There's a Spanish guy, right? One of the... Fuller Eglissias? No, he's the mayor of a town in Spain. Let me turn this off. He's a mayor of a town in Spain and he's praised the locals. Thank you for the lies, that's better.

He's praised the locals for... They organised a three-day rave over the Christmas New Year period, but they did it in like a really remote place in an abandoned warehouse. And a lot of people have said, it's a disgrace, it's this, is that. The local guy, the leader of the town,

Listen, it was safe. It was far away. Everyone was at a good time. Leave them to it. Another thing to like about Spain. Wow. It was, I'll give you the name with the town. One minute.

Let me put my specs on. La Seña. La Seña. So it was near the Catalonian town between Barcelona and Balencia. Did I say that right? Yeah, but I've never heard of this. I watch Spanish news every day.

He said it was a well-chosen location for a three-day rave. Imagine the smell in that warehouse after a three-day rave. after a three-day rave. I don't think you could last a three-day rave, could you? I couldn't. No. I don't think I could go to a rave now. I used to back in the day.

I used to love a good, you know, nightclub. But now I can't think of anything worse. I haven't heard about this. You need to get on the blow at the moment. At the moment, the only thing in Spain they are talking about is Julio Glesias. Oh, okay. Well, welcome to Lost in Translation. Vamos.

We solve one of your dilemmas. We each have a debate which you help us solve, something that's annoyed each other about each other in the week. Or maybe more than once.

But this week, what's going on this week? You're going away, aren't you? Well, I'm still sorry. from last week, to be honest. Yeah, you're high rocks. You enjoyed it. You absolutely loved it. You smashed it, as always.

Thank you. I was in London last week. You didn't love it as always. It's just very, very busy, isn't it? It was brilliant why I was down there. I had some really exciting meetings, you know. And it's very, very good. You know, I run a business, so I have to have my business head on in London, which I did.

Say that again? I run a business. That's sexy. I'm a business owner. Say one more time? In my glasses? Yes. I'm a business owner.

Let me put the pillow there. So I had to put my business head on and go and sit at a big table with a lot of important people and investors and explain what was on the agenda. And it was the whole time I was doing it thinking, please don't ask me any questions I don't understand because I don't know how long I can flag it for that I know what I'm doing. Why do you don't wear glasses in the night? And then why would I wear glasses in the night when my eyes are shut? Do you like me in glasses? These are my work glasses and I have to wear them now for our pod because we've got iPod. We used to have little cue cards.

When I look at a screen, my eyes got a bit funny. One turns in. My eyes. My eyes. My eyes. Yeah. My eyes. My eyes.

Everything that was with me is funny when you say, my house. Me house. I know, I should say my house, my mum. But it's my mum. My house. Or if it's Nina, our kid. Yeah. My sister.

I love it. I find it very cute when you speak like that. It's just my normal voice That's one of the things that attract me of you Do you know, I used to get on Instagram Well no, it's Twitter back in the day I don't have Twitter no more X, sorry, that's so much of a

X M-A-X X-M-A-S People used to message me and say You're really, really fit Until you start talking But we just can't deal with your accent And I used to think You're not fit with or without talking

You used to say that I don't really need to talk for that No, but I used to think I'll snide. You've not even spoke, and you're not attractive. But I'm glad you find it attractive. Because that's all that matters, right? You and Tom Hardy, no one else needs to.

I mean, trust me, that's what you get, you know. You're not going to get more than this. It doesn't, that's her due in effort. I didn't wear this in London. I was suited and booted from meetings.

The other day I said to her, Gemma, I feel like you dress up on a room in the dark with no mirror. What is I said? He said I was hung over. Yes, like, when you dress up, it's like you were hungover on a dark room with no mirror. Well, I see it as Erin Brokovich. You know, I'm Brokevich.

People used to give her shit for wearing local tops and saying she shouldn't be in skirts and this and that. She still got the job done. You know what? I don't know. I don't know. I remember years ago, a friend of mine, yeah. It was my student and he was quite older than me at the time, yeah.

He had three kids, like when I used to teach him, and I get on with him very well. His name was Louis, yeah? Yeah. And he was from where I'm from, and he moved to live in the city that I moved to live, yeah? Yeah. And he had two boys and the oldest was a girl and then two boys.

And they were married for like 25 years, something like that. but still having their own, like, old, like, date nights on their own. Oh, that's nice. He used to book, like, a hotel night for going for dinner to Madrid and they spend the night in a hotel. Like, they were single, yeah? Jicky pint. Yes, but, and he's still going to the gym and train,

and she used to go to the gym also, like, making... He looks after each other themselves, yeah? And he said to me once, like, that you married and you have children, doesn't mean you have to say let yourself go and don't make a net... I'm not telling them to you, eh? I was going to say I've always been like this

I've never like myself girl I was never above this and he usually like I always try to or we always try to make each other feel like attract to each other and feel like that

even like when he was the first day because then it's like when makes this partly keep going always you see for me I like it whereby you can be yourself with someone like we can but like I fancy you most

when you're just in a pair of trackers barefoot with just a t-shirt on in the morning and your hair's a mess and you're a bit puffy face because you just woke up like lots of people messaged and say oh he's got the tight pants on and strictly

or he's got this and he's got that I've only been fancy me on dye pants anyway but you fancy yourself otherwise but I think that's what makes a couple so nice is that you see because you know like for events and stuff I have to have my hair and makeup done and I have to wear a dress and it's lovely to do that

but the thought of having to do that day to day, I don't know how people get up every day. Oh, I don't like when you were. I like you with no makeup. Put makeup on and get smart and everything every day. I think there has to be an element of you are yourself and it should be enough and you should be comfortable. Yeah, but sometimes you do with the stains and clothes.

You brought me this jump, what you're on about? Yeah, and it's nice. So. I'm not saying, I don't say that I'm a jumper. I'm not moaning about it. I'm just saying it's not that I'm asking you to make an effort or do efforts or dress out. I don't like you when you dress up.

I fancy you when you dress like for an event. But I love you with no hair and makeup done. Yeah. That's what I like you. Because you don't need it. Because you're already naturally pretty. You don't need it. What I'm saying is like when you have like halting your socks, you know what I mean?

Or like you can, for example, here and you have like a state of coffee because you just rub the coffee in yourself. Yeah, but that's not because I'm unattractive. That's because I'm trying to juggle parking a car over a sleeping policeman whilst holding a coffee. Maybe, yeah, maybe. Or because you. Yeah.

But also, for example, like things like you will wear a nice hoodie to cook your meal and then the oil spills on your thing. That's the thing. It's because you don't care. So you're home from Spain? Yes, I am. Hence the nice little glow you've got. I knew there was a reason why you got your arms out for this.

Are you looking a bit tanned? No. Tanned and toned? It was cold in Madrid, eh? It was sunny, though, but I called. Did you see Jorge? I did, yes. I did see him, but just roughly, just for a coffee in the morning.

Okay. Yeah. But yeah, it was his best friend in Spain. It was lovely. I went there. for the men's health awards. Men's health awards. That was very good, yeah.

A lot of people, like, you know, like, a lot of actors and footballers and athletes, and it was very good, yeah. That's what you got for Christmas. You got his men's health cover. You weren't asked about that gift, and the hassle I had getting that gift sorted, having to have it sent to me in HD,

then on a separate format that I had to download on a laptop only, then I had to go back to the, not Claire, it's someone else above Claire to get you actual cover. sent to me at proper quality and then the place that I found to get the exact same size as my

cardboard thing is. To be honest it was a very thoughtful but it's a very unpractical gift. It's one you can keep forever. Yeah but I don't think I will keep that forever. I tell you that in a few months it's going to end up in the garage. Why though? Because it's unprroportionally

huge and I won't put it anywhere. You have to be so full of yourself. Not even me would love to have that on a wall. You've not got it to be on a wall to be full of yourself. You've got it to remember your first men's health company you've wanted to do for years and years. I think, for example, if he was a picture of this size, yeah, on a black frame.

Then it'd be pointless. You've got that as well on your magazine cover with the frame. No, I don't have that. Well, it's in the office ready to be framed. That would be right perfect. But the big size that you got me, I don't want to put that anywhere. It won't fit any wall on the gym and I don't want that size on the gym. Well, when you next go to Spain, I'm going to put it.

it in the front window of the house. So anyone who comes, postman deliveries, friends, family, that's what they see. And they think, what a big head goker is, I go, do you know, he made me put that there? Yeah. I'll say, can you believe I bought that for him? Definitely not.

He made me put it there. It's not something that I would, like, it's too big. I don't want to see myself there. Do you know how I mentioned to you about? But thank you. I said to you, thank you. Because you know how stressful it is trying to download stuff

for me on a laptop? I really appreciate the effort. Do you know how I mentioned to you about that Spanish rave thing that went on? Yeah. Would you ever have a raver back in the day? No. Never at all. Did you go to night club?

You must have gone to night clubs. Yes, but I was at home at 2 in the morning. My first night out, night out, I would go home at 5 in the morning. I was 21. Why so late? Just because... I was busy dancing. That's good.

I hope you don't go out until 21. I didn't go. And my mom always had... Even after I was 18, my mom said to me 2 o'clock or when your first friends go home and you don't go alone, you come back. Yeah. We used to go out at 17. You all had a little fake ideas.

I've never been... You know how you used to go to Magaloo? And it's not like that. Yeah. I've never been on holidays with my mates. You didn't need to if you lived in Spain. Summer was gorgeous now. Every person go, I had friends that used to go to Ibiza holidays or Menorca holiday.

I never been. Because the money that I could say for going on holiday with my mates, but Magalov, I spend it in dancing. That's paid off for you though, wasn't it? But I've never. I used to always go. I go now anyway. I go to my Menorca with Arduino.

Me and the girls used to have, we've done Magalov at least five times. In fact, I bet someone listening on all these. these places. So there's a nightclub called BCM in Magalof. I've been there. B.C.m? Yes. BCM. They used to say it stood for British cattle market. That's what they used to say. And next door to BCM, there was an apartment block. It was a two-star apartment block, like a grey-greeny building. It was awful. But we used to stay there because it was cheap. So we used to book two rooms, me, Laura, Nat, Marissa. And do you know what though? It wasn't a case of going and I know you're thinking, oh, lords of lads, this and that, none of that,

it was just get you drinking, get you drinking the hotel room. It was the best time. I'm not ignoring you, carry on, yeah? Why, what are you trying to do? Because now that you said that, I was going to show, do you know how everybody was doing the 2016 thing? Yeah. I was going to do this.

Just carry on, carry on. Okay. But yeah, we used to have the best time in Magaloff. I mean, I couldn't go now. It'd be awful now. And I hope to God, Mia and Tiago don't want to go. but we all got tattoos in Magaloff. Mine's been lasered off.

Laura got, do you know my friend Laura, right? This is a true story. She's obsessed with busted and Matt Willis. She got a tattoo of the busted symbol on the inside of her ankle. So she got a star on the inside of her ankle. And we went to a charity event about six years later

and we got sat on a table with Matt and Emma Willis and she had to change her shoes because she had the busted logo tattooed on her ankle. And she said to me, If they see this, they're going to think I'm some kind of psycho. I got Mel B's Chinese symbols on my tummy in Magaloff. It was a tattoo shop across the road from BCM. That's been laser off now.

But it was brilliant. You see that's very British. Oh, and all there. We call you in Spain, Gitties. Gitties. We call you Gitties. Sox and slippers. That's the image we have for you.

Sox and sandals. Yeah. Burr like lobsters wearing socks and sandals. No, I'm glad that we did it, but I'm also glad it's no more. Well, you know, Fraser. Fraser. Frise is one of my best friends. He's lovely Fraser. So obviously he's Scottish.

He's wild. He had those Magaluv nice, yeah? So he went to Magaluk, he got so pissed, then he ended up with a fox. You know Foxy, the pay-pay roll? Foxy. He goes so drunk with his mates. They took him to the tattoo,

and they tattooed that on his ass. What, the brand of the toilet roll? Yeah. Oh, bless him. He might kill me for saying this, but yeah. Sorry, Frasier. I'm going to ask him to show me next time. Yeah.

He's never mentioned that. I'm going to ask him, you will see. It's so funny. Are you going to face time in? Yeah, yeah. Let me ask him the question. Let me see if he answers. Hi, you're okay, mate?

Yes, you are. Fraser, I've got a question for you, Fraser. We're talking about the Magaloof and tattoos. Oh, okay. Fraser, so, you're right. So I got... Yeah, I'm good. I was just saying that I've done Magaluf load of the girls ofs.

Yeah. And I got Mel B's tattoos on my stomach from her album cover. They've since been laser off. Have you got a fox tattooed on your ass? Yeah, I got a bit of a wild story, actually. So I was in Cavos. Right. Went to get a tattoo.

There's a lot of my mates from Scotland were getting one. And my nickname at school was Foxy. So I was like, oh, I might as well get a fox on my bottom. So I got a cartoon fox and Foxy underneath. But the wild part of that story is, obviously, after that went out and got, you know what happens in Cavos? and I woke up in the morning. I had a pound and headache and my mouth was swollen.

And I was like, what has happened here? So I went to the mirror and I also had a big metal bar in my tongue and I got my tongue pierced and it got infected. Oh my God. So Gemma the Foxy. Can I see the tattoo? What right now? Is it not near your actual hole, is it?

So in the double the cheek? Oh, right. Okay. Let me see. Oh, I'll tend to talk to you after, all right? Thank you for confirming it. No worry. I'll hand you back to go.

I'll see you later. Bye. Bye, mate. See you later. Bye. See you later. Oh my gosh. As if he had his tongue pierce and his ass tattooed in one night.

We do a part in the show where we each have a debate about something that's happened in the week. And you guys get to decide. Yes. Who wins the debate? Do you want me to tell you mine or do you want to go first? Yeah, you can tell me yours first. This thing, it happened and it made me laugh as well as annoy me because I would do the same thing that you did.

Basically, our next door neighbour's got two dogs. They're lovely, really nice dogs. Big Labradors, aren't they? But his fence has blown out at the minute, so he's waiting to get his fence repaired. And one of his dogs escaped, bless him. and it pooed near our house. And Gawker panicked that Benji had eaten something that wasn't his because there was a poo.

Obviously Benji's a smaller dog, but there was a massive poo. And you took a picture and said, surely this can't be Benji, what's he been eating? And I saw it and was like, oh my gosh, no. I said it must be next door's dog because it's got out. I said, don't worry, I'll let him know that his dog's escaping type thing. because we are mates, he's lovely. And it was like 11 o'clock in the day

when you sent it at me. I was working. I came home from the radio about 20 to 8 and it was still there. And I went in the house and said, that poo you sent me a picture of, it's still there. And you went, oh yeah, I wanted you to see it.

And I was like, but I saw it on the picture. And Mia said to me, Papa didn't want to pick it up. Now, I understand picking up someone else dog poo is awful. Benji's poo. I don't mind picking Benji's poo up. Another dog, you're like, even though it's the exact same thing, you're just a bit like, but my debate was you saw it, you took a picture, you sent me the picture, but then you didn't think to pick it up and put it in the bin. You just left it on the drive so that when I arrived home, I was like, oh, and I thought, God,

no, that isn't Benji, but that's my debate. Nice. Anything to add? No. Okay, what's your debate? My debate is sometimes the beans get full very quickly. Always are beans to get full very quickly. And then you, for example, put the black beans in the garage. And sometimes again, like always, you just put, or boxes, you keep carrying boxes of deliveries in the garage until you cannot do anymore. And then you said to me, you need to go to the tip. There's too many things on the garage. The garage used to be sorted.

Yes. But you tell me when it's full of everything and then there is like, or the bin, back, he's been there for three days. But if I don't put it there, there's nowhere to put it. Okay. If I go to the tip, you would genuinely be annoyed. You love going to the tip. I love to go.

Yeah, because you like it. It's a nice distraction. Yeah, and he always comes back from the tip with the coffee, so you don't just go to the tip. No, the dip in the coffee show next to it. There you go. But it's just the black beans in the garage for three days, then it gets smelly. But if you keep them outside, we live near an open farm. We live near a backfield.

Yeah, it's not because of that. If you keep it outside, you're going to get rats. going to get foxies, you're going to get all kinds eating it, which I'm all for. It's just because if I see them there, I know they are there and I take them. Sometimes you put them in the garage and I didn't even know they were there. Because sometimes I'm knowing the house when you change the bin bag. I said to you this morning, actually, you know the garage stinks. Yes, and I didn't know those bags were there.

Because the last time you said to me, I'm going to put this bin on the black bean and step on it on it. But you didn't. You put it straight in the garage. We have to put the black bin out tonight. Yes, I know. I saw already outside. Yeah, I've put it outside to remind me when I come home from work, I need to take it out. No, I put it.

drive. I'd put it up. Put them two black bins from the garage in someone else's bin. Why are you looking at me like that? You can't do that? What do you mean you can't do that? Of course you can.

If their bins is half empty... Sorry number seven. I'm going to put my bins in your... No, that's normal. Surely that's a standard thing. If our bin was half empty and it was bin day and someone else was struggling to fill their bin,

I'd say, listen, we've not... Ours ain't full, just pop it in ours. I don't think everybody thinks the same way as you, Gemma. Well, I've done that. that about four times in the last six months. Well, today's week... It's not affected anyone. Today's with the debate that haven't been very dramatic, no?

I think mine would win. I think the fact that you had no comeback shows that you're ashamed and embarrassed. No, to be honest, I left it there in case you need to do a video for the neighbour. That's the only thing I left to there. I don't need to video him. He's on the blooming doorbell.

I didn't want his dog to get run over. But he's got a new gate now. I don't want his dog to get hit. That was my issue. He's that car's flung round. Aloha, you have only an issue when involves animals. Yeah, because I don't want his dog to get run over.

That would be carnage. Who do you agree with, though? Let us know. It's Lost in Translation at Bowermedia.com. Or you can WhatsApp us 0776103-98989. Or you can follow us on our social channels. It's atlost.com. Should we resolve this week's dilemma?

Let's solve one of your dilemmas. Last week we had our first voice note of the series. I'm pleased to say, we've got another one and I think this is the first male dilemma we've solved and you know what I think guys for now on

if you can send voice notes it's actually even more fun because I think when you read the dilemma on a voice you hear on the voice of the person you can get you can get into the character

the situation you know you can tell if that person is annoyed or not well if you do want to send us a dilemma like Dan has done it's lost in translation at bowermedia.com at UK

Dan this is is your dilemma on a voice note. Hi Gemma, hi Gorka. Please be honest and tell me if I'm being petty or if this is genuinely rude behaviour. But once I've noticed this, I can't not see it. So one of my best friends never says thank you ever. If I hold a door open for them,

they don't say thanks, they don't smile or like give an awkward nod. And they don't do the thank you wave whilst they're driving either. it's like these things are just like they're god-given right and it makes my skin crawl because I was brought up to believe that basic manners cost nothing and I find myself like overcompensating for it so I'll loudly say thank you on their behalf which makes things even more awkward I've started noticing it everywhere now as well so like waiters shop staff strangers and it's honestly making me see them differently and it feels small but it also feels like it says something big about entitlement and respect.

So am I overreacting or is it fair to be annoyed by someone who can't manage basic politeness? And do I call them out or just stop holding doors open altogether? Oh, Dan. I am with you, Dan.

I'm with you, Dan. That's awful. He sounds like, like you say, just rude. I also wanted to ask, is it your friend British or he's from another country, firstly? Because he's Spanish, it could be rude. Excuse me

You sometimes come across rude No I'm not You come across because you direct Like I'm no rude If a waiter comes up to us And we're eating If he says is it nice

I'll go yeah it's okay Thank you You'll go no This is not right This is not And it's awful You know But back to Dan and his mate

I agree with Dan It is rude And it gets to a point Where it's embarrassing Yeah Yeah It becomes so embarrassing When you're with

In the company Of someone Especially to waiters People in Public Service they're doing a public service, they're trying the best and knackered, the last thing they need is to not be thanked or feel appreciated for doing a job. But it's not even that.

I can, how you put it, sympathy, empathy with Dan because I have friends that are that way. It's always like Dan said, they cost nothing. Doesn't matter, your background, where you're from, you can have, man, like, remember this morning, I said to me here in Tiago, Johnson Water, they said, yes, please. I gave Tiago a bottle of water he went, thank you, mummy.

Just the smallest thing. And when it comes to doors, when it comes to waving with cars, I mean, you can vouch me for this. I am a driver whereby if I let someone go and they don't thank me, I will go, oh, you're welcome then, dickhead.

Literally. She gets very aggressive when she's driving. Because they should say thank you. I always say thank. If another car lets me go, I think, oh, thank you. I always go, thank you. I mouth it, a wave, because in my head, I think they could be in a rush.

You could have had a stressful morning. You still let me go before them. Sometimes you're like, thank you. Is that okay? I don't put my rods up. But, can you say thinking that at the same time? No, because it's two different things. Thank you.

But no, Dan, I think what you should say, you should just call him out and just say, mate, why do you not got any manners? Yeah. And he would be like, what? And just say every time, you never say thanks for anything. Where's that from?

What's that about? Or just go like, you're welcome. It's hard to be like, you're welcome, eh? You're welcome. Yeah. And then you know, they didn't make it like obvious to them. and then we make it feel awkward. No, I would definitely, I'd call him out on it, Dan,

because also you don't want to be guilty by association with it as well. I don't know, maybe it's getting older for me, but I've realised the company I surround myself with, they're either a drain or a radiator. They're either going to radiate you up, make you feel good, or they're going to just drain the life out with you and make you angry. And it sounds like your mates making you angry, and life's too short.

So my advice would be, call him out, absolutely, and just have a chat with you. with him, he might have some inner anger issues, mightn't it? Yeah. But thank you so much. Thank you, Dan, for getting in touch. Thank you for listening. I just ask about the culture thing because even like me, for example, like,

when I go to Spain now and I go to, let's say, for example, a coffee shop, no? Yeah. And I'm going to order. Yeah. So for example, here you go like, hi, hi, hi. And then like, what would you like? Hi, hello. You're like, how can I have, no?

Yeah. Yeah. When you go to even like, let's say, even in the airport to Starbucks, yeah? Yeah. And the person waiting there. It's like, what would you like straight away? And they go like, what you want? That's how we say in Spanish, no?

Yeah. Which here would be rude. You say, did me? Yeah. Which means tell me. That makes sense. And then you go like, one coffee. And you're like, thanks and leave.

It's very like. Very direct. Yeah, coffee, please. Thank you. Bye. So it's not like, hi, how are you? Can I have a coffee please? So for example, when I go to Spain now, I go like, hi, how are you?

Can I have a flat way with oatmeal please? Thank you. And they go like, oh, yes. They find it like quite. I'm very polite. That's that when I go London. That makes sense. When I go,

how's your day being? You're okay? You look at me like, I'm going to batter him. Yeah, yeah, what do you want? What do you want? Get out? But yeah, maybe it is that.

Like you say, North-South and different cultures. I think as well, because people are so busy these days. A lot of the time, not in every time, so I'm not defending your mate down, but in some cases,

it's like if I'm rushing, I'm on the phone, walking and someone holds the door, I just go, thanks. And I think afterwards, oh, maybe I should have the phone on my chest and I go, thank you.

But he's so busy. But I do that maybe 1% of the time. Other than that, I go out of my way. Because I'm also aware, when it comes to Mia and Tio, there'll be so many people who automatically assume they will be rude because you're the dad and I'm the mum. You know what I mean? And I go out of my way to be like, absolutely not.

And I'm always drilling into them. You know, my mum used to drill in manners to me all the time. I used to say, Mom, can you have some water? and she used to pop her head right and go, if you ask me properly, yeah. Yeah, yeah. I go, Mom, please can I have some water? And she'd say, yes, of course you can. I think it's also like nowadays, like general wise,

a lot of the manners, like, for example, like me, if I'm walking with you and open the door, I will never open the door and walk myself first. I open the door and let you pass or someone else, you know what? Yeah, you let me pass, but then you'll trip me up and go, hey, hey, afterwards. No, wouldn't. You'd stick your foot out sometimes.

No, I wouldn't. Yeah, but thank you for getting in touch, Dan. I'm really pleased that you're the first male dilemma that we've hopefully saw. But any more males? Get in touch. Come on, we love it. You need to be on Gorka's side. Get in touch Lost in Translation

It's from your high rocks. Oh, he's done a high rocks. Yeah. Anyway, should we play another game? Yes. I love this one. I think you're going to be very good at this. Oh, no.

This game I know I'm already going to lose because Gawker always rips me because I'm terrible with my geography when it comes to meanders in rivers and plate tectonics and earthquakes and typhoons and stuff I'm on it. When it comes to countries, towns and cities I have no clue.

The amount of times I've said to him where's such a place? Where's Russia? Where's this? So you're probably going to win this anyway. I don't know because this is different. So this is not like about putting it in the map where is which, yeah? But it's naming the capital cities of these countries.

So we've each got five countries each that we have to name the capital city of. Okay. I can see yours, you can see mine. Yes. So we're going to start, yeah? Yeah. Best of five. Okay.

Okay. I'm not good at this, eh? I have no clue capital cities. I know London's ours. Some of them will know, yeah? Yeah. So you start first? Greece.

It's the capital city of Greece. Athens. Correct. Ding! Spain. Madrid? Yes. We should do something that you have the penalties.

Like the five dots and go red or green. I didn't know if it was Madrid or Barcelona then, genuinely. That was a guess. The Netherlands. Netherlands. Yes, I know it. And it's where everybody goes. Wait a second.

Oh my God, I forgot the name. I know which one is the red district. Oh, you know the red light district. don't you? I thought you'd go for the bicycle rides there. Yes, not the red light. In canals. But I forgot the name now.

It sounds like hamster. Amsterdam. There you go. Yes. Ding! Well, you know what? Ivan Drago is from there. Russia.

Yes. The capital of Russia. Moscow. Correct. I lived in Moscow for seven weeks. Nice. Hungary. Hungary.

Budapest. Correct. Sweden. Sweden. Has a stock. It has a stock. Stockholm? Yes, correct.

I thought Stockholm was in Germany. I'm joking. Oh, you'll get this one. Puerto Rico. Puerto Rico. Do you know what? I might not get it right. Because Puerto Rico, I will tell you San Juan, but I don't think it's San Juan.

Why? Because I will say San Juan is a big city. But I might not be. San Juan. It is San Juan. Okay. San Juan of Puerto Rico is beautiful. Or San Juan, as I'd say.

San Juan. the old town of Puerto Rico, it's beautiful. You know, I dock there on the ship. And when you get out of the dockyard, the first thing that you say is this huge, huge hotel. You feel like you are on the 20s, we say hard rock cafe. And it's like going back to, I don't know. You feel like you're in like, it's like, well, it was part of the States.

Yeah. But back on the 20s, 40s. It's beautiful, yeah. My next one? Belgium. Brussels. Yes. Do you know why?

Spruits. Sprouts? Yeah. No. Brastels of Sprouts. Wam Vam. Ah, Yanklob van Dam. Junklovandam.

Is the Mussels from Brussels. Oh, no. You didn't expect me to get that one, did you? Yeah. Ooh, South Korea. South Korea? Oof, that's a difficult one. Do you know, the band, the boy band, BTS,

have just done two years in the South Korean military service. That's why they've not made any music. Nice. The back, they're on a world tour. Everyone thought they'd just been on a hiatus, but they'd been in the military. Little fact for you there. Seul.

How did you know that? Just I need to think about for a bit. My last one? Cuba. Oh, I know this one because I've been. And it's where that you can't buy stuff. And they drive all the old Cadillacs. They drive all the old cars.

Oh, this is like your one that you got stuck with. This is like your Amsterdam where I know the name. There is a Chile who has the... Chilean Pepper has the name of it. Yeah, I know, I've been to it. I've been in that. I've got a picture of me in the market square in that place. And I've hired a pink Cadillac.

China and Neil's daughter is called that that way. Havana, unana. There you go. That's the one, yeah. Should you go some more cities, some more countries? No, because I don't know any. No, just say a country and then. Africa.

Africa's a continent. That's me about then. South Africa. South Africa. No, but, do you know what? You say this, Gorka takes the Mick out of me for not knowing all these countries and places. That was brilliant.

First of all. That was brilliant. Les democamuch countries, Africa. First of all, I'm not as well-travelled of it as him. But I always think I'm an advocate for education in school, 100%. But... Life skills, no? Life skills.

I think I would much rather have benefited to knowing how to pay my taxes than I would know in what... plate tectonic was. You're still not having now how to do. Your mom has to do it for you. When did you last need an Isosceles triangle in your life? No, but for example, it's just, it's fine. I'm not laughing.

Well, I was laughing at that, because that was funny. South Africa is Johannesburg. I've been to Johannesburg, have you? Nice, yes, in Cape Town. And Cape Town. It's beautiful. Okay, can I do another capital? Why?

Because, you know, I can't answer them, so you're just trying to throw me under a bus? No. What if I say Portugal? Funshal That's not a capital That's so you're right Yeah I'm fun with that

The cap is Lisbon Big fan of him So Yeah It's Lisbon There you go yeah Yeah In your face

Yeah See See See Right Let's just move on Because I don't like this game Because I'm

It's good You stay with the life skills For me and Tiago I will I will make I teach them maths And geographics Geographics

When you did Is it true? I asked Gawker about school because you had English lessons but I remember you were saying to me all you had to do was write a letter to Queen Elizabeth. No.

It was, you had to write a letter to Queen Elizabeth as part of something you said it wasn't a lot of English. No, I said our teaching wasn't very good at English. I'm sure you told me you had to write as part of your teaching as much, all you had to do was write a letter obviously not send it to the Queen.

No, they used to play as like cassettes, you know, like audio of all the things. Oh, yeah. Duolingo, but on a cassette. And they go like, repeat the words. School, school, park. A screep. Yeah.

But my teacher used to talk like this, yeah? So people say that I have a Spanish accent, right? She used to talk like this. Hello. So today we're doing that podcast. And in today's podcast, we are talking about is the things that we do in our house day to day. But that's in English, just with an accent.

Yeah, but that was how she used to speak. I do not speak like that. We used to have an English teacher teaching us Spanish. The only teacher we had who was actually French was the French teacher. So you learnt French with an accent, but I chose Spanish. Talking about this, you know me the other day said to me, Papa, remember when Mommy was pregnant with me? I was like, yes, she had a Spanish teacher.

And Nana said to me that I could have lessons for Spanish with the teacher that mommy had. So we should do that. It was near the old house that. Yeah, because I think she had. She's really good. Because she was saying to me, because I think Papa, only speaking with you, it will be more difficult. But if I have a teacher and then when I go home, I speak to you in Spanish all the time, I could learn Spanish. She could learn Spanish.

More Spanish. Yeah. So I think we should do that. It's annoying. They don't do Spanish in me as school. It's French and German. Everyone should learn Spanish, really. Whenever you go on holiday.

I think we should do it. But you know what you should do? We should start a petition to the government and the prime minister, yeah? I'm sure they'll listen to us. I know there's a lot of people who listen to this that will agree with us. Most of the places that you guys, British go on holidays, is Spain mainland, Canary Islands, or Mallorca. Get your ass tattooed.

What is Majorca? Part of which islands? The Canary Islands. Talking about your... Talking about your graphics, this is a funny story. I know what you're going to say. Yesterday, we were looking about holidays, no? And say where we could go.

And I said, do you know, my friend Jorge, he's thinking to go to holidays on February in the half-church. or to Canary Islands or to Dubai maybe for Lanzarote and now she was oh yeah we can go to Lanzarote and I said yeah

but he said it's very windy and Jemma said what other island we can go in the Canary Islands like well we can go to Tenerife but we've been already like oh we could go to my York and I was like

my York and she's known in the Canary Islands it's in the Balears so it's not the same it's like no one is in the south of Spain one is in the Mediterranean It's funny We've still not booked it

because Mia finished his school this time for term and four days later Gawker starts rehearsals for his frigging tour so we're in a predicament of either taking her out of school to go on holiday

or not going on holiday or you can go on holiday with them but it won't be a holiday will it if I'm on my own with a six-year-old and a two-year-old it's going to be hell on earth you're just going to be home from home but you can go with mum and Peter with you again because then you don't get a holiday

and I want all to have a family holiday I haven't got a holiday in the last two years we need to have a proper family holiday but it's typical. It's absolutely typical. There's like a four-day gap. If you pay me the money that I get on tour, I won't go on tour,

and then I'm happy to go on holidays. But then you'll let the tour down. Yeah. I'd rather that. I'd rather go on holiday. Yeah, me too. Trust me. But should we wrap it up then now?
