[00:00:00] Listener discretion is advised. Hello and welcome to Comedy, the podcast that helps you find new, emerging and undiscovered independent comedy podcasts.
[00:00:30] Thank you for watching today's episode. Make sure to check out the episode description for links to subscribe.
[00:00:34] Alright, let's get this show started. Begin!
[00:00:37] Help is a wee nod sir. I'm Mark, still on the cross the table from me. Is?
[00:00:41] Jenny Steele, we've got to mention haven't we Mark what we've just discovered.
[00:00:44] That makes it sound like you've made some real scientific breakthrough or something like that. What have you discovered?
[00:00:50] Well, we were in the garage gonna just touch up our work, we've got a bit of bark along our board as an auntway
[00:00:56] so we get to the back of a bark out and what ran out of the back of a bark. We think it was mother-mouse don't we?
[00:01:02] It was a field most that went skating over into the field.
[00:01:05] Yes, and then in the bark what was the mark for babies?
[00:01:10] No I don't like my, they're absolutely freaked me out. I couldn't deal with it so Mark had to deal with it
[00:01:16] and you know what the shocking thing is? What?
[00:01:18] We've got SOTY! C. Just didn't even pay attention I have Oscar that comes round all the time
[00:01:24] and he never even noticed I've now put an advert on SOTY's page to ask if we could borrow somebody's chief mouser
[00:01:31] just for the day, just so they can check the rest of the garage out and make sure there's no more in there.
[00:01:36] You're talking about cats here, you're not talking about people.
[00:01:38] I needed a cat, a chief mouser so if anybody's got a cat that they want to loan me for the day that is wicked, catching the misk
[00:01:45] I would treat him to dream is if they come my way.
[00:01:49] But then if you're trying to get the cat to go after whatever field mice might be in there,
[00:01:54] inciting them a fidget will put them off so you have to starve the cat and then let it chase because it's after the scorn
[00:02:00] That's what you've got there. But they ruined the beautiful autumn reef, it was only bored at.
[00:02:04] At least somebody enjoyed it and I'm not, I'm going more positively.
[00:02:10] We are enjoying it on the week that a new emoji has been announced.
[00:02:13] Oh yes. Well was it announced last week, this should get into happen last week but new emoji was announced.
[00:02:20] What do you think it's for? It's for the coronation.
[00:02:25] Yes indeed is a picture of a purple crown and it is for a new coronation.
[00:02:29] I'm much like a phrase Platy Jubes. I don't think it's something we'll be talking about in ten years time.
[00:02:34] When you say a coronation I think of Ines Harples, Betlinx that sort of thing.
[00:02:39] Coronation Street. Oh I was looking completely lost there and like what are you on about?
[00:02:45] Are you on the plant or somebody connected to the plants for some reason?
[00:02:48] I figured about the coronation, it's coming up as a couple of weekends away now isn't it?
[00:02:52] I'm only glad because it's a bank holiday.
[00:02:54] Yeah and I'll probably be drunk in my garden trying not to set fire to the fence where we were wrecking the old bar
[00:02:59] But that's just any normal side even in the winter.
[00:03:02] And then a more positive note because we're going up from mice to Platy Jubes Mark 2 to the postbag is arrived.
[00:03:09] Yeah and off the back of April Fool's Day we asked you what your favourite prank was.
[00:03:15] Slapbox got in touch with the old chestnut of swapping identities with one of your mates.
[00:03:21] I'm sure there's been films about that sort of thing, you know sort like mind swap, freaky friday type stuff.
[00:03:26] Anyway it's up up to me touch it. It's what were you on your mates when you had a new relief teacher in high school
[00:03:32] and he still remembers getting a mate detention on one occasion and a high grade on a test.
[00:03:38] Oh wow!
[00:03:39] There we go I must say people used to get confused between me and my brother but we never actually tried to fool them
[00:03:45] because we weren't twins and it was bad enough already.
[00:03:48] So we didn't want to add to it on top of that.
[00:03:51] It's also been touch seeing chaining the CDs into random covers when friends had their collections all sort of chronologically or alphabetically or whatever it was.
[00:04:01] Then suggesting they put one on and just watching the furrowed brows and loops of confusion.
[00:04:06] I've done that one myself actually.
[00:04:08] Yeah, accidentally admittedly.
[00:04:11] Never mind doing it to anyone else and that's my excuse for why my sleen Dion albums were in my grandfifth.5.
[00:04:18] And I'll not know. I think it's time for a wee nazar.
[00:04:24] It's amazing how it's the little things in life that wind you up isn't it?
[00:04:29] Like me being tall which means traffic lights are a problem for me and that's not the reason you're thinking of walking down the street and...
[00:04:37] I swear it's my kids and them all the time.
[00:04:39] That's not the reason for it.
[00:04:41] It's having to lean out the window because the roof is pretty much any car I've ever been in in my life.
[00:04:47] Boxed my view of the traffic lights. If I'm the first car in a queue, I can't actually see the lights unless I'm bending my tap.
[00:04:54] Bending our back into weird shapes are leaning out of the window.
[00:04:58] And this is genuinely just a tall person issue you never think about but it's such a little thing.
[00:05:03] I'm stressed because I'm normally the passenger.
[00:05:06] That's why I get you to shout when it goes green.
[00:05:09] I just can't see it. But another one is...
[00:05:12] And this was got worse when I had brat problems.
[00:05:15] Why is the world built for small people?
[00:05:19] Now, I only really started this got home to me was because I had a bad problem in it I couldn't bend over.
[00:05:25] But not without being an excruciating pain.
[00:05:28] So then meant hand dryers, kitchen surfaces and even at the shops.
[00:05:33] I'm six foot four. I haven't been bending over. It was excruciating pain.
[00:05:38] I got a grid at semi squatting when I had to do any of that sort of thing.
[00:05:43] Which is nothing to do with being on the toilet.
[00:05:47] How about you Jenny? Are there any small things that wind you up?
[00:05:52] There was a things while meal, everything seems to be while meal.
[00:05:56] You're always joking about it.
[00:05:58] Picking the toilet that's got no toilet roll in it.
[00:06:01] We just say that was a small thing.
[00:06:03] I have a cubicle of 12 and I'll pick one and it'll be guaranteed the one that hasn't got any toilet roll left.
[00:06:09] So you're saying you don't do the check?
[00:06:12] So when you go to a public toilet and then there's a reindeer cubicle and you have to use a cubicle.
[00:06:17] There's no choice. That is your only option.
[00:06:20] And I go in and there isn't any.
[00:06:22] Another thing is people that say, erm, all the time.
[00:06:26] You know when you're listening to somebody on an interview like on another radio station.
[00:06:34] And then they can't string a sentence together because every other word is erm.
[00:06:40] And that really does wind meal and I don't know if that's a small thing either.
[00:06:43] Because that winds me up as well.
[00:06:45] Well the thing is almost everyone does that in real life.
[00:06:48] I do it in real life, I'm sure you do it in real life.
[00:06:51] You're supposed to do. Take pause and think about it
[00:06:54] and then it doesn't matter.
[00:06:56] A little bit of what do you call it?
[00:06:59] I want to call it dead air, but I went on this training course to do like a presentation.
[00:07:04] And we were filmed doing our presentation and most of us did the erm, like that every time.
[00:07:12] And then when you look at it back, you're like your cringy and the things advice we were given is things like
[00:07:17] just take a little bit of a pause think about what you want to say next.
[00:07:21] You know it doesn't matter if you've got that little bit of silence you're thinking about what's coming next rather than
[00:07:27] because you sound like you're talking about if every other word is erm erm.
[00:07:30] I sound like Boris Johnson now don't I?
[00:07:33] I'm allowed to say that.
[00:07:35] You can see that all you like when we're not regulated at this point and we're not paying for this.
[00:07:40] It doesn't have any good likes and expense over like so you could,
[00:07:42] so long as we're not going to get sued you can see what you're like.
[00:07:45] Oh right.
[00:07:46] Of course it's them.
[00:07:47] But what I was going to say is you so your suggestion is that you stop,
[00:07:52] you don't say anything.
[00:07:53] You have a think but life would be so boring if everyone did that.
[00:07:57] It wouldn't be so many arguments in the world.
[00:08:01] You can't get very boring.
[00:08:03] So we're going to open this up to you.
[00:08:05] Let's start what is the small thing that really winds you up?
[00:08:08] Couple ways to get in touch on the socials at Solitude Radio UK or at Solitude or even if you're on Spotify
[00:08:16] the questions popped up you can tap on it stick your answer in there and we will share your pain in the next episode.
[00:08:21] I've got one more.
[00:08:22] Uh oh.
[00:08:23] When you're ringing up a call centre and you get that your call is important to us.
[00:08:26] Please stay on the line and you're like it's my important to you at all.
[00:08:29] You don't absolutely care at all whether you talk to me or not.
[00:08:32] Otherwise you'd be talking to me.
[00:08:33] I hate that.
[00:08:34] I totally know where you come from and you're right.
[00:08:36] The call is not important to the organisation or they would have actually just spoken to you.
[00:08:41] This is the thing.
[00:08:42] Customer service departments and this is not mean making up a conspiracy or anything like that.
[00:08:47] Customer service departments exist purely because management don't actually want to deal with their customers.
[00:08:54] You can't forget to manage your super files when you ask for one.
[00:08:56] There are always in a meeting.
[00:08:57] Of course there.
[00:08:58] There's a tishers meeting or they're in a training session.
[00:09:01] That's because they might have a supervisor who's scheduling time or whatever.
[00:09:05] They won't have somebody there to take escalations.
[00:09:07] The whole point of a customer service department is to isolate management of an organisation
[00:09:12] from the people that actually have to suffer whatever nonsense they put in out.
[00:09:16] That's the whole point behind the customer service department.
[00:09:18] What are you important to me?
[00:09:23] I just want to talk about postage charges.
[00:09:26] Have you ever had to pay for something because something has been delivered
[00:09:29] and they're not the person that sent it hasn't paid in or putting stamps on.
[00:09:34] We're going to collect it from somewhere and you've got to pay to click.
[00:09:38] I don't mean none of these scams, I mean legit.
[00:09:40] Yeah, because you get to notice through the door saying, by the way,
[00:09:43] somebody's trying to send you something.
[00:09:45] It's going to cost you another couple of quit on top of whatever postage didn't pay.
[00:09:49] Yeah, I was just chatting to a few friends.
[00:09:52] I must mention this on a wee nap time.
[00:09:54] I'd had something saying that I had to pay it.
[00:09:57] I think it's about too quit or something to get some piece of mail.
[00:10:02] I can't exactly remember what it was by a member at the time, but it was literally junk mail.
[00:10:05] I thought, I can't believe I've paid too quit for this.
[00:10:08] But one of my friends has actually set what a couple have actually come back with.
[00:10:11] They got charged 22 quid customs fee for two bits of plastic from Japan.
[00:10:17] Now, it depends on what those bits of plastic are.
[00:10:19] If we're talking like little washers or something like that, they'll cost two P.E.
[00:10:23] That's ridiculous.
[00:10:24] If we're talking like a custom made part for something that costs free grand,
[00:10:29] do I see a quid's not too bad for an import fee?
[00:10:32] Maybe it can't be if the same 22 quids had, but the thing that made me nearly spill me coffee
[00:10:36] made the mistake of having a sip of coffee as I read this next one.
[00:10:40] I nearly, it nearly went all over my dress.
[00:10:42] Somebody said to me that they once had to pay for a letter telling them that been made redundant
[00:10:47] because the company forgot to pay postage.
[00:10:50] I mean, it's funny what it's not. Do you know what I mean?
[00:10:53] Oh, you know what?
[00:10:54] Come, come, come, come, this can be very impersonal when they have to let you go.
[00:10:57] Yeah.
[00:10:58] If we're come, if we're I need to think of things this brutally, but the end of day a job
[00:11:02] is a transaction.
[00:11:03] It's, you know, they're paying you for as long as you're delivering a service and at some
[00:11:07] point one of you is going to terminate it.
[00:11:09] And jobs don't last forever unless you own the company and even then it may not.
[00:11:13] But bit depressing, there are ways of dealing with letting people go.
[00:11:18] I'm paying for your own redundant still letter because if we've got to pop by mistake on me.
[00:11:24] Yeah, I'd be the other say your table.
[00:11:26] It's not fun having to let somebody go.
[00:11:28] No, no, that's trying to do it by letter.
[00:11:31] You pay for the privilege of having the letter telling you you've got no job.
[00:11:35] Oh, that's just.
[00:11:36] I don't know what the company was.
[00:11:37] Obviously I wouldn't say if I did, but just thought about it a bit.
[00:11:40] I'd love to mention this.
[00:11:41] Just in case that's kind of happened to anybody else, if they know the fault half.
[00:11:45] And I mean, as I said before, it's legit.
[00:11:47] I don't mean any of these, you know, you've won five million pound.
[00:11:49] Please send us your bank details so we can pay it in and you need to pay a 250 pound administrative
[00:11:53] fee.
[00:11:54] I'm not talking about anything like that.
[00:11:56] I'm talking about legit stuff where somebody has either not paid enough postage or, you know,
[00:12:00] it's just fun.
[00:12:01] Yeah, yeah.
[00:12:02] Can you top that one?
[00:12:03] Well, this is it.
[00:12:04] My mind is still stuck on me.
[00:12:06] Somebody being like, go that way because that's more brutal than the most brutal way I've seen
[00:12:11] somebody go and that was, I'm not going to give names away, but we can in Europe was something
[00:12:16] under her eyes and going into the meeting.
[00:12:19] It was never spoken about out loud, but we knew that a lot of people weren't going to walk
[00:12:23] out with jobs at the end of it.
[00:12:24] We get what we kind of knew it was coming.
[00:12:26] Yeah.
[00:12:27] But we went into this meeting.
[00:12:28] There was this presentation blah, blah, blah, new brand, etc, etc.
[00:12:31] Bright new future.
[00:12:33] We don't need half of you yet.
[00:12:35] And then they stick this video on and it had a whole bunch of pop stars off the time talking
[00:12:41] about how this new venture was going to be amazing.
[00:12:44] Great.
[00:12:45] And you're sitting there and you're thinking, so wait a minute.
[00:12:47] I'm going to spend a load of money on a marketing video with all these pop stars telling them
[00:12:52] that all these people are fake, they're going to work with jobs but not telling us about it.
[00:12:57] That's terrifying.
[00:12:58] That's it.
[00:12:59] So effectively I had colleagues who were fired by JLS.
[00:13:02] Oh.
[00:13:03] That was crazy.
[00:13:04] They mean the band.
[00:13:05] That was just one of the artists.
[00:13:08] That gives you an idea of sort of unit happy.
[00:13:10] It's just how brutal.
[00:13:12] But even compared to that having to pay for your own redundancy later.
[00:13:16] That is brutal.
[00:13:17] Nice brutal.
[00:13:18] That is brutal.
[00:13:19] This is going to sound absolutely mad, but I have come across a conspiracy.
[00:13:33] I actually believe.
[00:13:34] Oh.
[00:13:35] Think back years ago, like not yesterday, you know, with Easter just passing and all that.
[00:13:42] What did you use to find in the shops at Easter?
[00:13:45] I went down, we came after Easter.
[00:13:50] Even before Easter.
[00:13:52] What wasn't in the shops?
[00:13:55] Capric crewmakes.
[00:13:56] Yeah.
[00:13:57] They're even gone before Easter.
[00:13:58] No, that's a shame that.
[00:13:59] Where have they all gone?
[00:14:00] I mean, you're here excuses about modern logistics and data and things like that.
[00:14:06] But my head, there are two possibilities for the location of the missing low priced out of season chocolate.
[00:14:14] Retail outlets.
[00:14:16] That's a third option.
[00:14:18] My first option was they're keeping it for next year.
[00:14:21] Yeah.
[00:14:22] You know, just the trick that I would be to look at the best before days and if you see it scored out a new one sharpied on.
[00:14:27] Yeah.
[00:14:28] That would be too obvious though, wouldn't it?
[00:14:29] If you literally pick the egg up.
[00:14:31] I've seen.
[00:14:32] A big couple of in your hand.
[00:14:34] Well, if your chocolate looks like it's going great, generally it's a bit old and it's going to be like,
[00:14:38] well, so it'd be too obvious if they did that.
[00:14:40] The second option is that there's an egg thing somewhere with a garage full of bargaining stir eggs to pick out on.
[00:14:46] Mmm.
[00:14:47] I may or may not be that bad.
[00:14:53] You know when you hear the phrase,
[00:14:54] Scientist Sea, what comes to mind?
[00:14:57] Something scientific like the ingredients in a anti-aging cream or a shampoo.
[00:15:03] Some are like that.
[00:15:04] So you're saying usually followed by something you're like,
[00:15:07] is that really what Scientist said?
[00:15:09] Eight out of ten scientists said the cast preferred it.
[00:15:12] Yeah, well I would be scientist Coo, what their cast said.
[00:15:15] That's what I'm worried about there.
[00:15:17] However, I have been on the internet recently and scientists say honey bees become blank when she configurously for 60 seconds.
[00:15:27] Become blank.
[00:15:28] What do you think blank could be?
[00:15:30] You know like the games you'll blank in the blank.
[00:15:32] What do you think blank could be?
[00:15:34] I can't say dead then if it's only for 60 seconds.
[00:15:37] Did they pass out? Did they faint?
[00:15:39] They don't pass out, they don't faint.
[00:15:41] Lose their bee, can't fly.
[00:15:43] Lose their buzzes and too far off, they become pessimistic.
[00:15:47] Can?
[00:15:48] I don't know about you but if I was chicken by a giant,
[00:15:51] I'd be slightly more than pessimistic.
[00:15:55] But as I've got me wondering what is the daftest thing you think we could get research money for?
[00:16:00] I mean that's my real project of trying to hack your wife or your telly but that's not daft enough.
[00:16:05] That's why I'll be putting in a bit to see how many pigeons I need to bribe into lifting me and obtaining the power to flight.
[00:16:17] I'm talking coffee shops again.
[00:16:19] Any particular reason?
[00:16:21] Because I was excited because my friend Cheryl.
[00:16:23] Cheryl Warner always listens to us on a wee natter.
[00:16:27] Always keys me up today on what offers costas got going on.
[00:16:31] Always she never lets me down.
[00:16:33] You're addicted to disc golfershop and it says like Cheryl is as well.
[00:16:37] That's quite a popular one.
[00:16:38] Yeah.
[00:16:39] Following that so far?
[00:16:40] She gets me this message the other day and it was cake for a pound at costa on Friday.
[00:16:45] I thought I'm in there.
[00:16:47] I've got a little bit of high for Cheryl because she's literally at work from 4 in the morning till about 4 at night
[00:16:51] and by the time she gets to costa there's no lemon drizzle left for her.
[00:16:54] I do feel really sorry for Cheryl.
[00:16:56] So I get it in there.
[00:16:57] I get it in there quite early.
[00:16:59] I thought I'm having my...
[00:17:00] Wow, I brought a cable bought it for you didn't I?
[00:17:02] Yeah.
[00:17:03] So I guess it gets me coffee, gets me cake in a takeaway bag
[00:17:06] and I thought I'll have a bit of fun.
[00:17:07] And either the people...
[00:17:10] I don't know if you've had it, I hope it had it happen to you but either people can't take a joke or they don't actually know you joking.
[00:17:16] So the cake counter, it was only in the morning so it had all the cakes that you could choose from.
[00:17:22] It's fully stocked.
[00:17:23] I sent you a quick picture of the entrances which cake do you want?
[00:17:26] Very helpful mark says get me anything and I thought right okay.
[00:17:29] So anyway, gets me cake but I thought I'm having a bit of fun here.
[00:17:33] So I asked to this...
[00:17:35] I asked to the woman and I said she'd want to cake with your coffee a pound today.
[00:17:39] I said I'll take the lot.
[00:17:40] And she went what?
[00:17:41] I said I'll take the lot of them.
[00:17:42] I said she'd deliver.
[00:17:43] And this woman in the back of the queue, she said to me very worried look on her face.
[00:17:47] She said to me,
[00:17:48] I only wanted a rocky road.
[00:17:50] Oh it's like a joking lump.
[00:17:52] She's like well serious on her face.
[00:17:54] What could it talk the lot?
[00:17:56] Well if she has been at Gregg's...
[00:17:59] There is always somebody that's buying for the entire building site in front of you
[00:18:04] and you will see everything you thought I would quite like when it was disappear right in front of your eyes.
[00:18:09] It's not impossible.
[00:18:10] That's a lot breaking with somebody as the last thing and then the person in front of you
[00:18:15] that happened yesterday didn't it?
[00:18:17] Somebody had the last conflict key in front of you
[00:18:20] and I was spat-walled at it and he had the last one
[00:18:22] and he made a point to saying it was the last one as well
[00:18:24] and I'll have that and I was like typical.
[00:18:26] But people are like that.
[00:18:28] But yeah, she...
[00:18:29] I don't know if she could take a cake but a little face is well worried.
[00:18:33] She said I only wanted a rocky road.
[00:18:35] I should have said don't worry about everything in the counter but minus a rocky road.
[00:18:42] Have you heard of chat GPT?
[00:18:46] No, about the word of grand GPT.
[00:18:48] No I haven't actually.
[00:18:49] I'll say that if I've thought it was absolutely nothing to do with it.
[00:18:52] Chat GPT is an AI you can ask questions or provide prompts to an ill-righted response.
[00:18:58] So it's currently doing about 98% of school and university essays.
[00:19:03] Does any of this AI stuff you hear about in the news?
[00:19:07] Scare you at all.
[00:19:08] You see some of these robots that they make don't you and they're quite intelligence
[00:19:12] seem to know everything about you.
[00:19:14] I think that could be a little bit...
[00:19:16] They look scary actually, I want one of them just weirding itself into the room even if it's saying
[00:19:20] Hi, my name is Savannah.
[00:19:22] Would you like a cup of tea?
[00:19:23] I was like that would freak me right out.
[00:19:26] Would it not you?
[00:19:27] Even though yes I would like a cup of tea Savannah.
[00:19:30] I don't think I would like a robot coming in they just look freaky.
[00:19:33] So you don't want the 1960 style robot bustler?
[00:19:36] No, that would freak me out.
[00:19:38] I mean they could have a malfunction content and then start poisoning you.
[00:19:43] That's quite specific.
[00:19:45] I don't know.
[00:19:46] I don't like it.
[00:19:47] But yeah a lot of people win the worry about AI stuff it's lots of jobs which is
[00:19:51] J-U and worry especially as you know it's across the spectrum it's not just manual work
[00:19:57] there will also be a lot of thinking work that AI will be taking over.
[00:20:01] Making decisions that are biased and not always explained like there's an AI that
[00:20:05] had to talk to loop for cancer in images.
[00:20:07] So they showed it, here's pictures for cancer he's pictures where it can't say.
[00:20:10] Turns out he was detecting the ruler in the images cancer images tended to have a ruler next
[00:20:15] and to shoot her big detour.
[00:20:17] Yeah.
[00:20:18] See that's scary isn't it?
[00:20:21] Yeah, AI isn't always the brightest is it?
[00:20:23] No.
[00:20:24] Back to specific AI and chat GPT, a chat we used it.
[00:20:28] What do you think you used it for?
[00:20:29] He's got this AI that can write any prompt.
[00:20:33] Not to do what could we use it for we not to know maybe not.
[00:20:38] To make an excuse to his boss why I can't come into work today.
[00:20:42] That's actually not a bad idea.
[00:20:44] Have a look at it.
[00:20:45] I'll show it see what happens.
[00:20:46] No he used it to name his kid.
[00:20:48] Oh.
[00:20:49] I haven't even revealed the name but how would you feel about a computer algorithm naming
[00:20:53] a kid?
[00:20:54] Like being interesting whether or not they have it or not.
[00:20:57] I don't know but being interested to hear.
[00:20:59] So, been in mind that this was in Hong Kong so it's not going to come out with British names
[00:21:05] but it did come out with few ideas and it's not going to come out of Dave Barbara
[00:21:09] but it did come out with few ideas.
[00:21:10] It came up with Ziu which means wise universe.
[00:21:13] May thing which means beautiful mountains or mingly which means understands things.
[00:21:19] Which does it sound too bad?
[00:21:21] No.
[00:21:22] So I got chat GPT to name this show.
[00:21:25] So I thought really what we've got this podcast here.
[00:21:28] I showed it our description that we put in there we talked about what the show does and all that.
[00:21:33] And I said give us some titles for this podcast and here's the titles that came up with all 10 suggestions.
[00:21:39] The Steel Breakfast.
[00:21:41] Breakfast.
[00:21:42] I don't know where it's going breakfast from but there we go.
[00:21:45] Jenny and Mark in the morning.
[00:21:48] There's a theme here isn't there?
[00:21:49] Pookie and wife here breakfast, heart radio.
[00:21:53] That's what it sounds like to me.
[00:21:55] Light hearted matters.
[00:21:57] Yeah I'm liking these so far.
[00:21:59] The Daily Steel.
[00:22:01] That's good.
[00:22:02] We'd have to do it every single day though.
[00:22:04] I don't think I could be bothered without my live.
[00:22:07] No, no I don't like your deal listener but I think even you would get sick of this every single day.
[00:22:12] Insignificant issues.
[00:22:15] I don't like before it was being insignificant.
[00:22:18] Unimportant conversation.
[00:22:20] Why is it an important radio?
[00:22:22] One of the costs it wasn't unimportant and I was letting everybody know you can get cake for a pound on Fridays.
[00:22:28] The Steel Show.
[00:22:30] It's great, I want to say something like this.
[00:22:32] So yeah but not daily here.
[00:22:34] Jenny and Mark's chip chat.
[00:22:36] I want you to say Jenny and Mark's chip shop.
[00:22:38] That would be the only chip shop in the country that has more wastage.
[00:22:43] It actually sells them fruit.
[00:22:46] They're not so important podcast.
[00:22:49] No, that sounds like we're not worth listening to.
[00:22:53] To be honest.
[00:22:55] And the final one.
[00:22:57] Spider song and snapshots.
[00:22:59] What the hell where did it get that from?
[00:23:01] Why is it got a word spider?
[00:23:03] I'm going to start looking around the room now thinking I'm seeing one.
[00:23:07] So how do that list which one do you want to go for?
[00:23:09] Well it won't be number 10 that's for sure.
[00:23:13] Having worked in radio studios in the past as well as me Mark.
[00:23:19] Why do the chairs in the studio not have any wheels?
[00:23:26] What came into my mind was if they had wheels, would it be because their thoughts I would just glide past them I can miss my link?
[00:23:34] I don't even know where you're coming from here.
[00:23:37] They don't have wheels, the chairs.
[00:23:39] You know like the officey chairs.
[00:23:41] They don't have wheels on them.
[00:23:43] So you can't move your chair around.
[00:23:45] I worked in radio studios a bit late a long time ago now,
[00:23:49] but we did have office wheelie chairs.
[00:23:51] What happened there?
[00:23:52] I think this was hospital radio that I was talking about.
[00:23:55] I don't think the chairs didn't have any wheels on them.
[00:23:57] And one of the community stations who worked on there were no wheels on the chair.
[00:24:01] That's not all when you're trying to shove the other hand to get something.
[00:24:04] That was literally because they had a budget of £3.50 in the packet disco.
[00:24:08] You're reminding me of a my student days.
[00:24:11] There was a room that we used to borrow to do the student radio stuff and whatnot.
[00:24:16] And it was what I remember previously used as a kiln.
[00:24:19] So it was a tiles floor.
[00:24:21] And the only chairs we had access to were those ones you used to get in school.
[00:24:26] And you were all imagining the same thing.
[00:24:28] There are tiny ones.
[00:24:29] Not the little tiny ones.
[00:24:31] They were all upsized.
[00:24:33] But they were plastic with the metal legs.
[00:24:38] Metal legs, yes.
[00:24:40] So every time you moved it was with a lot of reverb because it was in this tile room.
[00:24:45] So it was like,
[00:24:48] that's genuinely how you used to go down.
[00:24:51] I'm not making it up.
[00:24:52] I just thought it was because they didn't do it front.
[00:24:54] Now I would like pass the mic and miss milling that all.
[00:24:56] It's entirely possible.
[00:24:59] Although can you imagine if that's what we did to politicians?
[00:25:02] Oh.
[00:25:03] Yeah, it would be great excuse for them to never give an answer.
[00:25:07] It would always be sliding past on a wheelie.
[00:25:10] I'm imagining a brass-eye style figure where you're trying to do no.
[00:25:15] I am imagining something brass-eye style here where they're trying to interview a series politician.
[00:25:21] And the politicians is constantly wheeling back and forth and forth.
[00:25:25] Why do it all purpose? It sounds fun.
[00:25:28] As soon as I'm starting a mini-political career,
[00:25:32] that might have to be my gimmick.
[00:25:34] You're just constantly wheeling back and forth.
[00:25:36] Even if we're like getting interviewed in the middle of nowhere,
[00:25:39] like in a field, just trying to sludge around in the mud in a wheelie chair
[00:25:42] so they can't actually catch me and interview me.
[00:25:44] We have a smile on your face as you were doing it.
[00:25:46] Well yeah, if you...
[00:25:48] At the end of the day, if you're shouting at the top of your lungs,
[00:25:50] yeah, can he catch me or can he get it out of serve?
[00:25:53] You're going to have a bit of fun, right?
[00:25:55] Yes, you are.
[00:25:59] That was unfortunately we, Natter.
[00:26:01] I was marked the on the cross-table from me was...
[00:26:03] Jenny Stale.
[00:26:04] And we're going to ask you to do one little thing, they'll listen.

[00:26:20] I try to think now, where else would you want to podcast?
[00:26:22] It's only interiors isn't it?
[00:26:23] Oh, well yeah.
[00:26:25] Yeah, you're not going to put it out on your dinner plate.
[00:26:27] It wouldn't fill you up with...
[00:26:29] Serve up a wee Natter.
[00:26:31] There you go.
[00:26:32] Oh, that's an option.
[00:26:33] Yeah.
[00:26:34] The other one is that in the run-up to the local election, especially if you're an English shirt,
[00:26:38] there may be camera-sourced chapening on your door going,
[00:26:41] would you kindly vote for us, blah, blah, blah.
[00:26:43] So what you need to do is go, uh, hold on a minute, I've got a message for you.
