Hello, I'm Robbie Knox, the brand new
0:31
host and landlord of The Moon Underwater,
0:33
a podcast where we invite guests to create
0:35
their dream pub. I'm here with Dan Trelfer
0:38
to tell you why The Moon Underwater is the perfect
0:41
pub podcast. We give guests the
0:43
chance to create their
0:44
ultimate ale house. Guests get to share
0:46
some of the best pub stories they've collected
0:49
over the years. We all get absolutely
0:52
hammered while we do it. I think
0:54
that might just be you, Dan. Just search
0:56
for The Moon Underwater wherever you get your
0:58
podcasts.
1:07
Hello and welcome to our
1:09
weekend release. This is the bonus podcast episode
1:11
from Help I Sex My Boss, where we can see
1:13
how much extra content we can squeeze
1:15
into your week. It's random things that have been
1:17
sent in, extra bits from our week, and how our
1:19
advice went down with you, our G and Divas.
1:22
You went for a massage yesterday. I did,
1:24
yes. After all that book signing, I needed
1:27
some tension release. Now, I am
1:30
not a massage-y person. Some people either love
1:32
them, others hate them. I detest
1:34
massages. Never really had one in
1:36
my life. I think I had
1:37
one and hated it, but I felt
1:39
I needed one. Apparently, I've got a very knotty
1:41
back. Oh, it's the stress.
1:44
Yes. It's all the executive tension that
1:46
I carry in me. Well, anyway, I mean, I had it done.
1:48
I mean, I hated absolutely every second of it, but
1:51
my back did feel better at the end. I had
1:53
one recently, and I've
1:55
only ever had, I think this would be my second
1:58
or third.
1:59
I highly recommend it, but I like a firm
2:02
massage. It's a deep tissue. Yeah, so
2:05
at one point she had her elbow dug in. She's
2:07
like digging her elbow in, and it's great. And
2:09
you're like, hmm, I fell asleep as well as snoring
2:11
at one point. And then at the end of it. How could
2:13
you fall asleep? At the end of it, it was when I was in
2:15
Devon a couple of weeks ago. Oh, okay. At
2:18
the end of it, and they're like playing oil music, and
2:21
she had this steam coming out at the end of it.
2:24
How was that? Steam? It's like this
2:26
little mist thing, just to set the end
2:28
in. At the end of it, it was really
2:30
nice. She went, all right, my love.
2:33
Now we're done. I'm just gonna pop out the room,
2:36
and
2:36
I'll be back in a minute. And I was like, oh, she was great.
2:39
Nice, lovely. How long was yours?
2:42
An hour. Oh, no, you had 30 minutes. It
2:44
was meant to be an hour and a half, but I
2:46
was like, I'll pop it in. You finished early. Yeah, story
2:48
of my life. So for an hour, it'd be fine. Yeah,
2:51
good. Well, obviously this is our Friday
2:54
bonus, but when we come back next week
2:56
on our Tuesday, we've never
2:58
done this before. Slightly dreading
3:00
it, but it's gonna be fine. We're going to
3:02
do a Halloween themed episode. Oh.
3:07
Okay. I can't stand Halloween.
3:09
I think I'd rather have a four hour massage than
3:11
do about one minute of Halloween, but... We've
3:14
done Halloween episodes before, I'm sure. Not
3:16
where we've dressed up, Jordan. But we are
3:18
dressing up in a
3:21
very familiar, but a very different
3:23
way. Okay. Okay? Right.
3:26
So we'll see how that goes out. I think
3:28
I've got the easier ride, as it were.
3:30
Oh. I think you've got it harder
3:33
than me. Oh, I'm intrigued. But we'll find
3:35
out on Tuesday. So any little kids now, can you do a
3:37
Halloween? You won't give them any sweets. No, tase
3:39
them. You can't tase the children
3:42
who've talked about this. Well,
3:44
don't knock on my door. Did you never go trick or treat when
3:46
you were my dad on Halloween? No, because we lived in the country. There was nobody
3:48
around us. Yeah, but it could've took you to a local
3:50
estate. No. No? No.
3:54
No, they didn't. I had something nephews
3:56
once around, but I made it class. I'm
3:58
sure it was. What's
4:01
the going race in Burnley? What do you give
4:03
the kids? Sweets, preferably
4:06
in a bar of... You can give them a pack of bar of bar of bowels, just
4:08
get loads of sweets in. OK. Yeah.
4:11
If they give you a digestive biscuit, just take the house.
4:14
Malzapan fruit? No. No. I
4:17
did get once a French fancy, and
4:19
I thought that was good. They were giving
4:21
out French fancies. Ooh, I'm suddenly in the mood
4:23
for a French fancy. Mm. Pink,
4:25
yellow or brown? Ooh,
4:28
I'm going to go for a yellow. Oh,
4:30
OK. I'll have the pink one. Yeah. What's the brown
4:32
one? Chocolate. Oh. What's
4:35
the pink one? Strawberry. What's the yellow one?
4:38
Lemon. I mean, you don't need to... Oh, no. I'll have
4:40
the lemon one. You don't need to be Alan Turing to crack that
4:42
code. No, I don't like lemon. I'll
4:44
go for the pink one. OK. Strawberry
4:47
or brown. Lovely. OK.
4:51
OK. Well, I think, Jordan, so exciting.
4:54
I really want a French sandy. French
4:56
fancy. It's
4:59
time for another Etiquette Explained. Whee!
5:02
Now, as you know from social media,
5:04
William has gone viral because of his
5:07
Etiquette Tip videos. So, on our bonus,
5:09
we like to pick one of the videos that William's posted, and
5:12
then we get him to elaborate a bit on it. This
5:15
week, we went with your iced coffee etiquette
5:17
video. Yeah. Very fitting at this time
5:19
of year. Yeah, you're probably not drinking iced coffee at this time of year anymore,
5:22
but when I posted it a couple of weeks ago,
5:24
it was probably just on the cusp. I
5:26
was very into iced coffee this summer. It's
5:28
good. It's very refreshing, isn't it? Yeah, I've never
5:30
had it before. Do you have it black or with milk? Without
5:32
milk. Yeah. Yeah. Oh,
5:35
I used to get them every day on the way into work. Did
5:37
you? Well, I hope you drunk them politely. OK. Now,
5:40
here is the audio of my tip. I think it's
5:42
up to seven million views. I've
5:44
got a low-performing one on social media.
5:47
Drinks with a straw like this
5:50
are bound to annoy your co-workers when
5:52
there are a few crops left. We
5:54
don't want to hear any of this. Awful.
5:59
Instead, this is where you...
5:59
I swear you'd make
6:03
this shit up as you go along.
6:13
Well there is an element of that, but that
6:15
is correct, just to get it. Look,
6:17
again, you work in an office, I don't really work
6:19
in an office, when I'm working not here, I'm
6:21
at my own desk. But it would be terribly irritating
6:24
to hit the door. Imagine
6:26
if everyone in the office was doing that. So you're saying take
6:28
the straw out. Have the straw to
6:31
begin with, when it is fun of
6:33
coffee, iced tea, whatever you're having. It
6:35
doesn't matter if it's not coffee or tea. But
6:37
then when it comes to those last few dregs,
6:41
down it, not use the straw. Yeah, but it's better
6:43
out the straw. That's
6:45
fine. What about a milkshake, because you can't really
6:48
slurp it, you've got to slurp the milkshake. Same
6:51
thing applies. Use the straw
6:53
for most of it, bring the boys to the yard,
6:56
take the straw out, down the rest
6:58
of it. I've not had a milkshake for years. I
7:01
used to get a milkshake at McDonald's, and then
7:03
when you find out how many... Strawberry, chocolate or lemon? Strawberry.
7:07
There's always strawberry. And when you find out how many calories
7:09
are in a milkshake... Oh, is it bad? It's
7:11
five million, nineteen, twenty. I mean, if you're
7:13
listening to this thing, it doesn't matter how old
7:16
you are, live your life, but yeah.
7:18
I think the milkshake's pretty much the same as the
7:20
burger, isn't it? Or
7:22
more.
7:23
Yeah. Looking bloody good. Do you
7:25
have any... obviously, when you go into work, it's
7:27
an office environment. Are there any sort of bad habits
7:30
that other people do that annoy you, whether
7:32
it's drinking from straws or not? I
7:34
don't know how people can work in open plan offices.
7:36
I'm very glad I don't have to work in one. Would that do your
7:39
editing? Absolutely. Do you want me to do
7:41
it? Stop talking to me. A lot of people say
7:43
now they get more work done when they're at home, because obviously in
7:45
the office you get stopped and stuff. Yeah, and people
7:47
chat and oh, they want to be
7:49
a friend. That's part of the office environment.
7:51
Well, it shouldn't be. It should be single offices
7:54
or maybe sharing two people. I'm just used
7:56
to it. What? In an actual room. Yeah.
8:00
Is it? They're all open. I've only ever
8:02
known an open plan office. I mean, I don't mind if you want
8:04
to have glass walls. That's fine. I think it's better for
8:07
all sorts of reasons to have visibility.
8:10
Do you? But I don't
8:12
want to hear what's going on over there. But that's
8:14
not part of office gossip. Like when Mikey
8:16
and I have to work from home together and we have separate desks
8:18
thankfully but not separate offices. Just
8:20
me as you know. Second bedroom. As
8:23
I'll study. Like if he starts talking to me
8:25
or puts music on, I can't hit the roof.
8:28
I remember an old job. She'd keep us up to
8:30
date on her... I think it
8:32
was her husband's... he had a boil
8:34
on his douchebag. What?
8:37
What? On his... the bit between
8:39
your arse and your balls. The
8:41
bit of his... Douche. Douche. What's
8:45
a douchebag? I have no idea. It's called
8:47
Kelly Osborne used to call it your douchebag. Anyway,
8:49
on his gooch. She used to keep us up to date on that.
8:52
Sometimes a lot of them. And there in
8:54
one little anecdote
8:57
is the reason why you should have glass offices. Okay. Anyway,
9:01
let's go on to the listeners' responses. This is from Hayley
9:03
from Cornwall. Another opportunity
9:05
for you to do your Southwest accent. You are.
9:08
Good afternoon boys. I have a question for William. Oh. Why
9:11
is a wake called a wake? As it's clear,
9:13
the person whose wake it is isn't going to wake
9:16
up Hayley and Cornwall. Excellent question. That's
9:18
excellent. I don't know if it's a drop in my head, but
9:21
I will do that for an eschatomology. I'll
9:23
research it. Oh, okay. Yeah. Thank
9:26
you. Yeah, we'll do that next week for next week's episode. Well, I don't
9:28
know when I'll do it. I'll put it in the system. I've
9:30
already got Earl Grey to do as well. Well, all
9:32
right. But I'll do it at some point. People
9:36
do 14 hour days digging
9:38
up roads and you're winding because you've got a googled
9:40
wire wake to call the weather. Come
9:43
on. Excuse me. Get
9:45
real. Some people are on the feet all day
9:48
working in shops and stuff and you're winding because you've
9:50
got a googled wire wake. He's going to cry. Excuse
9:53
me for your feature. All you do is read out bad jokes from
9:55
other people. Yes, but at least I come prepared.
10:00
I'm
10:02
going to punch you in the face. The scripts were
10:04
shared in the group chat last night. Oh!
10:09
The scripts were shared in the group chat last night.
10:13
I did actually because I changed it but William explained
10:15
Shas Jordan challenges or agrees. Oh
10:17
yeah, I ended that one this morning. This
10:22
is from Jean. Hi, William and Jordan. After
10:24
I heard William laughing at Jordan talking about poor
10:26
Frank the dog, I had to write in
10:28
with my inappropriate laughing moment. I
10:31
giggled away at my grandmother's funeral as the vicar
10:33
has a microphone on him during the hymns
10:35
and he was the worst thing ever. My
10:37
shoulders were bouncing up and down trying to contain
10:39
my giggles and a lady behind me placed her hand
10:42
on my shoulder and whispered, We all miss her
10:44
too. Thank
10:47
you, Jean. Yes, there is
10:49
something about funerals that are quite funny because
10:51
you're not meant to laugh. My cousin
10:53
got me some tissues. I was
10:55
crying at my grandma's funeral. That tissue
10:57
should pop out a pair of knickers and I was like, We
11:01
just laughed.
11:02
Yeah, and I think, yeah, I think, a
11:05
lot of people laughing is the tonic
11:08
that they need to cope with grief. And my cousin,
11:10
I'll never forget this, told me about the best jokes I've heard at my granddad's
11:13
funeral. Our poor. I
11:15
said to you about the jelly baby that went to the doctors and
11:17
an STI. Shagging all sorts.
11:22
You see, that's a joke
11:25
that would have worked nicely. The granddaddy's funeral
11:27
before it went in. I was about 12 as well. I
11:30
was getting daggers from
11:32
my family. I didn't laugh. No,
11:34
I cried. And this is from Andrew. Hi,
11:37
William, John and E.P.B. On a recent episode during
11:39
William's eticatomology about the word posh,
11:41
John brought up the history of why we hoses call
11:43
the English poms. While
11:46
the Prisoner of Mother England story is
11:48
a widely held belief, it, like the
11:50
Port Hount Starboard Home reason for the term posh,
11:53
is not supported by evidence. The more
11:55
likely source of the term is believed to
11:57
be that when new immigrants arrive from England,
13:23
powers
14:00
called fat bastard
14:02
right
14:06
have you thought never said it's
14:08
so funny even stink
14:12
would see that that stinks no
14:15
no okay are you have
14:17
you watched them recently are
14:19
you actually going to watch them back and go mmm I
14:21
think my level of humor has risen
14:24
up to the sophistication of Kevin and Stacy
14:26
I mean I mean stop pumping the laser right
14:29
start the car dr. evil the one heard
14:33
of dr. Eve and there's
14:39
a what was the body on it
14:42
spoke like that his skin used
14:44
to peel and used to pull his skin off and
14:46
eat it and go well shave that for later where's
14:48
your fosha
14:49
your fosha
14:51
well it sounds absolutely hilarious
14:53
really good probably I answer
14:55
it for a while so if it's really problematic GD it's probably
14:58
hugely problematic so you don't come out because
15:00
I've probably I've seen it for about 20 years right
15:03
well that gives me time to do I remember if you've
15:05
