Hello, welcome back to Should I Delete That.
I'm in Clarkson.
I'm Katty Clarkson.
I've got Kat!
Aye!
She went down a hit at the live shows and we thought, let's immortalise it.
Let's get her on tape!
Thank you very much for having me.
It's a true last minute bit of flattery.
It's very last minute.
She said, I need you.
I've asked everyone else
It was a bit last minute, yeah
It's not what I had planned for today
But I can't believe
This was Daisy's idea
And it's such a good idea
So you didn't even think of me
No
I don't know
Okay, so today isn't it just me episode
I know you don't listen to the podcast
So let me talk you through the format
Do you though?
I do sometimes
No, occasionally I don't listen to any podcast
That's not the defence
But how on brand
How on brand
Okay yeah, that is on brand
Yeah
So caveat before I let you know
we're getting into today, although you've probably seen the episode title, but we're
recording in Katz Flat, which is very cool and very fucking noisy. So if you hear anything
and everything, that's what that is. I apologise for the background noise. There is a fool literally
right across the ways. I'm surprised they let you live within that. Shish now. Don't put that
out there. Shish now. Not true. Uads. Okay, so Kat and I, despite being blood siblings and relatively
close in age. Like it's only five years between us
are completely different
generations. Which I
didn't realize until today. I just
assumed that we were one. No.
Finlo and I, our brother and I
are millennials. No, he's not a millennial. Yes, he is.
And you, a little weirdo,
are Generation Z. The fact that you called it
Generation Z. You're a Gen Z. Big, fat
loser. You're a Gen Z baby.
So, today's
episode is a
conversation. It's like,
like, it's like talk TV vibes, call me Pearce Morgan, we're going to have a debate about
the difference, who's better, who will win? I don't know, it doesn't matter, but who will win if
we were competitive? It does matter. If we were competitive, don't be dull. Who would win?
So, okay, basically I just want to discuss the difference in Gen C and Millennials. And you
highlighted the first one already that you don't listen to podcasts. I don't know if I'm alone
in that, but I know a lot of people don't. I know it's much more of millennial things.
Don't say this to me as my whole career.
Don't be like, oh, there's a whole generation.
There's a whole generation.
I don't know.
It might be a whole generational thing.
It might not.
So, basically, the youngest millennials were born between 1994 and 1996.
So that's me and Finn.
That's that you just don't really count, I don't think.
Although you do lean into it.
I know everything about me is millennial.
I did the millennial pause before I start recording.
Oh, do you?
I was going to bring that up.
I love my odd boots.
Oh, there's nothing wrong with that.
Comfort is key.
Comfort's key.
But I like, I like all my basic little things.
I like my lattes.
I like the beige stuff.
Stanley Cup.
I've gone, but this is confusing because I, yeah, I've got Stanley Cup.
I've got hook, line and sinker for the Molly May aesthetic,
but I've just realized she's probably a Gen Z.
Yeah, but she's what, she's what millennials want to be,
that sort of, oh, that's tragic.
She is what you aspire to.
She's the goal, yeah.
But she's unachievable.
unachievable standards, because she's too young.
Actually, how old is she?
Young?
I bet she's like 40, but not telling anyone.
I know, she's your age.
That's what I keep thinking about Kylie Jenner,
by the internet, is convinced she's like 40.
Yeah.
No, she throws me off every time I see her face and like,
mm-hmm, something going on.
She's looking, she's looking good.
She's looking amazing.
She's still, oh, she's not, no mind.
Timothy, Timothy, Timothy, that's it, yeah.
Timothy Shalamee.
Do you remember, do you even, I was going to say,
Do you remember writing on VHHH?
This is another BuzzFeed quiz.
I always scrape BuzzFeed when I'm at the bottom of the barrel.
Do you?
I love BuzzFeed quizzes.
I actually really do.
That doesn't feel like Gen Z behavior.
No, it's not.
But bear in mind, I'm also, I'm a couple of years away from being a young millennial.
I'm an old Gen Z.
And when we were at school, like, pop buzz, pop buzz quizzes are amazing.
Looking at your eyeliner, there is no way anyone would believe that I was a millennial.
That was the most millennial I've ever felt was I went to dinner a couple of,
I was going to say months.
Yeah, let's be honest, years ago.
The other day.
And yeah, the other day, in 192.
I was trying to, I was trying to do eyeliner like you do eyeliner.
And I sent girl out like to photo and I was like, can I pull this off?
And she just replied, going, no, take it off immediately.
And I was like, okay.
And I did.
It's good to have friends that are honest.
Yeah.
I didn't see the photo.
Do you have it?
I did.
It wasn't great.
It wasn't good.
I really want to do it, but it's just.
We have the same eye shape.
You can do this very easily.
and so time poor that it's such a big risk
that it's like if I commit to that
it takes you two minutes because you can do it
practice makes perfect
but you just look so if I think genuinely cat
if I just started doing that
like so listeners sorry
if you can't obviously if you don't know what cat looks like
where have you been fucking beautiful
she's so stonning but she basically
does she looks like me but with brown hair
but she does
and fet
Well, we're not going to lie to the people, are we?
So you, okay, so for listeners, Kat does the eyeliner thing, the cool, like, the really cool
I'm not just going to go on the lash line, I'm going up, I'm going out, I'm going in the
middle, I'm going over the top, I'm coming up to the brows, like I, but, okay, genuinely
straight face, you see me, like, you come over, you know what I, you're like, I'm in my leggings,
my hair's a mess
I've got a kid on my hip
and I've got that eyeliner
you'd be like
Yeah that's cool
You wouldn't
You'd be like you're alright
Look
You'd worry
You'd talk
You'd call mommy on the way home
I know you would
And you'd go
She's going through something
There's something
Happening
No
I think it's like
A fun little thing
Of it just like
Because I can wear the most boring
Outfit ever
And I do have to
Sometimes
But I always like to have
A little bit of eyeliner
Or something
Or like my rings
Or something
Just to be like
I've still got it
I've still got it
I am different, you know?
I love that.
Find your thing.
Don't have my thing.
It's like when you got a friend
or I got a fringe.
You're like, right.
No, get your own thing.
Piss up.
For listeners,
can we just
go into pause
and zoom in on that story
because I wept.
She was so angry.
I was really upset.
Okay, so if you've been following me
for a while,
you'll know that I got a fringe last year.
Big mistake, huge.
That was not the first time I've made it.
In 2016, on a whim, I went into the hairdressers.
Now, for context, Katty was having her birthday party in April,
despite the fact her birthday was in November, right?
So it was.
So I didn't feel like it was your birthday.
Like, I didn't feel like...
It was like my special day.
No, I got that, but I wasn't going to be like,
I'm going to ruin Katz's birthday by getting a fringe.
I went to the hairdressers to get my hair done the day of the party.
As one does.
As one does.
Yeah.
And the hairdresser went, do you want a fringe?
Now, with hindsight, I should sue
because they should never ask that on the spot.
My brunette fat sister looks good with a fringe.
I guess I will too.
Yes, that's exactly what I said.
Well, that's a word.
How did you know?
And so I said to us like, yeah, fuck it, I'll get a fringe.
Got one.
And I left for hair dress for St. Gatia.
So on the bottom step about and you cried.
Because mum got one too.
And then you were like, everyone.
Well, this is a joke.
This was my thing.
Before I had the eyeliner, it was my thing.
I had a fringe.
Although, because I have curly hair
and I wanted the Lily Allen fringe
so I blowdried this fringe
to with an inch of its life.
It didn't look good.
And then I gave myself stress alopecia.
So I was balding.
But it was, it's a real cautionary tale.
So don't get jealous.
Don't get a fringe.
There's so much to it.
Don't get a fringe.
There's never a happy outcome of that.
Lily Allen doesn't have one anymore.
And I think we should learn from that.
Yeah.
I bet she's bald.
Bald as a cue ball.
She blow-dried it to death.
What is it?
She's bored.
She's bored.
Just open up Lily.
Lily Alice bald.
I don't know why we're slating it.
We love Lily Allen.
I love Lily Allen.
I love Lily Allen.
I love Lily Allen.
I love her so much.
Have you seen her house on the vanity fair?
I know, I know.
Carpet a bathroom.
Gorgeous.
Only in this instance, though.
Yeah, okay.
Carpeting a bathroom is a road decision.
Disgusting.
But only if you go to the bathroom,
like you use it like once a year.
Do you want a confession that I just know you're going to be fine with?
Yeah.
All I weed on the carpet yesterday, I did not do anything about it.
Pretend that I didn't see it.
But you'd be fine with it.
Regretting it.
I just wanted you to sit in silence for a pit and know that you just told everyone there.
Yeah, I know.
I can't judge.
I can't judge.
I know you can't.
We've all been there.
Yeah.
I remember weighing on the carpet when I was seven and I never told anyone at home.
Which carpet?
It's gone now.
It was replaced.
It was outside of my room.
Yeah, because you pissed on it.
No, if it was wrong.
Outside your room?
Our room.
No, no, no, no, not outside our room.
My old room when I was late before,
when you were like, not there.
And I...
Not there.
When you were small,
I remember I was desperate for a week.
And I never told anyone this.
I waited about 20 years to admit this.
But I was desperate for the point, no, no.
I thought, I think I told everyone in the last year.
Anyway, I think I called a conference and told the group.
Not you.
But I remember being desperate.
And I was running out of my old room.
And I was running.
down to the bathroom, I ran, and I was so desperate that we just fell out as I was going,
and I was leaking, and I weed all over the carpet.
So you fell, I had that once when, about the same age, 16, no, about seven, I was, we were skiing,
and I was going up the tea lift, and I was about to piss myself, and I just pissed myself,
and I did the rest of the day skiing covered in, like, and it got really cold, but, like,
it was lovely to start with, because I pissed myself when I was really cold, and I was, oh, nice,
what a treat, toasty, and then, um, and, um, and, um, and it got really cold, um, and, um,
Did you tell anyone?
No.
God, God, God, no.
Soaked in piss.
And no, obviously, no one's called like wash salopets after one day of skiing.
So I think I wore pissy salapest, for a week.
It was my brand.
It was my signature scent.
I can't believe, we just, I can't believe we've left the fringe thing already.
I can't even be blessed left the millennial thing already.
I know.
I know, sorry.
I can't believe you cried when I got a fringe, though.
Yeah.
It was, I hated it.
I regretted it.
You look so good. That's why I was so upset.
I had it down for one day because I had the same problem and it just went doing.
Yeah.
Like I got frizzy and went curly.
We don't have...
No, we don't have the hair for a fridge.
But the hairdresser should have said that.
She should have said it.
She should have said, there's some curls here.
Her dress is a terrible idea.
Although, interesting fact, I learned recently that only like 99...
Like 99% of hairdressers aren't trained to cut curly hair.
Yeah.
Because you went to a specific...
I go to a specific place.
Shout out unruly curls.
please book me in for an appointment before I go on holiday.
They're being quite tricky about that.
I think I've got one. It's fine.
But yeah, no, if you've got curly hair,
find a hairdresser that does curly hair specifically
because it'll change your life.
Yeah, your hair does it look really good.
Well, I've straightened it today.
Oh my God, this BuzzFeed quiz is really tragic.
What do you think?
I think it's a giff of Schmidt from Mugh girl,
which is already tell her.
Yeah, I love him.
I love him.
I fancy him an unholy amount.
I fancy him.
I fancy Nick.
I get it, but he's not my guy.
No, fair enough.
We all fancy Schmidt, though.
Yeah, we all fancy Schmidt.
There's just something about it, my God.
And otherwise it's Ruth.
Ruff?
Got up on the Ruff.
Maga Chuttony.
Yeah, the chuttony.
Every time that, I don't, I don't...
A what, Ben?
No!
Jackal!
I'm in my life.
And every time we're sitting in the shop, I'm like, chuttony.
Chuttony.
Okay, the ruff.
The quiz, what do you think of when you hear the words TikTok?
And the options are...
Oh, no.
It's a place of Kesha.
Oh, no.
All the app.
TikTok round the block
Are those the lyrics?
Are you kidding?
TikTok on the clock
What did I say?
Round the block
No I'm sure she said that at some point
TikTok round the block
Sorry, I'm just remembering what Jenny taught me
Oh
Oh gosh
I can't
I just can't be doing with Jennifer Lopez
Why?
For the same reason I can't be doing with Justin Timberlake
Very different
Retreat into a cave
and never come back.
I hate this.
This is the least feminist thing
I've ever heard you say.
Oh, it has absolutely nothing to do with her being...
It has absolutely nothing to do with her being a woman.
It's everything to do with her being annoying.
Why is she annoying?
Oh, God.
Have you seen that film that she's done recently?
Nope.
Watch that and you'll change your tune very quickly.
I don't know, man. I don't know.
Okay, can I ask, nothing to do with the age?
What do we thinking of Miley Cyrus's rebrand?
Because I'm obsessed.
I think she looks fantastic.
Doesn't she look fantastic?
I really admire her for the way that she just puts a brand new outfit on and abandons an entire personality.
Yeah, I think that's really cool.
Yeah, it's moving on from the fringe, it's the eyeliner era.
She's just doing what you do.
It's exactly the same.
She probably cried when somebody else got their hair.
Noah Cyrus came in with a brown pixie cart and she wept, yeah.
Someone else grinded up on Robert Thick, Robert Fick, Robin Thick.
What was he called?
Robin.
What was his name Fick?
What was he called?
Do we all just accept that his last name was Thick?
No, what's his name? What's his name?
Martin, Thick.
No, it wasn't Martin, it was Robin. It was... Blurbed lines.
Robin Thick?
What's the same?
Shut up. That's not the dumbest name I've ever heard.
I think that is his name.
Ah! Robin Thick!
I knew it!
Isn't he Canadian?
No, he's American.
Nothing wrong with that.
Yeah, no, that whole thing was really problematic with hindsight.
That song was...
Wild.
But no one came for Farrell on it, and actually,
Miley's just done a new song with Ferald
Ferald's got his finger in quite a few pies
He always pops up
Do you know who sings the chorus
On Whereas the Love by Black I Peas?
Yeah
But I don't remember off the tip of my time
Don't tell me
But if you really hear it and you're in your head
But he's uncredited
I know but I can't remember
Wait bear with me
Do Finlow tell you?
No, yes, yeah
Someone's told me recently
Creditor to Finlo
our brother for this fact
But it will blow your mind
He's already been mentioned once in this episode
Who is it?
Justin Timberlick
Fuck of course it is
Yeah
Wilde apparently wrote it
Well wrote bits of it
He would say that though
He would
God I hate it
I don't hit anyone
Waste of Energy
But
It's a fantastic
I gave myself
The biggest
Ick of my life
Watching that video
of him and his cargo pants
Doing his dancing
Is it the one in front of Brutty Spears
Where he's like
Buhrudda
That one
No it wasn't that one
But he's his
show. But you know, oh, can I just
can I tell you a confessional? Very quickly,
Enrique and Galasius, um, humping the floor at his
concerts. That's disgusting.
Carry on. Um, the man
from Imagine Dragons has really balked up. I wish we'd
seen him in this era. What do you mean he's really bulked up?
I remember very distinctly seeing, for some reason
I saw Imagine Dragons like three times in one year.
I'm not even now as a fan. You're a huge fan.
I went with you twice. He popped
the hood all three times and I remember thinking
fuck me.
Yeah. Whoa.
Whoa. Whoa. Now I know why he went three times.
Fucking great
I'm not sure you're the genesis
you think you are, I think you are an old
like I think you're a, I think you are a mother
and not a boomer and trapped in a
no I'm I believe
I'm an eccentric old man
from like the 70s trapped inside of my body
the way that I speak sometimes
you are as brown trout
I do wear a lot of brown
I wear a lot of brown
to go back to Justin Timberlake
oh god, boy Alex
tried to buy tickets
to go and see him in concert because he loves him
and it was £600 for him to go by himself.
And he was really weighing it up.
I was like, yeah, babe, go for it.
Oh, I could just imagine him.
By himself.
By himself.
It's like the time he got ticket,
he got one ticket to go and see Youngblood.
No, he didn't.
He didn't go in the end because it's something to do with Arlo.
Do you not like Youngblood?
I genuinely have absolutely no idea.
Every single opinion I've had on him,
I feel like has been influenced by the mass public
and I've had no chance to form
I know he's done some weird shit
I don't know what that shit is
so I don't want to form an opinion
but I did see a clip of him
spitting into his hand
and rubbing it into his hair
and thinking it was sexy
and I was like no that's gross
I thought you thought it was sexy
is that okay
whatever flicking you made
no
not like a pissy salopets
I wasn't doing that for sex appeal
I was cold and I needed it away
coming in on the hygiene
no
I like Youngblood's music
I should have gone with Alex at the concert
Should have.
What jeans do you prefer?
Loose or skinny?
I know the answer to that.
I like a flare, so a little bit of both.
Yeah, kind of on the air.
Yeah, I suppose loose.
I really like the look of, like,
girls with, like, a bit of a tummy
wearing low-wasted trousers.
Big fat agree.
I thought you were going to see something else.
No.
I saw a video, obviously the comments were fucking horrendous,
but I saw a video of a girl
like with her jeans kind of like loki undone
their baggy jeans and it's like the Rihanna
like pregnancy emulation
but this girl wasn't pregnant
she was just biving and she looked so cool
and I was really inspired by that and I actually
on the back of it bought myself a pair of loose jeans
and I'm just going to wear it with a little crop top
and I'm just going to have a bit of tummy ends. It's going to be great
good isn't that fun
I think it looks fantastic yeah me too
I feel like I mean I could personally
I could never
but also because my pants always be sticking out
because I love a heart like a big Grammy pant
I do not understand low waist of pants
No, no
I know, no, God no
You know, you know when you play boggle
And you've got like the hourglass timer
Yes
I look exactly like one of those
You could have just said an hourglass timer
But I love that you fit for the specification
Of a boggle timer
Like I didn't think you're very young
I don't know if you were going to call the stopw
Bongle
I'm joking
I'm fantastic
A stop watch
What's your first phone?
It was an iPhone
You got really pissed off of me
But I didn't have a sim card in it
I literally was just playing this game
Oh yeah you had my pub touch
for a while.
Yeah.
We're popping bubble wrap.
God, that was a good game.
God, that was a good game.
God, that was a good game.
Yeah, so your first, me and you got iPhones
in the same year and I remember just being like,
you don't know.
Yeah, we also got a fringe in the same year.
Lots of things happen, Ed.
Move past it.
I was so angry.
Yeah.
Do you remember anybody's phone numbers off by heart?
Yes.
Mine.
Is that it?
Mothers.
Is that it?
The home phone number,
and I can remember the end of yours
because it's got a nice little jingle.
to it. Yeah, it does. If you read it out,
I'll kill you. But it's got such a great...
No, no, no, I just remember something else, but it's
probably a Gen Z reference that you wouldn't get.
Try me.
I have a structured settlement and I need
cash now. Call J.G.
Wentworth. 877 Cash now.
What the fuck?
There's a whole generation of people
that just know that.
The funny thing is, is I don't even think it's a Gen Z thing.
I think it's, um...
I think Americans in their 60s.
It's like an advert from, I don't know.
You've warped my perception of a whole generation
because I just think,
oh, there must be a Genesee thing.
It's like, oh no, it's just you.
I can just guess like you
to believe it the weirdest shit.
I think you might have done already.
Maybe you'll never know.
That's one secret.
I'll never know you love me.
I love that show.
I gave up on it.
What?
I gave up on it.
I found it tiresome.
I found it very taxing.
You're very taxing.
How easy is your life?
That's what taxed you.
Oh, it's such a hard shit.
That's when I started watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
That's the difference between this, because I've never seen that.
What a show.
Where does you give up on Gossip Girl?
Oh, literally like, midway through season two, I think.
What?
So you didn't see Jenny's rebellion?
You didn't see the greatest love story of all time.
You didn't see Serena going off the ral.
That's all you need.
I honestly
that's my comfort show I love it
I love it so much
I'm on Gossip Girl TikTok
although I have to say
I've recently found myself on Ed Westwick TikTok
and I wish I wasn't there
why
such a nice guy
like I'm sure he's so cool
so handsome
say like get it
yeah but shit me
have you seen this
he's like sub-tick-Tac
don't know anything it's just
oh oh god no
and I actually think
that must be very frustrating for an actor
to be have done one thing for so long that you're only that character
for the rest of your life shallay girl
yeah he's charley girl to me he's so good in charley girl yeah
but to be holy shit i've a natural i love it when he says that every time i watch that
he's going to say it soon but every time how often do you watch sale a girl
frequently i'd love to watch that with you if i didn't have places to be that's exactly
what i'd like to do this after oh wouldn't that be nice alas um
any time to get there anymore not since the be
don't you start
you fucking love her
I know
I would love
we can all watch that I was
she's almost old enough
to fully appreciate that
I don't be told
I love Bill Nye
I love Bill Nye
I love Bill Nye
I love he's in that
oh my god
do you know how
every time
what do you see him
no but I commented
on Richard E. Gras
in the band post
and he liked it
I know you told me
you told me because I texted you
I can't remember what it was
but I texted you
with like
some fairly important news or something
and you responded being like,
wish I could respond, but I'm far too important.
Ritchie Lee Grant, just like my collar.
Richard E. Grint.
Richie Grint.
Just like made common.
It was a good comment.
Now, this I do think is quite millennial
and gentsy differentiating.
Where do you part your hair?
The natural laws of beauty
tell me I should part it on the side,
but I am a slave to my generation
and I part it down the middle.
Yeah, see, I'm a slave to your generation too.
I've become a middle parting gun.
However, cowlick, I have a huge one.
A big widow's peak, a big cowlick,
and this horrible little pubic...
Do you know, embarrassed, I used to be about my cowlick?
Because it was called a cow lick.
Like, I used to get...
Like, I'd see my friends without them,
and I'd be like, oh, God, I'm so jealous
if you were just, like,
like, not licked by cow's hair.
Yeah.
I used to be so jealous.
Yeah, to be that I was jealous of everyone's hair.
You've got the coolest hair?
No, I had low porosity hair.
You've got a lot of names for what's...
going on, your widows peak, your low perosity, you cowlick, everything.
I have to know everything about it because it is a cruel mistress and it cannot be
tamed. I love your hair. Thank you. I've always thought you've got great hair. Thank you. It's
because I put a lot of time and effort and sadly a lot of money into it as well. Not today. It looks
shit today. It looks shit today. It doesn't make shit today. How do you take a photo?
What? I thought you were genuinely asking. I was like, oh God. No, this is like, this is like
big Gen Z. Oh, it's like, it's like, it's like,
like the thing that like, okay, do the heart, do the heart thing with your hands.
Are you going to do it wrong?
No, I'm going to do this.
Yeah, that's the, I can't do this.
I remember doing...
What am I supposed to do with my thumbs?
Wait, look like...
I didn't do it, do it your way again?
Yeah, I remember doing that once and putting it on Instagram and you commented in it, this is really embarrassing.
No, I didn't.
Yes, you did.
I was probably talking about something else.
No, you were.
No, you weren't.
It was just a photo of my hand.
No, I couldn't have done.
Yeah, I put a heart...
Wait, was this years ago?
Yeah.
Oh, God, yeah, no, I do remember that.
It's because you, I think it's because you edited it really heavily.
I know, I was really proud of it.
It was like, in the big, like, it was in the Alamann and it was the sunset for your hands.
Yeah, and I was, yes.
And I was so proud of the photo.
Like, it was like, I'd really up, like, it was just off my hands, the sun coming through it.
Obviously, I'd up the contrast, I'd up the saturation, probably put a little filter on it.
It was 2016, it's what we did.
Yeah.
And you, okay, but let me put a picture for you.
This is really embarrassing.
I was feeling cut.
I just got a new fringe and I was going to shit over everything else that everyone else was doing.
God, because it's going to be.
Yeah.
You're bad.
I was going through something.
And look, I didn't even want the fringe.
I spent so long with a headband on.
I spent years with a headband on trying to get that.
Yeah, well.
Oh my gosh.
So Gen Z's when they go to hold the phone,
they just put their hands flat to their head.
That's silly.
This doesn't feel like a Gen Z thing.
What's the one below me?
Like a Gen X and a Gen Alpha.
No, Gen X is the older ones.
Sorry, Magpie just flew by.
Morning.
See, that's what I mean.
That's not Gen Z behavior.
It's sensible behavior.
It is, yeah.
You've always going to say hello to the Magpies.
Yeah, no, but that's just,
that's cute
this is stupid
it's a really bad
method of communicating
on a podcast
while we discuss
things that we're doing
with our hands
ha
um
oh I can't be able to explain
it you know what we're talking about
thumb and a pinky
or just you're the palm of your hand
there we go
always gonna live on their phone
like by that generation
I think we all need to stop
being so scared and sad about it
and just roll with it
and try and make the best out of a bad situation
I actually agree
it's actually not going to be able to stop it also blueie is so great what is it you're not
seen blueie oh god is it like the no blueie's great and pepper pig you're about to get really
excited about something you shouldn't get excited about tell me no you're getting excited about a children's
cartoon oh you tell me 30 years old no no no no okay look i'm gonna i'm with caveat it again
pepper pig the dad bumbling like he's always like oh mommy pig can you help like oh and
then it was like, ha ha ha, daddy pig, you're hopeless.
Mama pig does everything.
Like, it's the emotional labour, like the gender stereotyping in that show really
stressing me out.
It's always just like, oh, daddy pig's just a bit of a buffoon.
Whereas with Bluey, mum's an architect.
Dad does loads of, they both work.
I can't remember what he does, but they're both.
Who cares?
I've got the book.
Mom got, I'll load the book for Christmas.
It's very sweet, so I've got the background on all the characters.
Anyway, I think Bluey's got ADHD and they're just really cute the way that they,
My affinity.
They're really cute, like how the sisters hang out.
And it's just like, the dad's really like hands on.
And they did an episode about how the mom had postnatal depression when she had blueie.
And it was just like, but not like heavy.
It's just like, it's just imparting.
Kids, listen to how you made your mother incredibly depressed.
Listen, you ruined everything.
Yeah.
No, it's just, it's like, I think they're all, the show writers are aware that the adults are also watching it.
If you know what I mean.
Oh, like Toy Story.
Yeah.
So it's just, I don't know, I.
really like it because there's a lot of shit made for kids and that is not shit yeah it's
she just had water she's never too young for that shit h2 i'm so upset didn't run for more seasons
well i know poor jamy lynn and you know i did a full 360 on on her me too when she went in
the jungle me too because i was swayed by the media i know when she went in i was like well
she ruined my childhood i hate her and then i saw her i was like i'm very sorry i felt very bad for
the way that I had, and never vocalised but felt.
I know, it's so interesting as well.
Context listeners, if you're not massive Zoe 101 fans, fools.
What you're doing?
What are you doing? Weird childhood.
That little key.
Oh, the little key.
So this is Jamie Lynn Spears, is Brittany Spears as younger sister.
Jamie Lynn Spears got pregnant when she was basically doing Zoe 101.
Yeah.
And so it ruined her career.
And I judged her.
Like, I judged her for a teen pregnancy.
Yeah.
Internalized misogyny, like you, never said it.
Yeah.
And then when she went into the jungle, mom was watching it,
and I said, how's you getting on with, like, do you like her?
Because I hadn't started it yet, because I've been away.
It's just like, oh, yeah, I love everyone.
I really like Jamie Lynn.
And I was like, oh, well, blah, la, la, la.
And she's been fighting with Brittany, blah, la, la.
And then I watched it, and I was like, oh, my God, you were a kid.
And then you had to be emancipated from your parents because they tried to make you give up the kid.
And, like, obviously, what trauma that she's endured?
Yeah.
And then, who am I to judge her?
Who am I to judge her?
And I really had a full moment there.
I think we all did, then.
Yeah.
I think
I think we all did.
Good.
Okay.
Who are all the Gen C celebrities?
Apart from...
I thought I said who are?
I was like, for God's sake,
how much time have you got?
I did say that, didn't that?
You said...
You said it's where all the Genesee.
Well, there's Tom Holland and Zendaya
who you saw the other day.
They walked past this very window.
You saw that.
They walked past this window.
You saw the other window.
No, because I saw this woman.
I was sitting out the window
and I must have looked really cool
because I had music going.
It was sunny and I had a cup of tea
and I was sitting out the window.
And I was like,
but um the ethereal ethereal um but this woman walked past and i was like that is the most beautiful
woman i've ever seen in my entire life like i can't believe that's a real person she looks like i was like oh my god
she's like like zendaya i was like yeah but if it was zendaya she'd have to be here with tom holland because
he's i don't know where he's from in london but he's from going to hold look to her left
the little man was there the little bugger was right there i didn't even see him i was a bit
yeah but but i sort of went like and the loud gasp i believe caught her attention
and she sort of looked up and I went
and then I did a big smile
and then she looked away
but it was pretty cool
I was buzzing
yeah he's from Croydon
oh is he?
He doesn't sound like he's from Croydon
If I saw him in an interview with Stormsy
Oh did he hammer it up
He did a bit yeah
He was like oh we're from the same place
And it was like
And then he made his voice the same
My boyfriend's from that neck of the woods
And every time he's talking to his friends
He sounds very different
How he sounds when he's talking to me
That's the same with Alex
When it goes back to Ireland
Yeah exactly
I can tell when he's on the phone
one of his Irish friends.
I'm like,
there's a lepricor in the kitchen.
What's going on here?
Yeah.
Wait,
what was the question about the celebrities?
It was a boring question.
Oh, God.
Why are,
why will the trendy sneakers say bulky?
I can answer that.
That question alone sucks.
Toxic.
When I was younger,
I always wanted to wear the bigger the shoes,
the small it made my legs look.
Where did I learn that?
That's why we're all brothel creepers all the time.
God, I loved those.
You remember the day I first got those,
and I was so excited.
And I did a hop, skip and a jump down
stairs into the kitchen and I didn't anticipate the extra inch and then at our mum's house
in the kitchen like the stairs of do a door like so it's like a door frame and I was really
excited and I quite often skip hop and jump down the stairs just for fun and um I didn't anticipate
the extra inch that my brothel creepers has given me it's my first time really with any kind of
platform any wedge any height I took a leave I just God I wish I was there for that do you not
no I caught my head so hard the sound it made this is
legendary.
No, do you remember the day,
do you remember when I felt downstairs
on Christmas morning?
Yes, very well.
She got a pair of silk pajama bottoms
that were a bit too long for her.
And bear in mind, this was not that long ago.
This was about five years ago.
So you were probably about 26.
Yeah, I was really good.
And we could hear her running from her room.
I'm excited for Christmas.
Running downstairs and then just,
oh, and then doodd-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d.
And because the door was closed,
but there's a little glass window,
so we could just see her head and her arms going by.
And I immediately started laughing,
and our mum was like,
like, don't!
Like, wait, wait, and open the door.
You were fine.
But then the moment of past, I didn't want to laugh then.
But I thought she was like really worried for me
and she was like, if we'd have to go to A&A on Christmas morning.
Well, no, that's just her though, isn't it?
She was obviously very worried in her own way.
Bless her.
I am not spending Christmas morning in A&A.
She was worried.
We were all worried.
Oh, I think about that so often.
But it's not fun anymore.
like slipping and falling
when I'm carrying a baby
Oh, I thought you just meant
Crickety old burns
No, no, no
Your old, fragile, frail frame
I know, I'm a constant argument with Alex
As he keeps leaving his shoes
At the bottom of the stairs
I know
And I'm like, do you want me to break my neck?
Death trap my neck
To be fair, the bottom of your stairs
is lethal
And there's always shit there
Try having a baby in London
Like honestly, it's not what I've realised
Like, actually
Our flats, our house is one thing
But when I bought
I remember bringing all this buggy here
when she was first born
and we carried it up the stairs
and I put it on the side of the room
and it just rolled into the middle
there is a substantial lean in my flat
if I yeah it's obviously you put a marble
on one end you will lose it
it's just gonna go under everything is under the sofa
everything has rolled under the sofa
nice leave it there I'm going to
I'm not your problem I'm not getting it
it'll just roll back again if I get it before me
that was the best thing TikTok taught me
is at the back of my head is not my business
oh god yeah
I love for that my back
I wish my bum was my business
because I think I have quite a nice bum
You've got great mum
Thank you
But it's not my business
No
My shirt's on inside out
Alas for the masses
Today
What?
My shirts are inside out
It's bad luck to change it
Is it?
That's what mum's
It must be true
No I'm just
Stop
Oh my god
Oh my god
This is one about
We haven't really done
GenC in big
But this while we're laughing at you
Can we remember the Nintendo
When we had Nintendo DSs
When we were kids
Oh gosh
And we used to play the game
in the 10 dogs all the time
and you had a dog
you had a puppy and you called it
Lucinda. Lucinda, I did
but you have to call it in a very specific
way. They only respond to like
the brightest of tones
so I'd be like Lucinda. Lucinda
Lucinda. Lucinda. It's like
who calls their bobby
Lucinda? It's funny
it's a very funny name
for a dog. I was a head of a curve. I bet there's a lot of
very charismatic dogs out there called Lucinda.
it was weird
considering how old I was
and then I dropped it down the loo
I dropped Lucinda in the loo
and then I left her in an airport
and I didn't tell anyone
if you were wondering
what happened in Lucinda
that's where she was
yeah no
I remember exactly where I left her
she must have been squidged between
like a chair
in an airport
how many like great shames do you have
from Tadley who just never told us
I have so many
okay one more just
before we ever
No, they
Unfortunately, I don't have
unlimited access to them
They have to come to me
At different points in the day
And only then can I decide
Whether or not
I want to give them back
Because that's really, really funny
I know it's really sad
She'd probably starve to death
What would you say that?
Bang of Bones
Why would you say that?
It's probably what happened
Right
There'll just be a dead puppy
In the airport
Forever
For ever
Listener's ghost
To haunt departures
And on that cheering
no. Is that it? This is it. Oh, what? Do you want to do it again next week? I mean, I'll come
back. I'll come back. It doesn't matter. I'll come back. Early in the week.
Come back. Manitius of Wednesday. I'd actually love to you. All right, fine. Sorry, Alex,
you're out of a job. Well, she's decided, well, actually, I have news on that. I have news on that.
I have news on that. Al will be back in a couple more weeks. Until then, I think I've just found,
I think I found a co-host. Well, no, no, wait for the, wait for the, wait for the feedback.
Wait for the feedback. All right. If you want her back, DM. No, no, don't do that. That's so
embarrassing. What if no one messages? I'll keep her. Okay. Okay. If you don't want her back,
message me. That's almost worse. I don't know. I hate your message. Don't say a single thing about
me. Don't form an opinion on me. Don't observe me. Don't perceive me. Don't perceive me. Please, for
the love of God, don't perceive me. I was never here. Right. Well, whether you want her or not,
she'll be back next week. For another, if it's just me, Al, we'll be back. We've got a date. We've
got a studio time booked in. Um, but like I said last week, it's just really important
that she just spends this time with Tommy because you don't get this time back again.
and that's the most important thing right now
and also this is, I mean,
there are serious jobs that women have to go back to
all over the country and I'm not sure that this is one
that she needs to...
Shooting the shit with your giao pals.
No?
Oh, I thought she reached out her hand to hold my hand
and she went to shake it, so that was crashing.
All right, guys, we will be back
next week on Thursday.
Love you loads.
Love you, oh sorry, love you.
Who are you saying love you to?
Me.
I don't ever know.
Oh, guys, love you loads.
you on Monday. Oh, will you say goodbye, please? Bye, everyone. Goodbye everyone. Bye-bye now. Bye-bye now.
Bye-bye now. Thank you so much for listening. Should I delete that is part of the ACAST
