What is happening in Gemma?
I used to have Gemma big tits, but then I changed it.
Oh, okay.
So now Gemma's saggy tits.
We can't have five over people we've had sex with previous.

Shut up.
There you go, you see?
It's all on the wrist.
You can tell you don't.

I'm too tired.
Yeah, I'll do it for you.
Oh, welcome to Lost in Translation.

Starting the day with a tossing of a pancake.

Now, for those who are watching on YouTube, you'll notice a pan and a pancake.
It's because it's been pancake day, isn't it?
Yeah.
You have to eat all the pancakes, the butter, the sugar, the eggs, all that, and then give some up for lent.
Well, we make healthy ones because we are not really eating sugar, to be honest.
I'm going to try and flip this pancake to start the show.
Nice.
Without further ado...
Oh, shit.
Without further ado...
Oh.
There we go.
You see it's all on the wrist.
Welcome to Lofton Translation.
Vamos!
That was good.
That was a double flip.
I'm the chef.
Twice the tosser.
Before we get in, how is the week been?
How is your last night, please?
Awful.
I've never been so scary in my effing life.
Yeah.
Picture this.
Three in the morning.
Actually, it was 3.34.
It was 3.34, so just a minute after the witching.
hour. So I was in bed. Probably I was in REM. For those who know, REM is like when your brain is
like healing, yeah? After the deep sleep, you're going to REM. I was there in my REM zone thinking,
oh, I'm going to have two hours sleeping, comfy. Benji was on the floor. Wasn't like my ears.
It was good, you know? Me, I was in her bed. And then I woke up because I had like,
ah, ah, help me. Someone is on top of me. And I was like, you okay? I was like, what's wrong with you?
like, go go go, go.
And he said to me,
Do you want me to hug you?
Do you want me to hug you?
That's what he asked me.
I was like, no.
But so basically,
as if you asked me that in a moment of terror,
do you want me to hug you?
I don't like being hugged in day-to-day life.
When I'm fighting for my life,
it's the last thing I want.
I suffer,
well, I used to suffer as a kid,
and clearly I still had an episode
of sleep paralysis,
which if anyone has had it,
It is the most terrifying experience.
If you Google it, the image that comes up is awful.
So it's that bit of sleep where you're in a deep sleep,
but your body's waking up, but your mind isn't.
It's the weirdest thing.
So you're fully conscious, but you cannot physically move or make noise.
And you're lay screaming at the top of your voice, but nothing's coming out.
And it feels like something or someone is like sat on you or over you.
I mean, my kind of someone sat on me is very different.
No, it's not.
It was awful.
So I opened my eyes and I couldn't move
and it was like this black figure with red eyes just staring over me.
And I was trying to get up to like get it off me
and I couldn't physically move.
So then I started going,
and I was screaming but nothing was coming out.
Until it did.
Until it did.
Bloody hell if it did.
It was the most terrifying.
It's so frightening.
And then the duvet, the duvet at the bottom of the beach,
bed started coming off, didn't it?
The duvet started moving.
Probably was me, I jumped off your screaming.
I moved there.
I jumped up, genuinely.
I got my crystal.
And hug the crystal.
I got my crystal.
I put it on my chest.
I called in Archangelot.
I was calling him Raphael, Gabriel and Michael.
I was like, Gabriel, Rafa, Michael, shield me.
Please shield me.
Whatever it is, leave me alone.
And he was going, what is happening, Gemma?
You didn't like it, come bit.
Because also, if you guys been listening to the podcast, last week ago, two weeks ago, I said that when the kids woke up and I came back to bed, I said to Jemma, don't talk to me.
Yeah.
I'm still sleeping, yeah?
So what happens?
She started to have a full-on conversation and explain me what was happening.
Get her phone, Google it, and I started to show me.
I'm like, I don't want to see it.
I don't care.
It was awful.
It's fine.
I believe you.
I don't want to see.
I don't want to have that thought in my head thinking it might happen to me.
No, you wouldn't cope.
I rebuke it in the name of Jesus.
Jesus Christ, whatever that thing was, I rebuke it.
I don't want it near me, but thank God for my crystals.
Also, I was just scared to wake up Mia, and Mia coming thinking, what's happening there?
Yeah, Benji crapped himself when I screamed.
Benji scuttled off under the chair.
So it's very, very frightening.
So I'm tired today.
Nice.
I didn't sleep very well.
If anyone does suffer from sleep paralysis, though, I feel your pain.
Let us know.
That's the question today.
Does anyone suffer from it?

So that was happening to you last night, great
Now we know where Mia gets it from as well
I know
Because Mia has night terrors
Yeah but I know that you talk
I remember once we're having a full-on conversation
And I was asking her questions
She was answered me
And she was absolutely flat out
Yeah
Yeah
That was frightening though
It was so random
She was like
Oh can you pass me the remote
Which remote is there like, oh, you want to watch?
I just put something.
And I was like, great.
I hope everyone had a lovely Valentine's Day, by the way.
That was not too long ago.
We had a nice time, didn't we?
Your was great, judging by that?
No, we had a nice time.
We're just sure.
We don't really celebrate Valentine's, do we really?
Every day's Valentine's with you, Gorks.
But it was nice.
But he did get me a card from question mark.
Yeah.
Which my dad did for me.
Do you know, it was when my dad passed away,
I realized that it was my dad doing that.
because for the first time in my whole life
I didn't get a Valentine's Day card the year he died
and I was like oh my gosh
that's so it was my dad all along
writing from question mark every year
regardless of my age I used to be like
oh my gosh who's this from
do you know what I wanted to do
like you know how when we did a dinner with Mia
yeah
yeah you should set her up for valentines
no because then it's a lot of pressure on her
then to be partner
because if they don't want to celebrate it
should be like well my dad always did
no it's different
because it's my love forever.
You're her first true love.
They say a dad's, it's a girl's first true love.
She's my last love forever.
A daughter's a daughter all your life.
Your son's your son until he finds his wife.
That's true because then they bug her off.
Oh, I can't wait for that.
Oh, no.
I don't want to get to get married.
No.
Oh, imagine when there's another woman in his life other than me.
Fine, take him, do the wash and do everything.
Could be another man in his life.
We never know.
Also, whatever it is.
Man or woman, I don't want you to work in.
Even if he's a dog, just go.
No, no one's going to be good enough for Tiago.
I can't wait for them to be over 18 so you and I can go to Australia for three weeks.
No.
Yes.
I'm going to be saying, hi, what's your intentions with my son?
And I'm going to shake their hand and squeeze it a little bit hard.
I don't want anyone near.
Mia's fine.
She's got the sad. Tiago's too sweet and innocent.
I'm going to be like a...
You'll get his heartbroken.
I'll be like Willie Smith.
How old are you?
I'm 15.
15, motherfucker you look 50?
Oh no, that would be awful.
A friend of ours actually told me at the weekend
that their son is 14 and going through his first heartbreak.
And she genuinely said it's the hardest thing to watch.
I was like, how do you not want to just fight that girl,
even though she's 13?
How do you not want to?
She's like, well, I can't.
I'm in my 40s.
But like, it'd be awful because at that age,
I mean, you must remember your first heartbreak.
You think there's no one else in the world ever.
I was 14.
I was quite older.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But were you really heartbroken?
Did you feel like this is it now, game over?
Yeah, I was 22.
Really?
That's quite old for your first half, right?
Yeah, before that, I was me the one breaking the hearts.
Oh, okay.
I see.
I get you.
No, but it is.
It's sad, isn't it?
Because you're told at that age, there's plenty more fish in the sea.
Don't be daft, but you're like, no.
I was in love with them.
I was upset for a week.
Then I just like,
mate, listen, if it's another one, just move on, you know?
My Nana Joyce used to say you get over one by getting under another.
No, I didn't do that.
That's what I used to do.
Yeah, but that's also not good.
I didn't really.
I didn't.
Yeah, sure.
That's what Nan Joyce used to say.
I bet you were like the M60 on there.
And do you know what else she used to say if we were going out?
Which was contradicted because if we were going out with the girl,
she'd say, have a good night, love it, but you think on.
Keep your hand on your apno.
Keep your hand on your apno.
Don't let anyone near it.
Oh.
Yeah.
You think on, she used to say.
Think in advance.
Keep your hand on.
And then this is.
is awful, but I'll overshare it because it's Laura and Nat.
They won't be bothered.
We used to do this thing to make sure we couldn't get under another.
When we were going out and if we were like going on a date with someone for the first time, don't wash.
Don't wash, no.
So then you knew how I didn't wash, I don't know.
No, it would always wash.
But laws and that, we used to say don't groom because then you won't want to show it in.
So no matter what happened, if you're on your first date, no matter if you wanted to, whatever, you used to think,
No, because I've got full bush.
Can't.
So it was like a wild bush, no?
Wild bush, so then you wouldn't want him to go there.
Second date, no, don't touch it, wild bush.
Third or fourth, full groom, wax, whatever you need to do.
Then it was fine.
But we used to say, is it your first day?
Yeah.
Keep that full bush.
Then you know he's not going to want it.
Then you know you won't show at him.
Oh, gosh.
These conversations, should we do our debates for the week?
Yes.
Our dilemmas for this week.
Well, it's not a dilemma, it's a debate.
Should we go into that?
Do you want to go first or do you want me?
You go first.
My debate is quite sweet this week.
It's something you did that didn't annoy me,
but it made me think, oh, bless him,
but then also grow up in a nice way.
So I walk Benji at night around our area,
and I always, I share my location with you, don't I,
when I'm walking him, because it's nighttime,
and I'm on my own with him.
And who asked you to do that?
Bless you. It was really sweet.
He said, can you share your location with me when you're out on your own walking with Benji?
And I said, I'm more than happy to do that.
I said, however, I don't know how to do that.
So you'll have to do it for me.
So I gave Gorka my phone and you went onto the WhatsApp and you did it.
And then as you handed it me back, he went, Gorka.
And I went, what?
And you said, I'm in your phone as Gorka.
So I said, well, yes, because that's your name.
And you were like, oh, it's just, it's so businesslike.
And I said, well, what am I in is yours?
And he went, this.
And it said, gem and two love hearts next to my name.
And you were, you were offended that I didn't have,
what else can I put you in my phone now?
Is that your name?
I didn't get offended.
I just, I mean, knowing you, you can't even hug so it makes sense.
I mean.
I don't know what I can, what else I can.
I let you call me goreke, you might have a prick.
Like, I don't know what else I could save you are.
Do you want me to put a heart, gorks?
Gorks.
Do you want me to put a heart next to it?
No, no.
I usually have you as a-a-a-a-jama.
Why, uh-a?
Because then it's my first contact on my list.
So if something happened, I don't need to search.
I just go to the...
Or something happened to me.
The people who get my phone,
they got the first contact, it would be a-a-a-jammer,
so they know who is their contact.
You didn't know that, isn't it?
No, I just have a star next to my mum,
sort of for a favorite.
Yeah, but if you don't have favorites,
if you go like a-a,
It stays always the first contact of your list.
When did you change my name to the Loveheart?
How long has it been like?
Because I saved your number like the first few days of Strictly.
We all had a strictly group WhatsApp.
So when I got everyone's numbers,
so that's why I put you as Gawker.
I'm not going to put you as Gawker future father of my child,
am I?
I just put your name.
I used to have Gemma Big Tits, but then I changed it.
Oh, okay.
So now Gemma saggy Tits.
Yeah.
When did you change it?
I don't remember.
A long time ago.
Oh, bless you for doing that.
I bet you did it all chuffed.
No, I think it was Gem.
When you were missing me.
It was Gem and then when we go together, I used to call you Gem.
I think it was Gem in the Love Heart.
And you have a picture in it also.
When you call me, it's your face.
See, I don't know how to do that.
I'd happily do that, but I don't know how to do it.
So then it's a picture of you.
So you can do that.
You do that for me then when we leave?
Yeah, so when you call me, it's...
Do you know when I ring to learn?
Do you know how you can personalize your ringtone?
Ringtone.
Also, you have a different ringtone than anybody else.
Like if you WhatsApp me, your sound is different.
So then I know, because sometimes you're working, you know, people, it's a WhatsApp.
I don't care.
But when it's a ringtone, it's your ringtone when you call me or you text me, I always know.
You're just in case it's something important.
See, I didn't know I could do any of this.
You'll have to do it all for me.
That's what I do.
I'll just give you my phone.
Just do what you need to do.
But when I ring Toulon and this backfired on him, it really backfired in him because he went off
because Toulin goes to church with his mom.
It backfired because it rung.
I rung him while he was in.
church without knowing, it comes through on his phone, hand on heart, it goes,
a twat is on the phone.
When I ring him, that's his ringtone, a twat is on the phone, and it went off in church.
So there you go.
Be careful how you're personal.
When you ring me, my one is just a ringtone, it's nothing voice or anything, eh?
Mine's, when anyone rings me, it's like, you are the sunshine of my life.
Because it was me a song.
It's by the line.
And your alarm is a song this morning and what is this?
My alarm is for you by Eva Cassidy.
I used to dance to that song.
Yeah, that's my alarm.
So when I heard this morning, I six in the morning, for you,
I was like, bloody I need to dance room by now.
I feel like I was training.
I used to have Cindy Lauper time after time to wait me up.
I like waking up to a nice little song as opposed to just a...
It should be birds.
No, because then Benji will start barking and try to bite him.
You know there is a thing now.
There's a new theme.
I think it's from...
I don't know if it's from up or from what.
You can put it in the sidebed, yeah?
And it recreates your waking up.
So you want to wake up at seven, yeah?
So it'll start waking you up half an hour before,
and then you start with the light.
So it's the light coming up, like it's the sunrise.
Right.
And the noise will be like a noise.
There's not like, ah, ah, ah.
So it will be like birds or noise like that, like waking you up noise.
And it's apparently very good.
Birth to present next year?
I know already my birthday present.
Coffee machine?
No.
What?
27.
2470.
I don't know what that is.
2.8.
I don't know what that is.
It's a lens.
Oh, camera.
What's your debate for me?
So my debate for you is the ULIF Venge's lead.
You've had that one before.
I've picked up myself doing that.
I always move his lead.
That's his training lead.
That's not his lead.
Still his lead.
No.
And do you know why that was there on that day?
It was because my courtesy car.
So I said to you, this is the true story,
I had to take my car in for a service
His hardness has been on the table for the last week
It's in my car now
It's being sent back because it'll fit him
That's the training lead
So it stays in my boot 24-7
My car was going in for a service
So I said to you
I'm taking everything out of my car
Leave it on the table
Because it's going back in tomorrow
I took my car to the garage
Got my car to the car for the day
As soon as my car was back from the garage
Everything went back in the boot
So you can't have that one
When did you do the car to the garage?
I can't remember
remember, but it was there a day.
When it was a car?
I don't know what day. It was the other week.
When it was the other week?
I'll have to check in my phone because I got a text message asking me to review the service,
which was fabulous.
This was yesterday.
The training lead isn't there.
This was yesterday.
No, it wasn't.
Yes, she was.
I mess with her yesterday.
Yeah, you probably had that picture in your phone for days.
No, I wasn't.
I literally do this picture from my WhatsApp camera and send it to her because she messes me.
When we go back to the car
I can go back
I can go back two weeks
She's been asking me for two weeks
Did Jemah left the lead anywhere
And as I do her notice
As we mentioned
She's been actually quite wood
I had been spot on with it
And then I said she messes media
It's like
Do you have anything
I said oh look what I found
And it was there
Tell you where it will be
Where the sun don't shine
Who do you agree with
Who's right

Sorry, it's like the other day.
When I said to you, should me to take Benji?
Yes, I want to take Benji.
We have two hangers in the back of the door for the leads.
Three leads.
None of them were in the place.
Where are there on the place?
On your booth.
In my boots?
No, that's not the place to be.
The place to be is on the late place.
So then if someone needs them, can get them.
I don't need to go in your booth and get the leads.
Benji loves being in my booth.
What do you say?
We were saying last week about words we pronounce wrong.
What do you call it?
A booth.
The booth of the car, no?
It's a boot.
It's in like what you put on your shoe, on your feet.
B-O-T.
B-O-T.
Boot.
I found you was the booth.
B-O-O-T-H.
No.
Are you sure?
Jeez, I don't know.
I'm only English for 41 years.
It's a boot.
Yeah, a car boot.
Have you ever had a car boot sale?
Do you have car boot sales in Spain?
No.
No.
We go to Mercadillos.
So what do you do?
You put your car somewhere?
No, Mercadillos.
What does that mean?
Mercadillos are a market.
Oh, okay.
So in the UK, we do a thing called a car bar bar.
boot sale.
I know.
You would love it.
You would love them.
No, I don't.
You can make about at least
40 quid on a car boot sale.
Yeah, that's why I don't.
Because one of,
every one of my idea
would be at least 40 pounds.
Yeah.
And you sell them for one pound,
two pounds, yeah.
Oh, I used to love a car boot sale.
He goes all the time.
Yeah, they're good.
I didn't give out the WhatsApp number,
but you can WhatsApp us any time as well.
On 07-603-9-8.
We've gone all posh.
Should we sort of someone's dilemma?
Yes.
We've had our turn. Now it's over for you.
So every single week we do a Gawker and Gemma dilemma.
You send us in the issue and we help you solve it.
Oh, this one is actually fancy this time.
We've had a lovely message on WhatsApp.
Yeah, so maybe it's like an audio.
Before we go to the dilemma, it says,
we're listening to you guys from New Zealand every week.
Thank you for being hilarious and entertaining.
And Gemma, you're such an inspiration.
Love you guys.
Thanks.
Louisa.
Oh, thank you, Louisa.
I want to love to New Zealand.
have actually said it's on our bucket list
New Zealand. We have a friend and she's from
New Zealand, didn't she? Yeah, Jamie.
And the pictures she posts, the scenery.
I'd love to do the whale watching in New Zealand.
Well, then you agree with me. We do wait until the
kids are already teens so we can go for three weeks
to Australia and New Zealand. What's the capital of New Zealand?
I know Australia, but I don't, New Zealand,
I don't... I want to go there.
Wakata, God.
I don't know the capital of New Zealand. I genuinely
don't know the capital of New Zealand.
No.
Queensland?
Is it Queensland?
Is it Queensland?
Queensland is the biggest city, maybe it's Queensland.
Hey Siri, what is the capital of New Zealand?
Wellington.
Oh, Wellington.
Queensland is... Queensland is in Australia.
Oh, is it?
You didn't know that until Molly just shouted Wellington.
Beef Wellington.
Beef Wellington.
Yeah, but Queensland is in Australia.
We could go New Zealand with the kids.
I'd love to take them there.
It's very safe, isn't it?
We should do three weeks Australia and New Zealand.
I've done Australia.
I loved it, but I've not done New Zealand.
I've done three Australians,
way.
Hey, I've only done one.
No.
We can't high five over people we've had sex with previous.
That's awful.
That's not nice.
High five again.
Yeah, we were young, dumb and full of...
No.
Okay, we've got a voice note.
We've had a voice note.
This is from Steve.
Steve, let's hear the dilemma.
Hi, Gemma.
or correct Steve from York.
My dilemma, married to my husband now for many, many years.
And one consistent bone of contention, well, there's two, but only one probably worth sharing,
is around the dishwasher.
So I tend to do most of the cooking at home.
And I'm, my view has always been that you load the dishwasher as you go.
So like if I have a cup of coffee and I'm going to work or whatever, then I always put that
mug into the dishwasher.
If we have like breakfast bowls, they're going to.
the dishwasher as they're finished with.
And when I'm cooking, load the dishwasher as I go.
So at the end of the day, slam it shut, turn it on, jobs a good.
Whereas my husband's view has always been to let the dishes stack up and then make,
like at the end of the day, then stack the dishwasher, then load the dishwasher.
So I guess my question is, what would you guys do?
Do you load it as you go or do you wait and then load?
it as like a job lot.
Obviously, if you're normal, when you do it as you go,
then I want to use this as evidence that actually I'm right.
Anyway, thanks for brilliant podcast.
Keep doing what you're doing.
I think you're both amazing.
All the best.
Oh, blessed.
Oh, thanks, Steve.
I want Steve's hubby and his dog to come around and have tea.
And then you and Steve's up, we love the dishwasher.
I agree with Steve, you know?
Firstly, we don't really do dishwashers.
We do it at Christmas or parties.
Or like, no, like big dinner.
If it's like more than just us having dinner.
Yeah, if it's more than us.
Friends and family will do it because it's quick.
And also you don't want to be cleaning when people is there.
But if day to day, I like to clean.
I don't like to do this.
You clean as you go.
Gorka will make himself a meal.
Leave the meal on the side, tidy the whole kitchen, the sink, put everything away.
And then sit to eat his meal once everything's tidy.
You'll do it after.
Yeah, I do clean up very well, but after I've eaten.
Because I don't want my food to go cold.
But none of us will, I think I agree with you.
And I think Jemma will agree with you.
Yeah.
That sounds something that with Jemma will.
do but she wouldn't do it so we have a similar situation in work so obviously in the radio
in our studio there's me mike and matt and sometimes chris so there's four of us in the room
we all have brews when i finish my brew i'll take it to the kitchen and i put it in the dishwasher
if i'm making myself a new one whatever toulin puts his cup on the side and then he'll get another
brew throughout the show and he ends up at the end of the show having to carry four or five cups
to the kitchen no when he could
just use, reuse it.
So it's kind of similar.
Yeah. I think like, for example, if you're using the mark and then you leave it there away
or leave it on the sink, you already leave it somewhere, yeah?
Then you have to take it from somewhere to put it on the dishwasher.
It's giving yourself an extra job.
It's a bit like the jamas washing job, you know?
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
When she falls the clothes and then she puts all that in one pile, take them upstairs and then do
another piles to put the kids everywhere.
So it's doing extra job.
It's very similar to that.
As if you've run that and me.
Yeah.
So that's why I say it would be something that she might do, but she doesn't do it.
Do you remember the Christmas just gone when we'd not used our dishwasher for a long time?
And we were hosting 15 people, weren't we?
So we had a few people around earlier and we realized the dishwasher didn't work.
And my mum was like, we need to get that fixed before Christmas.
She can't have 15 people and no dishwasher.
It's like, Mum, it just don't work.
You tried, no.
And then Peter, my stepdad, who's got a T-shirt saying,
Gang-Gan can't fix it
No one can
He'd come round
He said right
What's this dishwasher then
You literally went
Press one button
And it turned on
And he went
You were pressing the wrong button
Gemma
That's how long it had been
Since that
And I said
Peter
Thank you
I said
But also Gawker did attempt it
And he said
Well you're both
As bad as each other
That's why we're together
Yeah
None of us could do anything
I don't really do
This washer
I like to wash the clothes
The clothes
The clothes
The clothes
You don't, it's very rare you fill a sink, though, to wash.
You run the tap and do it all dead quick, don't you,
underneath?
Yes.
Because you don't like the water being dirty because you like washing in dirty water.
I just feel like, for example, like, if you put whole water in a pan and you fill it, yeah.
But you put a greasy pan, the grease goes in the water.
So then you're cleaning all the rest with greasy, oily water, which is nothing makes sense.
Apparently they say it says water, yeah.
But you're quick.
You're super, super quick.
Cleaning, yeah.
But thank you for your dilemma, Steve.
If we agree with you, you should stack as you go.
Yes.
Yeah.
What can we say?
You don't book before you chuck.
Stack as you go.
Steve's husband.
Or if not,
do one thing.
You just stack your stuff.
Leave his in the sink and then just put the dishwasher with all the stuff that he left on the scene there.
He will realize.
Just do your own, yeah.
Then he'll have to wash it.
That's quite mean, though.
We don't want you to fall out with him, Steve.
Sometimes, yeah.
Thank you for getting in touch, though.
We really, really appreciate it.
I'm glad you enjoying the podcast, even more so, on your dog walk.
We need the dog's name, we need breed, we need temperament, everything.
We'll have, we're going to bring Benji in, weren't we today, actually.
Yeah, we were going to bring him in.
But we're going to bring Mia in soon because she's off school, isn't she?
Not next week, the week after.
She's excited about it.
And she's excited.
We can't just, it was either asked Nana to step in because Tio will be at nursery.
You know what she did the other day in the car?
You know how she likes to put the music, yeah?
She went to put the music and instead of putting music, she put the podcast.
I know.
And I was like, are you listening to the podcast?
podcast is like, yeah, it's like, you're like, yeah, it's very good.
Oh, bless her.
Yeah.
Well, she'll be, she'll be on soon.
Special guests, Mia, and we will have to bring Benjian.
She'll be hilarious.

We've just literally found out about these now.
So are these actual National Days?
So it's been Pancake Day this week.
That's real.
But our producers want us to know
if we can figure out
if these other national days are real.
Okay.
So I've got a list for you
and you've got a list for me.
May the 14th is Dance Like a Chicken Day.
Is that real or not real?
May the 14th.
Dance like a chicken.
No real.
It is real.
Really?
Yeah.
Chichie chicken.
May 14th, you will dance like a chicken.
So you basically, you just go and start like to dance like that.
Yeah.
On May the 14th, that's what I want you doing.
Okay.
On May the 14th.
Do you want me to read the next one for you?
No, I go now.
Okay.
Sorry, me just put back myself after being a chicken.
That was a quite good impression, no?
Yeah.
Can you tell I had a fire when I was a kid?
Lick a leaf day.
Licker leaf?
Yeah.
Leaf, that's not a day, because that's not hygienic.
That's not real.
It's not real.
Number two for you, imagine lick a leaf day.
I don't know what's on that leaf.
Smell a stinky nappy day.
That's not real.
Do you do that every day?
It's not real, no.
Thank goodness.
Yeah.
The amount of nappies that you made me go like, look.
I know.
I know.
I know.
They always think.
If Tiago's done a massive messy pew,
I was going, Gorka, look at this.
No, but look, I was like,
Jamaica can smell it from like miles away.
You know?
I just want to share it with you.
You know what I love to do?
It's when friends come over and then they do a poo.
And maybe they're like,
I did it to write out once.
I remember writing our stylist.
He was at home doing my outfits for Madrid, yeah?
And Tiago did a massive one.
He was like, disgusting.
You could just smell it from outside the house.
Yeah.
And I changed him, yeah?
And he was just sat there on the,
I bet Ryan lost his mind.
Having a coffee and I have to go upstairs
So I changed him, wash him, came back
And the napi was so full
It was like solid
So I say throw it
And then in the middle of the way that I threw
I say Ryan's like
And yes, oh what's that?
It's like the coca
Oh I bet he was disgusted
Yeah I love to do that
Oh
For me that
It's like when you do the further than smell
It's the same thing
Yeah
We do
We do, Mia was in a potty at this age
No problem
She was so, Tiago was having none of it.
I know.
He tells us when he's pooing,
he'll go and hide in his little playhouse or behind the couch.
And then he goes, poop.
And he goes, Mommy, pooing.
And I say, let's get you in potty.
And he just goes, no, no.
My mum said you can get,
she's seen them these little tiny stickers,
the flushable stickers.
You put them on the bottom of your potty.
And when he wheeze on them, it changes colour.
So when an image comes so you can get like a dinosaur.
So it gets excited, no?
So when he wheeze on it, it turns into a dinosaur,
and then you flush it.
So I might get,
some of them. With Mia,
we didn't even potty train Mia, we just had the potty
out in the house. And she loved it, yeah.
And she just used to go, and remember, she used to go, push,
push, push, push.
Oh, she used to go, yeah.
And she just used to do it.
It's girls and boys the difference.
He just can't be asked.
He's more than happy to just crap his pants
and carry on with life.
Do you know what I mean?
I mean, he pushed himself and then you wash himself,
what are alive?
You know, it's like, someone has to wash me.
Yeah.
And then he goes, biscuit.

Who?

He does amazing Jack's, amazing Jack Sparrow.
I bet actually.
Like, there is a video of him on YouTube.
It's incredible.
Even like when I see him now, I always go like, hello Jack.
Because when he was on the Strigley, I used to go all the time,
Hello Jack.
Like Jack Sparrow, yeah.
Okay.
He's so good.
We need to get him on the pod doing that.

You take me her to school.
I take Tiago to nursery and then straight from the drop off, I walk Benji.
So I...
With no band.
Yeah.
Because I know I'm going to train when I come home.
I have me shower after I've trained and get ready for work.
So in the morning I just put my joggers on.
Hoodies.
Sometimes I don't even have a bra on a dog walk.
And the other day, it was yesterday, I was thinking,

Well, you have one more.
