Hi

0:02

everyone, welcome to this week's episode of No Such

0:05

Thing as a Fish. Andrew Hunter

0:07

Murray is away this week and so

0:09

in his place we have one of

0:11

the QI elves. It is

0:14

Lydia Mison. Now those

0:16

of you who listen to us occasionally

0:18

talk to Zoe Ball on Radio 2

0:20

might know Lydia, she's one of our

0:22

regular elves on the Y Workshop. Also

0:26

anyone deeply ingrained in UK geek

0:29

culture will know her name. Where

0:32

is it from? Yes, she was

0:34

one of the winners of season

0:36

13 of Only Connect when she

0:38

was in the team of the

0:41

escapologists a couple of years after

0:43

we didn't win Only Connect. I'm

0:46

really sure you'll enjoy this show with Lydia,

0:48

she's very nice, very funny and knows a

0:50

lot of stuff. While I'm here I might

0:52

as well remind you to join club fish

0:54

especially if you like listening to all these

0:57

newer elves because we do a featurette

0:59

with those guys called Meet the Elves

1:01

where they send us a fiendish question

1:04

and we try to solve it. We

1:06

also have lots of compilations on there,

1:08

we have other bonus features like Drop

1:10

as a Line where people send us

1:12

correspondence, we have quizzes, we have all

1:14

sorts, there's a discord which you can

1:16

go to and talk to like-minded fish

1:18

friends and if

1:20

by any chance we were to

1:22

announce some live shows in

1:25

the next few months then that is where you

1:27

would hear about them first. So come

1:29

and join us at club fish by

1:32

going to no such things as fish.com/apple

1:34

or no such things as fish.com/patreon if

1:36

you are not an apple user. If

1:38

you're missing Andrew Hunter-Marie fear not he

1:41

will be back very soon and you

1:43

can always get your fix of Andy

1:45

buying one of his wonderful books. I

1:48

believe his latest A Beginner's Guide to

1:50

Breaking and Entering might be available for

1:52

pre-order if you go online, in fact

1:55

yes it is, I've just checked so

1:57

definitely go and get that, we'll tell

1:59

you more. about that when it actually comes

2:01

out. Dan has a book out of

2:03

course, the theory of everything else, me and Anna also

2:05

have a book out which is everything to play for

2:07

the QI Book of Sports. Why not buy all three?

2:10

Or why not? Sit back, relax and

2:12

listen to this episode of Those Things

2:15

Fish with QIL's Lydia Mison. Okay, on

2:17

with the podcast. Hello

2:34

and welcome to another episode of No

2:37

Such Thing as a Fish, a weekly

2:39

podcast coming to you from the QI

2:41

offices in Hoburn. My name is Dan

2:43

Schreiber. I'm sitting here with Anna Tyshinsky,

2:45

James Harkin and Lydia Mison. And once

2:47

again, we have gathered around the microphones

2:49

with our four favorite facts from the

2:52

last seven days. And in no particular

2:54

order, here we go. Starting with fact

2:56

number one, and that is James.

2:59

Okay, my fact this week

3:01

is that golfer Brenda Keene

3:03

took part in the 2001

3:05

Women's US Open while eight

3:07

months pregnant and started contractions

3:09

on one of her backswings.

3:11

The resulting daughter will become

3:13

a professional golfer later this

3:15

year. So good. Isn't

3:18

that amazing? Yeah, that is amazing. How

3:21

do you know she, how are the rules of golf? I want to

3:23

get into golf. How do

3:25

we can I just say, you're a listener, we're not going

3:27

to talk about golf this whole section. Stay with

3:30

us. It's okay. That's a condition on which James

3:32

has permitted another headline

3:34

golf act. We don't just go if you really

3:36

hate golf, maybe just press fast forward about 10 times.

3:38

And then we'll get on to the normal stuff. How

3:41

do you know someone's going to be a pro golfer

3:43

before they are a pro golfer? So this is Rachel

3:45

Keene. And she has said in an interview that that's

3:47

what's going to happen. She's an amateur at the moment.

3:49

She does college golf. She's one of the best. And

3:52

for quite a while, she's been saying she's going to become a

3:55

Professional. But Yeah, she spoke in Golf Week saying

3:57

that she is going to become a professional this

3:59

fall. All this awesome for and

4:01

when sprinkle on this the fight which

4:03

I learned when watching the Netflix Gulf

4:05

documentary series Full Swing Thera There was

4:07

an episode about English Go for Alex

4:09

it's Patrick and this was just like

4:11

a throwaway line about his partner in

4:14

that documentary. Yeah yeah like this over

4:16

the commission. Anything they say that if

4:18

we love you can I ask When

4:20

she had the contraction was he made

4:22

game and continue the game. Deanna so

4:24

did happen on the eleventh teeth so

4:26

the eleventh of eighteen holes as she

4:28

said I could feel it coming. But

4:30

I was too embarrassed to blackouts see

4:32

follow through hit this still follow three.

4:36

That's the golfing time as if they

4:39

her goal through on them was doubled

4:41

up in pain ah the whole rounds

4:43

he shot nine over part which is

4:45

not brilliant but actually the real problem

4:47

with she's really nervous because was loads

4:49

of tv coverage about at loads of

4:51

press about it that she was pregnant

4:53

during this and in actual fact she

4:55

had her worst holes at the start

4:57

the round and after the contractions on

4:59

the. Eleventh hole. she was level path the

5:01

rest of the round though her game improves

5:04

after about a week Credit thing has Also

5:06

with our in our daughter got started getting

5:08

involved with I listen I'm going to be

5:10

afraid of my right to see is amazing

5:12

See such a great golfer Yeah so Cinema

5:14

had three Plan C sections but we all

5:16

must in a huge three. Must remember the

5:18

moment of the first contracts and yeah what

5:20

were you doing and do you think your

5:23

child will become that things Lydia. Wow

5:27

I was sleeping and is my

5:29

daughter could start sleeping a little

5:31

that bad. A lot about. That

5:34

would be great if that's the main of the

5:36

of the other thing I was as well. I.

5:39

Don't think I would say other. I'm

5:41

owning property in the garden so a

5:43

professional tea plantation. Owner of Success everyone

5:45

schooling point those to be we. I

5:47

wanted him to the Superbowl when my

5:50

wife's alma mater out a liar We

5:52

go last know that's great. Yeah so

5:54

like else is gonna be as high

5:57

censor the Pittsburgh Steelers over said lounge.

5:59

Results of. So

6:03

it turns out Brenda's daughter might have

6:05

actually helped because during pregnancy the fetus

6:07

and the mother share cells and

6:10

once the baby's born they

6:12

leave some of their DNA in

6:14

the mother. It's called fetal

6:16

maternal microchimerism and as

6:19

a result for mothers who have sons

6:21

male DNA has been found in mothers

6:23

up to 30 years after the birth

6:26

and it also works that if the mother

6:28

sustains organ damage while they're

6:30

pregnant the fetus can send cells

6:32

not consciously obviously but send cells

6:35

to repair the damaged organ so

6:37

maybe by sending golfing cells. They

6:40

have identified the other golfing cells. They

6:42

have identified golf cells, they're very round.

6:46

Right, a little dimpled in them. And

6:51

just to finish off their family

6:53

Rachel, Keene's grandparents were also golfers

6:55

on her mother's side. Her grandfather

6:57

Jack played for Venezuela in the

7:00

first World Amateur Team Championships in

7:02

St Andrews and her grandmother Carmen was the

7:04

captain of the Dominican team in the World

7:07

Amateurs in 1986. So

7:10

it is definitely in the genes. Genes

7:14

not allowed on golf courses just to say.

7:16

Are they not? It's endlessly fascinating golf.

7:20

Okay, so if you are one of the

7:22

people who was fast-forwarding to not hear any

7:25

golf you can come back into the room

7:27

right now. I can't promise that. I

7:29

can't guarantee everyone else can get in.

7:31

But then if you have absolutely no

7:33

interest in pregnancy maybe fast-forward another 15

7:36

minutes or so. And then if you're not

7:38

interested in Yetis probably another 15 minutes. Probably

7:42

a couple of years. Yeah, people do do

7:44

incredible things while pregnant. Something that I think

7:46

is often played down is when people do

7:48

stuff in first trimester pregnancy you get all

7:50

the sympathy when you're massive and personally

7:53

my experience is that's fine you know,

7:55

I was bounding up steps carrying a

7:57

bike but First trimester is living

7:59

hell. For. A

8:01

lot of women I think with morning sickness

8:03

and with morning sickness basically so for themselves

8:06

or anything. Someone who won the Mount Everest

8:08

Marathon and I didn't exist as slaves. Is

8:10

it the stars at the top? Because as

8:12

the well, I suppose that yeah, don't you

8:14

sit on his legs versus. You

8:17

don't even income to settle It was in

8:19

the say be saw at base camp seventeen

8:21

thousand five hundred says pretty high and these

8:23

of run about and it was one and

8:26

twenty that in by and dummy south us

8:28

up a lady who with forty four of

8:30

this i'm and three months pregnant and see

8:32

one the women's race and i think is

8:35

you've got bad morning sickness doesn't mozzarella than

8:37

winning it a eight months pregnant oh yeah

8:39

and you say tired as well and you

8:41

can't tell anybody saying just have. To

8:43

persist. Three twelve weeks as art lending

8:46

you'll find it was just going thought he's

8:48

got for assessment any. Suck

8:50

at Mount Everest Marathon effect on on

8:53

quote on her untimely supper when there's

8:55

a lot of a debate and anger

8:57

over the years about what happens when

8:59

people get pregnant and how workplaces deal

9:01

with them. and opera has this quite

9:04

a lot. and as an interesting thing

9:06

with Oprah that certain played like Wagner

9:08

plays as a lot of flying and

9:10

Wagner plays of so they don't feel

9:12

very clumsy that anyway. But

9:15

you're on your own. the it over the

9:17

pulley systems in the lawyers and sign that

9:19

the county. That that's another thing to do?

9:22

A Valkyrie? You mean, who's Yeah, Exactly.

9:24

Yes. But one of the major things

9:26

as well is that your voice changes.

9:28

And. I don't know if either of you

9:30

to sing and then have noticed posts

9:32

com or for your child. I've never

9:34

heard others say that I think to

9:36

my entire life will. Say I sing a

9:38

but mostly in private was I think this for the

9:41

best. Presidents.

9:43

Media of the day though my voice attains

9:45

oh he says he said i started husky

9:47

he did sandusky bicyclists to the other told

9:49

me about this because yeah yeahs is just

9:51

got it's got asked. To sell ya smoke

9:54

And thirty I have. a

9:56

services this is a genuine thing is to and

9:58

the science is not fully stood at the

10:00

moment so they're looking into it but they say

10:02

after the after childbirth voices of

10:04

opera singers often become enriched with

10:07

warmth creaminess and depth of color

10:09

as I say the science is not really

10:11

strong on this at the moment. Creaminess. But

10:15

yeah there's a guy called Paul Quack again

10:17

that's not a good... You're

10:20

joking! You're joking! I didn't

10:22

know this until now. Dr

10:25

Quack, an EMT specialist. A

10:28

stay-cile specialist. He

10:30

said that I've got a checklist it's not an

10:32

April fire scholastic. He said... You're

10:38

so good at that noise I feel like you've done it

10:40

at a disproportionate number of times. You've got guns over the

10:42

years. Yeah

10:44

he says they're affected by the hypervascular state of

10:46

the body that it enters to in pregnancy it

10:48

creates more blood vessels and increases blood flow through

10:51

the tissue and as a result

10:53

it changes the voice. It definitely

10:55

does seem to be true that voices get better

10:57

and this is during pregnancy for opera singers

10:59

and it's because women have almost 50% more

11:01

blood at the time but

11:03

they said they're particularly good at

11:06

the apodio technique which

11:08

is I didn't know about apparently this is crucial

11:10

in opera and it's where you basically

11:12

exhale while leaving your ribs open I

11:15

spent about an hour trying to do this and I read about this

11:17

yesterday and that makes you a really good singer

11:20

or it's gonna make things pass out. How

11:23

do you open your ribs? Yeah

11:25

you need some equipment actually. But

11:28

they also said that the baby acts like

11:30

a corset which you can push against so

11:33

the baby is putting up against your diaphragm

11:35

and you kind of use that pressure to

11:37

push up against it and one opera singer

11:39

Catherine Lewick said that in the second trimester

11:41

she felt like she was performing on steroids

11:43

high notes just came shooting out of me.

11:45

That's really good isn't it?

11:48

That's amazing. On singers and

11:50

singing do you guys

11:52

know about a fenny chacour? She

11:55

related to a two pack chacour. She is indeed

11:57

his mother. Oh god look

11:59

at my core. music knowledge. Do

12:01

you listen to her albums?

12:03

Huge fan of all of

12:05

Tupac family's albums. She

12:08

was a member of the Black Panthers

12:10

and she was arrested and charged with

12:12

counts of conspiracy to bomb police stations

12:15

while she was pregnant with Tupac

12:17

and she represented herself in court

12:19

and got an undercover cop to

12:21

admit under oath that he and

12:23

the other agents had basically organised

12:25

all the unlawful stuff and

12:28

they were kind of undercover cops but they were

12:30

trying to get them to do things that were

12:32

illegal and then they all

12:34

got acquitted in May 1971 and

12:37

then she gave that to Tupac in

12:39

June. So like

12:41

less than a month later. So she was eight

12:43

months pregnant when she was doing that stuff in

12:46

court. Wow. That's pretty cool. Good timing. We're all

12:48

doing, I learnt this fact from Jay-Z, we're all

12:50

doing um. Oh sorry, is that his name dropped?

12:52

He was just hanging out with

12:54

Jay-Z. Yeah me and Jay were hanging out and

12:56

um, no he did this interview where he stops

12:58

the interview and he says you

13:01

white people, you all do white

13:03

people pronunciation of Tupac's name. It's

13:05

Tupac, not Tupac. No I know Tupac

13:07

but when I try to say Tupac it

13:09

sounds like I'm a posh person saying that.

13:11

So it's like I have to, I'm really sorry

13:13

people who are actual fans who say Tupac but

13:15

we can't get away with it. And I also,

13:18

I know it's Tupac but I say Tupac because

13:20

I'm from the north of England. Exactly. There's a

13:22

lot of calls that come, that's why I told

13:24

Jay-Z, I said, have you been to the north?

13:26

It's how they say it though. You mean Jay-Z

13:28

right? Um,

13:32

another person who had a tough

13:34

time during pregnancy was Thomas Beattie.

13:37

Thomas Beattie. Oh that's the

13:39

transgender man who gave birth. Absolutely.

13:41

In 2010 got the Guinness World

13:43

Record for being the world's first married man

13:46

to give birth. He was

13:48

transgender man who was part way through gender

13:50

reassignment surgery. Not, I mean not literally part

13:52

way through at the

13:54

time. No. Step back, step back. Had

13:57

some parts of it and not other

13:59

parts. He says,

14:01

people's attitudes have improved since 2008, but

14:04

only slightly. Back then it was 99.999999% terrible. Today

14:09

it's probably only 95% terrible. But

14:12

a few interesting things about Thomas Beattie, because people

14:14

will remember that story, I reckon, who are listening

14:16

to this. Because it's quite famous at

14:18

the time. But his fifth

14:21

great grandfather was William Henry Harrison.

14:23

Whoa! The ninth president. Really? Yeah.

14:27

And his third great uncle was Benjamin

14:30

Harrison. Wow. Who was another president. We're getting

14:32

a lot of great descendent of

14:34

president energy. You know what? I

14:36

was thinking exactly the same thing.

14:38

So his third great uncle was

14:40

Benjamin Harrison. And Lydia, you'll

14:42

know this. Benjamin Harrison was what, the 23rd

14:44

was he? And

14:47

there was someone who was twice... Who's the person

14:49

who was Cleveland? Yeah, Grover

14:51

Cleveland was president twice on either side

14:53

of him. And Grover Cleveland was the

14:55

person who we mentioned the other day.

14:57

Yeah, because he was the grandfather... Of

15:01

the trolley problem. The woman... The

15:04

look of a foot. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, the creator

15:06

of the trolley problem. But anyway,

15:08

Thomas Beattie was also in the vastly

15:10

superior French version of Big Brother. Which

15:13

we mentioned before, I think, where every participant has

15:15

to have a secret. Do you

15:17

remember that? No. So in French

15:19

Big Brother, you go in and you also have a

15:21

secret. And there's a secondary part where people have to

15:23

guess what your secret is. So

15:26

while he was on it, another participant had a

15:28

city in Sri Lanka named after her family. And

15:31

another one was the World Car Washing Champions. But

15:33

there was one... It

15:36

was a few years after this, there was one where

15:38

one of the contestants was a dog. Daphne,

15:41

do you want to go? No. That wasn't

15:43

their secret. Oh,

15:46

that's not the secret. No, no, that was out in the open.

15:48

Sorry, right. The amazing secret

15:50

was that they were the mayor of a

15:52

town in France. So good. That's

15:56

actually ridiculous. Do you know the

15:58

leading Africa of... childbirth so

16:00

in the 20th century it became common to

16:02

advocate that because surgery is becoming more common

16:04

and also it was early-day surgery so it

16:06

was much more dangerous and someone

16:09

one of the first people to talk

16:11

about how important it was to promote

16:13

natural childbirth was a guy called Grant

16:15

Lee Dick Reid. I

16:17

just really enjoy the name. All

16:20

could be Dick Red and I don't know which is what

16:22

it's because it's read like read a book. I think

16:24

if it's read

16:27

there's more open to problems if you

16:29

say my dick's read. People

16:31

don't know. Yeah,

16:34

you're right people don't know. You mean

16:36

colour or someone's just currently reading it?

16:38

Exactly. That's before pictures, Dick Reid,

16:41

you sent me a dick read.

16:43

Was that 90th century dick? Yeah.

16:57

Okay, it is time for fact number two

16:59

and that is Anna. My fact

17:01

this week is that for almost a thousand

17:03

years Christians have debated whether to treat the

17:06

barnacle goose as a barnacle or

17:08

a goose. Are

17:10

we going to argue well for it now or is it being

17:12

decided? I think it's too controversial a

17:14

topic for us to take a stand on which it

17:16

is. Correct. So we can just talk

17:18

about it today in general. It certainly looks like

17:20

a goose. No, it is a goose obviously.

17:23

But it's been a very

17:25

controversial thing for more than a thousand

17:27

years in fact because when meat is

17:30

not allowed, usually at Lent or on

17:32

Fridays, it's always varied what

17:34

days you fast in Christianity depending on time

17:36

and place and denomination but

17:38

fish tends to be permitted. And

17:40

there was this rumour going around in about

17:42

the 12th century that the barnacle goose was

17:44

maybe a fish, maybe a barnacally thing, a

17:46

group of barnacles. So

17:49

they said maybe we can eat it, maybe we can't. And

17:52

across the ages if you look it up, there

17:54

are just constantly people saying, well

17:56

the Irish bishops are still doing that thing where

17:59

they eat barnacle geese. I mean I think

18:01

Gerald of Wales in 1187 campaigned

18:03

against it but acknowledged

18:05

that they were probably kind of barnacles. They

18:07

grew out of wood but he still said that's

18:09

no reason for these bishops in the island. Did they

18:11

not find eggs? How

18:14

does anyone think that a goose comes

18:16

from a barnacle? Yeah,

18:19

it's interesting isn't it? You've got to

18:21

suspect they didn't look hard enough. Because

18:25

their reasoning was pretty

18:27

weird anyway. It was essentially that

18:29

goose barnacles, which are the barnacles

18:31

that barnacle geese were thought to have

18:33

sprouted from, tend to grow on the

18:36

bottom of bits of wood that are

18:38

floating around at sea. And sort of

18:40

have a goose-like shape-ish has been the

18:42

claim. They're kind of white aren't they with

18:44

like a black bit. Necky thing, which you might

18:46

call a neck. Didn't have a head attached which

18:48

does seem to be appropriate but whatever. Or any

18:50

wings. Or legs. No. They

18:55

were idiots back then. Sounds like a goose to

18:57

me. I mean. Is it true I think that

18:59

the geese would migrate so

19:01

they would all disappear and

19:03

there'd be no geese. And then the geese would come

19:06

back and we didn't know that

19:08

migration was a thing so it just seemed like they all

19:10

disappeared and then they all came back. But they all came

19:12

back about the same time as Driftwood was coming in

19:14

with all these barnacles on them and stuff like

19:16

that I think. Okay,

19:18

yeah. I think basically the problem was no one

19:20

knew what migration was. All

19:22

birds disappeared and then they all came

19:24

back and people's kids would be like,

19:27

why are there no geese? Why are there no geese

19:29

in the winter? Why are they only here in the

19:32

summer? And then people's parents had to make up some

19:34

bullshit. Oh you

19:36

see that tree? Yeah they come off the tree.

19:38

Now eat your peas. It was much easier to make

19:40

things up back then. There was a man called John

19:42

Gerard who actually had a garden here in Hoburn that

19:44

he wrote a book about all the plants that

19:47

you would find in it and he said

19:49

barnacle geese literally grew on trees.

19:52

And he covered his own back by saying, look, I

19:55

have seen this happen but in some parts

19:57

of the country it doesn't happen. So if

19:59

anybody from another part of England tells you

20:01

that it doesn't happen. They're probably telling the trees

20:04

but I have seen it happen. So in

20:06

the north they may be speaking their own

20:09

truth but I've seen it happen. There's much

20:11

less science to go on in these days.

20:13

After Gerard's death one of his friends issued

20:15

an update to his book with lots of

20:18

corrections. Oh really? Yeah.

20:20

He back checks it? Yeah. It's

20:22

a great idea. Dan, the chance of me

20:24

out living you is probably pretty slim. What

20:26

if I do I'm going through your book

20:28

with a red pen. Oh god. Jesus,

20:31

where would be anything worse? In

20:34

Ireland I was reading a few

20:36

slang terms to do with Lent and Green's

20:39

slang dictionary has this thing which

20:41

is Cock Tuesday. Cock Tuesday?

20:44

Yeah. Okay. So

20:46

it's sort of like in the eve prior

20:48

to Lent it'd be I guess where you

20:50

would gorge yourself. Oh so what now is

20:52

pancake day? Pancake day. Yeah. But

20:54

it used to be Cock Tuesday. Yeah. Okay. Yeah.

20:58

Do we find out why it's Cock Tuesday? Oh I

21:00

assumed it was you who just ate a lot of meat. God

21:02

I didn't actually... You ate a lot

21:05

of meat so you called it Cock Tuesday? You tried

21:07

that. That's a real meat isn't it? You're eating cock.

21:09

Cock. Yeah. Okay.

21:12

Is it not? I've been eating

21:14

cock on a Tuesday. That has never been part of

21:16

Christian tradition. I'm pretty sure the Bible says you're not

21:18

allowed to eat cock on a Tuesday. Right. I

21:21

think it's a little bit tocus. Yeah you're right. Yeah

21:24

I guess it is that. Yeah. Could have been cock

21:26

fighting. Yeah. Could have been

21:28

cock fighting. In fact I do happen to

21:30

know that cock fighting did happen on Shrove

21:32

Tuesday actually. Yeah. Because it

21:34

was banned wasn't it? Do you remember this

21:36

is in our book Emma? Yeah yeah yeah

21:38

I know. I'll be fact

21:41

checking that if James dies before me. I

21:45

mean when you read about the history of what you're allowed

21:47

to eat and drink in Lent it does give the impression

21:49

that the poop has just been inundated throughout time with people

21:51

knocking at the door going can I try this? Can I

21:53

have this? And

21:56

this beaver is always a famous example that

21:58

this beaver was classified as a fish. for

22:00

hundreds of years by the Catholic Church in

22:02

South America because it swims a lot and

22:04

yet it's always like and they went to the

22:07

Pope and they said Pope are we allowed

22:09

to do this one just like they find

22:11

a new animal yeah like find a dog

22:13

bill platypus Pope come and look at this

22:15

come on it's in water amazing

22:18

yeah half his life is just loophole

22:20

admin iguanas

22:23

was a big one when the

22:25

when the Spanish went over to

22:27

South America because they spend

22:29

a lot of time in water they said Pope

22:31

can we eat this and the Pope

22:34

said yes even though the the

22:37

black iguana was the one that people at which

22:39

was a land iguana on

22:42

the rules that the green one spent

22:44

time in water so iguanas are kind

22:46

of fishy things so it was a

22:48

double loop oh right cousin sometimes like

22:50

to swim yeah

22:54

sometimes the Pope comes out with

22:56

some suggestions for what you can

22:58

do during Lent 2020 what do

23:00

you think he said to give

23:02

up for Lent face

23:05

masks okay

23:07

what could you give up I bet no they're trying

23:09

to be cool it's 2020 we're

23:16

in lockdown yeah it's kind of you're in the right

23:18

you're in the right territory a lot of people are

23:20

online I guess they're at home yeah 2020 masturbating

23:24

online on zoom with

23:28

the rest of the month yeah it

23:31

was very close come

23:36

on we can get this you can get it

23:38

but it's boring out scheduling the meetings

23:43

of 9 o'clock in the morning oh yeah

23:45

yeah it's we're in the territory just

23:47

remember a lot of people spending time

23:49

online and online is

23:51

a very scary place sometimes oh those

23:54

online quizzes they were all online comedy

23:56

shows Is

24:00

it just like take

24:02

some time out from

24:05

the internet? It's trolling.

24:08

So take time off from sending

24:10

negative messages out into the world

24:12

trolls stop your anger saying

24:14

don't murder people. Yeah, like stop

24:16

doing it full stop and then you

24:18

can have a massive troll at the end of length.

24:21

Just go online abuse everyone you can find. On

24:23

cock Tuesday you can all be cocks on there.

24:26

That's where it comes from. That's what he

24:29

said. He said if you all stop just

24:31

for a month then the world will be

24:33

a better place and then you can all

24:35

go back to being fucking losers. Alright stop

24:38

now. Do

24:41

you guys know about mop eggs? Mop

24:43

eggs. Mop eggs actually. Mop eggs. But I want

24:45

to know also what you think a mop egg

24:47

would be. That's

24:50

fun. Is a

24:52

mop egg an egg which is pretending to

24:54

be a mop? Mmm.

24:58

You're thinking of the mop mop egg. Yeah,

25:01

just under that dictionary. It's something that's

25:03

not really an egg because you can't

25:05

eat eggs over length. Yeah. But

25:07

you eat this particular thing instead. Yes. Which

25:10

is. You can probably get it.

25:13

Okay, you can't get it. I'll take it

25:15

back. Hang on, so it's a food? Oh,

25:17

is it? I know what it'll be.

25:19

What's the aquafaver? Or aquafaver?

25:22

You are close but because as we I think

25:24

we probably have mentioned the concept of aquafarver was invented

25:26

about four years ago and this comes from the 1450s.

25:29

It wasn't that. So was

25:31

it something that you can use instead of

25:34

eggs? It was something that you used

25:36

to make and it's a recipe for making a

25:38

mop egg because you couldn't eat animal products that

25:40

included egg but something that was extremely popular, much

25:42

more popular than dairy milk throughout medieval times was

25:45

almond milk. Oh yeah. And that's

25:47

partly because you could eat that still in

25:49

length and so you filled an empty egg

25:51

shell. Now, I don't know how you got

25:53

the egg shell really empty and then to a place where you could fill

25:55

it again. Oh, it's just a tiny hole. Yeah,

25:57

just a little hole. One in each end. blow

26:00

it. But then you have to fill

26:02

it up with... Okay, slightly bigger hole. A

26:04

little thick hole. Okay, make a hole in

26:06

your egg, empty it and then you fill

26:08

it with a mixture of almond milk based

26:10

jelly and then real almonds in the middle

26:12

dyed yellow with saffron. So you've got crunchy

26:14

almond in the middle yellow and then grey

26:16

almond jelly outside and it looks like a

26:18

just shit egg. Right. By

26:22

the way, apparently this is just calling back

26:24

to the last fact, you shouldn't blow air

26:26

up a vagina when someone's pregnant. That's

26:30

true. I mean, honestly, if you're going to do

26:32

it as permission anyway, whether

26:34

they're pregnant or not. Yeah, that is

26:36

dangerous, isn't it? I've heard that. Is

26:38

it? Well, actually, you know what? I've

26:40

never checked it. Yeah. But it's the

26:42

kind of thing you hear. It's kind

26:44

of thing you hear in the playground.

26:47

Really? Yeah, yeah. I think it went to a cool

26:49

school. Oh, so,

26:52

um, Philip O'Fish McDonald's.

26:55

Oh, yeah. Lydia, you and I were talking

26:58

about this. Yeah, it's a byproduct of

27:00

Catholic fasting. So it was developed

27:02

in 1962 by a man called

27:04

Lou Groen. He ran the Cincinnati

27:06

franchise and couldn't sell burgers on

27:08

Fridays or during Lent because most

27:10

customers were Catholic. And

27:12

so he came up with this idea

27:14

of this horrible burger. Sorry, I'm sure

27:17

it's great. And now, a days about

27:19

25% of the Felicity

27:21

fishes bought by McDonald's customers in any one

27:23

year are bought during the 40 days of

27:25

Lent. Nobody buys in the rest of the

27:27

year. Really? Yeah. Yeah. That's so interesting.

27:29

Yeah. I wouldn't have thought there were that many

27:31

devout Catholics going to McDonald's. In America, there's loads.

27:33

Some places that don't even sell them outside of

27:36

Lent, they just wait for Lent and then they

27:38

bring it back on the menu. That's amazing.

27:40

And this guy, Groen, he

27:43

developed them in 1962. So Ray Kroc had

27:45

taken over McDonald's in 61. And so they

27:49

Basically had a competition between them because he,

27:51

Ray Kroc, had come up with his own

27:53

burger at the same time, which is a

27:55

non-meat burger called the Hula Burger, which I

27:57

believe we've mentioned before. Yeah, it was Hula

27:59

Hoops. No grilled pineapple would seize

28:01

on a cold bonds And so he

28:03

said who ever cells the most will

28:05

be on the permanent menu after a

28:07

bit of time and fill it as

28:09

this one out to know what it

28:11

does. More birthday parties than any other

28:13

Mcdonalds in the well as up in

28:16

the on of year and that the

28:18

ear as often as. Fast

28:21

as it is. Not as though

28:23

no Marcus months think it's I

28:25

need must sacrifice Close but not

28:27

quite right in Serbia Capsule. Favourite.

28:31

L grass tourette's symbol. great yeah

28:33

and it's because basically when Mcdonalds

28:35

pass the iron curtain it was

28:37

so popular like a really like

28:40

watching because both he lydia and

28:42

same or quizzes and or an

28:44

acrobatic that back like training decided

28:46

to say can be added Have

28:49

the Dead as far. As

28:52

bad as they. Said it was the place where

28:54

the golden arches that legacy. Will break and

28:56

oh that is that. Oh. Say that

28:58

suits and philosophical idea that ne two

29:01

countries with Macdonald had ever gone to

29:03

war with each other. Ah. Well

29:06

as with and I'm not sure how

29:08

true ever was but there was this

29:10

idea that if a country has Mcdonalds

29:12

they probably won't get get more with

29:14

each other And off to somebody put

29:16

in an academic. our school a few

29:18

weeks native on said here answer though

29:20

not to throw his ever really existed

29:22

was broken. Up Points and I

29:24

quickly talk about barnacles. Yana

29:26

Enormous penises settle for less

29:28

so they have the largest

29:30

penis to body ratio in

29:32

the world. Cinco. De

29:35

one reason is because they don't move around

29:37

very much. Because. They

29:39

just kind of attached things. But.

29:41

They do so of internal population so if

29:44

your if you're stuck where you are imagine

29:46

the on p a nail to the ground

29:48

and you wanna have sex with someone who's

29:50

you know three or four feet away and

29:53

that seats and they'll to the ground the

29:55

only way you could do that realistically as

29:57

with a very long penis. The

30:00

answer it. That's what they did.

30:02

That's what they've evolved. For

30:06

hims spend a great scouts have a

30:08

married couple barnacles for as if the

30:10

random guy and betrayed. Every

30:13

night it has lots of a faded out

30:15

over the front of and I could year

30:18

on an aeroplane had that they've put two

30:20

of you like one cia them into the

30:22

system. a random it a memento yeah yeah

30:24

yeahs of passing multi this to each other.

30:27

ah well it's if you can imagine that

30:29

with penises and barnacles. Than that's what

30:31

happens. but they recently they found

30:33

out that goose neck barnacles which

30:35

I'm not sure if it's the

30:37

same as though these ones by

30:39

think it might be. they do

30:41

something called spam casting. Which

30:44

isn't a new podcast. As

30:46

if. It's where you

30:49

attack the way into the water and

30:51

the water saw via it's way too

30:53

early to a female yellow on sensible

30:55

that's a good way of doing that

30:58

but was the result is that they

31:00

have evolved much shorter and less stretchy

31:02

penises lol. Know of events is adamant.

31:05

So that's what happened, save they kind of

31:07

come up with his new way of mating

31:10

or at the expense of thirteen, a stretch

31:12

in a town full. Of than steadiness can

31:14

I get some and other some an offering. Pulling

31:16

the I. Guess basin

31:18

be like can you come out ahead sorry I didn't want to

31:20

get this to that. Girl. A The. Other

31:23

one and I am. I read or promise it

31:26

will. Come

31:29

with us. He never. Mentioned the essential role

31:31

the Barnacle stayed aden Britain's. Kind

31:33

of a third reputation on and.

31:35

And a set of basically else ruling

31:38

the waves. Really down to. Some

31:40

extent of defeating them to their such

31:42

a huge problem for sit said they

31:45

glued himself with this really powerful glued

31:47

to the hold of sit and that

31:49

means the sit need to use a

31:51

huge. Amount will feel up to forty

31:53

percent more few just to get going

31:55

with the he's way and trying to

31:57

wait on Android has gone by is

31:59

falling. Not.

32:02

Sister was just. it's not often

32:05

disagree who I have always made

32:07

by a foul. And in

32:09

the Eighteenth century, it was the British

32:11

he realized as he sees your whole

32:13

thing copper, the phone calls com at

32:16

his wet towel heads when and now

32:18

Completely revolution. And that was what may

32:20

britain. This naval superpower. One of the

32:22

essential things. But. It is a problem

32:24

again now because. We stop making both

32:26

out of copper and. That

32:29

box, but I do wonders

32:31

apply. Blistering Barnacles is a.

32:33

Explicit with see in Trenton,

32:35

Nj. I never

32:37

saw on a very specific and

32:39

dollars and his official hundred. Number

32:50

three. And that is my facts. My

32:52

psych this week is that just after

32:55

the Titanic hit the iceberg, many of

32:57

the first class passengers sprung into action

32:59

at immediately organize snowball fights for the

33:01

next morning. Wealth?

33:04

yeah I mean just to sort of.

33:06

So how non threatening they thought the

33:08

moment was like I found this fact

33:10

in a really bizarre place on reading

33:12

a book of the My Michael Poking

33:14

the Dead Frogs which is by a

33:16

guy called nine o'clock in. Fact

33:19

that. No, read some.

33:21

It's by Mike Sacks shoes. It's an amazing

33:24

book If you're into comedy history, it's interviews

33:26

with great comedy writers and was visiting an

33:28

interview with a guy called Henry Beard his

33:30

snorted National Lampoon he was part of and.

33:32

Board of the Rings The first lot

33:35

of the Rings parody stuff in there

33:37

is a says my dad was friends

33:39

with a guy called Lawrence Beasley and

33:41

he was a survivor of the Titanic

33:43

and then as a footnote that tells

33:45

that in an account given in Lawrence

33:47

Beasley Book which is titled Blistering Barnacles.

33:53

See. A

33:55

so called the Loss of the Titanic as specific

33:57

as as have started with Down or of Us.

34:00

The reveal of the actual tied up to

34:02

the out is to take than the last

34:04

thing. the loss of the Ss Titanic spam.

34:06

it's story and it's lessons by one of

34:08

the survivors. And yeah he said that as

34:10

soon as the hit the courage to illustrate

34:12

further how little danger was apprehended when it

34:15

was discovered on the first class deck that

34:17

the forward lower deck was credited with small

34:19

ice. Snowballing matches were arranged for the following

34:21

morning and some passengers even went down to

34:23

the debts and burrow back small pieces of

34:25

ice which were handed rams. are they sell

34:28

question yes these up a hugely bits. Of

34:30

I said yeah that follow that

34:32

that snowball fights to me is

34:34

safer at least if he's now.

34:36

Rather than that yes yeah you

34:38

I get annoyed with the button

34:40

effects of incentivize Them as one

34:42

of the professors I actually was

34:44

thinking about as I think possibly

34:46

what happened is that the ice

34:48

was almost grated so lots of

34:50

powder is it works with our

34:52

like might never have like a

34:54

frozen martine exactly. Yeah is my.

34:58

Pillow The. Other passengers climate either as a

35:00

non. Attorney for to as a known as

35:02

and tests and yeah. I think it doesn't

35:04

he was savings could see at the time according

35:06

to the paper reports. The news reports of

35:08

from the next day. They said

35:11

the duck with fill with ice and snow

35:13

which have been say how how and and

35:15

passengers were meeting themselves. by throwing them around

35:17

each other. Immediately younger than I had

35:19

playing football as well. when I would

35:21

the ice like lumps of ice kicking

35:23

the at each a that a sliding

35:25

of along and the was a still

35:27

to cope Walter Hearst am I read

35:29

the he answered some fellow stoke his

35:31

cabin as three lumps of I sat

35:33

them to wake them up north be

35:35

easily we kind of mentions him on

35:37

the So before in passing he was

35:39

there as we talked about some survivor

35:41

guilt. A lot of the people that

35:43

survived the Titanic believed that may be

35:46

particularly. If they were male, I think almost. Really?

35:48

Almost exclusively if they were male, they should

35:50

have gone down with it or speedily survived

35:52

because he was standing on the side where

35:54

the last boats were going down and a

35:56

rumor went round that they would now taking

35:58

men off the boat on. Other side

36:00

of the Titanic, everyone ran around but he

36:02

just hung out there. He just didn't go.

36:05

This is his story and does. And then

36:07

they said the small spaces you could get

36:09

in. so he jumped in that one and

36:11

that's how he survived, not knowing that that

36:13

was a lie that there weren't any other

36:16

on the other side. I'm and so he

36:18

survives. and he had submitted skills a bit

36:20

to the point where he jumped onto the

36:22

sets of a movie on the Titanic that

36:24

was being filmed and he tried to symbolically

36:27

go down. With. The iceberg. Phil

36:29

Knight not the same night. on

36:32

a lot of the lot and he got he

36:34

got caught. they kicked him up with that think

36:37

it's about that time. That

36:39

the asked. His grandson's talks about the fact

36:41

that it was a thing back then more

36:44

so he says more so than any other

36:46

time. Way it was women and children First

36:48

was not just like a thing or suggest

36:50

and it was bills and seen either. With

36:53

quite controversial even during and immediately after

36:55

the thinking this women and children I

36:57

d s and cause the men obviously

36:59

with the breadwinners they will have the

37:01

resources say he didn't bring your husband

37:03

with you on to the by then

37:05

he would be. Poor and destitute

37:07

say. That listen arguing amongst survivors

37:09

and people trying to the of the by

37:12

about whether it should be said the man

37:14

be left on the bay and liter women

37:16

and children destitute. What Russia And they said

37:18

it's not women and children fast as a

37:20

lot of the see but isn't haven't lot

37:22

of human nature. Ah

37:24

Kei interesting say so they should have

37:26

done a sort of like. Means.

37:29

That when I q test or something, see you have

37:31

the most useful friend. When I mean tested survival I'm

37:33

sure what. I play and play lehigh three

37:35

on a quest Lydia the other night

37:37

I had a fact that some to

37:39

go main account so that. Apple,

37:42

Zagreb Some of this. Comes

37:45

as a. Result

37:49

I found I decided to go

37:51

to my summers survival. Most interesting

37:53

blue connection between the sky as

37:55

well Beasley is that some his

37:58

son Alec was married to. The

38:00

writer called Dodi Smith and since

38:02

he wrote One Hundred and One

38:04

Dalmatians, they had just a little

38:06

is no presidential can examine. It's

38:08

still pretty good going. I'm. Speaking

38:10

out the with Survivor's. Guilt. Another one was

38:12

a person who is the coward of

38:14

the Titanic said he did I think

38:16

of as the coward of this whole

38:18

story but my name and really that

38:20

exactly. As you say

38:23

videos is historically accurate of Ceos as Veneto

38:25

that sells I'm going to go with his.

38:27

may be a breeze it may who is

38:29

the had voiced all I knew with the

38:31

guy who apparently or it's like a to

38:33

encourage them to keep the sit going faster

38:35

so they could make the morning headlines in

38:37

our and in all adaptations of Titanic. he

38:40

is villain the panties and and cause he

38:42

was the reason that crossed and then he.

38:44

Escaped onto a lifeboat. snuck onto a lifeboat.

38:47

And. Them is not my to sell.

38:49

It is a real rehabilitated sir. The

38:51

reason that he's a pantomime villain still

38:53

today is because when he mandel. First

38:55

to until the newspaper the the time

38:58

the incense financial stuff hated him. It.

39:00

May was is quite cold. Awkward Brits

39:02

past with the American

39:05

guy and. He does run

39:07

the smear campaign and almost immediately off

39:09

the Titanic sank, he made his papers

39:11

published the suggestion that the emblem of

39:13

white star be changed to yellow liver.

39:16

And on in a testament to his cowardice, off

39:18

and actually he we have no evidence he did

39:21

that. It was voted that he did his duty

39:23

completely. He was on the very. Last lifeboat

39:25

to leave. And come as

39:27

a driver the captain. Were.

39:29

Was a know this is hiding away and not

39:31

the room they spoke. With also as a

39:33

I haven't seen any of the movies by

39:35

sees me like that bugged I would be

39:38

iceberg s is of the iceberg was just

39:40

doing his duty. Challenge was as simple as

39:42

that. Order to do think sit with a

39:44

lot of people went to testify about what

39:46

be experience was just so we could get

39:48

it down in history built. Some people were

39:51

trying to get money from the the company

39:53

as well for the disaster and one woman.

39:55

Basically it reads like the worst Trip Advisor

39:57

of years ever since of South America is

39:59

like. The Hague Ages Hurry to get to

40:01

the actual incident of son of the food we

40:03

say I do so not of the gonna. We

40:06

were put into a third class room. we should

40:08

have been in a different room and we were

40:10

the i'm an early enough for hims against people

40:12

Another Linda three people that we had the meals

40:14

were not being served correctly but then she does

40:17

Make this point is that when they did hit

40:19

she sent her son also he does. He actually

40:21

complain about stuff that and wow that's what I

40:23

mean. It's like about for years old. Yeah yeah

40:25

it's a proper trip advisor to I also affects

40:28

us all other. Than

40:31

see then. Also, she says that her son

40:34

goes up fine for captain. And. He's

40:36

in a card game and he laughs it off

40:38

he says have this is nothing and you don't

40:40

see as I guess that it goes to complaints

40:42

about her going the bug that we were put

40:44

down in the life rob that was a nightmare

40:46

Give it to last the lowering of as I

40:48

know whether my parents it was either by on

40:51

top of us and was pressed into else that

40:53

might be valuable your mother clone on this that

40:55

maybe we'll end up winning one of those are

40:57

these that had the plants and response from White

40:59

star line. You

41:01

pay for the first class. Ticket was a we

41:03

will and noise we hit the iceberg. Businesses

41:07

Thank you for your feedback. We release

41:09

any. Or

41:11

any of our line is so funny. And

41:13

he had of a woman named File it just that. By.

41:15

Much as of know. She. Survived the sinking

41:17

of not only the Titanic but also

41:19

the Britannic a nice and sixteen and

41:21

she was aboard the said sister ship

41:23

the Olympics when it collided with another

41:25

bait and then he sent in nineteen

41:27

eleven as as see like to write

41:29

a memoir where she complained the after

41:32

the Titanic sank see and that the

41:34

mic taken aloe that because he couldn't

41:36

find a teeth breasts and she was

41:38

complaining all the time about not having

41:40

a tooth brushing said the other survivors

41:42

stuff making fun of eye on what

41:44

in when that italic was thinking of

41:46

I was busy. With on the set off

41:48

the top Atheists? yeah gotten. secondly for him and

41:50

that and so she just kept complaining that nobody

41:52

would give her a T for a success. They

41:54

will return it says she. The first thing she

41:56

did when it started sinking was she ran to

41:59

get her toothbrush. She said a friend

42:01

had told her never undertaken other disaster without

42:03

first making sure of your toothbrush. Wow and

42:05

how without the lessons to way from being

42:07

on the Titanic as exciting. As

42:10

it mainly what read about in Africa the

42:12

seesaw, Will one minute do is make sure

42:15

I bring it to personally Time was while

42:17

I might think is don't out of massive

42:19

fucking simple sending him Iraq. And.

42:24

The original Sin and Platonic was the

42:26

original captain as a and the one

42:29

who than was the conference know so

42:31

many Edward Smith habits. Misses the kittens

42:33

and when it was sailing banana see one

42:35

of the thing assembled in Belfast. Okay, I just

42:37

think it is quite easy just to be a constant have

42:39

a sip wireless think. Is

42:41

most of the word does come in one sense

42:44

that the see as. A call misconception on the

42:46

hardest part is something that won't see a thing

42:48

though. has a passion. Know

42:51

I had a monster in Belfast. he would

42:53

love son who are assembling the crew together

42:55

to guess at the minimum than. Where.

42:57

It went off to handicapped and it's Hampton

42:59

is a reason. He, as he didn't, he just

43:01

got a cruiser. doubtless. That

43:04

he was officially caps on the Titanic on

43:06

They hadn't seen a the link between Titanic

43:27

43:29

didn't sound like my name. both had

43:32

a Mcdonalds and rather than that is

43:34

43:36

Hms Titanic sank on the same

43:38

America, which funds children from

44:49

throwing snowballs at each other.

44:52

Ah, Blind to that has. And I

44:55

think the idea was that to you

44:57

know it's not protesters and stuff but

44:59

effectively a stop people from throwing snowballs

45:01

and they eventually chase a rule book.

45:03

What happened was that people heard about

45:06

this law and they got very very

45:08

upset about it and started so of

45:10

trolling the city. And. Said how come

45:12

you Stopping kids from throwing snowballs is

45:14

disgusting. And one of

45:17

the people who's in charge said that

47:44

this New York City restaurant comply seat near

48:50

a bit more as in this. One

48:53

one of really mira mesa me my. Billie

48:56

says hours of Fire as exist always

48:59

had a buyer firing specifics of up

49:01

as soon as an overdose. Exactly as

49:03

much as I. Was away for your

49:05

why is the modern equivalent of naming

49:07

your business Double a plumbing or Aaa

49:10

locksmith? An Apple of the see I

49:12

think we said Perth could Apple because

49:14

they wanted to be ahead of Atari.

49:16

I actually. Read that you can sell kind

49:18

of whole. The company is obviously not. Really

49:21

accurately. But if it's like other plumbing,

49:23

you know that they came out around

49:25

the time of yellow pages. yeah. And

49:27

telephone directory? Yeah, yes. If the cold

49:30

done Schreiber locksmiths than that came before

49:32

that when the most important thing was

49:34

reputation. So people with name it after

49:36

the you know the name of the

49:38

person from. you're not dumps either though.

49:41

Thousand and three. As

49:45

these days like in the into that area

49:47

you might be more likely to be called,

49:50

you know, Oxford. Flamingo Pm because people

49:52

are more likely to search for

49:54

the name. I saw something wrong

49:56

50:12

road let's or something like that and be right

50:14

50:19

write a good the yeah I think that only

50:21

works. That's only useful if you write some piece

50:23

of shit the you want people to accidentally by

50:25

going to be I see what to be a

50:28
