All right, it's Kai Humphries again here, Mr Muggins, with another flashback episode for you.
Isn't this like a little advent calendar, the build-up to Christmas, right?
You just get an old podcast behind every door.
Well, behind this door is an episode from December 2017.
It's another thick cast with Elliot.
If you've been keeping up with the flashback series, you've already heard that episode is Elliot Steel Thick.
Now, this one is titled Thick Cast 2
where we just give Elliot another
grill and we've found a good formula
we're stuck to it, it's part of a trilogy so you're going to get the third
one soon, I hope you enjoy it
as much as we enjoyed making a fool
of Elliot, here you are road muggins and cream cream and muggins straight thuggin living the dream that's our intro
fucking muggles
tickling the clit
inside your head
that makes you laugh
they said it can't be done
oh in the same seats
that's hack
oh muggles
accidental
red job in the park
kiss kiss kiss
or am I just being cynical
muggled it up
on fucking
mugglopedia
where have you been
since 9-11
I don't know why...
You're making us record too quickly.
Why?
Because I didn't know...
When you're a cream, you're a cream from the moment you smoke your first muggins.
I don't even know where that's from.
It's from West Side Story.
Oh.
I don't know West Side Story.
You press record and you didn't have anything in the bar.
Because I don't have anything in the bar.
We weren't just introduced to the podcast by saying,
Hello, my name's Daniel Sloss.
This is Kai Humphries,
welcome to Sloss and Humphries
on the Road
slash Muggins and Cream.
Sorry we've not done
a podcast,
but we did record two,
but they both
failed to record.
That would have been
a nice opening.
You do that then.
Right.
No, hold on,
let's go on the fire.
I don't know
where this West Side story,
you don't know
the musical Hamilton.
You just mention it now.
It's the biggest
fucking musical
around right now.
It's about Lewis Hamilton.
Right. Right. and he goes to
that place in
Scotland
Hamilton
correct
alright it's
about
slavery
Hamilton
thanks for
going there
why did you
look at Elliot
for advice
because he's a
fan of slavery
you know about
musicals
anyway yes we
are back on the
podcast sorry
it's been a couple of weeks,
but we did generally record two and it's fucked up.
So Lord knows if this will be fucking recorded,
but if it is, yay.
We've got a new memory card.
We've got a new memory card
and we're going to be checking it every 10 minutes.
So let's fucking hope to God that it is saved.
We've been up to lots,
but we spoke about them on the last two podcasts,
which you don't listen to.
We're sorry that you didn't get a podcast to listen to,
but I'm even
more sorry that I
had to talk to you
for nothing
I just sat in a
room
just had a wee
blast
high energy
just really
hamming it up
for the audience
that would never
perceive it
and then we got
Gareth Waugh
and we recorded
that and it also
didn't record
we'll put weed
in his coffee
like THC oil
not just fucking weed
yeah
not
like the
crumble it in
that's why I used to
make weed brownies
which you just
ground up weed
you just put it in
brownie mix
and there'd be points
you're just eating
chunks of fucking leaves
what do you want
milk
milk sugars
two sugars
three hot rocks
three hot rocks
boil the
heat the cup
from the bottom
aye
I miss the days
of resin
if you don't know
much about marijuana
basically it comes
in grass green
the actual marijuana
and then you've got
hashish which is
like
it looks like poo
you get nine bar
yeah
that's when you see
people who've got
hot rocks
some people
like for me
hashish was always
what you get
when you couldn't
get any actual
fucking weed
so like
now when people
now when people choose
I think it's kind of
a bit hipster now
hasn't it
yeah
it's like become
the thing that's like
uncommon but like
people are like
oh nice
yeah
no we moved on
from that
yeah it's like
it's not hipster
to go for the shit
version of things
that's like doing
like coke
that is 90%
washing powder
being like
yeah it's just
a bit different
I just like
mix it up
that's the thing
I was talking to
Fred about today like you know how you always you've got other friends hi well you know what
i do other podcasts that don't fail to record uh you know how anyone you know in the 80s and 90s
will tell you about like like nelson's a perfect example nelson be like man pills back in the 80s
were so much better than pills nowadays tolerance had 20 years and what it does i cannot stand that
arrogance right because you ask any people from that generation and every single one of them will admit that marijuana has gotten stronger
every single one will be like oh back in my day weed wasn't that fucking strong but now it knocks
me for six right and you bring up so pills are stronger now nah there's no logic behind that
yeah science has moved on way less than gardening yeah it's definitely the tolerance right it's like
if you do pills when you're like 19 in the 90s, right?
You're going to have a blast that is nothing like when you're 30.
Speaking of drug addicts, we've got Elliot still in the podcast.
We're recovering you.
Still sober, are you?
Yeah.
How long have you been sober for?
Like 60-something days now.
You'll be sucked up there.
You'll be cloned.
60-something days. I'd like to
point out that
I'm not a
drug addict
not sober
the first step
is admitting
you've got a
problem
and the second
step is owning
it
those should be
the two things
I've got a
problem
I'll just
guess I'll
just hand
him my
shit I never had a problem with drugs just guess I'll just hand him a shit
I never
I never had a
problem with drugs
I was absolutely kidding
but the fact that
you're so wound up by it
makes it so much better
oh man
you've just given me
to my meetings again
yeah
your alcoholic meetings
oh well
why don't we bring
your net off as well
no no
the jailing on inside
I think fucking
I'm genuinely tempted
to do
okay
is it court orderedordered therapy?
No, basically,
I'll tell the story.
I was really down and everything,
you know,
because I was drinking
and all of that stuff,
but not heavily,
but in comedy,
you guys have to be drunk.
But a lot.
But a lot.
You're not smart enough
to be down in the dumps.
You should have this bovine sort of just...
Yeah, like Kai.
Like he's too stupid to ever feel sadness because that would require being aware
of anything outside of the keys
I'm just misunderstood
maybe it's your accent
but yeah
I went to this counselling place
and they were like oh because you're
under 25 we'll give it to you and stuff
and then I stopped drinking suddenly oh I'm happy all the time and I go to these counselling meetings and they're like oh because you're under 25 we'll give it to you and stuff and then i stopped drinking suddenly oh i'm happy all the time and i go to these counseling meetings and
they're like how have you been this week i'm not really good um i think there's someone who probably
really needs this and i'm taking up 12 sessions oh you're just you're turning up to the dentist
to get your teeth brushed it's like it's like it's like it's like going to a and a with a stub
toe me and the guy just chat about karate for like 30 minutes in one of the sessions
which is nothing
to do with anything
I would do
I would do therapy
because I totally think
that I am
like level headed
and fine
and I would just love
to see
because I know
deep down it's not true
but I'm just like
but where's
where's my flaws
I would love for like
to just
to get fully psych evaluated
because
they'd find some shit
to massage in your head like aye but I'm wondering what it to get fully psych-evaluated. They'd find some shit to massage in your head.
Aye, but I want to know what it is.
They'd definitely find some fucking dark corners in there.
But most of my dark corners come out on stage.
Because that's your therapy, right?
Yeah.
So if the audience could talk back,
they could probably tell you a thing or two.
What's wrong with you?
Aye, but if they were talking back,
I'd be dead angry and I'd kick them out.
There's one of your problems.
How does that make you feel?
My guy's wicked because he sometimes
when I do speak about
something bad
he just justifies it
he goes oh man
well you know
some people's morals
are here and some are there
so you know
that's this week done
and I'm like
oh cool
thanks for giving me
an excuse
he doesn't even look up
from playing Angry Birds
he's just looking
at a photo of his
photo of that cat
hanging from the
washing line
saying hang in there he's watching looking at a photo of his photo of that cat hanging from the washing line saying hang in there
he's watching
a ticket counter
countdown
I honestly think
if I had a therapy
session
I'd have like
a sound hour
chat with that bloke
and then go out
for a pint
I reckon
I'd just be like
two mates
having a chat
do you reckon
as a comic
if you go to therapy
you might know
the answer to this
Elliot do you call me kid I because I reckon that's the thing, as a comic, like, if you go to therapy, you might know the answer to this, Elliot.
Do you call me kid?
I think, yeah.
No, I think I was going to say Kenneth.
No, I tell you what, kiddo.
You got spunk.
It's on your jacket.
It's on your chin.
Do you reckon there's a point, like, if you go to therapy, because I reckon for the first
three, I would definitely be trying to make them laugh.
I'm like, look, you might be a professional,
but there must be a point when the performance stops.
Because I reckon every time I'd be in there,
it must take a while to get all the...
I don't know if they're walls, but, like,
I'm like this all the time.
I'm always on.
I think it might make them a little bit nervous
to find out, like, I think the therapist would get nervous
if they found out you're a comedian.
Nah. Nah? Nah.
They get
psychopaths going in there and talk about
wanting to behead people. You're going to
make them nervous because you make
people laugh. Well, no, because you think you're
writing about them. Because you're self-conscious.
I went to the opticians once and as soon as the optician...
Once.
There's your problem
There's thousands of times
on one of those occasions
I was at the new optician
in Edinburgh
and em
no that wasn't
it doesn't matter
it's a relevant story
but em
the optician
didn't know where he was
because he couldn't read the signs
I'd be mapping upside down Don't think he was just in he couldn't read the signs I'd be mapping
upside down
don't think he was
just in a bar
holding up the pint glasses
the optician found out
it was a comedian
he just asked
too many questions
I told him I was a comedian
and he like
actually got a bit
of a tremble on
got a little bit
like nervous shaking
because he thought
I would have been
writing jokes about him
I hear
I mean you fulfilled
the prophecy
you just marked it
on a podcast.
Fucking self-fulfilling prophecy.
Shouldn't have trembled.
It's better always.
It was better when you weren't trembling.
I don't think man is therapy, actually.
I think it's school counselling or guidance something or other.
Oh, right.
Where they sort of direct you or help you find...
It's a careers advisor.
That's what I've been going to.
Yeah, wait, wait.
So you're still in high school.
I'm like, yeah.
I was just wondering.
Sorry, guys.
Sorry, guys.
I'm in detention.
Sorry, lads.
I just, yeah.
Sorry, I tripped on one of the girls
on the playground
because her pants are here.
I got two weeks detention.
I reckon you lot got detention
because I got detention
once ever, right?
I got it once a week.
Oh, man.
I reckon you got proper detention sentences. Oh, man. I reckon you got proper detention sentences.
Oh, man, I went, so in my sixth form...
You got 35 years to life.
In my sixth form, basically...
Hi, I lived.
I was doing good at sixth form.
Well, no, no, I wasn't.
That's why I was kicked out, actually.
Right, so...
He just did a proper
he just did a proper
Yui in his story
so I was fucking
a bunch of girls
sorry
sorry
sorry
sorry
so I was
I was having a wank
like it's not
what you said at all
have you seen that
Dave Chappelle clip
with Rick James
where Rick James goes
nah I wasn't rubbing
my feet on his couch
yeah I was rubbing
my feet on his couch
Rick James does
basically
I worked at school
in detention
not in detention
in sixth form sorry
sorry in December
so when I was in the army
nah
yeah
I used to
just never show up for
I lived 10 minutes walk
from my sixth form
when does this story start
I told you not to let me
get high before
that's true we did
when are any of those
sentences you start and finish
we've got to subscribe
essentially
I got detention
a few times
and when
but I never turned up
to detentions
because I was like
what are you going to
like I'll just go home
yeah what are you going to do
give me double detention
and yeah they did exactly that
oh did they?
Called you bluff?
Yeah, fair play to them.
And then, so I was sat in the detention
and my mate Matt was in there.
So I was just having a chat with Matt
and they were like, you can't talk in here.
And I was like, what are you going to do?
Give me another detention.
But you had this form you used to have to fill out
about bunking.
But like the questions were so ridiculous.
Bunking?
Yeah, yeah.
Skipping school.
Oh, right.
Sorry, I thought you meant, like, bed bunking.
Like, I prefer the top bunk.
Bed bunking?
So they had this, like, sheet you had.
But it was like a big pamphlet sort of thing.
And then one of the questions was, like, multiple choice.
And it was like, what should you say when someone asks you to skip school?
And it was like, yeah, let's do it.
Come on, let's go.
Or, no way, man.
Like, that's the level of things we're dealing with.
No way, hombre.
I ain't done with that.
It's like when your teacher's trying to be straight.
Oh, man, yeah.
It was just the cringiest thing.
And one of the questions was like,
what do you do when you skip school?
Skip leg day.
What do you think I'm doing?
So I wrote, I go behind the bins and shoot up.
Because I was like, no.
Yeah, yeah. You wrote that? Yeah, because I was like, no one's ever going to read this stuff.
Anyway, fast forward to when they're kicking me out and I'm in a meeting with my dad.
They bring out the booklet and they go to my dad.
We had to have a meeting because we didn't know if he was serious.
This is what your son has been doing.
This is how we regard his education.
And my dad
the comedian is sat there like you you know when he's like not expected it but he has to be a dad
and be angry at me they have to be one of them what if he's right oh come on like no no it's
like full bomb threats that you've got to check every single one going behind the bins and shooting
up but then why did you say it because when when it's like... You can't be trusted.
You bunk school, right?
You don't come to second's detention.
You're snitching on yourself with lies.
Yeah, but I'm not going to do that, am I?
Like, behind the bins.
Like, if I skip school, no one's at home.
I mean, you've not said a good example.
It's not like you're a grade A student.
It could have been a cry for help.
Aye.
Why would I shoot up behind the bins, though,
if nobody's at home?
I can just go home and do it.
No, I'm skipping school.
They may just think you've got loose lips.
Same chips.
So I done that way.
I wrote a lie on lateness at work,
and I had to fill in the lateness form at the leisure centre.
And I put on, when I was getting my T-shirt out the cupboard,
I stepped into Narnia and had a massive epic adventure.
And when I came back, even though three years had passed in Narnia,
only 30 minutes had passed in the real world so that's why
I'm 30 minutes late and I can't
go to the office for it.
I had to call my dad in to see if
it was real because
because what if they're right, you know?
Well this brings us nicely on to
our new favourite
section of the show.
Elliot's Pop Quiz.
So, Elliot, obviously you get annoyed at us calling you thick because it's basically you are.
And you don't think you are because you're very intelligent in other ways.
Because if you get angry when we call you thick because you're thick,
because if you weren't thick and we called you thick, you wouldn't be you'd maintain like man that's just confused me so we've got i haven't managed to do this week's quiz in that section so they are all just fucking
but they're i've tried to yeah just what's the mark so like say i get how many questions
all right let's say there's 20 i can get this to like 20 questions Yeah, just... What's the mark? So, like, say I get... How many questions are there? Let's go... Forget marks. It's just for entertainment.
You're going to get none right.
All right, let's say there's 20.
I can get this to, like, 20 questions.
Right?
And so you get a point.
If you get more than 12, right, which is...
That's a push.
You get a care package.
It's that 60%.
Okay.
60%.
And they're not ridiculously hard this time.
Right. 60% and they're not ridiculously hard this time which large animal is the only creature thought to produce its own suntan lotion
from its natural secretions
so what animal makes its own suntan lotion
is it humans
no why would we need suntan lotion
no but it's just not good enough
we're still making it
you think we make one with suntan lotion No but it's just not good enough But we're still making it We're still
Like you know
You think we're making one with suntan lotion
Why would we need suntan lotion
No because right
Listen
Before you jump in
Okay
Grill me
Like
Is this why he's sad sticks to you
You see the way
We like
Make shit in our body
Yeah
So like
Like insulin
You make insulin
But some people don't get enough
insulin so they inject the insulin so like the same way we create a little bit of something like
you know there might be something to be in the skin that's like oh yeah we can sort out these
sun rays you know what that's actually a very good explanation this is that is actually a perfect
example of elliot's intelligence he'll make the dumbest thing but then explain it really rashly
you know oh no i can't and i don't know if that's because it's either
you're secretly
you are smart in the way we said
which is like it's not knowledge smart
but it's intellect smart it's applying knowledge
or you're so dumb it's contagious
I can't tell
if you're smart
you wedge a round peg into a square hole
you just fucking hammer it in
and also when you get out to sea
on holiday,
would you go,
oh, my natural secretion suntan lotion is washed off.
No, because it's waterproof.
I'm going to walk into the shade.
No, it's...
And let it resecrete.
Are you not getting it on your bed?
Because there's no sun in your bedroom, is there?
Everybody's like,
okay, we're indoors now, under the covers.
I'm not saying you're, like, oozing the stuff, but I'm just saying, like, the cells might do...
Maybe something in the sweat is a suntan lotion type thing.
Man, you've got to think, the body does, like, so many amazing things we don't know about.
It's such a, like...
What, no, that you don't know about.
Like, a science knows them all.
Oh, because everyone listening to the podcast has a degree in biology.
Right, one.
You are impressed with yourself there?
You probably...
You fucking...
You curtsied?
The answer is
hippo.
I didn't know that either.
Oh, okay.
Okay.
Which fantasy kingdom
was found in the back of the wardrobe
and featured Aslan and a white witch?
Narnia.
There we go.
Hi, do you remember that time you went there?
Got detention because of it.
Elliot was shooting up behind it.
He fucking really took Narnia down a dark, dark alley.
What mythical animal had the head and body of a lion
and the wings and talons of an eagle?
The griffin. Correct. eagle? The griffin.
Correct.
Ten points to griffins.
What is Samuel L. Jackson's middle name?
L.
Wait, because that would start with an E.
So do you think his name is Samuel E. Jackson?
But just his friend his name is... Do you think his name is Samuel E. Jackson? But just his friend's name as hell, yeah.
No, I just thought it was Lewandowski then.
Oh, yeah, after the fucking Polish footballer.
Yeah.
Or did you think his name was...
I thought his name was originally Sam U. L. Jackson.
It's Leroy.
I mean, if you guessed, I would have called you racist.
In which year was Halley's Comet last visible from Earth?
1999.
1986.
Okay. You nodded like you were right
the body language of correctness
of no
okay
how many times has Donald Trump been married
bonus points for everyone
your name and extra bonus points
for everyone you bang
so there's a possible there's a possible of and extra bonus points for everyone you bang.
So there's a possible of seven points here.
Oh.
Are you giving away?
Oh, okay.
Oh, no, I said...
Oh, balls.
Are you giving away?
No, no, because...
You're invisible by three.
No, no, no, because if you'd actually
listened to the original question...
You can't bang one of them
because she's dead, perhaps. No, no, I'll explain at the end. So to the original question... You can't bang one of them because she's dead, perhaps.
No, no, I'll explain it at the end.
So, how many times has Donald Trump been married?
Three times.
Three times.
Three fingers when he did it, what are you doing?
Worst quiz master ever.
Right, name them.
Melania.
Yeah.
Gwenedir.
No, But good case
Candy
No that's his current wife's
Strip of name
No it's
Ivana and Marla
So the possible seven was
How many times
Has Donald Trump been married
Three
I thought his daughter
Was called Ivanka
Yeah but
You don't want to marry someone
who's got, like, a close name to your kids, do you?
No, it was...
Yeah, but you have...
Wait, wait, wait.
You need a kid after the mum.
She's like, you don't...
Oh, we made it.
Oh, is that a mum?
You don't...
You don't...
You don't have a kid
and then meet the mum.
Sorry, you can't be the daughter of the kid.
I just had...
Your names are too similar.
That's why my mum didn't... That's why my dad didn't marry someone called danielle love of his life he first my dad had me
right no i thought i thought like he had he had a bunker and then but i'm saying like as soon as
someone like if you've got a daughter called a bunker and then someone named ivana comes along
you've got to be like all right like i'm not gonna marry this. It's just a bit too close.
Sure.
Pause this and get the charger.
Sorry, we just had to pause there just to make sure that it was all recorded
because we don't want you guys to miss anything.
And it has been banked.
You've listened to the first bit.
Yeah.
Are you listening to this or not?
Yeah.
We will release this.
So out of a possible eight points possible so far,
you have four.
So you're off. There's a few up for grabs
as long as I bang.
Ivana, Marlowe and Melania.
What is the colour of a polar bear's skin?
What are you thinking about this?
Can I just...
Why can't you get three points from Trump's wives?
Why can't you only get two points for fucking three of them?
Oh, so you can't get an extra three?
Yeah, right.
Yeah, one extra.
People would have been wondering,
like, what, do you fucking
want to get one point
for two and you still
have no extra points?
No, it's just,
I consider only two of them
half a point.
It's really horrible sexism.
That would be one and a half
points available.
All right.
No, that's one.
Yes!
Get the fuck out of here.
That's another important point.
When he got it right, he didn't believe that it was right.
By the way, you're a fucking idiot.
It's white.
No.
I was just trying to...
How many hearts does an octopus have?
Oh, can we just go back?
Well, he's thinking of that.
Do you know polar bears and grizzly bears are starting to mate in the wild now?
Are they?
This is happening.
I watched it on a documentary on an aeroplane.
Man, this sounds really interesting.
I'm trying to think of answers here.
This doesn't happen on Who Wants to Be a Million.
Who Wants to Be a Million?
I make a game show that they ask you a question,
you've got like 30 seconds to answer it,
but they start talking about your mum.
Or they're just slightly gossiping,
and every three seconds you just hear your name,
and you're like,
oh, no, no, no no no I'm gonna go two
No the answer is
Three more than I have
Three
So before you answer this question
Has anybody got any facts about Ogden Pie
If they've got nine arms
It's a male.
I want it to go really, really far.
Right, next question.
And if it's eight,
you can tell because
they've got little octopussies.
Which river discharges
the greatest volume of water in the world?
The Amazon.
Correct!
See, I feel like the problem is now,
is people want me to be stupid,
and I've come on and proved I'm not stupid.
I mean, no, you've had some pretty dumb answers so far.
The thing is, Elliot, right,
is that some of the questions,
like, probably the same amount as you,
I don't know the answer for,
but you still come across more stupid than anybody.
Because I'm a contemplator.
Because you throw an answer at it that's so dumb.
And then you justify it in a very intellectual way,
but you're just explaining how your wrong point is correct,
but it's really endearing.
Never change, we're really...
Oh, you're our favourite.
And you're the...
Yeah, I think outside of G-Tip and you're the yeah I think outside of
G-Tip
you're the
oh I'm probably
in it Cody
guest favourite
audience favourite
yeah Stanley as well
people loved it
when he was on
and Sam
from Abandonment
outside of
outside of everyone
and Barry and Rich
and Sponge
and Milo
can I point out by the way
I'd been on this podcast
twice before
and no one had sent me
one tweet
or anything
and now it's fucking non-stop about me and mountains.
Yeah, audience, if you can't handle Elliot,
it's worse, right?
You don't deserve it, Matt is dumbest.
Elliot, what is the smallest country in Europe?
The Vatican.
Correct, Vatican City.
Fucking smash.
Is that a country?
Aye.
Fucking hell, do they do a World Cup there? Is that a country? Aye. Fucking hell.
Do they do a World Cup?
Oh, do they?
I don't know.
They all come out with their little...
I guess they all...
I was going to say they all come out
in their little Pope hats,
but I guess they all don't have Popes hat.
Unless they all wear them like
in their rooms.
Can't all be Popes?
No, no, but I reckon...
The whole of the vacuum can't be...
No, but you tell me you don't reckon
a bunch of the other Popes
like when they're at the dinner table
with the napkins.
A bunch of the other Popes?
No, a bunch...
Sorry, Cardinals. A bunch of the other Popes? And I'm on trial. A bunch of the other popes like when they're at the dinner table with the napkins no but sorry cardinals a bunch of the other cardinals or wherever they are ministers we
reckon when they're all sat dinner they get all the little napkins and stuff and they fold them
into little pop hats and they're like oh look at me i'm fucking what's the one day they start
taking their piss out of them oh look at me i'm john oh i love touching kids you think there's
people that live at the vatican that aren't even like bothered about any of the
mumbo jumbo
and they're just like
oh I just grew up here
you know
grew up in the streets
grew up in the streets
used to play one touch
behind the Sistine Chapel
do you remember
when I thought
the Sistine Chapel
was called the Sixteen Chapel
oh yeah
in the Fourth River Bridge
you thought it was
the fourth one made
is it not
not back at all
why would you make
yourself funny
if you had fucking wheels
no
did you actually think
it was the fourth road bridge
is it not the fourth road bridge
no it's over the river
fourth
is it the fourth river
no
no
it's
no no no
I'm just saying
why is the river called fourth
there's got to be a reason
yeah but it's not spelled
it's not fourth as in fourth's not Forth as in Forth
It's F-O-R-T-H
No it's not a froth
It's the Firth of Forth
It's the
We've got the second
The second Forth Road bridge
Has just been built
That should be the eighth one
No because it doesn't multiply
The second Forth It's the second one No because it doesn't multiply The second fourth
It's the second one of four
Again again
Yeah good logic
Fuck I'll give you that one
When your mum was tidying up after you
Did she used to say it's like painting the fourth bridge
Was that the same where you're from
No
Even though you're from Fife
What about
Have you heard that before
Yeah because my mum would never stop banging on about the fourth bridge
And Corrie the Pussy
No This is one of those things where This is one of those things where You heard that before? Yeah, because my mum would never stop banging on about the fourth bridge in Corridor. Did she? No!
This is one of those things where I didn't know if it was like every parent.
I've never heard it.
I get the reference immediately because the second you stop painting it, you've got to restart painting it.
You've got to paint the other side.
Yeah.
That's the Golden Gate Bridge, isn't it?
It's like painting the fourth bridge.
What's it saying in my house?
She painted the Golden Gate Bridge.
Oh, that one in Hull?
Yeah.
Wait, because Elliot's right. Humber Bridge. I think Humbleback. I reckon he's right. in my house he painted the Golden Gate Bridge or that one in Hull yeah wait
because Elliot's right
Humber Bridge
I think Humblebrag
I reckon
I reckon he's right
I reckon the thing is
it's like painting the
Golden Gate Bridge
but because
we just did a monopoly on it
but just because
everything about
just because everything about
no no
just because everything
about your family's poor
even the fucking analogies
have to go down
like your family
couldn't afford the top drawer analogies,
so they had to go for the council estate one.
Oh, man.
Okay.
Which of the following is used in pencils?
Graphite, silicon, charcoal, phosphorus.
Oh, charcoal, my old friend.
No, graphite.
No, no, no, I know it's graphite.
I was saying because you asked me about the charcoal,
but I knew it was graphite.
Oh, my God. I was doing I know it's graphite. I was saying because you asked me about the charcoal, but I knew it was graphite. No, no.
Oh, my God.
I was doing a callback to a previous podcast.
All right, well.
I don't think I got that one wrong.
I knew it was graphite.
I mean, that's not what you said.
The gas usually filmed, filled in an electric bulb is nitrogen, hydrogen, carbon dioxide,
or oxygen.
Oxygen. Nitrogen. If it was oxygen, it would explode. hydrogen carbon dioxide or oxygen oxygen nitrogen
if it was oxygen
it would explode
good thing I'm not
on that job
no no
Elliot also thinks
they're filled with helium
because that's how
they stay on the ceiling
that's Daniel's dad
who's smarter than you by a lot.
And he was talking about...
Do you think my dad's smarter than all of us by a lot?
No.
He's not as smart as you.
So his dad said, you know when you said
the sun is made of helium and hydrogen
and you went, yeah, helium, that's why it floats.
As a joke.
Hydrogen is lighter than helium.
Yeah, but why aren't we filling balloons with hydrogen? and you went yeah helium that's why it floats as a joke hydrogen is light other than helium yeah but they might want
why aren't we filling balloons with hydrogen
because not the
Heisenberg not the Hellenberg
not the Hillsborough
not the iceberg
no not the iceberg
it would be cold
no no the hydrogen explodes
remember the big fucking blimp that explodes
The Zeppelin
The Battenberg
What's it called
Hindenburg
Hindenburg
That's the one
Yeah yeah
Hindenburg
And that was hydrogen
It exploded
So that's why they no longer
Fill blimps with them
Oh

what is the common way
for identifying
individual mountain gorillas
just ask it
Steve
Steve
Steve oh it's Barry sorry your mountain gorilla yeah Just ask it. Steve! Steve!
Steve, I was planning, sorry.
You're a mountain girl, aren't you?
Yeah.
Turn around.
Actually, is it... Oh, no, sorry, that was me.
Is it to do with, like, what trees they live in?
No.
No, but that's, you know know The area they live in
They do live in trees
I mean they don't
Gorillas don't
Gorilla
Gorilla
I thought you asked monkey
No I said individual
Mountain gorillas
Oh then this changes
Everything
Okay so what is
The common way
For identifying
Individual mountain gorillas
The way
They look
Tonight
It is It's in a kiss The way They look tonight The way they like
Charge at you
So that's when they identify them
Oh this is
They're just attacking
Well it's a risky job
Someone's got to do it
It pays well
This is nose print So they're getting printed job someone's got to do it it pays well there's his
nose print
so they're
getting the
prints off their
nose easier
what after
they've charged
I'm saying
my way
safer
than them
charging it
yeah
well yeah
you've got a
motor
you can drive
away
how do they
get a nose
print
they grab
the hair
And then whack it's face
Into the ink
And then whack it's face
Onto the paper
And then just push it away
Check it's nose print
No I think it's like
It'll be something
I don't know
Everyone says that
That Coco the gorilla
Was smart
Because it learnt sign language
But if it's
All the other gorillas
Were smart
Because they didn't get captured
Like
Do you know what I mean
So like So you reckon what i mean so like
so you reckon if we like the ones we can't catch are highly much more intellectual yeah like it's
like if you like went to live with an alien family and they gave you all this knowledge and you're
like oh this is amazing you're still having to live with the alien you're still you're still
yeah you can't go back to your buddies on earth and share it. Yeah, you were still the hillbilly that got...
And if she did go back with the other gorillas,
they don't even know sign language.
So what fucking use is it?
It's not to get them to communicate to us
so we can communicate with them.
We don't want them to have their own secret language.
That's how fucking Planet of the Apes starts.
Oh, man, you know,
this is a bit about one time I got high on thought
of the plot of Planet of the Apes
but thought of it
as original content
you pitched it to me
yeah
you're like
oh I've got this idea
about animals
that get smart
and all of a sudden
they close the gap
between intelligence
I'm sorry
and he's pitching this to me
right
this is coming from the man
who claims he invented
egg fried rice
yeah
hold on a second
has that not been brought up
on the podcast
no it's not
one time after a game of football I was at Kais and spoke to Joy and then Gab was like Yeah, hold on a second. Has that not been brought up on the podcast? No, it's not.
One time after a game of football,
I was at Kai's and smoked a joint,
and then Gab was like,
oh, is there some rice in there?
I'll make some rice.
And Kai looked at me and went,
you know what I do sometimes?
I break an egg and some rice,
stir it in,
and I'm just looking at him,
and he goes,
did I just try to pass egg fried rice up?
It's my own invention.
I mean, I discovered it independently.
It sounds like you just forgot a recipe and then went through the process.
Obviously, every time I've had egg fried rice,
I've been aware that there's egg in it,
but it's never really crossed my mind that in the kitchen, putting egg in, I just came like that.
That's how egg fried rice is done.
I've ordered a bunch
but I've never realised
that they're just there
cracking an egg here
mixing it up
but then I give that a shot
from your own free will
oh man
I do say a lot of dumb things
don't I
that was me
that time I was trying
to pitch you that
I remember that
that proper broke my heart
as well
oh yeah
yeah
because you thought
you'd come up with a concept
man I thought I'd come up
with something so smart
about like animals
like taking over and stuff
and like
it's just like
I'm so ahead of my time
oh no wait
I'm four years behind
no I planned
four
forty
oh okay
and also four since the remake
so
how many years
was Nelson Mandela
held in prison
27
Jesus
I was not expecting that.
Three of my boys locked up in jail still.
Release the Croson 6.
Which profession is associated with Savile Row?
Radio broadcasting.
Slash paedophilia.
Paedophilia.
The BBC is tailoring.
Why is that?
Because Savile Row is where you go.
Where's Savile Row?
In London somewhere.
I've literally just given you the address
Savile Row
where's that
I'm not Google Maps bro
yeah
but my reason
if people think
oh you're from London
how do you not know that
London is so vast
I don't go to North
I go to Central London
but beyond there
it's all Tottenham,
in my opinion.
How should he know about Southampton?
Cut him some slack.
So you got... Keep talking.
Oh, is that all of them?
Oh, is there more questions?
I've got questions for him.
Oh, okay.
I wrote them down, but he didn't use them.
Who is Taylor Durden?
Brad Pitt.
In the fake club?
Yeah. And who would be your Taylor Durden? If anybody could be your Taylor Durden. Taylor Darden Brad Pitt in the fake love yeah
and who would be
your Taylor Darden
if anybody could be
your Taylor Darden
I can be your
Taylor Darden
punch away
I don't know
I'd like to think
I'd go with like
I don't know
I'd probably go with
like who would be like my person
to chill with all the time
I've got
I'm going to tell you like
Daniel thinks you're here alone
that's what's wonderful about this podcast
you're coming in with some confusing
he doesn't know that I'm here
despite all the fact that this podcast is called Slots and Humphries on the Road
I thought that was it so Out of a possible 24 points
You got
But Freedem appending
So if you bang any of them
You're on 12 so that is half
That's 50% not 60%
So it's out of 24
So I think the rule should be
We will keep bringing you on this podcast and do this quiz
And every time you're on the podcast we will do this quiz
until you get 60% in one of the quizzes
and then we'll finally admit that you're not on time
just get on as a regular guest
fuck man, you had my surname into that title
for a long time
oh, right
should we pause there and get on to Muggle Corner
and we have
banked the second third of the podcast
that also exists.
Nice. Now let's get on to
Muggle Corner. Now, Steel,
we'll let you go first since you are
guest. Okay, cool. Muggles, Kingsman...
No, wait, that's from Sean Walsh's podcast.
Sorry. Wait, Sean Walsh
does Muggle Corner?
No, no, he was asking me for films I didn't like.
And what was your answer?
Kingsman
the Golden Circle
quite late
I feel a bit bad
coming on and saying that
now actually
I retract that
why don't you talk like you
walk like you
muggles do
CrossFit
now what is CrossFit
because I know
people make fun of it
but I don't think
I actually know what it is
man
it's so sort of, it's so...
It's sort of like...
Like, it's so...
You walk into, like, this big warehouse room
and there's, like, weights in one corner.
There's a couple of guys rolling around in them kettlebells.
So it's like circuit training.
Yeah.
It's pretty intense circuit training.
It's actually a really good workout, but I think...
It looks tough, but it's the way people bang on about it
it's a social media exercise
isn't it
a little bit yeah
but like also
you see when people
are doing them training
for things
like you get guys
who go like
oh yeah I'm doing this training
we're like we're going to
have to crawl through mud
on the weekend
and it's like
you're not in the army
that's not
what are you doing
you don't need to train that
just go to the gym
just go to the gym bro
well do you know
when I was training in Perth
the MMA gym
also had CrossFit
on their premises
and they kind of
kept themselves
separate
like CrossFit
one side of the gym
and the MMA boys
were kicking the pads
on the other
but they had
like an interclub thing
where they'd done
things like tug of war
and shit like that
and the MMA lads
beat the CrossFit people
at tug of war
but that's their thing
that's their feel
imagine
the CrossFit boys and girls got into but that's their that's their thing that's their feel imagine the
CrossFit boys
and girls
got into the
octagon with
MMA
they'd get
kicked the fuck
so they should
totally hold their
world
yeah so it's like
it's not even the
best of it
yeah yeah
I don't get
people
I don't know
I'm sure there's
people out there
who will be able
to explain to me
as we've worked
I don't get why
you'd ever do
something like CrossFit it costs a lot of money as well there's one near there who will be able to explain to me as we've worked out. I don't get why you'd ever do something like CrossFit.
It costs a lot of money as well.
There's one day a minute, it's 120 a month.
That's not cheap.
I'd actually like to do it.
I think it's a good workout.
It just seems to be like...
You don't want to be in the company of muggles.
Like you've just got to...
Even though you wouldn't necessarily be in a muggle if you're yourself for doing it,
you will fit.
You're invested. I'd come on. You'd massively come on. If you're in that environment, you wouldn't necessarily be a muggle for yourself for doing it you will fit your your invest come on you you'd massively come on if you're in that environment you're
going to be like because it is with the german things like you know martial arts and stuff when
you make bit games you take pictures of it and sure you put it up but you'd fall into that thing
like you'd buy a longboard or something yeah just come on to them dudes yeah i think the way it is
i don't think crossfit is muggly but i think there's a lot
of muggles do crossfit yeah yeah it's muggles yeah so that's yeah that well yeah that's a
perfect way of putting it there's probably people that do crossfit now listen to this going oh thank
god fucking i am surrounded by muggles yeah yeah but it is but because you were it yeah so even if
you do if you are an innocent person doing crossFit You still have to go stand in the corner
I bet you own a CrossFit tracksuit of your gym as well
Me?
No not you
When I say you're a speaker
Tracksuit?
Do you do it in a tracksuit?
I don't know
You think they'll have merch?
I reckon they're people that take running seriously
And again
You're allowed to
But like
It's the full
Don't let us get into that again
I know
Good Gareth
No no no
But it's the other thing
Like when you go
It's like someone who turns up
To like five a side
In like a full strip
And like full
You're like
Oh pipe down
Full kit one
Got a five a side
You mean just
Funsies five a side
Not like
Yeah yeah yeah
Team five a side Is important Because it's a strip But it's so like kit one got a five or six you mean just funsies five or say not like yeah yeah yeah yeah team
five or seven is important because that's a strip but it's so like um it's such a like i've seen it
as a hipster workout because it's in like a they're all in like a warehouse or kind of basement
kind of thing like big room yeah yeah so you know what i'm gonna say avocado doesn't taste like much
i like avocado i don't know i like it doesn't taste like much. I like avocado.
I don't know.
I like it.
It doesn't taste like much.
It's like the water of vegetables.
Don't go after avocado.
I'm not.
I'm just saying it.
Look, it's the same thing.
Sometimes you've got to stand out.
You've got to stand against the grain.
And I'm not saying I don't like avocados.
I'll eat them. No, you're just eating them at the wrong time.
You've got to give it a squeeze and make sure it's ready.
No, because everything you put added to an avocado, it's like, oh, I love avocado.
Are they guacamole?
Aye, but that's the lime and that's all the other stuff. We went and got a burrito two days ago. I love avocado is it guacamole aye but that's the lime
and that's all the other stuff
we went and got a burrito
two days ago
I didn't put any guacamole
on it did I
no because it's a pound fifty
like
take a cut
I didn't get it
because I was like
I don't want
flavourless mash
on my thing
don't
come on
leave the avocado alone man
what's it taste like
avocado
no
describe it it's got good fats in it but bro it's avocado Don't, come on, leave the avocado alone, man. What's it taste like? Avocado. No.
Describe it.
It's got good fats in it, bro.
It's avocado-y, isn't it?
Yeah, right.
That was a very CrossFit thing to say.
Skookoo.
Yeah, that's what it's getting at with avocado muggles.
It's Instagram muggles.
I'm not saying avocado on Instagram is muggly,
but there are muggles that... To be fair, at this point,
the amount of people in...
I think there's something we've never discussed
at Muggle Corner, if enough Muggles do
something, is it
the thing itself must be Muggly
That's good
I'm a Muggle for a point, I would happily
I would happily, I don't know how you'd feel about this
I would happily have someone sit here and be like to me
martial arts, that's Muggle
If you go and train martial arts like I train Muay Thai
you're a bit of a
muggle what are you
ever going to do it's
like yeah I am being a
muggle with it do you
know what I mean I
feel I admit I am but
it's a nice bit of
mugglery but I feel
like martial arts
is very harmless
mugglery if you
enjoyed an avocado
and go to CrossFit
yeah yeah but that's
the thing about
muggles is they are
harmless yeah it's
there it's the owning
of like make an
avocado part of your
being yeah yeah yeah part of your being. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's a very important part of your being.
Yeah, yeah.
If you look at how our projection is about those things.
That's exactly what I mean.
The vegan problem.
It becomes a replacement for a personality.
Yes.
You become the CrossFit guy.
Like, yeah, and you're always banging on.
That's what I really mean.
It's people constantly bang on about CrossFit.
Went to CrossFit,
and we're just like,
bro, you just lifted some weights.
All right, but you moved it over there,
and then you skipped for a bit.
I do, I would probably get back into it
Because I don't think it's a quick way to get healthy
Did you do it?
No, no, no
But when I get back to the gym properly
It's a good way of shedding everything
It's a good way of building muscle at the same time
As leaning down
I don't even know what they're doing now
I just walked past it one time
Muggles
I wrote it down on your phone
I think we'll absolutely allow it to be put in
Did you drink Virgin's blood in there?
I mean, each other's blood.
Now, this is my Muggle suggestion here.
I'm going in the corner just because of the second wave of Mugglery,
which is complaining about this Muggle-y thing.
Muggles give any form of shit about the royal wedding.
And this comes up because we were at Kai's house the other week
we're at Kai's mum's house
the other week and it was on
the news the royal wedding had just been announced
and they were interviewing people about the royal
wedding and they found people
who cared like these people were like oh I'm
so excited I think it's going to be beautiful
it's going to be great he's a good boy and I just
know Diana's going to be looking down
and she's excited, I'm like,
you fucking muggle.
Looking up.
I think,
I think that kind of muggery is people who take like a worldwide event and
just make it about themselves a little bit.
Like,
I think this will be,
and it's just like,
but no,
no,
because you know what?
I agree it's muggery.
It's like,
it's like the,
um,
it's like Eurovision,
right?
Eurovision itself is muggery, but I've evenvision, right? Eurovision itself is muggly,
but I've even been dragged along to some Eurovision parties,
and it's just people go along there to take the piss out of the thing.
My family had a last royal wedding.
All my family got together because we were like,
should we just get shit-faced?
Ironically, it's still muggly.
It's still muggly, but you get it right.
But that's the second wave, which is still muggly.
But my point is, how fucking muggly is the original
people actually get around do you actually care what's just going to be people absolutely fucking
do oh they can't stop talking about it if that's going in which i agree it should all the people
who like a few people i'll know will be going like why are we having another royal right and
just keep yelling and yelling and then they'll bring up the price of this. Anyone who gives any form of shit.
Right, yeah, good.
Because those people, I'm like,
well, yeah, man, it's happening
and your Facebook post ain't going to change it.
Yeah, yeah.
Sign a petition, do something.
But even then, we're not going to get rid of the monarchy.
Yeah, just seethe quietly.
Or do it on a podcast like we do.
Or be excited about it quietly.

yeah
look I'm barely excited about your wedding
like I can't give a shit what Natalie's gonna fucking wear

have the time of
fucking life
it's such a good
crew
do I give a fuck
what Natalie's
waiting for do i give a fuck what natalie's waiting
do i get all me she can she can walk down and track it i'm not going to give a fucking i'm
munted so like if you care about the dress of a wedding you're not even attending what level of
what's just happened now is natalie will be listening to this bit of the podcast
Just pause it
And she's going to go have an argument
She had a fucking chance for me to give a shit
About her wedding dress
When we were in Glastonbury
Because she was there with me, Ricketts and Kai
We're all absolutely hammered And Natalie She comes up to me, Ricketts, and Kai, right? We're all absolutely hammered.
And Natalie, she comes up to me and she goes,
Danny, I think I've chosen my wedding dress, right?
Now, I'm like, I love weddings.
I'm not going to lie.
I'm one of those muggers.
This is deep water, but I'm going in.
No, but I'm like, fuck it.
I'm a good friend.
You're excited about this thing.
I want to be excited about this thing with you.
Like, it's great.
So she showed me.
And I'm like oh that's
that's great
the way the back is
all this stuff
I know my fashion a bit
I know what to say
I'm like it's a really nice dress
the second
I can't even remember
what girl it was
Georgie Donnelly
Georgie Donnelly
turned up
Natalie hadn't even said hello
just midway through
me giving her all this
she went
oh Georgie
and just I was out
of the conversation
right
reverse
reverse sexism exists my favourite bit of that was oh, Georgie! And just, I was out of the conversation. Right? Reverse,
reverse sexism exists.
My favourite bit of that was,
I know about fashion a little bit.
Oh, a little bit.
Like,
I don't wear the stuff myself,
but like,
I can appreciate,
like,
if something looks good,
I'll be like,
oh, that's fine.
Is that because you're planning
on opening sweatshops?
Do you know what happened as well?
Five minutes after that,
so she showed Georgie Donnelly
coming back down
exactly where she sat, right?
She was chatting to me for a bit
and then you hadn't moved
or she hadn't spoken to you
since the wedding dress mugging.
Oh.
And she just turned to me
and went, where's Donnie?
I think he's where he was
when you mugged him off.
Yeah, so...
He's still there.
He's not recovered.
He's still in shock.
He's still gobsmacked.
All right, so so Natalie if you
yeah
I know you were upset earlier
when I said I didn't give a shit
about your wedding
but that's exactly why
you had your chance
I'm still hurt
but these
that's my point though
like
I'm so excited about the wedding
but that is a wedding
I'm attending
but even there's parts
of that wedding
that
I've been at weddings
where I don't give a fuck
about any part of it
right
I'm just like
I'm just here
because I like the person
but I don't like the person you're marrying but it's not in my position if I. I'm just like, I'm just here because I like the person, but I don't like the person
you're marrying, but it's not in my position for what I can say.
But blah, blah, blah, I'm just here for the drink.
There are people...
He shoved Matt in the corner.
He shared
Tyrone's hair.
Sorry, I thought
this was a therapy.
I'm just saying that this is the perfect time
as any to practice my best man speech.
Test the waters.
He's going to
come on and
do the same thing.
Forever hold your
peace,
grub's crotch.
I was about to
bring up something
there,
but we have to
save it for
Sunday's podcast,
Monday's podcast.
But yeah,
I'm assuming this
is straight in.
There surely
could not be much
debate.
And I totally agree with you. The people that are angry about it, I get your anger. I'm in this is straight and there surely cannot be much debate and I totally agree with you the people that are angry
about it
I get your anger
I'm in the corner
for the anger
because I've just
I'm on the second wave
of mugglery here
but
yeah I agree
so
mine was just
go into handshakes
as a rule
and like see what's
muggly within handshakes
but the one I want to
put forward
is the people that
hold onto your hand
for far too long
in a handshake.
They grip your hand
and then start talking and then don't let go
of your hand.
Me and Eli are going to shake hands.
I'll say, now you tell me when it's too long.
Right, okay. So, do it like a
proper greeting. So, hello. Right, shaking hands.
Right, you've done a little wobble.
It's already getting awkward, right? Some people go on
longer than this. You just kissed your hand yeah you felt the need you felt the need to do something
you felt the awkwardness you had to do something to get i reckon one of the good ways to get some
of the strokes is this the stroke yeah it's just probably strong do you ever have it where you
no i'm not from croydon where you go into a handshake with someone and they go to do um a
fist bump and you accidentally like grab the oh yeah and then have you ever had
it as well where you go to do a handshake with someone and they immediately think you know all
that and they're like tickety tickety stuff you can't call them no no no no no no hold on
last time the podcast tweets come in accusing me of being dumb I don't need him
coming in accusing me
of being racist
no you mean like
all the like
switching the hand position
doing a little click
at the end of it
the next time I'm on this podcast
I don't want it to start with
I really really
regret what I said
on the last
no
just yeah
when they do like
they'll do a
yeah they'll bring it in
they'll bring it in
you've got a fist bumper
you've got to do
the little airplane
you do the squid
what
the squid
oh the squid
they're like exploding
is that you call that a squid
no no no squid
boom boom
what are you doing man
what are you doing
leave your fist there
I'm doing the squid
right
that's not
that is
I couldn't get my head around that
and I mean
that was good for the podcast listeners
so exactly what went on
so
well what were they click and handshake.
I don't mind them.
I don't even mind them.
As long as you,
if you're going to bring me into one of those, right,
you've got to lead the dance, right?
You know I know handshake,
and you know I know Facebook.
Turn it into a hug if you want.
Like, yeah, turn it into a hug maybe.
But if you're going to,
you've got to lead the charge.
Grab me by the waist,
treat me like a woman.
I'll lead you back.
I like the one where you overshoot it and grab each. Grab me by the waist, treat me like a woman. I'll lead you back. I like the one where you're overshooting,
grab each other's wrists,
you feel like a Viking for a second.
And then you look up
and you just say,
it's Colin from Accounting.
I'm not a Viking.
I've never,
what, you mean the...
Like an overshoot, like, yeah.
Aye.
Peace be with you, brother.
Aye.
But the,
because nobody likes a soft handshake as well.
Nobody likes the over the top handshakes
which is like
saying dominance
but what I hate the most
is people that have
figured out over the top
means dominance
so they apply a level
of dominance
where it's an underhand
where they're like
you can be dominant
in this handshake
and it's like
an underhand handshake
you're just like
oh stop thinking
it's free
turn the hand sideways
stop house of cards
saying a handshake
how much do you think
about handshakes
no no
it's disgusting
is that
yeah that's what people do
I've never had anyone
you've seen someone
come over the top before
you're just like
whether you mean that or not
over the top is just
someone that thinks
of alpha
it's dominance
it's basic psychology
I'm not looking deep into it
that's why I'm not
stuck to keeping up with it
but sometimes
people come under because they know about that and have thought it through.
Fuck, so that's like a...
Nobody comes under naturally.
Yeah.
That's nobody's natural disposition.
So it's...
That's them just going, I'm going to let him come over.
Yeah.
Okay, I never really realised that was that.
It's like, you know when you hold hands with a girl or a boy.
I don't know about that.
Yeah, but if you hold hands hands so if you now hold hands
see because my hand's forward
that's normally
the sort of dominant one there
my right hand's
over your left one
so it's the leading one
so I'm the one
that's able to punch
like that's
I always do find it
and this is a weird bit
of like sexism
I know that's in me
right but it's so minor
but like see if I'm with a girl
and she does it over my hand
I go
eh no
it's such a dumb
it's such a dumb visceral reaction but if a girl grabs I don't mean she grabs my hand I go eh nah it's such a dumb it's such a dumb
visceral reaction
but if a girl grabs
my hand
I don't mean she grabs
my hand from behind
right
and I'm joking
I would say
as it should be
but I don't know
why I think that
I don't know why
that's such a horrible
natural instinct in me
I've got an ingrained
one too
that if a girl says
they can beat me
in a computer game
I'll instantly just be like
there's not a chance
this dumb bit of sexism
you'd have to totally prove this
and then I'd have to begrudgingly go,
yes, you are.
I'm not going to just,
like, you know,
if any of you guys tell me
about computer games,
I'm like, fuck,
there's a chance that they are.
But any girl that I've ever met,
if any of them said
they were better than me,
I'd need proof.
I wouldn't even for a second
entertain it.
It's such a dumb,
yeah, yeah,
it's, yeah,
because whenever you grew up
I grew up playing
computer games
with all my
guy friends
and that's probably
because we were young
and we did invite
the girls around to play
I have played
computer games
with girls before
that are into
computer games
I've always been
remarkably better
than them
even the ones
that I gave them
I've been
I've been
I'm yet too
I've been absolutely
fucking gupped
through the floor
and it's very
do you remember that time we actually did this
in fucking Lithuania two years ago
we were in a bar in Vilnius
and there was a foosball
table right and again this is
such a perfect medicine to our
inbuilt fucking stupid dumb
like sexism
two girls were like
we'll play at
foosball and they
were like oh so
we'll like we'll do
one of us one year
and they're like no
us VU and we're
like all right okay
Elliot I cannot tell
you how much we
no goals from us
I'm talking 10-0
and these games
they were key
PRPs right they're
pinging overhead
flicks and me and
him just laughing
on everyone
rightfully laughing
at us right because they could
see the bravado
in us
we were like
here we go
all the destruction
it was the funniest
thing to watch
they were even
letting us do
spinzies
yeah they were
just letting us
be like
here's the ball
run it
one of them
somehow managed
to get the little
man off the thing
to run around
skip past the player
one of them scored
with a diving header
he's saying
for man you
yeah that's yeah something on you yeah
that's yeah
that is a yeah
that's probably
that was dumb
it was like
we were just like
absolute dumb
inherent
I need to deal
with this sexism
that exists in my head
is there anything
better than that
moment where you
like
or must be better
to watch
than like a guy
being all bravado-y
just being absolutely
destroyed at something
like I had it once
in that arcade
we sometimes go in
in London
there was a girl
and I saw her
and I was like
do you want a game
of air hockey
and she absolutely
destroyed me
in front of my mates
like
it shouldn't even be
noteworthy
it shouldn't be
noteworthy
it absolutely
shouldn't be noteworthy
the reason it's noteworthy
is because I went in there
like after she got
the first two
I was like oh I'll play got the first two I was like
oh I'll play properly now
and then she
I was like
I'm playing properly
and I can't win
and you can see me
go from like bravado
to sort of like
alright let's try
concentrate
to panic
that's why it's really funny
I think that's something
we should all agree
to try and fix
about ourselves
yeah totally
what my air hockey skills
yeah we gotta got to make sure
that we're better
than all the girls
that's the only lesson
we learn from this
like the only lesson
we learn from this
is we've got to be
better than girls
yeah like
when we were
going to a gig the other day
and my dad
was getting Call of Duty
and we knew
he was going to be up
playing on it
and we were like
oh I can't wait
to play Call of Duty
with my dad
when I get in
like why is it so inconceivable that there could have been a reality we're like oh I can't wait to play Call of Duty with my dad when I get in like why is it so inconceivable
that Ash could have
there could have been a reality
where I'm going
I can't wait to get in
and play Call of Duty
with my mum and dad
but that would seem so weird to me
for my mum to play in it
but why?
like why?
I think that's more
a generational thing
yeah I think that's generational
even now
like I wasn't like
oh I can't wait to get home
and play Call of Duty with Natalie
like she's not going to do it
but I think it's also down to
it's what we discussed and I know that's just them as Natalie like she's not going to do it but I think it's also down to what we discussed
I know that's just them
as an individual
yeah that's them as an individual
but I also do think
it's the fact that like
a lot of the games are
like especially the generation
we grew up
boys just naturally went to it
because it was more sort of like
that was
do you think this is
I think it will
but I think there was
obviously we all know
there's like the way
you pitch toys to children
like Barbies are for girls and Kens are for boys there was a point we could not
i can see what you're about to say about and they pitch video games but i think games like okay not
to say there aren't girls that play Call of Duty but games like
Call of Duty are
definitely aimed
towards like
majority guys but
there's more
strategy there's
games like League
of Legends and
stuff and computer
games that are no
load which are way
harder games
but I think that's
the generation that's
coming through because
now because we're
now becoming more
aware of like all
the different types
of sexism and I
think you've got the
generation of girls
who are obviously
sick of being told
this is for girls
this is for boys I reckon the next generation i will not be surprised even that i'm
not surprised genuinely the amount of times i've had my ass kicked computer games but i think that
is just this generation i hope i see that level out i'd love to do you reckon that's like our
generation's thing of like or maybe not mine but the generational thing of like oh women can't
drive when they actually are called safer drivers safer drivers and like we've just yeah yeah we've just naturally gone like oh they can't play video
games and then it's just gonna turn out they're better yeah yeah yeah i absolutely given more
chance to play it more like more push towards it yeah and also yeah just the opportunity to be
allowed to play these things like to to have to step into something that was obviously male
dominated at the start to step into that it's
got to be like that's got to take proper fucking spunk isn't there something about like i know
like fifa and that that this is the worst thing by the way three white men talking about feminism
but doesn't like the whole thing of fifa like when me and you play fifa it is such a like
guy the guy locking horn macho just chatting shit like stupidity like i can understand
yeah toxic masculinity i can
understand when like girls do something like that they can go fifa and stuff so shoot because it's
just so aggressive i reckon that's another bit of i reckon that's another bit of shitty deep
sexism is i reckon because i've not i've not played a girl i'll probably have to go on fifa
but i don't have my mic in for fifa and no one has their mic in for fifa online but i reckon
like when I do
I love trash talking
I reckon I might not
I'd like to think
I would trash talk a girl
but part of me is like
I don't know if
I might stutter
or I might stutter
like with the trash talking
she's there going
I said that to your mum
you know when you were saying
you get pushed towards
different things as a kid
right like
girls get pushed
towards skipping
and as a boy
I was never encouraged
to skip
and then you start going
to boxing gyms
and fighting gyms
and you have to skip
immediately
like where's my
fucking base
skipping
why did I get
scared away from that
why do women
not have better footwork
that was one thing
that annoyed me
when I took up boxing
or something
I was like
all those years
in the playground
I could have just
bypassed
if I'd just done
the skipping
you could have been
working on your footwork
in a car
and hanging out with chicks
you wasted your childhood
the first two months
of any sort of
striking based thing
is skipping
and it's just you
not being able
to skip properly
I really wish
I was a better dancer
when I'm in clubs
I don't dance
because I can't dance
because when I was young
I was like
I'm not going to learn
to dance
dancing's for girls
I genuinely regret that
I fucking hate that I wish I'm not going to learn how to dance because dancing is for girls I genuinely regret that I fucking hate that
I wish I could fucking dance
because I can Scottish
country dance
because they forced us to Scottish country dance
all the way from primary school and high school
I don't know what he's getting for Christmas
no right it's going to come up at your wedding and I'm going to
know all the dances and I'm really glad because I know
that form of dancing I feel comfortable but yeah
the fact when I was a kid I was like no I'm'm not going to dance dances for girls and now i can't
i'm a grown man who is uncomfortable on a fucking dance floor because seven-year-old me was a sexist
talk about the fucking butterfly effect they're for girls too i did i did a b-tech in performing
arts which again is why i'm really smart and we had to learn how to do South
African gumboots dancing I remember learning
at the time in like year 9 and thinking
this is never ever ever
ever ever ever ever going to
help me in life teach me how to
I went into this thing going
this will teach me how to dance I learnt
nothing to do with dancing
no soldier boy not the Macarena
you're opening and closing dance at your wedding nothing to do with dancing. No soldier boy, not the Macarena.
You're opening and closing dance
at your wedding.
I've walked around
Natalie several times
practising the YMCA.
I would love your first dance
to be soldier boy.
Dancing is prohibited
at our wedding.
No, yeah.
No dancing.
What?
It's a no dancing wedding.
What do you mean?
It's what I'd be for. It's a Muslim wedding.. What do you mean? It's Ibiza.
It's a Muslim wedding.
Oh.
They like to dance.
You're allowed to dance, you dickhead.
Oh, right.
You're genuinely concerned.
I was thinking, like,
there's nothing...
At least mum's going to be dancing.
Not you, though.
Oh, she's got standards.
Right, so,
shall we go back through those ones?
So my one was,
muggles give any type of shit
about the royal engagement.
Yeah.
Crossfit.
Crossfit.
And various types of handshakes that you can CrossFit CrossFit and various types of handshakes
various types of handshakes
aye
then also
yeah I think we should all
cut the corner for it
and also
any fucking stupid ingrains
if you
if you
if you cut yourself a grain
with any of our damn sexism there
and you pick out
let's all be fair
and go in the corner
I do that
aye
aye
we'll admit all the things
we said were muggles
we'll go stand in the corner
for several minutes
why people die
because they need to be bred out
Aye
Aye
You need that mental behaviour
Bred out
So we need to
We need to get old
Aye
And to all the women
We'll try better
We're sorry
Damn right
And I'm going to nail air hockey
Aye
Aye
Right
Let's get rid
Let's get rid of all our toxic masculinity
By your dad jokes
Okay I've only got eight

It's all right, we'll move on.
Elliot, your dad lost his limbo championship belt because he kept getting a boner.
Kai, your dad left your mum for a girl he met on RuneScape.
Elliot, your dad kicked off with a woman for feeding a child in Starbucks.
She was feeding a child with a bottle, but he goes in there for the tits.
Elliot.
Kai, your dad's phone facial recognition only recognises him if he's crying.

into his computer
and then uploaded to
twitter
it's his favourite egg
Kai your dad decided he wants to become
a road man and keeps sending me texts saying
I should holler at him because he's got the dank.
It's a very London
your dad joke.
Your dad checks himself out in the
mirror and probably looks himself down just so
he doesn't wreck himself.
Elliot, your dad hates eggs.
your dad hates eggs so we're gonna need a second
Danny
yeah
your dad's twitter bio reads
as heard about
on Sloss and Humphreys
on the road
DM for direct bookings
your dad was speechless
when he was asked to describe himself in one word.
He should have just said speechless.
Kai, your dad kites with his teeth.
Kai, whenever your dad meets a black person, he attempts to fist bump them and say wah-wah.
When girls tell your dad they just want to be friends He says great and still tries to kiss them
Because that's what he does with his friends
Kai
Your dad is available in all good toy stores
Danny your dad thinks he's funny
Because he wears his this is what a feminist looks like
T-shirt to a strip club
Elliot your dad
Sleuths officers with both hands at once
Elliot your dad wears a cone officers with both hands at once.
Elliot, your dad wears a cone
to stop him licking
other people's stitches.
Kai, your dad
chose...
What?
Oh, I can't read.
I'll do this one.
Kai,
what's easier to read?
Your dad built
a man cave
but a bear started
hibernating in it.
Have you not done
that one already?
No. I've definitely heard that. Someone else might have in it. Have you not done that one already? No.
I've definitely heard of that.
Someone else might have done it.
No, it's something I threw in a WhatsApp group.
Your dad
relaxes by putting his
feet in one
foot spa, his hands in another foot spa
and then watching TV on all fours.
Elliot, your dad's got a snaggle tooth on his arse.
What's a snaggle tooth?
It's one of those teeth that stick out your cums. Oh.
Danny,
your dad chose chat shit,
get banged as his safe word, and that's why
he's now got crutches.
Your dad's just spreading his tea.
Kyle,
your dad's got a boobie like a woodpecker.
Drills into trees looking for grubs
The only thing your dad
Fails his teeth down to a point to try and make him look medicine
