Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
I did not have sexual relations with that woman I'm
supposed to be getting blowing the Five Colors in a
Hair by McFly. I don't know why. I don't actually
know why we're bothering again. Why watched it last week?

Speaker 2 (00:13):
Did they? No? No?

Speaker 1 (00:13):
But this is what happens when you have a hiatus.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
We're tied in now.

Speaker 1 (00:17):
It used to be that people be like, oh, please
come back, you know, like when Elvis had that break
and everyone beg for him will come back, and then
he got a residency in Vegas and fucking unreal. We
took a hiatus and everyone just sucked.

Speaker 2 (00:27):
Off and only people have to beg back were our friends, really.

Speaker 1 (00:30):
And now we're climbing back and our marketing strategy is
relying on rob Beck.

Speaker 2 (00:33):
Don't be don't be a don't be a dommy downer,
all right, and don't be a dommy downer. We're just
gonna crack on. We've got a persevere If we build it,
which we are doing, they will come.

Speaker 1 (00:43):
Yeah, we've made some slight progress. You can't see it,
but there is a roof on it.

Speaker 2 (00:47):
Now there's a plaster board roof, so.

Speaker 1 (00:48):
It should we have a slightly less echoing put it.

Speaker 2 (00:51):
Up, my brother in law, slag off his workmanship. It's fine.
It's not being plastered yet.

Speaker 1 (00:58):
It looks good.

Speaker 2 (00:58):
I just wonder you said they would put up in
a bad way and then.

Speaker 1 (01:04):
It's just that bit there.

Speaker 2 (01:06):
Yeah, it was out straight, that's what you say. Anyway.
Episode two, Yeah, the last last episode went.

Speaker 1 (01:13):
I enjoyed doing it.

Speaker 2 (01:14):
Yeah, we don't. We don't listen to each other, do it.

Speaker 1 (01:16):
No, we do because we get giddy.

Speaker 2 (01:19):
We were very good last week. Giddy.

Speaker 1 (01:21):
What we should say actually is that this week we've
got a producer Andy. You can't see him waving him,
but is off camera.

Speaker 2 (01:30):
We've got a new bit of kit. Because I did
the edit last week, and I don't mind editing. But
Dom clapped fourteen times before the start of the video.

Speaker 1 (01:40):
You just do the last clap. I don't know why that.

Speaker 2 (01:42):
If I could cut the last video of you just going,
oh shit, you're going you're trying to find a really
good clap and I don't know why.

Speaker 1 (01:51):
But you just line it up on the last clap,
the third pick one.

Speaker 2 (01:55):
We just do one. Anyway, It's fine. But then it
went really well. He told me about five or six
hours and support to dom and we went editing in
the car whilst free were football training. And then I
was just like, we need a solution here. So we
bought a bit of kit and Andy's volunteer services volunteer services.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
So we're live editing.

Speaker 2 (02:16):
So I'm gonna get an invoice next week.

Speaker 1 (02:18):
We so, so what we I think from listening back
to it and from you editing it, we realized that
there probably needs to be a bit more structure. But
as I was thinking that in the head, I did
realize we thought that when we started manhood the first time,
and the second time and now the third time. So
I don't think we're ever gonna.

Speaker 2 (02:32):
We're never distructed. But we'll go to your question because
Don finished on this really stupid question and I listened
to it back and it were it was funny.

Speaker 1 (02:39):
Well hang on a minute. We will get to that
question to kick things off. But I wanted I wanted
to mention we did jokingly say our Tom's probably got
undiagnosed with ADHD, and that kind of ties into the
whole scatty brain. You can't focus on one thing. Yeah,
but I've been listening back to Old Bantam's banter Banterle's banner,
if you don't know, was our old podcast pure as.

(03:01):
Somebody sent in that message about me saying the word
podcast incorrectly, and it's because I had my head and
I sat right. We jumped another subject, But basically I
was listening to back to the through the old banters
banters because I want to make sure we're not going
to get canceled. And I've been going through them all

(03:22):
and quite often you mention I won't be able to
do that because I'm so easily distracted. Like what it
was we were talking about football analysts and how they
make down every minute of every game what happens, and
you were going, I can't do that. I'm too easily
distract I'd be too easily distracted by that carrier bag
that blowsball. I think you should see a professional.

Speaker 2 (03:44):
I don't. I don't want to. I don' want to
put a label on myself. Why have you got to
label it? Yeah? That is true?

Speaker 1 (03:48):
Do you know what that is true? Actually? Because I've
been perfectly happy cracking on as I am bouncing through life,
and then someone told my head ad HD and now
I'm labeled. I've been but marked now and now I'm still.

Speaker 2 (04:00):
It's just used as nothing else. It's like a degrogatory
term for you.

Speaker 1 (04:03):
But I think is it derogatory in your head?

Speaker 2 (04:06):
Clearly he's being impatient, a trait of ADHD. Well, do
you think I'm in patient? I'm impatient. Yeah, I'm terribly
if I can't do a job in thirty seconds of
not doing it.

Speaker 1 (04:18):
Not only that, but you also say things to shut
people up. So like last week when I was saying, right,
we're gonna order that new bit of gear, but you're
gonna have to order some new HDMI cables, you went, oh,
I've got loads, And then we get here, you don't
have any the stitch I've I've running around two golf
sims to fetch HDMI kebles and ogs cables. And he's
donated his time for free. He got here and you

(04:38):
didn't have any HDMI cables to plug into the cameras
he's so kindly donated.

Speaker 2 (04:41):
And yet what did I bring in the end? What's
sat down?

Speaker 3 (04:44):
Then?

Speaker 1 (04:44):
And there's subpar HDI cables?

Speaker 2 (04:47):
Are they? And he goes, you need a two point
notedge to my cable.

Speaker 1 (04:50):
Because Andy knows what he's doing. We have been podcasting
for nearly twenty years and have got no better, If anything,
way worse. We just keep chucking money at gadget.

Speaker 2 (05:00):
Our skills are not improving anyway.

Speaker 1 (05:02):
Well let's get on with the episode. So let's go
to that question question.

Speaker 2 (05:06):
Yeah, I thought at the time I didn't expect it.
Like normally one says. If someone says, like as soon
as they open with if you're on a desert island,
it's like, what track? What what we want? What one
album you take? What film are you gonna take with you?
Which person you get? Tip with Tom's question, were how
long before you had a wank? Like that's going to
be your first thought?

Speaker 1 (05:26):
Shock factor? Do you know what we're competing against these days?
There's girls just getting the boobs out. I went to
a podcast show and there was a talk about how
these girls have grown their podcasts. I thought, oh, this
is great for me and Tom. They're just a female
version of those are gone. See how they did it
went in there. They were just talking explicitly about all
the stuff they've done, Like, but.

Speaker 2 (05:44):
We don't need to do that with women with dads,
they would have been dads. Well, the.

Speaker 1 (05:49):
Dog is still in me. The dog is still.

Speaker 2 (05:52):
But anyway, so your suggesting when you land the island,
you're immediately gonna get an erection.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
No, I think gonna be far from it.

Speaker 2 (05:58):
Thought right, First of all five food shelter only then
I'm thinking about getting around. Let's be quite a crab.

Speaker 1 (06:04):
Let's be quite candid about this. Not many people senting,
In fact, nobody did. So it's either shame or no
one's listening. I think we'll decide it was shame.

Speaker 2 (06:13):
But it's a good feature.

Speaker 1 (06:14):
I asked this around work. You know what one lad's
first response was, would there be any coconut trees? As
if that, if there's no women, coconuts would arouse it
because they kind of looked like breast.

Speaker 2 (06:27):
Is it an afrodisiac? You know? I just don't. I
just don't think I've been doing it well. I want
it won't even be in my mind like my man,
will he be retracting so far in my body out
of fear of that I'm not going to die? But
once she's so scared of when she settled in, settled in.

Speaker 1 (06:41):
Like Tom Hanks on Castaway took there's a reason he
invented Wilson and it wasn't just for the company.

Speaker 2 (06:46):
I bet they will have a hole in the back
of him.

Speaker 1 (06:50):
They cut that bit out.

Speaker 2 (06:51):
But maybe so long would you last? Come on? Sput
sput a time?

Speaker 1 (06:54):
And I don't know because without I'm very particular.

Speaker 2 (06:58):
The conditions need to be just right for me to
a feather down, do vate some candles, some petals.

Speaker 1 (07:03):
I want to be in bed. You only do it
in bed. You know some people can do it and
I can't do it.

Speaker 2 (07:08):
In the show, my mate does it o a toilet, absolutely,
which I always find like it's like that's the laziest
forming't it, Like I can't remember to set myself out,
It's gonna go to toilet to do it? I think.
I think it like stops the projectile and a tissue.
This is disgusting, absolutely exactly.

Speaker 1 (07:24):
But this is what those girls and in this conversation. Fact,
it's not this kind of talk that got us to
number one in the charts fifteen years ago.

Speaker 3 (07:31):
Is it?

Speaker 2 (07:32):
But I've gotten a stupid question. It's my turn. You
know you' right.

Speaker 1 (07:35):
Actually you're supposed to save it for the end.

Speaker 2 (07:36):
I'm going to shoot the end. You know you've got one.
I've got a stupid question. Keep listening you find out
at the end of it is and mine doesn't involve
Tommy tanking.

Speaker 1 (07:47):
So you just wouldn't you'd never do it?

Speaker 2 (07:49):
No, I just know I think it'd be more bored
about what I think.

Speaker 1 (07:53):
You're right.

Speaker 2 (07:54):
I think eventually, like you said, after six months, it
might be a little tingled in the jingle and I
might think, oh, go on then for all times sake,
probably like in fact, is it a form of food?

Speaker 1 (08:06):
Well, hang on a minute, Well you can eat the
calories your own week an you uh, you're gonna have
to do just a woman? And Nick? Can you google that?
Isn't it?

Speaker 2 (08:20):
Could you?

Speaker 1 (08:21):
Could you sustain yourself on semen?

Speaker 3 (08:23):
Could?

Speaker 1 (08:24):
But hang on, If you're letting it all out, then
you you're gonna be deydraated, aren't you? Does it taste
different if you dedraated?

Speaker 2 (08:30):
You know, get yellow? Do you tasted what semen were?
You want it? We're landing in your mouth and your
licked with that phil someone close.

Speaker 1 (08:42):
Now The thing is, I I think that has happened
to me in the past, but I cannot remember if
I told you that story. I don't want to say yeah. Anyway,
the cut just to confirm. Let's let's move it on.
Move on, Let's move it on. I started watching Lost
again on the same subject in it again, but I
wanted to introduce Teddy to it. But I actually think

(09:06):
it's rubbish.

Speaker 2 (09:07):
No, the first thing is brilliant. The first is very,
very good, and it kind of progressively gets worse. And
you know when it gets worse. And I'm not against religion,
by the way, it gets worse when God gets involved
and Jesus gets involved and they make it a religious thing.
It were better when they found the action. There were
these scientists that were testifying.

Speaker 1 (09:23):
I can remember what all I have been in sixth form.
I can remember the trailers, been on channel phone, thinking,
oh my god, this is going to be amazing, like
a plane crash, desert island, sort of like it's like
Castaway but a series. It's gonna be fantastic. And I
remember watching the first episode and there been some sort
of beast in the woods and thinking, oh, that's not real.

Speaker 2 (09:40):
With a smoke on't it would have been better if
it was realistic.

Speaker 1 (09:42):
Yeah, it would have been better if it if it
literally was just a plane crash and everyone had to
try and survive on the island.

Speaker 2 (09:47):
Would you still have the hatch though? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (09:50):
That has made it interesting that they stumbled across some
sort of scientific lab or something that were that exposed.

Speaker 2 (09:56):
Everything and the numbers reset the magnetic field, didn't they do?
You know how to know this? By the way, there's
a guy who does a TikTok video basically explaining Lost
in a minute. It's the best thing I've seen them.

Speaker 1 (10:07):
So do you not watch Lost? You've not watched it.

Speaker 2 (10:09):
I've watched it. Yeah, I used to download on Being
Morpheus flashback, remember Lime Wire and Morpheus.

Speaker 1 (10:15):
I did not have sexual relations with that woman. No,
I'm supposed to be getting blowing the Five Colors and
a hair by McFly have downloaded Bill Clinton.

Speaker 2 (10:25):
Those platforms were rife, were rife with not videos. One
there you could put out in and not a video
come up. So I putting Lost and it'd be like
last inside the year. We're literally good match.

Speaker 1 (10:36):
But basically you were just you were just harvesting some
middle aged losers hard drive. Then that's where you're getting
all that from.

Speaker 2 (10:43):
So I was logged into their computer, basically pulling the
drive from their computer.

Speaker 1 (10:47):
Yeah, I'd love to It's simpler to I'd love to
go back then when it took you hours to download
one song. I remember downloading the David Brent Dance from
the office and it took three days.

Speaker 2 (10:58):
And then now when you got the video I put
you could put it on there, just transfer it over
and then watch it on it just on repeat.

Speaker 1 (11:03):
Yeah, oh yeah, that's weird in it you put. Or
like when I had a knock your engage and I
downloaded one episode of The Simpsons from LimeWire and put
it on there, and I thought, oh my god, this
is real. Member the same episode of Sibsons over and
over and it was so pixelated it was almost unrecognizable.
But I would.

Speaker 2 (11:19):
I would.

Speaker 1 (11:20):
That's a question if you could undo any part, any
part of human evolution, to go back to a simpler time.
Doesn't matter what simpler time it could be with the
Knockier Engage or the knock thirty. But if you couldn'tdo evolution,
say it, say you became a king or something, a
prime minister, and you were in charge.

Speaker 2 (11:40):
The king doesn't do all in charge, king does buger out.

Speaker 3 (11:44):
I know.

Speaker 1 (11:44):
But in theory, we're in a world where you could
undo some evolution. So evolutions happened, but you could make
the decision to do something. So say, for instance, like
football now is ship, isn't it? Football is rubbish? It's
been the tactics. Yeah, and all the advertisers off as
ruined football. But say you could make the decision that

(12:06):
football would be simplified back to the nineties.

Speaker 2 (12:09):
Yeah, definitely.

Speaker 1 (12:10):
So kids were bagg here mid nineties. Tactics were just
go out there and do your best, lad to have fun,
enjoy it.

Speaker 2 (12:15):
You could have a center after it was six foot
four and half o the way and smoked after tax.

Speaker 1 (12:19):
Yeah, no one, no one's head like you'd ban like
these extreme diets that are causing footballers to have heart attacks.

Speaker 2 (12:24):
In my opinion, that's controversial.

Speaker 1 (12:26):
How many footballers in the nineties had hear attacks on
the pitch.

Speaker 2 (12:29):
None And they were having facts at half time and
as a rudder had been a shoeing for a hat attack.

Speaker 1 (12:34):
They were having at attacks with it.

Speaker 2 (12:36):
But is it linked to something else?

Speaker 1 (12:37):
Because I think I think they're pushing their bodies too far.
I think you're going to the absolute limit. Because if
you're as fit as a Premier league footballer, you're so
lean your body is at the limit. If you keep
pushing it.

Speaker 2 (12:48):
You have to just like but the game has moved
on on, Like you need to be fitter now, don't you.
Otherwise you're off the pace like imagine like blooming I
don't know, like like Neil Rudder played in today's Premier League.
Just get run around all the time, we need to
ask Tony Adams. Absolutely Donkey could barely run.

Speaker 1 (13:04):
I think there should be an undo button on life.
Make a mistake, undo undo, and football is an example
of what's being sucked up. But smartphones we're all addicted
to them now. We all feel like we can't live
without them. But we got on perfectly well with our Nokias.

Speaker 2 (13:18):
So would would you get rid of phone?

Speaker 1 (13:20):
Then I'd go back to nineteen ninety nine.

Speaker 2 (13:22):
I'd probably get rid of the internet.

Speaker 1 (13:24):
Yeah, nineteen nine nine when there's just a touch of internet.
Yeah it helped out a little bit. Yeah, it didn't
take over everything.

Speaker 2 (13:30):
You know, if you want to find out you go
to library. Oh yeah, your dad on landline.

Speaker 1 (13:33):
Like a smartphone is incredible in it Like you're too
much though, It's like literally you don't need to go
to school anymore because the entire world's knowledge. Everything that
anyone has ever learned is on here. I can find
anything out if I want on.

Speaker 2 (13:48):
This now with AI as movie. And that's the unbelievable thing.
Like that's just this is like the tip of an iceberg.
Once you have AI. I mean, you did an AI
podcast last week, done something? This thing so so Google.

Speaker 1 (14:01):
Oh yeah, that is almost Google notebook l It's called Look,
you can go on it. It's free. You've just got
to have a Google account. And basically I just went
on there and said, what is Boutom's bouncle? What was
the Mantons podcast? And he did a twenty seven minute
podcast and it was a real It was America. In fact,
let's let's play a clip of it out now. Remember
this is a this isn't real. Listen to them, their reactions,

(14:22):
what they're doing. They're laughing at each other, repeating each other.

Speaker 2 (14:24):
Just just have a listen.

Speaker 3 (14:26):
I read this great anecdote about when James Hansen scores
the winning goal against aston Villa in the semi final.
That's right, and they're they're in the press box.

Speaker 1 (14:36):
I guess yeah, they're in the press box.

Speaker 3 (14:38):
Surrounded by surrounded by by journalists.

Speaker 1 (14:40):
By all these season journalists.

Speaker 3 (14:42):
Right right exactly, and they lose it. They just they
just lose their mind. You just go absolutely crazy. And
and and apparently I think Dom almost gets into a
fight with a talkSPORT reporter. Yeah, almost gets into a
brawl with a talkSPORT reporter. That's amazing because they're celebrating
so loudly.

Speaker 1 (14:59):
How many that? Yeah, that's unreal in it they're reacting
to each other. You want you want to see it?

Speaker 2 (15:04):
Andy? She is?

Speaker 1 (15:05):
That is ai?

Speaker 2 (15:06):
Yeah, it's mental. I mean she's a bit, she's aim.

Speaker 1 (15:11):
Like even like they take little breaths. Yeah, they laugh
at each other, or they go or they repeat each
other a little bit. And even when they stumble on
Bantam's banter, because everyone we've ever worked with from outside
of Yorkshire stumbles on Bantam's banter. Do you remember when
we did that bte thing and he couldn't even say
and I stopped him mid record, that is mental?

Speaker 2 (15:32):
So that how quick did it generate? That podcast?

Speaker 1 (15:34):
That took three minutes? I said, what is Banton's banter?
Took three minutes to pull that together? Basically, it's gone
through every podcast we've ever done, every article that's ever
been written about us and pulled that together.

Speaker 2 (15:44):
Why are we even bothering put our features into a
machine like that?

Speaker 1 (15:48):
And I guess you could say that the downside to
it is that it's American voices and that it's not
really it's not realistic. But AI exist where you can
upload our voices.

Speaker 2 (15:57):
Also, the downside is the potentially better than us back
to the point, and that is scary.

Speaker 1 (16:02):
That's another scary things robots. You know, we've spoken on
the previous episode of Manhood about robots.

Speaker 2 (16:10):
That were fake though. Did you see the voices? Hey,
they're welcome. What's your name? That? Would that were a
guy in a studio somewhere? Do you think I think
it was meaning the fact that it were great that
we're pouring a cocktail? John cool name? Yeah? How you
come on?

Speaker 1 (16:21):
The thing is it's coming? That is coming. If I'd
have said to you six months ago, I can just
ask the AI what battles matter is and will make
history podcast about us.

Speaker 2 (16:31):
You want to believe me? Would you? But AI is
going to at the school schools are he's out of
a job over there isn't what are you going to
nail files? Will be a sell them anymore because robots
will be doing. Would you have a robot like servant
in your house? Do I thought of a robot builder,

(16:52):
brilliant decorate that wall? Just getting on with a quote,
try to get a quote from the trades with the
most in the air. Just have a little box in
the corner that just goes.

Speaker 1 (17:02):
And it'll be perfect. It would because it would be
like a printer. If you think about the early printing press.
It wasn't perfect, was it, And then you just said
to that person or little unit is gonna be able
to print that precisely, imperfectly. It'd be like, and now
it prints, everything's perfect, and a robot would decorate. There'd

(17:24):
be not not a drop of pain out of plate.

Speaker 2 (17:26):
And they'll be The thing is, what's what? So the
mental capability is there, What's going to limit it is
the physical? Like look how smooth I am? Look at that?
I'm like jelly will you can't make a big blob
of jelly. Come.

Speaker 1 (17:41):
There are self driving cars now And he pulled up
in his Tesla today and driving on his own. Have
a chance to slag it's electric. It's it's capable of
doing auto driving. Not around bring I'm telling you that
technology is coming. When we were in six for for instance,

(18:03):
if someone had said you had an electric car, you know,
black guard, that'll be shit.

Speaker 2 (18:07):
Being one of those little shitty things.

Speaker 1 (18:08):
A milk flow, Yeah, milk flow and look at it now.
It's the fastest kind of the planet.

Speaker 2 (18:12):
So when you do you want do you want to
see all that? Or would you have a diaget?

Speaker 1 (18:16):
Now this could be because I just hark back to them,
and it might be because I got a divorce and
like some sort of mental breakdown. But I'd go back
to the nineties all the time.

Speaker 2 (18:25):
I love the nineties. Yeah, I love the nineties. We
were talking before about opening a nineties football bar or
like Italian pizza. I just go back to that and
I just have the nineties on loop. Yeah, I think
the nineties were great. And then like the music, like
the culture, like going out and speaking to people, going
to bars and clubs like that was a thing back then.

Speaker 1 (18:42):
Like what benefit other than health, what benefit has improving
technology got? Because if you don't know it's ever gonna happen,
what's the difference. There's lots of stuff that's not happened
yet that will happen.

Speaker 2 (18:53):
Why do we keep We just all living in a
digital world. That's why don't keep evolving?

Speaker 1 (18:56):
Why don't we just stop at one point, you know,
when we could all stand up and we were comfortable.

Speaker 2 (19:01):
To say stop, Why didn't we just stop me when
I'm the king, You're the king. That's right.

Speaker 1 (19:07):
Evolution stops. Now the Internet. I'm switching it off. It's
gonna make no difference. It will, They'll take a bit
of adjustment, but we'll just go back to normal shop.

Speaker 2 (19:15):
You know as well. You could have dated in an
old fashioned nineties way, gone to a bad person. Hey,
how are you doing cristlingly shyging dodger in real life
instead of online, because dating apps, come.

Speaker 1 (19:30):
On the nightmare is an addiction, like you that they're
so bad for your mental health, is so disposable, it's
so inhumane because you could meet the nicest possible person
on there, like there might be someone better. Actually it's
all wait.

Speaker 2 (19:44):
Exactly yeah, and it's such as a disposable, like these
women are literally disposable and.

Speaker 1 (19:51):
The men are disposable as well.

Speaker 2 (19:53):
Imagine that in real life going to women and saying no, no, no, no, yeah,
you'll do.

Speaker 1 (19:58):
Literally not only that this is a better analogy. You're
standing at a bar, You've met someone, you're getting on
so well, you're really attracted to him. She's like amazing,
can't believe the connection. Someone else catches your eye. Ghost,
don't say a word, just push it.

Speaker 2 (20:11):
To all them.

Speaker 1 (20:13):
Technology is fucked us. Yeah, like it's been awful. I
mean maybe during COVID, you know, especially if you're like single,
at least you'd still talk to your mates on Zoom
or whatever I guess is. But if you think no
zoom existed, what would the difference be to your life? Yeah,
I think technology has made us far worse. Take me
back to the nineties. I don't know, no responsibility.

Speaker 2 (20:33):
I think some things are good, but I think yeah,
I think if going back to your question, if you
had to do a reset, I think you would probably
you probably go back to before internet and phones. I reckon,
you know, a good old landline. I won't even have
a little bit of internet.

Speaker 1 (20:45):
You said, have a little little the nineties was enough technology.

Speaker 2 (20:49):
Yeah, you know, you had like computer games that you're
playing in a little bit, like just to satisfy you
a little bit. But everyone had pool tables in their holds.
Everyone had dart boards, sports just romanticize.

Speaker 1 (21:00):
I think it was I didn't even know terrorism was
a thing in the nineties. It was only when the
Twin Towers got hit that everyone's all of a sudden.

Speaker 2 (21:07):
And I suppose.

Speaker 1 (21:10):
It was like the IRA and that before then Shin
Fin Yeah, but it was only it just.

Speaker 2 (21:15):
Became I'm laughing at Shimin. It just became main street.
I'm laughing at that, the fact that you're so naive
to it. I suppose I was sheltered one in the
nineties already.

Speaker 1 (21:24):
Ten just want to be sheltered again. I just want
to go home and get a cuddle.

Speaker 3 (21:29):
From the moment.

Speaker 2 (21:30):
Speaking of mum's mental mums, let's do it?

Speaker 1 (21:32):
Are they doing it again?

Speaker 2 (21:33):
Did anybody we're doing so well?

Speaker 1 (21:35):
Let's sticking to one something.

Speaker 2 (21:38):
Anyone's in the mental mum story in or a delusional dad?

Speaker 1 (21:40):
No, because yeah, last week didn't go so well. I
don't know if it's the studio or whether I mean,
I did speak to the social media guy where I
work and he said it's because she took a year
and a half. I ate to say, everyone's just gone,
and I think he's right.

Speaker 2 (21:53):
Well, you know what, we still want to hear mental stories.
I've got a couple you must have. Well, yeah, we
want to try.

Speaker 1 (21:58):
This is a feature that we wanted to carry on
into every week.

Speaker 2 (22:02):
I mean, I've got I've got plenty. I mean we
do start with the worst one.

Speaker 1 (22:07):
Yeah, Okay, that's going hard, it's going hard.

Speaker 2 (22:11):
Oh god, all right, but let's hang on.

Speaker 1 (22:14):
Let's preface this by the fact that Tom's mum is lovely.
Tom's always the nicest to his mom. I I think
I think Tom's scared to tell his mummy we're.

Speaker 2 (22:22):
A seventeenth party on on Saturday. I should say this, Actually,
listen it is.

Speaker 1 (22:31):
Pam is a lovely woman.

Speaker 2 (22:33):
But she muzzled me into a boob a joke to
like a table full of people. This is a good.

Speaker 1 (22:45):
We went to the Ukrainian Beer Festival and your mum
was there, down in shots, actually went down shot. She
was sipping them. Dad was bringing a shot over and
she was just sipping them really slowly.

Speaker 2 (22:53):
Yeah. But I think she's actually got better, probably a
better batter than she lets on. My mom she's quite good.
She plays it down a bit, but I think she
likes a bit of the crowd.

Speaker 1 (23:00):
You know, your Mummy's you but a woman, do you think?

Speaker 3 (23:04):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (23:04):
Yeah, yeah yeah, I mean I got on quite well
with you. We had all right, we have a good chat.
At at the Ukrainian Bit Festival, she was talking about
fixing my.

Speaker 2 (23:12):
Clothing, yeah, doing, doing your crotch, crotch, fixing, the amount
of time she's sold my crotches.

Speaker 1 (23:19):
She's gonna make my baggy jumpers fit better.

Speaker 2 (23:20):
Yeah yeah, so.

Speaker 1 (23:23):
Mental now, so this is got to be good.

Speaker 2 (23:24):
So with Greekyaster, she had had loads and loads to
drink and don't I don't think my mum and dad
listened to this podcast. I think my dad might do.
You might want to you might want to switch off dad.
I don't know, but he so she she were really drunk,
and my dad was like, I'm not taking her home
in a taxi because if she's sick in the taxi,
I want to pay fifty quid. Okay, so she's gonna
stay here. I'm not doing it. So my dad went

(23:46):
on a taxi by himself and left her drunk. White.
Yeah that's for us, And she's like, oh I'm going
to do I said, just sleep, sleep on the sofa, okay,
go to sleep on the sofa. You're fine, So we
leave on the sofa. I don't know why did put
it in bed, don't know. I put like a little
rug over her and we went upstairs with it weird,
and I've all forgot to run downstairs and she's been

(24:07):
sick off the side of the sofa.

Speaker 1 (24:09):
Oh, so I was like, oh, no, which was in
the in the new carpet is in one of the
living rooms in the living room, She's sick on your
new carpet.

Speaker 2 (24:17):
No, Luckily it was the old pink carpet. Fifty old
pink carpets that looky. So we're cleaning it up. Sorry,
I is cleaning up, picking bits and stuff like wipe
the down I was so sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry,
go back upstairs again. And then I was like, we're
gonna keep an eye in an here or because she
could be sick and me choking joke. Yeah, So we
hear a bit of her, like a commotion downstairs. So
I run downstairs and she stood there. She's being sick

(24:40):
again down herself. And I'm in my underpants at this
point because I sleep naked and I've got to put
something on. And it weird.

Speaker 1 (24:47):
It's it's the weird role reversal when we kind of
get a bit older, you all of a sudden looking
after this happened. Well, I'll get onto mine in a minute.
But this happened to me for the first time a
couple of years ago.

Speaker 2 (24:59):
But anyw So I've stood there in my underpants and
if you could have had like a fly on the wall,
had been quite interesting. And she's like, she comes to
come and hug me, and I'm like, what are you doing?
She could in sick and I look down and just
a patch appears on the jeans. Mind's the same story.

Speaker 1 (25:16):
This is unreal.

Speaker 2 (25:18):
Slowly so she's basically now hugging me like wetting her
pants just because I'm so sorry. So I said, oh,
you can't stay here. I pack up. So I just
runged my dad. And when you're gonna you're gonna have
to get you'd have to pick her up. I said,
I don't know what to do. We have got any clothes,
and I'm trying to look after her. And he's like, okay,
put the sticker in a taxi, but she's sick. I'm

(25:41):
not paying for it.

Speaker 3 (25:42):
You are.

Speaker 2 (25:42):
So we had to get back to this. This really bad.

Speaker 1 (25:45):
Actually, it's probably narrow it down, blessed detail, less detail.

Speaker 2 (25:50):
But but like, so you got jeans off, you were undressing,
you know, I want todss. You addressed herself because she
wants try and get change. I put veru the door
attacks on the way, we're gonna get it home, and
I've bought a tax driver. Went, please don't go near her.
You know what I mean, like out of everybody, of
every body, don't try it on. Yeah, everyone, you're going

(26:10):
to try it with tonight. This one's not you know, please,
this is me being raised dimatical to tax star.

Speaker 1 (26:15):
I mean you could have you could have got in
the tax we your woman and then got back you type.

Speaker 2 (26:21):
No, let's say I did do that. You could my
mom right, I got there and the nestler on my
bosom and we dropped her off and luckily she were fined,
absolutely dodged it. And my dad were were in a
door like that, arms folded body language of someone who
doesn't want to receive his wife, drunken wife.

Speaker 1 (26:39):
We all were fine next day, but we always say
like we're at an age now where life stops giving
and it starts taking it away. Yeah, dignity, it seems
to be the thing it takes away mostly but the same.

Speaker 2 (26:49):
But she laughs about that.

Speaker 1 (26:50):
My mom went for a bottomless brunch and I'd never
really seen my mum drunk before, and I actually gone
for a bottomless brunch and I was driving over to
see them, and I saw my mom's stumbling through the
streets of Ilkley. I was like, oh my god, what's
going on? And very similar situation.

Speaker 2 (27:05):
You know, a mess and what do you should mete
a mess? Vomb? I thought you weedy pants as well?

Speaker 1 (27:11):
Wellnopause, so let's not get into that subject. We know
nothing about that. But anyway, the same thing. I had
to get my mum home and I was really mad
at her at first, but then thought, well, you know what,
she just yeah, just having a bit of fun.

Speaker 2 (27:27):
I think you're more caring than I am. You probably
did a really good job of that. I was living though.

Speaker 1 (27:31):
I bet if someone had filmed me, it won't look
what time was this like early afternoon? So she had
had a bottles bunch with one.

Speaker 2 (27:38):
Of her friends. And were you out drinking as well?

Speaker 1 (27:39):
No, I just gone over and picked some up or
see my dad or something. I can't remember why I
was going over. But then if it were, what's wrong
with that? That's been us before we've stumbled home. I mean,
I've heard you wretching like it's like a ghoul.

Speaker 2 (27:50):
Is coming out of Yeah, I've got to get I've
got to shout out. Do you know do you know
that too closed? It just remind me them's too closed
and brigouts of a day And it was it was
it was tail tailed backs all around it, horrible traffic.
And it found out that four women had stolen a car.
You're rerided about this. Randy so Foreman had stolen the
Toyota Yaris. I want to say unusual that I mean,

(28:14):
but do you know what? What there a bottomous brunch
and they've got absolutely hammered and stole the car from
and it was an uber garage. So they're in leads.
This is a great hill. So they're in leads getting
slushed in this bottomost brunch and they've seen this uber
that I don't know where the driver the wall and

(28:34):
they've got in and thought this is gonna be funny.
They started driving it. They ended up on the N
sixty two for some straight to prison, and they've hit
the Central Reservation and it's really bad actually because the
guy they hit another car of a guy in who's
nearly died. So there's and and they're both motorsides of
the motorway clothes and if if you don't know about
them too, it's like a it's a key archery in

(28:55):
the vain, you know, in the Really it literally connects
to the east to west of the UK. So it's massive.
So just closing this motor around here and made it carnage.
And so the reason it was closed so long is
because they're doing a massive investigation because they're like, why
the hell were the four women behind the wheel and
what's going on?

Speaker 1 (29:12):
It sounds like something from a film or am or something.

Speaker 2 (29:14):
Done it bombost bunched the dangerous do.

Speaker 1 (29:17):
You know what it is? Dangerous? Brigouse Brighouse is like
lures you into drinking. Does Like I came over the
other last Monday. I came over. We ended up going
to weatherspoons flood didn't we were we were sensible though?

Speaker 2 (29:28):
How many yeah we did, we were all right? But
how many old men were just with pints of like
cars were they just sat on their own at nine am?

Speaker 1 (29:37):
But on that, on that subject, obviously I'm a single man.
Still if you're interested contact.

Speaker 2 (29:42):
Tell some day stories.

Speaker 1 (29:43):
Well maybe maybe later. But I was thinking that a
great business idea for people like me, especially like single
dad's got a lot on it's busy. You got to
do loads of washing, cleaning the house, trying to stay
on top of things as well as trying to have
a life. I've had to be a good idea because
there's loads of like elderly or older, w older women
and men who are bored, like need company, maybe need

(30:03):
help their banking. That there should be a company where
lonely or lonely sounds harsh, but.

Speaker 2 (30:11):
It's not lonely.

Speaker 1 (30:12):
Older people whose husbands have maybe died, wives have died
come and do looking after of single men or women
like me, Like they come and look after you, maybe
get your little cuddling an ego boost, almost like the mother,
especially if like me and you, your mom's still working,
still busy. They come over, they do your cleaning, they'll
sit with you here, have a cup of tea year.
But they you help them in return by helping her

(30:34):
out with their technology. They're banking. That's all on the
internet and stuff now.

Speaker 2 (30:37):
So this is you're basically describing an escort service.

Speaker 1 (30:39):
Yeah, but it's purely innocent. It's an escort service without
the sex, until it becomes not so much innocent because
it's like they come around and they'll do your clean organized.

Speaker 2 (30:50):
Telling me knock at the door. Michelle Pfeiffer stood there
and goes, oh h, you are right to a chat
with you if.

Speaker 1 (30:57):
Those situations presented themselves, do nothing about it.

Speaker 2 (31:01):
Exactly.

Speaker 1 (31:01):
I'm talking purely innocently about people just like because normally
it would be my mom, but my mum is she
looks after my grandma, granddad. She's too busy. I can't
have my mum will come around and help me with
a cleaning when I'm knacking. So sorry, right, they're not
coming to exchange his hands. They're doing jobs for It's
an exchange of friendship and helping out with jobs, menial tasks.
They come over and help me with the stuff that

(31:23):
I can't be asked with. Cleaning, organizing.

Speaker 2 (31:25):
Could be an app, couldn't it being back to analogy? Yeah,
like Tinder, so you're.

Speaker 1 (31:30):
But you swipe someone a woman saying. A person says,
I'm really good, I really want to spend time and
I really do hoovering.

Speaker 2 (31:38):
Cleaning, and I'm good at making the bed. You're perfect
giving a blood job.

Speaker 1 (31:43):
No, why have you always got to turn it sexual?
This is a serious business idea you just.

Speaker 2 (31:49):
Does Island last episode. Okay, let's go back, so that
an apps. You have an app, so you have a profile.
I am domb I'm single and lonely.

Speaker 1 (31:56):
Yeah, and I'm going to talk to you about this
because you're a little bit more sensible than Tom. What
do you think I can't do this and then you'll
be looking for I can do it? Yeah, Well, you've
been divorced that period between the divorce and meeting someone else,
would you want it to have been nice to have
someone who came and helped you out with your eyeing
and you're cleaning? Yeah, so exactly. But imagine that someone

(32:17):
doesn't have their mum available. If there was a service
available where someone could just come give you a little ego,
boot said, how you look hands and today squeeze cheek
a little bit here, you couldn't. Basically it's for single losers,
but that that would be nice.

Speaker 2 (32:30):
What if I went on just just like take advantage
of the app turned up there? Sorry, I do really need.

Speaker 1 (32:36):
Yeah, have to be there have to be some sort
of well there is.

Speaker 2 (32:40):
I think there is an app now in the called
what's it called jobster a summer they put.

Speaker 1 (32:44):
Yeah, where you can get someone to come over and
put a shelf.

Speaker 2 (32:46):
Yeah, And I went on it and basically just a
load of Lithuanian guys replied to me, quote me ten
pounds to do any job? Can you build me an extension?
Ten pound?

Speaker 1 (32:55):
I'll come now and all right, lit Lithuanians who came
around and did my dad's guarden and they would work
has There's not wrong with that. There's not wrong with
Far Eastern. In fact, they work way hard than we
do anything. Back to the point, it's a good idea in.

Speaker 2 (33:09):
It, I think it's a good idea. I think it's good.
I think it's steeped in flaws, and I think there's
like there's an element of slavery in there.

Speaker 1 (33:15):
No, it's not because they're mutual. What are you giving
back to them? Not they around and making them. When
we were in Wetherspoon's, for instance, I always thinking it'd
be well, it'd be nice to go over and say
to that fellow, you're right, how's it going? To you
having a good week. Yeah, I get that, that'd But
the thing is I work. I work hard all week,
and my time to do the households and stuff is
generally the weekend. Well, and then I get to the
weekend and I'm like, fuck, cannot be asked?

Speaker 2 (33:36):
Yeah, and in yours so yeah, because you know what
actually actually so this is actually I'm actually being serious.
Abby's granddad's lonely, he's lost his wife, and he has
a guy. And Ibb told me this last night. Actually
a guy that comes around once a week called Nigel.
Obviously was called Nigel from the council and he sits
from mel and talks to him one hour a week.

Speaker 1 (33:54):
Actually that's an invaluable service. But this way, I mean
obviously Abby's granddaddy is slightly older.

Speaker 2 (34:00):
This is the floor in them.

Speaker 1 (34:01):
There's no there's a there's an age group of seeing
of women whose husbands have maybe dying or something. So
I'm talking between fifteen because I need that nurturing. I'm
not talking about sex. You're making it about sex. I
get on better with women anyway talking and generally when
i've been the workplace is where I've worked with Why

(34:22):
it's not sexual.

Speaker 2 (34:23):
Okay, Abby is grand is gonna come over once a week.

Speaker 1 (34:25):
Yeah, but I've spoken to d and we have a
great conversation, and I feel like I've met him three
times and had exactly the same sequence of conversation. But
it's such a lovely fellow and absolutely adornt. It makes
me cry talking to him because every time I've met him,
he misses what he gets his wallet out, picture his
wife in there.

Speaker 2 (34:41):
Well, this is the problem.

Speaker 1 (34:42):
Absolutely destroys me.

Speaker 2 (34:44):
This is the problem is he's thinking about his wife
a lot. Bless him, and he does get a loan
and so this service. But what I'm saying, but this
is a two way service. Yeah, okay, I need some
He comes around to your house.

Speaker 1 (34:57):
Okay, yeah, but I know, but because oh yeah, winner something.
If he cooks me a bloody.

Speaker 2 (35:02):
Stew, yes, so cold, it doesn't mean it does a
nice It's actually not a bad little cook.

Speaker 1 (35:05):
So that's that's the service that I think. I want
someone to come and do my cleaning and you don't
want to say and in exchange we'll have some chat.
But I mean, the ideal world, do you find a
woman who's lonely wants to cook you with stew doesn't
want sexual favors and will it will do your cleaning.

Speaker 2 (35:22):
I know what you can call the app. You could
just call the act like Doris, like an old lady, my.

Speaker 1 (35:27):
Grandma, and I in return, i'd help them out with
the technology they're banking set on their iPhones. My problem is,
and I've had this when my grandad want to be
my grand's ninety five and still edits video on computer.

Speaker 2 (35:39):
It's some real but that's really good. He asked me
something and I'm immediately like, oh, it's an indurance.

Speaker 1 (35:47):
But I think that's a really good idea.

Speaker 2 (35:48):
Yeah, well we'll look. I think I think it's I
think there's a lot of there's a lot of flaws,
but yeah, look, let's not develop the app so it
goes anyway in your.

Speaker 1 (35:59):
Mental mum stories. But also if you're an app developer,
if you steal that, I will hunt you down. Like
Liam Neeson, I have no skills, but I feel idea.

Speaker 2 (36:11):
Yeah end up there. Yeah, you're doing well. I'm just kidding.
Hit a wall, You've hit a wall? Yeah, No, I
just feeling really tired. I don't know why.

Speaker 1 (36:20):
I think it's because oh I didn't sleep very well.
Last night.

Speaker 2 (36:23):
No, I didn't know. When he gets cold, it's harder
and you've got a lot on your brain.

Speaker 1 (36:28):
This is the thing I think when you work hard
during the week and you spend a lot of time
on computers and thinking about work, when your Saturdays and
Sundays come around, you want to stay up later, and
because you want you don't want that free time.

Speaker 2 (36:39):
To be over. No, I know it's quite, but that's
sad in it should we shouldn't be like just living
for the weekend.

Speaker 1 (36:45):
Well, we're trying, We're trying. This is what we want,
This is what we want to do for a living
in it. Yeah, breeze, block room.

Speaker 2 (36:54):
Cold. I mean it'd be hard do it for living
if I've got to hit a wall after forty minutes.
Do you know what?

Speaker 1 (37:01):
During the law last night, I was thinking, well, I
was Teddy was watching this video on YouTube about like
British restaurants in America and it was like fish and chips,
British pub food, stew and all all of that, and
I started thinking about the fish and Chip shop. I
wonder if they do scraps in America, And I wonder
if they know they're supposed to be free no chance.

(37:22):
Do you ever find yourself worrying about stuff that has
no impact on your life and you're worried about I
was worried about that. I was worrying about British people
going over there and getting caught out by the scraps
being charged or they're asking for scraps and the Americans
are like, what the fuck?

Speaker 2 (37:37):
What a scrap? A scrap? Come on, then, no women
know what that is. Fish and chips in America is shit.
In fact, there's crap everywhere in bloody Australian New Zealand.
So it was the fish is a red snapper. I'm like,
if it's not color haddock jog on ye.

Speaker 1 (37:52):
Back to the point of the conversation. Do you ever
find yourself worrying about like stuff that just Matt doesn't
even matter.

Speaker 2 (37:59):
Yeah? All the time, Yeah, all the time. And it's
usually to do with what I've been watched on TV
or if, like you say, a little conversations with you.
I watched Interstellar, which, by the way, one of the
best films. It's probably my top three films of all time.
James Cameron, Matthew Mahogany, McConaughey. Well, he looks like his
Mahogany in that film. He's the browniest human being ever
in that film. It actually looks he's got bloody black face.

(38:22):
It's honestly so dark. I don't I don't think the
colors off from the edit anyway, great.

Speaker 1 (38:27):
Like this video video, w look super pale.

Speaker 2 (38:35):
Last week and I did the edit. Obviously it was
my fault. But Matthew Mahogany in that film is a
brilliant actor. But the whole film itself. Have you seen it?
What film?

Speaker 1 (38:46):
Interstellar? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (38:48):
I seen it?

Speaker 1 (38:49):
Is super tan you have you watched it recently?

Speaker 2 (38:51):
The film? Watch it this week? Honestly, and have you
watched it recently?

Speaker 1 (38:56):
You've never seen Interstellar?

Speaker 3 (38:58):
You?

Speaker 1 (38:58):
It is right up your spring, your wheelhouse that I'm surprised, wheelhouse.

Speaker 2 (39:04):
Propping in your wheelhouse? Yeah, that's in your wheelhouse side.
That's that's that I was saying. I never heard it.

Speaker 1 (39:12):
Finished your fucking anecdote, my god, sweary so impact impact Yeah,
well done.

Speaker 2 (39:19):
So it's basically the premises, the go and try and
find another planet to live on. The Earth's covering dust.
There's a load of dust and they've got to leave Earth.
And he leaves his ten year old daughter behind. He's like,
and his and his and his son, Yeah, all.

Speaker 1 (39:31):
Right, who is Timothy Charlamage in an early But but
she actually.

Speaker 2 (39:37):
Remember the film really well, that's really weird. I remember that. God,
you're so weird. Sometimes I didn't remember that. I to
watch the film again anyway. So, but it's more poignant
his ten year ol daughter left behind. She's really upset
just and she literally sods her off. It's like it
is by like dry it picks for a dollar, it's
saying the night to him. Goes, see, I buy him
off to a planets anyway, the first planet of land on.

(40:01):
They're about to land on it, and the astronauts up
there that have been there out this planet for years,
and he goes and the guy in the spaceship in
the space in the in the in the Thunderbird five,
the guy in Thunderbird five is like, when you go
down that planet, one hour is seven years in Earth.

Speaker 1 (40:17):
Yeah, And I'm like, yeah, that's what boggle pause and
then that's it.

Speaker 2 (40:22):
For the rest of the night, I'm thinking about how
that is even possible they put it out of gravity.

Speaker 1 (40:27):
Because it felt like that could actually be the real
thing until he ended up in that weird bookcase of
all those lines, and I thought that.

Speaker 2 (40:33):
That, Yeah, but that's really good, felt like it could happen. Yeah,
it is good that scene though, because then we're gonna
give away from Andy. Let's not give it. Yeah, no,
don't give it away, said.

Speaker 1 (40:43):
We're definitely clutching at straws where we're pulling on the
whole story.

Speaker 2 (40:47):
No, No, what I'm saying is so that so just
the thought of that. So he went down to that
planet knowing that when I was seven seven years what
a selfish bugger like. So anyway, they go down and
it all gets cocked up on the there.

Speaker 1 (41:00):
Again, don't get into the whole storyline. It's a really
good film, you know what must.

Speaker 2 (41:04):
I think a bit? I'm thinking about that film all night.
What was Yeah?

Speaker 1 (41:08):
What was the thread of how did we got on
to that worrying about stuff that doesn't really matter to you?

Speaker 2 (41:12):
Well done?

Speaker 1 (41:13):
Yeah's an interesting fact about that film is that the
field of corn in it. Christopher Nolan actually grew the
field of corn to sell it to make money back
on the film, and they did sell it and.

Speaker 2 (41:24):
James Cameron idiot, So he actually grew.

Speaker 1 (41:29):
He grew the field of corn and made profit on it.

Speaker 2 (41:31):
What are you in advance?

Speaker 1 (41:33):
I don't know that the find finding details, but that
actually happened.

Speaker 2 (41:36):
That's how long are we on?

Speaker 1 (41:38):
Andy probably had squeeze another twenty.

Speaker 2 (41:43):
Out leave What are the features? We're still developing the podcast?
What the features do we want in here?

Speaker 1 (41:56):
I don't think we need too many?

Speaker 2 (41:57):
Think you've got a mental mums. I've got a stupid question.

Speaker 1 (42:00):
Trying to help ourselves out here, aren't we? So they've
got stupid question at the mental mum?

Speaker 2 (42:05):
What was it?

Speaker 1 (42:05):
Mental mums?

Speaker 2 (42:06):
And what delusional dads?

Speaker 1 (42:07):
And so still the doors are wide open for you
to send in some stuff to us, aren't.

Speaker 2 (42:13):
They anything like you've? Like all my mates listening.

Speaker 1 (42:17):
We're on all the social media platforms. I even went
on Blue.

Speaker 2 (42:20):
Sky robs on that. I just I just want what
is blue Sky? Is it Twitter?

Speaker 1 (42:24):
It looks exactly like Twitter is where people are going
to escape the the what people believe is too far
right wing on Twitter? On Twitter?

Speaker 2 (42:33):
X the noise is it?

Speaker 1 (42:34):
What do we ask? Andy his thoughts on the on
Twitter and X.

Speaker 2 (42:41):
Is he very left with thinking democrat originally then very
left with Twitter suppression of the last election. Interesting, right,
he's more left.

Speaker 1 (42:56):
Okay, thanks Andy?

Speaker 2 (42:57):
So is he anything to do with Twitter? Nigel Morrison? Sorry,
so he's helpened a new.

Speaker 1 (43:04):
One called blues Guy, which looks exactly like Twitter. But
I went on it to claim our handles banners ban
and manhood or whatever because I didn't want anyone else
to nick them, like what happened with our dumbat and
someone took it over and now we're trying to claw
it all back, trying to anyway. Battersban dot com is
back up and running. But what I see on X now, Andy,
I don't know if you've noticed, this is all I
see is people getting murdered, like literal videos of people

(43:27):
getting murdered.

Speaker 2 (43:28):
Pawn. You can't.

Speaker 1 (43:30):
You can't safely flick through X if you're sitting next
to your kids. You can't safely frick through X anymore,
can you, because you'd be like, oh yeah, political political,
look at size of them, bad boys. Political political political.
We've just followed that someone getting the throat slip?

Speaker 2 (43:45):
Have you followed them?

Speaker 1 (43:46):
No? No, no no, because now a single man now
now on on Twitter or X there are two threads.
The default thread is for you and it literally just
guesses the ship that you want to look at. And
then there's the following thread, which is where you can
just look at stuff you're following.

Speaker 2 (44:03):
Why are we Foreign Office in Terriers says because.

Speaker 1 (44:06):
They sponsored Brafford City and I thought they might be
able to help us out with a bit of furniture
for our studio.

Speaker 2 (44:13):
Not yet, Not yet, I can guarantee on a will
before it will be for following summer because he only
throw I'm sure.

Speaker 1 (44:21):
No, no, no, Well, in that case, you need to
stop looking at Paul and X so that I stopped
getting it delivered to me.

Speaker 2 (44:27):
What's this one? Cold blooded murders? At cold you're following,
were following some murders.

Speaker 1 (44:31):
Following Now we're not following murders.

Speaker 2 (44:34):
Have you seen the one where the guys in the
motorbike and it's Willy falls off. Yeah, they make me
feel sick.

Speaker 1 (44:40):
I can't believe. That's another thing that's mentally damaging us.

Speaker 2 (44:44):
Now. I want to get it o things that we
would never have seen.

Speaker 1 (44:46):
Before, like warfare instays Ukraine. What how many how many
soldiers you.

Speaker 2 (44:49):
Seen it blown up on us? Drone by drones? Have
you seen that one where the drone goes in. There's
like there's like Muhammad al fire what it's called. And
he's just sat there behind the sofa and he's he's
covered like plasterboard and does a lot like this room actually,
and then the drone just goes in like that and
like looks at him and then just goes and he
tries to hit it with a broom and he gets

(45:12):
and goes shouting, goes.

Speaker 1 (45:17):
That's I mean, I know that's real and we shouldn't
laugh at a war.

Speaker 2 (45:21):
But I think he's a were a baddie.

Speaker 1 (45:22):
I think depends on which way you're politically aligned. Be careful.

Speaker 2 (45:28):
It's like baddy like superheroes. He were like Thanos. You
have to be politically riding fanats were a baddie.

Speaker 1 (45:35):
I'm scared to say anything.

Speaker 2 (45:36):
Did anyone think that Captain America were a baddy in
that film?

Speaker 1 (45:39):
Some people, dude, dude, some people did. We've got everyone
thought Hill were a bad he did. Loads of people
joined his parties, went on those rallies, what not a
lot of people not to say, let's move on, let's
move on, go on.

Speaker 2 (45:54):
But he was a great painter.

Speaker 1 (45:56):
But that's just another example of technology. In it now
where soldiers don't even have to to upones. It reminded
me of have you ever seen Arrested Development? Have you
seen and there's an episode of Arrested Development where the
I mean it's a comedy and they send one son
to army camp and because he's been playing Call of
Duty or whatever game all his life is really good

(46:17):
with the drones and blow stuff up, so it doesn't.

Speaker 2 (46:20):
They set him.

Speaker 1 (46:22):
Playing on a computer blowing up places and stuff like that,
and he thinks it's called duty, it's real, and he's
saying stuff like have that is like mixed school and
blowing it up, and then he realizes it's real.

Speaker 2 (46:36):
Oh my god, that's terrible. Quite funny though it was
a comedy, But this is so you don't have to
be at war. You can just be in your bedroom
with picturing poster and Linda Vestire on your wall, just
like killing people. That is so bad.

Speaker 1 (46:49):
What if, for instance, the new call it if we
live in this dystopian world, what if the latest Call
of Duty that's brought out is actually attached to real drones? Yeah,
and you actually you feel like we just don't he's fake,
but it's real.

Speaker 2 (47:02):
Yeah, look man, look madam, Butterback loses Willy. No, that's
a real guy and it basically it hits the going
down road and it looks like knocking my mind. It
looks like he's in Liverpool, so like red brick buildings, British,
he's British. And he clips the curb and he's grind
just hits this little red dwarf wall which kind of
say looks really well built, like it's probably for a

(47:23):
little anyway he can small water comes out the bottom
getting when shorts and he goes he stands up and
he goes like jingles the leg and it just goes blop.

Speaker 1 (47:35):
And you know what it does, what picks up obviously,
I mean that's in it.

Speaker 2 (47:39):
And he's dizzy and he's like and I think he
passes out with the sheer thought of it, Like, can
you imagine we should get someone on the podcast where
this is what they've got no penis because it's imagine horrible,
isn't it.

Speaker 1 (47:51):
They've lost in a tragic accident. Oh many of those
people around are we're gonna I don't know how listeners
and listeners about I don't know how I would handle
that conversation what would.

Speaker 2 (48:06):
You rather lose? This is actually quite serious. Actually, you
WILLI are your head, my will Oh what I wanted?
I went extreme because if you lose your head, you're
going to die. I'm thinking about it. It's obviously you.

Speaker 1 (48:25):
Willy once you want to be dead because you don't
have a willie.

Speaker 2 (48:30):
That's quite that's what, all right, Willy or bum? But
but what does that mean? I've got who out of
my willie? He gets redirected, Yeah, gets redirected, putting new
valve in anyway?

Speaker 1 (48:49):
I think we might be clutching at straws. I think
so should we?

Speaker 2 (48:54):
Should we end on my stupid question? Yeah right?

Speaker 1 (48:56):
The show is coming to twenty minutes stint before Tom
tells us his stupid question to round off the episode.
Don't forget we want to hear about your mental mum's
delusional dad's chaotic cares, sending your messages to us.

Speaker 2 (49:10):
I think we could rebranded as mad mums.

Speaker 1 (49:13):
Fine, what it's much of a muchness, but send us
in your stories about any of those. We want to
We want to hear them, because if you don't, were
gonna to start making some up or googling other people's
so you can get us on at Manhood Pod on
Instagram and now Blue have an email.

Speaker 2 (49:34):
Now you cannot get us on any of the platforms
including Blue Sky.

Speaker 1 (49:39):
Yeah yeah, the player playhouse. Yeah, Blue Sky.

Speaker 2 (49:43):
It was to do with like sky or the sea,
like the golden Sea, Golden Sky, golden Sun.

Speaker 1 (49:51):
They're always they're not about super walk, part of the
ocean that breed.

Speaker 2 (49:58):
Get a wall of all sun size Ski. It's all
like you know, gray or sunny or happy happy sun,
happy sky. In fact, the Chinese takeaway game, just think
of let's put.

Speaker 1 (50:12):
That I know that again with sky somehow dragging another
few minutes out of this, but.

Speaker 2 (50:18):
That remains happy Sky Chinese London.

Speaker 1 (50:20):
Yeah amazing, but thanks for that. But that made me.
Chinese restaurants or Chinese takeaways. Do you think that the
food they're serving as you just bang average Chinese food,
Like if we went over to China roast dinners and
like just home dinners, no particularly good.

Speaker 2 (50:36):
If we went to Beijing and went to the nearest restaurant,
you can have sweet and sour chicken, please.

Speaker 1 (50:40):
Because and you've got you've got a place in America,
you've probably had a Chinese in America.

Speaker 2 (50:47):
Chinese noodles over there.

Speaker 1 (50:48):
But Chinese food in America is nothing like Chinese food
over here. They don't know what prawn toast is and
stuff like that. I'm not talking the door. Do they
have it come from? All that deep fried? Does it
come from?

Speaker 2 (50:59):
Then? Well?

Speaker 1 (51:00):
Probably probably colonialism. We've gone fucking deep fry that ship now,
like put it in better. You know, when the British Empire,
the British arming we went over to take over India.
They went over and all the meat was dry, so
like I want gravy, so basically made some Indian chap
make teaka sauce so that it were a bit saucy.

Speaker 2 (51:19):
Yeah, I've heard that one, but I think the Chinese.

Speaker 1 (51:22):
Chinese food in there'll be videos on YouTube. Chinese food
in America is completely different to ours. They don't have
the same deep riddled stuff.

Speaker 2 (51:30):
What the hell do you want about what Chinese food
in China is different?

Speaker 1 (51:34):
Yeah, British. What we're saying is British Chinese food is
completely different to what it is anything else or in China.

Speaker 2 (51:41):
It's just its own cuisine, all right. So with America
it's noodles, yeah, like a box.

Speaker 1 (51:45):
Yeah, noodles and it's you know, the flavors are much
more delicate.

Speaker 2 (51:48):
I don't know it. Well, you know, get Chinese mate food?

Speaker 1 (51:51):
You did a China think about when you are a
sweet and sour chicken boars, it's the it's weirdly gloopy.
It's like not in it but red is. But in America,
if you order sweet and sour balls, you'll get the
deep fried chicken.

Speaker 2 (52:05):
Why would if it was an actual Chinese cuisine, why
would they call it sweet and sour balls? And it's
so difficult to say for a Chinese person. Do you
know what I mean that? It's really tricky in it?

Speaker 1 (52:18):
What's your stupid question?

Speaker 2 (52:20):
And I'm taking all my energy to not doing im
pressure Chinese saying. It's really hard to saying it a
little bit of it. I don't think the l exists anyway.
The stupid question of the week. We should have some jingles?

Speaker 1 (52:34):
Should we We'll get do you know what we used
to be really good at that? We should just dig
at our jingles? Breakfast show my job? We should if
we should dig out the jingles for our breakfast show
and just redo that.

Speaker 2 (52:45):
Have we've got a spare input there? Yeah? Yeah, you
could just play it out there, job for next week,
something else to buy those stupid question if right? Okay,
So you are you're bo okay, and you're you're really
close to your dad. Your dad raises you, okay, and

(53:07):
the tipe this period is about the nineteen thirties, okay,
thirty fortes, so your dad's raising it really close. You
do everything together. You do sport together, you paint together,
you eat German sausage together. You'll come an apparent in
a minute. You play a loads of German sports together,

(53:27):
you do German instrument letters together. And you're really close,
and I mean really close to your dad. Right, and
then you get to be about twelve thirteen year old,
and then you realize your dad's hitler. Okay. And then
someone comes from the future, the guy from leap Frog.
What's it called leap quantum leap? The guy from quantum.

Speaker 1 (53:50):
Leap comes to change the course of history.

Speaker 2 (53:53):
No, no, it comes back in time.

Speaker 1 (53:56):
It's all about it. It comes back to changing the
course of history.

Speaker 2 (53:58):
Right, okay, not him. Then somebody comes from the future.
Let's see you called Manuel, Manuel, you.

Speaker 1 (54:09):
Make this unnecessary man?

Speaker 2 (54:11):
Germany is anywayru he called something? Say your dad's bloody Hitler.
He's gonna is gonna he is gonna do mass suicide.
You need to kill him. It's not mass suicide, mass genocide.
You need to kill it's an evil dictator changes the
world for the world than you. He's saying it all
to you, and then he goes, you need to kill him.
It shows you evidence, photos, everything, all this stuff to stratch.

(54:35):
It shows you all that, and he goes, the question
is would you kill your own dad?

Speaker 1 (54:41):
Interesting, that's a question for the listeners. We will answer
it ourselves.

Speaker 2 (54:45):
Next.

Speaker 1 (54:45):
That's one thing I could twist it back on you.
Is you you find out someone comes back from the
future now and says one of your children becomes a
really evil dictator and blows up half the world.

Speaker 2 (54:57):
That's a better question, would you kill your own child?

Speaker 1 (55:00):
So incorporate that into it. We're not going to go
back over it, but we incorporate all that with that.

Speaker 2 (55:04):
Tom said, and said Hitler's dad.

Speaker 1 (55:07):
If you're if a relative, if a relative of yours
changed the course of history for the words, they become
evil in the future, and someone from the future comes
back and says, you've got to kill that relative to
save the world.

Speaker 2 (55:20):
Would you kill either have to be a child. It
has to be, because that's the hardest decision, is it
would you kill them that actually would? This is not
even stupid.

Speaker 1 (55:27):
Anyway, Let's answer it now. That's the question for next week.
Thanks for listening to this episode of Manhood. If you've
bothered most haven't, tell your friends all about it, and
we'll be back next week sending your stuff for the features.
Followers on social media. So we look at the camera
and did say bye bye bye man
