(00:00):
Oh, say, can you see.
By the door.
Should I start?
I have no idea what the fuckingnational Anthem is, is that
nationally.
I have no idea what it is.
I don't know the rest of theway.
What a good permanent residentyou are.
Yeah.
I didn't say I don't need toknow shit.
Hello everyone.
Hello.
(00:20):
back back, back again, some morebullshit.
I have Celsius, coursing throughmy veins.
Thank God.
And here we are to discusssomething that is truly at the
heart of the, both of us.
If you could already tell I'mfrom the UK.
Yes.
I am from the United States ofAmerica.
(00:40):
I don't think so.
You're Canadian though.
I think it's so funny.
That's embarrassing for me.
We used to live in Canada.
We were there for four years.
I love Canada.
So, now we live here in SanFrancisco in mock country.
Awesome.
strange things I have foundsince moving to this country
that I think all.
(01:01):
Foul.
huh.
That's very pointed towards me.
And there are some things aboutyour country that I don't like
either.
So we're going to fight aboutit.
Today death.
Oh, also if you didn't knowsomething really fun.
Then when we first started ourTik TOK, Korea, we, uh, talk
like a boomer.
(01:21):
Really?
It takes off.
Tick tock.
Yeah.
It's for the bed.
For the day, my current bit.
Which is delusional and a littlebit deranged.
That's your current.
Yeah.
Just cause it's the Southeast.
I just had normally let it likesit for a second before I like
start speaking or start doingsummer down in your stomach.
All of a sudden it's just like,ah, the keys are flying the keys
(01:43):
offline.
So.
Basically, The year was 2020.
We did a series on tick, talkabout British words versus
American words or slang, or likedifferent sayings.
And that was how we got our staron Tik TOK.
So without further ado, let thesecond great British American
war begin.
Let's take in.
(02:04):
Okay.
But what does good?
Well, you've not really lived inthe UK, so I have perceptions of
the UK.
No, I have not lived in the UK,but we lived there for like
three months.
Last the other year, two years.
Yeah.
But like I've been in the UKoften enough to have gathered
from both the internet andphysically things.
Number one.
The biggest, not the biggeststick.
(02:26):
But the big, the one that comesto my mind.
Is that you have an islandcalled the isle of man.
Why is that if you have anaisle.
Island.
A.
This piece of land.
Dedicated to men.
And that's an.
For me.
That's disgusting.
Well, I mean, there isn't likean overpopulation of men on the
island.
(02:46):
However, did you know that theisle of man has a special breed
of cats that don't have tails?
Oh, you've told me.
That's so weird.
I don't know.
I don't know why.
I don't know.
Why did someone cut off theirtails?
No, because if they cut themoff, then why would they all be
breeding and have no tails?
Because that's just not how itworks.
Evolution just said you don'tneed tales anymore.
(03:09):
I don't know the details.
I don't want to look this up.
I don't know the details of,the, the tailless cat.
But it's horrifying.
Okay.
To say the least, but also Ifeel like.
Tell these for like balance.
So I don't know the fuck they'reimbalanced cats, but regardless
you have an island named after aman.
After men after men general, whoare dial off, man.
I've man.
(03:30):
Yeah, horrible.
Did you decide whether or notyou love or hate man?
Sometimes you love men.
Sometimes you hate them.
Yeah.
Hey.
Okay.
Layli unless they're hot.
This is going to be hideous.
I'm so excited for yours.
Because you have experienced inthis country, you have two years
of experience under your belt.
yeah, but I feel like, I feellike more will come.
(03:50):
I just quickly like wrote thislist of like garbage.
Yeah.
The things that like off the,off the top of my head
immediately first moving to thecountry two years ago.
Really pissed me off isFahrenheit.
First of all, I'm like, what thefuck do you mean?
It's 52 degrees.
What the fuck are you on about?
That's crazy.
Do you know that the UnitedStates of America and one of the
country?
I can't remember the name of it.
(04:12):
Not that can't remember the nameof that specific country, but
the United States and one othercountry.
Yeah.
I don't fucking know what thecountry is.
Yeah.
I was the only two countriesthat use Fahrenheit.
Yeah.
Get what the fucking program.
It makes sense.
It doesn't make sense.
I have told you how it makessense.
I know.
I know it's not, it doesn't makesense.
Celsius doesn't make sense.
You could say.
(04:32):
doesn't make sense.
It makes sense.
Scientifically.
But not really when you're outand about 20 degrees.
I know it is because I live inCanada and Germany.
I understand how a Celsiusworks.
it doesn't make sense.
Like it's 20 degrees and it'shot.
but when you have Fahrenheit,you think of it on a scale of
zero to 100?
Zero to 100%.
zero degrees, it's so cold.
(04:52):
It's crazy cold.
It's the 0% cold.
When you have 32%, it's on thethreshold of cold.
It's 32 degrees.
That's the point of freezing.
And then you have 50%, 60%.
That's like, you know, it'sgetting out there hot, you have
a hundred percent, a hundreddegrees in board.
At the end of the day, you havejust been talking so much shit
for the last two minutes.
(05:13):
I don't know what the fuck youjust said.
It was dumb and it wasmeaningless.
That makes sense ever.
Actually turn this podcast offright now.
Give me the mic.
Give me your mind.
This is a solo project.
I will be continuing by myself.
Shut up.
You know, it makes.
Quite enough and you need tointegrate into the known.
The thing is I won't, youshould.
(05:34):
I won't get out.
Fucking guy and take, talk toyou the day.
I know every single fucking fiveseconds I might.
Tick tock, tick tock.
But it was a guy complainingabout his wife, who he married
she's from the Philippines hasbecome Americanized because she
divorced him while she wasfiling for divorce or something.
And he was like, trying tofigure out what other country
you can go to, to find a wifebecause he hates American women.
(05:57):
Right.
And I think he just hates women.
Great.
What was I going with that?
I love the man.
I shouldn't like, yeah.
Men sock, stop telling me whatto do.
no, I will not conform to yourbullshit.
Imperial system.
It's fine.
Although miles.
Lbs.
Do you make a lot more sensethan stone we'll get there?
That was another one.
(06:17):
How dare you.
So stones.
Let's talk about them boulders.
Pebbles.
Why do you measure?
And I don't know.
Why are you measuring in rocks?
It doesn't make sense toStonehenge.
I don't know.
I really don't know.
It doesn't make sense.
How many stones are you likethree.
No.
Like seven, 12.
(06:39):
That's heavy.
I didn't know, but I don't knowhow it's, I don't know how, they
measure it.
Cause it doesn't, it doesn'trelate to a kilogram or a pound
in any way.
maybe, maybe because you havepound as the pound, as the
money.
Maybe it'd be confusing if itwas like pounds weight and like
pounds of money.
So they had to come up withsomething else.
So they picked a rock.
But I feel like kilograms,kilograms is like widely
(07:00):
accepted in the UK.
Howden's Europe.
Stones is just a very Britishthing.
It feels like, I don't know why.
And I was young.
I was like, oh my God, I'm ninestone.
That's crazy.
This is stupid.
I know, but I don't know whatthat means, but like now you're
asking me, what'd you like,what'd you like change?
If you changed, wait a littlebit, would you be like 9.1
stone?
It's 0.9 0.125.
(07:21):
I'm looking to see how much I amin stone.
I have 12.5 stone.
Oh my God.
Point five.
So if he picked up like 12stones outside, like how bigger
the stones.
I really don't know.
I'm very confused.
I want to know the origins ofthis and the Taylor's cats.
Oh, it says, okay.
A stone is equal to 14 pounds.
Okay.
(07:42):
One stone equals 14, but wheredid was the origin?
Could.
I don't it's too much.
We can research everything,research the topics and have
like a research episode.
Research that come back.
I wrote a thesis.
On everything discussed.
I would love that.
Yeah.
That gives me the egg.
Because what you're going totell me your 14 stone.
That's so stupid.
It's dumb.
No, I know.
I know.
(08:02):
I can agree with you.
I can agree with you on manythings too.
This is.
We're either at war or inagreeance.
So shots were fired at thebeginning and now we've, we've
come back to the table.
That's nice.
Let's see if we go away.
Oh, a hundred percent.
I'm going.
We're going to be the shaft.
Okay.
I moved, Hey, the end of 2022.
but obviously I've been to thestates like a couple of times
(08:24):
before that one thing thatreally pisses me grinds my
fucking gays.
Why are we living in the 21stcentury?
I'm paying for something, ourrestaurant.
You're taking my card away.
Yeah.
Why is it going?
Why is it going to the sidequest?
Why is my, why is myMasterCard's going on a side
quest?
Why is my American express?
(08:44):
That I have earned.
That's dangerous from living inthis country.
Why is my American express doinga little toodaloo to the bottom
off.
And, and being swiped without myvisual guidance And also
chaperoning it to.
The space that it needs to be.
And it's, it's a dangerous gameit's being swiped without your
(09:04):
knowledge.
it freaks me out a little bit.
That's really dumb.
It's actually really dumb assomeone who's also lived in
other countries, like.
Can I just stop?
Can you go?
Get the fuck out of, I thinkalso, also you're bringing me
the receipt.
And I have to do math.
Oh, yeah, But his hips done.
It's done and then sign.

calculator.

that.
Oh, I had to, I had to searchthrough our fucking drawer to
find a pen.
Exactly.
And I'm here.
I am at the, at the restaurant.
Writing.
Right with my hands.
That's wild.
It is crazy work.
(09:46):
I'm here using pen and paper.

And we need to advance.
As a society.
Cause bring me the machine.

No.
When we came, when we first camehere, we drove through
Mechanicsburg, Ohio.
And we went to a pizza shop andthat was the first time that was
(10:07):
your first experience, likeusing a receipts spot.

To be from Ohio.
I mean it wasn't their choice.
No, but it was a choice.
Move on.
I don't want to talk about.
Ever again.
Okay.
And it that I believe manypeople on the internet will
(11:34):
relate to from seeing Britishinfluencers and British people
generally.
Um, and their skin tone.
I'm only talking about white.
I've only talked about whiteBritish people for this.
I was like, hope.
I was like, Hmm.
Rain and rain and no, I'm onlytalking about white British
people.
Exactly.
bronzer.
B R O N Z E R too much of it.
(11:56):
The bronzer industry.
The boron.
Okay.
Whatever the fake tan, bronze orindustry is thriving in the UK.
Yeah.
Why don't they just be theircolor.
Because you'd see these like TikTOK influencers, and they're
doing like a fucking makeuproutine.
And then they're doing theirface and their face and you can
see their hand and their faketan is so orange.
It's worse than Donald Trump.
(12:16):
Donald Trump would die for thisspray tab.
It is.
And then their skin.
Spray, do you think it's sprayit's fucking ton a ton into cam.
At a candle, whatever.
Is that nice, nice spray tan.
Is that on the same page?
No, it's literally squeezed.
So I used to go around to myfriends house.
on a Friday night after collegeand we would get ready and she'd
be like, can you tell me back?
(12:37):
Cause she couldn't reach and I'dput the little greasy little
Mitt on and then squeeze alittle juices out the squeezy
tube.
And then it would be like it waslike mahogany.
Right.
And then I'd like, you know,some mother on her back just as
she could have a nice tan backand shoulders for the night out.
And you know what?
Just look slow.
Let's.
She looked like she'd just beenin tenor reef.
There's a difference between agood tan and orange tan.
(12:58):
I'm seeing too many orange tans.
Yes, it was good.
That was a difference.
I'm seeing a lot of orange, youknow, what you see when you see

And I feel like this falls on toa very specific American
demographic.
The use of cutlery.
I think.
We should use the tools at ourdisposal.
If we are eating a dinner.
we require the assistance andaid of shop.
Tool.
But instead of reaching for aknife, we turn the fork to its
side.
(23:23):
And then cut.
Just so we don't have to just sowe don't have to use like a big
baby, like you need like a, likea S.
no.
what's a mixer between a Falcon,a knife.
Is there a tool that exists likethat?
a cork.
fire knife.
Knife.
Yeah.
And I think that is crazybehavior actually.
Great invention.
Has that, has that beeninvented?
(23:43):
I didn't know.
I love that.
I'm talking about you.
Joe Hema you.
Being Bob Barrick and turningyour fork to its side and like
fucking digging in trying toshovel whatever you're trying to
cut.
Like a piece of meat.
It's not a piece of meat.
It's not my fault.
Give you a steak knife at therestaurant, but you're like, I'm
(24:04):
going to turn my doctorate sidelists.
Uh, cut this brisket.
I'm like, I'm like truly, trulyuse all the fullest.
Do that all the time.
I don't do that all the time.
But do you remember when we werein Austin, Texas, and we went to
that barbecue place and I waslike, please, can you go get
some cutlery?
I don't know where it is.
And you came back with two forksand it was like, there was so
much meat on this plate.
Can you please go back and getsome knives, which was the most
(24:24):
tender meat ever, and turns outyou didn't even need your knife.
Cause sometimes you don't need aknife.
It's nice when.
It was a knife when I was an Ican't, change that.
I was born in North Carolina asa good old Southern boy.
Um, say pajamas pajamas.
Why do you say farm like that ona farm, a fall?
(24:46):
That's the, how you speak on afarm.
It used to have such a greataccent when we met.
I know, you know, I really dohappen.
and I was born with one fork inmy hand.
No knife.
Okay.
And you make.
Moving on.
Oh, no, like this one isactually neck.
No, I feel like I would like itto, It's beans on toast.
(25:08):
That takes me out.
I fucking hate that.
I feel like I would like itthough.
You would like it because it'sjust toast butter, I assume.
And.
Looking like beige food you grewup in North Carolina.
All you ate was I can also knockit.
The thing is yours are verypoint.
Okay.
oh, mine.
Wasn't mine.
It was literally an attack.
Just personally on you.
(25:28):
Beans on toast.
I hate that's going to rufflesome feathers back home.
I don't really get it.
I feel like I could like it.
for example, if I think I've hadbeans on toast now I have never
put a can of Heinz beans ontoast.
We went to my mom's house inApril for my brother's wedding.
I feel like she'll kill me.
If she sees me putting beans ontoast, my mum.
Some will not allow that.
Yeah, I know.
We have decorum where we comefrom.
(25:49):
Do you warm the beans up?
You can, you can.
You can too.
You can just open a can of beansand just pour it on.
What people do.
I don't know what people dobecause I don't have it.
Have you ever had it, have hadit?
Yeah, I've had it.
I've had it more.
How have your.
Jacket potato.
Okay.
That I can get fucking behind.
Yeah.
Jacket potato.
full of, it's just a big potatobake sale, but it's bigger.
(26:12):
No.
So it's a big sale.
It's a big potato.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Good potato.
Like smashed.
Well, you like cross it.
Yeah.
You create the cross.
Crucifixion.
Yeah.
And then you bake it, tinfoilall over it.
Yeah, they care.
Yeah.
And then when you open it, it'slike all like in the new.
Misha out and I've seen the, tokind of like opens up on the,
(26:33):
you like, and then you fill itwith.
Slather butter on it.
I think actually British peopleeat more butter.
Than Americans.
Maybe we have more cows.
I don't know.
On the isle of man.
I don't think the hell of minehas cows.
Just Taylor's cats andapparently too many men.
Too many men on the island, man,fix it.
Fix it.
Well beans on toast out.
Do you know what we need to fix?
What.
(26:54):
Do you know what we need to fix?
What.
Why the fuck.
Are we living here?
And I get so confused by thedate all the time.
Come on.
So annoying.
No.
I'm not over it.
It's been two years over.
I'm not over yet because alsoit's so confusing.
It's not, it's so confusing.
Not it, the debt.
What is the date?
January 5th.
When you say out loud.
Fine.
When you write it down one 15.
(27:15):
Okay.
That sounds, that sounds fine.
It literally makes sense becauseyou're saying January 15th, 20,
25, but.
1 15 1 5.
2025.
I'm like, oh, it's the 1st ofMay.
No.
It's the festival because itsupposed to go day, month, year.
Cause it's going smallest tobiggest, but then it goes month,
day, year.
That's crazy.
Okay.
We're fighting back and forthbecause here's something else.
(27:37):
Your calendar, you have acalendar that starts on Monday,
which is this all the week atthe beginning of the, like the,
the, the, the first thing thatyou see is a Monday.
Then it goes to Sunday.
No Sunday goes first and then itgoes to Saturday and then
Sunday.
No.
Yes.
Why Sunday, the start of theweek.
It makes sense.
That's crazy.
Jesus.
It looks Jesus' fault.
(27:58):
Thank God.
I like it.
I fucking hate it.
I'm Christian.
No.
You're not.
No, you are not.
Down to sleep.
Do you know what I saying?
I've had enough of you.
Do you know what I'm saying is Imiss so much wind your neck in,
I sometimes mind your neck then.
(28:19):
Living in the UK.
I mean, living in the U S isthat I can't say some of the
things he used to say, growingup, what does that.
Mind you not kin.
What does that mean?
And your neck.
And would you watch her mouth?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Wind your neck in your being toolike this.
And you need to be more likethis wind, your.
You're being too like, Sit down.
(28:41):
Are you barking on this podcastnow?
Yes, I bark.
the one that I liked the most isspanner in the works.
It's been in the works.
There's a spanner in the works.
I don't know that I love that.
That's a particularly like.
Which means.
A wrench in the.
Production line.
(29:01):
It was a mess.
Okay.
I think it was like a nest quickadd.
cocoa puffs or some bullshit?
or like the, oh no, I think itwas a, you know, the, the, the,
there were like smaller, likeballs of like chocolate and you
just pour milk in them.
That is that.
That's a cocoa puffs, cocoabuff.
Just set that.
No, wait.
No, no, no.
Wait.
The no, not that that's quick.
(29:23):
It was an S you had an escortserial.
I don't think we had an S quickserial then.
Exactly.
It was an escort serial.
Yeah.
And there was a bunch of animalsthat were the, Mascots the
fucking.
The theme of the fucking cerealwith the mascots the cereal.
Tony the tiger.
Oh, yeah, it's not unprecedentedto have that.
I can't remember what theanimals were, but I'm sure there
(29:44):
was like a fucking EMU or anostrich or something.
And You know, they'd havedifferent advertisements for
different, Types of cereal orjust different times of the
year.
They'd have a different one.
the production lines going.
And everyone's like, so happythat their next quick Cyril is
like going, but then thecrocodile was the villain.
And then the EAM, you noticethis and he's like, oh no, this
is bad.
Or in the works.
And I always remembered that.
(30:06):
And you know what, and I'vealways said that I was like,
where is the EMU coming in?
The story or maybe it was acoyote.
I don't know, but these animalsand they're all so stressed out
about the fact that thecrocodile had put a spanner in
the production line to stop thenest quick from being made
because he wanted the nest quickto stop being manufactured and
distributed to the generalpublic.
(30:26):
Yeah.
And that was a really traumatictime as a child.
When I saw that I was like, thiscrocodile is a piece of shit.
I want my next quick, got doneit.
It's crocodiles, fucking it upfor everyone.
Why the fuck do we have thewicked soundtrack up here?
Because.
so if you didn't know, if you'relistening to this podcast on
audio only change our vinyls outevery single episode, because we
also are on YouTube watches onYouTube.
(30:47):
today's is wicked because it isa story of a British icon and an
American icon coming togetherand being best friends.
Just like us.
question neither in the British.
So the idea is literally.
The British, oh, I forgot anAri.
He is literally.
(31:08):
I was like neither of theAmerican or British.
I was like, Either American orparole.
No, I don't know.
I was just talking about.
Come on, watch the movie andthen I forgot about it.
All right.
Well that's why.
Okay.
Oh, yeah.
Wait.
I know, that's why I picked it.
I said it before.
I know it was like, what thefuck?
I literally picked the wickedsound up because it's literally
the story of our life.
I feel like personality wise,you would be Elphaba Glinda.
(31:31):
Really?
Yeah.
Oh yeah.
No No for sure.
For sure.
For sure.
I'm the golden retriever.
And you're the black cat.
Yeah.
And the black cat is alphabet.
And then Glen does the goldenretriever.
That's my tagline.
we're going to get political.
I'm going to get political withus.
We can get political, Youdecided in the old, old time of
the 1980s.
To have your first female primeminister.
(31:54):
You had your first.
You had the first woman primeminister, such a big
accomplishment.
We haven't even got there.
We just, we just missed out onhours and you chose Margaret
Thatcher and may she be.
Just enjoying the warmth ofwhere she is right now.
It's fucking boiling down there.
Do you chose Margaret Thatcheras your first female prime
(32:16):
minister.
and then you chose two more.
And they were both crazy.
And what was the first one?
Same series.
Theresa May.
And then the other one wholives.
Trust Liz trust who the lettuceout, outlasted her.
Remember that the less.
So there was a, when thosetrusts became prime minister,
there was a thing on X,whatever, whatever they, it was
a pick, there was a livestreamof a lettuce.
(32:38):
Well, the head of lettuce.
Like 10 days.
And they were like, this head oflettuce is going to last longer
than Liz trust.
And it did.
So that's my EQ is that you'vehad three female prime
ministers, three, so manyoptions for really great ones.
And also your, a men primeministers have been pretty shut
to, yeah, I will say like mostof your prime ministers
actually, I feel like have notbeen great.
but the female ones.
(32:59):
Let's dive into Americanpolitics.
This place is a fucking.
Just a fucking shitstorm ofshit.
Isn't it.
So I'm the shit.
We're filming this episode onJanuary seven.
Yesterday marked four yearssince an insole reaction.
Yeah.
I think that is one of the mostinsane things.
Kind of crazy.
Isn't it?
(33:20):
In modern history, one of themost wild.
Things I have witnessed on livetelevision, watching that old
lady climb and then full off ofthat off.
One click.
I'm the man is like trying toget her and then she's like
climbing on the wall and shefalls.
Oh, I take.
Oh, my tray yesterday.
I I thought you were talkingabout MIMO.
No, I love her.
(33:41):
I love MIMO MI mama.
She's like, I'm just happy to behere.
I'm a fly with her Americanflag.
At my flag and I'm starting tobe here.
Do you know who she reminds meof the grandma from carves, the
cowardly dog.
She was running me off creepylittle fucking mouth.
Yeah, creepy smile.
Yeah.
Really freaked me out.
I could sit here.
And divulge all my inner hatredfor the country's political
(34:05):
system.
What the fuck is the electoralcollege.
I know now, cause you know, I'vebeen, I've been known.
I've been known.
It's crazy.
I did think it was a physicalplace growing up.
Like we would watch videos oflike how the elections worked
and it showed a physical place.
Of the electoral college.
And I was like, it's definitely.
There's a, there's a universitysomewhere.
(34:27):
Shit's universities.
all they do.
They don't wait for every fouryears.
Sleep for four years.
And then all of a sudden they'relike Nosferatu for four years.
They come out.
And then they starting toevolve.
Vote for Trump or call by law.
(34:47):
Ty is sad.
I will say the only thing thatbrings our two countries
together.
As the fact that both of ourpolitics are entertaining.
It's kind of sad actually.
I have been unentertained forthe last four years.
I've enjoyed it.
I've enjoyed it.
I've enjoyed it.
No power politics.
Yeah.
Bite on entertaining.
Yeah.
You know, let the, let the, let.
(35:09):
The works and the gears spin asthey were at the production line
continuum.
spanner.
Yeah.
It's not the production line.
Just like just flow.
Let me not have to think toomuch, you know, let me not have
to worry.
Wait, I have got some more, I'vegot one more.
I can do two quick fire round.
Let's.
And we just got really heavywith politics for a second, and
I really could lighten it backup.
(35:31):
I could really.
Uh, gaps in between your toiletstalls are too high.
Oh.
Oh, God, if you're in theairport, do you.
I mean, I agree.
The first, experience you havewhen you come into the country,
you go to the bathroom.
And then you're faced with thesemetal, metal walls.
Yeah.
Which.
It's jarring.
It feels like a cage.
(35:51):
Walls the walls.
Of the toilet stalls are sohigh.
Why can I see your ankles?
Why can I catch a glimpse of youNakey in that?
Guy's crazy.
It's a little glimpse.
A little too much skin.
I'm seeing too much skin as Iwalked by the store.
That's freaky.
It is a bit freaky behavior.
Another area of the UK is.
I feel like we've progressedmore than you on this, on this
(36:12):
stance, but the skinny jeansepidemic.
It's still has still taken theUK by storm.
And the UK is still dealing withthat.
Okay, I'm gonna stop you rightthere.
When it comes except for London.
No.
I've had it with you.
How fucking dare you sit hereand your high horse.
From which you should not be.
(36:33):
To talk to me.
my country about fashion when weare.
The.
Epicenter.
Of culture.
And.
So you're talking about London.
No, I've been to Manchester.
Yeah.
Fashion-wise no I'm talkingabout skinny jeans.

Literally we live in the mostunfashionable city in the
country.
I didn't say we did.

How many people in this country?
White, skinny jeans.
I didn't say we didn't have aproblem with it.
I said, do you have a problemwith it?
And it's true.
Oh, you were talking about twoyears ago when you were then
everyone, everyone was wearingskinny jeans still, maybe.
Yeah.
and this teaches us to sometimeskeep, Wretched thoughts to
ourselves.
Don't insult my country likethat again.
The whole point of this episodeis to share our opinions.

the world.
I hate skinny jeans.
We've all been there.

and it turned out to be an hour.
(40:47):
Wars take a while.
Th th the Trojan war.
We can talk about that for asecond.
I was once reading the, the.
The song of the case.
Once upon a time.
Are we talking about the Trojan?
Song of Achilles.
For the first time.
And it was like, this is such agreat book.
Look at these two little gays.
Look at these two little gayboys having the best time of
(41:07):
their life and all of a suddenthis war.
It lasted.
Decades.
I was reading this book and thepage after page after page was
just war upon war.
And it was the same war.
Nothing happened.
For ages, was there annoying?
Not like this podcast.
And you know what?
I'm a little annoyed at you tobe honest.
Oh, you're fine.
(41:27):
To be honest with you.
You'll be fine.
We have reached the point of theepisode where we love to play a
little game.
A dinner table game.
today's game two truths and alie, two truths and one lie.
You go first, me first.
Minor kind of lame because I'mnot good at lying.
I'm not a good liar.
(41:47):
So two truths and one lie.
One truth.
All the truth.
All of them are true.
You're an idiot.
So dumb.
What the fuck was that?
So the first truth.
We'll be the whole point of thegame.
Cause you're supposed to tellme.
Three things.
And I'm supposed to guess whichone is the lie?
(42:10):
You thought king DeMoss.
Fuck is wrong with you.
You're supposed to tell me.
So we statements and they'resupposed to be anonymous.
You're not supposed to tell mewhich one.
You fucking.
Fuck.
So I played piano in highschool.
I had 10 cats growing up and Iauditioned for American idol
(42:32):
when I was in school.
You.
Did not have 10 cats growing up.
I did have 10, 10.
It's an estimate, but it was alot.
That was 10, 10, 10 plusactually.
Oh, my God.
So why do they all live?
So Ross around, they mostly diedbecause they ran into it in the
road.
So we just stray cats that youparent, your parents took it.
(42:53):
And it was the same cat that hadmultiple litters.
Cause it wasn't like a cat thatwe got fixed.
Oh, I thought you just had like10 unrelated.
No 10 plus cats.
So what was my play?
The piano.
No.
A company that didn't get thatright.
I know.
Well, it's like, you couldn'thave had 10 cats.
That's crazy.
Even after eight years, there'sstill more to know in my mind, I
was like, this is so hard to dobecause.
(43:14):
I I, every single thought thatever pops into my head, whether
it's that tree lookingglistening outside, or I don't
know what else, if I hadrandomly burst out in.
There's lots of myths.
Fucking spam Trojan war.
The Trojan war.
Every thought that goes throughmy brain flies out my mouth.
And to hear it until eightdrums.
Yeah.
(43:34):
Whether you like it or not.
I've never had any stitches orbroken a bone.
Mm.
I had a pet rabbit.
I named photosynthesis when Iwas eight.
That's funny.
Photosynthesis honey for short.
That's cute.
I've been to a monastery.
Thailand.
So it's two truths and one lie.
So one is wrong.
(43:56):
yes, well done.
Stitches or bone.
It's a lie.
I feel like you've had stitchesbefore.
I don't know.
That's.
Stitches.
You've never had stitches.
I knew you'd never broken abone.
I've never broken a bone.
Stitches.
Siri new that had never broken abone.
So if you knew I'd never brokena bone, obviously those two are
in the same.
You can not break a bone andstill get stitches.
Oh, you're right.
Hello.
Yeah, no, no.
(44:16):
I said I've never broken aboutall had stitches.
One statement.
One one truth now.
Um, established, I don't knowhow to play this game.
Yeah.
Clearly monastery.
You had a rabbit?
I had a rabbit.
Yeah.
Yeah, the monastery is a lie.
Yeah.
I knew how to run.
Cause I was like, how intentlythey do.
Listen, I, me and my friendswhen we were in Thailand.
(44:37):
Like.
Motorbiked up to the monastery.
You.
I didn't get into the off waybecause yeah.
And then, yeah, we didn't getit.
Didn't get in.
Yeah again, Let me until I wantto start, you know, look at you.
You need to use your passport toget in.
Hello.
It was a good place that theylike, you know, you could go and
like spend a couple days andlike do like a valve.
I think a silence, people didn'tspeak.
You would not be doing that.
(44:57):
I know.
I know at the time I was like,what was 22?
I was like, this would be such acool thing to do.
And you're silent is when youwere asleep and then the rain
poured down and we were like,we've made it this far.
We can keep going under the rainwas tote like torrential and we
were on motorbikes.
And I wasn't.
Yes, we should.
And we will go up a mountain andI was like, let's call losses
(45:18):
before we die.
Yeah.
And go home.
Yeah.
So we didn't actually make it tothe monastery.
So you didn't actually win thegame.
So.
Neither did I, neither did you?
No, one's a winner.
No, one's.
One's a fucking loser.
Everyone's alluded to.
Perfect.
Oh, my God, why don't you writetwo truths and a lie down and
maybe we'll try and guess.
And the comments and thecomments.
I'm coming back.
On YouTube on Spotify.
(45:39):
Yeah.
On Spotify and on YouTube, youcan go and type in your truth in
your lie.

What a good permanent residentyou are.
Yeah.
I didn't say I don't need toknow shit.
Hello everyone.
Hello.
(00:20):
back back, back again, some morebullshit.
I have Celsius, coursing throughmy veins.
Thank God.
And here we are to discusssomething that is truly at the
heart of the, both of us.
If you could already tell I'mfrom the UK.
Yes.
I am from the United States ofAmerica.
(00:40):
I don't think so.
You're Canadian though.
I think it's so funny.
That's embarrassing for me.
We used to live in Canada.
We were there for four years.
I love Canada.
So, now we live here in SanFrancisco in mock country.
Awesome.
strange things I have foundsince moving to this country
that I think all.
(01:01):
Foul.
huh.
That's very pointed towards me.
And there are some things aboutyour country that I don't like
either.
So we're going to fight aboutit.
Today death.
Oh, also if you didn't knowsomething really fun.
Then when we first started ourTik TOK, Korea, we, uh, talk
like a boomer.
(01:21):
Really?
It takes off.
Tick tock.
Yeah.
It's for the bed.
For the day, my current bit.
Which is delusional and a littlebit deranged.
That's your current.
Yeah.
Just cause it's the Southeast.
I just had normally let it likesit for a second before I like
start speaking or start doingsummer down in your stomach.
All of a sudden it's just like,ah, the keys are flying the keys
(01:43):
offline.
So.
Basically, The year was 2020.
We did a series on tick, talkabout British words versus
American words or slang, or likedifferent sayings.
And that was how we got our staron Tik TOK.
So without further ado, let thesecond great British American
war begin.
Let's take in.
(02:04):
Okay.
But what does good?
Well, you've not really lived inthe UK, so I have perceptions of
the UK.
No, I have not lived in the UK,but we lived there for like
three months.
Last the other year, two years.
Yeah.
But like I've been in the UKoften enough to have gathered
from both the internet andphysically things.
Number one.
The biggest, not the biggeststick.
(02:26):
But the big, the one that comesto my mind.
Is that you have an islandcalled the isle of man.
Why is that if you have anaisle.
Island.
A.
This piece of land.
Dedicated to men.
And that's an.
For me.
That's disgusting.
Well, I mean, there isn't likean overpopulation of men on the
island.
(02:46):
However, did you know that theisle of man has a special breed
of cats that don't have tails?
Oh, you've told me.
That's so weird.
I don't know.
I don't know why.
I don't know.
Why did someone cut off theirtails?
No, because if they cut themoff, then why would they all be
breeding and have no tails?
Because that's just not how itworks.
Evolution just said you don'tneed tales anymore.
(03:09):
I don't know the details.
I don't want to look this up.
I don't know the details of,the, the tailless cat.
But it's horrifying.
Okay.
To say the least, but also Ifeel like.
Tell these for like balance.
So I don't know the fuck they'reimbalanced cats, but regardless
you have an island named after aman.
After men after men general, whoare dial off, man.
I've man.
(03:30):
Yeah, horrible.
Did you decide whether or notyou love or hate man?
Sometimes you love men.
Sometimes you hate them.
Yeah.
Hey.
Okay.
Layli unless they're hot.
This is going to be hideous.
I'm so excited for yours.
Because you have experienced inthis country, you have two years
of experience under your belt.
yeah, but I feel like, I feellike more will come.
(03:50):
I just quickly like wrote thislist of like garbage.
Yeah.
The things that like off the,off the top of my head
immediately first moving to thecountry two years ago.
Really pissed me off isFahrenheit.
First of all, I'm like, what thefuck do you mean?
It's 52 degrees.
What the fuck are you on about?
That's crazy.
Do you know that the UnitedStates of America and one of the
country?
I can't remember the name of it.
(04:12):
Not that can't remember the nameof that specific country, but
the United States and one othercountry.
Yeah.
I don't fucking know what thecountry is.
Yeah.
I was the only two countriesthat use Fahrenheit.
Yeah.
Get what the fucking program.
It makes sense.
It doesn't make sense.
I have told you how it makessense.
I know.
I know it's not, it doesn't makesense.
Celsius doesn't make sense.
You could say.
(04:32):
doesn't make sense.
It makes sense.
Scientifically.
But not really when you're outand about 20 degrees.
I know it is because I live inCanada and Germany.
I understand how a Celsiusworks.
it doesn't make sense.
Like it's 20 degrees and it'shot.
but when you have Fahrenheit,you think of it on a scale of
zero to 100?
Zero to 100%.
zero degrees, it's so cold.
(04:52):
It's crazy cold.
It's the 0% cold.
When you have 32%, it's on thethreshold of cold.
It's 32 degrees.
That's the point of freezing.
And then you have 50%, 60%.
That's like, you know, it'sgetting out there hot, you have
a hundred percent, a hundreddegrees in board.
At the end of the day, you havejust been talking so much shit
for the last two minutes.
(05:13):
I don't know what the fuck youjust said.
It was dumb and it wasmeaningless.
That makes sense ever.
Actually turn this podcast offright now.
Give me the mic.
Give me your mind.
This is a solo project.
I will be continuing by myself.
Shut up.
You know, it makes.
Quite enough and you need tointegrate into the known.
The thing is I won't, youshould.
(05:34):
I won't get out.
Fucking guy and take, talk toyou the day.
I know every single fucking fiveseconds I might.
Tick tock, tick tock.
But it was a guy complainingabout his wife, who he married
she's from the Philippines hasbecome Americanized because she
divorced him while she wasfiling for divorce or something.
And he was like, trying tofigure out what other country
you can go to, to find a wifebecause he hates American women.
(05:57):
Right.
And I think he just hates women.
Great.
What was I going with that?
I love the man.
I shouldn't like, yeah.
Men sock, stop telling me whatto do.
no, I will not conform to yourbullshit.
Imperial system.
It's fine.
Although miles.
Lbs.
Do you make a lot more sensethan stone we'll get there?
That was another one.
(06:17):
How dare you.
So stones.
Let's talk about them boulders.
Pebbles.
Why do you measure?
And I don't know.
Why are you measuring in rocks?
It doesn't make sense toStonehenge.
I don't know.
I really don't know.
It doesn't make sense.
How many stones are you likethree.
No.
Like seven, 12.
(06:39):
That's heavy.
I didn't know, but I don't knowhow it's, I don't know how, they
measure it.
Cause it doesn't, it doesn'trelate to a kilogram or a pound
in any way.
maybe, maybe because you havepound as the pound, as the
money.
Maybe it'd be confusing if itwas like pounds weight and like
pounds of money.
So they had to come up withsomething else.
So they picked a rock.
But I feel like kilograms,kilograms is like widely
(07:00):
accepted in the UK.
Howden's Europe.
Stones is just a very Britishthing.
It feels like, I don't know why.
And I was young.
I was like, oh my God, I'm ninestone.
That's crazy.
This is stupid.
I know, but I don't know whatthat means, but like now you're
asking me, what'd you like,what'd you like change?
If you changed, wait a littlebit, would you be like 9.1
stone?
It's 0.9 0.125.
(07:21):
I'm looking to see how much I amin stone.
I have 12.5 stone.
Oh my God.
Point five.
So if he picked up like 12stones outside, like how bigger
the stones.
I really don't know.
I'm very confused.
I want to know the origins ofthis and the Taylor's cats.
Oh, it says, okay.
A stone is equal to 14 pounds.
Okay.
(07:42):
One stone equals 14, but wheredid was the origin?
Could.
I don't it's too much.
We can research everything,research the topics and have
like a research episode.
Research that come back.
I wrote a thesis.
On everything discussed.
I would love that.
Yeah.
That gives me the egg.
Because what you're going totell me your 14 stone.
That's so stupid.
It's dumb.
No, I know.
I know.
(08:02):
I can agree with you.
I can agree with you on manythings too.
This is.
We're either at war or inagreeance.
So shots were fired at thebeginning and now we've, we've
come back to the table.
That's nice.
Let's see if we go away.
Oh, a hundred percent.
I'm going.
We're going to be the shaft.
Okay.
I moved, Hey, the end of 2022.
but obviously I've been to thestates like a couple of times
(08:24):
before that one thing thatreally pisses me grinds my
fucking gays.
Why are we living in the 21stcentury?
I'm paying for something, ourrestaurant.
You're taking my card away.
Yeah.
Why is it going?
Why is it going to the sidequest?
Why is my, why is myMasterCard's going on a side
quest?
Why is my American express?
(08:44):
That I have earned.
That's dangerous from living inthis country.
Why is my American express doinga little toodaloo to the bottom
off.
And, and being swiped without myvisual guidance And also
chaperoning it to.
The space that it needs to be.
And it's, it's a dangerous gameit's being swiped without your
(09:04):
knowledge.
it freaks me out a little bit.
That's really dumb.
It's actually really dumb assomeone who's also lived in
other countries, like.
Can I just stop?
Can you go?
Get the fuck out of, I thinkalso, also you're bringing me
the receipt.
And I have to do math.
Oh, yeah, But his hips done.
It's done and then sign.

that.
Oh, I had to, I had to searchthrough our fucking drawer to
find a pen.
Exactly.
And I'm here.
I am at the, at the restaurant.
Writing.
Right with my hands.
That's wild.
It is crazy work.
(09:46):
I'm here using pen and paper.

And we need to advance.
As a society.
Cause bring me the machine.
Bring me a machine.

No.
When we came, when we first camehere, we drove through
Mechanicsburg, Ohio.
And we went to a pizza shop andthat was the first time that was
(10:07):
your first experience, likeusing a receipts spot.
Cause I was like, she handed methe receipt and I was like, and
it was, it was.
It was a took go order.
Yeah.
Which should be quick.
Fast paced, transactionalexperience for both parties
included.

So many people that like are inour like close friend group
though from Ohio.
It's choice for sure.
To be from Ohio.
I mean it wasn't their choice.
No, but it was a choice.
Move on.
I don't want to talk about.
Ever again.
Okay.
And it that I believe manypeople on the internet will
(11:34):
relate to from seeing Britishinfluencers and British people
generally.
Um, and their skin tone.
I'm only talking about white.
I've only talked about whiteBritish people for this.
I was like, hope.
I was like, Hmm.
Rain and rain and no, I'm onlytalking about white British
people.
Exactly.
bronzer.
B R O N Z E R too much of it.
(11:56):
The bronzer industry.
The boron.
Okay.
Whatever the fake tan, bronze orindustry is thriving in the UK.
Yeah.
Why don't they just be theircolor.
Because you'd see these like TikTOK influencers, and they're
doing like a fucking makeuproutine.
And then they're doing theirface and their face and you can
see their hand and their faketan is so orange.
It's worse than Donald Trump.
(12:16):
Donald Trump would die for thisspray tab.
It is.
And then their skin.
Spray, do you think it's sprayit's fucking ton a ton into cam.
At a candle, whatever.
Is that nice, nice spray tan.
Is that on the same page?
No, it's literally squeezed.
So I used to go around to myfriends house.
on a Friday night after collegeand we would get ready and she'd
be like, can you tell me back?
(12:37):
Cause she couldn't reach and I'dput the little greasy little
Mitt on and then squeeze alittle juices out the squeezy
tube.
And then it would be like it waslike mahogany.
Right.
And then I'd like, you know,some mother on her back just as
she could have a nice tan backand shoulders for the night out.
And you know what?
Just look slow.
Let's.
She looked like she'd just beenin tenor reef.
There's a difference between agood tan and orange tan.
(12:58):
I'm seeing too many orange tans.
Yes, it was good.
That was a difference.
I'm seeing a lot of orange, youknow, what you see when you see

And I was like, it's really likelovely treat.
It's like the way that the sunis like, It looks really nice.
Theme that was going to sayliterally.
(22:22):
Fell out.
I was like, should we do apositive list and a negative
list?
Like, let's talk about likethings we love and things.
Yay about like the countries.
and Matt sad.
Fuck.
No.
Everyone loves to hate.
So I have some nice things.
This is a podcast of alightening round.
It's a nice thing.
I have a lightening round ofnice things at the end.
Oh, I could do that too.
(22:42):
Okay.
The top of my head.
Oh, that's nice.
Very short.
Yeah, the bulk is negativebecause we live to hold hatred
and, and just violence.
Totally close to.
It's funnier.
Positivity.
Isn't funny.
Positive positivity is out, andthis is a comedy podcast.
Or her comedians apparentlyHardy, har har I have many
things to say.
(23:03):
And I feel like this falls on toa very specific American
demographic.
The use of cutlery.
I think.
We should use the tools at ourdisposal.
If we are eating a dinner.
we require the assistance andaid of shop.
Tool.
But instead of reaching for aknife, we turn the fork to its
side.
(23:23):
And then cut.
Just so we don't have to just sowe don't have to use like a big
baby, like you need like a, likea S.
no.
what's a mixer between a Falcon,a knife.
Is there a tool that exists likethat?
a cork.
fire knife.
Knife.
Yeah.
And I think that is crazybehavior actually.
Great invention.
Has that, has that beeninvented?
(23:43):
I didn't know.
I love that.
I'm talking about you.
Joe Hema you.
Being Bob Barrick and turningyour fork to its side and like
fucking digging in trying toshovel whatever you're trying to
cut.
Like a piece of meat.
It's not a piece of meat.
It's not my fault.
Give you a steak knife at therestaurant, but you're like, I'm
(24:04):
going to turn my doctorate sidelists.
Uh, cut this brisket.
I'm like, I'm like truly, trulyuse all the fullest.
Do that all the time.
I don't do that all the time.
But do you remember when we werein Austin, Texas, and we went to
that barbecue place and I waslike, please, can you go get
some cutlery?
I don't know where it is.
And you came back with two forksand it was like, there was so
much meat on this plate.
Can you please go back and getsome knives, which was the most
(24:24):
tender meat ever, and turns outyou didn't even need your knife.
Cause sometimes you don't need aknife.
It's nice when.
It was a knife when I was an Ican't, change that.
I was born in North Carolina asa good old Southern boy.
Um, say pajamas pajamas.
Why do you say farm like that ona farm, a fall?
(24:46):
That's the, how you speak on afarm.
It used to have such a greataccent when we met.
I know, you know, I really dohappen.
and I was born with one fork inmy hand.
No knife.
Okay.
And you make.
Moving on.
Oh, no, like this one isactually neck.
No, I feel like I would like itto, It's beans on toast.
(25:08):
That takes me out.
I fucking hate that.
I feel like I would like itthough.
You would like it because it'sjust toast butter, I assume.
And.
Looking like beige food you grewup in North Carolina.
All you ate was I can also knockit.
The thing is yours are verypoint.
Okay.
oh, mine.
Wasn't mine.
It was literally an attack.
Just personally on you.
(25:28):
Beans on toast.
I hate that's going to rufflesome feathers back home.
I don't really get it.
I feel like I could like it.
for example, if I think I've hadbeans on toast now I have never
put a can of Heinz beans ontoast.
We went to my mom's house inApril for my brother's wedding.
I feel like she'll kill me.
If she sees me putting beans ontoast, my mum.
Some will not allow that.
Yeah, I know.
We have decorum where we comefrom.
(25:49):
Do you warm the beans up?
You can, you can.
You can too.
You can just open a can of beansand just pour it on.
What people do.
I don't know what people dobecause I don't have it.
Have you ever had it, have hadit?
Yeah, I've had it.
I've had it more.
How have your.
Jacket potato.
Okay.
That I can get fucking behind.
Yeah.
Jacket potato.
full of, it's just a big potatobake sale, but it's bigger.
(26:12):
No.
So it's a big sale.
It's a big potato.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Good potato.
Like smashed.
Well, you like cross it.
Yeah.
You create the cross.
Crucifixion.
Yeah.
And then you bake it, tinfoilall over it.
Yeah, they care.
Yeah.
And then when you open it, it'slike all like in the new.
Misha out and I've seen the, tokind of like opens up on the,
(26:33):
you like, and then you fill itwith.
Slather butter on it.
I think actually British peopleeat more butter.
Than Americans.
Maybe we have more cows.
I don't know.
On the isle of man.
I don't think the hell of minehas cows.
Just Taylor's cats andapparently too many men.
Too many men on the island, man,fix it.
Fix it.
Well beans on toast out.
Do you know what we need to fix?
What.
(26:54):
Do you know what we need to fix?
What.
Why the fuck.
Are we living here?
And I get so confused by thedate all the time.
Come on.
So annoying.
No.
I'm not over it.
It's been two years over.
I'm not over yet because alsoit's so confusing.
It's not, it's so confusing.
Not it, the debt.
What is the date?
January 5th.
When you say out loud.
Fine.
When you write it down one 15.
(27:15):
Okay.
That sounds, that sounds fine.
It literally makes sense becauseyou're saying January 15th, 20,
25, but.
1 15 1 5.
2025.
I'm like, oh, it's the 1st ofMay.
No.
It's the festival because itsupposed to go day, month, year.
Cause it's going smallest tobiggest, but then it goes month,
day, year.
That's crazy.
Okay.
We're fighting back and forthbecause here's something else.
(27:37):
Your calendar, you have acalendar that starts on Monday,
which is this all the week atthe beginning of the, like the,
the, the, the first thing thatyou see is a Monday.
Then it goes to Sunday.
No Sunday goes first and then itgoes to Saturday and then
Sunday.
No.
Yes.
Why Sunday, the start of theweek.
It makes sense.
That's crazy.
Jesus.
It looks Jesus' fault.
(27:58):
Thank God.
I like it.
I fucking hate it.
I'm Christian.
No.
You're not.
No, you are not.
Down to sleep.
Do you know what I saying?
I've had enough of you.
Do you know what I'm saying is Imiss so much wind your neck in,
I sometimes mind your neck then.
(28:19):
Living in the UK.
I mean, living in the U S isthat I can't say some of the
things he used to say, growingup, what does that.
Mind you not kin.
What does that mean?
And your neck.
And would you watch her mouth?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Wind your neck in your being toolike this.
And you need to be more likethis wind, your.
You're being too like, Sit down.
(28:41):
Are you barking on this podcastnow?
Yes, I bark.
the one that I liked the most isspanner in the works.
It's been in the works.
There's a spanner in the works.
I don't know that I love that.
That's a particularly like.
Which means.
A wrench in the.
Production line.
(29:01):
It was a mess.
Okay.
I think it was like a nest quickadd.
cocoa puffs or some bullshit?
or like the, oh no, I think itwas a, you know, the, the, the,
there were like smaller, likeballs of like chocolate and you
just pour milk in them.
That is that.
That's a cocoa puffs, cocoabuff.
Just set that.
No, wait.
No, no, no.
Wait.
The no, not that that's quick.
(29:23):
It was an S you had an escortserial.
I don't think we had an S quickserial then.
Exactly.
It was an escort serial.
Yeah.
And there was a bunch of animalsthat were the, Mascots the
fucking.
The theme of the fucking cerealwith the mascots the cereal.
Tony the tiger.
Oh, yeah, it's not unprecedentedto have that.
I can't remember what theanimals were, but I'm sure there
(29:44):
was like a fucking EMU or anostrich or something.
And You know, they'd havedifferent advertisements for
different, Types of cereal orjust different times of the
year.
They'd have a different one.
the production lines going.
And everyone's like, so happythat their next quick Cyril is
like going, but then thecrocodile was the villain.
And then the EAM, you noticethis and he's like, oh no, this
is bad.
Or in the works.
And I always remembered that.
(30:06):
And you know what, and I'vealways said that I was like,
where is the EMU coming in?
The story or maybe it was acoyote.
I don't know, but these animalsand they're all so stressed out
about the fact that thecrocodile had put a spanner in
the production line to stop thenest quick from being made
because he wanted the nest quickto stop being manufactured and
distributed to the generalpublic.
(30:26):
Yeah.
And that was a really traumatictime as a child.
When I saw that I was like, thiscrocodile is a piece of shit.
I want my next quick, got doneit.
It's crocodiles, fucking it upfor everyone.
Why the fuck do we have thewicked soundtrack up here?
Because.
so if you didn't know, if you'relistening to this podcast on
audio only change our vinyls outevery single episode, because we
also are on YouTube watches onYouTube.
(30:47):
today's is wicked because it isa story of a British icon and an
American icon coming togetherand being best friends.
Just like us.
question neither in the British.
So the idea is literally.
The British, oh, I forgot anAri.
He is literally.
(31:08):
I was like neither of theAmerican or British.
I was like, Either American orparole.
No, I don't know.
I was just talking about.
Come on, watch the movie andthen I forgot about it.
All right.
Well that's why.
Okay.
Oh, yeah.
Wait.
I know, that's why I picked it.
I said it before.
I know it was like, what thefuck?
I literally picked the wickedsound up because it's literally
the story of our life.
I feel like personality wise,you would be Elphaba Glinda.
(31:31):
Really?
Yeah.
Oh yeah.
No No for sure.
For sure.
For sure.
I'm the golden retriever.
And you're the black cat.
Yeah.
And the black cat is alphabet.
And then Glen does the goldenretriever.
That's my tagline.
we're going to get political.
I'm going to get political withus.
We can get political, Youdecided in the old, old time of
the 1980s.
To have your first female primeminister.
(31:54):
You had your first.
You had the first woman primeminister, such a big
accomplishment.
We haven't even got there.
We just, we just missed out onhours and you chose Margaret
Thatcher and may she be.
Just enjoying the warmth ofwhere she is right now.
It's fucking boiling down there.
Do you chose Margaret Thatcheras your first female prime
(32:16):
minister.
and then you chose two more.
And they were both crazy.
And what was the first one?
Same series.
Theresa May.
And then the other one wholives.
Trust Liz trust who the lettuceout, outlasted her.
Remember that the less.
So there was a, when thosetrusts became prime minister,
there was a thing on X,whatever, whatever they, it was
a pick, there was a livestreamof a lettuce.
(32:38):
Well, the head of lettuce.
Like 10 days.
And they were like, this head oflettuce is going to last longer
than Liz trust.
And it did.
So that's my EQ is that you'vehad three female prime
ministers, three, so manyoptions for really great ones.
And also your, a men primeministers have been pretty shut
to, yeah, I will say like mostof your prime ministers
actually, I feel like have notbeen great.
but the female ones.
(32:59):
Let's dive into Americanpolitics.
This place is a fucking.
Just a fucking shitstorm ofshit.
Isn't it.
So I'm the shit.
We're filming this episode onJanuary seven.
Yesterday marked four yearssince an insole reaction.
Yeah.
I think that is one of the mostinsane things.
Kind of crazy.
Isn't it?
(33:20):
In modern history, one of themost wild.
Things I have witnessed on livetelevision, watching that old
lady climb and then full off ofthat off.
One click.
I'm the man is like trying toget her and then she's like
climbing on the wall and shefalls.
Oh, I take.
Oh, my tray yesterday.
I I thought you were talkingabout MIMO.
No, I love her.
(33:41):
I love MIMO MI mama.
She's like, I'm just happy to behere.
I'm a fly with her Americanflag.
At my flag and I'm starting tobe here.
Do you know who she reminds meof the grandma from carves, the
cowardly dog.
She was running me off creepylittle fucking mouth.
Yeah, creepy smile.
Yeah.
Really freaked me out.
I could sit here.
And divulge all my inner hatredfor the country's political
(34:05):
system.
What the fuck is the electoralcollege.
I know now, cause you know, I'vebeen, I've been known.
I've been known.
It's crazy.
I did think it was a physicalplace growing up.
Like we would watch videos oflike how the elections worked
and it showed a physical place.
Of the electoral college.
And I was like, it's definitely.
There's a, there's a universitysomewhere.
(34:27):
Shit's universities.
all they do.
They don't wait for every fouryears.
Sleep for four years.
And then all of a sudden they'relike Nosferatu for four years.
They come out.
And then they starting toevolve.
Vote for Trump or call by law.
(34:47):
Ty is sad.
I will say the only thing thatbrings our two countries
together.
As the fact that both of ourpolitics are entertaining.
It's kind of sad actually.
I have been unentertained forthe last four years.
I've enjoyed it.
I've enjoyed it.
I've enjoyed it.
No power politics.
Yeah.
Bite on entertaining.
Yeah.
You know, let the, let the, let.
(35:09):
The works and the gears spin asthey were at the production line
continuum.
spanner.
Yeah.
It's not the production line.
Just like just flow.
Let me not have to think toomuch, you know, let me not have
to worry.
Wait, I have got some more, I'vegot one more.
I can do two quick fire round.
Let's.
And we just got really heavywith politics for a second, and
I really could lighten it backup.
(35:31):
I could really.
Uh, gaps in between your toiletstalls are too high.
Oh.
Oh, God, if you're in theairport, do you.
I mean, I agree.
The first, experience you havewhen you come into the country,
you go to the bathroom.
And then you're faced with thesemetal, metal walls.
Yeah.
Which.
It's jarring.
It feels like a cage.
(35:51):
Walls the walls.
Of the toilet stalls are sohigh.
Why can I see your ankles?
Why can I catch a glimpse of youNakey in that?
Guy's crazy.
It's a little glimpse.
A little too much skin.
I'm seeing too much skin as Iwalked by the store.
That's freaky.
It is a bit freaky behavior.
Another area of the UK is.
I feel like we've progressedmore than you on this, on this
(36:12):
stance, but the skinny jeansepidemic.
It's still has still taken theUK by storm.
And the UK is still dealing withthat.
Okay, I'm gonna stop you rightthere.
When it comes except for London.
No.
I've had it with you.
How fucking dare you sit hereand your high horse.
From which you should not be.
(36:33):
To talk to me.
my country about fashion when weare.
The.
Epicenter.
Of culture.
And.
So you're talking about London.
No, I've been to Manchester.
Yeah.
Fashion-wise no I'm talkingabout skinny jeans.

Literally we live in the mostunfashionable city in the
country.

How many people in this country?
White, skinny jeans.
I didn't say we didn't have aproblem with it.
I said, do you have a problemwith it?
And it's true.
Oh, you were talking about twoyears ago when you were then
everyone, everyone was wearingskinny jeans still, maybe.
Yeah.
and this teaches us to sometimeskeep, Wretched thoughts to
ourselves.
Don't insult my country likethat again.
The whole point of this episodeis to share our opinions.

the world.
I hate skinny jeans.
We've all been there.

Th th the Trojan war.
We can talk about that for asecond.
I was once reading the, the.
The song of the case.
Once upon a time.
Are we talking about the Trojan?
Song of Achilles.
For the first time.
And it was like, this is such agreat book.
Look at these two little gays.
Look at these two little gayboys having the best time of
(41:07):
their life and all of a suddenthis war.
It lasted.
Decades.
I was reading this book and thepage after page after page was
just war upon war.
And it was the same war.
Nothing happened.
For ages, was there annoying?
Not like this podcast.
And you know what?
I'm a little annoyed at you tobe honest.
Oh, you're fine.
(41:27):
To be honest with you.
You'll be fine.
We have reached the point of theepisode where we love to play a
little game.
A dinner table game.
today's game two truths and alie, two truths and one lie.
You go first, me first.
Minor kind of lame because I'mnot good at lying.
I'm not a good liar.
(41:47):
So two truths and one lie.
One truth.
All the truth.
All of them are true.
You're an idiot.
So dumb.
What the fuck was that?
So the first truth.
We'll be the whole point of thegame.
Cause you're supposed to tellme.
Three things.
And I'm supposed to guess whichone is the lie?
(42:10):
You thought king DeMoss.
Fuck is wrong with you.
You're supposed to tell me.
So we statements and they'resupposed to be anonymous.
You're not supposed to tell mewhich one.
You fucking.

So I played piano in highschool.
I had 10 cats growing up and Iauditioned for American idol
(42:32):
when I was in school.
You.
Did not have 10 cats growing up.
I did have 10, 10.
It's an estimate, but it was alot.
That was 10, 10, 10 plusactually.
Oh, my God.
So why do they all live?
So Ross around, they mostly diedbecause they ran into it in the
road.
So we just stray cats that youparent, your parents took it.
(42:53):
And it was the same cat that hadmultiple litters.
Cause it wasn't like a cat thatwe got fixed.
Oh, I thought you just had like10 unrelated.
No 10 plus cats.
So what was my play?
The piano.
No.
A company that didn't get thatright.
I know.
Well, it's like, you couldn'thave had 10 cats.
That's crazy.
Even after eight years, there'sstill more to know in my mind, I
was like, this is so hard to dobecause.
(43:14):
I I, every single thought thatever pops into my head, whether
it's that tree lookingglistening outside, or I don't
know what else, if I hadrandomly burst out in.
There's lots of myths.
Fucking spam Trojan war.
The Trojan war.
Every thought that goes throughmy brain flies out my mouth.
And to hear it until eightdrums.

I knew you'd never broken abone.
I've never broken a bone.
Stitches.

in the same.
You can not break a bone andstill get stitches.
Oh, you're right.

You would not be doing that.
(44:57):
I know.
