Enjoy. Enjoy and remember, it's never

00:00:16
Hi, everyone. Welcome back to another episode

00:00:18
of Dear Miss Nick Thief. Yeah, I'm Soph and she's Jay.

00:00:22
She can't talk. I don't know why.

00:00:23
I just introduced stuff. Yeah, I'm, I'm just here.

00:00:27
I'm just here to see here. You, you take over.

00:00:31
We. Had a morning.

00:00:32
We had such a morning. She's in a grump and you know,

00:00:35
and I think I'm, I've just peeved her off again.

00:00:37
I've I've been so good through this pregnancy and I haven't had

00:00:41
like the pregnancy rage. I think it's just come in today.

00:00:45
Everything. We've had so many tech issues.

00:00:49
Everything's gone wrong. The lights are hot.

00:00:51
We've had. She's wearing.

00:00:52
Wool. I'm wearing wool the most humid

00:00:54
day. But I can't take it off now I've

00:00:55
committed. It's too wet to take it off.

00:00:58
It's too. Wet It's getting heavier and

00:01:00
heavier I. Can't take off the wall so we're

00:01:02
committing to the wool jalay quick and then just go for it.

00:01:07
The doorbell keeps going from the bloody voting parties.

00:01:11
Oh, Reform came to the job. I don't care.

00:01:14
I don't just let me leave me alone.

00:01:16
Yeah, no, they don't talk. I'm going to leave, Yeah, no, if

00:01:20
they want, if one more voter looks on my door.

00:01:23
She will not be voting for. That I will not be voting for

00:01:25
you. Don't care who you are.

00:01:27
No slam it in their door. Yeah, I've never seen Jay this

00:01:33
flustered. It's quite terrifying, I put.

00:01:36
I put false eyelashes on. One of them is in my eyeball.

00:01:40
She's not. I'm not having a good day.

00:01:42
She's I just want the baby out. I just.

00:01:45
I just. I just want the podcast mics to

00:01:48
work. I just want my doorbell to be

00:01:49
left the fuck alone. It's too much to ask.

00:01:53
And your dog is quite over stimulating, isn't he?

00:01:55
He's in the garden. I've.

00:01:56
Got reactive dog we've had to lock outside because he can't

00:01:59
take it either and he setting me off.

00:02:02
But today I really want to do this episode because what we've

00:02:06
done is we've shouted out on the socials.

00:02:09
We've been asking for your guilty pleasures and I've gone

00:02:12
through we had over 1000 comments, replies of your guilty

00:02:15
pleasures and I really want to talk.

00:02:17
About many times, I said to Jay, we don't have to do this today.

00:02:20
And he's like, no, we don't. We are doing it.

00:02:23
We are making this work up. I was like, OK, I hope I have

00:02:27
this kind of determination when I give birth.

00:02:29
Oh God, yeah, you don't. Have to give birth today?

00:02:31
No, it's happening today. This is happening right now.

00:02:33
We're manifesting it 38 weeks, aren't we?

00:02:35
Yeah. Manifesting.

00:02:37
I'm like 3 weeks away from 38 weeks and yeah, she's getting

00:02:42
evicted. She's getting evicted with a hot

00:02:44
Curry and whatever. The of all the things.

00:02:46
All the other things that she needs to do.

00:02:48
But we've had a bit of a week this week.

00:02:49
It's been a funny week, actually.

00:02:51
Yeah, it's been a funny week. Do you?

00:02:53
Want to share? Do well, yeah.

00:02:54
So basically, Long story short, I've got the Mitchell brothers

00:03:00
in me. You need to be careful how you

00:03:04
word that. Explain what you mean.

00:03:07
You've not had the Mitchell brothers?

00:03:09
Inside of me, no, I haven't. But I was going to say,

00:03:12
unfortunately, no, fortunately I have not. 19 hours, 90 Are they

00:03:18
both still alive? I don't know Grant's doing

00:03:20
Grant. What's his real name?

00:03:22
Grant Mitchell. No, what's his actual?

00:03:23
Name Film Grant. I don't.

00:03:25
Know, I don't know. Anyway, Grant's doing docs still

00:03:28
in him, right? Yeah, Phil, I think he's still

00:03:31
in EastEnders if. American listeners are going to

00:03:33
be like who and the what? EastEnders is yeah, all, all of

00:03:37
all three of our American listeners.

00:03:40
It's a popular British soap. Everyone knows what EastEnders.

00:03:44
Know these two brothers with shaved heads?

00:03:46
Yeah, still, this isn't clarifying anything.

00:03:49
Basically, I've had a bit of a health scare, but for the last

00:03:51
five years, isn't it? I've been like back and forth.

00:03:53
If you're a gal with like a womb issue, a womb issues, you'll

00:03:56
know. And basically, I essentially

00:04:00
collapsed at the weekend in pain.

00:04:04
And then I had an emergency scan and yes, like Jake came with.

00:04:08
I came with her for the emergency scan.

00:04:09
I was like, let's check out your womb.

00:04:11
Oh, it was funny though, because like it's an internal one and

00:04:14
like I didn't know I like and I've had loads of these scans

00:04:17
and I still was like, oh wait, it's internal.

00:04:19
I was like, yeah, so internal. If you guys don't know, external

00:04:22
is when like in the movies when they do the ultrasound on your

00:04:25
belly, internal right up there. It's like having a root round.

00:04:29
It's a wand, and they put a. Condom.

00:04:31
A condom on it. And yeah.

00:04:33
They have a root round anyway, basically we are very close and

00:04:37
they have this big screen up on the wall so you can see

00:04:40
everything. And yeah, a good 10 centimeter,

00:04:44
a couple of 5cm bulkings have just kind of come to bulky.

00:04:47
Fibroids big. Old outside of the womb though,

00:04:50
so they're floating around smacking all sorts.

00:04:52
Yeah, they're causing a lot of havoc.

00:04:53
Causing a lot of havoc. And they're 10 centimeters, so

00:04:55
it sounds a bit of his head. They need to come out.

00:04:57
Surgically, yeah, that's going to be happening at some point.

00:05:01
But we've nicknamed them definitely the Mitchell brothers

00:05:05
because they are bulky, bold headed bolders.

00:05:07
They're. Big, They need to come out

00:05:10
anyway. OK right?

00:05:12
TMI might regret sharing that. Look, if that makes people go

00:05:15
and check their womb, I'll do it.

00:05:18
We're gonna open the diary to your guilty pleasures now

00:05:21
because I'm very excited about sharing.

00:05:22
She's literally like she's trying to hurry this up.

00:05:24
OK, so. I'm gonna get also.

00:05:27
We're doing this. Blocking your mind.

00:05:28
I'm blocking my mind, can't we? There we are, there we go.

00:05:33
We're doing this completely blind, Yes.

00:05:35
Wow. So you're blind.

00:05:36
Yeah. Each week we're taking a topic

00:05:38
that's gone out on our socials, on my Facebook page, on my

00:05:43
Instagram, Johanna's Instagram, on our podcast, Instagram

00:05:47
socials, all on the socials. And we're putting out a topic.

00:05:50
You guys are getting in touch and sharing your stories with

00:05:52
us, whether that's like on the comments section or you're Dming

00:05:55
them. And then, yeah, we take one each

00:05:58
week. So Jay's taken the one this week

00:06:00
and I haven't seen any of them. So you don't know what so I

00:06:04
don't? Know what you're going to say

00:06:05
and then vice versa. So this week you've got daily

00:06:08
gauges, which I'm excited about. OK, also, until we get

00:06:11
permission to shout out your name, I've left things nameless.

00:06:14
Just, you know, so we don't get. Sued, yeah, but if you want to

00:06:17
be. Just tell us, let us know if you

00:06:19
if you want to start your name I.

00:06:20
Feel like if you're sharing intimate details.

00:06:22
Then you guys can as well. Some of you do too, OK.

00:06:25
So this one will start off easy. This guilty pleasure is one that

00:06:28
I can associate with because I I do this as well.

00:06:31
And I like to stop the microwave.

00:06:33
Oh yeah. Well, let it down.

00:06:39
Start again, dear Mr. Nick Thief, I like to stop the

00:06:42
microphone. I like to stop the microwave

00:06:44
with two seconds left and pretend I'm diffusing a bomb.

00:06:49
What I do that as well. What you see the you see the

00:06:52
microwave like counting down like in the movies.

00:06:54
And you have to like stop the microwave before it goes beep

00:06:57
beep beep because then the bomb goes off.

00:07:00
Right. And then what?

00:07:03
And then you've saved the, the, the, the world from being

00:07:05
bombed. So I I've done that as well.

00:07:08
What if your rice isn't cooked? It will be because you're only

00:07:12
doing it with like 2 seconds left.

00:07:14
Don't mess with rice. But like I do that, I like to

00:07:17
stop the microwave before the beep and right like I've got

00:07:20
there. So but that's that feels like

00:07:22
then and that's it. And that, yeah.

00:07:24
That's just take your food out and crack up with your day.

00:07:26
I. Pretend I'm diffusing a bomb and

00:07:27
you know what? They're enjoying it.

00:07:28
It's called a guilty pleasure. It's things that you should,

00:07:31
that you enjoy, that you really kind of shouldn't enjoy it.

00:07:32
It's a bit weird. It is weird, but I'm saying I

00:07:35
felt. Like that was a bit of an anti

00:07:36
climax. I see you.

00:07:39
Now there was a lot of weird food things.

00:07:41
Oh, OK, I could get on board with.

00:07:43
That which was weird for me because I'm like all of them

00:07:45
very vomiting right now with pregnancy.

00:07:47
So this person, dear Miss Nick Thief, I enjoy golden syrup and

00:07:51
salad cream sandwiches. I get this.

00:07:55
What? No, not golden syrup.

00:07:56
I love a salad Cream sandwich, No.

00:07:58
No, no, but we're talking golden syrup and salad cream.

00:08:04
Nice love lettuce and salad cream.

00:08:05
That's really normal. That's not weird at all.

00:08:06
That's that's salad cream. What does salad cream go with?

00:08:09
Sof salad? So it goes with lettuce.

00:08:12
I'm so scared of her today. What does salad cream go with

00:08:16
SOF? Salad.

00:08:21
Lettuce salad. What do you?

00:08:23
Want sorry. For breathing, this was your

00:08:26
majesty into the chokey. I feel like this does salad

00:08:34
cream go away stuff? But some golden syrup.

00:08:38
No OK I've heard of. There was a girl back in my

00:08:40
primary school. She used to have sugar

00:08:41
sandwiches and syrup sandwiches. But salad, cream and syrup?

00:08:46
That's like having a salad. It's a salad cream.

00:08:47
I just we just tried that's weird sandwich from M&S.

00:08:52
Yeah, but that would be like if it had strawberries and salad.

00:08:55
Cream. So in context, for context,

00:08:59
Wimbledon's just finished and M&S bought out a strawberry and

00:09:04
cream sandwich. And the first bite bit weird.

00:09:08
Johanna tried to bite it and was like, absolutely not going to

00:09:11
bomb. Probably not the best time for

00:09:13
you to try something like that, but I thought it kind of worked.

00:09:16
So no, no, it doesn't work. I'm trying.

00:09:19
I'm trying to find logic. I think it's disgusting and

00:09:22
gross and I judge you whoever said my do.

00:09:24
You know what I like? What the different different

00:09:30
textures in my mouth? Oh, hello.

00:09:33
No. No, no.

00:09:34
So like a Malteser? Yeah, and a grip at the same

00:09:37
time. Oh, but that would be slushy and

00:09:39
wet and crunchy. Yeah, but it's like cold and

00:09:43
crisp. Yeah.

00:09:45
And then just chocolatey and honeycutt like, I don't know, I

00:09:47
love different textures or OK, porridge oats with like crunchy

00:09:51
cereal. Well, yeah, you're just I, I

00:09:56
think that's, yeah, no, I'm trying to find logic in it.

00:09:59
That's that's fucking weird. OK, another guilty pleasure dear

00:10:06
Miss Nick Thief. I love correcting spelling.

00:10:10
I enjoy doing it at the time so if someone might misspell

00:10:13
something but I hate myself immediately afterwards.

00:10:16
A bit like wanking over an ex bird.

00:10:21
Bird being ex-girlfriend. Yeah, not like a eagle like.

00:10:24
Someone's wanking over an actual.

00:10:27
I love a Sparrow. Yeah, so great pigeon On my way

00:10:32
back from work bald. Eagle, I get the American bald.

00:10:36
Eagle, I mean, yeah. If you're going to have a bird

00:10:39
kink, it would be that. Pig wank.

00:10:41
Yeah. So they enjoy, they enjoy,

00:10:51
they're doing it. They enjoy doing what?

00:10:55
Scar correcting people's spelling.

00:10:56
Right. OK, guilty pleasure.

00:10:58
But they really enjoy. It yeah, that's like.

00:11:01
You've got a teacher kink or something in there.

00:11:03
Yeah, you're a bit of a wanker, like, but it also depends on how

00:11:08
you how you correct them. But if you're correcting them

00:11:11
and then you immediately hate yourself after, I'm going to say

00:11:14
that you're correcting them in quite a patronising way.

00:11:19
Do you know what I mean? Your is why?

00:11:23
No, that does. No, that does piss me off.

00:11:25
There, there and there. Yeah.

00:11:27
Anybody that gets those wrong and yours, all the yours tell

00:11:34
you. It really peeved me off people

00:11:37
that say I love you all the world.

00:11:42
I love you. All the world or like, Oh my

00:11:44
God, I love you all the world. Like you know when people put

00:11:46
like happy birthday to my little girl who's 2 to Jane, so she

00:11:50
hasn't got Facebook or Instagram, but I get it.

00:11:51
It's fine. Love you all the world, mum.

00:11:54
I'm like that is grammatically really fucking bad.

00:11:58
Or like when somebody says like, oh.

00:12:00
In all the world. Yeah, all the love in the world

00:12:03
or I love you like, I don't know as much as the world.

00:12:07
I don't know like you, but all the world.

00:12:09
And it's like, no, there's another one that I really,

00:12:12
really pees me off when people use the word what instead of

00:12:15
that? So like, like that could have

00:12:19
been or like that what? Like people use the word what

00:12:23
wrong? Like I'm, I can't think of an

00:12:25
example. So like, Oh yeah, like that man.

00:12:28
What was at the park? He was what was there.

00:12:31
Yeah, that man, what was at the park and I'm like, sorry, the

00:12:34
man that was at the park, not what was at the park.

00:12:37
Like just grammar really peeves me off and it's not a guilty

00:12:41
pleasure. Like it.

00:12:43
It like angers me to the point. Did you write that one in?

00:12:46
Potentially. Might have been Sophia.

00:12:49
However, I don't wank over sparrows, so that's not me.

00:12:53
An imposter guilty pleasure though?

00:12:55
Yeah, I get that that is a bit of a guilty pleasure, but only

00:12:58
if they correct it, because I would still be really peeved

00:13:01
off. OK, we're going to get a bit

00:13:02
more gross now, so don't listen if thief.

00:13:04
I love extracting in grown hairs.

00:13:07
Love that, love that. When it's really long and curly.

00:13:12
Love that or when you like you, you squeeze it and it like comes

00:13:16
out like a. Worm.

00:13:17
Yeah, like all that white stuff, or like when the tip of it's a

00:13:19
little bit black. So it's been there a little

00:13:21
while, it's a little bit dried and it comes out.

00:13:24
Oh my God, do you remember that one I got on your back?

00:13:26
Which one? Yes, and you were like, I've had

00:13:29
this lump. She was like.

00:13:31
For 9. Years she was like, I've had

00:13:32
this lump on my back for age and I tried to get my boyfriend to

00:13:35
look at it and like he can't say anything.

00:13:38
It's just a lump. And I was like, so I looked at

00:13:40
it and I was like, Jay, there's like a tiny little head on it

00:13:43
and she was like, it's there. And I was like, let me just try

00:13:44
and squeeze it. Best day of my life.

00:13:47
That was big. It was the best we were in in

00:13:49
your living room right here. Like every time I squeeze it,

00:13:52
we're like, because it just more and more kept coming, but it was

00:13:56
like full on like spiraling out honest.

00:14:00
That felt sexier. That was like the Hunchback of

00:14:04
knocks. With my 9 foot hair coming out

00:14:08
of my back. No, it wasn't a hair.

00:14:09
It was just pure beautiful mush mush.

00:14:13
It was Piesto resistance. I remember that now I.

00:14:16
Filmed it. I felt like cleansed.

00:14:19
I felt baptized. Yeah, I felt about she was about

00:14:21
forced on lighter. It was big.

00:14:26
I felt like doctor. Pimple popper.

00:14:28
God, it was you and not the boyfriend.

00:14:30
Because I might. Well, he looked.

00:14:31
He didn't look at it with the eyes that I I was like no, no,

00:14:35
no, no, I know what this is. Equally, I agree with the next

00:14:39
one. Dear Mr. Nick Thief, I like

00:14:41
watching earwax extraction videos.

00:14:46
I don't watch them. I do.

00:14:49
TikTok my ears are a funny shit. Oh yes, they are.

00:14:52
Yeah, so I have to have that done quite often.

00:14:54
I'm giving far too much information.

00:14:57
Medical. Information today.

00:14:58
Like I've got the Mitchell brothers, I've got waxy ears.

00:15:00
Like no so. No, but your ears are slanted.

00:15:03
They're like, so like down. Yeah, your ear canals slow up,

00:15:07
right? But mine have a little.

00:15:08
You impress the ear doctors every time and they're like.

00:15:11
Time, well, they're like that is equivalent of a man that works

00:15:15
on a building site. Glen must get a lot of debris.

00:15:19
Yeah, and every so often you get, every few years I get deaf,

00:15:23
you get a bit deaf and then you go to the thing.

00:15:26
And then they. Pull it out and then you're

00:15:27
like, wow. Yeah, The last time that

00:15:29
happened was because I was going really dizzy and I went and the

00:15:32
guy was like, I have, I've not seen anything like this for a

00:15:35
very, very long time. And then you have to give you

00:15:38
drops, then you have to go back. And then, yeah.

00:15:40
And I always take a picture of it and send you.

00:15:42
Yeah, compacted. Little balls of it, because I

00:15:46
know you. Enjoy it I see, but do.

00:15:47
You remember that time I had to root inside your ear when you

00:15:49
lost your? Yeah, I always get my hearing

00:15:53
aid domes, little plastic things on the end of the hearing aid.

00:15:56
They get stuck sometimes in my ear and then they when they go

00:16:00
right in and it's really scary because you think that's it,

00:16:02
it's gone. Forever gone forever.

00:16:03
Yeah, you've pulled one or two out.

00:16:06
The ear doctor, when they were cleaning my ears, pulled one

00:16:09
out. They've been in there for

00:16:10
months. I didn't know if these are the

00:16:12
adult things. You're not told that you need to

00:16:13
get your ears cleaned. Like, yeah, you don't get told

00:16:15
this. I remember you came around to my

00:16:17
flat once and you were like, I need to pull it out.

00:16:19
And I got the tiniest tweezers and I pulled it out.

00:16:22
And then there was that time you had that little camera and I was

00:16:25
rooting inside your ear for ages.

00:16:27
And it wasn't anything in there, but we thought, but because I

00:16:30
could see your eardrum, couldn't I?

00:16:31
We didn't know if that was the dorm or not.

00:16:33
Yeah. Because I've got a prosthetic.

00:16:36
Hearing bones. Yes, in my eardrum.

00:16:38
Oh my. God, yeah.

00:16:38
And then you went because you thought.

00:16:39
I thought is that because it was a bit of the?

00:16:41
Yeah, so I bought an ear camera. Which looked like a tumor.

00:16:44
And yeah, and I put an ear camera in, which is a good and

00:16:46
bad thing because it's good because you can see in your ear.

00:16:48
It's bad because you don't know what you're looking at.

00:16:50
And so I saw, and I didn't realise that you can see my

00:16:53
prosthetic hearing bones through my eardrum.

00:16:55
So I was like, what is that? Yeah, off to A&E thinking I had

00:16:58
a tumor. Because that was what you'd had

00:17:01
before. Yeah.

00:17:01
And then the ENT doctors were like, no, that's your prosthetic

00:17:05
hearing bones. But that's why they're bright

00:17:07
white. That's why you can see them.

00:17:10
All the medical information. Is very medical episode OK

00:17:14
Dimmersnik thief. It's a pretty harmless one, but

00:17:18
I love changing into a fresh pair of socks.

00:17:21
I've even taken 3 or 4 extra pair of socks to work and I

00:17:25
changed them every few hours. My feet feel so nice.

00:17:29
So nice So. Nice.

00:17:32
I mean, you do you, babe. Where do you?

00:17:34
What do you do with The Dirty socks?

00:17:35
Do you have a little bag of like laundry at work?

00:17:38
That's a lot of laundry. That's a lot of socks to wash

00:17:41
you're. Brave as well, taking your socks

00:17:42
off. Well, they're not.

00:17:44
Their feet aren't going to smell, put it that way.

00:17:45
It will smell less, yeah. She'll tell you what my little

00:17:47
guilty pressure is. Well, sometimes I'll wear the

00:17:49
same socks two days in a row. Why?

00:17:54
I don't know. I could understand if you never

00:17:56
took them off because then it's then you're stretching the time.

00:17:59
But yeah, but if you like actively took them off and then

00:18:02
actively. Yeah, no, like I just took take

00:18:04
them off and put them on the floor sometimes.

00:18:06
Then in the morning I'll just be like, because I don't like being

00:18:08
barefoot, right? So if they're just on the floor

00:18:11
I'll just pop the socks on in the morning to like walk

00:18:14
upstairs if my slippers aren't about and then they just end up

00:18:17
staying on for the next day. Very peasant behaviour, Sophie.

00:18:20
Yeah, I'll buy you some more socks.

00:18:23
No, I have loads of socks but every time I wash a sock like my

00:18:26
socks I always lose 1. Oh yeah, so that she must be

00:18:29
missing or he might be missing a lot of socks.

00:18:32
Okay. Right, so then I thought I would

00:18:36
add my own guilty pleasures in okay, because.

00:18:40
I hope they're gross like my suck 1 so.

00:18:43
My guilty pleasures? I love dipping McDonald's fries

00:18:47
in McDonald's Mcflurry. Heard this million times and the

00:18:51
milkshakes as well. I don't like milkshake but but

00:18:54
it has very specifically has to be the McDonald's fries and it

00:18:57
doesn't work with Burger King fries.

00:18:58
It has to be McDonald's. Fries.

00:19:00
This is salt and the sweet. McDonald's Mcflurry.

00:19:03
I've heard this a lot. Don't knock it till you try it,

00:19:06
no. Elite.

00:19:07
And I used to work at McDonald's, so you'd be

00:19:11
surprised how many people ordered fries in a Mcflurry.

00:19:13
Yeah, and they would sit in the restaurant.

00:19:15
It's my order when I went. Did I work at McDonald's?

00:19:17
I was like 16 at the time, Yeah. And they would sit and they

00:19:21
would dip the fries in the Mcflurry.

00:19:23
It's really common. And.

00:19:25
But the milkshakes is another one and.

00:19:26
It only works. Strawberry milkshakes a bit

00:19:28
unhinged. No, it has to be the.

00:19:30
It's the So I get a Smarty Mcflurry and I eat the Smarties

00:19:33
out of it. Then I dip my fries in it and it

00:19:37
works. Another thing that I do dipping

00:19:40
is I dip ginger nut biscuits in hot Peach squash and again it

00:19:43
doesn't work with orange or it has to be Peach and has to be

00:19:47
ginger nut biscuits. A dunk So Johanna is a child

00:19:54
doesn't like tea or coffee. So she'll have a hot squash.

00:19:58
If anybody is wondering what what she's referring to there

00:20:02
because she just like I like to dip ginger nut in my hot Peach.

00:20:04
People like what are you on about?

00:20:06
So my version of tea is. Hot squashes, hot cordial, and

00:20:11
yeah. Like a hot juice.

00:20:13
That's not too bad. There are definitely worse

00:20:16
guilty pleasures like I thought, like, yeah, I mean, is there,

00:20:20
are there more? What?

00:20:22
Get the pleasure? Yeah.

00:20:23
Oh, no. Food wise, that's kind of my

00:20:24
food thing. But I thought my guilty pleasure

00:20:27
movie that I love is The Time Machine.

00:20:31
I think it's from 2002 with Samantha Mumba.

00:20:34
Do you remember that movie? No, absolutely not.

00:20:37
But just Samantha Mumba, I remember, I didn't realise she

00:20:40
did films. It's the only time I think she.

00:20:42
Was in it and then and then. Never did it.

00:20:43
Never. Again, but I love that film, The

00:20:47
Time Machine with the Samantha Mama.

00:20:49
We need to watch that. Oh God, Oh my God, it's amazing.

00:20:53
Oh, is it though? I was having this conversation

00:20:55
the other day with somebody and they were like, so Johanna is a

00:21:00
film buff, like absolute film buff.

00:21:05
In every film, I think that there is ever that's ever been

00:21:07
made and there is this thing. So me and our friend Leanne,

00:21:11
like she often like Johanna like I've got this film, we're going

00:21:13
to watch it. And me and Leanne, we sat

00:21:15
watching it and we're just like, and I was like, watch one.

00:21:18
Yep, you're trying to get 2 highly AD ADD people.

00:21:21
But but what is funny is I think, and I was having this

00:21:26
conversation with someone, they're like, Oh yeah, when

00:21:27
people say that, like this film is amazing, but it's actually

00:21:29
not that amazing. It's then nostalgia linked to

00:21:31
it. That's like why they love it.

00:21:33
And it's like, and I was like, yes, I was like, maybe that's

00:21:36
what it is with Jay when she says, yeah, this film is amazing

00:21:39
and I'm watching it and I'm like, I really, I'm not.

00:21:42
I don't, I don't get it. But I think it's the nostalgia

00:21:45
that makes it amazing for you because you watch so many films,

00:21:48
so. It's also no because because I

00:21:50
have SO. The babysitter I cannot get on

00:21:52
board with. No, no, what is it?

00:21:54
Babysitter and parrot was. Adventures in babysitting?

00:21:56
No, go, don't, because it's also it's very important the way you

00:22:01
watch a film. So you have to be distracted.

00:22:03
Of course you're not going to get a film if you're half on

00:22:06
your phone because you're watching something through

00:22:07
second screening it. And if you second screen it,

00:22:10
it's not going to hit you because you're going to miss

00:22:11
things. And there's like an etiquette to

00:22:14
film, like talking in the cinema.

00:22:16
Actually, yeah, no. Cannot talk.

00:22:20
Yeah, I'm trying to go on my own.

00:22:22
There was someone that was like, but what do you think of like?

00:22:24
I went to the cinema of the day and there was 2 girls next to me

00:22:27
literally narrating the entire film.

00:22:30
There's an etiquette, everyone's paid to be there.

00:22:31
It's quiet, it's dark focus and you need to create that same

00:22:35
environment at home. It's a phones away dark.

00:22:38
I'm not in the extreme my my brother has to have all the

00:22:41
lights off and the door shut. Ohh.

00:22:42
Yeah. Exactly.

00:22:43
He can't do it unless the door shut and all that.

00:22:45
So I'm not that bad like you have you have a light on or

00:22:47
whatever, but but like the focus needs to be there and if

00:22:50
someones showing you the film, it's like someones coming and

00:22:53
like pebbling, you know like when the when the Penguin come

00:22:56
and they they wanna gift you their Pebble.

00:22:58
Your love language is sending memes and films.

00:23:00
Yeah, and so when they look sending you a Pebble, mean look

00:23:02
at this Pebble that I've like, think you're gonna like.

00:23:04
And so when when I try to show you Leanne movies and you just

00:23:07
chop my fucking Pebble away. You're.

00:23:11
Making us fit? No.

00:23:13
Not just moving away a Pebble. So no, I adventures in

00:23:18
babysitting. If you've seen it from when you

00:23:20
were a kid there. Yeah, there's a nostalgia.

00:23:22
To rewatch it as an adult and see whether or not.

00:23:25
It's decent, it still holds up like Never ending story.

00:23:28
I always thought that was a. Really good film.

00:23:31
Then when you watch it as an adult, you're like crazy.

00:23:33
This it like what in the what drugs were they on?

00:23:38
That is a crazy film. Neverending Story.

00:23:40
So yeah, The Time Machine, Samantha Mumba.

00:23:45
It's my getting pleasure film and and sin if I if you like

00:23:47
film, people are like but I love it Samantha.

00:23:51
Mumba. Right.

00:23:52
This is nothing I do. I deliberately listen to sad

00:23:55
music when I'm sad to make more sad so I can cry.

00:23:58
Rather than trying to like, uplift myself, I'll deliberately

00:24:03
emo songs on and and like, enjoy being sad.

00:24:07
Really sad, yeah. That's good.

00:24:08
That's quite therapeutic actually.

00:24:10
That's quite cathartic. I think that's allowing you to

00:24:13
feel your feel because you otherwise you're suppressing

00:24:15
but. I'm just.

00:24:16
You said now you go, girl, you've got.

00:24:18
And it was you that actually taught me how good crying is.

00:24:21
Crying is so good. You feel so afterwards.

00:24:22
You know when you had a good cry and then you finished stopping

00:24:24
and you go? I'm back.

00:24:33
I like, see, that's where I enjoy film.

00:24:35
Like I can if I put on it. I mean, I enjoy film, of course

00:24:38
I enjoy film, but like, if I'm feeling a bit like, I'd rather

00:24:44
put on a sad film than a happy film.

00:24:47
Time Machine Sad. With Samantha Mumbai just crying

00:24:51
her. Acting.

00:24:53
She's really sad. It's about a man in the

00:24:55
Victorian times. She might be really good.

00:24:56
Sorry Samantha, Monthly she do. What?

00:24:59
She's good. I'm sure she actually is.

00:25:01
To be fair, she's a performer. Isn't it time machine could have

00:25:03
got to give the synopsis. Now it's a man, a Victorian man.

00:25:07
He's an inventor and he's like a professor scientist and he's in

00:25:10
love with this woman. And he the day that the night

00:25:14
that he proposes to her, she gets killed and he then gets

00:25:19
obsessed with building a time machine so you can try and go

00:25:22
back and save her life. And he does it and he builds a

00:25:24
time machine and he goes back and he and he realises that he

00:25:27
could, he could save her life 1000 different ways and she was

00:25:31
always going to die. And so he's his question is, why

00:25:35
can't you change the past? And then something happens and

00:25:39
he ends up going a million years into the future by accident.

00:25:43
A million, a million years into the future, in a time when the

00:25:48
human race is split into two races, those above and those

00:25:52
below. Well, I doubt I'm happy.

00:25:57
Like, just like Down Abbey. So yeah.

00:26:02
Upstairs and downstairs and all that is in the Southerners.

00:26:06
And the humans and the Morlocks and and and it.

00:26:10
Yeah, it's it's I. Don't need to watch it now.

00:26:12
No, that's the. That's it.

00:26:14
That's the premise of the movie. And Samantha Mumba lives a

00:26:17
million years in the future. Of course she does of.

00:26:21
Course she does. OK, now here we go.

00:26:23
I love, I love people watching and judging people.

00:26:29
I love that. I love it.

00:26:30
I love it. I love sitting on the tube and I

00:26:33
watch everybody get on and I love observing them.

00:26:37
Who are they, what they're doing?

00:26:38
What vibe are they giving? What are they wearing?

00:26:40
Why did you choose to wear that that specifically love it and I

00:26:46
just sit there and I have my own little.

00:26:48
Narrative. I could I could miss my stop and

00:26:49
go for miles because I'm enjoying like.

00:26:52
Creating a story for everybody observing.

00:26:55
Yeah, not like, not like. Judging isn't like, but judging

00:26:58
isn't like like creating a. Oh, maybe no.

00:27:01
Sometimes I'm judging. Yeah, just like.

00:27:02
Oh, sometimes I am like, whoa, that tattoo like, and I love it.

00:27:08
It's a girly pleasure. And you're not supposed to

00:27:10
because you're supposed to be like everybody.

00:27:12
Everybody has their own vibrant style.

00:27:14
And you're like. No, Susan, those orthopedic

00:27:17
shoes do not look good. So do you remember when you met

00:27:19
me and I was wearing my mum's orthopedic sandals?

00:27:26
But I enjoyed that that was. I was being judged for my

00:27:30
rakers. They are diamantes.

00:27:38
Why was I wearing? Them I don't know and you've

00:27:41
never. The first time I met Soph, she

00:27:43
was wearing these orthopaedic sandals diamantes, and I

00:27:47
completely judged her. I was like, oh, she's a lovely

00:27:50
little chubby lady. She's a lovely little chubby, I

00:27:55
was. Like, she's a lovely little.

00:27:57
I was driving your van as well. Yeah, I was wearing my exes

00:28:03
bomber jacket as well, so I can I get that.

00:28:06
It was like a green. Yeah, I had big aviator glasses

00:28:09
on. Yeah, my hair wasn't like a

00:28:11
Croydon facelift ponytail. You were giving but like.

00:28:15
I just needed big hoops and a Chewy and I was there.

00:28:18
The Rickers, actually, not the Rickers.

00:28:20
The Rickers don't go with nothing.

00:28:22
Went it was a. Little denim skirt, these

00:28:25
Rickers. She's not into fashion.

00:28:27
But no, I really wasn't. And I thought I was.

00:28:31
And yeah, but I was also like, what, 22?

00:28:35
Yeah. And I wasn't really sure of who

00:28:37
I was either. Like I was you.

00:28:39
You know what Your your Yeah, your outfit didn't fit your

00:28:41
vibe. It was only when I sat down with

00:28:43
you and your personality came out and I was like, oh, there.

00:28:46
She is. I was so drunk in that Nando.

00:28:49
And you were really drunk as well, which was great but but

00:28:52
but just like if I just judging you on.

00:28:55
What you were wearing, judging I was.

00:28:57
It was just a guilty pleasure. It's my guilty pleasure.

00:28:59
I love it. OK.

00:29:02
And my final one is I love gossiping.

00:29:04
I do. Funny, fun story about

00:29:06
gossiping, like, So the reason I could be completely wrong here,

00:29:12
but I'm just going to go with it anyway.

00:29:13
I'm apparently like gossiping like, was a thing that women did

00:29:18
to save each other. Like back in the olden days.

00:29:21
Yeah. So like when women got together,

00:29:23
they were like sharing and sharing information that saved a

00:29:26
lot of women, right. And yeah.

00:29:28
So that the the connotations of gossip became negative because

00:29:32
of what it was doing for the males at the time and stuff as

00:29:37
well. So yeah, yeah, being a gossip

00:29:38
and a bitch and that and they were actually was saving people

00:29:41
at women's lives and stuff. It has an evolutionary purpose.

00:29:44
Yeah. And yeah.

00:29:45
And that there's a reason that, like, it's associated with women

00:29:48
so heavily and yeah, yeah. But like, but yeah, we should be

00:29:51
feared when we get together because we are powerful.

00:29:54
Also as well. From the dawn of time, they've

00:29:56
been scared of covens and witches, you know?

00:29:58
And there's a reason. But then it makes sense why I

00:30:01
like gossiping, and it makes sense why, say, everybody loves

00:30:04
it. Who?

00:30:05
Doesn't love a little Goss, everybody.

00:30:06
Loves a Goss especially, especially if it's some it's,

00:30:10
it's like sad or macabre information.

00:30:13
No, no, we love it. And there's a reason why there's

00:30:16
a word called shadenfruit, which is German, and it means pleasure

00:30:22
derived by someone. Sorry, pleasure derived from

00:30:28
another person's misfortune. And as humans we love it.

00:30:33
They and and as an example of. This Oh my God, did you hear

00:30:36
that? Sally's like, can't Sally's

00:30:38
having it? It's like she's been cheated on.

00:30:39
She's getting a divorce. For example, a couple weeks ago

00:30:42
the couple that got caught at the Coldplay concert.

00:30:44
She's right. Yes, it is.

00:30:45
It's. Gone down the world, but why is

00:30:47
nobody kept cheating as the most common thing ever?

00:30:49
It's kind of boring, but why? It's because people enjoyed

00:30:53
other people's misfortune. Do you know what?

00:30:56
Though like I have a bit of an issue with this.

00:30:58
Like I get that it was viral. It's funny.

00:31:02
Some of the memes I've seen are really, really funny.

00:31:04
But at the end of the day, like I, we both know how it feels to

00:31:08
like, have, you know, have a partner and not be, you know,

00:31:11
whatever. Oh, it's horrific.

00:31:12
But I feel because this has been so put, it was so public and it

00:31:20
was everywhere, I feel quite sad for the wife and for the

00:31:23
children. Do you know what I mean?

00:31:25
Like, yeah, it's funny. Yes.

00:31:26
It's just that and the other. And it's like, yeah, it's really

00:31:28
embarrassing for the people that were involved.

00:31:31
And yeah, you don't get to behave like that.

00:31:32
And also that apology that was put out, as some people said it

00:31:36
was. It was real.

00:31:37
Some people say it. Was if it was real apology?

00:31:38
Because if it was, it was. Bad.

00:31:39
It was like textbook narcissist. Yeah.

00:31:41
Yeah. Like blaming it on Coldplay and

00:31:43
like, what should have been a private thing.

00:31:45
I was sort of ridiculous. No.

00:31:47
Anyway, whether that was true or not, the victims of this really

00:31:51
are the wife and the children. And like, that must be really

00:31:55
exhausting to see. So like, yeah.

00:31:57
And so I get in gossip in that sense, I think is really like,

00:32:00
it's really good and it is a good pleasure, but it is sad

00:32:02
sometimes because the collateral of it is like people, the people

00:32:05
that don't. Yeah, Yeah.

00:32:06
But. That's the psychology why it

00:32:08
went so viral when people people love it because and it's exactly

00:32:12
that word the it's we do and it's why the.

00:32:17
Similar magazines, Newspaper. Gladiators the The Roman

00:32:20
Gladiator theatre, like Colosseum, works so well because

00:32:24
people love other people's misfortune watching other

00:32:28
people. It's why we like soaps.

00:32:29
It's why we like. Oh, we love a drama.

00:32:31
We love it. We love the drama.

00:32:32
But that special life is real, like reality.

00:32:34
TV and yeah, reality TV. Oh my God, yeah, Reality TV.

00:32:38
Yeah, the magazines, the, like, gossip columns, like it's always

00:32:41
been a thing from the dawn of time.

00:32:42
But initially, apparently it was it was it was there to sort of

00:32:46
save people's lives. Yes, I could be completely

00:32:48
wrong. That might have just been a meme

00:32:49
I read on the Internet and everything is in the.

00:32:51
Internet it's a visionary trait but also we shouldn't feel so

00:32:54
bad like if you do like gossiping, if you.

00:32:56
If you do. Derive pleasure from other

00:32:57
people's misfortune. It's very normal human

00:33:00
psychology stuff. So we're normal, you're normal.

00:33:02
There's Johanna's psychology lesson.

00:33:04
We have a psychology lesson once an episode.

00:33:06
It seems you're really you've missed your calling.

00:33:11
Guilty pleasures for me. Yeah.

00:33:12
What are your guilty pleasures? Food, movies, or like

00:33:16
activities, Things that you do that you shouldn't really enjoy

00:33:19
doing, but you do. This isn't my guilty pleasure

00:33:25
but I've heard this one a lot. Like what's it called where you

00:33:31
fart under the covers and then smell it.

00:33:33
You're set like Dutch oven yourself.

00:33:36
That's not my personal 10. I've heard that one before, no?

00:33:39
That's not fine. I was like, Sophie's going in

00:33:42
today. I mean, everybody likes this man

00:33:45
of their own farts. Yeah, well, I think you can

00:33:47
stand the smell of your own. But not other people, no.

00:33:49
Do you know? There's a psychology thing for

00:33:51
that as well. Yeah, I know.

00:33:52
Because you like your own. Because it's it's.

00:33:55
It's a horn brew. No, no, it's.

00:33:56
It's out. It's outside confirmation that

00:33:59
you're alive, that you're here. Well, yeah.

00:34:01
So in the weirdest way, you like your own smell of your own farts

00:34:05
because it's like an external validation that you're alive.

00:34:07
But. Yeah, no, that's not mine.

00:34:09
Just to clarify, you don't like Dutch I?

00:34:11
Don't like I don't Dutch oven myself.

00:34:13
I was thinking because I was I was trying to find time like my

00:34:17
guilty pleasure. You must like weird things.

00:34:19
I do. My guilty pleasure is.

00:34:28
Something's really bad and embarrassing.

00:34:29
Oh God. A fan that embarrassing, a fan

00:34:32
that you like that like nobody likes?

00:34:35
That's not cool. What's not cool that you love?

00:34:37
Lots of things. Well, that's your guilty

00:34:39
pleasure. Oh God.

00:34:44
Actually got things. Oh, I was thinking about this,

00:34:47
the reverse of a guilty pleasure of like things that are not

00:34:51
cool, that you love, are things that you want to like but that

00:34:55
you don't. Cheese.

00:34:58
There you are. I want to like cheese.

00:35:01
But you don't like. It, but I don't like it.

00:35:03
Fundamentally, I don't like it, but also it doesn't like me.

00:35:06
So that's fine. You both just we both to each

00:35:08
other. Both absolutely not.

00:35:10
I used to never be able to touch it.

00:35:11
Yeah, as a touch thing. Guilty pleasure.

00:35:14
Oh, come on, I've got, I've got one because definitely with spot

00:35:16
popping is like a big guilty pleasure for me.

00:35:18
Yeah. And I love looking at like

00:35:20
people's blackheads, like on their noses and stuff.

00:35:22
Like especially like like I would go up to a stranger on the

00:35:25
tube and be like, sorry, can I just get those?

00:35:28
Can I? Like if I, if I was allowed, I'd

00:35:29
be like, I'm really sorry. Can I just, there was a guy I

00:35:31
used to work with and he used to have the best massive blackheads

00:35:35
just around that little Ridge of nose there.

00:35:37
No. And I was like, let me at them.

00:35:40
Like, that's your guilt after then.

00:35:42
Yeah. I think squeezing people,

00:35:43
squeezing and getting stuff out, squeezing people's spots is a

00:35:47
guilty pleasure and great pleasures.

00:35:54
So my things that I want to like but I don't is Marmite because I

00:35:58
always thought it's cool if you like Marmite but I don't like

00:36:00
it. You're vegetarian now as well

00:36:02
anyway, right? And it's beef flavoured, isn't

00:36:04
it? Yeah.

00:36:05
Oh, OK. Well, Vegemite.

00:36:07
So don't like Marmite? Because Marmite.

00:36:09
And there's Vegemite. I don't like jazz.

00:36:11
I want to like jazz. Feel like jazz?

00:36:14
I like jazz. Like jazz, like, like I've been

00:36:17
to jazz clubs and people have taken me to jazz clubs and I've

00:36:19
literally sat there going this. I don't this sounds horrible.

00:36:23
I like a jazz Ronnie Scott's like, yeah, I like.

00:36:26
See, I want to be cool and like jazz because cool people like

00:36:29
jazz. But if I'm really honest.

00:36:30
To no, some people are like, do you like?

00:36:32
Jazz. I don't like jazz and I I want

00:36:34
to but it just sounds. I just I need order and the

00:36:37
music and melody and I like. Oh yeah, no, I don't like the

00:36:39
scap de Gupte. Yeah, that'd.

00:36:42
When people are just free doing the jazz, yeah, it's.

00:36:44
Free doing the jazz scab? No, that's what he's doing.

00:36:46
He's free doing the jazz. I can't like it coffee.

00:36:49
I would love to be a girlie that gets a coffee.

00:36:51
I've never been to Starbucks and ordered I.

00:36:54
Never used to have coffee until my divorce.

00:36:57
Well, no, I can't. So for the last couple of years

00:37:00
coffee and I love it and I'm a bit of a coffee snob now.

00:37:03
I can't stand the never. Used to be no full on coffee

00:37:05
snob, now it happens very very quickly.

00:37:08
But I can't. One minute you're crying having

00:37:10
an espresso because you've not slept for three years. 3 One

00:37:15
minute. Yeah, but you know, you're

00:37:15
crying because like you've not slept and you're like, but.

00:37:18
How do you get past the taste? Because I vomit, I can't the.

00:37:21
Taste milk, A lot of milk, a lot of honey.

00:37:24
No, like oat milk. I don't like milk, but oat milk,

00:37:27
honey, No. You wean yourself onto it.

00:37:29
And then now I'm like, I love a little coffee when I wake up in

00:37:32
the morning. Contemporary dance.

00:37:35
Love it. I want to love it.

00:37:37
Well, I was a contemporary. Dancer.

00:37:38
I want to love it and I want to appreciate it and I'm going to

00:37:40
piss off because I know people who contemporary dance, but

00:37:43
like, I can't. I don't.

00:37:45
No, I get that. I don't enjoy.

00:37:46
It, I used to love doing it, watching it, I'd be like, this

00:37:50
is weird. It's just.

00:37:51
It's weird like it because it's expressive and it's like telling

00:37:54
a story with your. Body improv.

00:37:55
Contemporary Dance. Opera can't.

00:37:57
No, I understand it. I love that.

00:38:00
You can do that with your voice. And after 10 minutes, I'm done.

00:38:03
Ballet, Same thing. I was a ballet dancer.

00:38:05
I was a dancer. Yeah.

00:38:06
Take me to The Nutcracker. No thanks.

00:38:09
Everything that you're really good at, you don't tend to enjoy

00:38:12
watching. What me or just in general?

00:38:15
Just, yeah, just you like, you don't like like movies and

00:38:19
crafts and things. You love acting and you love

00:38:21
storytelling. It's quite hard to get you to

00:38:23
focus on a. Yeah, but that's because I need

00:38:26
like the, IT needs to have like I need to have hoovered.

00:38:29
Yeah, so. Like the room needs to be just

00:38:33
so like I can't start work if the house is a mess like I I

00:38:37
have to have like. So I mean, if I so if I do my

00:38:40
house really well, you'll watch no, if I The Time Machine with

00:38:44
me. If I come to your house, it's

00:38:46
fine, but if you've noticed, it's my house when I struggle to

00:38:48
watch a film. That's true.

00:38:49
OK, so I'll. Be So just remove me from my

00:38:52
environment and put me in somebody else's.

00:38:54
It's fine if my house is clean and I've not got anything else

00:38:56
to do or to do lists or anything, I'm there.

00:38:58
OK. I think that's quite a common

00:38:59
thing. That's interesting.

00:39:01
So I'm not throwing your Pebble away, all right.

00:39:03
I'm just. I can't focus on your Pebble

00:39:05
when my house is dead. I just need to Hoover.

00:39:08
Other people's kids really want to like them.

00:39:12
I think that's my guilty pleasure.

00:39:14
What liking people not liking? No, yeah, not liking people's

00:39:17
children. Actually, specifically, no.

00:39:20
There's a few select few that I really, really, really like.

00:39:22
Like my nieces and like my best friend's kids.

00:39:27
Other than that, when it's the school holidays and the kids are

00:39:31
off. It's horrible.

00:39:35
So yeah, I just other people's kids apparently like your own.

00:39:38
Yeah, hopefully you're not your own.

00:39:40
No, you do like you do. My closest, dearest friends are

00:39:44
absolutely not having children, adore their own and still don't

00:39:48
like other people. And the final one that I really

00:39:50
want to like, but I just, it's not, I'm not built for it.

00:39:53
Staying up late. I'd love to be one of those

00:39:55
people that it's just like, oh, what?

00:39:56
It's it's 3:00 AM, doesn't matter.

00:39:58
I'll be up at 6 for work and it's fine.

00:40:00
I can't. I can't stay.

00:40:01
Up late if you are bad without sleep.

00:40:03
I'm bad without sleep. You get rashes.

00:40:06
I get my body breaks, I get like painful spots on my tongue, I

00:40:10
get rashes and eczema and I I can't, yeah, I'm really scared

00:40:13
about having a baby. Because I need a good job.

00:40:14
You've not got 1 coming in three.

00:40:15
Weeks isn't it? I know it's a good job.

00:40:17
I'm about to not sleep but I wish I could be someone that

00:40:20
stays up late and like works into the night and burns the

00:40:22
candle and I'm like no I'm a morning person.

00:40:25
Yeah, well, I like to be in bed by 10:00 PM My best, maybe

00:40:29
that's an age thing. My best, my work thing is like

00:40:33
in the morning. Yeah.

00:40:35
No, and I wish I was a night owl because night owl sounds so much

00:40:38
cooler than a morning. Yeah, like in the movies like.

00:40:41
You've got. Like working away and they're

00:40:43
taking Adderall and they're just like.

00:40:46
No, no, no. Or people who can just like, but

00:40:48
I've always, it's not an age thing because I was like 19 and

00:40:51
it'll be like midnight in the club and they'll be like,

00:40:52
where's Johanna? Oh, she's asleep under those

00:40:54
parcel coats. So like I'd just go find

00:40:57
somewhere cosy and I would just be asleep or I'd fall like, so

00:41:00
I'm not built for the night. I'm not a vampire.

00:41:03
One of my guilty pleasures and I hate it but love it at the same

00:41:07
time. Was like maybe not so much now.

00:41:10
When I was younger, it used to come out of the club and it used

00:41:13
to just be starting to get light and you could hear the birds.

00:41:16
Nope. And I used to feel like oh, this

00:41:17
is horrible. But also like yes.

00:41:20
Couldn't work out, people did it.

00:41:21
I was. I tried my hardest.

00:41:23
I'm not built for the night. I'd be struggling by one.

00:41:25
PMI really need to be in bed. Wherever I am one PM 1:00 AM by

00:41:28
1. AM by 1:00 PM.

00:41:30
That's currently now. I go to bed really early at 1:00

00:41:33
PM and then I got to an age where I realized that everybody

00:41:37
was on cocaine. And that's how everybody stayed

00:41:40
up until like, you'd be surprised at how many people

00:41:43
actually were that you thought weren't that were.

00:41:46
Not like my little group of girls though at uni.

00:41:52
People that I wasn't I. Was just like.

00:41:54
You were, but that's surprised. How many people?

00:41:57
Yeah, in London, in London. And I was like, in London, yeah,

00:42:00
yeah. I was like, oh, that's.

00:42:02
How you guys are just staying up all through the night and into

00:42:04
the early morning and being chill about and there's me going

00:42:06
so I can't do it, sugar. She's there with the Pepsi nuts.

00:42:14
Right, we could just keep chatting for about 5 hours, but

00:42:15
we should probably roll this up. We should roll this up.

00:42:18
Because I'm worried that this the whole time the mic's not

00:42:20
been on. Fantastic.

00:42:22
