Where have you been since 9-11?
Alright, I'm sat in a basement in Leeds with Dave Longley.
This is how it ends for most people.
Not for me.
You're going to get out of this basement.
I think I'll get out. I think I'll be alright.
Why is Sloss not here? The coward.
He wouldn't open for us on some of my shows.
I asked him, you know, you've got got a little bit of I've got food in it
Sorry
Yeah I asked him
Because he's done his last gig
Ever
For the foreseeable future
Oh
He finished his two
I've done a couple of
Encore shows
Yeah
And then
He's just had a second child
He's just moved house
And he kind of
Wants to take stock
He'd done
The Have a word roast
yeah which i don't think's out yet but that was the last thing in his diary was that
and um i messaged him just about the local gigs if he wanted to do um fife's his hometown
kirkoddy sorry in fife so that's if you want to do that edinburgh where he lives and he was like
i'm not gonna have any material ready and i'm not doing old rope so he's just tapped it for a bit so we can talk about him
more honestly now he's not doing it anymore was he ever funny did you not enjoy him no never no
he's gonna come on his podcast never floated my boat i always find him a bit every time i
interacted with him personally i always found him a bit standoffish i always thought he was a bit up his own arse and i was like yeah you fucker i'll get you don't
worry you're not like any of his bits like what what would you say is your favorite favorite show
of his of his uh well the one that helped me get to sleep the quickest was uh jigsaw
uh did you stay well Lynn after that just about

no
oh right yeah
if she watched it
you'd be fucked
mortgages
it's usually the person
that wants to be out

yeah
no I think
I think
it's a sad
if he doesn't do it again
that's fucked
no he's got to start again
he was talking
we just did a podcast together.
He's still doing the odd one of these as a guest.
For him.
Sloss and Humphreys.
Keeping his toe in.
It's the fucking first name on it and he's only barely doing it.
Yeah, that's why we didn't call it Muggins and Cream
because he wanted it to be the first name on it.
Right, okay.
He's got an ego.
I don't know if you know.
Yeah.
I don't know him very well.
You know?
No, I've slept with him, but...
Aye. But they didn't learn his
first name i tell you one thing his fans are thick oh you're so funny so like i think everybody
that's listening to this and watching this is on like they're on here they know what you're doing
to this will know because it's so obvious when people haven't listened. Right, so just for the record, we'll put this on wax.
You're not a gynecologist.
I am not and never have been an obstetrician.
Obstetrician.
Yeah.
You don't believe in God.
Not a Christian.
If anything, I am what's known as an anti-theist.
Well, go on.
I don't want there to be a God.
So an atheist doesn't believe in God. I don't want there to be a God. You're like rooting against it. I don't want it to be a God So an atheist doesn't believe in God
I don't want there to be a God
You're like rooting against it
I don't want it to be a real thing
It's ridiculous, it's stupid
What is your religion
You don't want there to be a God
But do you think there's something
That's beyond us
No
Do you think we've got the understanding of everything
I don't think we have the understanding of everything.
We're just in this chaos.
We're just as important as ants.
Yeah.
We're important to ourselves, but we're not important in a universal context.
So I'm not an obstetrician.
Don't believe in God.
Not a Christian.
Never helped a woman give birth.
Do you mean swearing?
Love swearing. You love swearing you mean swearing? Love swearing.
You love swearing.
You're quite fond of swearing.
Yeah.
So now I'm going to ask everybody to just pause the podcast for a second
and go on any, like any?
You've done all of them, haven't you?
I miss a few because it gets a bit tedious.
Some of the people who know it's a joke will say,
oh, this is him just doing a joke.
Yeah.
Ignore him.
And you're like, don't ruin it but they're also
they're also nodding on the joke like these guys are they haven't they haven't heard that it's
happening because they know not even to like your comment yeah so it's the people who figured you
out that are saying that not the people that have killed you yeah so um go and have a look on any
um clip where me and daniel are chatting on the podcast and we just put out like a 90 second clip or whatever
and watch Dave Longley just complain about the swearing,
about like what behaviour, what attitudes,
and then just back and forth.
Like it fucking entertains me.
The last one you did was like 68 comments back and forth.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You spend your day on it.
Yeah.
It does get a bit, it gets so addictive though.
There was a Scottish guy on the last one.
Oh, I saw that.
Yeah.
Yeah, you were slagging off his country.
Slagging off his country.
Oh, have a good day.
Have a good day.
Should I read some?
If you want, there's no point.
No, they can go and have a look.
But what I've found is that anything that's written down
people will believe it 90 of the time yeah so i just so there's literally
there was i got rid of them but there was clips of me doing stand-up
dubbing over roy chubby brown there's that one as well yeah yeah but also like i don't follow many people i follow you and i follow daniel
you both follow me back like how fucking thick do you have to be yeah it's amazing yeah so people
haven't like they just haven't done a shallow dive they've looked on the bio which i've now
changed but it used to say obstetrician christian um and they've looked at it and gone oh he's
obviously an obstetrician and then yes the stand- looked at it and gone, oh, he's obviously an obstetrician.
And then your stand-up clip,
that was the first one to feign,
was you muted your own audio
and put Roy Chubby Brown's audio over the top of yours.
Yeah, yeah.
But also, you might have to be a certain...
Who we met.
Oh, fuck yeah!
We queued for a photo.
I didn't get a photo with him yet,
so I took it. Oh, yeah. That was Sheffield. Because I didn't get a photo with him. I took it.
Oh, yeah.
That was Sheffield.
Because he didn't have good numbers either, did he?
He was in the big room.
He was in the big room.
We went in and the first joke we heard was A, racist,
and B, didn't make sense.
Yeah, it was about jumping up and down your mom or something.
It was something, yeah, but the punchline was packy or something like that. And it didn't make sense yeah it was about jumping up and down your mom or something it was something yeah but the punchline was packy or something like that and it didn't make any sense and i just
remember looking at you and we're like what and people are laughing because you just like said
the words that you're not allowed to say anymore it's so funny i got a phone call off me uh off
my friend who i just did his house in liverpool i don't know if you know Ricketts, but anyway, that's who I'm talking about.
So he was on about like,
he's a little bit fallen into that trap of like,
oh, you can't say anything anymore.
I had this argument last night.
Sorry, carry on.
Did you?
And he was on about like,
little Britain would never get away with
what they get away with now.
And it's just the same kind of tropes
that they go into at a certain age.
Like, oh, I age, right?
Guys, you can't do that. And I age yeah right guys will go you can't do
that and i'm like i mean you can't say anything like have you listened to dave longley's podcast
which is what i was arguing about yeah he was like no i was like i was like man just fucking
do yourself a favor i can't listen to dave longley's podcast and then get back to me saying
you can't say anything anymore yeah you're right you rang us just knew before i got here i just can
um are children too sexy
are you fucking serious yeah that was what i was arguing last night so i was telling my
my best mate who's helped me with the ai on the podcast so he's like helped me with the music and
the voices and stuff oh so i wanted to ask you about that.
The conversations that you have.
Obviously, I can tell some of them are like Gavin Webster, Barry Dodds, Eddie Who.
They're not.
That's the beauty of AI.
They're not.
Are you trolling me?
I'm not trolling you.
They're not.
No, no.
Yeah, this is...
That wasn't Gavin Webster talking about Raoul Mode.
It was not Gavin Webster.
You're right.
I'm being trolled live on the podcast.
You're not.
Okay, pause the podcast right now
and go and listen to Dave Longley's BBC Radio Derby.
What do you call it?
What's the name of it?
It's the Dave Longley Breakfast Show.
Dave Longley Breakfast Show.
The only person's voice you hear on there is mine
and an AI of other people's voices.
So you've put Eddie Who's voice?
I put on my Patreon today, only £1.44 a month.
Why that number?
Because I chose dollars.
Okay.
So it's a two dollar the two dollars
and um i put up a nine minute ai review of my podcast and you would not know that those people
don't exist except in an algorithm or a an ai simulation it's two people talking back and forth about my podcast.
The guy who helps me with the AI stuff is a fucking wizard.
I fell for AI then because I didn't,
I didn't know that was,
it's like,
I've even fallen for AI or fallen for Dave Longley's trolling live on the
podcast.
And both of them things are a sucker punch.
It's unbelievable.
I'm not joking.
It's unbelievable what can be
done with ai so the people who listen to that today were just like a they've nailed the nature
of the podcast and b it sounds like two people talking uh-huh and it's so he helps me with all
that so going back to the original topic he um he was saying oh i think you need to be careful
about what you're saying because some comedy clubs aren't going to book you.
I was like, that's not a real thing.
No.
It doesn't happen.
It doesn't exist.
When I was working during lockdown on a building site, this guy said to me, what do you do for a living?
I was like, oh, I do stand-up comedy.
He said, oh, you can't say anything anymore, can you?
And I went, well, you can.
No. He goes, you can't say anything anymore can you and i went well you can you can't and i said well the two biggest comedians in the world dave chapelle and ricky gervais have just done two specials back to back where they talk about trans people which
is supposed to be the thing that you're not allowed to talk about and they are the most
successful comedians in the world and he said yeah but you can't talk about anything now i said i've
literally just given you two examples yeah it, it's mad, isn't it?
I don't know where people are getting it from.
Is it because the mainstream media are being a little bit more careful
with how much stuff they put on?
And that's why TV's dying, is because they're just going,
oh, right, that's going to offend people.
We're not going to put that on TV.
And TV's just getting more and more sanitized.
But the fact is, you're not going to TV for your comedy anymore.
No.
You do a live at the Apollo spot now,
and you'll get four new Twitter followers or something but like you could pop on the internet
off a clip and people do hate you in the comments that are fucking a day doesn't go by in my life
where i'm not getting told i'm shit by somebody in the comments and uh so you will get the people
that like don't want you saying the things that you're saying yeah yeah yeah but it doesn't stop
you saying it you can absolutely say it i mean it's one of the
episodes that i did with um with tom bins so i just set my gay alarm off
that's something you went after before oh i want to put a pause in that right uh
i remember right 2013 i'm doing a show with Tom Binns, right?
And it was me, Tom Binns, Dan Willis, Dave Haddingham,
and Gordon Southern on a gig.
Like, that was the pool of comedians.
Okay.
Very diverse.
Best of British.
And it's on every day.
And we're all backstage at the same spot every single day at the festival.
And that was when it came out
about Rolf Harris yeah being a wrongin and there was a on about like it was basically like a thing
for who was gonna get the two little boys a joke and I was like oh was it boys and someone went no
it was girls and then I was I just as a joke bad joke bad joke at least he's not gay right bad joke in the moment with comics pretty funny
yeah right it died on tom bins and i was just like man joking and he just went and you still
got the audacity to call the joke tom bins tom bins called us out for my essentially homophobic
joke about a pedo that was just meant to be like making me make
it laugh.
Yeah.
Like the WhatsApp level chat that you would never do in public.
Yeah.
Right.
And he took offense at it and turned out to have a fucking hard drive full of photos.
You've got to play the role.
I fucking offended a nonce from your shit joke.
How did you offend a nonce? But you've got to play the role haven't you i fucking offended an ounce from your shit joke how did you offend an ounce but you've got to play the role haven't you you can't for one second
like you can't show any little weakness at all it's got to be straight in there i suppose it's
like um like getting accused of infidelity or something you know how people call it gaslighting
that oh he gaslit me no he didn't he just lied yeah he lied to try and get out of trouble which
is what everybody does i think there's the gaslight element not like star like projecting
it and accusing them of cheating well the gaslighting thing making them feel like they're
on the fucking back foot yeah you you convince the other person that they're mental or that
they're insane or something but so lying like so i don't want to name the name but a comedian was
accused of being abusive in a relationship.
And you read the accusations and you're like,
oh, he's just a shit boyfriend.
He just lied.
He's not trying to convince you you're insane.
But I gigged with Binns on New Year's Eve,
two weeks before he was sentenced or in court to be tried.
And he was always a bit of a dick.
He wasn't always very personable. He could not have been better company really he was so sweet and was this when legs people knew what was happening
nobody knew what was happening he was just fucking riding out these last couple of days i i found out
from uh jack carroll jack carroll said have you seen this I then asked Toby Foster
Who works at BBC Sheffield
To confirm it
And then it was just
It was everywhere
And then he started defending himself to Elliot Steele
Do you see that
Elliot like done a tweet about him
And he replied just going yeah because you were minging
Or something because Elliot was like oh I've worked with this man
When I was a child and then tom binns like in the in his
death throes have been put down for being a pedo told elliot he wasn't attractive enough for him
when he was a kid fucking hell this is not gay cut your losses thank god he's not gay jesus
he's he's at higher risk of aids if he's gay for a start. You know what I mean?
I gave blood not long ago.
They were going to be homophobic if I'd been getting rattled up the bum.
Yeah, 12 months is.
I had to lie my way through that format.
Yeah, and I've been to Africa.
Have you?
Yeah.
I done an India trip and they brought up a map before i give blood
and checked everywhere that i'd been just to make sure that it wasn't like in the red zone of you're
not allowed to give blood if you've been there age region is that what it is it's region the
liberty region of india i never went i never went to the age couple of india it turns out
there was a bit where like there was like I'd done one either side of the AIDS region
and asked how I travelled,
and because I flew through the AIDS region, I was safe.
Yeah, it doesn't transfer through the air.
Nah.
It's like that movie Outbreak.
Once it's airborne, you're fucked.
Have you seen Outbreak?
Airborne AIDS.
Airborne, that would be awful, wouldn't it?
I would wear a mask for that.
Would you?
Yeah, I think I would. Kiss mask for that. Would you? Yeah,
I think I would.
Kissing men in the nightclub
with your mask on.
Just pull your mask down a bit
so I can see your big,
thick handlebar moustache.
Just draw it.
Draw it on the,
you've got the handlebar moustache
at the top and bottom
and then just draw the little,
like,
put the marker on.
You can still see
when you're kissing them and then they'll catch you airborne aids what were we on about so i
stopped you to talk about uh tom binns being offended by my joke clutching clutching his
pills clutching his pills with an odd hard drive full of child porn what unreal unreal how is he out he's still out he's is he actually yeah yeah
he didn't go to prison because was it like he didn't make because once you have it you're
the manner in which he received it he's you're immediately found guilty of making it because
making it is like you know if you copy and paste it you've
made it when you say made it when you say made it it's not your guy you're the guy with a camera
yeah and you're making it and they're like no no he's not directing it he's not a screenwriter
yeah yeah he's not like in the room when it happened but you can't but when you say made it
yeah it's he copied it on from one file to another so my limited experience because I used to do child protection is
Just for research. Mm-hmm. I was never in any profession. I just wanted to know more about it
So, you know sort of your touch stuff. Just like how easy it is to get a CRB check. Yeah, that kind of thing
It's like why I used to teach women self-defense used to teach them all the wrong stuff
Bring up your left arm just block your left yeah left for left right for right this is the point where you accept
your fate um so yeah if you so you can view stuff online so that's not making it but as soon as you
download it the only reason you would download it to a hard drive is to distribute it that's the only reason so therefore you are making it so
yeah and he had seven category a images that's not the worst one that's like you know that's
like the ian watkins it's like the marvel cinematic universe compared to compared to like
right motherfucker yeah it's Infinity War.
And he's just...
And he's Tomahawk.
So he's been indulgently selling that
in his own time.
Well, he says he wasn't.
And then...
Oh, yeah, ADHD meds was his thing, wasn't it?
ADHD medication made him do it.
Which most comedians are on.
Which are actually hard to get.
Probably harder to get than child porn.
You fucking have to join a two-year waiting list and and shit like that it's quicker to be diagnosed a pedo
this is self-diagnosis people should have been there going how did you get the adhd meds
what were they they sound really productive 150 000 images in one night garifu war had a bit i don't know if he ended up getting it working as a bit but like when we've
done some uh writing he was talking about how like when people have child porn it's never just a
couple of images no it's never more than done it's always fucking terabytes of images yeah it's tens
of thousands doug stanhope had a great routine and live from across the street
is that
never any credits on child pornography.
Some people are just in it for the art.
Yeah.
Never rolling who shot it.
No ego on that side of Hollywood.
No, no.
I was at Stanhope.
For Stanhope in Newcastle
and I got a message off the barmaid apologising
that I had to be associated with that show.
Oh, God.
Was it that bad?
Just saying, I was, no, he fucking smashed.
Oh, right.
He absolutely fucking crushed it.
He was class.
Well, I was at his first gig.
Because obviously his fans are going to come to the show
and they're going to know what they're coming to see.
But the barmaid's just turning up for work you know she didn't buy a ticket take a punt yeah and see that thing she
just uh well that was the jerry sadowitz argument for a couple of fringes ago wasn't it because he
kept getting his cock out but it wasn't really his cock but the staff weren't aware of that
so they didn't want to be subjected to that which is fine i think that's fair if someone gets that
cock out you need to look pretty close and just to make sure it is the cock before you
complain.
Yeah.
Have a little taste of it.
Just go in there.
And it's definitely tasted rubber that.
Yeah.
I mean,
it may have just had a rubber on,
take the rubber off.
It's definitely a cock.
But,
uh,
I,
I did,
uh,
I was at,
I didn't perform.
I was at Stan Oates,
uh, debut UK, uh, perform. I was at Stan Oates debut UK tour.
Where was it?
Manchester Comedy Store.
Oh, nice.
It was fucking years and years and years ago.
And a comedian called Dave Bishop opened for him.
Do you remember Dave Bishop?
Nah, I know Des and Aidan Bishop.
So Dangerous Dave Bishop, a comedian in Manchester. Okay. Dangerous? okay dangerous dangerous he called himself dangerous dave bishop and uh dave got stanhope over and dave opened for him and he went
out and it was the last stand-up gig he said he ever did he quit after that and a mutual friend
bishop quit and a mutual friend asked why and he said because he got heckled so badly that night
that he didn't think he could do stand-up anymore.
So he was on stage and someone shouted,
hold the mic properly.
We can't hear you.
So then he was like, oh, is this, is this, is this,
hold the mic properly.
Is this?
And then someone said, someone shouted...
Yeah, I'd be like, oh, getting a bit of feedback.
A little bit of feedback
out the way.
And then someone shouted,
dance,
fucking dance,
you monkey,
dance, dance.
And then.
Okay, right.
Question.
Is he white?
No, yeah, he's white.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't know why that's relevant.
I just think maybe his lann that is heckler that would make
me stop comedy trying to provide at the Tim and for these white people any longer dance jump do
some sprinting and then and then someone shot get your ass out and he eventually got his ass out and
he said he felt really embarrassed about it.
So he was telling all this to this other comic.
And this other comic was telling me.
And I went, yeah, that was me.
Was it actually?
It was me who was heckling him.
You were in the audience at the time where you were stand-up?
A couple of years in.
So you did a couple of gigs?
Yeah.
So you were like a real life troll?
Ruined him.
You fucking end the dangerous
day of bishop's career by telling him dance yeah i said get your fucking ass out and he got his
ass out and i'm like uh you can't do stand-up this is atrocious i've never i've never heckled
any of you pals i don't think from stage but i did feed carl spain heckles for matt reed
but I did feed Carl Spade heckles for Matt Reed
at the back of Late and Live
because I'd been
gigging with Matt Reed loads so I just knew
he was set
and every time he was doing a bit
I was trying to think what the end of it is
and then just whispering to Carl Spade and then Carl Spade
would shout okay medieval prince
just whatever
punchline was coming I was like alright I think I know
this one I think I know this one then tell him the punchline one. Then tell them the punchline, need to shout it out.
And Matt Reid had no idea it was me and Carl Steyn.
Fucking no idea.
I had a really rough time.
And then at the end just went,
oh, well, Johnny Awesome's on next.
You can just, I don't know, sing along and dance
and have a nice time.
I left the stage.
I felt bad about it. i didn't feel good i thought i thought i felt like
at the back of the room at late live everybody quite drunk while creating a bit of a late live
experience but matt reed didn't enjoy the gig so i feel bad fucking my phone's going mental
what's happening is that yeah is it important oh it's my life get Get fucked. Nice chat name. Yeah. The last time I died was at Late in Life.
That was my last death.
That must have been a little while ago.
Was that pre-lockdown?
2016.
2016.
2016.
Went on after Jared Christmas, who'd got big laughs at two in the morning about Kit Kats.
Aye.
So I probably.
That's a skill.
Probably should have read the room, I thought it's late in life
Let's fucking do this
Went on
Do you think you were going to pump them full of something
I thought I was going to go dark and they'd love it
And this is what it's all about
You can do that when you're going on late in life for a fight
And they're just sleepy
That's exactly what happened
They did not like it one bit
And
The joke that got them really annoyed was um
about i said uh there was a a protest i was talking about the power of women and women
managed to bring this pedophile to justice and they got all the evidence and they took him to
court and on the day of the sentencing they were all outside court with signs saying justice at last and i said the most amazing thing about the protest was that they
took their kids there and that's women can't resist an opportunity to cock teas
and they just went no no no not for us there's that again we're drunk and sleepy and a bit feral but we're
also arty students yeah they're all in edinburgh where it's expensive to live
we're middle-class posh like posh arty people they were like they all had a air of history and money
yeah so then they started booing and screaming get off get off get off get off and
i got the mic and i put the mic down i put the mic in the stand and i said i'm going nowhere and not
one of you will do a thing about it because i had my time to do and then proceeded to do just worse
and worse stuff shitting in people's mouths child rape everything and did anyone get on board at
that point nobody see what you were doing nobody Was that like comedians starting to gather in the door?
No, didn't see anything.
Not even like a bunch?
Because normally, like, if you feel a bit of that going on,
whoever else is on, like, you'd be back there.
You know, there's always a couple of comics that aren't even on the bill
just enjoying the free booze.
Just like, and you normally just start seeing heads.
Yeah.
Start seeing heads appear at the door.
No, there was none of that.
There was no camaraderie, nothing. i didn't feel like i got any support
and then i said then i got my phone out and i filmed the last minute and i was just filming
them and and then i goes uh 10 more seconds and they gave me a countdown and then i said i hope
they all die on the way home that was my last death but they did what do you like is is it
for you because i hate it when comics like think they've had a death when they didn't get a
death,
when they didn't get the laughs they wanted and the say that they've died.
Oh,
then that was shit.
I'm like,
Oh no,
man,
you've got to,
no,
no,
that's not a death.
That's a tough gig.
Yeah.
That's a tough gig.
Like you fucking,
whatever.
I walked away with a draw kind of.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
A death is the crowd turn.
It's so obvious what a death is.
It's so obvious. People will walk out. They'll, they, yeah. A death is... The crowd turn. It's so obvious what a death is. It's so obvious.
People will walk out.
They get angry.
I think it's the only kind of live entertainment
where if something's shit, they get angry.
If there's a shit guitar player, you just don't listen.
Yeah, just start chatting amongst yourselves.
But something about comedy just makes people go,
who the fuck does that guy think he is?
Or girl, more often.
So you've got this silent death.
Yeah.
Consider that the zero, like people feeling awkward looking.
You've got nothing to play with.
I was at a Tom Horton death where 10 minutes in he was getting nothing
and he got his guitar and he asked this woman for a subject
and she just went, no.
Oh, wow.
And did he do a song about the word no?
I was the only one laughing.
I've never seen anyone sweat so much.
I mean, he sweats a lot anyway, but.
Where was the gig?
Nottingham Jonglers.
So it doesn't count.
In the grand scheme of things, it doesn't count.
Silence would probably be nice in Nottingham Jonglers
because the deaths are hard,
multiple deaths in Nottingham Jonglers,
usually Christmas gigs.
Was nobody listening
just conversations like they're all like like you're just walking into just like a rowdy busy
bar and trying to be get their attention in the door on any of it so they're just talking louder
than you yeah even though you've got a mic they're just having the conversation so like a bit of a
bit of silence in that gig as a deaf would be at least you're not fucking listening at least you're giving me a chance to get out of this you're not talking amongst
yourselves you actually are a discerning audience who decided this is not for you so i'd say that's
the three types the absolute silence which is occasionally like you'd get like the odd titter
at the beginning because some people will not want the death to happen so they'll resist the death
and like tit i laugh but then even they'll run out of steam.
Yeah.
Right.
So you've got the silence laugh.
You've got the not even paying attention laugh,
which is usually to do with the setup of the room.
Yeah.
And then you've got the death,
which you're talking about where they turn on you.
Oh.
And that's the like category A.
That's the category A death.
That's the death you want.
Yeah.
Oh, this is the death I want.
I want them to turn.
I want there to be an air of, because after the set,
someone said, do you want to walk out the back?
And I was like, no.
I'm fucking walking through these cunts.
Fucking bring it on.
I face them.
Just nothing happened.
But like, I don't know, man.
There's something about that.
I don't want it to happen again. And I've tried very hard for it not to happen again. And it hasn't happened. there's something about that I don't want it to happen again
and I've tried very hard
for it not to happen again
and it hasn't happened
there's always tonight
but
the silent one is the worst
fuck that
yeah
there's nothing to work with
that's the one where time stands still
you can't
like
time stops when it's silent
yeah
because you start thinking about
like throwing the kitchen sink at it
you'll try a bit of crowd work and you'll pop in and anyway,
after a punchline.
Anyway.
What else can I tell you about myself?
Yeah, you'll start putting really obvious ticks in like that.
Yeah.
That sounds a little bit different, the pedo alarm from earlier.
That's a slightly different alarm I'm picking up on. Sexism that's a sexism alarm it's not my took a little while
to get off that yeah yeah it's a bit needs updating that system but the yeah that that uh
yeah that silent death there's nothing you can do i did i did it years and years ago where i was
getting that death and this woman just went can you you sing? No. No, I can't.
I've never wished I could sing more,
but I can't sing.
And she just was desperate for...
Can you entertain us in an alternative way?
Just change gears completely.
Do a fucking magic trick, man.
It's with the comedy.
It's not working.
These words don't mean anything to me.
Yeah.
But the...
I was at a death a few...
Let's pop that door shut.
I don't think the makes are picking it up,
but it's just a bit off-putting for us, isn't it?
There was a death a few months ago at Manchester Store.
Where?
That's there, isn't it?
The Manchester Store at the...
Beer Keller.
The Beer Keller.
So who was it?
Are you going to...
Nah.
Nah?
I don't feel right.
Tom Horton you'll happily throw under the bus.
Well, because he's doing really well and successful and handsome.
So you don't mind making him sweaty when he's bombing?
No, he's fine.
When you paint the picture.
He's come over that.
But you don't want to make this person a really sweaty bomber.
They've been doing it way too long for a death to happen the way it did.
Uh-huh.
Way too long.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
Like they should have had the tools in the van. The gig was there. Uh-huh. too long oh really yeah like they should have the tools in the
van the gig was there uh-huh okay so it wasn't even a bad gig and they fucked it did they they
just fucked it so the the big mistake he made was he went on and he did a call back to a joke
that the audience had heard 45 minutes ago that they had to think about for too long to get any
momentum so we opened with that joke.
It didn't land.
They're spending a few seconds thinking it doesn't get a laugh.
He goes to the next joke.
They're still thinking about the other joke.
So they're not concentrating on this joke.
He lands the punchline.
They have not paid attention.
None of it makes sense.
He's a minute in and they all think he's an amateur.
So he's just fumbled his way through the start of his set.
Yeah.
And then after five minutes so
then it gets worse and worse but then what you would do right is you just fucking fast track
one of your bankers to the front of your set wouldn't you you'd reset the gig you'd reset
you'd reset the gig you'd go into something that you're going oh this is fucking surefire
yeah i didn't i didn't get them on board but i I'm just going to fucking do this bit now, which is normally a safe bit.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And he did not.
And after five minutes, the audience had had enough.
There was 15 minutes left.
And the rest of his set.
Closing.
No, middle.
No.
Was high energy.
So he could not half-ass the jokes.
So he's got to sell everything.
And no one's, no one.
Yeah.
So he gets off.
I go back on because I'm.
That's really hard if you can't just use your natural voice and then go up another and bring them back up.
You know, like.
He's got to give it everything.
Yeah, you've got to throw yourself at it.
Yeah.
So I go on and I say, ladies and gentlemen, that was blah, blah.
Doesn't always go our way. No act is booked because they're rubbish they're all back booked because they're
funny but sometimes it doesn't work but i think we'll all agree that none of us could have handled
that with such dignity as he just did it takes a lot of balls to come up here and it takes even
more balls to cope with that big round of applause for blah blah and the audience were like oh yeah okay yeah that's that's yeah okay he fucking ran
back on which you already know is like don't do that yeah yeah get the fuck out of there man yeah
and he ran back on and he screamed thank you very much hands waving in the air and then he says if you need to see more of me
and I was like
oh no
and he looked like
a crazy person
and
he will not be going back
to that venue
ever again
nah that's a dud
because the top guy
the top guy was there
oh that was it
witnessed a lot
wow
fuming
and is he a regular
at the store
eh not really
nah
no
there's no goodwill there
it was more of like
a trial
yeah okay
that's bad news
for them isn't it
it's a shame
and he's good
he's dependable
but he just fucked
just fucked it
that's really nice
you to do that
when you went on
because it is hard
as an MC
to go on
after
somebody who's like
stunk the room out
yeah
because you know
you can unionise the crowd
overthrowing them
under the bus yeah but you've got to unionize the crowd overthrowing them under the bus
yeah
but you've got to
you've got to pull the curtain
back a little bit
and go yeah
sometimes that happens
there was one way
it was
it was the
you know how they'll have
an open spot on the weekend
at the stand
that's like before
the main support
yeah
so middle section
yeah
first after the interval
there's already been
an opening act
so it's like
it's a nice little
sweet spot there
there's this guy
went on and he had
like his nose
sellotaped of his face
and he had like
a bunch of fucking
weird shit going on
like whatever
yeah
it was clearly
a character act
but nobody quite got
what like character
he was like
trying to do
and then he
got a water pistol out
and started like
squirting the girl
in the front row
with a water pistol
he was on a night out
and now her makeup's
fucking wet right
so he's just like
he's starting like the crowd are starting to get like annoyed now and i was like
i'm sure when harry hill started there was probably a lot of like looking at the stage going what the
fuck's happening here yeah i'm sure like he was weird as fuck yeah to every audience until it
locked in and everybody knew what he was trying to do yeah and then he become harry hill yeah so
if you're gonna take that route you're gonna have to take them knocks
but it was when he started spraying people in the front row what a pistols
and shit that the crowd started turn and then em because there was like a like a
bit in the middle before the next act Jojo's Joe Joe Caulfield was to say I
can't bring that I don't bring the next time on now like what do we do now like i tell you what just like have a
minute to chat amongst yourselves you should just step aside and just let them converse about what
just happened that's a great idea and then uh and then i back referenced it when i went when i went
on at the end i back referenced about like you think that was awkward for you guys we've had to
be backstage with them this whole time he's like and then i
pointed at the back the uh the stand fucking thing i was like that's the closest he came to
pulling the trigger and it just really unionized the gig that like jojo mentioned it uh sorry joe
mentioned it then i mentioned it like it was and we were nice to him backstage and we're just like
now we're doing that for the sake of the gig yeah yeah it's not personal we all know we've all
fucking been there where this bit that normally makes people laugh is not working something's gone wrong but
the big laughs coming from like where were a few guys where were a few right now so that was nice
because i think what you did is the right thing to do it might not be the best thing for the gig
but i think it's the ethically correct thing to do. It's not humiliating. I didn't get the next act on.
I then did like five minutes, got it back on track and all that.
And then the final act ripped it.
But yeah, that fucking feeling.
Again, it's not happened for ages.
Come close like where it's gone.
I opened in Preston by saying,
oh, you guys seemed lovely last night.
Just retards.
And they went, what? And I was like, oh, you guys seemed lovely last night. Just retards. And they went, what?
And I was like, oh, no.
Why did I say that?
These aren't my friends.
Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck.
And then spent 10 minutes fucking clawing it back.
Told them, oh, I used to work in care.
Don't worry.
I know all the proper terminology.
Shit, shit, shit.
Why did I say retards?
It's the worst.
I saw such a funny clip from um is a quantum leap where
like he ends up in somebody else's body i'm retarded and he just goes i'm retarded and then
the door swings over and it's like really ominous music it's a down syndrome boy and
it's the ominous music oh no oh god i hope i could leap the uh yeah the the again that my where i got my qualification from
when i worked in uh care it was developed from a place called the organization for mental retardation
and developmental disability and uh i was talking to matt reese the other week and he says
do you say retard on stage and i go yeah quite a lot, depending on where I am.
And he says, I've seen audiences really push back against that recently.
And I'm like, oh, what a bunch of retards.
It's just the way it was adopted as a word.
So it's one of them things where it might not have had the same impact
or the same intent or anything back then,
but now
there's a bit more like attached of it isn't that so you're using it as a fucking hair maker rather
than i think it depends so like i've i've had bits and so i would never open with it that's
ridiculous it's too difficult and but if if an audience is on side and they know where you're
coming from and they know what it's about you can kind of get away with anything. As long as, like, they're involved.
And as long as they know it's the right side of things.
So I've had that loads with my podcast where I get messages going, like,
I love it because I know what you're trying to do.
And I get it.
And you're like, right, good.
So we can get away.
We can carry on then.
No one has to worry about it.
It's like meeting up with, like, I met one of my old school friends the other week.
And one's Indian, one's black, one one's white and i'm the other white guy and we all know each other
known each other for fucking ages so it's just all bets are off everyone knows where everybody
stands and it's all fine um it's trying to take that dynamic on stage so people feel relaxed yeah
because there's a couple of guys in therelythe, like Vietnamese lad and Indian lad,
and they're always just getting banned off Facebook
for being racist to each other.
Yeah.
They'll always be serving their 30 days
for the shit they say about each other.
Every racist joke I get is sent to me by an ethnic minority.
Everyone who sends me a racist joke is always an Indian lad
who's always a black lad.
But it doesn't wash.
I just want to get back to something that will let go off before
when you're telling us about it being ai doing all the voices how come you got tom bins to sound
like eddie rather than tom bins no tom bins was me was it yeah i'm i was very very definite on that
because i wanted nobody to think that i'd actually got tom bins on so i didn't that's the one i
didn't change my voice for at all.
Huh?
Why did I think you got,
why did I think you got any for that?
I don't know.
Has Eddie done any of them?
No.
Cause there's so many bits where he's going,
do you know,
do you know what,
does that make sense?
Well,
it goes,
does that make sense?
Yeah.
That's what he,
that's like one of his mannerisms I feel.
But what you got to remember is I've got 160 episodes of him talking right so you feed that into an ai so do you get the ai
and you converse back to the ai yeah so it's reacting to what you're saying no no no no no so
so like the like the notebook conversation which i'll send you and I'll give you an idea of what I mean, is that you can put certain things in and it will generate a conversation and it's a two-way conversation.
And all I do is take like a load.
That's why it's so much work.
I have to take a load of a conversation and strip it down so that I can make a conversation out of it.
Right.
It's much easier when it's just me talking to me.
Right.
Because I can script it and I can know what I'm going to say.
When it's an AI, it's different because they're going to come out with something that's a bit different.
So Tom Binns wasn't AI.
Tom Binns was me.
And the guy in Benidorm wasn't Barry Dodds.
No.
And the Raoul Mote guy wasn't Gavin Webster.
No.
And I'm not an idiot for falling for this.
No.
Okay. What's real which again is the point like i don't want anyone to know what's real all i want is for
people to get to the end and go what the fuck was that uh-huh that's all i want i mean that's
what's happening that was yeah yeah yeah it's great and it's brilliant like we've been absolutely
howling like we're fucking talking about it in WhatsApp groups.
I'm a bit behind on it, actually.
I've done about four episodes.
I've still got loads to listen to.
Episode six was the one where I thought,
this is where I find out if I'm okay.
Is that the Tom Binns one?
No.
Because I did jump ahead to watch that one.
That was out of sequence.
I watched that out of sequence.
I can't remember which one the Tom Bin can't remember because i'm playing catch-up because originally i recorded six uh-huh to sort of give me a bit
of breathing room yeah you know what that's like i just left it until the last minute and now it's
like oh shit i gotta do it so i haven't got time to think about it i just do it um but number six
is the one um called ghosts witches and psychics and that's the one where i was like if anyone's gonna complain
it's this one right and that's out now and that's out yeah i'm on 11 so a couple of things
uh how are you getting away with seeing your bbc radio derby i don't know you get he had a
cease and desist yet no no no comment at all i consulted um some legal advice and essentially
nobody will believe that i am on bbc radio derby it's so obvious that you're not bbc radio derby
the first the first time you listen to the travel bbc radio that's from the 1980s you got a jingle
yeah that's from the 1980s is that ai or is that just
no that's that's the actual bbc that's bbc radio derby from the late 80s okay so that's
that's one lawsuit you're gonna be on more charges man city
then jerk mate if may have something to say but that would be quite funny getting a legal
you can collab with jerk mate you you sloss and humphries can collab with jerk rate you can go on jerk mate
website and you can click on collaboration okay jerk mate won't have an issue so they're just
like if you want to push us push us yep that's just like if i if i just decide now to start
telling everybody like fucking buying apple iphone yeah but like if i use the apple advert now that
would be a different thing.
I don't know.
I don't know how any of it works.
My general position is ask for forgiveness,
not permission.
I'm not a rapist, say that.
Yeah.
Well, I am a rapist.
Oh, no.
This podcast will haunt me
if you turn out to be a bad guy.
Yeah, if I do actually.
You fucking fuck.
Man.
He was arrested for rape.
He fucking told us.
He was like, was there any red flags?
Yes.
There's a massive red flag.
There's a red flag.
There's an admission of guilt.
Yeah, so when I spoke to the solicitor about the Radio Derby thing,
he just said, I think it'll be fine.
Yeah?
Who was the solicitor?
Just something drunk.
Ty's just loose.
He's clocked off.
It's five o'clock.
Because it's not like misrepresentation.
Because it's like using, I'm trying to think what it's like.
It's like using Mozart.
There's no copyright on Mozart, so you can just use it.
Aye, but Mozart's been like, what, 1700s or something?
I don't know.
I don't know anybody who has, but BBC's like a current organisation.
Yeah, that I'm not working for.
Yeah.
But also, as the episodes progress,
it will become quite obvious why I've chosen bbc radio derby oh you've got
like a through lock there's a fucking actual narrative what people are listening to is a
sitcom is it don't realize is it um is it a big black cock pun it's not it should be you're fond
of them i am very very very fond you're very fun a screen captain name BBC on the
BBC Pornhub titles and then putting a new story to it like somebody's upset
that their relations went up some of my finest work on you got a reams and reams
of that yeah is it catalogues can they find that as it's yeah that's all I left
that all on my Instagram so they're all the lift in and all the jiu-jitsu and
just left comedy stuff on there
So there's not much
You've took the lifting off?
Took most of the lifting off
Why?
I think I took all of it off
Just got bored of it
I get bored
Do you still lift though?
Yeah
Yeah
What are you picking up at the minute?
Deadlift
280
That's fucking
Just for one
That's unrealistic that
Just got gotta work out
Oh
I've
160's where I put
Every time I
That was the
You know just before lockdown
I'd worked really hard
Getting up to 160
Which is solid
And I was happy with it
Because it was twice my body weight
At the time
Yeah
And then they shut the gyms
And I was like
I'm gonna have to come back to that
Are you ready to do a
Make check
Sorry about that
Just had to do a Quick check? Sorry about that.
Just had to do a quick sound check on the mic.
For the show tonight, what were we talking about?
The deadlifts.
Yeah, closing the gyms.
That fucked me up big time.
Fuck loads of people up.
That's why I ended up training people,
because people would come around my garage and lift.
Because you work hard to get to a point,
and the goal-driven mentality of it and the incremental gains like you don't realize how much your mental
health's attached to that when you're doing it oh god yeah and then to pull that infrastructure
away from you like the your self-care almost like it was planned uh and there it was the
closing the libraries and the gyms and just going all right so that's that's how we know the
country's run by fat,
stupid people.
And they don't see any of those things as essential.
Yeah.
People want to,
you know,
no,
no,
no,
no,
no,
no,
no,
no,
no,
no,
no,
no,
no,
no,

no,
no,
no,
no,
no,
no,
no,
no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, it'll be fine so that's is there anything else
the content wise
nobody's not going to stop booking you for gigs
unless I talk about it
on stage but all of
the feedback from comedians
and promoters has been
just blown away
everyone's just
I think you should actually
be the case
study of like
what is it you want
to say
if you say you can't
say anything
you can joke about anything
what is it you're trying
to get away with saying
well look at South Park
it's been around for
how long
and it does everything
yeah did they not
used to
give the
episode
to the
broadcaster
an hour before
it was due to air so they could watch it and go we
can't put that up and then they go well don't then you're going to get more complaints for not putting
it up that was one of their strategies but also they they developed the technology so that they
could make an episode in three days so they could leave it till the very very last minute did they
used to used to did they used to move cardboard around there was those that was the first episode is that is that how basic it was when they started yeah which is amazing fucking
class because they were so good the first the first ever ones felt really groundbreaking well
i was talking about this with my mate about when the movie came out we were like oh that's it it's
over because the movie felt like an end kenny talked, he went to heaven. And we're like, what a great way to end it.
That was season three.
We're on 25, 26?
It's still going now.
I don't think they've dropped their standards, any.
It's just too good.
It's so good.
It just gets funnier.
And like every time something happens,
you're like, I want to see what South Park have to say about it.
Yeah, yeah.
It's hugely influential.
And again, like you can't say anything.
They do it all the time.
Yeah.
I'm really, really looking forward to seeing what Rockstar Games do
with Grand Theft Auto 6.
Yeah.
Because that's always caused problems in society
with, like, blaming it on violence and shooting and shit like that.
They've always hung shit on that. But they've never seemed to give a fuck nor should they it's the biggest entertainment
uh grossing entertainment product in history two days a billion dollars the biggest problem they're
going to have for six is like how they're going to distribute it yeah i mean surely if you can
just download it it'll just wake up and it'll be on your... How big are the servers going to be?
It's going to be so complex.
They're just going to crash.
You know what servers are like.
They just crash if they're overwhelmed.
Everyone downloading it at exactly the same time.
Millions and millions of people.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's going to be fucking amazing.
Yeah, I think I'm going to have to schedule some time off
around about that time.
When's it due out?
It's next year, isn't it?
I think it was next January, but I imagine it's being pushed back again.
Because they're not going to do what happened with Cyberpunk,
where they go, right, we've got this big marketing strategy.
We're putting it out then.
And then all the fucking stressed out programmers are like,
it's fucking not ready yet.
It's glitchy as hell.
And they're like, yeah, but we've got the marketing strategy.
Put it out.
And then it turned out to fucking flop because it was too shit to play. And then now they've fixed it no one cares about it it's a fucking great game
how you played it no no no it's fucking class it's fixed right but it just flopped because it was
glitchy when it released i think rockstar by the looks of it are just gonna go it's fucking ready
when it's ready like you wait until we say it's ready they can wait they've got billions in the bank billions and billions so fuck it wait make it good yeah i can't wait but yeah again
you can't say anything watch them they're about to do it although someone said i should pitch
a radio show to rockstar as one of the stations oh that would be good yeah so i might do that i
might send them him an email.
Give me, what, that'd give me an hour long.
So let's say a year and 50 episodes.
It's a Scottish company, isn't it?
Yeah, it's based in Edinburgh.
Yeah.
You're bound to have an in for that.
You're bound to have an ear at Rockstar Games somewhere.
Somebody.
Someone.
Right, okay.
If anyone's out there.
Reach out. It's funny what people
come through with
reach out
somebody might just be
pals with somebody
that has a job
at Rockstar Games
that knows the right guy
like
be the matchmaker
and get
Dave Longley
and touch away
a guy at Rockstar Games
I don't want any money
and then he can be
a radio station
scratch that
I want some money
when we're driving along
listening to Dave Longley
Speaking to fucking
8-11-10-0-Z-I
Fucking bewildered as that
I'm still shocked
I fucking thought I'd pinned every person
Yeah
Did you run Gavin Webster's voice through it
To make it jody?
I didn't do any of it
My mate did it Did he? And was he trying to simulate Gavin Webster? Or through it to make it Geordie. I didn't do any of it. My mate did it.
Did he?
And was he trying to simulate Gavin Webster?
Or was it just by chance?
He must have done.
He must have done.
Yeah, he must have done.
Because he lived in Newcastle.
He went to university in Newcastle.
Yeah.
So he knows Geordie voices.
But they're both Geordies, but slightly different.
Mm-hmm.
But yeah, someone...
Because he's got a very distinct voice as well, Gavin.
Who, Gavin?
Yeah, it's not like
it's not like you couldn't just have put like main or john fowler girls or jason cooks or someone
like chris ramses like his is so distinct from but he's also got because of his podcast he's got
tons of his self out there so that's what the algorithm does that's what ai does is it essentially steals things so the theme music for fgm of the week on the podcast you're gonna have to find out for yourself
what that is i've got i've got 12 different versions of it can i have to give it seven stitches
but all my mate put in was the parameters for fGM of the week. And he was the one who created the company Beast and Orthotics to sponsor it.
And AI did the rest.
What is Beast and Orthotics?
It's completely made up.
It doesn't exist.
Yeah.
What does Orthotics mean?
Stuff to help your feet if you're walking.
That's why it says just because you've got flat feet does not mean that your feet should feel flat walking. That's why the guy says, just because you've got flat feet
does not mean that your feet should feel flat.
And that's a fact.
So the meta joke is that a breakfast show
would have FGM of the week.
Then you've got the further joke
that a company decided that they would sponsor FGM.
So then you've got the joke as well
that they are so happy sponsoring it
that they'll give you 20% off if you mention it.
So there's so many jokes wrapped in it, but his idea was beast and i thought it wasn't my idea he put that into the ai
the ai generated 10 different songs for fgm of the week and that's the one i picked because it's
quite jolly yeah it goes and it turns out that the staff at birmingham glee hum it do they yeah
that's great i was blown away when they told me that yeah they said that
when there's a customer who's a bit difficult because they can't say anything to the customer
they just start going the home of female genital mutilation you should uh fucking amazing it should
happen as you walk out yeah it's just walking it should walk on stage oh so
going back to that so yeah so the way that creates the music is it steals from all the other music
that's ever been created so you just put in cheesy radio and it will create you 10 or 12 or 20
different themes and um so he puts in geordie stand-up comedian talking the one that's on the online the most
will be whoever's got the most podcasts yeah so there you go that's how he did it feel a little
bit overlooked there it's nothing to do with me how did the ai not uh find sloss and humphries
on the road two episodes a week since 2016 maybe your accent is part of that voice
and do you think so maybe every time uh milo does a jolly on stage it's we made soppit i don't know
if you've ever met soppit the squatty lad it's quite a distinct probably maybe it's got quite a
distinct like angry jolly accent and he always slides into that and it's always it's always
soppit yeah it's really funny because it's like he nails it.
It's like watching Soppet do stand-up.
I asked Milo if he wanted to do anything on it
and he said, absolutely not.
That's a good guy.
He's getting contracts to make fucking PGA Golf
and Formula One.
Do you want to do FGM of the week?
You're going to put your entire career
on the line
can you plug it
on your socials
I did message him that
I said I think
it would be a good idea
if you did it
well I think
I think the best way
for comics to plug you
on their socials
is to just do what
me and Danny did
and pretend that
we don't listen to it
like we listen to it
so you don't have to
oh it's just
yeah it was just
dead nice
if Milo's like
absolutely do not listen to this then what's he saying to oh it's just yeah if milo's like absolutely do not listen to
this then and what's he saying yeah but again i've opened for milo on his tour shows and i just don't
do that kind of material yeah i keep it really nice and pleasant and my job that night is to
warm everybody up for him it's nothing to do with me uh and it's the same tonight it's nothing to do
with me i try and when i open for brag i make sure none of that's done but the whole point of it is like i've got this opportunity to be completely free
and it's all on me so why not just do it just go for it make yourself laugh like if you listen to
ad nauseum derrick and clive it's fucking amazing is it peter cook and dudley moore from early 80s
i think or late 70s it's unbelievable and it's so good and it's it's
essentially a podcast but it was done before podcasts exist it's just those two in the studio
going back and forth great and it's unreal yeah because I think there's a difference so like
there's the stuff that you're saying that's like you have been fucking tongue firmly lodged in your
cheek yeah yeah I can intellectually defend all of it but then there's there's some shit i was listening to from like opiate anthony where i was just like oh
you guys are bad men yeah like you're not really a boring guy is that like i feel like women are
safe around yeah but i was chatting about it on the way in with um with brag and i was just like
i can intellectually defend so i've written one this week where i'm talking about how great britain is and uh but also
talking about patriotism and how that leads into a certain kind of exceptionalism which breeds a bit
of racism and that's what nationalism can end up being so i cover it all and i can intellectually
defend it but the end of the day the punch line is going to be unfortunately something that's a
little bit tongue-in-cheek racist.
Yeah, and it's usually said by the opinion cow who you just have to agree to disagree with.
The opinion cow's our own thing.
She's a law to herself.
I love the opinion cow,
because you're being the voice of reason.
You've got to hold her to account.
You're always holding her to account,
and then at the end, just exasperate,
like we're going to have to agree to disagree.
Yeah, have to agree to disagree.
But that's cows. They're all anti-Semitic. Yeah, have to agree to disagree. But that's cows.
They're all anti-Semitic.
Yeah, that one is for sure.
I don't know.
Jewish people wouldn't eat.
I found out in adult life that they won't eat the animal and the milk.
You can't have a latte.
I was at a Jewish cafe in London
and I ordered a latte and a
burger.
Which is a weird combo.
You can't have beef with milk.
Jewish people can eat beef?
You mean Hindus?
No, I mean they don't do the two things together.
Oh. You can't have beef and milk.
Which is a strange order anyway,
a latte and a fucking burger. Something along those lines, bud. So they't have beef and milk, which is a strange order anyway, that here in a fucking burger.
It was something like them lines, bud.
So they can have beef.
Uh-huh.
They can have milk.
Can't have beef and milk.
Yeah.
And if I'm making this up,
it's because a cafe denied us it.
And then Natalie told me that's why.
Was she trying to calm you you down i thought you should know
this how do you not know that don't kick off about this i want a burger and i want a latte
what is the fucking problem it's a religious thing oh and it's because i'm there with my
muslim wife i'm not serving you they just weren't they just weren't the same as yeah that's uh that's
so that's you didn't know about that? No, I've never heard that.
Yeah.
All my friends are Indian.
I know about, like, you can't eat certain things on Tuesday
and you've got to be a bit holy and all this sort of thing.
I think it's the animal and the thing of the animal.
I wonder if there's anything else of the animal that we eat.
I guess cheese.
So you couldn't have a cheese burger.
Maybe it was that I was ordering.
Maybe it was, like like cheese on me burger
where were you eating
it was in
where's Sherlock Holmes
from again
oh
oh
Baker Street
yeah
Baker Street
what
and I wasn't allowed
it was
it was something to do
with like
that would have been it
I wouldn't have been
having a latte and a burger
I would have been
trying to have cheese on my burger
or something.
That's insane.
Natalie was like,
you're not allowed the thing off the cow.
But then now I'm starting to really doubt it.
I don't know what's real anymore after AI fucking bombshell,
which I keep going back to.
So I'm not going to assume that I know the facts of life
because the one situation in my life pointed that direction.
Right, yeah.
But that's that's
the world i lived in up until now ai is unreal what it can do i literally so so you haven't
caught up yet but i've got a quiz show theme and i just put in quiz show cheesy bang 10 songs yeah
10 what do you use what do you what What do you use? I used quite a few
For the interview between the two AI people again, my friend did it. I'm saying me he did it because I don't know what I'm doing
but he used a notebook by Google and
Honestly listening to the two people talking. Do you know what? I might just just
Finish it
Yeah, because they weren't they're gonna want to let the crowd in which means play music I might just just as a just as a finisher the door's heat open now so let's wrap this up yeah
because they're going to
want to let the crowd in
which means playing music
but the
crowd going in
oh no
that's not the one
I know
they've started the music
I don't think it's going to
go on the podcast
what are you wrapping up with here
so this is
two people talking
about the Dave Longley
breakfast show
oh I might not even get a signal
oh here we are
alright buckle up
because today we're diving head first into the utterly bonkers world of the Dave Longley Breakfast Show. Oh, I might not even get a signal. Oh, here we are. All right, buckle up.
Because today we're diving headfirst into the utterly bonkers world
of the Dave Longley Breakfast Show.
Oh, this one is a doozy.
We've got a YouTube video and a transcript.
And let me tell you,
it's like someone marinated a British morning radio show
in pure absurdity.
It's satire, but with a bite.
Like a comedic hand grenade aimed right at society's soft spots.
From the second it starts, it's pure chaos.
But the genius is how they use that chaos to actually make some pretty insightful points.
It's like they took the most ridiculous parts of morning radio,
the wacky news, the outlandish traffic, the even more outlandish callers,
and amplified it tenfold
and it works i mean who needs traffic reports when you can have escaped zoo animals on the m1
right it's so absurd but it also makes you think maybe our fascination with these little bits of
chaos says something about us so sorry no that's that's good i just want to listen the rest of it
does that go on what's it nine minutes oh wait okay yeah it's a conversation for nine minutes
and they
start talking about the opinion cow fgm of the week the callers and you're listening to it going
this is completely fabricated it's not two humans talking it's ai generated which is why it's so
powerful which is why i give it all to him to do is this why is this the point where we tell the
listeners that this is actually ai yeah we never lifted a finger and
yeah we were just sat there coming up yeah backstage yeah the beard was just to hide the
lip movement oh yeah you've got an instagram filter on all right dave uh thanks for coming
on the podcast and if you want to find uh longlees it's the morning breakfast show
