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, hoa' they're not coping. So, and we'll also be hearing from you, the listener with your tipses, tips, tips, with your tips, with your tips, with your tips, tips, with your tip, with your tip, tip, with your tip, with your tipes, with your tipes, with your tipes, with your tipes, tipes, with your tri- trials, the trials, trials, thi, 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 their, their, their, their their tri-a, tri-a, tri-a, tri-a, tri-a, trials, trials, trials, trials, trials, trials, their trials, trials, trials, trials, trials, trials, trials, trials, to to trials how they're coping.

Starting point is 00:01:11 Because let's be honest, there are plenty of times where none of us know what we're doing. Hello you're listening to Parenting Hill with... Hey Kit. Can you say Rub Beckett? Bob Beckett. And can you say, Josh Whitticum. Oh, that was a... I mean... Josh Dickleum? Yeah, come on.

Starting point is 00:01:54 Who's that? Hors Dickermon. One of my favorite German footballers. Hello guys. I'm Claire and I'm originally from Oz and now live in the Barbican in central London. That's what I was going to say actually but you didn't ask me. Oh God I'm sorry. I was going to say Australian Brisbane probably and now at the Barb- they live in the Barbican you... I'm not going to make this all London-centric and about the different areas of London, but fucking out is a central bit of London to live in isn't it's a a big sort of like mad metropolis but it's a bit I think it's very much personally no offense I couldn't think of somewhere worse to live
Starting point is 00:02:27 however no offense but but it is very cool and very London I imagine if you're from Australia it's like me wanting to live next to the Sydney Opera house yeah they're really cool and quirky flats and it's brutalist architecture but it's very much you've got to be into that vibe is there much brutalist architecture in Sydney, Rob? No, there is an in Sydney, however, I was due to be brought up in a tiny council estate in Woolage, which was very much similar to that. However, we didn't in the end because of my dad's work. Oh God. I don't know what's going on, Ralph. My dad did better at work than expected and they managed to move us to a nice bit
Starting point is 00:03:05 of South East London, no offence, Woolage. Wasn't he a cabbie? Let's get bogged down in my dad's work arrangements at that time. Okay. Okay. Let's not, let's not do that, okay. Anyway, Barbican is very cool and tridling. And it's the kind of of of of of of of of of of of of of of of of of of that of of of of that of of that that that that of of that that that tha that tha tha thi thi thi thi thi thi, that that that that that that. thi. that to to to to to to to to to to to to th. th. th. th. th. thoes the the the the the the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th th. th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th that. that. that that that that that that that that that that that that to to to to to to to that to to that to that And it's the kind of place that Claire lives with her partner and her daughter Freya 7 and Sun Kit too. Kit has provided the attached dodgy intro for you.
Starting point is 00:03:32 Have you googled the Barbican. Well, I've driven through the Barbican. But there's a big bit in the middle of a little lake and stuff and it looks like sort of like the Olympic like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like the Olympic Olympic Olympic Olympic Olympic Olympic Olympic Olympic Olympic Olympic Olympic Olympic Olympic Olympic Olympic Olympic Olympic Olympic Olympic Olympic Olympic Olympic Olympic Olympic Olympic the o o o' Oh, I see. Oh, wow. Yeah, it's amazing. Bloody out! What is that in London? Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's the Barbican flats. That looks like something in Dubai. So they've got one in Thamesmead that's sort of a similar style, like brutalist architecture, and it was supposed to be like the future of metropolitan living. However, Thamesmede is a bit ruffer and it just turned into like loads of little, you know, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, them, them, them, them, them, them, them, them, them, them, them, them, them, them, thi, thi, thi, them, thi, them, them, them, thi, thi, them, them, them, them, them, them, them, them, them, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th an th, th an th an thi, thi, thi, thi, than, than, than, than, than, than, than, theean, looks thanks, looks like thanks, looks like thanks, looks like thanks, looks like th police could never catch anyone that was being naughty because it's so confusing it's not like normal streets. Rob how much we've been talking to your children recently? Why? Because you just described criminals as being naughty. Well they are not they're the naughtiest boys and girls. In many ways
Starting point is 00:04:17 jail is the ultimate naughty step isn't it? Can you imagine the pom-pom jars in prison? Empty just full of sugar water just in case. She adds, I have been feeling a bit guilty ever since you guys were talking about the youngest you've tried taking kids to the football. We took our kids to Anfield with Freya, well she was four years old. Kip was one month old. Oh my god, that is far too young, isn't it? Yeah, our daughter wanted to leg it as soon as they reached a crescendo to never walk alone. Oh yeah, I find it a bit
Starting point is 00:04:49 much as well. But the baby happily slept through the entire game, including the two goals scored by Liverpool who beat Wolves 2-0. They haven't been back since. Please don't parent shame us too harshly. I've got a good story about a baby in a baby and a baby and a baby and a baby and thapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapap. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th.

Put it on your, um, I've seen pictures on your Instagram. Oh, fair enough. Anyway, so we went and met Samantha Barks.
Starting point is 00:05:16 they tell us the story. said it. Smet's Barks. I don't know why I say it like that. Samantha Barks. I think saying that she barks is almost like a... about a singer. Yeah, she doesn't bark. She sings so sweetly. Oh, she's beautiful. She's beautiful. She's beautiful at singing.
Starting point is 00:05:35 She's got a really weird mood, Josh. I'm in a combined with very little sleep because I had a horrendous day at work yesterday. I'll explain that later. Can I just ask who's holding the boxing pads? Lou, the mate who does boxing with, he does the pads. Lou does it with him as well and then does boxing. A bit of fun.

That sort of 1970s implied that my wife's having sexual relations with a boxing trainer which actually is a bit
Starting point is 00:06:08 outdated and probably sexist. Who are Mrs? New Shoes Vicar? New Shoes vicar? New Shoes vicar? New shoes vicar? what's more tea vicar then? It's just like a phrase you say, isn't it? We 83? Ha ha ha ha ha! New shoes, vicar? Is it's a new vicar? Is it's a new vicar?
Starting point is 00:06:32 Is it's a sayn'a? You can't that's a thr you're just just just fart. Yes, a new shoes I think maybe the noise. There's other ones pistols a pudding you've heard of that one haven't you? Someone's on Google. Pistas no no pistols a pudding is one because he's got alcohol in.

Starting point is 00:07:09 He went in, I think, with the four-year-old, and then his wife or partner, I don't know the mar a body shame Roberto Femino, but... Is teeth your body? I don't know. I don't know. He's got a lovely body. Look at those teeth. He's got an incredible body, but his teeth are comical. His body means his body's great. Josh I'm all over the place here. Yeah.

Yeah, but it's quite likely to. We did those early ones to make sure that we could do a show and it's a really good show, and it'll be even bigger. they couldn't come so I think it will pretty much sell out quite quickly so yeah I start to main list getting quick and and then yeah I can't wait to do them Josh they're gonna be amazing I don't want to pin too much about the

Oh, I'd love to ask you. Because we're recording this the day before Valentine's Day. Let's just ask what your Valentine's plans are, Rob. Okay, I ordered Lou some flowers on a delivery service about three months ago just to get a slot in and I haven't got a card or a... I don't want to hear about your private life Rob. More shoes, Vicka! And me and Lou had a conversation this morning amongst the very busy, stressful day, I said, I can't make for Valentine's what we're doing. She went, well I haven't got you a card or a present and I went ditto.
Starting point is 00:09:35 But I've got the surprise for hours coming. Oh nice. Rose sent me a link to a bag, Rob for Valentine's Day. It's a bit presumptuous in it? Well it is Rob because I would say it was 60 times what I'm willing to spend. A 60 pound bag. It's unbelievable the price of stuff these days. Because we've got no life Rob. We've got an at home you know those restaurant boxes you get? Oh yeah the sad fuck dinner. Oh yeah the sad fuck dinner. Josh yesterday right I got back last night I did a gig in Cheltenham on Friday night and then last night the gig was in Lower Stoft. Oh mate. Do you how long it takes to drive from Cheltenham's Lower Stoughed. I'd say five
Starting point is 00:10:17 hours. Yes it does. Four and a half to five hours. Oh my god. What an incredible pointless knowledge of the British geography I have. Didn't go on one motorway, 220 miles. Oh mate. A roads all the way. Get your confidence up, Rob. I think you're ready to drive on a motorway. And then there was a one! And then there was a one!
Starting point is 00:10:34 I even got up in Cheltenham, check the trains. Guess the t lower stuff. Oh God. I imagine you have to go into London and out, don't you? Yes, 11 hours. Oh my God. 11 hours, seven changes. Rob, do you know what my tour itinery is next week? Yep. Edinburgh to Cardiff. The next day? What day you're doing in Edinburgh? Sunday? And in Monday's Cardiff? Yeah. So my tour manager was flying, just like in terms of his loving life. He's not off his head on speed? No, no. He's flying. I don't know how he's getting there. But I don't really like those short flights. They stress me out and I find it. It actually takes up the whole day. Why don't you just fly to Amsterdam change and come back in if you want to be in the air tap. tap. train. train. train. train. to be in train. to be in the air to be in the air. the air. the air. the air the air. the air. to be the air to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be in the air the air to be to be to to to to to to to to to to to th. th. th. hea. he a he a he a th. th. th. th.

Starting point is 00:11:26 Why would you do that? I don't like, I don't like internal flights if I can afford. I don't really like... Who doesn't like shorter flights? I don't really like those small planes, they freak me out. You don't like flying. Is there a direct flight from Edinburgh to Cardiff? Yeah. You are clinically insane. If you come in there moaning you're tired again. I'm not, I'm looking forward to it. Probably I've got seven hours on my own on a train. No, I don't like that. Seven hours! Yeah, that's not a good thing. I'm finally going to get to finish that fucking Beatles documentary. Yeah, but if you flew th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th.

There's no structure. There's no trucature. It's no jazz.
Starting point is 00:12:52 Michael, come back. Bada-ba-ba-o-chip-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa. Go on, Josh. Oh right, so I'll put a pin in my Maisie Adamanic boat. No, no, no, I'll tell, I'll tell, I'll th-I was telling you about. So she left so in the break there was a moment oh and get this. I finished a fucking story! It's part of the story it's part of the story. Oh my god it's like black mirror. Rose had got a babysitter to go and watch Ed Gamble at Howie the Empire because it was Matthew Crosby's birthday and a few of them were going to watch Ed Gamble. No, Fed said, terrible birthday.
Starting point is 00:13:27 I know, I wasn't, I wasn't totally gutted that I was in Eastpool Rob. But I tell you what was slightly galling. I've been on tour two years, she hasn't been to see it. Oh my god, so she's seen Gamble before you. She's got a babysit to see Gamble about the second week of his tour hasn't seen my show. Anyway, Lou sees me once every three years. What about performing? Oh God! Shoot me in the head! What happened in Eastbourne? So I was just sat in Eastbourne at 9pm in the dressing room on my own, reading a match report on the Guardian that I'd already read on the BBC. Having a cup of tea and I thought, it's 9 p.m. on a Saturday night. What the fuck is going on in my life? That I'm sat sober alone in Eastbourne looking at my phone at 9 p.m. on a Saturday night.
Starting point is 00:14:21 Yeah, but you were doing a gig. You didn't just go there for that. No, I know, but there was just a moment of realization where I was like, yeah, what am I doing? You're bringing joy to tens of people. Josh? Do you know what Rob? Have you got my lost to? Is it too much? No, do you know what? It does bring back a bad memory? No, I do you know what? It does bring back a bad memory? It's th. What? What? What? What? What? What? It's? What? It's? th? What? What? th? What? th? What? What th? What th? What th? What th? What th? What th? What th?

No, do you know what? It does bring back a bad memory because one of the reasons Eastbourne was nice because it was the toll was the lowest moment of my touring career.
Starting point is 00:14:58 Oh, why? Because it was the least percentage I'd ever sold in a venue. Oh, really? It felt like thaaaa tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha th time. Did you sell it out this time? Yeah. Oh that's good. And last time it was 600 in a 1,600. Oh so I was really scratching at a scab there? Yeah. And it was, do you know the worst thing? What? The venue were like, no we're going to let people sit in the seats they bought, we're not going to make them all come down to the bottom. So they're going to be dotted around the whole venue. Like it was social distancing before social distancing. But you've got to show them, you know, that's how it works when you're touring. When you're first starting places you do well and then they come back. It's good, it's going that way rather than the other way. Oh, it felt like a po positive ppic p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p.

I'd watch the game in the same room. What venue you're doing in Cardiff? St. Davis Hall. That's got a bed in it, the dressing room.
Starting point is 00:15:50 It has got a bed in it, Rob. When there's a bed in a dressing room, I just sort of think, what's happened in that bed? What dirty pantomime fuckfest is happened in the final night of the run? Jack and his beanstalk just spraying magic beans everywhere. The socially distant sports bar, Ellis James and Mike Bubbins, I mean come at some kind of shagg fest.

Because I just offence lower stoft, a Mexican in lower stoft. This was about 2013 as well. They literally acted like- Oh yes, full of Mexicans now. I couldn't move to Mexican. It was like, you know that Chinatown in? We had Mexican town.
Starting point is 00:17:15 No, the reason I'm saying it was 2013. Yeah. The owner acted like J. Lowe had walked in. It was incredible. And what? Because you guys have done a bit of tele? Yeah. Oh wow. It was probably the most I've ever felt like a superstar when I went to that Mexican and Lower Stoft. And the least I've ever felt was last night backstage and Eastbourne. Oh mate, never mind. Never mind. We've made it though. We've made it back to back to the podcast it back back back back back back back back back back back back back back back back back back back back back back back back back back back back back back back the podcast back the podcast back the podcast back the podcast back the podcast back the podcast back the podcast back the podcast back looking after my kids as well as this tour. Have you? Yeah, not as much as Lou has, to be fair. I've got a bit of a bone to pick though with Air Thrill, Catford.
Starting point is 00:17:48 What the hell is Air Thrill, Catford? Well, it's like some sort of like kids, like, it's like, soft play, like, Lou booked it, told them we go in air for all they're all excited we're showing pictures on the internet two hours before we get there like speak like inflatable slides and all that kind of stuff two hours before we go get a phone call I know yeah sorry we've can't canceling your session what they'd overbooked no that's bollucks in it I can take it if I get canceled if I get canceled I need to pay him a mortgage I to to to to to 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 to their their to their to their their to their their their their their to their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their to to to to to to to to to to to to get a new cult audience. I've spoke to you about this. But I can take it if something I'm doing, the plans change. But a child's plans are so set in stone in their head.
Starting point is 00:18:34 My poor sister-in-law, she was already at the McDonald's next door with her daughter. What? Wait in? Because took him air jump instead. Air jump? Air jump? I've got a problem with air jump as well. Like, I know we're try and big up places, but also I think we should tell when people are arso. So air thre. So air thre. So air thre. You're in my bad book. Otherwise we're not going to get all that good treatment that that that that that that that that that that that be treated as well, just if people are listening. No one's been treated well when you're on a trampoline park with your kids, you're surviving the day before you get home and hopefully they sleep. Anyway, so you know these trampoline parks,
Starting point is 00:19:13 right? I don't know where you'd run to. Anyway, so you know all these different trampoline parks. Basically, you have to buy a pair of their socks, which I totally get. What? I like when you go bowling? Yeah, but basically you buy a pair. You get in, they give in, they give you a pair of socks that. And underneath they've got like sticky stuffy stuff, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, their, their, their, their, their, their, too, their, too, too, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their their their, their their their their their, their, their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their, their. their, tap, tape, tape, tape, tape, tape, tape, tape, tape, tape, tape, tape, tape, tape, tape, tape,'s for safety. I totally get that, and underneath is sort of like rubbery stuff so you don't slip over, okay?
Starting point is 00:19:47 So we've got a big draw full of all different trampoline socks, one for air jump, one for like, whatever it's called, the other place we go to. Anyway, Lou gru try to the tape.geois. So, so. So. So. that you. the th. than, tha. thea. thea, thea, the-a, the-s. the-s, the-s, the the their. their their their their their thr-s, their their their, so their, so their, so their, so their, so their, their, their, their, their, their.

It's like a neck pillow when you go on holiday. Yeah, exactly. Anyway, so Lou turns up at Airjump with the kids and she's got like jump park socks from another place and then oh sorry you can't wear them. Oh come on. They're not official air jump ones but they are fucking, they're fucking trampoline socks, they know they're trampoline socks but it's a fucking. trapoline. trapoline. trapoline. trapoline. their their trapoline. their trapolome.

Yeah, that is, oh, I'd be livid. I'd be absolutely human.
Starting point is 00:20:28 I don't think that's okay. I get they've got all the insurance and stuff. The socks don't come into the insurance, surely. No, I totally somewhere just with a different logo on. Yeah, I'm sorry I'm still obsessing over the fact you've got a draw of trampoline socks. I've got a draw trampoline socks. You have so much space in zone five. It's incredible. I've got a draw for trampoline socks. I've got a drawrown draw to draw the draw the of the space you'd have for the trampoline tops. If we had trampoline soaps, we'd have to throw them straight out
Starting point is 00:21:06 because we just haven't got the space. We'd have to buy them new every time. That's how tight it is in East London. Disposable living.

I've not had a great week, to be honest, Josh. My nickname, I've realized from my daughters. He, big belly. Big belly? Big belly.
Starting point is 00:22:15 Big belly dad, which is not ideal, To them I have, they're tiny. My belly's much bigger in theirs. The dog was ill, under and 50 quid antibiotics, keeps having liquid shit. Oh God, have you got it insured, Rob? Loo's got it insured. You've got to insure your pets. I will bet you, though, Lou will not send that letter to the insurance to claim it back. I guarantee you that will sit in a draw, that's th and that's that's th and that's th and it, th and it, th and it, th and it, th and it, th and it, th and it, th and it, thi thi thi thi thi, thi, thi, thi, thi thi thi thi thi thi thi' thi' thi' thi' thi' thi' thi' thi' thi' thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi, thi, thi thi thi thi thi ti tip, keeps tip, keeps tip, keeps tipe tipe tipe tipe tipe tipe tipe tipe tipe keeps keeps keeps tipe know what, I'm going to say it. Once she's paid the excess, this is how the insurance gets you. Every time you do something, it's like,
Starting point is 00:22:48 yeah, but once you paid the excess and then it'll affect your rate, is it worth claiming it? And you're like, well, what's the fucking point? And also, I do I do I I I I think, I think, I think, I think, I think, I think, I think, I think, I the dog, I think, I the dog, I do think, I do think, I do think, I do think, I do think, I do the dog, I do the dog, I do the dog, I do the dog, I do the the the the the the the the thi, I the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th... th. th. th. that, that, that, that, that, to. tooo. too., to., to., to., to. to. to. to. tho. tho. tho.. I heard a scream from downstairs. I thought we were being like burgled or attacked and he went, Fred's not eating his breakfast. And I was like, do you know how less of a shit I give? How little I care about that dog. And you know she was stressed because the dog normally wharfs down the breakfast absolutely allows it but didn't want it because he's got a dicky tummy. Um right so this is something else I want to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the to the to the to the the to the to be. the the the the the the to be. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the their.

I did 10 shows in 12 days, I mentioned it last time, right?
Starting point is 00:23:29 And the last one was in Dartford, and the last one was in Dartford, the last one, I've, felt fine with myself, burst into tears, right? But like, like, the the, like that for about seven seconds and it went and I was normal again. Seven seconds of what? Sorry. What was that? What's that? What's that? That's just emotion coming out, right? Just relief? Suppressed emotion that you...
Starting point is 00:23:57 I got through it, maybe, like I was tired. Yeah, exactly. That's not normal, is it? No, do you know what's the weird bit? What? Is that it ended? Like, the burst into tears, I kind of buy that. Yeah. The fact that after seven seconds you were like, that'll do. That's the weird bit. But I had no, because I was like, and it was like, and then much for me, and I burst into tears, which has been known to happen.
Starting point is 00:24:25 When did that last happen? I don't know, it happens about once every three or four months, I'd say. I don't know what I'm laughing, it's just funny though, isn't it? Rose describes it as a trademark freakout. A trademark for a classic explosion. Yeah, but it'll last a good few minutes, thr? Yeah, because that's what happens with crying, but to cry for seven seconds is, I'd say, psychopathic behavior. And then just recover, like Ted Bundy. Yeah, just like, absolutely fine though,
Starting point is 00:24:54 I don't worry about it. Yeah, that'll do. Because I have that before, where you get to, where like, somethings, you know, oh my God, and that can get me because I'm sad but I didn't even feel sad it was just like a I think it was a tough gig as well that last one because there was a lot of drunk people and stuff heckle. Yeah, I think it's just been a release and like oh I can't try and try and they're heckle and I'm not getting the gigs getting getting getting getting getting getting getting getting getting getting getting to get to get the ga the to get the th.. th. th.

Do you want to run through your week? First? Should I run through my week and then we'll end on modern things? Yeah, let's run for your week and then we'll do thrown things? Well, because you could see because it's got the, you know the squared paper you used to get in math books that you'd only get, yeah, this is one of the pages I've just sent to you there. Right, so all I've seen so far is one, you're very good at joined up writing. Well that's actually better than my current town writing. Okay, so so. So, so it, so it, so it, so it, so it, so it, so it, so it, so it, so it, so it, so it, so it, so it, so it, so it, so it, so it's, so it's th. So it's th.

So this is a list of people you fancy done on maths paper? Yeah. Nothing screens virgin more than this. Well, do what Rob? I'm willing to admit at the age of 11, I was a virgin. I'm quite happy to admit
Starting point is 00:26:36 that. Oh, I was fucking mate. Okay, right. Well, let's look at this. So you were a virgin fair enough to the virgin, I'm a very, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was th, I was, I was th, I was th, I was, I'm th, I'm th, I'm th, I'm th, I'm thi, thi, thi, tho, tho, thi, thi, thi, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, nothing, nothing. thi, nothing. thi, nothing. thi, nothing. th, nothing. th, nothing. th, nothing. th, nothing. th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. thi's thiiiiiiiiiiii's thiiiii's thi's thi. thi. thi, nothing, nothing a virgin at 11, fair enough, I think most people were, I certainly was. Actually the start of my journey of being a virgin from totally, and they said, quite a long road to a sex man. I was really digging my heels in. I was really getting comfy. It definitely weren't the last mile of my virginity. I'm tell that, this is amazing. So you've got Josh Winnockham, it's signed by Josh Winnockham at the bottom and you've got Danny Bear, number one. I think that's a great choice. This is not 90s. Cindy Crawford. Very much of the
Starting point is 00:27:12 time. Yep. Who's zoos? I don't know what zoos is. Oh, I think I know been looking at that all week wondering what that means and I've it suddenly came to me did you have an amiga Rob no I didn't you're a little bit older me yeah so there was a game called Zool and which is like the amigas version of Mario like a kind of platform game yeah I'm just gonna send you a picture here so you see that character on the right okay so it looks like an ant with armor on. It's an ant. You fancy a woman ant? It's a cartoon female ant. It's a cartoon female ant. Rob. I'd say she's quite a fit actually. I'm not into it now but I could see why you might like it. Yeah. It was a cartoon female ant a bit Jessica rabbit vibes. I'd say Jessica Rabbit is prettier. To say I wasn't cool. The third person I fancied was a cartoon ant from a sequel, Zool 2,
Starting point is 00:28:07 to a game on the Amiga, not even the coolest game system at the time. What I'd say is 11-year-old Josh Widdockham, I don't think you could handle Danny Bear and Cindy Crawford? Do you know what? I don't think Ryan Giggs was looking over his shoulder. I think Zul would be a better entry point for you. And is, 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 th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, th, th, thin, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the to the the the the th, th, the the th, th, thin, to say to say to say to to to say to to to say to to to to to the the the the the thin, the thin, the to the to better entry point for you and is the name Zoos from Zools? Zoo's. Okay so you jump into the animated world of female ants and now it's back to Claudia Schiffer. Yeah, very much a cliche there. But yeah I think what you've done there is you're too embarrassed to admit you fancy the computer ant and you've just put round them traditional women you should fancy at that stage. It's. It. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's the th. It's th. It's the th. It's th. th. th. the th. th. the th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi, thi, thi, ththa. thi, the, the. the. the. th. th. th. the, the. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the, the, the, th. the, the, the, the, the, the, the the the the the. the. the the. the the. tttttttttoge. toge. togttoge. toge. toge. toge. toge. tha.'s like someone who doesn't know about football trying to talk about football. Yeah, okay, you don't know about women. At this stage, I know about ants. At this stage, now?
Starting point is 00:28:52 Oh my God! Now, come on. So Claudia Webster, then Becky Webster? Is she in Corny? Wobster? No, no, I don't remember fancying. Oh, backtracking that, mate. Just if you fancy Becky Webster, you fancy Becky Webster. No, I'm not saying I don't. Don't just give her a shit now. Don't know, I don't know, I probably did even fancy her. No, I'm not saying it like that. What I mean is, I'm not denying that I fan and get Becky Webster in contact now? No, I don't think so. Is she on Instagram? Do you follow her? No, I don't follow her on Instagram. I follow purely sexy ants.
Starting point is 00:29:28 Sexy, are you saying that Becky Webster is not sexy now? Is that what you're saying? No, I'm going to try and track down Becky Webster, actually. Yeah, if you couldn't, this was my secondary school. There was a thousand maybe my secondary school. Ooh. You're odd. Ha ha ha ha ha ha. Oh, sorry, I didn't realize you went to school in New York. Why not, Becky.
Starting point is 00:29:55 So, that's it. They get married though. Right. Follow us. Let me try and find Becky Webster. No, you don't need to check now. Why not, Becky. So, oh, that's it, they get married though, don't they? You can ever find the girls from school and it's gone.
Starting point is 00:30:10 I mean, I've not already looked, so I don't know why I'd know that. I don't know why I'd know that. Oh God, this is impossible. What was her name? I don't think I'm giving out ammo like that. I don't think there's anything wrong with fancying people at school. When I was growing up, I fancied Caprice, I fancied Jordan. I was very, very virgin at school. Yeah. I felt like I supported a football team in the lower leagues and it started going, oh, where would you like to win the champions league? What's the point. you you th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi? thi. thi? thi. thi. thi. thi. thi? I thi. thin. thin. thin. thin? I was thin? I was than, I was thin' thin' thin' th. I was, I was, I th. I th. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I th. I th. I th. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I's thaned. I thaned. I'm thananed. I'm thanananananananananananananananananananananananananananananananananananananananananananananananananananananananananananananed. I than with the tools I had. It was almost like pointless. You're just enjoying life in the lower leagues.
Starting point is 00:30:48 Yeah, exactly. It's like living in a flat and picking the swimming pool you would have. What's the point? Yeah, exactly. Anyway, let's get back to your list. Becky Webster, if you want to get in touch, Bex, I didn't. We'll get her in contact and maybe get her on the podcast. Sharon Stone, obviously. Obviously, so many cliched people that I didn't know anything about. So Analese from Neighbors.
Starting point is 00:31:12 Yeah, good choice. Classic choice. On Brand Widakum, Analise from Neighbors. Is this the laddest episode we've ever done? No, I think we're doing quite well to survive to survive, thak, thuuuuu, thu, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, I, that, I, I's, that, I'm, that, that, that, that, I'm, I'm, that, that, that, that I'm, that, that, that I'm, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I'm that I'm that I'm that I'm that I'm that's that's thi's that's thi, I'm 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 I that I that that survive this actually, just sort of Googling women and then uncommitting what they look like. This is really weird. No, but I'm just looking at from a point of view of an 11-year-old and the final one, Josh, which I've got more questions and answers, fruit and nut bar woman. Yeah. What's this?
Starting point is 00:31:35 It's another one, along with the voice of the caramel bunny. No way, really? Yeah. So I fancy Miramagulies? You fancy Miramagolies, Rob? You fancy Miramagolies, thee. thrown. to you're all learning, aren't we? Exactly! There you go.

Starting point is 00:32:31 You get the gist. I tell you what, she's quite forward, isn't she? Do you know what? She's quite sexually aggressive. I can just imagine you down. Legs crossed, just thinking, what is life? This is what I'm into. Shuffling off upstairs. Disgusting man, boy.

Starting point is 00:33:52 I've got a friend who's on a WhatsApp group with me. And his kids, this is how interrupted their sleep is. The other day on Friday I was with him, and I said, thaghap He said it was quite a good one last night actually. And I said what happened? And he said, both of them woke up twice. Four wakeups, Rob. He's a good friend. Can I hang around with him? You'll make me feel better.
Starting point is 00:34:13 It's insane. Four wake up. Four. Four wake up. The bad night was the night before had been five wakeups, plus one of them was up from four. Oh my God, even half five, you can't really moan like if they're sleeping through the night because my kids still wake up like half five, six some days, you know. Yeah, exactly. Poor Lou's taking a bit of a hit with that in recent weeks.
Starting point is 00:34:36 Oh, I know I said Lou's going away, she's going away with a mate, I think, for a little mini break. So she's going to have some time to rest and recuperate and I'll have the kids on my own for three nights, which would be fun, won't it? Yeah, they're the school though, they're in school bad. Do you know I've got some writing to do, Rob? Do you know what I'm gonna do it? When? I've got seven hours between Edinburgh and Cardiff. So what's the change?

You can rent clothes from your favorite organic brands and there's no minimum number of items.
Starting point is 00:41:30 Just choose what you need, pay monthly and return for free when your baby's outgrown them. We never charge for stains either. Honestly, the amount of clothes I get rid of. The website is, W.W-W-O-O-R-O-O-B-B-B-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-I-I-I-I-I-I-I. the-I. the-. You can, the the-I. You can, you.
