Speaker 1 (00:09):
Hello, you're right. Yeah, we're back. Yeah, we are back
in our brand new studio.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
It's been a while.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
I'd say studio is a bit echo. We we as sorry share.
Speaker 3 (00:20):
That we're in a half built office block.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
It's a building site we're on essentially, Yeah, a.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
Bit is a building site. Yeah yeah, it's And what
we were going to.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
Do is wait because we were planning on building a studio,
the studios a professional careers, right, big relaunch with with
you know, we started podcasting decades ago. Its front Runners
if you will, over a decade ago, two.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
Thousand and nine, eight eight before before it was very
wise to podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
We started doing it.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Yeah, too soon, it would be rich by now if
we started later.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
Anyway, we've come full circle and were now got our
own studio.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
In a round about what.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
We're taking too long? This is this, I said, let's
just spray paint a sign and and and get cracking
with the podcast. So we're back and we've done loads.
A lot has happened in our life.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
First of all, I'm trying to establish when the last
one war.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Over a year ago was it? Who was the last epic?
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Was it? James?
Speaker 3 (01:17):
Didn't we do like an intermediary one at the start
of the year or in summer.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
I can't remember done nothing this year anyway.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
I suppose you just look at you on Spotify.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
But let's call this Manhood version two point note. We're
back and we've got that. We've got this nice route.
I mean, I say it's not nice yet, but gradually
as the series progresses you will see and hear improvements.
You will We're going to try and I don't think
we'll ever get rid of that.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Now we've got it.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
I do quite like that.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
That is actually line of pain. You don't when the
builders draw a red line and you drive when they're
marking out.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
Obviously you're if you're listening, you don't know what we're
talking about. But we've made a sign for our new
studio that is just made out of old Amazon boxes
and spray paint. But we did have real stencils like Banksy.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
Yeah we did. Yeah, but it was very coupled together.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
So the idea was that Dom'm going to come over today,
We're going to record an episode, but nothing was ready
by the table. Bought a couple of new mics, and
we found some red floor pain and some cardboard and
this is where we're.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
At, and it looks I like it. I mean, this
really is a visual representation of our life, not like
the podcast is a mess.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Why did we stop?
Speaker 3 (02:28):
I think we owe the listeners and explanations to why
we stopped laziness.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Okay, was it laziness?
Speaker 1 (02:35):
I don't know why did we?
Speaker 3 (02:37):
I think we always said if we ever got too
busy in our life, one of the first things to go, unfortunately,
would be the podcast.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
Which isn't what our loyal listeners want to hear.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
So yeah, we dropped its straight away, but.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
We realized there was a bit of an appetite for
it because people kept coming up to us and saying,
where's the podcast? I mean, granted, fifty or more of
them were our friends who just wanted to know how
we were.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
But but we're back. We're mugging to try. So we're
gonna try and put effort in. The purpose of doing
the studio here at my offices was to try and
come back every week. So we've got a bass, it's
all so ready to go somewhere we want to come.
We're going to create the environment. We're doing it on
zoom before and I don't know about you.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
Need chemistry, don't. We've got to be in physically together.
We do to be able to touch like this and hold hands. God,
your hands are big, aren't they?
Speaker 3 (03:24):
Hands at a bar in Leads two weeks ago again
and they bunched me square in the face because of
my sausage fingers. What I were at the bar and
I put the hand on the bar, blooming it look
at size of those things like sausages. I went, all right, sorry,
were blooming? He what you in a sausage and mashes?
Making a sausage jokes?
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Why did he try to?
Speaker 3 (03:43):
So I went, okay, make take it easy. Let's let's
look at your hands then, and he got his hands
out and they're like like, I've got small hands.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
No, you'll are long though, slender man.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
But my hands look bigger. They look not like normal
size for a person on that side, but this side thinner.
How is that? That sounds like sometimes optical illusion?
Speaker 3 (04:04):
Thin small knuckles, small back hands snurled like logs, like twigs.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
So anyway, so he goes.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
He kept going about myssage fingers, and I went, all right, mate,
very funny, hilarious, I've got fat fingers. So what my
wife's happy. That's all I can say. Okay, So then
I walked away and he grabbed me back, scruff and
get back here. Now pull my back to what He went,
we're having a drink together, you and your sausage fingers
and me.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
You're having a drink. I want to see that.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
I want to see where were you in the wild way,
because I want to see your sausage fingers around a
pink glass.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
He said, I'm not going to drink with you. You're clearly delusional.
Off your like King Charles's.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Did they think they were like King Child?
Speaker 2 (04:41):
I don't know what. They're not even that big. They're big,
but they're not.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
To get away unscared.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
No, I didn't. So then I went away again.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
Yanked me back again, and I went, and I'm thinking
I'm going to get one of my dad always told
me I always.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Get the first hitting. Yeah, first punch, and usually it's
a head button.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
My dad always said, either kicking the balls or head butt.
Don't as soon as you raise around, they're going to flinch,
but you can't. You can't flinch your head. But it's
apparently it's really.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
I can't imagine your dad having that conversation.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
Did always get the head.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
So anyway, I were ready for it, and luckily someone
else came in. One of another guy acrosted all night,
pulled them away and said he come over and look
at it, and then I managed to get away. But
I nearly Basically they've got to fight over mas sage fingers.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
I'm sorry about that, sor Right, I mean lots.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
I mean a lot, a lot of a lot of
other stuff has happened.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
It's been a busy here, that's been.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
What if we've we've got stories to tell you, We've.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Got's got a list? An't you done?
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Why do you do? Do the list? I've made notes
during our time off.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
What do you read the list? I think I'm not
going to.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
Read the list out in its entirety, but I will
pick something out. Fine. The first question i'd written down
is do you think you could exist if your birth
was never registered? So so your parents had you and
they're like, I'm not going to tell anyone. Could you
live alike?
Speaker 2 (05:55):
What can you do that you could?
Speaker 1 (05:57):
If you it's probably illegal.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
I'll tell you what, Sarah Peace, our school had a
bed had a baby in her bunk beds.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Right, you need to add Lords of More contest.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
When she was younger, she had a secret baby right
when she were fourteen, just named her.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Yeah, I don't think she called her Pierce.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
I think again. Anyway, she had a secret baby in
a bump beds when she's fourteen, which I don't believe.
I don'tbelieve that she still got bump beds at fourteen anyway,
And she did.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
That's the most unbelievable thing that happened.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
And she had the baby in the bunk bed, not
in the bed, but like from a parent, from her
parents for months?
Speaker 2 (06:37):
Was she not showing no, but she didn't know.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
She said she didn't know she was pregnant, and then this
this does happen, This does happen.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
But was feeding the you know, she was a big girl.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
So did her parents not hear it crying or anything?
Speaker 3 (06:50):
Well, no, I think there was. It was a single mom
scenario and I think had a few drinks in her
and stuff. So she so she basically raised his baby
in a bedroom secretly. So I wonder if she she
registered it initially. Would That's unbelievable, isn't it. I'd love
to know a little update how she's getting on now.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Because that kids like to get her on the podcast,
that kid's going to be in his twenties. Well, no,
she was fourteen.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
Oh sorry, I don't know. I don't know how to
exaggerate that point. Your twenties is but yeah, could you exist? No,
if you didn't register yourself, well you have a fake
idea eventually, wouldn't you.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
Yeah, but you won't be able to get credit card.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
We're talking about now. This is not the point, is it.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
Yeah? The point was could you could you?
Speaker 2 (07:31):
I think you're bullet pointing it.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
No, No, that we could.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
Okay, the question is out.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
There now as well. Get it spoken.
Speaker 3 (07:38):
This is the problem with our mental problems. You know,
without my inatience.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
You're undiagnosed, the ADHD diagnosed.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
We literally can't bullet point things we can't know.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
But that's why I have to. Yeah, that's why I
have to. So part of the thing with ADHD is
got to start writing stuff down and actually start adding
stuff because my life and it all makes sense. Since
I've been diagnosed with HD, my entire life has been
me like a daddy long leg is banging around the walls.
I just carry on and till I meet some resistance.
(08:10):
Deal with it and then go on to the next.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Thing, is that is that with that the diagnosis from
the doctor.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Like a dead Well No, I mean that's I'm trying
to dumb it down for you, but to make it
easy to understand. So and then all of a sudden
stuff makes sense. But I still I can't be as
right and stuff down. But when we decided we were
going to do manhood again, yeah, we've done quite a
lot of stuff, haven't we. I mean yeah, yeah. Also
with that holidays saying we've been at Saint Andrew's on
the golf kids kids are a year older and the
(08:37):
teenagers now are getting spotty and cheeky, that sort of thing.
So there's lots of I needed to start making making notes.
And the first thing I thought was could you exist?
Because obviously, you know we've been, we've been for a
lot in our lives, and I was dreaming about just
living living off grid. So what you're saying further to
(08:58):
that question, actually, could you these days live off grid?
Speaker 3 (09:02):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (09:02):
Yeah, easily do it right now?
Speaker 1 (09:03):
Because when I was a kid, I used to think,
like I went on a school trip to single Borough.
I was thinking I might just Livia the Caves no
can get me. Could you do that?
Speaker 3 (09:16):
No, you couldn't because you been missing child. Police will
be after you.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
I mean, if you didn't believes as a child, No, that's.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
True, it's possible.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
If you didn't believe. We were filming on a building site.
You can probably hear some going off because again you
can't see this, and we will get we will include
it on the video. A little snippet. But our door
is literally a piece of plywood crossed up, has walls.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
It's got sound proof walls. Apparently there's no ceiling.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
I mean, we should rename this podcast ADHD because we've
literally just skipped to another subject. But living also just
explains essentially you never existed. Girl gets pregnant, you're born,
never registered, government don't know you exist.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
You can't.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
You're gonna have to bleep that name out again, all right,
kind offer, But but could you exist?
Speaker 2 (10:04):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (10:05):
So at what point are you aware of this? You
have an upbringing because you need a job, but I'll
live off the land, yeah, because it could easy. You
get raised absolutely.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
In the UK. There's nothing cool to be raised by
you like Morgan getting raised by gorillas, wolves, wolves. What
are you gonna get raised?
Speaker 2 (10:23):
By the fox.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
But say, for instance, your golf grid in the Yorkshire Dales,
what's what you get raised by sheep? The occasional deer orchestral.
Speaker 3 (10:35):
To be raised back jump off a cliff. But no,
but that in the point is that The point is
like could you lift off?
Speaker 2 (10:41):
What's there? So if you're if you, if you're bought right,
you're born.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
In the field and you have your parents left you
suck it on some grass or whatever. But you managed
to make it to a toddlers stage, you're going to
literally gravitate towards.
Speaker 1 (10:51):
Something out at.
Speaker 3 (10:53):
Yorkshireels is not wild enough eventually going to bump into
a farmer.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Yeah, it's going to be England big enough.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
Knowing, But I think I think it personally, I would
absolutely love it. Like dream scenario for me, like living
living down down in tools and like trying to survive.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Yeah, yeah, I love it, brilliant think of the weight loss.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
It's not practical and it's not great for the family
just to say, right, we're gonna go live on reset
of your mind, but it's a great research when you.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
Love to reset your mind. Do you ever think there's
fucking there's too much in you?
Speaker 2 (11:24):
I do think that.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
No, I don't. I don't mean just about subjects. I
mean in my life. There is literally too much to
think about.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
What you've said before, you have said there's too much
in your head. Isn't there too much going on? And
if if you if you take something on, someone's got
to go out, like you know, you've got like a
it's like a yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
But the difference and I think I genuinely think this
is because you maybe have ADHD traits as well, but
it's also probably because we've known each other a long time.
You understand me, I I understand you.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
But there are people that don't like There are people
that find us annoying out that there are people that
don't like us, or people maybe think we're arragant, but
we're not ragon shy. Yeah, people get mixed up between
because we're shy until we've not wormed our weigh in.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
But I think I think you're shy.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
Yeah, you're not as shy. Actually I can be. I
can be shy, but people mistake it as arrogance.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
Do you know what?
Speaker 1 (12:15):
Do you know?
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Why? Though?
Speaker 3 (12:16):
No, if you were at a bar right and you
were stood there and you're looking around and you've got
chronic shyness approaching a woman.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
Yeah, yeah, I still.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
This is now. I don't exist now by the Yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:28):
But if you're at a bar and it's not people
would look at younger, look at that arrogance.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Yeah, but you're inside, you're just like.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
I don't know if you remember this. I don't know
if you were there or not. When we worked at
the Media Museum, an outside company came in to talk
to us all it's all a bit of training for
front of house staff, but a bit of backstory. Tom
and I used to work at the National Media Museum
in Bradford Is where we met and discovered our love
of each other and we wanted to make a show together. Anyway,
an outside company came in to talk to the staff
(12:57):
about this is how you deal with people, this is that.
How do you feel about working here?
Speaker 2 (13:01):
I do remember this year.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
And one woman said, tell us one thing, write down
on a post it note, one thing. We'll put them
all up on the wall and we'll discuss them together
as a as a big group. And I and then
everyone wrote down their stuff and I thought, oh, this
is nice. We'll write something down about ourselves. That she
was like something that people don't understand or is misunderstood.
She meant about the museum. I thought, so I wrote
(13:28):
down I think people think I'm arrogant, but actually I'm
just really shy. And I put it on the wall
and she read her out and she's pulling all the
post it notes off the wall and she's going, oh,
people don't understand exhibit on the first floor.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
People think the museum, you've got to pay for it.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Yeah, and what can you do differently about that? And
then the next one was like, oh, people don't you know,
often complain that there aren't any toilets on the phone?
Oh okay, and if you got to mine, and she went,
people think I'm arrogant, but actually I'm shy. Hmm okay.
Who who wrote this one? And I was just like
put my hand up, really sheepishly, and she went, Okay,
that's important, isn't it?
Speaker 2 (13:58):
That you know?
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Staff, we understand ourselves.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Try to laughing.
Speaker 3 (14:02):
You completely misunderstood the task at hand.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
But then afterwards, a couple of staff members did come
up to me and say, oh, that's such a sweet
thing to ever and it's so nice, so sweet.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
It was one of them, and ended up marrying one
of them. Yeah, yeah, one of those people that rum life.
But whatever, Well that's that's happened on it.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
In the year. Is still single?
Speaker 1 (14:21):
Ready to mean, still still single? Still being dirting here,
that's all happened.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
And I think and I think we need to, you know,
preface this, but I think we need to speak about.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
Some of those dates.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Not now, fine, let's do it now.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
Then I think that because we're tearing up the sea
the series, I think.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
There was getting older now.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
So I think there was a reluctance you can bear
in mind.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
To talk about date.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
Yeah, And I'm still not going to date. I'm still
not going to anyone because that's that's disrespectful.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
But yes we can.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
We can talk a little bit about them.
Speaker 3 (14:54):
And you also, you don't go into like the nitty gritty,
I mean a bit. Me don't really want to know
the nitty gritty.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
No, we're not going to talk about love making it that.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
I mean, you can you know, you can skirch.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
Out to be a fine thing. I'm win kid.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
Stop Okay, So we'll try it.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
Yeah, and and like the so definitely the day and
we need to talk about that one hundred percent we
need to talk about mental health, big, big one.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
Let's talk about it.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
And I think like kids getting older.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
Yeah, that's a big that's that's on this list. Was
getting older.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
I was getting older.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
Although let's touch on this a little bit. Really lucky
I was able to take Tendy to New York. As
a kid, like my dream would have been to go
to New York. Parents couldn't really afford it, so never
never got the opportunity to do things like that. Now
I'm in a position where I earn decent money. Got
I was able to take Teddy to New York. Amazing trip.
We'll get into it in another episode. But you know,
(15:50):
occasionally have a bit of a crisis about your looks.
Thought you were getting older. My hair's turning white. I'm thinking,
do I keep the beard? I'm starting to look like
Santa Claus. It ages me in the bed, all of
this stuff. And I was walking through New You're literally
opposite the hotel where home alone. Yes, yeah, and it's right.
I was walking down that road.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
Donald Trump comes out of that hotel.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
There was there.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
There's like a really fancy apple Stone one side and
the hotel on the other. And I'm just walking with
Teddy and I'm just waiting to cross a road and
these two fellas come up to me and go, oh
my god, have you ever thought a bad madeling? And
I was like what? And I said, oh, well, oh no,
I'm like no, you know, I'm not a single down
and all that, and just on holiday, and then went,
(16:30):
oh my god, you should totally get into maddling if
you ever think about doing it, here's our card. You'd
be great, you'd be so good. Oh my god, you're
English as well. It's so great. We're looking for madals
just like you. And I was fucking buzzing. I couldn't
believe it. I was like, I've still got it.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
Were you like, I'll stop you there? Granton Catalog, two
thousand two.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
But I was like, my my, looks haven't faded quite yet.
I'm in this big, amazing country. And these two fellas
anyway looked at the business card over forties modeling. I'm
only in my thirties double edged sword.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
That's fine, though, isn't it, Like yeah, if someone if
someone offered you a gig, too, was over thought his modeling.
You're on a technicality a car false advertising. You still
take it one. But can you imagine if you'd seen
me modeling? Were they both good looking as well?
Speaker 1 (17:12):
Yeah? Good looking? Gaze yeah yeah yeah, style.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
Yeah, just your impression. I can picture him.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
Now, yeah, picture fairly.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
Probably a couple.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Maybe they looked like they ran a modeling agency. The
thing is that they've been absolutely good.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
Yeah. I think it's had to be ugly with model.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
Yeah, they'd have been gutted though, if they'd been like
if I'd gone there and they'd seen my actual body,
because I'm like a mixture of like e T and
mister burns them. Listen, I've let myself go over the year.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
I think we should have junk through. I also think,
do you remember when we did back back the where
like a swear jar.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
You think we should bring back the swag.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
Not sweat. I think we should have a jar for
mentioning my hairline.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
Now. The thing is that it's not being brought at once,
and I wasn't gonna no.
Speaker 3 (17:59):
I thought, well, coming around to that when you mentioned
the grain as I thought it might come down.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
I mean, we've gone over it before, and we don't
want to know too much about getting.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Out because Lloyd's Lloyd's had a hair transplant and.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Yeah, we're gettinghim on. We'll get this series. Lloyd Griffith's
going to join us.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
That's the most nervous I'll ever be for anything, because well, it's.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
Like, let me try and explain it.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
Okay, it's like the elephant in the room, and he's
going to be turning up. He's just gonna be looking
at my hairline thinking when a you're getting yours done,
or to that effect.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
And we'll save it because when we get him on,
we will talk to about it. And we know we've
had my old boss garethon to talk about a hair transplant.
But Lloyd has got a bit of a profile on
touchial media, so he's definitely coming on to help us
proughout the podcast. It's really funny and he's had a
hair transplant, so we'll talk to him about that.
Speaker 3 (18:41):
Yeah, he's had a racing driver going on top gear
and not right driving.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
A river because you've been talking about it for years.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
And I have I've forget about this giant.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
To be fair, the mullet has added a few years on.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
I've got a new product.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
Have you say save it?
Speaker 2 (18:57):
I'll save it.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
I'll save it, save it, because everybody knows on the world,
in this world that the products don't work. You think
it's you think it's working.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
I'm I'm like blown away.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
Really, honestly, when did you start using it? Why you're
saying really, but when did you start using it?
Speaker 3 (19:13):
I'm not expecting you to be blown away? My blown
away is differently you're blown away.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
Have you noticed a natural difference? Yeah, I woke up
blooming Bob Marley, they all fall out again.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
No, in my head, it woke up.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
But it's if it's pasibly thicker to you because actually,
and this is looking at the camera over there now,
but I know that this show is scotty all over
the places. It's kind of a preview for what's to come.
We just wanted to get back in a room, get started.
If it's scary, don't apologize, But it's previewing it. It's
previewing what's to come.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
Is it is?
Speaker 1 (19:44):
But you do notice, You do notice different things about yourself,
don't you someone looking at us?
Speaker 2 (19:50):
No, I'm looking at I'm not.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
I'm gonna I'm looking at that later.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
But you do notice things about yourself that other people
wouldn't notice, like when you're looking at me like, well
I've got a little pimple, us another hair or getting whiter.
Other people don't notice that. And generally other people don't
give a ship, but they do when you got food.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
On your mouth.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
Yeah, Jason had a crumb on his chin yesterday. Football
kids football, and it was their own game.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
Really And I didn't say O, people love it?
Speaker 3 (20:15):
But why do they? Why do they not sell? You
know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (20:17):
I think people love it when there's something that can
get you with likely got a crumb on your mouth,
better than you divorced and better than you that sort
of thing I think people get.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
And you know what as well?
Speaker 3 (20:31):
He had he had he had ketch up on his
mouth there and I'm thinking.
Speaker 1 (20:36):
Yeah, you mentioned that. I like, mate, because you could
just say have you eaten? On the way over?
Speaker 2 (20:40):
What's nobody looked pretty love? I love Jason should be
shouldn't be talking about it, Jesson.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
But you should have mentioned it to his face.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
I know I felt bad.
Speaker 3 (20:50):
We're watching kids football. It was difficult, it was tricky,
but you know what, kids football could be a whole episode.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
To be honest with you, Jesus.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
Christ, Well tell you what. Let's because this happened a
few weeks ago now and we don't want too much
time to have passed. Let's tell everyone about the Saint
Andrew's trip, because that was unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
Yes, St Andrews's class.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
That was I mean I was there. I was there
to work on a jolly one way. Well, I was
lured there under the promise of oh, we're going to
film this, this and this, and then when I got there,
Tom was like me, you pub we went to. There's
a pub on sat Andrew's golf course. We spent eleven
hours in there one day, so much time in there
that they named a.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
Dish after us, Sausage fingers special.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
No, no, it was haggis chipped with cheese on.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
We ordered off the off peace of which I never like.
I don't know my doing ann as a chef, but
they did. They did haggis and chips, and I went,
can you put a bit of cheese on there?
Speaker 2 (21:46):
In peppercorn sauce.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
It was unbelievable. It was other people coming into the pub.
We're talking like professional golfers, celebrities, were asking us what
that dish was, Tom, as if it was some sort
of like God Ramsey Special.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
I'll try to sell.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
So, as you might not know, I've got a golf
business going on with philm the sponsor of the show.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
So it's a golf similar it's a bar. We we
sell the golf products.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Bart actually is the sponsored Dios Golf or auto Flex.
Speaker 3 (22:16):
Yeah, Dios Golf probably right, And so we uh little
production meeting the witnessed. So we got invited by another
podcast called The nineteenth and Cut and they interview. They've
got caddies talking about old golf stories. It's really good podcasts,
actually funny. And so we got invited by them to
set up a golf simulator for the podcast so celebrities
could come on the show. The podcast show they could
(22:38):
use our simulator to hit a really big drive with
the auto Flex shaft, which we also sell what to expensive.
So we got up there. We set up this same
like a six hour drive. Me Dom and Philip Van
we sell up the same and then it was apparent
that there was no room for me and Don in
the room, so they set up the like you can't
see this, so like look at this set here. We
(23:00):
set it up, but it is quite tight. You couldn't
really have loads of people sat over there over there,
so they were like, what I mean I'm doing? You
set outside the room that we were recording in. Basically
wait or approached celebrities to try and come the podcast.
So we sat outside there, our speciality, our speciality started
approaching celebrities, then got told off by the hotel management saying,
this is a prestigious hotel that celebrities come to, don't approach.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
I know why that was. Though we had some right
banter with Rudehulle we did.
Speaker 3 (23:26):
We did basically Rude hull it has got.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
He said, yeah, a good shaft, we did.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
When you sell a golf shaft, you can't. All you
ever do is make a joke about it.
Speaker 1 (23:37):
I wondered why I was no longer on Telly being
a toddy.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
Yeah he's a lude.
Speaker 3 (23:41):
So anyway, so we got Chack into Rudhuler and a
couple of people. But one of the one of the
people from the nineteenth podcast, which bear in mind, was
dressed like you were working for Subway. They've branded that
podcast green and yellow, and their outfit looks like they
work for Subway.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
It's ridiculous.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
So they approached a celebrity not Jimmy red Nap, Jimmy
Anders And yeah, the Approaching Medicines is walking through the
hotel in a subway outfit and how can you come
on the podcast and give them a flyer?
Speaker 2 (24:07):
And that busy kicked off.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
So anyway, let's get it back on track.
Speaker 3 (24:09):
No, but I think this is quite interesting. This is
integral part of the story. This is the reason why
I went.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
I was there. They had this like studio set up.
I was asking a lot of questions. I was offering
my own little bits and bits of advice about you know,
moving subjects on or whatever, which I mean, if they
listen to this, like what is that guy talking about?
And then I was talking to one of the camera
men saying, oh, you know what this this is what
I do, and the producer told me off, So can
you not talk to people? She's got work to do
(24:37):
or something. Anyway, it doesn't matter what You've got to
stop out in people.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
Anyway.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
Basically, this long winded story is getting to the fact
that Tom and I were like, fuck this, then pu pub.
Speaker 3 (24:49):
So we're basically going to the pub and fill like
what you're doing with the jiggers in and fill with
jiggers In. That's where all the slabs go. So all
the slibs go to jiggis In. Now this pub is
not like got domant On. Anybody can walk in, but
nobody knows. It's like a best guest secret that it's
like a celebrity. So we walked in and we started
drinking at eleven am.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
So not what else to do again, but I just
exactly so we were drinking guinness from eleven am or
something ridiculous.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
And then someone were like, they came over and they said, oh,
over in that corner, this bondio of his drummer.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
And hue Lewis Lewis, if this is it, please let
me know.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
Back to the future one.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
Yeah, that's true. But and again this is how my
ADHD brain were. Immediately after meeting Huey Lewis, I was
on that playlist getting all hei, I know this guy, Yeah,
I know him. He bought me aspice run.
Speaker 3 (25:40):
So so they go, right, you've got to try and
speak to Tico Tories because we need to get on
the podcast. These two people from the nineteenth podcasts, they
were drinking with us, so easy, I'll math course.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
Go and talk to him.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
So I walked over, but it was clearly they're on
a separate table, like pretty private and thing. How can
I how can I do this? So I like passily
the biggest fakest double take ether and pointed him and went, sorry,
is it Tiko Torres? Now I didn't have a clue
tikotoris before this? Who knows the drummer from anyway? Yeah,
motherfucking is Tico Torres?
Speaker 1 (26:12):
Yeah he did have like proper gruff.
Speaker 3 (26:15):
Anyway, Oh my god, you, my hero, have made all
this crap up. My son's a drummer almost Nicko is
a drummer, so he's my son.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
All right.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
You were selfish though, weren't You got it off yourself.
Speaker 3 (26:26):
Actually anyway, So straight away sat down next to Tiko
Torres and this really famous caddy from Germany that I've
never heard of, golf caddy who was nice and went
a great evening. Meanwhile, Don were propping up Hugh and
Lewis at the bar that made this.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
There's a weird thing that happens to us. I know
that literally ten minutes on the podcast we were talking
about shyness. But there's a weird thing. When Tom and
I go into a room where there are people to
talk to. It's like the act turns on. It's like quickly.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
I think there's a bit of competition as well. It's
like I'm thinking, I'm going to get to it before
dom Dust. But then that's that's like two percent of
about it.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
But the weird thing is, I'm sure that we become
really annoying, but something happens where people kind of warmed
us really quickly. It must be that because the bar
lady that the jury is in was the perfect kind
of woman the jiggers in I've got a really bad cough. Anyway,
(27:23):
the bar there was the perfect because she loved our humor.
Like the people behind the bar.
Speaker 3 (27:28):
Were like, I don't like two young lads were like
just very interested in our story because you weren't.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
Like. The thing is when it's somebody else, so say
it's not us that's going into the bar. When it's
somebody else who walked into a bar and gives it
the bigger like that, you get pissed off, don't you?
Is that guy?
Speaker 2 (27:47):
People were probably thinking that.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
Yeah, people probably were, But the Americans loved it. Northern
chart cough. It was amazing. One couldn't believe that you're
in there, but he reasinally starts because well, thinking god,
this is the guy who played the drums on my son,
not just used to end the night out in Bradford.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
So but you won't he Lewis death was it? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (28:12):
It was very deaf in like so if you're speaking
one of money, were all right, but in a group
he couldn't everything because Tiko Tories were like dumble speaking
of Hugheys don't called death. There was someone else famous
there as well. Anyway, I pulled. I got Tiko Torris
outside nice to get him outside. She wanted to do
a video for Niico.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
I did a well basically what happened. Iss went out
for a cigarette and Tom followed him.
Speaker 3 (28:33):
And I went on, you do a video for my
son's ten years old. He plays the drums. And he
did this video. You know what I could actually play
on the podcast. You go to play the audio?
Speaker 1 (28:40):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, here it is.
Speaker 2 (28:44):
Nico.
Speaker 3 (28:46):
Oh god, all right, right, how old old Nico ban
my son Nico, Nico, We're gonna do a video.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
We want advice.
Speaker 3 (28:58):
He's ten years old, level two drummer, loves the drums.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
Give us some advice, I.
Speaker 3 (29:04):
Nico listen, Tico Turus my joke and the drummer been
for forty years and been playing music from fifty six.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
I heard your fucking drummer at that's really cool.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
I'll accept the swear words because I love it.
Speaker 1 (29:18):
I'm sorry for that.
Speaker 2 (29:19):
When I am a rocker, I can't help it.
Speaker 3 (29:22):
But I got to taste something, follow your heart, love it,
do as hard as you can for yourself, and I'll
tell you what.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
What you're doing is beautiful. Keep it up.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
Niko, come on from the best so you can see
he's like swearing, and I'm like, oh, don't swear.
Speaker 2 (29:40):
But I'm also very very mind.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
We'd had we'd probably have four or five Guinnesses by then,
and Huey Lewis bought everyone a spiced rum. He did,
which is a sevens. I never thought i'd also I
hate stuff like that. So I'm in front of these
cool guys trying to down spiced I forgot about I
downed it and chased it with guineas and then it just.
Speaker 3 (30:00):
It was just like that was kind of the part
of the weekend, and that same that night or the
next night, I ended up when they're getting drunk with
Jimmy Anderson and Michael Vaughan in a in a bar.
I've got Jimmy Anderson's number about he wants to try
and out to flick shift of what's up to me
and replied because in Australia that was stupid of met
Bill Murray on like.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
That needed a much bigger build up. We met Bill
fucking Mooy.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
Said it like we met the guy from God Compared adverts.
But yeah, Bill Murray was there and he.
Speaker 1 (30:26):
Was in the charming nice We're a bit full on
and I thought maybe it was annoy body, but actually,
like he was nice one and I was just thanks
for your time, and he's like, oh, no problem.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
We were lovely. Else were the They were just.
Speaker 1 (30:39):
Basically this this thing celebrity is everything.
Speaker 3 (30:41):
It's called the Alphil Dunnell is the Golf Tournament and
it's a celebrities play with pros golf.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
Pierce Morgan walks in.
Speaker 1 (30:49):
You know the these are the hair growing out at
the top of my ear.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
This is ADHD kicking.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
It's why I've been pulling hair from my ears. Right. Sorry, Yeah,
we were. They were Celebrits every where.
Speaker 2 (31:01):
He was pressed there, I'm just my computer went to
sleep with that, sorry, Peters.
Speaker 3 (31:07):
Morgan walks through charming is you could hear him halfrom hatherway.
Everybody just like quivering in his way, like loving him.
Said he loo to me, how are you doing you alright?
Speaker 1 (31:18):
Mate?
Speaker 3 (31:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (31:18):
Good mate? How are you dodge Bustard? And actually I
think I think I think was all right.
Speaker 1 (31:23):
I think well it was pleasant, It was.
Speaker 3 (31:25):
Pleasant, yeah, Kevin Peters said, Lords Lords of Rex cricket
for some reason, Lords of Rex footballers. Apparently there was
Chef Chenko there, my hero growing up. Whenever Michael Douglas
were there. Apparently we never met him.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
But the thing is I I found all my old
football cards from when I was a kid, and I
carry them everywhere just in case this was funny, actually,
just in case, I take them everywhere with me. And
rud Hulli was there, and he's on one of the cars.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
But the funny thing is Don wasn't at the hotel
at this point.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
No. The reason I wasn't at the hotel is because
someone had said Rude Hulli's coming and I was like, ship,
I've left the card at the hotel.
Speaker 3 (32:00):
And the hotel was probably like a fifteen minute walk
ten minute. I liked it, ran back the hotel to
get the card, and then I message JOm saying quick
is about to go. I can't keep them talking a
minute longer. We were talking for like twenty minutes, a
really nice guy, I said, quick, so domb spreading it
back like burst into the door hotel out of breath.
Bear in mind is this after we got told.
Speaker 1 (32:18):
Off for before? And then Tom went yah, I burst
in sweating and I've got I've got auto flex like
memorabilia on like a big jilli and I've run and
Tom went, oh, this is my mate, Dom. I've not
even caught my breath. So then I looked like one
of those nerdy autographing.
Speaker 2 (32:36):
You were you literally won was that guy?
Speaker 1 (32:37):
But he signed it with then I didn't give a
ship about the backstory. But I've found all these cards
all side. But that's gonna be a spin off of manhood.
We're going to try and get all those cards signed
out why and trying.
Speaker 3 (32:48):
To feel I think that's like somemer, which gives us
purpose around just rambling.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
On which is what? Which is what we're doing now?
And we won't ramble on for much than anything else.
Speaker 3 (32:57):
And Saint Andrew's that happened the film Basics in a
room for three days straight. Phil didn't come to the public,
did it. Did on a night he joined us when
but we was all day drinking for two days. Basically
there is one and we were networking one.
Speaker 1 (33:11):
Yeah, no, we were networking. Though we made a lot
of friends in there. A lot of people were interested
in the ort Flex, I mean not seeing one of
them was contacting us since, But that we did what
we were there to do.
Speaker 3 (33:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (33:19):
One thing I have thought about a lot, and I
did apologize for it at the time, but it does
make me WinCE a little bit is that I was
there on the auto flex ticket. I was supposed to
be there social media advising all that jazz and dinner
time came around and you just ordered yourself a player
of chips and I ordered a steak and chips and
(33:40):
it was delicious, but it was.
Speaker 2 (33:42):
Why why why are you winted at that?
Speaker 1 (33:44):
So about thirty quid?
Speaker 2 (33:45):
It wore a lot.
Speaker 3 (33:45):
Yeah, you're basically milks didn't you for three days? And
then I didn't pay for it. I did get around
in though I'm no because I made you get around in.
Speaker 1 (33:52):
No, you didn't. I did get around in Do you
know how much that round cost us? Well, like three
drinks lost forty.
Speaker 2 (33:57):
Quid, Yeah, a lot. I think that the thing is
that the premise of it was, yeah, it were a jolly.
Speaker 3 (34:03):
But if Phil's was recording in there doing his golf thing,
because Phil's great with the golf side, the tech side,
the numbers, he knows that's him inside out now, he's
really good at that. He's no point in putting me
in that room just trying to make people laugh and
I'm gonna clout.
Speaker 1 (34:14):
And had to sit there for two hours inside.
Speaker 3 (34:16):
So I'd have been by myself a lot of the time,
which would have been fine. We were other friends. But
having done there's a bit of a back and forth.
It just makes it easier to approach it was.
Speaker 1 (34:25):
So it was it was such a good trip that like,
that's one of those core memories we've created.
Speaker 2 (34:29):
Age.
Speaker 3 (34:30):
It's a South African billionaire and I can't I can't
explain how richest guy is. I mean, I feel like
giving him his address to google it on Google Earth
because it's the most ridiculous house in the middle of London.
It's like worth twenty five million in this house. He's
he is the richest man in South Africa.
Speaker 1 (34:45):
But he is what sometimes I aspire to be. He
literally takes no shit, doesn't suffer for no ship. But
I don't mean like he just like decides, oh I
don't like that. I'm not going to speak to him anymore.
I'll say to your face, he did.
Speaker 3 (34:58):
So this is what I'm getting to us is is
he uses our old flex shaft because the very expensive
shaft has bought loads from us. He must have spent
about ten grand on shafts just with us. And I thought,
I've got to try and catch him on on one
of these nights. So I think the second night, I'm
half cut, and he sat there and he's holding court,
and he's holding court with Tico Torres, Huey, Lewis, Pierce Morgan,
(35:19):
another billionaire, apparently the richest man in China, Asia, America.
All these is like a table of billionaires and celebrities,
all these highend celebrities, And I'm thinking, and he's holding court,
and I'm thinking, I've got to get I've got to
get his attention to speak about oddo Flex. So I
went outside and I pretended to smoke. Did that oh,
nothing about and I think we're drunk at the time.
I just like looking around, tend to be on the
(35:41):
phone for a bit. And then he broke rank and
he started walking away, and they were all like trying
to get his attention, and I had the ld flex
on just walked up to him and I just went,
Johan his ulto flex flex.
Speaker 2 (35:51):
It's ship.
Speaker 1 (35:52):
That shaft is really shit.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
It's really crap for me.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
He started basically having to go up over the shaft
and went, you're I'm so sorry. We didn't realize you.
Contacts will sort you out. We've got some different shafts
you can try. We've got a light a shaft, to
heavy your shaft whatever. Okay, speak to my guy who's
parting me off onto this big tall South African guy.
He went watching name a number and taking it down
and basically will be in touch. But with the fact
that he knew he were were these billionaire new all
(36:18):
to flex because don't matter what if it was good
or bad, the scenario it's in his head.
Speaker 1 (36:22):
Then now I think Bill Murray will remember who we were.
Speaker 2 (36:25):
No, definitely not the amount of people I'll meet and talk.
Speaker 1 (36:28):
I can't believe I met a ghostbuster.
Speaker 2 (36:30):
I can't believe I.
Speaker 1 (36:31):
Met Bill fucking Murray.
Speaker 2 (36:32):
Is he probably the best ghostbuster?
Speaker 1 (36:33):
Oh, he'd be the one you chose to me, definitely,
Or Dana Croyed.
Speaker 3 (36:36):
I would say Dana cried watching Caspili a night. Dana
Croyd appears very overweight.
Speaker 1 (36:42):
Isn't it. Did you know Dan is in Indiana Jones
as a ghostbuster? No? No, no, as a ghost Sorry
because in Caspy No, he's in Indiana Jones and the
Temple of Doom and he's just a minor role. He
plays like a guy who works at an airport who
puts Indiana Jones onto an aeroplane.
Speaker 2 (36:59):
That's quat cool.
Speaker 1 (37:00):
Yeah, anyway, but.
Speaker 3 (37:02):
Yeah, he's probably the you go for Bill Murray as
the best one. He looked, he looked like it looked
like a walking corpse to him.
Speaker 1 (37:09):
He did, but it was he was a really nice
guy and we met him.
Speaker 3 (37:12):
That's what, like quite tall, actually probably six two I'd
say it was towards me, do you think, Yeah, But
it was like he was like his skin was translucent.
Speaker 1 (37:22):
You only get to the age, remember he was. He
was our age when he did the first Ghostbusters in
the eighty. So what's that? Eighty four? Eighty five? So
he was our age?
Speaker 2 (37:31):
So is he eighty? Is he eighty five?
Speaker 1 (37:33):
No, he's been his seventies.
Speaker 2 (37:36):
He looked old. He did look like your bloody grand
great granddad. But we met him.
Speaker 1 (37:40):
That's all that's important. What else happened before we sign off?
You went swimming in the sea?
Speaker 2 (37:45):
Went swim the sea?
Speaker 1 (37:45):
Yeah, nut job? There were people surfing though, weren't they?
Speaker 2 (37:48):
Yeah? There were people.
Speaker 1 (37:49):
I watched you go in the sea, and I was thinking,
how did anyone work out surfing? Like, how do you
get how do you know that you can put a
board in there and stand on it?
Speaker 3 (38:01):
The Fijian's Hawaiian? Sorry, I've offended a hole race? There
is where's more? Where's my anna based Hawaii?
Speaker 1 (38:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (38:08):
Not feed you?
Speaker 1 (38:10):
I'm not mm hmm use anyway, how didn't work out surfing?
Speaker 2 (38:15):
Let us know?
Speaker 3 (38:16):
But I reckon because you look at that film that
they're basically they're just using what's around them to go
on the scene.
Speaker 2 (38:23):
Probably would probably then.
Speaker 3 (38:24):
Yeah, I was walking to ski half naked and you
weren't even you were looking at this is I filmed
it for you? This is definitely some sort of medical
class going here. You weren't watching me, You're watching the kids.
Speaker 1 (38:37):
Yeah, how did someone work surf?
Speaker 2 (38:38):
How did your mind go to that? And what it
is like like five degrees with that?
Speaker 1 (38:42):
The city usued to be like I filmed you didn't
should you look like you'd had enough for you just
walking into the sea.
Speaker 3 (38:47):
Honestly, that video I looked when I see videos in
me with my top off right from the especially from
the back, because you brought by.
Speaker 2 (38:56):
I'm so wide, I'm so white.
Speaker 1 (38:59):
I'm like believe, but you carry it well, You're just
it's even, isn't that. I've seen where I've got a
paune mind's uneven, yours is evenly spread.
Speaker 3 (39:09):
It looks aesthetically way back your your wildlife Parck in Doncaster.
I've seen the back of a rhino, just just a back,
plumb on the back, not even side. And I'm thinking,
and then look at my shoulders, at my back and
my back and shoulders. It's basically out of a rhino.
It feels that wide. What can I do though, nothing
a limb removed. I'll come from some bones shaving down.
Speaker 1 (39:31):
The problem is, and again this will probably come up
in future episodes. We're at an age now where things
start changing. Your body is starting to give up a
little bit. It gets broader. Yeah, you get hair like
I have to shave my ear hair every couple of
days now.
Speaker 2 (39:44):
It's not fair like you said, I picked mine lot.
Speaker 1 (39:47):
Now my nose hair, I need like a weed whacker
to get it out. It's so thick, Sarif. Honestly, next
time I pulled out, I'll show you it's It's as
thick as a cable. It's unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (39:58):
How is that There's loads of things like in the morning,
bursting through a week.
Speaker 1 (40:02):
I'm dreading the day. I look down and there's a
white puba because I don't mind going great, top, but great,
I bet they do.
Speaker 3 (40:11):
Trying to think of my dad's as we're getting older,
what ginger though?
Speaker 1 (40:16):
Why do you look up elderly, Paul, see what happens there?
Speaker 2 (40:19):
Look it up?
Speaker 1 (40:21):
I don't know anyway. I think we that stage in
the show.
Speaker 3 (40:25):
We're flagging out with. I think going forward though, I
think we trying to record for as long as possible.
I think it's quite good for a break. Yeah, it's
good to should get like a coffee, a bit of
something going on but you know what you should see
up the next episode.
Speaker 1 (40:36):
But we are well, we are going to introduce features.
So in future we've got a feature that helps us,
don't it that we thought about. It's going to be
called mad mums or mental mums, and we want to
know stories of mad things your mum has done, to
know if you've.
Speaker 2 (40:51):
Got mental this.
Speaker 3 (40:53):
No, no, ye, maybe what's really good about this? I'm
reacting to these features first.
Speaker 1 (40:57):
But the thing is what you've told me a lot
of stories about your mom. Yeah, so there's plenty to
get going.
Speaker 3 (41:03):
I've got I've got my mum has done so many
random stuff that it's actually now I've actually got seasonal
stories about her. So now now now if I've got
like an Easter story, I've got a Christmas story when
you fell into Christmas tree.

The question that I've come up with. You can come

Speaker 2 (42:52):

Speaker 3 (43:23):
Do they know Wan King's specific to the shaft? They
got a shaft in the interest?
Speaker 1 (43:28):
Definitely? How long? Maybe never? Maybe not? You're just never
going to be in the movie.
Speaker 2 (43:33):
Too stressed. We're going over there, answering.
Speaker 1 (43:35):
We're almost answered anyway.
Speaker 3 (43:38):
You know THEO is now thirteen, Teddy is fifteen. But
when is there going to listen to this? When when
do ill we'll listen to this?
Speaker 2 (43:51):
Mate?
Speaker 1 (43:51):
They're they're both in high school now. They know probably
you might, but they know will they come to you.
Speaker 2 (43:58):
I've got to answer your question for you, Dad, I.
Speaker 1 (43:59):
Think think about what think about what you were doing
at thirteen to fifteen, or playing my action figures. Yeah,
there was a little bit of me that was clinging
onto my childhood. I still played Armies when or thirteen.
Speaker 3 (44:09):
Yeah, Armies ged Joe's a man Batman.
Speaker 1 (44:12):
Yeah, I know. But then by fifteen I was out
stifteen still play actually, I mean desperately trying to so
I was I looked like Harry then.
Speaker 3 (44:21):
That would have been perfect when Harry Potter would have
been released, You'd have been a perfect time to look
like Iry Potter.
Speaker 2 (44:25):
But back then it would be follow job. My problem
was I I between the transition between me being a
kid and a teenager was two days okay?
Speaker 3 (44:34):
Like Kevin, Yeah, I can't really Kevin and Perry at
that sketch where he wakes up like the name May Night.
Speaker 1 (44:42):
I thought I thought I'd broken mine when I did
it because the skin won't go back. Was, Oh God,
what have I done? I've broken? Am I going to
after I talk to my parents, I'm gonna have to
say brookerby Willie, can you fix it anyway? Let's let's
let's let's wrap it up when you.
Speaker 3 (44:57):
Talk about I want to talk about Theo's thirtieth birthday
though that maybe on the next one.
Speaker 1 (45:01):
Write it down, you'll forget because you're ONNG.
Speaker 3 (45:03):
Diagnosed was thirteen last week, and it was like, it's
a big one.
Speaker 1 (45:08):
In it it is a big one. So was it
like Kevin and Perry.
Speaker 3 (45:11):
Yeah, because the next day we had a tickle fight
and his voice broke during the tickle fight, and me
and Nichol looked at each other and he looked at
me and and I can't say oh, because I can't.
You can't take the mick out of that. It's a
sensitive area. And then I'm just like really sad inside
and went, he's gone. His voice has broke, He's gone.
(45:33):
But then he went off to play with Sputio and
build his little stadio. And I think it's like he's back,
and Teddy's still in this transition. I think it's a
weird transition between letting go of you. But teddy's've always
Teddy's grown up at a really good, steady rate. Like
it's really like you might somebody might think he's still
a bit childish, or you might still think so, but
(45:53):
I think it's like a perfect stead.
Speaker 1 (45:56):
It's very steady how you used to grow up when
you had middle school. It is so I grow in
the middle school general introduction.
Speaker 2 (46:01):
And I think the is to be fair. It's just
the little mark, isn't it. When the voice goes, things.
Speaker 1 (46:05):
Start changing, and it's like Ted starts wiggling his eyebrows
at me when he sees an attractive girl.
Speaker 2 (46:09):
He's like.
Speaker 1 (46:11):
For you. And he broke his leg, which we'll talk
about in more detail.
Speaker 2 (46:16):
To go over.
Speaker 1 (46:17):
I had to help him get shot someone. We're in
hospital and his legs are so hairy and I wasn't
prepared for man legs.
Speaker 2 (46:25):
Oh god, But what do you feel sad about that?
Speaker 1 (46:28):
Well? Yeah, because he's gradually losing my grip. No kuddles
are going out the window and all that aren't they
is growing to an I don't know you anyway. That's
the manhood two point note, episode one. This is just
(46:49):
an introductory to what's gonna come. Don't forget that question.
If you stranded somewhere like a desert island or in
the jungle or something, how long until you had your
first masturbate?
Speaker 2 (46:59):
And you know what, just if you're a relative or
I don't want to know, don't answer it.
Speaker 1 (47:03):
Yeah relatives, No, you're not how to reply.
Speaker 2 (47:07):
Get the replies? Then my mum's like, what's that? What's
the number again?
Speaker 1 (47:12):
We will be back. There are gonna be regular episodes.
We're not gonna it's gonna be weekly at least we
I know that we promised Rob Beckett loads and loads
of times, but actual plans are in place for that
to happen. We're gonna get Lloyd on to talk to
Tom about his hair stuff.
Speaker 2 (47:26):
No no, no, no no no. With Lloyd's on for
various of reasons, and he's been.
Speaker 1 (47:30):
On a great toss on Lloyd Live. He's got a
TV show that's going to be out in the UK soon,
so we'll talk about all to our friends exactly. So
all that is coming up on this series of Manhood.
Thank you so much for watching. It's been an absolute
pleasure to have your watching, all listening forgot about people
actually listen as well. How do people ingest content?
Speaker 3 (47:52):
Isn't it it's been so long you're ending it like
a right big crescendo. It feels like you thank you
for listening, thank you for watching. Like it's been a
big at a award ceremony. I think we need to
work on the ending. I think it just needs to end.
Hello, you're right. Yeah, we're back. Yeah, we are back
in our brand new studio.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
It's been a while.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
I'd say studio is a bit echo. We we as sorry share.
Speaker 3 (00:20):
That we're in a half built office block.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
It's a building site we're on essentially, Yeah, a.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
Bit is a building site. Yeah yeah, it's And what
we were going to.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
Do is wait because we were planning on building a studio,
the studios a professional careers, right, big relaunch with with
you know, we started podcasting decades ago. Its front Runners
if you will, over a decade ago, two.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
Thousand and nine, eight eight before before it was very
wise to podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
We started doing it.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Yeah, too soon, it would be rich by now if
we started later.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
Anyway, we've come full circle and were now got our
own studio.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
In a round about what.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
We're taking too long? This is this, I said, let's
just spray paint a sign and and and get cracking
with the podcast. So we're back and we've done loads.
A lot has happened in our life.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
First of all, I'm trying to establish when the last
one war.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Over a year ago was it? Who was the last epic?
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Was it? James?
Speaker 3 (01:17):
Didn't we do like an intermediary one at the start
of the year or in summer.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
I can't remember done nothing this year anyway.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
I suppose you just look at you on Spotify.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
But let's call this Manhood version two point note. We're
back and we've got that. We've got this nice route.
I mean, I say it's not nice yet, but gradually
as the series progresses you will see and hear improvements.
You will We're going to try and I don't think
we'll ever get rid of that.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Now we've got it.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
I do quite like that.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
That is actually line of pain. You don't when the
builders draw a red line and you drive when they're
marking out.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
Obviously you're if you're listening, you don't know what we're
talking about. But we've made a sign for our new
studio that is just made out of old Amazon boxes
and spray paint. But we did have real stencils like Banksy.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
Yeah we did. Yeah, but it was very coupled together.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
So the idea was that Dom'm going to come over today,
We're going to record an episode, but nothing was ready
by the table. Bought a couple of new mics, and
we found some red floor pain and some cardboard and
this is where we're.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
At, and it looks I like it. I mean, this
really is a visual representation of our life, not like
the podcast is a mess.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Why did we stop?
Speaker 3 (02:28):
I think we owe the listeners and explanations to why
we stopped laziness.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Okay, was it laziness?
Speaker 1 (02:35):
I don't know why did we?
Speaker 3 (02:37):
I think we always said if we ever got too
busy in our life, one of the first things to go, unfortunately,
would be the podcast.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
Which isn't what our loyal listeners want to hear.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
So yeah, we dropped its straight away, but.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
We realized there was a bit of an appetite for
it because people kept coming up to us and saying,
where's the podcast? I mean, granted, fifty or more of
them were our friends who just wanted to know how
we were.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
But but we're back. We're mugging to try. So we're
gonna try and put effort in. The purpose of doing
the studio here at my offices was to try and
come back every week. So we've got a bass, it's
all so ready to go somewhere we want to come.
We're going to create the environment. We're doing it on
zoom before and I don't know about you.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
Need chemistry, don't. We've got to be in physically together.
We do to be able to touch like this and hold hands. God,
your hands are big, aren't they?
Speaker 3 (03:24):
Hands at a bar in Leads two weeks ago again
and they bunched me square in the face because of
my sausage fingers. What I were at the bar and
I put the hand on the bar, blooming it look
at size of those things like sausages. I went, all right, sorry,
were blooming? He what you in a sausage and mashes?
Making a sausage jokes?
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Why did he try to?
Speaker 3 (03:43):
So I went, okay, make take it easy. Let's let's
look at your hands then, and he got his hands
out and they're like like, I've got small hands.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
No, you'll are long though, slender man.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
But my hands look bigger. They look not like normal
size for a person on that side, but this side thinner.
How is that? That sounds like sometimes optical illusion?
Speaker 3 (04:04):
Thin small knuckles, small back hands snurled like logs, like twigs.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
So anyway, so he goes.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
He kept going about myssage fingers, and I went, all right, mate,
very funny, hilarious, I've got fat fingers. So what my
wife's happy. That's all I can say. Okay, So then
I walked away and he grabbed me back, scruff and
get back here. Now pull my back to what He went,
we're having a drink together, you and your sausage fingers
and me.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
You're having a drink. I want to see that.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
I want to see where were you in the wild way,
because I want to see your sausage fingers around a
pink glass.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
He said, I'm not going to drink with you. You're clearly delusional.
Off your like King Charles's.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Did they think they were like King Child?
Speaker 2 (04:41):
I don't know what. They're not even that big. They're big,
but they're not.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
To get away unscared.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
No, I didn't. So then I went away again.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
Yanked me back again, and I went, and I'm thinking
I'm going to get one of my dad always told
me I always.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Get the first hitting. Yeah, first punch, and usually it's
a head button.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
My dad always said, either kicking the balls or head butt.
Don't as soon as you raise around, they're going to flinch,
but you can't. You can't flinch your head. But it's
apparently it's really.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
I can't imagine your dad having that conversation.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
Did always get the head.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
So anyway, I were ready for it, and luckily someone
else came in. One of another guy acrosted all night,
pulled them away and said he come over and look
at it, and then I managed to get away. But
I nearly Basically they've got to fight over mas sage fingers.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
I'm sorry about that, sor Right, I mean lots.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
I mean a lot, a lot of a lot of
other stuff has happened.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
It's been a busy here, that's been.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
What if we've we've got stories to tell you, We've.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Got's got a list? An't you done?
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Why do you do? Do the list? I've made notes
during our time off.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
What do you read the list? I think I'm not
going to.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
Read the list out in its entirety, but I will
pick something out. Fine. The first question i'd written down
is do you think you could exist if your birth
was never registered? So so your parents had you and
they're like, I'm not going to tell anyone. Could you
live alike?
Speaker 2 (05:55):
What can you do that you could?
Speaker 1 (05:57):
If you it's probably illegal.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
I'll tell you what, Sarah Peace, our school had a
bed had a baby in her bunk beds.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Right, you need to add Lords of More contest.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
When she was younger, she had a secret baby right
when she were fourteen, just named her.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Yeah, I don't think she called her Pierce.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
I think again. Anyway, she had a secret baby in
a bump beds when she's fourteen, which I don't believe.
I don'tbelieve that she still got bump beds at fourteen anyway,
And she did.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
That's the most unbelievable thing that happened.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
And she had the baby in the bunk bed, not
in the bed, but like from a parent, from her
parents for months?
Speaker 2 (06:37):
Was she not showing no, but she didn't know.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
She said she didn't know she was pregnant, and then this
this does happen, This does happen.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
But was feeding the you know, she was a big girl.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
So did her parents not hear it crying or anything?
Speaker 3 (06:50):
Well, no, I think there was. It was a single mom
scenario and I think had a few drinks in her
and stuff. So she so she basically raised his baby
in a bedroom secretly. So I wonder if she she
registered it initially. Would That's unbelievable, isn't it. I'd love
to know a little update how she's getting on now.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Because that kids like to get her on the podcast,
that kid's going to be in his twenties. Well, no,
she was fourteen.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
Oh sorry, I don't know. I don't know how to
exaggerate that point. Your twenties is but yeah, could you exist? No,
if you didn't register yourself, well you have a fake
idea eventually, wouldn't you.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
Yeah, but you won't be able to get credit card.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
We're talking about now. This is not the point, is it.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
Yeah? The point was could you could you?
Speaker 2 (07:31):
I think you're bullet pointing it.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
No, No, that we could.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
Okay, the question is out.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
There now as well. Get it spoken.
Speaker 3 (07:38):
This is the problem with our mental problems. You know,
without my inatience.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
You're undiagnosed, the ADHD diagnosed.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
We literally can't bullet point things we can't know.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
But that's why I have to. Yeah, that's why I
have to. So part of the thing with ADHD is
got to start writing stuff down and actually start adding
stuff because my life and it all makes sense. Since
I've been diagnosed with HD, my entire life has been
me like a daddy long leg is banging around the walls.
I just carry on and till I meet some resistance.
(08:10):
Deal with it and then go on to the next.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Thing, is that is that with that the diagnosis from
the doctor.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Like a dead Well No, I mean that's I'm trying
to dumb it down for you, but to make it
easy to understand. So and then all of a sudden
stuff makes sense. But I still I can't be as
right and stuff down. But when we decided we were
going to do manhood again, yeah, we've done quite a
lot of stuff, haven't we. I mean yeah, yeah. Also
with that holidays saying we've been at Saint Andrew's on
the golf kids kids are a year older and the
(08:37):
teenagers now are getting spotty and cheeky, that sort of thing.
So there's lots of I needed to start making making notes.
And the first thing I thought was could you exist?
Because obviously, you know we've been, we've been for a
lot in our lives, and I was dreaming about just
living living off grid. So what you're saying further to
(08:58):
that question, actually, could you these days live off grid?
Speaker 3 (09:02):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (09:02):
Yeah, easily do it right now?
Speaker 1 (09:03):
Because when I was a kid, I used to think,
like I went on a school trip to single Borough.
I was thinking I might just Livia the Caves no
can get me. Could you do that?
Speaker 3 (09:16):
No, you couldn't because you been missing child. Police will
be after you.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
I mean, if you didn't believes as a child, No, that's.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
True, it's possible.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
If you didn't believe. We were filming on a building site.
You can probably hear some going off because again you
can't see this, and we will get we will include
it on the video. A little snippet. But our door
is literally a piece of plywood crossed up, has walls.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
It's got sound proof walls. Apparently there's no ceiling.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
I mean, we should rename this podcast ADHD because we've
literally just skipped to another subject. But living also just
explains essentially you never existed. Girl gets pregnant, you're born,
never registered, government don't know you exist.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
You can't.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
You're gonna have to bleep that name out again, all right,
kind offer, But but could you exist?
Speaker 2 (10:04):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (10:05):
So at what point are you aware of this? You
have an upbringing because you need a job, but I'll
live off the land, yeah, because it could easy. You
get raised absolutely.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
In the UK. There's nothing cool to be raised by
you like Morgan getting raised by gorillas, wolves, wolves. What
are you gonna get raised?
Speaker 2 (10:23):
By the fox.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
But say, for instance, your golf grid in the Yorkshire Dales,
what's what you get raised by sheep? The occasional deer orchestral.
Speaker 3 (10:35):
To be raised back jump off a cliff. But no,
but that in the point is that The point is
like could you lift off?
Speaker 2 (10:41):
What's there? So if you're if you, if you're bought right,
you're born.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
In the field and you have your parents left you
suck it on some grass or whatever. But you managed
to make it to a toddlers stage, you're going to
literally gravitate towards.
Speaker 1 (10:51):
Something out at.
Speaker 3 (10:53):
Yorkshireels is not wild enough eventually going to bump into
a farmer.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Yeah, it's going to be England big enough.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
Knowing, But I think I think it personally, I would
absolutely love it. Like dream scenario for me, like living
living down down in tools and like trying to survive.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Yeah, yeah, I love it, brilliant think of the weight loss.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
It's not practical and it's not great for the family
just to say, right, we're gonna go live on reset
of your mind, but it's a great research when you.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
Love to reset your mind. Do you ever think there's
fucking there's too much in you?
Speaker 2 (11:24):
I do think that.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
No, I don't. I don't mean just about subjects. I
mean in my life. There is literally too much to
think about.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
What you've said before, you have said there's too much
in your head. Isn't there too much going on? And
if if you if you take something on, someone's got
to go out, like you know, you've got like a
it's like a yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
But the difference and I think I genuinely think this
is because you maybe have ADHD traits as well, but
it's also probably because we've known each other a long time.
You understand me, I I understand you.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
But there are people that don't like There are people
that find us annoying out that there are people that
don't like us, or people maybe think we're arragant, but
we're not ragon shy. Yeah, people get mixed up between
because we're shy until we've not wormed our weigh in.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
But I think I think you're shy.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
Yeah, you're not as shy. Actually I can be. I
can be shy, but people mistake it as arrogance.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
Do you know what?
Speaker 1 (12:15):
Do you know?
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Why? Though?
Speaker 3 (12:16):
No, if you were at a bar right and you
were stood there and you're looking around and you've got
chronic shyness approaching a woman.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
Yeah, yeah, I still.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
This is now. I don't exist now by the Yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:28):
But if you're at a bar and it's not people
would look at younger, look at that arrogance.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Yeah, but you're inside, you're just like.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
I don't know if you remember this. I don't know
if you were there or not. When we worked at
the Media Museum, an outside company came in to talk
to us all it's all a bit of training for
front of house staff, but a bit of backstory. Tom
and I used to work at the National Media Museum
in Bradford Is where we met and discovered our love
of each other and we wanted to make a show together. Anyway,
an outside company came in to talk to the staff
(12:57):
about this is how you deal with people, this is that.
How do you feel about working here?
Speaker 2 (13:01):
I do remember this year.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
And one woman said, tell us one thing, write down
on a post it note, one thing. We'll put them
all up on the wall and we'll discuss them together
as a as a big group. And I and then
everyone wrote down their stuff and I thought, oh, this
is nice. We'll write something down about ourselves. That she
was like something that people don't understand or is misunderstood.
She meant about the museum. I thought, so I wrote
(13:28):
down I think people think I'm arrogant, but actually I'm
just really shy. And I put it on the wall
and she read her out and she's pulling all the
post it notes off the wall and she's going, oh,
people don't understand exhibit on the first floor.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
People think the museum, you've got to pay for it.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Yeah, and what can you do differently about that? And
then the next one was like, oh, people don't you know,
often complain that there aren't any toilets on the phone?
Oh okay, and if you got to mine, and she went,
people think I'm arrogant, but actually I'm shy. Hmm okay.
Who who wrote this one? And I was just like
put my hand up, really sheepishly, and she went, Okay,
that's important, isn't it?
Speaker 2 (13:58):
That you know?
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Staff, we understand ourselves.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Try to laughing.
Speaker 3 (14:02):
You completely misunderstood the task at hand.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
But then afterwards, a couple of staff members did come
up to me and say, oh, that's such a sweet
thing to ever and it's so nice, so sweet.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
It was one of them, and ended up marrying one
of them. Yeah, yeah, one of those people that rum life.
But whatever, Well that's that's happened on it.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
In the year. Is still single?
Speaker 1 (14:21):
Ready to mean, still still single? Still being dirting here,
that's all happened.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
And I think and I think we need to, you know,
preface this, but I think we need to speak about.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
Some of those dates.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Not now, fine, let's do it now.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
Then I think that because we're tearing up the sea
the series, I think.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
There was getting older now.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
So I think there was a reluctance you can bear
in mind.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
To talk about date.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
Yeah, And I'm still not going to date. I'm still
not going to anyone because that's that's disrespectful.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
But yes we can.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
We can talk a little bit about them.
Speaker 3 (14:54):
And you also, you don't go into like the nitty gritty,
I mean a bit. Me don't really want to know
the nitty gritty.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
No, we're not going to talk about love making it that.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
I mean, you can you know, you can skirch.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
Out to be a fine thing. I'm win kid.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
Stop Okay, So we'll try it.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
Yeah, and and like the so definitely the day and
we need to talk about that one hundred percent we
need to talk about mental health, big, big one.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
Let's talk about it.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
And I think like kids getting older.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
Yeah, that's a big that's that's on this list. Was
getting older.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
I was getting older.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
Although let's touch on this a little bit. Really lucky
I was able to take Tendy to New York. As
a kid, like my dream would have been to go
to New York. Parents couldn't really afford it, so never
never got the opportunity to do things like that. Now
I'm in a position where I earn decent money. Got
I was able to take Teddy to New York. Amazing trip.
We'll get into it in another episode. But you know,
(15:50):
occasionally have a bit of a crisis about your looks.
Thought you were getting older. My hair's turning white. I'm thinking,
do I keep the beard? I'm starting to look like
Santa Claus. It ages me in the bed, all of
this stuff. And I was walking through New You're literally
opposite the hotel where home alone. Yes, yeah, and it's right.
I was walking down that road.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
Donald Trump comes out of that hotel.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
There was there.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
There's like a really fancy apple Stone one side and
the hotel on the other. And I'm just walking with
Teddy and I'm just waiting to cross a road and
these two fellas come up to me and go, oh
my god, have you ever thought a bad madeling? And
I was like what? And I said, oh, well, oh no,
I'm like no, you know, I'm not a single down
and all that, and just on holiday, and then went,
(16:30):
oh my god, you should totally get into maddling if
you ever think about doing it, here's our card. You'd
be great, you'd be so good. Oh my god, you're
English as well. It's so great. We're looking for madals
just like you. And I was fucking buzzing. I couldn't
believe it. I was like, I've still got it.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
Were you like, I'll stop you there? Granton Catalog, two
thousand two.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
But I was like, my my, looks haven't faded quite yet.
I'm in this big, amazing country. And these two fellas
anyway looked at the business card over forties modeling. I'm
only in my thirties double edged sword.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
That's fine, though, isn't it, Like yeah, if someone if
someone offered you a gig, too, was over thought his modeling.
You're on a technicality a car false advertising. You still
take it one. But can you imagine if you'd seen
me modeling? Were they both good looking as well?
Speaker 1 (17:12):
Yeah? Good looking? Gaze yeah yeah yeah, style.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
Yeah, just your impression. I can picture him.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
Now, yeah, picture fairly.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
Probably a couple.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Maybe they looked like they ran a modeling agency. The
thing is that they've been absolutely good.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
Yeah. I think it's had to be ugly with model.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
Yeah, they'd have been gutted though, if they'd been like
if I'd gone there and they'd seen my actual body,
because I'm like a mixture of like e T and
mister burns them. Listen, I've let myself go over the year.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
I think we should have junk through. I also think,
do you remember when we did back back the where
like a swear jar.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
You think we should bring back the swag.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
Not sweat. I think we should have a jar for
mentioning my hairline.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
Now. The thing is that it's not being brought at once,
and I wasn't gonna no.
Speaker 3 (17:59):
I thought, well, coming around to that when you mentioned
the grain as I thought it might come down.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
I mean, we've gone over it before, and we don't
want to know too much about getting.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Out because Lloyd's Lloyd's had a hair transplant and.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Yeah, we're gettinghim on. We'll get this series. Lloyd Griffith's
going to join us.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
That's the most nervous I'll ever be for anything, because well, it's.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
Like, let me try and explain it.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
Okay, it's like the elephant in the room, and he's
going to be turning up. He's just gonna be looking
at my hairline thinking when a you're getting yours done,
or to that effect.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
And we'll save it because when we get him on,
we will talk to about it. And we know we've
had my old boss garethon to talk about a hair transplant.
But Lloyd has got a bit of a profile on
touchial media, so he's definitely coming on to help us
proughout the podcast. It's really funny and he's had a
hair transplant, so we'll talk to him about that.
Speaker 3 (18:41):
Yeah, he's had a racing driver going on top gear
and not right driving.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
A river because you've been talking about it for years.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
And I have I've forget about this giant.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
To be fair, the mullet has added a few years on.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
I've got a new product.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
Have you say save it?
Speaker 2 (18:57):
I'll save it.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
I'll save it, save it, because everybody knows on the world,
in this world that the products don't work. You think
it's you think it's working.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
I'm I'm like blown away.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
Really, honestly, when did you start using it? Why you're
saying really, but when did you start using it?
Speaker 3 (19:13):
I'm not expecting you to be blown away? My blown
away is differently you're blown away.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
Have you noticed a natural difference? Yeah, I woke up
blooming Bob Marley, they all fall out again.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
No, in my head, it woke up.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
But it's if it's pasibly thicker to you because actually,
and this is looking at the camera over there now,
but I know that this show is scotty all over
the places. It's kind of a preview for what's to come.
We just wanted to get back in a room, get started.
If it's scary, don't apologize, But it's previewing it. It's
previewing what's to come.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
Is it is?
Speaker 1 (19:44):
But you do notice, You do notice different things about yourself,
don't you someone looking at us?
Speaker 2 (19:50):
No, I'm looking at I'm not.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
I'm gonna I'm looking at that later.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
But you do notice things about yourself that other people
wouldn't notice, like when you're looking at me like, well
I've got a little pimple, us another hair or getting whiter.
Other people don't notice that. And generally other people don't
give a ship, but they do when you got food.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
On your mouth.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
Yeah, Jason had a crumb on his chin yesterday. Football
kids football, and it was their own game.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
Really And I didn't say O, people love it?
Speaker 3 (20:15):
But why do they? Why do they not sell? You
know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (20:17):
I think people love it when there's something that can
get you with likely got a crumb on your mouth,
better than you divorced and better than you that sort
of thing I think people get.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
And you know what as well?
Speaker 3 (20:31):
He had he had he had ketch up on his
mouth there and I'm thinking.
Speaker 1 (20:36):
Yeah, you mentioned that. I like, mate, because you could
just say have you eaten? On the way over?
Speaker 2 (20:40):
What's nobody looked pretty love? I love Jason should be
shouldn't be talking about it, Jesson.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
But you should have mentioned it to his face.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
I know I felt bad.
Speaker 3 (20:50):
We're watching kids football. It was difficult, it was tricky,
but you know what, kids football could be a whole episode.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
To be honest with you, Jesus.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
Christ, Well tell you what. Let's because this happened a
few weeks ago now and we don't want too much
time to have passed. Let's tell everyone about the Saint
Andrew's trip, because that was unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
Yes, St Andrews's class.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
That was I mean I was there. I was there
to work on a jolly one way. Well, I was
lured there under the promise of oh, we're going to
film this, this and this, and then when I got there,
Tom was like me, you pub we went to. There's
a pub on sat Andrew's golf course. We spent eleven
hours in there one day, so much time in there
that they named a.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
Dish after us, Sausage fingers special.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
No, no, it was haggis chipped with cheese on.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
We ordered off the off peace of which I never like.
I don't know my doing ann as a chef, but
they did. They did haggis and chips, and I went,
can you put a bit of cheese on there?
Speaker 2 (21:46):
In peppercorn sauce.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
It was unbelievable. It was other people coming into the pub.
We're talking like professional golfers, celebrities, were asking us what
that dish was, Tom, as if it was some sort
of like God Ramsey Special.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
I'll try to sell.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
So, as you might not know, I've got a golf
business going on with philm the sponsor of the show.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
So it's a golf similar it's a bar. We we
sell the golf products.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Bart actually is the sponsored Dios Golf or auto Flex.
Speaker 3 (22:16):
Yeah, Dios Golf probably right, And so we uh little
production meeting the witnessed. So we got invited by another
podcast called The nineteenth and Cut and they interview. They've
got caddies talking about old golf stories. It's really good podcasts,
actually funny. And so we got invited by them to
set up a golf simulator for the podcast so celebrities
could come on the show. The podcast show they could
(22:38):
use our simulator to hit a really big drive with
the auto Flex shaft, which we also sell what to expensive.
So we got up there. We set up this same
like a six hour drive. Me Dom and Philip Van
we sell up the same and then it was apparent
that there was no room for me and Don in
the room, so they set up the like you can't
see this, so like look at this set here. We
(23:00):
set it up, but it is quite tight. You couldn't
really have loads of people sat over there over there,
so they were like, what I mean I'm doing? You
set outside the room that we were recording in. Basically
wait or approached celebrities to try and come the podcast.
So we sat outside there, our speciality, our speciality started
approaching celebrities, then got told off by the hotel management saying,
this is a prestigious hotel that celebrities come to, don't approach.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
I know why that was. Though we had some right
banter with Rudehulle we did.
Speaker 3 (23:26):
We did basically Rude hull it has got.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
He said, yeah, a good shaft, we did.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
When you sell a golf shaft, you can't. All you
ever do is make a joke about it.
Speaker 1 (23:37):
I wondered why I was no longer on Telly being
a toddy.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
Yeah he's a lude.
Speaker 3 (23:41):
So anyway, so we got Chack into Rudhuler and a
couple of people. But one of the one of the
people from the nineteenth podcast, which bear in mind, was
dressed like you were working for Subway. They've branded that
podcast green and yellow, and their outfit looks like they
work for Subway.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
It's ridiculous.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
So they approached a celebrity not Jimmy red Nap, Jimmy
Anders And yeah, the Approaching Medicines is walking through the
hotel in a subway outfit and how can you come
on the podcast and give them a flyer?
Speaker 2 (24:07):
And that busy kicked off.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
So anyway, let's get it back on track.
Speaker 3 (24:09):
No, but I think this is quite interesting. This is
integral part of the story. This is the reason why
I went.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
I was there. They had this like studio set up.
I was asking a lot of questions. I was offering
my own little bits and bits of advice about you know,
moving subjects on or whatever, which I mean, if they
listen to this, like what is that guy talking about?
And then I was talking to one of the camera
men saying, oh, you know what this this is what
I do, and the producer told me off, So can
you not talk to people? She's got work to do
(24:37):
or something. Anyway, it doesn't matter what You've got to
stop out in people.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
Anyway.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
Basically, this long winded story is getting to the fact
that Tom and I were like, fuck this, then pu pub.
Speaker 3 (24:49):
So we're basically going to the pub and fill like
what you're doing with the jiggers in and fill with
jiggers In. That's where all the slabs go. So all
the slibs go to jiggis In. Now this pub is
not like got domant On. Anybody can walk in, but
nobody knows. It's like a best guest secret that it's
like a celebrity. So we walked in and we started
drinking at eleven am.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
So not what else to do again, but I just
exactly so we were drinking guinness from eleven am or
something ridiculous.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
And then someone were like, they came over and they said, oh,
over in that corner, this bondio of his drummer.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
And hue Lewis Lewis, if this is it, please let
me know.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
Back to the future one.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
Yeah, that's true. But and again this is how my
ADHD brain were. Immediately after meeting Huey Lewis, I was
on that playlist getting all hei, I know this guy, Yeah,
I know him. He bought me aspice run.
Speaker 3 (25:40):
So so they go, right, you've got to try and
speak to Tico Tories because we need to get on
the podcast. These two people from the nineteenth podcasts, they
were drinking with us, so easy, I'll math course.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
Go and talk to him.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
So I walked over, but it was clearly they're on
a separate table, like pretty private and thing. How can
I how can I do this? So I like passily
the biggest fakest double take ether and pointed him and went, sorry,
is it Tiko Torres? Now I didn't have a clue
tikotoris before this? Who knows the drummer from anyway? Yeah,
motherfucking is Tico Torres?
Speaker 1 (26:12):
Yeah he did have like proper gruff.
Speaker 3 (26:15):
Anyway, Oh my god, you, my hero, have made all
this crap up. My son's a drummer almost Nicko is
a drummer, so he's my son.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
All right.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
You were selfish though, weren't You got it off yourself.
Speaker 3 (26:26):
Actually anyway, So straight away sat down next to Tiko
Torres and this really famous caddy from Germany that I've
never heard of, golf caddy who was nice and went
a great evening. Meanwhile, Don were propping up Hugh and
Lewis at the bar that made this.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
There's a weird thing that happens to us. I know
that literally ten minutes on the podcast we were talking
about shyness. But there's a weird thing. When Tom and
I go into a room where there are people to
talk to. It's like the act turns on. It's like quickly.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
I think there's a bit of competition as well. It's
like I'm thinking, I'm going to get to it before
dom Dust. But then that's that's like two percent of
about it.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
But the weird thing is, I'm sure that we become
really annoying, but something happens where people kind of warmed
us really quickly. It must be that because the bar
lady that the jury is in was the perfect kind
of woman the jiggers in I've got a really bad cough. Anyway,
(27:23):
the bar there was the perfect because she loved our humor.
Like the people behind the bar.
Speaker 3 (27:28):
Were like, I don't like two young lads were like
just very interested in our story because you weren't.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
Like. The thing is when it's somebody else, so say
it's not us that's going into the bar. When it's
somebody else who walked into a bar and gives it
the bigger like that, you get pissed off, don't you?
Is that guy?
Speaker 2 (27:47):
People were probably thinking that.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
Yeah, people probably were, But the Americans loved it. Northern
chart cough. It was amazing. One couldn't believe that you're
in there, but he reasinally starts because well, thinking god,
this is the guy who played the drums on my son,
not just used to end the night out in Bradford.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
So but you won't he Lewis death was it? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (28:12):
It was very deaf in like so if you're speaking
one of money, were all right, but in a group
he couldn't everything because Tiko Tories were like dumble speaking
of Hugheys don't called death. There was someone else famous
there as well. Anyway, I pulled. I got Tiko Torris
outside nice to get him outside. She wanted to do
a video for Niico.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
I did a well basically what happened. Iss went out
for a cigarette and Tom followed him.
Speaker 3 (28:33):
And I went on, you do a video for my
son's ten years old. He plays the drums. And he
did this video. You know what I could actually play
on the podcast. You go to play the audio?
Speaker 1 (28:40):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, here it is.
Speaker 2 (28:44):
Nico.
Speaker 3 (28:46):
Oh god, all right, right, how old old Nico ban
my son Nico, Nico, We're gonna do a video.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
We want advice.
Speaker 3 (28:58):
He's ten years old, level two drummer, loves the drums.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
Give us some advice, I.
Speaker 3 (29:04):
Nico listen, Tico Turus my joke and the drummer been
for forty years and been playing music from fifty six.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
I heard your fucking drummer at that's really cool.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
I'll accept the swear words because I love it.
Speaker 1 (29:18):
I'm sorry for that.
Speaker 2 (29:19):
When I am a rocker, I can't help it.
Speaker 3 (29:22):
But I got to taste something, follow your heart, love it,
do as hard as you can for yourself, and I'll
tell you what.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
What you're doing is beautiful. Keep it up.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
Niko, come on from the best so you can see
he's like swearing, and I'm like, oh, don't swear.
Speaker 2 (29:40):
But I'm also very very mind.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
We'd had we'd probably have four or five Guinnesses by then,
and Huey Lewis bought everyone a spiced rum. He did,
which is a sevens. I never thought i'd also I
hate stuff like that. So I'm in front of these
cool guys trying to down spiced I forgot about I
downed it and chased it with guineas and then it just.
Speaker 3 (30:00):
It was just like that was kind of the part
of the weekend, and that same that night or the
next night, I ended up when they're getting drunk with
Jimmy Anderson and Michael Vaughan in a in a bar.
I've got Jimmy Anderson's number about he wants to try
and out to flick shift of what's up to me
and replied because in Australia that was stupid of met
Bill Murray on like.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
That needed a much bigger build up. We met Bill
fucking Mooy.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
Said it like we met the guy from God Compared adverts.
But yeah, Bill Murray was there and he.
Speaker 1 (30:26):
Was in the charming nice We're a bit full on
and I thought maybe it was annoy body, but actually,
like he was nice one and I was just thanks
for your time, and he's like, oh, no problem.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
We were lovely. Else were the They were just.
Speaker 1 (30:39):
Basically this this thing celebrity is everything.
Speaker 3 (30:41):
It's called the Alphil Dunnell is the Golf Tournament and
it's a celebrities play with pros golf.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
Pierce Morgan walks in.
Speaker 1 (30:49):
You know the these are the hair growing out at
the top of my ear.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
This is ADHD kicking.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
It's why I've been pulling hair from my ears. Right. Sorry, Yeah,
we were. They were Celebrits every where.
Speaker 2 (31:01):
He was pressed there, I'm just my computer went to
sleep with that, sorry, Peters.
Speaker 3 (31:07):
Morgan walks through charming is you could hear him halfrom hatherway.
Everybody just like quivering in his way, like loving him.
Said he loo to me, how are you doing you alright?
Speaker 1 (31:18):
Mate?
Speaker 3 (31:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (31:18):
Good mate? How are you dodge Bustard? And actually I
think I think I think was all right.
Speaker 1 (31:23):
I think well it was pleasant, It was.
Speaker 3 (31:25):
Pleasant, yeah, Kevin Peters said, Lords Lords of Rex cricket
for some reason, Lords of Rex footballers. Apparently there was
Chef Chenko there, my hero growing up. Whenever Michael Douglas
were there. Apparently we never met him.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
But the thing is I I found all my old
football cards from when I was a kid, and I
carry them everywhere just in case this was funny, actually,
just in case, I take them everywhere with me. And
rud Hulli was there, and he's on one of the cars.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
But the funny thing is Don wasn't at the hotel
at this point.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
No. The reason I wasn't at the hotel is because
someone had said Rude Hulli's coming and I was like, ship,
I've left the card at the hotel.
Speaker 3 (32:00):
And the hotel was probably like a fifteen minute walk
ten minute. I liked it, ran back the hotel to
get the card, and then I message JOm saying quick
is about to go. I can't keep them talking a
minute longer. We were talking for like twenty minutes, a
really nice guy, I said, quick, so domb spreading it
back like burst into the door hotel out of breath.
Bear in mind is this after we got told.
Speaker 1 (32:18):
Off for before? And then Tom went yah, I burst
in sweating and I've got I've got auto flex like
memorabilia on like a big jilli and I've run and
Tom went, oh, this is my mate, Dom. I've not
even caught my breath. So then I looked like one
of those nerdy autographing.
Speaker 2 (32:36):
You were you literally won was that guy?
Speaker 1 (32:37):
But he signed it with then I didn't give a
ship about the backstory. But I've found all these cards
all side. But that's gonna be a spin off of manhood.
We're going to try and get all those cards signed
out why and trying.
Speaker 3 (32:48):
To feel I think that's like somemer, which gives us
purpose around just rambling.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
On which is what? Which is what we're doing now?
And we won't ramble on for much than anything else.
Speaker 3 (32:57):
And Saint Andrew's that happened the film Basics in a
room for three days straight. Phil didn't come to the public,
did it. Did on a night he joined us when
but we was all day drinking for two days. Basically
there is one and we were networking one.
Speaker 1 (33:11):
Yeah, no, we were networking. Though we made a lot
of friends in there. A lot of people were interested
in the ort Flex, I mean not seeing one of
them was contacting us since, But that we did what
we were there to do.
Speaker 3 (33:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (33:19):
One thing I have thought about a lot, and I
did apologize for it at the time, but it does
make me WinCE a little bit is that I was
there on the auto flex ticket. I was supposed to
be there social media advising all that jazz and dinner
time came around and you just ordered yourself a player
of chips and I ordered a steak and chips and
(33:40):
it was delicious, but it was.
Speaker 2 (33:42):
Why why why are you winted at that?
Speaker 1 (33:44):
So about thirty quid?
Speaker 2 (33:45):
It wore a lot.
Speaker 3 (33:45):
Yeah, you're basically milks didn't you for three days? And
then I didn't pay for it. I did get around
in though I'm no because I made you get around in.
Speaker 1 (33:52):
No, you didn't. I did get around in Do you
know how much that round cost us? Well, like three
drinks lost forty.
Speaker 2 (33:57):
Quid, Yeah, a lot. I think that the thing is
that the premise of it was, yeah, it were a jolly.
Speaker 3 (34:03):
But if Phil's was recording in there doing his golf thing,
because Phil's great with the golf side, the tech side,
the numbers, he knows that's him inside out now, he's
really good at that. He's no point in putting me
in that room just trying to make people laugh and
I'm gonna clout.
Speaker 1 (34:14):
And had to sit there for two hours inside.
Speaker 3 (34:16):
So I'd have been by myself a lot of the time,
which would have been fine. We were other friends. But
having done there's a bit of a back and forth.
It just makes it easier to approach it was.
Speaker 1 (34:25):
So it was it was such a good trip that like,
that's one of those core memories we've created.
Speaker 2 (34:29):
Age.
Speaker 3 (34:30):
It's a South African billionaire and I can't I can't
explain how richest guy is. I mean, I feel like
giving him his address to google it on Google Earth
because it's the most ridiculous house in the middle of London.
It's like worth twenty five million in this house. He's
he is the richest man in South Africa.
Speaker 1 (34:45):
But he is what sometimes I aspire to be. He
literally takes no shit, doesn't suffer for no ship. But
I don't mean like he just like decides, oh I
don't like that. I'm not going to speak to him anymore.
I'll say to your face, he did.
Speaker 3 (34:58):
So this is what I'm getting to us is is
he uses our old flex shaft because the very expensive
shaft has bought loads from us. He must have spent
about ten grand on shafts just with us. And I thought,
I've got to try and catch him on on one
of these nights. So I think the second night, I'm
half cut, and he sat there and he's holding court,
and he's holding court with Tico Torres, Huey, Lewis, Pierce Morgan,
(35:19):
another billionaire, apparently the richest man in China, Asia, America.
All these is like a table of billionaires and celebrities,
all these highend celebrities, And I'm thinking, and he's holding court,
and I'm thinking, I've got to get I've got to
get his attention to speak about oddo Flex. So I
went outside and I pretended to smoke. Did that oh,
nothing about and I think we're drunk at the time.
I just like looking around, tend to be on the
(35:41):
phone for a bit. And then he broke rank and
he started walking away, and they were all like trying
to get his attention, and I had the ld flex
on just walked up to him and I just went,
Johan his ulto flex flex.
Speaker 2 (35:51):
It's ship.
Speaker 1 (35:52):
That shaft is really shit.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
It's really crap for me.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
He started basically having to go up over the shaft
and went, you're I'm so sorry. We didn't realize you.
Contacts will sort you out. We've got some different shafts
you can try. We've got a light a shaft, to
heavy your shaft whatever. Okay, speak to my guy who's
parting me off onto this big tall South African guy.
He went watching name a number and taking it down
and basically will be in touch. But with the fact
that he knew he were were these billionaire new all
(36:18):
to flex because don't matter what if it was good
or bad, the scenario it's in his head.
Speaker 1 (36:22):
Then now I think Bill Murray will remember who we were.
Speaker 2 (36:25):
No, definitely not the amount of people I'll meet and talk.
Speaker 1 (36:28):
I can't believe I met a ghostbuster.
Speaker 2 (36:30):
I can't believe I.
Speaker 1 (36:31):
Met Bill fucking Murray.
Speaker 2 (36:32):
Is he probably the best ghostbuster?
Speaker 1 (36:33):
Oh, he'd be the one you chose to me, definitely,
Or Dana Croyed.
Speaker 3 (36:36):
I would say Dana cried watching Caspili a night. Dana
Croyd appears very overweight.
Speaker 1 (36:42):
Isn't it. Did you know Dan is in Indiana Jones
as a ghostbuster? No? No, no, as a ghost Sorry
because in Caspy No, he's in Indiana Jones and the
Temple of Doom and he's just a minor role. He
plays like a guy who works at an airport who
puts Indiana Jones onto an aeroplane.
Speaker 2 (36:59):
That's quat cool.
Speaker 1 (37:00):
Yeah, anyway, but.
Speaker 3 (37:02):
Yeah, he's probably the you go for Bill Murray as
the best one. He looked, he looked like it looked
like a walking corpse to him.
Speaker 1 (37:09):
He did, but it was he was a really nice
guy and we met him.
Speaker 3 (37:12):
That's what, like quite tall, actually probably six two I'd
say it was towards me, do you think, Yeah, But
it was like he was like his skin was translucent.
Speaker 1 (37:22):
You only get to the age, remember he was. He
was our age when he did the first Ghostbusters in
the eighty. So what's that? Eighty four? Eighty five? So
he was our age?
Speaker 2 (37:31):
So is he eighty? Is he eighty five?
Speaker 1 (37:33):
No, he's been his seventies.
Speaker 2 (37:36):
He looked old. He did look like your bloody grand
great granddad. But we met him.
Speaker 1 (37:40):
That's all that's important. What else happened before we sign off?
You went swimming in the sea?
Speaker 2 (37:45):
Went swim the sea?
Speaker 1 (37:45):
Yeah, nut job? There were people surfing though, weren't they?
Speaker 2 (37:48):
Yeah? There were people.
Speaker 1 (37:49):
I watched you go in the sea, and I was thinking,
how did anyone work out surfing? Like, how do you
get how do you know that you can put a
board in there and stand on it?
Speaker 3 (38:01):
The Fijian's Hawaiian? Sorry, I've offended a hole race? There
is where's more? Where's my anna based Hawaii?
Speaker 1 (38:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (38:08):
Not feed you?
Speaker 1 (38:10):
I'm not mm hmm use anyway, how didn't work out surfing?
Speaker 2 (38:15):
Let us know?
Speaker 3 (38:16):
But I reckon because you look at that film that
they're basically they're just using what's around them to go
on the scene.
Speaker 2 (38:23):
Probably would probably then.
Speaker 3 (38:24):
Yeah, I was walking to ski half naked and you
weren't even you were looking at this is I filmed
it for you? This is definitely some sort of medical
class going here. You weren't watching me, You're watching the kids.
Speaker 1 (38:37):
Yeah, how did someone work surf?
Speaker 2 (38:38):
How did your mind go to that? And what it
is like like five degrees with that?
Speaker 1 (38:42):
The city usued to be like I filmed you didn't
should you look like you'd had enough for you just
walking into the sea.
Speaker 3 (38:47):
Honestly, that video I looked when I see videos in
me with my top off right from the especially from
the back, because you brought by.
Speaker 2 (38:56):
I'm so wide, I'm so white.
Speaker 1 (38:59):
I'm like believe, but you carry it well, You're just
it's even, isn't that. I've seen where I've got a
paune mind's uneven, yours is evenly spread.
Speaker 3 (39:09):
It looks aesthetically way back your your wildlife Parck in Doncaster.
I've seen the back of a rhino, just just a back,
plumb on the back, not even side. And I'm thinking,
and then look at my shoulders, at my back and
my back and shoulders. It's basically out of a rhino.
It feels that wide. What can I do though, nothing
a limb removed. I'll come from some bones shaving down.
Speaker 1 (39:31):
The problem is, and again this will probably come up
in future episodes. We're at an age now where things
start changing. Your body is starting to give up a
little bit. It gets broader. Yeah, you get hair like
I have to shave my ear hair every couple of
days now.
Speaker 2 (39:44):
It's not fair like you said, I picked mine lot.
Speaker 1 (39:47):
Now my nose hair, I need like a weed whacker
to get it out. It's so thick, Sarif. Honestly, next
time I pulled out, I'll show you it's It's as
thick as a cable. It's unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (39:58):
How is that There's loads of things like in the morning,
bursting through a week.
Speaker 1 (40:02):
I'm dreading the day. I look down and there's a
white puba because I don't mind going great, top, but great,
I bet they do.
Speaker 3 (40:11):
Trying to think of my dad's as we're getting older,
what ginger though?
Speaker 1 (40:16):
Why do you look up elderly, Paul, see what happens there?
Speaker 2 (40:19):
Look it up?
Speaker 1 (40:21):
I don't know anyway. I think we that stage in
the show.
Speaker 3 (40:25):
We're flagging out with. I think going forward though, I
think we trying to record for as long as possible.
I think it's quite good for a break. Yeah, it's
good to should get like a coffee, a bit of
something going on but you know what you should see
up the next episode.
Speaker 1 (40:36):
But we are well, we are going to introduce features.
So in future we've got a feature that helps us,
don't it that we thought about. It's going to be
called mad mums or mental mums, and we want to
know stories of mad things your mum has done, to
know if you've.
Speaker 2 (40:51):
Got mental this.
Speaker 3 (40:53):
No, no, ye, maybe what's really good about this? I'm
reacting to these features first.
Speaker 1 (40:57):
But the thing is what you've told me a lot
of stories about your mom. Yeah, so there's plenty to
get going.
Speaker 3 (41:03):
I've got I've got my mum has done so many
random stuff that it's actually now I've actually got seasonal
stories about her. So now now now if I've got
like an Easter story, I've got a Christmas story when

Do they know Wan King's specific to the shaft? They
got a shaft in the interest?
Speaker 1 (43:28):
Definitely? How long? Maybe never? Maybe not? You're just never
going to be in the movie.
Speaker 2 (43:33):
Too stressed. We're going over there, answering.
Speaker 1 (43:35):
We're almost answered anyway.
Speaker 3 (43:38):
You know THEO is now thirteen, Teddy is fifteen. But
when is there going to listen to this? When when
do ill we'll listen to this?
Speaker 2 (43:51):
Mate?
Speaker 1 (43:51):
They're they're both in high school now. They know probably
you might, but they know will they come to you.
Speaker 2 (43:58):
I've got to answer your question for you, Dad, I.
Speaker 1 (43:59):
Think think about what think about what you were doing
at thirteen to fifteen, or playing my action figures. Yeah,
there was a little bit of me that was clinging
onto my childhood. I still played Armies when or thirteen.
Speaker 3 (44:09):
Yeah, Armies ged Joe's a man Batman.
Speaker 1 (44:12):
Yeah, I know. But then by fifteen I was out
stifteen still play actually, I mean desperately trying to so
I was I looked like Harry then.
Speaker 3 (44:21):
That would have been perfect when Harry Potter would have
been released, You'd have been a perfect time to look
like Iry Potter.
Speaker 2 (44:25):
But back then it would be follow job. My problem
was I I between the transition between me being a
kid and a teenager was two days okay?
Speaker 3 (44:34):
Like Kevin, Yeah, I can't really Kevin and Perry at
that sketch where he wakes up like the name May Night.
Speaker 1 (44:42):
I thought I thought I'd broken mine when I did
it because the skin won't go back. Was, Oh God,
what have I done? I've broken? Am I going to
after I talk to my parents, I'm gonna have to
say brookerby Willie, can you fix it anyway? Let's let's
let's let's wrap it up when you.
Speaker 3 (44:57):
Talk about I want to talk about Theo's thirtieth birthday
though that maybe on the next one.
Speaker 1 (45:01):
Write it down, you'll forget because you're ONNG.
Speaker 3 (45:03):
Diagnosed was thirteen last week, and it was like, it's
a big one.
Speaker 1 (45:08):
In it it is a big one. So was it
like Kevin and Perry.
Speaker 3 (45:11):
Yeah, because the next day we had a tickle fight
and his voice broke during the tickle fight, and me
and Nichol looked at each other and he looked at
me and and I can't say oh, because I can't.
You can't take the mick out of that. It's a
sensitive area. And then I'm just like really sad inside
and went, he's gone. His voice has broke, He's gone.
(45:33):
But then he went off to play with Sputio and
build his little stadio. And I think it's like he's back,
and Teddy's still in this transition. I think it's a
weird transition between letting go of you. But teddy's've always
Teddy's grown up at a really good, steady rate. Like
it's really like you might somebody might think he's still
a bit childish, or you might still think so, but
(45:53):
I think it's like a perfect stead.
Speaker 1 (45:56):
It's very steady how you used to grow up when
you had middle school. It is so I grow in
the middle school general introduction.
Speaker 2 (46:01):
And I think the is to be fair. It's just
the little mark, isn't it. When the voice goes, things.
Speaker 1 (46:05):
Start changing, and it's like Ted starts wiggling his eyebrows
at me when he sees an attractive girl.
Speaker 2 (46:09):
He's like.
Speaker 1 (46:11):
For you. And he broke his leg, which we'll talk
about in more detail.
Speaker 2 (46:16):
To go over.
Speaker 1 (46:17):
I had to help him get shot someone. We're in
hospital and his legs are so hairy and I wasn't
prepared for man legs.
Speaker 2 (46:25):
Oh god, But what do you feel sad about that?
Speaker 1 (46:28):
Well? Yeah, because he's gradually losing my grip. No kuddles
are going out the window and all that aren't they
is growing to an I don't know you anyway. That's
the manhood two point note, episode one. This is just
(46:49):
an introductory to what's gonna come. Don't forget that question.
If you stranded somewhere like a desert island or in
the jungle or something, how long until you had your
first masturbate?
Speaker 2 (46:59):
And you know what, just if you're a relative or
I don't want to know, don't answer it.
Speaker 1 (47:03):
Yeah relatives, No, you're not how to reply.

the number again?

pleasure to have your watching, all listening forgot about people
