Top chats for banter, for mums, for dads at the end of your week. Boom boom boom! Good to have you all here Glenn good to see ya buddy. Good to be seen Jonnie good to be seen.

00:57 Except for our podcast listeners who are listening and they're going, I hate it when they talk about the live stream. Then they know we're on a podcast wankers! Well get involved you know? Log on viewers get in touch live and drop us a note We're gonna do a box set at Christmas it's gonna be brilliant You're gonna go to be able to get the indexed and jump between shows And get the fans favorite and all that jazz can be brilliant Jonnie unplugged That's a phrase you never thought you'd hear before your life support was involved. When you said plug, my brain just went to buttplug I don't know why! That says far too much about you my friend! Only time i've ever actually seen a butt plug is in Amsterdam... Porn shops in Amsterdam basically Then you have not lived mate, you have not lived

01:50 I'm not sure if i was supposed to ask a question there. Definitely not, all outline no detail we'll leave it with that okay A friend of mine had a girlfriend who and she was the one that told us about her rosary beads and she liked to have them pushed up her bottom during sex and then as she came she liked to have them pulled out All I will say is if you are going into that area, ensure you have a flared end on it. Otherwise doctors work hard enough as it is they don't need to be getting stuff out of ya okay just make sure there's a flared end. Pro tip! Oh see thats just beyond me...

02:39 Here's our little banner for the week, The Wrap Up. Number 30! That's quite a nice round sort of... It is I feel like we should have thrown some sort of party for it? Oh well we're gonna put it off and be like the Queen We're gonna have a summer birthday party, a summer party I've been to one of those by the way, I've been to a couple garden parties at Buckingham Palace. In fact... He gives you the gardener! No bullshit! So i used to do yurt work in it and our patron was Princess Anne so we used to do loads of stuff involving her and a couple times we got invited to garden parties and one time I went there my mum she's a massive royalist

03:21 When I was having a wander around the garden, found this really nice plant bush type thing. Snapped a bit off stuck it in her pocket gave it to my mum and she seeded it and planted it so technically my mum tends the Queen's Bush! She has got royal bush in her garden that is all I am saying It's probably going to get me beheaded but it's totally worth it. I've just admitted it now! There are a number of people, like I've been to some hospitality events and there was this company called Hospitality Finder, Big Up Hospitality Finder and they do this thing called the Green Room and one of their regular guys is the rugby player that's married to

04:06 The Hot One. Oh, well that's not going to narrow it down very much is it? Women love a rugby player because you know they're all sizes. Size doesn't matter and then they see a rugby player walking along like hello maybe it does! She ignores the cauliflower ears and the fact that he drinks his mates piss but... No what's her name? Come on, Tindall Mike Tindall is one of the regulars at the Hospitality Finder Green Room events. So he's got a few stories which have royal approval even though they're a bit close to the bone basically, so yeah and uh... He talks about different times like when he's been sat and the first time you met The Queen and then you get told the protocol

05:01 And I'm not going to do his story no justice, but it's brilliant to hear how the normalness of life suddenly gets thrown a curveball when you're told that you're probably gonna speak to the Queen later. It's mad! It really is weird because I've stayed overnight at one of her palaces and been around Ran her house for dinner before and been to garden parties and stuff, but I've still never got within sort of 10 meters of the Queen. So i'm a little bit annoyed! I've still gotta do this thing and actually just high-five her at some point. You need to get up the pecking order yeah definitely well here's a funny one so my dad also got invited to a garden party once

05:44 And as the story goes, it was around the time of my step-mom and him breaking up. But some level of protocol meant that it was best that they both still went. So my dad's answer to most situations is get pissed basically. He's my kind of man! And not in some brutal drunken kind of let's, you know but in a fun way The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie Jensen, Wrap Up, Eddie Murphy,

06:30 She's my favourite. My dad just did a classic fail, he was like... Weren't you married to someone? So the horse rider or whatever, yeah. Stinking of garlic and brandy and yeah so good my dad top bloke top bloke you can always count on him to ram raid a situation It's weird with royal family. First time I got invited to Buckingham Palace, you actually do get a letter that like a proper little card that says by Royal Decree or something like that is proper Buckingham Palace stationery and my mum has still go it framed on her wall

07:14 And that's how proud she was, that I was going off to Buck Palace for a bit. Still! I think it's a big deal...I'm a royalist as much as I don't dislike them you know? I think it's good for the country. We're gonna pay anyway one way or the other and now you think being president doesn't cost money like bloody hell! So yeah how many people nick stuff?! I think they probably, at the start of a garden party they bring out like get 200 ashtrays in. A bog roll that's got the HR on it just because they know everyone is going to fleece their flipping bed. Three more ash trays in the smoking room two pot plants in the toilets and then they just go around stocking up all day because give them stuff they can nick so its alright

08:12 Well, Glenn for anyone joining us for the first time we need to but it wasn't even scheduled a little chit chat royal thing. Oh! It is a Royal Week as well because Harry and Meghan... it's all the talk isn't? So we can come back to that but yeah this is the wrap up which is what we do we get together at the end of the week and we talk nonsense because we can't in the pub anymore although that is coming back uh and with Team Superdad We are dads creating our best lives ever. Whether you're single, whether you're in a relationship there's always an opportunity to stick your headphones on and have a break basically. And talking of breaks what is my son saying? I don't know what is your son saying to me? He said can he go sleep in my room because his sister is chatting with her mate

09:05 Definitely can, you don't want to be around that voice. I've listened to podcasts for years. Glenn and I, we have a shared interest in one of North London's probably actually North London's finest team. What is North London's only team? There is South London franchise that is currently playing there but I'm sure they'll move on again at some point They will definitely

09:41 But The Fighting Cock is a great podcast and the thing I like about it most, probably aside from the football, is just the laugh they have. The absolute laugh they have! So when I put the Wrap Up together, I was like this is something that dads can listen to when they're cooking, when their mowing the lawn When they're driving in a car on the way back home and have a bit of a laugh, bit of a giggle. Try and be as relatable as possible And yeah just tell one on ourselves We've got Glenn who is at A Dating Dad on Twitter and Instagram Occasionally we have other guests join us Do you know this poor sound quality? I'm just going to say to all our regulars apologies about the sound quality last week

10:25 I had my noise gate turned on as well. So, as well as dodgy...I'm going to tune in via a mobile phone. I had a setting on on my deck called Noise Gate which doesn't help but there we go. And iIm really sorry for again to those regular listeners but they were genuinely northern and there's nothing we can do about that it's just We'll try and find some sort of filter to make them all understand. Maybe we can do some sort of audio subtitles next time? Well, you've got to go categories of Northness as well because... Of course there's Watford and then there's the North! You've got Manx, Scallies, Geordies, Brummies

11:12 Yeah, North, North and North. Have you got any Brummie mates? I have indeed yeah! One of my best mates who just started working with me actually he's from West Bromwich or wherever that is... wherever that team is and genuinely he's got this West Country drawl or it's a Black Country drawl not West Country, Black Country drawl and it's uh it's an impressive thing to behold Yeah I can't even do it. I can attempt a bit of a Brummie... Oh, it's like I'm back in Peaky Blinders again! Oh man, so I live with a Brummie. So when I went to uni...I didn't really know many Brummies before I went to uni and then there's one guy...oh my god! Steph, good old Steph. Full Brummie about as Brummies it gets basically because the brilliant thing about Brummies is they're like they're just kind of like bonkers. It's like they're daft

12:10 I'm going to be doing a podcast with Eddie Murphy. Real cheeky, loads of gays about him but in a brummie way and all his clothes mattered and everything. So Elliott and I get our place together and then his mates would periodically come down to see us right? So there'd be about 10 of these Brummies that would turn up now it would always go wrong! It would always, always go wrong

12:59 And it was, they would end up having a... They would go somewhere where something was obviously going to go wrong. Like go to a strip bar and then get fleeced of all their money and then go into the strip bar in Soho and got fleeced of all their money. They would then have a fight between them about whose fault it was! Of course they're blind drunk by this time. Then it would completely fall apart before coming back together at the end in some kind of like bruised and battered drunken sort of big hug-it out at the end, and it happened every single time absolutely classic! It's The Brummie Way that's all we've got to say. Brummage you know there weren't their word brummage

13:43 The word brummage, right? It's a word that means like a collection of crap. It gets the word brummage because this sort of stuff used to be made in the Birmingham area, right? So I'm going look up brummage meaning...I think that's pretty much it isn't it! Brimmage. Oh, nothing's coming up Google can't handle some UK slang. It just keeps bringing up brimmage. No it's the word brimmage! And how has your week been Glenn? You told me earlier like you've been working at a bar this week. Mate it's been long...it's good I like being busy

14:24 But it's getting to a stage. So I had my day job as normal, and then other duties have been plopped on me as someone that was in a situation where now taking on managing another team and they're all onboarding and stuff. And then we've had bids coming in and I've had presentations... A few nights this week I'd be working until 1am just getting stuff done and then up for 830 am meetings plus homeschooling and all that sort of stuff I am shattered, absolutely shattered. It's nice you know when you're tired but proud of your work and it's been a good week but i've earned the lay-in and i'm really quite pleased that my kids aren't here this week they went back to their mums tonight so um i've got a week without them and i'm just gonna sleep sleep the entire bloody time! It's nice but i don't want to do it all the time i gotta say

15:18 Are you one of those people that can sleep in? Can you actually, can you like do it? Yeah, and in fact tomorrow we've got... it's great because at the moment I don't know what you're like in terms of cricket but the England versus India. Yes we're probably going to end up in a bad way by the time I wake up tomorrow but there's something really nice about waking up. There's been a couple of hours play so it settled in and no matter what time I wake up stick it on a telly in my room and then just sit there lay in bed. No matter how long I can lay in bed until sort of 11 12 o'clock and just relax No!

16:19 Now there's nothing nicer, and especially if you've got someone you're enjoying your time with. There's nothing not... I remember a while ago was I woke up and I was with a lady and we enjoyed a bit of time together then relax and watch the... I think it was... Was it Le Mans? So we watched and she was big into motorsports so we watched a cut about some Le Mans enjoy ourselves a bit more ...at a brunch in bed and just relaxed and chilled till about one in the afternoon. That is a great way to spend a day, I've got to say! Yes... that could-I could definitely be talked into that, that's for sure. But you don't have to get up? You can't do that if you're getting off and mowing the fucking grass or something like that?! No but I'm not gonna get up if I've got a woman in the bed am I? Well I'd get up for something but it's about sucking out my head

17:12 But I, because I am not a morning guy. You know i've dated women and they've been... the last couple of women I've had like relationship-y type stuff with they're both from teachers and they've been getting up at sort of half five in the morning six in the morning so they can get up get ready um get set gets out of work uh so they can get to their school for half past seven but of course as soon as they're awake I have to be awake whether I'm at my house or their house No, I don't want to be awake. I'm a night owl! I don't wanna go bed until midnight at one in the morning or something like that because all the best things happen at nighttime no good things happen early morning yet they insist on getting up and having a job where they actually have to get up and go to work it's not right i think there should be laws against it okay fair dues fair dues i am a morning person

18:03 In that case you and me are never gonna work romantically I've got to say. Sorry man, don't mean to let you down here! Watching LeMonds in bed together... Well.... I got a running order as always, got a little bit of stuff to chit-chat this week Before we do that how was your week? Oh tough i think just got a lot going on Team Superdad is pushing it on and There's always a list. I've always written a list and i'm a sucker for putting too much on the list there's a quote saying, I've been told and have been using it and playing with it bit recently we underestimate sorry... We overestimate what we can do in a day and underestimate what we can do in a year

18:56 I like that, it's good. You can play with it as well like you can overestimate what you can do in a day and underestimate what you can do in a week and so I make the list okay that's a lot of stuff where do I go? And I'm like a madman I'm like bat the rat trying to but of course I end up doing tickle 10 things and don't finish any of them so then I get to Friday oh my gosh! I've not finished any of them so they have to cope When I'm working with Dad, sometimes a subject comes up and you can see that. And then you're talking about it and I go breathe? And it's remarkable when someone says to you breathe and you go oh my gosh yeah I do need to breathe actually so yeah it's been it's been a bit like that obviously a bit of football kids came back on Wednesday Spurs were on TV on Thursday

19:48 I've been running, fitness. The Fitness is Back obviously was a regular subject we cover You're the Yang to my Ying Until one day when you come knocking and go, Jonnie. You know I've been saying that I don't do fitness for the last three years? Can you help me? Mate! I'm not saying I don't need it. I'm not saying I don't want to. I'm just bloody lazy. I just...I'm just not the sort of person who has any motivation whatsoever to actually get off their arse and make their life better. I need a challenge. Either it will come and it will stick or you're gonna fall in love with someone who agrees with you and you're just gonna wane. Yeah, wane and waneta into old age. Well they were happy!

20:34 Besides the fact Wayne Atwell went off and had um, oh what did she describe? I want a baby! I want a brown baby. And so she went off and had an affair and came back but Wayne took her back bless him and he loved those kids like they were his own. I've got to say that if that ain't love what is?! That's basically Shakespearean it is I'm sure Harry Enfield was thinking that when he scripted it, he was thinking Shakespeare. Definitely! Weirdly actually i did listen to an amazing podcast where he actually looked into the... discussed the psychology and the economic impact of loads of money um and how actually it created the entire character was actually commandeered by the Tory party at the time even though it's a satirical parody of their policies

21:19 And he was actually quite frustrated the fact that he was satirising them, but they were claiming it as a mark of honour to the point where actually his character was quoted in Hansard. I was like this shouldn't be the case! I wrote this for these reasons and he's actually been quite clever about what he is doing so whilst i'm not saying Wayne and Waynetta are the Romeo and Juliet of our time um what i am saying is uh... He was sharper than he let on Oh unbelievably, well all good comedians are. It comes from a satirical reflection on the world around us which they show us and we all laugh at fairly often to realise what they're actually talking about. What was that Friday Night Live? Why don't we have Friday Night Live? That was bloody brilliant that TV programme! We don't have any good shows on comedy these days

22:09 There's panel shows, great. The 8 out of 10 Cats Stars Countdown actually I bloody like! Would i lie to you that... Yo there are satirical panel shows but when was the last great sketch show? Oh well Fast Show... Fast Show... oh um... Fast Show was 20 years ago! Yeah Little Britain would have probably been the last one 25 years ago Little Britain was 25 years ago? Something like that. It was a long, long time ago this was early noughties at the very latest I guess there hasn't been a great sketch comedy show for about 20 years as far as i can tell

22:48 You had Smack the Pony, Big Train, Fast Show, Goodness Gracious Me. The sketch in Big Train right when this American guy he's bought the Ritz hotel so he sat there in a meeting with like the manager and the chef and head butler or whatever I love this place. I'm so happy to... Oh man, I'm so excited! One little thing – I want to change the name to The Tits. And then they put it in his props and he's like, I love the name Tits. It's just brilliant

23:31 The Famalam, it's just genius. A work of genius! I promise you look it up and watch it come back and tell me... I would say tell me what you think about it but just share the love for it because it is absolutely incredible. Actually that's the most modern, best sketch comedy show of recent times but it's just one that nobody knows about because it was a BBC3 thing

24:18 So it's old or it's new? New, yeah. They've done about three or four series but for some reason it never massively took off. Well they put a lot of stuff on BBC... there is a lot of funny stuff on BBC3 actually but we are out the demographic! We're old middle-aged now so... Yes I am! We're watching reruns oh I saw the reruns of The Two Ronnies the other night There's a sketch for you. By the way, little rewind to something earlier... Brumadjim! I spelled it wrong. Quote, in context a vile Brummagem substitute for the genuine article. Cheap showy or counterfeit which is classic for some of... it's a bit harsh on some of the Brummies I know but also sometimes kind of fits says the man wearing one of his 50 black polo shirts. On the subject to comedy right did you see Backstreet's Coming To America 2 is out this week?

25:22 What do you think of that? What's your opinion because I've not seen it but obviously Coming to America 1 was one of the greatest comedy movies of the 80s. Yeah, absolutely classic! I just can't see it being good basically. Eddie Murphy... people don't even realise he played about six characters in the film Just absolute... where did it, I mean if they did the follow-up right it could have been funny. Oh yeah, I'm worried about it because he is he was an absolute genius He was off his moment you know that was he was energetic, he was young, he was breaking boundaries and he was doing things that nobody else had ever done before saying things and acting in a way that no one had ever come close to whereas now he's the institution

26:19 You know, it's not just that you aren't just looking for the new Eddie Murphy. You're looking for the new whatever the new Eddie Murphy was 20 years ago so I'm worried that he might... He might not be... He might be trying to recreate the magic instead of trying to recreate uh sort of trying to create something new yeah well here we go premieres on Amazon Prime on March 5th tonight So yeah, we'll catch up with that. I will see it and watch it. I've got a very high tolerance for crap films so... I'm gonna watch it because but also I want to re-watch the first one because I want to work out whether or not I can let my kids watch it

26:58 Oh yeah, I'm really struck by that. There's a lot of sexual innuendos in there for sure. Exactly and i'm okay with sexual innuendo because a lot of that is just going to go straight over their heads but there's some pretty basic stuff like at one point he's getting bathed and someone...a beautiful woman pops up from between his legs and says the royal penis is clean! I don't want to be sitting there with my kids whilst they're thinking that some woman is cleaning some man's penis um so I might leave that one for the time being True, but then obviously you've got different age kids. 1988 was coming to America so when that came out in 1988 holy moly! Yes that's 33 years ago. That's a third of a century ago I was 14 and i'll tell you what's weird when you're thinking about that What year? Was it 33 years before you were born? Oh I've done this before yeah You think like flipping black and white TV

27:58 Rock and Roll, Elvis. Because for me that was 1957 so that is as distant from my birth as 1957 is from my birth and it's just mental! Well I listen to Centerforce Radio a lot right? It's an old dance music station but it's an old pirate station from the rave days It's wicked because I read Centerfold magazine and i'm pretty sure that's the same sort of thing isn't it? I do believe so. You must get those on eBay, I reckon. Check the description for quality! Didn't we talk about that the other week about pornos and chucking them away? Probably So uh...I think I'm pretty sure what's coming to America at the movies yeah at the cinema

28:50 I don't know, our kids are so sanitised these days. What they get up to and what we get up to... Playgrounds! I was at the playground today it was a playground that i went to with my granddad used to take us there yeah and it's just boring now They're bloody safe, I've got to say that So safe! I would rather have keep the dangerous stuff but let them fall on the spongy floor Yeah, yes and no. See I don't... Okay the...I was gonna say no one ever died that's true but we used to have in our playground in Walthamstow there was half the equipment was like normal and then half of it with double height

29:42 The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie Jensen, Wrap Up, Eddie Murphy And then my brother has climbed up, I don't know he must have been eight nine years old. Climbed up onto the big big slide and decided to do a Superman down it and of course he's done a Superman and he missed the slide um and fell off the side of the thing onto his head cracked his skull open broke his skull and all that sort of stuff and i had to go i must have run about three miles around the shops trying to find me mum um he didn't die

30:28 So that's all right, isn't it? Yeah. That level of danger and risk is part of play surely there has to be a risk of death otherwise are you really alive so I was looking...I was on the internet today looking this up The Playground we went to used to have Witch's Hat. It was a triangle, like an ice cream cone type pointing up so the fat bit at the bottom and pointy bit up at the top and then three layers that you could climb up so you could get maybe 20 kids around the bottom layer

31:05 10 kids, well probably more than this actually if you really went for it. You rammed them on yeah! 20-30 kids in the bottom layer 20 in the middle and then ten on that top and then because with that many people on it would swing ferociously back and forward and then wham against this metal pole in the middle crazy and so much fun Yeah I've actually I didn't mention this, but i've actually got a picture of me being really dangerous in the park right here. It's just totally coincidentally and for those at home uh here here's a picture of me absolutely going full out mental on a swing there's metal there's grease um and there's a look in my eyes that looks like someone is gonna kill someone basically. Oh it's just crazy! So some of these pictures on the internet

31:57 Blimey, I feel like i've had a stroke. The um slide... That's not a hard word mate! A slide is not a hard word. I had a stroke, I got a stutter uh so here we are bring the screen in share share screen because this is a beautiful slide and come on come on Eileen there we go boom Sorry for the podcast listeners, but here is right. This is brilliant! So these slides are now you're talking about 25 foot up so it's definitely some of the height of an average house roof kids lining up behind each other on the ladder waiting to go down and then actually would have been slippery they make slides out of some weird metal these days that isn't slippery what the hell is that about?

32:44 Yeah, if you can't reach terminal velocity going down a slide then that is not good enough slide I gotta say. Absolute bullshit! These things used to be cobbled together out of bits of scaffolding no corners and even when they put down underneath these things they used to put these foam mats underneath them Everything you do, the whole point was to clear the mat. So when you're on the slide and want to whip off the end of a slide or swing around then you are absolutely trying to take off this side Look at this one, this is even older. I don't know if you've ever noticed in this picture you got all the kids playing on it um just focus on that a third of the way up on the left... The kid who's actually fallen off the scaffolding and you can just see him plummeting to the ground. In his black outfit yeah!

33:43 Brilliant. But no one died! If you had so many kids back then they'd be like, oh a bit like meaning of life, like oh pick that up for us would ya love? It's why I'm 106 I'm sure. There we go. Pick that up for us would ya love?! Oh man, so hot in the 90s. I thought we would do TV presenters this week? There were some there was some hot TV presenters in the nineties I gotta say! Do you want to go alternates because I've got several in mind that I wanted to mention Okay okay good Go on then To start with I'm gonna go for The Twins from The Fun House

34:33 Oh good, okay. Pat Sharp's Funhouse there are a pair of twins on there who were on it one more yellow one more red you know they're only still in their 40s they're only a few years older than me I'm quite pleased about that fact it gives me hope! I love the flipping fun house let's get a picture these two women up That was yeah that was one of the TV shows I wanted to go on the most Fun house, a whole lot of fun prizes to be won. It's a real wacky show where anything can go and I'm pretty sure they should do an adult version of it as well. Here we are there they are there's the two twins not bad okay well i was...I was..i won't steal the thunder because my thunder oh where is she gone

35:19 My thought was, I instantly thought about the big breakfast. Oh good shout! But my instant thought was actually Denise Van Outen Nice yeah yeah see a lot of fun, lot of mouth A lot of fun and yes she could definitely keep up with her boys but For me, I had a problem because she sounds very similar to my stepsister. And you can't fancy your sister basically it's just not the done thing! No although the most watched table on YouPorn would suggest otherwise which i find... I found bloody creepy but someone who didn't sound like my sister was Ulrich Johnson of Gladiators fame Oh good

36:08 Don't even need to Google her, just mental image because she was a hottie. I'm just having a little moment there! But even before her, because we're going TV presenters, Michaela Strachan Yes, yeah Michaela Strachan. Oh god she did that no yeah she was definitely an inspiration in many ways I bet she's much she I bet she's old enough she must be quite old She is older I should think by now but um she was in at what the Wide Awake Club? Yeah

36:45 Timmy Mallet and so on. I met Timmy Mallet when i was on Soccer AM once, he is every bit as mental as you think he is! You see the character he is? He's just that in real life there's no switch there's no character he is just constantly Timmy Mallett. Oh my Cadis Dracken holding up quite well actually let's bring her in here she comes she's holding out quite well Yes, yeah not unattractive at all I gotta say. Yeah Someone else who is still very very attractive? What was that? Swim suit shop. Yeah, it's obligatory. There we go excellent good work She did That animal program for ages Oh what was it like something like Springwatch or something with the mad bloke with the bald head and the hair around the sides

37:44 Terry Nuttle. Terry Nutkins! Surely he was checked out during the pedo... I'm not going near that sort of a statement. He must have had a file. Did they also have Chris Packham on there? Don't know who Chris Packham is He was a TV nature person and I quoted him, i was doing a talk this week on digital transformation. And I quoted him because he told me not told me personally at all...he told the world that um he would eat the last panda if it meant that the money they were spending saving pandas could actually be spent on saving things that mattered to the natural world and I thought that was an amazing statement so I loved it also made me wonder what panda tastes like? Chicken!

38:34 Another thing I wondered what tasted like for a long time was Philippa Forrester. And how did you get this question answered? Well I haven't yet, but Philippa if you're looking. I'm still very much available she was obviously not just on CBBC but she was half of the team on Robot Wars and as an absolute unapologetic geek i grew up on Robot Wars it was the best show in the reboot on telly was fantastic as well massively undervalued and I cannot believe they cut it

39:10 I do wish they'd have brought a bit of Philippa Forrester back. There you go, Glenn for your pleasure and there's picture of her on the Robot Wars set looking good. Is she Scott? No no well she is i don't know but um yeah she sounded very very plummy English it was incredible Yeah I don't know where i got that from. I think someone, somebody sounded a little less plummy um well...I don't know whether this might have been a bit late for you but Josie Darby? Josie Darby! Yeah Josie D'Apostrophe or yeah Apostrophe Arby she had a certain as the French say I Don't Know What about her now this is me filling it again Is this her?

40:02 The Dirt She Was In A Broom Cupboard For Free. Yes, yes that was her! Look at... I've got...I mean look at those are cheekbones you could grate cheese off of. Again doing our bain balance good there Glenn thank you for keeping us going here's one for the uh keeping our diversity up uh Zina Badawi That's a name i've not heard in a long time Oh man, it used to crack me up every time. I used to love watching the Channel 4 newsroom at uni obviously stoned out of our brains It would just be like... Tonight with Zina Badawi! No idea what Zina Badawi looks like actually. My friend my housemate she's taken especially Emma Swinburne, big-up Emma Swinburne

40:57 She used to take the piss out of me because I had such a... couldn't crack up enough. Zeena Badawi, news reporter What does she look like? Let's find out That's not her is it? No that doesn't look like someone I recognise. Clearly, i don't know how to spell Zina Badawi! That's probably what it is one name you will be able to spell though... ...is possibly uh i would say telepresenting royalty and that is the one the only The Rochester Vixen herself Kelly Brooke Well Glenn you teed this up as we prepped

41:44 You can't not. I would tee Kelly Brook up any day of the week Here she is, kind of big breakfast time Oh she was together with Jason Statham for a while Yeah she did and when we eventually end up together then we'll laugh about those days But yeah, late 90s early noughties Kelly Brook is possibly the most attractive person who's ever existed In fact, and I say this it's not just me saying that. This is science. They some you know...I say this in air quotes scientists took data from dozens and dozens of surveys about what proportions heterosexual men of a certain age bracket found most attractive and they came up with these dimensions these were obviously self-declared and so on

42:39 The photos and statistics of a bunch of celebrities at the time. Kelly Brook came out as having the perfect set of features in every way, shape and form. And I can't... you can't argue with science effectively she is exceptionally perfect! And in a similar way actually she does look like they in the movie Weird Science She looks a bit like who's that woman that comes out of the rocket She looks good. And also the great thing, what I love about Kelli Brook is as well as the looks and she has... she's able to have a laugh constantly. She doesn't take life too seriously. She's got a great sense of humour. Um, she's not as dumb as she makes out or as she's made out to be um i'm not saying she's an Einstein but she absolutely knows what she's doing uh and yeah just she's the perfect bundle all wrapped up in one beautiful form

43:38 And she's a good Kent girl as well. Yeah, Rochester lass! So basically you know I'm now local...I'm only 10 minutes down the road from you Kelly call me okay? Call me yeah you got my number turns out by the way back to something i mentioned a couple of weeks ago it's nothing to do with Maidstone or Old Maidstoney whatever You're either a man of Kent or a Kentish man depending on whether you live in the north of Kent or not in the North of Kent like north of Tunbridge or whatever the line is right so Just so we got some continuity there, people who are regulars on the show will know that we're talking about. I don't like to leave people hanging you know? Fill in the gaps fill in the gaps! On subject of gaps... There's only one other person I just wanted to make sure because you mentioned her The glorious feline form of Cat Deely Oh I was saving her

44:29 I was gonna see your Kelly Brook with a cat dealie. Uh-huh, did not want to let you miss out on that opportunity mate! Sorry i've got it all teed up here and SMTV... yeah if you're talking about morning fodder and the reason to stay in bed even though she wasn't with me she was a reason to stay I had a friend who was doing some waiting work for like, a corporate event type thing. And she happened to be there once and she asked for something for him like for a drink and he went off and got it and she said thank you... what's your name? Oh yeah thanks for that! ...and said his name. To this day he still quotes that as one of the greatest moments of his life The moment Cat Deeley used his name He knew he existed For that moment

45:19 I said SMTV, I loved it. Absolutely bloody brilliant! Too funny too funny although you did have to flick onto BBC to catch Trevor and Simon because they were... Yeah like they could swing their pants with the best of them. My kids still mention duvets and they've got no idea why they don't do duvets but they know they don't do duvets Ken & Eddie Kennedy The Barbers Oh those were the days, those were the days. So I do have another couple of topics on here right?

45:58 Went to the doctors today, went to the doctors because I mentioned... This is a start of a joke? No it's not a joke no. What is funny right is my Billy Rubens are high! Yeah I'm sorry, no I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about right now The doctor rings me up sods law because you have to wait you-the doctors now they call you So obviously they don't want loads of people going in and out the doctor for no reasons. So you ring up, have to wait chit chat and answer phone press one press two another 10 minutes oh hello yeah great um Oh yes I'm happy to tell you that you have qualified for a call back from the doctor! He'll be calling you on Friday what? On Friday like anytime yep Friday right so make sure you don't use the phone

46:51 Don't put the internet on, make sure the phone line is free. Keep it... don't leave it engaged. So right only have urgent calls she said if you want to speak to me. So sod's law I'm on a zoom call with someone this morning with her dad and as like okay it's gonna be the doctors and thankfully he said oh give your call back The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie Jensen, Wrap Up, Eddie Murphy,

47:38 So I'm thinking to myself, he's saying Billy Rubens. I can't even work out what that might be! Billy Rubens? Surely there is no medical thing called you Billy Rubens! That don't even make sense in Cockney rhyming slang. No, exactly! I'm thinking this... So okay iIm exactly on that and I'm kind of laughing because in my mind I'm thinking this is like a prank call, you're Billy Rubens or like how's your rubens mate? Or whatever. No so I had to write it down got him to spell out and then when I got off the phone I got on the tinter. So yeah Billy Rubens he goes uh he goes do you think you are yellow

48:26 Honestly, it was like a sketch show. Talking to sketches is like a sketch show. Do you look? Are you yellow? No no. Have you got yellow eyes now? And so yes it turns out your Billy Rubens... It's... Your liver keeps your Billy Ruben levels down And if you, because it goes into your liver and your liver breaks down these fatty cells. And if the liver's not doing its job right then your Billy Ruben level goes too high which causes jaundice. It is genuinely that! It's not like a... You've misheard or anything? It's genuinely called Billy Rubens. B-I-L-L-Y R-U-B-E-N-S. Your Billy Rubens. Oh mate every day is a school day

49:14 And I'm laughing. I'm like, I'm like flipping... Beavis and Butthead is this guy's telling me, you know saying I'm sorry can you say that in his Indian accent he's going Billy Rubens. And i'm going... but he's saying it as if you're meant to bloody know what that means! He's not saying you've broken your arm or you've got an appendix problem he's saying Billy fucking Rubens! That is my language I'm sorry, I said. I'm sorry i'm laughing. It just sounds funny doesn't it sound funny and he's not sure he can... No sir this is a very very serious matter well yeah that's it Is it bad? He said no if you're not yellow you're all right Mad mad yeah I'm glad I'm glad uh I'm now curious as to what my Billy Rubens level are oh I want Apple to make a Billy Rubens monitor on my iWatch

50:15 Oh yeah, and Apple Health. I've never had really bad news from doctors thankfully. Give it time! Yeah that's what... I've seen your mail just wait a week. It's fine. I juice a lot i feel like the fact that if I get bowel cancer or something I'm going to be livid all the things I shouldn't get will be anything to do with my gut or bowel basically It'll be horrific. I want my money back, I've got a flippin half-a-million quid's worth of juice, fruit and veg to come back! That couple this week they had the numbers for the 182 million euro win last weekend young couple and they play on there on the app yeah so she's put a tenner in and they played four times

51:12 And then it came up, they won last week. So they're like, woohoo! 182 million. They would have had to share with someone in Bulgaria or somewhere where no one except the Mafia has 182 million euros. There is a picture of them in The Daily Mail looking absolutely heartbroken Because they rang up Camelot or whoever the lottery people are and said, these are our numbers. And they said yes they ARE your numbers but you had not topped-up your credit in the app So yes, that was your normal numbers and you did play them the four draws before but because you had not put a credit in it You did not actually have a ticket in the draw. See this is why I don't do The Lottery for this exact reason! And the thing is there's so many different lottery things or This Draw or That Draw...I knew if I did it in one then my numbers would come out in the other ones so you end up having to do all of them and you end up spending 10, 20, 30 quid a week doing a fucking lottery

52:13 And they're quite young. So now... They can't, they've either got to go really zen on it and be like ah we weren't meant to have the money or they're going to just forever more. There'll be a school flipping fair... They'll be split up within a month. Yeah totally but there's a sport school fair and they'll come around and say would you want a raffle ticket? No I don't want a raffle! If I buy a raffle ticket, i'll win the lemon curd and someone else will win the flipping holiday to Tenerife. Don't you know who I am? Oh man well Glenn we could chat for hours but uh...

53:05 I've got stuff to do tomorrow, you gotta got stuff to do tomorrow. You gotta got a weekend... Literally nothing! I'm not getting out of bed if i don't have time watching the cricket at least tomorrow we'll still be playing and hopefully on Sunday even if we lose just give me something to do. I might go for a walk on Sunday let's go crazy but other than that I've got nothing to do no one to see Life is dull as ditch water, but I'm alive so it could be worse.
