Hello listeners, here is a new episode for you where me and Daniel talk about stop doing background farting.
That's how he started the podcast as well.
He'll start the podcast with a fart and he did one an hour later in the intro.
Oh, he's doing it with his mouth. He's faking farting.
Remember when I was at Marbella and there was that girl that was posing doing Instagram poses on the poolside?
And she bent down to pick up a phone or something
and I made a fart noise
and she hated us.
I think she put a hex on us.
And just looking at us
like,
joining in on the intro?
He's trying to say
he's not in the room.
Right, look,
I'm alone.
I'm alone in the room.
We do a podcast
when we're drunk.
Stop it, man.
Look, we're drunk.
Why?
He's making it look like I'm farting? He's making it look like I'm farting.
He's making it look like I'm farting and then blaming somebody that isn't here.
Which would be pretty cool.
Like, you know, if I was on my own and I was just farting and I was just riffing like this.
This is one of my greatest bits.
Excuse me.
Squeaky floorboard.
Look, trust me. We're not this drunk on the podcast.
It's just that we started drinking a lot during it.
We'll talk about being back on tour.
We'll talk about the gigs, being on the road again.
We'll actually cover a little bit about the drama of the football last week.
And we answer a few more
questions that were posed by the patrons
for the... Stop making a noise man!
I'm doing an intro!
The questions that were presented to us
by the patrons for the bonus episode.
We didn't get to do them all because there's so many. Thank you for those.
We've done a couple more of them on the pod as well.
And some dad jokes at the end.
Sloss and Humphreys on the road! Muggins and cream, cream and muggins well and some dad jokes at the end. moguls accidental rim job in the park kiss kiss kiss or a magic bean cynical just muggled it up on fucking
mugglepedia
where have you been
since 9-11
em
are you hot
I am hot
it's really sweaty
isn't it
oh Danny
that's not how
we're starting the podcast
but I'm hot
and
you know when like
fucking cakes rise
you get like little bubbles
that fucking
but it's that
like it's the same thing
that's happening to me
it's not
I can't be held responsible
when things are hot
things expand
and that includes
the air in my
your bubble all up inside
mhm
why didn't I come
why did
I thought heat rises
I thought I'd try to come out your mouth
I've got
a real strong throat game
you just shut that shit down
I felt it come up
and then
and then kind of just choked it back down from there all the way down my it come up and then and then kind of
just choked it
back down from
there all the way
down my esophagus
and then like the
fucking what do
people say it's
like fucking 47
miles of intestines
you've got or
something
is that right
I mean that was
an exaggeration
for a comedic
effect but it's
so you closed
the apoglottis
and come out
that way and
had to double
back
right all the
way back
it was like
fucking you know
when you used
to play snake
and it had to
double back on
itself and it
took anyway
when you were
really long and even at the bottom you still have to go and then you'd be looping around the back and then like fucking you know when you used to play snake and it had to double back on itself and it took anyway when you were really long
and even at the
bottom you still
have to go
and then you'd be
looping around the
back and then like
a bit of like
bonus fruit
appears or whatever
what was the bonus
thing that appeared
on snake
was it meant to be
fruit
yeah it was meant
to be fruit
hold on
was it you
that was in
some sort of
snake competition
or texting competition
I got the final
I was meant to
get in Arizona
for what I went into to get in Arizona for what
I went into
phones for you
you know what
I think I've
listened to this
fairly recently
on one of our
flashback episodes
but it was so long
ago we could
revisit this
so basically
you get a
gun into
phones for you
I think it was
and show them
your high score
on snake
and then you get a letter
in the post
if you are invited
to go out to the final
to compete live
like oh that's
Snake for you
that's going to be
the saddest trip
in the world
mate I couldn't go
I couldn't go
no no I just
mean to the phones
for you store
to like get on the
fucking bus
I was already at the
shops I went
I went Danny
think about it
I was already at the
shops I was like
yeah I mean even then the shops I was like yeah
I mean even then
the walk to walk up there
I'd be like
there's a very good chance
they're just going to go
650 you fucking mad
I was busy doing
a big clothes shop
and I was like
yeah Sean hold me back
I've got some business
to attend to
quickly popping the phones
for you
and showed them
your high score
fucking by the time
I got home
there was a letter
you're the best snake
I've ever seen
you need to come to Arizona
and play snake
against a bunch of
from Brian Nokia
Which is me and a bunch of Japanese kids
Just sat in Arizona sweating my back
So anyway
Turns out that I cheated
Did you?
You can just pause it every time you're playing
It took us fucking ages man
I completed Snake
I think that was only true
Because I remember hearing about that
But you can't do that On the Nokia 3330 I think that was only true because I remember hearing about that tactic.
But you can't do that on the Nokia 3330.
And the Nokia 3330 was like...
The 3310 was what everyone fucking had.
It might have been the 5110 or it might have been the 3110.
I can't remember now.
I think I said it was the 33 or something on the original podcast
that was spoke about it.
Aye.
But the memory of the memory is flaky new.
Aye. But aye.
So basically, you played it for a bit, but what you do
is you zigzag up and down from left
to right, or right to left, right? But you always
leave a gap along the top and the bottom
to loop around. Aye. So that you can
run the back again and chase your tail.
And eventually it closes the gap of where
stuff can appear. So you get the
bit on the way, but then continue your route. But I just kept pausing it and playing it closes the gap of where stuff can appear so you get the bit on the way but then you continue your route
but I just kept pausing it and playing it
Is this like the time that with 100%
sincerity during lockdown
you told me that you reckoned you were one of the best
in the world at beat save?
I've got fucking class at beat save on me
You got any idea?
I've been reselling the zone on beat save
Aye, and I'm sure you did
but you were genuinely, the way you were speaking to me
was as if like
like I could
I could compete at the fucking
Tokyo games for it
do you want to ask something
uh huh
so when I'm in the headset
and I'm on the top setting
on beat say about
and like
it's almost like
my limbs different now
what the thing
it's just fucking hitting these beats
and that's where they're gonna be
because what I did right
I didn't get reactive
I learned the path I learned the path of where the beats were gonna be where they're going to be because what I did right I didn't get reactive I learned the path
I learned the path
of where the beats were going to be
and how to get to them right
and I'm fucking smooshing away right
and I feel like a fucking Jedi
when I'm in there
and then I tell you that
and you took the piss with us
and that right
so I set up a fucking camera
and recorded myself
I tell you what
when I look back at it
I just went
I'm deleting that
it looked a lot less gracious than what it felt like in the headset but that is the thing Tell you what, when I look back at it, I just went, I'm deleting that.
It looked a lot less gracious than what it felt like in the headset.
But that is the thing about fucking VR.
You know the game's super hot, right?
And that's the one where every time you move, that's when time moves.
But if you stay perfectly still, time's frozen. So you get to duck out of the way of bullets like Agent Smith?
Ah, it's probably like Matrix fucking shit.
Like that always, you feel like a fucking ninja.
And then when you watch your friends play it,
they're just doing like half of a squat
and then like a very poor child's roly-poly.
And you're just like, oh, is that what I fucking look like?
That was so cool when those bullets wasn't passed.
But just in your room, there's just a cold, dark reality, isn't it?
And isn't that
so true
for reality as well
we think we look
way cooler
than we actually
fucking are
oh is they
I live my life
off and think
I'm cool as fuck
and then just see myself
on like a video
and go
oh no
I think that's what
being old is
is like you just
fucking get to
a point where
you just remember all the yous
that you fucking went through so you just don't put up with anyone's shit because everyone's just
like a fucking version of you or a friend that you had like 30 40 fucking 50 years ago and you're
just like like it's all fake this is all fucking fake i missed the swagger i had when i was younger
i missed the swagger i had two years ago
you know when you see like uh like adam raw being like super confident and all that swagger I had when I was younger. I miss the swagger I had two years ago.
You know when you see like Adam Rowe being super confident and all that.
Like fucking, like he's just
Billy walking through life. I often look at his
crack and go, I used to have that.
I used to have that air.
But I also think
I think your fucking priorities
change a bit. I was talking to Brad about this
today over lunch and it was just like,
there's a point in your career or your life, right,
where your work is your fucking,
or something is your focus.
Normally it's like your work, right?
You're like, I want to be the best at this.
I want to do this as good as possible.
And then you do that for a couple of years,
and then you realise that, like,
it's just, there's no end to it.
There's just achievement after achievement
after achievement or whatever, and you're just never going to be fucking satisfied to it. There's just achievement after achievement after achievement or whatever.
And you're just never going to be fucking satisfied with it.
You're just insatiable.
Yeah.
And then you just suddenly realise, man, like, I've got, you know, you've got a good thing going on.
Like, you're like, and you're like, man, I've had a good fucking life.
I don't need to fucking, like, I can have other priorities now.
But then what happens, especially for me, is like, I can feel the 24 year old in my head being like
you fucking coward
let's try for more
aye
aye we had drive
aye but then again
like it's a man
I'm not gonna listen
to fucking any 24
like the 24 year old me
that's like fucking
focus you gotta do
all this fucking shit
I'm like man
like it was easy
when you were
like that fucking age
but now
I've just got
different priorities
I get happiness
from many other things
like there was a point
when stand up was not like my only habit,
it was like my main...
It exhilarated you?
Yeah, constantly.
And then, I mean, it still does,
but it's gotten to the point now where there's definitely other bits in my life
where I'm just like, oh, I don't know if I'll sacrifice
as much of my time in the pursuit of this.
Or maybe that's just... Do you think maybe it's because we've come out of lockdown and um we've got like so comfortable
in my homes because i've i've i mean how long have i been on the road now like 10 days
is that it i think i might be oh hold on we'll come away this is a this is a dodgy one because you went home for a bit in between
but I've stayed out
since I saw you
so
you left
during the football
because all gigs
were off
during the football
so you popped back home
I've still been on the road
since then
aye
but
I never got homesick
because I was just
taking my London flat
or whatever
aye
like it never felt it never really even though it was my home it's where I lived it'sick because I was just, like, in my London flat or whatever. Aye. Like, it never felt...
It never really...
Even though it was my home, it's where I lived, it's where my wife was.
Aye.
It never felt like...
Like, it was not home comfort.
It's like, well, I've got no...
I've probably spoiled myself by building a house.
Aye.
Like, yeah.
I mean...
I mean, London's fucking great, but already...
Let's just do the complaints from this room alone
let's whinge off the top
right
we're in a little flat
we're in a little flat
which is fine
and it's obviously very expensive
because it's fucking London
so just the house prices
and even the rent prices
but it's probably cheaper
than hotels would have been
if we got two rooms
for a week
aye
but I tell you what
a fucking hotel would have had
aircon
there's not a hotel
like
well
there is in Australia
but there's not any many fucking hotels that do not have fucking aircon there's no hotel like well there is in australia but there's not a any many fucking
hotels that do not have fucking aircon in it but when you get to big cities and i noticed this a
lot in australia as well which is they just they just so many houses just don't have aircon yeah
because they're just like because they're used to the temperature like they can sleep in the
fucking heat or whatever but man you need i find it impossible to sleep in heat like i would much
rather you play i can sleep through loud music so i'm gonna edit it out of the podcast because
you don't need to hear this right but there's a flat in this block that's left the receiver off
the hook from the not the phone but the intercom for the buzzer downstairs if you leave your
intercom off the hook it'll just start like an incessant ring just to tell you to put it back on the hook.
But there's clearly no one living there.
And also in such a London fucking fashion, it's just like, yeah, there's noises.
Like night time's fucking noisy and someone else's fucking problem.
I've done that where I was kind of just not guided meditation, but just closing my eyes and started like taking in new sensations.
You still doing ASMRs?
I haven't done it in ages.
I think I need to
though
I think I'm missing it
let's get back to that
in a second
but I was in London
when I lived there
sat on the balcony
closed my eyes
and I tried to pick up
all of the different noises
have you ever done that
when you listen to music
and you try to listen
for all the different
instruments or whatever
layered on top of each other
and there's like
so much there
but you just hear it
as one thing
when you're just
passively listening to it
with a periphery
of your ears but if you focus on it you can thing when you're just passively listening to it with a periphery of your ears.
But if you focus on it,
you can find all these different bits in it.
I started doing that with the ambient noise in London
and I've counted about 15 different things
that were making noise.
Aye, and it's just all grand.
Aye, and so I come to terms with that again.
What under-seasoned?
Absolutely.
I keep letting my battery run out of charge on stuff.
I keep losing things.
I used to be classic travelling.
I don't think that's true, mate.
I've travelled with you for 10 years
and we both know that we always come back
with a fucking suitcase that's 5 kilograms lighter
than when we leave.
That's true, but you know what didn't happen?
I never got flustered once.
I get flustered about that shit now
because I've been so used
I've been so used
to my routine at home
my routine's been shattered
like I've fucking
you clutch onto it
like a comfort blanket
you've got your things
that like
whereas I didn't have
that thing to clutch onto
you'd lose
so now I'm not
I wouldn't give a fuck
if I just
didn't have enough
pairs of spare boxes
I'd just go out
to the shop and I'm like oh now I'm gonna run out enough pairs of spare boxes I just got out of the shop
and I'm like
oh no I'm gonna run out
by tomorrow
or I just pop to the shop
no no
now when I forget
fucking
if I forget anything
on tour
I blame Cara
instantly right
because we both got
me way
because we both got qualities
Cara is phenomenal
with dates
Cara can tell you
the fucking date
of any fucking date
we did anything
like you ask her
what happened a couple
of weeks ago
she'll be able to tell you
to the fucking date what is that because of a memory or does her, what happened a couple of weeks ago she'll be able to tell you to the fucking day one
Is that because of her memory or does she know what photos to look for
or does she like the
Yeah, she's able to do it through fucking photos
but she's also got a fairly fucking decent
memory
and that's what she's good at
and I'm good at fucking, you know, dealing with spiders
and facts and statistics that I've pulled
out of me
fucking arse and whatnot
but like and she knows my fucking weak points and facts and statistics that I've pulled out of me. Fucking arse and whatnot.
So, but like, and she knows my fucking weak point.
So when I'm leaving, she's always good.
She's like, you don't need a jacket today.
And I'm like, fucking... Oh, she saved our bacon the other day.
So we're both trying to leave the house in jeans, jacket,
fucking sweater or whatever.
Backpack on my back.
And she was like
Yes I kind of hate that
Yeah
And then I can cross my mind
And you go
Oh yeah fuck
So she's dead
Go do that stuff
So there was one time
One fucking tour left
Right
And I packed
This is for seven days
Three pairs of jeans
Eight shirts
Three hoodies
Two pairs of shoes
And no underwear
And no socks
and I just messaged her
once I realised
and I was like
how could you let me
leave the house like this
does she even play any part
in you leaving the house like that
no but she does
because she's got different
packing rules
that I do
man I pack the morning off
oh yeah
like five minutes before
I do leave
that blows her mind
but I used to be mint at that
that's what I think yeah I used to be mint at that,
that's what I think.
Yeah.
I used to fucking like be on point
with being a last minute leaver.
Aye,
I was just fucking used to it
but she was like,
you should do it the night before
and I'm like,
no, no,
morning off,
like it gives you an extra,
for me,
back is something
that you have to do
and I hate fucking waking up
so if I wake up
for something I have to do,
I'll wake up earlier
and then my airport experience
is probably going to be
a little bit easier because I'm less fucking
like just on the edge of sleepness
so
I'll wake up and I'll pack and most of the time
she'll go and because she knows
I'm an idiot and she knows I'm forgetful
and she goes have you got this have you got this have you got this
and then she fucking didn't and look what
happened. That's because you lean
on it too much. I know
but at this point she's got to be there to lean on it. I'll know, but at this point, she's got to be there to
lean on. I put a ring on the finger, mate. She's got to be there to lean on.
That's the fucking deal, isn't it?
I mean, you haven't made vows yet, but
it's definitely foreshadowing.
I'm there to
get rid of beasties.
One day I was like, I'm not getting rid of a spider.
You've let her down.
I've devalued myself.
That was one of the things. You've broke your psychological contract.
Oh, if I can speak it off.
Right.
So, you know, Big Fat Ray, our cat.
Yes.
Right.
So for anyone that doesn't know the history of Ray,
she was a breeding cat for like 10 years
and was locked in one room in a house.
This isn't when we owned her, obviously.
I'm not bragging about that.
Being like, we're near Barsie Dogs and Cats Home
and can I just say, fuck you.
She was just breeding cats for 10 years.
They'd just bring another cat to have sex with her.
She'd be pregnant and eating fucking biscuits
and then she'd give birth and then once they were...
Children were getting taken away.
Aye.
There's a lot of psychological damage to a cat.
Aye.
So my parents rescued her from that situation, right?
And she came back and she was very bad with the other cat we had in the house.
And she also would only eat biscuits.
Like you fucking put tuna in front of her nose and she wouldn't do anything.
And then me and Cara got her at the start of lockdown.
And Cara gets very sad because like old cats aren't meant to like play too much.
Like, cause they, they, they, they, in the same way that you play when you're young and when you're older, you walk.
You'll pull a muscle if you try and run like you are a kitten.
Aye.
Whereas Ray, she's still got that instinct in her
and Kara's just, she's just like,
it's because she never had a childhood.
She's living her childhood.
And I'm like, I think she's just a cat that enjoys playing.
Anyway, she's fat.
She can't chase things.
Like, she goes around the garden.
She pretends to chase things in front of us.
Is she fat or is she all a big ball of hair?
If you shaved her, would she be fat?
Yes, aye.
And she's also got, because she had so many fucking kids,
she's got like a big fucking, like, she's got a big pregnancy belly.
Yeah.
When my parents first got her, she had no fur on the bottom of her belly
because it would drag along the floor whenever she walked.
Oh, wow.
So we've obviously got it well beyond that point.
Every time we go to the vet, they're like,
she's still a little bit overweight.
And we're like, aye. And, like, some're like she's still a little bit overweight and we're like
aye
and like
some days we're strict to her
and then some days we're not
because like
she's old and dying
and at this point
it's like
have your phone
aye
but not to the point
where it's bad for her bones
or anything
so we
you're not like
chasing her around the room
with a laser pointer
no
she doesn't want to
get her eyes out
she
carotidates me today
devastated
because
Ray got her first
confirmed kill
oh what did she destroy
Cullen
Cullen
Cullen
she came up
she killed Cullen
aye with it
how did she do it
just snapped
sat on his face
aye
he was going down on her
and he just
forgot to breathe
here's the most devastating
bit that Cara's having a hard time with.
What was the kill?
Let's see.
That's like a shrew or a mouse.
But it's a mouse.
But it's also very clearly a baby mouse.
That's not an adult mouse.
Is it not?
Man, look at the size of the head.
That's like when Disney make animals cute.
They make the head bigger, the ears bigger, the eyes cute.
I see what you're saying.
But it's got fur.
It's not like... got fur it's not like
no it's not
Brant man
that's uh
look at that
that's an infant
mouse
right so
Ray's
that mouse has
just got its
packed lunch and
it's on its way
to school
you know what
I mean
like
but Ray's
coming back in
like I've
dealt with the
problem
you're like
the kids were
never the
problem
that's like me complaining about the fucking neighbor right and then sending you around being like, the kids were never the problem. That's like me complaining about the fucking neighbour, right?
And then sending you a rap being like, look, the neighbour,
he plays music too loud sometimes.
And then his wife.
And then his guy runs one of their kids on the swing
and I just fucking push them all at the top until the chain wraps around the frame five times.
And you're like.
Smash that teeth off.
I'm like, I dealt with the neighbours.
Oh my goodness.
I'm the greatest bodyguard in the entire world
dealt with a fucking
threat
no
you murdered
a child
it's a real
sound like
fucking
BJ Penn
licking the blood
off his gloves
but it's just
the tears
of a baby
dead mouse
that was just
this thing wasn't
running away
she probably
picked it up
from a fucking
nest
I don't know
what mouse is living.
Aye, a tree.
Yeah, is it a tree?
Aye, Daniel makes the lay eggs in nests of trees.
Oh, did he?
Did he?
You know, I've been shit on by a mouse.
You've never lived.
I stopped eating getting shit on by a bird of the day.
Aye.
Sound move, that.
Aye, it was.
Yeah.
Because. You did make me look up move there. Aye, it was. Yeah. Cause.
You did make me look up first.
Yeah,
I didn't.
You basically,
we're at the door for the gig at the Grand,
and you hit the buzzer,
and you're waiting for a response,
and I look up,
right,
and there's a fucking pigeon on the barbed wire,
it's just stood balanced on the barbed wire,
and I watched its arsehole open.
And I looked at you, and I looked at you and I said
step back mate, you're about to get shat on
and you step back and the shat just hit the deck
and I did. Sound move that
if those were the people there I wouldn't have said that
I would have just said that and watched this
I mean a real friend
would have dived in front of it and taken the hit
but I mean I guess
over the top of you
I took a wee bit of parkour like a frosby flop over the top of you? Aye. Do a wee bit of parkour.
Like a Frosby flop over the top of you.
Frosby flop, catch it in the mouth.
Spit it back up right at the pigeon's eye.
Right back up its arsehole.
Some people are into that.
I guarantee you.
Somebody out there has wanked to
somebody spitting shit back up a pigeon's eyes.
Aye, probably. Aye. I bet there's at least three shit back up a pigeon's eyes. Probably.
I bet there's at least three results for that
on any porn channel.
You just need Google back anymore.
People are sick.
What did you do that
was sound to me not so long back?
There was something you'd done to me and I was just like
you could have had me there.
Or it's
was it your schnooze? You know's... Was it your schnooze?
You know how you've got like...
Oh, yeah.
You've got your schnooze.
So I've got nicotine pouches that stick in my mouth
like a dirty Scandinavian.
And you've got the fresh ones that are just in a wee tub.
And then if you're not near a bin when you take one of them out,
there's like a little thing on top where you can just put your used ones in there.
It's like a disposal bit, isn't it?
Aye.
I didn't know this rule and I just popped the top up and all right and he was about to put
one of them in his birth and i was like mate that's how we got covered the first time
so i fell for it before let's not do it again
um so you know about um the traveling we're not as good as travelling as we used to
or like
I'm speaking for myself here
I feel like with stand up as well
and I know there's a couple of variables right
like the audiences are socially distanced
and it's a bit hot and all that
I don't feel like I'm as good as I was
and there's a handful of bits about getting back to work
and I don't know if this is relatable
in other people's lanes of work as well
but I feel like
the travelling aspect
the actual stand-up
is a bit wordy
I'm sure there's
more punchlines in there
I feel like the rating
could be updated
and I'm coming back
into the world
not as good as I was
just in every
aspect of it
and it's hard
even though like
it's understandable
and it's like
somebody will put
your arm on your shoulder
and go
nah you've been
locked in for ages
it's really demoralising
at times
I mean I've had the same thing
like the past
couple of the fucking shows
I've just come off
and be like
I'm at the point now
where I just don't like
this show anymore
and it's not because
the audiences have been bad
they've just been fucking honest
like I mean
yes you can have
bigger fucking rooms
with more people in it
but
aye but they might just
laugh at everything
because the atmosphere is grand.
Exactly.
But you actually get phoned out if the room's a little bit more difficult.
Aye.
In the difficult rooms where you fucking poke holes in your arm.
Aye, and that's when it's fucking half-filled due to fucking COVID reasons.
And it's hot.
It's fucking sweaty.
And everyone's just a bit fucking tired.
So, yeah, man, I agree., over this weekend I've definitely found the
fucking weak holes in my show but then also
just at the point where I'm just like, I mean obviously
we'll work on this because
I can't fucking tour it for another six months
without
I can't just
fucking go and be like, I'm sorry
it's just what it is
you put the fucking work into the show but
it fucking kicks the shit out of you when you just get up and be like, oh man just this, what it is, what it is. Like you put the fucking work into the show, but it fucking kicks the shit out of you
when you just get up and be like,
oh man, maybe this isn't
the fucking best stand-up
I've written in my life.
Like some of it is.
And people have been lovely.
When we've met people,
they've been like fucking
really complimentary backstage,
like after the gig.
But they don't fucking know.
They don't know
what your standard is for yourself.
And I'm just not psychologically ready
to be past my best.
I had to deal with that on an athletic level.
I'm 38 right? I had to deal
with it on an athletic level when I couldn't
make the same runs I used to make in football.
My times in runs
are current bests not personal bests
and I've psychologically dealt with my
athleticism slipping
but you know when it comes to your mind
your craft, your
Aye, you do, aye
I'm not ready to let
go of. Well because also
it shouldn't be something, like with your body
that fucking, you know, deteriorates
over time, like you do have a
fucking peak time in your life when you're going to be
your most fucking athletic
but I feel like with jobs
especially, well fucking any jobs
that are skill based
or talent based
or whatever
you just consistently
get better
at those things
like
you know
the best doctors
in the world
they're not the
30 year olds
they're not the ones
in their 20s
don't get me wrong
those doctors are fucking great
but they're nowhere near
as good as the fucking
65 year olds
like yes you're maybe might not be able to do surgery but i'm pretty sure there's plenty of
them like out there you're just meant to get fucking better and now obviously the other thing
is you don't have to always be betting get we get be getting better like the climb to anything
doesn't have to be directly up that's true you can go through fucking peaks and troughs and you're
allowed to get worse, not necessarily
worse for a bit, but you're not allowed to fucking make
progress and you've got to remind yourself, like,
I might be on this fucking stump here, but it's still going up.
But man, when you're in that fucking stump,
you're like, is this the other
side? Like, is this
the decline side of the fucking
graph? Like, this can't be good.
Like, I'm really hoping that if it goes down
for a bit, fine, that's part of the journey. it's got to go start going up again and it's still got to surpass the other
mountain that we just fucking came down from and you know what i you know what i'd really like to
have as well i'd like to have like a kind of do-over and start again with open mic nights and
just scramble up all your material from pre-covid and start building a new set but like you know
going through the measures of like
getting it open
make people appear
too quick to get in
they know what it is
you can take your notes
on stage
but I've dived
straight back in
to playing like
big venues
going on cold
to warm up
so I feel like
I have to get in
with stuff that I trust
aye
I can't
like
I can't be bringing
new material
of a
warm up spot
but I'd love to just fucking climb the ladder again I'd love to like I can't be bringing new material of a warm up spot but I'd love to just
fucking claim the ladder again
I'd love to
like I'm trying
in my head
I've always been like
I'll just
you know
look forward to the fucking next show
but I'm trying to fucking
take myself back
and go like man
enjoy this one
also the jokes are there
like there are jokes there
there was a point
when all of this was fucking
doing great
and also
just because it's
just because now
it's it's not or at least
I'm not feeling that it's that good
it's like restarting a fire
this is me going into a loan references
now but like whenever their fires
go out they don't just go away and chop more fucking
wood and start entirely separate fire you blow
fucking air back into those embers
and you try and get it going again
and I think that's the thing, that's the important thing about
fucking breaks when you're doing this fucking job
is, man we've been doing double shows
all weekend and the audiences have been great
but nothing makes a joke
less funny than saying it an hour and a half
later, like I wouldn't
do that in fucking conversation
imagine like you go to a fucking party
right and you're in one room, you're in the kitchen
you're filling up your drinks and you tell a joke
and everyone
and it gets a laugh
from everyone
and then with sincerity
90 minutes later
you're in the bedroom
as if like
I just tell the same
fucking joke
you're missing people
going
are you fucking serious
are you like
a fucking little
doll with a string
in the back
like you've only got
three fucking stories
that's what
fucking record man
grander and when you tell jokes
like the whole point
of it is
you're trying to make
the audience
feel like this is
the first time
that you're telling this
it's about the performance
as well
and it's easy
to do that night to night
because you've had
a different day
you've had different things
you've been doing
like you had dinner
fucking before
you might have a drink
on stage this time you might not you might be a little fucking baked like you've got the rest of the day to fucking break it up you've had different things you've been doing like you had dinner fucking before and you might have a drink on stage this time, you might not, you might be a little
fucking baked, like you've got the rest of the day
to fucking break it up. You've cleansed your palate
within a 24 hour period, you've had a sleep
at least. Yeah, you've cleansed your fucking air
and then you can go back and, don't get me wrong, that gets
hard over a long period of time, but man
two in a fucking day, like every comic
that does it, respect it. And also
none of you fucking cunts sitting there
being like, oh I do four or five gigs a night
no no no
you do four or five
ten minute spots a night
and that is nowhere near
the same fucking thing
you're talking directly
to me here
I also
the audacity of me
to like
call comics out
as if
any comics
listen to this podcast
like as if
we're the duo
it's like it's just a favourite amongst like it's Bill Burr's Monday podcast a lot of comedians listen to this podcast like it's if we're the duo it's just a favourite amongst like it's Bill Burr's Monday podcast
a lot of comedians listen to it
just to get the fucking advice
that's not us we're just listened to by
fucking idiots
I like idiots though
did they have any questions?
they did because you know what
thank you to everybody that wrote questions in for the
Patreon bonus special we've done a video
Tom Horton asked
were the questions
on your behalf
the semantic belt
isn't there
we hadn't looked at them
we just let Tom
pitch them to us
so that we'd let them
catch us off guard
but I realised
how many there was
after the
I'm glad that was the case
but I think it's always
like embarrassing
whenever you see
somebody
and I've been part of this
before
like when you
put out a question to your
fans and you're expecting to be
inundated like I'm going to have to select a few
and then you get three
and you're like oh
alright okay
I've been ashamed of
my behaviour over the last five years
because we've got such a lovely
following and they're
so loyal and they're so nice
when we meet them
and all that right
and I'm fucking really
chuffed at the
the following that we've pruned
right
but we've actually
made them shy away
from interaction
because of all of what
attacking on mugglery
people think
to reach out to her
whether that be on social media
whether that be on the Patreon
we've like
made them think
like so many people
get in touch with us
with I don't care
if I'm being a muggle
here to reach out to you
but I just want to say this
right
and I hope people aren't
I hope
is this the correct
double negative
I hope people aren't
not reaching out to her
in case they come across
like muggles
aye
because the amount
of fucking shit
the tides went out on
with us
that we've called
on Muggle Corner aye and That we've called our muggle corner
Aye
That was just D
Everyone's a fucking
Muggle some of the time
So erm
But you slot especially
Especially
Kai's gonna try and make you feel better
And I'm just gonna make
This is good cop bad cop
And that's the tactic for the rest
He's gonna be like
Oh no you're fine
Like we love it when people reach out
And I'm gonna be like
We do love it when you reach out But you's going to be like we do love it when you reach out
but you's are
I've been engaged with me
but you's are fucking muggles
when you do it though
and that's fine
it's fine to be muggles
but you are fucking muggle though
what's good is
I'm in a spot where
I have a manageable
amount of engagement
like people that reach out to me
I can usually get back to them
aye
I don't go into any
DMs
aye
and I should
because that's where
I met David Schwimmer
oh fuck aye
you can't
but man like
you go
man when you win the game
leave the table
yeah fair enough
like there's
fair enough
fucking aye
Matthew Perry's like
I didn't even text back
I still just aye
I won't say that
Instagram
and this is such
a fucking
privileged complaint
Instagram
do us a favour
can I make
there a separate
DM box
for people that
are verified
just because
I don't want to see
what the people
who really love me
think and what
they want to say
I just want to know
what celebrity friends
I can have
I just want to be
able to go
this isn't one of the questions
but if you could have any celebrity friend
that was just like from a pali with you
who would it be?
you know how like
David Kourios is just really pali
with Israel Adesanya the UFC fighter
he clocked that
they're just like good pals the pair of them
I was like oh that's pretty cool
who would you like to have I'll go for three I'll go I think No, it doesn't. They're just like fucking good pals, the pair of them. I was like, oh, that's pretty cool.
Who would you like to have?
I'll go for three.
I'll go, I think.
Capaldi was a fun one.
Capaldi's a great one.
Seth Rogen would be great to know.
Oh, class.
Seth Rogen would be so good to know.
Like, you just go round.
Oh, yeah.
Here's mine.
Fucking nothing but Ned.
Andy Samberg. You nothing but Ned Andy Samberg
aye
you know if Andy Samberg
just took a shane of his
re-shoot of his
and then just wanted to
fucking bromance with us
aye
that'd be great
Andy Samberg would be right
and you'd put him off
by like really getting
into the friendship
and then writing a script
about it
and he'd be like
oh god
this is the number one
reason why I lose friends
stuff taking an angle
on us man
I do hear that though
you know when
especially with comedy
like I ended up
hanging out with Bridges
quite a bit
in 2014
in Melbourne
because we're in the same hotel
and the festival
and all that right
and we're just like
we're fucking
we're strucken off
because we're both
like working class lads
and I kept wanting
to ask him
to do Punch Drunk
and I kept wanting
to ask him
to do Set List
but I'm like
oh just
different cross that lane, man.
He's been your pal.
He gets that all his life.
Just fucking...
Just be a friend with him.
Just let it be so, man.
They haven't looked like you once,
I'm a Gotham.
Oh, I'd fucking love that
if you come to Blythe.
Olivia Colman.
Aye, Olivia Colman from...
What did I...
I've watched her in quite a bit.
Peep Show,
the Queen one with... So I saw her in Peep Show second. Everyone knew her from Peep Show. in quite a bit. Peep Show, the Queen one with...
So I saw her in Peep Show second.
Everyone knew her from Peep Show.
And Natalie loved her from Peep Show.
But I saw her in some...
What have I seen her in recently?
Let me...
Normally I'm very good at being a human IMDB.
It's not...
It's not Killing Eve, is it?
I'm mistaking it for Fiona Shaw there.
Aye.
I see.
Everyone's screaming
at the podcast now
no they know
what we are now
aye
they're used to it
aye they're still
screaming though
because we know
what they are
they're screaming
at the podcast
kind of guys
so she's in
The Favourite
that's not what
I saw her in
no
I mean she's in
loads
she's had a
fucking belt
in a couple of years
it wasn't the crown
I saw her in either
the crown The saw her in either the crown
the father
Fleabag
I saw her in Fleabag
but I already knew her
from something
when I watched Fleabag
them that follow
Watership Down
Let's Dance
Thomas the Tank Engine
and Friends
that might have been it
National Theatre
Broadchurch
of course she's in Broadchurch
of course she's in Broadchurch
you're skipping past stuff
I'm skipping past more Thomas
she's begging the Thomas the Tank Engine universe
I didn't realise that
The Night Manager, Peep Show
London Road, The Lobster
these aren't in fucking order, The Secrets
Mr Sloan, Rev, W1A
Cuban Fury, This is Ginzy
Jesus Christ what a career, Lock, Run The W1A, Cuban Fury, This is Gen Z. Jesus Christ, what a career.
Lock, Run, The Suspicions, I'll Give It a Year, Bad Sugar.
None of these ringing a bell?
Iron Lady, See Me.
Maybe I was just watching a Twitter feed or something.
I didn't know what it was then.
She's in, I think she's got a bunch of new movies coming out
because obviously she got the fucking Oscar for the favourite.
So you want to be her pal?
I think she'd be good, right? Because obviously she got the fucking Oscar for the favourite so you want to be her pal I think she'd be good
right because obviously
like your standard
one to go for
is somebody that
like you can go out
and have a bromance
with and like hang out
and get drunk
and just like talk
fucking shit
and have like fun
experiences
but like
I reckon Olivia Colman
is still like dead
down to earth
like every time
you stayed in London
she would insist
that you stayed with her
and like
she'd make sure
that she had time off
and if she didn't
she'd like leave
a wee fruit basket
out for you in the morning
being like
I've left this stuff
in the fridge for you
do you think she'd be
quite mothering
not necessarily
no
not necessarily
I think she'd just be
a good friend
like I just think
and that's
and like man
like this weekend
after you like
have a couple of tough gigs
and you feel bad
about yourself
you just go back and she's in her jammies
and she goes, I was going to go to bed,
but we'll have a bottle of wine.
Go on.
I've opened this.
I didn't want to ask you how you're having it.
Tell me how it is.
Of course you want to talk about it.
Come on, we can.
She sends her husband to bed
because you know how important our time is together.
Aye.
So, now that was my question. That was a good question. and our time is together aye so anyone else
no that was my question
that was a good question
oh in that case
I'll ask one
which will cause
genuine fucking rage
this is the most
divisive question
in the fucking world
oh really
and
no we've done it before
aye
but to
genuinely to people at home
play this with your friends
your partner
your family
and you're gonna lose your fucking minds at them you didn't know how much a lot of this stuff meant to you But genuinely to people at home, play this with your friends, your partner, your family,
and you're going to lose your fucking minds at them.
You didn't know how much a lot of this stuff meant to you.
What's your dream tuck shop collection, right?
So you get to a tuck shop, you can have any drink,
any chocolate, and any bag of cookies.
Any chocolate or sweet. I might change this with a fucking wind leg.
Aye, but I want you To commit to record
What your choices are
Because this is
You think you cause
Controversy
I'm not the fucking boy
However
I'm just kind of fucking right
I'm at the tuck shop
Right now
Right
I'm fucking
I'm looking right now
I'm going to make a snap judgment
This is just me instincts tagging
Right
This isn't me like
Measuring everything against
Like I'm not going to
Garn through
And think each sweet
The
The Cadbury's caramel Caught think each sweet the Cadbury's Caramel
caught my eye
the Caramel
Cadbury's Caramel
that's a
that's a very
bad start
you bite into a soft pocket
of fucking joy
Cadbury's Caramel
that's
boom
boom
I guess
I mean just such
like that
that's a middle tier chocolate
yeah give us one of them
purple bottles of Oasis
I don't even care what kind of berries in it.
The purple looks good.
Get that purple in it.
Man, this is so left field.
Get that purple in my belly.
You're not going for any favourites.
Yeah, yeah.
Flame grilled crisps.
They've got crinkles on them.
McCoy's.
Flame grilled McCoy's.
Aye.
Crisp with a...
You know what I mean?
I don't want it fizzling and popping on my tongue like a skip or a quaver.
Like, how are you, man? How are you? Wise up. So I've made some snap judgments on me. crisp with a you know what I mean I don't want it fizzing and popping on my tongue like a skip or a quaver like oh yeah man oh yeah
wise up
so I've made some
snap judgments on me
I don't want any
you know what
I don't want any fizzy pop
just fucking breaking in
giving it away
and give it something
that's refreshing
I'm hot
it fucking
gan's doing like a dream
tastes nice and sweet
right
and then
oh that fucking caramel
stale on my teeth
oh
that's just
caramel so
the worst choice I've ever heard,
and I'll not name her friend,
but her decision was,
and I'm not fucking kidding,
bounty,
which already,
the worst,
any one of you
that likes bounties,
there's something wrong with you.
Hold on, I'm not having that.
They're nobody's favourite.
They're no one's favourite.
I like a bounty,
but how am I not liking a fucking one shot, one kill? The ratio's all wrong, man. I don't having that. They're nobody's favourite. They're no one's favourite. I like a bounty, but how am I not
like a fucking one shot,
one kill.
The ratios are wrong, man.
I don't want that much coconut
with that much chocolate, man.
Like, how come
when you have caramel,
it's not that fucking,
like,
when you have bounties,
90% fucking coconut.
You know what as well?
It's like pitch,
like it's like for,
it's tropical,
it's like coconut and all that,
but like,
that's for you once
to fucking taste
the suntan lotion in your mouth
so it was bounty
a fizzy water
sparkling water
who's your mate like?
I'll tell you who it is after the podcast
after the podcast you can now protect him
I am
I don't want to sell him or her down the river
it's a her
and and I am. I am. I don't want to sell him or her down the river. It's a her. It's a her. Yeah, you said.
And sea salt and vinegar crisps from Sainsbury's.
Salt and vinegar crisps are bouncing in a spot of water.
Aye. That was her choice.
That was her fucking death row touch-up.
One of my mates.
Aye. Not for long.
Maybe I won't tell you.
Maybe it's not worth the controversy
and the fallout
here's my choices
right
um
part of me
I would say
I am brew
I love I am brew
right
but I just don't want to be
so stereotypical Scottish
like that would factor
into my decision
so I'm going to go for
Lilt
Lilt's good man
Lilt's a fucking
I haven't had Lilt in a while
you know what I've been
revisiting lately
The orange Lucas Aid
Not the sport
But the like
You know the medical Lucas Aid
Yeah the one that you get
When you're fucking sick
When you've got diarrhea
They give you
And it's got a sticky bottle
Aye
And the lit
And for some reason
The hole is massive
Like all other
All other bottles agreed
That there was a perfect
Bottleneck size
Aye
And fucking Lucas Aid
Did too much coke and missed the meeting
and they were like mouths are massive
let's just make this one
it's just been huffing poppers
it's gaping, it's like a cup
it's like a sports direct mug
you?
sports direct mug?
you just can't be a sports direct mug
you didn't, you said it
I just returned serve
so Lil, drink I didn't you said it fuck off I just returned serve get out of here
so Lil
drink
I didn't expect
that from you
and
I can't even
say them properly
but
where's
where's
knickknacks
Worcester sauce
Worcester sauce
is it Worcester
Worcester sauce
what are you trying
to say
Worcester
Worchester
Worchester do you call it Leicester Lecester Worcester
Do you call it
Leicester
Leicester
Leicester
They won the league
A couple of years ago
Good for them
So go for it
I love those
There'd be Chelsea
At the FA Cup
More recently
You could have used
That trophy
But
It seems you deleted
That from your memory
I did
I fucking repressed it
Put it way down
I've only got memories
Of the Champions
Fucking league
Mate
That's the only
and the Euros
oh come on
I haven't spoken
about that
probably yet
and then
get your fucking
crisps out the way
so I won't be
tired with that
my chocolate
would be
Double Decker
and I would never
have accepted
Double Decker
as an answer
when I was about 22
it's a bit of a bounty
one that you know
in that
fuck off
it's no one's favourite in Double Decker absolutely wrong answer when I was about 22 it's a bit of a bounty one that you're not in that fuck off it's no one's favourite
in Double Decker
absolutely wrong
there are people out there
taking their shirts off
and committing to
Daniel Slott's tattoos
because they're like
that's it
that's
that he's nailed it
like he is the voice
of the fucking people
Double Decker
absolutely
you think you're coming
in swinging with
Double Decker
100% of it
my favourite's a topic
oh wait
wise up
wise the fuck up?
Yours?
What was yours?
A fucking caramel dairy milk.
Not even,
not even a galaxy caramel.
Galaxy who make far superior fucking chocolate.
Cadbury's caramel?
Mmm,
you said dairy milk.
Cadbury's caramel?
That's what I meant.
When I say dairy milk caramel,
there's,
sorry,
it's the Cadbury's who make dairy milk,
but they've got the pockets of caramel.
Even then,
even then.
Now they've got the sexy bunny on the advert.
Oh, now I see why you picked it.
Trying to get a fucking deal
so you can fucking make the rabbit and shagger.
I'll get your fucking game.
So, double decker, yeah.
This was the butt of my joke a fucking while back
where I was ranting on,
it was on the podcast,
it was about the M&M's store
I was like
M&M's
anybody's favourite
chocolate
I'd probably
rather have a
double decker
than an M&M
you wouldn't
put a double
decker store
in Leicester Square
double deckers
are king
so that was
me crack
but for that
to even operate
that has to be
a low
to mid tier
suite
that's why
you're not
enjoying your
material
because your
references are
raw that's why people didn't enjoying your material because your references are wrong
that's why people
didn't like that joke
he wrote double deckers
top tier
god tier
I absolutely think so
I think it's
I think it's in everyone's
I think it's in most
people's top five
I don't even
fucking know
what's real anymore
me
you know what I mean
right
people from Blythe
I know none of you like
people from Blythe
vote Tory
he sat here saying
double decker's a top tier suite
I'm like just
double decker

in reality
sometimes I'm just saying
fucking Eva
I'm wrong on the entire world

believe that you're capable
of fucking making
egg and bread in the toaster
because you come out
of fucking left field
with mad fucking claims

You're treating yourself with a galaxy.
Love yourself, man.

That's a bimbo.
Love yourself, man.
That's a bimbo of a sweet.
I'm not marrying it.
A fucking bimbo of a sweet.
I'm not marrying it.
I'm not spending the rest of my life with her.
I'm just having to sell a good five minutes.
Nah, not even.
It's like saying Mars bar, man.
Like, come on.

I do like a double decker
that's what I'm saying
like
you know what
it's like
I'm enjoying double deckers
more with age
like we just picked up a whiskey
and had a swig of whiskey there
it's for the more mature palate
but don't go on
fucking swinging in
like oh

So,

Aye.
You know what?
Ask us tomorrow to a different lot from the tug shop.
No, I'm quite consistent with my ones.
I got occasionally switched
to pickled onion monster munch.
Why, don't call us that.
You were fucking come wielding
pickle inhaling.
Aye.
Do you know how fucking Milo's kids

godchildren

Milo's like
Dan Dan and
Kai Kai are

accent and all that
I think in here
it was like
the one with the
kind face
oh that's nice to hear which

sake who's when she's older and uh so i'm like oh so far the story's good but like it's not good
right it's a shit sandwich but the shit's the bread right it starts off she can't remember who
i am motherfucker i thought i made an impact right and then can't remember who I am motherfucker I thought that made
an impact
right
and then she could
remember who I am
and she appeared
as a compliment
in the memory

pickled by birth which I'm 82%
confident you are
I hate to be a fucking card truther here
but
get the fucking
I will
because your fucking mum not rolled it into cigarettes
so this is I will. I will. Because your fucking mum not rolled it into cigarettes.
Skinned over there.
So this is a follow-up to the question and answer on Patreon.
If you haven't watched that already,
you need to become a bigger fan of the podcast.
So this is from Olav Dokes.
This is the first one.
That's I Love Dicks.
I Love Dicks?
Yeah.
Not Olav Dokes.
I Love Dicks. I Love Dicks? Yeah. Not I Love Dokes, I Love Dicks.
I'd just like a thorough rundown of what both Muggins and Cream went through
in the hours leading up to, during and after the final.
And I just want to say to Olav,
I'm very grateful to the England team
for allowing me to run through every emotion I'm capable of having.
I went through euphoria. I went through capable of having. I went through euphoria.
I went through desolation.
I went through pride for strangers and the boys that were playing.
And I went from far disgusting strangers to me countrymen
and the way the representatives were outside of Wembley and on the internet.
So I've went through pride.
I've went through disgust.
I've went through elation.
I've went through despair.
I was threadbare by the end of that.
I went through joy and happiness with my friends that support England.
I went through a feeling of rejection from my friends that hate England.
I just want to say aye.
Thanks for that emotional rollercoaster.
Football's brilliant.
And I was so close to Nirvana.
Aye.
And you got the real Nirvana experience in the end.
Blowing my head off.
So before the game, I was like, I'm not watching it.
You went through acceptance because you not watching it you went through acceptance
because you texted me
I can't live in a world
where fucking England win
and even people that don't support football in Scotland
if England win it's going to be
fucking worse than Brexit
because they're going to use it as this fucking justification
for all of like
it's all this
but on the other side of things the team of we're the fucking great it's all this and just but it's on the other side of things
the team of young players
are fucking great
they're fine examples
of fucking young men
Gareth Southgate
he's a gentleman
aye
so we went to
Gareth and Laura's
for some
dinner
fucking ravioli
aye
we had Italian
so we had spaghetti
and we had garlic bread
and we had some Prosecco.
Bigger Peronis.
And a couple of lovely Italian red wines
and we played Risk and...
That real Italian game, Risk,
where they try and conquer the world.
Yeah, we just kept joining Germany later on
and then switching sides.
So we were like, Risk is a long game.
Sometimes it lasts up to like one or two hours.
But what we weren't expecting was Cara to be the most
man
Hitler
was not
stabbed in the way of Cara
absolutely bitchy
man
like I didn't know
it was possible to win it
in four rounds
like I didn't realise
you could just
fucking win the game
by just expanding
you could do on pass on
in Risk
aye
so then
like England score
first
Luke Shaw
and it's within the first fucking two minutes.
Tremendous goal.
Straight after we blundered and gave away a corner for nothing
where it looked like the fucking heads were gone after a minute
and then we scored after two and we're like,
oh, phew, it looked like it was going to be a shoddy start.
And obviously other people were fucking devastated,
but it's just at this point,
like after the argument that we all had
after the fucking England went out in the World Cup
and we all celebrated like fucking mad in front of them
I was just like, you know what
I'll just fucking separate it
I didn't like when Liverpool won the league
but I didn't let it ruin my life
I was fucking angry about it for a couple of hours
and then I was like, I like Ian Starling
I like Andrew Maxwell, Alfie Brown
there's good people out there
so I text you
and I text Barry and I text Barry
and I was just like
hey fucking best of luck
and you know
whatever
and we were playing the game
and then Cara won
and then Italy equalised
and we opened another bottle of red
and it was just so tense
because it was either going to be
England won on penalties
which would be
this
great redemption story for
who missed the final penalty
in 96 I think it was
and was the reason that they didn't win it then
so he's brought this young team of fucking players up
but also in the same way after England
finally beat Germany it was just this fucking
massive thing where we're like we've done it
we won the war it's that all over again
like we beat the fucking Germans we've beaten the curse
we're like if they beat their penalties curse,
it's going to be twice as
unbearable as before, because they're truly
going to think they're invincible, because that was always
their big fucking downfall.
But if they lose on penalties...
It must have been a real bittersweet for you lads, though, because
you guys are there, celebrating that
they're saving the penalties from England,
right? But you're also there going,
is that Marcus Rashford
the one that fed all those kids
and give up a better opposition
to the British government
which I'm part of Britain
the better opposition
to the British government
than any of our politicians
whether that be fucking
Labour or the SNP
or anything
has ever put up with her
is that man there
taking that penalty
yes he's sad
yes he's a
oh fin your face you cunt
that must have been bittersweet.
To like the man, but wish him the worst possible heartache
that he could possibly go through.
We weren't...
It was like when fucking Saka missed.
I was with Arsenal fans, and they were like,
man, we love fucking Saka so much.
Saka's a sweetheart, man.
He's an absolute fucking sweetheart,
and he shouldn't have been taking the fucking penalty.
But for us, it's like, man, these are all...
And man, you can say that about most of the people.
They're all fucking good men.
Like, we've seen in the way that they've stood
up for each other
and they've been a
fucking team
afterwards like
they've all come
out and they've
all fucking condemned
it they've all
stood beside each
other like it's a
good fucking team
of lads feel
fucking bad for
all of them but
I was very happy
that there was a
whole bunch of
racists sat and
a whole bunch of
bigots
fired from work
the fucking
anybody right so
there's people
that fucking
like Andrew Lawrence
fuck Andrew Lawrence
like
fuck Andrew Lawrence
coming out and
pointing out that
I'm just saying
the white players scored
it's just such a
freezing cold take
freezing cold take
saying
oh I'd rather
the kids starved
and the goal went in
right
like
don't get me wrong
they are
fucking jokes
so I'll always forgive
someone for telling jokes
but I'm just like
man those aren't funny jokes
here's something right
just saying the white
players scored
Andrew Lawrence
alright
right
the white players scored
the black players didn't
how about
if there wasn't
cunts like you
in the country
that were
booing the knee
that were standing up
against
actively standing up
against the movement
for equality
if there wasn't cunts like you
making them players
feel insecure
feel like they weren't
part of the country
that they were born in
making them
like maybe
they would have had a bit more
air in their chest
maybe their chin would have been
that little bit higher
maybe their bowel would have
went in the fucking top corner
if it wasn't for you
you daft little cunt
aye
like maybe
that it was the colour of their skin but only because of racists in the fucking top corner if it wasn't for you you daft little cunt aye like mebby's
that
it was the colour
of their skin
but only because
of racists
that didn't back them
and that's why
they didn't score
arseholes man
aye
so anyway
I've been through
some emotions
no no man
and they're all
fucking fallacies
and the thing is
again I didn't
know if I could take
any pride in my
fucking friends being sad
but again
it's just fucking being Scottish.
You just don't want the fucking English to win.
So when they lost, we cheered a bit.
Cara filmed it.
And at the end of the fucking video, the thing is, I'm like, don't send that to anyone like this.
It's just a reaction.
We're drunk.
We're enjoying the moment.
But when we did drive home, there were fireworks in Scotland.
Of course there is.
You're like, oh, they tried to invade us.
They tried to invade us once in the 1500s.
Can you correct this?
So you're like that.
You've got a historic...
That's not the only most recent awful thing you've done to us.
And then you're like,
we're playing against Italy.
They're the genesis of invasion.
They started the whole invasion game.
They worked their way up England,
became us,
and then that's when we tried to invade Scotland.
If you can show me one racist Italian,
I'll eat my hat.
If you can show me a single racist Italian, maybe I'll agree that there's a little bit of hypocrisy.
But until that happens...
Your historic beef with England started becoming real straw man when we're playing against
Italy and Germany.
I can't, as a history buff, I can't think of any evil Italian men.
The Mario Brothers were great.
Recently, the Lazio fan base started petitioning for a male-only stand.
Oh, that's just
so they could all kiss
and that was like
in 2018
or 2019
or something
I heard this
because they didn't qualify
for the Champions League
and the journalists were going
it's not a good time
for Lazio to be on the world stage
this is very funny
because this is what's coming out
of their fan base right now
this is very funny
because a couple of days ago
I read an article
about how
I think it's
I think it's in Saudi Arabia.
No, maybe it's not. Maybe I've got this wrong.
But there's a country where women have been banned from sports stadiums for all their lives.
So it was the story of this girl who would dress as a boy to go watch her football team because she loved fucking football so much.
But now she gets to go in dressed as a girl because they're finally opening up to women.
Imagine how ashamed of your country would be
if Saudi Arabia do something
before you
you're like we want to get women banned
from the fucking stands
Saudi Arabia they let who in?
are we the bad guys?
are we taking a
massive step back in all this?
so it's a strange one because I think a massive step back in all this. So,
it's a strange one because I think
England not winning come
with a little bit of like,
oh, there was a lot of people who didn't deserve
that trophy as far as
the government fucking trying to
like piggyback on it,
pulling on the England tops after not even
the offside rule, but they're trying to like fucking
ride off some of the glory of the country
that they represent
and you're like
this fucking
Boris Johnson
and Priti Patel
and all that
like nah
he didn't get to
he didn't get to
swim in this glory
yet they were trying
to fucking swim
right at the front
of that glory
with all the fucking
bunt nudes
out of Downing Street
and all that
I was like
this cunt's never
kicked a ball in his life
and then you've got all these racists
that were on social media, the people that were
fighting at Wembley, they didn't deserve to win.
For us not to win, I am
collateral damage so those people
couldn't get to
ride that glory.
And what it did is, and it's such a
fucking horrible way for things to
start making progress, but it really
highlighted that racism
was real
and anybody that
say somebody that
lives in the
northeast of England
and they're not like
surrounded by
people from different
cultures
they're only surrounded
by white people
so they don't know
that racism is there
and it's alive
and fucking
thriving
thriving is the
wrong word for it
but you know what I'm saying
alright
flirty
flirty
so they're they're there going like oh what's all this tech and the name driving to the wrong word for it but you know what I'm saying alright flirty flirty
so they're
they're there going like
oh what's all this
taking the knee mush
and all that
what's this Black Lives Matter
fucking crap
that's taking up all the news
I'm bored of this
me and they're just
talking like that
because they didn't realise
it's real
and then all of a sudden
they get to see how
fucking real it is
because of the way
that those three lads
who missed their penalty
were treated
and then they
have to make a fucking snap
stand at the other side of the lane
because they don't want to be associated
with these fucking absolute monsters.
So they've been there in this ignorance
of like, oh man, I just want it to go away.
My life's fucking...
And then I've seen a lot more
of the all lives matter type of people
being progressive
because they've
actually had their
fucking eyes
peeled up into
the problem
right so I
mean there's
I agree with you
there's some
fucking positives
in it but
mainly it's that
you don't get to
play footage of
this final every
fucking two years
for the rest
I haven't watched
any of it back yet
fair enough what's the next question
oh this one's from Sid
this is from Sid
will you suck my
Jesus Sid come on man
I know you didn't even specify which one it was
do you want me to both suck it at once
that wasn't even DM'd man
like that's um thank god you can't
post pictures on Instagram comments
because i think
i knew what was following that and it was a thirsty thirsty mouth but somehow already wet
so the second question was uh from sid was uh does anyone have a joke that you wish you'd thought of
first either because it's so brilliant or because you think it would really suit you.
And I've actually got to go to a response for this
because when I first started stand-up,
I started writing about having squint surgery on me.
You know how I had a bong eye?
Aye.
And then I had the surgery to get it fixed.
And I had to wear like a patch glasses
to make sure like my eyes would work independently.
Like you have to put like a prism on.
So like these big NHS put like a prism on so like these big nhs glasses with a prism on and the prism would mean that my eye when it's relaxed
is looking in the same direction as me eye that's not pointing the wrong way right and then if those
two work together to make one clear image i can have the surgery so i started writing about that
experience because it's quite a good well of comedy. And while I was like,
just, you know,
a couple of biro scribbles on a bit of paper
and I was like about to take it to an open mic night,
I watched Jason Byrne
destroy that topic on Live at the Apollo.
He just fucking annihilated that entire topic.
And I was like,
oh, that's just,
that's got a fork in it.
Yeah, yeah, that's done aye
uh huh
eh
for me one of the ones
I guess fucking
Jim Jefferies gun control bit
it's just another one
of those ones
where just
like so thoroughly
every bit of the
fucking argument's done
like it's such a good
15 fucking 20 minutes
and he leaves no stone unturned
um
I do you know do you know what's one of my favourite bits of all time Chris rocks I love black people no stone unturned um I
do you know
it's one of my
favourite bits of all time
Chris rocks
I love black people
I wish I wrote it
I'd love to see the reaction
because I guarantee
me doing that joke
does not get the same reaction
do you know
apparently
I mean this is just
like fucking
mythical
talk of legend
on the circuit
is that
that never went down well
for him
for a long time.
Really?
He fucking persevered
and he tells himself like
I know this is funny
because I find it funny
and I trust my
I trust my
I trust my own judgement
and I trust my own taste
so what I'm not doing is getting it across correctly.
This is a translation problem, not an idea problem.
And he persevered with it and eventually he got it to be
one of the greatest routines of all time.
When I first started watching comedy,
because I was late to the party with comedy,
I saw a routine by Rod Gilbert about the luggage handle.
Oh, yeah, that's good.
And that's still to this day is one of the best routines ever.
And that's still a bit of a lot of fucking YouTube.
That's a fucking...
If you watch that on YouTube now, it's probably dead pixelated and that.
It's quite an old bit, isn't it?
But that is so good.
You know what's good about it for looking at the craft?
Is you'll take a little bit of time doing the setup, right?
And then a punchline comes. And you want everything after that to be a little bit of time doing the setup right and then a punch lane comes
and you want
everything after that
to be a quick route
of a punch lane
my fucker
every lane's a punch lane
you get to the first
punch lane
then every single
lane's a punch lane
and it goes on
and on
with just every
next sentence
that comes out
of his mouth
is a punch lane
aye
erm
good question thatline aye good question
that's a good question thanks Sid
so we're obviously not going to get through all of these
just do one more then
what's the worst injury you've had
and how did it happen
yours will be more interesting
so shall I go first
yeah go on then
I've broken
like all of
my fingers and all of my toes at separate
points but like also man like you
everyone breaks their toes
apparently people break them without knowing
yeah yeah because you rarely get that x-ray
yeah you just bang it and it's so
and it's such a small fucking bone
that most of the time it just fucking heals
back together like if it's broken it's not making too much fucking difference
to the foot
and there used to be where I grew up in East Weems
there used to be like at the beach
when the tide was out just loads of fucking
crab pools
and like fucking back in the day when I was about 8 you'd get crabs
that were like fucking dinner plate size
though to be fair I don't know if they were
or whether it was just small
but like I
remember them
being huge
like as big
as your
fucking face
and then when
we were
teenagers
we tried
to
one of them
was called
Matty
we tried
to fucking
recreate that
magic
and they
were just
way smaller
and I picked
up one
crab rock
and fucking
and I just
slammed back
down on my
finger and
broke like
two of them but that's
the extent of my injuries
my dad once broke his tailbone
trying to beat his 12 year old
in a fucking ski race
did he? he broke his cock legs?
it was me and him and
we were skiing somewhere in America and he was
like he was like he broke his back short enough
to a 12 year old
he did
he did he fell down He was like... He probably was back showing off to a 12-year-old. Aye. He did. Dad jokes.
He did.
He fell down.
He's broken every bone
in his body
that the doctors just go,
yeah, it's broken.
Like, there's no treatment.
You kind of put your tailbone
in a castlet.
You're kind of a splint.
Broken tailbone,
he's broken ribs,
and he's broken his collarbone.
And those are all three things
where you go and the doctor goes,
yeah, it's broken.
Like, that's...
Whoops. Yeah, right like that's whoops
yeah right
your big whoops
yeah
in America
they're like
$19,000
for that diagnosis
oh man
and $5,000
for the sling
so my
because I
I've actually
remarkably getting away
pretty unscathed
in this life
considering how many
close calls I've had
I broke my cheekbone
in a jet skate accident
once
right and I'm I'm in the hospital I've had. I broke my cheekbone in a jet ski accident once, right?
And I'm in the hospital.
I've surely told this story
on the podcast before,
but here I go again.
I'm in the hospital, right?
Because I woke up in the ambulance.
I'd been unconscious in the seat.
The other jet skiers
pulled us out and stuff, right?
And I fucking, I'm in,
I'm in the hospital bed
in this ward
that's 24-hour surveillance.
So they've got to have someone watching you the whole time, right?
And there's just a conveyor belt of specialists and students
and fucking everybody coming to have a look at us
because this fucking medical miracle is happening on this bed, right?
Your cock got bigger.
It was massive.
It was bigger than me.
I was mostly cock.
There was a second bed for it
it was actually
they asked the penis
they asked it when it woke up
if it wanted you removed
it actually turned out
it turned out to be a trick on the eye
and it was actually that I'd shrunk
because I was the same size
but I'd pruned in the water.
But because I jet ski with a condom on,
we cock.
As all the pro jet skiers do, by the way.
That's like a little...
It makes it more streamlined.
Everyone knows that.
So, they're coming in.
And they've took samples.
Of what?
Of body fluid coming out my nose, right?
Brain fluid coming out my nose.
And they're like...
There's not much of this.
They're like...
They're talking of us.
And they're trying to explain to us what's happening.
I'm fucking in a daze
because I've just been knocked on the bushes
by a pair of hammerballs.
Meanwhile, all of your memories of your granddad
are dribbling out of your nose.
And it's just like Casper, the friendly ghost,
fucking screaming and that
and just dissipating into the ether.
Right, so they're taking samples,
whoopie nose.
They're testing them.
They're testing them again.
They're showing people the results.
They're fucking just in wonder
at what the fuck's going on with me in this bed, right?
And they're like,
it's not seawater
because there's proteins in it.
There's no proteins in the sea?
No ones?
Well, not to this company.
This is how they're dumbing it down to me, right?
There's fluid constantly coming out of your nose.
It's not seawater because we've tested it.
It's bodily fluid.
There's proteins in it.
But if it was a fractured skull and it's brain fluid,
you shouldn't be talking to her right now.
Aye.
And you were like, aye, but I'm Geordie.
Aye, this is now a normal attack.
Yeah, a well-educated me-hoo.
I went to Eton.
I've had elocution lessons.
I live in Brighton-upon-Hove
So they're fucking
They're just in the wilderness
I've had 24 hours surveillance
Right
They're testing this fucking brain fluid
They're in awe
That I'm talking
Right
And then somebody figured it out
What was happening
Come
I'd ruptured me tear gland
And I was crying up me nose
And there was tears
flowing up my nose
and I was getting
back
Billy Two Rivers
Billy Two Rivers
Billy Two Rivers
Big Chief
Gripping Candle
so either way
the worst injury
that I've ever had
is a ruptured tear gland
made him cry
through the nose
it was actually
the last time I cried
aye it's very weird that you're like my biggest injury is the time that I've ever had is a ruptured tear I made him cry through the nose it was actually the last time he cried it's very weird
that you're like
my biggest injury
is the time that I cried
through my nose
and not the time
I bled out my arsehole
I lied through me teeth
it's why I'm so crooked
like me
do you want to do another hour
or are we done
no no we're done
so
we've got to wake
we've got to fucking wake up
at like
8 or 9am tomorrow
we've got to
we've got to carry a giant
naked cardboard cutout
of meat
to the hire car place
it's a
very limiting version
of the term
we
I'm carrying your back
mate
so you're carrying yourself
no that's yours
I've carried you for enough
of my career
it's about time you carried
yourself
so Daniel
got a gift
from the gigs
that we've just
been doing at
the Clapham Grand
they give him a
naked cut out
of me
that's almost
life size
just a smaller
penis
so we're on tour the next couple of days
Norwich, Halifax
then Barnacastle and then after
that it's Edinburgh and America
tour dates will be announced soon
yes and thank you to the patrons
that asked the questions we had a lot of fun
doing the actual Q&A and
if you haven't seen that already,
the video is up on Patreon.
And I'm going to put the audio only one up
because I know some of you
only listen to this at work
when your eyes are busy
or whatever.
So I'll put the audio up.
And your hands.
And your hands.
So I'll put the audio up.
So thanks for your questions
and thanks for watching it.
And we'll keep putting
the questions that are remaining
into the regular podcast.
Cadbury's Cream Eggs stopped their How Do You Eat Yours campaign
after your dad kept sending them videos
of him trying to swallow them whole, passing
out and then shitting himself
always ended with just him crying into a toilet
while your mum stroked his back just saying
I just want to be a snake
I just want to be a snake
That's so wild that I chose because this is mine just saying, I just want to be a snake. I just want to be a snake.
That's so wild,
that's yours because this is mine.
I started playing a flute and your dad randomly rose out of a wicker basket like a
snake and started wiggling.
Your dad opens for Andrew Lawrence.
Your dad
tested positive for COVID
And started texting to pick up the lateral flow test
And people tell him he was pregnant
Your dad's Patronus is a hummingbird
Drinking crack sweat from the hole
It hovers there so gracefully
But what it does
It's so disgusting
And he says they're going
I want to be a snake
that's why he gets
easy access to the asshole
he's down there
trying to surround his ankles
trying to suck his own dick
that's why
that's why he slithers in
fuck you
your dad measures his cock
in millimetres
so he can tell people
how big it is
in double digits
your dad films himself
wanking
because he's convinced that one day
he's going to catch a ghost watching him doing it.
There's perverts on the other side, I'm telling you.
They were perverts in this life.
They're perverts on the next.
There's no way they'd just go back from that.
There's no way you can go through Wales
and not watch me wank.
It's the number one thing you'd use it for.
Is that narcissistic?
Omni-present. Omni-present, you're not watching this. I mean, you're slow wank. It's the number one thing you'd use it for. Is that narcissistic? Omni-present. Omni-present, you're not watching this.
I mean, slow wanking.
Your dad uses the hand dryer
and the public toilets on his arsehole
instead of wiping his bum.
Just to get the hummingbird
off of him.
Because your dad's Patronus is of
my dad's arse as well.
Your dad stabs
his cigarette out on the church donation
plate.
Baller.
Aye, but also just so rude, just don't go, Kev.
Your dad always chills
in the chair for 20 minutes after a haircut
waiting for his boner to go away
and he's like
oh
me pants are haunted
looks like it's
Casper the too friendly ghost
now watch this
right
I'm gonna stop this
aye
stop it forever
and ganna ganna
