Sloss and Humphries On The Road - 5.50: Thisis Nicholson
Episode Date: October 4, 2023This is the last unprofessional episode, we're shooting the next one in our pimped out studio with three camera angles, shit hot cameras, with scopes (people call them lenses but I know what they are)... so you'll be able to see right up our noses. All the gear and no fucking idea has never rung so true. If you only ever listen to this, it will barely change a bit, apart from the new mic arms that don't fire through the mic every time we readjust. Oh this episode... if I remember right it's very funny, if you're fooled into laughing when we laugh this is a good podcast for you. Daniel has just returned from a gay wedding so of course he feels he's renewed his hall pass to be problematic, this descends into the stomping through a minefield you've come used to after several years in our company. Enjoy. Thank you for propelling us through this journey as we transition into becoming a professional outfit, some proud dads out there watching us graduate.

Sloss and Humphries on the road!
Muggins and cream, cream and muggins, straight thuggin', livin' the dream
That's our intro
Fuckin' muggles!
Tickling 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
Aww, muggles!
Accidental rim job in the park
Kiss kiss kiss
Or am I just being cynical?
Just muggled it up on fuckin' Mugglepedia
Where have you been since 9-11?
Tell you what, them poofs know how to get married.
Aye, I bet they do.
They've been pining after it for years.
Fighting for it.
It would be a fucking bastard wouldn't it if they just met a pig's ear of it.
After all that struggle.
Well, I mean, look, given how much you love your wife, you know,
if the government had told you you weren't allowed to marry her,
do you love her enough to march down the street for it
and, like, campaign and cut friends out of your life?
That's really gay, that, man.
That's really gay.
If my love for Natalie was forbidden...
Mm-hm.
Class.
Oh, yeah, it would make it way better.
I'd feel like a great kinky bitch.
Look, here's the thing.
I reckon in australia
before they legalized gay marriage i reckon gay sex was better than it is now a prohibition yeah
prohibition sex okay absolutely like it's like just getting to shag your partner being like god
half of the country fucking hates that we're doing this it's a skin crawl i could it makes
them feel something makes their skin crawl
because it makes
their boss tingle
aye
why do I like that
you're going to
appreciate that
way I'm from
so I
flew out to Australia
for five days
for
Rhys Nicholson
and
Kyron's
wedding
are they now
Nicholson Wheatley
or the
Wheatley Nicholson's
I think their second name
is just Gay
is it
yeah
Rhys and Kyron Gay
Kyron Gay
that's what they called me
in school
I was trying to
I was trying to catch it
it's dream fun
that is a good question
I'm not sure
I think
I think they'll keep
their own names
because obviously
for Rhys' career they're known as Reese Nicholson and and um I don't know if Kyron would take yeah god I
don't know I genuinely don't know Kyron Nicholson does that sound nice Reese Wheatley has there been
any um female comedians that have changed their name mid-career?
I can't think of any off the top of my head.
Oh,
because they got married?
Because their name's
the brand.
Yeah.
I'm not going to
talk about that.
I'm not.
I don't think so.
Because that would be
a good,
that would be a very solid
argument like you know
how I said to Cara that I was keen
for her to take my second name
and thankfully because she was happy there wasn't too
much you know compromise involved
if she'd been
a professional comedian I don't think I would have
dared suggest it
Hi I'm a little nobody you want to take my second name?
Motherfucker What are you talking about about grow the fuck up man i'm busy i'm making as money i made jokes about how i thought it was archaic to take this uh take the
man's surname and i was like but i couldn't have took her name not out of the macho bullshit just because her name's Ling and Kai Ling
and some Chinese
like I did that as a bit
but like
I am archaic in that
I'm not taking that
I'd be so happy
if I heard it again
I don't want to
change my name
look this is
an absolutely
toxic opinion
that is about to
come out of my mouth
and I'm very aware
that a lot of growth
needs to go into it and over the next months and years oh we'll probably talk about this a year
ago and said that we needed to grow and look we didn't shut the fuck up we got new listeners they
don't know we're liars yet they're working their way through the back catalog they'll find out
i and i said this to like i was hanging when i was in australia i was staying uh with my very
very good friend, Jean,
or fame from, you know, fucking Dark and Jerks,
I mentioned her and all of those.
I was hanging out with her friends,
and she's got very progressive, very liberal, feminist friends,
and sometimes antagonising people is fun,
and sometimes being honest is fun,
and I was sitting there and they were getting engaged
and I said how guilty I'd felt
making Cara take my second name
because like watching her have to
change her passport,
change her driving licence,
change her signature,
all this stuff,
I felt like a bad man
and a bad,
you know,
fucking feminist.
But I was like,
but on the record,
I don't think I could shake the hand of a man who took his
wife's second name hi and if you could it would be limp maybe a limp ass handshake i'm like if
your wife doesn't take your second name absolutely that's the day we fucking live in fair enough
i also still think there's some romance and chivalry i do that thing where if we're walking in
like a pavement on the
sidewalk to the Americans on the side of traffic,
I'll always walk on the traffic
side because I'm insured.
Because there's heaps in my world
because I'm the man.
If she was there,
why am I getting a bunch of fucking eyelash extensions?
The unsympathy fuck.
Girls that wanted to fix somebody.
Is that all I get?
Is this the ally you cunts wanted?
Is this who he is?
You see, how far did your hero worship go now,
you daft cunts?
Speaking of which,
just for the fucking record
I don't want to talk about it yet
But for the record
Russell Brand is not the person
Or friend X was about
Like I have
Friends messaging me
Just to let you know
TikTok is doing TikTok detective work
And they think that like
Your friend who raped your other friend Was Russell Brand And by the way the most insulting thing about that TikTok is doing TikTok detective work. And they think that like your friend
who raped your other friend was Russell Brand.
We have now, and by the way,
the most insulting thing about that
was that I would ever be friends with Russell Brand.
I need to be his fan for that.
It's not, it never was.
I have never had any interaction with Russell outside of,
I think he was on a,
I think he was the judge.
Ross Battle,
yeah.
Where they cut all the jokes out about the things he did.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
Anyway.
We were at a gay wedding.
I was at a gay wedding,
and I felt,
I cannot fucking tell you,
and this is so pathetic.
I got Reese's pronouns right the whole fucking time i was i was batting a hundred man because there are they right
and every other time and by the way and they've been a day for four years now so for three years
in 11 months i'm like he he he he and Kyron's like
they them
they them
I'm like
alright
now you've got to call
now you've got to call
them missus
is it this is
if them are married
this is
this is Nicholson
this is Nicholson
this is Rhys Nicholson
I felt so fucking perfect
Because people in the best man speeches
And the stuff
They were
They were misgendering
Reece
And I'm there being like
They
The best them
The best them
The best us
I was
I was batting a hundred
There
Having a fucking
Great time
Now
It was a beautiful wedding.
We get there, I get to hang out with, like,
fucking Nick Cody and his wife's there.
And they're away from the kids for the weekend.
Like, it's their time off.
So I'm like, these cunts are going to get fucking smashed.
It's also because I've been going to Australia for 14, 15 years.
It's all the comedians that I've known over the years.
Me and Rhys are with the same agent.
So it's like
All of our agents are there
All the real
The good fucking people
Of like the past years
Of my career are there
I'm sat in the front row
With Zoe Kumsmar
And
Because
Knowing
Rhys has been like
My oldest friend in comedy
Like when I went to
Sydney Comedy Festival
In 2009
That's when me and him
Became
Then
Fuck
Became friends
Yeah
You lasted the wedding
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
And also
You did the important bit
Yeah
And they were a him back then
That was
That was back when
Oh yeah
Yeah yeah
They were a him back then
Can you dead name someone
When you're talking about them
Right respectively From the From the past I don't think I don't think there's such a thing back then oh yeah yeah yeah they were him back then can you dead name someone when you're talking about them right respectively
from the
from the past
I don't think
I don't think there's such a thing
as like dead gender
in someone
no no not
but like even dead naming
if you were like
if
if you were talking about
Bruce Jenner
in the Commonwealth Games
or whatever
but you were talking about
when
he was an athlete
before she was Caitlin
like
nosh
in the gender politics,
you're not going to have to...
And then he said, pretend.
Pretend.
Pretend is the wrong word.
Follow along with their flights of fancy.
It's not even how I meant it.
I meant it as like, you're not having to reinvent the past in that you're picturing caitlin jenner if you can't picture if you have such an imagination
witchcraft um you're not picturing the person they are now you're picturing the person they
were like when i talk about a childhood friend and a school story i'm not like describing them
as the grown-ass man they are today.
They're still the boy they were then,
even though their body has changed completely since that moment.
I'm not pretending grown man was in the fight in school.
I'm not sure the right thing.
So if you say him about Reece Nicholson from 2009,
that was the rules of the game then?
Yeah. It's not a game and
also like Reese is Reese is just not Reese is just non-binary because I get a confusing thing
with so Cassie Workman uh who is uh I've been a fan of hers for years even back when she was
I was a fan of her work back when she was like this is a minefield back when she was I was a fan of her work back when she was like this is a minefield
back when she was Michael Workman right
and so the like one of my favourite bits
of stand up and or live
sort of spoken word I've ever
seen was Michael Workman's
I think it was
called The Troll and it was about
her father his father
I've no idea the politics
of it I've no idea if I have to say like,
it was Cassie Workman's show
or whether like saying like,
I don't know.
And I'm even too scared to ask her.
Yeah.
I'm like, you know when you were funny
back when you were a man?
Before you were middle spot.
Is this the ally you came to see? Is this it? Is this the ally you came to see?
Is this the ally you're tuned in for?
You fucking Bad ally
The worst
Never claimed to be one
I don't think that's true
I think I probably have at one point
Hey hey
The best politicians
Don't want to be politicians
But you can refer to me As the UK comedy scene's only ally.
I'm sat with Zoe Kumsma in the front row.
And because I've known Reese for 15, 16 years now,
and I've known them with Kyron for 98% of that,
and seeing how in love they are over the years,
and seeing them not be allowed to get married like see them like
Really denied by the government the fucking human right to get married to each other
And I'm also set beside Zoe Zoe and Reese got pretend married at the Melbourne Fringe in like 2000
So that again pretend divorced. Yes, you did actually
You gotta commit but I mean technically not if you get committed you've got to commit I mean technically not
if you get divorced
you've got to uncommit
if you're committing to the bit
Zoe's lesbian
Rhys is gay
so in 2015
I'm pretty sure
before the plebiscite
happened in Australia
they got married
like a lesbian married
a gay man
to be like
so we can do this
gay people can get married
yeah so we could do this
we could marry someone
we're not into
and you'd all be fine with this.
They made a big fucking show of it.
It was excellent.
Excellent.
And then everybody's there, all the voters are like,
yes, we all married someone we didn't want to marry.
Yes.
I was born in the 1930s.
And it all just,
just to see them finally be able to get married,
the speeches are beautiful.
It's very nice. I get... I mean, all blokes catching the bouquet, though married the speeches are beautiful it's very nice
I get
I mean all blokes
catching the bouquet though
that's like
it's much more competitive
but they caught it
on the volley
yeah
they had American football
gear on
they had the face paint on
I'm sitting there
and I'm just getting
I'm not bawling
but I'm getting
like teary
I thought you had
bawling
I'm not bawling
you know
I've got a small chain on.
I'm wearing grills on the bottom row
and you can't see them.
There's no bling on my sparring.
It's just my very reserve.
Even though I think a blinged up sparring
would be the right one to wear at a gay wedding.
I think they like to just call them weddings.
But I was like, gay wedding.
Because it was better than a regular wedding
women's football
is this the ally you want
no never
never once chose me
as an ally
I just fight
for all sides
just hey I fight for
all sides and only because I love
punching guns
I just love fights
whichever side
the joke is on
you will find me
cracking the joke
I'm getting teary
I'm wiping my eyes
but like
it's just
and also
me and Zoe
I'm just passing
whiskey to
her
from my
fucking
hip flask
over a
tit flask
up your chest my tit flask yeah a good... Tit flask.
You tapped your chest.
My tit flask.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, there's no really... You can't put a hip flask on your hip in a kilt, really.
Maybe on your front.
I forgot me fucking sparring.
Oh, no way.
Aye.
But then again, Australians don't know anything about fucking kilts,
so nobody noticed.
Nobody really, you know, cared.
Except for Rhys's dad.
You knew.
I knew.
And Rhys's dad, Nich I knew and Rhys' dad
Nicholson's Scottish name
his dad's Scottish
so they've got a tartan
yes
in the family
yeah
it's Rhys
the greatest
and hackest
Scottish wedding joke
in the entire world
oh really
what do you not know this
oh no
oh man
devastated
I stepped on hack
it's the oldest joke
in Scottish weddings
which is I was talking to my workmates the other day
Telling them that my son or my daughter was getting married
And they said, great, what's the tartan?
I said, I don't know, but probably a white dress
Nice
It's like the Geordie equivalent if I went into a cake shop
And said, is that a donut or a meringue?
That's not just Geordie I've heard that into a cake shop and said Is that a donut or a meringue That's not just Geordie
I've heard that growing up
No you're right it's a donut
Oh am I wrong
A meringue
What's the difference between a buffalo and a bison
Wash your hands in a bison
Can't wash your hands in a buffalo
If anything it just gets more dirty
You're pissed at a buffalo if anything just gets more dirty oh you're pissed
at a buffalo
for that joke
you did the actions
you went in with both hands
I couldn't
that wasn't necessarily
a fist
that could be a dead body
I could be like
swimming
he went in
doing
making shadow puppets
doing the reverse
you know one gay wedding
and you're fisting
a buffalo puppets doing the reverse eh one guy wearing a fist in the buffalo why am I like this
aye well
so
I'm getting weepy
um
watched the whole
ceremony
it's very very
beautiful
and
Zoe comes
Mar
just leans over
at the end of the
ceremony
and I've not been
looking at her
I've just been
enjoying the fucking
ceremony just getting dead teary and at the end of the night and I've not been looking at her I've just been enjoying the fucking ceremony
and at the end of it
Zoe goes, Marge went
you're a little sap aren't you
and I was like
at a gay wedding
surely the only one
that I would be allowed
to get away with.
I had a fucking
such a good time
with Zoe.
She's such a funny woman.
I hung out with her
for the first time
in,
I think it was Melbourne.
It was Melbourne.
Yeah,
I got to chat with her
because she did,
I'd worked with her before,
done Leighton Live.
She's done a,
Dave.
A character,
I call her Dave.
Which is,
yeah.
She's just a blokey bloke right
she pretends to be
like an old
old character
I'm pretty sure
she won the
Melbourne Comedy Awards
in like 2000
I want to say
14 or 15
for it
and then when she took
Dave to Edinburgh
she was definitely
nominated
I'm not sure if she won
the award
look it's great
it's her playing
like an old
bitter middle aged
comedian
who hates the younger generation
and thinks jokes should just be fucking jokes again
and all this stuff. And it's very
very funny.
The type of look that
posts the meme of the
comedian in the glass box at the museum
and go, hey son, back in my day, this was
called a comedian. They got outlawed in
2020. Oh god, that fucking shit
Fucking Joe Rogan
memes
And as well, the bloke who's the comedian
in the artist's sketch, you can
tell he's shite
It's an artist's sketch and just thinking
you can instantly tell, look at him like
It's like that American comic that
never gets to the punchline
that you talk about
you know
and you just go
and they just think
you can get up and talk
and they're gonna laugh
at some point
and you're like
you haven't fucked it in
the amount of fucking
yanks that watch
Bill Hicks
and George Carlin
and Bill Barr
and Dave Chappelle
are like
oh
so you can just go
on stage and talk
and you're like
you are so dumb
you've missed
the entire art form itself
and then because they're so dumb and missed the art form they walk off just going they just can't
handle this shit yeah you can't handle it what that fucking piss piss poor observation you made
um lovely gay wedding uh um you know uh food was excellent Here's the thing that I thought was absolutely fucking classy.
At the end of the wedding night,
they've got food out the whole fucking time.
Booze is free.
Excellent touch.
Food was very good, a lot of it.
And I know it was good because I couldn't eat most of it.
You know it's good food when I'm like,
ew, good with my child's fucking palate.
There's just some really nice sushi there,
and you're just like,
got to cook the fish.
I mean, you do have to cook the fish.
That's standard.
I mean, that's not sush.
We've spoken about it before,
and you've agreed that you are not allowed to call it sush.
Daniel, I give it five years,
and I thought I'd give it another whirl.
It was approximately five years? Daniel I give it five years and I thought I'd give it another whirl.
It was approximately five years ago. I tried it, I thought it might not have been the right time, I'll try it now. You know what I think it might have been five years actually. It was about five
years ago. Well because it was when EverX was. I remember exactly where we were the first time
you said soosh because it upset me so much then. We were in Creef. We were doing previews in Creef.
Yep and I apologised the minute it left my mouth Yeah
And I just thought
You know what
I've borne the wrong decade
A little 2023
I'll wheel out Sush
Didn't like it then either
An hour before the end of the wedding
Five years time
About half nine
Ten

wedding apparently i had no idea this is who people thought i was. I'm one of the first people to get the
meatball sub because I've not been eating any of the
other food that I'm incapable of eating.
Everyone was like, fucking typical
sloths, he's got to get a meatball sub
from round the corner.
He thought he just wheeled one in.
Not one or two people, everyone was like,
which shop did you leave to go round the corner?
Everybody thought you went to Subway in the middle of
a wedding. People thought, no, people didn't even say
they thought I'd gone to get a kebab
I'm not even there, Muck
I'm just a bloke food man
Just some manly fucking bloke food
and then I went, no, they've
organised fucking meatball subs and then
everyone flocked and then I got
this just mental, because I saw so many people

Stuffing these meatball saps inside their pockets,

So, Jean was my plus one.
And I was very upfront with her from day one. I'm like, you are going to hear the most homophobic stuff i have ever said in my life out loud all day as
soon as we release the podcast after the wedding but right now best behavior okay i was like i've
flown 24 hours from the other side of the world i'm allowed to say and also reese is my oldest

Thank you for allowing me
To be Daniel's
Plus one
I'm so very happy
To see you two get married
And I apologise
For all of the homophobic things
Danny will say
Over the course of your day
And then I just signed it with
You fucking fags
Love Nick Cody
It was a very good day And then I just signed it with, you fucking fags. Love Nick Cody.
It was a very good day.
I got really, really drunk.
Not too drunk, not like disgrace myself drunk.
There were people there who, I don't think anyone disgraced themselves,
but like I was noticing people who were more drunk than me.
And that's always a good sign.
You know, when you're drunk and you can point at like four more people who are more drunk than me. Right, okay. And that's always a good sign. You know when you're drunk and you can point at like four more people
who are drunker than you?
Yeah.
You're like, I'm barely noticing.
Yeah, because I was on one at your wedding
and then I bumped into Andrew Maxwell
and I was like, nah, I'm not married.
There's drunk and there's Irish drunk.
The way Rhys and Kyron left their wedding
was the funniest thing I've ever fucking seen.
So they get married at the Enmore Theatre
which is where
I filmed Jigsaw
and where I filmed X.
It's owned by
Century,
the company,
our agents.
And it's in Newtown?
Yes.
They get married on stage
because fucking of course
they did.
If you're marrying
Rhys Nicholson there's only so many options.
It's got to be performative.
Oh man, you know, all the best people were like on Kyron's side,
they were just like normal friends from childhood.
And on the other side, it's fucking Susie Yusuf, Joel Creasy,
hosted by Geraldine Hickey.
Fucking great lineup.
And they did the right thing.
They made the non-coms go first
yeah
made the things
go second
beautiful ceremony
food
everything
at the end
at half past ten
the
recent kind of
gatherers all
into the dance floor
they get everyone
from the bar
in
they're all there
and they walk up
on stage
and they just go
bye bye
they're waving off
we think they're about
to make a fucking speech
and thank us all
for fucking coming
and they just fucked off backstage, bye. They're waving off. We think they're about to make a fucking speech and thank us all for fucking coming.
And they just fucked off backstage.
And we're like, they have like two minutes music still on being like, oh, this is funny.
They're going to come out and like, you know, tell us,
you know, thank us for coming or whatever.
They just left.
Ghosted?
No, no.
Very, the opposite of ghosts.
Man, they gathered us all in a room, waved,
made us think it was like a joke that they were leaving
and then just continued to fuck off.
And that was the end of their presence at the wedding?
Yep.
And we were all like, yeah, okay.
This is five minutes past.
Then like, what should we do now?
The hosts have gone.
Do I have an empty?
My parents left.
Well, they did the right thing.
They did a similar thing.
The next day at Bronte Beach,
they had a thing where I was like,
okay, let's have another drinky sort of day outside.
We saw a whale jump out of the ocean.
Did it?
Aye.
Sweet.
Uh-huh.
That's fun.
It was.
Big fucking whale.
I mean, I didn't see it.
Oh, come on, mate.
You wouldn't just lie to us like that.
But enough people saw that it was definitely there.
And I saw a splash.
Why would you just say that?
I saw a splash.
And that's like, you know, that's like, what, 30% of a whale?
I think saying you've seen a car crash because you've been in a traffic jam.
I have.
I drove past it real slow.
Yeah, just because you see, like, the wreckage of it.
You're like, yeah, saw a car crash.
No, you saw the residue of a car crash.
Aye, that's fair enough.
Aye, because I've actually seen a whale breach.
Didn't see it jump, it breached.
Its tail come up and went back down.
Yeah?
Where?
In Cape Town.
Oh.
What was it doing in the middle of town?
It's on the top of Table Mountain.
Like, what are you doing here?
He's like, what are you doing here?
I was going to say, Jodieodie I just live over there In the water
Where the fuck did you get here
You were like
You were like

Aye

Mammal a fish

Well because here's the stupid thing Once the whale Gill Jockey That's what I call a mammoth fish. Huh? That's what you want? That's what you got.
Well, because here's the stupid thing.
Once the whale... Gill jockey.
Scale wog.
Oh, all right.
Anymore?
How close do we want to start to the line here?
I'm done.
I can assure you, you're fucking done.
Plankton Pucker.
Anyway, you were saying?
The whale jumped out everyone was like
oh my god

so we all stood there
looking
because we're like

Just fucking keep it in
Let them do that
When they come up
I mean how long is it
How long can a whale hold
It's like 30 minutes
Do you reckon them coming up
And doing the whole
It's the same as us
Coming up and going
He died
But they're just
Still a cooler about it
I can't say
It's pretty
Look
People keep saying Like dolphins are really intelligent
and like fucking whales are really intelligent creatures.
You get one of Rubik's Cube, it floats off.
They live in the sea.
They're mammals that live...
How fucking intelligent can you be?
It's like emotional intelligence in that, isn't it, as well?
Social intelligence.
Yeah, like if you fuck a dolphin
And don't call it back
It's sad
Aye
Aye
You can't just
Booty call it
Flip that
Nah
Nah
Like if you kill
Like one of their babies
They grieve for their baby
It's not like
You know
But like you're not
Going to get much in the way
Of academia out of them
No
Nah
Nah
I reckon you could swing
Comfortably
A baby giraffe and the mother giraffe
would just be like
Do you reckon so?
Yeah, it's out at that point, they've done their job innit
Nah, I reckon a giraffe would still give it a bit of a neck swing at you
Get off me kid man
What are you dying your nonce?
What are you fiddling with me fucking giraffe for?
Just because it's taller than me doesn't mean it's not just in fucking first grade
How long can they hold their breath
Did we find that out
Average whale can hold its breath
For 60 minutes
You're not an intelligent
Fucking creature
And how far can it swim
In 60 minutes
Because like it's usually there
Isn't it
Before it reaches
60 minutes yeah
I don't know why
We were sat there for 5 minutes
Being like it'll come up soon
Can't say it's out of here.
It's Swayze.
The ghost.
Oh, I see.
That's what rappers say, I'm Swayze.
Just education for people when rappers like B.I.G.
say, I'm Swayze.
I'm out of here.
I'm ghost.
Not because he's dead.
He was still alive.
I was going to ask a second question.
No, no.
He's a legit ghost now.
But from the film Ghost.
I see.
Is that the one where where is that that fucking scene
where
he makes the
clay pot
clay pot with her
I've never seen that movie
and no part of me
through any of the
cultural references
I've ever seen
make me
I don't think that movie's for me
nah
it's a metaphor for
reach around that you know
aye
aye
so why is he doing it
I'm just making stuff up surely girls don't want a reach around that, you know. Aye. Aye. So why is he doing it?
I'm just making stuff up.
Surely girls don't want a reach around.
Why not?
Never play them like the guitar.
First of all, that'd be a double bass, right?
First of all, if you give it a girl a reach around.
Daniel, I know how a guitar works.
Look, if you give it a girl a reach around, right,
we're going to assume she's got to be sat on you You're standing up
Not lying
And also a lot
Not all
But a lot of girls
Like a little bit of
A little bit of choking
So that you're holding them up there
And then you're
Aye that's double base
If you're giving a girl a reach wrench
That's double base
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye
Aye Aye Aye Aye Aye Aye Aye Aye Aye Aye I don't think I mean I feel
every time I've said I don't think
girls would like this thing
because I think men are more disgusting
than women inherently when it comes to sex
I'm always corrected by a lot of them
being like no I'd be into that
I'm into that what you're talking about we're all different
here's one I was saying that kind of corrected me on
I'm like at a base level
I think like
a double base level
at a base level the reason i think like men are more like gross or more sort of like
feral's the wrong word because that suggests like tearing things apart but just
men will say things like to their to their partner like if they've been out for a fucking
run and like i'd still absolutely go down on you right now like the smell doesn't bother me the
taste doesn't fucking natalie projected her own standards of hygiene onto me all of the time
when it comes to that oh can we pause sorry so like hygiene standards yeah like i and this is
where i'm i'm from Man Cara could have gone
Cara could have done a fucking marathon
And if at the end of it she's like
Do you want to lick my arse
I'd be like more than anything in the world
It's gone out of the flavour
It's like you don't wash a wok
You might as well just give a wok a robot oil on you
I'm like there's no way
There's no way women feel that
Being like hey don't you dare wipe that
Cheese off your knob
Let's just get some fucking
I tell you what though if I meet that girl
These are gonna
You make me want to leave the one I'm with.
It's true, it's what you do.
So, look.
That, like, ruled our house, right?
Sitting watching a film, you're not wearing your jeans on the couch.
Put your trackies on, put your jammies on.
Oh, yeah, of course.
Nobody's sitting on the couch watching a film with jeans on.
Who's ruled?
Yeah.
She's like, I've still got my jeans on
I'll get changed
and she fucking gets changed
in front of us
and I'm like
fucking nice
it's never not good
still fancy the fucker
to me wife
every night
when Cara gets into bed
she takes her shirt off
and her tits come out
and I'm always like
woo
and she's like
there's no way
you still mean that
and I'm like
a hundred percent with every fiber of my...
Put us on a brain scan
and do that.
I mean,
swear to God.
It's never going to...
Doesn't just have to be.
Convenient, that is.
No,
I said,
hey,
and she was like,
ew,
you going to work all day? And I was like, if any of my mates said, hey, and she was like, ew, have you been at work all day?
And I was like,
if any of my mates
said,
ew,
it'd make you seem nice
if my wife took off her jeans
and square go the cunts.
Aye.
I was like,
you've got to be kinder
yourself.
You still look class.
Aye.
You still look unbelievable.
Well, that's what I often do.
Cara's image of herself is very different to my image of her.
How do you think I'm more likely to be correct than she is?
If you are a woman and you are like,
I would absolutely still suck my man's dick after he'd run a marathon,
please do write...
after he'd run a marathon please do
just writing
just because I'd love to know
if you were there
because I'm still adamant
that I'm pretty confident
that I'm right
I'm pretty confident
that like
and this isn't like
oh I love the smell
of a man who's
like sweaty
and I love
because that
you can enjoy
the scent of your man
is one thing even the other way around like if I finished a day's graft and I just because you can enjoy the scent of your man is one thing
even the other way around
like if I finish
the day's graft
and I just like
whip my top off
and I'm just rippling
with sweat and all that
and I crack up my diet coke
and I'm just there like
and she's like
nice
I'll be like
aye
absolutely
that's what I'm doing it for
couldn't have been in any room of news
this is for you
this is what I'm putting on the show
I brought the diet coke
from the kitchen
I think I'm going to get out I brought the diet quote From the kitchen I think I've been at the gym
All the time for fuck all
This is for you
So
What got onto that?
Hygiene
Yeah
Doesn't matter does it?
No
No
What have you been up to? I've been With hygiene. Yeah, it doesn't matter, does it? No, no.
What have you been up to?
I've been being an ally on this side of the globe and the other.
I have been kind of like adding balance.
Daniel, I talked about this briefly with Cullen,
but I didn't unpack it.
I helped Natalie run a craft market.
Oh, yeah, I saw this.
Yeah.
She had people that... Because she's been working with a lot of local businesses
that make dog toys and make dog treats
and harnesses and leads and that.
And just a few of them were suggesting
that she'd have a perfect space for an indoor market so share ended up putting like 17 stalls on and like everybody
just kind of advertises it to their own communities and we advertised it i was like loads of the
customers from the dog park came a few people that had never even heard of the dog park came in and
like enjoyed that it was there and took flyers and uh it was just the most wholesome day i've ever
seen i've i loved it i was like that's because that's not my world you know how knitting wasn't our world but we stepped into the knitting world and found the most wholesome day I've ever seen. I loved it. Aye. I was like, that's because that's not my world. You know how knitting wasn't our world,
but we stepped into the knitting world
and found the most wholesome community.
It's kind of like that.
It's like an extension of that.
Like everybody's just got their own, like,
their own creative pursuits.
Aye.
And they're making a bit of money off it.
And the people that came in were like chuffed that it was on.
They were like, thanks for putting this on.
Was it a success?
Uh-huh.
Aye.
Yeah, it was it was like
really busy
a few people made like
quite a lot of profit over
from the stalls
so like
I feel like
a lot
I don't know how every stall does it
I can't speak for everybody
but some of them were like
absolutely thriving
the last time they were selling cakes
everybody that came in
left with cakes
like she absolutely
cleaned up in there
like it was class
and
when is the
next
Duggan Bowen
XX Bully
day
yeah
it's more for bookies
that day
it's better
it's more for gambling
it's like kind of
it's kind of
underground
like you'll find out
like on the day
I can't announce it now
we'll get shut down
yeah yeah yeah.
But we're going to be dancing to Natalie.
Listen to this.
Listen to Alice Scheidt.
I've said it before.
Alice Scheidt, I've said it.
She's like, mate,
different pretend that me.
Wholesome dog company is going to be.
But aye, we're fighting dogs.
Aye.
If you don't have a chew toy available for your dog
We'll just bring a smaller dog
Piggy
I've not been keeping too much up
With the XXL bully
Dog thing
The only thing I have seen
Was there was
A like protest of all the
XXL bully owners
For those internationals that don't know Bulldogs might be getting banned a like protest of all the XXL bully owners bulldogs for those
internationals
that don't know
bulldogs might be
getting banned
in the UK
a very specific
massive breed of
bulldogs might be
getting banned
in the UK
because they're
dangerous and
they're only bred
for murder
and everyone
even though
and there's people
like screaming
no just go
there's no such
thing as a bad
dog there's only
bad owners
yeah yeah
but it seems to
attract the bad
owners
yeah
like it seems to
be like somebody
that wants a dog as a weapon seems to be getting that dog yeah it's lots it's lots of
bald drug dealers and like the video i saw i'm like i'm i'm fully of the thing if there is no
bad dogs that are only bad owners i have every single person at this thing i was like not only
do you not get a bulldog you don't get a chihuahua,
you don't get a fucking poodle.
You are just, if this is how you are as a person.
Have you ever had just a small dog just tell you off or nip you or whatever?
My brother had a little chihuahua,
and it was like a rescue.
I didn't think it was a rescue.
I don't know.
It had anxiety issues, and it didn't like being petted.
And I struck the one time, and I was like, he's warning and the dog's growling like proper heckles up because I'm petting the dog and then like it went for us I got away but I could have been bitten by that little dog if that's a big fuck off dog that's different that you can get away with like a little snap from a little dog you're not a little snap from a big dog you have to You're not getting a little snap from a big dog.
You have to have that trained so well.
The only... Never, never, ever once mouth.
The only fucking place I've ever seen fucking bulldogs
is in fucking Fife,
and they've always been owned by the scummiest fucking cunts
I've ever seen in my fucking life.
I remember being like 15 or 16 years old
down Leven fucking beach,
and me and my friends,
it's one of the very rare sunny days in fucking
Fife
we're on the beach
playing with a fucking ball
and this fucking bulldog
off the lead
comes over
and tears our ball apart
and these two
disgusting chaps
who from the bottom of my heart
I hope are dead
from a heroin overdose
by now
which they probably are
we're like
well that's what you fucking get
for teasing him
and winding up by kicking a ball
and we're like
on a beach
aye
like what are you fucking
talking like I have
if you're a bulldog owner and you disagree
with me feel free to send it in but
I
have zero sympathy for
any of the people I've seen so far
and I'm happy to be corrected
but at the moment
I hope you lose your dogs
there is that thing where the people who are just, like,
really well-trained and a good dog who are getting caught in the crossfire
with these dickheads.
Very unfair, yeah.
It's really unfair.
What's going to happen to their dog?
Because you've got to look at it like that.
Like, you know, if all of a sudden there was just, like,
for whatever reason, Cavapoo started fucking going for every cunt,
all the babies, and they're just blanket-bound cavapoos.
Like, Peggy's my family member.
I've got to fucking say goodbye to Peggy.
What do I hand her over?
Do I ship her out?
Do I find her a home in a country where she's allowed?
Does she get put down when she's perfectly healthy
and well-behaved?
That's a good point.
Like, there's people out there
whose dogs, like, might just be compromised.
Their family members are going to be compromised
because some fucking stupid nerd in Fife
is not controlling their dog.
Yeah, but also that's the fucking gun control debate.
Like, if there are bad bastards out there
who cannot go a fucking day
without shooting other people in the fucking head.
So we need a good guy with an XL bully.
We need a good guy with an XL bully.
Yeah.
Okay, and the teachers have to have excel bullies yes
yeah yeah yeah at the front of the fucking classroom the police definitely need excel
bullies yeah yeah right so so what we need is more excel bullies across the board it's like
jim jeffries had a bit where he was like we have as a society we have to go as fast as our slowest
member in order to fucking you know progress and get better and you know it's
man you know what you've been a very good point there i imagine the people that have gone out
there and rescued bullies and trained them to be better or have had bullies since birth and because
you're a careful and considerate and loving dog owner you probably do have a dog that's really
well fucking trained i'm sorry you're caught in the crossfire of it but they're the
AR-15 of dogs.
You're carrying a weapon.
We have to put a ban on fucking
the smaller bears.
Aye.
That's a tough one. And you know what? Fair enough.
If you want to come for the Maine Coons
take them. Take the Maine Coons.
Aye.
Because they're vicious cats.
They're not vicious cats.
They're just terrorists in their thickest pig shit.
We found, this is a slight pivot, but I mean, it's a massive pivot.
But we found a specialist on the subject of Edinburgh Airport.
That's willing to come on the podcast.
And he'll be listening to the podcast right now, actually.
He's a pilot.
Oh. So there's a pilot. Oh.
So there's a pilot
that wants to give
with the inside scoop.
Oh,
and did he,
was there any inclination
of whether he thought
I was being harsh?
Nah,
he's on side
and he can't wait
for the expose.
Oh.
Oh,
man,
because I got in
fucking yesterday
and like,
I,
poor Cara,
had to deal with me for an hour just fucking texting her being like,
it's been an hour.
It's been an hour.
And they were like,
and Edinburgh Airport does this thing
where they're like,
baggage on its way
and it's not on its way.
They just know that after 20 minutes
of waiting for a bag,
people are getting annoyed
and instead of doing their jobs,
they can just flick a switch
that lets people know it's on the way and they're still doing
fuck all and turn the belt on
now it comes on
they're just phases of like just give them
something so yeah
there's a pilot that wants to come on
fuck yeah well we'll do that when we're in the new studio
and then we'll get it done
we'll get set up in there and then as soon as we've got
like the
guest coach that is wonderful wonderful fucking and then we'll get it done. I was like, we'll get set up in there and then as soon as we've got like the, Oh man,
I would love,
as soon as we've got the guest coach,
we'll get it on.
That is wonderful,
wonderful fucking news.
Uh-huh.
So if there's any XL body owners,
Yeah.
who've actually like fucking got a fight on their hands
because you're about to lose a family member
because of some dickheads,
like fucking we'll,
Aye, let us know.
Aye, let us know.
Look,
I am always,
I'm not always happy to be
proven wrong but in fact i don't think i've ever been happy to be wrong but later on after being
proven wrong i'm happy we will take we will take the things you said when you were right and use
them as what own stuff yeah so in the future i'll be right because i'll have your opinion and we'll
forget that any of it happened yeah yeah so if you want to come on and correct us
By all means fucking write in and let us know
Because
We accept that we are often
If not
I don't think we're mostly wrong
I think if we ever just get like a fucking passionate one-sided opinion
Where we're just echo-chained by each other
We should give them a right to reply
Yeah yeah yeah
So if you think
no no no no no no if you think russell brandt is innocent i've no doubt that two years ago
you believed in q anon what's this fucking panorama one Going to be on BBC You've got the Inside scoop on that You grass There's a panorama
Panorama coming out
Next week
Is there
Aye
Panorama's the BBC
Version of
Version of dispatchers
And they've went like
Fucking
Not telling you
Until it comes out
Well look
Here's the fucking thing
There's
You know
There's
There's other people on
In the entertainment industry
Who we know The fucking names of.
Everyone knows the fucking names of them.
And they've got to come out until they're dead.
I would be very, very shocked if BBC had the fucking balls
to go after the person.
I think it would be considering they absolutely...
We're going to cut this.
Elliot Steele.
It's Elliot Steele.
Oh, that'll be interesting. Aye. sell it still oh
oh that'll be interesting
aye
huh
there's like already like rumours and
speculation about who it is
and hey and that's always fun
and always very healthy to the
conversation and good
because like that's when like
the smoke around other small fires
Oh, yeah, that's like coming up good. Is it definitely like no, but you know, tell me more. Uh-huh
also like the fucking there the the
the sweat that cup pours off of people and it's like
people see a panorama or doing an expose and a comedian and people like and
Do we know who it is?
Like, and for what reasons?
I tell you what,
when Russell Brand released a video
getting ahead of the documentary
saying that these wild accusations
were going to come out and stuff,
like, I was like,
it would be so funny if it wasn't him.
If it was just someone else
who's just saying,
eh, no, it's nothing.
Nothing at all. I was like, what? wasn't him if it was just someone else he was just there going eh no it's nothing nothing
I saw
there's going
to be a
panorama
is it this
weekend
I'm not
entirely sure
when it's on
but
that can do
as a wee
google math
you
when panorama
is on
and also
this
we'll delete
this out if it
doesn't happen,
but it's currently happening.
The BBC interviewed Natalie in the dog park.
BBC Scotland come into the dog park
because they wanted to do a piece about...
Matt, if that's the panorama.
Woman who owns dog park also married to guy
who continuously makes jokes about dog fighting in the dog park.
Is it true
hiding in plain sight
now so
it's going out
on Friday
at half past six
on BBC Scotland
so here's the
interesting
so if it hasn't
went out
because like
Natalie just replied
to them
let's hope
that some
politician
doesn't disgrace
themselves
and take over
the news
and push my
news story
out the window
and they just
laughed and replied
what's the chance
that that'll happen
politicians never
fuck up
so there is
that chance
that like
even though it's
recorded and it's
in the can
it's not going
to go out
there's still
the chance
it'll get bumped
so like if that does happen I'll delete this bit.
If that doesn't happen and you're hearing this,
then go on iPlayer, BBC Scotland.
I should find you the name of the show,
but whatever, it's a tap by six on a Friday.
I think it's the news.
9pm on Monday.
9pm on Monday.
Which means, so there's really,
I don't know if this law exists all around the world
or whether it is a British law, but it is the law of right to reply, which is if you are doing a documentary about something or even with a fucking article or whatever, talking about someone, the person you are writing or doing anything about has a right to reply.
That's how Russell Brown was aware that the documentary was coming out days before because they gave him the
opportunity to speak about it.
So, if it's coming out on Monday,
I think, I think the rule is
it's got to be like three days before maybe.
I don't know.
See who starts sweating on Friday.
So anyway, there's got to be some allegations
coming out of this.
Look, even if
they are true.
Even if they are true Even if they are true Whoops
I don't know what more you want from me
Whoopsie daisy
Booty wooty
Also, I'm very aware people
Want us to talk about the Brandt documentary
More at one point in the future I will talk about it brand documentary more at one point in the future i will
talk about it in much more detail now is not the time i do not feel i don't want to myself talk
about it i don't feel comfortable talking about it now i still have a lot of uh unprocessed emotions
about what has happened since uh and and you know hey the doors opened and
there's been
female comedians
who are in the
whatsapp groups
and stuff
talking about
the whatsapp groups
and that's
whose time it is
to talk
100%
you know what I mean
listen
this is on mainstream
not on
like a fucking
back channel podcast
like I was
this is on mainstream
like they're talking now
listen to them
aye
and
and
and ignore all the
homophobia and misogyny at the start of this podcast, would you?
Aye.
We could not put it out
but we're still going to. Yeah, before we put this out
we actually said it to Rhys and Kyra and three days ago
we gave them the right to reply.
So I've been doing the craft market. I've been doing the craft market
I've been
Have I seen you since I got back from Milan?
I have haven't I?
Yes
Yeah yeah yeah
And also you've been doing a lot of work
On the studio
The studio's nearly ready
We're going to actually move in
It's ready to move in now
Apart from a couple of technical things
I need a different camera lens.
I am also.
I don't want to date until it's fully ready.
Yes.
We could have done this one in there.
We've got enough tech in there now,
but I'd rather just go full ready.
And to long-term listeners of this podcast,
this is the thing that we've been promising you for ages,
where we're finally putting all of the money into it
to making it better. And we're going to try and increase the quality of this
podcast not just in sense of how it looks but also with like the online clips and also with the
content you and i are going to do stuff to sort of try and make it just a bit more accessible i'm
we're both very aware that when we're drunk and stoned that our accents get in the way
of our Indian
listenerships, our European listenerships
Anyway, I would say the Newcastle
No, for some reason Aussies
never, the Aussies are the only
fucking nation in the world apart from Scotland
and England. Do not give a
shit about either of our accents
and also just to give the
Americans perspectives,
Indians complain fucking less than you do.
And it's because Indians try to look,
I don't know why I'm yelling at you,
you listen to the podcast if you're American,
you're not part of the problem.
We will be.
We'll also be getting,
because this is the thing with the guests we've had in,
because the little camera angle that you say
has been the only clean
part of the studio and the rest of it's been like a gym and a crack den and all that stuff
so we've only invited our friends who we can face the shame with yeah so all my guests that have
come in have been like good friends of ours but there was uh i can't remember who was there's a
comedian passed through town i was like grab them while they're here was it mark normand
uh mark normand uh oh burbiggs was here yeah big big yes i i never met
babiglia and i was like well if you're chatting to him get him on the pod he was like well can
i invite him yeah like wait until the studio's nice yeah so like now that it's nice when like
fucking stanhope travels through we can ask him like we're gonna we're gonna we can we can quite
confidently ask him to come around and step into gonna we can we can quite confidently ask him
to come around and step into a studio yeah but also i would say like i think the tone of no i
don't think the tone of the podcast will change i just think with the step up in quality we are
both going to endeavor to be sort of more understandable and sort of i think we might
lose some of the more drunker episodes we might lose some of the more drunker episodes, we might lose some of the ones where it's just us ranting about shit
I'll just label them as that so you know what you're
getting. Aye, but we're trying to, look
youse have been here through everything
so we're in no danger of losing any of you
fucking psychopaths, but we're trying to
bring in more, so don't see it as
fucking pandering and don't see it
as selling out, right, it is
it is that
but don't see it as that out, right? It is. It is that.
But don't see it as that.
Just ignore the fact that it is that.
I've been working on something which will hopefully be wrapped up in the next...
I'm excited for that as well.
We're clickbaiting you here,
but we have to because we can't mention it yet.
Yeah, yeah.
And then also for the first episodes back on,
I've got...
for the fucking rebrand
because I think it will be semi-rebrand.
I think it will still be
Sloss and Humphries on the road.
Yeah, uh-huh.
And we'll have to keep the same logo
because there's a patron in Australia
who's got it tattooed on the flesh.
How funny would it be to just change the logo?
But if we ever do change the logo,
we'll pay for your new tattoo.
If you'd like,
just every time we rebrand, you can just add it on your arm i think isn't it yeah i'm not sure um i remember i came up after
the live podcast well with ari yeah and she came and showed well no she'd also been in she was
also at the uh other one the the original melbourne live podcast with Bart and Nick Cody upstairs at the Expo.
So, yeah, at the moment, it's lost and obvious on the road.
We're still having the same logo and stuff,
but we've just got like a whole new setup and we're going to stop numbering the episodes.
So you don't feel like you have to catch up on fucking 7,000 episodes
to be up to speed.
We'll just title them.
And hopefully this becomes a podcast that you are less ashamed to recommend to your friends one that you're not really embarrassed
to listen to and then also like encourage those of you are not patreons to come and be patreons
because the quality is going to go up we're going to start doing the fucking you know the american
thing the have a word thing of you know having Patreon specials and stuff and just make sure that we're increasing the quality of this
as we go on
because after,
what,
seven,
eight years of this fucking shit,
you deserve it.
The world changed around we.
You know,
we were just peddling away
with a little podcast here,
just not even making money off it,
just doing it for the sport.
Yeah.
And then everybody just changed the game
and just made we look like trash.
One of the other things is Matthew.
Thank them.
One of Matthew's duty is going to be
to keep a tally or a track
of what stories we've told on the podcast.
And if we ever go to tell them again,
just be like, they know.
They know.
They are aware.
It's been done.
It's been done.
We'll put them out as clips.
Also, I was chatting to Matthew about this on the drive here.
We're going to start a Discord so the patrons can get a,
they can have a community and we can hear what they're saying.
We'll have a complaints department that we're going to laugh at.
Oh, great.
We'll let them have a right to reply.
They can tell us when we need to finish a story.
They can tell us when we've fucked something up.
Good.
Or we've made a mistake
in what we're talking about
we're gonna give
a platform
a forum
like
for them to talk
and we can read shit out
if we have to
we can reply to it
because I'm gonna be honest
the amount of times in the past
where we've set up
the fucking
podcast email
and been like
well why don't you write us
with your queries
nobody does
because like
fair enough
none of you
want to talk to us
really
hopefully that changes we did get a couple when we were asking for people that wanted that relationship advice But nobody does because, fair enough, none of you want to talk to us really.
Hopefully that changes.
We did get a couple when we were asking for people that wanted relationship advice.
A bunch of them came in.
We unpacked a few of them.
We did them for a while.
But we didn't keep pushing that medium.
But yeah, we'll figure out Discord.
Matthew's on it.
But we're going to have that sorted.
Because I have no idea how Discord works
I have
I'm a bit of a boomer
when it comes to Discord
I tried it with
Twitch
and I was so glad
that they all operated
and I could dive in
because I
could see the channels
like and I could go in
and see the chats
but like I didn't
I don't know what
every button is
no
no
that's all this
but we'll figure it out
it's like it's like Reddit I think but with talking to each other No. There you go, that's all this. But we'll figure it out.
It's like Reddit, I think, but with talking to each other.
It's a closed forum, Reddit.
Is it?
Yeah.
Yeah?
All right, so we'll get you all involved in that.
And if you listen to this, because this is a public episode,
if you listen to this on any of the public channels,
come on and subscribe, man.
Come on, come and subscribe to Patreon.
Get your extra episode,
get your early access on these ones.
And it's about to get good.
It's about to get better.
And if you join now,
that'll be the first time you've heard it and it will be true
and you'll not know
what big fucking liars we've been for seven years.
And there is actually an archive of fucking,
even though they're like amateur shot,
there's some fucking really funny episodes out there.
And I think that could be one of the channels on the Discord
as people recommending which episodes.
If you're new to the podcast,
there's 300 episodes in the back catalogue.
Amsterdam one.
I can't listen to Amsterdam one.
Come back with your hair out, stood up,
and your eyes peeled back like fucking you've got PTSD
like you've been
a norm
back when we
had the decency
to end a podcast
45 minutes in
because we knew
we were too fucked
as opposed to
letting it run
for 90 minutes
at least we have
a spliff break
and come back
fun
so there's that there's that there's also like in the back catalogue you've got come back fun so
there's that
there's also
like in the back
catalogue
you've got
my best man speech
at your wedding
and the roast
of Daniel Sloss
there's a couple
of little special
features in there
if you sign up now
you can go and get them
also if you don't
mind
really unsubtle
thinly failed racism
I think we might be
putting up my best man
speech
I'm happy for it
I'll need to re-watch it again
because
there's a
my memory of it is getting booed
three times. It's not as bad as you think
the racism. No
but it is. It is racism
yeah
yeah it's only racist because he The racism. No. But it is. It is racism. Yeah.
Duh.
It's only racist because he married one of them.
Ah.
She was gay.
I like how he says was as if he cured her.
Not cured.
Not cured.
Not cured.
Not cured.
They're not hams.
Cut.
