Both of them are known to pull up at your shows Have the crowd witnessing the murder like they're rolling with a gang of crows
Fuck their 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'll see nothing
All you hear's a huff and puff and a...
Expect killings, red spilling and flesh ripping
Impressive innit, the death bringing its head spinning
Just kidding, every word in this song's about you grown men dressed up as a bird and a dog
Hello And welcome once again to a
Worldwide night. What's the word? I'm looking for?
This is this is this is a mad thing because this one right?
This is inside. This is literally on either side of the world. Hmm, and you know the craziness of it wrong
Hmm, if someone had told
our forefathers this, that we'd be having a conversation like, like, sort of like a
tea like satellite like this, yeah, people would have called you crazy, bro.
Yeah, they would have done. They would have done. Yeah.
And look at us now. You're in your dad is by the way, a very canny suite. That's a nice
looking you've been upgraded. Nice Um, yes. All right.
In New Zealand during that, right? You're, you're I could, I mean, I'm in Auckland. Yeah. I'm in
Auckland. Let's just get this out of the way quickly. All right. Okay. Because should we talk
about what happened earlier today for me last night? So yeah, you dropped a clanger. Yeah. So,
so what happened was you and I read a chat and you were like
Let's do the podcast 8 a.m. My time
I said I said it you text me. I said bro. Can you do a aim tomorrow morning?
I was like, of course I can get up early on a Sunday. I do anything for this podcast. Well
This is we always do a dayam Sunday, so let's stop.
Yeah, so I'm trying to make it, by the way,
at 8pm for me, so right smack bang in the middle
of dinnertime.
So I'm telling-
Who's, is it, oh you're in New Zealand,
you're not in Australia.
Yeah, so I've not been drinking, right?
I've not got a great, I'm thinking about,
I'm probably gonna knock it on the head to be honest with you.
I haven't been drinking very much till.
So we walk around Auckland, go into this bar and, um,
Martin goes, let's just have a beer.
Right.
So we have like one beer, me, Graz and Martin.
I can tell you now, I bet those beers in Auckland are ice cold, baby.
I bet they are nice and cold.
Yeah.
I mean, look, I wouldn't say the temperature was something I it
wasn't so different I'd comment on it as we felt like the killer can I just ask
you can I ask you when you said that first sit did you go no I know because I
do want Martin and Graz's sort of still like me so I didn't do that. Oh that's crisp, that's crisp as hell. Yeah anyway. That's crisp as heck.
Yeah yeah okay so we had a couple of beers and I think because of, you're all right there,
elbow slipped off your knee didn't it? Yeah no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no
I've usually got a little thing that I can lean on when I'm listening to but I've had to put a box
I've usually got a little thing that I can lean on when I'm listening to you, but I've had to put a box.
Yeah, because we're recording at Tamiya, I'm in the kitchen.
It's very dark because Grace is sleeping.
Anyway, this is another story.
Grace is sleeping all over the place.
Anyway, I digress.
Hit me, hit me, hit me.
So anyway, I have a couple of beers and immediately sort of beer rom comes out.
The two guys that I met there,
who were like two young farmers from Britain
who were over in New Zealand, they're about to go to Disney.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, hold on, hold on.
So you've got more companies that scratch you,
mine, and- No, no, they're not with us.
They just happened to have been in the bar
and like came over to say hello, right?
And now by this time you're twisted, you're drunk,
you're okay. Well, yeah, yeah.
I love this story.
I love, this is worth recording it late.
So then, a guy called George, who was the sound tech on the Kevin Bridges tour I did
and now moved over to New Zealand, he came to the bar as well, right?
So what coincidentally?
No, no, no, he graps him up, right?
So we're at this bar.
I've had a couple of beers.
You're five handed now, by the way. You're five handed. No, but've had a couple of beers. You're five handed down by the way.
You're five handed.
No, but these guys, the other guys are.
No, you're six handed.
No, no.
Okay.
These guys aren't with us.
Also the other thing, just for clarity,
everybody at the table has two hands.
So, so anyway, so.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Don't do this.
What?
You know what it means.
When you, in a mob of people, you call like each person.
So yeah, me, it says me, you, Graz, Kevin, Dennis,
we all go out, right?
We're five handed.
Why is that?
Why is that a thing?
It's what we say.
It's a South London term.
Or East London, I don't know, it's a London term.
How many have, yeah.
Oh, we were out there, but we're about 10 handed.
Well, it's not a lot.
You don't count everyone's, you're 20 handed. How many of you 10? Oh, we were out there, we were about 10-handed. We don't count everyone's, you know, 20-handed.
How many of you? 10, because we count everyone twice,
because we've got two, you know, it's...
Listen, it's not made its way to Crawley yet, okay?
So, I guess...
We'll do probably in about 2085.
Yeah, something like that.
Thankfully, we'll be long gone,
although there will still be episodes of this dogshit
floating around the internet somewhere.
Anyway, so... He anyway, so he called it
He called it. They called it so I am
The first time I realized I was drunk is when I confidently said to George
This guy I've just met this guy George you got to meet him. He's a great guy
This is Josh, and he goes I don't go Josh
This is George, and he goes Joe and then I went no
No, but not white. So I then go
No, it's George and he goes no Joe and I go no his name's George and he goes no my name's Joe and then I went
This is this is so embarrassing
Question yeah, can I ask you question? Oh, did you have your arm around either of them?
It's no what I would say Can I ask you a question? Can I ask you a question? Did you have your arm around either of them at this time?
No, what I would say is...
Come on, come on, come on.
How could you introduce someone without an arm around?
Right, listen, I might have had my hand on Jo's back, alright?
Sharpie the fucking two-parts, how you doing mate?
You alright? No, no.
This is my mate, mate. He's from Blyth.
No, no, from Bridges.
He did the Bridges stuff.
Shush, shush, shush.
Don't worry about your name, mate.
That's inadequate.
Nah, serious.
This keeps him going a long way back, mate.
Absolutely charged on Superstition Blago.
Absolutely dug myself in, right?
Oh, hold up, hold up, hold up.
That's the streets, mate.
They're playing the streets. Don't you know?
When I was a kid, this is a big issue. They want to pull you yeah
Oh my gosh, you're really fit. You're fit, but my goodness don't you know, it's proper English
I'm surprised that you know, I've got that
Give me some up a bit. Hey, mate, I think you've had enough.
I think two's enough for your big fella, mate.
God, anyway.
He's up there, fella.
So we've been at the bar for like...
Take you down a notch.
We've been at the bar for like...
Christ, how many beers has he had?
He said, just the two pints.
God, that's so bad.
So we're there for about two, maybe an hour and a half two hours
maybe I had three points I can't remember anyway the point is that's
there anyway we walked back to the hotel you know just feeling good and I walk
into my room and I sit down on my bed for a little bit nothing you dancing
better than was it no no Do you know what, Tom?
I did, there was a bit of a bop to it.
I mean, I was a bit, anyway,
Oh, love this.
We get back to the hotel.
I come into the room and I sit down on the bed for a bit
and just have a look at my phone.
And Graz Martin and I have arranged to meet up
a couple of hours later for dinner
and I said to him I'm gonna have dinner early so I can do the pod with Tom.
Anyway, I sort of closed my eyes for a second, opened them and it's half past
ten at night and I wake up to a series of texts from you sat at your laptop
ready for the podcast to start. Wake up to serious.
Yeah, I had been sat on my laptop by this point. It was two hours later.
No, listen, it would be desperation even beyond Tom Davis's levels
to be sat on the laptop for two hours.
You've got you've got you've got to get the podcast done.
So fingers crossed you're done.
You take great swimming.
Don't worry about my weekend.
I'll just say he'll be here. He'll be here. He's your legend, don't worry about my weekend. I'll just sit here, he'll be here,
he'll be here, he's your legend, the geisha.
I can't imagine he's just had three parts
and he's just fucking KO'd, mate.
Graps is texting, asking when we're going for dinner.
Both Martin and I have tapped out.
Martin's gone missing as well.
How many points did Martin hit?
Same as me.
So anyway, apologies, I guess is what I'm saying. This is the same. Let me just say a number one. I was very worried about you. Yeah, right
Because at this point, you know in you because you are I will say this it's very seldom. It's pretty only happened
Twice thrice before the end of so much has happened with either of us
Right and I it's happened with me and you so I was worried usually you are very I'd say you
are you know your tech messages aren't always like like abundantly sort of like
word for but you know you do often you will text back with that yeah or no or
whatever so I was worried I was like oh my my god, I hope he's okay. So I would say worry that Katherine was
he is a grown man and
He's been a lot more dead. I was we were going for a walk with grace and I was like
I hope Romesh is okay and gracious like I think we get to a point where grace will start sort of
Asking why you are so worried about your friends
Just sitting in Gaels over the course I'm
going oh no for me yeah yeah yeah I will say this as well by the way I will say
this it's this so this is slightly my fault so this is why I'm not gonna go
too hard on you. How is it your fault? Because we're meant to be in the studio on the
Monday before you left yeah right we're gonna go in the studio and we're gonna record
three episodes. Yes. In the studio. We couldn't do that because something else
came up on my part and you were very gracious in letting me go and turn around
saying let you got to do what you gotta do. So in that part that's why I can't
blame you because we'd have had three recorded so I'm gonna be think about it
I want to take this on me. No but it it was my fault. It was my fault I woke up listen. Listen, yeah, the main thing is you know what?
We can sit here we can throw blame you can throw mud the best thing in the world is it's I'm sitting here
just staring at a guy that absolutely adoring love who is full of stories of world travel and
Yeah, I did you know in a way, you know, like I'm living my life a little bit through it
Do you want my weekend has been potty you know, like, I'm living my life a little bit through it.
My weekend has been potty training.
That's what I'm doing right now.
It's been potty training.
It's insane.
And does Grace think you're making progress?
Yes, yeah, I've only shat myself three times this weekend.
I was listening to the What's Up Set You Now podcast,
Sean Walsh and Paul McCaffrey, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And this is an old episode of that and they were talking about
Wiping your ass
I'm sure we've talked about this before but let me just get clarification. Do you stand or sit?
I'm mixed up if I'm honest, right? So did like
I'm hoping no one's eating or doing anything.
Just my sit-downing or sitting will be down
to the texture of what I've done.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
No, but it's-
Oh my God.
I don't wanna get to it, no, but-
Why the fuck did you say that out loud?
What the fuck?
That'll be discussed.
No, I'm just gonna say that sometimes in a situation like, sometimes you're doing gartham, sometimes you need a shovel, sometimes you need a piece of wood.
Oh my god.
Oh my god.
It's down to the landscape in which you're working.
Okay, fuck me.
Fucking hell, it's eight o'clock in the morning here.
I'm supposed to be having breakfast after this.
No, but you know what I'm saying. Look, how can you...
I know what you're saying. Yeah, that's the problem. I do know what you're saying. I don't
want to fucking hear it. It's disgusting. I'm an honest guy. I'm not going to fuck
about these people. They listen. They show some faith in us. We can't just go,
oh yeah, I was sick. That'd be disingenuous. That's not the guy I want to be.
All right, fine. Anyway, the point is, is that I had no idea how divisive it was because Eddie Brimson was on there, he sits, McCaffrey stands
which is fine. McCaffrey's a stander all day long. Yeah I struggle with Short.
He's actually announced that he's switched. What he's not
to standing? No he's gone from standing to sitting. Right. Anyway so last night I wake up at 11
1030 11 o'clock. I'm sorry. I've interrupted your story. You
were talking about potty training gone carry on. Sorry.
Yeah, yeah. But no, look, if I'm honest with you, potty training
has meant it's almost like we're with sort of we've just we've
had to stay indoors for nearly the whole week. We have a coffee
and you're constantly turning around to grace go to you need
a way you need away. And we haven't fed in do you need a poo?
so about 10 o'clock this morning, she did a poo in her knickers and
How come you hadn't fed in?
We've been so conscious and she's been great with it to go for using a party for way. I would say she's been amazing
Yeah, absolutely. I mean it's insane to say how proud I am of her. But it's up there with watching the England team this summer.
Like, you know, her using a pot here every time I'm literally, I've got tears in my eyes.
Yeah. It's it's an amazing thing to see.
Do you think that's something she needs to see?
You know, what's that? Well, what I'm saying is, is like.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Now it's now it's not as good.
Now she's done it over the weekend.
She's done it eight times, nine times. The first two times I'm like like, look, now it's not as good. Now she's done it over the weekend. She's done it eight times, nine times.
The first two times, I'm like, wow.
Oh my God.
And then I just had to sort of like, just walk away,
just sort of, you know.
Because you're worried that she wasn't going to get it.
Is that what you're saying?
No, no, more that you've got to be very careful
because you can't just go good girl, good girl,
like it's a dog.
No, but what's better is, yeah, now what you've've got to do is you got a clever girl and then start crying
It's an emotional thing. Yeah development man. No, also by the way, she's she's picking up on any word, right?
Like this is genuine. This is genuine like today. What did she do? Did she hear cat? Does she hear Catherine say tragic?
No, she had Catherine go. I'm a good get a life
also Catherine say tragic no she had Catherine go I'm a good get a life also she announced in this morning
We were putting good girls. She's a fellow the girls croissants
And she as we were walking as me Katherine were joking. Yeah
She turned my rum mesh rum mesh missing rum mesh mesh missing
And quite a few people in the queue look quite. Yeah
mesh missing and quite a few people in the queue look quite, yeah, worried.
Well, I had, my embarrassment went further on
to be honest with you because I then,
Oh wow.
I felt so, You didn't wake up then or?
No, no, no, but I felt so bad about what had happened
and I felt so bad that I'd not got in touch with Graz
and I'd missed the podcast.
I phoned Lisa.
Oh God.
Right, and I did, it's so fucking, this is so classic. Can I say, this is you to a T as well, you phoned Lisa. Right. And I did. So fucking this is so classic. Can I say this is this is you
to a T as well you phone Lisa and it's not Hey babe, it's me. Yeah. Auckland's been kind
to me fucking three beers in had a great met some fucking outlandish dudes in Auckland.
It's like you're like, Oh, I went on a mission list off in fell asleep a bit after a couple of them.
I would say in both those scenarios I sound like a c***.
But...
So I phoned Lisa, you're pretty close to the truth, I phoned Lisa and I go oh my god Lisa
I've had an absolute shocker.
I said I've had a nightmare and she goes what?
And then I told her and she went I could just hear in her voice she went okay so it's not
really an emergency is it Ron?
And what do you mean? She goes, did you say that?
I went, oh my God, oh my God, Lisa, you're not going to believe what I've done.
You're not going to believe what I've done.
So she's thinking Rom's killed someone in Auckland.
Do you know what I mean?
He sort of stood over a wall, just going, what do I do?
And then it turns out that I've just had a couple of beers and fallen asleep for too long.
And to be fair, when you text me, your texts, let me say in these six scenarios, you text me and you went,
bro, bro, I've had a fucking nightmare.
To which I went, when I read that, I was like, oh my God, what's happened here?
Is he OK?
Right.
And then you call me from, and you seldom phone people.
You are very much a voice note or text guy. You call me from and you seldom phone people. You are very much a voice, not a text guy.
You call me from New Zealand.
Yes.
And this is no joke.
It was, I went, fucking, what was she calling?
And Catherine went, well, answer it.
It must be important, it's from New Zealand.
So when I went back in and she went,
is he okay, is he all right?
Because obviously all she knows is you've gone,
brother had a fucking nightmare.
Is it, oh no, you fell asleep after a few beers
and she was like, it's hardly a nightmare.
It's a bit sad if anything.
Did Catherine say that?
Yeah, he was talking along those lines.
People on the next table laughed.
I felt guilty, okay?
Yeah, I know you do.
I woke up and had a bit of a luck song.
Mate, mate, mate, mate, mate, mate.
Your guilt and your sweetness, I was there to listen to it.
If I wanted to be here,
I was not underplaying your nightmare.
I know how you feel,
because you're a very decent human being.
Yeah.
Oh, God. This is bad. This is why I can't drink. You're gonna have to, also by the way, I wouldn't be quitting drinking on the basis if you had
three pints in Auckland.
Well it's not the best story, it's not the best story is it? I can imagine it.
You can't rock up to AA.
Can you tell your story? Hi, I'm Ramesh Ranganathan, 46 years old and I'm no longer drinking.
Okay, what happened?
What happened, bro? What happened? I'm a guy by the way, called Mark Valence. Hey, man,
Mark Valence. I've been here for 12 years. 12 years clean, man. What happened?
Well, you know, I was out in New Zealand.
Great place, man. They shot all the lawsords that have reached me this day, right?
Yeah, yeah that's right.
God, do we know each other? Because what a way to connect with me.
Absolutely hit the nail on the head there.
Yeah, no, no, no man. I love that Peter Jackson, he's done some good shit.
Yeah, so anyway, I hadn't been drinking for a little bit and,
uh, we went to a bar in Auckland. Um, this is going, yeah. Prostitutes. No, no. Um, no,
no. Um, I had a beer and, um, that led to another and another missing, you know, your 25 points
in well, actually face down in a gutter and you've, yeah, you know, you've kissed your
best friend. Well, uh, well actually one point did lead to another and then that led to another
and then we left. Okay. Okay. I get it. You've had like how many at this point three. Oh,
wow. So you went on to another bar another part another part another bar before you know it
It's five o'clock three days later, and you don't even know your name anymore. No that it no I didn't quite go down like it's
well, we went back to the hotel and
And that's where you
You decided to call in an eight ball of cocaine
No, I think it's really I think think it's, can I just say mine?
I think it's probably best that I finished.
I just finished the, I finished.
Is your name Martin or whatever?
Yeah, I can't remember either now.
That's what I mean, man.
It's not important.
Just call me Val.
Okay.
Well, look, Val.
All right.
Listen, guys, let this guy take the floor
because I think the story was going to educate us all.
This guy's got some demons in him.
Okay.
Well, I had sort of, uh, that if you don't mind me saying the way you sort
of constantly sort of reminds me of a friend of mine from back home, actually.
Really? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. What's his name? Huh? What's his name?
Tom Davis. Oh shit, man. What? The guy from Wonka. He's wonka.
Yeah. He's a cool guy. You know, you know, yeah, you know. Yeah, I did. I mean, I did pull costs. Cool,
man. Oh, yeah. Oh, you do a podcast. Yeah. Oh, sick. Yeah,
it's actually this is probably the first bit of promo I've
done for actually. But anyway, okay, man. Okay, everybody.
Quiet. Okay. Yeah, please. Yeah, everyone.
By the by the way, I'm Kevin
Just wanted to see if anyone wanted a cup of tea before Ramesh finishes his story. Well, it's not
Quite a while. Yeah, it's not actually that long a story. It would have been done had Valtorff
Not insisted on it
Kevin Kevin Kevin children give this guy a moment. He's about to break our minds
Go on brother.
Okay, well, we went back to the hotel
and we arranged to meet a couple of hours later
and then I was just sort of have dinner
and then do the podcast with Tom, who was back in the UK.
Tom Davis, yeah?
Tom Davis, so it would have been eight o'clock this time.
So I'd arranged with him and I knew that he was gonna get up
and get set up on his Sunday morning to do the podcast.
Anyway so I just sort of sat on my bed when I got in and then, well look, next thing I
know it was 10.30 at night, I'd fallen asleep.
Missed the podcast, missed dinner, sort of had a bit of a panic and I think it was around the time when, um,
I think it's probably around the time when I was then did the podcast the next
day, uh, and Tom explained to me on the podcast that even his own wife, who I
consider a friend had lost respect for me that, uh, I sort of realized maybe
this is time to just sort of walk away from it you know. And is that when you started you stopped
drinking? Yeah yeah. Can we get Ramesh a cup of tea he's just that was maybe one
of the lamest stories we've ever heard but we treat everyone here with respect.
Man that's nice bro it's quite nice in a way to see you open up like that. Yeah
yeah actually. I'm told again now. yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah your character work is
masterful but I'd figured out that you were you're back as Tom I actually felt
quite good sharing it like that you know yeah it's nice yeah it's quite actually
by the way those meetings gonna be amazing so can I just ask a question
sorry were you out at dinner sorry you were in Gaels when I called and you left
We're having breakfast I ran out of girls
It's quite cold and wet over here by the way to take the call
It was like, you know
You know like in the Suprinos when they take a really like Tony has to find like a sort of like public phone to sort of
Make a call to sort of one of his mafia colleagues
Yeah, I sort of had to run out and look for sort of some shelter because I didn't want to take the call in gales because obviously I had no idea what had happened.
Yeah so I sprint out into the rain. I didn't even take my jacket. I'm in a t-shirt with this boat.
All right yeah I mean I was like and lots of people are going fucking ice dramatic.
Yeah. I came back in I was a bit wet and I was like you know that man.
Yeah yeah well I do feel worse ah man. Yeah. Yeah, well I do feel worse for it.
Yeah.
What's the best thing about being a vegan?
Weather's good out there, I'm assuming.
You know, we've got, we've got fun.
Actually, one thing, text Lisa,
because there's thunderstorms coming in, mate.
This is how homesick I am.
I asked Lisa to send me a picture of their race dinner.
Wow.
It must be, well, I don't know,
but they haven't got to do a vegan option, I guess.
No.
With you not there.
No, that's true.
Just made Lisa's life a little bit easier.
Yeah, I mean, she was in the photo and she looked absolutely delighted, so I don't know,
I guess that's a sign.
How is Lisa getting on with that?
How often do you call her home?
Twice a day?
Tom, it's getting to the point now where I think Lisa's starting to get fed up of hearing from me. Do you mean?
I'm calling a lot and also
Maybe four times a day. Okay, that's nice. That's cute. Yeah, but also with nothing to report
Because I keep wait, basically the jet lag is doing me in and I keep waking up at 2 o'clock in the morning
Well, I mean this is this is proper jet set of life.
You essentially at the moment, you're living like Aerosmith or some shit like that.
You're literally like another town, like literally every day is a different town,
a different country. It's pretty sick, man.
I would love to sort of look into the science
of what it is that made your brain pull Aerosmith out as the reference.
I find it I find it absolutely incredible.
Like all of the things, like Jetsetter,
so your brain's gone, I've got to look for like,
a music act sort of tour all the time,
they go all over the world.
What's my go-to?
And you said Aerosmith.
What the fuck is going on?
How is that your thing?
There are big successful bad dogs. Just like that. If I think
of you as a bad Aerosmith comes to mind.
Do you know what? Can I tell you what I sort of I sort of had a
semi guess at why I said that I thought well you love your
daughter very much. Yeah, Aerosmith did that song Don't
Want To Miss A Thing which is about his daughter. One of the
best. And then I thought maybe. who's by the way Liv Tyler. Yes, absolutely right
So I was wondering if maybe what you did was you watched grace or successfully do a wee on the potty
Yeah, then it got emotional went into another room and then sort of grace
What what song what song is daddy listening? Why does dad listening to that song and crying? Oh, it's just, you know, dad feels a special connection with that song.
If I'm on a spot, it's because uncle Vomit is missing.
Yeah, but yeah, kid, here it is.
Anyway, I'm really sorry, man. I'm really sorry.
So how is the how's the rest of the tour going? Listen, listen, that this this chat potatoes and so you done with Australia now?
No, go back. No, go back. So I've done I've done three nights in
Australia did Melbourne. Then I did Brisbane, which is very
nice. Some of the family can't have a family in Brisbane. So
they came to the show is very nice to hook up with them. Then I did Canberra.
I've heard rumors of Canberra being amazing.
Canberra was great. Yeah. It's a lot quieter than Sydney and Melbourne, but the crowd,
it's got a vibe to it. Right. Yeah. The crowds were unbelievable. Unbelievable. Like it was
great man. Canberra is the one. yeah, I love the thought of Canberra. Actually, in Brisbane, somebody heckled me with you.
So I was in the middle of a story and then somebody went,
was it Tom? And I went, what? Was it Tom?
I was like, holy shit. It's a bit of a surreal experience to be in Brisbane.
Can I just say which bit of the show, by the way?
Is it the bit that everyone thinks is the...
No.
Are you still doing a bit about the eating?
Yes, but that's not the bit. Can I say it when it was?
That's usually the bit. Can I say that's the bit I've probably been
messaged most about your tour show, which you've sold hundreds of thousands of
tickets and I've probably had a good few thousand people message me going,
oh, do you know, Rob, I'm doing a bit about you eating.
Yeah.
And that's actually about me.
It's actually a bit, you won't like it.
I mean, I don't know what made her say at this point, but it's about me
talking about receiving a racist tweet.
Um, so.
Imagine if that was me, not think you're going to get caught.
Just like from my own ex account.
And I think it was just after he called me packing that we decided
to do a podcast together.
Oh, man, that's a little the fucking people of Brisbane think about me.
Was it some?
And then so then then I flew out to
flew to Auckland yesterday.
No, day before we had a day off yesterday.
But New Zealand is a beautiful. I saw Martin Teas. No, the day before, when we had a day off yesterday.
But-
New Zealand is beautiful.
I saw Martin Two Smoothes, him landing.
Yeah.
And he did a lovely, looks beautiful, man.
Yeah, it is really nice.
What was really weird, it's so surreal, man.
I walked into this bar, the bar that we walked to,
the bar where the carnage happened.
Wow, this bar's like incredible.
Yeah, and I walked past this massive group of lads
who I think are on a stag deal or birthday party or something.
And then as I walked past, one of them goes, Romesh.
And I turn around, and they all go, fucking hell, fucking hell.
It's Romesh.
And start losing their shit.
Wow.
Right? Fucking hell. One of them comes over and start losing their shit. Wow.
Right?
Fucking hell.
One of them comes over to me, this guy called Shiv.
That's a cool name by the way.
I'd like to be his friend.
That's a cool fuck off name.
He shows me the WhatsApp group for the chat for the day that they're actually out on.
Yeah.
And one of their bits of banner is that one of him in the group looks just like me and he just shows me the Whatsapp and there's loads of photos
of me running through the Whatsapp chat where they've just said I can't imagine
it was positive. But anyway like you don't go oh you're really handsome like
that guy Ramesh, you know I can't imagine that's how it went. Anyway they
just said it was something, imagine that experience that you're talking about
this British comedian that one of your mates looks like and then he fucking walks into the bar for that
But are we can you imagine that guy who looked like you then looking over like 15 minutes later?
So you absolutely smashed on to put on eyes just going cheese
The thing was is by the time we left they'd gone
Right, and I imagine they just he just looked across and he went, Oh, my god. Oh, man, he is tragic. Look at that guy. Is that is that is that the fucking
guy that you're comparing me to? Oh, god, I've got a guy, man. And you know,
actually, let's just let's just knock this on the head. You know, I'm not even
getting married anymore. I don't think I'm done. I'm really if that's the guy
just fighting his wife in tears. I'm a fucking loser. I'm a. I'm really, if that's a guy just spouting his wife in tears, just going, I'm a fucking loser.
I'm a fucking loser.
You in the background like we are saying,
I just Josh, come back, Josh.
It's fucking Joe, mate.
Anyway, they were nice lads.
Hopefully they were trying to sort of tickets for the show.
But what's the tonight? Yeah. Yeah. So how much longer you got there another week after this i've got another
two weeks bro what i'm i'm in new zealand for another three nights then i go to adelaide i mean
adelaide for two nights then i'm in sydney for three nights and then that doesn't add up to four
i'm doing perth as well anyway i've got another got another two weeks, just under two weeks. Wow, G. I know. I know. Wow, man. And then you go to Dubai. Yeah,
it's an amazing thing, man. And like, I hope you do it at some point. I think you could
easily like do some international. Can we just repeat? Let me just try and sell some
tickets in the UK. No, no, no, but based on what, you know, there's so many Wolf and Al fans out here, I think.
And also fucking Wonka, mate.
Do you know what I mean?
You're in Wonka.
Yeah, but yeah.
Look, it's one thing, like, going to fucking Dublin and realising you've only sold a handful
of tickets.
It's a big old fucking, it's a big old shitball in your mouth
yeah sitting on the other side of the world having to text flow going hey it's amazing
i can't believe i'm in auckland um how so so we've got eight people coming this evening
yeah we chopped tom it's uh fly listen we just decided it'd probably be easy if you just go
downstairs and do the gig in the hotel just in reception right so yeah yeah sorry um robin
obviously was saying that you could sell loads of tickets.
There's not enough money to fly you and Gratz back from Auckland to England on the money
you've earned. So you're both going to have to get proper jobs while you're out there.
Just to hear about Tom and Gratz working the farm in Auckland for a couple of months.
Yeah, they've got to get a full coming back.
Basically Gratz end up as extras on the New Lord of the Rings.
So the point I was trying to make was,
I love doing the shows out here,
but as I get older, my homesickness gets,
it just gets worse and worse.
That's what I worry about.
Because, let me say, by the way,
Australians, New Zealanders, absolutely epic, right?
They're incredible.
I can't even imagine what the crowds are like.
Genuinely speaking.
The crowds are, genuinely, every show so far, I've walked off going, you know, I don't, I'm not,
I've just walked off going, I know this sounds wanky, I can't, I can't believe, I can't believe
I get to do this, do you know what I mean? It's like what an amazing fucking thing.
What an amazing thing, man. And like, they're just so up for it and you sort of go like that,
they're just so up for it and you sort of go like that. You know, I always get a bit wary of being too earnest,
but the truth of it is,
is like being this far away from home
and having crowds sort of responding to shows
the way they do, it's an amazing,
like I feel so lucky, man.
It's an amazing thing.
It really is.
So thank you to everyone that's come out so far.
It's been, it's been unbelievable.
And also, can I also take this opportunity, segue,
God, I'm a good presenter.
Thank you to everyone that's bought tickets
for the Christmas fun night of fun festivities and fun.
Because I think we sold out.
Sold out very quickly.
Yeah, we all sold out.
Sort of maybe you should have thought.
I was slightly confused about it
because the WhatsApp was like, it sold out.
And then about two seconds
I was like let's do another post because there's more seats being found
I was like five seats at the back
Managing our mental expectations of this show. Yeah, but
Just tell him it's sold out ten seats at a time and then we
Put the post up before I realized that actually I had sold out and then I've got quite a lot of sort of yeah
I think it's
I'm genuinely looking forward to this. It's gonna be a bang overnight. It's a bigger show yet Right the way that we're gonna do it is different. We're we're ramping things up a bit
Well, my my into smooth very actually this gives me an opportunity to ask you on the public. This is very exciting by the way
Too smooth. Obviously you've done lots of performances with you. I've just done the one. Yeah, Martin is, yeah, he loves you and he wants to know what sort of music you want. Because
obviously normally it's just hip-hop when he does it with me. I want to mix it up. I want a little
bit of a Christmas vibe. I've got a song. I want to get a little Christmas vibes. I'll chat with,
some little Christmas vibes. I'll chat with, I like some big little big bangers as well in the room. Yeah, some ballad, ballad-y bangers.
Okay. I mean, you've used, you've gone all over the fucking place there, but I'll leave
that for you to discuss with Martin.
I'm very eclectic when it comes to my music.
Yeah, I'm not gonna go, yeah, but you can't be eclectic in one sentence describing the same song
But
He wants some Christmasy ballad II big bangers can you can you get on that place
Little bit more I care. It would be nice. Yeah
Christmas song do you think? No, no, no, no, no, no.
What's your favourite?
Fairytale of New York.
Oh, you know what would be amazing?
If me and you sang Fairytale of New York.
No, thank you.
Oh, man, that'd be amazing.
No, thank you.
No, thank you.
No, let me just, let me just, let me just.
You are at Sheba Galen right now,
the way you're living your life.
You are at Sheba Gowron right now, the way you're living your life.
It was Christmas Eve in Auckland.
I went to a dive bar and had three pints.
What? Three pints?
Thank you so much, for the support tickets. I did a corporate the other day and this is, I think I talked about this on your Radio 2 show,
but it's something I'm really worried about. So I've done another one subsequently since.
When I'm reading from like on a lector from...
You know when they have it up in the glass in front of you is oh yeah from a lot of
you right I am starting to do this and gesturing with my hands a lot because
usually I've got a mic in my hands as you know right although it would be one
idea for comics all of a sudden I'm feeling my hands I don't know what to do
them so I'm starting to gesture with my hands as I'm reading and it's very very worried it's very Trump-esque. Tom we are honestly cut from the same cloth man. The other day I put a clip up
of me on this Australian show the Cheap Seats and it was like I think I just got
off the plane that morning so I was a bit spun out but I I watched a clip of
the thing and like they sent me a few clips. I'm
fucking doing this. I'm like, my hands man are so Trumpy.
But I don't do it when we're talking right there.
I know it's so weird. It's on the thing. I was like this and like doing it. And I've
been doing this a lot by the way. This, you know, the harmonica accordion.
Yeah, yeah.
Not harmonica.
I'm doing genuine Trump like this.
Yeah. So I've been doing it trump like this yeah so i've been
doing it to take the piss because i've been following the american election quite closely
because i find like trump he just his press conference is absolutely hilarious but like
i've been i've been doing that to take the i'll be i'll be like i've been doing trump impressions
we're gonna have dinner now great spring rolls really great spring vegetables, that's a great impression, by the way.
And now it's carried into my fucking I'm doing it all the
time. Like,
I'm not even doing impressions of him. And I'm doing that.
No, but I've done it so much. It's seeped into my general
Yeah, but you see it in like, mine's come from another place.
It's very like, disconcerting.
Yeah, by the way, I shout out the construction awards that I did. A lot of fun.
Was that part of the day?
No, no, no, no, but they did. They were very, very nice. But
then they said to me, oh, we've got an executive. I'll put a
picture up of this. And I think people think I was joking, but
they took me to what they said was the executive green room. And
it was literally a storeroom next to the kitchen. And I made
a joke with the guy. I said, Oh, is it any chance here? And obviously, there was loads
that I can sit on. And he went, Yeah, I said, Oh, I forgot to sit on. He went, Oh, no, they
can't sit on them. What? So I had to live. Yeah, he was like, why get them down to? Because
they'd stack them all. He was like, I was I was like how long so was there for a half an hour how to leave?
I was like this is insane. I was right into the kitchen as well
I was like, okay, it's just getting a guy
Do you get how I get very anxious before these things right my mouth just dries up. Yeah, so if I don't have like a
Mount a good sort of like bit of water before I go on
I just dry mouth and that you know yourself if you dry mouth in the open minute, you're fucked. The whole thing's fucked.
Difficult. And you've got donkey breath for the whole evening. So when they come up to get a
water, you're conscious of that.
Look, my breath doesn't go there. When they come up to get a water, your breath smells,
that's one thing. But that first minute, if you've got dry mouth, it's awful. The feeling.
Yeah. So I'm like, in my head, I'm like, okay, like... And the guy was like, I said,
I'll just get one from the kitchen. And he went, oh, you can't have that water.
So I said, oh cool, is there anywhere?
And he was like, he sighed and he sort of went off looking.
And I could see bottles of water literally there.
But I wasn't allowed those bottles
because I was just presenting.
I was just saying to Troye.
What is this corporate?
They normally really look after it.
It's like almost embarrassing.
They had looks on, can I say that?
They put on a nice hotel room
This is that I was sitting in because you get for that. I've got there very early side like two or three hours
Yeah, this was literally the run-up to going on
And they they wanted to sort of like put and he said I will keep you as a bit
I was just surprised of all that you're here. So well, my name's in the program
So I mean spelt wrong spelled like the Everton player some Davies
Everyone seems to fucking find it insane Well, my name's in the program, so it won't be. Spelt wrong, spelt like the Everton player, Tom Davies.
Everyone seems to fucking find it insane.
The amount of times I go to things,
or I get written about, or someone will email my agent,
and go, oh, you know, we really love Tom Davies.
He's such a good guy.
Is there any chance he can come on this podcast?
You're like, well, get my fucking name right for us, though.
There's no way you'll hear it.
You'll be that big of a fan.
It must be a nightmare, people mispronouncing
and getting your name wrong.
I can't imagine what that's like
I
Know I do kick off when people call you Ramesh
I get a lot of people message me and go I really love Ramesh and I said well, yeah, I don't know the Ramesh
So oh no, I get spiking it annoys me. It does. It's such a simple thing. I was a corporate
I don't do them very often. You're a big deal there in the corporate world.
No I'm not.
I'm not.
Mate, come on. You don't do them that often so when you do it they've got to be big, right?
Mate, I know there was one recently that you did that was fucking a big, big, big, big number.
Mate, what do you mean it was a white? Why are you trying to check? Wait, look, I'm doing some nice ones.
Shout out the construction awards, the day awards and the night awards
done in both the last two weeks.
There's some nice fucking ground being made.
Yeah, but I am very much like Rocky Balboa in the world of car.
I'm really just waiting for my title shot.
That was my big awards.
I did. I did one.
And they put in the...
You've done the BAFTAs.
That's the biggest corporate in the world
You've only got the Oscars and you've done you've completed all fucking corporates
I did one and I was just doing 20 minutes
I think is up 15 minutes to stand up and then do the awards, right? Yeah, so they put away
I love the award bit. That's my favorite. Yeah. Yeah, once you've done the award
That's an amazing thing life change it for people. I don't think it's, yeah.
I mean, it's good.
I do sometimes think when you're doing those awards,
you do think, isn't it great to be handing out awards
in an industry that doesn't, you know,
that's like their night of recognition.
You and I exist in an industry
that's constantly making up fucking awards
to give to itself, do you know what I mean?
It's just like nonstop.
Yeah, but that's what I think is a,
like I looked at it, like there was a kid the other day right she picked up an award at
construction awards right. Yeah. I looked at her she's 19 but if she's a day right she gets an
award right. Yeah. And I just looked at her and think like I'm a very small part of this tiny
little part of this that the incredible thing that she's done to get this award but I was like this
is an amazing moment in her life she will look
back and remember this this moment at the moment. Yeah yeah I'm not even gonna be
you know I'm not even remotely cynical about that I think it's a great thing
man. Yeah it's a nice thing. So they put me in this room and they had like a nice
selection of snacks and stuff like that and the woman came in and
The the book or whoever's looking after me and she said do you want anything else and I said no, I'm all right
Thanks. I was like about an hour and an hour before they'd got me down into the room
And then every 10 minutes she kept coming. She goes do you need anything? She's really sweet
No way, it's gonna get you even and I said no more. I'm all right. Thank you
And then she goes oh you're very you're very low maintenance aren't you and I was I don't And I said, No, I'm all right. I'm all right. Thank you. And then she goes, Oh, you're very, you're very low maintenance, aren't you? And I was,
I don't think I was because there's loads of drinks and food in there. I don't know what
else I could have possibly needed. And then I said to her, what makes you say that? Because
I'm just sitting here like, you know, it's there's like, I said, you got all this stuff
out. She goes, Oh, well, the guy that we did, we had to do it last. And I'll name him, but
JT, can you bleep it out? Right? She goes, the guy that we had to do it last, and I'll name him, but JT, can you bleep it
out, right?
Because the guy that we had doing it last year asked for, this is incredible, by the
way, right?
Before he went on to do his corporate, in that room that I was in, on his demands, full
body massage.
What?
Full body massage.
From a specific masseur. So for half an hour before the show.
I genuinely thought you were going to say we asked for some warm milk. Please tell me
who this was. I can tell you Tom, that person was ****.
Oh yes, again not what I expected. I had a similar thing actually with it being, the person being demanding and full on and quite crazy.
We both know this person more, so I won't name them.
People were saying that he was a very sort of, yeah.
And he was like, by the way, everyone spoke very highly
of how he orchestrated the whole evening.
They said he was incredible.
But yeah, he's, yeah, I'm just always like,
by the way, it's a rule at corporates, by the way, and it's, it's, it's just as old as time itself,
that whatever corporate you do, the person who did last year was absolutely brilliant.
That is always. Oh, yeah. Yeah.
Like one time, why don't they rebook people, by the way, I know, but I think they do sometimes,
but sometimes they're not available.
I went and did one and they were just constantly
going on to me about, they were just very worried
about how I was gonna do it.
This is a few years ago, right?
And I think it's just cause like they booked me,
but then were worried that I was gonna be me basically,
which is like not positive enough.
I get, not that I'm not positive,
but you know, people think that I'm just like low key or whatever low energy and so she's getting me. Oh, we had we had Joel Domit do it last year and he was so
Yeah, he's energy Joe. I saw you can you could keep his name in I saw a job by the way
ABC the other day doing stand-up. Yeah, he was fucking for he blew my mind. He was amazing
Stand up. Yeah, he was fucking for he blew my mind. He was amazing. He was incredible like banging stuff
Shout out Joe very very very good. Okay, great. They go with that. So, you know, we talked about awards in the industry They don't come higher than that
You enjoy we've enjoyed started off a very similar time we've reminiscing about you know
Praying in front of five people in East London and there he is. He's a good guy. He's one of the good guys. Yeah,
I've got nothing bad to say about him. I don't think anyone has. I'd find it obscene if anyone
had anything bad to say about Joe. He's a sweet soul. He is the definition of being a sweet soul.
Yeah, he is. Absolutely. I've got a lot of time for him. Here's some icing, put a cherry on top.
You know what you got there? You got a slice of cake that tastes delicious okay what what was
why was that the conclusion to that? I don't know it just felt right. Okay fair enough.
Um anyway so they were going to me, Oh, you
know, Joe was so good, so positive. And at one point, I
actually I would never do this now because now I'm sort of
used to the way that people sort of say these things and you kind
of have to let it wash over you.
I've already just got into this. So this is I'm hitting this.
This is good to hear.
So you basically have to be, you know, you have to kind of just
go, I'm going to go and do the job and people will say things to you that will, if you're not right, mentally will freak you out a little bit.
Like the last person is really great.
You know, and people say things like, we wanted him to do it this year, but we couldn't get him.
But thanks for doing it.
You know, like stuff like that.
And if you're in a bad place or if you're not ready for that sort of shit, it can fuck you up.
But, you know, at the end of the day, you're getting paid too much money for what you're doing so you can't
really get to you but um I did but at that time I was a bit more sensitive and
I just said do you think it was a mistake possibly to book me then and
And it just got very awkward. And you know when as soon as you say something, you go, why did I say that?
I've told you the story about the woman that just had a go at me, haven't I?
I must have told this story.
I'll tell you very quickly.
So I was a surprise guest for a corporate. And so I had to go through the back of this story. I'll tell you really quickly. So I was a surprise guest for a corporate and what so I had
to go through the back of this hotel they put me in this room and then they were going to take me
through the back. Oh no I think you have yeah I think you have said this but let's go through it
anyway. So the woman came to get me and as we're going through the back of the hotel we get into
the lift and she's briefing me about it and then she just goes to me um can I ask you a question
and I go yeah of course she goes do you actually you a question? And I go, yeah, of course.
She goes, do you actually want to be here?
And I go, what?
And she goes, do you actually want to be here?
And I said, sorry.
Uh, yeah, why?
She goes, just cause I'm briefing you and you'd look like you, you couldn't care
less about being here at this event.
And I, and I just had to go, look, I'm really sorry.
That is just, um, that is just how I present like that's how I come across yeah it is basically
just my face and I am happy to be here but I'm sorry like you know and she was that was
it then she fucking hated me went down to a thing discovered it was a it was a themed
event Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory and I. And I was being, yeah. And I was going to be brought out by 10 umpalumpas.
Oh, wow.
So I came out to dun dun dun dun dun dun dun with a bunch of umpalumpas in front of me.
And then I went to the thing.
Before I went on, she went, are you going to do the stuff that you normally do?
All that sweary sort of stuff that you normally do.
And I go, sorry, what?
She goes, you just, you know, like you just use swear loads, don't you? And she goes, that's kind of your thing. Is that what you're going to do the stuff that you normally do, all that sweary sort of stuff that you normally do. And I go, sorry, what? She goes, you just, you know,
like you just use swear loads, don't you?
And she goes, that's kind of your thing.
Is that what you're gonna do?
And I went, well, I don't have to.
I said, I can do whatever.
And she goes, well, you know,
what did she do?
I don't know.
I don't know.
No, I tell you what.
I've heard this story.
I've heard this story.
You've told me this in a pub
when you've had about three pints, right? No,, right? I know you've told it on the podcast before, but every time I hear it,
I'm like, why did she book you? It's such a almost like gaslighty thing. I get the doubt
face thing. Fair enough. She'd have a buy on that, but then don't turn around and say...
It's understandable.
Yeah. No, no, no. But I get like, she thinks you're not impressed, you're not into something.
I sometimes think that when we're walking
down the street together,
you'd rather be anywhere else but with me.
But, and I love you, we're fucking best mates, but.
That's just how I love that you've got that about you,
but why book you if you're then gonna turn around
about your material?
That's what you're gonna get.
I will say this, but number one, right,
the woman who has booked me me told me I'd almost, I could see that she was almost saying, dial it down a bit. You're too eager going out there.
These people just had dinner. They're not ready for this level of excitement.
You don't need to do a whole boxing walk on. But she said a weird thing to me. She said,
I'm, oh, material wise, can you not say the C word? And I was like,
yeah, cool. It's like a lunchtime event. That's fine. And she went,
um, and no jokes about mental health. And I was like,
I don't really do jokes about mental health. And she went, oh,
and no, no stuff like that. Sort of degraded to women.
I would make an argument that your whole act is about mental health,
to be honest.
Yeah, yeah. But, yeah, but, but, but an, but but but aside of like I'm seriously struggling with it.
Yeah, yeah, exactly. Yeah, but then she went and then no degrading jokes about women.
I was like, this feels like you might put another person that.
Do you think she'd do you think she'd seen underdog?
Oh, I don't think she had. I think this is kind of how I think things went, right?
Hi, have you got anyone to look at Andy Leach, who we love Leachy.
Great guy.
He's been very, very good to me.
He'll get me back in the world of stand-up and corporates.
But something like this happened to him.
He's been so good to you.
He was so good to you that he completely erased from your memory Tom Packman.
It's unbelievable.
He's got the fucking little light thing in Men in Black.
That's how good Andy Leach is.
So she would go, hi Andy, have you got anyone
for the construction awards?
And he's like, yeah, you know who's great.
Who'd be great?
Tom Davis?
Who?
The Everton footballer.
He's actually playing for Sheffield United now.
No, he's... I think I've seen him in stuff. He's an actor, isn't he?
Yeah, yeah, but he's also doing a bit of stand-up.
He used to be a builder, he used to be a skateboarder.
This would be perfect for him.
And if she's not bothered and she just assumes that my material...
Oh, yeah, I don't like your fucking bunch of d*** material what's the deal with all the
fucking birds in it who's struggling with any fucking mental cases in it I've
got a therapist fucking nut jobs where are all the bitches at?
Oh, no. Yeah, that's not. I was like, that's not my time. My time's very pathetic and Jean-Paul.
Right, shall we? What do you think of this episode? It's been all right, isn't it?
Sort of mainly been nice. It's been rather good, isn't it, baby. Yeah, it's nice that we've turned it straight on
and we've just gone straight for it.
And I've enjoyed it.
Mate, I spend an hour in your company,
it's enough to get me through a week.
Wow, that's a lot of big things.
That's how I look.
Actually, baby, fuck me, I'll end it like that.
Man, oh man.
It's funny, isn't it?
Where you draw your strength from.
I was looking the other day,
she was in Daffodil,
I was just packing her away for the from. I was looking the other day, I see some daffodils just packing away for the year.
Sun was going.
It's time for them to descend back into the dirt
in which they came.
Will there ever come bulbs again?
Nah, it's a different generation of bulbs down there.
But it's the sun, old friend, that keeps them strong.
Alas, the grass will grow long, I hear you say,
but the grass will only grow if the rain
shall fall and, trust me on one thing, this is England, baby, the rain's gonna fall.
And that's where the grass gets its strength.
But what about us human beings?
Well, we need a little bit of all of it.
You get out there, get your vitamin D and the sun, but if it ain't raining, baby, you
ain't gonna stay hydrated.
And the world turns turns and a poor little
boy with a runny nose runs through the streets as a cold wind blows. Wind. Do we need it? Shit. Shit
do we. Have you not seen those big mechanical things in the seafront? They're building electricity
for us and that's the future baby. But what about me? What do I need?
Well, here's my medicine baby.

about to fucking rock and roll Auckland.
20,000 people shat in his name.
And although he's got a my hangover of three pints
He's not gonna let anyone down because you know what he cares
He cares and he shares his wealth and this experience and stage
Just and so let me tell you a lot of thrown in the towel on this
So yeah Auckland take care of my dear friend and that that goes for you, Perth, Melbourne, Sydney,
or wherever he lays his cap, and I know eventually Dubai,
because he means a lot to a lot of people.
He means a lot to this big lunk looking at him
across the world, thinking, shh, feels like a coca-cola
baby, but a wink will have to do.
