Hello and welcome to another episode of Sloss and Humphreys on the road.
Thank you very much for tuning in.
Enjoy this episode where we speak about fucking Vegas, baby.
We just got back from my stag do.
Nobody dies.
Nobody went to jail.
Money was lost.
Friends were made.
Kisses were had.
Only between men on the stag do, though.
God, that's sad
that that is true
oh no no
that no no
thingy got laid
yeah yeah
single thingy
got laid
so he did a lot
of heavy lifting
but other than that
just a lot of
blokes kissing
blokes I'll be
honest with you
we don't talk
about that much
though we speak
about things
it's going to be
oh yeah we speak about India
and how excited we are
to come there
mixed in with some
casual racism
because you know
and this is very much
like a first part
of the Vegas stories
and then accidentally
but also not
not sorry about it
have accidentally
turned this into
real fucking clickbait shit
so you're getting
the first half
of the Vegas stories here
and then the rest
you're going to hear on Thursday's
Patreon episode. Oh no, is that
not going to be available to the public?
No, it's not. So gie your fucking
money. How about that? How about
that? Sucker den, you
absolute fucking wags.
We are laughing our way to the
bank. Now that we're no
longer laughing our way to Vegas.
Enjoy the podcast, fuckers.
Sloss and Humphreys on the road.
Muggins and cream, cream and muggins.
Straight thuggin', livin' the dream.
That's our intro.
Fuckin' muggles.
Ticklin' the clit inside your head that makes you laugh.
Woohoo!
They said it can't be done.
Are we in the same seats?
That's hack.
Aw, muggles.
Accidental rim job in the park.
Kiss, kiss, kiss
Or might just be cynical
Just muggled it up on fucking Mugglepedia
Where have you been since 9-11?
Is there a small part of you that just wished you died there
So that we didn't have to confront normal day-to-day life afterwards?
It does feel like, you know
What's his fuck?
Brian Regan used to have a bit I think Reece Darby always used to have a bit
I think Reece Darby always used to have a bit on it
Which was like moon depression
Which is like people who've been to the moon
Come back to the earth
And like you know
Their wife's there, their kids are there
Is that why they call it coming back down to earth?
Maybe
Do you reckon that's the etymology of it?
Well no I feel that's more like
If you're coming back down to earth I feel that's more like if you're coming back down to earth
I feel that's more like you're a satellite
crashing and burning on your way back into entry
like if you're being brought back down to earth
with a bang
it's like hitting the deck
I have just been fucking trying to handle
real life
doing my business, doing my laundry
fucked that up
I fucking I doing my business, doing my laundry. Fuck that up. You did. I fucking
I thought
it was like, I could have spent all day just
watching the football. It's a Saturday, it's a day after
the stag do. I could just fucking
lounge around all day. I've got the dog, Natalie's
at work, but Peggy stayed in with me.
I thought I'd be fucking clever and do the washing.
And then when I took the washing, ooh, today
was my passport, I'll have on my clothes.
Just in bits.
If I'd done nothing
That wouldn't have happened
If I'd lounged around
Instead of trying to be productive
When I come down
Or
If Natalie had done your washing
Oh she was so
There's no way
There's no way
There's no way
Cara has handed
I can't tell you how many times
Cara has handed me
Either my vape
My Tesla keys
Or my wallet As we get into bed.
She's come up from the washing, and she's like,
you're a fucking idiot.
And I'm like, baby, this is why.
This is why I'm the one that cleans out the food bin, right?
This is why I'm the one that cleans up, like,
I'm the one that's double-packing trash.
So you're scraping plates in your leg.
There's your contact lenses in your food
well
I mean all the food
comes off the plate
I'm doing
I'm doing my
I do my share
I do my share of
like things where she's like
I hate that job
and also I'm bad at it
but she does the share
where anything
that could go wrong
anything
that anything
where I could lose
valuable crucial bits
of information
I need to be doing stuff
mindlessly
aye
because I switch my mind off when I do stuff
and I know a lot of people at home be saying well surely you shouldn't be
taking out the bins then, no I am because everything
I'm not putting stuff into the bin to then take it out
it's the stuff that's already been in the bin
it's being vetted, that's a separate
trust the process, yeah yeah yeah
if I do bin something that's a fuck up
from a different day, that's a three day ago
fuck up, this is separate
yeah so the worst thing is, right,
as I packed to come home,
like I was packing the gun away,
I was checking my pockets,
I was rolling stuff up.
Like when I opened my suitcase,
it was neat
and I'd already checked the pockets
but mostly so I didn't take drugs
through the airport.
So I knew the pockets were empty
but I still checked every pocket
into the wash.
And then just as I clicked the door shut
and you know,
you've got like that fucking
five minute grace period
where you can still open the door once it's started. I was like, the
shit I travelled in, fucking ran upstairs, grabbed my passport, yeeted it in.
Wallet, fucking boarding pass.
So I've tried it on the radio, and like, you can still read it, but it's fucking damaged.
I'm not going to risk, I've got an appointment booked in tomorrow, but it is stressful against
the clock for us, can't India on Wednesday.
Well, it's stressful for you the clock for us going to India on Wednesday well it's stressful
for you
I'm still going to India
you're still going to India
but like
you are going to need
a chaperone for that place mate
well fucking
so
I don't imagine
do we have any
Indian fans
that listen to this podcast
aye loads
really
people are getting in touch
asking if I was coming
are you definitely coming
really
like if you
if you go on
whatever our fucking
podcast hosts on
you do that thing
which shows where you
listen for
well I only know
from people getting in
touch
right
from listening
from India
well so
if in that case
we do have Indian
Indian listeners
all
I think all of the
shows have
sold out
which was very
exciting
because we've been
wanting to obviously
announce them
and do them for ages
I know they are very short notice.
Unnecessarily short notice, but sold out still.
Yeah, sold out still.
They went flapping about it,
but we could have had a bit more warning.
But also, because here's the thing, right?
And we will talk about Vegas and the stag
doing it to all those funny fucking, funny stories.
Let me tell you, it's a boring bit of, you know,
stand-up career tactic-wise. It's a boring bit of you know stand up career tactic wise
it's a new market so
even though we were very confident like
I think we can do
2000 in India
I think confidently I think we can
do that. Our promoters who's the first time
working with them were rightfully like hey we're excited
to have you you know we're the biggest and best
over here it's our suggestion that we
start with this not We're not saying
we don't believe you,
but it's a new market.
Let's see what fucking happens.
And they're constantly
in the back of my mind.
I'm like,
I can fucking,
I know in my gut.
Just from the Twitch comments.
I know in my gut,
I can,
I know in my gut
I can shift 5,000 in India.
I reckon I can do 10,000 in India.
And that's just 10,000 people
who said,
when are you coming to India?
Ah, aye, aye.
But again, I am also aware that i am a human being fueled by ego like there's a voice in my head that's important
to who i am sometimes that tells me i'm better than i'm at i am just so that i have the ego to
go on stage and continue to act uh the way i act so i'm like is that that ego they are coming in
saying and then literally Marlena
before the flight
she was like
I know you're about to go
in your stag do
and I know you're literally
boarding the flight
but I'm really sorry
we have to add
fucking
extra dates
so we've added some
and now we are looking
into
coming back
on this tour
bringing the same show back
at a later date
in bigger venues
because now that we know India is a big hit.
And if my passport doesn't arrive in time for this trip,
I'll be there for that one.
I'd be fucking devastated if I missed that trip because of my passport.
Let's get me.
Surely, surely, surely by the end of 2024,
we can make me the biggest British act in India.
Ooh.
Who else is it? I don't know India Who else is it?
I don't know
Who's going out there right now?
Aziz Ansari
It's American and the only one I know that's gone out and done it
I know Jerry Seinfeld tried to do it
But didn't sell out
Haha Jerry in your face 1-0 me
That's right 1-0 Jerry
1-0
When I come down
That was before the Premier League era 1-0 yeah when I come that was BC
that was before
the Premier League
era
yes
the goal
to say to
Jenny
1-0
no
motherfucker
no
what do you
mean no
what's so hard about saying zero What do you mean, no?
What's so hard about saying zero?
Did you see me actually real life do a Jerry Seinfeld joke at the airport?
No.
When we're fucking queuing in Heathrow to get onto the flight.
Actually, it was at Edinburgh Lake.
We're queuing to get on the flight.
And I was like, and I don't know for sure it's a jerry seinfeld joke but surely
it's a jerry seinfeld joke um it's like who's buying luggage in the airport who's already got
food security your luggage is checked on the flight and then you're buying 23 kilograms of
luggage it's got to be a jerry seinfeld bit right yeah and even if it has been him it's been done
since it's become hack nobody's even doing it anymore
because
you can guarantee
even though I haven't heard it as a bit
it's been done
man
dads are going through
the airport
and making that joke
like regular
fucking people
I guarantee dads
are being like
woo
fucking woo
that's what dads do
so
I'm with
Mark Nelson
Gareth
and Cullen
and I'm in the airport
and I'm like,
I know it's a fucking
hack bit,
but who the fuck
actually is?
Like,
everybody can stand
on stage going,
who's buying luggage
in the blue?
But who the fuck
is buying luggage?
I'm going,
I'm going to ask him
right now,
right in a fucking
storm now.
I'm like,
who's this for?
And the guy there
would just start
with his line,
yeah,
just absolutely
fucking baffled
going
it's the first ever
customer
I don't know how
to react
it's like a Mormon
when you open the door
sorry a Jehovah's Witness
when you open the door
they're like
um
I need to call base
can you
don't close it
don't close it
just give me two seconds
yeah
yeah
they're still there
yeah what's
no one told me about
step two
what's step two
so I fucking
would march in mate and he's fucking wide eyed he doesn't know how to answer he's fucking checking his notes and all that and I was like Yeah, yeah, they're still there. Yeah, no one told me about step two. What's step two? So I fucking went marching, mate,
and he's fucking wide-eyed.
He doesn't know how to answer.
He's fucking checking his notes and all that.
So if I want to buy one of these right now,
they're going to let me on a flight with a fucking...
You lost something?
Got it.
They're going to let me on a flight
when they fucking said that it's got to fit in this thing.
You're going to sell us one of them,
and they're just going to take it off us at the gate.
And he was like,
oh, no, you order them to get delivered to your house?
And I'm like, well, it's a fucking bit late now i'm the oldest just started i'm not gonna get
delivered to my house it's still a terrible business model you actually get any customers
and he's just like treating us like a dickhead because that's what i am right now walked away
and as soon as i got back to report back with like you meant to order them to get delivered to home
we looked and he was fucking pulling the shutters doing in lock and running away i was like i've
just glitched the matrix
you're not meant to look at that part of the coding
you've just been handed a coaster
it's like that
it's like that bit in
the Truman Show
where he goes to the elevator
and it opens up
the other elevator opens up
and it's just all the
people on the computers
with the recording equipment
he's like
oh they're like
oh that elevator's broken
yeah it was that
I glitched the shit out of it
I just locked it shit out of it.
I just locked it off middle of the afternoon.
Gone for lunch.
Here's the...
Well, I'll talk about India
just a bit more
and then we'll talk about
the stag do
from the beginning.
I think would be the safest way
to do it with certain bits
edited out along the way.
I'm excited to gig in Indiaia i've heard from people that have
performed there that they are very like generous and excited audience and i think that combined
with how generous and excitable my audience are already i think the gigs are going to be amazing
i can't lie and say i'm not i'm excited to see the cities but i'm also very aware of the how i'm a very privileged person and i because of that
i deal with poverty very poorly the culture shock all right man fucking la is tough for me
like america i can't handle the homelessness in america and just how callous they are with it
but you know what though like with the homelessness in america and the homelessness in la i feel like
that's a lot of people like fucking like downbeat and struggling and having serious mental health issues and howling at the moon and fucking screaming on and making you feel unsafe.
When I saw the homelessness, not even the homelessness because it's like they live in shantytowns.
Is that what they call them?
Never been.
They call them slums?
Is that the wrong term?
I mean, probably.
They're all like busy and about their business and fucking
active and cognizant. I honestly thought you were going to be like,
they're singing songs, they're dancing, they're throwing
their fucking paint up in the air. Whistling.
They're all chimney
sweeps. Aye, they're just
coming into the veranda with a towel around their waist to
dry off.
It's, aye's I didn't
I didn't feel
like the war
unhappy
I didn't feel
like there was
a general demeanor
of like fucking
unhappiness
around when I
saw it
I'm excited as fuck
to meet the
people
I'm also excited
as fuck about
like I guarantee
there are jokes
I'll be able to do
in India
local Indian jokes
by the Indian people
after I get to fucking know them that I'll be able to do in India local Indian jokes by the Indian people after I get to fucking know them
that I'll be able to do here, sorry do there
that will be deemed offensive if I come back
same way with the fucking Japanese
yeah
I want to find out what the line
in India is but the one thing I'm
really really worried about is you've
you see how I perform, I insult my audience
right, whether I'm with them or whatever
and I regularly when outside of Scotland,
will refer to any other nation that's not Scotland
as you're a dirty, dirty Englishman and you're a dirty...
Don't call them Paki's, Danny.
No, that's not...
I've seen this as your friend.
Off the record, even though it's on the record, don't.
I guarantee that would be the the record don't I guarantee I guarantee
that would be the line for them
I guarantee
and not because
because today
it's not racist today
that's like walking on in Glasgow
and being like
alright yeah English
but
you are going to
if you go on in India
and be like
alright yeah
that word
it's not
they're not going to be like
that's derogatory
they're going to be like
Calamia Malcolm
yeah that's why that's offensive
no no
but you kind of
belong in the right lines
I can't call them
dirty dirty Indians
like I can't
like that's
that's a bit
where I'm going to have to
like self edit
the way I actually
fucking talk
because I would call anyone
you're a dirty dirty Welshman
what are you doing
I was even more
horrendous
I can't say it to them
because they are dirty
no
because other
people have used
the term
dirty dirty
Indian
it's a known
phrase from
bastards
before
colonialism
yes
you don't
you still want
to come across
like a
colonialist
no no
as I'm like
am I the
biggest act
in India
I came here
to dominate
I came here
to fucking
take over
wait a minute
there's a class
system here
and I could be top of it in a heartbeat over wait a minute there's a class system here and I could be
top of it
in a heartbeat
oh wait
no what
he's there
so I'm always
worried whenever
we go to
fucking new
places of
like going in
very aware of
how ignorant
you are of
everything
like I know
I know Indian
people so
therefore I know
like I know
but here
the Indian
social structure
is they've got
caste system
man and I can't even and that's like a dog has skin's worse is it But the Indian social structure is, they've got caste system, man.
And I can't even, and that's like a...
Darker skin's worse.
Is it?
Yeah, because that means they're like being exposed to the sunlight,
they're outdoor, they probably work as like,
if you've been indoors and you've been like sheltered from the sun,
you live like a more leader's life.
So they're not tanning in India.
They're bleaching.
They're bleaching?
They're bleaching their skin.
Because I queued up for skin bleaching cream
instead of suntan lotion
because I couldn't read
the article on the bottle
and you got to the front
of the line
and they were like
buddy you're done
buddy
buddy
you're not
your colour's not even
on the wall
you finished your course
you ran your course
like
can we use you
as the after photo
just to get other people
in here
I was just trying to get rid of
my freckles still had freckles i needed a bleach out um oh would that be i wonder if that's because
surely surely surely that would that they would want that if you if you're becoming so the whitest
thing in the world's a ginger cunt that's the whitest fucking thing in the world So do Indians want to be ginger?
I don't think so Nobody wants to be ginger
No but no
I know nobody in this country wants to be ginger
But if their thing is right
They want to have the pastiest fucking skin
There's nothing whiter than a ginger person
There's nothing
Albino?
Oh fuck alright go cave
Yeah alright but there's what 11 of those
10 when I get my licence
What a horrible joke
I know
I know
It's just four of them
You're after
I don't want to hunt them
To extinction
I think we should still
You know I'm going to hunt One of the older ones Andy Andy just don't want to hunt them to extinction. I think we should still, you know,
I'm going to hunt one of the older ones.
And he does not clear the mound.
I'm going to kill one of the older ones
that's infertile, that's lived its life,
that's stopping two of the younger albinos
from fucking each other.
They're only allowed to fuck each other.
We've got to keep that white race pure.
That I believe.
Not this one, not Caucasian,
but the albino. That's the white race we have to race pure. That, I believe. Not this one. Not Caucasian. But the albino.
That's the white race we have to keep pure.
What a horrible podcast.
I say podcast, it's me.
This podcast would be lovely if someone else was on it.
It's nice and old.
Yeah.
It's like people being like, oh, God, this church, what a bunch of wankers they are.
Mom, mom, mom.
Anyway, I think there's
a legit theory there
that if you were to ask
Indian people,
if you were to give them
the chance to become ginger,
I reckon 50%.
Do you reckon so?
Uh-huh.
They'd take ginger.
Pasty skin.
I reckon they'd like
the fucking freckles
because they're like that.
Yeah, because I think
there's still a...
Are they dying their hair?
I think there's still a pride
in who they are. They just want to be a lighter version of that. I think it's still a... Are they dying their hair? I think there's still a pride in who they are.
They just want to be a lighter version of that.
I think it's a complete change in race if you're going ginger, isn't it?
And for a very religious country,
there's no way they could possibly dare lose their souls.
Like, they're not going to...
Because there's the, like,
you want to look like you've been indoors, right?
You want to look like you've been indoors, which? You want to look like you've been indoors,
which is why you want to be lighter.
But, like, there's no amount of being indoors that will make you ginger.
So it takes away that.
Surely if you want to look like you're indoors,
you just want to come out, like, fat in a World of Warcraft shirt
with spots on your face, and they're like,
fucking, that cunt has never seen outside.
It's like, you know, when you get, like, working-class people
going to the sunbed centre and stuff.
That's just an inverse of, like, to make it look like you've got more money because you're
looking like you've been on holiday look like you've been away a few times a year you've got
a tan and all that right but you wouldn't get fucking sandra from ashton khan i want to be like
i want to be like full congo black not true not true what group of people are the ones that
regularly do black blackface at halloween the working class that's true it is them it's always them
it's always them
being like
but Demba Ba
is my favourite player
doesn't matter
doesn't matter
that he's your favourite player
wear his shirt
ask for a fucking autograph
there's a photo
that keeps creeping up
on my Facebook
from somebody
I went to school with
that got sent
to school
as Les Ferdinand
in the toon strip
fully blacked up
at the age of nine
aye aye
so there are definitely white people who fully blacked up at the edge of nine Aye aye So there are definitely
White people who are blacking up
Therefore I think it's unreasonable to say
That there's no Indians
Who are gingering up
And because there's heaps more ginger
There's heaps more Indians
Even if like 0.1% of Indians
Are gingering up
I think if you've got like
Naturally black hair
and you bleach it,
it doesn't go on blonde,
it goes like a ginger colour anyway,
so I think there'll be
some accidental gingers
in there.
That's the one
everyone looks up to.
Man, if you're ginger
and you're sick of this fucking life
in this white country
where you get bullied all the time,
go India, man.
God stays.
Here's the thing, though.
For them to believe
It'd be funny
If you got an hour to India
Thinking I'm going to do
The best comedian
And Carrot Top's already there
Killing it
No that's why I went to Vegas
Just to make sure he was there
I'm Chindian
Oh
So we're talking about Vegas
Vegas
You nearly lost your passport
In the airport
You did lose your passport
In the airport
I did but I didn't
I remember because We were sat down.
This was when we get to London.
This is when everyone,
well, not everyone who's going to be there is there.
Everyone that's flying from the UK
is coagulated in the wet of spoons.
19 of us, all in all,
get a couple of drinks.
We go to the gates.
That was very funny when you found out
there was going to be 22 people,
but you didn't know how many people were there
so I'm sat there
and people go
because everyone
fucked up
everyone fucked up
at some point
they let something slip
so I'm like telling
I'm telling Colin
like you fucked up
the other night
you told me
you accidentally told me
that fucking Can
was coming
I'm then going to
stop
I'm like you told me
two and a half years ago
you were coming
you text me
telling me he was the one where I was like I sent me two and a half years ago you were coming you text me tell me
he was the one
where I was like
I sent everyone
like a golden ticket
like off Charlie
and the truck
in fact
we just got like
you're coming to Vegas
the flights and hotels
should be covered
but like
I'll fucking keep you posted
with what the budget is
but it should be
pretty low budget
at your end
blah blah right
fucking immediately
thanked you
I was like
well I haven't even
fucking raised the money yet
and I'm telling everyone and then they were sat down you I was like well I haven't even fucking raised the money yet and I'm telling everyone
and then
and then we're sat down
and I'm like
I still don't know
because I'm counting
how many people are there
and Rooney's like
are you still fucking
trying to work out
what's going on
I'm like
and you know what
a little bit of me is
because I'm a fucking
control freak
and I just like
knowing things
so I'm like
I know
you're probably not
allowed to tell me
but am I allowed to ask
how many people
are actually coming on
because one of the fuck upsups was you said 20.
And I'm like, was?
But that would have got away as an approximation
if you got there and there was 19 in the airport.
Yeah, so I'm like, was it an approximation
or was 20 the exact thing?
I'm like, so I'm asking people.
And Rudy goes, you're a fucking idiot
if you think I'm telling you anything.
Sid's like, you're a fucking moron if you think I'm telling you anything.
Even though they just started talking about poker in front of you
at Rooney's wedding
Aye
They were just talking
About their poker tactics
Aye
Well to be fair
I know they play poker anyway
It wasn't them that fucked up
It was Gareth
Was it
Aye
Aye
He was the one that was like
Will you be doing that in Vegas then
And I was like
Hello
And Matt he's like
I'm not slipping up
I've not fucked up at all
And then we get all the way
Around to Nelson
And he just went
22
Like why He was like went 22 I was like
what the fuck
he was like
no what have I done
so that
so but while I'm
while I'm telling that story
sop it comes up to me
and just
you sit across me
because you daft cunt
your passport's just
falling out your
fucking things
on the floor
right so I'm like
oh fuck I'm in joggers
of course
so I sit at the back
of my joggers
go to the toilet
they call the fucking gate
check my pocket
it's not there so I know it's within 20 metres of where I am like so I sit at the back of my chokers go to the toilet they call the fucking gate check my pocket it's not there
so I know it's within
20 metres of where I am
so I'm not
I'm not panicked
in the sense
because we
we got a train
from the other terminal
if it was in the other terminal
I am fucked
it's over
train back
go to the airport
go to the pub
they've handed it in
somewhere else
yeah yeah
it's a half an hour thing
I'm either delaying the plane
for everyone but because you remember falling out of your pocket the first time you knew it it's a half an hour thing I'm either delaying the plane for everyone
but because you remember
falling out of your pocket
the first time
you knew it was nearby
I knew it was nearby
I'm like either
one of the lads
will have it
and here's the cam
I'm like
we're above this type of prank
even though
we've been pulling out
whoopee cushions
yeah sorry
for the eternal flight
we are above
stealing passports
well you know
but there is
I think there's a certain
type of prank
the way it makes a person feel.
If the prank makes somebody feel silly and like,
oh, I feel a bit fucking stupid, I'm fine with it.
If a prank induces fear into someone, I'm less okay with those pranks.
I was getting people who would come off the taxi or whatever,
and that guy left that on the seat in hand of my passport.
So they'd already got it back before they'd had a chance to worry about it.
But they're like, oh, my God, thank fuck.
I'm like, that's mine.
You can check your pockets.
So for me, taking somebody's passport, I'm like, it's a prank.
But for me, it crosses the border as a fucking cruel prank.
But everyone's just like,
Sloss has dropped his fucking passport.
We're running around.
It was handed in.
We're all fucking fine.
In the running around to collect your passport,
though, I left me duty free.
What did you?
Because I grabbed me fucking bags to go and run and run
looking for your passport,
but they didn't register that I was also carrying this new bag
that had joined the party.
Aye.
Well, I mean, there was a fucking huge fucking fiasco.
So here's the thing.
Like, we're a big stack of 19co so here's the thing big stag do
of 19 lads
but the thing
is you know
we look like
we're together
because we're all
hanging around
and fucking
laughing but
we're not all
out in costume
we're not
fucking
there's not
like shirts
there's not
like fucking
little silly
hats and
everything
and also
we're drunk
but we're not
lairy
we're not
chants
we're volume
conscious
we're aware
of how noisy
you know
we're not trying to ruin the story.
I don't know how the flight was because, as always, the second I get on to...
Actually, I woke up at one point for the meal.
I think I watched half of a movie.
You isolated me from the rest of the group because, like, we were in a big row.
But there was, like, row of mates, Isle, you, then me, and he just fell asleep.
So I had sleep with my aunt and then fucking Isle.
And then all my mates having a laugh over there and this poor lady next to
us and I'm just like right.
I hope this is one of those in-flight entertainment systems
where you can chat from seat to seat.
I want to play Bejeweled Blitz.
Are you guys having fun over there?
Craig!
I know you're laughing
but check the screen.
Check the screen.
You're not typing? He's not typing
Oh he just gives a thumbs up
Type thumbs up
There's no emojis you're laughing at
I watched Black Adam
Oh aye
It made the flight way longer than it needed to be
That was a ten hour movie
What a piece of shit
Anyway moving on from that
Is it stankin hot shit?
Stankin poo poo-poo.
Horrible.
Worse than Wonder Woman 2?
Like the worst of all of the things.
Really?
Okay.
Worse than The Eternals?
Uh-huh.
Okay.
Yeah.
Worse than any game?
Significantly.
So anyway, moving on from that.
I don't want to kill the mood
so we get to
Vegas
we
do you think
we're allowed to talk
about the thing
probably not
oh yeah
I mean probably
don't say his name
well
take a note of this
time here
so one of the guests
had been to Cuba
and there was a stamp
on their passport
saying that they'd been
to Cuba
right and then it fucking showed up on the front page of the ESTA application had been to Cuba, and there was a stamp on their passport saying that they'd been to Cuba,
and then it fucking showed up on the front page of the ESTA application
that you can't enter the States
if you've been to Cuba in the last two years.
Now, he had, he'd been to a wedding,
so he'd been in and out of Colorado,
but he didn't know about the fucking Cuba thing,
so he just did it flippantly, without knowing,
but now he knew,
and then it was like,
you can't apply for this waiver,
and it's like 150 quid, but it takes like fucking six weeks or whatever so if we started the
application he wouldn't have got the passport back so you had to just go hoping that they
wouldn't flick through and we took it upon ourselves to just say don't tell anybody because
if everybody's stretching their neck looking to see who it is that's like getting through it would
have just created this nervous tension and it would have looked
it would have felt obvious
well because
I get through
absolutely fine
like I'm having
fucking banter with the lady
she's like
you seem happy
I'm like
it's my stag do
I don't know what you call it
your bucks party
fucking bachelor party
we speak different
alright
and she was like
you know
we get speaking a bit
we get through
and then fucking
grabs me from behind
and hugs me and I'm like I'm expecting people to be excited
But this is like
9th time to Vegas
I can't believe we're here
Oh man
I couldn't look at him when we're going through
Because we'd been tense for weeks
It went from the fucking
Wondering if Mark was going to get there
Or not, like something's going to come up that, like, he's, like, his life's fucking hectic enough.
Without a Vegas trip in the middle of it.
And you're just like, oh, this could just fucking go tits up.
And then it, like, shifted to, like, he might be the one.
We're going to edit this quite a bit, I think.
He's going to be the one.
And then, like, he was in a different queue to me.
And I was just trying to look at the corner of my eye but trying not to stare.
And I saw her fanning through the pages
and I was like,
she's got to see the fucking stamp
and he's like chatting away
and he's taking a slight hand.
He's like,
look at me.
Do you ever shoot this
really high up magic trick I do?
Pick a card,
any card.
You can keep doing your job by the way.
You just keep looking up here.
It was literally that.
And then he got asked a couple of questions and
he was answering
them and then
he
what kind of
light bulbs
you got up
there
those are
those
those
those
neon
oh
that's
so
so
they last
quite a while
don't they
have you
oh that was
were you there
when Cody
was out drunk
it was like
three o'clock
in the morning
end of a session
everyone's hanging
in Cody's
like if you
start looking
for stuff to
do tomorrow
because it was a day when I was playing,
he was going to the Vegas Neon Museum
with all the original lights there.
And you'd walk through
and it's just all of the Vegas lights
and you're going through.
And I was like,
I'm going to be honest with you,
it doesn't sound class.
And then Matty just went,
I'll check it out if the Shoelace Museum should.
I don't think there's a better punchline than shoelace for that
for that form of joke i also actually think the old lights of vegas
it doesn't matter that's not what we're doing it was at the point of the sesh way just undermine
anything anybody says you don't need to explain toxicity to me we'll get to it's it's at the stage
of the night where you're trying to put everyone to bed so you can go to bed
so you're just demeaning
everything anybody's saying
so they feel like
their confidence
has been knocked
and they're like
I'm really struggling
in chat here
I'm going to go to bed
when their chat
is perfectly fine
you just need to
put them to bed
because I'm not
going to be going to bed
until everybody else does
it's like the conversation
version of those
like American mall competitions
where whoever keeps their hand on the wedding dress for the longest
gets it for free.
You're just doing that.
I'm going to fart.
I'm going to shit myself.
I'm going to start singing at the top of my fucking lungs,
just stinking the place out.
There's been a couple of times in my life
where I've been through the last four out of 20
and I've just been like, I'll just four out of 20 and I've just been like
I'll just go
out of bed
I've just
floated it
and you can
just see people's
face light up
like it's music
and I'm like
well I'll
make it to the
end
and all three
of them are
like thank
God you
suggested it
you fucking
losers
I'll be doing
stairs in the
bottom one
out I'll be doing stairs at the bottom of the world oh it would work
it would work
just the dejected
look on all their
faces as they went
is she coming
round the table
it was one of the
well we went to bed
at midnight and fucking Tom started trying to of the ways I went to bed at midnight
and fucking Tom started trying to give his hell
for going to bed at midnight.
And I was like,
it's midnight the next night for me.
You know when you slept.
You know when you were in bed for that good four hours.
Not even that much.
Stealing out a ceiling on your seventh coke wine.
You do know how I'm on last night.
So we land Vegas. seventh coke one you do know how I'm on last night aye so
we
land Vegas
we
aye
we'll have the panic
we didn't know was a panic
well I had the panic
aye
we get all of our stuff together
eh
we go outside
and
and then we introduce
the gown of shame
the gown of shame
so the original concept of it was
anyone who complains
at any point
anyone that's a buzzkill
anyone that's a buzzkill eh just has to put on this fucking nightie with a hat.
And it's just a way of being like, look...
Fucking guy's been a loser.
Like, we're all in Vegas together.
Like, if you're going to be a dick...
You're dressing like Scrooge for it.
Aye.
First fuck-up, I mean, there was...
The lowest fucking odds in Vegas was who was going to fuck up
first and get this fucking nightie.
It was obviously, Rich Massara
had bought some gin from Duty Free
so he could have some gin and tonics in his hotel room
so he didn't have to pay for very expensive drinks.
Oh, and just going downstairs to get them because you're like,
you're having a gamble and you can just drink in your room.
Aye.
And Tom Houghton comes out and just
in his big fucking
bumbling Boris Johnson
Tory fashion
I'm a Tory
fucking smashes his thing
he has to get that put on
we get on the bus
all start fucking drinking now the great thing about Vegas
is like there's the airport
and then there is Vegas and it is
like to give you context Matthew
our hotel is closer
to Vegas airport
than we are currently to Edinburgh airport
that's how Vegas works
it's the airport and there's also
another airport in
Vegas like right beside the Strip
but that's for like private flights and fucking
whatnot everyone starts getting
excited I was excited
For so many
Well one
Just because this thing
I've been two and a half years
In the fucking making
And it's finally there
I love that
It's holidays
It was a fucking good bunch
Got the whole crew together

I've you know
The only other time
We'll get that whole crew together

They don't want to give everyone COVID.
They're zooming in.
All right.
Who's that in the background?
Who's holding the camera?
I, buzzing off,
because so many people hadn't been to Vegas before.
Fucking, poor fucking Ricketts had never been to,
not only never been to Vegas,
Ricketts had never been to America.
That was his first time in America, was in Vegas. Going to Vegas Ricketts had never been to America that was his first time
in America
was in Vegas
going to Vegas
for your first visit
to America
when you've just turned 40
yeah
it's like losing
your virginity
at the age of 50
to somebody
shitting in your mouth
like it's like
it's like
don't get me wrong
like this
this does happen
and this is a part
of it sometimes
but have your teenage
fumble first
yeah
like come on
figure out tits New? yeah like come on man figure out tits
New York
Boston
like come on
Texas
Austin
Florida
yeah
I mean yeah
you know
definitely that's class
we get to
we're also
just wide eyed
at the strip coming in
because it's night time
when we got there as well
so
oh you know
it's funny as well
you missed it
on a lot of the chat
because Mark Nelson
got a connection
for Brewdog right
and that Brewdog is class
it's got like a fucking
it's like a sky bar
roof terrace
and all that
and you might not be able
to waltz in
and get a table
for fucking 22
immediately
so he used a contact
to try and fucking
organise the table
for the first night
but the chat of him
coming in
I've got a connection to Brewdog I'm going to be able to get rid of him coming into the watch I've gone I've got a connection
to Brewdog
I'm going to be able
to get rid of him
I'm like
oh I've got any chance
you could get us
into WH Smith
in the airport as well
you know
just one of these places
that you can notoriously
just waltz in off the street
I mean
man is there any chance
you can get me
into church
next Sunday
I've been wanting to go
I've been wanting to go
for years
I just haven't got in
the queue
I'm always in the queue
but there's some people camp out overnight I just can't got it in The queue I'm always in the queue But there's some people
Camp out overnight
I just can't
I can't do it
So there's a lot of chat
About that
And then I fucking looked it up
And I was like
Aye that's 100% what we're doing
Yeah
Classical
So we all check in
We're all drinking in our rooms
We're all getting silly
Oh we've turned up to fucking
30 grams of gear
Oh yeah We've turned up to fucking 30 grams of gear Oh yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
We've turned up to
It was already sorted
This is something
I'll need to acknowledge
Very early on
I don't think anyone
Listening to the podcast
Will be surprised
Since Carol was not
Even remotely
Surprised
But after
Two and a half
Years of me
Being like
I'm not touching coke
Of that part of my life
Is fucking over
And also I don't trust the fact
That there's not like fentanyl in it
Like I've read all those stories
Just not doing it
Turned up with
Please put that name
I found a reputable
Yeah hold on
So somebody
One of the guests found
30 grams of cocaine
From his like regular dealer
Who tests and is like
You know does it himself and he just gave
me this whole fucking speech of being like you know it's this i've had it myself i've tried it
before this guy doesn't you know do that he's a good guy as well because i met him at the end to
drop off my leftover mushrooms and uh and then so it was just like it's your fucking stag do
and i'll kill you if you don't. And I was like, well, okay.
It was funny as well
because I was like,
you know what,
I'll be first ones
over the trenches.
I fucking organised it,
right?
And I had knocked up a lane
and I was like asking Barry
if he wanted one.
So I fucking knocked up
these like reasonably
just like fucking mild lanes
to start off.
We're going in the shower.
Let's find out
if he's fucked up or not,
right?
And I got out the shower
and he was like,
do you want a real one now?
With a massive slug
massive slug
on the desk
and I was like
fuck me in for a penny
and then
it was just like
late at night
in the evening
you just saw
still alive
and you were like
canaries down the main
went to Brewdog
that's when the
Nick Cody surprise
happened
which was like
because I put him
On the fucking list
But with everything
With his fucking radio job
The fact that he's a father
Of two and he lives in Australia
And he's already flying
To Scotland
And he's been dealing
With some shit at the minute as well
Yeah
And he's also coming to Scotland
For the fucking wedding
I was like
There's no way I'll be there
So he was a proper surprise
He set up his studio
In his room
And did radio
Every
What a dog Every afternoon So he would He would like Finish the sesh Go in there And have like one hour of sleep He set up his studio in his room and did radio every afternoon.
So he would finish the sesh, go in there and have one hour of sleep
and then turn up and just start talking about
what his fucking favourite tuck shop combo was to people driving to work.
It was so funny because his co-host is an ex-AFL,
Aussie Rose football player called Brendan Favola.
AFL players Are notoriously
Just fucking dogs
Like they're always drinking
They're always in the newspaper
Getting in trouble
Doing stupid fucking shit
He's with a retired
One of those
But he's only retired
From the sport
Nothing else
Cody would say
Like every morning
He's going on the thing
Hungover
And at the end of like
The three hour
Radio thing
Brendan's like
You're not fucking done in Vegas
Until you're 20 fucking grand down
Okay That's when you're fucking done You in Vegas until you're 20 fucking grand down okay
that's when you're fucking done
you get back out there
you keep fucking
between songs
you keep fucking
you play a song
you've got four minutes
go and put a fiver on red
and come back with a bloody Mary
man honestly
like
Nick would get two hours sleep
do that radio thing
and then he would come downstairs
like he was in the final
of the fucking Superbowl
and he'd been pumped up
by like
woo let's do this you're like buddy it's 2pm like we're done this energy's good stairs like he was in the final of the fucking Super Bowl and he'd been pumped up by like, WOO!
Let's do this! You're like, buddy, it's 2pm
this energy's good
but we're off the top golf
That first night
when we get back to the fucking casino and we all just
get into our fucking gambler, I've got a couple of stories
to tell here so feel free to fucking interrupt with anyone
you want to tell but just try and keep
track of where I am in this
good luck
roulette is
my game because I don't think in Vegas
you're ever going to find better odds than 50-50
that's if you're betting red or black
I mean I know it's not 50-50
it's 49-49 because of the fucking greens or whatever
I've got my numbers that I play
and roulette is a table you can stay on for a while
standard rules that we've always had in Vegas
you stick 20 in the machine
and you sit there, you get your drinks
if at any point you double your money
you cash out fucking immediately
if you get up to like 60 whatever
you cash out and then like that
you save the double up
and then any extra you can stick back in the machine and bet
and it's just a surefire way of ensuring that
either you double your money or
you only lose 20 bucks.
That was how we used to do Vegas and that's how we're all doing Vegas at this point.
I'm there and there's
currently nothing to say but welcome to
who I am now.
20 doesn't touch the sides, man. That's not.
It's like people who smoke weed for the first time
will be high for five fucking hours. They'll giggle.
They'll still be a bit lethargic
the next fucking day. Great. I'm a seasoned st stoner i need two edibles when i wake up i need a fucking split
for my fucking coffee my tolerance is high my money tolerance is higher yeah i went i went to
the table playing craps right just to figure out the game because i knew how to play it i just
needed to rerun so i went on the machine five minimum bets and that right and i'm just fucking
playing and i got me fucking 20 bucks up bets and that right and I'm just fucking playing
and I got me fucking
20 bucks up to 150 bucks
right
and then I was like
right I'm ready for the table
took it out
took it out of the table
lost it in a second
I'm like fuck
I took it out
that was
that was graft
alright
so that
that first night
I'm just
and again
I'm getting more drunk
I'm with a bunch of fucking boys
right
and I get to the point
where I've put 100
I've put 100 in the machine
and I've gone up to like fucking 200 and...
Oh, I think maybe 300, right?
And I think really sort of from my shoulder,
it's like watching you gamble.
It's disgusting because you're just putting fivers on things
like that, you know, I'm putting bigger fucking...
On the fucking numbers rather than on the red and black.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm just gambling bigger numbers
I mean don't be wrong
in the scope of Vegas
I'm still
I'm on the ball
I'm so low
I'm on the tiny
I didn't see you
digging that hole
in the Blagio
no
no no
not that far
but night one
when I'm fucking drunk
I'm like I'll bet
fucking tenors on single
blah blah blah
people gathering around
because man I've taken up
from fucking 100
300
everyone's like cash out
just fucking cash out and I'm like absolutely I'll
cash out Ricketts red or black
he's like don't make me do it I'm like do it red or black

obviously
because I'm like
that's insane
1200 quid
you've got to get your
hand your passport in
they've got to make you
fucking sign stuff
for that amount of money
in fucking Vegas
I'm like this is it
take me to the fucking
high road that was on the machine wasn't it yeah yeah so it doesn't let you cash out that on a slip no no no they've got to make you fucking sign stuff for that amount of money in fucking Vegas, I'm like this is it take me to the fucking Hyde River
so that was on the machine wasn't it?
so it doesn't let you cash out that on a slip
so
Ricketts comes up and congratulates me
that was unbelievable
after I got my winnings I've got a spare
I'm like stick it at the table and I go

I'm
getting involved in this. The look of the Irish
I'm like absolutely baby
I still get a hundred dollars and he's like
red for Arsenal
green
green for Ireland
and that was Cullen
for the rest of the fucking time
all holiday
there will be a separate podcast
that we do
it'll be the next one
on the fucking Patreon
where I'll have Cullen on
and I'll talk to him
because me and him
need to talk about
some shit that happened
in fucking Vegas
that can't look
I'm not kidding
you touch your table and it would go sour.
For everyone that was...
You'd be doing well at your table,
you'd touch it and it would just start
fucking chipping away at you.
You can't just give it the touch of death.
That man lost 90% of the 50-50s I saw him play.
It was remarkable.
It started becoming funny.
I mean, it was always funny,
but it started becoming comical.
It started becoming scripted.
It was like...
It was unbelievable, it was unbelievable
how much he was losing 50-50s.
And not only with his own,
with my money,
so because of,
and for anyone that was rightfully
while listening to me
talk about spending all that money,
they'd be like,
what a fucking obnoxious
prick's loss it's become now
that he's become a bit wealthy.
Here's the fucking comeuppance, right?
Despite being that much up
on fucking day one,
on that Vegas trip,
I still had to go to
The ATM twice
And I came back
With nothing
Right
Because you put it
All back in
Yeah and because
I trusted Cullen
Seven fucking times
Because you thought
You thought like
It's odds on
For one of his
50-50s to come in now
I swear to fucking god
There was one night
Right where I
Steaming drunk
At a table
So drunk
That I put the wrong
Bet down once
Thought I'd won,
and the lady was like,
that wasn't your bet.
Oh, it was on a table
while watching the wrong wheel?
No, no, no,
it was at a table.
Oh, right,
because there was one that we did
where we watched it come in,
and then it fucking was on a different,
because there's a red table and a blue table
and we're watching the wrong wheel on the screens.
No, no, this one was,
it was the same fucking table.
I just got,
oh man, I was steaming drunk,
I couldn't fucking see.
I thought that was my chip. I was like, that's my chip, she's like, it's not. She's like, don't try that again. I was steaming drunk I couldn't fucking see thought that was my chip
I was like
that's my chip
she's like it's not
she's like don't
try that again
I was like I wasn't
trying anything
and then I'm like
fucking I hate when
people think you're
drunker than you are
it's fucking
so annoying
like I can fucking
compose myself
and I look down
I'm like
oh that's not a
one dollar chip
that's a
that's a ten dollar chip
that's a ten dollar chip from Black 11 god fucking that's the last one dollar chip that's a that's a ten dollar chip that's a ten dollar chip from
black 11 god fucking damn what fucking god that's the last of my money black 11 i was like
unbelievable 360 but i'm like i can't i can't i cash outcomes like let's let's go double it
i'm not doing it i'll stick 250 in and then you know he's like absolutely he's like
it's gonna to be red.
I'll give you one guess.
Green.
I did that as well where he was at the poker table.
He was just chatting away, right?
And he fucking just, like, he just kept taking the fucking five
or whatever off the top, putting minimum bet on his hand
and then playing the hand or whatever, right?
And then he played his hand, won it and went,
fang fuck for that, that was 100.
He was like, f**k for that that was 100 he was like f**k for that he's like if i knew it was 100 i wouldn't have twisted um so during so during this gareth was true to his words and kept plying me with f**king
drinks i'm doing heaps drinks anyway around about four in the morning the reason i know i was very
very drunk was because on night one of my stag do at four in the morning i the reason I know I was very, very drunk was because on night one of my stag do,
at four in the morning,
I walked up to ten of the lads
and I went,
I might,
I might go to bed
and every single one of them went,
yeah,
yeah, man, that's yeah.
You were literally
in the nightgown at the time
because you'd fell down one step
as if it was loads of steps.
Oh, no.
You kept on tumbling.
I gotta, i gotta thank fucking
uh ricketts for this right because the whole point of the night game was is if you're ruining it and
if you're being a buzzkill right so i stumbled down i don't fall over my drink was still in my
hand and the drink didn't spill i didn't spill any on me but so it went down you did hit the
deck and then he went down on the shoulder but got up and fucking i think it's like matty and
gareth Fucking run over
Lobbying
And the one thing
I've learned
From many many lads holidays
Is you don't lobby back
If somebody's demanding
You do something
Suck it up and do it
Because complaining
Is just going to
But I'm like
Ricketts must have been like
Oh if you're giving it away
For that
I'm going to be in it loads
I need to defend
The game's parameters
Aye
But also
But man
I wasn't being a fun sponge
By falling over
I just fucking fell over
I was like
But he came over and argued
He was like
Well you're changing the rules of the game
At this point
Just be aware
Anyway
Ended up putting in
I go to bed at 4am
I mean the rest
I mean people that night
I think stayed out till
I think all the way through
Yeah well
I went back to the room
And there was like
People taking care of the room
and it got to like seven
and there was maybe five who were left
and two of them wanted to go and watch the Arsenal game.
So we just fucking got in a taxi
and went to this pub.
And it was just this fucking,
had like Britain bunting up.
There was a fucking big cardboard cut
out life size of the Queen,
which Mark Nelson stole
and put in Rich Massara's bed.
Did you see the joke where Rich Massara had made a bed sheet
and it was like Captain Tom arriving in heaven
and people welcoming him, like Madeleine McCann were up there
welcoming him to heaven and the Queen was there and all that, right?
This bed sheet, and on the last day,
he put the bed sheet onto his bed
and Nelson just went, fuck you, Rich, and sent the picture
and he was like, what do you mean, fuck you?
You've had it on every night this week.
And then posted every picture away away just draped it over him
he's like in the morning
or when he got in
he draped the sheet
over him
and just does this reveal
about all the photos
of the bed
the bed spread
the bed spread
was on him
every single night
that he went to bed
so we went
straight from that pub
and met you guys
at Topgolf
so whenever he's got up
and had your breakfast
or whatever
so we
me
Colin Ricketts me and a group of five lads at you guys at Topgolf so whenever he's got up and had your breakfast or whatever so we, me, Colin
Ricketts, me and a group
of five lads went to Planet 13
to pick up
like the first bunch of fucking weed we were
going to be having on the trip
and this is the
the night before had been fucking silly and
boisterous and boys
being idiots and stuff
Topgolf was the day it got toxic.
And I take responsibility for some of it,
for being some of the people.
You had such a toxic group in your booth.
Man, so we get to the Topgolf bit,
which is amazing.
We've got like three booths.
We've got all this fucking food up the back.
We've got food.
Texas barbecue at the back.
Just so our booth had its own barbecue to it.
And it was also free rolling drinks
because we just paid the money per head for drinks.
And I thought that meant
they were just going to be stingy.
And you'd struggle to find a barmaid
because she was just our personal fucking chaperone
and just kept the drinks full to the brim
all the way through it.
Bear in mind, we'd still been up
before we travelled
I start doing this bit with Cullen which is just
going up to him and being like
have you taken any weed this holiday
and he'll be like you watched
me take an edible 30 minutes
ago and I'm like
I think your marijuana smoke is making your memories
much worse I think you need to take another
he's like I'm not going to do
so we're in the booth at this point we've taken edibles before we get there
and I know it's half an hour before
but I'm getting giddy
and it hasn't even fully kicked in yet
I know
but it's 10 milligrams
me and Colin's tolerance
is fucking
way past
anyone else there
so I'm like
fucking come on man
we'll be absolutely fine
he's like I'm not doing it
I'm not doing it
I took one literally 30 minutes ago
and I'm fucking drinking
and I've had two hours sleep
and I just start going
he's like
it's not
it's not going to work
and you're like
and then someone hears you
and they join in
like
or someone else behind
and then you start like
scratching at the
we don't even know
what we're clicking at
and then they
and soon enough
it's 21 men
just in these places
going
and Kyle's like
fine fine
fuck it all
that just became the culture
for the whole trip as well.
The amount of shit
that I shot at and took,
even though I knew
I was fucking sideways
and I'd already been
fucking my legs taken.
I was putting stuff
down the hatch
because people were
cooking out chickens.
That fucking sound,
that fucking sound
is the reason I did mushrooms
when I didn't want
to do mushrooms.
When I fucking stayed up
for four extra hours
when I didn't want
to fucking stay up.
You just be like, I'm not really in the
and then I'd
I'd have had a line
in my room
and then I'd gone into
somebody else's room
to say well even now
and they'd go
and I've knocked you up a line
and you're like
oh I've just had
and then you'd like
you could just see them
foaming their lips
and you're like
pass that fucking note
right now
yeah right then
I'll die
I'll die
so not to be a coward
it was a horrible culture
it's so dumb
it's so funny
it's such a horrible way to ensure
that everyone has the maximum
amount of fun as possible
none of us are allowed to slow down
and I've got this perfect way
because
as well the way i organized i was
just like oh right we'll finish that free bar and then we've got to be in fancy dress at the party
bus in like three hours so you've got a couple hours to just get showered get changed into your
stuff have a nap if you want i'm going for a nap i'm not going for a nap then i'll have a line then
on the walk back right I am walking up and down
our fucking queue of lads
walking back,
like,
just like
Mary Poppins,
but like,
just squawking,
like,
muck, muck, muck, muck, muck, muck.
The chickens scatter in the corner.
Oh, man.
Yeah, yeah.
Just,
muck, muck, muck, muck, muck.
To the point where,
like,
Colin comes up to me,
he's like,
I am in trouble here.
Can and Tom went to their room for like two and a half hours,
were like super fucked up.
I don't think they could find the door.
Oh yeah, they didn't take that edible well.
They nearly didn't make it back out.
I think it was Megalohat, I don't know where,
just going, look, this is one of the things,
there's like five events where everybody's together at once.
They didn't fuck this up.
And they really had to pull themselves up by the bootstraps to get back in the mix.
And that was when it was revealed
that it was the Marvel night.
And you had a custom-made Natasha Romanoff.
I did, aye.
One suit.
That's why you were just,
I think you were changing, Caelan,
and I'd just come up with a tape measure
and started measuring your chest.
Yeah, I was like, all right.
I mean, it fit well.
It was comfortable.
And everyone else was dressed up as...
Man, I can't fucking call Milo out here, right?
I am very, very aware that I am not the...
I don't think it's...
I think I'm an expressive person,
but I don't think I'm as expressive as I am
when it comes to like
Excitement
Or positive
Ones right
And that's been brought up
By Gina on the podcast before
Yeah
Being like
It's not that I'm not grateful
But just your way of
Showing gratitude
Is you know
Minimal
And leaves a lot to be desired
Something I'm working on
So
But
It's
I'm never enough
For Milo right
Yeah he wants you
To just be like,
oh my God, you did this for me?
Let alone me start crying, man.
I put on my fucking Natasha Romerov costume, right?
I watch you put on your...
Oh, Spider-Man.
I thought I'd done myself a solid by doing Spider-Man
because you can get like a decent level screen accurate,
like one suit so you don't have to have much on.
Just that, right?
Fucks you up because you need
to take your clothes
off fully to piss
you also need
to take your clothes
off fully to use
your phone
because your arms
are in
and you've got
no pockets
I totally fucked
myself up
I've been that
level of inebriated
trying to organise
everybody
and I can't
use my phone
I ended up
wearing a jacket
because there's
a picture of
Miles Morales
from the multiverse
where he's got
a very similar jacket
to what I had on
and the exact same Chicago Lost and founds that you had on.
So I ended up being screen accurate with pockets.
I'd seen you dress up as that.
I'd seen Ali dress up as...
He was Black Widow.
You were Black Widow.
He was Hawkeye.
Yes, yes, he was.
He was like post-accident Jeremy Renner.
Black Widow you were Black Widow
he was Hawkeye
yes yes he was
he was like
post-action
Jeremy Renner
and I'd seen
I'd seen
Sopwitz was the best
yeah
Sopwitz as Star-Lord
he was like
he texted us back
who the fuck's Star-Lord
because obviously
Sopwitz is not that
fucking banging
into the Marvel Universe
right
Sopwitz
so who the fuck's Star-Lord
two minutes later
this is me
he has the fucking
perfect outfit
and then you'd have Elliot who was dressed as a fucking tree as Tom pointed out who the fuck's Star-Lord? Two minutes later, this is me. He has the fucking perfect outfit.
And then you'd have Elliot who was dressed as a fucking tree,
as Tom pointed out.
The thing that you give the shit kid
to dress as in the nativity
because it's the least difficult thing to dress as.
And he was like still shopping in the airport
for his outfit.
Milo comes through at one point
and I'm like,
hey, he's like,
how you feeling?
I'm like,
I'm fucked, man.
Like I'm on a cocktail of
weed and booze
and lack of sleep and fucking cocaine.
And aye, but I'm having a good time.
He's like, you've not reacted to anyone's costume.
I'm like, I'm dressed as Black Widow.
Like, this is the joke suit.
Like, this is it.
I'm the one dressed as the hot lady
wearing the spandex fucking...
Everyone else's costumes
are great and I'm very happy,
but I'm not going to be like,
oh my God, no way.
I'm dressed as Black Widow.
Like, what...
You know what was funny
with Milo's outfit?
He was low-key, right?
And his came with a muscle suit.
Now, Milo's are really muscly.
Matty was Thor
and his came without muscles.
Man, he...
He looked like Axl Rose.
No, he didn't
he looked like
Will Ferrell
in Eurovision
I did
he was the
fucking spitting dad
a lot of people
were telling me
he looked good
he was like
why are you lying
I'm telling you
I think it did
I just kept going
sing your
I got a dick dog
sing your
I got a dick dog
I think we're
going to have to
wrap this up this is going to have to wrap this up.
This is going to have to be two parts.
And there'll be an interlude with Colin on,
I guess unless you want to do the Thursday one.
I'm going to come through on Wednesday.
So we'll put a bookmark in this.
So we're still on day two, Topgolf Marvel Night.
We'll call it an interlude here
and we'll fill you in on the rest of it on Thursday
that's a real clickbait
thing to do to them as well
because the public
are going to hear this one
and the other one's a Patreon
oh
practical fucking geniuses
expect a spike
a three quid
what happens next
what you won't believe
I said what to Colin
what
how many fingers
ended up in Tom's
asshole
find out next time
you find out
oh you find out
about Tom
disgracing himself
you find out about
who won the
poker tournament
you find out about
the fucking
taking acid
you can't watch
tournament of kings
that was a fucking
bad dark day
come back
we had the weekend at Bernie's, Cullen, after that.
I've seen the pictures because I wasn't paying much attention to anyone else
apart from fucking my visuals that I was having.
But anyway, we're clickbaiting the shit out of you.
Pay your three quid, listen to it, and then just cancel your subscription.
Aye, aye, aye, aye.
But gie us that money first.
And hey, it's not going to Vegas anymore.
Yeah, we'll spend it on mic stands
We can move without them making a noise
Stuff like that
It's going back to you
We'll be reinvesting in you
Right, so
Aye, in a bit
Also
If you sign up to Patreon
We've got a roast that we've recorded
Because we haven't even got to that bit yet
Aye, but realistically
How much of that roast is going out?
like about half of it
and we're not putting the video up
it's going to probably end
it's probably going to end careers if we put
out the raw footage but also the dignity
of our partners
they didn't sign up for that
so there's a handful
of shit, I mean I'm still going to show
Natalie the full thing
at some point
but you can't expect everyone else to be that sound
so
aye there's got to be something
of a roast that we'll show you and we'll also have
like a crowd facing camera that
we might have to be very tactical
with when it faces the crowd
just get rid of all the visuals
look
we're going to put something out for you
but
can there just be like a no snitches tier
where we're just paying
there's at least
40% of that stuff
there's one of the things that Mark Nelson says
that just still rings in my head
going like I would have been scared to say that
even if I knew it wasn't
being recorded
in case anyone repeated it anyway enjoy that episode it's still coming soon
