Dermot and Dave, weekdays

0:02

from 9am. Today

0:04

FM. Dave's World,

0:07

Dave's World, if we don't let

0:09

him do it he gets ratty. Oh my God.

0:11

An unavoidable

0:11

fact of life. When you said that,

0:14

the time was 11.11. That

0:17

means you're going to die 11 times worse. I'd

0:21

be actually really happy if I got 11 chances

0:23

at it. I was asking where on

0:25

earth is it illegal to die? Here

0:27

are some of your answers that have come in on 0874100102. Neyland

0:31

and Doxas, Buckingham Palace. No,

0:33

I don't

0:33

think you can die there. The Playboy Mansion. Also

0:35

don't think you're fully within your rights to die there. I

0:38

remember reading about it, it's a town in Brazil where the mayor

0:40

made it illegal to die in the early 2000s.

0:43

No, that's not what I'm thinking of. What will

0:45

they do? Fine you or put your dead corpse

0:47

in prison? I'd like to see that court of case, says the text.

0:50

Which is fair I suppose. It

0:52

is illegal though here. Let's say you're not allowed to die

0:54

here. We're going to have to put you in jail. Over my

0:56

dead body! Carmel and Claire

0:58

says it's illegal to die in Parliament.

1:00

No, also not illegal there. And Owen

1:02

Leash says, Anfield Dave, I know

1:04

I wouldn't be caught dead in there. Whey!

1:07

And then he says, jokes and banter. Yes

1:09

Owen, yes Owen. It's great banter.

1:12

A lot of people do know this though, which is very interesting.

1:14

Seamus Masterson knew it in Ireland. Dunnegal,

1:16

someone else says it here as well. It is, someone

1:18

says like it's an island off

1:20

the coast of Norway. This is true. It's

1:23

a place called Svalbard,

1:25

which is a remote Norwegian island. And

1:28

it is illegal to die on

1:30

Svalbard because you cannot

1:33

bury anybody. Because the ground

1:35

is permafrost. You can't

1:37

dig it out and put people into it. It's not

1:39

going to work. Making it illegal

1:41

to die is, you know,

1:43

it's not as if people, you know,

1:45

pencil in their death into their diary. Well,

1:48

certainly I would imagine accidental death

1:50

must be, you know, forgiven.

1:53

But if you are on the island of Svalbard and

1:55

you live there and you're getting close to

1:57

death, you are flown to the

1:59

mainland. mainland of Norway, get off the island

2:02

and go and die over there. Surely they could just,

2:04

you know, it's easier to transport

2:07

a dead body than a live body, certainly.

2:09

Like, could they not just box you up

2:12

and send you over when you're,

2:13

when you pop the box? Apparently not. It's just,

2:15

it is illegal to die on Svalbard. It

2:17

is a bit dramatic. It is very dramatic, I feel. But

2:20

these are the laws and people have been living there for

2:22

centuries and they're all fine with it. They're just

2:24

not allowed to die on Svalbard. Well, if it's that

2:27

cold, why don't they just preserve their

2:29

loved ones? That

2:31

wouldn't be macabre at all. I know, but you

2:33

could get one of those like a, like a stand

2:36

from a small stadium and

2:38

just put people sitting in the stand like

2:40

sibutio people, just frozen

2:42

in time. So much of this is wrong.

2:45

No, none of that. Don't do that at all. Pre-tourist

2:47

attraction, I mean? Yeah. Do

2:50

you know the difference between

2:52

ginger beer and ginger ale?

2:55

No, no, not at all. I always been curious

2:57

about this. OK, well, here you go. Ginger

3:00

beer is brewed and fermented

3:02

with ginger and

3:03

ginger ale is just carbonated

3:06

water flavoured with ginger.

3:08

But ginger beer isn't alcoholic,

3:11

though, is it? It is, yeah. Ginger beer

3:13

is. But I buy things called ginger beer

3:15

that aren't alcoholic. Oh, yeah, like the

3:18

the butt things.

3:20

What are they called again? The Australian ones? That's a different

3:22

kind of... There's definitely butt things.

3:27

I used to buy them as well. And they do call them

3:29

ginger beer, but well, unless they ferment

3:31

it and take the alcohol out, because fermentation

3:34

obviously will create alcohol.

3:35

You can get an alcoholic ginger beer.

3:37

Yeah, that's why it's called that, because it's brewed in

3:39

the same way that beer is. Maybe they have. Yeah.

3:41

But ginger ale is just that. I'd love to try an alcoholic

3:44

ginger beer sometime just to see what

3:46

it was like. Honestly. I

3:49

don't have a problem. What's the name of the butt thing

3:51

before I sound really weird? What's the name of the Australian

3:53

company that sells ginger beer in that bottle

3:55

and you peel the top off?

3:58

It sounds like the butts. Does

4:00

anyone know 087-41012? He said

4:02

it works more, it'll come back to you. Why does it make me

4:04

sound less weird than I currently do?
