Pickax.
Maybe It's Mabelene is such an iconic piece of music.
Hit the track.
Everyone in the studio that I worked on this jingle with
all had like childhood stories or memories.
Yeah, we're around either watching these commercials on TV
or sitting with our moms while they were doing their makeup,
and it became really personal for us.
so guys i've started um a wrestling promotion oh i know we've all sort of experienced this vicariously before
in a previous life yes yes but this one is is directly pertinent to our interests i feel and isn't
done at the expense of like your employees or anything no no it's not god who would do that that would be awful
God forbid, right?
Yeah. So it's through Peter and I's main job.
Is that correct? Is that correct, English, Peter and Eyes?
Oh, I don't know. Peter and me's.
Mine and Peter's main job, triple jump, and it's in a video game called Smackdown,
Here Comes the Pain.
And I created a load of custom wrestlers, right?
And I've set up a roster and started a campaign.
And in the opening bout, it was Tiny Peter Austin versus Dave Benson Phillips.
TP versus DPP who will win
But unfortunately
Tiny Peter Austin
Unsuccess
Dave Benson Phillips
Emerging victorious
Well it's true to life I would say
He is a wrestler
He is for the best
I feel like Dave's going to provide
Sorry not to disparage your wrestling Peter
But I feel like Dave's going to provide
A bit of sure throughout the rest of the
The card
Is that?
No that's right
That's good
Yeah that's the vernacular
Okay, gold star
He is in a tag team
with Neil Buchanan
Oh
Wait I quickly run through who's in it
I'm very curious now
Let me let me pull up a photo
And I'll talk you through
Oh it's a brilliant photo Mikey
Have you not seen this
No no I missed this
I'll link you to the to the tweet
Let's let's find it
There's quite a few
There's quite a few people in it
Here we go
There's grimace in there
With these thick mucknuggles
Grimmis is in it
He is in it
It's an all star cast
And Grimmis is
one of the better made characters
surprisingly. You think? You think he's all right?
I was pretty impressed by Grimmis.
Thank you. I really appreciate that.
Here you go, Mikey. That took me
fucking ages. Wow.
That, okay, just follow the list.
Cheers Discord, yes. Nice one.
Oh my fucking God.
Simon Miller looks at Sporn.
He doesn't he?
He's just a bold man in a singlet.
What does that say about Simon Miller?
We've got Dick Mycinko
from at the top
Billy Ray Walrus
there's rules boss there
he's got a question mark on his nose
you can't really see it
there's you've spotted Dave
in his tie-dye top
Dave's very well done as well
it actually looks a little bit like him
you've got
James Jenkins one of our editors
there's me
then there's Tiny Peter
and there's Ashton
I like how you've done
everyone like everyone looks pretty much
spot on to their counter up counterparts but ben yours is that it's not great is it
i like that you saw selfless that you put the most time in everyone else but yourself yeah i really
didn't they're to be honest i didn't try really hard with any of these guys uh but then we've got
brian butterfield obviously on the right there he is um we've got ivy who you won't be
familiar with ivy don't you worry you with the spooky voice okay so that's her now you know the
Fisher-Price car that we have
the pink and gold one
right yeah well the Fisher
Price car as it turns out uses she
her pronouns and is a female member
of the roster and that's her there
lovely she looks simply
magnificent she is
she's actually quite scary to look at
but you can't most of her is obscured by other
wrestlers she's very wide
she's pretty wide quickly running through
the rest we have sparkles
Barbara's lady wife Hannah Montana
Billy Ray Cyrus, Neil Boocake's there.
Wow, what made, like, so, for people who are listening to this in a car,
trying to imagine, just the most haunted depictions of all these people possible,
and it's scary than that.
But what made Neil so buff?
It's all that, all the big art attacks, I think.
Yeah, just to carry around loads and loads of barrels of salt.
Just everywhere it goes.
So many, so many barrels of salt.
Then you've got, you've got Polyrath.
Palmusek there
Brian Bumpis
who is legally different
not the same guy
as Brian Butterfield
different man
then there's Pichiti Dust
Grimmis
who's got nugs on his
tum tum and Simon Miller
and that's the roster
God what a line up
that is impressive
Neil looks like the guy
out of that
really violent video game
hatred
I don't know that I'm familiar
with that one
it's like an infamous
like
school shooter
simulate or a set.
Oh, fuck, okay.
That was not the intention.
I know he used to have longer hair,
so that was the closest I could get.
Just the sort of wispy fringe is what does it.
Does Barbara Piss have orgy tattooed across her chest?
No, it's forgive.
Oh, of course.
Forgive.
It does look like orgy in that photo.
Apologies again to everyone just experiencing this through
audio description for the blinds,
because you can't see it.
Pussing boots are ginger thoms,
buys a spot of light on the floor and chases it.
That was always the advert before the films for me, for the blind.
But, yeah, I just wanted to give like a Dave update, a virtual Dave update.
Good.
He can be seen over on Twitch.tv.
Forge slash Team Triple Jump, cheeky plug.
I'm going to add that to the thread if you haven't already.
No, I haven't.
Yeah, do you want, I don't know if I have a full photo of Dave himself, but the full showdown between Dave Benson Phillips and Tiny Peter Austin is available on our Vod's channel at Triple Jumps.
I need to watch.
This is a wrestling I'm going to want to watch.
Yeah, me too.
I would actually watch this.
A lot of people said that they've never been more invested.
There was like a 20-minute match between Brian Butterfield
and an actual real wrestler that Brian Butterfield won.
And it was amazing.
It was the most edge of your seat viewing you could possibly imagine.
But there we are.
That's it.
Amazing.
Impressive work.
Thank you, Ben.
It's okay.
Music time?
Yeah, okay.
Let's do it.
Music time.
Hello everybody and welcome to Podiot's the official
Vidiates podcast
It's a conversational podcast where we take some questions from you at home
and obey the law of the three us where everybody brings
A Thing Along to Talk About
I'm Ben
I'm Peter and I'm Michael
Hello everyone
Body. How are we? I nearly said that like you normally say it, Mikey. You, you, you, Mike it. Mike it. You normally say, hello everybody. Hello everybody. Hello everybody. That's a, that's a Mikeyism. But, hi, how are you?
Yeah, I'm feeling invigorating for a life after looking up, looking so intently at those faces. I looked at nothing but that image for five minutes while you went through. I'm really sorry.
No, it's, it's good. I think it's, it's, it's improved me as a person. I'm going to
take these fiercers, I'm going to have nightmares about them for years to come.
Okay, well, that's good.
Yeah.
I mean, that was the intention after all.
Peter, how are you?
I am very well, thank you.
How are you, Ben?
Yeah, I'm okay.
I got my second jab today, which I think makes me invulnerable to all ailments.
Yeah.
And that's good, feeling pretty powerful today.
Got a dead arm.
I haven't entered the risky, like, sleep time.
Mode?
Only because of the awkward pause, not because of just the words I haven't.
But when you said, I've got a dead arm, I haven't, and then paused awkwardly.
Oh, no.
I just, I thought you were going somewhere else with that.
Where did you think, go on, help to share it with the class.
Go on, Peter.
Sit, yep.
I haven't given, I believe, I believe the technical term, the urban dictionary term, is a stranger.
I haven't given myself a stranger.
Oh, but, uh, a stranger.
Yeah.
Well, that's where you get the vaccine and the non-dominantan tam, right?
Yeah.
What, to avoid temptation?
To avoid that, you know, the devil's tickle?
Yeah, eat some Kellogg's as well for breakfast.
Yeah.
Is it Kellogg's or Quakers Oat?
Or is it the same?
Are they just kind of the same?
I think it's corn flakes, isn't it?
Yeah, a food so plain.
Oh, yeah, that was it, yeah.
Corn flakes.
Conflakes were like, yeah, that'll stop them.
We should, one of us should do that as a thing at some point.
I think we have done.
Have we?
I'm pretty sure.
Yeah, someone's done it, isn't it?
I'm humiliating.
Well, if you want to help us pay for our education, or my education, I should clarify,
so that I do know more about what we have and haven't covered on Poddiots,
why not consider contributing to the cause and supporting us financially?
You can do that.
It is possible.

mikey has the first batch for us we begin with billy ray and the clonosaurus stop turgling my
gurgberg shrek the musical mr black donac o seven poddiet's made me crash my
car. Is this another potty accent that's happened?
I think that maybe that's the same guy
who did crash his car while laughing at. Immediately,
I don't know if we've spoken about this, but he did
incriminate himself by saying
that he laughed so hard that he
crashed. So I don't know if he was
making any kind of insurance claim.
It's definitely your fault. But he did publicly state
it was his fault, yeah.
Oops. Oh, well, hopefully the insurers
aren't listening or following us on Twitter.
Fingers cross.

2018 was a difficult year for me
and having your videos to look forward to
help me through the year.
Keep up the great, funny content
and Peter...
Oh, fuck.
Se cozy bello and alto.
That was pretty good accent.
I don't know what that is.
Maybe it means you're very gross.
Probably you're very tall, maybe.
Dipper's gross.
Alto.
So that's probably something to do with size,
I would have thought.
Yeah.
It's also a singing voice range.
I don't know, maybe it's Italian.
Oh, you are so beautiful and tall.
Oh, beautiful. Oh, yeah, bellow.
That's nice.
That's very nice. Thank you, Roland.

Commiserations.
a couple more
we've got two in the pink

lovely
what does that mean
can you explain that
I'm not sure
something about
something about
tossing yourself off
with a numb hand
I don't know
God's tickle
what
it's
is it something to do
two in
two like
two stroking
billy row wallers
to stroke
in the pink walrus
yeah
and the stink
is the psycho
seagull's mess
that was left behind
right
yeah
that sounds really
complicated
I don't know
what one would
get out of that
You'd have to place Billy quite near the mess in order to reach.
It's quite a, quite a mayhem to put together, but it's worth it for just the experience, I guess.
Oh, okay.
Last three from me, we've got Peter Stole My Spiro Porn.
I did.
I won't give it back.
Caroline, come back, I forgive you.

The very generous Mr. Macca who said,
Hey, boys, just wanted to say thank you for being such great lads
and making such entertaining and hilarious content over the years.
By the way, on the subject of chocolate bars,
I just discovered Cadbury's star bars,
and they may just be the end of me.
So good.
Oh, what the hell's a star bar?
Are they the ones that are a bit like,
a boost or is that just boost?
Yeah, it looks boosty, but the marketing line for them is amazing.
Delicious Cadbury milk chocolate surrounding a chewy cosmos of golden caramel.
Wow.
It sounds expensive.
I want one of those.
Mr. Macca, send us some.
No, you've already done enough.
Thank you very much for your donation.

I mean, it's clearly intending to say I want a bigger dick, but it's...
Oh, I see.
It's not been...
It's not even very well done.
It's not very tricky because I can see it right there.
This is not even broken up.
Anyway, thank you.
Must try harder.
Thank you.
Yeah, you got to wake up pretty early to trick us.
And dogging in Peter's tiny car.
And that is your pod squad for this week.
Thank you so much.
I've heard dogging so many times today.
Good God.
Why?
Maybe you should stop dogging then.
No, but I like it.
It gets me out of the house.
Yeah, it's the reason you've heard it.
because lots of people have walked past your car saying,
excuse me, can you stop dogging, please?
I've been accused of being a doggard before,
so, I mean, it wouldn't surprise me.
Have you really?
Is there much of a backstory to that?
It was just saying we were doing a student film,
and so we drove out to this quiet country lane,
like three cars filled with people.
Yeah, and we just kind of parked up on the side,
and then the landowner came up,
and he was like, you doggers?
We just looked at him like, no.
Because we'll get a lot of doggers around here.
No, promise, we're not dog.
Look, we've got a camera with us.
Oh, God.
My dad was once accused of dogging,
but not even in the true sense of the word.
He was walking our dog.
And I think it was off its lead at one point.
It was like way out in the country just to cross a field.
And then when it crossed the field, he put it back on the lead.
And the landowner came out and was like,
excuse me, excuse me, what's that you're doing?
He was like, oh, sorry, what, what do you mean?
And he said, I saw you, I saw you in there.
And he was like, what?
Yeah, it's a public right of way.
He said, I saw you dogging,
dogging across my field.
And apparently it just, that man thought that dogging means walking a dog.
Oh, no.
Oh, I wonder how many people he said that to.
Yeah, I know.
Oh, my God.
Have you heard, there have been a couple of instances where I've heard people talk about
knowing someone who uses Buster Nut incorrectly.
Oh, no.
Like, when they're, when they're just like,
I'm so cross, I'm going to bust a nut.
And the prevailing advice is you must never correct this person ever.
They must continue to incorrectly say, bust a nut.
That's also just a cavalcade of shame of all the times they've said that.
Yeah.
So it's just, ignorance is bliss.
If you don't wash the dishes, I'm going to bust a nut.
Okay, ma'am, sorry.
God.
It's wonderful to meet you, Your Majesty.
We've been working really hard to get the first.
place ready for you i nearly busted a nut yeah i've been busting a nut getting this place ready for you
to get the walls painted oh no that's um we have a christmas you you bust a nut with a nutcracker
don't you do you do yeah nut busters out
anyway uh streamlabs.com forward slash poddiots donation three pounds or more to join pod squad
thank you so much to pod squad this week peter is question man or woman a woman uh i've got some
questions here from the people at home
Now, of course, the three of us have never spoken to each other before.
We're just getting to know each other.
We're very awkward.
I don't really feel comfortable around you.
So thankfully, Samuel at SB Music 98 on Twitter, has said,
What's your go-to joke for an icebreaker?
Oh, man.
Oh, wow, Jesus.
I've got a couple of answers to this.
One of them is an anecdote, which is that I was once in a,
I think it was our first seminar.
at uni and um before we started doing uh you know discussing academic stuff um with each other
despite the fact we'd never met each other the person who was running it was like why don't we
just you know go around and um just like introduce ourselves and stuff and say where we've come
from whatever and the circle was going around and we got to this guy and instead of saying hello my
name is, and I'm from this place. The first thing he did before he got to that was,
oh, do you guys, can I tell you guys a joke? And we're like, oh, yeah, yeah, go for it.
And it's still a bit awkward. And he goes, how much does a polar bear way? And there's a bit
of a pause. And he went, enough to break the ice. And everyone, everyone went, ah, ha, ha. And
you know, Dave was there. But there's something about that joke. I think he told it in the wrong
moment because everyone else had just gone around and said their name. So, you know, he could have
just done that. But I think I've used that joke once before, or since then, because not only is it
a joke, which inherently can just be an icebreaker, whether it's about breaking ice or not,
but because the punchline is also about breaking the ice, it's like it's got an extra layer
to it where everyone in the room can go, ah yes, we all know that we all felt very uncomfortable and
British in this situation and now we
don't. Ha ha ha ha.
So it's kind of a multi-purpose
one there.
But I've
I mean I've got
I've got a short joke and a long
joke that are my kind of go-to ones.
I don't know if they're necessarily
my icebreaker ones but just if someone said
tell me a joke.
I just pretend.
You're at a cousin's wedding.
I rock up. I'm a distant relative.
Distant relative.
You never met each other before.
Like how did you choose a name?
We've got no common grounds.
Oh, hey, Peter, yeah?
Yeah, hi.
Hey, how are you?
I'm okay.
Do you want to hear a joke?
Oh, yeah, I love jokes, yeah.
What's orange and sounds like a parrot?
A carrot.
I mean, that's the perfect joke for me, so yeah.
Big thumbs up.
Dave was also there at the party.
When do you go from there?
Watching it across the table.
He's not involved in the conversation,
but he just overhears the joke.
Just a very distant.
He's just snacking on some canapes in the corner.
Yeah.
Oh my God.
I'm a fan of that.
That's good.
That's silly.
Have you guys got Icebreaker jokes?
I'm a mess.
To be honest.
You're a mess.
You're a mess.
I'm a mess.
I feel like the first, like, well, even people I know a lot.
Like, just, I stumble over words a lot.
I just kind of, like, vomit on people with really bad, not bad words, just words.
And it's just like, I can't stop because if there's silence, that means it's bad.
It needs filling.
Yeah.
And I don't have go-to icebreakers, because every time it's different.
And the other day, I like left the house and there was someone knocking on my neighbor's door, like, pass.
I was like, hey, you're right.
And like, yeah, I'm playing post-person today.
I was like, oh, yeah, I think you've got a promising career and that.
Like, hey, yeah.
And I was like, you make a promising post-operative.
And then just silence for a couple seconds.
Bye.
Just carried on.
I just, what does post-operative even mean, Michael?
Why do you do this?
Why do you just say words?
Wow.
And I never saw that person again.
I'm quite glad.
They didn't deserve you, Michael, quite frankly.
No.
But, I mean, I don't know if anyone necessarily has.
apart from that guy from my seminar,
I don't think anyone has a go-to,
ice-breaker joke as such.
But if someone said to you, Mikey, tell me a joke,
do you have an answer for that, at least?
Do you have a joke?
Oh, my God.
A go-to joke.
I don't.
I heard a good one earlier.
Yeah.
What's a, what's,
I was going to repeat the carrot joke,
but I totally forgot.
You can't remember it.
Wow, are you a goldfish?
I genuinely am.
It's just like I say something,
and it just disappears, or someone else says something, disappears.
What's wrong?
Lillith, what's wrong with me?
And then this is this.
You see what I mean?
I'm like, I'm panicking and I'm just keep saying things.
Ben can fill the silence with his joke.
Yeah.
I kind of rather just let it linger and just sort of stare at you.
Oh, God.
I feel sick.
And then very quietly, just echoing from the other side of the room.
Ah, ha, ha, ha.
Cheers, Dave.
Thanks, Dave.
If you ever see me in public.
please don't, I mean, talk to me, but just be prepared from just absolutely nonsense to be spewed you.
Firm handshake, maintain eye contact. Ah, ha ha, ha, right to his face.
At my wedding, Mikey, I'm going to separate you from the table with Claudia, Ben,
all the Yogscast people who I'm inviting, and I'm just going to put you with, like, my uncles and grandmas,
and you'll have to just...
That'd be a good conversation, though, I think.
Tell the carrot joke over and over again.
Oh, God.
That would be quite fun. I'd love to see what.
happen there but it's your special day and I don't want everyone to leave the day
wholly uncomfortable please let me sit with the people I know I will I will thank you
oh dear I don't have an icebreaker joke but I do have a go-to joke yeah which I won't just
because I feel like the situation where you try to fill the silence with a joke that really
doesn't happen it's like that's a sitcom scenario that doesn't happen to real people I don't
think. At least it hasn't happened to me. But when we're, I don't know, doing hashtag content or,
you know, work stuff and I need to just come up with a joke. I always go to the same well every
time. We might have heard it then. You've definitely heard it. And that's what did the sand say,
what did the sea say to the sand? Oh yeah. Nothing. It just waved. It's good. That's it. That's the
joke. That is the joke. That is the joke I go to over and over again. And for some reason,
since I was in primary school, I've had committed to memory, despite the fact that I never
tell it anymore, an obscenely rude joke that's really long and has all sorts of twists and
turns and it really keeps you guessing until you drop the payload at the end. And for some
reason, it's just stuck with me. Until you bust a nut. Like I'm fixing to bust a nut, really keeping
it in. But yeah. Do you like rehearse it in your head or is it just like, is it just committed there
I can just tell it.
Like, it just, it just comes out.
Wow.
I just bust that nut.
God, I kind of want to know what it is now.
Yeah.
I mean, I could tell it.
It's not, it's just rude.
Like, it's not, it's not offensive, I don't think.
Well, I was about to say, I've got a rudish joke, which is one of my other go-to ones,
which is slightly longer.
And I've realized it's also parrot-related.
Yes.
Oh, wow.
Okay.
But you tell us yours.
I'm just giving you.
I'm telling you that I'm about to tell a rude joke,
so don't you feel bad about telling yours?
Okay, here we go.
I hope you are as impressed as I am
that I've managed to remember this for so long.
So there's a little boy,
and he hears his mum and his dad arguing,
and the dad calls the mum a bitch,
and the mum calls the dad a bastard.
They're like, they're fighting.
You know, they're just being nasty to each other.
And the little boy says,
what do those words mean?
And the mum says, oh, you know, bastardsards,
it's just, it just means,
it just means dad
and dad says the same
for mum basically
and then a bit later on
dad's upstairs shaving
and he cuts himself shaving
and he goes shit
and the little boy over here's
this could be a little girl as well
I don't know why I've gendered the child
but I have heard this joke
but I don't remember where it's going
I'm sure I've heard this before
so he cuts himself
and he goes shit and the little boy hears
and it's oh what does what does shit mean
He's like, oh, no, it's just a word for shaving.
I'm just shaving.
I'm like, okay.
And then his mom is stuffing the turkey, but I think she also cuts herself.
There's all sorts of injuries involved in this house.
This house sounds chaotic.
It cuts herself on the turkey somehow.
This child to be, yeah, just a really sharp bone.
And she's like, oh, fuck.
Or fucking hell or something like that.
It becomes relevant at the end.
And the little boy says, oh, what does that mean?
she said oh it just it's i just mean it's stuffing i'm stuffing the turkey that's that's what it means
i'm stuffing okay um and then i'm just remembering where this joke goes and i'm trying to decide
whether to abandon it uh i'm gonna go through with it you boys can decide whether or not it should
stay in listener discretion advised if it has even remained in okay it's not i still i don't think
it's offensive it's just childishly rude it's the kind of joke you would tell us that's fine
That's fine.
Then the little boy, he finds a condom.
It's not used to be very clear.
Just a condom.
Okay, good, good.
He's like, what's this?
And the parents are like, oh, no, it's just, it's a coat.
It's just, it's a coat.
That's where it's a coat.
Don't worry about that.
It's just a coat.
Perhaps this is where my memory is fading a bit regarding the joke.
You know, they're talking about a condom.
He's like, what's a condom?
It's like, oh, it's just another word for a kid.
Yeah, yeah.
Anyway, then the guests arrive for dinner.
There are guests, by the way.
Guests are arriving.
The little boy opens the door and he says,
Hello, bitch and bastard.
May I take your condoms?
Dad's upstairs shitting and mum's downstairs fucking the turkey.
Fantastic.
And that's the joke.
That's the really long, stupid, childish joke that I've remembered
since I was 10 years old.
That's fantastic.
Wow, that's it.
I mean, yeah, it's just, yeah, I enjoyed that.
It's bad.
It's not good.
but I've remembered it for a very long time, and I don't know why.
It's very good.
Hopefully that's silly forever.
That's one to tell the grandkids.
Yeah.
You can pass it down and go through generation.
Is it one to tell the grandkids?
Not your own kids.
Peter, what's your rude?
I might have even told this to you guys, if not even potentially on the podcast, I feel like.
But I don't know.
I'll tell it anyway.
So there's a man who is concerned that his wife may be having an effect.
fair um because he's sort of there are various things that have made him suspicious but he goes out
all day during the day and i'm sure she does too sometimes you know sure they're both holding down
jobs but this is a joke that's maybe 20 years old when minds weren't as open sadly uh but anyway
that's the situation and he decides oh yeah i don't want to like i don't like bug the room
Because, you know, if I'm wrong and she finds out and, oh, I don't, how am I going to do this?
How am I going to know if something's going on?
And he realizes, I know what I could do.
I could get a parrot that can talk.
And then when I come home at the end of the day, I can just ask the parrot what's gone on while I've been out.
So he does that.
He goes to the pet shop and he says, I need a parrot that can speak really well.
And the pet shop owner says, I've got one that is like perfect.
Like, it can speak, you know, every word in the English language.
It can recite Shakespeare.
There's only one problem, and I give you some discount.
It's got no legs.
And the man says, how does it hold on to its perch if it's got no legs?
And the Petropona says, well, he holds on with its penis.
Just curls its penis round the bar.
It's fine.
All right, fine, I'll take it, as long as it can talk.
So he takes the parrot home, and he puts it on a perch in the living room.
And he says, right, I'm off out to work now.
but just keep an eye out
and keep an eye out
on what's going on
and report back to me
at the end of the day.
The power is like,
yeah, no worries, have a good day.
So the mind gets home from work
at the end of the day
and the parrot is lying
on the bottom of its cage
on its back.
And he goes, what, are you okay?
What happened?
And he said, you were right,
you were right to be concerned,
you know, not long after you've gone out,
the milkman came round
and she opened the door for him.
And the man says,
oh yeah, then what happened?
And he says, well,
then the milkman started coming in
and they went over to the sofa
and the man says
well then what happened? And he said
well they started kissing and rubbing
hands on each other and oh it was
really getting quite and the man says
yeah then what happened? He said
they took each other's clothes off and your wife was all
naked and the milkman was naked and
oh they were all over the sofa
and he says then what happened
and the parrot says I don't know I got too excited
and I fell off my purse
oh for fuck sake
That is really silly.
Horrible image.
Good God.
Oh, wow.
I'm imagining this parrot
speaking like the parrot
off of Aladdin.
Yeah, Iago.
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
Christ.
Well, now that we've lost all our listeners,
we're with our extremely offensive jokes.
Shall we do a thing?
Yeah, maybe we should.
he's got a thing
I've got a thing
I've got a thing
go for it
here we
here we go
I want to thank
Connor Bennett
for bringing this
news story
this very important
news story
to our attention
at C Bennett
underscore 12
on Twittles
that's what it's called
and it's from
the Irish Examiner
and the headline reads
new pictures
show Wally the Walrus
relaxing on a small boat
in Crookhaven
Would you like to see him?
I'd love to see it.
Yes, please, absolutely.
Here is Wally.
Hopefully Discord will do.
There he is.
Wow.
What a boy.
Her name is Rio and she does.
He looks like he's on his way to get.
He's off to Monaco.
Yeah, exactly.
So that's Wally.
The subtitle, though, is actually the true thrust.
of this article. Wally the
walrus is set to get a floating
couch in an effort to prevent him from
sinking more boats.
Oh, lovely.
So Wally, Wally is too big
despite how brilliantly he fits
in that presumably several
person boat. He is
too big and he keeps sinking boats.
For context, as I'm sure the article will say,
this is the walrus that's been hanging
around British shores
over the past few months, right?
And Irish.
I will, I'll send you his, quote unquote, floating sofa as well, and then I'll read the article.
Oh, wow.
Oh, that is incredible.
It's an actual sofa.
So Billy's best mate, Wally, here we go.
Wally the Walrus continues to draw a crowd as new pictures posted to social media appears to show him relaxing in Crookhaven.
The images show the 800-kilogram male walrus, chilling out in a small pleasure craft in the harbor, enjoying the size.
of West Cork.
On Tuesday, the Irish examiner reported that Wally is set to get a floating couch
in an effort to prevent him from sinking more boats.
The Arctic walrus, who was first spotted off Kerry last March,
has spent the last two weeks cruising and feeding along the south-east and southern coast.
The juvenile...
He's a juvenile walrus and he's that big.
Whoa, he's a babby walrus.
Has left a trail of destruction in his wake
after hauling himself onto several small boats to rest,
causing thousands of euro worth of damage
and sinking at least two.
Warrishes, warruses like seals and sea lions are pinnipeds,
or semi-aquatic, which means they must come up on land or onto a floating object to rest.
His ponchon for lounging on boats prompted an appeal from Seal Rescue Ireland, SRI,
for the donation of an unused rib or a large pontoon that could be used as a designated hallout site for him to rest.
So whenever they spot him, basically the alarm.
Alarm goes, and they rush his sofa to roughly his coordinates and hope that he settles on that instead of a boat.
Imagine the fear of the people who have the boats in that arena.
They're probably got a WhatsApp group.
Oh shit.
Wally's here.
Amber alert.
Wally.
Get the couch.
Push it out.
SRA executive director, Melanie Crose.
I'm going to butcher some Irish names, and I'm really sorry.
It said they have also been liaison.
with British divers marine life rescue BDMLR in the UK
who helped install a floating pontoon for Wally
during his six-week stint in the Isle of Silly,
which makes it sound like he's just been on holiday, really,
in July on how best to respond.
Ms. Kroath said SRI has now secured a sturdy pontoon
with three raised sides, which looks like a floating couch.
It is ready to be deployed quickly
if there are more sightings of Wally in busy harbour areas over the coming days.
A boat owner who lost his...
vessel to Wally last week, used towels to gather the animals scent. Hang on, what? Use
towels to gather the animals sent before the boat sank. Oh, these towels have now been used to
scent the pontoon in the hope of encouraging Wally to use it when or if it is deployed.
Is used towels to gather the animals sent a sort of epithet for he soaked up the piss or something?
That could be it, or maybe he did boost a newt.
Yeah
But so he's
His boat is sinking in front of him
And like
He's like got to get the piss
Yeah got to get the towels
Gotta get this big lad's piss
Get it
As good as good as the story and photo is
Of Wally having a sofa
I cannot get over the fact
The other picture
Just looks like he owns a boat
And is passing by
It's Wally's boat
On the back it says Wally's boat
Fantastic
Yeah, anyway
It continues
And while this potential response
Would require close liaison
With the Coast Guard
Local authorities
Wildlife Marine or Port authorities
Miss Crose says
They have also secured the use of a disused
Rib which is more easily transported
And installed
SRI's responsible depend on where and when
Wally is next sighted
She said
We have never done this before
So there are lots of learnings as we go
We're getting assistance from BDML
are and we are working with Orca, Ireland, and the West Cork Animal Welfare Group.
But things have gone quiet over the weekend.
So we think, and this is my favourite bit, he's flying below the radar, which is good for now.
So there we are.
Wally has just been causing havoc.
If you happen to spot Wally, I don't know if we have any listeners in that area of the world,
but call the SRIs 247 our hotline on 087-195-3-393 to
report a Wally sighting.
Where's Wally is what they should have
put in. Where's Wally? Yeah, what the hell? Come on.
There we are. It's such a British slash Irish
slash kind of European thing where
you know, there are places in the world where you have
real issues with forest fires or like
snow like shuts down the entire country because it's like
12 feet deep or those animals that want to kill you.
You can't go swimming because of the Great Whites.
up here, our walrus
appears and it is absolute
carnage because of a single
walrus who is
just, we're just not prepared for it. We don't know
what to do about it, you know?
I love it.
All the emergency responses have
mobilized.
The community effort, we must build
this walrus a couch.
It's, is that, I don't, I mean, I guess it's better
than him just constantly going to other boats, but is
that just giving him a reason to stay in the area?
I mean, maybe he's, maybe he could become
like a wishing well
everyone throws coins
at him
oh god no
no no leave wally
do not throw coins at
Wally
please don't
do not approve
that message
but there we are
that's my thing
and I pray
that we get more
Wally News very soon
yeah
let's keep Wally Watch going
big fan
we've got a question
here from Shana
at Strange Penny 12
we know that one
we know that one
I hope you well
Shana
Shana says
which Pokemon
would you eat
for a starter
main and dessert
I'm going to have to pull up a
picture of I'm just going to choose
the original 151
because I don't even want to think about the others
okay I could rattle mine off right now
if I want to get super basic about it
and just sort of try and equate Pokemon
to their real life
inspirations
Taurus is surely one
Taurus is the main course yeah and that's a bull
have that for lunch
And then start a, maybe an oddish, some greens, you know.
Yeah, yeah.
And then for dessert, probably that fucking ice cream Pokemon that they've made now, which is stupid.
Yeah.
There we are.
Easy.
Easy.
I wouldn't mind for a starter.
What's the crab one called?
Craby?
Craby.
Yeah.
You could have some nice crabby patte or something.
Oh, crabby patte just sounds like
an upmarket sponge bob menu.
Yeah, it's delicious.
The secret recipe to the crabby patte.
Secret crabby patte formula.
I'd have ditto for dessert.
Oh, I was thinking, yeah, a big ball of jelly.
Quite tasty, yeah.
And then for the main,
I don't know, I mean, obviously Taurus is a good shout,
but I'm trying to think of something different.
Maybe,
what if I felt like a size.
duck.
Hoysen crispy
side duck I would have
in pancakes.
Oh, very good.
Yeah.
That'd be nice.
I think to start
I'm not going to eat
far-fetched,
but he comes
a far-fetched
just to steal his leak.
Yeah, I'm just going to steal his leak
and send him on his way.
Steal, Q-Bones bone,
just get a broth going.
Yeah.
Baby, you've got a stew going.
Oh, baby.
I think,
hmm, how poisonous
are these like poisonous
mushroom
Pokemon's
Pokemon's
Pokemon's
Pokemon?
You can
just go to
the
Pokemon
Centre
seemingly
there is
no death
apart from
when there
is death
conveniently
yeah
in the lavender
town
I'll
I'll take a
lovely
I have a
mushroom
vile plume
for my main
yeah
I'll tell you what
oh
I'm fancying
what else
what is take
what is
grimer
that's just
sludge
you don't want that
Yeah, that's, what do you call it, gruel, I think.
Yeah, I think it's like the, at the end of the day, they scrape down all the grills.
Yeah.
And then, they serve that the next day.
You don't want that.
You don't want that.
You do want that.
Oh, yum, yum.
Give me a grimer.
Oh, man, okay.
Why not just have mug at that point?
Yeah.
That's what he evolves into, the bigger grimer.
Oh, the crab Pokemon is literally called crabby.
I thought that was a joke.
Nope.
No, it's called crabby.
Nope.
That's it.
I could have chose cloister.
Wow, I really execute.
I could have had eggs.
It was execute.
Yeah, I was going to say that's an obvious one that we all missed.
Sorry.
Really, really.
I chose the shit end of this.
I panicked and just went for literal grime and gruel.
Just chopped the bulb off a bulbosol.
That's probably pretty good.
Tangela, it's bloody, it's spaghetti.
Oh, Tangela, yeah, yeah, just spaghetti.
Yeah, yeah.
What about a nice Voltorb gobstopper for dessert?
Oh, yeah.
It does have a tendency to only know the move self-destruct, though, so just be aware.
The never-lasting gobstop, it'll be.
Yes.
You only ever need one.
Yeah, that's true.
That's true.
There are actually a fair few Pokemon that are based on edible animals.
I mean, I guess most animals are edible, but, you know, ones that are typically eaten.
I mean, there's pidgy.
Some people eat pigeons.
Yeah, that's true.
There's, you know, if you fish, there's Magikarp and, you know, the like.
Could Diglitt theoretically be a potato or is it another kind of vegetable?
Yeah, it could be.
But we don't know what's on the other end of it.
That's the problem.
We don't.
Yeah.
Wow, I've never looked at, having all the Pokemon in front of me is a wild experience.
I've never looked at them this intently, but what a collection of lads and lasses.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, they're looking good.
could have a nice bit of um squid if you if you fancy it um i can't remember their names the two squiddy ones
tentacle yeah tentacle and tent to crawl yeah um yeah lots to choose from much to think about
much to think about i think even mew looks quite tasty as maybe a dessert like a sort of gummy mew
or something i'd eat a little pink by the size there's only one but i'd eat it yeah it's like the
one in the Simpsons, the special
gummy. Vino de Milo,
is that it? Yeah, that one.
Sorry, I just googled Pokemon Food.
What the fuck is.
Sorry, Ben, I just heard that
noise you made for Vino de Milo.
Oh, Bella.
Oh.
What have you found, Mikey?
Sorry, Mikey.
I just Google Pokemon Food, and there's a
horrifying image. I'll not describe it
until I've read the headline.
Pokemon fans appalled as
Food Network posts explicit image of
Pikachu being stuffed.
Oh.
Oh, God, okay.
It's exactly...
He is enjoying that, question mark?
It's...
Audio description.
It's like a paper-mache-looking Pikachu on his back screaming with his hands up,
while a man quite delicate...
Well, two people, it looks like, actually.
Insert a rod up his...
His... his... his... his... his... his... his... his... his... his... his... his... his... his... his... his... his... he's... he's...
Whoa, the finished product is so good
Hold on
Hold on, it gets better
Oh wow
So you say this is the food network
Is this edible?
Is this food?
What's he made out?
For more context
So the first part of the image is him being stuffed
And then the final result is him like
Screaming with anger
Being held up by some kind of contraption
Of yellow PVC pipe it looks like
Which has been up his bum
for stability, and on the end of his hands, it's just, it looks like little bits of dynamite
sparkling. I mean, I'd be inclined to add those to the thread so people know what we're talking
about. Yeah, we have to. I'll do that. Wow. They've got to see it. Wow. Wonderful. What, is that
cake? That must be cake. It might be cake, I guess, but geez. It does look like Papier-Mashe.
Bent hula hoop that's not round anymore. Why is he sat in that? It's all angrily.
I've, well, whatever show this is, I need to watch it now.
Yeah.
This week's episode of the Food Network Challenge.
That's why it's called.
How traumatized can we make children this week?
Would you like to hear my thing?
I would love to.
Please, before I continue to talk about this, this poor, poor Pikachu.
You may have heard about this.
I was shocked and appalled.
Google Street View for Loch Ness
brings up man's X-rated photo
Oh, oh dear
When Google Maps users went in search of Nessie
The Loch Ness Monster
This certainly wasn't what they had in mind
This is according to Ladd Bible
Who incidentally, I've just realised
Maybe I should have found a different write-up
Because I kind of don't want to support Ladd Bible
Given they doxed Paul Chuckel
Do you know about this?
It was mental
No, I didn't know
They reposted a video
Admittedly it was someone else
else's video but lad bible reposted it to a much wider audience of someone and paying the guy for the
video and paid the guy for it calling up paul chuckle on their phone i don't know if like maybe paul chuckle rang
some kind of service or goods business and they some and that's how they got his number but um it just
they were holding up their phone facetiming paul chuckle and while it was ringing it just had his mobile
number on the screen and that went out on lad bible and paul chuckle had to
change his number because he said he'd been getting phone calls and stuff and he was really old
that's not no yeah he was like don't know who shared my number but you know very cross about it
or something fucking lad bible but anyways too late i'm going to have to read this now but hey don't
don't go looking for this article read it somewhere else fuck lad bible yeah um an x-rated photo
of a naked man appearing in street view has got twitter users tittering
A man from London has got people in hysterics after making a shocking discovery on Google Maps.
He went searching for Nessy, the mythical monster, which is said to live at the bottom of Loch Ness in Scotland, sorry, Loch Ness.
But instead, was greeted by a photo of a man leaving nothing to the imagination.
Taking to Twitter to share what he'd found, he explained that if you search for Loch Ness in Google Maps, then switch to Street View, there's a surprise in store.
He posted to Twitter and said, public announcement.
Search Loch Ness in Google Maps and click on the street view.
I apologize in advance.
I'm now going to send the very censored image to you guys in Discord.
We're probably not adding this one.
Oh, wow.
What the fuck.
It's full frontal nudity, waist down.
What?
That image has been double censored and they've covered it up with a white bar and then also blurred the whole thing.
But they haven't blurred his nipples, which is disgusting.
revolting the male nipple hide it um so uh the article look at any more peter make it go
the article doesn't go in to some extra detail that i found out by looking around the hashtag um or like
the trend when this was trending okay so this just talks about like you know this image is on
there and people on twitter were disgusted if that's wish if that's nessy i would
wish we'd never found him replied one person disgusting what a flipping disgrace uh which one
he has put a naked photo on google her disgusting very pissed off yeah um so i found two tweets um on the trend
from spenge blob at spenge underscore blob who said i did some investigative journalism and i found
that he gets off on posting his nudes
to popular attractions on Google
such as Disney World
and an all-girls Japanese high school.
Oh my God, I forgot about that bit.
That's horrible.
He gets turned on by the high view counts
of the photos.
And there's another example
of him holding a selfie stick
and posing naked somewhere.
Oh, at a Victoria's Secret.
What a tyrant.
God. God.
And the second tweet
from Spenge Blob.
It says he also keeps a map
and a total view count.
And there's a screenshot of
what looks like it might be a Reddit post
saying a map of the places
I posted naked photos on Google Maps.
And then at the top it just says
where I post naked photos
and then there's a load of pins all over the world.
And then at the bottom it says
36,018,199
total Google views.
Good.
That's fucked up.
It's really fucked up because, you know, people...
Yes, okay, the internet sometimes has nudes on it and nudity,
but, you know, maybe just let people choose if that's what they want to go looking for
on, you know, perhaps a relevant website.
It's not for this man to decide when we get to see,
or more to the point, have to see, a naked will...
I'm just going to send the pictures to you
or what I'll do is I'll just send a tweet to you
because it's easier.
What an absolutely monster.
Jesus Christ.
I can't believe they've gotten through.
Surely with all of the bullshit
and hopes that we have to jump through on YouTube,
they would have some sort of AI screening
to like know if there was a lot of flesh in a photo, you know?
I've sent you a tweet.
Oh wow, yeah, there he is.
A link to his tweet.
So does he take, that photo looks like he's taken a naked photo of himself at the attraction?
Is that just photoshopped in for the purpose of the story?
I don't think they're all taken at the attractions, because if you scroll down, so there's a reply to that first tweet, which is Spenge Blob's second tweet, which shows his map.
and he's got photos all over the world
of, you know, pictures of being naked.
Like there's one on Madagascar,
one in the middle of Australia,
one in the middle of Russia.
So I'm guessing he doesn't go to the places,
which surely even that,
even putting aside the fact
that people can abuse this system
and put nudes on Google Maps,
surely Google, you would think
that they would require
to be some location data
on your photo?
Like, I could just take,
I could draw the Angel of the North,
on a B-a-MAT, take a photo of it and add it to Street View on Google Maps at the Angel
of the North, if I've one of those 360 cameras.
Like, why are they not checking this thing?
Right, it's time to abuse the system.
Let's upload a photo of Dave Benson-Philips at somewhere.
You ready for this?
At somewhere.
Yeah.
Should we all do it?
She'll choose a place.
Yeah, I'm going to go for Angel of the North because I think that's a good shout.
He is the angel of them.
He is our angel of the north.
Angel of the North.
So how do we do this?
Right, I'm at Angel of the North.
I'm just going to add the...
Is it just add a photo?
The map of the man's nudes to the thread.
I'm not going to add any of the nude photos,
but you guys won't struggle to find them at home.
If indeed you want to see them.
However, if you do search for the angel of the north,
I'm going to add the ball pit photo of Dave Benson Phillips.
Let's save image.
I'm going to choose a good and if I'm going to do it.
I've selected a company called Just Vans in Frome.
That is way too easy to share a photo.
What?
Yeah, I think I've just done it.
Yeah, you just literally drag and drop a photo and it's like, cool, it'll be there soon.
Wow, that's mental.
Anyway, yeah, I've just chose Just Vans, a business in Frome,
and I've uploaded the picture of Dave next to his van.
It's fantastic.
There's a lot of photos of the Angel of the North
I'm doing a lot of scrolling
but I'm just waiting for Dave and his
ball pit
hang on, still scrolling
God there's a lot of photos
I just want to make sure
There it is, it's there, it's already there
Wow, what the hell
that's so easy
Yeah, Dave's already on the, Jesus
That's fucking bonkers
That's absurdly easy
I'm about to add Dave holding a bucket of gunge
to Buckingham Palace
because he is our king
I think I've
picked a landmark that is too popular for photos
I'm I'm scrolling
Oh yeah mine might be the same
Still scrolling to get to the bottom of these photos
I've gone the opposite way
I've attacked a small business
Yeah you have
There is
There is he's not even near the bottom
I'll take a screenshot
Okay
So how do I
How do this
This is
This is fucking ridiculous
How broken this is
Right, here we go
Why don't we have like
A comp, oh we should have made it as a competition
See who can choose the one that survives the longest
And do like every episode we check in
To see how our Dave's are doing
How many views our Daves have got
There he is
At the Angel of the North
Fantastic
Can someone add that to the stretch?
For it for me, please.
Yeah, that's the best thing I've ever seen.
I wish I could provide details like just my uncle at the Angel of the North.
A great family fun day.
There was a ball pit and everything.
There he is.
I've changed my mind.
I know where I'm going to put Dave and I'll have it in just a moment.
I can't believe it's this.
It's just like when we edited the information for the Make My Meatface factory.
And just change the business information.
Suggest an edit.
Yeah.
It was like, okay, approved.
Why?
Suggest an edit.
Why has that been approved?
Why am I allowed to do that?
I was going to say,
it's not going to be long before we get banned from Google,
but if that guy can plaster his knob all over the world,
that's right?
This is nowhere near as damaging.
Just because we're whipping out our DBP everywhere,
it doesn't mean that we...
It's a cheeky Benson.
Have we just invented a new thing called Dave bombing?
Yeah.
You put like a relevant picture of Dave in a location.
photo
uploading
yeah I'm going to do it
I'm going to put him in the car park as well
done right
add this man to the car park
can't wait for this podcast episode
to come up with his evidence in a courtroom
it's going to happen
I love it thanks for sharing your photo
your photo will be public on Google Maps soon
contribute more it says
I don't like that
my photos had 10 views
how is that even it tells you how many views
your photos had
I'm scrolling
I'm doing a big scroll
trying to find my picture
be in there somewhere
it will be
oh god my bloody name's attached to that picture
yeah so's mine
so is fine
oh oh Jesus I've also
picked a popular site here
oh fucking out I'm just clicking through my profile
and like there's no reviews
there's two photos of Dave Benson Phillips
it's already had four views
the Angel of the North parking
and Angel of the North
actual Angel of the North
and then if you go
to the edits tab, it's the, it's the approved change for Feld Hoyer's food groups, GMBH.
What a legacy.
I just changed the category of their business.
Fuck me.
I picked a, we might have to move on while I'm scrolling down here to find mine because
there's just the same photo over and over again.
I can see, I mean, it's a highly photographed landmark, but.
Oh.
Big shout out, by the way, to the people who've left reviews from Poddiots for Feld Hoyer's food group.
Oh, really?
I'm just discovering me.
Yeah, Liam Pickles, five stars, meat.
Daniel Tribe, five stars, meat products.
Leather duck, five stars, Billy Babylonie.
Five stars, sausage boy, the best meat products to put your face on.
And five stars, Connor Bennett, the best meat products, don't forget to tell your friends.
Brilliant.
Well done, guys.
Oh my God, that's so good.
Oh, dude.
All from like six months ago.
Completely missed that.
I may never, I may never see Dave again.
He's somewhere in the ocean.
Dave's face, a very, a close-up of Dave's happy face
is now listed amongst one of thousands of images of Mount Rushmore.
And I really wanted to get a screenshot of Dave alongside four great presidents.
But he's just gone forever.
Oh, fucking hell.
I'll never find the image again.
This is brilliant.
I posit now that every episode where we post the Dave to Twitter,
we also add Dave to the same landmark every episode.
So we just slowly build a supply of Dave Benson Phillips photos on our landmark.
A Dave to base. Very good, yeah.
That's very good. I like that.
Yeah.
Do you think one day
James could be like
I'm in the family
I have a trip up north
what's the to do
and then he just sees himself
He's just going to see himself in a ball pin
I don't remember that
I've never been to the age of the north
I don't know if you'll find yours easily
Peter because I found mine by chance
and it wasn't at the bottom
it was just like halfway through
so I don't know
there were like different tabs on the left hand side
you could scroll between
and it was like your reviews
and photos and
right yeah and my photo
and stuff. Okay, well, I'll make sure it's on there, but I'll ask a question, in fact, as well
do next. Okay. So, you get to bring back, this is from L, sorry, at L is playing with underscores
on Twitter. You get to bring back one TV show from the dead. What is it? And why?
I've got a couple of potential answers. One more predictable than the other. I've talked before
about how frustrated I was
that the final season of Whitechapel
never got greenlit so I would bring that back
purely for selfish reasons
just because I want an end to that story
but putting that aside
I would bring back
Michael Barrymore's
kids say the funniest things
Oh my God, actually
Yes, yes, okay
I was wobbly there but now I'm on board
Which
which
was, I believe,
originally an American format
that was just imported.
Well, yeah, there's Bill Cosby in America.
Oh, God, it was, wasn't it?
Oh, no, I forgot about that.
Oh, no.
What is with that show and disgraced presenters?
I mean, there's different levels of disgraced,
but, you know, whatever.
Michael Barrymore,
I suppose innocent until proven guilty,
but weird stuff happened at his house
that is yet to be fully explained.
but that aside
I remember watching that show as a kid
and pre-controversy
I was a huge Michael Barrymore fan
I thought he was one of the best people on TV
you know he was a great host
it was very entertaining
and even putting him aside
that show was great
like they would just put three kids
on chairs on the stage
and they would literally just ask them questions
like you know
what does your mummy and daddy do
and what's your favorite thing in the world?
And the kids would just always come out with absolute gold.
I mean, presumably they filmed for about twice as long as any given episode
turned out to be post-edit.
But I remember finding that show really funny, even as a child.
So, you know, I think that would be great to bring back.
You know, Lizzie would have kids as young as like four or five on there.
and yeah just bait them into saying brilliant stuff
and I presume Pachiti has a suggestion box in the office
but I'm for seeing next Tuesday if he hasn't already
absolutely yeah absolutely needs to be amongst the roster wow
yeah yeah I forgot about that show yeah god
I think for my for my serious show like much like your Whitechapel
the one that I want a conclusion to is the UK version of Utopia
fucking yeah that was really good like
sci-fi series which got cut short
and it had so much potential
but they stripped it away
but if I wanted something just purely for enjoyment
I want a new series
of Takeshi's castle but that is just
basically exactly the same as you all do on
not overproduced not weird
just like just get Craig Charles back in the room
and get him laughing at some people falling over
I just want some more of that please thank you
I would love that and also just so I can have the chance
to have a go of the course
yeah
yeah that'd be a life for
dream come true uh i've got three uh two of which are comedies and parks and wreck is i think probably
my favorite television show ever and i think it's also got one of the strongest final seasons
of any show in that it wraps it up so nicely and so wonderfully that they should never ever touch it
again apart from the brief covid episode they did like everyone did last year where it's just all on zoom or
whatever um but still very selfishly i want all of the cast to come back and do new seasons you know
that would have been great to have them sort of react to Pokemon go in all the parks and like
why are all these people in the parks and stuff yeah that's good good show there's it was they were
just such an inherently likable bunch and there were so many brilliant characters and
supporting characters in that show that i just i wouldn't be sad if it went on forever but obviously it would
be diminishing returns and it would be terrible before too long. But I would, I would like that
to come back. Also, if they managed to get all of the cast back, community. Obviously,
Donald Glover is supremely successful outside of that now and he left a couple of seasons
before the end and then it sort of nose dived in quality to an extent. But if they could get to
sort of their season two, three, heyday when it was just sort of like peak television, peak
comedy television, very Dan Harmon, really, really good stuff.
I would love for that to still be going.
And my third option is a wrestling show, and that's Lucha Underground, which was
absolutely absurd, and it was set in this like grungy warehouse, and there was like a
dragon man and a man from the future who travelled through time, and it was really sort
of telenovela, like intentionally hokey with its special effects and stuff.
It was so stupid, but it was amazing, and I loved it.
And they did four seasons of it, and then it got cancelled.
Oh, wow.
And it was shot like a proper TV show, so it wasn't like wrestling, which just never ends.
It just goes on and on and on and on.
And I would love for that to come back, too.
So, yeah, there's a few.
That's the kind of wrestling that I could get involved in again.
Like, I quite liked, and I guess they still do it to an extent.
I don't know if they do it more or less, or maybe they don't still do it in kind of
wwe but when you know the notion that like one of the wrestlers is undead and you know like you know
one of them is like maybe i don't know like a time traveling pirate or something like stuff like that
i always thought was like no this is this is cool and like weird and stupid like if if you know
because i find wrestling a little bit it's it's silly and cheesy and a bit ridiculous and i kind of
feel like if it's going to be like that it should go it should come in all the way and it yeah
There should be like an alien in it and there should be, you know, a bit like, I guess that's partly
why I like Tekken.
Yeah, it's very Tekken.
It's sort of Mortal Kombat and Tekken, the TV show, Lucha Underground.
Yeah, I was going to say, most, probably most big fighting franchises do similar things in the gaming
world where you have like a bear or like a lizard and they're fighting.
Well, there is a lizard.
There's a lizard in it.
She's a person, but she wears a luchador mask and she is just, she's a lizard.
That's what she is.
That's what she's meant to be.
She's the lizard queen.
That's her.
Oh, it was so ridiculous.
It was so stupid.
The owner worked out of a little office right next to the ring
and would sometimes come out during matches and change the rules.
And his half-brother, who's a monster, who's sort of like bought from that episode of the Simpsons,
lives in the basement and he has a special key.
And he lets him out and he kills people.
And then he goes back in again.
It's so ridiculous.
It was brilliant.
I loved it very much.
You've very much sold me on this series.
I've got to say that...
Oh, you should look it up.
Lucha Underground is fantastic.
So good.
I heard it being talked about in the office from time to time,
and I just assumed it was...
Yeah, just a popular Mexican wrestling, pro wrestling show,
like basically just a BWE,
but kind of based in South America or Central America or something.
So I just assumed it was relatively straight,
but just with Luchadors in it.
But, yeah, it sounds good.
Very hammy, very over the top.
It's good stuff.
Recommend it.
I've been scrolling for fucking ages.
Still going.
On the latest photos of Mount Rushmore,
Dave is not there,
but I've checked Google,
and my contributions to Google
in the photos tab
are a photo of Dave Benson Phillips
to Mount Rushmore.
So...
Nice, it is there.
If anyone can find Dave
in the photos of Mount Rushmore
and send us a screenshot
of him amongst other photos
of Mount Rushmore,
I'd be very pleased.
There's pictures of...
You can see other people
who've abused this
to a lesser extent
where they've just put
like their Lego
build of Mount Rushmore
into the photos.
But I could scroll all day
and seemingly
he's not in the
quote unquote
latest photos
so I don't know
I don't know what's going on.
Dave Graham Lincoln.
Yes.
Someone's put a photo
of Donald Trump
just a photo of Donald Trump
as in I guess they're saying
that he should be carved into it as well.
Well, didn't Trump ask about that?
Apparently that was a story.
Yeah, he's like quietly asked like, yeah.
Can we add another face to the mountain?
Yeah.
What a bell end.
I'm going to have to stop scrolling because every time I scroll,
I'm thinking I'm going to have to make sure I edit the scrolling noise out of the podcast.
And the more the more I scroll, the, uh,
what if you, like, you just send meters away from Benson?
If you stop now, you'll never see it.
That could be. That's the thing.
I'm holding my mouth.
my mouth, my mouse away from my microphone, but...
To hear a creaking away in the background.
Where is he?
Google says he's on there, but he's just not.
He's in there somewhere.
We'll find it.
We'll find him.
We best move on, I'm afraid, but, man, I'm going to give up.
Is it Mikey's turn?
It is my turn.
You find yourself cleaning out the basement of an old British army base, and you cross...
You cross? Yes.
Good job, Michael.
First line in you're nailing it.
And you come across an ancient, dusty film reel.
You hook it up.
The projector, words to life.
That's the noise.
Warm it up.
On 1,000 tastepost.
Vanilla.
Cream.
That's a 10.
That's a 10.
Sorry, Michael.
The projector, words to life,
and grainy old black and white images
begin to play in front of you.
And the narrator explains how a drug was given
to the Royal Marine Commandos
in a cup of water
25 minutes later
the first effects of the drug
became apparent
welcome to the true tale
of when the British army
toyed around with giving unsuspecting men
a mind-altering chemical
namely LSD
is this
the story that those
sort of gifts
slash videos came out of
where it's just
men just
they can't
cannot. They just cannot, I can't even think of the word. They can't control themselves. Yeah,
they can't soldier. They're just sort of like laughing hysterically. Oh yeah. Playing with their
helmets. Not like that. Just sort of being quite daft. Yeah, this is exactly. It's quite a famous
video and I've seen clips of it. But sitting down and watching the full 15 minute thing is an
experience and it's even better like once you realize just how true it all is and kind of just the full
story surrounding it and how bonkers it is. So come with me on a drug-induced adventure, boys.
Do we have to take drugs to be on the adventure? Well, you'll find it's already been added to your
water, so you should stop. Oh, no, no, I can't soldier. So this black and white footage from
1964 shows the usually ferociously well-driven servicemen, well-drilled servicemen,
and I apologise, lying flat on their backs, helpless with laughter or staggering against trees,
intoxicated by the hilarity of the whole situation, and of course also intoxicated by the acid.
These experiments gave a whole new meaning to the war on drugs.
The narrator proclaims, it's a very cutesy, like classic,
And the boys, they went out, and in 50, it's that kind of voice.
Yeah, some British path.
British path.
One hour in 10 minutes after taking the drug.
I'm not going to do the accent.
With one man climbing a tree to feed the birds,
the troop commander gave up,
admitting he could no longer control himself nor his men.
He himself then relapsed into laughter.
That's a taste of what...
These men weren't armed, were they?
We'll get into that.
Oh, fucking hell.
This field exercise conducted by the government's secret
porting down chemical weapons research establishment
was the first in a series that would end in failure.
It was about a half a century ago now that the military's experimentation with acid
ended with the chairman of the Chemical Defense Advisory Board
declaring that the idea of using LSD as a weapon of war was more, quote,
more magical than scientific.
This example was one in a series of quite nefarious experiments
with the mind-altering chemical, lysurgic, acid, diathlonide.
There you go, you learn something as well. That's what LSD means.
Look at that.
I've already forgotten it, though.
Me.
In the early 1950s, they had explored the possibility of administering LSD in interrogations as a truth drug.
British servicemen were allegedly asked if they would volunteer to help with research into finding a cure for the common cold.
Then it was later claimed that they were given LSD, which is, wowie, what a sucker punch that is.
Drink this water, it'll take your sore throat away.
There you go. You'll be all right.
By the early 1960s, Port and Down had the same interest in nerve agents.
but the focus on LSD had shifted from its potential use as a truth drug to a means of incapacitating the enemy.
The hope was that LSD and other such chemical weapons could produce a, quote, humane type of warfare, which...
I mean, it's right when going around tripping up balls trying to feed the birds.
It definitely changes the vibe of the battlefield.
They tried all sorts of things during these trials.
In 1962, the British noted that their American counterparts were,
exploring the possibility of weaponising cannabis to make it a battlefielding capacity.
I'd like to see that. Everyone just has a good time and has a few crisps.
That would be very down. Yeah, I'll sit down. I'm too tired. Just pass the Pringles. It'd be all right.
And so, on Tuesday, December 1st, 1964, 17 volunteers from the 41st Royal Marine Commando
were given water containing 200 micrograms of LSD. I've got no idea what that means.
assume that's a good amount.
There would eventually be...
That's a lot of tiny, tiny amount.
I'm assuming that wouldn't be two grams, would it?
No, two micrograms.
It's like, what is a microgram?
That's tiny, tiny.
Yeah, it's very tiny.
I just Google it and it says it's really small.
The Google image results,
you can't even see it.
There would eventually be three such field exercises.
Someone at Porton Down had the sense of humor
to recognize that the letter's LSD
were also the pre-decimal symbols for pounds, shillings and pence.
Hence the codenames, money bags, recount and small change.
Money bags.
I think it's very cheap.
Hey, they're good code names.
Leave them alone.
Money bags, the December 1964 exercise, was the first.
For the sake of safety, the troops didn't handle any live animation during the exercise.
You'll be glad to know, Ben.
Okay.
So it was all safe.
It was essentially, yeah, it's a fake scenario.
They're instructed to act as realistically as possible.
Just pretend it's an actual procedure as training missions tend to go.
The 17 Marines were tasked with capturing as many terrorists as possible
and hunting for hidden stores during a training exercise.
There was an initial control group who performed their duties with great skill
exactly as they were trained to do.
And so with the first group passing with flying colours,
it was time for the the trippers to come out the second day the exercise was when things started
to get interesting after drinking a very out of tune like trumpet like the trumpet player is high
as fuck and he's trying desperately to play that laughing through the trumpet and here they come
I'm shambling out actually that's where the first grateful dead album came from it was a military
man on the trumpet who just freestyled it.
it and invented the whole new juggie music.
Take that Grateful Dead.
Fucking unexpected slam from Michael Johnson.
Grateful Dead, whoa, Grateful Dead are known for their LSD influence.
It's a compliment, if anything.
Is it?
Probably not.
I don't know.
I don't know.
As long as it doesn't sound like an out-of-tune trumpet, then that's why.
No, it's not.
It's a lovely little group of hillbilly hippies.
He's having a lovely sing-thong.
Anyway, anyway.
After drinking their LSD, the Marines headed to Port and Down
for a small-scale field exercise in which they were hunting the six terrorists.
As you could guess...
That's a really bad start to any sentence or story.
After drinking their LSD, the Marines went to the nearby town to hunt terrorists.
I can only go badly.
Oh, God.
They captured six squirrels.
They interrogated them for hours.
It was a nightmare.
As you could guess, it did not.
proceed with the normal military efficiency.
Things started off relatively normal.
The men proceeded with their mission and made ground towards their objectives.
They did so with great skill, using everything they had learned through their years of training.
So, like, they're going through the fields, like the spread out as not to, you know, be an easy
target.
They're ducking undercover and, like, you know, every once in a while stopping to get, like, a glance
at what's ahead of them, you know, just doing it as you should in a battlefield scenario.
The sober narrator explains, at 1140.
the first effects of the drug make their appearance and as a result two marines are reported to the troop
commander for insubordination. The men at this time were completely unaware that their behavior
was due to the drug. So a little bit into the mission, some men start acting a bit weird and the
commander's like, well lads, calm down, come on, get it together. The commander at this point,
also under the influence of the drug. The troops push on, but now with a complete lack of urgency to
their actions, just giggling the entire way, not bothering to take cover, just kind of meandering
through this field. At this point, the scene is more reminiscent of a lovely walk through the woods
as opposed to a finely tuned military mission. As they proceed, suddenly they come under, quote
and quote, enemy fire from a distant combatant. So over in the distance, there's this little shed
kind of structure and blanks are being fired towards the men. The men jump to the floor for cover,
still continuing to giggle all the while
the umpire ruled that the radio operator of the group
had been killed by the fire and thus left the mission
not that he was much use at this point anyway
as he was rendered completely unable to operate his equipment
in his current state so one man down
they were tasked then with decommissioning
the enemy combatants and so
the rocket launcher team was deployed
oh one man right okay
So, yeah, I think they signal back and get the rocket boys on the goal.
And at this point, the documentary cuts to footage of two men fumbling around with a rocket launcher,
like struggling to even pick up the weapon, eventually gets on his shoulder, and it's just rocking everywhere.
Like, it's completely the uses at this point.
And they're both just, again, smirking and giggling to themselves this entire time while holding this massive weapon.
And so it's established that they're completely incapable of carrying out this task as well.
At this point, it's all kind of gone to shit.
There's a lull in the battle.
And the men simply just begin hanging around in the trees, laughing, having a nice time with each other.
Suddenly, a flashbang is deployed amongst the men.
But only one soldier responds sufficiently to capture the combatant.
The others don't really do anything, despite literally being so close to an enemy.
They just kind of stand around and look around.
around, like, what's just happened? One man slowly staggers towards, like, a bit of the trees
trying to find out where this has come from, and no one else really gives a crap of what's going
on. With that, um, combatant captured, the men attempt to carry on and try to navigate to the next
objective. At this point, the next objective is a mere 700 yards away from their current position,
and this is in the middle of a wide open country field. So theoretically, this is home run, easy
navigation. But they are so disoriented that they're incapable of figuring out the map
and so begin arguing them on to each other trying to figure out where exactly is they're
located on the map. And look at this with the lens of these are highly trained military people.
Yeah, yeah. The picture of a group of men pointing at a map going, no, no, no, we're here.
No, no, that's ridiculous. We're here while in the middle of a wide open field is quite amazing.
a lot of men at this point
have no clear objective
the commanders have no idea what they're doing
and soldiers continue to line the floor
and giggle profusely
at this point the film pans
to a prone giggling marine
to an almost destroyed tree trunk
one soldier had almost managed
to fell a tree using just his spade
and it's not made clear
if this was part of the mission
or if he just did it for fun
but it's quite impressive
the commander at this point
deems himself incapable of controlling
his men and steps down from his position.
And the rest of the men just try and fob off this duty amongst each other, basically going,
no, I'm not doing it, you do it, you do it for a couple of minutes.
And while the men are here gathered arguing amongst each other, an enemy combatant just
simply walks right past them completely undetected.
Fucking hell.
Just 70 minutes into the mission, with one man up a tree and the troop commander helpless,
they just give up on the mission entirely.
the men now without any objectives and no mission
and just simply awaiting transport back to the base
just allow the drug to take hold
and can be seen rolling around on the floor, giggling,
having a great time
and vehicles arrive to collect the men
but at this point reality was so distorted
that some of the men were just completely unwilling
to go near the vehicles and enter them
I guess
you're in the middle of a forest and this big van comes up
and you're not doing that
and you're on LSD
it's a mad experience
but eventually
they all get them in
they heard them together
and they return to the base
at this point
they're just casually sitting around
discussing the effects
kind of enjoying it
but the commander
tries to rein the men in
tries to get a bit of order going on
but is instead just faced
with laughter from the troops
and one of the men even responds
you're joking
I think he asked them
everyone stand to attention
at the side of your beds
and everyone just kind of continues
lie they're like
joking on you're bugger off
in another room
the troop commander
is experiencing
one of the
characteristic effects
of the drug
everything he looks at
appears to be patterned
while looking at the white ceiling
he describes geometrical patterns
which are coloured
and three dimensional
they appear to move in and out of each other
and there's a little clip of him describing this
and he just stood there like swaying
just like with his hands going
like moving his hands back and forth
trying to replicate the motion
it's absolutely mental to see
one soldier who seemed to be in the throes
of a bad trip was completely divorced from morality
Even now, three and a half hours after the administration of the drug,
he does not know what he is doing or where he is.
The Marine can be heard telling the medical observers,
no, I've not died, mate.
Back in 1964, the obvious incapacitation of the Marine
seems to have been considered an encouraging start.
So, I mean, if you want to tranquilize soldiers,
it seems like a very good way to do it.
It is effective.
Sadly, there was some concerns.
After this experiment, recreational use of the drug was completely banned in the UK,
and they considered delaying more trials with the drug until more was known about the long-term effects.
The committee also noted,
disconcerting results in one particular case of multiple self-administration and concern over possible addiction.
Presumably, one of the port-and-down scientists had grown rather fond of the laboratory stock
and made a name for himself as just sampling the product.
Wow.
but the needs of humane warfare
seemed to have come first.
With all this in mind,
they just carried on with more experiments.
But sadly,
all of them kind of finished with the same results.
Well, not sadly.
It went well over and over again.
So theoretically it could have worked,
but they came into issues
with how you actually administer the drug
on a battlefield,
because you can't exactly go to the enemy
and say, here, have a glass of water.
Yeah, I didn't wonder what the plan was there.
Like, if this turned out to be a good thing
to use?
Like, what do you do?
You know, how do you get that in there?
So they attempted, at some point,
to deliver the drug in like a chemical gas cloud.
Right.
But there's the sheer amount of the drug
that you need to make that work is like,
if it even works, it's going to be,
it's going to mess someone up for a long time.
And it's like chances of your own men inhaling it.
We're pretty high.
And at this point, they just thought, nap.
Screw this.
Not worth the effort.
And let me see.
they're just totally, totally canned everything from there,
deciding completely unable to use this in a battlefield,
which probably is for the best.
So at this point, the right decision was made in 1968
to cut the trial short,
citing the notion of an incapacitator
is a little more magical than scientific.
But there are evidence there, it's all you can say.
But thus marks the end of LSD's time
as part of the British Army's arsenal.
Thankfully, the British Army's experimentation
with the drug was a lot more innocuous than the
American Americans during
MK Ultra. They did some bat shit
insane stuff for the drug. So just like
poisoning water supplies with it.
Well, they were looking into
like psychic
stuff, mind control, weren't they?
Partly via
drug administration and stuff.
But yeah, that's really weird
stuff there. Yeah, thankfully
the British just gave it to some soldiers in a field
and let them plod around for a bit and decided
that's not worth it. Yeah, I
After this, the British Army decided the experimenting was best left to the hippies.
There you go.
I highly recommend watching the video.
It is hilarious seeing it in full context.
If you just Google British Army LSD, that will come up.
I remember reading a study when I was doing psychology about it was, I think the whole point,
the reason that we learned about it is because it was just like someone had just done something
and called it an experiment, but it was like, what was the point of this?
were you doing and they gave LSD to an elephant oh god yeah but they gave it even when you account
for the size difference between a human and an elephant they gave it the equivalent amount of LSD
that was a hundred times the dose you would have given like if you convert it into a human so
the amount they gave to the elephant would be the equivalent of giving a human a hundred times
the regular dose and that the elephant just like went like really crazy for a very brief time
and then it just, I think it just like had a heart attack and died.
And it's like, okay, what have you learned there?
What, hello?
What were you doing?
What were you doing?
What were you doing to this expecting?
Yeah.
Maybe it could have increased brainpower of the elephants.
Yeah.
Sadly, that's not how it works.
Well, it's time for our final question.
Thank you, Michael, for that.
Thank you, boys.
Ridiculous.
I feel like we've not had this question before, but I've got a backup in case we have.
Foxy-noxie at Shawnee,
score on Twitter, it says,
what's your favourite holiday memory
or strangest experience
whilst there on holiday,
presumably? Have we, we? We've not done that
before, have we? I don't think.
I don't think so. We might have done, like, where's the best
place you've been, but in terms of specific
memories, do you have any fond or
strange holiday memories?
I've got a very weird
thing that happened to me
in San Francisco, which,
again, we've been doing this podcast for too long
to the point where I think every anecdote has
been told, but I will tell this again in case I've not told you guys it before. So we were in
San Francisco and there is a bit of an issue in San Francisco with homelessness and mental
health issues and drug abuse and things like that. It's kind of a well-known thing that it affects
the city quite badly. So you do see quite a lot of people wandering around who clearly are in need of
some help but a really strange thing happened to us where me and all my family were there
years and years ago, I was about 13 and we were walking through Golden Gate Park and I was
hanging slightly back behind the rest of my family and as I'm walking along this guy walks past me
very very briskly he's this really tall guy who was like 6-2 really thin and he looked like he
was on an absolute mission and he had a white lab coat on
but I noticed that underneath his lab coat
he seemed to be wearing pajamas and slippers
so I was like right
where is this man from
why is he in pyjamas
but he's got like a doctor's coat on
you know what's going on here
and as he passed me
he reached into the top pocket
of his lab coat
he grabbed a handful of single
dollar bills and threw them into the air
and they went all over the floor
and then he absolutely like
legged it past my family
and I was actually
I reacted quite
in a
well let's just say I might not
react the same way now
but I was like
oh oh mom stop that man
he just dropped his money
as though like
I was like oh this man just dropped a load of money
stop him stop him
and I started gathering up all this money
but he just like got out of there
as soon as he could
so then we had all this money
all this cash and for a minute
my parents were like
is this
could this be laced with something
like what is what was that man doing
but in the end we just
we took it and we went and had
we went to like the
the Japanese gardens I think they were
it's a long time ago now
and we just had like green tea
in the Japanese gardens on that man
I mean let's face it
what I'm getting at is he looked like he'd escaped
from some sort of institution
by stealing someone's jacket
but I don't know
what was going on
Yeah. That was pretty weird.
How strange. I've got a similar-ish thing, not a man throwing money,
but we used to go on holiday and do the, I don't know if you're familiar with a key camp.
No.
Which is like a brand of sort of package holidays that you can do in France,
perhaps other places in Europe as well, but we used to do them in France.
I've done similar things. We went to sunsites.
Oh, yeah, that does sound very similar.
Yeah, and you just stay in a big tent.
Is that it?
It's like all set up.
Oh, ours were like static caravans.
Oh, right.
Okay.
But yeah, there was like a kids club.
Yeah, I went to the kids club.
So your parents could relax.
Yeah.
You had to go and do shit.
Exactly.
It was just sort of like, yeah.
They were like big tents that you could stay in.
They had like a big sort of kitcheny communal area.
And then there were separate compartments for people to sleep in.
So it was quite exciting.
I think it was quite a cost effective holiday as well.
and we used to get the ferry over and drive, and my dad would drive us.
And one of the times, or perhaps a few of them, maybe,
but certainly on one of the occasions that we had an issue with the car,
it was like a knackard old Volvo,
and the immobilizer on the locks used to play up from time to time,
where it would just lock you out.
And you just sort of had to wait for the car to calm down,
and then you could get back in.
And I distinctly remember one time
While we were waiting for our ferry
We were in Calais
And we'd gotten something to eat
And we were parked near the sea
Just so we could, you know
We had a view of some kind
And the immobilizers fucked up
And we were we were sort of stranded there
With our ferry crossing impending
Unable to get back into the car
Because the immobilizer was just like
No no you're not getting in
You've got to wait
I think my sister cried.
It was all very stressful.
Oh, no.
But we did, we did manage to get there, to get the ferry in the end.
But that was, that's a memory that stuck with me is, is being temporarily marooned in Calais
because our old Volvo just, um, just locked us out.
Wow.
Wouldn't let us in.
That was a thing that could happen.
That is kind of horrifying, isn't it?
Yeah.
Didn't know if it would let us in.
This isn't a particularly like weird and wacky one, but it definitely took me by surprise
It was a lot of fun.
As then when me and Claudia were in Singapore, we're visiting her sister and her boyfriend.
And I think it was on like our last night in Singapore, like a last full proper day to enjoy it.
So we'd gone out for a meal, we're out for drinks.
It was getting late in the night.
It's right, right, let's get a taxi home.
And so we sit there for about five minutes and then suddenly just this van pulls up.
Basically, like a pimped out transit van is the best way I could describe it.
The door slides open.
it just reveals this neon bath party zone in the back of a van.
So there's like speakers playing with music.
The van had neon lights underneath there.
It's like lights spinning everywhere.
I think there was some like fog rolling out as well.
And I like, and it just turned to us like, right, this is the ride.
Get in.
It turns out in Singapore, there's a thing called like party buses, which essentially operate
like taxis and you can just hire them to drive your round places.
And you get in the back and it is just like a mobile party.
They've got like a sound system.
You can choose any song you want to play.
It'll get blast at the loudest volume.
The best bit was the driver serves drinks while he's driving.
What?
So you just sit, could we have some vodka please?
And you pour out a couple of shots for you, hand them back.
And you carry, just carry you on driving.
And you're there, sing your heart out to the Venga boys drinking vodka in the back of a pimped out transit.
And that's amazing.
We got there and one piece.
It was a wonderful, wonderful time.
That's brilliant.
I think we do that in the UK.
now you can hire party buses
What? Oh my
wait
I don't think they just drive around
Yeah I don't think they serve you
The driver serves you drinks
And the driver doesn't serve you drinks
But people I've seen on like on TV and stuff
I don't know like I don't know where I would have seen it
But people
You hire a bus
It's got like a basically a disco inside it
Disco you know
A club
Disco yes
We're going out for a disco on Saturday
Yeah
And yeah there's like
There's music and lights, and there probably are drinks there,
but I don't think the driver serves them to you while you're driving along.
That seems insane.
I overtook one, leaving Gateshead.
Oh, yeah.
Well, really?
Yeah, yeah.
It's just a van that just said party van on the side.
Oh, yeah, look at that.
That's incredible.
Oh, God, yeah.
Yeah, I guess the difference in Singapore is that these just operate like taxis.
Like, they'll just park up outside of, like, popular areas just waiting to pay people up.
That's great.
There's like a whole army of them.
It is absolutely amazing.
Wow.
Incredible.
Well, there we are.
That's the podcast.
Would you like to know what came out on Vidiots

In 2007, after the PS3 and Xbox 360 had launched, British C-List celebrity, Keith Cheggwin released a quiz game for PS2.
Oh, God.
I think that's generous.
I think he's D-List.
He's not really C-List.

Mikey, where can people find you?
At Parrot Boy on Twitter is the best place to find me
in all of my shenanigans.
That's about it, really.
and I stream on occasion on Twitch as well, Paraboy there as well.
I recently watched the entirety of Shrek the musical there,
and it was very good,
and my channel hasn't been wiped from the internet with a DMCA strike by magic.
Go check it out.
That's good, good stuff.
And Peter, where can people find us?
We are as a duo at Team Triple Jump on Twitter and Facebook,
but also, of course, Twitch and YouTube.
That's where the content goes out.
Incidentally, I'll just take this moment to say,
if you're a triple jump fan and you've not followed us on Facebook yet,
please go and do that.
I know it's not the right channel to tell you to do that, but please do.
But individually, I am that Peter Austin on Twitter and Instagram, actually,
and Ben is Confused underscore dude on Twitter.
Mm-hmm.
Why not leave us an iTunes review or a review slash rating on your platform of choice
to help something to do with Al Gore's rhythms?
Thank you so much for listening, everyone.
Do we have a final question for people at home?
Can we just task people with Dave bombing some places?
It might become a dangerous epidemic,
but I just kind of want to see him spread around the world a little bit.
Five people have seen my Dave Mount Rushmore photo,
but not me. I'm not one of them.
Yeah, it's gone up.
It's climbing.
It's getting there.
Mine's still at one view, I guess,
because it's such an obscure thing.
It'll take up eventually.
Just the business owner like, what the fuck?
Maybe we request that Pod Squad
Donators for next episode
Their name is telling us where Dave's been
Like Dave has been to the Eiffel Tower
Etc
That'll be cute
Yeah, let's take Dave on a holiday
Tell us where you took Dave
Like when you borrow the like
The class mascot
And you go on holiday with it and you take photos with like
The Bear
And it's like, oh, the bear went to San Francisco
Look, here's photos of the bear.
We had a frog and he was called Phileas Frog
You know, like around the world in 80 days
It was great
Very cute
Fantastic
So you're suggesting these people do
Do a Dave bombing
And then stick the thing in their name
Yes
So two bits of homework this week
Two bits of homework everyone
Or just do a Dave bomb in your own time
Yeah
Whatever
Okay thanks so much for listening everybody
We'll see you next time
Look after yourselves
Bye
Bye
Bye
Bye.
