Thanks for the show. It's given my amazing wife and I laughs over the pad over the past few months where we moved cities jobs and had a new baby. Brutal. Can you imagine just moving to a new city? I just couldn't do it. Having to make friends. Yeah, but I think of the ones you'd lose. Do you know what the ones you'd shake off. That's the way to look at it. I never have to see them again. Trimming off the deadwood. Yeah, good old clear out. You know like when a football manager comes

Six weeks yeah it's mad like amount of time especially after lockdown and their home school in stuff you didn't know one their to be their no one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one their their their their their their their their their their their their their. their. their. their. they're. their. their. they're. they're. they're. they're. they're. they're no they're no they're. they're no their. their.

I'm. the the their. the their. the their. their. the their. the they get a bit naughty and they've got they're all a bit cocky because they haven't got anyone of their age especially the oldest she's a bit of Queen B so she got a bit naughty she was eating a sandwich and this is before she went back to school we said like you can't have a lolly until you finish your sandwich so anyway so the five-year-old yeah so the five-year-old finished a three-year-old, three-year-old. You can't have a, you know, you can't have a lolly, a five-year-old can.
Starting point is 00:03:28 We went to look at the three-year-old sandwich. The five-year-old had stuffed her sandwich in the three-year-old sandwich. She's got a sandwich. Because she's trying to eat two sandwiches. Oh my God. And the five-year-olds licking a lolly with an empty belly. Oh my word! That is, um, what did you do? I wasn't there, so Lou confiscated the lolly and said that's, you know, that's naughty. You shouldn't do that and you lied. And then the three-year-old wasn't really eating any of her sandwich. It wasn't like she was trying to get through it. She doesn't go, God, this sandwich is endless. It's like two sandwiches in one.
Starting point is 00:04:08 It's like that prank when you play in the change of school PEA and you keep squeezing shampoo on someone's head. Yeah, yeah. Is that that never ending sandwich? I've got a never-ending sandwich. going on. So yeah, so Lou took the lolly off for it so you that's really naughty you mustn't do that you lied and you were sneaky and stuff and then but I did I did respect the hustle to a certain degree do you know I mean? You've got to go you've got. You've got to go but you've got to go but you've got to be fair that was quite clever but a thi told me what you're not. I was like. I. I. I. I. I'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 me. to me. to. to me. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. to me. to me. to me. to me. to me. to me. to me. to me. to me. to me. to me. to me. the. to me. 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. the. to. th. to. to. th. to. to. to. that. to. to. to. like, I'm not telling you off. I was like, look, that was, you know, that was, to be fair, that was quite clever,
Starting point is 00:04:45 but a bit sneaky and you was lying, so you're not allowed to do that. But game recognises game. Oh, game recognises, I actually was quite happy with that. You know, I mean, to be that, to be their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their, to be it, to be it, to be a, to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a game, to be a to be a that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the, the, their, th. th. th. th. to be a game, to be a game, to be a game, to-a. to-a. to-a. to-a. to-a. to-a. to-a. to-a. to-a. to-a. to-a. to-their way out of stuff. Yeah, yeah, of course. Because I don't know if I said it before, when was driving the car. She's got street smarts, hasn't you? She's got street smart. When we was driving, me and Lou were driving, the kids in the back, and they kept someone in their music and they argue and they go, and they're arguing, don't you put our music on and then and Lou was like we can't mommy and daddy are driving and then the free-year-old was like only daddy's driving what are you doing oh and then Lou was absolutely skewered
Starting point is 00:05:31 she had like Michael Portillo in the back ruining her but the other oh the other thing there's a lot of hands on hips in my house and I don't know where they get it from where they just sort of like mmm and 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 they they they th th th th th th th I th I 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. th. th. th. th. th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I the the thi thi thi thi thi thee the the the the the the the the the the the the the thi thi they get it from where they just sort of like mmm they tell you something they go mm but I think they just I think they just need school where do you think that comes from do you think that comes from no or do you think that comes from school I think maybe all of the Netflix they watch are watching are they watching the real housewives of Beverly Hills roll they're watching they're watching I'm not watching they they they they they they they watch watch watch watch watch watch watch watch watch watch watch watch I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I watch watch watch watch watch watch watch watch watch watch watch watch watch watch watch watch watch watch watch watch watch watch watch they're not watching turned around to me and said to me that I'm not going to eat that sandwich because it's got two sandwiches and I'll turn around to her and turn around to her and I'm not eating it. I'm not seeing taking for a mug or nothing. You know what I mean? But this is the other thing. I've been I don't do that because like, they can't see me naked. I'm under the covers.
Starting point is 00:06:25 I'm actually, no, but sometimes you have a leg out of the cover over and then they walk in and you can see your big ass hanging out the bed. Oh my gosh. And I just thought, what's a horrific image for a five-year-old girl to see? Oh my God. She's not. It's too late, it's too late, but I'm going to have to invest, I think, into some as they grow older, like, you know, some big billowy sort of Markson's Benz's dad pajama shorts. I think top half out is fine. Why don't you go with like the bottom half the the tartan trouser? Not I can't do trouser, it will have to be short. But I think marks and spent I the th. I the their it will I their it will I'll have it will their it will their it will that it will th. I'll have it will their it will have it will have it will have it will have it will have it will have it will have it will have their it will have to be it will have it will have it will. It's.

I wear tight ones and they're, I can't, it's hot and sweaty and too ti ti. But I don't like wearing baggy pants. Oh, look at these. These are a pr. Say me over a link. The only problem with these are. These are the problems with these kind of shorts. They look like the kind of shorts that if you have a little bit of spilage when you wee-wee, it looks like you've pissed yourself.
Starting point is 00:08:13 Yeah. So what are you going to do, Rob? I'm going to have to buy just, these are just rubbish, Rob. They're so lame. You can't, the problem with pajama shorts. We just wear short shorts? Like a pair of adi-dash shorts? No, because they're nylony.

Have you thought about an anti-perspun on your ass? I'm not rolling my ass with 48-hour protection.
Starting point is 00:09:12 I'm not robbing a rollerball up my ass, mate. That's going to be through severe skin damage. It's very delicate, skin down there. Awful moment if you're doing that, and then someone just comes in, you walk in and someone's borrowing your deodorant. Lou's run out of deodorant and she's just borrowing your deodron and you know it's the ass stick. Maybe I just need baggy pants but the problem is with pants and shorts you cannot try before you buy. You're just taking a punt on every time every time. I mean I once did a gig with a comedian. Yeah I once did a gig with a comedian. I the comedian the comedian the comedian the comedian the comedian the comedian the comedian the comedian the comedian the comedian the comedian the comedian the comedian the comedian the comedian the comedian the comedian the comedian the comedian the comedian the comedian the comedian the comedian the comedian the comedian the comedian the comedian the comedian the comedian.

Starting point is 00:09:48 and then he took them back to TK Max. Oh my, what a monster that's not allowed. At least he didn't do it on his balls but that's not allowed. It's unacceptable. Anyway, let's move on from that. Oh, hang on. I've all two pairs of these a couple of weeks ago. They are very comfortable, both wearing before bed and also when sleeping. They are lovely and soft to the touch. Can I ask how many pairs you're going to buy, and how many wares you're going to get out
Starting point is 00:10:11 of them before you wash them? Oh, wash them. Because you're going to have to buy seven pairs. Because they're essentially pants. Yeah, pounds 50. You'll look at the outline of under and 50 quid for your pajama pants here. No, that's what I'm saying. So like I'm not one. I just picked these because they came up because they said super soft but like 22 pounds. their twenty thou- the pound pound pound pound th pound th is th is th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the th. th. th. 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 22.

But like I maybe I just need to get some baggy dad pants that are cotton that are like four for a ten or something. Yeah, yeah. I'm not doing that. That they look like shorts you're going to wear downstairs for breakfast. This is not what I don't want my children 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 be. to be. to be. to be. to be. to be the the to be.

Is that the end of the sentence? It's happening that the sentence was
Starting point is 00:11:05 going to continue. I just panicked and that came out. Anyway, but yeah, that's, so that, yeah, you've got to do something about that. You've got to do something about that, because your children are old enough now. I know. What does possible to sound like for your business business? What's having to spend to power your scale with no preset spending limit. Redefine possible with business platinum. That's the powerful backing of American Express. Terms and Conditions apply. Visit Amex. to the tasks. I'm not going back to university to be your friend. I'm going so I can get Uber1 for students. It saves you on Uber and Uber eats. I'm there for zero dollar delivery fee on cheeseburgers, up to 5% off smoothies and 5% Uber cash back on rides. Just to be clear, I'm there for savings, not whatever you think university is for.
Starting point is 00:11:52 Get Uber one for students. A membership to save on Uber and Uber eats. With deals this good, everyone wants to be a student. Savings may vary. Eligibility and member terms apply. I've got a couple of little tips. Before we do the correspondence, I've got a couple little tips. One is a genius loo method of, you know, when they always go, my shoes are the right way around? Is this your daughter do this? Is this the right way? Yeah, it's really difficult to explain. Yes, so this is what we do is, this is what th is what th is what th is what th is what th is what th is what th is what their th. their th. th. th. th. th. thi thi thi is what thi is what thi? thi is what thi? thi. thi. thi. thi. thi is what thi. thi. thi. their their their th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. 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 tip. tip. tip. tip. tip. tip. tip. tip. tip. tip. tip. tip. tip. tip. tip. their shoes have got their name tags in them, which is like they've got their name next to like a little dinosaur, a little unicorn. And then what we do is we put them on the furthest side of the, away from each other, so
Starting point is 00:12:30 it'll be like for the right ship and the right side of it, and for the left ship, and for the shioln't the left. So what we say, they 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, th, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, we, we, we, we, we, we, we, we, we, we, we, we, we, th, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, the, the, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. th. th. th. th. th. tho. tho. the. th. th. tho. th. th. th's a logo on the outside of the shoe. You better know if the dinosaurs were friends, wouldn't it? Yeah, I mean, I think we've gone very negative with this. Yeah, it's quite a negative. Just so you know, these two dinosaurs on your feet, they don't get on. So do keep them away from their thea. And the dinosaurs that's maybe that's you know tells a lot about how Lou was feeling at that point when she decided on the dinosaurs not being friend but yeah maybe they could be friends might be a better way but it still
Starting point is 00:13:10 works as a same method yeah but that's really helped because then they stop asking if it's the right way and then they look out for the dinosaurs being friends or I could just teach? Yeah, it is hard to get loose, don't know, right and left. She's like 35. Yeah, Rose is bad with right and left as well. Um, no, oh, the other thing that I would recommend watching, on ITV2, the reality show, Tommy and Georgia from Towie, have got a show, they've had a baby and a two-part show, and a th., and a th., and a th, and a th, and a th, and a th, and a th, and a th, and a th, and a th, and a th, and a th, and a th, and a th, and a th, and a th, th, the, the, the, the, th, th, and a th, th, th, the, th, the, and, and, the, and, the, and, and th, and the, and th, and th, and th, and th, and th, and th, and th, and th, and th, and a, and a th, th, th, th, th, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, th, right, th, right, right, right, right, right, thri, their, right, their, thri, right, right, right, right, thousand, right, right, thousand, right, right, right, thrie, right, right, right, thousand, right, a Fern McCann one, and then there's the Sam Fairs and Billy Fairs one. But this one's really good because they're very normal people.
Starting point is 00:13:51 Right. Sometimes on those shows, it's like, oh, it's their first birthday. So we can go to Harrods and get them a full Valentino out. Yeah, what are their birthday, do you you fuck? Do you what I mean? You don't have to do that? There's nothing wrong with pizza express. No, the kids love it. It's cheap, but it's ridiculous. It's wasted that money. It's wasted that's my thing. But Tommy and Georgia, what's good about them is they're really nice, normal people, right? And Tommy's very successful outside of reality TV. He's got his own footwear business that's mega successful. He's got like a turnover of like, he's sold like 12 million dollars worth of shoes
Starting point is 00:14:35 last year. What are the shoes? A mallet? They're called mallet trainers. And they're high-end, They're the high end, but not expensive their their their their their th. th. th. th. He's th. He's th. He's th. He's th. He's th. He's th. He's th. He's th. He's th. He's th.

He's doing really well and he's absolutely minted but he still does normal stuff of his kid. He's got a nice car and things like that but they go down the caravan to visit his parents and things like that and Georgia and told me they're both really honest about parenting and the strenuble's and especially Georgia talks about getting a their. their their. their their. their to to to to their. their. to their. think the really good show, because it's one of those reality shows, it's quite interesting, but also it's quite realistic and not this sort of fake like, oh my god, it's their birthday, so there's like, you know.

Starting point is 00:16:46 sometimes you're allowed to not know yeah what you think about that I don't don't really know actually about that is that okay I think social media robbers meant everyone fears they have to have an opinion on everything yeah but we should we need to start the backlash yeah people who are quite happy not to have an opinion on some things. Yeah, I tell you what, email in, what don't you have an opinion on? And email in what it is and then obviously leave the no opinion. Yeah.

Hi guys, so this is some correspondence. Yes, we should do some correspondence. We have promised it for about three months. Go get an email out Josh let's do this. Hi guys, love the show. Always
Starting point is 00:17:36 brings a big spar to my face. Congratulations to Josh on the arrival of your baby. We have had a lot of these emails for quite a while. How old is your baby now? Four months. Four months. Four months. I thought I'd just share the experience of my wife and I had at the birth of our eldest daughter who was born via C-section. We had a wonderful obstetrician and a doctor with a huge personality.
Starting point is 00:17:58 As you said, the C-section is basically major abdominal surgery. Being the the the all the doctors and nurses hearing the chat was fascinating. Anyway, our consultant had a junior a doctor assisting him that day. The birth went smoothly, no problems, and then it came for the tidy up. That can't be the technical term. The tidy up. That's underplaying it, the tidy up. So the equivalent of like your ass being ripped apart by a tornado. I'll have the tidy up. Get this tidy now. The junior doctor was given instructions to remove the placenta. We're on the other side of the screen admiring our beautiful girl. My wife obviously totally numb from the waist down can't feel anything but as aware of tugging and pulling on the tidy up. Can I say something. Can I say th. Can I th. Can I th th. Can't say th say th say th say th say th say th say thuuu th say thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu-I thu-I thu-I thi their their thi thi thi thi thi. Can't thi. thi thi 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 thi thi thi thi thi ti ti ti. Get ti. Get ti. ti. ti. ti. tiu-upi. ti. ti. ti. ti. ti. ti. ti. ti., but I don't want one anywhere to fucking near me when I'm ill. I want a senior. I want a senior if they're doing the tidy up. It's always like, you know,
Starting point is 00:18:50 I understand there needs to be a junior at somewhere and they've got to learn somehow, but not on me if that's okay. Is that fair? I've got the same feeling with training hairdress as Rob. Yeah, I've the same, I've the same, I've the same, I've the same, I've the same, I've the same, I've the same, I've the same, I've the same, I've the same, I've the same the same the same the same the same the same the same the same the same the same the same their the same the same thrain 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 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 the same thraining thraining training training training training training training training training training training training thranny thranny thin, all right? Not on this bonn's. This barn is for professionals only. Right, so my wife can't feel anything, but is aware of some tugging and pulling going on in the other regions. Then quite unexpectedly a loud booming voice shouts out, no, no, that's the liver. The color dras my rise face, I'm like, oh what then, one of the the theater nurses comes is, it, thes, thes, thes, thes, thes, thes, thes, thes, thes, thes, thes, thes, thes, thes, thians, thians, thians, thians, thians, thians, thians, thians, thians, thi, thi, thi, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thians, thians, thians, thians, thians, thians, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, is thi, is thi, is thi, is thi, is thi, is thi, is thi, is the, is theeeeeean, is thean, is thean, is thean, is thean, thean, is thiats, thi. This, thi, thi, thi, that's the liver. The color dresser rise face. I'm like, then one of the theater nurses comes up to us and says, don't worry, he's joking.
Starting point is 00:19:32 Oh, oh, oh, oh, no, oh my God. That is some prank to play from the obstetrician. Someone's knick in your liver, someone's doing the procedure. Annable lecture and Christopher Bgin's doing the procedure. He's having a laugh, he's eating your liver. So is he winding up the junior doctor then? I think he's winding up the junior doctor? No, not. Keep your banner.
Starting point is 00:19:51 I don't start fucking talking about, you know, the difference between the types of diabetes on stage. You stopped doing jokes, all right? I thin' that's, thi. they. they. they. they. thi. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thi. thi. thi. I's, thi. I's, thin'n't, thin'a. I's, thin'a'a'a'a'a'a'n't.

No, which actually bit me in the bum once when I tried to smuggle in a picnic into a music festival. And basically... A picnic, a picnic, a full picnic or a chocolate bar? Massive full picnic, right? It was like a chilled music festival. And they said, you're not allowed to bring to to to to to, a to, a picnic, a picnic, a picnic, a picnic, a, a, a picnic, a, a, a, a, a picnic, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a picnic, a picnic, a picnic, a picnic, a picnic, a picnic, a picnic, a picnic, a picnic, a picnic, a picnic, a picnic, a picnic, a picnic, a picnic, a picnic, a picnic, a picnic, a picnic, a picnic, a picnic, a picnic, tape. tape.

A, t food in because I'm diabetic and I went they went what type I went the one where you need loads of food oh no and then they said do you need 50 mini sausage rolls and I said yes so yeah we got it in mate yeah under duress sort of look back a shame
Starting point is 00:20:39 really of that but a different time yeah yeah so yeah I'm not sure about this banter doctor no it's not my scene I think i thi 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 th th th thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi the the they're not 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 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 not they they're not th thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi the thi thi thi this banter doctor. No it's not my scene. I think there's places for banter and that is on. It's not the womb. No exactly. It's on mock the week. I like a laugh as much as the next junior doctor. Yeah. Yeah also as well you imagine the junior doctor is so annoyed he must have known it wasn't the liver. Surely you know it's not the liver. I've. I. I. I. I. 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 junior. the junior. the the junior. 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 thu. thu. thu. tooooooooooooooooooom. tea. tea. thu. thea. thean. thean. thean. the the the liver. Surely you know it's not the liver. I don't know I've never been in there. Maybe it's confusing. Even the liver, you've got to put her, right? You've got to say her liver. It's just so depersonalizing, that the tidy up in the liver. Do you know what I hate when people talk about babies? They don't say the baby. Oh yeah that does. Why don't they. I'm that. I I I I I I I I I I I I that. I that. I that. I that. I that. I that. I that. I that. I that. I just. I just. I just. I just. I just. I just. I just. I just say. I just say. I just say. I'm that.

Oh man, yeah, that is awful. Yeah, that is terrible. Why did I do that? When baby comes is up there with you looking forward to meeting him. Fuck off.
Starting point is 00:21:33 Meeting him. Yeah, in about nine years when he's got a fucking personality. I'm not looking for him, no. I'm receiving him. I'm going to be up with him for three months. I'm not meeting him. We're not, we're not going to Zees. Do you know what I mean? It's like getting sent a bouquet of flowers?
Starting point is 00:21:52 It's lovely, but then you've got to go, I've got to cut the stem now, find some water in it. I'm not sure about flowers. It feels a bit like a hospice did it? Avars. Do you not like roses big into flowers? When we used to live near Columbia Road market every Sunday. Oh I'm asked you what used to work there. Yeah I know. I remember me seeing Graham Norton, I sold him with some compost. Martin Fowler from East Enders, James Alexander. I, oh no no, Martin Fowler, yeah. Yeah, Martin Fowler. Yeah, yeah. James Alexander. Foulter. That is, you've pulled that one out of nowhere, aren't you? I mean I'd struggled to name the person that played Martin Fowler in Eastenders. James Alexander, James Alexander. Did you say, are you James Alexander?
Starting point is 00:22:43 No but he knew I knew. That was big boy shit back in the day. I don't know what's happened to him. Did you ask if he was going to use it on Arthur's allotment? How's Graham Norton? He was for lovely, fine, really nice. You have mentioned it to him? Yep, on his show. Obviously.
Starting point is 00:22:57 Obviously, research chat. Rob, do you want to try and establish yourself as the every man on a talk show? Yes, I will. Grand Nort and I sold you a bag of shit.

Hurry up, stop crying, you've got to talk to get the book sales up. She emailed Suffolk Libraries to order copies of our books. Oh, yes. Dear Rebecca, thank you for your stock suggestions.
Starting point is 00:24:31 We have ordered both watching neighbors trust day by Josh Widdickham and a class app by Rob Beckett, and they should appear on our catalogue. . Do you find you're doing it yourself. What did you do? When I was doing the, the, um, what's it called, audio book? Oh yeah. I found some typos in my fucking book and it was too late. Oh, I phoned them up. I was like, there's some typos. And I was like, oh, thiii. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. the thi. thi. the thi. thi. thi. thi. thi, to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to th.

Have I just been fobbed off?
Starting point is 00:25:11 You've been really fobbed off there, Josh? Anyway, if you do buy my book and see the typos, I'll give you something. Two tickets to a tour show. What are you doing? Why are you panicking? I just panicked. Does that what? What do you give us a prize?
Starting point is 00:25:34 Why don't you're asking for the typos? Why thooo? see the typos are off. Yeah but you're making them look for it now. Yeah do read the book don't just go through it looking for the typos. Fair enough. Wait, while you're looking for the typos you might as well take the words. I've got I've got some quick ones here Josh right. the bathtime tip. Here we go. This is from Joe in Conchester. I haven't shared those tickets with my agent. Yeah let's just say that there is no competition, just buy his book and read it. What Josh Winnockham does not need, it's a million people emailing things he's done wrong in his book he's really proud of and then be forced to give away free tickets, which is going to be an admin, fucking nightmare and you'll probably be pulled up by some sort of the gaming commission that though that is not the game. I.. the gaming. the gaming. I. I. I. the gaming. I. I. I. the gaming. the gaming. I not. the gaming. the gaming. the gaming. the gaming. the gaming. It's. the gaming. It's not. It's not. It's not.

Yeah, you can't just go, oh fucking is a ticket. What's the rules? What's the system? What's the rules? Yeah. What is this? Las Vegas? What is the first person? All right
Starting point is 00:26:33 then, all of a sudden, boom, I've read your book. Oh, and there's a ty first person. Okay so how are you going to know who's the first person? I check it in my email inbox. They're coming in order. What if they Instagram it? How do they they apply? The competition's been cancelled. Right, if you have emailed in that brief period when the competition was live, I will accept your answers. Yeah, but the competition was live for everyone forever at a certain point because it's this is a podcast. Oh no, at the time of recording, so if you're listening to us now as we record, if you're in the next hotel room to look. So Michael, only Michael or me can email in. Yeah, and to be honest, you're more than welcome to come to my tour. I don't expect you to, but I would probably sort out out to you to you to you 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 me to me to me to me to me to me to me to me to me to me to me to me to be to be to be to be to be to be to be the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the toe.cooe.coo.coo.coo.coo.coo. the to.coo.coo. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. I toe. you to but I would probably sort you out free tickets anyway. Yeah I probably won't. Okay right competitions cancelled right I've got bath time tip here. Gentz your podcast
Starting point is 00:27:30 kept me going for the last 18 months keep up the good work. Something that's worked well for our nearly five year old at bath time is setting an Ava World Record. Set a timer on your phone starting an entry into the bath and into pajamas and then write it on a chart makes quick bath times fun and competitive when little ones try to beat their best time. You're welcome Joe from Colchester. That is good. So you put the kid in a bath. You do it. Wash them. Do the, do it. I think actually you need it from leaving the bath. I suppose if they're going to be in the bath for the bath for the bath bath bath bath bath ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages ages.

But you can manage that but that will forces them to get in the pajamas quick. I think that's the thing that is that is good. It is setting a child into quite competitive environment early doors. And then they're so pumped up to go to go to sleep. It does sound like the kind of thing you read about in Andre Agassi's autobiography which is an excellent book I should say. Although it's. That's. That's. That's. That's.

Starting point is 00:28:31 Have you read it? Yeah, it's amazing. Unbelievably. Especially as a parent. The worst parenting I've ever... Oh, it's insane. Yeah, completely fucked him up. Actually, I'd say worse than that if you want if you want books about bad parenting Do not go any further than Lily Allen's autobiography. Yes, that's a great one Jesus we've got to get her on here we need to do so. Oh man That was brutal. Oh, what did you call her about the greatest pop star ever or something?

Oh, lovely. I've just picked a random time then.
Starting point is 00:29:07 Yeah, so since 1990. Since 1990? All right, here we go. Look, Judge, we got what? Obviously in the 80s she wouldn't have a fucking chance. There were so many good lyricsists. Right. I've got some really funny panic attack stories, right.
Starting point is 00:29:19 Oh, please. So this was worst place to have a panic attack. Yeah, no, well just funny panic stories basically because we spoke about having panic attack, thank you for all your emails, we've had loads of emails. And not the emails, we've had lots of emails, we've had lots of emails. the sort of mental health nurses that said it's been helpful. read them and we appreciate you. There's so many emails that Rob's had another panic attack. Yeah exactly not how it was how that's because of the guilt of not replying but these we're reading out the funny ones as well as the heartfurt ones about stuff like that so yeah yeah this is a good one this one this one this one this one the o'nesty the the one one one th th th th th th th th th th let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let let 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 they they they they they they they they they toy. toy. toy. toy. they. the the the they. the the the they. the the the they. the the the the the the the I've really enjoyed the podcast to listen since day one. After listening to Friday's podcast and hearing of Josh's toilet ordeal, I thought it was only fair I shared the numerous times I have panicked in a
Starting point is 00:30:11 less than appropriate environment. Whilst I could go on to name a whole list of events, I would like to discuss the time I was eating a roast dinner and fainted into my dinner at the dinner table because I was so stressed. Oh God. After my parents rang an ambulance in panic and managed to move me onto the sofa, it transpired. I ate so much food the blood had rushed from my head causing me to Hypervent Lake and panic about this. Oh my word.
Starting point is 00:30:35 He put the good work on podcast and making everyone laugh. Oh wow. It's proper slapstick falling in your dinner, isn't it? Absolutely gravy face. What would you be your dream dinner to fall into, Rob? What would be the ideal? Oh, mashed potato? Yeah, but nothing too hot. Mash potato, no, mass potato would be a good one. Jelly.
Starting point is 00:30:52 Jelly. Oh, but you could drown in jelly. Do you know what? I'd say an upturned pie. Yeah. It's like a memory phone pillow. It'll remember your face had been there. That's poor old headache. This is Jenny. Yeah. This one is real this one. Hi. Robin Josh before I started my medication I used to have at least one panic attack every day for years. Geez. So luckily she's gone to the doctor and got the right medication.
Starting point is 00:31:21 Basically I was fiddled with panic. No shit. Really. My boyfriend at the doctor and got the right medication. Basically I was fucking riddled with panic. No shit. Really? My boyfriend at the tie was sleeping on his mom's sofa in her tiny one bedroom flat. I was there one night, she had gone off to bed and things got a bit heated, like in a sexy way, not an angry way. He somehow ended up having sex on the floor of the living room. Oh my gosh. One minute I was loving life and the next I was absolutely overwhelmed with panic because we were doing it. I could say loving life is a great euphemism. I was loving life and the next minute I was absolutely overwhelmed with panic because we was doing it in the front room near his mom. I literally had to kick him off and
Starting point is 00:32:00 crawl across the floor to the front door where I reached up, ripped it open. the the doorway, completely 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 was the the their th. I was th. I was their their their. I was doing the the the the their. I was doing their. I was doing their. I was their. I was their.

Oh my God! Do you think at one point he went, damn I'm good. the today, before he realized it was a panic attack. God damn, a man's got skilled! Poor Jenny. But that is a gamble isn't it? The living room floor in a one bed flat with the mum in the bedroom. I'd say if you do suffer a bit of panic now and again, that is not the place to shag. No. You need a calm environment for a boning. Exactly. Have you got any emails Josh? Yes. Hi, hi. place to shag. No. You need a calm environment for a boning. Exactly. Have you got any emails Josh? Yes. Hi, Rob and Josh. Love the podcast. Look forward
Starting point is 00:32:52 to them every week. Got a little story about my seven-year-old at bedtime. After story time, she showed me a picture of a puppy that had been left out in the rain and abandoned. There were two houses in the background. One with a closed door and the other the door was closing. Harper got really upset and started to cry about the poor abandoned puppy. Both myself and my dad tried to console her, but she couldn't get it out of her head and just kept saying, I just keep imagining how sad it must be. Oh. After 15 minutes of tears she decided she wanted to throw away the picture. She tore it from it from it from it from it the book 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, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, thoes.a, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, she decided she wanted to throw away the picture. She tore it from the book, bined it, gave myself my husband, my sister, our two dogs a cuddle and reluctantly went to bed.
Starting point is 00:33:32 On the face of this, this doesn't sound too unusual. Here is the kicker though. Harper had drawn the picture herself only five minutes before the drama had ensued. The parents must be looking at each other and what the fuck have we bred? Seven year old, who's drawn a picture of a sad dog that's too sad for her to deal with. Oh no, that's horrible. It's unbelievable. I do sometimes think maybe a Disney film's too dark. Yeah. There's always something dead, isn't there in it? Yeah. It's death, I think maybe a Disney film is too dark. Yeah. There's always something dead, isn't there, in it?
Starting point is 00:34:07 Is death a thing, are your daughters aware of death now then? Uh, yes, yes, yes, so my, uh, the nans, my mother-in-law's cat died. And they was like, oh, where's Harry, and she died? And she went oh why when she got old and she died and then they're like oh you're gonna die aren't you to the man's like yes at some point but they're very matter of fact of like yeah they'll die you'll just die at some point so they don't quite realize what the kind of implications are they're not worried about they're not worried about the infinite darkness of the afterlife no they're more they sort of 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 of they're tho tho tho tho tho they're tho tho they're they're tho they're thi the tho tho tho the 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 the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th tho tho tho tho tho tho tho thou thou thou the the thou to the tho tho tho to tho tho thou the tho tho the thou the the the the the th infinite darkness of the afterlife. No, they're more, they sort of think of death as like, oh yeah, we'll go to Spain one day. And stuff, but yeah, I don't think, you know, I don't think anyone's really, I don't think anyone really gets a red round it.
Starting point is 00:34:55 Yeah, I don't, I don't know, I think it's something there's always there, isn't it? That and tax. If you have got your head around death, do email in. It'd be good to know, actually. If you've sorted it out, if you can explain it to us. Yeah, I think our listeners will be quite interesting the topic, actually. If anyone out there's got their head round death, let's know. If you've made your piece of life of life, their life, their, theto know what the sort of vibe is, just sort of what's aware, how to deal with it. Do you believe in ghosts, Rob? No, I don't believe in ghosts, but I do believe in giving off different energy without
Starting point is 00:35:36 saying too much like a twat, that like if you're positive, good things will happen and it helps, because I think enthusiasm is contagious, so if you're positive by an idea you can bring people together, but a bad negative energy can sort of pull people apart. So I'm very aware of different people coming into a room and the energy they bring to that room will have an impact. Right, yeah. And I think sometimes misplaced that for spirituality or like ghosts. But I think it's like that Victorian with a head under the arm. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. their. their. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. th. thi, thi, I's, 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's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I, I, I, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. to, th. th. th. thi. thi. to, to, thi. to, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. to toee. toe. thi. to, thi. ir arm. No, none of that kind of stuff or Caspar. But what about you? Do you believe in ghosts?
Starting point is 00:36:05 No, but not enough where I would be confident of sleeping in a creaky room. Do you know what? Really? Yeah, so I don't, I know in my, logically I'm like, well, there's no ghosts. But if you said, do you want to walk through that creepy woe that that is apparently haunted, I shit myself. You know, but I wouldn't be worried about that. I'd be worried about getting jumped by some lunatic or a bear. Yeah, but Rob, you live in Southeast London. Yeah, that's the thing.
Starting point is 00:36:32 It ain't the ghost I'm worried about, it's the five teenagers on dirt bike, smoking. Exactly. Whereas when you grew up on Dartmoor of Bodmin's a real thing, Rob. Is it actually a real animal? Yes, it's like a lynx or a puma or something that's been let, someone's just had like, you know, there's people that keep those big cats. Well, why don't we ever see it? Well, it occasionally pops up, doesn't it gets filmed? Yeah, but I don't feel like it's been filmed since about 2003. Maybe it's dead. It's probably died. Yeah, like a big panther or something. Explain that to your daughter. You know the Beast of Bodmin? Yeah, it's dead.
Starting point is 00:37:09 There's not been a news story about the Beast of Bodmin for ages. No. Oh, two weeks ago, big cat appears in front of a cyclist in Cornwall Woodland. photo next to the poor print. It's fucking huge. Well there we go. Oh my God, it's nearly as big as Ray Stubbs' face in that photo you tried to make. But yeah, no, I don't believe in ghost but I do believe in a, in a people's energy having an impact on their life. Yeah, yeah, 100%? Have you seen the Beast of Bobman? All these emails who will accept. I think there are because people must have got like, you know, because there's like, there's alligators in the sewers in New York.
Starting point is 00:37:47 Yeah, yeah, exactly. That's exciting, isn't it? I think there's turtles and a little rat. Little rat. Little rat? Who can't you do Kung Fu? Have you got enough for email? Yeah. Yes, okay, here we go. Buh, Buh, Buh. Hi, Robin Josh, I'm a big fan of your podcast and probably your only listener from Egypt. This is Kamal Nessam.

What would Rebecca do? I'd love a relationship with a thapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapap. the the the the the kid, Liz parents, is at stake. I love the podcast, hope it goes on forever, thanks with a great laughs.
Starting point is 00:38:46 Come out. Well, I think you've got to ride it out, come out and just laugh it off, don't you think? You know, a bit of fun. You don't, it's not like you've just been swearing for the sake of it, you hurt yourself. My daughter said, oh my god. the. I was, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I, I, I, I, I'm, I th. I thi, I thi, I thin, I thin, I thin, I thin, I thin, I thin, I thin, I th. I th. I th. I th.

Yeah, exactly, you know, that's fine, it's just a turn of phrase. Is that all right? Well, saying, I can give a shit mate, yeah, but I don't know, yeah, but everyone can get me up with something. I know, I know, I try not to swear in front of her, but occasionally you doturned out fine. Yeah. I swear loads though. I do swear loads.
Starting point is 00:39:26 My parents swear. But I think as well. I don't even think about swearing. No, that's because our place of work, it doesn't matter. Yeah. That we can say what if we want. Oh my daughter says, OMG. My daughter says Omg. more offensive because she sounds so posh. Yeah that is a very different child. Yeah very very different being but I think that's fine come out I think as
Starting point is 00:39:48 well sometimes they're gonna hear it at some point they might as well they're their legend. You don't want a child that's like innocent to these things. I remember when I was in year seven of school and I didn't know what 69 I was and someone had to draw in a bit of paper for me and me and me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me to me to me to me to me to me to me to me 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 the the th th. th. I th. I th. I the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the laughed. I'm going to say it Rob. And this is why when your daughter turned three and five you told them what 69 was. No, some people would say that's bad parenting. No, they're not aware of what that is. To be honest, I don't think their mom knows where that is yet. Hey! It's a lovely bit of business. It's a lovely bit of a business. It's a business. It's a thiiii. It's a little thi. It's a little thi. It's a thi. It's a thi. It's a thi. It's a thi. It's a to to to to to to to to to to be to to be to be to to be to to be to be 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 th.

It's a bit of business. 69. There's a lot of hassle in it when you're like married up. It's just, it's just one of the most overrated things in the world.
Starting point is 00:40:28 It really, it feels like it's going to be so much fun. It's a lot of admin and no one's really on their A game because you can't. It's neither one thing nor the other is it? If you're doing your good job, if you're doing your job, if you're doing your doing your doing your doing your doing your doing your doing your the the job well, if their job. It's a combined average effort on both ends, literally. I completely agree with you, Rob. And I think, to be honest, the nation will. And it's good, do you know when you like, someone needed to say this? Yeah, someone didn't say the 69er is overrated. That's something I'm with, you know. Right. Finally we're going to get to do this merch. Because the 69's overrated and four skins are funny. I think I might have stole a bit of your routine by accident last night, Josh. Oh no, what did you do? Well, I didn't, I didn't, I did an observation that I thought, oh, I think Josh has done this.
Starting point is 00:41:22 I was talking about how four skins disappear. Could I just say, if you, I'm going to say I didn't stay stay stay stay stay stay stay stay stay stay stay stay stay ss, I'm going to say, I'm going to say, I'm going to say, I'm going to say, I'm going to start, I'm going to start, to start, to start, to start, to start, to start, to start, to start, well, well, well, I'm to start, I'm to start, I'm to start, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I'm, I'm, to start, to start, to start, to start, to start, to start, to start, to start, to start, to start, to start, to start, to start, to see, to see, to see, too, I'm, too, too, think Josh has done this. I was talking about how fourskins disappear. Could I just say, yeah, if you, I'm going to say I've done it anyway, and if it's good, I'm going to start using it. Okay, well, this is what I said, I was talking about fourskins been funny. I don't think I've got any four skin stuff. Well, no, theyrowns, I's th. for skin because that's the kind of stuff I do. And it's really great actually when you know you did impressions. I do and I've got a expense from foreskin so that's actually the first night I did that and
Starting point is 00:41:50 my impression of a foreskin and I was quite rude actually it went a bit more crass than normal and then this morning on the school run the new preschool teacher I haven't actually met yet said or I saw your show last night at Bromley so that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was.. that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was the that was the their. It was their. It was actually. It was actually their the the the the the the the the the the their. their. the the the the the the the their. the first. the first. the first. the first. the first. the first. the first. the first. the first. the the first. the first. the the the the the their. I was actually. I was actually. I was actually. I was actually. It's was actually. It's their. I was actually. It's their th. I was actually th. I was actually th. I was actually th. I was actually th. I was actually th. I was actually th. I was actually th. I was actually th. I was actually the the first. I was actually the the the So that was good to know that she's seen me do an impression of a foreskin before I've actually got her name. So that's cool. Anyway so I do that and then I say that the foreskin's weird because it disappears when you've got an erection it only exists on a flaccid penis. Yes. It only exists on a fla-n'eat. It only that's a bit like a lap. And that's a bit like... And that, I I I I I I that, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, that, that, 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 that's that's that's that's that's that's that, so I that, so, so I that, so, so I that, 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 that's that's that's that's that's a that's that's a that's that's a that's a that's that's that's said that it's like a lap. I used to have a bit on that didn't I? You used to a bit on the day. So I feel like I've ninked that off you so but I have have you're welcome to it because I haven't spoken about laps in a good 10 years. Really? So could I start taking on the lap stuff? Is that was in my first Edinburgh show. Here's a question about stand-up. Yeah. So I've got some new stuff about amusement arcades. Okay. But I've got some old stuff about amusement arcades. Okay. But I've got some old stuff about amusement arcades. Okay. But I was just like, oh, it would go really well.
Starting point is 00:43:00 Just to just drop that one minute extra bit in there? Well I'd say if it's a one-minute bit that helps all the other stuff and it links in and makes it a really good bit, you probably can because there'll be people that, if they did see it 10 years ago in Edinburgh, in an hour and a half show I don't think they're going to be angry bit about amusement arcades, you can't ignore the dance machines. Do you know that? No, exactly. I think, you know what, let the audience decide. Let the audience decide, let the man in the street make the decision.
Starting point is 00:43:34 Right, would you have one more email and then wrap up? Things you say as a parent that you can't believe you find yourself saying. Okay.

I'm not heated, or you know, I'm born in a barn's the other option in it.
Starting point is 00:43:54 But I think heat in the street adds another layer of, I have to you know you actually quite annoyed how much this kid is costing you. Yes, yeah exactly. Not only do I have to heat you, I've got to heat the street as well now. Claire from London has submitted it's like Blackpool Illuminations in here. That's a great one. That is an absolute classic.
