Wag wag leads, you're listening to the funniest podcast in the game with Adam, Dan, Sensei Carl and Finn. Shut up, Finn. You good-looking, big-fingered Welsh weirdo.
Starting point is 00:02:17 This is the one and only, the now infamous, the soon-to-be legendary. Have a word. Go, Ed. Get on me. You all right? They're good. They're good. Carl's just done a hiccup stroke,
Starting point is 00:02:53 like pterodactyl impression that's freaked me out. Can you burp on demand? Not like... I can fart on demand. I can poo on demand. Strong start to the episode if you've never watched Have A Whip before. And you're like, bloody hell, is this the tone? It kind of is. Have A Wear before. Hello, my Watson fans. Bloody hell. Is this the tone?
Starting point is 00:03:06 It kind of is. We changed clothes in the second section, by the way. Yeah, we time travelled. You brought new clothes? Yeah, yeah. For last week. I'm wearing something. I can't remember what it is.
Starting point is 00:03:17 I don't wear the classic fuzzy tops. That's more your vibes, isn't it? I've seen it in the wardrobes. They haven't worn it. Oh, the vibe is very much there. I am like a rotation in occasionally it's kind of getting as much as it's my thing
Starting point is 00:03:29 it's kind of getting ruined now why? I don't know it's becoming everyone's thing I don't know I'm profiting off that I'd go classic rugby shirts from now on
Starting point is 00:03:37 I'm going classic tennis kits that Martino fire tennis kits classic tennis kits you get too turned on only at Wimbledon white though
Starting point is 00:03:44 I love tennis kits Wimbledon white though. I love tennis kits. Wimbledon. I was thinking about that a lot earlier. This kit, this, this match would be a phenomenal combo of shirts. If this had happened, I mean,
Starting point is 00:03:54 it couldn't have. It could. Oh, it could nearly have happened. In Argentina. 92, 93. This is late 80s,
Starting point is 00:04:01 I think. No, it's not. Is it midnight? 92, is it? It's in and around 94, 95, I think. Ian Rush? Is it mid 90s 92 is it It's in and around 94, 95 I think
Starting point is 00:04:06 Ian Rush Is it Is Ian Rush there It's definitely not late 80s I think this is 89 It's not 89 Let's google it 89 was the candy kits wasn't it
Starting point is 00:04:17 Liverpool Is that the away or the third This will be away I think Yellow added us away I'm saying 94 There it is That one Click that 94, 96 You're. That one. Click that.
Starting point is 00:04:25 94, 96. You're right. Oh, yeah, we've been starting for two years. Woo! So it could nearly have happened. That would have been one of the most visually satisfying matches. Batty goals Fiorentina with a seven-up sponsor. And that, which at the time I thought was a bit of monstrosity,
Starting point is 00:04:41 but now I can see it. Have you seen the band kit from this season because it's got nazi symbols on it it's got the swastika in it and it says fuck you's on the back hey like no one noticed the back but then when they saw the front like get rid of that because i don't read football shirts famously it's got like patterns in it that forms many swastikas yeah Right. Hopefully accidentally though. Right. Who's it made by?
Starting point is 00:05:08 It's this kid. Hugo Boss. It was Hugo Boss. It was actually the Nata uniform. It's got the SS symbol on the side as well. But no one noticed any of that. Very controversial. It is, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:05:19 When you stick swastikas on stuff, people get upset. Band Fiorentina kit. We've started very football heavy here. But I didn't know about it. I saw a TikTok about it today. It's on the top of the kit. Yeah, that's an... Oh, I've just seen it.
Starting point is 00:05:34 That is a total accident. Surely that's an accident. I don't know, you know. Are they fascist though? I don't know. Are they a fascist club? Who, Lotto? No.
Starting point is 00:05:43 Fiorentina? Yeah. It's Italy, isn't it? Lazio, aren't they? Italy. Yeah. It's all a bit fucking Nazi-ish, mate. Italy.
Starting point is 00:05:50 Because there's a lot of Nazi shirt collectors. Carl. I've been doing comedy again. I've been doing stand-up comedy. Back in the game. New material. Oh, right. An hour. But you have been doing... You've comedy back in the game. New material. Oh, right. An hour.
Starting point is 00:06:06 But you have been doing... You've not just had two months off. I don't feel like I've been doing it, though. Do you know what I mean? I feel like I've done a couple of gigs here and there. So just... Been down to London, done Dubai. I'd done the store at the end of July,
Starting point is 00:06:19 and that was just tour stuff, and that was great. And I went to Dubai and did essentially a tour show. Like, I'd done some of the tour, because it was an hour, and it was... You've I went to Dubai and did essentially a tour show. Like an add-on to the tour because it was an hour and it was, you know. You've been supporting me. I wanted to give you a chance.
Starting point is 00:06:29 You know, you're a young lad coming through. And the bit I tried opening for you, which was eight minutes long, which was the story of me and my ex's breakup and the stuff surrounding it. I did eight minutes before you
Starting point is 00:06:40 the other day, ish. And then I did it again. That was Sunday. And then on monday i did it again and it was 28 minutes and then i did it again last night and i was you don't need to do that again because that'll be an hour and a half then it's 45 minutes last night yeah which a worrying story sam's story 45 minutes i could do a tour show literally because it's not even peppered and whatever yeah what your dad in it what you put your you're doing now like that story no no it's 45 minutes beginning to end at the minute just the breakup story i could do it you whittle that down i will whittle it down at the minute it's very sort of
Starting point is 00:07:16 meandering and ponderous but if it feels the right tone to do that bidding um i had several messages last night from people going i've been to see you X amount of times. Tonight was my favourite time. And it was so different to anything else I've seen you do. And yeah, I'm trying to get it ready for the arena show,
Starting point is 00:07:35 but I don't know whether the cadence of it is going to suit 8,000 people. Hello, everyone. It's our user, bitch. Have you seen it you're gonna bring the fire surely you're gonna bring the fucking
Starting point is 00:07:49 energetic fire to the arena yeah but you're gonna bring your best stuff aren't you if that's what's working the best also it's all lids the arena show is gonna be all our lot they're very invested in that story when Adam finally told the story of that on a patreon the reaction was like oh finally it's like you know there's been
Starting point is 00:08:09 gossip but you've not been allowed to know what the gossip is like telling them every detail of it last night there's moments where like as an audience they went oh like that property i can see people like on the edge of the seat invested in the narrative of it and painting it and oh very good you have been doing stand-up but it's well exciting after a tour is that what you mean you're now doing real stand-up because you're like oh now we're building it yeah yeah yeah it's just i'm so bored of my act like the the stuff we filmed i'm bored of all of it i hate all of it even my favorite bits from the tour but yeah doing new stuff
Starting point is 00:08:46 for the past couple of nights I just really sort of happy with myself to be like I can go on stage and do an hour without really thinking it through
Starting point is 00:08:55 do you know what I mean like just how I'm just going to tell this story and then pepper it with a couple of unless she's in and then it's probably going to you know
Starting point is 00:09:01 two hours alright okay two hours yeah I haven't got sick of anything in the tour yet. There's a couple of bits that are newer and I'm enjoying more. And that's part of that same process, isn't it? I think by the end, I remember we went to Nando's and it was about a week after your tour finished
Starting point is 00:09:18 and you went, apropos of nothing, just went, ah, just really glad I don't have to say any of those words again. Yeah, yeah. And you'd obviously been thinking about the show gets in your head, apropos of nothing just went ah just really glad i don't have to say any of those words again yeah and you'd obviously been thinking about the show gets in your head doesn't it like someone asked a question and it's a very stand-up centric question which we get asked quite a lot but they're like how do you remember a full tour show or an edinburgh show how how do you do it is there like tricks to it and it's just experience when you start out i have sometimes struggle to remember 10 minutes yeah but like you are i have a mnemonic for me that's like naughty elephant squirt water the first letter of every routine um yeah because i
Starting point is 00:09:57 because i like shredder wheat i don't like to do them i used to do northeast southwest but that was too hard so i'll do naughty elephant Elephant Square. It's easier to remember. It's hard. When you first get your longer sets, just remembering where everything goes is actually part of the skill. After a while, remembering an hour, it's just experience, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:10:16 Watching Mnemonic. I love the fact that that's it. For me, Tor. See, you're taking me back to junior. Sorry, what was that? What's my new... What's my new monic? Adam's thinking about what he can't remember
Starting point is 00:10:29 about the new monic from his Tor. What was it? Do you know? So the first one's Tea for Terrorism. That's what I started with. Second one was... Is the show still in your head right now? Yeah, I could do the show.
Starting point is 00:10:43 It's so funny. Where's Will? Do you remember in It's so funny. Where's Will? Do you remember in May when I was... Where is Will? He's not... Where is he? Oh, he's the closest person to us on the camera. I'm so used to him being there already.
Starting point is 00:10:56 I did a preview in May where I got 40 minutes in and went, I don't know what the show is anymore. Sorry. It just wasn't in. And now I could literally do exactly the same thing just list it off i had a moment last night where so i went into a portion of the new set the new story and i was like it was towards the end and i still can't remember this bit and it's done me head in because i was going into it and obviously i don't write anything down i was
Starting point is 00:11:21 like right i'll do the jerry cinnamon story And then I'll end on this I remember having that thought And I'd done the Jerry Cinnamon bit And I was like I went to the audience I went there's another bit But I forgot I love new material nights
Starting point is 00:11:35 And I can't Even now Can't remember what I was going to do Was it the Archery story? Oh my god No I opened my stuff How do you not write stuff down?

Starting point is 00:16:34 For me, I... Look, I don't think I could deal with going swinging, right? But if I was talked into it, there'd definitely be lines. If she come back and told me she had a tongue up her man's arsehole, I'm never talking to her again. Leave the house it's gonna be a difficult first kiss afterwards isn't it yeah oh i'm really annoyed at you but i don't go to sleep angry no tongues lauren like you're asking me to like project forward if you're genuinely into swinging to the point where you're like,
Starting point is 00:17:05 you're going off banging someone and I'm going off banging someone, it would be really weird to then start setting really stringent rules. Like, I have very strict rules about what you're allowed to do when you're off in an Audi fucking whatever getting banged. Like, A4. Do they fuck in the car? Do they not go to each other's houses? I think they go to each other's houses, yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:24 I prefer the swinging When you're all there together You know? That's a gangbang No it's Swinging in a different room And all That's what I thought

Starting point is 00:17:55 their tongue up a man's bum just it's that it's where you live your life mate no I want to do the I want to do the swinging when we're all in the same
Starting point is 00:18:03 you know in a big house you know like when someone comes over to like fix the boiler or service the swing and when we're all in the same, you know. In a big house.

Wag Wag Lids was reminiscing with the family and we got into talking about our earliest memories and whether they were good or bad. My earliest memory was being in a soft play in Butlins when I was reminiscing with the family and we got into talking about earliest memories and whether they were good or bad. My earliest memory was being in a soft play in Butlins when I was about three and getting launched down a slide by some fat older kid and nearly breaking my neck.
Starting point is 00:40:33 So obviously it's a bad one. I was just wondering, what are your earliest ever memories or earliest memories that you remember being really good or really shit or terrifying? Cheers, Lits. Falling off a lilo in Gran Canaria. As a child. Cheers, Lits. Falling off a lilo in Gran Canaria. As a child?
Starting point is 00:40:47 That was last week. Because he banged his head really hard and he's lost all his memory. How old were you? Four. In the sea? Or in a pool?
Starting point is 00:40:56 In a pool. But in the deep end though. And I fell off and I panicked and my auntie Sue came and put me back on it and it was fine. You stayed in the water?
Starting point is 00:41:09 I did. That's lovely. I just got back on the lila constant panic attack having little kids around fucking swim pools it was when we were there in mallorca in uh april just just watching jack not know where the danger was lauren never relaxed the whole time that is a like having a swimming pool in your back garden i don don't know how people do it. It must, in America where they've all got it. It's so fucking stressful if you've got little kids. That is my worst nightmare. Just going,
Starting point is 00:41:33 where's the baby? Fuck. Awful. Swimming. Oh no, I've got a slightly earlier memory, but I've told you this before, and it's a confabulated memory.
Starting point is 00:41:41 When I thought the baddies from Home Alone 3 were showing us around our house. You won the Olympics in 1938. And Hitler was in the stand and you were like, fuck you, Hitler. You beat Jesse Owens in the race, but no one saw it. Fuck you, Jesse. I've got a memory of being in Florida when I was five.
Starting point is 00:41:57 We were staying in a chalet and the insane storms, digga. We caught one of them in the car and we couldn't recognise the chalet because it was the first day. So we didn't know where we in the car and we couldn't recognise the chalet because it was the first day so we didn't know where we were staying and we just kept driving
Starting point is 00:42:08 to the block for like half an hour trying to find out where we were staying and then we were just getting dead scared thinking like I've never going to
Starting point is 00:42:15 live anywhere ever again where was this? Florida and then someone recognised like a a storm in Florida? not like a like a piss
Starting point is 00:42:22 like during rains it's insane for like an hour. We couldn't find the house. I was scared, thinking, oh, we live in this car now. And then someone recognised the hosepipe and we found the house.
Starting point is 00:42:32 And it was like, when you're little, the most insane relief from the stupidest things. I love kids' perception of time is so bananas, isn't it? You're in a car for half an hour, like, that's it.
Starting point is 00:42:41 My life's different now. I live in a car. I can't even conceive of what life was like 35 minutes ago how long will this continue maybe another 10 minutes gal but i've got quite a poor man i always think my when i look back my memories are like me looking at a picture yeah and i'm in the picture but i'm not i'm just looking at a picture but i think that's a memory right i know what you mean i know what you mean like watching a video of myself when i was a kid in my eye i'm like i remember that but i don't i remember watching the video i think i remember pooing my pants during the war when during the
Starting point is 00:43:12 war when the first when the first bombs dropped you're like what i was playing xbox um it's confabulated that might be confabulated yeah the the Xbox wasn't out Until like the late 2000s Oh yeah Late 2000s Cut Cut it out Cut it out Too fast
Starting point is 00:43:34 It's too fast Microsoft Microsoft All over us Do you not remember from houses? I suppose it's a bit different Because we We moved houses
Starting point is 00:43:44 So Like if I want to try and remember as early, I have to remember the house. We used to live in a place called Ribble Bank in Penwitham, which is near the bank of the Ribble. It's not complicated. But that's the first house I can remember. And that's how I get my earliest memories.
Starting point is 00:44:02 There was a power station down by the river that got demolished, I suppose. But obviously I was too young to have that explained to me. So one of my earliest memories is just sitting in the back room at Ribble Bank and then there was an earthquake. There was literally the whole house was fucking going. It was the most mental thing ever. And they were like, it's fine, it's fine.
Starting point is 00:44:23 Power station's been demolished. Loads of rubble on Ribble Bank. And after that it was called most mental thing ever and they were like it's fine it's fine power station's been demolished loads of rubble on Ribble Bank and after that it was called Rubble Bank they changed it's name I said Rumble Rumble caused a lot of rubble just absolutely fire sometimes I also found a dead rat
Starting point is 00:44:41 on Ribble Bank that's all going up on the Ribble Bank these are my earliest memories someone giving a fucking what um like a bit of a birthday cake
Starting point is 00:44:51 to Donald Heard at my what might have been my third or fourth birthday party hang on someone your age called Donald Heard
Starting point is 00:44:57 yeah yeah yeah the Heards yeah Amy Heard and Donald Heard I went to primary school with them oh I thought Donald Heard was like
Starting point is 00:45:04 a celebrity I hadn't heard of. Why would he be at my third or fourth birthday party? Because the 80s were dead paedophilic and rapey. Yeah, we had Jimmy Savile. But you said Donald Heard like it was a known name. You said, oh, I remember someone giving something to Donald Heard. I'm sorry. When we do Cardinal Heenan, Memory Lane,
Starting point is 00:45:21 you do all sorts of fucking names. We don't name anyone because they're all murderous. Yeah, that's true. Keep that name in your fucking mouth. Donald Hare. I found a rat on the grid and just went, ah, look at that. Picked it up, just walked home.
Starting point is 00:45:35 Oh, you absolute weirdo. Walked in, must have been about three. I knew not to touch rats from an early age because we had loads in the back garden. Dovey was festering. There was loads of rats. I'm not even messing. Even in the back garden. Dovey was festering. There was loads of rats. I'm not even messing. Even in the swim pool?
Starting point is 00:45:49 We didn't have a swim pool. Oh, yeah. I had a rope swing hanging from the tree, though, with a tyre on it. Oh, you lucky fucker. Yeah. And it was close enough to the extension wall. So our bathroom was an extension,
Starting point is 00:46:04 and it was the same on the entire estate. So the extension bathroom was an extension and it was the same in the entire estate. So the extension would stick out and you could kick yourself off the extension and back to it. We had a rope swing in the woods near our house. I don't know who set it up. I think it had been passed down generations. It was one of those epic ones
Starting point is 00:46:20 where it was quite steep. And if you pushed off, you were fucking literally 20-30 metres from the ground at one point if it had broke you could have died everyone was like
Starting point is 00:46:30 yeah let's get down the woods and definitely swing on that shit we didn't go to the woods no why? because you went down to the woods you got a big surprise yeah
Starting point is 00:46:38 there's loads of bears having a picnic there's a gay guys loads of fat g a picnic is there gay guys loads of fat gays lots of fat gays having a picnic have you bought

Tremaine. You all right?

Starting point is 00:48:01 tremaine says taking a break from being the poet laureate, my favourite thing to eat is my wife's pussy, closely followed by black pudding. Never. Can't call it that. Is that an arsehole? Snip, snip. Snip, snip. Closely followed by black pudding.
Starting point is 00:48:22 Never had the nerve to ask if I can combine the two. What would be your mid-stroke during sex snack? I mean, Christopher, the question is, without any of the preamble, what would be your mid or during sex snack? But you have really enjoyed taking us down black pudding lane. Just wait for the period. You can do both.
Starting point is 00:48:51 God, God. I'm just trying to fucking fix the world over here. Oh, Lord. He's lying, though, isn't he? Can we call bullshit on Tremaine? What's really bad there is that Carl's basically just called his wife a pig as well. I don't know his wife. Oh. Listen,
Starting point is 00:49:09 I really like eating pussy, right? I don't think you can start, you know, stuffing your wife and improving
Starting point is 00:49:19 the experience for anyone. I thought it was like a... Yeah, a break. Yeah. That's the way Chris been all. No, I thought he was treating her like a fucking Christmas that's the way Chris been all pussy no I thought he was
Starting point is 00:49:25 treating her like a fucking Christmas turkey and filling her with sage and onion and stuffing a goose inside the pussy I mean that's nailed

Starting point is 00:55:57 it was good. Well done. Cut it out. Cut it out. Max Rutherford says, Wag Wag Lids, Max from the golf club here, or formerly from the golf club here Or formerly from the golf club
Starting point is 00:56:06 Now Just been made Redundant From the money grabbing Money laundering Tory cunts Allegedly That I work for
Starting point is 00:56:13 Having had you lids Tell me what to do When I get to the club Lion handgun On first tee He's just put it in brackets Just to sum up the advice I think I'm going to get a gun as well

Starting point is 00:56:33 See you in December, Lids, at the live show. Big love from Max from the golf club. Simple solution. Just let the line loose on the golf course now. Now you've left. And just shoot the odd person on the way out
Starting point is 00:56:45 yeah is that you go to prison though get on the golf course for murder before for murder that's quite a long sentence
Starting point is 00:56:53 that one get on the golf course before it opens one day poo in every hole right you'll need Adam for that this is very rarely
Starting point is 00:57:03 very rarely do we have the same advice but i'm not joking that was exactly what came to my head yeah but in my head you were like i haven't got enough shit for 18 holes i could pinch one off i could do one and two we can do every golf course in the northwest if you think me i need the boys. Max, we'll all come down. We'll bring Adam. He's the whole back nine. We've got normal humans with normal bowels.
Starting point is 00:57:31 We'll do the front nine. Pooing in golf courses, special. Yes. Lads, I'm not sure about this. Get that strawberry out of your arse. We're going down the golf course. Yeah, poo in every hole. Poo in every hole Or collect some poo
Starting point is 00:57:46 Over a period of days Don't do that That's worse No it's not What are you doing Max Just picking up poo No your own poo You only need 19 days Dan
Starting point is 00:57:55 Right Or if you're like me You need like 3 19? Am I biting? You nearly did Oh I nearly bit You kind of nibbled on it.
Starting point is 00:58:05 I had a little nibble. I thought you were being special. I think that's literally... Yeah, poo in all your holes. Hole in one on that advice. Like shove it in, but like some kind of stick as well. So like it's all over the gaff
Starting point is 00:58:18 because you could probably scoop it out if it's easy. Plunge it in. They won't know until the ball's... You just let them pick the ball out and it's covered in shite. If you just plop in the hole, they're going to go, oh, well done, Trevor.
Starting point is 00:58:28 Imagine how gutted you'd be with that hole in one. Great pop there. Thanks, guys. Looks like my handicap's not too bad today. Oh, God. Dilute it. Dilute it. That'd be even worse.
Starting point is 00:58:40 Oh, yeah. Make a little squash. Like, shit squash. Wow, Finn. I like it. You want it to be as lumpy as possible. There's a reason you've not had a mic. even worse make a little squash like shit squash no wow Finn I like her you want it to be as lumpy as possible there's a reason you've not had a mic okay
Starting point is 00:58:50 oh you don't need to you don't need to dilute Adam's plop just get a fucking spade and just tap on loads of holes in the greens that's good as well Carl yeah or murder

Starting point is 01:02:13 because I did a show in, well, I was in Yorkshire last night. Where in Yorkshire? Ilkley. Ilkley? Ilkley, more Bartat? Yeah. What? Which is a song, it's about not having a hat on, isn't it? Is that what thatat. Yeah. What? Which is a song
Starting point is 01:02:25 that's about not having a hat on, isn't it? Is that what that means? Yeah. It's the sort of thing your grandad... Yeah,
Starting point is 01:02:29 as I said that, I knew it would just fucking annoy and melt minds. What the fuck are you talking about? What were the words? Say it again.
Starting point is 01:02:36 Ilkley, more Bartat. It's the sort of song your grandad sings, but then he's dead in the end, isn't he? Yeah,
Starting point is 01:02:42 he is. He died in Ilkley I took a punt on your grandad being dead he's not he's not dead I've actually got one you've still got one left
Starting point is 01:02:50 but he's not the better one yeah I'm down to one grandma but it's also not the better one oh yeah just spiders I'm all dead as of very recently
Starting point is 01:02:58 Ilkley Moorbar Tat yeah Ilkley like a lot of people from Bradford go up there apparently isn't it it's your Bradford it's your
Starting point is 01:03:04 it's your North Bradford it's your Ilkley exactly I was going to say it's your go up there apparently, innit? It's your Bradford, it's your... It's your North Bradford, it's your Ilkley. Exactly. I was going to say it's your Leeds, but I've got a separate gig in Leeds. Did you have to get shit-faced in Ilkley? Is that what you're saying? I think it's fair to say I didn't have to.
Starting point is 01:03:14 When in Rome. Yeah, but I mean, I don't know if... I can't really blame it on Ilkley. You tell Mark that I'm hungover as well. Right. Mark, Adam says that he's a bit hungover as well. Okay, ask him how he got hungover. What happened?
Starting point is 01:03:25 He was in Ilkley as well. He did a rival tour show. I thought the numbers were a bit hungover as well. Okay, ask him how he got hungover. What happened? He was in Oakley as well. He did a rival tour show. What's Oakley? I thought the numbers were a bit low for me there. What's Oakley? It's a town in Yorkshire, lad. West Yorkshire. Going towards North Yorkshire.
Starting point is 01:03:35 Small one. And there's a moor next to it called Oakley Moor. If you go up it without a hat, you're up Oakley Moor by a tat. There you go. Yeah, fair enough. That's everyone. Northern gibberish. Do you know how it without a hat you're up Ilkley Moorbat at there you go yeah fair enough that's everyone Northern Gibberish
Starting point is 01:03:47 can you do you know how it goes the song Ilkley Ilkley Ilkley Ilkley Ilkley Ilkley
Starting point is 01:03:53 Moorbat I think that sort of thing I'm not good I'm not always good with the tune but I think yeah yeah yeah
Starting point is 01:04:01 you beat me in the So You Think You're Funny semi-final in 19... He doesn't stop going on about this, by the way. He was fuming when I told him. 1912, 1912. It was 1912 because we had the centenary a few years ago. The Titanic sunk six years prior.
Starting point is 01:04:17 The Lusitania had just gone down. He mentions this quite a lot. He does. When I told him you were coming in, he's like, that fucking prick beat me. I don't deserve it. You've just got to move on With your life haven't you
Starting point is 01:04:26 No Every success you've had I thought should have been mine Is that Is that what's going to happen Genuinely Did you win the final Mark Run her up in the final
Starting point is 01:04:33 To Nina Conti No she was third It was a bloke called Matthew Osborne Who won it And he was Matthew Osborne First ever live comedy club
Starting point is 01:04:40 That we went to He was on Do you remember him With the glasses He was a doctor With a stone He was a retired doctor he had the opener
Starting point is 01:04:46 with a suit on yeah oh yeah yeah he was fascinating because he was one of these you sometimes get these people win a competition
Starting point is 01:04:52 he was rave and funny but he had no interest in actually being a comedian he just entered it for the hell of it yeah and then everyone was saying what are you going to do next
Starting point is 01:04:58 and he was like like Jack Heel who won the Chortle Comedy Award it happened surprisingly often yeah someone's great at it and then they've got five minutes and then they just piss off
Starting point is 01:05:05 and just become a jewellery. Jack Seale beat Simon Baird, Chris Ramsey, Danny McLaughlin and someone else in the final. So Matthew Osborne actually went on to do
Starting point is 01:05:15 professional work for about three years. Yeah. Got a look at the circuit and then as a pretty intelligent person went, nah, that's not how I want to make a living.
Starting point is 01:05:23 And then just disappeared. He worked in a jewellery store I think or something and our final it was rod uh greg davis again it was a good lineup and he rinsed everyone he was clear winner but yeah as you say he had a bit of a go at doing stand-up and thought now you have to he hated going anywhere that was part of his problem i think he didn't want to ever do gigs that took him further than his hat bit like adam sleeping in the studio i suppose yeah but there have been in in your career in our career we've known people who are super talented and then they just sort of they don't it's not that they're not funny they're dead funny they just sort of don't suit the life like uh i don't want to be on the m62 all the fucking time and it it sort of makes sense it's how you whittle down like truly great comics are not just good at
Starting point is 01:06:03 comedy they've also had to put up with a fucking ridiculous lifestyle and been able to put up with it. I'd say that, like, how much you stick at it is more important than the raw talent you start with, for sure. Like, more of it is hard work than actual. Because there's loads of people who are good, but as you say, there is... There's some people who are shy to work too hard, though,
Starting point is 01:06:21 and need to stop. Unfortunately, that's also true, yeah. You've got to stick at it unless you're shit and then you should leave. But we've not really got a filtering system for that. It's hard to tell people. No, it's the freest form of art. The cull.
Starting point is 01:06:32 I think every year a council of comedians should be brought together and enforce the cull. That would be so good. Mark Watson, Adam Rowe and Dan Nightingale, sit down and you just, there's 20 got to get relegated. Name them, go on. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:45 And the way you were, I will start with, the way you find out is, I reckon you just get, it's like the mafia, you just get a tap on the shoulder or something, you're just walking down the street
Starting point is 01:06:54 and someone just, you just get given like a Tesco uniform. Yeah, yeah, and someone says, I'm sorry, I think you're on your way to a gig
Starting point is 01:07:01 and you get there and your name's not on it and it turns out you've been there. Or like a room and it's just a staff room of a modison's when they pick a like pick the england squad and there's always two or three players that like thought they were going and the manager actually calls them personally and says i'm sorry you've not made it like it should be that maybe like we actually have to phone them up and say oh definitely adam this is a tough phone call to make but you're not a comedian anymore i'm quite happy to be there i like breaking bad news
Starting point is 01:07:28 yeah i think you'd love it he'd do it on a group call like lads you fucked is it 20 every year there's so many comedians now it's gonna it's got to be at least that many i think cold i think it's 20 and then it goes up by 20 on top of that every year so it it's 20, 24. Right. 28.4. Right, until we're, yeah. Until we're down to eight comedians. No one expected 28.4 there, to be fair. It's also wrong. It's 28.8, but I didn't want to correct myself.
Starting point is 01:07:53 Fair enough, yeah. Steve wanted to. Yeah. The competitions are a bit batshit, aren't they? Because they teach you from a young, like a early age that you, like I always felt like it was a bit unhealthy, sat at the back hoping everyone died on a bill.
Starting point is 01:08:07 It's not really, it's not really what stand-up's about. Stand-up's about you being the best act, I get it. Like you're very competitive. Everyone likes being a very good comedian, but I want everyone else to do well. I want the crowd to have a good,
Starting point is 01:08:19 it's a weird thing at the comps where you're like, die, say something wrong, die. Every laugh, like your competition gets you like, you fucking prick. It's not even that good of a joke you fucking there was one-on-one and uh and part of it was the bloke before me it just died so much that just whoever was next on was gonna have a great gig and backstage you're thinking yeah you think i feel for this guy but also this is absolutely playing into my hands and again that's i felt dirty having that thought i don't think even if
Starting point is 01:08:45 you're competitive you're not in a club watching someone die thinking right this will be easier for me but in this competition yeah you've got a thing like that like i don't even think it's good having someone die if you're on a on a comedy club bill or if you've got a support act having someone die i suppose if you don't know stand up you might think oh well you're gonna look dead good now you're like no because it can fucking weird out a gig just a grim atmosphere around the whole building yeah like you want everyone to do dead well and then you go fucking blast would you ever throw someone under the bus if they've died would you ever go on and be like what the fuck was that i had chris addison emceeing though in that competition so it was perfect because not only did the guy die but then he went on
Starting point is 01:09:20 immediately lifted it again there's a relief in the room yeah you're right if i got on straight after the the death then you're in if I'd gone on straight after the death then you probably are I think if someone dies there has to be some sort of acknowledgement professional courtesy
Starting point is 01:09:34 and also you have to acknowledge it you can't be like hey well done because the crowd are fuming it's difficult every time I've MC'd when someone's properly died
Starting point is 01:09:44 it flashes through your head to just ignore it, but then... No, you can't. If you're comparing, the audience has to trust you. Yeah. And if you go on and go,
Starting point is 01:09:54 that was great, the audience is like, no, it isn't, and now we think you're a fucking moron. Yeah, I've had it in competition. I've hosted competitions quite a lot, like student ones and stuff, and you do,
Starting point is 01:10:02 yeah, you lean quite heavily on going, these guys are great, you know, they're all great new talents, and if the first guy is shit, And you do, yeah, you lean quite heavily on going, these guys are great. You know, they're all great new talents. And if the first guy is shit, like you say, Adam, you can't then be like,
Starting point is 01:10:10 told you, you have to say, all right, some of them are shit. These guys are great. And then you have a list in front of you and names you've clearly read him for the first time.
Starting point is 01:10:18 These guys are amazing. You're in for a great night. Two or three of these would be good. Yeah. Well, it's Dave, Dave Johns, famously,
Starting point is 01:10:24 John Bishop wrote about in his book, when I was the sound tech, when I was in the competition with you, when I was starting out 2002, great night two or three of these would be good yeah well it's dave dave john's uh famously john bishop wrote about in his book when i was the sound tech when i was in the competition with you when i was starting out 2002 that was when i was the sound tech at the hyena in newcastle yeah dave john's compared john bishop on john bishop was a year and a half in and he was already getting paid work he was just very very good yeah just naturally good but hadn't got much experience. Rough night at the High Year in Newcastle. John Bishop was opening and John went on. He was very slow paced and like laconic. Is that the right word?
Starting point is 01:10:53 Just super relaxed and not what the Geordie crowd wanted. After they'd had Dave John's compare for about half an hour. Incredibly well. A million words a minute. A million words. So creative. So in the room and then john bishop just rolls off he only loves gold does he love copper i haven't seen that for more
Starting point is 01:11:12 than a decade but immediately it comes back but john bishop died there's no two ways about it it was a bit of a stinker and dave bishop walked on away john's there dave john's day bishop dave john's bishop dave john's Dave Fisher just let me finish the story you pack of cunts whoa he went I'll break it's alright
Starting point is 01:11:31 Dave's back Dave's back I'm like I'm like an emergency comp hair break here instead in case of shit
Starting point is 01:11:38 first act and fucking hell it's so that's not just acknowledge it that's that's throwing someone on the bus but I don't mind John Bishop mentioned that's not just acknowledge it that's that's throwing someone
Starting point is 01:11:45 on the bus and i don't mind john bishop mentioned that can you just ask adam not to interrupt you again if you're doing a story yeah what would this the podcast wouldn't exist mark oh yeah i forgot that the podcast one is adhd and his pal like a word i agree that uh if you get to the level of saying in case of first first acting shit then that is a little bit more than no it's a so next time i saw we were in chester at a gig john bishop dropped in and i was there and i'd compared him on and john was like oh cool that's so nice that dan's compared me on he was the sound tech and you're like i didn't know this was brought up 10 years later john bishop goes dan used to be a sound tech that's how he got into comedy it's really nice now right yeah yeah yeah he's a big name they're dead chuffed to see him and he was like i remember when i was in newcastle i got compared on by a guy called it's
Starting point is 01:12:34 all there he retold the story perfectly because dave john was like i don't give a fuck who this guy is he's done badly i'm gonna make a little joke at his expense. John Bishop has then got really famous and had remembered every fucking ounce of that story. One day, James Jones sees him on the telly and thinks, If you die on your ass, you'd remember that more than a lot of the good gigs you have. And especially if you knew. And then the compere cuts you off.
Starting point is 01:12:57 Yeah. That's a whole other layer, isn't it? Yeah. Yeah. But I also don't, I don't hate it. If I died on my ass
Starting point is 01:13:03 and the compere went back on after me and was like, that was fucking shite. You're 10, 12 years in, you've been on telly, you're dead successful. When you're two years in, you're doing your first professional,
Starting point is 01:13:12 you're very, everything's dead important. I never did the hyena. Because of that reputation, not specifically that night, but it was, when I was starting out, it was seen as the most frightening club.
Starting point is 01:13:23 Also, I didn't have enough money to get to newcastle to be fair but and the frog in manchester had the same sort of it did and the first time i played i was terrified for that reason it was quite a benign night and i thought what was all the frogs fine yeah frogs good when you when you're starting out again certain clubs have this this you know like in my head the hyena was hundreds people like a real snake pit and you'd you'd you imagine people basically, as soon as you walked on and opened your mouth,
Starting point is 01:13:47 people just screaming for your butt. But a lot depends on just the night. Fucking shite, mate. Fucking shite. The guy that stood on the table. Get off the table. And nobody shite at the bounce was like, I know he's shite, but you can't stand on the table.
Starting point is 01:13:59 Full volume, everyone listening. The hyena was bad. Like, I mean, when i got down to the frog everyone's like oh the frog's a bit mate but a really rowdy club yeah is a is is a rough one it is something isn't it and i think you've got to just when you're young there's a bit of fearlessness you're like oh yeah bring it on like if i'd been in the area and i'd have the opportunity i probably would have because it's almost as though if you know a club is meant to be wild like that a part of you's just like when you're 25 you think go on and throw me in i'm
Starting point is 01:14:28 not scared of these guys yeah then i reckon i'd be worried about that now because when no one knows you are a death doesn't hurt that much does it you just fuck up home also i when i was young because that's how i grew up i was more intimidated by the fringe because with the fringe you get a load of comedy fans people who work in the industry and they sit there and go go on then and then you basically yeah you you all your limitations are on show because everyone's listening to all of your bullshit it does i i found it easier in the bear pits because i was like i've got bits about drinking and fingering and it worked really well for the first three four years i used to be his opener i've got bits about fingering and drinking i know it's paraphrasing
Starting point is 01:15:05 but I basically did it was dross but it worked really well I used to go up to the fringe and find it as you say you've got suddenly it's like people are like I will politely listen to everything you've got in your brain for an hour and you're like oh shit hang on
Starting point is 01:15:19 what about the drinking and fingering stuff maybe you shouldn't have called your fringe show more stuff about drinking and fingering I actually think that'd do quite well now. It would be a great name for Fringe. As long as you've been to Oxford or Cambridge and you're like, I've got a show called Drinking and Fingering, everyone will be like,
Starting point is 01:15:30 oh my God, so interesting. 20 minutes in, it's a bit challenging. 40 minutes in, it's a twist where it turns out you were fingered in childhood. It's all there. I'm tempted to do the Fringe next year as like a half run, as a work in progress.
Starting point is 01:15:42 And I think I want to do the story about my mum again, which was in my debut show. That was shit because I wasn't good enough to do it. And I think I might just call the show My Dead Mum. Yeah. Just really on the nose. The only problem with that is all the other shows called My Dead Mum in the Fringe, it'll be confusing for everyone.
Starting point is 01:15:59 No, there's not going to be many of them. I don't know. You don't reckon? I don't know. Weirdly, there is a chance. I'll scout you up then. Me ma's dead. Yeah yeah there you go yeah me mars dead lad yeah yeah and then maybe a poster of you with your dead mum or something like yeah we'll workshop it i guess i want to play me mum i'm just i just sit down in the theater to watch my mars dead lad five stars by the way. Incredible. We saw on Twitter that you've been trying to develop a pressure group
Starting point is 01:16:27 to sort out the fucking rents at the Fringe. Yeah, well, that's just not me developing, but basically there was a meeting. Can you just pull the mic into you a little bit? Oh, yeah, a mile away from it. Actually, they said a fist away, and it'll be a fucking hell of a fist. It's a hell of a fist.
Starting point is 01:16:42 You'd have to have something wrong with your hand. Feel free to pull it towards you. It is. The mic is fancy in that you can do... It's very fancy. The arm, it's on his long. Yeah, well, I went to a meeting where someone from the fringe society was saying,
Starting point is 01:16:54 like, how much evidence can you gather of people's rents going up madly over the past three years? I've basically just been asking people to name, like... And sometimes it is, like, even with inflation, it's like, the flat cost two grand more than three years ago oh wow just feel like there's loads of those and it's just if you don't know the fringe is incredible and it's wonderful and it's great to be a part of but it feels like somewhere along the way it got skewed to how the fuck is someone's
Starting point is 01:17:22 getting very rich off people trying to be comedians. That was an interesting moment with the bell. It keeps like jingling. It keeps jingling. It's doing me, Adam. Because you're doing this. Adam's bought property in Edinburgh and he rents it out during the fringe.
Starting point is 01:17:36 He's like, I'm not fucking. Yeah. That was the landlord. Calling bullshit. Shut up, Dan. And when the tenants need something, they pull a cord and the bell rings here. And then Adam pulls
Starting point is 01:17:47 another cord. Yeah. And someone else goes and does it. 2,800 quid I spent on a two bedroom flat that was fine. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:17:55 Fine. It's fucking horrific. It's mental. It's mad. I heard that and thought, oh, three grand, that's not too bad. Your sense of what is normal.
Starting point is 01:18:04 That's 2018 so has it gone boo loose I turned up sorry on this I turned up the Southside Property Management
Starting point is 01:18:12 who by all accounts are a nightmare to deal with and I just booked with them because I didn't know what I was doing and I turned up and there was a homeless fella
Starting point is 01:18:19 asleep on the stairs like right next to my like flat front door he would have paid a grand and a half I took a photo and sent i sent it to south side property manager it was like a
Starting point is 01:18:31 there's a fella asleep in there in the square way property details this is uh this wasn't on the website and they said wake him up and ask him to leave yeah problem solved oh ask him yeah he said no ah's a guy shooting up out here well take it off him don't let him do that it's a problem and i think like the the trouble is there's things they can do like the council could put a cap on it or whatever but it does come down to a small number of really greedy people owning property which is where a lot of the world's problems come down to a small number of really greedy people owning property, which is where a lot of the world's problems come down to, I suppose. And there's also, again, this is where the cull will be handy. There's so many people doing the fringe,
Starting point is 01:19:11 the demand's always there for accommodation, so they know they can take the piss. I think that's the problem. If we all just didn't do it for a year, though, if we all just went, no, then it's fucked, isn't it? Oh, let's just move it. Let's just not do it. Let's just randomly choose A-Town's just not do it let's just randomly choose
Starting point is 01:19:25 8 hour Ilkley let's have the Ilkley International Fringe Festival and go Betty's Tea Room would be like the loft bar
Starting point is 01:19:33 it would be fucking brilliant 20,000 people descend on Ilkley suddenly that would be phenomenal yeah I I've I love going up there but someone is making
Starting point is 01:19:43 way too much money also there's other there's other people making money not last time I was up there about 10 years ago I was at the Fringe and just middle of the afternoon we had this, are they called tenements in Edinburgh and Glasgow they're basically old Victorian high rises
Starting point is 01:19:58 really nice, like 5 bedroom flats or whatever, just got a knock one afternoon and these three rough looking edinburgh lads were like right we're here to clean the windows and i was like like a knob and i was like okay cool come in thank you clean windows are great they had literally like a squeegee and a bucket and nothing else and then walk they were like just quickly walked into all the rooms and i was like oh they're all cleaning windows by climbing onto the ledge we were like just quickly walked into all the rooms. And I was like, oh, they're all cleaning windows.
Starting point is 01:20:26 By climbing onto the ledge, we were like four floors up. And they were like, so you're doing the fringe? Oh, Marta, are you doing a show? I was like talking to one of them while the others were having a good old fucking rummage. A good old look. Did you get robbed? Well, I don't actually think they got anything. Like no one, like I was like sort of worked out what had happened no one was missing i think my i think my ipod nano
Starting point is 01:20:52 went but that might not have been a bad thing like it's a bad day at the fucking window cleaning burglary office you come away with is a nano yeah nano little pedo that's disappointing isn't it yeah yeah the window's still there you didn't notice that they didn't take the window window cleaning i'm such a yes come in clean window you'd have been like lads fuck off where's your permit i don't respect window cleaners get out what is that if someone turned up to clean my windows and i hadn't booked them i'd be like no indoors no in a rental though indoor Indoor window cleaning? Yeah, of course, if it was your house, you'd know that no one had booked it.
Starting point is 01:21:30 But in my head, I was like, oh, it's the landlord. The landlord's really conscientious. Once the inside of the window's cleaning. Oh no, they got out onto the ledge and cleaned the outside. Like, this is how we do it. You don't want to say. I feel like this is very much on you, this one, you know. Yeah, I'm a dickhead, yeah. That's what I'm saying. I was like, I'm in. I'm the same though. It's funny, very want to say- I feel like this is very much on you, this one, you know. Yeah, I'm a dickhead, yeah. That's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 01:21:46 I was like, I'm in. I'm the same, though. It's funny, very difficult to say. Okay, just one question. Are you burglars, though? Hey, hey, hey, come on. I have to tell you as well, the burglars code means if you ask them,
Starting point is 01:21:57 they have to tell you. Yeah, it's like the magic circle. It's double jeopardy, isn't it? It's double jeopardy. Oh, sorry, yeah. Yeah, if you say, are are you a boogler? They're like, fair play, got me, and there's hands in the air. Part of the problem is there used to be loads of people
Starting point is 01:22:09 that would come round your house, just 20, 30 years ago, someone would knock on the door. And that's sort of declined, isn't it? So there's a guy that knocks on my door selling fish once a week. Now? Now! Now, as in the present like just knocks the door says what any fish obviously i say firstly no exactly i'm definitely not getting fished this way and
Starting point is 01:22:30 are you a fish man or is this because it just is this an elaborate haddock based anyone that thinks fuck it i'll have some prawns off this with the best world in the world dirty man but like they're looking for where your car keys are. There's a fish man, that's the thing, like, there's a fish man by your Mars. Is there? There's a fish man. Sounded like a slam,
Starting point is 01:22:51 did it? There's a fish man by your Mars. I've never seen a fish man at my door. Maybe, it smells like it. There's a fish man by your Mars. He, he,
Starting point is 01:23:01 he, sells fish, outside the fruit shop Oh he doesn't knock on your door That seems like a He doesn't knock on your door though No that's not what I said Yeah so that's
Starting point is 01:23:11 If that's a crime That's a pretty That's a very long way He sells fish Hang on But that's a different thing That we're talking about We're literally talking about people
Starting point is 01:23:18 You know when there's a shop With TVs Near your house No He literally turns up And sells fish Out the back of a van At your door.
Starting point is 01:23:26 No, on the road. Outside the fruit shop. On the road. It's time to see where your car keys are. Don't be stupid. Oh,
Starting point is 01:23:32 really? Yeah, because you can just fucking steal your car keys because you know you put them next to the front door. What if they sell really good fish?
Starting point is 01:23:38 That's the sort of thing, isn't it? That fish man's had a good old look now. What you should start doing is buying the fish off him and then he can't afford to buy the fish no more
Starting point is 01:23:44 and he'll stop robbing people. That's a great idea. Actually make his business sustainable. Yeah. I'll have all your fish. Yeah. Oh, shit. That'll be 250 per piece.
Starting point is 01:23:54 Yeah, that's a great call his bluff. Yeah. Yeah. Buy loads of fish. Imagine, imagine for a second. You want me to buy fish? I will buy fish, pal. Imagine for a second if a man knocked at your door
Starting point is 01:24:03 and was like, do you want to buy any fish? And you went, yeah. And he went, I haven't fish, pal. Imagine for a second if a man knocked at your door and was like, do you want to buy any fish? And you went, yeah. And he went, I haven't fucking got any. I'll have 21 cod, please. How fucking insane that would be. Fish, me.
Starting point is 01:24:15 I want a fish. I want you to sell me fish. I want to buy your fish. You'd see the panic in his eyes and then you'd hear the engine screech away as he drives from the actual fishmongers. Oh yeah, I'll go and get some fish. I'll be back in two hours with some fish then, pal. He goes to Tesco you'd see the panic in his eyes and then you'd hear the engine screech away as he drives from the actual fishmongers oh yeah I can't get some fish
Starting point is 01:24:26 I'll be back in two hours with some fish then he goes to Tesco and just plants 20p on the price he heals the labels off clever hey Egor if you're listening
Starting point is 01:24:33 that's how you make money if someone's trying to tell you meat it's usually like in the pub innit yeah someone who's just robbed robbed from Tesco's yeah
Starting point is 01:24:40 I've never had a stolen smackhead steak I don't know if it tastes better again like you've got to have a better plan for your dinner than just hopefully someone's going to put up with some meat that they've got for sale no i thought i'd wander down the pub and see if anyone's selling beef just take the security tag off ready to go you ever bought anything in the pub like that like dvds anything no but i don't know if i've ever drunk in the pubs that you uh thinking about i thought it happened in all pubs i bought the original jumanji on dvd in the air and arms because because no when do you ever say no to anyone selling jumanji
Starting point is 01:25:18 in the air and i don't understand how funny this was right so we're sat around watching like the fuzzy and this fella comes over and he's like, do you want to buy a DVD? Did it come with free lamb? No. I went to him. I went for a laugh
Starting point is 01:25:30 to make Josh laugh. I went, have you got Jumanji? And he went. Mate, he didn't do it that quick though. He didn't, have you got Jumanji?
Starting point is 01:25:40 Yeah. Weirdly, Jumanji's the one that I keep getting. In fact, these are all Jumanji. Yeah. I knew you were going to ask for Jumanji's the one that I keep getting in my songs in fact these are all Jumanji yeah I knew you were
Starting point is 01:25:47 going to ask for Jumanji he's a magician yeah he was a magician who sells DVDs here's Jumanji you wanted me had he
Starting point is 01:25:57 go home to yours now and see what's on the telly there you go I'd buy a DVD from a magician who could get any DVD out of your ear yeah big mum's house too please lads go ahead mark have you ever bought it from the pub no because i think i'm trying to think like i once saw someone trying to sell
Starting point is 01:26:16 cheese in a pub that's even weirder than me and it because like that goes off so quickly and stuff like that and i could again i couldn't get he must have nicked it but it's just like again i just oh you'd be going to a lot of pubs before someone said yeah fuck i'll have some stilton it's just it seems like it's the same with the fish man i don't understand how much business these guys are doing really i don't think i've ever bought anything i mean i'd buy fish off the fish man if he knocked at my door i mean you know to get to my front door some fucking effort that but like if I lived in a house and someone knocked on the door and was like, do you want to buy some fish?
Starting point is 01:26:48 I'd get some. I respect the hustle. Do you know what I mean? That's better than getting it from Tesco, isn't it? Getting it from the fish fellow who's going door to door. I think Tesco's dead good, you know? I worry if things are going to go wrong, even if, like, someone once offered me a train ticket
Starting point is 01:27:01 in a pub, I remember, that was unused. They were just like, I can't use this. And I think I did. It was a station next to a pub, and I worked there, I could I remember that was unused. They were just like, I can't use this. And I think I did. It was a station next to a pub and I worked out I could use it, but something about it is just like, this can't be. And probably.
Starting point is 01:27:11 Like a SWAT team's waiting for you. Yeah, basically. They're non-transferable. You're not going to it. Get down. In Liverpool, if you walk past a bus stop or a train, you'll very often see a day rider,
Starting point is 01:27:22 like a day ticket, just tucked into the thing nice if someone just leave their day tickets like to bus stop so you see that's nice and that's what yeah and if you're leaving a car park and you've bought an all-day pass and you're like there's four hours and you see someone go into the thing as long as it's not one that asks for the registration you go it's not my ticket yeah i've had an ncp car park attendant go you can't do that you're like fuck off are you are you from the family that own the ncps because if not yeah sure is your name alan ncp it is actually yeah yeah yeah oh dear i just the guy who invented car parks Just really wanted to live his life that way Invented car parks? The invented car parks?
Starting point is 01:28:06 Yeah He was like What year was that? What year was the car park invented? 97 I think 97 Oh shit I remember that Because
Starting point is 01:28:13 You probably won't remember it Because you were a young lad We just used to park in fields Sometimes we'd like I remember Yeah just Oh shit it's a ditch Yeah
Starting point is 01:28:23 You'd get to a new town Your dad would say, if only they'd invented somewhere where you could park cars. But yeah, we'll go on the beach again. One day, lads. Do you watch Tomorrow's World? Everyone watch Tomorrow's World. When you get to Tomorrow's World,
Starting point is 01:28:32 I want to see some of the funny shit Tomorrow's World. Yeah, so it must have been in about 1992, they did one where they said, one day cars will be parked systematically in two-story buildings. In one building. Whoa, mind blown. At the time, it was like sci-fi, wasn't it?
Starting point is 01:28:45 Yeah. Like Tomorrow's World, like funny predictions. I watched one yesterday, the internet one. Really? Yeah. What a show, mate.
Starting point is 01:28:51 Right, what are we doing? Tomorrow's World. But like funny predictions. I've never heard of it. It was a programme on BBC and it was like, this is what will happen in 20 years, big flying cars and shit.
Starting point is 01:28:59 Yeah. The Office of the Future. Just go and text Finn. What? All right. Ladies and gents, welcome to our new feature, Finn Can't Work the Internet, which go on text, Finn. What? All right. Ladies and gents, welcome to our new feature, Finn Can't Work the Internet,
Starting point is 01:29:08 which is becoming a regular thing. There must be a list of funny things tomorrow's world predicted. There isn't, and it's not Finn's fault. It's his sort of thing tomorrow's world. I mean, there's one right there. I'm looking at it.
Starting point is 01:29:17 There you go. Go down to the text. Yeah, let's read it. Tomorrow's world prediction. Oh, yeah. We are remarkably on the money. Oh, yeah. We can't on the money. Oh, yeah. We can't listen to it.
Starting point is 01:29:26 We can't listen to it because you're fucking pubes. What a show, though. Anticlopube Challenge. It'd be stuff like... It'd sometimes be... Carl, I'm giving you this. You deserve that.
Starting point is 01:29:38 That's all you were trying to do. And, you know, Neighbours, Lonely Doors, Mad. Have you ever watched the telemark? Oh, man. My dad used watched the telemark? Oh man. My dad used to sing me the theme tune from Home and Away to send me to sleep.
Starting point is 01:29:50 That is so council, it's unbelievable. Close your eyes Adam. Let me be the one that you run to, someone you can rely on, home and away. It's closer each day first. Home and away. It's closer to each day first. Home and away. If he'd sung Home and Away first, you'd have sat up in bed and said, fuck off, do that again.
Starting point is 01:30:15 Hang on. Wrong lyrics. I won't sleep a wink now. If your dad actually sang theme tunes from the fucking 90s 80s and 90s no I'm not messing
Starting point is 01:30:29 I'm not messing by the way I sort of do you reckon that that age has gone where the theme tune was like someone would actually sing it
Starting point is 01:30:39 and it would have the title of the program in it I don't reckon you get as much like Only Fools and Horses used to have really long you know I don't reckon a sitcom now much. Like Only Fools and Horses used to have really long, you know. I don't reckon a sitcom now
Starting point is 01:30:46 would ever be like, here in the office, funny stuff happens. Yeah. Not as on the nose. Funny stuff happens. Yeah. It's very deadpan.
Starting point is 01:30:55 It's a bit on the nose, that market. I'm just, I'm just workshopping a bit. Yeah. I mean, that's right though, because even Friends
Starting point is 01:31:02 didn't have like, you know, Friends doing loads of stuff having a laugh different characters you know yeah but the song is about friendship
Starting point is 01:31:10 isn't it I'll be there for you when the rain starts to fall I'll be there for you like I've been there before don't fall asleep oh I see I'm starting to read
Starting point is 01:31:19 between the lines of the lyrics now Pat I don't know what he's a sing the lyrics too didn't the cast would sing them occasionally like as well in the 80s The lines are the lyrics now, Pat. And I want you to sing the lyrics too. Then the cast would sing them occasionally. In the 80s, you had sitcoms where like...

Starting point is 01:36:07 Mind your own fucking business. Craig Knight says, Wag Wag Lids. About 10 years ago, I went to see a stand-up show in the Brindley Runcorn. The crowd consisted of me and five other people. You could tell the two acts who were on, Andrew O'Neill and a lady whose name I can't remember,
Starting point is 01:36:24 sort of struggled and just wanted to go home, but still finished the show, fair fucks. So what's the smallest crowd you've played to? And if just six paying customers turned up to a show, would you play it or just fuck it off? Mark. Firstly, I've got a memory of the Brindley in Runcorn, which is I did a tour show once there,
Starting point is 01:36:42 and for some reason, at some point, they changed the start time and half the audience had 7.30 on their tickets half at 8 o'clock so I went on at 7.30 and I thought this is not as many people
Starting point is 01:36:52 as I was expecting and then like another hundred people walked in at 8pm unbelievable I've never seen that before there are some fundamentals that a venue can't fuck up
Starting point is 01:37:00 and that is one of them you've got to tell everyone the same time for the start of the show we like to stagger the crowd yeah like with football you don't see like loads of people suddenly coming in at half past three it's um i'd say oh well first you go to an everton game you see a lot of them leave at a different time no we don't try to beat the traffic that's gonna hurt them even more than they're already hurting um i don't think it's possible i'd first yeah i
Starting point is 01:37:24 would do it to just six people because I think you'd just make a thing out of it wouldn't you you'd just I like if anything if it was going to be
Starting point is 01:37:30 a terrible like terrible turnout I'd sort of rather have six than like 40 or so like if it's enough if it's a small enough number of people
Starting point is 01:37:37 that it's absolutely stupid depends what room it is doesn't it because there's some amazing gigs in small rooms where 40 is banging definitely actually yeah
Starting point is 01:37:44 six in 150 seats who's like I think we need to pull it. Unless you're at the fringe and then you've just got to get on with it. Hot water's 220. You can have a gig with 15 in there. Yeah, for sure. I reckon, like, I'd always do it regardless, I reckon. But that's partly because I do like chaos and stupid stuff. Like, if it was a small enough number of people,
Starting point is 01:38:00 you could just take them to a pub and do it around a table or something. I think that'd be a nice compromise. Oh, yeah, that'd be nice. I've performed. Do it in the car. Just do it in the car. I've got a pub and do it around the table or something I think that'd be a nice compromise oh yeah that'd be nice I've performed do it in the car just do it in the car I've got a Q7 yeah
Starting point is 01:38:09 I've performed to literally no one before because I had to because you wanted the fee yeah which promoter was it let's name Adam Ruslan
Starting point is 01:38:17 made you do the show no so we got there Adam was like booking it and the fella at the bar was like oh yeah we've tried to sell tickets like we're just gonna
Starting point is 01:38:24 hope for walk up because we haven't sold any. And then nobody turned up and we were like, right, can we have our money so we can go home? And he was like, you haven't done the gig. Well, you have. And he was like, you haven't done the gig so I'm not paying you. And we were like, we'll do the gig. And he was like, go on then. So you did do it?
Starting point is 01:38:40 Yeah, to nobody. We had two intervals. Just for the bar taping. Oh my God. You're not running straight through on my watch. That's brilliant. Adam rushed me with my phone. I was like,
Starting point is 01:38:52 we're going to have a break now. We're not going to have a break. So grab yourself a drink, have a sit down. Go to the toilet. What kind of fucking landlord is that big a cunt? I was going to say that. Are you going to sit in the room? No. I'm going to be in the other bar, fuming. toilet that's kind of fucking like landlord is that big a con i was gonna you'll do it and are you gonna sit in the room no i'm gonna be in the other bar fuming but i'll know if the show happened
Starting point is 01:39:10 or not i've got a few stories about i've played to like fours and sixes but i don't think i can top playing to zero people to make a point like that that's brilliant forms in negative people yeah yeah i wasn't even there but but I did the gig. Somehow the venue would have to burn down while there were no people in it to top that. That's amazing. The most amazing bit
Starting point is 01:39:30 is that, like, well, the mind boggles at that. Why did he think that the gig would, this gig still hasn't really happened if no one's there,
Starting point is 01:39:37 is it? It's like a tree in the forest situation. He was just like, he's trying to not pay, He didn't want to pay. Yeah. But he sort of backed himself into the corner of,
Starting point is 01:39:45 if you want the money, do the gig. And we went, we were like new enough that we needed the money. That's brilliant. And we were like, well,
Starting point is 01:39:50 we'll do it then. He was like, go on. We were like, right. That's really funny. You speak to each other? No.
Starting point is 01:39:56 You speak to other comics, I mean. No, we just stood like at the bar. That's brilliant. You should have gone backstage when each other were on. When you're at Skin
Starting point is 01:40:02 and you've driven to a gig, I did a gig in Cardiff that I started at eight. I'd have been on at sort of 10. And I just, cause it was such a long drive from Manchester. I was going to get there for nine. In the time it took for them to try and start, they realised no one was there.
Starting point is 01:40:17 So they pulled the gig. So I walked in at 10 to nine to an empty pub. With no idea until then. They were like, oh, the gig's been pulled. I was like, I'm in Cardiff.
Starting point is 01:40:24 That's a three hour drive from Manchester yeah the guys were just sort of finishing upstairs and they were like oh the gig's off i was like cool i need to get paid though he was like oh the gig the gig's off and i was like i know but i'm studying cardiff mate we had to walk to a cash point and he got the cash oh that's horrible oh I don't know if he's done that to you but I had to have no not on you
Starting point is 01:40:48 on him but I also I wanted to be the guy who was like cool leave it but I was like I can't leave it no you
Starting point is 01:40:55 I've just driven from Manchester to Cardiff I'm a new comic no there's nothing there's nothing like that the worst walk to the fucking cash point ever
Starting point is 01:41:03 I might as well have been fucking mugging him that's horrible I might as well have got a fucking knife at his back you might as well have leant across him at the cash point ever i might as well have been fucking mugging him that's i might as well have got a fucking knife at his back you might as well have lent across him at the cash point and gone 10 20 he's like oh you should have seen it last time so busy i'm sure it fucking was oh every comics had that hey it's unbelievable last night i once had um uh hardly any sold in blackburn and the king george's and the bloke, he was trying to help. He said,
Starting point is 01:41:26 firstly, he said, it's normally round for comedy, mate. So, okay, cool. So I'm just shit. And then he doubled down by saying, we had Jason Manford on here, two nights sold out last week. I was like, right,
Starting point is 01:41:35 I'm starting to see where my punters might have gone. They went to fucking Jason Manford. It's amazing how many promoters think it will comfort you to hear about someone else's show went so well last week. Yeah, yeah, Jason Manford.
Starting point is 01:41:44 I'm to have three extra dates. Yeah, yeah, Jason Manfred, he had three extra dates. Yeah, yeah. I don't know what's going on with you. Yeah, whereas you're taking dates off here, basically. He's in the other room right now. Yeah, yeah. I don't know what's happened to you. When you were doing the world record attempt at The Fringe,
Starting point is 01:41:57 the longest ever comedy show, how many people in the, like, weird 5am slot did you get down to in the room? We never went below about 30 or 40 I think but some of them were asleep to be absolutely fair to them. How long did you do just for the do do do do? Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do fucked and the erection still to come of course i can't wait sneak up what have you had the deliver just uh just you tell me i don't know about this world record attempt oh i did i used
Starting point is 01:42:32 to do not an attempt he got the world record do it sometimes i do these 24 hour long um comedy shows which these days are for charity but when i started out it was in edinburgh it wasn't even for charity it was just for a stunt and the longest one i did was 36 hours so like yeah a day and a half and you'd the idea is people can come and go if they want but you get like like with any of these things you get a cult you get a hardcore of like 40 50 people who just camp in there and literally like bring sleeping stuff and things like that so it was legendary it's all anyone was talking about that i did it several years consecutively in edinburgh i haven't done it for a while but uh two years time will be the anniversary the 20th
Starting point is 01:43:05 anniversary 2024 so I think I'll have another go at it then we need to do the longest podcast record I know it was like we went on and we found that
Starting point is 01:43:13 it wasn't a world record let's just set the world record is there not an existing record for that it's only audio right so you could just
Starting point is 01:43:20 press the podcast and then speak every two minutes or whatever yeah that doesn't so what were the rules with yours? You were allowed piss breaks or... Yeah, there were some like stupid...
Starting point is 01:43:31 Well, not stupid rules, but there were things like... I think it is... In theory, I think you're allowed something like five minutes off every hour with any endurance records or something. There's some sort of rule that stops you from actually dying,
Starting point is 01:43:40 but I never did that. Were you awake the whole time? Yeah. Fuck me! Even when I went to the toilet, I would bring someone with me and they would the whole time yeah fuck me even when i went to the toilet i would bring someone with me and they would relay it back to the toilet i was awake yeah i mean i don't know if i could as it's going on like the ones i do these days i'll have more guests in and like the thing with the fringe is obviously there's always comedians in the area
Starting point is 01:43:59 you can always bring people in and stuff like that but even so i try never to leave the station more than about five minutes because it starts to feel like cheating we've got to do it now we're in here we've got to do it it's an incredible feeling you just do it like on a you must have
Starting point is 01:44:13 you've got guests coming in you can just have guest hosts replace you Mark please please come up it would be such a lovely tie-in to the fact that you're the world record holder
Starting point is 01:44:20 I'd be all over that I'd love to do that lads we've got to do it it is and also it is quite it is quite kind of like what happens to you psychologically is quite is it well it's a bit like you know like everyone's had the thing where you uh you stay up all night whatever and then you do not immediately but a certain point the next day you just start feeling like you're not quite there you sort of it's not entirely unpleasant like sort of trippy feeling it's
Starting point is 01:44:41 a lot of it is like that sleep deprivation i'm gonna care yeah like i'm definitely gonna keep jordan yeah we just have guests call all our guests we've just got to do you just got to keep i keep long enough four hours i'll have a 30 an hour i'm gonna go home and come back and see how we're getting on i did some um i did a couple online during the pandemic and stuff like that as charity things and loads of people stayed for the whole 24 like these sort of events do attract you'd get you'd get loads of people stayed for the whole 24 like these sort of events do attract you'd get you'd get loads of people like following the whole thing
Starting point is 01:45:07 because people start to it's like once you've done the first three or four hours as a punter you're just like well I'm not I'm not leaving it now especially when you're
Starting point is 01:45:15 you might go for a kip again but like basically the longer you're in it the longer you're willing to stay in it past that aren't you I wonder if we could stream it we'd have to
Starting point is 01:45:21 I think we'd have to set some sort of stream up and then work out how to get it all up or whatever when stream something to go it then i don't like if we if we do 48 hour podcast i'm sure we could set the record for audio and video and like we could just pick a bunch of legends and book them in two hour slots and be like could you come and do two hours we can tag in and out a little bit. Come on. That'd be fucking amazing. Yeah, and it would be...
Starting point is 01:45:46 Mark's got to be here for that. I'd love to do it, yeah. Also, now you've got this, like you say, you could comfortably live in this for... I'm going to try to. And not for the world record attempt. I just want to be here alone.
Starting point is 01:45:57 I was going to say, for six months, yeah. A would you rather. We live and die by these would you rathers. Would you rather. George Wanless says, got a would you rather for you. If your team was in the fa cup final and you were going down to wembley would you rather wear a full kit including boots captain arms band and cap uh or oh and cap sorry or go
Starting point is 01:46:17 head to toe in the union jack we're talking full union jack suit socks shoes and possibly a hat to complete the ensemble both need to be carried with the utmost seriousness. There can be no chat of this for a bet, ATC. So you can't be like, oh, it's just a bet. You've got to wear it in seriousness down to fucking Wembley. Love the pod. Keep the bullshit coming.
Starting point is 01:46:35 That's from George. It's just, I mean, the easiest one in the world for me, so I'll pass it over to Mark. Yeah, now I support a team that have only been to the Efficot Final once, and that was in 1909. Is that Bristol City? Yeah, we're in the second tier but like i'd say if we got to the final there's nothing i wouldn't do like i i think all bets are off i'd so like i think full kit like including boots is all right i'd like i know that there's a lot of that full kit wanker thing
Starting point is 01:47:00 is a sort of but i reckon i'd i think i could that. The boots and the captain's armband is maybe a bit much, but I reckon. The boots is a little much. I'd much rather be a full kit wanker than a full blown union jack shagging paedophile. Post, post Brexit, post mother,
Starting point is 01:47:16 post Queen's death, if you went down to Wembley now, full union jack, you'd look like such a flag noncy sort of racist, wouldn't you? It's just, yeah, I don't think. I'd rather go naked than wear a fucking union jack you'd look like such a flag noncy sort of racist wouldn't you it's just yeah yeah i don't think i'd rather go naked than wear a fucking union jack that's a good would you rather actually yeah naked at the fa cup final would you rather go no you wouldn't rather go naked though
Starting point is 01:47:34 no i absolutely would if you were allowed let's say you are allowed into wembley naked yeah you'd rather sit there like that for 90 minutes i don't think it's written in any of the bylaws that you can't go in yeah if you take in blue tube before you get in there bylaws I'll take a full nudity this is interesting actually
Starting point is 01:47:51 would you they wouldn't let you in would they no no they'd arrest you would they kick you out if you got naked once you were in
Starting point is 01:47:57 yes they probably would quite quickly as well officer Dave I do not respect your authority I was born this way
Starting point is 01:48:06 it's funny because you'd be arrested that way you'd get chucked out if you're a streaker on the pitch but you don't have to see someone strip off and then
Starting point is 01:48:12 are you going to streak no I'm just a bit hot yeah just fancy it warm woo hands off just doing this with me

Starting point is 01:48:43 always sunny, isn't it? Yeah, it wouldn't be a bad day to be naked it's normally it's may mid may yeah the end of may now do you have to wear the current home kit or because no retro it's going to be the current with the goalkeeper on the back of the home kit of the home outfield yeah oh you put it wrong as well the goalkeeper's name but yeah right so it doesn't even so not even his number so i've've got to have Alison on the home kit with number 11. Oh, that would feel odd actually. Yeah, in a way that's almost the worst bit.
Starting point is 01:49:09 People thinking you're not in the real world. I think Westerveld on the new kit. Shout out, Sander Westerveld. He played for Everton as well, you know. Sander Westerveld. That's a little old fact. He just made his transfer to Everton. I remember hearing my own name.

We went to Leeds festival and i had the yellow retro i'll show you the picture in a minute and he had the retro everton top on right at leeds festival like a couple of weeks ago that's good um but you'd not wear this shirt to it no that would make me feel i wouldn't go with you no i don't know it has to be at least like 20 years old 20 years old yeah that's interesting so you think retro beats modern yeah every single time modern modern training stuff i like wearing because it's always nice like 15, 20 years old.

Starting point is 01:54:37 the top dog and then you're back in the same situation. That is unlucky though. Is she going to prison? You've got to think that far ahead. But why is she going
Starting point is 01:54:45 to prison if you get caught fraud she's still in there it's a separate offence maybe because you get done as coke conspirators in another bag that is actually

Starting point is 02:01:41 on you go what do you think, Mark? I'm not following that. My favorite bit was the way he went, projecting, projecting. Where's he getting that from? He's only getting that from his own actions unless it's happened to him before. Yeah, jealous people in relationships
Starting point is 02:01:57 often put their own insecurities about themselves onto their partner and then expect that- Sorry, can you sing it first, Adam? Like you did. Jealous people! Closer each day. It's interesting though that Tash said
Starting point is 02:02:10 she can be jealous as well. Yeah, she even said I'm not that arsed so it doesn't seem like an urgent problem. But it's obviously, there is exceptions
Starting point is 02:02:18 to the jealousy. Like, if you've been mates with someone for 10 years and they were your best mate, you can't then meet then You can't meet someone And have them go

Starting point is 02:04:49 If you Google Friends Reunited, Wikipedia comes up. It's shut down. It's gone. Friends Reunited, the first hit is a Wikipedia page about what it used to be. Oh, what do you use now? There must be a replacement. Maybe because of Facebook and like you say,
Starting point is 02:05:00 because social media. Yeah. Oh, it's called Mates Back Together now. How is it? Check it. It's called mates back together now. How is it? It's the rest of the internet. Don't check it. Don't check it. I didn't.
Starting point is 02:05:11 I didn't do anything you were about to say. All right, I think I used to know you. Have you been killed in year nine? The Welsh version of friends reunited. Oi. By the way, Mark, lots of murderers went to our schools. Right, right. I'm starting to get that.
Starting point is 02:05:28 There was five murderers in mine and Carl's year. Five murderers in your year? Five convicted murderers. Year. That's unbelievable. Yeah. It's a good one, isn't it? I don't know if it's good, exactly.
Starting point is 02:05:37 No, you don't know. It's the world record. It's got to be up there. If you could get a list of the most murder-affiliated schools, it's got to be high. Yeah. Five in a year. But it wasn't a bad school. Not murder-filled schools, it's gotta be high. Yeah. Five in a year.
Starting point is 02:05:46 But it wasn't a bad school. Not so bad school. Was it a freak year or were you regularly producing top level murderers? A freak year. Cause that wasn't a top academy. I don't think we know that for sure. They were in top set for murdering.
Starting point is 02:05:55 So. Yeah, they were streamed. They were only set. As far as our Duke of Edinburgh award was made. That's amazing. Only five of us passed. Sometimes you get these schools that produce a lot of like top level sports
Starting point is 02:06:05 people but you don't often hear of murderers we are top level we were a specialist sports college Steven Gerrard went to our school we don't mention it
Starting point is 02:06:10 David Nugent the footballer as well David Price the boxer thank god they all made it otherwise there'd be more dead bodies
Starting point is 02:06:16 our school produced interesting people your school produced sports people murderers and podcasters ultimately yeah that's
Starting point is 02:06:26 was there any connection between the five of them as well or just it was one attack right no but they all they all
Starting point is 02:06:34 weirdly they all met at pottery yeah yeah five-a-side murder five-a-side murder yeah I'm aching all over I went to that
Starting point is 02:06:43 five-a-side murder thing last night we're all getting done together yeah yeah at least we're mates now though that was like since school like
Starting point is 02:06:51 how long have we been after school 14 years it's just been incrementally like oh there's another one that's amazing yeah
Starting point is 02:06:57 like we had one in my year and he wasn't he was not in even found guilty it was do you remember that years ago
Starting point is 02:07:02 there was a fellow he was on the news it was a big one his wife died on honeymoon in South Africa yeah Sri Andwani his name was wasn't he? He was not in the end even found guilty. It was, do you remember that years ago there was a fellow, he was on the news, it was a big one. His wife died on honeymoon in South Africa. Yeah. Shreya Ndwani his name was. Ah, yeah.
Starting point is 02:07:09 And then it was, he was in my year and he was eventually found not guilty but it's one of these ones where it's impossible to sort of know. Yeah, a lot of people
Starting point is 02:07:18 probably shouldn't pass comment on this illegally. No, I heard he definitely did it. Fine, okay. Well, that's kind of your not mine yeah so yeah it's my my opinion allegedly that he definitely did it allegedly your opinion allegedly it's my opinion that this fellow definitely your alleged opinion it was about 15 years after we left school again and the incredible thing was this like this intricate complicated case that happened. This is Africa. No one knew anything about it really
Starting point is 02:07:47 but everyone had been at the school was like either, yeah, I can imagine him doing it or it made you worry about juries and stuff because none of us knew
Starting point is 02:07:53 fuck all but everyone had an opinion. Everyone was pitching in. Have you ever done jury duty? No, I always think it would be quite fun but then you think about
Starting point is 02:08:02 what it would do to your diary. It would come at a time when you had like six weeks of stuff in. Oh, I want a multiple murder that gets boxed off in about four working days. That's the, it's not going to happen, is it? You're looking for a quickie. The juicy ones, this blue cheer will wear off.
Starting point is 02:08:16 They last for fucking months. I can't. Can you tell me then, is it compulsory? Like, isn't it? You have to have a good reason. So like where? You can't be like, oh, I broke my arm. Don't worry about me.
Starting point is 02:08:27 I get excused. Would you say I've got tour dates in, or, like, would they not? I would bash three blue chews, turn up no pants, I'd be off that jury real quick. Yeah, I want to do it. It's a bit like the planting cocaine thing. There's probably ways you could get off a jury quite quickly.
Starting point is 02:08:39 Yeah. Plant cocaine on the judge, and the whole thing will get thrown out? Yeah. Or just in the first 10 minutes, yell, guilty! Turn up next! Turn up in the full kit of your...
Starting point is 02:08:53 Yeah, yeah. And immediately, he's done it, him. He's done it! Shout, wanker, wanker! What are we even listening to anything else for? He's done it! That would get you on.
Starting point is 02:09:04 There's a load of ways I think a couple of those and you'd probably sorry sorry your honour no sorry no I'll listen to this for some people
Starting point is 02:09:11 it's the opposite it'd be a dream to have a multi-week one wouldn't it like if you if you hated your job yeah now I'd love like a
Starting point is 02:09:19 fucking two year long trial where there's fucking you know when it like it's eventually going to be on Netflix you realise you can't go on your phone at one way any country's talking about where's that bullshit when you're away in the hotel you have no contact i don't what do you think that's the point isn't it you're quite my mum did you i do a bit of stand-up about this my mum is really
