This is a HeadGum Original.
Get the Angel Reef Special at McDonald's now.
Let's break it down.
My favorite barbecue sauce, American cheese, crispy bacon, pickles, onions, and a sesame seed bun, of course.
And don't forget the fries and a drink.
Sound good?
At participating restaurants for a limited time.
That theme song was so threatening.
That was like the song from Insidious.
That song is chasing me somehow.
That song is chasing me somehow.
I don't want to have sex after that.
That came in from Nico.
Shout out, Nico.
He wanted to plug his Spotify and Apple Music,
which is Nico underscore Rush,
and his Instagram at rush.icon.
He has an album called Wait coming out on August 8th.
Oh, Nico, is it just this song 12 times?
We'd have to wait for an email response to get an answer to that, obviously.
No, Nico, you know, y'all,
I love all these theme song submissions.
And if that one gives me night terrors, then it gives me night terrors.
I'm open to any experience and I'm humbled and I'm honored.
Are you?
You're smiling, which is very humble.
But enough about Nico, right?
Because he had his time.
And now we have two guests that I couldn't be more excited
about. We're talking to Max
and Yvonne from Sound
Deals. Hello. Hi, guys.
Headcum's newest podcast,
Acquisition, right? You guys have been doing it for years.
Absolutely. Acquisition is right. There was
a vast merger in the podcast
space.
There was a bidding war.
There was a huge bidding war
a Dutch auction
and
Headcum lost
yes Headcum unfortunately lost
yes
it was a bidding war
to see who would get stuck
with you guys
you might have read
the deadline article
perplexed executives
fight to
not have sound deals
on their roster
this is Succession
season 3
this is it
holy shit
it was
because we're English
it was due to a time difference thing
Jake and Amir were asleep
they woke up
they discovered that
Sound Deals
was irrevocably
welded
contractually
inbox flooded
yeah
they're furious
they are understandably
and rightly furious
about the whole thing
yeah
but there really is nothing
that can be done
we are indeed
part of
yeah
we have brought Sound Deals to HeadGum by hook or by crook and we're delighted to be here
delighted to be part of the extended family it's a wonderful place of course 100 now you're fitting
in already i heard you guys as if i were you episode and it was very funny i was laughing
out loud for the time oh thank you for tuning into that you guys american accents or i don't
know which one of you did it or both of you you did it, but it was pretty good. Oh, thanks, bro.
I think it was, I think maybe both of us
gave it a shot. I think we tried. Yeah, we both
gave it a go, you know.
No! That's not fair!
You can't do that. You already have
the better accent. That's so fucked
up, you guys. That's so
fucked up, you chavs.
Chavs as well.
Absolutely. Shout out to 2006. no bruv no bruv we still
do bruv lovely stuff it's a great it's a joy to i haven't heard chav for a while actually what an
absolute pub of a time is that having an absolute have you guys how far do you guys live from
groves in the square genuinely we can basically see groves in the square from our window
where we work in an almost comically dickensian part of london which is mainly
uh appropriated by like uh private bankers and hedge fund financiers and people who are so rich
that they open up small like art galleries via which to launder their money. And embassies. We're in Embassy Town. Sure.
We are.
We're kind of converting it into double act comedy town.
Reflying the double act flag.
Yes, indeed.
Yeah.
You guys do look like you're in some kind of elementary school classroom.
With a whiteboard.
Yeah.
Almost like a calendar behind you.
Absolutely.
Yeah, we do indeed.
Yeah, that's
evan's hand-drawn calendar that's that oh yeah every time we think of a joke it goes on the grid
beautiful beautiful it's quite empty it's quite an empty grid
a little little visual bag to the podcast listeners there think think i think i've mastered
this medium of course well that's that's some some of our favorite. We do a lot of physical comedy as well on this show,
which translates really, really well.
But enough about our show.
Let's talk about Sound Deals for a minute.
Because Sound Deals, I was listening to it this morning
while I made my coffee.
And it is so fun.
It is so silly.
You guys, congratulations on being
the world's first um podcast shopping network
happily thank you thank you for listening to it the system works can you guys talk a little bit
more about your about your show we're going to be guests on every one of our listeners podcasts
oh if that's what it's the system right if you think we're above that we we will do it we will
we will put in the hours i mean luckily there everyone does have a podcast yes
at this point in the world um it is yes sound deals for the as yet uninitiated for those whose
podcasts we are yet to guest on um it is the world's first podcast shopping network uh from
the uh undisclosed location of the sound deals warehouse ivan and i enthusiastically sell
uh an enormous number of products which have never been before sold because they are a load of uh
made-up bullshit that doesn't exist uh yeah that's right our producer um i i guess he smokes a lot of
weed and then comes up with a list of uh we don We don't know his process, but I respect his process. But yeah, we get a product name thrown at us.
And then we have to sell it.
I guess we have to explain it there and then and sell it to you guys.
And not only do we, but we've got a bunch of lovely guests.
So each episode has a different flavor with a different guest.
It's real silly.
And give it a listen.
It's so much fun.
And a bunch of made-up bullshit that doesn't exist is also my favorite way to describe improv
and our show as well.
So that works out perfectly.
If you guys like Review Review,
you will unequivocally like Sound Deals is the thing.
Yes, 100%.
It's almost too close for comfort, Max.
Oh, I'm so sorry.
It's almost a little too close.
The format of our show or the description of a load of
Made up bullshit that doesn't exist
Both
Fair play
Absolutely fair play
Speaking of
Anything goes at these places
Our topic for today
Oh my god what a segway
Weather spoons
Absolutely weather spoons.
We do have, I think, a sizable enough audience in the UK that I hope that this episode topic is a lot of fun for them.
For those of you who don't know what spoons, weather spoons is, it is a chain of pubs in the UK.
And I, God, would you guys like to describe it?
I've been to a couple.
Absolutely.
And they are pretty special.
Yeah, for sure.
I mean, obviously, all of the UK-based HeadGum listeners will be on board already.
So we wanted to bring, you know, a British flavor to the show so that we could review and explore something innately British.
And I think Wetherspoons is one of the most quintessential
British experiences in the world.
For those in the US, it is a mass chain of pubs
run by an incredibly unstable man
with a ruddy complexion and sort of dead, confused eyes
who sees his primary occupation now not as a publican
but as the publisher of an increasingly unhinged newspaper
which he distributes amongst his pubs
advocating the joys of leaving the European Union
which he strongly advocated for.
I had no idea.
It's alt-right
Dave and Busters without any games.
He's got some real
leanings. You might find
a Spoons or a Weatherspoon or
to give it its full title,
JD Weatherspoon. Oh, hello
Mr. Wikipedia.
Very true.
Which nobody really knows it as.
You might find them in a train station yep um
just on your high street they will have taken over potentially what used to be a nice looking pub and
they will have uh they will have assimilated it into a spoon although no two spoons look alike
they're all that is very true they all have a different vibe uh They all, that's part of the thing.
And you go there as a student because the booze is crazy cheap.
It is ridiculously cheap.
That's the dream.
It's part of the great British, you know,
one of the things which Britain excels at is competitive binge drinking.
And, you know, America just, you guys just don't do it quite the same.
I'll say it.
It also does a great range of bland microwaved food. Yes, if you enjoy the sweet ping of the microwave and the temporary heat of the microwave,
then you will love the food that is slodged out onto plates indifferently
by the harried, put- poverty wage paid staff of weatherspoons
what's wild is that so many of the reviews i've found are people being like the food here's
amazing like five stars these are the best pies you're ever gonna have like so on on this show um
jeff loves when i bring this up because i never do it and it's super fun and he never gets annoyed by it and never wants to close out the zoom but um i did um go to lambda
for a semester oh yeah and so it's like i don't want anyone she studied abroad for a semester and
she based a lot of her personality on it i don't want anyone to treat me differently because of it. Nobody's going to. I don't want anyone... Darling, you don't go to Lambda.
You train at Lambda.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I trained at Lambda for a semester.
Congratulations.
Fabulous.
Again, I don't want...
Thank you so much.
No, but no, I don't want to make this about me.
I could tell you had vocal training, darling.
I could tell from the moment you opened it.
There was a resonance there.
Jeff, aren't they so sweet?
This is crazy. They call it the Lambda twang, darling. I could hear it from the moment you opened it. There was a resonance there. Jeff, aren't they so sweet? They call it the Lambda Twang, darling.
I could hear it from the moment.
It's in your arse.
Oh my God.
Well, there was a Spoons that we went to
that was near Hammersmith.
And so that was the main one we would go to after class.
And I remember going for the first time,
like after our first day,
everyone was like, let's go to Spoons down the street street and of course we're all like what's that and we and they're like
oh it's a great like you know a lot of uni students go to this pub and we show up and and yes no two
spoons look alike but there is something unifying about them and the handful that i've been to is
that the lights are just a little bit too high
oh yeah it is it is a little too brightly lit yeah for what you want it to be and i remember
i have to look up a photo i remember going in and just being like thinking that they're closing or
they're shutting down being like oh are they done for the night and they're like no they're just
getting started this this is the ambience this is the ambience they cultivate there and you're right it was shocking for me i'm you never go to a spoons
as your final destination you're always going somewhere and you're like oh and then we'll we'll
go to we'll go to the spoons on the way and and have you know have a drink you'll never you'll
pre-game at the spoons because it's so cheap but it's so bright that you don't want any it's like it just feels so
what i love about like you know a lot of dive bars in america are like kind of you know the
low light you get in a booth you're with your friends it feels like a private intimate thing
spoons is the complete opposite it is a community table somehow and you're sitting
like 20 feet away from someone this is an i Ikea showroom which is selling cheap alcohol.
Yes.
Yes.
It feels like the brainchild from what you were describing, Max,
of someone who saw Citizen Kane and Piers Morgan tonight back to back.
Yeah, and thought, let's combine.
Let's combine the two.
I mean, look, in many ways, it's genius.
It's a real shame that the the guy behind it tim martin
is so unhinged because the egalitarian you know we all know what the american dream is the english
dream is unlimited cheap booze on on every high street really if you if you cut down to the core
of the english psyche that's kind of what we aspire to. That's the British dream. And that, you know, Wetherspoons are the premier purveyors of that.
You can go for, you know,
you can go for a curry,
a series of weird fruity beers,
and a fight,
and you can do all of that for about 12 pounds.
Yeah, for sure.
And the fight's free.
And the fight is well lit.
The fight is well lit.
Everyone has a front row seat.
All right.
Should we get into our first Wetherspoons review, Riley?
I thought you'd never ask, Jeff.
I thought you'd never flask.
I thought you'd never flask.
Let me find.
Okay.
So this, you know, again, we've been talking about it.
It is the quintessential quintessential british
experience um and so this review is for um one specific spoon it's called the swan and it is uh
right outside hammersmith station um jeff obviously you're very very familiar with london
oh i know hammersmith um so what are your favorite parts about the hammersmith station and kind of
the area?
My favorite part?
Yeah.
Oh my God.
It's just such a, it's, it's so full of characters and life.
It's such a, like that's where you go to experience real London town.
You go to the Hammersmith station, of course.
And that's like, that'd be like the equivalent of like the Lower East Side.
You know, that's kind of like, oh, some rock bands for sure came out of there.
I mean, obviously Hammersmith is where we go to buy our hammers in London. side you know that's kind of like oh some rock bands for sure came out of there i mean obviously
hammersmith is where we go to buy our hammers in london it's the the hammersmiths uh sat there
they're like blacksmiths uh with a very very very specific they're the one sect that we're not part
of the blacksmith yeah they're they're a heavily unionized group of blacksmiths who oh yeah it's
the only it's the only way you can buy uh or sell weirdly hammers in in london yeah so it's not even a neighborhood it's a group of
welders yeah yes yeah yeah essentially and those boys like to drink it's thirst it's
making hammers is thirsty work yeah that's perfect so this quintessential british pub four stars for the swan um we like to do on
the show we give uh we read the first name and then last initially get to make up a name so
yvonne varun s what is the last name for varun s varun sigmund oh well-known surname one night only at the mirage okay okay oh wait sorry this one on average they have 4.2 rating
that's pretty sigmund's review is three stars. Three? Oh, Varun's is three. Varun's is three.
Varun's coming in a little under.
Okay.
Varun Sigmund.
Three stars from Varun Sigmund.
A very French pub.
Great location.
Service is all right.
It's a good place to catch a drink with your friends for a game.
This is not a date spot.
So clearly he took someone on a date there a very french french pub that is the most that is the most baffling that's a classic mr sigmund to be honest i mean i mean that that
tells us more about varun than it does about the weatherspoons i mean that that is that is that is
v to the s all over. Of all the words,
if infinite monkeys with infinite typewriters
wrote infinite essays about Wetherspoons,
would they ever describe a single one of them as very French?
But also very French pub.
So what is that?
Because France doesn't have pubs.
Well, I mean, was it simply that a whole bunch of french
people were in the pub that maybe bonsoir bonsoir welcome to weather spoons uh how can i help you
today uh this evening we have a couple selections of uh fantastic uh parts um if you are interested
or we have a wine by the glass or craft cocktails, whatever you would like.
Oh, and I'm just looking at your menu.
And what have you got here?
Baguette.
And you've got coq au vin.
Guys, you said that the...
Sorry, I'm visiting from the States.
You guys said that this was like a quintessential British spot.
And this just already seems very French.
Yeah, hi.
Yeah, I was hoping to take Sarah here on a date,
and I invited this American gentleman along to watch.
It is very normal.
Yeah, it's just sort of an anthropological thing.
Not really.
Yeah, we do it over here.
It's a sort of cultural exchange.
He keeps trying to... Again, this is a sort of cultural exchange um he keeps trying to
he this is again this is my best friend from college he's trying to take sarah on a date
and he promised me that it was a normal british thing for me to third wheel i think he just
truly forgot that i was visiting yeah yeah yeah i saw it yeah it'd be fine meet sarah for the
first time right and uh and take her take her down a british I said we just go to a classic British boozer. That's what I said.
Which?
And I mean...
I do not understand the problem.
Well, I mean, it's just, you know,
you're wearing six or seven giant cloves of garlic
around your neck,
which isn't particularly British.
Oh, I almost fell hot for everybody
who comes into these spoons.
I pull out, like like three matching berets
The twa fantasy car right here you go
God save the Queen if you need anything else if you would like to order
My name is Pierre. I will be down the hall that way. I'll leave you to your
Menage a trois
Well, it's not yeah, that's not what I was hoping for and he's gone
He's saying things that I don't i don't i don't understand so you're you're where are you your friends from america sorry i'm
sarah again i'm so sorry that i'm here i should just no it's no no no stay stay i told you she
might say that stay watch it's okay please's okay. Please, please, please stay.
I'm not actually on a date with this man.
Help, help.
Listen, Justin.
Yeah?
Are you sure that this is a date?
Because you keep insisting that it is.
Sarah seems kind of uncomfortable.
Maybe it's more of a platonic drinks thing.
Listen, Sarah's from work.
I know she lives in the area.
I knew there would be some pubs in the area
I took us you and I went for a walk down Hammersmith
checked out some of the local artisan
hammers it's always a joy to see
those craftsmen doing their thing
and it just so happened that we were stood
outside Sarah's house when she came out
I said drink she said what
and I said great idea and here we are
I was just putting the bins out
yeah absolutely
my son needs me
hello it is me again
have we decided on what we would like to order this evening
actually I think I'm ok
three pints of real ale please
have you got any proper British warm stuff
no taste
no taste.
No taste.
Absolutely, we do have that.
But if I can offer you something a bit more exciting,
a bit more romantic for this Ménage à Trois that will be happening this evening.
No, please, seriously.
I was just putting the bins out and I was hoping to...
We have an absolutely gorgeous Bordeaux.
You know what we will focus
the
British ale
and I give you
I give you
three glasses
of the Bordeaux
of the Bordeaux
what
what's this
you already had the bottle
it didn't even matter
what we ordered
what's this
dark red beer
I don't understand it
so you don't know
what wine is
no we don't drink we don't drink it. So you don't know what wine is? No, we don't drink
it down West London, mate.
I've been trying to show Sarah here, and you,
a quintessential
British experience. Sarah, don't you live here?
You live near here. You know about England.
I mean, unfortunately, you do know where I live.
Clearly. I've got your
records from work. It's perfectly normal.
That seems against
any kind of work policy.
Can I ask what you guys do?
Yeah.
Work at marketing.
Yeah.
If it was against work policy,
then the HR computer would be more strongly locked.
Hold on.
Excuse me.
Let me just reach over here.
I need to figure out the lighting.
It became very dark.
Let me just make it a little bit.
No, it was kind of nice.
That's absolutely blaring.
Mon dieu, Sarah. I did not even recognize you.
Oh, my darling.
You guys know each other?
This is insane.
Pierre.
Oh, beautiful.
You know, Sarah and I had a little dalliance once many moons ago.
Pierre, you guys casually saw each other?
Well, it was, you know, if you think that finding the love of your life in one night is casual, then it was casual.
You didn't even recognize each other in low light.
How could you be the love of each other's life?
I think we actually found each other more than once that night.
Oh, oh.
We absolutely, absolutely.
Oh, that's cool.
Sarah, you know, I do not know what you are doing after hanging out with these gentlemen, but I get off work in five minutes.
Well, I'd be more than happy to meet you outside.
Justin looks so upset.
I have to say, Sarah, I think your behaviour has been extremely unreasonable today.
Kidding me?
I regret having kicked open the door to the HR office
and using the fingerprints that I dusted with sellotape on the mouse of the
thing to unlock it get your details work out your most likely pattern of work and choose a day when
your son is busy doing an after-school activity so take my mate pete for a walk nearby oh your son
how is it girl oh what a gorgeous little man. Little Marcel.
Yes, he's four years old now.
Is he called Edgar or Marcel?
Your story isn't stacking up. Edgar Marcel.
I forgot he's designated.
Oh, double-barreled, I see.
Very un-British.
Not everything is about beer.
Double-barreled, real ale.
Not dark red beer.
Not enough's about beer in this confusing
and souciant European den of iniquity.
Be casual, Justin.
Find someone random.
Ask them out on a date.
Don't use sellotape to get their fingerprints and get their details and avoid their son.
To quote Shakespeare, I'm someone who loved not too wisely but too well.
No, don't quote Shakespeare.
I'm so sorry.
You know what, Sarah?
I think I see what is going on
no you don't
you got it all
I
I think that
maybe with this cast
of characters you have found yourself
with that maybe I can
join this evening maybe I pull up
a chair and I join in
on the party
with the american and
the football hooligan who seated to your right thank you thank you for looking me in the eye
and seeing me for who i am maybe maybe there is a bit of a connection here maybe we can undo some of
the damage that brexit has wrought upon our two nations um you're clearly wanting um
menage a trois of some sort i'm just going to um i'm just going to stand up uh i'm going to leave
you three uh to it if you don't mind uh because as i said i really do need to get back to my son
yeah let me check my watch he's actually finishing in about 10 minutes so you should probably
i am so sad to see you go,
but it was so fantastic to see you.
You know what?
We switch and I take your seat.
Oh, well, goodbye.
All right, see you later.
This is insane.
Hello, Pierre.
How's it going?
Bonsoir.
Bonsoir.
I take out three more berets.
All right.
These ones are going to act as condoms.
It's fine.
Should we take a break?
Of course.
Take some sponsors.
Marty.
Marty.
And we're back with Max and Yvonne is it ivan or evan um i mean i think that sounds great

feels so hard
Jeffrey
yes I have a two star review
of JD Weatherspoons
in Manchester
I think the address is
49 Piccadilly
but that's not Piccadilly Circus
there's Manchester Piccadilly there is a's not Piccadilly Circus. There's Manchester Piccadilly.
There is a big train station in Manchester.
So it could be...
It sounds like it's the spoons in the big train terminus up in Manch.
Oh my God.
Big train...
This is so British.
I'm sorry.
It's so funny to me.
Two stars from Claire I.
Claire Indigo.
Claire Indigo.
Two stars. It's the latest color in the Cola box absolutely indigo absolutely rubbish atmosphere with cheapest drinks but nothing to appetize the
mind of palette yeah it's an okay place if you're skint and in a large group but don't come here
looking to make friends with the dodgy characters surrounding the bar, isn't it?
Sorry.
Yeah, sorry.
I mean, it's pitch perfect.
Did you train at Lambda as well?
I trained at Lambda Chi Alpha, an American fraternity there.
What up?
Can you, Jeff, just for clarity's sake, could you read it sans accent just to hear?
Because I think I know what I heard, but I'm fascinated to see if you can read it the most American that you can.
Rubbish atmosphere with cheapish drinks, but nothing to appease the mind or palate.
It's an okay place if you're skint and in a large group, but don't come here looking to make friends with the dodgy characters surrounding the bar.
Nothing to appease the mind or palate the extraordinary thing here is that
i mean basically the way she described it reads to me as a five-star weatherspoons review like
she's totally nailed the essence of what weatherspoons is what's baffling is that someone
has told claire indigo or she's deduced from her own research that weatherspoons is what's baffling is that someone has told claire indigo or she's deduced
from her own
research that
weatherspoons is a
place to go to
appease the mind
and palate
and to make
friends with the
fragrant and
hospitable characters
around the bar
yeah like she has
been to appease
the mind and
palate
how does one
appease the mind like i get i get hello chaps do you fancy going out to appease the mind and palate. How does one appease the mind?
Hello, chaps.
Do you fancy going out to appease the mind and palate?
Yes, quite.
Oh, yes, darling.
I'd absolutely...
You know, I've been absolutely just ravidest to appease my mind.
Yes.
You know, Trixie, I've noticed that your mind has seemed a little unappeased of late.
And...
Oh, darling, it's been quite unappeased.
Oh, can we please go to the train
station so we can appease my mind let us please appease let us please appease we threes we see
they're all very wealthy and dressed to the nines yes now i've done little to no research but i've
got an inkling that there is a a little uh little bijou uhale. Ooh. Just about.
Ooh, yummy scrummy.
I can't wait.
We can hop on the omnibus and they serve libations galore,
guaranteed to tickle and revivify even the most parched of minds and parched of palates.
Cut to the pub.
Welcome to Wotherspoon's.
Oh, God.
My merciful mother of Jesus Christ.
Couple of whale drinks, maybe a couple of real lagers.
What was the last word of that man's sentence?
Lagers.
I do believe he's trying to say lagers.
Oh, good grief.
Is he in such a state of intoxication that he can't say the word lager? Completely incoherent.
Or is he trying to say a new word?
We're doing half off
points tonight. Bunch of
chavs, bunch of ruffs getting
drunk off their rocker today.
It's a, I mean, it's
almost a kind of beat poetry
that he's saying. It's a sort of,
it's a kind of Bukowski-esque.
You know, this just might appease my mind.
I mean, don't you get the feeling
that this is quite like one of those old salons?
I do think he's trying to introduce
some kind of maybe poetry
or maybe he's from a faraway place.
Maybe he's an explorer of some kind.
Yes, he's doing a sort of,
yes, he is indeed.
He's giving a reading of some sort.
He's doing some kind of jig with that chair.
Yes.
Excuse me, my boss told me to change the specials on the chalkboard,
but I don't know how to read or write.
Any chance you chavs could fucking figure that out for me?
What's a chalkboard, I say?
Oh, the language!
Oh, goodness.
I mean, on the one hand, The fruitiness of the language and vernacular
Is an affront to my very being
But on the other hand
I haven't felt so alive in years
I mean, I can't speak for either of the two of you
But my husband hasn't even made so much as a passing glimpse at me
Since our marriage night some twelve year ago
And rightly so
And rightly so, and rightly so
God save the king And rightly so. And rightly so and rightly so. God save the king. And rightly so.
Yes, rightly so.
But there is really something rather innovating
about this experience and I mean, Trixie
you've always been a famed reader and
writer. Maybe we could approach
this goblin-like
creature and maybe, you know
in much the way as his colleague shared
some of his ill-conceived
stream of consciousness
thoughts with us we could perhaps you know give him a little of the of the alphabet and maybe
some basic numeracy i think that would be quite i do think this will appease my mind excuse me
kind gentlemen we would absolutely love to assist you in writing on your chalkboard. Alright, sounds good, yeah. Could you just
say that the football match
will be on around four?
Absolutely. Football
around four.
You understood that. Wow, that's
wonderful, Trixie. I did!
I did! Is that what he said?
Excuse me, kind sir, I don't think I got
your name. My name
is a very simple name and it starts
with a yard with a yard yeah he really doesn't he really doesn't know his letters yet he's giving
it starts with a yarn it starts with a yarn a story about your name call me call me yarmouth
yarmouth well that's a fantastic name Yarmick Yarmick A wonderful name
Now
You guys seem like
You have a lot of
Of shillings
I don't seem to have
As much quid
How do you guys
Get rich fast?
Well we got rich
The very very noble way
By being born into
Preposterously wealthy families
And then marrying
Still yet wealthier men
It's a tried and tested method here, Yarmik.
Yarmik, it's called generational wealth.
Yes, Yarmik.
I've never even heard of that.
I can only recommend it.
Just be born wealthy.
It's really quite something.
I tried.
You tried?
Can you walk us through About how you tried
How I tried to be born wealthy
Woke up
First day I had a memory
I said oh how good it would be
To be able to do anything
And then I realized very quickly
That I couldn't do that
So I got a job at this here JD
And now I get so
Rubby pissed
That by the end of the day,
I don't even take home my day's pay.
I live in the baseboards.
Within the boards themselves, Yarmik.
I kind of hit one of them with my feet.
The baseboard gets up and it reveals a very small twin mattress.
That's my room, yeah?
How utterly quaint.
It looks exactly like the drawer where I keep my cheapest shoes.
Yarmik.
Multiple shoes?
Yarmik, could you give us a moment, please, just to converse?
Of course.
Thank you.
I hope I'm not stepping on anybody's toes when I say this.
Particularly not Yarmik, who's not wearing any shoes.
Exactly. But I have almost butterflies in the stomach when I'm around Yarmik.
Is that crazy to say?
I think not. I mean, I felt a certain flattering about the buzzard myself.
I think his aroma is so pungent that that is that it's
caused me to to feel a little bit inebriated good good grief i think i might um as they say uh make
my move oh well tricksy if you must yes i mean listen yeah you're you're it sounds as though
yarmulke may appease yet yet more than your mind at this point.
And if you are, you know, if you are thinking of taking a trip with Yarmik into the baseboard and down to his delightful mattress-like sack of hay,
then remember to use protection, by which I mean always carry a copy of the Bible.
Of the Bible.
And you know, I feel so thrilled.
I have always loved the Phantom of the Opera.
I feel like I'm living out my dreams at the moment.
Come once again, my dear, indeed.
Yarmik! Oh, darling Yarmik!
Yeah?
I hope this isn't too forward, Yarmik! Oh, darling Yarmik! Yeah?
I hope this isn't too forward,
but my darling friends and I were wondering if you have any plans and the floorboards
after you get off your shift.
You asking me if you want a shag?
Oh, Yarmik!
I've never done that before.
That's surprising, Yarmik.
Not really.
I sleep on a sack of barley and I bathe a nail.
It's mostly water.
It is mostly water.
Yarmik, I've never felt this way about anybody in my entire life.
Really?
You awaken something in me, in all of us, you know,
if I can speak for the group,
that we haven't felt in what feels like, well, lifetimes.
Yarmik, I would love to sleep on your pile of hay and barley this evening,
if you'll have me.
Nay.
Nay?
Oh. The reason I'm still virgin is because I'm very picky. this evening, if you'll have me. Nay. Nay?
The reason I'm still virgin is because I'm very picky
and you're not Yarmouk's type.
I say Yarmouk.
Oh my goodness.
Beggars can't be choosers, Yarmouk.
You're clearly a beggar.
I'm not a beggar.
I'm not a beggar in the sexual sense.
Just in the legitimate sense that I need you.
Yes, yes.
And if you have any shillings to spare,
I would very much appreciate it.
Goodness.
Yarmik, may I ask, what is...
I'm so sorry, I'm trying not to cry from the embarrassment,
but what is Yarmik's type?
Victoria Beckham.
And Victoria Beckham alone.
I say, Yarmik.
Yes.
Listen, you might be setting yourself up for a bit of a fall there
because there is but one Victoria Beckham.
Whilst we are most proud of her,
I'm not saying you don't have a lot to offer her.
Look, good luck, mate.
Good luck.
All the best.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I grab your face so tenderly
and it feels like sticky,
like a table at a pub.
Yarmouk, I know we've only known each other
for a short time,
but if you ever do find Victoria Beckham, she'll be a very lucky lady.
Trixie.
And I just want you to know, I'll never forget you.
Or your barley bed.
Or your sticky face.
Or your ale ridden hair
and
if I can give you one parting
gift might I
have a kiss? Alright
as you kiss all of his teeth
fall out. Of course
I knew it would
happen one day didn't think it would be because of this
What a way to lose
them. Well T Trixie, that
looked sensational.
Cut to like ten years
later, I'm with my very boring
husband and I'm
wearing a necklace that almost
looks like teeth.
Just staring out the window. You know,
Trixabel,
I thought it might be
time for our annual chat.
All right.
I'm ready.
I start just like running my hands along the teeth.
Yes.
My butler's butler looked at you recently and relayed that information by way of an oil painting to me.
I observed the painting in my club and wish to raise an issue with you.
Yes, what is it, darling?
It appears that you are somewhat sort of frotting a string device around your neck
with some form of sort of ivory-esque implements.
Now, I know full well the jewels that are in this family
because I bought them all from my parents on their deathbed.
And that isn't among them.
No, it is something much more valuable.
I don't think you'll ever understand.
I don't.
I work...
I work in a bank.
And if there's one thing i understand it's value that my job is
head of value here at the bank of england uh so if you're saying that's more valuable then uh
like clue me in miss Missy. Clint,
you won't understand because it doesn't
have anything to do with monetary value.
It has more to do with values
of the heart. And I know you
and I have rarely had a moment
of passion, but this
passion... That's nonsense.
I will carry with me
for the rest of my life, and that's
just something that you'll have to get used to.
Hold on.
Just a moment of passion.
I'd like to take issue with that.
Do you not remember?
Seven years ago, it rained slightly and we both stood under the same umbrella.
Cut to that.
Well, this is nice.
Cut back.
What do you say to that?
No, it was fleeting, but if I can be honest,
and I hope I don't hurt your feelings,
but I thought of him the entire time.
Him?
Him.
Jesus?
Well, of course.
Always Jesus.
I can't believe you have to ask.
That's always in the back of the brain.
Right, right.
Mama.
I see.
Mama.
Oh, yes.
Yes, darling.
Mama, I was reading your Bible and I flicked to the back pages and I don't understand.
What are these drawings?
Who is Yarmik i haven't heard that name in 10 years
oh darling yarmik is well he's a very special friend of mine oh look out the window
and i see yarmik like past. A very special friend indeed.
I try and wave.
He disappears into the mist.
Don't listen to your mother.
No such thing as friends.
These drawings, I don't understand them.
What is Yarmik doing to you?
Is he attacking you?
Listen, the Bible has all manner of illustration.
Good grief.
Papa, what is Yarmik doing?
Listen, I have a very dim recollection of being placed into a similar position with your mother by my nanny.
But I cannot truly speak to exactly what that is we cut to that moment
close your eyes yes nanny
thank you nanny
yes all right uh should we do our last review? My God.
Yelling.
Close your eyes.
That is how we do it here.
Close your eyes.
This is how we do it.
Okay.
This is also for the swan at Hammersmith.
It is one star from Bert H. Oh bert houndstooth bert houndstooth
okay excellent like the pattern um it is one star from bert houndstooth for this one deception and
deceit website sports section promises quote unquote all the action from the autumn internationals
with a confirmed booking specifying we were there for a meal while watching rugby
we arrived to be told they aren't showing it terribly disappointing and would say if you
want to watch sport avoid this place as what is promised is not what is shown the staff didn't
offer to put one screen on for us.
They were unhelpful, blunt, and unwelcoming.
And then the owner responded,
or whoever is the manager of the swan responded.
Thank you for letting us know
about your recent visit to the swan.
Please contact us at, then they give the number,
when you have an opportunity,
and we'll be more than happy
to try and turn your experience around.
The game is done. they didn't watch it you can't go back
and turn that experience around you say you can't you can't redo the game you can't get the you
can't get you can't get the weather spoons has many staff so there's there's there's no stopping
you know them just putting on uh i mean look if it's if it's a sevens that's 14 people
that you need uh if it's a full rugby match then it is it is indeed more um that's exactly what i
thought of like we'll make it work and like all right guys um we have burt and his friends coming
in uh in about oh my god they'll be here in 15 minutes. And so obviously they missed the rugby match last night.
And so we are going to need to play rugby in the pub.
We can do a schoolyard pick for teams, I suppose,
if we want to have a team captain for each.
Now, does anyone here know how to play
and has ever played before?
Because they should probably be the captain.
It's the one with the racket, right?
Is that it?
You've got a racket.
I think so.
I think so.
You think?
Swing it through the air.
I think it's the one with the racket.
Because I only watch football.
And so this is quite new.
But okay, let's go with racket.
Sorry, rugby.
Rugby.
Not heard of it. Not heard of it. Okay. No. You haven't even heard of it. No, not heard of it. Rugby. This is quite new, but okay, let's go with racket. Sorry, rugby. Rugby. Not heard of it.
Not heard of it.
Okay.
No.
You haven't even heard of it.
No, not heard of it.
Rugby, you're saying.
I think you jump.
Rugby.
I think there's jumping.
It's sort of...
You just jump around.
Small trampolines or something and then you just kind of...
All right, all right.
I think...
But the racket fits in somehow.
That feels right.
Yeah, I think...
With the racket.
There's a lot of racket.
Is there a sort of something on a string? Is that part of it? I can't... Okay, yeah, could be right, could be right. Yeah, I think... With the racket. There's a lot of racket. Is there a sort of something on a string?
Is that part of it?
I can't...
Okay, yeah, could be right, could be right.
Shall I move the tables around or just leave them out?
Yes.
You know what?
Let's do half and half.
Let's move half the tables to one side.
Yeah, but leave half where they are in case it's a table sport.
Just in case.
Yeah.
And you know what?
We can just...
We'll just go for it.
I'm furiously writing this down.
Okay, we have string, racket, jumping up and down.
So when they come in, we'll just give it a go.
And we'll probably be able to tell by their reaction if they love it, they love it.
And if they don't, they won't change it up.
Can I offer up one thought?
Yeah, of course.
Yes, Jeremy.
Why are we doing this all over just one customer?
Well, I mean, I think, I i think i think i think i mean as this
hushed silence suggests we're all a bit surprised you've forgotten the weatherspoons motto go above
and beyond for every single online review online review and make it turn it around make it turn it
around and we've always said that jeremy and I know you're a new hire, Jeremy.
I've never heard that.
But this is something that's really, really important to us in the Wetherspoons family.
All right.
Yeah, I guess I just didn't know.
Yeah.
There was once a kid hacked their parents' account and demanded that we served alligator steaks.
And we do.
We now do that.
We do.
We now do.
Alligators are very nearly extinct because of this branch, because of the swan.
Not even the whole chain.
No, just us.
No, just the one.
Just this one.
That's so horrible.
No, we don't like it.
We don't want to do it, but we want to make the customers online happy.
Yeah.
And when that kid comes back, they'll be delighted or have forgotten.
You guys, I think they're here i see them
outside um everyone everyone places places here we go here we go barely talked about it
hello bert uh welcome back oh um hi uh yeah no i'm just here with some mates i'm not really uh
okay let the games begin Games begin! Oh, yes! Oh, my gosh. We're all just jumping with string.
I broke my leg.
What's going on?
My Achilles heel.
My Achilles heel.
Throwing a racket around.
One of them hits Bert in the face.
Oh.
That's a niner.
We didn't discuss scoring.
Oh, that's nine, okay?
That's nine.
And the jumping, two per each jump.
So if my calculations are correct, we're already at 17, 18.
18.
We're now at 18.
What's happening here?
Why is that man just tying string to things?
Rugby style.
It's rugby style.
It's rugby.
You know, I know that you saw your review.
Hello, I am the Wetherspoons manager.
I responded to you.
And I'm so sorry about what happened with your experience
that we couldn't put the match on.
But we told you we'd turn your experience around.
I kind of forgot about that, yeah.
I'm sorry.
You forgot?
Oh, wait, let me just... Oh, yeah, no.
You don't even like rugby that much?
We wanted to see the rugby, yeah,
and it was the World Cup or something.
I mean, my mates are more into it than me.
I've broken my leg in 11 places.
And you didn't have it on,
so I guess it was...
So we tried to make it up to you.
I got rug burn from string all over my thighs and ass.
Rugby style.
Rugby style.
Yes.
This whole thing was rugby style.
This whole day was, was rugby style.
It was for you.
Not for you, Bert.
Um, sorry.
I'm just a bit.
What does that even mean?
Rugby style?
Well, you know, the, the jumping and the string and the rackets it it was all rugby style
looking at it around everyone like right rugby style that's what the that came to the agreement
about right i mean like i'm not a big rugby fan but even i know it's uh you know it's a it's a
team sport with one ball and uh you're not allowed to pass it forwards um so that's why they throw it backwards but there's a few tables on the pitch aren't there just a couple of tables just a couple
of tables not the whole pitch no not the whole pitch just half of it we made sure of that that
we know um what's all of a sudden one of the floorboards kind of opens up. Jarman comes up. Time to start my shift.
Yeah.
Hello, Jarman.
Racket hits him in the face.
Oh, of course.
Don't worry.
He's got no teeth to knock out, Bert.
Right.
Yeah, no, I think I'm...
I just preferred this place when it was a French restaurant, to be honest.
A brasserie. Yeah, that was good times um all right should we do our last segment let's do it
jeff what shook you?
I got a tattoo.
You got a tattoo?
No way.
I got tatted and inked and heated.
Is this your first?
Is this your first?
Congratulations.
This is my first tattoo.
Do we get to see it?
Yeah, I can show it to you guys.
Easy, Jeff.
Oh, okay.
Oh, there it is.
Happy days.
The hair hasn't even grown back.
No, it happened days ago.
I shaved it myself.
For the listener at home, it's a nice little smiley face without the head, I would say.
Just the eyes and the mouth.
Without the circle.
It's a smiley guy on my wily thigh.
Oh, bars.
Don't ever call your thigh wily.
That's so...
So did it hurt?
Were you excited?
Why the smiley face?
Those are different questions,
but I guess why the smiley face?
It did not hurt.
It felt like somebody was just kind of scratching me.
It took five minutes.
It was Amy McClain at McLame Tattoos on Instagram. Shout out, Amy. scratching me uh it took five minutes uh it was uh amy mclean uh at mclean tattoos on instagram
shout out amy um and uh it's a smiley guy because it's uh you know don't take yourself too seriously
right leg because of right brain creativity yvonne and uh and and how do you know it's a guy it's not
a smiley girl um i guess it's non-binary.
Is guy gendered?
There's debate about that.
That's the thing.
I don't think guy is gendered.
It's just a little smiley friend on his...
On his wily end.
Wily thigh.
That's so much worse.
Healing's okay.
I am really worried that I haven't been keeping it protected enough and that it's cracking.
Have you been Vaseline-ing it?
Is that a thing you're supposed to do?
Only the first couple days.
I'm not a tatty boy, as they would say over here.
As they say down at the docks.
Yeah, I'm not a tatty boy.
I'm a teddy boy.
I'm not a tatty boy, but I do know that you might have to
Vaseline your thigh
he's a vassy boy but he's not a tatty boy
he's a vassy boy
just in case the tat comes along
you can't be too careful
I'm waxed, vaxxed and vast
and tatted
how long will that take to heal for the size
two weeks they said but maybe less
because it's small and simple but it really is looking a little bit cracked and i'm worried i fucked it up because
i haven't been vaseline it just ink it in with a little bit of uh a little pen and i'm sure it'll
be fine as i say i'm not a tatty boy so i'm not sure yeah you can always get it touched up i've
read so worst case scenario i'll go back back to Amy and spend another $80.
Gradually increase, you know, what is now one of the most kind of elegant and spare and simple designs gradually each time.
You're like, oh, well, there's a tiny crack.
So I'll just, if we can just add a little flourish, then actually, do you know what?
I'm just going to do, and then in like six months time, you've got like a very elaborate ornate dragon fighting with an octopus that kind of goes across both legs yeah no way
3d perspective nipples pierced for some reason yeah absolutely bottom lip tattoo it says how a
nice day yeah with a chain connecting all three yeah absolutely horrible or hags have a great
summer i really want to get a bottom lip tattoo but i've heard they're really painful
and uh the ink can run and there's like bad things that can happen with it but we'll see uh what
have you what's been shaking you guys i have the the the genuine thing that's been shaking me uh
and not not for better oh no is um is it allowed to be a thing that's shaking you down to anger town?
Down to anger town, yeah.
There is a sensation which I identified,
which I feel there's probably like some sort of German like compound word for it,
but we don't have here,
which is the fury and discomfort quite close to pain that you receive when your headphones are forcibly yanked out of your ears by your phone falling to the floor.
Oh, I know exactly what you're talking about.
And I'm talking ear pods, the standard like iPhone-y shape, like, you know, whatever the standard ones everyone's got.
The ones on a cable.
Basically, I've got a pair of shorts that i wear to the gym it turns out the the pockets are secretly like a third too small
for my phone but you can't really tell and also you can't really do anything about it so i just
walk around and like four times in a gym session my phone comes out and it feels as though my
eardrums so uh i've just done some quick google translating and i feel
like the compound uh the compound german word would be kopfhörer lösen schmerzen which would
be headphone release pain that's it that's what shape wow one more time yes you're suffering from
quick on the cup i'm What's shaking me this week is kop her erlösen schmerzen.
That's my favorite one shook me up.
That really is a very good one.
So I, nine weeks ago, became a father.
Hey.
Congratulations.
Yes. Oh my God. Yes, ma'am.
Oh, my God.
Which is pretty exciting.
Yeah.
And every day I am shaken by just the thought.
You're a very strong baby.
Oh, my God.
Congratulations.
Yeah.
You're not worried about shaking the baby every day.
He wakes him up. Yeah, you're not worried about shaking the baby. The baby, everything's just like dead.
Wakes him up.
Yo, what's up?
No, the thing that blows my mind is,
so basically we've got a book that we're following.
It's called Your Baby Week by Week.
And it literally tells you exactly
what your baby's going to be doing that week.
So week six, your baby will smile this week socially
uh as though they're recognizing something and lo and behold two days into week six no way my baby
smiled i mean yeah it's it's pretty mad um so so yeah completely blew my mind but it's uh
it's a hell of a ride it's pretty it's been accurate
so far the book has been accurate uh unfortunately next week it says your baby will summon a demon
well you know it's not an exact science so we'll see how it goes we'll see we'll see what happens
there might be a couple of days at the start of the week when he doesn't you know it could that
could happen on day four you know fingers crossed you never know yeah it's hard to say oh my god that's amazing congratulations thank you very much thank you
sort of makes my tattoo thing look dumb i mean i tattooed the baby um so uh there it is you you
you tattooed w which is ill timing considering his homophobic rant yeah
so um i know i said this on the pod last week but it just bears repeating um into the mist
online show which happened in march april is now gonna be live and in person in Chicago. And Max and Yvonne, for those who don't know,
it is like a night on the town in Chicago, 1927.

meet with our design team for the first time in Perth.
We've had a lot of zoom meetings with them, but we did a walkthrough of the theater with
them and it was just, it was just really exciting and crazy like to be in a theater with people put like
making a show and our design team is so fucking awesome like we've had all these ideas but just
given budget we're just like you know and also we're not designers so it's like well i guess
maybe we could we do this and within the first five minutes of the meeting our set designer just
like brought up the coolest idea he's like oh yeah we can just do that at the start and we're like you can we can do that and he's like oh yeah easy and
then just kept moving so it's wild that it's coming together and then also i like i this is
just a shout out to chicago i really love chicago and i took like a nice walk by myself around um
