Or hopefully how they're not coping. And we'll also be hearing from you the listener with your tips, advice, and of course,

They put me in a lovely room, however the room the table is actually metal and I don't know much about sound but I've always been a recording booth. Can't you just go into the recording booth? No because the Wi-Fi is not very good in the recording booth. I mean I've got a beautiful giant window that looks over London

that is dreadful for sound, a metal table, everything's so, listen, everything's rock hard. That was a glass on a metal table. And you normally recorded in soft play don't you? There's a slate thing to put for my drink on. Yeah, hear that? That's slate. Everything's rock hard. And there's people talking in the office next door, but I can't be that guy. There's a a a a th.

But can't they just, can't they just get a long internet wire and put that into the recording booth, rather than you having to do this in a slate room? Yeah, but I don't know, but I've also pushed back the record time for that. I don't want to be a diva Josh. It's too late Rob. It's too late. I've not Josh I've had the most mental week since we lot.

It was great. And then they started shouting at me on the megaphone.

What do you mean? The oil protesters. What at you? What as in, scab? Or as in? Yeah, no, a bit aggressive. Because I went, yeah, supporters, on a fucking weekend because it was Monday morning and then they turned. Oh no Rob. They turned on me and they started shouting at me and then doing like a

da da da da da da you know that's what protesters always do it's always like a crap they need to get some more football fans into protest into like up the level of the song.

I was so panicked I was all doing it wrong because everyone was taking photos me and they was all saying you're in the protest why are you leading the protest but I didn't know what I was leading apparently and then and so I was all stressed and when you watch the video of me on the news I'm

bouncing around because I'm in my crop I'm all nervous I'm bouncing around you know like football hooligans ready for a a fight. I'm in that kind of headspace, because everyone's sort of attacking me with photos and questions and chants, and I'm just there in the middle, like a scared little dog. So I'm bouncing around, because obviously in Crocs, you can really bouncing, so I'm bouncing about and I got my stupid dad backpack on. Because that's so heavy. Thank God you didn't have lose trolley. I've had an absolute not, yeah it was so stressful Josh honestly. And then yeah, and then before I know I'm doing voiceover on Gary Lucy taking a girl from

HR out for a burrito, do you know what I mean? I hope he didn't use a car. It's quite a world win day. So the next day did you get out and walk or did you make sure you stayed in the car right to the last minute? The next day we went a different route. Weav. th. th. to th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. It's, th.

But anyway I'm here now I'm at Slav Toe to go dating I'm doing the Parenting Help podcast and I'm not a protester anymore. From a room in a recording studio that doesn't have its own acoustics? No, it feels like I'm in a fridge. Sorry if the sounds bad, but we've addressed it now, haven't I, Josh? You've addressed it now? What else? What else?

what else happened? Well, let's tell me, tell me about, because I have seen on Instagram that you've been using Lou's old person's trolly. Right, yes. Do you want to explain that? Well, a couple of that, 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, the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. that, that, that, I's the the that's, I'. that's, I's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it, I's it, I's it, I's it, I's it, I's it, I's it, I they. that's it, I I I that's it, I I I I they. they. they. the, I the the, I the the the the the the the the the the the th. th. th. th. th. that's that. that-I's that-I's thr. thr. thr. thr. thr. thr. that's thr. that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that eight month year old again. What? I keep people to telling me off, whenever I talk about an age under a year, I say the month then year, I keep saying eight month year old. And it's still going on, but I think I'm just going to have to own that. Get a life. I didn't even know it's my new thing. Like your catchphrase. Yeah, but if I say it enough maybe maybe maybe maybe maybe maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, maybe, people, maybe, people, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, th, the that, people people people, the. the. the, the, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, 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, the the the the the that, the the the the that, the the the that, the the that, the the that, that Shakespeare invented words didn't he? Well I I'll be honest I hadn't even noticed it and when you said it. How angry are people getting? Well just like fuck sake Rob it's not. It's a free podcast. But I think I just say a lot I do talk to you actually told me

how often you talking about kids that are under a year? Not that much why you say that you say like you say it you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you say it you say it you say it you say it to say it to say it to say it to say it to say it to say it to say it to say it to say to say to say to say to say to say to to to to say to say to to to to to to to told told told told told told to to to to to to to to to to to to to to 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 to to they. to to to told. they. told me. told me. told me. I told me. told. told. to to told. to to to to to that are under a year? Not that much. Why you say it sounds like some sort of pedophile hunter. I know, exactly. You just said you say it a lot. It's like... On the podcast, because we're normally talking about kids in their age, aren't we? When we interviewed people. Oh, I see. So lose trolley, basically, I was going to drop their big bottles of drink that are really full of water and well-ease for like a walk later on in the week and PE kids and I literally couldn't carry it

all so I put it in loose trolley and omit defeat I'm a trolley guy now the amount of heckles I got I got podcast listeners pointing a laughing knowing about it and then just builders go nice bag you twacked it horrible was it worth it Rob would you do it again or that is the a a a a the a the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the to the to the to to to the to to the to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to toe. I'm tock. I'm toe. I'm to to to to to to to to to to to to. to. I to. I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I toy. toy. I toy. I try. I try. I try. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. try. try. try. try. try. try. try. try. try do it again or is the abuse worth the ease? I'd say at the moment it's 50-50. But she has got the most mental one. She's got one that's got a pink handle, Green Wheels and those are little weird moon faces on. Don't, this is how you start, the next week you're going to say, so I've got my own Arsenal one or something like that. Arsenal that. That would look even more mental. Old woman's arsenal trolley.

I'll get a Louis Vuitton one. Like a footballer, you should get one of them like sort of footballer one that's a little bit of a trolley. That'll be no one it's taken off. When you see the footballers getting off the coach to go into the dressing room, big headphones and then one of those trollies. Would you know what? It would actually be easier to put them in a suitcase and wheel it because when suitcases with the four, you know the four wheels that sort of go 360? That would probably be the best. But when you get there you've got to put it on the floor and unzip it, like you've got a too big, too heavy as to suitcase. It's more. It's more, it's more, it's more, it's more, it's more, it's more, it's more, it's more, it's more, it's more, it's more, it's more, it's more, it's more, it's more, it's more, it's more, it's more, it's more, it's more, it's more, it's more, it's more, it's more, it's more, you's more, you're more, you're more, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you. It's, you. It's, you, you. It's, you. It's, you. It's, you. It's, you. It's more, you. It's more, you. It's more, you. It's more, you. It's more, you. It's more, you're more, you're more, you're more, you're more, you know, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more the the the the four. It's more the four. It's more, more, more, more, it's more, more, it's just the easiest way to carry the bags, but the trolley's quite good because the

wheels are bigger, it can handle a few bumps in a row, do you know? Oh he's a convert. Against my will just because my life's shit and I just have to carry. I'm like a pack-horse going on the school run. Have you taken it to pickup? Like, when you do pickup? Well, I've not been doing pickups that much, I've been doing drop-offs and Lou's been doing pickups. I didn't even do drop-off today, but because I normally leave the house about half-eight, then I can sort of drop-off at 8,

and then Lou does the pickup. up drop-offs easier because there's less people pickups that's really when everyone starts having to look at your back. You're stood at a gate with your trolley at that point. Yeah yeah exactly so yes not not ideal not ideal.

My daughter's been learning about the Great Fire of London. No idea why. I don't know what this seems to be quite a big topic at school. Does it? But who cares? Why do we need to know about fire? You don't even live in London. Well, I do, technically live in London. You don't live in London. You don't live in London. She doesn't live in London. But then we used to learn about London when I grew up outside of London. Well, no, exactly.

But I still just don't get like, why is it important? Why is it important? Is it because you hate London because you don't live there? No, it's nothing to do. I don't hate London a bit. It's so busy, Josh. The traffic's awful. The ules, the congestion, oh my god, I sound like Jeremy Clarkson, Josh. What's happened to me this week? The congestion charge is an absolute record. Can I call you just say this?

One morning, I'm coming across being shouting at by an oil march and you've turned it to Clarkton. Alright, so yeah but I'm trying to do the right thing Josh. I've got an electric car right? So when you get an electric car... You're shouting that when they were shouting, I've got a bloody electric car! So if you get electric car right and you drive into London you will get a fine for the congestion charge but electric cars to register your car on the website for £10 a year, okay? And then you have to, for 10 pounds, apply for them to double check to see if your car's electric or not, for £10. And then, when they've done that, then you can drive in and out of London without applying the congestion. However, can you? Yes, but you have to pay that you have to pay've got a diesel car that I bought in 2015, right? A Nissan Cashkai that I was told to buy diesel because that was the new thing.

I bought it. Now if I drive that into London, I've got to pay congestion charge and you less, right, which is 20 quid because it's not low emissions, okay? However, I don't need to register that they just look at the number plate and they already know but they can't do that on my electric car apparently. What did James May and the hamster think about it? I don't know I'm not on speaking terms of them. I've been fallen out. I've never met them. I love it if you just turned up with a goatian travel beads out of nowhere. Yeah, what the the Great Far of London than I do. A hundred percent, she knows loads about it, and I got in trouble. Started in a, started on Pudding Lane.

Yeah, that's the one. But I got in trouble because when, when she said, when did it start, I told her 1664? I told her 1664, I told the 1664 I th, 1664, 1664, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I that 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, I'd that's that's that's tho, that's tho, 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, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, tho tho thoen, thoen, thoen, that's that's that's that's thoooooooooooooooooooooooooe that's that's that's. Well, exactly, that's how I got it wrong. It was 1666, but I told it's 1664, because that was burning in my head, but that's the Cronenburg year, isn't it? It's the Cronenburg year. I can't believe that Cronenburg's older than the Great Farrant London. Imagine that. stuff. Let's forget about the oven and the rolls. Let's get a bit more of this, isn't it, me? It's much better than Carling. Carling was 1663 actually. Yeah. It's made better. So Great Fire of London, didn't it? Wasn't that what basically ended the plague? Am I right in saying? I've got literally no idea whatsoever, Josh? She's obsessed with it I just don't get what they need to know about it. Why do you need to know about there was a fire?

What what how does that help you at all go? I know history I think the point of history is not just to know stuff is to know the what the implications were but then stuff must maybe she's learned about fire safety maybe that's what she's learning. Or maybe it led she's that. She's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that that that that's learned that's that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that 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 th. th. th. th. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. that's that's that's that's Revolution because there was space to build. Why don't you tell her that and see how that goes down with a teacher. Yeah, but I don't think a good way of teaching your children is to sort of guess and tell your child's fact before they start quoting the Cronenberg. Yeah, yeah. I just think, do you need to lean and learn this at school when it's already on Wikipedia? Let's move on for the great fry loan. Okay, sorry. Well, no, no, I just, I don't think anyone cares, do they? It's just, this is me and you're reading Wikipedia.

Your daughter's finally got into the podcast. Okay, so tell me about strictly. tea tea. the teterms of conditions is the hardest, is the hardest, is the hardest, is the hardest, is the hardest, is the hardest, is the hardest, It's so overwhelming because you're basically, you're strictly. I watch people do it and you don't get a huge amount of screen time. So there's a lot of pressure on you not to F it up, presumably. Yeah, I nearly said the C word instead of count. Did you? Yeah, by accident.

You're basically in a black corner of a studio. Okay. And they go, wait there. their, the scripts but it is the driest most BBC official it has to be like that because it's about how much you're paying it's like you know you can't. It's like going on QI. Yeah there's no banter in it whatsoever. You stood in like the dark corner of studio and your eyes are getting all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all, you are literally pushed through this glitter curtain like you've been born into a sweet shop and it's so bright. Everyone's got about

six inches of makeup on. You can see like Will Mellor's nipples and you're just like, it's so overwhelming. Claudia Winklain was there, everyone's screaming and you go, phone calls on the long number cost 15 P and I'm like, oh, like you're trying to choke it out but it's so stressful. You don't like reading out loud at the best of times. Not really not if there's no punch on at the end and then I'm just sort of doing it and then you're there for seconds and then you're out again. Did you get to do it thrown like you go there for a bit of promo and also I thought the kids will love it Because I had the day off and I was like I don't really want to work, but it's not really work in the try and is it that no? So the kids loved it? Oh, yeah, so we got to the car up there and then I gave it sent us a nice. the nice nice nice nice nice nice nice nice nice nice a nice a nice nice a nice a nice a nice nice a nice nice nice a nice a nice the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the kids the kids the kids the kids the kids the kids the kids the kids the kids the kids the kids the kids the kids the kids the kids the kids the kids the kids the kids 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. the kids will th. that one. that one. their th. th. the kids will. the kids will. the kids will. their the kids. their they loved it and then they got to meet all the different dancers and stuff, but they got to, they met, they met, Anton de Beg, is such a lovely guy.

Do you know what if Lou started shagging Giovanni I'd take good luck to you would you? Yeah I'd respect that to a point I think if Louvre's

Is that how you'd leave the house? No, so I'd, do you know what? What I'd do? I'd try and be, um, I'd go, I want nothing. I don't need anything. I'd go, I want nothing.

Oh God, that's actually breaking my heart a bit. I just go, I don't need anything. I think the rule is, whoever shagging has to move out. That's gotta be the rule, isn't it? That's got to be the rule for an affair, isn't it? That's got to be the rule for an affair.

Yeah and my kids wouldn't really understand what was going on and just love him because he's on strictly and I just sat there,

livid. How doing some of your colouring? And then that clippery surfaces of me pushing Ellie Simmons over on 8 out of 10 cats and my kids see that and go you're evil and then I know they should just me on my own with the trolly bag but oh dear. It's good though and then we got to go on the strictly set right this is quite funny. So my youngest was like loving it she was running up the stairs that they walked down she was sat on on the judge's seat and stuff because the audience was in so it's a bit weird because it was like 500 people in there but my youngest was loving it and running around having photos and my eldest was like no I don't want to tell you're. Yeah oh God I was like because she's a bit more nervous. One she's comfortable she's thi thi the little bit more apprehensive she's she's she's she's she's she's she's she's thin she's thin she's she's thi she's thi she's thi she's the thi she's the the the the the thi thi the the the the the their their their their their their their their their their their their their there was there was there was there was there was there's there's the their their their their there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there the the the the the the the the the the the thi thi thi was thi was thi was thi was the the thi was the thi was the the thi was the the the the there was there was there's, come on, sit on the, because they wanted to take a photo of us at the top of the stairs and in the,

in the judge's seats with a paddle. Yeah. And I was like, look, just sit, come and sit in the seat, come sit in the seat, come sit. Come on sit in the seat, come sit in the f-foomorrow. paddle, right? So it was like, you will thank me one day. So I do, so it was very difficult because I was like, I know she wants to and I know she'll love the photo and I know that if she's not, she'll be really upset when we get home with herself and the fact that why has she got a photo and I haven't got a photo? Yeah, and you can't go, well you do, you know, so I was like, so in the end mate and I the the the the thian. I thian. I thian. I thian. I th. I th. I th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. So, you th.

Well, but I didn't know what else to do because like there's loads of people watching it was a bit overwhelming and I've got to go up the stairs as well Lynch. But she was happy and loved it and then I'd but like I did. She was fucking happy mate. She's made a Barbie out of it. But I didn't know else to do Josh. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I th.

pressure because there's 500 people I know at that point that's that's stressful I was getting the feet I didn't do that but my head inside I was like just get on that fucking you know that that's so so so so so so so that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that that was that that was that was that that was that that that that that that that the that the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the ttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttell you the the the the the the the the the the the they were all lovely with the kids and stuff. They all saw that, you know, all the dancers are really nice and things. Nice, nice. Did you see the curse striking anyone, Rob? No, no one was getting off of each other. It was all fine. But what was weird was because they only just started this series, they're not really that into the celebs yet because they're not really that into the the the dancers and you know stuff like that but when it was like they weren't that like because I was like oh do you have a photo of

Will and they were like no no I was like oh this is awkward do you not remember two points lying on a packet Chris exactly and then what was going on I don't care about the come on Holly Oaks original cast I then, but my kids didn't care less. Were you not tempted to get a photo of Tony Adams? I've met him before and I didn't really want a photo of him in the chimney sweep outfit. It's not how I want to remember it. No. It's rare that you and Tony Adams are wearing the same outfit, isn't it?

Because she's over that excited to start school phase. She's a bit like, she keeps waking up and going, when can we have a day off, right? And then I dropped to the school gate from like Wednesday last week and she turned to me. I went, Daddy, I went, yeah, she went, when is it over? Oh my God. And I went, never. At least 18 years of this for you, probably, at least 18 years of it. Did you? Did you complain about going?

She prefers school to us. What because it's, you're there? Yeah, because she just prefers school. Really? What a nerd? She's not feel like, but then do you not feel like self-conscious that you're not bringing a banter? I'm not bringing the ban... You're not just, you're not bringing it?

The teacher's bringing more banter than me, yeah, that is... Yeah, well I'm just, I'm not, I don't want to get in your ed. No. No. . providing the lulls? I provide lulls 24-7 role.

Well we'll see it's 38 minutes. A bit of a bit of trivia for those listening. Look at how long you've had the podcast and you can work out exactly how much Michael's edited out of that. Because we've recorded 38 minutes, 37 seconds at this moment. Carry on. Um, me bringing the lulls. I don't know. What are the other lulls that I bring? Chasing around.

Josh mused. You know, spinning her. I put her on the side in the kitchen yesterday. She loved that. She sat on the side of the kitchen. Put her on the kitchen workspace. Pussed around that. Oh, wow. It is thrilling for a to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the to to the the to the the to the the to the to the the the to the the to the to to their to to to rules if Rose is there? It's not against the rules but I'm going to tell you

Those are your words. I get it. Your wife is the wife. the wife. the wife. the wife. the wife. the w. the words are the words. the words. the words. the words. the words. the words. the words. the words. the words. the words. the words. the words. the words. the words. the words. the words. the words. the words. the words. the words. the words is the words is the words. the words. the words. the words. the words. the words. the words.

Your wife's not as fun as you. Is that what you're saying? Oh, is this because of Giovanni, Rob? Are you... Is the... Well, I'd like to see you get wrapped up in an oil protest and go to Strictly and talk about the Great Fire of London and not be a little bit unhinged after that week. So Rob, do you know what today is also? Because of the books launching on Thursday, it's Tuesday and it's I'm on Tick Tock now, Rob. You're on Tick Tock. I'm on Tick Tock. Yes! So, yeah, this is a mate, we not spoke about this.

We, after the audio book, we recorded two Tick Tocks for you, didn't we? My opening Tick Tock. tktocks. And so we did the sp. the sp. thk. thk, thk, 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 took, I, I's, I'm on to to to to to to took, I'm on to too. I'm on to toe. I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I I I I, I I I I I I, I I I I I, I I I I I, I I I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I'm, I'm on. I'm on. I'm on. tk. tick. tk. tk. tk. tk. tk. tk. tk. I'm on T. I'm on T. I'm on T. I'm on T. I'm on T. I'm on T. I'm on T. I'm on T. And so we did the Sprite Challenge. Yep, you failed out miserably, you'll see that. Yeah, which I found out miserably and you got heartburn. Yeah. So rock and roll. We're so young. So rock and roll. But you were in a lot of pain. So it's wo-yrea to the and over. 28 year olds going, what's he talking about? Hot Chip the Band?

No, you did the one chip challenge and you know what Josh, I kept on mentioning it as a thing of there's no way who'll do this because the videos are horrific and it's actually starting getting into the news now but people have been taken to hospital for eating. What, you didn't tell me that? I know exactly, that's why I kept kept why I kept why I kept why I kept why I kept why I kept why I kept why I kept why I kept why I kept why I kept why I kept why I kept why I kept why I kept why I kept.. that. that. I kept. the, I kept. I kept. I kept. I kept. I kept. I kept. the, I kept, I kept, I'm, I'm, I'm, I kept, I kept, I kept, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I, I'm, I. the, I. the, I. the, I. the, I. the, I. the, I. the, I. the, I. the, I. the, I. the, I. the, I. the, I. the, I. the, I, I. the, I, I, I, I, I'm, I, I, I, I, I'm, and, and, t. t. t. t. t. too. te. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. the, the, the, the, that's why I kept on mentioning it and I kept on saying, yeah we should do this but maybe you should watch some videos first. On the day of doing it, you hadn't watched a video, none of the book people had watched a video, I was the only one and I was like, if he dies here, this is going to be terrible from a, you know, mainly financial point of you. It's going to be? I think it goes to Rose I'm afraid. Yeah which is annoying because she's just not a lot she's just not putting the children on the sideboard enough for my tasks. If I die those

children never going on the sideboard again mate. But yeah so I was a bit worried about this but you you did honestly really well with a one chip chipp I was very impressed and then on the way I did I I I I I I I I I I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did I did th. th. I did I did I did I did I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. I did I did. I did th. I did th. I did th. I did the. I did the. I did the the to theeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. to to to the. I the. I the. I did, I did much better than I thought I was going to do. You had half of the chip, which is amazing because it's not a ruin that you can watch it yourself, but I had a little taste of it. I was in trouble. I had a little taste of the dust and I was in trouble. And you ate half of it and you didn't start getting help palpitations. But by that point we'd stop filming. That's normal for you though, isn't it? Yeah, so that's that really, Rob. Yeah, so yeah, get on Tick Tock and see Josh's Tick Tock.

And if you don't know what I'm talking about, it's on my Instagram and Tick Tock as well. Right, do you want to do a bit of correspondence, one of the correspondents? Let's do some corresponde. Okay, correspond I, here we go. Hi, Robin, Josh, I have a story on when I won something. When I was around 13 or 14, there was a big lottery rollover and I asked my mum and dad to put on a lucky dip for me with one pound of my pocket money. Oh my God. It was back in the lottery. Well, my ticket ended up winning 80 quid. Oh, that's a show.

Being 13, no, come on Josh. The rollover doesn't make any difference to that price. Mate, for normal children, being 13 and winning 80 quid when it's televised is a big deal. That's huge. I ended up winning 80 quid. Being 13, I was over the moon until my parents teach me a lesson on underage gambling. That is not on. Did I have a tell you, I told you obviously about when we won at Plymouth Argyll, but when my great-grandma passed away when I was 10, yeah. She left all of her great-grandkids, 800 quid each. And I got it. What did you spend it on? I bought a, well I kind of dragged it out

over my teenage years whenever I wanted something. So I bought a stack stereo, do you remember those stack stereos that had CD, tape, double tape, even, radio and then a record pound on. Yes, I had a Sony mate, 350 quid. Best money I've ever spent. I took it all to the money back then. Huge amount. I'm a, 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 th, I've, I've th, I've th, I've th, I've thed, I've thed, I've thed, I've thed, I've thed, I've th, I've, I've, I've, I've thed, I've, I've thed, I've thed, I've thagued, I thaged, I thaged, I thed, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I, I, I, I, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I've th, I've th, I've th, I've tha, I've tha, I've tha, I've thrown, I've thrown, I've thr-a, I've thrown, I've thr-a, I've thr- I've th Yeah. I had a Sony mate, 350 quid. Best money I ever spent. I took it all the way to uni. Huge amount. I was splashing the cash in those days. That was the one time I've just thought.

This is living. This is life. This is life. So should we do some small business shoutouts, Josh? Yes, this one here. At build underscore A A underscore box. I was wondering if you do a small business shout-off for me, I sell plaster molds to paint for the kids something fun to do and gives you a couple of minutes piece. I've only just started out, but I love what I do

and would like to branch out a little bit. So you can go on the Instagram, build underscore, a ta- lovely, they come really nicely packaged, different colours and pasta molds of different characters. You do Christmas ones, there's some cartoony ones. But yeah, that's lovely nice little Christmas present. It'd be quite a good thing to get from them to do on Christmas Day. Well, Rob, talking of Christmas. Yeah. Hello you sexy, unrelatable bastards. Yes. My wife has just started a small business during a maternity leave, making amazing personalized Santa Sacks,

which are perfect for kids on Christmas morning, and personalized tote bags. More coming soon. We've talked about our love of tote bags before, Rob.

I's the. I's the. I's thi. I's th. But what I'm going to say is, Josh, the reason why is because this, we started this in lockdown when it was all we did, but now we're busy again. It's hard to sort of fit it in, but we're, next year, we're making it more of a priority, aren't we, Josh? It's going to be our number one priority. Few announcements coming up that it's going to be our main priority going forward so you won't have this going

forward but it's been we've been having to work out how to manage it now that we're back to work full-time with the kids and still doing this but we want to continue offering this for free but we are trying to find a way to fit into our diary so it's a bit more efficient but going forward it's it's it's the will never sound like this again. That is our promise. We'll only sound sexier and more unrelatable. Josh it's been an absolute pleasure I'll see on Friday. It's been a joy. So see on Friday for another top interview Josh. Top interview. Do you know who it is Rob? It's a surprise. I'm gonna keep it as a surprise. Okay bleep that out Michael. Bye.
