Full Episode Transcript

00:00:01:04 – 00:00:20:11
Just hate the doctor's moment. Just got real beef for my doctors, then done anything wrong? In fact, they're doing everything right. It's just, getting on my nerves because they're like, you're like, oh, I've got these. I've told you about. I've. I've spoke about this on the pod before, about the peripheral neuropathy. What the what the fuck's that?

00:00:20:13 – 00:00:40:14
Have I never spoken to you about this? Well, hang on a second. So we've got the. That's not where you can't vision things in your head. No, no, no, that's that's, a fantasia. I got so-called vision things in my vision. I can't imagine things in my head. I can't create an image in my head. Yeah. You have a phobia about house.

00:00:40:14 – 00:01:08:05
Is that even though that's not. Yeah, that's something else. No, that's that's right. Now, I've never told you about what you said about two years. What is it? It's like my feet are on fire all the time. So it is funny. It is funny, but it is also super painful. What if I just heard about this? I know I've told you about this before.

00:01:08:07 – 00:01:29:22
No, I, Yeah. So it's like it's, basics and nerve. That nerve damage. It's nerve damage. And so my feet right now, I'm looking at my feet. It feels like they're on fire. Like someone set fire to them. That's. That's why that's what I. That's what I have all day, every day, even when I go to bed.

00:01:29:24 – 00:02:08:11
How did it happen? How many times you just walk it. No, no, no, it's what it's like. It's it's typically about. Well, there's a number of ways you can get it, but excessive sugar is, is one way. So alcohol excessive alcohol intake potentially diabetics have it. But also people that have Covid 56% a example of long Covid, 56% of people who were exposed to the Covid 19 virus have developed some form of peripheral neuropathy.

00:02:08:13 – 00:02:27:21
So how did you get Covid? Yeah, twas the worst thing. It could be worst. I've never been as ill feel as well as I did when that. So it's even linked to that. Whatever it is, I've got it. And there's no cure, so you can't make it. You can apparently can make it better. This is quacks online are saying you can fix it.

00:02:27:21 – 00:02:56:08
You can find ways of making it better. But the NHS sort of like is pain management right. Rather than, than anyway, so the doctor I'm going to the doctor's right. So I'm on Boxing Day I will said, and I'm not going to go into the no drinking thing, but I gave up drinking. Right. And I'm thinking when you give up drinking, what it does is it you start to focus on things that you wouldn't have done if you were drinking.

00:02:56:10 – 00:03:22:03
So drinking does wonderfully. And what was become became becoming aware to becoming aware to me is drinking dulls all of the things that you should think about for me. Yeah. So the minute you start drinking, your body goes away. This is good. You know, even. Don't worry about everything. Just have a drink. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Why don't you get another cancer?

00:03:22:03 – 00:03:43:09
You don't have to get up. Blood tells you good stuff. Yes. Good. So. And and that's sort of like drinking at home and not. And then so when you stop drinking, your brain starts working normally. So like going I should go to the dentist. I should go to the doctor's, I should I you start behaving like a fucking adult like most people do.

00:03:43:11 – 00:04:00:15
Yeah, yeah. So I've been going through this process and because it kickstarted with the fucking neuropathy. Right. It keeps like that. So I need to get this sorted because drinking takes it away but it also adds to it. So go, go get it sorted. Anyway, the minute you're in there you're like, well, we need to want to test you for this.

00:04:00:15 – 00:04:17:16
I want to test you for that. I want to do tests. You want to test your liver function, test the kidney function. We want to test your cholesterol. Oh, we forgot to do the cholesterol. We need to get you back in front of a blood test. And then. So there's that. I'm dealing with that, which is I'm grateful because I'm, you know, they're going to make me feel better.

00:04:17:18 – 00:04:51:15
But I went to the dentist yesterday. That's another thing I had to do. I didn't want to do it. Well got a, you got like, you've got hereditary recession and your teeth were going back. You're back basically in there. The the the, the jawline is receding. Basically I have to go to a hygienist once every three months because they've got like these honeycomb formations in what, between my, in the sort of roots of my teeth that need to be cleaned properly.

00:04:51:15 – 00:05:06:03
And you can only where you can do it as a hygienist. You can't do it, can't do it with you just but but so basically I've done I think that's a fit up. I think they're just trying to milk you for money on that. But at the moment, gums are quite sensitive. I do need to, I don't I'm just going to do it, I don't care.

00:05:06:03 – 00:05:28:13
Take my money. If you feel like I'm doing the right thing, I'm doing the right thing. I don't need you to put that in my head. But really, are you? When's the last time you went to Denis? I went to. I went a record. He's like. So I didn't go for about seven years. Yeah. Last summer. I know that 19, actually, that is a lie.

00:05:28:15 – 00:05:49:14
But I had an NHS, Denis and I missed the appointment. And then they chucked me off the books. And then I only went privately when something was fucking horribly wrong. Yeah. And they would have to, I'd have to have a tooth extraction or whatever. And from then on in, I only go and see the dentist when I've got a problem.

00:05:49:16 – 00:06:08:23
And I went to take my girls to the appointment to our local and is the one that I stood up and they chuck me off their books. And every year I ring them and say, do you have any NHS appointments there? I'd say no, and I'd be like, fair enough. And while I in there, I said, As I'm in here, do you have any, any x, any NHS appointments?

00:06:09:00 – 00:06:30:08
And they said, actually we've just opened up. So I said can I have an appointment? They gave me an appointment and they said, we've checked our records. You got kicked off because you missed your last one. If this happens again, you'll get kicked off again. So that's fine. So now go to the dentist regularly. The dentist is somebody, her son goes to.

00:06:30:09 – 00:06:50:14
My daughter's our school, and my Mrs. is his teaching assistant. So there's this kind of. Yeah, she knows the surname now, knows me and stuff. So she's asking me questions about smoking and stuff like that. And I had to kind of like, she's like, I know you smoke. And I'm like, right, okay, brilliant. Can you do me a favor?

00:06:50:14 – 00:07:12:04
Can you not tell my children that I smoke or vape or do any of that stuff? Yeah. And she was like, yeah, fine. And I, you know, have to keep it between us. But so yes. Bad in it for your teeth. Yeah. It's really bad. And she was, she was asking me how often I brush and I said, well, like everyone else twice a day I drove the business as I know I can shop.

00:07:12:06 – 00:07:31:03
I like telling you. Yeah. Brushing them and I wouldn't. Yeah, I went then, you know what was what brands your toothbrush. Mind your own fucking business about brands. My toothbrush. Yeah. And I was like, well, I don't know. And she said, what is it, around one nice oval? Sure. Well, I know what it is. I well, good for you.

00:07:31:05 – 00:07:56:14
You know, sort of muggy myself off that exacerbate. Fucking bit fresh from air in it. Okay. They recommend it. They recommend it. I think also I wanted to go back to your room. The doctor's point. Right. I, I have a doctor that I go to and he's been head of the surgery for wear an ear for years and I always booking to see him.

00:07:56:16 – 00:08:18:07
But when I first went into him, I got the biggest surprise of my life. So you normally knock on the door clock out, was it? You know, it wasn't. It was. It was worse than that day. I put that away. Yeah. Just protect the door again. Robert. Back. Can you put away?

00:08:18:09 – 00:08:42:09
The twin in your garden and the walls in the in his dental practice was water was covered in Liverpool posters like newspaper clippings where, where they had won the FA Cup. And Gerrard is doing a Klinsmann and slide in and like all these other things everywhere, I'm like, I've, I just walked into the head of the surgery room or a 14 year old's bedroom.

00:08:42:09 – 00:08:58:22
I'm not sure like thinking, what what the fuck is going on there? What do you think? We have confidence, you know, when you go to the doctor and then they're like, all right, to pull your pants down? How do you feel? Are you grown up about it? Yeah, I am a grown up about it. I do remember this time.

00:08:58:22 – 00:09:24:18
I must have been between 18 and 20, and one day at work I had a really aching bollock, like really aching. Don't know what it was. And I was walking round this warehouse and I could barely walk because the aching was getting so bad. And I was told to go home. And I went to the doctor, and obviously they wanted to have a look to see what the matter was.

00:09:24:18 – 00:09:45:12
That's fine. Dick out. And then he said, oh, actually, can you can you go and lay down on the bed and pull your trousers down to your ankles and stuff, for fuck's sake? Sure. Cos I could do that. So I went over, he put the, the, I put the kind of curtain across. So when he came in to see me, it was pitch black.

00:09:45:18 – 00:10:06:14
Couldn't see anything down by my trousers because I'd gone behind the curtain, right, laid on the bed and he'd pulled the curtain across. So it was now dark in this little curtained off there. How dark? Very dark. I really, really dark. Almost pitch black. Dark. And then he pulled the lamp from the wall and clicked it on. So spotlight.

00:10:06:19 – 00:10:30:08
So there was a spotlight on this tiny, shriveled brown penis with pubes everywhere. And I was just look down and say, oh my God, it was fucking. What a state. What a light. Just it's not, it's not brown. Nah, I never you're going to say that ain't brown, is it. What color is it? It's very dark brown.

00:10:30:10 – 00:10:57:13
Really. I've seen it. I mean, you save it a lot of times. Black based. I wouldn't say black because, the night I see, like, Band of Brothers playing tunes high is quite midnight. Waves surfing through to daylight breaks. Rhythm of different ways. Love of music I we prayed with our tongues in cheek band as I we like to speak.

00:10:57:15 – 00:11:06:12
And yeah, times change. But no matter what the bond remains. Promise.

00:11:06:14 – 00:11:29:22
Hello and welcome to lives. Anonymous is episode 72. I'm Ricky, he's Flav two best mates. One main topic we answer your life dilemmas and confessions and I'll feature something only you know. And everything remains anonymous. Always. So sit back, relax and enjoy the podcast. Why is it that this is slightly darker colored than the body always? Is it the blood that's in it?

00:11:29:24 – 00:11:52:00
I don't know, it's I always remember that when we went to my first last holiday, Tenerife, someone was having a shower. Obviously you go in and I pull the curtain across and you have your disposable camera and you take a photo of them. Yeah, of course you do. And when they developed what I thought it was might say, of course you do.

00:11:52:02 – 00:11:59:12
I've never known anyone to take a picture of a man's penis as much as you.

00:11:59:14 – 00:12:26:19
Yeah. That's that. Yeah, that that does ring true if you true. Loads of mine. Yeah. That is 100% true. Hundred percent true. What's it about? You are. What's it you were in? We were in, Brussels. We were, we were. What a lovely, lovely romantic. Yeah. Was. But my mate, he, white guy and his his penis was very brown.

00:12:26:19 – 00:12:51:19
Yeah. Very powerful. Yeah. What's that? I mean, like, I can't imagine, like you're. Cause you're very fair. So I couldn't imagine, like, it's yours. Like you seen it is. Yeah, I would say it's more like. It's such a opaque, like, I think.

00:12:51:21 – 00:13:12:10
Dear me. Why is that? I don't know, it's the blood flow. Blood flow? Yeah, it must be because, like, it's not like it's getting a suntan. It's the most hidden coming up thing. So I've got no idea. It's quite like there I am. I'm going. No, I'm going to Wales this weekend. But you can go see my cousin.

00:13:12:12 – 00:13:40:04
She lives in Wales and they're thereabouts. Bridgend. Never been there, I always remember, I don't know if I'm making this up but I swear like Bridgend in Wales had like the serious the highest suicide rates. Yeah. So she lives. Yeah. Yeah. So so so I always think of that because my brother lives in Pembrokeshire and we drive past Bridgend on the way there.

00:13:40:04 – 00:14:01:03
Yeah, yeah, yeah. But there was a spy. I don't think it's like they're not still doing it. I think it was like this like two years, like 13 kids took their own lives. Yeah. It's amazing fucking what sinks into your head. I've never been to Wales. I've been to Pembrokeshire to get a ferry across to Ireland, and I've done that twice.

00:14:01:05 – 00:14:22:19
But I've never stopped in Wales, so I don't know if this. Am I being silly to think that they it's going to be markedly different. You know, when I go into shops, am I going to hear a thick Welsh accent. Not in not, not in the South. No. Like you go down to Pembrokeshire and you can barely know you're in Wales.

00:14:22:19 – 00:14:49:07
There are some people with Welsh accents, but it's mostly English down there, right? Okay, so loads of holiday second homes and people go down there and live in Pembrokeshire. But there are some. But like for example, my brother Alex, he's the partner Tilly, she's from Pembrokeshire. But you wouldn't tell that she's from Wales or she was born there, right.

00:14:49:09 – 00:15:13:18
Yeah. But you go other places, you go further north and then it's like proper thick and into the valleys. Yeah. That, that, that, that. And that's what I want some of that. My granddad was brought up, in, in Wales and he, when he died, he would say, he'd say when he was alive, you'd say, when I die, you can throw me off Barmouth Bridge from Barmouth Bridge.

00:15:13:20 – 00:15:23:08
And Barmouth was where he grew up. And Barmouth has a famous pretty infamous bridge. It's quite what, the viaduct.

00:15:23:10 – 00:15:47:06
What do you know? What did you say about that, mate? It's fucking beautiful. It's. I don't know if it's a viaduct. It's just the bridge that goes across the river. Yeah, yeah, with the railway on it. Yeah, but a viaduct is is what carries the cross River water would. Yeah, that's what that would be. I don't mean it's just the bridge is a bridge.

00:15:47:08 – 00:16:03:24
Yeah, it is a bridge. And it does have a, it does have a railway on it. Yeah. Yeah yeah, yeah. So yeah Barmouth Viaduct. Yeah. When. Oh it is a viaduct. Yeah. You're right. Yeah. Yeah. Sorry. My bad, my bad I so I may have a box baby. So you know about that. Was it you into viaduct.

00:16:04:01 – 00:16:26:04
Yeah. Me you make something new. So you know about my peripheral neuropathy. And I know that you know that viaduct. So, So. Yeah. So when you go out, when you're. When I die, you can throw me off Barmouth Bridge. And like, when he died, we had him cremated before. Let's go and spread his ashes at Barmouth Bridge.

00:16:26:06 – 00:16:47:09
It's quite tricky process, spreading ashes because it's quite important. It's the body of your grandfather that looks like. It's like just come out of a fucking wood burner. Yeah. And, in my head, I thought the best way to do it would be to twist it. So the roof was at the root, so the lid was just coming at off.

00:16:47:11 – 00:17:06:01
And then I didn't want to tip it to go over everybody. Yeah, but what I did, it kind of slipped from my hands. And the whole UN went over the side of the bridge, and just hit the rocks below and just exploded.

00:17:06:03 – 00:17:28:00
So that romantic notion of him drifting through the air, right? Yeah. Yeah, yeah, that's where he played. He just fucking hit the rocks below and exploded. That is. Yeah. And I said to the man, it's like I met your friend, the childhood friend. And I said, What's Barmouth like? And he goes, Barmouth. If you shot a bullet up the high street, you wouldn't let anybody.

00:17:28:01 – 00:17:50:21
That's what he said. Oh, so it's just it's not for them. It's nothing. Then I went there. No one there, no nothing there. Just feel free. Well she's I'm hanging around I always remember, Tottenham. Half time some lady comes running down the stairs looking a bit shifty. Looks to the left, looks to her right. There's no stewards.

00:17:50:23 – 00:18:13:17
She gets an urn from inside her jacket and as the top starts up, ending it on the pitch. And then we're. We laughing because we know what's going on. She spread in the air, then. Yeah. And then the wind picks up. All starts going all over us. Row two. I've got someone's dead relative in my eyes just trying to watch Spurs versus Sunderland.

00:18:13:19 – 00:18:33:24
Yeah, this is fucking ninja. What's going on? You know, she can just contact the club and they can arrange for this stuff. Oh, people don't care, do they? They just think if I do it quickly no one's going to mind. No, it's going to kick up anything. I fucking ashy my hair. No I mean terrible, terrible is terrible.

00:18:34:01 – 00:19:13:08
Today we are going to be talking about heels you would die on. Right. And to. For anyone that doesn't know what this actually means, it's issues that people feel very strongly about and refuse to back down from, often leading to heated debates. Now I want to kick this off. Now I've got three of my own, which we'll go into, but to like the touch paper on this discussion, we've been sent a voice note and we're going to play that voice note right now.

00:19:13:11 – 00:19:40:24
Oh. Oh, yes. Hello, lads. I wanted to leave your voice note about the dying on the Hill, thing, because it's something I've. I've had for years. And much to the annoyance and chagrin of my, wife, my sister, female friends, anyone that I've told this to. But but I strongly believe it. And I'm going to die on the hill.

00:19:41:01 – 00:20:01:24
Which is, if you're a woman, your wife, or your long term girlfriend of your partner, and you live with a guy when he gets home from work, assuming that you have the kind of relationship where he goes to work and you're looking after the kids and you're at home, right? So, you know, with that caveat.

00:20:02:01 – 00:20:23:22
If you're at home and he gets in, no matter how bad your day's been, no matter what you've done in terms of having to look after the kids, just put it to one side, just pocket, let it get in the house, don't attack him with talking. Just let him get in. Make him a cup of tea, give him a beer or anything like that.

00:20:23:24 – 00:20:49:24
Just let get in the house, give him 20 minutes, then talk to him. That'll make the difference. That that. And also, there's one other thing. I mean, this is controversial, but it's, it's a truth. I'm just speaking truth. There's no judgment. Is. No, it's not an opinion. This is a fact. Make sure you suck his dick at least, at least once every two weeks.

00:20:50:01 – 00:21:07:23
You could go more frequently, or you could go slightly less. But don't leave it for longer than a month. Sarcastic. Make him a cup of tea. You haven't got to do anything else. That is it. That's your marriage. The guy will never, ever cheat on you. The guy will never, ever argue with you. The guy is putty in your hands.

00:21:07:23 – 00:21:19:03
It's easy. Suck a dick. Make a cup of tea. Thanks, lads. Much love. Love the pod upstairs.

00:21:19:05 – 00:21:41:06
So, That's it. Apparently soccer. They can make a cup of tea. Yeah, that'll get you through, get you through the day. Now, I just want to say this is the people's podcast. You submit whatever you want, you send in your voice next. We absolutely love it. If someone's listening to this and they want to retort, send in a voice note.

00:21:41:06 – 00:22:04:18
We'll play it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You think that. Yeah, yeah. That's good. Yeah. What a show. And what if it's a, I mean if it's oh what if it's two blokes, two gay blokes who work both full time jobs, they just get over each other's days.

00:22:04:20 – 00:22:27:06
Yeah, that sounds all right. Yeah. They just 69 straight away in a kitchen. They know what each other need. Yeah. Yeah, that's what I think actually. You know what I think like the guy relationship is peak relationship isn't it. Yeah it is. It really is. It's just it's yeah. Yeah it's good. But now what do you fancy a blowjob?

00:22:27:08 – 00:22:35:03
Of course a do you know this. Yeah. Do you fancy. Well yeah. Yeah. Why are you asking?

00:22:35:05 – 00:22:56:05
We're gay. This is a superpower. Yeah. Okay. Well, we just suck each other all the time. Yeah, I'd love to know, actually, can I please. I'd love to know. Like. Is that right? So you can't. You're not there. No, I well, you know, like it in terms of male and male. When I say gay, I'm just thinking about male and male.

00:22:56:07 – 00:22:59:23
Yeah. Are they.

00:23:00:00 – 00:23:22:21
Are they more sexually active? Because there's two men who, you know, the stereotype is they're always on, which isn't true, by the way, but men always on in general or gay men always on. So the, the, the stereotype would be that women kind of want sex less than men. That's the stereotype. It's not always the case. But that's that's not always the case.

00:23:22:21 – 00:23:47:21
But it is. Yeah, yeah. So do if is it then the case that there are more blowjobs in a male, a male relationship than there are in a heterosexual relationship? I would say 20% more. Yeah. I would like to know. I would like to know how many more. We must be gay. We must. They must be at least 50 gay men listening to this.

00:23:47:23 – 00:24:12:22
50. Yeah. Like if what if 1 in 10 people are gay, right? Yeah. Yeah. Well, more than 50. Wow. Yeah, I, yeah, we definitely want to hear hear from you. Yeah. I'm not trying to be offensive. I just want to know the answer. No, no, no, I it's not an easy defensive thing to say. Is there more archers going down in a in a, relationship of what?

00:24:12:24 – 00:24:36:06
What is, what does this mean? Is what do you say? Is there. Yeah. Archers getting archers. What? I don't know where that would come from. I think it's the sound, isn't it? Can sometimes I stop, right? I might be wrong. No no no no no, that's that's good too. Well, I learned it from. I knew about it already, but I learned it all also from listening to unknown team music.

00:24:36:08 – 00:24:49:00
Right. Okay. Good. What does actors mean? Because it's a slang term for a woman who's particularly gifted at or frequently performs fellatio.

00:24:49:02 – 00:25:17:15
Good, good. I'm going to start to use that from now on. The debate about how do you feel about the this hill, like the walking in the door give you guy 20 minutes. Don't you know don't come at him. Don't talk to him to be there. Let him decompress to it's, everyone different. I think it's two way to binary.

00:25:17:15 – 00:25:40:02
I want to speak to my wife when she comes in. Yeah, I look, I, I know that my relationship is so calm compared to some other relationship that and we've not got kids running around that. I when I met my wife, she had willingly were four and six respectively, so. Well, guess we did have that kids running around.

00:25:40:06 – 00:26:06:07
But because she's so calm, I'm quite lucky in that. So I want to talk to her when I get in. I think she would much rather she's like a chilled out bloke. Not a lot. Not, Energy is like a demon needs a bit like that, I would imagine. I'm, you know, by doing this podcast, I feel like where he's been the light and where the women in our relationship.

00:26:06:09 – 00:26:26:01
But no, like the women, there's, the kind of the the guys that just get on with it and we're like, oh, they they love me. Yeah, we're needy. And I'll just touch us. All we want is to be touched. Oh, hey, Patrick, just why don't you touch? I'm in my office upstairs, and I see this. I hear that dull guy.

00:26:26:01 – 00:26:47:09
I fly down those stairs. How is your day? Well, you can do it. Yeah. She's just like, yeah. All right. Good. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. How about you? What you need to do. What you need to do is just let her be rich. Just give us some. Give us some space. Go down on. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:26:47:11 – 00:27:05:16
It's. I've seen this stuff online. This stuff about. Leave it. Leaving your man. Let him decompress. If he's outside, sitting in the car is because he needs a moment to kind of transition from work to home life. I can understand that. I can, yeah, I can understand that. To be honest, I don't think it's a prerequisite for a blow job.

00:27:05:18 – 00:27:34:08
I don't think all it takes to keep a man happy is a blow job and a cup of tea when you come home. However, it probably does go quite a long way. Yeah, I would say it would go a long way, but yeah, it's not that I wouldn't say it's to be a window, because I know it's not how much I can say about this, but I do know people that, I think they, they're very sexual.

00:27:34:14 – 00:27:57:21
Sexual guys, no matter how many blowjobs that their wives gave them. I don't think it's going to. Well, if they didn't say, hey. Yeah. So I'm not I'm not did satiate them. Yeah. I'm not like super I don't know, there's no part of me wants to go and that needs to be satisfied by that elsewhere. I'm fine.

00:27:57:23 – 00:28:42:11
Yeah. Wasn't I say, though, we with them. The kind of the decompression part when on the other side of it. When my Mrs.. And even like just the flip side of it. But when we had our children there is a 22 month age gap between them. Yeah. Now, if I'm at work and my missus at home with two very young babies during dinner, and you know what, what would normally happen is if, if when my partner is at home and doing the dinner and the house chores and stuff.

00:28:42:11 – 00:29:04:08
Right. And then I come in from work, if I go give me 20 minutes. The other hot day, she's been in the house with two babies all day and then doing all those chores and stuff, right? So often when I got in, I open the door and she would be there and she would just give me one of the kids.

00:29:04:11 – 00:29:26:23
I be like, fucking deal with that. And they're like, all right, fine. I know where I'd know where you're at at the moment. So it's not as easy as to be like, I've had a hard day. You've just been chilling out at home. Do you know what I mean? Yeah. With babies is different. Not to mention the constant and is the constant attention and you require.

00:29:27:00 – 00:29:56:14
It would be exhausting watching out. Imagine. Yeah. What do you think if a woman's at home break that and a man's work in that you should have dinner on the table when you get home. No. But if she's not working, not doing anything, I'm just sitting down watching Band of Brothers. She. I wouldn't say she act like I get in and it's steam is coming off it on the table.

00:29:56:16 – 00:30:36:08
Yeah. Do you know, I mean, not one of those ones, but, I would expect there to be a plan if they should be careful. And they should be like, you should be in the slow cooker, or there should be something happening. Because what? Like most people, when you get home from work, you're you're hangry, famished. And there isn't, if we're if we're starting as soon as I get for the door, if we're starting from ground zero of just turning the gas on and nothing's been chopped and nothing's been done, the, I would be like, like, how's your day been?

00:30:36:08 – 00:30:56:14
Just fishing. All right, well, so you get home from work and there isn't a knob turned not. Yeah. Oh, boiled. Yeah. Yeah, I know, but the thing is, is, well, I'm an adult. I can buy stuff, I can, I can cook for myself. Really. It's not down to her. But this. Does this plan exist, Rick? Does this plan exists?

00:30:56:14 – 00:31:16:24
Whoever's home needs to have started something. How does it work for you? Yeah, I mean, I mean, if you're at home and it should be. I'm working from home, but I'm working, so it's not that I've got an hour to stay. Real work, is it, Rick Israel work? I have to sit on my computer to do stuff. It's not real.

00:31:17:01 – 00:31:42:07
I can't, I can't drag. I've been doing this for six years. Right? It's not real work. Let's be honest, all right? It ain't. It's not in an office. You can stop any time and start the dinner and nothing. Yeah, yeah, they should happen more often. So I don't touch the day. Money is at work. I hope that you have dinner ready for when you get home.

00:31:42:09 – 00:32:03:16
She gets in at half free dinner time as an out there. There's an out there. 1903. That's way too early. No, but what I do is send you home. You home together? Which which isn't really, it's not really help. But if there's any parents out there that are listening that are the dinner makers.

00:32:03:18 – 00:32:25:05
I get stuff out to defrost a mixture of things to defrost. So it gives us choice. Like at the moment we've got some mince beef, we've got some bacon and we've got some chicken breast out defrosting that. So that means the days. Yeah. Yeah. So three days maybe. So if I was to, you know, make a spaghetti bolognese and people walking.

00:32:25:05 – 00:32:48:01
Oh for fuck's sake. I don't want polos. We at that last, you know, if that happens then no one eats and you've got to remake another dinner. So by getting those ingredients out, at least I can say who wants chicken curry tonight? Nah, not for that. Who wants a chili. Yeah. Let's have a chili. So like defrosted and we can get cracking like good stuff.

00:32:48:03 – 00:33:11:12
You know, a little bit of planning, but obviously I could do a lot more in the cooking department. Really? I should do a lot more. Well, I don't you I'm the fake because it's not, it's it's because you're, you think you're the man and that's not your role. No no no no no no no no no. So I see what you're doing here.

00:33:11:14 – 00:33:32:00
And so I, I'm working. Yeah. No no no no no no. We've established it's not work. Let's just keep the cook. It's not work. Right. And let's also establish something. You think you think how is this? Turn around. And to me, you bastard, I'm trying to get into your psyche. What's going on? Why aren't you cooking? There's a reason why.

00:33:32:00 – 00:33:53:01
You know. Cooking. What is it? Yeah, it's because I'm working. Because I'm uploading videos. You know, at the moment, trying to sort this patron out, constantly working towards that. You can stop at 430. I know, but every time that I stop, it's that I feel like I'm losing. This is your is is is your miss is not working.

00:33:53:01 – 00:34:15:23
Then at that point no, it's half past phrases. So it comes down to it comes down to what hangs between your legs. Is that what is no you for? I never took you for a a misogynist. Generally written really, even for 20 years. That's the that's the thing about the top of my list, I think. Look, if you're both you're both working through the day.

00:34:15:24 – 00:34:39:16
She gets home at 330. You have to go. That's kind of fine. She stop working by that point. So you're right. Yeah. Yeah, I think that's fine. Generally speaking, the how's that the how dinner is, distribute it in this house two days. I do it for days. Day money does it. Yeah. One days pizza today. That's all right.

00:34:39:18 – 00:35:01:04
Yeah. That's fine. I should be, but, well, that's only one day. It's only one day out. Why don't you just don't take an extra day on? Because I want to say that I want to, But you. Because you do most of the cooking in your Aston. Yeah. No. So whoever's at home will cook. So Ollie gets finishes the work.

00:35:01:05 – 00:35:29:12
She finishes at 430 today. I probably won't be back from the office until maybe 530. So she would have cooked dinner without question. We don't even have to talk about it. She knows. She knows. It's got well, it's got the steam piping hot. No, it's on that table to say the opposite of that. Actually, she knows that when she gets home from work at 9:00, that I've got dinner hot ready for her when she gets home at 9:00 at night.

00:35:29:12 – 00:35:54:22
Every night. Really? I've never missed one unless I. Unless I think she's working and she's cooking. So the last thing she wants to do is fucking cook. And I like it, Rache. I like having something for her to eat when she gets home after finishing work. But also like cooking, it's good. It's need something to do. Stop. I enjoy cooking.

00:35:54:24 – 00:36:10:24
Just don't do it. Make it enough. Really. And, don't enjoy shoving shit in the oven. I'm waiting for the timer to go down like that's boring. You don't want to do that. But do you know what I did the other day? I had a, a delayed a. And I don't eat meat. I don't eat any food.

00:36:10:24 – 00:36:28:18
I'm cooking. But that's that's a side of what you fucking feeling, boy, if you're. What do you do? Sorry. Fillet the wrong way. Fillet sake bones out. Right. It's, I butterfly. Sorry, I'm not what I meant. Say, butterfly. The chicken breast. This is this. I'm not. I'm not talking about block. I'm a massive chef. It's just I've never done this before.

00:36:28:20 – 00:36:49:01
Yeah. And I was like, I wonder if I could do that. The butterfly, the chicken breast stuffed it with mozzarella, pepperoni. Not pepperoni, of course. The sausage, the spicy sausage, the pepperoni, treats her sweet. So treats her. Yeah. A bit paprika. And then. And then, and then shut it and then sort of put a toothpick in there.

00:36:49:01 – 00:37:05:10
Just bake it. That's it. That's what it is. Oh, good. But she doesn't know what's come in. You don't know what's coming. I'll find out the internet and do it as a surprise. Rick, you're keeping guessing. You know what? You don't tell her that. Oh, sometimes you ask for stuff, but not all the time. Oh, and it was surprise.

00:37:05:10 – 00:37:30:23
Oh, I like that. I like that we're in Iceland. Did I get, like, do you have any hills that you would die on? The one things that you are just like, I can't, I'm not I people that stop and this is just something that gets on my nerves. But the hill I die on is what I'm allowed to do to them is, if they're in the middle of a path or that they stop and have a conversation and the world has to move around them.

00:37:31:00 – 00:37:40:15
So the hill that I die on, you should be allowed to sledgehammer no them down the back of the head and nothing happens to you, I.

00:37:40:17 – 00:37:54:15
So hard it it can swing it as hard as you can. They need to if they, if they stop and have a come they they need to get out of the way to make sure that people have. So. So it happened the other day. I'm walking the dog. Right. Frankie's can be a little bit of right. I've got him with me.

00:37:54:15 – 00:38:15:24
That's why I'm looking at you. Good boy. Little fucker. Yeah. He's, He's can be a bit reactive to other dogs. Not necessarily aggressive, but he loves to pull around them. Kind of. When he's playing, he makes this horrible sound like there's. I sounds like he's trying to eat NBA. Right. You're fucking standing down there with you little fucking Chihuahuas.

00:38:15:24 – 00:38:35:01
And you didn't hear the Pomeranians and your fucking Yorkshire terriers. These little shit dogs. Shit dogs, right? Yeah. And you stand in the middle of the path and it's mud everywhere. And the only way I can get past you is where you're exactly standing. And you can see me because you've just looked at me and you've gone back to your conversation.

00:38:35:03 – 00:39:02:10
And so what the. What do you want me to walk through the mud? Is that what we're saying here? Right here on the back of the head? Disrespectful. That's the hill I want to die on. I'm allowed to slide it. Sledgehammer people. I can't bear people that this is going to sound really, unromantic. But couples that hold hands when they walk and they're taken up right by the line of the path.

00:39:02:10 – 00:39:28:13
And I have to walk round you. Plot. I need to get past you. Just walking slow. And I did. And get on my fucking way. Wooden sledgehammer them punch in the back of the it maybe, but not a yeah it breaks basic grammar as well is but it's a deeply offensive if you can't be forced to put punctuation in your sentences when you're talking to me.

00:39:28:15 – 00:39:36:13
Yeah. I, I mean, from your background as well. I think that would.

00:39:36:15 – 00:40:07:15
Yeah, that would rank with me as well. And. Yeah. Well, this is, this is really going to put the cat amongst the pigeons for this one. But I firmly believe that milk first. And your tea. Well yeah I don't I don't have to. We don't have to go for this. Oh don't know what you talking about it. Yeah.

00:40:07:15 – 00:40:32:00
There's a little logistic element to it that doesn't make sense. What would go down. Well because you the strength for your tea is defined by it is created by how much milk you're putting into the water. There is judge. That's not there. Is that right? But you can always add more milk. So you can add you can choose milk already and you can strain the tea.

00:40:32:00 – 00:40:52:16
But we don't put it fucking. You don't fill it up off. You might slip, you might slip. You got Parkinson's. You can't necessarily judge it, can you. So think about them. Milk goes in first with the tea bag and then and then the hot water. And that way you can stew it to the strength of your tea that you like.

00:40:52:16 – 00:41:34:03
And the milk, you can chop it up with milk if you need more milk. And I remember, I know I've got and I've got a link to this as well. There is a scientific study that showed that the compounds of the enzymes in the milk, if you add, I think it's if you, if you add if you don't, if you add milk to boiling hot water, it makes it slightly more bitter straightaway, but with the teabag in with the milk and then adding the hot water, something to do with the temperature, it slightly lessens and the enzymes don't change and it doesn't have that bitter taste to it.

00:41:34:03 – 00:41:57:01
Sounds up to science. So scientific. Me. I've got the link and I'll post it. It just doesn't make any sense. Yeah, it doesn't make any sense. All you need to know is that milk first, and I know I don't care if you do it British and people are very kind of devout in their beliefs that yeah, that milk has to go last.

00:41:57:03 – 00:42:18:07
But you, you also as well, if you leave, if you do milk loss and you leave the tea bag stew stewing it, guess it's weird. Fucking film on the top. Yeah. If you leave too long, but. Well I will often if I, if I, if we're going to do teas controversial stuff on teas like people I down. I don't want to leave the tea bag in while I drink it.

00:42:18:09 – 00:42:39:03
Yeah. My missus does that. I find I often I'm emptying tea cups of tea and the tea bag would just. I want the tea to be as strong as possible. Like the color of a £0.02 piece. That's that's the color of the tea I like. Oh fucking hell, I don't really like. I didn't milk at all. Like coffee, I drink black, I drink black coffee because I don't like I don't know what add milk adds to it.

00:42:39:03 – 00:42:57:12
I quite like bitter tastes like I like Starbucks. People going to hate this as well. But I like Starbucks coffee because it's bitter. And people say the bitter coffee is like the lesser quality of the coffee bean or something along those. The bitterness. I don't know what it is, but it's a Starbucks. You shit coffee, apparently, but I quite like that.

00:42:57:12 – 00:43:23:07
Bitterness is is what I'm into it, actually. Vaguely. Pancake day yesterday. Did you have pancakes? That didn't even give it? Only did vibes, I didn't bother. Yeah. I was saying to my kids that we would say no. Like, hey, I don't know why we're talking about who's having pancakes and paper. Having, my kids said to me, what would you have on your pancake?

00:43:23:09 – 00:43:42:13
But I personally. Yeah. And and I said, well, he would love pancakes because he doesn't like sweet stuff. No, I love what. And I was like, yeah, the chocolate spread you're putting on, you wouldn't have that. No. Oh, the sugar in that he wouldn't have that and that I really, really I was like, yeah, that's exactly right.

00:43:42:14 – 00:43:55:00
That's weird. Wouldn't eat that. Would need that. I don't actually discuss me. I know, I'll tell you what it to. I bought some chocolates for the other day. They were.

00:43:55:02 – 00:44:13:14
But nothing pie. Chocolates. But they were the size of, you know, you buy a box of chocolates. Yeah. And I bought them in Sainsbury's and they would have those key lime pie, those, these other. And honestly, I had one of them and I was like, this is the most sensational thing I've ever seen in my life. Oh. So yeah, I actually like I went back for another one.

00:44:13:16 – 00:44:30:12
It was, well, what? Chocolate where they look like milk chocolate. But it also had like benefit fill in and like a crunch on the top is what was it Brown. Was it just Sainsbury's. Brown. I can't remember. But I'll try and find and I'll let you know because it was really good. Can I give you my, other cup?

00:44:30:12 – 00:44:58:21
I've got a couple more here too. Yeah, yeah. Go on then. Breaking bad is distinctly average CV. Hahahahahahaha. I will die on that hill. I remember you said it on a previous part and people were on this point. Yeah, yeah, yeah, explain it to me what I'm missing. Because I can tell you what I'm not missing is good writing, likable characters that you can relate to and champion.

00:44:58:23 – 00:45:24:13
What right is the most detestable character I've ever seen on the TVs? Wife's a cunt. He the only one of these sort of sort of redeemable is these disabled son. All right. Yeah. And Jesse, who is lovely but broken, like he's decent. I just love watching, garnishes. We've got once you pass the gimmick of a high school teacher becoming a drug dealer.

00:45:24:13 – 00:45:48:13
All original for just a pile of shit. Really, mate? Six out of ten, five out of ten that most. And I won't, I won't be I cannot be swayed on that. That. That's good. No, no, that is good. Because a lot of people are. They would say it's their top, their top watch. I genuinely judge them. If that was the case, I'd go like, you got what you like.

00:45:48:15 – 00:46:17:15
Yeah. That's good. I like what you like, but I think less of you. Sorry, I, I enjoyed it, but I couldn't really fully enjoy it. Just felt like I was watching. It was like crack because every scene was like this enormous cliffhanger. It felt like my heart was like racing. I couldn't really ever sit and enjoy it. It was like a five out of ten page turner.

00:46:17:15 – 00:46:37:10
Swap out ten. But that's fine, fine, fine. That's fine. I, I've got another one as well. And I think that you are going to be annoyed with this one. But I,

00:46:37:12 – 00:46:46:22
And a great tradition, the great British tradition. The Sunday roast must only be in on a Sunday.

00:46:46:24 – 00:47:03:09
But all the trimmings and all that, like, I just, I think because it's such, it's a lot of it's a fantastic dinner and is it's made for Sunday. You need to be off. You know, you can't do it. You can't do a roast. Yeah. I'm with Ricky. I'm with you. You need I wouldn't mind. Yeah. And Saturday you don't feel right.

00:47:03:09 – 00:47:24:05
So night and Sunday is a lazy day. You can just chill out and. Yeah, yeah, I'm with you, mate. It was Sunday. I saw this, it was American journalist, and he was like, you motherfuckers are crazy. You do Thanksgiving every Sunday. Basically. You make you make the Thanksgiving meal every Sunday. I don't know some differences, but more or less, it's a roast dinner.

00:47:24:05 – 00:47:47:01
Yeah. What what did you make of that? TikToker? The what's his name? Is it famous? Keith. Keith Hill. Keith. Keith. He so he's basically he goes, we tried it, we raided it. That's exactly what he is. He, he goes we we we we tried it, we ate it, we raided it. And he's like the biggest food reviewer on TikTok.

00:47:47:01 – 00:48:06:10
Massive millions of views. Yeah, that rings a bell. Actually. Big controversy because he's come over to the UK to do a tour of the UK. So he gets recommendations from normal people. Yeah. Which you shouldn't do, by the way, because normal people voting Donald Trump. Yeah. Well let the you know, that's not a good example because if you like Donald Trump it's up to you.

00:48:06:10 – 00:48:32:12
Right. Normal people, you know, it can be swayed into making bad decisions. Two morons can outvote a genius, right? That's what normal people can do. Yeah. So what he's done, he's taken recommendations. This guy and gone to eat in the UK. Do you know what he said? The fry up was okay, but it needs to be seasoned.

00:48:32:14 – 00:48:52:14
You're like, what are you talking about? Like, oh, there is so much flavor in a fry up without adding salt and pepper. You don't need anything more than what you've got there. And he's in each bit of the fry up one by one, a bean. It's gonna, like what? You did it, I saw that. Do you know what?

00:48:52:14 – 00:49:08:11
That's that. That's exactly what I saw. And wasn't it kind of looked like he was at hotel, like. Yeah, he wasn't in a greasy spoon. Yeah, it wasn't a greasy spoon. The right greasy spoon as well. Like you guys, you enjoy caff, what are you saying about the fry? But did you write a fry up and enjoy. And Tottenham.

00:49:08:13 – 00:49:29:07
Well, it's it it serves its purpose. But I wouldn't say it's like a goatee. Try up. Right, right, right out of ten. I'd probably say it's a solid six. A solid six. Solid six. Yeah. If that's a six, I could make a ten at home. And I don't even eat meat, mate. You probably could home fry ups over, everything.

00:49:29:07 – 00:49:57:16
Really? Everything. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. And the same with roast in. You go to a car and stuff. Yeah, I like it. You know, you, you got, you know, hitting all the right notes with roast potatoes and Yorkshire puddings and stuff like that. But a home roast on a Sunday. Do you know, I'm going to say this and you're right, Rick, as you're saying this because, friend of the show and friend of ours in real life, Jesse, she is married to Sammy.

00:49:57:18 – 00:50:21:19
And Sammy makes, I think I would say, her, with my wife, Ollie probably make the best fry up, but my best roasting is. I've ever had. Really? Yeah. And they. There's no way you can go in any restaurant this better than what we get. I don't think I've never experienced one. Like what? The way that the food they're eating is, like, this is top tier food.

00:50:21:21 – 00:50:39:09
Yeah. And the. Jess, if you all listen this, do tell us that because I'm sure it does make her feel good, but she she's really, she really good cook along and then and and so I wonder how often I eat I go out to eat and think this is better than what I could do at home. And it isn't often.

00:50:39:09 – 00:51:00:09
Yeah. And I'll pay if you pay a fortune, like if you're going to any, any place Indian place, obviously you can't much that you might be able to but I only Ollie makes a great curry. But if you go to the showroom there's levels to it. Right. But yeah, the olive color is insane as well.

00:51:00:11 – 00:51:33:06
But there's very, very, very rarely you go out to a restaurant. You think this is much better than whatever I can cook? No, I don't think I've ever had a roast in. And I thought that this is better than any ones I've had at home. It's just not made with that love and dedication. And, you know, I mean, not so that is that is absolutely a hill that I would die on the Sunday roast to obviously be on a Sunday, because I do see some midweek people fill it in about now.

00:51:33:07 – 00:51:47:01
Just I won't be having it. I just will not be having it. I've got another one that's going to want people up. Yeah. Come on. Especially like it's going to want their American American listeners up I think. Yeah. Going.

00:51:47:03 – 00:51:52:01
I won't have an American tell me that British food is shit.

00:51:52:03 – 00:52:11:09
Yeah, I agree, because if you're going to be as generalized as that, then we're going to just generalize about your food, which is full of preservatives and sugar, sugar and all that shit that's legally not even allowed to be sold in our country. Yeah. So let's just lessen a generalization, and let's just approach and realize that every country has its pluses and its minuses.

00:52:11:11 – 00:52:35:08
Yeah. And just accept it for your experience. And don't come to London and join to an Angus steakhouse and go, that's British cuisine. Ain't no one in Britain near an Angus Think steakhouse, for fuck's sake. If you want to eat good steak, you go to Hawksmoor somewhere like that. Oh. By yourself? Yeah. Not Angus fucking Steakhouse. No one, no one from England has ever set foot into one of those.

00:52:35:10 – 00:53:06:17
We're often, spoken about that we we eat like we're still in war times. That's that's that's how people perceive the British cuisine, like stews and stuff like that. As I we're still in World War two, which I think is is harsh. It is actually the ash pit and also the British cuisines. One thing like in terms of like, you know, roasting a fish and chips is the obvious stuff.

00:53:06:19 – 00:53:26:12
There are amazing restaurants that aren't defined as English that you can get here. That's some of the best food in the world, right? But largely because of the type of country that England are, specifically London. And that's where most people is. London is probably the most culturally diverse, almost certainly the most culturally diverse place on on the planet Earth.

00:53:26:14 – 00:53:50:22
You won't find, you reckon? Yeah. Oh, yeah. You may. Actually, I think you might be right. You know, 100%, 100%. I don't think it's I don't, I don't think it's even I can't think of anywhere else. Maybe New York, maybe somewhere like that. But yeah, Britain in like in London you're going to me. And what has happened with the cuisine when you go is that you don't walk around looking for English restaurants.

00:53:50:22 – 00:54:16:13
You look, we walk around and you can pick and eat whatever you want, and it's the highest quality of that version you can find. Fine there. So I want amazing thing. Let's celebrate that multi cultural diversity. Yeah, totally. I've got I've got one more I want to get off my chest before we, go and then jump onto the next one.

00:54:16:15 – 00:54:47:08
People don't actually like running. I don't think people actually enjoy running. I think that there is a demon inside them. And when they go running, it, it just was up. That emotion that is trying to come out, it's like, is it called like self-flagellation? You know, when you whip yourself, I think that I think that's what runners do.

00:54:47:10 – 00:55:11:03
I think they feel something deep within them and they run and they torture themselves to keep the kind of keep their emotions intact. Like my I remember my, one of my old bosses that he would run and I could see behind his eyes. There were some demons there, but he said he enjoyed it. There wasn't. There was no enjoyment.

00:55:11:05 – 00:55:41:16
Yes, I think I think people are. They run to escape from something that's there, then dealing with, yeah, running is horrible. It is horrible. No one should enjoy it. No. They possible. No one enjoys running. It's fucking foul. I like to get what body? Because body. Our friend runs more than anyone else. I know what he gets out of it because he's at a point now, and I think he's built a composition in his body.

00:55:41:16 – 00:56:05:06
And his body so used to burning calories that he probably won't get it, probably as long as he sort of keeps up to a certain degree, he's not going to put on the way it was you had before. No, I mean, I think he has. What does he get from it? I think, and I don't want to this is this might sound bad, but, you know, pop psychology.

00:56:05:06 – 00:56:21:21
I think he has a fear of dying. And I feel like if he runs, he's doing his bit to keep himself in check. Do you know what I mean? Why did you say that? He said that before. He hasn't said that. But you do. You know what I think? I think he has. And I've just get that feeling.

00:56:21:23 – 00:56:46:23
And I when I've spoken to him about it as well, I like that's why people stay on top of not fitness. I get like people have enjoyment when they go to an aerobics class, to spin class or like a release of endorphins. Yeah, that's that's fine. That's great. And running as well. Oh, they go gym or they, you know, throwing iron and about whatever that that's I get that and I get the endorphins.

00:56:47:02 – 00:57:10:23
But running I've had the experience for an amount of time. I've gotten to run in and I've had like explosions of endorphins which run. I have had that, but not for like ten years. But what were you running away from? That's the real question. My fat body. Yeah, it's trying to probably. Yeah, probably another demons as well.

00:57:10:23 – 00:57:34:00
I'll look at pictures of me back then when I lost all that weight. I don't think I look good. I looked, I looked, I don't think I look good, I think I lost too much. Do you remember? I can send you some pictures. There was a moment where I lost tons away and yeah, I said, yeah, I think, I think I look at it now and I think in, like in yoga, I'd love to lose that way again and then look at me again.

00:57:34:02 – 00:58:01:12
I look horrible for I lost too much. I would say seven stone for one site, you know that. Okay. How much do you weigh? It's amazing. Right? I swear to God, I swear on my kids lives, right? That's how fucking serious swearing I am. I, I've looked back at a photo, an Instagram photo of me, and, you know, we were going to the football together.

00:58:01:14 – 00:58:20:05
I'd taken a selfie and I thought, I don't know why I look there. Yeah, I like the the white. For some reason, white always goes to my face straight away and then it comes off my face straight away. So I went on my heartbeat app to see what game it was to see the date. Guess how much I weighed?

00:58:20:07 – 00:58:42:17
11 stone for 11 stone for. There you go. Yeah, well. And that was the weight that I was. What was the guy for me? Happy? I think it was Tottenham. Everton. When? October 2022. Maybe it's two years ago. So he's still attainable. Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah. So you find I'm talking about ten years ago.

00:58:42:18 – 00:59:06:12
11 years ago I know I don't want to get there anyway, so. Right. Yeah. But but I've lost weight but I've got a I can is I'm not where I want to be I need to lose about another stone I think I, I've, I can get there for, for what I want to do. Yeah I've, I've started that point and now I've lost weight which I, I've lost about eight, 8 pounds.

00:59:06:12 – 00:59:13:12
So good for you, mate. Yeah. Yeah. Yes, I'm on the way I also.

00:59:13:14 – 00:59:42:08
I also, I think whenever I look at myself, I always it's hypercritical, but I'll, I'll end up at any point, I'll look at pictures of myself and think, I don't look good all the time. Yeah. I always, celebrates that. I, I have loads of, have like a, an album of, you know, that time where it's January, you're determined to lose that Christmas fat.

00:59:42:12 – 01:00:07:13
And not only the Christmas fat, it's the fact that led up to that fat anyway. So it's fat on fat. You're at your biggest and white is. And you do those photos in the mirror, the side profile, the stomach profile, that fat back, whatever it might be. Because you're going to do a comparison. So when it gets to July, take some more photos and see how much I've lost.

01:00:07:15 – 01:00:25:09
Oh, you have your body pictures. Let me have a look. And then I give up after about three weeks. So in my camera roll, it's just pictures of me being far different. Different years, none of it skinny from where I was determined to lose it. That's amazing. So it's just so fucking, Great. That's that's absolutely disgusting.

01:00:25:11 – 01:00:45:19
Right. Before we jump into the the next section at the of, do want to tell you that there is no dilemmas this week. No dilemmas. Everyone's great which is which is lovely. There's something only you know. It's called no cock, no coke.

01:00:45:21 – 01:01:31:02
Subject for next week or the topic for next week is a favorite British sayings and where they come from. Fill your boots. Daylight robbery. Let's have a gander. Or a butcher's. I get many a Australian DM's and emails because they don't understand some of the terms that we say, some of the stuff that they see on internet, and there's a lot of, I don't know if you see them on your social of Americans in England or English people in America, where they have different sayings and they just can't quite understand what people are saying.

01:01:31:04 – 01:01:56:15
So I thought we'd do a topic on the most said things that we say that no one really understands, and things that you that you like to say, which are kind of local to you. So if you have any sayings, wherever you're from that you have no idea what British people are saying or you don't know the context of them, send it in to lads.

01:01:56:17 – 01:02:11:12
Anon pod at gmail.com and we will answer all your sayings. Now we are going to jump across to something only you know.

01:02:11:14 – 01:02:17:21
Why something You know.

01:02:17:23 – 01:02:44:05
No cock and no coke. Just started listening to the part from the beginning. I was struggling to sleep tonight and usually in these situations I'd have a tug to send me off to sleep with a cheesy belly. But I've only been. But I've been good to myself and I've saved myself. Suddenly I remembered the pod. I was inspired by your suggestion of giving friends blowjobs.

01:02:44:07 – 01:03:07:06
So a download grinder I would have asked to mate. It was a bit awkward. So I got talking to this old chap who looked a bit of a silver fox and told me to come round to his for a blowjob. I was ten minutes away so off I went. But when I got there he texted me that he couldn't, that I couldn't come in because his roommate was there.

01:03:07:08 – 01:03:32:03
So we'd have to do it in my car instead. So I pulled forward. As I pulled forward the passenger seat of my the door of my three door fiesta to make room and waited patiently for my blowjob buddy. When he finally got in, he looked a bit older and fatter than his photos, and he absolutely stank of stale cigarettes.

01:03:32:05 – 01:03:53:11
To be fair to him, he was a man of his word and proceeded to suck my cock. It wasn't half bad. Yeah, there were no teeth involved and he had a solid technique, but the little guy was just put off by the cars going past and the rubbing of stubble up and down my shaft, so I couldn't get it up.

01:03:53:13 – 01:04:16:03
The mess. You suck. I didn't say anything, but I could sense he was disappointed as I'm a grower, not a shower, and I had sent him some well angled pictures of my dick with no lobe on in sight. We agreed to meet up again when either of us had a free house. He went back into his house and I pulled my jeans up and began the shameful drive home.

01:04:16:05 – 01:04:37:03
On the way home, I tried to get a cake from Mickey D's to take my mind off things, but when I tapped my phone on the reader, it asked me to insert my card, which I'd left at home. So I apologize to the poor minimum wage worker and drove home with no coke but full of poison and shame.

01:04:37:05 – 01:04:53:22
Now I'm back in bed, feeling guilty with a soppy, soft day, and I can feel a slight tingle from the abrasiveness of the old man's stubble, like an extra fine 240 grit sandpaper. Still.

01:04:53:24 – 01:05:14:02
Well, I heard they did say my cock was really tasty, so that's something, I suppose. And that is something I, I know, I mean, hey, there you go. I, what's his name?

01:05:14:04 – 01:05:40:19
I didn't know that. I suppose I'm naive, right? But I didn't know there was this big culture of men meeting up and sucking other. Yeah. And, I mean, I don't know this person. Why would you know about it, though? It's not. I know, I just thought I was a man of the world, but there is there is a lot of.

01:05:40:21 – 01:06:00:18
I mean, I don't know if this person is gay even. It just might have been a one off thing. Oh, I'm asking you, I didn't. When I read the story, I was like, hello mate. I would read this out, but it feels like you've made this up. He sent me screen grabs of the conversation he was having, growing the gentleman.

01:06:00:18 – 01:06:21:02
He was not making this up. I was like, did you to it? I was so I imagine I said I would read this out, but are you sure this is real? We just. And then he said, and he said back there was this great grabs. I was like, G, do you know he's right? I thought it might not be real.

01:06:21:04 – 01:06:39:14
Like when you when you was, when I was this and this was the bit when he was paying for his coke. Because I'm pretty sure when you're using your phone, it doesn't ever ask you to put your card in. Yeah. No, I just thought it might be. I guess that might be an America thing. I don't think that I would want a blowjob, so much so that I would find.

01:06:39:15 – 01:07:16:23
I think he's or I don't know. No. And then drive to his house and then just try and do it in someone you might call IndyCar. And even walking into a house you don't know. Yeah, yeah, I it's just tea. And the other submissions that we've had, people have walked into houses like glory House. Two people have just put their Dixons a house and they've walked into houses, been instructed to put that one, was instructed to put their dick for a house, was instructed to put their dick behind a curtain.

01:07:17:00 – 01:07:41:17
Yeah. I remember on this project. Yeah, yeah, yeah. This is I like this is why I'm like, I didn't know this happens. And even if I was well, I mean, I say if I was, I am straight, but I wasn't in a relationship and I wanted to hook up with someone like, would I be like, oh, let's go on.

01:07:41:19 – 01:08:00:23
I don't know what people don't like any more fashions, but it doesn't happen. I mean, suck me up. Yeah, because I don't think like, women are much less open to that. This is what I'm going back to, this conversation, this being in this pod. Yeah. With men. The reason why Grindr is much more promiscuous is because men are more up for it.

01:08:00:23 – 01:08:25:20
And that's what I'm saying is like, right, right, right, right. I'm in a gay relationship. Are you just sucking each other off? Because that's what you want. But what or do you get? Does it stop? I don't know, I don't know. That's that's the play someone if you're listening and you are gay, please email. Listen, we just want to know.

01:08:25:22 – 01:08:54:00
Obviously we're in. This is our 72nd episode. Not one name has ever been read out. Ever. You're in a safe space. And anyone else, if you're listening something of you know and dilemmas. If you've got something on your chest and you want to get it off and before if you've been apprehensive, if you've been a bit scared, if you think, can I really admit that?

01:08:54:04 – 01:09:12:19
Can I really talk about the skeletons in my closet? You can. And this is your platform, so send it into lads and on pod at gmail.com. And until then we will see you next Monday.

01:09:12:21 – 01:09:36:09
On the night, hazy light band of brothers playing tunes high as quiet midnight waves. Surfing through till daylight breaks. Rhythm of different ways. Love of music I. We prayed with our tongues in cheek. Band as I we like to speak. And yeah, times change. But no matter what the bond remains. Promise.
