburn Have an antacid Heart failure Rennie's
Starting point is 00:18:23 I would I would If I started having a heart attack I'd be like This is probably just a bit of heartburn would if I started having a heart attack I'd be like this is probably just a bit of heartburn I thought I was having a heart attack on the way here today but I just needed a bussy
Starting point is 00:18:30 I was just a bit hungry well 999 we'll get a meal deal one of the two I have to stop at the spa so how do you get checked out of the old COVID ward like what does Sam have to do?
Starting point is 00:18:45 I wasn't on a ward. I was in one of the cupboards in A&E. Do they not have a COVID ward? They might do if you get admitted. You've got to see a doctor for that. Properly. You're in the wrong place for that, kid. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:58 I was just in a cupboard. Being, like, it wasn't a cupboard. It was a room. But it was a small one that looked like a cupboard and then you got out went home
Starting point is 00:19:08 and then you've gradually been feeling better getting hench on steroids yeah watched every Harry Potter 1, 2, 3, 4 all the
Starting point is 00:19:16 yeah all the numbers yeah and feeling good started feeling better feeling alright yeah it's just a cough
Starting point is 00:19:22 still in my head then and I'm nervous about coughing around people because then people are like, has he got COVID? And I'm like, I haven't. I've just had it. And that doesn't calm people down. That's just people not understanding what's, like, if you go on the government website,
Starting point is 00:19:33 I would have thought, like, we did it to Lauren Patterson. She turned up with a cough and we were like, but if you are genuinely out of isolation and you've done your time, you're not, you can't give it anyone. But the cough can linger for ages, can't it? Yeah. Let's fucking hope so, because I do not want to go back. And Finn, I think, is still in there.
Starting point is 00:19:55 Yeah? I'm just wiped out. I've not had a cough, really, at all. I didn't have those symptoms. I just had, like, flu. 22 years old and it's put you on your back side. Have you had a jab? I'd had one jab as well.
Starting point is 00:20:11 Welsh jab. I'd advise people go and get vaccinated. Don't. What do you reckon, Carl? I reckon it's exacerbated by smoking jazz cabbage. Have you been on the marijuana cigarettes? So I will be honest,
Starting point is 00:20:25 when I was feeding... Oh, here we go! When I was feeding... Disgusting! Disgusting! Come on. When I was feeding a bit lower, or like just rough,
Starting point is 00:20:36 that was perking me up. I think anyone that has ever had that before can probably attest to it kind of making you feel not there. So you kind of... So you had COVID so you had covid you are i feel shit i'm gonna only one medicine i'm gonna blaze up those were my words to my brother he was like how long before you blaze and i said i already am i had one in my hand you sound cool
Starting point is 00:20:59 as fuck julie stoned as fuck if he couldn't see that julie you're gonna blaze it's here you and your brother sound cool as fuck but you both live with your mom in real no no no i texted him all right right yeah when you're gonna blaze up son you know i'm gonna blaze covid ain't stopping me blazing smoke weed every day keep it down finn keep it down, Finn! Keep it down. All right. I don't know what that was, but... Was that meant to be my mum? Yeah. I can't do Northweilian. Northweilian?
Starting point is 00:21:32 Neither can I, really. That's Northweilian, I think. Northweilian, yeah. Is it? Does Northweilian accent sound like that? Oh, yeah. All the farmers, they talk like this. I can do an impression of Kiri
Starting point is 00:21:44 doing an impression of the people she went to school with. That can do an impression of Kiri doing an impression of the people she went to school with. That's it? That's about right. That's about right? Yes. Do you like smack? I live in fucking Carnarvon.
Starting point is 00:21:52 Of course I like smack. I didn't think North Welsh people had much accents, really. I just thought they were just like, there. Right. You know what I mean? What? That's just Rhyl. Rhyl is very it's like
Starting point is 00:22:05 a mongrel town it's just a bit of everywhere so that's kind of given me this neutral nowhere accent right
Starting point is 00:22:14 but if you keep going five minutes down the road you're into full inbred farmer territory and they all talk like this and they all talk like that that happened in Ballard actually when I went with Sam
Starting point is 00:22:23 yeah Ballard they all talk like that yeah is Aberystwyth a bit more yeah that it's happening in ballard actually when i went with sam yeah they all talk like that yeah is that a bit more uh yeah so because that's west wales in it is that a bit more singy song it literally gets less nasally the further down the country you go and then you get to like barry island south south south and then it's gavin and stacy and that's the welsh impression everyone does yeah yeah and that's the welsh impression i've been doing to north wailing people i wonder where the to north walian people i wonder where the last welsh accent is i wonder if there's like a little tiny island between wales and
Starting point is 00:22:49 ireland where there's just like six people with like dead unbelievably sing-songy welsh accents because you've gone past like there's a welsh community in argentina sorry yeah no we're not letting that go what did you just say do you think there's an island in between wales and ireland a little undiscovered who knows if we'll ever how can we know you haven't checked how would we know how would we know you don't know fucking 50 miles straight of water whether there is an undiscovered people of half welsh half irish people that have never been passed by one of the 10 million ferries that have crossed there. Maybe they just hide when boats are going past
Starting point is 00:23:31 so they don't get seen. Hide in the water, under the water. Just quilts. Fucking hell, boys. There's a ferry. Is that your Welsh Irish? Get in the water, quilt. Right, do a Welsh Irish right now.
Starting point is 00:23:42 I'd be so fucking great. I know, that was great. You could call them Irish. Oh, Jesus, no. I do a Welsh-Irish right now. I'll be so fucking impressed. I know, that was great. You can call them Irish. Oh, Jesus, no. I tell you, I can see a boat coming. It's a beautiful one. You've just got to change it halfway through the fucking... Code switch.
Starting point is 00:23:53 Maybe they're getting, like, TV signals from both Ireland and mainland Britain, and they're looking at, like, stuff and going, look, shit, there are the six of us. We're sound. We've got a farm. We've got bread. We don't need any noise with the farm. Adam, put under it's six of us. We're sound. We've got a farm. We've got bread. We don't need any oil. Always with the farm.
Starting point is 00:24:06 Adam. That is vital. Farmers. Oil. Farmers. Small island. Quilts. Invisible quilts.
Starting point is 00:24:13 How many Harry Potters did you watch? How many Harry Potters did you watch? A whole weird Welsh-Irish fucking... Quickly, a theory. I think it's possible. There might be. Yeah, could be. You don't know the Disney
Starting point is 00:24:25 No, I don't I haven't sailed the Irish Sea more than five times All of it Oh no, exactly You have not done that No, exactly God, let's hope they invent some kind of satellite one day That we'll be able to see the sea
Starting point is 00:24:39 No I'm not saying we don't know the island's there I'm saying maybe we just assume it's uninhabited Right So your version of the lost city Atlantis Is some weird Welsh-Irish farmland No, I'm not saying we don't know the islands there. I'm saying maybe we just assume it's uninhabited. Right. So your version of the lost city Atlantis is some weird Welsh-Irish farmland where they've gone, fucking hell, let's hide.
Starting point is 00:24:52 We've got great bread. That sounds about right to me. Right, it sounds fucking spot on. Spot on. Coronavirus has had more side effects than I think we're giving it credit for. What? What? What?
Starting point is 00:25:07 What about the islands between Wales and Ireland? Dr Canary has given me a prescription of DMT and I've taken it. Tuck it in a cupboard. Shat on a wizard. Oh my God. We don't know where the last Welsh person is The last Welsh person Yeah where does he live
Starting point is 00:25:28 Holyhead Haverford West But like There's gotta be a last one There's gotta be a famous one Yeah like the last house Oh How annoying would that be
Starting point is 00:25:40 If like it was some guy Right at the far bit of Haverford West who had a house and then some cunt called Rodri was like, I'm going to fucking move slightly past you. And you're like, where are you going? I want to be the last Welshman. Fuck off.
Starting point is 00:25:53 That's my job. And then you're just teetering towards the edge. Do you reckon there's anywhere in the world where like someone's been born and they've just got an unexplained accent? Like let's say there's someone in like Peru, but they're just got an unexplained accent. Like, let's say there's someone in, like, Peru, but they're just Italian.
Starting point is 00:26:08 Right. So their parents are Peruvian. I mean, could you tell the difference? Long line of Peruvian. And then this baby's first wife was just, oh, it's the meatballs. Too weird. Italian-American.
Starting point is 00:26:21 Because that wasn't Italian. What? Hey, I'm born in Rome. Oh! I got fucking meatballs there Bellissima What does that mean I haven't got a fucking clue
Starting point is 00:26:30 I imagine it's great titties The first way There's a question Oh You literally did Joey from Friends As Italian Well it's the
Starting point is 00:26:42 The meatballs With a D speaking in English well I don't know the Italian so I can't do that can I
Starting point is 00:26:49 well you know one word bellissimo fiorentina that's it a paolo di canio a locatelli
Starting point is 00:27:00 if you say first words a paolo di canio bonjour no it's it's classic isn isn't it? Whenever you run out of the words of Italian,
Starting point is 00:27:08 like spaghetti, bolognese, pasta, penne arrabbiata, Roberto Baggio. Good play. Imagine that. Right. Imagine that. Imagine. Are you watching that? But it's like the brain injuries, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:27:24 Or they're the good ones. They're the great ones. When someone like falls off a motorcycle. Do they have to be good at the accent before? What? Do you know if you had a brain injury? You're famously bad at. No, but I don't think anyone's charting like,
Starting point is 00:27:39 like Susan was in a car crash. And then when she woke up, she was like, hello. I got really bad hair. Oh, the car just came out of nowhere. Susan, stop doing that. You're from Norfolk. I know.
Starting point is 00:27:55 But now I'm from China. But she's like, I am from Norfolk. I'm from Norwich. But she's doing the Chinese accent. I don't think anyone would be like, to be fair, Susan always was shit at the Chinese accent. And we were like, stop being racist in this restaurant.
Starting point is 00:28:09 Are you leaving me hanging on this? Absolute pack of cuffs. Whoa. We're not leaving you anywhere. I'm just trying not to laugh so that I don't cough. I'm taking it in. But they do. They wake up from a trauma,
Starting point is 00:28:24 like a brain injury. and then they've like yeah chinese foreign accent syndrome what is it what is it called it's called foreign accent syndrome it actually is called tom sagoda does a great routine about oh yeah amazing yeah it's called foreign accent syndrome it is uh where the patients develop speech patterns that are perceived as a foreign accent different to their native accent the one of the patterns that are perceived as a foreign accent, different to their native accent. The one of the women that you're... You know that's a real example, the one you're saying? Yeah, do you know what?
Starting point is 00:28:51 I've seen the Segura bit, and it's one of those bits that has sort of just, like, manoeuvred its way to the back of my mind. And as I was saying that, I was like, oh, this feels familiar. But she was from... Was she English? It's an Australian lady. Oh, it's English? it's an Australian lady
Starting point is 00:29:05 an Australian lady but with an Irish accent yeah but the English woman was Chinese and I've seen the video of her but it's not just like because when I first heard of her
Starting point is 00:29:16 I was like it's obviously just like damaged their speech and she says certain things you know that sound vaguely like they might be coming from a chinese person but she's got like the um do you know like the annotations of broken english from a chinese person yeah like steve mclaren when he got the fc20 job here it is oh my god for newsy
Starting point is 00:29:41 i'm logan tittle a british woman who went to sleep with a migraine woke up feeling like a completely different person. 38-year-old Sarah Caldwell was rushed to the hospital in 2010 because of severe episodic migraines. During her recovery, she woke up with a Chinese accent. She literally woke up, opened her mouth, and it was not her voice that came out. Oh my God, that is a bit Norfolk, isn't it? And a 55B sweet and sour chicken, Hong Kong style.
Starting point is 00:30:07 It's just been such a horrible thing to go through. She was diagnosed with foreign accent syndrome, a rare neurological condition with no clear cause. The Inquisitor reports others who have suffered from the same change in voice had severe migraines. I don't care about the stats, Plymouth. Talk to her. Just talk to her. Interior.
Starting point is 00:30:29 That's so sad. Oh. Yeah. Shut up, Musie. Come on, woman. Talk to her. Oh. Oh, French. experienced loss of vocabulary, but Caldwell is not alone in her struggle. 52-year-old Kay Russell, pictured here talking to Caldwell, woke up with a French accent after suffering a migraine as well. And singer George Michael says he woke up from a coma with a temporary West Country accent in 2012.
Starting point is 00:30:57 We hear the snippet of it anyway. Yeah, there is other videos that you can find of her, but she speaks in broken English. She doesn't go... It's not like she's going, I walk up with a Chinese foreign accent. She's going, I walk up, Chinese foreign accent. Like, she misses the syllables and the letter A,
Starting point is 00:31:18 because that's in our alphabet, but not... In our vernacular, but not theirs. She misses bits out the Chinese people would miss out it's so unbelievably funny how long does it last is it there forever
Starting point is 00:31:32 she's got it's a brain injury isn't it what would you like to wake up with if you could what if this happened to you
Starting point is 00:31:39 but you could choose the accent what accent would you choose Italian oh what am I doing here I'm just following up my fucking motorbike you call it i think it'd be ideal to just have a different scouse one let's not upset anybody what what southern scouse what if you woke up sounding a bit
Starting point is 00:31:58 birkenhead you'd be gutted wouldn't you you'd rather be southeast East Asian. Caribbean. Zambian. Do your Birkinet. Do your wool. Do your sort of... It's very hard. From Birkhead. Oh, yeah. Pimbao. Pimbao.
Starting point is 00:32:14 You would tell her, like, oh, my God! I sound terrible, but at least I don't sound like I'm from Brumbra. Yeah. I think it'd be quite funny to end up waking up with a
Starting point is 00:32:26 nondescript accent like that and just watching other people deal with me. Comedian Adam Rowe was in a cupboard in a hospital in Liverpool for over seven hours,
Starting point is 00:32:36 received steroid treatment for COVID-19 and woke up the next day speaking in an Indian accent. We interviewed Adam at his home adam thanks for speaking to newsy um has it affected your career at all some people think i'm taking the piss but i'm not taking the piss i can't help but talk like
Starting point is 00:32:59 this anymore it is very much a problem when i going to shops oh they are looking at me saying this is not what you sound like your face does not match your voice hey i that i there'd be a lot of jobs i would no longer go in if i were you like should we just go in that shop on the corner no probably go to tesco or sainsbury's i'm going to go to a bigger establishment. I'm going to use this as a service checkout. Adam, we're going for food tonight. Should we book a restaurant? What do you fancy? We'll eat in.
Starting point is 00:33:34 Where do you want to go? I'm thinking Chinese, Mexican, maybe burger place. Hey, wow. Why don't they just put voices on? Why doesn't she just do an impression of her old self that's sort of an old problem
Starting point is 00:33:50 she's not good at accents why doesn't she just do it because she'd have an English accent with a Chinese twang which is bananas
Starting point is 00:33:58 I'm not joking I've never wished for a brain injury on someone more then I'll tell him why can't I I don't know what I'm going to do. But I tell you what, I'm going to have to rewrite the first five minutes of this set.

And I'll just, I'll just soften off the edges okay all right so you say what you need to say about the og patreon thank you show august the 15th and i'm just going to try it in the little breaks just soften off the edges because i've felt via the whatsapp via the email responses you get in a little bit fucking annoyed it's not that I was getting annoyed, it's just that some of our followers are thick as pig shit.
Starting point is 00:38:27 But we appreciate them and we want to keep that Patreon. Fastest growing Patreon in the UK, possibly the world, and we're getting great numbers and we love you and want to retain you. Go on, Ed.
Starting point is 00:38:36 So, a lot of you are new to the podcast. If you are an OG, you'll know. When we first launched Patreon back in March 2020, there was no benefits to signing up. The only benefit you got was the promise of a free ticket
Starting point is 00:38:50 to a future live thank you show. Those tickets have... The ticket link has been sent out to all eligible bachelors and bachelorettes this week. So if you have not received an email with that ticket link and you signed up for Patreon before the end of May 2020, then email haveawordpod at gmail.com and just say, I haven't got my ticket link.
Starting point is 00:39:16 Tell us when you signed up, we'll check it. And if we've missed you off by mistake, then we'll send you the link. If you signed up from the 1st of June 2020 up until right now you're not eligible for one of those free tickets you won't be getting sent a link but there are going to be some spare tickets for this event and they're going to be on sale for 15 pounds each on friday the 6th of august at 10 a.m that includes a drink that includes a drink

So those tickets will go on sale on Patreon only on Friday, the 6th of August at 10 a.m. On the Monday following, if there's any tickets left, we'll then put them out to the public. That's what's going to happen. If one more person emails and goes, I haven't got my ticket link, I've been signed up for three weeks now, then I'm'm just gonna delete your pledge and block you on every social media you'll never get to listen to the podcast again you're all driving me mad okay but we appreciate you and it's great
Starting point is 00:40:14 being the fastest growing podcast patron in the uk and so stop being a little bit targeted in places a little bit it's a little bit. Where's my link? I signed up two days ago. Why don't I get free ticket? I'm sending an email. But we appreciate you. Thank you. Thanks for your support.
Starting point is 00:40:35 Just to recap, if you signed up before the end of May 2020. That's last year. That's last year. That's not this year. Over a year ago. It's different numbers. Then you should have a ticket link and if you don't
Starting point is 00:40:47 you need to email us before Thursday this week before Thursday the 5th of August because that is when that ticket link is going to expire after that
Starting point is 00:40:55 they're going on sale to Patreons and after it's been on sale to Patreons it's going on sale to the Muggles first person oh sorry go on
Starting point is 00:41:01 it's not an arbitrary line in the sand by the way because from that point before that point actually everyone that point, actually, everyone that signed up from Patreon got an extra episode every week. There was exclusive content from that point on. The people who signed up from mid-March through to mid-May,
Starting point is 00:41:16 if they hadn't signed up, that 450, 500 patrons, if they hadn't signed up, Adam and I would have had to find work. Like, everyone else i know in the comedy industry that didn't have some form of like patreon or like support from something else so many good comics had to hustle and find jobs and then this wouldn't be where it was so if you're like why do these get a thank you show it's because they kept the fucker afloat, helped us flourish, and by the middle of the summer... Out of the goodness of their wallet.
Starting point is 00:41:47 Yeah. They weren't getting anything for it. They weren't getting the extra episodes. They weren't getting early access. The Patreon structure that's in place now, that's been in place for a while, wasn't there when these people supported us. That's why they're getting free tickets,
Starting point is 00:41:58 and that's what they were always promised. We love you all. We really do. There'll be more thank you shows. London. We've got plans to do extra ones here, there and everywhere. We're not necessarily going to do a tour in the next sort of six months or whatever, but we might just cherry pick some one-off live shows.
Starting point is 00:42:14 We're also going to put more content on the Patreon. If you've signed up and you're like, oh, I feel like I've missed out on the OG thank you show, there's loads of opportunities coming up to see us live. At the start of the episode, you saw the Adams at the Edinburgh Festival. We'll be doing maybe one-man shows. And then there's extra content going on the Patreon. We've got the, well, some form of rap battle or roast.
Starting point is 00:42:35 We're going to be developing that. We've got some maybe recorded shows that we're going to put up there. And then maybe later in the year, locking extra content will be going up there. But for this one, it's just a very specific set of criteria to get the tickets.
Starting point is 00:42:49 And on Sunday the 19th of September, the Underbelly Festival sales. The Underbelly Festival in London, it sold out very quickly the first time we put it on sale. I believe as of right this second, there's about 50-60 tickets available Jesus Christ if you go to the
Starting point is 00:43:07 Underbelly Festival website and search have a word live you can book the remaining tickets there can we put a link

What do you want to do Wednesday? Do you want to get some food?
Starting point is 00:44:26 Who would you put on your comedy Mount Rushmore? Oh. Oh! Oh! Four, isn't it? Um. Men.
Starting point is 00:44:34 Four heads. Um. I'm only missing him out. Patrice O'Neill. Right. Um. You can have your own one, Dan, don't worry.
Starting point is 00:44:44 Richard Pryor. You can tell we're very American-based. Richard Pryor. You can tell we're really American-based. Chappelle now. Chappelle, okay. And... It's a black Rushmore.
Starting point is 00:45:14 And Bill. okay and it's a black rushmore and bill any come on you want to put oh billy red nuts on there for american comics yeah yeah right okay honorary mention andy parsons Andy Parsons. Well, that's very much appreciated, Adam. Andy Parsons. I watched it on YouTube. Someone tagged me in, and I thought that was a really nice compliment. Fuck me, that guy. Andy Parsons, obviously. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:38 Yeah. I mean... He's taking fucking... He's taking the money for parking. Yeah. Patrice O'Neill. Richard Pryor. he's taking fucking he's taking the money for parking yeah Patrice O'Neill, Richard Pryor I'd have Billy Connolly up there because for me
Starting point is 00:45:53 without him I don't know where we are as British comics I think his influence is so huge the audience with Billy Connolly is phenomenal and some of the stuff that I saw as a kid was just before I saw anyone else doing it.
Starting point is 00:46:10 And then you get to watch the old stuff that was fucking amazing. Him on Parkinson's. What? Him on Parkinson's? Parkinson. Him. Oh, dear. He does have Parkinson's, doesn't he?
Starting point is 00:46:23 Yeah. No. Oh dear. I've made myself sad. Oh dear. My Mount Rushmore is just Parkinson's sufferers. Michael J. Fox. Michael J. Fox.
Starting point is 00:46:39 Pele? No, Ali, sorry. Ali. Pele? You fucking hate Pele. Pele got Parkinson's. He's claimed all sorts of diseases that he hasn't got. And goals, cunt.
Starting point is 00:46:53 He's a fraud. Yeah, I know. You just have to prod Carl on a few things. But he's like, yeah, yeah, yeah. Pele, well, fuck off. So you've got... Billy Connolly is a master, isn't he? An absolute master.
Starting point is 00:47:06 Let's twist it then. Who's on your UK Rushmore? UK Rushmore. That's harder. UK Rushmore. Connolly's definitely on there. And are you talking what you think
Starting point is 00:47:17 everyone would accept? Because if you do your own personal Rushmore, you could be like, well, I personally think Nick Helm is amazing. Like,
Starting point is 00:47:24 that's not, that's not valid, is it? I think you've got to be able to argue that they are not only big to you, but that they've influenced comedy enough to be on Rushmore. Right, so Mount Rushmore is basically a side of a mountain that someone's chiseled
Starting point is 00:47:39 in what they perceive as the four greatest American presidents. So there's Lincoln, Washington, Obama, Reagan. And Reagan. Is that right? Reagan. I'm Nixon. the four what they perceive as the four greatest American presidents so there's Lincoln Washington Obama Reagan and Reagan is that right? Reagan
Starting point is 00:47:48 and Nixon Nixon's the I already mentioned doing the parking Nixon and he's taking the parking money yeah yeah
Starting point is 00:47:54 is that right? that seems right yeah Jilly Bean fucking American I'm gonna google it just so Roosevelt
Starting point is 00:48:03 FDR Do you reckon they'll ever like change it? Do you reckon they'll ever Not Teddy Roosevelt Franklin Roosevelt Washington
Starting point is 00:48:11 Lincoln and Jefferson Oh no it is Teddy Roosevelt Thomas Jefferson's coming home Oh Oh Oh
Starting point is 00:48:18 Oh here we go Oh Thomas Jefferson where do you know that from Adam? Fucking tell me Tell me where you know it from Is Hamilton on the wall? No he's not Wasn't president
Starting point is 00:48:30 Yeah he wasn't president He was the fourth American president Or was he? No he fucking wasn't They fucking built a mountain in it Do you reckon they'll ever change it? Do you reckon they'll ever like
Starting point is 00:48:41 Turn one of them into Obama or something? No Nope Can I just say It looks like Do you reckon they'll ever change it? Do you reckon they'll ever like turn one of them into Obama or something? No. Nope. Can I just say, it looks like Lincoln's like on his own and then the three are like a deformed, you know, like the- That's Tom Selleck.
Starting point is 00:48:57 You just made me stop for a minute. I'm going to ask, that's Tom fucking Selleck in the middle, isn't it? Thomas Jefferson. No, the one on the right is definitely Lincoln. Yeah. The one on the left is textbook George Washington. Yeah, but the one like third...
Starting point is 00:49:11 That's Tom Selleck. That's Tom Selleck. That's Tom Selleck dressed as Dracula. No, not Dracula, Frankenstein. And who's that in the middle? Modric. That's Luka Modric. And Luka Modric.
Starting point is 00:49:25 The Americans are like, fuck Jefferson. Luka Modric has done such a great job in midfield. Won the Ballon d'Or? He did, didn't he? He won the Ballon d'Or. Who the fuck is a borderline defensive midfielder and wins the Ballon d'Or at 32?
Starting point is 00:49:38 Good on her. Good on you. Right, so George Washington, Luka Modric, Tom Selleck, and Abraham Lincoln. Walking to a par. So who's on? Who's?
Starting point is 00:49:57 You can't unsee it. George Washington looks like he's just found out he's pissed off he's next to Luke Mondridge and Tom Selleck well Washington's a massive
Starting point is 00:50:10 Barcelona fan haven't it right so Connolly's there who's going here Dan British comic nah this is gonna get fucking hounded
Starting point is 00:50:20 but I Billy Connolly I don't think anyone predates Billy Connolly in terms of stand up we're not talking the history of all comedy are we? We're just talking stand up so I think Connolly's the starting point
Starting point is 00:50:35 Victoria Wood? Yeah maybe yeah I don't know I never loved she was great wasn't she but can't do it I don't know. I never loved... She was great, wasn't she? Can't do it. I won't do it. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:51:58 Tommy Cooper. Tommy Cooper. Sergio Busquets. Where's Peter Kay? Is he up there? He might. He's up there, but he's being defaced. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:13 By one or the other. Billy Connolly's leant over and wrote cunt right on his forehead. I mean, Peter Kay has to be there. He has to be. Lee Evans? Oh, I don't know. I don't know. I know he's so loved.
Starting point is 00:52:29 It's a pure stand-up, don't you? I know he's so loved, but I just don't think it was great stand-up. I know he was brilliant, he was popular, and he had tour after tour
Starting point is 00:52:40 after tour, but I just don't think it was brilliant stand-up. And I know that'll piss people off because they love him but Dave Allen Irish isn't he
Starting point is 00:52:50 doesn't really count what about some of the newer who would you consider like Stuart Lee the era that we're in now like the last 20 years sort of
Starting point is 00:53:01 is anyone it'd take them fucking three and a half fucking decades to finish his face wouldn't it? Hey, because his jokes take a while. Nailed it.
Starting point is 00:53:09 Adam Rowe, ladies and gents, he's going to be taking the money for parking very soon at the UK stand-up Mount Rushmore. I think it'd be British, it'd be Connolly, Victoria Wood, Peter Kay. I think Peter Kay's lucky to be up there. No, but in terms of like not even just straight stand up
Starting point is 00:53:27 so here's the problem there's two eras of stand up here that we're sort of merging into each other there's the original mainstream stand up that the alternative
Starting point is 00:53:36 scene sort of was a sort of like reaction to I almost feel like you'd have to have like a mate I don't know you're getting in the weeds
Starting point is 00:53:44 a bit aren't you but if you're talking alternative stand-up Billy Connolly could be there if you took there's people who'd argue for Alexi Sale yeah
Starting point is 00:53:51 like for what he did for alternative comedy the first campaign of the store and stuff I think he's B-side he's on the back he's on the back of the mountain
Starting point is 00:53:58 oh yeah yeah yeah you see him round the back doesn't get the sun eh eh erm ever mention that on this podcast Have you seen round the back? Doesn't get the sun. Eh? Eh? Ever mention that on this podcast? No, I meant... What, the thing that...
Starting point is 00:54:14 In the sky? Never! Don't even look at it! Especially not without fucking sunglasses. Yeah, that was good, that. Yeah. Hey, Carl. Yeah?
Starting point is 00:54:23 Great, that, mate. Do you like that question? Yeah. I mean, someone... Several people have written it in, but I love it how you've gone. I'll good, that. Yeah. Hey, Carl. Yeah? Great, that, mate. Do you like that question? Yeah. I mean, someone, several people have written it in, but I love it how you've gone. I'll genuinely have to. I made it better by making it UK,
Starting point is 00:54:31 but that's what we're here for. You come with ideas, and I make them palatable. Yes. Next question. What about a women's Mount Rushmore? A women's Mount Rushmore? No, genuinely,
Starting point is 00:54:42 if you were... Jane MacDonald. Oh, she's great on Loose Women. Yeah. Jane Macdonald. Oh, do you mean comedians? Right, yeah. I thought you just meant the best women.
Starting point is 00:54:52 Oh, the best women. Jane Macdonald. Angela Merkel. Gail Platt off Coddy. Modric. Just get Modric to stand in again. I'm not doing it for Modric Oh god I don't know
Starting point is 00:55:13 I like Joan Rivers Definitely Joan Rivers is up there She has to be I fucking love some of Amy Schumer's comedy I don't I love some of Amy Schumer's comedy She likes talking about her vagina a lot doesn't she
Starting point is 00:55:24 Oh I know But that's the thing that everyone points at. That's almost like the hack response to... That's almost like the hack thing to say about women comedy, isn't it? Absolutely, yeah. Women comedians. She leans into it a lot. Ali Wong's fucking great as well. Yeah, I haven't really watched much of her.
Starting point is 00:55:41 No opinion on women. It's amazing watching someone pregnant do two fucking Netflix specials while quite heavily pregnant I just watch my wife be amazing I'm just going to speak out loud there
Starting point is 00:55:56 talk and I is it any harder though? men will never know, do you know what I mean? we'll never know how hard it is to stand up pregnant it might be easier having another person in there, you're sharing their thoughts with them. It might make you quicker. It might give you ideas.
Starting point is 00:56:11 Exactly. Sorry, what? Talk about... Your unborn fetus is inside going, Adam, have you thought about doing that other joke? Third joke in. Thanks, fetus. Anyway.
Starting point is 00:56:23 Yeah. Right. Like, not articulating a particular word, but, like, just, like, a feeling. You might justus. Anyway. Yeah. Like, not articulate in a particular way, but, like, just, like, a feeling. You might just be inspired by your baby. It might be easier to do stand-up while heavily pregnant. So don't give it any credit without, like, looking into it. Don't give it any credit.
Starting point is 00:56:38 You know what I mean? Like, all I'm saying is, she's done two specials like that. So if it was that hard, wouldn't you just not do the second special while you've... I mean, I'm going to do's done two specials like that so if it was that hard wouldn't you just not do the second special while you've I mean I'm going to do the next section
Starting point is 00:56:48 after a KFC and I'm not sure how that's going to go but pregnancy seems like a fucking doddle sorry what was that what should I close on thank you
Starting point is 00:56:57 have you ever noticed what it's like to be in a womb a uterus next question I don't understand why I think I just started
Starting point is 00:57:06 saying words is Finn gone to get the KFC oh yeah there goes my hero one more question yeah
Starting point is 00:57:14 okay who is your favourite villain ooh so that could be like film TV book
Starting point is 00:57:21 just villain not real film or TV not real villain like don't say like Ian Brady fictional fictional villain
Starting point is 00:57:29 yeah who's your favourite bad guy yeah yeah not just like murderer of women and children
Starting point is 00:57:37 no no that'd be that wouldn't be funny it does well on other podcasts though does yeah
Starting point is 00:57:44 top five who's your Mount Rushmore of women killers no It does well on other podcasts though. Does? Yeah. Top five. Who's your Mount Rushmore of women killers? No, don't answer that. That was eight. That wasn't. Order. Order.
Starting point is 00:57:55 Adam. Favorite all-time villain. What have you watched where you're like, die, die, you cunt. Dolores Umbridge in Harry Potter. Oh, she's a... Have you seen Harry Potter? The what? Which one?
Starting point is 00:58:09 Four or five? Is she four? This is four, isn't it? It's five. Five? Order of the Phoenix. Yes. She comes in and takes over Hogwarts and she's there.
Starting point is 00:58:18 I swear to God. Right? I swear to God. Did it impress you again? Pink handbag. Yeah. I visualised it you nailed it I would happily
Starting point is 00:58:28 happily if I'd seen that actress in the streets right kicking in the face what's her name because she's an absolute she's like a national treasure
Starting point is 00:58:36 of British theatre and film I'd actually break me real if I had a machine gun I'd shoot it in the face I'd break me no machine guns for faces, really.
Starting point is 00:58:45 Mochra. Dolores Umbridge is played by Imelda Staunton. Imelda Staunton. Oh, do you know what? Etta has got a fucking Gruffalo audio CD that Imelda Staunton narrates. She fucking murders it. Shit. Really bad. And I've seen Imelda Staunton narrates, you know, she fucking murders it. Shit.
Starting point is 00:59:06 Really bad. And I've seen a Melda Staunton in loads. Right. But, mate, I'd be supportive. I'm sure she's lovely, but I wouldn't be able to get past. If I was walking down Oxford Street in London and she was walking down, something would just kick in,
Starting point is 00:59:16 and I'd just be like, and I'd fly. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You'd uppercut yeah 62 year old actress Imelda Staunton I'd
Starting point is 00:59:28 I'd yeah and when she was and when she was down I'd give her a fucking boot in the ribs and that's for the fucking Gruffalo CD
Starting point is 00:59:34 that I don't want to listen to in the car yeah she's 65 she's 65 no she's retired so that's not my favourite villain
Starting point is 00:59:42 Harry Potter 5 she is a good like to be a good villain is to have that reaction from people. Yeah, but there's also some villains that I quite like and I end up understanding. Go on. Like, I sort of understand Heath Ledger's Joker. You meant to.
Starting point is 00:59:56 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, you relate to him and you're like, yeah, burn the whole fucking thing to the ground. No, but he's... Yeah. But he's almost like... He's... He is the bad guy. He's to the ground. No, but he's, yeah, but he's almost like, he's, he is the bad guy.
Starting point is 01:00:09 He's absolutely the villain, but he's, he's a legendary villain because it was such an amazing performance and the Joker is always sort of likeable, isn't he? Because he's sort of mentally unstable
Starting point is 01:00:19 and he's funny and then he's scary. The anti-hero, isn't he? Essentially. Yeah, right. Yeah. It's a weird, God, fucking Heath Ledger's scary. He's the anti-hero, isn't he? Essentially. Yeah, right. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:26 It's a weird one. God fucking Heath Ledger's joke. But Joaquin Phoenix was also unbelievable at that job. Yeah. Like, phenomenal. But I don't relate to him in the same way. No.
Starting point is 01:00:35 That's quite sad, that one, isn't it? Yeah. I suppose there's the villain where you're like, I just want you to die. I remember watching Game of Thrones with Joffrey. Oh,
Starting point is 01:00:44 yeah. Is it the kid? Yeah, Joffrey. Oh, yeah. Is it the kid? Yeah, Joffrey. When he got, spoiler alert, poisoned, it was the weirdest thing where you're like, because by the time you get to series three of Game of Thrones, you know that people get murked, and you're like, oh, you almost get this longing,
Starting point is 01:00:57 like, please kill this cunt. I hate him. I really hate him. And then towards the end of that season, they murk him, and you're like, and he's a child he's about 14 as he's dying
Starting point is 01:01:07 you're literally in your living room going get the fuck in he's dead loved it Gustavo Fring that's literally coming out of my mouth
Starting point is 01:01:14 one of the best villains Breaking Bad Chicken Guy oh he's fucking amazing at being the bad guy isn't he yeah he's also in
Starting point is 01:01:22 I often he's also a bad guy in The Mandalorian that guy and he's annoying in that I often... He's also a bad guy in The Mandalorian, that guy, and he's annoying in that. I often relate to the villains more than I do the heroes. Shock.
Starting point is 01:01:31 You blow me away. Is that what I mean? Yeah, I do. Is that what I mean? Imagine. Would you agree that it is very hard to podcast

Starting point is 01:04:07 I don't know if that's a COVID symptom or just a bad diet thing. Do you know like... You're aero shit. Do you know like... What's the consistency? Do you know... Like a curry sauce from the chippy that you've let go solid and then you've re-warmed up
Starting point is 01:04:26 and it's got a bit of a skin yeah there's a thin bit that's what it's been like Jesus you know what I did Dan let me just wash this chitter chatter down
Starting point is 01:04:37 with this refreshing beverage it's lovely to see you thanks for coming in at such short notice as well you had an old Rona mate we've had new Rona yeah I had Rona Mark 1
Starting point is 01:04:47 back in the day when we didn't even know what it was no medical expert tell you for defo it was Rona you were like I was really tired
Starting point is 01:04:53 for a week in April yeah I had a comedian who used to be a doctor tell me he thought it was Rona that was the best we could do back then we didn't have tests
Starting point is 01:05:01 you could shove down your dick he had to stop YouTubing for five days i remembered i was like rob's at it rob's at it yeah has he been told by a doctor no no i'm guessing he has been told by a colleague yeah the medical training but like it would have been weird who was it uh paul sinner right so like he's smart as well he's like you know he's proper but he'd like you know it was at that point there weren't tests and Ali
Starting point is 01:05:25 Michael J Fox Rob that just seems like I'm being a total prick about Parkinson's it absolutely does but it is a callback to us talking about Parkinson's
Starting point is 01:05:36 Billy Connolly being a prick previously but I was being a prick yeah Connolly, Sinner Michael J Fox oh yeah one of them
Starting point is 01:05:42 it's elite to be fair it is elite group. Yeah. But yeah, like, there weren't, you know, that was the best way we could do it back then. There weren't tests. And, like, it would have been weird if I got wheezy and tired at the start of a pandemic,
Starting point is 01:05:54 you know, and it wasn't it. Yeah. Chances are you, yeah, yeah, yeah. Chances are. Odds are, but, you know, I can't be certain. But I'm pretty sure I did. You and I gigged, you were the last gig I did before the Roams.
Starting point is 01:06:05 Yeah, I think I probably got it there. And we were like, eh? Yeah. In Leeds at that shit club. I think it's Prism, but I think I got it the week before, right? Because the week before, you know, it takes like two weeks to come on, I think of it. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:06:17 I'm not a scientist. Don't fucking quote me on that. Oh, I got it from you then. No, you got it from him. Or him. Or someone. This is way back We're talking like last March
Starting point is 01:06:27 Don't get out of breath Accusing people of giving you Rona I got it Two seconds Two seconds But yeah It was when we were gigging When it was definitely not okay
Starting point is 01:06:36 To be gigging Like me and Dan Were in the dressing room Like oh this is not We shouldn't be here So you have to starve But you were the first person I ever did the elbow to
Starting point is 01:06:44 Yeah we were little elbows. We'll do this, that'll protect us. This feels fun and it got boring quick. Yeah. But like the week before that I'd been in Leeds and it was before anyone knew what the advice was. And I got home from a gig where I'd shaken maybe 200 people's hands. Got home to, don't shake people's hands.
Starting point is 01:07:02 I was like, oh. Were you doing the door that night, yeah? I was in the cloakroom, mate, taking jesus rob you ripped that gig didn't you long walk to the fucking dressing room on that one touch me touch me no like because i like in pre corona times i would i go to the back of a room when i get email signups like um so i would just chat to people on the way out so i'm just meeting. There was loads of stag do's and that. I'm like fucking high-fiving people. And I get home.
Starting point is 01:07:28 On the way home on the radio, it was like, the latest advice is don't shake hands. I was like, oh shit. But you came in there, and we're not fucking, obviously, he's had the rona,
Starting point is 01:07:37 I had the rona before, and Finn's still dying. You came in and we didn't shake hands or anything. It almost feels like, it's weird not to do any gesture what i've noticed recently is we've going to just the fist bump yeah this one has become very standard we're just going to it because even though it's probably not a good idea to fist bump feels like you just be like right and then sitting down yeah it's weird
Starting point is 01:07:59 i was kicking people's feet for a while just to do summit. Just like kid and play. Oh, fuck it. Oh, did they do that in Japan, did they? Got to bring that. I don't know. I'm just saying. Just saying we should start bowing. Rob.

We'll bow when you come in for Japan for you. And now you, it's a silly thing. On the way out, we'll just go, ow! That's a goodbye. We'll bow when you come in for Japan for you and

Have you seen Liverpool Narcos? Look in the background. There's fucking four-year-old Adam. Have you seen the cocaine, the pills episode of Liverpool Narcos? There's a bouncing fucking four-year-old Adam. Have you seen the cocaine, the pills episode of Liverpool Narcos?

Starting point is 01:13:14 We'll go round the block. Get on the pogo stick. With it being Liverpool, is there like shirtless lads doing it with no hands? Can you wheelie a pogo stick? I don't know if you can, but i would love to see one of the proper like you know in the scouse burka you know when it's just like all black north face like over the face onto there all blacked out pogo stick do you reckon that'll be the olympics skateboarding and that like what what you know what's the difference fundamentally between skateboarding and pogo sticking?
Starting point is 01:13:46 And jet skiing. Jet skiing? Yeah, but that's got an engine in it. You're powering the pogo yourself. Don't start him with the Olympics and engines. He's been here before, Rob. And rockets. When are planes in the Olympics?
Starting point is 01:14:02 Why can't I ride Nemesis at Al alton towers in the olympics oh right imagine i watched the bmx the other day uh yesterday they had the bmx on i'll be honest never watched it before never given a shit about it pretty fucking fun you they all go around and like bmx racing that's fun like i i'd like to sit on a pogo stick i hate the skateboarding like i'm a big fan of skateboarding I just think it's fucking lame Olympic skateboarding because for a start you've got to pass a drug test so none of the good skaters are there
Starting point is 01:14:31 like no one good's there because they'll smoke loads of weed fair enough that though innit you can't just make an exception for drugs just for the skateboard yeah but I feel like you should I definitely think weed should be exempt it's not performance enhancing is it I've said this before on this podcast,
Starting point is 01:14:47 almost certainly. They should let everyone take whatever drugs they want. That's the real Olympics. Sochi, 2014. Yeah, but not performance enhancing drugs. Only illegal drugs. So you're allowed
Starting point is 01:14:58 as much cannabis as you want. You can have whatever you want. Whatever you want. That's a genuine level playing field. You want to take Steads? Take them. Don't want to take them? Don want. That's a genuine level playing field. You want to take steds? Take them. Don't want to take them. Don't.
Starting point is 01:15:08 That's your peak physical fitness. Lane one, the Kenyan. Lane two, the Canadian. Lane three, OD. Lane four, OD. Lane five. Lane five, the cyborg. That's your risk though, isn't it?
Starting point is 01:15:19 Yeah, but the problem is if everyone's allowed to do it, you have to do it to compete, isn't it? If everyone's like roided up, it's not really a choice. If you're like, well, if you want to be in, you can be in the Olympics final and run 10 minutes slower than everyone else. There's still the fucking vanilla, you know, geeky Olympics that we've got now. Right, right, right. But just after, like the Paralympics, we've also got the wreckhead Olympics.
Starting point is 01:15:40 I'm up for that. Paralympics on drugs. Yeah. Nope. Carl. Yeah. Nope. Carl. Nope. See this hot potato?
Starting point is 01:15:50 Yeah. You can have that back. Ain't no one picking that one up. I think it's a really good idea. Don't tell me you wouldn't watch paddling pics on drugs. How would that look, Carl? I mean, that's how I watch everything. No, Rob, Rob, let the camera cut to Carl. Okay.
Starting point is 01:16:01 How would that look, Carl? Wheelchair basketball, everyone's smacked off the tits. What, that gets past them and just bounces off their face? watch that.
Starting point is 01:16:10 Smackball. That's the drugs, by the way. That's the drugs doing that, yeah. Goodbye, my friend.
Starting point is 01:16:19 It's been a nice run. Rob, thanks for being here for the last episode. glad to be here for the final one. Smackball. Wheelchair smackball.
Starting point is 01:16:28 You would watch that prime time, nine o'clock Saturday night. If you're in a smackhead, being like, having like disabled legs I think would be an advantage because then you can't feel
Starting point is 01:16:37 where you're stabbing in. You know when you like run out of veins in your arms and you've got to go elsewhere and they end up knackering the legs. If the legs are already full. They can't get in the Olympics though
Starting point is 01:16:45 yeah well no because they get drug tested or if you remove that barrier and all those smack heads who are on the streets
Starting point is 01:16:53 doing now finally they've got a purpose now they can be in the coxless force and they are quick as well some of them are
Starting point is 01:16:59 to the ATM at midnight on a Thursday imagine that for 100 metres 4 seconds that'd be really funny there's just one ATM To the ATM at midnight on a Thursday. Imagine that for 100 metres. Four seconds. That'd be really funny. There's just one ATM
Starting point is 01:17:08 and there's six of them and it's the first one to get their full gyro out. I want to see the Spice 100 metres and it takes 45 minutes. But they have to have the event at 10 to midnight. In very, very late start for the Spice Olympics. Gyro comes in at midnight.
Starting point is 01:17:28 We've got to make it all the way around the Burger King and back to the big Primark. So nervous. The tension is so rough. We could have done Smackhead Olympics without the first bit. We've ended up where we needed to be yeah we got there but we went a dangerous route oh yeah we took a rocky road yeah i genuinely think let everyone do do whatever they want but they fucking are anyway there should be several olympics in my house
Starting point is 01:17:58 right so you got the drugs whatever you want that one yeah and you've got the one that they have at the minute like the regular don't do drugs. Regular Olympics. Yeah, and we're going to start testing you properly. The boring Olympics. And then the next one down is just us. So if you've ever competed or shown any interest, you're not eligible.
Starting point is 01:18:19 And there's another Olympics where they literally just go around the street and they go, right, you, you're done. It's like the draft. Yeah, they just get people off the street and they're just like right you're doing javelin you're doing shot putt carl you're doing fingers crossed you get gymnastics just random cunt olympics yeah i've watched that before i watched the proper one so so your selection for the olympic team is like the postcode lottery yeah right yeah yeah you don't have to even sign up.
Starting point is 01:18:46 It's not like Geordie Ducey. It's like conscription. It's just, look, we're going to Olympic war with fucking Belgium and you're doing it for us. Belgium is so good
Starting point is 01:18:55 in the Olympics as well. Neil, you've had a letter, love. You're doing discus in Tokyo. Just watching some old cunt's hip fly out as they spin round trying to throw it. What? What does it say, Margaret?
Starting point is 01:19:12 You're going. If only we could have got Captain Tom in the 1500. Oh, it would have been, he would have fucking smashed it. Gone too soon. Gone too soon. Hashtag gone way too soon. Way too soon.
Starting point is 01:19:23 153 years old. Raised 28 million pounds For charity for just not dying Then went to the fucking Barbados To bang hookers Yeah but can you fucking blame the lad I hope he fucking had loads of hookers Good on him I hope that's how he went
Starting point is 01:19:40 I hope he drowned in pussy He deserved it Is that on his death certificate Drowning pussy I hope he drowned in pussy. He deserved it. Is that the cause of death? Drown in pussy. If you drown, do they put... Couldn't breathe for all the pussy. I don't know if they put what suffocated you.
Starting point is 01:19:55 I think they just put suffocation. I don't think they put like ball gag went wrong. You haven't put what suffocated me. Was it a pillow or pussy? Pussy was it? Drowned in debt. Or dick. You know, if Captain Tom was into that,
Starting point is 01:20:08 I don't know. I don't want to cast aspersions on Captain Tom's sexuality. You know, whatever he was into, he deserved. Did he put pillow? Drowned in pillow? Yeah. I don't think you drown in a pillow, though, do you? You're mad at that.
Starting point is 01:20:20 Unless you've got like a 70s water bed. Unless your wife is writing The death certificate He drowned in a pillow Honestly and I said You shouldn't get these 14 tog pillows Because they're quite heavy And he insisted on them
Starting point is 01:20:34 And I don't know how I got these scratch marks Oh she killed him What? I get it Just edit this out Just want to make sure you know What I was insinuating is that she killed him What? I get it. Just edit this out. Just so, but just, just want to make sure,
Starting point is 01:20:46 you know, what I was insinuating is that she killed him. Oh, with a pillow. 14, Tog. Do they not?
Starting point is 01:20:54 So if you just, like if you drown, do they just say drowned? They don't say like drowned in the sink or at sea? I mean, I definitely don't think
Starting point is 01:21:01 they put drowned in the sink ever. I don't think that's ever happened. How does that happen? An adult. Let's not do the... A tragic apple bobbing incident. Fucking, you trash. How am I working class with that?
Starting point is 01:21:15 Let's do some apple bobbing. Outside. No! It's raining. Or it's in the kitchen. The saddest children's party ever. I feel like I've definitely bobbed for apples in more than one sink
Starting point is 01:21:26 like is that is that council is that like yeah we used to do that yeah we used to do yeah but your council
Starting point is 01:21:32 is fucked you're not helping my course in the bath yeah it was difficult going the pogo but still fucking made it work
Starting point is 01:21:37 just go on Adam yeah we used to do it. My mum used to put like a quid and a 50p and a 10p in the apples and they were in a bucket and then... I don't think we had coins in the apples. I think our treat was a delicious apple. You can take this one. You have been on some fucking unbelievable form today.
Starting point is 01:21:59 Your mum got the fruit and jammed coins into the middle. Not a quid as well. Yeah. You could push a penny in or a two. No. A quid's too fat to push into an apple. Not for Anne Rowe, mate. No.
Starting point is 01:22:10 It used to be. She inserted a hole into the side of the apple and then jammed a 50p in there. She used to get £10 worth of change. She used to get me to go to the ice cream man and get £10 worth of different change. And then she'd put it, that 10 quid was in the whole bowl. And then me and me mates would compete
Starting point is 01:22:28 for the 10 quid on Halloween. Yeah. In the kitchen, in the... Just in a, it was the same bucket. It wasn't in the sink. No, it was in a big... It was in the plastic sink bucket. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:22:38 The washing up tub. The inside sink. Would you end up in hospital because you'd all choked on points? No. No, you just eat your points. You just bite in the apple and then you get your apple, and you're like, what?
Starting point is 01:22:47 Double-edged sword this, because he's had one of his five a day, but he's eaten my fucking two-pound coin. It's difficult being a mum, isn't it? You want him to eat fruit, but not your fucking change. Yeah. My mum was gutted one year as well, because obviously she always wanted me or Jack to win. There was one with a two-pound coin in it, so she always wanted me or Jack to win. Like, there was one with a £2 coin in it,
Starting point is 01:23:07 so she always wanted me or Jack to win that, and one of my mates won it, and she was like, I'm burning, it's got to be £2. When did the £2 coin come in? I feel it wasn't around that long, was it? In Liverpool, 1983. Yeah, lad, and there's a £3 coin, and there's a £4.50 coin.
Starting point is 01:23:23 Fucking knobheads. What do you mean? It's legal, Tansy! Off he pogos. With his weird bag of magic coins. That's why Adam's wheezing. It's just like 16p rattling around in his lungs. What I've just said, by way is 100% true No it's not
Starting point is 01:23:50 You're in a silly mood It's long Covid It's made you more ridiculous There's no way she put a tenner in There's no way it was a tenner Honestly I want to get a Ouija board out What the fuck was that? What was that?
Starting point is 01:24:01 Swear on your Covid? I swear on my Rona I think that was like what you say when you're going to murder someone in Colombian prison. Swear on my Pogo. Like, I believe that she pushed some coins into it. She'd put a tenner in every year. Why would you do a tenner for kids?
Starting point is 01:24:17 Just put 5p in, they'll be delighted. She was a very generous woman. Because they were hustling. By the way, can Harry Robinson make the Pogo stick? Just in case you forgot. He didn't't they're already making a t-shirt boys on the pogo i did one pogo in the hood we'll work we'll work on that i used to do like i used to go to like you center where we'd do like apple bobbing and all that remember on halloween right like what was in the apples nothing just
Starting point is 01:24:45 you got an apple I never thought I thought it was always just an apple yeah you just win an apple money in it no no
Starting point is 01:24:50 international rules it's bobbing for apples yeah it's not bobbing for apples and pocket money exactly if you bob if you bob
Starting point is 01:24:59 let it hang that fucking joke. I've never known a client. In Nesbury, you went down to the youth centre to bob for apples. Go down to youth centre, but after the album opening. Rob grew up in late Victorian Nesbury. I remember that. Robbing for apples. They brought out hot dogs.
Starting point is 01:25:24 They were like, how many hot dogs does everyone want and like one of the like the big hard lad off my estate was like i want four they were like you can't eat four hot dogs because we're like you know we're like nine we're little yeah it's like you can't eat four hot dogs it's like better fucking can right and he's like giving it big licks and because i was like the skinny like weak like that was the proper little pussy on the estate they were like yeah Rob I bet you a fiver I could eat all four because I was like you're not eating
Starting point is 01:25:47 four hot dogs I bet you a fiver you can and that was like big money for me then I did not have a fiver I was like was he a big the big bully
Starting point is 01:25:54 what was his name do you remember like Laskal I think this was I think the problem is there's one of like
Starting point is 01:26:02 three lads it might have been I think this might have been Tippy like shout out Tippy if been Tippy shout out Tippy if you're watching shout out Tippy we're sponsored a new sponsor today
Starting point is 01:26:09 I think it might have been but like there's a few people it could have been it's a long time ago but it's sort of like I was press ganged
Starting point is 01:26:16 into this bet that I didn't want and then after two hot dogs he threw up and then he didn't pay me so either Tippy or maybe Danny
Starting point is 01:26:23 maybe one a year maybe Craig it's one a year, maybe Craig. It's one a year. I was being a fiver. Sponsored by Craig. Yeah. You can't eat two hot dogs. I know, two hot dogs.
Starting point is 01:26:30 It was fucking pathetic. Even a nine-year-old, you've got to be able to get two down, isn't it? They used to sell hot dogs in our school. Oh, I used to love Mr. Rogers' shows.
Starting point is 01:26:38 Mr. Rogers, hot dog 50 pence each, two for a pound. Great line. What? Did you go to school on a fucking market store? Gaslighter, two for a pound great line what did you go to school on a fucking market gaslighter
Starting point is 01:26:48 six for a pound what did you get your hot dogs in a paper bag they were 50 pence each or two for a pound and he did he actually did a call out
Starting point is 01:26:56 for it yeah he stood there so he was the deputy head and he stood next to the poor little shaking like a shitting dog dinner lady
Starting point is 01:27:02 Scott's mum yeah Scott's mum she's been hurt before they're fucking animals I'm shitting dog dinner lady Scott's mum yeah Scott's mum that's why I got called she's been hurt before those fucking animals are not doing it yeah so Scott's mum sold the hot dogs
Starting point is 01:27:10 he was literally stood there he had a bottle of tomato sauce in one hand and a bottle of brown sauce in the other he's not lying who's putting brown sauce on a nut dog
Starting point is 01:27:17 well it was sausages on a bar it wasn't like brat first it was just sausages and so that wasn't enough he decided
Starting point is 01:27:23 that he needed to do like a meat van advertisement what are you getting in this fucking bun you're not just getting one bit of meat you're getting red sauce
Starting point is 01:27:32 you're getting brown sauce did he have one of those microphones that goes over your ear no he just had a booming voice yeah he was and you'd go over
Starting point is 01:27:42 and that was the joke sometimes for two quid you'd get four hot like and that was the joke sometimes for two quid you'd get four hot dogs but was that a joke that he did I assume yeah it was a maths joke
Starting point is 01:27:51 oh it was a maths joke yeah it wasn't just like because you can get two for a pound even without that offer just pause this so I can explain it to each other go on
Starting point is 01:27:59 so they're 50p each but then yeah that's this money times ten yeah but usually with 2 for a it's like a reduced fee
Starting point is 01:28:07 because you're getting more yeah but 250p makes £1 yep and you're getting 2 alright press go go on we go again
Starting point is 01:28:13 good luck yeah yeah but yeah sometimes I'd get 4 why were they encouraging kids to eat hot dogs I know it was pre Jamie Oliver
Starting point is 01:28:20 but still they must have known it wasn't pre Jamie Oliver I didn't go to school with him alright not pre JamieJamie Oliver existing. You know what I mean? Like,
Starting point is 01:28:28 you know, the Jamie Oliver campaign. Rob, you've got to get when he went to school very right. Apparently fucking so. Was I in school
Starting point is 01:28:36 in 1994? I went to school in 1996. Rob. Fucking pogo nonce. Scott's my heart. How many could you eat in a row? Sausages. Not in the barn.
Starting point is 01:28:51 That's ridiculous. Was he eating hot dogs with the bread? Yeah. He's a fucking idiot. You take that every day. Oh, no, that's easiest. Oh, yeah. Mate, you're talking to the two-time
Starting point is 01:29:01 Manchester hot dog eating champion. No. What? I won two hot dog eating competitions in Manchester. I'll be waiting until ten minutes into the hot dog. What have you been waiting for? I've been sitting on this. I'll hold on to this for later.
Starting point is 01:29:22 Ending the podcast. By the way. Oh, yeah. Tell me a thing about hot dogs. I'm quite the hot dog man myself. ending the podcast by the way oh yeah so let's think about hot dogs I'm going to Tokyo on Tuesday to represent
Starting point is 01:29:29 Great Britain yeah you know Rob Lolland's actually a stage name my real name's Joey Chestnut is this real no this is real
Starting point is 01:29:37 I won a lot at the at the Deaf Institute in Manchester I used to go watch the Superbowl every year and they would run hot dog eating championship
Starting point is 01:29:44 at the Superbowl party at half they would run hot dog eating championship at the Super Bowl party. Half time. Half time, and I won it two years running, because I'm fucking deadly when I get eaten. How many did you eat? It was only like two minutes. I ate six. With the bread?
Starting point is 01:29:56 Yeah. What size are we talking? Sort of like? Yeah, proper hot dogs like that. The technique, right? Because I'd watched the documentary about the competitive eaters, so I knew the technique. What you do is you whip out two sausages right you get them out two sausages out of the bun just the sausage then you go
Starting point is 01:30:11 full bugs bunny you put them together and you go and you like chew them so you don't have to chew it anymore so you push them in chewing like that and then swallow then get your buns you dunk them in a pint of water and just shove it in and swallow it's horrible but like I oh my god I was so far ahead of everyone
Starting point is 01:30:29 I think the people behind me had like one they'd be like eating it like and you dad soup
Starting point is 01:30:36 but this is this is ten to two in the morning isn't it this is late on everyone's a bit pissed and everyone's like I can't eat it I'll's a bit pissed. Yeah. And everyone's like, I can't eat it.
Starting point is 01:30:46 I'll have a hot dog. That'd be nice. And you've got technique. And I went full on like, yeah, yeah. I didn't come to play. So you ate six hot dogs. In like, yeah.
Starting point is 01:30:54 You'd not chewed them properly. So you've basically got about three feet of hot dog meat sliced up slightly and swallowed. Three feet? Well, I mean.
Starting point is 01:31:02 Yeah, yeah. When you put those sausages end to end, you'll get about that, yeah. They're about half a foot of sausage, innit? Half a foot? Do you know how big half a...
Starting point is 01:31:09 What? Six inches? No way! A six inch sausage? I've seen a six inch sausage in me time. I actually think my math was pretty good on that.
Starting point is 01:31:17 I think that was pretty good. You might be a bit under it, but like, you know, you're there or thereabouts. But the wet bun. Yeah, the wet buns are it. You've made bread more difficult to digest almost.
Starting point is 01:31:27 Maybe to digest, but it's much easier to swallow because it's not dry. So you can just hammer it down. Did you do at school the Jacob's cream cracker challenge? Yeah. How many you can eat in a row without a glass of water. Yeah, it's madness how few it is. The world record is like six or something in a minute
Starting point is 01:31:42 because it's so hard. I don't know what it is exactly. Because it's so fucking dry. Yeah, it just takes all the moisture out of your mouth. That's one of those things, isn't it, that I hear and I'm like, I feel like I could do 25. Yeah, yeah. In a minute.
Starting point is 01:31:54 Like, easily though. Yeah. It just seems like whoever's had a go wasn't the best at it and the people who are meant to do that thing haven't heard about it yet. I mean, they literally are the best at it because they're in the
Starting point is 01:32:05 Guinness Book of Records yeah but that's only because no one else has tried I think quite a few people have had a bash now what Adam means is I am so great
Starting point is 01:32:12 I am so great I like crackers so I think we're organically we're organically finding a bit of a patron special here aren't we
Starting point is 01:32:22 the backflip cream cracker special the challenges we've the the backflip cream cracker special the challenges we've got a backflip and I'll buy a pogo to see this knobhead fall off one what do you think
Starting point is 01:32:30 you could be in the Guinness Book of Records for ooh that's a good one I could eat more watsuts than anyone else right how are we measuring this though is it
Starting point is 01:32:39 it freaks me out how he doesn't have to think about this I know that was just there ready to go wasn wasn't it? Carl, I've said this to you before a few times on, like, drives. I am the what's it king.
Starting point is 01:32:52 Brand, only brand. Brand what's it? How many do you think you could do? Packs or individual what's it? Packs. Packs in five minutes. 25 gram packs. Are they 25 gram?
Starting point is 01:33:02 About that? I could do a full 24 multi-pack in five minutes. No, you couldn't. You've got a one pack in as minutes. 25 gram packs. Are they 25 gram? I could do a full 24 multi-pack in five minutes. No, you couldn't. You've got a one pack in as well. They're staying in, you're getting a multi-pack presented to you. Does that include opening
Starting point is 01:33:12 or are they pre-opened? I'd say with opening, yeah. How much saliva do you think you produce? You're just like, I've just got the moistest mouth in the world. Is this without...
Starting point is 01:33:21 I'm like a horny Doberman, especially when there's watsits involved. Without a glass of water, this is just how many- Without a glass of water. 24 bags of water. Can someone do the maths on that, please?
Starting point is 01:33:35 It's insane. The Jacob's Cream Cracker Challenge is the fact that they're so weirdly fucking flaky and dry, by the third one, you like yeah like and you just can't swallow that's a packet of watsits every 12 and a half seconds an entire packet patreon.com slash have a word pod i'm buying a pogo i'm buying some watsits some crackers and we're gonna get robbed to backflip 10 minutes i could do it on the pogo stick dan what do you think
Starting point is 01:34:05 you'd be able to do to get into the what am I what am I particularly fucking good at not I genuinely don't know that there's any
Starting point is 01:34:13 major skill that I'm amazing at for not having got the confidence in eating that he has the way he just went what's it
Starting point is 01:34:20 without even fucking blinking so the world record for eating a pack of what's it's is held by a Ber So, the world record for eating a pack of Watsits is held by a Birkin head man. Oh, yes. Ben ate a pack of Watsits in 33 seconds.
Starting point is 01:34:31 Right, and you're reckoning you could do 24 at an average of 12 seconds a pack? I'm telling you right now, without any, without blinking, I could beat that. Have we got any Watsits in the studio? One packet of Watsits. Oh, come on. Please have a packet of Watsits?
Starting point is 01:34:45 Oh, come on. Please have a packet of Watsits. Oh, we haven't, you know. Oh, devastating. Here's a packet of Quavers, I'll do them instead. All right, we'll do a test run with Quavers. It's not the same thing, but you know, it's... Oh, fuck it. Quavers? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:35:00 Like that? Right, hold on, I'll get my stopwatch on. I think tolerance for drugs back in the day day I could have put in some PB. But I'm 40 now, I'm like a retired professional. Back in my mid-twenties, I could have been selected for England. I believe you, man. I believe you. The European Championships are in Ibiza every year. Sorry for the audio.
Starting point is 01:35:18 England would fucking smash that, by the way, if it was tolerance for drugs as a competition. We used to chat... Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, sweet child of mine. We used to get munted and challenge each other to go and do things. Let's go to the shop. For the audio listeners, just go to YouTube now,
Starting point is 01:35:32 just for this. Yeah. Okay? So I can crush them? Right, we're going to have two independent timers. So what's the record for the what's it? 33 seconds for the first drink away from him. All right, go on.
Starting point is 01:35:42 I won't touch it until I'm done. All right, all right. But I'll need it When I'm done won't I Yeah but you've got to Swallow the first one So you've got to Clean your mouth
Starting point is 01:35:48 Before we get any of that Okay Alright I'll start the timer And you can all follow Right you count down Right you ready Adam Yeah
Starting point is 01:35:55 What's the record Sorry 33 seconds This could be a new Guinness For what's it's What's it's 33 But Quavers
Starting point is 01:36:02 We don't know if there is one Don't know This is a present Ready 3 2 1 Go Yeah, Watts is 33, but Quaver's... We don't know if there is one. Don't know. This is a present. Ready? Three, two, one, go. He started with a crushing technique. Three seconds of crushing.
Starting point is 01:36:15 I'll be honest, he's on seven seconds. He's not even had a Quaver. Right. Okay. Right. Here he goes. It's not going to matter. It's not going to matter.
Starting point is 01:36:22 He lost confidence. Immediately. In 12 seconds. He put the first bit of quaver in his mouth and he's like I would shit a fucking 24 multi-pack of Watsit.
Starting point is 01:36:29 Bear in mind Adam. Come on Adam. Come on. Keep going. You're in the race still. On your record Adam you'd have already had nearly three bags of Watsit.
Starting point is 01:36:37 No laughing's slowing you down mate. Don't laugh. Don't laugh. I know it's a comedy podcast. I could have done this if I went for him. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 01:36:43 Oh yeah nearly. You're fucking well. He's knobbed you. You've lost the Watsit time anyway. Oh God. it's a comedy podcast. I could have done this if I went for him. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, nearly. You're fucking well. He's not. You've lost the what's-it-time anyway. Oh, God. It's a different discipline. This is. From 42 seconds.
Starting point is 01:36:51 You're not even trying, Adam. Stop looking at me and focus. Look in the back. That's your future. Eat. You're a fucking disappointment. If you're a Chinese quaver athlete, you'd be shot. Ready?
Starting point is 01:37:02 Come on. Dan's turned into one of these team gb coaches who's been bullying all the rowers right we need it's not done well he's done fucking shit you've done well i've done well he's not finished yeah finish he's not fucking finished gonna be a sub 90 seconds though pb right one minute 11 yeah now i think we need me left it. We need a performance-enhancing substance like a hangover, and I reckon you could slash that down. Now, this is a category where weed is a performance-enhancing drug. It very much helps me in the hot dog eating.
Starting point is 01:37:34 You know, like, that is a category where... Oh, were you stoned? Of course I was. I do everything stoned. You smoking the marijuana joints. I was, yeah.

Shouldn't you go in the... Time-wise, how long does it take for you to start on purpose towards the end. Time-wise, how long does it take for you to start and then finish coming?

I had it once where I tried to look at my phone and I just saw a big, like, pink finger looking at me, pointing where I was looking at my phone. If you're wrecked, like, pink finger looking at me, pointing where I was looking. If you're wrecked, you can't be looking on your phone. I mean, actual paperwork works.
Starting point is 01:41:52 You're like, this is great. Yeah. But I used to be dead good at that, getting absolutely bollocks and then being able to hold it together where everyone was like, oh, I'm so wrecked. I was like, I want to go to the SO garage. You were definitely good at thinking you were keeping it together.
Starting point is 01:42:04 Genuinely held it the fuck together. Me and my mate Jill used to go to the Esso garage. You were definitely good at thinking you were keeping it together. Genuinely held it the fuck together. Me and my mate Jill used to go on little missions where everyone was like, messed up. We were all right. I think I could put it together. It's got to be called Jill. You were at the top of a hill.

But Studio 2 is a lovely, intimate little room. It is a nice, calm little room, actually. I don't think Freddie Quinn would be happy about its second use.

Starting point is 01:46:13 blue top and all that you're talking utter bollocks of the highest fucking order you just want to be different you're like cheddar
Starting point is 01:46:21 red leicester and mozzarella like everyone else goat cheese is an unwelcome bonus 90 of the time i know i choose it i love goat cheese it's bloody lovely last week when uh eshan was in that chair carl got away with saying a few things and there was a weird gap where it felt like no one spoke did you call yourself a polymath at one point what did you call yourself possibly yeah it's a polymath at one point? What did you call yourself? Possibly. What's a polymath? Polymath.
Starting point is 01:46:46 And everyone went, oh, no. And there was a gap. A couple of times, there was a gap. And I literally went, that's where Adam would have ripped Carl a new one. And it was really reassuring, one week later, to be sat there going, there you go. That's the exact moment. Fuck off, goat cheese, you fucking goatee numbs.
Starting point is 01:47:03 For once, I'm actually with Adam on this, though. No way, if you could only have one cheese for every goat cheese. I didn't say that. I said goat cheese, you fucking goatee numbs. For once, I'm actually with Adam on this though. No way, if you could only have one cheese- I didn't say that, I said goat cheese is fire. Hang on, what was the question you asked? You said the goat. It is the goat. It isn't, you're talking shit. It's not the best cheese.
Starting point is 01:47:15 It's just not. Cheese is subjective. It is, but this is objective. You're talking shite. Is goat's cheese the goat of cheese or are you just a bit like sort of- Do you know what I mean? No, it's not. It's called goat's cheese the goat of cheese or are you just a bit like sort of is it like it's called goat's cheese
Starting point is 01:47:27 it would just be cheese and all the other cheese would be cow's cheese we've had this conversation before fucking shite you're talking shite if you're having cheese

No, no, no. I brought the Evian bottle.
Starting point is 01:55:06 Look, you can see a little marker where i hit my target last ladies i've come to park i do feel guilty about this i did i did this on the train no one i'm not proud of it i'm feeling really bad there will never have had a guiltier guest They will never have had a guiltier guest. He's perfect. He's like, I'm trying to respect you. The guilty feminist. I just feel bad.

Starting point is 01:55:43 we thought it'd be a funny juxtaposition. That was all. Dan, I nearly said it for the comedic value. I didn't have any follow-up to that. I just said the name of the podcast. I don't know anything about it, but, you know, best of luck to everyone involved. I'd love to go on like a parenting podcast
Starting point is 01:55:59 and just pretend I've got a child and just talk about how easy it is. Right, the lactation special. They're like, yeah, yeah, I just let them do whatever they want. They seem to be doing all right. She's in the car right now. They're flying in school.
Starting point is 01:56:14 A's right across the board. If they want sweets, they get them. They can have drugs. I've told them I'm not going to stop them doing whatever they want. Seems to be working. If anything, I'm sleeping more. Yeah, just drive them mad.
Starting point is 01:56:24 What about the sleepless nights? Don't know what you're on about, mate. Just put that Harry Potter on for them. Fucking knock them out. Get in that. Night, night. Fucking not bad. Tiny.
Starting point is 01:56:35 Get out. Choke them out. I can tell you something I'm never fucking going back on. I did some talk sport ones over the lockdown i'm not fucking doing that shit again like it was fucking awful they literally like they uh they give you some cash so that's nice but they literally tell you your opinion before you go on they go like so they go like you're gonna argue this and like i had to like argue uh leeds united are a bigger club than chelsea which is a stupid argument i don't care about. I think it's pointless. You can't measure it. It's a lie as well.
Starting point is 01:57:06 Historically, I even want any metric, but basically all that happened was I shouted at an idiot and then I got loads of death threats. They released it in five parts and no one was coming out because my inbox was just full of Chelsea fans. You've got a bit of a lane going, though, as the Legionnaire comedian
Starting point is 01:57:23 who can work a camera and stick it on YouTube. It's like you i've seen your stuff it's great and i have no affiliation to these but you nail it yeah it's just like i just started doing that as a laugh i don't really want to be a football youtuber at all i just sort of started doing it because it was fun and i don't think i'll do it forever because i it started to become like making football work which i don't want it to be football's a laugh for me you know it's my like my hobby so like but I do the odd thing every now and again it's a bit of fun and like
Starting point is 01:57:46 there's a good little like community of a few people doing it so yeah like that's the same as you innit you've done a bit of like yeah the red men
Starting point is 01:57:52 I stopped being a wind up with footy on twitter because it's just people are so with football they're so unbelievably
Starting point is 01:58:03 easy to upset yeah they don't take the nuance or the joke in anything it's just immediately like they can be in the pub with their mates With football, they're so unbelievably easy to upset. Yeah, they don't take the nuance or the joke in anything. It's just immediately like... They can be in the pub with their mates, and their mate might say something far worse than I will about Everton, for example, and they're like, oh, yeah, what a pint. Because it's on Twitter and written down, and from someone they don't know and don't have...
Starting point is 01:58:20 They don't associate being a human with it. You're just this thing behind the screen that they now hate. And they'll hate everything you ever do forever. Because you're one of many football trolls in their mind that have gone before just fucking niggling, say anything that's annoying. One of Everton's players last week. Just been to Anglesey. Had a run around.
Starting point is 01:58:45 Alleged. Alleged. It hasn't come out yet. It hasn't come out. Oh my God. annoying. One of Everton's players last week just been to Anglesey had a run around alleged alleged allegedly it hasn't come out oh my god it's been alleged that he shagged a 15 year old okay and then
Starting point is 01:58:53 but she was a prostitute and he thought she was a prostitute and then they've gone ah she's 15 give us millions of pounds or we'll grass you up and he's gone no
Starting point is 01:59:00 I'm not getting blackmailed that's apparently what's happened isn't it apparently now allegedly so allegedly and i've said fuck all and that tells you how much progress i've made yeah that's big of you i've said nothing he's been not isolation with the roaner with a phone tell you what man if it was a Man U player I would never be off Twitter
Starting point is 01:59:25 I'm like it would be constant is he a non-star who doesn't think she was 15 I mean look doesn't matter in the world of football
Starting point is 01:59:33 it's one of those where technically you're in a fever file if it's like teenagers but if you're the person who's making those distinctions I've sang for years that Gary Neville
Starting point is 01:59:40 shags his dad he does that and I've got a lot less evidence for that erm like allegedly it's imagine what Everton fans would be like I think the devil shags his dad. He does that. And I've got a lot less evidence for that. Allegedly. Imagine what Everton fans would be like if it came out,
Starting point is 01:59:52 James Milner done this. A bit different, isn't it? No. Why? Because he's kind of integral to the club, James Milner. I mean, he's splitting hairs really a little bit. Shaqiri. I don't think we'd be arsed. I wouldn't be arsed.
Starting point is 02:00:04 Oh, fuck off. Can I just say? I'd think we'd be arsed I wouldn't be arsed can I just say I'd be above it actually I'd be above that as much as I don't give a fuck I don't either are we playing
Starting point is 02:00:14 the game going through the squad who would be the more obvious nonce we literally started going
Starting point is 02:00:21 through players Shaqiri Shaqiri Shaqiri he's got he's about the right size for kids isn't he he is yeah
Starting point is 02:00:29 so yeah that's a tricky one isn't it because all are legend as well yes yeah I don't really bother with the wind up
Starting point is 02:00:36 fussy stuff anymore yeah no I try what that's proven in the last five minutes yeah do you want us to do
Starting point is 02:00:44 some editing I still I still way clear of that I don't even mention That's proven in the last five minutes Do you want us to do some editing? I still I still Way clearer than that I don't even mention it It's a fucking nonce On my podcast No but it's different
Starting point is 02:00:52 Again because it's Twitter isn't it Written down It's a bit Like it's detached But even when like These are like videos and stuff And people watching it Like I said on one of them
Starting point is 02:00:59 I hated Frank Lampard that much I was glad his goal against Germany Didn't stand And like I got loads of like Flag shaggers like how dare you be
Starting point is 02:01:07 so unpatriotic about England and all this it's like it happened a decade ago and I'm clearly fucking about tell you what
Starting point is 02:01:13 I got a lot of shit on Twitter recently for saying that I thought Christian Ericsson was faking well that will yeah that will get
Starting point is 02:01:21 some of that reaction on it it was very funny again of course it was. Lad nearly died on the pitch having a heart attack. It wasn't that. Mulholland's like, God, everyone's being such pussies about this.
Starting point is 02:01:29 It wasn't as it was happening. It wasn't as it was happening. It was well after. Like, it was weeks after. Everyone knows he's fucking fine. And I was just dicking about. Again, but in someone's feed, if you're in there, it's not like they're getting comedy, comedy, comedy, comedy, comedy,
Starting point is 02:01:42 and then your joke. They're getting, like, sport news. They're mates. Someone's fucking, and then bang, you're doing a joke. It's why I don't care. It's why I don't give a shit about the response, because it's not real. It's not about me.
Starting point is 02:01:53 It's not about anything, like, actual. They're just angry at something they've seen flash upon their face. The words. It's the words, and there's nothing behind it. So, like, the people who are, like, making death threats because I've said something about Chelsea, they ain't going to kill me. They'll fucking come at me.
Starting point is 02:02:08 No, but you know what I mean? They're just people sat at home mouthing off. It's not real. It's all just pantomime, isn't it? It's horrible, but it's like... It feels real at the time. You do have to sort of get to a point. Me and Carl were talking at one point
Starting point is 02:02:22 about using Studio 2 to start a football thing. I don't even know how it could work where one of us doesn't get death threats every week. You will. You just will. If you're talking about football on the internet, you just will. I get comments on random videos now.
Starting point is 02:02:39 Everything will be odd, like Chelsea fans. Chelsea fans in particular have really wound up. Yes, they'll pop up on everything. But like, it gives a shit. Can I just suggest just from a third party, look, a cheese podcast, because I think you've got that natural energy. You know, think about it.
Starting point is 02:02:55 What would we call it? We'll call it Cheddar's Sound and Goat of Fernandes. Two knobs, one cheese? Yeah, there you go. That's quite got some ominous. Oh yeah. I know. two knobs one cheese yeah there you go mate you that's quite got some ominous
Starting point is 02:03:07 oh yeah I know yeah deliberately a little bit more succinct than yours though two knobs two cheese that's worse you've made it worse

Starting point is 02:07:49 the thing is I understand why the strippers are like we're not doing the ironic couples thing tonight oh god

You're right, babe. I love your heels. And there's some guy like... It's sort of... They're the money makers. The last time I went was when I did the Birmingham Glee. And you know, the beer company reps, the Carlsberg rep was in that night with a mate.
Starting point is 02:08:19 And they were obviously on the company credit card. And they're like, we go to the Glee. We know all the managers. And I wanted to go for a beer and the staff weren't up for it sometime. I'd been out boozing with the staff from the company credit card. And they're like, we go to the Glee. We know all the managers. And I wanted to go for a beer and the staff weren't up for it. Sometimes I've been out boozing with the staff from the Birmingham Glee. So they were like,
Starting point is 02:08:30 oh, you should go out with like fucking Nobbed and his mate from Carlsberg. They're like, come on, it's all on us. We went to one. We would accept Carlsberg as a sponsor,
Starting point is 02:08:38 by the way. Well, we'd love them, but just like this guy was a bellend. They were like, we're going to go to a bars. We're going to like, we literally had one drink in the Glee. And then they were like we're gonna go to a bars we're gonna like we literally had one drink
Starting point is 02:08:45 in the glee and then they were like ah should we just go strippers and yeah I used to work with guys like that in sales
Starting point is 02:08:52 I don't know the guy I don't know his fucking mate we've not like had a night out and all of a sudden we're in there and he's more hammered than I'd realised
Starting point is 02:08:59 got in and they were ready to spend some money I just wanted to have a beer and let them and in my head I was like maybe we'll go for beers later and it all just fell off the track
Starting point is 02:09:07 and the girl came over and was like would you like a dance I was like no I'm alright I'm here with those two and they're getting dances so I'm just going to have a beer
Starting point is 02:09:14 she was like well why do you come to a strippers why do you come to this place and I was like that always does me I didn't want to go to a strippers when they're like obviously I'm not
Starting point is 02:09:24 I don't know how hard their lives and their jobs are, but when they come over to you with an attitude, like, like, like I owe them. Yeah. But some days I'm in. I've paid a tenant to get in.
Starting point is 02:09:37 I've paid seven quid for a warm beer. Fuck off and leave me alone. I just want to stand here and drink this. Why you not even want to sniff? I don't. Because I don't. It's Tuesday morning. It's the sniff zone.
Starting point is 02:09:50 I'm fine. I just want this shite beer. I'm here because they sold me this and nowhere else is still selling it. Now you, fuck off over there and dance on some other cunt. And then you have a little slip yeah and that's the sound of it
Starting point is 02:10:08 I spoke to a stripper about Theo Walcott once in Berlin and that's all true yeah his potential was never quite fulfilled was it so we walked in the strippers
Starting point is 02:10:18 and there was about ten of us and it was a Scottish girl and she's like I spoke to you oh you're from Liverpool I was like yeah and she went
Starting point is 02:10:24 who do you support I was like Everton and she went walcott like like the only place you knew how random would that be if she was doing it that's like do you like that she's the one who do you like this touch do you think he went to the world cup too young do you think eric's she's 2006. she's the one who bent paul's edward with the mummy thing ah right yeah she's dazed and in sex. She's the one who bent Paul's head with the mummy thing. Ah, right, yeah. Is she the one that spat in his mouth? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know this story. Because she spat in his mouth.
Starting point is 02:10:49 Because she was speaking to me for like 10 minutes, all footy, and she went, listen to me, are you going to get a dance? I was like, nah. And Paul went, I'll have one, and then she changed. That sums up the difference between you and Paul Smith so much. She spat in his mouth and went, mummy fucking, you like that?
Starting point is 02:11:01 And for you, she was like, Theo Walcott. Yeah, yeah, yeah. She knows her audience isn't it like he was in his everton kit i was in full heaven boots on you know why that's believable because he's always in football kit yeah just actually don't want to dance do i want to game with fucking heads and knees like last christmas i did a gig in leeds where like the there was a strip club on their Christmas party.
Starting point is 02:11:26 So all the dancers, they were there. They were all hammered. I was emceeing, so I'd chat to them, had a bit of a laugh with them. And this was when I knew I'd really grown as a person. And they invited me out afterwards to a lock-in at the strip club. And I just went home.
Starting point is 02:11:40 And I was like, that is personal growth. And I know five years ago, me, would have fucking hated this cunt i am now oh okay not a strip club yeah rob what come on yeah that's you don't say no to a lock-in at a strip i know i did i turned down a lock-in at a strip club mate i don't even like strip clubs but a lock-in is a magical time i imagine myself in that environment and i know who i am i cannot be in that environment and come out with it without something bad happening right good day to you yeah it was probably a strip club very quickly just becomes an orgy surely you know what if i'm involved just getting smashed up in pints of jizz
Starting point is 02:12:17 everywhere that's the eight-year-old boy in your head going just they're gonna turn so on they've had a long night at work they've been dancing on people and just they're going to turn on this no mate like they've had a long night at work they've been dancing on people and now they're with their mates and they're like do you know what i want mate this was their christmas party as well and they were like they were they were they were very forward these women you know they were these strippers yeah amazing like it was forward it was like it was one of those where it's like nothing good comes of me going to that strip club like nothing good who the fuck is it
Starting point is 02:12:46 they were very bashful these strippers oh would you like to have a oh no I couldn't possibly show you my pussy sniff that that's what I'm gonna

Starting point is 02:13:25 although he did piss on a police station Nile says alright lids if someone offered you one million pounds to live on a liquid based diet
Starting point is 02:13:33 for the rest of your lives would you do it or stick to your normal diet and be skint can I put a roast in it in a blender it's gotta be liquid
Starting point is 02:13:41 if you can make it a liquid I think it's fine yeah be fine how much water would you need to put in a roast you could do it with gravy yeah look you you bring a yorkshire boy on the pod this is what you fucking get that's a nesbitt smoothie like a lab but you could just like you don't have to put it all in at once you could just do the potatoes and then you just like there we go liquid potatoes then we meet you know what i mean liquid meat like i oh jesus beautiful i am a hundred percent saying no to this like no a million's not enough to ruin
Starting point is 02:14:17 yeah millions the rest of my life and like i don't drink anymore i don't smoke but i could do it food's like my only pleasure left i don't go to fucking strip club parties anymore i don't smoke but I could do it food's like my only pleasure left I don't go to fucking strip club parties anymore I don't do I don't have any fun all I've got is food don't take that off me yeah if you abstain from food I've got nothing left

Starting point is 02:14:38 erm I could I could do this I'm such a dickhead with food only a mil a million so Christmas day comes I did it for I did it for nearly six months on the Cambridge weight plan I could do this. I'm such a dickhead with food. Only a mil? A million. So Christmas Day comes and you're exactly fucking... I did it for nearly six months on the Cambridge weight plan.
Starting point is 02:14:50 The only problem... Yeah, but then you could... I was trying to lose weight, so I was eating food, to be fair. You can't sustain that, though, forever. And just liquid, forever. Do you remember when you... The thinnest I'd ever been
Starting point is 02:15:01 was when you came to my flat and we watched the Denver Broncos play the Panthers in the Super Bowl. That night got way out of hand. And my mate from Newcastle brought too much Coke down and I was at the absolute height
Starting point is 02:15:13 of my diet. And like high grade DJ grade as well. So I think I ended up, I woke up that morning like skeletal. That was the lightest I've ever been.
Starting point is 02:15:21 So this is the problem. The million pounds would be great but these liquid diets are seriously, you couldn't do it because you're already oh yeah it fucked me up like i'm i'm actively trying to gain weight at the moment and like i can't be doing that we're just fucking liquid what do you mean well you know you can't put weight on no i can but i've got a like you know i've got to make an effort to do it really you look like a long stee and he's doing the same yeah let me just notice that because it's the metabolism And he's cunt Yeah I've got

Starting point is 02:16:56 Sorry. Can you have a word with my neighbours or me, if you think I'm being a dick? We live in a shitty terrace house in Runcorn, so paper-thin walls and hearing your neighbours argue is the norm but one side we have neighbours who are constantly
Starting point is 02:17:08 having work done on the house. It sounds like they're going to come through the fucking walls and it's always after 5pm with no heads up and the other side
Starting point is 02:17:16 I have a neighbour who has a kid I can only describe as the spawn of Satan who are constantly having screaming matches and slamming the door. The fuckers only seven.
Starting point is 02:17:25 We plan to have a massive house party at the end of the summer to celebrate all the fuckery of the last year and a half being over, and we don't know whether to be considerate and let the neighbours know or fuck them and let it be payback. For reference, we are only in our 20s, and the neighbours are in their 40s, so not old enough that I'd look like I'm being a cunt to old Doris do you know what i mean yes i do uh thanks for the podcast i'm listening to the podcast so much you're turning this wool accent into a plastic scouser that's from samantha
Starting point is 02:17:53 randalls so it's got knobhead neighbors on either side and relate hard to this one coming i have a i live in a like a shitty terraced house in manchester and it's like proper thin walls and i've got like dickhead neighbors so i am on board with this so on one side like um i've got like for the whole of lockdown there was just like this kid who plays fortnight all day and just screams constantly all day every day through the wall just hearing that and that's the first lockdown for the whole first lockdown and on the other side there is this like fucking crazy old guy like the like the oldest dude i've ever seen he's like so hunched he's now like horizontal like he looks like a fucking set square like he like waddles around like that coming out to get his paper and he plays the radio at 3 a.m
Starting point is 02:18:41 every night on the news for an hour from three till four every single night full blast through like and you can just hear it all through the fucking world and turns it off at four at four it goes off yeah and like it's radio five live because i can hear it i can follow it along so i've been going insane with these on either side like just for the whole of fucking lockdown man it's just because you're just caged up inside it you just got dickheads either side and just getting more and more annoyed but like i think for this person take the high road i reckon go warn them and then just make a real fucking point of it that you're being better than them like i was you know i think that's how i'd go with it i don't know like i at this point
Starting point is 02:19:20 if you tell them and they're like i don't think you should do that you're not gonna not have the party well if they're bellins i think it's carte't think you should do that you're not going to not have the party if they're bellings I think it's carte blanche to just do your fucking party I think the issue isn't the party at all you don't tell them
Starting point is 02:19:32 about the party you need to sort of send them threatening letters in the meantime okay like newspaper cuttings with pictures of like
Starting point is 02:19:41 dead animals and stuff and just be like picture the kids yeah just to take photos of the kids? Yeah. Just to take photos of the kids like walking... When you go sinister, you really find a new like... Yeah, but like you don't say anything. You don't make the threat
Starting point is 02:19:53 because then that becomes legal then. But like you just take a picture of their kid playing at the end of the street, post them that with like some newspaper curtains going, is this little Johnny, is it? And that's it. Post them that. I think that's still
Starting point is 02:20:05 illegal I feel like this is still not okay what would they hang on but they'll open the letter and be like oh my god little
Starting point is 02:20:14 Johnny's been abducted and then they're like oh no he's there and then you send another one in a few days yeah but how are they going to know
Starting point is 02:20:20 this is connected to the noise what are they going to do oh he sent a photo of me kids I best turn the stereo down what the fuck you on about how is it connected well then you is connected to the noise? What are they going to do? Oh, he sent a photo of me kids. I best turn the stereo down.
Starting point is 02:20:25 What the fuck are you on about? How is it connected? Well, then you just lean over the fence one day and just be like, hey, turn that stereo down and, you know, things might get better and you just let that linger with them.
Starting point is 02:20:36 Fair to say you've not thought this one through that well. Something you couldn't say anyway. Two abduction layers without abduction. They need to put it together in their head. You've still got to live next door to this fucker after this incident's happened.
Starting point is 02:20:48 Yeah, but now they won't mess with you because they'll know you've got a camera just before you... My phone takes pictures don't fuck with me. And the printer.
Starting point is 02:20:58 Oh yeah. And newspapers. You've got money. Yeah. At least 60p a day. This guy's got a news agent yeah I like it make sure you wear gloves
Starting point is 02:21:10 when you do it so you don't leave any fingerprints on any of the stuff I'll tell you like my strategy for dealing with the noisy neighbours was to be a massive fan and never say out
Starting point is 02:21:18 oh well you send them up both threatening letters from each other make it look like no but you put DNA from each house who's look like no but you you put dna from each house who's dna testing these fucking letters when they do they're not gonna they'll think it's
Starting point is 02:21:32 two doors down the police don't do a dna test if there's been a fucking stabbing i don't know if you know but i wonder funded they are they don't do shit they might go private oh you've not lived in west car west darby csi i said it wrong didn didn't I, Carl? West Darby, it's in Ireland. Yeah. Don't even live there. Fucking bro. Gutted. I did once,
Starting point is 02:21:49 I got put in the back of a police van because we'd been out egging when I was a teenager. They put me in the back of a police van and this copper came up to me with this egg carton he'd found on the street and he was like, is this yours?
Starting point is 02:22:02 I was like, no. And he goes, is the DNA test they do going to say different? I was like, are you going to DNA test an egg box? And he was like, yeah.
Starting point is 02:22:10 I was like, okay then. And then you jizzed and drowned in him. In the third letter, just put like a bit of like next door's hair. How were you getting it? What?
Starting point is 02:22:20 The hair from next door. Ask them for it. In the night? They're not going to query it. Excuse me, love. Just knocking on. Can I have a cup of sugar and some of your hair?
Starting point is 02:22:28 Just ask them, can you come in and just get a bit like off the brush or something. Ask, can you use the toilet? Go to the bathroom, get some hair. Put it in the next letter
Starting point is 02:22:34 and say, I just want to know who this is from. Check this. Check this. Arson. That works. Not in a terraced house.
