Starting point is 00:00:00 Welcome to the Peacock and Gamble podcast. Welcome to the Peacock and Gamble podcast. I'll just take a quick register. Peacock? Here. Gamble? Here. Well, good. Then we can commence.
Starting point is 00:00:24 Are you being an Edmaster today? Yes. I like that. Thank you very much. No talking in assembly, please. Sir, can I just make a very quick point? Yes, Peacock, we do have a lot of stuff to get on with. This one is pre-recorded. I beg your pardon? Well, this podcast has been recorded at the same time as the last one. Yes. I'm just saying that in case people are saying, oh, why have they not done anything about the amazing deaths and that?
Starting point is 00:00:46 Yes. Why are they not up to date? Why are they from ages ago? Yeah. It's because it's ages ago. That's all it is. Yeah. Because we're out and about
Starting point is 00:00:54 too busy to do it. Yes. Well, thank you, Peacock. I feel weird calling you sir then. No, you should call me sir. It's the traditional way of addressing a headmaster. Now, sporting achievements.
Starting point is 00:01:05 The A team of rugby beats the rival school. Who's that? Your improvisations are so good, Ed. St Leonard's school. And what school is this we're in? St Comedy. It is St Comedy, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:01:22 St Comedy's school for the gifted. And our rival school is St Leonard's. St Leonard's? St. Comedy's school for the gifted. And our rival school is St. Leonard's. St. Leonard's idiot school. But they're very rough. I think we should go that one, really. Yeah. Anyway, we beat them in the rugby 50-0. Nice one.
Starting point is 00:01:37 That's a good result, hasn't it? Is it in the cup? Yeah, in the cup of it. In the inter-schools cup. Yeah. We won that. So if anyone's saying, who the hell are these people doing this podcast? What have they ever achieved?
Starting point is 00:01:48 We won the bloody inter-schools cup and we were defending it. We won it last year and all. I don't think they'll ever beat us. Oh, fucking St. Leonard's. Some sad news. Mr Pompey has had to leave the Latin department as his wife. As it's utterly
Starting point is 00:02:03 irrelevant. As his wife has run off. And he's chasing her. Imagine that. And then, obviously, the cleaners left as well because he's running behind them playing the Benny Hill music. A lot of teachers leave, don't they? They do leave, yeah. Because they have breakdowns and that. It's a shame.
Starting point is 00:02:20 It's like that one you were friends with who cut his eyes off. Cut his tear ducts out. Alright, that was it. Yeah, that one. Something along those lines. Yeah. So, yeah,
Starting point is 00:02:28 so bear in mind, sorry, sir, bear in mind, I can't call you sir, I find it, sometimes, I tell you what, when a girl calls me sir,
Starting point is 00:02:35 right, in a sexy way, Yeah. I don't know why, but it does. And I've never ever, I've never once asked someone to call me sir.
Starting point is 00:02:43 They just do it. Or is it because you turn up in the middle of the night wearing a mortar board and a gown pretty much it's not even a teacher thing right
Starting point is 00:02:51 I think maybe I pretend I have been knighted I think I imply it would it turn you on even more if they called you Sir Terry Wogan I'd just fill my pants I think maybe I do sometimes...
Starting point is 00:03:06 Maybe I say, oh, this sex reminds me of that time I met the Queen. And she put that sword on either side of my head. And then after that, they just assume I am. Do you then knight them with... Yeah, I have to stand right close, though. Welcome to the show. Got a text from you the other night. Oh, that's lucky for you. Yeah, when I you the other night oh that's lucky for you yeah when i say the other night yeah i mean 4 53 a.m that's morning then strictly speaking that's morning it's more that's seven
Starting point is 00:03:35 minutes till they start doing breakfast at mcdonald's but i wasn't queuing outside mcdonald's for breakfast i was asleep yeah well then that's why you needed waking up. Come on. Right. Come on, get down there. Get your McNugget. Oh, no, not McNugget. What did he make?
Starting point is 00:03:51 Sausage. McSausage. McSausage. Can we get a McSausage and a Nash Brown? A McFuller McEnglish. McCoffee and all if you want. Right, well, if you'd wanted to wake me up from McDonald's, usually like a call or I would have set an alarm would have worked.
Starting point is 00:04:04 Imagine if they did a McBlack Pudding. That would be awkward to say, wouldn't it? McBlackPudding. Especially if you're at the drive-thru. But if you were waking me up... McPudding. McPudding. Sounds like Black Pudding, doesn't it?
Starting point is 00:04:15 McPudding. McPudding. Do you want a McPudding with that? Yes, please do. Thank you. You'd never want to, though, would you? No, you wouldn't. You'd order two, eat one and go,
Starting point is 00:04:25 I can't eat another black pudding. McPudding. McPudding. Right, well, this is the way you woke me up, anyway. What other foods are there that you want, and then... We're not doing this section again. No. You can't try and sneak this section in.
Starting point is 00:04:37 You can't try and sneak it. That's not what I was doing. I'm saying, what other foods are there that you want more of, but then when you get it, you can't eat it? This can't be a new regular section. Let's just try it for one week. No! Right, agis.
Starting point is 00:04:52 Agis is one this week. You have one of them. No, you always think you can eat more of it than you can. Right. Agis. So that's that. That's that new section I'm saying. You woke me up with the text I really like
Starting point is 00:05:05 Stelios off EasyJet because he really made something of himself do you like Stelios on EasyJet I think he's a self-made man and I like that but I don't know
Starting point is 00:05:13 I don't know if he is or not but I think he is I think he is he's a self-made man isn't he I think he is he started off as an and and then just crawled
Starting point is 00:05:20 about getting all his other bits and just putting himself together until he was big and made EasyJet yeah he just used to roll about in a medical bin. What at 4.53
Starting point is 00:05:30 in the morning prompted you to say this is the point in the night when I wish to make my feelings on Stelios from EasyJet known to Ed? Yeah, well, I would imagine here's my guesses. Right. I would imagine that I'd thought oh, I've not spoke to Ed.
Starting point is 00:05:45 Yeah. For a bit, and I've been away for ages. That would have been one thing that would have come to my head. Yeah. The other thing would have been, I probably was flicking through channels and saw something about EasyJet. Right. And he came on.
Starting point is 00:05:56 I mean, I really miss, he used to be on Adverts, didn't he go, hi, I'm Stelios. And then he would say stuff and that. He doesn't do them anymore. Yeah, he doesn't need to, mate. He really doesn't need to. Why? Just because he's not. Why has he not taken into account that people might miss him?
Starting point is 00:06:09 Sorry, I was just checking to see if you'd said anything to me before that. You'd not spoken to me. That's dead else. At 2am, you texted me to call me a queer, so I don't... Well, again, I think what I did there was I would have been flicking through the channels and I've seen one of the gays that they have on, like Graham Norton or someone, and I'd have gone, oh, I might call Ed as a joke. I don't mind if you are.
Starting point is 00:06:38 I'm not even bothered if you are, so don't detect that person if you are. You clearly fancy Stelios. I would, if push came to shove and I would shove it then I think if I had to choose one man if I had to accept a man
Starting point is 00:06:51 Yeah, it would be Stelios. It would probably be Stelios. Stelios from EasyJet. Yeah, Stelios off EasyJet. And I don't know how it would I don't know what order we'd do it in I don't know who'd do what
Starting point is 00:07:00 I've no idea how it would work out. You'd probably pay two quid for every thrust. He would, wouldn't he? He would, no. He'd be like, oh, hello, you can have sex with me. It's only... One pound? One pound, one pound to have sex.
Starting point is 00:07:11 And I'd be giving it, yeah, brilliant, come on, yeah. And he'd be like, oh, you want to take my pants off? Oh. That is nine pounds. Pants tax. Yeah. Don't forget your pants tax, he would say. And I'd go, well, alright,, that's still only a tenner, so that's all right,
Starting point is 00:07:26 if we have sex, we'll sell it off for me, Jack. And then he would go, oh, you want to kiss me under the mouth? Well, that is a kiss tax. A hundred pence, because he's clever. A hundred pence, yeah, yeah. A hundred pence, and I'd go, that sounds like, oh, no, it's only a pound.
Starting point is 00:07:40 Yeah. I don't know why he'd do it that way. Anyway, the fact of the matter is... And then at the end, you'd be like, oh, I'm knackered after that. Yeah. Can I have a tube of Pringles? Just a little one.
Starting point is 00:07:49 £15. Yeah, £15. And a little bottle of gin. And a little half one, yeah. And that's free. Yeah. It'd probably end up costing me in the region of four grand. To have sex with Stelios for a bit of debt.
Starting point is 00:07:59 Yeah. Pay it. Yeah. I don't know what had happened that night. That is the honest answer. I don't know what had happened that night that is the honest answer I don't know why I was doing it
Starting point is 00:08:09 I think that was the same night in fact I'm sure it was when someone had been on our forum on the Peacock and Gamble forum on peacockandgamble.com
Starting point is 00:08:15 and had said because they were all talking about one man one jar because we'd been discussing that and then someone had brought up
Starting point is 00:08:21 something about an octopus oh I saw that in a lady's tuppence yeah but there's two different ones right okay you've done the full research yeah there's one massive one yeah Someone had brought up something about an octopus. Oh, I saw that. In a lady's tuppence. Yeah. But there's two different ones. Right, okay.
Starting point is 00:08:28 You've done the full research. Yeah, there's one massive one. Yeah. Big octopus being pulled out of a lady's tuppence. I've seen that. And they were all saying she's Japanese, but you can't even see her. Well, I think that's just the vibe of it. Well, I don't... I got...
Starting point is 00:08:38 It's because of sushi. Right. Well, I'm not getting that vibe at all. Because there was a dead octopus coming out. I thought, pop that on a bit of rice. Right, so that's... Yeah. So you just assume she's Japanese. Yeah. But the other one was a dead octopus coming out. I thought, pop that on a bit of rice. Right, so that's a huge Japanese.
Starting point is 00:08:46 Yeah. But the other one was a lady on all fours, and they pop a live octopus in there. Oh, dear. Only a little one. Oh, dear. But she holds it open for them while they pop it in, and then she lets go, and it all closes,
Starting point is 00:09:01 and the octopus is still inside, and she makes noises like she's having a nice, sexy time. That's Janet,'s janet the only human aquarium she's got a window in her belly but don't tap on the glass well yeah so somebody mentioned that so i went and found that one as well yeah and there was just a moment this site that it was on i was having a whale of a time on there oh there was one with a whale no i. I was having... No, I mean, I was really enjoying it. It was all like porn bloopers and stuff. Right.
Starting point is 00:09:27 But it was all like porn stars, like, flipping out and getting angry and still not upset. Right. And things that had been filmed, just like little sort of curio stuff,
Starting point is 00:09:34 mostly about sex things. I was really enjoying watching it. Okay. Like, I was finding it genuinely entertaining. Yeah. Not even slightly arousing in any way.
Starting point is 00:09:41 Yeah. I was laughing as well, in case I got caught watching it. So I could go, no, it is funny. It is a funny one, yeah. Three stars. Three stars, some funny bits. And then, right, there was one, and it was this girl in a field, right, all drunk up
Starting point is 00:09:55 and that, and all these drunk blokes all round her. Right. And I was like, oh, what's going to happen to her? Yeah. And they were, like, pulling her shirt up and that. I was like, oh, but she's laughing. It's all right. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:02 And then one of them just punches her in the face. Like, punches her really hard in the face. She falls to the ground. He kicks her in the, but she's laughing. It's alright. Yeah. And then one of them just punches her in the face. Like, punches her really hard in the face. She falls to the ground. He kicks her in the head and she falls down. Oh. And the other blokes are pushing her away and I was like, what the fuck's happened here? I was having a laugh then. Where did that come from? She probably feels a bit worse. I'm not saying I'm the only
Starting point is 00:10:18 victim. Right. But I was really, I was like, really put out. Yeah. I was so cross. I was like, no, it was all... Oh, I'm sorry it ruined your evening, mate. Yeah, but it was all funny stuff for a bit. Yeah. But I started thinking then that night about what's legal and what's not legal. Right, you can't punch a woman in the head.
Starting point is 00:10:34 No, I don't mean that. I mean in terms of watching stuff on the internet. So, for example, right, so Two Girls, One Cup. Yeah. Massive viral on the internet. Yeah. And everyone has seen it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:43 Right? The Jar Man. Jar Man, yeah. Right, with a jar bursting in his bum, blunkers everywhere. Yeah. Everyone has seen it right the jar man jar man yeah jar burst in his bum blunkers everywhere everyone has seen that that's even worse than 2001
Starting point is 00:10:50 because it's very very graphic then there's Mr. Hands that one the man who was one man one horse oh right one man one horse
Starting point is 00:10:57 yeah the man with an horse's John Thomas up his bum horse done a sex in it killed him dead yeah right and it was that when I got to that I thought isn't that illegal forces John Thomas up his bum, forced him to sex in it, killed him dead.
Starting point is 00:11:06 Right? And it was that, when I got to that, I thought, isn't that illegal? That a man died because of it. No, but isn't it illegal to watch? If I just put some bestiality up on the internet now,
Starting point is 00:11:16 would it be legal for us to watch it? I think it is illegal, isn't it? Yeah, I think it's illegal. It's an illegal act, so. Yeah, so we're watching illegal, so. But watching an illegal act, is that illegal? Is it only because he died is that what's made it alright
Starting point is 00:11:26 because then then it's become then it's like news no but then it's like a funny little thing like oh look at this bloke obviously he'll end up
Starting point is 00:11:32 dying this bloke there's a story about it we'll have a look at this do reaction videos and stuff so but when is that did he win 250 quid he would have done I tell you what
Starting point is 00:11:40 but even that even if it was a quid a stitch it wouldn't have worked would it but why is it why is itid a stitch, it would not work, would it? But why is it alright? Would it be alright to watch some child porn as long as something funny happens in it? If one of the children does a trump, is it... Well, they do say the funniest things, we do know this.
Starting point is 00:11:56 They do say the funniest things, the funniest noises. But not in those videos. Don't say funny things, you put me off. But I don't know, what is the rule on that? Do you know what I mean, though? Yeah, I do. Why are people not getting done for watching One Man, One Horse? But why do people not get done for watching Bud Dwyer as well?
Starting point is 00:12:14 Because that's not illegal. Why not? Because that happened on live television. But then you could argue the JFK, couldn't you? You could say with JFK, it's not illegal to show that. It should be illegal to watch the war in Iraq because that is an illegal war
Starting point is 00:12:27 right this is why you're never going to get invited on the right stuff because even for a moment even if I bring up an actual interesting point
Starting point is 00:12:38 right and your response to that isn't to join in the conversation your response is to go hey
Starting point is 00:12:44 tell you, it should be illegal to watch war in Iraq. Tony Blair. All right, I'll join in. Come on, let's play the right stuff. Russell Cain was on it the other week. Come on.
Starting point is 00:12:57 We can't get on the right stuff. We want to get on the right stuff. We know people that work at Princess. Right. What's that bloke called? Murray. Murray Walker. James.
Starting point is 00:13:05 No, not Murray Walker. Murray James. Murray Walker's the commentator, bloke called? Murray. Murray Walker. James. No not Murray Walker. Murray James. Murray Walker's the commentator isn't he? Yeah. Right Murray James well see if he's meant to listen to this
Starting point is 00:13:11 because I'm sick. Alright get us some of the right stuff. Murray can we get some of the right stuff? Is it alright to watch porn when you punch a woman in the head?
Starting point is 00:13:16 Yeah. That would be you putting that on the side of the screen. That's what I want to talk about Saturday is the one diamond. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:27 You want to hear about my driving? I want to hear about Saturdays to Ann Diamond. Yeah. You want to hear about my driving? Do I want to hear about your driving? Yeah, do you want a driving update? If you want. All right, it's going pretty well. Nice one. I think I can pretty much drive. Yeah, not on a test.
Starting point is 00:13:36 No, but you know what I mean? Like, I can drive. Yeah. Like, why do we need to take... Why can't we just take it on trust? I'm a trustworthy bloke. I don't know why people who are liars ruin it for the ones who are nice. Same with insurance, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:13:49 Yeah. It's like, why should I pay insurance when I'm not going to have an accident? Yeah, exactly. Trust me. I'm not going to have an accident. And if everyone could be trusted not to have an accident, there would never be any accidents. Yeah. And also, I'll say on the record yeah if i ever do have a fatal accident
Starting point is 00:14:05 yeah i've done it on purpose so that's yeah sort the insurance out from there's not an accident yeah well it's going pretty well mate like i say i can drive um forwards backwards do your left if you want possibly a right yeah possibly a right possibly a right yeah i'm not very good at indicating that i forget to indicate well Well, people, you know, you're going to go one of two ways, aren't you? Exactly. Why can't people trust that you're going to go... Why can't they have some trust in you?
Starting point is 00:14:30 Yeah, exactly. You are going to turn one way or carry on going straight. Or go straight on, yeah. Or backwards. Yeah, or backwards. Forwards, backwards, left, maybe right. Yeah, maybe right.
Starting point is 00:14:40 It's unlikely. Basically, if you burned it out in the car, it's unlikely it's going to go right. But it might give it a crack one day. Yeah, one day I will, yeah. If it's feeling confident, or if that's where the pie shop is. I can do all my manoeuvres.
Starting point is 00:14:55 What ones? Parallel Park, can do that. Right. Fucking amazing at it, if I'm honest. A lot of bad drivers tend to be. Right. Bad drivers tend to be very good at Parallel Park, that's what I've found. Right, I'm excellent at that. Yeah. Left reverse around the corner. Yeah. Bad drivers tend to be. Right. Bad drivers tend to be very good at parallel parking.
Starting point is 00:15:05 That's what I found. Right. I'm excellent at that. Yeah. Left reverse around the corner. Yeah. Awesome. Yeah, again.
Starting point is 00:15:11 Awesome at that. Yeah. Yeah. Turn in the road. Yeah. Try and stop me turning in the road. Okay, yeah. Sometimes I'm on the motorway, I think I'll just do a turn in the road because I'm so good at it.
Starting point is 00:15:20 Yeah. Absolutely brilliant at it. Yeah. Penis in the mouth. I'm very, very good at that one. He's told me I'm good at that one. And that's all of them. He said it's good that I do that one the best because that is the one that is most likely
Starting point is 00:15:35 to come up in the test. Yeah. You're probably right, you know, that he probably will. Because he knows his mate is the person who takes the test. And he said it's really likely to come up in that test. Probably will now, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Have you put in for your test?
Starting point is 00:15:49 I've not yet, no. Because I'll be having lots more practicing the penis in the mouth. Yeah, I mean, basically, it's quite straightforward. We use Wimbledon Common. Okay, that's quiet. Park up round there. Yeah. He always makes me do the observations first.
Starting point is 00:16:03 Yeah, look around. See if anyone's coming. Yeah, you got it, haven't you? Yeah. Obviously, indicate the sort of things I'm going to do. Yeah. Um, I, he always makes me do the observations first. Yeah. I've got to see if anyone's coming. Yeah. Yeah. You got it, haven't you? Yeah. Um,
Starting point is 00:16:06 obviously indicate the sort of things I'm going to do. Right. He's like, okay, indicate, point to the penis, put the penis in the mouth. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:13 Um, and then just towards the end, just to, just a little quarter turn. Right. Okay. And you can do that. Just a quick twist.
Starting point is 00:16:19 Yeah. Yeah. And that, um, that, that's brilliant. I think that's, that's the one that's going to,
Starting point is 00:16:24 he said, I'm brilliant at that. the one that's going to have you pass. He said you're good at that. Yeah, he said I'm brilliant at that. And his mate's going to probably do it in the test. Yeah, it's definitely going to come up in the test, he said. I was never any good at the penis in the mouth.
Starting point is 00:16:31 Were you not? No, I used to sometimes just literally point blank refuse to do it. Oh, right. And you still passed? Yeah, I passed my test easy. But I'm not saying
Starting point is 00:16:38 things are different then. You didn't have to parallel park when I passed my test. Oh, do you know you've done it right? Well, you can always tell. It's difficult with the parallel park. Obviously, there's a certain... You look out the door
Starting point is 00:16:48 and you can see if you're close to the line or whatever. Of course. With the penis in the mouth manoeuvre, you can always tell if you've done it right. How? There's quite a lot of liquid from the penis into the mouth. What did you do with that? See, this is the thing.
Starting point is 00:17:04 He says you can do either in the test., this is the thing. He says, you can do either in the test. You can spit or swallow. When I hit you on the back of the head?
Starting point is 00:17:09 Yeah. He gets the clipboard on the dashboard. He smacks it on the dashboard. He goes, ah! Like that.
Starting point is 00:17:18 He does that. The liquid from the penis into the mouth. Then he said, you can spit or swallow, but you're more likely to impress the person taking the test if you swallow. Does it really matter?
Starting point is 00:17:29 No, I mean, you're not going to get a minor or a major point off for spitting, as long as it's in your mouth for a certain amount of time. But if you swallow, I think then he's more likely to let you off for a minor infraction later. That's lovely. It's a lovely update, that. One that we'll be sure to send to your mum. A lovely update, that.
Starting point is 00:17:41 Yeah. One that will be short to 70 a month. Oh, my God, what's that? That's amazing. It's time for Ed's Amazing Deaths. That's nice. I like that. Yeah, that's a little intro.
Starting point is 00:17:57 A little intro. I've been looking forward to it. Have you? Ed's Amazing Deaths. Oh, bless you. Yeah, I support this section. I was thinking maybe this week we could talk about, like, deaths on stage. What do you mean? I don't mean. Yeah, I support this section. I was thinking maybe this week we could talk about deaths on stage.
Starting point is 00:18:07 What do you mean? I don't mean like Tommy Cooper and that. I mean like, I'm a comedian, you're a comedian. Sometimes it doesn't work. Yeah. Right? Same as any job. You might work in a factory on a lathe.
Starting point is 00:18:17 Some days you're going to do all your lathing fine. Another day you might take a finger off. You know, so we all have fuck-ups at work. Yeah. And sometimes for comedians, you know, we'll have an odd gig or something. Yeah. So I thought we'd maybe discuss... I wonder who's one we're going to talk about.
Starting point is 00:18:31 Well, it's Ed's amazing death. I've had odd gigs. I have had odd gigs. I know you have. I can't remember a death. Or maybe the Comedia Brighton. Yeah, I was going to say that one. Yeah, I can't remember.
Starting point is 00:18:41 Where you're comparing it and you had to go on with a hat in the second section as the disguise. That wasn't even my worst ever gig. That was the, I think that was the night before. Right.
Starting point is 00:18:52 When I'd not done particularly well. Yeah. But I started fucking with them and going out in disguise and saying, oh, has anyone seen my
Starting point is 00:18:58 twin brother? Oh, he came on, he can't do comedy, you wouldn't have liked him. And you'd have thought they'd have thought they'd have found that funny
Starting point is 00:19:06 and they did for a minute yeah then they I think then they realised that it was me in disguise and just hated me again yeah but I know there was a Saturday night
Starting point is 00:19:14 light show that came out I never went there again I've never been there again right where I just I fucking took it through the floor I mean I wasn't doing well
Starting point is 00:19:21 yeah and I thought fuck this fuck this I'm gonna if you think this is bad I'm gonna I'm't doing well. Yeah. And I thought, fuck this. Fuck this. I'm going to, if you think this is bad, I'm going to really go for it. And I did, and I was offensive.
Starting point is 00:19:32 I mean, properly offensive. Really? Yeah. And I just, they despised me. I think I did about 39 minutes. Meant to do 20. Wouldn't get off. Simply wouldn't get off.
Starting point is 00:19:45 All I could hear was Al Pitcher behind the curtain laughing. Absolutely murdered it. Murdered it. It was quite clear it was never going to work. They weren't going to bump me back. Yeah. So fuck it, I'll ruin their club. I think they reported record losses that year.
Starting point is 00:20:00 I'd like to take some sort of claim for that. Yeah. I think they were going to go bankrupt or something. So I'd like to think I was a major part in that. In that I think they were going to go bankrupt or something. I like to think I was a major part in that. In that none of that audience ever went there again.
Starting point is 00:20:10 I hope so anyway. What deaths have you had on stage? The one you're referring to. The one you're definitely referring to. It's my favourite death.
Starting point is 00:20:17 Is Northampton Picture Drone. God almighty it was my favourite night ever. It was only about my I think it was like my 40th gig ever.
Starting point is 00:20:23 I could watch it. I wish I had it on video. I wish more than anything in the world I had it on video because and I've seen you, I've seen you loads do gigs I always enjoy it when you do well. So please don't think that I just like it when you don't do well. But that night is my absolute
Starting point is 00:20:39 favourite gig of yours. I tell you what I remember it distinctly obviously but I was alright. I know, but god, the eight, yeah. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:20:47 I was quite good though, but that gig's horrible anyway. Oh, Northampton Pictures, right, was a fucking woeful gig. I mean, comedians generally,
Starting point is 00:20:55 certainly the comedians I've spoken to, fucking hate it, isn't it? I used to sort of resident compare it, only because I was doing other gigs that I enjoyed,
Starting point is 00:21:04 and I thought, I want to challenge myself as well. Let's see if I can do a resident thing that's because I was doing other gigs that I enjoyed and I thought I want to challenge myself as well let's see if I can do a resident thing that's somewhere I ate within two months I was going
Starting point is 00:21:10 fuck this I don't want to do this anymore it's a horrid horrid gig badly set out an audience chock full of
Starting point is 00:21:16 absolute fucking scum of the earth rude fucking obnoxious arrogant that gig once did I ever tell you there was one time the last did I ever say this?
Starting point is 00:21:25 There was one time, the last time I ever did it, I was meant to be comparing it, and I got a phone call from everyone on the way saying, oh, two of the acts can't make it. Right. They were probably pulling the gig, and I was like, well, I've just turned into fucking Northampton. And then they ran back and went, it's all right,
Starting point is 00:21:37 Mark Holbe's going to come and do it as well, but he's driving up from Bristol. So what we'd like you to do is you do the first half to me, and Mark will get there at like 10, half 10, and he you do the first half to me. Yeah. And Mark will get there at like 10, half 10, he'll do the second half. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:47 And we'll just split the money two ways. Yeah. Alright, fine. So I went there, I was meant to do 30 minutes. Right. I hit 45.
Starting point is 00:21:54 Yeah. And someone in the audience, and it actually went really well for that gig. Yeah. It went really, really well. But some little upstart in the middle just went,
Starting point is 00:22:02 oh, you're shit, mate. And I was like, right. I said, so what do you want me to do? He went, just get off, mate. I went, right. Did you hear the bit where I said to you at the beginning that there are no other comedians in the building? There's 300 of you in the audience now.
Starting point is 00:22:16 I'm going to do what you said. I am going to go because I've already done over my time. I was going over to save the night, really. But because you've been rude to me, I am going to go. And now 300 of you are all going to watch an empty stage, because there's no other comedians here. And it's all because of that bloke there.
Starting point is 00:22:37 Good night. And I walked off the stage, through the audience, and out the door. Never to return ever again. Yeah, I wish I'd done that. Mate, it was funny your way.
Starting point is 00:22:47 I'd compared you on. Yeah. So I'd brought you on thinking you'd do alright. No, you didn't bring me on thinking you'd do alright. No,
Starting point is 00:22:53 I thought you would do alright. Yeah. But they didn't like you, did they? No, they didn't, no, they didn't really like you
Starting point is 00:22:58 that night either. not at all, no. That's why I think you're comparing it and going, oh, he's going to do alright
Starting point is 00:23:03 and they're just looking at you going, what the fuck are you talking to us for often don't often didn't like me I've no issue with that I wouldn't defend myself
Starting point is 00:23:11 I'm sure they didn't oh I'm not defending myself they hated me but at that point in my bit did I resort to getting a woman on stage yeah but I do that anyway
Starting point is 00:23:18 I know you do you got a lady on stage it was Donna who was a fan of the old podcast I don't know if she even heard this one but her and some other people used to come to the gig and sit at the front.
Starting point is 00:23:27 They were all fine fans and stuff. Oh, they didn't laugh, though. They never joined in. No, no, no. But you brought Donna on stage to do your sexy sessions that you always do. Thinking, also because she knew you. Yeah, I thought it might be some fun.
Starting point is 00:23:40 Yeah. And she didn't give you anything, did she? She wasn't even talking to me. She was literally looking at me as if I wasn't there. Yeah, like a statue. Yeah. She went like a grinning statue. And it was my favourite ever moment
Starting point is 00:23:52 because you were ploughing along with your essay sessions. You were trying to get stuff from her. No one's laughing in the audience. I, apart from me, I was properly laughing loud. Yeah. And just a great moment where you just looked at her and you just, you saw your shoulders drop
Starting point is 00:24:06 and you just went, help me out, Donna. And it was my favourite. And I was screaming. I knew you enjoyed it. Because she didn't. No, she didn't. And ever since then, it's been a little catchphrase, hasn't it? Yeah, help me out, Donna.
Starting point is 00:24:20 Help me out, Donna. Yeah. I often said that gig was a lot like, because I wasn't bringing anything funny. I wasn't doing that well. anything funny i wasn't doing no and they they clearly went up for it i used to compare north hampton picture drone to an impotent man trying to fuck a dead prostitute i think that's pretty much perfect yeah it is but help me out donna is photo on that i'd like to encourage our listeners to start using help me out donna help Help Me Out Donner. Basically, anything bad, anything inconvenient happens. For example, we had a meeting with James, our manager, on Tuesday.
Starting point is 00:24:50 Yeah. That was pulled. James couldn't make it. Yeah. And when I got the call through, it was like, oh, we can't do it for another two weeks. And I just went, oh, Help Me Out Donner. When I heard that. Whenever Jeremy Kyle says, Help Me Out here, which he says a lot.
Starting point is 00:25:04 You immediately think of Help Me Out Donner. Help Me Out Donner. Help Me Out Donner. Yeah, which he says a lot, I always go, help me out, Donald. Help me out, Donald. Yeah, help me out, Donald, my favourite. My favourite, Ed's Amazing Death. Well, I think you

Genuinely, that is genuinely it. Right. Ed's Amazing Death doing badly on stage. So I'm enjoying this. This is genuinely the end of the section.
Starting point is 00:25:25 Genuinely, that is genuinely it. Right. Ed's Amazing Deaths this week. The death was Ed. At Northampton. Ed's comedy at Northampton. Even Donna couldn't help him out. Right, I'm fed up of this. What, a podcast? No, Ed's Amazing Deaths. Yeah, me too. No, your attitude stinks.
Starting point is 00:25:46 It stinks. Why? When your attitude comes in, I have to hold my nose. Why? Because it stinks. Don't think you're going to be able to defend it in any way, shape or form. Right, I'm not going to... You're defending the undefendable.
Starting point is 00:25:56 You're like, OJ Simpson's liar. The listeners will defend it. I know they will. They're behind it as a concept. Oh, is this it now? You're just going to be quiet? Well, I thought it's getting away with dealing with the section, isn't it? Right, no. What are you going to do?
Starting point is 00:26:09 I'm telling you, right, that Ed's Amazing Deaths is good, but if you're not happy with it and this is a bad attitude you've got, it stinks. Right, your attitude stinks. Right. Right? I thought Ed's Amazing Births... Your mouth stinks after your cigarettes. Because you used to like Ed's Amazing Births. I used to have cigarettes, but that doesn't mean it's all right. Yeah, you used to like Ed's Amazing Births. I used to have cigarettes

Starting point is 00:26:43 on his Mercedes. Do you know what I'm feeling? I'm being more tolerant of Ed's Amazing Deaths. you're lashing out, you put a scratch on his Mercedes. Do you know how afraid I am of being more tolerant of Ed's Amazing Deaths? Because if you remember when you started the section, I said I was looking forward to it. Yeah, but you're lashing out, mate. So I've come up with some alternatives to Ed's Amazing Birth. I mean, you're starting a fight where there isn't one. Right, it stinks, mate. Just for the record. See, look, there.
Starting point is 00:26:59 Absolutely stinks. Yeah, keep saying that. Just for the record, I've not actually opposed it. I let you do it every week.
