That 103 00:03:57.310 --> 00:04:00.310 was our plan. What a fucking life that is. 104 00:04:01.009 --> 00:04:02.349 Tidy the house. 105 00:04:02.990 --> 00:04:06.370 Tidy the house. For once, since we've moved in, we've 106 00:04:06.430 --> 00:04:07.629 always said it's not quite. 107 00:04:08.569 --> 00:04:10.259 How you want it. Or not tired enough. 108 00:04:10.300 --> 00:04:13.780 Five years in, and now we're finally thinking September's the month. 109 00:04:14.099 --> 00:04:16.060 And what are your thoughts on moving, or are you 110 00:04:16.120 --> 00:04:17.000 definitely happy there now? 111 00:04:17.379 --> 00:04:18.230 We're happy here now. 112 00:04:18.290 --> 00:04:19.069 You're not going anywhere? 113 00:04:19.529 --> 00:04:21.149 We're not going anywhere for the foreseeable. 114 00:04:21.529 --> 00:04:21.850 Okay. 115 00:04:22.730 --> 00:04:26.290 Talk to me in two years. We still might be moving, 116 00:04:26.310 --> 00:04:26.980 but we don't know yet. 117 00:04:27.500 --> 00:04:29.639 Yeah, well, do you know what? Our daughter keeps asking 118 00:04:29.660 --> 00:04:31.560 when we're going to move. But I don't know why 119 00:04:31.600 --> 00:04:33.379 she wants to move. She's never lived in any other house. 120 00:04:34.079 --> 00:04:35.310 Did you say you might be moving then? 121 00:04:35.610 --> 00:04:38.170 No, I don't think so. But maybe her friends have 122 00:04:38.230 --> 00:04:41.430 moved or something like that. Her friends have moved house. 123 00:04:41.509 --> 00:04:44.089 I don't know if it's exciting for a kid or 124 00:04:44.709 --> 00:04:46.980 scary to move house. Because I never moved house. We 125 00:04:47.000 --> 00:04:47.500 never moved. 126 00:04:47.540 --> 00:04:48.819 We moved when I was three and a half, so 127 00:04:48.860 --> 00:04:50.660 I didn't really experience it. And then I lived in 128 00:04:50.680 --> 00:04:51.620 the same house until I was 18. 129 00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:55.639 Yeah, so I lived in the same house for 18 130 00:04:55.639 --> 00:04:56.560 years before I moved out. 131 00:04:56.959 --> 00:04:57.379 Oh, God. 132 00:04:57.519 --> 00:04:57.720 I could. 133 00:04:58.180 --> 00:05:01.759 Can't imagine the stress of moving house now the thrill 134 00:05:01.790 --> 00:05:06.089 of moving but then that six months after when nothing's 135 00:05:06.209 --> 00:05:07.430 quite sorted. 136 00:05:07.189 --> 00:05:09.089 I think it's good it's a new start fresh start 137 00:05:09.110 --> 00:05:11.649 you can go through like sort out all your direct 138 00:05:11.689 --> 00:05:13.920 debits and change all your dresses it feels like a 139 00:05:13.939 --> 00:05:14.800 new beginning. 140 00:05:14.519 --> 00:05:18.740 Yeah I love that bit The move is fun, right? 141 00:05:19.019 --> 00:05:20.620 The move is exciting. 142 00:05:20.660 --> 00:05:23.660 You have to pay for a removals firm. I always 143 00:05:23.740 --> 00:05:26.800 moved myself in the back of my little car. And 144 00:05:26.819 --> 00:05:28.600 then when we moved from our flat to what is 145 00:05:28.699 --> 00:05:31.500 our now sort of family home, we got movers and 146 00:05:31.540 --> 00:05:33.259 it was the greatest thing I've ever done. 147 00:05:33.740 --> 00:05:34.899 You're not going to believe what I've just done. 148 00:05:35.379 --> 00:05:35.519 What? 149 00:05:36.329 --> 00:05:39.050 I've just eaten an almond. What's wrong with you? What 150 00:05:39.069 --> 00:05:39.649 is wrong with me? 151 00:05:39.709 --> 00:05:40.730 How hungry are you? 152 00:05:41.069 --> 00:05:43.329 Quite hungry because I brought my breakfast to record and 153 00:05:43.470 --> 00:05:44.920 I didn't eat it because we were recording. 154 00:05:45.300 --> 00:05:47.740 Yeah, but we were always going to be recording. 155 00:05:47.819 --> 00:05:49.199 I know, but I was late. 156 00:05:49.480 --> 00:05:50.500 He was like, okay, fair enough. 157 00:05:50.579 --> 00:05:52.600 Why have I just done that? I didn't even think 158 00:05:52.660 --> 00:05:55.259 about it. Do you know what? That's how comfortable I am. 159 00:05:55.540 --> 00:05:57.649 It's like we're having a conversation. It's just like we're 160 00:05:57.670 --> 00:05:58.089 having breakfast. 161 00:05:58.110 --> 00:06:00.189 Yeah, but even if we were having a conversation, like 162 00:06:00.410 --> 00:06:03.180 you've brought a bowl of yoghurt from home, I'd be like, 163 00:06:03.199 --> 00:06:04.199 it's a bit weird, isn't it? 164 00:06:04.300 --> 00:06:05.120 Not from home! 165 00:06:05.319 --> 00:06:10.709 Like finger-dabbing almonds and popping them in mid-chat. You're licking 166 00:06:10.730 --> 00:06:11.829 your finger and dabbing them and getting them. 167 00:06:12.269 --> 00:06:13.829 No, I'm getting them with a spoon. 168 00:06:13.889 --> 00:06:17.250 Like the police in TV shows

when they're testing cocaine. 169 00:06:17.269 --> 00:06:18.689 When they do a drugs bust. 170 00:06:19.050 --> 00:06:20.110 And they get it and rub it on their gun. 171 00:06:20.290 --> 00:06:21.930 I always think they've put a bit too much on there. 172 00:06:22.009 --> 00:06:25.069 I think what you've just done there, mate, is illegal. 173 00:06:25.810 --> 00:06:28.899 Let me just check if this is right. Yeah, that's 174 00:06:28.920 --> 00:06:32.500 definitely cocaine. Take them down. Take them down. I'm going up. 175 00:06:33.779 --> 00:06:36.180 How also, if you're a policeman, you shouldn't know that 176 00:06:36.379 --> 00:06:37.160 that shouldn't help. 177 00:06:38.129 --> 00:06:40.689 Well, do you want to parent and fail about getting 178 00:06:40.730 --> 00:06:41.420 powders mixed up? 179 00:06:41.850 --> 00:06:42.750 Yeah. Here we go. 180 00:06:42.769 --> 00:06:44.750 God, this is a good segue. A few months ago, 181 00:06:44.790 --> 00:06:47.110 we went to the coast of our baby, who was 182 00:06:47.149 --> 00:06:50.069 four weeks old. We packed some formula, and everything was 183 00:06:50.089 --> 00:06:52.170 going well until 3 a.m. one morning. My husband told 184 00:06:52.189 --> 00:06:53.850 me our baby had been throwing up a fair bit. 185 00:06:54.209 --> 00:06:56.910 I'd explained a bit of spitted-up milk was normal. He 186 00:06:56.930 --> 00:06:59.129 went back to sleep. At 5 a.m., I took over 187 00:06:59.170 --> 00:07:01.449 to find millions of ants on one formula bottle, and 188 00:07:01.490 --> 00:07:04.810 after smelling it, I realized why. It turned out I'd packed... 189 00:07:05.029 --> 00:07:07.889 formula in a Tupperware box. My husband had also packed 190 00:07:07.920 --> 00:07:11.759 his own formula, cookie protein powder in a similar box. 191 00:07:12.339 --> 00:07:12.800 Oh, no. 192 00:07:12.939 --> 00:07:15.519 We accidentally measured out protein powder instead of formula. 193 00:07:15.579 --> 00:07:16.139 Oh, my God. 194 00:07:16.279 --> 00:07:18.759 The baby only had half a bottle, threw it all up. 195 00:07:19.050 --> 00:07:20.139 He's absolutely fine. 196 00:07:20.370 --> 00:07:27.120 He's fucking ripped. Sorry, I think you were going, I 197 00:07:27.379 --> 00:07:29.360 just realised that I said it. 198 00:07:29.399 --> 00:07:32.639 No, look, that's why you're a comedian, because they went 199 00:07:32.660 --> 00:07:34.120 for it and said, he looks like he's just ready 200 00:07:34.139 --> 00:07:37.930 for the CrossFit Champions 2023. Which is a great line, 201 00:07:38.079 --> 00:07:42.029 but fucking Rick works better. Harriet, who messaged in.

And then Nobhead 253 00:09:54.049 --> 00:09:57.129 arrived quite quick after. That was, that was, he's nine. 254 00:09:57.269 --> 00:09:59.940 Then the other Nobbed came he's seven and then there's 255 00:09:59.980 --> 00:10:02.200 a new one he's only two and he was on 256 00:10:02.240 --> 00:10:04.919 the cusp of being like his sister but unfortunately he's 257 00:10:04.940 --> 00:10:07.039 ended up like his dad and his brothers so that's 258 00:10:07.059 --> 00:10:10.799 the third Nobbed who's two so three boys nine and 259 00:10:10.840 --> 00:10:14.720 below and one incredible young woman who's 11. 260 00:10:14.720 --> 00:10:15.590 Do you have a favorite? 261 00:10:17.799 --> 00:10:23.580 Do you know what? Here's the thing, okay? I know 262 00:10:23.620 --> 00:10:26.519 I've presented that as like, yo, Sophia is the beacon 263 00:10:26.639 --> 00:10:30.549 of everything. But you know, on a day-to-day basis, like somebody, 264 00:10:31.190 --> 00:10:34.529 like it's like a horse race. Someone becomes a favorite 265 00:10:34.629 --> 00:10:38.570 every day by doing something silly or something funny or 266 00:10:38.610 --> 00:10:40.909 swearing at a neighbor. And like, you know what I mean? 267 00:10:40.960 --> 00:10:43.080 That's the interchange. But I'm very honest with them. I 268 00:10:43.139 --> 00:10:45.899 always sit them down regularly and say, look, man, Some 269 00:10:45.940 --> 00:10:49.299 days your dad loves you more than others. And today's you. 270 00:10:49.559 --> 00:10:51.360 And I think it's very important for character building that 271 00:10:51.379 --> 00:10:51.759 they know that. 272 00:10:52.080 --> 00:10:56.120 There's four kids there. Do they interact well? Are they, 273 00:10:56.840 --> 00:10:59.279 I don't even know where I'd start with like just 274 00:10:59.330 --> 00:11:01.960 the day, like. Talk me through getting up. 275 00:11:02.919 --> 00:11:05.740 So you're up in the morning. You're up quite early. 276 00:11:05.759 --> 00:11:08.820 So Sophia is now, it's the best part of parenting. 277 00:11:09.039 --> 00:11:11.740 She's self-sufficient, isn't it? She knows what she's doing, bro. 278 00:11:12.000 --> 00:11:15.279 She goes, be brushing her own teeth. It doesn't fall 279 00:11:15.320 --> 00:11:17.559 in the toilet. There's none of that drama about finding 280 00:11:17.620

--> 00:11:19.960 a spare toothbrush like we get with the younger lot. 281 00:11:20.200 --> 00:11:23.799 So she's very self-sufficient. Breakfast sorts herself out. Yeah, it's 282 00:11:23.840 --> 00:11:26.919 good vibes. She's got music on. She's doing her thing. 283 00:11:26.960 --> 00:11:30.360 She's basically just like a flat share. She's just like 284 00:11:30.399 --> 00:11:30.759 a lodger. 285 00:11:31.750 --> 00:11:35.629 She is. She's like a very mature lodger, yeah? She 286 00:11:35.690 --> 00:11:38.330 needs to get reminded to, like, change her socks and that. 287 00:11:38.350 --> 00:11:39.549 She's a bit of a tramp when it comes to that. 288 00:11:39.649 --> 00:11:42.490 But apart from that, she's sound. So the other three, 289 00:11:42.730 --> 00:11:46.509 two of them share a bedroom. And then you know 290 00:11:46.549 --> 00:11:50.029 they're up because, like, things start, like, loud bangs on 291 00:11:50.049 --> 00:11:52.809 the floor. So that's Ye and Wiggy. Ye and Wiggy 292 00:11:52.889 --> 00:11:56.389 are on a mad one. The littlest one, he's still 293 00:11:56.710 --> 00:11:58.830 between me and his mum in the bed. Right. 294 00:11:58.889 --> 00:11:59.330 Oh, right. 295 00:11:59.909 --> 00:12:02.620 He refuses to leave. But to be honest with you, 296 00:12:02.639 --> 00:12:04.840 me and my missus talk about this every day. We're 297 00:12:04.879 --> 00:12:08.139 now used to that setup pretty much since Sophia. So 298 00:12:08.200 --> 00:12:11.269 we've always had one little weirdo stuck between us. 299 00:12:11.269 --> 00:12:13.570 11 years, yeah. 300 00:12:13.769 --> 00:12:17.549 Yeah, 11 years on the bounce, bro. Even when you 301 00:12:17.590 --> 00:12:20.850 try and shift a kid out in between those periods, 302 00:12:21.110 --> 00:12:23.210 there's always one little pervert that opens the door in 303 00:12:23.230 --> 00:12:26.210 the night like, oh, dad, what's going on, dad? Can't sleep, man. 304 00:12:26.230 --> 00:12:28.720 So you can't be getting up to nothing anyway. So, 305 00:12:28.980 --> 00:12:29.509 you know what I mean? 306 00:12:29.750 --> 00:12:31.519 Well, you've had a good go at it. You've got four. 307 00:12:31.559 --> 00:12:32.480 You must have found some time. 308 00:12:32.980 --> 00:12:34.710 Yeah, fuck, he's got to get it in, isn't he? 309 00:12:34.720 --> 00:12:43.240 And I'm going to be able to see it all. 310 00:12:43.379 --> 00:12:44.820 When you look at all four of them, the run 311 00:12:44.860 --> 00:12:47.740 of it, what it's like on a daily basis, our 312 00:12:47.779 --> 00:12:50.259 lives do revolve around them. But I want to say 313 00:12:50.539 --> 00:12:53.759 in a positive way here, it's really fun for us. 314 00:12:54.019 --> 00:12:57.250 It's a mission. It's a mission every day. But me 315 00:12:57.269 --> 00:12:59.049 and her sometimes get a bit of quiet time. It's like, 316 00:12:59.649 --> 00:13:01.850 She'd look at me and she'd be like, you're fucking weird. 317 00:13:01.889 --> 00:13:03.610 And I'm like, yeah, you're right. Thank you. Let's get 318 00:13:03.629 --> 00:13:06.669 back to the kids. So they're a great balance for us. 319 00:13:06.710 --> 00:13:09.129 What do you think it's going to be like when you, like, 320 00:13:09.149 --> 00:13:10.789 can you remember what it was like when you were 321 00:13:10.950 --> 00:13:14.379 a couple? Just the two of you? How long ago 322 00:13:14.399 --> 00:13:15.000 does that feel? 323 00:13:15.320 --> 00:13:18.139 Long time. Different life, Joshy. Different life. I was up 324 00:13:18.179 --> 00:13:20.470 to all kinds of different things. I think for her, 325 00:13:20.850 --> 00:13:24.610 she was kind of like, he's my mate. It was 326 00:13:24.649 --> 00:13:26.710 never a lovey-dovey between me and her, so we were 327 00:13:26.750 --> 00:13:29.700 always mates, which was really important. So she was like, 328 00:13:30.779 --> 00:13:32.559 my mate might go to prison for a while. So 329 00:13:32.600 --> 00:13:34.679 she was used to that. And instead, she ended up 330 00:13:34.700 --> 00:13:38.139 in prison with her mate and just banged out four kids. So, 331 00:13:38.340 --> 00:13:42.110 you know, we're kind of in a version of prison 332 00:13:42.389 --> 00:13:45.370 because I go to work, she goes out and sees 333 00:13:45.409 --> 00:13:46.889 family and mates and stuff for a bit. But then 334 00:13:47.169 --> 00:13:49.889 both of us are like quite intensely back with the kids. 335 00:13:51.289 --> 00:13:53.240 But what life was like before that, I don't know. 336 00:13:53.250 --> 00:13:55.220 To be honest with you, I suppose why it's not 337 00:13:55.240 --> 00:13:57.779 that much of a change is my family set up 338 00:13:58.220 --> 00:14:00.659 since I was a kid is our houses have always 339 00:14:00.700 --> 00:14:03.539 been busy, innit? Like, when I go back to Cov 340 00:14:03.580 --> 00:14:06.139 now and I crack the front door, in my house 341 00:14:06.200 --> 00:14:09.500 will be, like, three nieces and nephews of mine who 342 00:14:09.519 --> 00:14:11.909 were very close to me, like, super close. My sister 343 00:14:11.929 --> 00:14:14.690 will be floating about. You know, one of her mates 344 00:14:14.710 --> 00:14:16.590 will be floating about the house. So for us, kind 345 00:14:16.610 --> 00:14:19.830 of like... we're always used to like go go go 346 00:14:19.850 --> 00:14:23.669 and i'm really bad at being like oh twiddling my 347 00:14:23.690 --> 00:14:25.480 thumbs on my own like what should i do here 348 00:14:25.840 --> 00:14:28.980 i always need like somebody about to have a laughing 349 00:14:29.000 --> 00:14:31.220 or feel happy so i suppose in that sense she's 350 00:14:31.240 --> 00:14:33.580 from a big family i'm from a really big family 351 00:14:33.879 --> 00:14:35.820 it's just like it's all we've ever known do you 352 00:14:35.840 --> 00:14:36.200 know what i. 353 00:14:36.200 --> 00:14:38.179 Mean yeah is there a family in coventry as well. 354

00:14:38.600 --> 00:14:39.960 Your family's in Cobb as well, yeah. 355 00:14:39.980 --> 00:14:42.080 Because that's the thing, like, you used to be a teacher, 356 00:14:42.100 --> 00:14:44.740 didn't you? And then you sort of broke through. But 357 00:14:44.779 --> 00:14:47.659 your rise to sort of success and being, you know, 358 00:14:47.919 --> 00:14:50.850 so busy with comedy and acting was quite quick. So 359 00:14:50.870 --> 00:14:52.830 you've gone from that set up with, you probably had 360 00:14:52.889 --> 00:14:55.769 a two-year-old daughter, you're a teacher, you're doing a few 361 00:14:55.809 --> 00:14:59.289 videos online, and, you know, your day's probably quite regimented, 362 00:14:59.309 --> 00:15:00.809 you know, where you are when you're on summer holidays. 363 00:15:00.830 --> 00:15:02.730 And then all of a sudden now you're flying around 364 00:15:02.750 --> 00:15:05.730 the world filming stuff. Your life's changed quite a lot. 365 00:15:06.309 --> 00:15:08.610 Did you feel that impacted on you as a dad 366 00:15:08.669 --> 00:15:11.149 and the kids? Cause you're physically not there enough. Luckily 367 00:15:11.450 --> 00:15:14.179 she's got support around her, your partner, but how's it 368 00:15:14.200 --> 00:15:16.120 for you not being there as regularly as you were 369 00:15:16.139 --> 00:15:17.440 in such a short amount of time? 370 00:15:18.059 --> 00:15:20.820 So it's kind of mad when I really think about it, 371 00:15:21.120 --> 00:15:24.399 we had, we just had our third when I first 372 00:15:24.539 --> 00:15:27.429 ever tried like a funny video or whatever. So we 373 00:15:27.629 --> 00:15:31.289 were already quite into the pairing. And I remember like, thinking, 374 00:15:31.330 --> 00:15:34.259 when I was teaching, like, I loved the fundamentals of 375 00:15:34.279 --> 00:15:37.139 being a teacher, interacting with the kids, and, you know, 376 00:15:37.559 --> 00:15:39.169 they weren't really used to having a teacher who was 377 00:15:39.210 --> 00:15:42.169 from their background, like, it was quite a fairy, so... 378 00:15:43.029 --> 00:15:45.480 All of that stuff was going on. But I was thinking, shit, man, 379 00:15:45.500 --> 00:15:47.000 if I keep teaching, this is going to kill me. 380 00:15:47.539 --> 00:15:51.320 Because it's so intense. It's like you finish work at 3.30 381 00:15:51.320 --> 00:15:53.879 or whatever, but now you're marking books till 2 a.m. 382 00:15:54.100 --> 00:15:56.710 It was killing me. But I always tried to maintain 383 00:15:56.730 --> 00:15:59.470 this family balance. And so when this stuff kicked off 384 00:15:59.529 --> 00:16:02.690 and things started coming in, I think I was quite 385 00:16:02.750 --> 00:16:04.710 aware that I wanted to grab them when I could 386 00:16:04.750 --> 00:16:08.440 and take them with me. So if it was like, oh, 387 00:16:08.460 --> 00:16:12.179 you're filming in Europe for three months on a bounce, 388 00:16:12.720 --> 00:16:15.100 I'd just generally speak to the school and be like, look, 389 00:16:15.360 --> 00:16:17.820 you know what my organization is like. It's shit. You've 390 00:16:17.840 --> 00:16:19.340 seen me going through the school gates in the morning. 391 00:16:19.759 --> 00:16:21.500 I've got this new job. I've got this new life. 392 00:16:22.299 --> 00:16:24.179 Do you reckon you can let the kids come with 393 00:16:24.220 --> 00:16:25.700 me for a bit? And they'd be like, they were 394 00:16:25.720 --> 00:16:26.960 really good. The schools were good. They were like, you 395 00:16:26.980 --> 00:16:28.899 know what? We will, but if it goes beyond this, 396 00:16:28.919 --> 00:16:30.740 we'll have to fine you. So I always took a 397 00:16:30.759 --> 00:16:31.840 bit of a fine in terms of. 398 00:16:31.820 --> 00:16:33.509 Them not being able to come with me. 399 00:16:35.970 --> 00:16:39.250 For weeks and then it became a thing because it's 400 00:16:39.269 --> 00:16:40.950 not you know what i mean it's like i've got 401 00:16:40.970 --> 00:16:42.750 child trafficking on my mind they're just with their. 402 00:16:42.669 --> 00:16:45.149 Dad it's just building in an extra tax. 403 00:16:45.309 --> 00:16:49.659 Yeah exactly bro exactly so so i've always i've always 404 00:16:49.720 --> 00:16:51.620 kind of been like get up and go and dino 405 00:16:51.659 --> 00:16:53.799 my missus that's a nickname like last summer when we 406 00:16:53.840 --> 00:16:55.940 were in la they stay with me nearly the whole 407 00:16:55.980 --> 00:16:57.860 time when we were in prague they were out for 408 00:16:57.899 --> 00:17:00.480 about six weeks oh wow i try and i try 409 00:17:00.519 --> 00:17:03.159 and build it in wherever i go bro for a 410 00:17:03.220 --> 00:17:05.799 bigger project that they come along with me. 411 00:17:06.240 --> 00:17:08.420 Do they enjoy it? That must be amazing as a 412 00:17:08.460 --> 00:17:12.250 kid to suddenly be in Prague or LA. I found 413 00:17:12.390 --> 00:17:14.369 that experience incredible when I was a kid. 414 00:17:14.829 --> 00:17:20.079 I mean, yeah. You know, there's a bit of a 415 00:17:20.539 --> 00:17:23.960 discrepancy between the kids. The first two, obviously, they're born 416 00:17:24.009 --> 00:17:25.970 on the same street that I grew up in. They're 417 00:17:25.990 --> 00:17:28.450 very used to, like, being a bit rowdy, Sophia and Ye. 418 00:17:28.670 --> 00:17:30.490 Then the other guy came, and he's a bit of 419 00:17:30.509 --> 00:17:32.509 a Pokemon. He's an anomaly, yeah? I love him for 420 00:17:32.549 --> 00:17:35.150 what he is, but he's, like, we take him kickboxing. 421 00:17:35.730 --> 00:17:38.400 Sophia and Ye are, like, swinging lefts and rights and that, 422 00:17:38.700 --> 00:17:40.740 and he's in the corner twirling, doing, like, Pokemon powers 423 00:17:40.779 --> 00:17:43.759 and stuff. So I'm like, yo, this kid, he's the 424 00:17:43.779 --> 00:17:45.500 separate guy. He's got his own thing going on. I 425

00:17:45.500 --> 00:17:48.099 love him for it. So, like, between them, Like, the 426 00:17:48.160 --> 00:17:51.650 first two, they're quite, like, a bit of the rough stuff. So, 427 00:17:51.690 --> 00:17:53.650 you know, when things are like, oh, shall we go 428 00:17:53.710 --> 00:17:56.569 to this nice restaurant or whatever? Them two are like, yeah, 429 00:17:56.710 --> 00:17:59.269 a bit lesbian. He's like, oh, dad, this is shit, man. 430 00:17:59.289 --> 00:18:01.970 Shall we just go Dixie or whatever? Shall we go Dixie? So, 431 00:18:02.529 --> 00:18:04.089 he's still on that. And I look at him and 432 00:18:04.109 --> 00:18:05.839 I'm in love with him, innit? Because I'm like, yes, bro, 433 00:18:05.859 --> 00:18:07.579 this is where we came from. And then the other 434 00:18:07.640 --> 00:18:10.779 one's like, oh, dad, do you think we could try Wagyu? 435 00:18:10.819 --> 00:18:12.140 I'm like, how the fuck do you even know what 436 00:18:12.160 --> 00:18:12.440 Wagyu is? 437 00:18:12.700 --> 00:18:13.819 How do you even know what that is? 438 00:18:15.400 --> 00:18:17.930 You know, you two watching Google food. So like when 439 00:18:17.950 --> 00:18:21.230 we go away, we have to try and fit in 440 00:18:21.309 --> 00:18:26.109 like quite normal rowdy stuff versus let's try this experience. 441 00:18:26.150 --> 00:18:28.650 But genuinely, when we go away, as long as we're 442 00:18:28.670 --> 00:18:32.720 together and we're in a nice gaff. Like, it's so 443 00:18:32.759 --> 00:18:34.680 much fun being with each other that we kind of 444 00:18:34.720 --> 00:18:35.720 just get on with it, you know what I mean? 445 00:18:35.740 --> 00:18:38.440 Yeah, of course. And your life's changed quite a lot. 446 00:18:38.460 --> 00:18:40.380 You know, you're still, you know, in cove with all 447 00:18:40.400 --> 00:18:42.660 your friends and family and stuff, and you try and 448 00:18:42.700 --> 00:18:45.180 keep as normal as possible, even though you are, like, 449 00:18:45.299 --> 00:18:47.849 in L.A. filming all this stuff. But do you find 450 00:18:47.880 --> 00:18:49.230 that it's going to be harder and harder as your 451 00:18:49.250 --> 00:18:52.769 kids get older and they're just experiencing different things to, 452 00:18:52.869 --> 00:18:53.710 you know, their peers? 453 00:18:54.309 --> 00:18:58.029 You know, it's mad, yeah. Like, and I genuinely check 454 00:18:58.069 --> 00:18:59.690 in with them a lot because to me it's like, 455 00:19:00.460 --> 00:19:02.009 Sometimes I get a bit weird with it, you know, 456 00:19:02.049 --> 00:19:04.329 it's like they're just kids, but chill out. But it 457 00:19:04.390 --> 00:19:08.710 does mean a lot to me that they remember where 458 00:19:08.750 --> 00:19:14.190 we're from. And that's partly in like where we spend time. 459 00:19:14.829 --> 00:19:16.950 So like this place in Hillfield where all my cousins 460 00:19:16.990 --> 00:19:18.880 and I used to get in mad trouble, but was 461 00:19:19.160 --> 00:19:22.019 conversely still part of the most fun part of my 462 00:19:22.039 --> 00:19:24.880 life growing up. We go back there regularly once or 463 00:19:24.940 --> 00:19:28.559 twice a week. And, you know, Hillies is a rough place. 464 00:19:29.180 --> 00:19:32.099 But I tend to do that. And, you know, as 465 00:19:32.140 --> 00:19:33.859 they get older, I never want to take them somewhere 466 00:19:33.920 --> 00:19:35.740 or show them something that they're like, oh, dad, I'm 467 00:19:35.809 --> 00:19:38.309 not really into that. But they really enjoy it. They 468 00:19:38.390 --> 00:19:41.029 enjoy me talking to aunties and uncles that I grew 469 00:19:41.069 --> 00:19:43.029 up with. Do you know what I mean? They always 470 00:19:43.130 --> 00:19:45.690 put a hand on their shoulder and my shoulder and 471 00:19:45.710 --> 00:19:48.910 just give us a reminder, like good advice or have 472 00:19:48.930 --> 00:19:51.970 a little laugh and a jokes. so for me bro 473 00:19:52.039 --> 00:19:55.579 kind of being on this journey it's like all this 474 00:19:55.660 --> 00:19:59.579 new stuff is cool But then also, I'm open with 475 00:19:59.599 --> 00:20:01.759 them and everybody. It's like, oh, this might go away tomorrow. 476 00:20:01.839 --> 00:20:03.700 That's like the mentality I still have. It's like, it's 477 00:20:03.759 --> 00:20:06.539 all good now. We're in LA doing this and HBO 478 00:20:06.559 --> 00:20:09.000 Studios and got my own show on TV. I go, 479 00:20:09.079 --> 00:20:11.900 in two years' time, if I'm doing Night Shift at Asda, 480 00:20:12.480 --> 00:20:15.029 here's what it is. And I genuinely try and put 481 00:20:15.049 --> 00:20:16.710 that into them. And they're not weirded out by it. 482 00:20:16.730 --> 00:20:18.750 They're like, yeah, man, we'll roll our sleeves up and 483 00:20:18.789 --> 00:20:20.910 do whatever we've got to do as well. So, yeah, 484 00:20:20.950 --> 00:20:21.750 that's important to me. 485 00:20:22.089 --> 00:20:24.029 Am I right in saying that there was a point 486 00:20:24.069 --> 00:20:26.839 when also you were living next door to your Either 487 00:20:26.859 --> 00:20:30.019 your parents or your in-laws at one point. Is that right? 488 00:20:30.660 --> 00:20:39.410 It's my mum. So technically that still happens. There'll be 489 00:20:39.470 --> 00:20:43.069 a few nights a week when the kids, we've got 490 00:20:43.089 --> 00:20:45.890 this new gaff, and they'll be scratching their head. I'll 491 00:20:45.910 --> 00:20:48.190 be like, you good? And they'll be like, yeah, shall 492 00:20:48.230 --> 00:20:49.750 we just go back to the old place for a bit? 493 00:20:49.890 --> 00:20:52.490 And I'm like, if you want. So they'll grab their 494 00:20:52.799 --> 00:20:56.380 school stuff. They'll grab switches or whatever. a few fundamentals, 495 00:20:56.539 --> 00:20:59.720 Pokemon cards, that guy. And then we'll jump in the 496 00:20:59.740 --> 00:21:01.539 car and we'll go back to the house

that's next 497 00:21:01.559 --> 00:21:04.259 door to my old day just because they enjoy that 498 00:21:04.299 --> 00:21:09.059 as well. And my mum's a... It sounds weird, but genuinely, 499 00:21:09.380 --> 00:21:11.279 it's a South Asian thing, isn't it? It's like a 500 00:21:11.319 --> 00:21:13.650 Caribbean thing. And in the area we grew up in, 501 00:21:13.680 --> 00:21:17.369 like white working-class Irish families, their mum and dads were 502 00:21:17.410 --> 00:21:21.569 always floating about. It's just something that we're so used 503 00:21:21.650 --> 00:21:24.509 to that if they're not there, like even my miss 504 00:21:24.529 --> 00:21:27.049 you know you get this old school like archetypal or 505 00:21:27.089 --> 00:21:30.529 like you know wives and mother-in-laws and what's the relationship 506 00:21:30.569 --> 00:21:33.019 like of course it can get a bit intense sometimes 507 00:21:33.299 --> 00:21:35.519 but even she's like shit man where is she the 508 00:21:35.539 --> 00:21:38.299 funny lad because my mum is my mum is a 509 00:21:38.400 --> 00:21:42.599 funny like my Jesus so we always we always kind 510 00:21:42.660 --> 00:21:46.609 of like float between the two places and that's that 511 00:21:46.809 --> 00:21:48.869 genuinely that's huge for the kids as well. 512 00:21:48.769 --> 00:21:51.029 Yeah also it's great for child care isn't it no 513 00:21:51.069 --> 00:21:53.049 bro of course of. 514 00:21:53.049 --> 00:21:55.039 Course they'll be coming back saying some weird things in 515 00:21:55.059 --> 00:21:59.000 Punjabi and that that's gonna get me cancelled but it's 516 00:21:59.079 --> 00:21:59.640 worth it. 517 00:22:01.730 --> 00:22:06.250 Do you offload all four at any point? Will your 518 00:22:06.269 --> 00:22:08.789 mum look after all four and then you go, this 519 00:22:08.869 --> 00:22:10.809 is a date night just for us? 520 00:22:11.230 --> 00:22:15.019 Generally with my mum, because she's in her mid-70s now 521 00:22:15.039 --> 00:22:17.059 and she's slowing down, if I leave her with more 522 00:22:17.079 --> 00:22:19.359 than one, a phone call will come quite quickly saying, 523 00:22:19.380 --> 00:22:21.599 come and get the * * * *. Like, that is... So.... 524 00:22:24.509 --> 00:22:25.450 One at a time, they're all. 525 00:22:25.470 --> 00:22:29.329 One at a time is just about magical. My sisters 526 00:22:29.369 --> 00:22:31.630 are wicked. So like both my sisters are in the 527 00:22:31.670 --> 00:22:34.539 city as well. So the kids go there and they 528 00:22:34.559 --> 00:22:36.839 have sleepovers. And like I said, my nieces and nephews 529 00:22:37.240 --> 00:22:39.779 are now at an age where, you know, to me, 530 00:22:40.140 --> 00:22:43.460 they're always like kids in your head. But, you know, 531 00:22:43.480 --> 00:22:45.130 they're 17, 18. A couple of them are 20 now. 532 00:22:45.150 --> 00:22:49.430 So they're also really good with the kids. But like 533 00:22:49.470 --> 00:22:51.690 I said at the

beginning, I genuinely can't remember when 534 00:22:51.710 --> 00:22:54.220 me and Dino have been able to say, Shall we 535 00:22:54.259 --> 00:22:57.130 go out and explore what this relationship is all about? 536 00:22:59.450 --> 00:22:59.970 Let's talk. 537 00:23:00.390 --> 00:23:02.509 Let's talk, buddy. Come on. What's really going on here? 538 00:23:02.750 --> 00:23:05.859 I think if we did, I'd be fine. We'd probably 539 00:23:05.900 --> 00:23:09.980 be divorced next week. So I'm quite happy. one to 540 00:23:10.009 --> 00:23:12.569 four kids still floating about you know what I mean. 541 00:23:12.490 --> 00:23:15.690 I think papering over the cracks is underrated yeah oh 542 00:23:15.730 --> 00:23:16.950 yeah yo. 543 00:23:16.970 --> 00:23:20.150 Why don't you try and investigate the mould and keep 544 00:23:20.190 --> 00:23:21.210 building it. 545 00:23:21.769 --> 00:23:26.259 In just repaint it it'll be fine you know are 546 00:23:26.539 --> 00:23:28.079 you done at four though are you going are you 547 00:23:28.359 --> 00:23:30.980 having more or is four enough yeah I don't. 548 00:23:30.859 --> 00:23:34.299 Want her to die so I think four is definitely 549 00:23:34.319 --> 00:23:36.700 a lot and after the last one she's like I've 550 00:23:36.740 --> 00:23:40.910 nearly died there oh was it bad she's like it's 551 00:23:41.170 --> 00:23:45.480 I think every time it's a wondrous forward slash horrifying 552 00:23:45.519 --> 00:23:47.420 thing isn't it like when you really think about it 553 00:23:47.480 --> 00:23:50.390 it's fucking mad bro there's another person coming out of 554 00:23:50.410 --> 00:23:51.450 a person bro. 555 00:23:51.549 --> 00:23:52.490 This is mad shit. 556 00:23:55.519 --> 00:23:57.819 It's just funky. Even the first one was like, it's 557 00:23:57.880 --> 00:23:59.539 a bit much, that. Like, you know what I mean? 558 00:23:59.559 --> 00:24:01.980 Yeah, if you saw it on Game of Thrones and 559 00:24:02.019 --> 00:24:03.720 you didn't know about childbirth, you'd go, I think he's 560 00:24:03.769 --> 00:24:06.390 gone too far this show. That's mental. 561 00:24:06.430 --> 00:24:11.069 Bro, 100% bro, just like, you know what? The main 562 00:24:11.089 --> 00:24:13.259 thing that stressed me out when the nurse said it, 563 00:24:13.470 --> 00:24:15.410 when the nurse said it, it was just a little thing. 564 00:24:15.670 --> 00:24:17.849 And she's gone to me, oh, it's going to be 565 00:24:17.890 --> 00:24:22.450 a lot of mucus. I was going, ugh. I've got 566 00:24:22.559 --> 00:24:25.200 a number of mucus like that. It's just coming out 567 00:24:25.220 --> 00:24:28.140 of your lungs. You're getting antibiotics. You're going on the ventilator. 568 00:24:28.319 --> 00:24:30.079 You might have told me that all bare mucus just 569 00:24:30.220 --> 00:24:32.470 flooding the floor up. It's very stressful for me. So 570 00:24:32.509 --> 00:24:34.309 I have to bless her. She needs to hold off. 571 00:24:35.589 --> 00:24:37.890 How were you in L.A. with him? Because, you know, 572 00:24:37.930 --> 00:24:40.240 you're full of beans, very laughy and jokey, but it 573 00:24:40.480 --> 00:24:43.240 is serious, isn't it? Did you struggle with that? 574 00:24:43.279 --> 00:24:46.599 When we was in L.A., it was like a semi-lockdown still, 575 00:24:46.619 --> 00:24:50.589 isn't it? So everyone, I think, as a parent and 576 00:24:51.009 --> 00:24:52.930 whether you're a carer or whatever it is, I've been 577 00:24:53.009 --> 00:24:55.789 quite used to people are under your feet all the time, 578 00:24:55.809 --> 00:24:58.650 isn't it? Like, you know, that's just something. Even people 579 00:24:58.869 --> 00:25:01.210 who are like, yeah, I've got mates who are like, yeah, 580 00:25:01.289 --> 00:25:03.619 parenting's okay. But I like my alone time. Even they 581 00:25:03.640 --> 00:25:05.180 were like, look, we've got to get on with it. 582 00:25:05.420 --> 00:25:08.539 Kids are here. Let's kill the pandemic. Fucking hell. But 583 00:25:08.839 --> 00:25:10.880 I better be nice to them. So when we were 584 00:25:10.900 --> 00:25:13.990 in L.A., for a little bit, we kind of felt 585 00:25:14.130 --> 00:25:16.269 isolated because for the first time we were away from 586 00:25:16.329 --> 00:25:20.799 like this big my mates, her mates, sisters, social circle. 587 00:25:21.259 --> 00:25:26.349 But we stayed in this quite like. it's archetypal thing 588 00:25:26.369 --> 00:25:27.069 they do they put you. 589 00:25:27.029 --> 00:25:29.630 In like well this is like Hollywood and this is 590 00:25:29.650 --> 00:25:31.480 where this guy lives and that guy lives and we're 591 00:25:31.500 --> 00:25:33.980 like I don't even fuck about it I don't even 592 00:25:34.000 --> 00:25:37.779 know who he is so when we got there we 593 00:25:37.819 --> 00:25:40.619 stayed in that area didn't like it it was you 594 00:25:40.640 --> 00:25:43.430 felt kind of isolated and when you start getting to 595 00:25:43.470 --> 00:25:46.549 know the city a bit you realize that the areas 596 00:25:46.569 --> 00:25:47.150 that are like. 597 00:25:48.589 --> 00:25:50.470 Affluent where they want you to stay that they think 598 00:25:50.529 --> 00:25:53.759 are cool. You're physically looking down on all of the 599 00:25:53.819 --> 00:25:55.539 poverty in LA. It's mad. 600 00:25:55.579 --> 00:25:59.240 The homelessness is crazy, isn't it? And Rob, it's horrible, 601 00:25:59.299 --> 00:25:59.500 isn't it? 602 00:25:59.500 --> 00:26:01.079 Because when you're standing on the top of one of 603 00:26:01.119 --> 00:26:04.539 these like swanky places where people live and you are 604 00:26:04.660 --> 00:26:07.289 physically looking down on some of the poorest people on 605 00:26:07.309 --> 00:26:09.990 planet earth, it was horrible. And like the kids were like, 606 00:26:10.029 --> 00:26:12.190 we don't really like this. So we moved to another 607 00:26:12.210 --> 00:26:14.809 part of LA where there was a big

Latino community 608 00:26:14.869 --> 00:26:19.599 and And, yo, we felt fully at home. Grandmas, granddads 609 00:26:19.700 --> 00:26:22.920 packing out the yard. Eight people in the house. And 610 00:26:22.960 --> 00:26:24.599 when we moved in there, we got a little house 611 00:26:24.640 --> 00:26:27.960 in between this community. That's when our LA thing really 612 00:26:28.000 --> 00:26:30.079 took off. My kids would run next door, play with 613 00:26:30.099 --> 00:26:33.759 their kids. That just felt so much more comfortable for us. 614 00:26:33.869 --> 00:26:37.990 Do you find that with four, I can't imagine you 615 00:26:38.609 --> 00:26:44.089 as a disciplinarian. You don't strike me as someone... I mean... 616 00:26:44.970 --> 00:26:46.069 Are you measured? 617 00:26:46.089 --> 00:26:46.869 Have you got rules? 618 00:26:47.049 --> 00:26:48.349 Or you just, how does it work? 619 00:26:48.809 --> 00:26:53.150 Joshy, this is something I thought as well. Sometimes you've 620 00:26:53.170 --> 00:26:55.130 got a comedian coming up, this lady. 621 00:26:55.390 --> 00:26:57.910 I suppose you're a teacher as well. So you're used 622 00:26:57.950 --> 00:26:58.549 to it, right? 623 00:26:58.829 --> 00:27:02.359 If it's always like more positive vibes and everyone's laughing 624 00:27:02.390 --> 00:27:06.160 and joking and stuff. Yeah. Like when that tone shift comes, 625 00:27:06.579 --> 00:27:09.099 there's a real feeling of like... Oh, fuck, yeah. Oh, 626 00:27:09.140 --> 00:27:12.640 my God. And if the undercurrent is, oh, look at 627 00:27:12.680 --> 00:27:17.099 your dad, this... fat little like he's always laughing all 628 00:27:17.119 --> 00:27:19.920 the time and now fucking look he's fucking there in 629 00:27:19.960 --> 00:27:22.579 the kitchen depressed and that it's like oh shit i 630 00:27:22.599 --> 00:27:24.900 better change my ways look i really fucked up the 631 00:27:24.940 --> 00:27:27.880 whole context with my daddy or and you know for their. 632 00:27:27.640 --> 00:27:29.759 Mom as well yeah yeah even. 633 00:27:29.680 --> 00:27:31.599 Including you guys how do the rest of the family 634 00:27:31.619 --> 00:27:33.500 obviously you're super proud of it but are you like 635 00:27:34.339 --> 00:27:36.440 when your kid can do something much better than you 636 00:27:36.660 --> 00:27:38.539 it's a bit stressful isn't it. 637 00:27:42.230 --> 00:27:45.490 I've got that with drawing and my daughter. She'll ask 638 00:27:45.529 --> 00:27:48.289 me to draw stuff because she's really into drawing. And 639 00:27:48.369 --> 00:27:50.910 she draws with her... Rose can draw and Rose's mum's 640 00:27:50.950 --> 00:27:52.980 an artist. So they can draw stuff with her and 641 00:27:53.039 --> 00:27:56.240 show her how to draw stuff. I'm so shit at drawing. 642 00:27:57.019 --> 00:27:58.599 To the point where we'll draw on the same piece 643 00:27:58.640 --> 00:28:01.859 of paper. And then normally when she's drawing with Rose 644 00:28:01.900

--> 00:28:03.380 or whatever, you can tell which is which. 645 00:28:03.880 --> 00:28:04.700 But we're literally. 646 00:28:04.789 --> 00:28:07.329 And this is as much a reflection on me. It's 647 00:28:07.450 --> 00:28:09.890 of a level. And so Rose will come in and 648 00:28:09.910 --> 00:28:12.890 she can't tell the difference between what my daughter is 649 00:28:12.930 --> 00:28:15.710 for is drawn and I've drawn. It's fucking pathetic. 650 00:28:15.809 --> 00:28:17.730 I think it's a good thing when you're young to 651 00:28:17.970 --> 00:28:20.470 work out what you're not naturally really good at and 652 00:28:20.509 --> 00:28:23.309 just bin it off. And something you've got an inclination 653 00:28:23.369 --> 00:28:25.279 to and just hammer that because you only need one 654 00:28:25.359 --> 00:28:27.839 or two things you can do. No one wants, you know, 655 00:28:27.880 --> 00:28:29.420 no one wants a jack of all trades. 656 00:28:29.819 --> 00:28:31.920 But she's not gone to school yet, and she's already 657 00:28:31.980 --> 00:28:36.380 worked out that her dad isn't, you know, isn't infinitely 658 00:28:36.440 --> 00:28:39.519 perfect and good at stuff, which it should take kids 659 00:28:39.619 --> 00:28:41.109 longer than four. 660 00:28:41.529 --> 00:28:44.289 I think mine knew early doors, to be honest. Do 661 00:28:44.329 --> 00:28:45.809 your kids watch the stuff you do, guys? 662 00:28:46.349 --> 00:28:51.069 Yeah, like a little bit. I think the one I 663 00:28:51.190 --> 00:28:54.950 enjoyed most is quite Man Like Moby and stuff. But 664 00:28:55.930 --> 00:29:00.220 apart from that, whether it be my mission, they're obviously, 665 00:29:00.720 --> 00:29:03.069 and they say, like, look, mate, we're proud of what 666 00:29:03.089 --> 00:29:07.710 you're doing. where we've all come thus far. But it's really, like, 667 00:29:07.809 --> 00:29:11.190 quite normal at home. And there's always, like, a million 668 00:29:11.650 --> 00:29:13.369 other things to chat about. You know what I mean? 669 00:29:13.390 --> 00:29:14.609 Like, there's always. 670 00:29:14.430 --> 00:29:16.849 Something going off at school or with their cousins or 671 00:29:16.869 --> 00:29:20.549 with their mates. Like, recently, I'm late to the party, but, like, 672 00:29:20.769 --> 00:29:23.670 I got involved in Fortnite with them towards the end 673 00:29:23.730 --> 00:29:26.750 of summer holiday. And they're all too young to be 674 00:29:26.769 --> 00:29:32.140 playing it, technically. But I quite liked... Wiggy the one 675 00:29:32.180 --> 00:29:35.690 doing all like the Kamehameha moves in the corner yeah 676 00:29:35.910 --> 00:29:37.910 it's the first time I've ever really seen him aggressive 677 00:29:38.190 --> 00:29:40.740 so I quite like I quite like the fact that 678 00:29:41.140 --> 00:29:44.829 he's on the computer too young and like blood pressure 679 00:29:44.849 --> 00:29:47.069 going up a couple of swears slip out I don't 680 00:29:47.109 --> 00:29:48.289 even mind you know what I mean. 681 00:29:48.369 --> 00:29:50.450 It's good to see someone do it I do love 682 00:29:50.470 --> 00:29:53.490 seeing them like competitive or passionate about something. You know, 683 00:29:53.509 --> 00:29:55.750 when they're really into something, it's quite nice to see 684 00:29:55.769 --> 00:29:57.109 they've got a bit of fire in their belly. 685 00:29:57.130 --> 00:29:59.089 A hundred percent, bro. And so like, I kind of 686 00:29:59.109 --> 00:30:02.259 got into, I kind of got into that with them. 687 00:30:02.299 --> 00:30:03.940 But when it comes to like stuff that I do 688 00:30:03.980 --> 00:30:07.220 as a career, I actually find it really comforting that 689 00:30:07.299 --> 00:30:10.460 everyone's like, All good? I'm like, yeah, all good. Sound, 690 00:30:10.480 --> 00:30:12.960 let's get on with life. That's really what it's like. 691 00:30:13.339 --> 00:30:15.420 Would you let them watch your stand-up? You're going to 692 00:30:15.440 --> 00:30:19.009 the Harold Pinter Theatre in September 21st to the 23rd. 693 00:30:19.039 --> 00:30:22.289 You can get your tickets now. Doing your, well, it's 694 00:30:22.309 --> 00:30:24.829 a brand new live stand-up show. It's your first one 695 00:30:24.970 --> 00:30:25.670 in three years. 696 00:30:26.029 --> 00:30:27.130 Yeah, I don't know why I'm doing that. 697 00:30:27.289 --> 00:30:30.589 I'll be honest. 698 00:30:31.940 --> 00:30:32.400 It's soon. 699 00:30:32.460 --> 00:30:33.369 It's a couple of weeks. 700 00:30:33.630 --> 00:30:35.910 Oh, fucking no, mate. I know. 701 00:30:36.230 --> 00:30:37.210 Have you done warm-up gigs? 702 00:30:37.230 --> 00:30:43.359 I haven't done nothing, mate. Listen, I just told the truth. 703 00:30:43.400 --> 00:30:45.519 I've been playing Fortnite last five weeks with the kids 704 00:30:45.740 --> 00:30:47.460 till like 2 a.m. That's what I've been doing. So 705 00:30:47.519 --> 00:30:50.859 if the material is around like aim bots and people 706 00:30:50.920 --> 00:30:53.759 who cheat for V-books, it'll be a banger of a show, mate. 707 00:30:54.049 --> 00:30:56.349 If it ain't about that, then good luck. 708 00:30:56.650 --> 00:31:01.289 Oh, guys, I've just Google imaged it, mate. It's absolutely beautiful. 709 00:31:01.549 --> 00:31:03.329 It's an hour and 20 minutes long. Do you know that? 710 00:31:03.849 --> 00:31:04.430 Fucking hell. 711 00:31:04.430 --> 00:31:11.309 20 quid a ticket, though. Pretty good value. I think 712 00:31:11.349 --> 00:31:12.630 that'll be a great show. 713 00:31:12.710 --> 00:31:16.190 In the West End, that is absolutely excellent value. 714 00:31:16.250 --> 00:31:17.529 21st, 22nd, 23rd of September. 715 00:31:18.150 --> 00:31:20.210 Thank you. This is the angle we're going with. You see, 716 00:31:20.230 --> 00:31:23.029 this is the reason why I chose to do these shows, 717 00:31:23.089 --> 00:31:26.509 because we're doing tickets at the most competitive rate, the 718 00:31:26.549

--> 00:31:28.609 most affordable rate with what's coming in at the moment. 719 00:31:29.069 --> 00:31:32.539 And the people that I represent, lads, okay, I'm giving 720 00:31:32.579 --> 00:31:34.720 them an opportunity to feel a little slice of the 721 00:31:34.759 --> 00:31:37.630 West End. Yes. A little slice of it. But at 722 00:31:37.779 --> 00:31:41.599 an incredibly competitive rate, despite the fact that I'm going 723 00:31:41.619 --> 00:31:43.900 to be talking shit about Fortnite and that for an 724 00:31:43.920 --> 00:31:44.500 hour and 20. 725 00:31:44.500 --> 00:31:44.880 Yeah. 726 00:31:45.059 --> 00:31:46.059 It doesn't matter.

But they've 790 00:34:35.849 --> 00:34:38.690 all told me, the older three, that they want to 791 00:34:38.710 --> 00:34:40.650 try stand-up.

I'm always chatting 833 00:36:34.079 --> 00:36:35.800 to him. I think, do you know what it is? 834 00:36:35.820 --> 00:36:38.679 I think when you're a comedian and you're self-employed, your 835 00:36:38.719 --> 00:36:40.639 day's a bit floatier because you sort of choose what 836 00:36:40.659 --> 00:36:43.280 you do, and sometimes you're really busy, sometimes you're not. 837 00:36:43.320 --> 00:36:44.699 And I feel like I've got more in common with 838 00:36:44.739 --> 00:36:47.949 retired people. than people that are working a nine to five. 839 00:36:48.579 --> 00:36:50.099 It's one of the saddest things I've ever heard, Rob. 840 00:36:55.179 --> 00:36:58.820 The 35-year-old man or whatever you are, hanging out on 841 00:36:58.880 --> 00:37:02.360 park benches, sharing a packet of Fox's Glacier Mints with 842 00:37:02.400 --> 00:37:05.480 an 80-year-old, talking about when the world was a better place. 843 00:37:05.500 --> 00:37:07.340 Retired people have got less to prove, haven't they? They're 844 00:37:07.360 --> 00:37:08.159 just sort of chilled. 845 00:37:09.400 --> 00:37:12.380 I've genuinely found that. People who are your age are 846 00:37:12.400 --> 00:37:16.519 always like, what's going to work?
