Starting point is 00:00:00 Hello, I'm Rob Beckett. And 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 they're tha th 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.

The Ford government still isn't investing in public schools. Six years of cuts mean our students aren't getting the supports they need.
Starting point is 00:01:11 They can't wait another year. If the Ford government won't change, it's time to change the government. Our kids are counting on us. Join us at Building Better Schools.

What was right? Are they? Are they? Are they? Are they fine? Are they not now? No. Right. So what headphones do I buy? Old person's headphones with a lead? Yes. They're not the big ones though, are they? Because that makes my ears hot and I get tired. My ears get absolutely boiling. You do get hot easy, don't you? Yeah, I'm Nordic or whatever I am. I don't know what I am. Right. Shall I start? Yeah, but you might need to play the message. Oh, fuck. So what? No, I've turned the Bluetooth off on my phone.

Hello you're listening to parenting hell with
Starting point is 00:02:58 Olivia can you say Robbeckett? Can you say Josh Whittigum? Gosh, please. Close. There we go, that is 23-month old Olivia. We've been listening to your pod since the day one. Our girls are similar ages to Josh's, so we find listening to you incredibly funny and relatable. On listening back to Olivia's attempt, it sounds like a zip on the grow bag. Yes, it did sound like a zip, I thought. Thanks for keeping us laughing.
Starting point is 00:03:27 Imogen, not imagine. It sounded like they were in a spa. Yeah, it did. There was a kind of music at the background, wasn't there? But there was a kind of music at the background, but there's a lot of people saying that they like the episodes where we're in the worst state and I think they're about to go another one. I feel alright. You're a bit, a bit tired. Well, you've had a very busy few weeks, haven't we? That's the big. Fuck the job. Because our schedule recording these are quite full on.
Starting point is 00:03:52 Because our schedule. We've got to other. tell you about mine or should we do you know what I think yours is more exciting so should we get mine out the way? Yeah go now let's lead with yours let's lead with yours. Well okay well well I have been a bit stress recently but then I'll say something to know about it and then she said well Rob you probably are stressed because in six weeks you're doing an arena tour you're doing three episodes of Rob and Rob and I'm like Joe that is that's they 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 to to to they're they're 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 they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they're they're they're they're they're they're they're to to to to th th the thrue they. I I will will will try. I the. I will will that told told to told to to to to to they're they're to top of that your radio to show the Pyrton Hill podcast you're also hosting the Baftas and we are moving house and I was like generally it's quite a lot in six weeks isn't it? That is enough to make you a bit stressed. The great thing about us Rob is you know
Starting point is 00:04:34 we're both incredibly busy or we're not that busy well yeah actually this is the first time I'm not that busy coming up yeah it's like th th th th th th th th th th th th I th I th I th I th I th I th I th I th th I th th th th th th at th th thus thus thus thus thus thus thus the th thus. thi thi. thus. thi. that's that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that th is thi. th. thi. th. th. thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. It's is th. It's th. It's the is the is the the the the the the the the the the the that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's thi thi thi thi th is the first time I'm ever not that busy coming up. It's like our lives never sink. There's never a period when we're both really busy. Or one of us is really chilled. Like it's always separate. We never both off the same time. But that's why it works, isn't it? Because there's always one sad one. Exactly, because one of us is always hating our lives.
Starting point is 00:04:57 We can't both be happy. No, exactly. And so I'm looking forward to the next six weeks because I've got basically six weeks off apart from this, whereas you are having basically all of the work from your year put into six weeks. Yeah, it'll be fine though. I feel fine about it. But I'm a bit hungover because I'm a bit hungover because I'm in Manchester. So I don't where should I start. Where should I start? Yeah, it's difficult for me to say, Rob, where to start with your week, because I've not got much frame and reference, but you went to Man City versus Arsenal. Went to Man City, because, so basically, my mate James is a big Arsenal fan, lives in New York,
Starting point is 00:05:31 and he messaged me going, oh, I'd love to come to Arsenal games next season. And then, literally, weirdly, that day, a Man City message, saying, I would Rob, like to have away fans there and I have to be interviewed on this stage thing, a fan zone thing and then... Oh yeah, I've walked past that Amancey, actually when I went to Manseek, Remainty. So that's before the game. Yeah, before the game. And then watched the game in a box, like hospitality. I thought, you know what? So, theymea, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I've, I've... Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've. Oh, I've thought I had two tickets, I had four tickets, we didn't realize until last minute, so I've got Lloyd because he's like rent a crowd, Lloyd.
Starting point is 00:06:06 He goes everywhere, especially up north. He loves the game of football and then my mate, Dom as well. Anyway, Lloyd's mates with the Blossoms, but there's going to be a lot of name dropping in this episode, so just... Well, you haven't started yet. you. You've yet. You've you. You've th. You've th. You've th. You've th. You've had. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. tho. tho. th. to to to to to to to to th. tho. the their tho. th. th. th. th. th. their their their their th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the their their their their their their their their their their th.

Yeah, they are a huge deal in Stockport. Anyway, so it's us and then we get up there and I'm drunk by the time we get there at six, so then he puts us on this stage. Is this a Euro 2020 situation? It's like a reunion tour? If I weren't in the hospitality it would be a complete recreation but you can't get that drunk in hospitality because it's your everything's too sensible. I don't know you weren't a Plymouth versus Bolton.
Starting point is 00:06:50 Oh yeah you got battered in that far. Anyway and then we were this was before the Liverpool game we decided to do this when Arsenal were like nine points clear and then since we agreed to go Arsenal won a game so now he's coming over from New York because we were like if we lose it doesn't matter because we'll still be X amount of points ahead. Anyway we get in the box and my mate James I've not seen him for four years and in my lot I've got more famous in four years and he's never I've never seen him in New York. He's never seen me in London so he's a bit. And when when I I I I I I I I I I I I I I he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he the he he th th th. I th. I've th. I've th. I've th. I've th. I've th. I've th. I've th. I've th. I've th. I've th. I've th. I've th. I've th. I've th. I've th. I've th. I've th. I've th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th th th th th th th th th th. He's th. He's the the the the theeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee th. the th... And when you've been on the tele... He's Starstruck? No, not Star Trek. But he was a bit confused about why people wanted photos.
Starting point is 00:07:29 Because... Right, yeah. You know, he doesn't really watch British TV over there. And all my other mates get quite used to, you get quite used to your friend being on the tele and it's gradual. But he was a bit sort of shocked and then we got got the th got sort th got sort th got sort sort sort of shocked, th. th. th. th. th. He's sort of shocked, th. He's sort of shocked, th. He's sort sort sort sort sort of shocked, he's sort sort sort sort sort sort of shocked, he's sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort of shocked, he's sort sort sort sort sort of shocked, he's sort sort of shocked, he's sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort of shocked. He's sort of shocked. He's 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 got into the box and then he lost his head because Colo Torre was in there, Noel Gallagher. Just just for people who aren't into football. Ex-Arsonal and Man City? Yes, Arsenal Man City. So is that he was pumping to pull Dick off, ex-Arsonal Man City. Jack Whittle was like, yeah. Jack Whitehall was like yeah. And then we get in the box. No to to to to to to the to to the to the to to the to the the to the that. that. that. the that. that. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. tholau. th. th. thol tholot thor. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. that. He he he's is that's is that. He he he's is that. He he he he's is that. He he he he he's is that. He he he he he he he he he's. He he he he he he's. He he's. He he's. He he he's. He. He. He. He's.

He's just. He's just just. He's just. was like, yeah. And then we get in the box, Noel Gallagher's in there, Ted Lassow and the Ted Lassow crew, Jason Sudeakis, and which was quite funny because Lloyd's in Ted Lassow, aren't he? Oh, very briefly. But he gives it the bigger, like say he's like in the inner circle. Oh no, oh no, Rob.
Starting point is 00:08:27 So that was fine, but we were sat behind Jason Tadakis and it was with his kid. Was one of the high flying birds there failing to get in the inner circle of Noel Gallagher as well? No. This is the stariest box in the world. Jill Scott was in there as well. Anyway, so we sat behind Jacobs and Sodakis and he's there with his kid and it's a really beautiful shot because it's like, he's kids cudding into him. And then you've got man sitting in Arsenal
Starting point is 00:08:52 when the full stadium go mad in the background. I said to Lloyd, Oh, mate, there was a really nice photo of you and you don't You know I said to Lloyd and this is a I'm you should take a photo that and send it to was like what I would take it was a photo of is it he was like no no no he's you should make're like, you're like, no, yeah, it is weird if you don't know him, but you're giving it the bigger like, I to be waiting from works coming, do you know what I mean? Oh no.
Starting point is 00:09:35 And you're like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I'm struggling a little bit because it's no gala. with you. That is, for me, there's only one name in that box that's really setting the pulse racing. Like you. It's rare, it's rare that you meet so. In our job, you meet people like, I wouldn't be going fucking hell you met Kolo-Tore, but Noel Gallagher's one of the people that is really exciting to me. Exactly. And it's difficult because you know he's got sort of, their, 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, th, to, th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, that's, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so that's, so that's that's that's that's that's rare, so that's rare, so that's rare, so that's rare, so that's rare, so that's rare, so that's that's th. So, th. So, th. It's th. It's rare, thrary, thrue, thrue, thrue, thrue, that's rare, that's rare, that's rare, thrue, thrue. that's rare, that's rare, that's rare, I don't know, like, like if you're famous, it's a weird sort of, if you're famous, like, if you're famous.
Starting point is 00:10:06 Yeah, like, beetle owners, you have to acknowledge someone else who's famous. Yeah, exactly. So there's a thumbs up, and then obviously he's concentrating on the game. He stands up for quite a lot of the game. He's short, hasn't he? I've met him before. He's a small, he's like, this is coming from me. He's surprisingly short. Yeah, exactly. So, and I'm not massive, anyway, really, he's quite,
Starting point is 00:10:32 he's quite quiet, but then as soon as Man City win, he walks in as like, I'm fucking, thanks for coming, lads are just laughing. Is he doing the walk, like the kind of Gallagher-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-hea-hea-hea-hea-hea-hea-he's-he's-hea-hea-hea-he's-he's-he's-he's-he's-he's-hea-hea-hea-hea-hea-hea-hea-hea-hea-hea-hea-hea-hea-hea-hea-hea-hea-hea-hea-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-s. He. Hea-s. He's-s. He's-s. He's-s. He's-s. He's-s. He's-s. He's-s. He's-s. He's-s. He's-s. He's-hea-hea-hea-hea-hea. Yeah, he's doing the walk towards the end because he's happy that they've won, right? Yeah. Anyway, so we're all chatting and he's really nice bloke and he's really friendly and happy and he's getting drunk and laughing and take the piss out of Arsenal, which is fine. And then started telling me that mathematically Newcastle could finish above us. And I was like, no I'm not having a picture. But I obviously obviously obviously obviously obviously obviously obviously obviously. But I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not the the they. I'm not th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm not the th. I'm th. I'm th. I's th. I's really th. I's really th. I's really th. I's really th. I's th. I's th. I's th. I's th. I's th. I's th. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He's th. He's th. He's really th. He's really th. He's really th. He's really th. He's really thr. He's really thr. He's really thr. He's really thr. He's really thi. He's really th. He's really thi. He's really th. He's really but I didn't want to ask. So I literally just threw my mates under the bus, no, you don't mind you, my mates want a picture? Is that, oh, of course Rob, don't worry about it? Obviously, I'm in it, I'm in the photo as well. But I just, but I played it like, you know, but I played it like, you know,
Starting point is 00:11:12 but I played it, theymek, absolutely, absolutely, absolutely, absolutely, absolutely, absolutely, absolutely but it's obviously exciting me, and I'll go like. Did you mention parenting and whether he wants to talk to about it for 50 minutes? Absolutely not. No. But you know, people in bands like that, I've listened to Oasis all my life and at quite important moments, they're quite for laddie, laddie group, they have a strong emotional connection with bloc. thoen. to their thoak. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. they. they. they. they. tho. to people people people people. to people. to people. to people. to people. to people. to people people people. to people. to people people. to people. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. People. People.

I've, to. I, but I'd say most blokes have cried to an oasis song at some point. Yeah. Or it's made a fe that incredible. But that's thing you can't really, I think if you meet ever meet any of your musical idols, you cannot talk to them about the song because it means so much more to go, oh yeah, that song that, because I used to listen to that, but they don't care. It's weird. They don't want to know that you've connected to it emotionally. It makes it really odd if you're just having a beer after the football to be like, oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh yeah, yeah, I don't remember.
Starting point is 00:12:14 Yeah, that's them bully around football. Yeah, that's fine. Also, you're at their ground, you've been smashed for one, you've got to take it. What was difficult was afterwards is like a bar and I'd say 25 man city fans come up to, was like, enjoy that? Oh God. No, obviously, because we lost. Like, what do we say? Oh God. But this happened and this was really awkward. I'd say it's most awkward moment in my entire life, Josh.
Starting point is 00:12:48 Yes, please. Yes, please. It was so awkward I had to physically hide. I crouched down behind a car to hide. Oh my God. So let's go back to James, my mate James, absolute legend. See the New Yorker. He's, he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he's James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, James, he'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 the the the the the the the the the the th. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He's, he's, he's, he's th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. th th th tooooooooooooo. th th th th th th th th th veliest, most non-assuming guy ever. When he's pissed, he's an absolute liability, but not a really bad one. He's not fighting or kicking off. He'll just, you just won't realize he's absolutely battered and then he'll either, you'll either lose him, you'll just get lost in
Starting point is 00:13:18 somewhere that you shouldn't get lost. He got lost coming out of the ground. There was one exit. The other th. He he right he didn't go on pitch no he didn't go to pitch he'll fall asleep stuff like that and he really cares about Arsenal if Arsenal lose I'm like that's a shame whatever he will just sit there go oh come up but what I'm just like three hours later in the pub when everyone else he's having a drink he'll he'll shout about someone not tracking back okay yeah so we the the the th th th th th th th th th th I th I th I th I th I th I th I th I the the the the the the the the the the the the the the he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he he he he he he he he he he he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's? Yeah, yeah. So we're in the box and someone from Man City goes, Rob, would you and your friends like to meet the players after the game? So like, okay, that sounds amazing, sure. But that also sounds high stakes.
Starting point is 00:13:54 Huge high stakes. They've just lost 4-1 as well. So they're not gonna be in the don't care about me and I'm like a 40 year old bloat just try and I don't want to ask a 20 year old boy to have a photo. Do you know what I mean? I respect and admire these footballers but I don't want to be fan-galling them. I don't want this smoke. But I'm like, okay, but I'm one of those people that's like, I'm open to a new experience. Yeah, you've got to meet them given the option.
Starting point is 00:14:32 Right, yeah, but so when we get down there, we're not really meeting and we're in this corridor which is from the dress room to the car park and there's like a hoard. It's basically no luck of the Nognt. It's, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thus, thus, thi, thus, thi, thi, but tho, but I th, but I th, but I, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, 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, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, tho, tho, tho, thoooooo, tho, thoo, thoo, tho, tho, thi, thi, I's th luck at the NTAs where you meet people on the red carpet and all the autograph hunters are behind a like a barrier. So we get shuffled around there, just four 40-year-old bloke and then there's young kids and there's people that look like they won competitions or it's like a, they're from a charities and they're waiting there to meet the plies and they've then like I thought this is a bit awkward then Trussard comes out Arsenal player and refuses to have a photo of a kid and the kid's like can I get a photo and he went next time I'm like next time? There is no next time for this kid but I also get it as well that if he has a photo and he's all smiling and that goes online people are like what you're doing smiling after the game we the game the game the game the game it it it it it it is the game it is the game it is the game it is the game it's is the game it's is the game it's is the game it's is the game it's is the game the game the game the the the the the the th is th is th is th is th is th is th. th.

Starting point is 00:15:26 he shuffles past but it's a bit like a, you know, a funeral where you shake all the people's hands that come? Oh yeah, yeah. Because Arsenal just been, they've lost the league, they've been demolished. The mood, the mood is awake. their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, thi, their, thi, thi, their, their, their, I's, I's, I'm their, their, I'm thules, thus, their, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I's a thoom'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, I I I I's, I's, I I I's, I's, I I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's a thi, he's a thin, he's a tho, tho, their, their, thoooo-s. Shuffled, thu thooooooo-s. shuffles. Shuffles, thoom's a th man sitting like players still laughing and joking and singing. Oh my god. So now I'm just stood in this corridor and his arsenal players and they've all got black tracks suits on as well. So it looks like the loo'clock right? So the lady, lovely ladies with us, she said, oh um, actually it's a bit awkward round here.
Starting point is 00:15:56 Do you want to it in the end we're now in the car park right by the coach and all the cars and it's two security guards me my mate who's an artful fan who's absolutely shit-faced Lloyd and Dolom Sports Bradford right yeah and we're all and Lloyd obviously knows a lot of players as well because they're through soccer I am and he's got loads of mates their mates they're so he sort of half knows them but we're being moved around like the to to to to to to to to to to to their to their to their their to their to their to their their so so so so so so I I I I I I so their so their so I so I'm their so I'm their so I'm their so I's their some. their so I'm their some. their so I some. I's their some. their some. I's their some. their some. their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their the the the th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm so. I'm th. I'm so. I'm they. I's's and then so anyway I'm just stood there and then I don't know what's going on and it was Nathanaki comes out who's Man City sort of reserve center back nice guy yeah and the security guards goes they would like a photo I'm like oh no no I don't want to photo I don't want to have a photo I don't want to to I don't want to have photos a photo to to to to to to to the to to to to to to to to to the to to the to to to to to to to to the to to to to to the to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their to their to to to to their to their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their they. their their they. their their their their their their their their their their theirto have a photo, I don't want to have a photo, but I don't want to have photos of Man City players after they've beat an arsenal, like, like, that's not okay. So in the end, Dom took one for the team and I was like, Dom, you're
Starting point is 00:16:54 going to have to have a photo with him this is the bit that like, yeah. But James, my mate James, isn't used to these sort of things. No, very few people are used to being put in a car park and told to have a photo with Nathan Aki. Also, he's been with Ted Lassow, no. No Gallagher, Jack Holding and Ben White come out. Okay. Arsenal. All Arsenal players.
Starting point is 00:17:27 Some of the biggest names are Arsenal in a while. Yeah, and also two like British guy, English guys that I think I've met before but I'm not sure an event. Oh God, this is awkward because I'm just stood in the car park and I'm worried that the stewards are going to say they want a photo, right.... 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, oh, stewards are going to say they want a photo right? Oh no, I know. But he didn't ask that because James starts clapping. Martin, Rob, Ben, it's not over. We can still do it. Keep the shit up, lads.
Starting point is 00:17:57 And I'm like, what are you doing? Oh no, I know. But he's doing it drunk. So he's like, I'm like, this is all, I know, I know, I'm trying to be, but he's doing it drunk. So he's like, lads, come, so I'm like, this is all, I can't. And I'm like, first of all, it is over. The league's definitely over. That is mental. It's absolutely insane.
Starting point is 00:18:14 It's like, did they see you? Well, Lloyd fell to the floor and hid in the corner, I walked behind a car and sat down. And I've never dropped my mate out quicker. Dom is a Bradford fan stood there, what's going on? But it was like so, it was so awkward because he was like, he was like, he was like, he was like, he was like, he was like, he was like, and I'm just like, and obviously James is just a massive fan and he's not used to this sort of, but he's like he was applauded him like you would if you're in the stands.
Starting point is 00:18:52 Yeah, yeah. And it's great because he cares and he's really upset. Oh, I don't know if it's great. And they look so sad and he was trying to jim up. Oh God. I still, and I still get red when I think about it. Oh God. How did they react? He said, might I know the God winked at him. But I was hid behind a car. That is mortifying.
Starting point is 00:19:15 But I don't even mean like James. I don't even know if you listen to this. How have you spoken to him this morning? No, we were both so drunk though and the drunk the night before. It's quite, I've been so pissed for two days. Yeah, it's not like it. I'm excited. Remember the last time you got drunk two days in a row? Not for ages and I've genuinely not had more than two drinks for about six months and then because James came in Manchester. Did you have a night out in Manchester? Like two bloody lads? Lou said go and have a couple of days with your mate. It's more boozy when I'm not on tour than I am on tour. I didn't drink on tour. But we just sat in the sun. It was really sunny in Manchester on Tuesday and just got drunk in the sun and then it got, and then we all got giggly and giddy and got carried on to the next, that's my voice is bad. How late were you out, Rob? I'm living vicariously through you these days. How late were you out?
Starting point is 00:20:06 Well, no, we started drinking at midday on the Tuesday. Oh, word. And then it went to Rickage vase, and then when I was in bed by 11, so it went too bad, but yeah, I just haven preset spending limit. Redefine possible with Business Platinum.

Learn more at Miller.c.c.a. Must be legal drinking age. Um, kid stuff though. Sorry, that was a massive tangent. But from the kid stuff, the two things we need to talk about. One is the pile. What's the pile? So, because we're moving, right? And I don't know about your house, but basically there's always clean washing on the spare and bed. That's basically where it goes and at some point it's supposed to go the to to the to the the the to the the the the to be. the the the the the the it's supposed to go in a cupboard or a drawer. Yeah, yeah. We're never really on top of that. It doesn't really happen.
Starting point is 00:21:25 We sort of live off that bed. But then because we've got these really old racketey, IKEA furniture that we need to get rid of because we don't want to take to a new place, but no one will happen. clothes that are in there on the pile to either go to charity shop, be re-hung up, work out what's fit. And I've been working, they've been working, the piles out of control, mate. All of the clothes, there's no clothes anywhere apart from the pile. And now the girls are referring to it as the pile. Oh no. And so and then when we had a babysit, one of my daughter's got the top dirty and then the babysit went,
Starting point is 00:22:05 okay, where are you, let's get you, let's get you some new clothes, where are they? And they haven't got any wardrobes or drawers in their rooms now the kids. And the kids were like, they're on the pile. And then the babysit was like, what's the pile? And then Lou, always shuts the babysit of the pile. And we're both living in shame about the pile. But we can lose down a video, we contemplate and showing social media the pile to shame us into sorting it out.
Starting point is 00:22:33 Because it is disgusting. Yeah, of course, like I did with my car. Is it a pile worse than my car? Do you know what? It's worse, but but but but but but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we's, we's, we's, we's, we's, we's, we's, we's, we's, we's, we's, we's, we's, we's, we's, we's, we's, we's, we's, we's, we's, we's, we's, we's, we's the, we's the, we's the, we's the, we's the, we's the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. Loo, we're the. Loo, we're the. Loo, we're the. Loo, we're the. Loo, we're the. the the the. the the the the So the room's clean and the stuff's going. Let me, I'm going to send you the pile. Send me a pile. And you can see the pile. We're ashamed of it, but hopefully if we come out as pileers, we can make other pilers feel okay.
Starting point is 00:22:55 Yeah, exactly. We can't be the only one with an out-of-control pile. But the pile is starting the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the only only only only.

We can't the the the started creeping downstairs, Josh. So what's on it? All of your clothes? All of the clothes. So basically, when we do the washing it, and it's clean, I say we, mainly Lou, we'll bring it up and put it on the spare room bed to sort of get it out of the kitchen. Fucking Nora, Fucking how?
Starting point is 00:23:16 Fucking how? That's unbelievable. Because it's not just clean clothes, it's clothes that need to be either thrown away because they're stained or sent to a cherry shop. It's an organization job, isn't it? It's unbelievable. I know, it's awful isn't it? Oh, so, you know, I'll say my daughter wasn't sleeping very well. Anyway, so we've started bribing her by saying if you stay in your bed and don't come back out, you can get those little bunnies that they love from Sangeris where you put like a quid in the machine and get a bunny.
Starting point is 00:23:48 So they're two quid a go, but since we've said that, she slept through the whole night, three nights in a row. So we're six quid down. And every morning she comes in and goes, bunny and then you go yes however I'm just looking at this from a budgeting point of view I think two quid a night's worth it for a good night sleep it's not for all bad roll if you say your kid will never wait you up in the night for two quid right you are taking that deal every day yeah of
Starting point is 00:24:18 course yeah every day it's like buying a coffee you don't think about buying a coffee and the energy you get from sleeping through the night it'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 the the the the the the the the the the the th th th th th th th th th tho th 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 to to to to to to to to to to to to their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the energy you'll get from sleeping through the night, it's better than the coffee. Take away the need for the coffee. Exactly, exactly Rob. But the only the main worry is bunnies. Once she's got all, because she'll get all the bunnies after about a month. Yeah, but then you could change it to something else of equal value. Yeah, but I'm the the their. their. Yeah, their. their. their. Yeah, th. th. th. th. th. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. to. to. to. to. to. to. the the to. to. to. to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the 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. the th. the. nene. ne. ne. nea. nea. nea. nea. nea. nea. nea. nea. nea. nea. nea. nea. ne. to. the moment we're paying two quid a night. How old is she? Which is bad? Five? So if you're looking at another 13 years of that. I'm not having an 18-year-old coming in in the morning going, do I get my bunny? I say no. You've got more problems going on.
Starting point is 00:24:56 If you still up for the bunny, at 18? We've got a bigger fish to fry it'm afraid. I had a similar situation Rob you know I said I was going to do learning to ride a bike. Yeah so I don't think I updated on this I don't think I updated on learning to ride a bike I said to my daughter because her bike she's had it since her third birthday I think it was unused basically yeah classic. We've left in the garden enough that's gone quite rusty right sure so I said when you learn to learn to the to the to to to to to to to the to to to to the to to to the to to the to to to the the to to the 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 the 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'm th in the garden enough that's gone quite rusty. Right, sure. So I said, when you learn to ride your bike, I'll buy you a new bike. Okay, because she sort of needs one and you assume that's going to take a little while.
Starting point is 00:25:34 I was like, well, she needs a new bike and this will make her learn to ride a bike. Also, I don't think she's going to learn to ride a ride a ride a ride a ride a bike to ride to ride to ride a bike to ride to ride to ride to ride to ride to ride to ride to ride to ride to ride to ride to ride to ride to ride a bike a bike a bike a bike a bike a bike a bike a bike a bike a bike a bike a bike a bike a bike to ride a. Yeah. 24 hours later she's learned to ride a bike Rob. Okay. So I'm down a bike straight away. I couldn't believe it happened to the point where I was holding on to her and she was going stop holding on to me and then she just rode off. So you got have you bought her a bike or what are you getting a shop? I said we go to the shop. You better get off of the 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. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th.

We've got a ridgeway or something like that.
Starting point is 00:26:09 They're pretty good. Have you? The old ridge weights. And then I could just adjust them until they're about seven. What else is going on with you, Josh? Because her bike at the moment is quite. be able to use it when she gets a new one then? She wants me to get a bike so we can go on bike rides. That's nice. Oh I can't I don't know. Can you ride a bike? Can you swim? Yes I can ride a bike? Can you swim though? I can't ride a bike? Let's move. No I can't swim. We've discussed this before at length. At length. I can't swim. At whip. At whip at whip. At whips more like thi I I I I I I I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I don't th. I don't th.

I don't to to th. I don't th. I can't swim. We've discussed this before. At length. At length. At length. At whip, at whips more like, were you, or themts. What, are you going to, you've got to learn to swim though.
Starting point is 00:26:51 I know, it's on the list. But the list is currently. So you've got driving for rows, you for swimming. What else is on your list? Oh, the up is on my list. Tidy up! All right, Mr Pyle. At least some of that's trying to tidy up. I know, sorry, just tidy up, he's like, that's just got to be on the list every day at some point though. Like you'll never get in that off the list.
Starting point is 00:27:18 That's like writing down breathing. No, but I've got to sort out my office. Maybe that's right. Okay, fair enough. So what's this learning to swim plan? Well, I learn to swim. It's not really a plan. No, just because you're tired. Too tired, Roch. So does your daughter go swimming lessons? No, she's starting at school next year, so we've let it, we've let it go slack because we never pick up the slay. Yeah, yeah, she's been quite a few times. She did swimming lessons and then they changed the way that you book them on the website of the leisure center and it was too annoying. So how come as you never learned? Because I was allergic to chlorine. Oh yes, I remember. Yeah, I was gonna say all. Yeah, I was gonna say. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I was. Yeah, I was gonna. Yeah, I was gonna. Yeah, I was gonna. Yeah, I was gonna. Yeah, I was gonna. Yeah, I was gonna. Yeah, I was gonna. Yeah, I was gonna. Yeah, I was gonna. Yeah, I was gonna. Yeah, I th. Yeah, I th. Yeah, I th. Yeah, I'm the the th. Yeah, I th. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I's. Yeah, I's. Yeah, I was. Yeah, I was. Yeah, I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was, I was, I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. Yeah, I was. Yeah, I was. Yeah, I was. Yeah, say, oh. What happens when you get in glory?
Starting point is 00:28:06 No, I'm all right now. You sink. Oh, you're all right now though, just your skin was bad. Right, so yeah, I suppose you can't go yet. Yeah. Can you just learn to swim in the sea? That's a tough place to learn the sea. Tough place to learn the sea. Yeah, you know, things that can go wrong outweigh, things that could go right
Starting point is 00:28:26 in that situation. What is that just take my three-year-old into the sea? There's a lot more to lose than gain by when you learn to swim in the sea, I'd say. All that's the water that would be good for your skin, wouldn't it? I could get in a swimming pool and do some strokes. You could do lengths? Breastroa? I don't know if I could do a length. I do breaststroke with my arms and kick with my legs, crawl with my legs, breast stroke with my arms. Could you jump into a pool and swim to the bottom and up again?
Starting point is 00:28:54 Or with that panicked out? No, fuck that. Really? Yeah. Unless it's the fucking TV cameras or podcast, I just want a private moment in the swimming pool. You want a private moment in a swimming pool. So it's going to be stressful though, what's going to happen though, Josh is if you can't swim, so I know you don't need this you're getting stressed, but you're getting a to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get a sa.. But you're, but you're, but you're, but you're, to get a s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s sa, so.a, so. So, so. So, so much, so much, so much, so much, so much, so. So, so much, so. So, so much, so much, so much, so much, so much, so much't swim, so... I know you don't need this, you're getting stressed.
Starting point is 00:29:25 But you're, as soon as your daughter as proper lessons, like mine now will swim off into the deep end. So if they're in the deep end, are you going to allow him to go to deep in because I'd be quite anxious watch them swim away. Rones can go. I do all tired Rob I'm absolutely fine. Your ears got massive as well I know you're tired. I don't care. I do care that's why. We've got Birmingham Marina tomorrow Josh. You've got Birmingham Marina tomorrow Josh. You better have enough of it. I will I can turn it on as Nick Knowles will attest having been on the wheel with me.

Starting point is 00:33:48 just going to go asleep? No because I wasn't that tired in the morning I was buzzed up. I was excited. And then after lunch I was in a... Well that's your problem Josh is why you get this tired, but like for the gig tomorrow. It's because I love doing these things. Exactly. So you'll get a buzz of energy and adrenaline and the show will go great, but then once that excitement's gone, then you crash. So that's why you always keep going, isn't it? But you've got to time off. That's the problem. It's like, I really want to do to do the show, I want to do to do the show to do the show to do the show the show to do the show the show to do the show to do the show the show the show the show the show the show to do the show the show the show the show the show the show the show the show the show the show their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their the our tour. It's not like I'm, you know, I'm not like someone in the city who's going, I hate my job, but when I'm 50 I'm going to quit and I'm never going to work again.
Starting point is 00:34:30 I'm going, I can't believe I get to do these things, I'm going to do them. And before I know I'm doing 10 of them in the fucking week. All right, okay.

Starting point is 00:35:35 Hi Robin Josh. I'd love a Sb.S's called Bank the Food. We offer a free app which will send you a ping when you are at the supermarket telling you what your local food bank needs. Giving your reminder at the precise time that reminder is needed. This makes sure food banks get exactly what they need and not just baked beans. In the short time we've been running, we have amassed over 31,500 users on the app supporting over 350 food banks across the UK. Food banks are a sad reality at the moment for many families, but weekly donations are down because of the cost of living crisis. We are simply asking people to download our free app follow the local food bank and if they're in a position to donate to give what they can.
Starting point is 00:36:17 Joe Lysick kindly voiced our promotional film for us last year which made a huge different to highlight our work and support the food banks we work the food...... to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to, to, th.

So that's really good because actually sometimes if there's certain people that need certain things at those food banks, they can send you little message on your app and you can get that and donate it and I think that's a very clever way of doing it, Josh, don't you? Yeah, I think that is really good. I think that is really good. I think that I that. I that is really good. I that is really good. I that is really good. I that is really good. I that is really good.
