It's the 100th episode.
I am too emotional to do this.
Helen, we've both got our shoulders out.
We're shimmying into our century.
I can't believe we're 100 years old.
A 100 episodes.
I remember when we were four.
We were little.
I thought I'd have love by now.
You were supposed to be married.
We've fucked up our lives.
All we've done is this podcast.
Yes.
It is crazy that you made me promise that it would be over
if I got pregnant or had a baby, was that it?
No, I baby, you married.
Yeah, and neither of us has managed either.
No, the only thing that we've progressed on
in the last hundred weeks of episodes
is Andrew's teeth are now straighter.
Two years.
And they're still not done.
The fucking braces are still on.
For fuck sake, 100 episodes.
We've achieved nothing.
No, congratulations.
We've achieved 100 episodes.
Shake, air shake.
I don't want to touch your hands.
And there's so many really sweet animals in the world
and they're just ignored and then it's left to die in the world.
Well, just because you looked at some Highland cows minute ago.
She was just on the algorithm.
And I need you to stop with the Highland cows.
I need you to stop.
No.
They get so chilly in winter.
I can't with this.
I can't.
But then they have lots of hair and they're very fluffy.
They do.
Welcome to the 100th episode of Trusty Hogg.
Woohoo!
Step forth the trusty hogs.
Yeah, you're gonna give them your problems
and they will solve them
or maybe they won't
and that's your problem.
They'll have guests
and Andrew White on the tech.
Oh, it's Helen and Catherine
as the trusty hogs.
Trust the trusty hogs or maybe not.
The only thing we've achieved
is that I know what to do with my curls.
now.
What?
Like I know how to make them curly and not.
Oh, that's good.
That's good.
What?
I was like, they've looked the same for the last, like, since the, I don't know
exactly what week it was, but the one where Catherine cut a fringe.
Oh, and the fringe is gone.
Hallelujah.
You've actually regained loads.
My hair slightly darker in colour.
Not this week, but just in general than when we started.
Here's the thing, Helen.
I've had...
I've gained a bit of weight, I guess, since we start.
probably.
Yeah, you should listen, haven't we all.
I'm going to say it's not on that point.
On the hair point.
Your hair is much darker because I searched Gifts for Helen Bauer on Instagram and there's
one of you and it's so blonde that I was like, isn't that actually Helen?
I had to Google the hypothetical clip to make it.
I have a gift?
Yeah, it's you on hypothetical.
What am I doing?
I'll find it for you.
Why are you Googling this?
Don't say wanking.
No, I wasn't Googling it.
It was on Instagram.
There's a feature where you can make a story out of a GIF.
And I was like, oh, let's see if Helen has a gift.
I don't know why.
I should have searched for you as well, Catherine.
But it's you saying it's been an absolute blast.
That's so harsh that you haven't even checked if I...
Oh, yeah, my hair's so blonde then.
It really is.
Am I wearing the same dress?
You're so tan.
She has one nice thing.
I literally have like four outfits.
She has one nice thing.
I've worn repeat outfits on TV so many times.
That's fine.
We're not fucking millionaires.
Exactly.
That's fine and it's sustainable.
I believe in sustainability.
Taking a lot of flights at the moment, sure.
If you search Catherine Bohart,
the first thing that comes up is Moira from Schitts Creek.
Stop, that's amazing.
That's so harsh.
How many on your algorithm, though?
When I do it, my ex-partner comes up.
Woo-hoo!
I would love to be attached to someone that intent.
Maybe if I typed in my name,
maybe like Sineal Patel would come up.
Ellen and I are thinking...
Probably you. You'd come up for me.
Yeah, I think so. I think so, too.
That's cute.
Ellen keeps pitching, or you'll do.
Or you'll do too.
What a second season that would be.
But we're not here to go over our relationships.
Because we both have them.
We do have some AMAs about past relationships though.
Should we avoid them?
Fabulous.
No, no, no, let's get into it.
Okay.
Do you want to explain what we've done?
Okay.
Yeah.
Oh my God.
No, no.
How have we not managed to figure this out?
This is a hellish start of the episode.
Welcome to everyone.
episode 100 of the podcast, Trustee Hogs,
where we tell you about our gorgeous lives
and we help solve listener problems.
More importantly today, we've done 100 episodes.
We're going to celebrate.
How are we going to celebrate?
Well, we've asked all of our patrons
and you are dear listeners to send us in your questions.
We are going to do and ask us anything.
We might live to regret it.
And I do think we're both allowed, shall I say,
we're both allowed one pass for ourselves
and we're both allowed one pass for the other.
person and that's it. So if I think you shouldn't answer something. And that's it. But we don't have to use
them. But we only have one, no, no, no. But you're allowed one for the other person where you can veto that
they're not allowed to say it. Okay. One where you can offer yourself. Which means that you cannot have
vetoed anything before, Andrew. All right. Oh my God. Should we have a coffee before we do this?
Because now I'm nervous. No, you have enough energy. You're ground. No, I think I need a coffee.
I think you're fine. Andrew can I have a coffee? Andrew's not in charge here.
I knew you were in charge
I fucking knew it
and for all these fucking hundred weeks
you've been like
I know Andrew's the producer
Andrew's the producer
but I know you meet our behind my back
and you plan these things
I knew you were in charge
you fucking piece of shit
let me into the meetings
let me into the
I won't do what happened last time
I promise I won't get drunk
let me into the room
is this where you plan like dates
for us to do trusty hogs live and stuff
how do you think those happen?
I don't know.
Oh and by the way
if you stay tuned to the end of the episode
we have a huge announcement
which Helen might also be finding out of bed
because she never listens
in the meetings that she does attend.
Then why don't you answer the fucking emails?
There's been email.
Oh my God.
That's ridiculous.
Text messages you don't reply to.
Well sometimes in the WhatsApp group
because I've got WhatsApp and Signal
and a couple of other different messaging things
for my Pokemon group.
Oh, I got an email?
And I won't respond to it.
Can we, this is the worst start ever to our.
Okay, episode 100, we're best friends.
And we're doing Ask Us Anythings.
Off you go, Andrew.
I thought of one more stipulation.
For what?
But they ask us anything.
Yeah.
Maybe we could have an option of like, I'll answer it, but for the patrons.
Yeah, fair, fair, fair, fair.
Like, just in case.
Yeah, I like that.
Just in case, because it's still a smaller community where we...
Those people pay for our secrets.
I get it.
They, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And sometimes it's like what's comfortable telling a certain number is not comfortable
telling another number.
All right, enough stipulations, enough trying to get out of it.
Let's have the questions, Andrew.
Let's fucking go.
How many questions are we talking, Andrew?
There's quite a few.
How many you got?
I got at least 40.
Fucking hell.
Let's give it a go.
Some of these will be one-line answers.
Yeah, straight.
I'm straight.
Well, that's, now I've only got 10.
We'll start gentle.
We're starting.
God, that means this.
It's like a challenge on I'm a celebrity.
I know.
Okay, they're a mix.
They're a mix of like, oh, what's your favorite, blah, blah, blah.
And like, oh, would you rather's?
And then some very deep, intense personal questions.
Okay.
I actually like that mix.
But we'll start with the would you rather.
Please.
If your hands could squirt a different liquid out of each finger,
what liquid would you like each finger to squirt?
Coffee, cold iced water, orange juice,
five alive from the early noughties,
which is a drink
orange squash
already diluted
apple and black
current squash
already diluted
red wine
rosé cider
vodka shots
why does it need to be diluted
if you have water
on one of the fingers
no because it's just
then awake and just go
ah
I would like them to squirt
these two
these two
Sacco and gin and tonic
no it's correct
these two
these two fingers
I like champagne
two fingers
for champagne
yep I want to be able to
like giving people glasses as a
go. Oh, that's charming. Yeah.
It's very nice. A warder. A wardery
thumb, for sure.
Don't mind a bit of peach squash
diluted. You do love your Robinson's peach.
A little bit of peach squash. And then maybe
maybe like a Diet Coke
or coffee. Coffee's nice. Yeah, I thought
Diet Coke, but then I thought I'd be on it too much.
My entire left hand,
oil. I'm going to be rich.
That's smart. Like petroleum
oil. Yeah, I'm going to be
fucking loaded.
oil
oh can I change one of
black gold baby
I'm sorry you have committed now
I also think I should have a lager for the lads
you know also sorry to like not help
the environment but I don't know what liquid
is environmentally friendly and
is there a sustainable liquid that
provides energy well I mean if it's coming from
your fingers surely it's sustainable
oh my god
that's good
no wait because isn't it the burning of the fossil fuels that's the issue
also Catherine would get kidnapped so fast
like the person would get a limited source of oil
Oh my God, I'd get kidnapped! That's so exciting!
I don't want oil because I'd get kidnapped
and that's why I didn't choose it.
Smart, that's very smart.
I think ahead.
I can't believe I had this risk now.
Oh, I'll tell you what I also like.
Do you remember when we went to do that podcast for Jamie Lang
and we went in his officers and we went a bit mad stealing?
That was really good by the way.
I enjoyed that.
Is it out? Yeah.
Is it? Nobody told us.
Did you not know?
Oh, really?
It's called Write Me Dirty.
I didn't get me after.
Catherine and they write
fanfic about each other
Why do they not release our clips?
Why do they not?
I found out from the
Trustee Hogg's Discord.
We're not on the Discord
Okay, fascinating.
And you never will be.
All right, next question?
Next question.
We should listen to that.
This is from Cicada.
Hi, Cicada.
The last question was from,
it was from, I will find out
but yes.
We just know that we appreciate you.
We do appreciate you
Neve, yes
Neve. Okay last question was from Neve, thank you need
this is from Cicada, let's go
I love a Penelope retrospective
Have her readings held true so far this year
Did they resonate the first time
Penelope is of course our resident psychic
No, Cicada, they did not ring true
I am not doing well financially
As you know from last week's episode
If you're a Patreon
I've been spending a lot of money on congestion charge fines
I wouldn't say that anything
too specific has happened
however the information
to follow me in my intuition
and to not allow other people's opinions in
I think it was like
the right thing to say at the right time in my life
I think it's so easy to allow other people's opinions
or you should do this you should do that
and it's like sometimes I don't realise that
like I can say like no I don't want
that doesn't make me comfortable I don't want to do that
or like and it's like following intuition
to be like we've spoken about so many times
on the podcast but when you're a freelancer particularly
you're like if I don't take over the opportunity then I don't want it bad enough
then I won't earn money then I won't be able to do this as a job
and I've definitely been able to recently be a bit more like
no that's not right for me I don't need to do that yeah
that won't make a massive difference to me if I do it or not
but it will take a toll on mental health if I take another like five nights out of the flat
and I think that's really resonated true and everything else she says
I don't remember it all right now so it's a no from me and a yes from Helen
so in other words exactly where you expect is to get up
Your intuition did also put four-pest-free tablets down your gloves.
Sorry, sorry, Helen.
That wasn't my intuition.
That was my dyslexia.
That's a learning difference.
I have a learning difference.
Did she predict that you were going to wet yourself naked in a stairwell?
No what, you know what?
Next question, Andrew.
But also, she saw into my soul and she told me what I needed to know at the time.
If she'd have told me when you go to Australia, you'll get locked out of your room naked,
pissing yourself, I might not have gone.
She did also predict that my girlfriend is not the one for me
and I like her, so she's wrong.
Well, do you want a question about your girlfriend?
We'll see.
Oh my God, a question about my girlfriend.
I don't... Oh my God, Catherine hates
talking about Ellen. No, not a question about Ellen.
This is from Josephine.
Actually, another person also asked the same question.
Given it's worked out and they've been together for a year,
could Catherine tell us how she met Ellen and got together with her?
We've got clues and such from the podcast extras
and also from Nish Kumar Live.
But, like, how did they get locked in a room before Catherine's show, et cetera?
Have we never told this on the podcast?
No, okay, let me get into it.
So, basically we, okay, so I knew of their double act, Brittany.
And I knew Charlie, who's the other member of it, who's in our podcast, a little bit.
And I thought Ellen was cute, but didn't know if she was queer or if she would fancy me, obviously.
Didn't know if she was
She had a bob when I last saw her
Yeah but like
Now obviously
Okay they've been gone for ages
But like even with the bob
Then we
So I was like
I'm just gonna convince two of my friends
To come see their show
And the premise of the show was
Does anyone fancy us
Which of us do you fancy?
So I was like
I don't know I fancy her
How do I do that?
So I messaged Charlie and was like
Can I get you guys a drink?
What a great show
Charlie didn't reply
And then hours later
It was like sorry
We were playing cards in the meadows
And I was like
Well there's an absolute shutdown
if ever there was and we were playing cards
I was like fine that's cool
but they genuinely were
I was of course they were they fucking love cards
that and Monopoly deal I can't
Anyway
It's all they do
You guys should really hang out over
I've only played it in German
but I'd be up for it
What's Monopoly deal
It's just a card game of Monopoly
where you collect like
But it's like there's no board
It's incredible
It's so boring
Anyway my mom was playing cards
So Ellen and her play for hours
But the point is that
We
then I went out
I had a break up before Edinburgh
and was feeling quite down
and then I met up with
like really near the end I met up with Shelf
we know him and we love him
and I was like no one's flirting with me
no one fancies me I'm gonna...
Even though a lot of people thought Catherine was
done a relationship so they wouldn't have
but they wanted to... And then
they were like have you tried going out
and I was like
no
and then I was like fuck off guys
I'm not doing that.
I'm lame.
You were doing a lot of going out at 10 in the morning and buying a plant or a cat.
The next morning, yeah, I was doing my mental health gay thing.
The next morning, have a story about that as well, which is that based on my Instagram,
Ellen thought I was in a relationship and thought I was, in her words, a mental health gay.
And Georgie had a t-shirt, once she heard this for my birthday,
had a t-shirt embroidered for me that says mental health gay.
But anyway, so, um,
Then I went to my director, Charlie Dinkin, we know her we love her.
Friend of the pod.
And I was like, oh, God.
Every single morning in Edinburgh, I was doing my show.
And then the next morning I was talking to her about how it gone.
And then she was like, hey, I told her the story.
And she was like, yeah.
And the thing is, it's like 20 days into the run.
There's really nothing to do with the show now.
I have to say that I agree with your friends.
Like, maybe, like, when your director is like,
maybe you should try going out one time because you seem boring.
and um no your show was a lot earlier in the day than other people's as well but it was like you were
also at my show for the end of it every single day yeah and then um and then do you want to coffee
do you and then i'm nice to you anyway then the point is I went to on the night out and nobody hit
on me nobody I was like not feeling it and I was about to go home and just as I was leaving
ellen walked in and I was like maybe I'll just save for one more drink um so I bought her a drink
and then we flirted
I thought for like two hours
and then her friend was like
what's going on here
and Ellen was like
we're fighting and I was like
we're not fighting we're flirting
Ellen just hasn't noticed yet
and then she was like
how about a huh
because we flirt in different ways
and then we went home together
and then the next morning
when I came in Georgie's mom
who I stay with in Edinburgh
was like thank God
you were going to bed earlier than I am
does that answer your question
How'd you get locked in the plan?
Oh yeah
And then one morning
We were in
And George's mom went out
And she went out for the day
Usually I'd be gone by then for my show
Because I usually used to walk in
But I wasn't so she locked the front door
So she locked the front door
We went down and we were really cutting a fine
Like I had to get an Uber to my gig
Like I was like already cutting a fine
So bad
You know
Well when there's a hot lady there, it's hard
And then
oh so you did lose your virginity that summer
yeah sorry sorry sorry what a whore
no we were just kissing
I'll be fully closed
you're just kissing in the courtyard
you're doing a lot more when you're in trying
oh shut off and then
and then we were like
fuck so then
so then we had to climb out the window
the end does that do
they were already together when they
Catherine didn't I feel like maybe now
we made it sound in the podcast that you locked
yourself in a room with Ellen
to be like, do you fancy me?
Oh my God, no, Jesus.
They were already, they were already frotting themselves senseless.
Next question.
Well, this seems like quite a relevant next question.
From Charlotte.
Hi, Charlotte.
For Helen.
For Helen.
If Helen did finally decide to not be the straightest woman in comedy.
Thank you.
This is such a good question.
I'm already hyped.
You have to answer it.
Which famous by or lesbian comedian would she want to go for?
Oh my God.
That's such a good question.
Oh my God, there's so many really fit ones.
Yeah, but you have to choose one.
Take your time.
Take your time.
That's such a good question.
Can I list some options at you?
No, because then I feel like we're listing and I'll be saying no, but it'll sound nasty, but it's not.
Do you know what I feel like I just need to pick the one.
Okay, I'm just going to like do a scenario in my head.
Okay, it's late at night.
I'm at a gig.
We're doing the gig together.
They're backstage.
Obviously, just to be clear, Catherine Bowhart is not an option in this and neither is Ellen.
Oh, Ellen is.
No, Ellen can't be an option in this.
She is.
Then I'd probably, I'd probably frot Ellen.
No.
Woohoo!
Honestly, me and Olga Koch would have the ride of all time.
Do you think Olga?
We'd have such a great ride.
Me and Chloe would argue too much.
I know Olga's got the energy.
I'm going to go for cock.
Of course.
The most straight woman choice of the bisexual.
I'm going for cock.
She's going for cock.
That's the straightest answer you could have given.
I'm going for cock.
That's very funny.
She's still the best.
the straightest woman in comedy
That's so hot
Could you imagine?
It's just such a straight answer
That's so funny
I don't think all the cock is a straight answer
I think it's just like
The word cock is a straight answer
Her energy
Do you get the jokes
I do
But
Fair fine
But just know that I would have a good
Gone most of the girls
Carry on
Funny funny
Are you picturing this like
Backstage at the Comedy Store
no meaning
there's quite a tight space
not really
you know when there's no other
comedians they're going
it's not the same
on stage of the comedy story
on stage
yeah they have 25 pounds
it's not enough
no I agree
you gotta pay a lot more for that
all right Andrew next question
fabulous question
whoever that who's that from
Charlotte
thank you Charlotte
what's the surname of Charlotte
I don't know
I've not taken surname's
damn it
what careers would you have
if not comedy
this is from Yaz's
what careers would you have
if not comedy
midwife
Yeah
Yeah
That's nice
I really like that for you
I think you'd be bringing down it
Um
Um
Um
Motiv
Um
Fuck
You really don't know
Librarian
In like one of those really
Fancy libraries
No
I think
Probably
Motivational speaker
Mental health nurse
Oh, shit, I think I'd be like...
You'd be good at everything you do.
No, I think I'd be like a teacher.
Yeah.
Which I'd be bad at.
No.
So you'd be a bad teacher?
I think I would be very moody and I don't think that's fair to children.
I'd also like to work in a craft shop specialising in dollhouses.
My, actually, ideally, pastry chef.
Really?
Yeah.
I'd also like to become one of the, like, new Brendan from coach trip.
Yeah, like that.
Okay.
Like a tall guy, a coach trip.
tool guide for like americans coming over and being like this is stone hint i like that i can see that
for you thank you everyone um who oh hmm we've got shagmary kill fuck helen andrew katherine and
kloy pets obviously take yourself out of each equation okay okay all right i'm ready wow that was
quick go on then katherine shag mary kill me helen clopets shag chag chloe pets because she's the only one of you
He knows what they're doing with me.
I've masturbated.
I know what I'm doing as well with you.
No, shank Chloe Pets.
Sorry, Anne.
Sorry, Andrew.
Peace be with you.
I'm going to have to kill you.
I'll tell you for why.
It's as shocking to me, as it is to you,
because I think that I want to be the most Ept one in my relationship.
And we are the same part to a marriage.
Wait, what's Ept?
You're inept.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh, that was unkind.
I just think that if you and I'm, to be clear, I think we'd have the happier marriage.
But I think that I'm a, I have a savior complex.
Fair, that.
And I also think that realistically we were the same guy and each marriage needs one of us, I think.
That's my opinion.
No, I can see that.
I can see that.
Okay.
So yeah, I'm marrying Helen, I guess.
Okay.
Sorry, Andrew.
I'd fuck Andrew, because I imagine the soundtrack would be so theatrical.
And I've never done it to Phantom of the Opera, but it's sort of a dream of mine.
Oh my God.
I love them.
I think we'd have a wonderful night.
Like, it'd be fun.
Neither us would feel good.
No.
We'd have, like, we'd make a play of it.
It'd be role play, and it'd be joyful.
Hell and good role play is a big man.
That'd be kind of sad.
Pet does piss me off sometimes, but so do you.
Oh, God, you're both quite frustrating.
But also lovely, lovely, lovely ladies.
Tough with friends.
This is a tough game.
I will kill.
game man
I think
I'll kill Catherine
yes I'll kill Catherine
I'll marry Chloe
yes but in a nice way
I'll kill her in a nice way
she won't see it coming
just a bullet in the back of the head
she won't even know it
like a cow
stun her why are you marrying pets
she wants
maybe like
10 minutes more patience
than you in general situations
also with love
like a slightly slower
walking pace
like still
fast but not quite as fast as you
I feel a lot of the time
She's got such long leg
No I feel a lot of the time when we're walking on the street
I'm like having to
Like I feel like a naughty child
Who's like gonna lose their mummy
Because you weave and I'm too big to weave
I can't weave because it's so obvious
If I nudged someone
Why have you never said this? I could have adjusted
I have said so many times
And you go keep up
Keep up! Come on Helen! Yes!
But aren't you usually like
eating something or smoking
and that's why you can't keep on.
We have to adapt
because if we're married
we must...
I'm not always eating
walking down the street.
Always eating.
Always eating.
I smoke standing still.
I don't walk and smoke.
I think that's gauche.
I think it's ghost.
I think it's ghost to do that.
No, Catherine, I'm sorry.
I think if we fuck
it would be a tutorial
or like a lesson
and that's not necessarily fun.
I think it would be like a medical
and I think if we got married.
I'd be like, what's that?
You've got to get that treated.
You need to get that.
that needs the tweezers that needs a cream i did tweeze it the other day yeah it's still a cyst
but the hair's that we so andrew um i'd probably go the same as helen chag helen for the sort
of experience of it all yeah i think especially because neither of us our hearts won't be in it
section our parts won't be in it yeah yeah um so i feel like we will put a lot into the ambiance
oh come on christine and christine diane and the phantom like doing the whole i love that
We could pick a different, like, sort of musical theatre partnership for each act of the...
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, like a West Side Story moment.
Yeah, lovely.
I think we didn't, we'd have a nice night for something that would be tricky for us, yeah.
And to marry?
I think, hmm, similar logic about the...
Someone has to marry Caff when she'll die.
No, it's okay.
Let's ask pets.
Yeah, I will say...
It's okay, let's ask back!
I will ask Chloe to voice note in her opinion here as well.
We'll ask her now.
Yeah, that's fabulous.
I think I think I would marry Chloe.
I get it.
I really get it.
I think if I wanted to watch the football, you would send me down the pub.
I feel like I wasn't be allowed to watch it in the lounge.
Oh my God, you're so right because it's the good room.
It's the nice room.
You're dead right.
You wouldn't be laid in there at all, to be honest with Andrew.
Yeah, so I think for the pure sort of continuation of my current life.
The horrible thing.
I would go for Chloe.
I'm married Capwin.
I think I'd be very happy and at peace.
And like, what's the word?
I wouldn't have to worry.
I'd worry for not marrying you, Catherine.
But I think maybe I need a little bit of worry.
I'd worry all the time, marrying Catherine.
I'd make you eat less bait.
And you'd hate that.
That's going to be a problem, yeah.
Yeah, you'd hate it.
I'd be like trying to diversify your intake.
I wouldn't be able to go to the toilet.
I wouldn't be able to eat without a plate.
I wouldn't be able to.
You'd have quit smoking within six months.
You hate it.
That's good.
That's tempting for me.
I do want to quit smoking.
so that that then tempts me to you.
But I also think Chloe can bring that energy too
at a slightly slower pace.
Chloe Pets is free right now.
Let's have it.
Chloe Pets.
Yes.
Okay, hello, you might recognise my voice.
This is Chris Tarrant from Who Wants to Be a Millionaire.
We have Andrew right here.
We are doing the 100th episode of Trusty Hogs
and we're doing an Ask Me Anything.
Here is the question for Chloe Pets.
You have 30 seconds to answer.
Andrew. The next voice you hear is your friend Andrew.
Hi, Chloe. I'm so sorry that I'd be made to ask you this,
but the question is, shag, marry, kill, me, Helen, Catherine.
Easy.
Shag Catherine, marry Andrew, kill Helen.
Bye. Bye.
Fuck you.
And I've hung up.
That was insane.
I absolutely love that the two actual queer people, queer women, were like,
I'll be taking the pro, please.
One pro, please.
Is Andrew the only one that didn't get killed?
No, Catherine killed me.
Chloe didn't get killed.
Chloe didn't get killed.
I nearly killed Chloe.
Yeah.
Well, you know what, I'd like to change my answer.
Good luck getting off that cliff without my help, Chloe.
Chuck you!
I'll chuck you!
Dover!
Well done, everyone.
Well done.
I can't believe you just hung up on her.
She was being a bitch.
So funny.
Next question, please.
So did the Shagmarry a kill?
Who are moving away from sexual questions?
But I love you, Catherine.
I love you too, Catherine.
Oh my God, I love you too.
We just don't want to fucking marry you.
Oh, and that's totally fine.
And I love you both, but like...
You want to marry Helen, no.
But I don't want to live in the same house as either of you, so it's fine.
We got this.
We both wear dresses.
I know, be so nice.
I'd get a little Janet cup just to surprise you.
Stop it.
Yeah.
I'd take out my bad tip for you on the wedding day just for full circle.
And I'd walk down the aisle to the circle of life.
Why, it's perfect, because that's what I call my...
Anyway, let's go, Andrew.
A little ginger stinger.
Nice.
This is from Chloe, and she says,
who do you get your advice from?
Obviously, we dish out a lot of advice on trusty hogs,
or very in quality, but who do you go for life advice?
I don't take advice very well.
um Helen
annoying
no
you do you know I do
yeah but only like
three times a year
when you're in genuine peril
do you come to me
yeah but that's
it's always a teary phone call
it's never just like
genuine day to day
Helen and well to be fair
the person I go to probably like most
Georgie
yeah most consistently is Georgie
I have come to you
for crisis
and I go to Georgie for advice
I'm good at crisis
yeah that's probably more accurate
crisis is where I shine
day to day I go to you for like little things.
Yeah.
You're very good at sort of being like,
that's not even worth it being a thing in your head.
Yeah.
I should say Francis and Gwyneth,
but I don't know if I do.
I'm not very good at taking advice.
I would say neither of us are very good at taking advice.
Probably my therapist, but even then I'm like,
okay, Nicola, we'll see.
Show me your workings, Nicola.
Show me your workings.
I just don't take it very.
I like to call up friends like I'll call Catherine, Gwyneth, Francis,
like just for a moan.
Yeah, and I'll call up you, Georgie, Chloe to see what you're saying.
If I agree with any of them, I'll take that advice.
And if I don't love up.
I think, Chloe, just do banter.
Sometimes I'll ask my sister for advice if I know it's like I need to go over
because it'll be so brutal.
Like, I'll be like, oh, I don't know what you should wear to this thing.
Or like, do you think I should do this gig or this gig?
And she'll be like, no one cares.
You're such an embarrassment.
You're such a fucking loser.
And I'm like, thank you so much.
Love you, love you.
And then just hang up.
Great to talk.
Bye.
At least I know exactly where he stands.
She's like,
it's an embarrassment and everyone hates you.
Love that.
Okay, thanks.
Love that.
I'd say get yourself a young, aggressive, autistic woman in your life if you're missing one.
Yeah.
Yeah, love that.
Who do you go to for comfort?
Because when I'm in, like, if I just need someone to, like, to mammy me,
but also be, like, sort of fair, but very, very kind,
I go to Karen.
For comfort.
Definitely, Francis and Gwyneth.
Yeah.
Lots of teary, cuddly nights.
My friend Alice as well is incredibly, like, mother-like, comforting.
Also, my mother, over the years, not as of late while we're working on our relationship.
But, yeah.
Not Sunil Patel or my father, I'll tell you that.
Work advice, Sophie Duker?
Very good.
Really?
Very good.
And if I'm cucking anything, it's my mother.
Nice.
And if it's correlated, it's Andrew.
Oh, thank you.
Well, a little too late for that.
Yeah, sorry.
Andrew, next question?
Well, we'll stick with advice.
And more specifically, from Isabel,
what is the best piece of advice
and the worst piece of advice you've ever received?
I know my best piece of advice
from my mother when I was six
and I stand by it and remind myself every single day.
Never jump in a puddle
if you can't remember the last time it's rained.
Never.
And I do think that just counts for every day.
everyone.
Oh my God.
Because she was like,
I'm just sick of these
fucking kids I've got
jumping in these piss puddles.
So just,
that's just for everyone.
That's so funny.
Best piece of advice,
that's that.
Worst piece of advice.
Oh God.
Oh,
this one still bothers me
even though I know we say
it sometimes in the podcast.
You're so young.
You've got ages.
You've got your whole life ahead of you.
I remember being 13
hearing that 14, 15,
all the way up until now
and people still say
you're so young
and I'm like
I don't have that energy
I've got the
Go Go Go energy
I've got the Vienna
by Billy Joel song energy
like slow down
you crazy child
like keep going
and I really hate to people
like you've got ages
and it's like
you don't know that
yeah fuck you
like but we still say it
on this every now
and again
we literally said it last week
but I think that was more
that last time was about
like how it wasn't weird
to have not done this thing
by a certain age
not that you shouldn't want it
but that it's not weird
to have done it
by then but the um the slow down thing like i think all three of us have like run at life very
fast which i think is amazing and a great thing and when you're told to slow down it has a similar
effect on me as when people say calm down which is like inherently just like you're telling me
to change your way and also like we're our expectations for our life and ourselves can be
different so everyone always says like slow down you're not in a rush it's like well look at you
look at you
I fucking um
I don't want to work in sewage with my dad
you know like that she's I don't want it
I don't want it
um best and worst advice
I guess all worst advice
I've ever received has been to do
was like um
diet advice
diet culture is but
listen to maintenance phase
and the best advice I ever received
is that
oh god it's so cliché
go on
follow your heart
because I swear to God I'll chuck you out of the room
My dad's always like you never know
what somebody has going on at home.
It's like his go-to phrase, you never know.
And I think that it's a lesson I've had to learn a thousand times, a thousand times.
I'll be like, what the fuck is that?
Like, and Ellen always says to me because I'll like come in fuming and she'll be like, yes,
that person exists to be, they're actually, they're motivated to be a villain.
And then I'll be like, okay, well, maybe they're actually trying to be bad.
But there are some villains out there.
But like, my point is that like, yeah, I think I often forget that, like,
like everyone has something going on. Often there's people you don't know very well. Often it's
things you don't know anything about or won't know anything about forever or for a long time.
People have shit going on.
Hello, it's Helen Bauer plugging my tour. What are you doing, Helen? I'm plugging my tour.
My new show, Grand Supreme Darling Princess, is on tour at this very moment. I'm in
Harris this weekend. I'm in Harlem this weekend. And then I'm going to pool. I've got a week at
London at the Soho Theatre from the 25th to the 30th. I'm Brighton, Maidenhead, Manchester, Winchester,
Belfast, Cork, Dublin, Leeds, Nottingham. I'm everywhere. I am everywhere. Go on to my website,
helenbauer.com.com. UK. And please book tickets and bring the coolest, coolest people and
ideally Disney fans, because it makes such a difference. Love you so much.
We will go to
Sadie.
Hello, Sadie.
How I think we know who that is?
How many say this is?
Hi, Sadie.
Not really a question,
but what would be everyone's roses and thorns
of the last 100 shows?
A single rose and single thorn.
A great question. A great question.
I know what my thorn and my rose are.
I don't know what my rose is.
go on go first
okay my rose is
how incredibly successful it's become
I genuinely feel like the amount of support we've had
is so it's really hard to know
if you're doing anything right sometimes
and the joy of the podcast
has been like watching the numbers go up on Patreon
watching the numbers go up on listenership
watching you guys come to our shows
meeting you after shows that has been
like I don't think I've had that from anything else
like any other job I've done in this field
where it's like really rewarding
like yeah it's just sort of immediately like
I feel like we built a community of people
who also matter to each other
and who and like the fact that
when people do come up to us afterwards it's usually to say
like oh I look forward to that morning
because it gets me to work or because it gets me to
okay we have such different interactions so nice
well yeah and so it's really nice
and that would be my rose and my thorn
if I'm honest
is the level of detail
I now know about your body
as if
if that was your thorn
then how come there's so many follow-ups
post-records
how are you feeling now
is that okay
yeah you've made me feel utterly responsible for you
unbelievable
um
okay my thorn
I'll do in picture
no really yeah okay yeah fascinated no what about your rose though my rose what intrigue now even i want to hear the patron
about that i mean be there because i will be i guess i want to say i mean it is what katherine just said but i feel like
i should have something more specific than that yeah i should have my own one um like it yeah it's just
I love that we've done it and kept it going
and I like that we've become
even closer and stronger as a team as it's gone on
I don't know if everyone's aware of this
but like there's so many times people do podcasts
and it's sort of like their friendship sort of goes
or like it becomes like a business
but not something where they
we get to have fun together
and I love that we managed to do it
that's actually so true there was a day last week
we hadn't seen M in ages
and she was able to come and we were
all losing our minds we were like the whole gang like yeah that's really special yeah you're
right that's so nice obviously meeting the hogs and like seeing people come to stuff oh that's so nice
yeah I don't know just the general the whole thing Andrew um I mean my rose I echo obviously
both your roses um but your actual rose I think I think I will change it for variety but that
will probably be my roses is keeping going everything um I think for me personally
the having the hogs support my staff comment on TikToks and come to shows and stuff is really cool
because I you know I don't have any like TV profile or anything I don't really have like a massive fan base
and I think it's been a quite a large injection of trusty hogs people who have come over to watch my content
and they love you yeah so I really like that my thorn um okay I've got a thorn I'll say now
the time that Andrew and Catherine got free tickets to the Lion King and went
without me.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Thank you so much to Georgie.
Our listener, Georgie, thank you so much.
That really just came in.
You were like, boom.
Feel free to send more, Georgie.
I'm back to me.
My thorn probably will be,
would be like the very early days
when we were like trying to turn it over
for like the next day
and I was up at like 2am editing and stuff.
And also we weren't even making money back then.
So it was a lot of work
and travelling into London.
Yeah.
But it's been well worth it.
So a thorn, I was very willing to suffer.
Woo-hoo!
And you did suffer.
We were so bad then.
Our records were so long.
It was stressful.
And we had no idea what we should share and what we shouldn't share.
And now we don't even think.
Now we don't even care.
We don't fucking scare.
Now we're like, we fucking are, bitches.
By the beginning, finding out, like, where our line was with our personal life and people in our lives.
Yeah.
Andrew, next question.
These are great questions.
I'm having still a little time.
I'm not.
so emotional right now.
I could cry.
Did you not cry?
I'm so proud of us.
Oh, that's nice.
Yeah, when you put it like that, yeah,
I'm really proud of us.
I'm really proud of us that this kind of got built out of a bad,
shitty thing.
Like, we started Gigless during Lockett.
I think the fact that it's been like,
I also don't think we would have started the podcast without the,
there was a confidence in us all, I think, after Giglis,
that there were some people who would listen,
and some people who thought we were a good little group.
And I said no to doing it for a couple of weeks
because I thought me and Rosie Jones
were doing another season
because we didn't know whether we got another season
of Daddy look at me before our studio closed down as well.
And it's like how easily it could have just been like, I didn't do it.
I know.
And not only did we know that people would support us
because they've been so lovely during Giglose.
I don't even remember.
We had people signing up to the Patreon
before we'd release the series.
That's right.
Oh, I love you all.
Oh, okay, you've got to make me teary now.
Next, Andrew.
Well, let's absolutely wreck the emotional
vibe in the room.
If anyone else is feeling emotional,
do not go on to Instagram and type in Highland Cowbby.
I have a question.
Here's one that'll break the,
that I've always wanted to ask you, Helen.
You know your bit on stage
about your dad waffle stomping his shit down the shower?
How did you know about it?
Did he actually tell people?
That's the anecdote, yeah.
That's his favourite anecdote about that.
He tells themselves.
That's my bit of material about it,
is that he is so proud of the time
he was an engineer.
Next. Next, now I feel too sick, actually.
He went too far the other way. He's my hero.
Okay, maybe I'll ask. My daddy. My hero.
I won't ask that one next.
We'd love to know how Catherine does such a perfect red lip
from Holly.
Okay, thank you for the question.
Okay, but I want a question similar to that.
Okay, here we go.
Powder on your lips. You're like translucent powder.
You're setting powder first. Then,
sorry, at the end, even when you've got done your lip is an important thing.
Okay, calm down.
You've got so ever excited
because this question
was clearly a compliment
from a woman
and you've immediately freaked out.
Okay.
You're sitting down in front of your mirror.
Start again.
I get my Mac pencil liner.
I sharpen it.
The narrow the line the better.
I draw my line
and then I fill it in with
on my lip
once it's perfect
then I fill it in with a pencil as well
because that's going to
give you a longer lasting lip.
Then I do
Mac Cabanero
as my lipstick
color. Then I put
translucent powder, setting powder over it.
And I will
sometimes, if I put on too much, if I think this is
going to smudge, I will blot it with a
tissue. But I don't do that thing where people
go, on the
thing, I just hold the tissue to my
lips. And I pick it a scab, wait
for a bit of blood to come out and rub it on my lips
and go, and I'm ready for a night
out on the town. Next question.
I'll often use the same lipstick color.
I'll just dab some of it on my finger and put it on my
cheeks because then you get the same blush and same lip of the sweet.
And for more feminist advice, please write in too nice.
Andrew, that's the clip.
Thanks for the question.
Love the podcast.
This is from Jay.
Hi, Jay.
I want to know everybody's celebrity crush and, more importantly, if that crush said
they were up for it, would you ditch a current partner to go with them instead?
Are we assuming then that my current partner is Sinell Patel on my fingers?
Um, is it Patel or Fingus?
Um, Patel, Patel, Patel. Okay, I'll, I didn't snail for anything. Jesus Christ.
Um, okay. Oh my God. I've always got a James McAvoy thing going on. That's just like general in the back of my head.
Um, Jeremy Clarkson just, hi. I don't know why. I'm not okay with it either. Um, oh my God.
Do you know the story of Jeremy Clarkson, by the way, why he's, why he became a media mogul?
No.
His parents were like to make a bit of extra money
started like selling stuffed Pallington Bears
and then the guy who actually owns the Pallington Bears
intellectual property was like
you can't do that. They met them in London
to like sue them basically and start litigation
but then Jeremy Clarkson's dad met the guy in the lift
just by chance they hit it off so the guy was like
okay you can have the licensing rights for Pallington Bears stuffed toys
they then have the made so much money to send
that son to public school and that son became Jeremy Clarkson.
Isn't that crazy?
Be nice to people in lifts.
You never know if you have going on a lot.
I've got the Jason Mamoa thing, but who fucking doesn't?
I've also got the Idris Elba thing, but who fucking doesn't?
Wow.
Just one.
Just one.
You imagine it?
You don't make yourself calm believe.
selling myself on
Saw the hogget
from Babe
that said it
Are you serious?
He's kind
That's your choice
He's strong
He's mature
Wow
Next question
Eight from Steps
He's also very cute
Huh
God I'm really panicking
And I'm not sure
There's so many good choices
Yeah they're not
In the whole world
While you're thinking I would say
I would normally say
Troy Savan for this question.
Oh, yeah.
He's hot, but he's in Australia.
It's going to be very hard for you to meet.
Yeah, it will be hard for us to meet.
Also, there's been different eras of Troy in how he presents,
and I've not been attracted to all of them.
Okay.
But on the whole, Troy Savan would be my subject crush.
I would not leave him to him, though, no.
That's so sweet.
You wouldn't.
Okay, look, I'm going to choose...
Oh, Maui from Moana.
Right.
That level of big lad, if we're doing cartoon-y sort of vibes.
We're not.
Okay.
Kate Blanchett and Ellen would be offended if I didn't.
Fair. Fair.
And Kate Blanchett's fucking hot.
Like from notes on a scandal when she slept with a teenager.
No, like for, although thank you for comparing me to a teenager.
No.
You're welcome.
From Carol.
While we are also turned on, well, mainly Helen,
there is an early episode reference to the scene in Friends.
Apparently, early in the Trusty Hugs episodes,
we reference the seven original zones.
Yes! Yes, I remember this.
The seven, seven, seven!
Yeah.
Monaco's showing Chandler, the Aboriginesones.
Can you please teach us what they are?
It's confused me from years.
That's from Jessica.
I think I was asking as well.
Okay, clit, tip, nipples, ear, neck.
This is what I'm saying.
I don't know.
Ashole, is asshole?
That doesn't turn me on at all.
mouse
is mouth
on a rudderner sign
um
I
oh yes
hang on
I've got yes
yes lips lips lips
lips
penis
um
no I think that
they're all based around a female
oh sorry
um
well
the clit and the
G spot
oh yeah of course
and
yeah
anyone got a penis
um
the G spot
and the clit
the same thing
we're arguing
back of knee or something
is there like a knee one
a leg one ass
ass
well according
According to Monica, it's ears, lips, neck, breast, but in the thighs and vagina.
In the thighs, yeah, that actually is a real, else, an erogenous sign.
Yeah.
Okay, well, there you go, yes, you can.
That actually makes sense.
There you go.
There you go, you're welcome.
You're welcome.
You're welcome.
You're welcome, Jessica.
Oh my God, I haven't had someone, like, really fancy, like, having their hand on my leg for so long.
Yeah, nice.
Oh, it's so hot.
Oh, it's nice.
Yeah, it's really nice.
Can you stop turning us all on?
Andrew, Nick.
I'm emotional and now horny.
This is a terrible mix.
All right, well, let's try to turn you off.
Please, please.
Would you rather perform on stage naked or evidently shit yourself on stage?
This is from Lindsay.
You know that the naked one is like a viable option.
I've been asked to do that gig.
They do it in Leicester Comedy Festival.
They definitely do it in Edinburgh.
And it's like naked comedy and comedians perform naked.
So would you rather do that gig or have a gig where you have evidently shit yourself on stage?
Hmm.
I mean, both would be quite funny.
I mean, I do naked, because I think you'll be one of many who've done that,
whereas how many people have actually shit themselves on stage?
I remember when Hugh pissed himself on stage.
What?
He, like, sat down behind the keyboard, and he hadn't finished weeing in the urinal.
And then, obviously, when he sat down and started playing his music,
like the rest of the wee release from him,
and then he had to stand up to leave the stage.
It was back in the day when he used to sit down with the keyboard.
He was like, I'm going to have to love it with you guys.
I've wet myself before he stood up.
But weeing and shitting is so different.
I'm really struggling to choose.
I mean, naked, naked, yeah.
Yeah.
The thing is,
it would maybe be funny about the poo thing,
but you can't really take back
that all those people have seen you naked.
I don't want them to see me naked.
I think I'd have a really hard time
being naked in front of that many people.
But you'd find pooing yourself.
No, no, no, not ideal,
but I assume that that would be against my will.
Let's say it's a wet poo.
Oh.
In a skirt with no...
Naked.
Yeah.
There we go.
And you have to stay on stage after the emcees left to clean up.
But I don't want to do either.
But I don't want to do naked.
No.
I don't want to either.
This is from Catriona.
Hi, Katriana.
Do you mean Katrina?
Yeah, it's definitely Katrina.
A, A-T-R-I-O-N-A.
Katrina.
Is that Katrina?
Yeah.
Yeah, but I love Katriana.
Yeah, she's fun.
Nice girl.
I also read it out loud as Katriana in my head.
Okay.
I just said, yeah, I've never seen them before.
Somebody has sent us, she has sent us, sorry, not somebody.
And some wine glasses.
What?
What?
It's very sweet.
They've not arrived yet.
Woo-hoo, thank you.
But they will be coming here to the studio.
For Helen, not for Catherine.
For both of you.
And Andrew.
For my new house.
Perfectly new house.
Yeah, and I assume there'll be some for me as well.
Snail don't have anyone.
Crazy assumption.
We use mugs.
We use mugs for wine.
Yeah.
She sent us wine glasses, thank you so much.
If there's not one for me, I think I should have it instead of Helen.
She sent them for us.
We'll see.
We'll see what comes.
Thank you, Katrina.
Thank you.
I met Helen after the Oslo show.
Stop it.
My partner was the lucky man to have, look at me.
Oh my God, I remember her.
She was in the front row.
Yes. If anyone who hasn't seen the show, I do pick one man at the beginning of the show.
Scream, look at me in his face periodically for an hour.
He was being disrespectful to her partner and we did speak about it afterwards.
That's why she sent apology glasses.
She must.
Which did make me wonder, if Helen managed to achieve a full female audience.
That which is my dream.
Who's being screamed about it?
Who's being screamed at?
God, this woman's great with the questions.
I actually know this because I have had this problem before.
my main like if we're taking men out the equation
the audience members I struggle with the most
are girls who find something funny you say
even if it is like a bit disgusting or a bit embarrassing
to maybe laugh because it's a recognition of a truth
and instead of laughing they go to their boyfriend like
ugh like they look at their boyfriend in the room so you won't be able to tell
oh my god yes okay then the girls that do that to each other like
like she's do you know what I mean or the ones that go
like they're babies and they can't laugh out loud
and they've got to cover their face
and I'm sure it's a society that's taught them they have to do that
but laugh openly and don't roll your eyes
other women or people
like it's just because people have taught us
that we can not say what we think or be open
So basically whoever makes you feel remotely threatened
Yeah and I will fucking ruin you
Yeah next
This is from Maddie
I think this is great question
Hi Maddie
If you can remake a classic movie, but cast hogs, i.e. ourselves and previous guests, what film?
We didn't assume they meant pigs, are you?
What film?
And who?
Okay, I know this one already.
So the 1990s, Danny DeVito's Matilda, Zinia Wormwood for me, Mr. Wormwood for Andrew, Matilda, Catherine.
Oh, that'd be good.
Yeah, and then obviously Chloe's Miss Honey.
Love that.
And you get Zindu Vita.
Oh, my God, reprise are all of Miss Feltz.
Yeah.
Gorgeous.
Selma and Louise.
Oh no.
Selma, Louise, Brad Pitt.
So which one of us gets sexually assaulted?
I mean, both eventually.
Which one gets sexually assaulted?
At the beginning.
I don't know.
I'm Susan Sarandon, basically.
I don't know which one is Selma.
Oh, I get sexually assaulted.
I'm Gina Davis.
Yeah.
Okay.
What a fun part for me.
Andrew gets cast as Brad Pitt, though, pretty excited.
That's good, yeah, good for me.
It's better than Danny DeVito.
True.
I don't know.
I quite like us as the one.
words. That's quite fun. Me too. Ask Zinio and Harry.
I know you, Andrew.
Oh, um, you know, I'm not,
I'm not a massive film person. This is a slight problem. The
correct answer is little women. Right.
Um, and your, uh...
Laurie.
Laurie, no, I, that's not...
Fred Vaughn. I'd have put him as Meg.
We have, we've talked about our little women in cut things before.
Meg, Joe, and I think Beth, I'm only for...
Beth as... I'm Joe. I'm Joe, and you're Beth.
I'm Joe. You're as winding him of being sick. You're Beth.
You know, you know what Elle is.
You're Amy.
you're such an Amy
I just want to refer you to the colouring book
You're in Amy
Trusty Hogg's colouring book
Which is now
You're ripping out of the door
There we go
Okay we're back
Helen very enthusiastically
Pulled out all the cables
Whilst trying to grab a colouring book
But she's got it now
I don't know my own strength
And I'm Joe in that picture my love
And this is L for little women
If you have a Trusty Hogg's colouring book
Obviously turn to page L
Also please send us some pictures
of you colouring it in
We've not seen any yet.
Oh yeah, that'd be so nice.
Okay, here it is.
But also, to be clear, you're such an Amy and I'm such a Joe.
I am clearly a Joe.
Yeah, I'm a Joe.
Baby, are you kidding?
I, no relationship and then finally gets with a bear and turns down guys that are interested in her.
You were constantly in a relationship.
Freedier, Frisierreiber.
That's the name of Gris, who she ends up with.
My love, I just think that you're so wrong.
No, you're being such a bear.
Wait, can I just actually tell you the truth?
I think I'm Meg and I think you're Amy
and I hate that it's true.
How am I Amy?
Because earlier when you didn't think you got to be the person that you wanted to be
you accidentally ripped out all the cables at a tantrum
a bit like Amy ripping up the book and putting it in the fire.
You would totally steal your sister's boyfriend if you liked him most.
Who you're calling?
Chloe Pats.
Yeah.
I don't know.
think she has this kind of time on her hands
I feel like she'll be busy now and I hope she is
for her sake
okay Chloe Petz is busy
can people vote on which sister they think each of us is
yeah please let us know
unbelievable
um would you like
wow
yes put you know
by the trustee host colouring back
yeah please do yeah limited stock left
you can you don't you know that one
yeah one andrew
well maybe this is a perfect time for this actually
from E who would like
a hundredth episode compliment circle
Andrew, do you want to start?
Yes.
For the whole
all hundred episodes
from beginning to end
I will base my confidence
off of that
and I will say
starting with Helen
Helen
your creativity
and passion
on Trustee Hoggs
is amazing
I don't think people
appreciate how much
you do behind the scenes
I do work hard
behind the scene
just not in the decision making
so hard
you'd work really hard on the clips
so really hard on all the admin, you're great.
Yeah, I think it's very easy for people to assume that it's all just produced and, you know, away from everything.
But it's a collaborative effort.
We're all in the WhatsApp group making suggestions, and you especially, Helen, are very, very caring of what goes out and what we do to grow this podcast.
You're very particular by the standards, I agree.
I am. I do. I care that you have good audio quality, everyone.
Indeed. So are we both benefit from your standards and your passion and your care for this podcast?
Thank you very much. Can I also give you a compliment?
Oh my God, yes.
You're the funniest person I know.
You are very, very funny.
I'll take it. Thank you very much.
Andrew, you work incredibly hard on this podcast.
I don't think we would have ever made it without you.
I'm in awe of how much you know about this industry and indeed the tech side of things,
which we are clueless on, or certainly I am.
And I'm very grateful to you.
You worked really, really hard.
Thank you.
Catherine, you always smell nice
Thank you
Andrew
You always have an exciting item of clothing on
And I think that's really cool
Well, thank you
You're welcome, done, done
I appreciate that
I didn't get mine from Andrew
I know, sorry, I was just coming around to that
It's true that you do always smell nice
You are the best spending person in the studio
Next question, Andrew? No, it's too late
No, I do. I smell nice
You do smell nice
No, give her another one
Otherwise it's going to freak out
It's going to freak out
I'm so sorry.
I'm sorry I've never
a little too long
or a fetter women, is it?
It's going to freak out.
It's got itself sad again.
Let's move on.
Can I actually say something?
Can I actually say something?
Sure, yeah.
I do. I don't have a genuine compliment.
Oh, Andrew.
It's not my fucking hair.
No, I think, Catherine,
first of all, on pod when we are talking,
you are always so insightful and interesting and empathetic.
I think as much as we have lots of fun
and are very silly and you're,
you're very funny as well um i think you're the heart you brings to this show and the heart
that you bring out of helen um is uh because i know she can be a just uh wanted cover everything
with jokes and katherine does soften me and katherine you make us all much more human and in touch
with ourselves and i i hope that comes across to the listener and also behind the scenes you are
so professional and on it you really care about both me and helen um not just in the podcast but
You're always looking out for our, like, opportunities.
Our actual careers.
Yeah.
You are a very, very wonderful person.
Oh, that's so nice.
But I do think you both are brilliant and deserve everything.
And so, of course.
This is such an emotional day.
Okay, next.
Give us another one.
That was so nice.
That was too nice.
I'm Joe.
Carry on.
Would you rather cum mayonnaise or sweat mustard?
Come mayonnaise.
Next question.
Interesting.
Okay.
Because I get sweat around my eyes.
It'd be fucking painful.
Also mayonnaise with my fingers.
Okay, we're at the chips.
Next.
Is misdry bad from Alicia?
What's that word?
It's the equivalent of misogyny,
but it's where misandry is where you dislike men
or like you're anti-men.
Oh yeah, you should never group people together.
That being said.
I love men.
There was extra context.
This is like, is misdry bad or is it sort of okay, like correctively?
I kind of find myself drawn towards it, but it should stop.
I think there's a difference between like asking for equal rights and misandry
and I don't enjoy the conflation between them
that happens a lot
but in answer to your question
I don't know
I see the podcast
what do you think we think
I love men
It's not ideal obviously
If we didn't have men
We'd only have half babber
When you pot it like that
I'm not saying that
Frida Agnetta wouldn't have made an amazing band
I'm just saying that Ben and Bjorn
brought a lot to the table
and we left to forget
And of course Chess the Musical
Chess the Musical. Thank God for Tim Rice as well, being in the mix there.
Benny Beyond a Tim Rice, yeah.
Fair play.
I know him so well.
Next.
Do you have any party tricks, asks, says.
I'm an incredible host if that's what you mean.
Yes, me and Anna Grant used to have one at school where she'd lie on the floor.
I'd step over her.
I'd pick her up with her head coming through my legs and her legs around my waist
and we'd play to those bums like a drum.
Very nice.
They loved it. They fucking loved it.
That's great. Yeah. That's great.
I don't know if we'd be able to, well, we still be able to do it, actually.
Anna, remind me to that with your next time to see you.
Make us a video and send it to us if you do.
Thank you, Anna Grant. Remind me, please.
And so our final question, obviously, there's a few more have gone into the Patreon extras.
If you want to go to Patreon, you can see what's been cut, and also Helen's Thorn will be there.
Don't sign up just for that because I'll feel self-conscious.
Wait on, come on.
Start up for anyway.
In fact, by the time this goes out, we might already be on a thousand Patreon.
thousand patrons just saying just saying and before we go there's a huge announcement but go on yep uh well
it's relevant to this question actually okay going back to sunday the 11th of july 2021
so like getting close to edinburgh last two years ago the first ever gigless live
gigless live no it wasn't okay oh my god and we all met up i remember the three of us went to balance
yeah and we had brunch
before we did it
and we were so nervous
oh my god yeah go on
and then you were all sitting
it was so weird
and now we have our own studio
just around the corner from Ballons
so weird
that's really cool
Nick
were any of you nervous
on the day of the show
so for those that you don't know
petrified we went and had a drink
and I'll worry
yeah we got quite drunk actually
but for those who don't know
Gig looks was an online gig
that we used to run
during COVID
on Zoom and on YouTube
so yes were you nervous
and was it weird
seeing people in real life
after seeing them on Zoom for so long
So weird.
So weird and also so affirming
And a real relief
That the whole thing hadn't been a fever dream
To be honest
Yeah they were nervous
They were nervous to see each other
But they were like there was a nervous energy
From every single one of us that had
I think they were nervous to see each other as well
Because they'd all like some people had like
Joined a WhatsApp group and like really formed a community
And also like a lot of people came alone
Like it was a very nervous excitable energy
From everywhere
People had come also to like the nervousness for me was like
People are driven hours.
Happens if we're not what they thought.
Yeah.
Yeah, it was terrifying.
It's like a first date,
but with so many people
that you might have conned for so long.
Totally, totally.
It was petrifying.
It was so exciting.
And do we walk past that guy I used to date?
Oh my God, yes!
Oh, it was a day.
A big day.
But on the way there, I was like, no!
Like, it was just, there was too much going on.
Okay, before we go to the Patreon extras,
we have an announcement.
What?
No, I know.
We have got, we have decided.
We started as an online gig, and that community was where we got our initial following from.
And also, like, we're thrilled the lockdown is over and that we don't have to do online gigs anymore.
But there are still a huge number of people for whom online gigs were amazing because of accessibility issues, because they're not from here, because sometimes...
Hey, fever.
Because sometimes going outside is difficult.
And so, we would like to know.
two online gigs.
Trusty Hoggs Presents
Outside is awful.
We've got one
on the 31st of October
now you might be thinking
Catherine but that's Halloween
yes but Halloween falls on a Tuesday
this year so you've gone to your party
is the weekend beforehand
and then on the Tuesday I'll be thinking
well I need something to do of the evening
I highly recommend coming to
Outsides is awful
and then watching your practical magic moment
that's what we're going to do
I'm going to Catherine to do it
we'll be as drunk as ever
I found a video of you at my house one of those nights
dancing around my living room and you were hammered
and the camera was all over the shop and I was like God we used to get
absolutely all right in. We got blackout for a while. Yeah so
that is October 31st and the second is a Christmas

That's their problem.
Elephants and you'll place some in your pants

Trust the trusty hearts are maybe not
It's always a good time with the trusty hearts
Trust the trusty hearts

I can literally feel the people of
trusty Hog Nation just standing up
being like, there's our new anthem.
Lighters at the...
Oh my God!
That was amazing!
