Mushroom tea? Yeah, what's wrong with you? No, what's wrong with me? What's wrong with anyone celebrating in December? You're still in hibernation mode. Animals are still hibernating. The ground is dead. Nothing's going on.

Now is the real new year. The spring equinox. It's an arcadian rhythm now. Everyone will be in such a better mood. It's not very spring in here, to be honest, because the weather here is not very great. No, but it's lighter at night. We go three days of sun a couple of weeks ago,

So, because it's the new start of a cycle. It's the spring equinox. It's circadian rhythms better. Lighter night, lighter mornings. Animals, plants, everything's coming alive. To be honest, it makes a difference, you know, when I got to pick up here from school and it's like light. It's the natural circle.

It's the natural, it's not the man-made calendar. Oh, this December, Malar. So soon we will have to change. change the clocks, no? Yeah. From now on, I will have to have the shadows and the blinds down because at 5.5 a.m. will be like, bright. Yeah, I'll be out in my ice bath.

And I will be moaning about how bright it is I can sleep. Yes, whereas I'll be taking it all in. Love it. When it comes to the night, I'm the morning owl. You're the night owl, aren't you? No, I'm up every day before you. Not like... Because I want you to let you wake up.

That's what I mean. No, I'm not saying it's a bad thing. I naturally wake up... Me too. I was awake at six in the morning. I didn't want to stand up. But you will lie in bed until seven if you can. You'll just chill.

Whereas I'm, once I'm up, I'm up. Wherever going to bed, you can watch a series, you can chill. I'm in bed. I'm like, no. Last night, when you went to bed from watching... I can't remember. I fell asleep watching Yellowstone. Yeah, so I was already flared out.

I woke up this morning with my headphones behind my head in my head in the red light glasses and in my back. But I love... When it's like this, I can get up at R5. Me too. Four o'clock, half foot. I can jump out of bed. Me too.

I don't have a problem to go to the wake up in the morning when it's sunny. Gives me energy. Remember last summer I was running at 5.30 in the morning? Whereas in the winter, you only get up early for winter if you're going to the airport. I'm a person that I live with the sun. If like from a week to week or within a week, just the sunlight will completely change my whole system and mood. Because if I have sunlight, like hot weather, like if I go on, remember when we go on holidays? Yeah.

I could be finishing the tour and now when I say on holidays and I have like a boost of energy and I can be up every day. So do not think it makes sense as to why New Year should be then? Because why would you put pressure on people to start resolutions and give up things and be strict with things in the depth of winter? I just think that we should just... Now everyone's so much more positive. You know what it makes sense for me? It makes sense that we should be in a place that we have sun like in Tenerife.

Well, hopefully we will be because... Or like Majorca. That's what we've set ourselves to go. goal this year, haven't we? We've been saying it for over a year now. We're hoping to get a place in Mallorca. And we're now, but it's just finding the time to go and view them. We've seen some online.

And the company, we're going to help us to find a place. If you're an estate agent in Majorca, please contact us because we've contacted loads of different ones and we see them online and they look amazing, but you can't buy a property just from seeing it online. Yeah, it will happen like in Amazon, you know.

What you see and then what you get. And we need to find time to go out and spend a good three or four days there. I want another local area, how close it is to the beach, make sure we're not living next door to any idiots or murderers, do you know what I mean?

It's got to be a nice place. Yeah. But that is the goal for this year and we're setting it now. My New Year's resolution is to have a place in Mayorka. And we'll do a pod from Miyorka then. Oh, the summer pod.

Yes. We can do the summer pod. Lost in translation in the beach. Yes. Lost in the beach. Yes. We can get on the beach to sponsor us. We'll all go on the beach.

And there you go. We'll do it from the villa. Top plays, nice bikinis. Vikinis? Yeah. Your tits out. Burkinis? Yeah.

Bikinis? Yeah. My knockers out. Yeah. Oh. Oh, no. I love to do this way. I know how much annoys because I love to do it.

It does annoy me. That and when you do the helicopter at the top of the stairs. I think is that something all men do? Probably. I think all men do that, don't they? Yeah. Tiago does stuff like that at the minute, does he goes boobies Oh, have a funny memory

And tries to jab at boo. Now that you said that, I remember we were on tour, yeah? We were in one of the tours And we used to have ice baths, yeah? Yeah I don't even know if I should say this, but Your balls will touch your spine with an ice baths, won't they? So anyway, so we have ice buckets, yeah?

When we finish the show and we go in the ice buckets So mostly the time it was just the boys doing ice baths, yeah? Or fear of the boys and then Karen and Lubar and sometimes Yovita used to go and do the ice baths and we used to have one for the girls and one for the boys yeah

because separately changed rooms and stuff like that but this location there was no space in the girls' room so Gina the massage therapist put both in the boys' showers area and we have like three showers

or four showers and it was two showers for showering and two for the ice baths So it was one ice bath, shower, shower, ice bath. He said to be both together. So I remember it was Nikita and Vito, one of the ice bath together to go quicker. Yeah. Yeah. And then I was in the shower because I already finished the ice bath. And then it was someone else in the shower and then the ice bath.

Yeah. So the girls run in to go in the ice bath. So they go like, oh, it's busy. Where is the ice bath? I think it's the next one. And I was in the shower. No. So I was close.

Yeah. It's the other one of the guys who was showering, he thought it was just for the boys. So he was having a shower with no clothes, yeah? So the girl went to look at the ice bath. No, no, it's the next one. And the next one was the guy showering, like he came to the wall, yeah? And the girl was like, oh, he was like, oh, sorry, he started to do, cluck, cluck, cluck, cluck, cluck, cluck, cluck.

Oh, no. He started helicopter in. No, no helicopter, just going. Flaping it. Side to side. The only thing you could hit it was this. Oh. Gosh.

It was so funny. Was it Luba, he did it? He saw it. It was like, oh! I bet Louba was like, please. She wasn't shocked. I did this shit for breakfast. You can imagine Luba, can't you?

She's brilliant Loobs. Yeah, it was so funny. That's how genuinely how they struck the law. Everyone's just a close-knit family to all kinds of stuff. Anyway, after this... So it isn't, well, you've answered your own question. It isn't just you who does that at the top of the stairs. Yeah, but no, it's a lot of people.

A lot of men do it there. Everybody, that's not a daddy copy. I don't know how you call that. The elephant? No, I don't know. Girls don't do stuff like that. Yeah, you can't. I know we can't, but we could with our boobs,

but I think it'd hurt. Well, do you remember the time that you were in the table? I hope in the counter. I slapped him on the counter. And you didn't have a brand new one. I go and go look and you were like, dush. Yeah, slapped him on the counter. It hurt.

There you go. If you exercise without a proper bra on, it wrecks me. Yeah, there you go. there you go Anyway Welcome to Lostin Translation Nice catch up Nice catch up

About Cox and Tits Should we go with Rebecca This is from Rebecca But We've got to read out a few messages From some international listeners Yes

Here you go Gorka Rebecca Listening from South Africa Oh I love South Africa It's beautiful She says I'm at work I love your show

Oh my gosh Hello All the way in South Africa That's amazing isn't it I saw with Great White Sharks in South Africa. I love South Africa Marbaquise. Really?

So good. They have a specific name, but I don't know how is it called. But they are very good. Is it called the Blochranes? Bungerunge. Borkruns. It was like the third highest bungee jump. Oh, you did that also, no?

I did that in South Africa, and I swam with Great White Sharks, and it was one of the best experiences of my life. You know, the Great White Sharks, its eyeball is like the size of your fist. And they come right up close and then dart away. and the mouth's permanently open so you just see teeth like I couldn't believe it you love sharks

I'm a member of a shark shark group on Facebook Gorky always laughs at me are lying bed genuinely do don't I and I'm reading facts about great whites Or then she wakes up the next morning

I was like Gokka I couldn't sleep last night and there was no wonder for the last half hour before you were in the bed you was wearing videos of sharks attacking people or being attacked

So I love Shark Week and I'm a member of a Facebook group all about sharks. We love sharks. The movie Jaws. I just think they're magnificent creatures. They've been around as long as the dinosaurs have. Really? Like it's a prehistoric creature. How can you not be fascinated with them?

The other day, she showed me this video, the Csorese, it was like, you know when you go on a catamaran on like Jodz? And they were on the boat. And this guy jumped on the water and a shark comes in. He's trying to get out of the water, but the shark bites him. He climbs and. to the catamaran, someone is helping him, helps him, pulls him out of the water. He's got no leg. He has no legs.

The guy who is pulling it gets scared, lets him go. And then he goes back to the water and gets bite again. I'm like, why would you do that? Because he picked him up and saw him and he panicked and let go. Oh, gosh. But I just think it really upsets me that people still kill sharks just to eat the fin. I can't bear it. Literally go, gore-dinosaur dinosaurs, prehistoric dinosaurs, sharks,

Alligators, crocodiles, lizards, millions and millions of years of being here with us. And I just think, I'd love to hug one. Obviously, I never would. I don't encourage you to. But, yeah, I got to swim with them in South Africa. So thank you, Rebecca, for getting in touch from South Africa. We're reigniting that memory. Do you want to read Eilas?

Issa, sorry? It's a Eoyana. Ioana. Oiana. Oiana? That's pretty. That's pretty. That's a pretty name.

It's Basque. Oiana. What is it? So it's Royana. You pronounce like Ojanah, like with the Y. Ojanah. And Rocky, the dog. Oh, look!

Photo below. Oh, look at Rocky. He looks like a beagle, does he? Yeah, so they speak Basque, I think. They are from, like, hello, Gem and Gorka. This is our little family. We live in a little city called Asti Garaga, near to San Sebastian. Oh, San Sebastian, lucky.

So, Asti, Asti Garaga. Can you say that? Astiara. Astiara. Asti Garaga. Garaga. Astigaraga. Very good. Osondo.

Osondo. Osono. Very good. Ni'Artus and Sebastian in the Basque Country, where I'm from. Yes. Best food in the world

in the Basque Country. We love your podcast. We hear you weekly and love with you guys. We adore you spontaneously so much. Spontaneity. Yes.

Spontaneity. Here in Astigaragraga is the season of Sidrearias. What does that mean? Sidreias is a drink it's made with apples. From apple. Like an apple spritz?

No, it's no apple spread. It's like, it looks like a cross between a beer, but from apple, yeah? Apple cider. Yeah, kind of like that. And it's very famous in Asturias and in our Basque region. Yeah, but it's mainly, it comes from, I think, if I'm not wrong, correct me. I think the Cidra is from Asturias. Yeah.

The same have you ever been in one? Yes. So do you mean like where they grow? Yeah, it's like the bar rails and everything, yeah. Okay. But we have it also. You know how you go to the pub and you go to your roasts? Yeah.

On Sundays. So we will have that in the Sidreras. So Sidrearias is like a huge pub where you can have like roast their lunch or dinner, but it's all around the Sidrearia. And they have this huge, normally they are very wide and long. And you have these huge barrels, yeah? And then you go from the barrel and you get it straight from the barrel. Oh, nice.

And you drink it. Yeah. And it's like, you know, like the big barrels. for the beer. Yeah. Like that, but for the Cedar. She says here, it's, um, you can enjoy cider. It's fermented apple juice in a wooden barrel.

There you go. And when the shout of, what does that say? Toxt. The Choched. Chodged is heard. Yeah. Everyone gathers around the cupella, which is the barrel. To fill their glasses directly from the tap.

Yeah. The meal is traditionally fixed and shared. Yeah. Featrizo, chorizo cooked in cider. Yeah. A cod omelet. Yeah. Oh, fried cod with peppers and a thick ribby steak, followed by...

Idiazabal cheese. Yep, I couldn't pronounce that. Cheese with a quince jelly and walnuts. Nowadays, they have a vegetarian menu, so I could come with you. Quince is like membrillo. Quince? Yeah. Normally, you have Idiazabal cheese with membrillo in Nwethyst.

That does sound... That sounds like a lovely day out, as Garibald, I would say. That is my idea of a great day out. Yeah. Oh, look at the picture. She says, thank you for making the day funnier with your podcast. Skerikasco. Skerikasco.

What does that mean? Skerri casco means much as a lot ofias. Much as gratitude. Oh, thank you. Thank you for that lovely photo. Yeah. Oh, they look like a proper little happy, content family. Yeah.

Thank you very much. So we've got listeners in South Africa, New Zealand and the Basque country. I want you to go to San Sebastian. Oh, I'd love to. It's beautiful. Yeah. It's only an hour and 15 from Bilbao. Yeah, I'll go.

We can go. Yeah, we can definitely go. Armed up for that. Tapas. Ooh, pinchos. I mean, the lost in translation is translating. Yeah. I like it.

Hopefully it's not getting lost. Yeah. Do you want to do our debates for the week? Yes, well, you go first. So my debate is something really, really petty, but it really, really annoyed me. Tell me. Now, when I start saying this, don't interrupt and say, no, it was because this, this and this.

So we have our sink. sink everyone does. Next of the kitchen sink we have the tray where you stack your plates, your knives and forks. I don't even know what that's called that. Yeah, the drainer. The drain. And on top of that, so that if you took that away, you just have the marble work top and it's got little ridges in it which are slightly tilted for water to drain out of. We've got a plastic tray on ours, haven't we? With a plate stacker. And Mia and Tiago have vitamins in the morning. They vitamin C in the morning and magnesium before bed and I give it them in a syringe. That's what they have it in. It's not a capsule. It's a syringe one.

And I gave me a hers and Tiago hadn't had his. So I washed the syringe. Yeah? Because he wasn't having his from later on. And I put it in the ridge because I thought the water from it will drain away. It won't clog. It won't get messy. You walked over. Literally. Fliggard. No, he picked it up and he went, Gemmy. you see this? And I went, yeah, you went, just put here. And you put it in the plastic, can train a bit. Yeah. Contain a bit. And he went, it's just a small movement from here to here.

And I looked at you and went, Tiago's not had his yet. And the reason I put it there was so the water from it would drain off. Yeah, but you know what is the problem? It's near the edge. No, it's not even. That's just a movement. Just from here to here, it's like, it's like, less than a roller. But the water would have collected in the train.

rather than drain off into the sink. That's why I left it on the ridge so that the water doesn't clog. No, because you know what happens also? The water, from that thing that you think, doesn't go there, stays there. Because the one who is wiping every two seconds, all of that is me.

It's the same thing that when you get the brush with the soap in the sponge. I'll leave it over the sink. Instead of flick it, yeah, to drain the water and then put it on that thing that you have, the ubalm. The drainer. Yeah, I bought a drainer.

So then everything was in the water. wet, yeah, you put it on the counter, like half into the sink, half out. Yes, so it drains into the sink. No, it doesn't. Because sometimes what happens is the soap leaks into the other place, into the counter, yes.

And it looks like all wet and not dry and tidy. But it's a sink. It's okay, don't worry. It can be wet, it's a sink. Next time, not the sink. Oh, smashy face. Not the sink, the marble thing. Next time that you do it, don't worry. I'll take a video and a picture and I add it in the podcast. So then

There's a proof of what you do. There's a proof of how pedantic you wanted me to move it two inches. No, it's just to be tidy and dry. Okay, well, that's my, that's my debate. What's yours? Do you have one? Have I been good again? My debate is this, for example.

For example. How you did that? Me leaving things around. I've not left anything around recently. No socks. My footband from the gym, I took back up to the gym yesterday. I got the mat out to stretch on, put that straight back. No, you don't want to notice me, I just realized it now.

What? Your stickers for the nose thing. In the morning you come down and you stick them somewhere, and then you get for the other day, I went to get water to give Tiago, and it was one of her nose stickers, a sticker on the glass of the Tiago's water. No, that's because, right,

I sleep with a nose opener. It's a metallic thing. It's only on Amazon, and you put two stickers on the side of your nose, and then you attach the little plastic, metal, it goes, dunk, and it visibly widened your nostrils, and it promotes nasal breathing, and I sleep so much better with it. How old you do that?

I saw it on a... No, you did. So I sleep so much better with it, and the first thing I do in the morning is I take the nose bit off, because Benji licks my face, and I'm worried I'll lose it. I take it off and put it on the side, and then I'm a bit tired. So then when I get up, I forget I've got the stickers on, so I come down and, I'm pottering about, feeding the birds, doing whatever. I sometimes go in the ice bath with it on.

And then I'll sometimes think, oh gosh, I've still got it on. Yes, I know. I found one. So I take it off. So I take it off. Yeah, so I just take it off. And wherever I am, whatever room I'm in the house, it just gets stuck on something so that you'll find it. I could be, if I'm outside, it's getting stuck on the garden fence.

If I'm in the kitchen, I can stick it on a banana peel. But why? So then, because it annoys you. That's why. And Tiago goes, mum. on what's that? And he'll remove these stickers. You sleep in a tape, a nose tape. Same, yeah. Yeah. It's similar. It is. If I wear it, it keeps falling through the night. It made me laugh the other night because Gorka, you instigated at a cheeky mum and dad time the other night.

And I was like, oh, okay. And I looked at you and you had your nose tape on. And I said, you're not going to take that nose tape off. And you're like, no, I'm too tired. It helps me breathing, you know. when I go down there that's the level of effort when I have to dive into Abnera Oh gosh helps me breathe it

I go like Anyway Those are Those are our debates So let us know who you agree with Lost in translation Atbauermedia.com.com Or WhatsApp us on 07

6103998 Or follow us on social media At lost dot in dot podcast I'm just cracking myself up You crack yourself up High five. As if you did a muff diving gag? Yes.

Yeah. I'm going to have the world record on apnea. We've got, what's apnea? When you go under without breathing. Why do you call it apnea? It's apnea, how you call it? When you dive with our system of oxygen, you go this, and you have to dive. Right.

That's called apnea. That's just, that sounds a ridiculous thing to do. Yes, apnea. I know they have competitions for it because someone keeled over recently from doing it, isn't it? It's like a free dive. Yeah, apnea. That's just stupid. But it's not freely died really because you know how they do it

You have a harness connected to a rope And the robe is weighted Of course it is you need to be able to get back up if you need Yeah, because you get lost, they're not to rescue Oh, you could die Yeah, that's your choice, you do an apnea Oh, you could get eaten by a shark There's no shark when they do it

Shark week Can't wait for Shark week Genuinely can't wait for Shark week In fact there's a new thing started on Netflix, dinosaurs I got a shark And that's very, very good. I love stuff like that. Oh, so that's the dilemma.

Our dilemma is finished, yeah? You've been very good. Also, I like your trousers. These are really comfy these. I'm going to get one in every colour. Nice. Can you sort your wardrobe for example? That's horrible.

You need to sort that out. You can't even look in that wardrobe. Do you know what? I did say to Gorka this weekend, you'll be very pleased to know it's happening. I'm going to get out every single item of clothing I own and do a keep. or charity.

I'm going to try it on. If it fits and I'm comfortable to keep. If not, it'll go to charity. I want to do a full clear route. And then I'm going to ask Ryan, the stylist, to just go and get me a full new wardrobe. I don't need to be with him. I don't want to try anything on.

I can't be asking on of that. You have to try it. Absolutely not. Unless I'm shopping for food, I'm not shopping. I can't stand clothes shopping. Buy stuff for the kids, yes. I hate. Changing room mirrors are awful.

They make you look like shite. The clothes are always on the wrong hangar. It's always the wrong sizing. Can I go with him? Yeah, genuinely. Take my card, go and get what I need to get. Honestly. I'll take your card.

And I'll have a brand new wardrobe. I'm more than happy for that to happen. I saw your shoes. I have so many shoes that I have to get rid of and they're new. That's what I mean. There you go. Should we solve a dilemma from one of our lovely listeners? I think we should.

This week's dilemma comes from Alfie and he says, Hi guys, I've got a dilemma. I need your help in how to tell my girlfriend what's happened. She's always telling me to not play football in the house with the kids. But while she was out last week, we had an impromptu game in the kitchen. I went to put a free kick into the top corner against my five-year-old son, who was the goalkeeper, and ended up accidentally. smashing a crystal fruit bowl that her nana bought us as a present.

My girlfriend loves this fruit bowl but hasn't noticed yet that it isn't there. I've been grabbing my kids with sweets to not tell her, but I know at some point one of them will spill the beans. How do I let I know gently what happened and that it's now wrapped up in a tea towel in the loft? Keep up the good work on the pod. It's one of the highlights of my week, Alfie. Alfie, foul play. I need I remember.

Red card for you, Alfie. And you did do that, yeah. but it was a glass of water smashed and went all over the house played football You look at me And me I was like it wasn't me No but recently

Apart from that one Recently we did another one I was playing with Tiago Remember And the whole pot in the corner Yeah The orange stand Why do you have to play football in the house

No we didn't play football I was playing with Tiago And Tiago went to hide And he hid behind And then to try to run away He pushed her And how long had I had that for It was a vase

I'm not joking, it was about a meter and a half tall, this beautiful vase that I'd had for about 12 years. No, I got it from prospect. I've had it a long, long time. Not that one. And the feathers, the new, the vase was old, the feathers were new. I got some beautiful, like, bright orange, gorgeous feathers, look lovely. And the whole thing got smashed.

It was a dust of... Every time that you move them, the feathers used to, like, fleece everywhere. It was so, like... It was lovely. And you smash the whole thing. Alfie, the first advice for you, if I was in your situation, Alfa, the first thing I would do is get myself on Amazon or find out where it was from and try and replace it.

Fancy play football outside? Yeah, that would become in handy. But if you can replace it before she notices, I would do that, maybe speak to the nan. Say, oh, that bowl you got her, it's lovely. I want to get my mum one. I want to get my mum one. Where's it from? Find out where it's from and replace it.

Second of all... Or just say that you break it and you want to replace it. Yeah, but what's the backlash going to be? If it's the crystal one that are nangoda, it's the sentimental value of it. You're all right, you just throw anything away. I'm a bit of a hoarder when it comes to sentimental objects. Do you know what I mean?

That's why our loft is full of things. Yeah, I mean, because you want to keep her. You never know we'll need them. No. It's like we're close. When you haven't used it for more than a month, you know you're not going to use it. But I struggle even giving the kids clothes away

But why? It's clothes Yeah but Give it to someone else and need them I'm not asking you to throw them Into the bin Oh no they always go to They always go to the bleep-hol shop But what I mean is

But like the very very first cardigan Mia came home from the hospital in What are you gonna do with that? It's the tini-knit it's a beautiful little cardigan And it's the first thing she had on when she left the hospital You keep also the first napi that she pooing No Why? I've got me

I've got my dad's little pair of shoes my dad's very first pair of shoes that he ever wore. Just taking this pay for no reason. It's just a memory. Just keep it on your memories. No, because I might not have a memory one day. Take a picture. Take a picture of my own brain and hope I remember it.

No, a picture of the thin. No. You need to try and replace it, Alfie. Genuinely, that's what you need to do. Because if it's special, she's going to want it. If you do fess up, you need to do it in a way. I'm trying to think how you could make it sound like an accident without a football being involved, but you can't, can you?

unless there was a fly or something on the fruit you tried to swat it and accidentally smashed it that way Why are you killing a fly? You're not killing a fly, you're swatting it out of the way I would never kill a fly. You actually saw me the other day put a fly in a glass

I tracked a fly in a glass that was on the window put some paper behind it and let it free They only live for three days anyway flies When you brought that vase You just WhatsApp me a picture of it Didn't you? Yeah, it braked it. It happened, it happened Rather than wait to tell me when I got home

so you were in arm's length you just WhatsApp me a picture and went look at this with the hand over face emoji and I was expecting it to be like a little chipped mug or something and it was just to shattered bars everywhere Yes and I was the one who had to deal with the mess and hoover everything

You were the one who did it? What do you mean? I wasn't in the house when it happens. I didn't. Tiago did. You can't blame your son. Well he's the one who did it. He's not even big enough. He was like he hid behind and push it. Tiago, let's get your shoes on. No, no, run away. Come here.

He ran behind. Did he cry? Did he cry? No. He went like, uh-oh. Oh, my God. Yeah. Uh-oh.

That's what he did. And you had to tie it all up. Yes. And he was not only the crumbles of the thin. It was also the leaves. They get so thin. Yeah, the feathers. And I went like, Tiago.

Beautiful feathers. It was frigging expensive that as well. And then what happened? I got out trunk. It was so heavy. I put it in a plastic bag. But because he was broke and sharp and heavy, as soon as I put it in the bag,

he ripped off the bag, so he fell again and broke again. And then he went like, uh-oh. That's what he does. He looks and goes, uh-oh. Yeah, wow. Oh, this is so cool. Oh, yeah.

He keeps saying that at the minute about everything. This is so cool. Yeah. His food. We went into a burrow the other day. The church. Oh, so cool. Sir Robert Peele.

statue you said it was so cool but no my advice alfey first of all thank you for getting in touch thank you for taking the time to send us your dilemma we're being a bit useless with it you've got to try and replace it and if not you just need to be honest and say I'm really sorry I know it meant a lot to you

can I do anything to help you she'll probably say no not speak to you for three days but there's nothing else she can do other than don't play football in the house Alfie come on I'll say you should know that if that was me I will tell you straight away I'll break it or it broke Let's replace it

Instead of trying to replace it Like you try to hire it Just be honest Just like listen We were playing We shouldn't Learn the lesson I'll broke there

I'll buy a new one But as he learnt the lesson though Because she's always telling him Not to play football in the house Yeah but what is Well tell me With the kids in this country raining every day

Where you want to play There's no bad weather Just bad clothing Get them outside in the rain Just put a hood up Okay next time there is like 3 degrees and it's raining loads, yeah?

We play us out with the kids and I tell you. Okay. When they come inside like this. Let us know what you think. Do you agree with Alfa? Do you agree with Gawker? Do you agree with me? What should he do?

Do you don't agree? Have you been in this situation? I've been. Let us know. Lost in translation at bowenmedia.com. AtuK. lost. In dot, dot, podcast or if you want a voice note,

us and be in our dilemma next week, you can do. It's O'd double seven, six 10. 98. 98. Should we play a game? Yes, I like this game. So today's game is a good old-fashioned,

Would You Rather? We play this at work, but in an awful thing. The options are awful. So it'd be interesting to know what our options are. Henry, our producer, has given us a list of would-you-rather scenarios, and we have to say which one we choose. All right. Should you go first?

Okay. Would you rather have spaghetti for hair or garlic bread for feet? Spaghetti hair. Feet for me Because at least you can Look at like braids You know so you can like You know like

Rustafaris No mine would be feet First of all you can hide them So it wouldn't matter And second of all Imagine how much of an epic swimmer I'd be with garlic bread If I had circular garlic bread

I'd be able to swim with the sharks No It says garlic No Garlic bread Yeah So you can have a bagetta garlic bread Or you can have the pizza garlic bread

So you could cut it Into the shape of a flipper And you could hide it I bet you dream about it this, no? I do. Oh, you will eat your own feet. I'd have garlic bread for, oh, I could smash some garlic bread now. I love garlic bread.

No, I bet you do, yeah. Sting after. Would you rather always be too hot or be too cold? Too hot? I would rather be too hot, yeah. Yeah, because... You can cool down. Yeah, and at least if you're too hot, you can strip off.

You can just... Not in a sexual way. I didn't do anything. With that look. If you're too cold, I find if I'm too cold, I tense up. Your shoulders come up to your ears and you're like, oh, everything aches when you're too cold. But if you're cold, just put clothes on. Make a fire and then you sleep better because you sleep in a cold room, which is what you're going on.

I think if you're too hot. If you're too hot, you can never sleep and settled. If you're in the snow and it's too cold, you just put like three pieces of socks, yeah? No, I'd still be too hot. But what happens if you are in the desert, you are very hot, you don't have clothes already. You just give me shit for thinking too much about garlic bread on my feet. You're going in depth with this. Yeah.

Think of the feeling of the ice bath for more than two minutes. Think of living on a sauna 24-7. Oh. At 80 degrees. I'd still rather be too hot. Would you rather, every time you taught it was in song or every time you talked it was by shouting? Shouting as well, I do normally.

You do that anyway, I was going to say. I'm Spanish. Mind of be song. You can sing and talk to me like singing. No. That is very theatrical. That is one thing that you don't know about me. I do sing.

Yeah. You were shocked, weren't you when you found that? It's very theatrical. I used to be terrible, but I've got a bit better. Can you do it like theatrical? Come on. No, what, do you want me to? What can I? Tell me. Tell me. Speaking of singing, I took me here to school the other day

and when she gets in the car with Gawker, she always has Taylor Swift on. We love now Taylor Swift. She loves the red album and she got in my car the other day and I'd done that thing where the night before I'd come home from work I was listening to Ice Cube and I had it on full blast and I turned the engine off before I turn the radio off before I turn the music off

so when I turned the car back on she got in the car it was Ice Cube and it was part of his NWA days so it was quite a sweary rap and she just rolled her eyes and she went oh mum you and your rap

that's what she said to me fair play she was like Papa has Taylor Swift on when we're in the car she asked for it I know and if I have Olivia Dean

I know you like Olivia Dean since don't you talk to me Talk to me. Talk to me. Talk to me. Would you rather look like a fish or constantly smell like one? Be like, look like a fish.

Smell like fish. Imagine. Would you look like one? Imagine, yeah, but it depends on which fish. It depends on which fish. Imagine you, walking 24-7 with a can of tuna on your nose. No. There you go.

Yeah, so it looked like. Because again, if you put shades on, I could wear a hat, I could hide it. It can be like cool, cool, Nemo. Would you rather have five minutes? conversation with your past self or future self? Future self. What would you say to your future self though? I'd rather have the future unknown.

I'd chat about the past things that we did and laugh about them. People who live in the past genuinely tend to be more depressed. Nostalgia. And nostalgic because they're thinking about a time that is completely gone. It's never going to come back so it makes them in a low kind of mood.

You do that lot, you know? So that's what happens. People live in the past, they become depressed. People who live in the... the future tend to know people who live in the future tend to be anxious and on edge because they're forever wondering what's coming they're not at ease and that's why you should live in the present because you don't know what's happening but mind you i can with it when was it was it last out the night before when i burst out crying that benjie was going to die one day even though he

hadn't died yeah just two days ago i was with my headphones watching the food but then i can see her kind of in benjian crying i was like what's wrong like Nothing, I just saw something makes me very sad because Benji's going to die and I was like, yeah, we're not now. No, it just dawned on me. It hit me.

I was, he had his paws on my shoulders and he was being so lovely and I was looking into his eyes like looking into this little dog's soul and then I remembered how painful it was saying by to Norman and Ollie and I just went, and I just thought,

one day, I'm going to have to go through that again. And you know we're all going to die one day? Yeah, I know, we won't die. We just go home. It's just a temporary goodbye. Great. But I just thought, it hit me and I thought, oh my God, I'm going to have to go through that again. Yeah.

So it made me cry. It must be my hippies. I blame it on my peri's, my peri menopause. Would you rather lose all your money or lose all your memories, all my money? Easy. Yeah, easy one that. Would you rather be able to fly or be able to breathe under the water? Breathe under water.

Get me with them sharks. Yes. I used to want to be a mermaid. Or fly. Depends of the speed. No, I wouldn't want to fly. Yeah. They're freezing.

You can go more place. than through the sea. No, imagine... Do you know what I would love to do? Not fly or not that. I would be a lot... I would love... To be able to do now like this,

bam! And say, like, I'm in Spain. Yeah. All hold hands together and like the film jumper. Yeah. But with the sea, if you could go under water, I think there's only somewhat like

28% of the ocean that we've explored. Maybe I might be wrong on that, but there's still a huge, over 50% of the ocean. It's too deep. We don't know what's down there. So like Meadowdon and all them, they could exist.

Genuinely. And in the water. It's too dark and too deep. We can't physically go down. And there's been sightings of mermaids, but they're like, it's called a siren. They're quite aggressive. It's not like an aerial.

I mean, the real mermaid tale is tragic. The Anne's Christian Anderson one. She passed away, bless her. Yes. But they call a siren, and there has been sightings. You remember that sea? It's a series that you used to watch.

Yes. Yeah. Oh, yeah. So get me under that. That was during lockdown, remember? Yeah. The last one. Would you rather give up coffee for life or your favourite food for life?

I'd give up my food for life. Coffee gives me energy. It promotes me life. Also, coffee is one of my favourite things, so, no, yeah. What is your favourite food? Many. If you had to give up one food, he said last night, he said, in fact, you let me down. We've been doing really well on our, we said a few weeks ago,

we're not going to have any processed sugar and we haven't. We've been really, really good with it. Why I'll let you don't? But I'm on that kind of, I'm not like going sugar tea total at all, although I didn't have any dessert at the Brits. I was like, no, I'm good. But then last night you said, I don't know what it is.

I fancy some digestives. And you put it in my head. And he went upstairs and I thought, I'm going to frigging do it. I made myself a massive bowl of porridge, put some chocolate protein in, and then I crushed a load of Biskof. I put Biscop's bread. Biscopheff, Biscop's.

And then just to top it off, a big spoonful of jam on top of it. And I sat and ate it all on the couch. I was thinking, Gawker's going to do the same. He came down, he didn't do it. You didn't have anything. No, it was just a thought that you shared with you. But you put that thought in my head.

I thought, bollocks to this, I'm going in. And then I got in bed. I had the most chronic headache and the worst sleep, all because of that sugar. Yeah, no, I was fine after. Yeah. I just said it. Said it, passed it to me and I did it.

I think that was hung there at the time because I had dinner at 5.30. Yeah, you had an early tea, didn't you? I'm trying to have dinner three hours before bed. You know that rule 3-2-1? That's why I have my dinner at work on the radio. They go mad at me in the studio. So why do you have porridge after when you get home? Because you put it in my head.

I wanted somewhere like sweet, so I thought I'd make a nice big bowl of porridge full of biscuits and jam and... Yeah. Even Mia said to me, why I'm having that now, Mom? And I was like, they're eating it going, I don't know. I just wanted it.
