Speaker 1 (00:00):
Caught me up on this week's Chewing the Cud. I'm
talking about an unfortunate time to say the.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
Wrong thing, and I'm bringing you news about a beauty
product that's inspiring a lot of people. Sounds good to me.
Let's do it.

Speaker 1 (00:28):
Welcome to During the Cud with Me, Mike Beninroe and
my good friend co host Lee Robertson.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
How you doing. I'm doing all right, I'm very yellow today.
I'm like a ray of sunshine. Like something we're bringing
you all the showbies needs that you could ever need,
as well as some fun stories.

Speaker 1 (00:45):
Well you are good to us all, aren't you. So
what would be good for us this week?

Speaker 2 (00:49):
Well, I have a story about a very famous actor
who's been poking fun at the Kardashians. Oh, I'm already
invested in this story. Anthony Hopkins. Anthony Hopkins, Sir Anthony Hopkins.
He has been taking the mick out of Kim Kardashian,

(01:11):
which is amazing. So so, Kim Kardashian has launched something
called She has this product called Skims, which is like
this sort of like body shaping weear. But she's brought
out something called the Ultimate Face, which is a shape
where for your face, which fans have likened it to

(01:34):
that from the Silence of the Lambs. So he has
got on board with it, which is, you know, quite
unusual for gentlemen se to his age, because they don't normally.
He does get quite on board with a lot of stuff. Yeah,
so so he's obviously been he's been noted about it
and just picked on when he's kind of taking a
picture of himself wearing I don't think it's and I
think he's just got a bit of surgical stocking from somewhere,

(01:57):
put it on his face and put it on me,
saying hello, Kim, I'm already feeling ten years younger. Goodbye.
In the Hannibal Like to voice recreating the film's legendary
falva beans and chante scene, he chillingly slurped at the
end of the clip with a caption, thank you, Kim,
don't be afraid to come over for dinner. I think

(02:21):
we've got a picture of him wearing it. Okay, it's brilliant.
I mean that.

Speaker 1 (02:33):
Looks like a truss that's not gonna smell fresh.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
He is a gentleman of a certain age, and sometimes
he needs a little bit of support so in general,
people have gone, what on earth is what is it?
The thing? What is it? So she's it's it's a
it's called a facial rap, okay, and it costs forty
eight quid. But there's no real information on what it's

(03:00):
supposed to do. So it's a facial wrap like a
chicken wrap. Yeah, you wear it when you go to
sleep at night. I presume it's to hold all your
skin in. Okay, why'd you keep doing that?

Speaker 1 (03:13):
Because I'm trying to gest that the clock's not been
running for the past five minutes, but.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
They're not picking up on the subtle ones.

Speaker 1 (03:20):
Very distract I know, it's less distracted than me going
on a secondly, the clock's not been running.

Speaker 2 (03:30):
No, well, at least it's silent, and it's not while
I'm on camera, So it doesn't have any clear instructions
of what it's supposed to do or what it's supposed
to be. It just says it's it is a Kim
Kardashian money I think is alto soft jaw support and
that's it.

Speaker 1 (03:45):
Yeah, if you started to feel a bit saggy, maybe, yeah.

Speaker 2 (03:48):
I just love the fact that Anthony Hopkins now knows
Kim Kardashian is I'm sort of money making thing? Were you?
Are you a rom com fan? No?

Speaker 1 (04:01):
No, no, I don't want I don't want comedy well
as roaming about not.

Speaker 2 (04:07):
Even the like the ones from the nineties that everybody looks, Okay, well,
you're not gonna like this. My best Friend's wedding is
getting a sequel? Did you not like best Friend's Wedding?
It was cute.

Speaker 1 (04:18):
What's the story behind best Friend's wedding?

Speaker 2 (04:20):
Yeah, but it was a different time appropriate though. Anyway.
It came out in nineteen ninety seven. Julia Roberts, Cameron Diaz,
dem Malrooney what and it's I love how that thrown

(04:44):
you off. It's in very early development, which means it's
probably no script. Shall we do this again? But the
actors have sound on for it. They said, yes, we
will do it. Yes. The original story was not particularly
It's Julia Roberts was trying to stop the marriage of
her best friend and because they've done this promise that

(05:08):
if they were still single by the age of twenty eight,
they would marry. It's twenty eight years later, good grade film. Yeah,
and the say a Little Prayer song bit in it was.
So we've got some pictures of what they looked like
then in the film and what they're look like now.
So obviously Julia Roberts looks amazing.

Speaker 1 (05:28):
I mean, you know, if she's had a freshen up,
I wouldn't be angry at her because it looks like.

Speaker 2 (05:33):
That's the whole point, isn't it. You don't look like
you've had anything done. You just look like a nice
sleep the holiday. So we've got Julia Roberts, and then
we have Dermot Mulrooney. Okay, let's rested. Well, he's aged
appropriately appropriately. Yes. Yeah, he was very cute as a

(05:54):
young man. Now he's a silver fox. Okay, you're not
convinced that I.

Speaker 1 (06:00):
Didn't find him attractive when he was young, many that
it was not really in my bag.

Speaker 2 (06:03):
I get it's handsome, it's just not for me, all right,
Cameron T. Yes, we've got and again she she she
kind of disappeared from Hollywood for good ten years, kind
of got burnt out by it and was not interested,
got married, had kids, started to come back into doing
films and stuff. And again she looks fantastic. Yes, And

(06:24):
then that's when I notice we've got Richard. No, I
think we've got rupered Everett. Now I think he's aged better.
He has aged better. He's a something that wasn't afraid
of the old botox and filler and at one point
had overdone it. And he's he himself a struggle, has

(06:46):
talked about his struggle with aging. Horry doesn't like it.
But but all in all, yeah, So when it's out,
nobody knows, but it's.

Speaker 1 (06:56):
Coming apparently possibly maybe.

Speaker 2 (07:00):
This is in the script. I don't know what they
will be. Perhaps she'll go and try and break up.
Because he got married in the end, not Julie Roberts
to who he was supposed to get married to. He
didn't stop the wedding. No, everything she did backfired and
as he should do, made it look like a horrible person,
which she was a horrible person in it. That's why

(07:21):
sheby's news. So King Charles's launched his own range of
beard grooming products made from a range of midge repellent
plants found on his Balmoral estate. So he doesn't have
a beard now, but in his youth he supported a
bit of facial fuzz. Both Harry and William have beards

(07:43):
now because at one point they were alads have beards
the royal family. They had to be clean shape and
unless they were doing something in the armed forces, they
weren't allowed to.

Speaker 1 (07:57):
The Queen didn't. She never had a beard, No grew
Victoria never had a bed. Elizabeth never had a beard.

Speaker 2 (08:03):
No.

Speaker 1 (08:04):
So yeah, I think for a while it has been
that the monarch doesn't have a bed. No, well, I
don't think it applied to every monarch.

Speaker 2 (08:10):
No, no, no, no. Anyway, he's fifty thousand acre residents
in Aberdeenshire, has got this collection of beard, all beard oils,
washes and barms, and they're all made from stuff that
grows on his estate because he's very into plants and
herbs and all that kind of stuff. It's so it's

(08:33):
been infused with wild bog Okay, wild bog myrtle, well
known ingredient hand foraged from the grounds of the barb
or of the state. But it's what's your job, Oh,
I just gather the I just gather bog myrtle. That's
my job. And apparently it's been used for centuries and

(08:55):
centris to keep me away. So if you there's also
signature sense. If you want to smell like Prince Charles.
One's called the Laird Okay, which is a bright such
a spice blend of pink, grapefruit, lemon, verbin, the beana
and cinnamon, Rabina's favorite drink and cinnamon leaf and chieftain,

(09:18):
a grounding mix of Norwegian for cedar wood and petuli
inspired by the inspired by the Highland forests. If you
want some of it. The organic beard oil is twenty
five quid for for ye little jar okay, would you
do you do? Do you beard oil? I do beard oil?
Or if you want no, I'm not suching. The wash

(09:43):
cost thirty two quid. Do you want to wash? You
want to wash your bead? And an oil like it's
going to cost you about fifty quid. Okay. It's a
smell like Prince Charles. Yeah, like Prince Charles. And you
can go on the website they have about moral website.
It sounds all sorts of stuff.

Speaker 1 (10:00):
He's very big at reselling it and blessing people enjoy
his wars.

Speaker 2 (10:05):
Yes, Camilla doesn't have anything. She hasn't got a range.

Speaker 1 (10:11):
I think she might have Amilla candle.

Speaker 2 (10:14):
Do you think I don't think she does? Smells he
ford gin and for cash to use that. No, well
she doesn't smoke anymore. No, she's smoking. Yeah, still, thanks Lee,
What are you bringing those after the break?

Speaker 1 (10:30):
Min Well, I'm going to be talking about saying the
wrong thing at the worst possible time.

Speaker 2 (10:34):
To stay right there. Welcome back to chewing the cord now, Mike,
saying the wrong thing at the wrong time is an
autobiographical thing for you, I believe.

Speaker 1 (10:55):
No. So have you ever said something at the wrong time?

Speaker 2 (11:03):
Always? What one sad woman when she was jew uh
huh not pregnant? Okay, that was awkward. There was no
way of getting out. Please, you've already done that. Asked
for a hand on belly. No, no, I do not
touch people. When do you do? Not pregnant? Okay? No,

(11:26):
I didn't just went jelly belly billy. No, I didn't
do that. I just good. There was no way. I
just went I'm really sorry. I'm just gonna go and
run across the road in front. Didn't run anywhere, I know.

(11:47):
I just went, Wow, Okay, Gregg loves you. I don't
worry about it.

Speaker 1 (12:01):
This is a story about a gentleman who was at
the altar and actually said his.

Speaker 2 (12:06):
Ex girlfriend's name of friends no, it's not so. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (12:13):
So as they were getting married, he said to his
fiance slash wife borderline Rebecca, I take thee Sarah.

Speaker 2 (12:23):
Okay, what do you think. Her reaction was, well, she's
she's laughing there, she did, she laughed.

Speaker 1 (12:32):
He said he got confused. He got confused because her
middle name was Sarah.

Speaker 2 (12:37):
Oh that he had been stopping Sarah before the wedding. Well,
he had not seen her for ten years. Okay, And
was she in the was she the audience and the audience? Yeah,
she was in the audience. Was she invited to the way?
Was she in the congregation? Congregation?

Speaker 1 (12:59):
Yeah, well it's it was a civil service, as by
the beautiful background she was.

Speaker 2 (13:07):
So she didn't she didn't take offense to it. She
didn't take offense to it.

Speaker 1 (13:10):
But there have been calls for her to divorce him.

Speaker 2 (13:13):
Because it's a red flag apparently. Well, weddings are really,
I would imagine, really a stressful situation because you've got
everybody watching you. You don't have to have everybody watching people.
You could imagine, you know, Well, it's something that they
can sort out themselves, isn't it. We don't know who
they are. We're not invested.

Speaker 1 (13:36):
So yeah, when they said do you take Rebecca Sarah
to he went, I take these Sarah.

Speaker 2 (13:43):
Oh okay, so that there were names Sarah had been
said yes, and it just well whatever people make mistake, they.

Speaker 1 (13:51):
Do like getting married. But yeah, she left it off.
They both thought it was hilarious and she's actually around
and said, right, you owe me a proper wedding now,
which I think is a dig for it being a
register of.

Speaker 2 (14:04):
Portrayed.

Speaker 1 (14:05):
I know this was very expensive, but yeah, people were saying, oh,
it's awful. It's a big red, big red flag. It
doesn't respect your divorcing. She was upset about it. She
could have just gone, I don't take thee and walked
actually now not having it now, I just walked out.

Speaker 2 (14:22):
I'm gonna.

Speaker 1 (14:25):
But she was and then her gay friend in the
wedding cultural appropriation.

Speaker 2 (14:34):
That would have been good. It would have been good.
It would have been different, would have been unique.

Speaker 1 (14:38):
How do you feel about little babbits, little rabbit, little rabbits?

Speaker 2 (14:43):
I mean they had a flavor to a cat, a
role of a winter's evening. Have you ever cooked rabbit? No? No,
eaten rabbit once?

Speaker 1 (14:53):
I think, gamey, gamey, that means that ladder burdock. So yeah,
there's rabbits have been found right with with an unusual feature.

Speaker 2 (15:09):
Oh, I don't like this story. What if it's Is
it the one the mutant rabbits? Okay, it is the
mutant rabbit? Oh okay, right, okay, now.

Speaker 1 (15:23):
Okay, so so strange Frankenstein bunnies right with huge growth
it is.

Speaker 2 (15:30):
I hate I'm not looking at it. It's horrible. Yeah,
teased me in.

Speaker 1 (15:39):
So yeah, they've identified these characterized tumors, of course, by
sharp palmer violence or CPRV, which is triggered by insect bites.

Speaker 2 (15:46):
I don't like it. You don't like it. It's it
reminds me of that program, The Last of Us, you know,
the people.

Speaker 1 (15:56):
Let's take that picture off, let's take it away. Take
it that's better.

Speaker 2 (16:02):
I hate you. I hate it here.

Speaker 1 (16:06):
So apparently the rabbits have developed black horn like jurors.
Apparently they're deeply unsettling.

Speaker 2 (16:11):
It is deep. I can't look at it.

Speaker 1 (16:14):
And they're transmitted via mosquitoes or ticks, and they're normally
harmless unless they stop eating or vision, so they're just growing.

Speaker 2 (16:21):
They get over it. Does it hurt? I don't like it.

Speaker 1 (16:24):
They're just they're characterized so that they're just like humory
kind of things.

Speaker 2 (16:28):
Horns.

Speaker 1 (16:29):
Yeah, the rabbits can survive and even recover, so that's good.
So it's like an get a bitten by a midgie
and your arm swells up. That's what's happened there. It's
just very very big swelling, black swelling and point like
a thing. And the concerning thing, of course, is the
transmissibilf to human.

Speaker 2 (16:49):
Side of stuff.

Speaker 1 (16:50):
So what people are saying is that if you do
get bitten by a mosquito and you do start to
notice that it's growing, it's not transmisible.

Speaker 2 (16:59):
There was many questions and I was like, what by
a rabbit that's been bitten by a or bitten by
a mosquito and you know growing the mosquito or the
bite on your arm like mosquito.

Speaker 1 (17:11):
Yeah, it's not. The fribes cannot affect humans at all.

Speaker 2 (17:15):
Okay, I don't, I just don't. I think it's really scary.

Speaker 1 (17:20):
It's really scary. I mean, it's it's a natural thing.
It happens, it's an infection. It's not pretty.

Speaker 2 (17:26):
Can they it's in America, isn't the UK in Scotland
all over.

Speaker 1 (17:33):
I don't because it's all over the place. See what
they have one is they have what people with rabbits
as pets.

Speaker 2 (17:42):
To just be aware that these mosquitoes pet rabbit. I
thought it was a wild rabbit.

Speaker 1 (17:48):
Well, they are in wild rabbits, but pet rabbits are
obviously rabbits.

Speaker 2 (17:53):
So if you could go up in the morning and
your pet rabbit is like fungus head, oh, I'm not
happy with that. It's not like the different animal. I
don't have a rabbit. I'm just not happy in general.

Speaker 1 (18:04):
What's the difference between a wild rabbit and discussed a
little wild rabbit and a domesticated rabbit if it's in
a casion your gardener.

Speaker 2 (18:10):
But kind of like that, you can think, oh, it's
just like a natural illness and the wild it's natural.
But no, no, no, would you let me move on? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (18:21):
Okay, how do you feel about tumors on rabbits? Talking
of tumors, he's making news again for his words, but
for his doings is poops. Oh no no, the front doings.

Speaker 2 (18:41):
Front doings is genitalia and what.

Speaker 1 (18:44):
He does with them. There's been a gentleman smoothies, a
gentleman who is saying, I am ELS's lone lost son.

Speaker 2 (18:53):
To be fair, it could be true because he's had
a lot of children by lots of different people.

Speaker 1 (18:58):
Yeah, so this is the first in question. There is
a family resemblance.

Speaker 2 (19:05):
There uncanny.

Speaker 1 (19:06):
Right now, the forty year old kenyanman has basically he's
gone viral saying he's Elon Musk's son. Right, he's saying
he's the firstborn because apparently was conceived after his mother
had a brief fling with a twenty year old Elon
Musk in the early nineties.

Speaker 2 (19:22):
How old is Elon Musk? Now, right, let's just do
do the maths again. This forty year old, he's forty.

Speaker 1 (19:29):
He's forty said that his mother had a fling with
a twenty year old Elon Musk in the nineteen nineties.
I don't do that, okay, So just tell me the
age twenty twenty five.

Speaker 2 (19:44):
Now I don't know. Thirty years ago.

Speaker 1 (19:47):
Is nineteen ninety five, So forty years ago is nineteen
eighty five.

Speaker 2 (19:53):
Just numbers. Just tell me he was twelve. Maths doesn't work.
It couldn't have.

Speaker 1 (19:58):
Couldn't worked because he would have actually been born a
full set of of No. No, this forty year old
would have had to have been born ten years before
he's saying he was conceived.

Speaker 2 (20:10):
Oh okay, whoo right.

Speaker 1 (20:16):
A lot of people are saying that the images are
AI generated, right because the distortions in the images. El
Almost has publicly acknowledged fourteen children, none of which fit
into this gentleman's story.

Speaker 2 (20:32):
So it's like that dude that keeps saying is Prince
Charles is the lamate son, and he looks like he's old.
What are you laughing at? Did you hear what I
just said about Prince Harry? He said, that's my daddy.
Illegitimates what happened. He's right, ginger right, the old dude

(20:53):
that keeps saying, I'm Prince Charles is a legitimate son,
and he's like two years older than or too younger
than Prince King Charles. Sorry.

Speaker 1 (21:06):
So yeah, so definitely going to most likely be a lie.

Speaker 2 (21:10):
I mean, it's not a thing you would want to
boast about as the richest man in the world. Well
there is that, and he will have to die soon. Well,
he'll be lying soon, He'll be a head in a
bottle of bleach from aldehyde bottle. Of bleach rama.

Speaker 1 (21:27):
Yeah, and if you want to be almost head in
a bottle of bleach. But yeah, that's all that we
have from the show this week. Thank you for watching.
I will see you all soon.

Speaker 2 (21:37):
So do you have any illegitimate kids that you're aware
of
