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 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.

You've got to go through the gunge, then you've got to defeat the man dressed as a pirate,
Starting point is 00:01:37 and then you've got to collect the tokens. Yeah, that felt like a great energy like it was a birthday party or a family event and they went oh while we're all here let's do this. I'm gonna tell you Rob. Go on. Oh wow do you know what fair play to Tanya. Tanya. Tanya. Tanya. tanya. tanya is a sort of posh Tanya in it. Her PS is fucking incredible. P.S. I've scheduled sending this for 5 a.m. on a Monday morning to be top of the inbox. And it worked. Fucking brilliant. She's on fire, Tanya. But I'm going to
Starting point is 00:02:15 tell you now, I think where she is is your idea of hell. Oh, okay is she, she is at Tottenham Hotspur's stadium teaching children maths at 6 a.m. on a Monday. No, she's not Rob, what she is doing? This is Dylan, Amelia, Jackson, Mayor, Seth, Nathan, Lottie and Missy, age 96. They are posh. to 4144 months. This is recorded at our 12th NCT Holiday Get Together.
Starting point is 00:02:48 Fucking L-Tania. Having met 13 years ago when we were pregnant with our firsts. I know this sounds like hell Rob. She's nailed it as well. At least we know each other. You know what we like we don't like. But it's genuinely the best week of our year. Josh you'd love it. I don't know. Eight adults, eight kids, a big villa and a lot of food, drink and laughter. Yeah? I thought they were going to be camping, so the villa I'm on board with. We are all big fans of the show. Yes, the kids too. Thanks for all the last keeping sexy and relatable. Laura and Alex, Vic and Al, Tanya and James, Karen and Nish. Right, I'm going to say to say to say to say to say to say to say to say to say to say the the the the same. I'm going the same. I'm going the same. I'm going their. I'm going their. I'm going their. I'm going their. I'm going their. I'm their. I'm their. I'm going. I'm going their. I'm their. I'm their. I'm their. I their. I they they they they they they're they're they're they're they. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I their. I their. I their. I their. I their. I their. I their. I their. 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 th say something here, and I don't want to cause ruptions in what looks like a quite a wholesome event. There is no way all eight adults like each other. Forget the kids.
Starting point is 00:03:31 There is no way. I get the feeling Tanya may get on with everyone. I get the feeling Tanya may get on with Tanya, but there may be other infighting in there. Give me the names again, I'm gonna predict you don't like each other. Okay. Laura and Alex, what do you think of Laura and Alex? Laura works in finance, Laura works in H.R., a jail, they're no trouble.
Starting point is 00:03:53 Vic and Al, I'm presuming Vic's the woman. Vic and Al, I'm presuming Vic's the woman. Vic and Al, I think they're the ones that Lauren Alex don't mind but won't say can they not come because they don't want to call disruptions. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because Vic and thou are a bit too wacky for me, yep, and all the others. Then you've got to tani and James. They're from money I think Tanya knows how to make money because she worked out how to email at 5M on a Monday morning. Either way I think they're weighed in. Tanya runs a hedge fund. Yeah yeah 100 percent and do you know what they do they go? We'll just book the villa just bring some drinks. Yeah. And then Laura and Alex go Vic and now, and Alit's go Vic and now now and they's go. Vic and to to to to to to they and they's go, Vic and they's go, Vic and their, Vic, Vic, Vic, Vic, Vic, Vic, Vic, Vic, Vic, Vic, Vic, Vic, Vic, Vic, Vic, Vic, Vic, Vic, Vic, Vic, Vic, Vic, Vic, Vic, Vic, Vic, Vic, Vic, Vic, Vic, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, they're, they're, they're, they're, they're, they're, they're, they're, they're, they, they, they, I I I I I, I I, I, I, I, I I, I I, I I I, I, I, I I I, I they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're thi, I thi, thin, they're thin, thin, thin, thi. thi, thi. Because of the name, do I mean, it's tough to be a Karen out there, so she's probably just happy for any invite at the moment due to the terrible PR the Karen's again. Same with
Starting point is 00:04:52 the name Nish in the last few years. Oh, Nish, not for me, she's a Karen, they're swerve it. They've even sent in a lovely picture of their kids by the lake. And I've absolutely shattled all over their week. Yeah, but I'm not gonna. Maybe I'm wrong, but that's my gut. That's what my gut's telling me. Well, she said you'd hate it. was predictable with which emails he chose, Rob was predictable with this reaction, and I was there as well.
Starting point is 00:05:26 No, but what I've done is I've not just gone, that wouldn't be my cup of tea, I've gone through the names of all the people attended and told Tanya why I think they don't like it, which things a bit much. She's added go. Nish. Dirty. Nish and Vic. Absolutely. Fuck bastard. Nish and Vic. But no, I'm glad you have a nice time. And do you know what it sounded like they were having fun? So maybe, because you know, we've got friends that we get on with the parents and all the kids get on and there genuinely is no ruptions either way. However, finding that with four couples is impressive but I'm not saying it's impossible. But that's just my gut instinct on it Josh but I'm glad you've had a great time, Tanya. Thank you for sending that in. Have a great holiday. We're going away with two couples this weekend Rob. Yeah. So this is recorded before
Starting point is 00:06:13 before Father's Day Rob. Right, okay. But we're in separate, it's like a posh cabin sort of thing, isn't it? Yeah, cabins, yeah, yeah. Three separate cabins, yeah. We're not all in one. No, that's good. I think that's very healthy. The euro starts on Friday, roll. Oh, yes, please.
Starting point is 00:06:40 that's going on the telly, please tell me that's going on the telly. I'm watching. I'm at the stage of my life now, but if they're all in one cabin having a laugh, I'd say, well if you're all going to watch it and you don't on the tell you'll sit in the other cabin until 10 o'clock then I'll come back. Yeah, yeah, of course. And I'm willing to the the the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm thin thin thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' tho' tho' tho' tho' that' that's thee thee tho' that's that's that's tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' tho tho tho tho tho tho tho thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' tel tel tel tel tell. I'll tell. I'll tell. I'll tell-tell-tell-tell-tell-tell-tell-tell'-tell' they're something like that. It's holiday, it's holiday, holiday rules, Josh. Yeah, exactly. Do you what I'm doing for Father's Day? Well that's it, his father's day on the Sunday as well, Rob. What are you doing? Are you coming home, will you stand? Well, we'll still be there. In the morning
Starting point is 00:07:27 and then Lou's taking the kids to her dad's to see her dad in the morning and then I'll see the kids in the afternoon so. Well that may not happen and I get cancelled last minute but that's the plan. Also, what do you think about this, Josh? Lou said backwards cap on me. What did you say about it? She likes me wearing a backwards cap, and this is a caveat, on holiday. I think you look like you're going undercover in a school to try and find some teenagers that are. What like Channing Tatum in, was it called? Yeah, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:07:58 With Jonah Hill. Yeah, 40nd Street. No, it was a fucking how old are we? 21 jobs show up. that. Miracle with 34th Street, yeah, I know the one. America is 34th Street. But yeah, Lou's it's quite like the backwards cat on holiday. I didn't know Lou was a pedophile, fair enough. Wow, do you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:08:24 Got to do to keep her interested. And it's about 4th Street, 40 seconds, right? 21 Chagg Street. Email in, if you've got any stories about getting the names of things mixed up. I mean, really? Is that a good one? Yeah, go on. It's worth a good play. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's worth a good play of grand shaggers to once I called Shorthan Redemption the Shorshank Exception. I liked it that's a bit of fun that. Do you know what it's a bit
Starting point is 00:08:52 of bloody fun? Exactly. Michael if you do email those things if you could chettle them for 5 a.m. on Monday mornings at the top of the inbox. Oh poor Michael's gonna have a horrible Monday. Michael I love that. the point now. 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 to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the their. their. their. their. their. their cha.

I suppose the point now is you've got to work out at what point on a Monday morning Michael's checking the inbox and get a minute because now 5 a.m. Go 515. Really you should go 515 and then someone's gonna go. How late can you go? It's a game of kind of brinkmanship. How late can you go. Right, well, should we introduce our episode? This is Janine Haruni.
Starting point is 00:09:25 You will find that out at the start because we ask her. This is Janine Haruni. It's a good one. Well, we speak about Doomsday Preppers quite a lot. Talk about her stand-up career and the fact that her husband does a tour support and we ask quite a lot on early questions about New York. Because we're a couple of about you, I've got a backwards cap. I don't think a nerd has a backwards cap, mate. No, sorry. They're too busy studying to change her hat. I'm surprised you didn't ask her whether she'd ever been to 34th Street or 40 Second Street. You're having up the old 21st street. Janine, please excuse me, you pronounce Haryoni or horoni? Like peroni. It's Haroni. Haroni. Like Peroni. Perfect.
Starting point is 00:10:05 Yeah, yeah. That's where you live being in London using Peroni as an example. In America I used to say Herony like Bologna. And I tried that here and they were like, I don't know either of those. Bologna. Well, welcome to the podcast. Jureen.
Starting point is 00:10:21 Oh, oh no. I'm Peroni by it. Janine Heroni. How are you, Janine? I'm good. How are you, Rame? Great. Josh, you're all right? Yeah, I'm good. I'm good.
Starting point is 00:10:34 You're very busy. You're in Dubai on tour, or is it one of the circuit gigs out there? I'm on tour. I'm doing, I'm doing, tour, tour, tour, to to tour, to to tour, to to tour, to to to, to to to, to to to to to to to to to, to to, to to to to to to, to, too, 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, too, here. Honestly, this was the perfect time because I'm not, I've got nine months son at home. So doing anything in the same house as a baby is a ticking time bum. Well, you've left your son for, what, is it 48 hours or whatever? Yeah, yeah. How much do you check in or are you enjoying the time away? Zero.
Starting point is 00:11:02 Yeah, no, is that bad? I just need a thin thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii. I that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's. I took in zero times. Yeah, no, is that bad? I just I need a break, I think. Yeah, no, I think that's fine. I think when they get older and they ask to speak to you, but at this age, they don't know what's going on, they're just sleeping and eating. I'm not talking to him when I'm at workthat age, at nine months when you go away at work for a couple of days and you get that line, it's outrageous, isn't it? You know what's crazy? I just toured in America and my parents looked after Miles, my son's called Miles while we were away and my husband was opening for me. So we would be with my parents for the week, then on a weekend me and my husband would fly to two or three different cities and leave our baby. It was like we were just going away on little city breaks every weekend. It felt like we were cheating. Like it felt like we were cheating at parenting. Were your parents totally aware of your schedule or could you say have done one extra
Starting point is 00:11:58 weekend and gone just doing Cincinnati and blah blah blah and then... Well we did stay for an extra night because it was my husband's birthday I always forget this poor man's birthday I booked a show in Boston on his birthday and then had to style it out. And they made him work. Yeah I was like no I planned it so that wea I planned it so that we could stay an extra night in Boston and thank God actually Boston is a super cool city and we had a really nice time. Yeah that is a good one to be in Boston. You could have been in some action shit. Yeah, it's really cool, isn't it? Yeah, yeah, exactly. Yeah, like Raleigh, North Carolina. That was not. That's the thing. You completely guilt free as a couple if you're both working. Exactly. Exactly. If you just went to America drop your kid your the the their th you. 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. It. It. It. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It. It's. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It's. It.

It's really. It's really. It's really. It's really. It's really. It's really. It's really. It's really. It's really. America for three weeks. You'd be like got a fucking parent's this but when you are officially doing that as work, it's the ultimate getaway.
Starting point is 00:12:48 And I mean work is an hour and a half a night. We had so much free time. It was crazy. And we had also because my parents don't get to see miles very often because they don't like traveling too much so so it's only whenever we come over, they get to see him. They were just lapping it up. And my mom was a maternity nurse when she was working. So your child's returned to you actually sleeping better kind of rhythms. Genuinely, genuinely, they sleep trained him while we were away, and now he sleeps through the night. Oh my god. It was unbelievable. It is the first the first the first, the first, the first, the first, the first, the first, the first, th. It's, th. It's, th. It's, th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thoom. thoomom. thoomom. thoom. thoom. thoom. thoom. So, th. So, th. So, th. So, th. So, th. So, th.

So is this the first grandchild of theirs or of their other other?
Starting point is 00:13:25 No, it's the third, but it's the first grandson. So he does get, I think. Right, a little bit special treatment. Yeah, he gets preferential treatment, yeah. Can I ask what it's like having your husband open for you? I know this isn't what you not do this bit like is there ever is there any situation going on there's one joke that he has that's about me that's very funny but I've asked him not to do it and is it acknowledged that he's your husband when he's on
Starting point is 00:13:59 they know yeah I introduce him I come on introduce him as my husband yeah honestly it's great the only way he could ever mess my show up is if is is the the th is th is th is the the th is the th is th is the th is the the th. the th. th. the the the the the th. the th. the the the the the th. the the the the the th. the th. the the. I the. there's there's there's there is. there is. there is a there is a there is a there's there's there's there's there's there is. there is. there is. there is. there is. there is. there is. the the the the there is. the the the the the the th.

The only way he could ever mess my show up is if he was way, way funnier than me. So I'm like, have a good one, have a bad one, just don't have an amazing one. He's done that a couple of times, and then I'm like, come on, man. There's two ways to be sacked. to be to be to be to be sa. to be sa. to be sa. to be sa. to be sa. to be sa. to be sa. to be sa. tha. tha. tha. thi. thi. tho, tho, tho, tho, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thei. thei. thei. th. thei. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. tha. tha. to. to. toeea. toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. tha.acked as a support act. There's two ways to be sacked. One is being too good, because it's hard to follow, or the other one is if they're too shit,
Starting point is 00:14:28 or don't listen, if you say don't do crowd work, because I want to talk to them, and then they go out and do crowd weight, you know, we're very good to go out. I'm like I've written the jokes. I want to come out, do the show. There's a bit of crowd work in, but I don't, I never do it at the top because I'm always just a little too nervous to deviate. That works really well then. Really well, thankfully, yeah. And what was the joke that you had to take out? I'm not tell. I'm like, I'm not telling not the not the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the to to to to to to to their to to to tel. I'm not tel. I'm not tel. I'm not tel. I'm not to tel. I'm not to to to to to to to to to to to to to to told. I'm not told. I'm not told. I'm not told. I'm not told. I'm not told. I'm not told. I'm not told. I'm not to. I'm not to. I'm not to. I'm not tel. I'm not te. I'm. I'm. I'm. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. I'm. to. to. I'm like, I don't want people to know this. And he's like, they don't know if it's real. I'm like, oh, it's real. Well, especially if you've got to come on after,
Starting point is 00:15:10 because you sort of have to address it, like a right or reply almost. But is he allowed to do that routine, thrown. Is he allowed to me to say and so I've had to tweak them or stop doing them. That's fair enough. I think that's only fair. Why have your partners said you can't say certain jokes? No, but I think I'm, I don't do that much about our relationships. I don't, it's not a situation which has arisen if that makes sense. I've had people ask me to tweaks. I used to do a routine about some of my cousins saying that they was in prison and my mom was like, can you not say that? Because auntie might get out. I'm like, well, it's true. Right, wow. What was he in prison for? Oh, all sorts. I mean, I don't need to go through the full charge list. It was just like a video footage of me and my family growing up and I was like, th like, th like, th like, th like, th like, th like, th like, th, th, th, th, th, th like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, th like, thi, th like, thi, thi, to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to 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 te, thea, thea, thea, thea, thea, thea, thea, the thea, their their to little kid. That's very funny. But I think it's different though if you are in the public eye or especially at your show you've got to go on.
Starting point is 00:16:11 If someone talks about your paul history and then you're on stage next, it's like you've got to address it almost and then it's just an awkward way to start. He used to do this bit where he tellain't 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 thinks I wanked the dog off. And so I had to like come on and be like, I don't wank the dog off. I suck them off. No cleanup. You've both got similar kind of evenings then and stuff. So you're both around a lot in the day and then, how do you work that? Well, Andrew does, he mo- his main job is he directs.
Starting point is 00:16:44 So he does, actually recently he started directing specials, so he is gone in the night. So we have an amazing friend of ours who used to be a nanny. She's also a comic. Basically I just employ comics. Yeah. It's a real laugh being your baby. It must be an absolute hoot. You know what, he, because I did Edinburgh when I was nine months pregnant with him. So I think because of that he laughed so much because I think he just heard laughter so much while he was in the womb. Oh he wasn't at my Edinburgh. I did Rose was pregnant when you was in Edinburgh at Rocheon. So you did Edinburgh at nine months. So was there a chance you were going to give birth
Starting point is 00:17:27 in Edinburgh? Yeah, yeah, we had to register at like the Royal Infirmary. It was so stupid. I don't know what we were thinking. How soon after did you give birth then? A week? A week. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:40 Do you want to hear something crazy? My agent, when we were talking about whether or not I should do it, she's given birth to two kids in her house with no medication. One of them, her midwife, didn't even get there in time. She just gave birth on the toilet. She's like, birth is easy. You know, she has no concept of how afraid I was. And she was went into labor, you can always just get on a train and go down to London I was like what? I don't know anything about giving birth
Starting point is 00:18:10 But I'm sure we shouldn't involve the British rail. Yeah, yeah, I know the moment as well Avanie West Coast the kid would be about four months by the time you got there Because Romish he had his kid in Edinburgh, didn't he? His third kid. Now looking at his career is the most rummish thing ever, isn't it? Yeah, yeah, the signs were there, weren't they? He did the gig? And then... He did the gig? He did the gig?
Starting point is 00:18:32 Was his wife in Edinburgh with him or was she? Yeah, yeah. She told him to go can do that. You can do that on the NHS. It's amazing. You just tell them. Yeah, and they they try and convince you otherwise. All these midwives were like, are you afraid? Do you want to go to like a class to help elite? I was like, no, I just don't want to do it. Just get it out. I don't have to do th th th th th th th th th to go 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. I th. I th. th. th. thr- I thr- I the. the. thr- I th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the. the. the. they they they they they they they they they're they they they they they're they they they they they they they they they they they they they try. It was amazing. I think that's a really, you know, positive thing to hear because you can, there is a lot of, you have to do this, you have to do this, a stigma attached to everything. So it's good to hear you kind of just say that. Have you, do you know many people that have done that? I had one friend, it wasn't elective.the C-section the baby had moved and she was like let's still just do it yeah
Starting point is 00:19:29 and I mean a C-section isn't easy the recovery is really painful it's not a laugh is it no it's if someone told you that they had surgery while they were awake abdominal surgery while they were awake on a battlefield do you think that was the most badass thing you'd ever heard? Yeah. But when women do it, they're like, well you just pop that baby out the sunroof. It's like yeah of a car that doesn't have a sunroof. Yeah, I've got a cut in a sunroof to get the baby out. Well that's the thing is the thing, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, the thi, thi, the the the the thing, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, they, like, like, they, they, like, they, they, they, like, 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, theyto it as well and there's also like a weird like showing off thing of like you know when you give birth naturally and I hit no birth and it was the most magical experience and I've felt a one with my body and nature and I'm like okay well fair enough if you like that but no
Starting point is 00:20:15 because like really then don't ever have a painkiller ever again if you really want to experience nature there's drugs for a reason. Yeah exactly. Also I have I have th a th a th a th a th a th a 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 there there there's there's there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there th. there th. there's there. there. there. there. there. there.

I'm the. have given birth to zero children at that point and this doctor had done it I mean 50 times that day so I trust him more than I trust me. Yeah. And so many things can go wrong. Honestly if you ask doctors I think it's something like 90% of doctors and their partners have C-sections because they know all the things that can go wrong from a natural birth, you know. And when I heard that, that's when I thought I was going to do. Yeah. Also, I do think if you are busy, and I don't know if this is, I'm going to get canceled for this, but when you're all busy, it's quite nice to go, 13th is coming out. So yeah, if we get their their th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, I I I th, th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. thirty, thi, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's that's that's that's that's, that's that's th.

That, my mom on the 50, you cancel work for it because you know especially you know if you're trying to work and put in schedule stuff and
Starting point is 00:21:07 yourself employed and things like that if you can manage that rather than a baby just coming out in the middle of like a mad work period it's like middle of Edinburgh. What would have happened if it's come early during Edinburgh? I wouldn't have to the show I don't know I th I mean I wouldn't th. th. th. th. I wouldn't th. I wouldn't th. I wouldn't th. I wouldn't th. I wouldn't th. I wouldn't th. I wouldn't th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. to to the. to to to to to to to to the to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to 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 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. I don't know. Oh no I meant C-section wise I didn't mean Edinburgh-wise. Oh I see I mean they said they they didn't know it was kind of dependent on if there were any doctors available because obviously they have to prioritize emergency C-sections so if you go into labor they say that you still can have a C-section but some people have really quick labors so I was really terrified that that that was going 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 thoe the the. Yeah the s s s s sa. Yeah the they. their their their their. their. their. their. their. their. their. I their. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was their. I was their. I was they. I was they. I was they. I's they. I's they. I's the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the. I's the. I's the. I'm te. thean. thean. I'm theean. thean. theean. I'm thean. I'm the thean. I's terrified that that was going to happen. Yeah, because if it is a quick one, there's no point cutting you open, you're chasing it out. Yeah, yeah. And so it's already half out. It's like, pulling it back through the other
Starting point is 00:21:53 accident. It's like, it's not like a tug of wall. I know, because in my show I asked women, you know, I talked those two days laborers, and they said, you know what, the baby's in distress, we're going to have to do an emergency c-section. And when they got in there, the baby's head had already started coming out, so they had to pull him back. No. No.
Starting point is 00:22:15 . . Oh my God. It's a mess. I recommend getting a C-section, an elective C-section, to everyone. I probably won't do it. It's got to be an easier way to have a child, isn't there? They're having to carry it for nine months in a belly with all the technology. Is it particularly bad with humans or like animals? Yeah, in Sarah Pasco's book, I remember it said something about because our brains have gotten bigger, and so actually, the their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, th, th, and, and, and, and, and, and, th, th, th, and, th, th, and, thi, thi, I'm to to be to get to get to get thi, I'm to get to get to get to get to get 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 get, I, I to to get, I th, I th, I th, I th, I thi, I thi, I the, I the. I thease, thean, thean, thean, thean, theanseeasease, thease, thean, thease, probably thean, I the, I remember it said something about because our brains have gotten bigger, our heads have gotten bigger, and so actually human birth is one of the most difficult ones. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:50 So the thicker you are, the easier it is to birth, animal-wise. No, because I think some properly thick people have massive heads. I don't think it's proportion to the size, because I was, there were some kids at school that had really big heads. There weren't much going on in there. It's all the casing. Yeah, exactly, just the hard. My husband has a giant head, and my baby has a big head. Honestly, my husband looks like he's wearing a helmet that has his face on it. His head is so big. Like a fake mask thing.
Starting point is 00:23:16 And my son looks exactly like him. How have the first nine months been then, then, then, then, then, then, then, then, then, then? It's exhausting isn't it? You see now why sleep deprivation is used as a torture technique? Yes. Yes. That comes up a lot I think in the first year when people mention that. Now that he's sleeping, he's been sleeping through the night for about three weeks now, now it feels a little bit more, we feel a bit more human. I think we may have painted a slightly sort of two rosy picture of like drop them off for the mother-in-laws and go on to city breaks because that's sort of like a very finite amount of time when you're tour.
Starting point is 00:23:49 But Bating, you're back in London normally without your parents support network. With no grandparents because my parents live in America and his parents live in Ireland. So yeah. Oh God. Oh my word. Yeah, it's been full on. And also, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi's. thi. thi's thi's thi's thi's thi. You're th. You're th. You're th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. th. th. 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. th. th. th. the. the. I the. I the. I the. I the. I the. I the. I the. I the. I the. I'. I'm the. I'. I'm the first one you just, and also I want to say officially on the record, this is also the last one, I can't imagine doing this again. Really? I don't know how women do it. I don't know how anyone does it. It's, yeah. Also because I don't have maternity leave, I went back to work about a week after the baby was born. Yeah, it's so, isn't it, stuff like that? Yeah, yeah. Were you doing stand-up straight after the baby was born?
Starting point is 00:24:25 I think I did stand up maybe three weeks after. I do a lot of voiceover stuff, so I went in and did a voiceover off. After a C-section as well. My voiceover is very easy. You're just sitting down talking, so it wasn't that bad. Don't say that to the David Atmabe, David, David, to to to to to to to to to to to to to tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, thi, that, that, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, thr-a, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, the thi.. thi. thr. thr. I. I. I. I's, thr. thr. tooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, th. tha really tough. It's quite nice just to hear someone go, do you know what, fuck this? How many do you have? Do you just have one? No, I've got two. We've got two. And genuinely I think for Lou, not to speak for her, but she's mentioned it before in books and stuff and on here, they're like, actually the being pregnant and giving birth part, that is more of an issue I think for her and for us than it is having an extra child in the house kind of thing because
Starting point is 00:25:05 Take such a toll on you physically and mentally and hormones and stuff like that and it really and it really and staffes that they didn't do anything for Lou really. And stuff like that and it really affects Lou like when she's because she doesn't enjoy it. Some people love being pregnant and I sort of their threaten. They they they didn't feel like they they didn't feel like 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 th. th. th. the. the. the. the. the. the. to took to tha tha tha tha tha tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. It's tha. It's tha. It's tha. It's tha. It's tha. It's tha. It's tha. It's tha. It's tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha thauuu. It's thau. It's tooeueu. It's tooeueu. tooeauea' tooea. tooea. tooe. tooe. thau. tooe'm touring right now is just me saying how much I hate being pregnant How much I hated pregnancy there were all these crazy things that happen things you don't even know about like I ended up getting carpal tunnel syndrome From pregnancy so it lasted for maybe like nearly two months was carpal tunnel syndrome is that in the hands? It's the tendons in your hands because basically your hormones are? ar tendons in your hands? It's th. the th. th. th. the thin. thin. th. thin. thin. thin. thin. thin. thin. thin. thin. Things thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin's you you thin thin' thin' thin' thin' thunnenenenenene. you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. Things you thin th. Things you thin's you thin's you thin's you don't you don't thin's you don't thin thin, thin, thinnnnnnnnnnnnn't thin. thin. Things you don't thin. thinnnnnnnipe. Things you don't th hormones that help kind of open your pelvis, they open the ligaments I guess in your pelvis, but they're not targeted just to that area so it affects your ligaments all over your body so a lot of women get issues with trigger finger, carpal tunnel syndrome. Then you have the kid and all your hair falls out. I mean honestly I'm just pulling out like clumps together. It's like I've been in a nuclear disaster.
Starting point is 00:26:05 The other one leaves to get restless leg syndrome. Yeah, which is a very funny name for a really awful thing. Yeah, I know, it's like, all right, your legs are moving a bit of whatever, but she's like, all night, she has legs just constantly going, and it's sort of like, it's like, it must be so infuriated, just the whole thing and then you roll over and just see a sort of fat snoring bloke with nothing Nothing nothing happening to apart from going oh yeah That one's coming yeah everyone's slapping on the back congratulations All my husband to do was just his favorite thing ever and then he had a kid and I had to do nine months and
Starting point is 00:26:37 and recover from a season That's just a disaster your publicity for the tour is you pregnant so when was this tour is you pregnant. So when was this taken? I was only just gone five months pregnant, but he was such a big baby, which is another reason I have to see such. I mean, he's massive now. He's nine months, but he wears two-year-olds clothing.
Starting point is 00:26:57 Is your husband big? Yeah, honestly, I think it's our bothers. So my father's six, four, and he's really big. And his dad, I think, is six four, and he's really big. And when I gave birth, I just looked at that kid. And I was like, I gave birth to my father and the tho. He looks exactly like my husband's dad. That is horrible, though. You know what that?
Starting point is 00:27:17 No one wants that, to look. be like your family. Yeah I'm not sure if my husband's dad looks like my baby or if he just looks like babies it's hard to know. So you let me take you through the remaining tour dates you got Dubai well that's tonight. Cork in Ireland Southampton Amsterdam that's exciting yeah and then London Stratford East early in Lates and Paris and Paris. Thanks Charles so will you take the baby with you then London Stratford East early in Lakeshore. And Paris. And Paris. Thanks, Josh. So will you take the baby with you then if you're both there and if your husband's supporting you and you can't drop them a bit out of the way to go back to New York to drop the baby off and then go to Paris? For these dates, no. For these dates, my husband's he's taken one for the team. the team. the team. the team. the team. the team. the team. the team. the team. the team. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the. the. the. thi. thi.

So basically the show in Stratford, I'm filming, that's why there's two that day. Oh, wicked.
Starting point is 00:28:07 Yeah, just get ready for that. Yeah. So that's the problem though, isn't it? When you are going somewhere else in Europe, it's like your husband's lost a day to a today and they're the kid and the kid, and the kid, and th. and th. and th. And their, and th. And their, and th. And their, and th. And their, and th. And th. And th. And th. And their, and th. And their, their, their, their, their, their, thin, thoomorrow, their, tho, tho, tho, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, tho, th. Oh, I. Oh, I. Oh, I. Oh, I's, I's, I. Oh, I. Oh, I's. Oh, I. Oh, I.

Oh, to a stretchable swap for him. We did take the baby on tour in the UK to a couple dates, and that was, I don't recommend that because we brought like a pop-up bed for him to sleep in. But in one of the venues, I think it was in Leeds, the lights in the dressing room were on a sensor, so they wouldn't turn off if anyone was moving. So we put the baby to to to to to to to the baby baby baby, to to to to to to the baby, to the baby, to the baby, to, th. th. the baby, th. thuble, threat, threat, threat, the baby, the baby, the baby, the baby, threath. the baby, the baby, the baby, the baby, the baby, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the 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 th. th. I, I, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, too, tooomoomorrow, tooomorrow, tooomorrow, tea, tea. Wea, tea, teat, tooomorrow, tooomorrow, covered. It's got a little tent to it, but it's not a blackout tent. And so it was just in the interval, it was just me and my husband's not speaking, sitting as still as we could just hoping that the life could turn down to the baby
Starting point is 00:28:54 go to sleep. And then also as he rush it, and you rush on, technically the baby just did a dresser on his own, so then he has to rush back and stay. Well, luckily we had a little interval in between, so that was okay. But yeah, no. It would be mad trying to like feed him and shush him. I can hear my husband. I the the the the th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. th. th. th. the th. th. th. th. th. the th. th. the th. the the. the. the baby the baby the. the. the. the. the baby the baby the baby the baby the baby the baby the baby the baby the baby the baby the baby the baby the baby the baby the baby the baby. the baby. the baby. the baby. the baby.

I th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. t. tod tod tod try. toda. try. toda. try. try. try. try. try. try. try. te. try. te. te. te. te. is a lovely theatre, by the way. It's a beautiful theatre, isn't it? That was the first place I died was the foyer of Stratford Theatre Royal East. I have died there as well on a Monday night. It was so difficult that gig. Why are the foyer?
Starting point is 00:29:38 Because it was like an open mic gig in the foyer. I don't know if it's still going, but I've done maybe three or four gigs and when three or four have gone well you're like, oh I can do this. And then the utter shock of that first death is like awful. That was a tough gig though, too fair. It was basically like cheap booze and I think cheap food to try and fill it up on a Monday. And the company was free, they being paid. So they just were chatting and talking when I was on. And you're in front of a glass window as well so people like walking past on the street like. Yeah and they would give you shit free the window.
Starting point is 00:30:13 In like their business clothes who just look like you know what you just think oh oh god I've made the wrong choice in life. Oh God awful days but it is a lovely the the the the the the the the the the the the In my experience, it's always better to do the theatre, not the entrance foyer. Yeah, just to check, you are filming it in the theatre, right? You're not the foyer. We're going to do the foyer, but now I'm starting to rethink things here. It'd be quite exciting though, to film to to to to to to to to to to to the to the you're doing the one show isn't it? It's not really actually that exciting. Did you go down the NCT route trying to get like mom and dad friends with kids the same age? Are you going to baby classes? I'll get the vibe that's not your thing. No we didn't do any of that. We just watched a
Starting point is 00:30:59 couple YouTube videos. I spoke to a few friends who were like, you forget everything in the NCT class by the time the baby arrives. So just look it up on YouTube. I do regret not, we don't really have any friends that we've made from having a kid. We have some friends who have kids who have kids who have kids already. But also, those people seem boring. I don't know. A lot of them seemed, we'd the to hear them chatting when we'd go for th really th. th really th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the th. th. th. thi. thin, thin, their, thin, 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, their, th. their, their, their, their their, their their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, 'd hear them chatting when we go for our hospital visits and I'm like, I don't want to be, do I want to be friends with this person because their kids are relatively the same age? I'm not sure. I know. Because it's not enough really is it to bond to go, our children a bit of similar, it's almost like going. Basically, we had sex in the same bit of London at the same time. It's basically to go me me me me me me me me me me me me me, go, go, to go, to go, to go, to go, to go, to go, the, to go, to go, to, the, th. their, to, thi, their, to, to, their, to, to, thi, because, to, thi, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, their, because, their, because, because, their, to, because, to, because, to, because, to, to, because, to, to, because, to, to, their, because, their, their, their, their, their, because, I, their, I, I, I. I, their, their, their, not, not, their, not, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, because, not. Because, because, because, not. Should we see if we get on? Yeah, it's difficult because you've got this situation where I suppose you're going to get to the point where your kids become friends and that's when you spend time with parents. But when you've both got a nine-month-old,
Starting point is 00:31:55 they're not going to do anything together, are they? Yeah. They're not going to get anything out of it themselves. In a way it's better, isn't it's, isn't, can really pick the friends? Whereas, how old are your kids? Three and six, mine are. Eight and six, so they're sort of properly making mates. So you just kind of have to hope that they make friends with kids that have cool parents, I guess. Yeah. You have no control. If you even try and have control, they look mental. But I do feel like, some parents do, try and make kids friends with... Oh like set up play dance. Yeah like and stuff. Which I sort of get though because you'd rather your kids be friends with people you get when I was a kid if ever you had to hang out with children of your parents' friends, they were the weirdest kids. They were fucking odd. Like the kids that that you didn't
Starting point is 00:32:40 choose yourself I never liked those kids. If the parents just went around there because they got on with the parents. T. They. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. It. It.

I never liked those kids. If the parents just went around there because they got on with the parents, that's normally what was it, so awkward. So fucking awkward, awful. I remember my parents, my mom was friends with this woman and she would go to her house and I'd play with her daughters and they had just like this horrific doll house that they'd made that was like, it was like, it was like, it was like, it was like, it was something, it was something, it was something, it was something, it was something, it was something, it was something, it was something, it was something, it was something, it was something, it was something, it was something, it was something, it was something, it was something, it was something, it was something, it was something, it was like, it of a Tim Burton movie. And then they'd handmade all the dolls that went in it.
Starting point is 00:33:05 Like, it was terrifying. We went there all the time, because my mom just like their mom. Yeah, that's the thing, isn't it? And you haven't got a choice. Which part of America did you grow up in? In Staten, in New York, which is kindthat show the Jersey Shore? Yes, yes. So it's, you know, fake tans and big hair and long... Everybody talks like this. That's a lot of those people were from Staten Island that were on that show.
Starting point is 00:33:33 So what are the... Compare the other bits of New York, because I always wonder this when I'm going to cities. Give me the equivalence of the other bits of New York. So Staten Island's Essex. Yeah, I guess sort of the upper west side would be like Chelsea maybe. Right. Or West London. Then a lot of Brooklyn has now become very yummy mummy, so maybe that's kind of Walthamstow kind of thing. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:57 I'm not sure. I've actually never been to Queens. I don't even picture a Queen's. That's North East isn't it? It's quite far North East. Is it attached to Brooklyn? I don't know? No Jersey's South West isn't it sort of like you've got a manhade? Jersey's just to the never eat sour to the West. Yeah. To the West, yeah. It's also, Jersey's very long so. It always goes up, doesn't it to where the the the the the the to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the to to to to to to to to the 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 to to be to to 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 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 to be to b. to b. to b. to b. the to b. the the the touch. the too. to b. tooes. to b. tooes. to b. toe. to b. to to to to to to that in Jersey? I think so. I don't know. What's the equivalent of Jersey with? Jersey, it can be a little bit like Staten Island too. So, Jersey has many different parts. They also have like, you know those brows that wear like Oakley sunglasses but on the back of their head? Oh yeah. They're like tech bros. I always think of them. They're like, they're like, attire everywhere. And they live in Jersey as well. They live in Jersey, yeah. Queens is the other side.
Starting point is 00:34:46 So it's like, I don't know anything about Wilsden or Kilburn because I live in Southeast London. So it's sort of like, I've never been there. Where do you live in London, Janine? Well, from so. Oh, there we go. Oh, the same thanks. Yeah. to. 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. the. the the the the the the th. the the the the the the the the th. Yeah.

I don'todle cross dogs and a baby we have the same buggy as everybody else. It's a slow train to Hertfordshire basically. We started thinking like we can get so much more space we just moved a little bit further out of the... Yeah exactly everyone's slowly creeps further out. Yeah. You'll be in Hartford to have in a shit takeaway in five years I guarantee it. Yeah yeah I see. 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. thi the the the th. their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their th.

And what does it feel like, do you see a child as British?
Starting point is 00:35:28 It's so weird. It's so weird because I'm American and Andrews Irish. And I'll be honest with you, my only reference point for British kids is just American horror movies. There's always just a creepy little English kid. Just creeping around, like, hello, mummy. Like, I don't want that. Because he will have the accent. I know, I know.
Starting point is 00:35:55 And then obviously, if your husband's Irish, who's you born in Ireland as well? Yeah, Dublin, yeah. Which, come on, what a cute accent that is. What cute accent that is. Would you consider moving back to one to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to tothat is. Would you consider moving back to one of the two? Just so that my I enjoy my son's voice more. Yes. Yeah, it's worth it, isn't it? Yeah. We might move maybe to Ireland. It's very hard when you have kids when you don't have any family around. So yeah, I don't know. The state scares me because there's just guns everywhere now, more than even when I was living there. Yeah. I mean, so many people in my family, and not even conservative members of my family, liberals.
Starting point is 00:36:35 Just they all have guns now, so. Really? Yeah. Yeah. And where would you keep a gun? My brother has, well first off, I have two brothers. One is like super liberal and he has his gun up in a fingerprint safe, so his fingerprint unlocks the safe above the door to the entrance way of his bedroom. Right. In case someone breaks in. Yeah. My dad has just a bunch of loose handguns in a
Starting point is 00:37:07 plastic bag on the floor of his closet and the only way I know that is because he accidentally drilled, he was hanging a shelf and accidentally drilled into the water pipe and so poor Andrew was in there trying to fix it. But this was insane. My dad didn't turn the water off so Andrew was trying to fix it while the water was just spraying in the face. And he was the the the the 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. And he was standing th. And he was standing th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the the the the the the the the the the thi thi. thi. the thi. thi. thi. In thi. In thi. th. In th. In th. In th. th. In th. th. th. th. th. th. th. In their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their the. the. the. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. the. the. fix it. But this was insane. My dad didn't turn the water off. So Andrew was trying to fix it while the water was just spraying in the face. And he was standing there and he's trying to be polite, you know, because it's his father-in-law. And he's like, I'm pretty sure we can just turn the water. My dad's like, no, no, I try it everything. You just got to do it this this this this way this way this way this way. Anyway. Anyway. Anyway. Anyway. Anyway. Anyway. Anyway. Anyway. Anyway. Anyway. Anyway. Anyway. Anyway. Anyway. Anyway. Anyway. th. the way. the way. the way. the way. the way. the way. the way. the way. the way. the way. the way. the way. the way. the way. the way. And he's just the way. And he's just the way. And he's just the way. And he. And he. And he. And he. And he. And he. And the way. And the way. And the way. And the way. And the way. And the way. And the way. And the way. And the way. And the way. And the way. And the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the water about two hours later and just found them. Oh my God now. And then my my other brother is a doomsday prepper and he keeps his guns in an underground bunker that he built with some friends he met on the internet in Arizona. Wow that is amazing. That is three really different approaches to gun control. Exactly. So if you were in the States would you have a gun? No. I've shot a gun once my dad took me. 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 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 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 the the the the the the the the the the their their their their their their their their their if you were in the States would you have a gun? No. No. I've shot a gun
Starting point is 00:38:06 once my dad took me to a gun range. I shot a gun on Easter Sunday. Grab the old bag for life out for the closet. Yeah. Classic bag for a gun. So basically if the one breaks into his dad, he runs to the closet, gets a gun out the bag, right? Your other brother's got a climb up and get his thumb out out.......... No, to, to, to, to, to, to, to to to, to to to to to to to the to the the th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, the closet, gets a gun out the bag, right? Your other brother's got to climb up and get his thumb out, but probably half asleep naked with a lob on. That's what I'd be in middle of a night. So you get the thumb out, you get the gun out. Now you're stood there naked on the gun, trying to defend her out.
Starting point is 00:38:36 And your other brother's got to got a drive to Arizona. Oh he's got a drive to Arizona to access the bunker. His is for the end of the world though. That's for the end of days. And what does he think is going to lead to the end of days? So all these doomsday preppers have all different ideas of what it is that it's going to be and his is that the power grid goes down. Right. So that we suddenly lose power, internet, running water. Yeah, but that used to happen all the time when I was a kid, you just light a few candles for 45 minutes and you're fine. Right, until it goes back up, but what if someone, if someone were to attack that, let's say they blow it up beyond repair, like nuke it. The power would be down for months.
Starting point is 00:39:18 I mean, you saw with COVID how quickly the supermarkets were empty. Yeah, yeah. When that happens, people panic. And so the reason he has all the guns is because he said, it's not your enemy. You should be scared of. It's your neighbor. Oh my God. Because when people are hungry, they become desperate. It's a great one.
Starting point is 00:39:36 I might be a doomsday preppin. Oh my God. But he has got food and water their. not just guns. Yeah. You've never seen someone more vindicated than when COVID happened and people couldn't buy stuff and my brother just opened up his spare room and it was full of like bags of legumes and rice and pasta. And is he a laugh about it? Sounds like you double-checking someone that's on a stag do. Yeah, he sounds cool but he can be really intense about it in some ways. I mean he came and visited and we live right behind a fireworks Store and so they set fireworks off every weekend and when that happened he was like that's a smith in West in 22 gauge and my husband was like I'm pretty sure it's just fireworks and he's like you think I don't know what a gun sounds like and we were like okay Okay, okay, it's a gun. But also I think he thinks of it a little bit like the boy. the boy. the boy. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I. I's. I's. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. 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. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that. think he thinks of it a little bit like the Boy Scouts. He's learning all these skills, you know how to make a CB radio out of, I don't know,
Starting point is 00:40:30 like the underwire of a bra or something. Legend. And there's community and all this stuff. And so he thinks, you know, if it doesn't happen, at least he's learned new skills and met people. Yeah, I think, I'll take their their their their their their their their th th th th think think think 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 th. th. th. th. th. that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. the. theananananananananananananan. the. the. toe. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. got kids in the family? No, no, no. No, no. Yeah, I think I'll take me chances than going in an underground bunker with them. I'd rather be out and about with the neighbors. Do you want to hear something crazy? So to be in this group, you have to have skills that would help in the apocalypse. So my brother's a nurse, so he can't be in the group. But his wife is she was, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thr-a. to be out out, to be out out out out out out out, their their their their their out, their 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 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, their. their. their. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. to be to be to be to be to be out of. to to to their. to to their. to the to to the to the to to the to to they were like, she doesn't have any skills. So she trained and became a gun instructor.
Starting point is 00:41:09 So now, she's in. Her skill is that she can teach people how to shoot. Wow. I think dancing is a skill. Yeah. Because obviously, right, you're in the bunker. You've got your guns, you've got your water. Satie night. you've got a nurse, Saturday Night comes around, but it's strictly, it's not on the telly, there is no telly. Before you know it, she's back in the game. She's out, feathers out,
Starting point is 00:41:29 exactly. Exactly. So you wouldn't have the skills, Janine, or would you have you got, how good do you have to be? Can you go like, I can do a bit of DIY? Or does it have to be I am properly certificeted up on this? I? ? I? I to to be I to be I to be I to be I to be I to be I to be I to be I to be I to be I am properly. I am properly. I am properly. I am properly. I am properly to be I am properly to be I am properly to be I am properly to be to be to be I am properly to be I am properly certificated up on this. I think it needs to be like health care, survival skills. I personally think comedians would do well in the apocalypse. I think it's so bleak you need something to laugh about. Yeah. Comedy always booms, doesn't it, when societies are the bad way? At the worst of times. At the worst of times? That must be quite a big bunk thing if it's quite a tha, it's, tha, tham, tham, tham, 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, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's thi, I's thi, I's thi, I's thi, I's thi, thi, thi, thi.a.a. thi.a. thi. thoooooooomoomoomorrow, thi. I'm thi. I'm doing it, this little gang. Yeah, they bought a farm. So it's a full working farm, yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:07 So if you turn up, okay, say this has happened, right, the power's gone down, it's not really kicked off yet, he's there with his wife and all his other crew, you and your husband and the baby arrive. Two comics. They're not let's thathe you th. th. th. th. th. th. I. I. I. I. I. thathe. that. I. I. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. T. th. the. the. the. the. th. that. So, the.

So, th. So, th. So, th. So, thi. So, thi. So, thi. So, t. So, to. So, to. So, to. So, to. So, to. So, to. So, th. So, th. So, there's this fable. I think it's an Aesop fable that's very big in the Dumesday Prepper community. It's about, I think it's the two mice. So one mouse is really productive in the spring and gathers all the nuts and makes his home really warm. And the other mouse just like lays by the river, relaxing. And in the winter, the lazy mouse comes and the mouse that is is is is is is is th the lazy, the lazy, the lazy, the lazy, the lazy, the lazy, the lazy, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, so. It is the, so. It is the, I is the the the, I is the the the the the, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I is the the, I, I is the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the mous, I is the thoomes, I is two, two, two, two, two, two, tooan, I think, I think, thoomorrow, I think, I thi. I thi. I thi. I they. I the the the the things from the mouse that had been really productive and the moral of the story is like unless you're ready you're dead.
Starting point is 00:42:47 Wow. And does the winter mouse shoot the summer mouse to keep him out of his nut store? Not if he's got a super hot wife on guard uninsructing life yeah. God that is mad. I do think that is a if all the power goes and the internet goes and stuff like that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that I that 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 the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the 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. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I the is the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the the the the. the the the the the the the the. I do think that is a, if all the power goes and the internet goes and stuff like that, I had no internet for two days, I couldn't exist in the world. So if that happened for like months. Yeah, I just can't be bothered. I just, life's difficult enough day to day. I don't want to survive the apocalypse.
Starting point is 00:43:16 I just, jump some of the world. Yeah, if it's is is is is the the the the the the the end is is the end, it's, I is thi. I is thi. I is thi. I is thi. I is thi. I's. I's. I's. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. that's just, thi. that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's, that's. that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. that thi. thi. that thi. that thi. the the the the the the the that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that of the world. Yeah, exactly. If I have to switch on and off my internet router, I'm like, ugh, my day's ruined, you know, I don't know where it is, I don't know how to do it. I'm not living in that world though. No, it's not for me. If your brother said I want to take my nephew when he's 12 and teach him these skills in the wild because he'll need them. No guns. No guns. 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 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 too. tea. tea. tea. tea. tea. tea. tea. tea. tea. tea. tea. tea. tea'll need them? No guns. No guns. No guns. He can do all the camping stuff and all the fire starting and all that but the gun thing. Yeah, no. And do you think, I mean, I know that your kids only nine months so you probably haven't come across many other parents and stuff, but do you think it'll be a quite a different upbringing in the UK to, I mean New York's not a million miles culturally from the the the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. And th. And i i i i i i i i th. th. th. I th.

I'd like him to have a similar childhood to what I had. You know, I grew up in the most southern part of Staten Island so it was very far away from Manhattan, so there was, I lived on an
Starting point is 00:44:19 island so the very tip of Staten Island, so there were no cars down there there, was driving anywhere so we just rode our bikes all day and went into the woods and you know. Yeah. I'd like Miles to have a childhood like that with maybe a little bit more culture. I'll a little bit more thrown. there's a little bit more. their train on Staten Island. There's no subway system. It's sort of almost halfway to Philadelphia, really, like, not that far, but don't want to drag you down. If you get the boat to Staten Island, that's what people, tourist do to look at the Statu of Liberty, right, the the th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, their, th, th, th, their, th, th, th, their, their, th, their, th, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, the, the, the, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, is, is, is, is, is, is, is their, is their, is their, is their, is their, is ta. And, ta. And, ta.a. And, ta.a.a.a. And, tota. And, ta. And, they's they's they the train up to the north of Staten Island, the North Shore and then you get the ferry over and the ferry's free. Yes it is. And the reason it's free is because if it wasn't, no one would go to Staten Island.
Starting point is 00:45:12 There's nothing there. And what do you go on nights out in drink until you're 21 in America, can you really? Yeah, yeah. I mean everyone does. It's so weird. Everyone does. As soon as you go to college when you're 18, everybody drinks. No, mostly Manhattan was when you come home,
Starting point is 00:45:34 thanksgiving, the night before Thanksgiving is a really big party night. So kids who'd all come home from college would go out in Manhattan and then on the ferry home. It was just like there's a bar on the ferry so it's like you're on this little 30-minute yacht ride. Oh that must be incredible. Yeah that was super fun, yeah. Not that I'm missing drinking, but that must have been incredible. Just getting pissed on a ferry. That's all it took to the tent too peck. that's a really. thhea. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. Oh. Oh. Oh, thi. Oh, thi. Oh, thi. Oh, thi. Oh, th. Oh, th.

It's actually a really nice ride. Especially if you're coming home for Thanksgiving. It's like everyone loves that, you know, that driving home for Christmas or Thanksgiving. It's sort of like a wholesome feeling.

And, th. that like live in London and go back to like a village in Yorkshire of Christmas it's all like beautiful and I'll just get the same commuter train to zone free of London shuffing off got the buses to sat the house after 40 minutes. I've got to ask about something in your career you were nominated for the best voice performance by Inside Gammer that 2021. Oh yeah, yeah. What does that mean? Are you a big gamer? No, not at all.
Starting point is 00:46:49 I just saw on your website. I was like, what is that? So what did you do? You won so many things in 2019. In 2019. It was a good year. It must have been a nightmare. Yeah, basically the new act that came through, you won the BBCC New Comedy- Moose, 99 Club, Laughing Horse New Act of the Year, that's basically like doing the treble, the Amuse Moose, the BBC and the Laughing Horse. And then COVID strikes and you can't kind of be a comedian off the back of that. You sound like my therapist.
Starting point is 00:47:20 Yeah. How did that make you feel? But like I remember like when people won all those awards that's kind of when you get all the paid gigs and all that kind of stuff. That wasn't even the question the question was about best voice performance at Inside Gamma magazine. We'll get to. Is that a fair description of how that happened then? Did COVID just strike at the wrong time? Yeah yeah I think the first competition that I won in 2019, because I was just doing open mics. I was basically doing open mics until that first Edinburgh in 2019
Starting point is 00:47:51 when I got the newcomer nomination. But the first time that I won one of those awards, I got an email the next day. And someone was like, do you want to come and do our gig for 75 quid and I was like, I can make 75 quid, do a stand-up comedy? You know, it was the first time because if people don't know, you have to, when you're doing open mics, you have to, not only do you not get paid, but you have to drag a friend along who's going to buy drinks at the bar and I have to sit there for three hours and watch people try and do comedy that I can't do comedy, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, tho, tho, you, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, that, thr, that, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, thi that, thi thi thi, thi, thi, thi, th comedy or you know, so that was amazing. I thought I'd made it. And yeah, then less than a year after that Edinburgh, yeah,
Starting point is 00:48:29 COVID happened and that was the end of that. God. Then I started doing Zoom gigs, which were so fun. Did you like them? No. Oh my God. They were horrible things. Where now, I go and do a circuit gig, like, or th and th and th and th and th and that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that's, that's, that, thi, thi, thi, thi, that's, thi, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, the the the the the the the the the the, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th.. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, threat, threat, tho, thooooooooooooooooooooooooomo. And, that's, th gig for no money to try out a new idea like or an open-right gig and like that's a fun afternoon evening for me. Go out, try a few
Starting point is 00:48:50 things to come back, don't get paid. However, if they said, do you want to go on zoom and no, no, that's not fun. Unless there's money. Just criticize someone's exercise bike in 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 thoomotheothe. thoesomeomeomeomeomea. Juste. Juste. Juste. Juste. Just. I's thoomice is. Just. Just. Just. Just. Just. Just. Just. Just. Just. Just. Just. Just. Just. Just. Just. Just is. Just is. Just is. Just is. Just is. Just. Just.

I'm just, th. I'm just, th. I'm just, like, th. I'm just. Just, th. Just, th. Just. Just. someone sitting room. Yeah, exactly. Watching someone making a risotto in their kitchen while you're eating comedy. Right, I wish we did a final question. Oh yeah, we always finish on the final question, which is the same question, which is, is there one thing about your husband as a parent, that you're just in awe of, you're so impressed with that something parenting wise you think I just couldn't do that and on the other side of the coin is there's something he does that you haven't brought up with him but were he to listen to this it's a way to communicate to him that that really does your head in about his parenting. Well we do couples therapy so if there was something I had to be a. Coupl the time or is it just once a week? We've taken a break now because we're
Starting point is 00:49:48 touring so much. Well from therapy or from each other? Therapy. And actually I think our therapist misses us which is really nice. Oh sweet. Yeah, we've been going for since the pandemic. No matter how much you love someone you shouldn't spend 24 hours a day together. That was rough. So for who brings up the couple's therapy? Is it a joint decision or is there one that goes I think we would benefit from this? I brought it up which doesn't of course doesn't go well and then we saw this therapist in person who's not our therapist now and I loved her but all she did was just take my side with everything. So obviously he felt very cornered every time we went in there and after a while we're like oh yeah we are just paying a stranger 70 quid to listen to us arguing for an hour. I'll think I'll want to be a therapist.
Starting point is 00:50:39 So now we see this new therapist on Zoom. We've only had Zoom sessions with her, which is weird. And yeah, I imagine that we'll meet her in person one day. And the woman who answers the door will be like, Linda, Linda's been dead for 30 years. And we're like, ah. Yeah, it's great. And she's really good at helping us say things to each other. Because obviously you know when a relationship resentment can't theee the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the theateateateateateate. the. theateateate. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. the. the. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. thean. thean. thean. thean. thean. thean. thean. thean. thean. thean. thean. th can really build and especially with parenting I found that I always think I'm doing more work than he is and he always thinks he's doing more work than I am. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:12 And so it's really good to have it be contained. So once a week for an hour, we're just going to get stuff off our chest, figure out, oh what was it that was actually, you were actually trying thuuu............ And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, thi, thi, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, 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, th... And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th, oh, what was it that it was actually, you were actually trying to say when you said that thing that I took as an insult, you know, and so it's really nice. I think people think a couple of therapies only for when you're having like big problems, but it's very good for us just as kind of maintenance. Yeah, it's sort of a bit of a stigma, to it, isn't it? to that's something that you brought up that would answer this question normally if you weren't having the therapy. Okay, well I haven't brought this up, but... And it's hard for me to bring it up because I don't really cook. So Andrew does the lion's share of cooking.
Starting point is 00:51:56 I try and cook and I don't know if you can see. I've grated my thumb off. I. I. I. I. I. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I the. I to the. I've thrated. I've to to thrated.

I've tried. tried tried. I've tried to grate cheese the other day and just completely skin myself. I'm really bad at it. But when Andrew cooks, he will just leave the flames on hours after the meal has finished. Oh yeah, yeah. Or he leaves the oven on. And I'm like, do we need the hobon right now? Or can I'm like, do we need the hob on right? Also, do we need the hob on right now? to be feeling? the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to just to just to just to just to just to just to just to just to just to just to just. to just. to just just. to just. to just. to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to too. too. th. th. th. the. the. the. thr. thr. tooo. too. too. too. too. toe. too. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. toe. to aggressive way to say it because you don't need the hobbom right now. If there's not something on above it, no one's going. You feeling particularly chilly just right? Yeah, yeah. Do you think we won't have enough of gas and thought what else for a couple more quid on it? There's no way to ask so that sounding passive aggressive. Or sounding ungrateful that he cooked dinner. Yeah, I suppose you could could just, that you that you that you that you that that that that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's. that's that's. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. th. that's. th. th. that. the th. the the the te. that. that. te. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. You could just, do you need to bring it up that you're turning it off? You know I don't need to bring it up, but I'm like, don't leave it on.
Starting point is 00:52:49 What if I'm not here? I can't just be in charge of turning the oven off. I think some of them make a lot of money if they invented, you know the way that the refrigerator? You know the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way that the way that the way the way that the way that the way the way the way that the way the way the way the way the way the way that that the way the way that that the way the way the way that that that the way that the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way that the way that the way that the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the way the the the the the the the the the the refrigerator the refrigerator the refrigerator the the the the refrigerator the refrigerator the refrigerator beeps that's the refrigerator beeps that's sense that there was no pot on top of the open clay. Oh yeah, that's a good idea. Can I just say copyrighted? Yeah, that's absolutely solid as a rock that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:13 Enjoy your fortune. Yeah, this is June the 12th, 2024. That's when that idea has been tabled. And can I say a nice thing? Yeah, of course. He's endlessly patient. So I can be so, let's go, we gotta get this time, we gotta go, and he's just very calm and very patient with our son and very loving. And I feel like I'm in a constant mode of, we only have one hour,

Especially me and you are so obsessed with a New York and America from film to knife. But we're just like, what, what's Brooklyn like? A pathetic little English nerds and she's like, ah, it's like, okay, it's like, I don't mean, I've never been. Talk to me about the ferry that goes past the Statue of Liberty
Starting point is 00:55:13 and you can have a drink on it. Can you imagine that go in two pints of Milo light please and they give you a fucking pint of lager and you look at the statue Libby and you look at the statue a little bit and you go, this is living.
