Starting point is 00:00:00 Welcome to the Luke and Pete show. It is Thursday the 5th of May. Of course means it's a celebration of all things batteries and boys, Pete and Luke. You have got really into doing the dates on the show. Well, I've been you've taught me no I really don't but you've I feel like you've
Starting point is 00:00:30 conditioned me to do this what kind of energy have you got at the moment I still feel a little bit ill because of my elbow but I'll get through it I've been eating
Starting point is 00:00:38 milk duds all morning I do like a 1950s kind of American sweet. It's like theatre candy. Why are they called
Starting point is 00:00:47 Milk Duds? I don't know. What is a dud? Because I thought Milk Duds, I thought of things like teats, nipples. They're chocolate
Starting point is 00:00:54 caramels, right? Yeah. I just looked it up. According to the manufacturer, the word milk in the name refers to the large amount of milk in the
Starting point is 00:00:59 product. And the use of dud came about because the original aim of having a spherical shape wasn't achievable. I just wrapped a hand. It's crap.
Starting point is 00:01:08 These are crap. Milk crap. The duds. Milk misshapen milk. It's just like the original misshapes. Yeah. Can you have a guess
Starting point is 00:01:16 at what year that milk duds first came around? You said 50s. You're wrong. Am I? Yeah. 1963. 28.
Starting point is 00:01:22 1928. Yeah. Whoa. Yeah. That's amazing, isn't it? People say America's got no history. They're making chocolate a long, long time. yeah 1963 28 1928 yeah whoa yeah that's amazing people say America's got no history
Starting point is 00:01:27 they're making chocolate a long long time yeah and their brands are still really really popular
Starting point is 00:01:32 I guess because I like I like hot tamales I like Mike not Mike and Ike is what they're called
Starting point is 00:01:37 I like their version of the licorice torpedo what are those guys they're called up and downs
Starting point is 00:01:44 or something isn't it yeah I'll tell you you carry on they're the same shape as Mike and Ike but they're called up and downs or something yeah I'll tell you you carry on they're the same shape as Mike and Ike's but they're not it's like an American version of a licorice
Starting point is 00:01:50 torpedo and it's blooming delicious just like they come in big big cartons for big big boys with big appetites
Starting point is 00:01:57 do they call them London drops no god what's the first thing that came up first thing that came up it's the London drop it's so funny to me because you know your life like an ft man as marcus from the ram was said a while
Starting point is 00:02:08 back your um your life is like one big episode or issue of the bino right yeah okay you basically live like the bino like the other like earlier today you were sat outside the gates in your car just sitting there the car's added an extra frisson of danger. It's added a bit more to my life. I've got a little bit of my home to take around with me.
Starting point is 00:02:30 I arrive in front of the big gates. You're sat outside the gates in your car and I use my pass to open the gates for you and I think, okay, I'm happy to do that
Starting point is 00:02:38 but you've worked here as long as I have so what's happening? I've not got my pass with me. I left my keys in there. You left your keys there for like two weeks. How have you been getting into the house then?
Starting point is 00:02:47 I've got spares. Mr. Plant. I'm always going down Timpsons, mate. Keeping the ex-cons in gainful employment. Can I give you a little life hack? You're making a big mistake with your keys. You know that? You know why?
Starting point is 00:02:59 Why? Well, because you've got your house, office, and car keys all in the same ring. Right. Well, you lose them well you leave them somewhere you're fucked keep them separate brother why though
Starting point is 00:03:08 because then I'm carrying all three sets of keys in my pocket no you're not because you don't if you're not going out in the car don't take your car keys
Starting point is 00:03:13 yeah but what if I find well cars are bad examples but what if I get to if I'm walking around and suddenly oh I've got to get in the office I've forgotten my office keys because they're not
Starting point is 00:03:22 on my key ring I need them all in one spot do you want to know my process what I take the keys so I've got my get in the office. I've forgotten my office keys because they're not on my key ring. I need them all in one spot. Do you want to know my process? What? I take the keys. So I've got my home and my office keys on the same ring. Right.
Starting point is 00:03:30 So you've gone against your own advice there then? The car key. So I put the home and office keys in my bag as soon as I leave the house. So they're there if I need them. I get them out when I get to the office. I get them out when I get home. The car key stays home, brother.
Starting point is 00:03:41 Because if I get locked out, I can't get into the house because I've got locked out. I don't know what he said but I just thought if you lose your house keys why would you want to lose your house office and car keys
Starting point is 00:03:52 at the same time it's sufficient isn't it going the whole way going the whole way yeah so I think that you should rethink that okay I will rethink that I've thought about it I'm not going to do it
Starting point is 00:04:02 they're all in the one ring do you want to talk about you trying to do a handbrake turn in the car park earlier as well? How do people do handbrake turns now? Not like that. How does it... Well, I can't because I've got an electric handbrake on my car now. What do you mean?
Starting point is 00:04:16 So my handbrake isn't even a handbrake. So what does it do? It's like a little button. A little button? Yeah. What does it do? It goes electric handbrake accessible. It doesn't when you park the car you just flick the button and the red light comes on so it's on but you don't need to turn it off you just pull away and it
Starting point is 00:04:32 goes off automatically that's clever it's a bit boring though it is a lot the old yeah not when you've got a bad elbow oh yeah that really ends i can't pull it you need that yeah so when you when you do the handbrake turn you've got to swing the wheel around as quick as you can and yank the handbrake. I don't think I was going fast enough. I think that was the issue, yeah. You completely bottled it. I couldn't go faster, could I?
Starting point is 00:04:51 It made quite a pleasing sound. Yeah. But I looked and you just weren't moving. One day I'll learn to do a handbrake turn. Yeah, I think we've done to see that. Supermarket car park. The best place to do a handbrake turn
Starting point is 00:05:04 is seriously, like maybe do it in quiet, on a quiet Sunday morning or something. Drive your car to a big field. Yeah, because it's slimier. It is due from the night before. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:14 And drive, and you can spin around a couple of times. You're going to make a big mess though, aren't you? Yeah, but no one knows, baby. Oh no.
Starting point is 00:05:21 Just leave. We're doing your park. I can remember once when we were kids, we never made, no one at the hotel I can remember once when we were kids you know the hotel I went to my mate Phil Loch Ness Monster all the rest of it
Starting point is 00:05:27 he was a bit of a character back in the day he still is a bit of a character but he was very very much a character back in the day and I remember us playing Knockout Wembley we talked about that
Starting point is 00:05:35 as well didn't we Knockout Wembley and he and his partner if it was in Knockout Wembley doubles went out early at this big field
Starting point is 00:05:43 where we were playing football oh the curse of Knockout Wembley we were out early at this big field where we were playing football oh the curse of Knockout Wembley we were about 18 at the time right so we were still playing football what we used to do is to go and play football
Starting point is 00:05:50 during the day then go out the pub after right usual story there's no one else in the field apart from us and he got knocked out first
Starting point is 00:05:57 and he disappeared right and and we carried on playing I didn't think any of it because we were focusing on the game we were playing and we just heard this noise
Starting point is 00:06:06 of a car and he basically stole our other mate's mum's car which our other mate had driven down to the field and was just hooning it around the field putting her hand back
Starting point is 00:06:15 to her driving between the goal posts all sorts and it was probably quite dangerous and obviously my other mate couldn't concentrate on the game because his car had been stolen
Starting point is 00:06:25 and then he started trying to drive the car into the ball to play like basically like what's that game you guys yeah like that
Starting point is 00:06:32 but in like 1998 yes incredible stuff incredible scenes yeah it was very dangerous anyway what else have you been up to
Starting point is 00:06:39 Pete Don I love that video you sent me earlier this week about how they test manhole covers now I know that sounds boring to people listening this week about how they test manhole covers. Now, I know that sounds boring to people listening, but it's not boring.
Starting point is 00:06:49 It's actually very interesting. I think when you see anything that's kind of a piece of technology that's been created just to test other pieces of technology. It's a bit of you, that, isn't it? It's a bit of me. It's like the wheels of a light aircraft on a big arm, and it spins round on an axle. Just spins, spins, spins, spins, spins.
Starting point is 00:07:10 And it has a certain weight on it and stuff to replicate a car wheel. And it just goes round like 17 different manhole covers. It's a wonderful video to watch. Does it do it literally for like a year? Yeah, it just goes on and on. This is the 10 passages per minute. Near it.
Starting point is 00:07:33 It's going round a circular formation of manhole covers. It could have been anything. Un test de resistance. They're testing the resistance. But yeah, I just love watching machines that have, you know, they're testing the resistance uh but yeah i just love watching um machines that have you know they're just like they're just they're just created for one specific uh reason for the durability of
Starting point is 00:07:54 pavement mounted utilities you know when people say oh that that gotcha question in the interview why manhole covers round have you heard about that oh right okay so it came from it came from like i know back in the day like again this would have been in the 90s i suppose when microsoft was the company yeah it was okay it's like when people got you at google or right or whatever and apparently their interview process was really it was like really rigorous like you didn't know and then and it also culminated them asking you some really difficult very tough kind of logical type questions yeah i don't know if this is true or not but it's um it's it's like apocryphal thing and uh one of them was they would ask you so they would say how you experienced this problem solving blah blah yeah what i don't know what you your kind
Starting point is 00:08:39 of people say what code have you written all that kind of shit and they would say okay and the final question is why a manhole covers around and the point of it is to see how you think about the problem okay can i answer yeah like i know what the answer is okay well sewage pipes and pipes of sewers are invariably round they're designed a certain way why would you check and and it's an interconnecting world of just sewage pipes connect it connect it connect it
Starting point is 00:09:09 and then those access points why would you bother to redesign a square access point why don't you just invert a pipe
Starting point is 00:09:18 going into going out of the ground so that's why they're round Mr Donaldson we'll be in touch. Ah, nuts! No, you're wrong.
Starting point is 00:09:29 You're overthinking it. Right. Because the reason is because a circle like that is the only shape that if you angle it at a funny way it won't fall through.
Starting point is 00:09:39 Okay, right, yeah. So if it's square, it'll go in the corners and it'll fall through. It's basically just a complete... So we're just thinking about the actual... Right, okay.
Starting point is 00:09:47 That's why. But no one really knows that. Clearly you don't. Well, no. I think I would still give you the job, though. Why not just chain the cover to the inside of the things that won't fall through? I don't understand the point. What do you mean? Like chain the square manhole cover
Starting point is 00:10:07 to the inside of the pipe, inside of the access tunnel. Then it will fall. If it does fall through, it's going to... That doesn't make any sense. What do you mean it doesn't fall through? It doesn't make any sense, does it?
Starting point is 00:10:16 What do you mean? How are you going to get it out? What? If you're on the top, how are you going to get it out? Well, it... It's on a chain. You can't use it.
Starting point is 00:10:24 Yeah, but what is the problem with it falling through though well if someone's at the bottom of it you're gonna brain them aren't you well just have a chain long enough to hit that half of the ladder and not the bottom of the ladder like a cap on a on a kind of car fuel cap i don't think of it like that i don't think even you think that's a good idea you've made a mess there Donaldson how can I turn this into more of a weapon Pete
Starting point is 00:10:51 would you consider yourself someone who's generally good in job interviews no I think I've done one ever
Starting point is 00:10:57 ever is that to get the job at the government for the graphic design thing yeah can you remember it and even then I only got it
Starting point is 00:11:03 because I knew what FTP and HTTP means it was that period when no one knew what technology was no one knew you could literally if you were an evil person
Starting point is 00:11:11 you could literally bullshit your way but I accidentally bullshitted my way through and then quit well I quit six years later oh you were there
Starting point is 00:11:18 for six years I was there for ages what you were an actual I didn't know that you were in a proper job for six years yeah that seems mad now why is that mad who was your manager Steve Ellis What, you had an actual... I didn't know that. You had a proper job for six years? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:26 That seems mad now, doesn't it? Why is that mad? Who was your manager? Steve Ellis and Kate Worley. Good guys? Really good guys. Do you reckon you were good to manage? Kate Worley was a proper socialist firebrand in a quango, in a housing quango. Did you think you were an easy person to manage?
Starting point is 00:11:42 Were you more about better behave then? I was better behaved but my job was kind of like you know marketing and website and you know
Starting point is 00:11:50 it kind of comprised a lot of different roles. I got a lot of software I got them to buy a lot of software. I got you tax mugs
Starting point is 00:11:58 to buy me a lot of software. Adobe Illustrator didn't need it. Didn't need it but nobody knew my job. Why did you ask for it then? Because I wanted to learn it because I thought
Starting point is 00:12:07 it was an important skill. It's not an important skill. Did you learn it? I did learn it, yeah. Can you still use it now? Yeah, I think so. That's amazing. People will be listening
Starting point is 00:12:15 to this baffled that you had a job for six years. Put that on my LinkedIn. Endorse me on LinkedIn for Illustrator. Did you choose darkness then? What do you mean? I was distracted by darkness. This path you've gone down now? What do you mean? I was distracted
Starting point is 00:12:25 by darkness. This path you've gone down now. I remember, right, there was, when Half-Life 2, the video game,
Starting point is 00:12:31 came out, right, Steam was the delivery system for it. It's an online kind of how you buy Valve. You buy Valve, all that.
Starting point is 00:12:38 They, for you to run it, I believe, you had to sort of, on a computer, you needed an internet connection. Now, I lived in a place
Starting point is 00:12:48 that didn't have any internet at all. And I had no way of doing it. And so, I took the hard drive out of my computer at home and it ended up not actually working.
Starting point is 00:13:02 But, I had my computer completely open, putting my hard drive into it. What year was this? God. Whatever the year Half-Life 2 came out. So what would that be?
Starting point is 00:13:13 You carry on. I'll find out. Don't worry. You carry on. Half-Life 2 release. It was 2004. You've been living this for a long time. It's probably a little bit later than that,
Starting point is 00:13:24 to be honest. But I've got my whole computer, my office computer, open. been living this for a long time. It's probably a little bit later than that, to be honest. I've got my whole computer, my office computer, open, and I'm putting my hard drive in, and I'm closing it up. And that's not my job at all. I shouldn't have the computers open. But nobody seemed to sort of bat an eye, like,
Starting point is 00:13:39 Pete's doing something. People indulged me even back then. They probably thought, he knows what he's doing here. Did the IT department never turned up at any point. No, I think we had one guy and I don't think even he... Did game recognise game?
Starting point is 00:13:53 Did you nod at each other like motorbike riders? Yeah. My face was smeared with thermal paste. I don't think... I know I sound rude here but I don't think
Starting point is 00:14:04 you're employable now what do you mean? because you've gone more and more kind of abstract cannot do it I'm probably the same but in a different way
Starting point is 00:14:14 I don't like being told what to do really but you are more and more abstract I think it's become more and more difficult to predict your movements as you've got older
Starting point is 00:14:21 do you know what I mean? but that's what I mean if I get a proper job, I'll have to interview. That's not going to go well. No. And, you'd probably look quite good.
Starting point is 00:14:30 You'd dress yourself quite nicely, I think. Okay. You wouldn't, that's part of it. That's part of it. Okay, fine. You'd probably be on,
Starting point is 00:14:36 would you be on time? Hit and miss. 50-50 chance you'd be on time. I'm on, I'm pretty on time. Yeah, you're on time today. I'm on time today. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:14:43 It's funny, isn't it? Because, because of the type of person you are, in my mind, I've filed you as unpunctual. Right. You're not actually that bad. No.
Starting point is 00:14:52 But on the other hand, because we've worked with some people who are so poor, it's... Yeah, my slight misdemeanors... You're just middling. Yeah, my slight misdemeanors don't even kind of
Starting point is 00:15:01 touch the sides, really. I'm irritatingly punctual, aren't I? Yeah. Yeah, you'd say that. You'd say that. I don't think... Since we started sides really I'm irritatingly punctual aren't I yeah yeah you'd say that I don't think since we started doing the Ramble in this format
Starting point is 00:15:08 and the reason I use the Ramble as an example is because that's why we have to start first thing in the morning I don't think and it's been throughout lockdown
Starting point is 00:15:16 when we've actually been able to come in I have never once been late that's fair yeah no that's absolutely fine do you know what the hack is people listening might care
Starting point is 00:15:23 they probably won't but they might set off at the time that you're supposed to set off no I always aim for half hour early That's fair, yeah. No, that's absolutely fine. Do you know what the hack is? People listening might care. They probably won't, but they might. Set off at the time that you're supposed to set off. No, I always aim for half hour early. And if I get a half hour early, I like the half hour on my own just to get my shit together. I don't see it as wasted time. No, I completely agree.
Starting point is 00:15:35 I would say that before I moved an hour and a half away, there's a lot of variables in my thing now. And to be honest, I'm... But the way you repeatedly referenced that, that was bestowed upon you. I know! No, I don't! I've said it once, and you've clearly got an idea in your head that I'm going to blame that for being late.
Starting point is 00:15:57 You shouldn't be blaming that for being late. The most egregious... If I'm late, I'm like half an hour late I'm like fucked late you know yeah fair enough and it's because I've forgotten that
Starting point is 00:16:09 it's not by design I've forgotten that we're getting early I'm supposed to get in at 9 and I'm turning up at half past what the fuck why is everyone shouting at me I would also
Starting point is 00:16:18 it's the same it's the same because I would also say if you were going to be late you might as well just completely fuck it because it looks like it's not your fault. There are certain people in our world that are consistently five minutes late.
Starting point is 00:16:31 Yeah. And I think that's more disrespectful than being occasionally half an hour late. I think if you rock up an hour late, you can legitimately go, well, there's nothing I can do. Yeah. You know what I mean? I did my best. It's a force majeure, if you will. It's not the fact that I just can get, oh yeah, I missed the train because I can do. Yeah. You know what I mean? I did my best. It's a force majeure, if you like, if you will.
Starting point is 00:16:45 It's not the fact that I just can get, oh yeah, I missed the train because I was being fucking sloppy. Bike design, I get in 10 past, 10 past nine, and we're due to get there at up past.
Starting point is 00:16:55 There's a few variables that get thrown in the mix. And stop driving, because that's a joke. And one of the variables is your dreadful stomach problem. And my dreadful stomach problem. But to be fair,
Starting point is 00:17:04 you always do muster. I'll give you that credit. Anyway, on that note, let's give a break. When we come back, we're going to do battery brands. And I've got another good email as well, which you're going to enjoy. All right, then. Stick around for that. All right, farewell.
Starting point is 00:17:15 Yeah, we're back with a looking feature. How are you doing? It's Pete Donaldson and Luke Marr doing our things. On every Thursday, we do battery brands. And if you've never listened to the show before we are basically fascinated by the full
Starting point is 00:17:29 smugglers board gamut range of different battery bands that you find opening up bits of technology and you're like
Starting point is 00:17:38 where does this come from why have they called it Ultramax Spare Boy or Electro Ions, Ohms Law, Rotech? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:49 Charge Pencil. Charge Pencil. Why have they called it that? Skyscraper Power. Yeah, that's a good one. And it's invariably because it's a lot of Chinese, broken English, I suppose. But sometimes-
Starting point is 00:18:02 It's a racist microaggression. It's a racist microaggression it's a racist microaggression and we're sticking with it yeah boy have we got some battery brands this week
Starting point is 00:18:11 Luke Moore I've put three in the working live document that you are able to read from okie dokie
Starting point is 00:18:18 and I'm going to search so the first one up is our friend Sam Sam pulled these from my
Starting point is 00:18:24 metronome, Rabbit Conthos. So you hear Rabbit Conthos and you think that's got to be a new player. Let me take you back to the 4th of November last year. Our listener and friend and Luke and Peach are a family member, Ben
Starting point is 00:18:40 Roberts, also sent in some Rabbit Conthos. So Sam, I can imagine how excited you were when you saw it. Unfortunately, you're not a new player. You're second. Which is not bad for a rabbit contho. No. But you're not a new player, Sam. I've never had a contho with rabbit. Sounds very nice. You're alright, rabbit.
Starting point is 00:18:56 You're cooking some very hot fat. I meant like a conversation. I know, yeah. I was doing a joke on confit. Oh, confit. Nice. I like it. That was closer to what we recorded as a joke on comfy. Oh, comfy. Nice. I like it. That was closer to what we recorded as a joke, I would say. Hi, guys. Recently just found an old toy for my girlfriend's mum and dad.
Starting point is 00:19:13 Do not go into detail on that. And found these inside. Heng Weih Super Heavy Duty. Now, this sounds like proper good old Chinese AA batteries, to be quite frank. Keep up the good work across the whole of Stack. Best wishes,
Starting point is 00:19:30 Billy. Oh, before I get into the detail on this, I've only just put two in there. That's alright, that's fine. We'll have a two week. It's the second of two.
Starting point is 00:19:37 That is a new player. What? So congratulations to you, Billy. You have delivered a new player. A new player has entered the game. His name, he's not said we can't use his full name,
Starting point is 00:19:46 so I'm going to use it. Billy Hale, his name is. Hale Hale. Which is pleasingly close to... Billy Hale in the comments. No, he's Woody Harrelson's character in White Man Can't Jump, Billy Hoyle. Okay, good.
Starting point is 00:19:58 Iconic character in a movie. Yeah, he's just a man who can't jump. Exactly. I can't remember the plot of that. Why are there two friends and there's a bet? Do you want it from start to finish
Starting point is 00:20:10 because I can do it? Woody Harrelson turns up at the I think the Venice Beach basketball courts in California. Okay. And
Starting point is 00:20:18 Wesley Snipes' character Sidney Dean is the king of the court. King of the court. Yeah. He's the fast talking, the wise cracking, the great player.
Starting point is 00:20:27 Is Wesley Snipes particularly tall? Not really, no. No, that's why it's funny, isn't it? I'll come on to that in a minute. Right.
Starting point is 00:20:32 And Woody Harrelson schools him. Yeah. He punks him. Yeah. He pretends he's not very good. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:36 Turns out he is really good. Right. And people underestimate him because he's white. As they say, as one of the characters, one of the black characters
Starting point is 00:20:42 says in it, one of the African-American players says, I don't want to play with him and he says why and he says because he's white and someone else goes because he's white
Starting point is 00:20:49 because the other person goes and the other person goes well he's white look at him and then Billy Hoyle goes yeah I'm white that's the premise Wesley Snipes gets so butt hurt
Starting point is 00:20:58 by getting played you either play or you get played he got played he goes after Woody Harrelson and they they strike a pact. Right.
Starting point is 00:21:06 They're going to go, right, here's what we're going to do. We're going to go to all the unfamiliar courts around LA. And absolutely. No, I'm going to,
Starting point is 00:21:13 let me tell you, I'm going to play, says Wesley Snipes, with another African-American player. Yeah. Right. We're going to win and then I'm going to get so overconfident,
Starting point is 00:21:22 I'm going to say to the other two African-American players in the two-on-two basketball, I'm so good, I will play with anyone here and we'll still beat you. At that exact moment, Woody Howser's character walks in, dressed quite badly, looking white, and they all go, okay, you're going to play with him. And Wesley Snipes feigns it like, oh no, not him,
Starting point is 00:21:41 you're breaking the rules, I can't play with a white guy. Turns out Woody Howser's great. They're going to Minnesota Fats him, they're going to hustler him. They do. feigns it like oh no not him you're breaking the rules I can't play with a white guy turns out Woody Harrison's great they're going to Minnesota Fats him they're going
Starting point is 00:21:47 to Hustler him they do and it's a bit more complicated than that and it culminates with the fact that there's a
Starting point is 00:21:52 big tournament at the end and Woody Harrison's a bit of a degenerate and he can't keep hold of his money because he's a gambler
Starting point is 00:21:56 and all the rest of it Rosie Perez plays his wife she's amazing it's a great movie it's a great
Starting point is 00:22:01 great movie and the thing that really makes it work is that Wesley Snipes and Woody Harrison are both very good basketball players. So I think Woody Harrison played for his college quite a good level.
Starting point is 00:22:13 I think Wesley Snipes did as well. And the basketball consultants for the movie said, yeah, you don't actually really need to use standards for this. Yeah. But it's quite interesting because the cameo other players they play against, I think are all recently retired NBA players. Ah, okay.
Starting point is 00:22:30 Yeah, it's good. It's a great movie. That sounds like a fun little romp. It's one of those movies that, when it comes on, I'll always watch it. I'll always watch it. When does it ever come on? It never comes on.
Starting point is 00:22:40 It's one of those movies that, when I put it on, I always watch it. Anyway, congratulations to you, Billy Hoyle. Billy Halele Billy Hale Billy Hale you got a new player out of the game smashing stuff
Starting point is 00:22:49 there we go there's an email here Peter from Jack I want you to read it yeah alright listener Jack says
Starting point is 00:22:55 hello Luke and Pete got a big bone to pick with you more so Luke than Pete on Saturday I was due to visit Krakow
Starting point is 00:23:02 on a lads holiday for a week unfortunately I realised the night before I hadn't renewed my passport. Oh, mate, killer. So instead, me and my missus, who was on Easter holiday, teacher, not a kid, decided to have a domestic break, which sounds like you've broken up for a bit.
Starting point is 00:23:22 You know what I mean? Like a domestic and a break-up. I'm worried about him going to Krakow with his mates for a week a week a week yeah what have you got salt mine
Starting point is 00:23:29 first day yeah probably pub schnitzel head to the concentration camp
Starting point is 00:23:38 obviously go to Vizsla Krakow yeah and then that's all of it really innit I've been there that's all that's all there is to do I isn't it? I've been there. That's all there is to do.
Starting point is 00:23:46 I've also been there. I've also been there. Good stuff. Anyway, yeah, we chose Norwich after listening to your recent podcast. We chose Norwich from Luke's high praise. What a regret! After arriving at midday on a sunny Thursday, it didn't take long before the drama had begun.
Starting point is 00:24:03 Within the first hour exploring the city, we were witness to a bloke smashing his girlfriend's phone off the floor over and over. Then he stole her baby in pram and ran up the hill. Someone intervened and he threw a one-two bang, which didn't cause any damage, luckily. Good God. Then we went back to the pub connected to our hotel. We were sat next to a group of 20 to 24-year-olds
Starting point is 00:24:22 ranting about how they were going to kidnap and stab a bloke that had upset one of their sisters the man in question was apparently strapped up but these lads had no fear this all happened before 5.30 in the afternoon I was going to say because that was my favourite episode of Happy Hour that after that we decided to go for a cheeky tie
Starting point is 00:24:42 and head back to our room early my girlfriend has now banned me from picking our next weekend visit location After that, we decided to go for a cheeky tie and head back to our room early. My girlfriend has now banned me from picking our next weekend visit location. So, yeah, from my experience, Norwich isn't the best shout for a UK city visit. We didn't even get to meet Robbie Knox. Yours sincerely, Jack. And he followed up with an email saying, Hi again, just to update. Next day was a lot more fun.
Starting point is 00:24:59 I take it back. We went on a pub crawl. I met lots of good people. Maybe I was preemptive with my judgment. Thanks to the great podcasts every single week. Jack jack i like the fact that he wrote that email in his room pissed off at us yeah because the first email so i think so the first email came in yeah um this is jack dempsey is the and he didn't say again we couldn't use his surname jack dempsey great boxer by the way the first one came in at midnight yeah on friday night oh it's a nicely
Starting point is 00:25:23 written email for those we get in the early hours i would say the second one came in um midnight on Friday night. Uh oh. It's a nicely written email for those we get in the early hours I would say. The second one came in shall we say in the morning when maybe some water had been taken on board and a hearty breakfast
Starting point is 00:25:33 and Jack was feeling that all was right with the world again. Can I take issue with something Jack says there? Okay. And this might be something
Starting point is 00:25:40 that you might want to help with but if you can't maybe our listening community can. Why do people say a cheeky this or a cheeky that am I missing something
Starting point is 00:25:47 what does it mean I remember because cheeky feels like something like oh we shouldn't have been it's naughty isn't it I cheekily parked
Starting point is 00:25:55 in the disabled supermarket car park or whatever I had a little cheeky whatever a cheeky tyre there's nothing to stop Jack and his girlfriend

Starting point is 00:26:11 is this a Danny Dyer thing that people have called no I think it's a posh thing I remember a lad who went out with my missus's mate
Starting point is 00:26:19 who was very posh and she couldn't get it out of her head he went at one point let's go shall we go to Cheeky Chinese it sounds worse than a posh accent she couldn't get it out of her head that he went at one point let's go shall we go to Cheeky Chinese it sounds worse
Starting point is 00:26:28 than a posh accent I thought it came from Cheeky Nando's people talk about Cheeky Nando's yeah it was Cheeky whatever Cheeky whatever I don't like it
