They Think It's All Over - The Wrap Up #34

00:00 We're live! Welcome, it's Friday. Good Friday. Feels like a Saturday because that's when we start the day off. We're with The Wrap Up... You're with The Wrap Up I'm on The Wrap Up A dating dad will be joining us in just a second but we are celebrating the week that was all the highs, the lows, the fun bits and the crap bits and we are so glad to have you join us Roll Theme Welcome to Team Super Dad. Real dads creating their best lives ever, more time more money more fun you are not alone! You're on team super dad! Yo Glen good see ya it's good to be seen and making sure I'm still alive and not kind of locked away in some sort of cave waiting to rise after three days

00:50 These things do happen this time of year apparently. But anyway, welcome to the Wrap Up! You are here with myself Jonnie Jensen, team SuperDad Crew friends family members all around the world and joining us for the wrap up our distinguished guest Mr Glen a dating dad famous on Twitter for upsetting all kinds of people. That's how I roll or rather that's how i tweet So for those people that have joined us before, bloody good to have you back here. As you can see from Glen's scenery... well the very fact I'm mentioning it so you can see some of you will be listening on this podcast. It is good to have you. Please review subscribe share get our numbers up across the world we do have listeners across the world which is great 46% of our listeners are from America which is fabulous

01:37 and I absolutely know that everyone of our American listeners is listening to that thinking, what the fuck was that? Well thing is, I know that will be quite bad because if you say to the average American person do an English accent they go they basically pull out a

02:14 Mary Poppins type, knees up mother brown. Mary Poppins and you and you and you! Pretty much yeah but no I think I can hold my own in a bit of American accent You can imagine when you're in America when you've grown up as a teenager one of the things generally is like do you have McDonald's in England? And they say yes we have McDonald's and then they say Can you do an American accent? Well I'll give it a go But also, you know there's people watching Glen. There are people watching because we are live across YouTube Twitter Facebook even LinkedIn We are flipping bringing the tone down across LinkedIn but you know what some people that do business also do fun as well so if you're watching on LinkedIn bloody good to see One thing I keep forgetting is that we can see the comments coming in live and

03:12 Not that we get many, but sometimes I just ignore them completely. There's nothing worse than being ignored! When i was giving my new girlfriend... she's officially reached girlfriend status now. Have you had the G-spot? You've hit the G spot?! You've had the chat Yeah, well yeah pretty much. Whoa whoa no! Whoa whoa sweet child of mine have you had the sort of school playground will-you-be my girlfriend and can I be your boyfriend sort of chatty chat? Well it didn't come out in that kind of language but i did...I said I am referring to as my girlfriend is that okay

03:57 That's fine and did she actually give you an answer to that question? Oh Glen, good one. I'm not frightened of spelling it in words! No no! I'm certain it is going right but... And to be honest no answer is an answer thats fine but did she say errr yeah but? No no there was no yeah buts. Okay You don't have to go into intimate details here. I'm just curious! No, I was like doing a full-length anthology on it. I was doing little black and white sketches... And then she said and then i said no uh i think she's cool with that surely after eight dates and two sleepovers you're in the g zone? Sure no mate no no it is so dependent

04:52 With one woman I've seen this time last year actually, um...I knew after the first night that's it she was the one and she- I would be referring to her in my head as my girlfriend regardless whether we'd had the chat or not. Someone else in a year before I'd see for eight months We never had the chat and neither of us referred to each other in that way shape or form in the slightest. That was after 8 months! Okay, well here's the thing. She's meeting the kids tomorrow so... Oh that's a big I'm not saying about that's an amazing step! That's a great stage to have got to. That's incredible hey? How are you feeling? Are you shitting yourself? No and um and i think is his conversation was had with The X this week about it right and uh you know and I tried to empathize and relate and say like I'd be nervous if

05:51 I mean, the story from my life is some people you know extended network of people right. A stepdad in our, you know ended up being found out for abusing his step children right and And that was pretty close, close enough to me as well as all the madness that went on in my own family and teenage sort of upbringing for that to come up like boom. Like oh wow! That bloke was always around? Yeah turned out he's a paedophile yeah okay great So, and then on top of that although not quite as severe I have the very vivid experience of my dad taking us to a burger restaurant in Chatham which is Chatham Kent right. And us thinking we're going for a burger this was whilst he was separated from my step-mom and when we got there he goes oh this is Sue not her actual name uh this is Sue me and my brother it was about...I was literally about..I must have been

06:53 Maybe 13, probably 12. And I remember thinking what the fuck? Dad this is bonkers like you've done some mad shit in your time but this is weird okay like this is weird you broke up from our stepmom about three weeks ago and were in a burger bar meeting Sue So I can empathize with the ex asking questions and so, I thought in providing her information that was going to satisfy things but no. But you know, I guess few exes are happy when you mention that you've got a girlfriend

07:34 or boyfriend. So, so yes it's how am I feeling? I'm feeling, I'm feeling, I'm feeling very excited about my kids are more interested in fact Rosie in particular is more interested in finding out have you got a girlfriend? Have you got a girlfriend? Is she who what who is she? What does she do? She said she's asking me questions today! What's her favourite colour? What does she like eating? Where did she last go on holiday? Do you know the answers to these? I don't know. I think, I did say like we're progressing quite nicely but at date seven i'm not sure i'm going to know those questions yeah although major clanger turns out it's her birthday in two weeks time Well that's plenty of time, that's amazing. I know but i remember i forget what soap opera sitcom it wasn't a soap opera that's for sure um uh the sitcom but it was like

08:24 The Goldbergs or the Middle or something like that, or the Modern Family. You don't get a girlfriend! Just before I left... Yeah, yeah, so the dilemma isn't that you've missed it, the dilemma is what do you do? Because now you're in a good position here because you've semi had the chair and it's girlfriend territory, which case You can treat it like a good girlfriendy sort of thing, you know. I don't know...I'm thinking jewelry, spa days, roses and restaurants and concert tickets or something she liked, a limited edition vinyl of the band. You can go to town with it but if you hadn't had the chat

09:03 Then you've got the problem because then that feels like, am I forcing this or not? I know. Well there's a guy in the Team Superdad community right if you listen to the Team Superdad podcast You may or may not know there is a group over on Facebook We are a community of motivated modern dads creating the life we desire Not the life we feel stuck in and if that sounds like something you want to be part of then come on over In fact, if you go to teamsuperdad.com forward slash network you can just join through that and it's a free group and we'd be absolutely happy to have you one of the dads in there someone I actually know he's taken a couple of his like relatively short time girlfriends to Rome for the weekend You know so he's... He's definitely set in the bar yeah

09:50 But yeah, so have you got an idea for what you want to do? Because for me when I was seeing that... So she dropped a message on Twitter or something saying about how she collected vintage makeup mirror case things. Powder mirror things. Collected how many? I don't know, actually. I never found out but for me as soon as she'd mentioned something like that which just in passing once that gave me an instant right that's your first gift is a little and you can they're not stupid money but it's thoughtful more than anything else so has she dropped any hints about little things that show your thoughtful side rather than the fact that you're a multi-millionaire? Yeah so uh she's just had her garden done

10:42 Dead Man's Fingers Spiced Rum. I'm not affiliated with these in any way shape or form but it is one of my favourite, favourite spiced rums available on Amazon at that moment for the cheapest price it has been forever so I recommend jumping onto Amazon and getting some Dead Man's Fingers inside you So a spiced rum is what? So we're talking like, a dark rum with a bit of a kick. Yeah it's almost sweet so you've got the white rums I'm thinking the Malibus and stuff like that which are clear rums. Then you get your dark rums which are really rich and chocolatey

11:40 It's got the flavour of the rum but it also has a sweetness to it. And so this one, it spices away that almost brings out caramel notes. It just...ah! It is heavenly And Dead Man's Fingers as well, they do a bunch of pineapple or mango or bright neon bottles and so on that when you mix them with lemonade they taste like Alco Pops of the gods. Okay perfect! You know when we do meet up for the first time we must make sure that we don't have the kids right because actually it turns out our weekends are in sync... Oh yeah! So clearly we're going to get absolutely rattled

12:18 You know that episode of Men Behaving Badly where they're doing the... in the pub? We are behaving! No, I've just got a little bit red tonight. A bit of Bordeaux. I know it's quite early but it's Bank Holiday Weekend In the true timely honour of kind of being in our 20s, a bank holiday weekend would just be an absolute mayhem for four days Yeah, I've been drinking whilst doing the ironing Do you iron your kids clothes School uniform, definitely. Probably not much else to be fair... No nothing else school uniform definitely

12:59 Yeah, I get ripped the shit out of when everyone mentions online. Oh no you should just take it out of the tumble dryer and fold it up! Well fuck you Karen...I put in a tumble dryer and then I'm working and then I forget about it for a day and then its already mucked up and crumpled up? I can't let them wear crumpled up clothes they've got to take pride in themselves. Err yeah....I mean I hang..oh look we have a flippin' err look at this We have got a comment Oh bless her, we'll come back to you in a second Annie. That's lovely oh on LinkedIn just as I mentioned we've been bringing the tone down on LinkedIn.

13:41 I love ironing. My aunt taught me to iron perfectly, but no disrespect to the women I've spent time with in my life but on the odd occasion they did iron anything for me it was awful! So so I've always just ironed you know pretty much iron a shirt and if I'm going out I'll iron a T-shirt. Oh you have going out T-shirts? Definitely, yeah. Well no there's different levels of out isn't there? Obviously you know we've got out-out... Is that just when you're popping up? Yeah I don't know if i'm popping out not gonna iron a t-shirt or even just out! I'm definitely ironing a t-shirt Good man. So just to rewind a little bit so presents for the girlfriend What was about to do yeah totally yeah so she had her garden done If you're listening

14:39 Turn off now. Um, but she mentioned so she's gonna have a bar in the corner right? So you're going to get all fairy light so... She just alluded to the T-Card. Yeah yeah definitely yeah I want to get a sign that says Bar like so i'm trying to look for a light up sign that says Bar on it. Oh my god! I'll get adverts of them on Facebook all the bloody time Literally, just what we're talking is your phone needs. My phone's right here yeah give me a half an hour. Keep talking about light up... Wine for bars in the garden! I want you Nick next week to tell me how soon it is after this conversation that you start getting adverts for bar lights? If it takes too long, if ever were with Mrs Upperburgh

15:26 But yeah, for me presence especially the first ones it's never ever about let me show off how much money I've got or let me do what I want. It is never about that. Best presents are always in my opinion the ones which are thoughtful which say you know what? I've listened to one thing you said and learned something about you thats important to you Check this out, she's got this funky toothpaste right which sounds a little bit but it is that this girly unicorn toothpaste. I noticed the other day was like fully running out so as a little additional present just slip that in there.

16:08 When she stayed over, her toothbrush was... sorry I put a new head on her toothbrush. Just little things you know just trying to start to have her feel supported and appreciated. It's saying care it's saying i notice these things about you. I notice because I'm paying attention because I want to know you and I want you to know that I'm interested in you individually not just your boobs yeah And just in case anyone thinks this is an ironic conversation with two single blokes talking about how great they are as partners. I'm a fucking amazing partner, I know! I'm an incredible boyfriend...I just haven't found the right person to appreciate that yet That's exactly it, i just picked someone who didn't appreciate all the cool things I want to do for her but it seems like she actually kind of does so that's pretty cool So yeah there's a few things, there's a few things, a few things I'm lying about.. I like considerate gifts

17:00 I noticed she's got an Alexa in one room but not in the lounge so the music is on from a different room. So, I was going to get her an Alexa for the lounge but it kind of didn't press the buy button because that just felt a bit too impersonal Yeah, but that's for me. That's almost a stocking filler present it's a good present to get because it's a good thing to get but it's not going to be something which is gonna be memorable enough like oh my god he got me an Alexa! It's useful but it doesn't show any kind of thoughtfulness? Well look...it does It's again, it is thoughtful because you're saying I'm not just going to buy you an Alexa because everyone needs an Alexa and Alexa is cool. You're saying that she would like music or an Alexa in another room for this reason whatever that reason is so that is showing some thought there. That's quite a nice thing to do! So what I did was realise the Alexas are wonderful. I am a big fan of them but on their little dots and sound quality isn't all that good

18:02 Almost all of the Alexas in my house are hooked up to other speakers, uh in some way shape or form. And so you only need a little Alexa dot echo dot whatever and then you can just have proper big speakers below it and it sounds awesome! You can hook them up on networks and so on I could do that actually... Apple did this thing that Apple made this apple speaker dock with Bose back in the early days of the iPod and we went to a barbecue camping weekend once and Nigel, that is his real name

18:41 turned up with this thing, right? And it was like we're in a field. Like what the hell is... as if that's gonna do.. Anyway turns it on Nigel, bit of a DJ he's an awesome sound producer works on all sorts of TV adverts and records and stuff so he turns this thing on Both are expensive but they know what they're doing It weighs a ton you could use it as a battery So yeah, I've got two of them. Not because i'm flipping awesome but they stopped making them and if you use eBay effectively you just wait until one comes up the right price... still paid about 80 quid for each of them! Yeah so... 80 quids not bad though? Yeah that sounds like a nice gift because it's thoughtful

19:28 Yes, so I could plug in a couple of echo dots and have it always in the... Oh! I like the sound of that. Yeah good good good. I like that also. I like being able to move from room to room and it's all synced It's all playing at the same pace or at the same time And it just sounds rich and good and luxurious How anal are you about that though? Have you got this.. The Tiny bit and it just doesn't sync. And so I have to run it through the auxiliary cables, I had to hardwire it because the Bluetooth isn't good enough! On the Google devices you can offset the time for that? Yeah... You don't get that on the Amazons It's really... That's one of the annoying things Well, I've got both Oh check you out Mr... Someone's earning No, I decided I was gonna buy both Decide what was best then get rid of the ones that were not as good Would you prefer...?

20:42 I've always preferred the Google and I don't know what Google are doing, but they're doing stuff to their Google Home. And it's just not as good as it was. Oh okay! And Alexa... The little things like Alexa when you want to put your Bluetooth on So that if you turn on Spotify, devices just come up for Alexa. Whereas Google I have to say turn on Bluetooth and then it will pair with my phone automatically so someone could say well that's really easy you just say pair with Bluetooth and it just comes along other people might say just click the button pick the room that you're in. So Alexa you can ask for a web page brilliant Google bizarrely you can't bring up a webpage What do you mean bring up a webpage? Are you talking about ones with screens

21:29 I've got a screen, I've got different ones of screens here. So, um, obviously Google's... I'll tell you what the answer is. They're as good as each other and it's so there is no... Amazon's better at like you've got your Audible things on there and up until recently it was winning because it had Netflix and Amazon Prime. Google has YouTube as a default app and now has Netflix. You can, on the ones with the screens of course. Yeah yeah. Oh annoyingly for someone who's into his like 80s house and 90s house and 80 soul if I say to Alexa play Centreforce Radio it will play it. If I say to Google play Centerforce Radio it won't so just enough to drive people crazy. Yeah that is annoying but its details like that that matter

22:23 It is, it truly is. This is not 2016 after all come on! No I know well...I was beeping stuff today. I beeped an ice cream today which I'm not the first time I've beeped an ice cream but you know it's like the woman pulls up in the ice-cream van. Here's a good question mate how much do ice cream van people make? How much is an ice cream van a year? How many ice creams do you have to sell to make decent money and if you've got an ice cream van, are you comfortably off? I always think of cut ice-cream vans in the same bracket as black cab drivers.

23:03 Except they're more seasonal. So I reckon an ice cream van, you get a prime pitch in a park or something like that or a good round and all that...I reckon you must be raking it in! Because you just buy cheap especially because everyone wants a 99p whippy or whatever it is um and they're dirt cheap to probably only cost about 5p in ingredients 10 p in ingredients You sell them for £1, £50 or whatever stick a bit of flake in it yeah stick another 50p on even though that's only costed 20p itself In terms of profit margin for those sort of things, I reckon that they are absolutely loaded. But I reckon the trouble is like I say it's only for seasonal things and only if you get a good pitch. Yeah so she was...so she pulled up about 20 kids were queuing the cheapest ones were about two pounds the average one was about three pounds and then it kind of went up So Jago naturally managed to find something with 350. It had a few

23:57 A few chocolate eggs on it, like mini-eggs. Cadbury's Mini Eggs. Three Mr Whippy squirts and some chocolate syrup in a tray. £3.50. That sounds good value! The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie Jensen, Wrap Up, Glenn Goulding, The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie Jensen, Wrap Up, Glenn

24:49 Exactly. So all these, you can get slightly cheaper but even the cheapest pub is always going to be way way way more than all we've got used to over the last year of drinking at home and if like if we're buying rum that portion of rum I just poured myself probably in a bar would cost me about 12 quid. And the bottle itself costs 16 quid and so on but then I keep reminding myself I'm not paying for We're paying for the ambience. We're paying for the ability to be in a place with other people, atmosphere music lights all that sort of shit because we don't get that! We've got the booze covered at home but nothing else and it's just not the same. We're not going out to get drunk, we're going out to have a good time and you gotta pay for that shit. It is true but it is a shame now I know actually put this on the pre-roll earlier this week about where did beer suddenly gets so expensive?

25:46 It's like Disneyland, you want to go out for a good night you're talking about 100 quid. I was thinking about this the other week when i was thinking when i used to go out and make me feel really old here and i'm sure you're exactly the same...I used to be able to go out with 20 quid in my skyrocket and i'd be able to get beers and beers and beers get hammered and still always have enough money in my pocket for a kebab afterwards! Exactly food on the way home, 20 quid was a night out of food on your way home. Can you imagine? If I go out with a lady on a date these days, 20 quid won't even get me two cocktails. No! That's one round of drinks Do you know what? Last year we were out and out and not even out but we were out right and my mate he was single dad right it wasn't long single then

26:37 So there was these two women and they were quite young to be fair. I don't think we realised how young they were until we sat with them, Paul said... Oh! I've told his name now! All you have to do is say Paul not his real name. Yeah go for it now, I can't double whammy! You can't man! So Paul goes and says to him, Do you want a drink? And they said yeah 2 pina coladas Another Pina Colada, Drink of the Gods. Yeah we were in London so it cost him I'm not kidding 30 quid for two Pina Coladas and so he sat with these two women and I've flipping awkward as hell

27:19 Here's the classic, one of them was French visiting her English kind of exchange student pen pal cousin I don't know what. He couldn't really speak English that well so Paul was on a hide into nothing all the way 30 quid and clearly one didn't even like the thing she was drinking because she kept sipping it and putting it down so it was hilarious Mind you beers were flipping 8 quid there Why is beer a bad thing? Because like I say, you're not paying for the beer. You're paying for everything that goes around the beer and if at the end of day... If i could say right instead of me buying a bottle of rum here, I'll pay five times as much but there will be a nice lady to sit and talk to as I drink it! I'd pay that every time yeah I just throw money out

28:11 Because the pub has now got minimum wage and so he's gotta pay loads of money for the staff. And don't even get me started on licensing for sports events, I was speaking to... I mean sports events can cost up 15 grand a month in some places. These... Sky costs that much money! It's something like that yeah it is ridiculous, ridiculous amounts of money for some of these bars The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie Jensen, Wrap Up, Glenn It's tough though and it's just not as fun when you think go to the pub, okay I need at least 50 quid because if someone buys a round oh my gosh do i stay in the round? Do I get out of the round? Oh rounds are always yeah there's politics about rounds isn't there. Now what I hate is start the round then three other people turn up and you're like hang on a minute! Yeah you just put here...I don't know that I want to my round suddenly now looks like 50 quid when

29:16 Mike's round was 20 quid. And by the way, some bastards can drink like mental! That's where I have to get out of rounds. The fast drinkers they're doing me two-to-one easily. Another round? Another beer? Do you want another one Jon? I can't drink that much. B, where are you getting all this money from? Yeah there is something the only time it works is when you're out with a bunch of mates watching football and so it doesn't matter how fast you buy them because you can just sit and watch the football end It'll be on there and you could just rack up in front even then once football's over Once round the first kind of completed round is done

30:01 You might have three or four points lined up in front of you. That's fine, I'll just sit here and enjoy them while someone brings out some roast potatoes that they've cooked in the background. Yeah totally! Here's a question right? How... well you know when on a stag deal and you do a whip? Why does that last longer? I don't know. I hate whips. It's the mystery of the gods basically, why does a whip last longer? Yeah but i hate them and I don't know why...I just- I don't like the principle that everyone kind of- it's fucking communism that's what it is! Communist drinking! Honest Agda though surely you gotta let that slide Oh yeah, you totally do. But the thing is it's just like... Just buy drinks if you're on a stag do. You don't go there to save money, do ya? You go there to get the stag fucked up! Yeah so everyone's in 20s. Do yo know what one of the funniest stags... For me this is the best stag like... You know when you have to make the stag do something right all weekend right this is the best one

30:57 Every time the Stag goes for a piss, he has to do the full toddler pants down. I like that! That's the best one! All these other ones are really gross and fully crude... No, the best one is every time he goes to the toilet someone has to go with him. Everytime he goes he has to do full pants down. Oh I like that see? I had loads of them. Everytime someone shouted hammer time i had to MC Hammer Dance I had to get a certain number of lipstick kisses all over me. I had to have photos taken with a certain number of women's clothing, genuinely it was only until the day after that i saw myself like with bras on... To this day I don't know how I ended up convincing some women to give me their bras! I wish I knew that skill now because that would come in handy

31:47 Yeah, Stag Doos and me I've got a bad history in stag doos. So on one of them we broke my cousin's leg another one where i was the best man my brother-in law he now has a scar in the shape of New Zealand on his chest Because we were gonna, we're going to wax. He was a boy scout and so I made him dress up in the full Cub Scout uniform and he was bad! Like a scout leader or some sort of? Yeah yeah that's what it does um and and so i figured it'd be funny to get him all dressed up and so on. We did uh... we did Monopoly around London And he had a load of badges to wear. So every time he went to a bar, you'd roll the dice if you got six, he had to do one of his badges. You know, dibs on that. There might be that serenading badge where he had to go up to a random person of our choice so obviously we chose the most attractive woman in the room and do the Top Gun... Yes! ...you've lost that loving feeling. Your eyes anymore when I kiss your lips

32:50 The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie Jensen, Wrap Up, Glenn The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie Jensen, Wrap Up, Glenn The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie Jensen, Wrap Up, Glenn Gould,

33:39 She held the candle so close that the wax didn't dry, it just bubbled on his skin and kind of just melted his skin a bit. And now he's got a scar on his tit that is in the shape of New Zealand always to remind himself of that exact moment. One of our mates we sent to hospital because... We had a stripper riding him around the stage like say he was the horse and she was jockey not knowing that he actually had some sort of really bad The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie Jensen, Wrap Up, Glenn

34:19 Carried on going. What are you here? That's me! Who is this tag? No he is not here. Yeah, he's in Auspil. Hindus it's all about oh let's be lovely and supportive and make sure the Hin has a lovely time. Stag doos are about fuck the stag up. I think some hindus... Not to label Geordie ladies or other northern lasses, but... I remember going up there for a second. Some Medway Towns ladies that could be Bristol? Where are the wildest women in the country?

35:00 Well, Geordie's are mad when I went up there. We went up there in February time or something like that because The Stagg he was a big kind of mountain person so we went on doing mountaineering courses during the daytime and all that sort of shit and then at night going out in Newcastle... Fuck me they were hardcore! I was married at the time but oh my god I want to go up there again Although I did go, Leeds was quite good. Went on a stag doing Leeds although the stag did end up putting his head through a window He was so drunk, yeah. When you're kind of staggering and he decided to lean forward to put his head on a wall so we could have a piss and didn't realise there was just the window straight through. So it wasn't a shop window? No this is the house that we were staying in that we'd rented, The Former Vicarage. Ah yes well there ya go! Nice Victorian window single pane

35:58 Straight through. God knows how old, but yeah... We've talked about doing a monthly with a women's podcast of the same style and flavour. That's definitely, we should be making note of these questions when we get that set up I do keep looking by the way if anyone is listening and your missus listens to some kind of women's podcast where it's two fun women being a bit leery being a bit silly Get us in touch because I want to do like a monthly or six weekly wrap up where we hang out with some nutty women podcasters and basically take the piss out of each other. They would know, like the truth behind Hindus! See I get the impression that they're all lovely and fun and then you know there's some at the end of day one was gonna end up crying in a toilet

36:55 But it's all about all the nice things and they do spa weekends. This is the stereotypical view that men have got about hen weekends, is that the case or are they as debauched as we are? I don't think they're quite as debauched but when I say some definitely are there's gotta be because we know there's mad women out there mad ladettes Keeping up the 90s spirit. Got no Hot in the 90's this week by the way, sorry for anyone who loves the hot in the 90s section we don't have anything lined up Turns out there's only a certain length of, there's only some like... Hot in the 90s doesn't have quite as much legs as we thought it might do basically. Oh I don't know that there's a lot of hot people from the 90s but one round of things we should do is people who were hot in the 90s who are still hot

37:50 I know, but we normally go and look to see if they're still hot. So listen listeners, listeners and viewers give us your hot in the 90s categories right? I was thinking today because i was chatting to a dad who's a bit overweight but he was saying to me how come you look so good and I was like hey yeah... And then we were talking about it! So I couldn't help but pat his tummy! It was like well there's your problem right there and Fitness workout people in the 90s. But Matt, about Ben and Pete... Yeah you're talking about Mr Motivator type things? I'm thinking about it from my angle here. I'm okay to extend it slightly into hot in the noughties because in the naughties I was in my 20's

38:53 I know you were in your, what? 40s 50s. I'm okay to say hot ever! Because a friend of mine he's on Instagram is in a very happy marriage right so his wife pretty chilled out about this and so he has got these hotties that follows him on instagram So he was liking whatever her name is photo and then he gets a notification couple days or whatever TFP is telling us it on the mate zoom call His son, you know when you get... Glen has liked this post right so he gets a notification on his Instagram saying obviously not your son but Simon's surname has liked and he goes no! Stop liking her photos because I'm liking their photos and if we're both liking the same photos

39:45 It's either really cool and we're like that kind of family or it's really weird. It was weird when my daughter was showing me pictures, videos she kept coming up to me and saying look at this K-pop band isn't she hot? I think i think she's really attractive because my daughter is bisexual I'm just trying to say to her, look my head says yes i can understand why people would find that woman attractive however she's about 12 in my eyes. She's probably not she's probably in her early 20s and so on but still...

40:26 I can intellectually say that me and my daughter are kind of attracted to the same type of woman, but no. I'm not going there at all! That's just weird. Oh yeah...I love it when me and my daughter fancy the same women. We like to do a little bit of serious stuff every now and again Glen. What's your advice slash experience of your daughter coming out in that respect? I had this conversation with an older guy in the Team Superdad community a while back actually, and it turned out his son had come out to him and his wife in his early 19's. He went off to university some kind of 10 years later he'd had a heart-to-heart over lockdown because they were all struggling and said yeah I don't think you handled that really well and it put me into a hole for about five years so

41:25 Tough conversation for me and the dad to have, and I think i helped him a fair bit. But what can you say to any dads whose child has come out to them in some way shape or form? Well there's two things. Firstly the dads who it's just happened to, and the other side of it is dads who it definitely hasn't happened because their kids are too young but... And I think there's two different answers to that. To those It's just kind of been sprung upon them. They haven't talked about it in the past or anything like that The best thing you can do is make sure that your child knows no matter what, you love them and you appreciate them and it's not an issue And... That there- You care about them In their happiness and its' not about whether they're attracted to who happens be a boy or girl or whatever

42:20 It's just about, are you going to be happy? I'm just as hard on girls my boy fancies as boys my girl fancies. And equally as hard on each of them know that i'm gonna have the same standards for anyone that my children dates whatever their gender. For those who have got younger children and so on I've been really keen on pre-empting things and laying the groundwork because You're talking about someone who can see in their child? No, no. Even if you can't see it that in your child is it's not because kind of sexual orientation doesn't always... It's not as if your boy walks in a certain way then he's definitely gay If your girl likes having short hair and she's definitely gay. It's not like that! It's about whether or not you think it might be the case

43:21 Making sure your kids know that even if they are or they're not, it doesn't matter. It's their identity and they can grow into it and they can own it and you'll celebrate whoever they are whatever their identity sexual with with sexual orientation whether they want to be... If they want to be a bin man I don't care! I'm gonna celebrate you if you wanna be the best bin man. If you're attracted to women or you're attracted to men I don't care as long as you're going to be happy and raising those standards. Because I'm gonna be as hard on any girl my daughter brings home, as any boy she brings home. I'm gonna just as stringent in terms of expectations about their relationship but it's about as early as possible explicitly calling out that it doesn't matter and its strange because you kind of want make is a thing that doesn't need to said but the only way you can make not say this by saying

44:20 It's not always the easiest, comfortable thing but you have to do it regardless of whether you think your child might be gay or bisexual or anything else. You have to have those conversations as early as possible so they know that if they are it's fine and if they're not that's fine and if their friends are that's fine. You just have to make them feel secure that whatever they're talking about You support them and are there for them, and believe them and love them. Yeah so even if they're exploring it... ...and I don't know you know you're fine like whatever wherever their your kid knows that their supported I guess that's same as if you love your kid playing football when your kids says I don't like football anymore dad I'm gonna go play to the park. You say, you can be gay but you cannot play football!

45:13 But no, just yeah I get that. Just having your kid feel like they're heard and appreciated and they've got the space to be themselves yeah And they don't either...and they're not sitting there thinking oh he just thinks it's a phase It's not! You exploring everything about yourself Whenever you kind of, if you happen to eventually settle down into whatever lifestyle you want to lead. You know what? I'm absolutely going to accept it as normal. Whatever you do is normal. Whatever you do is good As long as you're doing it to the best you can possibly do it But having those conversations like I say regardless whether you think your kids are or aren't gay That's the point to really do it. I always think if my kids are

45:54 The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie Jensen, Wrap Up, Glenn Goulden, early, as early as possible and regularly as possible and consistently as possible. And then push them and test them as well with... It's the same we've been talking recently about feminism and stuff like that I've taught my kids about feminism as a concept and then I will drop in things that are not feminist. I'll be saying yeah of course that man is getting earned more men are better than women you know? We should be paid more

46:33 And then I will give my kids shit if they don't pull me up on it. It's the same for homophobic language or anything which implies that any relationship, any kind of sexual orientation isn't absolutely normal and fine and supported I will not only teach them it is, but then I'll test them by dropping in the odd comment and then hoping that they pull me up on it. Because if they don't, then they don't feel comfortable challenging and which case are not comfortable with kind of make... That's not as not they're not comfortable with that being normal. True! And even if you agree with that or not, that's about values and that's about your kids having values and honoring those values which in itself is a decent trait as well let alone

47:17 Trying to steer them in the way that we feel the world is right now. Good! I hope that's been a contribution to people because like i said it,s I think it's ever more common... well my girlfriend she's a teacher so she's got hearing kids come in and saying oh I'm poly something or other or I'm not gay Just be like, okay cool. Great! Or tell me about it. Tell me about it like wow I don't know how to react. Tell me, tell me fill me in what's going on? Yeah um cool well I don't know more about than that so I'm gonna leave that subject there but bring the conversation over to the Team Superdad community if you want to carry that on

48:05 Glen, it's Easter this weekend. Easter? Yes it is! You're not a very religious man but do you have any Easter traditions? Did the Easter bunny with your kids? No when you say not very religious I'm anti-religion so... I am actively atheist uh so yeah uh I've got no problem with celebrating pagan festivals. I've got no problem with chocolate. Yeah I'll buy them chocolate and do that sort of stuff they've gotta got shelves of it and it just ends up sitting there and being put in cupboards I have a faith, I have both the Christian and spiritual sort of faith-based ethos. As far as opposing other religions go no i definitely don't go that far. Yeah yeah yeah it's...

48:50 If you're going to expect me to believe my religions right, then I've got to allow you the freedom to expect your religions right or your freedom to believe there's no religion at all. I struggle with the idea that there is nothing out there bigger than us. Oh! I love that idea. I love it so much. It makes in my mind absolute perfect utter sense and gives me a sense of The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie Jensen, Wrap Up, Glenn Gould, The Jonnie Jensen Show,

49:35 Yeah, well I'm in the space of I believe there's an after but not like it's heaven or hell. I just believe that we are a spirit based being on a journey and that just as much as a baby in the womb would be like oh this is brilliant! And then be like Oh F**K what's going on? No no no! Who's talking so? So my experience of life is kind of a bit like that... Well NO don't flip me off! I've got it! Oh, I've died and it's lovely over here. You know that this is kind of...I'm more along those lines there are too many things that happen on a coincidental basis that just don't feel off this world but

50:20 But without getting deep into that, I'm more interested about the chocolate flipping traditions and stuff because tomorrow night we'll be doing Easter baskets and then we'll be hiding them ready for the kids to find them which was a tradition that i got given by my American family. So Easter morning when we used to be there every Easter There'd be this mad hunt for the baskets and the baskets are basically packed full of sweets or candy, right? And American chocolate is shit so it's not done till it's... It is awful. What happened there like

51:01 They do, they're just like right we're not going to buy your chocolate. We're gonna make our own chocolate and you know what? We're not gonna make it as good so we're just gonna keep making chocolate in the world and we're just gonna sell shit chocolate yeah I just don't get it because European chocolate isn't... It's not that we've got some sort of weird secret ingredients people know how to make chocolate the way Europeans make it and the way Europeans make here is the best chocolate in the world every American who comes over and tries European chocolate says my god that's better We've been cheated. What is this flipping magic brown stuff? It's ridiculous! For the first 25 years, pre-internet right when I used to go to America... ...I used to be like flipping Don Corleone except it wasn't Pappy Watt but just bags and bags of Cadbury chocolate

51:51 But what I don't like about the whole Easter thing, now i've got a big problem with the kind of escalation or celebration of these things. Whether it... obviously this one's a Christian festival whatever but paganism for Halloween and all that sort of stuff. Oh Halloween is up to charts! It's insane isn't it? It is but with all these things I've heard people saying what are you getting your kids for their Easter presents?! What!? Fuck right off. This is not a present giving moment, they can have an Easter egg that's been shit out by a bunny and that's as much as their bloody getting! Well that must be why Amazon did a spring sale last week. Their pre-Easter flipping get us a present bonanza Yeah yeah it was absolute utter bullshit if my kids ever come to me and said what are you gonna get me for Easter then I will fucking give them a bin fire

52:46 I've been fine. No, was that... Did people ever do this? Put shit in a bin and set fire to it? They come out and they see a pile of burning stuff and they stamp on it and they're stamping on burning shit is that true? I've heard of it, yes. I've definitely heard of it but never experienced nor seen it. The 70s thing... did it ever happen? Did it ever happen? It's one those things where you have to get the shit from somewhere and that is a level of dedication to hatred! Yeah! Look, I just had an idea Glen. Is your dad still alive?! He's only 61. A fucking geezer! Six kids and he's only 61! Man's got... what is he Catholic surely?

53:31 We should get our dads on, yeah? To give us like a proper old school dad perspective, I would love that. My dad... one of my favourite things my Dad ever did for a little while without before he didn't really tell us until it kind of had recorded a couple and he recorded recipes as he's making it and it's like Cockney chef. He said yeah you see what you just chop a bit at a pepper in it just shove a bit out of paprika on top is fuck if pucker in its wicked just do this and We're ahead, we're ahead. Massive Spurs fan but he drinks beer and so if we drink him beer he will drink me under the table because he can just hold beer I don't know how it just absorbs it and then maybe pisses once as a human camel So what we'll do is this is brilliant we're gonna so do this it could end up being a series

54:39 Like whatever they're called, Generation X or Generation... No he's a boomer! He's from 1916. I don't know how these old things are the linear of all these things right but we'll get the baby boomers which will be our two dads and we'll get us too and we will like do some flipping topic cards like five minutes on Ironing, like fuck off she can iron everything. I'd love to see from their perspective how it's different being a dad now like how they see us being dads as opposed to how they were dads and for me it's got the added kind of layer effect because my Dad you know he left this

55:18 The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie Jensen, Wrap Up, Glenn Goulden, I've kicked her out, i've got the kids full time and i'm desperate to keep them as much of a full...I think we're from different generations old man. Son we gotta talk! That is funny well we are so doing that so we don't need to find dads because we got two then we're going to get them lined up and we're gonna get these women on as well we're gonna do that really yeah when's father's day?

56:00 Oh yeah, we could do a Father's Day special. Let's do it for Father's day! Okay right so I think it's in July... I'm sure we can have it before Father's day though. Yeah good Glen, good, great session. We didn't cover virtually anything on our list and that's absolutely fine No we didn't! We did call it They Think It's All Over which is about lockdown basically So we've got a couple of minutes A before the hours up and B before I piss myself The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie Jensen, Wrap Up, Glen

56:43 They should be called out because it's absolutely outrageous. It doesn't matter if outdoor stuff is... they've not got absolute evidence, it increases stuff. The risk is massive! We're so close to the finishing line why would you just stumble? Especially when there's a flipping vigil for a murdered woman gets bashed up after A couple of hundred people turned up or whatever. And I think there's two... So that one, that had a political element that kind of was almost more important than the COVID risk. This was a bunch of twats sitting in a park for no reason other than the sun was shining. Fuck off! And take your rubbish home with you! Oh, that's the worst bit. That's the worst bit. Leave No Trace. Leave No Trace. Take nothing but photos leave nothing but memories. Yeah good
