Hello I'm Roch. to parent in hell the show in which Josh and I discuss what it's really like to be a parent, which I would say can be a little tricky. So, to make ourselves and hopefully you feel better about the trials and tribulations of modern-day parenting, each week we'll be chatting to a famous parent about how they're coping. Or hopefully not. And we'll also be hearing from the listeners with your tips, advice and of course, tales of parenting woe. Because let's be honest, there are plenty of times when none of us know what we're doing. Hello, you are listening to Parenting Hell with...
Starting point is 00:01:21 No more Beckett. I don't swigil' him. Who are they? I'm the parent in hell with. Yeah, he loves Josh Brilicum. He doesn't like me, that's fine. You know, some people like you, some people don't. What are you going to do? Who was that? I think the country's made the mind up about both of us, Rob. Hi, guys, congratulations on your baby son, Josh. This this is a podcast, Josh.

Do you know what he's not old enough to buy tickets yet anyway Rob so it doesn't really matter yeah yeah exactly once he starts getting a disposable I'm 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 to the to the to to the the to to the to to to the the their I'm to the the to to to to to to to to to they.

Josh, I can't, my, how we sound horrific. I'm so hungover.
Starting point is 00:02:30 Everyone in the country's got a weird voice. Oh are you? Yeah. Okay, so we've got a lot to talk about it. Let's give everyone a rundown. Basically, we've rebranded. It's now parenting hell. It's not lockdown anymore, freedom days coming, but you probably still have to wear a mask or whatever, but let's not get bogged down by it, the ins and outs of it. It's not our area to discuss that kind of thing Rob anymore. We don't do lockdown stuff. We're not the lockdown guys. We just do parenting badly. That's what we do. Exactly. And yeah. So that's done. We've got a the probably probably you know a funky new look
Starting point is 00:03:05 or post that we got a funky new look Michael no I think we just took the lockdown oh yeah we've not got a fungne new look I know exactly the same look but the title change yeah but that's that's happened and we're gonna talk about the euros for a five minutes and then we'll get into how the parenting has been going if you don't hear about the parenting has been going. If you don't want to hear about the Euros. I think they kind of intersect in my life. Oh, we should say if anyone is watching the Euro Final on catch up, let's just skip this bit. Oh, don't do it, guys.
Starting point is 00:03:34 Don't do it. Don't do it. Don't do it. My body. I feel like, if anyone, I've gone to a lot of the games, if I don't know if people only listen to podcasts and don't follow me in Josh on social media, we both went to the Germany game and then I went to Denmark and the final,
Starting point is 00:03:51 and my body, I feel like I've done a summary magaloof. My body's broken. Mate, Rose said to me back to normal life now. I've had pizza for the last four main meals. Lunch, dinner, lunch dinner, pizza every time. That is not acceptable. I've been pissed every two or three days. Yeah. Like, stag do pissed.
Starting point is 00:04:20 Because the problem is, like last night is a prime example. The nerves made me drink fast. Yes, 100%. That's my biggest problem is nervous fast drinking. Yeah, because I wouldn't, if I drunk likeke, I'm not Oliver Reed. I turned up... I feel like I've lived in another dimension, right? I went on the Peter Crouch show after the final that we lost and everyone was depressed.
Starting point is 00:04:55 Did you know one of the guests were? My Uber driver from three weeks ago. No way! They got him ran on. Oh wow. But he never went, and then they started asking him what was his favorite goal of the tournament? I love him ran to pieces but you don't want him as a pundit after the Euro final just because he drove me own pissed ones.
Starting point is 00:05:14 But I was in the pub. I woke up this morning to find that I just sent out an Instagram of a picture of me in the pub pointing a TV with you on. Sent out an Instagram. the the the th. th. th. th. th. I. I. I. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I'm th. I thi. I'm th. I'm th. I th.

I'm the. I'm the. I'm theeeeeeeeat theat to thea. thea. thea. I'm thea. I thea. I the. I out an Instagram. Sent out an Instagram. Telegram from the Queen. Well, I feel all right today. I just, I'm like what Rose said, me and Lou were doing really well with healthy eating, I wasn't eating carbs. I wasn't drinking. I literally hadn't drunk for three months properly.
Starting point is 00:05:39 And now, but now we are, we're doing like nilprepping, we're doing planning. My kids, the way my kids look at me, I feel like, you know, like a drunk in a, in Emmerdale. And then the kids are going, oh dad, I'll walk myself to school, then shall I, and I'm just like rolling about in my own field. It's horrible. Oh man. So I took my daughter to nursery this morning. Yes, so you are really struggling, Josh, I can sense. I'm in a bad way. And my brother who was staying because the game, is that allowed?
Starting point is 00:06:12 Oh God, I don't even know anymore. He was camped in the garden, right? But... What is allowed? I mean, I've never been so close. Wemberley, I mean, if I haven't got COVID, it don't exist. But I'm doing my tests and it's not... I must be fucking riddled.
Starting point is 00:06:31 So, my brother, because my brother doesn't drink, he drove, I'd normally drive my daughter to nursery this morning, but I couldn't drive because I was just obviously over the limit. So he drove me and my daughter to nursery. I'm, I'm, I, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th my, I'm th my th my thi thi. I'm thi. I'm just just just just th my the my the my te my the the my te my te my te my te my te my te my te my te my te my te my te my te my te my te, I'm te my te, I'm doing my te my te, I'm doing my te, I'm doing my te my te, I'm doing the, I'm doing the. I'm doing the. I'm doing the. I'm doing the. I'm doing the. I'm doing the. I'm doing tea. I'm doing tea. I'm doing tea. I'm doing tea. I'm doing tea. I'm doing my tea te. I'm doing my te. I couldn't drive because I was just obviously over the limit. So he drove me and my daughter to nursery and then I came back and now I'm gonna send you a picture right? Okay so this is what I came back to because my brother lives in Wales right so he was driving back to Wales today? Yeah yeah so he left already he's left this morning yeah oh god oh he doesn't drink though, so he's alright, yeah, okay. Like that.
Starting point is 00:07:07 Is that allowed? What is allowed? What is it? I don't, I literally don't know now. Like what is it? When you've seen a man shove a flare up his ass. Oh my god. What are the rules? How is Lloyd Griffith? He was so sad. Poor bloke was so sad. We were all sad. Oh God. So that picture I've shown you. Yeah. That is Tom Parry.
Starting point is 00:07:32 Yeah. Parry parenting hell legend. He looks really sad. Yeah. That is the moment that my wife this morning because he was getting a lift back with my brother. Because Pary lives in Exeter. He was getting a lift down the unfore my brother. So he came to our house to get the lift. That is the moment that my wife explained to him that he was caught pissing in our garden last night. Oh my God, it looks so sad. Also there's a bit of toast been eaten on that table in such a weird way. Oh, that's my daughter doesn't eat the crusts.
Starting point is 00:08:07 Oh, right, okay, that makes sense. It looks like it's that bloke, because that's your brother. I don't know, who's doing a scratch card? Is he doing a scratch card? He's doing it. He's doing one of the table. They're inside. Is that allowed? Who knows? I should ask Rob. Yeah. How has it felt to be suddenly catapulted to being the face of English football fans? Obviously in the last 24 hours you don't want to
Starting point is 00:08:39 represent English football fans obviously and you don't stand for any kind of that kind let's be very clear on that. Well, that's what I found I the the th. th. th. the th. the th. th. th. the th. th. the the th. the th. the th. the the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I. I. I th. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the th. th. th. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. very clear on that. Well, that's what I found disappointed because up until it was like, you know, last night at the game, it was like horrific because people just went to Wembley about a ticket. So, did you see any of that stuff? Yeah, so basically people were breaking through the barriers to the barriers to show you your test and your test result and then that validates your ticket. And then once you get through there you go through the turnstiles of your ticket. So what was happening was it was so busy they were just letting people through but without validating their tests. They were trying to get in but then couldn't get in at the turnstall. So some people being turned away to geese as their their's phones with my power bank trying to get it. So it was, it was a carnagy but it was, I think, because it was Sunday night and people have been drinking
Starting point is 00:09:33 for like weeks essentially. It just all went to a crescento and as Louvre said it wasn't the right side of Ladd. to the right side of Ladd. to th and their th Lu, th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, to thu, thu, thu-I, thu-I thui, so thui, so thui, so thu-I, so thu, so thu, so thu, so, so, so thu, so gu, so gizizizze, so, so gizze, so, so gizze, so gizz, so gizu, so gizu, so gizu, so thu, so thu, so thu thu, so thu-I, so thu-I, so thu-I thu-I thu-I thu-a, thu-a'a'a'-gua, thua'a'a'-guasea, thua, thua, thuase thuase thu have.

Well yeah I'm a meme now Josh basically and I've basically I wore that little bucket out and stuff to go to the football in good faith against Germany and now when I put it on I feel like Mrs. Brown pulling her stockings up. Fucking character act. People that didn't stop me. they.? You're the drunk man from the internet? How the fuck? How's that my legacy? Oh wow. What have I become on the drug book?

Starting point is 00:10:31 telly, but when you do something like that, it was the day after that Germany, when that first story went out, it was just ridiculous. I couldn't walk that the street.

But what are following on Instagram you'd have Rob?
Starting point is 00:11:10 Oh, mate, yeah, they're flying up. But like, it'll probably all leave me when they realize it was the boring bloke who has children shouting at him all the time. It's so funny that I had to do like I'll do some audio clips and it's all week going home in the stadium looking forward to it, oh no, they've scored and then nothing. So God knows what she played on the show but I couldn't bear to send you another clip. But yeah I'm happy to be the drunk England fan but it was fun. It was an amazing couple of weeks. I couldn't keep it up. I got to see my kids. I do too. I only miss one school run. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm.

I only miss one school run out of all of the all of the euros and I just about that's because it was a late game, the Denmark game, they went to extra time and I didn't get into like three in the morning because I couldn't get a cab. It was so busy. So I only missed
Starting point is 00:11:53 one school run. But Lou has really, when you talk about mental load, I'd say if it's out of a hundred. operating at 105% of our mental load. Oh wow. Because I've done, I have not pulled my weight. But this one, I'm back. I'm on it, mate. We're going for it. I'm back in the game, Josh. Rare into parents. That's good.
Starting point is 00:12:14 That's good. Back to school signals a fresh start for students. New classmates, new teachers, new lessons. Change is in the air. But one thing hasn't changed. The Ford government still isn't investing in public schools. Six years of cuts mean our students aren't getting the supports they need. They can't wait another year. If the Ford government won't change, it's time to change the government. Our kids are counting on us.
Starting point is 00:12:41 Join us at building better schools. A message from the Elementary Teachers Federation of Ontario. If I could give you a parenting tip Rob. Yeah. As the Qatar World Cup approaches next year. Yeah. Do not have a baby the month before the Qatar World Cup. Yeah, so I've, it's been, lose had to do a bit more of the, well to be it's not too fair in my defence. I have been that going out getting drunk for the games, so there's been a few, I've had a few nights out, but then I'm on it in between the games. So I've not, and it's easier because ours are five and three, but how's it been with you and Rose balancing and for the Germany game. Do you know what the England game...

You fainted and hit you in. Oh my god, I fainted, yeah. And you texted me saying, look, thank you for being so hung over. Your Instagram story absolutely saved me because I was in the dog. I went to the toilet at 5 a.m. right? And I've never done this before. I started having a piss.

Also, we stopped doing this for a rest.
Starting point is 00:15:14 Oh, mate, and I feel so much worse. I feel so much worse. Yeah, so I was lying on the floor. Yeah, and then Rose was I was like, I might just go to sleep here. I was like, you can't just go to sleep on the floor. But I, like, I was sweating because my body had gone into shock or something. I don't know what happened. And then I, I got back into bed and I couldn't get back to sleep because I was like, oh my god, that was so mad.

Yeah, I mean like the end part of a pandemic, fingers crossed. And it's like, whenever I say stuff like that,
Starting point is 00:15:54 I really worry when someone listens to this in three years time and yeah. What they didn't know was how good was going to happen. Straight the bloody R rate. And yeah, but I think it comes around now and again and we've just let our hair down, we've had a busy, horrible couple of years and we just had fun. And now we're being healthy and going to be professional, Josh, aren't we? Totally. So let me tell you how difficult it is to have a child during the Euros. Okay. It's the evening games that the problem Rob. Because he wouldn't sleep in the evening games. I love five o'clock games were my favorite.
Starting point is 00:16:32 Yeah, five o'clock games were fine for me. I love the two o'clock's mate. I wish they hadn't dropped them. They should have kept the bloody two o'clock. The group stage was fine once we got to the quarters that's when I was in trouble right these 8 p.m. games where I was in a dark room rocking a baby who wouldn't go to sleep and was screaming and these people that say I just listened to podcast and stuff I couldn't listen to a podcast because my baby was screaming so instead I'm walking up and down a dark room he's's got reflux, right? Oh no.
Starting point is 00:17:05 Oh no, yeah. And he's screaming, and I'm trying to follow the 8pm games. Do you remember that night of the France group ending? That amazing France group ending? Oh yeah, with Germany and Portugal and yeah. So I'm watching it on my phone, right? And the problem is, your phone is, because it's going through eye player, it's slower than people's TVs, right?
Starting point is 00:17:27 So you're behind. And obviously, the thing you're watching on is the thing that people are messaging you on. So everyone is messaging about every, you can't watch it on a phone where you're getting messages about what's happening ahead of ti. Oh, yeah, it, it, the, the, the, the, the, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, tho, tho, tho, tho, thi, thi, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, th. th. th. th. th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, the. thean, thean, thean, thean, thean, thean, thean, thean, thean, thean, thean,. It's the worst piece of kit because you're looking at the screen and then it's coming up with like oh my god I can't believe that or whatever. Yeah the only thing worse than that is if you've
Starting point is 00:17:51 got like French or German neighbors that cheer. Yeah yeah because we've got some Belgians down our road. The only only thing was just the only anything worse that is if you've got frowned the the only thing so so so so so so so so so so so so so so we so we so we so we so we so we so we so we so we so we so we so we so we so we so we so we the the the the the the the the the only the the only the the only the the the the the the only the the the only the only thing so we've the the the the the only the only the only the only the only the only the only the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th.

I've the. I th. I've th. I of takeaways, Rob, for obvious reasons. Oh mate, I've put on it, I think I've put a stone on. Oh mate. And my England shirt looked much better in the group stages. Can't do my jacket, that wolf the first game, could do up, can't do it up now. That is mental, it's been two weeks. Fuck's sake. So, I got home, I, at one day, and Rose's friends, Susanna and James were here and they had all been for
Starting point is 00:18:28 lunch and it was like 5 p.m. so Rose was like, oh we're going to have to do this, go and get my daughter and then do bedtime. Susanna and James had a couple of drinks over lunch. They were like, oh we might just go for a drink in the area aroundthe area around here so then I forget about this and about 7 p.m. 830 maybe 7 what a fuck is going on in my mind 7 or 8 p.m. 7 or 8 p.m. yeah cool I think I'm gonna go out and pick up a take tauw from the local Turkish restaurant. Josh you're about to die you're all I'm just so it's just been so, it's just been tough, it's really been tough. I'm just remembering this. I'd been in the bedroom in the dark being screamed out for an hour.
Starting point is 00:19:11 Yep. And also the baby was there. But um, that's why people are tuning into this podcast that kind of gear. It'll throw away stuff. Is it? What once every three weeks? Yeah, but it's always good. It's always good gear I walked out of the the house and it was like You don't even know where you are in this anecdote. No, sorry, so I'm going to get this takeaway I'm getting a dark room being screened up. Yeah, and I walk out of the house and it's still sunny and I walked past the local Italian and Susanna and James are on a table outside sharing a bottle of rosé and I just looked at them with so much hate I've never like and I they didn't even spot me they were just having a lovely time and I just walked past, got the takeaway and then walked back into the dark room to return
Starting point is 00:20:05 to being screamed at. And it was, I was like, what is my life? It was just, the Euros was just, every night was just being screamed at by a baby. It was, and do you know what, the England games were fine? Because, uh, and I should thank Night Nannies Essex because we got Night Nannies for the England Games, Rob. Oh, what do they do Nightnannies? Are they there all nine?
Starting point is 00:20:31 So, so turn up at 8pm. Yeah. And they look after you're in the house with them. Yeah, you're in the house and they'll bring them to you if they need feeding or whatever. Oh, okay. Oh, that's good. So it was 8 p.m.
Starting point is 00:20:53 8 p.m. 8 p. 8 a.m. . Oh, okay, I. the. 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. I....... I............................................................................................................................................................................................................. go, we're not, for the England games. Yes, because otherwise you're not, you're not, no one's enjoying it then, you're both worried. Yeah, at least you go, there's someone in charge of the baby, let's just sit and watch the game. Oh my god, it was amazing. It was pure freedom, Rob. So they were fine, they were fine. their tied. A their th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the th. th. the their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their.

How's your tie... Apart from being a bit tired from the Euros, you get him much sleep, or is he waking up a lot?
Starting point is 00:21:29 He's waking up every hour and a half, two hours? Oh, God. Yeah, it's pretty brutal. I tell you what, we normally save this for the Friday episode, but I've got to, this might make you feel better about tiredness. You know, because you're so tired, I think someone said, on being more tired than Josh. We're trying to find people that are more tired than you, aren't we? Here we go. So when my now two and a half year old was only a few weeks old,
Starting point is 00:21:52 I had to go to the dentist for a fioling I was dreading it, I got there laying the chair and immediately fell asleep and slept for nearly the entirety of the appointment. Absolutely amazing. So the baby was asleep in the brand. That is astonishing. The woman, the woman who's emailed in, fell asleep completely, the whole procedure. At the dentist. Once it had finished, the dentist let us sleep in the
Starting point is 00:22:25 chair for another hour what be sleeping next to her because she did have an appointment so she just left her in the chair the dentist was very nice and she said she didn't want to wait me at the end and she figured I must be tired because I'd slept through the drilling bit. That is a star. Poor Laura, sleeping through a filling. Oh man, alive. That is amazing. Magic, oh God. That is just amazing. Sleeping through a feeling, well done, Josh. Yeah. I mean, why don't you go and get a filling?
Starting point is 00:23:03 I'm tempted,, I'm tempted. Oh man. We should, I went to the doctor's the other day Josh. Oh yeah, I had to have a finger up my ass. What? My first ever medical finger. Have you had a medical finger up the bum? Um, no.
Starting point is 00:23:17 No. I don't know why I needed to pause on that. You'd think you'd remember. All's fine but I had to double check something. And it's quite the experience Josh, but it's got to be done. I'm too young for a prostate but the geese, I went in there, Asian doctor, so I had to speak about Romish for half an hour just before and always happens. If you thought Romish was popular, you meet an Asian guy, especially Sri Lankan. He's like God. Oh my God, can you imagine what Sri Lankan people think of Ramesh? Oh my god, they love him right? But obviously I'm in there and he doesn't really know he's got to do this yet
Starting point is 00:23:53 because you put all your stuff into like an email. He looks on the screen, he looks on the screen, he looks at the screen, he looks at the screen. to see, to see, to see, to see, what, to see, what, what, what, to see, what, what, what, th. th. th. th. th. th. thin, th. thin, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, he, he's, he's, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what. Oh, what. Oh, what. Oh, what. Oh, what. Oh, what. Oh, what. Oh, what. Oh, what. Oh, I. Oh, I. Oh, I. Oh, oh, oh, oh, I. Oh, I. Oh, so. Oh, so. Oh, so. Oh, so. Oh, th. Oh, so. Oh, th. Oh, to. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, the. Oh, the. Oh, the. Oh great, isn't it, when you went and saw you saying, Bolt, blah, blah, yeah. And he looked at the screen and went, okay, the gear shift from Bantor of Romesh, said the finger up the bum, was the, I've never seen, and I'm sitting there waiting for the gear shift, thinking, how is he going to deal with this? Because he's got to go to say, anyway, while I I thought, wow, you're up there. You're not nipping to the fucking shots, mate. Anyway, it was all right, but just a bit of a bite. I thought it would be- Which finger does he use? I didn't see.
Starting point is 00:24:33 I was, I was just turned away. I was turned away like it. You know, like, when a rescue dog, when it first arrives at Battersea. I was curled up on the bed like that. And I thought it would be shallow and slow, but it's deep and quick Josh. Is it? You spinge around like a Harlem Globe trot with a basketball. I found a bit like it. But I only checked the prostate, but yeah, so it was actually all right in the end it. It wasn't too bad. I was really dreading it because it's quite scaring it. So if you are, if anyone anyone anyone anyone anyone get a little finger up your ass, expect to be on the safe side. So that's my... It's better to be on the safe side. I get the finger up the ass guys.
Starting point is 00:25:14 That's what we need to talk about as well, Josh. When you come around for my kids' little garden party, because they couldn't have birthday. their. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. to to to to to be to be. to be. to be to be. to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be their. their. their their their their their their their their their their their their toda. their their their today. to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to have birthday parties in the winter. They had a little garden party. Your daughter had quite a monumental moment, didn't she? What did she, what did she eat? Her first ever? She ate her first ever happy meal, Rob. She'd never have a happy meal until she came to Beckett towers. There we go. There's only one reason to visit really,
Starting point is 00:25:38 isn't it? Did you like it? She did enjoy it Rob. She did enjoy it, didn't she? But that was the first one. I felt bad when I don't like to be the first one. Do you know what I mean? No, don't worry about that. You suddenly realize when all the children together, how much they preferred their friends to you. Oh yeah, but that's good though, isn't it, in their eyes because we're not up for pretending to be Elsa really if we're honest with ourselves. No, I mean I'll sing but I won't put the dress on. I'm excited.
Starting point is 00:26:09 Do you know what I mean? I didn't realize when you go to parties all the kids kind of look after themselves because they all just interested in each other. I didn't know this. But going forward Josh when they go to school the way we did their party, we did a party for the girls, the parents dropped the kid off and you say drop them up from two till five, they drop them off at two and then you come back at five and then you've got three house to yourself. Oh my word. Very interesting drop-offs. Some people were like, oh, can I interesting. How did it feel to have
Starting point is 00:26:46 that kind of responsibility? At one point I was like if we lost one I wouldn't know. Because it's like there's so many of them and they're so busy and there was just everywhere that is like oh God and then but I was I just kept on counting them all the time just to make sure but there's no one for it to go in our house. We've sort sort just just just just just just just just just just just just so so so so so so 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 the the the the the their th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. to to to to to to th. I to to th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. th. th. th. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. th. th. th. th. the. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. th. th. th. I. I. them all the time. Yeah, just to make sure. But there's done for them to go in our house. We've sort of got all gates up and stuff down the side so they can't even get down like the alley of the house type of thing. So you know that they were all there but they're all there all the same but it was interesting seeing them all like. Was there any child that the same, it's like, they're all the same class, we just basically had her class come. So they're all the same, like age and they all know each other, so it's quite easy. A bit of my youngest, it's hard for the youngest though, because she was sort of trying to be palli
Starting point is 00:27:31 of them all, but she was like a couple years younger. So it's hard, so it's hard, so I felt, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, I, so, so, I, I felt, I felt, so, so, I felt, I felt, I felt, I felt, I felt, I felt, so, like, I felt, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, I. to. to. to. to. they. they. they's, I. to. they. now officially in all new what's that group called year one dads oh my how is it all the school dads I mean so it's just the dads there's one for the moms there's one for the dads I don't know I'm not I'm taking a very stepback approach to admin with my kid's school and I just sort of know that I won't do anything and at some point I'll be bullied into doing a gig and that's fine by me. Yeah, but not now. So basically people are up for a drink we're going to the pub. You're going to the pub. They're going to go organizing a pub. Are you going to go Rob. Pop catch up? Yeah but my problem is I've really got a it's hard to judge what level of Rob Beckett you give him. Basically, don't wear the bucket hat, Rob. Don't wear the bucket hat.
Starting point is 00:28:29 I wear one. What do you get when you graduate? I wear that hat. A mortarboard? Mortarboard. I wear a mortarboard. I'm going, I'll let you know how that goes. Oh, I need to have a little vent. Because you know what I'm saying, it's a bit easier with my kids being old, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, to, th, 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 the the the the the the the the the the the same, the same, the same, the same, the same, the same, the same, the same, the same, the same, the the the the I need to talk, I need to have a little vent. Because you know what I'm saying, it's a bit easier with my kids being old now. Bedtime has turned into a fucking war zone, isn't it? Oh no.
Starting point is 00:28:50 Absolute nightmare. So two things are happening, right? One, they're just not going to sleep, right. So we've tried, they' all, they's, they's, 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 be. to. to. too. too. too. too. too. too. their. their. their. their. their. their. too. too. too. to be. to be. to be. to be. to be. to be. to be. to be. to be. to be. to be. to be. to be. to be. to be. to be. the. the. to. to. to. to. to. toooooooooooooooooooooooooo. toooooooooooooooo. toooo. too. t some reason the three-year-olds got really clingy. So now whenever we leave the house if I'm like alright I'm off to work now normally they'd give me a kiss or whatever and then they'd go oh can we shut the door and they open the door and shut the door. Now the the older one don't care really the three-year-old is crying and just crying. You knowto the point sometimes where she just like scream like mad screaming. You know like the first day you sort of drop him at a preschool and they go mental and you just have to walk away from him.
Starting point is 00:29:31 It's like that but I'm leaving her at home. She's at home with like a mom and sister but just goes absolutely ape she. Oh my gosh. The other day I had to jump in a cab as I was like 50 meters down the road with the cab window open. Oh my word. I was like what and I don't and I and then saying what's going on there then I don't know I don't know but because obviously I've been at home and me and Loo have both been at home near enough non-stop like everyone for last 18 months and she when we first went into lockdown she's only just to then she's going to preschool like three times a week but she goes into preschool fine but this weird thing now if like one of us goes off she just goes into full
Starting point is 00:30:08 meltdown but I don't know if it's temper or being or being a bit naughty or she's just three but she was so chilled and she will go and stay at her grandparents stuff like that but I just don't know what to do because and you're just not like we're leaving with someone she doesn't know, just literally leaving her of our mom or she does it to both of us and then but yeah bedtime's falling apart. Oh no it's just not happening and they're just so I think we're doing too much with them because we're packing the days for and I think they get a bit too wound up and they can't sort of de-escalate because we're constantly our house is so busy and we both got big families and they do a lot of classes, you know, like there's a ballet camp and gymnastics camp and football and they go swimming and it's quite,
Starting point is 00:30:50 they've got quite busy weeks and then they've been going away. They went to like, his zoo, like, Portland on Saturday with Lou and her parents and stuff. So I think they're doing a little bit too much and they're all a little bit amped up and I think, their, they're their, their, their, their, their, their, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, tho, tho, th, th, tho, tho, tho, th, th, tho, tho, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, tho, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, and, th, and, and, and, and, thi, and, thi, and, and, thou, thin, and, thou, tha, tha, tha, thou, tha, tooooooo, tha, tha, tha, their, their, their, tha, th little bit too much and they're all a little bit amped up and I think they need a bit of quiet time of doing nothing. Do you know? That's what I think but I don't know. But I don't know why she's going so mad. That proper like distraught screaming as if like, like, yeah, but then you worried about like going back out on tour and all that kind of stuff. Like it feels weird when I go away and work. Yeah, yeah, I think so a little bit but I'm I'm sort of trying to not work too much because
Starting point is 00:31:32 I think I was working too much and it wasn't wasn't good from like the family of me being away that much. But when you're in the middle of it you can't see the wood for the trees. Like before I'll do whatever anyone said for work. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. th. tho. tho. tho. th. th. thi. tho. tho.

I'm like, okay, absolutely, and I didn't want to rock the boat because I was so worried that if I did I wouldn't get re-booked or I'd get as a freelancer you don't want to be difficult, because then they just get someone else. Yeah, of course. But now I've been more like, yep, I can't they. they. to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to their to rock, I 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 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 the the the their. their. their. the the the the the the th. tho. thooooooooooo. thoooooooooooo. took. took. thoo. thooo. tho. the boat. the boat. their. the Monday, do all like the, say for example I did a pilot for a TV thing and they, you know, they want you up there for like two or three nights but I said I can't do that but I can come up on the Monday afternoon so I've seen the kids in the morning and stuff and got them off to school, do the rehearsal night, then on the day, then stay over one night, on the next, the show, and the show, the show, the show, the show, the show, 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 can't, I can't, I can't, I can't, I can, I can, I can, I can, I can, I can, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I..., I'm, I.

And, the, the, the, I can't, I can't, I'm, I'm that night so I'm not good and getting in late but at least I'll get to I'll only put am only away one night so I think I'm just trying to try to do that more rather and just be sort of put family before work. I totally agree like you feel this kind of situation where you're like you feel like you don't want to be away don't you? But obviously in the current situation Rob. I also feel a huge guilt if I'm working the
Starting point is 00:32:45 evening and roses in the dark room with the screaming child. Yeah, yeah, the point. I did, I did celebrity tipping point, Rob. Oh yeah. Oh yeah, I can't tell you how it went, Rob. Obviously that's a... I did Stephen Mulhern's rolling in it. Oh yeah, that's coming out. I did the chase rolling roll roll rolling rolling rolling rolling rolling rolling rolling rolling rolling rolling rolling rolling rolling rolling rolling rolling rolling rolling rolling rolling rolling rolling rolling rolling rolling rolling roll roll roll roll roll roll roll roll roll roll roll roll roll roll roll roll roll roll. I the chase. I the ch cha. I the cha. I 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 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 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 the tha. thro thro throooooooooooo throooooooooo thoooooooom. the the the the the the the the the that went. Oh my God, this is like a weird ITB, big dick quiz competition off. Yeah, I do some work as well. I did the chase. Have you done the chase? I've not done the chase, Rob. Yes, I've done the chase. Beat the cinema and he's
Starting point is 00:33:12 still annoyed about it. Did you beat the cinema? and then you can come in the morning, booked that all up. And then like two days before I was like, I just can't leave Rose to do this in on our own in the evening with the bad sleep as well. Yeah. And so I took the alternative option Rob. The alternative option was the 6 a.m. train from Paddington. Oh my God. And I'm not going to lie to you. There we go. It was brutal.
Starting point is 00:33:54 Here's my take on this, right? I totally agree, because you don't want to be there during the night and help. What am I achieving, apart from when you get back from train, the train, the theam, the theam, theam, the theam, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, from, train, the tha, train, train, tha, tha, train, train, train, train, train, train, train, train, train, train, train, train, train, train, train, train, train, train, train, train, train, train, train, the the the the the the the the train, the the the train, train, train, thea, thea, thea, thea, thea, thea, thea, thea, thea, thea, train, train, train, train, to like, you know, you want to be there during the night and help. But what am I achieving, Rob? What are you achieving apart from when you get back from tipping point, well, it is your tipping point, you're both going to be exhausted. So my argument would be, if you go that night before and have the hotel and then you're up and fresh and do the tip, you've had a good night home, you're going to become home refreshed and ready to parent. And then you could even say to what me and Lou do, because I do go away with work a lot. I'll say to her like on Saturday she did it, and I had the kids was you go out of friend and stay in a hotel. Even though it's not for work, but have a bit of you time and in that way it's even then. So you get that you can enjoy that that time that time that time that time that time that time that time that time that time that time that time you can enjoy that time rather than feeling guilty at our hotel in Bristol for work and she can, and then Rose can do it at another point. But I don't know
Starting point is 00:34:48 if she's still breastfidd and that's a bit difficult. Yeah, I think that would have been the logical way to do it. It was almost like, it was almost like my own inbuilt guilt stopped me doing it. So I ended up, I had to set my alarm. to to to be. I. I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thin, thi, thin, thin, thin, thi, thi, thin, thin, thin, thin, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th.

Yeah, th. th. th th th th thin, thi, thi, thi. thi. thi. thee. the an thi. thean, thean, thi. thi. thi. the an thi. the 5 a.m. Oh my god, to go to Bristol. To go to Bristol. Not like you're flying somewhere. No, no exactly. What time did you get back then? I was back by like 2 p.m. Fucke-feem. What am I'm all in that is.
Starting point is 00:35:14 It was mad. It was mad. that train just going what is more this happened to me once right I got a train to this place I did a preview and I think it was somewhere like Hemel Hempstead or something like that right it took about an hour on the train I got the train right and the train arrived at 10 to 8 I got off the train walked five minutes to a venue my show was at eight o'clock right I did an the th th th th th th th th th th th th the the the the I the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the took the to took took to to that that that that that that took took took took took took took took took took took took took took took took I took I took I took I took I took I took I took I took I took I took took took took took took took took took took took took took took took to the took the tha thae to the to try to to the that thae to the try thae took to took took took took took t stage and then got on the five past nine train home and I was like I was on the train longer than I was at the gig. You know you just sometimes you just sit on a train going how does that say you just imagine you on the train back to Paddington at one o'clock going I've just done television it is so weird you're just like this how I should work all the time get get all the tod I tha I tha I tha I th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. that that that. that. that. that. that. thi. the th. thi. 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 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 th.

I'm just the. I'm just th how I should work all the time? Get all my work done. I'm done by 11 a.m. It was just surreal. That's what I'm struggling with a bit because of lockdown and
Starting point is 00:36:12 you know if you don't work in evenings or work shifts right and you've got kids, you're in bed by 910 aren't you really? It just grinds you down, you're knackered. But now, I'm back on tour. I went out and did a gig the other th. And I.

I went out and did a gig the other night, and I was leaving the house at six, and I went to Lou, I can't do this. True, what, what, you worried about doing gigs? You went, no, I could do the gigs. The shows are going really well. I love doing comedy. I'm good do it. We did a last leg at 11 p.m. the other
Starting point is 00:36:49 the other day because the England Scotland game. But you know what time? Do you know what time Peter Crouch's show started? Oh mate. Five past at 12 and get any energy up after that. I am. I, so when we do last leg, I used to stay and drink, right? Yeah. But now, there's no green room, right? Obviously now for obvious reasons. But there's like, these picnic tables outside the BBC where people hang around. I finished the show. And after about 10 minutes, the energy has so drained from me that I just that I that I that I that I th th th that I the last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the to to to to to last last last last last last last last last to last to last last last last to last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last the last last last last last last last last last to last to last last last last the the the the the the the the show and after about 10 minutes, the energy has so drained from me that I just get in the car.
Starting point is 00:37:30 And this is pathetic, Rob. I put my headphones in, I was like, none of the music that I like, I can't think of any band I like, that is of a low energy enough for me to enjoy it at this point. And I just wrote the words into Spotify, Relaxing Classical. It's horrible. You got, you're so tired, you lose your personality. Yeah. I have to do that all the time. I was like, what
Starting point is 00:38:05 is it that I like? I don't know what I like anymore. Especially with like food and stuff? Could you just go wherever's easy for the kids? When I left to my own devices, I don't know what it is, I do? What is it I do when I'm not a work or looking out of the kid? And then every, no. no. the the the the time, every time time, every time the time, every time, every th. 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 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 to to to the the the the the the their their their their their the the the the the the the th.

I like, I like, I like, I like, I like, I like, I like, I to time I come back from the last leg, I was like half 12 or whatever, and you're going through Shoreditch and I'm literally sat in a car listening to Relaxing Classical and there's the piss heads in the street, Rob. And you're like, you need to move. You need to move. It's too much fun there for you you just want a relaxing classical you need a market town mate I just want to pour myself a long bath have a flake and relax
Starting point is 00:38:56 you want to be you want and of the atterners life I want to be at the tuterna that's who I want to be right rightthe Eterner, that's who I want to be right. Right, we've been blabbling on for ages. Oh sorry, yeah. No, it's all, I'll tell you what, let's do, I've got this one Instagram story, might make you feel better about parenting lows. This is anonymous, don't know why, something too bad. This is a, should anyone else that's struggling at parenting low points. about being tired and just listen to the ep about being tired and the discussion on parenting low points. We have a new baby boy. I was so tired last week, I burst out crying because I convinced
Starting point is 00:39:31 myself my son couldn't understand English. And maybe he spoke a different language to us and we now can't communicate. This is the best bit. he's seven weeks old. Oh dear. Please send in any more apparently points or if anyone's more tired than Josh or the lady that fell asleep during the dentist appointment. When we were a low ab last, not last night before, yeah. Rose googled how long should a seven week old be sleeping for? And it didn't help. What's the answer?
Starting point is 00:40:07 Well the internet said they could do up to six hours in a row. And what you want every one and one and one and one half hours yeah. One half to two hours yeah. That is really bad. Yeah. What when does it change? It can't get much worse than that with them just being awake all the time. Yeah. I don't know know what what what what what what that. That that th. That th. That is. th. th. th. th. th. th. 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 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 the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. tho. tho. tho. tho thoo thoooooooo thooooo thoo thooo tho thoooo thoo thethat with them just being awake all the time. Yeah. I don't know what it changes about. When does it change? I do think is that I think baby sleeping is luck of the drawer. There's certain things you can do to help or make it worse, but some are good sleepers
Starting point is 00:40:36 and some aren't. So don't beat yourself up. I'm not beating myself up. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I to to to to to to th. I just. I just. I just. I just. I just. I just. I just. I just. I just. I just. I just. I just. I just. I just thoing myself. I just thoing myself. I just thi. I just thi. I just thi. I just thi. I just thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I think thi. I think. I think. I think. I think. I think think think think think think thi. I think. I think. I thi. I think thi. I think to change. I just need it to change, Rob. Someone needs to do something about this. Someone, this has got to stop. This is unacceptable. You've got to make a stand. But then my friend, my friend's got a baby, who is four months who sleeps through, but his three-year-old is such a bad sleeper that it makes the good sleeping baby a completely useless.
Starting point is 00:41:10 Oh, yeah, it's a non-star. And his three-year-old the other day started the day at 10 past four. AM. A.M. 10 past, effing four. My mom reckons I woke up at 4 a.m. every day for six years. Oh my god. Yeah. Oh my god. One that was a book, my other brother was six years older me and another one two years younger me and I woke up at four a.m. every day. Oh my god. And now you've got the cheek to do a parenting podcast where you complain
Starting point is 00:41:41 about your own children. She's savage with me though if I ever moaned she goes yep. She loves it. She really enjoys the fact that when mine get up early and says, serves you right, like I had any control over it. Oh dear. Well we've got a small business shout out Josh. Oh I was just going to assault you Rob Beckett. Oh no! God there's going to be so many of them after the euros. Oh well come on Tuesday evening some friends and I were leaving Wembley. Okay all obviously on cloud nine. Okay as we walked around the ground towards the tube station a mate of mine splinted off he had a brief exchange with another fan and walked back over with an expression that was
Starting point is 00:42:17 half smiling half shocked. When I asked you what happened I presume you've got no memory of this Rob. I spoke to a lot of people yeah and also they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they're obviously obviously obviously obviously obviously obviously obviously obviously obviously obviously they're they're they're they're they're obviously obviously obviously obviously obviously obviously obviously obviously they're they they they they they they they they they they're obviously obviously obviously obviously obviously obviously obviously they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're not they're not they're not they're not they're not they're not they're not they're not they're not they're not they're not they're not they're not they're they're not they're they're they're not they're they're they're not they're not they're not I spoke to a loss of people at the football, and also, they are, England fans are very drunk and loud. So I was in, I was in, I was in aggression mode, I imagine. When asking what happened, he told us that he'd seen the one only Rob Beckett. He started with the standard, I don't mean to bother you, before being cut off by Rob, with the response...... th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I've, I've, I, I, I, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I.

I've, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've, I standard, I don't mean to bother you, before being cut off by Rob with the response, but you do though, don't you? Ha ha ha ha ha! And that was where the exchange ended. Oh no, I was doing that as fun.
Starting point is 00:42:59 I had photos of everyone. Having seen Bob thinks the story the following day, all the pieces fell into place. No, no, I was, my, this is my strategy, I'm not go football. I'll have a photo of you and say alone and all that, but I will like mess about and give you shit. I didn't mean that. I mean I had about 5,000 photos, mate. It was ridiculous. Oh, all such a distance of course. No, it was not like that. But sorry if it came across as rude I was only messing about. It says, I should say, that nothing in the world could have offended us after seeing us beat Germany at Wembley. Love the show, guys. Cheers, James Nash. I'd say when I go football, it's a considered salt.
Starting point is 00:43:39 Yes. You've got to all this pre-salt, haven't you? Oh yeah, and I reckon I said the sea word probably about 20,000 times, in a sort of in a like a generous fun way. Yeah, I said it quite a lot last night and it wasn't in a generous funway. God, right, let's stop talking about last night. Right, small business shout out. Yes, go on. Hi, Rob and Josh, thanks for the great. It also gave me some much needed perspective during lockdown by showing me it would be worse with kids. However, the tables have turned as I'm now eight months pregnant my first baby, congratulations. Listening to Joshua for the past few weeks has been equal parts hilarious
Starting point is 00:44:16 and horrifying. So thanks for that. I'd love it if you could give a shout out to my aunt's toy shop in Billereki, Essex. She specializes in sensory toys for children of autism, Asperger syndrome and anxiety-related issues and spends a lot of time researching and sourcing the items herself. She's so passionate about what she does. And the website is to the moon and back toys Instagram to the digit moon moms. Two moon moms on Instagram. Thanks so much. Best wishes from Charlotte. Not sure if this will swing it for me, but I've pre-ordered both books. I've just read that. I've just read that and it would have swung it for you, but he didn't need to already out anyway. So yeah, to the Moon and back toys. Yeah, because there's not enough good toy shops. Yeah, kids love a toy shop. Hello. Could you do our small business
