Starting point is 00:00:32 to the today, to be a parent. Hello. I'm Josh Whitakum. Welcome to Parent in Hell, 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 how they're not coping. And we'll also be hearing from you the listener 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.
Starting point is 00:01:16 Hello you're listening to Parenting Hell with. Herbert can you say Rob Beckett? Rob Beckett. And can you say Josh Widdickum? Josh O'Wee? Very good. There we go. Was that a Herbert?
Starting point is 00:01:36 It is. What a fucking brilliant name? I didn't know you was allowed to call you kid Herbert anymore. It's allowed. Brilliant. That is superb. I wish I'd known that a years ago, a year ago when I was having a kid. Herbert Beckett, Bertie Beckett, Herbert. Herb? Herb? Herb's good, isn't it? Herb's good, isn't it? Yeah. An American lawyer in the deep south. Oh mate, you're gonna love you're gonna love the little sister's name as well. What what is it? Do you want to guess where they're from? Or do you want the info first? Is this rubbish this part of the show? Yeah, well, yeah. Do we know where they're from?
Starting point is 00:02:11 Yeah. I'll read you the email because you'll get a second name as well. Okay. Here it up. That implies he's probably not not as forward as they want him to be. He was confident about Rob bit more subdued by the challenge of Mr Winnockham. Listening to your podcast with one year in while waiting to see if Herb's little sister Huxley has the ability to self-settle is one of my favorite Huxley. And Huxley. I thought Huxley was a boy's name. I don't remember Huxley Pig. Do you remember Huxley Pig? I don't remember. This is a Herbert a car? Herbie. Herbie. Herbie. Herbby. Herbie's a car, yeah. Herbie. Herbys. Oh, Huxley and Herbie. Oh, area of London she lives in, it's pretty swish. Oh, it's got to be West London.
Starting point is 00:03:07 You can't unleash a Herber and Huxley on a comprehensive school in Southeast London. It's Wandsworth, which is very nice. Oh, Wondie. Bit of Wondow, South West. They're thinking, man's clap. And that is Hannah, Hannah, the to to to to to to to to to to to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. toe. toe. toe. toe. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. to to to to to to to to to to to to to be. 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 the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the. the. the the.o.o.oo., the the the the the thooooooo., too., too., too., too., too., to Herb and Huxley in Wandsworth. Hannah Herb and Hucks, the Triple H. Thank God they didn't start with Kay. How are you, Rob? Um, I'm all good actually.
Starting point is 00:03:30 I'm all right. Yeah, not too bad. We did a very, we did the live show last night. Yeah, one of the live shows. And I had a very depressing journey home. Yeah, of course I do. I don't know, I'll find out what you've been up to. Unless you want to go first. No, go for it. I'm, I can't, I can't sit here waiting for the news of a depressing journey home. Well, it was quite a difficult evening in total. So basically on the journey home, I was hungry so I pulled over in Campbell and ate a KFC on my own in a car. Oh my god. Well, that's a bin. Yes it is. Actually things are looking pretty good. Do we at a table one day? And I ate it really fast because sometimes when I eat bad food I ate really fast so
Starting point is 00:04:14 then it's over. Which I think there's some sort of deep psychological problem there. I've done about you. Yeah. That's not good is it? No. I've got a friend and he, when he has a takeaway, the instant he finishes, even if he's got food left, he just takes all of the stuff and just puts it in the bin. Yeah, I'm a bit like, I'm one of those guys, right? I've got a remote, I can't have it in front of me, I can't remember, I can't remember I did it. So, 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 th, I, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, th, I the, 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 thin, the the that, that, the the the the took, the in, the in, the in, the in, the in, the in, the in, the't even very nice and I just wolfed it down and then I got home and then I've got this bit of a chesty cough. Can I just ask I'm just trying to picture this you're just sat in a car on the street or or

So I just had my like, I just kept on checking the doors, locked loads. Yeah. You know, I've pressed lot, but just in case it's changed. Yeah. So I was eating that and I was sort of rushing it down.

Starting point is 00:05:28 it's always like coughing like a little bit and it's a bit, not to get disgusting, a bit of a chesty cough, a bit flemy and stuff and stuff. And then I've been at night, Iestion and the chesty cough and all that and I was like, yeah I couldn't get anything down it was all I needed a reny but I didn't want to go downstairs to wait the dog and then I woke up and I thought it was the morning and it was only like one a today.

No, you've got to learn to feel uncomfortable.

So I'm a bit tired today. Oh God. How about you? I mean, your day must have been better than that. Top three terrible day since we started the podcast. I got top three, one of the top three worst days since we've started no way. Yeah. Why did you make me do my KFC story when you had that? Nothing can follow it. Well, no, I just... So Rose has got COVID, Rob. I thought she's already had it.
Starting point is 00:08:26 No, she was the only one that didn't get it. At my Super Spreader event just before Christmas that I attended. Yeah, so you got it and you gave it to your daughter. Every other adult got it. Every adult except Rose. Did Rose go to the event? Yep. seven adults, six of which got COVID. Rose didn't get COVID. Right? And then she didn't get it off you in the house? So you think, oh, she's had it, she's fine.
Starting point is 00:08:48 Didn't get it off me and my daughter in the house. No. You think she's immune? Yeah. And she had a boosted up? She's had a boosted up. I'm joking. New Zealand from Mr. Is she? So where did she get it? I don't know, but she's been ill for the last two days. Oh no. She took her lateral flow this morning and she's got COVID.
Starting point is 00:09:12 Oh no. Is she brought ill as well? I'm not just like properly a whale. Yeah, she's under the weather. Not too bad just under the weather. No, but also this was my first day back, day back working on last leg.

So found that out. Remember, last day after the last series of Last Leg, the day after the last series of Last Leg was the day, I tested positive for COVID. Now you're back again. It's quite poetic.
Starting point is 00:09:38 Yeah, it's really, really neat. That's what I like about it. So obviously, I'm going to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to be the the the to do to do to me me. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the thoes. the. theat. theat. the. the. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. the. the. the. the. the. th So obviously I'm going to do zoom calls, then we think we should test my son. How old's your son? What is he now? May? So nine months, something like that? Oh, eight months? And so we test him at five to ten, meetings at ten. Then I get a text in the meeting from Rose saying that he's got COVID. Oh my God. Is he all right? He's been a bit sniffly, but when isn't a baby sniffly? Do you know what I mean? It's actually more likely they're unwell when they're not sniffily? Exactly. This kid's too dry. This kid's nose is too dry. So, um, my daughter's not the rule, is it? the true, thr-o'l is it? th.

Okay, that's not the rule, is it? No, but it's like, fair enough.
Starting point is 00:10:28 You don't want people coming in who are living in a house at COVID. So she's at home for the rest of the week. Oh, that's good. That's Andy, that's to go to school. And no one's allowed around your house to have them and look after them and help. I know exactly so we can't get any help because Rose's mom was wondering because obviously on Friday's last leg so it's quite a difficult one for Rose because like I'm not here all day and evening so her mom was coming but she can't come anymore so the tho the to' tho- th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th tho- tho- tho-so tho-so tho-so tho-so tho-so's tho-so's to to to to the the the the the to their mom to their mom the their mom their mom the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the to to the the the to the the the the the the the to the the the tho's the the the tho's to the tho's to to's to-n to' to' to' to-n to' to-no' to' to-n' to' to' to to to to to to to to to to their the to So suddenly, Friday is like an absolute shocker for Rose, stuck home and two kids and with COVID.
Starting point is 00:11:08 Sorry, I don't know. It's understandable. It's just, you just can't quite believe it, Rob. I mean, I feel like you've had COVID about six times, and I think you've had lots of COVID scares. Well, yeah, do you know what the weird thing is? And you tested yourself? Yeah, I'm, I'm clear.

Oh God. But she would have been in on Wednesday and Friday. Yeah, so now everything that I'm doing like going upstairs, I feel a deep like, you're like, you know, suddenly
Starting point is 00:14:50 it's child care central here. Do you know what? Yes, yeah, there's kids everywhere. And also the main care give up, Rose when you're working, is not well.

Oh and another thing how about not Adam how about not Alex how about I get a laid down surely you can just tap out of us a couple of meetings can't you well they were very quick today because obviously there's a lot to talk about in the news Rob Boris Johnson Adam Hills has got an MBE it's a big week it's a big week it's a big week it's a fine yeah fair enough you'll be all right yeah but fuck you know what to start the year oh and I can't sell the restaurant a restaurant a restaurant a restaurant a the restaurant a the restaurant a the restaurant the restaurant the restaurant the restaurant the restaurant the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the to to to to to the to the to to to the the the the to the the to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the 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. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. to start the year? Oh, and I cancelled a restaurant reservation. They charge me 40 quid. What bastards? Really? Yeah. Oh, no. I think that's really unfair because you're
Starting point is 00:15:51 not canceling because you're being horrible. It's just unfortunate for you as well, thrown. Yeah. Name and shame? No, we can't. No, I can't. I don't want people to know how high end my restaurant bookings are. you know what Josh Josh. 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 that. I th. I th.

But you're not gonna. It's KFC. They've got to fuck them guys, they've got enough fucking advertising out of me. Exactly. I canceled four seats in a car in the street. KFC if you're listed,
Starting point is 00:16:15 if you eat KFC, you feel sad and alone. How's that for your fucking advertising pipe. Watch that be whipped out when I end up doing a fucking KFC advert in about three years time. Could you go back to that episode? I can't remember which one it was, so you're going to have to check all of them from 2022. I'll read Michael, please delete it. Take the episode down, please. The colonel's called. Oh my dear. I just can't believe the days I've got. Oh, you know when you just, the thing about a COVID positive test, yeah, is the whole perception of what your life is for the next week suddenly changes as a moment. Do you know what I mean? You had zero to, basically any time for yourself as immediately evaporated.
Starting point is 00:16:59 Yeah, you're like, you had to delay this, because you had to go nip to the shops to get essentials because like you can't even just pop out for... You didn't have butter. So Rose can't, you know, have butter or milk? She can't have a normal spoonful of butter at luncheon. She's spoons in the butter, refreshes anti-vax theories and as a lie down. Because Josh has finished his call about Adam Hills' MBU. Yeah. Yeah, I'm so there. It was just like, come on. Just butter, just butter, anything else? No, I bought some other stuff also on the way. I was out, because I was out, I was like, I'm gonna buy some stuff, but bloody out.
Starting point is 00:17:32 It's just admin. I tell you what, though, I'll be honest with you, Rob. Go ahead. You've been really honest the person when they do the essential shop. Yeah. The essential shop is such a fucking win. What you're doing to child care? Rose is just going to have them while you're working. Well tomorrow I'm at home. So basically you're either working or baby. Yeah. So you're in or your... Baby. Yeah. So you're in the position where I've learned a lesson after the first last leg meeting.
Starting point is 00:18:10 Okay. Because I did the last leg meetings. You have so many meetings. It's like the fucking cabinet office, you guys. That's fucking Joe. I don't want to start Sue Gray inquiry about your fucking meetings. What goes on in there? You should see Alex brings a suitcase of wine to each meeting as well. It's unbelievable.
Starting point is 00:18:26 Another work event on Zoom. Party out on quick quiz. After the first one I needed the toilet, but I thought, I'll go downstairs. And then by the time you're downstairs, that's it, you're not going to the toilet. You're on duty. So basically when I finish this, when to check. Have I done all the emails I need to do today? Have I done all the toilet I need to do for the next two hours? Yes, you can't leave the room.
Starting point is 00:18:50 I need to get everything done before I go downstairs. So what's on your list? Emails, we, a shit, anything else? Yeah, like just answer a couple of WhatsApp, cancel that meeting, really sit and feel annoyed about the restaurant. You sound like Alan Partridge giving Lynn instructions. Can't all that meeting, WhatsApp? Gross, shit, let's go Lynn. Josh, can I ask you a question? Yeah. And you've got to be honest? Yeah. Yeah. Have you just sort of sat there and like read the internet for a bit and not gone down?
Starting point is 00:19:24 Or are you doing all legitimate work? Well I've got 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 to be to be the the to be the to be the the to be the the the to be the the the the their their their their their their the their their their their their their theirinic part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part part their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their to be like read the internet for a bit and not gone down or are you doing all legitimate work? Well, I've got to be honest. Yeah, I've more or less been so honest. Just you couldn't have be more honest today. Yes, I'm more or less finish the internet reading during the last leg meeting because I'm paying so little attention Okay, I think that's okay. You're allowed to sort of do a little bit of slight admin when there? the the the the the the the the the the the the th th th th so th so th so th so th so th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi thi thi thi tho. to to to to to thi to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to 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. to be. to be. to be. to be. to be. to be. th. th. th. the. the. tho. tho. thooooooooooooooooooo. to be to be to be to be too. to be to be that. You're allowed to sort of do a little bit of slight admin when there's someone talking about something that doesn't directly involve you. The thing is, also, that's what some meetings are for, isn't it? You've got to be across the news. So I've got to read all I can during that. You've got to readthe football on Saturday. Oh yeah how was that? We didn't I forgot to ask about that. It was a lot of fun. Yeah I mean I wouldn't describe it as top level facilities. They won six-nil didn't they? They did win six-nil yeah. But he's a bit rough and ready. Yeah I mean it's quite fun though. So like the players are at the end of the game the players go past you and they they they they they they the their. And they they their. they their. their. they. their. they they they they their. they they they their. their. they their. their their they they they they they they they're they're like. 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 they're they they they they they they they they they they they they they they're. they're. they're they're they're their. their their their their th. th. th. th. I th. I the. I the. I the. I the. I the. I the. I the. I the. I thee. I they're they're they're they're they're they're fived so... Oh, that's nice. Yeah, I'll send you a little photo. Did the kids like it?
Starting point is 00:20:25 Did they play? I mean, I would say they were basically just in a field. That was the thing. So is it no stands or anything like that? It's like to the the the theyl's they. There's one tho'e. there's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's thethe adults to do. And you can have a beer? You can have a beer, yeah. Ooh, that's fun, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:20:47 Is it walking distance from your house? No, it's not walking. They're currently based on Waltham Stokes, they're moving grounds. But it's, um, it's great. It's great. Is it? The amount of football shirts I thought my daughters will never wear is just a complete right off. I'm just giving up now and just buy one for me. How interesting football are they out of ten?
Starting point is 00:21:11 Do you know what? When they're on holiday, they're like kicking a ball and running around the garden and stuff, but not really, when the football's on they say which one are we? wea. Yeah, because then they get the football. When the football. When the football. When the football. When the football. When the football the football the football the football the football the football the football the football the football the football the football the football the football the football the football the football the football the football. the football is the football is the football is the football is the football is on the football is on. the football is the football is on the football is on the football is on the football is on the football is on. the football is on. the football is on. the football is on. the football is on the football is on the football is on the football is on. the football. the football. the football. the football. the football. the football. the football. the football. their. the. the. the. the. I. I. I, I, I, I, I, I, I'll, I'll, I'll, 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, the. the. I'm, the. the. the. the. Yeah. I don't know, whoever's winning. Yeah. And then because then I get the ump if the other one starts scoring. Yeah, yeah, of course. You don't care, why are you pretending to care? My eldest started Taekwondo though at school, which is quite funny. Yeah, that's quite good.
Starting point is 00:21:38 She's got a little uniform. It's hilarious. It's hilarious. It's so funny. She's got a massive big white dressing gown and it's too stiff. She don't like the belt, it's too hard. She keeps making me try and punch her so she can deflect it. She's quite good. My youngie's so just keeps punch me in the nuts, full pelt and laughing and running away, which isn't exceptional. Yeah, that's not Taekwondo, is it? Give me a chance here. There's a slight, there's a bit of a drama though at the school.
Starting point is 00:22:13 Do you want to hear the school drama? So the school, apparently some of the kids have been taking, there's a new, I think there's a new caterer at the school and they're doing really nice menus but they're a little bit like fancy. So it so some some some some some some some some some some some, so the the the the the the the the the th th. So, th. So, th th th. So, th. So, th. So, th. So, th. So, th. So, th. So, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thae, thae, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha.................... I, t.. I, t. I, t. I, ti. I, ti. I, ti. ti. ti. ti. ti. ti. ti. ty. tha, tha, tha, tha, tha.a.a.a.a.a.a.a.a.a.a.a.a.a.a.a. So, tha.a. So, t school and they're doing really nice menus but they're a little bit like fancy so it's like rather fish and chips it's sort of fish cake with with a deal mayonnaise. Yeah, yeah. And your kids don't want deal mayonnaise. Growing up's don't want deal. No, so basically I think some of the older kids have been like telling their parents and taking photos of some of the food like very, you know a bit harsh photos and then putting them online sending them to Sue Gray yeah doing it got but posting them on the internet like an look at my look at my lunch and what kind of thing and it's all just kicks off those emails going back and forth and it's great they're go we
Starting point is 00:22:57 off of this kind of thing but I'm sort of reading all the emails it's quite exciting but I do feel it's a bit harsh though because if you don't like the food, there is like a committee that has school lunch committee where if anyone's got any issues of the school lunch, you basically go to the committee or email the committee and they've basically gone straight online. It's probably like Dominic Cummins as like in charge of the ca the canteen. So I do think you should go to the school first. Yeah the food. The food. The food. The food. the food. the food's a bit fancy so I started asking my daughter what she's been eating I've worked out and she's had a jack of potato beans every day for about two months. It's like really fancy food or jack a potato and beans and I was like what did you actually go to check a potato and beans I'm not fair enough so yeah I think the food's decent I think it
Starting point is 00:23:38 might be a bit of drama and stuff and all that so that's been quite exciting a bit a bit a bit a bit a bit a bit a bit a bit a bit a bit a bit a bit a bit a bit that that that that that that that that's a that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's the that's the that's that's that's th f f f. the th. th. I's th. I's th. I's that's th. I's th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I's th. I's th. I's th. I's the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. th. I I I I I I th. I th. I th. I's th. I's th. I's th. I's th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. the. thi. I'm thi. I'm thi. I'm thi. I'm th. I'm that so that's that's been quite exciting. A bit of a bit of chat about that on the dad's WhatsApp groups. What are the dad's what's up groups like? Not bad actually, the banter's pretty strong. I play five-side football on a Sunday. Have I told you about this? No. So I've been playing that and which has been fun. But then I try to play again on a again again again again on again on again on again on again on the the the the the the the the the to play again on the the to play again on the the the to play again on the the... With them again? No with the comedians. I play comedians Tuesday, School Dad Sunday. Ellis James has been playing with the school dads as well.
Starting point is 00:24:08 Yeah, just what? As a ringer, we had it was a player down. Yeah as a ringer we had it was a player down and I try to play twice in a week and my body cannot play twice in a week. It literally shut down as I was playing the second game on the Tuesday and it is is is is is is is i. It is th. They they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they th. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I th. Yeah. I th. I th. Yeah. I th. Yeah. I th. I th. I th. I th.

I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th th thi. I was th th th th th th th th th th th th game on the Tuesday, it was embarrassing. They've got to do squad rotation with Rob Beckett. I'm like Ledley King. I've got the skills, but my knees just kept letting me down. I just got Ledley Kin such a niche reference, that I liked it. I was looking in my head for the right reference. I couldn't think of someone that was like that. Well, that was a great reference, but the problem is he is he is he is he is he is he is he is he is he is he is he is he is he is he is he is he is he is he is he is not the problem is he is not the problem is he is not the problem is not the problem is not the problem is not one, oh my god. Oh yeah. That would have just blown the roof off.
Starting point is 00:24:46 Yeah, they'd absolutely loved it. They might have considered the reference a bit mainstream. Fair enough, I'll say that. What they preferred like, Abou D'Arlo. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeahthat's what they're into. Oh, Al-Awe should say thank you for people coming to the live show as well. Yes, thank you. I think the slight tweaking we're going to do going forward, Josh is asked for questions directly off twitterrit rather than people putting their hand to drinking. It's a it's a quite a strong Hendoo vibe.
Starting point is 00:25:27 Yes. What did you think? Quite an interesting turn of events that are someone someone was there and their two month old was being looked after in Pizza Express around the corner. That was an astonishing decision. Yeah it was. A two month old baby. We found out who had the youngest child so we could praise or judge them and they had a the. It a a a a a a a a a the the their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their tho tho tho tho tho tho tho. It's tho. It's tho. It's tho. It's tho. It's tho. It's tho. It's tho. It's thoendo. It's thoendohend. It's thuendohend. It's thuendohend. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's the. It's the. It's the. It's the. It's the. It's te. It's quite te. It's quite the. It's quite the. It's quite the. It's quite te. It's quite te. It's quite the. It's te. It baby. We found out who had the youngest child, so he could praise or judge them. And they had a two-month-old round the corner in Pizza Express with the brother, not of the baby, the two-year-old. No, the brother of the mother. And he was looking after it while it was asleep, and then they a gamble isn't it you think the baby's gonna sleep for a whole show not a fucking chance sure no why and but they they went
Starting point is 00:26:07 but some of the questions towards the end I wouldn't say it was a sort of civilized Q&A whereas we lost control we lost control where at one point a woman finished a glass of proseco and shouted as your dog which is you know as a Q&A that's you know as a q thn a it's quite a dead-end question there. Yeah. You know, because my experience is with dogs. Either there's no news or there's the worst news. Because how's your dog? There's nothing to report or they're ill is basically. It's not like, oh, just gone to uni. There's no a way traveling. There's no other news after the dogs existing yeah and then if I have got news it's probably gonna be quite morbid so I'd say that is never a
Starting point is 00:26:48 good question no how's your dog for anyone ever but the good news is she was so how much you won't remember asking it oh no she knows you know it's a better? She will have the horrendous you know the sort of all morning, I'm a? morning after drinking anxiety oh I wonder if I said that I'm the the the the the the the the the the that oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh. the the the so the so the so the so the so the so that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the 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 tho. tho. that's that's th th. Oh yeah, I did. And they mentioned it on the podcast. Yeah. But thanks for coming though. It's been good fun that. It's been really enjoying it. It's been really fun. It's been really fun.

Starting point is 00:30:32 And it's a massive yeah if anyone has a chance to listen to the podcast parents in hell But this is a try to to the podcast parents in hell by the comedians and dads Josh Widakum I can't say his name get kids to try and say Josh Widdickham and they say it better that? I th. th. tham. th. thian. thian. thian. thian. that. that. their thir their thir thir that. their thi. their th. their th. their they's they's their their they's to their their their to to to their their their their their their their their their their their one. their one. their. their. their one their. their. their. their their. their their their their. their their their. their their their th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the. tod today today today today today today today today today today tho. tho. tho. they'reicum and they say it better than I can. I think she mispronounced it in Parliament so she got your name wrong Josh because they're parenting however the comedians and dads Josh Widdickam I can't say his name. Yeah, get kids to try and say Josh ridicule come and they can say it back than I can't. And Robb practiced it. It's a brilliant look and entertaining version of all the chaos that comes from real life parenting. It's a nice bit of my week to know that I'm part of a big club that is very dysfunctional. What the conservative party?
Starting point is 00:31:17 Yeah, fuck! Great business. What I loved about that most, you both did the same joke, but ruined it by shouting over each other. Yeah, that's exciting, isn't it? That's good. We know that a transition to parent is one of the greatest pressures on a relationship or a marriage. So you have to do better at stopping these sudden shocks and problems and problems and problems thocks and problems thocks, thoom, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, but, but, tho, tho, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, tho, tho, but, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, thi, thi, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, it I think she's just suggesting that she's she's acknowledging so who's who's Chaborn Bailey? Chavon in it? Well don't know how to pronounce her name mate.
Starting point is 00:31:51 Oh you catty bitch yeah she's the MP for Stroud oh oh well hello Chavon thank you for listening toory scum no she's pretty quite nice. She looks a bit like Sally Phillips. Well, they say what? They don't get too bogged down in politics here, Josh. But my thing is, right? With democracy, yeah, Tories get in, Tories, theyri's getting, labor, get in,
Starting point is 00:32:14 or whatever, that's normally how it works, right? And you vote forever you vote for you vote, you vote, you vote, you vote, whether or not you agree with the policies or not. The problem at the moment is no one's got any faith in them doing it, have they? That's my problem. Not the Tory, is the fact that the people doing it are just incompetent. Yeah, is that fair? Well, yeah, I think they have a lot of parties. I'm not talking myself out of a gig. Ha ha ha ha ha ha.
Starting point is 00:32:49 Ha ha ha. I think so much for our first date night as parents of two from the parents of the two-month-old in Peachter Express. Oh, this is from the parents of the two-month Peter Express. Wish we could have seen the second half but little one got grumpy. Must have been all the jazz. We suggested they were listening to jazz in the Pizza Express bar isn't it? It is a jazz bar. Okay do you want some Instagram's messages? Yes please on that. Yeah can you confirm there's been a lot of talk as to whether you are the traffic cone on the master master master master master master master master the mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass mass messages messages messages messages messages messages messages messages messages messages messages. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to.

Oh yeah, no I'm not, it's a massive wind-up.
Starting point is 00:33:30 Right. However, you would say that wouldn't you. Well, that's, I mean, that is a good argument. But what has happened, I mean, you can believe me or not. to believe paid even though I didn't do it and it wasn't me but I did get a message off the traffic code and telling me to stop doing it because he was getting the um did you yeah so who is it? I can't tell you oh my God why do people think it was you is there any evidence, that's the point. Is there any evidence that it's you beyond
Starting point is 00:34:06 you saying it's you? No, people said it was me and then I just jumped on it and then went. Oh, I just went, oh, I just tweak. Oh, thrown. Oh, thrown. Oh, there course. She shouldn't be doing that. Or she, we've got. Oh God, oh God. Yeah, so I'm not traffic code. No, okay, good. Any more Instagrams? Yes, here we go. Duh, here we go.
Starting point is 00:34:32 Oh, this is a bit of advice for you try for a baby. Falling pregnant and having our first born Amy, Joel and Lewis. Now six months old, not to the throw, but it's our reference point for me when someone can't understand his name. Like I did. I got it wrong. It's Louis, not Louis. Yeah. Like Josh, our baby would happily sit in his car for a today. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the th. th. th. th. the th. th. th. their, th. too. too. to be. to be, to be, too. their, to be, to be, to to to to to to their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, th. We, th. We, th. We, th. We, th. We, th. We, th. We, th. We, th. We'll, th. We'll, their, their, their, their, their, tho. We're, thoooooooooooom. We're, tooomorrow, tooomorrow, their, their, their, their, the while in the morning but would get bored. So I brought a cheap night sky projector that I can control completely through an app, so I don't have to get out of bed. Usually it buys an extra 30 minutes. So once they wake up, stick that on. And they're like, older, what's going on?
Starting point is 00:35:13 And they're like, older, what's going the podcast. This is from GKB92. Sounds a bit, sounds like some sort of far eye group, that. Um, I have a four-year-old and a baby who is 12 weeks. I breastfed and rather than buying breast pads, I have breast cups that collect any milk that leaks. The other day I took one out to feed the baby. The cat then jumped up and started to drink from the cup. Oh my god, oh my god, interspecies. I quickly got him to stop and since then the cat has not left my side. Oh my word. Probably waiting for his next opportunity.
Starting point is 00:35:54 Oh my word. God. That was interesting at the podcast last night. Carl Donnellys was saying his wife still breastfeeds and the baby's 19 months and there was a lady in the audience who said she breastfed she the baby was two years old. We'd love to hear the oldest breastfed kid. Yes because I think we're getting to the end of breastfeeding Rob. Really? Okay what's that nine months? Nine months? It's a good old stint. We're coming to the end of it. I think I've got three and a half minutes off Busy house, busy house. Ain't done me no arm. He says by a beer bean, chicken. Right, I've got another one for it, what we got here.
Starting point is 00:36:29 Oh, here we go. I just listened to the latest episode where Josh's daughter made friends with a butternut squash and thought I'd send a message about my daughter and her potato friends. This is when you had a button out From the moment she could walk around nine months, my kids were nine months, is yours any close to walking at nine, nine months? Uh, no. That is the earliest they can walk and it's whole awful. Yeah, no he's very close to crawling. Okay. The moment she could walk from around nine months. My daughter was obsessed with our
Starting point is 00:37:00 veg rack but specifically the potatoes She would carry them around and play with them. From this moment, we couldn't get to eat any form of potato. Chips, mash, roasties. She wouldn't eat any of them as if the potatoes had feelings. Oh, God. And what, what a vegetable to lose from the rotation? Do you know what I mean? I mean, it's great if that because the potatoes had feelings. This month, age two and two months, she has finally decided that chips are okay.
Starting point is 00:37:30 Oh, that's good. Because I don't know why she's a, she's just decided in her head. Could I just say when you said obsessed with our vedraq, it did sound like a thoved in it. Yeah, it sounded like a knobbed in it, in it, inturnip cock. Sorry. Do you know what? When we went for our, what my walk, just to get supplies, and my daughter saw a turnip for the first time and burst out laughing, she couldn't believe it existed? Well, a turnip? Yeah, she was like, what's this? Oh, God, they are mad. And she was just, she absolutely pissed herself of the turnip and she just couldn't... She absolutely pissed herself at the existence of a turnip. A turnip, isn't a turnip like a mad bastard parsnip?
Starting point is 00:38:08 Yeah, it's crap, it's like purple and white. It's so shit. I hate root vegetables. There you go, I've said it. Really? Okay, wow. Big nose. That's not root though, is it? Yeah, it's in the ground. But what I'm the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. It's that's thate. It's thatoue. It's, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, th. th. th. that. that. that. thirt. thirt. thirt. thirt. thirt. thirt. It's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like,ing about is your parsnips, your Swedes, your turnips. But we're a bit of honey on there, right, mate. You cooked carrots, not for me. Not for me. Not for me. Not for me.
Starting point is 00:38:32 Not for me. Oh, I've got a good thing I don't care about, someone sent me. Oh, go on. The thing I don't care about, the things that people don't care about. He sent me a, um, let me just find it. Why do you find that? Can I tell you about Philadelphia? You know the sports stadiums we spoke about? Yeah, where they had like a big bar in the middle where everyone got pissed and then they had like a basketball, American football, ice hockey all around it. They also had a building, which I couldn't work out what it was, and then someone's emailed in. I'm in, I, get him chuck him in there and immediately give him like community service or whatever. Oh my God. You come home from the match with a prison sentence.
Starting point is 00:39:12 You hadn't even, it's like 6 p.m. It's just expedited to get it done quick. So basically they just nick them and while they're there, process them. the game's on, they just process them. My friend said, things I don't have an opinion on, he sent me this, Rob. If you have a look at that, it's a screen grab and it says, how's your booking experience? And he's put things I don't have an opinion on, the online booking experience of the vet. Oh yeah, or when you go from security at the airport, how's your experience? I don't want to tell you. Totally. Or the worst, rate this WhatsApp call.
Starting point is 00:39:45 Couldn't give a fuck, mate. Do you know what I don't that annoys me? It's when your computer or your PlayStation goes, this system was unexpectedly turned off. I was like, no it weren't. I knew what I was doing. What do you have a fucking briefing call you before I'm doing? And then you do it again, no it again, no it again, no it again, no it again, no it again, no it again, th again, th again, th again, th again, th again, th again, tho tho tho tho tho tho, thi thi, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, their thi, their their, their, their, their, their, tho, I'm tho, I'm tho, I'm their, I'm their, I'm their, I'm their, I'm their, I'm their, I'm their, I's, I's, I's, I's, I before I turn this fucking machine off. It's not unexpected. I knew what I was doing. And then you do it again and again, it slowly makes your computer as slow as this piece
Starting point is 00:40:08 of shit that I'm recording on. Have you got your new one yet? Well that's the thing Rob, it arrived today. The chances of me setting that up in the next week are a million the hallway. Pristine. Absolutely no chance of that box being opened. Absolutely pristine. Rolls Royce of computers. To do everything you need to... Ironically, you would make everything you've done in the day quicker,
Starting point is 00:40:33 but that hour of setting it up cannot be found. No. Imagine that, Rose, you're right with the kids. I'm just going to go all the things I need to the cloud and get rid of a few apps so I don't put too much on there and then I'll be down for dinner. Josh, this is, I will do this one then small business shoutouts. I've got a great one here. This is going to make reading when your kids much more fun. So I was talking about the Biff Chip and Kipper books. Yes. Yeah. th. th. th. th, th, th, th, th, th, th, the books, th, th, th, th, the books, th, th, th, the books, th, th, the books, th, th, and th, and th, and th, and th, and th, and th, and th- th- th- th- th- th- th- th- th- tho, and th, and th, and th, and th, and th, and th, and th, and th, and th, and th, and th, and th, and th, and th, and th, and th, and the, and the, and the the the the the the their, and their, and their, and their-a, and th, and thr-s, and thr-s, and thr-s, and thean, and thean, and thean, and thean, and thi. So, and thi, and thi, listen to your latest podcast, as always. I was laughing like a madman whilst walking the dog.
Starting point is 00:41:07 Rob mentioned the awful Biff, Chip and Kipper books. Cool, brutal from Jody and Jersey. Biff chip and kipper books. And I remember having to read them with my kids when they were younger. To make this tedious task a bit more bearable, I used to look for the intention, but there was always a creepy-looking guy popping his head over a war at their children, and in one case threw a little peep hole in the fence. It used to freak me out. And I just looked at this, she's told me to do it. If you Google, Biff, Chip, and Kippa hidden messages, there are some hilarious examples, like a priest with a pervy grin in the ta train, train, tree, tree, t his dog. What? On my life, so I've googled it, I found it,
Starting point is 00:41:48 I've seen it here, Hepatitis spelled out in a school ground this one, but there's like pervy priest looking in the thing, a woman is literally selling ease at a market like a sort of hippie-looking lady. We'll put them on our Instagram won't we Rob. David Cameron's in one of the the the the the thing. Is. Is. It's, it. It's, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it, it, it, i's, i's, i's, i's, i's, is. th. tho, is. tho, is. tho, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi, to. to. too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, tooooo, tooooooooooo, to-I's, so ie-looking lady. We'll put them on our Instagram, won't we, Rob? David Cameron's in one of them. Is he? It's like a knockoff version of The Simpsons. Probably listen to this podcast with the audience we've got. Oh, yes. Have you seen David Cameron this week, Robbent.
Starting point is 00:42:13 Have you seen that photo of David Cameron? well. They've got Margaret Thatcher in it. Bloody yeah. Jeremy Beedles in one. Oh wow here we go. Anyway it's brilliant you say if you if you put it into there there's loads of funny stuff on there but we can share some. The toothpaste spells our anal. What? They're mad bastards. Anyway that'll kill 20 minutes when you're waiting for the school kids to come out at the gates. Right got one, Rob. I've got one. SBS? Yes, I've got it here, because they got in touch with Rose, which I always say is a good way of getting in. Oh yeah, if you want to get to me, go through Lou, I've got, I don't reply to anything, I'm terrible.
Starting point is 00:42:57 No, exactly. Hi, lads. beginning. Hearing about the hell you both regularly go through really does make us very happy indeed. Is there any chance of a small business shout-out? We started the handprint carving company after the birth of our first child Gabriel. We wanted something special to remind us of what he was like when he was brand new. The handprint carving company takes clay impression of your child's hands and feet and cars them in solid oak. This means that their the hands come out 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 th. th. th. th. th. th. th. their their thr-pran. their their their their their. their their. their their. their their print print print print print print print print print print print print print print print print print print. their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their th. th.

This means that their hands come out of the oak so you can actually feel the contours and the details. It's beautiful. Oh, that's quite nice actually. I was suspicious. I'll be honest with you, I'll be honest with you, I'll be honest with you, I'll be honest with you, I'll be honest with you, I'll be honest. to be a lot of it, I'll be a lot of it, it's a, it, I'll, it, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I, I'll, I, I, I, I'll, I'll, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I'll, I, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'm, I'm, th, I'm, I'll, 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'm, I, I'm, 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'm, I'm, th..

Starting point is 00:43:46 out the car but the one that goes in is nice because it looks I quite like I think it's quite nice actually and I'm not into like Lou did a professional photo shoot the girls and I said you can do it I'm having no input whatsoever and they look they look they look the girls the girls look girls the girls the girls the girls lins. You'll only do a professional photo shoot with Romesh. That's the only one who's doing a professional photo shoot in this house is me, okay? No, it looks really good actually. It's quite a cute thing to have and it doesn't look. What I find is anything that's like a nice moment of your kid, normally either looks creepy or cringe. This actually looks like quite a nice thing to have in the house. There we go. W.W.W.W.W. Handprint carving.com and type the code,

Ooh, is the brown and pink one. There we go. Here we go, this is a good small business shout-out.
