Starting point is 00:00:00 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.

Have you got anything to say before today's guest? We've got seven minutes left until they come home. Don't say like that because it makes people think that you don't care about the podcast. Yes, I do care about the podcast. No, I do care about the week. This is a countdown. If I had to say the bit I care least about on the podcast, it'd be the 10 minutes before the guest on the Friday. I like it.
Starting point is 00:05:05 I like it because we never know what it's going to be. I think it's a freedom to it. It's like jazz. You're something jazz. You want some child jazz? Do you want some child? I don't know what? Yeah, I'm actually hurry up, Mr. Travel. Mr. Travel?
Starting point is 00:05:25 I went, what? What? What? Why, actually, because you're always traveling somewhere. Oh, that's good. Yeah. That was felt a bit barbed. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:36 I was like, normally dropping you to fucking school. Yeah, too bloody right. So she's been calling the, to, I,the older one who's like seven now is getting really grown up. So she was invited to my five-year-olds. My five-year-old had a birthday party of a girl from school. All five-year-old's there, but my seven-year-old was invited because the kid who's birthday was, has got an older sibling who's a birthday, or something. So they went there and the fivethe five-year-olds planning the party and the seven-year-old's allowed to plan the party, but they found the seven-year-old in the cafe section of this big sports, like this hall place, having some Maltese and a drink sat chatting with the eight-year-old,
Starting point is 00:06:15 and he's like, you're all right, girls, you want to join the party.two sort of mums on a coffee morning. And the other thing as well, she's got an Elsa swimming bag and she said, it's a seven year old, she went, Mommy, can I not have the Elsa bag anymore? I was like, yeah, but it's the bag still worked. Why? Because the bag is not broke or anything. Yeah, but no one, I don't like Elsa, no one really likes Elsa anymore at school. She just wants a plain one. And I was like, oh, okay, but do you like Elsa? Yeah, I quite like Elsa, but no one really likes Elsa anymore. And I was like, oh, God, here we go. When we go to Disney, do you still want to go to, we'll see the princesses? You know, and Elsa and all the frozen? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. And I's, th. And I's, th. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, th. 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, 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, oh, oh, oh, th, oh, oh, oh, th. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, I's, I's, th. Oh, I, I, I, th. Oh, I, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, frozen, yeah, yeah, but it's different at Disney, isn't it? Because it'll just be us. Oh no, oh no.
Starting point is 00:07:06 It's horrible, isn't it? Suppressing who she is already, Rob? I know. And then so, I was, okay, don't worry, we'll give you a plain bag. So we've got a big, like, covered the bag. You know, like a black material one. Grab that. A tote. Because toa she needed to take, she's doing a, I've told about she's in this musical with the school, like a year production.
Starting point is 00:07:31 Yeah. She's playing a queen B. So she has to do a haughty face. And she has to alltake that into school. She wouldn't use her else a bag. She doesn't like that bag. Grubb this black bag, put her stuff in it, just about to leave the house. I see the other side of it. It's a bafter bag. When I hosted the Baftas, they gave me a bottle of champagne to say thank you and a card in a bag that has got the British Academy and Film Television amazing. Amazing. So now my daughter's carrying her props. Oh my God. For a debut in a year two musical with a bafter bag and I went can have that bag bag? She doesn't know what that means obviously. Oh no no it's the
Starting point is 00:08:15 wrong one I need that bag for us because I've never been so close. I could an anecdote that will ruin my life. By pure accident as well it wouldn't't even, it wasn't, like, fair enough if you can help us get that bag and give it to your kid, it's like what you're doing that's weird. It would have been a complete accident, but it would have been a complete, accident, but it would have been if you heard about what Beckett's doing, fucking wanker. Send his kid's trainer, you know the, I've not had this on my shoes for years. Oh I try, I saw I thought you
Starting point is 00:08:51 meant a trainer. No but no she hasn't got a trainer but like a running shoe the one she wears to the train and because they go in in in in in in in in in in their their they go in they go in they go in they go in their their they go in they go in their their th go in their the the the the their the. the the the their thrown. I throwne their throwne. I've not 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 throe. I've train. I've traine. I've traine. I've traine. tre's trea' tra' truee. truee's truee's traine. I've traine. it back all the way. You know what it looks like a mouth at the bottom of the shoe? But we didn't realize how bad it was, and she didn't tell us. So we can literally peel all of it off. She's been slapping along like that with some wonderful. No wonder she dropped a second this year. Yes, exactly. I'll get some some running spikes. It's going to be like high-a-o-s the the the the thitude thitude thitude thitude thitude thitude thitude thitude thi-s thi-s thi-s thi-s thi-s thi-s thi-s thi-s thi-soo'-s thi-s thi-soo-s thi-s thi-s thi-s thi-s thi-s thi-s thi-s thi-s thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi-s thi-s she thi-s she thi-s she didn't thi thi thi to-s she didn't the proper old shoes? With a pair of sketches she's got no chance she's fly past her. Exactly. So we discovered that so we felt bad so she's been wearing her older sisters for the last few weeks because you can't buy. They're big feet. they're got big feet. It's got big feet. It's got to be like same-sized feet as a sister. That's maybe that's why she's why she's why she's why she's why she's why she's why she's why she's why she's why she's why she's she's th she's th she's th she's th she's th she's th she's th she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she she's that she's that she's that she's th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. She's been th. She's been th. She's been th. She's been th. She's been th. She's been th. She's been th. She's been th th. She's been thi's been thi's been thi. She's been thi. She's been that she's been wear any trainer to school. No you have to be like white white ones. I don't know why. God forbid anyone has a personality at school. What is the point in uniform? Jesus Christ. I just think it was so archaic isn't it? But it does make it easy Rob. Does it? Oh every morning? Because my daughter... Yeah, no, no, yeah, but you'd probably end up get your own uniform, like Einstein, we just wore like a white shirt and blue suit. Steve Jobs.
Starting point is 00:10:08 But they just do their own, everyone does their own uniform and they just put it a massive markup on it so they can stick a fucking badge on it. It's basically. I think I might own one of those shops that just sells the uniform. You don't have to work one week a year in it last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last last. of August fucking hammering out. Everyone's queuing. That's the dream. I see those people queuing the last week of August and it's like that looks stressful. Do you not do it online? You can do it online but also you want to go in for sizes that's the difference because they grow so of course. But also as well and like you know what's in a very privileged position and we're in a privileged and we can't afford to buy the uniform until payday. So if pay days end of August on the 31st and your kid starts in the third,
Starting point is 00:10:47 you can't go there two weeks earlier because you haven't got your money in, do you mean? We've got a good thing at the school where it's like, um, the second-hand uniform. Yeah, that's good'd get up early. And anyway, it was about 6 a.m. and I sort of rolled over to sort of give Lou a hug, right? And I was like, and I was so not with it and a bit tired and groggy. Basically, my Lewards was in the shower and it was my five-year-old.
Starting point is 00:11:16 And I panicked and thrown. Obviously it just my kid, but I was like, why is she so small? Why is why it's loose tiny? Oh, he made me laugh. That is funny. So did you continue with that like? No, I just put my, I went over and left the armor and I was like, because she's so much smaller, my hand sort of touched the bed and then I could feel something under my elbow bit and I was like, I pat it down and then she went and then she was like right dad and I was like oh it's you but I was like she shrunk. That's a lot it's like like the like big it's like the scene in big. The scene in big is exactly that but I mean yeah just I'm ending off but I've been enjoying doing the
Starting point is 00:12:01 the rehearsals for Queen B. Have you been playing the other parts? Yes, but it's more, the way they do it, it's pretty clever actually the way they write these musicals for the kids is that it's not a lot relying on other people. Yeah. It's sort of like, if she's got a couple of lines that start from, the queen enters, she sort of does her lines. Oh, that's good. Yeah. And then it will be like into a song. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:27 And then out and there's, so it's not loads. So you're not waiting for the cue of six kids in a row. Exactly. And also if it's longer lines, you're not. You're not, like someone. If they finish on a different line to confuse the other kids and to. just it's tough man. No she's not. No she's not of course not. Well my daughter's in musical about bumblebees and she one of the stage directors that says the Queenance is with a haughty facial expression. Yeah I don't even
Starting point is 00:12:53 know what haughty. What's haughty? And then like kind of dismissively arrogant yes I googled it but the teacher told her good she went just haughty to basically act like everyone in this this this this this th in in in in in in in in in in in in in th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th. th. thus thus. th. thus. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. 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. they. they. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. t. te. te. toge. toge. te. toge. te. toge. th. th. good, she went just, hold to see, she went, just basically, act like everyone in this room smells. Oh, that's good. Which is, yeah. So she's been doing that face, which is good, so I'm looking forward to seeing that. But yeah, that's sort of what we're up to. Rob, your microphone.

So I don't think they were happy with it, but there you go. First things first, could you, you know when Sonia was, was she playing the saxophone? The trumpet, Josh.

So Joanie is six, should be seven, August the 16th, and Eliza is 12, going on a hundred and fucking two. Yeah, I've been speaking to a lot of people that have got kids that are like sort of pre-teenage, 10 to 12 and it is, it feels intense. It's a phrase tweenage when they're like teenagers early.
Starting point is 00:16:02 Is that the phrase? But I'm not having any of it. Eliza is already, 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's, it's th, it's th, it's th, it's th, it's tha, it's tha, it's thii-it, it's thi, it's thioling. It's thoing, thoing, thoing, thoing, thoing, thoing, thoing, thoing, thoing, thoing, thiiii.

Going, tha.ooing, thaa'a.ooooinginginging, tha, tha, tha, tha, that the threat? I'm not having any of it. Eliza is already a teenager. Is she? Right, okay. It's crazy stuff. It's, I tell you, I promise you, once. She started playing the trumpet. She's not playing the trumpet. Please, Josh. Josh. It's actually been a bit of a prick, oh come on now. I'm just so excited. I'm so excited this is finally happening. When your kids are in year six, right, at primary school, and they're going on their leavers tour and you think, aren't they grown up, right? They have the summer holiday and they're going to year seven.
Starting point is 00:16:37 They're like different human, they just get out of bed one day after a week of being at secondary school. And they're completely different human beings. It's incredible like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like like their their their they they they they they they they they're like they're like they're like they're like they're like secondary school and they're completely different human beings. It's incredible. Because of the responsibility they have, she's got a laptop, she's emailing teachers. It's crazy. And my daughter, my daughter didn't have a phone until about two, three months ago, so she went into year seven without a phone and she did a couple of terms without it. That was quite hard because every single person had one apart from her. But now she's got her phone and it's crazy stuff. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:17:14 Oh my, what are your, have you got to have phone rules? Like, is it? Oh, massive ones. She's got no social media. She's got be real. I'm fine with that. But she's not allowed Snapchat, she's not allowed Instagram, she's not allowed any of that. She has WhatsApp to talk to her friends and the phone remains downstairs on charge when she goes to bed and stuff.
Starting point is 00:17:36 She's good with it. But she's waited so long, she's like anything will do. Oh God, I'm so scared about it all. Did you... Just don't give in. That's all I say to you. I don't care about, anyone says, at 10, there were kids in, I'm not being funny at the primary school. My six-year-old, there's a couple of kids with phones, there's seven. Seven, yeah. Bloody how?

Starting point is 00:19:57 and the perfect pairing for your game time. When Miller Light set out to brew a light beer, they had to choose great taste or 90 calories per can. They chose both, because they knew the best part of beer is the beer. Your game time tastes like Miller time. Learn more at Miller Light.CA. Must be Legal Drinking Age. You sound like to me, you don't take any shit.
Starting point is 00:20:25 No, not at all. And is that always been the case or did that come at the age of fuck right this is now phones, this is now serious or were you like no chocolate? No I've always but no it's everything in moderation isn't it? I've seen, I've seen, I've had children round before. Yeah. And if they haven't got a sweet drawer or a crisp drawer, they come in here and they're like animals. Yeah. They just want to eat everything, because they have never got it.
Starting point is 00:20:52 Whereas mine, they take it, I leave it. We've got the draw. They're not in there all the time. You know, I think everything in moderation is their, I, I, tha, thi, their, thi, thi, their, their, their, their, their, their, thi, their, their, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, their, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, their, like, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, they're, their, they're, their, their, their, their, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, their, like, the My little Joanie is, she's quite feral. She's sort of always got her hair in her face and she's, you know, you know, when it's really hot, you're like darling, come on, let's get you the sun cream out. She don't care. She's just wanders about. She's quite a free spirit. Eliza's completely opposite. She was the one who, you know, I had to cut all the labels out. She hated seams in the socks. She was very, she's always been very particular. So they're
Starting point is 00:21:27 completely different children. But Eliza now, I feel as they get older, you have to pick your battles. You can't, you can't get annoyed over things that perhaps you would do with the younger ones. Yeah. Big bigger fish to fry. It's harder because you like, like the big, big, big, big, not doing that they they literally come back and go it's almost like interviewing a politician where they go well so and so is doing it and so and so is doing it and it and you're like Rob and then you know with that with that I just say I don't care I'm not interested in what other people are doing why why you're talking to me about that that that's a good I that I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I that's a good that's a good that's a good that's a good that's a good that's a good that's a good that's a good that's a good that's a good that's a good that's a good that's a good that's a good that's a good that's a good I'm that's a that's a that's a that's a that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a good I I I I I I I I I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm that's a good I'm that's a good that's a good that's a good that's a good that's a good I that's a good I that's a good I'm that's a good I'm that's a good I'm that's that's that's that's a good I want to go, well I tell you what, their mom and dad are a fucking pair of pricks. And they're going to, and their kids are going to turn out like them. Okay? I have to say it has been said, Rob.
Starting point is 00:22:10 You're not wrong. You're not long. Well, the little known fact about your friend, I hate their parents, and I've put up their parents for 13 years. and I don't need to be told about what they do because you know what I fundamentally disagree of everything they do or you could just go I don't care it's probably a bit of a better way to do you think do you think Carol Jackson was a good mom on screen a great man Josh yeah she wasn't my real mom you do know no no I'm pretty aware of that Josh feels the judge is treating this interview like he's sort of confused about between fiction
Starting point is 00:22:45 and reality and just totally overwhelmed. I'm extremely shocked that Josh has even seen it. Do you know what I mean? Yeah, he's not that kind of guy, is he? I loved it in the 90s. Farkin out. Yeah, I, I, the bit where I think it was slightly before your time, but the bit where Grant Mitchell finds out the Phil's been sleeping with Sharon. Oh well the voice recorder. Oh yes inject it into my veins it's so good that episode. I would say Eastenders when it was in its peak
Starting point is 00:23:15 around that time was so much. Still good Robb, still in his pit. No it's still good but at that point that was when it was when you were in it when you were young and that pregnancy stuff and all that kind of stuff it's still. it. it was still. it's the the the the the the the the the the stuff. it's the stuff. It's the stuff. It's the the stuff. It's the the the the the the the the the the the th. It's still. It's still. It's still. It's still. It's still. It's still. It's still. It's still. It's still.

It's still. It's still. It's still. It's. Itthat point, that was when it was, when you were in it when you were younger, the pregnancy stuff and all that kind of stuff, it's still, you know, it's great, it went beyond, it went beyond soap, it just felt like something that everyone was watching and everyone spoke of that. I tell you something, obviously in October I've been there for 30 years, right? Wow, Jesus Christ. I mean, I had a break break, I've been affiliated with it for that long and all those times like you say the sort of the golden ages and we've had peaks and trot as every show does but I have to say that we've just won the soap award. Congratulations. The morale like everyone at work it's an amazing at the moment I feel like all the stories are really good. It's building up. Yeah it's becoming golden again it's really really good it's it's a a the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the golden. the the the the golden. the golden. It's the golden. It's the golden. It's the golden. It's the golden. It's the golden. It's the golden. It's the golden. It's the golden. It's the golden. It's the golden. It's the golden. 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 th. I. I up. It's becoming golden again. It's really,
Starting point is 00:24:06 really good. It's a lovely place to be. Being in Eastenders as a child and how, like whether you do, how you'd feel about your children acting, because you were seven, right, when you were first appeared in Eastenders? Ten. Ten. I'll tell you something, your Wikipedia is shit. He's falling apart. I knew about that. Oh, fuck off Rob. So you are 10. I. I. I 10. I 10. I 10. I 10. I 10. I 10. I 10. I t. I t. I t. I t. I t. I t. I t. I t. I t. I t. I te. I te. I te. I te. te. I tel. te. te. te. 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. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. th. th. don't worry about that. Oh fuck off Rob. So you were 10 so your daughter is basically would have already been in East Enders two years. Yeah, yeah. And have they expressed any interest in child acting? They both enjoy it and Eliza actually my eldest has done she just played Trunchball in her school production. Oh wow. She was brilliant she's really good at it. So I wouldn't mind her doing it, but to be honest, it's all very well, but auditions come through on my phone and I'm like, that's too much time off school and I just ignore it.
Starting point is 00:24:54 So I've said yes, I've said yes, but I'm not sure it'll ever come 'd have to see. But I do want to go to school. I missed a lot of school. Yeah, how did it work? Well, I loved, I loved my job. Yeah. But you, from 10 to 13, the rules were 40 days off a year. From 13 to 16, you could have 80 days off a year. And then 16 onward, it was a job. So I was kind of there doing really well and I just carried it on which is amazing. I'm th th th to th to th th to th to to to th to th to to to the to to th. I'm to to th. I'm the to to th. I'm to to to to to to to to to to to to thi. thi. I'm thi. I'm to to to to 13. to 13. to 13. to 13. to 13. to 13. to 13. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I the th. I th. I the the the th. I the the the the the the. I was. I was the. I was the. I'm thea. I'm thea. I'm thea. I'm toea. I love. I love. I love. I love. I love. I love. I love. I love. I love. I love. I love. I love. I love. I love on which is amazing I'm very lucky I've had a brilliant life but I'm I've missed out on a lot of learning which I think I'll probably do at a later stage because I do love learning so I want my kids to enjoy learning and go to school and get good grades and I do want to do that because I didn't. Also as well you've got you there's plenty of time in life for them to become actors where you only get this time once and I think it helps you develop as a person I mean it must be really difficult for you as well like because with
Starting point is 00:25:51 social media now for your kids and I don't have that like you were like so famous in this country yeah like a young age and that must be quite difficult because you know what the press is like, especially back then, you know, 20, 30 years ago, way more brutal. How, did that make you a stronger person or do you find it difficult? Does it help you, like, give them advice and stuff? Yeah, I mean, I have to be honest with you. I just think I've been very lucky. I've got a very thick skin, and I've oh isn't it marvelous that you're on the tele? Like there was none of that at all. Which for me I just went to work and it's always just been my job.
Starting point is 00:26:29 So I think going into it at 10 is actually better than getting a soap op or say at 17. Because you kind of want it and you get the ego and you get not saying everyone does, but do you know what I mean? So for me, I grew up with it. It's like being recognized. People say everyone's like, you go out and what's it like, and I said, I don't remember not doing that. You've been famous longer than you've been alive. So it's just, it's what it is, isn't it? Not longer you're alive, but longer than you're not famous.
Starting point is 00:26:58 Sorry. I'm sorry. I was thinking Rob fucking out and you did my Wikipedia's bad. You've got some really dodgy facts. You were Sonia two years before you were born, is that right? So philosophical, yeah. Yeah, I grew up really deep then. It's just like you've been no, but you've been famous longer than you've been not famous is what I'm trying to say, not not a lot of it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And does that, when you take your kids out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out their their their 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. 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. the the the the the the the the the the the the to. the to. the the to. the the the to. the to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. I. I. I. to, when you take your kids out in public, does it, um, that must be quite, because I'd say soap people get a lot more like, they get a different type of attention to people like me and Rob. I think they get a weird type of attention, because, and you're not going to believe this, there's some people that struggled to separate the character from the actor I'm not one of them myself I'm not absolutely not one of them myself he just struggles to separate the trumpet from the saxophone that's always
Starting point is 00:27:49 come on now come on I was panicking genuinely I'm gonna admit yeah we've interviewed I don't get I don't get I don't get star struck by when we interviewed Robbie Williams I didn't really give a s s s s s I'm this is this this this this this this this this this this this this this this this this this this this this this is this is this is this is this is the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the tr is is is is tr is tr true is true true true true true true true true true true true true true true true true true true the the the the the the the most starstruck I've been. He's panicking that. I'm panicking because this is... You're going to have me on the last leg, Josh, aren't you? Oh, yes, please. I would love to have you on the last leg. Yeah. So going back to what you said, when you go out, you're absolutely right, because you're inia's a nurse, she's never killed anyone,
Starting point is 00:28:28 she's the nice one. Everyone loves Sonia. Yeah. So they're like, oh, I, Sarnas, and they come over and they just talked to you. And it was when my kids were little, little, they didn't really notice. But Eliza, and I'm like, please don't be rude because he's part of my job Eliza. And she's like, no, I'm not happy with it. I'm really not, I just want to, you know, can they just not leave you alone? And she gets kind of a kid. Yeah, they get it. I get it. I get it. I get it. And I hate it. You must get it. You must. you. You must. You must. You must. I hate it. I hate it. I hate it. I hate it. I. I. I. I hate it. I. 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 like hello, you know, and they shit themselves. So please don't say a picture of me. I now, just if they're doing it, I ignore it. If it's just me, but if it's with the kids, I have to say something because I've got photos of my children. Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely.

The thing is, because you've got your, as a parent, you're like, these are the rules but you're funny, right? You're unnaturally, even when you said then, what are stupid... 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 be, at to, at, at to, at, at a, at, at a, at a, at, to, to to to to to me, to me, to me, to me, to, to me, to, to..

Starting point is 00:29:51 Oh, I can see. I do make them laugh, but I think if you're with me every day, I'm a bit annoying. They do, listen with Eliza, Eliza's very much like me so he clash, when we argue and stuff she gives as good as she, I say to her you're gonna be a barrister, you've got to be a barrister, please be a barrister because she'll tell me that is a mug and I'll believe her by the end of it. Yeah, there'll be a pint glass. Yeah there'll be a pint of glass. In 10 minutes I'm like I'm really sorry it is a mug,. Yeah. It's just unbelievably persuasive. Do they get on because this is what, six year gap? Yeah, six nearly seven. They do.
Starting point is 00:30:30 They get on a lot more. I think probably about 18 months ago there was a real clash where Eliza wanted to be on her own and her hormones started flowing and all of that. Eliza's kind of thrown now. She's like a little lady tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha thia thia thia thia thia thia thia's kind of thrilled that now and she's like a little lady already at 12 and she loves her sister. They spend quite a lot of part, time apart now. Yeah. But when they are together and I try and get them together, I'm like, come on, let's play a board game, let's play guess who, we're big board gamers, you know, I like to be to be together. Elizizer now now now now now now now now now now now now now now now now now now now now now now now now now now now now now now now to to to to to to to to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be together.

Starting point is 00:31:06 Or I do, Alexa, talk to kids' room. Get downstairs, I've not seen you for two hours. Do you, do you have a situation now where you're thinking, right, soon I'm making decisions on her going out, her going like, well, not only she's 12, but like alcohol or like parties and all that kind of stuff is not a million miles away. It's not a million miles away. So she sent me a voice note yesterday, so she's just started coming out of school because now she has the mobile. Yeah. Obviously she can contact myself or my nanny or Mark or whatever. And my little one is swimming on a Wednesday night. So she goes swimming from 5, 530 to 6.
Starting point is 00:31:51 Eliza comes out of school at 5. So yesterday she was like, I'm just, I'd like to pop into town with a couple of friends and then you know Laura can pick me up on the way home. And I was like, I don't know and I was like okay that's fair she's bored stiff at a swimming pool baking hot yeah wait a day at school that's fine I get a voice note hi mommy just to let you know I had some more Latin prep finishing it off and we're just having a Starbucks and I was just like she's like a 30 year old oh she's a good girl she's a good girl although She's a good girl. Although when she got home, I'd done spaghetti and meatballs last night, and trust me, my kids eat well, and she ate like half of her favorite dinner. I was like, you're sure you just had a drink?
Starting point is 00:32:33 I bet she smashed down a couple of cakes. She didn't eat all her dinner when she got in. Yeah, she's done you there. Yeah, she's absolutely done you. Your mom hates it when you leave six half-full glasses on your nightstand. It's a good thing mom lives on the other side of the country. And it's an even better thing that you can get six IKEA 365 plus glasses for just $9.99. So go ahead. You can afford to hoard because IKEA is priced for student life.
Starting point is 00:32:59 Shop everything you need for back to school at IKEA today. Um, what did you think of Sid Owen's single, Good Thing Going in the year 2000? What a random belief that was. A girl you got a good thing going. It's a good song, isn't it? It's so good. Oh, I couldn't believe it was the year 2000. Sorry, I just thought, God,
Starting point is 00:33:25 Sid Owen wrote a single, I wonder what she thought about that. Do you remember it? I've done, I've done a lot of, I've done, I've done, I've done, I've done, pep-things.

Starting point is 00:33:52 What do you think about that? Do you think I look older than you, younger than you? What you're playing the clarinet on screen at the age of 10. Do you know what I mean? So... I'm joking, Rob. I'm too excited.
Starting point is 00:34:14 I'm too excited. You know, sometimes, I'll tell you what it's like, you know when you're in the pub with two people, and you're having a nice time, but you want to talk to the other one a little bit more and everyone keeps an interrupting. That's all. That's all it is. Oh, superb. No, it is strange, isn't it? Rob, I had a fantastic birthday.

Where's Kalauni? In Ireland? And we just wanted, we've never been away from more than one night on our own without the children. So we went away and it's all the fiddly-diddly pubs right, amazing. You know, you're out, a proper lovely weekend together. Right, so there was this lady, beautiful girl with a guitar in this pub, her voice, her voice, she was doing

Mark I don't the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the same the same the the same the same the same the same the same the same the man man man man man man man man man man man man man man man man man man man man man man man man man man man man man man man man man man the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the 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 is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th. th. th. I was th. th. the are the can can can. That's unbelievable. How are we married to Mark? And I don't even like a long as more of a set. Such a bad about the minefowler. Such a good guy. Oh well that's really raised the stakes isn't it? Going back to the Starbucks thing. If she's buying stuff, has she got pocket money or how is she operating at 12 and she's getting to school on a bus or what's going on for that independence? No, she, so I'll drop her to school, Mark will drop it to school
Starting point is 00:36:08 or I have child care that drops her. And is that because you're in a village is that there's not much transport links kind of thing? There's not a lot of transport about and also there is a school bus but don't want to be a to the the the the. to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to told. told. told. told. told. to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to told. to their their their their their their their their their their. the school. the school bu. their the school bu. their the school but. their their their the school. their their their their to to to to lot that goes on on those buses, you know what I mean? Things get organized, a lot gets talked about. I think that's where the dodgy stuff can either happen or be organized. I don't want to the... Do you know what, when I used to come home from school, the walk home or the bus was where it all kicked off after school, and if you're getting caught up in trouble. I remember walking home from school and that this so a naughty boy had stole a bottle of
Starting point is 00:36:50 wine from like there was a PTA meeting that night so he was like I can't get a drunk a bit of wine in the woodteacher has to write how you did and stuff like that and you have to go and see you. But I've got to put on a report for a week and I remember to tell him my mom I was so ashamed. Was it difficult? Like did you get, not have that chance to rebel as much as I needed to and stuff and stuff and stuff and stuff and stuff, and stuff, and stuff, and stuff, and stuff, and stuff, and stuff, and stuff, and stuff, and stuff, and stuff, and stuff, and stuff, and stuff, and stuff, and stuff, and stuff, and stuff, and stuff, and stuff, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to to to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, I to, to, to, to, to, to, to to they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, theyrue, they, to, to, to, to, to, to, to to, to tell you something, I think I did quite well with it, if I'm honest. I think I rebelled as much as I needed to and got away with it, so I did quite well. No social media back then was it? Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:37:35 Yeah. You can't do it now. The kids now at work are amazing. You know that's 14, 15, 6, all they talk about meditation, yoga and all they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're their, they're, their, their, th, th and th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th, th, I'm, thi, thi, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I tho, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, thi, tho, tho, tho, tho, thoooooo, thoooooooo, thoooooooo, and thooo, and tho, and tho, and tha, and 156, all they talk about is meditation yoga and going to the gym. Is it? It's incredible. It's incredible. That generation... It's amazing. Honestly, they're absolutely brilliant. They're so professional, they're so great. Oh, they're right like us. We were in China White still four o'clock in the morning. Yeah, well my my wife, it was friend with Gemma who was in East Enda. Yeah, yeah. So she she was that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that was was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's their their their their their.

Starting point is 00:38:08 That would be the great first question, Josh to get win Natalie over. Sorry. That's great though. No, I'm enjoying though. You're rebuilding the rapport. Yeah. It's good. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:19 Do you think Nick Cotton killed any more logic they were sorry here's a question for you because I've just do you ever know when we're at a sort of our age is there any conversation in your house about another one yeah do you know what my son was being very cute this morning and I the thought entered my head and then I thought fuck no no no there is occasional chat about another one I one I the the that the tho. I'm not I'm a there there there there there there there there there the there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there the there there there the there there there there there there the there there there there there there there there there there there there the there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th the the thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi there they they they thought entered my head and then I thought fuck no no there is occasional chat about another one I think because we're as you say the age things interesting because you're basically then 60 when your children have grown up so that's that's a long way off do you you know what I mean? I mean I know Al Pacino's
Starting point is 00:39:06 just started a kid at 83. I think we're all young enough to have another kid. I know yeah yeah I think 60s fine. Rob I'm just trying to go. Rob I'm working on my excuses Rob. Really it's only the first five years are really mental and once they're in school it gets easier and easy and there are mental challenges with phones and they're th. th. th. th. th. that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that's that's the the the the that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's 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 th are tho. I ty. I's try. I's te. I's te. I's the. I's the. I's the. I's th and all that that will always be a thing but the actual tiring graft of it all is a sort of four five year window. I think if I could have an 18 month old now that slept that slept I'd love that. But the the thought of Rose being pregnant for nine months with two kids is that's gonna be really tough for her. if it's the thin'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 ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti. I thi. I'll thi. I'll thi. I'll thi. I'll the actual the actual the actual the actual the actual ti. I ti. I ti. I ti. I ti. I ti. I ti. I ti. I ti. I ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ti. ti. ti. ti. ti. ti. ti. ti. ti. t kids is that's going to be really tough for her. If it's twins, I'd fucking love if it was twins, it'd be so good for a podcast. Please, please. Just think of the content. We could go and go up another level I think.
Starting point is 00:39:58 We'd go worldwide. If you had twins your life would be a fucking mess and I would want to hear about it 24-7 yeah, I mean, I'd tune in now, but I'll be tuning in much more. Yeah, I'll tell you what you'd be hearing about, Rob. My life as a, uh, as a divorced man. Great. Um, we haven't got enough bedrooms either. Um, we haven't got enough bedrooms either. coming out with excuses this chance do you have the chat by do you have the the only reason I was asking no because obviously this is a kid pop pop do you have that chat then I are about a year ago hmm maybe 18 months ago I was genuinely I was talking about it a lot thinking about it a lot
Starting point is 00:40:38 I can't like I didn't do that seriously I feel now I'm out like you said I'm out the woods I can have I can have a lay in I I can I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I that I that I that I the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th I can I can I can I can I can I can I can I can I can I can I can have I can have I can't I can't I can have I can have I can have I can can have I can can can have I can can can have I can can have I can have I can't have I can't have I can't have I can't have I can't have I can't have I can can can can can can can can can can can can can can can can can can can the the th I can I can I can I can I can I can I can I can I can I can I can I can I can I can I can I can I can I can I can I can I can I can I can I can I can I can I can I can I can I can't I can't I can't I can't I can't th th th th th th th th th th thin I th th th th th thin I can't have th th th th th th th th th th Seriously, I feel now I'm out like you said I'm out of the woods. I can have a laying, I get up, they'll get a bowl of cereal, come and say hello, you know what I mean? It's different now and then I've got nephew, so my niece and nephew, they're in their 30s so they've just had children. So I've got great nieces and nephews that I babysit for, that I look after. Like the Nan, but we're all very, very, very close family. So I've got all of that and they're fucking hard work. I thought you could say they're lovely and cute and I get it from them. But they're wonderful. When they go home I'm like oh it is hard work 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 from them but they're wonderful they're wonderful but when they go home I'm like oh it is hard work they're brilliant but I just think I
Starting point is 00:41:29 could not do that age anymore. My brother's got like a three month old and she's brilliant and she's sleeps and she's the cutest most well-behaved baby I've ever seen but even when they're sleeping and well behave they're constantly just holding the thing that's making noise and they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they they they they they'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 they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they're they they're th I I th I th th thi thi ttttttttttttttttttttoo ttttttttttttttttry th thoooo they're they're they're they're they're they're sleeping and well behaved, they are constantly just holding the thing that's making noise and you can see them they're like, you know, it's just so unrelenting. Yeah, absolutely, no break. But I think like, you know, we've spoken about with four and we see little cute babies and stuff, but it's like what you're doing is you're chasing for that hit of a cute little young that sort of, but it's the same way as people that still live in their unitown and go out to Unitown, you're trying to long for a moment in time that's past. And if you constantly keep looking backwards, you'll never appreciate what's happening now. You don't appreciate now. And I think I have had those times, I'm sure I'll have them again, but you know when you feel your heart hurts where they're growing up..'re absolutely heartbroken. The pain of sick,
Starting point is 00:42:25 I've had that pain where I think I can't believe that they're not little anymore and the way they're talking and the stages have gone, that heartbreak, but now, I don't know what's happened, I think, well, whatever, but I've just gone now, no, forget all that, let's enjoy all the different stages now.. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, I've that, I've th.

Going shopping with a lion's up. Yeah, yeah. Doing, you know, nice, fantastic, me and Joni now. You can get on a train, you don't need anything. You can just go out, go and get lunch somewhere. They're not fussy, you know, it's great.
Starting point is 00:42:55 And you're not like neglecting that by going, yesterday we're coming back from a, uh, uh, uh, my daughter did a recorder thingy and my, Lou took my other daughter in another car and I'll just with her.

You're too popular, you're too busy, trust me. You couldn't do it at the moment.
Starting point is 00:47:33 So that's what I was going to ask you, you know, we've been trying trying trying trying try, you're try, to to 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 get to get to get to get to get to get to get you're 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 get to get to get to get in and your child care around that? Well, I'm just extremely lucky that I kiss my child Niners' feet. I'm so sorry. I mean, it's the worst job in the world. Because then she's got to organize her life. I get it on a Thursday evening. So tonight, for next week? For Monday morning? Oh my God. Yeah. And then I'll just sit work to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to th. th. th. th. th. th th th th th thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi the thi thi thi thi thi thi their their their their their their it's their it's their it's their it's their 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 their it's their it's their their their their their their their their their their their thi. to to to to try. try. try. today. try. today. try. today. tho. tho. their their their their the for Monday morning. Oh my God. Yeah. And then I'll just sit, work it all out, see if Mark's got any time off, see what he's doing, he's super busy at the moment, go for everything. You know what it's like. I mean I've looked at a calendar this morning and I'm like oh my god she's got an insect day before that's a summer holidays. What's going on? What's happening? We've just had every bank holiday off from May.
Starting point is 00:48:29 We don't need another one. I've never known my kids to have so many days off. Seriously. Of course, Thursday nights you get the... And how many days you in normally? Again, completely dependent. I've got kind of a little provisional schedule, but it gives you no times and it is very like it can easily change. Could it be zero? Just because you're not in the same? Could be zero? Could be zero? Could be one day,
Starting point is 00:48:47 two days, it could be six days. Can I ask one more question? We always end on this? Yeah. Which do you think was the better moment when Frank hit Tiffany in the car? Yeah? Or when Kat shouted out? Yes I am, to Zoe saying you're not my mom. I'm going to go for the slate of my moment. Yeah, that's the big. You ain't my mother. Yes, oh my god, I get goosebumps thinking about that. Oh, what a moment. Josh, would you like...
Starting point is 00:49:19 That's not what we always end on. No, do you want to answer? Yes. If you could say one thing that your that your that your that your that your that your that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that you could say one thing that your partner does as a parent that is blows your mind, shows you that you know, that is parenting I could never do, that's incredible, what would that be? And one thing that annoys them, annoys you, you know this, is his ability to remain calm because my tolerance levels aren't great and he's fantastic. It remains calm in all situations when I want to smash the place up, you know, go mad. He's brilliant and he's very, very calm in any situation and he makes, yeah, the house a very lovely
Starting point is 00:50:02 place. But the downside of that is he's so late back, we can all be going out somewhere, we're all ready in the car, and then he's still sort of strolled around getting bits and pieces so we can be late for things, and I don't do late. No. Right. Yes.
Starting point is 00:50:19 Okay. Very good. That's pretty. thii. th. That's it. Time but it's pretty good actually. It's pretty happy functional family Natalie. We are. We really are.

No, but I'd be interested in that. We can say, what we should have asked was, looking back on your performance of giving birth, once you, once you actually gave birth, what did you do right and wrong? Have you got a number, Michael? We'll get it next time, don't you worry. Thank you. Thank you Natalie, we love you. See you later. Bye.
