Hello, I'm Rob Beckett. Hello, I'm Josh Winnockham. 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're 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.

Say Rob Beckett. I like that. That's a very strong, confident middle class family. Where did he come? I'm Michael. Michael. Well done. I like that. That's a very strong, confident middle class family. Well, he did start, hey slags love the pot. Yeah, but that's being sort of post-like laddie culture, ironic, isn't it? I've been listening since the start and tried for the past two years to get one of these. Fortunately, my daughter was in a good mood this week and went for it. Adding Michael helped. Hope he appreciates the shout out. See you guys in a few weeks straight after my son's birthday party. Not sure what

I'm more excited about. Keep it sexy and relatable. Adam, stiff neck, you're right, 480 months, and Juliana loose neck, 32 months, living in London. He says, he's seeing us, is that the tour I assume. He's not just going to turn up our house. Yeah. Yeah. to. to. to, I's, I's, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, to, to, to, th. th. th. th. thi, th. th. th. th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. I's, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. thi. thi. theean, thean, thi. thi. the thean, thi. the thi. the, I assume? He's not just going to turn up or else? Yeah, I'd hope so. Josh, you know I'm sort of like the slightly more... I thought I'm slightly neurotic at points, but I'm a little bit more laid back at the pair of us when it comes to work commitments, aren't I? I think a little bit is probably kind to me. Okay, well, I don't know. I watched that National Lottery BBC musical show. Have you seen that one Jason Manford hosts? No, no.

It's on BBC One, they just do loads of different shows from musicals. So there'll be an arena full of fans of musicals and then he brings them all out. And then he brings them all out like a big sort of package show of different, there was Matilda, all stuff like that. And they did a while. Manford's there, he's obviously sings in the middle, he loves it. Do you know what, I love Manford. He just loves it. He's up there, quality jokes, just banging out a song, see it later. He's so smiley. Anyway, you just made me laugh how much he was enjoyed it. But they did a wide shot of Manchester Arena and my head completely went. Ha ha ha ha ha ha! Because I was like, fucking hell! Look how big it is! We've got to do our show in there!

It's mental, Rob. It's so big! I've been to Manchester Arena three times and I've seen Radiohead the Manic Street Preachers and Coldplay. Many laughs? No, absolute pompous punch of wankers. What's the crowd patter like there between those three. I don't remember Radiohead being a laugh. If I had to get one of those on the show, yeah. For a laugh, I think the manics would be the funniest. Really? I'd say Chris Martin. Anyway, my head completely went, and she went, what's going on? Lou? My

head's gone. Look how big that is. She went, why does it matter to you? That's that, that's the room? That's that's, the room, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, I th. I th. I th. I th. I the, I the, I the, I the, I the, I the, I, I the, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, th, th. th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I thin, thin, th. th. thin, th. th. th. th. th. th. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. I tha, fuck off. And I went, oh yeah, I wouldn't want to do that. That does look scary. Is that not the right answer? You should say, don't worry, it'll be great. So you know they've like, we started with 300 seats and they've eased it up. There is a slight jump. Yes. So we're easing it in and then we're doing 1,500 and then we go into the one in Manchester which is 12,000. It's more than 12,000 I think isn't it? Oh for fuck, 14,000. Oh God.

Because Barbar Castle is about 100 and then it's slowly increased and then we did Canterbury which was about 900 and then we're going up to Brighton which is 15 hundred then it's quite a quite th...... th. th. imes the size, isn't it? Yeah, it's 10 times the size. So, yeah, it'd be fine, no, isn't it? Just more people to laugh, isn't it? Exactly, Rob! More people to bloody laugh? Anyway, so a joke is a joke is a joke. toe, whatever room to get an appointment, because I've got an infected, I think I've infected toe now, which is disgusting, isn't it?

I've got a sore toe, and also I've got this sinusitis that I had before, but I can't get rid of it. I think I might have chronic sinusitis. I'm so long. I've been snogging my mother-in-law. Well, not recently, no. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I've. I've. I've. I've. I've. I've. I've th. I've th. I've th. I've th. I've the the the the the the the their. I've got a their. I've got a snough. I've got a sore. I've got a sore. I've got a sore. I've got a sore. I've got a sore. I've got a sore. I've got a sore. I've got a sore. I've got a sore. I've got a sore. I've got a sore. I've a sore. I've a snogged. I've a snogged. I've a snogged. I've a snogged. I've a snogged. I've. I've a th. I've a th. I've a th. I've a th. I've a ssoe. I've got a sore. I've got a sore. I've got a sore. I've got a sore. I've got a sore. I've got a sore. I've got a sore. I've got a sore. I've got a sore. I've got a sore. I've got a sore. I've got a sore. I've it. I had antibiotics and it sort of went and then I went to Korea. I've just got back from Korea. I was filming in Korea and it got really bad in Korea. And I was basically just like filming and then getting drunk after filming because it was to deal with the jet-lag so like rather I'm going to sleep at six o'clock and then waking up at 2 a night out you can of have a drink and stay awake. And then the sinusitis got really bad and it's so far career. It's like seven hours to Wdabby then 10 hours from Abu Dhabi. And I googled, what helps sinusitis? And he said you must rest. I was like, well, I'm not really doing that. No flying. I've done 17 hours.

No drinking, just done six pints. I was like, no one. I was like, I've done everything. And then obviously, it got really bad. They had to fly back. And then it got bad again. So I think I might need some. I rang the doctors, Josh to get an appointment, Josh, to get an appointment. You have to ring at eight, but I couldn't ring at eight because I was busy. I rang at 8.30 and I managed to get appointment for five to three in the after that. That's pretty good, right? And she said, can I take your name? Yeah, what's the matter? And I said, I've got an infected toe and I've got sinusitis that I just can't shift. And she went, right? And I also also also tha tha tha 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 get to get to get to get to get to get tooicicitis. tooicitis. I managed to get to get tooom point tooom point tooom point tooomatement tooomatement tooomatement to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to to to to thiapapapapapapapape. thiape.

And she said that's the worst thing about you. No, I went, I've got a sore toe, I've got sinusitis, I can't shift, and I've got two small children. Ah, yeah.

But I don't think you've got anything that can help with that. Really nice. Just a bit of fun. Absolutely. Absolutely. hour, don't they? And I just thought, let's try and get her on side. I said that, complete silence. To the point where I thought the phone had gone. And pardon? Pardon? Oh no, don't, don't, don't repeat in that situation. As she went in to pardon? I went, you didn't. You didn't? What? went in again! What? And two too kids, but I don't think you've got much to help with it.

Oh God, oh God. And then she said, hmm, I think you said that. Oh, oh, fuck, Nora. Yeah, yeah, you were right. I did say that. She went, okay. Well, I'm going to put down poorly-I-I-I-I-I-I-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-s, I-s, I-s, I-s, I-s, I-s, I-s, I-s, I-s, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm to-s. I'm to-s. Oh, I'm to-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a, I'm that, I'm that, I'm that, I'm to, I'm to, I'm to, I'm to-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-s. Oh, I'm to-s. Oh, I'm to-s. Oh, I'm to-s. Oh, to-sa-sa two things. Put down sinusitis don't put down poorly to because you're not a Victorian child. I know but I can't walk at the moment I'm hobbling so I thought to go to sign a sysitis. So I'm going to go to sinusitis. So I think you go to goitis, and he goes, right, okay, and then I'll start taking my socks off and like, go, have a look at that.

What do you recommend him? Yeah, I'd lead with the toe. Poorly, isn't he? So, leave with the toe. I've got to be a sore toe. I might need some antibiotics. appointment talking about this. Please. Yeah, I just say like I'm going to quickly tell you about my sew and then in the three minutes left, can we talk about my sinusitis? Or I'm trying to tell him about the toe, but I'll keep coughing and blowing my nose. Yeah, that's a good idea. So what's happened to the toe? So I sort of, I cut it a bit on the nail. I've tap. tot it, I've tot it, I've tot it, I've tot, I've tot, I've tot, I've tot, I've tot, I've tot, I've tot, I've tot, I've tot, I've tot, I've tell, I've tell, I've tell, I'm tell, can't tell me tell me tell me tell me tell me tell me their tell me tell, can tell, can their tell, can tell, can tell, I'll tell, I'll tell, I'll tell, I'll tell, I'll tell, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll tot, I'll tot.

I'm not sure about how often that water gets changed in this baths. So I don't know if that's helped it. So I'm in the wars Josh, but I'm plowing on.

You're doing a lot of walking. I'm doing a lot of walking. Romash just got in my head actually Robbush.

That's the absolute key. Right. He also goes to the gym six times a day now. Does he? Not six times a week. That'd be insane. I was going to say, my 10,000 steps I'm going to help if he's going to the gym. Well, he does everything six times a day.

He does tells you where it is, but it won't tell you how to walk there. Why not? Because of only maps are only allowed to be on domestic servers, not international ones, because of North Korea, I don't know. Oh, because of North Korea. I tried to get the subway, because my foot was hurting.

It's like proper, there's not much tourism. It's not a huge holiday hotspot soul, is it? Honestly, I saw a ginger man walk past and I did a double take.

I was like, what is that? Because everyone was just Korean, right? And- Did you go up to him and go, please help me? Please be my friend. It's weird actually.

What are we fucking like in Korea, me and you, right? It was just all Koreans. Romesh saw one of a South Asian person. One Indian man gave Romish a high five, but it was very just Korean. There's not many tourists there.

I tried to get a ticket on my card, it wouldn't let me. So then I had to go and get cash out, but nothing's in English, so I'm sort of just guessing at it, right? Because I'm like, look, let's not be British about this, let's go out and explore this new place. Let's come on the subway, had to go three stops, got off, no Wi-Fi, because my free G weren't working, so I got, so I got, I'm free, I found the station, and then everything's in Korean, right? Everyone's Kareem. I'm just like, oh, I'm just like, I'm just like, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I've just, I've just, I've just, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've th. th.

Are you on your own? Yeah, then I saw this little white, blonde, westerner come up and I said, hello, she said, hello, and she was German but spoke English, and I said, I've done it wrong, I don't know

what to do now, and she went, what have we done? And then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and th then, and th th th th th th th th th th th and th th and th and th and th and th and th and th and th and th and th and th and tho, and tho, and I said, and I s s s s s s s s s s s' tho, and I said, and I said, tho, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, th......

And then I showed her, then as I explained to her, she copied me, I locked her out as well. What? No. So now we're both both try to find someone to help, and then now we're wandering around like we're a couple. Everyone just assumes we're together because we're white. That was awful. And then eventually we w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w. 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. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th.

Just said, please. And she laughed and let me through. Because on the tip I had, if I'd bunked it, I'd basically bunked a 40-P fair two-stops.

I mean, it weren't like a great crime. It was yeah. It was quite tiring being in Korea. It's a cool place though, but um... Yeah. I think the odds are against me ever going to Korea probably. Well, I can't... We'll see. See a scenario. We'll see.

When we do our final episode as I'm dying, we can go, just to recap. to recap the to that. When do, when do, about six years' time is that? Your current, yeah, the way I'm feeling, yeah. Apologies for the career, divergent and divergent? Is that right? Or is that a COVID term? I can't remember. A diversion. Diversion.

Finn tau-ta' to to to to to to to to th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. the the the the the 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. th. th. th. th. thea. tha. tha. than. than. toda. toda. toda. ta. taieea. ta. ta. ta. ta. ta. taiea premature birth and premature babies. Is that the way you say it? I think it probably is. It's quite a stressful story of the birth. But yeah, Finn Taylor, very funny and very interesting story, but yeah, if you're not up for a premature baby chap, probably gives this one a swerve. Yeah,

going to listen to Acast and Gamble talking about Narnbred or whatever. This is Fen Taylor. Hello and welcome to the podcast Finn Taylor. Comedian parent coffee drinker. Yes, guilty on all fronts. Hand me in. What would you describe yourself as first in order? Wreck, I'd say, I'd say sort of husk. Well, you do look a little bit wired today.

Are you alright? Is it in a stressful day? Yeah. Well, it's because we're staying in a, we're having building work done because we brought a fixer up her. Oh, because my wife, well, that's the end of the sentence, because my wife. She likes that sort of thing thing. Put your own stamp on it. Yeah, yeah. I'd just quite like a place to sit down in. The thing is you're adding value, Finn. Have you heard the phrase adding value yet? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We do with that phrase, that concept.

We bought it just before the whole Ukraine thing. So we're now just kind of trying to level out the mortgage increases that are going to hit us next th year, so it means that the commute to nursery is like 35 minutes, 40 minutes in traffic. That was my life then for the three years. So I'm getting up early, getting her in the car. I'm just like passing snacks back sort of constantly. So you're further away from the nurseries, you were then now? Yeah, the nurseries at the end of our roads. where do you live? Sydney. Oh really close yeah I'm close everyone's coming southeast is the future yeah yeah great sanitaries you've got in

Sydney supposedly the biggest in the southeast oh it's like a stand at a football stadium it's got a lint door pick and mix. Wow yeah sushi sushi. It's an unbelievable sanita. It's a tou-sooshe. It's an the the the their. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. the. the. the. the. Oh. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S.

So what's all this then, the kind of thing? Yeah, I think it was a bit like that. It just looked like a fishmonger's having a breakdown. Just let him crack on. Don't what he's up to keep in rice. lint pick and mix. This is a Josh Widdicum routine if ever at all. A lint door pick and mix

in a science bris. Yeah. No, I'm excited. Who's coming in the Sultan of Brunite? Wait there, let me get a pen and paper here. So how many different types of lint is there kicking around? Yeah. I'd probably say there are maybe seven or eight colors. Surely the red ones are lowest in sock. Do you think? I like the white. Yeah. Yeah.

You can tell a place is going up in Valley when the dark chocolate starts going. You know the southeast is getting gendafied because the fucking shit stuff is starting to sell. It's quite fun thinking what your routine would be Josh because I think you could do I don't know if it is I think is a character assassination That's what it is wrong Because you could go always it like the king of Abu Dhab and then do a dib dab and I bring back a bit of a Nosto yeah, yeah, what I do is a piece of piss that's what we can get down to is fucking a barrel fish in a barrel choosing old old thing, take it apart, putting a funny reference, tore

with your eyes dead. Okay, I actually did go the wrong way. Finn, how are you? You're all right. Yeah, well, I'm fine actually compared to Josh, yeah. Remarkably long fuse, it turns out. That's why most guests leave happy on this show. How old is your daughter? Well, listen, I've been saying 18 months for a few months now.

Yeah, me too, yeah. I really resent the month's thing. In my head it should go one, one in a bit, 18 months, nearly two, two. Yes. You know when people you say how old is here, they're like, you know what I mean? It's normally because they they they they they say they say they say they say they say they say they say they say they say they say they say they say they say they say they say they say they say they say they say they say they say they say they say they say they say they say they say they say they say, they're like 22 months and you go I don't actually care like why you do what I mean? It's normally because they say two and a half and they're not at the developmental point they want them to be they don't want you to think their kids like. Yeah, so I've just been

fudging for a while. I think what was she? She'd be 20 months but because she was premature she but because she was premature she th but because because because because because because she the the the the the the th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th they's th the the the they's the the's they're they's they's 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's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they they they they they they they they they they the they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they a fudge. It's like the aggregate away goals this is. Yeah it is. So how premature was she? Seven weeks. Fucking, Nora. Spicy entry. Yeah, that is a spice. That's the medical term. Three chilies. Does the doctor turn to you and go, I'm afraid this is going to be a spicy entry

tree. This is not a lemon a lemon a lemon a lemon a lemon lemon lemon lemon lemon a lemon lemon lemon a lemon lemon lemon lemon lemon lemon a lemon lemon lemon lemon lemon a lemon lemon lemon lemon a lemon lemon lemon the the lemon the lemon the lemon the lemon the the the the the the the the thininin. This is not a thi. This is not a to be. This is the subio. You're looking at Diablo C-3 children. They have three chilies on the whiteboard, yeah. So she has two ages until they're two, supposedly where all the development like is caught up. So for the first seven weeks you're like, well that was a lot of fucking parenting to get to square one. Yeah, kicking yourself out of a hole. Yeah, we were in a neonatal unit for, yeah, nearly two months. Blah, hell. So let's go from contractions.

Yeah. Didn't get to them. Didn't get to them. Didn't get to contractions. So what happened? So my wife had a thing called preaclampsia I've heard of it, but I don't think we've had a guest talk about it. We've covered brevils extensively. Brevels?

Yeah. Is that past 35 weeks? I don't think we made it to brevels. Yeah, that's when they're overdue. Right, OK, you've got really know much about it because obviously it's women's medicine and they sort of seem to concentrate on prostate cancer and veterinary science more than they do women's medicine, but it's something to do with a percenter and it basically, the only cure is delivering the baby. Right.

Fuck. Lucky she was pregnant, then. Well, yeah, it would have been a real job to go back nine months, or seven months as a way. I mean, I would have done it. But anyway, yeah, so she just kind of started swelling up. I mean, they missed it. The problem was that normally what happens is if you get pre-clamps and they like, they catch it because your blood pressure goes up and then you're on bedrest, basically while the baby carries on growing and they deliver close to went term but because they missed it they still don't really know why but anyway she was like she was

really swollen like swollen face and ankles and hands. How long for like for months? Well no she always had quite bad carpal tunnel with the hands yeah because it was first pregnancy I was like well women get big don't they so I you know you don't want to you you can't bring it up you really go to go bloody. You the they they they they they they they they they they really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really. they. they. they. They they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they still still don't really really don't really they they they they they they they they they they they they they still still don't really they still still still still still still still still still still still still still still still still still they they they they they still still still still still 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 don't really really really really really really really really don't go. they're really don't they're really don't to go. they're really. they're really. they're still. they're really really. they're still. they're still. they're still. they're still. they, don't they? So I, you know, you don't want to, you don't want to. You can't bring it up. You're going, you're glowing. You're glowing. You're glowing. You're three times the sides, but you're glowing. More of a kind of Chernobyl glow than a than a honesty one. But it's fine isn't it. You're the height. You're thininin. You're thin. You're thin. You're thin. You're the, you. You're th. You're the, you're th. th. thin. the thin. to keep. the to keep. to keep. to go. to go. they. to go. to go. You're going. You're going. You're going. You're going. You're going. You're going.

It's going, to go. It's going, to go. It's going. It's going. It's going. It's, you're the. It's good. It's good've got to support them? Yeah. It turns out that was quite wrong with her. And we went for a, in hindsight, quite a bad idea. We went for a sort of little pre-baby holiday in Cornwall. And then she had a funny turn. I mean, she's also, she's tight one diabetic. Went to Liszt guard instead of St Ives. Lindeor's back. He's back in the room. This is his wheelhouse. Funny place

names. Here I am. Don't you? I just want to let you know Finn was talking about diabetes as well though Josh. It's quite serious actually that point. I've been serious for them. Lindor pops up. He's just floating in the space like Thomas Muller. Yeah, the plumb of punch liner. It'll be absent for ages and then bang. No, she's the the the they. She's they. She's. She's. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. It's thi. It's thi. It's thi. It's just just just just just just just just just just just just just. It's just. It's just. It's just. It's just. It's just th. th. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. F. I. F. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's.

No, she's got the type of diabetes, so like, I was just sort of called an ambulance. And then they sort of settled her, they said she's fine, and then later that night, she just like started vomiting and her face was like, it was like a sort of almost like an allergic shellfish kind of face, and then they were like, to to to to to to to to to to to to to they... they. they, they, they, they were like, they were like, they were like, thi. they were like, they were like, they was like, they was like, they was just, I was just, I was just thi, I was just, I was just, I was just, I was just, I was just sort of, I was just sort thi, I was just sort, I was just sort, I was just, I was just, I was just, I I was just, I I I I was just, I I I I I I I was just, I I was just, I..... I was just, I was just, like, th th th th th th th th th th th th th thi. that that that that that that that thrown thrown, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, thrown, like, like, I was just just, I was just just, like, I was just to Truro Hospital and they were like, yes, probably pre-oclantia.

And then they kind of stabilized and then they were like, we'll let you go. Basically they were like, do you live in Cornwall? We're like, no. And they were like, well. It's not the time to get into that debate about out of town. Yeah, you're just down here looking at a few properties actually to bite alert. So then they basically decided on the condition and we went straight back to Kings where we were. Fuck, so did you have to then just drive back that night? I drive back the next day, eight hours without stopping,

McGinn's here. Oh my God. That wasn't great. And then they were like, I was thinking, okay, so we'll be in the hospital for like a month and then the liver. And then they came in and said, yeah, we're gonna have a go tomorrow actually. And I was like, have a go is quite a loose. I was hoping we'd say we'd get her out, but have a go.

All right. Well, oh, oh, we' m we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're m. We're m. We're m. We're m. We're mu. We're mu. We're mucking. We're mucking. We're mucking. We're mucking. We're mucking. We're mucking. We're mucking. We're mucking. We're mucking. We're mucking. We're mucking. We're mucking. We're mu. We're mu. We're mu. We're m. We're m. We're m. We're m. We're m. We're m. We're m. We're m. We're m. We're m. We're m. We're m. We're m. We're m. We're m. We're m. We're m. We're m. We're m. We're m. We're m.

So yeah then they're like we're going to go tomorrow because she's actually she's quite unwell and then that's when I opened my first parenting book was the night before. Yeah I was sort of cram before an exam. I thought you next day. And were you worried about, did it feel like it was kind of scary? Yeah, but the whole thing was sort of to save Amanda's life as much as it was like a birth experience? Yeah. I haven't really worked out of a way to talk about it. You know when other parents are sort of sharing their birth war stories. Yeah. I don't really know how to talk about it in a way that doesn't kill the room, much like my act about five years ago.

I haven't quite ironed out the tone. Yeah. Obviously because the first year was quite a lot that happened and of everyone we know, we've had the toughest entry as it were so we're the ones that they use as an example when they want perspective. Yeah. It could be worse, could be though. So how did you get on with hypno birthing? Can you read the baby out? It is difficult. I mean, obviously men, you sort of learn to not really have an opinion on how women give

birth, don't you? It's not really a place. But there's been a couple of times when friends or people people people people people people people people people people people people people people people people people people people people people. have gone on about how they were annoyed how medical their birth was and it wasn't the experience they wanted and I'm just a bit like, I'm just gonna have to leave. I don't really know how to, I just sort of get a bit angry because I don't really know how to. Oh, I'm so sorry that you didn't feel like it was spiritual enough for you. I was sat there after an eight hour drive like your wife's gonna die if you're gonna die. Yeah exactly. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I I I I I I I's gonna 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 have I just to have I just to have I just to have I just to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have I I I I I I I I I I to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to to the the their their their their their their to their to to to to to to to leave to leave I just to to leave I just to to leave I just to leave I just to leave I just to leave. I'm sorry they forgot to get your crystals out. It was very sterile the hospital wasn't it? I just, I don't, yeah. They didn't even like a candle, you know. The real stress was that I was trying to connect to the Bluetooth speaker for about 10 minutes,

and then because it was an emergency C-section, I think you've only got 10 minutes to try and connect before they go, you know what, mate, let's get off on the music, let's get on with it. Get a scrubs on, mate. I think I ended up playing Spotify out of my phone by Amanda's face. Great app choice, by the way, obviously. Great app choice, the perfect app choice I'd say, oh, oh Christ, just an A-Cast, shouldn't I shouldn't I shouldn't I shouldn't I I shouldn't I shouldn't I shouldn't I shouldn't I shouldn't I shouldn't I've I've I've I've I've I've I've oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, I've.

I think, I think, I think, I think, I think, I think, I think, I think, I think, I think, I think, I think, I think, I think, I've just just, I've just, I've just. the village. I'm podying, weren't podding, obviously music. Who listens to a podcast during burst? That's gonna be, that's gonna be third or fourth kid, you reckon you're getting the podcast. Yeah, you're just sort of getting for your to-do list. You're on a zoom call, pumping them out. I found with the, because we had an emergency cesarean, but not in as intense, as intense, as intense, as intense, as intense, as intense, as intense still pretty intense, but I was shocked by how medical the whole

things, do you know what I mean? It felt like I was in a TV drama. Well I wasn't expecting a shaman, Josh. I wasn't expecting a sort of witch doctor to come in. Just a priest and a warm towar. Well maybe should have stayed in Cornwall. Yeah, you know what they were great in that hospital, but they were a bit like, where's that fucking insulin? I knew I put it some... I was like we should really go back to Kings. They're great here, but it is, you know, it's a different system,

in it. It's different my life down, isn't it? Truro? Because you say you're in for two months, would you have been living in Truro for two months? Different places have set up differently for prematurity, so we might have gone to Bristol or something. I don't really know. But Kings is like one of the best in the, well, maybe world. I don't know, so. Yeah, stuff. It was only operating like 50%. Our two daughters were underweight when they were born. So there were 5 pound 10 and 6 pound 5, but would have been probably. I don't want to exempt you, but yeah. I will. Mine was 3 pound 6.

Minus? Mine. Mine. Yeah, yeah. Big job. That two months for a big job. So, three pound six? Yeah, about the size of my hand. Oh my god.

Yeah. Yeah. That one the troubles forms. It's the one Trump card I've got though, so we'll play it. Because I think there's a lot of worry with premature order. We'll get thoult tho tho tho tho they they they they they they they they they they they they be they be they be they be they a lot of worry about like premature births and stuff and as they get older will they be as big or as strong or whatever the different complications but like there's so many people like Tyson Fury was a pound when he was born and he's like six or nine every weight champion of the world.

So it's no rhyme or reason that if a child's premature these things will happen or won't happen. I've already booked my daughter to fight Deontay Wilder, actually. I'll put the MGM Grand. It's going to be a blood ball. 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.

And so did you know that you were looking down the barrel of two months in the hospital at this point? No it was very much just like let's get to the next thing let's make sure Amanda's all right. You just want to make sure Amanda's alive and the baby's out and alive, you know, that's the weird thing is that like at the time it really is just like let's make sure Amanda's all right. Yeah. And then as the kind of connections grown stronger with my daughter, the memory

almost becomes more traumatic in like looking back than it was at the th........... 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, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, the the the the the the th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, they. And, they. And, the they. And, they. And, like, like, like, like, like, like looking back than it was at the time. Do you know what I mean? Yeah, so looking back it's more painful because do you feel guilty that you didn't, not they didn't care about the baby, you were just so like, oh, is Amanda okay? Because at this point the baby's not existed, it's just a thing in the belly. Exactly. It's weird that at the time side of it, but then the more the baby becomes like the main thing in your life, the more you look back on it as a sort of traumatic memory even though it wasn't the time. Yeah, but also you can't think like that. Everything's a sliding doors moment. So and she's happy and absolutely insane now, the baby so the very happy outcome. But the seven weeks, seven weeks in neonatement. So how sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the the the the baby, the baby, the baby, the baby, the baby, the baby, the baby, the the baby, the the the th, th. We're try, try, try, tha, tha, tho, the the the the thorough, the the the the the the th seven weeks in neonation. So how, sorry to stop with Finn, we'll get on to the neonatal seven weeker. It's not doing a summary

malia, you know what I mean? There's seven weeks, but how, so when Amanda gets taken off to have the baby taken out and to like readjust her blood pressure and all that that kind of stuff, what are you thinking? What are you thinking? What news are you are you the news is the news is the news? the news? the news is the news? the news? the news is th. the news? th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. to to to to to to to to to thi. to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to thi.

Like, it's normal like Cesarian, so I'm with her. And she's conscious, she's awake and just been an Enesia Sars for the waiting. Yeah, but fuck me. They had several goes at the old spinal tap. Well, that was painful to watch. Oh, yeah, the epidural. They were letting a trainee do it. Get the old fucking big boy on whoever it is. He's a big dog here. The anesthetist was like, come on, now you have another go.

And I was like, come on, lad. Let's just get it in clean, would you? I know so you've got to learn at some point, but not on my wife. What was weird was that they took the baby out, and delivered the baby, and then I went over and she's the, she got put on a resuscitation table, they make sure she's fine. I then go over and like take some photos to go and show Amanda. Then the baby stops breathing,

so I get like ushered away and they like resuscitated baby. Oh my God, fucking elephant. Yeah, yeah, but then I think it was, Anita's was so brilliant at talking with, oh, there's a lot of people people people people people people people people people people people people alarm going off, loads of people came in, but she was fine. How long do they work on her when she... Oh I don't know, maybe five's ten minutes? Bloody hell, God. But we were being talked through it all the time, like, there's a lot of people, they know what they're doing and it's fine. So, I don't know, fire department or anything. They just, yeah, pros. And the mad thing was after it was all fine,

so she then, she's in an incubator and she's like, we sort of say hello to her through the class and then she gets whisked off to the unit. I'm obviously in bits of how to thank you. And he's like, what? And I'm like, it's just a job. It's just a job. And I'm in absolute pieces. And then they stitch up Amanda and I just go and absolutely just break down. But then we can't go and see the kid for a, it was a few hours I think.

So Amanda lost. This is the funny thing is because, obviously, so when when we we we we we we we were when we were when we were when we were when we were when we were when we were when we were when we were when we were when we were when when we were when we were, this is the funny thing is because obviously so when we're in the unit a lot of people had Cesarians, a lot of women had Cesarians and they were cropped, they completely feel rubbish but because Amanda had felt so ill beforehand she basically vomited all the excess liquid because all the swelling in her like face had been liquid she vomited it all up in the space of about half a day. I think she lost like 15 kilos in like the first three days so she looked amazing like she felt amazing like she felt amazing as well and she was kind of swanning around the unit like

obviously she's in a wheelchair for a bit but all the other mums were like completely broken she was like I feel so alive so bad. He felt so like near death for ages for last a few weeks and she's thinking, oh this is just pregnancy, this is what it feels like, but because she's never had a good, yeah. Yeah, you're just like swelling up and you google it and they go, well, that happens in the third trimester. So you're waiting, the babies, the baby's wist off for a couple of hours and you're just, I imagine, I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I've just, I've just, I've just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, th. th. th. th. th. 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... This is just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just, th. th. th. th. th. th. thi thi thi thi thi this is just thi this is just this is just this is just thi this is just thi thi thi this a medical birth and I just kind of trust doctors. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I'm not one of those people tries to micromanage. Yeah, you know, I just like believe what they say. So what's going on with it? Yeah, so what's going on? So what's going on? That all, so it's all pluncted that they were taken too and all plucked to plucked to plucked to plucked to plucked. to pluced to pluced to pluced to to to to be all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all all p. to be all. to be all. to to to to to be all. to to to to to to to to to have to have to have to have to have to have to have all all. to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to be to to be to to to to to their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their the. their their their the. their tru. trust. trust. trust. trust. their. trust. trust. to to to to to to get on with it and just sort of trusted that they were taking care of it and then the main thing was that for me

then was that Amanda was fine. Yeah yeah it must be nice for you a bit of a relief that she's fine now and got all this out of her and she's looking good and the the the try and happy it must be a relief for the sort of to the thrown to to to to to to thuuuuuu thu thu thu the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the to to to to to to to to to to to me to to to to to me to to to to to to their the the the the the the the threat really? Well yeah it was that's why they went so quickly and then you just sort of when a baby's bored it's I don't know what it's like for the sort of quote normal birth but I mean you got to know it slowly anyway. Yeah of course yeah so we just did that I guess in a different way and so when did they say I presume they didn't say you day, I think it was up later that night. Was this drink COVID? I tell you what it was exactly, mate, because I remember watching your video with you in your bucket hat, during the euros. Oh, well, they'd let the hand break off.

So they'd let the hand break off, so there was loads of cases, and yet obviously, near nasal unit, they're like, you can't get it, because it, but, don't have lungs. So you're allowed to laugh at that because your kids been in a neonette yeah I can laugh at it. Oh I didn't laugh. Yeah it was like tests every day and all that stuff. So you can't just what's swan in and out is quite. But also it was like I could work again for the first time in two years but but I couldn't the first try to. to to to to to to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. the to be. their. to be. their. their. to be. I to be to be to be to be their. their. I'm. I couldn't. I couldn't. I couldn't. I couldn't. I couldn't. I couldn't. I couldn't. I couldn't. I couldn't. I could their. I could their. I could their.

I'm. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. parents who got it and then couldn't go in for 10 days, which is like massive. So you're testing before you go in all the time and stuff? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Anyway, I went up that night and said hello and like held her hand and stuff. And kind of got talked through by one of the doctors was like, right, you need to get nappies and wipes and they get you really involved in parenting and stuff and talked you through everything and they were like they're normally in till about when they would have come

out normally so we knew it was going to be like six seven weeks. So she was happy and healthy the baby but just obviously young she couldn't go home with you yet. So it's like there are three wards. There's intensive care which is like scary or you know, those server rooms you see in action films, racks and machines and huge incubators. But nowadays 33 weeks isn't that premature? Like there were kids in there like 25 weeks. Wow, Peter. It's mental what they can do now. So they were actually quite good at being like, oh, you're not going to be in here very long. And I think quite quickly we've got to move down to high dependency, which is like quite a lot of equipment but less. And then I think maybe within two days we were in special care, which to be honest, it's like a fucking zoo.

It's just, it's like these babies and they're in fucking tubs on like wheelie trolley. And there's like 12 of them and that's where anyone comes in when they need like anything after a birth yeah so you've got kids like ours who was quite premature but healthy but just needed to put on weight yeah and then you've got there was just one day where obviously we're in this one room for like six weeks oh what so the actual special care room so that's 12 beds and baby well they're not beds they're fucking washing up tubs you know so so so so so so so so so so so so so so the the the the the the the the the the they they they 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'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 they're they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they tttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt 12 beds and baby. Well, they're not beds, they're fucking washing up tubs, honestly. So you're not, so you don't get a bed, you just get a chair next to it, essentially?

Yeah, yeah, so you're like commuting, it's like a night to five. There was this one day where there was that it needed to be weaned off. Right. And this kid was massive. It was like too fat to be in a premature baby unit. I don't want to body shame, but... And it was next to our daughter and it just fucking screamed at the top of its lungs. And the good thing about premature babies is they've got crap lungs, so they don't make that much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much. the the the th me meaui, thi, thiuiu. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. toe. toe. toe. toe. toea. toea. toe toe toe toe toe toe toea. toea. toea. toea. would not stop going. I had to leave. The worst thing about the unit was the other babies and the other parents. That's the worst thing about it. That's the worst thing about being a parent. Yeah, yeah. So they're being there for like a couple of days for something and then go again yeah. Yeah. And so what was your day

involving? Oh Christ I mean it was just get up getting the car. So you'd leave the baby overnight and then just go there all day? Yes sometimes I go there a night but then to be honest it's like you've got to be kind to yourself this brutal like long days and there's no point you yeah the baby needs to sleep and just fatten up there's only so much yeah yeah and then you're basically just trying to establish feeding because there's a minimum weight to get out so how are they fed is it all bottle fed or was it breastfed when they're that little or we did both Amanda really wanted to breastfeed and she'd fucking stuck at it, it was brutal. It took ages to establish, but she really wanted it. She did it, which was great. But they do bottle as well because obviously when you're not there overnight,

got fatten them up. Got fatten them up. And we're still actually on a fattening up diet now. Because she's tracking, but she's still like small for her age. And they gave us this leafletletting the th th the th th th the th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, their, th, their, tho, tho, their, they're, they're, that, that, they're, they're, they're, they to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to th, th, they, they, they they they they to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to be, to be, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, because too, because to to fatten a kid up. And Christ, I'm not eating mozzarella again. It turns out that's the thing you eat if you want to fat that, like mozzarella, cream fresh, we're lacing that and everything. Really? Yeah, yeah, yeah, double cream. Yeah, double cream. Yeah, I tell you what though, the problem you're going to have, once your kids reach the right they're going to have a taste for it. their their th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, the, the, thrown, thrown, thrown, thrown, thrown, throwne, thrown, thrown, thrown, throwne, thrown, thrown, thrown, thr-a, thre-a, thre-a, thr-a, thr-a, thr-a, if thr-a, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, to th. th, th, th, th, th, th, th.. th. th. thin, thin, thin, thrown, thrown, thin, throwne, throwne, throwne, throwne, that, that, that, they's, they's, that, they's, that, they's, that, thrownea, throwne, the facts are my double-creating? Yeah, fully aware we're sleep walking into an obesity crisis, fully aware of that. We're out for breakfast.

Yeah. But when you've seen them be so small, you sort of don't really care, I guess. I don't know. What's it? What's the tour? And so you're on tour. Yeah. Yeah, it's all material. You know what they're saying? It's all material. What's the tour called? It might as we do the tool. It's called Daddy Self Care. My last tour was kind of just after the we got home and that's on YouTube. That's called So My Wife. I've got stuff about the birth. That's on YouTube. But yeah, the new tool is more about just because she's a toddl fucking hell. New challenge really isn't it?

She's at the stage where she needs to go into a soft play but she is not able yet to do the soft play properly. Yeah. So I'm getting in there and yesterday, tooting leisure center, I felt like... Tuting leisure so it sounds like a start of a joke. yesterday, Tooting Leisure Center, I felt like... Tooting Leisure Center. It sounds like a start of a joke. Was it Toot and Leisure Center?

Imagine sort of Richard Osmond doing those Vietnam War Tunnels tour. I'm 6-3 and I'm getting in there and like, do less than that. That's brutal limit following him. Christ. And then there was this four-year-old that was like, just obsessed with her. I just ended up just letting her sort of drag her around and she had her arms under my daughter's armpits and was like hauling her like she was a sort of battlefield casualty around the soft play, but I just sort of had a coffee and let them let it get on with it. And she's a nursery? Yes, three days a week. Are you good with the other parents? Yeah, I mean, we've made friends of parents on our roads and then really nice. Amanda's very sociable. I'm always like, let's just leave it five minutes. There could be pricks. Let's just,

don't agree to it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. What does Possible sound like for your business? It's having to spend to power your scale with no preset spending. Platinum. That's the powerful backing of American. of of of of of of of of of of to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to th. A th. A with no preset spending limit. Redefine possible with Business Platinum. That's the powerful backing of American Express. Terms and Conditions apply. Visit Amex.C.A. slash business platinum. How you have managed the tour, though, being away and looking after the baby and stuff.

Is it hard work or is it all right? Yeah, I mean, it's what it is. try to plan the tour around like when she's in nursery. The other day I did Cardiff and then had to get up at five, drive to Dawking where Amanda's parents live, like at 5 a.m. to do a full day's child care, then did dorking that night. Because the building work started and we couldn't stay in the flat we're in now. Yeah, I mean, you know, it just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's I mean, I just, I don't know, I don't know how to say it. I was to say, you just get on with it, don't you?

How quickly did you stop feeling blessed after the hell of the birth and stuff? How quickly did the perspective that gave you disappear? I think it was just one parent in particular that really started to fuck me off in the unit, I think when she joined, that was when I was like, this is a nightmare. So why was she annoyed? She just sort of treated the whole unit like it was her private ward and stuff and there were these breastfeeding chairs that were like gold, because you were just sitting on shit like school chairs.

And obviously you're doing like skin to skin, it's just really painful because. Yeah, but it was like, it was, it was, it was, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it was just, it was just, it was just, it was just, it was just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, like, like, like, like, it's just, 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, the the they. It's, they. they. they. the they. the. the. the. the. the. the the the the the the the the the the, Joey and Chandler and friends, those big like. Yeah, like an easy boy. Yeah, yeah, they're like those. She just always hogged those. She knocked her like a box off her incubator and it nearly hit my daughter who's about four pounds at this, you know, just shit like that. I'd hate all the big kids. Because all you want is your kid to be heavier and stronger and full so they can leave and then this big fucking beast comes in. You know what's wrong with that one? Walks down the aisle with a packet of cream fresh and a mozzarella in each hand. Yeah she needs to get used to her she's gonna take on Deontay so it's it's all right.

So you're all over the place. And we're adding an extra one in Liverpool as well, but that's not on cell yet. How's your sleep? Fine incubator babies. I think they, I think there's, I don't know if it's an old wife's tale, but they sleep, don't they? How do she just sort of goes up to other kids and just strokes their face and then like will sort of... That is sociable. I know but it's quite like I'm often the only dad

and then I don't really know what the boundaries are. Because I think you like being a dad thing but I think you hate most people anyway don't you that's sort of your thing. Well and then now you're being forced into socialising that that social. Well, and then now you're being forced into socializing with your daughter. Yes, no, that is that is an element of it. But she causes quite a lot of incidents. Right. Oh, I guess. Because she'll go and like play with someone's toy while they're playing with it. And then just sort of poss her off and leave this poor child in absolute, you know.

So she's a thi. So she's a thing. I don't. I don't. I don't. I don't. I don't. I don't. I don't. I don't. I don't. I don't. I don't. I don't. I don't. I don't. I don't. I don't. I don't. I don't.

A lot of premature babies are thiaps, Rob. That's an old wife's tale. Yeah, it's probably from their time in the incubator, actually. So, do you think about that? Next time you've known about how the very stressful birth. Five pounds, five pounds. one thank you yes no but she's always been a fairly good sleep apart from when she's ill which obviously she's not got it yeah it's awful when kids are ill I've had foot and mouth have you heard that yeah I've had sores on my tongue I had sores on my tongue and in my mouth yeah I know I still got scarring on the

back of my throat what was you doing to that cow's foot? Because like I was gigging because I was getting the hour together so I was doing the circuit quite hard and then I would get up early because the kid like I just didn't get time to recover so those sores were just like painful for like two or thoo's the thin.... th so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so th so so so th so th so th so so so.

Yeah, yeah, exactly. Yeah, it's mad, isn't it? And it comes back, I find the mouth sores. I have them recurring now occasionally when I'm really run down. That's it.

I've got foot and mouth. Is that why you're on last leg? Yeah, chronic foot and mouth. Chronic, like long foot and mouth. Long foot mouth. Is that why you're on last leg? Is that the thing? Yeah, yeah. I've got long foot and mouth. Yeah, Alex is talking about the 50 surgeries he has as a child. And Josh is like, you know, I've got a couple of sores.

to the back of my. You're a Lindor guy, as we've heard from the routine. I can't wait to get to Sydney and Sainsbreeze, mate. You're never gonna go to Sydney and saynames, are you? If I was passing, I might go in. Because I was seen the mint ones, and I've thought I've always wanted to t suburbs. I've still got an edge. I've still got an edge. Where do you live, Josh? He's like Victoria Park. Some of them like over-priced cross-on places. Over-price, cross-on-places. What's that weird little kind of, there isn't a sort of weird, almost a weird, the weird little, yeah. It's a bit weird, some weird, it's a weird. It's a bit strange, isn't it, in the middle of London? I tell you what you don't say, you don't call it a village to black cab drivers.

They do not like that. They do not like that. No, I bet. Do you know what it's like though? Where the era where Josh is? You remember play Grand Futo and you drive forthrough it, it's sort of like normal London, like big cosmopolitan, different cultures, different things, and you get through his bed, it's just those of middle class white people with glasses with their chinos rolled up, bright coloured socks. So that's a bit on GTA that you start going on the pavement, Robert.

Yeah, yeah, you just start mowing people down. Yeah, we feel the gales is bringing the area down. Gales is bringing the area down. That's how well... Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow, these right-on guys are pricing out all the people that grew up in the area so they can

sort of run a bar. Let's not go into that. So, Ben, um, I'm doing we've done that, so Finn versus the internet. You wanted an edge, Josh. I wanted an edge. Sure, it's your edge. Metropolitan Elite, pricing out all the locals. My edge is that I'm basically the human embodiment of the cereal cafe. Is that what you're saying? Yes, you've done a reverse Cornwall. Normally people from London earn their money and go to Cornwall and buy it all up.

He did it the other way. You've got to be doing cereal cafe stuff, Josh. That's. That's. That's. That's.. th. the the the th.. the the the the the the the the the th. th. the the th. th. th. the the th. the th. the th. th. the the the 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 the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th.

You've got to be doing cereal cafe stuff, Josh. That's ten years ago. You go through all the cereals or the American ones. That's 20 minutes. Yeah, he sits on routine so he's not outdated. It's just nostalgia. Yeah. I've got my 2036 to already written. I tried it out from Britain. He's got loads of stuff on a street cat called Bob. You've seen the guy and a cat on his neck. I was going to talk about him versus the internet on YouTube, but fine, let's just take down my everything I've done with my... No, let's talk about it. Let's talk about, let's plug it.

I do love it, Finn. What I like, why, it's so for the listener. It's been interviewing people I've never seen before in my life. They're internet people. Yeah, they're like, they've got big followings, but no one really knows who they are. It's this weird like. It's your YouTube channel, Finn versus the internet. Yeah, it's really funny. It's a bit, if anyone's seen between two firms, it's a similar, or like, almost, almost, almost, almost, almost, almost, 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, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, a.. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they're. they're. they're. they. they're. they're. they're. they're. the Well the first series they were there on the false pretenses and there was several we're not

allowed to release for legal reasons but then they... You said who they are? No? But then they're always surprised by kind of how far we push it. But what we found this, they're always surprised by kind of how far we to the thooo the their they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they the the the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. thoes thi the. the. thoes 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 their their their their to to their to their. to their to the. the. the. the. the. the. the. theann't toeanneneneneneneneneneed. thean. thoooooease. thooooooease. thease. thooooooooooease. thease. the get what it'll be like. But then they're always surprised by kind of how far we push it. I'm always amazed when people agree to come on it. I don't really know what's in it for them, but yeah, it's a lot of fun. It's really fun. It's doing really well. And was this idea of doing a YouTube channel't the much that. It was that like I was doing bits of TV. I mean, compared to you guys, I haven't done that much tele,

but I guess compared to the average circuit comic, I've done loads. And it wasn't really selling tickets. Now, to all selling really well. But I talked to them afterwards, it's all YouTube. Yeah. more like I've got to do something. It was just like I don't... Doing this? Well yeah, and do you find this is the thing that you're most known for even though you're both to have like recurring TV jobs? I'd say Romesh is the thing that we're both most known for even though I don't worry with him. Yeah. No, do you know what is it? It depends on the

person but I think I get stopped all that shit, but my wife makes you watch it, so he only watched that one that you slag off them all in. A lot of cab drivers are like, celebs go dating Zep and why it forces them to watch it. It is interesting though, isn't it, that like, it has moved so much away from the power of television, like, the exposure in that sense. Yeah it's mental and it's kind of disorientating because I think I started probably maybe just after you guys certainly like just after you guys and back then it was like panel show central. Yeah Kevin Bridges does five minutes from people see one pretty immediately is like moving to the theaters. Yeah I mean that

world's completely gone isn't it I don't thinks anything that really the the things. I I I I I the the the the the the the the th. I I th. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. I'm thi. I'm thi. I'm thi. thi. thi. I'm thi. I'm thi. thi. I'm that's that's th. I'm that's is th. I was like. I'm th. I'm the. I'm thi. I'm thi. I'm thi. I'm thi. I was. I was thi. I was thi.

I'm certainly. you unless you, it's your own thing really. I mean the closest I've had is when I did the NFL thing. Oh that was funny. Even though I'd done Apollo and the Volucus view, that was the thing that kind of shot my follings up and stuff. But just for people that didn't see it, their kind front of the Thames I think it was, wasn't it? It's one of the biggest breakfast shows in America, it turns out. I found this out afterwards. What was it on, like NBC or something? It's on the NFL network. Yeah. And then I think they only found like they were coming to London like the the NFL network. And they were like, well, who do we know? And they're, they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the NFL. the NFL. the NFL. the NFL. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. the the the the the the the the the t ne. N. N. N. N. N. ne. N. t t t t t t the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the ne week before and they were like, well, who do we know? And they just called me. I thought it would be a big payday. So like, well, the NFL, it's massive. And then my agent stayed on the core then informed me that they only pay people in exposure. So I thought, well, fuck that. Yeah. I'll do it, but I'll make sure I get paid. But they're the mortgage company. Guys. their their their their their their their their. It's got got got got got got got got got got. their. their. their. It's got. It's got. It's got. It's got. It's got. It's got. It's got. It's got. It's got. It's got. It's got. It's got a their. It's got a their their their their their their their their their. It's got. It's got. It's got. It's got. It's got. It's got. It's got. It's got. It's got. It's got. It's got. It's got. It's got.

It's got a the the the the the the the the the the the the the their. It's got. It's got a the the their. It's got. It went on and they, I didn't really plan it to work out how it did, but they were just so American and skittish.

They were like, oh, so NFL's great over here, right? And I was like, no, so people like it, people that like it are really weird and they can't hold down a job because they're up to all me. Yeah but it was funny. That's the thing you almost have to play TV for the internet now don't you? Yeah, play it for the clip. Exactly. What I find like I've got incredible like respect with in that and it's the same with Finn versus the internet. I have no guts to do anything in the room where I've you're nervous when you're taking the th that situation? Not really, no, I don't really care. Is that bad?

No, I think it's great. I think it's fucking brilliant. I wish I had that. I don't really think it mattered. I mean, if I piss off an American ex-NFL player, I don't, as long as the o'clock, as the time there's not going to be any thaghagen thaghagen thin thin thin thin. You brought him up as well on the broadcast. Twice, twice the second time really broken. The second time really broken. No, Finn versus Intent is a bit different because it is a bit of like, like, I got the idea because I've done a pilot with Sasha Baron Cohen's company so I kind of saw how they make like bore a lot and stuff. So I was like, oh, I'm just going to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to sort to. I to. I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm the the the the the the 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. thi. thi. thooomoomoomorrow. th. th. try. try. try. try. I'm just. I'm just. I'm just. try. I'm just. I'm just. I'm just going to sort of do that, but with internet people. And so I try and you start a bit slow and a bit like,

unless they're really up for it, well, in which case you just start quite hardcore, but no, you try and get them on the side a bit, what you'll show? And then most of the room, and you know how to do stand up, you've got your show, you've got to deliver a show, that's the way to build it. You have to do something that gets them in the room for the first time. So when you go to like dorking or auditors, so when you go to like Pussy in your hands. Silly pie in your hands, if you remember that computer. There we go. You can't stop. The non-stop gobbstopper. The tour before I started like

putting myself out there, I was like going through the theaters and in the big room that be like, some tick-talk. And they would have sold like 500 the the the the their the the the the their the their in the big room that be like some tick-talk twat and they would have sold like 500 tickets but the show is pretty. Yeah. But at least I know how to put on a show so the problem is getting them in the room but once getting them in the room I know they'll come back. Yeah how to do it so. No it's great. This tool is great. I've this thau is great. Tools is great. T was thol is great. T was thals is great. T was thals is great. thals is great. thals is great. thals. tho is great. thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thousa. thoes thoes thi was great. thousand was great. thoes thoes tho. tho. thoes thousa. thoes thoes tho.

I've too was great. I've too was great. I've too was great. I've tho is great more, well they're not settled at home, it's complete, bin fire, but you know, it's actually quite nice to be away. It is, I'm extending it as long as possible. Let's do Australia. Do you think you'll go again though for a second or do you think you've got a bit scarred from your experiences? Amazingly my wife pretty much straight away was like she's always

wanted multiple kids and my friend of my mom's had pretty much what we went through and it put her off she only had one kid. Yeah. But Amanda was no pretty much straight way, it was like it is what it is you know. So if you have it before is it likely you'll get it again and can you spot it and treat it? There is a 20% increased risk of it happening again? Yeah, but they wouldn't miss it again. Yes, of course. If we got pregnant again, so... If they hadn't missed it, how would that scenario have played out if that makes sense? You'd have still been premature, presumably, but...

No, I think if they hadn't missed it, they would have put Amanda on bedrest and like basically controlled her blood pressure. Right, right. Well maybe actually I don't know. It's always a trade-off between how well the baby's doing versus how other mom's doing. And it's bed rest in the hospital or his bedress? Yes, I think so. It's like you're in basically monitored. Until the baby comes out and that's a pendant on. Well they'd probably still do a Cesarine but they do it I guess they'd probably do it near a term. I I I I I I don't I don't I don't I don't I don't I don't I don't I don't I don't I don't I don't I don't I don't I don't I don't I don't I don't I'd I'd I'd they'd they'd they'd they'd they'd they. I'd they'd they'd they'd their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their. I'd their. I'd their. I'd their their to to to to to to to to to to try. to try. to try. to to to to to their their their their their their the, fair enough. I'm blagging. I'm blagging it. You're in for two months where your wife's in on bedrest. You're looking after the kids and having to go into the hospital every day

and you're on tou. And you're also having to go a jackmate in a online video all in one day. Busy, busy day. Busy busy day. Now, it's a final question now, Finn. What is one thing that winds you up about Amanda and the way she parents, that if she listened back to this, you go, yeah, that's fair enough. And then what's the one thing she does that you think she is amazing? I'm so happy that we had a child together. I like how you've changed this question, because I. And then they'd always say, oh, well, she's great. And then you go, well, that goes without saying, it fucking doesn't.

Yeah. You know, moms, they always love being taken for granted. So Amanda's very, she's such a people person. She's so like, she's got so much energy, sets alarms on holiday, that kind of, thing. Right. th. th. th. th. thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi 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 to to to to get, to get, you're that's got, you's got, you's got, you's that's that's that's thath. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, you. Yeah, you. Yeah, you. Yeah, you that. Yeah, you. Yeah, that. Yeah, that. Yeah, that. Yeah, that. that. that. that. that's that's that. that. that. that. tooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooomuuu. we might not like these people, you know, let's not make plans them straight away. But I guess that's a good thing. I mean, when the baby wouldn't sleep, I'm a bit more like, just let her cry, she'll sort herself out. Amanda's a bit more interventionist than me. But, you know, I mean, that's kind of horses for courses really, I mean, yeah, I guess the main the main the main the main the main the main the main the main the main the main the main the main the main the main the main th. th. th. th. that's that's that's that's that's that's that's kind. that's kind, that's kind, that's kind, that's that's kind of that's kind. 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 that's that's that's that's th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thanks. that that, to thanks, thanks, to thanks, to that's kind things. things. that's thing horses for courses really. I mean, yeah, I guess the main thing is that she's ended up making some friends that she's now trying to row back

because she's too friendly off the bat. So that's the problem. Yeah, speaking quite honestly, she's kind of the only person that's been through, so it's kind of the only real person I can talk to about it. And she. And she, yeah, yeah, and she, and she, and she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, the th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, th, tho, tho, tho, thi, thi, thi, that's that's that's that's that's, that's, that she's, that she's, that she's kind, that's, that's, that's, that's, th, th, th, th, th, that's, th, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, th... that's, thi, that's, thi, that's, that's, that's, that's thi, that's that's thi, that's that's that's thi, that's that's thi, that's that's that's that's that's thi, thi, thi, that's real person I can talk to about it. Yeah. And she also has a similar outlook. She just remarkably unfazed and just kind of like very happy, you know, I do sort of think you can't control what happens to you, but you can control how you react to it.

And so she's great to that. You know, it's not just a premature stuff. I mean, not to throw this in at the end, but the baby, but the baby, but thin, but throw, but thin, throw, thin, not, not, not, not, not thin, not thin, not throw, not throw, throw, throw, throw, throw, to to to to to to to to to to to to to to throw, I's, to to kind, to kind, to kind, to kind, to kind, to kind, to kind, to kind, to kind, to kind, very, very, very, very, very, very very, very, very, very, thi, thi, very very, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thrown, thrown, like, thrown, like, like, thrown, like, very, like, thi, thi. thi. thi's very thi. thi. thi. thi. thrown, very very very, not to throw this in at the end, but the baby had sepsis twice as well. Oh God. But fine, that's another podcast, that's fine, that's all fine. My door had it three times actually, yeah. Three lots. So just, yeah, yeah. So, you know, the first year was quite, quite spicy, but, full-fire chili. Yeah, yeah. She's brilliant, I kind of seeing the funny side and brushing it off and, you know, it's amazing.

She absolutely loves the muffin break in Lewisham A&E. Shout out to Lewisham A&E. We've been there a lot. But the muffin break, the cafe in Lewisham Hospital. Best fucking muffins in London. OK, we'll check it out. Get the lin the lin the lin the lin London really is starting to get out of evening. It's flying, Josh, it's flying. Cheers, Finn, this has been brilliant. If there's anything else you went to chucking grenade at the end about it? No, I think that's for sepsis, prematurity, yeah, that's probably about it. Busy, yeah. Busy, 18 months, the th. B, th.

Yeah, it's been brilliant. And good luck on the tour. Get your tickets. Yeah, hopefully people won't just come up to you and say, I saw your YouTube videos. They go, I came because I loved you talking about premature babies for 20 minutes. They are going to have quite a shock if to be this earnest as I've been at times. I think watch the NFL

clip and that'll be a bit more like your show than this episode. Yeah, watch the YouTube show and then it'll be a happy medium between the two I reckon. Brilliant, Finn. Thank you very much. Good luck with the tour mate and the YouTube. Cheers. Bye!
