Yeah. So our interiors, Shopee Shake,
2:25
oh, piss off. Anyway,
2:28
talk to the witch. let's let's
2:30
have a splash. You
2:34
know, we've said that we should do a tiddly episode.
2:37
Yeah. Well, obviously, next week, it's our live
2:39
stream episode. It's all good. And it's all in
2:41
the evening. We'll get it's slightly more
2:43
social acceptable time. I think we
2:45
But, yeah, we've got a pop after it. Can you remember
2:47
in our last slide? Loud in there. Like, what
2:49
time is it open till there? We'll break the rules.
2:52
I think you don't have to kick the bloody door and
2:54
again, Anna, people are lost. Can
2:56
you
2:57
remember the last time you called Willie? Jesus.
2:59
Is everything alright? Oh, It's
3:02
just pouring yourself a pint of gin and lemonade.
3:05
I'm tired of getting a pint. That's a full pint
3:07
of gin and lemonade. Alrighty.
3:11
You're your mother son on. Right? You
3:15
get
3:15
that. You quit that
3:17
out right now. You know
3:19
in our last livestream -- Mhmm. -- which we did I think
3:22
in twenty twenty one,
3:25
maybe it was sort of kind of COVIDy time.
3:27
We did live stream. Can you remember, I won't go
3:29
over it now. But I I said
3:31
something
3:32
that got us into the site a bit above
3:35
them. Mainly
3:35
you. Well, what did you say? Someone
3:37
had written in a letter about relationships
3:40
at work. And I
3:43
innocently turned to you and said, have you ever had
3:45
a relationship with someone at work? Anyway, and it all got
3:47
a little bit awkward. An ice generally
3:49
said that hand on
3:50
heart. Forgetting.
3:51
Yeah. Forget forgetting
3:53
what. And
3:54
then the papers phoned you up and said, is
3:56
it true that you're a generation with x, which is not
3:58
true at all?
3:58
Oh, yeah. Yeah. I remember you
4:00
found when you said, oh, they think I'm in a Basically,
4:03
before I was in a a relation to the
4:05
papers one
4:06
paper in particular was gonna run a story that
4:08
as a relationship with Parade. I've had
4:10
from work. I've never lost an odd
4:12
amount. You've ever met Parade. You
4:14
all realize that Parade is lesbian. Well,
4:17
you don't won't realize that she's a lesbian.
4:19
No. Is that really harsh? But if
4:21
she I mean I mean, that said she last
4:23
time I met
4:23
her. Told me she was on a fingering band.
4:26
So you're back with an about thirty seconds. Wait.
4:28
Wait. So, Murray, anyway,
4:30
a later on girl than I say. Thought it was really
4:33
funny. I was like, oh, apparently, we're in a relationship
4:35
together. What that paper's been associated, Jordan,
4:37
you need to get that story buried in May.
4:40
They've got friends and family in
4:41
Belfast. They don't want them breathing now.
4:44
So yeah, I forgot about that.
4:46
So I wonder what I'll say this year.
4:49
God. Can I just say that?
4:51
Live unfiltered and unedited. I
4:53
did a interview. We are a national
4:55
newspaper a couple of weeks ago. Mhmm. The
4:57
sun. And when
5:00
you've got the journalists from them.
5:02
And I was quite worried because they were
5:05
asking if I was worried I was gonna get counseling
5:07
because of some of the stuff subjects and things
5:09
we talk about on this podcast. Oh,
5:11
right. Which is quite unnerving. And
5:13
I did say, and that quote, I
5:16
think we'll go as far as
5:17
iglooing. I don't think we'll cut.
5:19
I hope there's nowhere further to do. No. I don't think
5:21
there is. I don't think there is. And I say, like, you
5:23
don't hear what gets cut out of the episodes. We would
5:25
have been canceled years ago. We didn't
5:27
cut and edit this episodes. don't see
5:29
we get into this really that much. We
5:31
did it the
5:31
start. We did it this year bizarrely. Now
5:34
look at us. Anyway,
5:37
let's do a toast. I'd like to toast Rachel
5:39
on TikTok who commented on our referee.
5:41
What are you doing post? Which is a video
5:43
from twenty nineteen when you took me up the turf
5:46
maw. And she
5:48
said that Wendy, can I borrow your potato
5:50
peeler? Needs to be a burnley chant.
5:53
So can you make that happen?
5:57
Wait. No. One
6:00
day. Cut out burps. Take a peeler.
6:02
One
6:03
day. Cut out burps are welcome.
6:05
Right. That's
6:06
why I did it. A copy of it. Rachel.

7:38
that came after that. When I asked

8:14
currently going through laser therapy because
8:16
William's been telling me your face looks a lot bad.
8:19
Is it work for you? Wow.
8:29
Your face looks a lot better since you've gotten because
8:31
William used to William looked like that
8:33

8:34
Dundee. What was he called? Dundee.
8:36
What was it? Dundee. I
8:38
know who you mean.
8:39
Yeah. And you Yeah. I would have a lot of man leads
8:41
because I'm full a sole strain. I would have quite a
8:43
lot of manly stubble. I would shave at nine
8:45
o'clock in the morning, for example, and by ten o'clock,
8:48
there was stubble. Wow. And I'll
8:50
be honest, I'm gonna call it out now. I
8:52
was teaching at a very well known private
8:54
school many years ago. I won't say which
8:56
one begins with r. And I
8:59
was doing a class and at three o'clock, one of the sort
9:01
of fifteen year old weeks probably now in
9:03
his twenty five, twenty six. Put his hand, if you're
9:05
listening to this, you've cost me a lot of money.
9:07
Put his hand up and went, if
9:10
you're talking about etiquette, you're not thinking it would have
9:12
nice if you'd shaved this morning. And
9:15
of course, I had shaved that
9:16
morning.
9:16
Oh my god. not really got any idea.
9:18
I actually cannot tell you how
9:20
I'm sort of making sunlight about it, but
9:22
it really affected me to point where I have then
9:24
invested in laser hair surgery
9:27
on my chin and
9:28
stubble. Area so
9:30
that that doesn't happen again. I also find
9:32
shaving a bit of a boar. I hate I hate I hate
9:35
I hate I hate hate I hate last
9:37
night and thirty razzy when I was had to finish
9:39
it off this morning. As I've shaven.
9:42

9:48

10:47
funny. She's like, oh, you guys

10:51

10:54

11:12
Oh, it's hardly a
11:13
problem now. I mean, I'm just having sort of must have been
11:15
agony on your face.
11:16
Oh, yeah. To begin with. But it's it's I

11:38
Anyway, can we first start a new feature
11:40

12:00
he's not hard with that. Sure. Yes.
12:05
But every relationship you have to work hard
12:07

12:09
through a lot of sort of change and there was move things about,
12:12

12:19
anywhere. And laboratories. You and toilets.
12:21
He needs to stop hanging around and I've told you this.
12:25
Yes. So it works off about him.
12:26
Anyway, I finished buying the Irish breakfast
12:29

12:31

12:45

12:47

nice way of saying Theres where are the men's
13:27
loot? Did you
13:27
write a letter to Harrods? Because changed the toilets
13:30
as well. Let me just put this into perspective.
13:32
This man here is thirty three years old and
13:34
actually wrote letter to Harrods because they'd
13:36
changed a sign on the title. So something Well,
13:39
it was an
13:40
email. And they still haven't in the hair
13:42
and beauty department, they still haven't corrected it.
13:44
I wish I had as much time when my answers you.
13:47
I really do. Anyway Any
13:49
more pillar to the
13:50
week? Well, no. But I do I'd like to apologize
13:52
to Alex, our video editor. Who
13:54
came a few months ago when we talked about afternoon
13:57
tea. Alex Podcast. Sorry to interrupt.
13:59
Alex, our video editor who keeps sending me pictures
14:01
of wild snakes videos of wild
14:03
snakes in Australia on
14:04
Instagram. Cheers Alex. Alex
14:07
don't send you snake on Instagram. Yeah. Stop
14:09
sending me pictures of these snakes. Something in this was on
14:11
hike in Australia, but just made me think of you just
14:14
this big snake went past you. Yeah.
14:16
Disgusting. Coming
14:20
through. Today night. I've got
14:22
depression on this snake. Today night, I'm just
14:24
gonna slip her through here. Oh. Little
14:27
camp snakes.
14:30
Diego. Anyway, excellent
14:32
for options. Or slap me on the barbie. Come
14:36
on. Alex
14:38
went for afternoon tea in Manchester
14:40
at a at an night hotel, and I have
14:42
previously said that at good afternoon
14:45
teas in London, they will
14:47
everything is replenishable. So if you finish your
14:49
plate of sandwiches and you take a lot more sandwiches,
14:51
it comes as included in the price. Well,
14:54
I need your caveat, my advice, because it turns out
14:56
not in Manchester, but because
14:58
Alex asked for several more plates of sandwiches thinking,
15:00
fantastic. They're free and then got presented
15:02
with the bill. For additional
15:06
percentage. Because he was
15:08
following my advice. So I I
15:10
owe Alex some standards.
15:11
Can I just say in my favorite
15:13
city? I love Manchester.
15:15
Yeah. But that's it's getting I I think
15:17
Manchester is getting ridiculous now.
15:19
It's the same price as a pint in Central
15:21
Manchester. As in London. It never used to
15:23
be like I mean, Manchester is always a bit dealing with them
15:25
like, Preston and burning surrounded areas.
15:28
Apparently, in Manchester now, in Central Manchester,
15:30
it's just pretty much same as wanting London,
15:33
really. And I don't think like rent and everything.
15:36
Just yeah. It's my favorite city.
15:38
I always wanna move back there. Bye.
15:40
I'm sorry. It just ran over. That doesn't surprise
15:43
me that they're charging people for Well,
15:45
the giant in London. So that instance,
15:47
London's got got one up on Manchester. But, yes,
15:49
Manchester is a lovely city. I I do
15:50
agree. And any any more for anymore?
15:53
I think I'm I'm
15:55
I'm done there. Are you?
15:57
Yeah. What was it
15:59
gonna win? Yeah. Yeah. I think I'm done.
16:02
Shall we go to Williams Eticket what the bloody
16:04
hell? It's
16:04
just getting my ticket technology of the week.
16:06
Oh, it's on a piece of paper I thought you'd do it off like
16:08
that. Excuse me. You got a whole book
16:11
A joke. Yes. I'm not
16:13
comedian. I'm trying to be a little bit
16:15
expert.
16:18
It's the it's I'm sorry. It's the brownies.
16:20
If they just have the all back in week, they
16:22
look for ten brownies. We'll
16:23
see if we can get some for the live show. No.
16:25
Yes, please. More on Earth in a minute. It's just
16:27
a peanut butter on it. Right. Sorry. That was
16:30
really arsey. I do love you. I love you to
16:32
bitch. I love you to bitch.
16:33
It's time for Metacolor bump.
16:37
Oh, the day of the week. Jingle. It's
16:39
William. William, me etiquette, speak
16:42
his knowledge. Knowledge is quite
16:44
unique. You'll give your manners, status,
16:46
subtle tweak. It's time for williams
16:48
at ticket emeticetic terminology of
16:50
the
16:51
week. And
16:51
this week, we're going to talk about the origins of the
16:53
expression. Spend a penny. Oh,
16:55
well, I can tell you that. Wonderful. Alright then.
16:57
Used to cost a penny to go to public lavatories.
17:00
Well, that that's a large part of it, but we're
17:02
we're going. There's
17:05
a bit God. Everyone
17:08
knows that. There's a bit more to it.
17:10
Oh, alright.
17:10
Well, we'll find out what spend the time he means.
17:13
That's not being a knob today,
17:15
Anna. Because I would just just
17:17
if if everyone could leave what they think of Jordan's
17:19
performance name and reviews of that old boy
17:21
characters, you Yeah. If you think Jordan's being a bit
17:23
r c, please write in the review. No,
17:26
don't. I don't mean to be As long as you put fines
17:28
down. Okay. Right. We'll find out what
17:30
Rameset's technology means after this break.
17:38
Okay. Gene Davis. Thanks for sticking with us. It's
17:40
now tied to find out the meaning of this
17:42
week's etiquette analogy with William
17:44
Manson.
17:45
Well, so why why I have chosen particularly to
17:47
do the spend of anything is because actually
17:49
in research, Theres. What we found
17:52
was that before public laboratories has
17:54
sort of made available and actually when do
17:56
you think public lose became a
17:57
thing? Absolutely.
17:59
When did you become obsessed with him?
18:01
In eighteen fifty one. Okay. That's
18:03
just before seven o'clock. Well, people have
18:05
needed to wear since Yes.
18:09
Since Theres
18:10
like, since we were private. Okay.
18:14
Yeah. Since humans walked walked away.
18:17
Yes. But at places like Fersai during
18:19
the quarter through the fourteenth, fifteenth, and sixteenth,
18:21
they just used to go in the corridors.
18:24
Public lavatories were not a thing. Yep.
18:26
This is what you just out the wall.
18:28
Oh, you know, book it. Or just if you were a lady in
18:30
a dress, you just in fact, there are there are
18:32
records of aristocrats, and of course, sadly,
18:35
they had lots of staff who were then
18:37
expected to clear it up. So it's pretty
18:39
No. You see, this is
18:41
why I thought I'd do this one because it's interesting.
18:43
It's not just spend a penny.
18:44
Imagine being so arrogant to just have
18:46
a pissing on her. It's disgusting. Yeah.
18:50
I used to at at grandmother's
18:52
house. Well, scared to go Theres and lounge.
18:54
She slept with me in the
18:55
backyard. Right.
18:57
What's that outside? Did
18:58
anyone else She's
18:59
like, how old were you? Twenty two. No.
19:01
Did anyone else? She's scared to go upstairs on
19:03
their own. So my grandma,
19:05
like, I'm not going up downstairs. Bless her. She's like,
19:07
a couple of because she went she'd open back up back
19:10
the yard for me. Yeah.
19:12
She was like was a dog, and I've been great.
19:14
And -- Right. -- don't drag
19:16
anyway. Anyway, back to the history. So as I say,
19:18
the first lose with a great exhibition in
19:20
Hyde Park in eighteen fifty one, but and this
19:22
is where we go all a
19:22
bit. A friend of that kind of
19:25
There are are there are leverages in
19:28
Hyde Park. Guess. This is what we all go bit feminist
19:30
because those
19:31
laws, however, were only
19:33
four men.
19:35
That's a bit odd. There was no provision for later. Women
19:37
had to wait until the eighteen Sexted, so
19:39
ten years later. Never way. Yeah. In in
19:42
a in a private in a public laboratory. It
19:45
was the first ABC tea room that
19:47
had a new innovation, which was aloof for ladies. And
19:49
obviously, yes, you would all, whether you were a man or woman,
19:51
you would spend a penny, which is nothing to us
19:53
now, but was quite a lot of money back then
19:55
in order to go to the
19:57
loop. And the and a penny was there to to designed
19:59
to keep out the riffraff. So it was it's not a lot
20:01
to us now, but it was a
20:02
lot. But then so
20:04
But you'd say I've gotta go spend a penny. Yeah. And
20:06
it was department stores like, Harrods, Selfridges,
20:08
etcetera. That brought in laboratories
20:11
for for ladies and then sort of it became fairly
20:13
common practice to have loo lose for all
20:15
genders.
20:16
Oh, okay.
20:17
So there we go. That's the origin to spend a penny
20:19
and lavatories.
20:20
Wow. That's interesting. You
20:23
see, we this is the journey we go on every
20:25
time by doing it at a technology. You slide
20:28
it off at the
20:28
start?
20:29
Slag it off.
20:30
Yes. You oh, we're all more, that picture,
20:32
and more at Roman times.
20:34
And Theres, make me sound like
20:36
Sean Daege.
20:37
Lovely, Sean. And then we get
20:39
onto Well,
20:40
it's interesting. Thank you. Why
20:43
do we say number two? That
20:45
I that I don't know. Oh,
20:47
was it? Because it needed two flushes, I think, because
20:49
one -- Oh, no. -- number one was you needed
20:51
to pull the chain once. Number two is think you had to
20:53
pull
20:54
two. think I'm going to research that
20:55
now. Oh, okay. But that's an
20:56
educated guess. Yeah.
20:58
That's what we call it. Crap as well, don't
21:00
we? Because it was
21:01
invented by Thomas Capper. I'm gonna use a Capper.
21:03
Yep. Yeah. Yeah. Urban kit.
21:05
No. He was just she was a singer. Yeah. It's got your
21:07
violin. Oh, was it? Sorry for that. Rights.
21:10
Drop the kids off. Okay.
21:13
Yeah. It's a lot of slang for
21:15
touring. Sure. That's all the dictionary. Mhmm.
21:17
Lovely. Well, look last week, Gene Davis, we told
21:19
you all about our exciting fifth birthday
21:22
which is now thank you, which is now only
21:24
a week away if you're listening to this in
21:26
real time. We will be
21:28
live streaming a full episode next
21:30
week and we'll be revealing the top
21:32
five moments as voted
21:35
for you in the weekend
21:36
release. So you can join us for the livestream
21:38
event of the year, apparently, on TikTok
21:41

21:44
and YouTube, you set your alarms,
21:46
put a reminder in for Monday, the twentieth
21:48
of March at seven thirty
21:49
PM, UK time. You
21:52
don't want to miss it. Have we checked, like, there's nothing
21:54
big out in an inquiry that week? Or
21:56
there's a big like, if it's like a happy
21:58
valley
21:58
finale. Well, no. think happy that is off.
22:00
Yeah. But is there a big yes.
22:03
What are the one on the show doing on the twentieth of March
22:05
at seven o'clock? I've got
22:06
a funny feeling that we might be playing Sydney at
22:08
eight o'clock that day. I have a funny feeling you
22:10
won't be watching it. This
22:14
is this is how most of our arguments
22:16
start to do this. But
22:19
look, we're we're going to hell because, obviously, a
22:21
big thing of your life and the
22:23
G and D is is a big
22:25
red bar is a
22:29
is a picky t. Oh,
22:31
we do it picky t.
22:32
Yes. So I thought we could have a picky t g. And dealers
22:34
could have a picky t yesterday, fish and watch. That's
22:36
a great idea. So next Monday, we're going live.
22:38
Make sure you get yourself a picky tea. And I'll
22:40
make it we'll do a picky tea as well, shall we. And
22:42
hopefully, we'll have some brownies. Me
22:46
thirty three year old and throwing a paddy
22:48
over
22:48
brownies.
22:49
Yeah. Just
22:49
looking forward to more wheat, William. Oh,
22:51
I'm sorry. It's fine.
22:54
Should we go into the business
22:55
problems? Yes, please. This is from Saskia
22:58
from the whittle. Dear William and
23:00
Jordan. Never normally see count advice. However,
23:02
I feel like an outsider's perspective might
23:04
be useful on this. I've recently moved
23:06
to Oxford to start a new teaching post.
23:09
My partner of two years was working in Spain
23:11
and we were trying long distance. Despite
23:13
feeling the relationship had come to a natural
23:15
end, he decided to uproot himself and
23:18
move to ox with me. I wasn't thrilled
23:20
at this as I felt it was a lot of pressure.
23:22
However, he decided to move anyway. He
23:24
did not have accommodation organized, so
23:27
ended up staying with me for two weeks until he
23:29
found somewhere to live. During this day,
23:31
I found one of my expensive clay
23:33
face masks, smudged all over
23:35
a bath towel, I thought it odd as he's
23:37
not often one to practice self care,
23:39
holding the towel and inspecting it
23:41
further. I decided to
23:44
take a sniff, only to find out it was human
23:46
feces. Jesus Christ.
23:49
Is this now I'm
23:52
Theres much aware of Spanish
23:53
culture. I don't no. They don't use towels
23:55
to wipe them out. No. The
23:57
man had pooed on my towel and then hung it
23:59
back up as if exerting his dominance.
24:02
Upon confrontation, he denied it, despite
24:05
me holding a skid stained bath rack
24:07
clutched in my angry fist. The man
24:09
had no shame, any fury. When I
24:11
throw it into the laundry basket and went to
24:13
do a wash, he grew furious and said
24:15
that he could wait until morning. I didn't
24:17
have a wink that night. I think he
24:19
has wink that night knowing there were
24:21
human faces touching my various other
24:24
delicate garments waiting to be washed.
24:26
Every time I now see him, I can't stop thinking
24:28
about it, and I feel it has highlighted various
24:30
other hygiene issues that he may have. I
24:32
get aside from leading to vent, my question is
24:34
this. Is it over when you can't be intimate
24:36
with someone because they've shit on your bath
24:38
towel, Saskia from the world? Right. In
24:40
in his defense. No. There's no defense.
24:43
Listen. Listen. Listen. They said There's no
24:45
reference. She's made it out.
24:47
Like, he he's he's wiped
24:49
his ass out of towel, and I think
24:52
all he's done is left little skidmar after
24:54
dragging himself. And that's happened to
24:56
me before. I had me and me
24:58
and Ryan had our mate around to stay over,
25:00
and we give him a towel. And he said, come
25:02
look one. That's got a skid mark on it, and my dad
25:04
had used it before him. So that does
25:06
happen. Little little skitties do happen
25:09
on towels. Like, if you've,
25:11
you know, that But she'd
25:13
made it sound Saski, tell me if I'm wrong
25:15
here, but she made it sound like he'd literally wiped
25:18
his ass a little skid stain. Blinking
25:20
wash.
25:22
No. It don't it don't sound are you telling
25:24
me Mike he's never left little skippy on a towel?
25:26
No.
25:29
It happens, Ben? No.
25:31
I don't really need to know this about Ben.
25:33
No. I don't I'm not say I'm not saying I've ever done
25:35
it, but you just put your wash Saskia
25:38
dump him. No. If he's right.
25:41
Saskia, if he said it, it
25:43
I'm putting it
25:44
bluntly. If he's out of shit and then you you
25:46
towel to us. They also don't like how he reacted.
25:48
Even if you take or if even if you excuse
25:51
the accidental book. Just
25:53
got out of a shower. I think
25:55
it sounds like more than Dry
25:56
himself. Don't have floss. I've got a bit of shit on towel. They
25:58
should put it in wash basket. No. You
26:00
were having second downs before he even moved over
26:02
to the scantry. Get rid of him.
26:04
Come
26:04
on. Come on Saskia. Your
26:07
only young ones. Going through
26:09
divorce procedures, I've risk getting I don't think
26:11
they're divorced. My mom would have got to be separated twenty
26:13
times over by now if that was
26:14
them. Good. This is from Duncan.
26:17
Dear William and Jordan,
26:18
I'm writing that an incident that happened. Watch
26:20
change, Betty, and he did it. I'm
26:23
just not convinced you're parents. I'm
26:25
not gonna love this.
26:26
I should love it. Then, anyway,
26:30
Jim's up bad in the room. Can
26:33
I go? Yeah. Dear William
26:35
and Jordan, I'm writing in about an incident
26:37
that happened to wound back that still haunts me to
26:39
this day. I have regular blood tests
26:41
for health reasons and although I'm a big fan of having
26:43
a prick in my hand most of the time, I'm
26:45
not that keen on needles. My
26:48
MO is usually to look away when
26:50
the needle goes in and then once I get
26:52
told to unclench my hand, I look back
26:54
towards the phlebotomist. On this
26:56
particular occasion, the phlebotomist was a
26:58
man and we seemed to be getting on quite well.
27:00
I did my easy wall trick of looking away as the
27:02
needle went in and as it instructed I
27:05
unclench my hand. Bearing in mind,
27:07
I was still looking away at this point. Imagine
27:09
my surprise when unbeknownst
27:12
to me, the phlebotomist had taken a step
27:14
forward, and my hand opened to encounter
27:16
not empty
27:17
air, but what felt like an unexpected
27:19
pair of Plums. She
27:23
comes with me. Very well, it's
27:25
from Dunkin'. I can tell
27:27
you I
27:30
can tell you from bitter experience that try to
27:32
move your hand away from someone's testicles
27:34
while they have a needle jammed in your forearm
27:36
is quite
27:37
tricky. But
27:39
it's not as tricky as trying to take a blood sample
27:41
from someone who is now blushing so hard
27:43
that every drop of blood in their body is now in their
27:45
face. I was mortified, but he was
27:48
very kind about it. Sorry,
27:50
bloody well should be. Is there a polite
27:52
or tactful way to extract yourself from such
27:54
a situation or is your only option
27:56
to limit the damage and try to avoid, ending
27:58
up on some kind of register. Keep up
28:00
the good work, all the best, Duncan, Duncan,
28:03
that that is him not
28:04
you. Why you? Don't blame
28:05
yourselves. I think he's gone to grab his hand.
28:08
And he's gone to his oh, I've I know.
28:11
The floorboard dressers. There's a royal
28:13
day. I'm not grabbing his buttocks.
28:15
No chance. Draw the line Theres, and
28:17
he's not grabbing
28:18
mine. Right. So the flip blub blub
28:20
blub blub blub blub blub blub
28:21
blub blub blub blub blub blub blub blub blub blub blub blub
28:22
blub blub blub blub blub blub blub
28:24
blub blub blub blub blub blub. He's
28:27
gone like 00I
28:29
see. Oh, I thought the footballist has.
28:31
Oh, yeah. Like, almost. Love
28:32
it. Love it. Love it. In the album, Ben's big.
28:35
From bottom
28:35
left. Anyway, don't get my advice here.
28:38
It's simple. Right? Oh, I see.
28:41
Now I see. I know many nurses
28:43
couple of doctors and they've all got stories
28:46
and they love sharing stories that things
28:48
they find up people's asses and stuff like
28:50
that. So it'll just be one of those stories
28:52
that he tells for years to come and everyone
28:54
I love it.
28:55
Why wasn't he just whip him out while Duncan was
28:57
looking the other way? No. He wasn't whipping him out.
28:59
Oh, no. Find bloody hell. Your
29:01
fantasies. Oh.
29:03
And he's scrubbed square there. He's bulks.
29:05
Oh. He'd love that with little boopa
29:07
logo over his breast pocket. Yes.
29:15
Are you with boomer? No. I'm not actually. I
29:17
have no private medical insurance. Good unless
29:19
I go abroad.
29:20
Because we've got the NHS. It's fantastic.
29:22
Exactly. Wonderful. This one
29:24
is from cat.
29:28
Is it from this camp? Do
29:31
one of them. Oh, no. That's a bit.
29:33
No. That's a bit of a ticker Tom. Margaret statue.
29:36
William. There's not a lot
29:38
of nuance.
29:40
And Jordan and
29:43
EPB, the ladies, not for
29:45
turning. Hello, friends. I was
29:47
visiting my parents for couple of days
29:49
when which can be frustrating at times.
29:51
Now I'm more about women keeping themselves frustrated
29:53
free if you get what I mean. There's nothing
29:56
wrong with packing in a little BOSP
29:59
battery operated side
30:01
piece. Okay.
30:03
Go
30:03
ahead and see your mother.
30:04
Toy is all charged up. What is it in the water yesterday?
30:07
Couldn't you couldn't you wait until the year?
30:09
Toy is all charged up. I was at my parents and
30:11
on night I was ready to climb out of my skin.
30:14
My dad had gone to bed and I told my mom
30:16
I was going to go to bed too. But when I got into
30:18
bed, I found myself not tired enough. And
30:20
thought this would be a good opportunity to release the
30:23
stress. Now, I'm a twenty first century
30:25
woman and I like myself a little spot of
30:27
porn, but the video alone doesn't do
30:29
it. It has to have the sound
30:31
on as well. So
30:32
I put away this is going. So I put my hair
30:34
friend on and started pursuing the
30:36
different categories. Online shopping
30:38
that bitch until I found the one
30:40
that helped the inspiration along. Okay.
30:43
By this time, I'd gotten off the bed
30:45
and was sitting on the floor. Now I know
30:47
this is weird, but my parents had installed
30:50
the softest carpest ever and I have ADHD.
30:53
We do weird stuff. Mhmm. There
30:56
I was on the floor getting really into it,
30:58
loud moaning in my ears and trying to be as
31:00
quiet as I could. The combination was
31:02
working. Let's just say the train was coming into
31:04
the station. Luckily, in the throes of
31:06
enjoyment, my headphones had slipped off slightly,
31:08
and I heard my mom approach my room.
31:11
Next thing, she bursts into the room, I throw
31:13
my headphones off and sit upright, trying to get
31:15
the vibrator to shut off and the loud moaning
31:17
on the headphones to stop. The vibrator
31:19
doesn't want to stop vibrating and suddenly this quiet
31:21
and greet vibrator is not so quiet and
31:24
not so discreet, but the moaning over the headphones
31:26
is even louder. Luckily, she was talking
31:28
to me about something I left
31:30
and was bringing it to me so I finally managed
31:32
to shut off the horn and get the vibrator
31:35
off. You don't want to come around the
31:37
bed, you don't want to see this. I yell at her.
31:39
She's around the bed and there I am stuck on
31:41
the floor with the vibrator inside
31:43
me waiting and wishing for the world to swallow
31:45
me whole. She got a right turned around
31:47
left, what she was bringing on the bed and said,
31:50
you do weird shit. She leaves the
31:52
room and I'm dying of embarrassment and needless
31:54
to say the train died as it was about to reach
31:56
the station. Could I have avoided this
31:58
very embarrassing ordeal? Maybe I should have
32:00
left my BSB0SP at
32:02
home. Lots of love from cat. And the
32:04
answer to your question is, yes, you should. That's
32:06
dramatic. That's absolutely dramatic.
32:10
She was speaking to a mommiles, the vibrate,
32:12
or still inside her. It's disgusting.
32:15
I will be
32:15
done. Just
32:18
give us something.
32:21
You've got a very powerful one. Let's do it that
32:23
way. Thanks fatigue. I'll see you
32:25
at the morning. Jesus Christ.
32:29
Oh my gosh. Yes.
32:31
The moral story is don't detect any sex
32:33
ties when you got to a visit at mom and
32:35
dad. You know, you could've just yeah.
32:38
Look, there's the time in place. I
32:40
don't think doing stuff at your parents. I think
32:42
you you were asking for trouble
32:43
cat. You've only got yourself to blame. Hopefully, you
32:45
ever talk about it again. Your own
32:48
fault. Lesson
32:48
learned. Jesus. Okay. Oh.
32:51
Well, it's not her fault, but
32:54
equally, you put your head red light. And
32:56
is there a lock on the door? Could you have locked
32:58
the door? Could you have put a chair
33:00
against the door? Come on. All
33:02
sorts of other things. And we did that one? This
33:05
is from Harry. Do William drawn
33:07
an EPB. I've recently returned
33:09
from living in Sweden. I
33:15
can't remember the Swedish fellow. Hello?
33:19
With my partner of five years, We
33:21
are from New label. Uh-huh.
33:25
Uh-huh. Oh, we need to go and see that. We need
33:27
to get tickets for AbbaVoyage. AbbaVoyage.
33:29
Yes. Two hundred quid a
33:31
ticket. They're not even there. What? Well,
33:33
hundred and twenty quid it's not better.
33:35
Not for hologram. That's what I'm hearing. They're not even
33:37
there. No. Hello, London. Can
33:40
now Soon did you quit it? Oh, no. then you quit
33:42
a ticket. You're not even here? Hang on.
33:44
When you die and we're still toric. No. When I
33:46
die, I'm throwing
33:47
up in my heart like I'm on it. Listen, you might not
33:49
even turn up on the Theres. It's actually good investment.
33:52
What's that
33:52
mean? Could be on holiday. Let
33:55
it go. We are from the UK
33:57
but moved to Sweden for a little every year
33:59
for work. Yeah. We came back last
34:01
month and we have been living with my partner's mother,
34:03
Ruth, and stepfather Mike. We have
34:05
a deposit ready and are looking to buy a place of
34:07
our own as soon as possible. Oh, good luck. I
34:10
get on well with both of our hosts and they have been
34:12
nothing but kind and accommodating. However,
34:15
on Friday morning, something happened that I've not
34:17
been able to stop thinking about. My partner's
34:20
temp father starts work early in the morning
34:22
and is up and about at around the same time
34:24
as me. I woke up that morning and went into
34:26
the kitchen to make a coffee. Mike was seemingly
34:29
up, but he wasn't in the kitchen. As I entered
34:31
the kitchen, I heard something playing on the Alexa
34:33
that sits on the breakfast bar. It was quite
34:35
faint, so I turned it up and realized it was the sound
34:38
of a woman enthusiastically
34:40
getting bit roasted
34:43
by two men. Jesus. What is going
34:45
on this week? One of whom sounded a bit
34:47
like hot
34:47
Hogan. There's a lot of detail
34:48
in this. Any any dead. No.
34:51
With hindsight, what I should have done
34:53
was at this point made a u-turn and him
34:56
straight back
34:56
upstairs.
34:56
Yes. Pretend I had nothing. Yes, absolutely.
34:59
But in my panic, I quite loudly said
35:02
Alexa stop. The soundtrack
35:04
intermediately and then was faintly audible through
35:06
the door of the downstairs Lou. It
35:08
then quickly stopped and there was a deathly
35:10
silence that probably lasted of ten seconds,
35:13
but it felt like an eternity. It was at this
35:15
point that I went upstairs to hide in the bathroom
35:17
until Mike left for work. Clearly,
35:19
I had interrupted Mike having an eye time in
35:21
the downstairs Lou before work while
35:24
Ruth was in bed. No problem with
35:26
that per se, we all have needs. Now,
35:28
though, he will know that I know what he was up to.
35:30
This makes me cringe so hard. I feel like I'm going
35:32
to turn him inside out. He's been acting completely
35:34
normal as if nothing has happened and so vyme.
35:37
That's why I haven't told a soul what he'd
35:39
written into us. Not even my partner.
35:41
I don't even know if I should. Should I
35:43
bring it up discreetly and say his secret is
35:45
safe? Should I say nothing to anyone take
35:48
this to my grave? Should I cut all contact with
35:50
them and leave the country for a motile and
35:52
never return? Please help from Harry.
35:54
Never happened It never erase
35:56
it from your memory. I mean, I love the fact
35:58
that you've said you've told nobody and and,
36:00
you know, you're trying to keep the secret safe. You said
36:02
the mother's name is Ruth, the stepfather's called
36:04
Mike, and you're called Harry. Have
36:07
just lived in Sweden for a year. So, I mean, it's quite
36:09
I mean, if there's anyone listening that can work that one
36:11
out. Theres, after the five,
36:14
raise it from your line. 54321
36:20
never happened. Yeah. I I do
36:22
agree you had to pretend it didn't happen. I
36:24
carry on, it's awful.
36:26
As
36:26
is awful.
36:27
What is we have what is we are? We've got
36:29
some horny, g and d as well. Can for
36:31
the livestream, can we just just do nice, you know, just
36:33
the napkin girl on the left or the right? Which
36:35
which is my Roofing the old saying in it, the
36:37
difference between an egg and a wink. You
36:40
can't beat her when you can beat her neck.
36:42
Remove the gels on
36:43
it. You can beat her neck. Alright.
36:47
Yes. Yeah.
36:49
With a knife if you want to make an omelette
36:51
because that you It's a Dealyus
36:53
mythic. Oh, Dealyus. Yeah.
36:56
Well, I
36:56
beat the eggs with a knife because then it doesn't blend
36:58
the egg quite so much, which is what produces a fluffy
37:01
egg. Read Didilla and you all know
37:02
them. Oh,
37:03
well, there we go. Next week, we'll do nice
37:05
letters. And
37:06
now we'll try and make an egg with an knife next
37:08
time. Yes. So
37:10
what's just a table knife? You don't just use a knife.
37:12
Yeah. What if you haven't a white four colored knife?
37:14
Neither. And
37:16
next week, I'll tell you a good use for the rolling pin.
37:19
Now, should we talk about what's coming up on the weekend
37:21
release? Roll
37:22
them, Ted. Crush Theres
37:24
live. What's coming up on the weekend release?
37:27
We've been sending some more artwork. Oh,
37:29
lovely. So you'll be able to hear
37:32
how that sounds looks sounds.
37:36
Better work on an audio based podcast. And
37:38
we'll discuss if the podcast requires
37:40
an upgrade to them. Mhmm. Which we think
37:43
it definitely
37:43
means. Don't be letting you in the kids listen
37:45
It's a lower age limit as well. Yeah.
37:47
Anyway, okay. Listen up a Tuesday and
37:49
Friday. We're back on Friday with our bonus. You
37:51
can watch us on YouTube every weekend, and
37:54
