Rob Beckett for me. Rob Beckett because I'm done. And Josh Whidderkin? I'm done, I'm done. I am done. And Josh Whidigon. I'm done. Say Josh Whidican. I am done. Say Josh Whidican.

I'm done. Okay, I am done. Say Josh Whittaker. I'm done. Okay, I am done. That sounds like a breakup argument. You can that's the favorite ever I think. That is definitely straight into number one that. I am done. That sounds like a breakup argument. Like you can imagine someone shouting after their girlfriend on the train platform and she's just going, I'm done! He's like, but please, I'm sorry, I'm done! We've got Josh Winnikum tickets, I'm done! Well, you won't be doing them for a good four years. Someone, someone message me, yeah, right? Going, is your, this was like, so, yeah,, this was like about an hour after the second like 10pm curfew announcement. When is your gig still happening tomorrow?

I mean, come on, can't get a pint at half ten. We're not going to fill a theatre. People have heard that you're running short Rob. They know, they know. To you fair, I do, only finish by 10, my show. Josh, how are you doing? All right, I should say that's Grace, the daughter of Nick Carmichael Jones. I'm done, I don't know. Oh you're done, okay, so I'm done. Okay.

They had their moment. They're at the moment. Um, I am doing this from my daughter's nursery, so because, um, because, um, because, their that's that's that's that's that's that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's. that's. that's. that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's..... that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's that's that's th. th. th. that's th. th. that's great, th. that's great, that's great, that's great, that's great, that's that's great, that's that's that's to a bedroom? Well I think soon because we've got a, well we've had a bit of a nightmare actually right. Oh perfect. Great content for us, let's go. We've ordered, she's going, she's moving into a bed. Yeah, moving into a big girl bed. And we ordered the bed and the mattress has turned up two weeks. So we've currently got a mattress in our hallway by the hallway by the hallway by the hallway by the hallway the hallway the hallway the hallway the hallway the hallway the hallway the hallway the hallway the hallway the hallway the hallway the hallway the hallway the hallway the hallway the hallway of the bed so we've currently got a mattress in our hallway by the front door for the next two weeks. Oh that's ridiculous. Absolutely gutted. But she can't just sleep on a mattress

like some kind of heroin addict. There's no way that trains spying. She's not in Pete's doggy's Albion rooms. I do think there's a danger though that mattress may start having nicknacks to be put on top of it. Because it's sitting their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their th. It's tho. It's tho. It's tho. It's thoes. There's thoomats. I's th. I's th. th. th. I's th. I's th. I's th. I's th. I's th. I's th. I's th. I's th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the the the the the. the. the. the. te. te. tea. So. tea. tea' tea' tea' tea' tea' tea' tea' tea' tea' tha top of it. Who is the worry? If it's sitting around us for two weeks, I only came round for an hour and a half the other day and there's a teapot on my shoulder. I'm so high. So I'm sat because I cleaners here. So I normally record it from my bedroom, but I'm in my daughter's nursery. That's a terrible state of affairs the Wifi doesn't the the the the the the the bedroom, but now the bedroom is being cleaned, so I'm in my daughter's nursery. That's a terrible state of affairs that the Wi-Fi doesn't work in the office. It's so annoying.

It's, I describe it as the most annoying thing in my life. Really? Well, there is, the Wi-Fi is good enough for normal Wi-I for everything except these recordings and zoom. Yes. So I had to have a zoom meeting the other day from the chaise long at the end of my bed. Wow. Did you lay on it? Did you fully lay on it or did you sit perched on the edge? I lay on it. There's some grapes.

Yeah, yeah, with some grapes. Obviously. I can't get a chaise lounge at the end of your bed just as the that chaise lounge at the end of your bed just as dirty clothes thrown on it. Does it get you, does it ever gets used as a chaise the chaise lounge? No, no. That's the first time it has done in fact. Oh really?

Yeah, so it was quite the clean was in there an hour ago, so it's actually the best it looks all week of all the points this week to come in. Are you in the in the cot? What's the situation? No, I'm sat at the microphone on small chest of drawers, which has also got my laptop on a pint of water, a cup of tea on some bomb cream. On the old bubble, the pseudocrim? Yeah, on the pseudocram. The reason it's on that... Is there another cream for the ass? I don't think there is, is there? Well, there's various creams for the ass, but I'd say...

That is the... That's a good week. I've been pretty busy at work and then we had quite stressful It wasn't stressful actually but we had a wedding with the kids. Oh wow And they were prize mates. Oh, right. So you were they within the 15 or whatever it is that are allowed? Well, it was the last it was the last wedding of 30. Oh lovely lovely, lovely. The glory day is 30 person. thirty person. the thirty. th. th. th. the th. the th. the th. th. the the th. th. th. the the th. th. the th. the the th. th. the the th. the the the the the the th. the the th. th. thi. th. th. their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their. their. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. We were th. We're we were we were we were we were we were we're we were we're we were we're we Now it's only 15. So that's quite lucky, actually. But we had, so that were the prize maids, but the church, this is not the fault of the bride and groomed. It's a lovely wedding, by the way, we enjoyed it. Can you hear the screaming coming from my mo-

Yeah, that's my daughter? I'm going to say it. I've had my feel of working from home. I'm over it. I'm completely over it. You want a nice juicy hour commute somewhere. Oh mate, six months more of this, genuinely, if this is the new normal, me perched in a nursery with some tea on some bum cream listening to my daughter cry while I attempt to engage in an anecdote about a wedding that is too small and we can all agree with it then. It's so hard to concentrate even if you're not looking after you're in charge of the child if you can still hear them screaming in the background. The absolute guilt so... No you shouldn't have the guilt though because you're at work now, Josh. Yes, but we both, but look at my job, Rob.

I'm not welding together something. I'm literally just talking. I'm moaning. I'm moaning. And then I'm like, it's that thing where I'm going to let you into a secret here, yeah. I even know my wife guilty to go downstairs to get... My tea intake has gone down because I feel guilty to go down and come back up. Do you know what I mean?

So you're not having lunch or anything? Well I do have lunch, but like normally, in before the new normal, I'd have had four or five cups of tea in the morning to really get me through it. Now I'll have one when I go up and thuuuuu I go down I've got to then do that awkward thing where I basically go oh yeah there is a difficult morning. Anyway I'll see you later I'm going back upstairs and I find that's so such a do not feel the guilt. Well I think it's more because our job is fun so you're not like going've got to go up there because I've got to finish your report or my boss is going to be down my neck. It's basically, Rose knows that if you come up 10 minutes later it just means it's one text to me and to Michael, I'll be 10 minutes and neither of us really

care. I should have said I was an accountant and tried to keep that up for 10 years just just out of the light also as well people have been stagging.... people people people people people people people people people. people. people. people. people. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to me. It's just, to me. It's just, to me. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's just, the. It's just, the. It's just, the. It's just, the. I. I. I's just, the the the the to me. I's just just, the to me. It's just just, to me. It's just, it's just, it's just,ging off Michael for not bleeping the CUNTs in an episode, aren't they? I was quite pro letting him slip in, so, you know, Michael's still a great guy. I think that's the bottom line. He's currently having an absolute nightmare over worrying how he's going to edit the crying from this. I'm convinced that he pretends this and he just goes off and does other stuff while we'll find out, we'll wen, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, We'll find out. That does happen, I'm not going to lie. Anyway Josh, you want to hear about this wedding, right? Yes. So they're bridesmaids, so it's quite an important part of the day, isn't it, right? And they're only four and two,

so it's quite hard to explain what they're doing. So they had to have a wedding rehearsal. The only time the wedding people could do it was 545 on a Thursday evening. Oh, bearing in mind, so I got told about this on Thursday morning before the school run and Lou went, yeah it's at 545, right? And then the four-year-old heard this, so went, oh, we're going to a wedding rehearsal? Yeah, and she went, when? I've got I've got to go to school and I've got a swimming lesson at 430 even the four year old went I'm gonna be so tired and I was like I know how was the rehearsal well on we had to go on the way we had to get him some lunch we got him a dinner so we still got him like a McDonald's right I don't know I don't you've the the the th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th tho tho tho tho tho tho to thin I've to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to go to go to to go to go to to to to to the to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the. the the. the. I'm the. I'm the the the. I'm the the the the theee. the theeeeeee. theeeeee. I thee. I the the. I got him like a McDonald's right I don't I don't know I don't know you've only just got your car but I think I've lost kind of the amount of times I've tried to order a drive for McDonald's with their try to their tribe at me nuggets burger chips. Trying to order a drive for two children shouting at you they're all done is I think the hardest thing I do in my life. Yeah but that's th. th. that's th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. I thr thr I the the thr I thr I thr I thr I thrown their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their thr- I've thr-I thr-I thr-I try try try. I've try try. I've try try try try. I try try try try out. I try try try their their think the hardest thing I do in my life. Yeah, but that's so much about your life.

I just felt like saying to the bloke, look mate, I come here twice a week at least. It's always the same older. What do you think I'm gonna order? My muckerib? Oh, nine milkshakes actually. It's the same thing had little jobs? I had to face time the 90-year-old grandparents that weren't there. Oh my God. Right. Oh my God. Oh my God, mate. In a church, you know, it's hence why it's not always implemented because he's busy and the Wi-Fi.

Why were you face up? And then did you have to like hold them up so they could watch? Yeah, 45 minutes. Oh, mate. So I was holding it the whole time. I'd like a pain in my arm in the evening, but also as well, like, I couldn't get them, And I got given my phone by my father-in-law, he's got a really old iPhone, right? And he went, oh that's it, and it wouldn't go through because the father-in-law had been

trying to ring them on their landline to face-time. Oh my God, oh, I mean, come on. I had to go into the phone and then I got locked out. And then I got to go into the phone. And then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, I, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, the, the, the, the, to the, to to to to to to to to their, the, the, to to to to to their, to their, their, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, and, and, the, the, the, and, the, the, the, and the, the, and the, and the, and the, and the, the, the, and the, their, the, their, their, their, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, to. And, to. And, to. And, to. And, to. And, to. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th was like, what's the pass code? And he was like, uh, and he told me the pass code. So I got back in and then I managed to face time them. But then as I started face time, a minute into the ceremony, a little thing come up, you've used 80% of your data. Oh my god. Oh my god, oh, mate. It was like, we got now we're going to get some chairs for the bride and groom

so that they can sit down. I was like, oh yeah, good to know what they're going to be used for. Just get them out and stack them for a laugh. Is that keep a two-year-old or four-year-old quiet during a ceremony so Lou very clearly did a bag of like toys and stuff for the kids so it was quite nice a little like pink bag with stuff in it so it was like coloring in stickers to toys and stuff like that okay so we got long it's about long it's about 45 minutes that's a long time for a two year old to sit to sit silently isn't or or or or or or or or or or the or or the the the the to the to the the to the the to the the to the to the the to the to the to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. the toy. the the toy. the the toy. the the toy. the toy. toy. th the. the. the. to to the. th. four-year-old to sit silently, isn't it? Or you? And me, yeah, I did really laugh, though, when she said about that we've got to get chairs so they can sit down, but it did, but I just couldn't help it. Are you socially distanced all the way back through the church? Yeah, so we're all spread out. There's a gap between each row and stuff. It was almost like an airplane aisle. That's what I felt like trying to keep them calm and quiet for like a foot and fulmin'. So, you know, stick it, like little sticker

books, they peel off a sticker and they just stick it on the right page, right? Lou, the legend had taken out because basically you get a book and then it's like page. And then it's like the stickers for the dogs and the their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their stickers. Lick. Le. Le. Le. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. L. It's, the sticker. L. It's, the sticker. It's, the sticker. It's, the sticker. It's, the sticker. It's, the sticker. It's, the sticker. It's, the sticker. It's, the sticker. It's, the sticker. It's, the sticker. It's, their sticker. It's, their sticker. S.K.K.K.K.K.K.K.K.K.K.K.K.K.K.K.K.K.K. their. their their sticker. Right, so I would class that as a silent activity, but you? Yeah. Yeah. And also because no ripping of the page because she's already done that and staple it to the right page. I cannot believe how loud stickers are in a church. It was so loud. Everyone's looking around right and we're all panicked because I'm like, it's too loud. And then I'm trying to tell Lew it's too loud. Loo. Loo. Loo. Because. Because. Because. to to to their. their to their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their ripping. No their ripping their ripping their ripping their ripping their ripping their ripping their ripping their ripping their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their the page. Because the page. Because the page. Because the page. No the page. No the page. No the page. No the page. No the page. No th thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thipipipipipiping the page. the the the the the the the the their their the tell Lou it's too light, just with eyes, because I've got a mask on. So I'm just sort of like doing like, big eyes and nodding, going too loud. Then I'm trying to pull the master. What was loud about it? I can't, I couldn't, Josh, I'm the peeling.

The peeling and then just a book and then like, one of the dogies in the dogies. of nowhere, right? Lou whitted out, which is basically, it's your star player, a lollipop, right? Yeah. Because, you know, if they're licking that, they can't speak, can they? Genius. This is a great tip if you're in a church, you're trying to give it quiet for a wedding. She'd already unwrapped the lollip. Oh, wow. Genius. Wasn't it stuck to her? I mean, wasn't wasn't, wasn't, wasn't, wasn't, wasn't, wasn't, wasn't it, wasn't it, wasn't it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's not, wasn't it's not, wasn't it's not, wasn't it's their it's they're stuck. It's not, wasn't it's not stuck. It's they're stuck. It's they're stuck. It's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's not. It's not. It's not stuck. It's not stuck. It's not stuck. It's not stuck. It's not stuck. It's not stuck, isn't stuck, isn't stuck, isn't stuck stuck stuck, isn't stuck stuck stuck stuck, isn't stuck stuck, isn't stuck stuck, isn't stuck, wasn't stuck, wasn't stuck, wasn't it's not stuck, I,'re right Josh, it's not sticky until the first lick. And it worked. And then that saved a day because I thought stickers are going to be alright, but it was awful. So she whipped out and unwrapped Lolly and like you say, it's not sticky until the first lick. It's not sticky until the first lick. So there that was a game changer. Also on that's a game changer. Do you know, on that, do that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, th. That, th is, th is a th is a th is a game, th is a game, th is a game, th is a game, thi, thi, that, that, that, that, that, that's that's that's that's that, that's that's that's that's that's that's that, that's that, that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that, th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's that, that, that, that, that, that, the that, the the that, the that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that,ubbit, do you remember the massive gobb stoppers? Yeah. Awful, massive big gobb stuff. And then you'd die. I swear I used to like half lick it and give it to my mom and she put it in a bag in a tissue.

They were they were rubbish. They were terrible. What were your top three sweets, Rob? Your top. Love a white mouse. I love the bombon. Yeah, yeah, bonbon. My dad's older, so he used to get me into all the weird old stuff. And were there's. Yeah, they're weird, that odd little, lit criss he likes. Well, not for me.

But like I can say, an unwrapped lollip, that's the line, that's that is, that's too loud. Could you imagine? Imagine trying to unwrap a chub-chub? Yeah, that's the thing and there's no thing in a wedding. I suppose you could do it all during the hymns and stuff, go right, let's wrap it during the hymns. No, no, no one's religious in there, no, no, no's that's that's that's that's the their their their their their their their their their their their their their is religious. No one's religious.

It was as good as you could, it was lovely and you couldn't have done any better in COVID. But also as well, they're quiet, quiet, so they would never have been like a mad for a party type anyway.

Do you remember this? Finley, FOIA FOIA was supposed to start school yesterday but he couldn't

because he was struck down by Corona. Anyway we've had an update from Abby. Hi, Rob and Josh, thank you for including Finley on the podcast of being so kind for sending your sympathies. Thankfully, he is totally fine now with no lasting side effects. He is loving school and was so excited to get stuck in. I'm so relieved to see the back of him each morning after so many months. But it really goes from a really nice message. They love in school, I'm so relieved to see the back of him each morning. I do love him though, honest. If I'm trueful, looking back, I swaned into that test center telling anyone that would

listen, he's just a precaution. He definitely doesn't have it, rolling my eyes. What most likely would be a common cold. I was totally flawed. I've been to get my appendix, tapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapap. to to to to to to to to to to to. to. I. I. I. I'm, to. I'm, to. I'm, to. I'm, to. I'm, to. I'm to. I'm to.

No, no, you can't be too sure these days, but you can't be too safe. Went in to get my appendix, out, and I was just thought, oh I've got a bit of a stomach thing, I'll just go in. Next thing you know, they're like, so you'll be staying in overnight to have to be the append up to have your your your your to have your to have your to have your to have your to have your to have your to have your to have your to have your to have your to have your to have your to have your to have your to have your appending to do celebrity tipping point. Absolutely heartbreak off. You got to pull out a tipin point last minute. I had to pull out a tipin point last minute. Did you text Shepard directly?

I didn't text Shepard directly. I did talk to him about it when I went on a GMB to promote something. However, Alex Booker replaced. thinnecettings. That was a delightful. Oh, brilliant! It's almost worth having your appendix out. It was almost worth having an appendix. If you've got to go under general anesthetic for anything, it is in order for Alex Brooker to be beaten by Joey Essex. Exactly.

Oh, dear. Oh, anyway, so this Abby just said, yeah, he's all healthy back in. So her husband Chris had to shut himself away in the smallest room in the house, use separate bathrooms, cook his own food, and have no contact with us for two weeks, but thankfully no further issues and we're in the clear again. I'll be honest with you. It sounds like Chris, is that an absolute blinder there. He's absolutely smashed it. But yeah, good on your Finley and I hope you enjoy school. Corona free. Enjoy school, Corona, free. Should I tell you about my week on Tuesday's episode and we'll show we do some emails? Right, Joshua, have we got any emails from our lovely listers? That's an interesting question, Rob, because

I mean yeah you're right actually that my issue is I just I'm kicking myself because I should have got it at the start of lockdown yeah then it'll be trained by now yeah but I don't know if I don't know I spoke to you during lockdown I don't know if you've remembered your mental health during lockdown. Yeah I don't think I didn't didn't need a human and dog shit all over my ass. Just one animal, one species. Yeah, exactly. I don't think you train them in the same way as well. That would be a mix-up that you wouldn't want. I did sort of train the two-year-old like a Harry Bow on the end of her nose yeah flat palm I can't feed a whole flat palm you've got to go flat palm which he's got my

So it's thanks Oliver Barry Isard. Yeah, that is a mouth for, would it? Middle names were always embarrassing and bad. That's kind of what they're there for, isn't it? What's your middle name? Michael, which is just after my granddad who passed away just after I was born. Okay. So I always get that out quickly in case someone starts taking the piss and then it makes it all.

I, tha like you know some people call me Bobby Beckett but we be beck it does sound like a 70s entertainer but my yeah my mom said she went well I gave you all names that you could have on a building site or in an office what I love is a skyscraping ambition that's the thing my mom was like they're almost definitely gonna work on a building site so Dan Rob Joe or an office the thing an office the thing an office is so vague it basically you haven't ruled out out out out out out out a a a a the the office was a the office was the office the office the office the office the office the office the the office the office the the the office the office the the the the office the office the the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th.

ruled out anything. The office was to throw away. That was the throwaway ambition that probably wasn't going to be realized. So it was like, you're almost certainly going to be a cab driver or work at a market or building site. Did you work on a building site? No, but I worked at a flower. the other brother. T.

He's putting loads of funny scenes from films of people getting a haircut. And he's got two albums, one called Shops and one called Cuts. Oh yeah, I don't know, I mean You're saying, wow, this podcast is powerful. Anyway, names. So, oh, that's a middle name.

Yeah, I think we've got to do worse middle name. Send in your worst middle names. Yeah, send in your worst middle names. Did I ever tell you there was someone, I mean, this doesn't feel real, but it is true, in the nearby school and his surname was Hare's and his first name was Dickon. Dick on hairs. So it was called Dick and Hare's like Dick and Hairs. I remember at school once when it was like 13 there were kids arguing and then so went oh shut up you've got a bald dick right okay because when you're 13 pubs are a big real big deal and it's real real stocking trade pubs and he went you've got a bald dick, right? Okay, because when you're 13, pubs are a big realist.

That's a real big deal. And it's real, real stocking trade pubs. And he went, you got a bald dick and the bloke went, yeah, of course, if you don't get hairs on your dick, you get them around your dick and on your balls. And then the other guy just went so rare because he was a real. brutal. Anywes that guy is waking up every morning looking at his penis dreaming of it being hairy. Imagine if it was a bit horrible that sometimes it all slough soul. Seriously, I was completely bald pubic hair but a really hairy carton that dog's tail. Oh God. Oh God. Sorry right anyway what's the other one? What have a email you got there Josh?

Okay do you want one on kids' parties, Rob? I want one on kids' parties, please. Right, I had my eldest a few years back. It was his seventh party and wanted it at LaserQuest. Not wanting to exclude any classmates, invited all 24. I booked it for 30 thinking that possibly a few dads would want to get involved to supervise how wrong I was. Yes, the dad's got involved

but in competition against each other. So I had to supervise a party of 24 kids on my own. What was worse that there was another party of 20 kids going on at the same time? Oh God! 44 children! Lazers everywhere! Needless to say, it was hellish. When each parent came back looking relaxed and calm, I realized I hate them all. My boy has the first party of the year,

so I set the standard, which was also very stressful. Now though, I prepare how stupid of me thinking I could single-handly run 24 kids between six and seven. Oh my word. And then getting them all out and trying to sort out there lunch, getting them around a table. Absolutely unacceptable. I'm not a fan of LaserQuest, I think it's absolute bullshit, I should say that from the office. We did it. There was a big birthday thing when I was a kid. Yes, Quaser. We used to go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to to to to to to to to their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their, their, I their, I their, I their, I their, I their, their, th. th. the. the. the. the. thei. theoooooooooooooom. th. the. the. the. the. th. the same thing. Yeah. I just remember being really anxious and stressed and there'd be loads of smoke everywhere. Yeah and because my hair, you know when you're a kid, your hair is much blonder. I'm sure your hair was very blonde or your kid. My hair used

to in the under the ultraviolet light my hair would glow. So I was an absolute sitting down. Me and my teeth as te riding around in the dark getting shot at. Me. Me. Me. Me. Me. Me. Me. Me. Me. Me. Me. Me. Me. Me. Me. And my. And my. And my. And my. And my. And my. And my. And my. And my. And my the the the the the the the the the the the the th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th the.

And there. And their. And their. And their. And their. And their. And their their their their their th th th the. And to the. And theateat. And theateateateat. And theateat there's there's there's the. And there's there's there's there's there's big hole. Just this big set of teeth running around in the dark getting shot at. My four year old has been invited to a Zoom birthday party, but I don't know how that's going to work. I think it's just like an hour and I think they're all going to go and zoom and I don't know what they're going to do. But I think they may have got their their to go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go their their to go their to go to go to go to go to go their to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to to to go to go to go. to to to to to to go to go. to go. to go. they's going they're going. they're going. to go. to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their to go. to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the to to to the to to to to think they may have got like a, you know that sometimes they get like princesses, to like go to the house, but I think that they might just be doing it on Zoom. They're just gonna doom in a princess. Yeah, just basically sort of like a corporate for a princess for a kid's time.

And I don't know, I don't know,? So maybe if you're going to, oh look, if they're dressed up as Elsa you can be like, oh it's Elsa, and then they sing. And they may watch that for a bit with their friends. And I think they just find it funny seeing their mates on the screen. But I think they just find it funny seeing their mates on the screen. But I'll let you know how it goes. Are you going to just just just just just just just just just just just just just just. to just. their. to just. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. th. their. th. th. they're going. they're going. they're going. they're going. they're going. they're going. th. their. they're going. they're. they're.

I'm funny, can't I just watch frozen on the tele? Yeah, what, yeah, exactly. Why would you want to watch a tribute frozen via a small square and a grid of children that don't give a shit? We'll find out. I let you know how it goes. This is a great email Rob. Go for it. It's called Names you Regret. And the subtitle, Alexa. Alexa, open brackets, includes Excel charts, close brackets.

Okay. Your discussion about names reminded me about a time when I was in the park for my daughter, Thea. I heard a mom shout with a five-year-old kid, Alexa put that down. My immediate thought was, oh boy, I bet you regret that name. So I did some investigating. The Amazon Alexa was launched in the UK in September 2016. He's attached a graph. I love it. He's got a graph. I love this guy. That year, as represented by a black line, we'll put this on the Instagram. There were 332 girls named Alexa. In 2019 there were just

39. 39. In 2016 it was the 167th most popular name. In 2019, it was the 920th. Oh my God, it's almost like Adolf levels of drop-up. Yeah. I mean, it would be a disastrous name to have. I was watching a documentary on some, it was on BBC 4, it was like one of those quite dry BBC 4 documentaries about some period in history. And there was a historian who was about 60. And he was called Harry Potter.

And I'm, I would think his whole life must just be destroyed. Yeah. Because it's that John Lewis guy that, yeah. On Twitter and stuff. Is there any other Josh Widdicums? I don't think there are any other Josh Widdicums. If there are, I mean, have you given a name that you regret because it's become a famous name? Imagine calling your kid Siri in like mid-Nauty's. But Alexa, these graphs rob, the names popularity has fallen off a cliff since the arrival of the election. Is it like COVID, just down, just drop it, drop it. If. If. If. If. If. If. If. I. I. I. the, the, the, the, the, if their. If their. If their. If their. If their. If their, if their, if their, if there are there are there are there are there are there are there are there are there are there are there are there are there are there are there are, if there are, if there are, if there are, if there are, if there. If there. If there. If there. If there. If there. If there. If there, if there. If there. If there, if there, if there, if there, if there, if there, if there, if their. If their. If, if their, if their, if their, if their, if their, their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their. I are. If the arrival of the election. Is it like COVID during lockdown in like May? Just down, just drop it, drop it, drop it. Oh I thought you meant the name COVID which is really... I mean Corona, I still can't believe there's a beard called Corona. No, but you know you can't old publicity, he's good publicity. Here's the graphs Rob. Oh wow it's, oh my god, it's like Wall Street in like 1908 or whatever it was. the the the the the th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th, th, th, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, the the the the th. Oh, the the the th. Oh, oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh wow, it's like Wall Street in like 1908 or whatever it was. You know when they...

Yeah, you don't want to have invested in the name Alexa in 2015. No, it's gone, in it. Yeah, because it's very steady before then. Yeah, it was an absolutely, it was a steady number, it was 292, 314, 332, 301, and then it falls through the floor. Oh, like Leeds, in it, after Peter Ridstale. You know, they're flying high and they just gone off the face of the out. They couldn't maintain it. It may have make a comeback once the little Alexa stops, but. Well, one day that technology will be out of date. It feels like the person that the person that invented Alexa, ruin their life in an ultimate. Yeah, do you think it was Alex Turner? He's, what an oblique reference that is. Yeah, well he used, well Alex Turner, yeah, right,

I used to go out of Alexa Chung. Yeah. I don't think he invented the machine. I don't know how stressful the breakup. the treat see what happens but it could have been the reason but yeah wow any any name and we're always looking for graphs terrible with terrible middle names and also anyone who is named after someone famous and how it's impacted their life exactly because it does you know actually being called like yeah I mean

that that's why why did I go there first that's That's one of the worst, worst options you could have chosen. Sorry. What we'll do, it's quite fun actually, if we've bleeped that name out because the reaction to it is so good. And there's no way as the listener that you would get which name he went for. Because it's so off-brand and it...

You can... There's your guess. Guess who it wrong? Don't email it and guess, but do feel free to tweet. We've got a Twitter account and we tweet us with... No, because we can't have those tweets and all get reported. If we've had some sort of true crime podcast now. Exactly. Exactly. But yeah episodes anyway. Exactly. But yeah, like you say, and having some...

But what I would say about that name that you've just named is it's such a normal name. Yeah, it could happen. Nooge of people are going to have that name. Well, yeah, there's a Rob Beckett who's an artist. Is that? Yeah, that's definitely. Yeah. Oh, it's funny. Right. That was genuinely my favorite moments we've had. I think listening to that will be both hilarious and very frustrating. Well, can I just mention this?

My friend runs a business of sending out like, it's a now file business, but he does all like sort of different things for feet. It's quite weird, sort of creams and stuff that medical almost like an online pharmacy type thing he went I've got an order today from someone clearly trying to avoid being asked about his name and he's called Robert and he said he wrote he had to ring him up about the order and I went hi is this Robbecket and he said no Robert and he said in a tone that ss he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he was he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he was he he was he he was he he was he he was he he was he he was he he was he was he was he was he was he was he was he was he was he was he was he was he he was he he was he he was he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he was he was he was he was he was he was he was he was he was he was he was he was he was he was he was he was he he and he said in a tone that sent shivers down his spine. He would Robbecke, he went no Robert, very key not to be associated with my brand. No you don't that's that's ruined his life. He did order a brace.

I don't want to take us back to the problem that was caused last week by the lack of bleeping. But my friend was working for a state agency and she had to ring someone and she was called Mrs. C-U-N-T, I'll spell it out. That's what the word on the, on the, so it said Mrs C-U-N-T. Mrs. C-U-N-T. And she had to ring her up. And they went, Mrs, Mrs, Mrs, Mrs, Mrs, Mrs, Mrs, Mrs, Mrs, Mrs, Mrs, Mrs, so, so, so, so, so, so it, so it, so, so it, so it, so it, so it, so it, so it, so it, so it, so it, so it, so it, so it, so it, so it, so it, so-in-in-in-in-in-s, so-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so-s, so, so-s, so-s, so-s, so-s, so-s, so-s, th, th, th, th, I I I I th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, to ring her up. I don't know what trunk was it? And she went, um, and she went, um, is that Mrs Cuente? Ah! Yes, cuente! And the woman went, it's co-p-dea.

No! No way, really? Yeah, apparently. That can't be true. Apparently so. That can't be someone's name. Well there we go. Obviously we'll have to bleep what the woman said, but the woman said what you would expect her to say. Yes, okay. Wow. So there you go. In the end, Rob, in about two weeks, our show's just going to be bleeps of product names their names their names their names their names. their names. their names. their names. their names. the end, Rob, in about two weeks, our show's just going to be bleeps of product names and swear words and names of awful awful people that we don't even want to say what his crime was. We need to get back on truck. I think it's because our kids are in school that for them. We've gone down a really weird rabbit hole.

Yeah, talk of a rabbit hole. to be talking on Tuesday about going to a farm so you'll enjoy that. Okay, so this is from Alex Rawson. So this is called School Journey from Hell. Okay, so here is my submission as I believe I may be a contender for the longest journey to school and if not the longest, then perhaps it will top the charts in regard the volume of transportation types used. Admittedly, this was a journey I would do myself and my parents weren't having to tag along, but regardless, it was a mission. A mission is such a good term. It doesn't get your absolute mission.

I should profess this by saying I grew up in Hong Kong during my school years and lived on a boat in a marina, as one does. My expedition... He sounds like a high-level prostitute. My expedition to school comprised of two boats, two bus rides, and would take approximately one and a half hours to complete. The adventure would commence daily at 6.30 when I would work up a sweat attempting to pull start a small dinghy in order to whizzy

away. I thought he meant ferry. How old is he? in order to whizzle the car and fly around. How old is he? I don't know how old he is. I mean, in my head he's four. I'm in six a.m. this little four-year-old is post-tired of dinghy. I'm hooked. On said journey, I would be hoping and praying that I would get I wouldn't get hit by multitude of flying fish that we disturbed

some days it felt like a scene from life of pie whilst my siblings would use their school bags of tennis records at the front of the boat how many of them are there attempt to ban away from me and that the helm of the vessel the helm of the vessel the helm of the vessel. The helm of the vessel! So this four-year-old's got his three siblings. We don't know how old he's but we're going to go from. This is pretend he's four. He's got the two-year-old. He's got to drop the two-year-old of a preschool.

So the two siblings at the front of the boat, using their bags as tennis to to to to to to their their to hit the flying fish while he helms the vessel at the back. We would then jump on a small minibus down to the plaza where we'd catch our second boat of the day, a 30-minute ferry over to the main island. Oh my God. This ferry was a blessing in disguise. It would inevitably be full of kids. It would inevitably be full of kids. Upon arrival into the city, a ferry full of kids, but then fire on to the school buses to snake their way up a mountain to arrive at the school around 8 a.m. Where's where my band didn't come from? Oh my look. They're put, arrive at school at 8 a.m. Which looking back now seems an excessively early start. Oh the dingy. Oh the dingy thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing.

I don't know what the weather's like out in Hong Kong. In Hong Kong, I gotta, I'll find out, how cold does it get in winter? This is the question we've all been asking. It's pleasant and mild winter, oh, on a dinghy. Like in a mild winter's morning. Oh yeah, quick dinghy, quick minibus, another ferry, then coach up a mountain. Lovely. I presume reverse the other way. And that is one of my favorite emails we've ever had. If you want to get in touch with names, journeys or anything related to what we've discussed,
