Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey guys. Oh, hello. Welcome to a while for now. Welcome to the world for now. Welcome to the podcast, which is friends. It's rummash and big time, you know, their best friends till the end. Rosh, he's full of brainy ideas and Tom, he's big and goofy.
Starting point is 00:00:17 Wolf is the Tom Davis. Um, Yo, what do you want? Beak or jaws, feathers or fur, sharp teeth or feet with claws, whatever's preferred. Just kidding. Kid and every word in his songs about two grown men dressed up as a bird and a dog Dog. I'm good.
Starting point is 00:00:39 I'm good, my God. Really good to see you. It's good to see you. It's good to be in your presence. You know because you're wearing camo? Yeah. Do you have people go, all right, start talking to a floating head? That would only have, that'd be more true if I've been wearing white.
Starting point is 00:00:52 I wear a lot of camo. You do, you love a camo. I do love camo. But you get a lot of shit for it. Yeah, yeah. A lot of shit. Do you know what I wish I could wear more of is leopard print. I think you could.
Starting point is 00:01:01 Yeah, I don't know. There's not a lot. I love man stuff in like leopard. Do you know what I've got? A fur coat. What? That I haven't had the guts to wear. Fake fur, just in case pets are getting touched.
Starting point is 00:01:10 Yeah, of course there's a vegan. Peter. Completely insane if you had a real fur. It'd be crazy. What we're dealing with like a bomber jacket or a sort of? No, full three-quarter length. Wow. Blue fur.
Starting point is 00:01:22 You should wear that with no top under me. In a chain. When's your album coming out? I don't know. I've lost confidence in it, man. I'm thinking of doing an album. What's it going to be? Like a country in Westham.
Starting point is 00:01:32 Jenny am. There's a few things now that I'm like, you know what. Fuck it. Yeah. I looked at Gary Neville. As you're getting less busy. Yeah. You're finding time to do other stuff, side quests.
Starting point is 00:01:44 Side quests have now become main quest. I'm looking at a sitcom that's run out of storylines. I'm having some, that entered a place with new characters. No, I watched Gary Neville the other day talking about, he was his 50th. Yeah. And he was talking about his bucket list. So I'm thinking, there's some stuff that I've been putting off for a while that I'm going to do. So what would your country in West End?
Starting point is 00:02:04 What sort of stuff would be? It's all about heartbreak, I guess. I wish I've got a whole life load of stuff. But I try and make it a little bit more relatable. Yeah. Are you singing? Yeah. Okay. I'm going to sing, but with other, I try and try to get other people involved.
Starting point is 00:02:17 Yeah, yeah. And by the way, you know, I can't imagine there'll be any shortage of collaborators. The answer is I don't know enough people from that community. So would you go like Pais Malone, Dolly Parton? Yeah, yeah, yeah, Lucas. Beyonce did a country out, didn't you know? I'm not going to go Beyonce. Oh.
Starting point is 00:02:31 It's wrapped up. with some funny old business in the moment. Oh, I see, yeah. I don't want to release an album and have that kind of heat coming at me. You can call it baby oil. Was she at the ditty parties? Yeah, I think so, yeah. Is that true?
Starting point is 00:02:44 Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's a shame. Yeah. Because I love Beyonce, by the way. Yeah. What's your favorite Beyonce song? Who Runs the World? Good.
Starting point is 00:02:52 I like that. Yeah. No, actually, no. I like, I lie. If I was a boy, baby, it just for one day. Yeah. I love that song I'm excited about this country album
Starting point is 00:03:05 I'm really concerned Have you thought about any songs I think by the way I think you should do it Yeah I'd love us to do like a collab That would be amazing Country hip hop song
Starting point is 00:03:15 Yeah Like I'm just sort of Doing quite a sort of melancholy Quite a sweet song And you burst out of a birthday cake In your fur jacket And you just sort of like Hit some right
Starting point is 00:03:24 Yeah Like limp biscuit kind of thing Yeah Oh who would go Something like that Yeah Yeah Yeah
Starting point is 00:03:30 the only thing we're doing a country western album, like country album is do you think I should then put the American twang on? Yes. Okay. You put that on yourself. I don't do it for hip hop, no. No. But that's different.
Starting point is 00:03:44 Yeah. I think country and western with the British accents. Do you know who I want to reach out to Dermott Kennedy? You should. If he'll help me. Yeah, be good to get a block from him. He's one of my favorite artists. I love him. And he's a big wolf for now fan. He's an incredible singer.
Starting point is 00:04:00 Yeah. But yeah, so that's one of the things I'm like, okay. He's not country and western though, you know. No, no, but he's got that ilk to him. Yeah, sure. So I'm thinking whether I think, sit back, maybe I'll write a song for another episode.
Starting point is 00:04:12 I'll bring it in here. Really good idea. Yeah. Or I'll record it sort of at home. Really good idea. I'll probably somebody can play the guitar. Yeah. Could you just give me a burst of what that might sound like?
Starting point is 00:04:23 Heartbreak is the hardest thing. It's the hardest thing, oh friend. Heart break is the hottest thing It will kill you in the end Reesis knows a thing or two About great combinations Chocolate and peanut butter, obviously But there's more than one way to Reeses
Starting point is 00:04:42 From indulgent Reese's big cups with caramel To crunchy Reese's pieces and Reese's miniatures There's a delicious Rees for every mood It's the same combo you love Just with more ways to enjoy it So whether you're snacking, sharing Or just treating yourself Nothing else is Reese's.
Starting point is 00:05:06 Maybe it's more musical theater. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, I like it. Well, heartbreak is the hardest thing. It's the hardest thing, old friend. Heartbreak is the hardest thing. It'll kill you in the end. Should it be more American?
Starting point is 00:05:22 Yeah, yeah, really nice, yeah. It's quite on the nose, I'd say. What you need to be. Well, it's just, you know, obviously you're doing a song about... So what about, so, so, so... Why do you think the hardest thing? Okay, that's... The hardest thing, oh friend.
Starting point is 00:05:37 Is it heartbreak? That's the hardest thing. I'll kill you at the end. No, but what you're supposed to do, like country and western songs. Yeah. They'll give an example of other things that are hard. Okay, yeah, yeah. And then...
Starting point is 00:05:50 Opening a bag of crisis. Yeah, there you go. Carry in the bins. To open in some cell of tape when you just cut your finger and nails. Yeah. Heartbreak is the hardest. No, no, no. Okay.
Starting point is 00:06:04 Okay, okay. Skateboard in his heart, I think. I've never tried it, Bill. Skateboarding is the hardest thing. I never tried it bill. And trying to do a somersault that'll make you ill. But heartbreak is the hardest thing. It's the hardest thing, old man.
Starting point is 00:06:27 No, but I think what you do is, you list all those. This is what I think, if we're going to workshop this song. Yeah, okay. So you list all these things that are quite difficult. Yeah. And then you go, and then you sort of,
Starting point is 00:06:39 as you build up to the chorus, you go, all of those things are really hard to do, but not one of those things as hard as breaking up with you. And then. Yeah, but that's, by the way,
Starting point is 00:06:49 I sound a bit like it's a comedy album. Why? It'd be really heartfelt. Well, heartbreak is. A better girl could Claire, old friend. Claire was really nice.
Starting point is 00:06:59 Okay. She could run really fast. Can I tell you what it sounds like? It sounds like a song from Sesame Street. This is what I mean. I need someone. Okay. Look, we've got some core themes and common tropes.
Starting point is 00:07:13 Okay. Nostalgia and home. Intense focus on missing home and upbringing. So just give us a line from that. Okay. All right, all right. I had a friend called Erean Old Friend. My friend in school had a Game Boy.
Starting point is 00:07:28 He played it all day long. I couldn't afford a Game Boy. So I made one out of a box. Okay. So it's not going to rhyme. No, I couldn't think of anything. Okay. Okay.
Starting point is 00:07:41 What could rhyme is strong? Long, Pong, dong. Yeah. What was the word I use? I had a friend, I had a friend gone Neil. School I had a friend gone Neil. You had a game boy who played it all day long. I couldn't afford a game boy, so I had to play with my dong.
Starting point is 00:08:12 Oh, God, it was such a long walk for that. And you were sort of struggling to say it because you were finding it so funny. No, the funny thing is the fourth... Is everything... By the way, is every song going to start, I had a friend called? No, this is the song I'm working on. It's the same song.
Starting point is 00:08:30 All right. Heartbreak and drinking. Okay, heartbreak and drinking. I had a friend... I had a friend called Robbie. He drank all day long. Okay, this doesn't... I had a friend go Robbie.
Starting point is 00:08:55 He used to drink a lot. He used to drink stalo a twas. you should drink it oh god okay all right I think that's enough we don't need to do
Starting point is 00:09:17 any one of those yeah I think it's good so that's one of the things I'm really looking at dance so anyone who can help me at all yeah
Starting point is 00:09:22 like people are in a band uh you know lyric wise I think I'm sort of nearly there yeah um he's got the lyrics for every song
Starting point is 00:09:30 on the album I think the album should be called I had a friend yeah I don't think you can call it anything else but that yeah and then it's different
Starting point is 00:09:39 you had a friends but they all do different So that's one of the things. Yeah. Another one that we've been texting about, I'm thinking like, I've been really putting off tattoos for a while. Yeah. I'm now in a place.
Starting point is 00:09:56 I've booked one to be done. Have you? Yeah. Why haven't you booked with my guy? I'm going to book with your guy as well. Okay. What are you getting done? Marcus, friend of the show, good guy Marcus.
Starting point is 00:10:07 I'm having my mount rush more of comedians put on my calf. Okay. So do you need me to send you a photo? I was actually genuinely. You're going to do it from memory? All joking aside. You know that one you used to have. have a view.
Starting point is 00:10:16 Like the cartoon sort of like, it was like the face with the eyes and the glasses and the hair. It was like you had caps. Yeah, yeah. I was, I was thinking of getting that somewhere on my body. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:10:26 Here's a thing. Grace drew a picture on my leg the other day. Yeah. Of what? It's just a little face and I, of a cat. Yeah. I took a picture of it.
Starting point is 00:10:34 You know, I've got Charlie's signature on it. Yeah, I'm going to do that and I want to have a friend. And then I want something designed for my shoulder. That's great idea. And then I want a wolf for now one. This is,
Starting point is 00:10:44 so this is what we're, we are, getting wolf and our tattoos, aren't we? John's getting one as well. We haven't discussed it with him. John, you know, JT's getting one as well, isn't he? JT should get one. And Ben is a tramp stamp. Yeah. On his back.
Starting point is 00:10:56 Just above his ass, is where his ass crass starts up. So every time he's on holiday, because he wears that big gold chain on all of it. Yeah, he loves it, didn't it? Open shirt, big gold chain. I had a friend Oh, Ben, Ben sweet green.
Starting point is 00:11:12 Oh, that's it. I did have another. It was just that when people, do that, it's normally because they've got an idea. Yeah, but I went to, I've got, yeah. And a friend, I've been, you know, wore a shirt
Starting point is 00:11:24 undone. I've got, it's quite difficult. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's quite harder in the thing, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, so we're going to get wolf in our tattoos. What else is on your bucket list? Learning to drive. Right.
Starting point is 00:11:35 And that's inspired by Theo. Since you mentioned Theo, learning to drive. Yeah. I'm like, damn, I've got to do this. Yeah, yeah. So, but you know what, I've contacted a few places. and I want to do the intense course
Starting point is 00:11:48 It's the least safe way to do that Yeah yeah yeah but that's sort of I think going forward There's kind of the driver I want to be I'm sort of looking to be I'm kind of should be sad If I'm killed in a car crash Wouldn't it years later?
Starting point is 00:12:01 I think even if you hadn't said it It'd be sad if you died in a car crash I don't think people would go I did hear Tom Davis died in a car crash It doesn't sound that sad Yeah Tell you what is sad He talked about it on the podcast
Starting point is 00:12:11 Yeah Oh He wrote that song Well now it feels like I had a friend God Tom, old friend. Learning to drive. A car.
Starting point is 00:12:19 Little did Thomas know. He was not long to stay alive. Because he died in that car crash. Body turned to ash. He died in that car crash. Outbreak is, I don't know, friend. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:38 So learning to drive is one. It's really hard to drive and find a car that's got enough leg room to drive in. Yeah. So when you're looking for a driving instructor, do you have to specify? Yeah, I've got to say, yeah, because most cars that people learn to driving are quite, by nature, small ones. So do you own a car? Yeah, Catherine's got a car.
Starting point is 00:12:55 Okay, so have you tried to get behind the steering wheel of that? Yeah, but yeah, that's like a bit of a bigger car. Right, okay, fine. So it's like, I'm just trying to find one. So I don't know if there's wolf and our friend, people out there, anyone knows anyone who's got a slightly sort of elongated sort of car that, you know, I'll be able to. What are you talking about? So what? You need a hearse.
Starting point is 00:13:17 No, but you need a car that's not like a fucking small car. Could you learn in Catherine's car? Because no, you need the dual pedals, didn't you? Right. So get a driving. There must be people that do driving. I've looked and I can't find one who does an intense course. For your size?
Starting point is 00:13:30 Yeah. Okay, fine. If there's anybody out there that does a driving course for like freaks, Wolffell pod at gmail.com. Yeah. Tom wants to learn to drive and he doesn't want to spend ages. okay he's waited 47 years and now he wants to get it done quickly
Starting point is 00:13:49 yeah okay I think also it's just time wise when you're busy you just think no I get it you want to make this out and like yeah two weeks I understand yeah how long does intensive driving you do it a week or two a week so every day for a week you do it and then you do a driving test yeah eight hour shifts mate okay had a friend that was learning to drive
Starting point is 00:14:08 wanted to do it intense that's it He learned to drive in a long old, a long old Mercedes-Benz. There you go. Nothing was long enough, long enough for his legs. So he had to barrel and beg old friend, he had to be a bag. Okay, that was, that was. Yeah, to borrow and steal.
Starting point is 00:14:36 Yeah, no, you were trying to make it scan, so he just developed to stutter. It's fair, it's a tactic. Anyway, Wolfapod at gmoh.com, we'd love to hear from you. Here's a weird situation that I'm in. I don't have any bucket list. But you've done so much stuff. No, that's not true. You've travelled the world.
Starting point is 00:14:51 That's another one for me. I've not travelled enough. That sounded like I'm doing a flex. What I'm saying... Well, yeah, because you went like that. I haven't got any bucket lists. I didn't do it like that. You went...
Starting point is 00:15:02 I haven't got any bucket list. Is the impression got a lisp now? No. It's just how you sort of like sexually put your tongue back in your mouth. Look, what can I say? I don't have anything left to achieve. Look, you must have things No, I don't
Starting point is 00:15:18 You have nothing left No So now I'm thinking like What am I doing What's the point of me? You've got to What is the point There's loads of point in you
Starting point is 00:15:25 No but what I mean is You know You smell nice Yeah but that's not My bucket list can't be Continue to smell nice No but you've got to look at something Right
Starting point is 00:15:33 Okay like Like a big mountain I'm doing that with a few friends When? I'm doing a three peaks challenge We were going to do the three piece challenge I know But I've actually
Starting point is 00:15:43 I'm actually found Okay So we've got some... Wow. This is a way to tell someone that you're not doing the Three Beaks Channel. What could do it with you as well? Jesus. Which friends?
Starting point is 00:15:54 It doesn't matter. So... What do you mean? Who are they? Who are these people? Is it Josh? It's Josh and Rob. We're not just Josh and Rob.
Starting point is 00:16:03 A. Castro and Ed Gamble might join us as well. We're doing like a double-act podcast. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I didn't think you'd want to go. I don't think it really applied to you. You're going on your own. You're flying solo. See the Northern Lights.
Starting point is 00:16:17 Like that ugly husband in the fuck you. Anyway. See that these are... You've seen the Northern Lights, right? Yeah. Yeah. Overrated. Fit 7 wonders of a world including the Matchu Palace.
Starting point is 00:16:27 Matches, the Great Wall of China and the Coliseum. How many of those you've seen? I've seen the Coliseum. Yeah. Not done the Great Wall or Machu Picchu. Yeah. Go on a safari. Done that.
Starting point is 00:16:38 Can I say these are so external? What do you mean? We're just very like, yeah, what about self? Oh, sorry. Let's do an internal one. Have a colonoscopy. What are you talking about? No, I'm just saying, what about self-grite?
Starting point is 00:16:49 Oh, these are personal great. Write a book or a screenplay. Okay, yeah. Well, I've done. Run a marathon, done that. Learn a new language. Learn a new language is not bad, I'm. Yeah, that would be quite a fun to do.
Starting point is 00:16:59 Perform on stage. Yeah, okay. Wow, you've done, you've done loads of these. Write a screenplay. Yeah, I've done that. I mean, what I would say, okay, now we've actually got some kindling for the dream factory. Do a film, I guess. But I'm not dying to do that.
Starting point is 00:17:18 Wow. It must be so nice to just not think about these things. Okay. Last hour on appearance. See the Olympics. Attending, I mean, I don't, I think that's a... Attendative in Rio, that would be nice. Yeah, you'd love that.
Starting point is 00:17:30 But it's not bucket list, isn't it? Yeah, you'd love that, by the way. Why? I actually think that's a version of you that I'd love to see. What, Carnival Rom? Yeah. Just losing your mind. Do you really like it?
Starting point is 00:17:41 Is it wicked? I think you're thinking of the Carnival in Croydon. No, I just sing nice Carnival in Rio No, but you and Rio Just shathing that out Do you think the carnival in Rio is like Blue Orchid?
Starting point is 00:17:55 I think everywhere should be trying A bit more like Blue Orchid Do you know what? So clubbing's dying, isn't it? Yeah, yeah, it's sad. I like, I used to complain about them all the time. But do you know when you go somewhere
Starting point is 00:18:05 like a shit nightclub? Yeah. It's so underrated, isn't it? I haven't been for years. Oh, no. Oh my God. Do you know what? Actually, I think that's a good business idea.
Starting point is 00:18:14 What? recreating for people of our age the shit nightclub experience I mean I'm happy to sort of say I'll go into it but I'm a little bit worried that I turn my back and then you're doing it with I don't know like whoever some other fucking comedian
Starting point is 00:18:29 I can't think of any of else it's this lack of improv skills that is the reason that I'm not doing the three peaks with you because you'll be in improv in all the way up there no I'm doing the three peaks with them I'm only messing around okay but anyhow the night clock that is actually a seriously good idea that is a good idea yeah like you know
Starting point is 00:18:44 You have to do it in a... You know, they do that Karen's Diner? You know, this is the thing we should do. We should do it as a one-night only. Pop-up? A pop-up, old-school, 90s nightclub that we run. Yeah, and we call it like some shit name. Because you know what I'd be really sick.
Starting point is 00:19:01 It's they always had the two dance room. They always had the two rooms. And then each of us could curate one of the rooms. You have the hip-hop, call that room. I'll have my room with the power ballads and the classics and the old sort of 70s. Mate, this is actually a fucking good idea. mate, it's a sick idea. We could call it the Wolf and Al Popper.
Starting point is 00:19:17 Yes. Oh my God. This is actually a fucking idea. The Wolf and Al night club for one night only. This is a fucking sick idea. We should do it this summer. Oh my God. Like a festival vibe.
Starting point is 00:19:27 You heard it here first. Wolf and Owl. If you're interested in this. No, no, no, no. Don't do this. No, no, no. We should do this. What do you mean if you're interested?
Starting point is 00:19:35 We know everything. We could do this. Yeah, but what are you saying if you're interested in this? What do you want them to do? Sign up for the mailing list. What mailing list? We've got mailing list. certainly, John? No.
Starting point is 00:19:45 Okay. Well, this is, I mean, already, now already I'm starting to lose faith in this. Wait, we could do this. You've asked some signs to mailing this that doesn't exist. Yeah, but this would be cool.
Starting point is 00:19:58 Okay, I think we should, I'm actually serious, we should do it. I'm serious. This is mad. By the way, like, the thought of, you know, you get Picardy breezes, hootches. Yeah. Mate, the music will... What time would...
Starting point is 00:20:10 Do you know, I'll have Percy with me. You've got Merton too smooth with you. Percy's great for an old, like that stuff. What time would we go from until? I think you've got to do, like I've got to say, respect to what you did the other week. Three to nine.
Starting point is 00:20:21 Yeah, three till nine. Three to nine is a good time. Then everyone can get off and, you can have a nice dinner. Yeah. Grab a Nando's or a Pizza Express. I think there should be a thing, is because what I do realize at this time in our lives
Starting point is 00:20:33 is there some people are like, I'd like to come, but I'm going to come on my own. Right. We have it was with the wolf in our lives. Yeah, with my show sometimes, people will message me and go, I'm just here on my own.
Starting point is 00:20:43 And they feel, feel quite vulnerable. I think there should be like a support. If you're coming on your own, you know, like you can meet out with other people, there's a bit of a group.
Starting point is 00:20:51 No, but I think we'll for now audience, it'll be fine. Yeah, I think it'll attract the sort of people. Where should we, where would you want to do it?
Starting point is 00:20:57 I think we go small. Yeah. Because we've got no idea what the appetite is for this. Yeah. I mean, first of all, we're only advertising
Starting point is 00:21:04 into a non-existent mailing list, so that limits the numbers quite a bit. Yeah, but there's, so there's two rooms. We need. I don't think there's two rooms. I think we go back to back. Okay.
Starting point is 00:21:13 So I think we could do one room. Yeah. And then you and I just sort of blend sets. Yeah, okay, cool. Yeah. And then we take turns and there's like the Tom Aaron and whatever. Okay, sweet. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:23 Yeah. This is actually happening. I'm being serious. I'm all over this. Yeah, unless somebody else wants to do it with me. Well, hello, Ed. Oh, yeah. Oh, no, no, he can't hear you.
Starting point is 00:21:35 This is exciting. Yeah, really exciting. A business venture for the agents. Yeah, yeah. This is great. I think we do it in Croydon. Yeah, if you want to do it in Croydon. Yeah. there's a Citibulvenu.
Starting point is 00:21:44 If you're in Citiable venue, Wolfadpod.com. Or join the main list. And then if it works, I'll tell you what we could do. I'll tell you what, if it works, we could, the next time we do a tour,
Starting point is 00:21:53 we could then do an after party. Mate, that would be sick. Or a pre-party. Yeah. I know, fuck knows. Anyway, it's a good business idea. Yeah, this is exciting. This is exciting.
Starting point is 00:22:01 This is exciting times. Have you been to Lego Land? Yeah. What did you think? What's your problem with Lego? I liked it. Why did you say, what do you think? The queuing was insane.
Starting point is 00:22:12 It's the most. intense queuing I've ever done. Well the last time I went to Legoland we had at least when I had an argument. Wow. You queue to get into the car park yeah right and then you queue to get into
Starting point is 00:22:27 the park yeah and then we decided if we're going to get fast track I think it's called Q something yeah so then there was a cue for that so we'd done two Q's and then I was in my third Q before we'd gone on a single ride then I found I think it's called QBot or something
Starting point is 00:22:43 then I found a QR code and if you downloaded that you didn't have to queue up to pay for the fast pass. Wow. So I downloaded that and then I said to Lisa, I've got great news. We don't have to queue here because I've just downloaded the thing. And then Lisa said, I think she's a bit pissed off from it at this stage. She goes, well, why have we been queuing up then? Oh, wow. That was her immediate response.
Starting point is 00:23:03 And I said to because I didn't realize that was the situation. You can buy that on the app now. Yeah. And then she walked away from me. Wow. because we'd had a bit of a narc. And then as she walked away, there's a guy going, difficult theme parts, aren't they?
Starting point is 00:23:18 Can I have a photo? He'd watch the whole argument. Do you know, I find that a weird thing, by the way. I said this to Catherine recently. We're at a point now we can't even have a little squabble out, you know, even about the mildest thing. Because you're so famous. No, no, where people were watching.
Starting point is 00:23:33 Do you know what I mean? And you know, like, you know, so you're sort of like, as soon as anything becomes a bit like, like, if there's sort of like, a mild argument sort of like, fluffing in the air. Be careful. Yeah. You've got to be, if you're recognisable, you've got to be real careful with that.
Starting point is 00:23:48 I would say with the Q and the thing, I didn't do the fast track because I was like, there's only a limited amount of things that I'll be able to go off of Grace. How tall is Grace? She's not, 1.4 is the key height, really. Yeah, she's nowhere near 1.4. So she, so I stupidly took her, my nephew and Catherine and me all went on to the water ride thing. I made the mistake of getting off, getting on at the back. So the whole boat went like that.
Starting point is 00:24:10 and it was really screey like Catherine was like I don't know if we're going to be able to get up the thing because it was so like but as soon as we went around Grace was quite excited about the water ride until she got splashed in the face by a rat by a rat you know the rats
Starting point is 00:24:26 the Lego rats oh right yeah yeah so she was soaking in and she was like I hate this and then you know that it's going to get worse and worse so she's crying as we're going around yeah Catherine and me both quite panicked to this point that we won't make it up
Starting point is 00:24:39 or we'll get halfway up the sort of slide to go to the big drop and we'll fall back and take out the people behind us. But it was 120 minutes for the queue to get onto this thing. Why did you not fast track? I was like, no, we got there. It was 50 minutes and it just got longer and longer. So you queue up for two hours?
Starting point is 00:24:56 To get on this thing. That's a big portion of your day gone. So we got on that and then we went on this little roller coaster. I thought, oh, this will be alright. I'm not a fast track on this because the queue didn't look that big. Another, pretty much another hour on that cue. And no one wore me, when I got on with Grace, no one wore me the fact that it was made for tiny children.
Starting point is 00:25:16 So I nearly decapitate myself from there. No one's all you probably best you duck when you go around the corner there, mate. It doesn't sound like, if I'm being nice, you've enjoyed Lego Lama. No, I enjoyed being, look, I loved the submarine thing. Yeah. Met actually two lovely Wolf and our fans who came to our shows. Be nice people, very kind, good Welsh people. I enjoyed that.
Starting point is 00:25:36 Which is, as you often say, is rare, isn't it? You prick. What? You're such a sneak. What do you mean? I love the Welsh. Yeah. Those two Welsh.
Starting point is 00:25:44 You know, I love the Welsh. Anyway, carry on. Well, Welsh are delicious people. Right. So you've got, so we enjoyed the submarine bit. I enjoyed the water ride, I've got to say. That's like, Grace didn't really like that. And I know, in general, I like the ambience of the pad.
Starting point is 00:25:56 I will say that. I enjoy, I like, I like being around people. I have a bit of a laugh. Yeah, yeah, yeah. One of my favorite things in a queue is to complain and have a laugh with the people you're queering with. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:08 Okay. At one point, I ran off and got some people and some drinks That's quite nice Did you? Yeah
Starting point is 00:26:12 I got some drinks with people around there I went to Thought Park With Charlie Oh, I love this So Lisa Alex and Theo Yeah Went to Lanzarotti
Starting point is 00:26:22 Wow On holiday Yeah Yeah With their group Charlie couldn't leave The country Because of the ongoing
Starting point is 00:26:29 Court case No because He was on call for Oliver Yeah So we had a Lad's Lad's holiday Like a little lad's weekend
Starting point is 00:26:37 Yeah staycation of us. Stacation, yeah. So I took him to thought part. Stringfellas.
Starting point is 00:26:46 I got the fast track. Now, fast track is quite controversial. I've talked about fast track on this show before. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:26:52 and I got abuse for it. Yeah. Because it's a lot of money. You know, at Lego, by the way, you fast track, I didn't realize until later on you can fast track
Starting point is 00:27:01 individually. Yeah. So I got the fast track for the day. Yeah. I got heckled quite a lot. Because obviously it's annoying. If you're queuing up,
Starting point is 00:27:09 the full queue and then you see some fucking twat. Yeah. Like just getting to the front. And also, I'll, like loads of people going, oh my God, surprise,
Starting point is 00:27:19 surprise, surprise, Ramesh has got fast track, do you know what I mean? Stuff like. I say that. It wasn't what they said. It was Ramesh or...
Starting point is 00:27:25 The Ramesh thing. I know it winds you up. But recently, like, so for your birthday, I got you a gift. Thank you, but let's talk about this.
Starting point is 00:27:34 I'm not going to bring this up. You're going to talk about a minute, but, As a part of that gift, I wanted to have something ascribed on it for you. So I chat to this guy who gets these things, what the gift is. As I'm chatting to him, I'm like, oh, this is for my friend Rommish. And he went, oh, Ramesh. I'm a big fan of Ramesh.
Starting point is 00:27:54 And I went, it's Ramesh. And then he's like, okay, and then we're having this conversation. And in every bit of the conversation, he's spelling your name R-A-M-A-S-H. R-A-M-A? Yeah. Like R-A-M-A-R-A-M-A-R-A-M- Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:11 Ramash. And I'm going, this is like, most of the time I pick you up about it and go, his name's not that. Yeah. In this situation, I'm like, this guy's having to inscribe your name onto the gift. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:24 A gift that, you know, I hope will stay in your life for a long. I don't want the gift every time you look at it to be a, so I'm having to go, please, can you just, this is how you spell his name. Yeah. in capital letters and then he'd come back I'm not sure if he was joking of and he'd go all right okay and he was like
Starting point is 00:28:41 I bet Ramesh's gutted at the moment about the football I was like yeah his name is like your name is to inscribe this like it's what is a beautiful what I think a nice gift turn into a fucking slap in a face if his name spelt wrong
Starting point is 00:28:57 so up until you got it and you send it to me anxiety that he got it wrong. I think it's funny that he got it wrong though. Lisa and had a laugh about it. No, it's beautiful. You got me this beautiful, framed, signed Thierry-on-Ree shirt, a little inscription at the back, on the front, sorry. I shared it on Instagram, but I only showed the picture of the thing.
Starting point is 00:29:24 Yeah. The inscription and people thought you got me a gravestone. Is that what people thought? Yeah. Or a memorial plaque. Who the fuck by someone on? I don't know. I don't know, but that's what people said it looked like.
Starting point is 00:29:34 Well. Anyway, thank you. It's one of the nicest gifts I've ever got in my life. Well, it was a big thank you for got a... One of the nicest gifts I've ever received in my life. So thank you. A very special person. Look forward to pretending I'm going to repay the gesture and forgetting.
Starting point is 00:29:49 Hey, I don't give to receive. I said, it's Catherine's 40th this year. Yeah. You said, would you... Do you know when it comes to presents? I enjoy giving more than I, you're receiving. Can I just say, that's handy. it's like compliments
Starting point is 00:30:08 I much prefer giving them out rather than receiving I know you love giving them mate fucking out it's disgusting anyway thought park fast track yeah
Starting point is 00:30:19 went on all the roller coasters I am I'm starting to as I get older which I have been doing my entire life but what I'm saying is I've moved into the
Starting point is 00:30:32 yeah yeah I'm approaching old man phase yeah old man rum yeah You sort of start to think This is stupid that I'm getting on this roller coaster You know like Charlie wanted to go on all the really hardcore
Starting point is 00:30:45 Hardcore ones We went on Hyperia That's the most of all Thought Park is sick Second of all That Hyperia is up there with The roller coaster we went to in Florida Like it is, that is an amazing ride
Starting point is 00:31:02 Saw can fuck off What's wrong with Saw? that's the only one I didn't enjoy it's like it's a personal thing I don't like jerky I don't like a roller coaster you have to see an osteopath afterwards and that's what saw was do you mean
Starting point is 00:31:17 it's like just cranking around and all that I didn't like that went on the ghost train yeah scary ghost train is like you get on it's like a south eastern train yeah and then the two guys that are running
Starting point is 00:31:31 the train get possessed and then like demons appearing yeah it's pretty cool well actors no real deal demons. They get demons. No, no, but there's two actors doing it. Yeah. I was fine that that's like, because you know that they're not real, right? You know that they're not much? Yeah. Yeah. I was find that that sometimes. You find it a bit egg? I just find it's a tough one. I know, I know. When you've been in Wonka and Paddington, who gives a fuck about other actors trying to get some work
Starting point is 00:31:54 whatever they can? What you're talking about is going on so much sore or something that's really terrifying. Yeah. And then you've got a guy going, uh, tickets, please. Ah, uh, I've been That is what happened. Yeah, no. That's exactly what happens. Then you go, oh shit, sorry. And then you feel like you're... Mind the doors, please.
Starting point is 00:32:14 Yeah. Yeah. And then you're like, and then you have to go. I quite enjoyed it. Yeah, you enjoy it, but it's not as terrifying as so you... No, but it's not supposed to it. They can make... Listen, that's the thing is like, sometimes you're one of these people that goes through a thing
Starting point is 00:32:31 where a kid's, a family theme park. Yeah. Right? You sit on the train. and they do some shit and then the kids go, my God or whatever. And then you get blokes
Starting point is 00:32:39 going, didn't find that scary at all. No, no, no, no, no. Let me tell you something. If they wanted to make you shit yourself, they could. There's a place in Blackpool with a fucking do, mate.
Starting point is 00:32:49 You go to the Blackpool one, they chase you around, they grab you. It's like terrifying. Where are you going in Blackpool? There's a Blackpool. I don't know if it's still that. It went of years,
Starting point is 00:32:59 like a haunted house thing. They've got a Freddy Krueger in there, the girl from Exorcist. The Jason, him, whatever his face is. Always. Yeah. Chains your massacre.
Starting point is 00:33:09 Chases you at the end. He's got a big chains who chases you through and then you come running out and you're in the middle of the gift shop. Yeah. It's fucking terrifying. Yeah, yeah. That one, because you constantly feel, I saw someone punch someone in there. Yeah, well, that's the other thing is when we went on the ghost train, they had to tell
Starting point is 00:33:22 everybody they will not touch you. So don't touch them. Yeah, yeah, but because I guess. This one, they couldn't say that. Because when I was at thought part, there's a lot of people on the... Yeah, but by the way, that completely takes it out of the... Oh, you're going to be really scared. By the way, there's no touching.
Starting point is 00:33:37 We ain't going to touch. You go, oh, fair enough. I'm all right then. No, do you know what? I would rather, they let it be scary. And then some pissed punter at Thought Park. Who's getting drunk at Thought Park? So many people.
Starting point is 00:33:47 Really? Mate. The day I was there, bearing in mind it was like the Friday, good Friday, people were getting on it. Really? Start at the bank holiday. People were on it. Like a group of lads come up to you're going to get a photo.
Starting point is 00:34:00 They all had a pint in each hand. Wow. Honestly, man I got smashed with Catherine Ryan at the thought Chessington once Did you? We spent the whole day
Starting point is 00:34:09 just having vodka and coax I mean I'm saying it like it's a flex But that's what we did Yeah, okay People do it Fair enough I mean I wouldn't do it now
Starting point is 00:34:17 I mean I certainly wouldn't do it Well I'm supervising Charlie And I was driving back Leathered Dad why did you hit that man on the train By the way Here's a question for you We went to Charlie wanted to go
Starting point is 00:34:28 To Ben and Jerry's Yeah We went there Yeah I don't want to make a big thing of it half the ice cream was missing. So you go, can I have this, no, no, I've got that anymore. Can have this, no, no, that happened a lot.
Starting point is 00:34:40 It's very strange actually because we had exactly this at, was it Ben and Jerry's? Yeah, yeah. Okay, so now, because I'm going to be honest with you, I'm going to say it now, my experience at Ben and Jerry's in Thought Park was the worst thing about my day at Thought Park. Wow. Okay, that they were, I don't know what was going on there.
Starting point is 00:34:56 I don't know if the staff were underpaid, half the ice cream is missing. Yeah. Right. So then eventually when we settled on a flavor they did have, Yeah. We got it with whipped cream. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:06 He wanted whipped cream on the top. Came with no whipped cream. Wow. Couldn't be asked to fucking, but we'd been charged for it. Wow. Went back there. They were too busy with other people, so I was like Charlie's going to take fucking age.
Starting point is 00:35:17 Just just get out of it. Really? It's mad. We went to Ben and Jerry. I don't know who it is. I don't know if it's Ben or Jerry, but fix up. Anyway, go on what you say. Weird.
Starting point is 00:35:24 Exactly. So we turn up to get the ice creams. Grace likes marshmallows on an ice cream. There's a jar of marshmallows. She loves them. And I went, is all to have some marshmallows? marshmallows on there and he went
Starting point is 00:35:36 oh no they're just for display I said what are they not real marshmallows and he went yeah they're real marshmallows but they're just said for display but why display something that you're not selling and he said I don't know
Starting point is 00:35:47 but we just put them there for I said it's just okay in this instant to put some marshmallows on there and he went no I can't do that so Ben and Jerry's fucking sort yourself out it's because Hagendas is a better ice cream anyway
Starting point is 00:36:00 yeah I said to what else I love him better than that Hargandas. Hagandas sounds better at Hargandas. Hagandas. I've actually had to see a bit of a haggendass. Hagandas sounds like a poker. The creamiest ice cream on the market.
Starting point is 00:36:13 By the way, we need to be careful because we have, you know, Ben and... No, no. John's shitting himself. Yeah. Absolutely shitting himself. Yeah, we need to be careful. Hargandas is not better flavour than Ben and Jerry's, though. Ben and Jerry's is incredible. Taste better. Yeah, but I'm just saying, Hargandas.
Starting point is 00:36:30 I like the ethics of Hargandas. In what way? I think it's like this. They don't have marshmallows at Hagendust, are they? No. No. But they don't put them on display either. No, that's a fair point.
Starting point is 00:36:39 You're not like running up a road going, oh, wow, fucking marshmallow. Ben and Jerry's is a big tease, I think, quite a lot of the time. Yeah, fuck you, Ben and Jerry's. Unless we get a read. All right, Tom, take us out of the out. Hello, friend. I am the sun shining down on you. Do you fill my rays?
Starting point is 00:36:58 They're for you, but not just for you. they're for everyone the flowers the trees the animals the insects thing about the sun is you let it hit your face and let it slowly work up your tan you can be selfish with it much like other things do you know what i'm talking about i'm glad you do you do truth is sometimes in life it's very easy to think a moment that you live in is just for you. Some are turning, a smile, a lamb being born. And you can start then believing in a selfish way that the world that you live in is just for you.
Starting point is 00:37:52 That your actions, as impactful as they may be to you, don't have a ripple effect that impact others. But alas, dear friend, alas. everything each one of us do somehow ripples out to other people. A fart on the train that gives someone a tummy ache. A burp in a lift that gives someone a tummy ache. Stepping on someone's toe that incidentally doesn't seem like it matters, but that person has an ingrained toe now,
Starting point is 00:38:18 and they're in absolute agony for ages. See, I guess the thing is, as you're walking through life, it's easy just to think you're the solo character in your own story, but your story is linked to many other stories. And in those stories, you don't want to be the bad guy, So the truth is, every action that you do, make sure there's a kindness behind it, very much like the sun, ripping down, brightening your day. Obviously, you know, not counting, sort of skin cancer and stuff.
Starting point is 00:38:46 But be good, be kind of. And do your best to brighten up people's taste. Thank you so much for listening to and watching the Wolf on our podcast. Email in Wolframad, pod. We'll see you very soon for an email special. Subscribe. Peace out.
