Hello, trusty hogs. It's Catherine Bowhart. Every single Thursday, the end of July, through to August, I'll be recording an episode of my new radio show, season two of TLDR. Too long didn't read. You can get tickets on the internet. You can skip the queues for the free tickets by putting in the code news hogs. News hogs and capital letters. We have still got tickets going and I would absolutely love to have the hogs there. So please come along and I'll say hi after. And I urge you to do it quick.
Quickly. Thank you. What's up? It's Helen Bauer. A couple of things for you. Number one, I'm at the Edinburgh Fringe, 320, 20, at Monkey Barrow. We got there in the end with a show called Bless Her. And that would be lovely to see you at the Fringe. And then I'm going on tour all around the UK. And then I'm going to like Berlin, I think Oslo now and Switzerland, somewhere like that. And then if you want to not,
not pay for a ticket, but see me do stand up.
Subscribe to my YouTube page.
Thank you and good bless.
Good bless.
God bless.
I liked good bless.
Good bless.
Hello, lovely hogs.
I, Andrew White.
I'm also fringing and touring this year.
I'm only doing two weeks at the fringe with Young Gay and a third thing.
28th of July to the 10th of August at Cabaret Voltaire 835 every night.
And then I'll be touring all over the UK in November.
At standupandri.com.
Thank you.
Hello and welcome to episode 196 of Trusty Hogs and it's me, Catherine Bowhart.
And me, Helen Vatt. We're together.
As it should be. The world is right. We're back, baby.
We just had a coffee together. It was really nice.
It's all good. Everything is nice. We're back together. We had a weird long embrace.
No, did we? You said we.
I did. We haven't seen each other in three. I want to see three weeks.
It was crazy. And also, you did kiss me on.
on the forehead, nose, and chin,
which I found reassuring, if also a little upsetting.
It can be both.
You react to those embraces.
I go rigid.
Very autistic man.
Yeah.
It's like trying to hug my dad.
Catherine was like, I walked here so I'm sweaty.
And I'm like, hmm.
Yeah, I am, yeah.
I mean, you, my therapist, several people mentioning the A word lately, sure.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Apples.
Yeah.
It tracks, sure.
um hello and welcome obviously this is a podcast about our perfect lives where we answer your listener
problems and you guys have a lot going on so we are going to try to get through quite a few
of those today because it's just us well i say that but we do have possibly the parish announcement
of all parish announcements yeah to make um and i don't know if we should start at the top with it
or should we just i don't know should we talk about other things first okay yeah through the fog
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
I think let's talk about other things
first. Give me a headlines. It's obviously we haven't seen each other in ages. Tell me
what's up with Helen Bauer, please. Um, still got gallstones. Okay, but we, but we have a date in the diary.
We have an operation date in the diary. Talk to me. It's going to be July 17. Woohoo. At 9 a.m.
I don't know if this comes out on that day, like the day before. That would be crazy. It'll be so crazy.
This, uh, this, you, you would have had the surgery by now. Okay, I've had the surgery.
How many days before?
This is like the week after the surgery.
Okay, just bear in mind that when this episode comes down,
Helen's in Operation Recovery, so just be gentle and nice.
And I'm like so nervous for Operation Recovery
because obviously like it's such a restrictive diet up to the operation
to get like my liver the right size for the operation.
Okay.
And then it's like no restrictions the day after.
Oh God.
Surely it's not the day after.
Nathan's like, what's going to happen?
And I'm like, I don't know, but I'm going to need no eye contact for like 24.
Don't look at me.
Don't look at me, answer the door for every delivery driver that comes.
Yeah, I'll get an ice cream delivered.
I'm like, I need privacy for that.
Yeah, I agree.
But do you think you might not be hungry after all this?
People say that, but when I, did I ever tell you this?
I feel like it's a deep shame that I never talked about.
But do you remember when I had the egg thing in Oslo and was hospitalized for like my stomach, the top of it broke?
Yeah.
You told us that.
Literally left the hospital and immediately had a full dominos pizza.
That's okay.
told us that. Okay, good. Good. God, I really don't have much shame. No, and you certainly have no boundaries.
What I would say is you do have some shame, but you have no boundaries. So that's fine.
Like, if you thought it, you said it. Probably. I have one operation question for you guys, though.
Okay. Not a doctor. Would love to start with that. No, emotional operation question.
Okay. Again, you can't really do hugs, but let's try it. Let's try it. Let's try it.
Emma Black was like, I should come with you before you get put to sleep. And I was like, no, I don't think
you need to be there? Because I was like, it's really early. And Sunil's going to come get me after
the operation. And Emma's like, I think you'd want someone there when you go to sleep. And I was like,
I don't think I do. But do I? Am I being ignorant? I'm sorry. I think you do. I actually think
that would be so lovely and it's so nice of her to offer. And if she has the time, which she can
decide, you should. She would say, she would drop anything for, she's so good. I think you should let
her do that. I think you would do it for her. No. Shut up. Yes, you would.
And I think that if it's fine and you think, oh, I actually didn't need this.
Grand, okay, you've just seen your lovely friend and that's okay.
If it's not, if it's panic, if it's panicky or a bit spooky, I think you'll be glad she's there.
For sure.
I just think the trade-off is so much more important to have her there than if you're not, you know.
Also, as if, Emma Black, come on.
I bet you she gets up at like 5.30 every day anyway.
To brush her beautiful hair.
Do you know what I mean?
To brush her beautiful hair.
She seems like a kind of gal who's like, at 4.30, I'm on the treadmill.
We actually know.
At 5.30, I'm brushing my beautiful hair.
At 6.30, I make my bread from scratch.
It's more like at 6 a.m. I listen to Paris Hilton Stars are Blind on repeat until I start work.
Okay. That's better. That's better. That's better. But the point is, I want someone that then.
I think so. And I, no offense. I don't think it should be any of your male friends.
No, I know. I, yeah. May I? Please.
I think get Emma Black to come.
I was like, oh,
when I could get Sineal to come earlier
because, like, if he's doing the pickup,
that just makes sense
because then he can just dick around the hospital for a bit.
And then I was like, wait a second, no,
because he doesn't know how to like hold a hand very well still.
Like he can if I'm like crying, crying,
but that's years of coaching.
I also drive and can hold hands.
So if for some reason she can, just let me know.
But you're coming over to do the weekend with me
with a food shop.
Yes.
I'm really using and abusing everyone for,
just a gallstone operation.
I'm like, guys, someone has to go to the shops and buy me potato spilings.
But also, you won't be able to stand up and I'm not buying potato smileys.
Why?
I, come on.
Oh, don't be like that.
I will be like that.
I'm going to bring you nice things that are good for you.
Potato, are you fucking joking?
Potato smileys.
They're not potato.
What's the number one ingredient?
They're not potato.
I bet you it isn't.
What's the number two ingredient?
Nonsense.
Potato maize, starch or something.
thing. Andrew, ingredients
of potatoes.
Literally, I could hear it happening before you.
What's the percentage of potato?
That percentage.
85% potato.
You fucking lying bitch.
Okay, I actually do.
I actually, do you know what?
No, I'll take that.
I'll take that.
I might not have been a lying bitch,
but what I was doing was making assumptions
and it made an ass out of me
and only me.
And I honestly thought it was less percent.
I'll buy them.
Actually, the ingredients, potatoes, vegetable oils, rapeseed and sunflower,
potato starch, salt, white pepper.
Absolute jokes on me.
I'll buy them.
That's fine.
Oh, my God.
Thank you, Andrew.
You know what?
We're having them together.
I'd actually love them.
Can I buy some ketchup?
Yes.
And some barbecue sauce.
Wait, do you want to, when you come back on the Saturday, do a film after me.
I apologize, everyone.
I besmirch the good name of potatoes, Miley's, and now I feel like a fool because that sounds
delicious and also they'll sound fine.
Yeah, I'd love to watch a movie.
Have you ever seen First Wives Club?
do not come to my house and insult me
motherfucker wash your mouth out
I've seen it about 18 times
it's one of my mother's favorite films
I've never seen that
are you joking
it's the greatest film
we're watching it you've never seen it
save it for me oh my god
Sarah Jessica Parker in that film
oh my god it is
everything is it like
it's the one where they sing that song
like don't tell me what to do
it's incredible it's incredible it's incredible
it's incredible. Bet Midler, Diane Keaton, Goldie Horn,
what's not a love? It's incredible. Okay, yeah, we're obviously
doing that. Okay, great. Yeah. I'm so excited to do that.
But that's what's happening with me. Oh, that, filming the show, obviously.
Okay, so, so, sorry, you've got your operation prep, and that's going well.
You've got, by which you mean, we've convinced me of the merits of, um, smiley, potato
smil on pickup. But,
Sineal on pickup, Emma Black on drop off, maybe.
Apologies.
Yeah.
But yes, okay, so you're currently on Sam Campbell's sitcom.
You are acting in it.
I'm an actor now.
How's it going?
I love it.
It's good, right?
I've been enchanted.
I've been enchanted.
Have they given you tiny cut-up versions of food yet?
Does anyone show up with, like, carrot sticks that are pre-cooked or fruit that's cut for you?
Yeah, we're one difference.
It's my favorite part of acting is how everyone's like, snack time, and I'm like, okay.
No, what we do.
do do is um sometimes there's ice creams and then the producers come over and apologize to me because
i can't have anything because of the like the operation prep diet what the hell and they come over and
they go like oh we're so sorry and then they stopped saying sorry so then i had to go find them and i was like
why are you not apologize helen no more and then yeah i made them feel really bad good for you and then
they started apologizing to me again good good good and i feel amazing good good good thank you um how is the acting
going how are you finding the actual like becoming a different character um i don't know good i guess yeah
yeah it's all much quicker than i thought it was going to be i don't know you've done more acting than me
i had my had my time again i would maybe have understood how little time you get to actually
do it you get like two or three goes maybe i did the pilot this like two and a half years ago
no no i mean like you you get like two or three goes to do each scene not if you fuck it up
five times in a row and they have to do six takes.
Oh, my girl. Well, I wish
I'd known that. I never
know when it's the cameras on me. I never
know when it's my angle. I
the first six weeks
I was like,
when will they be filming my bit?
And people were like, we did that first. I was like,
what was I doing? It's my
hands do you think. What was
I even doing, would you say?
Yeah, I, what you, it's called
your coverage.
Yeah. But yeah, I never knew what my coverage was.
unless it was like in my face and right and then if it's in my face i'm looking down the lens yeah
obviously spiking spiking spiking spiking wait is that what it's called yeah spiking the lens okay
i'm just like looking down like smiling and waiting yeah yeah i just kept looking at our poor
dop who is the um director of photography i think i um used to just like whenever he would come
anywhere close me i'd be like james make my tit look massive please make my tit and he's like that's
not what the lens is what the lens is supposed to do i was like come on man
And he was like, I wish you'd say your line.
But, yes, it's very, yeah, it's either like, am I even on camera?
Or you're like, I'm too on camera.
That's very stressful.
Please get away from me.
I think our set is weird because it's like mainly stand-up comedians.
Oh, of course.
Right?
And then there's a couple of actors get sprinkled in.
And I love it when there's actors in because that's so funny.
We had one where there was like an actor in.
Such a samurai degree of the comedians to be like, it's such a relief when we have an actor
for some of the funny is there.
But they're like, like, they just, like, what people care about is different, right?
So, like, comedians, you want to be, like, as funny as possible.
But the actors are like, oh, they're going to fuck me over and just get a profile shot.
I can feel it.
They're not going to do full face.
That's so funny.
I think it's so, oh, my, oh, my God.
Yeah, I've actually, I'll tell you so much more about this later, obviously.
But I feel like people want to hear about it.
I do think it's interesting.
I think, like.
we um yeah i mean you finish now huh i've finished how have you the thing i found that was interesting
was by the end of the 10 weeks 10 to 11 weeks i was like starting to get a bit itchy feety and i think
that's a stand-up comedy thing where you're like i'm not used to doing the same having the same
job for 10 weeks really it's so rare yeah yeah yeah and even though i was loving it my brain was like
we should be in a different city we should be going somewhere like i like i was kind of uncomfortable being
still but it was so fun and I already miss it and damn I miss catering
see this is the thing I think we're having two such vastly different experiences
yeah well to be fair I had Spanish catering so obviously it was amazing whereas I have a
weighed out amount of protein and vegetables with no oil yeah because you're on this
and then the insurance gets fucked if I turn yellow and then you're like in
Tenerife in the same place.
Like, I'm moving between Watford, Kings Lanley, Guilford.
Like, I'm, I'm travelling, baby.
Oh my God, you are, and those are all.
I've stayed in for Premier Inn.
I actually love a Premier Inn.
It's amazing.
It's such a reliable hotel.
Let's say it all together.
Everything's premiere, but the price.
One more time for Catherine.
I don't have television.
Are you guys watching, like, is this an ad from, like, terrestrial?
What is this?
It's like the slogan of,
Premier in.
Oh, never noticed.
Everything's premiere, but the price.
So good.
I do think one of them, though, I got some sort of scabies down the back of my legs from
lying on the floor.
That's not so premier.
But that was from the floor because I've rediscovered yoga with Adrian.
Who are you?
You did such, like, you did so many years of mocking her from stage.
I have changed.
Who are you?
What are you talking about?
You work out all the time.
I have changed.
So, one thing, I thought I might have locked my housemate in the house this morning.
No, he's just saying, thank you for putting my washing out.
You're welcome, Nathan.
Oh, we're just doing text messages on the podcast.
I worry that you're like locked him in or out.
I can't remember.
I left the house in such a days this morning.
I know, I do yoga with Adrienne again.
I'm not yoga.
I love exercising.
Who even is?
I moisturized my body and I'm like, this feels amazing.
Helen, I'm so proud of you.
And it's like.
Isn't it so.
annoying when you turn it
that exercise is actually good for your brain.
We're not doing this.
We're not even discussing it.
I know.
It's so annoying though.
But I did yoga with Adrian,
but I wanted to do it because obviously like...
Which ones are you doing?
I want to...
Are you in like a 30 day cycle or are you doing?
Oh no, I just do random like the evening unwind.
There's like a 12 minute unwind one.
Have you done her yoga for sleep one?
Yeah, one of those.
It's like a 20 minute yoga for sleep.
Yeah, it's fucking gorgeous.
Is that the one...
Sorry to say it.
It's gorgeous.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
The one where it's like, they tell you to take the deepest breath you've taken that day.
Yeah, and she's like, get a blanket.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, like, come on.
It's like 40 degrees outside.
You're going to get a blanket.
Okay, well, to be fair, she doesn't know where you are or.
She should.
Okay, well, yeah.
She should.
I'm very warm.
Okay.
I'm very warm.
You hated the woman mocked her tirelessly and now.
You're like, it's weird that she's not making these specifically for me.
I can't believe I mocked her so much.
I really love her now.
And, and, and, but I did it.
But I didn't have a yoga mat.
I don't cry.
No, I'm just like, you mocked this woman and then you really love her.
I think she's wonderful.
She makes so much good content for free.
I've completely healed myself internally, apart from gravel guts, which is what my friends
call it now.
But you're working on it.
I'm working on it.
And apart from that, I'm the perfect human now.
You have done an unbelievable amount of work, Helen.
You have.
You've spent so much time.
so much time doing the work
I'm so proud of you and I'm perfect
now yeah yes
and I'm now 10 and I'm 10 years old
are you admitting that on this podcast? Yeah I grew up I'm 10
did you go to drink that coffee out of the wrong side
yeah fuck off
fuck off
so I just I just
it was so sweet because it was like
what a 10 year old would do when drinking coffee would be like
I'm 10 I'm having this car
yeah I have sex
you know this
hello yeah yeah well you're
dragging on the podcast today.
I had sex twice.
I gave a blowjob to completion
for the first time
in like 10 years.
Yes, that's right.
She had sex.
And if you want to hear
the explicit details,
they will now be in
the extras
because I say something,
because I say something
the XXX extras.
Very good, Andrew.
Because I say something
that Helen says
is the worst thing I've ever said
and I don't necessarily
want my mom to hear it.
So I had facts.
What I will say,
obviously we're talking about
it in the extras.
Yeah.
but it's too hot.
It's too hot to shower bed right now.
It's a crazy time to be.
I feel like by the way,
this was the problem last time
you decided to have sex as well.
Yeah.
Remember you went to that hotel for like the afternoon?
Oh.
And you were slip and slide and then too.
My God, we were.
You love, you get,
maybe you're on heat and the heat.
What's that about it?
I think I definitely am.
Hornier in the summer.
I'm having summer crushes at the moment.
Yeah.
Like I am like, I've definitely like,
I've got my first crush.
like I'm just crushing on people I think there's something about you in the sun you get hornier in it
I know and also I feel pretty at the moment I feel beautiful so I'm walking along and like but I mean
when I get a crush because I don't get them very like I mean rarely like I haven't had one in like six
years I'm so excited that you have one I like I literally feel like I'm in year seven again
and Chris Beck has come into science and I'm like oh my god
Who is he, I assume, a gay boy?
Yes, of course I fall in love with another gay man.
And I'm just like, oh my God.
And whenever I see them, I'm like, I smile and like, what do you, what, is there like a new way of saying my click clicked?
Like, I don't know, not that I'm aware of, but then I'm not in those circles.
I also did, okay, what circles?
Sexually active women.
Yes.
Yes.
Yeah, exactly women in the circles I'm not in.
Exactly what he meant.
Yeah.
Did he said her?
No.
But it's like, it's so.
I'm so happy that you're having a crush.
I remember your last summer crush was Ellen,
but I remember that summer so clearly
because you would come meet me after my show every day
but I knew it was only because you had to be in the courtyard
to be close to Ellen and I was totally being used as an excuse.
But you were like, oh, I just really wanted to come support you after your show
and I'm like, why? I'm fine.
And you'd be like, no, I don't know.
Should we go stand over there at this specific time?
No, I don't want to stand there.
We have to stand over there.
And now you get it.
Now I'm in it.
But tell me, because, okay, because I'm wondering about you feeling beautiful because I feel like
this was, this is true of this, I feel like every woman in London looks so great right now because
it's like summer dress weather. Is that what it is? I don't know, like what's making you feel so
cute. Cut to me wearing my jeans and my Disney t-shirt. Yeah, obviously currently have Mickey on
your left tit, but still, that's nice. Where the heart is. That's so sweet. I don't know. I think
I'm just like done a lot of work on myself and I decided to go back on Hinge.
and like I've dated two people obviously like it's not gone anywhere but I think they've both
been very positive experiences and I've learned a lot from both there nothing bad happening like
one of them just wasn't romantic and one of them just like fizzled away yeah yeah yeah through like
both being busy but you're like I'm attractive to people I'm attractive to people but also like I've
got like I've got so much love to give and I also am ready to be loved and return and that's just a
nice feeling and then also like I'm like I have like crushes on people and I'm like I have like crushes on people
It's so weird when, like, therapy starts clicking in.
This is huge.
And then, yeah.
And then, like, I got to, like, I bought, like, a new top the other day.
Nice.
What's like?
I'll wear it for next week's episode.
What's it?
It's Gen Z.
Is it?
It's Jensy.
Say more?
It's, um, it's like, it's, I think, okay, I have a theory that Gen Z don't like
Velcroft buttons, but they're like bows.
They're, like, tying things.
Okay.
Right?
So it's just three ties down the front of a t-shirt.
That's sexy.
That's it.
It's just like material would just,
tights because they just they seem to like have a fear of like an actual fastening.
Is that right?
That's how it feels when I went to a shop recently.
And you think the shops are run by Gen Z's?
Wow.
They 100% are.
I went to and other stories on nobody's child.
By the way, they need to do a size bigger than a size 18 in there.
I was like, I'm just going to have to walk immediately out.
In nobody's child.
Yeah.
They don't do it bigger than size.
Maybe they do online.
But like we go into shops.
I don't.
We go into shops.
You get no points for doing it on.
online oh yeah no we you can buy them from us you can give us your money but only in secret ideally
where no one will see you fuck all yeah no sorry well that may be really it's so easy you put the sizes
in the shops you double the size of the fitting rooms and wide a mirrors how hard is that you just don't
get any points for doing it online i hate when they're like kicking it on online you're like okay well
what if i but everything in there was just bows like fastening bows because i have a feeling
Gen Z, maybe like a S&M thing, maybe an S&M thing.
Let me read you this.
Oh, Andrew.
Harper's bizarre.
Bowes are back in a big way, screenshot media.
Why are Gen Z as putting bows on everything?
Her Clementine Collective, why I'm ridiculously obsessed with Bose right now.
It's big.
Okay, Helen.
Okay, she has the pulse of the nations.
I see fashion.
Yeah, indeed, indeed.
Oh my God.
She's hip.
She's with it.
One second.
Am I the most fashionable woman in London right now?
She says with Mickey on her left it.
I'm just crunchy on her right arm.
And he's on your back.
Am I that, yeah, she says with her
millennial trainer socks, you can't even see,
her arch support trainers from A6 on,
her jeans from snag for size inclusivity
around the larger belly and her Mickey Mouse t-shirt.
Am I the most fashionable woman in London right now?
Wait for it, wait for it.
I've also got M&S full briefs on.

how are you um just to just in just a clarity i've not been phillets gofield
no that would be helen um no guys uh yes this is big news we are ending trusty hogs
and we wanted to give you a five week run in and it's not a decision we've taken lightly
it's been a lot of tears a lot of tears we have been discussing
it for about four months. I can't believe it's been that long. Yeah, but I know that this might be
a lot if you're, if you rely on us every week and we're very sorry, but we just, I guess the first
thing to say is thank you for listening. Thank you so much. Oh my God, we actually, I, we cannot
believe how many of you have listened every week and how supportive you have been and we hope you
still will be of our comedy careers. It's been life changing. And so affirming. I don't think I,
the whole of myself as a or like as a person who like had an audience or was a proper comedian
until you guys so thank you so much you've you've changed all of our lives yeah um in such
huge ways i'll let you guys speak but i just like i can't stress enough how for me starting with
gigless this went from like a community who supported me through heartbreak to a community that
paid my bills when my job went away to a community who's made me feel like a real grown-up
comic so thank you from for me thank you very much we will explain why this is all happening in
a second but i just wanted to say that first of all what about you i'm devastated andrew you go
she's crying go on but you're right they did support you through heartbreak isn't that so
beautiful yeah this is like completely changed our lives it's been six years huh yeah yeah it's
crazy it's i yeah i can't believe a obviously starting in that zoom window and then the the um shipping
container it feels like we just gradually sort of widened out our world we've like literally and
metaphorically it's been crazy oh my god i didn't even think about my either that's beautiful um yeah
especially because like i'm not necessarily like the on-screen person um but you're everything
and you mean so much to me and i love you and katherine loves you i love you also we
have no idea how this gets out onto the airwaves so thank god do you worry you're on you
we actually have no i've just been paying all the patreon money just to keep up the illusion
i never knew how to do it so glad it's ending because i'm so much debt um yeah it's crazy
uh yeah especially as like an off-screen person it's been so nice for hogs to comment very
positively when i'm more involved in the thing and they love support me and my shows
Um, yeah, and it has been life-changing in, in terms of just, uh, audience, in terms of, uh, regularity, you know, just having something every week, um, ever since giggless, really.
Um, yeah, community, friendship. Yeah, so much. There's so much to say. Um, I'm just very, very grateful.
It's so crazy because I, with Andrew, I think you know this, but I contacted David Hoare to be like, yeah, hey, do you want to do my, I want to set up an online gig.
do you want to do the tech for it?
And he was like, I'm too busy.
There's a guy I know who might know something.
And Andrew was like, yeah, I've just learned it.
But like, I'm sure you'll have learned it in a couple of weeks.
So I could do it until you figure it out.
And I was like, I won't be learning that.
And then also I got on this call with this child.
Literally.
I got on this call and I was like, who are you?
What age are you?
And he's like, 21?
20 at the time.
And I was like, Jesus Christ.
And then he, thank God.
ran the show um yeah you've really like grown up with it yeah it's yeah definitely like
properly become a it's 25 when your brain finishes growing am i done that 26 you're so close
you're so close like you own a house now yeah and i absolutely definitely couldn't have done that
without trusty hogs um this you know regular income is a allow me to build up you know the money
but also just to prove to the mortgage people that like hey i'm a viable person please let me
Yeah, I remember that call
I was in the Morrisons in Virlwood
Near my parents' house
And every time I go around that Morrison's Voward
I think, oh, I've got that call here
And was it a phone call? Did you phone call?
Phone call and then we did a Zoom
Yeah
Granny loves a phone call
I had to say you phone call
Well Zoom was still new then
I know but text
Well what am we going to text
I needed to know all the nerds
I didn't know the words for the thing I was asking
What you mean text
Could you get like da-da-da-da-da-da-da
I'm obsessed with a 20-year-old taking a phone call
and a Morrison's as well.
I know.
That hasn't changed.
Oh, man.
Yeah.
We're very grateful.
It's been life-changing for all three of us.
And it's been six years of releasing something
every Thursday, huh?
Yeah.
Like a new show every Thursday.
I watched an old episode the other day on YouTube
just to look back and someone had commented,
like, look at baby Helen and Catherine.
And I looked to us and I was like,
oh my god yeah we're literally babies yeah and we've definitely like so proud of the way that we've
grown I know and I think we've done so well we have and we're so grateful and thank you and to be clear
I'm so proud of you Andrew so I think you've done just such an amazing job with all of this and it's
been like the most magical six years we've loved making stuff with you guys so much we've
and I'm so sad as ending but I'm also like so excited for what we're all going to do now and
and I think that's the most important thing is that like yeah I think it's been like I've loved
every second of it even the ones where I've been yelling fuck you at everyone because you know you
don't let me eat on air or something but I'm not so excited to see what like I know you've got
another radio show I'm so proud of you for having your own radio show I think that's just so
fucking cool and like all your tour stuff and all your acting and I'm just like
I can't wait to see what you guys keep doing.
Same.
You're in an incredible comedy series.
You're going to tell us more about what you're going to do next in a few minutes.
And I think,
I also think, like, just for the listener,
because obviously so many of you have come such a long way with this.
Oh, first thing to say is.
Which is crazy as well.
Like, we've seen you grow over six years as an audience.
Like, particularly the younger audience numbers.
It's wild.
And I'm like, oh, my God, you're now like married or you've got a baby.
They miss their wives on our show.
I know.
Ruth, hello.
But also we just,
to say,
so one thing I really want to stress is that we couldn't finish hogs without,
we were like,
we cannot do this without having one big more live show.
And so in October,
the last podcast will come out on August 21st, 27th.
21st.
21st, but in October,
which date, Andrew?
The 12th, Sunday.
October 12th, we are doing one last big live show
the Clapham Grand, which I know is so
ambitious of us,
given that we won't have been
coming out. We've got nothing to plug in.
Yeah, but we are,
we just would, if you've loved the podcast,
if you want to like come
and say goodbye to this,
not to us, because we're not going anywhere.
No. But to this
and to, then we would love to see you there.
We're going to try to get a bunch of old guests
back on this show.
And we think it's going to be like a celebration.
We needed something to sort of round
out we didn't just want to say like peter out and say goodbye so we do we are going to do that
um and you've lots of time um are tickets on sale for that yet andrew they've already sold quite
well um yeah thanks guys this is what they mean you're so good you're so reliable and also
you freaks will have already found it on the internet permanent um no we put on sale for the patrons
oh and many thanks to the patrons we told them we didn't tell them it was ending this this
not that it was ending many things to the patrons can knew without you um but
But, yeah, but just to explain, basically, we...
Should I do my shelf analogy?
Yeah.
Can I do my shelf analogy?
Oh, I've not heard this.
Okay.
It's quite, I think it's apt.
Okay.
Okay. Like, we love doing this.
However, it's been getting increasing, like, with everyone's schedules and
and stuff going on, it's been getting increasingly, increasingly harder to, like,
get to do this and to be all be together.
You've probably noticed, we've had, like, guest co-hosts the last couple of, like,
weeks with, like, filming, being.
out the country like personal life stuff and now um our shelves are so full but all three of us
there's other things we want to do as well like with new projects coming in that we haven't been
able to do and to be able to do them we have to take something off our shelf and this is what
we're taking off our shelf and it's just going on a different shelf because it doesn't disappear
like the YouTube videos will still exist the feed will still exist but not going to yank it away
and it's a body of work
we can always look back and be proud of
and also we've all got
a perfect four year diary of our lives
which is so
so weird and wonderful
yeah isn't it wild
to think of like everyone like we're just talking about
the yoga with Adrian and stuff
but to see like your journey
like we've got you falling in love with Ellen
we've got you heartbroken
like learning to tear
we've got you cutting a fringe
all the way to fancy
to like putting yourself out there
to fancying someone to having a relationship to now like to moving in together it's all beautifully
documented you with your first boyfriend with Reese like all of this ghosting my god but we've got it
all perfectly diarized isn't that so I think it's so special and you know in many ways we are samuel
peeps of the 2020s like in many ways and that's what everyone has been saying I guess I guess
way. So listen, we don't expect you not to have no feelings about this. Um, if you do have
feelings about it. I don't have any. We totally understand it. And also just feel free to send
them to us, of course. And just remember that when this comes out, Helen will be a week after
her operation. So just go gentle. Maybe send them to our email or to the trusty hogs
Instagram account. Yeah. No, send me videos of you talking about it. Yeah. I want to see them.
But also I think I feel like we do have so much else on.
Absolutely.
And it's really hard to manage like the three of our diaries.
I also think I personally need to figure out what I want to do.
I don't know what I'm going to do next.
But I know that I feel the pressure to sort of say what's going on in our lives I find is I've
been finding really hard because it's great when things are good.
but when things are bad or complicated in our personal lives or maybe sad,
I don't feel comfortable always saying the truth.
So then I feel kind of like I'm lying or like I just feel a bit like there's a pressure,
isn't there, with this kind of thing.
No, no, not lying.
But I guess I feel like there's a pressure with the sort of self as brand.
that I know I feel over-exposed a bit and I'm excited to have some time to think about what I want to say
and why I want to say it and I and I'm yeah I guess I don't know maybe I'm just like a bit of a like
an up and down person and sometimes I find it hard to be like woo-hoo um so maybe I just need a break
but
God damn
it's been so delicious
and lovely to be here
and so just like
so startling
as you know
I will not
do not
and will never
listen to the podcast
but
I listen to it
so much
I'm just astonished
every time
someone's like
I listen to that
and you're like
what really
running into people
whilst they're listening
to it
like that's gonna end
soon
it's crazy
it's crazy but yeah just thanks thanks so much i like we're really glad if you enjoy it and i assume
if you're here you have um and thank you for sending in your problems and trusting us with them
that has been my favorite part is um i love love love hearing about your lives and um hopefully
we've helped a little bit um and hopefully we will see you for a big goodbye oh we've definitely
helped them we've also done some damage because they've definitely helped us because you can
see it we're on a staging with
talking and they're laughing so they're recognizing that what we're saying is like
truth and we feel less alone and then also they feel less alone hopefully well we're just
all in one big cuddle cuddle pile like a like a pile of like I was like don't you say cuddle
puddle or I will vomit don't you do and we're all smelling to this hair and I'm giving you all the
biggest warmest hug but I feel bad because do you remember ages ago I used to be like episode 200
I'm going to organize a big surprise in the surprise oh my God it's ending surprise yeah we
We were talking for a while to get some sort of clairvoyant to talk to Diana.
Yeah, we were.
Is that what you were planning?
A clairvoyant to talk to Diana.
Because I remember, this is like ages ago, Catherine was like, I want to talk to Andrew at the end of the podcast to plan episode 200 because I want to plan the special episode this time.
And I was like, oh my God, it's like, was it a clairvoyant?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I didn't actually do any of the research in the end.
Yeah, we decided to end the podcast instead.
It was too hard.
That's the real reason.
That's the real reason.
And suddenly I'm four again.
But Helen, you can and talk to us because where do you want the listeners to find you?
Because obviously, by the way, Andrew will, has a radio show, will continue to do stand-up
and we'll have many things for you to follow him on.
I will continue to do stand-up.
So will Helen.
We both will have tours.
We'll all have tours.
I'll be in Edinburgh right now.
I'm doing a radio show all of August.
You can come and see it be recorded in London.
You can listen to it on BBC Radio 4 on a Friday night.
but um and i hope to have another podcast in the future but helen never to sit still for a moment
is already ready to go helen take it away i'm not done podcasting none of us are but you are
you're ready to continue right now yeah i'm gonna have a new podcast yeah i'm gonna literally
just keep going on thursdays love this i've got a name i have a theme tune obviously
they have a lot more sorted out by the final episode of trusty hogs okay
so are you telling us that don't like basically don't panic on the last day of hogs
Helen's going to have a new thing ready to go you can literally like jump over on the
feed you can jump over on the feed for the the following week look and Catherine andrew
both have to guesstimate yeah have to compulsory compulsory like but like taking no for
answer we keep saying no repetitively like you have to be like the new senil Patal's
That's perfect.
That's perfect.
And you come, yeah, turns out, I, opposite of you, love sharing my life.
Oh, yeah, we all heard the Bojo's stuff about 20 minutes ago.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I love it.
I do too sometimes.
I love it.
I want you to know everything that's happening internally and externally.
That's so nice.
But I'm also, I'm so excited, but we've spoken about this.
Like, it's weird because I'm going to.
to stay in this studio.
Are you?
Fun.
But I'm not going to look over there and have Andrew and I'm not going to look over here and
have you.
It's going to be, yeah.
Oh, that makes me feel so emotional.
It's going to be amazing.
I'm going to miss this so much though.
Oh.
Because I really, like, I really have loved it so much.
That's so nice.
And it's been such a like, yeah.
And also like I'm just so grateful that you ask me to come and be a part of Gigless.
Because I think like, number one.
One, I was so glad that I was able to, like, see you during that period when you were so...
And you were fucking miserable.
Yes.
But I'm just so proud of what we managed to make out of it.
Yeah.
And it's like, and I'm so, I am, I'm also so glad it's ending.
I think it's so the right thing because I want to see us what we're going to do next.
But I also think it's so sad that it's ending and that also so happy.
But maybe we'll, like, come back to it in like 50 years.
Don't say that
That'd be so beautiful
Yeah
It'd be like
The Smack the Pony reunion
But for like
But for like the three people
Who are still
Remember that I'm happening
Don't say that's fucking
I've already
Because that's so beautiful
Hog to Ginerians
Oh Hog to
That's so good
I can say it
But I want to be able to talk me through it again
Hogg to Gennarians
Hagtagenarians
I just got deja vu
I like that
No no
He said it twice
Oh
That's what happened
Horticenarians, I love that
So I look forward to that in 50s
That's nice
I'm gonna do
I want to get one piece of all the merch
Yeah
Don't buy through the website
We could get to the trade of price
Yeah I want that and Francis wants something as well
That's nice
Yeah the merch will stay on sale for a while
Can I see one more thing as well
I just remembered
Who would stop you
We should say this
I swear the moments
Like that week
Where we were like
Let's go to episode 200
and then stop there, that really emotional week for all of us.
Like, I swear that week, I had the most amount of hogs in my shows
or that I ran into on the street.
And every single one of you told me how much the podcast means to you
or what it got you through.
And I walked away and you probably, like, you will know if you're one of those people
because I would have turned away and gone,
oh!
And I was like, here.
in my fucking throat with emotion.
And I was like, what is it, like,
is it always been this way?
Or is it just as weak?
But I feel like people felt it.
No, I feel like since we decided that it's time
it has to come to an end,
I have had people, I've had more people than I've ever had,
like, stop me on the street and be like,
sorry, are you from Trustee Huggs?
And I've been like, what?
Like, I feel like there was a morning in Poppum's London Fields
just after it when these three girls were like,
we listen to Hugs.
And I was like, I was so weird,
Because similarly, I was like, oh, no, we're going to break her heart.
Oh, God, we're going to break that girl's hair.
I'm sure she's fine.
But, you know, that feeling of being like, oh, I love that you love this.
And you don't know, but it is actually like, this is our last summer.
And then it makes me think of that song in Mamma Mia.
I can still recall.
Our last summer.
I still see it all.
Okay.
I'm out.
I'm out.
You had me until now.
And now I'm like, get a grove.
Yeah, I agree. No, no, no, no. What I will say, though, is for me. Sorry, you're gay and you're straight a crying, Catherine, please. What I think is nice is that we made a thing that people will actually care as ending. That means we made a good thing. And what I really don't want us to do, and I'm really glad we're not doing, is eke it out to the point that it's bad or, like, we're doing it like half-heartedly or because we're too busy to do it well. That would be a great disservice to you guys and to our listeners. So I'm glad we're not doing that. But it is really hard.
hard. It's hard to say goodbye. We've all had such wet faces this spring, summer. Oh, now
Andrew's crying. I can't. I'm okay. I'm okay. Is it, is it because of the mum of me or so?
No, I've actually got hay fever. Oh. No, I don't. You motherfucker, if you finally conceded that
hay fever was real, we'd have got you. Did you imagine that's the end of the podcast?
Andrew White being like, hey fever does exist. Oh. And that's it. We would flip the
table flip the table oh my god do you want to flip the table on the last it's not our table
looking at looking at looking at looking at you just say that you want to work in the studio going
forward oh yeah yeah don't do that i had a meeting about the new podcast nice it was so weird
because you two weren't there yeah no we won't be at those meetings why i know
why though i feel very um yeah very a last day of school which i always found difficult like
I cried the last day of junior school.
Everyone was like, woo, yay!
And I was inconsolable.
I was like, we will never be 10 again in these uniforms.
Whereas I'm deeply uncomfortable with goodbyes.
I'm like sitting in great discomfort right now.
On the last day of filming, the TV show, I didn't know they did this.
The clap.
They do this thing called the rap clap where they like, they'll go like, that's a rap on
Catherine Bowart.
And then everyone claps.
and locks at you and I was like this
I couldn't have gotten it either any faster
like I hate goodbyes
I'm a real like dip out
I wanted to just like not make a thing
I couldn't I was like this is horrific
and that's how I feel about this now
I'm like okay well that's that so let's answer
a problem shall we yeah
oh you know what let's do a problem yeah
that'd be nice
should we do a nice positive one
yes please or if you had any updates
we'd take them oh let's have a quick look
for updates um because i love an update especially the next five weeks tell us the news
oh yeah we've had because i put these in the updates folder we've had loads of people reaching out
that gallstones are like the worst pain ever being like helen you're you're a brave soldier i'm feeling
so justified in my pain um the ambulance lady on set she was like i've had two kids and i'm
she's all actually had gallstone she was like and i would have a baby everything
single day not to have gallstones again and I was like oh thank God okay that's nice also like
sleigh for me that I didn't have to call an ambulance you know yeah yeah well done like sleigh say
slay sleigh factor 50 all over my body let's not burn I made a really stupid mistake because a lot of
the emails I've put in the updates folder are people being like thank you you got to be through
things and that's great oh I don't know but I do have a problem update that you will remember
okay okay give it to us give it to us um it this is from I hi hi hi hi who
matched with a guy on a dating app.
I thought you were going to say me.
He seemed like very familiar and it was like geographically weird, didn't quite
work, wasn't quite sure why they'd matched.
Turns out they're from the same small town and this guy is her ex's brother.
Oh my God, yes.
You remember this.
She was like, should I tell him in advance of the date that I used to date his younger brother
or should I not?
Yes, yes, yes.
I do remember this.
Exactly.
I will never not remember gossip
For just a recap context
She dated this guy when she was 18
And now years later
She's matched with that person's brother
Okay
Hi Hogs
Hi
To limit confusion I'll call them brother and the X
Okay yes
I think we had a lot of confusion last time
Yeah for sure
I landed on the same decision as Catherine
I had to tell him
or I would feel awful.
Great.
Backstory on the X for context.
He cheated on me at the time
and I was devastated,
as any 18-year-old would.
I took it very personally
and assumed it was due to myself
not big enough.
After talking out with friends,
I realized why I was so scared to tell him,
the brother,
because I assumed
he would have told some awful secret story
about me,
had been told some secret awful story
about me by the X
about how weird and gross I am.
Once I'd realized that was
my problem, I thought it wasn't to be, as I'd always have this intangible fear over me,
that this some sort of secret would come out. Not about dating the two brothers, but the secret
that I was a bad person. The last mission I sent to him, I was talking about the small
Essex town we're both from, gearing up to telling about the scenario. Turns out that was enough
to get me ghosted for whatever reason. I think this was a blessing in disguise. Even if it all worked
out, I would be carrying too much into that. I also couldn't bear the thought of meeting the parents
for a second time, as lovely as they were.
I hadn't even thought about meeting the parents for the second time.
You didn't go on this day.
Yeah.
Thank you for all your honest and kind advice.
Oh, I'm so glad.
That's not right.
That's not right.
Oh, I, well done.
I'm really glad.
Oh, good.
Okay.
Also, healthy emotional regulation to be like, yeah, they go Sidme and great.
Like, we, that's that door closed, uh, curiosity.
finished yeah also like it's so hard those sort of anxieties no matter how much you
intellectualize it or therapies it you're just like you sometimes you just can't get them away
to me it seems intuitive that he realized that she used to date his brother and was like
i feel weird about having done this and he instead of saying that you panicked and ghosted
but that's fine because i think that also tells you how he would have reacted if you told him
yeah so grant saved yourself some time yeah i
that's wicked. Oh, well done.
I'm so glad you told us.
Any others? I love the updates.
Let's have a little...
I love them so much.
I know. I can feel you coming along right now.
I just like the end of it. I like a story resolution.
Please.
This is...
This actually isn't a resolution, but maybe vindication.
Go on.
For somebody at that table.
It's never me. It's never me.
It's always vindication for you.
No, it's not. See potato smileies.
It is.
Oh, yeah. But that was fucked up what you said about the potato smile.
No.
And I get that.
And I'm sorry for shouting and fuck you
because I actually love you
and I've been on a real roller coaster.
Listen, it's just another day at home,
but I feel like it's going to be
vindicated for Helen.
Go on, Andrew.
This is from Elle.
Hi, Elle.
Being a fan since the early days,
but nothing has ever moved me
to write into anything ever until now.
Side note, I did actually once write
to Marks and Spentz's
and Marnemore Vegetarian Indian Ready Meals.
It was not a good time for me.
Catherine, this is for you.
Honestly, Elle, thank you for doing that admin.
glad to reap the benefits.
This is going to vindicate Catherine.
This is Elle's second ever email into anywhere to say.
Catherine is correct about beans.
I felt so alone for so long on my slow-cooked,
thick-y beans island.
Sorry, I felt so alone for so long
on my slow-cooked, thicky beans island.
Thank you for saying this L.
People are not cooking their baked beans for long enough.
The amount of messages I've had on Instagram
being like, you were right.
And I'm like, thank you.
you add a load of black pepper
get a little bit of a mollay going
I'll also suggest smoke paprika and Worcester
sauce hard agree on
both counts flaps
how good do you feel right now
I just feel like more people knew I'm sick of being
why are people serving me this like hot
mucus with beans in just cook it longer
it's supposed to be nice
this is I will actually name because this doesn't matter
that's not anonymous this is from Lindsay
and they actually drew that
drawing that of you appearing
through the fog that upset Catherine so much
no way that's
L? Why did I say it upset me?
I'll read the exact wording. I made the horrible
drawing that freaked Catherine out, the one with you both appearing
through the fog, sorry.
Oh Lindsay, thank you. Look how sentimental I've gotten because we're ending, I'm
like, no, it's lovely, but it still freaks me out.
Wait, wait, wait, what are we going to do with the staff?
You could have it.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
I think we should each take our knitted pigs.
Yes, definitely.
Can I keep something for my next podcast?
Yes.
Of course.
Yeah, yeah.
Yes, anything you want.
Can I have the picture of the three of us?
Yes, that's a nice choice.
I want to have like a nod to hogs.
That's a really nice choice.
I like that.
Yeah.
That Dolly Parton candle has been with us since.
Okay, I'm going to get really, I'm going to make you myself emotional.
Anymore?
That candle's been with us since the first.
No, maybe it wasn't.
Do you remember that studio in Shortwich where we did the first episode?
We rented a studio.
Maybe it wasn't there on that day.
For two episodes.
And that was a really hot day, huh?
Yeah, wow.
Lots of good things happened to you.
And we ate pokey balls and Andrew ordered pizza hat.
And is it pokey or pokey?
I still don't know.
I can't say pokey.
No, naturally, no.
You can't say pokey.
I can't say pokey.
But that's, I think it's fine because everyone says it now.
Do that everyone I know says pokey.
Oh.
You the fuck.
So I don't know what's...
Okay?
Yeah.
Are we scum, Helen?
Are we scum?
I think...
No, you don't have scum at all.
Are we scum?
No, don't worry.
And if you are, that's not wise.
No, I'm definitely wrong.
I'm always wrong.
I mean, when I first moved here, my parents had, like, indoctrinated us because they were
like, you can't be the thick Irish, so you have to have able to pronounce your THs.
So I got to London and was like, ah, the Thames.
And that was wrong.
Go on, Andrew.
apparently it is
Pocere
Pocair? Yeah
This is according to Ardash Hawaii
Pocke. Pocke. Yeah. Pocke. Yeah. Pocke. Yeah. Poke. Anyway, any more
updates? Well, we'll end with this
very fun, sweet sort of addendum. Yes, please.
From our producer, Stephen Chicken.
Hi, Stephen Chicken!
Because Helen suggested that maybe has a wife called cow.
Yes, because of cow and chicken.
Mama, I had a chicken. Daddy had a chicken.
a cow.
Steve says,
I do have a wife,
sadly not named cow,
but she is called
Nikki Chicken,
which is good enough
in my opinion.
Nikki Chicken!
Nicky Chickie!
That's so cute.
Oh, that's so sweet.
That makes me really happy.
That makes me really happy.
Oh, my God, that's adorable.
That's so sweet.
Oh, very good email, Stephen.
Wait!
Last thing, before we go,
I think it's a good note,
actually, because we've been
talking about how much support you've all given us and thank you. Before we go, we had a gift
sent in by one of our producers. Oh my God, we did. We did. Um, so I got sent in the gift.
Yeah. From Dougie, our producer, because of your gravel guts. And it's so cool. It's for calling
for assistance. I am obsessed with this. What is it? It is a Charles and Diana. Like, I just came
into the studio. I haven't been in for three weeks and there was two presents for me. I've never felt
so cool in my fucking life. One of them are book. I'll read it. But, um,
From PR, not from like a person.
What you missed was when you weren't here,
Catherine coming in going,
oh, packages.
Oh, they're all for Helen.
Yeah, every week I'd be like,
what, uh?
And Tommy Patrick would be like,
can I open them?
And I was like, no.
But it's like Charles and Diana.
But Helen love gifting.
But you need to explain to the list of that it's a Charles and Diana,
Diana, Diana, Diana.
Oh my God.
It's a Charles and Diana, Ihtian, Bell.
So good.
And I'm going to use this.
Poor Nathan.
For Nathan will be fine.
I'm so sick of this poor Nathan,
poor Nathan, poor Sineil bullshit.
Like they suffer because Helen's, they're fine.
Nathan, you know what?
How about this?
If we're going to go for it,
he keeps on saying about how he's going to start watching The Wire,
like literally the moment I get operation.
I'm like, no, I have operation.
I get TV for 10 days.
Doesn't matter.
You'd love it.
Wait for this.
One, two, three.
A sex in the city house.
Have you not done that?
Never.
I always thought I'd get divorced at some point and watch it.
But turns out that's not happening.
So I'm just going to do it for post-operation.
This is a really good time.
well you're divorcing your stones
divorcing my stones also I'm getting crushes
for the first time I'm being sexually active
like yeah fuck it I think it's a great time
oh my god you've so much luck forward to
I've got I'm going to be I'm going to be
no no gravel in my stomach yeah
and then watch sex in the city
and then if I want anything I go
Nathan
I need this
now can you see why people are saying poor Nathan
now people need to take care of me because my sister
keeps saying that she wants to come up and take care of
of me and that makes me
nervous. Yes.
So nervous. She keeps going
like, but when you're back from your
operation you'll need someone
there to do things for you and I'll
do it. But no, she's got like a nurse ratchet
vibe to her. Yeah, I really see that.
I really see that. It's very like
oh I push a pillow down on top of Helen's
head. Yeah. I push it hard.
I'll get you something to drink. Yeah.
Drink it down.
Drink it. Yeah. And then not to end in a full
emotional note, but I will just say this. Thank you so much for all the lovely gifts you sent my
sister over the years. You have embraced that, that horrible, evil thing that I am related to.
Stop it. Evil. These are not the views of the podcast or the podcast network. It's only because
she likes you now. She's randomly just like completely fallen head over heels and love with Catherine
and suddenly just thinks like, oh yeah, poor Catherine. She goes for so much with you.
like where the fuck is this coming from where does it like no idea what this yeah suddenly but
but thank you for like finding her gifties and thank you all so much for being there through the
loss of pancake yeah well I'm laughing while I say it you're going to end an emotion on you bring a pancake
