all of a sudden that was thrown into a ricker. Then I throw at

Well, I explained to Tom that I'm
hold on what was I fucking doing on Sunday I couldn't do it Sunday morning
anyway because I had an I had an early morning start for work right so it was
you couldn't do Saturday because of the radio show. Saturday you said and I said I
can't do it because of the radio show I mean Sunday we couldn't figure out
Sunday and so oh hold on a minute. No, oh god. Oh
God, okay. So Sunday we're supposed to do it Sunday morning and for reasons I won't go into
Yes, I told
No, but I told Tom that I was gonna be ready for seven o'clock to do the podcast
yeah, cut to seven thirty cut to me waking up at quarter past eight
and seeing a load of messages from.
And now I'm going to give you, I want to actually give you
some credit here, OK?
Because I think this is testament
to what a good friend you are.
Because you agreed to do it on Sunday morning, right?
You've got yourself ready.
You've got yourself up.
Okay, now I know you've got-
Oh, I will say as well, by the way,
it was a surprise throwing at me quite, like,
on Saturday morning, or Friday night,
so I was aware that it was a curve ball for you.
But what I would say is, the messages,
you've sent me five messages without reply, right,
because I was still asleep.
And the messages went like this,
you ready for seven?
Bro?
Bro?
Then you said, let's do it another time.
Hope you're well, my guy.
That was so, what a lovely, bloody, lovely map.
Yeah, well it's a nice thing.
I would say one thing, when it comes to work, you are very
punctual and you're always there. So I was a little worried that, you know, something had happened.
Okay. So that's anyway, it's a long story. Well, I say long story short, absolutely not done that
in the slightest. But we you are currently listening to me and Tom talking at four o'clock
in the afternoon on Tuesday
This has never been hotter off the press this podcast by the way
We should we should mention the fact that poor JT is now got a real man. Well, JT JT JT staring down
Staring down the barrel of an all-nighter right now
JT
Three three back is a pro plus a couple of Red Bulls on the go,
editors pen behind his head.
Has he got a time machine back to 1997?
Oh, I've got to make sure I get this heading down
for the ultimate morning release.
Is Pro Plus still a thing?
I think you can still get it,
but when was Pro Plus,
Pro Plus was like a big thing, what, 20 years ago, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But I think you can still get it. Because it feels like Red Bulls shat on Pro Plus, didn a big thing what 20 years ago right? Yeah yeah yeah yeah. You can still get it though.
Because it feels like Red Bull shat on Pro Plus didn't it really?
Yeah it did a bit.
But why is Pro Plus? Just caffeine in a tablet right?
Yeah unfortunately you can't you know it's very rare to have you know Pro Plus and vodka.
That's where Red Bull has kind of taken on the mantle do you know what I mean?
I do remember like trying to be cool in a club
and just thinking Pro Plus is edgy
and just sort of saying to someone,
I'm out of a fucking long day at work
or just fucking now at five Pro Plus.
Yeah, I can't imagine you said it like that.
You just said it like, oh, yeah, this is Pro Plus.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it just makes you feel
on top of the world, doesn't it?
Do you want me to hold your bag for you?
I can, I can do it.
You know what makes you think, you know, I don't know if you've ever seen this phenomena, right? That is taking over TikTok at the moment. That's certainly girl. Yeah, what's that all about?
What's the origin? It's like, I think it's some young lads who started it. I actually weirdly
saw like an origin story of it, where these young lads are discussing how
they came up with it. It might like my social media, that's
all it's been over the week is a constant stream of
satanic girl.
What's happening girl? You all right?
It's so pervy.
The grin at the end was so alluring.
Satanic girl, you all right? Sat me girl, you all right?
Sat me girl, you all right?
Do it, do it, do your best sexy version.
What, like, as if I was actually, like, I was...
Yeah, yeah, I'm a girl, I'm a girl, I'm a girl, I'm a girl.
So as me, as me, I'm not doing a character.
Yeah, so I've got my back to you, you're in quite a cool bar,
this is pre-leaser, you're 25.
All post. Oh my God god I can't believe it
um okay I can't believe it Taylor Swift amazing she's for me um hello?
What's happening girl? You alright? What's wrong with that? Why have you done that face?
That was actually quite sexy in a way. Why did you do that face?
Can I tell you why? Because I was shocked. No can I tell you why you did that?
I was genuinely shocked. Can I tell you? I was just like that. No no can I tell you why you do that face? Can I tell you why? Because I was shocked! No, can I tell you why you did that?
I was genuinely shocked!
I was just like...
No, no.
Can I tell you why you did that face?
Because you were so in character, you channeled every girl I'd ever spoken to.
No!
That's where that face came from.
I'm going to tell you now, because I looked away because I wanted to look at you for the
first moment.
I'll tell you mate, that was better than I thought.
I was like, hey, Sharnie, are you. I already had Shatling girl, you alright?
You had a fucking edge there bro.
Fucking sexy.
Okay, do you want to do it to me?
Okay, hold on.
Yeah, I'll do it.
Yeah, so I was saying, I just don't really like think that's the sort of thing I want
to get into, do you know what I mean?
Because I...
He...
Yeah, you...
Shatling girl, you alright? That wasn't real. That wasn't real. Yeah, certainly girl you're right
That wasn't real that wasn't real
That wasn't real
Was horrible, okay
That's a worse laugh
This is generally me. This is why I was all for. Yeah, but that was, that can't be real.
Can I just say quickly, right?
I did three ah-hams before you looked around, by the way.
Okay, all right.
Yeah, I did quite a few before you looked around,
by the way, bitch.
Oh, okay, okay.
Okay, right, hold on a sec.
Okay.
Yeah, no, because, yeah,
I'm probably going to get a drink in a sec, actually.
Sadly, girl, you alright?
Not bad, not bad actually.
That's alright.
Yeah, that's alright.
Little turn.
Yeah.
Little turn.
I've seen whole families doing it together, it's quite cute.
Yeah.
Um, can I, can I show you something?
I'm going to show you something now.
And I want you to tell me if you think this is weird
Okay, well two things are gonna discuss with you. This is the first thing
Yeah, this is what I've just had as a snack
Well, do you know what man I actually think it's banging tennis sweetcorn actually did yeah
Is that a thing do you do you know that I told you the sweet corn story, right? No go
What you probably have done in probably last episode. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm
the one time getting absolutely mashed. Like we were like on a
bit of a session me and the kind of guys and I basically did a
whole thing where I went door to door on a residential street,
saying that I was the Johnny Guring giant and I was now we were now doing
door-to-door deliveries of sweet corn. All right
This is probably about 21 21
I thought it's hilarious because everyone you
Know I was like, yeah quite a lot of people saw why you in green
I was like, well, it's a lot to put on green body paint every day when you're going door to door.
But I basically, I used to have a thing,
like that was massive when we were kids.
Do you remember like late teens?
Yeah, ho, ho, ho.
Ho, ho, ho, ho, green giant.
Ho, ho, ho, green giant.
It didn't matter where I went.
If I remember doing a summer season, wherever I went,
it would just be tons of people just doing,
ho, ho, ho, green giant. Sometimes like the fucking MC in a club would just be tons of people just going, oh, oh, oh, green giant.
Sometimes like the fucking MC in a club would just shout that out at me.
It was fucking, well anyway.
That's horrific.
That is horrific.
I know.
But I decided to sort of like fucking roll with it as the guy I am.
So I was knocking on door to door saying, hi, I'm the jolly green giant.
We are just now going door to door where,. We're seeing how much sweet corn we can bring to
you and we're cutting out the middle man is in the supermarket. Loads of people obviously are like,
yeah, fuck off. We don't want any. And then I got to this old couple who turned around and asked
for some sweet. They said, oh, wow, that's amazing. Yeah, we'll get some sweet corn, please. I was
like, how much do you want? And they were like, five tins. Yeah, that should do us. I was like how much you want and they were like five tins.
Yeah that should do us. I was like do you want that every week or every month? They're like monthly five tins. They want monthly five tins of sweet corn? Yeah. So I then... Bizarre. Okay go on.
I then turned around to them and was like cool and I was like I'll go and go to the van and get you
some. So I basically ran to the local co-op, five tins of sweet corn turn to sweet corn. Why are you doing this? Because I felt sorry for them. Why the fuck did you get this in the first place?
Because we thought it would be funny. Sorry first of all you say it's funny as a group of you it
feels like as a group of people bullying one idiot to go around Daltadil pretending selling sweetcorn. Look, you know what?
Let's just save that for my therapist.
I'm trying to hang on to the fact that this is a group activity.
OK, fine, fine, fine.
But what is it? Hold on. What is the...
What is the... Not the naivety in my life.
To try and make people like me, I decided to do something,
you know, the awful fucking sham that was the
friendships I had at the time. I don't be funny why does the Tom go to
a slaughterhouse and tell you the jolly good guy. What's the most positive outcome you were
hoping from this? What's funny when it goes right, how does it go?
Well when it goes right people like you I guess. No no, but what I'm saying is you go to the door.
Well, I think this is a nice story, right?
So then I go to the car, I buy five cans of sweet corn for them, take them back, the old
man said, what do I eat?
I'm like, oh no, the first order's free.
And he said, no, no, I'll have to give you some money.
I said, no, the first order's free.
Right, yeah, it's on the house.
So he gets five cans of sweet corn.
I go back, tell everyone the story and
everyone thought it was quite a sweet thing that I gave five cans of sweet corn to this
old man. He wins. Everyone laughed a lot. It was quite a sweet idea.
Tom, Tom, can I just tell you what you just did? You tell me to stop talking because it's
quite a sweet story and then delivered no new information at all.
I knew you went to go get the tins of sweet corn. That I interrupted you to say, okay, how's it normally going?
I didn't charge him for the tins of sweet corn.
That was a nice, I thought that was a nice vibe.
Yeah, okay.
That was a nice part of the story.
Him and his wife had five free tins of sweet corn.
Yeah, and then every month they would sit by the door
waiting for the next month's delivery. And unfortunately, it was it was to never come.
Yeah, I mean, yeah, I never really thought about that. But I mean, yeah, yeah, I mean, it was
it was
Did it ever go hilariously? Like, like, talk me through the funniest out a lot of why it
went.
If I look it back, it will be honest, a lot of my late teens, early 20s was doing stunts like this
for people to make people laugh, to avoid any sort of, I guess, like people say, that
would be a funny thing to do. We're going back to the guy who put an ashtray in my hood
when I pulled my hood up. Suffice to say I'm not friends with a lot of those people
now.
No.
Um, you know, it took me till about 35 to realise that they weren't necessarily sort
of like...
So you were doing the green giant thing till 35?
No, I only did that twice.
Okay, fine.
All right, so you did it till...
Okay, fair enough.
Yeah.
Um, did you, you must have been in situations where you did stuff in a group that you're uncomfortable about?
Correct. Oh, yeah. Yeah, definitely. It was a time in your
life you acted like an idiot or to get a laugh.
Loads of times. Loads of times. Yeah. You know, in ways that you
would set fire to your own dignity quite horribly.
Yeah, even now doing it on the podcast. This is nearly 30
years later. Yeah
Yeah, but you know you all you all do
You all do you always you know you do I mean I told you about the right about it in my book actually about
About the races in London I where I'm
This is really bad where like some kids like I was on some trip and there's some other kids from another school and then they said I wouldn't be funny if we pretend to your mates that I'm being really racist here and then I actually started crying
anyway super dark now listen the other thing I want to read out to you is Rob Beckett text me yesterday, right? Yeah, and he said there's an AI
Biography of me on Amazon, right? Yeah, right. So then I looked
I've just posted it on Facebook. There's an old there's a biography
Romesh Ranganathan's biography written by Arthur Raphael
Right, that's a biography, Ramesh Ranganathan's biography, written by Arthur Raphael, right? That's the picture.
Oh wow, yeah, I've just seen this.
Right.
And there's like a 50 page biography on sale on Amazon,
right?
What, of your life?
Yeah.
And look, by the way, read this, listen to this, right?
Writing a book is never something you do alone.
Ramesh Ranganathan's biography is no exception.
Many people's efforts have made the voyage richer
and more accurate, and I want to express my sincere gratitude
to, this has got to be AI,
to everyone who's contributed to the success of this project.
First and foremost, Ramesh deserves my sincere thanks
for his honesty and openness,
which have served as a foundation for this story.
His readiness to reveal his life's highs and lows
have provided us with an accurate picture of his career
and personal development. Ramesh's highs and lows have provided us with an accurate picture of his career and personal development.
Romesh's family and friends, whose additional viewpoints and tales have contributed priceless layers to my story, also deserve my sincere gratitude.
Their stories and observations have greatly enhanced his biography.
Particular gratitude is owed to co-workers, fellow comedians, have you spoken to this guy?
And partners in the television, radio and live performance industries who kindly share their memories of working with rubbish first of all am I dead it?
Is the book as he got any stories that are real it let me just it's got like a I
Mean that the introduction is so complementary. I can't even read it out
Okay, first of all listen to this born in Crawley
On January the 30th in correct, that's what Wikipedia says,
so that's what their sources on that.
Ramesh Ranganathan was raised in a household
that included comedy, culture, and in education
in every aspect of everyday life.
I don't know where the fuck they got this from.
Being brought up in a lively Tamil family,
Ramesh was exposed to a clash of cultures from a young age,
along with teaching him and his younger brother Dinesh,
to the limits of education and hard work
Oh, it sounds like Dinesh is written this his parents who were caterers. Nope never worked in catering their entire lives
Also instilled in him a sense of humor over the difficulty of being an immigrant in Britain
What the fuck is Romesh spent a significant amount of his early years?
Mate it's on Amazon. You can buy it Romesh spent a significant amount of his early years. What is this book mate? Mate it's on Amazon you can buy it. Romesh spent a significant amount of his early years at school. Well that's fucking, that's
an insight isn't it? He spent a lot of his childhood at school didn't he? How much is
it? I've bought it, I've already ordered it. You've ordered it? Yeah. So what are you reading
now is it? This is like a little preview on Amazon. Wow, fuck man that's crazy. £3.99
mine one is. Well how much is, Willicombe's got one of those,
pick it right?
I don't know what the hell's going on.
I just can't, are people actually buying that?
Or are they just hoping that if enough comedians buy it,
they'll turn a profit?
Wild.
Yeah, I mean, what happened to comedians?
I looked for you.
Yeah, I'm not big enough to have one of those.
You're not big enough, you're bigger than me, you twat.

on Tuesday night. It was a hell of a thing.
Okay. Now listen. Now listen. This is some real shitty behavior by you right now.
This is some real...
I'm just...
No, because I tell you, let's explain to the animal pack what happened.
So on Tuesday, last Tuesday, Tom and I were invited to a Sky, what did they call it? A Sky
Celebrate. I think it was a Sky, it was a lovely event, it was an
entertainment event for a lot of the people who work for Sky, a lot of production companies.
It was a nice thing to be invited to. An announcement of new shows, right? So I had been doing
a BAFTA writing day, because me and and Robert Hose in the BAFTAs again
and after that I went with a couple of the guys to have a few a couple of drinks right so I had a
couple of pints then I met with you right yeah and we went to a pub because we got there we
first of all you got a nice little trip around London. It was lovely. It was absolutely, you know what? You came to my office for the first time.
It was great, yeah, yeah, great, yeah.
It's nice to see the office before the home.
So, I had a little tour of the office.
Then, we got to the venue a bit early, didn't we?
So we went down the road to, well, went to a pub.
Anyway, we're at the pub.
It was a cool pub.
It was a cool pub, yeah.
I was saying the experience was right.
Do you know one of the things I thought was lovely,
the amount of people were sick,
because you're coming out the back of the marathon,
and there was a lot of adulation,
a lot of love towards you as a marathon.
Yeah, that was very nice.
That's very nice, but that's not what I want to talk about.
What I want to talk about is,
I was approached by a young man who was sort of like,
I mean, bless him, he was sort of slightly in shock that he'd seen.
He was fucking starstruck.
So he comes over and he goes.
He was like slapped round the face by an absolute hero.
That's what it was.
He was amazing.
I think he was definitely a fan because he was like quoting so many jokes and bits and
pieces.
Anyway.
It's insane how much he'd done.
Look man, I genuinely thought the marathon stuff, that was insane.
Him coming over and quoting loads of bits from your apology set.
That's not the highlight of the exchange, is it? Because as you well know, Tom,
the highlight of the exchange was, Tom, he didn't recognise you.
Fine, that happens sometimes. There's many times when you've been recognized and I haven't so you know
Yeah, we're not that's not but you then introduced him. This is the first bit. I don't actually mind
Right, it's quite funny. I suppose you introduce yourself as my agent Ian. All right
Okay, which is fine. You decided you're gonna take on this character
So you start pretending to my agent the bit that really?
fine, you decided you're going to take on this character. So you start pretending to my agent. The bit that really fucked me off, if I'm being honest, is you making out to
him that the tour's really struggling and had disappointed you where I wasn't doing
enough jokes in the chat with him because it's that sort of thing that could help sell
tickets and then saying to him, if you could tell, this is a fan by the way, a massive
fan, and you said to him, if you could tell... This is a fan, by the way, a massive fan. And he said to him, if you could just spread the word
and let anyone you know, know that Romesh is on tour,
it would really help him out.
Mate, what annoyed me is I said,
you've been to see him on tour, right?
And he said, no, no, no, no, I didn't know you were on tour.
And I was like, man, this is a trouble with it.
We've, yeah, as his agent, I said, two big nights in the O2
is fucking insane, but he had to do it for his ego.
So, uh...
It was horrible. It was horrible.
And then I stood there.
I stood there going, well, I can't now say,
oh, sorry, this guy is a fucking lunatic.
This decided for some reason to pretend to be my agent.
So I just had to go along with it.
When his friend came over and said,
and he said, oh, this is Ramesh,
and his friend was as busy as he was.
It was like fucking two lots of them.
No, but his friend recognized you.
Yeah, but when he said, this is Ian,
I went, Ian Davenport, I'm his agent.
Yeah, and then he looked utterly confused.
Do you know, when I, you know,
as a, like, that thing, when you start being a character,
I stepped into the shoes as your agent, right?
And I fucking loved it, man.
I was like, this feels like home.
Like, you know, it feels, what about the joke as well?
Because he said, oh, I didn't see you on the marathon,
and I told him I gave you a little joke,
I said, well, probably because he was running too fast.
Yeah, and then he said, yeah, yeah.
And then he said, I wish he did more stuff like that
when he's running around,
could have helped with some of those ticket sales.
It's horrible.
It was a fun moment, man.
Then we get to the meal.
Yeah, okay, so then we get to the meal.
I am now two beers and I had a gin and tonic at the pub.
So you downed a gin and tonic.
I would say you downed a double gin and tonic pretty Yeah, but that's because if that's your fault dickhead, because I wanted to get out of that
situation. It was just so embarrassing. So you leveled that.
So we dropped the gin and tonic go over to the restaurant.
Beautiful restaurant.
Some great friends there. Beckett, Willicom it came Chowdry was a Scott
yeah it was a real nice vibe yeah so a lot of the nice people there anyway I
had if they kept topping up the glasses right but you know really very nice
service it was like great unfortunately I started to feel you weren't drinking
were you drinking we or not I had a beer when I got in there and then I eat off
the drink just because I
Wasn't sure there was a weird weird thing that someone said I had to go up and talk about something
Yeah, like most because they were announcing the special yeah, that's in some other stuff
So they did at one point someone when you might have to go up and say a few words
So I was like what I don't even know I'm sorry if I wanted to I didn't even know what the night was
I was just looking forward to seeing you and a few other people.
So I didn't get quite anxious in my head about the fact of my eyes go up and say something.
You know, you and Becky went up. It was absolutely hilarious.
As we knew you would be talking about Rob and Rob.
And it was like that was a very hard thing for everyone to follow.
Then I'm like, what do I do if I've got to go up on my own?
It would be fucking terrifying. Do you know what I mean?
You got how do you follow that? It was like so that then they didn't even call me out and I just
called me up and I felt yeah it was a I find those I find those industry things nice.
The food was lovely, somebody's been fired. I find myself what I had such a fun time with you. I could
have done Romba Cheney and all night that would have been that would have been my dream. I did say
that was it. I did think it was fun us us just going to the pub, wasn't it?
Yeah, it was great.
It's a shame that it took us, you know, no disrespect to the Sky event, it was wonderful,
but it's a shame it took that for us to actually meet up face to face, wasn't it?
You know what I felt so sorry for is, and I saw myself in, poor Josh, when he had to go
right at the end of the night. I fought for Josh. He was
meant to be there with Nish. He was promoting Hold the Front Page. Nish didn't turn up and then poor
Josh and it was like it was after it was post desserts. It was a fucking tough slot. He did
admirably though. He did very well. Yeah he did. He did very well but my heart went out there.
Anyway I was concerned as I left and I left I think I might have been one of the first to leave actually.
You were out there, yeah.
Yeah, because...
I mean, by the way, can I say Beckett...
Beckett might have done one of my favourite ever Instagram stories of all time.
I know what you're talking about.
That was genuinely one of the funniest...
Let me say my side of the story.
I come out of the night, right?
And I bump into this music producer and a singer
that I'd done a thing with for this charity gig.
And I start chatting to them.
I don't know them very well,
but I'm having a little chat with them.
And then Rob Beckett drives past with his phone out. And by the way, Rob
is a real shit, right? So he goes past and he goes, stop
fucking, stop boring people about the fucking marathon.
Nobody gives a shit, right? And then we have an exchange. Rob
posts, cuts my bit off, instantly posts a video.
Right?
And then I have been, like, countless messages going,
"'Rob Dunya, you got done,'
when he's sort of banging on about the marathon.
He's responsible for basically a week's trolling, I've had.
Mate, has he put it up on his page, or is it just on his?
It's on his Instagram.
I don't know, he He put it on his TikTok.
Put it everywhere.
Oh wow. I mean, he got you done to write Bang to Rights.
He's not got me bang to rights.
He's basically...
No, but it was quick, isn't it?
He's basically... basically what
he's done is tabloid journalism.
Do you know what I mean?
Becker would be such a good tabloid
journalist. Becker could run a
fucking tabloid that guy.
That was fucking bad.
Yeah, anyway.
He did you good though, right?
It wasn't good for me.
And then the next morning I knew that you had the fear because you texted me.
No, it wasn't about that video. That video was funny.
But I more had the fear that I was quite drunk.
And it was in a situation where there's lots of people from the channel and all that sort of stuff and you sort of get a little nervous.
Your behaviour was it? When I slept, you were in good form. There was one guy by the way who,
and I won't mention his name because I don't think it's fair, but he was very very very very
drunk and I got put with it. He out of, had taken the credit for both of our whole careers.
What?
He basically said, oh, I gave, I remember when I gave you,
you and Robbish obviously did a podcast now,
I gave you your break, like, I can't believe
at what you're doing now.
What? It's like, yeah.
I won't say his name, cause it'd be disingenuous, but.
But what, from what though, what was the break?
Well, it was a show we did together earlier
in our careers. And he was very drunk, But but what from all that what was the break? It was a show we did together earlier on their careers and
Okay, he was very drunk and he was sort of like so whenever I see you
I was turning around I say yeah the fucking those two fucking gone on to do great things and it was me guys them
They're double X. Oh, I wanted to say
Very much started on a show called judge Ramesh, which, may I say, I was weirdly, me and Catherine
have just been away for a few days,
and that was the only English speaking show on in the,
where we were.
You're joking?
No, we were, weirdly we were in a place in,
Oh, is that what you said with that text?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
It was an easy, we put grace down,
we were having like a little chill,
and it had like netflix and stuff but
port lymph the um safari amazing by the way shower port lymph incredible
great great staff amazing place to be um but yeah that judge for some reason i like there was like
a french tv it was french tv in the room apart from two channels and one of them had Judge Ramesh. Mate, it's insane.
My look in that is awful.
I look like I've given up on life in every,
and I wanted to sort of,
Catherine, was that the character?
I was like, I don't remember.
I sort of was playing myself.
I'm untucked, I'm disheveled.
It's like, it's not good.
I don't really like you talking like that.
See, since when I first fell in love with you.
Yeah, but it was quite fun actually.
I thought it was more enjoyable watching it back.
But yeah, but this person was crazy.
By the way, animals are insanely incredible.
Like we just spent a few days with Grace.
Wow, wow.
But you know, people often talk about
who will Attenborough's successor be?
It's things like that that really make me feel like there's only really one obvious choice.
Well, I'll tell you that mental. Can I just say what two big things I noticed, right? Number one,
the gorillas and monkeys and stuff, fucking they are like, you know, and I've been reading up a
lot about this, I went into a bit of a rabbit hole about this, like they do you know, and I've been reading up a lot about this, because I went into a bit of a rubble
about this, like, they're fucking, they're onto stuff.
And they, like, the way that they elect leaders, right,
in their groups, right, and they have, like,
what me and you would be, which is bottom-runners
do fucking shit jobs and have to do favors
for the fucking top-end people and stuff like that, right?
But they have now, they've worked out how to in the wild filter their own water.
What? Yeah, so they've got footage now of them filtering their own water and also using
like tools to do stuff. They've been watching humans like out in the wild and whatever and
now they've worked. So basically Planet of the Oats and stuff, I reckon. Not in our lifetime, probably. I don't know if the kids are.
Okay, okay, okay.
Mate, let's have a look.
All right, relax, relax, relax.
This isn't, you had one lucky guess
with the McDonald's robot stuff, and now.
Mate, I'm telling you now.
How do they, how do they filter the water?
How do they filter the water?
Basically, they've done it through sands
and so they have this stagnant pond,
and they've done it through sort of sand,
and basically then they've got, they've found how they've done it. I don't know they have this stagnant pond and they've done it through sort of sand and basically then they've got they found how they've done
I don't know exactly how I think going into too much detail because you don't understand
you couldn't you couldn't follow how the gorillas have done it is that what you're saying?
I have felt war I live in a fucking house. The situation I'm never gonna do a Bear Grylls
fucking type shit show I've got a fucking bin of brain ball I know you put it in a kettle
and it fucking you boil it and it like you know then you fucking put it through a sieve and then fucking boil it
again and then it's usually fucking okay. What the fuck are you talking about? I'm asking how the monkeys do it.
The monkey? Yeah that's how I do it. That's how you filter water? Right okay okay. I don't filter at my
houses. No I get it. I get it. I do. You're about you got you bragging about the filtered water. You've got your house now.
Right. The monkeys I think from what I know, they had a stagnant pond and they somehow filtered it into different puddles got through sand and stuff.
Right. Okay. And is that did you? Sorry, I just got to switch my laptop. Did you did that? Did you discover that in Portland?
Yeah, yeah, it's amazing. What I mean is were they filtering with the monkeys there filtering water? I've got to switch my laptop charger. Did you discover that in Portland?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's amazing.
But what I mean is were the monkeys there filtering water?
Oh, no, the monkeys there don't need to.
They've got it fucking right over their heads.
So basically what happened was you went around
with Cat and little G,
and then you've got so excited about what you've seen,
you went into a deep dive, and I imagine Catherine's-
No, no, no, that was the safariologist who took us
round. She explains that, she went into great detail with that. She was very... Can I say,
mate? Yeah, yeah, so... Right, this is fucking trippiest, right? There they've got some lions
as well, right? And this morning we've gone for a little drive around,
having a little pop around in the golf cart, right?
And we see these big dad lion, mummy lion,
two little cubs, right?
And they're all playing around, beautiful thing.
Little family scene, lovely playing,
Meiji and Kaffin are like watching on.
And out of nowhere, the dad lion just stopped
and he looked around and he stared at me
straight in the eyes.
The two of us just locked eyes and it was fucking chilling, bruv. Like someone walked over my grave. I
reckon 10 seconds of just me staring at him and then he just sort of shook his head and
walked away. It was a fucking moment, bruv.
Why did you keep staring?
Well, I don't want to, like, cause he's a fucking liar, mate.
You laugh, you can't show fear to like big cats.
It's the worst thing you can do.
Like if he fucking somehow escaped Jurassic Park style,
first person he's going to come and find is a big coward.
He'd go, well, actually I respect him.
Like I'm not going to fuck with him for a bit.
I'll let you, I'll escape.
There's other people.
Tom, Tom, can I ask you a genuine question, right?
Are you being real right now?
Mate, I'm telling you now, if a big cat,
have you ever seen Crocodile Dundee?
Like if a fucking big cat or a wolf or something stares at you,
you have to stare it back, yeah?
Okay.
Don't look, keep your eye contact.
Yeah.
Like that.
No, I know what eye contact is,
and by the way, great for the podcast as well.
Do you want me to wait for you to finish?
I don't know, but you know what I'm saying?
You've got to fucking lock those eyes.
Okay.
It like, we fed giraffes as well, which is lovely, man.
It was really nice.
Okay.
It was a really nice moment.
It was beautiful.
Right, should we do should we do some
emails? Let's do some we got we got. Yeah, that's a nice time.
Okay. Bear with me one second. Okay, we've got a yo, you want
your work? Okay, shit. Oh, fuck. I don't. So we've got this is
it. This is for you. Somebody does this for your radio to do
somebody does all this stuff. Yeah, I don't play off somebody who does all this stuff? Or do you drive the desk?
Yeah, I don't play it off my phone.
I do, no, on Radio 2 I drive the desk myself,
but I'm not playing the thing.
Did you try, did you have a lesson in it?
Or did you just like?
No, we did like a, I went in, well, it's not, yeah, it's not,
I wouldn't say it's incredibly difficult, no, but I'm,
you don't have to learn how to do it yourself,
but I wanted to, so.
So I'm driving the desk myself. Good skill to do it yourself, but I wanted to say so and so I'm driving the desk myself
I'm not you know good skill to have okay now listen to this right, so this is high wall fell cat and swan
Thanks again once again to the swan for choosing emails when I heard you're asking me to record themselves thing
I see it too it felt like when Batman sees a bat signal. I'm always singing along to it
I want to record my own version, but then I listen to the last step
You said get them in ASAP so here's me singing the theme okay ready so this is Dan let's hear
yo you're what you want beak or jaws feathers or fur sharp teeth or feet with
claws whatever's preferred grind your last requests to steady your nerve then
podcast the body parts get severed and served bring your weak shit with a wolf
and howler that ain't just a mistake that's an awful howler both of them are known to pull the pack you shows at the
crowd witnessing the murder like they're rolling with the gang of crows fuck this
senseless shit let them see the whole thing they stayed dressed to kill never
sheep's clothing dark enough to turn the Sun to the moon you'll see nothing all
your ears are half a puffin oh expect killing red spinning and flesh ripping
impressive in it the death bringing his head spinning
Just kidding every word and his songs about to grow men dressed up as a bird and a dog
What do we think that's fucking banging? That's very good. You know what I'd love to hear
It's like a country and western version of this song. Can I just say?
Amazing but I don't know it's really amazing he did
It made me think that I don't know one of the words.
He says, fuck the senseless shit. Isn't it fuck the censorship?
I thought it was fuck the censorship, but yeah.
But either way, yeah. Show it to Michael Payne by the way. We should always love Michael Payne for doing that.
Yeah, or Michael Payne if you want to pronounce it correctly.
Okay, hello you sweet sweet souls.
I thought I'd get in touch following your recent chat about listening performances of the Pods theme song.
Rather than recording my own attempt at the rap, I think what the world really needs to hear is a so far unreleased OWL edition of this tune.
Word on the street is this will be the first track from the OWL's upcoming rap album.
And so, Rob, after playing this banger for the first time, could you give any ideas to when to expect an official release?
Lots of love, The Rock Copper Penguin.
OK, here it is.
Oh, if we started, JT.
Oh, OK then.
OK, this is the Owl, the one and only Owl in the studio live.
About to drop some bars right now. You know what's about to go down?
JT, drop us a beat would you?
Yes, I like this one.
Yo, yo would you want a beat would you?
Femz or Ferd, you're all teeth or feet, controls, whatever's preferred.
To grant your all-arcs request to stay your nerves, then vodcast a body pass, get seven desserts. I'm a Wow. What I found about that one is they started off with an incredible impression of the owl
and then they actually ended what was quite, they really found their own flavour towards
the end.
Yeah, yeah, they really did.
I'd like to hear, I wonder if there's anyone out there who could do like a country and
western guitar sort of version of it.
Yeah, yeah if anybody wants to, that would be great.
That would be pretty sick.
That would be pretty amazing too.
Do you want to hear a...
This is a non-theme tune related one.
This is so embarrassing by the way.
I could tell why the swans selected these.
Okay, this is from The Wall Creeper.
I'm just going to warn you, this is going to,
it's not good for the old self-esteem, this, all right?
For both of us.
Greetings from Albania.
Oh, that's quite good for a start your podcast is in tape entertain me
greatly and I feel connected while I'm away from the UK having caught the first
20 episodes when you released them for various tech related issues I missed a
couple of years that spring I went back and caught up because your conversations
of quality given that Romesh often references the pledged ideas that haven't
materialized I thought I'd give a list of the pledges I picked up on that we never heard about again.
Perhaps you could update us as to what happened to them.
Okay.
So first of all, I'm going to tell you now there's one, two, three, four, five, six,
seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven of these.
Okay?
Okay, okay.
I actually genuinely think we should do something about this because it's clearly a boat of
contention with people.
Cabbage seaweed. Did Tom's favourite Chinese restaurant indeed use cabbage as a seaweed
substitute? Did you ever go back and ask them? No, no, no. That was it. I mean, I moved house,
but yeah. Subsequently, by the way, that's another thing we were a little bit in front
of the curve on. That's become a massive thing. If you go on TikTok or on Instagram, there's constantly evidence that cabbage is seaweed,
isn't there, so yeah.
Yeah, okay.
Naked Crawley run, what were the results
from the poll for Romesh to run naked through Crawley?
How insane, by the way!
That's mad, because at the time,
we never thought you'd be able to do it.
That feels like, that's fucking big sponsorship.
That's big sponsorship.
If you did that, I'll match your fucking calm money if I did if I run naked free crawler you'll match my
calm on it yeah yeah okay we'll come back to you come back to you on that
Spanish section you're both going to start filming of says her because we
have was you know I've got no I've got to do it as secretly as possible if I
it by the way I'm not doing it if I do it I've got to do it as secretly as possible if I it by the way I'm not doing it but if I do it I've got to do it as in as survival away as I possibly can do you not think
and what do I do to fucking what I do otherwise you could just tell you done it you won't get
lethal one of the boys who you do it I'm not getting I mean Jesus Christ okay Spanish section
you're both going to
start learning Spanish and do a section each week in a language.
Oh, God.
This coach person is an absolute legend.
I know.
This is if you ever wanted a fucking insights my life and my
mental health. This is fucking Yeah, no, we've I did like, I
think, two lessons, maybe. Yeah. And I can't remember any of the
information. Yeah. And I can't remember any of the information I learned.
Yeah, but probably.
Sugar, did Tom ever attempt to give up sugar in the end?
To be fair, that's one.
I've cut down on sugar.
You can't cut it out completely,
but I have cut down considerably.
Like having fucking two or three cans of Coca Dates
and Zilch or maybe one a week.
I've been good on that.
All right, baldness.
You were going to get listeners
to test Noom's baldness treatment.
We're never doing that now, are we?
They actually got quite aggressive with us, actually.
We had some quite aggressive.
Well, I'm not, to be in fairness to them,
I'm not surprised.
I mean, the only thing that's got worse
is when we did that about a company
that were actually sponsoring the podcast.
Yeah, so look, man, we haven't, if anyone's still interested,
that is something we could run out.
Yeah, that feels like something we could talk about.
Okay, look, if somebody wants us to,
if somebody's up for doing this,
we will pay for your Noom.
Is it Noom?
Yeah, we will do that.
It's not Noom, is it?
Yeah, Noom, yeah, yeah.
Is it Noom?
I think.
Noom, isn't it?
Noom, isn't it?
Noom, yeah, Noom, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
All right. Best potatoes, you ran a poll for the best way to cook potatoes. What were the results? I think Newman Newman is it Newman Newman Newman Newman Newman Newman Newman Newman yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah to remember there was a real fucking swaggy sort of vibe about roast potatoes for a while that could have been said as we talked about um instagram live escape room did that ever happen
no again that's a fucking cool thing we forget about this that'd be a fun thing yeah we should
sometimes i think this podcast is completely devoid of ideas it isn't we have ideas we just
never followed them through so that's the difference we should do that oh man there's a sick one i saw
the other day let's do that let's do it. Once our tours are
finished. We both finished our tours around June, right?
Yeah.
International dates, but let's try to do that in July. Okay.
That can be a cool thing.
For some horror.
JT, remember that. Just JT or someone else from the, from the
Yeah,
well, why don't we just wait? Why don't we just wait until our
Albanian friend sends in another email chasing out what happened
to our second visit of this.
Okay.
This one I don't remember saying, but we obviously did.
For some horror film, did you ever sit and watch
a horror film with the cat and the swan?
No, no, I don't remember talking about that.
That requires us to be allowed into their house,
which currently isn't the isn't clear. Running
race. Did the big race ever happen?
Man, I mean, I'll do it now. But you I think you win that. I
know the cockiness in the mind of what he goes like. Right. I
think that time was pretty right. Check that I thought I
may be able to catch now you fucking tear my ass. I don't
think I would have to do it for charity. Happy to charity more than happy to but I think catch now you'd fucking tear my ass. I don't think I would. Happy to do it for charity. Happy to do it for charity, more than happy to, but I think you've
tear me apart. Okay, voice notes. Did listeners ever start sending in voice notes instead of emails?
Well we played a couple haven't we actually there, so fair play. How do you feel about that Tom? He
said, he said please do not take this as an, you know, don't take it as an insult. Mate, at the end
of the day I think he's an incredible human being. It was a nice thing to actually
make my heart smile a little bit just like thinking about those those those little memories
we have. It's like you know meeting up with people and weddings that we sort of I think
there's some weddings that we said we go to that we've been invited to which kind of breaks
my heart because I think did they not get married in the end? Yeah that's true. I never think about it.
So we'd actually go to and we never saw the invites but yeah.
Yeah well it's what a lovely email.
Yeah thank you so much.
So definitely Escape Room and potentially the Rome race and the Naked Runs record,
it could happen still in the summer months.
Oh you should do it during the Euros.
What do what? The Naked Run. I'm not doing it are you mental I'll get fucking killed
okay there's another theme tune here do you want to hear it yeah this is from the
wonky otter massive fan you two are gorgeous human beings all your stuff
makes me really happy was determined to call if he was in our gang, we were hanging around, we'd call him the Wattel, wouldn't we?
The Wonkyotter, you just lose.
Yeah, we would.
A Wattel's gonna be mad.
Yeah, yeah, no, we would do, yeah, well done, Tom.
Was determined to learn the theme
from when I started listening a while ago,
so I thought I'd better do it now you requested it,
let me know if the file type is wrong or something.
Okay.
I'll tell him I already told him I like this one,
because he's very anxious.
The file is called Wulfanall.
I don't know why.
We might do it in German.
Yo, you're what you want, be called jaws, feathers or fur, sharp teeth or feet with
claws whatever's preferred.
But ground you all last request, the steadier nerves, the podcaster body parts get severed
and served.
Bring your weak shit with the Wulfanall, that that ain't just a mistake that's an awful howler
both of them are known to roll up at your shoulders let the crowd witness in a murder like they rolling
with a gang of crows fuck the censorship let them see the whole thing they stay dressed to kill
never sheep's clothing dark enough to turn the sun to the moon you see nothing all your ears are
half a puff and i expect drilling dread spilling and flesh ripping impressive in it the death
bringing his head spinning just kidding every word to this songs about to grow
Men dressed up as a bird and a dog. That's good great. Oh very good
little surprise ending there
Yeah, that's good
By the way, he also said censorship
So there you go. Yeah
Okay, I'm trying to get another email up here.
Oh for fuck's sake.
Here we go.
This is from the knackered pigeon.
Well this is running advice,
so I don't really know if we wanna.
Okay well look, all right.
First of all, Romesh, London Marathon, wow okay.
I recently started a fitness journey of sorts,
I was rich in my mid-30s,
that's apparently what you're supposed to do.
I know for some insane reason,
decided to sign up
for the Great Birmingham Run to raise money
for the Anthony Nolan charity, who do amazing work
with stem cell transplants to save people
with different types of cancers.
I was actually lucky enough to donate my own stem cells
a few years back, so it's a cause close to my heart.
Anyway, reason for the message, I'm looking for some top tips
when it comes to pushing through the mentally
and physical world running.
I'm so far up to 10K, but very painfully aware
that I've got 20k on the horizon
in a couple of weeks time. Any advice would be great, appreciated. Okay, good luck. First of all, well done for doing that for charity. Naked Pendrin. Tom, what do you think?
I think they've got it. I actually, you know what, I'm going to be fucking, I found myself
slipping into a bit of a hole since I've
come back from Spain, I've had it very hard to get back into
the mindset of training and eat. I say try the training. I don't
find too hard. I think that ice plunges. That's the my diet has
just fallen off the fucking edge, right? Yeah, I'm eating so
much shit. It's unbelievable. Like I at the moment, I'm eating like I'm getting ready
for a fucking roll as just as a massive like, like I've got a pot on five stone. You know,
yesterday I went out to buy me and Catherine lunch. Grace was having a little nap. Popped
to this little calf. I thought, right, I'll get, since Catherine wants you want, brought
chicken, chicken and mozzarella sandwich. Then I saw they did toasties as I was paying
and I said, oh, can I get a tuna toastie
and a chicken toastie and a sausage roll, right?
I took everything back.
Kaffin had the original sandwich I got for her, right?
I ate all the other stuff.
Wow.
I ate two toasties and a fucking sausage roll.
Yeah, but in your defense, toasties are-
And a pretzel that I brought for Kaff for Catherine she ate like a third of it said that's
quite I don't mind that and then you know I think why I kept on going to the
bag with pretzels in and breaking off a bit and having a bite yeah and then go
back and then she went have you eat that fucking pretzel and I was like yeah she
was like right it you've eaten two fucking toast, two paninis, they were
like, a sausage roll, a cookie.
All right.
And two thirds of a pretzel for your lunch.
All right.
And then, then the evening roll man, I said, I'll probably just get a light lunch and then
have fish and chips.
I'm like, what?
I've fallen off the edge.
Start wise, I've lost my, I need to fix up and look sharp a
little bit. I find myself the mental illness of getting into
it again. It's starting to
know I try I tried to I tried to tackle that bro last night I
had like a real sad. So I when I was away on like one of the
travel shows, we were like, we had like this guide that was
with us and he made us and it was the first time I tried it this is a long
time ago right overnight oats okay oh the best so I had these overnight oats
they were a delight okay and then every now and again you sort of when you go
for a breakfast thing they've got like overnight oats right wonderful wonderful
and Jim my the guy that drives me, but who is actually your friend
He he makes overnight so overnight as well right so yesterday
I did South End on tour by the way shout out South End you're great audience
Yeah, and then I was reading about you know when he's getting to a deep dive online or I just thought you know
I'm reading about how healthy and good for you
and how easy to make overnight,
and delicious overnight oats are.
I'm going to make some overnight oats.
Anyway, I got all excited.
I got home at midnight.
I'm rattling around the kitchen,
trying to not wake up the dogs,
all these from the kids.
I managed to get the stuff out to make some overnight oats.
I set it up, mix it all up, do it.
Looks great, right? Mix it all up, do it, looks great, right?
Mix it all up.
Lisa, when I wake up this morning,
Lisa goes to me, what is that,
what is that that you've made in the fridge?
And I said, I've made some overnight oats.
By the way, Tom, let me add to you,
I was so convinced I was going to be making
overnight oats for the future,
I've ordered six jars, right, online,
and a five kilo bag of chia seeds right this is how convinced
that overnight oats are in my future right I tried it this morning absolute it tasted
like a fucking bird had vomited into the tub.
Hold on, how have you fucked overnight oats?
I don't know mate, I don't know. What have you put in them? What have you put in them?
Porridge oats, almond milk, a bit of protein powder, a little bit of like vegan yoghurt
and then I added some blueberries this morning as a topping.
It was fucking...
How the fuck did you do that?
I don't know, it was horrible.
It was horrible.
Is it a ratio you've got wrong?
Maybe.
I mean I just did it by eye which you know is not not a
great game for me that's not much that's a weak joke man not as weak as my eye
that's that's what that's why I sit as my fucking how much I judge a comedian
really at what point do they pick on your eye is at what point have they run
out of any other very upset about it very upset about it, don't you?
I think it's disgusting, but anyhow.
Okay, so I think it's the-
No, but my thing is I can't see how you've messed that up.
I know, but I know.
I find it is that you've gone in too seedy, I reckon.
Because actually, I'll be honest,
the almond milk and protein powder,
I use normal milk, I use full fat milk,
but almond milk I have used and it's banging usually because it gets that sweetness. I use normal milk, I use full fat milk.
Almond milk I have used and it's banging usually
because it gives that sweetness.
I don't want to do this.
Don't give up, that's what I'm saying.
If anybody can help me.
Let the fucking overnight oats be your new marathon.
Yeah, I need vegan assistance please.
Can I say Jim by the way?
I've never tried Jim's overnight oats
but I've heard him eat them
and he's the king of overnight oats.
He's our fucking choice. Yeah, but I've heard him eat them and he's a king of overnight oats.
He's a fucking enjoy-seller.
But when he picks you up and he's got some overnight oats in the car, that is all that Jim can talk about.
As a man who loves his golf, I'd say that he's lost between the moon and overnight oats.
Just about 20 minutes away Mr. Ang and Ethan
and then I will be tucking into my overnight thoughts.
That's a fucking banging impression.
That is fucking, that is amazing.
He does that little thing where he smacks his lips.
Yeah.
Right, Tomo, we've got to get this wrapped up, bro, because we've got to send this off to the editor in chief.
So Tom, do us the honor of wrapping up this, I would say, slightly rushed episode.
Yo, pips and stones, flesh and bones.
Truth is, it's hard to look at fruit and not judge it by the skin
it may be in. Some skin is edible, some skin is like banana, you must peel it back to get
to that sweet sweet fruit. And never be alas that there's pits within that as well, although
they're succulent and you can eat them. I guess it's a little bit like human beings.
See we come in all shapes and sizes, very much like fruit. But the truth is, the thing that makes us all up is that skin, bones, blood and all
the other stuff and organs and stuff inside you.
And you wouldn't judge an apple as harsh as maybe you'd judge a banana if you found them
both delicious.
And even if you found a peach, you wouldn't be mean to it.
You'd simply just turn your cheek and not put it in your mouth and eat it.
And I guess that's the truth about society, right?
It's really easy sometimes to be mean and to be nasty,
rather than just turn the other cheek and go,
I don't like fruit with stones, or skinning a banana is quite annoying.
So I won't eat the banana.
Sometimes it feels that we should talk out of turn.
I'm talking about trolling people.
This week I've had my fair share of turn. I'm talking about trolling people. This week I've had my fair share of it and
actually as I talk to a lot of our friends and even Ramesh here today, it's a really
really horrible thing. It strikes me as a chord that we all think is kind of faceless
and kind of you just get away with it. And as someone who suffered a little bit this
week can I just say, stop it.
If you're not big enough to say it in person
out in the street, then shut the fuck up and leave it.
Remember, not everything needs to be said,
and if you haven't got a point in your saying something
just to be a prick, leave it.
People, do better.
Wow, that was, it sort of took quite an aggressive turn.
Very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very,
Yeah, no, no, but I, I, I, very, very, very, very, very, very, very,
very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very,
very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very,
very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very,
very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very,
very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very,
very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very,
very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very,
very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very,
very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very,
very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very,
very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very,
very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very,

very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very,
very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, so that we can do better. What's triggered this? No, I just got I do. I do know I've got one guy
who does it every fucking day. And I'm just a bit like, like, just like at me on fucking every,
every social media and like, you know what, I've got pretty broad shoulders and I'm like,
whatever, man. But there's a point of me I was talking to someone earlier who's like finds it
But there's a point of me. I was talking to someone earlier who's like finds it He's having an awful time with it and I find it it's
It I find it very sad and I find it is a thing in society
And I don't want to make like about I was trying to make it fun without but I can't help but it annoys me
Because any kind of bullying and any kind of like this sort of and I think it's cowardly and I think that's the worst
Side of it. Hmm, and I think that's the thing that just frustrates
and I know you get a lot because we've talked about it as friends we talked
about it on here but I just think it's like bro fucking yeah I get you buddy
I get you buddy okay song to play us out please JT could you play the song
separated by I am nobody I'll be listening to like a little bit of I'm
starting to get excited and started to listen to summer jams you know what I mean?
Oh wow wow. We should do a summer single. Would you do a summer single?
Like what? Maybe we should do what was that song that we did that we improvised? Love.
That was fucking cool. Yeah. We should do a version of that for the summer. Put it out.
That'd be good. I think we could do like me and my inspiration from country music music with your hip hop we could just fucking merge it to sweet song. It's a great
idea. We can release it take a big shit on both genres. I think that's a great idea.
