Sloss and Humphreys on the road!
Muggins and cream, cream and muggins, straight thuggin', livin' the dream.
That's our intro.
Fuckin' muggles!
Ticklin' the clit inside your head that makes you laugh.
Woohoo!
Ha ha ha!
They said it can't be done!
Are we in the same seats?
That's hack.
Aww, muggles.
Accidental ripjob in the park.
Kiss, kiss, kiss.
Or might just be cynical.
Just muggled it up on fuckin' Mugglepedia.
Where have you been since 9-11?
All the files from your phone.
We're recording, you know.
Yep.
Muggins, muggins everywhere, not a drop of cream.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is the Sloss and Humphreys on the Road podcast,
minus the sloss, because he's got no friends.
This is Kai Humphreys carrying the podcast

Co-host.

Andrew Kissy Tulip Stanley.
I apologise to any Daniel Sloss fans
that are tuning in at the podcast.
Actually, you're welcome to the majority of Muggins fans.
The majority of Muggins fans. The majority of Muggins fans. The majority of Muggins fans.
The majority of Muggins fans.
The majority are Muggins fans.
That's what I was trying to say.
He's so lazy.
I feel like even if Sloss dies, you'll still call this the Sloss podcast.
Yeah, I'll just see if his mom's got his Twitter password so I can get it out to a wider audience.
Everybody knows his Twitter password.
It's I'm amazing.
That's definitely Sloss's password.
You think so?
Yeah.
I'm great.
I'm number one.
Do you think he's got really self-assured passwords?
Of course he does.
100%.
The goat.
And then like one in ten is like,
I hope people like me.
That's the one for his bank.
That's his pin code for his card.
Takes him ages to take cash out. That'd be his pin code for his card. Takes him ages to take cash out.
How can that be his pin code for his card?
Oh, like the numbers?
Yeah, yeah.
Like an old text, yeah, yeah.
Takes him ages.
That's why he's so glad contactless is in.
How are you?
I'm good, man.
I'm kind of good.
I've been getting cranky lately.
You've been very cranky.
Is it because I'm leaving?
Is that why you're cranky?
You leave today, don't you?
I leave today, yeah, yeah.
It's my last day in Oz.
For two weeks.
Just for two weeks.
Yeah, you're going to Glasgow, as you mentioned.
Glasgow.
And you're going to come back and join us in Melbourne.
Yeah, because you mentioned on the podcast that I haven't got much long left of being happy.
You've run out of happiness.
I'm running out of happiness.
I've been such a cantankerous little fuck the last couple of days.
You have.
You have.
And you're wearing odd socks.
I'm not wearing odd socks socks I'm wearing one white sock
and one black sock
yeah that's first of all
that's odd
it's not like
periodic socks
and secondly
they're inside out as well
and thirdly
do you know how clothes work
thirdly
refer to
the podcast
three podcasts ago
no the last podcast
where you get in the
muggle corner
for commenting on
people's socks
some of these I just baited you I'm commenting on the socks because they're literally in the muggle corner for coming in on people's socks. Yeah. So maybe I just baited you.
I'm coming in on the socks
because they're literally
in front of my face.
Yeah, we're actually
top and tail in bed right now.
It's actually all I'm wearing.
I've got one black card,
you've got one white.
Yeah, I'm just wearing
Newcastle socks.
I couldn't find any
in a shop in Adelaide
so I just had to buy Tottenham socks and Tot Newcastle socks. I couldn't find any in a shop in Adelaide,
so I just had to buy Tottenham socks.
Tottenham away socks.
And Tottenham away socks.
What socks do you have?
We've only got Spurs home and away.
I'll take one of each.
Thank you.
I'm out of here.
Harry Kane for life.
Dele Alli for the win.
Anyway, yes, you're very cranky.
So let's go through little things that will make me annoyed.
First of all, I got paid on, right, this is the first thing, I got paid on. Oh my God, I thought you were going to punch down with us last night.
For Perth.
Oh yeah.
So I got paid for Perth.
Let's explain what happens.
So I have an Australian bank account and you don't.
Yeah.
So you've been getting
some Australian money
and then I've been lodging
into my bank account
and transferring it
back to the UK for you.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's a very simple process.
It shouldn't be difficult at all.
So we've been doing cash mostly.
Doing cash mostly, yeah.
I think we've done two,
three maybe.
So then you got paid
a chunk of change
from Dan Willis
and he put it into
my Australian bank account
and then you sent me a text
with the xe.com exchange rate going,
what the fuck happened to £170?
And I was like,
are you accusing me of stealing money?
I thought you were going to miscalculate
because I didn't know if you'd sent mine and yours
all in the lump
and you just misjudged how much of it was yours.
So that was why I was like,
dude, the exchange is wrong.
But that was the exchange.
The exchange annoyed us,
but that's the type of thing that happens.
That's life.
You're transferring with a bank.
TheXE.com is always way more.
What is fucking us off is that it's 2017.
And fucking, it took like two days to get from his bank account to yours.
And it still hasn't gotten from yours to mine.
And I'm like, we got paid four days ago now.
And I'm still waiting for it.
But also the funny thing was then. It's just so annoying that like, I'm just like, we got paid four days ago now, and I'm still waiting for it. But also, the funny thing was then...
It's just so annoying that, like, I'm just saying, but everyone's being paid.
How am I finding it so hard?
But what was funny was last night was that Dan was like,
you were saying, we were chatting about this,
we were chatting about the exchange and everything,
and, like, losing money or whatever, and then Dan goes,
oh, yeah, that's why I just use PayPal, because they don't do any of those charges.
And you were like, why didn't you just do that to my UK account?
Yeah, why didn't he
and then he was like
because you said
you did it through Stanley's
and I was like
yeah because you said
you couldn't
like why
why would I just go
oh forget transferring
it direct to me
why don't we just
add an extra dimension
to this
it adds 40 hours
the thing that I like more
when I'm waiting for money
than other factors
yeah
so it's
it's not even that
I need it either
it's just that
it's so annoying like i've been
getting by off some of the cash i've got here yeah and you're giving hand jobs outside pjs yeah
i would say it's bg risties for 50s that's what you call it pj o'brien's bj right you're saying
just when i'm not giving bjs i'm bjs are pjs risties for 50. So I was just getting annoyed at the process of transaction there.
There was another one where Gav,
so the mortgage money comes out of my bank account,
and I'd paid Gav the mortgage,
and Gav just needed to transfer me the money.
And then he was like, what's your bank details again?
And he already knew my bank details,
so I just sent them again.
And then he was like, oh, the bank's shut, I'll send it on Monday
and I was like, oh that's totally fine
but is it the 90s?
Do you just want to send us a cheque?
Didn't he say as well, at the bank's show
I don't want to go through my bank account
I was like, calm down Pablo Escobar
you're not being tagged
So then after I just got all cranky
because when he says I'll pay it on Monday
I was like, is it the 90s, do you want to send a cheque?
I went, it's fine, I'll says I'll pay it on Monday it was like is it the 90s do you want to send a check and I went it's fine
I'll nudge you on Tuesday
because everybody
that's like fucking
seems to owe his money
whether it be like
people from the comedy festival
people from back home
they'll give us a date
and then I'll remind them
three days later
and I'll be constantly chasing
I don't know what you're like
so Gav then
wired the money immediately
he was like
oh sorry dude
just wired it
because you
obviously you
Marlene is your agent right
so she would do a lot of follow follow-up payments and things like that
right she would do that whereas i do it myself you know because obviously i don't use an agent
so i'm like so i feel weird about it so is this weird right so say glee for example glee club
right so you do a gig and then three weeks later it's always in the account within three weeks or
a check goes one or the other I still get paid checks
because I don't have
a UK account
right
so
sometimes what will happen
is it will go like
three weeks
and three days
and then I'll mail them
and the check will arrive
that day
and I'll go
if I just waited
one more day
I'm going to look dignified
and you feel
like a weirdo
but you're being
paid for services
it looks like you're being paid for services.
It looks like you're going, because this is what makes me so upset about having to push for money.
It looks like you're going, hey, dude, I want my bottle of dollar.
Can I get paid?
But when really all you're doing is like, I worked that four weeks ago, cunt.
Like, you got paid on the door.
So that's what bothers us about it, is that you're made to look like a fucking scrounger for your own dollar.
Exactly.
What else has made you cranky?
Come on, spill your beans.
So then, this made us cranky.
I was like, I totally snapped,
and then I had to apologize.
That was rude.
Oh, you got cranky last night as well at the gig.
Oh, I'm getting to that.
Oh, that's what it is.
No, no.
I'm getting to that next after this one.
This is what made us cranky, right?
You're such a little cranky, Pat.
Let me get this off my chest so I can go back to being happy.
Hundreds and hundreds of years of happiness.
That's the thing about the money thing,
about having an agent who chases it for you
so you don't have to do a lot of the chasing.
You still have to do a bit of chasing to get it off your agent.
Because what your agent wants to do is just to keep her admin to a minimum, is wait until she's got a bunch of your gigs paid.
And then she'll pay you in a wanna and try and do it little and less often.
Yeah.
Right?
Or big amounts and less.
Right, you know what I'm saying.
So I'll just go, hey, I was just wondering, I haven't been paid for fucking six weeks for the these gigs that are done in leeds and brighton and she was like oh
yeah i'm just waiting for the money off altitude and then i'll send it through and i'm like oh why
don't you just wait for all of the work i ever do and then pay us when i die like why have you
just let it stack and stack and stack you give it the gab give it the gab you can write a check
you know i've run like a couple of gigs a punch trunk in set list
I know I'm not
running set list
but I'm the front of house
and the show manager
and every gig
that I run
I'm handing people cash
when they get paid
so I'm just saying
a little bit of
fucking balance
wouldn't go amiss
number two
that made me cranky
right
is wonderfully
so I was living
with Dan Willis
and Kerry Marks
and Dan Willis
his wife and
daughter
tip up right
wonderfully for him
right on his birthday
and it's just nice
to have a kid
running around the
house
it's been a
lovely couple of
days
but
the other day
I come in
and the kitchen's
immaculate right
but I keep it
tidy anyway
but like
Dan will come in
drunk
every night
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and
and and and and and and and and and With his 970 cans of Coke. Yeah, he does, doesn't he? I mean, I drink a lot of Pepsi Max or Diet Coke, but my Jesus.
It's like a fucking storeroom.
It's like there's been, I think, a lorry tipped.
Didn't I count it the other day?
There was 40 cans of Diet Coke and, like, eight bottles.
Eight two-litre bottles.
I was like, that's a lot.
Ridiculous.
It was the back of a lorry.
It wasn't even a party for AA.
Crash lorry.
That's why they keep fizzing up in his face.
AA party.
that's why they keep fizzing up in his face
so
I noticed that
his little station
that was a bit of a clip
it was immaculate now
right
and I was like
that's because
his wife's touch
she's done the thing
after right
so then I'm
I'm sat where
Nick Cody and Luke Hagee
at the Ashes gig
in the afternoon
and Erin come up
and she was just so like
smile me about i tidied
up after you i bet you didn't notice but i tidied up the kitchen after you and i bet you've just
made a mess again and left it and i was just like fucking excuse me i because i live with two other
people and i've been cooking and using top of my way and everything like that right i'll wash them
sometimes before i've even ate my food yeah i'll wash the shit i wash as i go yeah i'm all about
washing as you go yeah so she come along like that and, yeah. I'm all about washing as you go, yeah.
So she'd come along like that, and I'm just like, I've been washing as I go, so I stopped
her about that.
And then what had really annoyed us about our tidy up, right, is that when I empty the
dishwasher or whatever, right, I'll always put my Tupperwares, which I use every day.
I fucking, you know what I'm like when we Tupperware, I'm having seven meals a day and
I'm all in Tupperware.
Because of the plastic, they never dry in the dishwasher, right?
So I put them in the fucking
drainer on the top
and they always go
from my bag
to the dishwasher
to the drainer
to being used
and I've got this cycle going, right?
I mean, you don't sound psycho
at all right now.
No.
I think this is why
you get cranky, right?
It's because I've never been
goal-driven before.
You've never been in a routine like this.
Nobody has ever been an obstacle
because you can't be an obstacle when you're just floating around like a butterfly. Yeah. Like a never been in a routine like this. Nobody has ever been an obstacle. Yeah. Because you can't be an obstacle
when you're just floating around
like a butterfly.
Yeah.
Like a sexy butterfly.
Stinging like a bee.
Making that sweet honey.
I'm floating around like a butterfly.
So fucking,
so I'm in the house, right,
going, oh nice,
like finally someone's
tidied up Dan's crumbs, right?
But then, spent the next
fucking ages
just hunting a run
for me Tupperware
and eventually
found it in the
cupboard with a
cleaning product
oh my god
it was just in the
cupboard
makes no sense
so there's like a
drawer full of
Tupperware
which is a
Tupperware drawer
in my opinion
Tupperware drawer
that's where it
goes
so when she had
that
so she'd come along and done the whole I've tidied up It's a Tupperware drawer, in my opinion. It's a Tupperware drawer. That's where it goes. So when she had that,
so she'd come along and done the whole,
like, I've tidied up after you,
I bet you've made a mess.
I was just like, fuck that,
I've tidied up after meself.
Like, you've just come and rescued my life.
Yeah, yeah, I literally wasn't in it.
It wasn't hoarders.
So then she fucking walks away, and then I turned into a fucking cantankerous little...
Cranky guy.
Crantankerous. crank-tankerous
um
kytankerous
turned to Cody and Luke
and I was just like
aye
she didn't just tidy up
she just fucking went
and hit all me gear
hit me top of my head
but we just
let the fucking
judge out
right
but oh man
she heard us
and she come back
she heard you
like when Nick and Luke
had gone
she was like
I'm sorry if you couldn't
find your top of my head
oh no
now I'm the twat
oh you're such an idiot
now she's
she's recording a podcast
right now going
I was just trying to help out
I didn't even mean
to put stuff away
it just was a little bit
of a mess
I think that happens
like Mick Nevin
moved into a flat in Perth
for a couple of days
and he just
because he wanted to
make sure he was like
not in anyone's way
like tidies up
but then like
you just end up
moving your shit around
and you're like well and if you say it to him you look like a psycho yeah could you not
tidy your shit up please it was um it was uh um carrie was just like um you know me shaving towel
how come it ended up on the side of the sink and now it's just in the bathtub and he was like i
don't know dolly must have been playing it and he was like well dolly couldn't have got it because
it was hung over the the top of the the thing and he was like, Dolly must have been playing it. And he was like, well, Dolly couldn't have got it because it was hung over the top of the thing.
And he was like, oh, Aaron must have used it to wash Dolly.
And he was like, so you're trying to say that you used my face towel
to wipe your daughter's bum?
Oh, God.
And then Dan was just like, I put my hand up funny.
Oh, God.
He just went, fuck it, I'm not going to defend it.
Thank God he threw it in the back then. I said to Kerry, you should have went, hey, you know what? was just like a bum on a fanny oh god he just went fucking i'm not gonna defend it yeah thank
god he threw it in the back then let's just bring it back up i said to carrie you should have went
hey you know where my arse towel's gone and he would have gone i use it to shave my daughter's
face hey um you've got no idea where i've put my spaff rag day yeah you don't know where my
jizz bucket is yeah i've just been kind of like this because like,
so the first one
is just chasing money.
The second one
is just a slight
disruption to your routine.
That's not that
person's fault.
They've come along.
They're more than
welcome in that home
and they are
trying their best to...
They don't even know
they're doing it.
They don't like,
not even don't know
they're doing it
but they are doing
a favour to me
by keeping the place tidy.
Yeah,
they're actually trying to,
they're trying to do
something nice but accidentally ruining your fucking life. Yeah, they're actually trying to, they're trying to do something nice.
Yeah.
But accidentally
ruining your fucking life.
Yeah,
there's me just like
stamping my foot
and talking loudly
near her,
so she has to apologise.
She's been so lovely.
So I've been a cunt.
So go on,
what happened last night?
So we're in the green room
and I was just,
I just finished set list.
Oh,
I didn't even know this one.
This is a new one then.
Oh,
so there's another one.
I'm talking about the one with Rory.
Okay, okay.
We'll add that one as well then.
So there's going to be four.
What day?
Enjoy this.
So fucking after Set List.
You should watch.
I've got a friend who's doing a show.
You should watch it.
It's called How To Be Happy.
It's available at tyhumphries.com forward slash shop.
Download for $5.
You should watch that to make yourself cheer up.
I'm probably going to be pissed off at how happy I am.
So this happened, right?
We're in a green room with Bev Killick, Kerry Marks, Steve Hughes is there.
It's a fucking nice green room.
And there's this dude who seems like a nice guy.
Who is it?
He's got big hair.
He plays the piano.
Wears a big gold suit.
I mean, if you don't get him off that description you never will so uh we're just like chatting away and i wasn't really engaging
too much in the conversation because i was sending some emails i was just using the time because i
was waiting for carrie to share a taxi back yeah i was up past my bedtime yeah i was sober i'm just
doing some things and then just out the blue this this dude went up he was like I can understand
what most people say
but you talk quite fast
and you've got a strong accent
I can't understand
what you're saying
and I was like
and then he just went
one dude
I'm not fucking talking to you
I'm not talking at all
I'm actually sending emails
yeah I'm sending emails
I'm not talking to you
but two
this is mostly you
you know that
and this is the one I raised with him I didn't say one I wasn't talking to you. But two, this is mostly you, you know that, and this is the one
I raised with him, right?
I didn't say one,
I wasn't talking to you
because that would be rude.
This is probably also rude,
but valid.
Well, it's okay now
because Kai Ranky,
man, is in town.
I went,
it's mostly you
because I'm not going to...
Who is this?
I actually don't know
who this is.
He's a comedian.
He must do some stuff
at the Rhino Room.
He was on at the late show
the other night.
Fucking top dude, nice dude.
But he just hit a nerve with us when he was like,
I can't understand what you say.
Because my thing is, it's mostly you.
I've got an accent that I'm not going to lose just for your benefit.
I'm not going to start speaking the Queen's English the whole time
just so you can fucking tune your ears in.
Actually, I understood you much better there.
Oh, good, good.
I wish he was here.
tune your ears in.
Actually,
I understood you much better there.
Oh,
good,
good.
I wish he was here.
So,
I was like,
there's just like
a little bit of tuning in
that you've got to do
as with any accent.
Yeah.
As with any accent,
you've just got to go,
like if I hear a Kiwi
in New Zealand
say dick
when they're talking
about their garden,
I know they mean,
when they say dick
instead of deck.
Yeah.
I know that
when you hear dick,
they don't mean cock.
No.
They mean deck, right?
And just like when Eddie Alvarez was going on it,
Conor McGregor going, I don't know what he's saying.
He's saying turd instead of third.
You're like, then you do know.
You're like, oh, so you do know.
But two, in the context, why would he mean turd?
He clearly means third.
And you know he means third. You're just like putting up this resistance. Like you said turd, he must mean turd? He clearly means third. And you know he means third.
You're just putting up this resistance.
You said turd, he must mean turd.
I don't know what he's saying.
Just go, oh, right, they drop the H,
so that's an easy patch for my brain to make. Yeah, it's not like you said lump when you meant to say milk.
Yeah, exactly.
And even in the context of I'm going to put some lump on my cereal,
you're probably going, oh, lump ones mean milk where he's from. So I was like, you've got to meet me halfway, dude. I'm'm going to put some lump on my cereal probably going oh lump wants me milk where he's from
so I was like
you've got to meet me
halfway dude
I'm not going to lose
my accent completely
but you've got to tune in
and then I was like
it's proven that my accent
works in this country
because laughter
is undeniable
if you're saying stuff
and people are laughing
they heard it
yeah
it's not all rhythm
it's not like that
it's not like they're
filling in a form
saying yes I know
whether they heard it they it's a knee jerk reaction
to what you say
so
also if you're
a very successful
comedian
you've met loads of people
you've heard loads of accents
your accent is not
the strongest one
I've ever heard
you know what I mean
there's definitely
Scottish accents
that are stronger than yours
over at this festival
right now
it's not so much the accent
it's like you say the use of words like saying
I dinna ken in Scottish you have to know that means I don't know
or I divin na in Geordie but if I say I don't know it's still whether I've got an
accent or not it's still the words. So I just mentioned to him that
if you can't hear if you can't understand my accent it's down to him
it ain't me right
and then he just went
oh sorry
I've only got the use
of one ear
and I went
well use that one
yeah well then
then you shouldn't
understand anybody's accent
so that made us
unnecessarily cranky
and then
well yeah
I said there's two things
with Rory Law that got us like but there's two things with Rory Law.
There's two?
Yeah, we'll do this as 4.1 and 4.2.
So are you talking about the one where...
The cakewood, yeah.
So I'm doing a gig last night on there.
So PJ O'Brien's is like an enclosed balcony.
So you're like outdoors but indoors.
It's like you're on a balcony but it's got a roof.
It's got high barriers.
It's like a smoking area.
So it's like a smoking area. You feel like you're a roof it's got high barriers it's like a smoking area it's like a smoking area
you feel like you're outdoors
but it's got the enclosed space
feeling of indoors
it's like a room
with lots of open windows
I think they've got it
I'm starting to not understand
your accent again
I'm doing the gig there
and I'm like
fucking getting on
to my last routine
before I hit my time
and it's like
quite a tight schedule
you can't overrun it
yeah it's 4x2
and 10x12s yeah you can't really be like. Yeah, it's four acts doing 10, 12s.
Yeah, you can't really be like they're doing more than you a lot of the time.
So fucking, I'm on a balcony that's mostly full.
Apart from to the far left, there's a bit of space where it would be a few extra seats
in or some standing area if it was completely rammed.
Yeah.
Right.
And I see like a commotion going on there as I'm doing my last routine to the point
that everybody like stretches their neck to see what the commotion going on there as i'm doing my last routine to the point that everybody like stretches their neck to see what the commotion is and from stage and from the audience's point
of view it looked like a fight was breaking out it seemed like a fight but when i looked up i saw
your check shirt and i was like oh it's just the comics so my instant thing would be to commentate
on what was happening find out what's going on settle it and then get back to me jokes because
i didn't want to look like the dick going hey other comedians who's the other comedians making a noise yeah comedians you shouldn't be comedian
when i'm when i'm comedianing you just get all fucking pissy with you for making a noise i just
fucking raise my eyebrows and kind of like go on they're just being dicks and then carry on with
my um my routine but the momentum was all gone and i kind of just fizzled out we said and you're
yeah and you're already in the final section. I was in the final section
which relied on a bit of a callback
to something I said earlier
which got me to this head.
So from what was,
in all purposes,
a great gig,
just ended up on just a bit of a meh
at the end.
Whereas I would normally
have just put another routine on the end.
I couldn't do that
because I was getting to the clock
so I just had to go,
oh well,
that's my big closer.
And then when I come off it was Rory. Yeah, because he said it to me you were like what the fuck was that
fuck that dude so what happened was he came in he was hammered uh like eight in the day eight
thirty i suppose nine whatever uh he came in and so we'd gotten you'd gotten a birthday cake
for dan willis yeah um and uh alice one of the bar girls there had, she'd had a slice on her plate
and she went inside
so I picked up her plate
as if like,
oh, I'm going to eat this.
You know?
But then when Rory walked in,
he thought it was my cake
so he just grabbed it in his fist
and mushed it in his hand
and then tried to put his hand
all over my shirt
and I was like,
I have two more gigs to do.
You absolute asshole.
What are you...
So I was trying to hold...
I was like stopping him.
You know what else is fucked about this?
This wasn't no supermarket cake.
No.
This is one that got specially made, like fucking gourmet.
Yeah, yeah.
This was like a 60.
Patisserie?
Cakery?
Brasserie?
Boulangerie.
Boulangerie.
Like a $60 cake or something like that.
And he properly then, like it was about 30 seconds I had to like hold him as he was trying
to ram it onto my face and all of my shirt.
Yeah. And I was like, this is not how I want my last night to go
so I come off and you said that and he was about to get
called on stage he was on then yeah he was on
just before he got called on stage
he was like what date am I doing
set list and this I'm going to say is
no exaggeration the 10th day
in a row that he's asked me when
he's doing set list and for the 10th day in a
row I told him
I'm not fucking
booking it
I book it in Edinburgh
but I don't book it here
I've been show managing it
I've been hosting it
I haven't got the
booking sheet
and I'm just
I fucking grabbed him
by both sides of the head
and I went
honestly mate
don't make us
fucking tell you again
I'm not booking set list
I just fucking
grabbed him by the face
hopefully that'll
get it through
nice enough kid as well
yeah he's sound enough
he's just a little bit
he was hammered last night as well
he was hammered
he was just being drunk
and I'm just the sober guy
yeah yeah
you're completely sober
and he was out of his bracket
yeah he's just having a great festival
he's having a great festival
he's having a fucking good time
doesn't care
he was DJing
to producers last night
yeah
you'll never play Celtic
I'll tell you that you'll never play a cellist i'll tell you that
you'll never get any more cake yeah he will he'll be good at it but you know the worst thing about
it was well not the worst thing but like when he grabbed the cake i put the plate down and then he
didn't like he went into i went in to like wash my hands or whatever and like when i came out
alice was about to eat the cake and i was like no no i'll get you another slice let's be on the
floor she was like oh we hadn't even been on the floor he just smushed it and put it back on the plate
so it would have been his hands
but it was like
it was a chocolate cake
I mean God knows where they've been
itching his bum
bad dirt
you can hardly tell
what's cake and what's poo
after Rory's hands been on it
oh my god
absolutely
I'm glad I got that off my chest
Dr Phil
you feeling better now
yeah I feel great.
Dr. Phil, how did that make you feel?
I feel absolutely liberated now.
Finally.
Have you got anything you want to get off your chest?
No, I'm very happy.
You're doing what?
Because you're leaving Australia to go to Glasgow?
Because I'm leaving Australia to go to Glasgow.
Get a nice bit of wind chill.
Get some use out of my winter coat.
So are you just going to be in Glasgow
for the full two weeks?
No.
So I fly home today.
I land tomorrow morning,
Tuesday morning.
And I'm in Glasgow Wednesday and Friday.
I'm in Edinburgh Thursday,
Friday, Saturday.
Ah, sweet.
So you're going to hang around with Gareth Waugh?
Yeah.
I'll be with,
well, Waugh's doing my show with me Wednesday.
Gareth Waugh and Mark Nelson
are both doing my show.
They're opening for me.
And then drawing the show.
Have you seen,
because I went,
just to cover that as well,
drawing a show means that when he's doing a show
and a lot of it's improvised.
All of it.
He always has an artist
who isn't especially an artist.
Yeah.
It's just someone that could maybe...
It's more important that they're a comic.
And they draw
a kind of road map of your gig
using illustrations.
They do minutes through illustrations.
It's way more fun.
Do you put that online so that people can go on your website?
Yeah, I'm going to start to. And then in Edinburgh this year
I'm going to have a separate Twitter account for us.
And I'll have a hashtag like
road comedian.
separate Twitter account for us
and I have
hashtag like
road comedian
so
we got this
one brought to
mind
Gareth Wall
we mentioned
Gareth Wall
someone created
an Instagram
of Muggins and
Cream
and it's just
pictures of
me and Daniel
and it's like
a fanboy
fangirl
type account
with heart
emojis in the...
I'm going to look at this right now as you tell me.
Go on.
Yeah, and I just instantly thought it was Gareth Waugh.
You think so?
I think it's just a listener,
so thank you whoever's done it.
A bit creepy, a bit weird, a bit muggly.
What's it got, muggins and cream?
It made me laugh.
What made me laugh the most about it
is that it comes up as...
They've done that tile thing, you know,
where you post nine pictures in a row and it makes one big picture on your feed yeah have you seen
that you're gonna see in a minute it's called like nine yeah it's nine nine of the best or
something like that nine the best it's an app that they've taken a photo of me from me 2013
poster where i'm butt naked apart from a disco ball i'm just wearing a disco ball on me cock
and they posted nine pictures of that, so it makes the full picture.
Oh, yeah.
But it comes up on your feed.
It's just like various body parts of me.
Like, oh, there's an arm, there's a neck.
It's kind of together.
Ah, it's distorted on your phone.
Yeah, yeah.
Weird.
You need to update it out, maybe.
So anyway, check, what's the Instagram handle called?
Muggins and Cream.
Muggins and Cream.
But the photos they've put on aren't like photos
that we've posted on Facebook.
They're like obscure photos
sometimes
that have been put on Twitter.
So I guess they went
through the media on Twitter.
It's me and Natalie.
What have you and Natalie
from five hours ago?
One of you wearing a suit.
Were you in court that day?
Hey-o!
That's so weird.
Nick Cody gets a mention?
Oh, there's Cody.
Yes,
so go check it out.
But they went through
and like
there was one picture
where it's just me
on a train
that I couldn't even
remember being taken
and it's just the one
that I
like you know
when
because I wouldn't
post a picture
of myself on a train
just as a
as a like
hey this is what
I'm doing now
but it was in a
conversation
like I'm on my way
what
so like you know
when you're tweeting
someone
yeah but I mean
so you would go
like at Andrew Stanley
I'm on my way to Brighton
he has to serve me
on the train
just fucking looking happy
with a
seeing me out
the window
so they've took it off there
so these are just
really random pictures
so they're just pulling
random pictures
that you forget
how you've done
on the internet
and so like
who do you
actually do you think
we should try and find out
who it is
I think I know who it is
there's a
there's a there's a
Twitter
Twitterer
called
Hannah Loft
so shout out to Hannah Loft
because she
she tweets quite a bit
just about the podcast
and she's enjoying it
and then
it seems to be
written in the same vibe
as the shit
on her Twitter bio
okay
she's just
got a little
Hannah Loftus
or Hannah Loft
I don't know
Loftus is it
I don't know anyway thatus is it I don't know
anyway
that's cool
I think it's good
and on top of that
uh oh
this is the next level shit
so we've got the
Instagram handle made
but fucking super shout out
to the biggest muggle
of them all
the fucking
queen bee of muggles
Rich Massara
yeah
has made a website
an actual website
called Mugglepedia oh I saw that so people can actually muggle actual website called Mugglepedia.
Oh, I saw that.
So people can actually muggle it up on Mugglepedia.
It's so good.
And it's got a Twitter handle, which is Mugglepedia.
Yeah.
And he's put in every single muggle thing that's been cited, confirmed, denied, who
confirmed it, who denied it.
If there's been a stipulation added, he's got the stipulation in brackets.
Amazing.
With the person who added it in brackets.
And do you know he had your, when you put the person who added it in brackets. And you know,
when you put the Muggle Corner stuff in,
you had you as Stanley
and someone commented
on the post of it
on Facebook
saying,
oh, why is it down
as Stanley
and not Kissy Tulips?
And Richard Massaro
went back and edited
every foot of Kissy Tulips
because of Kissgate 2017.
Muggleopedia,
how do you spell it?
I'm going to look it up now.
M-U-G-L-I-P
drop the E from Muggle. M-U-G-L-I-P.
Drop the A from Muggle.
Yeah.
M-U-G-G-L-A.
Not without the A.
Muggleopedia.
Appedia.
Or Appedia.
Appedia.
Appedia. Muggle Corner.
Oh, it's at Muggle Corner.
At Muggle Corner.
Yeah, but the website.
Yeah.
Oh, no.
I haven't even seen the website yet.
It's amazing.
Speaking of Muggles, right, let's do some Muggles now.
Let's do some Muggles.
Because we're always
going too late
and overrun
or end up dropping some.
So before we go
into Muggle Corner,
and I mean,
people are confused now
if this is the first time
listening to me
talking about Mugglepedia.
Let's get everyone
up to speed.
It's on you.
You're the guest.
So Q for the Airplane,
actually,
I'm just looking here
on the website.
Q for the Airplane
was the first ever
Muggle Corner.
Was that the first ever one?
First ever one.
And it really is.
And that was the one
I said in the first episode
as well
ah so that was
yeah because when I said
there's a repeat here
yeah yeah
so queuing for the aeroplane
Sam Wilson
who was on the podcast
the band of Sam
who was on the podcast
a few episodes ago
he actually gave me
an insight of why
people do that
or why you would do that
go on
he goes on the flight
so he's got all his
sound technician equipment
yeah being a
fucking musician
yeah
and he says like
sometimes I've got like
five grand's worth of gear
in my bag
yeah okay
in my hand luggage
I'll agree with that
as a stipulation
and he's like
I want it nearby
but I don't look at that queue
and think
there's a bunch of people
with five grand's worth
exactly yeah
it's a seven euro
Ryanair flight
stop it
so he must get even more pissed off by the Muggles in the queue.
Yeah, yeah.
So that must annoy him even more.
By the fact that he needs to queue
and everybody else that doesn't need to queue is also queuing.
Yeah.
So Muggles.
Muggles.
In Harry Potter's world, Muggles are people that lack magic.
In our world, Muggles are people who lack magic.
You know, if you lack that spark of creativity,
of uniqueness, of individuality,
and you just join the herd,
and you just go along with what's cool,
and what's a fad, and what's in,
and you've got fucking quotes like,
dance like no one's watching is your mantra.
If you fucking wear T-shirts with slogans on
that you think are funny,
but they just make you look like a muggle,
then you're a muggle.
And every week we put three each in the muggle corner, we debate, then we confirm or deny whether that makes like a muggle then you're a muggle and every week we put three each
in the muggle corner
we debate
then we confirm
or deny
whether that makes you a muggle
and hey
if we
I think we've been very much
on form recently as well
yeah
and everything's been
a lot of confirmations
going straight in
a couple of stipulations
here and there
we're going to get everybody
and we're getting ourselves
everybody gets caught
being muggle eating
from time to time
here we go
do you want me to go first
yes okay here we go muggly from time to time here we go do you want me to go first okay here we go
muggles wear bike helmets even when they're not on their bike hey
are you just trying to put me in the corner for this one straight in the corner
look i like to i like to text while i walk all right straight in the corner i like that corner
i don't be you don't even have
to be careful in there
because if you hit your head
you've got your helmet on
I can't get right in the corner
I can get in the other corner
I'm kept out by an inch or two
but sometimes
when you're carrying
your things
it just rests so neatly
on your head
no
no
not at all
there's no excuse
but I do still
and sometimes
I'll go
oh I've got my bike helmet on
and I've got my headphones and anything because I like to put them on anything then clip the chin strap because it keeps them in right And sometimes I'll go, oh, I've got my bike helmet on and I've got my headphones and anything
because I like to put them on anything and then clip the chin strap because it keeps
them in.
And then I go to unlock my bike and I'm like, oh, I've left my bottle upstairs.
What am I going to take my helmet off?
Or am I just going to strut through the bar to all the people who are having a good night
out on a Saturday at like 12 midnight and just strut through the bar with my cycle helmet
on and up the stairs.
Like an absolute psycho. I don't give a fuck. Muggle. I'm not even strut through the bar. We take a little bit on and off the stairs. Like an absolute psycho.
I don't give a fuck.
Muggle.
I'm not even going upstairs to the bar.
I'm going up to get in the corner.
I don't even look.
I look, bro, my special.
I don't fucking well interview you.
Is it true you only have a bike helmet to keep your headphones in?
You know what the worst thing is as well?
I wear it all the time.
I've never used it yet.
What a waste of money. What? I've never used my bike the time I've never used it yet what a waste of money what
I've never used
my bike helmet
I've had it on
what a waste
such a waste yeah
like I want to come off
at least once on my trip

really prepped

your wristies for 50s
do you want to know
a little fact about me
go ahead
I used to wear wrist pads
for rollerblading

for mainline skates
there's 11 things wrong
with that sentence
luminous green wheels

There you go.
Straight in the corner.
Boom.
Shots fired.
All right.
I'll stand in the corner for that.
Go ahead.
I hope I'm not alone.
I hope there's other people out there that have fucking already got...
They're listening to the podcast on the community work, right?
How far are we into the podcast?
We are 33 minutes.
You've got a 30-minute cycle to work.

You've never been safer in the corner.
Alright, my nomination for Muggle Corner

just put a bonus one in yeah but anybody that quotes Keith Lemon anyone that fucking This is a separate Muggle Corner But we could just put a bonus one in
But anybody that quotes Keith Lemon
Anyone that fucking starts
Blusting fucking Craig David
What was the last one with Craig David?

Did he just shout Craig David?
Yeah, Craig David
That's what it was
If that tickles your fucking pickle
If that tickles your pickle pickle, if that tickles your pickle,
you've got a muggle core.
Yeah, you're listening to me.
You've got a muggle core.
If you think by reciting that thing
that made you laugh
is going to make other people laugh,
it just makes them squirm.
Tickly, tickly.
Straight in.
Straight in.
But yeah, if you do,
because I get it where,
I've even got to the point where if someone says
way I man
I'll sarcastically go
oh god I thought
I was home for a second
oh thanks for
thanks for bringing us
to Newcastle
for a brief moment
for a brief moment
thanks for making me
introduce me to
Ant & Dec straight away
the worst thing is
in Newcastle as well
I'm sure
Irish people don't say
tiddly dee potatoes
but in Newcastle
people don't actually
say way I man
we'll say way I it comes from. Well, say way-eye.
It comes from...
They'll say man
after a lot of things.
It comes from biker.
Biker Grove.
That's where people get it from.
Way-eye, man?
Yeah, yeah.
And I think maybe
because it got so used,
it got flushed out.
Yeah.
And people are conscious
not to say way-eye, man, now.
Yeah, yeah.
But I can't say
I've ever heard a Geordie
say way-eye, man.
We do say top of the morning
in Ireland.
Top of the morning.
No matter what time of day it is. It's actually a prayer before dinner aye man. We do say top of the morning in Ireland. Top of the morning. No matter what time of day it is.
It's actually a prayer before dinner.

Top of the morning.
Top of the morning to our Lord in heaven.
Good morning.

Which would be why not?
Well, no.
Well, no.
Well, no. Way no. where I'm on why no what is that why no why no which would be why not well no well no well no

but it would be
like in shock
where you're
getting like
did you hear
I got beaten
9-0 off
Sloss on FIFA
I'm like
why no
I did hear
about that
you had to
do a Facebook
post
it wasn't
if it was
beyond Facebook
I had to
send him
a moon pig
I sent him
a moon pig
right
so it was
a Facebook
apology I don't know if it was 9-0 or 8-0 whatever the apology rule is for sending a moon pig card sent him a moon pig right so it was a Facebook apology
I don't know if it was
9-0 or 8-0
whatever the apology rule is
for sending a moon pig card
it was that
if you don't know
what the apology rules are
it's like
what if you get beat 4-0
if you get beaten by 5 goals or more
yeah
you have to make a Facebook apology
there's one of them
like if Gary Neville
scores past you
you have to go to bed
yeah
what's Gary Neville
I don't know the exact one
that would have been a while ago
if it was
so there's loads of different rules where you have exact one that would have been a while ago if it was so there's loads
of different rules
where you have
but one of them
is a moon pick
apology card
so I lost
absolutely fucking
tanked as on
FIFA and I sent
him an apology
card but way
back I had a bit
of a health scare
I had the bloodiest
shit known to man
oh god
it was a blood
bath but it
turned out I
just need to cut
my fingernails
I was fine
I just sent a
moon pig apology card
with a picture
on my bloody poo
that's so horrific
it's really bad
but em
what's the
Scottish way
och aye the noo
och aye the noo
tossing the caber.
Like anything like that.
If you just have the compulsion to blurt that noise towards someone from that place.
Yep.
What would you say to someone from Liverpool?
Do we actually do that from Liverpool?
No, from Liverpool it would be...
Calm down, calm down.
I want to look like Gerard
he's got the look
I want six
McChicken nuggets
and a crunchy McFlurry
I smash the gig
Is that Adam Rowe?
This guy's comic
Adam Rowe
Good guy
So that's straight in the corner
straight in
straight in definitely
alright here we go
muggles
don't like folding the corners of pages on books
you know people are like
no don't fold it
I don't want to fold the corner
yeah
oh sorry
you want to save posterity
you know what
sorry do you own two libraries
what are you talking about?
Fold the fucking page.
I've got this really thing about, like,
I'll throw my books around, I'll bend the spine,
I'll fold the corners, and even ones that have had...
Well, that's because yours are audiobooks.
My phone's fucked.
Your Kindle's wrecked.
Do you want to listen to it?
Your Kindle's a bitch. I'm just fucking batting my Kindle's wrecked your Kindle's a bitch I've fucking batted
my Kindle all over
I've folded the
corner of my Kindle
I've broken the
spine of my Kindle
so even ones that
like mean a lot
it was that I want
to keep forever
by the mean a lot
it was I mean
someone's like
gift that wasn't
wrote in the spine
yeah yeah
not wrote in the spine
that would be weird
in the cover
in the inside cover
they're one of my favourite gifts by the way is if someone buys a book that Yeah, yeah. Not wrote in the spine, that would be weird. In the cover. In the inside cover.
They're one of my favourite gifts,
by the way,
is if someone buys a book that they've read
and think I like,
and they write something
in the thing.
Love that.
But that doesn't make us go,
I want to keep this pristine.
Yeah.
I think there's something
really charming about a book
that looks like it's been read.
Exactly.
Yeah, a bit battered,
notes on the side,
things like that.
Yeah.
It's a ridiculous thing. It's like, what are you going to do? You that looks like it's been read. Exactly. Yeah, a bit battered, notes on the side, things like that. Yeah. It's a ridiculous thing.
It's like,
what are you going to do?
You're making sure
it's in good condition
for when you resell it?
Yeah.
You want to get down
to the charity shop?
However,
Natalie's dad,
well,
this gets him in the muggle corner,
whether this acts as a stipulation,
but he's got a room in his house
that's pretty much a library,
right,
and he's got all these books
from the same kind of,
I wish I knew what they were called,
but you know when they're in the binders
and they go in the box?
Yeah.
So you'll have everything
from Sherlock Holmes,
Agatha Christie,
like fucking...
I know what you're talking about,
yeah, the old school books.
They're all in the same style.
They're Penguin Classics.
Is that what they are?
Yeah, I think so, yeah, yeah.
And they come in like a little box.
Yeah, so that's fair enough
because that's a collection.
So that's different.
He's got his collection in there.
He's like,
oh, feel free to read any of the books.
He lets us know that you're allowed to touch them. Yeah, yeah like feel free to read any of the books he lets us know
that you're allowed
to touch them
feel free to read
any of them
but I don't want
any of them
to leave the room
if that's alright
but that's fair enough
that's like
collecting old vinyl
and not playing the vinyl
you know what I mean
because you don't
want to scratch them
or whatever
that's fine
but this is like
I'm talking about
just normal books
like the latest
John Grisham
don't fold that down
don't fold that down
I don't want to ruin it
there's not many copies of Da Vinci Code kicking around.
I'll look after this one.
You know, it's funny.
I literally picked up the Da Vinci Code an hour ago to read on my fly home.
Because I've never read it.
That was weird.
Really?
Swear to God.
I like it.
I like his books, Dan Brown books.
They're all right.
And people get snobby about them.
I'm reading the Christopher Brookman at the minute.
I'm reading It's All Fun and Games Until Someone Loses an Eye. What was that one? I'm reading the Christopher Brutemeyer at the minute I'm reading it's all fun and
games until
someone loses
an eye
I'm trying to
date it though
when you're
reading a book
and you don't
know when it
was published
I was trying to
date it
I was like
when is this
set
I mentioned
Henrik Larsson
in Celtic
but I couldn't
remember if
they mentioned
past tense
but when was
Larsson playing
at Celtic
Larsson was like mid 90s yeah I think it might be a 90s book but I didn't realise playing at Celtic Larson was like
mid 90s
yeah I think
it might be a
90s book
but I didn't
realise
I'll check it
out
what was that
one
there's been
mobile phones
since 94
95
I think
I hate that
when you don't
know the age
of a book
and you're
trying to
use the
words in it
the background
of it
yeah
what was the
book we
both of us
read
you recommended
it to me
Ready Player One oh it's so good fantastic book we remember the book both of us read you recommended it to me actually Ready Player One
oh it's so good
fantastic book
really really good
Ernest Cline
yeah yeah
amazing book
really really good
it's set in the future
but it's about the 80s
yeah yeah exactly
it's all computer games
really cool
really good book
take this recommendation
down if you listen
to the podcast
you like reading books
Ernest Cline
Ready Player One
Ready Player One
and everybody I've
recommended it to do
right is love that book
whether it be like Sloss's mom loves it and then racist well no i'm just saying like
generation wise no but then uh like younger people like uh have loved it uh joward christmas got on
it with he fucking that's great really really good book um so anyway pages folding in the corner
get in there i think so i think if you don't fold the corner of your pages,
then you don't go in the corner.
Some people are quite obsessive about stuff.
I think I'm going to make some exceptions with comic books, I feel like.
Yeah, look, if there's stuff like graphic novels,
things like that, that's fine.
Yeah, if it's not going in your collection.
Yeah.
But yeah, I've got a bunch of books that are quite bad
because you travel around, they're in and out your bag,
and you look at them, they're all over the shop.
And I think they look much better than they do.
Way better.
That's the way they should be.
They're there to be read.
Yeah.
There you go.
Yeah.
Get in the corner.
You corner, non-corner, folding corner cunts.
I've got here.
Football fans that get aggressive.
If the players get insulted
by a rival fan
or whatever
like they get
like they get
affronted by
like if someone
goes
you're Liverpool
right
yeah
if I just go
oh Stig and Bjorn
be shit
what
that's such a niche
the finest left back
to ever play
what are you talking about
yeah but if you got like
is he fuck
yeah yeah the minute you go oh I but if you got like is he fuck yeah
the minute you
go oh I have
to defend him
like he's called
my child fat
yeah yeah I
know what you
mean because
some people get
like so
now you're
talking about
if they insult
him for no
like not
insulting his
football but
insulting just
is an insult
whether it's
about his
football whether
it's about
anything but
they feel like
they've got to
defend him like
it's family
yeah yeah
and I'm not
about like even slagging off your team
if you get that
but if you go
well that's your prerogative
you can dislike my team
if you want
I couldn't get angry about that
I see that people do
but when people
if people get
like they have to defend
the honour
of one of their heroes
yeah yeah
I remember
I was out watching
a Liverpool Arsenal game
god this is years ago
this is like
probably
I want to say 2002 maybe, so 15 years ago.
We were in a pub, me and my mate Derek.
It was like an early morning game.
And it was when Liverpool and Arsenal were kind of,
they had loads of those cup finals and everything over a certain period of time.
So there was like six games between them every season.
And somebody went down.
I think an Arsenal player, Henri I think it might have been, went down I think I think an
Arsenal player my
Henri I think it might
have been went down in
the box and he very
clearly dived right and
won a peno right or
won a peno free or
something like that and
there was like me and
Derek and we were in
this bar it wasn't like
it was a bit of a rough
bar and so we're all it
was all messing like
you're screaming about
you're screaming at
Arsenal fans they're
screaming and then
when they showed the
replay Henri had very clearly dived.
I was like,
you see,
fucking diving bastards.
You're cheating Arsenal,
fucking...
Some guy goes,
I'm not a fucking cheat.
And I was like,
I didn't,
I'm not,
we're just joking.
And Derek was like,
we have to go.
We literally have to leave the pub.
He started going,
I'm not a cheating fucker.
And I was like,
oh no you're not.
This is not what you're talking about.
The level of ego
to make that about you
personally as an individual
it was amazing
I think it was
it was Stefan Honcho
had tackled Henri
and Henri had gone down
you know what though
I feel like I'm missing out
on a level of enjoyment
with football
by not getting that
emotionally invested in it
people seem to enjoy it
a lot more
when they're not invested
like this is one of the
fucking finest
bits of fan action
I've ever seen
watching the
Newcastle Sunderland
Derby
last season
in the
relegation battle
for us
it was 1-1
that game wasn't it
can you remember
Mitrovic
got knocked out
and he was
unconscious in the box
and Rafa
subbed him off
while he was
unconscious
but when he came round
he didn't realise
he'd been subbed off
he was trying to get back on the pitch he was a little bit dazed and while he was unconscious. But when he came around, he didn't realise he'd been subbed off. Oh, really?
He's trying to get back on the pitch.
He's a little bit dazed and confused.
Of course, yeah.
He's got a concussion and everything.
He's trying to get back on the pitch.
And there's just a bit of commotion in the TVs and that.
And a Newcastle fan stood up and just went,
Think about your health!
I was so tempted to think.
He'd stand up and go,
Are you even insured?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Sit down. Sit down before you fall down. Who're going to stand up and go are you even insured yeah yeah yeah sit down
sit down before you fall down
who's going to do the school run
are you not going to be able
to drive vehicles
after a concussion
yeah yeah yeah
take the day off work
take two days
get yourself back
think about your health
think about your health
but like how emotionally invested
like you know
if you
that man
who shouted
think about your health
to Mitrovic right
if you just whisper to him
oh Mitrovic is a prick.
Doesn't pay his taxes.
Doesn't pay that, yeah.
This guy gone,
what do you say about him?
What?
What about his fucking taxes
and his health?
Don't speak about him like that
when he's nearly dead.
Don't speak about him
when he's in this ill health.
I hope he's got a good phone plan.
Don't want him to get ripped off
on his minutes.
Josh Pugh was telling me
that he,
Josh Pugh used to play rugby.
Josh Pugh's an English
comedian of the year
who's over here at the moment
he was playing a rugby game
one day
and he got tackled
so hard by a guy
that in the dressing room
afterwards he was like
so what are these lads
like today
who we're up against
like he thought it was
pre-4 of the game
and he was sitting there
covered in mud
like head to toe
he played the whole game
just concussion
his life had just reset him
back to earlier
yeah he just couldn't
remember anything
and he just slipped back
and he was sitting there and he was like lads what do you think these guys are going to be like he just couldn't remember anything and he just slipped back and he was sitting there
and he was like
lads what do you think
these guys are going to be like today
do you think they're a good outfit
or whatever
and the lads were all looking
and I'm like
we need a doctor in here I think
it's so confusing man
I've been
I don't know if I was fully out
I don't
I definitely like
had a bit of a blackout
but I
I kind of came around
stood up
but I had a car crash
and I hit the
driver's side window
with my face, with my head
and just put the window out on my head
Did you have your helmet on did you?
Luckily
Luckily for me
my headphones didn't even come out
The music didn't even
stop playing, I was listening to my old school
vinyl with the corner folded out
Didn't even stop driving
Didn't even hit
anything
just did it
because I wanted
to
wanted a bit of
fresh air
so fucking
hell
like I
I ended up
getting like
hit on the side
of the car
put my head through the window
and then I came around
and this is my fucking vague
floaty memory of coming around
I had a towel pressed to my head
and it turned out one of the neighbours had come out
so I was bleeding, I was hanging off a bit
I got my legs a couple of stitches back on
and I had this tape towel
just pressed against my head to stem the bleeding
waiting for the paramedics
and then I just turned
to the woman
who had given me the towel
and I went
has it been Christmas yet?
It was the 27th of December.
Oh my God.
And I asked the wife
who sorted me out
if it had been Christmas yet.
Jesus.
It's fucking confusing.
Jeez.
So, so,
sweet one I get.
Get a heavy present twice.
Like when you got your birthday
on Stephen's day
or Boxing Day
so yeah
the original one
back in the corner
yeah definitely
people who get
too affronted
is that the word
by
yeah
just make the
problem your own
if someone's
slagging off
yeah
your team
but more to the
point your player
your player
yeah individual
players
teams I'm like
you want to
defend your team
people have got like a logo the badge yeah they You want to defend your team. Yeah. People have got like a logo,
the badge.
Yeah.
And they'll want to defend that team.
But when you start to defend individual players,
like it starts...
Over nothing as well.
Yeah.
It starts getting a little bit fucking intrusive.
Calm down.
He's not sitting around your place on Sunday having dinner.
Why don't you make him an Instagram page?
All right. Here's my last one. This one is like... I don't know if this is one, but we'll see. to Grand Page. Alright,
here's my last one.
This one is like,
I don't know if this is one but we'll see.
Muggles drink water
when they're drinking
so they don't get too drunk.
I'm not looking at you
on this one.
I don't know if you do that.
No, I know you know
because I don't
but only because
I keep forgetting.
It's not about
not getting too drunk
but have you ever
had one of those nights
where you're down
a ton of water
before you go to bed
and your hangover
is like fucking mild
in the morning
yeah but before bed
fine
before bed
that's fine
I'm talking about
people who like
they'll be in rounds
and then like
every third drink
they'll go
oh give me a pint of water
as well
what are you doing
they'll replace the drink
they'll not do a little
no no they'll still have the drink
but they'll have a water as well
for you
and they'll be like
I don't want to get too drunk
and you're like
no but then don't drink
don't drink then
ducking their own round
yeah
the round comes to them
they get a water for themselves
7 euro off
yeah
I'm talking about
people who drink water
along with their drinks
so they don't get too drunk
I'm all about
yeah that's fine
drinking water before you go to bed
fine
that is fine
electrolytes and shit
because I never do it
but I always
like the one or two times
that I have done it
it's great yeah
where someone's hooked us up
yeah
like when I lived with Jimmy McGee
he would always fucking come in
no matter what stage of drunk
and he'd make some electrolytes.
I'm all about the electrolytes, yeah.
The more the electrolyte
you can drink the better.
And then you wake up
like even still
like you wake up in the afternoon
but you're just like
I just feel still a little bit tipsy.
Yeah, yeah.
It's not even a full-blown hangover.
Exactly.
I think if you're doing it
to maintain your like
sobriety
it's like why are you out?
In fact, more importantly why am I in fact more importantly
why am I hanging out with you
fuck
fuck
it's hard
it's hard to argue that
from the position
of a total square right now
it's such a fucking square right now
you may as well
pay rent
you're going to be
in the corner so much
you and Cody yesterday
were fucking discussing that
I'm clearly only doing this
for the beach in Paquette
yeah
100%
in Melbourne
you can't wait to see
it come off the rails
you're going to be such a mess
hit the skids
you think I'm going to do
the drinking of three festivals
yeah but also
you're going to have a water
every fourth drink
keep yourself sober
I'm going to have a sip of water
now between muggle corners
keep yourself
keep yourself not muggly
go on
what's your last one?
Right, this might be a little bit harsh.
Okay.
Because it's just people being sweet.
I already like it.
It's just people being sweet and people being full of love
and people coming from all the right place,
but a place of pure, unfiltered muggle.
Wanky family art.
Like a picture
of the dad's foot
next to the child's foot
in black and white
like scrabble pieces
making out the names
of every member
of your family
100%
no this is straight
I don't even have to
I don't even have to
debate this one
this is up there
with live laugh love
yeah but like
it's great
you love your family
and you're obsessed
over your family
and it's fucking adorable
but it's so muggly
yeah
and it's everywhere like you know like so muggly yeah and it's and it's everywhere
like you know
like a
you know like a
a framed picture
of your daughter's footprint
yeah
muggly
I mean that's again
I think that's okay
in your house
but not on your Facebook page
yeah
if you're outwardly projected
but even in the house
it's still
it's still muggly
and you know what
one day
I'll probably fucking end up
having some muggly family wanky art in my house 100% if I, it's still muggly. And you know what? One day, I'll probably fucking end up having some muggly
family wanky art in my house.
100%.
If I had a family,
I'd be so fucking polluted
with oxytocins
that I'd just like,
oh,
my family are the world.
This is my world in one photo.
They'll have made you happy again
because you're going to be
so fucking miserable by then.
Fuck that noise.
Just be like,
I'm fucking,
my son's movie took away.
I've called my son Mitrovich.
Put your helmet back on.
Come for a walk with your dad.
It's my child's first helmet.
This is when I'm 70 and my kid's 30.
I can agree with that
but with stipulations
I think if you're
social media posting it
or if you're
showing people it
on your phone
then that's bullshit
in your own home
in your own home
it's fine
but like
because what I find
muggle about it
even when it's
in your own home
you're just like
doing someone else's
idea of art
yeah
but you're applying
it to your
I think actually
I think the stipulation
is
yeah I think the stipulation is yeah
I think the stipulation
will probably be
that parenthood
makes you do it
do you know what I mean
yeah
neither of us can really
comment on it
because we don't have kids
although we know about
lads
lads with dicks
penis problems hashtag penis problems
hashtag penis problems
hashtag feeling blessed
hashtag sorry not sorry
that's a shout out to Gary Little
so
on the topic of apparently of parenting ugly things right so um erin started
dan's wife started showing us a video of his daughter playing and it was there it was just
from earlier that day right he's like oh look at her she's dancing with music on and everything
right and she showed us that she's shown us the. And I look up from the video and there's Dolly
in front of us.
Dancing.
With the exact same outfit on
as she has in the video.
And I look back and I'm like,
you might as well just be
videoing your daughter
and making us look at the phone.
Yeah.
The exact same thing
that you're showing us on the phone
is happening three feet away.
Yeah, exactly.
I'm like, why?
Like, what?
Do you not see this
the way I see it?
Maybe it wasn't.
Maybe you were actually filming it
and you just don't know
maybe you were in a car crash
and you forgot
maybe
yeah so I'm going to say
that's in the corner
with stipulations
with certain stipulations
with wanky family art
yeah
I agree with that
what are the types
of wanky family art
because I guess
don't you
you were saying last week
your parents have it right
oh yeah they've got Love, Love, Love with the with the three of you right yeah Because I guess, you were saying last week, your parents have it, right?
Oh yeah, they've got Love, Laugh, Love. Love, Laugh, Love, yeah, with the three of you, right?
Yeah.
Do you want to know something funny?
You have one.
No, this is quite funny, but I don't know how much it would annoy the person if it got back to them.
You've got to play it.
Definitely, darling.
So right, not the live laugh
love photo frame
yeah
but as soon as you come in
there's a photo frame
on the right
with six photos in
and it's like
just different family members
but like
me and Natalie
will be in one
yeah
Justine and Gavin
will be in one
Justine and Gavin
and because
my sister's
boyfriend's called Gavin
as well as my brother
being called Gavin
no no
Gavin your brother
is going out with Justin
yep
so
and then a picture
of Logan
and a picture of my mum and dad
but then there's a picture
of Gavin and his girlfriend
but Gavin doesn't have a girlfriend
it's Gavin's ex-girlfriend
that's in the photo
right
Gavin's ex-girlfriend
is
they broke up like
a year and a half ago right
yeah
two year ago maybe
two and a half year ago maybe
but they just haven't
changed the frame
and no one seems
to have noticed it
no one moves on
but what I laugh
now is because
Gav's ex-girlfriend
is now going
out with
UFC
flyweight
Paddy Houlihan
who's in the
same fucking
he was in the
UFC
he's a coach
now
he's got his
own gym
he coaches
Orla
who I think
you've met
the girl who
does the door
for me
he coaches MMA with her.
He was in Kavanaugh's stable.
He's fucking Conor McGregor's, one of Conor McGregor's entourage.
Yep.
She's going out with fucking one of the hardest men in the known universe.
Yep.
And I just walk into my family home where I grew up, my dad's house, and I look and go,
oh, there's Paddy Houlihan's bed.
Well, it'd be weirder as if they take Gav out of it and just have her. For Paddy in. For Paddy Houlihan's bed. Well, it'd be weirder as if they take Gav out of it
and just have her.
Put Paddy in.
Put Paddy in.
Paddy the hooligan Houlihan.
Paddy the hooligan Houlihan
in Blyde's family homes.
Oh, it's fucking hilarious.
Oh my God.
Right, let's review them.
Muggles wear bike helmets
even when they're off their bike.
Yes, I do.
Corner.
Muggles don't like folding the corners're off their bike. Yes, I do. Corner. Muggles don't like
folding the corners
of pages on books.
Yeah.
Corner.
Corner fuckers.
Muggles drink water
when they're drinking
so they don't get too drunk.
Oh, that one's debatable.
I'll let it creep through.
Straight in.
What are you talking about?
It's not a top corner one,
is it?
It's a top corner corner.
It's not a top corner one.
People who do
generic impressions
of where you're from,
where you're from,
calm down, calm down.
Tiddly-D potatoes,
put a shrimp in the barbie,
put a muggle in the fucking corner.
Actually, I should say,
when you say Tiddly-D potatoes,
it's Diddly-D potatoes.
Even though nobody says it,
it's Diddly-D.
It's whatever the fuck I want it to be.
I'm not mocking the person mocking you.
You know, the person mocking you says Diddly-D,
but I'm mocking them,
so I'm going to do the same thing, otherwise I'm just them. You say Tickly-D. It's Tickly-D mocking you says diddly-dee but I'm mocking them so I'm not going to do the same thing
otherwise I'm just them
you say tickly-doo
spiddly-dee
spiddly-did-dunk
football fans
get over-attached
to individual players
to the point they feel
like they need to
defend them
like their family
just go in the corner
just go in
you know what
Mitrovic
I'm not that fussed
about your health
if I'm honest
yeah
calm down Mitrovic
score a goal
just the family wanker that you parade around yeah you put the I'm not that fussed about your health, if I'm honest. Calm down, Mishavish. Score a goal.
Just the family wanker that you parade around.
Yeah.
You put the stipulation on it if it's in your house?
In the house.
I think that means that there's not many people going in the corner for this one.
If you've got it in the house, you've just been a closet muggle.
Okay.
Yeah, I'll agree with that.
If you think anybody else cares about the foot against the foot or the printed foot or the clay cast of a hand or any of that.
I've got framed footprints of my foot.
Have you?
Every year.
It's scratch and sniff.
You scratch my balls, then you sniff the picture.
What?
I don't know.
What are you talking about, kissy tulips?
What time are we on?
We time?
We've got time
before I fucking blast my dad's.
Let's fucking do it.
Verbally, verbally.
Finger blast.
Who's going?
You're going?
So we always love to end on this game
where we just take pot shots
at each other's dads.
Pot shots like this.
Andrew Stanley.
Your dad stands on the beach
waving at sailors
he does
he used to be a sailor
your dad pays for things
with exact change
fucking weirdo
counts it out
ruins the queue
and then
stands there
while the check
check the air
catches air
is that enough
you know it's enough
you've got a brain
your dad puts some hand lotion on his own back with the soles of his feet what Is that enough? You know it's enough. You've got a brain.
Your dad puts some tan lotion on his own back with the soles of his feet.
What?
He lies on his front.
Your dad keeps his tie on after work.
Just his tie.
And he's a PE teacher.
He wears it with a tracksuit.
It's weird.
Your dad picks away the clear layer around a dishwasher tablet, not realizing that it's a soluble part of the tablet.
Your dad helps with the collection basket at mass.
He's not even Catholic.
It's helpful.
It's helpful.
Your dad makes motorbike...
Your dad makes motorbike noises all the way through spin class.
Your dad brings an apple to work for his boss.
Gross.
Your dad combs his eyebrows, slides the comb into his shade pocket before confidently strutting
up the birds.
That's fair enough.
It does.
Like in the 90s Italian.
My dad used the carrier gun.
Breath free.
It's all true.
Your dad wears
the full Newcastle kit.
Two games.
Socks and all.
Worries about
himself.
He's like,
put me on.
Your dad's bigoted online
and whenever someone
corrects his spell
and he plays the victim
and says he's dyslexic
that's fair enough
your dad's favourite character
in Street Fighter
is Chun-Li
spinning bird kick
you know there's a bird
in Soul Calibur
there's a
50 in Soul Calibur
oh yeah
on the Dreamcast
the graphics started getting good
and you could go on
this like practice mode where you could go on this like
practice mode
where you could just
