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.
Aww, muggles.
Accidental rim job in the park.
Kiss, kiss, kiss.
Or might just be cynical.
Just muggled it up on fuckin' Mugglepedia.
Where have you been since 9-11?
You know what Mary Poppins used to say?
Spoonful of muggins makes the cream go down.
I'm really running out of videos, boys.
I am here with Elliot.
Elliot's back in the room.
Hello.
And he's been co-hosting in the absence of cream.
And we have got with us a very special guest
Mark Nelson
not Gareth Waugh
doing the impression
of Mark Nelson
but the actual Mark Nelson
you've been on this podcast
before but only
through the medium
of G-Tip
yep
G-Tip does a great
impression of me
he does
it's accurate
and not quite as good
as me
can you do a great
impression of G-Tip
yep
but only in
sort of the medium of rap
i buy a hundred roses and buy a hundred more just to see your face i'd buy a hundred more
if i was sleazy would you say more that's how it goes isn't it Look it up it's on Soundcloud It's kind of like It's not as bad as
That thing that Tom did
That Drake's on a train thing
I've been watching that all week
So to anyone listening to this podcast for the first time
We've had previous guests on
Gareth Waugh who turned out
He's a ginger kid that works at Samsung
And he had an aspiring rap career when he was 16
I want that to be his bio For the fringe this year Samsung and he had an aspiring rap career when he was 16.
I want that to be his bio for the Fringe this year.
Ginger Keane works at that.
I have an aspiring rap career.
315 Gilded Balloon.
That's what he's doing a show about.
Is he?
About his rap songs.
Wow.
It's going to be funny. Is he writing any new material?
Fuck, no. Some new rhymes. It's going to be funny is he writing any new material fuck no he doesn't
like some new rhymes
some new rhymes
it's going to be worth it
for the live performance
of O Girl
yeah
so I don't know
if anybody hasn't heard it
how they'll be able
to find this
there's an episode
I think
an early episode
with Daniel NG
tipping it
I'll fucking
I'll try and repost it
but Thomas Horton
we discussed this last week
made the
oh did you
alright made the not snakes on a plane
drakes on a train
it's the worst thing ever made
by far and away the worst thing ever made
you know what, I'm surprised
do you remember
when we first showed you that Mark
and Thomas in the room and you looked at him and went
when you were photoshopping Drake's face
onto a train, did you not catch
a reflection of yourself
and think,
my dad's the general?
His dad is actually
the general of the fucking military,
not the army.
He was the head of the army
for a bit
and then he become
the person,
the head of the army,
the head of the RF,
the head of the Navy,
he was the head honcho,
he was the second in command
of the Queen and then, we love you dearly, the head of the RF, the head of the Navy, Ansa Dew. He was the head hunter. He was the second in command of the Queen.
And then, we love you dearly, Tom, if you're listening.
His dad's a lord now.
His dad's the constable of the Tower.
And by his dad being a lord, he lives at the Tower of London.
By his dad being a lord, Tom has got the title,
the Honourable Thomas Horton, right?
He's decorated via his dad.
His dad is so successful, he has a title.
Photoshopped Drake's face
on the Thomas the Tank Engine.
I reckon Tom's dad cries
about three times a day.
Just thinking about Tom.
Pretending to be a cat.
No, he can't even shed a tear
over all the kids he killed in Syria
with a drone strike.
He's more proud of those Syrian kids
than he is his own
it's going to be one of those podcasts
but I love that it's got like
it's creeping up to 2000 hits
which is like
it's a decent amount of hits right
but
it should have went one or two ways, right?
If you spend that much time making a video, right?
You want it to go and fucking, it gets something.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
He spent a lot, he wrote the song.
Mm-hmm.
He hired the studio.
Mm-hmm.
He autotuned himself.
Yeah, so he did.
He fucking learned the names.
Fucking autotuned himself.
He learned the names from everyone from Toys R Us and Tank Engine.
Either that or he had them already in memory
and he's already done a lifetime's worth of research.
He knew.
Fat controller.
Then you put together
the animation of it. You uploaded it.
It should have gotten some hits.
We've tagged in a thousand people.
It's got a thousand hits.
I know.
Everyone's watching it twice. I watched it a hundred Yeah. It's got a fusing hit. I know, I know. Everyone's watching it twice.
I watched it a hundred times.
It's fascinating
because I just want to know
what was the mindset?
Like, when he was making that,
was he there going,
oh, this is my Mona Lisa?
This is taking me to the big leagues.
Maybe he's like Van Gogh
and we just don't appreciate the artwork now
and what do you think it's gonna it's gonna mature in a few thousand years time yeah
when there's like aliens on the planet and stuff and we're communicating with them and we're
showing them our greatest bits of art in it and we'll have like a few of the other like renaissance
people um a couple of coliseums and that and then right you're both laughing
because I'm saying
dumb shit
but hear me out
but then we'll
also have
Thomas's
a couple of
coliseums
and shit
you'll have seen
the listeners
in the podcast
but I shushed
Mark there
because I knew
that was one of
the Elliot rants
that you need
rescuing from
he's done so many
Mark
where he'll just
go off on one
and I'll just see him get lost I'll see the look in his eyes he doesn't know where he's going so many Mark where he'll just go off on one and I'll just see him
get lost
I'll see the look
in his eyes
he doesn't know
where he's going
himself
and I know
I can throw him
a lifeline
and chip in
and try and fuel
the bitch
aye but no
it's so much fun
so much fun
just letting him
beat around
what's wrong
with a couple
of Colosseums
back to the point
of
I don't actually
know
it was a couple
of Colosseums and shit it was this in the post dystopian alien know it was it was a couple of car seams and shit
it was this in the
post-disotopian alien
invaded earth
and there's a couple
of coliseums
is that where you
were going with it then
and then they
discover the artefact
of the
do you know where
you were going
yeah yeah yeah
I was saying right
so aliens have
got in contact with us
and we're like
alright what we got
to show them
they found Elon Musk's
Tesla car
they're like
rah what else you got
what else is going on down there sending cars into space yeah we've got your show them. They found Elon Musk's Tesla car. They're like, rah, what else you got?
What else is going on down there?
Sending cars into space.
Yeah, we've got your cars.
Where's your art?
Yeah, what's going on?
Right, there's the Colosseum.
There's, you know,
the Sistine Chapel.
You know, Rome's got a lot.
But what it hasn't got is Drake on a train.
No, it certainly does not.
What's the deal with,
see that car that's gone in?
What's the deal?
Is that just going
to float around
space for the rest
of
he's posturing
a little bit
isn't he
the rest of
time
he's just
going to
show it off
isn't he
aye
he's a bit
like he
it costs like
half a billion
apparently
but he's worth
like 25 billion
he could have
he could have
uplifted a
community
exactly
I know
he could have
raised the
country
yeah
yeah
yeah
I know
like Scotland
aye
aye aye he was just erase the country out of us, don't he? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I know, I know. Like Scotland. Aye, yeah.
Aye, yeah.
The red Scotland of poverty.
He looked at his options.
You know, like sometimes when you fucking,
you've got a little bit
of disposable income
and you're like wondering
what to do with it
and you're like,
oh, you know what,
I'd like a new pair of trainers
but I should probably
put a bit aside for the wedding
and you're starting like
way up on a day
where you have money.
He's done that on a level
where you're like,
I could feed a country
or I could just fucking, I'm just going gonna kind of put one of your cars in the space
he probably he probably shits all over car companies who have just like sponsored a football
team in it he's just like my motor's in space yeah exactly yeah yeah yeah
so he's a he's a fucking powerhouse that dude you know I hadn't
heard of him
until this year
I didn't know
I didn't know
anything about him
I've never even
heard of his cars
and then my dad
started showing us
some videos
my dad
my dad shows his
YouTube videos
that are like
9 minutes long
he'll stand there
with his phone
and press play
right
and I'll touch the
screen and it'll have
like fucking
7 and a half minutes
left
I've watched 2 and a
half minutes already
right
have I discussed
this already?
You certainly told me about it.
Because it's been on my mind,
like, you can't do that to someone.
No.
You can't.
YouTube video, I think,
has got to be, like,
three minutes max.
And even then,
it has to be gripping.
It has to be, like,
that's max, isn't it?
Like, 90 seconds is probably appropriate.
But you know what?
If you're going to, like,
crouch down and show someone
a YouTube video,
30 seconds is probably a shout
aye
aye
there's different levels
of what's appropriate
but 9 minutes
is like
you would never put on
a Netflix episode
without discussing
what you were going to watch
would you
you'd never go
alright well we're going to watch
we'll watch Rick and Morty
we've only got 20 minutes
we'll watch Rick and Morty
but you discuss it
you put it on
you wouldn't just go
what's he doing
aye
watch this
aye now he doesn't listen to the podcast and I throw him under the bus all the time but 9 minute videos you'd put it on you wouldn't just go what's he doing yeah yeah yeah watch this aye
now I know
I listen to the podcast
and I throw him under the bus
all the time
but nine minute videos
kept following him
you throw him under the bus
at the end of every podcast
no you do
oh yeah
sorry Kev
that's what pisses me off
about young people
what
that lack of attention span
what do you mean
lack of attention span
the only 30 seconds
that you can watch
that's the only thing
You would
Yeah but that's because
Man we've got shit to do
What shit have you got to do
Fuck all
Watch more videos
Right
Like
I'm sorry
You're going to come on
The podcast
And I knew you were
Going to do something
About this
You were going to come on
And you were instantly
Going to be like
Oh the fucking millennials
This that and the other
Aye and now he's
Doing a deal with it
Right yeah
But what's so good about the 90s then?
Go on.
What's so good about the 90s?
What's so good about the 90s?
Every generation just hates the younger generation because they're young.
Like, that's the youth.
No, not true.
Why do you hate our generation then?
Mainly because of you.
The poster boy for millennials
I just don't
I don't think you're
I don't think you do anything
well that's because we've only just
turned 21 man
most of us are just getting out of uni
your generation has only just put a car
in space in the 60s they put a fucking man
on the moon
I should have to think what your generation are going to do just put a car in space. In the 60s, they put a fucking man on the moon.
I should have to think what your
generation are going to do
when you get your grip
on space travel.
Put a fidget spinner
in space.
Put a meme
on the surface of Mars.
What do you want to be
when you grow up?
You.
God.
Lower your expectations
I'm dying
Yeah because you were saying there about
You're just hating on the youth and stuff like that
But I think you can hate on a generation
Without them being necessarily below you
I started hating on the elderly
When the good elderly passed on.
You know, when the war veteran elderly, they were belted, man.
You wouldn't have met these cunts.
The fucking war veteran elderly was a tits, man.
Like, fucking, and they had stories that we couldn't even fucking think about matching.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Because how could we?
They went to war and shit, right?
I used to love hanging out with these people.
And they got respect that was just given to
them because
they oozed it
right but then
you get these
baby boomers
is that the
generation
yeah
who filled
their shoes
and demanded
the same
respect that
their elders
got
and you're just
there going
nah don't
you're shitting
me for
standing on
your grass
and shit
we've not
lived through
anything
oh the
Falklands
oh Christ
oh God
what a time
it's not
do you remember the Gulf War
it was so hard
we had to switch the sky
that's what
that's what
spelt
Arab people
your age
in Croatia
when they're
European
they're slightly
older than you
you're similar
age to me
but like
the guys that are
in their
forties and stuff
they've been
through shit
so they lived
through like
Jesus
in the 90s
bloody hell
so when the guy
that's fucking
produces our gigs
has been to war
Jesus
fucking remarkable
it's a great crackdown
he's getting his kills
he's fucking
doing it
but I can see
in his eyes
I can see in his eyes
that he has
he's got that
cold death stare
like this
he's definitely
winged one or two
people
because that wasn't a straight no
did you ever ask your grandad
if he'd killed someone
now my grandad had a really interesting job during the war
but he wasn't on the front line
this is what my grandad did
he got in the aeroplane
called the fairy battle
which was a fucking heavy beast,
that would release a target behind, and the spitfires would come in
and fire the fucking painted bullets at the target.
And my grandad would winch it in and count the score and give the pilots the scores back.
So my grandad was on home soil the whole time, but his job was dangerous as fuck, man.
He would be in there.
There was one time where he was in the aeroplane in the back,
and the target just fucking snapped off, and the aeroplane in the back in the target
just fucking snapped off
and the cable
just come fucking
lashing in
and you just had to
curl up in a bar
in the corner
as the cable
just fucking whipped around
cracking off the metal
of the thing
Jesus
you fucking
you could have just
been ripped to shreds
off that
and there was another one
where the undercarriage
wouldn't have gone down
and they had to belly land
it on a field and shit
it's wrote a book
about it
it's actually
you can get it
on the kindle
we've got it
on his book
but I haven't plugged it
because I want to go through
and correct all the theirs
he's got all his theirs wrong
yeah
he's there
there and there
he's got IE
rather than
Jesus
so I want to go in
and just
not that I'd be the best person
to spell check
I'd probably get Natalie
to run it through
but it's great it's called go on and get not that I'd be the best person to spell check I'd probably get Natalie to run it through but it's great
it's called
go on and get it
listen to this
it's Juggling with Jesus
for a Bob a Day
that's what he's called it
it's just
a little memoirs
from his
oh cool
like my grandad
was in the D-Day Landings
but I mean
he's not as much
of a hero as your
grandad
giving the scores
to the family
kicking scores
that's where the real war a hero as your grandad giving the scores to the family kicking scores pinball reference
that's where the
real war was won
I heard your
grandad was scared
of flying
don't worry
I'll get on the
boat
he wasn't in
the D-Day
I don't even know
what the fuck he did
I was like
how come you got
his PTSD
is it contagious
oh man
was your grandad
in the war
no I
both of them
were in the war
I think my grandad
fought in Africa
the whole time
he was like a driver
for generals
and shit
yeah
drove jeeps
so yeah
both our granddads
were very much
on the admin side of
with you being a similar age to me
did you fucking
shit your pants
when the towers got hit
and you were like
21 years old
I would have been 18
and we were in that
draft age
ah
it just felt like
like we'd get drafted up
to fight
we were like
did it not cross your mind
I was watching that
I actually worked
I worked at the airport
at the time
at Newcastle Airport
and it was the fucking
one of the service engineers
fucking ran through
because I was a cleaner
ran through the
cleaning office
and dragged everyone
through to watch the telly
I thought you were
just about to say
I got a big job for you
I couldn't watch this
and we were watching
the towers hit
and I was just
fucking hands on my head
because the second one
happened on like live didn't it the first one hit everyone comes through this and they were watching the towers hit and I was just fucking hands on my head right because the second one happened on like
live didn't it
the first one hit
like everyone comes
through this
and then the second one hit
and I was there like
fuck I'm going to war
like it was the only thing
on my mind
Jesus
I was just like
oh this is fucking my life
do you know what's really weird
I don't remember 9-11
like I don't
yeah
I don't remember it
it's not an alibi though my eh
my dad still goes on
my dad's convinced
me and my pals were watching a film
around my house
when the attack happened and initially he thought it was just an accident
my dad still is convinced
that he heard in the news that there was another one
headed towards the White House
and then it was just never mentioned again.
And I'm like, Dad, you're literally the only person
that goes on about this.
Like, there are no recordings.
There's no news story.
There was one heading towards the White House, though, wasn't there?
I'll get stoned and watch a lot of conspiracy videos.
Yeah.
That's my area of expertise.
Because a guy on YouTube told me so.
That, the flight 93 or something, United Airlines 93. United, yeah, yeah, yeah. of expertise because a guy on YouTube told me so that
the flight 93 or something
United Airlines 93
that was supposedly heading towards
Capitol Hill or the White House
when the passengers took it over
yeah
is that the one that hit the Pentagon?
no
it's like if you ever go down
these YouTube rabbit holes which
you can do
you go to some weird places
with it
like there's so many
different conspiracy theories
that
because there's so many
you kind of just
disregard them all
yeah
you kind of just end up
going like
well you're always
fucking
alright this one's plausible
and then they'll go
into something even more nuts
like there's loads about it
being holograms
and things like that
and you just go oh this like this is what is it octon's razor where it's like the
most simple explanation for something is usually the most logical it is the thing so uh i don't
know where i'm going with this again but uh i think we've just debunked 9-11 you see the only
the only other thing i'll take all the credit the only other thing my dad goes on about in 9-11. You see, the only other thing my dad goes on about
in 9-11 is
one of the
first
one of the first
reporters
for seeing
fuck's sake
dad slides again
come on
is that a scale model you've made?
That Lego was for your grandson, for Christ's sake.
Why are you playing that?
The only other thing he's on about,
the very first reporter that we're reporting on CNN's name
was Eric Shun.
Eric Shun?
Eric Shun? Yeah, yeah. Genuine guy's name was Eric Shun. Eric Shun? Eric Shun?
Yeah, yeah.
A genuine guy's name was Eric Shun.
It wasn't, was it?
Yeah, yeah.
Was it actually?
No, that's actually true.
We had a family.
That's also my friend Nicholas.
I was in reception or something at the time.
His parents, the day before 9-11,
had been up between towers.
Wow.
Because they were holidaying in New York,
came back to London,
and Nicholas was staying with us at the time.
But even though they came back,
my dad, because they were jet-lagged,
they were staying up there,
so they hadn't seen Nicholas yet.
And apparently, while watching all this going on,
I looked at Nicholas and went,
your parents could be up there,
and then just carried on with my day.
Oh, when you were in school?
Yeah, but this is like...
So you were a cold-blooded psychopath as well when you were that age?
No, no, no, because I was like four.
So I didn't have like...
Like empathy?
Like empathy or anything, yeah.
I just had like, oh, I'll just say this to someone
because this is on the news.
I don't remember it at all.
You get those people, like my pal,
see when the terrorist attacks were in France
and the gunners went out
at a concert and shot
like, my pal was texting
me during that and he went, tell you what
just think, like two years ago I was
at that place, it could have been me
and he'd go, well no, that's not a fucking
that's not an argument, like you can't
that's the worst when
people make it, that's what
we've talked about this sort of thing before
the marking yourself
safe
yeah
and like
when the
Caridinian Ram crash
happened
I saw people
in Brighton
marking themselves
safe
and I thought
the tram's not
that fucking long
it's just such a way
for people to sort of
make something about them
that
I could have been there
yeah
that said
I'm going to be
that muggle myself
I felt like I was
fucking a curse on Glasgow
two years running
I was like
just down the road
from Big Accent
you know
the boss
the bin wagon
was the bin wagon
in the helicopter
Clutha Bar
oh really
I was in Jonglas
when Clutha hit
which is just down the road
and then I'd just come out
of the train station
like 20 minutes
before the bin wagon hit
Jesus
and I didn't live in Glasgow I'd just rock up to train station like 20 minutes before the bin wagon hit. Jesus. And I didn't live in Glasgow.
I just rocked up to the gigs and fucking leave a trail of destruction.
I felt like I was fucking cursed or something.
Wow.
Sorry, mate.
It's grim.
Sorry, sorry, sorry.
Sorry for doing that to you.
Sorry.
Hi.
So what got on at 9-11?
I don't know, just every conversation sort of ends up
going that way, don't it? It does, doesn't it? We saw the towers
before on Friends. Yeah. Oh, it's not much
Friends, are there? Yeah, there's quite a lot, actually.
Like, every kind of cutaway scene
does the Twin Towers
sitting there on Friends, and that's...
Have you heard the big new track?
Is it Juicy?
Yeah, Blow Up Like The World Trade. But it wasn't in relation to the towers, and it was trying to warn us have you heard the big new track is it Juicy yeah blew up like the world trade
but it wasn't in relation
to the towers
and it was like
fucking seven years before
or something
yeah but that's
that's to do with like
the world trade
the economy
blew up like the economy
it was like a metaphor
for the
for the FTSE 500
index having a rise
you know
you know
that traditional rock
fucking
people but do you ever find out
like when people
will start talking
about a conspiracy theory
and be like
like the one that's always
The Simpsons predicted
such and such
yeah yeah yeah
The Simpsons has so many episodes
they are running out of things
so if you look at all
they've predicted
the people are like
look they've predicted 15 things
and you're like yeah
out of like 500 episodes
yeah
it's like the blue card theory, isn't it?
Like you see what you're looking for.
You see what you're looking for.
It's that thing of when you're like, oh, you'll think of someone now.
Like let's say the comedian fucking Obi, right?
I haven't seen him in a little while.
But you pop up on your Facebook and I'll recognize it.
Aye, aye, aye, because it's on your head.
Because you've mentioned someone you haven't seen in a bit right
and it's in your head
and you're a bit more
piqued by that
but there's a million
people who you've
mentioned that
they never show up
but you forget that
you mentioned them
because they didn't
show up
so for every like
hundred there's one
and you feel like
it's a superstition
yeah
did you ever get
properly into
conspiracy theories Mark I think I like it I like conspiracies a lot and like it's superstition. Yeah. Did you ever get properly into conspiracy theories, Mark?
I think.
I like conspiracies a lot.
And, like, there's a great podcast called These Conspiracy Guys.
Conspiracy Guys on the Road.
And it's these Irish guys that do it, and it's proper funny.
And they kind of convince you with everything.
Like, there is a lot of evidence that you can stack up with a lot of stuff.
There's a great one, they do one
about Madeleine McCann's disappearance.
Really? And it's fascinating, some
of the stuff that they dig up, like, properly
fascinating. What's their
theory? Do they think it's the parents? Do they think
she's a goner? Yeah, I think that's their...
So they think that they accidentally
murked her? I think it was an accident
and then covered up. How would they hide her? The other thing I think it was an accident and then covered up
How would they hide that?
The other thing I think with that is
I think they just catapult us
and open Mars
She's on that Tesla
Imagine that
crash test dummy just took the helmet off
It's a 21 year old
Maddy McCann
Do you always find
with that
whenever people
will share a thing
on Facebook
like here's 10 questions
I'd like to ask
Kate McCann
and I just think like
leave the poor woman alone
like
you know
a kid's got me sitting
in the office
check the cover up
murder
she's had a tough time
no but
she's got
this is the thing I don't get she's had a tough time no but she's got this is the thing I
don't get she's got
other kids so why
would she just murder
that one
that's my that's my
maybe she was a
pain in the arse
I mean it's the
excuse but she might
have been
sometimes they really
fucking push you
and then you
that routine that's got loads of flack
about Rihanna like he started
Chris Brown started hitting her for nothing
he was like I mean
she shouldn't have hit her but it was probably not for nothing
he wouldn't be driving along getting along
and then he's like bleh bleh bleh
did you see the
I was talking about yesterday
did you see the Quincy Jones interview
Where they're claiming
Marlon Brando slept with Richard Pryor
Oh yeah
It's fascinating reading that
I put it on Facebook yesterday
It just makes you realise how dull celebrities are now
They're more media trained
There's more
There's more celebrities
than ever.
You'll never get a celebrity
like how you'll get
certain celebrities
back in the day
because there's only
a few channels.
Yeah,
this is true.
You know,
I gigged with Jasper Carrot
in Birmingham
a few years back,
right?
And I don't know
if he's before your time,
you might know him
from your dad.
I know of him,
yeah.
So Jasper Carrot,
no one will ever be
as famous as Jasper Carrot
as a comedian
as he was at the time
because there's
four channels
and he was on
fucking all of them
he's got a sitcom
on one
and a game show
on the other
and a sketch show
on the other
and he did adverts
and shit
and he was literally
like fucking
he was everywhere
on TV
yeah that's true
actually
did he not
end up
who wants to be
a millionaire
not his
is that his
I don't know
I have no idea
I'm not sure
because he
he took him
I think he went out the lane
like oh no he did golden balls
didn't he
was that him
yeah yeah
he presented golden balls
but I thought like
his company owned
I'm maybe speculating here
no idea
someone can find out
and tweet us
but as far as it went
like he was
this is what i said
when i was hosting i was like um oh i can't believe i got to introduce him onto the stage
i used to i used to watch him all the time with my parents in the living room i don't know what
he was doing with my parents you see what you were saying about celebrities being boring I don't think they are because
the shock value in our society
has gone up
so if you throw a hotel
if you throw a hotel at a TV
if you throw a TV at a hotel room
that's fuck all man
Logan Paul's doing videos of guys committing suicide
the shock values have been raised
so that shock value
in what people have to do
I don't think you get as many mental celebrities
I think people are more professional now
because the bar's been raised
to a point like with athletes
you can't be like George Best no more
George Best wouldn't get his game now
because he would need to be an athlete as well
as being that talented to get his game
so in football you're not getting George Best.
And I feel like it's probably the same, arguably, in comedy.
A lot of the people who are successful in comedy are fucking real hard grafters.
They get up early, they work at 9 or 5.
It's like when darts players stopped drinking during matches.
That's when this country went to shit.
That happens.
It's a marked day.
They don't drink anymore.
Oh.
Fuck.
Chris Dobie.
Do you know Chris Dobie, the dance player?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I think he's performed in front of him before.
Aye, aye, aye.
I'm pausing him on Facebook.
Is he professional now?
Is he proper?
There's actually two Chris Dobies on Facebook,
so you might be getting catfished.
Right.
There's two from the same area.
One's a dance player.
See the blonde lassie from Thailand.
What's that? that Chris Dobie
constantly hanging around
my area
like
always 15 miles
away from me
I was in Buxney
spelling the name wrong
so
I said
it was brilliant
we had
we had Paul Sinner
on
and he knew
Chris Dobie
like he knew a little bit about his career
but he also in the interval
when he found out he was in, done a whole load of
research on his career and Paul Sinner
who's the chaser
for anyone that may not know he's one of the quiz
masters on the chase, very intelligent
man, tons of knowledge and
he done all his research and remembered
Chris Dobie's career to how he
signed off every Darts game right and went on stage and just started rec Chris Dobie's career to how he signed off every Dots game
right
and went on stage
and just started
reciting Dobie's career
out of him
telling him how he beat
how he beat everybody
how he signed off
it was fucking remarkable
I
I read it
Chris Dobie just went
you know more about me
than me
I read that
I read a tweet earlier on
I can't remember who did it
like
to credit him
in like the comments
and stuff like that
and it was about
the chase and
you know the guy, the big massive guy, the beast
he was like Mark Labette
or something like that
and the guy's tweet said
I didn't realise that he was called the beast
because the beast in French
is Labette and his second name
is Labette and I always thought
it was just because he was a fat cunt.
I thought I was going to go nonchalant.
The beast.
We need to get into muggle corners.
Did you come equipped with some muggles?
Mark, I like to do this just for people that are tuning in to the podcast
without having listened to previous ones,
but also because you're a new guest.
Could you tell us what you think a muggle is?
So a muggle is a person that does something
that you just kind of look at it and go,
oh, for Christ's sake, that's pathetic.
Do you know what I mean?
I think that may be the best description, yeah?
I think that may be the best one.
That's what I understand it to be.
All right, what are you...
Oh, sorry, mate.'s what I understand it to be. All right, what are you... You got me to the back of it.
Oh, sorry, mate.
So what are you going to...
You're going to open Mark,
what makes you look at people and think they're pathetic?
Right.
Since you've set it up with that.
Two of these are going to be contentious,
so I'll start with the safe one.
People who drink Prosecco.
Oh!
And that leaves me in the other room.
I fucking hate Prosecco.
With a Prosecco.
I don't understand when Prosecco became a thing
Like
It must have been like six years ago
I'd never heard of Prosecco
It's just that sex in the city
Kinda Prosecco o'clock
Kind of shit
Where like women
Groups of people
Pretending it's like this incredibly
Sophisticated drink
It's just shite champagne
it's cheap
piss champagne
it's like
I had a mate who
on New Year's
one year came in
and go
that boy's got a few
bottles of champagne
acting all big
and just walked in
and I was like
they're 7 quid bottles
of Prosecco
you mad cunt
you just didn't know
the difference
and the thing is
I don't even
I don't dislike it
as a drink
I think it's quite nice
and tasty
I just hate the whole
kind of
the wankiness around that
kind of
the society
that's developed around it
I can't stand that
let's get a bottle of Prosecco
this is a way of a
mugglery
it's actually like
fucking
it's getting quite a few
a few people
on board with it
right
it's a movement
where people that are
otherwise non-muggly
aye aye aye
I'll get in on it
yeah yeah yeah
like you'll be
because you're getting
married
you'll have to
so
like you're
are you having
like drinks
like so after the
reception
so during the meal
there'll be
Prosecco
on tap
there'll be
sponsored by Prosecco
there'll be
champagne and wine
like getting topped up
throughout the meal
and then there's a
meato bar
but actual champagne
like
yeah
hold on
I think so
I'm not in charge
but yeah
sure
would you
would you say
Carver champagne
what's Carver
Carver's
I think that's
fizzy white wine
I think it might just
be that
so that's
do you find as well
because I agree
with the Prosecco thing
I find as well
it can be the same
with other drinks
like Jager Bombs
the way people
can get mad
about Jager Bombs
they're like
oh Jager Bombs
and you're just like
it's just Red Bull
and Jager
however
you say that
but fucking
Jager Bombs
the wheels come off
the bus for Jager Bombs
you sometimes have
that moment
where you're having
a Jager Bomb
and it feels like
a fucking cut scene
in a drama
where you put the
fucking glass down on the table
and flash forward
to the carnage in the morning.
It's like something...
They can be unruly, right?
You never have that...
You never have that cutscene feel
with a glass of Prosecco
when you clink it there.
It's because of that.
It's because of that proper caffeine hit
at the same time as the alcohol.
That's why Buckfast is like a mental drink.
Like, Buckfast has got like...
I think it's like the taurine
that Red Bull has, the stuff that keeps you awake, Bugfast has got like, I think it's like the taurine that Red Bull has,
the stuff that keeps you awake.
Bugfast has got fucking ridiculous,
like 2,000 times your recommended level in a bottle,
and that's why it's such a mental drink.
It's not even that strong an alcoholic drink,
but the caffeine just hits you.
The Muggle Rebo Prosecco comes around,
like any of them Muggle-type quotes,
like I've got 99 problems
in Prosecco
I see that kind of shit
anything like that
that's what it's
drawn in isn't it
aye
it's that
aye
it's a Muggle bug light
in it
that just draws them
towards it
and you can spot them
from miles off
when people do
things like that
so I know
fine well
we have thrown
a lot of listeners
into the podcast
for the Prosecco
Muggle Re a public enemy because
Mary and Natalie and everyone
Wait till you see the next two
Soraya
It shots my head
It shots my head from Mark but yes I agree
and I'm guilty of it
myself because I have enjoyed the Prosecco
party a lot too
Do you remember that time we were back here
I think it was me,
you,
Danny,
Stanley and Tom.
We were,
you were like,
I'll go find us a bottle of drink.
It's like seven in the morning.
We're in a sesh.
And you just come out with this bottle of Prosecco,
pour it.
And the next day you're like,
oh,
it turns out that was Natalie's really nice bottle of Prosecco.
No,
it was,
it was actually fucking the champagne
from a friend's
wedding
who went
who went
champagne tasting
oh jeez
went champagne tasting
right and come back
and give Natalie
gifted Natalie a bottle
of the champagne
that was from the wedding
and you just
and you wasted it
on me
you tanned it
at seven in the morning
I come in
with fucking
snowflakes
falling at my nose
fucking took the coke
off of my teeth
started drinking it
through the bottle
like fucking Randy
off South Park
shirt tail hanging it
I find out something
like champagne
like at Christmas
one year when I came up
there for New Year's
I got sent a bottle
of champagne and I don't know anything about champagne and I was like this is wasted on me champagne like at christmas one year when i came up there for new year's i got sent a bottle of
champagne and i don't know anything about champagne and i was like this is wasted on me and uh this
year i got sent uh two bottles of nice harrods red wine um from my agency and uh i accidentally
put the red wine in the fridge and just kept it in the fridge for the whole thing actually
same room temperature but like you can't be a heathen if you want but that's a recommendation
oh okay
I'd have made it
and it's been in the fridge
just as long as you
drank it with fish
no I'm just joking
drank it out of a bottle
we're fucking scumbags
so
you thought of this
this crossed me
before when
you were saying
it's been in the last
six years or something
have you ever thought
it might have always
been on the scene
but we've only started being middle class tourists for the last six years that something have you ever thought it might have always been on the scene but we've only started being
middle class
tourists for the
last six years
that's a good
point actually
I probably didn't
even know about
hummus until
about six years
ago but I'm
sure that's how
it's been around
yeah
hummus is quite
an old thing I
reckon
fucking bad
boy like
stop rattling
your crisp
packer please
on the podcast
sorry everyone
you want
I've got pizza
coming as well
haven't I
you eating chocolates before your pizza?
Well, yeah, I'm a little bit hungover,
and I don't really know what I want in life.
We went out last night.
Went to the casino, but didn't gamble.
It was good, wasn't it?
We just propped the bar up, drank a load of gin,
and you started on it.
No, no, no.
I knew this was going to be brought up.
I did not start on the bartender.
He was being a wank state.
I was within my rights to get as angry as I did. He was being a wank state I was within my rights
to get as angry as I did
he was being a wank state
now Nate right
because I think
it wasn't us right
I think
I think Adam might have just
because I
well Adam Bloom last night
he was fucking
he was lovely to this barman
he was chatting to him
but he was just
he's very full on Adam
and he was very talkative
and I think the barman
thought he might have been
taking the piss a little bit
it might not have been that it might have been but he just stopped he
just started for some reason being really obtuse with us like he wouldn't uh serve us around unless
everybody was there yet would see him do like serving other people like everyone so I come back
after he'd served you three but wouldn't give give them an extra drink for me and when I come back
Adam was like oh here's my card you're gonna have to get a drink because everyone had to be there
and he was purposefully ignoring us at the bar after he'd
already been dicks for you guys and then this guy come and stood next to me i'd been waiting there
like 10 minutes he come and stood next to me and the split second he stood there the barman made a
for him and served him with a bit of a glint in his eye as long as he was trying to wind you up
but the guy realized what had happened but didn't realise it was a power player by the barman,
and he instantly just went,
oh, what are you having to drink, mate?
I'll get yours, sorry for butting in.
Oh, nice.
And he bought me a drink,
and you could see the fucking defeat in the barman's eyes
as he tried to mug me off,
but then it backfired on him,
and he reluctantly poured us this drink,
and I don't know what it boiled down to,
because I don't think we'd done anything to offend him.
I don't even think Adam did.
I just think he...
He was being a douche.
And because when I was at the bar,
I was stood there for a little while,
letting everyone...
You know, I have bar etiquette.
I'm not going to push in front of people.
I think that's a proper dick move.
But saying that,
I don't let people push in in a bar.
If I see it, I will be like,
dude, wait your turn.
Come on.
You've got to wait your turn here.
And you were having a chat with this lad.
And then he ended up standing next to us. And the barman came up to me and uh i just went oh yeah
can i get uh you know ordered the drinks and he went to the other guy what are you having to start
making his drink and i went dude i've been standing here for a while and he started going
oh what you're gonna call the manager oh manager oh manager yeah and then i can't believe you
bought the beer yeah and then i just yeah and then uh he came he he didn't us all night. I can't believe you bought the bait. Yeah, and then I just... You've been at us for four hours. Yeah, and then he came, he then, like...
So I can't remember, I sort of went,
don't be a dick, and, like, because...
Hey, he's been a dick, I'm going to call him on it.
So he then walked round the fucking bar.
Oh, you're doing that because all the security are there.
You're doing that because the security are there.
Exactly.
So what are you getting excited for?
That is why he's doing it.
And look at this date you're in.
Yeah.
It's worked.
Yeah, damn right. He's fucking nailed it Fuck you Mario
At the Hippodrome
He's crushed it
Because look at the clip you're in
I know
He got nowhere with me Mark
Aye aye
He got absolutely nowhere
Exactly
I get what you're saying
When he come on the bar as well
Listen
When it's Prosecco o'clock
I get it
Daddy wanted his Prosecco
Yeah when he come
Run the bar
He was
Because he saw the anger
You were in right
And he come run casually right
He was dying for you
To swing for him
Dying for him
Because you would have
Getten bad advantage
You stayed with Strain
Me and Mark
Fucking pulled you in
I wasn't going to hit him
But you
You start shit
With a barman
In a casino
I said this to you
Last night as well If you remember It's like when you Attack a barman In a casino I said this to you last night
As well if you remember
It's like when you
Attack a villager
In Skyrim
And the whole fucking village
Just attacks you
You're fucking doomed
You're on a save loop
You have to go back
Two save points
To fucking
But my point is
Is alright
As much as I did that
I think it's good
To have a thing in life
Where you're like
Alright
I'm not going to be bitched
In certain situations
But you were No no no Alright he bitched in certain situations but you're with
no no no
alright he bitched me
like I left
I didn't get a drink
but there's other times
in my life
and you left
and you're hoping
you're winning
like a bitch on a podcast
yeah yeah
you got bitched
that bloke
that bloke didn't
fucking break a sweat
where does it end
it ends there
where does it
no no no
but then what
do I let someone
move into my house
and start
drinking my water
and eating my food.
That's a hell of a departure
from that.
That's where it ends up.
Do you know what I mean?
That's where we go.
That's what happens.
I don't.
I think the only way
you can get a victory with them
is by staying calm
and letting the guy next to you
buy you a drink
and the minute he gets
under your skin
he's won his little game.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He's won his little game and it's yeah, he's won his little game.
And it's something I'll definitely have to learn and work on in life.
But I do think, I hate it when people work on the basis of,
you're going to be, what annoys me about that is that that's his modem of power.
I get to serve someone in their G&T and like,
I try my hardest not to be a dick to bar staff.
It shouldn't be difficult.
No, no, no.
It shouldn't take an effort.
You're supposed to, dumb motherfucker.
No, but you see...
I take it on my kid.
No, no, no, but you see people at bars,
the way they'll treat bar staff.
I mean, like, you know, all of that stuff.
I think that's horrendous.
That's another human being working on the other end of it
come on man
you know
and they've got to watch
other people have a fun night out
and get more drunk
more fun
that can be quite irritating
I imagine
so then if you're going to work
in a bar in the Hippodrome
like I'm just coming up
I'm ordering my drink
you know
yeah
what I was confused is
I couldn't pinpoint
what it was
that was done
just does
and if your
if your mode of power
is that you're gonna start
being a dick to people through this is your thing oh wow fuck them they're not getting their gg
ha ha ha i've ruined their night it's that man what are you doing in life like what are you doing
bro just be nice to people just you know serve people their drink do your job have a chat with
everyone every now and then you might make some friends and you might make your job a little bit
happier you might be that little bit happier
in your job.
Except for you, Mario.
I hope, like,
fuck your Christmas,
fuck everything you stand for.
Mario's right,
you do talk like a 16-year-old black girl.
Yeah, fuck your Christmas
in 300 days' time, Mario.
I hope everyone
who comes into that bar now
is like just a, I hope one night like a that bar now is like just
I hope one night
like a really rowdy
group of lads
just turn up
and he walks around
the bar to them
and they're really nice to him
and he changes ways
because
what are you going to do then Mario
throw a red turtle shell at us
nah
right so Prosecco's in the corner
do we agree
yeah
the Prosecco culture's in the corner
yes
drink away but don't have mandras.
Natalie's in a WhatsApp group called Prosecco Club.
I see that kind of shit.
She's such a muggle.
Elliot, you want in?
Yeah.
Muggles are
adults who go to
Disneyland
oh fuck you
adults who go to
Disneyland
fuck
what about
curly curls
without kids
oh yeah
fucking
nah
kids spoil it
dickhead
no
no
walk into that corner
and let Mark
have a conversation
see this is the thing
everybody has to agree but why everybody has to now we'll take some convincing No, no. Walk into that corner and let Mark have a conversation. See, this is the thing.
Everybody has to agree.
But why?
Everybody has to agree. Now we'll take some convincing and I'm going to give you my pitch.
Because, bro.
Mark Nelson, this happened to me.
I don't know if you know this about me, right?
My friend Carl got broke up with.
This was 2007.
His girlfriend broke up with him.
He was about to take her to Florida on a surprise holiday.
He told her to book two weeks off for her birthday.
Got surprised for her. Had Florida booked three days before the holiday. She said she'd been cheating on him. Breaks up with him and he was about to take her to florida on a surprise holiday he told her to book two weeks off for her birthday but i surprised her he had florida booked three days before the holiday she said she's been cheating on him breaks up with him he rang me asked if i
want to come to florida and i figured it out i figured off the time off work it was a bit tricky
and i went to florida with me and my pal on a man date it was the fucking best time mate
we're adults in disneyland it's, you know, it's got Universal Studios,
Island of Adventure,
fucking Epcot,
MGM Studios,
the fucking international drives,
the tits anyway.
You wouldn't want to go there
with your pal.
You'd want shitty kids there,
spoiling it.
No,
no,
bro,
go to Thailand.
Like,
what are you doing
going,
standing in a cutesy Mickey Mouse?
You're a grown man, have some respect. I'm not cutesy Mickey Mouse you're a grown man
have some respect
I'm not cutesy
Mickey Mouse
you pick and choose
what you think
there's enough
for everybody
I went on the
fucking Hulk ride
take a four year old
on that
and then we'll
fucking stop
I think theme
I was going to throw
and I like theme parks
every now and then
I think theme parks
are muggly anyway
like Fulton Park
and something
I think
I wouldn't say that
I'd say Disneyland but the Universal say I'd say I'd say Disneyland
but the Universal
Studios I'd go to
that
but I get so
this is where the
thing is right
when you go to
Florida Universal
Studios they're all
I always feel like
they're all one in
the same so I am
lumping in the
best theme park in
the world essentially
with Disney right
but even the
Disney shit's amazing
so did you have to
pretend to be this
girl
well I didn't put a dress on I I the irony Isn't he shit's amazing. So did you have to pretend to be this girl? What?
I had to put a dress on.
Aye, aye.
The irony being she was cheating on a guy that dressed up as Mickey.
I just changed the name.
That's the only cost to me was to change my name on the...
So a completely free holiday?
Aye.
Fucking amazing.
Just for spending money.
Because when he rang us, right,
it was actually his brother that rang us
because I grew up with these two brothers on my street
and it was the older brother who I was closest with,
Ragus, the same old young'un,
our kids, just being in this situation.
It's like six in the morning or something.
What?
Maybe not that early.
It was before I started work, that's for sure.
And then I was like,
oh, no, I haven't got the holidays, I haven't got the spending money, I can't do it. And I went back started work, that's for sure. And then, and then I was like, oh no,
I haven't got the holidays,
I haven't got the spending money,
I can't do it.
And I went back to bed,
woke up for work.
I was like,
what have I just done?
No,
I got back immediately and signed up.
I see that.
I mean,
you went,
you went not going that way.
You wouldn't sit in your pile.
I mean like,
I'm not a muggle.
Let me explain.
I mean like Disneyland Paris,
isn't it?
Like,
if you're,
if you're going to America that's just exciting
because it's America I'd still say you're a muggle for going to Disneyland over there when you could
go to loads of things you know I mean I'm sure there's like plenty of stuff to do in America
it's like loads of coliseums and shit I had tons of but uh even like Disneyland Paris you know like
if if you want what are you gonna stand there and watch the parade is that what you're doing
with your days yeah I want a fucking decent fairway displays are good what do you want to what are you going to stand there and watch the parade is that what you're doing with your day as an adult
yeah I want a
decent fairway
displays are good
what do you want
as an adult
no man it's just
muggly
what I mean is
it's muggly
you're going to
buy your
Mickey Mouse
yeah because you're
all going to buy
your Mickey Mouse
hats you're going to
stand there in the
corner and you're
going to go
oh look there's
Tinkerbell
come on
that's muggly
that is the
definition of muggle
no no no
what you said there is it's muggly to buy merch no no and it's muggly that is the definition of muggle no no no what you said there
is it's muggly
to buy merch
no no
and it's muggly
but the whole thing
is just
merch
the whole Disneyland thing
the whole point of it
is just one giant
bit of merch
if you threw
M&M World
in Muggle Corner
and I was like
yeah Disneyland
has to go in Muggle Corner
see this is what I like
about Disneyland right
and the same reason
I like the Star Wars
franchises
I want to see
what places do with unlimited money.
Yeah.
You know what they do?
You've got unlimited money,
what are you going to do with your ultimate budget?
Like, money's no object, what are you going to build?
And Disney is the epitome of that.
They need to send a Disney toy into space, man.
That's what you do with unlimited money.
It is.
Musk raised that game.
Your Harry Potter ride ain't gonna cut it
oh but dude
is it not the MGM Studios
in Disney
where they've got
the Tower of Terror
have you been on that thing
is that the thing
that's based on the
psycho
house
it's the
elevator
that drops
that just drops
what's happening
you're going up the elevator
and then
it starts moving forward
through a corridor
and there's like holograms
of ghosts and shit
in this corridor.
It's like a little bit shiny.
See, that's cool.
And it's cool as fuck
and then it gets to the edge
and you look out over the theme park
and then it just drops.
The elevator drops
and you just have this fucking...
Is there not a Spider-Man ride
where a hologram of Spider-Man jumps
in the car next to you?
That's technically not Disney.
Well, it's definitely not Disney.
That's Island of Adventure, I think.
But what else is within Disney?
The fucking indoor one.
Who sings that song from Armageddon?
Aerosmith.
Aerosmith.
There's an Aerosmith right in there.
I just like Bruce Willis.
It's an absolute belt.
You're in the studio and there's a video
of them in the studio, like, fucking
telling you to get in the limo, and you get in the limo, and it's
this underground rollercoaster.
That's like, fucking goes over a city and shit,
so it like, banks around.
It's like, fucking
next level shit. You're talking shit.
No, no, no, what I'm trying to say is
is Disneyland, Paris,
things like that, people, adults getting excited about going to Disneyland
and putting a picture up there.
You've regressed it to Paris?
No, man.
Who's going to regress it and, like,
oh, watching DuckTales and stuff?
You know, like, I saw someone the other day
just put a picture,
and it was them and his missus went to Disneyland,
and they went and met, like, Mickey Mouse
and all of this stuff.
And I just thought,
that's muggly.
How is that not muggly?
To stand there in a
line to meet someone
dressed in a costume
of Mickey Mouse.
Right, right.
That's muggly.
There's definitely
muggles at Disneyland.
That specific thing is.
But I don't think
going to Disneyland is.
I think as an adult
going to Disneyland is
the height of muggle.
Because I didn't do
any of that shit
where I'm like
fucking muting Mickey
because what's the point
you want a photo
fucking Buzz Lightyear
and if you did
it would be ironic
right
and it would still be muggly
because you're still
part of the problem
if you did it
I've always said that
about mugglery
but we didn't fuck
any of that shit
we just went on a bunch
of sick rides
and ate good food
I should take a picture
where like
whoever's dressed as Mickey
or Buzz Lightyear
is bending over
and you pretend to bum him
like that's
that's a funny
photo
or he's got his
head under his arm
having a cigarette
eye eye
that's a eye
because in his
times
like me
doing stuff
Mark Nelson
was essentially
the cast
of Toy Story
yeah
yeah
just
getting your
daughter to take a picture of you pretending you're Woody Donald Duck getting your daughter
to take a picture of you
pretending to be Woody
Donald Duck
with a sign that says
hashtag me too
Wiley Clarity
going off the cliff
as he holds up the sign
so what do you think Mark
you think it should go
on Muggle Corner
no I don't
I reckon there's's not only for kids
no
I reckon there's magic
in it for kids right
but as an adult
you'd love to see
your kids at Disneyland
for sure right
but also
you'd also love
them to be in a crush
for fucking two hours
while you're
getting blasted
aye aye
I don't think it should go in
sorry
sorry Elliot
there's definitely
Muggles in Disneyland
for sure
and they are
stood there
getting a fucking
photograph of me
I think it's the most
muggly thing in the world
and I want people
to tweet in about
how muggly this is
because it is
the height of muggle
alright well
yeah people are
entitled to fucking
tweet and tell us
if I'm wrong
because I mean
I was kicking off
at the podcast
when Eric
wouldn't put something in
I think this is like
you think people are screaming at the podcast now Disneyland is the put something in. I think this is like that. It makes me mad.
You think people are screaming at the podcast now.
Disneyland is the height of muggle.
And I know there'll be people there and I know you'll be going,
no, it's not.
I had a great time when I went there and met Cinderella.
You're being a muggle.
There's nothing wrong with being a muggle, but you're being a muggle.
And it's such a weird thing for me to go, oh, it's not muggly because I've done it.
That's not what I'm saying, right?
It's like one of the original things I've ever said is like, just because something's popular doesn't make a muggly blowjobs are popular yeah like you're not gonna get a blowjob now what am i doing yeah it's like if something just do it
in the corner if something feels awesome and it is awesome you're not gonna be like oh but people
are gonna think i'm a muggle yeah you can get pretend money at disneyland you can trade in
actual money
with like Disney dollary do's
they're definitely cashing in on Muggles for sure
they're not denying that Muggles are
that's Muggly
to go somewhere with money and go let's buy a pretend
currency I mean technically there's no
gold behind that currency either because I've watched
again another YouTube video about it
so you might be better off with the Disney money in the future
he keeps his Disney money in the walls
I invest it
all in Bitcoin
great
so we're going
to put
well actually
this is either
going to be a
long podcast
or this will
have to be
the last Muggle
corner
I didn't make
this the last one
because we've
got gigs to get
to as well
so this is
very appropriate
actually
Muggles agree
to disagree
you know when
you're in a row
with someone let's agree to disagree. You know, when you're in a row with someone.
Right, okay.
Let's agree to disagree.
That's not agreeing on anything.
Aye, that's true.
Aye.
That is you pretentiously going,
well, I still think you're wrong.
Aye.
And I'm going to leave it now
and walk away with my head held high
that I'm right,
even though I didn't persuade you otherwise.
You know, don't agree to disagree.
Continue pitching why you think you're right
if you're not sure
don't bail
don't back out
you've either arrogantly
gone
you're talking shite
and I know I'm right
but I can't be arsed
dealing with you anymore
or you've completely
folded in your own argument
so there's no
it's proper
so when I ask people
agree to disagree
I'll be like
no I still believe
you're wrong
yeah yeah
if you're talking to
a proper thicko though
like and
don't both look at me like I can't even imagine what that must be like
you're chatting to like imagine you were trying to explain to me like i don't know how something
is saying the alphabet i know how the alphabet works it's just letters in an order in it
and uh how many in one order and how's it decided oh don't make me do
the alphabet man
do the alphabet
um
A B C
no no no
the baby alphabet
what's the baby alphabet
abacadabra
abacadabra
okay
I don't know
A B C D E F G
H I J K M L N O P
yes I got it wrong Emil Emil E-F-G H-I-J-K M-L-N-O-P M-L-N-O-P Yes
Am I going wrong?
Am I lame?
Am I lame?
L-M-L-O-P
He just heard the noise
A-C-D-E-F-G
H-I-J-K
M-L
I can't say that letter man
You know what it is?
It's a cool letter
It's a very tricky letter
Oh god
It's like when You letter. Oh, God.
It's like when you don't know the words to a song,
but you'll just mumble it anyway.
Like, my love ain't got no money.
He's got his trombolies.
That's not the words, but that's what you hear.
So you say trombolies.
So you just heard the other kids doing the alphabet.
And you went, M-L-O-P.
Q-R-S-T-E-W-X-Y-Z.
What is it?
Now I know my ABC.
What grades did you get at uni?
I got a couple of A's, a B, a C, and then an M-L-M-O.
You got an M-L-M-O?
M-L-M-O.
Tickle me, M-L-M-O.
Do you know what?
The alphabet's kind of redundant now because we've got the keyboard. What are you talking about?
It's the entire basis of life.
Oh, it's the entire basis of life.
Oh, we could have evolved.
It's the entire basis of language.
It's the cornerstone of our language is the alphabet.
You can't deny that.
I'm not denying it.
What I'm saying is
the QWERTY keyboard
yes
which
Elliot
I'm going to equip you
with some information
so you can finish your point
the QWERTY keyboard
came into play
because people got too fast
at typing on typewriters
so they muddled up the keys
to make people type slower
so that the fucking keys
didn't get stuck
they just muddled them up
to make people type slower
but it carried on
into computers
where it doesn't matter
you could put them
ABCD it wouldn't matter now it's just a relic
it's a leftover tradition like not even tradition a leftover relic that's carried on into our
keyboards continue with it doesn't matter about the alphabet we've got qwerty now i thought i
thought the reason we had the qwerty keyboard was because of the way you put your hands on
the keyboard those were the it's close it's the letters that you probably use the most
so you type with them one so it's like that's why x and y and stuff is down there because it's the letters that you probably use the most so you type with them one so that's why X and Y and stuff is down there
because it's like
that's why Q's not next to you
sure
I'm not going to be using
that's why Q's next to W instead of U
alright yeah
no I know what I'm saying but
why would you assume something
and then just like
totally confidently
battle it
because sometimes
without knowing
I'm having flashbacks to the bar last
time
no I'm just
trying to be
funny with it
like
so that like
on a query
keyboard there's
like three
big buttons
like three big
keys there's
like a return
key yeah
there's a space
bar and then
the big massive
one in the
corner
MLMO
very few words there's no word you can spell, MLMO.
Very few words.
There's no word you can spell without MLMO.
It's the way my accent works.
I think, don't get me wrong,
the alphabet's done a lot for us.
The alphabet's done a lot.
It's done a lot.
And credit where credit's due.
Just giving us names.
Yeah, but don't you think like letters and
stuff
imagine you had to
try to explain
to aliens
like language
how does it
come down to
aliens coming
like
we're gonna have
to agree to
disagree
yes
belt on
right so
so to agree to disagree is to
pretentiously back down
on your argument and let them know
as you depart that you think they're wrong
and this is the thing
the only other way you can agree to disagree is on
something subjective like you can say to me
which you wouldn't but somebody could say
I think Dave Chappelle's shit and I'd be
like well I'd disagree with that but I wouldn't say but somebody could say, I think Dave Chappelle's shit. And I'd be like, well, I disagree with
that. But I wouldn't say, oh, we'll have to agree to disagree.
I'd be like, oh, I disagree.
Like, I think your opinion on
Dave Chappelle's wrong. You're quite entitled to your opinion, but I'm
not going to agree to disagree. I'm not going to agree to disagree
on that one. I'm going to disagree with that
reluctantly later. It's just a good
way to sort of be like, I'm done with this
argument. It's a muggly way to do it.
It's definitely muggly. It's definitely muggly way to do it yeah but it's a it's definitely muggly it's definitely are you gonna not put it in just because i didn't
put disneyland in because that's gonna get your enemies no i'm not i'm not gonna do that like i'll
put it in because i reckon i reckon you're probably right on it um yeah i'll allow it in right so we're
gonna put muggles in the corner for agreeing to disagree uh there is muggles in disneyland that's
for certain but i don't think going to Disneyland without kids
is muggly
you can have yourself
a fucking bill there
and the one
that you put in
Prosecco Culture
Prosecco Culture
100% in
so have yourselves
a good minute
in the corner
and it's a shame
we've got a few more
but we've got stuff to do
and so have other people
they don't want to be
stuck on my podcast
for hours
so Mark
I want to tell you
something about your dad
before I start
sticking shit
to your father
I'll put John Nelson
do you have anything
to plug
well

six pence an episode.
