Or might just be cynical.
Muggled it up on fuckin' Mugglepedia!
Where have you been since 9-11?
Come on then, you do a good intro.
Hello, welcome to the podcast.
What was that?
It's a fucking good intro, it's what it needs.
Welcome to Sloss and Humphreys on the road.
I am Sloss slash Cream, he is Kai slash Muggins.
We are cranky as fuck right now oh it's just
so
we've had a lovely tour
so far
in mainland Europe
but
after
Zagreb
we had
we went
we had to stay for drinks
with everyone there
because it's such a good show
went to bed at 2
and there was a few people
back in Natasha and Nino's house
so we all went back
I mean my arm was so easily twisted
right
I was just going to you
I was walking to the house
and I was having a pep talk
with you again
look we've got a
lobby call at like 5 o'clock
it's nearly 1 o'clock now
but we have to
let's not drink tonight
and then
while we're having
that conversation
Natasha I was on the phone
with Nino
and went
Nino's in the shop
do you want wine
I was like
we're both like
yeah red please
thank you we'll just have one so we went yeah so probably went I thought Nino went, Nino's in the shop, do you want wine? I was like, we're both like, yeah, red please. Thank you.
We'll just have one.
So we went, yeah, so probably about two,
and then lobby call was 5am,
and then went to, fucking where were we yesterday?
Oh, Cluj in Transylvania, and went to bed at 12.
So I didn't go to sleep at all after Zagreb.
I powered right through, because I was so worried about sleeping in.
But then this morning we had a lot,
we call it 4.45?
4, yeah.
And it's just two days of three hours sleep.
And you can nap and stuff,
and people go,
you can sleep on a plane.
So it's not the same as an eight hour sleep.
It's just not.
I'm going to put out days now.
I'm so confused.
I'm confused with anything. The main thing that's confusing is,
is are we in the same seats?
Why do you know my answers?
Why don't I ask?
Because you were like a petulant child.
It's a thing for years.
When my brothers were younger,
and the reason my brothers are such shitty little...
Oh, they're getting better now,
but the reason they were shitty for ages
was because whenever they did stuff to annoy me, I would
react and that's why they
did it, they did it to get a reaction
and I would react and then
because they're kids and that's the only way they knew how to
get my attention, if they did something nice I wouldn't
react, if they did something horrible
I would react and it was a stupid thing
and I've learned that now, you do it to get a reaction
and you're no longer getting a reaction
I'll not react
It's funny that your tactics hasn't worked for four years because the reason I bring this up is because there's people and I've learned that now. You do it to get a reaction and you're no longer getting a reaction. I'll not react.
It's funny that your tactics hasn't worked for four years
because the reason
I bring this up
is because there's people
that didn't listen
to the podcast
where we're talking about this
and they're seeing
my Snapchat
and Instagram feed
and they don't get
where it came from.
It came from
my first tour
four years ago.
And just for all those people
asking the question,
it also wasn't funny then?
No, it wasn't meant to be funny then.
The original one was,
I was asking you if we sat next to each other,
because you had your boarding pass,
I had mine,
and just to say if we were seated together,
I said,
are we in the same seats?
But meaning I was sitting next to each other,
and you were laughing and saying,
go and stand in the corner for 30 seconds,
you fucking mug,
why would we be in the same seats?
Because your number's not going to be printed
the exact same on
the ticket.
So I just decided to do
it the next day, and the next day,
and the next day, and I've done it non-stop
for four years.
Because you're a petulant child. And it's been like water
torture for it. You can see
dying a little bit more inside every day.
Just surprising. You ever died inside?
Oh, I love it. Because you know what? I was getting a little bit bored of it. It was you ever died inside like oh I love it because you know what
I was getting a little bit bored of it
it was almost like
I was doing it reluctantly too
I would sometimes be getting
on the flight with you
next to you going
we're in the same seats
I couldn't be asked to do it
but now that I've gotten
into Snapchat and Instagram
and I can share
with the world
your misery
when I see it
oh
it brings a new little bit of joy
I mean
you know I nearly ran out
of battery today and nearly couldn't do it it's you know i nearly ran out of battery today
and couldn't nearly couldn't do it it's highly hypocritical of you so they've been like why do
you take because your whole big complaint to me was why do i take joy in your misery that is one
of the reasons like the other day when your handle on your luggage broke just anytime anytime i'm
about to feel bad about something happening to you I just remember how
often you do that every day on tour
and I'm like there's not enough bad things that can happen to you
I don't think we've mentioned that on the podcast
what? the luggage handle breaking
no we've not because we mentioned it in the
Q&A so we have talked about it
but this and actually
brought it up on
before it happened I brought up this
this is a bad thing I knew when we were doing I Love You, but.
And I apologised for it then, and I absolutely take it back now.
My luggage handle broke, so I just bought an 18-pound suitcase,
and I went to get the handle out, and the handle's just stuck in,
like, solid, and I couldn't get it out.
I'm just rolling around in this big fucking hefty suitcase with no handle.
And I've now seen you so happy.
You're happy now now with me living it
your face
you were so annoyed
and so sad
you just kept
got a big tour ahead of us
and you always look to me
for sympathy and you know
you're never going to get it
but every time
there's just these people
because I'm just
surprised that you haven't
learned it. I wouldn't have
noticed. I wouldn't have noticed
had you just left it
and then fixed it yourself and let it run
but it was just the
oh Norma, my baggage handle's broken
I was in such
a good mood
the day
in fact I confused
the promoter
something rotten
because we're in
Sofia right now
and the promoter
was helping us
into the hotel
get checked in
and stuff
and I took
the handle out
and with a little
bit of elbow grease
it come out
and then once it
was out
it would close
and go back in again
and I was just
looking at you
going ha ha
and I was like
opening my handle pulling my handle out putting it back in you look like
the biggest simpleton in the world be like look up and down up and down i think in your face
how do you like that how did the promoters look at this guy fucking hell fucking this guy loves
luggage but then i had the momentary panic where i was like well if the handle works
it may not be me i I quickly opened it, not a check.
So last time, where did we do the last podcast?
I don't know.
Vienna?
No.
Was it, where were we?
Listeners, where were we?
Shout.
Shout it?
Where were we?
Where were we?
Oh, that is another thing I have to bring up, right?
I'm actually empathetic to your struggle in this part,
which is when it comes to your accent,
like you cannot help your accent.
It's like where you're raised and stuff.
And also you've got the advantage of when we tour in the UK,
it's not as bad there.
People still understand you
because they've met, you know, Geordies before.
But then you've got the thing of in my company as well,
because I'm so fluent in Geordie now,
like even if I miss seven words that you've said,
I can work it out by the end of the sentence.
But the other day doing the encore in Zagreb
there were so many points when I just
had to stop you and I was like you are
doing this gig as if you're talking to me
like you were literally
there was points and you were getting so frustrated
by it and you were getting frustrated at me for calling you
out on it and I was like you not know
the reason they are laughing
is because they understood nothing
you just said and I literally
had to join in.
You know what it is?
When I'm doing my set, I've worked out how I need to pitch it,
what words I need to enunciate.
I've learned how to tell those stories to be understood.
But when you're in free form, it's such a different...
Yeah, and I can't plan for what we're going to talk about on the bit at the end.
And also, I feel sad backstage having a drink.
Aye.
So you're coming on fucking...
Having a skin full of wine.
Yeah, there's also several times you do it with...
Where, what?
Every time we go, every time we meet a promoter or whatever,
we had the lovely Flavia in Cluj.
We have...
Oh, balls, what's his name for today?
Florin?
Ivo.
Oh,
Ivan today.
Because some tour promoters we have,
like there's Tin in,
Libyana,
who speaks,
and Nino and Natasha in Croatia,
who speak absolutely fluent English.
They've almost got like a slight English accent too.
Yeah.
Like they've barely got the Slavic accent.
But here there's points when you've learned how to slow down your accent,
but you've not learned how to take colloquialisms out of your speech.
So you'll be talking to them like,
they're like, how was your flight?
And you're like, oh, you know, it was fine.
And it's like you've confused them with the first part of the sentence.
I was canny.
I, it was canny.
I, it was canny.
So, like, trying to decipher that from the...
Someone's learned English, right?
They've learned yes means yes.
And canny isn't a word, right?
And I is a letter.
How was your flight?
I, it was canny.
Right, imagine hearing that as one word.
Aye, it was canny.
It's like the name of a fucking motorbike.
Yeah, yeah.
You know what type of motorbike you get?
I got an I will canny 3000.
Aye, it's diesel.
It's got turbo injection.
Can you get diesel motorbikes?
Are they not all diesel?
I don't think so.
Why?
Like, this is something I'm completely ignorant in.
But in my head, diesel's like an economy fuel.
And, like, motorbikes are just, like, fucking economy, just open road.
But, like, they're quite economy.
I'm sorry, what noise did they make?
Fucking hell.
Imagine putting a plastic bottle in the brakes on an actual motorbike.
A double motorbike.
Something like that.
Anyway, I'm tired.
I've always...
I'd say...
I've always wanted to get a motorbike,
but I don't trust myself.
I've rapped everything that I've drove.
And also, I know how I drive in cars, right?
I'm so impatient in cars.
You would just be overtaking everything.
I would be overtaking everything and I'd die.
And I would.
Because every time I'm in traffic and I see a motorbike,
I'm not even angry at them.
I'm like, you lucky bastard.
That must be the best thing.
See, if I had a motorbike,
I would be going down that fucking middle aisle.
I'd have my feet
on the handlebars
and I would just be
kicking off
every single wing mirror
of a fucking car
that didn't indicate
I would just
I would just be like a
social justice road warrior
right
just
I'd have a little hammer
a chain
yeah
I properly would
I would have something
on the back
I would have banana peels
I'd have pies
A red shell
A blue shell
If I saw you being a shitty driver
Because the only reason I temper
In my road rage nowadays
Is because I know I'll get my fucking head kicked in
I would happily spend
Six months on a motorcycle and have them
Find me a lot of money
And never be able to ride a motorcycle again.
If for those six months,
I just got to be like,
every shitty driver I see,
I'm going to be the most obnoxious person in the world.
See if you're one of the...
I only get mad at people who get mad on the road.
If I'm behind someone that's going slow,
except if I'm on a country road
and someone's doing a bit under the speed limit limit i can kind of just sit patiently behind them i don't
need to overtake them as much as i don't want to die yeah so like you will be like up their ass
you'll be like like bopping out can i get by i'm gonna take this opportunity and i know a lot of
people like that i think i'm in the minority i will happily just fucking listen to my tunes
all right sit behind them i'm like what am i going to say every minute i'm not annoyed at those people driving safely i'm like you are driving at the speeds you're comfortable
at but the speed i'm comfortable driving at which is still by the way because i don't if you're on
if you're on a 60 mile an hour road and it's fucking 4 a.m and it's curvy and you want to do
40 miles an hour i'm like fine right you're you just you're not safe with that i'm fine doing 60 on those
roads right i'm a very good driver i drive constantly like i've got decent reactions
because you know i'm on pills i've got i get the one thing that i've downloaded on you and you
use this a lot it was there i get annoyed at people who think me indicator
is asking permission yeah when it's indicating you know when you're going to get back into lane
say like your slip roads coming up yeah right so you indicate it again at the left lane so you can
take a slip road and then they try and close that gap they're not like in and you're like oh oh i'm
not asking if i can get in i'm indicating yeah that that's where i'm going literally telling you
if i hit your car this is fucking on you now, son. Oh, it's like when people
in BMWs close the gap,
and it's like,
bitch, I drive a Volkswagen Golf.
Do you think I'm not willing
to get this thing pinged?
It's 10 years fucking old.
As if I give a shit
if I nick your car.
What are you doing?
Mate, I'll get out of the back
and I'll punch your kid
and see if I give a fuck.
So yeah, I rarely get,
you get quite a bit of people rage as well
especially in airports oh behind someone and um people are in the way a lot like i always try and
live my life is don't be an obstacle to other people so for other people have been an obstacle
to me i'm just like you've you've got your ethics all wrong you need to fix your ethics don't be an
obstacle don't get people don't like walk into a doorway and then stop and ponder what you're
gonna do like get out the doorway get to the and then stop and ponder what you're going to do. Get out the doorway, get to the left, then stop and ponder.
It's the same thing with driving with people.
You do not get to dictate the pace someone else lives their life.
If you want to go slow on a road, that's absolutely fine.
But if you're stopping someone getting back in or something, you're dictating
you, and that's why I get annoyed about slow drivers
because I'm like, you're dictating my pace. That's
not the pace I want to go. And it's the same
in fucking airports. That's why I'm surprised you
hate London as much as you do actually because they've
started getting systems where
like going up an escalator
everybody stands on the right
and walks on the left. So if anybody's
standing on the left,
the whole world has the right to get mad at them. Even though this
isn't a rule, this is just something that they've developed.
Right? You can go, fuck that cunt,
get over to the right.
They've developed that rule. Whereas if you're in Edinburgh,
you guarantee you're on Waverley Station,
and you're going to step on the escalator, and someone's going to be
stood in front of you.
That's where the rest of the world is flawed
compared to London. But London is still
People are still slow
Even though yeah
They're very fucking
I don't know what the word is
Regimented
They'll yell at each other
I'm also like
You are still all going far too slow
For the pace I want to go
I've never ever understood people that go,
it's not about the destination,
it's about the journey.
No, it's absolutely about the fucking destination.
What are you talking about?
Of course it's about the fucking destination.
Who enjoys the journey?
What are you,
like,
because Milo McCabe always calls me on it,
like, whenever we're out going clubbing,
I want to get to the next place we're going, right?
See, that's the thing.
Come on, finish your drinks.
Fucking chill out.
Hands in your pants.
We're walking somewhere
and there's ten people
and I know that I am the only person
That's dashing ahead where we're all just having a chat
No, no, no. I'm the only person that
one, knows the way. Two, is
constantly checking where everyone is because I know
I'm the one that's going to get a fucking phone call
if someone gets lost and goes,
do you know where,
because I'm the only one that's got a sense of direction,
right,
everyone else will be like,
we took a wrong turn,
where are you,
I'm the one that's going to,
so I'm the one that's going,
I'm following the people at the front,
right,
and I'm like,
I'll walk with you,
and I'll lead the way,
because none of you know where you're going,
oh surprise,
surprise,
Tom and Kai are at the back,
fucking shuffling,
so I go back, and then those people are going too far ahead, so I've got to corral you, and you're going. Oh, surprise, surprise. Tom and Kai are at the back fucking shuffling. So I go back
and then those people
are going too far ahead.
So I've got to corral you
and you're like,
actually, I'm like,
you're literally not going
where we're meant to be going.
I give less of a fuck
when I leg if people drop off.
I just be like,
ah, that takes where I am.
I just want a WhatsApp group.
I'm in the fucking bulldog.
I want to be where we're going next
because that's when I get to
that's when I'm no longer
in charge
the one time I start
getting rage with
with other human beings
is
when I'm going through
the airport security
and I have
I've got a little
smudge on my passport
I spilt wine on it
in Thailand
oh is this this
fucking cow at
was it fucking
Luton airport
yep
oh she could die the one at Luton Airport yep oh she could die
the one at Luton Airport
there was also
a guy today
kept looking at it
and he did
like he didn't ask us
about it
but he looked at it
and he was gonna do
something and he like
he scanned it
because it's electronic
so there's a little
like smudge
on the top corner
it doesn't like
none of my facial features
are smudged
but the top of my head
is like water blurred
right
and most people
just scan it
because it's electronic
and it comes up
on the screen
as the fucking
main picture
that's on the system
right
and then look at my face
and go that's him
but to be fair
that guy there
was well within his right
because he's actually
the passport checker
yeah but any of them
right
so even that
yeah I see what you're saying
the woman that was
just checking my bag in
that was none of her business
oh she can fuck off
like it's such a fucking hack thing to say but it was an easy jet flight an orange flight Yeah, I see what you're saying. The woman that was just checking my bag in, that was none of her business. Oh, she can fuck off.
It's such a fucking hack thing to say,
but it was an easy jet flight,
an orange flight,
with a woman with far too much makeup on.
And we're just checking her bags. It's out of her jurisdiction.
It's not her job.
This wasn't her job.
It's not her job.
That wasn't her job.
She wasn't on the security measures.
This was the same bitch.
It's like someone's helping you
at the self-service checkout.
It's a self-service,
and she's there bossing you around
and being rude to you.
And it's like someone coming up
and just, like, grabbing your groceries
and fucking scanning them through in a badge.
You're like,
fucking hands off my shit.
I'm very glad that robots are...
I'm real sad with the levels of unemployment,
but if a robot takes your job,
at least a robot's not going to be
as much of a fucking cunt as you are.
Because she was the same one.
I had my phone in one hand because I was checking the schedule, right?
And I had my passport and my boarding pass in the other one.
I'd scan my boarding pass into the machine.
It'd give me the thing, and she's like, can I see your boarding pass?
And I was like, you don't need to see it.
I've put it in the machine, and the next machine that needs it is over there,
and the woman that lets me on the flight, or the man, right?
Those are the people that need to see the boarding pass.
You're bored, right?
You're bored.
It's fabulous.
So I've got two hands filled, and she goes,
I need to see your boarding pass.
So I put my passport in my pocket, and I get the boarding pass.
I put my phone in my mouth, and she goes,
I also need your passport.
I'm like, can you not see that all of my extremities are literally occupied by the fucking arbitrary task
you've got me doing?
Oh, man.
She...
I really appreciate that people that are on poor wage jobs
aren't going to be in a great spirit
and aren't going to have a nice time.
But it makes us kind of fucking glad, though,
aren't you, money?
I'm just saying
you don't deserve to be on a decent paid job like you're not making an effort you're not trying to
like climb your way up to it like you're not going to build up a skill set you're not going to like
apply for shit i was like you're fucking stuck here enjoy your six punt and then but the what
i was getting at is every time the think about rejecting my passport, right,
I know it can let me through.
I've been to Australia on it.
I've been to Thailand on it.
I've been to Dubai on it.
I've been to most countries in Europe by now on it, right?
But every now and again, somebody considers ruining my day,
and I know they don't have to because every other place hasn't.
When they're thinking about fucking spoiling my day,
I've killed them in five six different
ways in my head
oh yeah
as you said
oh Kai
what happened
to your passport
a big fat load
of none of your
fucking business
like nothing
I came on it
it's fake
it's also a bomb
it's none of your
business
what's wrong
with my passport
because you're not
the passport person
the passport person
is over there
with the passport
checking qualifications
not the stand up
inside the machine in case it breaks down qualifications.
And if I'm, because the only reason I haven't replaced it is because I've needed it consecutively for a while.
And maybe he's could have done it when I was at the Fringe, I'm not sure.
I don't think he can.
Anyway, I've been a bit complacent.
Life on the road.
And it's fucking, I need to get it done.
But if you're going to spend fucking £300 plus on a passport, it's fucking I need to get it done but if you're going to spend
fucking 300 pound plus
on a passport
make it fucking waterproof
like
a lot of things
that aren't waterproof
yeah
travel document
do you remember the first time
you went to Australia
and you found waterproof money
and you were like
why is this not everywhere
like
how is the rest of the world
just seeing them doing that
and going
ah
like Australia's but then also to Australia how is Australia I love the book. How is the rest of the world just seeing them doing that and going, ah.
Like, Australia's ahead in that sense.
But then also, to Australia, how is Australia not watched what the rest of the world has done on gay marriage and not gone.
It's so weird.
It's so weird how ahead that country is.
In so many parts.
No, I think Australia used to be.
I think we used to think Australia was ahead in the world. But when I visit now, we're saying that we all go to the metropolises.
We all go to the metropolises.
We all go to Melbourne and Sydney who are really progressive. Maybe the
countryside is like... I've never been out
of the old mining communities.
I think that's where the problem lies.
Australia, I think we used to think of as very liberal
because they had a female
Prime Minister who was single
and also openly an atheist.
And it was like, holy shit
you didn't need to pretend to have
a belief you did to win the vote
But do you think the mullet population is bigger than we think?
The mullet population?
The mullet population of Australia
Yeah, clearly, I think that's
and you're experiencing that everywhere in the world
like, the left wing were in charge for too long
and now it's the right turn for a while
and we're like, oh balls
we probably should have legalised that before before, because we've wing were in charge for too long and now it's the right turn for a while and we're like oh balls we
probably should have legalized that before before because we've because i'm telling you we've got
several more years of right wing government before the left it always it's a fucking pendulum
it swings because everyone wants change yeah everyone's changed so we'll live in a fucking
right wing thing we'll watch them you know hopefully doing a good job like you deal
with where you go don't want them to win but they have dude um also speaking of australians and
driving i tell you who i'm glad doesn't drive nick cody not because i don't think he would be
wouldn't be a good driver he always on the beer no just because nick c Cody is... You know how angry I am most of the time
and the impatience I have.
That's why me and Nick Cody get on so well.
Oh, fuck yeah.
Me and Nick Cody...
I think he'd have really creative road rage, though.
I'd love to hear his insults when he's at the wheel.
I think that would be an entertaining drive.
Oh, I don't think there would be any creativity towards it.
Because Nick would be so focused on driving
that it would
just be nick is because my road rage stops i've never rolled down a window for road rage right
nick would take his seat belt off for road rage i'll tell you about me made craig opening the
fucking guy's door no i opened the guys so he was in a van i can't remember what happened it was
something about like the guy like i think craig was, like, up his arse and the thing,
so the guy slowed down at, like, five mile an hour
and just crept.
So every time Craig went to overtake him in the van,
he started speeding up again to get away,
and he just messed, like,
and fucking Craig's a big dude, man.
Like, you can fuck with him.
You just don't.
Where's your fucking rearview mirror?
Have a look what you're fucking messing with.
And then they pulled up at the traffic lights.
It was fucking red light, and Craig pulled up to the traffic lights. It was a fucking red light.
And Craig pulled up to the other side of him
and just wound his window down.
He's shouting at him,
knocking on the fucking thing for him
to wind his window down.
And this fucking guy's trying to act like it's not happening.
And he just opened his door
and he started fucking shouting at him
from his van through his door.
And the guy fucking sped off
fucking through the red lights.
People slamming their brakes on at the crossroads.
This dude fucking flew off with a door
flapping, one of my favourite things
it was weird that
oh yeah, it happened the other day, I can't remember where
we were driving from but I was driving
and I think what happened
was
I was probably, I'll admit
now, I was probably in the wrong at the time
I think, I'd done everything fine but I think I hadn admit now, I was probably in the wrong at the time. I think I'd done everything fine,
but I think I hadn't indicated that I was
coming off left on the roundabout.
But that's because
the guy that was in the lane behind me,
I didn't cut him off. He was literally following
the car. I didn't indicate off
left, but I was in the lane for going
left. I didn't cut across any lane.
Fair enough, I did need to
indicate left, but he honked three
times one honk or if he just flashed me i would have been like oh yeah sorry i forgot but he went
and i'm like right no so obviously window down middle finger there's your fucking dinner have
that and uh just in the rear view mirror just the whole time he was like, pull over, pull over.
And I'm like, I'm not pulling over for your safety, right?
It's not, I don't think I could kick your ass.
But if you think for a second you're getting out of this car
and this car is going to watch you.
And he just kept following us and following us and following us.
And you were just like, please don't get me into a fight.
And I'm like, I'm trying now to
is this not the day
where I totally hung over
was it after Norwich
yeah
I was like
oh
no no
it wasn't after Norwich
it was
was it on the way to Warwick
because I remember
there was a day
where I was rough as fuck
oh yeah
it might have been actually
yeah
I'm gonna be in a fight
alright
what do we know
it started fucking bad
it was just like a 50
it was a 55 year old man
like trying to start a fight
with
two
regular gym goers
and
like
I probably wouldn't hurt him
probably just put him in the boot
you bought a bar collar
man
that is one of the fucking
can you just take his keys
and throw them into the fucking
farmer's field or something
just something
fucking properly annoying
that doesn't hurt him
but like oh yeah that would be just bullies him yeah that would be good yeah that would be great Farmer's Field or something Just something fucking Annoying That doesn't hurt him But like
Oh yeah that would be
Just bullies him
Yeah
That would be good
Yeah that would be great
You throw his keys
In the fucking woods
Go
Go and take the
Take
Make him just
Like threaten him
And make him take
All of the
Fucking
Metal dusties
Off his car
Just watch the tires
Deflate
Just fucking Rev the engine And grind the gears the fucking metal dusties off his car. Just watch the tires deflate.
Just fucking rev the engine and grain the gears.
Just make him sit in the
lay-by and just put his foot down on
the accelerator so he just runs out of gas.
Just make him sit there.
He's like, can I stop now? I'm like, no, no, no.
You were a dick. I was also
a dick, right? But I wasn't, you know.
I didn't chase you down and threaten you. I gave you a middle finger. I was also a dick, right, but I wasn't, you know. I didn't chase you down and threaten
you. I gave you a middle finger. I deserved
the honk. You deserved the middle finger.
We both won there.
You're the one that wanted this fight, okay?
We did the nice thing. We stopped you
getting into the fight, which you would have lost,
but you do need to be punished socially.
My mum's got one of the fucking craziest
stories. It's not her. It happened to her, but
like, mum works in the UN so she's
obviously travelling around doing conferences
around the world and this is one of the
reasons why I won't
gig in Russia
that and a multitude of other reasons that they
terrify me but
there was, they were in like a
some part of Russia, it was rural
like I think they'd gone to Moscow
but then there was another bit,
and there was an airport somewhere.
And just one of her friends was driving down
a road towards the airport.
And it's a rural road.
It's quite early in the morning.
And this car pulls up.
Oh, maybe it was late at night
because it was the headlights.
Yeah, so the car behind it,
the car keeps flashing, flashing, flashing.
So it eventually pulls over, and just these two big russian guys come out and they go give us your wallet your keys and your passport and he's like are you kidding they're like
this is our road give us the wallet your keys and your passport and he's like can i keep the
passport right you can take the car you can take the wallet but like i'm just walking please can i
just have the passport it's like all right okay and they take the car but like i'm just walking please can i just have the passport it's like
all right okay and they take the car and they drive away and he's just walking down it's like
six miles still to the airport it's just like they've got his phone as well there's nothing
he can do he's just walking down there and he sees two lights coming up the road and they pull over
and two massive russian guys get out and they go give us your wallet and your phone. He's like, I've just been through this.
I've literally just
gone through this.
They took my car and he's like,
he's trying to stay strong, not show weakness.
And they're like, hold on,
somebody stole your car on this road.
And he's like, yeah. How long ago? He's like,
about 45 minutes ago. Well, where did they go?
And he points back down the road.
They're like, stay here.
And they speed off.
And he's just sat there for two hours.
Just passport.
He's missed his flight.
There's nothing he can do.
He's just sat on the side of the road.
Hearing wolves howling in the background.
And then two headlights start coming down the road behind him.
And it's his rental car and the other car.
And the second of the Russian guy gets out of the car. He goes, is this your car? And he goes, yeah, that's his rental car and the other car right and one of the big the second of the Russian guy
gets out of the car
he goes
is this your car
and he goes
yeah that's the rental
and they give him the keys
give him his wallet
give him his phone
and they open up the boot
to their car
and they go
and were these the two guys
that stole it
and it's just two gagged Russians
and he goes
yeah that's
and he just goes
yeah that's them
and they go
go to the airport
and never come back
La la la la la
No honour amongst thieves
Aye
No that is honour amongst thieves
That's dishonour amongst thieves
Getting retribution
Aye
No
Because they were like
On their patch
If there was honour amongst thieves
Aye
One of them had no honour
Aye
Is that a true story then?
I mean it's like
Because it reeks of folklore.
It does reek of folklore,
but it was told to me by my mum,
and she was told...
It's a bedtime story.
While we were in Russia.
Did you see it?
Aye.
So where have we been?
Because we couldn't remember
where we were doing the last podcast
because we were so discombobulated and confused.
Because in the space of five countries i've
had three hours sleep do you know that because i'm because i missed that one night um i have been
to libyana where i woke up oh let's talk about oh yeah hold on hold on let's actually work out
where we were so we must have recorded the podcast in bratislava is where we were. It was after the gig. We were on the bed
drinking the wine.
So after Bratislava,
we went to
Belgrade.
The lovely and terrifying as always Belgrade.
Also,
a big thank you
to the people in Belgrade.
There was that lovely girl who, by the way,
was the first winner of the Who Chose Juice shirt. She literally was not expecting it in Belgrade there was that lovely girl who by the way was the first winner of the Who Choose Juice shirt
yay
she literally
was not expecting it in Belgrade
because we'd not been there
for two years
it was one place
where we absolutely
did not expect
to have podcast listeners
but she was the first one
that came up to us
she was like
I choose juice
it was literally
the first audience member
we spoke to
after putting it out
on the podcast
so it went away
we released the podcast
that day
so she won the first
Who Choose Juice shirt
and then gave us
a lovely gift
of some grape wine
grape brandy
yeah grape brandy
which we're going to save
for when we are in Amsterdam
Amsterdam
we'll sell that
so thank you
genuinely thank you
to everyone in Belgrade
thank you for the muggle socks
to the fan in
Ljubljana
fan in Ljubljana
we are loving
getting gifts
of fans by the way
so
and it's an awful thing
to ask for
but just a thank you to everyone that has,
because every single one of them has made us laugh.
I'm not asking, but I'm saying I fucking love it.
All we're telling you is,
we remember who brought us gifts,
and we talk to them longer.
And thank you to everybody who brought us the gift of weed.
Aye, aye.
So in Ljubljana, the guy who was like,
I listened to the podcast, and I was like,
all right, okay, I'll give you,
and you've given us a muggle.
He didn't say who's juice, but I was like, you did give us muggle socks. And he was like, I listen to the podcast. And I was like, all right, OK, I'll give you. And you've given us a muggle. He didn't say who's juice.
But I was like, you did give us muggle socks.
And he's like, I've not listened to last week's podcast.
And I was like, I feel it would be shitty if you brought us this gift.
And I don't give you a gift in return.
So he got the second one.
So there's two left.
Nobody in Cluj.
And nobody in Zagreb listens to the podcast.
At all?
No.
Despite having quite a lot of return fans.
Oh, yeah, too.
The places where we have some of the biggest audiences.
Maybe they're not interested.
Maybe podcasts haven't caught on yet.
Just like gay marriage.
As well, while we're mentioning,
we've got a few listeners from the European tour
on our podcast.
Nick Cody and Mickey Bartlett
are going to be following our footsteps in a month's time.
Yes, yes.
So, annoyingly, Zagreb... Oh annoyingly, if you are in Belgrade, Nick Cody and Mickey Bartlett are going to be there next month.
We speak about Nick Cody all the time on the podcast.
He is, to both of us, genuinely one of the best working comedians.
He is hysterical.
I've watched his show.
I've watched it five days in a row when I was in Brisbane just because I enjoy his stand-up that much uh Mickey Bartlett is also a phenomenal
comedian he's doing at the support go see them there and they are also in Cluj at next month
they're both killers and they're coming around Europe and I think it may be that I mean I think
they've done the occasional gig in Europe yeah but this is their first European tour, isn't it?
I think, yeah.
Cody's done his solo show in Belgrade before,
but he's doing a bit more,
so definitely get involved in that.
Because the more famous Nick Cody gets in these places
and the more famous I get in these places,
I mean, in five years' time,
we can finally do the Dream Tour,
which will just be called,
we'll just call it On The Road or something.
Like a road show where it's just a bunch of us going. A that's the one dream we want to eventually do in europe is one year i just
won't write a new show but once i get to my 15th one i'll take a year off of comedians yeah and
we'll mix it we'll mix it up as well you know and we'll get five comedians on the road and we'll you
know be us two and then each week we'll get three new comedians on. We'll get, like, you know, Andrew Stanley, Gareth Wong.
All right, maybe.
Ljubljana.
So in Ljubljana,
we have been to Ljubljana for the past three years on tour.
This is my fourth.
This is my fourth. This is the fourth year.
It's always been one of our favourite gigs.
It's always, it's just an absolute joy there.
We've stayed in the same fucking hotel every year,
and this year we had,
we didn't need to get picked up until the next day, until like 11.
It was Saturday night.
We got picked up at 11.
The next two days are four o'clock, so there's not much we can fucking do the next two nights.
So let's go and have a drink.
Have a drink.
So we asked the audience, where's a good drink?
And they keep saying a place called Metal Cova.
Which is like a squat.
It used to be a prison.
Yeah, it's a squat.
It used to be a prison.
And I'm like, and what bar there?
And they're like, we can't.
What bar should we meet you in?
And they're like, no, no, you don't meet in bars.
You just go to Metalkova.
And I'm like, be more specific.
There's obviously a bar.
It's Army Barracks.
Yeah.
Like, is that a prison?
Well, it was Army Barracks, and then it was a prison.
And you're like, oh, yeah, OK.
Now it's a night out.
Yeah.
So we go there. And the thing that annoyed us most, it's a night out yeah so we uh go there and it's the thing that
annoyed us most it's literally five minutes from the hotel we've stayed in for the past four
fucking years and we've just missed this place it's just down the road like we fell out a hotel
down the road that we thought it was on going well this is dead turned a corner and went oh this must
be it and it was like ross kemp on gangs that there's just people Roskamp on gangs
but the nicest people
in the world.
With bandanas on their mouths
and shit
and like fucking just
Everyone is drinking outside.
There's a climbing frame
that everyone hangs on
and there's not
there's a club there
which plays music
but the other bars
aren't really bars.
They're kind of just like
someone's house
where they're serving booze.
Plastic cups
with like wine
and spirits in
and like
cheap as fuck
cheap as fuck
two glasses of wine
right
two glasses of wine
red wine
and I mean
big glasses of red wine
there's no measurements
in Europe
because they're just
plastic cups
they're just plastic cups
four euros
like half a pint really
four euros
for half a pint
of fucking wine
I went in
with ten euros
and I was like
I'll get two glasses
of wine
and two shots.
This is going to be like,
you know,
if that was in Iceland,
it'd be fucking 25 euros.
Yeah, Sweden.
Oh, but there,
she was like,
yeah, here's your change.
And I'm like,
change?
For four drinks?
You fucking,
and these are big shots.
And then we're,
some of the,
they were double shots
because,
like,
it was catching me off guard
when I was going to shoot it
and I needed to do a second gulp
yeah
oh that second gulp's naughty
because like
a bit stays in your mouth
and one of the
we met some fans there
we also met
one of our fans
works in a hostel there
so she had met
like there was two
English people there
there was also a guy
from Brazil
and a guy from Argentina
and we were hanging around
with them
Austin from Argentina
not to be mistaken from from Argentina, from Austin.
Okay, well it wasn't worth it.
We, at one point she goes, do you want any weed?
And I was like, oh yeah, I'd love some weed.
And she goes, just go outside.
And we go outside and the guy's like, do you want weed?
And I'm like, what are you waiting for us?
He's like, no. He's like, how much? He's like do you want wheat and I'm like what are you waiting for us he's like no
you know how much
it was like
10 pound a gram
10 euros per gram
yeah
10 euros per gram
now he's stocked up
he doesn't have flights
for like
all of it
so we're just sitting there
in a fucking
park
well there was
the bit where she was like
hey
because we heard about
the prison
and she was like
oh the hostel
where I'm at
is an old prison
do you want to
come see it
so we went in
it's got like
these big fucking
metal gates
like you would
expect in a prison
and then we went
to the dungeons
downstairs
and if anyone's
followed on my
Instagram and my
Snapchat stories
we went down
into the dungeon
and there was
just a moment
where I'm in
what I still
consider Eastern
Europe even though
they offended
when you call it
Eastern Europe
it's still fucking
too far east for
my liking.
The graffiti on the walls says Eastern Europe.
In Bratislava,
it's nice to be in Eastern Europe. They're like,
we're not Eastern Europe. I'm like, you're east of Scotland.
Anywhere where you look at the high-rise
buildings and think, I could have made that.
You're in Eastern Europe.
Look, if I don't understand
the graffiti, like if the graffiti you have on your walls
Reminds me of a Call of Duty game
You're Eastern Europe
If all of the health and safety legislation is just one line saying
Watch what you're doing
You're Eastern Europe
If your idea of cooking a steak
Is running a fucking lighter
Under it for 30 seconds
And calling that medium rare
You're Eastern Europe If every time I do a shot of what you've done a fucking lighter under it for 30 seconds and calling that medium rare you're eastern europe
okay if every time i do a shot of what you've done i could also use it to take the fucking paint
off of my car but i don't need to because none of the cars have paint on it you're eastern europe
and we love you you're the best if you say vodka with a w and don't sound like you've got a speech
impediment yeah eastern. Eastern Europe.
I do love, and I know they're not all Eastern Europe.
It's the same thing.
We're so hypocritical because that's like, I'll snap at these people if they call me British or English.
I'll be like, no, I'm Scottish.
I'm doing the exact same thing.
It's ignorant meets ignorance.
You know what I find funny about it in Serbia as well, and I mentioned this day, is there's certain, like, cultures where I think they're hard.
Like,
I think Geordies are hard people,
especially Ashton,
like,
in Northumberland.
That's a hard race of people,
right? You go to Glasgow,
and they're hard people,
like,
a battle horn.
Oh,
and Edinburgh.
Hard from all the violin lessons.
Yeah,
they've just got calluses
on their fingers
from just playing
too much fucking jazz piano.
And then you get to Serbia, and you're like,
oh, that's what hard looks like.
Oh, man.
You've like...
And it's not an insult, like,
because, like, the women in these countries as well,
and some of the men, are very, very attractive people,
but I'm just like, you all sharpen your fucking knives with your teeth
what was it you said that all look like
GTA villains yeah they all look like people
from the fourth Grand Theft Auto game
like remember Nico
I'm just like
and they laugh at that they're just like
yeah
they're all hard looking
oh there was a guy last night
so we're in what I consider Eastern Europe
with these hard-looking
motherfuckers
who are actually
fucking sweet people
but like
look like they've
seen some things
right
because they have
and we ended up
in a hostel
that used to be
a prison
in its dungeon
and I just felt
like this was
like so many
layers of like
get the fuck
out of there
yeah
and we're just
she's like
we're just taking
Snapchat stories
she's like do you want to come to a place where police don't come and hang out in a little
prison thing we're like yeah of course what's the worst thing can happen we've left our passports
at home that's fine isn't it and is there no signal down there perfect that's exactly where
we'll go yeah i was like fuck imagine like the door clinks and we get locked in and he went I know there's no wifi millennial oh that was the other thing
that
this was
there was a point
that night
where we were being knobs
oh but sorry
just while we're on
the Eastern Europe thing
Tricluge
Transylvania last night
I do my thing
when I talk about
fucking orange juice
with pulp in it
spoiler alert
I don't like pulp
in orange juice
it's the only time
I ever talk to an audience member and I spoke to a guy called florian and it took me
a while to get his name right i'm probably still saying it wrong and after the show we do hugs
after the show and uh he comes up and he goes to shake the hand now here's my rule if a girl ever
goes to shake my hand i'll shake her hand i'll not force the hug sort of thing yeah right i'm
just like right you've but with big men i'm like you i'll hug come on we get a hug it doesn't feel
like it's been intrusive if you're there so if you're the submissive i'll hug female fans if
they open their arms i'll go yep i'm 100 in but if a guy if a girl's like here's my hand i'm like
right i'll i'll let you but if a guy if you're a guy i'm hugging you i know that's probably wrong
but you've seen the show.
You've waited in the queue.
You want to meet me.
We can fucking hug.
And this guy was flooring.
I was like, hey, flooring.
He's like, we don't do hugs here.
And I'm like, well, I'm about to bring some British culture over to you.
And he was like, ah.
And we hugged and we're laughing away.
And he was like, it's funny when you talk to me.
I'm glad you didn't make too much fun.
I'm like, oh, you know, I don't know if it's all audience members.
And he's like, oh, it's funny because I do have a gun.
And then I went, ha!
And his wife laughed.
And she was like, oh, he doesn't.
And I jokingly went, but he does though.
And she went, yeah, he does.
So he was joking about using his gun on you.
And you had to go, I do have a gun.
Yeah, but I was joking about using it
on you but you do have one though yeah i do have one yeah of course i do is that a hunting one
sure sure not on me yeah but it's on you well it's in the car it's in the glove box i can go get it
but i'm not gonna use it yeah yeah i could get it but i won't all right should we just do over shake hands so uh when we're we're very high and very drunk and just
like that bit that metal cova in libiana with the second i walked in there i was so glad we went
because that is exactly the type of place i would normally hate like i you know i'm i've never been
i'm looking around this is all very hard eastern europe. They're all lovely, but I've just got my little bit of like,
uh-oh, something could go wrong here.
We eventually get,
but I loved it.
I really did.
I can't wait to go back.
I loved how,
because normally I would dislike a place,
like if you're in a bar
and people start coming up and chatting to you.
It happened when we were in Dublin
and you were with some friends
and just a random couple of people,
muggles,
pure, like pure fucking muggles come up.
I mean,
oh, can we sit with you guys?
I'm like,
I think no,
like I think I actually said no,
didn't I?
This is just to clarify,
this isn't the guy,
the fan that bought us drinks.
No,
there hadn't been a gig.
No,
you know,
you're not,
you're thinking.
It was the one that asked if I was a DJ.
No,
no,
you're thinking of Aberdeen.
Aberdeen?
Yeah.
Oh yeah,
yeah,
well,
sorry.
Because you nearly,
because what that's,
there was that lovely guy.
Oh yeah,
he was great,
he was someone from the audience
yeah
we met them afterwards
we let them into our dynamic
this was
sorry Aberdeen
where they come up
and start asking like
oh what are you doing up here
are you a DJ
are you like
and just start like
interview journalist questions
that were fucking really weird
yeah they joined our table
with our friends
and they were like
we're twins
and we're like
that's so obviously a lie
and we
but you're doing it to be quirky
yeah and then they were like oh can we join you after being like fucking weird and we're like that's so obviously a lie and we but you're doing it to be quirky yeah and
then they were like oh can we join you after being like fucking weird and we're like no we're hanging
out with friends 100 not like swinging a miss and to clarify these weren't people who are the show
just people bars can we join you no we came to hang out with friends so in like in that kind of
thing like if if people are just intrusive, like, non-show related, we love, like, people coming up after the shows,
like,
I'm not saying that at all,
but when you're in a place
and people are intrusive
and they come up
and just try and force themselves on you,
I find it off-putting,
but in that place,
it felt like so the norm
and it felt like
there wasn't anyone's shit there.
No.
So,
like,
when people come up
and start chatting to you,
you're like,
oh,
fucking sweet.
I had a fucking lovely conversation
with a guy who, top of a climbing frame, top of a climbing frame, he's like, where are you from?, you're like, oh, fucking sweet. I had a fucking lovely conversation with a guy who was from...
Top of a climbing frame.
Top of a climbing frame.
He's like, where are you from?
And we're like,
you know, from Scotland and England.
We chat away for a bit,
then we meet the fans
that we were going to meet there.
Now, you can say that,
that we loved it
and there was no bad guys there.
The point I wanted to get on to,
I guess it's about two in the morning,
you and I are very, very high
and very, very drunk.
And I can tell we're very, very high
because it's getting to the point
where the locals that we're hanging out with
have stopped listening to us
because we're just going into our sort of secret language
where I understand everything you say.
We understand whenever you...
It's all in jokes that we've developed
over six weeks on tour.
A lot of in jokes are in there,
but also we're talking fast.
We're cutting each other off
because we know the joke
that's coming up
we're being silly
billies
silly gooses
just fun with
friends
geese
geese
and so we were
hanging out with
three girls and
two guys
and the three
girls were very
very attractive
but you and me
are just fucking
sitting there
I'm high and
drunk
they've heard all my engagement stories so they know to back the fuck off they're very active but you and me are just fucking sitting there right i'm i'm high and drunk and i'm not
they've heard all my engagement stories so they know to back the fuck off they're very
and these two slovenian guys and i knew what they were doing the second they came over
they saw us giggling away like fucking idiots it was like fucking textbook neil strauss shit
they were absolutely trying to game they came in and they started talking to the Slovenian girls in Slovenian.
They clearly tried to insult us, but we weren't paying attention.
And they were insulting us in Slovenian.
And the girl went, oh, you're English.
And I was like, well, he's English.
I'm Scottish.
So what are you doing here?
We're like, we're comedians.
And they clearly tried to make a joke
in Slovenian
that neither of the girls
laughed at.
And I was like,
oh, you want to have
a game of
we'll insult you
in our own language,
will we?
You roasted them
to the left.
Oh, Jesus.
They didn't understand
a fucking word of it.
Didn't understand a word,
because they didn't,
they clearly didn't have
the chemistry
that we have together.
Because we,
every time you insulted them, I would laugh their ass off. off and they just could they would try and come back and i would
just laugh over the top of them say something that they wouldn't understand and then even to the point
where they like i would say certain things and it would get a laugh and you could just see them and
it was oh it was such a it was such a fucking joyous moment just watching them after 10 minutes
and they'd be saying stuff no reaction and then they'd give up
and walk away
oh so good
yeah what was it
yeah
one of them
one of them
looked like a Q-tip
that was having chemo
it was just this
tall gone white guy
I wish
I wish I could remember
fucking what we'd say
because that was
I mean we're in good form
that night anyway
it was if we do say so ourselves if we do say so ourselves we fucking pull off a belt of that night
i think that was one of my favorite nights out on tour and i want to recommend that place as well
as a place for people to go right what's it called libyana if you go to libya the place is called
metal cova it is a street you're going to walk down a street that, as is most places in Eastern Europe, it's roadworks.
It's a bit like Christiania
in Copenhagen. Yeah. You're going to walk in
there and it's going to be a massive culture shock
because it was to me, I was like, holy fuck, I'm so out of my
depth. This seems scary. And the second
you talk to one person and the bartender
smiles at you, you're like, this place is
the fucking best. But to be fair,
we did ask the girl. We were like, so
this seems like a really cool place
there must be no fights here ever she's like well you know the police had to come yesterday because
somebody was throwing bombs yeah she did so flippantly so flippantly she was like yes small
bombs not like heart bombs but you know loud bombs i'm like oh the worst yeah the the finest The worst Like fireworks Yeah The finest of all bombs But still Let's not be mistaken here
Bombs
Yes
And then
We haven't
We haven't seen much
Of the last couple of places
We were
I mean we hung out
With Nino and Natasha
In Zagreb
But to be fair
We have seen a lot of Croatia
In the past couple of years
Yeah
And we still got to hang out
With them
Which is always a joy
And we're yet to see much
Because we'll go to Transylvania
And
I want to go to the Salt Nine,
I want to go to Brandcastle,
but we'll fucking have any time,
we'll get there late.
I think next year we'll kind of,
we'll prioritise that we get a decent,
not a day off,
but like a late flight in Cluj.
But even the best one is,
tonight we are in Sofia,
in Bulgaria.
First time here as well.
Tomorrow is a travel day.
We're going to Copenhagen.
And here's how...
I don't know if this is stupid.
We'll know tomorrow.
Our flight gets in at like 4pm.
And we obviously, it's the day off, we want to go to Kristiania.
Which is a place in Copenhagen where the police disagree not to go.
They just sell joints there.
The only law is don't take photos.
Don't take photos.
They just sell weed there. You can go't take photos don't take photos they just sell
wait there
you can go there
it's very good wait
there's a lot of
lovely fucking
restaurants
it's like celebrity
endorsed like Ice Cube
and stuff like that
Lady Gaga
been there
they'll go and do
gigs there
so I want to go there
and here's
I don't know if this
is experience
but here I'm like
oh we land at
we land at four
I wonder if the
illegal drug sellers
stop selling drugs
at five
that's a genuine thought it's a genuine thought and it's a Tuesday I feel like it's a Tuesday I wonder if the illegal drug sellers stop selling drugs at five.
That's a genuine thought.
It's a J-with-O.
It's a Tuesday.
I feel like it's a Tuesday, it's another weekend.
Because we'll get to the hotel at five,
I'll probably need to shower,
probably not going to get there until six.
Do they work nine till five?
Is it?
What a way to make a living.
Look, I'm genuinely worried.
And I know it's so stupid.
I know the second week. You've got a bad business model genuinely and I know it's so I know the second
you've got a bad business model
for selling weed
I know I know the second
just selling it when people are at work
I know the second we get there tomorrow
we'll get there at seven
and they'll be selling weed
and they'll be like
oh yeah obviously
obviously it's like metal cover
of course it is
of course there's bars in there
yeah because when
when we asked the guy
the guy that came up
and started talking
about the climbing frame
that's when it closed
he seemed so confused.
Oh, yeah.
We're like, how can you – why would it close the climbing frame?
He's like, so, yeah, so what time do these bars close?
He's like, they're people's kitchens.
Like, they close when people leave.
It's just an ongoing thing.
You just go and hang out there and it's a squat.
Speaking of, let's get into the next couple of true dates But again, we just have to do this
Because we mean these things
To everyone in Ljubljana, Zagreb
And Cluj
They're just so good
They're just fucking excellent gigs

So please...
We will be joined on the podcast by
Barry Casanola and Rich Massara
and
and Snunky
and
Snunky the snake monkey
he's fucking
just pulled out
a late
Ryan Sponge Cullen
one of our friends
he was
hold on
why would we call him
Sponge Cullen
we'll call him Sponge
because we went
this is when we first met him
wasn't it
we went to
Cork Independence Festival
where we turned up
with no luggage,
not even hand luggage.
We flew without hand luggage
that day,
walking through like
we were up to something.
And we got there
and they've already put a tent up
and he gives us his airbed
out of his tent.
Yeah.
There's two of us
and one of him.
Because he's a good guy.
Good guy.
So his first meeting,
there's the airbed.
But his tent had a leak
and it had rained through the night.
There was a big puddle in his bed.
And his tent was on a hill.
So just naturally during the night when he's fucked,
he's rolled down to the bottom of his tent.
And in the morning, the puddle was gone.
And he absorbed all of it.
He absorbed all of it.
Like he climbed into a puddle and then woke up in a dry tent, wet.
Wet through.
So we call him Sponge Cull.
But we also call him Snanky because...
Because he's a snake.
He's a snake.
A friend of ours, who's actually a comedian, Abiglayah Schwam, I'll never get to pronounce
that surname properly.
Schwam?
Abiglayah.
Abiglayah.
Started texting us in our WhatsApp from his phone, just going, hey, it's Abiglayah, hope
you're all well.
And there's like 10 of us in this WhatsApp.
But we're like
this WhatsApp group
as much as I love Abbie
has got so much
classified information
oh yeah
like you cannot
go into work
like you can't
that is the most
classified WhatsApp group
in the world
that you just can't
because so much of it
is easy to take out of context
everyone's true class
come on
yeah
because it's
fucking 10 comedians
so it's just
the worst fucking jokes
the worst things
we've ever said
about each other
to each other
about other comedians
sometimes we go as harsh
as possible
to try and like
it's very unshockable
yeah
we'll try and shock each other
so we're trying to shock each other
because we know
it's a safe space
it's just the thought
of someone else
saying any of that
like out of the context
especially a friend
so we've always called him
snake
I was there
I kicked him out
immediately
and I was like
what a snake cunt
giving his fucking
whatsapp to somebody else
so we called him snake
and then when we were
in Ibiza
and we were having
lots of drinks
touch his nose
we'd done pills
and if you've ever
done ecstasy
you'll understand
that sometimes
your face goes
a little bit gurney
and we're out and Ryan was having the time of his life dancing.
He has a big grin on his face.
Cheeky little monkey.
Big grin.
Cheeky little monkey.
So we just made it.
He's a snake.
Snunky.
Snake monkey.
Uncle Snunky.
Uncle Snunky.
Uncle Snunky.
Sponge Cullen.
And he's, yeah, we'll have him on the podcast.
We'll talk about much more.
Also, follow Cullen's Instagram and Snapchat because he is
one of the best
yeah Ryan Colin
on Instagram
is so
so fucking funny
oh when he
documented the
fucking storm
it was like
storm Brian
come from Dublin
it wasn't Brian
it was
Ophelia
yeah Ophelia
oh yeah
those common
those are close together
I got two
there's one called
Brian
one called Ophelia
so that was on
and he just did one
because he did a bunch
he did this video
diary of him
locked in the house
but every time
he looked out the window
it was just a vile day
it was on the news
and on the news
it went
check on your neighbours
so he paused it
and then zoomed in
on the check on your neighbours
and then the next
snapchat he's
hanging out the
window going
Malsy
Malcolm
you alright
you alright
mate
on my oldest
day
oh my god
I was fucking
dying
so he's gonna be
there as well
that's like
that's gonna be
such a good one
because it's
that's the last
minute thing for him
because he was
meant to be doing
a tour of America
tasting biscuits he's on the internet series good one because it's... That's the last minute thing for him because he was meant to be doing a tour of America tasting biscuits.
He's on the internet series Facts where it's like Irish people play soggy biscuit or whatever the fuck they do.
So he was doing an American tour.
But now he's going to join us in Amsterdam.
We're also going to have the king that is Barry Castagnola on the podcast.
And then also King Muggle himself, Rich Massara.
We've got three of the funniest people we
know making the i do think sunday's podcast is going to be probably a two-hour special it's
going to be pandemonium it's going to be utter chaos because we've also got that big bottle of
fucking booze that that uh great girl in um belgrade gave us to go through yes um so yeah
definitely tune into that one that'll be be utter chaos to our European fans.
I will try and keep everyone's accents in check,
but we will be incredibly high and incredibly drunk.
Rich Massara's accent, you're going to keep that in check?
Oh yeah, no, Rich Massara will be absolutely fine.
Even Barry, Barry will probably be fine.
But it's not going to be Harry.
He just mumbles, doesn't he?
All right.
We have talked too much, so we can only go on to dad jokes.
Have we talked too much?
Can we stick it to some muggles?
No, we've got to go meet Smelly Belly
Oh shit, yeah
Matthew Ellis is in Sofia
She consented though
Your dad's pubes are so long
He's braided a bit on the side
Which means he can pull them back
And he uses that bit
Like the little curtain bit for drapes
He draws his pubes?
No, no,
he braids them.
They're so long
they go down.
Like beads?
Aye.
You know those
bits there
that hold the curtains back
either side?
He braids bits of his pube
to hold them back.
And also
if he ever goes for a second wank
he calls it the encore.
So when he holds it back
what does he hook it on?
Has he got piercings
on either side of his groin?
Well, no, just his plukes.
His plukes?
That means zit in Scottish,
doesn't it?
Aye.
Right.
Your dad turned up
for his dinner lady shift
on a Saturday.
He just likes wearing the costume.
Your dad rides a motorbike,
but because they don't have seatbelts
he's glued a buttplug
to the seat
and rides in arseless chaps.
He's never came off.
No?
He's crashed it loads.
He also has come off it.
It's a vibrating buttplug.
He's came off it.
Aye.
On the last day of the old one pound coins,
your dad went and got rid of all of them
from his big protein tub at the strippers.
Your dad got thrown out of the zoo
for leaving lipstick marks on the screen of the monkey exhibit.
Your dad puts a towel around his waist,
takes off his jeans, puts his pyjamas on
and then removes the towel when he's getting changed on his own.
Every time your mum queefs, your dad gets the priest round to do an exorcism on her because he's convinced it's the ghost screams of all the sperm who didn't make it.
Your dad picks his nose and feeds it to babies and dogs.
Your dad is gluten intolerant, lactose intolerant, and immigrant intolerant,
but still loves a cheesy falafel
wrap.
Your dad found out that every pelican crossing
has that spinning thing underneath to indicate
the blind people went across, so now that's why he always
puts his chewing gum. What thing?
Do you not know about that? Underneath every pelican
crossing, like, you know, the box that you press
the button on,
walk, don't walk,
and then if there's
this little, like,
spinny cone,
that, like,
if you put your hand
in and if it,
you can feel the cone
spinning when it's
the green light.
Is there?
Yeah.
Nah, I know what this is.
No, no.
Nah, nah,
that doesn't exist.
That would be a great
way of delivering it.
By just, like,
slipping it in a dad joke.
Genuinely is there.
Genuinely.
You can't even check because we're in Sofia.
I'm not.
I'm absolutely under no circumstance.
You don't know about the spinning dial?
Because it doesn't exist.
I'm not falling for a fucking true lie.
Right, because I know that you're never going to be able to find out that this is true.
So, I'm going to ask somebody...
Oh, get all your fucking little fucking old team muggins to come fucking lie to me.
Get them to back me up.
Team muggins, send them, I don't know, put your phone on selfie mode, get an unfit and show them the disc.
Or Google it.
You're not going to Google it, are you?
No, because that counts as you winning.
I won anyway.
Your dad has written...
Does it count as me winning if I'm writing you don't look it up?
I mean, it's definitely half a victory.
Anyway, if everyone goes and checks on that, you'll probably find his dad's chewing gum.
Your dad has written a Muggins and Cream sexual fan fiction,
and I know it's him because he signs off with,
definitely not Kev, and let her smell exactly like his perfume.
Yeah, what does that do?
Your dad reads
self-help books
out loud on the bus
and the passengers
always tell him
to keep his eye on the road
your dad lost his virginity
on a washing machine
sorry
to a washing machine
dry load
right
she was on a menstrual cycle
quick wash your dad watches Japanese porn
Where the fannies are pixelated
Your dad ties his own
He squints when he's watching it
To try and make the pixels disappear
But he just looks like he's
He's racist
Your dad ties his own shoes together
And then falls over
So he can yell
Oh guys
Not this again
Loudly in public
so people think he has friends.
Your dad plays
Dot to Dot with his back knee in the mirror.
Your dad masturbates
in wind tunnels.
Your dad has
one Celtic slip-by and one Ranger slip-by because he can't
decide.
Your dad is the lead singer in a Limp Bizkit tribute band
where he cries all the way
through every song
and the band is called
Soggy Bizkit.
Your dad took a water pistol
to Auschwitz
to try and lighten the mood.
Oh no!
He wore his boob apron
in the Anfrank Museum.
Dad!
Dad, you can't do that
Dad that's
well
Dad I'm going to
have to have a word
with him
that's seriously
not a nice
His heart's in the
right place though
he's just trying to
cheer everyone up
because they're
going through a
tough time
Oh look
it's right
alright
it's a brutal
way to end the
podcast
We will see you
on

on Thursday

yeah we'll talk to you
when we're in Cuba
oh it's going to be
