Starting point is 00:02:55 against you right I'm big into these things you know you're not superstitious at all are you walking over grids wow
Starting point is 00:03:03 do you do all three oh why I'm a grid maverick mate what for I'm Walking over grids. Wow. Do you do all three? Oh. Why? I'm a grid maverick, mate. What for? I'm on the grids. What do you do? I am the grid.
Starting point is 00:03:10 I'm the Matrix, mate. I'm Neo. He just doesn't care, does he? It doesn't matter. It doesn't affect your day. You just move out the way of the last one. You know what? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:03:18 Just in case. Why tempt the gods? Just in case the grids do what? The gods could smite you down. You know, what have you heard? When have you heard of someone stepping on three grids... The gods do what? The gods could smite you down? Yeah, but what have you heard? When have you heard of someone stepping on three grids and then they get shot by...
Starting point is 00:03:29 No wonder you're going to step on a third grid and it's going to give in and you're going to fall to the fucking depths of hell. And we're going to be stood there going, told you. Are we teabagging you? Yeah, I think.
Starting point is 00:03:38 And I'm suing someone. Yeah. If that third grid leads to the depths of hell, we're getting a fucking payout. Who got the planning permission for that? I Whoa!
Starting point is 00:03:47 Well that's a reveal. The devs need planning permission. You'd expect better at L1. I think because it's the the odds isn't it? The odds are increasingly falling through a grid
Starting point is 00:03:55 the more you walk over. What? I think that's what the superstition comes from. So there's some weird Bet365 grid god watching like we've got to get the odds.
Starting point is 00:04:04 Ray Winston. Would you walk over a thousand gr. Ray Winston. Would you walk over a thousand grids? Yeah. Would you? What in grids? It's got nothing to do with that for me.
Starting point is 00:04:10 If you could walk next to it instead, would you walk over the thousand? No, but I don't walk over one grid either. I walk over two. Yeah, me too.
Starting point is 00:04:16 I'm the same. Hang on. This isn't superstition. You just don't trust grids. You've taken a superstition and gone, Matt, grids. It's meant to be superstition.
Starting point is 00:04:26 You're going, I don't trust fucking grids. I don't trust grid makers. The internet's not working. You're a joke. Oh, fucking hell. He's off the grid. Hey.
Starting point is 00:04:35 I let on to magpies, you know. I don't... What did you do to magpies? I let on. Let on? You haven't heard that phrase? I'm letting on. I'm here, mate,
Starting point is 00:04:44 and I'm fucking watching you. Are we nearly three years into... No, to let on. To let on. I was like, are we letting on? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Have you genuinely never heard that before?
Starting point is 00:04:52 I sort of have, but to let on is like to let on that you're there. I suppose it's the same thing. Let on is to say hello, essentially. All right. If somebody's like, you're like,
Starting point is 00:05:00 Magpie, you're there. What if the Magpie ignores you because he's a cunty Magpie? The Magpie's always ignoring me. That's not the point. Do you do the certain amount? If there's too many, you don't do it. So if there's one magpie I let on,
Starting point is 00:05:10 if there's two, I say two for joy out loud. If it's any of the other numbers, I count and see which, what the thing is. What? So if there's 27 magpies, you go...
Starting point is 00:05:20 No, but it doesn't go that high, does it? And who's ever seen 27 magpies? And who counts them? Yeah. You go to your missus stop throwing trill in the garden trill what the hell one for sorrow two for joy three for a girl four for a boy five for silver six for gold seven for the secret never to be told what's what's a boy what what do you mean a boy i don't know he doesn't know it's just shit he heard from old people

Starting point is 00:06:07 not a single thing do you like put your do you put a certain sock on first what I put my right sock on first and my shoe on first
Starting point is 00:06:14 I don't know why but I do I never don't I notice you are a crazy lady I have to start every set of
Starting point is 00:06:23 walk on my right foot and end it on my left. Yeah, I always finger my wife with my ring finger first. It's a weird one. Would you ring finger? Oh, there's not much power in that. Yeah, I know, but it's just a superstition. It's a family thing. It's been passed on from generation
Starting point is 00:06:38 to generation. I remember my gran saying, you know, always use that finger first. Lucky, then you'll marry. Yeah. It's a family thing thing it's a present thing I've never told you about that in three years you only finger the one
Starting point is 00:06:51 you want to marry god you guys that is going to be a bad fingering isn't it it can't even yeah there's no power in it yeah but then again
Starting point is 00:06:57 it is part of the greatest twosome in fingering history yeah oh is it yeah but the middle one's carrying a lot of the weight oh yeah yeah yeah
Starting point is 00:07:04 and he's just like tagging along for the ride the middle one's carrying a lot of the weight oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah it's fucking and he's just like tagging along for the ride the middle one's doing the this is this is Eric Morecambe that's Ernie Wise
Starting point is 00:07:10 yeah but look this one there's a reference for all our young listeners Trill and Trill all our listeners are like fucking hell
Starting point is 00:07:22 there we go Morecambe and Wise they were great have you looked at nothing in your life and you go I've got to do that it's just a part of your day
Starting point is 00:07:30 there is a superstition there's a difference between superstition and routine isn't there yeah he's like the most OCD but he's not doing it to please the gods
Starting point is 00:07:37 he's doing it to please himself what do you do to please yourself except for masturbate yeah he cleans up doesn't he you're always fucking tidying.
Starting point is 00:07:46 One of my superstitions is a seatbelt. A seatbelt. I just put it in a car. Mad. I just put the seatbelt on, click it in, and I'm like, oh my God, one crash for Thor. Do you wear a seatbelt in the back of a taxi? Do you know what?
Starting point is 00:08:00 I genuinely judge it on the driver and the car. Sometimes, yes. But not in a black cab because they're invincible in an Uber or in a minicab yeah because that's just a car
Starting point is 00:08:15 abroad it goes out the window yeah abroad I'm not going off the windows I never ever put a seatbelt on if I'm in the back seat I don't know why but I just feel like you're safe it's fine yeah well I'm in the back seat. I don't know why, but I just feel like... You're safe.
Starting point is 00:08:25 It's fine. Yeah. Well, I'm going to die and I'll kill everyone else as well. I honestly thought, as we got on a taxi one night, you in Nashville, you got in and didn't buckle up. As I buckled up, I was like, why am I buckling up? Because if we crash, I'm going to get killed by a flying Adam Rowe. And that's sort of how I want to go.
Starting point is 00:08:42 I like the person behind me to buckle up. I kept telling Jack off. Yeah. Because I was like... We're all traumatised from Julie Newey killer, aren't we? I don I want to go. I like the person behind me to buckle up. I kept telling Jack off. Yeah. Because I was like, we're all traumatised from Julie Newair killer, aren't we? I don't want to know me killer. Jack off. Was that an advert?
Starting point is 00:08:51 Yeah. Julie Newair killer. And it was just this son or something. So it must have worked. And he stabbed her. Yeah. I don't want to go to bed. Yeah, the thing is,
Starting point is 00:09:03 you drive home fine and you just get in and blows it up. Those fucking adverts are bullshit. The Think Motorbike one, we're like, did you see it? And they go to the lights and he turns right
Starting point is 00:09:11 and there's defo no motorbike there at all. And then on the next clip, he's like, look again, and there's a motorbike. I'm a motorbike! Yeah, he's got about
Starting point is 00:09:18 400 miles an hour. That's like, what can you do? Think Motorbike. No, that stuck with me, that one. I don't want to know my killer. And also the mobile phone one, have can you do? Think motorbike. No, that stuck with me, that one. I don't want to know my killer. Yeah, I know.
Starting point is 00:09:25 And also the mobile phone one. Have you seen that? So, like, it's the... The mobile phone advert. No, for crashing. She looks down on the mobile and answers it. And there's an elephant. And then she crashes and dies.
Starting point is 00:09:37 And the fella's like, hello, are you there? And he's, like, getting upset and she's dead. And she's like, no, I'm dead. Oh, God. It's probably hack, but the little girl one traumatised me when I was little. Stop hitting me. If you hit me at 20, I'm all right. If you hit she's like no I'm dead oh god it's probably hack but the little girl one traumatised me
Starting point is 00:09:46 when I was little stop hitting me if you hit me at 20 I'm alright if you hit me at 30 I'm fine if you hit me at 40 I'm dead
Starting point is 00:09:50 it's slow mo with a kid getting fucking bonneted into the air she's like she's looking right down the camera she fucking dabs
Starting point is 00:09:59 if you hit me at 120 you're in the Guinness Book of World Records it's a 20 zone yeah they work though If you hit me at 120, you're in the Guinness Book of World Records. It's a 20 zone. Yeah. They worked out. We remember them all.
Starting point is 00:10:13 I don't remember the one that you said. The phone one. It fucking... I remember being really angry at your mum because I called her. Not knowing where she was and she answered. I was like, are you driving?
Starting point is 00:10:20 Since before it was really bad. And I put the phone down now and never answered it if you're driving. She's like, okay, sorry. She's a proper snooker, me. Good adverts. Going back to superstitions,
Starting point is 00:10:31 I reckon you've, you do the lawn in a specific way. That's what I imagine. Put his pants off. Yeah, because I don't want to anger the turf gods because they will smite me.
Starting point is 00:10:42 None of it's superstition. Am I wrong though? Do you do it in a specific way i guarantee he does it in a specific way but it's not because he's like oh i've got to do this he's just like oh i've got to do it this way because i've always done now we're talking systems systems get on me i will let on to systems make your life work better. That's not superstition. Dad, what? Is JK Rowling the turf god?
Starting point is 00:11:09 Oh. Trans exclusion, any radical feminist. Yeah, and that's why I mow the pride flag into my lawn every time. I don't know where I get the pink dye from, but I make it work. Go on, watch your system. You've got to be careful that no one confuses that for Russia when it's all green. It's a different message isn't it um i uh what systems oh yeah you've got to mow the lawn in a certain way there you go then you have got these things i'll talk you through it i go once around the edge and then i go twice around the edge that creates a sort of frame a border and
Starting point is 00:11:44 then when i've gone around twice i then stuck the a border and then when I've gone round twice I then stuck the lines in and then obviously you've already mowed on that edge part because obviously you can't struggle so
Starting point is 00:11:51 you get a turning circle for the lines where you've already cut have you got a sit on one? what? have you got a sit on mower? how well do you think we're doing?
Starting point is 00:12:01 I know what are you doing? you've definitely got a sit on mower Dan you've got like seven cars it's not out of the realms? You've definitely bought a sit-on mower. Dan, you've got like seven cars. Hang on. It's not

Starting point is 00:12:56 and Laura would probably divorce me. Why, she can have a go. Although there is a green on the front, the council aren't mowing it. I have thought about...

Starting point is 00:14:17 but this doesn't make sense, love. Please don't mow in the corridors. There is a new rule. No, what you do is, because you like the biggest and best, you buy like a tractor or like a combine harvester. This'll do it.

I've got a fucking straight twin brother. And he's just exactly like me. And they're like, oh my God. And Barney fucks him.
Starting point is 00:18:29 Right. It's an absolute sex pest. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. He's a lethargian. We love a sex pest in sitcoms. As much anymore? What? Like a Joey. Do you think it's dated? Yeah, probably. Barney Stinson's much more of a player than Joey.
Starting point is 00:18:43 That is quite sinister though, isn't it? Like Joey was like, I love eating and fucking. Yeah. And how'd you do it, Joey? Is there any gaslighting? No, I just go, how you doing? It was quite a simple, like, Joey's character was the most simple, wasn't it?
Starting point is 00:19:01 Yeah. He's attractive with, like, he's a big gold heart. Like he's a big gold heart, like he's a big cuddly boy. Loves eating, like a, loves his mum, family guy who's attractive and is good with it.
Starting point is 00:19:12 But it's, it wasn't a complicated character. No. Barney Stimson? Stimson. Stimson sounds, that's a bit more advanced, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:19:19 Oh yeah, he's a psycho. Setting up a lab. He's a complete psychopath, but lovable. I think it's a bit, like Joe Barney in The Simpsons
Starting point is 00:19:25 doesn't drink beer no more he's not a alcoholic he's addicted to coffee no because you
Starting point is 00:19:30 don't want to have a character who is an alcoholic it's like they took Apu out because he wasn't voiced
Starting point is 00:19:37 by an Asian man I understand that one a bit more that was a campaign by Harry Condor
Starting point is 00:19:44 thingy Condoleezry condor lisa rice harry conduit um yeah and like it it's also divided the south asian community that because a lot of people were like this was a really offensive character people used to call me a school and then there was all the people who were like, that was my only representation on TV. On telly, yeah. So controversial. But I hate this sort of,
Starting point is 00:20:15 the way we're going with characters, where it's like, oh, characters have to be perfect and no character can be problematic. Like the musical Dear Evan Hansen, like got like rave reviews. It's just finished. It's London run. I think it's still running on Broadway in New York.
Starting point is 00:20:30 I loved going to see that. It was great. But it started getting criticism because it was like, you know, by the end of the play, everyone's sort of like thinks Evan Hansen's sound, but he's actually a really mean guy and he's not really,
Starting point is 00:20:43 he's not like a perfect character. So it got like criticism from people because he's not a really mean guy and he's not really, he's not like a perfect character. So it got like criticism from people because he's not this fucking angel. And it's like, he doesn't have to be. No one's perfect. And when we start sort of removing the chance for characters to be wrong, to have flaws,
Starting point is 00:20:59 what the fuck are we doing? Realistic. It's not admitted on life. Like it's meant, sitcoms and stuff are meant to be like, these people exist. Yeah, be a grown-up and be able to deal with
Starting point is 00:21:09 just more layers to a character. Kids get that, don't they? Who's good and bad and everything. It's not as clear-cut as that in adult life. That's healthy, isn't it? These people exist. This happens. Not everyone's perfect
Starting point is 00:21:23 and then when someone isn't, you're like, what the fuck? The world isn't't perfect surely the most interesting writing does have that doesn't it does have that like push and pull of good and evil yeah and you're not meant to like you're meant to love a character despite their flaws that that's the best writing isn't it is when a character is not a perfect person but you're like ah but, but they're still, like you still connect with them. And you're like, yeah, they fucked up quite a bit, but that's not okay. But it doesn't matter.
Starting point is 00:21:50 Modern sitcoms, I think Ted Lasso's nailed that in terms of depth of character and they've all got different flaws and stuff. And they're all, they're not just cartoon like Joey, like they've got two things about them. They're all proper people. The only, like I love Ted Lasso. The only thing I think about it is it's a little bit into the unbelievable.
Starting point is 00:22:13 This season especially, yeah. Like the characters are not potentially real people. I think in the first season they would have been. Maybe. It's the flanderization of characters, isn't it? Eventually, they become just a little bit
Starting point is 00:22:27 they become like a parody of themselves. Yeah, but like I found that even in season one, to be honest, like Ted Lasso, so the main storyline
Starting point is 00:22:37 of Ted Lasso is he is an NFL coach who gets hired to coach a British football team. And he comes over and he's got zero knowledge of the game, but to a cartoonish degree. Yeah, so he wouldn't have got the job.
Starting point is 00:22:52 So it's not believable. Well, now the reason he gets the job, sort of spoilers, this is revealed in the first episode, is the woman who owns the club has gone through a divorce. Her ex-husband was the owner of the club. She got the club in the divorce. Her ex-husband was the owner of the club. She got the club in the divorce. Her ex-husband loves the club. She hires Ted Lasso because she wants him to fail.
Starting point is 00:23:12 That's a fucking up. Because it will hurt her husband who owned the club. And obviously they go on a bit of a journey where she ends up developing a relationship with Ted Lasso on a professional basis. And that's the, without doing any more spoilers. So she's hired him because he'll be shit at it.
Starting point is 00:23:31 But like, there's a good set up if you're trying to, if you're trying to make that set up work. It's really good but like there's moments where he doesn't know
Starting point is 00:23:38 the offside rule and it's like, he'd have read that on the plane at least. Yeah. Do you know what I mean? Like there's just moments in it where it's like, it's amazing and like on the plane, at least. Do you know what I mean? Like, there's just moments in it where it's like, it's amazing.
Starting point is 00:23:47 And like, I can't, the new episode dropped today. I can't wait to go and watch it tonight. But it's not real. No, no, you have got to suspend disbelief. I'm talking about in terms of like- A little bit. Especially the Roy Kent character, who is just Roy Keane, is a hard man.
Starting point is 00:24:04 And a few decades ago ago he'd have just been the hard man but he deals with his mental health and has a deeper level of character and you go oh he's yeah it's not the first it's not this is the character this is his trait yeah yeah there's there's more more of a human side to it yeah i mean friends was fascinating wasn't it because everyone loved it and it was beautifully written but you did have to suspend some disbelief didn't you because it was they weren't it was it's still a very artificial situation isn't it well some of them are unemployed three there's six friends and they don't really hang out with anyone else and it
Starting point is 00:24:43 and although they weren't like really shallow characters, they were just like two, three points, weren't they? Like Joey's maybe the extreme example, but then you sort of just buy in, don't you? You do suspend a bit of this because you know it's a studio recorded like sitcom. You have to sort of just buy in. That's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:25:04 The same with all sitcoms. Eventually they just become, well, pretty much every sitcom just becomes a caricature. The first few seasons tends to be, you could buy into it. And then by season seven. It's like, oh, that's funny because he's Ross. He wouldn't say that.
Starting point is 00:25:19 Yeah. The Simpsons is the term, Flandernization comes from The Simpsons. The Simpsons is the epitomelanderisation Comes from The Simpsons Yeah The Simpsons is the epitome of that Everybody became a parody of themselves Homer became this fucking idiot And that's why The Simpsons has gone shit Because everyone's just doing the thing
Starting point is 00:25:34 You expect that character to do So you're like Yeah there's no comedy Because Yeah that lost its heart Comedy comes from the surprise Doesn't it Yeah
Starting point is 00:25:40 If you've got an original writing team And you achieve massive success That's the thing that keeps it together the cast is obviously important but who's writing it who's because once that changes it's that but it's also it's also just over time you've run out of ideas ideas that are based in the real world like south park did it in the first few series. I think there's an episode called The Simpsons Did It where they, I think it's, I might even think it's Butters maybe, and they just go through all of the things
Starting point is 00:26:13 that a cartoon has already done and they just go, fuck it, doesn't matter. Yeah. Well, it's The Simpsons starter. There's like, oh, this is an American family, 2.4 kids, you know, housewife, it's like father. And it's like, oh, this is is a an american family 2.4 kids you know housewife it's like father and it's like oh this is like a mirror on the world and we're going to parody the world and this is what happens and then homer goes to space and become like yeah you're like okay
Starting point is 00:26:35 jump in the shark literally but i still love it and i watch it all it doesn't bother me but i can i watch it go downhill from a certain point that's the argument for uk shows isn't it like the office you leave it at two and then yeah the us seems to milk it a lot more than the uk there's too much money involved isn't that like a big american hit is hundreds of millions of dollars whereas a british one is six episodes. Like, it's the difference between a six-episode series and a 24-episode series. It's just insane. And the market's so much bigger.
Starting point is 00:27:10 But the amount of times you go, oh, the first, like, Homeland, the first season, unbelievable. Killing it. Westworld. Like, that's British, is that? Oh, yeah, but I'm saying the first season was great. There's so many examples of American stuff.
Starting point is 00:27:21 You're like, oh, the first season, the first two seasons are sick, and then it goes shit. You'd think somebody got it right by now, but they haven't. Breaking Bad got it right. Yeah. But Westwell fucked it.
Starting point is 00:27:30 That could have been the best. Game of Thrones fucked it. I know that's based on the book, but there's so many examples of them going. Game of Thrones just didn't land it. Stuck to London. They weren't fucking it. It was building brilliantly.
Starting point is 00:27:44 By the time the last few seasons were coming on me and laura were hyped like it was it was one of them ones where you cannot watch this without me there will be murder yeah and then they just went and couldn't land it if like the in between is perfect three seasons pet like the uk just seems to get it right a little bit more and it probably is based on money yeah but then when it comes to comedy maybe we do want a little bit of an escape like how many messages do we get about this like i literally saw a tweet yesterday from a lady who was like do you know what i've stopped doing i've listened to i've stopped listening to self help and self-improvement podcasts and i've started listening to have a word from the start
Starting point is 00:28:21 and it's doing my mental health the world of fucking good because there's a level of like we're not trying to fix it we're just fucking around just trying to make you laugh maybe there's a lot to be said for those sitcoms who are like not trying to change the world yeah just trying to make you laugh the good place is perfect for that yeah the good place is so good like it's like suspend all belief and just enjoy what you're watching because not everyone can handle the reality like i know kirby enthusiasm isn't like brutal reality but there is a lot of realism in it and it makes a lot of people cringe because they empathize and then can't handle the that's the cringiness as well yeah the office gets a team of rum as well yeah what i love about the good place is it feels
Starting point is 00:29:02 real to me because of the setup the setup is this is the afterlife and then they make everything make sense like there's logic behind every yeah everything you have to suspend your belief for you're like they explain it oh yeah it's not just this for this it's yeah yeah because of this have you watched the good place i've watched a little i started it and then it just didn't care short episodes so you can just watch them in little bites they're funny um they follow on from each other but some of them stand alone great like great writing the perfect length great cast it's a proper it's the writers with that again it's the same team as the american office parks and rec it's all those yeah those ones mike sure who created that it's so good it's just genius that's
Starting point is 00:29:43 also why i like stuff like Rick and Morty. And I know you're not big into animation, but you don't have to suspend disbelief because it's a fantasy world. And if the writing's good, it can be as ridiculous as it wants because you are enjoying how creative the journey is on those episodes.
Starting point is 00:30:01 And also it's just so well written so much fun stuff they get very meta as well don't they they take the piss off itself and they take the piss out of you watching it
Starting point is 00:30:11 it didn't start like that and Solar Opposites is just an extension it's fucking amazing yeah erm and that's what we think is good there's the have a weird list
Starting point is 00:30:22 of good things what do you think is good? erm it's a little short but let's have a weird list of good things. What do you think is good? It's a little short, but let's have a break. Yes. That's spot on. Had my first therapy session yesterday. I could sense a change. I don't think you'd get up.
Starting point is 00:30:38 What? Because you were hungover to fuck. It was half five in the afternoon. Oh. That's weird. Me and you had therapy at the exact same time yeah I felt that as well
Starting point is 00:30:46 yeah yeah did you um turns out I'm sound she just said don't need to come back I'm just 20 minutes in
Starting point is 00:30:54 I'm gonna stop you there you're done I don't even know what you're doing here in fact could you give me therapy Adam and also
Starting point is 00:31:02 do you want a blowy have you done it have you a blowy have you done it before have you done it before done couples therapy before have you with the next girlfriend
Starting point is 00:31:11 yeah didn't work out what couples therapy was funny because she basically just told me that I was right
Starting point is 00:31:18 about all the arguments she was wrong that's what they're for they're judging the arguments he wins that one next 2-0
Starting point is 00:31:27 wow fucking hell he's doing well clipped to that actual company therapy that's pretty much what it is what are you all about I've never heard anyone
Starting point is 00:31:35 who's so wrong and I'm like yeah that went my way I'm happy with that what I'm right yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Starting point is 00:31:44 next time I think we should get a couples counselling by a man What? I'm right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Next time, I think we should get a couple's counselling by a man. Loaded the bases. I had a counsellor go yesterday. Yeah, sounds. Basically, she said,
Starting point is 00:31:53 you don't need to bother coming back. Yeah. This is Susie down on the docks. Yeah. Yeah, right. Sounds like an old indie song,
Starting point is 00:32:03 doesn't it? Susie is talking on the docks Susie on the docks just sit on a pallet I'll open up the warehouse come in sit down
Starting point is 00:32:12 yeah I'm definitely going to I'm going to write some stand up about the therapy stuff you're not going back what
Starting point is 00:32:19 you're really not going back she said I don't need to go back she said you seem healthy confident of anything I don't believe you is back she said you seem healthy confident of anything I don't believe
Starting point is 00:32:26 you is that real and your dick looks great did you ever spoke to her no he carried it on
Starting point is 00:32:34 for so long it became believable I believed it yeah there's things he started three years ago that we're still doing
Starting point is 00:32:40 his python dick you just keep leaning into it and everyone's like no it must be true how did it go was it helpful it was good yeah
Starting point is 00:32:49 yeah it was nice to get a few things off my chest I didn't realise how much had happened we did a lot has happened hasn't it
Starting point is 00:32:58 yeah fucking hell I don't usually do five hour sessions but we just kept rolling I found when my first ever therapy session that I just blurted loads
Starting point is 00:33:09 I just tried to do you know what I mean yeah that's the point isn't it you have to go hang on let me just tell you here's why I'm fucked up
Starting point is 00:33:18 let's talk about everything first couple of sessions were just me going and then this and then this and then all of this and then this and I
Starting point is 00:33:24 like how did you find that? Did you find yourself just... Where did you start? She said, I'm very detached from my problems. Because I say them. What? I say them like I'm reading them about someone else. No.
Starting point is 00:33:39 I'd love to see the start of that therapy. Right, Adam, what's the biggest problem? Like, it was last season. We were going for the quadruple and I think that's where it all started yeah me mum's dead
Starting point is 00:33:49 but never mind that was one of the best Liverpool teams I've ever seen play and to just get was it two trophies did you lie at any point to then realise
Starting point is 00:33:56 and tell the truth nearly because I feel like I'd do that to protect myself I'd be like what am I doing I nearly lied about
Starting point is 00:34:04 something that I won't mention I nearly lied about something I'd done and I was like why am I lying to protect myself i'd be like what i nearly lied about uh something that i won't mention i nearly lied about something i'd done yeah i was like why am i lying to her 9 11 just say that you were there that was me in it i don't want to ruin too much of the the routine i'm going to do but she took me through like the like the ethical stuff at the start she's like so you know if you talk about any of this, I don't tell anyone, but if you talk about this, this, this, and this, then I have to inform the authorities. And one of them was terrorism.
Starting point is 00:34:30 She's like, if you're plotting any terror attacks, I do have to tell the authorities. She doesn't usually say that, but she got a sense of you in the door. I'm just going to have to... Terrorism, what? It looks silly. So did you catch yourself about to lie
Starting point is 00:34:43 and go, what's the point? Yeah, what am I doing I feel like I'd do that but it was only once everything else I was just like yeah oh I
Starting point is 00:34:50 I yeah you tell a story and then the first few sessions I was on like session 5 or 6 and I was like and now I'm going to tell you all of that story
Starting point is 00:35:00 like I I found myself omitting stuff hell holding stuff back and then later on in the process you go what's the point I found myself omitting stuff holding stuff back and then later on in the process you go
Starting point is 00:35:07 what's the point I found myself just remembering stuff that I'd forgotten happened I was just like in the first session you've had a a phenomenal first session
Starting point is 00:35:15 I'm an open book though aren't I yeah you know what I mean yeah you know you're literally a locked book that's why you're there
Starting point is 00:35:22 no but like what I mean by an open book is like it's not like I naturally hold things back no he's you can't oh you just lock things away
Starting point is 00:35:30 you can't do this podcast for as long as you've done and be like I am now I'm really gonna tell you what I think do you know what I've spent the first
Starting point is 00:35:38 250 whatever now erm yeah but yeah I've never done what I'm on therapy before
Starting point is 00:35:45 it was just the couples one and the couples one genuinely was like right here's the argument we're having right and then yeah but you sort of
Starting point is 00:35:53 do do that it's like I feel like this she feels like that they're at odds with each other who's right that's sort of what it she was herb Dean
Starting point is 00:36:00 essentially yeah but then she kept going it's over oh 1-0 you'd let it go on for far too long
Starting point is 00:36:07 yeah yeah yeah hey nice Herb Dean reference thank you I didn't want to go to the couples counselling but er I was talked into it by me
Starting point is 00:36:15 my girlfriend at the time and then she was the one who stopped us going because she was like she's fucking silent with you all the time we're getting a different one
Starting point is 00:36:24 my mate Mandy do you use fancy doing a top five no no okay I want to hear more about his therapy top five therapists
Starting point is 00:36:33 top five therapy moments I had them all yesterday did you feel light after did you feel like oh I feel a bit better I still felt hungover
Starting point is 00:36:41 so it's when the therapist started clapping that's when you knew you'd had a good one that's the best first there's had a good one got an encore got an encore there's something that happened
Starting point is 00:36:48 that I'm not going to say just because I'm going to do it in the stand up but it's so funny right are you going to therapy for stand up
Starting point is 00:36:55 yeah basically I do everything buy tickets and you'll see what happens these click bait and stand up tickets fucking rat I want to know

Starting point is 00:37:51 you tell me do you remember yeah remember the person again though right top five this is from Dan Allinson top five simple pleasures something like a sit down
Starting point is 00:38:07 that is absolutely class but not life-changing just dead nice a few off the top of my head would be fresh bedding good cup of tea getting a snow day when you're in school funny sounding fart a wank etc etc so life simple funny sounding wank funnyank snow wank um my number one is my number one's sitting down sitting down is the best thing in the fucking world i love sitting down so much someone else cancelling a plan that you didn't want to do anyway oh yeah nice so beautiful you get the fucking all right i've got that fucking thing on friday and yet friday and someone's like adam just can got that fucking thing on Friday and you get to Friday and someone's like
Starting point is 00:38:45 Adam I can't make it and you're like you owe me one then the fucking Ronaldinho on a couch George's a good one have you
Starting point is 00:38:56 do you ever order takeaway and it's shit and you're very disappointed but you're full because you've eaten some of it getting a good takeaway and getting it right
Starting point is 00:39:02 you ordered the right thing from the right place yeah and they put it all in the bag yeah that's a simple pleasure when you're like
Starting point is 00:39:09 oh my god it's all there yeah they got it right it's what you wanted it's cooked I got the takeaway order right
Starting point is 00:39:17 because you can do this by reversing it you know when you go what were you getting for tea and then you flip flop and then get the wrong thing and you're eating
Starting point is 00:39:24 and you go nah I didn't really want this and then get the wrong thing and you're eating and you go nah I didn't really want this getting food envy's the worst isn't it when you order something and you're like you've ordered sounds good as well and then you look at it

Starting point is 00:39:37 and then there's debate about it and then it's disappointing you get it wrong and you fall off and you've spent money and you're not satisfied and no wipe poo
Starting point is 00:39:45 yeah can I just say any any form of satisfying plop I'm guessing I know for sure
Starting point is 00:39:56 just any form of satisfying plop I really like that a proper empty like a big solid one that like pushes
Starting point is 00:40:04 on the like every inch of your bum hole and it feels like a fucking car's coming out your ass yeah but wow no the last 20 percent of that is like i reckon that's what getting bum feels like no hang on that's not the poo i meant i like the poo where you go oh i need a poo and then you go i bet that's all the poo you know what it's just like yeah like i don't like the feeling when i'm like I need a poo and then you go I bet that's all the poo you know when it's just like oh yeah I don't like the feeling when I'm like when I can feel my sphinx

Starting point is 00:41:35 you look like a king there don't you when you wake up and you think you know when you've you have to get up early so regularly and then you wake up

Yeah, that would be pretty bad. But do you know what I mean? You already know you're going to die. You. Or you're knackered because you've got a terminal illness and you just die with the kids. Yeah, that would be pretty bad. But do you know what I mean? You already know you're going to die. You already know you're going to die. So you save them.
Starting point is 01:03:31 Terminally ill man drowns two children in murder suicide. Talked about for centuries to come. Adam Rowe. Yeah, you do something like that. You like push it, like push a kid out the way and jump in the way of the bus the way you jump in the way
Starting point is 01:03:48 but say you do something right yeah yeah not just like you he's just gonna fucking sit on a bike in flames
Starting point is 01:03:56 with two machine guns in his he's just shooting him in the air here's the thing I don't there's not many things I believe Michelle
Starting point is 01:04:02 right like spiritually I haven't got like any, any hard-set beliefs, but there is one thing I believe, and I've said it on this podcast before, and I will say it again. You die twice. You die when you die,
Starting point is 01:04:12 and you die the last time someone ever says, you know, you mentioned you. Isn't there, like, a Mexican... Yeah. Yeah, belief that's, like, that kind of... Is it Cinco de Mayo? Yeah, that's how you celebrate the Day of the Dead. Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah
Starting point is 01:04:25 yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Starting point is 01:04:25 yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Starting point is 01:04:26 yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Starting point is 01:04:26 yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Starting point is 01:04:26 yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Starting point is 01:04:26 yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Starting point is 01:04:27 yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Starting point is 01:04:27 yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Starting point is 01:04:27 yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Starting point is 01:04:31 yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Starting point is 01:04:32 yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Starting point is 01:04:32 yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Starting point is 01:04:34 yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Starting point is 01:04:37 yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Starting point is 01:04:42 yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah legit innit you know what I mean it's like culture no no no actually I don't know I don't believe so if I'm the fucking flamethrower machine gun man on a motorbike right
Starting point is 01:04:49 I'm gonna be Cinco de Mayo until the fucking early 3000s you know what I mean but don't you want to make what you do in your life the thing that you remember for
Starting point is 01:04:56 not your dad both just cover all bases you don't just need to do one you know what I mean like comedian just keep putting specials out people keep watching them
Starting point is 01:05:03 and also it's like KC McColl she's not remembered for being a singer she's remembered for the speedboat exactly you don't remember for that
Starting point is 01:05:10 you don't remember for the good shit both KC McColl was in the pokes oh okay she got hit by a speedboat that's how she died is it
Starting point is 01:05:17 I don't know why she got hit by a speedboat but yeah she was saving her kids on holiday talking yeah like her kid
Starting point is 01:05:25 was in the water she was trying to save the drowning kids did she did she actually save a kid yeah she saved her son
Starting point is 01:05:32 her own kid yeah she wasn't seemingly alone it was in Mexico Mexico there you go
Starting point is 01:05:39 it was in Mexico it all connected do you think you'd get more props after you're gone for saving your own kid or someone else's?
Starting point is 01:05:47 Someone else's. Someone else's, isn't it? That's heroic. Like, there's an instinct to save your own kid. I've seen someone else's kid drown and I'd be like, fucking hell, nightmare that.
Starting point is 01:05:54 Is that? Not really my... Back of your phone. This seems like a new problem. Yeah, it seems like, oh, this kid's drowned or someone... That's a good question, though.
Starting point is 01:06:03 Do you know if there was a body of water say like the doc and you saw the child and they're struggling yeah but there's nobody round would you jump in
Starting point is 01:06:11 no I'd ring someone even if you could tell like he had a minute or two and it was like of course you would you would you would
Starting point is 01:06:19 but you know you would you would no but you know listen I wouldn't video it. No.
Starting point is 01:06:26 I wouldn't jump in because I don't like the water. So I feel like I'd be more of an issue. Yeah. And I don't like kids drowning, but I really hate water more. I guarantee you, I would jump in. I'd immediately have a panic attack. My shoulder would dislocate. And then I'd just drown with the child.
Starting point is 01:06:42 Why are two families suffering? I'm telling you right now, that will get talked about for a while though. Also, you do get more valour for saving someone else's child. Because if you save your own child, there's also that extra layer of like, well, you were responsible for the fucker,
Starting point is 01:06:58 so why is he in the water? If it's just someone else's child, that wasn't your... Unless he's ran away from home. Yeah. You jump in. Yeah. Because I know someone loves that kid
Starting point is 01:07:06 as much as I love my kids what are you doing what's your plan you say he was an absolute gobshite and you die doing it and you've let a gobshite live and your children are now fatherless
Starting point is 01:07:13 so if I jump in and swim over and he's like oh yeah you're the fucking old cunt who's not funny I'll have a word I'll be like but what would your plan be though
Starting point is 01:07:24 what you're jumping in what do you you do just swim to it you do you do that thing in it yeah right yeah well you do that around their neck and then you're like when the world trade center was you know but got got attacked right they they did some report after and they sort of broke it and they realized that people go into like four sections right there's like four categories of people like some people were willing to just like they just wanted to save themselves instinctively right they were just like i'm gonna fucking step on your head to get down these they just wanted to save themselves instinctively, right? They were just like, I'm going to fucking step on your head
Starting point is 01:08:06 to get down these stairs. I'm going to save myself. Then there's another group of people that were like, let's brainstorm this and try and see how we can troubleshoot this situation. And not one of them survived. Carry on. Yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 01:08:17 Exactly. Because they're having a team meeting. They're getting a PowerPoint talk. Hang on. There's people that are frozen in fear right couldn't do anything just frozen in fear and then there were people that wanted to help and they were like these weren't really thought about this is just instinctively that you just fall into one of these categories all right well adam's crowd surfing down the stairs That's not true. Everybody go surfing. That's not true. No, me shoulder might go, I've got to get down,
Starting point is 01:08:46 because if that, I'll have a panic attack. Do you want to see this tower go down and me have a panic attack? No, that's not true. Do you know what I would do in that situation? I know for the fuck what I'd do. No, no, the thing is you don't know what you're doing. That's the whole point. No, I've been in similar situations.
Starting point is 01:08:59 Not the exact same. You've been in a similar situation? Ooh, ooh. What? Similar? Let's lower that word. Like when I've been in work- Ooh, ooh! Ooh! Ooh! What? Similar. Ooh. Let's lower that word.
Starting point is 01:09:08 Like when I've been in like a work and the fire alarm's gone and you're like, right. Yeah, that's 9-11. Oh, oh, oh. That's 9-11. Oh. And then you've got to have a cheeky cigarette outside. That's the same. It's 9-11.
Starting point is 01:09:18 Bro. Smoking. Oh, it's awful. Here's what I would do. I would, you know they're like- You don't fucking know what you would do. Well, here's what I think I would do. Okay. Okay, here's what I think I would do. I would, you know, they're like, let's... You don't fucking know what you would do. Well, here's what I think I would do. Okay.
Starting point is 01:09:26 Okay, here's what I think I would do. You know those people who are like, let's brainstorm a plan. I would skip that step completely and I'd be like, right, this is what we're doing and I'm doing it now. Yeah. So just follow me. It's a lot of his tactics in life, to be honest. I wouldn't be...
Starting point is 01:09:41 We're not discussing it. I'm right. You can all shut the fuck up and listen to me because I know how to get us out of here that door there just a fire alarm I've got to calm down
Starting point is 01:09:53 oh god do you know what I'd do I'd save one person who was less able than me because you're able to save one easy and you've still been a hero yeah
Starting point is 01:10:01 you've saved one exactly don't try and save everyone because you can't you can't save one person exactly can't save one person exactly so you save one person
Starting point is 01:10:06 and then crowd surf down the stairs I can't save them down the stairs I'm surfing on them sorry sorry sorry I'm helping one yeah you get one
Starting point is 01:10:13 old person or one young person you save one person you can't save ten but that's nicer because your your version is like I'm gonna make an
Starting point is 01:10:21 announcement that we should all be selfish cunts no we're not selfish cunts no they shouldn't be selfish they've got to make an announcement that we should all be selfish cunts. No, we're not. There's the door. Let's go. No, they shouldn't be selfish cunts. They've got to listen to me.
Starting point is 01:10:30 We shouldn't all be selfish cunts. I want to get us out of here. And I'm going to lead us. I'm like a lion, Michelle. I'm just a natural born leader. Just fucking follow me. Is this the five lamb or 9-11? Which one's this? Lion's famously good in 9-11 situations.
Starting point is 01:10:42 Everyone's like, yeah, this isn't a war. Where's it go, Adam? No, no, no, no, lad. We go through the kitchen. Follow me. You would have never listened to where the fire exits were if you worked in the trade centre. Where's ours? What? It's right there.
Starting point is 01:10:56 Where do we stand? I mean, outside. Outside? Yeah. You just follow Adam, he'd be like, right, suck the fuck up! Everyone, pick up an elderly person and fucking run I'll just get carried out Carl
Starting point is 01:11:10 could you help me I just I can't be dealing with like too many cooks in a situation like that it's just fucking too many cooks yeah
Starting point is 01:11:17 alright like in the kitchen same in the kitchen yeah if I'm in the kitchen cooking right let's say me and my missus are cooking dinner
Starting point is 01:11:23 right that's never a thing we're not cooking dinner either i'm cooking dinner and you can help under very strict instructions or you're cooking dinner and i will help under your very strict instructions but this team effort shite needs to go in the bin you need a boss you need a leader you need someone to take charge of the whole system and the other person's there to listen and do what they're
Starting point is 01:11:47 fucking told you're my favourite person to cook with I'll be like you take charge no it's all on you I'll do the cutting I'll get the bin over
Starting point is 01:11:54 and push all the crumbs in yeah exactly you're welcome you go in the toilet I'll stay in it but just never let him take over a country because it's going to
Starting point is 01:12:01 get pretty totalitarian no you listen to me there's no fucking elections. We're doing it this way. I swear to God. I think when it comes to country size, you do need democracy.
Starting point is 01:12:13 But any other time, anything smaller than a country, you do just need a dictator. It's just a better system. Just shut up and listen to me. Yeah. But what if you're wrong? Then it's egg on my face, isn't it?
Starting point is 01:12:30 Everyone's dead. Egg on Adam's face. You're never wrong. Just, just... You end up in Relate going, no, it wasn't undercut. Have I ever let you down? Nope.

Yeah, it's'll go through moments like it's mostly clean yeah it's mostly clean but like it's not dirty but i say that i can say that there's no one here to tell me that actually michelle you're a bit of a filthy cunt but it's mostly clean but sometimes i like to
Starting point is 01:13:38 like celebrate the fact that i can do what the fuck i want yeah just by letting everything going yeah exactly exactly Putting clothes on just so you can take them off and throw them everywhere. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, but you have to pick them up. You don't. You pay Jackie.
Starting point is 01:13:50 She comes round and does it. Oh, you put them in a bin bag. Get rid of them all and buy new clothes. He's done that as well. Are you a bed maker? Do you make your bed? Yes.
Starting point is 01:13:58 That is one thing I do as soon as I get up. I do that as well. Are you a cushion on the bed? Do you know what man i i okay i think there's not many women out there who hasn't had a big fucking pillow moment all right and now i've passed it and i have as many pillows as i need to sleep on and that is it yeah because i've been i got lost in the fucking the pillows have had me in a chokehold yeah you know the whole
Starting point is 01:14:23 of the noughties it was just like pillows pillows pillows pillows oh dean on cushions yeah yeah it was too much man cushions yeah themed cushions i got this from the i used to treat cushions like fridge magnets do you know what i mean they won't stick to your things no no they fucking wouldn't but you know what i mean like i'd go somewhere and be like oh that's a nice cushion yeah i'm gonna get that really yeah no they all have to be matching for me. You know what I mean? I have a lot of cushions
Starting point is 01:14:47 on my bed. On your bed, do you? How many? So I have three on my side, three on the other side. No, they're pillows. They're pillows and then I have two cushions,
Starting point is 01:14:58 one on each side and a third cushion that's different to the other two in the middle. That's a good format. That's like the 4-4-2 of cushions, isn't it?
Starting point is 01:15:04 Really? that sounds like really tacky hotel vibe that you've tried to recreate in your bedroom it's that vibe isn't it
Starting point is 01:15:13 no is there anything sat in in there me and this the couch that was a very hurtful thing to say Jackie will be
Starting point is 01:15:21 really upset about that there's no crushed velvet there isn't? No. All right, cool. Is there? What colourways are you going for in your house?

Klein blue is one's like this artist called Yves Klein you know like every now and again an artist is like I'm going to have my own colour and no one else can use it yeah Klein blue is one of my favourites Klein's about like Calvin

Starting point is 01:15:57 the person who done my graphics has made Sensei Red you just can't see it really yeah I can't see it I'm colour blind though, so red and green.
Starting point is 01:16:07 Won't even mess. Why is it not tapping shit? So you've gone in and gone, this is exactly what I want. They've matched your tone. No, Alex just did it and said this is Sensei red and there's the hex.
Starting point is 01:16:17 Oh, that's a very good blue. Isn't it? Yeah. It's fucking special. I think the whole of like Frida Cole's house is painted in that colour. It's royal blue blue Like a royal blue

Starting point is 01:16:41 Colbert blue Then it's kind of similar What have you got in Colbert blue in your house? Like, walls? Just cushions? Quilt cover. Bedsheets.
Starting point is 01:16:50 The couch. Everything. The fridge. The doors. Me balaclava that I sleep in. Me gloves. I think he's a secret Everton fan. Got fucking blue everywhere.
Starting point is 01:17:02 In the flat. Now, I've got a few things. A lot of dark grey dark grey though as well okay like charcoal love of charcoal just gives off very masculine vibes
Starting point is 01:17:11 you know what I mean when I was a single man women would come round and go fucking charcoal he's a keeper yeah is that what they'd say out loud yeah
Starting point is 01:17:18 charcoal and cobalt where's the ring I wasn't going to shag him but look at all this fucking charcoal I'm in if you've really got is that is this real you've been to his house I wasn't going to shag him, but look at all this fucking charcoal. I'm in. If you've really got... Is this real?
Starting point is 01:17:28 You've been to his house? Apartment? Yeah. I can't remember the charcoal. It does ruin the fact that... Because the apartment I'm in was furnished. Yeah. Like, a lot of the stuff I've added.
Starting point is 01:17:40 But, like, you know, I have come for very masculine colours in cobalt and charcoal, but then the headboards are all yellow. Yeah. That sounds like it goes together really nicely. It does. No, it does. It does.
Starting point is 01:17:53 Yellow, blue and grey. Yeah. Nice. Yeah, I know you're not picturing it right. Wait, wait, wait. What am I not picturing right? You've got a yellow headboard. I can just tell from your answer.
Starting point is 01:18:03 A yellow headboard. You walked in that flat and he was like, wait. What am I not picturing right? You've got a yellow headboard, bro. I can just tell from your answer. A yellow headboard. You walked in that flat and you was like, yeah. No, to be honest, I was in the middle of a mental breakdown and I thought I just wanted to live in town for a bit. So I just took the first one that anyone would give me. That's beside the point. No, no, no. It's not beside the point
Starting point is 01:18:16 because you would need to be in a weird mental state to see that and go, I'm fucking taking it. That is actually... It's a nice yellow though. What kind of yellow? It must tell from your attitude that you think it looks shit. Oh though and you're not picturing it it's mustard that you think it looks shit oh okay mustard
Starting point is 01:18:27 yeah alright then yeah that's alright I don't mind that a mustard headboard yeah right I don't mind it
Starting point is 01:18:36 but you haven't really matched the colours to it but I do like it is it a fabric headboard yeah it's a velour kind of thing yeah
Starting point is 01:18:42 oh is it yeah okay so there's the velvet. Feels good. Yeah. That sounds so weird by me. Feels good. Feels great. My mates just spent
Starting point is 01:18:54 £1,600 on a mattress. Just moved into a new gaff. Yeah, Simba. I got a Simba a couple of years ago and it was too firm. That was because I bought the firmest one they do and I wasn't happy. Don't they do a 200-day back guarantee? Yeah, yeah, but then...
Starting point is 01:19:09 You're 200 days back. He's not sending that back. Who's sending a mattress back? It comes in a box. You've got to try and get it back in a box. See how comfy is my bed? My bed is insane. I have never spent that much on a mattress.
Starting point is 01:19:21 But spending on a mattress... You can get dead nice ones for 300 quid. It makes sense, though, doesn't it? Spending on a mattress. But spending on a mattress... You can get dead nice ones for 300 quid. It makes sense though, doesn't it? Spending on a mattress. Couch and mattress. You should spend on. You spend most of your time. It's a 10 to 15 year investment.
Starting point is 01:19:32 I spent £1,400 on a mattress once. And to be honest, the one that I had after, it was like, remember when everyone's crazy about Tempur-Pedic? Yeah. I bought one when I was living in New York. Super expensive. And then after that after a while it started to like hurt my back it sort of did too much do you know what i mean
Starting point is 01:19:49 and then i've got an ikea one after and i was like this is actually more comfortable how much 400 quid i think it's like 200 ikea ones are sick they are 300 quid memory foam ikea hoxton hotels i want to find out whatever matches they have because that is the best night's sleep i ever have really we've got a super king as well so it's uh eight foot wide massive yeah i can't i can't see it i can't see getting spending that much money on a on a mattress because it's the thing aside from your couch is the thing you spend your most no i get it i'm not i'm not sleeping on cardboard it's not like 1600 quid or i'm on a like a fucking concrete slab i get it i just think you can get a decent uh mattress for 400 quid i just'm on a fucking concrete slab. I get it. I just think you can get a decent mattress for 400 quid.
Starting point is 01:20:27 I just don't. I just feel like it's... I don't think you've tried it yet. No, it's true, yeah. What did you do with yours that was too hard? Your 10, 15 year investment? I just kept it until I moved out. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:20:36 Good investment. And left it in the house. Why was you having a mental breakdown, if you don't mind me asking? Well, I went through a breakup and I thought I was fine. But as it turns out, I think I just, you know, bought a Range Rover and moved into a 2,500-month apartment
Starting point is 01:20:51 within the space of two weeks. So it was, you know, it was a fun breakdown, you know. I could have been throwing my shit at the walls and shouting at traffic, but I wasn't doing that. No, I was the traffic in my Range Rover, driving into my apartment, bribing women to give me parking spaces. It was a good time.
Starting point is 01:21:07 I had a really nice time. Hang on, you're still driving the Range Rover and you still live in the flat? Yeah. And you're still bribing people? It's not a breakdown. No, he's through the breakdown. I mean, it can't be.
Starting point is 01:21:18 I signed a two-year lease on the apartment. You can't just walk out on that then and the car's going to take me five years to pay off. The catalyst of all them things were the breakdown. He's through it now and he's enjoying the stuff yeah yeah but I think
Starting point is 01:21:28 that breakdown looks like it's worked out yeah totally that's a good way sometimes people have a breakdown and they do something mental and then they
Starting point is 01:21:35 regret it have to go back yeah you've made all of that breakdown stick yeah totally and also he could walk out on a two
Starting point is 01:21:40 year contract he's definitely got it in him leave the lights on wander off 100% Michelle we went to the States three weeks ago i was away for two weeks and his heating was on the whole time oh my god do you know what i've been fucking talking about this man because i left my heating on by mistake and i literally came home opened up the door it was

Starting point is 01:23:54 we went to Nashville for 10, 10, eight days. Eight days in Nashville and then they did four in New York. Really?
Starting point is 01:24:01 What did you eat while you was there? What was your favourite meal in New York? Do you know what? It probably would have been Peter Luger's Steakhouse. Yeah. Really?
Starting point is 01:24:11 I was too hungover to enjoy it properly. Okay. Did you, Peter Luger's right. Did you have, because they're like, we can, we do two sides.
Starting point is 01:24:18 One is chips. The other one is raw onions and tomato. Yeah. The fuck is that about? I didn't order that one okay cool that's not a side because everyone goes crazy but they're like you and it is it is a great steak but but as the size i've ever had the crust on it was i don't know it's amazing is it you as you eat it you're like i'm gonna get gout like it is it's definite and i love it as well yes if it says
Starting point is 01:24:42 on the menu this comes with gout yeah sign'd be like, yeah, sign me up. Yeah, it's good. We literally just walked in and went, can we have the biggest steak you do for us too? And some chips. And that was it. It's amazing though. That was before our flight home.
Starting point is 01:24:56 We did that and then went to the airport. When you lived in New York, did you ever cook? Did you ever make food home? Or were you just eating out all the time? No, man. Also, the way your apartments are, it's like, it's not, it's not big enough to like cook and like you've got a cooker, but you know, you're not using it at all. And like, I can't cook anyway, but no, is the short answer.
Starting point is 01:25:16 Constantly eating out. Always. Cat's Deli for a big pastrami sandwich. That's always like me first stop. Cat's Deli? Yeah. Do you know that they um sold the airspace above it for like millions of dollars did they yeah because they were like oh
Starting point is 01:25:30 we can build above this and that there was some big thing in the in like the press where it was like they they sold the space above it for millions because they can't knock the building down because they're sort of listed so they build sideways and over sort of i've seen i've seen a few pictures of buildings like that where it's basically like that one's you can't touch it but you can sort of build side and above i don't know if it was that i think it was like they they owned the actual space the cat's daily space they own that and so these developers came in and were like how much and? And they were like, we're not selling it. And they were like, but for above. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:26:07 I think it was like that. A lot of money. Like it was just flat and it just built on top of the building. Oh, right, right, right, right, right. What was your go-to in New York when you lived there, food-wise? Where was my go-to? Yeah. For food.
Starting point is 01:26:19 Do you ever go back? Yeah. Regularly? Yeah. Well, pandemic, no. But yeah, I mean, I only moved back here in 2019. But yeah, I'll go back. The first couple of times we met, which was at Top Secret in London,
Starting point is 01:26:31 I was sort of introduced as, oh, that's Michelle from New York. Yeah. So I thought you were American. Yeah. Because when you're talking to each other in the basement at Top Secret and there's loads of noise, I just didn't pick up on your very obvious British accent. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:26:46 And then I always thought you were from New York until like two years ago. No, I would seem just like a right dickhead if he was just like, she's only been here a couple of months
Starting point is 01:26:53 fucking listening. You all right, mate? Yeah! How long you been here? Six months, brother! Golden Diner was good as well. That was it. Is that what it's called Jack?
Starting point is 01:27:06 yeah where? it's sort of what's it called? The Golden Diner oh what street's it on? 5th the diners are just fucking amazing
Starting point is 01:27:17 like you've got all of that on the the menu's just like got like a breakfast thing and a brioche bun but also a side of Korean chicken wings at breakfast time yeah it's just oh it's legit you're not living this fucking shit you know what okay this would be this would be my um oh by the way man that fucking um recommendation
Starting point is 01:27:36 that you gave me last time i was here i was amazing that food was out of town that italian place fucking it's the best saying in saying but my go-to if i was in new york would be i get up i go to any random deli and i get a bacon egg sausage and cheese roll and i get a coffee and fuck it i'm on holiday i get a packet of cigarettes as well and i just bosh them can you do that can you can you smoke a pack of cigarettes on holes and then leave it no when you get home? No, I always come back and then I'm smoking again. But you know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:28:09 I delight in myself. I'm like, ah, it's fine. I just do it while I'm here. And then six months later, I'm like, yeah. But no. Have you ever smoked? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:28:19 Do you smoke? I used to. You don't anymore? Do you vape? I do, do. Oh, he vapes like watermelon sugar shit. anymore? Do you vape? I do, do. Oh, he vapes. Like watermelon sugar shit. Watermelon sugar. Vape.
Starting point is 01:28:28 I got hypnotized to get off the vape. I got hypnotized twice. What? It was bad, man. Hypnotized? I think, I've been hypnotized a few times for smoking, but I think vaping is...
Starting point is 01:28:39 Awful. I think it's worse than cigarettes because you just do it all the time. You just always fucking got it in your hand. You put a lighter cigarette and put it out and like there's a thing that you can just pick it up. Well, okay, done. Yeah, also you can do it in people's houses.
Starting point is 01:28:50 Like you would never smoke in someone's house, but like I would be vaping. Like I'd go into someone's house. I wouldn't ask him, do you mind if I vape? I'd just like maintain eye contact while they're chatting and I'd be like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And if they don't say anything, I'm like, I'm fucking doing what I want.
Starting point is 01:29:05 Do you know what I mean? What was your flavour? I'd go cream tobacco, elf bar. Yeah. I've never had that flavour. If you've had to be hypnotised multiple times, surely it doesn't work. Shut up.
Starting point is 01:29:16 The first one didn't work. But you're off then. So this one's worked. For now, for now, for now, yeah. Till you're on holiday. Till I'm on, well, the last time I was, I went to Dubai and you can smoke inside there and I was just like, wait, what?
Starting point is 01:29:31 Cigarettes are well, they're just. They're delicious, man. Yeah, you can hate, you can hate vapes and everything, fair enough. But like the actual, the smell of it, the fact that other people have to smell it and that you fucking stink. And your fingers, I hate it.
Starting point is 01:29:45 I hate it. Take my little sugary fucking candy vape like fine but don't but don't you just miss like if you could that's what that's why dubai got me i was like i was inside i was visiting my friend and she was just like oh can i get an ashtray and i was like what the fuck is going on she's like yeah yeah you can smoke inside i was like I'll get the fag then it's fucking horrible over there what Dubai in general I mean in general yeah anyway
Starting point is 01:30:09 but like that's the worst bit of it every bar is just everyone smoking I love it I was like I'm back baby I'm back

Starting point is 01:33:03 I'm like picking things that aren't there is it not just better to let it like run its course with stuff like that I don't know it's self harm I think yeah exactly like I think that I can I think I'm
Starting point is 01:33:20 fixing something I know it's not working but there's something about it that calms me down you know how people pull their eyebrows not working, but there's something about it that calms me down. You know how people pull their eyebrows and stuff like that? There's something about it that calms me down. I know I'm fucking up my face. Pull their eyebrows? Yeah, you know how certain people pull their hairs out of their eyebrows?
Starting point is 01:33:34 Or bite their nails or something. I bite my nails. I've learned such self-control, that I let them grow so they're quite long. So then you can dine out. Then I can fucking save and up. Itphone. So then you can dine out. Then I can fucking save and up. Right.
Starting point is 01:33:48 It's like I'm saving up for nail night. Yeah, exactly. I know what you mean by that. It was nail night earlier this week, and especially if I'm pissed as well.
Starting point is 01:33:55 If I'm drunk and I'm like, I see me nails, I'm like, oh, that's so shitty. You can't like, open the can of it and stuff. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:34:03 I don't like that. Who gets pissed on a night out? It's all over town. Then goes, lovely. Me. Don't need takeaway. Everyone's got something grotty in it that they do. So that's me.
Starting point is 01:34:16 And yours is biting your nails. What's yours? I still pick my nose and eat it like a fucking child. Do you? Oh, I'm gross. Do you know what's similar to eating boogies, though? I used to, like, eat the burnt heads of matches. It's got that same, like, grainy sorting.
Starting point is 01:34:31 Right, yeah. Now, that did make you seem like a murderer, didn't it? Is that a model thing? What? Is that because you were a model, weren't you? Yeah. No, mate, it's not a model thing. We're about to go on the runway.
Starting point is 01:34:44 Wait, wait, wait. Oh, you bought a whole box. No, it's not a model. You're trying to last all sitting back still. We're about to go on the runway. Wait, wait, wait. Oh, you bought a whole box. Maybe some swans. No, do you hear models have like diets that aren't healthy to keep their figure? Yeah, someone will eat sticks
Starting point is 01:34:52 in that country. Like a box of mascaras for tea. No, they just do coke. What is this? What? You know, we eat sticks. No, but there is some models out there who are eating
Starting point is 01:35:00 fucking cheese and that. Some of them eat cotton buds, don't they, to fill their stomach up? Cotton buds? Yeah. Yeah, there was chat about cotton wool balls but i've never seen the closest thing i used to see when i was modeling is like eating binging throwing up that that that is probably closer to it or just starvation do you know what i mean just like you'd see people and you're just like okay you're in deep like i was lucky when i was when i was modeling i was just naturally healthy skinny no skinny do you know what i mean yeah but
Starting point is 01:35:30 you were healthy with it you weren't like punishing your body i weren't i didn't have a good diet she was eating matches yeah yeah munching matches um yeah but uh i've never seen anyone eat a cotton ball right do you know ever so it's just like a myth i just feel like yeah it's like some urban legend thing like i would joke about it but i'm like i've never actually seen it with my own eyes i've seen girls hoover up mountains of cocaine that helps you with your appetite do you know what i mean i've seen just blatant starvation or if you'd see back then you'd see someone like eating loads of food and you're like and then they'd go toilet and you're like you're gonna go throw all of that up with them with the coke is it it just an
Starting point is 01:36:10 accepted thing like a fashion show if you're on a shoot is there just some coke on the side or is it hidden no not not now definitely i don't think now but like back then it was it's not even necessarily that there were certain pockets where you could do it. Like, especially if it was the shows. I remember I always had an agent when I first started. I didn't, I was like just a weed smoker then. And she'd, I'd go to Paris and she'd go, if you want to party, come to mine.
Starting point is 01:36:35 And I didn't understand the coding. I was just like, no, I don't want to fucking party. I was like, party? I was like, no. The gin and tonic. That's the puzzle. It's a well-known euphemism for cocaine now. Yeah. I've picked that up over the years kids party that's not it's a different euphemism yeah yeah yeah yeah just to let you know if you
Starting point is 01:36:52 get a party invite like in that seven it's probably going to be a party you pick your nose and eat it do you do you try and like are you because i've got a friend who picks his nose and eats it and i can watch him out the corner of my eye and he'll pick his nose and then he tries to like and I'm like I fucking know what you're doing oh yeah I do that if I'm ever going to eat it
Starting point is 01:37:10 I try and play it off so I'll just be like yeah no no there's nothing in my hand no no I'm just picking my tooth oh bogey don't say that
Starting point is 01:37:18 give it away not wet bogeys dry bogeys right this is why I'm saying burnt match edge you're not doing like a sloppy wet bogey I saw bogeys, right? This is why I'm saying burnt match heads. You're not doing like a sloppy wet bogey. I saw someone sniff the fingers the other day.
Starting point is 01:37:29 It was the most like in a dressing room. Someone, I don't know how long, I didn't see the scratch. I didn't see the itch. I don't know where that finger had been, but I just saw a, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. You've had a fucking little rummage.
Starting point is 01:37:47 And then in your head, you're like, don't smell it, don't smell it. Is there a female version of that? You just go like that, yeah. Well, actually, to this, well, most of the time, if I go to the toilet, I sniff the gusset of my knickers. I've got to press a button. I don't know which one it is. I'm just deciding.
Starting point is 01:38:11 It's this one. Mama like that. Because imagine it. Mama like that. You pull your knickers down and they're right there. And you're weeing. I just go. Oh!

Is it about your life yeah kind of like loosely based about you know a sort of aged an aged model comes back to like london and she's basically like homeless but she's trying to front like she isn't do you know what i mean so she's got like keeping up appearances kind of thing going on but but like better yeah nice is there is the puking out the window story in it fucking no and also morning
Starting point is 01:47:54 yeah no no no that's not in there um should we do some underrated overrated yes hit the jingle hit the jingle this is just a thing where we say a thing and you say, that's overrated or that's underrated or that's just great. All right, cool. Could be anything. So the first one we've got is Primark. It's fucking overrated.
Starting point is 01:48:18 It's a shit shop, isn't it, where you go when you're skinned and you need cheap stuff? It's good for socks. I think if you're skin you skin it's pretty good rated yeah but everyone rates it you don't need to
Starting point is 01:48:29 over it like oh do you know what people don't give enough time and attention to Primark it's like yeah
Starting point is 01:48:35 everyone loves it so overrated but is it as good as people say it is that's what we're saying it's as cheap as people say it is
Starting point is 01:48:42 yeah do you know what I mean yeah and like you go in there you're gonna go in there you're gonna find something and you're gonna go that's a fucking bargain and you're gonna leave with it and then it's gonna disintegrate as soon as the air touches one wash and it's done one wash my friend and it is done t-shirts are finished after the walk like if you want like a throwaway t-shirt for whatever reason it's good or if you want 20 t-shirts for
Starting point is 01:49:05 Sensei Carl's chaotic quiz that looked mental when I was buying 10 orange t-shirts and 10 purple ones different sizes but yeah
Starting point is 01:49:14 also the queue in Primark is never not like it's never not stressful yeah it's 40 people yeah
Starting point is 01:49:21 yeah 40 pissed off people but they're quick I will give them that like the till people yeah it's 40 people, minimum. Yeah, yeah. 40 pissed off people. But they're quick, I will give them that. Like the till people. Yeah. It's like fucking supermarket sweep for them. Yeah. It's like they're all on a challenge.
Starting point is 01:49:32 They're like, fuck, do you want a bag? No, where's your clothes? Fuck off, next. Yeah, no, they're good. They're good. They don't even charge. They could do sort of those car, like, the paper bag bags and shit.
Starting point is 01:49:44 They're poo. People are buying 40 quid of clothes at a time, which is like 80 fucking items. They're trying to protect the environment, you pair of heathens. They're also selling 40p jeans. What? They're selling jeans for 40 pence. They get thrown in a landfill.
Starting point is 01:49:57 No, but I mean, like, they're not trying to save a da-da, are they? Yeah. Everything helps. I never leave there. I never leave there happy. No? I'm never like, fucking yeah, I'll just leave there. And never leave there happy. No? I'm never like,
Starting point is 01:50:05 fucking yeah, I'll just leave there. And I'm like, thank God I've made it out. Can you name a shop for me where you do leave thinking, fucking yeah. TK Maxx.
Starting point is 01:50:12 Okay. And that's why I was asking you earlier. I said, what time do you want to start? Because I was like, I'm going to go in TK Maxx, go and have a little meet you around the gold label, try and get some bargains.
Starting point is 01:50:22 Similar jumble sale vibe though, isn't it? TK Maxx. Similar. Better clothes you think? Yes. Well, well tk max's brands that have been like so it's like a it's like a um outlet store for every brand in it yeah yeah i so my idea of hell like if i get to hell it's uh like the devil will go here's a phone and there's a pile of uh virgin tv contracts and you've got to call virgin and cancel all of them one by one that would be however i would i would never a close second
Starting point is 01:50:52 would be go and find an item of clothing that fits you and you like from tk maxx yeah i found shorts in there in glasgow once and they were like extra small or like 4xl I hate it so much. So where do you go and get your clothes then? Like shops where like you walk in and they go,
Starting point is 01:51:10 right, you see that jacket you've got in the window? Have you got that in every size? Yeah, can I try the large and the extra large? Cool,
Starting point is 01:51:16 take the large. Like Zara. Okay. Zara's solid, isn't it? Take him actually go and you go, I'll find these shorts. They're like the perfect ones
Starting point is 01:51:23 that I'm after. Have you got these in my size? No. Yeah. But we have got them to fit either a baby or Rick Waller. So,
Starting point is 01:51:31 which ones do you want? All right. So when I go there, I'm going specifically to the gold label. So that is a, that is like a smaller bit of,
Starting point is 01:51:40 you know, things that you can pick from. Don't they have the mod shop as well? I don't know. TK Maxx have got like a, like the cooler clothes. Haven't't they they do it like a section called the mod shop i know they organize the shoes in order of size rather than fashion i like design which is the most insane thing ever what that's great man i just want to see what's available i don't want to see a pair of shoes
Starting point is 01:52:02 and then be like oh it doesn't fit although i don't really buy shoes from TK Maxx, but whatever. I don't either. I mean, come on. It's not the most insane thing ever. No. Like, I get what you mean. It might be not. But like, it does sort of. I think that works for their shop. If you want a size 8, you can see them all. Aesthetically, it's ordinary. Yeah, it's a jumble, sir.
Starting point is 01:52:20 I'm underwhelmed by the suggestion of Primark in this section. So it's overrated. What's your idea of hell then? Adam said there's an unending contract. Probably the same, man, because Carphone Warehouse keep on calling me and saying, you're ready for an upgrade.
Starting point is 01:52:34 And I'm like, I don't care. I would rather keep the phone that I've got so I don't have to fucking talk to you. Which is an iPhone 5C. Put them on a 12. It's not bad, isn't it? Yeah, I'm just like, I don't care because I just don't
Starting point is 01:52:45 want to do the admin yeah admin my idea of hell is watching a romantic period drama on repeat forever
Starting point is 01:52:51 dear John no is that period period drama where nothing happens and I'm like I fancy him oh you can't
Starting point is 01:52:59 he's skimmed yeah although that's alright actually on your couch no just having to sit and watch it just put me on a chair
Starting point is 01:53:07 and I've got to watch period dramas on repeat oh my god like Downton Abbey like is that worse than musicals yeah he's never seen a musical
Starting point is 01:53:16 I have I've been to Broadway in New York I've seen Phantom of the Opera I've seen School of Rock I've seen other things I haven't seen the garbage
Starting point is 01:53:23 you like Dean Evan Hansen, shite. Fucking sick. All this, you know. Waving through the window. But certain much opinion dramas where nothing happens, they're just like,
Starting point is 01:53:33 oh, I love him. Well, I can't love him because he comes from a family I'm not allowed to love. He's written a letter. Yeah. Oh, read it out, read it. Quite like him.
Starting point is 01:53:41 Finn? Another overrated, underrated, full English breakfast. Underrated. Yeah. It's just... Because some people are just like, quite like him Finn another overrated underrated full English breakfast underrated yeah it's just because some people are just like oh breakfast food
Starting point is 01:53:50 shit it's not it is a perfect meal to start your day got a good amount of like meat the more bacon the better
Starting point is 01:53:58 one or two sausages is fine two eggs ash brown black pudding beans in their own little... Ramekin.
Starting point is 01:54:06 Well done. Is that you? Is that you? That's better. Yeah, but if the beans are in a ramekin, if I went into a caf and the beans were in a ramekin,
Starting point is 01:54:13 I would question the authenticity of that greasy spoon. No. Right, because beans in ramekins is also cherry tomatoes still on the vine. That's not giving me
Starting point is 01:54:22 proper good English breakfast. Yeah, you can shove them right up your arse you know what I mean I don't want the tomatoes at all to be honest with you but then oh because all tomatoes
Starting point is 01:54:28 are heavy I don't like tomatoes but beans in a ramekin you're not getting a decent English breakfast you are beans in a ramekin is just
Starting point is 01:54:37 that's like beans in a ramekin sounds like a fucking great album it's just beans in a ramekin I understand what you're saying I I understand what you're saying. I do understand what you're saying.
Starting point is 01:54:49 I don't like that hand. That hand's like, but go fuck yourself. Yeah, well, I do want you to go fuck yourself because I will take beans in a ramekin over the possibility of the beans touching me. All right, all right. What's a fucking ramekin? Hold on, hold on. It's a little bowl.
Starting point is 01:55:01 A little bowl? The little glass things. You know, like those like goop desserts come in. Oh, there's ramekin. Oh yeah. Yeah. We've got loads of ramekins.
Starting point is 01:55:11 Do you sound like someone who eats one thing at a time in their meal? Because otherwise you'd be fine. Are you putting a bit of everything on your fork at the same time?
Starting point is 01:55:20 What? Like a pedophile? No. They're lizards. There you go. There you fucking go so you're eating the beans at once and then you're eating the bacon a bit of sausage beans i'll have a fork full of beans and i'll eat them and then i'll have a bit of sausage yes off whoa that's
Starting point is 01:55:36 the right way to do it dude what i'll have an are you the person who squashes it on one fork what are we doing no that makes i'll put i'll make a little Bacon butty With me toast I'll put me bacon On me toast And make a little Bacon butty And have that And I'll dip that
Starting point is 01:55:50 In me egg Little tiny meals In one meal Why do you think They put it all together? Just have a bacon butty All in ramekins No you need a fucking
Starting point is 01:55:57 Blender That's what you're after You might as well Fucking just neck it Is everything in a ramekin? I won't eat bacon In a ramekin No you have little bits My napkins in a ramekin? I won't eat bacon in a ramekin. No, you have little bits. My napkin's in a ramekin.
Starting point is 01:56:08 You save your favourite things and near the end, so you're happy about it at the end. How is your mouth dealing with the texture mixture of mushrooms and sausage on the same fork? What are you talking about? Why would I order the meal if I wasn't going to put it in my mouth at the same time? Because you don't have to put it in your mouth at the same time. Because you don't have to put it in your mouth
Starting point is 01:56:25 at the same time. You're a fucking idiot. That's what I think. Do you put chips on your pizza? No. Why? This is not the same meal. Don't try to swing the pendulum too far mate.
Starting point is 01:56:35 Chips on my pizza. No, who's having chips on their pizza? Well you put all your meals together in one big bite don't you? So have you had pizza and chips? I wouldn't have pizza and chips because I'm not a fucking tramp. Do you know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:56:46 Like, those are two separate meals. But what I'm talking about is the... Wait, does everyone in this room do that? You're staying quiet. What about you? He doesn't eat. I don't trust ramekins. And I've just decided.
Starting point is 01:56:57 But what about the fire? Do you eat one thing at a time? No, I'm not... Do you eat a burger and then go, I'll finish my burger now. Now I'm going to have the chips. I mean, I think we're describing autism, aren't we?
Starting point is 01:57:08 Can we stop for a sec? It's a bit spectrum-y to me. Burger and chips is a perfect example because pizza and chips, I understand. No, can we stop talking about pizza and chips? I don't know what you lot fucking do in Liverpool, but this is savage. We can, listen.
Starting point is 01:57:20 Let's not, I want to take this off the table as an example and now move to burger and chips. Burger and chips, right. So you've got a burger and chips. Take this off the table as an example and now move to burger and chips. Burger and chips, right. So you've got a burger and chips as your meal. Yeah. Are you telling me that you put chips in your mouth at the same time as the burger? No, you know why?
Starting point is 01:57:33 Because I'm a fucking lady, all right? I'm not like... Yeah, so you have them separately? And then I'll go... And that's what I do with me breakfast. Oh, so you have burger in your mouth and go, chips as well? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:57:43 Wow. No. Michelle, get off this hill because you are going to die on it. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. It is psychopath behavior. No. You lot are on a little shitty hill together and I'm on a mountain with the rest of society. No.
Starting point is 01:57:57 No, no, no. You are on Michelle eats burgers like a twat mountain. All on your own. I'm telling you right now no one in the history of food has ever took a bite of their burger kept it in their mouth and added chips to it you are on your own hey do you know what i'm not fuck you fuck you fuck you fuck you fuck you you lot are fucking idiots adam deals only in in absolutes. Of course. Why is it absolute fucking twat? Because that is a shitty suggestion.
Starting point is 01:58:27 You take a burger, you're chewing it, you're throwing a chip. Also, I don't care. You lot fucking put chips on your pizza. That's right. No, we don't. I was asking you.
Starting point is 01:58:34 No, we don't do that. That's what we were saying. You don't do that. Because you would never do that. Because you eat chips and pizza together. At the same time. Who doesn't have a side of chips? Chips improve every cuisine as a side.
Starting point is 01:58:45 Can I ask one? Anyway, underrated. Next. Can I just ask? Because I'm kind of in the middle of either of you. Just come over here. Stop fucking sucking up to these knob cheeses. Some meals are separate.
Starting point is 01:58:59 But, for example, sausage and mash, you have them on the same fork. Obviously. That's because you get the sausage and get a bit of mash. Oh, don't prove me wrong. I'm just saying that there are examples where the stuff is meant to go together. Examples, examples.
Starting point is 01:59:14 It's on your side. What are you on about? I'm sticking up for you. No one's eating sausages and then eating the mash. Michelle's just come for more. No, I'm not. Finn's like, you got a good point there. She's like, no, I haven't.
Starting point is 01:59:23 Fucking shut up. No, but that's not a good example because everyone's eating sausage. It's like, you got a good point there. She's like, no, I haven't. Fucking shut up. No, but that's not a good example because everyone's eating sausage. It's just, you know what I mean? Fish and chips. Bit of fish, bit of chip. No, I have a bit of the thing on the plate and then the other thing on the plate
Starting point is 01:59:34 and then I'll alternate. Sometimes I eat like six chips, a bit of fish, loads of fish. I'll mix it up and then I'll finish them all together. Listen, I appreciate what you were saying. Thank you. I'm not saying that I'm not in need of an ally,
Starting point is 01:59:46 but I would just like a better example. Okay, roast dinner. Roast dinner. Thank you. You've got a bit of everything. A bit of everything on a roast dinner. Thank you. See, that's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 01:59:55 Absolutely not. Before we move on to a roast dinner, and yous are already wrong before we even started talking about it, here's why the mash thing is the exception or part of an exception yeah and with fish and chips there's the same exception because like if i have fish and chips i'll also have mushy peas with it okay and mushy peas i would have with either a bit of fish or the chips
Starting point is 02:00:14 because it's runny and the mash is like runny you can mix stuff that's runnier than what you've got with the stuff right Right. Like beans? You don't have fish and chips. You don't have a bit of fish and chip together. You have a bit of fish, you eat it. I think Dan was saying he does. Is that what you were saying? I mean, it's not unheard of that you are munching on a bit of burger
Starting point is 02:00:35 and then you get a few fries in as well. Thank you. I mean, is that... Oh my God. Yeah, exactly. Oh my God. He's like, how could you? You've never said that in three years.
Starting point is 02:00:44 Roast dinner dinner surely you mix some stuff up like like I know this is probably a weird example to the nth degree of what you were saying
Starting point is 02:00:52 roast dinner by the end of the meal I will have a tiny bit of all my favourite things and they are ready for the last bite I'll have a
Starting point is 02:01:01 a spud and then I'll have a bit of me meat and then I'll have me but then but then but then a bit of a roast I'll have a bit of me meat and then I'll have me... But then a bit of a roast potato with a bit of meat is like a chicken...
Starting point is 02:01:11 No, I just don't do that. I want to enjoy the spud. Oh, I did that with your Christmas roast. I had a little bit of... Do you know what? This is actually blowing my mind because I thought that people that only eat one thing at a time
Starting point is 02:01:23 were like in a really small minority and I'm just not I'm not sure that all of that minority is in this room like do you know what I mean I'm just like
Starting point is 02:01:32 what the fuck oh we agreed though that if you eat everything individually in order that is full on spectrum stuff that's awesome yeah
Starting point is 02:01:39 yeah yeah either side while I'm eating that fish was nice I better chip after that I'll be good oh them chips are great I'll have five chips. Right, Adam's fucking counting the beans.
Starting point is 02:01:47 He's like, one, two, three. No, man. I'll do a fork full of beans and I'll be like, right, a bit of me sausage. Oh, that was nice. Bit of me egg. Do you know what?
Starting point is 02:01:54 Bit more egg, actually. I'll double up on me egg. You might finish the egg. Yeah. And then just throw the ramekin. Wow. I honestly have never... Ramekin's the greatest thing to happen to the English breakfast, I've never, the greatest things happen to the English breakfast.
Starting point is 02:02:07 I've never heard anyone talk so passionately about something that I could give less of a fuck about. Yeah. It's an amazing few moments. I am. I am going to say though, I would like, I think if you're having an English breakfast and there's a ramekin there, you're eating at the wrong place.
Starting point is 02:02:20 I'm not, that's more brunch vibes. That's it. Okay. What do you mean? Whatever. I understand., that's more brunch vibes. That's it. Okay, what do you mean? Whatever. I understand. As an olive branch,
Starting point is 02:02:28 I understand your... As an olive branch? I don't fucking want it. I don't care. You're wrong. Do you know what I mean? She chops down the olive branch. As an olive branch.
Starting point is 02:02:37 Oh, thank you. Ah. What's next? You never mentioned it. Sorry, everyone who was waiting for that. Should we just have a little middle ground here?
Starting point is 02:02:46 Absolutely fucking not It's an argument Me too Right Should we do some advice? Yeah We've got to wrap it up Oh
Starting point is 02:02:54 Do you want to have a word then? No do the advice Fuck the have a words Do the advice Okay Are we having the jingle or are we just going for it? Can I say it in Fede?
Starting point is 02:03:04 Start off then Here to help I'll solve your problem Oh not start singing Can I say it in Fade? Start, Finn Here to help I'll solve your problem Oh, not start singing I think the producer told me to fade it Right, okay So Dan
Starting point is 02:03:13 Go on, Finn This is from Agony Adam This is from Rees Mulkerrin Wag wag boys Hopefully this is the right email Otherwise I'm fucked Sure
Starting point is 02:03:22 Basically I've always told my missus how strongly I feel about things that are unattractive to me, such as short hair on girls, piercings, et cetera. She's now contemplating the idea of an eyebrow piercing,
Starting point is 02:03:33 the kind of one that 14-year-old boys get. If she actually does it and I don't find her attractive anymore, do I tell her before or after? Love the pod. How can you tell her before if you don't know what it's going to look like yet? Hasn't he already told her before by saying he doesn't like him?
Starting point is 02:03:50 Yeah, but if she goes through with it, is that a blatant disrespect? You know this? You lived this situation. You literally lived this situation. I did live this situation. So Finn's ex-girlfriend knew he was allergic to cats and bought 12 cats.
Starting point is 02:04:03 Right, that's why she's your ex-girlfriend. And this is the thing. When we do that, what we're doing, it's just a little test. We're not actually going to go and get our eyebrow pierced unless your ex-girlfriend, she was like, I'm really going to fuck him off. Do you know what I mean?
Starting point is 02:04:15 It's just a little test thing. She's not actually going to go and do it. What she's doing is she just wants you to tell her that you love her regardless and it doesn't matter what she does. That's it. And if she does it... See, women love being regardless and it doesn't matter what she does. That's it. And if she does it, if she gets the piercing,
Starting point is 02:04:30 she actually wants to fuck him off. Yeah, but she's a fully grown adult. Who's getting an eyebrow piercing as an adult? Also, can I have a ruling on the girls with short hair?
Starting point is 02:04:39 Because I think it looks great. It depends on the face. I suppose so, yeah, a little bit. But I've never, I quite like short hair. Don't think it's a bad thing. It very much depends on the face I suppose so yeah a little bit but I've never I quite like short hair don't think it's a bad thing it very much depends
Starting point is 02:04:47 on the face that guy's dead against it if a girl can pull it off it looks incredible but if they can't it doesn't he's got nothing to worry about
Starting point is 02:04:55 she's not gonna she's just testing him she's like mum I'm thinking about it how do you feel if I got a neck tattoo do you know what I mean and then he's just
Starting point is 02:05:03 gotta go I'd love you regardless look out for that face that face is a giveaway if she does that face Michelle are there any like red flags with you when you see someone
Starting point is 02:05:12 you like them like facial tattoo eyebrow piercing I mean a facial tattoo would be nose piercing tongue split do you know
Starting point is 02:05:20 to be honest I'm like what would it be maybe maybe a man bun that would probably do it but I'd do you know what I mean honest, I'm like, what would it be? Maybe a man bun? That would probably do it. But do you know what I mean? If the person was cool, nah.
Starting point is 02:05:30 Do you know what I mean? Even if a teardrop? Yeah, no, that's hot. No. I believe that. Yeah, no, probably more clothes, to be honest. What about the tattoo of another woman's name from his past? Well, it happens, doesn't it? On it on his cock well how long's their name that could be exciting well it's alex and he
Starting point is 02:05:51 gets hard on it's alexander yeah whatever man do you know what i mean like everyone's had a life innit i went out with a guy who had some really bad like 90s tattoo that was kind of hard to that's kind of hard actually boys on his forehead yeah exactly but no no no no nothing like that I saw him till he started dating hiya love you alright? yeah yeah
Starting point is 02:06:12 no I'm warm question do you remember Euro 96? because I enjoyed that tournament quite a lot it's Euro 96 it's Gaza Crown no it's the actual emblem
Starting point is 02:06:25 the official fucking you wait for emblem it's Galion I can do it I don't know if I've got
Starting point is 02:06:34 a particular red flag that would Carl's got a fucking long list have I I feel like
Starting point is 02:06:40 you're quite pernickety I think if a woman got her pussy I was in the restaurants on a first date, that might put me off. Right?
Starting point is 02:06:47 Yeah. She was just like, hey, I'll look at that. I'd be like, do you know what? You're a bit too far. Can we get the bill, please? Yeah, maybe, yeah. No, I haven't got any.
Starting point is 02:06:54 It's not, like, behaviour stuff. Yeah, loads of behaviour stuff. But if we're talking about, like, physicalities. Piercings or hair. No. You just said clothes. How important is that? No, I'm saying maybe, but how important is that like no I'm saying
Starting point is 02:07:05 I'm saying maybe but it's not like I'm saying if it was anything it would probably be clothes because that's something you can't like it's not like
Starting point is 02:07:12 things that you can actually help you know what I mean so what's like if he turns up in a top hat is that a no-go I mean
Starting point is 02:07:20 yeah to be honest that would be a no-go yeah nobody's gonna Rolls Royce and he's dressed in like top hat and tails yeah
Starting point is 02:07:27 he's like let's go to the ball yeah then I'd probably be like fucking hell this guy's a bit eccentric I'm going to the ball let's see what's cracking but then
Starting point is 02:07:35 when he gets to the ball he just meant a Tottenham game yeah I don't know what else oh Dan Dan what a fitting tribute this episode has been to my late
Starting point is 02:07:46 grandfather thanks for coming in michelle good um you know what it's been an absolute pleasure and i'm happy that i could like remind you that this is actually no joking matter about your granddad yeah it's fun it's fun it's like when you're trying to make light of grief grieving it's great for someone you don't seem like you're grieving though you're just here for the bands do you know what i mean yeah this isn't the wake though is it i kind of get what you mean but we are on an episode of have a word and if i don't turn up if i imagine these fucking animals if i came and go guys could we just do a sad one today adam would be like yeah like come on yeah but no one's sitting there going oh god he hasn't mentioned yet
Starting point is 02:08:26 that his grandad's dead like no one's saying that so he could have just not said anything I woke up to that news I just wanted to know I'm crying for an hour were you
Starting point is 02:08:35 and then you were like fuck the skiing joke I've got to do that he would have loved that never met him but I was so I thought I wake up just because
