Hello, and Michael Batchel Delete that.
I'm Alex Light.
I'm M. Clarkson.
How are we?
Fine.
Nearly cried on the way in.
Love that.
I love that.
I actually did cry on the way in.
And I think Faye probably did too.
Yeah.
So it's like good vibes all around in the studio.
We've got Dex bringing us up.
He's happy.
Carrying us by a string.
from three different directions
we travelled into London this morning
bonded by our tears
a river like three little streams
like draining
what is it called flowing
there we go our tears flowed
into the studio
it's so poetic
gorgeous
but I did say to Fay
we'll wenge your period you
because it's probably that
and it turns out it is probably that
but we don't have that excuse
because you're breastfeeding
you don't have a period
I just don't have a period.
So what's our excuse?
I want that excuse so badly.
I wish I could be like, oh, it's going to, because I, look, okay, I lean into the full moon,
which happens once a month.
If I also had a period to lean into, that would write me off.
That gives me a solid excuse, two weeks of the month, which means I only need to be on form
for the remaining two.
But within that, I can accept that Mercury is going to be in retrograde four times within the year.
I'm showing up three, four days a month.
I'm sure you could dig deeper in.
to astrology there and come up with some other stuff too yeah like the moon's not
shining on you to a certain point in the in the in the in the in the month i'm really sorry guys
i can't smile today the moon is not shine right i'm not basking in its glow in the way that i'd
like it's right on beyond that just give me i would like yeah i i've got no excuse because i don't
believe in astrology so i've not got that i what was the other one no period oh my god i never have a
period excuse. No. Oh my god, it's just hit me that. I might never have a period ever again.
Are you okay about that? I don't know. That's just hit me out of nowhere. Oh, I feel funny.
You may do. You may not. You know, I probably will, but I just, I just never know when it's coming.
I mean, I don't have like the monthly excuse. Yeah. That's an unexpected morning. It's like,
it's like, it's like, Stockholm syndrome. It's like morning your killer or missing your kidnapper.
Yeah. Well, I don't want to be, I don't want to be, like, really pick me.
but I never really minded my period
it was always a nice reminder to me
that my body was working
like I don't know
I never felt like
I always feel like my body's in actual turmoil
and I'm like I just don't believe
that anything's happening inside as it should be
You're so much better than us
I am just so much better
than everyone
I am not like other girls
No
no it's not like it like
No I actually do get
I respect that I'm just being
I liked it when it came
because I was like oh my god
my body actually works
in the way it's supposed to
I know there are other markers, the other signs that it works, apart from that.
But I just, I just always felt like it was really cool.
Have there been other irregularities with your cycle all your life?
Well, it always came every three weeks rather than four.
You are not like other girls.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
I also don't like Taylor Swift.
So I am really different.
Yeah, well, don't we know it?
Yeah, every 21 days it came.
You know what, actually, sorry, I will get back to your period,
but I actually think you can't say you don't like Taylor Swift anymore.
I think we are on two sides of a culture war.
No, I mean on music, sorry.
Because have you seen Donald Trump tweeting about Taylor Swift this week?
No.
He tweeted, because the man is a clinical lunatic,
and I don't care if I'm not supposed to use that word,
because I'll stand by it.
It's my diagnostic definition.
He tweeted that since he said Taylor Swift wasn't good,
she's not hot anymore, paraphrasing.
Stop it.
So I actually feel like it's incredibly problematic to say you don't like Taylor Swift
because next you'll be saying, but I don't mind Donald Trump.
Well, to be clear, I was doing it as a joke, but, okay, well, now I feel awkward, okay?
I didn't know about the tweets.
I take it back.
I love Taylor Swift.
I like her.
Yeah, that's fine.
I like her.
Yeah, yeah.
And we respect to us and artists.
You know, it's like, it's a thing, isn't it?
People like, I just don't like to help me.
I'm with you.
I'm with you.
I just, I felt, you just.
Yeah, yeah, no, I felt like I had to pick you up on this because we're living in
crazy times.
Oh my God, he really did
read that.
What's wrong with it?
Can you quote it
for real?
Because I paraphrased.
Has anyone
noticed that since I said
I hate Taylor Swift
in capital letters?
She's no longer hot
in inverted commas.
That's not hard.
How funny.
Donald Trump, are you all right?
Like, are you all right?
You've caused
a catastrophic trade war.
Like, you basically put war
against all women.
You've got Ukraine.
You've got China.
But by all means, go off about.
I mean, I'd say that's some of his most important work to date, actually.
What, denouncing her?
Yeah.
Well, yeah, you know what?
He's got to get your demographic somehow.
I hope you puts that on a CV because it deserves to be there.
He spoke to you, finally, a man of the people.
Someone Alex Light can relate to.
My hero.
So you've always been different.
Yeah, I've always, I've always been different.
Yeah.
You speak French.
You're a league above.
I speak French.
I don't know my francofe.
Can you tell us in French that you're not like other girls?
No, no, no.
Because I've, we've hyped this up so much about me speaking French.
And the reality is I haven't spoken French for a very long time.
And it's appalling.
My French is appalling at this point.
So I'm not putting myself up for that.
No.
The good news is...
You can beg and beg, but no.
I will.
But I don't know.
I can't speak French.
So whatever you say will impress me.
I know that's tempting to you.
I know you want to impress me.
I can see it. I saw your eyes glimped at the opportunity to impress me. We'll circle back to.
No, it is so, it is so bad. I am extremely shy about speaking French. Even like, I won't do it in front of
Dave. I promise you, I am. You won't do it in front of Dave. Do you poo in front of Dave?
No. Okay, no, that's good. I just wanted to see where we were at on that. No, but he poos in front of me.
Oh, I wish he wouldn't. So do I, honestly. So do I. I see it. He just leaves a dot. He wants to chat.
I'm like, it's nice that he wants to chat. I can't imagine, Dave.
I'm wanting a chat.
I know.
He's a different man at home.
That's nice.
Good Bad and Awquids.
Yes.
Good.
I ran a 10K.
Well done.
Faye, did you watch it on Strava?
It was really good.
So what happened to Strava?
Is it like a live stream that you can watch?
No, but I liked it.
Do you wear a little GoPro for everyone?
That would be cute.
Did you see it on Strava though?
I saw it and it was very impressive.
Thank you so much.
What did you run it in?
Faye's a really quick runner.
Is she?
Yeah.
I saw your Strava.
I was like,
what's that girl?
She was flying.
Oh my God.
I know.
It's so fun.
You think you know someone
and then you see their Strava.
Are you seeing her in a whole new light now?
100%.
My respect is intensified.
She's flying around the park regularly.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I love to see it.
Right back at you.
You're running my old roots and I'm like in another life.
Oh, so you can see roots as well on there.
That's creepy.
You can see your.
You can see your.
friends, I hide mine, like, because, I don't know, I just, but you can hide, like,
if you just got your friends, when I had, like, my friends, when I had like 12 friends that
exercised, which was my straw, um, I would leave it. But then I accept, like, because then we
had the hags one and I need to, I, I, I keep meaning to accept everyone that requests,
but I want mine to be like public. Because it's fun, I like the community element. Yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah, yeah. But then so I just hide my map. Maybe I'll join. Yeah, maybe.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. What are you going to do?
do.
I don't know.
Can I walk on it?
Yes, but you have to
like log your walks.
Can I jog and walk?
I don't imagine at this point
I'll be able to jog for very long
but that's fine.
Fun to try.
Yeah, yeah, it would be so,
I would love it if you went for a jog.
I, the only thing that tempts me
is what you say about the mental health benefits
of it.
Which are plentiful.
And Faye's nodding, so you obviously feel them too.
Do you?
We should have run here instead of crying on the train here.
We should have.
That's what I've taken away from.
all be in such best estates, wouldn't we?
We'd all run here.
So it does tempt me, but...
You could do it.
You don't need Strava to run, though.
You'd have to reach a certain threshold for you to actually, like, do it, doesn't it?
No, not really for me.
I had one look at a panoschocula after a gale's window this morning, and I was like,
sold.
Never leave a panoschukler behind.
Quite right.
Especially not a gale's on.
Temptation for me.
No, I am always on the precipice of temptation.
I am the most easily tempted person, I think I know.
And you could tempt me into pretty much anything, literally anything.
Tent me, go on, I'll do it.
Yeah, I actually think we're both quite bad, like,
both quite easily influenced.
Incredibly easily influenced.
Anyone who comes through these studio doors, I'm like,
I need your trousers, I like your rearing.
Take them off.
What lipstick colour is that?
Before they've left, they're like added to cart.
I have no.
I thought you were saying out of cart.
I was like, damn it, French.
I have no, yeah, my temptation threshold, if that's such a thing,
is it's underground.
I trip over it
regularly.
Quite.
Okay, well, running.
Well, I'll keep you updated.
I would, well, I'll add your trailer.
Don't like be on the edge of your sea.
Don't ask me, I'll tell you.
Okay.
Like the American military.
Don't ask, don't tell.
I have a good, a joint good.
Listeners will already know
because it will have been announced on Monday,
but
We've got a live show.
A big one.
We're doing a very big live show.
Can I also say something quite important?
No, hugely important.
Please.
Neither of us are going to be pregnant.
This will be the first live show that we have ever done.
My God.
Well, we can both get giddy on the stage.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God, indeed.
That's so good because last time, like in the live tour,
I was just taking my little tinnies out on stage.
Yeah, no, you were.
You're packing him away.
Yeah.
Okay, well, I'm sorry.
Diane Abbott.
But now you can join me.
Yes, I can.
That is so exciting.
I'm much too scared to drink before an occasion like that.
But I could probably be tempted.
The anxiety, we can't, we can't risk that.
No, you, yeah, yeah, no.
Because remember the first live show we did?
Yeah, and you had like two glasses of Prosecco before we went on and I had not eaten
properly and I went to my head and then I was incredibly anxious.
You couldn't get in touch with me for like a week.
No, I was like, right, well.
That was like, right.
I'm quitting. I don't like it. I hate it. I hate...
I have been perceived. I have been perceived hugely.
But, I mean, this is... This is going to take it to a new level, though, because we are...
We're going to be perceived a lot. There are. It is a big... It is the iconic Usher Hall in Edinburgh.
And I love Edinburgh. I don't mean to be that guy. But I ran Edinburgh Marathon.
Oh, you, go on. Okay. All right. Frenchie.
Where else will be run?
I mean, if you want to get into it...
Marathon in France?
No, but I will.
If you speak French to me, I could be tempted.
Yeah, the Asher Hall, ginorm.
It's 2,200 people.
Don't play that aloud.
I can't.
I googled it yesterday, which I wish I hadn't.
No.
It's ginormous, but I love Edinburgh.
And I don't want to get drunk before we do it, because
reputationalally, I don't think we can handle that.
But I would very much like to get drunk afterwards, and I relish the opportunity.
Okay, let me pitch something.
Hit me.
Getting drunk during.
are getting tipsy joring, drunk afterwards.
Fine.
I want the attendees to see us gradually getting sloppier and sloppier as we're on stage.
I love watching you get drunk.
Sloppy.
It's one of my favourite things because you just lean further forwards and just get a fraction louder.
Like that's the only way that I'd know.
I like it.
I also get like, I get very giddy.
Yeah, no, it's quite, but you're, that's a lovely thing.
I love lovely drunks.
Yeah, yeah, never been a bad, yeah.
It'd be tough if you're a bad drunk actually.
Well, I think the answer would probably be not to be not to drink. Yeah. We're going to be in Edinburgh on the 3rd of September.
Third of September. It's a great day to be in Edinburgh. I've always thought third of September. God, I'd love to be in Edinburgh.
Well, yeah, I'm sure you have, because you're funny about dates, aren't you? Is there a significance of the third of September?
No, it just sounds great. Okay. What is, um, third of the night?
Yeah, no, it's first. Um, what, what star sign is that third of September?
Oh, but you. It's just after your birthday. It's a burgo. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, my. Oh, my, a
Virgo season in Edinburgh
on a very big stage
drunk
I'm drunk
floppy
it's going to be chaos guys
you've got to come
oh it's going to be so fun
but we're going to make a trip of it
are you taking your kids
I'm taking my kids
yep yeah
can't get that drunk
same time you're going to come
you say that
yeah I'm so excited
I can't wait
I can wait because I'm really nervous
what if no one
I mean
no you can't do that
because normally you're the optimistic
one and I'm the one that brings us down
you have to be strong and positive
okay hold us together that's your role in this okay what do you bring you let me panic panic fear
right terror noted in that case can't wait for a sold out gig on the third of september in
edinburgh um you know it's it for real so exciting so cool i can't believe they want us i'm mostly
excited about going to edinburgh like on the trip we can get train snacks we can love train snacks
train snacks actually you guys do train snacks really well really fucking well apart from last time when
Alex got the dark Malteseers, which
That was so disappointing.
I know you were gutted.
You've never been so disappointed in him in my life.
It's actually disappointed in you as a family.
You know what, fair enough.
You should have ever seen that.
I know, I was hanging by a thread.
It was a beginning of my HGLT.
Yeah, it was slipping through the cracks, left, right and center.
Yeah, we've drowning in dark mortgazers.
Yeah, I threw, that was that train journey because I tried the Holy Sand Duck Wrap
from the veggie vegan one from MNS and then I threw it up in the most disgusting loos.
Oh, on a train, that's not ideal.
You know what, actually.
Really bad with hypermises, and I'm sure I've told this story before,
but I once had the worst hangover of my entire life.
I got really day drunk and then a smidge of heat stroke.
This was like 2018.
And then I went up to Manchester to go and watch my dad filming something.
And I got on the train and I was like, right, well, this is where I die.
And I spent the entire train journey basically shitting myself and throwing up at the same time.
That's absolutely horrendous.
It was about as bad as anything's ever been.
There are not many places as grim as a train toilet.
Not after a...
Especially when you need to shit yourself and stick yourself.
Yeah, it was so gross.
Stick yourself.
It was really bad.
It was horrible.
That was probably enough because I didn't really drink that much and I could probably
trace it back to that day.
I will always remember reading an article in Cosmo about a woman who was on a train
and needed to change her tampon.
She put her tampon down on the train sink, train toilet sink.
picked it back up, inserted it, and then got hepatitis, one of the hepatitises.
Bloody hell, from a trained high-on.
I can hear, Faye, fact-checking.
Which is important.
Which is really important.
I swear to you, I remember it.
Tap, tap, tap away, Faye.
It could have been E. coli, but it was one of those two.
It could have been a cold.
She got some of the braw her from it because she put it down on the toilet sink.
So just as a heads up
If you're putting a tampon down
Put the tampon wrapper underneath it
I don't think I've ever needed to put
I mean famously don't really have periods
But I haven't had to put a tampon down
I'm in and out
Yeah
Shake it all about
Alright don't shame her
She might have you know
Yeah well there's plenty of reasons
For you might want to put a tampon down
She might have needed to do a mid-tampon change poo
I don't know
No positive sounds are coming from FACA
So let's skip over this
Okay, I might have remembered a differently, but I'm pretty sure that's how it went.
It was one of those diseases, I'm sure.
I have an awkward.
Great.
No, it wasn't great.
It was horrible, actually.
We were at an event.
We went to an event.
Me and you did?
Yes.
I love it when you do things that I haven't noticed when we were together.
The woman who organized it and invited us came to say hi.
and speaking to her
and then she said that it was her birthday
so I was like oh my god
happy birthday
and as a little
I don't know
a little happy birthday gesture
I leaned out
I reached out with my hand
to touch her arm
right
to be like
happy birthday arm touch
it's difficult
because this is
there's no video here
but like I yeah
arm touch
happy birthday
she had her arms crossed
right so can you imagine this
right
yeah she had her arms cross
so I leaned out
to touch her arm
but I overreached
and I struck her boob
I touched her boob
I literally went happy birthday
as I touched
grabbed her boob
and you know what
I froze my whole body froze
and like I know that
what I should have done is go
God sorry
like sorry I'm meant to touch your arm
oh my God
but I didn't I didn't say anything
I just froze
and I didn't say anything for like five seconds
which is a really long time
Where was the hand at that point?
No no I snatched it back straight away
like as soon as I touched it
And I realized what I was doing, because I felt, I felt dress.
Yeah.
I felt boob rather than hand, like, rather than bare skin of her arm.
I felt dress, dress covering boob.
And I was like, like, pulled my hand back so fast.
And then I was just like, oh.
And I know that she, and we just kind of stared at each other and it's horrible.
And I was like, why didn't I just say, oh, sorry?
Like, that's so funny.
Why did I, sexually harassed?
Loads of things are going through my mind and being like, what she thinks I did it on purpose.
And like, oh my God, yeah, it's actually a restaurant on her birthday.
On her birthday. I had a place of work.
Oh my God, what's wrong with you?
I know.
That's a lot.
She's from like very far south.
I can't remember what she said, but like she's on the coast.
So I told her what I was from and she was like, God, that's so far north.
Which is not like that far north, but for her, it's really far north.
I thought like, oh my God, she might think it's like a northern tradition.
On her birthday, just reach out and stroke the boob.
I think she might have met people
from Liverpool before.
She'll be telling this story
like you were the Cosmo Tampon
Hepatitis story. Do you know what they do
in Liverpool on your birthday? They reach out
and they just tap your tip.
Oh, horrible. That's horrible.
She's listening, you know who you are and I'm so sorry
I didn't mean to do it. And I'm so sorry to
acknowledge it and made it incredibly uncomfortable for everyone.
Yeah, that's super weird.
Mine are awkward.
Proud of myself though. I've got a lump on my thigh.
Not, that's not what I'm proud of myself for.
I was going to say.
Well done you.
Thank you so much.
Thank you.
I've got a lump on my thigh and I thought, I noticed it like a couple of years ago.
And I was like, oh, lump on my thigh.
Yeah.
That'll be a cyst.
And then I didn't do anything about it.
Then I was like, oh, I was probably limped up.
Anyway, I've basically been ignoring it, kicking it down the road for a while.
And then Alex took a photo of me in the day and I saw it in the photo.
And I was like, that's a chunky lump.
Yeah.
So I went to the doctor.
Well done.
Thank you so much.
And it's fine.
It's just a cyst.
I think.
I mean, she wasn't, who knows.
The awkward part is, when you go with something on your upper thigh,
the only thing to do is just take your trousers down.
Take your trousers down.
But just a little bit.
There wasn't any point.
I was like, well, it's just there.
So there's no point in like taking them down down.
At the same point in taking them off.
So I ended up just taking them down to my knees, which is weird.
Because then it's like, well, this is horrible.
Because it feels incredibly intimate.
It feels like I should be sitting on the loo.
And then do you sit back down?
Do you stand up?
So I was like, I just pull my trousers down to my knees.
and then you should have thought ahead and worn a dress or shorts yeah or shorts so you could
just pull them up I know I thought about it as I was leaving I was like I should have worn shorts but I hadn't shaved my legs
so I was like right well there we are so I just pulled them down and then I got really awkward so she felt it
and she went oh yeah that's probably just assist I went okay cool and then she started washing her hands
so okay and then I was like well I'll just pull my trousers back up and then I was going to sit back down
and I was like you know what don't need to do that so I was like anyway thanks bye I just left
That is so awkward
It was like I went into the Lou for a quickie
I literally was like in, down
Alright, like so much a few times
You were still washing her hands when I left
I was like I'm not gonna, I don't really need to do this
Oh God, I feel he be jubes
Don't call me
I have an awkward
Another one
Another one, right
But it's a by proxy awkward
And it's one that I've been holding on to
For a couple weeks actually
If it's by proxy, is it me?
I meant to say it last week and I forgot
No, no no it's more
I guess it's a more of an is it just me
Awquid right
We went to see the football
Yeah, a couple weeks ago
the FA Cup final, which was so cool.
Slay.
So cool.
So good.
Honestly, one of the best events I've ever been to in my life.
Me too, quite complicated with Arlo, though, because every time Chelsea scored, that's the
objective, that's why we're there, we want the goals.
But then it's quite overwhelming for her because everybody shouts.
Very, yeah.
So I was trying to explain, and she didn't want goals.
Like, when they were goals, she was like, ah, I was like, okay.
Fair.
Come back next year.
But she's like, it was really fun.
So fun.
But I, it really struck me, right?
when they start the match
and the ball's just there
and all the players are on their own sides
and then the ball just is there
and then the whistle goes like
how awkward must that be
to suddenly start the game
how awkward and uncomfortable is that
you go no you go
I mean obviously I know they don't do that
but like how awkward to get it going
fraction of silence
and where are they all going to go
oh we've kind of got to perform now
but like
who's going to go wet
Like, oh, oh, and then you're going to be really good from the off.
And starting into a run, it's always embarrassing.
How embarrassing.
Once you're running, no biggie.
How embarrassing.
But going from walking to running, embarrassing, going from standing to running.
Yeah.
Mortify it.
I once to ask you to, I never played team sports because I couldn't stand the pressure.
I couldn't stand the idea of letting anyone down on the team.
I couldn't bear it.
So, like, swimming in tennis is where I, like, had my happy place because I could just do it alone.
I wasn't letting anybody down, apart from moving my parents and myself.
but like team sports I could have so did you play team sports and is it awkward and uncomfortable
when I did the whistle goes and you have to start playing I don't think I've overthought it
enough would be my answer to that I asked Dave and he was like I just what what do you mean
I had to explain to him like five times he's like no I still don't get it why would it be
awkward I'm like do you understand what I mean though I completely understand yeah I knew you were
I completely understand what you mean I used to play hockey but I think that's different
because you're coming at it with a weapon do you know what I mean like
You're armed.
There's something about your feet being the weapon that's quite embarrassing with football
where it's just like, I've got my tools like at the end of my legs.
Whereas with a stick, it's like, well, I'll just move forward with purpose because I've
a stick.
You've got so much more purpose.
So much more.
Yeah.
And also you can, yeah, you've got like your eyes.
I don't know.
It's just something uncomfortable about like.
I also, it's nice to have a thing, isn't it?
So when you've got your stick, it's like, well, it's fine, I've got a stick.
Yeah, you've got a prop.
Yeah, you've got a prop.
Yeah, it's nice.
It's like when you go into a room holding like a base.
It's like, well...
Yeah, less attention on you.
Yeah, yeah, it's fine.
I'll just hold the baby.
And then it's like, no one's going to look at me being like,
oh, look at that lemon because she's got a baby.
And you get it.
Yeah, yeah, so it's just...
Any footballers listening, can you let us know?
Is it really awkward when the whistle goes off?
I'd say rugby's worse because I'm pretty...
Just fly at each other.
You have to fly down because you have to pick it up.
And famously, is there anything more embarrassing than picking up a ball?
No.
And especially if you're like, you know, like bang heads with someone.
You've got to run at it like a downward.
Like you've got to run at it at like a downward.
got to, like, run and then go down.
Oh, I don't know. I'm feeling uncomfortable thinking about it.
Because we played ping pong at the FA Cup thing.
And to be fair, we mostly made Dave chase the ball.
But that wasn't it?
Watching him trot off.
Wasn't it?
Been it all over.
Yeah, bend down together.
I was like, oh, God, how undignified.
Let it go, Dave.
Let it go.
He also, we carried on playing afterwards, and he also, like, lunge for a ball.
We got competitive.
We're like, right, we're going to play a game.
Got competitive.
He, like, and he's incredibly competitive.
He, like, lunch for ball, lunched.
too hard and like whacked a girl, just a random bystander.
With a bat.
With her bat.
Well, you can't be doing that.
I know, and he's like, I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry.
I was like, yeah, sorry, he gets competitive.
I'm pleased he gets competitive and I didn't know because we beat him.
So.
Did be him?
Yeah.
I'm quite good at ping pong.
I run a baby to look after.
Yeah, yeah.
He was just alone.
Yeah, it was me, Arlo and Alex versus Dave.
He kicked his ass.
I mean, we played like two points, but yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
And we sent him running, embarrassingly after the ball.
stooped over
and I completely understand that with team sports
that makes a lot of sense to me
doesn't it? Doesn't it? Never thought about it before.
No yeah, really awkward. It was fun though.
I hated team sports so much.
I wish I could go back and play team sports now.
Like I, it's so tragic.
I didn't have the confidence.
Why don't you join a netball team?
Because I'd have to cut my nails, I think.
And honestly, I've not got the time.
I'm expecting that.
Because I'd have to like...
get a babysitter, like miss a bedtime, but I'd have to come on the hills.
Well, that's always been my thing, because, like, you know, loads of my friends play netball.
None of them on the same team, but, like, they all play netball in the evenings.
Yeah.
Like, all round London, like, Crystal Palace team or a Brixton team, like, they all play.
Netball.
Netball, which is really cool.
I really liked hockey.
I found it incredibly satisfying, like a big whack, and then, like, a wood to a bull,
and then, like, a, like, a, like, a, you know.
like I liked it
it's not that precious so much
I got the biggest bruise of my life once on my thigh
really yeah I remember thinking
that's gangster you know what I mean
with a hockey stick made by a hockey stick
got the ball to the thigh
it was a lot
yeah and I'm in the soft bit
that's probably where the lump's from to be fair
I was gonna say things are adding up
I was thinking it's exactly the same position actually
we just got to the bottom thing
yeah I needn't have gone to the GP
intake in my trousers down yesterday
it's an ancient hockey injury from 20
years ago um yeah no completely i awkward yeah but i i would i would relish the opportunity to play as an adult
but i think i've probably left it too late and i do like nebill and i'm quite good at shooting you
will a lot have left at two days quite good goal goal attacking i think because well actually i this might
not be right what i'm saying but like when people do it leisurely like once a couple of weeks and
stuff i imagine that they don't ever get that good so i don't no no they're so good oh okay no mine
but also i love catching balls like catching and throwing not definitely
Do you know why? I actually do like catching train balls as well, actually.
It's fun. It's so fucking fun.
You know that game in friends where they have to keep the ball up?
Yes. They can't drop the ball. Great game. One of my favorite games ever.
When I'm on holiday with my brother, or really anyway, all we do is throw the ball to each other.
Same. Like, when we go, before I had kids, they haven't really been away because he's been living in Australia.
But before we had kids, if we ever went away together, my whole family, like my mom and my brother and my sister and me and Alex when he joined, although he never really got it.
We'd just throw and catch balls.
Love that.
That is right on my...
We would do such a good holiday together.
Well, we've been thinking about going on holiday together.
We could just take a tennis ball.
You could just leave me in the shallows of the sea,
throwing catching a ball, and I'd be so happy.
I'd just love...
And you know, I'm really good at throwing.
Like, I can throw really far.
I feel terrible for saying this, but I'm...
That surprises me.
Does it?
No, it doesn't.
Yes, it does.
Stick with your first thought.
Why were you surprised?
step back out of this now
I don't know
I just didn't think sport was your thing
like I know you're so good at running
but like I didn't think like sport was your thing
why
I don't know
Is it because I'm now coordinated
Is it because I fall over a lot
No
I feel like it might be because of these things
What is it?
I don't know I don't know
I feel like I've just never heard you talk about sport
Or like doing sports
So I've not considered it
But that's great to know
I feel like it's a cornerstone
With my personality to be honest
I will add back to my list of
Well it's exercise
isn't it?
But I don't know.
There's something about a ball.
Yeah.
I'm rubbish at kicking them, as you know.
I was crap at that football stuff that we did.
Do you remember?
When we went there, we did that shoot for Venus,
and we went with the lionesses.
And there was this squad of, like,
incredible young footballers.
It's like school age,
but like they were amazing,
those girls and us.
And we were the ambassadors.
And it was like, thanks for inviting us,
but what are we doing here?
Literally, what are we doing here?
And then the cameraman,
obviously didn't know us apart,
should have done,
from the footballers.
So he's like, yeah, cool, and just shoot a goal.
I was like, just shoot a what now?
Do you know what?
Do you remember when we went to?
Oh, fuck, what was it that we went to?
With Venus.
Yeah, we went to the opening game of the Euros in 2022.
And you, no, 2023, either way.
22nd or 2.
And you won a lifetime supply of raises.
I won a lifetime supply.
Because she's really good at kicking.
I'm like, I was so random.
And then I think I like, I beat a man called Steve.
And then I was like, I can't really take the lifetime supply of,
we're here with Venus.
So I was like, Steve, you can have the lifetime supply of raises.
It was like, right?
It was really hard, right?
So they had this big cardboard boxing with like five holes in it.
I know what?
We're going to make the story lifer because there were five holes in the wall,
in the cardboard wall, and they were all different sizes.
And you got more points shooting the ball into the smallest hole.
And she got it, like every ball in the smallest hole.
It was crazy.
Can I just say it? I thought you said
of raisins.
Raysen? Lifetime supply of raisins.
Not a live reason.
Is it?
I do have a lot of raisins in my handbag, if anyone's interesting.
Imagine how much a lifetime supply of raisins would be.
It would, like, fill the entire house.
Well, it depends on how many raisins you get through.
It's hard to call something like that.
It's hard to call races as well.
What's a lifetime supply of raisins?
I feel like a race is that you could probably get through
like one head a month. But raisins, it's like, well, that's anyone's guest because really you could
just keep going. Also, how long are you going to live for? Quite. Who's lifetime?
Have you left the terms and conditions in this competition?
Look, before I win, I need to know. How many raisins are we talking?
Yeah, you're so good. No, I do need to set the record straight. I can't kick. I'm not good at
kicking. But you're good at catching and throwing. I feel like we need to go to Greece with a tennis
ball. I don't feel like we need to do this in Greece. We could just get a tennis pool.
The game donkey, did you play that?
Yes.
If you drop it, you get a D.
Yeah.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
See, did you ever play Bums?
No, what's that?
Oh, God.
See, this is where you didn't have a brother on its shows.
My brother was absolutely savage.
So they'd do it with kicking, but you had to keep the ball up.
And then if you dropped it, you'd get a BU, I bet you Dex has played this.
You'd go through, cool.
Of course.
Yeah, you'd go through until you get to the S.
And then if you didn't, when you got to Bums, you'd have to go against a wall,
and get your ass out
and then everyone you were playing with
could kick the ball
yeah this is definitely a brother thing
what the fuck yeah my brother was
honestly from as old as I can remember
and bear in mind this man is younger than me
he would stand me in the goal at home
like he'd got a little football goal thing
and he'd give me a pair of gloves
and he would just kick the football at me
that's probably why I got so good at catching
he would just kick it for fucking hours
and I'm just there like
uh uh uh uh terrifying
terrifying yeah and yeah the bum's thing was a lot
They, um, yeah, he was a very,
sounds awful, I don't think that should be allowed.
No, really, should not have been allowed.
Boys and Bulls just bad.
And I was, I was, I was to pull into that, like, fear, fear, you know?
You never thought about that.
Pulled into its orbit.
They're fun.
So there's an element of fear, I think, for me.
How cool you got to experience both, brother and sister?
Yeah.
I feel like what happened is that, is that, um, we just did what he wanted with,
with the horse thing
Yeah, it sounds like it
Yeah
Once I left
If Katia was pulled in
Have much say
Good age different
Well he would argue that I think
He was left to do girly things
But I do have a nice cassette
Of a singing
I'm like a bird on a karaoke machine
Stop it
It's so sweet
Perhaps it did go both ways
Thinking about it
You can hear me being really bossy as well
It's like just do it like you mean it
Like come on
And yeah we play a lot of
It was fun having a brother
We did a lot of wee tennis, a lot of wee tennis.
Oh, wee, we.
There should be more whee's in our lives, the Nintendo Wii.
Yeah, I loved that.
I missed that immensely, apart from when you stood on it, and it told you you were a beast.
Yeah, do you remember that?
Yeah, do, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, that horrible sound.
Triggering.
But it was good at itself.
Right, you've got a game.
Sorry, have you seen that meme where it's like me and my brother upstairs playing
we sport or my parents are getting divorced downstairs?
A little close to home
Did you make the memes
If you're not seen it
It's me out my brother
com
Well this has been good
This has been good
We're supposed to get through emails
But we didn't get there
So we'll do them next week
I'm going to bring a tennis ball for next week
Oh my God please
Wouldn't that think no
A whole episode of like
Just throwing back and forth
Knocking light fixtures on everything
I can't concentrate on two things at once
So I would not be able to speak.
Well, no, you're not going to be much fun to play the game with, are you?
If this was going to be our holiday, just you're throwing...
Oh, yeah, I can't multitask.
We know this.
You just stand there and throw.
Okay.
I'm so happy.
Fine.
You can speak to someone else.
Okay.
Thanks for being with us today, guys.
We are going to leave a link to the live show, tickets to the live show in the show notes.
If you're around Edinburgh, in Edinburgh, around Edinburgh.
Or fancy a trip to Edinburgh.
To Edinburgh on the 3rd of September.
but please come and see us.
We would be very grateful.
We promise to make it fun.
We will see you on Monday.
Love you, bye.
Should I delete that as part of the ACAST Creator Network?
