Are we starting
Hello and welcome to episode
119 of Trustee Hogs
I'm Catherine Bohort
I have not been on holiday
and I think you can tell
from my vibe
She's Helen Bauer
And she's just been in Mexico
And it's honestly obnoxious
How Rested you look

Because they're so sad
Have I missed anything?

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.
How the hell are you?
I'm so good.
I hate you already.
I'm actually furious.
I'm so bad.
I fell on my run this morning, which was like, honestly just like, I can't explain how indicative of the week I had.
The other day, I went to Pilates.
I was running.
I was late.
I was lagging it.
When I got there, I'd made it just in time, except I was then late for the class.
Guess why?
I couldn't get out of my own shoe.
The zip broke.
Wait, wait, wait.
You've got zips on your shoes?
Zip boots.
Okay. I thought you meant like zip up trainers.
No.
Like the elderly or something.
Anyway, no, zip up boots and the zip broke and honestly I was like sweating so hard.
They let me in out of sympathy, I think.
But I was so stressed.
So then I got back from my run this morning when I fell, opened the fucking glasses cabinet.
I always have to remind myself to say cabinet or cupboard because we say press.
We say press.
Anyway, smashed it right into my nose.
And I got, okay, fuck you.
because it's my second time hearing it.
Then I get here. So I know it doesn't get too serious.
Then I get here.
She falls. She opens a cupboard on her nose.
Then I get locked into my left boot.
Then I get here.
Late. She's late. She's late.
I'm late. I immediately get here and I knock into the table and spill your coffee on the
fresh table glass that I made you clean.
Oh, it's been a week. How was Mexico?
Did you listen to our episode without you?
I did.
but like that was yesterday
I listened to it yesterday
I had you find it
I okay you and Aroo are amazing
Thank you so much
Brona and you got a bit too Irish
There I said it I said it
I loved it personally
But I feel like it could have been a turn off
Some of our UK listness
Turn off for who?
I don't know
The loyalists
The orange men who are listening to this
Who are the loyalists
Oh my God please just
So but I loved it
I thought I wasn't slagged off that much
Like usually I get like a real
Like I mean you did refer to me
Bully.
Tell her what was editing?
What was editing?
Was there something edited out of it?
So I was, honestly,
because obviously, like,
it's the episode that I listened to.
I was listening for edit points.
Like, no one's breaking business.
There was one, one I heard.
Well, like, and then you referred to something
you'd already had in a conversation.
I was like, they haven't had that conversation.
And I was like,
ha ha ha ha ha ha.
That means that conversation you did have turned weird.
So then you had to pull back.
And when I say turned weird,
because I'm sure people listening,
you hear edit,
points like it's because we say a name we shouldn't say yeah or tell a secret we should or as in
as was the case of the other day I asked a question I shouldn't have asked which happened multiple
times no multiple times you were like the riddler of that episode you know that episode of
friends I know we've got so many jenzy listeners who are like what's friends the episode of friends
with the ridler in but no not with the riddle in when like they get back from honeymoon moniker
and Chandler and they were on the plane and he's like
you were your fucking questions
it was like flying with the riddler
like when I was listening to the podcast
because I was going to do my show
a maidenhead last night
I was on the Elizabeth line
and Catherine's clearly like
oh my dynamics gone
I've lost my like bouncing friend
and it's just like
do you know to the gym
which gym do you go to what's your routine
how's it going
was it like that in India India India
like an Irish you're like an Irish granny
if you're not been to Ireland
do you think her red hair is an island
have you seen anyone with red hair in India
have you seen anyone with red hair in India
Have you seen anyone with red hair in India?
I don't know.
Why are we asking these questions?
I'm not being.
That's why I was asking.
But you're right.
I lost my absolute freaking mind.
It was like traveling with a puzzle book.
No, do you know what it was?
It was a woman who's used to being interrupted way more than she was.
And so I just was like, I guess I'm filling all the space.
This is crazy.
I went crazy.
Because of the interrupting that I do, or you feel I do.
No, I'm appreciative of it.
Or you feel.
I do. Should we use our feeling words?
Our eye words, please.
You then, when you're not being interrupted,
you're just like so desperately trained.
Because I have to speak here because you will interrupt me so I can only,
I have to get, when I have a chance I have to speak quickly.
And I didn't need to do it.
I didn't need to do it. I didn't need to chill out.
I think it's a really good episode. I don't know what I'm saying this.
Brona and Root is so funny.
They're so brilliant.
Obviously you're funny. You're always funny.
Nice. Also, do I not tell you that you're beautiful ever?
What do you mean?
I felt like on the episode, like, they both told you you were beautiful and you were like,
oh, that never happens here. I feel like I don't say it.
Oh, no, it was just that a series of nice things had been said to me.
Oh, right. Well, one's enough.
Do you know what I mean? That's what it was. No, you have to say it was like, also I was
wearing pajamas and nobody mocked me. Like, I was wearing pajamas out of the house.
Yeah, I noticed that. So I was more like, I was just disconcerted. I was like, is everything okay?
Like, it felt like, if my parents were that nice to me, I'd be like, which one of he's dying.
Exactly.
There's a limit to the compliments.
So that's all it was.
It wasn't, no, you tell me plenty.
That was fine.
But then you, like, you know, slap me on the face or whatever.
I would never.
I would never.
I slap the tit.
I need the vagina.
I never slap the face.
And I want that noted.
Okay.
Oh, my God.
Also, in your absence.
A nipple flick.
Yeah.
Sure.
You do that a lot.
It's different.
It's playful.
It is playful.
Little bite.
Maybe.
And you'd always kiss it better if I ask.
But Helen, in your absence, I was like.
Open mouth.
I was like.
Yeah, he's more like suckling better.
Suckling it better.
Have you ever, oh, you must have done.
Is that like I?
I don't know why I said it like that.
Finn, I need you to finish the question because what's hanging in the air is disconcerting.
Just I was going to like not like, have you ever suckled as an adult and someone else's
nipple?
No.
No.
Okay, me neither then.
No.
No.
No, no.
God, no.
No.
No, I'm saying no.
I'm saying no, too.
I'm just asking.
What do you think lesbians get up to?
Like holding each other like a baby
and suckling on each of those nipples and then scissoring?
It's friction stuff, isn't it?
Dear God, you're exhausting.
Friction and pegging.
Why did I ask the question?
Pegging.
No, thank you.
No, do you wear dildos?
Yeah, but pegging's butt.
Frot each other.
Pegging's butt, right?
Pegging's bat.
Wait, sorry, did you just say they wear dildos?
So they're frothing with the strap-ons?
Where's the pleasure in that?
Huh?
Well, there's no pleasure in it for me, full stop.
I'm sure. I'm sure. Oh my gosh.
But wait, in your app.
Okay, I actually, I can't.
It's too late in the day.
It's too weird in the day.
I'm so sorry, Catherine.
Do you want to hear about mehiko?
We don't just sword fight with dildas if that's what you're.
No, I know that. I know that.
It's a lot of rubbing and licking.
I know you're tired at the end.
Like, I know when you've done it the night before
because you'll call me up in the morning and you'll be in the bath
and you'll look very relaxed.
Yeah, and your speech is a bit slower.
Shut up hell.
What?
What?
I called you
No, I'm happy.
I want you to be rubber-dub-dun.
I love Catherine when she's just had a lovely
La-la. Like, you're really happy.
Yeah. I do take a lot of calls in the bar.
Yeah. That's just a fact about me.
Yeah, because I feel like it relaxes your muscles
after all that, you know.
Also, I hate wasting time.
Frotting.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
But in your absence, I said to the group,
like, we're all watching traders, right?
These two fuckers are like, no.
Yeah.
A rude and brother are like, no.
I was like, excuse me what?
The whole nation is watching it.
Everyone's actually like, I'm crazy.
I have a whole gang who come over every Monday night to watch it.
Like, it's a big thing.
It's so good.
We're so in.
And please tell me you're watching it because I've had no one to talk to about it in this room.
I am.
I flew back from Mexico.
I've done two tour shows and I've watched that.
I've caught up with the whole traitor.
That's my girl.
Because I take it seriously.
She's a British woman.
I take reality TV very seriously.
Oh my God.
It's phenomenal.
What a story.
Now, we are recording this just so everyone who is watching the traitors as it comes out.
Friday of the final.
The final is tonight.
So you guys will always.
know what's happened.
If you don't,
just skip ahead.
There are people coming to my house
at 11.30pm.
Post my comedy store gig
to watch the final together
because we've watched the rest as a group.
It's like taken over my life.
I'm obsessed with it.
I can't.
When I'm a, like honestly
I wake up in the night thinking about it.
I, there is apparently on our
Patreon, the Discord
now has another,
what's the word for the,
how do the perverts work?
It's called a channel.
You have different channels in Discord.
Right.
The Discord has,
You need to get so much better down with the kids, like you are.
I don't wish to.
You're aging.
I love you do the Botox, but your mind ages you.
So much more than your skin ever good.
That's so true.
You age yourself through words.
Shut your fucking mouth.
Get your Botox and then we'll believe you're in your 20s.
Stop with the talking.
It's embarrassing.
It's actually so true.
I'm such a gratitude.
Paying thousands of pounds to look young.
I don't pay a penny for that boat.
How do you save a video?
then on the Instagram
on the YouTube's.
Oh God, it's so true.
I don't know about YouTube.
But the Discord has a channel
and they're talking about traders
so people are talking about it.
I don't know what they're saying
but if you're on the Patreon
you can see also you should just be on our Patreon
because you get extra episodes.
Just tell me now.
Do you want Harry to win?
No.
Me neither.
Despite the fact
it would be a better episode.
I agree.
And I adored him.
Until?
Oh, you know and until.
Was it until yesterday when he was like
I want to win the money.
No, it was, there was a moment when Ross was first initiated.
Yeah.
And they, he said what happened with Diane?
And Harry said the words, we, she was getting a bit brave and we had to put her in her place.
And I was like, vomit down my chest.
I'm out.
I'm out.
The room of lesbians I was in who had been rooting for him because obviously, aesthetically, he's our guy.
Literally turned, ice cold against this man.
It was like, no.
Don, donso out, finito, your misogyny is showing.
They were done in a heartbeat.
It went like, truly the whole room turned.
It was gone.
So no.
So my problem with Harry is he's technically the best player.
He's so good.
I hate that he knows it.
I really enjoyed him when he was, he was, I guess the arrogance of Paul covers.
Yes, yes.
And it just seemed like he was being really small.
but he was being understated.
And the consequence of Paul going
is this sort of weird need for him
to assert that it was all him the whole time.
Which I also love.
I love that he's getting annoyed
that the traitor leaves
and he's like, they're all saying
he's the best traitor,
but I've been here the whole time.
I know, and it's like, dude,
at the end you'll get your dues,
but I do find the arrogance
is what I hope undoes him.
My favourite thing in the traitors so far this season
is last night's episode.
So I did a show of Maidenhead
and I came back.
Wait, is this episode 11?
Yeah.
Haven't seen it.
Mother fuck, Catherine.
I need to watch it later on.
I need to watch it on my way home.
I can't have me to tell me.
Oh, but I want to banter with you about it.
You can't, you mustn't.
I'm sorry.
Can I, when are you going to watch it?
I'll watch it at lunch and we can talk about it in the next episode.
You promise?
I promise.
You're going to stay in here.
Don't talk to me.
Don't talk to me.
I'll talk to me.
I honestly find the fact that we have lunch together whilst we're doing podcasting very difficult.
Oh no.
It's a lot talking.
It's what do you want me to say?
You just heard all my news.
You know, once I didn't come to the group lunch.
Oh yeah, you pretended you had a headache.
No, I brought food with me.
I had stuff that was going off at home.
And then you guys all turned it off and I was like, oh no, I've got my own food.
No, I really get it.
Oh, my God.
It's an honor and a privilege to sit here and watch it.
I put an episode of Girls of the Playboy Mansion.
Remember that show from E?
Remember that show?
I still watch that show.
What are you talking about?
Holly is a dream.
Are you listening to...
How do you write her autobiography?
Forget the order.
Forget down the rabbit hole.
And yes, I have.
Have you listened to girls?
Oh my God.
What is it called?
Their podcast?
Yes.
Yeah, obviously.
Why are you acting like,
I genuinely cannot believe Kendra's upbark.
How do we feel about Kendra?
I know they're like, I know, it's complicated, but she was so young.
And also like, I don't think, I think the production team set up this hatred.
It's not her or them.
And I think they, I think they're even aware of it.
Holly's incredibly articulate and she's like fake drama creates real drama.
Bridget's the best though, right?
I love Bridget.
Bridget was my favorite on the show.
Holly's now my favorite.
but Bridget was my favourite on the show.
Is that because her personality was based around.
I like theming.
Partly, but also because Bridget didn't make any sense there.
Bridget looked like she'd stumbled in and was like,
I mean, I guess I need somewhere to live.
For anyone, by the way, who doesn't know what this is,
Hugh Hefner, who was the CEO of Playboy,
used to have a TV show,
but it was all about his girlfriends
called The Girls Next Door in America
and Girls Playboy Mansion in the UK.
And it was about the three of them living there.
And it's not dirty, like you think.
Yes, he's 80.
Yes, they're 25 and 19.
Yes, they get moles of their vagina sometimes.
Yes, in chocolate.
And yes, they have a curfew.
Yes, they have to be in by 8pm.
And then I'd go anywhere with that permission.
When Richard finally got her spread and she had to share her, but she was still thrilled.
Oh, my God.
But that's what it is.
Yeah.
That's what it is.
So, like, just go along with it.
Yeah.
And they've got their own podcast talking about how awful it was making it and it's really good.
But how was Mexico?
Thank you.
It was genuinely amazing.
I don't have much to say because I was like, it was so, it's, I mean, if people have been,
they'll know, so beautiful, the people are so fucking lovely, the food's insane.
Like, there's so much amazing stuff to see, and I feel like I saw a lot of incredible things.
The one thing I will say is like, before I went, I tell everyone I'm going, I try and get all
the tips from people, and I really did get so much, like, oh, go to this sonota, this
swimming hole, go to the Chittanista, like
go to this restaurant and thank you to everyone who sent them in or like messaged on
Instagram. But none of, no one told me about
raccoons. Like, no one. No one did.
Like, you know it's not. No, I do unfortunately watch all of your
Instagram stories. Even when my, even when my brain's like, you're not prepared
for this, do it later. I'm still like, oh, breath. And also because I'd
relaxed, because I'd done Mexico City, which as far as
I was concerned from everyone telling me stuff was like
going to be the part of the trip that I had to be
by wits about me. I have never felt more
safe in a city than a Mexico city.
I felt more safe there than in London. It was
just, it's amazing. I do find
can I say... Apart from the bus I got hit by a bus
that was the worst part. But apart
from being hit by a bus, it was fine.
But just one bus. Sorry, I'm
and I think the bruise is gone now.
Is the heating on? Is there a bruise there?
No, you don't have a single bruise. Okay, it was
really big. I'll show you a picture.
Sorry, what do you mean you got hit by a bus?
Yeah, the bus.
closed on me the doors of a bus and then, yeah, awful.
Hang on, sorry.
Hang on, hang on, hang on.
The doors of a boat closed on you.
No, I'm thinking of this, because Francis said that his encounter is being hit by a bus as well.
The doors.
The doors of a bus.
No, no, no, no.
Do you have any idea how awful it is getting on a Mexican bus with your six-foot-one and morbidio-B
for the backpack on your front?
Do you have any idea how hard that is?
Hang on.
To walk into a bus with all these little Mexican people looking at you, like, what the
fuck's wrong with that white one?
You need to stop screaming.
I was, I was huge, and it was pan.
and they were all staring at me like bloody fucking how where did she where did she land from and me in france are like hello and we don't know the rules of mexican buses so we're moving you understand that you just made me think that you were almost run over by a bus there was a bus and i was hit i was hit by a bus the door of the bus hit into your arm sick of this have you talked to francis already no i'm following the logic of your story the door i was technically no okay no so what happened to me then
That's like saying...
So I was hit by a bus.
I was like, oh no, how could you go in?
What happened to me?
You knocked into the door of a bus.
I didn't.
You got in the way of a bus's door.
A Mexican bus was hit by you.
You've damaged metropolitan city of Mexico.
Public transport system.
Bullshit.
You got a door closed on you.
I was like having to try and get myself down this bus.
A door closed, don't you?
Because more people trying to get on
but no one else was making space
so I was doing that British thing
of making space for people
because I was like
oh I want to be like nice
you know
and then me and Rances
both got stuck by the doors
that opened like
into people
Wait you were already on the bus
Yeah
oh my God
you can't be inside the bus
and get hit by a boss
And we had to go like seven stops
Sorry no no no
We had to go seven stop
No it was though
Wait wait you don't know what happens yet
It's like I've been run over by a car
No you've caught your finger
I don't know what happens yet.
And then people are trying to get off.
So then me and Francis get off to let people off, right?
And then, but the door opens onto you.
So I'm trying to let people off.
And then the door closes on my arm and catches my arm fat.
And I'm just there, like, attached to the pass.
And I was like, you didn't get run over.
And I was trying to pull the doors open to me and Francis get back on.
I was like, Francis, do you want to get back on?
And they're just like, I don't know.
And I was like, ah!
And all the Mexicans are just like, ha, ha, ha.
I mean it is inherently funny that it was awful so I was hit by a bus
oh your arm got caught in the door it was very bruised
it was very bruised it was very bruised I've got pictures
did you add makeup to them
no
which would be my go to which is a shame
oh my god look how fire that picture is
that is a good picture of your ass that is you know when you are wearing a
swimsuit and you go in the sea and then you come out and you sit on
like a towel and then you get like your bum print right but it looks like I've got a dick in
mine because it comes so far forward oh I didn't even look at the print I'm so gay I just looked
at your ass no look at the print it's like I've got like I've got like I've got it's like I think it's
good um no I do I have I haven't even look at the wet stain that's really bad I want to say print
that's stain.
I hope that's staying. You shouldn't
oh look here I am
poor Helen. Oh shit
that actually is a horrible bruise. I was hit by a bus
no your fucking arm
got caught in the door.
Hit by a bus and then so then we get
so we arrive in we arrive to like
the coast to like to Lom and we're like
oh we can chill now like I've recovered from my
bus injury and
check into the hotel and it's like the most
beautiful like little boutique hotel little hut
and the guys like
the right arm that you showed me.
Yes.
Okay.
Yes.
I would know.
I was hit by a bus.
And the guy's like, oh, it's too hot.
It's too hot.
Oh, bloody hell.
And he was like huge and sweating.
And he was like totally in love with me.
Right.
Could just fucking tell.
And he did not say, yeah.
And he didn't say anything about raccoons either.
And then me and Francis are just like sitting outside of our heart, like chilling out.
Had a lovely beach day.
And this raccoon comes up, like really big.
And Francis was like, oh, look a cat.
And I was like, that's not our fucking cat.
That's a raccoon.
I've seen the American TV.
TV shows. And I was like, what's he doing here? I was like frantically Googling at being like,
there's no, there's like, the raccoons that they have in Mexico don't look like him. So I was
like, what is he doing? That's mad. And then I was like, oh shit, you should have got a picture.
He's so cute for my sister. So we're eating crisps. I already hate this story.
And I didn't know they had fucking rabies. No one told me anything about raccoons or rabies.
I think it's a reasonable guess. I think it's a straight of guess. It's not. They're like the sort of
poster child
for rabies in America.
Yeah.
They're the rabies guys.
No.
Like M didn't know that either.
And also no one said anything about
no,
that's not a thing.
It is,
but it's not like common common knowledge.
I think it is.
So we throw some crisps on the ground
and me and Francis are like at this point
we're just like so cute, so cute.
And then another one comes back
and then another,
well, sort of moving them away from us
so they would go somewhere else
but also still come back.
It was a bit of a tricky place.
And then the hotel guy was like,
oh, what is it?
What is it?
Because we were like chasing around
and I get pictures of them.
And he was like, oh, be careful.
They do turn violent and they've got rabies.
We were like, okay.
Because we thought,
because he had such like a...
He had like a bit of a surly vibe
so it was hard to tell whether he was banter or not.
And then like...
And also because everyone else in the resort
was just like just sitting really still, chill.
But they were all coming to us
because we had the food.
Freezing with fear.
And then it got really dark.
And then like we were just sort of sitting.
they're talking and they were like three around us.
It's like, fuck this, we're going in, we're going in.
And then they all just gathered.
So what I'm saying is if you go to Mexico, do not feed the raccoons because they will
remember and come back.
And they have rabies.
I don't know that anybody needed that reminder.
Well, no one told me.
They're so cute and they're so little.
Can I tell you that watching your holiday made me want a holiday so bad that I've booked
a trip to Athens where I've never been.
I saw that on your Instagram story.
I'm so excited.
I can't believe I studied history and I'm 35 and I've never been to Athens.
I'm so excited.
but the British Museum, that's the problem.
No, I do know that, but I wouldn't give them my money.
The British Museum's free?
For my attendance.
It's free.
I'm not going.
I'm not going.
I'm not going.
I won't be going there.
That'll be amazing.
Yeah, we're going for Ellen's birthday and I'm really excited.
By which I mean her birthday is while I'm doing Soho, so we are going the weekend before.
But I'm bad girlfriend.
How long are you going for?
We're going for three nights, four days.
And people have sent me so many good recommendations and I'm so excited.
It'll be amazing.
I'm so excited.
But having talked about Greece and Mexico, now I'm starving.
Well, that's okay.
No, it's not.
We have a podcast.
Yeah, but you can eat after the podcast.
Do you don't take a break now and eat?
Are you gotten hungry?
No, I want you to tell me about the All-American Inclusive.
This is the final part of the holiday.
Have you ever done this?
No.
Checked into a hotel and realized you're an American All-Inclusive.
No, what is that?
Okay, so I've done a British All-Inclusive when I was 18 in Zanti.
Like, not just breakfast.
Like, all your meals.
Zant-I've got to get it.
I get that day.
That was ages ago.
Fucking genius.
Sometimes I remember stuff.
When I'm deeply shamed that I've got something wrong,
it really sticks with me.
Usually do a breakfast buffet, get the Tupperware, keep it,
like load up, love up.
And then I was like, oh my God,
we're going to do an all inclusive where you get a band where you check in
and it's like all your drinks, all your food.
P.S. Emma Black text me and said it's totally normal
to have a pack list on your phone.
Oh, fucking Emma Black.
A lot of people have actually been asking for your pack list.
Yes!
I'll put it on the Instagram.
I'll send it to you.
I hate it.
when you feel this validated
because look
how smug your face is right now
like I've done a good thing
I did good

For the British All Inclusive
What's the difference
between that and an American one.
Americans?
Yeah.
It is fucking insane.
Is it just bigger portions?
No, no, it's a buffet.
It doesn't matter about the portions.
Forget about the food.
It's just the people.
Go on.
Oh, enchanted.
Absolutely enchanted.
Everyone's got a Stanley Cup or like a beer cooler.
Me and Francis like check in and we're like,
there's a lot of Americans here.
It's only Americans.
Oh, it's like an insulated large cup that makes you drink loads of water.
It's like a fashion statement.

We go on the beach, and it's just like fucking chaos.
Like, bro, I'm going to build you the best website you've ever heard of you.
Bro, seriously.
No, man, I've already got a website, dude.

Logan
And me and France to that
Like headphones in
Pretending to listen to something
Just listening to that
Like absolutely enchanting
We're like half annoyed
Half completely in love
Then after dinner one night
Are you doing that thing where you put your sunglasses on
So they can't see you stare
Oh it just got to the point where I was like
There's nothing better than a mirrored sunglasses
So you could just watch everybody at the pool
It's so much more
They are having so much more fun than British people.
I do agree.
It's insane how much fun they're having.
There was a woman who was with a guy.
She must have been like in her mid-60s.
He was clearly in the mid-60s as well.
She was clearly like...
We love to see an age-appropriate couple.
She was fucking going for it.
She wanted to ride the fuck out of him
and she wanted him to be completely in love with her.
And he didn't even know her name.
No.
We were having a couple of cigarettes on the beach.
No, no, no, no.
Just like people trying to get with people.
Oh, oh my God.
That's so much more excited.
we're on the beach and he's like
he's clearly a smoke because she's not and she's like
go on let me have her let me have
a bit let me have a bit and he's like
no you'll feel sick and she's like
no I won't no you'll feel sick no I won't
I used to smoke and she's trying to do that whole
like early 20s cute girl thing and it's like
on your boobs around you fucking fanny
she's like no go on she has like one
dragon and she goes I feel like
headed and it's like no you don't you haven't felt lightheaded
since the 70s and then
she starts going into the ocean and he's like Michelle don't get in the ocean you'll get your clothes wet
you can't go in at this time of night and she's like it's so beautiful out here then she sits down
in the ocean she's there for only 30 seconds can she get back up yeah she's there for 30 seconds
and she's looking back at him looking back at him she clearly thinks half an hour's gone by and she
goes oh my god I'm sorry I lost myself in the ocean fuck off it's so
Beautiful.
You should get it.
Behave yourself, Michelle.
My favourite guy in the whole result?
I suppose if you're 60,
you have to act, well,
if you're like well in your 60s,
you have to act like
times moving a little bit quicker
than it is.
You don't have a half an hour to kill.
To be clear,
I will be that 60 year old.
I will be that 60 year old.
I love it.
My mom's that 70 year old.
I have a really unrelotable,
unrelatable thing to say to you,
which is that when I laugh
and I'm thrilled to be laughing,
but when I do laugh,
my abs hurt.
Because I did a blast class
yesterday. Wait, what's a blast? Stop with this.
What's the blast class? It's like a, oh no,
Wednesday it was. It's like a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a high
intensity, loads of ab stuff.
My tummy hurts every time I laugh and I don't like it.
Well, don't laugh. Oh, this one make you laugh.
Oh, Michelle died in the ocean.
Michelle died in the ocean. Michelle died that day.
Yeah, whilst being licked out by the man, though. Yay!
A man in his 60s doesn't lick anybody out. Give over.
She would make them.
That would be, it'd be like sandpaper. Oh.
Whoa. And dry men because those men don't give head, not because...
She's in the ocean. It's not going to be like sandpaper. Why is she dry?
No, no. His tongue would be dry is what I'm saying.
Oh yeah. Is it? Is it?
It better be. Sorry to put that image in your head.
It better be. Also, to be clear, I am her when I'm 60.
Oh yeah. I want to be the woman with like tits everywhere. My body's absolutely disintegrated and I'm still pretending to be like, I can't open the jar.
It's like, I can hell. I bought my own property. Like, what am I doing?
Shout out to Michelle.
There was a man.
I didn't see this interaction.
Francis did.
I only saw him later in the day.
At the bar,
like cowboy hat on,
no shirt,
just,
like, trunks.
Yeah.
He must have been like 70 or something.
Yeah.
And he was just saying to like
young girls in their bikinis,
like in their 20s.
My wife died.
Wait, was the Irish?
My wife died three months ago.
Was the Irish?
Like Canadian, like Winnipeg or something I said.
Like my wife died three months ago.
And they'd be like, oh no, oh my God, you pour, you poor dear, you poor dear.
And they do it like pour all over him.
And I'm like, that's a move.
That's so grim.
It's a move.
That's so grim.
I'm trying to honour her memory.
Like, no, you're not.
But wait, my question remains.
By coming to Cancun.
What was at the buffet?
I'm so hungry, can you tell.
It wasn't good.
That's the one thing I will say.
You've got no idea how excited I was.
to have access to a world buffet 24-7.
No good?
It was so bad.
What kind of bad?
I guess you've just eaten beautiful, authentic Mexican food for days.
Francis figured it out.
Everything tasted like fridge.
Oh, it's so specific, but I know exactly what you mean.
That's horrid.
Like all the puddings tasted just like fridge, all the different colors.
All the foods tasted like fridge.
Francis, that is such a good articulation or something.
Everything was fridge.
Oh my God, that's hell on her.
But it was like a lot of fridge food.
That's hell on it.
earth.
Like the guacamole
was nice.
Well yeah
I mean you'd
expect that much
it was yeah
the food was
fucking shocking
and they also
did a phone party
at midday at one point
no reason
just filled the pool
with bubbles
and there were like
three girls
did Michelle make it out
okay
in the rain with Stanley cups
like
and then guys in the 70s
like
I just lost my wife
I really want to Google
a Stanley cup
and also
if anybody wants to send us
a Stanley Cup
how do you not know
what a Stanley Cup
I'm Googling
no you can't ask
people for that
they're like
45 pounds or something.
Maybe Stanley can send us one.
What, I can't ask.
No.
Maybe.
Oh, I'm getting the Stanley Cup
is the trophy award for National Hockey League.
No, I want to see a Stanley Cup 40 ounces.
Is that what I need?
Yeah, it's like all the girls drink out of it on the internet.
Oh my God, I want.
I really want.
So cute.
I want one too.
Oh my God, there's a little one that goes on like a, um,
on a, what's the gay thing were you climbing?
Carabina.
Thank you.
What's the gay thing when you're climbing?
I want a, I want a carabina and a,
I'm one of these.
They're so cute.
And like if you have one,
it's like a status thing, I think.
Is it?
I think it's like a Jane Norbag, isn't it?
There's, um, Kristen Chenoweth has one,
and she's like always doing TikToks with her Stanley Cup.
Oh my God, and that's going to be the size of her.
I want to be in her Stanley Cup.
Yes, you could marry her Stanley Cup.
She could be like, oh, Stanley and he'd be like,
that'd be nice.
Let's get Stanley Cups then.
I'd love to.
Let's not go for dinner before your gig tonight.
Let's just go buy Stanley cups.
All right, I can't afford one.
We can, 45 pounds.
We can do that.
No, I can.
hand for it.
Just get Andrew
to get out of the
Trusty Honspool.
I don't think that's the thing.
We don't need the studio
anymore.
No, we do though.
We actually do.
And we're paying
edges right there.
She didn't hear it.
I'm using my hushed tones.
Do you think this is an aside?
How about we don't pay M this month?
Helen.
Oh shit.
Em edits there.
Are you ready?
Hi, M.
Our guest is here.
Are you ready to introduce this?
Yes, yes.
Okay.
Please, welcome to the trusty hog,
It's the wonderful.
It's the wonderful.
Leah Davis.
We've been out of practice, it's all right.
Hi, I'm Catherine Beauxhart and I'm going to the Soho Theatre in London for two weeks in March.
Now, wouldn't it be convenient if they were back to back and I could just tell you the dates?
Of course it would.
They're not.
The first one begins the week commencing the 4th of March and the second one, after a week's break, begins the week commencing the 18th of March.
So, early March, late March, where will I be?
Soho Theatre, my loves.
And I'd love to see you there.
The tickets I haven't sold necessarily as fast as I like them to.
But listen, there are some available.
And I'll be there doing my goddamn best with my new show.
That's the debut of my new show.
So please come.
I'd be thrilled having the audience.
The show is called Again With Feelings.
And the earlier you buy your tickets at Soho, the less expensive they are.
Thank you so much.
This is it.
It's me, Helen Bauer, from Disney Hawks.
I just want to say
I'm doing my show one last time in the UK
at the Earth in Hackney
in London
on March 2nd
it's a double bill with Olga Koch
you can see both of us, you can see one of us
come for the whole night
you've got like a little break in between us
to go get some food
it's going to be magical, it's going to be sexy
and I'd love to see you there
thank you
Welcome to Leah
because it's Leah's part of the podcast now
Welcome to the something
And we're going to have a talk
I think some people think white women can
Hello
Hi
Welcome
Thank you so much better off for that song
I feel on it
Don't suck up to her
Oh, no, that was bad.
No, I needed you to say that.
I was trying to find the beat.
I was trying to click along.
And so was she.
And so was she.
Also, you thought I just called you a slag, so I'm really glad you liked it,
because otherwise it could be so awkward.
We're back, we're back, we're back.
Wait, before you get into this story, I need, I'm a living for your blue eyeliner.
If you're watching on YouTube, feel free to have a real good look.
It's heaven.
Oh, my God, it's good.
Thank you.
Just Kiko.
Really?
Oh, they're good.
Oh, they're good.
That's a straight hand.
For anyone in their 30s from Britain, it's good.
it's giving Miss Sporty
electric blue mascara
Oh my God it is
It's so good
I was thinking it was like a Ms magazine free gift
Because I definitely had a blue
They could never
They could never
It's so good
Do you remember
Like in the early noughties
Where all makeup was like
triple different things
Like it wouldn't just be a mascara
It's a mascara
It's a hair wand
And it's a body glitter
And it's fell the peach
And you can put it on your body
And in your eye
But do not consume this
Very important.
Very important.
And we all did.
Like, how many lips all, like, lip bombs did you get through?
Why does it smell of food if you're not meant to eat it?
I was watching, because now we're obviously older and wiser.
I was watching a vlogger this morning.
She's packing for her half-wild cruise, Brogan Tate.
Enjoy yourself, my babe.
And half-world crew, she's getting married on ship,
and the rest of it's a honeymoon.
Yeah, she's flown to New Zealand and her and her and her fiancé are working their way back to the UK.
So they haven't done a wedding with their whole family.
They're just like, fuck it.
putting all the money into a half world cruise
and they're like stopping off at loads of places
along the way. I'm like, you're amazing.
I respect getting married away from your family. I don't
like it's a big gamble to assume
the cruise will be good. No, they're
cruisers. They're cruisers.
Oh, they're cruisers. As in
yeah. Not in the gay man
way, which I now know about Andrew.
Good few boys. I enjoy that education in the episode.
That was great. That was great.
Oh my God, wait. We have a straight woman on the podcast, do we?
Question mark? You do.
You do. This is an admin area.
Oh, no one told me.
Finally, I feel like it's a safe space.
We should not be according heterosexual artisines for a helen, come on.
No, we shouldn't. It's embarrassing.
It is.
But can I tell you, well, Brogan tape packed?
Because you know how much...
Are you picking at your eye while you ask?
Yeah, it's got like an eye boge. Is it gone?
Yeah, you're okay.
Yeah. I took loads of weed gummies last night, so I slept too well.
Loads of them.
Yeah.
Risky.
Well, Jordan was having some, so then I wanted to have more to show that I'm like, I also get
high. But I don't really, so I got too high.
had to go to bed.
How many did you have?
After having three quarters of a large stuffed crust pizza hut pizza about, yeah, ordered it at midnight.
So, yeah.
It's been a bit of a tough, like, digestively.
It's been a bit of a rough 10 hours.
But, yeah, I'm all right.
Anyway, Brogan was packing.
They've got like Claren's lip oils and there's one that tastes like raspberries.
I've seen these.
They look ridiculous.
I would never.
It's not in my apartment.
Should we do it?
No, should we do it?
For Clarence that they're stooping to raspberry lip oil,
I always thought of them as like a mom's grown-up brand.
I'm sad for them.
That makes me sad.
It's a bit lip smacker, isn't it?
I said what I said.
I said what I said.
Where did you get married?
I got married like near Somerset kind of way.
I'm from near where Andrew's from.
I'm from Wiltshire.
And you were both in the British comedian final British comedian of the year.
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Whoa.
But yeah, no, we're married like.
wearing cardigans.
Were you separated at birth?
I think so.
That would be amazing.
What?
That was crazy.
They finished each other's sentences.
That was wild.
Oh my God.
This is insane.
Favorite sitcom, one, two, three.
Arrested element.
Arrested.
No.
Get out of here.
It should never be elephant.
No, you've been busted.
You've also arrested development.
We'll come back to that.
Yeah, we will.
That's one we've been in that.
What's your actual favorite?
Actual favorite sitcom?
Probably this country.
Is this country a sitcom or is it a comic?
I don't know, but I love it.
I think it's a sitcom.
I watch it.
It's situational.
Yeah.
And it's comical.
I do that with so many sitcoms.
I just love the feeling of dible.
Yes.
Oh, nice.
It's just comforting.
Okay, that would take me back to a nice childhood space, you know.
I would love that.
Right.
Well, not a nice childhood space.
Like, a space when your family weren't there at the TV.
Yeah, true, too.
One of the two.
One of the two, yeah.
Which snacks?
Oh my God, I used to go home.
and microwave rocky bars.
You know, rocky bars?
I used to like stick two on a plate.
What's a rocky bag?
Sorry, what is the rocky bar?
The best chocolate.
Yeah, like really thick chocolate on the outside
and then kind of like biscuity in the middle.
They would be like a finger size
and I would just unwrap them, put them on a plate,
stick two in the microwave.
Like that.
Like a clubbar?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, and we're taking them in the microwave and then.
Yeah, and then just go to town.
What degree of melting are we going to?
Just like, oh, you know.
Not wet, but like, malleable.
Right, okay.
Can you still pick it up?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay.
The biscuit in the middle?
It's just...
Staying firm?
Yeah, it is.
Staying firm.
Exactly.
Exactly.
And it was so good.
That would be the dream
and no one would be home.
Oh, my God.
And when you say going to town,
are we getting rid of all the chocolate first
and eating the biscuit last?
No, no.
Are you like face first?
Yeah, face first.
Yeah, face first, thing looking good after.
Yeah.
Whoa.
Yeah, baby.
I'm really happy for you.
I don't know why I've got really emotional with that.
That is a beautiful family memory.
No, but I'm going home, being by yourself
and just getting to like...
Also, because, like, teenage girls,
it's tough at school to meet exactly what you want.
Exactly.
So true.
Then to go home and just be like...
Did you have to take off your charm bracelet
because it was too loud?
It's so jingly and I, you know, audio...
First of all, what a pro as a broadcaster.
Secondly, dear God, straight women are basic.
What are these charms?
Do you have a lucky...
What is this?
Is this a clover or a shamrock?
It's a watch.
It's a watch. It's a watch with charms.
I got it on eBay.
Of course you did.
I got it on eBay.
And I just thought, this really, she really, you know, she speaks to me.
It's annoyingly chic.
It's annoyingly chic, but I don't, but I, this woman speaks to you, your little charm.
Okay.
I have two charm bracelets.
Of course you do you.
Yeah.
One that I got for my christening from my granny.
Huh?
But it's so small.
It'll never fit me.
And it's also got like her charms on it.
So it's like what she thought I could become.
So it's got like the holy.
Bible, a ballerina,
great effects.
Like, and it's just sort of like, did you meet me before you bought it?
Like, even baby hell I wasn't going to become a ballerina.
That's mental.
Like, all these really like soft, beautiful girly things.
And then when I was 18, we like, me and my like friends at school, we'd always like
put in people's 18th birthday and something special.
They got me a Lynx of London.
Wow, 18.
We were a big group.
There was like 15 of us.
That's so wonderful.
I really thought you were going to say Pandora.
Yeah.
Same.
Same, same, same.
I don't know if Pandora was, like, basic enough then.
I think it was too luxury at that point.
Now it would be Pandora.
Okay.
And I've got a little charms in it.
But it's like, lucky knickers.
Like, a martini glass.
Nice.
And it's like to both of them are just so, don't work for me as an adult.
Hey, fair knickers for when you get locked out of your hotel room.
That's a good callback.
You're welcome.
Really nice.
Thank you.
Bro. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. How are you? How's your week's been? Yeah, my week's been okay. I've just been trying to like keep my lungs in. I just keep on coughing and I do feel like they're really close to coming out. But apart from that, I've been, I've been okay.
Listen, I have also had a like epic three week cough, which is so boring and annoying because it's not even COVID, so you're not even getting sympathy.
Exactly. All just recovering more slowly, I think. I went to the doctor and she was just like, no. She was like, it's a virus. You'll be fine.
And she didn't give me anything.
She gave me no drugs.
She just said, and she was like, I was like, what about paracetamil?
She was like, that really is only for pain relief.
Like, if you have to, for pain, but it's going to do nothing for the virus.
And she just really humbled me.
Wow.
Is it really intense?
Is it one of those ones you coughed too much in the morning?
You wet yourself a bit.
Yes.
Yeah, exactly that.
I had that one before.
But I don't think it doesn't count as wetting yourself if you're in your own house.
But like, yeah.
Is that the boundary?
I think so.
Okay.
If I make it through the door and then I piss myself, I'm like, it doesn't matter because I'm not at home.
Yeah.
I'm not drunk
I'm homeworked
She's never really home dry
There's always something going on
No but you know when you're like
Dying for the toilet on a night bus
And then as soon as you get through your door
Your body starts going
I wish I wasn't about to say these words
But you've said this before
On the podcast
Yes I know
But like
She's trying to justify it as normal
You know when you're wetting yourself
Outside your house
Yeah you know when you're obviously
You've begun urinating
You know when you pee at the door
It is normal.
Did you piss yourself a bit when you were juke off?
No.
Come on.
Show me your human side.
I'm the inverse though.
I've had to go to the doctor because I have like an overly clenched.
I have an uptight pelvis.
I can't relax enough to let we it.
Yeah.
So, you know, we've all got stuff going on.
Yeah.
But every moment she's dry on top and work, we don't balance each other out.
Mine's arid to them.
Do you not remember the time Kaffin had to go to the dog?
because she was holding in too many poohs.
Yes, I do.
I had just started dating somebody new and her...
Hang on, excuse me.
I was speaking to Leah now.
Sorry, Leah.
I was dating someone new
and I find it very stressful
that they might be able to hear me go to the toilet
and the toilet was literally right above where
they literally went like pillow,
wool, bathroom.
I was like, I can't, obviously I can't go to the toilet here
and then it became a whole thing
and then I ended up in A&E.
A and E.
Well, it was like six weeks of not, yeah.
I got hit by bus.
What?
What is happening?
Sorry, she's a real attention speaker.
I was talking for too long to you and you seem to be engaged.
That's pathetic.
Grow off.
I don't know why.
Six weeks is too long.
But you know that now.
Yeah, I do.
Yeah, no, the doctors were very clear.
Do you feel more comfortable now?
Like, pooing around her.
I wouldn't, I wouldn't be like, babe, come on.
But like, but we.
If it was like a special one.
No, no, no.
Like an event, you know?
Jesus, no.
You know you wait something out of date,
let's see what happens.
No, I'm joking.
Obviously, I'm joking.
Obviously, we're just having banter.
Not joking.
You and Samil would do that, though.
I've never watched him shit himself.
I'd like you to stop talking about this, please.
Not on purpose.
That is, yeah.
What is your husband?
How long have you been married?
Two years.
Two years.
Have you ever peed in front of each other?
Pied or poo.
Peed.
Peed?
Yeah.
Who?
Well done.
No.
No, no, no.
No.
He's a big farta though.
And I really can't bear it.
I'm not, I'm not a farty girl.
I'm so sorry.
I'm not a farty girl for years.
Was?
I was not.
Until.
I just, it's like I don't choose for it to happen.
But when it does, it's not the end of the world.
I landed in Mexico.
I got off the flight.
It was long haul.
And I sneezed and I fart at the same time.
And now you're free.
And they said, welcome to Mexico, please go home.
I have to say it.
But it happens, it happens.
And it's better to like not live with the fear of it happening.
I'll say this.
I, out of character for me, I actually find farts very funny.
Okay.
Like, hilarious.
Genually very funny.
But that is easier for me to say because my partner is female.
So how bad's it going to be?
But I don't know.
If I lived with a man, I think I'd be.
like,
is it really bad.
They're just so loud and long.
And does he do it on her?
I think he's got problems.
No, I don't think he does.
I did, like, they're like, like,
dick and dom farce.
Do I mean?
Like comedy farce.
Oh, wow.
Bizarre.
Sorry.
Dick and Don's de bungal.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
I feel like we should bounce it out and be like
something good about your husband
because that can't be the only thing he heard on this.
And I'm sure he's listening, no doubt.
But like, he can't be like,
oh, it's good to be something.
No, he's really kind.
Oh, God.
gross. You made it weird. Why do you make it weird? I just was like, are they going to be like big
dick or something? Oh yeah, yeah. Huge. Oh, okay. It has to be plausible. Do you know what I mean?
I don't know what straight girls talk about. Does that it? Men are kind of people. Maybe I need to
find a gassy guy. Yeah, gassy guy. Yeah. I don't think you want that. Well, I don't think
that I've got a bump in my nose. I don't think I'll get everything. I'd get the top layer of
I was using you now got a compromise. Yeah, that would be a compromise. No, never compromise.
Come on.
No, but I've been doing that
and I have never had a boyfriend
and that's 32 years
of not compromising.
It's annoying.
How did you meet your husband?
Oh, yeah.
Is that an annoying question?
No, no, no, it's not annoying.
She's not very, it's not, it's very,
no, we met, we had a, like,
I was in sick form and he was in college
and we had a Saturday job at Iceland.
Fuck off.
Stop.
Usually I say, I met him in Iceland and people are like,
oh, Recovic and I'm like, yeah.
Oh my God.
Sure, sure.
But no, I'm in the supermarket.
You met when you were teenagers working in Iceland?
Yeah.
Was it your first boyfriend?
Yeah.
You married your first boyfriend?
Yeah.
We're doomed.
We're doomed.
We're doomed.
No, it's not beautiful.
That's fucked up.
I know.
I know.
And I've been saying that this whole time.
Trust me.
That's fucked up.
That's so beautiful.
No, that's wrong.
But this is the two parts of my brain.
Have you at least taken a break?
And like gone and, you know, have you had a summer?
Have you had a gap?
No, that's coming this summer.
That was the old gift to each other.
We were like, let's go explore.
Good, good, good.
That's so magical.
A Saturday job.
I can imagine how fucking flirty that was.
No, because I remember my Saturday jobs.
We were so flirty.
Like, if you fancied someone, it was like, looking at the rotor,
am I going to be on with them?
Exactly, exactly.
The effort you put in to like doing, I was a receptionist,
but I was like, full hair and makeup.
Ah, heels.
I can't believe you met a teenager and you still like him.
I know. Bizarre.
That's wild.
I think it's useful that like for the first three years of our relationship,
like after we left, like, after we left Iceland.
Oh, so you don't work there now.
I do, I wish I could.
Great job, great job.
Soon you'll be the face-up for this story.
Really?
Yeah, really good play.
Also, there was when we did work there, they had an Iceland magazine.
And there was a couple who met in Iceland who,
married while we were there
and went around the staff room because they got
all of their food from Iceland for the wedding
for free and I realised that we
fumbled it and we didn't do that for our wedding
and we should have, we really should have
some ghettos. That would have been
if you explained to me that it was a long game to get
the catering for free I'd actually be like fine
I get it. You would respect it more. But to think that you had that
information that didn't do it and still married the guy from Iceland
is wild to me. Also because Iceland's food range is like
it's different from the other supermarkets.
Everyone's like, all supermarkets are all the same.
Iceland is the only place that I've seen
that they do do the Heinz Beans cheesy pizza.
Exactly.
So the only ones that are like, we'll stock it, we'll fucking do it.
Bring it on.
Sorry, what is...
Bring it on.
Oh, I mean, if you like to explain it, it's pretty simple.
Yeah, no, it's just that.
It's a pizza base and the tomato sauce is Heinz beans
in tomato sauce, like a pan of hines beans,
and then cheese on top, and then you bake it like a frozen pizza.
That's disgusting.
Yeah, no, absolutely.
There's a lot of hybrid products.
Is he eating these foods because it explains the farting?
He's so loyal to it.
No, I hope.
No, no, I don't think so.
If he's having that for breakfast luncheon tea,
well he's going to have a gastric issue.
Like, that's horrific.
No, no, no, I promise you, he's not.
He's not, he's not.
Okay, the lady protests a little too much, that's fine.
But what I was going to say,
I feel like we were successful, our successful,
we're not, because that for the first four years
that we got together, he was working away.
Like, he was offshore, like on a boat.
So we didn't really see each other
for quite a while.
And I feel like that's what's
kept us going for the first four years.
Okay, that is more intrigue.
No, like engineering.
Oh.
Yeah.
Cruise.
Like surveying.
Imagine.
Was he entertainment or
a horse or student?
I like your only options were
like a stage magician or
the army.
Yeah.
Stage magician or killing.
Exactly.
That's so funny.
That's so funny.
Okay.
Well, we didn't bring you here
to talk about your
husband exclusively.
It's just that I know
that it's what straight women
like to talk about.
There's loads of other things
I like to talk about.
Sorry, I know.
What star is I knew you?
I am a Gemini.
Are you?
Oh.
Is that bad?
I like them.
I think it's like the whole
like all their two face.
It just means you're able to adapt
people in different conversations.
Exactly.
I think it's a positive.
Like you're very adaptable
but means that you might
always feel safe being your true self
because you want everyone else
to feel comfortable.
But it's not two face.
It's just, yeah.
And ease with it.
Oh yeah.
Sorry,
she'll just too.
You're welcome.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, God.
Can we talk about Star Sames properly now?
No, I don't have the time.
Or the, we've already covered charm braces.
It's one of the other, I'm afraid.
Unless you've a mood ring you've brought with you.
Oh, I've got a mood ring.
I've got it brought it in by you know that you were straight.
Damn it.
We could have seen our mood.
Exactly.
And we'd finally know.
Yeah.
Finally.
But I have a question.
So, because you, when did you start comedy?
Two years ago, January.
So quite.
recent. That's very exciting. Are you enjoying it? Yeah, I am. Okay, the sweet innocence of
use. No, it's so nice. I still enjoy it. I think we do. We genuinely do. We wouldn't be doing it
still if we didn't. But you also, Helen informs me, are a book nerd. Yeah. This is very
exciting. Please explain. I wouldn't say nerd. Book nerd. Book nerd. I said like book cratten.
Oh, yeah. And that's an important distinction. Book goblin. Read freak. Read freak. Yeah.
I have a question about. A whore for the written word.
The reason is I haven't found anybody else
who's just finished the book
that I've just finished
and I was wondering if you've read
The Beasting.
No, I haven't.
I thought you were going to talk about burnt sugar
because you said about it
in another episode and I was like,
I love that.
Oh, did you love it?
I'm so glad you did.
Yeah, it's so, so good.
That was my second book of the year,
but I've just finished The Beasting.
Of this year?
Yeah.
Slay Catherine.
Thank you.
Nice.
And it is,
burnt sugar cannot recommend enough.
I also recommend Beasting,
but it is one of those books
because I pride itself.
Like the thing that everyone loves about it
is that it doesn't leave,
it doesn't have a resolution.
But I didn't know that.
I hadn't read any of the stuff in advance.
So I was just like reading, reading, reading.
And then it was just like,
huh?
Literally like, no.
What?
Oh God, I would need to read this.
I have like 50 questions.
What the hell are you talking about?
I was, I, and the impact of it is,
I have not stopped thinking about it
since I finished it because I'm like
playing at every scenario it could have been.
What's the like the general gist?
Yeah, what's the vibe?
The general gist is you get a story from the perspective of all four members of a family.
Nice.
Who have historical trauma that plays out in different ways.
Love that.
And the shift of perspective is actually quite monumental every character you go through.
Like it explains a behavior that seems so unconsciousable or inexplicable when it comes from the other perspective.
In such a way that you're like, they have so many secrets from one another.
And it is sort of relentlessly like, what?
Like, I hated a character.
And then they were queer, so I was obviously like,
oh my acting.
It's kind of cute if you're evil and gay.
But it's also set in Ireland and set,
specifically a lot of it's set in the historical society of Trinity,
which is like where I did all my debating at uni.
And it mocks and savages that way of thinking in such a incredible way that I really enjoyed.
But it's a great book, great read.
Beasting. Noted.
I love, I realize that my style of book is trauma.
Like, do you read happy books or like devastating books?
Oh, I can't do devastating.
I've heard there's one that's going on.
I can't, I can't.
I go full devastating in the happier settings.
Have you heard of a little life?
No.
Oh, apparently it's just like ridiculous.
First of all, that's so funny because that has been like the trauma book for about 10 years now.
Oh, 10 years.
It's honestly, no, no, as in like it's the one that people either have read or haven't read.
It is trauma porn.
But it wasn't a holiday for me
See, I want that
You're eyes lighting up
That's not right
I loved it
But my partner at the time was like
I feel like I'm on holiday
With a very recent widow
Give me the vibe
Give me the vibe
It is written by a woman
About four men
Who are all friends
And as they grow up
You get their history
And their trauma and their stories
But it is specifically
There's a very heavy storyline
About abuse
Trigger warning
Yes!
but it's so harrowing
and there's quite a few unexpected turns
but I probably cried from like page 200
to the end. It's a big book
and yeah. Can I borrow one?
Oh yeah I'm sure I have it somewhere if it's not sodden.
I'm sure you'll be able to find it as like
it's a hefty guy. It's a hefty book.
Oh boy. Yeah. I'm excited.
Oh God. I read
a book on holiday called like
10 minutes 38 seconds
and it was given to me by a listener.
at like my gig
and I was like
and the back it's like
it starts with the sex worker
being found in a bin
and I was like
this will be perfect for the beach
what perfect
winter read
and I can read it when it's cold London
and really depressing
and then have it on the beach
this is mad fun
and it was like
she gets buried in like
this horrible grave
and like just this isn't a spoiler
she's dead at the beginning of the book
it starts with her
as a corpse and apparently the brain can keep going for 10 minutes longer.
Why isn't she getting out of the bit?
No, no, fully dead.
Fully dead.
Is it a high up in?
Does she have no agility?
And it's about her family and how she's banished from like a Turkish family.
It's just sort of like, it's so harrowing.
And I was like, ha ha ha ha.
Oh, boy.
That's fucked up.
Yeah, that is fucked up.
Yeah, be worried.
Like, I lean into it and then I started reading another book.
That is good, but I got a bit disappointed because it's all about this sister who's missing.
And I was like, oh my God, I wonder.
when we're going to find it more about her sister, find her more about her sister.
Turns out the sister was a chimpanzee.
What?
Yeah.
I was like really emotionally involved with 100 pages being like, this poor girl, she's only five,
her sister's gone, she's got no idea where she is, no one's telling her.
And I was like, I think her sister's dead, I think her sister's dead.
No, sister was a chimpanzee.
But wait, is the narrows are a chimpanzee?
I don't think it's a farm.
No, it's the little sister talking about her sister's gone missing and like no one in her
family is telling her about it.
And then she goes, oh, I should clarify something.
That's insane.
Fern is a chimpanzee.
Furn?
Worst name ever for chimpanzee.
Yeah, I completely agree.
A terrible name for chimpanzee.
They swing between ferns.
No, they don't.
They know.
They're wrong from the ground up.
What are you talking about?
Huh?
They're not a vine.
Oh yeah.
What's a fern tree?
It's a plant.
It's like a potted plant.
It has like tiny leaves all the way up the leaf.
Yeah.
What's a fern?
Fur tree then.
It's different, isn't it?
A fir tree is a different thing, yeah.
But you also wouldn't swing from that eye.
That's like Christmas tree.
No, yeah, you wouldn't, would you?
No.
Neither work, really.
It burns like an indoor plant.
Yeah.
So not for the chimpanzee then.
I and I assume every single other person in the world called there.
I'd like to apologise to Leah.
It's a bad thing.
Did you see this new gorilla born though at London Zoo?
No?
No one else is following this account.
I'm going to go to London Zoo tomorrow to see the new baby gorilla.
Is the baby gorilla?
Yeah, the new baby gorilla got born at London Zoo.
I'm going tomorrow.
What's it called?
I don't know yet.
You're going with your sister?
No.
But she does know that I'm going without her,
which caused a bit of a breakdown this morning.
Oh, nearly all right.
We've gone for Sir Neil Patel's 43rd birthday with a couple of the boys.
We've all got two for one tickets.
Me, Patel, Jordan Bruxie,
Neil O'Rourke, Nathan Darcy Roberts.
Why are we doing first name, surname for everyone?
A.K.A. the crew.
Yeah, we're going to go out of Zee.
Oh, wait a minute, please.
Why are you going on that, like, a stensile?
possibly boys' trip.
Do they need it to even the numbers out?
Yes, I need you to figure that one.
Oh no, oh no, oh no.
So what else have you been reading?
Oh, that gorilla.
I mean, anything else good this year?
Ferns, Fern Brady.
I call my Fern Fern, Fern Brady.
Read her book very good.
Oh, was it?
Oh my God, it's so good.
It's actually astonishingly good.
It's so funny.
Oh, how annoying that you can be that clever and that funny.
as well. Her book is profoundly
smart and
so well observed and fucking hilarious.
It's also devastating. It's great.
It's really fucking good. And it's honest in a way that
is
just brave and
insightful and fucking useful for the world.
It's great. Last year
female colleagues like
Lou Sanders and Fernbrady's books
coming out was just like fucking amazing.
I love that.
I truly I think about it all the time. It's so good.
Yeah.
Okay, on my list as well.
Can I ask you a question?
Go on.
This is what I think is most interesting with book readers.
What sort of style of reader were you as a teenager?
Can I guess?
Yeah, go on, guess.
Meg Cabot Princess Diaries.
Damn it!
Quite, not quite.
But similar vein.
Oh, you know the breadwinner and the kite runner and stuff like that.
No, oh my God, no, no, no, no.
I was not that.
No, I wasn't that emotionally available or intelligent.
But I was more like, oh, the ones that Grace Dent did,
Diary, oh my god
It was like
Of a girl
Of like a wimpy teenager
No
No
I know
Secret Diary of the Cool
David Williams
No it was like
Diary
I think it was called Diary of Chav
Which is quite problematic now
No I say it
Is it Grace Dent
Is it
Yeah
Dari of Chav
Trainers versus Tiaras
Too Cool for School
Oh God
Too cool for school
You want to put you're too cool for school
Trainers versus Tiarras
Is that how you find it
you're gay or strays.
That's hell.
That's it.
Yikes.
And Angus Thongs and Perfect Snoggins.
Oh yeah.
We all get that.
We all of those.
It was like Robbie, the sex god.
He was everything to me.
Oh my God.
And to all of us,
especially when cast as that beautiful,
beautiful man who then married that very older director, right?
Much older, yeah, yeah.
That was very exciting.
The guy you played Robbie the sex god, Aaron.
Aaron.
Arringtona Johnson
then married
a much older woman
Sam Taylor Wood
M knows this shit
like inside out
I saw them in Soho recently
actually
very hot couple
very hot couple
Okay I mean good for them
But yeah it was all very exciting
She's like the same age as her daughter
I think
Like it was so hot at the time
It remains hot and cool
Because it's feminist when women do it
Exactly
Perversed when men do
Noted
Noted I used to watch that film
Every night for a while
In like year 10
And year 11 every night for better
I used to watch it
Doesn't Angus songs
And it's the one DVD you have
But wait
Doesn't Angus songs
Doesn't the girl who played the lead
Doesn't she, isn't she now mother to
Rupert Grins?
Yes
Oh my God
That's so right
You're right
Uh huh
Aha teenage overlap
Yeah
She had a baby with Ron Weasley
Yeah
And then Juno from Spy Kids
Junie
Yeah
He's had babies with Megan Trayna
Yeah
Inside
Huh?
Isn't that crazy
Wilde
Whoa
They got very cute
child together.
Oh, they've got the two cutest kids.
One was called Riley.
I know too.
How do you know?
She's big on TikTok.
She's big on TikTok.
She's really big on TikTok.
She's really for me.
But yeah, she is big on TikTok.
I don't know why I really like her song.
Apart from one.
Megan Train.
Which is about how much she loves her mom.
And it's just like, you might have a mom.
She might be the bomb, but ain't nobody.
Got a mom like mine.
Oh.
Horrible.
Is this the one that Chris Jenner's in this video?
Yeah, yeah.
Why do I know they?
Because that was an episode of the Kardashian.
But inside the song, Mum,
she does like a phone call with her actual mom
calling her, I just miss you so much
and I love you.
And her mom's like, I love you to the moon and back.
No, fuck all.
And I'm like, fuck that noise.
She's, yeah.
Helen's relationship with their mom's real good.
So, hey, here's our actual question though
because we're going to have, what we do on the show,
I'm sure you know, is we have listener problems in.
Yes.
But before we get to that,
what kind of advice giver do you think you are?
I am the kind of advice giver that will be scared by your Gemini
whatever makes the best happy
oh really yeah I'll just be like whatever you think is right for you please
and I'm very and I just I just I don't know I'm not I'm not very good I really really
hate confrontation like confrontation is not my bad but both of those things are true of me
weirdly I almost always say what I think they want to hear and I'm petrified of conflict
like I can't be confronted.
I'm horrible at conflict.
I'm definitely felt confronted by Catherine.
No, you have not.
Many times.
We have never had conflict.
Literally about an hour ago,
I told you I got hit by a bus
and he screamed at me.
Because the bus store is caught off her arm
and she thinks that means
she got hit by a bus, did she?
No.
Actually what that was.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So you were right to ignore it.
You're going to Mexico March, right?
Careful of the buses.
Yeah, specifically the door.
And the raccoons.
And they're almost like the racoons have rabies.
Do not feed them crisps.
Probably wouldn't have.
Yeah.
You say that,
but you haven't seen them yet.
That's very cute.
Right.
Okay.
I don't think they are.
I don't think they are.
So, okay.
So you say what you,
but okay.
Do you have any of siblings?
Yeah, I've got an older brother.
He's seven years older than me.
Yeah.
Okay, so you're not even being come to for advice.
No, no, no, no.
Interesting.
Who do you go to for advice?
I do have a close group of friends.
There's like seven of us
and we just don't argue either.
I'm some girls?
No, but school girls.
Yeah.
You're exactly who I think you were.
No, not really.
Ever?
No.
They've never like, you've never once been like,
just fuck off.
Not even as two ages?
In my head?
Honestly, not really.
I'll be like, this is the only way you make friends that you.
Mask it, mask it, mask it.
No.
No, that's awful.
No.
My best friend from school has sent me out before.
Like, been like, no, you go to the garden now.
I can't even look at you.
Who's that?
Emma Black.
Yeah.
Oh yeah.
In lockdown at one point
she just went,
huh,
you're always here!
I hope that was your reaction as well.
Just like, yeah.
I was like,
yeah,
you know what,
I'll fucking give that to you
and she was having a rough day
because my friend,
like,
came over and like
threw some donuts up for me
but didn't buy her one
and she was like,
took it as an attack.
That's insane to be that upset about that.
Yeah, Lynn,
remember that time
the cookie got sent to Seneal
and you argued it was.
It was 50% mine.
and you know it was.
I'm just saying that you might understand where Emma's coming from.
Yeah, and she's since yelled at Eddie Hare about three times about it,
so I reckon she's got her.
Okay, good.
Well, it sounds like he was a real dick about it.
Okay, so then let's see you, people pleasing.
Okay, yeah, go for it.
Go for it.
I'm going to try and be really honest.
I would be so proud of you if you could be.
Okay.
This is going to go slow cutting.
We can't answer first.
We have slightly so that we can actually hear her opinion,
and she's not just nodding and agreeing with us.
Shit.
Yeah.
That's my plan foiled.
Okay.
So this is from Jay.
Hi, Jay.
Hey, yeah.
So basically, I met this woman a few months back and instantly liked her and kind of got the feeling she liked me back.
I'm a queer sister woman myself, by the way.
So one night, a bunch of us ended up at hers.
She was making eyes at me, et cetera.
So I ended up staying at hers that night and we made out.
Yes, Jay.
But, well, made out, et cetera.
So put what you want in that, et cetera.
Fingering.
So two straight women are like, we don't.
No.
You went fingering and lead us on her breath, went,
Hello.
I bet they did say hello, yes.
Et cetera.
Et cetera.
Hello, et cetera.
Next.
But the next morning, she didn't remember anything.
Always a great start.
So later that week, she texts to say she just wants to be friends and I'm a bit hurt, but okay.
Then she starts messaging me loads, like all day with photos and then a couple of other times.
We end up getting drunk, making out a bit.
and she breaks it off
saying all the reasons
we can't be together
and then again
can't remember anything
the next morning
during this time
I start developing
strong feelings of her
because when we're not shit-faced
we get on really well
and she's really sweet
for a while
even though I know it's not great
what's going on
I just don't say anything
about how hard I find it
but eventually one day I break
I ask her what's going on with us
she says she doesn't know
she's sorry she gets so drunk
she needs time to think about it
and that we shouldn't text for a week
she then says
after the week that she just wants to be friends.
I say, okay, but let's not get that drunk
and make out because that's always confusing
for me. Yeah. And she agrees.
Now, though, we have...
Sorry, Andrew, when was this email sent?
Recently.
Mm-hmm. Okay, go on. I just want to check where we are timeline was.
But go on. Okay, so now, though.
Now...
That recently was so awkward.
Yeah, that was like...
Recently. Is it within 223?
Anyway, so now...
We have got to get better at answering these.
Go on, Jay's probably moved countries by now.
This woman's been sat in a well.
Anyway, we haven't got drunk for a while,
but she's still messaging me all the time.
Oh!
Like a good morning message every day.
She's dragging you along.
Sorry, I know.
I don't message any of my friends like that.
And whenever I go on a date with someone else,
she keeps bringing up all the time
saying how I must be in love with them.
And I don't know.
I guess I'm okay with being friends
because she's a lovely person,
but sometimes I feel like I'm getting mixed messages
and that kind of messes with my mind
because I do really like her.
Am I just making this up in my head?
Do people really text their friends
just all day, every day?
She is the one initiating these messages.
I'm not exactly sure what to do about it.
Help me out, trusty hogs, from Jay.
Leah, you have to go first,
and I know there were a lot of signaling cues from Helen.
We can cut out.
That's maybe sick to myself, sorry.
Um, I, I'm so, Jay, I'm so sorry.
That sounds horrible.
And I think you're being actually mugged off here.
And I don't think that this person is right for you at all.
I don't think that is she, does, as a person definitely also quit?
Like, or was that an element of it?
Like, they're getting drunk to do it.
One second.
I've just moved it to a different problem.
Because that's really, I just, it seems really disrespectful.
And especially if you've been honest about your feelings, that's horrible.
Jay, you deserve better.
You need to...
She...
No, she's...
No, not explicitly
so she is queer.
Yeah, okay, cool.
Well, that's insane.
That's so horrible
and I'm so sorry, Dave, that's happening to you
and I think you need to cut it off.
That's insane, right?
Helen.
Bang on!
Right!
Bang on!
This is fucking bullshit.
That's horrible.
I hate the dragging along thing
because when you start falling someone
and you're in love with them
and then they sort of like,
they'll make out with you
or you'll spend the night together,
but like they'll just constantly be like but I can't do a relationship like it's just
friends but they're just dragging you along so they're getting everything they need they've got
someone who loves them got their back 100% and not committing to you and it's harder and harder
to get out of this like I think it's fucking awful and that texting thing is insane like I know
a friend of mine like a queer friend of mine who had this with a couple of girls but they be
like their messages were insane like I'm talking like thousands and thousands every
single week just constant communication
but this girl would not come here
like would not like it's just sort of like oh my god
you're taking up all our headspace
okay why are the queer women in the room laughing
is this just a normal thing
yeah
but aren't your fingers tired
more than hours
would be
we have stronger muscles
in our fingers
here's what I would say is
what I would say is
no I got it I got everyone got it
finger gunning
and texting
no we got it
we got the joke
you don't
yeah yeah
here's my thing
I think
it is common
but it doesn't mean
it's okay
I think what I can do
is have more empathy
for the other woman
if she is struggling
with realizing
she's queer
and processing that
based on having met you
you're giving her and out
she's not
no no no I'm not actually
wait a second
to me that explains
her behavior
it doesn't make it acceptable
so I think
that actually
if you
enable it and are like
that's fine. I actually think that's how
she learns to treat other women and I actually
think that you have to be like oh
you can be figuring out your queerness
you cannot use me as an experiment and you can't
pretend queer women have less feelings
because... That's what the L word for you will watch that
and figure it out. You know what I mean?
But also I do think there's a degree to which like
it happens very very often and it's like
okay to be like hey it's actually yeah
it's so difficult to work out your sexuality it's also
tricky to come out but what is not
acceptable is treating me in a way that I
wouldn't tolerate from a person who was comfortable with their sexuality because that still
has massive consequences for me. So I think it's not going to be boundaries. I also think,
I hope you've said at this point one of two things. Hey, seems like you like me. You want to get
on board with that or would you like to talk to me less and have a normal friendship? Because
you disrupting all of my dates as well. So that's just toxic. I love that. B. Hey, guess what? You
really fucking fancy me. Yeah. Surprise. Surprise. Surprise. You're texting me all the time and you kiss me
when you're drunk and then you pretend you can't remember it
or you can't remember it whatever. Babe
hello you fancy me and that's cool
that's fine. Or set up a camera
that they don't know about.
No I don't think
filming people when they're drunk. No it's not a crime.
No I don't think it's nice. If it's a personal use
if it's a personal use
it's not a crime. I don't think so Helen. I have a newspaper
that they're holding up.
I think we're all on the same page except that I do have
some more empathy for the fact that it is. It's so
confusing but it doesn't mean you can treat people terribly while you figure it out it just doesn't can we get
to the crux of this problem then how many text messages is acceptable between someone that's a friend during a day
and someone who you fancy i fucking hate texting so i have to want to have sex with you if i'm sending
more than 10 replies over a day and the 10 replies are like you have an emergency yeah i'd say like
four yeah i hate texting close friends just just get on the phone why we even
Yeah, yeah, yeah, always, always the phone.
Why don't we just FaceTime?
This is wild.
I always want to be on the phone.
And also FaceTime, she can't say she can't remember.
I mean, like, if you're seeing it face-to-face and you'll remember.
Yeah, it's like, we actually have something to discuss.
What about you?
Do you like texting?
No, I do not like texting at all.
I do, I do not like texting.
But I will say that dating women is committing to texting a lot.
I'd say, like, lesbians love to text.
I truly have had to, obviously there's an age gap between me.
my girlfriend of five years and at the start
she was like what is up with you like she just
not like want to talk and I was like no I just call me
and she was like what? She would see that as like a violent attack
I'm like call me why would I
cannot text this much like I cannot
I can't do it do you still think of texting
as as much effort as it was with Nokia 30 through 10
you had to like go through like three hits
and let me say this if I see a voice note
no you send so many voice notes
I know what I hate receiving them.
I love to say them and I hate to receive them.
Why?
A voice's not there.
I love to give my hate to receive.
I got a notification at 5am in Mexico from Catherine's going.
That's a tiny difference.
How do you like to have you scorn?
That was important.
That was for content.
That was important.
Thank you for listening to the podcast and thank you for backing me up.
And I heard it on the podcast.
I was like, yeah, it's really early in the morning.
Obviously I'm asleep.
How do you like to have you smile?
Also, it's cream first.
That's what she said.
You're all fucking animals.
It's the butter.
It's the dairy.
Wow, you guys are gross.
The jam's the spread.
I agree.
We're not doing this too after a day.
I agree.
We're not doing it.
Where can people find you?
Can I just say just before we finish?
You just said about buying people things.
I've also bought you guys something.
Guys, you're funny on the floor.
Yeah, it's just.
Stick it on the shower and then
No, it's a pig gift
A little hog, a little baby hog
It's a chest of a hog
Sorry that she just grabbed it out of your hand
No, no, that's fine
That is so nice of you
Not everyone brings us gifts
And I don't think they should
They should
This is so nice of you
That's insane
I can't believe this actually exists
Oh my God
Don't touch it with your fucking fingers
I was trying to avoid touching it
With my fingers
Catherine Gathex-I have watched you
wipe your nose
So many times
during this podcast.
Oh my God, that's an actual full chocolate pig.
Yeah, right.
It smells amazing.
Is it flavored?
I think it might be like somewhat.
Raspberry.
It'll be a raspberry flavor, will it not be?
A giant, pretty pig chocolate,
but it's a nice.
It's a nice.
No, I think raspberry sounds nice.
No.
It's piggy.
It's piggy.
Oh, it rips.
You ripped it.
It takes two to rip.
It takes two to rip.
Have a moment.
Catherine gripped it.
Thank you so much, Lee.
That's so nice of you.
With a strong.
Her grip so hard on it.
My fingers don't rip.
Those fucking fingers,
texting them finger with her fucking rip.

I just get more flashbacks.
grabbing her hip and just being so aroused.
Do you remember Kelly Rowland when she really stole the single?
I love that song.
I remember the tears I shared.
Yes, I do.
That's my favorite.
That was an amazing time for R&B.
There was like a couple of years
and the noughties where it all just went to.
Life was stole.
Oh, oh.
Emma will never know.
And the budgets, the budgets just were never,
I know.
They were just throwing money in these videos.
Isn't that when they released the video
of Nellie and Kelly doing dialer.

but like phones were so new
and texts were so new
that he's actually writing the message on Excel
