Speaker 5 (01:53):
I'm writing to inform you of my resignation from the
position of executive producer.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
You know when you're holding onto a bitter news and
and you're holding onto it and you just you walk
around with your chest just slightly more puffed out, just
just everything is springing your step. Just everything in your
life is just a little bit more exciting because you're
holding onto something special. I do know that feeling, and
you know that you're going to share it, and you
know that you can share.

Speaker 3 (02:19):
Oh there's the other bit of news that you can't share.

Speaker 2 (02:22):
Information that you've got that you can't share, that somehow
emboldens you personally.

Speaker 3 (02:29):
Yeah, but I can't. I've got to.

Speaker 5 (02:31):
I don't ever tell me a sacred because I'll tell everyone,
so I can't.

writing to inform you my resignation from the post of
executive producers. I know how to get Bridget's wells as

(03:07):
a made bastard.

Speaker 5 (03:09):
I think a little bit of context on Friday, Friday,
first of July twenty twenty six.

Speaker 3 (03:17):
Yeah, I failed in my duties as executive producer.

Speaker 4 (03:21):
Failed to a little bit of contract. It's nice to

Speaker 3 (04:09):
Yes, if that keyboard has crop. If it doesn't, I
couldn't do it.

Speaker 2 (04:15):
It's the long multi a.

Speaker 4 (04:19):
Exactly halfway through the year.

Speaker 2 (04:21):
Yeah, maybe like a little drive by on him at
the same time, like, I don't know, what do you think?

it's probably only right that I'm honest as I leave. Yeah,
I mean, because you're dishonest the whole time you're here,
so it's only right that I'm honest as I leave.
I'll give you some honest.

Speaker 2 (12:49):
Changing your name to become a singer.

Speaker 3 (12:50):
Surely wouldn't you be Bowl selector? Why?

Speaker 2 (12:53):

Speaker 3 (13:00):
Is it a cassette?

Speaker 2 (13:02):
Quite a cool image?

Speaker 4 (13:04):
It was the one where he's in a white T shirt,
he's got a beanie on, he's got his eyes closed,
he's holding his headphones. We should do a shot of
mania like that. What so?

Speaker 2 (13:12):
What years us two thousand and what five?

Speaker 3 (13:15):
I reckon two ninety nine? Is that?

Speaker 2 (13:18):

aged okay, But look at the imagery and stuff. It's
looking okay for two thousand.

Speaker 4 (13:29):

Speaker 5 (14:15):
Selet written by Tony Brisco, Craig David and Mark Hill,
who sounds like jeweler brother of Michael Well Jewelry, Mark
Hill producer.

Speaker 3 (14:31):
He went into the UK garage.

Speaker 2 (14:33):
What's he up to? What's Craig?

Speaker 3 (14:35):
I watched I watched Craig the other day.

Speaker 4 (14:38):
You never call it Craig.

Speaker 5 (14:40):
Craig gaved him Craig. He's got a real posh extent too.
He and he was like rapping and singing, but then
he would have to run back round behind the DJ
booth and then like put his next song on like
it was on Spotify, off an iPad and then run
back around the front and start rapping. It's up there
working like a single mother. It was actually quite sad
to watch he can still sing.

Speaker 2 (15:00):
Is he in a relation? These are the main questions.
Is he in a relationship? He is single? Not surprisingly,
he's been making love to people basically daily.

Speaker 5 (15:10):
You don't keep a relationship making love to people you
met on the train on on Monday.

Speaker 2 (15:16):
The singer's historically kept his private life very guarded and
recently is he's taken a step back from dating to
focus on healing and personal growth. Oh God, got to
respect it and he's on a celibacy journey.

Speaker 3 (15:28):
Bullshit.

Speaker 2 (15:29):
Yeah, he's on because he's just had so much sex
that he's realized.

Speaker 3 (15:38):
Yeah, sorry and sell it on Sunday.

Speaker 2 (15:41):
He's had a few short term relationships, is he like guys?

Speaker 5 (15:45):
Well, when you said that he's kept his personal life
particularly arded.

Speaker 2 (15:53):
Doesn't feel that way, doesn't it. But it doesn't say
that he kept us. He's done the shadow where Okay,
it doesn't say anything about that. Has he got a wife? No, No,
he's very private. Keeps talking about how private he is,
but his relationships. What did Elton John have to say
about Craig David. If there is a better singer in

(16:15):
England than Craig David, then I am Margaret Thatcher. Wow,
that's high praise coming from Mountain. How wealthy is Craig David?

Speaker 3 (16:25):
Not?

Speaker 2 (16:25):
From what I've seen, he has a net worth of
roughly eighteen million New Zealand dollars. Yeah, I think he's
worth more than that. Surely, I think. Who are Craig
David's it's girlfriends, Steve, No, that's not what it is.

Speaker 3 (16:44):
Well.

Speaker 4 (16:45):
When the debut seminal album Born to Do It came
out in nineteen ninety nine. I wanted to do it, brother,

to do it?

Speaker 5 (16:56):
Craig David followed by Tony Street, Georgia, Burt Drax Projects.

Speaker 3 (17:03):

Speaker 5 (17:04):
Big Murler, Yeah, Big Merla follows Craig Big Merles. I

is some singing song. I thought this is his. Miss
Big Mills is a friend of mine.

Speaker 2 (17:15):
Singer and songwriter Craig David lives in North London. He
did relocate to Miami for he did for several years.

Speaker 5 (17:22):
Yeah, he he because I used to follow him and
he does. He would just be standing on a beach
or something and then he would just sing like a
couple of lines from the song, just standing on the beach.
Have you seen Train? Is the other one to follow
that guy from Train. His whole social media thing is
he just sings the chorus from Drops of Jupiter just

(17:42):

Run of Me?

Speaker 2 (17:52):
Craig David specially, did she decline?

Speaker 7 (17:59):
