hola
we've just had
our first live podcast
I know
it's in the can
and true to form
not for any of our fans
because
you know
we love fucking them over
yeah we just did
our first live podcast
it was
how many people
do you think
it was about 30
about 30
I think that may be
it may be a bit more than that
yeah
yeah
every season
we're in a
Soho house
in Amsterdam
and
they agreed to do it
just
because they put on
performances each day
so
we thought
well I mean
we got asked to do it
and we decided
months ago
I think we were
were we meant to put it out
to the listeners
I don't think so
nah
because it was for members only
for the club
so members only
none of them listened
to the podcast
they're from all
all over the world
we had one actual fan of mine who'd seen my Netflix stuff and then everyone else was for members only for the club so members only none of them listen to the podcast they're from all all over the world mostly Dutch
we had one actual fan
of mine
who's seen my Netflix
and then everyone else
was
he's just like
taking a punt
very well dressed
like fucking
entrepreneurs
young cool people
trendy dads
very polite
and stayed into it
throughout the whole thing
like it wasn't
I imagine
it would have probably
been a bit more
like a rowdy audience had it been.
Right, but if we sound fucking weird
in the podcast,
it's because, one, we're very high.
Two, I was very nervous.
Right.
I was like...
Because normally,
we'll laugh at each other's jokes,
and that's fine,
but when it's just us two
laughing at each other's jokes
and nobody else is laughing,
you go,
oh, maybe we're not as funny
as we think we are.
And then every now and again,
because they didn't
laugh a lot
but every time they
did it meant
something
and there was a
couple of occasions
but they stayed
with it
which is what I
didn't expect
honestly I thought
we were either
going to be not
putting out this
podcast or putting
it out because
it's a fucking
shambles
I've just realised
I've fucking
forgotten one of
your dad jokes it's one of my best ones too do you want to do it now yeah I'll do a fucking shambles. I've just realised I fucking forgot one of your dad jokes.
It's one of my best ones too.
Do you want to do it now?
Yeah, I'll do it now.
Hold on, let's see if I can find it
so I can get the wording right.
I knew I'd fucking skip some.
I wondered why you had
two more than I did.
It's absolute bullshit.
So this is the first time
we've done an intro as well.
Your dad has one toenail
longer than the others
so he can sniff cocaine off of it.
Those trendy fuckers would have loved that one.
They would have liked it.
Anyway, here's the podcast.
I'll fucking enjoy.
Sloss and Humphreys on the road.
Muggins and cream, cream and muggins, straight thuggin', livin' the dream.
That's our intro.
Fuckin' muggles.
Tickling the clit inside your head to make you laugh.
They said it can't be done are we in the same seat
that's hack
aww
muggles
accidental rip 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
yeah
hello
hi
do any of you
have any idea
what this is no right do any of you have any idea what this is?
No.
Right.
Do any of you have any idea who either of us are?
Yes.
Oh, you do?
Right, good.
One fan.
Which one?
Which one?
Ah.
Oh, the superstar.
Yeah, so this is weird as fuck.
We, this is just a dumb podcast we do.
We're comedians.
His name's Kyle Humphries.
My name's Daniel Sloss.
We tour about 30 dates around Europe every year and about 50 yeah and I think I think
they'll make their own judgment if we're comedians over the next hour yeah it's
so whenever we go on the road we just do a podcast every Monday and Thursday for
our listeners and fans just to keep them updated if there's nothing intelligent
about this don't expect anything deeper part this is just dumb dick jokes for an hour
and if you understand 50% of what I say
then you're doing well
feel free to walk at any point
the second you realise how stupid this whole fucking fiasco is
at least have the decency to make a scene
like really make a scene
if you shout at us
just feel like you're not going to be leaving a performance
you're just going to stop eavesdropping
and on a conversation is the best way to look at this.
But if you enjoy it, great.
Come see us live.
Shall we?
Hi, Daniel.
Hi.
Kai.
This is weird.
It is very weird.
We're currently sat in the Soho house in Amsterdam.
We're in Amsterdam.
We just arrived this morning.
Our hotel room wasn't ready, so we went to have a joint.
Yep.
And then started overthinking the whole idea of performing in front of a bunch of people
that don't listen to the podcast.
Yeah, to do our first ever live podcast in front of 90% of people who have no fucking
idea who either of us are.
And you know what today's about?
Because it's in Soho, I think because it's in Soho House, the expectations are very high.
I love walking into members clubs as well
because I'm so council estate
that I was in my joggers when I walked in
because I travel a lot.
But then you think,
do I look like I've walked into the wrong place
or do I look like an athlete?
Everyone's looking going,
here's a million dollars.
He's just walking in here
with his track suit on.
I think you look like you're casing the joint.
Just coming in,
checking where the security cameras are.
Really bad undercover. Yeah, or just a very, checking where the security cameras are. Really bad undercover.
Yeah, or just a very, very shit rapper.
Whatever the UK equivalent would be.
Like a poor Michael Moore that actually needs to shop in the thrift shop. Is he from the UK? He's not.
No, that's why I said the UK, not Michael Moore.
Okay. Don't patronise me
in front of my friends.
So we're doing this. I've done one gig
like this at the Soho
house in London,
and that was to perform to seven people
who were definitely there to see Reginald D. Hunter.
You are not him.
I am absolutely not him.
I don't know if you want to talk polar opposites.
And to the listeners there,
Reginald D. Hunter's a big black man,
and if you've never seen Daniel before
and you've only heard his voice on the podcast,
he is not.
I imagine they could have guessed that.
But yeah, if you're listening to the podcast, I don't know what part of my voice would ever give you the impression.
I don't even have the...
You know people think that of Elliot Steele, when Elliot Steele guests on the podcast.
People think he's a big black man and he's a scrawny little white boy.
Yeah, that's what you get when you choose to...
Where is he from? Croydon?
Croydon.
I think that's the whole area.
This is much nicer.
We've been to Amsterdam several times before.
This is the only time we ever have to take it easy.
We've got a flight at 7.45.
7.45 to go to Ireland to try and ruin a wedding.
Yeah, another one.
Yeah.
I'm not doing a best man speech at this one,
but I'm still going to attempt to get booed at some point.
I'm going to keep saying that to any new listeners as well,
just to address to everyone in the room.
Yeah, yeah.
To any new listeners, I just got married recently.
Yeah, he got married in Ibiza because
you don't need to clap that it wasn't successful.
I mean,
so far I've spent the entirety
of my marriage on tour with Daniel Sloss.
Yeah, three days afterwards
we hit the road and this has been
a very graceful honeymoon period.
I mean, the sex has been shit.
I mean, it's just a taste of marriage, right?
Yeah, I guess.
That's what marriage is like.
Where have we been recently, since the last podcast?
Well, we went to Paris.
Went to Paris.
Which I want to talk about.
I'm wearing trainer socks again.
I was not looking forward to Paris because I do not like Paris.
Well, we got there early, which is rare because it's 10 o'clock in the morning.
And we had a lot of time to kill through the day.
So I asked you if you wanted to go and do some touristy shit.
And why would you not do it?
Because I've seen everything.
I've been to Paris five times.
And if I wanted to see the Eiffel Tower again, I'd Google it.
Google it.
That's exactly what I would do.
Same with the art in the Louvre.
I know what the Mona Lisa looks like.
Yeah, once you've seen the picture of it,
you've seen it, really.
I went into the Louvre,
because you were at home Googling it,
and I thought it was going to...
There's loads of cocks.
What?
There's so many cocks in the Louvre.
What do you mean?
Like, every picture has a cock in it.
Oh, you mean the art?
The art.
I thought you were just calling everyone in France a clock
it's just a fucking
museum of dick pics
it's sculptures
with dicks
paintings with dicks
the odd boob
and when I say
the odd boob
I mean an odd
number of boobs
because there's only
ever one boob out
is that where the
where's Michelangelo's
David is he there
is that not in the
Sistine Chapel
is that
no
not an intelligent
podcast I've no idea what it is I genuinely have no idea I don't know Is that not in the Sistine Chapel? No. Not an intelligent podcast.
I have no idea what it is.
I genuinely have no idea.
I don't know.
I don't think it's there, though.
Otherwise, it would have probably been on there.
Does anyone know?
We can use you as Google.
In Florence.
In Florence?
Michelangelo did it.
There you go.
It's in Florence.
This is much easier.
Yeah, so I didn't go there.
No, you didn't go there.
So you saw Michelangelo.
No, you didn't.
You saw Mona Lisa's smile and a bunch of dicks.
Yes. You have to walk through the dicks to get to the Mona Lisa. Oh, that's how they get saw Michelangelo... No, you didn't. You saw Mona Lisa's smile and a bunch of dicks. Yes.
You have to walk through the dicks to get to the Mona Lisa.
Oh, that's how they get you.
It's like the lure you're in.
They're like, oh, look at this classy-looking demure lady.
And then you just have to walk around getting slapped in the face with dicks.
All right, so now you know what it's like to be a woman on Tinder.
Just looking for one special thing and just dick, dick, dick.
Nice to get some perspective.
This is the main thing I want to talk about on this week's podcast.
You found out that you have a disability, so it makes sense.
I don't need to go to the Louvre because I can picture whatever that looks like.
Yeah, I'm actually shocked that this hasn't been talked about on the podcast before.
It's actually the first time we've brought it up.
But shall I start from the beginning?
Go.
Right.
In 2016, I was...
In 2016...
Winter.
Totally unnecessary specifics.
But now I'm picturing it.
Oh, fuck you.
You know where this is going.
Natalie, my now wife, then girlfriend, handed me an article.
She was reading an article on my iPad.
And she went, can you believe some people live like this?
And handed me this article.
And I read this article.
It was a really lengthy article.
And it was about a condition called aphantasia.
And aphantasia is mind blindness.
So it was explained that most people, when they picture a red triangle,
they can actually see a red triangle. Because if you've got a red triangle, they can actually see a red triangle.
Because if you've got a fantasia, you can't see the red triangle.
And then I was like, well, you can't see it because it's like, you know what a triangle
is, you know what red is, so you know what a red triangle is, but you can't bring up
the image of it in your head.
And then I was reading this going, what the fuck is this?
Is this a joke?
Yeah.
Like I thought it was some kind of BuzzField article to make everybody read it and think
it's a fucking prank on them,
but it would just be the same for everybody.
And I kept reading on.
It was like little things like, you know,
when people say they count sheep to get to sleep,
they actually close their eyes and picture sheep
and they can see sheep jumping over fences,
grazing in the field.
And you can't do that.
I thought it was like a turn of phrase.
I thought it was like a metaphor for like
shepherds get tired when they're counting the flock.
So then, like, counting sheep
is a metaphor for getting to sleep and that.
I was like, actually picture it. And then I realised, like,
because it's, like, when I close my eyes, it's just
darkness. Just to give a word for people, this is,
you can't see anything in your head. So if I
say picture a beach, right, and there's a red
ball bouncing on that beach, and
the fucking leaves are blowing east,
or, well, right. Right.
You can't see any of that in your head. Right, this is where
I can conceptualise it.
I don't see any, when people say vision,
like, imagine. I don't see it with
my eyesight. No, but I don't see
it with anything related that I see.
So there's nothing, there's
literally nothing going on up there.
Yeah, I think so.
Is this zeros and ones like the Matrix? It's like, I know what a. Yeah, I think so. There's just zeros and ones like the Matrix.
It's like, I know what a beach is, I know what a bread bowl is,
I know what we left from right, I know what leaves are, so all of that.
When you're reading books, are you just going, right,
I know what a man with, they're describing, a guy walks in,
he's got a beard and he's got a baseball cap.
You know man, beard, baseball cap,
but your mind can't stick any of those things together.
Yes, and this is what pisses me off the most.
This pisses me off the most because I'll be reading a book now
knowing that the experience I'm having
and the experience everybody else who doesn't have mind blindness has,
you're having, like, actual theatre of the brain,
like, vivid hallucinations, right?
I'm just, like, being told a story,
which is what I thought it was anyway.
It's just bullshit.
But my main question is,
how do you masturbate?
Like,
Like if you don't have porn,
if you've got nothing visual there.
I feel like an absolute mug now
for every memory wank I've ever had.
Because I've had memory wanks,
but I didn't realize you were bringing up images
of things that happened.
So what were you remembering?
That it happened. You know, just that you bringing up images of things that happened. So what were you remembering? That it happened.
Just that you had it.
Yeah, that happened, remember that?
Without your main's eye.
Just describing the situation to yourself.
Yeah.
So how old are you now? And you've just worked this out.
I'm 35 and I worked this out when I was 33.
And, uh, is that right? Yeah, yeah.
And I must say, because it's a condition that exists in how much of the population?
Actually, it's one in 100.
It's like somewhere between one and three percent since they figured out.
And that's what I mean.
And we should have put a precaution on talking about it, because statistically, some people
might be sit there going like, oh, fuck, this is me.
Because I've told this to a number of people.
I haven't really shouted about it
because I don't identify as it.
It's something I'll talk about as a discussion
like we are now.
But I was telling Kerry Marks,
the comedian who I worked with in Australia
in 2017 for the festivals,
and he went pretty much pale the same way I did
when I read the article,
when he was hearing all about it.
It's such a weird thing to just...
And then I presented him the article,
and for the next three days, he was just subdued.
He was, like, distant, you know, as he's in his 50s,
and he's realised that...
And this is how it feels.
It doesn't feel like you've found out you've got a disability.
It feels like you've found out everybody else has got a superpower.
Like, all of a sudden, you're just walking about,
enjoying the day, walking, running, jogging,
and then you find out everybody else can fly.
Yeah. And you just haven't known about it for 35 years, and then running, jogging, and then you find out everybody else can fly. Yeah.
And you just haven't known about it for 35 years.
And then your mate just goes, bye, and then flies off.
You're like, oh shit, you guys can do that.
But I think comparing yourself to other people is the root
to sadness, anyway. So, like, I don't
look at that, I look at it going, well,
before I read that article, I was fine.
You know? So I'm only going to be sad if then I
compare myself to everybody else and go, oh, fuck. Right, but we're all having a great time, mate. Yeah, but I can't... Look, I was fine, you know, so I'm only going to be sad if then I compare myself to everybody else and go, oh, fuck.
But we're all having a great time, mate.
Yeah, but I can't...
Look, I've got two dogs dancing in my head right now.
Yeah.
Just cheer me up.
Right, imagine them dying.
Oh, even happier.
See, I can't get jealous.
No?
Not really.
Is that something else you really can't do?
You can't imagine.
Are you autistic?
No, I just mean, when I say I can't get jealous
it's like
even if I did start
getting jealous
I think my wife was like
I mean I've been away
for four weeks
she couldn't be getting
up to anything
but I can't draw
that picture
I don't have to watch her
getting you know
what she does
all those things
I guess that is
one of the advantages
I just think
because to me
I can't imagine
it's so hard to understand what actually visualisation in your head is because it's not I guess that is one of the advantages. I just think, because to me, I can't imagine,
it's so hard to understand what actually visualisation in your head is because it's not like it's over your eyesight.
It's just, it's kind of like there.
Is it like a head-up display?
Have you ever seen that?
No, it's not a HUD, no.
Like the cockpits of a Harrier jump jet
that have like a green hologram come up over the image.
No, I couldn't Photoshop your face in my own head
now. If I could, I would.
I think it's
like a prescription as well. I think some people
have got, I think it's on a
spectrum.
In fact, there's actually,
because when I started digging online to find out
information about it, there was this
scientist that was, mad scientist guy,
trying to get email addresses of people that feel like they're affected by it so you can
do some kind of seminar yeah and then ages later like a year and a half later so more recently
this email arrived for both me and kerry saying that they're doing a seminar for people with
aphantasia and hyper aphantasia so we looked up what hyper aphantasia was and it's the opposite
effect with like an over vivid imagination where you can't, like, really control it.
So I guess it would be, like, tripping balls all the time.
Or just what, like, actual hallucinations?
I don't know. Whatever you've got times a million, I don't know what that is.
So me and Kerry decided not to go to the seminar
because it was like putting homeless people in with billionaires.
The absolute fucking opposites.
Yeah, they're just strutting around
like they own the place
just because they can actually
picture themselves
owning the place.
So yeah,
Natalie handed me the article
and then went to sleep.
She had work in the morning.
I don't.
Do you dream?
Yeah, that's what's strange.
I dream, but...
And I've also hallucinated
when I take... Not too much when I take mushrooms and acid, but when strange. I dream, but... And I've also hallucinated when I take...
Not too much when I take mushrooms and acid,
but when I took DMT,
like, my mind's eye was way open there
because I went down the fucking rabbit hole.
So you reckon it's just fucking lazy?
I think I...
Like I said, I think it just has a prescription
in acids, like it's putting its glasses on.
I just find it...
Because this obviously
must have been a condition
for years and years
and years and years.
But how do you identify
when you don't know
how other people
see things in their head?
How do you,
like, you can't compare it?
Right.
Because even in a discussion
it's hard to imagine
not being able to.
And what's nuts is like,
I'll still say imagine
and I'll still say visualize
because I mean it
but I don't mean it.
You can't use those.
Those are our words.
I just feel like the term vision and image that I would touch to those words I just I don't have an image I don't have a vision but I can
imagine I can visualize without images no no no I guess you just a little bit
you're gluten intolerant fuck off that true. I can't handle bread.
I think that's a fucking bad sign of evolution
when...
How did it just happen
overnight?
Can that happen?
Can you be not gluten intolerant
for 28 years?
Yeah.
And then just all of a sudden...
I think it's either
one of two things.
Either one,
I spend too much time in LA
and it's just like fucking
not photosynthesis.
What's the other one?
Not photosynthesis. What's the other one? Not photosynthesis.
It's the one where you can absorb powers, not powers.
I don't know what you're talking about.
That doesn't matter.
No, it does.
Osmosis, thank you very much.
This is great.
This is way better.
If you'd normally have a podcast,
that would take us 30 minutes in most of the podcasts.
Let's just turn it off by that.
Oh, people scream at the podcast
when we're getting something wrong,
and they just go, oh, you guys are idiots.
Yeah, so I imagine you you go through osmosis
from all the pretentious people in LA
or alternatively, what my doctor
was saying, is if you ever go through
periods of eating lots of bread, which is my
everyday life, and then you go through periods
of not eating bread, which is like when I get back from
touring, I'm cutting out carbs and stuff just to
lose weight. Turns out your body can
just fucking forget how to break down gluten. It just goes
nah, never again. You had your
chance. Look who's come crawling
back. So does that mean
if you can get gluten intolerance
does that mean you can like lose it?
I'm trying. I've not changed
my diet in any single way. I'm still forcing
pizza down there every day and I'm just
at this point it's, yeah, I'm just
holding the gun to just see what happens. See who caves
first. I mean I'm sh holding the gun to just see what happens. See who caves first.
I mean, I'm shedding myself a lot more regularly. I think I'm allergic to cheese, but I just deal with it.
Is this when you get...
It's the weirdest reaction.
So if I eat cheese, my cheeks sweat.
Just in like a little line under my cheeks.
Not the rest of my body, just my face.
Just warped.
Yeah, like if you threw a handful of dust at my face it would just click there
like an American footballer
right
this is what we play for
go for some cheese
like Nelly
like Nelly
so
I have my face
sweats when I eat cheese
and I'm like
this is definitely a reaction
like a legit reaction
or an intolerance
but like
who gives a fuck
there was not a period
where you thought
that you got that from...
No, what was it
when you got your head kicked in?
Yeah.
This was...
What are you looking for?
The water.
The water.
You got the truth.
All right.
Truth for all the new listeners.
It's Scottish for dry mouth.
Scottish for dry mouth.
It normally comes on
when you're very, very high.
So, did you, what was it?
When you were crying from your nose,
what happened after you got your head kicked?
I've had a few of these.
Now that's a different one, the crying from the nose thing.
Is this just the Kai's weird ailments podcast?
You're one of the most interesting but broken people I know,
and I think there should be a case study on you every week.
That's really mean.
It's meant to be.
That's what I was aiming for.
It seemed like it should have been wrapped up in a compliment,
but it wasn't.
You just said it in a way that it was packaged like,
it was one of the most damaged and broken people.
I said it with the tone of it was going to end somewhere nice and pretty.
Like one of them shit sandwiches, you know,
when you give me the, yeah, you've got a lot of damage,
but you've got character and a bit of spark.
Just none of that, man.
You've got to subscribe to the rest of it.
That's why I lure you in.
So the first one was when I was in a jet ski accident
and I woke up in the ambulance.
You were jet skiing where?
I was jet skiing in the North Sea,
and just off the coast of Blythe, which is near Newcastle.
So jet skiing, having a good time, having fun,
woke up in the ambulance.
And what had happened apparently is like, I'd hit a big wave, come off the front,
I'd either hit my face off the water or the handlebars,
and I was unconscious, and another jet skier got me out and brought me back.
And then the paramedics came.
I was breathing, but I was unconscious.
And the paramedics went to cut me out of the wetsuit,
but my friend Craig, whose girlfriend it belonged to,
it was his girlfriend's wetsuit.
Okay, okay.
And you were wearing it.
Yeah, he realised that
the paramedics were going to cut into his
hundreds of pounds worth of equipment
and then bundled them out the way and ripped my
limp, lifeless body out.
Out of the wetsuit.
Get off him.
He just wrenched me out the wetsuit.
And I lay there, nude,
getting monitored.
He starts taking off your rings.
Yeah.
And then they put me in the ambulance,
and I woke up in the ambulance,
just a bit confused as to where I was and shit, right?
And they had me under 24-hour surveillance.
And people just kept rolling through
and making notes and stuff,
and chatting to us,
and I was talking back to them,
and they seemed confused that I was talking. And they like that seems to be a problem but they weren't
revealing anything to me there was people coming like students coming in to learn from me
genuinely like it was something was going down that they weren't telling me about don't make
it again it's just the first time they've seen something like you in a hospital like that
like they've just come in a bit like how can he afford a jet ski so i woke and so i'm trying to figure out
what's the problem why everybody's coming in and out and then eventually when they found out what
the problem was they come through with a smile relieved to tell me everything's okay and they
told me what the problem was and why they were so concerned it's because there was water flowing out
my nose and they took a sample of the water and it had protein in it,
which meant they thought it was brain fluid.
Oh, Jesus.
So if brain fluid's coming out of my nose,
I shouldn't be talking to them.
I shouldn't just be like,
oh, yeah, I'm fine.
Is the jet ski okay?
So that's why they were bewildered, right?
That must be the closest thing
they'd ever experienced to a zombie.
It's like, the fact that he's shut it, and he just
keeps walking, like, he should be dead, this
makes no sense. He's far too stupid to realise
that his brain's been ruptured.
Too stupid to die.
So they'd done the tests, and this
body fluid, whatever the bodily fluid was,
that was coming out of my nose, because it definitely wasn't sea water
because of the content.
It turned out it was I'd bust my tear gland,
ruptured tear gland,
so where I cry from all the time,
had bust and started leaking down my nose.
I was crying out of my nose.
So when they took the sample...
I guess it's a much more efficient way to cry,
because if you're crying, you've got to blow your nose
and wipe your eyes
I would say that was a growth in evolution
it'd be like peeing and shitting out the same hole
why do they have to be different
well you don't do that
I thought everybody did that
I can't find out everything about myself
so that was that one
the other one was related to the cheese sweats I was having
you know when you google something when you google your symptoms So that was that one. The other one was related to the cheese sweats I was having.
You know when you Google something, when you Google your symptoms,
and you never Google your symptoms.
Yeah, because Google just goes, you're dead.
Go to a doctor and let them Google it.
They can filter the bullshit.
They've just got a faster internet connection.
Yeah.
I Googled about, I thought I was sweating from my cheeks,
so far I've been just on a regular basis, even when I was cold. I hadn't attributed it to the cheese yet.
Oh.
Right. So I'm googling what it could be. And I discovered this thing called Frey's
Syndrome. And Frey's Syndrome is when somebody's had a bang to the head and they can like do
like something to your neurological pathways. And every time you're meant to salivate,
then you'll sweat instead.
It'll activate your sweat glands instead of your saliva glands.
So you become more efficient.
Your tears are coming out your nose,
but now your saliva's coming out your voice.
It's coming out my face.
Are you an actual slug?
Yeah.
I'm just wired drunk.
You're absolutely wired drunk.
I'm like a prototype android. And they're like, ah, we've just got some of the... No, you're absolutely wired wrong I'm like a prototype android
and they're like
ah we've just got some of the
no you're more like a knockoff
no but it wasn't that
it turned out like
it's just because I googled it
but the thing about that was
when you've had a bank of the head
that's when you can develop
phrase syndrome
and I'd just been beat up
by Dorman
not our Dorman
by a team of security
yeah
let's tell that story
in Newcastle
I love this story why can't any of the stories be about you by a team of security. Yeah. Let's tell that story. In Newcastle.
I love this story.
Why can't any of the stories be about you?
This is just a podcast.
It's not just today.
Not when you've got my... Now I'm showing off in front of my friends.
Because I don't cry from my nose
and I've never been in a fight.
The only time I've ever been close to being in a fight
is you stepped in before I was even aware it was happening.
I got headbutted in Glasgow once, and
I've got no self-defence mechanism, and
by the time I opened my eyes,
the guy that had headbutted me, Kai had him on the
floor, and was just punching his head
into the ground. You touched my boy?
You put his hands on my boy?
He's your best friend?
I get headbutted. I then have to protect
the guy who's just fought me
for no reason
by pulling Kai off of him
and I said to Kai
I was like
you need to learn
when a fight's over
and he went
you need to learn
when a fight's fucking started
and I was like
well that's actually
a fair point
so
the
the
the door
so I had a bang to the head
I remember this one vividly
because this was
I was at
I was in a...
I was at home
and it was about
three in the morning
and I was...
Home was Edinburgh.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So I was...
We were just off tour,
I think.
I had a couple of days off
so I was getting high
playing FIFA
and I get a call
at 3am from you
and we never call each other.
Was it on FaceTime
when Face was bust up?
Yeah.
I just had like
two big fat
Mick Jagger
lips. Yeah when we spend so much time on the road together that whenever we're not on the road
together we very rarely stay in contact. We know we're going to see each other within a couple of
weeks. I just need a bit of time away from you. I think it's every hour of every day. I mean I am
yeah every hour of every day at each other's company. At least we don't share rooms anymore.
So the second you FaceTime me, I'm like...
Because normally if Natalie ever phones me,
I assume that you're dead.
And whenever I phone her, she assumes you're dead,
which tells you a lot about how you live your life.
We just call each other all the time.
And every day, like, I'm dead again.
It's just wishful thinking, I think, at this point.
So you FaceTime me, and I'm like,
this is going to be very interesting.
And for a man who has a black eye,
is bleeding profusely from his face,
and I think had a bit of a chipped tooth,
or was it no chipped tooth?
Yeah, I got a chipped tooth.
Chipped tooth.
Had the biggest fucking grin on your face,
like to the level of, what's the name of the guy in Fight Club?
Tyler Durden.
Just that level of, I'm like,
you've clearly just been beaten up.
Yeah.
So I phoned thought, what happened?
So this is the gist of it.
We went to a Newcastle match, Newcastle were playing Bolton, it was 3-0 to Newcastle.
Hadn't been off, I scored that wonderful goal.
Oh yeah, yeah.
So this is 2012.
We'll go out for a drink afterwards, there's just about eight or nine of us from Blythe,
and we're going out and we're in this bar called Purdue, which is jumping and lively, We'll go out for a drink afterwards. There's just about eight or nine of us from Blythe.
And we're going out and we're in this bar called Perdue,
which is jumpin' and lively,
and we just wanted to chat to each other.
So we went to the bar on the side of it.
And so it's just like a little lounge.
I guess a room a bit like this, dimmed lights.
But music playing.
Where you're in class.
Yeah, music playing and just,
you're gonna have a conversation.
So one of my friends has had a few beers
and he just falls asleep in one of the comfy chairs.
And we're all at the other side of the bar chatting.
And then the doorman comes along,
sees him asleep in the chair, and starts
wrenching him out of the chair to get him out of the pub.
Like throwing him out as if he threw a glass
across the bar. Yeah, as opposed to just being asleep.
As opposed to, hey, wake up, mate.
No minute sleeping in a nightclub. It's time for you to go home.
He was like wrenching him out of the chair.
And I just got defensive, but I didn't run in
and headbutt him.
I just ran in and I got between.
I was like, oh, he's with us, we'll look after him,
we'll keep him awake until the taxi comes.
It was like 15 minutes before the taxi came.
I had half a pint left each.
And we're waiting for our minibus.
And he just went, fuck it, I'll throw you out.
And he grabbed my arms and he started pulling me
out of the pub and I grabbed the side of the door like that.
And when I grabbed the side of the door, he just started laying at the side of the door he just started laying at the back of my head and then it just become like the fucking Wild West.
So he punched you in the back of the head?
He punched me in the back of the head and like all my friends are at the bar and stuff
I ended up like getting him in a headlock and like holding him in it and then a bunch of his other door staff ran
through and it was just like...
One of my favorite parts of this story is Kai's older brother, Gab.
Yeah, I get to that.
Alright.
I get to that.
I get to that.
Yeah.
Yeah, so like
that all goes on in there
we get thrown out
I get a good
I get a good shot on him
in the midst of it
so like
he's a bit bloodied up
you need him in the face
I need him in the face
and I guess
outside the bar
and we'll go across
the other side of the road
and like
me and my friends
are just flustered
we went from
having a nice pint
to staying
just having a nice time you know and then all of a sudden
we've just been lynched it will all battered up and we're just dusting each
other down this day give each other hugs and show right and then a adrenaline
pump adrenaline pumping and then they must have put a call out to the other
doors in Newcastle there's a fucking that door staff yeah cuz the fucking
army of them just come round and just made a circle around me and kept my friends back.
It was like a dog ring, like a dog fight.
It pinned you down and stamped on your head.
It was a genuine murder attempt.
But again, too stupid to die.
It was a proper shoe-in.
They kicked him in the face and shit, right?
And then you couldn't press charges.
So I went to press charges.
The first thing I done when I got back
is phone the police and make a statement and
I got through a contact, I got a solicitor and then arranged to meet and make a proper statement with the solicitor.
Yeah.
So I went to the police station the next day and they had a picture of the guy, they knew who it was, they had a video and said it was over the road and showed me over the road him kicking me in the face,'s him. We've identified that the same he's kicking in the face. He doesn't have a leg to stand on
Yeah, it's not even if it was in his bar. You may have an argument. It's over the road
It's a revenge claim, but whatever happened in there, which is a separate case whatever happened here
It wasn't on his jurisdiction on his badge fucking and he just went but the problem is
This is your brother and he showed a
picture of my
brother in the bar
grabbing one of the
bouncers and my
brother was on
steroids at the time
like it was fucking
massive and he got
the doorman and he
threw him out the
door and then shut
the doors and it's
in the bouncer
statement that he
said to the doorman
you're bored
you're banned
from the pub
so he said this guy here has been assaulted by your brother
and he's pressing charges against your brother
he's only going to drop charges against your brother
if you drop charges against him
and I went
fucking locking my brother up
I paid the contract
he's just looking at me like
I know my brother's going to be fine in prison
I don't know if you've seen the same video I have
he's going to be fucking king of the place.
Yeah, I visit him once a year.
Conjugal, yeah.
Bring him cake.
Just so he thinks there's going to be something in it,
but there's not.
Just cake.
Yeah, you've somehow managed to make him.
He's diabetic.
That's where his injections are for his diabetes.
So yes, I had to drop the charges but he did lose his doorman's badge because even though
they didn't take him to the criminal courts or anything, what he'd done was against the
regulations.
I mean, bare minimum, against social etiquette, like an actual hate crime.
He lost his job and I imagine as a redneck security guard like that, he probably hasn't
got much else.
No, it's probably better for the best.
So we're now about three weeks into the tour.
We've done...
Should we talk about Paris?
Didn't we talk about that at the museum?
No, but I want to talk more about the gig
because it was one of those gigs
that absolutely should not have worked.
It was amazing.
It was on a boat.
It was like subterranean on a boat. It was like subterranean on a boat.
It was like you get on the boat and the bar's like.
Yeah, so it was on the River Seine
and it's downstairs, so it's right in the under bit.
Beautiful stage, shouldn't have worked,
but being on stage was one of the surrealist things.
Because I drink when I'm on stage,
so I'm used to being a bit lightheaded.
But because there's no windows, it's so closed off,
you forget that you're in a boat because it looks like you're in a
and occasionally that boat goes by
and sends like a wave under it
and you just have to balance yourself
just feeling dead weird
I'm surprised nobody gets seasick or any of that stuff
because you've got nothing
to compare, it's like the reason you can't read
when you're driving
when somebody else is driving
the reason you can't read while you're driving is because somebody else is driving. The reason you can't read
while you're driving is because that's massively illegal, albeit very impressive, is because
your vision's focusing on that one bit there where everything else is moving and your brain's
just unable to process that. But seasickness is, I guess, similar because the landscape's
moving around. But when you're in there, you're just, I guess it's like being on a fucking
bouncy castle, but you can't fucking see it's like being on fucking like a bouncy castle
but you can't fucking
see anything
like being in a womb
yeah that's where you went
yeah
I was wondering
where you were going
I didn't expect womb
no I was just meaning
the sounds of the water
and a bunch of other people
but it was nice
that you could like
be stood on top of the boat
just watching boats go by
people walk by
and then all of a sudden
you're just down
and you're in a venue
it just seemed like
the weirdest switch of scenario
yeah yeah
real I can't even say I was going to say it was an underground club but it wasn't it was underwater and then all of a sudden you're just down in your own venue. It just seemed like we had a switch of scenario. Yeah, yeah, real.
And it came.
I can't even say, I was gonna say
it was an underground club, but it wasn't.
It was underwater.
It was recommended by Eddie Izzard, right?
Yep.
Because he, because you weren't gonna gig in Paris again
because he didn't enjoy it.
Well, the first time we gigged in Paris,
I didn't enjoy it that much
because the thing we enjoy about you gigging in Europe
is I want to gig to the locals.
Like if I come to Amsterdam, I want to gig to the people that live here. If I gig in Romania, I want to gig to the locals. Like if I come to Amsterdam, I want to gig to the people
that live here. If I gig in Romania, I want to gig to
Romanian people. I don't want to go to places
and gig to British people
because British people abroad
suck.
And that was proved when we went to...
It is true. It's like I said, they're the ones
that'll be Brexit voters.
They'll be anti-immigrant and then they'll go
to another country and be an immigrant
and still maintain the same belief system.
Yeah, a lot of Brexit voters live in Benidorm
and just have no idea why that
is immensely hypocritical.
So, yeah, that's
the audience we got the first day we came to Paris.
Yeah, and obviously British people that
live in France are miserable
because the British culture
is being overly polite, and the British culture is being overly polite
and the French culture is the absolute polar opposite of that.
Yeah, they...
Do they think it's cool to have bad manners?
Is that the shtick in France?
Are they like, oh, I've got bad manners, so I'm kind of trendy?
I don't know.
Is it measured?
I reckon...
For the French people I've spoken to,
it's genuinely just part of
the culture.
Like they don't, because they don't see it as offensive, they don't see it as rude to
each other at all.
That's just how they talk to each other.
It's only us that find it rude.
It's efficient communication.
Yeah, yeah.
None of this, I mean it's, yeah.
If America's the too far version with the friendliness, people will talk to you in elevators,
which I think is a death penalty offense.. Like, we have seven seconds together.
I do not need to know your name
or how your day's going.
Like, after this,
you are just merely a background.
You're such a hostage
if someone talks to you in an elevator.
Fuck, it's just...
There's no escape.
You just sit there and,
how's your day?
None of your fucking business.
Absolutely none.
Would it be...
Them talking to you in an elevator,
would it be less rude
if you just then put your fingers
in your ears and went,
la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, ears and went, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
Somehow minds would be, yeah, that would be rude.
That scene is rude.
It's an equivalent of, like, imagine you're just in a traffic jam, right,
and someone pulls up next to you, and they just knock on your window.
Hi-ya!
How's your day?
Now you go away.
Are you here on holiday?
Yeah.
So that's the American
level of sort of friendliness. And again,
if you're, because we find
the French rude, the counter is
we find the Americans suspicious.
That level of friendliness,
it takes a while to trust.
Because when you say, hey, how are you, to anyone in the
UK, you've stopped listening.
You don't care how they do it. Hey, how are you? I'm good, how are you?
Yeah, that's it, the answer to the question. Answer to the same question. How. Hey, how are you? I'm good, how are you? That's it, the answer to the question.
The answer to the same question.
How are you?
How are you?
Good, fine, how are you?
Two questions, no answers.
Solid.
It's pure script, right?
It's pure just script.
You go through it because it appears polite
whereas you don't actually care.
The Americans give a shit.
They go, hey, how are you?
You go, good.
They're like, that's awesome.
How are you?
And they're like, well, my wife just left me.
And you're like, what the fuck happened?
Yeah, I got up late this morning and missed the bus. You're like, oh, awesome, how are you? and they're like, well my wife just left me and you're like, what the fuck happened? yeah, I got up late this morning
missed the bus, you're like, oh fuck no
I didn't see you get your diary out
that way I think
I don't know how
but apparently the French are quite nice to American tourists
I think they're just horrible to us
from what I've heard
I think that may be a lot of places
I think a lot of places hate the English I think a lot of places hate the English.
Yeah, me too.
I think a lot of places
hate the English.
Sometimes you get bad service
in France or in Spain
or somewhere like that.
I'm like,
there's probably had so many
shit English people
that have seen an English person
and went,
oh, fuck this guy.
Was it Ryan Cullen
who's Irish?
Yeah.
He was getting bad service
in a restaurant
and then somebody worked out
he was Irish
and apologised profusely
for being rude to him.
He was like,
oh shit,
sorry,
I thought you were English.
I think that's what happened.
I've had it in places
where you just go over
and go,
are you from England?
No, Scotland.
Hey!
And you're like,
thank God for that
fucking free pass.
Yeah,
but you guys have only
got that free pass
because you don't have
any big football,
you're not in any
football tournaments
because your fans
would still be
shit football fans
abroad
but you never get
a chance to be
no absolutely
no Tartan Army
every time we've
appeared in the
World Cup
we're given the
fans of the year
award for the past
well three times
we've been in
it's going all the
way back to the
1200s
that's a lie
of course it is
you fucking idiot
not that winning
the award
but the Tartan Army winning the yeah, but the time I only won a few.
Yeah, but no,
I don't even think,
I don't know why football
was fucking invented.
I think your hooligans
would be the worst.
Absolutely not.
Because Scottish,
like, English mad cunts
are just annoying.
Scottish mad cunts
are terrifying.
Well, to you,
but I,
I've been,
I mean,
there is a difference
between rugby games
and football games,
but, I mean,
and it has been a while since we've been in the World Cup.
Yeah, but rugby doesn't get supported by hooligans.
It gets played by them.
It gets watched by civilised people.
Yeah, well, rugby stadiums in Scotland,
you're allowed to drink regardless of what time the game is.
Yeah, they treat you like adults.
Yeah, whereas for the Celtic Rangers derby in Glasgow,
they legally cannot have a match between those two
that starts any later than 12.30
because of the amount of people pre-drink.
If it's 7 o'clock, they'll...
I mean, people are still drunk at these games on a Sunday.
The Lord's Day.
Apparently, cricket's like that.
Apparently, cricket's just like...
Because it's such a long, drawn-out game
that it's just a day on the pith.
I could get by, I could just...
Can you, because it's legal to smoke weed here and in LA, can they smoke while they're
watching a game?
I don't know, well, I think it's still about smoking laws.
Like you can't, I don't think you're allowed to smoke in a football stadium, are you?
Not in the UK but then...
No, not in America either, I don't think.
I don't think you would you
want to watch a game high like in a stadium like would it just be the worst
thing I guess it's like you know when the UFC is in Japan and they don't
really cheer they just like observe it yeah and it's a kind of hushed silence
while they watch the fights it's kind of like creepy atmosphere much like a lot
of UFC fighters just watch the match just like that like not not on the edge
yes see not like following the ball. You'd just be, yeah, sure.
I don't know.
I think most things are very, very good high.
And that's not a level of social interaction.
You just need to fucking...
The colours alone will make you happy.
You are usually pleased.
I very much am, especially when you're high.
Oh, we played this fucking awesome arcade game when I was stoned before.
I can't remember the name of it, so let's cut that a bit short.
Cut it out, because then it'll just be me trying to explain a game that I hardly knew the rules to anyway.
Yeah, let's brush over that.
Speaking of games, shall we go on to Muggle Corner?
Yes, do you want to introduce Muggle Corner to the new listeners?
Right, for the new listeners, Muggle is a term coined by J.K. Rowling the very famous uh book harry potter which i'm a massive massive massive fan of uh muggle refers to people who are
not magic uh they lack magic and so we've started using that term in everyday life to discover to
describe people who also lack magic these aren't bad people they're also not a person specifically
people have muggle traits yeah like i go to my mom and dad's house right they've got a photo who also lack magic. These aren't bad people. They're also not a person specifically. They're not a person specifically.
People have muggle traits.
Yeah.
Like, I go to my mum and dad's house, right,
and they've got a photo frame with me
and my wife, my brother and his girlfriend,
my sister and her boyfriend,
and it's got live, laugh, love.
It's the pictures of their boys and their girl.
And that is muggly as shit.
That's live, laugh, love,
and that's fucking adorable,
but my mum's a muggle.
Aye, absolutely.
That's a muggle shit.
Like, muggles,
one of the other words we've always done
is muggles queue for the airplane i've never understood you're given an assigned seat and a
sign seat and everybody's right get on the plane you're like we're all going to the same place you
fucking daft bastards like there's no nobody's going to be on my seat it's not a bus it's not
free-for-all so each week we come up with something muggles they'll put on facebook like
hive mind and then ask just ask Facebook a question that they could
have easily googled. Yeah. So they're not malicious. They're not all bad.
We're guilty of most of these things ourselves. But the rule is we each
come forward to pitch a muggle thing and then if both of us agree anyone
who does this including ourselves has to go stand in the corner for 30 seconds. And just
think about what a shit muggle they are.
Muggles walk in a line on a pavement.
Walk in a line?
You know, a fucking... Oh, muggles don't.
No? Are you kidding? On a pavement?
Like if the... Like in a... No, like
a side-by-side fucking line. Oh, yeah, yeah,
yeah, right. I thought you meant like in a single
file line. No, no, those are the best ones.
Yeah, good. Because I hate... Like,
it's like couples that will refuse to unhold hands, even if going, those are the best ones. Yeah, good. Because I hate, it's like couples that will refuse
to unhold hands
even if going
single file is the
best option.
They'll just go,
but we come as a two.
Nah, single file up,
hide your numbers.
Do you know what
you should do?
Next time you see
two people refusing
to unhold hands,
go grab one of their
hands and just start
swinging them like
dads do to their kids.
Just really ruin it
for them.
Yes.
I can't,
it's just,
it's such a level of
social selfishness
to just not be aware of,
like,
you're on a busy fucking street,
especially in London,
and I imagine this is quite bad for you,
trying to fucking get somewhere
and there's just four twats
just fucking looking at the sky.
Looking around.
Like,
architecture's beautiful
and it's like,
I'm going to make you look at the pavement.
Have you seen those people? and it's one of the most
passive aggressive things
and I wish I had the courage
to do it right
but you can get rings
right
with fucking little
bike bells on it
ah yeah
and you just walk behind them
and you just go
ding ding ding
and people just hear it
and they go
ah
and then you just walk
straight through
and that would appear rude right
absolutely
you'd look rude
if you were like
ding ding
but then you put like
a bit of metal between your legs and do it and it's fine yeah yeah so why not if you're going to be rude, right? Absolutely. You'd look rude if you were like, ding, ding, but then you put a bit of metal between your legs and do it,
and it's fine.
Yeah, yeah.
So why not, if you're going faster, whether you're on a bike
or whether you're on foot, if you're going faster, ring the bell.
You should start doing the air horn.
Just do custom ones.
So what you could do is, if people are going to get aggressive to you
because you're ringing a bell and start fights,
you could get one that's a knuckle duster. So you ring the bell, if people are going to get like aggressive to you because you're ringing a bell and start fighting, you could get one
that's a knuckle duster.
So like,
you ring the bell
and someone's like,
you're telling me to get up.
Yeah.
No,
I think,
yeah,
do you want to
sweat cheese from your face
and get it?
Because if you get beaten up again,
I can't imagine
what other mental conditions
you're going to get.
The one I do in airports
and the reason this annoys me so much
is in airports is,
I'm glad that you arrived
at the airport on time.
Well done you.
I did not.
Can you not walk?
Like, everyone in this airport is probably in a hurry at some fucking point.
Yeah.
And just people, again, walking around, especially in the tight tunnels.
Yeah, everyone should just assume to be in a hurry in an airport.
Yeah.
For the people behind you, at least.
I've started doing something incredibly rude.
But if it's an emergency, I'd still get in there.
Just properly running and just stamping my foot mid-walk.
And people go, ah!
And you're like, sorry, I'll apologise for that bit.
You can only do it with your headphones on, though.
Yes.
Like, you can't be rude if you can hear it.
But, you know, if you've got your headphones on
and some loud music, you do that,
it's almost like you didn't do it.
Like, you couldn't hear it, and then you fart.
Be on your way.
I hate in airports because, like you were saying,
on footpathss at least you know
the route right
in airports
people are just kind of
going in different directions
it's a lot like
it's a lot like
being a snowboarder
snowboarding
and skiers
exactly what I was going to say
when you've been going snowboarding
and you've been doing this fast
right
you learn
learn people's vectors
and their angles
and kind of where they're going
and at what pace
so you know the quickest route
and other people just don't.
Yeah.
And by other people
we mean skiers.
Yeah.
Skiers.
We're in a room
full of people with money.
Oh yeah.
They're all skiers.
Snowboarding is such
new money, isn't it?
Like nobody starts
learning a snowboard.
Like everyone skis
from an early age.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I mean I did.
But then if you're like 26
and then you go onto the mountain
you're like,
well, I didn't learn as a child so i'm just gonna get the one that looks cool
no i just the reason i switched from skiing to snowboarding is i just got to a stage of skiing
where i'm just like this is i'll kill myself if i go this fast like i do have no faith i'll
happily break a rib or a tailbone but when you're just on skiing you can get to such a speed that
i'm like i'm gonna go back in time at this point.
Yeah, this is something that,
I agree that skiing's faster than snowboarding.
That's not even up for debate, right?
But people use that as an argument for why skiing's better,
but don't apply it.
If anybody I know that says skiing's faster than snowboarding,
I've never been, I don't get overtaken by that many skiers.
Well, it's because you're always face down in the snow,
because trust me, I've been with you, and you do.
We do get overtaken a lot by skiers. That's because you're always face down in the snow, because trust me, I've been with you, and you do. We do get overtaken a lot by skiers.
No. The odd one
that weighs down.
But most of them, I would say like
90% of the skiers are just like really
slow, grind,
feathering. And that's because
we're on the fucking easy slopes.
Like all of the
very fast skiers are the fucking mad cunts that are going face down on the fucking easy slopes. Like, all of the very fast skaters
are the fucking
mad cunts
that are going face down
on the double diamonds.
Are you happy with
my want to go in the corner?
Well,
the people not getting,
like,
going in horizontal lines
across pavements
without having any self-awareness.
100% that's it.
Right,
so if you do that,
even if you've done it accidentally,
which I know I have.
Sometimes I get confused between what's muggly
and what's just a bit rude.
Well, I think...
But I think it is because it's not aware.
It's just like blissful unawareness, isn't it?
Yeah, it's ignorance.
So it's not a bit like...
You're turning your...
They're not being obnoxious.
No, but they're just turning their brain off for a bit
and every time that happens,
we kind of towards muggle corner.
What's yours?
Mine is... And this is what I discussed with Natalie and Kat,
is Muggles will ask you how you slept.
As if that conversation is going to go anywhere.
As if that conversation is going to go anywhere fun or interesting.
You know, you're just going to be that kind of,
oh, yeah, slept great, slept like a baby, woke up without my alarm, fantastic.
What should we talk about now?
I wish that didn't happen.
Or it's going to be like,
I have fucking slept terrible.
I've been tossing and turning all night.
I'm fucking knackered.
You look fresh as a daisy.
Fuck off out of my face.
We have shit questions.
Like, there's no reason.
Like, oh, let's do this dance then.
Let's talk about my sleep.
So you can talk about yours
because there's clearly a reason you asked
tell us about your dream
you dickhead
I reckon this is
normally asked by people
who think dream
interpretations
is
oh yeah
do you believe in that
any like
dream interpretations
I think you can have
stuff on your mind
and it can manifest
in your dreams
oh I think
yeah definitely think that
I think stuff that you do
during the day obviously affects your dreams but I don I think, yeah, definitely think that. I think stuff that you do during the day obviously affects your teeth.
But I don't think, like, if you see an eagle flying west,
your wife's going to get pregnant shit.
Ah, yeah, that's hocus pocus, isn't it?
Yeah, if your teeth fall out, you tell lies all the time.
It's like, well, I can't double check that because I'm not going to stop lying.
I think we're actually I've got it's absolutely
shit crack to have
I think it's
similar to where
when hairdressers ask you
where you're going
on your holidays
at least with holidays
you can start
like sharing
like if you go
I'm going to Ibiza
and then like
I got married to Ibiza
and you start like
it's a jump off
like it can
lead to other conversations
it can lead to other things
but like
that is just like a thud,
just conversation dead end right on your lap.
Because I guess it's not even what did you dream,
it's just how did you sleep?
Fine, sweet, my turn.
I had three wanks because I couldn't.
I'm getting really overshared.
Couldn't stop thinking about you cheating on us.
How did you sleep? Not well. I just sleep not well.
I just found out I've got no fucking imagination.
Oh, man.
All right, I think we should go. So that's going in the middle corner, right?
100% going in.
And again, look, if you've asked that question before,
which to be fair, I've asked that question
definitely several times,
and I will ask it again,
but I'll hold my hand up a minute,
and after this, I'll go stand in the corner for 30 goddamn seconds.
Right.
Because, yeah.
Right, now this is the bit
that'll be interesting.
This is our favourite bit of the podcast
and basically...
It's been running now since 2016
when we started.
We've done two a week.
And each time there's a podcast
we insult each other's dad ten times.
So there has been over 1,000... been way over a thousand dad insults.
Yeah, it's basically started with...
The well is running dry.
We basically realised that, you know, your mum jokes were outdated, sexist, fatists.
It's time for the dads to get it.
Aye, it's time to rinse people's dads and why not each other's.
Kai, your dad's got them apple-bottom jeans
and the boots with the fur.
Is it?
Yeah, we're going to go for a take two,
but we've got a live audience here, so I can't.
Oh, no.
Your dad has a pleather gimp suit.
What's pleather?
Like plastic leather.
Like fake leather.
Oh, God.
Penny pinching.
Your dad uses mouthwash as aftershave.
He does it for all the vampires he's going to pull your dad dressed your granddad in his own best suit for his funeral but now he wants it back
your dad cuts his limbs out with tylenol and then asks your mum if she regrets marrying such a bad boy.
Your dad tried to pay his drug dealer in coins.
Your dad writes
Bible sexual fan fiction.
Your dad
whistles while he works and it blows my mind
that he can whistle with a cock in his mouth.
Your dad moonlights as a geisha.
Your dad practices what he preaches and he's always preaching to the choir, so what I'm saying, your dad did choir practice.
Your dad thinks he can talk to cats when he can barely even talk to people Your dad can't roll a joint
Neither can you
It was not about me
Your dad's Patronus is a slug
Your dad is like a pedal bin
You can slip on his toe and put garbage in his mouth
And like a pedal bin
he does absolutely nothing about it
Except getting full toe and put garbage in his mouth. And like a pedal, Benny does absolutely nothing about it.
Except getting full.
After you told your dad you were marrying Natalie, he sat out in the back garden
throwing every picture he had of you onto
the bonfire.
And he had loads.
Which is weird.
Your dad talks in Morse code
your dad is dressing up
as a mermaid
for Halloween
and is going to
drag his fat arse
around Blythe
storing M&M's
in his seashell bra
your dad overreacts
when you tell him
he can only play out
until the street lights
come on
throws a proper
wee
I cried
are you done? yep I think so unless you've got have you got another one? until the street lights come on. Just throws it properly. Yeah, I cry.
Oh, nice. Are you done?
Yeah, I think so.
Oh, mate.
Have you got another one?
Oh, you motherfucker.
Your dad released his diary on audiobook
and it's just 13 hours of him crying.
And your dad wore a life jacket when he got baptised.
Oh, very good.
All right, well.
Well, we've just had our first ever live podcast.
I know.
And our regular listeners are going to be real annoyed that none of you know who we are.
Yeah, this is one of the things for our regular listeners where they would love to be sat here right now, right?
Because they'd get a lot of, there's probably a lot of in-jokes and stuff that we didn't even realise.
And they'd love to be part of it.
But I think they're loving it even more that you guys don't listen to the podcast.
And they're probably just really enjoying some of our anxiousness
Kai's got a nervous tone in his voice
he's usually such a confident
young boy
but thank you for coming along we hope you enjoyed it
yeah
thanks Kai
