Sloss and Humphries on the road!
Muggins and cream, creaming muggins, straight thuggin', living the dream
That's our intro
Fucking muggles!
Tickling the clit inside your head that makes you laugh
Woohoo!
Hahaha!
They said it can't be done!
Are we in the same seats?
That's hack
Ah, muggles!
Accidental rim job in the park
Kiss kiss kiss
Or am I just being cynical?
Just muggled it up on fucking Mugglepedia
Where have you been since 9-11?
I don't want no cream.
A cream is a guy that can't get no milk from me.
Hi, Milk.
Hi, mate. How's it going?
I'm here without my cream.
This is Muggins No Cream.
Elliot, bad boy in white, I fight a steal.
Oh, sorry, I was mid-tea.
Back on the podcast.
When was the last time you were on the podcast, Elliot?
Was it the New York trip?
Yeah.
Did we do another Fitcast since then?
No, we did a Fitcast before that.
Yeah, all right.
So it's been a good six months.
A lot's went on.
Yeah, I haven't seen you since New York.
So I've been in Australia for 10 weeks,
which any regular listeners may know,
where I was largely healthy and living well
and going to bed early and getting up and going for runs
and watching the football.
And then Easter weekend hit,
and I'd done 10 weeks of drinking
in the space of a week and a half.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
I spoiled it.
I have done.
The wheels come off the bus.
I've done fuck all since you've been away.
No, you have.
You've been out of the tube.
Oh, I went out of the tube.
I learned to snowboard. You went out of the tube festival. 10 weeks worth of drinking atitude oh I went to Altitude I learned to snowboard
you went to Altitude Festival
10 weeks worth of drinking
at Altitude
I want to hear about that
because you said to me
because you went back
to Muay Thai
last week
yeah
this week
and it's the first time
you've done anything
since I saw you in New York
so bear in mind
in New York guys
we were just like
the way we approached
New York was
right we're going to
get fit after this
so we're having
mountains of pancakes
fucking cigarettes
coming out of them
waffles
we just lived like
beer and anything
we lived like
obese New Yorkers
it was great
it's pretty much
how we lived
beer for breakfast
it was a good time
it was great
it was a fucking good time
but it was like
right after this,
you know how you do that?
Yeah.
Start on Monday.
Diet starts on Monday.
All right,
new year,
new me.
Like,
you make a goal.
So I kind of stuck to main
and you just went,
nah.
Fuck that.
I'd been to training a few times
but I did not follow any diet.
So I was going,
I was training a bit
and I was doing a few weights
but I would do the weights
and then I'd go home
and I'd go, why don't I just eat what I want?
Yeah, but you don't look any different
because you're how old, 23?
22.
22, so you've got metabolism on your side.
I'm gonna be in trouble in my olden age.
So this is where you are right now.
You're right in a fringe show.
Yeah.
And you're gonna go to the fringe.
Tell everyone what time your fringe show's on.
I'm on at 12.15
at Bannermans
free Fringe
every day
except the 19th
so just to reiterate
12.15pm
yeah
noon
yep
12.15 noon
yep
alright
tell me how you're
going to do that
here's my plan
alright
now bear in mind
remember this plan
for when it doesn't
happen guys
alright
I will bet you
100 quid
here and now
I stick to it
100 quid
100 quid
100 quid
actually
let's make it a tenner
no
I'll make a bet with you
I don't want to do
a money bet
I'd rather do
like if it's a bet
on a podcast
like think of an actual bet
but
in fact I'll bet you here and now,
if I stick to this plan during the fringe,
my name on this podcast has to be referred to as
Bad Boy Muay Thai Fighter and no longer Milk.
Well, you could be saying anything that just sticks
because it's not going to happen.
All right, okay.
So here's what I'm doing.
So at the moment, and I'm going to stick to it,
I want to be up about nine, have a bit of breakfast, all of that,
maybe go to the Pleasance gym, do some weights,
but then there's a Muay Thai gym in Edinburgh.
Do my show, smash the fuck out of my show every day,
and then go and go to Muay Thai at six in the evening and just do that.
I'm not going to book in too many late in lives or anything like that.
Anything.
Because that's the thing in Edinburgh that can push you out is doing a later show.
Right.
So the way I know this is plausible is because I've done it.
I've done that in Melbourne.
Like 2017 when I was saving up for the engagement ring.
Yeah.
I wasn't at the festival.
I had a job to do, which was my ring. Yeah. I wasn't at the festival. I had a job to do
which was my show.
Yeah.
In a specific time.
But as far as the festival
social aspect went,
I wasn't offered to do it.
I lived out of town.
I had a bicycle.
I would cycle in,
do my obligations,
cycle out,
I would come into the gym.
It is doable
but you're going to be
living in town
with your comedian friends.
I'm living with Jamali.
He's not.
Jamali.
He's quiet as fuck. He just sits there sad. Does he do a thing? Oh, fuck it. We've got to get Jamali he's not Jamali he's quiet as fuck
he just sits there sad
does his own thing
oh fucking we've got to get Jamali back on
yeah
he's back in a couple of weeks
he's still in New Zealand
I was hanging out with him
I was hanging out with him
in fucking Sydney
it was so funny
because he watched our Instagram story
of me
Gareth
and Daniel in the bath
so basically what happened
I'll fill everybody in
that's some white boy shit there.
I can't repeat what he said
when I was dropping the end box.
He was like,
you're not catching,
you're doing nothing.
You see black dudes here,
like,
if I was with a couple of my brothers from home
and I was like,
yo,
do you want to come get in a bath with me?
Bro,
he would like fucking do some exorcism on me.
He would take shit out of me.
I would be beaten.
And he'd then be right to.
He'd be like,
nah bruv,
we've got enough
to contest with.
That's some white boy shit.
Yeah,
it's funny right,
because,
because I went
and I hung around with him.
Every now and then,
I'll do something like,
fuck,
there was one time
living with him and archie
maddox i lived with him archie and jamali and edinburgh right two black guys and mixed race
not not me and uh one day they just fucking laughed because i was cooking chicken
they just laughed i'm not even joking i just cooked some chicken because you're doing a
chair no i was just cooking
my fucking chicken,
bruv.
I don't want,
because their thing is like,
oh,
we got their thing,
like,
you know,
season it,
put all of this shit on it.
I don't want to,
I don't want to die at 50
or fucking,
like,
no,
because have you ever seen
like the jerk seasoning
and all of that stuff?
It's just,
the salt content of it's insane.
Oh,
really?
Because that's why,
that's why people die at 50.
Because it's just full of
salt
and then
they're like
going
so Jamali
comes through
and he's like
yo Archie
Archie
come look
Archie comes
in
they both
laugh
and then
fuck off
to their
rooms
and it
took me
like a
year to
realise
what they
were laughing
at
they laughed
at me
because I
bought some ready chopped onions but I was like that's just convenient they laughed at me because I bought
some ready chopped
onions
aye
but I was like
that's just convenient
yeah
that was just
oh
it's just
different cultures
and what they bring
to the table
yeah
but I will
I'd love to get
them back on here
man
I'll fucking
crack this up
is that damn
white boy shit
that was funny though
because I
I'd
like it was the day Danny had recorded this show yeah so they were up and it's that time white boy shit that was funny though cuz I I damn like
it was the day Oh Danny had recorded the show yeah and so they like we're just
getting on it it was a bit of a celebration you know and a few people
came back Jimmy McGee Sean Glockman and I've come back my gaff yeah it was good
crowd was really good there Newcastle mattress on that just down on the
background in the middle of everyone chatting and I took the fucking weed
cookie well a cuz why I half in them and then I took a everyone chatting I took the fucking weed cookie well eh because we're like
halfing them
and then I took a full one
I was just saying
I'm just going to take a full one
I'm just going to
fucking make myself out
and then Jimmy was just saying
that's a fucking good boy
just fucking have yourself
a weed cookie
run yourself a bath
fucking chill
we'd go to bed
because I wasn't out that well
even though I was partying
I wasn't that well
so I did that
I think everyone started leaving
a fucking weed cookie
starts kicking in
I run myself a bath
next thing you know
fucking them two get in it
fucking not
quite what I
had in mind
I wiped
myself out
the other night
I went on
the little
dum-dum
club podcast
did Angel
so I went
down
they asked
us if I'd
come on it
I was a
punch drunk
on the weekend
I come up
on the train
go straight
to Angel
you took MDMA
before you
got on the train
nah nah I'll come up on the train I'll come up on the train I go straight to Angel. You took MDMA before you got on the train.
Nah, nah.
I come up on the train.
I come up on the train.
I see what you did there.
Good one.
I'm a bit rusty from the... I haven't spoken to me in a long time.
Rich as well,
this podcast,
I fucking jumped on it.
It's out there.
It's the little dum-dum club.
You can get it.
I think I say about three words
because the boat is on as the third guest.
And then Ray Bradford started telling a story
that he couldn't get out of.
He was like stuck on a loop,
you know,
when someone just gets stuck in a story
and they can't finish it.
And everything we said,
like simply derail him
and bring his story back like five minutes
and we're against the clock.
So I couldn't chip in with anything
other than little fucking quips
to do with his story.
Oh, right.
Had he had a few drinks?
Everyone was fucked.
Oh, Ray does that.
Ray does that.
I love Ray.
If you're drinking with Ray,
mate, fucking right,
sorry I'm a die,
fucking,
what was the fucking thing?
And you just go like...
And there's parts of the story
I don't need to be there.
Yeah, yeah.
He's like...
It was good entertainment.
It was good to watch.
He's like when a girl tells a story.
Yoga.
Yoga, the podcast
coming up with me. Just a little disclaimer. Yogo, the podcast come over, Will.
Just a little disclaimer,
all of the words
coming out of Elliot Steele's mouth
are not endorsed
by the Muggins & Cream brand.
What were you saying?
You know when, like,
you know when there's, like,
a drunk girl at a bar?
You mean a bimbo?
A bimbo.
You're not trying to bring down
a whole gender?
Nah, nah,
you want to
stick together
but there's male
bimbos too
you mean bimbos
I'm just giving
them shit
yeah give it
to them
alright
done too many
podcasts with
Daniel who's
made you fucking
do fat checks
and all the
little things
it's made me
soft hasn't it
yeah
so you know
when like a
fucking bitch
is telling
commit to the bitch come on so you know when like a fucking bitch is telling... Come in a bit, come on.
So, you know, like I'm fucking about,
you know when like a girl is telling a story at a bar,
she's had a few drinks and it'll be like,
and you meet her in a smoking area
and it'll be like, this is my friend Stacey
and Stacey is wonderful.
And so we met back when we were at uni
because I was learning how to be a journalist,
but I work at TK Maxx now.
But then you're like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
What is the story?
Because I was meeting Stacey,
then I found out you're not a journalist,
now you work at TK Maxx.
That is...
That's a good example.
I just love that your window into the female world
is just the people that you chat up off Instagram.
They're the people you slay into the DMs of. And people that you chat up off Instagram. They're the people you slide into the DMs of.
And that is your just cross section.
That's your cross section of work.
That's who women are.
I like staying on my side.
They can stay on this.
Oh, my dears.
I'm fucking about, man.
Speaking of Instagram, I told you that date story earlier.
Do you want me to tell that later?
Bookmark that.
Bookmark that because I'm going to finish the point I was trying to make.
So the Little Dum Dum Club are a big ambassador of Milan,
who you know Milan.
A lot of our podcast listeners have heard of Milan already,
but if you don't know Milan,
if this is the first time you're hearing of him,
he's Australian by accent, Serbian by birth,
and he just appears in random festivals
and places around the world
and when Milan turns up
you are getting cunted
and there's no two ways about it
I don't know what he does
he's an enigma
I think he works
touring bands
and his hobby is comedy
I think
he's in the music industry
but his hobby is comedy
nobody truly knows
he tried explaining it
to me the other day
and I kind of stopped him
I was just like
you know what
I like it
the way it is
but that's how I know
it's to do with music
but I don't know
what aspect of music
so
he just
fucking
like
this is how I find out
he's at the fringe
I'll hear him laughing
and see him in my audience
and then my heart
will sink while I'm on stage
because whatever I had
planned tonight
it's fucking ruined
I've had it before
where I've been in Vegas before with Nick Cody and Sloss and Matty and then my heart will sink while I'm on stage because whatever I had planned tonight is fucking ruined. I've had it before where I've been in Vegas before
with Nick Cody and Sloss and Matty
and then fucking Milan's just rocked up
because he knew he was our mates
and he fucking knew we were there
and he fucking rocked up in Vegas.
You just turned up out of the blue?
Out of the blue.
Fucking me.
It was the wildest fucking weekend of my life.
So he is in Serbia
with the Dumb Dumb Podcast World Tour
and I know he's in Serbia with them
and then he posts a picture of him and someone
saying this is the reason I'm not coming to London
and I just thought he wasn't coming to London
he'd thrown that in as a little
fucking red herring for me to pick up
because he was coming to London
he just wanted me to think he wasn't
so I turned up to the podcast, I got my bag ready
to just hit and run, do the podcast, get off home
I got my land on my back ready to just hit and run do the podcast get off home I got my land
getting my land's brutal
I got my land
it was fucking brutal
but I actually
fucking
at the punch trunk gig
I'm going to shout out
to Jocelyn
and Terry Bernard
who
they're from Fife
but they come
to the punch trunk gig
to live
you know those guys
they brought us
a weed brownie
and I decided
then was the point
to crack into it
oh nice so I was given I was giving I was snapping off bits of a weed brownie and I decided then was the point to crack into it.
Oh, nice.
So I was giving,
I was giving,
like I was snapping off bits of my weed brownie
and dishing them round
and people were like,
oh, I'll have half of that
and having half of the bit
I gave them
and then giving me half back
and I was just like,
I'm not going to put it back
in a tin foil
so I just put it through the hatch.
I fucking OD'd on weed brownie
mid-bean Milan
and then I took a pill off
Joey Page.
What?
What?
I don't know what I don't know
I don't know if you'll
appreciate that
I was a dealer
if you want to see
Joey Page
he's now on G-Wing
for drug supply
he'll be alright
with his time
he's cool
he probably will
I'm not going to
take any
I'm not going to
assume that he'll be all right so i'll just
think i'm just not gonna assume he listens to the podcast that's that sort of don't have to edit
anything um so i ended up right in that so that's what what was that combination like
it got too much yeah so there was there was a point where um i'm holding my own in conversation
right you know how i've always pride myself with keeping hold of the wheel.
So I'd get to the point, at this point in the night, right?
We were out with Ray, who I didn't know very well.
Ray Bradford.
He's quality, right?
So I think I'd met him before, but I'd never hung out with him until that night.
Nicholas Capa.
Don't know him.
He was on the podcast.
It's fucking great what they did to Capa.
Everybody wanted him to be on the podcast
as a guest
on the world tour
right
but he couldn't afford
to travel around
and it's not making
enough money
to subsidise him
so they decided
to put it to the audience
to crowdfund
his travel
but however much
they raised
during crowdfunding
they had to fucking
make him go that far
so like
if they raised
like a fucking
just a couple hundred
or whatever he'd have to get the economy flight there but if they raised, like, a fucking, just a couple hundred pund or whatever,
he'd had to get the economy flight there.
But if they raised a few grand,
they'd send him through China and Mongolia
and fucking everywhere, right?
Oh, amazing.
They raised four grand.
Oh.
And he, to get the free trip,
he had to date in a tuxedo with makeup on
and his hair straightened.
Oh.
In the cunt, has fucking travelled the world
looking like a fucking boxing ring announcer
has just been kissing
the fucking
one of the ring girls
and make up
smeared across his face
that's genius
I've not heard this podcast
but I already
that's amazing
it's so fucking cool
right
that's so good
so fucking
I'm out basically
with fucking
Ray Bradren
who's off his melon
fucking Kappa
who's wearing a tux
hair straight
and I've just met them.
I've met them before,
but this is my first time hanging out with them.
I'd lost Tommy and Carl, who hosted, who I know,
and I'd fucking lost Milan.
They'd out-fucked our home at this point.
So I'm, like, out in Stoke Newton,
by the way, at a fucking Latino bar,
where there's just people, like,
fucking grinding up against each other,
shirts open, medallions on.
Oh, yeah, they don't.
Unironic.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, they don't fuck about.
And then all of a sudden,
we went in with like half the audience
like fucking 20 people
out of the podcast audience
probably less than half
but an amount
right
and then
it just like
this fucking Latino
bar
just got like
fucking swarmed
with nerds
essentially
and it's just
it was just such a
fucking clash
of two worlds
I'm looking over
people with their
satchels on
like really fucking
into podcasts
and all that
like enthusiasts
and then people
like fucking
listening to Sean Paul
and trying to
dance to reggae
turn his dick
off on a guy
trying to rub his
cock against somebody
that's a side of
I've
that's a side
see what we've
talked about
Jamali calling us
white or something
that's the thing I will always say I'mali calling us white or something that's the thing
I will always say
I'm too white to do
is dance
and it not be ironic
and also
if I was to sit
if I was to go into a place
and that was the kind of dancing
I'll just go
no do you know what
tonight I'm feminist
yeah
I don't agree with this
like I can't do it
like
I mean
I can't do that
but I hate to say it
though the Lassies
were loving it
they are loving it
they were fucking
twerking and backing
up and draining
right in with them
and that and that
and my school
that works
at my school
there was the Jamaican
and Latino kids
at prom yeah
were doing things
on the dance floor
that they could not
do post Me Too
and everyone was
cool with it
and everyone was
15 and it was the Jama it and everyone was 15.
Oh my God.
And it was the Jamaica kids
and the Latino kids
and then the white people
were there going like,
oh,
when's Come On Arlene
coming on?
They were really
taking this shit out of them.
Yeah,
just waiting for
Cotton Eye Jules
so you can have
some human contact.
I got
doot doot.
What's that one where
you fucking sit on the floor
and tap the seat
what's that one
can't I get in
time warp
no no time warp
let's do
what's that one
there's the macarena
what's the one
where you sit on the floor
I know
everyone fucking
sits in the chair
there's people screaming
at the podcast right now
and you do the rowing
sort of thing
and then you
it's an old disco one
yeah
so
it got to the point people say we disco one yeah so it got to the point
people say we don't have culture
it got to the point right
where I was
because I was
fucking chain smoking as well
which I've been not smoking
lately as well
and like
I just woke up with a heavy chest
and I was like
fuck what did I do that for
but I had to like
just technically
sell away from it a little bit
and when people were talking
I was holding my own
in conversation
but I had to let them know
I was like
this fucking weed brownie
is kicking my ass right now,
like,
I'm fucking really,
hanging on in there,
but like,
they were just going,
now you seem alright,
you seem sound,
so I was,
I was holding on to it.
What was the,
what was the,
because,
because a pill makes you go,
I want to go and chat to everyone,
and a weed brownie makes you go like,
oh god,
what if we run out of oil?
This,
this is exactly what it did to us in the end,
it made us want to chat to everybody, but it didn't make us want to socialise, Oh God, what if we run out of oil? This is exactly what it did to us in the end.
It made us want to chat to everybody,
but it didn't make us want to socialise.
So I sat in the corner,
I found something,
because I got to the point right where I was like,
I need to get myself home now.
There's nobody here that cares for us,
you know what I mean?
I was out with people who I've just met.
There's nobody there that's going to make sure I get home okay.
Also, you're a 36-year-old man. I'm a 36-year-old man, right okay like I'm sure also you're a 36 year old man I'm a 36 year old man right
and I'm sure
if I fucking reached out
to somebody
like the cap or a brother
like lads I'm fucked
you're going to have to
fucking look after me here
like you know
you've seen me before
where I've said
you lot
I went
I was in a bifa
and I took a second lot
and I was like
lads I'm in trouble
like you're going to have
to look out for us
it was the Ketamine
that did you
yeah because I thought
I thought we were
giving this thing a call
I know
sorry dad
I don't want to listen
to this podcast
I'm sorry
I've hit a new low
and it was
two years ago
can I just say
that was one of the
most wonderful moments ever
I gave Kai a little key
he did it
and then someone else
came up
I won't name who
because I
don't want
to throw
people under
the bus
because I'm
not like
you
gave them
a key
I turned
away
and you
both went
oh that's
a bit stingy
and I went
oh what
do you want
a bit more
ket
and you
both in
unison
went
ket
I just
watched people
fall out
of the sky
I'd only been on the ket so anyway there's a I just watched people fall out of the sky. Yeah, because we just took...
I'd only been on the kit.
So anyway, there's a point where I've went,
lads, you're going to have to look out for me.
I'm in trouble here.
I'm going to be all right,
but I'm just going to need some guidance.
But I didn't really have anyone
that I could reach out to in that capacity.
So I was like, right,
you know you're going to be in trouble.
Get yourself home while you're aware of it,
while you've got the substance.
So I went to book an Uber,
and my phone was on like fucking less than zero.
So I'm fucking just going around this Latino bar
looking for a charger.
I managed to fucking plug my phone in.
And where were you? Stoke Newington?
Stoke Newington.
So there's no tube station.
So I just fucking, I get to my phone charge,
and I'm just sat by my phone
fucking bag on my back
just like
fucking
so sad
it's so sad
but people just
kept on a rotation
coming to talk to us
like just coming to
check if I was alright
and then I was like
shooting the breeze
with them for five minutes
so I was just sat there
just fucking
treating me
treating like
all these people
like your sushi
just
just coming
because Joey
was there with his missus as well and she just kept coming and checking in with us and having a chat because like we've beaten a glass game treating me treating that like all these people like your sushi just come because i enjoyed joey
was there with his missus as well and she just kept coming and checking in with us and having
a chat because like we've been to glasgow so uh it was good but then i got my uber and got home
woke up in the uber at my door not knowing where the i was because i bear in mind i've just
been new york what's my life been lately it's been like it's been South Africa to Mauritius
to the UK
to New York
back to the UK
to Australia
like five different places
in Australia
to back home
and like in the midst of this
I just opened my eyes
and I was like
where the fuck in the world
an army who's there
what a struggle
look
oh it was fucking great
to see me home
and then I just woke up
in the morning
with the exact same feeling I woke up in the taxi feeling like where the fuck am I just woke up in the morning with the exact same feeling
I woke up in the taxi
feeling like
where the fuck am I
then woke up in bed
like where the fuck am I
fucking hell man
that's why I don't do
the edibles
because I don't really
smoke weed anymore
like I used to quite a bit
and now I don't
I don't touch the stuff
and it's exactly
that thing of like
it's
I know I'll be alright on it
do you remember when
we ate those space cakes at Soss's yeah and it just it just went well like it's I know I'll be alright on it do you remember when we ate those space cakes
at Saucers
yeah
it just
it just went well
like it grew a bit more hot
well we watched
we watched three films
yeah
we watched Mr Deeds
and we watched
Chris Rock
Down to Earth
both of them
are the same film
just one's with a black guy
and one's with a white guy
yeah
it's essential that
that's what it is
and we were me and Colin had been like watching but even with one with a black guy it's one with a white guy it's essential that that's what it is and we were
me and Colin
had been like watching
but even with one
with a black guy
it's one with a black guy
being a white guy
yeah yeah
it would have been
so racist
the other way around
oh they've got to do it
Adam Sandler
you've got to do it
you're dying
come back
into the black guy
he's trying to fit
into white culture
please
please
there's nothing
beyond you
so
and I just remember
lying on sofa
you were asleep
on the other side
of the room
so I was on
one part of the sofa
I was on this
little sofa chair
it doesn't matter
but I remember
just lying there
and going
what the fuck
and so the next night
I did a bit more
with Colin.
It was just me and Colin.
I think we watched like every Blade film or something.
Or over that weekend, we'd watched all the Blade films.
That was the weekend where my knitting took a turn for the worse
because I got high.
Remember, I was knitting that scarf, and it was like really neat.
And then I got high.
And then people were posting me the picture of the spaders
that are
given like a
tiny nanodose
of different drugs
like caffeine
and cannabis
and stuff like that
and it shows you
the spader webs change
and it was literally
that primal
my knitting was
that primal
I took a thing
and my knitting changed
oh wonderful
I remember just
one of the nights
I was sleeping
in Daniel's room
Daniel was away
I wasn't just like
crashing in there
and yes
I'm Piggy
and
no so
and it was
surprise guys
anyone guess it
and
the only times I've had
to beep Elliot in the ear mode
so
I was in there
and I went
it's too cold
I'm gonna die of cold
so I went
into the other room to the spare room and slept in there because it wasn't as. I'm going to die of cold. So I went into the other room,
to the spare room,
and slept in there
because it wasn't as cold
so I wouldn't die of cold.
And that's when I was like,
I'm not doing edibles anymore.
Because it wasn't that cold?
No, because it's just,
you can't deal with the simplest of things,
the simplest of tasks that I'm given.
I just start,
I find what weed's good for,
it makes you think deeply.
So there are bits of
stand-up that are i've written because i've just been on the team and i've had a pull on something
and it just makes you thinking a bit more of a like what do i really think about this
i think it's good for that but there's an edge where it puts you into like
sort of mode do you know what i mean yeah like I just can't deal with that
you find yourself
just having to
proactively stop
intrusive thoughts
and it's fucking
it's exhausting
yeah
and there's times
when like
you forget what you're saying
while you're saying it
and you forget
what you're thinking
while you're thinking it
and it's like
it's just too much
like you've just fucking
it's a lot of admin
you've just malfunctioned
a little bit
that's what's good about it at least you can't all day on it when you're all day on it
that's the worst it gets yeah is that you just get fucking stuck in like a like you're stuck
stoned for a bit yeah yeah um like i was never i was never unsafe being on it no no i just think
it's a weird combination to have with uh with a Yeah. It's like, are you taking an upper with a downer?
So I did it so you don't have to.
I do not recommend it.
Yeah.
Fucking challenge me.
Yeah, I mean, you'd probably give it a shot.
I've got some left if you want some.
What, weed brownie?
A little bit of brownie.
Fuck no, man.
I've got to go on stage in a little bit.
Yeah, don't take it.
Jesus, that'd be me crying up there.
Yep.
So I got home
and while I've been away,
they've opened a pure gym over the road.
Right.
And they've opened a knitting shop
around the corner.
For someone.
Like, what the fuck is it?
So I moved here
and there's a Mai Tai place
and a climbing wall right next to it.
Then I fucking go away for 10 weeks,
come back and they're just going,
oh, you've got two other hobbies
how about we'll just put them
here for you as well
I think I'm going to open up
a weed brownie shop
in a place that serves
ecstasy next time
you guys
just to really tension
well actually
you say that
I've been smelling
cannabis next door
coming from the balcony
next door
so they've been smoking weed
so there might be
a potential supply next door so maybe if I oh you don so there may there may be a potential supply next door
so maybe
you don't want that
you don't want
you don't want that neighbour
who you end up
smoking weed with
and hanging out with
man all the time
because then it's like
every time you see each other
you've got to now hang out
you actually really
don't want that
you don't want that
it's actually
it was bad enough
living with Sloss
you don't want that
because that's
because he's a he's a wicked big kind of guy
when you live with him.
Danny manages
weed
in a way
that is so good.
He gets so much done.
Danny...
He gets shit done.
Danny, like,
he's fucking irritating.
He organises comics
in the Alphabetic Lawda.
He just does shit like that.
He's just practical.
He's just, yeah,
he'll get high and then write he's just yeah he'll get high
and then write a hit show
whereas I'll get high
and then like
get Brentford
into the Champions League
don't get me wrong
they're both
they're both impressive
I'll get high
and just fucking
get locked into Hearthstone
for fucking three hours
which by the way
Gareth Ward still hasn't
listened to any of the podcasts.
I have a confession.
What?
So, all right, you see that you said when Gareth and Elliot listened to that podcast,
that's the way they'll be able to play Hearthstone.
So a little recap.
That was the thing.
Yeah, that was two episodes ago.
So I did listen to that podcast when it came out.
Immediately.
It was like half an hour after I released it.
Immediately when it came out, yeah.
Here's why I listened to it.
Because when you put it out,
you said there was a live Sloss and Humphrey show.
I was fucking raging that I had not been asked.
I was furious.
I was like, I'm listening to this
to find out who the fuck's on this.
And then I remembered you were in Australia.
Oh, really?
So you can...
Because Elliot...
Elliot texts me
saying that
you text me
saying that
fucking
that
of course I listen
to your podcast
I fucking
owe me an apology
and you took
the moral high
going on it
I did
I went back
and re-listened
and I was like
I do enjoy the podcast
I do like it
I like the podcast
that I'm on
yeah
thanks for having me on
but I do
I do like it.
It does make me laugh.
So as far as the live podcast went, right,
absolute success, I think, is a live show for sure.
The people that came to it loved it, loved meeting everybody,
loved hanging out with people afterwards.
Somebody went on an eight-hour trip
because they lived eight hours away
from Melbourne
but had uni in Melbourne
but because it was
Easter weekend
they were back home
with their family
for two weeks
so I think it was Matilda
hi Matilda
so she
what a hero
she drove for that
so I give her
the mittens I knitted
because I thought
well if she spent
a few hours on me
I've spent a few hours
on her
that's fair
so I give her those mittens
not that she'll ever
need them in Australia
but it's a bit of
memorabilia
for the thing
you know
I'm sure she'd
probably rather
something of Danny
but no
that's why she
drove for you
that was
but you know
what
so
as an event
I think it meant
the world to the
people that went there
it meant the world
to us that they came
especially on Easter weekend
when people are
fucking spending time
doing pre-planned shit
yeah
you know
and
it was good
I enjoyed doing it
the guests were
fucking awesome on it
I don't know how it is
for the listeners back home
I've not listened to it yet
yeah
Matty
Matty said that
he preferred it
who gives a
fuck what Matty thinks
who gives a fuck about Matty thinks who gives a fuck
about Matty
he's about to lose
another house
he's got back
in his early relationship
personally
I listen to the
Dollop podcast
now and again
and every time
that's live
I feel like
it's not really
as intimate as it was
so I don't know
we're not
we're not going to
make a regular thing of it
unless there's a
massive demand
I doubt we will
but we're going to do
the odd one
I better be fucking honest
because it's like
a lot of podcasters
slip into live podcast mode
and every single one
is a live podcast
yes
let's not do that
let's keep it like this
and then
say at Edinburgh Festival
we'll put one on
yeah
I do prefer it
where I'm just
sat on your sofa
drinking tea.
Yeah.
And just relaxed.
I would actually, in front of a live audience as well,
it'd be horrible to know what would bomb.
And also, if I started getting laughs on horrific things, I'd say,
I probably would take it a bit too far.
Yeah.
It would go a bit like, oh, no, no, no, I was joking there, sorry.
I mean, it was finding out that, you know,
when I do the little tunes at the beginning,
it just got a titter, got like a titter of laughter.
No.
It just got like, ha, ha.
No, because in your head, everyone's like belly laughing on their way to work.
Well, I don't know if I was thinking, though, belly laughing.
Right?
But it was like, I knew it was funny because it winds Danny up,
and it was the not known that made it funny
it was the not known if it went down
were people that made it funny
but now I just know that it's tepid
it's almost like
it's a draw
it didn't stop you today
did it?
nah, never will
should I tell
I told you this
story before
yeah
for the podcast
yeah and I was
like oh it's
it's a shame
because I
I didn't think
you'd want to
tell the story
on the podcast
because it was
a date
oh I don't
give a fuck
because now you've
got all your
fucking Instagram
girls out there
do the impression
again
oh my god
so Jennifer
so we like
started at school
together
and now we're
only hanging out and it's so much fun.
But like, no, sorry, no, do you have another cigarette?
Since all those girls are listening, I thought you were trying to let them all know that we're exclusive.
No, no, no, no. It was a date.
So I was going on a date.
So it was just on a date.
So it was just me and her having a few drinks.
That's what it was, right?
So I'm meeting this person by London Bridge.
And I go meet her.
And I take, I swear to God, Kai, two steps.
Two steps.
And I look on the floor.
And there's a bag of cocaine.
What am I telling this on here?
And then,
and then I pick it up,
and I look there,
and I went,
well,
one of us has been good in a past life.
So we go,
we're having a few drinks.
We haven't done it,
and we're actually,
like,
hanging out.
She's into it as well.
She thought it was funny, so. thought it was funny so because that was
because that's
that's a rule of the days
like some people
like it's some
I'm not going to
derail the story
I'm just going to
punctuate it right
so a friend of mine
who I will not name
right was going out
with a girl who
he referred to as
Snow White
because she's like
like porcelain white
squeaky clean right
and he referred to her
as Snow White
and then
one of his friends
texted him
asking what he was up to
tonight
and he was like
I think I'm just going to
be banging Snow White
right
and he texted to her
right
and she just went
excuse me
she doesn't actually
it's called Snow White
right
and he just went
oh sorry
that text wasn't meant
for you
I'm just there
letting my mates know
I'm on the coke tonight
right
styled it out
she dumped him
for taking coke Let me meet you know I'm on the coke tonight. All right, still it out. She dumped them for technical I feel like it's different
to do that
because it's a historic story
you're right
without saying fucking
early 20s
that's a fucking
amazing story
so
we go
we have a couple drinks
we go to another bar
and
I go to her like
fuck it
should we do it and she's like all right you go for it so i go
and i do uh parents listen to this i do a line of it right and i do it right and i go
that's the dumbest thing i've ever done i just found something on the floor
that was like that was really didn't even like dab a little bit i just like i just did it and
then i went,
oh, fucking idiot, Elliot.
You fucking idiot.
Yeah, you know,
there's these people that put razor blades
into the fucking parks.
That's an urban myth.
Urban myth stuff, right?
But it's like somebody
could drop a bag
of something shitty
in a nightclub.
Yeah, and kill me.
And so I did it.
My God, bro.
Whoever dropped that bag of coke, I'm so sorry that you dropped absolute rocket fuel. kill me and so I do it my god bro whoever whoever dropped
that bag of coke
I'm so sorry
that you dropped
absolute rocket fuel
oh dude
oh
I did one line
and I went
I don't need anymore
and I was sat
in this place
she goes to do a key
and I'm just sat there
in this bar
and I went
I need to get up
and walk around
like I can't sit down
so
yeah
it was a
it was a fun day and and then and she tell them
what tell the listeners what you told me about where she thought it was a play so she she yeah
this is the other thing so she comes out she does this thing and then she like sort of goes to
herself hold on i never saw it on the floor i only saw him turn around and go, like, look what I found.
So she was going,
I don't know if this guy could have just been drugging me.
And then, like, it could have been anything.
Yeah.
Like, it was just like a play where she was like,
like I'd rehypnoled her or something.
Or like, because you said she thought it was a play
where, like, you brought a bag of coke,
you'd throw it down and went,
hey, look what I've just found.
Yeah, yeah.
And then you have a great night.
I'm not smart enough to do that.
I haven't got that ability in me.
That is fucking...
That is like Bill Cosby genius.
No, that was a hip and old one.
It's like fucking chess move.
Yeah. No, that's like fucking chest move yeah
no that's like
it'd be a
fucked up thing
to do
but it's also
a little bit like
what's this
behind your ear
yeah
it's a little bit
corny to do that
also
yeah it could
just be like
I went on a date
with a girl one time
and there was
a part where
she was like
we're both adults
here
but when I
found it I didn't know if adults here like but when I found it
I didn't know
if she
did drugs
so I immediately found it
lit up like a
just because you got excited
just by the way
you didn't even test the water
didn't even test the water
imagine she was like
oh god
you should call the police
and you're like
you have to stay allowed
you're like
I just found a bag of coke
oh my god like quickly your fingerprints are on it And you're like, you have to style that out. You're like, I just found a bag of coke. Oh, my God.
Like, quickly, your fingerprints are on it.
Yeah, so I'm not like a Bill Cosby sort of... Well, you know what?
It was probably the giveaway that you weren't trying to drug her
was probably the fact that you racked yourself up a big bump
a lane first.
I came in more chatty than tired.
I didn't do a big one.
I just did like a little,
I'll tell you how good this line was.
It broke my phone.
My phone broke,
so I had to go get my phone fixed this weekend.
You might have just given it a power outage.
I don't know.
I might have just sniffed up my battery from my phone.
That's why you're so amped but yeah it was uh it was one
of those things where i did it i still i mean i that story's out there now yeah i probably should
have thought about telling that no you did you did you just told it to me at the coffee table
and then i was like you should tell that on the podcast you're like man all right go on then
anyway so you didn't think about it so my show this year is about me quitting drugs
is that it
yeah it's got a bit
about it
about cause
cause well
I don't want to give
too much away about it
but like
spoilers
but it's
anyway
I was trying to think
of a spoiler
but I didn't
I didn't want to
spoil one of those
are you doing the thing
about your 100 days off
a little bit of it's about that
are you doing about
the end of your 100 days off
about the last the end of your 100 days off? A little bit of it's about that. Are you doing about the end of your 100 days off?
About?
The last, the end of your 100 days.
Wait, don't tell this story.
All right.
Go on then.
I knew that was going to happen.
Because every story on here is now going to involve,
the whole podcast has been us talking about drugs.
Everyone's going to think we've got a problem.
Yeah, well, it's a drug podcast, isn't it?
That's the episode now. Like, you know, sometimes it'll be on a theme. Fuck to think we've got a problem yeah well it's a drug podcast isn't it that's the episode now like you know
sometimes it'll be on a theme
fuck man
we've done ones about knitting
we've done ones about
Dungeons and Dragons
I've not been on them once
we've done ones about Muay Thai
yeah
you know
there's ones that have
picked a theme
yeah
often you know
we talk about Muay Thai
people don't like it
we're tired about
fucking knitting
people might think
it's a bit shit
like Dungeons and Dragons
might be over a few people's heads
every now and again
the podcast is about
a thing that is for
some people
and it isn't for others
and if this one
isn't for you
fucking loser
nerd
so right
you can decide
who's the loser
after this little story
oh
it's so bad
Elliot
took a hundred days off everything.
Drink, drugs.
Sausage rolls.
Sausage rolls.
Had a Muay Thai fight in the middle of it
where the shit kicked out of me.
So 100 days clean,
which is the fucking battle cry of someone with addiction.
Not I've quit,
but I am going to show that i've got
control of this yeah right which is it controlling you essentially no i disagree i disagree because
my thing is like i can pick it up and put it down whenever i want the reason i did it is because i
had to focus i i'll tell the audience this i'd fucked up in edinburgh fringe yeah and you're
coming in short i was coming in short i'd fucked it up and I didn't have my priorities right. So I had to sort my priorities out and one of those priorities
was putting all of that down and not just showing myself but sort of showing the powers that be in
the comedy industry. Hey look I'm not that guy. I can take it. I can I can take this seriously. Yeah.
So you did that and it was a success.
Yeah, I could do it whenever.
It was 100 days down to the minute, right?
And then because I was back in London,
and that coincided with your 100 days running out.
Let's go out.
You're like, shall we go out?
And when midnight hits, we can get on it.
Yeah.
And we'd done our gigs.
We met up at about 11.
We ordered a drink, and you had your first pint on midnight. I didn't we'd done our gigs, we met up at about 11, we ordered a drink,
and you had your first pint on midnight,
and we're cool.
I didn't drink,
I didn't even drink that night.
I was still like,
I don't fancy drinking.
Nah.
No, I didn't drink at all.
I remember,
I remember it differently.
My first drink was at
Phil Wang and Tom Rosenthal
and Ian Sterling's birthday.
Okay, that just made the story even weirder.
Because you were
tanning the coke that night
I didn't
I didn't know
that you were sober
I was sober
why didn't you
stop cutting the coke
I wasn't telling you
you're making it out
of my coke Danny
I did
let me tell the story
because you're going
to tell it
no no no
I've got it
I've got this
no you're just
correct as I'm stopping
right because I was that I wasn't tanning the coke so you weren't right you're going to tell it no no no I've got it I've got this no you're just correct as I'm starting right
because I was
that
I wasn't that
in coach
so you weren't
right
I'm going to say
I came back
from a gig
in Essex
this is what it
was
I was doing
a gig
in Essex
I came back
met you lot
and then
I met you lot
at Peckham
Levels
oh yeah
that's where it was
in my head
I had a
Soho theatre
so we did
meet at Soho
theatre we went to Peckham Level, and then we ended up coming back here.
But I had been sober up until I got back here. I hadn't touched a drink or anything.
You drank here though?
No, I didn't. Because I was just like, I didn't fancy drinking.
But that was the whole point of the night. Was that your 100 days had finished?
My 100 days had finished, but I just wasn't drinking. For whatever reason, I wasn't, I didn't fancy. But that was the whole point in the night. Was that your 100 days had finished? My 100 days had finished
but I just wasn't drinking.
For whatever reason,
I wasn't drinking.
Right,
this makes it weirder,
right,
because now,
I thought you were drunk
that night.
Why?
Turns out you weren't.
This is why the ending
of it will make more sense.
This makes it even weirder,
right?
We had a fucking
neat idea you were sober.
I thought that was the whole point of the night.
No, that wasn't the point of the night at all.
So anyway, anyway,
I'm going to get to the crux of the story.
We've fucking diluted this with fucking fake news, right?
Is we'll get back to here, this flat,
where currently Natalie's flat.
Natalie was out as well.
Now Natalie doesn't,
she doesn't touch coke, right?
But we had some,
and it was in
these like folded up lottery tickets and we woke up in the morning to an
absolutely tidy house immaculate tidy and then it turned out Natalie had got it up
at a reasonable time before us tidied around us and we woke up to that right
and you were like oh where's the lottery ticket?
The folded lottery ticket
from the thing
that had me corking.
Oh no, you just mentioned
the cork fish.
It was like,
there's no cork on the thing.
And you went,
it wasn't in a plastic bag,
it was in a folded up bit of paper.
And she was like,
oh, in that case,
it's in the recycle bin.
So fucking,
next thing you know,
you've got the recycle bin
out along me kitchen floor
rummaging through
and I went through
and went,
what are you doing?
And you're like,
I'm just looking for me cork.
Elliot, Elliot, you're telling me, you've just
been 100 days clean, and on
the first day after 100 days,
you're rummaging through your bin looking
for drugs. Yeah.
So let me just say to the listener
what had happened. We'd, someone
had picked up, I'd put money in, got
some, did a bit of it, and then I just wasn't,
I wasn't like
straight back
into sesh level
like I had been
I was just like
which is why you had
some left in the morning
I'm just going to say
in your defence
that's why you had
left in the morning
and then it was
it was also
because like
I was still
at that time in my life
I was fucking wary
about seshing
because I was like
oh am I going to
go back into it
oh you lose your tolerance
and like just do it not just a tolerance thing but like am I just going to go back into it are you losing tolerance and like
just do it not just a tolerance thing but like am I just gonna I didn't want to do like a sesh
turn into a sesh turn into a session because I you you know how it is like you go out and you
party and stuff but you are my thing is now what I've got to do this Edinburgh which speak to you
before about I can't fucking I've learned about myself can't do, I haven't got the ability to set things aside.
So I'm either, I'm either doing it or I'm not doing it.
I have not got the ability like you can to go like, oh, I'm out and I'm now doing this.
Fuck it.
That's the way it's gone.
Yeah.
Like, but I've still got to get up and do this, this and this tomorrow.
I can't do that.
So I'm either like, right, I'm not doing it.
I'm in this.
I'm training.
This is the morning.
This is it.
Gig every night.
Right.
That is what I do.
So that's my lifestyle.
Or it's just like, ah, fuck it.
I'm going to eat at McDonald's.
I'm going to do like, you know, and it falls like that to everything.
You've got no balance so I I'm quite wary if I do like uh I did a few weeks earlier this year where I just I just
found out I hadn't been drinking I just found myself not drinking yeah and I was just suddenly
like doing it before altitude and then I went I did a gig at the I was at the comedy store
this is really boring but I did a gig at a, I was at the comedy store, this is really boring,
but I did a gig at a comedy store,
and I ended up having a drink there,
because I was like,
fuck it,
you've just smashed the store,
it was for my agency showcase.
Slipping that in there,
what?
My agency showcase,
and I was like,
you can have a drink here.
Oh yeah,
that's the thing,
don't begrudge yourself,
like,
if you're at a point where,
like,
you're trying to do well,
but then you find yourself in a situation,
where like, you don't want to rob yourself of that situation,
you fucking go for it.
Yeah, I just find it like I'm still because of what I've been doing.
So we'll make a decision.
He has his choice for you, right?
After here, what time is it now?
45.
It's 10 past three.
No, it's the actual time.
So Natalie and Kat are getting in about six o'clock, right?
We've got a good
three hours to kill
before they get here.
Here's an option for you.
Do you want to come
to the gym
or do you want to
go out for a paint?
Let's go to the gym.
Do you want to?
Yeah, yeah.
That's a choice.
I've been to Muay Thai
today already,
but I'll go to the gym
with you.
All right.
I've got a gig.
I'm easy with it.
I haven't seen you
in a week, right?
If you want to come
to the gym
and have a gym session,
let's do that.
If you want to go
out for a paint,
we can go out for a paint. Do you want to go to the gym and have a gym session let's do that if you want to go out for a paint go out for a paint go out to the gym
right
look out for my Instagram stories
Stephen
Stephen sticks to his word
let's just say this
have a look at the Instagram stories
let me just say this
because this is
probably the most honest
I've ever been
because I've never
I've never really spoke about this
right
on the podcast
like I speak about it to you
but even within our group of friends
I'm very
wary about speaking
I don't mind coming on
and telling my drug stories
I
I hate the fact
that there was a point in my life
where I was a guy
who was not handling his shit
yeah
like
I'd never want to be
at that point in my life again
yeah
and
it's
you didn't have your affairs in order
your ducks in a row
yeah yeah yeah I didn't have my affairs in order. Your ducks in a row. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I didn't have my fish in a barrel.
That's not the statement.
But yes.
I didn't have any, I don't know.
But yeah, I didn't have stuff in the right order
and looking back on it,
I wasn't in the right place anyway
to be doing that
and I was then turning...
Yeah, well, when your physical state
and your financial state
and all of this stuff
like your business
isn't in order
your mental health
can be in decline
yes
that's kind of
the foundations
like I know
some people's mental health
like even if
their family life
and their funds
and everything's well
their mental health
like is declined
but for somebody
just in general
somebody who isn't
mentally ill
in general
your mental health can be ill if you
don't have them foundations in order and my mental health is not in a good state when they are in
order yeah yeah i agree yeah um so uh i i found like it's very odd we talked about this on the
podcast before.
When you turn up to a weekend and you're known as someone who like,
we'll go out for a few beers, not necessarily a party,
but you go out for a few beers.
The minute you go, I'm not doing that.
The look of surprise on people's face is like,
oh, I didn't know everyone saw me like that.
Do you know what I mean?
Like when people are like
oh what do you mean
you're not drinking
and you're like
nah man
I ain't on the booze
or anything
and you don't want to go
you don't want to say
I'm sober
because there's people
out there really
have drink fucking issues
yeah
and like
it's not like
I've like
turned up to my
kid's fourth birthday
like
down the bottle of Jack's
and tried to fucking
just eat the birthday cake
because I heard there was Jägermeister in it
yeah like
if people give me that
like fucking try to like
peer pressure me into having a drink
which is because you know
I just lived healthy there in Australia
and every now and again
you'll get someone that peer pressures you
right
and you just get
like I just like
like I don't need to prove myself to you
yeah
like if we got a fucking huge vault right and put in one corner we got a fucking huge vault and put in one corner
everything that I've ever drunk and taken in one corner
and everything you've ever had in the other corner,
you'd look like a fucking pussy.
So you'd stand there fucking twisting my arm.
Like, oh, you're not having a beer.
Yeah, but I mean in the sense of when you've had people like that,
I had, I'll tell the podcast listeners this if we're being honest, are like not when you when you when you've had people like that i had a competition i had i had
i'll tell the podcast listeners this if we're being honest i had like people that be the powers
above yeah step in and be like and and actually they've spoke to me about it recently when they're
like dude you wasn't that bad you was just being a fucking 22 year old yeah and it showed and we're
just letting you know you can't be that
in this game
do you know what I mean
so that's why
I'm trying to cover
for those six stories
that I just told
just in case
anyone listens
and they're going like
Elliot's done it
and then they'll listen
at the end
and they go
wow he has matured
that's what I'm trying to do
so we're going to the gym
after this
nah fuck that
I'm going for a beer
I've already been to the gym.
We're going to have to go into dad jokes soon,
but do you want to do a quick mobile call now?
Did you get everything written down?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Sorry for taking everyone on that tangent,
but I thought it was a time for that.
Yeah, it was like,
you know what it was like a little bit
the last five, ten minutes
was a little bit like
you're reading the small print
at the end of something.
You know, like the fucking little disclaimers,
the little asterisks,
like when really no one's buying it for a second.
You're a fucking reprobate and a mess. the fucking little disclaimers the little asterisks like when really no one's buying it for a second they're going
you're a fucking
reprobating mess
yeah but also
it's
I'll tell you what
we've talked about
real quick
we've done the
Punchdrunk weekends
first time we've done
weekends
I shouldn't give a shit
can you not
no go ahead
we've doubled them
so we had one on
in Ascherton
one on in Pegswood
it's a fucking
Pegswood club as well
so did I tell the story on here about us fucking getting into a fight one on in Pegswood. It was fucking Pegswood Club as well. So I tell the story
on here about
just fucking getting
into a fight with someone
from Pegswood
in Albufira.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And I was fucking
in a hole
and I was like,
oh, is that cunt
going to turn up?
Like, I mean,
it's a proper small town.
And I was like,
oh, what if this lad
turns up?
And then like,
now it happened.
But in the end
I was just thinking,
why would he turn up?
Like, if ever there's a time to get us, it's not when I'm in a room full of me mates. Like, that would happen. But in the end, I was just thinking, why would he turn up? Like, if ever there's a time to get us,
it's not when I'm in a room full of me mates.
Like, fucking a hundred of me pals in a room.
And also, like, why should I worry about him?
Should he not be the other way around?
Why? Because you knocked him out?
Why?
Like, how that deferred...
Because you think two steps ahead of, like, things like that, and you know you think two steps ahead
of like
things like that
and you know
how lads think
and you know
lads won't rationalise
that as
they'd want a revenge
it wouldn't be
that guy's in a room
with a bunch of his mates
it's that cunt's in my town
do you know what I mean
that's how guys think
yeah
but it turns out
it didn't turn up
but it also turns out
a few people
who knew about it
come up and said
that I'd done the town a favour
oh really so yeah so i went around those gigs and there was just a great moment where
so my brother gav who you know i'm just letting the podcasters know and runs the gig so me and
gav are always at the same gigs every time that the punch drunk's on since the start in 2015
and this was the first one where i was on since the start in 2015 this was
the first
one where
I was on
one without
Gav
he was on
at one gig
and I was on
at the other
and then on the
next day
me and Gav
did the same
one and there
was an
Ashton gig
went ahead
completely
without me
and Gav
so that means
these gigs
can run
independently
of us
like we can
actually run
a Punch Drunk
gig without
us there
now
we've got
Can and
Ryan and
everyone
trained to
run the
gigs
so massive moves
for Northumberland
let's just get
straight to
that
that was as
good as my
little disclaimer
at the end
that was business
more than anything
fuck off
fuck off
that was just
there
you did so
offensive
these guys have been
keeping up with my
career for fucking
three years now
they've been keeping up
with my coke habits
for way longer
shall we do a quick
muggles because I
haven't done a muggle
in a while
yeah I don't want to
overrun the podcast
though so let's
flash them you go
muggles will shit on things
for supposedly being nerdy
yep
so we've had this
with
specifically
it's Mark Nelson
yeah I knew that
so it's good
who will
and he's doing it
as a bit
but
he also means it
so you've got Tom
who's into Magic the Gatherer
and card games
yeah and I was playing
that with Tom in Altitude
you've got me
you and Danny
who are into
Hearthstone and Dungeons and Dragons you and Danny who are in Hearthstone
and Gareth
who's into
Hearthstone as well
but like Gareth
doesn't know that
we're into it
well still dealing
on the slang
until he listens
to the podcast
we've got Cullen
who joins us
in Dungeons and Dragons
now with Hearthstone
with Magic the Gathering
with Dungeons and Dragons
you've got fucking
Mark Nelson
just fucking
too cool for school
bag on one shoulder because it's uncool to have it on two shoulders,
conforming to the fucking laws of the playground,
going, oh, he's a fucking loser, he's playing out of that.
But created a Game of Thrones WhatsApp group
so we could all discuss about dragons and what zombies attack each other.
But watches the wrestling and really enjoys when Rick Flag was...
Woo!
You know what I mean?
the wrestling and really enjoys
when Rick Flagg
goes
woo
you know what I mean
like
he's only nerdy
about the things
that he believes
to be cool
even though it's not
so to bring this back
to make it like
a muggle thing
is I was telling people
about Dungeons and Dragons
and they were turning
their nose up at it
and I was going
you will have
a great time
it's so much fun
it's like
it's a board game it's just a lot of fun tabletop game it's a much fun. It's like a board game.
It's just a lot of fun.
Tabletop game.
It's a tabletop game, whatever.
It's a fun, it's just fun.
And it's a proper laugh.
And that's all it is.
But you going like, that's fucking nerdy.
And you go, yeah, it is.
It is.
It's great.
What do you think?
None of them nerds are having fun.
So is reading.
And I don't do that.
I don't give you lots of shit for it.
Yeah, it's like being selective over what's geeky, isn't it?
Yeah.
It's like sat there in your fucking ivory tower.
There's definitely a reference to Boonan being in an ivory tower.
And that being role play, but I lost it.
I'll just give you the ingredients of the joke.
It's all right.
Very IKEA joke, that. Yeah, well, there's a bit missing. that being roleplay but never mind I lost it I'll just give you the ingredients of the joke very Ikea joke that yeah well I was on it
it was a bit missing
I thought you had to
assemble it yourself
so
yeah he's got his own
fucking nerd shit
that he'll defend
yeah
I was just using him
as an example
yeah but that is
that is people
that is people
who's like
more specifically,
I know it'll have been brought up.
I don't watch Game of Thrones.
I did it last one.
Right, yeah.
Don't, shut up.
That was last week's.
So this one I've got in here is,
right, one, yes,
royal baby enthusiasts are muggles.
Yes.
Right?
But that's so obvious, right?
They're the muggles.
The muggles are people
who get enthusiastic about the royal baby enthusiasts. Like, somebody's getting excited about the royal baby right they're the muggles the muggles are people who get enthusiastic
about the royal baby
enthusiasts
like somebody's getting
excited about the royal baby
and they're like
oh my god
I can't believe
they're getting excited
about the royal baby
and I know I'm just
the degree of separation
behind them now
being the fucking
third tier
so I'm putting myself
in muggle corner
by pointing this out
but the second wave
of royal baby posts
is the fucking
grimest read ever
have you seen some of the funny ones though at least the people who are enjoying the royal baby posters the fucking grimest read ever have you seen
some of the funny ones
though
at least
at least the people
who are enjoying
the royal baby
are enjoying something
are getting into something
are showing an interest
in something
like all the other
people that they
have shown
a non interest
in a thing
but shown an interest
in a thing
that isn't a thing
yeah but
I agree
you should go
into mogul corner
but there is
something weird about
royalists
you know
hardcore royalists
in this country
don't
if there's any
American or Australian
listeners
you won't
you won't get
you won't get it
it's Australia's
Queen too
it's not really though
is it
it is yeah
it's not though
it's a fucking
24 hour flight
it's their queen
fucking get your own
queen
and suddenly I've come to where I love the queen half Nazi accent it's a fucking 24 hour flight it's their queen fucking get your own queen
and
suddenly I've come to
I love the queen
half and Aussie accent
I can't do Aussie
I'm having a nice time
I'm having a nice time
there is something
weird about them
do you know what I mean
like the people
who queue up
to watch the queen
go past
and it's such a great day.
And you go, okay, there's a few too many people.
Yeah.
We don't need that.
I'm so into it.
I'm so into it.
You know, but maybe that's their nerdy thing.
Maybe it's their fucking real-life Game of Thrones.
They probably just can't.
Why is everyone that bothered about the fucking Iron Throne?
And everyone's obsessing over who's on that
and that's just
fucking made up
there's actually
a throne
and there's people
who are heir to it
but now what
if they were fighting
I'd probably get
behind it
and they were
getting usurped
and the queen
is also a giant lizard
like in Game of Thrones
yeah there's so much
lizard stuff
going on online
every time there's
a royal thing
isn't there
yeah
just call my joke
hack
yeah it's so joke hack yeah so much
so hack
that said
we could tackle
it for longer
but I didn't
want to overrun
yeah
royalists
in muggle corner
yeah
in the royal baby wave
and the anti-royalists
by proxy
and you put in
Mark Nelson
specifically
just Mark Nelson
yeah sure
Mark Nelson
in the corner
okay so

so here's the good news for you
after I've just fucking said that
you can buy merch
you can buy Muggins and Cream merch
from mugginsandcream.co.uk
let's just double check
into that one
and not.com
so we've had a podcast
listener big shout out to um to robert gibbs who set this up so he designed a t-shirt and made it
for himself right and we fucking love the design we're like that's fucking awesome where can people
get that from so he put a shop selling this t-shirt in um like as unofficial merch i just
got in touch with rob and i was like hey Rob how about we make
an official merch
you can design
and host it
and we'll reach out
to the audience
and get it to them
so they can find it
it's mugginsandcream.co.uk
so do you not make
any money off it
it's basically
just the fucking
cost of it
I tell you
T-shirt mill
will make a bit
of money off it
hopefully Rob
will get some
of his money back
that he's invested in the website and stuff like that
in the build-up of it.
And if there is any fucking bits and bobs
that would make off it,
we'll just use it to fucking give the guests
a bit of cash, a bit of our money on the podcast.
That'd be great.
Your face lit up.
Now it's in your best interests.
You're going to buy a few.
Guys, so that's mugginsandcream.co.uk.
Mugginsandcream.co.uk, right? And there's some great ones. There's some knitting ones. There's ones for faces. There's team mugginsandcream.co.uk. Mugginsandcream.co.uk, right?

There's some knitting ones.
There's ones for faces.
There's Team Muggins.
There's Team Cream.
There's a Team Milk Hoodie.
No one's going to get that.
And it's got a question mark at the end of it.
So let's do a prize goes to the first person
that takes a photo of themselves in a milk hoodie.
What's the prize?
The prize is

to 50 followers
yeah I will retweet it
to my 50 followers
and there's also
where have you been

that would be nice
yeah
so yeah
you won't need a photo
it will be on the news
as an international
incident
thanks to Robert Gibbs
thank you so much
mate
we would never have
been proactive enough
to do that
you're a fucking
legend for daylight
and I hope people
enjoy wearing this stuff
I really like the designs
and it looks like
they're wicked man
they're really cool
quality garms
so yes
I'd love to offer
you a free one
but I'd just have to
go online and buy it
myself and send it to you
because there's no
stash of stock
it's not like
we've done it like
if we'd done it properly
like that
we could have had some money
but like I said
we're not in it for that
I don't even get
a free t-shirt
nah
I've got to buy
my own branded t-shirt
yep
fucking this podcast
why do people listen to this but you know what Buy my own branded t-shirt. Yep. Fucking this podcast.
Why do people listen to this? Well, you know what?
If it was a functional podcast,
we'd have to do it regularly.
It would have to come out at a specific time.
Nobody's invested in it.
We probably couldn't have a 10-minute story
where someone tells us about the cocaine
and then quickly tries to backtrack on it.
We can do that with both sub-entren.
You're right.
Elliot.
Yeah?
Your dad does this party trick
where he puts his tongue up one of his nostrils
and it comes out the other.
Kai, your dad did a Facebook post
called 10 questions I'd like to ask Kate McCann
and all 10 were about how does she make a lasagna.
That's good. It's a shame it was offside with a stumble
it would have been a good goal that one
it's never going to make match of the day
your dad thinks the square root of pie
is pasty
your dad wrote and read a poem
on the 25th anniversary of the massacre
titled I'm done with the pain
from Dunblane.
Oh no.
When your dad's running out of frairy liquid,
he tops it up with water and gets another week
out of it. He does the same with milk.
He does the same with lube. He's even tried it with diesel
for his car.
That was really good.
Your dad tried to
hide the fact your mum's dog died
by dressing up as an Alsatian and growling at the postman.
Your dad rolled a split for your mum
when he sprinkled a bit of gunpowder on her
because he doesn't like her that much.
Your dad is trying to learn how to kickflip.
Your dad clenched his teeth tightly together
throughout his entire best man speech and his best mate's wedding. Your dad keeps getting Mal his teeth tightly together throughout his entire best man speech
at his best mate's wedding.
Your dad keeps getting Malala Yousafzai
and Mia Khalifa mixed up,
but he still powers through his wank.
Oh my God.
When your mom had a cesarean section,
your dad rubbed salt in the wounds
by grabbing a handful of salt and rubbing it in the boobs.
Your dad has a, if found, please return to the pub shirt.
To be fair, he has only worn it once, but your mum reckons it ruined her wedding day.
What was the title of it?
Your dad has a, if found, please return to the pub shirt.
If found, please return to the pub, sir.
Your dad's mating call is tough, soft, double armpit farts,
and he does it around the playground during the school run to impress the mothers, but it only seems to make the kids laugh.
Your dad's favourite thing in the world is to watch a film
set in New York in the 90s and point out the Twin Towers.
Where have you been since 9-11
your dad didn't have
a plunger
so he unblocked
the toilet
with his bare foot
your dad got shanked
in a school playground
your dad's got a picture
of his dead ex-wife
up in the house
to remind his current wife
not to fuck with him.
Your dad
wanted to show your mum a new movie
learned at Taekwondo and now he's not allowed
within 500 feet of her.
Your dad filled his pillowcase with
soil, put a couple of mixed seeds in it and he waters it
every night with his tears.
His tears only should have been grown rice.
Everyone at work
thinks your dad's a dick
not because his ringtone is the crazy frog
but because it went off during a minute's silence
for Barbara who had lost her battle with
leukaemia and he quietly hummed along
laughter
laughter
laughter
laughter
it's good to be back
alright I'll see you all on Saturday in Soho Oh, Barbara. It's good to be back. Quite some liquor.
All right, I'll see you all on Saturday in Soho,
because you're definitely going to be there, not the Palladium.
Bye, Merch.
