WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.459
one two three four we have got some i can hear

00:00:03.459 --> 00:00:07.379
you now good good oh you must be listening to

00:00:07.379 --> 00:00:09.880
what comes through the recorder i must be listening

00:00:09.880 --> 00:00:12.980
straight through the desk oh that's not confusing

00:00:12.980 --> 00:00:19.539
at all Should we have eaten after we recorded?

00:00:20.679 --> 00:00:22.640
I've got to be honest, I was starting to feel

00:00:22.640 --> 00:00:24.440
a little bit sleepy before you said, all right,

00:00:24.480 --> 00:00:29.100
okay, let's go and record. All right, then. We

00:00:29.100 --> 00:00:30.760
need to stop going to that chip shop for that

00:00:30.760 --> 00:00:32.920
time. Well, maybe we should just stop getting

00:00:32.920 --> 00:00:36.100
a large portion of chips. We needed them today,

00:00:36.219 --> 00:00:40.659
though. To be fair, I ate almost all of my chips,

00:00:40.759 --> 00:00:44.520
and I don't normally do that. I'm glad we didn't

00:00:44.520 --> 00:00:47.149
get... Sausage as well. I could have easily eaten

00:00:47.149 --> 00:00:50.369
more, but I think you'd have regretted it. I'm

00:00:50.369 --> 00:01:00.289
regretting it now. So the second after. Poor

00:01:00.289 --> 00:01:05.170
food baby in your belly. He doesn't know what

00:01:05.170 --> 00:01:11.370
to do with itself. Like food alien. That was

00:01:11.370 --> 00:01:14.560
exactly what to do. That's what I'm afraid of.

00:01:16.260 --> 00:01:19.579
As long as it works its way out the correct direction.

00:01:20.079 --> 00:01:22.140
I don't want anything bursting out of your belly

00:01:22.140 --> 00:01:24.640
button. I'm looking forward to the correct way

00:01:24.640 --> 00:01:35.040
out. This is Rightly Used with Adam and Karen.

00:01:40.739 --> 00:01:44.700
Hello. We are awake. We are. But very, very tired.

00:01:44.939 --> 00:01:47.099
Oh, we're tired. Yeah, we are. This is becoming

00:01:47.099 --> 00:01:49.400
a bit of a theme. But this time it's because

00:01:49.400 --> 00:01:52.700
I did exercise. You've worked really hard today

00:01:52.700 --> 00:01:56.060
and I hung some washing outside and sat on a

00:01:56.060 --> 00:01:58.060
deck chair for 20 minutes until I got too warm

00:01:58.060 --> 00:02:01.019
and then went and took myself to bed for an hour.

00:02:02.599 --> 00:02:04.920
It was still warm there, though. It was, but

00:02:04.920 --> 00:02:07.400
at least I wasn't in direct sunlight. I feel

00:02:07.400 --> 00:02:09.740
like I've cleaned the car. I've done a damn good

00:02:09.740 --> 00:02:12.219
job of it. Bunny is looking sparkling. Thank

00:02:12.219 --> 00:02:15.060
you very much. I appreciate it. Thank you. Car

00:02:15.060 --> 00:02:17.280
cleaning there. I know, it needs to be a little

00:02:17.280 --> 00:02:20.139
bit more. I'm not so down to the details. I've

00:02:20.139 --> 00:02:22.939
got a clay bar. I don't know. I'm not made of

00:02:22.939 --> 00:02:25.539
money. I don't enjoy doing it that much. I should

00:02:25.539 --> 00:02:26.919
have put that on the Christmas list for you.

00:02:26.979 --> 00:02:30.000
No, no, no, no. Please don't. I might unlock

00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:33.370
a new obsession or something. That's a good point.

00:02:33.469 --> 00:02:35.669
The podcast already takes up enough time. Plus,

00:02:35.710 --> 00:02:40.229
you can't reach to the roof. I have to apologise

00:02:40.229 --> 00:02:42.129
for the last episode. It was already running

00:02:42.129 --> 00:02:44.930
short without likely used news. And then when

00:02:44.930 --> 00:02:48.550
I was editing, I found out only the start of

00:02:48.550 --> 00:02:50.969
the game is recorded, not even up to us starting

00:02:50.969 --> 00:02:54.689
actually playing Dumb Criminals. No idea what

00:02:54.689 --> 00:02:57.110
happened. We did record two parts, but it just

00:02:57.110 --> 00:02:58.729
picked up from where we were and there was references

00:02:58.729 --> 00:03:00.469
to our players and how far along we'd got in

00:03:00.469 --> 00:03:04.110
the game. So I can't even kind of merge the two

00:03:04.110 --> 00:03:06.169
bits together because there's no even start of

00:03:06.169 --> 00:03:10.069
gameplay. Yeah. Yeah, so it wasn't great. And

00:03:10.069 --> 00:03:13.430
so the bibliotek and the outro segments, they

00:03:13.430 --> 00:03:17.080
were stretched by around 5 % to 6%. hoping this

00:03:17.080 --> 00:03:20.120
record's okay fingers crossed it is kind of kind

00:03:20.120 --> 00:03:25.580
of noticeable well if people listen on like one

00:03:25.580 --> 00:03:28.120
and a half times speed they won't know it comes

00:03:28.120 --> 00:03:30.620
in sort of waves like i tried to get it consistent

00:03:30.620 --> 00:03:35.219
but no i don't know what happened there the argument

00:03:35.219 --> 00:03:38.979
for the fancy mixer becomes even stronger yeah

00:03:38.979 --> 00:03:43.620
plus fancy mixer yeah of course you I had a big

00:03:43.620 --> 00:03:45.879
night out. Me? I did. You did have a big night

00:03:45.879 --> 00:03:48.000
out. I did. A surprise theatre ticket. Yeah,

00:03:48.159 --> 00:03:51.460
Lexi took me on a date night. Short notice, I

00:03:51.460 --> 00:03:53.159
was supposed to be coming over here. It was the

00:03:53.159 --> 00:03:56.560
Thursday before the last bank holiday. And I

00:03:56.560 --> 00:03:58.419
texted him in the afternoon. I was like, oh,

00:03:58.539 --> 00:04:00.659
I'm not coming over tonight. I'm going out to

00:04:00.659 --> 00:04:04.180
the theatre with Lexi to watch Greg Davis do

00:04:04.180 --> 00:04:07.219
his current stand -up tour, which is called Full

00:04:07.219 --> 00:04:09.360
Fat Legend. And how many Gs are you pronouncing

00:04:09.360 --> 00:04:16.339
Greg Davis with? All of the Gs. Greg. Confessions

00:04:16.339 --> 00:04:19.600
from group text. How many Gs? I start throwing.

00:04:19.759 --> 00:04:22.600
is there an e in the survey sorry full confession

00:04:22.600 --> 00:04:26.560
i did spell greg davis like greg's the place

00:04:26.560 --> 00:04:29.620
where you go get pasties in group chat and then

00:04:29.620 --> 00:04:32.220
pretty much corrected myself almost immediately

00:04:32.220 --> 00:04:33.980
but not quick enough i think it's one of the

00:04:33.980 --> 00:04:35.819
things if you think about it you're gonna get

00:04:35.819 --> 00:04:37.560
it wrong whereas you just yeah how i'd normally

00:04:37.560 --> 00:04:39.199
do without thinking of it will be the right way

00:04:39.199 --> 00:04:41.800
yeah But did you have a good night? I had a great

00:04:41.800 --> 00:04:44.560
time. Alexei had a really good time too. I laughed

00:04:44.560 --> 00:04:47.839
so hard. At one point, I was nearly sick in my

00:04:47.839 --> 00:04:54.300
hands. That's not because I was turned off by

00:04:54.300 --> 00:04:57.480
it or anything. I was just laughing so hard I'd

00:04:57.480 --> 00:04:59.879
forgotten to breathe. I think there may have

00:04:59.879 --> 00:05:02.639
been like a hiccup -y type situation developing.

00:05:03.319 --> 00:05:06.360
But anyway, I managed to hold down whatever it

00:05:06.360 --> 00:05:08.220
was I'd eaten that day. I can't recall now. I've

00:05:08.220 --> 00:05:09.920
slept since then, thankfully. That's a quote

00:05:09.920 --> 00:05:13.199
for the poster. Yeah, I did tweet him. I think

00:05:13.199 --> 00:05:17.139
I sent him a tweet saying... Saw you at Swansea

00:05:17.139 --> 00:05:20.060
Arena last night. Laughed so hard I nearly hurled.

00:05:20.779 --> 00:05:24.420
I haven't seen a response to it. And it's fine

00:05:24.420 --> 00:05:26.860
if I never get one. But I've wanted to see Greg

00:05:26.860 --> 00:05:31.519
Davis live for a long time. And he did not disappoint.

00:05:31.779 --> 00:05:35.720
He was a real entertainer. And like all good

00:05:35.720 --> 00:05:38.779
comedians, engaged with the audience in various

00:05:38.779 --> 00:05:43.319
ways, lost track multiple times, laughed at himself

00:05:43.319 --> 00:05:46.120
because he knew what was coming. And there was

00:05:46.120 --> 00:05:48.379
a particular woman in the audience right at the

00:05:48.379 --> 00:05:51.259
front that had given him a very stern look early

00:05:51.259 --> 00:05:54.939
on. And he was like, I'm laughing because I know

00:05:54.939 --> 00:05:58.980
what I know what's coming. And I am already imagining

00:05:58.980 --> 00:06:04.300
the response from this woman. So that whole like.

00:06:04.720 --> 00:06:07.220
relationship became part of the show and there

00:06:07.220 --> 00:06:10.000
was another woman, believe it or not, there is

00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:12.899
another woman in Swansea that cackles louder

00:06:12.899 --> 00:06:19.319
than me. No. I shit you not. But, yeah, was Essel

00:06:19.319 --> 00:06:21.860
Sears there or something? She was out laughing

00:06:21.860 --> 00:06:25.720
me in the crowd. Because, you know, my laugh

00:06:25.720 --> 00:06:30.139
is pretty distinctive. when I get going you can

00:06:30.139 --> 00:06:32.740
spot yourself on the recording all the time all

00:06:32.740 --> 00:06:35.360
the cheap show lives I can hear my laughter in

00:06:35.360 --> 00:06:39.000
the background and then I send timestamp clips

00:06:39.000 --> 00:06:41.600
to my parents going look listen to this 10 seconds

00:06:41.600 --> 00:06:47.000
it's me laughing I was there what was the name

00:06:47.000 --> 00:06:51.750
of the talk Full fat legend. And it's brilliant.

00:06:51.930 --> 00:06:55.230
It's basically like a story of self -discovery

00:06:55.230 --> 00:06:57.870
of an upper middle -aged man who doesn't really

00:06:57.870 --> 00:07:00.689
know who he is, what he wants to do when he grows

00:07:00.689 --> 00:07:03.050
up and all of that stuff. It's all very relatable,

00:07:03.170 --> 00:07:06.730
very funny. I don't think Lexi fancies him quite

00:07:06.730 --> 00:07:10.269
as much now as she did before we saw the show.

00:07:10.410 --> 00:07:13.250
But yeah, Greg Davis live. Excellent gig. Just

00:07:13.250 --> 00:07:16.139
fucking brilliant. Yeah, really good. Follow

00:07:16.139 --> 00:07:19.439
-up as well. Gareth Gwynne of I'm So Not Over

00:07:19.439 --> 00:07:21.540
It, after you've mentioned yourself, forgot it.

00:07:21.920 --> 00:07:24.519
He said, I can share that video of Muppet him

00:07:24.519 --> 00:07:27.759
recounting the story of our Fletcher and the

00:07:27.759 --> 00:07:31.319
door pooper. And the photo when we both had our

00:07:31.319 --> 00:07:35.459
work parties coincidentally at the same night.

00:07:35.680 --> 00:07:38.639
We got back roughly the same time and they were

00:07:38.639 --> 00:07:42.759
coincidentally both theme parties. Gareth's theme

00:07:42.759 --> 00:07:46.339
was superheroes. He put a lot more effort in.

00:07:46.399 --> 00:07:49.540
He went as Inspector Gadget. Nice. My work party

00:07:49.540 --> 00:07:52.600
was Hollywood. I didn't shave and borrow a baseball

00:07:52.600 --> 00:07:55.459
cap. I went to sign up Bob. Yeah, well, yeah.

00:07:55.579 --> 00:07:57.399
I mean, if I had your looks, I'd have done the

00:07:57.399 --> 00:08:00.100
same. Very low effort. But you can see the photo

00:08:00.100 --> 00:08:03.120
and the video from... Well, sorry, the video

00:08:03.120 --> 00:08:06.259
and the photo is from 2007. Right. That'll be

00:08:06.259 --> 00:08:11.290
on likelyused .co .uk. Right. Other things that

00:08:11.290 --> 00:08:16.589
I've been up to recently. I bought a new to me

00:08:16.589 --> 00:08:20.829
mobile phone handset. It's like two or three

00:08:20.829 --> 00:08:23.370
upgrades from the one that I had. So same brand,

00:08:23.589 --> 00:08:28.290
same like professional level phone with camera

00:08:28.290 --> 00:08:31.069
and shit. Because I buy phones for the cameras,

00:08:31.110 --> 00:08:33.889
not for their functionality. Don't know why.

00:08:34.009 --> 00:08:36.789
Maybe I should just buy a camera. A camera that

00:08:36.789 --> 00:08:40.039
takes calls. Yeah. You can text on. Yes. Yeah.

00:08:40.200 --> 00:08:44.700
So, yeah, smart camera. Yeah. Yeah? Yeah, working

00:08:44.700 --> 00:08:46.799
it that way around. Nobody buys phones for the

00:08:46.799 --> 00:08:48.779
phones anymore. I wonder if smart camera would

00:08:48.779 --> 00:08:50.940
have worked better as a selling point than a

00:08:50.940 --> 00:08:55.039
smartphone. Hmm, interesting. Anyway. It might

00:08:55.039 --> 00:08:57.659
be a parallel universe. Yeah, maybe. Something

00:08:57.659 --> 00:09:01.440
tangented off. Yeah, yeah. Somewhere in another

00:09:01.440 --> 00:09:04.340
dimension, there's me going, I fucking love these

00:09:04.340 --> 00:09:06.100
smart cameras. Everyone's wearing their cameras

00:09:06.100 --> 00:09:08.879
around their necks. And that's all their life,

00:09:08.919 --> 00:09:11.320
is hanging around their necks. On big lanyards.

00:09:13.360 --> 00:09:18.419
Anyway, it took me two days. To transfer all

00:09:18.419 --> 00:09:21.360
of my data and shit over from my old phone to

00:09:21.360 --> 00:09:24.779
my new phone. Continuously? On and off for two

00:09:24.779 --> 00:09:30.320
days. It then downloaded every single photo from

00:09:30.320 --> 00:09:34.220
my... google cloud storage onto this new handset

00:09:34.220 --> 00:09:37.340
there's like 17 000 photos on this phone now

00:09:37.340 --> 00:09:40.259
that i've i'm gradually deleting like 900 or

00:09:40.259 --> 00:09:41.899
so at a time because by the time i've clicked

00:09:41.899 --> 00:09:44.480
that many i'm bored every photo you've taken

00:09:44.480 --> 00:09:46.519
since you've had a gmail address pretty much

00:09:46.519 --> 00:09:51.860
yeah um 2009 -ish. That's a lot of data. Yeah,

00:09:51.879 --> 00:09:53.659
it is. I wonder what Google has done with all

00:09:53.659 --> 00:09:57.539
of it. So yeah, I am glad that I've got the new

00:09:57.539 --> 00:10:00.240
phone. It works exactly the same as the old phone.

00:10:01.639 --> 00:10:05.820
But I have had it reaffirmed to me that I am

00:10:05.820 --> 00:10:09.980
a Luddite. I'm not good with technology. All

00:10:09.980 --> 00:10:12.960
of these clever copy my data, copy my phone apps,

00:10:13.179 --> 00:10:15.740
Google doing the direct data transfer, WhatsApp

00:10:15.740 --> 00:10:18.289
doing exactly the same. Can I figure that shit

00:10:18.289 --> 00:10:22.470
out? Can I fuck? Whatever happened to the days

00:10:22.470 --> 00:10:24.230
when you just copy everything to your SIM card?

00:10:24.269 --> 00:10:26.950
I know. And pop that in. I know. And because

00:10:26.950 --> 00:10:30.549
my old phone had two email addresses on it plus

00:10:30.549 --> 00:10:33.649
a SIM card, all of my contacts were saved in

00:10:33.649 --> 00:10:35.850
between three different places. So some of them

00:10:35.850 --> 00:10:38.450
were coming up as names with no numbers. Some

00:10:38.450 --> 00:10:39.929
of them were coming up as numbers with no names.

00:10:40.210 --> 00:10:42.490
And some people were on their duplicated times.

00:10:42.669 --> 00:10:46.710
I've figured it mostly out now. But yeah, new

00:10:46.710 --> 00:10:49.470
technology makes me feel very, very, very old.

00:10:49.850 --> 00:10:52.990
Yeah. Anything with touchscreen, I'm not a huge

00:10:52.990 --> 00:10:55.649
fan of. No, you're not. Give me some buttons

00:10:55.649 --> 00:10:58.009
and knobs and dials and switches. Yeah, yeah.

00:10:58.070 --> 00:11:01.370
Even a good old lever. Actual, tangible, mechanical

00:11:01.370 --> 00:11:04.950
things. If something goes wrong, if something

00:11:04.950 --> 00:11:07.649
breaks, it can be replaced as a single component.

00:11:08.409 --> 00:11:12.269
I like that. Yeah. Yeah, definitely. And you

00:11:12.269 --> 00:11:15.700
only need one size spanner. to change any part

00:11:15.700 --> 00:11:19.259
on whatever the thing is. Like an ancient Land

00:11:19.259 --> 00:11:21.200
Rover, where you just need a 12mm spanner and

00:11:21.200 --> 00:11:24.679
it fixes the world. Did I ever tell you one of

00:11:24.679 --> 00:11:29.340
the main reasons I really fucking hate touchscreens

00:11:29.340 --> 00:11:32.480
and my worst ever experience of touchscreens?

00:11:32.639 --> 00:11:38.019
I don't think so. I kept quiet, but yeah, I did

00:11:38.019 --> 00:11:42.159
used to do stuff on local radio years ago. The

00:11:42.159 --> 00:11:45.759
one time I covered a show, I mostly did at one

00:11:45.759 --> 00:11:49.659
station. It was an overnight show on three stations

00:11:49.659 --> 00:11:53.480
that were on the same network. Me and my mate

00:11:53.480 --> 00:11:56.899
who did the other Nights of the Week, I agree

00:11:56.899 --> 00:11:59.360
with him. It was cheaper for us to do that than

00:11:59.360 --> 00:12:01.360
for them to get a security guard to look after

00:12:01.360 --> 00:12:05.220
two buildings. So if there's somebody in there,

00:12:05.279 --> 00:12:08.000
it makes it sound like it's occupied. Yeah. Anyway.

00:12:08.779 --> 00:12:11.379
I went to this one other radio station and I

00:12:11.379 --> 00:12:15.539
got to cover one show, a drive -time show. Afternoon,

00:12:15.539 --> 00:12:18.659
everyone's coming home. Prime time. I was only

00:12:18.659 --> 00:12:21.379
ever shown how to use the Playout computer system

00:12:21.379 --> 00:12:24.500
with a touchscreen. Now, this touchscreen, it

00:12:24.500 --> 00:12:26.679
was just on one screen and it was an older type

00:12:26.679 --> 00:12:28.919
with that kind of plasticky coating that was

00:12:28.919 --> 00:12:30.899
over the top and kind of just a little bit away

00:12:30.899 --> 00:12:32.460
from the screen but also touching the screen.

00:12:33.399 --> 00:12:36.159
Radio presenters being absolute fucking morons

00:12:36.159 --> 00:12:38.620
that we are. How to work it is a big button that

00:12:38.620 --> 00:12:41.379
says go. Literally, that's it. Everything's built.

00:12:41.480 --> 00:12:43.299
All the songs are in there. All the jingles,

00:12:43.299 --> 00:12:45.659
they're all in order. All you have to do is talk.

00:12:45.759 --> 00:12:48.039
It even tells the computer when to stop by itself.

00:12:48.100 --> 00:12:50.360
So that's your time to talk for a bit. And when

00:12:50.360 --> 00:12:53.620
you're finished talking, press go. Right. Because

00:12:53.620 --> 00:12:57.019
that's the bit that every presenter, since the

00:12:57.019 --> 00:12:59.399
computer system was installed, however many years

00:12:59.399 --> 00:13:03.440
ago, so that's several thousand times over how

00:13:03.440 --> 00:13:07.120
many days and months and years, That touchscreen

00:13:07.120 --> 00:13:12.000
had worn off. And nobody had shown me any other

00:13:12.000 --> 00:13:17.940
way to use it other than press go. Oh. And nothing.

00:13:18.480 --> 00:13:21.639
Okay, there's just dead air now while I'm working.

00:13:21.639 --> 00:13:25.309
Oh, no. No other presenter came in. I went, oh,

00:13:25.409 --> 00:13:29.090
press F1 or 1, 2 or 3. Again, I'm just presuming.

00:13:29.090 --> 00:13:31.889
Yeah. I don't know how to press them in case

00:13:31.889 --> 00:13:35.110
something breaks. There were other DJs in the

00:13:35.110 --> 00:13:36.909
building. I couldn't leave the room. Nothing

00:13:36.909 --> 00:13:41.289
was happening. Yeah. Yeah. So somebody did come

00:13:41.289 --> 00:13:44.009
in to tell me, you know, there's dead air, don't

00:13:44.009 --> 00:13:47.529
you? Yes, I'm very aware of it. I think I was

00:13:47.529 --> 00:13:51.259
a receptionist. Little help? Oh dear. So yeah,

00:13:51.360 --> 00:13:53.179
that's the main experience with touchscreen and

00:13:53.179 --> 00:13:55.500
that's never ever going to leave me is touchscreens

00:13:55.500 --> 00:13:59.679
are shit. They can fail very, very easily and

00:13:59.679 --> 00:14:03.100
absolutely spectacularly. Catastrophic failure.

00:14:03.740 --> 00:14:06.120
At least it wasn't in charge of a car or something.

00:14:06.340 --> 00:14:09.379
Yeah, driving a train. I had some CDs with me.

00:14:09.419 --> 00:14:10.659
I thought, right, you're just going to find out

00:14:10.659 --> 00:14:12.440
what I've got in my bag today. This is what we're

00:14:12.440 --> 00:14:15.980
playing. Maybe we'll have some adverts if I can

00:14:15.980 --> 00:14:18.100
work stuff out. I don't know, but I'll just keep

00:14:18.100 --> 00:14:20.200
an eye out for 20 parts so I can do traffic and

00:14:20.200 --> 00:14:22.279
travel every 20 minutes and then o 'clock when

00:14:22.279 --> 00:14:24.539
it's the news. Other than that, I don't know

00:14:24.539 --> 00:14:27.460
what's going to be happening. Oh, no. I wasn't

00:14:27.460 --> 00:14:30.960
asked back to do a show. Were you not? Oh, that's

00:14:30.960 --> 00:14:34.299
a shame. Nor did anyone ask. What happened with

00:14:34.299 --> 00:14:37.120
nobody followed up? That's ridiculous. So none

00:14:37.120 --> 00:14:38.779
of them listened to their own radio station,

00:14:38.860 --> 00:14:41.100
apparently. I don't know if anyone complained

00:14:41.100 --> 00:14:42.980
after. At least somebody would have gone, can

00:14:42.980 --> 00:14:45.720
we review this with you? Let's talk through the

00:14:45.720 --> 00:14:49.899
tape. And nothing like that. No follow up. What

00:14:49.899 --> 00:14:52.360
the fuck was that about? You spent four hours

00:14:52.360 --> 00:14:54.200
here. You were in the other studio practicing

00:14:54.200 --> 00:14:56.159
on that computer. Yeah, nobody touches the screen

00:14:56.159 --> 00:14:58.740
in that as much, do they? Yeah. It's Studio 2.

00:14:59.059 --> 00:15:02.279
Oh, God. Oh, what a nightmare. Touchscreens go

00:15:02.279 --> 00:15:05.460
fuck right off. Yeah, fair enough. I'll give

00:15:05.460 --> 00:15:07.779
you that one. What have we got coming up on the

00:15:07.779 --> 00:15:11.120
show? Oh, Christ, you're asking me? Shall I say

00:15:11.120 --> 00:15:13.840
what we've got going on? Well, a very protracted

00:15:13.840 --> 00:15:17.620
introduction. We are going back to Johnny Turnip

00:15:17.620 --> 00:15:20.080
in Lightly Used News. And we've got to have an

00:15:20.080 --> 00:15:23.940
announcement. Oh, we do, we do. There's exciting

00:15:23.940 --> 00:15:26.940
things happening. I'll tell you in a little bit.

00:15:27.120 --> 00:15:31.179
And then I guess there'll be a game of some sort

00:15:31.179 --> 00:15:33.179
when we figure out which one we're going to play.

00:15:33.600 --> 00:15:38.200
It's Hat in the Box. Bibliotact to finish and

00:15:38.200 --> 00:15:41.440
then maybe a protracted outro where we talk about

00:15:41.440 --> 00:15:43.600
random shit. Or we could just say thanks for

00:15:43.600 --> 00:15:45.539
listening and end it there. We'll see what happens

00:15:45.539 --> 00:15:48.600
when we get there. Can I tell you two exciting

00:15:48.600 --> 00:15:51.000
things? Oh, yeah. Sorry, before I moved on to

00:15:51.000 --> 00:15:52.820
say what's come up in the show, I thought when

00:15:52.820 --> 00:15:54.960
you put your book down, I thought... No, no,

00:15:54.980 --> 00:15:57.220
no. Two exciting things. We've got more to talk

00:15:57.220 --> 00:15:59.139
about, yes. That you don't know anything about.

00:15:59.159 --> 00:16:01.980
No, no, that's why I was moving on. Okay, so...

00:16:03.189 --> 00:16:04.990
That motorbike that I told you about on eBay.

00:16:05.190 --> 00:16:07.830
Oh, yes. Jackson has had a look at it and he's

00:16:07.830 --> 00:16:09.549
like, oh, babe, that's so cute. You should so

00:16:09.549 --> 00:16:12.190
bid on that. Do you want to let the listeners

00:16:12.190 --> 00:16:15.659
know a bit of background? Okay, so Jackson, my

00:16:15.659 --> 00:16:21.700
beautiful bestie, has a motorbike. And like all

00:16:21.700 --> 00:16:23.799
motorbike enthusiasts, he wants to go out and

00:16:23.799 --> 00:16:28.000
ride it. And he's been teasing me for weeks now

00:16:28.000 --> 00:16:31.179
because I used to be a biker and then I had a

00:16:31.179 --> 00:16:35.600
very bad crash and it put me off, you know, keeping

00:16:35.600 --> 00:16:37.620
that bike and then getting another one later

00:16:37.620 --> 00:16:40.480
on down the line. And then it was another probably...

00:16:40.919 --> 00:16:43.080
six years before I felt confident enough to drive

00:16:43.080 --> 00:16:48.299
a car. So I've not really been that keen to go

00:16:48.299 --> 00:16:50.500
back to getting a motorbike, but Jackson, every

00:16:50.500 --> 00:16:52.620
opportunity he gets, I love you, Jackson, if

00:16:52.620 --> 00:16:54.580
you're listening, every opportunity he gets,

00:16:54.600 --> 00:17:00.059
he sends me memes, videos of people lounging

00:17:00.059 --> 00:17:02.960
around with their bikes, drinking a coffee, checking

00:17:02.960 --> 00:17:06.119
their watch, going, oh, God, when is my bestie

00:17:06.119 --> 00:17:10.329
going to buy a bike? So... I was looking at Honda

00:17:10.329 --> 00:17:14.950
Monkeys on Facebook Marketplace. And amazingly,

00:17:15.069 --> 00:17:18.450
they've all sold unless I want to go to Newcastle

00:17:18.450 --> 00:17:21.430
upon Tyne to go and get one, which I don't. So

00:17:21.430 --> 00:17:23.690
Honda Monkeys are out of the question. Bit of

00:17:23.690 --> 00:17:25.009
a ride back on the Monkeys. Yeah, yeah, just

00:17:25.009 --> 00:17:28.569
a tad. Trailer. Actually, it'd fit in the back

00:17:28.569 --> 00:17:34.829
of your... new van um i forgot we got that yeah

00:17:34.829 --> 00:17:37.490
yeah we're so professional guys we're so we're

00:17:37.490 --> 00:17:39.970
so two shows you have to talk about in the intro

00:17:39.970 --> 00:17:44.390
i know uh so anyway i found um alex moto 125

00:17:44.390 --> 00:17:50.069
relatively locally to where we live on ebay it's

00:17:50.069 --> 00:17:52.930
got a buy it now price of 1400 pounds and the

00:17:52.930 --> 00:17:56.430
first bid was 500 pounds It's got a couple of

00:17:56.430 --> 00:18:01.069
days left on it. I might have put a £700 bid

00:18:01.069 --> 00:18:04.990
on it this afternoon. And then told Jackson and

00:18:04.990 --> 00:18:07.990
he's like, yes, babe! Badass! And I'm like, yeah,

00:18:08.029 --> 00:18:10.210
I know. But if I win it, that means I've got

00:18:10.210 --> 00:18:14.009
to do my CBT. But I'm not bidding over £700.

00:18:14.230 --> 00:18:17.039
That's all I'm, you know. willing to part with

00:18:17.039 --> 00:18:19.900
well if you do get it it's a lot of money you've

00:18:19.900 --> 00:18:21.819
saved from the asking price that can go towards

00:18:21.819 --> 00:18:25.000
cbt yeah i mean even if i was the winning bidder

00:18:25.000 --> 00:18:26.880
the guy probably wouldn't let it go for that

00:18:26.880 --> 00:18:30.420
but i don't know what the rules are um so yeah

00:18:30.420 --> 00:18:34.920
so karen may or may not be adopting two more

00:18:34.920 --> 00:18:37.319
wheels at some point in the not too distant future

00:18:37.319 --> 00:18:40.200
and she doesn't really know how she feels about

00:18:40.200 --> 00:18:46.039
it and then the other exciting thing I am going

00:18:46.039 --> 00:18:56.380
on a gunt. A gunt? A what? A ghost, I was trying

00:18:56.380 --> 00:19:02.839
to... A ghost. A gunt. I'm going on a gunt. When

00:19:02.839 --> 00:19:07.160
are you going on your gunt? On the 6th of September.

00:19:07.900 --> 00:19:12.420
Well, where's Haunted? Somewhere in London. Do

00:19:12.420 --> 00:19:14.279
you know who's got a... Take with you, don't

00:19:14.279 --> 00:19:18.720
you? A jam jar. Exactly. You know I'm taking

00:19:18.720 --> 00:19:21.539
a fucking jam jar. You probably didn't have to

00:19:21.539 --> 00:19:22.839
take it out of your pocket. They might just be

00:19:22.839 --> 00:19:24.759
naturally attractive. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We don't

00:19:24.759 --> 00:19:27.440
know how that works as a ghost hunt. Sorry. Ghost.

00:19:28.019 --> 00:19:32.630
That's right. Hunting advice. So, yeah, I'm going

00:19:32.630 --> 00:19:34.990
on a ghost hunt. Oh, excellent. Yeah, I'm really

00:19:34.990 --> 00:19:37.589
pleased. Thanks to TJ for, like, getting Sanya

00:19:37.589 --> 00:19:40.109
to put me on the list and stuff. Thanks. Love

00:19:40.109 --> 00:19:42.029
you. Bye. Oh, you're going to have a great old

00:19:42.029 --> 00:19:44.549
time. Yeah, so, dear boss, please can I book

00:19:44.549 --> 00:19:46.950
the 8th of September off as annual leave for

00:19:46.950 --> 00:19:49.150
recovery? Thank you. Yeah, sure, take an extra

00:19:49.150 --> 00:19:51.809
day now. There we go. Sounds like you're okay

00:19:51.809 --> 00:19:54.390
for it. Yeah, that's all my exciting news. Do

00:19:54.390 --> 00:19:57.150
you want to tell people about your new baby?

00:19:57.410 --> 00:20:02.890
Oh, there is a Tethmobile 2. I got a lamb. Yay.

00:20:04.309 --> 00:20:07.309
That was exciting. Well done. We like the new

00:20:07.309 --> 00:20:09.690
van. They're not going to give a shit. It's got

00:20:09.690 --> 00:20:13.849
highway maintenance livery and a light bar and

00:20:13.849 --> 00:20:16.289
it's fucking brilliant. I love it. It's great.

00:20:16.329 --> 00:20:18.549
We'll have some fun in that caddy. I'm afraid

00:20:18.549 --> 00:20:22.410
I think. Well, that is what she said. I spent

00:20:22.410 --> 00:20:26.269
yesterday giving it a deep clean. Took the ply

00:20:26.269 --> 00:20:29.640
lining out of the back. And it's an ex -highway

00:20:29.640 --> 00:20:32.200
vehicle. There's bits of tarry pebbles and grit.

00:20:33.400 --> 00:20:36.240
Swept all that. I saw a video on YouTube about

00:20:36.240 --> 00:20:38.319
how good the little cleaning products are for

00:20:38.319 --> 00:20:40.039
such a cheap product. I got a bunch of them.

00:20:40.660 --> 00:20:43.059
They are very, very good. Oh, are they? Well,

00:20:43.140 --> 00:20:45.559
I mean, Bunny is looking beautiful if you use

00:20:45.559 --> 00:20:47.240
those on Bunny. Yeah, yeah. I was going to say,

00:20:47.279 --> 00:20:48.980
after I did that on the van, these are very good.

00:20:49.059 --> 00:20:50.640
I'm going to put them to some more use actually

00:20:50.640 --> 00:20:52.779
cleaning the outside of a car and, yeah, give

00:20:52.779 --> 00:20:55.490
your car a good clean over with it today. Yeah,

00:20:55.630 --> 00:20:57.630
get the middle of Lidl while they're there. Oh,

00:20:57.829 --> 00:21:00.390
excellent. Yay. A pod nod if you're on YouTube.

00:21:00.710 --> 00:21:03.470
Oh, I can't remember the guy's channel. Epic

00:21:03.470 --> 00:21:06.349
Car Detailing. He's the one that showed off all

00:21:06.349 --> 00:21:07.869
the products and how they should be used properly.

00:21:07.970 --> 00:21:10.230
Oh, really? Yeah, if you fancy having a good

00:21:10.230 --> 00:21:12.630
clean of your car on the cheap, get down to Lidl

00:21:12.630 --> 00:21:14.589
and get some of this. Oh, is it bloody oldie?

00:21:15.069 --> 00:21:17.210
I don't know. I'm terrible at recommending product.

00:21:17.309 --> 00:21:20.109
Whichever one does the Parkside stuff. We are

00:21:20.109 --> 00:21:23.630
not sponsored. In the middle aisle. Art, get

00:21:23.630 --> 00:21:35.029
working on it, will you? Now, we do have some

00:21:35.029 --> 00:21:37.529
exciting additional information to tell you about

00:21:37.529 --> 00:21:40.130
Johnny Turnip. God, it's just so exciting today.

00:21:40.509 --> 00:21:41.730
You're going to have to wait until the end of

00:21:41.730 --> 00:21:43.609
this instalment of Likely to Use These. Okay.

00:21:44.539 --> 00:21:48.119
to this. From the Abergavenny Chronicle by Tim

00:21:48.119 --> 00:21:54.480
Butters on Monday the 15th of July 2024. Abergavenny

00:21:54.480 --> 00:21:56.920
Man claims to have a vision that will change

00:21:56.920 --> 00:22:02.059
the world. And Abergavenny Man who went on a

00:22:02.059 --> 00:22:04.660
drinking holiday in Llandaffery has claimed that

00:22:04.660 --> 00:22:07.079
on the third night he was blessed with a vision

00:22:07.079 --> 00:22:09.440
that could turn the world on its head. Oh my

00:22:09.440 --> 00:22:12.660
god. Semi -professional paranormal investigator

00:22:12.660 --> 00:22:15.339
Johnny Turnip confessed to the Chronicle that

00:22:15.339 --> 00:22:17.140
he and his friends' quest to find the final resting

00:22:17.140 --> 00:22:19.160
place of King Arthur had hit a bit of a roadblock

00:22:19.160 --> 00:22:21.400
in the Carmarthenshire market town because we

00:22:21.400 --> 00:22:22.779
were bored out of our skulls and ended up drinking

00:22:22.779 --> 00:22:25.839
ourselves senseless every day and night. He explained,

00:22:26.059 --> 00:22:28.299
Our sacred mission to resurrect the once and

00:22:28.299 --> 00:22:30.279
future king had turned into a bit of a drinking

00:22:30.279 --> 00:22:32.940
holiday. Things came to a head on the third day

00:22:32.940 --> 00:22:34.980
when JFK Jones broke his ankle when we were racing

00:22:34.980 --> 00:22:36.980
down the overflow at Lindbrian Dam and Reservoir

00:22:36.980 --> 00:22:39.839
and Shovels. In hindsight, it was a silly thing

00:22:39.839 --> 00:22:43.220
to do, but so was visiting Llandaffery. Anyhow,

00:22:43.359 --> 00:22:45.640
after JFK had passed out with pain, we had to

00:22:45.640 --> 00:22:47.099
bite the bullet and take him to the nearest hospital.

00:22:47.519 --> 00:22:48.880
We dumped him there and said he'd done it playing

00:22:48.880 --> 00:22:51.039
football. After five minutes of waiting for him

00:22:51.039 --> 00:22:53.319
to regain consciousness, we began to get a bit

00:22:53.319 --> 00:22:55.400
twitchy, so we left the hospital, jumped in Big

00:22:55.400 --> 00:22:57.539
Tony's bed for a rascal, headed back to Llandaffery

00:22:57.539 --> 00:23:01.480
for a pint. As you do. Turnip explained, time

00:23:01.480 --> 00:23:03.740
is a habit of dragging in Llandaffery, so one

00:23:03.740 --> 00:23:06.220
pint turned into eight. And before you knew it...

00:23:06.440 --> 00:23:08.279
No one was in a fit state to pick JFK up when

00:23:08.279 --> 00:23:10.200
he called. We told him to get a taxi and meet

00:23:10.200 --> 00:23:11.539
us back at the castle where we were camping.

00:23:12.259 --> 00:23:14.180
In the meantime, we bumped into a Llandavery

00:23:14.180 --> 00:23:16.259
local called Cheeky Gill, who was telling us

00:23:16.259 --> 00:23:18.160
all about the town that had trapped him and turned

00:23:18.160 --> 00:23:22.660
him into a borderline alcoholic. When Cheeky

00:23:22.660 --> 00:23:24.720
Gill told us his name, Big Tony, Puerto Rico

00:23:24.720 --> 00:23:26.380
Paul and Fast Eddie were howling with laughter.

00:23:27.039 --> 00:23:28.779
Not so much because it was a weird nickname,

00:23:28.859 --> 00:23:31.839
but because Gill was anything but cheeky. He

00:23:31.839 --> 00:23:33.720
was a sort of moody bloke in the pub who scowled

00:23:33.720 --> 00:23:35.500
a lot and started fights with better looking

00:23:35.500 --> 00:23:37.559
and cooler men. He was alright with us, though.

00:23:37.660 --> 00:23:39.420
Probably because he could sense that under the

00:23:39.420 --> 00:23:41.519
expensive leisure wearing gold jewellery, we

00:23:41.519 --> 00:23:43.779
were all touched by the hand of fate. It's a

00:23:43.779 --> 00:23:48.559
GLC in Slender Free! Now is it? You know as I

00:23:48.559 --> 00:23:50.759
love you, because I fucks you and buys you checks.

00:23:52.000 --> 00:23:54.119
Let me tell you about this toilet I call our

00:23:54.119 --> 00:23:56.299
home, said Gil when he got stuck into his six

00:23:56.299 --> 00:23:59.230
rum and shrub. A century or two ago... There

00:23:59.230 --> 00:24:01.089
were 70 pubs in this neck of the woods for a

00:24:01.089 --> 00:24:03.410
lost soul to drink themselves blind. We even

00:24:03.410 --> 00:24:07.250
had a beer drinking gort. After saying his piece,

00:24:07.430 --> 00:24:09.930
Gil leaned back in his chair and eyed us all

00:24:09.930 --> 00:24:12.470
in turn as the sheer magnitude of having 70 pubs

00:24:12.470 --> 00:24:14.029
in a town with a population of a little over

00:24:14.029 --> 00:24:17.630
2 ,000 began to sink in. Puerto Rico Paul slurped

00:24:17.630 --> 00:24:19.990
his lager and said, A thousand pubs wouldn't

00:24:19.990 --> 00:24:22.150
be able to keep me in this crap house. Cheeky

00:24:22.150 --> 00:24:24.109
Gil eyed him furiously like maniacs in small

00:24:24.109 --> 00:24:26.099
towns often do. Leaned forward in his chair,

00:24:26.200 --> 00:24:28.460
slammed his fist down on the table, causing our

00:24:28.460 --> 00:24:30.599
drinks to spill, and roared, All right, you are,

00:24:30.680 --> 00:24:33.940
sir! Every eve I fall asleep drunk and hormonal

00:24:33.940 --> 00:24:35.819
with plans to sober up and leave in the morn.

00:24:36.279 --> 00:24:38.420
Yet the horror of opening your eyes ain't land

00:24:38.420 --> 00:24:41.500
every reason bearable without booze. So I reach

00:24:41.500 --> 00:24:44.299
for the nearest bottle. It's a vicious cycle,

00:24:44.420 --> 00:24:47.920
boys. Get out while you can. It's too late for

00:24:47.920 --> 00:24:51.759
the likes of me. Cheeky Gill then began crying

00:24:51.759 --> 00:24:53.960
uncontrollably and shouting for us to get out

00:24:53.960 --> 00:24:56.640
of the pub on his town. It was at this moment

00:24:56.640 --> 00:24:58.200
some old -timer at the bar pulled out a guitar

00:24:58.200 --> 00:25:00.599
and started singing Mr. Tamperine Man. Oh, God.

00:25:01.279 --> 00:25:04.079
Before long, the whole pub, all seven of them,

00:25:04.119 --> 00:25:07.000
including Gill, were singing merrily along. And,

00:25:07.000 --> 00:25:08.660
although we like to sing along as much as the

00:25:08.660 --> 00:25:10.680
next man, it had been a long day and decided

00:25:10.680 --> 00:25:13.539
to return to the castle and get some kip. Sensible.

00:25:14.380 --> 00:25:16.440
We were abandoning our quest to find King Arthur

00:25:16.440 --> 00:25:18.640
and leave in the morning. The cost of staying

00:25:18.640 --> 00:25:21.059
in Llandaffery was too high. Our collective mental

00:25:21.059 --> 00:25:22.839
health had taken a proper kicking as a breaking

00:25:22.839 --> 00:25:25.859
point. We'd seen a lot on our travels, but nothing

00:25:25.859 --> 00:25:27.359
had quite prepared us for the town that time

00:25:27.359 --> 00:25:29.920
forgot. Turnip explained that as they settled

00:25:29.920 --> 00:25:31.579
down in their sleeping bags for the last night

00:25:31.579 --> 00:25:33.420
amongst the empty beer cans and dog ends that

00:25:33.420 --> 00:25:35.980
lay scattered amongst the castle ruins, his last

00:25:35.980 --> 00:25:38.579
thought before sleep stole his eyes was, now

00:25:38.579 --> 00:25:40.480
that he's probably broken his ankle, I wonder

00:25:40.480 --> 00:25:42.339
if JFK Jones will have to wear one of those big

00:25:42.339 --> 00:25:45.220
ski boot things. And he fell asleep laughing.

00:25:49.079 --> 00:25:52.079
Yet before dawn, he had what he believed was

00:25:52.079 --> 00:25:57.400
a waking dream or mystical vision. At first,

00:25:57.500 --> 00:25:59.380
he was just like any other morning in Llandaffry,

00:25:59.480 --> 00:26:02.319
explained Turnip. The general sense of oppression

00:26:02.319 --> 00:26:04.420
and grey clouds was broken only by the occasional

00:26:04.420 --> 00:26:06.480
crow that looked like he wanted to eat my eyes.

00:26:08.000 --> 00:26:09.880
I strolled round to see the rest of the boys

00:26:09.880 --> 00:26:12.099
asleep and snoring, and as I strolled out of

00:26:12.099 --> 00:26:14.099
the castle ruins to have a slash, I had the shock

00:26:14.099 --> 00:26:16.710
of my life. That big statue of Llewellyn Epgarvidus,

00:26:16.710 --> 00:26:18.470
usually perched on the rock there, was walking

00:26:18.470 --> 00:26:21.490
towards me. Beneath the helmet, I could see nothing

00:26:21.490 --> 00:26:23.450
but these big red eyes glowing in the darkness.

00:26:23.849 --> 00:26:26.269
As it approached, I felt compelled to go down

00:26:26.269 --> 00:26:29.329
on one knee and said, My prince, you honour me

00:26:29.329 --> 00:26:32.609
with your presence. Those red demonic eyes continued

00:26:32.609 --> 00:26:34.890
to stare right through me, and as he pointed

00:26:34.890 --> 00:26:36.609
his spear at my head, I thought he was going

00:26:36.609 --> 00:26:39.069
to impale me. But he simply said in a voice that

00:26:39.069 --> 00:26:41.029
sounded like twenty mouths speaking at once,

00:26:42.190 --> 00:26:45.089
There now sits at the head of this country a

00:26:45.089 --> 00:26:47.990
knight that has neither been tested in combat,

00:26:48.289 --> 00:26:52.210
shaped by adversity, or proved worthy of the

00:26:52.210 --> 00:26:56.710
seven trials. This shames the land and the generations

00:26:56.710 --> 00:27:00.269
of blood spilled on it. What do you say to this?

00:27:00.970 --> 00:27:03.349
Well, I didn't vote Labour if that's what you're

00:27:03.349 --> 00:27:06.950
getting at. I replied, then again, I never vote

00:27:06.950 --> 00:27:10.029
because the government always gets in. Turnip

00:27:10.029 --> 00:27:13.019
explained. He seemed to like the wisecrack, and

00:27:13.019 --> 00:27:15.099
for a moment, those red eyes of his turned blue

00:27:15.099 --> 00:27:18.180
before he boomed. Yours are of a common clay,

00:27:18.400 --> 00:27:22.720
Turner, much like the great Arthur himself. Now,

00:27:22.900 --> 00:27:26.640
more than ever, this sacred vial has need of

00:27:26.640 --> 00:27:30.059
men such as you. Turner revealed, When the Ghostknife

00:27:30.059 --> 00:27:31.700
finally revealed where King Arthur was buried

00:27:31.700 --> 00:27:33.799
and where Excalibur could be found, I felt like

00:27:33.799 --> 00:27:35.400
I have since I was a hyperactive toddler that

00:27:35.400 --> 00:27:38.140
broke things a lot. I was a born prince of the

00:27:38.140 --> 00:27:40.259
universe, and with the power to change the world,

00:27:40.359 --> 00:27:42.819
and come hell or land every, I was going to do

00:27:42.819 --> 00:27:48.099
exactly that. To be continued. Brilliant. Now,

00:27:48.140 --> 00:27:51.420
the exciting news. Tim Butters has collected

00:27:51.420 --> 00:27:53.859
Johnny Turnip's exploits and adventures in a

00:27:53.859 --> 00:27:56.460
new book. He hopes will serve as both a warning

00:27:56.460 --> 00:27:59.920
and something of a Bible for enthusiastic amateurs.

00:28:00.160 --> 00:28:04.099
Yes, my God! What you need to do is beg, borrow,

00:28:04.279 --> 00:28:06.930
or buy a copy of my book today. It won't change

00:28:06.930 --> 00:28:08.589
your life. Well, that was my ghostwriter, Tim

00:28:08.589 --> 00:28:11.250
Butters, using a fixed rate. But it could just

00:28:11.250 --> 00:28:13.450
as well change mine. Love it. That's the quote

00:28:13.450 --> 00:28:15.509
that comes with the book. Yes! It's called The

00:28:15.509 --> 00:28:18.430
Manifest Trials and Tribulations of Johnny Turnip.

00:28:18.470 --> 00:28:20.930
It contains the semi -professional paranormal

00:28:20.930 --> 00:28:25.869
investigator's complete story, unabridged, unfiltered,

00:28:26.029 --> 00:28:30.160
unadulterated, and unexplained. Amazing. It's

00:28:30.160 --> 00:28:32.160
available at Amazon. We've both got a copy of

00:28:32.160 --> 00:28:33.900
ourselves. We paid for them. They weren't a gift.

00:28:34.019 --> 00:28:37.900
Sorry. We got them soon. Thanks, Tim. Yep. Just

00:28:37.900 --> 00:28:39.519
got them straight away. They got here really

00:28:39.519 --> 00:28:41.180
quickly. Yeah, it was like 24 hours delivery.

00:28:41.440 --> 00:28:43.660
Thanks, Amazon. Thank you very much, Mr. Butters.

00:28:43.880 --> 00:28:46.319
You'll find a link in the blog post for the episode

00:28:46.319 --> 00:28:50.759
at lightlyused .co .uk. I'm so fucking chuffed

00:28:50.759 --> 00:28:53.119
that he emailed us. Thank you, Mr. Butters. And

00:28:53.119 --> 00:28:56.009
thank you for not telling us off. I genuinely

00:28:56.009 --> 00:28:57.309
thought it was going to be a cease and desist

00:28:57.309 --> 00:28:59.869
and telling us off for really doing a disservice.

00:29:00.130 --> 00:29:02.269
Like, when you tell me that you, like, it was

00:29:02.269 --> 00:29:03.630
like nearly the middle of the night, I think,

00:29:03.630 --> 00:29:05.710
when you spotted it in the inbox. And you were

00:29:05.710 --> 00:29:08.869
like, oh my God, Tim Butters has sent us an email.

00:29:09.529 --> 00:29:10.849
I don't know what to do with it. And I'm like,

00:29:10.970 --> 00:29:14.309
open it, open it, open it. And Adam's like, what

00:29:14.309 --> 00:29:16.589
if it's the cease and desist? And I'm like, fucking

00:29:16.589 --> 00:29:20.609
open it. No, we weren't told off. Oh my God.

00:29:24.970 --> 00:29:27.269
We do have an update on the bike auction. We

00:29:27.269 --> 00:29:30.470
do. There are three days, 14 hours left. So it'll

00:29:30.470 --> 00:29:32.609
be well sold by the time you hear this. But as

00:29:32.609 --> 00:29:34.589
we're recording this... Yeah, as we're recording

00:29:34.589 --> 00:29:36.529
this, I'm the highest bidder at the moment. We'll

00:29:36.529 --> 00:29:39.369
see what happens. We will keep you updated. We

00:29:39.369 --> 00:29:41.049
will. I'll let you know in the next episode.

00:29:41.369 --> 00:29:51.549
But right now... It's time for... Oh, excuse

00:29:51.549 --> 00:29:55.150
me. Tat in the box, tat in the box. Tat in the

00:29:55.150 --> 00:29:57.950
box. Tat in the box. Tat in the box. Tat in the

00:29:57.950 --> 00:30:01.930
box. Tat in the box. Tat in the box. And it's

00:30:01.930 --> 00:30:05.150
my turn to go first. Hooray! My eyes are already

00:30:05.150 --> 00:30:09.910
closed. My notes are peeking out of my box. Well,

00:30:09.910 --> 00:30:11.829
I don't... I need those there. I don't peek at

00:30:11.829 --> 00:30:17.930
your box. That's because I wear trousers. Only

00:30:17.930 --> 00:30:22.029
a Monday to Friday. It's the weekend as we're

00:30:22.029 --> 00:30:25.109
recording this, listeners. It's hot pants weather,

00:30:25.170 --> 00:30:28.230
ladies and gentlemen. Right, you need to put

00:30:28.230 --> 00:30:30.410
your hands out. Hands are out. Eyes are closed.

00:30:32.990 --> 00:30:37.069
Please forgive the straining noises. Item is

00:30:37.069 --> 00:30:41.700
between your hands and facing you. Bring your

00:30:41.700 --> 00:30:43.720
hands closer together. My hands are getting quite

00:30:43.720 --> 00:30:45.500
close. It's not another fucking sausage, is it?

00:30:45.500 --> 00:30:47.859
It feels quite narrow so far. Well, that's quite

00:30:47.859 --> 00:30:50.140
girthy if I recall the description. Oh, it's

00:30:50.140 --> 00:30:55.180
a small thing. Oh. Oh. Kind of disappointing.

00:30:57.960 --> 00:31:07.980
Never have it. Genuinely felt smaller. What about

00:31:07.980 --> 00:31:10.519
the knobbly bit? I mean, it does happen well.

00:31:10.720 --> 00:31:13.740
It does have knobbly bits. Those could be feet,

00:31:13.819 --> 00:31:17.880
I suppose. Does it have a front and a back? Yeah,

00:31:17.880 --> 00:31:21.559
it was. Yeah, that's the front, yes. That could

00:31:21.559 --> 00:31:26.220
be like a pig's nose. It feels like it's wearing

00:31:26.220 --> 00:31:34.160
maybe like a fireman's helmet. And that part

00:31:34.160 --> 00:31:45.700
is quite shiny. Nice ridge. Thank you. Sounds

00:31:45.700 --> 00:31:51.420
like it's made of, I don't know, maybe like poured

00:31:51.420 --> 00:31:57.500
clay or resin. It doesn't feel plastic. Feels

00:31:57.500 --> 00:32:01.720
like maybe it's painted. Oh, can you guess the

00:32:01.720 --> 00:32:07.230
colour? Well, if that's a fireman's helmet. That

00:32:07.230 --> 00:32:11.690
should be black, right? Maybe with yellow there?

00:32:11.829 --> 00:32:14.390
I don't know. I don't know any firemen. And it

00:32:14.390 --> 00:32:16.190
should be in red or blue. I'm trying to remember

00:32:16.190 --> 00:32:19.150
London's burning now. And that's the front? Yes.

00:32:19.650 --> 00:32:23.630
So is it on its knees? I can't tell you what

00:32:23.630 --> 00:32:26.609
this alleged fireman is doing. Those could be

00:32:26.609 --> 00:32:32.490
wheels. Is it... I don't fucking know. It feels

00:32:32.490 --> 00:32:39.019
like a pig. Wearing a fireman's helmet, but he

00:32:39.019 --> 00:32:41.200
doesn't have a tail. Do you want to open your

00:32:41.200 --> 00:32:44.440
eyes? It could also be like some sort of vehicle

00:32:44.440 --> 00:32:49.640
with a character in it that is fireman Samish.

00:32:49.759 --> 00:32:53.000
I don't know. I genuinely don't know what it

00:32:53.000 --> 00:32:57.400
is. How about this? Oh, it's a little Hetty.

00:32:58.659 --> 00:33:00.819
I've had to hide that from my tech elves in the

00:33:00.819 --> 00:33:04.119
back room, just in case you seem to know too

00:33:04.119 --> 00:33:06.119
much of my stuff. If it's not there for about

00:33:06.119 --> 00:33:08.559
a month or so, maybe you'll forget it exists.

00:33:08.940 --> 00:33:10.940
My attention span isn't that long. Oh, cool.

00:33:11.059 --> 00:33:14.460
So it is wearing, effectively, a black fireman's

00:33:14.460 --> 00:33:16.640
helmet, like the top of a Henry Hoover. And the

00:33:16.640 --> 00:33:19.000
body of the Hoover itself, or vacuum, I should

00:33:19.000 --> 00:33:20.319
say, because it's not a Hoover, it's a vacuum,

00:33:20.500 --> 00:33:23.059
is purple, with a smiley face and a little black

00:33:23.059 --> 00:33:24.980
button nose, which is what felt like the pig's

00:33:24.980 --> 00:33:28.500
nose. Yeah, it is. Some kind of Henry variant.

00:33:28.880 --> 00:33:33.079
I think it's a Hetty. I don't. Now I shall tell

00:33:33.079 --> 00:33:35.720
you why. Okay. Pneumatic was founded in Somerset

00:33:35.720 --> 00:33:39.809
in 1969. Nice. The first vacuum cleaner designs

00:33:39.809 --> 00:33:42.230
are made of a combination of oil drums and everyday

00:33:42.230 --> 00:33:44.250
components that are readily available, such as

00:33:44.250 --> 00:33:47.170
suitcase handles, furniture casters, and domestic

00:33:47.170 --> 00:33:50.170
washing up bowls, to make them simpler and reliable

00:33:50.170 --> 00:33:52.609
for commercial use. So if you needed parts, they're

00:33:52.609 --> 00:33:55.309
readily available. But the first series commercial

00:33:55.309 --> 00:33:58.190
vacuum cleaners were made of steel, the NV2 and

00:33:58.190 --> 00:34:02.109
NV250. Apparently the majority of them are still

00:34:02.109 --> 00:34:05.089
working over 30 years later. Again, my source

00:34:05.089 --> 00:34:07.190
is Pneumatic's website for that. Fair enough.

00:34:07.490 --> 00:34:10.809
And they say they still supply parts for them.

00:34:10.869 --> 00:34:13.309
Even the very first vacuum cleaner they sold,

00:34:13.409 --> 00:34:15.570
you can still get parts for it. No way, that's

00:34:15.570 --> 00:34:18.710
insane. The Henry Vac model is as old as me.

00:34:18.989 --> 00:34:22.480
Created in 1981. Instantly recognisable to most

00:34:22.480 --> 00:34:24.900
Brits and probably quite a few places over the

00:34:24.900 --> 00:34:27.500
world by now, to be fair. Hotels and schools

00:34:27.500 --> 00:34:29.579
and things like that, or even people's houses.

00:34:29.579 --> 00:34:31.960
They're good industrial hoovers. So I haven't

00:34:31.960 --> 00:34:35.519
been able to find anything 100 % about this very

00:34:35.519 --> 00:34:40.079
small purple toy. In 2014, to celebrate the 150th

00:34:40.079 --> 00:34:42.179
anniversary of the original John Lewis store

00:34:42.179 --> 00:34:45.059
opening in Oxford Street in London, two exclusive

00:34:45.059 --> 00:34:49.889
Henry variants were made. John and Lewis. John

00:34:49.889 --> 00:34:53.690
was green. Yeah. Lewis was purple. Oh, so he's

00:34:53.690 --> 00:34:56.670
a Lewis. But they did say John and Lewis, where

00:34:56.670 --> 00:34:58.250
we would say Henry, they had been named them.

00:34:58.250 --> 00:35:01.409
I'm guessing maybe it might be too small. I couldn't

00:35:01.409 --> 00:35:04.190
find anything to say that a promotional toy was

00:35:04.190 --> 00:35:06.670
given away with them, but I think Hetty has eyelashes

00:35:06.670 --> 00:35:09.090
as well. Ah, yeah. So, yeah, that's the only

00:35:09.090 --> 00:35:11.050
thing I can find relating to a purple version

00:35:11.050 --> 00:35:15.190
of a Henry Hoover or Henry Vacuum is a John Lewis

00:35:15.190 --> 00:35:18.039
promotional one, and this might be Lewis. And

00:35:18.039 --> 00:35:19.599
apparently they're only available for a few months.

00:35:19.739 --> 00:35:23.599
Cool. I did find one online. They said it was

00:35:23.599 --> 00:35:27.039
sold out to come for about £260. I don't know

00:35:27.039 --> 00:35:29.780
how long ago that was online. And it's from photos.

00:35:29.820 --> 00:35:33.480
It looks like, yeah, Lewis is a bit of a darker

00:35:33.480 --> 00:35:36.159
shade of purple than the actual toy. I can't

00:35:36.159 --> 00:35:38.420
find anything at all about this toy. I wonder

00:35:38.420 --> 00:35:41.559
if that's just a knockoff one. So it doesn't

00:35:41.559 --> 00:35:43.739
say pneumatic or anything on it. It doesn't say

00:35:43.739 --> 00:35:46.420
anything on it. No. It's cool, though. I like

00:35:46.420 --> 00:35:48.630
him. I can only think. The official company would

00:35:48.630 --> 00:35:50.349
go through the trouble of making that. Yeah.

00:35:50.809 --> 00:35:53.949
Otherwise, you'd just make an actual one instead

00:35:53.949 --> 00:35:56.630
of the toy. Maybe. Instead of a model, sorry.

00:35:56.750 --> 00:35:58.730
You'd have actual working wheels and stuff on

00:35:58.730 --> 00:36:01.929
it. Yeah, like a matchbox type set up. Yeah,

00:36:01.969 --> 00:36:05.449
I think this is a Lewis. I would like to agree

00:36:05.449 --> 00:36:09.550
with you. All right. It's my turn to guess. Cool.

00:36:09.710 --> 00:36:12.170
All right, close your eyes. Eyes are closed.

00:36:12.349 --> 00:36:16.110
Is that far enough apart? Oh, yeah, plenty. Okay.

00:36:16.289 --> 00:36:19.590
You're being very optimistic. I shall do the

00:36:19.590 --> 00:36:21.650
shoe -sizer thing of bringing them closer together.

00:36:21.929 --> 00:36:25.489
Okay. I said to you earlier, I'm pretty sure

00:36:25.489 --> 00:36:26.630
you're going to guess what this is immediately.

00:36:26.849 --> 00:36:29.010
I've tried to avoid bringing this for a while

00:36:29.010 --> 00:36:33.550
because it is really obvious, but it is on the

00:36:33.550 --> 00:36:35.769
table in front of you. Bring your hands together.

00:36:36.429 --> 00:36:41.469
Oh, there we go. Right, it's... It's an action

00:36:41.469 --> 00:36:45.150
figure of some sort. Is it the orange monster

00:36:45.150 --> 00:36:47.190
that we're not quite sure what franchise it's

00:36:47.190 --> 00:36:51.570
from? It is the Hanna -Barbera. Yeah. Oh! I was

00:36:51.570 --> 00:36:53.230
trying to guess if it had the jaggedy mouth.

00:36:53.309 --> 00:36:54.750
That's pretty much, other than being an action

00:36:54.750 --> 00:36:56.570
figure, that's the only distinctive feature I

00:36:56.570 --> 00:36:59.690
remember it had on it. So this is the 10 ,000

00:36:59.690 --> 00:37:03.070
-volt ghost. It looks awesome. From the Scooby

00:37:03.070 --> 00:37:05.389
-Doo series in 2002. Oh, it is a Scooby -Doo.

00:37:05.449 --> 00:37:08.750
Excellent. Produced by Equity Marketing and it's

00:37:08.750 --> 00:37:12.130
part of the Villains action figure line. It is...

00:37:12.380 --> 00:37:17.179
Bright orange with yellow lightning and red bushy

00:37:17.179 --> 00:37:19.739
eyebrows, I guess. Yeah, not quite a monobrow,

00:37:19.760 --> 00:37:21.340
but almost goes all the way around his head.

00:37:21.360 --> 00:37:23.639
It does almost go all the way around. Like wraparound

00:37:23.639 --> 00:37:27.400
eyebrows. Yeah. He's got articulated limbs, so

00:37:27.400 --> 00:37:33.420
you can pose him roughly. He cost me £1 .99 from...

00:37:33.420 --> 00:37:36.010
Do you remember that little... cafe charity shop

00:37:36.010 --> 00:37:38.090
in cardiff that we went to that last time we

00:37:38.090 --> 00:37:40.489
walked past was closed down i regret not getting

00:37:40.489 --> 00:37:43.369
that big lego head from yeah it's from there

00:37:43.369 --> 00:37:44.909
i can't remember the name of the charity shop

00:37:44.909 --> 00:37:47.989
they don't exist anymore there's lots of these

00:37:47.989 --> 00:37:52.570
on ebay And they are averaging £20 plus. Oh,

00:37:52.570 --> 00:37:55.429
wow. So I did okay with £1 .99. In fact, I think

00:37:55.429 --> 00:37:57.869
we may have paid like £1 .97 for it because I

00:37:57.869 --> 00:37:59.710
think we were short on change. Oh, yeah. There

00:37:59.710 --> 00:38:04.070
are some rare versions of this character. Two

00:38:04.070 --> 00:38:07.110
particular examples exist. Some of them have

00:38:07.110 --> 00:38:10.650
glow -in -the -dark attributes to them. I'm guessing

00:38:10.650 --> 00:38:12.469
the zigzags might glow in the dark. Yeah, that's

00:38:12.469 --> 00:38:15.110
what I was thinking. I don't believe this one

00:38:15.110 --> 00:38:18.610
glows in the dark at all. And the other rare

00:38:18.610 --> 00:38:21.789
example was in the first run, a bunch of the

00:38:21.789 --> 00:38:24.489
action figures got sent out with two left arms.

00:38:24.690 --> 00:38:28.650
Oh. So they have hands facing the same direction

00:38:28.650 --> 00:38:31.429
on both sides of their body. So yeah, that's

00:38:31.429 --> 00:38:34.170
what he is. He's a little... Adam's shoving it

00:38:34.170 --> 00:38:36.030
up his T -shirt to see if it's glowing. I don't

00:38:36.030 --> 00:38:38.630
think it does. No, I'm pretty sure it doesn't.

00:38:38.630 --> 00:38:40.869
I think they're just quite light lines against

00:38:40.869 --> 00:38:44.469
a translucent orange body. Yeah, but he's a nice

00:38:44.469 --> 00:38:47.829
thing to... He's quite tactile. He's solid, hard

00:38:47.829 --> 00:38:50.309
plastic. Looks like an evil honey monster. Yeah,

00:38:50.329 --> 00:38:53.650
he does. Yes, he absolutely does. Think of the

00:38:53.650 --> 00:38:57.949
honey monster, but bad. That's my dude. No, I

00:38:57.949 --> 00:39:00.409
still think that's an amazing figurine. I'm really

00:39:00.409 --> 00:39:02.389
chuffed with him. I'm really pleased with him.

00:39:02.570 --> 00:39:05.750
Excellent items. Photos on the blog, lightlyused

00:39:05.750 --> 00:39:13.230
.co .uk. Okay, this is our second attempt. at

00:39:13.230 --> 00:39:16.269
playing this board game. And sorry if I sound

00:39:16.269 --> 00:39:18.110
very, very different to the podcast you've just

00:39:18.110 --> 00:39:20.369
been listening to. It's a few days later, and

00:39:20.369 --> 00:39:23.690
I think I've got a fever recording this. So,

00:39:23.769 --> 00:39:28.809
dumb criminals, attempt two. Karen, take it away

00:39:28.809 --> 00:39:31.949
with the rules. Okie dokie. So, contents of the

00:39:31.949 --> 00:39:34.590
box, you get your game board, four playing pieces,

00:39:34.969 --> 00:39:37.349
a die or a dice, whichever way you want to say

00:39:37.349 --> 00:39:41.130
it, 30 crew member tokens, 300 dumb criminal

00:39:41.130 --> 00:39:46.349
cards. and $170 ,000 in play money. The object

00:39:46.349 --> 00:39:48.670
of the game is to be the first player to collect

00:39:48.670 --> 00:39:52.150
$50 ,000 or the last player left on the game

00:39:52.150 --> 00:39:55.409
board by successfully completing heists and holding

00:39:55.409 --> 00:40:00.010
on to your crew. Setup we've done ahead of switching

00:40:00.010 --> 00:40:02.519
the microphones on. We've got a counter each

00:40:02.519 --> 00:40:05.760
with the dices on the board. We've got our dollars.

00:40:06.539 --> 00:40:10.559
We start off with $15 ,000 each, one $5 ,000

00:40:10.559 --> 00:40:14.019
bill and ten $1 ,000 bills. And each player needs

00:40:14.019 --> 00:40:17.179
to select five crew members from the crew member

00:40:17.179 --> 00:40:19.539
tokens, which we've laid out in the centre of

00:40:19.539 --> 00:40:21.619
the board. Adam, do you want to pick your crew

00:40:21.619 --> 00:40:26.389
members? One, two, three. I think I remember

00:40:26.389 --> 00:40:31.050
him from last time for four. And let's go for

00:40:31.050 --> 00:40:34.989
five. I'm stuck to the board. There we go. I've

00:40:34.989 --> 00:40:40.429
got my five. I've got Bumpy, The Chin, The Duke,

00:40:40.670 --> 00:40:45.670
Red and El Gringo. Nice. I'm going with Mad Dog,

00:40:46.030 --> 00:40:54.050
Skinny Joe, The Bull, Sneakers and Shorty. Right,

00:40:54.130 --> 00:40:56.769
how to play. The player who has most recently

00:40:56.769 --> 00:40:59.670
told a lie goes first by rolling the dice and

00:40:59.670 --> 00:41:03.349
moving the matching number spaces clockwise on

00:41:03.349 --> 00:41:05.670
the board game. So the game board itself is a

00:41:05.670 --> 00:41:08.389
bit like a Monopoly board, like there's certain

00:41:08.389 --> 00:41:11.849
squares that dictate certain actions. Depending

00:41:11.849 --> 00:41:14.789
on the space the player lands, they must fulfil

00:41:14.789 --> 00:41:17.889
the action associated with that space on the

00:41:17.889 --> 00:41:20.750
game board. Once the player has completed their

00:41:20.750 --> 00:41:23.250
turn, the die is passed clockwise to the next

00:41:23.250 --> 00:41:26.769
player who rolls and moves. Players keep taking

00:41:26.769 --> 00:41:29.070
turns rolling the die, moving around the game

00:41:29.070 --> 00:41:31.610
board and attempting to answer as many dumb criminal

00:41:31.610 --> 00:41:34.570
cards correctly as they can whilst raking in

00:41:34.570 --> 00:41:38.289
as much cash as possible. Any time a player loses

00:41:38.289 --> 00:41:41.840
all of their crew member tokens, that player

00:41:41.840 --> 00:41:44.820
is out of the game. Okay, so these are the board

00:41:44.820 --> 00:41:47.739
spaces. When a player lands on a heist space,

00:41:47.820 --> 00:41:50.460
it's the opportunity to make some cash. The player

00:41:50.460 --> 00:41:52.840
must first decide how many crew member tokens

00:41:52.840 --> 00:41:56.599
they will wager up to all of their tokens, so

00:41:56.599 --> 00:41:59.340
up to five, before placing the amount of tokens

00:41:59.340 --> 00:42:02.500
on the heist space on the game board. Another

00:42:02.500 --> 00:42:04.239
player picks up and reads the dumb criminals

00:42:04.239 --> 00:42:06.659
card out loud. After hearing the story, the first

00:42:06.659 --> 00:42:08.539
player must answer if they think the story is

00:42:08.539 --> 00:42:10.639
true or false. If the player answers correctly,

00:42:10.940 --> 00:42:13.900
they collect the amount of cash listed for every

00:42:13.900 --> 00:42:16.760
crew member token on the heist base and places

00:42:16.760 --> 00:42:18.619
the crew member tokens back in front of them.

00:42:18.820 --> 00:42:21.579
For example, four crew member tokens placed on

00:42:21.579 --> 00:42:25.420
a $1 ,000 heist base equals $4 ,000 earned. If

00:42:25.420 --> 00:42:27.900
the player answers incorrectly, they earn nothing.

00:42:28.159 --> 00:42:30.699
All crew member tokens placed on the heist base

00:42:30.699 --> 00:42:32.539
are moved to the jail, which is in the centre

00:42:32.539 --> 00:42:35.360
of the board. The player's turn is now over and

00:42:35.360 --> 00:42:38.480
play continues clockwise. When a player lands

00:42:38.480 --> 00:42:41.099
in a corpse base, they may post bail for up to

00:42:41.099 --> 00:42:43.980
two crew members and add them to their crew.

00:42:44.699 --> 00:42:48.340
Bail is set at $2 ,000 per criminal, which is

00:42:48.340 --> 00:42:51.340
paid back into the stash of cash set aside or

00:42:51.340 --> 00:42:54.679
the bank. A player can have up to seven crew

00:42:54.679 --> 00:42:56.760
member tokens in front of them at any one time.

00:42:57.159 --> 00:42:59.730
Bounty hunter spaces win. We're nearly there,

00:42:59.809 --> 00:43:02.869
guys. Bounty hunter spaces. When a player lands

00:43:02.869 --> 00:43:05.389
on a bounty hunter space, they must pay $3 ,000

00:43:05.389 --> 00:43:08.050
to keep one of their crew member tokens out of

00:43:08.050 --> 00:43:10.409
jail. If a player can't play, then one of their

00:43:10.409 --> 00:43:12.869
crew members must go straight to jail. The player's

00:43:12.869 --> 00:43:15.769
turn is now over and continues clockwise. Stabbed

00:43:15.769 --> 00:43:17.889
in the back space. When a player lands on this

00:43:17.889 --> 00:43:20.769
space, they lose a turn and play continues clockwise.

00:43:21.599 --> 00:43:24.000
It fell off the truck spaces. If a player lands

00:43:24.000 --> 00:43:27.179
on this space, they collect $500 for every crew

00:43:27.179 --> 00:43:30.820
member token they have. The player's turn is

00:43:30.820 --> 00:43:34.030
now over and play continues clockwise. Two more

00:43:34.030 --> 00:43:37.130
to go. Blackmail spaces. If the player lands

00:43:37.130 --> 00:43:40.010
on this space, they may blackmail the player

00:43:40.010 --> 00:43:43.730
of their choice who must pay them $1 ,000 to

00:43:43.730 --> 00:43:47.130
buy their silence. The player's turn is now over

00:43:47.130 --> 00:43:50.190
and play continues clockwise. Okay, so lastly,

00:43:50.369 --> 00:43:53.030
winning the game. The first player to nab 50

00:43:53.030 --> 00:43:55.309
,000 cash wins the game. If there is only one

00:43:55.309 --> 00:43:57.650
player left on the game board, that player is

00:43:57.650 --> 00:44:00.030
immediately declared the winner. And another

00:44:00.030 --> 00:44:03.920
game by these people is Stupid Deaths. And their

00:44:03.920 --> 00:44:08.179
website is www .ugames .com forward slash dumbcriminals.

00:44:08.320 --> 00:44:12.179
Now, last time we played this, we both couldn't

00:44:12.179 --> 00:44:14.900
remember when we told a lie and we just went

00:44:14.900 --> 00:44:18.940
alphabetically. Yeah. Have you told a lie? I

00:44:18.940 --> 00:44:20.980
was going to ask you that. You looked like you

00:44:20.980 --> 00:44:22.539
were going to confess to something then, Adam.

00:44:23.320 --> 00:44:26.820
Yeah, last week. You've done a lie? What did

00:44:26.820 --> 00:44:29.900
you lie about? A white lie. What was it? You

00:44:29.900 --> 00:44:33.519
know I said I traded the car in. Yeah. I said,

00:44:33.519 --> 00:44:37.039
yeah, it was an uncle's car. Oh. An uncle's?

00:44:37.039 --> 00:44:40.059
Didn't say it was my uncle. Yeah. He looked uncle

00:44:40.059 --> 00:44:43.579
-y. Yeah, definitely looks uncle -y. Yeah. So,

00:44:43.659 --> 00:44:46.699
yeah, that was my white life. There we are. Well,

00:44:46.719 --> 00:44:49.219
it's not so bad. It was car sales for you. Have

00:44:49.219 --> 00:44:52.340
you fibbed more recently than last week? Not

00:44:52.340 --> 00:44:54.300
without checking my text messages. I don't think

00:44:54.300 --> 00:44:56.780
so. So you can go first. I'll get the roll first.

00:44:58.949 --> 00:45:03.869
Three spaces. Blackmail. The player of my choice,

00:45:03.909 --> 00:45:06.230
but it's not going to be me. Hang on. Pay up.

00:45:06.789 --> 00:45:09.610
If a player lands on a space, he or she must

00:45:09.610 --> 00:45:12.230
blackmail the player of their choice and I must

00:45:12.230 --> 00:45:15.050
pay you $1 ,000. What if I don't want to keep

00:45:15.050 --> 00:45:17.769
your silence? Do you send one of your players

00:45:17.769 --> 00:45:20.789
to jail? There is no option to say if you refuse

00:45:20.789 --> 00:45:24.670
to pay the blackmail. That means you can't. Ah,

00:45:24.849 --> 00:45:27.210
I love that. Straight back, please, Durland.

00:45:27.329 --> 00:45:32.369
I just landed on the same square. Easy come,

00:45:32.469 --> 00:45:36.530
easy go. One, two, three, four, five, six. Oh,

00:45:36.630 --> 00:45:40.010
armoured car. Two grand per crew member. Before

00:45:40.010 --> 00:45:42.409
we go any further, do you want to set a timer?

00:45:43.110 --> 00:45:47.909
Good point. Well remembered. It's the one thing

00:45:47.909 --> 00:45:51.480
I'm responsible for when we play the games. How

00:45:51.480 --> 00:45:53.320
many games have I forgotten to start this round?

00:45:54.039 --> 00:45:56.760
Most. But that's okay. You win them all, so.

00:45:57.460 --> 00:46:02.119
I will wager three guys. Okay. So I need to pick

00:46:02.119 --> 00:46:06.739
you a card now, don't I? Yeah. Okay. For 3 ,000,

00:46:06.739 --> 00:46:12.679
no, three guys, six grand. flightless bird reese

00:46:12.679 --> 00:46:16.059
owen jones and kerry mules drunkenly broke into

00:46:16.059 --> 00:46:18.579
a queensland australia sea world and kidnapped

00:46:18.579 --> 00:46:22.340
a poor penguin named dirk after the two later

00:46:22.340 --> 00:46:25.420
released the penguin into a nearby canal where

00:46:25.420 --> 00:46:27.599
they were spotted by locals who called the police

00:46:27.599 --> 00:46:31.579
jones and mules were fined 1000 australian dollars

00:46:31.579 --> 00:46:34.380
each dirk was returned to the sea world unharmed

00:46:34.380 --> 00:46:38.039
true or false i'm gonna say true Oh, you bastard.

00:46:38.159 --> 00:46:42.300
It is true. Oh, yes. So you are up six grand.

00:46:42.980 --> 00:46:46.000
Just consult the bank. There you go. Thank you.

00:46:46.480 --> 00:46:52.559
Two. One, two. I'm on a dead space. Six. One,

00:46:52.679 --> 00:46:58.019
two, three, four, five. Blank. Three. One, two.

00:46:58.340 --> 00:47:01.659
Caught. Bail is set at two grand. Oh, you haven't

00:47:01.659 --> 00:47:06.739
got any players in there, so... When a player

00:47:06.739 --> 00:47:08.860
lands on a court space, they must post bail for

00:47:08.860 --> 00:47:11.960
up to two crew members and add them to their

00:47:11.960 --> 00:47:14.179
crew. Oh, does that mean you can buy... Bail

00:47:14.179 --> 00:47:16.679
is set at two grand per criminal, which is paid...

00:47:16.679 --> 00:47:18.739
Yeah, I can buy two more crew members if I want

00:47:18.739 --> 00:47:23.099
to. Let's say you can. Okay. For two grand per

00:47:23.099 --> 00:47:27.760
head. One, two. I'm just going to buy one person.

00:47:28.400 --> 00:47:32.079
You can choose the name from the stack. Oh, good

00:47:32.079 --> 00:47:39.280
name. The Cobra. The Cobra. I'm up to six. Oh,

00:47:39.300 --> 00:47:43.699
another six. Four, five, six. Oh, Bounty Hunter.

00:47:45.659 --> 00:47:47.460
Bounty Hunter. When a player lands on the Bounty

00:47:47.460 --> 00:47:49.960
Hunter space, they must pay 3 ,000 to keep one

00:47:49.960 --> 00:47:52.500
of their crew member tokens out of jail. If the

00:47:52.500 --> 00:47:54.579
player can't pay, then one of their crew members

00:47:54.579 --> 00:47:56.500
goes straight to jail. Your turn is now over.

00:47:56.719 --> 00:48:01.539
I'm coughing up. Okay. One. Two change. Marvelous.

00:48:01.880 --> 00:48:07.639
Loyal to my guys. Ain't done nothing. I'm a car.

00:48:08.239 --> 00:48:13.039
Pick me a... Oh, I need to... Oh, how many players

00:48:13.039 --> 00:48:16.079
are you waging? I'm going to go three. Two grand

00:48:16.079 --> 00:48:22.460
per crew member. Flowers. Joan Cartwright was

00:48:22.460 --> 00:48:24.940
a prize rose grower and had won numerous awards

00:48:24.940 --> 00:48:27.639
for her roses. She came home one day to find

00:48:27.639 --> 00:48:30.239
all of her roses had been cut. At a house three

00:48:30.239 --> 00:48:32.500
doors down, Joan looked over the homeowner's

00:48:32.500 --> 00:48:35.039
shoulder as she opened the door and saw her roses

00:48:35.039 --> 00:48:38.300
and vase all over the house. Cops were called

00:48:38.300 --> 00:48:41.840
and the rose thief was arrested. True or false?

00:48:42.420 --> 00:48:48.260
True. Seems random enough. False. Ah, boo. So,

00:48:48.280 --> 00:48:52.179
do you want to... Do they have to go to jail

00:48:52.179 --> 00:48:54.920
now? If a player answers incorrectly, I earn

00:48:54.920 --> 00:48:59.329
nothing. And all crew members are placed... Yeah,

00:48:59.429 --> 00:49:01.730
all three go to jail now, please. Thank you.

00:49:04.610 --> 00:49:08.150
Do you have to wait until you get to the court

00:49:08.150 --> 00:49:15.409
to bust them out? Five. Russian roulette, one

00:49:15.409 --> 00:49:19.289
grand per crew member. I will wager three guys.

00:49:19.429 --> 00:49:24.340
It's going to be Bumpy, Red and The Chin. Nice.

00:49:24.340 --> 00:49:28.159
Okay. Drive -thru. After a long session in a

00:49:28.159 --> 00:49:31.500
bar in Fort Worth, Texas, Alberto Gonzalez decided

00:49:31.500 --> 00:49:34.480
to steal a car to get home quickly. On the way

00:49:34.480 --> 00:49:36.639
home, he became hungry and thought he had pulled

00:49:36.639 --> 00:49:39.500
into the lot of a Taco Bell. Sadly for Alberto,

00:49:39.800 --> 00:49:41.800
he'd pulled into the police station next door

00:49:41.800 --> 00:49:43.960
and was arrested for drink driving and grand

00:49:43.960 --> 00:49:46.280
theft auto. True or false? I'm going to say true.

00:49:46.519 --> 00:49:50.980
It's false. My guy's still in jail. Yeah. Well,

00:49:51.019 --> 00:49:54.239
no, those are my guys. Those are your guys. They're

00:49:54.239 --> 00:49:55.440
just on the board. They weren't quite in the

00:49:55.440 --> 00:49:58.360
jail box. Let's have a fight, shall we? Fight

00:49:58.360 --> 00:50:03.559
to the death. Crew v. crew. Oh. Royal Jewel Heist.

00:50:03.559 --> 00:50:06.460
One grand per crew member. I'll go one to be

00:50:06.460 --> 00:50:12.599
on the safe side. Put Mad Dog in. Home Run. Drake

00:50:12.599 --> 00:50:15.960
the Snake Bryson was a sergeant at arms at an

00:50:15.960 --> 00:50:19.340
outlaw biker club based in El Paso, Texas. Drake's

00:50:19.340 --> 00:50:21.199
job was to keep order at the club and settle

00:50:21.199 --> 00:50:24.019
any disputes. After a recent bar brawl, Drake

00:50:24.019 --> 00:50:26.059
was quickly arrested and the receipt of a purchase

00:50:26.059 --> 00:50:28.199
of a baseball bat used in the fight was found

00:50:28.199 --> 00:50:30.300
on the bar floor, complete with his credit card

00:50:30.300 --> 00:50:36.300
details. True or false? False. Oh, well done.

00:50:36.519 --> 00:50:39.659
Phew, I get my person back and I get a grand.

00:50:41.280 --> 00:50:48.639
Thank you. And a card. Five. One, two, three,

00:50:48.699 --> 00:50:51.960
four. Oh, Ronald Duhamel heist. I will only wager

00:50:51.960 --> 00:50:57.920
one. Okay. Go on, El Gringo. Hair today. Austin

00:50:57.920 --> 00:51:01.960
Harper of Little Rock, Arkansas. Arkansas. They'll

00:51:01.960 --> 00:51:04.139
get angry in case we have any listeners. It says

00:51:04.139 --> 00:51:06.599
Arkansas. It's pronounced Arkansas. Yeah, it

00:51:06.599 --> 00:51:08.760
is one of those things, yeah. We're in Wales.

00:51:08.840 --> 00:51:10.260
Come on, we can't argue. I thought Arkansas and

00:51:10.260 --> 00:51:13.230
Arkansas were two different places. Are they

00:51:13.230 --> 00:51:15.409
not? Geography's never been my strongest suit.

00:51:15.449 --> 00:51:18.150
We're in Wales, we can't argue about silly pronunciations.

00:51:18.150 --> 00:51:19.650
That's very true. That's spelled differently.

00:51:20.989 --> 00:51:24.469
Anyway, from Little Rock. Obviously loved to

00:51:24.469 --> 00:51:27.690
look good when he was committing burglaries as

00:51:27.690 --> 00:51:30.230
police found his wig at the scene of his latest

00:51:30.230 --> 00:51:32.989
break -in. After testing it for DNA and finding

00:51:32.989 --> 00:51:35.590
a match, police were able to reunite the wig

00:51:35.590 --> 00:51:39.650
with its owner at a county jail. I will say...

00:51:39.869 --> 00:51:42.650
False for a change. That is false. Oh, yes. Come

00:51:42.650 --> 00:51:45.409
on, El Gringo. God, he's winning again. And you

00:51:45.409 --> 00:51:48.050
get a grand, yeah? Oh, yes. Forgot my winnings.

00:51:48.050 --> 00:51:53.250
Thank you. Oh, six for me, please. One, two,

00:51:53.309 --> 00:51:56.449
three, four, five, six. Court. Oh, I can get

00:51:56.449 --> 00:51:58.389
some of my guys back, can't I? Two grand per

00:51:58.389 --> 00:52:00.429
head. You've got three dudes in bail. I've got

00:52:00.429 --> 00:52:03.030
three in there. I'm going to bail one out. We've

00:52:03.030 --> 00:52:05.289
got three minutes left. I'm bailing Shorty out.

00:52:05.309 --> 00:52:12.179
Yep, just the one. Four. One, two, three, blank.

00:52:13.480 --> 00:52:19.019
Four. Bounty hunter. Pay the bounty or crew member

00:52:19.019 --> 00:52:22.679
goes to slammer. Three grand bounty due. Right.

00:52:22.800 --> 00:52:26.039
There's five for the bank and two for me. Your

00:52:26.039 --> 00:52:37.159
turn. Two. Courts. Yes. How is it? Three guys.

00:52:37.360 --> 00:52:42.230
Six grand. Come on, guys. Out you come. Six grand

00:52:42.230 --> 00:52:45.690
down, but crude art. Three. One, two, three.

00:52:46.550 --> 00:52:50.510
Okay. Art gallery heist. I'm going to go Mad

00:52:50.510 --> 00:52:54.010
Dog and Skinny Joe. So you're playing for $3

00:52:54.010 --> 00:53:00.670
,000. Just a small one. Aidan O 'Connor was out

00:53:00.670 --> 00:53:03.889
celebrating his not -going -to -jail party after

00:53:03.889 --> 00:53:06.070
his recent acquittal in doubling, only to end

00:53:06.070 --> 00:53:08.190
up getting drunk, smashing up the hotel bar.

00:53:08.619 --> 00:53:10.679
Fighting with another man and ending up with

00:53:10.679 --> 00:53:13.880
a six -month jail sentence. True or false? Did

00:53:13.880 --> 00:53:18.760
you say Dublin? Yes, Dublin, Ireland. Trying

00:53:18.760 --> 00:53:23.099
not to fall onto tropes here, but I'm going to

00:53:23.099 --> 00:53:28.400
say true. Oh, it's false. Oh, we've got a minute

00:53:28.400 --> 00:53:32.940
left. Right, okay. Four. One, two, three, four.

00:53:33.079 --> 00:53:35.659
Bounty hunter. I've got to pay a bounty, haven't

00:53:35.659 --> 00:53:38.239
I? No, you've got all your guys out. Or somebody

00:53:38.239 --> 00:53:40.280
does go to the slammer. That's the court when

00:53:40.280 --> 00:53:42.820
I get somebody out. I've just got to cough up.

00:53:42.900 --> 00:53:53.059
Sorry. Six. Blank space. Four. Blank. Five, please.

00:53:53.860 --> 00:53:58.800
One, two, three, four. Blank. Oh, my God. Five.

00:53:59.039 --> 00:54:04.900
Blank. Two, three, four. Blank. Six. Bounty Hunter.

00:54:05.260 --> 00:54:08.239
You've got to pay some money. Do I? When I play

00:54:08.239 --> 00:54:10.300
Lance of Might, I must pay three grand to keep

00:54:10.300 --> 00:54:13.079
one of his crew members out of jail. Fine, there

00:54:13.079 --> 00:54:17.239
you go. One. Oh, Royal Jewel Heist. I'm going

00:54:17.239 --> 00:54:20.880
to risk three, guys. One grand per crew member.

00:54:21.280 --> 00:54:25.380
Okay. Snap decision. 23 -year -old Jojo Baines

00:54:25.380 --> 00:54:28.539
was running from police in Dade County, Florida

00:54:28.539 --> 00:54:32.469
when he jumped into a lagoon to hide. He wasn't

00:54:32.469 --> 00:54:34.570
in his hiding spot for long before he was bitten

00:54:34.570 --> 00:54:37.170
by an alligator and was calling on the police

00:54:37.170 --> 00:54:39.750
chasing him to come to his rescue. He spent the

00:54:39.750 --> 00:54:42.750
next 18 months, damn fucking traffic, spent the

00:54:42.750 --> 00:54:46.809
next 18 months in county jail recovering from

00:54:46.809 --> 00:54:50.530
his wounds. True or false? False. It is false.

00:54:50.789 --> 00:54:55.090
Oh yes, come on guys. So that's three grand from

00:54:55.090 --> 00:54:58.210
the bank and the alarm's just gone off so round

00:54:58.210 --> 00:55:01.559
one is done. I would say you're probably firmly

00:55:01.559 --> 00:55:04.800
in the lead. All my guys are out of jail. Shall

00:55:04.800 --> 00:55:07.800
we talk about the winnings just to see? I've

00:55:07.800 --> 00:55:09.880
got four guys in jail and two guys out of jail.

00:55:10.079 --> 00:55:15.800
One, two, three. I've got six grand. Seven, eight,

00:55:16.059 --> 00:55:20.579
nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen grand. Yes,

00:55:20.579 --> 00:55:24.280
of course you're winning. So far. Right, see

00:55:24.280 --> 00:55:31.420
how we do in round two. Ah, that's a spoiled

00:55:31.420 --> 00:55:35.039
surprise of this book. It's a big book of truth.

00:55:35.840 --> 00:55:37.820
I'd say a little book of lies. It's not that

00:55:37.820 --> 00:55:40.320
little either. It's not. That's probably because

00:55:40.320 --> 00:55:45.639
it's lying. Bibliotek! Yay! My turn this episode.

00:55:45.900 --> 00:55:50.239
And I bought this in 2006 from the author. Or

00:55:50.239 --> 00:55:52.760
one of the authors. It's A Little Book of Lies

00:55:52.760 --> 00:55:55.579
by Richard Lockwood and Steve Potts Rayner. I

00:55:55.579 --> 00:56:01.940
bought it from Steve. Back in 2005, 2006, I used

00:56:01.940 --> 00:56:04.880
to go to bootleg mashup nights in Bristol. And

00:56:04.880 --> 00:56:07.320
one of the nights Steve Potts Rayner was playing,

00:56:07.340 --> 00:56:10.460
I can't remember what his DJ name was. But yeah,

00:56:10.559 --> 00:56:12.760
he was also selling books. This was a fiver.

00:56:12.860 --> 00:56:14.860
Oh, bogging. So I bought it off him. And yeah,

00:56:14.900 --> 00:56:17.519
essentially him and his mate sat down over some

00:56:17.519 --> 00:56:21.900
beers. And made up a bunch of shit. Now, let's

00:56:21.900 --> 00:56:24.460
have a look. I've got tabs in here. It's been

00:56:24.460 --> 00:56:27.420
so long ago, I can't remember why. Is this one

00:56:27.420 --> 00:56:30.139
of your pre -prepped books? Yeah. Pre -prepped

00:56:30.139 --> 00:56:32.519
from ages ago. Yeah, I can just dip into that

00:56:32.519 --> 00:56:36.099
and it'll all come flooding back. There's a little

00:56:36.099 --> 00:56:38.000
bit about the authors. Richard Lockwood is a

00:56:38.000 --> 00:56:40.199
renowned space adventurer, psychic detective,

00:56:40.519 --> 00:56:42.679
time traveller and gentleman who spends the rest

00:56:42.679 --> 00:56:45.559
of his time developing websites. His hobbies

00:56:45.559 --> 00:56:48.300
include... fending off bankruptcy and being tired.

00:56:48.480 --> 00:56:51.420
He's a psychic detective. Does he detect psychics?

00:56:52.340 --> 00:56:55.400
He didn't specify. Fair enough. And Steve Potts

00:56:55.400 --> 00:56:57.139
Rayner lives in Hampshire with his wife and son,

00:56:57.260 --> 00:56:59.139
tries not to break anything. He's noted for his

00:56:59.139 --> 00:57:01.059
enthusiasm for anything that involves petrol,

00:57:01.199 --> 00:57:04.360
amplifiers or beer. And ideally, all three at

00:57:04.360 --> 00:57:06.500
the same time. His favourite foods are beer,

00:57:06.619 --> 00:57:09.000
trifle and bacon and fried egg rolls. I don't

00:57:09.000 --> 00:57:13.099
know if that's... All in one go. His motto is

00:57:13.099 --> 00:57:15.239
unpalatable at best and illegal in many countries,

00:57:15.340 --> 00:57:20.239
even between consenting adults. We can either

00:57:20.239 --> 00:57:26.739
choose a number between 1 and 167 or letter A

00:57:26.739 --> 00:57:35.239
to Z. 132. 132. Right. Tell me when to stop.

00:57:35.380 --> 00:57:39.239
Stop. Pouring boiling lead into your ears is

00:57:39.239 --> 00:57:41.519
a safe and inexpensive method of earwax removal.

00:57:41.900 --> 00:57:45.860
Oh. Black computer pixels are made from octopus

00:57:45.860 --> 00:57:49.340
ink. Filling your kettle with gravel will make

00:57:49.340 --> 00:57:53.380
your cups of tea taste of honey. Okay. The look

00:57:53.380 --> 00:57:55.260
of the Eiffel Tower in Paris was based on the

00:57:55.260 --> 00:57:57.420
failed design for a revolutionary new cheese

00:57:57.420 --> 00:58:03.079
grater. Page 70. Storms in teacups physically

00:58:03.079 --> 00:58:07.559
cannot exceed Gale Force 6. That's probably true.

00:58:08.039 --> 00:58:10.780
A pack of playing cards set on edge can support

00:58:10.780 --> 00:58:14.389
a baby sloth. So yeah, essentially, it is a book

00:58:14.389 --> 00:58:16.389
of bullshit they wrote over beers. Fair play

00:58:16.389 --> 00:58:17.989
to them for putting it together. Well done, Moe.

00:58:18.710 --> 00:58:20.809
Self -published, and it says in the back, this

00:58:20.809 --> 00:58:22.889
book has been substantially powered by beer.

00:58:23.510 --> 00:58:26.329
And as far as I know, it was only a very limited

00:58:26.329 --> 00:58:29.650
run of books. You could possibly see why. Well,

00:58:29.690 --> 00:58:31.730
I think it's really cool. I like it. From the

00:58:31.730 --> 00:58:34.610
House of Infinite Zen Publishing, appears to

00:58:34.610 --> 00:58:36.750
be the fourth thing they've published. Oh, that's

00:58:36.750 --> 00:58:41.690
nice. No idea what the first three were. That's

00:58:41.690 --> 00:58:43.750
this week's bibliothete. Excellent. Good pick.

00:58:48.789 --> 00:58:53.070
And we've made it to the end of the show. And

00:58:53.070 --> 00:58:56.369
we're still awake. Yay! We only had one break

00:58:56.369 --> 00:58:58.710
in the middle, which is not bad for us, really.

00:58:58.949 --> 00:59:01.369
We needed it. Yeah, there was no napping involved,

00:59:01.670 --> 00:59:03.929
but it was definitely sitting down on more comfier

00:59:03.929 --> 00:59:05.869
chairs. And there was a big tummy gurgle and

00:59:05.869 --> 00:59:08.050
a fart from me. So you didn't want to be involved

00:59:08.050 --> 00:59:09.710
in it. And I did notice that you cocked your

00:59:09.710 --> 00:59:14.869
cheek toward me rather than away from me. I'm

00:59:14.869 --> 00:59:17.650
right -handed. Why'd you cock your left cheek?

00:59:17.769 --> 00:59:19.309
That's the cheek I was sitting on, the right

00:59:19.309 --> 00:59:24.880
one. The dominant side. That's what I was balancing

00:59:24.880 --> 00:59:27.840
on. There's so much digestive upset throughout

00:59:27.840 --> 00:59:30.119
this whole episode. It's going to be another

00:59:30.119 --> 00:59:34.059
bum -related or belly -related title for next

00:59:34.059 --> 00:59:37.280
time, isn't it? I hope not. And thankfully it's

00:59:37.280 --> 00:59:41.699
not smell -a -listen. Yeah. Oh, God. I need to

00:59:41.699 --> 00:59:44.639
say thank you to a couple of individuals from

00:59:44.639 --> 00:59:47.179
Facebook who have donated some games to the podcast

00:59:47.179 --> 00:59:51.480
for us. Some of you who listen may also follow

00:59:51.480 --> 00:59:55.099
our social media. I'm currently locked out of

00:59:55.099 --> 00:59:58.699
the Blue Sky and the Twitter account since changing

00:59:58.699 --> 01:00:01.199
my phone over. I can't figure out why. Sorry,

01:00:01.260 --> 01:00:03.280
and I'm terrible at using them. I only just post

01:00:03.280 --> 01:00:05.300
when there's an episode. That's fine. We'll figure

01:00:05.300 --> 01:00:08.139
it out. But definitely on Instagram and on Facebook,

01:00:08.179 --> 01:00:11.559
you will have seen the games mounting of things

01:00:11.559 --> 01:00:15.179
potentially to come. So thank you to those ladies

01:00:15.179 --> 01:00:18.300
for those donations. I will give you individual

01:00:18.300 --> 01:00:20.139
shout -outs when we bring your games out, but

01:00:20.139 --> 01:00:22.460
thank you very much. And if you have seen them,

01:00:22.539 --> 01:00:24.519
you're ahead of me. I haven't because I don't

01:00:24.519 --> 01:00:27.539
have Facebook or Instagram. No, yes. It's all

01:00:27.539 --> 01:00:29.960
a big secret. Or the next time around your house,

01:00:30.039 --> 01:00:32.860
where did all these come from? Yeah. That was

01:00:32.860 --> 01:00:34.940
Jackson's response when he saw the stack the

01:00:34.940 --> 01:00:36.400
other day. He was like, bloody hell, that's a

01:00:36.400 --> 01:00:38.960
mountain. I was like, I know. We are some very

01:00:38.960 --> 01:00:41.199
generous people. Yeah. Thank you very, very much.

01:00:41.340 --> 01:00:43.679
Yes. We don't need to buy any games for a while.

01:00:44.760 --> 01:00:46.820
We might have one or two that we can then donate

01:00:46.820 --> 01:00:50.179
to Cheap Show if you want to, or we can donate

01:00:50.179 --> 01:00:52.480
to charity shops. Keep circulating the games.

01:00:52.639 --> 01:00:54.780
Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's it. Keep them in circulation.

01:00:55.420 --> 01:00:57.500
And I also need to say... You'll find out how

01:00:57.500 --> 01:01:01.000
they're meant to be played. Yeah. I also need

01:01:01.000 --> 01:01:04.059
to say a very big thank you to the ladies of

01:01:04.059 --> 01:01:07.780
Taste of Haven Cafe in Milford Haven. I had a

01:01:07.780 --> 01:01:10.179
little day trip out there on Thursday, forgetting

01:01:10.179 --> 01:01:12.559
that it was VE Day and that most things would

01:01:12.559 --> 01:01:14.739
be closed. But there were a couple of charity

01:01:14.739 --> 01:01:16.280
shops there that I got to have a look around

01:01:16.280 --> 01:01:18.619
in. I didn't buy anything. It was a shame. There

01:01:18.619 --> 01:01:22.099
was a lovely yarn shop there that I immediately

01:01:22.099 --> 01:01:26.360
spent £40 in without even blinking. And the ladies

01:01:26.360 --> 01:01:29.059
from the yarn shop... recommended Taste of Haven

01:01:29.059 --> 01:01:32.179
for lunch so after spending money on wool I went

01:01:32.179 --> 01:01:34.340
and tootled up and down the high street in Milford

01:01:34.340 --> 01:01:38.780
Haven Milford Haven's not a town it's weird it's

01:01:38.780 --> 01:01:41.840
like just a road with shops on either side but

01:01:41.840 --> 01:01:44.239
it doesn't feel like a high street it just feels

01:01:44.239 --> 01:01:48.460
like a street with shops on it it's weird but

01:01:48.460 --> 01:01:53.579
anyway I had a nice time but the food in Taste

01:01:53.579 --> 01:02:01.329
of Haven was fucking phenomenal I had the best

01:02:01.329 --> 01:02:06.550
scotch egg of my life it was so good that I told

01:02:06.550 --> 01:02:08.889
the lady I will go back and have another one

01:02:09.530 --> 01:02:12.329
I also had the majority of a slice of carrot

01:02:12.329 --> 01:02:14.969
cake whilst I was there as well and brought two

01:02:14.969 --> 01:02:17.070
cakes home for us to share, which we had yesterday.

01:02:17.070 --> 01:02:19.889
Oh, they were lovely. They were good. Very rich,

01:02:19.909 --> 01:02:22.110
that brownie. Yeah. Was it a brownie? It was

01:02:22.110 --> 01:02:24.429
like a brownie tray bake sort of thing. Oh, yeah.

01:02:24.429 --> 01:02:28.150
It had like a fudgy sort of chocolatey ganache

01:02:28.150 --> 01:02:29.750
on top. There was a bit more going on than a

01:02:29.750 --> 01:02:32.429
regular brownie. Yeah, it had like Kinder bars

01:02:32.429 --> 01:02:35.969
in it and things. It was really good. And the

01:02:35.969 --> 01:02:38.579
cherry bake well was... banging as well that

01:02:38.579 --> 01:02:42.960
was really nice so um yeah if we ever find ourselves

01:02:42.960 --> 01:02:46.099
up in that direction for whatever reason we can

01:02:46.099 --> 01:02:48.139
go to taste of haven for lunch because i would

01:02:48.139 --> 01:02:50.280
very much like another one of those giant scotch

01:02:50.280 --> 01:02:52.820
eggs demand the finest cakes known to humanity

01:02:52.820 --> 01:02:55.139
indeed we brought to us right now yes oh and

01:02:55.139 --> 01:02:58.139
they also cater to vegetarians and vegans oh

01:02:58.139 --> 01:03:00.099
there we go yeah definitely check them out if

01:03:00.099 --> 01:03:02.539
you're in the area absolutely they can be found

01:03:02.539 --> 01:03:06.170
on i'll tell you now 90 Charles Street, Milford

01:03:06.170 --> 01:03:12.250
Haven, SA732HE. And they also do outside catering

01:03:12.250 --> 01:03:14.989
and homemade buffets. They've got the likely

01:03:14.989 --> 01:03:17.030
used bump. Their business will be booming now.

01:03:17.349 --> 01:03:20.150
All six of our listeners from England are going

01:03:20.150 --> 01:03:23.210
to fly themselves over to Milford Haven to eat

01:03:23.210 --> 01:03:26.010
scotch eggs. But, you know, again... We're not

01:03:26.010 --> 01:03:28.210
sponsored by them. This is just a personal recommendation

01:03:28.210 --> 01:03:30.269
of mine. If you go there and have food, I really

01:03:30.269 --> 01:03:31.949
don't think you'll be disappointed. And the price

01:03:31.949 --> 01:03:33.969
point was really good as well. I've not even

01:03:33.969 --> 01:03:35.909
been there, but I can recommend their cakes.

01:03:36.170 --> 01:03:39.849
Yeah, they were slamming. We're a part of the

Gadget, me as Silent Bob from 2007. Oh, how we've

01:04:14.079 --> 01:04:17.119
changed. Actually, no, Gareth really looks identical.

01:04:17.539 --> 01:04:20.929
He has not changed. Some Paul Rudd thing going

01:04:20.929 --> 01:04:24.730
on there. Oh, Gareth, Facebook keeps recommending

01:04:24.730 --> 01:04:27.210
me as a friend to you, like to send you a friend

01:04:27.210 --> 01:04:30.369
request. I have not sent you a friend request.

01:04:30.989 --> 01:04:33.190
If you're listening, you keep coming up on Facebook

01:04:33.190 --> 01:04:35.409
as a recommendation for my friend. Not asking

01:04:35.409 --> 01:04:37.630

01:04:37.630 --> 01:04:41.909

01:05:05.280 --> 01:05:07.840
was that? Nextdoor made a weird noise there.

01:05:08.099 --> 01:05:10.159
I hope it wasn't a sexy noise. I don't want to

01:05:10.159 --> 01:05:21.420
hear Nextdoor's sexy noises. This was a Studio
