You need to get a pint of Guinness.
This is a pint of actual Guinness,
and they've given me it in a fucking Guinness 0%.
Just making sure you didn't put it on Instagram.
Plus, proper embarrassing.
I had to sit in the bar like I was some kind of cuck.
And then we both tried to split the G
and missed by about a mile.
We didn't get anywhere near it.
Actually, by the way
I'm putting myself in Muggle Corner here
but I'm bringing back Muggle Corner
to see if you're splitting the jury in Muggle Corner
you fell for a market employee
as a market employee
I feel like Guinness is the only pint in the world
that has stared at more than it's fucking drunk
people
Guinness politics does my tits in
where people are like
you've not let
that settle properly
there's bubbles
in the head
fucking drink it
but yeah
splitting the G's
100% market
there isn't another
stout though is there
let's be real
yeah I wouldn't even know
Conor McGregor's
got one eh
I think he's got
a rape charge
now
yeah
it's the only stout
you can buy
If you're underage
I didn't say it was enough
Unless he sees this
In which case
Sorry
He put Conor on the
He put the name Conor on the map though
Oh aye
There's not been very
Many famous Conors
Oh hold on
No surely not
Surely there was more
Famous Conors before Conor McGregor There's not been many Because Conor McGreg Oh, hold on. No, surely not. Surely there was more famous Connors
before Conor McGregor.
Because Conor McGregor came on like in 2012?
Aye.
2013, I think.
But then, aye?
Nah, I'm telling you, man.
As a Conor,
there is not many famous Conors.
So Conor McGregor is to you
what Kai Rooney is to me?
Aye.
There's quite a few
Connors in American

like high school
athletes and stuff

set when you tell people to find your social media to make sure it's connor with two n's
yeah connor because connor one n which is connor that with one n is how mcgregor spells it but that
connor burns it's like disgraced which is the correct way
to spell it
I look
I think the Irish way
is C-O-N-O-R
are you like Gary
with two R's
no I'm not
don't want me having
Gary with two R's
I fucking hate that
Gary with two R's
Connor with two N's

I said once in a
Starbucks
they asked me my name
I said it's Connor and I went two me my name, I said it's Connor.
And I went two N's, two O's.
And she wrote Connor.
I didn't think you needed to specify two O's.
I was just having fun with it.
You've just been cooking.
Two N's, two O's.
One C.
Put it away.
One C, put it away, one C.

for sexual misconduct
as well
he's had some kind
of sexual scandal
it's a kind of thing
you just wouldn't
understand
yeah
one n
one n
yeah
two out of three
ain't bad
one n horror
yeah
I'm gonna miss
Conor McGregor's
Twitter voice notes
though
I mean he might be
the only guy
using that feature
you know like that's his thing he gets like cooked up and smashed and puts voice notes though I mean he might be the only guy using that feature you know like
that's his thing
he gets like
cooked up and smashed
and puts voice notes
on Twitter
I don't like when people
send us voice notes
directly
oh man
but it's amazing
you know what
I didn't mind them
I just might not be able
to listen to it
straight away
like I would with a text
aye
like yeah
you're giving us
something for later
you're also
it's like you're giving me
fucking homework like just I can glance at a message and get the jest you force me into listening you know
what I voice note I voice know selfishly when I'm whacking the dog it's fucking up pain in the ass
Texan when you are there's certain places I despise having to take a phone call mmm let's see
if you're on like a busy high street
yeah
and you're forced
into a phone conversation
yeah
I get so
I get so angry
that guy
between us
on the treadmill
we both went
in the gym right
there's only three people
in the gym
us two
and one guy
yeah
right
and he ended up
on the middle treadmill
I wanted on a treadmill
but there's only two
so I had to take the bike
Bike to his side
Aye
I took the thing
On the other side
And he just took a phone call
A video call
Aye
He had it resting
On the thing
He was
He was skyping his missus
He skyped his missus
From the treadmill
Aye aye aye
And he
I had a full blown conversation
With somebody on the treadmill
Do you know what that tells me
What
He's cheated before
Nah do you think so And he's in a hotel me he's cheated before no do you think
and he's in a hotel and he's like look honey i'm just if you see me later and i've got a
picture of me later i've got a sweat on it's just because i was at the gym i promise
he's got a check in yeah i screamed of that but he was uh it was an intense presence
to my left having a guy having a full phone conversation
yeah
was he having
a conversation
in English
I had my headphones
on so I could
just see it was
happening
I couldn't hear him
either
but I did
I did leave a voice
note when I was
on the treadmill
because I had
like a bunch
of messages
of somebody
that needed
a swift reply
and the reason
they kept messaging
was because
they were just
trying to do
something that
required attention.
And I was on the treadmill and I literally just fucking replied, explaining.
Conor McGregor's ones is he'd get like coked up and go on Twitter.
One of the famous one is the one where he's making fun of Dana White.
It's so good, man.
He's like, no, sorry.
He's making fun of Joe Rogan for his commentary.
That's great.
You need to find the actual file. But he's like, he's like pretending to of Joe Rogan for his commentary that's great you need to find the actual file
but he's like
he's like
pretending to be Joe Rogan
he's like
that's an illegal knee
to a downed opponent
he's like
shut up Joe
you little fucking fool
yeah
I'll slap ya
and he's like laughing at himself
he's like
clearly smashed
man he fucking
I fell for his charm
so hard man
when he started
mate I don't even mind
admitting this
I bought his DVD
you had a DVD
yeah
when he was
right after he beat out
Jose Aldo
was it the documentary
Notorious
Notorious
I had it on DVD
did you
which is weird
I didn't think
I had it on like
because I had definitely
seen that without having
a hard copy of it
I think I was honestly I think I was so far that without having a hard copy of it I think I was
honestly I think I was
so far up his arse
that I was like
I want to support
his format
it was so bad
because like
it was this guy
that was just
so arrogant
but it didn't count
as arrogance
because he kept winning
and he was like
it was a great story
it was like proper
working class
you know
he was working
on a building
remember when he was
like a spotty skinhead and he would hijack the fucking uh the press on like the the cage cage
warriors stuff and those are just like you just dive into the cameras and just amazing and those
early weigh-ins so he looked like a crackhead like he looked so scary yeah when he was fighting
it like well he's like fighting like what 145 and stuff um and he just looked like there was
like fighting like what 145 and stuff um and he just looked like there was something in his eyes yeah and then he just got like rich and fat and coked up and just weird yeah man i think
because he was he well you know i think it takes 10 years to become an overnight success
he obviously it was years and years of training, but he got famous.
Like, he got best paid sports person in the world famous.
Yeah.
Within three years.
Like, I don't think anybody can get you ready for that.
Should I never give these gypsies money?
No, it's a Rick James.
To paraphrase. Please include that. That was the words of Rick James to paraphrase please include that
that was the words of Rick James
to paraphrase Rick James
but no one prepares you for that
fuck your couch
I love to see the Charlie Murphy Hollywood stories
of Conor McGregor
I've got a story about Charlie Murphy Hollywood stories of Conor McGregor. I've got a story
about Charlie Murphy.
Not my own story,
but like a one degree
of separation.
You might even
meet the promoter
in the next couple of gigs
I ran by.
Amazing.
This promoter.
He was promoting
Charlie Murphy's tour,
comedy tour.
Amazing.
Talking to people tour.
Yeah.
Spoke in an audience
with Charlie Murphy.
Yeah.
And at the end
of the tour
Brang was like
I'm gonna get me
sell this
fucker
I've had my eye
on this gorgeous whiskey
that's at this whiskey bar
right
at the end of the tour
I'm gonna get me
sell one of these whiskeys
right
I really fancy it
and it was like
fucking something
90 euros
or something ridiculous
right
so he gets his
dram of whiskeys
and enjoyed it
and Charlie Murphy
comes up
and he's like
what's that
he's like
oh it's such and such a whiskey.
He's like, I'll have one.
And Brian's like, oh, fuck, I'm going to get this guy.
And he was like, he went away to chat with his mate.
And then he was like, he probably won't know a 90-pound whiskey
compared to a normal whiskey.
Yeah, you're definitely getting him a famous gross now.
He ended up getting him like a fucking Jack Daniels or something.
And Charlie Murphy just come back and just scalded him right away.
And he was like, oh, phew.
Thank God. a fucking Jack Daniels or something Charlie Murphy just come back and just scold it right away he was like oh phew thank god but also
we're like
fucking zero degrees
of separation
from Conor McGregor
because
you know about
Danny on Conan
no
you know
when Daniel was on
Conan right
there's a fucking
producer who booked
him on it
called JP right
you probably met him
a bunch of times
at the Fringe
he was at the Fringe
this year
he's always there
I'm not sure
what he's working on
at the moment
but he's there
and Danny was just
like fucking
like what we were
talking about
hook line and sinker
for Conor McGregor
yeah mate
he spoke to like
a generation of us
so Danny is telling
JP about this guy
who's got this fight
coming up
and everything
I think the fight was on that weekend or something maybe one of his fights against like of us so Danny is telling JP about this guy who's got this fight coming up and everything ended up there
I think the fight
was on that
weekend or
something
maybe one of
his fights
against like
fucking
who would
he have been
fighting back
then
Chan Mendes
or something
or like
Dustin Poirier
yeah
or Brimage
Marcus Brimage
maybe
it was like
one of the
early fights
what was that
Dennis Seaver
do you remember
that one
and he fucking
battered him
so he was like
he was on the
up
maybe he's had
his first couple
of fights
so it probably
wasn't Brim and
Joporia
but it might
have been
Mendes or
Seaver
so
Danny gets
JP onto
this new
fighter
JP gets a
little bit of
a fucking
mushroom blood
for him
and sees him
fight Aldo
and go,
this guy's the fucking tits,
let's get him on Conan.
Right?
So JP fucking manages to get Conor McGregor on Conan.
I've seen that.
And then tells Conor McGregor
that it was Daniel
who got him onto this, right?
So he ended up
ringing Danny, right?
Danny didn't pick up,
so he got the answer phone message.
And the answer phone message was,
my man, I heard you got me on Conan.
So I just want to say thank you.
That's unreal.
I ended up like patching the audio
with a picture of Daniel on the phone
and a picture of Conan on the phone
and like patching the audio on it
and put it on social media.
Oh, is that out there?
It's out there.
It exists.
Oh man, I've never seen that.
I'll probably be able to get hold of it
on my phone, on my iPad.
And it was, that was the Conan
where
after he'd beat Aldo
or whatever
Conan was asking
what's next
and he was like
I don't know
I'll always get
Floyd Mayweather
out of bed
right
so then the fight
with Floyd Mayweather
happened
and Danny was there
going
I'm partially responsible
for one of the biggest
fights in fucking history
but like also
completely responsible
for the demise
of Conor McGregor
yeah you are
because once he
yeah that's not a fun
that's not a fun
voicemail message
to have now
it isn't
it isn't fun
nah there's people
in the world
that dread seeing
his name come up
on their phone now
fuck man
you know what
I saw a clip
and fair play to the reporter
but I saw a clip of him
today coming out of court
and like the reporter
was a braver guy than me
because he went up to him
and was like
so Connor
you're officially a rapist
do you have anything
you want to say about it?
Did he?
Aye.
Was that here in Dublin as well?
It must have been aye
it must have been aye.
He's like
so you're officially a rapist
do you have anything
to say about it?
What did he have to say?
He just got straight in the car
he was just shepherded
right through
if I was working
for the
Dublin Chronicle
or whatever it is
and they put that
in front of me
I'd be like
I'm probably just
going to go and ask him
what his next move is
what's your next move
why would you
confront a guy
who's just lost
at all
I did an interview
the other day
and the interview started with
so you've described yourself
as a wannabe gangster
I've got a list of questions
I've got a list of questions
I'm not
first of all
we'll come back to that
let's figure out
where that came from
but you have described yourself
to that to me
multiple times
I have
yeah yeah yeah
wannabe gangster
with your eyes
I really want to be a gangster i wish
connor i wish i was a gangster i want to be involved in organized crime
but i've got adhd i'm just not organized enough disorganized i want to start a gang but nobody
wants to join me i just want to be a gangster How do you start a gang anyway?
Who would you ask?
Wait, wait
So if we're going to start a gang
What are we going to be doing?
What would lure you?
What would lure you into my gang?
I was like
Here I come
I've got this job
I'm so scared of jail
That it would have to be so alluring
Alright
So nothing that's going to get you locked up
Something that's going to get you suspended sentence
Like a really petty crime gang Aye alluring. All right, so nothing that's going to get you locked up, something that's going to get you suspended sentence.
Like a really petty crime gang.
Aye.
We can be like,
what about vigilante?
What about like,
if someone's got a clamp on their car?
Oh,
because that would be a crime,
wouldn't it,
their own clamp cars?
Aye.
Or pay people speed and fine.
Yeah, yeah.
Say it's 120 quid to get the clamp off your car.
We turn up and we take 60 quid off the guy
and we cut the clamp off for him
so like we're making money
but we're also saving people money
the clamp boys
do people get clamped anymore though?
no I don't think that's a thing
I haven't seen a clamp on a wheel
in a long long time
you know what we are we're just renaissance men I haven't seen a clamp on a wheel in a long long time so you may have
you know what we are mate
we're just renaissance men
I might have to be in somewhere that's a little bit less developed
like Sunderland
start the clamping gang
I'm not just making fun of Sunderland
because you're a Newcastle fan
and I'm not making fun of Sunderland
particularly but I remember I just so happened to be doing a gig incastle fan and I'm not making fun of Sunderland particularly but I remember
I just so happened to be
doing a gig in Sunderland
and I remember
I had time to kill during the day
and I was looking at
it was a bingo hall
I was standing like in the middle of Sunderland
just looking at it
that's where the gig was?
no no no
but I was just like in town
like walking about killing time
before the gig
and the bingo hall
honestly I was like it's undergoing repairs like walking about killing time before the gig. And the bingo hall, honestly, I was like,
um,
like it's undergoing repairs.
Like there was bits of it missing.
Uh,
I was just standing and thinking to myself,
I wonder what they're turning that into.
And then 400 old women came out of it.
And I was like,
Oh,
that's still a functioning bingo hall.
So there was holes in it.
So did you think, did you think it was like a fucking quarantined,
like they were saying,
boxed off, so we're going to turn it into flats?
I couldn't believe it.
I was about to get some work done.
Honestly, it did not look like a fit place for humans to be in.
And then all these old biddies shuffled out of it.
You can add the people from Sunderland
have to fly from Newcastle to get to Spain.
I bet they love that
I fucking hate it
who flies it
we sing it to them
we sing it to them
at the match
you have to fly
from Newcastle
to get to Spain
you have a hot dog
sausage in a
big apple
you have a hot dog
sausage in a
big apple
oh that's really funny
They hate it
they fucking hate it
I
because
does Sunderland
have an airport?
There's a
Tayside airport
I think it's got like
maybe it's one destination
I think
Hell
Straight hell
Tayside airport
it actually flies
to Amsterdam
and I find that
really good
because there's
some macs
at my gig
oh really
we love them
we love them really
yeah you know what
I do get Maccams
at my shows
you know
hands across the water
absolutely man
have you seen
the documentary
where the Maccams
come to the show
coming out
as Chi fans
no
the other documentary
oh yes
ah yeah
something like that
aye
Alfie Joy
Alfie Joy was on it
doing stuff
yeah
like what if
Al Pacino
or something
yeah
just take any week
and get his impression
it's a very weird
documentary
em
oh that was
another one as well
there was a like as well there was a
I think there was
like a
checkers
checkers
trade cup
or something
for like the
under 20s
yeah
and I think
my
might not be
picking up
so I'm just
gonna
I don't know
how long that's
been but I'm
just gonna give
this a wiggle
I dropped it
a little bit
before
one two
one two
what's that on
18 minutes I just fell out before I saw it a little bit before. One, two, one, two. What's that on? 18 minutes.
I just fell out before.
I saw it.
Okay.
Yeah, there was just some fucking
just under-21s cup game
when Newcastle and Sunderland
hadn't played each other in years.
It was before the recent derby
in the FA Cup.
And it's the first time they've met
since the Netflix special.
And even though it was like
an under 21 game
like all the Newcastle fans
were just going
we saw you cry
on Netflix
we saw you cry
on Netflix
that's so good man
I went through
a thing of like
have you ever watched
the thing that's like
side by side comparisons
of English
and British football chants
compared to
American football chants
in America it's so embarrassing man
there's one that's an American one
and it's a guy
I think it's a USA national team game
and the guy's
dressed as Roosevelt
with a hat and the sword
and he's leading the fans
in a chant
and he's like
the whole chant is,
we will fight and we will win.
We will fight and we will win.
He's like, USA, USA, we will fight and we will win.
And then it cuts to one where it was like,
yeah, lasses are grass.
Jamie Vardy, yeah, lasses are grass.
It cut to that one.
It was, who was it? We're going to score a goal. Jamie Vardy amasses a grass cut to that one it was
who was it
we're going to score a goal
your dad watches elephants
and your
Adi Bayor
Adi Bayor
your dad watches elephants
and your mum's a whore
as he's getting
stretched
stretched
we were
at the
home game
against Leeds
but right next
to the away end
so like
we're in
fucking
like arguing
distance with
the away fans
and we're like
he's one of
your own
he's one of
your own
Jamie Savile
he's one of
your own
and then they
give it a beat
and it came back
he fucked
all your kids
he fucked
all your kids
Jamie Savile he fucked all your kids he fucked all your kids jamie samuel he fucked all your kids
sometimes you can see that you know i was on the hot water green room with jamie hutchinson
tony carroll right straight after danny stagg i am i'd watched the the newcastle man united game
in a fucking bar in Vegas and the anchor or something
like just some off the strip
middle of the desert fucking pub
like English pub
they cut into the Queen
and then there's just all these
fucking Man United fans
that like were American
Yeah because Man United fans
live anywhere but fucking Manchester
Come on you red devils
I was doing all that shit
and I was telling
Jamie Hutchinson about when David De Gea
fucking cleared the ball out of the box
in like the 80th minute and the
Man United American fan of the Man United
top pointed me and said sweeper keeper
so I tell this story
on that podcast
it gets clipped up and put out
and I'm at Newcastle
versus PSG
at the Parc de France
in the away end
right
enjoying the game
and I just hear
some lad go
sweeper
keeper
it was a
it was a lad
like halfway
across the away stand
who'd spotted
this
it was a tremendous
bit of power
realised where he knew
he was from
and went
sweeper
keeper
across the away stand see when you say like oh man we gotta have to score an extra timer Oh, it's a tremendous bad part. Realized where he knew he was from and went, sweeper, keeper.
Cross the waist.
See, when you say like, oh man, we got to have to score an extra timer, it's going to go to PKs.
PKs.
It's going to go to PKs.
Man, there's only one PK in football and he's Shag and Shaqira. Oh, yeah.
PKs.
I wonder if he's accidentally sexted Shaqiri.
Next level pool player yeah
who do you
I get vibes of
of Ronaldo
that he
like cries
in bed
oh
climaxes
yeah
climaxes
Jack and he has a good old bubble after sex
Oh man, because I think he cries
I think he cries
because he knows that
he's wasted some of his DNA
Do you know what I mean?
He looks at himself in the mirror in his pants and he's like
Oh, I just denied
carrying on my lineage
by shooting one into this
so you think
he's crying
with like
what could have been
because
I think
you know
I guarantee
that he
has done
Pilates
purely
so he could
suck himself off
do you reckon
he would like
actually like
to be
Genghis Khan
yeah
just make sure
every spare
70% of the world
is a direct relation
to Cristiano Ronaldo
Cristiano Ronaldo
aye
aye mate
I can understand him
there's something about him
like
he's got dodgy charges
like
I don't know
I don't know where
you get information from
but information
just travels around the world
but
there's the
I'm going to
calendar information instead of calendar because I feel like it is information you can't go to
america that's why you wouldn't find him at the mls because if he lands in america that's when
he gets arrested oh that would be that'd be amazing man right you wouldn't need to do his
headshot there's always that unbelievable likeness that exists of him and his statue yeah it's ridiculous but why is that a thing
have you seen who's the
I don't really know basketball is it Dwayne
Wade that just got his
he just got his bronze statue
unveiled and it became like a meme
because it's like
maybe his bronze isn't
the metal that he's using
because none of them seem to be able
to manipulate the bronze
in the way that like
the Romans used to
manipulate marble
yeah
like just
I think
we've gone backwards
with statues
I think the problem
with Dwayne
I keep saying Dwayne
I think it was him
but he's got a beard
and I think
it just looks like
part of his face
it just looks like
he's got a massive chin
it's like a Johnny Bravo chin that he's got a massive chin it's like a
Johnny Bravo
chin that he's got
yeah yeah
there's not
there's not enough
like detail on it
to make it look like
a piano
it just looks like
it's his face
that would be devastating
I've
football chants
and that
what was I going to say
we were talking about
that guy chanting
right I cut in with a sweep I keep my story but you were doing what was I going to say we were talking about that guy chanting right
I cut in with a sweep
I keep my story
but eh
but you were doing
the back and forth
between America
I like excavating
the conversation
oh aye
have you seen eh
I need to show you
the clip man
because I'm not going
to do it justice
but there's the
there's a
a guy who calls himself
like an ultra
for one of the teams and he's he's just he's standing he's wearing a wee who calls himself like an ultra for one of the teams
and he's
he just
he's standing
he's wearing a wee scarf
and he's leading the
section in a
in a thing
but then he
he became like
known as like
scarf casual
scarf casual
yeah
people
business casual
people just kept
but I can't remember it
I'm gonna have to look it up
but
the chant was like
Toe curlingly embarrassing
Was it an American one?
An American guy
But American football
Even when the Portland Timbers score a goal
A guy dressed as a lumberjack
Pretends to cut a piece of wood in half
At the side of the pitch
They're a fucking embarrassment The European fans are fucking amazing a wooden half at the side of the pitch.
They're a fucking embarrassment.
The European fans are fucking amazing
but they just do
the same thing
regardless of what's
happening on the pitch.
Yeah.
They're singing the same song
they're going to the same beat
like there's no synergy.
Yeah.
I feel like we're
British football fans.
There's like
what happens on the pitch
dictates the crowd.
The crowd respond
to the football.
The football responds to the crowd and there is this fucking connection between the pitch dictates the crowd the crowd respond to the football the football responds to the crowd
and there is this
fucking connection
I'm always fascinated
see when you hear
a really funny chant
at a football game
I'm always fascinated
how that's
broke through
so like
one of the boys
in like the die hard
you know the die hard
crews that go to every game
I think forums
I reckon
do they turn up
I think they float them
on forums
or do they like get a lot of likes or whatever I wonder if it's like that's like their SNL I think forums I reckon I think they float them on forums and if anything
it gets a lot of likes
or whatever
I wonder if it's like
that it's like their SNL
they go in
to a pitch meeting
with some like
horrifically racist chant
and all the boys in the pub
go
that's actually really funny
we'll do that
you know
you know what I'd love to do
everyone had to be in on it
yeah
you know when
you know when you're getting like
sometimes your crowd
gets a bit quiet you're in jeopardy yeah when you're getting like sometimes your crowd gets a bit quiet
you're in jeopardy
you're leading by
fucking one goal
but you haven't had the
vial in about 15 minutes
the crowd sometimes
it's tense
it flattens the whole crowd
and then all of a sudden
you'll hear the fans
going
your support
your support
your support
is fucking shit
I would love to just
hear somebody going
no it's not
no it's not no it's not. No, it's not.
No, it's not.
It's really good.
It's just very ultra lame.
That's very American coded.
Just knowingly ultra lame response to that chant
because it would just disarm it immediately.
What was that one that went viral?
It was like Cambridge or something
went on this horrific thing of not scoring in 19 games or something.
The arrows.
And all the fans turned up with the arrows.
So good, man.
So good.
Because that's another very British thing is our ability to, like, have a laugh at ourselves and, like, take the piss out of it.
I feel like, you know, like, Americans, like, they wouldn't have that thing of they'd be like so angry at the players
so angry at the club
whereas it's so funny
to me that someone
had to make a hundred
high visibility
arrows
to go to the game
someone's taking
their time doing that
it's like that scene
in
we're gonna do it
I can't believe
we're doing this
Stevie's missus
has cut them out
on our cricket
you know
you see the scene
from Jungle
yeah I stayed up all night making arrows his missus has cut them out on our cricket I love them you see the scene from Django yeah
where he makes the kick
I stayed up all night
making arrows
yes
I haven't been
to a football game
in ages man
ages
just doing this job
I haven't been
for a long time
well you're going to be
in Newcastle
for summer main
I think
we were talking
about that
so in the in the new year I'm doing our Lemextra Newcastle shows Summer Main I think we were talking about that so in the
in the new year
I'm doing our
Lemextra Newcastle shows
and there's going to be
like you're going to do
a couple of them
aren't you
Elliot's going to do
a couple of them
and I've
scheduled them
to be right next
to Newcastle matches
it's so good
I can go back home
I've only been to
St James Park once
a few years ago
lads weekend
in Newcastle
and it was
we went to see
yous were playing Arsenal
I fear yous may have lost
it was
I was going to say
if it was the one
maybe 1-0
but
if it was the one
that we won 2-0
a couple of years ago
I was there
nah it was longer ago than that
probably 6-7 years ago
or something
em
cracking atmosphere
I love it man
I know it gets said a lot
but the one
one city
one team thing
is so nice
because like
coming from Scottish football
there's so much division
there's so much
yeah
in Glasgow and Edinburgh
there's three
yeah
there's three
in Glasgow
first division
second division
third division
em
oh right
I thought you were
going to be part of
Crystal
I was like three in Glasgow part of Crystal nah there's a it is man and it's like second division, third division. Oh right, I thought you wanted to be partner crystal.
I was like,
three in Glasgow,
partner crystal?
Nah,
it is man and it's like,
it's good but...
And then Manchester
and Liverpool,
like,
they're fucking,
they're divided.
Like,
fuck the audacity
of Manchester United,
Calumsell United,
there's nothing
United over Manchester.
It's like,
two of the biggest
clubs in the world
play out with Manchester.
I know it's early days
in the season but like
they really look like
they're really looking in serious trouble
serious trouble
it's mad
it's mad
I grew up with
the Fergie team
and like
everybody in Scotland was
all of a sudden a Man United a I know like a lot of people that
listen this podcast don't like football because they're Daniel sauce fans and
there's no diagram crossover yeah between that football play football and
but you couldn't have lived life without knowing about that Fergie era Man United where they just dominated The two teams that
dominated growing up were Fergie's
United and then
Wenger's
Arsenal team
Even Wenger's Arsenal team
didn't really dominate, they just pushed Man United
and landed a glove
once or twice
I guess Chelsea
We should hard pivot out to football because we have got stuff to talk about from the tour to the glove once or twice and then I guess Chelsea but I think we should
hard pivot out to football
because we have got
stuff to talk about
from the tour
because we've been like
finally got there
at the beginning
we've been going for
four days now
but day one was the one
where the wheels
came off the bus
oh my god man
because we've actually
corrected ourselves
from an early stumble
I think it's good to get
that logistical nightmares
out of the way
day one
because then you read
everything three times
before
yeah
it has helped hasn't it
aye
because we did the Berlin gig
and then
it was an intimate gig
and we got to have a pint
with everybody afterwards
so there was people
who'd been to Danny's show
who always bring
Spliff forward
to Danny's show
he bought Spliff this time
and I come in
super high.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And I'm like, should we book a taxi?
Well, I just sat and had a pint with a guy from Hartlepool.
Oh, aye, so you did, aye.
And you, at regular intervals,
came in looking more and more foreign.
Yeah.
What kind of foreign?
The eyes foreign.
Yeah, there we go.
But you just like
you were just coming in
more and more
like chilled out
you sat further
and further down
in your chair
every time
and then
we had to go to the hotel
because we still had
luggage because
it was a really tight flight
for like landing
and getting to the gig
so we didn't have time
to go to the hotel first
it was an airport hotel
and we didn't even have time
to go from the airport
to the hotel
to the gig we just took our luggage in to airport hotel and we didn't even have time to go from the airport to the hotel.
Yeah.
We just took our luggage in to Berlin just so we could take it out straight after.
But also,
we had time to go to the hotel.
Turns out we did.
Yeah,
because we got there
and you weren't even able to do your soundcheck
because a random woman with a laptop turned up.
Fucking hell.
Some cunt hijacked my soundcheck.
Yeah.
I was in the middle of soundcheck
and somebody had come in with a laptop and plug it in i would like so this is how this is how i discovered was there right i was
doing soundcheck and i just looked behind us and there was a picture of a young boy's face filling
the screen of this projector screen right yeah and i was just saying fucking hell is that me
backdrop for the show is that what we're gonna do and he's like oh you have to pay extra for that
or something and then it turns out this woman was plugging in a laptop so that like she could do a projector
driven show at a later date at this venue and then she just started sound checking yeah in the
middle of me sound check and i just stepped to one side and just went i guess i've just been
muscled yeah it was such a brit British reaction like because German people are so weird
and when I came
back I was like
I don't know if
I've put my foot
in it like if that
was like her dead
son or something
and she was
doing some kind
of project
I like
she's doing some
like kind of
fucking panorama
investigation for
the fucking
malpractice of
the doctors that
misdiagnosed a
child or whatever
and I'm just
like well could i hope this
is my background so that's why i kind of sheepishly stepped away because i i felt like i'd put my foot
in it we went backstage and there was like a weird backstage rider as well where there was two whole
baguettes all right two tubs of hummus yeah a few packets of crisps and like other like a bag of nuts
and some apples
and that
I recognised this
writer
and then
the women running the venue
came back and went
I'm really sorry
that we couldn't get
your bottle of gin
and you were like
what?
but there's gin
behind the bar
and he has some tokens
for the bottle
and I
because see
I didn't demand gin
and I didn't demand hummus
and I didn't demand M&M's.
No, it's a big bag of M&M's.
But I had somebody who demands all them things.
It's called Daniel Sloss.
And basically my agent had sent Daniel's rider through all the venues,
and I had to ring Molly and I and just go,
let's wait until we sell more tickets before we start treating myself
to a massive grocery shop.
Your exact words were,
your exact words were,
I don't want to come home to an M&M bill
that I can't pay.
But we lived like kings the first night.
We got the big rider.
Paid for it, may as well wire in.
Everything went in my bag
yeah that's
that's the difference
at the end of
Slossy's gig
he probably doesn't feel
like he needs to take
his rider home
yeah it's just a little
gift for the staff
a little gift for the staff
if anyone wants anything
we were like fucking
taking apples and that
so
so
I'm so high
fucking
in fact
the gig ended up being
fucking really nice.
It was fun.
Everyone was fun afterwards.
After a long day, it was nice to just have that pint
with the audience after,
not knowing if you're going to get the venue.
Totally.
Do sound check.
So I got out and got high with some of the guys
that we see every time I'm in Berlin with Daniel.
And then I got to book the uber i just
started typing in the name of the hotel and then it came up and i pressed on it yeah
there's a chain uh there's there's a there's more of them and we picked the one that was 25 minutes
in the opposite direction and we just got an uber for like 25 minutes and then we had to negotiate
with the uber driver to let us when we got to the other one realize like 25 minutes and then we had to negotiate with the Uber driver to let us
when we got to the other one
realise it wasn't our hotel
we had to negotiate
with the Uber driver
and be like
can you wait for us
to order another Uber
and then you accept it
did you know
he looked so
but like
when I offered him cash
I was like
because I've got like
I've got like
fucking 30, 40 euros
on his leg
yeah
do you want to just
take that
and then take it
to the hotel
and he looked
like it was a
sting operation
like a fucking
hidden camera
he was like
the secret shop
undercover boss
he was trying
to fucking
get me
Uber license
took off
he was probably
like not about
that life
yeah that was
a very Geordie
move to watch
you be like
we're in a
sticky situation
here mate
go and just
take some cash and sort it out oh yeah I be like we're in a sticky situation here mate go and just take some
cash and sort it out
oh yeah
I felt like cash
would have won
that situation
there's a man
there's a man
we have a call
with two people
I've got cash on us
we can get to our hotel
you've already got our
suitcases in the boot mate
just take us
but he was like
he absolutely
looked like he was
looking for hidden cameras
and then
he arranged that
phone to book the trip
and he was like
I'll try and catch the trip
yeah
and he did
to his credit
so then we drove
about half an hour
I'm bursting on a piss
you are so fucking
legs were crossed
you kept offering me
a fucking
drinking your bottle of water
and that's
it was so funny
you were doing your best
you were doing your best you can
I'm not going to be pissed off
with him
it's his fucking
first day of his tour
like fucking
I'm going to fall out with him on day one's his fucking first day of his tour like fucking I want to fall out
with him on day one
I've got two
I've got two weeks
with this guy
like I need to
like
I've already
ate his fucking
M&M's
but I was like
I need to
like you know
when you
like it's funny
for a while
you're like
oh I'm busting
oh am I going to make it
but then it gets serious
and you have to like
focus on your breathing
and like
like squeeze your bladder so
you don't piss your pants and we'd already pissed if if we just jumped in that uber and 15 minutes
into half an hour journey i would have been like mate i'm really sorry but i i need to pee i would
have jumped on the side of the road and pissed but because like we'd we'd ran out of like this
guy's goodwill so I was like
I'm just going to
wait till the hotel
so I'm like
proper clamping down
and then we get
to the hotel
and it's late
it's like half eleven
or something
and it turns out
that this fucking
hotel
there's no staff
after 10pm
so it's a
digital
like
it just looks like
an ATM
essentially
that you've got to
check yourself in
and it won't even open the doors to the hotel without you checking in oh but it would keep opening it's a digital like it just looks like an ATM essentially that you've got to check yourself in it
and it won't even
open the doors
to the hotel
without you checking in
that's right
oh but it would
keep opening the doors
back out to the outdoors
yeah
so like you can't move
so these doors
are like squeaking
open and closed
all the time
drafty as fuck
as soon as I see
the set up
I know that
I can't hold the piss
until this is fixed
I think I first
was going to get sent to you
when I saw that was
go piss on the street
we're not getting
invitations
but he was clearly
sitting on his phone
for a wee while
the Uber driver
when he dropped us off
and I never told you this
but it was so funny
so I ran to the end
because there was a field
at the end
so I start pissing
in the field
but then he starts
his engine up
and his full beam
headlights come on
and I just I was just like uh
you know like the that thing like third uh was it encounters of the third kind oh yeah i was just
like because i wasn't going to i was just dark with my cell like silhouette in my way like the
power the parody of that on um the simpsons yeah with mr burns So I was just a silhouette of a perfectly arse.
So not only did we make this guy take us on two trips,
but then he got a full view of me midstream.
I took honestly a minute and a half long piss.
It was phenomenal.
And by the time you come back, I still hadn't figured out that.
I was so high, but I was like, right, come on, focus, zone in.
So I've got this like fucking Google Drive
which like
it should be a spreadsheet
but it's a word document
it's a spreadsheet
within a word document
there's a lot of
a lot of information
the font's very small
it changes colours a lot
like it's a
and it's because
it's a sheet
like on a phone
you have to slide
to view the whole thing
so there's information
and then you've got to slide
but you hold on too hard
and you highlight some stuff it's it's in the a phone you have to slide to view the whole thing so there's a slide but you hold on too hard and
you highlight some stuff it's it's um in the in the current information age that we're in like
there's a better way to communicate information than the way we use as a system for touring
so we we took one look at this and decided that in our state the easiest option was to phone our
agent at midnight and wake her up yeah and bless her like she got out of bed
aye and like she's got a bad name she lives in a house with stairs yeah and she had to fucking like
i had to listen to her like struggling to get up the stairs to get to my computer to open a file
that we've got on my phone and then she read the number and as she was reading the note i realised
that that was on the thing yeah you know what know what, though? I had typed that number in.
Yeah.
But it had full, so it's got name and reservation number, right?
So I typed in Humphreys, and I typed in the number that's on the drive, right?
So we hadn't rang it straight away.
We'd give it a shot.
Yeah, we'd give it a try.
So it's booking.com reservation number, right?
And it had like four digits, full stop, four digits, full stop, four digits,
like 16 digits with full stop, four digits, full stop, four digits, like 16 digits for full stops every four.
And because the keypad
had symbols on it.
Yeah,
we were putting the full stops in.
That implied that the full stop
was part of it.
Yeah.
So we put the full stops in.
It's such bullshit,
man.
You shouldn't be able to check
in a hotel
because there's no staff in it.
you know,
is it like,
is it all capitals?
Is it my second name?
Yeah,
yeah.
Like,
is it just a capital
and then lowercase for the rest of it? Like my second name yeah yeah like is it just a capital and then
lowercase
for the rest of it
like yeah
yeah like
there's too many variables
to be going
type in your name
and password here
yeah
there's just too
man
I usually struggle
if I have to log into
something that I've had
an account for for years
of course man
and I have to reset it
because it needs it
and then
I was starving
but I knew
I brought
with me like a
good job I had loads of
nuts and M&M's
you'll be bagging it
yeah you selfishly
took all of the
of the rider
that you paid for
so but I knew
I had like a wee
ramen bowl
thing in my bag
like I always chuck
one of them in my case
because there's always
stuff like that
where you go
I haven't had time
to grab food
I'll get back to the hotel room
I can at least have
something before bed
because it
start looking around
the fucking hotel room
it's got a hair dryer
in it
it's got this
it's got that
no kettle
it must have had a kettle
somewhere
I was raging
no I turned the place
I was opening drawers
did you check the drawer
nah I was opening the drawer
because it was like
an overnight travel hotel
aye
it was really stripped back
so I was like because it was actually that Harley pool guy you were talking to and I was like oh overnight travel hotel aye it was really stripped back so I was like
because it was actually
that Harley pool guy
you were talking to
and I was like
oh we're staying at the
fucking whatever hotel
and he was like
yeah
spent all your money
on your rider didn't he
aye
got two baguettes
sticking out your back
like fucking Deadpool
but aye
no kettle
but then
I was like
oh this is a disaster man
I'm so hungry
there's nothing
you can't even go down
to the foyer
and buy something
because there's no staff
we're in the middle of nowhere
I wouldn't even consider
what you did next
as an option you know
so I went to wash my hands
or I went to brush my teeth
and then realised
that the hot tap
was like
ripping hot
like I couldn't keep
my hands under it all the way hot so I went oh that feels hot tap was like ripping hot like I couldn't keep my hands under it
on all the way hot
so I went
oh that feels hot enough
for noodles
having a pot noodle
with the hot water
with the hot taps
mate
it worked
so I was like
right it's probably
going to take a while
to get the noodles soft
so I did it
then jumped in the shower
and I came in my shower
it was fucking perfect
it was ready
and I sat down and i looked
down and realized there's no cutlery in the room okay mate i know i actually didn't use my room
key i didn't have one it's a fucking code lock it was a code i so we didn't even have a room key
um what i ended up using this mate this was the cctv footage if there's one in the room i doubt
it but would be the saddest piece of fucking video you've ever seen in my life.
So I came at the shower,
just put my pants on and I was like,
oh,
there's a lot of like liquid in this.
So I'm not going to put any clothes on in case I splash.
Looked around and realized there was no stuff.
There wasn't even like a pen.
I mean,
if there was a couple of pens,
I could have fashioned some chopsticks or something.
All there was, I was even trying to think think like could i use my toothbrush or something all there was was a paper cup with a wee paper lid on it for in the bathroom for you to put your
toothbrush in and i was like what the fuck can i do with that so what i ended up doing was like
like rolling up a little taco shell rolling up the thing like a taco shell and scooping it in my mouth but then the problem was that the the liquid
the broth from the ramen i would scoop up but then it would slide at the back end of the taco
so the first mouthful i'd i splash it all over the bed and so i was like i put it down i've got
one like mouthful of noodles in my mouth i'm
in my pants my wee belly's hanging over my pants on the edge of the bed i have to wet the towel
i soak the towel and i'm trying to get the like red fucking broth off the bed and all right and
i was just like this and then there's a mirror so i can see myself i mean this is so fucking sad
and then i realized that that was the only towel in the room as well so in the morning i had to wash myself and just avoid the fucking spicy broth corner of the towel but while you
were doing that and um i'd got in the shower right took took my jeans off i wasn't doing
i took took everything off including my glasses right yes had a shower come in and then was like
right i'll pack my jeans into my bag I'll put out some travel clothes
like trying to be
organised for tomorrow
put my shit on charge
and in the middle of that
I'm just like
where the fuck's my glasses
and I couldn't find
my glasses fucking anywhere
I'd come in the room
with my glasses on
and then just couldn't
like I was in the room
with my glasses on
I took them off
before my shower
and now they're nowhere
I had my fucking room
upside down
looking for these glasses
I'd put them on top of my jeans
and then coming to the shower
I folded up my jeans
pretty much rolled my glasses
up into my jeans
and put them in my bag
so he was fucking
splashing around
and I was fucking
I was on my hands and knees
looking under the bed
for a pair of glasses
that were in my bag
and then I slept in
in the morning
and you woke me up
with a phone call
and you were like
I'm in the taxi
I was like oh no
so I had the world's quickest shower wiped myself up with a phone call and you're like i'm in the taxi i was like oh no so i had the world's quickest
shower wipe myself up with a ramen towel shut my suitcase and we're both in the taxi again
if that's the worst day it's a decent tour because i've had worse days than that on tour
normally they become fucking first one yeah but that was we just i feel like we made all the
mistakes we needed to make but all the hotels have been good since yeah today was so good like so funny like our flight
to dublin was delayed uh a couple hours in which we didn't really care about yeah because i'm
catching up on our cane which is and we were only on like a super tight time schedule
now there was people on that flight who like they had their they'd missed their connecting flights
and that's so tensions were starting to run a bit high and i'll be honest the airline guest staff were like you could tell
there would be a wee bit rc with people and that wee bit short and uh there's this one guy that i
could see his three rows down and he was getting livid like clearly like he realized he's missed
his connecting flight and he was starting to become a problem and he had a wee red wine
one of the wee bottles
of red wine
and nothing was complimentary
so he paid for it
and he got up
to go to the toilet
for a piss
but in that time
the clean up
person had come
I think they saw
like that much
left in his wine
and just picked it up
and binned it
so he came back
and started complaining
but I had my headphones on
but he was getting animated
I could see him going like
what is this why is he going like that he's playing his wine right so the woman was like right right right
and she went away she was like i'll go get you another wine but then she went to hit go get wine
and we hit really bad turbulence so for everybody was bound to their seat for 20 minutes so i could
see he was like fizzing like he was about to get his replacement wine and now
everybody's had to go and sit down again
that bit of turbulence was fucking naughty as well
that was a rollercoaster
that was a scary flight today
it was three or four patches
of horrible, makes you realise
like I am
I am an atheist but as soon as that
as soon as your belly goes on a plane
you go oh please
but so then he was getting more and more pissed off, eventually she brought over I am an atheist, but as soon as that, as soon as your belly goes on a plane, you go, please.
But,
so then he was getting more and more pissed off.
Eventually she brought over his wee wine,
calmed him down a bit.
And then a different guy came 10 minutes after that to get,
like,
we were about to start the descent.
So he came and,
you know, he was grabbing all the stuff.
And the guy was,
he had a big bin bag for everybody's rubbish.
Gash bag, you can't let me. Yeah, a gash bag. A gash bag, that's what you can't let me guy was he had a big bin bag for everybody's rubbish Gash bag you can't let me know
Aye aye aye
a gash bag
Gash bag
that's what you can't let me know
the trade eye
he had a big
he had a big gash bag
gash bag
and then
he was also carrying
above the gash bag
it was like
Aer Lingus
branded like
tubs
it must be for
it looked like
maybe what they keep
like the wee milks
or something in
but they were plastic Tupperware
and he was
carrying
he was carrying
like four of them stacked up on each other
and it just so happened
that that wee guy that had been shouting
at the women he turned round and the top one
toppled off the tower and fucking hit the
boy right in the head and he was raging
kicked him off again.
Little angry bald man.
It doesn't take much to wind up a little
bald man, does it? But little bald man
are already ready to go.
They're already wound tight.
Life's hit them hard.
I used to work, like, I've worked a bunch of
stuff, but I used to work occasionally doing
construction stuff. I remember being
on a building site and there was a wee spark that was winding everybody up a wee ultra shin that was
just like it was like five foot five every story ended in him knocking someone out and someone who
would uh yeah and it was like there was a one of the joiners was like this absolutely he's his own
hype man yeah yeah exactly get his reputation right like every story he was the hero
of his own story
and it was like
everyone was just
getting sick of
working with him
and one of the
one of the
joiners
was like an actual
lump like six foot four
but like gentle giant
and
I remember
he just shut that
wee sparky up
one day
he was like
see if us big cunts
were half as aggressive
as you wee cunts there'd as aggressive as you wee cunts
there'd be none of you
wee cunts left
amazing
it's really poetic as well
I would stamp the lorry
as a little fucking
mini genocide
yeah
oh what would you call that
a mid genocide
a mid genocide a mid-genocide genocide genocide
it does it sounds like a resort uh but i and but it's so funny that like
because the first guy the first the guy that dropped the thing didn't know about the wine
debacle so i just think it's so funny to accidentally drop a piece of Tupperware on a guy's head and then for the guy to go mental.
Just instantly get mental.
He doesn't realise that you're the straw that broke the camel's back.
He's been pissed off by everyone along the way.
And you just come along and just slam down.
And he was bald, the wee guy as well.
He was a wee bald guy.
So he better dunk.
And I saw it
it was the corner
like
top of his head
but
I was so tempted
getting off the plane
to just like
lay a wee slap
on his wee bald head
just as like
as the final straw
just keep picking on him
just get right
everyone chuck a little bit
of something on him
yeah yeah yeah
just niggle away
and grind him down
he's gonna go
and put a bat at his wife.
He's not, he's missed his connection.
Yeah.
He's busy swinging from behind the bathroom door
in one of these hotel rooms.
So good, man.
I've seen some mad shit in airports and planes.
You're catching people at their worst.
Oh yeah, aye.
Aye.
I was missed the day because I was Mr. Dacus I was like
I was having a fucking like
text argument
aye
regarding business
aye
with someone
while on a flight
he was trying to start a gang
he was trying to start a gang
he was trying to start a gang
and people weren't interested
because he didn't clamp cars anymore
and I just
I actually just identified that like
I haven't had a coffee
all day
because I'm fucking
whitening my teeth
yeah
so I'm wearing these
like fucking
like rubber
retainers
that you put little
like
like dabs of
like bleach in
and rub it in
and make sure it doesn't
get on your gums
and make sure you
don't swallow any
because you'll die
just like
just got
so
had that
meaning that I can't have
coffee
red wine
all the good shit
beetroot
yeah
it's very disconcerting
when you're grumpy
from not having coffee
and you turn around
and see you putting
a gum shield in
my eyes looking
ready to go
that grumpy man's
got a lovely smile
and then I
I was like on a flight flight, that was late.
I was just like, oh, just self-diagnose.
Deal with that tomorrow.
That's not something for you to get angry about.
I was actually proud of you.
You identified, you were like,
I'm really angry and pissed off at the minute.
We should not do this podcast as soon as we get to the hotel.
That would have just been me winching
about that fucking text conversation. That's how that would have been yeah it wouldn't have been a fun
one i was like give us a new uh like if you want i'll meet you in the gym but i'm gonna go for a
run then we went to the gym and just listened to that guy always misses we've been uh we've been
good at that in that we're fucking like the wheels come off the bus day one and went rh
we'll just like be going to the gym and looking after ourselves we've actually been on it
we've been alright
like
em
especially in this
line of work man
it's the only job
in the world
you get to work
and the people
who've hired you
ask you if you want a pint
aye
yeah
it's great isn't it
it's mad
so the fact that we're like
aye
the wheels are
vaguely stable
we have drank
every single day
but
moderately
yeah like
an airport pint
and a pint at the gig
aye
kind of level
steady away
but we've been
at the gym
and that
and like
we haven't seen
we haven't been
touristic
in any respect
in four years
it's been really
embarrassing
how little we've seen
I mean
to be fair
you saw plenty of Berlin
I showed you Berlin
Connor
I really did there's not a bit of Berlin that you left to be fair you saw plenty of Berlin I showed you Berlin Connor I really did
there's not a bit of Berlin
that you left unturned
you're sick of Berlin
you know like Berlin
is such a sex positive city
I reckon that guy
thought that we thought
maybe he was some kind of
fake taxi situation
we were just going to
keep hiring him
like by fair four
he was like
fine I'll come back
and suck his ass
because he was gay
wasn't he
I don't know
I didn't pick up on that
did I pick up on it
nah
I picked up on that
he was gay
my gay doll
was flashing
with a text
I think you picked up
on that because
he helped us
with our suitcases
this guy must be gay
he's being nice to us
I didn't pick up
on that
but I've been
told I've got
terrible gay
dour before
have you
aye
by this guy
that was
shagging me
up the arse
did you get
let into a
gay bar
that a gay
person didn't
get let into
did I remember
that right
oh yeah
you've been to
Berlin before
yeah in Berlin
I was almost
going to get in, Larry Dean
got held back
for not looking gay
Come on in you get
One of our regulars
You're not getting into those clubs unless you're wearing
fetish gear though
It's impossible
I'm only 30 but I'm a I, I, look, I'm only 30,
but I'm like,
I'm a prude.
Aye.
Aye.
I'm a prude,
man.
Like,
especially for like,
being a comedian and that,
like I'll talk about sex on stage and stuff,
but like,
there's certain things where I'm like,
I don't need to see it,
man.
Aye.
I don't need to see it.
Oh,
like,
like,
I,
I think I'm not a prude until I hear a gay guy's talking about sex.
You just realise you're a homophobic prude
maybe I'd have
more women
talk like that
aye
yeah yeah
that graphic
oh
the way
because like
of course it's like that
it's two dudes
talking about sex
there's no
there's no filter on it
yeah yeah
nobody's gonna cap that
already then
I'll bring it back
of course
of course
yeah
that's like that's just like a live group chat yeah happening like yeah yeah nobody's gonna cap that already then I'll bring it back of course of course yeah so
that's like
that's just like a live
group chat
yeah
happening like
um
but I
I also like
I'm always like
I've been in
gay bars like
with my fiance
and that
because I don't care
what anyone says man
there's a
weird like
section of guys
who like
you went to a gay bar
mate some of the where you're the guys we're trying to avoid some of guys who are like you went to a gay bar mate
some of the best
where you're the guys
we're trying to avoid
some of the best nights
out you'll have
that no one knows
how to party
the music's good
they stay up longer
and everyone's just
in a better mood
and do you know what
every now and then
if someone throws you
a wee glance
and tries to flirt with you
you go
suck him off
aye
it's the least you can do
I'm not getting anything
out of it
you know what I mean
I kind of made him
wipe my teeth
aye
yeah
yeah
have you had a coffee
today
I'm getting tasty
coming through
but I've been like
told by
gay people
oh you know that guy
was like really
hitting on you
and I'm like
oh I just thought
he was sound
just having
a conversation
with a nice man
how many of you
met at Honours
I kind of pick up on it
I'm not good at it
I just assume
people are nice
I remember
me and my mates
my mate used to go
out with a girl
who was a manager
at a gay club
so a couple of times
at the end of a night
we'd go there
and wait for her
to finish her shift
and she'd like sort us out we drink so we're waiting and stuff and it's famous gay bar in
edinburgh called cc blooms and there's over the road for it as a chippy so it was like kicking
out time half three there's we're all smart i'm like 19 or 20 we're all smashed so we go over the
road so it's just the last few people filing out of the gay clubs
and like us
and a few other people
from pubs
and there's one Chippy
so we all go over
to the Chippy
and
we're chatting away
and this gay guy
starts like
really aggressively
kind of flirting with me
and we're chatting
and the Chippy and Al
he's like
last chance this
you just want to
get home alone
at 19 as well
I was such a this is apparently in the get home alone at 19 as well I was such
this is apparently
in the 93rd minute
at 19 I was such
like a little twink
as well
I just left
high school
I just lost
a load of weight
and I know
he was looking at me
with hunger in his eyes
and
because I was
with my mates
I was just like
winding the boy up
a bit
like
leading the man
but it was like funny
in the chippy
but then
this was when
so I had
I had a
like a sausage supper
I bet you did
and we were
standing inside
and there was
someone had left
half a sausage supper
on the windowsill
of the chippy
and the guy came over
and he was like
let me out
come on
give me a bit
give me a bit and I was like nah mate I've just fucking paid for my food leave me alone and then
he like turned his back and he's like give me a bit and i've picked up the sausage off the man
and he's like oh it's freezing and i went i mean i've just picked it up done it's so funny yeah
it's just been lying on that window so give him a little bit of cold sausage
that scared him off but um just when he went home alone
nah but I've never understood that
it's such a weird macho thing to be like
I'll never step foot in a gay club
it's actually quite childish
it's ridiculous
you've still got your school yard
you think you're so
irresistible
that the second you step foot in a gay bar
you're going to be fighting guys
I probably would still
that's probably what's going to happen
so yeah we've got to wrap this up now
because we've got a flight in the morning
we've had an hour
