Or hopefully how they're they're tha th hearing from you the listener with your tips, advice, and of course, tales of parenting woe.

I'm not on drugs. No I'm just fucking fucked. I'm just uh yeah should we read some correspondence and then we can all have a good time? He's had a bloke on beep. I'm just fucking fun because he's a fuck. Okay all good. Did we read
Starting point is 00:03:38 out who that we got Wednesday? Was there another bit to that email? Oh yeah sorry listening to people talk about children with less that email? Oh yeah, sorry. Listening to people talk about children, with less traditional names, Wednesday's great-grandma, 99's still going strong, didn't believe we'd called her Wednesday until she was four months old. Lots of people ask where we got the name from, in brackets as she predates the Netflix show,
Starting point is 00:03:56 and they were both fans of the ans family. Can't wait to buy some tickets to Nottingham which I've heard isn't selling as well as the others. Are you dying? Oh you do need to cough? What's happening here? I need to cough. I think you to everyone that's been coming to the working progress shows. Yeah, they've been a lot of fun. Yeah, they've been good. And putting up with us changing bits and trying bits out because that's the point of the work in progress. So they went for Worsh they didn't want more Tisha? No, they're about calling their daughter, their daughter, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, their, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, th.

Lurch doesn't really get used for a tall person anymore, does it?
Starting point is 00:04:46 No, it doesn't, does it? When I was a kid, that was, the fucking here comes Lurch? Yeah, of course. But I think, I suppose the fact that she said predates the Netflix show shows that in her mind, the admonds family's family's kind. thome's kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind, I I I I I I the the the the the the the the the then, I's kind. thops. thops. thops. th. th. thatomedomedomedomedomeathea. th. the thathea. the the the 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 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. Well no but the first appearance was 1938. No I know they were a TV show but I mean when I was a kid the film starring Angelica Houston as Morticia and top level Christina Ritchie were fucking brilliant. That's amazing. Yeah so she must be young then the
Starting point is 00:05:15 person is wrote in because written in whatever what is it wrote in written in the person who's written written written written written written yeah well she must be young and not aware of the 91 film we're talking about. No but she says we were both fans of the Adams family but it implies that a lot of people that asked them don't know time moves on Rob we've just got a deal with it I suppose the new that netfit things is all about Wednesday. It is all the next favorite day Wednesday thi that the the the the the the the the the the the the the th 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 that I that I th I th I th I th I th I th is I th is I th is I tho th is I that I that that tho th is I th is I th is I th th is I th th is I th is I th th is I th th th th th I th I th I th I th I th I th I th I th I th I th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is that that that that that that that that that that that the that the that the the the the the the the the the the the the the thi thi th So that's the problem, the hump day. Have you seen it? Wednesday's my Willy's favorite day as well. I'm not, you're what? It's my least favorite day Wednesday.
Starting point is 00:05:47 That sounded, genuinely, like you said, Wednesday is my Willie's favorite day. Oh, when I'm it? And I was like, my Willie's favorite day. I know, I don't want to ever call it your Willie, because it's weird. And I don't want to know if it has a favorite day, and even if it does have a favorite day, I don't want to. Which is your willies favorite day? It hasn't got a favorite day. My bum hasn't got a favorite day, it's got a worst day, which is the end of the weekend when I've been eating badly. it Josh. I don't want to know I don't want to eat my dinner off it. No I'm just saying you could. Well I don't know if I could actually. What depends on we
Starting point is 00:06:29 having for dinner? Yeah I think also it would drastically alter our relationship to the point where the podcast would be over. Yeah that imagine going in for a meeting with Michael why don't you want to do a lad well Josh ate a vegetable lasagna off my bummer. What would you have to eat if if if if if if if if if if if to eat to eat to eat to eat to eat to eat to eat the the the to have the the the to have the the their their. I to have their. I their. I their. I their. I their. I their. I don't their. I th. I don't th. I don't th. Well. I don't th. I th. Well. Well. I th. Well. Well. I th. Well. Well. I I I I I I th. I I I I I th. I I I I I I th.

What do I have for dinner last night? Yeah. I had tofu. I know, what a life. I think that my bumble might make that more tasty, to be honest.
Starting point is 00:06:59 Finally, finally some seasoning. Finally! A bit of a flavor! Alright, let's get on to the correspondence. We've given the shout out to Wednesday. Interesting though, that my issue with different names for children is that if you have more than one kid, you can't have a child called Wednesday and the other ones are called like Stephen and Patrick. Yeah, yeah. You've got the first two names of Morris. Oh yes, yeah, yeah. So what a boring thing for me to say. Oh, you've done worse. I have. Any other people called Stephen you want to bring up? Well, no, Stephen Patrick Morris. Yeah, but don't try and rescue it now. I mean, I think that's quite is that come from your, is that a coincidence? Right, so you did QI, you've recorded QI, I, you've 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. thr, their, thr, thr, that, that, that, tho, th. th. th. th. th, th, th. th. th. th. th. Is, th. Is, th. Is, 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 th. the th. that, that, the that, the the that, the the that, the that, the that, the that, the that, that, that, that, th did QI, you've recorded QI, I don't know if it's gone on tell yet. Would you have said that on there as a quite interesting little fact?
Starting point is 00:07:47 Oh, honestly, they're not interested in interesting stuff like that. They're only interested in fucking fish, mate. Not fucking fish. Three separate questions on sea life. I've got nothing. I'm sat here. It's all about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about about the What's Tosvig that about fish? I'm reading a book about Barcelona versus Real Madrid. That's the kind of thing I'm interested in.
Starting point is 00:08:07 Not one tip bit about Pep Guardiola and Jose Marino's friendship before it all went wrong. Nothing about the dream team of Johann Kroif in the early 90s. Barcelona does have a massive aquarium. I'm sure it does. that out. And do you know what? It's also got a fantastic sponsor. But we're not going to get... That was the spot on Spotify. So yeah, so I've always enjoyed QI, but I'm play the role of the person that doesn't know anything about anything. But it's annoying because I do know stuff about things. Yeah. All the things I know about are things that don't come up. True. I enjoyed it when I did it but I've always th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th tho tho tho tho tho tho tho-I've tho-I've tho-I tho-I that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's tho. I've th. I've th. I've th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm the the the the the the the the the the the th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I've th. I've th. I've th. I've th. I've tho. I've tho. I've thooooo' thooooo' thooooooooo. I've that's that's that's that's th. I've th. I've things I know about are things that don't come up. True. I enjoyed it when I did it, but I've always been put off by going on it, because that's Alan's role really, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:08:48 The sort of I don't know. So you've done to tread on his toes. But he knows way more because he's been on QI for 20 years. So he knows fucking thoids about fish. Because my powerhick with comedians is, right? They get to a certain point where they don't really care about being funny anymore. They want to be taken seriously because they're 40 now and they've got kids and their family are like, are you still... I'm only two months away. Come on.
Starting point is 00:09:15 Don't trust the fucking guy. No, but you're good. You don't care about that. But there's a point in tho tho tho thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. tho' tho' they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. the. the. ta. ta' ta' ta' ta' ta' ta' ta' ta' ta' ta' ta' about being respected and making a difference and that's where funny goes to die. Yeah. Too right. And we see it a lot in a lot of comedians and you look at their eye and I just want to get them and grab them on the shoulders and go, you will make no difference in this world. You will say and write nothing that will change anything.
Starting point is 00:09:48 All you are is light-hearted fodder to take people's brains out of their brain and away from their world. You are nothing. And just see how they react to that. Because that's what we are. Yeah. Could you not just notice something about different types of cheese? Come on, mate. Come on. Cuss. Cuss. Let's chat about that. It's thick, isn't it? Think about the compartments of your fridge. What's the funniest one? Come on now. This is what we're here for. What about, you know, chip and pin, tap and go, what if it's called? Yeah. Yeah. the the the the the the the the the the the the th. th. th. th. th. th. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. Come, c.

Starting point is 00:10:25 Why don't we eat fudge anymore? Exactly. Come on, let's get some observations going. Let's distract. Let's just plow down and distract. Stop the voices going in people's heads. You can't change anything. Don't make them louder. Stop the voices. Here we go. Okay, right. Do you want some correspondence? Yeah. This is really us to let loose, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:10:48 Here we go. I love a good maze. Old person sanes from your kids. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Because that was my daughter saying I love a good maze. I love a good puzzle. Here her first birthday. th. th, hmm daughter said, Thank you. Have you got any clotted cream? What on her first birthday?
Starting point is 00:11:08 That's mental. Oh, her first birthday party. Oh, she went to another girls or boys party. Yeah. And asked for clotted cream there. This wasn't when she was one years of age. That would be quite impressive. What I've realized, Rob. Yeah, go on. From I love a good th. th. th. th. th. tho 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, th. th. tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, the first, the first, the first, the first, the first, the first, the first, the first, the first, the first, the first. Oh, the first. Oh, the first. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, tho. Oh, thoooooooooooo. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, thoooo. Oh, th. Oh any clotted cream, is these children talking as AOPs are me. That's the kind of thing you'd say.
Starting point is 00:11:30 They're all the kinds of things I'd actually say. We're laughing about how old they are, like their grandparents. We should be, three-year-old talking like Josh. Let's see if this one works for you. This is from Roxy about her daughter Naya. Yeah. She recent, oh this is the same girl that said about the clocked cream. Oh yeah. Recently tapping someone's back when they sneezed and said you're okay darling. Oh I wouldn't say that. I think they're just middle class these kids. Yeah that's a very polite kid. I've got a funny shaped eye, I've got a rugby ball eye and a round eye. So that's why I need glasses.
Starting point is 00:12:09 They're actually healthy, but because they don't match, it makes stuff out of focus. I'm not judging you, Rob. I'm not judging you. No, no, no, no. If it's the same for about 20 years of my life. So I always just ring up the people, I get my glasses off, when mine break, and I say, please can send me another pair with the same prescription. However, my prescription was so old, it was illegal for them to do that. What?
Starting point is 00:12:33 Because my prescription was like, 3 years out of day. I was like, okay, I understand that this is the legislation, but my eyes won't change. So I had to go spec seven to spend 25 quid to be to to be to to tell my eyes are fine. Yeah, fine. Again. Also, I've got a bit on my eye, right? This is, the make you laugh, where it's basically, just calcium deposits because my teeth aren't fucking big enough. Calcium deposits, the calcium kid, absolutely. Burst in a calcium there's like calcium growths on my optic nerve that have been there forever. It's like a birthmark, she said. Right. But that means every time I go
Starting point is 00:13:18 for an eye test it turns into DEFCOM 3 because I feel like someone's eyes about to explode. Oh my God. And I always have to go, no, no, no, no, and I explain it to him. But the only problem is, if my eye is about to explode, no one will take me seriously. Yeah, the boy who cried eye exploding. I'll be like, it's the old calcium. But it's not. The boy who cried, I went to the abooomkoomk, I'm, I'm, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to. to. to. the, the, to. to. to. to. to. to, is, is, is, is, is, is, to, is, to, is, is, to. to, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is. to. to. to. to, is. the, is. the, is. the, is. the, is. the, is. the, is. the, is. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the to the told. to to to about this, Rob? I was about to ask you why you're talking about this. I don't know what this anecdote is for. I went to the opticians. Yeah, but we haven't been talking about the opticians.
Starting point is 00:13:51 What, what are we talking? What am I talking about this? I don't know what? the UK. I don't know why... Two men talking about... There must have been a reason. Why did I start... What did you say to me before I started this? Is it about you okay, darling? No? What else are we talking about? That was it?
Starting point is 00:14:12 This is worrying. And I just said I went to 't know why I'm telling you. Is there an anecdote? I'm a massive figure. You're in the audition. You give me a potted history of your... I got distracted by a councior by. Yeah. Yeah, so you've got a rugby wall-shaped eye and a normal one. Yeah. And every 20, and you've had the same prescription for 20 years. Yeah, and I've to... I think that was it. th you. Yeah. I. I. I. I th you you th you 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 th th th th th th th th th th 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 I'm th. I I I 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.

No, that can't be. But why have you brought that up? I don't know. Oh my word. I don't know why I was talking. Anyway. I've got to get new glasses. I mean, that's double bound. Okay, come and give it to me. Well, I can feel my prescriptions are not strong enough anymore. I'm fully aware of it.
Starting point is 00:15:07 Well, I'm actually in the market for laser eye surgery, but I don't know where I'm to go and I'm scared. But I don't want to wear glasses anymore. Well, the good thing about that ever again. There must have been a fucking reason. Yeah, I'm thinking of going the other way. I'm thinking about going for more statementy glasses. And I know you're going to be excited about that. I like it. No, I'm excited about that. I like it's a good idea. I like it. I think that's a good idea. Yeah, 100 percent. Okay. All. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. th. that. th. that. th. th. th. th. th. th. that. 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. the 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 th.

That is, I think it's worrying though, isn't it? Why that happened? I wonder if any, how many people have rewound the podcast to see the segue into the anecdote? Ha haught.
Starting point is 00:15:51 There is a funny story from it though. When I got there, she said, have you got glaucoma, and I rung my dad, and he was like, no, no, no, my mom had my nan, his mom had glaucoma, my dad's just got cataracts and detached retinas, and went, yeah, but I do have dry eyes, and they water a lot, and they watered a lot, so you've got dry eyes. Yeah, because basically my eyes healthy, but there's not enough lubrication on them because, and then he said this out loud on speakerphone, and the optician nearly pissed herself laughing,

No, no, he went, yeah, so they're not lubricated enough, they're dry, but even though they're water they're water they're water they're water they're water water water water water water water water water water my brains don't tell them to get wet. And the optician lost her mind. I hung up, what, is that right? And she went, yeah, it's that right, apart from the brains bit. It was worth it. I'm really worried about that. I'm going to have to listen back to that and try and work out what Yeah, I probably won't either, to be honest. Back to school signals a fresh start for students. New classmates, new teachers, new lessons. Change is in the air. But one thing hasn't changed.

If the forward government won't change, it's time to change the government. Our kids are counting on us. Join us at Building Better Schools.

Starting point is 00:18:08 Go on. So my friend told me this that he... It doesn't even need to be funny at this point, it just needs to be a story. I didn't even deliver an unfunny anecdote. It wasn't even an anecdote. So, um, you know when your child... I remembered why I was telling you. So I was in Bromley and I went to the Opticians I got sidetracked. What I saw in Bromley and I was talking about kids. No, right? The whole thing was on your way to the opticians. You've got to be fucking kidding me. Oh my life that's bad is it? So no outside of the opticians I saw a kid and I still don't know why I'm telling you this but but but I'm this but I'm this but I'm this but I'm this but I'm this but I'm thin you this but I'm thin th I'm thin thin th th I'm th th I'm th th th thin th I'm th thin. thin. the the thin. thin' thin' thi. that I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm that I that I that I that I that I that I that I'm I that I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm th. th. th.

There was a little boy I'd say about 18 months old in a buggy with a woolly out on it, a Millwall one, and on the top of it he said no one likes us, we don't care.
Starting point is 00:18:51 Yeah, classic. And he's 18 months old. Is that it? Sorry. I thought that would be better. I'm afraid of audition stuff. Do you want to hear an anecdote about what someone said to my friend in hospital? Please, yeah, just get me out of my hole. Because it's parenting based.
Starting point is 00:19:23 Thanks. Yeah. So you know when you have your kid and um... Yeah, yeah, yeah. And they come around and do the hearing test. Yes. So they're in the hospital and they're in for a couple of extra days for whatever reason. Baby's a couple of days old and the guy comes around to do the hearing test where they check the child's hearing. Sorry woman. And she goes, um. I think we could sharpen all these stories up, you know. Why did it matter if it was a matter or woman? We're just so panicked by gender now.
Starting point is 00:19:54 As woke comedians. We've done one email. Go ahead. So she says, you know when you're not confident in anecdote anyway? Confidence is low. Confidence is really low. I feel like Marcus Rashun before the World Cup. I just can't get it away.
Starting point is 00:20:11 I can't finish it. Oh God, it's like play with a golf ball. So she says, I would play with a golf ball, but it'd be easier to score with a golf ball, wouldn't it? That's a cricket phrase as well. I got confused. I'm disastrous. Okay. Okay. We're at the hospital.
Starting point is 00:20:34 This is a good addict. Yeah. So the nurse comes around and she goes, um, is there any history of hearing problems in the family? Yeah. And my friend, dad, he goes, yeah, I was born deaf in one ear. And she goes, do you know the reason for that? And he said, well actually, what happened was I was originally a twin, but then my mom had a miscarriage. And so I lost the sister in the early stage of pregnancy and my
Starting point is 00:21:08 family thought that maybe the trauma of that is what led to me being deaf in one ear. Okay and she looked up at him and went so should we put you down as not sure? That really got us out of a hole. That was a good anecdote though. Did you know what that was? That was just bottom corner from the penalty spot, confidence is back. But do you know what the message? Apparently the parents in the next thing behind the curtain just burst out laughing. Listen to that whole thing? Well, I the parents in the next thing behind the curtain just burst out laughing. Listen to the whole thing. Well I think it's those weird things that you and your family talk about.
Starting point is 00:21:52 And then they get like, when it gets said to like medical professional, you feel so so stupid. Yeah, yeah. You've really opened up. You've not slept in two days. You've laid your soul bare. So that's not sure then. Okay. Probably all my trauma. And also whenever you say it talk about you're in trauma if someone just really cuts it goes probably the trauma is like yeah so not not sure the old trauma kid don't know. All that trauma. Oh dear right should you do some more emails?
Starting point is 00:22:23 Yeah yeah. Here we go, what we got here. Please don't be about eyes. Okay. There's a lot about- Oh no, Rob, I'm at a disaster. Oh no, what's happened? My earphones have stopped working. This is fucking unbelievable. You run out of charge? I can't hear you. I can't hear what's going on.
Starting point is 00:22:41 Oh no. This operation really needs to be smartened up. Hello? Is that good? Can hear me? Hello? Can you hear me? Oh no. I can't even find the zoom because I've hidden it. I can't hear if you're enough. I don't, I can't hear anything. Why is it not making sound? Shit it out. So, I can't hear. To me fair, you didn't need to hear most of my anecdotes so far. I can see your lips moving, but... Yeah, well, I don't want to suggest.
Starting point is 00:23:21 The problem is, my earbands have lost charge. Fuck. And this wire is broken. I don't know what to suggest. The problem is, my earbands have lost charge. Charged. Oh, fuck. And this wire is broken. Right. Have you got any other headphones? Hello?
Starting point is 00:23:32 Hello? Hello. Do you have any other headphones? Yeah, I can hear you now because I'll put you on the mic. What about your kids' headphones? That'll the on to charge for one minute because they're charging like two minutes as a fullback for when I... Wait there.
Starting point is 00:23:51 I love watching Scurry out of the room. Scurry out of the room. I'm back. Right, cool. So there will be enough charge of one headphone, and then I'll just keep swapping between them and charging the other one. Right. Okay, so how much charge have you got on that headphone?
Starting point is 00:24:17 We'll see. Hello? Yeah, it's working. Yeah, so how much charge have you got? I can see because it's on my computer rather than I, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th,. Yeah, so how much charge have you got? I can't see because it's on my computer rather than on my... Oh, I can click here. Now you can't see on your computer, you can only see on your own. If okay, well when that died. But the other to headphones charging, so there's one in there.
Starting point is 00:24:35 And you can put the other one in when it goes? When this dies, so I can just go between. That's got a good idea. Yeah. Good problem selver, right you, Josh. I'm more of a problem creator. That's the... Well, you create as many problems as I do, you know, I'm quite going to solve it. Yeah. You're pretty good with hangovers, aren't you? Yes, I'm an alcoholic, yes, I, uh... Both days. Right, here we go. I've got a lot of the worst smells you've ever smelled.
Starting point is 00:25:07 Oh, let's do the worst smells you've ever smelled. Okay, I don't know if people like it though. There we go. This is a walling if you're eating or anything. Okay. Many years ago, we had a shed in the garden that had a small boxed thrown in it when we ordered too much shopping, take note Josh. One day we had a power cut that meant we lost all the stuff in the freezer as it had defrosted and the contents needed to be thrown away.
Starting point is 00:25:30 We re-froze it all and waited for the bin day and I emptied everything apart from a frozen lump in the bottom. Oh no. to turn it off, then empty it in the morning. Now because we didn't use it much, and we had kids to run around after it became that I'll do that tomorrow job. Oh no. Well, tomorrow didn't come for a couple of months. Whoa, so the freezer's been off for a couple of months. So they turned it, basically, they've emptied everything out.
Starting point is 00:25:56 And it was frozen again, that's that was stuck, that's that's to to to it tomorrow. Yeah. When it had defrosted to flob it. Anyway, this went on for a couple of months. And I went to empty the freezer, and then what I thought would these are some bread or chips, hard to distinguish because it was covered in loads of frost the last time we saw it, it turned out to be a chicken. Oh no. Which had now putrified. Oh my God. And was just slimy green juice in the freezer. Oh, fucking Nora. Despite tying two t-t-shirts around my face and trying to hold my breath. I'll never forget that groom run some. It went up my nostrils. Toby. Brutal. Oh my god. Tony, you poor boss. Toby. Toby. Toby. Toby. Oh my god. Toby. Yeah. Jobs. Tobes. Oh my. Oh my th. Oh, oh. Oh, oh, I I I I I I I I I I I I I. Oh, I. Oh, I. Oh, I. Oh, I. Oh, I. Oh, I. Oh, I. Oh, I. Oh, I. Oh, I. Oh, I. Oh, I. Oh, I. Oh, I. Oh, I, I, I, I'll. Oh, I'll. Oh, I'll. Oh, oh, I'll.

Toby, Toby, Toby. Quite fun name Toby. Oh my God. Toby! Yeah. Jobs.
Starting point is 00:26:47 Okay, I'll do, um, is that another smell one? Oh, there's a couple more smell ones, here we go. We'll do one there, we'll do another one another time. Okay. Oh, hello you beauties. I was temping for a cleaning company to get a to the to get. the to get. the the to get. the to get. the extra cash whilst travelling around Australia with my mrs. One day I was clearing a property that unknown to me had been left unattended for quite some time. Bering in mind this was in the blazing heat of Australia. Yeah. In the top floor apartment I know is the fridge freezer was taped, shut.
Starting point is 00:27:15 Oh my God. It looked heavy and I think there has ever been. Imagine a deeply rotting animal carcass. Oh my God. This was accompanied by the sound of a mixture of maggot, sludge and juice plopping onto the floor splashing up my shins. Oh my God. I'm feeling sick. I quickly shut the door and tried to the door and try to to the smell. And to to the smell. S up the stairs, I don't know what I tried to hide as a smell was a huge giveaway, let alone the rancid debris on the floor and all up my legs. After an extended coffin and gagging fit, he said, Billy mate, never opened up a taped fridge. Ha ha ha ha ha! That old saying. That's a classic. We thought it was best to crack on us.
Starting point is 00:28:07 It was almost home time. We didn't want to have to come back to this horrible scenario in the morning. We had to carry it down three fights of stairs, rotting sludge juice and maggots seeping out of the now poorly taped up door, agitated by every lower end. I got covered in the stuff. My boss had to be the the lower end. I got covered in the stuff. My boss had to stop to be sick nearly every ten minutes. Oh my God. We were both gagging and eyes were stinging the whole way down. I had to go back and clean the property the following day and found out it had been left unattended for over three months. Oh my God. Thanks for the last Billy
Starting point is 00:28:39 Billy. Never. Billy mate. Never open a tight fridge. Poor old Billy. Oh my God, it's such an awful feature. I hate it too. But I want more all the time. I hate it. I'm sort of addicted. We've got one more and then it's over.
Starting point is 00:28:58 Should we do it and then we never do it ever again? And then people can know it's over. Yeah, okay. Hi guys. I've just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just 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 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. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the the th. thi. the the th. the th. th. th. th. th. to. to. to. to. th. th. th. I've just listened to your most recent episode and had to get in touch with the worst smell ever is also one of my biggest parenting fails. This only happened the other day. We have one of those Tommy-Tippy nappy bins, other brands available, I'm sure. It's not the BBC, say what you want here. They get pretty full of the tho' the the the the the the thuuuuu. I thu.

Starting point is 00:29:27 do school pickup. Well I forgot didn't I? Which would be fine if it wasn't for our appropriately named dog Maverick. Oh no. Who tore the nappy bin bag to shreds. Eating the contents of the nappies as he went. Not wanting to limit his fun to one room, he drags the bin bag down the stairs into the living room to finish his snack party in there. When we got home, the smell hit us as soon as we walked through the door. My five-year-old immediately asked him why it smelled like a cow field, poo napies everywhere. It was easy the worst thing I'd ever smelled from Annabelle. Oh my God, that is horrible. But when people go, we don't deserve dogs. Do you know what I think we do?
Starting point is 00:30:08 We don't deserve some dogs. Some dogs are deranged. Yeah. That's too much. What is the dog thinking? Yeah. Because it knows it's not food. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:30:22 Deep thinkers. I suppose it was at one point. True. Deep thinkers, dogs, actually. Oh my God. Yeah. Do you want to do a story or do you want me to do some more stories? Yeah, I'm struggling there, Rob. That was awful. Right, you feel sick. Right, okay, let's go back to the old faithful. I've got, we should say, the top three greatest boomers exclusive to the live guys. Yeah, here we go. But then I'm sure we'll end up doing on here at some point as well, won't we, to share their love? Rob. Rob, you're not brilliant the word exclusive. Yeah, of course we will. There's only so much content. There's only. There's only so much so much so much so much so much so much so much the their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. their their th. th. th. their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their th. th. th. th. th. th. th. three three three three three three three three three three three three three three three three three three th. thoooooooo. th. th. th. the. th. th is not Rob. They're not Rob. We've only got so much content we'll do
Starting point is 00:31:05 everything about three times. I bet there's people at home tallyed gone. We've fucking heard that story about the opticians before. Oh God, it's worrying if I ever repeat that one. Did I ever tell you about that time where I went to the opticians and they checked my eyes and then what happened? I got a prescription and went.. Yeah the their their their their their their their their their their their their prescription and their prescription and their prescription and their prescription and their prescription and their prescription and their prescription and their prescription and their prescription and their their prescription. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm their. I got a prescription. I got a prescription. I got a prescription. I got a prescription. I got a prescription. I got a prescription. I got a prescription. I got a prescription. I got a prescription. I got a prescription. I got a prescription. I got a prescription. I. I got a prescription. I. I got a prescription. I.

I'm a there. Here we go. Boomer story. My parents born in the 60s became parents to parents to kids. By the way, are you still on the same earbar? Yes, they charged so quickly the old airpods. Respect the charging. Okay, here we go. My parents born in the 60s became parents to three kids themselves in the late 80s, early 90s. Pretty much epitomize the boomer. particularly my dad, Samsung Dave. Samsung Dave? Yeah, he was called Dave and sold Samsung stuff. Brilliant. He had some classic boomer moments.
Starting point is 00:31:48 One that really sticks with me is the time I lost my beloved cat, Ben. One day, Ben didn't come home. I took to the streets with hand-drawn posters of a black cat and of course the landline number, stuck them to lampose and urged neighbors to check the the neighbors their neighbors to check their ne ne ne days later we got some intel. A black cat had been spotted by a cyclist in a grass verge about half a mile away. In true boomer style, my dad pointed out, this would be a good opportunity to blow the dust off my bike. Burn a few calories off
Starting point is 00:32:14 and go make sure it wasn't Ben. Yeah. As an optimistic 30-year-old who obviously still believed the glass was half full, I'd done my helmet and t to myself well he must know it's not Ben and just wants me to get some exercise. When we got there of course it was Ben flat as a pancake stiff as a board. Oh my oh no no no no no no slung into a bush like an abandoned banana skilled. The scene was horrified thankfully I got a pat on the back from Samsung Dave who proceeded to scoot to a safe face plastic bag hooked it over my task-up to to to to to to to to to to the to the the the the the the to the the the their their their their their their their their their their their their their to their their th th their their. the. th. th. th. the. their. their. their is their is their is their. their is their is their is their. their. their. their. their. their. their is is. their. their. their is is is. their is. their is their their their their their their the. the is the is the is the is the is the is to theat. tape is ttape is tape. tape. tape. the is the is the is the is the is their handlebars, then encourage us to take the long way home as dead Ben slapped against my knee on every push. How is this making it better after the smell once? I'm so traumatized by the cycle ride. I fled to my bedroom where I watched the funeral unfold from my window as I balled
Starting point is 00:32:58 my eyes out for my death. The funeral! Still disgust this day. My dad maintains it was character building and grief is a part of life. So what Sarah is saying there is, Samsung Dave knew it, the cat was dead on the side of the road. And rather than go in to sort it himself and say yes, he had died. He made a 13-year-old cycle there to see it for herself. Oh my god, that is brutal. That is why I'm with Apple. That's why you can't go Android. For that kind of sick behavior. For the Samsung Galaxy can fuck off if that's the way their employees behave. Unless they want us to say a little advert for them, then they can sort of... Yeah, of course. I like that.
Starting point is 00:33:39 I just think that thing where the phone folds out it's actually a very good feature if they've got the money for me to say that. If anything Samsung you can fuck off or fuck in come on board. Here we go. It's better to be pissing out the tent than have them pissing in isn't it? Yeah, I don't know what that means but yeah. That's a political tactic. Is it? Yeah. So what do you do? So if you've got someone? Yeah. So if someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone. one who's trouble. Like say Boris Johnson when Theresa May was Prime Minister. Yeah he's trouble. He's trouble. She knows he's trouble but you put him in the cabinet and the theory is it's better to have him in the cabinet pissing out
Starting point is 00:34:14 than have him pissing in. Sure of the tent. Or the tent. Yeah. Okay cool that makes it about keep your friends close, enemies close. Yeah. But don't piss on the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the te. te. te. te. te. tea. tease. tease. tent. tent is tent is tent. tent. tent. tent. tent. tent. te is te is te is te is te is te is te is te is te is te is te is te is te is te is te is te is te is te is te is te is te is te is te is te is te is te is te is te is te is te is te is te is tea. tea. tea. tea.ea.ea. tea.ea. tea. tea. t, enemies close.

If you are into pissing on each other, scatological stuff and you want to advertise on here, more than welcome. Exactly.

Hi Robin Josh, following on from your pre-Christmas episode and getting your knob out in the kitchen. It make, you remember this? Oh yeah, yeah. Well, we said that and then Michael cut it out of the Christmas episode. It made me laugh out loud and brought back a memory for when I was cooking dinner and was getting our dinner out of the oven. No. No. to. to. the the the the to. the the to. 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. th. the the the th. th. th. th. th. th. their their their their their their their their the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the 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.

That is not the time to get the old fella out. Well, she was getting the food out the oven, and her husband decided to get his knob out and flash me. What?
Starting point is 00:35:12 So she's getting the food out the oven at 200 degrees. He's husband screaming in horror and calling me all the names under the sun. Luckily he didn't have any burns, but funnily enough, he's never got his... He's never got his knob out in the kitchen again. Please keep me anonymous. It's the only way to learn. It'll kill me. Love the podcast the book the book in the kitchen again. Please keep me anonymous. It's the only way I'll learn. It's the only way to learn. Love the podcast in the book.
Starting point is 00:35:48 Keep doing what you do in its age from Annon. Quite rightly, Annon. I would pay a lot of money to watch that man's face in the seconds before and after the oven glove. Nob grab. That might be. I wonder other people like oven gloves and sex. They're quite kind of, I could see that. That's quite cozy, isn't it? That feels like you've been wanked off by a tele-selovey though. Yeah, well, you know, I wouldn't say no. Okay, let's try and keep this pure. Wouldn't say Poe. It's been, oh, thank you. Josh.

My dad blessed him sat next to us eating his sandwiches while back streets back and all the other hits boomed around the M-EN-N-N-A-N-Ea. He did get up and have a little sing along eventually. Thanks for your laughs and giggles have wreaked. R&J, Janine Kenya. Kenya! Kenya! It's exciting, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:38:09 I want to go on a safari with the kids. Do you? Yeah. Too young, I think, I think, I think, I think, as in Kenya, the giraffe's heads come in through the windows while you're eating breakfast and they eat off the same tables as you. Yes, is that what you want? That's what I want to do, Ron. That's my anecdote.

Hello? You're back in the game? I'm back. Perfect. Yeah. I've just read this one from Katrina it really made me laugh Josh. This is weird things you've
Starting point is 00:39:14 accidentally ordered when exhausted from parenting or otherwise. Great. I was once so tired and sleep deprived I accidentally ordered a bathtub to my work office. But what? Rather than my home? Oh my God. What? Worst part is they wouldn't take it away? Ha ha ha ha ha! Can you imagine you're sat at work? Going, oh my bathtub's getting delivered today, yeah, my neighbours said you'd let them in with it, yeah, that's exciting. Uh, there's a parcel for you, Katrina, at the front desk. I haven't ordered it in it. It's your bath. Oh my God, they wouldn't take it away.
Starting point is 00:39:51 That is brutal. Name and shame next to I'm Katrina. To be fair though, you should have to pay for second delivery. Yeah, fine, but I think they should go. they're in a pickle. thap all all. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. tho. tho. tho. tho. they're thi. they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're. they're they're. they're. they're. they're. thi. thi. thi. thi. the. thea. thea. tho. toa. toa. toa. toa. toa. thooooooooooooooooooo.

Right, another one, things you've ordered when exhausted. I'm enjoying these.
Starting point is 00:40:32 Yeah, they're good. Here we go. Ages ago, you did a feature about silly things you've done when you're tired, embarrassing things you've forgotten. In lockdown, getting an online shop, my husband managed to get a Morrison shop, but we were also getting food for his elderly parents who are isolating. They prefer Sangebree, so he managed last minute. What he forgot to do was cancel the Morrison's delivery. To secure the delivery, you had to spend 40 pound. So you had put in a reasonably priced bottle of whiskey with the thought of removing it and doing the actual shop later. One night the doorbell rang and you guessed it, it was Morrison's with our one single bottle of whiskey. The delivery man looked at us holding our newborn child with utter disgust.
Starting point is 00:41:13 Catherine. Oh, that is an expensive old bottle of whiskey for a today. 40 quid for a week's time. Have you ever done that thing where you send a delivery to someone else's house? A bit of fun? No, never. Oh, that's fun. Who have you done that too? Like a friend, like, you know, someone will say something and you'll go, hate whoever, say Richard Maidley. Nelson Mandela. Tell you I hate, Nelson Mandela and then you think, okay, it's a bit dodged.
Starting point is 00:41:51 I'm going to order them, five copies of Nelson Mandela's Long Walk to Freedom and send them to their house. Oh, no, I've not done that. I've done, been in Weatherspoons and sent a fried egg to tasks. Yeah, that's fun. That is fun. Do you a quick one about finding sex toys? Yes, please. Hi, Robin Josh, listening to the latest episode and Rob mentioned children must have found their parents sex toys. I remember the time now my 15-year-old cousin was about three or four years old. His mom was selling An Summers and Summers products. The parties at home with Dilldoze in dressing up and lots of drinks. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. their their their their their their their their their th. th. their. th. th. th. to th. th. to 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 to to toys. Yes.

We found him in his mom's bed with various sex toys and lingerie scattered around the room and cuddling a turned-on rampant rabbit vibrator fast asleep. A lock was put in a suitcase after that. Oh thank God! He was three or four then. I thought it was the 15-year- year old and I was like fucking hell that's mental. No! Just cuddling a vibrator. He was three or four. Gee, I mean I remember being a sort of hauly teenager I never, I've never spooned a vibrator of you. No. That was when it was about, so just thought it was toys, three or four year old. Oh Jesus. Yeah. Sweet though, isn't it? threat. thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the thi. th. th. th. th.

If you couldn't get your baby to sleep, except by putting a vibrator, vibrating into their cot for them to sleep with,
Starting point is 00:43:31 would you do it? This sounds worse, but I'd insert it into a teddy. So they could hug the teddy, not the actual vibrate. I think that's okay, because it's all new product, isn't it? I think that is really problematic if it's a, one that's still in a, still in its prime mip. These are demonstration. Yeah, did your mom ever have an Ansummer's party, Robb. Yes, no, she did actually.
Starting point is 00:43:57 She sold it, but we found the order book so I knew whose mom had a vibrator. Your mom th is is is is th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. I th.

It wasn't until a few hours after my son was safely delivered that my husband told me he needed to go and get dressed. I asked him what he meant. It turns out that because he'd never worn scrubs before or been in an operating fear, he didn't, he, he, he, he, he, he, he their, he their, he th, he didn't realize you just put them over your clothes. He had stood near to me and countless of amazing professionals who helped deliver the baby in theatre completely naked. But for scrubs, no, boxers, no sons, nothing. Anonymous. Really strong.
