This is a podcast from Rover.
This is the Overthinkers podcast.
Gilda, thanks for joining us.
Clement and Dan.
To kick things off, it was a discussion that was had off here that we thought about bringing
on here to the show.
And then we were like, let's just save it for overthinkers,
because it is something to overthink.
Well, the thing is, if you wear Batman Sundays underneath, we're on top.
No, not that.
Today on the Overthinkers podcast,
We're overthinking.
Well, a lot of people probably think when they listen to the show that during the ads and during the songs, when we do our radio show, that there's a lot of prep going on behind scenes.
You know, we're talking about what we're going to be talking about next.
Meg might be looking up some stats.
Clint might be doing, so, you know, finding some songs and music to play under the break.
I'm, you know, writing jokes.
What are you doing?
Running jokes.
Do you pre-write your jokes?
That's sad as fuck.
Yeah.
And anyway, that doesn't happen.
what I caught Meg looking at on her computer
was both the most Meg thing ever
but also the furtherest from what she should be doing
I mean it's not really research is it
okay were you looking to buy something
so the question is what was Meg looking to purchase
while the radio
this helps can't afford to buy but wish I could
okay that's a nice clue because I went with a popcorn
like popper I could afford that I think
Yeah, so I think you're on the right track in terms of it's a homeware.
Okay.
You said it didn't plug into power, so then I guessed a bread bin.
Yeah, that's incorrect.
You're sort of off it now.
You're in the cooking realms.
Okay, but it doesn't need power.
No.
Clint's not a cook, so he doesn't even know what you use.
I don't think you'll ever get it.
You might get the sort of thing of what it is, but you'll never get the...
Give it a really good guess.
Let me know if I'm getting hot or colder, and then you give me a clue with each incorrect guess.
All right, okay.
Okay.
So remember she's sitting there on a tab, and she had multiple tabs over and of the same thing,
and she's sitting there just like drooling over it.
Okay, I think it'll be something that makes food.
You're on the right tracks.
Yeah, now we're better.
Okay.
It cooks food.
Anyway.
But.
Oh, and it's expensive.
Uh-huh.
Is it Le Crosse?
Yes.
Oh, my God.
No, but wait.
But it's a specific one that you go, fuck me.
Okay, it's a big soup pot.
Yes, but what is the shape?
Yeah, what shape is that?
It's in the shape of like a...
Is it in the shape of like a chicken?
No, come on, keep going to get it.
A tomato?
No, go ahead.
Oh my God, okay, it's...
What would Meg buy a big thing of?
Super, look, is it in the shape of it?
Pumpkin!
Yeah!
So she's looking, while she's doing her radio show,
at buying a Lacroset pumpkin
cast iron slow cooking thing.
Yeah, like cast iron pumpkin cassero, it's $835,
so I can.
I can't avoid it.
Last pay negotiation went well, clearly.
No, I said I can't afford it, but I'm just looking.
It's just been released.
I'm drooling over it.
It's a new colour way that I've been wanting.
I will say it does look beautiful.
And if you're having a, I don't know, if you're hosting,
and you brought out the soup in this pumpkin, you'd be like, oh, wow, that's just so
wholesome.
But I don't understand where they get the figure from.
Oh, it's because it's cast iron.
Cast iron.
And if it ever breaks, they will replace it for free.
It will last your lifetime.
That's their whole thing with Lucrezate.
But like, what is.
Why does the bowl need to be so strong to hold soup?
No, it's cast iron.
You can cook it on a bench top.
Like, you can cook it on the stove.
And then you can put it in the oven.
Oh, okay, so you're cooking the soup in it and presenting it on the table.
And I will have this until literally until I'm dead,
and they will replace it if it breaks in my lifetime.
You want it for $800.
Yeah, I guess that's why I quite like the brand.
That's one of those items that you go.
So I'm like, when I'm 90, I'm going to be having soup in this pot
and it makes me feel really traditional and nostalgic and homely.
Can I say cost per wear with clothes?
Yeah.
Cost per use?
How often are you making soup?
I mean, well, no, how often...
I use my licorosaise every day and I will for the rest of my life.
What's the most bogey thing you guys own?
Yeah, mine's a licorice.
For sure.
Okay, hold.
Is it like the thing you go home and you're like, if you're house started burning down.
Here's the question.
Have you our house started burning down, what's the first thing you grab?
After the, you know, your family's safe.
Yeah.
What are you grabbing from the house?
I'm grabbing my babies, like, bins.
You know, I make boxes of baby stuff.
Can we take away the nice stuff?
Because I've got two boxes that have got their names engraved on them
that have all their babies' clothes and birthday cards.
I get that.
Okay, so fine.
Take that out of the equation.
Sex bag.
So wait, so you're going, the house is fucking burning down.
Your kids are crying.
She's getting down.
My puppy, my puppy toy.
Oh, yeah, I get that.
He's like, God, I'm going to be mourning the house.
I need to have at least have an orgasm.
And so he goes in and grabs it.
He's like, the fire service arrive.
He's not going to town on a flashlight.
No, you don't want to be wrong.
to find that though, do you?
It'll be melted. It's silicone.
There's always shit that survives a fire.
Oh, no, this is true.
So he's got a different angle here.
He's going to save face.
So he's going and grabbing his butt plugs.
You've gone valuable, and I've gone for least embarrassing, you know, aftermath.
Okay, what would Dan say then?
Well, then, if that's the case, I have got a butt plug in my side draw,
which I've never used, by the way, but I got it for free.
You do not have a butt plug in your side drawer.
We got it for free, sent.
Why can you throw it out then?
I remember taking it.
Never know.
I know.
I did try.
I remember taking it home.
I've talked about it.
Maybe not to us.
Within 40 seconds, I have tried it.
Yeah.
You said it's not like it sits there and I'm using it every day.
Wait, have you used it or not use it?
Because you said you've never used it.
And then about eight seconds later, you said I've tried it.
I've tried it once.
Okay, well then if you didn't like it, it would have gone in the bin.
You liked it?
You like that you put it back in the drive?
It was one of those moments where I got home one day and I was like, and I just got it.
And I was like, I'll give it a go.
And then I went, oh, yeah.
and took the condom off and put it in my drawer.
Why wouldn't you put it in the bin?
If you're like, I don't like it, put it in the bin.
Why is it still in your drawer?
Change, I guess, over time.
You know, I didn't used to like mushrooms now.
I love him.
It's the actual food that's not an infamous.
Like a mushroom?
No, it just wasn't for me.
It was too...
Then, why did you keep it?
It's like eating S-cargo.
It's too exotic for me.
Like, I'm a classic mac and cheese guy
when it comes to that kind of thing.
No, your freak flag is sitting in there
because you would throw it out.
No, because I try...
No, I wouldn't.
Yes, you would.
Why would you keep it?
Why keep it then?
Well, I will.
I'll go and throw it out today if you have that pissed off about it.
Yes, it pisses me off.
I don't really go into my drawer that often.
There'll be a video of Dan destroying in the bin.
Video ends.
Pulls it back out.
Like, if you go into my top drawer.
I'm going to put it in the bin.
He places it gently on top.
And then wait to where Anna's out and I go grab it.
No, but I think in my top drawer there'd be some neurophon.
Yeah.
Jesus, what a night in a butt plug.
How big is it?
Some neurofit.
Oh, my God.
Have your husband down.
He's a freak.
Okay, let's move into this.
You got mail.
Oh, yes.
Wow, this is a jarring move, actually,
because this is a very lovely message that I received.
Should we save it for Monday because I feel like it is quiet?
Actually, I don't think we can.
Let's do it differently.
I'm going to find something else.
Why?
We're not going to do that one.
No, I'm going to find something else because that's just too much.
It is, yeah.
It's about someone that's on the journey of trying to have a
a baby or something. I'm super wholesome.
Yeah, okay, let me go and try it. They don't want to be in the
butt plug episode because I imagine what the title
of this would be. Oh, here we go. I haven't
pre-read this. Should I just do it? Let's do it.
Is this a message from someone? Yes.
Hey guys, I'm Meg. Another one.
And I wanted to say thank you very much for keeping me
company the past few months. I live in the UK, but
love the show. I've recently been through a breakup
and I'm wondering if you could give me some advice.
That's good. I've never
done them before. I want to be very
independent. However,
I really need help putting
together putting up a shed in my new
garden. Fuck it out.
Should have pre-read. Is that something that
is okay to have on my dating page?
What's this got to do with them getting
broken up with?
You're reading two messages as well.
I'm not. I can confirm what
you are saying about living alone
by the way. My ex has my kids half the
week. I feel like I should miss them.
But it's lovely. Calm house when I'm alone.
Anyway, thanks for the laughs. So she's
putting in, she wants to know if
she can put her in a day.
Can you make my shed?
Oh, like she wants a man for more than just the obvious.
She also needs a shed built.
My only advice to someone that's broken up with someone.
Did she say how long she'd been with that person?
I've recently been through a breakup.
I'm on the Dany Naps.
I want to be very independent.
However, I really need help putting up my shed.
Is that okay to have on the page?
I think that's fine.
I think it's a bit of fun.
I will say the Duelepa thing of like getting under.
to someone else to get over them.
Yeah.
I reckon that's the wrong advice.
Me too.
I reckon that's a bad thing to do.
Because then you're instantly putting yourself out there and I think you need to have some
time to yourself.
Learn to love yourself.
Oh, you're in your butt plug and your nerve.
Whatever dad's doing, Nevada leaves him.
Try to numb myself.
Jesus, how big is it?
It's actually very small.
butt plug.
Always to the gut of the sky.
Oh, she brought it up again.
I was having to move on and go on to surrogacy.
It was too easy.
He said you needed to have some time to yourself.
Yeah, yeah.
Anyway. There are Maroon 5.
Didn't they?
Bloody out.
Seaguer out of the air.
I'm bringing it back to what you're talking about.
Didn't he sing a song about building a shed for a girl to show how much he loved her?
What gag is this?
You were lucky that you have this job.
You really are.
I never thought I'd say this, but let's go back to butt plugs.
Okay, do I have to save this podcast?
Yeah, you have to, you've got to do the far.
We were in dire, we had a week mess last week because you were away.
Did no one do against the far?
No, Liam was so upset.
Of course we wouldn't.
Why would we do that segment?
Didn't Bella do it when I was away?
We'd your Bella did it once.
Yeah, we said that Dan was like, we have to give it a break and give
and make people want it more.
That's what I said, exactly.
Something like that, wasn't it?
Something like that, I guess.
Okay, well, right, here we go.
Unless there's anything else?
You don't want to do the surrogate stuff?
Now, here's the thing.
Play the intro.
Okay.
Hit it.
Here it comes.
I just feel it coming when this old is.
Really?
A stinky mystery.
Four us to one hell.
Oh.
Guess the fall.
Now, a little bit of a special guest today.
I'm just pitching it because Carl, our producer, he's here.
he's having to look after a sweet little daughter,
Goldie, who's here.
Could she do a fart noise?
Could she be our special guest for Guess the Fart today, Carl?
Oh, yeah.
Hey, Goldie, I'm just going to pause Bluie there for a sec.
Do you do it reckon you can do a fart noise like this?
No?
No, she's shaking her head.
Even she's got a high girl.
So you don't want to, do you want to come in and play Guess the Fart with Clint?
No, sorry, God.
You and me both, Goldie.
You and me both, babes.
Yeah, good on you, Joe.
Yeah.
You should say,
You should say, get the fart or Bluey doesn't go back on.
Or Bluey gets it.
Poor Bluey gets it.
Poor Bluey.
Okay, Meg, you can do the honours.
I love how our boss Jack comes in here for this.
Hall out.
I need focus, please.
All right, can I could do that.
Jesus Christ, God help us if that happens.
I'll leave the building, not just the studio.
Okay.

so I'm going to go

You're all right then I'm leaving the building
