BIG NEWS.... we're writing a book!  ⭐ All the stories we can’t tell on the podcast – in depth. ⭐ What it’s like to raise a stiff neck and a loose neck – straight from the horse’s mouth (our parents) ⭐ And.. the BIGGEST REQUEST WE’VE EVER HAD FOR THE PODCAST… Hearing from our wives, Rose & Lou. They’ve got a chapter each and YOU can submit your burning questions to them...   [e-mail] What's it really like to be a parent? And how come no one ever warned Rob or Josh of the sheer mind-bending, world-altering, sleep-depriving, sick-covering, tear-inducing, snot-wiping, bore-inspiring, 4am-relationship-straining brutality of it all? And if they did, why can't they remember it (or remember anything else, for that matter)? And just when they thought it couldn't get any harder, why didn't anyone warn them about the slices of unmatched euphoric joy and pride that occasionally come piercing through, drenching you in unbridled happiness in much the same way a badly burped baby drenches you in milk-sick? Join Josh and Rob as they share the challenges and madness of their parenting journeys with lashings of empathy and extra helpings of laughs. Filled with all the things they never tell you at antenatal classes, Parenting Hell is a beguiling mixture of humour, rumination and conversation for prospective parents, new parents, old parents and never-to-be parents alike.

Hello, I'm Rob Beckett. And I'm Josh Willickham. Welcome to Parenting Hell, the show in which Josh and I discuss what it's really like to be a parent, which I would say can be a little tricky. So, to make ourselves and hopefully you feel better about the trials and tribulations of modern-day parenting, each week we'll be chatting to a famous parent about how they're coping. Or hopefully 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. Visit continue.yorky.c.c.a. Miller Light.

Widdickham. Well done, Malena. Nice work. Failed at Widdickam again. But fair enough, it's the equivalent of the travelator and gladiators, isn't it? You can do the whole of the eliminator but then you fall down on Widdocom. And I think if you don't go in confident the the the to to to to've exerted yourself early doors. How are you, Josh? I'm good. Do you want to know who that was? No. Okay. How are you? Obviously, no, I do. Come on. This was my 16-month-old daughter, Milena. We live in Bristol,

though I'm originally from? Russia. Malta. Oh, listening to your podcast kept me sane during those long hours, pushing a pram around around to to to to to to to to to to to to to to th. th. Do th.

She's early doors with the talking and even sings her own nursery rhymes. Yeah she is early doors with the talking actually. How old was she? 16 months or my son is late doors. You so care at the time but after a year because it's only my daughter was four so it's only a little while ago like two and a half years you should forget. Don't matter.

No it doesn't matter like but at the time I remember being like oh what is it too like just oh my god yeah but that is well yeah well yeah well. She's done well done she's talking but um yeah you just sort of forget. Well you just sort of, don't worry. Jake has done a good paragraph here. She's early dogs with the talking. Have you still got yogurt in your mouth? No. Was it just that your sound? Have you got an almond in there?

I know I can hear something clinking about. It sounded like a bored sweet. So you've got what was the almond? It was just an almond I picked up off the bowl unthinkingly. You popped in during talking that I heard clink and then you chewed it and got it down. I don't even remember the thought process that did that. That was on autopilot. Awful. So you chewed an almond, or almond, mid-chat.

Like a, you know those flaked almonds, not a full almond, like a flag. I was gonna say you got that down well. Yeah, no, no, not a full almond, like a flaked almond. Oh, I was gonna say, I thought you just panicked and choked it down. No. Goblin and aco, sorry, go. She's early dealt doors with the talking and even sitting during nursery rhymes to get herself to sleep. But, she has still never slept through the night.

And it's regularly up three to four times a night before starting the day at 5.30 a. thanks again and looking forward to the book, Jake. Oh Jake, that is brutal. Yeah, I take the mute sleeper thank you very much Jake how are you Josh all right I can't smile wide enough Rob I'm good actually I'm fine can't smile wide enough Yeah oh good that's good what's up we're just sort of grinding through back to school getting all the I don't know about you but I always go I'll get that sort when the kids are back in school which then means as soon as they're back in school I've got loads of horrible stuff to do. Our plan was to tidy the house in September. That was our plan. What a fucking life that is. Tidy the house. For once and since we've

moved in we've always said it's not quite how you want it or not tidy enough? Five years years in and now we're finally thinking September's the month. And what are your thoughts are moving or you definitely happy there now? We're happy here now. You're not going anywhere for the foreseeable? Okay. Talk to me in two years. We still might be moving but we don't know yet. Yeah, well, do you know what? Our daughter keeps asking when we're going to move.

But I don't think so. But maybe have friends have moved or something like that. A friends have moved house. I don't know if it's exciting for a kid or scary to move house because I never moved out. We moved when I was three and a half so I didn't really experience it and then I lived in the same house for 18 years before I moved out. Oh God, I can't imagine the stress of moving house now. The thrill of moving, but then that six months after where nothing's quite sorted. I think it's good. It's a new start, fresh start.

You can go through all, like, sort out all your direct debits and change all your addresses, it feels like a new beginning. Yeah, I love that bit. The move is exciting, to to to to to to to to to to to to to the to the the the to the the the the to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the thrives, the the the thrives, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the stress the the the the the the the stress the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the thrsellsellsellsellsellusellursellursellurselluritreauri.m.stressressress.stress.stress.stress. thrau.stri. thrileau. thrileau. thrile. new beginning. Yeah, I love that bit. The move is fun, right? You have to pay for a removals firm. We, I always moved myself in the back of my little car and then when we moved from our flat to what is our now sort of family home, we got movers and it was the greatest thing I've ever done. You're not going to believe what I've just done. What, what? I've just eaten an almond. What's drinking to? What's wrong with me? How hungry are you? Quite hungry because I brought my breakfast to record and I didn't eat it because we were recording. Yeah, then, yeah, but we were always going to be recording. I know. But I was late. Okay, fair enough. Wobey. I've just done that. thrown. 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 thrown thrown thrown the the th the the the the thrown thrown the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the 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.

How throngue throngue th's like we're having a conversation. It's just like we're having breakfast. Yeah, but even if we were having a conversation, like you've brought a bowl of yogurt from home, I'll be like

like it's a bit weird, isn't it? He's just... not from home. Like a finger dabbing almonds and popping them in mid-chat. Is like, you know, like the police in TV shows when they're testing cocaine. When they do a drugs bust. And they get it and rub it on their gun. I always think, they put a bit too much on there. I mean, they're actually flying up. Yeah, I think what you're a policeman, shouldn't know that that shouldn't help? Well if you want a parenting fowl about getting powders mixed up. Yeah. Here we go. Oh this was a good segue. A few months ago we went to the coast of our baby who was

four weeks old. We packed some formula and everything was going well until three and one morning. My husband told me our baby had been thrown up a fair bit. I'd explained a bit a bit of of of of of of of of of of of. At five him I took over to find millions of ants on one formula bottle and after spelling it I realized why. It turned out I'd packed formula in a tupoware box. My husband had also packed his own formula. Cookie protein powder in a similar box. Oh no. We accidentally measured out protein powder instead of formula. Oh my God. The baby only had half a bottle, threw it all up. He's absolutely fine. Just looks like... He's fucking ripped. Sorry, I think you were going to... I just realized that they said.

Look, that's why you're a comedian. Because they went for it. He looks like he's just ready for the Crossfit Champions 2023. Which is a great line, but... Yeah, that, that, the fucking, the fucking, the fucking, the fucking, thi, thi, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, th, oh, tho, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, th.

That's four, yeah, between us.

You don't know shit. You gotta have four on your own. So what ages have you got? The individual that changed my life was my daughter, Sophia Khan, and she was born 11 years ago. And then Nobed arrived quite quick after that was, that was, he he he he he he he he he, that was, that was, that was, that was, that was, that was, he's that was, he's that was, he's that was, he's that was, he's that was, he's that was, that was, he's that was, that was, that was, that was, that was, th. that was, that was, that was, that's that's. that's. that's. that's. that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's. that's, that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. that's. that's th. that's that's that's theree. that's that's that's theree. 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 was, that was, he's nine. Then the other Nobed came, E7. And then there's a new one, he's only two,

and he was on the cusp of being like his sister, but unfortunately he's ended up like his dad and his brothers. So that's the third Nobed, who's two. So have a favorite? Do you know what? Okay, it is, it is, it is, it is the thing, okay? I know I've presented that as like, your Sophia is the beacon of everything. Yeah. But you know, on a day-to-day basis, like somebody, like it's like a horse race.

Someone becomes a favorite every day by doing something silly or something funny or swearing at a neighbor., and like, and like, and like, and like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, it, it, it, it, like, it's, it's, 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, 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, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, it's, like, it's, like, it's, it's like, it's, Someone becomes a favorite every day by doing something silly or something funny or swearing at a neighbor. And like, you know, I mean, that's the interchange. But I'm very honest with them. I always sit them down regularly and say, look, man, some days your dad loves you more than others and today's you. And I think it's very important for character Jordan that they know they're four kids there. Do they interact well? Are they, I don't even know where I'd start with

like, just the day, like, taught me through getting up. So, you're up in the morning, you're up quite early. So Sophia is now, she's the best part of parenting. She's self-sufficient, any? She knows what she's doing, but she goes, be brushing her own teeth toothp.there's none of that drama about finding a spare toothbrush like we get with the younger lot. So she's very self-sufficient, breakfast sorts the south out. Yeah, it's good vibes. She's got music. She's got music con. She's got a music con. She's doing her tea. She's basically just like a flat share. She's like a lodger. She's a lot. She's like, she's like, she's like, she's like, she's like, she's like, she's like, she's like, she's like, she's like, she's like, she's like, she's like, she's like, she's like, she's like, she's like, she's like, she's like, she's like, she's like, she's like, she's like, she's like, like, like, she's like, she's like, she's like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, get reminded to like change the socks and actually a bit of a tramp when it comes to that. Apart from that, she's Sam.

So the other three, two of them share a bedroom. And then you know they're up because like things start like loud bangs on the floor. So that's yay and wiggi on a mad one. The littlest one, he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he is he is he is he. He he is he. He is he. He is he. He is he. He is th.

He's like, th. He's like, th. He's like, th. He's like The littlest one, he's still between me and his mom in the bed. Right. So he refuses to leave, but to be honest with you, me when we were Mr. was talking about this over the day, we're now used to that set up pretty much since Sophia. So we've always had one little weirdo

stuck between us like, 11 years, yeah. 11 years on the bounce, th, tapapapapapapapap, to, to, to, to, to, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, 11 years on the bounce, bro. Even when you try and even when you try and shift a kid out in between those periods, there's always one little pervert that opens your door in the night like, oh dad, what's going on dad?

When the kids, when you look at all four of them on the run of it, what it's like on a daily basis, our lives do revolve around them. But I want to say in a positive way here, like it's really fun for us. Like it is a mission. It's a mission every day, but me and me and her sometimes get a bit of quiet time. to the thr. thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi's like, thi's like, thi. thi. thi's like, thi. thi. to to to th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi's like thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi's like to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to thi's like thi's like thi's like you're fucking weird. And I'm like, yeah, you're right, thank you. Let's get back to the kids. So they're great for us. They're a great balance for us. What do you think it's gonna be like when you, like, can you remember what it was like when you were a couple? Just the two of you?

Because how long ago does that feel? things. I think for her she was kind of like, is my mate. It was never a lovey-w between me and her any so we were always mates which was really important. So she was like my mate might go to prison for a while. So she was used to that and instead she ended up in prison with her mate and just banged out four kids. So you know we're kind of in a version of prison because yeah go to work, she goes out and sees family and mates and stuff for a bit, but then both of us are like quite intensely back with the kids. Yeah.

But what life was like before that, I don't know. To go to the other, I suppose why it's not much of a change, is my family set up since I was, since I was a kid is, our houses have always been busy, and it? Yeah. When I go back to carve now and I crack the front door, in my house will be like three nieces and nephews of mine who are very close to me, like super close. My sister will be floating about, you know, one of her mates will be floating about the house. So for us kind of like, we're always used to like go, go, go, go, go, and I'm I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I wea, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi's, thi's, thi. thi's, thi. thi's, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th being like twiddling my thumbs on my own like I what should I do here

I always need like somebody about to have a laughing or feel happy so I suppose in that sense she's from a big family I'm from a really big family it's just like it's all I've ever known do I mean yeah is the family in Coventry as well yeah. Because that's the thing like what used to be a teacher didn't you and the to 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 the to be a to be a to be a the to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm to be. I to be. I'm to be. I'm to be. I'm to be. I'm to to be. I'm to to be. I'm to be. I'm to be. I'm to be. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I'm. the the the the t t t t t t t t t t t t try. t try. t try. t t try. t try. t try. try. try. I'm. I'm. I'm. Because that's the thing, like, what used to be a teacher, didn't you? And then you sort of broke through, but your rise to sort of success and being, you know, so busy with comedy and acting was quite quick. So you've gone from that setup with, you probably had a two-year-old daughter, you're a teacher, you're doing a few videos online online, and all of a teasease, and you, and you, and you, and you, and you, and you, and you, and you, and you're, and you're, and you're probably, and you're probably, and you're probably, and you're probably, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, you're probably, and, and, you're probably, you're probably, and, you're probably, you're probably, and, and, and, and, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, and, and, and all of a sudden now you're flying around the world filming stuff. Your life's changed quite a lot. Do you feel that's impacted on you as a dad and the kids because you're physically not there

enough? Luckily she's got support around her, your partner. But how's it for you not being there as regularly as you were in such a short amount of time? So it's kind of mad, throw, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, 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, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to thi... to to thi. to thi. to to thi.a. We.a. We's, tooo.a.a. We's, too. We's too. We's too. We's too. So, to to to had, we just had our third when I first ever tried like a funny video or whatever. So we were already quite into the parenting and I remember like thinking when I was teaching like I love the fundamentals of being a teacher interacting with the kids and you know they were really used to having a teacher from their background like in Corby, it's quite a ter area. So all of that stuff was going on,

but I was thinking shit, man, if I keep teaching this is going to kill me, because it's so intense, it's like you finish work, but you're like, I three, thirty, whatever, but now you're marking books till two a. It was killing me, but I always tried to like, men to stay in this family, this family, this family, this family, this family, this family, this family, this family, this family, their, th and than, than, than, than, than, than, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thin, thi, that I wanted to grab on when I could and take them with me so if it was like are you you're filming in Europe for three months on a balance I'd just but I'd just generally speak to school and be like you know what my organizations like it shit you see me calling for the school gates in the morning I've got this new job I got this new life do you reckon you can let the kids the kids the kids the kids the kids the kids the kids the kids the kids the kids the kids the the the the the the their th. th. th. th. th. th. th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I thi. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm 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 th. I's th. I th. I'll th. I'll th. I'll th. I'm th. I'm thi. I'm thi. the. te. te. te. te. tee. te. te. I'm just just just just just te. I'm just just te. I'm te. I'm te. I've got this new job, I've got this new life. Do you reckon you can let the kids come with me for a bit? And they'd be like, they were really good, schools were good. They were like, you know what, we will, but if he goes beyond this, we'll have to find

you. So I always took a bit of a fine in terms. They just, yeah. It's not building in an extra tax. Yeah, exactly, bro. Exactly. So, so I've always, I've always kind of been like get up and go. And Dino, my missis, that's a nickname. Like, last summer when we were in that they, that they come along with me. Do they enjoy it? Like that must be amazing as a kid to suddenly be in Prague or LA?

That's like, I've found that experience incredible when I was a kid. I mean, yeah. But like, you know, there's a bit of a discrepancy between the kids the first two obviously They're born on the same street that I grew up in they're very used to like being a bit Rowdy Sophia and yay Then the other guy came and he's a bit of a Pokemon he's an anomaly yeah I love him for what he is but he's like we taking kickboxing that Sophia and yeah Like and he's in the corner twlain and he's liked a they so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so I I I I I I I I I I I I's in the they. they's in they's in they's in they's in they's in they's in they's in they's in they's in they's in they's in they's in they. Sooing someen th someen thian somea thi thi they's in they's in they's in they's in they's in they's in they's in they's in they's in they's in they's in they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they thi's thi's thi's thi's thiiiiiiiiiiii's they their theyre's their their thiiii's they they they they they they's doing like Pokemon powers and stuff so I'm like, oh this kid, he's got his separate guy, he's got his own thing going on, I love him for you. So like between them, like the first two, they're quite like a bit of the rough stuff. So you know when things are like oh history, shall we go to this nice restaurant or whatever? Them to a lot? Yeah, bit at this is where the this is being, th is being, th is being, he's being, he's being, he's being, he's being, he's being, he's being, he's being, he's being, he's being, he's being, he's being, he's being, he's being, he's being, he's being, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's like, he's, he's, he's like, he's like, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He's, he, he's, he's, he's, he's, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, he's like, he's like, he. So he's still on that and I look at him and I'm in love with him in

because I'm like, yes, but this is where we came from. And then the other one's like, oh dad, do you think we could buy Wagyu? I'm like, how do you even know what Wagyu is? How do you even know what that is? This is being on YouTube. So like when we go away, then, thua th normal rowdy stuff versus let's try this experience but genuinely when we go away as long as we're together and we're in a nice gaff. Like we can't it's it's so much fun being with each other that we kind of just get on with it I mean. Yeah of course and that your life's changed quite a lot you know you still you know in carve with all your friends and family and stuff and you try and keep as normal as possible even though you are like in LA filming

all this stuff but do you find that it's going to be harder and harder do you kids get older and they're just experienced different different things to you know their peers you know it's my idea like and I genuinely I genuinely are genuinely checking with them a lot because to me it's like they're to they're they they they're they're they're they're the they're their they're their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their they they they're they're they're they're to they're their they're to to 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 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 their their their their their their their their their te te te te. ttte. te. te. te. te. te. tea te. tea tea tea tea they're they're Do you know, it's like, they're just kids, play, chill out. But it does mean a lot to me that they remember where we're from. And that's part, that's partly in like, where we spend time. So like, this place in Hillfields, or all my cousins and also used to get in my trouble, but was conversely the still part of the most fun part of my life growing up. We go back there regular once or twice a week and you know, Hillies is a rough place, but I tend to do that in, and you know, as they get older, I never want to take them somewhere or show them something that

they're like, oh dad, I'm not really into that. But they really enjoy it. They enjoy it. They enjoy it. They they they enjoy it. They enjoy it. They enjoy it. They enjoy it. They enjoy th. They enjoy th. They enjoy th. They enjoy th. T th. T th. T talk. T th. T th. T th. T th. T th. T th. T th. T thi thi. T thi. T are enjoy thi. Ta. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th is thi is thi is thi is thi is is th is is th is th is th is is th is is is th is is is is th is is is is is is th is is is is is is is is th is th is is is th is th is th. th. th. th. th is th. th. th. th is th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. their. their. their. their their their their their their thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. and uncles that I grew up with. Do you know what I mean? They always like put a hand on their shoulder and my shoulder and just give us a reminder, like good advice or have a little laugh and a joke. So, so for me, bro, kind of being on this journey, it's like all this new stuff is cool, but then also I'm open with them and everybody. It's like, this might go away tom tom tom tom tom tom tom tom tom to go away, tom tom, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, tho, to be, too, too, that, too, I, I's, I's, I's, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, I. th. And, I. And, I. And, I. And, I. And, I. And, I, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, t. And, I'm, t. And, t. And, I'm, I'm, t. And, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm a. And's like, oh this might go away tomorrow. That's like the mentality I still have. It's like, it's all good now. We're in LA doing this and HBO Studios and got my own show on TV. I goes in two years time, if I'm doing night shift to Azda,

he's what it is, and I genuinely try and put that into them. And they're not weirded out by it. They're like, they're like, they So yeah, that's important to me. Am I right in saying that there was a point when also you were living next door to your, either your parents or your in-laws at one point? Is that right? It's my mom. So technically, that's technically that still happens. There'll be a few nights a week when the kids, we've got like this new gaff. And like, they'll be scratching theyckckckckckckckckckckckckckckckckckckckck, their they'll their they'll be scratching their they'll be scratching that's their that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's a that's that's a that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's that's that's that's that's they. they. they. they. they. they. they. their their their their their their their their th. their their their th. their th. theyou. their their th. th. that's that's thi. when the kids, we've got like this new gaff and like they'll be scratching their head, I'll be like, you're good, and they'll be like, yeah, shall just go back to the old place for a bit? And I'm like, if you want, so like they'll grab their school stuff, they'll grab like switches or whatever, a few fundamentals, Pokemon, and they'll jump in the car and we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, th, th, th, th, th, th, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they'll, they, they, they'll just, they'll, they'll just, they'll just, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they'll, they'll, they'll, they'll, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they'll, they'll just, they'll just, they'll just, they'll just, they'll just, they'll just, they'll just, they'll just, they'll just, they'll just, they'll just, they'll just, they'll just, they'll just, they'll just, the car and we'll go back to the house and stay explored to my old day just because they like they enjoy that as well and my mom's, it sounds weird but like

always genuinely like it's a South Asian thing, any it's like a Caribbean thing and like in the area we grew up in like white working class Irish families their mom and dad's were always floating about. It's just something that we're so used to that if they're not there, like even my miss, you get into old school like archetypal, or like, you know, wives and mother-in-laws and what's the relationship, like, of course it can get a bit intense sometimes, but even she's like, shit man, where is she the fun guy? Because my mom is, my mom is a funny like, my mom is a funny like, my mom is a funny, like of like float between the two places. And that's that, genuinely, that's huge for the kids.

Yeah, yeah, also it's great for child care, in it. No, bro, of course, they'd be coming back saying some weird things in Budaubi and that that's gonna get me canceled, but it's worth it. Do you, do you four at any point? Like do you, do your mom look after all four and then you go, this is a, this is a date night just for us? I generally with my mom because like she's like, she's sitting in the mid-70s now and she's slowing down.

If I leave her with more than one, a phone call and come and get the things. Like, that is that. One at a the the the the the tha tha tha tha that one that one that is just a that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, tho, that, that, that, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that's, that's that, that, thoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.. that, that is that one at a time they're all one at a time is just about my sisters are wicked so like both my sisters are in the city as well so the kids go there and they have sleep over as like I said my niece and nephews and out in age where you know that to me they're always like kids in it in your head you know they're 17 18 a couple of them are 20 now so they're also the they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they're they're they're they're they're also they're also they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they they they 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 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 their their their their their th their th th th their th tho tho tho tho tho tho they're they're they're they're they're they're they're their they're like kids in your head. Yeah. But, you know, they're 17, 18. A couple of them are 20 now, so they're also really good with the kids. But I, like I said at the beginning, I genuinely can't remember when me and Dino have

been able to say, shall we go out and explore what this relationship's all about? Come. Let's talk, buddy, come on. What's what's really going on here? I if we did I'd be divorced. We'd probably be divorced next week. So I'm quite happy to have one to four kids still floating about. Yeah, I mean, so I think paper and over the cracks is underrated. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Why do you try and investigate the mold? Just repaint it, it'll be fine. And you are you done at four though? You're going and you're having more or four enough? Yeah, I don't want her to die. So I think four is definitely a lot and after the last one she's like,

I've nearly died there. Oh, was it bad? Like, it's every time it's a wondrous forward slash horrifying thing in it, like when you really think about it, it's fucking mad, bro, it's another person coming out of person, bro, this is my shit. It's just, it's just fucking, man, even the first time was like, it's a bit much stuck. Like, do you know what I mean? Yeah, if you saw it on Game of Thrones and you didn't know about childbirth, you go, I think he's gone too far this show. That's mental. Bro, 100% of just, like, you know what, the main thing is stressed me out when the nurse said it, when the nurse said it, it was just a little thing and she's gone to me.

I would be aumb of mucus like that. It's just coming out of your lungs, you're getting antibiotics. You're going on in the ventilator. You man are talking to all their mucus just flooding the floor out. It's very stressful for me. So I asked me, how are you, how are you, how are you, how are you the lair? How are you, they? laughing and joking but it is it is serious isn't it like did you struggle with that it was when we was in LA it was like a semi lockdown still then it so so everyone I think as a parent and whether you're a care or whatever it is

I've been quite used to people are under your feet all the time like yeah you know that's just something even people who were like yeah parent I've got made so like yeah parent is okay but I like my alone time even they were like, yeah, parents, I got maids, we're like, yeah, parents is okay. But I like my alone time. Even they were like, look, we've got to get on with it. Kids are here, we're gonna kill the pandemic, fucking up. But I better be nice to me. So when we're in LA, for a little bit we kind of found isolated,

because for the first time sisters, social circle. But we stayed in this quite like, oh, that it's archetypal thing they do, they put you in like, oh, this is like Hollywood. And this is where this guy lives and that guy lives. And we're like, I don't even know what I'm gonna even over you. So, when we got there, we stayed in that area. We didn't like it. It was, you felt kind of isolated and when you start getting to know the city a bit, you realize that the areas that are like affluent where they want you to stay that they think

are cool. You're physically looking down on all of the poverty in LA. It's mad the homelessness is crazy in it. Bro. And Rob, it's horrible in it because when you're standing on a top of one of these like swanky places where people live and you are physically looking down on some of the poorest people on planet Earth it was horrible and like the kids are like we don't really like this so we moved to another part of LA where there was a big Latino community and yo we felt fully at home grandma's grandad packing out the yard eight people in the house like and when we moved in there we got a little house in between this community that's when like our LA thing really took off my kids would run next door play with their kids it was

it was that just felt so much more comfortable for it do you find that with four I can't imagine you as a kind of as a disciplinarian that you don't strike me as someone. I mean, are you measured? Have you got rules or you just, how does it work? Joshi, this is something I thought as well, try to play. Sometimes you've got to come in, you've got to come in up, this leading. I suppose you're a teacher as well. So you're used to it, right? If it's always like more positive vibes and everyone's laughing and joking and stuff. Yeah. Like when when that tone shift comes, there's a real feeling of like, oh fuck, yeah. Oh my God. Yeah, and if the undercurrent is, oh look at your dad this fat little like, he's always laughing all the time and now fucking look, he's fucking there in the kitchen depressed and that,

it's like, oh shit, I better change my ways. Look, I really fucked up the whole context doing my daddy. Or, and you know, for their mom as well. Yeah. Yeah. Even including you guys, how do the rest of the family? Obviously you're super proud of it, but are you like, when your kid can do something much better than you, I've got that with drawing and my daughter.

She'll ask me to draw stuff because she's really into drawing. And she draws with her, Rose can draw and Rose's mom's an artist. So they can like draw stuff with her and show her how to draw stuff. I'm so shit at drawing. To the point where we'll draw on the same piece of paper. And then normally when she's drawing with like Rose or whatever you can tell which is which but we're literally and this is as much a reflection on me it's over level and so Rosal come in she can't tell the difference between what my daughter is for is drawn and I've drawn it's fucking pathetic I think it's

I think it's a good thing when you're young to work out what you're not naturally really good at and just bin it off and something you've got an inclination to and just hammer that because you only need one or two things you can do. No one wants a jack of all trades. But she's not gone to school yet and she's already worked out that her dad isn't you know isn't infinitely perfect and good at stuff which it should take kids longer than that for them for I think my new early doors to be honest. Do your kids watch the stuff you do guys? Like, yeah, like a little bit.

Like, I think the one who enjoyed most is quite my like Mobian and stuff. But apart from that, whether it be one missing, they obviously, and they say it like, mate, we're proud of what you're doing, where we've all come th as far........... But, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. they're, they're, they're, they're, their, their, they're, they's, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, they, does, does, does, does, does, does, mate, we're proud of what you're doing, where we've all come thus far, but it's really like quite normal at home. And there's always like a million other things to chat about. You know what I mean? Yeah. There's always something going off at school

or with their cousins or with the most like recently, I'm late to the party, like I'm late to the to be................. 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, to be to be to be late. to be late. to be, to be, to be, to be, told. to be, to be, to, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, to..... to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to me. to. to. to. to. to. to, to, to, to, to, to, th. to, to. to. to. to. th. th. th. th th to the party but like I got involved in fortnight with them towards the end of towards the end of summer holiday and they're all too young to be playing it technically but yeah I quite like wiggie the one doing all like the coming come your heart moves in the corner yeah he's the first time I've ever really seen him aggressive so I quite like I quite like the fact he's on the computer too young and like blood pressure going up, a couple of swears slip out. I don't even mind because you know what I mean? It's good to see someone. Yeah. I do love seeing them like competitive or passionate about something. You know when they're really into something?

Oh, yeah, the Warwick. The Warwick, that's the main, they're nice people at the Warwick, but it ain't Warwick. That's a different place. Exactly. It's in the middle, isn't it? Yeah, it's a bit weird. Like you've got like Belgrade, you got this place called what, the pop, it really pops. It ain't a massive room, it's like 600 or whatever.

But it's called a brilliant room to do if you can next time you're in carve do the realto people that oh that looks amazing as well I've just looked to that what a venue yeah yeah it's like it's like you know some legends have gone through there oh you should film is a special special in there yeah I'd love that you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you the the th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th thus 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 the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th th th th th th th the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the pot stuff all over there but that looks nice than Harold Pinter's there does it really not from the outside though looks rough as shit but inside looks nice actually sorry I'm looking at the one in California I'm sorry oh I'm gonna say it's I'm gonna say it's not that nice I've just looked at the one in California I'm sorry I'm just looked at how the ain't as nice I I like it I'm look I'm I the the the I the I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna gonna I'm gonna gonna gonna gonna to to to to the the the the the to the the the the the the the the the to to the the the the to to to to to to to to to to to th th th th th th th th the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th th th is is I'm th is th is th is th the thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi the thi thi thi thi thethat nice, you know. I've just looked it out the A&A's nice. I like it. I've looked at the California one though. The California one's unbelievable.

The Conventry runs all right. It's decent. But yeah, you do think I was going to be over the top? Yeah, I wasn't going to start casting you out but I was like, fucking Ali lots of Realtor, didn't he? The California one's unbelievable though, Gus. He's unbelievable. I can't even find a picture of it. Where's a picture of it? What, the Rialto Coventry? No, I've seen the Coventry. When I, when I googled Ria, Rata, South Pasadena.

How the hell did you that that was in Coventry, Rob? Look, I'm looking at pictures of this. It's in America. It's in America, yeah. Yeah, I mean, that's as simple as I can say. That is a the 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, to theymex. Do your kids have any sort of aspirations to theater or performing? Was it all fighting? Not that they've really, I tell you what they've all told you, which, which, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, they've, they've, the, they've, they've, they've, their, they've, they've, they've, their, they've, they, they, they, they, they, they, their, their, their, their, their, their, with, their, with, with, 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.................. toe..... toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. to.'ve, not that they've really, I tell you what they've all told me, which is weird, isn't it? Because like, if it, like, the more visual stuff is like the acting and stuff, but they've all told me that the older three that stays, they want to try stand up.

And that makes you a little bit proud, that it's YouTube when I do it or whatever or maybe to be honest with you because it's the one that is still like quite pure when I come home and I'm like oh that was sick like that gig in this place it maybe they see oh shit that's the one he's really into and so they're kind of like yeah we want to catch those vibes so yeah 'll be heckling the shit out of them bro. Are you are you vocal when you watch them do sport and stuff do you get involved? Uh, yeah, no, a little bit, their mom is probably way more to be, even like, on sports day and stuff like, she'll always be the one like, you know they still like dad's race but she'll jump into like mom's doing it and dad she's like a bit of a I don't know mate she's releasing some kind of endorphins that we don't even know there after time so she really

she takes all that stuff kind of seriously I'm just happy to see them do do them do tho do 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. Did thi thi thi. I'm just just just just thi. I'm just just thi. I'm just just thi. I'm just just thi.

Now, because there is, bro, look, I tell you truth, I tell you the truth, it's the same for all three of group, the family WhatsApp group, they'll be like, Oh, funny, but you fucking can't run. And I'm not listening. How involved are you with the school dad?

Do you go for drinks and stuff or you swerve it? No, I mean, a little bit, but like, yeah, not, not too much. I'll say sound to everybody. You know he's, I'm a bit of a so whenever someone's granddad comes and picks them up I'll spend loads of time chatting to the granddad. I chat to the granddad as a granddad who drops off his kid at the same school always chatting to him. I think do you know what it is I think when you're a comedian and you're self-employed your days a bit floatier because you sort of choose what you do and sometimes you're really busy sometimes you're not and I feel th I I I I I I I I I I I th th th th I 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 that are working a 9 to 5. It's one of the saddest things I've ever heard of.

35 year old man or whatever you are hanging out on part benches sharing a packet of foxes glassy of mince with an 80 year old talking about when the world was a better place. Retired people have got less to prove, they're just sort of chilled. You brought, I've genuinely found it and like, people who are, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, who are, who are, who are, who are, who are, who are, who are, who are, who are, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, like, like, like, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi-a, th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, 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. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. thi. thi. thii. thiiiiiiiiii. thiii. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi, thi. a better place. The tired people have got less to prove, aren't they? They're just sort of chilled. You brought, I've genuinely found it. And like, people who are your age are like, what's going on work? Or, but the granddad, the few that I talk to, it's always about like, oh, fucking, what PSI shall I put in my tire? And it's like I know, I, I, like, like, like, I, like, I, I, like, like, like, I, like, I, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, I. Oh, I. the the the their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. that. Or they're quite happy to slag people off because they don't care. They haven't got full skin in the game. You know what I mean? If you're the grandparent

dropping off at school, you're not fully involved so you can slag everyone off. Yes, yes. Listen, we've unlocked a magical part of the school room, me. Yeah. Which is I think as well they're just so happy to have woken up that day. Full of beans. And yeah, the last question, what's the one thing that annoys you about the way your partner parents and what's the best thing about the way they parent? Is that one thing that just gets on your nerves that you don't really bring up anymore to stop arguments? No, she's, Dino is just a good lad, you know. Like, there's nothing. Good lad. She's really good. There's nothing I can really say.

Like, she's just, all I say is this, in this combination of two fairly young people having four kids, my days if she weren't about with being trouble. That's all I'll say. Yeah. And what's the best thing. What about her? The way she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she's the way she's the way she's the way she's the way she's the best thing? What about her? The way she parents, yeah, what's the best thing about her as a mom? Um, I tell you what it's funny, I do like,

if one of the kids pisses or marke pistols are off, their lunchbox will be shit. She'll send a school with a strict lunchbox. That's funny. And she like, to take all of the mini rolls.

He properly, it's just funny and he's just a funny bloke. Have you ever done a West End run like that? I did the Palladium, but that doesn't count, does it? And that's not a run. No, so I was filming your special that sense of it. It would be nice wouldn't it just to go to, it feel like you're going to work

and like, Charles Rehabilia or whatever. Yeah, but you could do that, just work in Subway. The thing with theaters though is like, they're really pretty and beautiful, but I think sometimes comedy, you're like, they feel a bit like, and it's in a shit play and they do one little crap pun and everyone goes ha ha ha because it's been so boring I'm like that is not worthy of that laugh you just bored people who laugh people who laugh at plays they're not funny well people who describe books as hilarious I've never read a hilarious book I've read books where I've

I've never cried with laughter at a book. Don't forget to buy, Parenting Hill the Book. Don't forget, apparently that is a funny book. No, no, no. That's why we've written. Yeah, the first ever funny book. Yeah, so. Bruce can be funny, but when they're like tears rolling down my face, fuck off.

Yeah, I don't know. Some people do laugh easy. If you've met someone like at a wedding where you say anything and they're like, ha ha ha ha! And like, but they mean it. You know, this guy's a fucking, I'm just going to put him on a chain and bring him with me everywhere I go. This guy's unbelievable. Yeah, I have met people like that. I've been that at a wedding when I'm struggling for conversation with someone. I really do laugh off shit banter just to try and slap on the shoulder and walk away.

Oh my god. Good one. Is there a more stressful moment than approaching the seating plan at a wedding? Fuck here now. Oh you've got to go in there first and move it.
