Starting point is 00:07:16 You told me to be your beat for this. I tried to, yeah. You said stop being miserable and be your beat. So listen, I'm trying to be your beat. Why are you bringing up me weak? Because I've had a shit week. So as everyone knows, I've sort of been avoiding social media and that
Starting point is 00:07:28 just because it just gets us down. I had a really strange experience because Twitter can be full of negativity and stuff. Yeah. I went on Twitter on Friday night. Yeah. Opened up Twitter, right? I never go on What's Trending ever, right?
Starting point is 00:07:39 I just, not at the minute anyway. I never do it. And I pressed the little sort of, you know, the little magnifying glass at the bottom. Yes. And I looked at the top two trends. Government, the government dropped UK COVID warning level down one.
Starting point is 00:07:50 Right. Stuff's getting opened up a bit more. And Katie Hopkins banned from Twitter. Oh. I went, I literally looked, I went, that's full house.
Starting point is 00:07:58 Cash out. That is like, that's like walking into a casino, randomly putting like a quid down on something, winning a grand and just going, fucking go home now before you lose that grand. It's a good day randomly putting like a quid down on something, winning a grand, and just going, fucking go home now before you lose that grand. It's a good day to be alive.
Starting point is 00:08:10 I just literally put my phone on silent. I turned it around the other way and I just put it on the table. I went, I'm done. I have won Twitter for the day. Yeah. Fucking brilliant. One thing with Twitter, which always seems to happen to me,
Starting point is 00:08:19 when you go on the trending bit or whatever, it's always like a really famous actor's name and you always think they've died every single time but they're just but then everyone else that's why they end up trending because something happened and then everyone talks about and everyone's like are they dead it's like no no they're not it's irritating when every single trend and top tweet is are they dead and you're like will someone answer it it's really irritating someone sent us on twitter someone's made a shag married annoyed
Starting point is 00:08:46 drinking game yeah it's extremely impressive annoyingly i didn't get the person's name before i took a screenshot i'll find it after um so yeah the smart drinking game i retweeted it so if you want to see it guys just go on mine i literally tweet like three things a week now so it'll be easy you'll be able to find it i'll be right at the top i'm not a prolific tweeter these days yeah um so the smart drinking game so whenever you hear these things which i'm about to tell you you take a drink right so i'm guessing it's just like a sip of your drink i hope so because looking at it it's heavy going well it's not until i read them that i was like do we really talk about these things that much so you've got to take a drink when it's a plonk

Starting point is 00:13:58 I don't want a pint of hot water with a shot of coffee. Like, I'm all right. It's really upsetting. Honestly, it's one of the shittest things in the world I've stopped going to them all I think we're the weird ones though I think we're the weird ones
Starting point is 00:14:10 I think everyone else is like well no what a big coffee yeah I'm the weird one because I'm not getting one of those bloody pumpkin fucking lattes with bloody
Starting point is 00:14:18 gingerbread biscuit in and about 1700 sugars pumpkin spice latte minging I got a gingerbread one on the way to Strictly once and it was horrible. And I had to, like the paparazzi and that were there taking photos and I took a drink of it and I was like trying to hide how gutted I was.
Starting point is 00:14:31 It was horrible. Was it? And I had to get out with like, at the other end of the car, I had to get out again and get photographed again with a pint of fucking freezing cold coffee that I hadn't touched. I remember going to the driver going, can I leave this here? And he was like, is it full? I went, yeah. He went, no.
Starting point is 00:14:43 I went, right. I climb out of the car with all my shit to be fair in its defense i've never actually tried one before gingerbread one's disgusting okay actually there must be something nice about them because everyone raves about them but i'm just everyone's tastes are different but i'm telling you now this is my thing right learn how to make a basic nice small black coffee before you go on to the other stuff i feel like they've missed a level they've missed a level out in the training. They're just, I think you must go and work
Starting point is 00:15:07 for one of these big coffee chains and they're like, right, okay, welcome to your first day of training, guys. Here we go. We're going to make this. It's got 19 ingredients, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. How do I make a cup of tea? Don't worry about that.
Starting point is 00:15:19 Nobody's coming in just for a cup of tea. I just feel, I feel saddened for the plain coffee. I'm made to feel like some kind of leper when I go in and ask for a cup of tea? I just feel, I feel saddened for the plain coffee. I'm made to feel like some kind of leper when I go in and ask for a cup of tea in a coffee place. They look at us like,
Starting point is 00:15:30 I'm horrible. I'm like, can I just have an English breakfast tea? They're like, oh, look it, there's another one in. When I,
Starting point is 00:15:38 interestingly, when I did the, the spinoff show, The Junk. Oh, sorry. That was on the drinking game as well. Was it? I forgot that one.
Starting point is 00:15:45 Rosie hit her mic. Great. the spin-off show, The Jungle. Oh, sorry. That was on The Drinking Game as well. Was it? I forgot that one. Rosie hit her mic. Great. When I did the spin-off show, The Jungle, there was this really good coffee guy who used to come to the sort of, the bit where we sort of got ready and stuff, where our trailers and everything were. This guy came with this massive coffee machine
Starting point is 00:16:01 and you had to, you know, you must be renting a dinner or whatever. And he was an Australian guy, obviously. And whenever you walked over, he was obviously obviously he was like half take the piss but every walk over you were like and now welcome to brown water corner brown water corner welcome to brown water corner what can i get for you today is that because were you the only one drinking tea well no i was calling coffee brown water what are you just calling a brown water corner oh't I? He was calling brown water corner. Oh, sorry. Okay. But yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:26 Very clever. Well, you didn't get it. No, I didn't get it all. Jesus. I don't like tea. Wasted! Wish I did like tea. When your mom told me
Starting point is 00:16:34 that if someone ever gave her a cup of tea, she'd vomit. Yeah, she likes, she's very dramatic like that. Remember the time your mom, I made you a coffee and I made your mom a coffee
Starting point is 00:16:43 at the same time and I put two sweeteners in yours and I gave them to the wrong person and your ma'am took a mouthful of your coffee and spat it back into the cup. Yeah, I do, yeah. It was ridiculous. Spat it back into the cup and went, Rosie, this is yours. Oh, thank you. Cheers, ma'am.
Starting point is 00:17:00 Pre-COVID, thank God. I didn't drink it all the same. Well, I had to make another one because she just fucking gargled with it. Back into the cup. She was standing next to the sink. Heathen. Have we talked... We must have talked about the time when Sandra,
Starting point is 00:17:13 when we were on holiday and we had to go to the halfway hotel and Sandra said children were vomiting in the wind. We must have talked about that. I don't know if we've talked about it on here. So what happened was, we were on holiday and we'd stayed in our hotel and then we had a day,
Starting point is 00:17:29 we got kicked out of our hotel and then we had to wait, possibly a few hours, sorry, or like an overnight stay. In the middle of a night flight and you'd check out at nine. But we had to wait at a different hotel
Starting point is 00:17:38 and we got the other hotel and Sandra being, Sandra's like a poor snob. She's got no money money she's skinned but she has really high standards great and she is a proper snob um so we went to this other hotel and obviously it just wasn't as nice as our hotel that we'd be new so and we didn't go to really posh hotels when we were kids so it's probably like we went to like a three-star hotel you wouldn't have even cared though no and then this one was probably like a two star hotel
Starting point is 00:18:08 and we got there and I think the entertainment was on and that's why I was buzzing but my mum to this day describes it as one of the worst nights of her life and she says that you know it was horrible it was disgusting it was dropping to bits there was cockroaches and all the children were vomiting on the dance floor that's the way she described it to me she described it to me she described it
Starting point is 00:18:25 to me as it was disgusting it was dropping a bit there was food everywhere there was rubbish and everyone was vomiting that's right so you want to get out it sounds like there's a fucking norovirus break oh you just want to leave i just i think the funny thing is though because my mom's always been like that but it wasn't until i met you that sandra would start telling the story and you'd go hang on a minute this is ridiculous like the idea that everyone in this hotel was vomiting like the end of a guest house paradiso just everyone's just opening the door just wide in the corridor have you seen i ever seen problem child no have you not never seen problem i love that that film when i was a kid they they're on just wide in the corridor. Have you ever seen Problem Child? No.
Starting point is 00:19:05 Have you not? Never seen Problem Child. I loved that film when I was a kid. They're on a roller coaster. Or like, sorry, like the Walter or something at the fair and everyone's just vomiting on each other. That was what the hotel was like
Starting point is 00:19:16 in Sandra's eyes. I don't really remember. I really, honestly, in a perfect world, one day she'll be going through like a box of shit in a perfect world one day she'll be going through like a box of shit in our loft or whatever
Starting point is 00:19:27 and she'll come running round our house with a photo and go see I told you and there'll be a photo of all yous and just in the background
Starting point is 00:19:32 and there'll just be loads of people just highing up into the pool I'll get it framed babadoo babadoo babadoo so regular listeners will know
Starting point is 00:19:41 that we need a log update from last week's log. Mm-hmm. Carry on. Yeah. Wasn't that bad, was it? Wasn't that bad.
Starting point is 00:19:50 I was so worried. Not as bad as what you described. The man was outside in his van, and he opened the back of the van, and he was like, oh, summer's coming, you know? You don't need this many logs. And I was like, oh, crap. And he went to the back of this massive van with this pallet truck thing, and then he came out with it, and I thought,
Starting point is 00:20:05 that's actually not that bad. It's not that bad. But I didn't know he said that. That's annoying. Yeah. All right, then, mate. Give us me money back. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:11 And you can take them back. Summer's coming, you know. Why do people do that? Why do, like, you're buying something, and the person you're buying it off slags you off for buying that thing. And you go, hang on. In his defense, I think he was the delivery guy, but yeah. But what? Yeah. So do you want to deliver this product anymore? slags you off for buying that thing and you go hang on
Starting point is 00:20:25 but what so do you want to deliver this product anymore or do you want to not have a job and people not buy it I hate that
Starting point is 00:20:34 but I know for a fact if I'd have went actually I've got a pizza oven and an outdoor wood fuelled barbecue he would have went
Starting point is 00:20:40 so I couldn't win so I just fucking didn't say anything if I said oh I've got a pizza oven and he went oh have you now lordy darn i'm like well i can't win here so i'll just let you have that yeah i love that summer's coming where do you live devon because here mate it's flipping freezing it's fucking me it's still we don't have a summer this is the northeast of england our summer lasts for about four days and we had it at the beginning of lockdown yeah now we're back now it's autumn again.

Starting point is 00:21:18 Well, I hope not. I'm just really glad I wasn't there because that pisses me off. You know what, though? You wouldn't have said anything and I know you wouldn't because you'd have said it afterwards and I just got this in the neck afterwards.
Starting point is 00:21:29 Do you know what? It took us two hours to move them logs and stack them up next to the front door. I could have done them. It would have took longer if you were whinging on
Starting point is 00:21:36 about that guy so I'm glad you didn't say it. I know, me too. I just really don't like that. It's like, sometimes when I go to the shops and I'm buying Robin new clothes because to be fair, he damages his to the shops and I'm buying Robin new clothes because to be fair

Starting point is 00:31:33 someone just they just know the brand they just know who they're emailing here they know who they're talking to yeah okay oh that's good hey guys
Starting point is 00:31:40 listening to episode 69 and you got the question about sharing a towel or a toothbrush or not changing your bed for six months. Yes, we did. That was from Scott Bennett and Gemma Bennett. I once dated a guy and stayed at his house
Starting point is 00:31:51 after a night out. I didn't have my toothbrush because it was an impromptu stopover. Okay. He offered me, without batting an eyelid, if I wanted to use his guest toothbrush. without batting an eyelid, if I wanted to use his guest toothbrush.
Starting point is 00:32:10 The toothbrush he let anyone who stared at his flat use. Awful. That's awful. The communal toothbrush. He did not understand why I was disgusted and didn't see anything wrong with this. I declined and just used my finger and some toothpaste. However, some people have obviously accepted this offer and used a communal toothbrush.
Starting point is 00:32:28 Why would you do that? The guest toothbrush! That's the worst thing ever! How many guests does he have? The guest toothbrush? What's wrong with him? I'm just trying... It doesn't surprise us that much it's do you know what it is it's something that sounds like it should be acceptable but the minute you think
Starting point is 00:32:53 about it for more than a second you're like actually no that's the worst thing ever really not it's not like the guest towel is it that you can wash yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, that's grim. The guest toothbrush. That is grim. Oh, great, yeah. But how long would he have that for? Because just say over like 10 years, he's only had 10 guests. Yeah. Would you just keep that one? Because it's only been used 10 times.
Starting point is 00:33:16 Well, I mean, 10 times. So you just keep that one. That's still a new toothbrush, Rosie. I know. Yeah. I just remembered a story. Ooh. When I was younger,
Starting point is 00:33:23 I don't know if I've told you this, when I was younger and I lived at my mum and dad's house still, there was one morning, my dad got up really early to go to work. I think it was something to do with the van was getting fixed and he had to drop the van off before going to work or something like that. He got really, really early. And I remember I was sitting at the kitchen table on the night time
Starting point is 00:33:42 and my dad came in and my mum said, because she just notices things, she's like me, she just notices stuff. My mum said to my dad, you went downstairs without brushing your teeth this morning. Did you not brush your teeth? Have you not brushed your teeth all day? And my dad went, oh no, there's a toothbrush.
Starting point is 00:33:57 I came down, I forgot, and there's a toothbrush I spotted under the sink in the bathroom. Don't. So I just used that. And my mum went, Bill! She went, I used that to clean the toilet. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:34:09 And she used, you know the under bit. She used that to clean under the rim. It's the one she uses all the time. And he went, that makes it, he just laughed because he doesn't care. He went, that makes sense. He said, because he was eating his dinner and something in the back of his mouth hurt. And he put his hand in his mouth and he pulled one of the bristles from the back
Starting point is 00:34:25 of his wisdom tooth oh your dad I've just remembered that story it's the worst isn't it your dad is poster boy for like the 50s
Starting point is 00:34:37 just honestly pit village 50s kid any though the stories like hey that wouldn't have even bothered him at all like no you wasn't i remember you just laughed his head off that's hilarious i'm also your man uses the toothbrush to clean the toilet she used to she used to how are you man i went round the other day. I love that.
Starting point is 00:35:06 So my hoover broke. Do you know what? I'm going to actually give them a shout out. We've got a Dyson, right? They're not paying us to do this. If you get a Dyson, just go. It's so boring and so house husbandy. And you can tell I've been in lockdown.
Starting point is 00:35:19 Do the warranty. I phoned up. It broke. I snapped it myself. I was doing it too hard. I caught it on a doorframe. I snapped the end off. I phoned them. I went, snap. They went, yeah too hard I caught it on a doorframe I snapped the end off I phoned them
Starting point is 00:35:26 I went it snapped they went yeah we'll send it and they just sent a new part fun note like they were sending us a you know when you phone up and you want a sofa
Starting point is 00:35:32 and they go we'll send you the little colour book and you just get that little shitty fabric send us it for fuck all it was buzzing anyway I told my mum about it and she went which bit broke
Starting point is 00:35:40 and I went I'll show you and I went into a cupboard to get the hoover where it's on the little cupboard thing on the charger and I went in I picked up the hoover and there was no attachment on the end and I went where's'll show you. And I went into a cupboard to get the hoover where it's on the little cupboard thing, right? On the charger. And I went in, I picked up the hoover and there was no attachment on the end.
Starting point is 00:35:47 And I went, where's your attachment? Where's the end? And she went, oh, I keep them in here. And she walked through to another room and went into a cupboard and got a shoe box out of the cupboard and all of her attachments for the hoover were in that shoe box.
Starting point is 00:35:59 And I went, why? I went, why is that there? And she went, well, because when I go upstairs, I take the hoover and I take this box and I've got all the attachments upstairs with us. Isn't she wonderful? I went, so, but yeah,? She went, well, because when I go upstairs, I take the hoover and I take this box and I've got all the attachments upstairs with this. Isn't she wonderful? I went, so, but yeah, so I went, you go upstairs to use the hoover.
Starting point is 00:36:10 You take that box of attachments and you put the hoover down and then you open that box and you assemble it like a fucking sniper in a movie. Do you know what I mean? Just love it. Your mom must look down on me so much. She didn't understand why I thought it was weird.
Starting point is 00:36:22 I was like, she was like, you're horrible to me. What's the matter? I went, it's just really weird that you just keep them all in that little box in a separate bit. But she's fab like that though. She's really organized. She just loves her little bits and stuff. But it was just, right.
Starting point is 00:36:33 It was like the hoover was in one bit and the attachments in the other. Like, you know, when you say in America, I'm going to say you've got a gun. You keep the gun one place and the bullets in the other place that the kids can't shoot Yeah, why didn't you keep them together? Because she's, I don't know. How many attachments you got? got oh she's got all the attachments like she's got the same hoover as us yeah but she's got all the attachments where's our attachments they're in a box right next to the hoover and i've never used them and i only
Starting point is 00:36:54 got them out when i smashed the end of it so she'll use like all the little attachments like she will literally go oh this carpet's a little bit deeper than the last room different attachment i wish i had the time jinky mom looks at me like a bit of shit do you think when we got married was your mom like a little bit deeper than the last room. Different attachment. I wish I had the time. Do you think your mum looks at me like a bit of shit? Do you think when we got married was your mum like, eh, what's he married?
Starting point is 00:37:11 I know she loves us and I love her, but do you think there is a bit of her that's like, what a scumbag? I don't think so. Probably. I think there is a little bit.
Starting point is 00:37:19 Probably. There will be a little bit. She's well within her eyes to think that. Babadoo babadoo babadoo bah!

Oh, well, okay, have we? Really? Got a complaint email. Right. Oh, no, I don't like complaints. Hi. First of all, may I start by saying I love your podcast.
Starting point is 00:39:10 Oh, that's so, no. So here it comes. Sugar-coated, sugar-coated bitch, come on. I'm a relatively new listener after deciding to preserve my sanity and basically save the lives of those I live with by going on long walks every evening by myself. A friend recommended I give you a listen and as long as i don't mind looking like a right knack i laugh at myself while pounding the pavements of my town i listen happy days where's the complaint my
Starting point is 00:39:33 request is and we always get weird requests for weird stuff of people not liking certain things and being very pernickety with things change your accent accent. No, but we get stuff like that. Yeah, that's what I'm expecting. Don't talk too fast, don't shout, move away from the mic, don't shout away from the mic. You get all, everyone's a fucking critic. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:53 My request is, can I ask you please not to clap on your podcast? Why? Now, I read that and I was annoyed. I was instantly pissed off. Then I read a reason and it's, well, just listen a strange one
Starting point is 00:40:06 and to be honest I don't do it often but I'm not sure if you're aware what it sounds like when played through your headphones or maybe it's just me
Starting point is 00:40:13 so now I'm thinking it hurts her ear she's got sensitive ears she doesn't like the noise whatever let me explain I have an 11 year old son he has recently discovered
Starting point is 00:40:23 that his balls make a noise if he wiggles backwards and forwards hard enough. I know. Of course. It's the noise of them slapping off his butt which makes it even more hilarious. I have warned him that it will end up with bollocks around his ankles if it continues,
Starting point is 00:40:39 but this seems to add to the hilarity. The sound he makes is exactly the sound you both make when you clap on the podcast. That is horrible. Mate, we're so sorry. Like, we're so sorry. I've become accustomed to him randomly creating this noise at every opportunity in the house during lockdown. And his 15-year-old sister has accepted that he will interrupt her virtual nights out with the girls to share his
Starting point is 00:41:08 talent i love him he just so he just runs in and shakes back and forwards and his balls slap off he's also made this noise at 11 he's day and i read by the sounds of things like wow he's an early developer however i am working from home and regularly hold video calls with others in my company. When sharing my screen in a budget meeting, everyone was probably asleep at this point, my son snuck up behind me and began playing his ball butt tune. Thankfully, nobody could see him, however. This, I think, was made worse, where the sound was obviously heard by others in my call. Lots of questions about the noise and what it could have been.
Starting point is 00:41:44 I stupidly ignored it and pretended I hadn't heard the noise and i tried to bring some professionalism back to the call if anyone has a filthy mind i think they may have put two and two together i fucking guarantee you they didn't there's no one in the world who's like coming off that zoom call they're bringing up go do you think that was brenda's 11 year old son slapping his balls off his ass i think it was Oh, do you know what's awful? Like, we've got one of them that's going to be 11 one day and Robin will be, ah, now I like that.
Starting point is 00:42:09 Don't ever tell him about that. I didn't know it was a thing. It sounds like it hurts. That'll hurt that kid. I don't know. I'll say it again. How big are his balls? Well, I think he's suffering
Starting point is 00:42:17 for his heart. I think he needs to go to the doctors. Listen, we've already clapped once in this podcast. I'm really sorry. Let's try now. Just for you. I can't do it forever.
Starting point is 00:42:28 We can't do it forever. But just for you, mate. Right? I'm not going to say your name, obviously. I'm going to keep you anonymous. We'll try and do a clap for the rest of the podcast. I was going to do a clap for that. So that everyone can imagine the balls.
Starting point is 00:42:41 I think she knows what it sounds like. Okay. If you want to hear the clap, think she knows what it sounds like. Okay. If you want to hear the clap, we did it earlier on. Okay. Good. Fair enough. Speaking of balls, I remember Wow. Speaking of balls. I remember. Sorry, is there any other podcast in the world where the segue is, speaking of balls?
Starting point is 00:43:00 Possibly. Probably Peter Crouch I don't think they ever say speaking of balls it's about football though isn't it when we were younger we were staying in a caravan
Starting point is 00:43:11 and my brother had a really bad balls for some reason and so sorry all I remember my brother
Starting point is 00:43:22 no he had something wrong with his balls you just said and me brother had a really bad balls no but we just one of them was bad I think he was only
Starting point is 00:43:33 three or four but all I remember is that he had to do he had to do a handstand for ages to try to sink his ball back I don't know what happened
Starting point is 00:43:41 sorry I'm gonna have to ask me mum no you had to do a handstand he had to do a handstand we were on a do a handstand. We were on a caravan and he was crying and that and my mum had him do a handstand. My mum and dad were like holding him up doing a handstand with no clothes on.
Starting point is 00:43:54 And I think his ball was like going back into place. He was in pain. I think they had to take him to the doctors after that. Goodness me. He might have had tangled balls. You can get that. That might have been what it was. Because you know they're not just in that bag just sitting there. They're connected with the tubes to the back and they can tangle. That might have been what it was. Because, you know, they're not just in that bag, just sitting there. They're connected with the tubes to the back and they can tangle. That might have been what it was.
Starting point is 00:44:09 Well, my mum was a nurse, wasn't she? Well, it doesn't sound like it if her answer was, do a handstand naked. He was always naked, Kev. Imagine what the doctors, imagine what the doctors, oh yeah, yeah,
Starting point is 00:44:20 do a naked handstand twice a day. Thank you, doctor. I shall report you on the way out, no problem. Hello, Rosie and Chris. In a sleepy haze one night, I rolled over in bed and felt something down at my feet. Being ever so tired and sleepy, I couldn't be bothered to sit up and check. So thinking it was a sock or something that had got caught up in the sheets, I proceeded to use my feet to navigate this mystery item up to the top of the
Starting point is 00:44:45 bed so that I could inspect it further. It was a bit warmer and harder than I thought a sock would be, but I carried on anyways. What's the worst it could be, eh? Upon using my feet to pass the item up to my hands, I realised to my horror that it was not a sock at all, but a hard, hot piece of dog poo. My dog had pooed himself in his sleep in the middle of the night, he was blissfully unaware, and I had transported it from the bottom of the bed to the top of the bed using my feet.
Starting point is 00:45:13 Safe to say the dog wasn't allowed to sleep in my bed ever again. My God. Another, another reason why we are not getting a dog. I should stop reading these out. I should stop reading these to you because I don't think we're ever going to get a dog because i don't think it's a sock how do you mistake a bit of dog poo for a sock how do you not smell it how hard and crusty do you let your socks get is my question vile told you i told you about that time when i stayed at a friend's house an old friend's house years ago and the cat i was
Starting point is 00:45:43 sleeping downstairs in the living room on the sofa. A cat did a poo in the litter tree on the upstairs landing and it woke me up at three o'clock in the morning. So I'm sorry, if she can't smell that at the bottom of her bed, then again, go to the doctor because there's something wrong with your nose. If you can't smell a dog's dump in your bed,
Starting point is 00:46:03 then what the hell else is in your bed? Who are you sharing your bed with? If you cannot smell your dog has had a poo in your bed, that's vile. Well, that's that dealt with. I'm sorry, what? I just, it's the way people message it in going, eh, eh, isn't that?
Starting point is 00:46:19 And you go, no, that's really disgusting, actually. It's funny, but it's vile. And if you told me that in real life, I'd go, oh, I think less of you now. I do. Well, we'll keep it anonymous, but we both think less of you now.
Starting point is 00:46:34 Well done. Hiya, Chris and Rosie. Have an embarrassing story for you. Happened to my friend. So my friend went to the doctors in Spain while she was working as a dancer on a cruise ship. She had an appointment to get her...
Starting point is 00:46:46 Sexy. Great. She had an appointment to get her travel vaccinations. I was never tall enough for them. I was always gutted. You weren't... That's... We haven't told you that.
Starting point is 00:46:56 You weren't tall enough to go and get a job on a cruise ship, were you? No, I went for a few of them and they were like, no, you're not tall enough because you basically... You have to be able to fit into the costumes I was about three inches too short I don't actually know
Starting point is 00:47:12 if that this was like this is like 11 years ago that I was going for them I don't think they're allowed to do that anymore really well yeah
Starting point is 00:47:18 because it's like sizist isn't it basically I used to go and they'd be like sorry no to no one I'd be like oh any feedback
Starting point is 00:47:26 because you know when you didn't get an audition you'd ask for feedback i know so do i like honestly tell us why i'm shit please tell me why i'm shit and it and they are got told a couple of times it's just you're too you're not tall enough oh it's like cabin crew all over again yeah not tall enough to be two overhead but at least there's actually a reason for that, cabin crew. This is just when not buying you your own costume. Yeah, you're wearing last year's costume and you're too short and fat. By the way, he has a communal toothbrush.
Starting point is 00:47:54 Welcome aboard. Did I ever tell you about... So I used to have a routine. I remember when I first watched Take Me Out, the Paddy McGuinness thing. Yeah. And I used to have a routine about that because for me, my idea of a nightmare
Starting point is 00:48:04 would be coming down that lift and standing there and they always do like a daft little dance or something and then all the women just they'll turn the lights off and the worst bit of the show is when paddy goes oh half the lights have gone off i'll go and ask them why whoa whoa just fucking leave them i don't want to know. Jesus Christ. It's so true. Do you know what I mean? Why do you find this man repulsive? Why, when you saw this man for a split second, did you immediately plunge yourself into darkness so he couldn't look at you?
Starting point is 00:48:34 Oh my gosh. Speaking of Take Me Out, my friend Jojo was on Take Me Out years ago. And I don't think she ever pressed the button for anyone. No, she was desperate, wasn't she? Desperate Jojo. I don't think she was desperate. I just think she's too nice.
Starting point is 00:48:49 She's actually a really, really lovely person. No, she's lovely. I don't think she ever wanted to be like, you're vile. So she just said yes to all of them. It became like a running joke. And she didn't get a date, did she, bless her? I don't think she got a date in the end. She was on there for ages.
Starting point is 00:49:04 Oh, Jojo. And she's bloody lovely. Oh the end. She was on there for ages. Oh, Jojo. And she's bloody lovely. Oh, God. She's too good for it. So someone's got the doctors in Spain. They're getting the vaccinations. So I'm assuming they must have went out and met the, they must have met the cruise ship at Spain.
Starting point is 00:49:18 Otherwise you get your vaccinations at home. So they must have met it somewhere. Must be going somewhere exciting. Or must be changing ships and going to somewhere. Just so you're all aware as well, this dancer, she'll be over five foot four and she'll probably be size eight to ten. Got you.
Starting point is 00:49:31 That was the criteria. Venomous the way you said that. Jealous. Just want you to know. Very jealous. Just getting an image in. I'm giving the full, we've wrote a book now,
Starting point is 00:49:39 I know how to describe things better. Good. Yeah. Obviously, there was a bit of a language barrier already but after filling out some forms the doctor slapped his thighs while sitting in front of her as if to say right okay let's get this done but having not had travel vaccinations before she took his thigh slapping as a signal to sit on his lap no so he's done you know when you go right yeah
Starting point is 00:50:06 and you give it the slap so he must have done it and then so I've seen doctors do it the slap and then they look around the table for something so she sat
Starting point is 00:50:12 in his lap I don't know what she was thinking but without hesitation as a full grown woman she sat on the doctor's knee it makes me crease to think about
Starting point is 00:50:20 the doctor's face I don't know how they both managed to keep a straight face to finish the appointment it's wonderful that is wonderful unreal that in it reminds me of another story with my brother this is like the kevin winter podcast today naked headstand no not a naked head not a naked i've got a bad knee naked cartwheel son this time is the time when we were in the car
Starting point is 00:50:41 and my brother was sat in his baby seat in the back he was only two and uh me auntie had a big um lab what was he labrador yeah she had a labrador called jack yeah yeah yeah um me mom had gone to run on run up to me nana's up the up the front path jack had bolted out the front door and he my mom had left the car door open and he went and sat on kev's knee just sat there didn't move and kev was like help he just had a massive labrador sat on top of him in a child seat in a child's lesson was he scared no because jack was lush but but it was a bit you know he's heavy and kev was only like two. He had no luck, my Kev, bless him. Probably what happened to his ball.
Starting point is 00:51:29 Dog, Labrador crushed his ball. Naked headstand. Got a question for you here, Chris. How are you then? Hello, Rosie and Chris. I'm sat on my lockdown sofa, just a normal sofa, but it feels all claustrophobic since we've been sat here for weeks. I know that feeling.
Starting point is 00:51:43 I'm after new ones because I'm sick of looking at mine that I have already. You're almost after new sofa. Well, yeah. Hobbies doing work on the laptop while I enjoy the quiet after both kids are in bed until the same old query rears its ugly head and we are having a gated debate about a particular word and its meaning. I was hoping you could shed some light on it and maybe we can get an answer. No office polls available, though, unfortunately,
Starting point is 00:52:05 but we can have one. Us, okay? So here's my question. How many does the word several refer to? My husband says more than three, but I have always felt it should mean six or seven. I've decided to elaborate, so bear with me. Right.
Starting point is 00:52:26 So a couple is two. Do you agree? Do you agree? Yes. A few is three or four. Yes. Weirdly, I would agree with that. I did that in my head just there.
Starting point is 00:52:34 Yeah. A handful is five. Fingers, five. Right. So therefore, several would be six plus. Yes. Yes.
Starting point is 00:52:43 Surely. Yeah? Yes. Right. Yes, surely. Yeah? Yes. Right. Although, who's fucking saying several? That's my main problem. Don't say several. I think I say several.
Starting point is 00:52:53 No, you... There's no way you say several. How many drinks did you have last night, Rosie? I had several. No, arseholes say several. Arseholes who are hungover. Oh, I definitely had... I might have had several martinis last night.
Starting point is 00:53:07 That's what tossers say. Do you think? Yeah, yeah. So, well, should I just say, you wouldn't say, I knew Dave for several years if you'd only known him three. You'd say I've known him a few.
Starting point is 00:53:17 That's really good. That's really good. Who do you think is right and who needs their life reassessing? So he, who thinks what? He thinks, her husband thinks several is like three. Nah, he's wrong. And she thinks it's, yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:30 She's not definitely right, but she's more right than him. Yeah. That's what I would say. That's office Paul. Bam. You've got two here on your side. Sorted. And that's from, oh, hang on.
Starting point is 00:53:39 That's from Lucy. Thanks, Lucy. Babadoo, babadoo, babadoo, bah. I really related to this story. Come on then If you want to hear it Hi Chris and Rosie I have a story
Starting point is 00:53:48 That as soon as I heard it I thought of you Rosie And just had to send it in Well she's obviously done right If you're relating to it Yeah My brother Has a pet bearded dragon
Starting point is 00:53:57 Called George So weird Why? Oh I don't know People who keep snakes And lizards And fucking spiders Robin was asking for one
Starting point is 00:54:04 The other day. He's not getting one. Oh, no. Can't I be living in the same house? Honestly, I would take a dog that's shat in the bed every night over a snake or a lizard. Me too. Sorry about that. Well, no.
Starting point is 00:54:16 I was going to say no offence to people who own snakes and lizards. Offence to you. Offence to you. It's just different strokes for different folks. Well, I'm allowed to find it strange. I find it weird. Well, anyway, he's had George, the dragon. He had this dragon for about five years now
Starting point is 00:54:28 and he absolutely loves him. Okay, little George. Over the last week, George started to show signs of not being well. His colourful complexion, which is usually orange, turned black. Oh, no. He refused to eat anything
Starting point is 00:54:41 and he hadn't had a poo for about a week. Oh, George. Poo-add, George. As much as I don't like them, I don't want any harm to them. You don't want them to be poo-add, do you? No a poo for about a week. Oh, George. Poor George. As much as I don't like them, I don't want any harm to them. You don't want them to be poorly, do you? No, no, no, no, no, no. We were all very concerned about him, so after doing some research, my brother ordered a new set of UV lights, etc., which totaled up to £130.
Starting point is 00:54:59 Goodness. Bloody hell. Expensive little dragon. Yeah, yeah. He also had a video appointment with an exotic vet who agreed he wasn't well and so booked in a personal appointment which they took George to the next morning.
Starting point is 00:55:14 Oh, okay. This is pre-lockdown. Pre-lockdown, right. Even though they did the video call first. That's still good. It is quite good. But I mean, I'll be raging if people can take their dragons to an exotic vet
Starting point is 00:55:23 but we can't take our little boy to get these I'll be I will be writing a letter to Boris tomorrow if this is the crap
Starting point is 00:55:32 I think this is pre-covid I got this a while ago okay then okay I'll be livid quick don't even anyway so at this appointment
Starting point is 00:55:41 after an x-ray and an examination it turns out George is in fact actually a girl. Oh, right. But what's happened to George? Well, she was ill due to the fact she had an egg developing in her ovary. So basically, she was due on her period.
Starting point is 00:56:01 Wow. But how long had he had her?'d she only have one period eh what's happening because she's a lucky little dragon that's what she is um says here so george was sent home with some medicine georgina now georgina apologies georgina and is she's now on the mend with the vet bill totaling up to one that is it 134 quid goodness me That's an expensive period. Goodness me. Wow. Wow. Oh my gosh. So after Georgina basically pretended to die and my brother spent £264 on him.
Starting point is 00:56:33 Heavens. Slash her. He is actually a she and is just due on her period. What an absolute drama queen. But I salute her. Every girl knows the pain. And the question is, this is from Stella, by the way. My question to Rosie is,
Starting point is 00:56:47 what's the most dramatic thing you have done whilst being due on? Oh, God, how long have you got? That is a good question. I don't know. Probably the most dramatic thing, which I do quite regularly, is when I'm in the shower,
Starting point is 00:57:02 I imagine people's funerals and I have a really good cry. That is awful. No, I do. Family, friends, all of them. So you practice cry for people's funerals? I don't practice cry. I just have a really good cry.
Starting point is 00:57:16 I've done it with you a lot. No, I don't find... No, that's really strange. It's only when I'm due on. So why do you... So you have to... So imagining the funeral is the way to get yourself to cry? Nah, I don't find... No, that's really strange. It's only when I'm due on. So why do you... So you have to protect... You have to... So imagining the funeral is the way to get yourself to cry.
Starting point is 00:57:29 No, so basically what's happening is I'm in the shower and it's like the day of the funeral. Right. And I'm having a shower, but I'm in the death zone. So whoever I'm thinking about has died. Right. And I'm just crying my eyes out. That's so weird.
Starting point is 00:57:44 I know, I can't help it. I don't know whether it's part, a little bit of an actress has died. Right. And I'm just crying my eyes out. That's so weird. I know. I can't help it. I don't know whether it's part, a little bit of an actress in us. Right. And a little bit of drama and hormones. It's all kind of comes into one. That's the darkest shit. So I do just imagine that's very,
Starting point is 00:57:57 people who have, I'm talking, you've been there. Jesus! It's horrible, Chris. I've really cried. Do you never see me after the shower sometimes and I'm really upset?
Starting point is 00:58:04 I thought it was just water. No. You've got soap in your eye. I've really cried. Do you never see me after the shower sometimes and I'm really upset? I thought it was just water. No. I've got soap in your eye. Do you have tears? Oh. Obviously, when I get out, I have to, you know, normal. Everything's fine. So weird.
Starting point is 00:58:11 But I do do that quite a lot. I hope other people do that. No, no, no. I don't think anyone else does that. No, I think they do. No, no, no, no. I think I should do. Jesus.
Starting point is 00:58:20 Babadoo, babadoo, babadoo, bah. Hi, Rosie and Chris. I have a story about my mum. Thankfully, she doesn't listen to the podcast. She'd be fuming if she heard I'd sent this in Oh My mum was born in the 1960s In a hospital in Dublin My nan and grandad lived in a small town
Starting point is 00:58:37 About 40 minutes away from the hospital There was another family who lived on the same road as them Who had a baby girl in the same hospital A few days after my mum was born. Both baby girls were given the same first name. I won't say the real name, but let's pretend they were called Mary. Got you. My nan stayed in the hospital for a week and was sent home.
Starting point is 00:58:56 The doctors told my nan they had decided to keep my mum in longer and she was kept in hospital for another three weeks. Oh, so baby's in hospital. Right. The mam's gone home. Right. The other lady had her baby, Mary,
Starting point is 00:59:11 were discharged after a week and they went home. Right. So the other lady who lives in the streets had her baby. She's gone home with her kid but the baby of hers
Starting point is 00:59:18 is left to the mam. Yeah. The mam's left her baby in for three weeks. It's the 60s, babes. Like. Didn't give a fuck, did they? Just, well,
Starting point is 00:59:24 it was just different then. You just had to do different things. Three, the 60s, babes. Like. Didn't give a fuck, did they? Just, well, it was just different then. You just had to do different things. Three, the baby won a free holiday. Yeah. Be quite nice. Right. When my mum was discharged,
Starting point is 00:59:34 she was brought home in an ambulance. My nan and grandad didn't have a car at the time. The ambulance brought my mum home but they brought her up
Starting point is 00:59:42 to the other house, to the other couple on the road who had the other baby Mary at the same time. Wow. nan. So the ambulance brought my mum down to my nan and grandad's house and explained how they had gotten confused with the two Marys from the same area. This was all fine and my nan and grandad were just glad to have their baby Mary home. My brothers and I are convinced though that the hospital staff had it right and picked baby Mary up, looked at her details and brought her to the right home and that the other couple had been given the wrong baby Mary up, looked at her details and brought her to the right home in that the other couple had been given the wrong baby Mary to bring home in the first place. Jesus!
Starting point is 01:00:31 Now see, who knows? This gets brought up a good bit at family get-togethers and it's usually brushed off that we're just trying to make a big deal out of nothing and the whole situation wasn't as dramatic as we're making out. My question is, have you any stories of your family that are brought up now and again big deal out of nothing and the whole situation wasn't as dramatic as we're making out my question is have you any stories of your family that are brought up now and again that possibly aren't true but everyone just loves telling stories over and over again jesus that's that is so interesting though isn't it so it could be the wrong they could have had a dna test well no i don't think
Starting point is 01:00:59 so they could have been bringing up the wrong kids. The wrong Mary. Because why would the ambulance have gone to the other house? I don't know. So the must... I couldn't rest. No. That would eat away at you. You couldn't just push that away. You would...
Starting point is 01:01:15 I would have to get a test. Yeah. Yeah. Very interesting. It made me think about something, though. What? I don't know if I've talked about this on here, but my grandad, who's passed away now jimmy granddad jimmy absolutely love him you never met
Starting point is 01:01:29 him did you no no he's lush but anyway he was whenever we went on holiday all the locals would like speak to him in spanish or whatever because he just he just looked spanish yeah it's very strange anyway dark hair dark skin yeah yeah yeah yeah so we were always thinking i was like get in yeah a bit of spanish in this like i just found it dead exciting i was like oh late like always thought just interesting do you know what i mean i just think it's really interesting so i've always told everyone that i've met a few months ago my sister kate got a DNA test done for her birthday. Yes. For her husband.
Starting point is 01:02:07 Turns out, absolutely no Spanish. No? Nothing. Not at all? Nothing? What is she? We are... Oh, it's so boring.
Starting point is 01:02:15 I have to hate... I mean, your dad is the whitest man on the planet. Well, I know, but we thought there was an interesting story there because it's winter, so we were like, ooh, that sounds a bit German. Right. Thought I might have had a bit German in me. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:02:27 Now, honestly, we're like, I think we are 50% like English, a bit of Scottish, a bit of Welsh and a tiny bit of Irish. Excellent. Shit. Utter shit. Honestly, I was gutted when Kate told me. And then I said. Honestly, genuinely think that your dad is so white
Starting point is 01:02:47 he just drowned it all out it's all just been drowned out by your dad's whiteness honestly gutted I was your dad's like a chalky he went on my stag do
Starting point is 01:02:56 and everyone just he was wearing like a coat and long trousers and a hat around the pool well he burned yeah oh yeah I'm just
Starting point is 01:03:03 oh honestly I was gutted me and Kate were very very disappointed I even offered to get one done myself but apparently we've got the same DNA Chris I'm embarrassed I've said it for years I think I've actually said
Starting point is 01:03:17 sometimes I pick up languages really well because I'm just so do you want to hear this one that i found a few weeks ago that i haven't brought myself to stay in yet yes okay come on let's cheer everyone up no no it's really grim we'll see it might not stay in but we'll see okay when my partner and i first came back from traveling i moved down from newcastle to be with him in london oh just to clarify this is the second story that this lady has sent. Okay.
Starting point is 01:03:46 The first one's also very good, but we'll do that next week. Ooh. Because it involves poo, and we can't be having too much disgust in us. Fair enough. I moved down from Newcastle, cautioned, to be with him in London. We were living with his mum for a few months while we got back on our feet and found jobs. It was all brilliant. Got you. This was until me and my partner had sex
Starting point is 01:04:09 one evening. Decent sex. Decent breasts. Decent sex. Decent breasts. Decent sex. With decent breasts. Great. In brackets. This is important because bear in mind, I went through all of this for some bang average lay. No, it was good. Okay. It was good. Once we finished,
Starting point is 01:04:25 I did the standard slip off to the loo and freshen up that we all do whilst he sorted himself out. Got you. Okay. He knocked on the bathroom door
Starting point is 01:04:34 all sheepish and proceeded to tell me that the condom had slipped off. I thought, oh God, oh no. Turns out
Starting point is 01:04:42 the condom was actually inside me. I tried to fish it out but shock, the condom was actually inside me. I tried to fish it out, but shockingly, the condom had managed to get stuck on my coil. Oh my god! What's wrong with everyone? I had to call my partner back in. So there I was, laying spread eagle on the bathroom floor, being fingered by my boyfriend as he slouched around trying to rip out a used condom. Still with no luck.
Starting point is 01:05:06 Chris, it gets worse. No. Yep. After a good ten minutes of panic, there was only one more option. I had to wrap a towel around myself, slink downstairs and knock on my boyfriend's mum's bedroom door. Oh! friend's mom's bedroom door oh i explained to her and her husband great what had happened and that i desperately needed help in getting to either the walk-in or a and a to my horror she said let me have a go and then we can decide what to do shut the no way no way so we headed back to
Starting point is 01:05:42 the top floor no she said yes She rolled up her sleeves And said pop your leg up on the sink And as I did She then crouched down on her knees Especially Like a mechanic Essentially she was staring down the barrel of my vagina From the least flattering angle possible
Starting point is 01:06:00 Goodness She then shoved her fingers up my vagina Swirled round, located the condom and proceeded to yank it out with three hard tugs. No! I then heard a plop. Nah. This was the noise of a used condom
Starting point is 01:06:16 filled with her son's semen falling on the tiled floor. I can't. She then stood up, washed her hands, nodded and left me standing naked from the waist down with the condom culprit I can't. Oh my God. Oh my God. I told you it was bad. Oh my God.
Starting point is 01:06:39 That got... That started awful. I know. And it got worse and worse and worse and... i think i'd buy a mother-in-law that i'd rather go to hospital i think i'd rather die no word of a lie if when we were first going out if there was something that happened to us that could only be solved by your mom essentially wanking us off i'd rather die it's not it's not. It wasn't sexual.
Starting point is 01:07:05 Still a thing. Still there. That's awful. I'd rather die. I know, but I think her mum works in the medical profession because there's no way you'd be like, right, come on. Jesus. She's either a vet.

Why have you even told us that? What's the matter with you? All right, stay safe. Bye. Lovely question. No, I don't know if it's a lovely question.
Starting point is 01:08:34 I take massive issue with him lumping Easter in with Christmas there. Did he put Easter and Christmas in the same? He went, your king of your holidays is your Christmas and your Easter. Easter's not up there with king of holidays. You're stupid, Carl. I'm not doing your gig anymore because you're stupid. I'll still do the gig. I'd say the most pointless one is probably Troopin' the Colour.
Starting point is 01:08:54 I guarantee you someone listening is raging now and we're going to get an email. What is it? What is it? I don't know. It won't go out of my diary. It won't go. Comes up every year. Yeah.

Starting point is 01:09:42 Since the 17th century Although its roots go back to much earlier. On the battlefield, the regiment's colours or flags were used as rallying points. Okay, well that makes it sound a lot more exciting. Who the fuck's it in my diary for? I don't know. Why are Apple going, right, everyone in Britain?
Starting point is 01:09:58 It's that thing of it's an American company, so they've probably looked through the data and went, oh, that's probably quite important. They'll love that. The British will love that. They'll be all over that. That must be their Independence Day. No, it's not.
Starting point is 01:10:08 No one knows what it is. Get it off the phone. We like St. Patrick's Day better than St. George's Day. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We'll like that. Love Christmas. Easter's gone really mental recently because everyone just loves to do Easter egg hunts for the kids
Starting point is 01:10:20 because they're better parents than we are. One upmanship on Instagram is all Easter eggs is. I think the most pointless one genuinely bonfire night yeah shite shite shite what's the point i know yeah it is shite it's rubbish oh by the way if you've got a cat or a dog they're gonna be gutted for a week yeah definitely yeah you've got a baby that's not getting they're going to be gutted for a week.

Starting point is 01:10:50 Yeah, go on then, set them off now. Why? Do you know I once found out how much a big fireworks display costs? Right. And it really upset us. Upset you? Just they're so expensive. Is it upsetting because you knew you'd never be able to afford to do one yourself?
Starting point is 01:11:04 Possibly. Yeah. So expensive. How much? because you knew you'd never be able to afford to do one yourself? Possibly. So expensive. How much? Like a big, big display? Yeah. Like thousands. Really?

Starting point is 01:11:35 What are you doing? Why are we so miserable? No, I've always had this. Even at my happiest, I said fireworks can fuck off. I said this from day one. The loudness and annoyingness of them, what they look like,
Starting point is 01:11:47 doesn't outweigh that enough. I don't mind a firework. Nah, like I've said before, unless they can do that big one, that transcendent dragon off Lord of the Rings that Gandalf did. Pack it in. Pack it in, you're wasting your time.
