Guys, it's topical coronavirus content.
It's quarantine content.
It's...
Quintent.
It's the coronavirus special.
Wash your fucking hands.
Oh, my God, everyone's dying.
No, they're not dying.
Oh, they might be.
By the time you listen to this, everyone might be dying.
Some people are dying.
This has been bad taste already.
It's pretty mental, guys.
Coronavirus.
I'm not going to make a joke about...
the beer or anything like that, because actually people are dying and that first thing I said,
was not a joke. I just realized the ramifications of it.
Pretty fucking scary.
Pretty scary time.
I'm currently waiting to see which of my tours are cancelled, if they're all cancelled or if they're not,
which is good for me because I've just had three months off and I'll have another three months off,
which is six months off unpaid, unless you all buy a T-shirt from H-TTP.
is it colon?

so it motherfucking says
the downbeat
Hopefully there's some in stock
You might be able to hear
Cats fighting
Basically new year, new me
No dogs
Now there's cats
Yeah basically I've got
six months off work probably
And so of you
So I'm not actually gonna beg you
to buy a T-shirt
But you know
you got that cash
lying around from
God, it's going to make a
grandparent joke there.
Dodged a bullet there.
If you've got
the cash lying around from
a grandparent
birthday present and not
a grandparent
bereavement
dividend, then
you know, swing it my way.
It gives a little bit of fucking dough
which are because I'm fucked.
Getting divorced as well, that's cheap.
So,
Anyway, I'm doing a Q&A.
Everyone, this week I'm going to try and do loads of podcasts
because everyone's home from tour.
So I'm going to try and get a few people in bands that have had their tours cancelled,
which is almost everyone.
So I'll try and get the most interesting people,
and we'll talk about how fucked our lives are.
And I think by the time you listen to this,
maybe everyone else's lives.
It's pretty fucking savage.
Little PSA, if you are young and fit and healthy and you've got a bit of a sniffle,
don't go outside because you're probably going to kill
granddad.
I've seen so many people sharing
like self-isolation is the key
on their story and then in the next shot
it's like them and 11 people at a bar like
woo coronavirus buddy!
You're going to kill motherfuckers.
I went to the gym the other day
which I shouldn't have done or should I've done
I don't know it was before the lockdown
before the zombies hit
and there was no fucking hand soap
after all this
Not a single drop of hand soap.
There's a cat that's going to drink my coffee.
I'm drinking a lovely coffee from a SQ2.
Square, no, SQ1.
SQ2 is the Sona drum kit.
Square one, coffee roasters.
They were nice enough to send me some stuff.
That's not a plug, but it's very nice.
I really like it, and they sent me a big box of stuff,
and it'd be really nice if they sent me another one.
We're going to do a Q&A.
What else should I talk about?
I'm actually in a different location.
I'm in Glasgow, which is fucking.
sick.
I'm staying at the Girlie Models my podcast merch,
which some people would call the definition of shitting where you eat.
But guess what?
I've been shitting here and I've been eating here.
So we'll see how that goes.
What else is new?
There's not really much.
I've been paying out the ass for a practice room
because obviously I don't have a room up here.
Playing on shitty gear,
but still trying to get those chops in.
And then this sort of up in the air tour getting cancelled thing,
I'm like, I can't really be asked to go and keep the chops up
because potentially I might not be going on tour until June.
So I'll just get good at drums in May, maybe.
May, is that before June? May, April, May.
Yeah, oh no. Yeah, no, I've got April as well.
I'll do a bit of practicing April.
Can't count, can't count the months.
Memes are doing pretty good in this time, though.
I do recommend a good meme.
site, maybe two or three meme sites to get you through this because they're real savage at
this time of year. I'm going to say this time of year like there's a global catastrophe once a year.
Sort of like an anti-Christmas where everyone dies. I've got to stop talking about death.
Just thought about death for a minute there. Sorry for the dead air. That's a bit much.
I'll start doing a Q&A and then I'll probably ramble on some other stuff. Thanks to everyone
that asked questions, but
if you ask the question
that's already been answered on a Q&A episode,
then fucking go and listen to the podcast, you idiot.
Because you might have already been answered before
and your questions already been answered.
Wasting my time and therefore yours
and everyone else's time because they're listening to this part
of the podcast, which is absolutely worth nothing.
Now, first question from Jonathan Allman,
who actually puts on, straight from the path shows
in Glasgow.
very topical.
Would I fuck a ghost?
That is the sort question that we are after.
We're not after.
What a drumstick head do you think
creates the best rebound from these symbols?
We're after, would I fuck a ghost?
And there's many caveats to fucking a ghost.
There's, you know,
are we assuming it is a spectre
that I can see, sort of like a,
a white
like a grey
seethru object
in which case it would depend
what they look like
because
it just still
it still needs to be a babe
but if it was like a spooky babe
then yeah I'm into it
like a ghoul
oh hang on
gool is
now we're getting into
ghoul territory
I wish I could have
I mean I could actually
just phone Jonathan Ormond right now
let's get some clarity
let's get him on the line oh this is a good episode
all right
hi mate um this is on the podcast
so don't cancel yourself
um sick i just need some clarification
about this would i fuck a ghost situation
like what do they what do they look like is it like a see-through spectre kind of vibe
or is it a completely oh he's already got an answer
so basically because like it's just energy so you can't
seen it. Like, I'll give you the scenario that I've definitely, we've definitely spoke about before
with other people. So you're kind of like, you're sleeping, the till in, you wake up and like,
you're like basically getting jerked off. Invisible. You can't see it, but it feels really good.
Yeah. So, where's the question here? Am I going to take a free jerk off from nothing? Absolutely.
Yeah. That's it. There's no, like, I thought you were going to give me, like, I thought you were going to
give me like it she looks like slimer or it's like oh it's Megan fox but she's covered in
ectoplasm and not yours yeah well I was going to say the same thing no I mean you can you can
play out if you want if you want to you want to fuck mrs. slimer think of it as mrs slimer
well if it's invisible okay if it's invisible my answer is absolutely yes always if it is
mrs slimer yeah it's just a laugh in it I feel like at this
stage in my life, I'm fucking any ghost
you throw out me.
Give me a big fucking dude ghost.
Give me the two guys from
Muppets Christmas Carol and I'll bang
bow from the mouth.
Anyway, thanks for that.
Look forward to this being on the internet.
Goodbye.
That's sort of
that's like, what do they call that?
It's like real radio that is.
Do I have to get clearance for that from
somewhere or other?
Right, that was question one.
The answer is, yeah, fuck.
Any ghost that you can throw at me.
So any ghosts out here in this flat,
when you come gosh me off tonight?
Insane podcast already.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha.
This one's funny and topical from Paul Hamer.
Or it might be Paul Hamer, L.A.
Might be from L.A.
Or it might be Paul.
Pol ha.
Paul Hamerlha.
I don't know.
Anyway, true financial side of being a drummer in the metal scene in 2020.
fuck knows at the moment.
He says, is Stray is enough to make a living?
Or do you also have to give lessons or I don't know,
sell some down re-merge?
So, yes, I could live off stray just about.
But it would be you need a side hustle to live comfortably.
I'm lucky enough that, I mean, not right now.
right now my outgoings are absolutely unbelievable.
But usually, and when I'm back on my feet, my outgoing shouldn't be that bad.
And I've spent the last maybe 10 years making sure all of my outgoings are so low that if I'm ever in like a time of crisis or not having any work, I can still survive.
But that means like not taking excessive credit cards and stuff like that.
But right now, I'm a bit fucked and everyone's a bit fucked.
so I really do rely on the podcast merch
I guess exclusively
for the next however long until touring
doesn't until touring gets back
which is terrifying me just talking about it out loud
and I do feel really bad for everyone else
in bands that do not have a side hustle
and I imagine
in a positive sense,
I reckon that you're going to get a lot more people
who don't do live streams or Twitches or whatever
being like, fuck, I've got to get on this.
And you might have some of your favourite musicians doing it.
Or maybe even doing podcasts.
Good luck being better than this one, motherfuckers.
But you might get more content out of this
because people are desperate.
It's going to be like a cyber version of begging,
which actually might be quite good for content.
And I was thinking about this the other day.
When this is all over,
the first few shows back are going to be insane
because everyone is going to be like,
they're going to have blue balls from not moshing and shit.
It's going to be crazy.
And like the community that gets built by crisis
will be, I hope, unbelievable.
If we haven't all murdered each other over fucking,
toilet roll, which by the way, I went to go get some toilet roll earlier because we couldn't get any
it meant three different supermarkets. I went to a corner shop to get some toilet roll and the
woman looked at me like I'd just come in and shit on the floor and then not wipe my ass. I was like,
what? She was like, we have a two person, two per person limit. I was like, yeah, I'm buying one
pack that has nine rolls in it. What do you want me to do? Split the fucking pack up. Anyway,
and then I walked down the street, about half a mile down the street, close.
touching this toilet roll and everyone was looking at me like I was some sort of panic buyer when
really I just wanted to wipe my ass and maybe blow my nose. As you can hear, I probably
need to blow my nose. Jesus. Let's do some more. Okay, question two. Why is death heaven a good
band? And that is from Moore's tattoo. And we'll actually segue that into that talk about that sweet
new tap from Moore's, which is what someone said. He's asking me why deaf heaven's,
a good band because he's an elite black metal guy.
And they don't like Death Heaven because
Death Heaven's basically hipsters.
But I'm a massive hipster.
And also, Death Heaven sort of sounds a bit like
my bloody Valentine, like, emo-y,
sad boy music plus black metal.
And that is absolutely every single bit of my personality in one band.
And the lyrics are very, very good.
if you don't listen to death heaven
I suggest
even if you don't like black metal
because it's like
the production is still pretty raw
but there's a little bit more of a shine on it
there's emo moments
and there's absolutely no racism
which you cannot really be sure about
in most black metal
there's always one guy in the band
that's like oh you try that listen to this new
black metal band and everyone's like yeah yeah they're sick
and then a photo comes up of a guy
at a party wearing a Ku Klux Klan costume
and it's like
Oh, come on.
Couldn't you have just went as Bowser or something?
Right, everyone else?
Bowser's quite a hard costume to have, actually.
Mario.
Wario, even.
If you're determined to be bad, then be Wario.
Don't be the KKK.
Or Waluigi.
The often forgotten Waluigi.
And how was that tattoo?
It was actually one of the most painful tattoos I've ever had in my life.
I've got the bit between your collarbone and your neck tattooed.
It's not really a trap.
There's no muscle there.
It's just flesh.
I didn't take any painkillers or use any kind of thing.
Usually I'll take at least a few prescription strength painkillers
that I don't have the prescription for.
But in this case, I didn't.
And it was very naughty.
And then I drove four and a half hours after it.
I seem to only enjoy getting tattooed if I can drive for five hours afterwards.
And that makes it way, way worse.
Well, I've still got my headphones on.
I can hear myself twice.
You didn't need to know that.
I recently can be told I'm quite wheezy,
so hopefully that's not coming through the microphone.
You'll all message me now and be like,
yeah, you are wheezy, that's just part of your thing.
I thought I was a picture of health.
Next question.
From at humming inside.
Did I ever have,
did you ever have anxiety when playing?
Have I ever had anxiety when playing?
like what's wrong with my kick, etc.
Yes, the answer is all the fucking time.
All it takes is one little stick drop or mistake
or time where I haven't filmed like I've really warmed up
and I spend the rest of the gig having anxiety.
And it did use to carry on outside of the gig
for the rest of the night until the next gig
until I started realizing this isn't a flex.
but there are some bands who are really, really big
and their drummer's really not very good
and no one cares.
They play to like 15,000 people
with a pretty shitty drummer
and everyone still loves them.
So then once I got that into my head,
I was like, no one really cares what I sound like
or can realise what I sound like
except for maybe like 5% of the room.
Most people just care that I'm up there
having a little rock
and for most time
I just look at the singer anyway
not nowadays
because I'm an international
fucking legend
thanks to the Downbeat podcast
www www www, the Downbee.
at, buy a shirt, buy a shout, buy a shout, by a shout, by a shout, by a shout,
please, please, or a hoodie.
Hoodies are very expensive to make, actually
let's stop talking about my clothing
and what's wrong with my kick job
I think about that all the time because it's terrible
yet here we are.
Question T underscore M underscore Allen.
I'm guessing that's Timothy Michael Allen.
Or it is Alan, trademark, but backwards.
How do you motivate yourself when all you want to do is poop and play PS4?
Now, Alan or TM, let's call you...
Hang on, Tim Allen, from Home Improvement.
Tim Allen.
We've got Tim Allen on the show, guys.
Anyway, Kim,
I'm glad you've taken a bit of time out from your workshop.
How do I motivate myself when all I want to do is poop and play PS4?
The thing is,
I don't really want to poop.
That's not,
it's not like a big pastime of mine, pooping.
And I'm weird with PlayStation 4
and games in general
when I was a kid
probably from about six
until I would say
13
all I did was play video games
just it was all I cared about and all I did
and then when I got into drumming
more
I just didn't have one
I think Dreamcast was the last one I had
and I was like now fuck this because I could see
that it was eating into my creativity
and my free time to
play drums so I actually just didn't buy one and I was just too obsessed with drums in my free time
to do anything and that's probably when I got good at the drums and then I did actually the opposite
thing which was when I got to a comfortable enough level that I when I'm off tour I've got loads
of free time that's when I actually bought a PS4 so I bypassed like PS3 I got a PS4 just to kill some time
and still now, unless it's a multiplayer game, I just don't care.
I don't play single player games because I think I could be doing something productive here,
whether or not, this is going to sound like I'm one of those self-help people's,
but whether or not it's like reading something that's going to help with,
not I'm not going to say business, because fuck a business book,
but like reading a book that I'm interested in,
or usually just working on drum stuff, or nowadays the podcast,
or even just networking with people to sort out future episodes of the podcast,
that's what I do with my downtime.
And if I do have maybe an hour or two, it will be a multiplayer game.
And it has to be with a party on.
And I kind of just see that as socializing in a weird way.
I'll do FIFA with Sam.
You know about Derby Day.
I'll do Derby Day with Sam.
Which I would do all day if I could, but I can't.
Grant Anderson says, where does Vinny Paul rate on your drummer scale?
Not that highly.
Amazing drummer, did a lot of stuff.
Is dead.
But no.
What's the most awkward experience when getting tattooed?
The most awkward experience you've ever had when getting tattooed?
That's by Finn Gillian.
Probably on my left arm, which some of it's pretty shit.
it.
But most of it's done by the same guy.
And when I first got tattooed by him, he was like,
do you mind if I do a couple of lines of coke?
It was a bit awkward because I was like, well, yeah,
I guess I do mind because you're going to be on drugs
and putting ink into my arm, which will be there forever.
Anyway, I was a kid, so I let him do it,
smashed it, got a really good tattoo out of it.
And then the next time he was like the same thing.
Do you mind if I rail a couple of lines?
I was like, yeah, fucking fire away.
Anyway, we got like three quarters of his sleeve done, pretty fucking sick.
And then this one time he didn't have any coke, fucked it.
It was dog shit.
And I've got this big dog shit fucking crap Medusa thing on my arm
from the one time he didn't have any cocaine.
So I can only assume that maybe he had a cocaine problem.
And I caught him on a cum down.
Anyway, that's on my arm forever.
So don't, I would probably not get to telly by someone while they're doing cocaine.
Or make sure they're always doing cocaine.
That's the rules.
Okay, next question.
From Dana or Dana Heisel.
Heissel?
Sorry.
What are some of the things you've sacrificed to become the drummer you are today?
Number one, an entire marriage.
Number two, a dog.
number three
various friends
and family members
number four
that's not
it's fucking everything
you can't be a musician
that tour six months out of the year
and expect
to have a normal life
people will come and go
people can't handle it
even if they think they can handle it
eventually they won't be able to handle it
And that's just a part and party, part and party, part and parcel of being, being a fucking rock star, bro.
No, like being a travelling musician, people aren't going to be, and even you're going to change as a person when you're off tour.
I'm fucking miserable when I'm off tour, usually, quite a lot of the time.
That can't be that handy for friendships.
I've definitely lost a lot of friendships.
everything.
Do you answer your question?
What are some of the things
you've sacrificed
to become the drumming you are today?
The answer is absolutely everything,
including physical health
and mental health,
because my back is kind of,
my hip is kind of fucked
and it's definitely from drumming
and not the gym.
But I wouldn't change it for the fucking world
because other than during times
of global pandemic,
it's the best job in the world.
Right now, it's the worst fucking job in the world.
But I'm doing a podcast for you
to just, you know,
sail on through.
There's a lot of people who've been messaging me about
What's your favourite gear?
What symbols do you play and why?
I go, go, go, go, go, go, dot, do.
Right.
I'm always playing the same shit.
In my videos, sometimes I play a different set.
But if you go on the Miner Symbols website,
I'm always playing that set up
because that's my favourite symbol set up.
Favorite heads are always the same.
Favorite drumsticks are always the same.
Everything's always the same.
I like what I like.
I might as well just reel it off.
Not really my symbols off.
Vicfer of rock and my favourite sticks.
Evans G2s.
Oh, I like the UV2.
Oh shit.
Actually, yeah.
Fuck, it has changed.
You're right.
You're right.
Evans Uv2s on Tom's and a ST on the snare.
That's about it.
That's about it.
That's about it.
How fast can you break down your kit and load?
out.
Depends what's on offer.
If we're going to in and out pretty fucking fast.
If it's a 19 hour drive to
fucking Utah,
probably pretty slowly.
And if it's when I've got Timmy or Josh,
my two drum techs,
then not at all when they'll do it.
Timmy's actually the fastest motherfucker going.
I think he's done it in about seven minutes before.
You're going to hear a corona sneeze right now.
Go, go, go.
Go.
I think I'm living with a corona patient.
Patient Zero in Glasgow.
Okay, got a pretty good one here.
When you were teaching, what was the best way to get more students?
Now, if anyone doesn't know, before I was in Stray,
I was in like a few other bands and stuff,
but my main job was teaching the drums.
And I basically had about 25 students a week.
There was probably 20, I think there was 19 of those.
that were every single week
and there was
maybe like I had five or six
walk-ins a week.
Fuck, have I spoken about this on the podcast before?
If I have, you fucking idiot for asking this question.
But basically, the number one thing
is get a background check.
I think I had at the time it was,
fuck, I can't remember what it's called.
Some background check where they check
that you're not going to do.
diddle kids and get that and then you want to basically advertise in I actually went down the
route of not advertising in music shops or whatever I advertised in like village halls you know
they've got those little notice boards supermarkets and churches funnily enough given my
background into Satan.
And then, to be honest, it's word of mouth.
Word of mouth is king, especially if you're teaching kids.
And I would recommend getting the background checks or whatever relevant training you need
to do to teach kids because it's kids that have the return factor from a student point of
view, like the parents, especially if you're working towards a goal, like in the UK
you can do grade books.
I've definitely spoke about this on the podcast before.
Fuck you,
whoever asked this question.
But if you're working towards like a grade book
where you can do an exam or whatever,
then you,
that kid will come back for however long it takes to do the book.
Even if you don't have a graded exam,
make your own sort of thing up where it's like,
right, we'll do X pages from stick control
and then with a view to learning these six day of work.
or playalongs from that first day record book that isn't insane or whatever.
And then you train the students up to get that far and you would create your own curriculum.
So then from each student, from each brand new student that hasn't played the drums,
you've probably got six weeks of beginner lessons, six weeks of,
as in like how to hold a fucking drumstick, six weeks of basic grooves,
and then upwards of six weeks of trying to play songs from a play along book,
like that is what shit at maths 18 weeks per student if you're charging 30 pound an hour
18 weeks you do the maths that's fucking loads of money but the key thing is to have like a
beginner to getting a beginner to an intermediate level like have a plan that you use as a basis
for all students and then obviously go off-piece if they need a little bit of working timing or whatever
but I ain't going to do it for you
you've got to do that bit yourself
worst venue toilet you ever used
definitely one in Italy
no offence Italy but fuck
there's only two of you I think
Italian listeners to the podcast
fuck me
there's just holes in the floor sometimes
in some of those smaller Italian venues
although when you're squatting
like that the poo does come out quite easy
but it's just the concept that I don't like
disagree with the concept in general
I'm just going to
down these. There's a lot of crap questions this time, guys. Where's your, I want to
fuck a ghost shit? Where's your, would you fuck a mermaid? I just want to know what you think I
would fuck, question mark. If you could have two superpowers, I nearly said superhuman powers.
If you could have two superpowers, what would they be? I don't really know. I should have
prepared this one. I guess, I don't care. I don't care.
enough about anything. What would I do? Go and save a bunch of people I don't care about?
My superpower would be Medicare for all. And you can do that by voting for Bernie Sanders.
If I could pick one drummer to replace you in Stray, who would it be? Probably someone not as good as me,
so I wouldn't feel bad coming back.
we've got Matt from Spike to fill in for me for a bit
and he's really good
and I was a bit nervous when I got back
if I can only listen to one artist for the rest of my life
but the entire discography for that artist
who would it be?
Radiohead there's so much of it
there's so much different
vibe to it I could live off Radiohead
Desert Island disc every Radiohead album
Oh this is a good one
Well done.
At 7MND.
If you were to be a part of a supergroup
and had to pick each member
from a different band,
who would they play in what genre?
Who would they be in what genre would you guys play?
That question rips.
Okay.
I'm guessing I can't have the people from my own band
because I would actually quite like some of them in it
because I have a lot of fun with them.
And, you know, obviously,
when you're all my age,
which is 33 on Thursday, please buy a T-shirt.
For my birthday.
Um, if you are my age, most of Torin is hanging out.
I've got to be able to hang out with these motherfuckers.
So, I'm going to pick Sam Carter on vocals, obviously, because he's my best fucking boy.
He's my shining man, number one handsome man, Sam, because we have a fucking good time, and he's the fucking goat.
So he's on vocals.
If I can only pick one from each band, I'm not going to pick Josh because he's in architects.
how's about this?
Let's go
Ackle from Tesseract
on guitar
and I would also just get him
to write everything
because that would be
very sick
because I love that band
and he's a very, very good songwriter.
I'm going to take
the man
on the bass
for party elements
and also
bass playing skills
V man from Slipmont
and also obviously the hangout factor already.
I don't know if Ackle parties,
but already this band is not going anywhere
due to the party element.
But I would also, let's go, other guitarists,
I think I'd get Andy from every time I die
because I only hang out with him a couple of times,
but he's a big, attractive man that likes to go to the gym,
and I need at least one person in my band that goes to the gym with me.
He's also a shredder.
He also knows V-Man, so there's not going to be any sort of...
Oh, and Sam actually, so there's no sort of awkwardness there.
Oh, this band fucking rips.
And then, if we're getting another member involved,
I feel like I want synths.
So, because I want it to be a little bit nine-inch nailsy, a bit spooky.
I'm going to go with John from The Devil Wears Prada.
Also for Hangout Factor.
And, man, this band is so good.
Can we get this together?
Sam Carter.
Andy from Eatid.
from Tessoract, V-Man from Slipknot, John from the Devil West Pada, your fucking boy,
Craig Reynolds, ripping those skins, I want that band to happen. Can we make that band happen?
Can everyone just tag all these people and make this band happen? Because, Jesus, I'd have a
fucking good time. In this time of crisis, we could do it while no one's touring. We'd do a little
supergroup. That is the best supergroup anyone's ever thought of. No questions asked.
that might be the last question top five movies no one's ever asked me this let's do it let's end on top five
movies um number one inception i just fucking love it christopher nolan just give me that little
director dick christopher nolan i'll suck that shit clean off your body you're the best man you're
not going to hear this but i'm putting it out there inception i remember when i saw it the soundtrack
Hans Zimmer, up nice and loud, just proper head fuck.
Love that movie, love everything about it.
Number two, Dead Man Shoes by Shane Meadows.
If you haven't seen that movie, fucking dark, Midlands, drama.
Don't Google it.
Just watch it.
I feel like hereditary might be in my top five,
which some people will think is crap,
but I really like it from a horror film, point of view.
It's got the right element of spooky and weird and fucked up for me.
What am I on three?
Old boy, the Korean version, the original version of Al Boy.
Again, don't Google it.
Just watch that.
I feel like Old Boy might be number two, actually, if this is in order.
Old Boy's number two.
What have I got, number one?
I gave you four right off the bat, so they must be real.
American Psycho.
Love the book.
Love the movie.
I love the fact the movie was directed by a woman
given that the book is quite sexist
but to prove a point
not so keen on Brett Easton Ellis
the writer of the book's current
sort of viewpoint on the world
which kind of spoils it for me
but I feel like the movie
still stands the test of time
and Christian Bale
absolute babe in that movie isn't he
fucking
definitely some roids in there
because I think he went from
there to the machinist and then to Batman,
definitely a couple of cycles.
It would be a trend maybe to get him up to that Batman weight.
If you don't know what that means, good.
Disclaimer, I've never done trend.
Otherwise, I'll be way bigger than I actually am.
I'm actually very small.
I'm actually a small little man.
And that leads me to my next question
where someone says, what's your current training split?
My current training split is push, pull, legs, day off.
Different push, different pull, different leg,
day off. So I go to the gym six days a week because I am bored and sometimes depressed and it makes
me less of both. What happened with your vegan experiment? I tell you what happened. It's sort of
coincided with an extreme mental breakdown that I had which led me not going to Japan. Nothing to do with
the veganism, I don't think. But in my time of not sleeping and just living like a zonomom
I just ordered pizza and easy things I knew how to cook.
My problem was I was cooking excellent vegan meals and when I had an extreme breakdown
I couldn't be bothered to cook and I didn't really know of any vegan ready meals.
However, up here in Glasgow, eating mostly vegan, I would say it's probably 70-30 vegan.
It's definitely 95% vegetables.
vegetarian. 5% meat. I still eat a little bit of fish. Um, but yeah, I'm, I'm doing my bit to
ethically eat. Also, a lot of, um, a lot of, I've seen a lot of vegans that are apparently
for vegans for the environment still out and about in pubs and clubs while a virus is killing
people. So, you know, guys, I know you don't like humans, but,
wash your hands at least if you're going to
bowl around the place. You're going to bowl around
broodog getting your cauliflower wings and
killing your grand.
And that's probably it, guys.
What are the chances we get a downbeat workout playlist?
There's already my workout playlist. I feel like some of you
are arseys just so I fucking speak to you.
It's on Apple Music. It's called Dame Judy Bench,
which is a funny play on Dame Judy Dench
the of course
the actress from the hit movie Cats
and no other movies
that's the only movie she's been in
and then somebody ripped it and put it on Spotify right
and then put other shit songs on there
by shit metalcore bands
let's pull this up and see what shit they've added
and I'll tell you what was not me
someone
what a boring little wanker you've got to be to do this.
Are you ready? Let's go.
Let's go. Dame Judy Bench.
There it is. There's the playlist.
So I have a version of it
which is on there, which is actually, yeah,
that is by me but I haven't updated it in a while.
So a lot of that is still there, Dame Judy Bench.
And then someone else has made one called Dame Judy Hinch
and they've added, they've taken my playlist
and then they've added, like, no offence,
but after the burial
and just a lot of after the burial.
What else have they done?
No one knows Queen's a Stone Age.
Now that is a good song,
but I'm not listening to it in the gym.
Why else they got on this shit?
Whitechapel, yeah, but it's not a good song.
And actually, yeah, that should be on mine.
A lot of this is already on mine.
Not loose.
Or when I get in trouble for that?
Anyway, yeah, the real one is on.
Apple Music and also if you're on Spotify and not Apple Music your money is going
directly to a CEO that doesn't have anything to do with music and he's promised
that people would get larger streaming revenues for about five or six years
and he hasn't done it if anything he's actually made streaming less whereas if
you go to Apple Music your money will be going to Dr. Dre who is much cooler and
much more deserving of your money and pays a better royalty rate this is not
an advert this is not an advert but please come on
I think I'm going to call this here, guys, because there's only so long I can ramble on.
It's like nearly 40 minutes, isn't it?
There's been no intro. There's been no outro.
I'm going to upload this immediately for coronavirus content.
Quentin, I'm going to call it.
Yeah, peace out. Be safe.
Wash your fucking hands.
Wash those fucking hands.
Don't buy loads of toilet roll, you cunt.
You know, cunt.
