Living With Madeley
"Living With Madeley" is a nostalgic TV based podcast that attempts to take a humorous look at some of the most weird, wonderful and woeful moments in UK television history.
Titled "Living With Madeley" as neither host can remember a week of their lives where Richard Madeley hasn't been on their screens, join Andrew and Liam as they take you on a journey to TV past.
Living With Madeley
Midweek Madeley - 15.03.25
Two podcast hosts with a passion for nostalgia share their excitement over receiving direct engagement from Right Said Fred members before diving into listener feedback from recent bonus episodes.
A standout discussion explores the urban legend of Andre the Giant consuming 108 beers in 55 minutes. We deconstruct how suspiciously specific numbers often make implausible stories seem more believable, comparing it to our own experience of struggling through a 100-shot beer challenge that proves just how unlikely the wrestler's supposed feat truly was.
Throughout the conversation, we revisit our "Dave Jones conspiracy" – a humorous exploration of a Sky Sports presenter who possesses such a generic, forgettable appearance that viewers struggle to recall his face moments after seeing him.
The episode concludes with a significant announcement: after careful consideration, the podcast will be rebranding from "Living With Madeley" to "Who Remembers?" This evolution will free us to explore a broader range of nostalgic topics spanning 1980-2010, including music, toys, television, and cultural phenomena that defined an era. Join us next week for a special farewell episode before we embark on this exciting new chapter!
Hello and welcome to the podcast Living With Maidly. This is our TV nostalgia based podcast at the moment and this is a midweek episode where we it's not actually midweek, we're recording at the end of the week, but the format is a midweek episode. I'm one of the hoists. Hoists. I'm one of the hoists.
Speaker 1:The hoists. Before we came on, we were both doing Scottish accents like messing around. I reckon that's around. I reckon, yeah, I don't hoist I'm me one of the hoists.
Speaker 2:I'm uh, I'm one of the hosts. I'm leroy, and andreas is the other host and he is with me. Live and lewd live and lewd.
Speaker 1:Got a bit of a belly ache, I think, if I genuinely think I might have had too many worthers originals um scoffing on today. Honestly, yeah, I've got like a full load of like packets anyone could eat more than sort of one or two words. I've had about ten. I've had about ten. I had a coffee.
Speaker 2:We had one piece of big news.
Speaker 1:We've now got two.
Speaker 2:I think that's three that you've eaten, ten where there's originally been.
Speaker 1:I genuinely feel a bit ill. I feel a bit tired and everything. We've got three bits of big news. That's what me and loads of others- we have three different versions. We'll save the big news. That's what me and Lads were original. Three different versions.
Speaker 2:We'll save the big news till the end, but we've got another bit of big news, haven't we? Yeah, we've had direct engagement with Right.
Speaker 1:Said Fred, but no one saw that coming no.
Speaker 2:I mean it's not as good as the Obviously. I had a heated phone call. It started heated and it ended all right with Go on, daz.
Speaker 1:Samson, how can you forget DAZ?
Speaker 2:yeah, but yeah, we commented on some right said Fred posts. You tagged me in something and I said great seller not as Maidler.
Speaker 1:Yeah, this is us individually.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and there was one that said which is your favourite, fairbrass? I, I think. And you sort of said to me, is this too hard to choose? And I said think for Richard, but it's close, both good guys. And yeah, fred Fairbrass has has responded Well, he's liked everything we've put. It's probably not big news to anyone else, but we were.
Speaker 1:Five years ago, this was, by the way. I've been deciding for five years whether he's going if they've just got bots liking things or something. Because about this was ages ago again on Facebook. They put they put like a picture of a guitar in a studio and I said, oh god, imagine what these guys are cooking up as a comment and I think it's like, and they like that about four years later as well.
Speaker 2:Yeah, just that much going on. It takes to tie. They've got heads in other things at the moment.
Speaker 1:Yeah, obviously yeah. What does he say?
Speaker 2:limit great covid denying set of lads but but now we, uh, we, we genuinely do like him, don't we like the music?
Speaker 1:so yeah, went to see paul eaton a couple of weeks ago jukebox before um and we we stuck a bit of a deeply dippy on there, didn't we?
Speaker 2:and everybody was singing along in the pub, weren't they like? Probably like rolled their eyes when it came on. But then we're quite by end.
Speaker 1:People were clapping. I see those legs, man, and all that sort of stuff.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so all good. So that's the first bit of news and this is an episode now where we're going to go through. Is it comments on the bonus episodes? Is that?
Speaker 1:comments on the bonus episodes and a few random things that we've been sent as well right, so I'm going to start the ball rolling.
Speaker 2:Uh, you, you've gone to the trouble of sending me these comments, um, so you, I'm reading them as we go. So this is live. I've hopefully I've seen them before, but some of them maybe not, because I'm not always on twitter. Uh, ryan and trey both tagged us in a comment about Hulk Hogan saying that Andre the Giant drank 108 beers in 55 minutes. Do you believe it? They're weirdly specific numbers, aren't they? Like you think you'd say he drank 100 beers in an hour.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but we know people who lie and they do do this, we've noticed it before. They'll say like yeah, they'll say something like honestly, I was there for 63 minutes, I was waiting for that train, all right, you think, man, he actually got it at the same time, I don't know. I think if you're gonna lie, you won't round it up. I think if you weren't lying you'd round it up, uh, okay I think you'd say, I drank 110 beers in an hour or over 100 beers in an hour in about an hour.
Speaker 2:Yeah me, that's. That's enough to say around about 100 beers in an hour, that's you, don't? You don't have to add the x-ray. That is impressive. 100 beers in an hour. It's all gonna imagine saying that drank 100 beers in an hour and someone just shrugging and then saying, oh no, I think it was 108 in 55 minutes.
Speaker 1:Oh, my god, you're kidding. My fucking god, have you heard this? 108? 108 beers. So you're a mathematician. You're more of a Vorderman than I am. How many is that? That's 108 beers in 55 minutes.
Speaker 2:So it's obviously it's roughly two a minute, isn't it? I mean, it's every 30 seconds cracking open a new, can I mean, were you there when we played?
Speaker 1:Yeah, I know what you're going to say 100 shots of beer. Yeah, this sounds easy. Every time I spoke to someone about this, this sounds easy. So what you have to do, you have to have 100 shots of beer every minute, like a shot every minute, not 100 shots a minute, I'd be mad. Every minute you have to have a shot of beer and it starts off, and it's easy. We were bladders by the end of it. We were proper hard. Did you win it? I backed out about 70 in. Yeah.
Speaker 2:Was Brendan sick in a wheelie bin Jay?
Speaker 1:was sick in a wheelie bin.
Speaker 2:Tom pulled the entire tent down, didn't he? Yeah, I had to skip one and do a double because I had to run up to the toilet, because I thought there's no way I can keep going so technically I failed, but I think I did do it.
Speaker 1:That's hard. What's?
Speaker 2:hard with. It is for one needing a toilet, for two, the gas build up. You just get so bloated and that's the bit I'm struggling to. I just think your tummy's full of that much liquid's probably not possible. But I mean, he was a ginormous man. He was literally a giant. Yeah.
Speaker 1:Andre the Giant? Yeah, but I don't believe it. I just think, if I don't know the million dollar man Ted.
Speaker 2:DiBiase I think it's one of these things that grows over time, and I've said this today and J so we once went to like some sort of wildlife place and our auntie was looking at I think they were ferrets and Jodie's dad sort of pinched her in the back and like sort of made a jump of panic, yeah, yeah, yeah, and she sort of stepped forward and bumped into some guy. Now that over the past sort of four years I heard it about a year ago and it was do you remember when Gang Gang pinched Antelayers and she ended up shoving that guy to the floor? Today Jodie was telling the story and it pinched her and she ended up kicking a guy in the backside. Why, why would that happen? I said I can't wait for this in two years where she jumped up and did a spinning back kick and kicked him in the head and knocks him out cold Chubb Leakes kick spinning right.
Speaker 2:She's a kid.
Speaker 1:Yeah, probably. Yeah, I'm good at this.
Speaker 2:I think he's probably drank a lot of beers in a short space of time and it's been hugely exaggerated. I mean, when I worked in Manchester on a building site and there were two vans, two different vans Our van used to come to snake pass and their van used to go to woodhead and it was well known that uh, frank and sean used to buy an 18 can crate of beer and drink it over the woodhead. So they would have like over sort of 25, 30 minutes. They would drink nine cans each that's ridiculous, ridiculous.
Speaker 1:How pissed were they.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I mean, they were both drinkers.
Speaker 1:Well, I did.
Speaker 2:No, no, not weird. I mean Sean. I once met Sean in a pub in town and in the space of me having one pint and I don't think I'm a slow drinker or a fast drinker, just medium, I think in the space of having one pint, brothers, the three of them, I think they had three or maybe four and it was just normal to him, they were just just down in it.
Speaker 1:So yeah, I believe you don't get enjoyment if you down it. Nurse you nurse it a little bit. You know what the wine do. Wine people do get a little. Uh, I'm doing the action but I can't what you call it. You're like a little shit, yeah, like a swill, especially if you've got an ipa, you go hmm, yeah, yeah, but anyway'm with you.
Speaker 2:I'll stick with you. Stick with you, carlin mate. Carlin Julian sent us a picture of a snake and said he was having another listen to the Steve Irwin special for Australia Day. Funny stuff. Laughed even harder second time round. See, that's it.
Speaker 1:Sometimes there's so much to go out. There's so many layers to these podcasts there.
Speaker 2:Look what I found in our poll last week Snack which is obviously taken from Webster's Mark Webster's fantastic snacks, they're all snacks, they're all snacks. Yeah, but it got stuck, found its way out from some cladding apparently. Ah, the cladding joke for Webding. Ah, yeah, yeah, some fucking cladding, fucking cladding. So yeah, cheers, julian. Next comment from Bobby B, and again it was on the Steve Irwin episode. Been scouring a map of South America and I've come to the conclusion.
Speaker 1:Panchero was trying to say Venezuela. I can't say it again Pennsylvania. Yeah but it's in Australia, innit. Well, that's not Pennsylvania.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but it's called Something like that Fucking hell.
Speaker 1:I can't remember. Now, hang on, let me just do some fucking Perth Er Erwin, steve Erwin, no, not Perth. Imagine I know I can't pronounce it. Imagine not being able to Pronounce Perth.
Speaker 2:So you pronounced Perth so badly, you thought it was Venezuela.
Speaker 1:Venezuela. No, I haven't got a minute. Give me two secs. You talk to yourself a bit while I try and Alright, so yeah thanks, bobby B.
Speaker 2:It sounds like Venezuela is not the place he was trying to think of.
Speaker 1:No, I'm struggling to think of P-E-N-I-N-S-U-L-A In Mexico.
Speaker 2:It's not in Australia, then is it?
Speaker 1:No, it's in Mexico. Penisula, peninsula, peninsula. Spell it again P-E-N-I-N-S-U-L-A. Peninsula, peninsula, yeah-a. A Peninsular, peninsular, yeah. I would say Penisula yeah, so not Venezuela. What are you?
Speaker 2:trying to think it out when was that relevant?
Speaker 1:It's when he rescued those two scuba divers. So is it Peninsula? Peninsula, that sounds more realistic, doesn't it?
Speaker 2:But Peninsula is not a place, it can be anywhere. Peninsula is like a type of it's where the land sticks out a bit.
Speaker 1:It says the documentary sea lines are the coast of Baja California Peninsula in Mexico, california, mexico. That's what it says. That's what it says I'm pressing it now and it is. It's in northwestern mexico and it separates the gulf of california with the pacific ocean.
Speaker 2:But peninsula is not a place peninsula.
Speaker 1:Yeah well, whatever I've misread it, all right, I've misread it.
Speaker 2:This is your geography episode um, so Webding commented. It's been flippant about the snake tale, but it was an incredible to hear anatomical facts on a podcast not usually known for its accuracy or indeed, information.
Speaker 1:Well, following up on what I've just said, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:We're full of facts, aren't we? We know all about snakes and peninsulas. Yeah, I think this was because I I don't even know if I made it up actually, so it might be completely wrong. I think I sort of suggested there would be some almost like a pelvis. There would still be some bone in there that decides where the tail exists.
Speaker 2:So thank you for that, mr Webster. Dead Bat is a partner in crime. I was listening on my own and thought hang on, are they both convinced? Eddie Murphy was in the Police Academy films. Michael Winslow played the character Lovell Jones. He was billed as the man of 10,000 sounds and he was in 60 films for making noises. So this is the sound effects guy which I never thought he was Eddie Murphy. I didn't know he was. Was your phone ringing? Yeah, well he. I never thought he was.
Speaker 1:I didn't know he was, yeah, was your phone ringing, yeah well he's here with me today. What's his name?
Speaker 2:Lavelle Jones, lavelle Jones yeah, no, he does like he can do it all, can't he like I?
Speaker 1:wonder if he's Dave Jones' cousin like he, just because he's like a robot as well.
Speaker 2:He just does, he does the voice yeah yeah, he starts. Yeah, there's no beat to it like him doing it Pete Jones, so Manchester United like. Although you're doing a sound effect to something that sounds like nothing. What is that supposed to?
Speaker 1:be, it could be an helicopter. Helicopter there. You go. Yeah.
Speaker 2:So you could do all the, all the air based things, can't you?
Speaker 1:what else you want, bow yeah or anyone.
Speaker 2:If anyone's got any more requests anyone wants any sort of form of transport recreating. Andrew's taking over from Larville Jones.
Speaker 1:Mike's hard actually.
Speaker 2:Yeah, when creating Andrew's taking over from Larvel Jones, mike's hard-hatched when we were sort of I don't know like nine or ten and used to run around doing shooting games and stuff. I remember everyone used to like that, but Furnace, that you know, used to go pishowm, pishowm. Pishowm, pishowm, pishowm used to go psham, psham, psham, psham, psham, which is actually like a bullet ricocheting off something not being fired from a gun, but that's how he used to do it. Fair play, sad Ken. Again, universally liked Cliff Richards, is he Investigate?
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, that's what we said Pick someone who's universally liked and we'll pick them apart. Cliff Richards, I don't think is universally liked. I don't think that you don't need to dig there were allegations, weren't there. Well, there were very. Yeah, I mean, there's allegations.
Speaker 2:We don't want to go into that, but I think he's a very I think to be fair, though, there were allegations, and then didn't they sort of search his place? Yeah, raided his house.
Speaker 1:It's like, oh yeah, we saw this coming, and then obviously no, no, it wasn't true. Because I think realistically and this is an awful thing to say but I think when they were raiding his house, if you're putting your money either way, you'd probably put your money on and finding something, wouldn't you?
Speaker 2:yeah, if you had to speculate, I think there was. Oh well, and we'd have been wrong to do, wouldn't you? Yeah, if you had to speculate, I think there was. Well, we'd have been wrong to do that, wouldn't we?
Speaker 1:Well, we'd have been completely wrong to do that. So apologies to Cliff Richards. What's his real name? He calls Dave, no, harry Webb. Innit, I'm going to say Dave Jones, harry Webb, harry Webb.
Speaker 2:Harry Webb yeah yeah, he's probably not universally liked, although he has done some great songs Wired for Sound will always be my favourite Wired for Sound. Yeah, cappy, again on the universally liked, has put Bruce Forsyth. Tear him down. Yeah well, never repeat the bit about wanting to die like your hero, freddie Mercury. Impossible not to laugh and incredibly difficult to explain to others, but we're laughing at.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I'd like to go the same way.
Speaker 2:Well, I'm just listening to this guy say he'd like to die like Freddie Mercury.
Speaker 1:He'd like to go the same way as Freddie. As for Bruce Forsyth, Frank's going to hate Bruce Forsyth, don't he?
Speaker 2:No, he doesn't.
Speaker 1:I've seen him live and he would like stamp it on floor because I've heard Bruce Forsyth playing here. He played here before and he was stamping on his grave.
Speaker 2:Alright. Well, I've heard him discuss him and he said he apparently cut a bit of Frank Skinner's joke out or something and he had things written on his hands and it was a bit old school. Well, obviously it was very much old school.
Speaker 1:Well, I'm not a big fan. I never was a big fan of him. Nice to see you, to see you nice he was a bit smarmy, weren't he? Yeah, I don't. Every time I think of him, I think of our mate Ross, who once took an ecstasy tablet and just stopped putting his chin out and we kept calling where was it?
Speaker 2:he went off somewhere and bought himself a Herbal tablet was in the scene. A herbal, a herbal, whatever it was, yeah, and he was saying this hasn't had any effect on me, On his own by the way, we weren't involved in this. Yeah, we didn't get involved. No, we were just having alcohol. But yeah, he went off and found himself this herbal pill and yeah, we were calling him Russ Forsyth. Yeah, russ Forsyth.
Speaker 1:Because he kept brill, he goes. Yeah, this hadn't affected me at all. I don't know why I bought this. It was a complete waste of time. I was speaking like 100 miles an hour with his massive chin going mm-mm good game.
Speaker 2:Nice. To see you, to see you Nice.
Speaker 1:You know what? I'm sorry, just sorry. There were once a story in the Viz obviously a fake story and it were about a man who used to do confessions for celebrities who were in a church and he said I knew who the next guy were because he started his confession by saying nice to confess me, to confess me nice. Why would he say that Nice to confess me, to confess me, nice. That?
Speaker 2:sounds like a Frank Skinner joke. Actually that weren't Frank Skinner was it.
Speaker 1:No, that was his Nice to confess mate. He confessed me nice.
Speaker 2:And said and, by the way, sorry, sorry, al Jesus Christ, you don't want to hear from Ange, do you no?
Speaker 1:no, sorry, yeah, and the thing was, he told us about his murderous spree. That was the story. He killed like 70 men, according to the viz.
Speaker 2:Anyway, sorry. Yeah, brucey boy. Yeah Right, we do nice To murder me. To murder me nice Condemn Bruce Forsyth.
Speaker 1:Or condemn him actually.
Speaker 2:Yeah, ange loved this midweek episode On the subject of adding van to a name. A senior exec where I worked bafflingly removed van from his name. His son worked for me. He was still a van. He said his dad went from Van Hessing to Hessing he thought it was too close to Van Helsing. Yeah, I was shocked to hear you read out a listener's email referring to the late great Delia Smith. I actually missed that. John Prescott died in November but felt sure I'd have heard of Delia's demise. Thankfully she's still alive.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I think that was a joke from you, wasn't it? It fell flat the late great oh.
Speaker 2:no, the late great oh no, hang on.
Speaker 1:Sorry, we're the majors, dad, no, we're, I can't remember.
Speaker 2:But I think it were a joke anyway.
Speaker 1:As for the van thing, I don't know if I would do that Like I mean.
Speaker 2:I get the Van Helsing noise. It's so close, isn't it? Yeah, anyone serious called Van Helsing?
Speaker 1:If I were called? I don't know.
Speaker 2:Van Helsing.
Speaker 1:What about if I were called Andrew Lloyd Nebber? Would I change my know? What about if I were called Andrew Lloyd Nebber? Would I change my name? What to Webber? No, because obviously this is that close To sounding like someone. So would you drop the Lloyd then? That's what I mean, just Andrew.
Speaker 2:Nebber, andrew Lloyd Nebber. You would always think of Andrew Lloyd Webber, so you'd drop the middle name.
Speaker 1:So if you were called I don't know Liam, I would always think of Andrew Lloyd Webster, so you'd drop the middle name. So if you were called Liam, michael Cain.
Speaker 2:Michael Cain.
Speaker 1:Michael Cain. Liam is the Liam, isn't it. Is there anyone? With a famous Liam middle name. I can't think of any. Liam Neeson, liam Neeson, neeson. Would you drop the Neeson? Yeah, probably to become just.
Speaker 2:Liam Neeson. Liam Neeson Neeson, would you drop the Neeson?
Speaker 1:Yeah probably to become just like him Like.
Speaker 2:Morrissey, it's Neeson.
Speaker 1:Neeson.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I would definitely be Neeson in that instance. So moving on now to comments on the talk sport episode. How very much enjoyed this boys. Probably short but sweet from how very much sums him up actually doesn't it. I don't think I'm very much tall on him, to be fair.
Speaker 1:Well, when he's in his Cuban heels you can still find him.
Speaker 2:You can still find him. Comment from Chad this is one of the few I can relate to. So Chad is our friend over in the USA, listens religiously but doesn't get most of what we talk about. Yeah, yeah, chad's comment this is one of the few I can relate to. I listen all the time. Yeah, it's interesting Over the. So yeah, it doesn't surprise me that Chad's aware of that one, it's interesting.
Speaker 2:It might work out that kind of our sort of peak shows aren't their peak shows, so you might get a bit of Jonathan Ross brother, paul Ross, paul Ross and Danny Baker, not Danny Baker, the other, danny, danny Kelly, danny Kelly, yeah, the ones that are in the night that we don't get to hear too much of. So, yeah, good to know that the USA audience enjoy talks.
Speaker 1:I was watching BBC today, watching football. I was recording this on Saturday, as I said, and it started off. Jason Mohamed said Sheffield United are three points clear. We're not, as we're recording this and probably won't be at any point. Then they had a conversation about why the three promoter teams keep going up and Dion Dublin genuinely, basically just said I think they just need to play better. Cheers, Dion, Thanks for that. Has anyone told Wild yet? I don't know. I don't know if anyone's told Wild. Clearly not. We're recording this on the eve of the Sheffield Derby and I'm already in a bad mood about it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I saw Pete's comments today and we both said yeah. So Pete comments today and we both said we'd take a 0-0 right now, no problems. So shocking, innit shocking. Justino said this made me laugh out loud quite a few times. Thanks for that.
Speaker 1:Justino yep, I like quite a few times, not a lot, yeah, not a lot.
Speaker 2:It's making it clear that more than once, but not enough to be lost, but not we're not talking double figures for Justine. Eneo.
Speaker 1:Justine Eneo, justine Eneo, justine Eneo yeah.
Speaker 2:A comment from Nick. Even though I don't really listen to talk sport, I enjoyed this episode. It helps knowing who most of the presenters are. As ever, it was an off-subject part that made me laugh the most, this time, andrew taking two attempts to do a yorkshire accent.
Speaker 1:uh, remember when a southerner asked me to do a yorkshire accent I am no problem, no reminder reminded me when I saw there asked him to do a yorkshire accent and he said, like I am a yorkshireman, I don't need to try and do an act.
Speaker 1:This is. This is a yorkshire accent. It is hard doing your own accent. I thought I said it before. It's like when actors or actresses or they have to play the self like and they say, oh, it's the hardest thing to do to play yourself well I have some sort of like manchester twang, like some people sometimes think I'm from manchester because you worked in manchester, didn't you yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I don't know if that's, I don't know, I don't know quite know where that came from. But yeah, I think when people want yorkshire, they want proper. Like hey, that's all right, that is they're having a good time, mate, like that's what they want. Yeah, nah, then. Nah, then D Is D alright.
Speaker 1:They don't say the because they call us the D-dolls, don't they? Because we said the and that, the, that, yeah, and they don't say that they're more like I don't know, they can't get, they can't get any water on there, I don't know.
Speaker 2:I remember Brendan when I worked with him, thinking he was a genius for coming up with he thought a brilliant saying. He said there's no wetter than water.
Speaker 1:There's no wetter than water. Remember when he went to Maranast. Has they got a wards? And he said they stopped doing wards for about 10 years. By this point, I don't know what you're talking about, cause next they'll be telling me that I don't do water, so shit yeah.
Speaker 2:Comment from Jez. So I worked in a bar at Headingley in the early 2000. Talk Sport did their broadcast show as a live broadcast from from the bar I had to help them set up. Alan Brazil was aghast. I didn't know who he was. I do now. My opinion of the man hasn't altered. So not a fan. I'm not surprised by this, I'm not surprised by that I don't know if you saw.
Speaker 1:I think it was a major post. Actually I think I sent it to you. In fact were doing roadworks in the middle of Cheltenham Festival should be hung, but they cut him off, didn't they? Before he said it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, strung up. I thought you were going to say strung up, sorry, yeah he should be strung up no music just complete silence it's like on the Simpsons, isn't it? When that bear starts talking crown, it just cuts to that. Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, isn't it? When that bear starts attacking the crowd?
Speaker 1:and it just cuts to that da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da, and it's the bear holding a flag. Yeah, yeah, yeah. By the way, you've missed one out from Craig there he said one of our.
Speaker 2:Oh, sorry, sorry Go on, yeah, go on. Yeah, I did miss one.
Speaker 1:You version of Rod Sexy, rod Sexy, do you think I'm Sexy?
Speaker 2:The best thing to ever happen on TalkSport, if not any radio show. So he's right. Yeah, you're right, craig, we didn't mention that we did on the Mike Parry, genius or Maniac episode. We did play that clip. Yeah, Probably good enough. We should have played it again. But you're right. Yeah, brilliant.
Speaker 1:If you think I'm sexy and you want to smooch me, come on, baby, open wide, so good yeah, really good, definitely worth it.
Speaker 2:If you've not heard it before, either find it on YouTube it's quite easy to find or go back and listen to our Mike Parry episode. So a comment from Nav. I was a guest on Hawksby and Jacobs for Christmas Eve in 2000.
Speaker 1:Excellent.
Speaker 2:That isn't it Brilliant, yeah, yeah, I'd missed that at the time, but yeah, well, I wonder what the sort of context was. I'd like to know more now of what capacity were you on?
Speaker 1:there Maybe his books. He's writing a wrestling book isn.
Speaker 2:He's writing a wrestling book, isn't he? So yeah, yeah was it. There was an author. Was he there as a fan of a certain?
Speaker 1:team, or yeah, I'd be intrigued to know. Let us know more.
Speaker 2:Nav. Let us know more Cappy again. Enjoy this, lads, cheers. I've been up at 4am the last few weeks and listened to Talksport in the car. Paul Ross is on at that time and he makes no effort, no effort whatsoever to be understood, doesn't complete sentences, just murmurs off and, uniquely, doesn't finish some of his words. Madness, his co-hosts are there, I think, so we can understand them and, from what they say, have a stab at what Ross is talking about.
Speaker 1:Unbelievable. Firstly, good luck to him. Cappy had an operation last week, so I hope everything's going well with him. All the best, cappy. Yeah, weirdly enough, and them um, but yeah, um, as I weirdly enough, and I said you this yesterday, so you know we're lying I was asked to go on the paul ross show last night, weren't I?
Speaker 2:yeah, I've seen, seen the correspondence.
Speaker 1:Yeah um, I I didn't. Really I can't be arsed to stay up until I mean he said half 11. I'm pretty sure he showed on starts or one. So I think I've just been. I've been done these radio things before where you just like hanging on line for like an hour waiting for and you're on for 10 minutes. They were about the Sheffield Derby which I think we're going to lose, so I didn't want to do it, but I was tempted. I mean, anyone else?
Speaker 2:Who got the gig? Do you know? I?
Speaker 1:don't know, to be honest, I don't know. I passed it on to Travelling but he said no thanks, but I but I think it's really really late. I might have to go back actually and listen to it, see what they got. But I would have got on that just for the Paul Ross factor. I think, if I were, I don't think we've ever mentioned that have we?
Speaker 2:I don't know, it's something we Am I right in saying that we both think there's a clip that we can never find? I can never find.
Speaker 1:Right. So there were the top 100 moments of the 80s or whatever, and one of the ones that were in there. One of the moments was when Dexter's Midnight Runners sang to a backdrop of Jockey Wilson instead of Jackie Wilson for the song Jackie Wilson. So I'm sure most people know what I'm on about. And it cuts Paul Ross doing one of these talking heads things and he's also doing the old Van Morrison classic Scooby-Doo-Doo-. A skiddly-doo-bay Doesn't go like that at all.
Speaker 2:No, I've looked for the clip and I can't find it.
Speaker 1:I can't If anyone knows that clip, please send it, because he definitely did that.
Speaker 2:Scooby-doo-doo bop a skiddly-doo-bay Skiddly-doo-bay he goes da sort of jazz version of it. Chango Mutley, formerly JP, used to work with Henk Potts who did the finance and economy slot at TalkSport. Nice guy Sadly passed away. Passed away too early a few months ago.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I don't know this guy Henk Potts.
Speaker 2:The name sounds familiar.
Speaker 1:Henk Potts? I'm not sure, but I'm pretty sure someone respond. Really really massive apologies if this is not true, but I think someone responded to chango mutley and I think it were a bot, who were saying I'm really sorry to hear about hank potts, I hope you're doing okay, and stuff like that. I've got a feeling it were a bot that were responding, but who knows?
Speaker 2:who knows. But yeah, all the best to hank potts and his family. Yes, bobby B, again only halfway through the clip of the two mics. Only halfway through. But the clip of the two mics I mean realising what Living With Mayley is based around could have been you two misquoting, not quite remembering absolute gold. So it's kind of insinuating that our show we've mentioned that before.
Speaker 1:Actually, yeah, and I genuinely I mean I'm more parried, I mean you're a right.
Speaker 2:That makes me great. You would have to be parried.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I do get things wrong, but I get things wrong in real life. I'm not trying to be my parry. I mean I'd love to be my parry, but I Cinnamon Challenge, fucking hell. I mean, I am quite an hypochondriac. It's a bit like Parry as well, aren't I? And I don't sleep much. Actually like Parry.
Speaker 2:I think it might kill you the Cinnamon Challenge.
Speaker 1:I just think you're going to sheer panic. I've headbutted things away all my life.
Speaker 2:People have thrown things at me and I've headbutted them away. Also, the Smelt Herring is the greatest caller in the history of radio, but I can't believe no mention of the second greatest.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Antti Niemi, he's no finish have you seen this?
Speaker 1:You've heard this. Should I say I don't know. Oh, he's brilliant. It turns out that years later he did do it on purpose. So he was saying Antti Niemi. This caller phoned up and said Antti Niemi should have been the England goalkeeper and the presenter I can't remember who it was now responded and said he's finished. Because he's not finished, he's only 28. Yeah, that sounds familiar now.
Speaker 2:Yes, wives me up the way TalkSport News will say. Former Premier League club chairman exclusively tells TalkSport he's a presenter on your show and said it five minutes ago.
Speaker 1:He's through that, isn't he?
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, as we mentioned, I think, uh, oh, go on. Uh, alex crook is unbelievable. How many times, like well, I've just been had this news. I've just been talking to them. Yeah, it's all exclusive to alex crook, but maybe, as maybe he's got so many good context, but sometimes I think he's just read it, yeah yeah, yeah, conspiracy theories.
Speaker 1:We're on to now and we have to mention Alan, who had a massive go at us. This is just a. I'm not going to read all the tweets out that he sent us because he was very angry.
Speaker 2:We're not sure, by the way, if this was a wind-up or a change.
Speaker 1:I think it might have Either that or he's mad. I'm going to go for the former. But he said of course Shakespeare was not, because I said in the tweet, was he a simpleton? And he said it's just as obvious that the man from Stratford was Likely too simple-minded yourselves to have understood this obvious distinction and reached this obvious conclusion. This kind of behaviour that should actually be understood is completely nutty. No conspiracy theory should ever have to be embarrassed when this is apparent, considered reasonable behaviour. The Shakespeare mystery is completely solvable. The unsolvable problem is getting people to stop being irrational twits. I'm not embarrassed to be called a conspiracy theorist because I actually understand what a conspiracy means and I've actually formulated an actual one that dimwits like you can't refute and couldn't, no matter what the circumstances or the consequences.
Speaker 2:There's loads of that, but basically we just had a massive that actually sounds like a soliloquy from one of his plays, doesn't it Like a rambling?
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, these dimwits cannot refute the circumstances of consequences Refute.
Speaker 2:Good sir, you will not the circumstances of consequence Befute. Good sir, you will not. Disposable evidence hints at your inherent and comprehensive arrogance. Yeah, yeah, he didn't like what we said.
Speaker 1:No, I put William Fakespeare back, which I don't think I've made that up, but I don't remember anyone else saying it. I can't have made William Fakespeare up and he just carried on, didn't he? And then we ended up having to ignore him, so probably 1-0. Alan, to be fair, might be my dad. He's called Alan. I doubt it, though there's weighing in on him, I'd be very shocked. Yeah, yeah, I don't think it's your dad.
Speaker 2:I mean to be fair. If he was serious, as I said in one of the comments, it's a light-hearted podcast. We it's a light-hearted podcast. We're not for one second. We have no idea.
Speaker 1:Our research involved opening with a beer. Yeah, I think we pretty much sold to the fact he is Shakespeare, though.
Speaker 2:I just wanted to have a go at it. Yeah, but tell Alan. Yeah, don't tell Alan, we don't know.
Speaker 1:LJD said study an episode. He wants to believe that all the theories discussed are true. I don't think they are. Although I'm getting loads of algorithms now on YouTube about Paul McCartney being dead, I didn't realise how many people still took it seriously. There's interviews with Paul McCartney and it's like look how he looks at the camera when he says this particular word. He's trying to give us a clue and all the comments are like he's a fucking prick. I hate him. Bring back the real Paul McCartney. I hate Billy Shears and I thought, oh, they must be joking, but they're not.
Speaker 2:But if you replaced him, it's because he died, so you either get this version or nothing. Even if you believe it's true, you get this or nothing.
Speaker 1:There's a couple of people who think he was just replaced. He was forced out of the band. I don't know why it would be, though.
Speaker 2:Well then, surely he'd still be around saying I, I was one of the Beatles, you know.
Speaker 1:Well, there's another one where it's just a man outside it does look a bit like Paul McCartney and he's a scouser, and it's a guy, because this is the real Billy Shears and it's just a normal man, like a scouser who looks a bit like Paul McCartney.
Speaker 2:I've seen that video fairly recently of Paul McCartney walking out somewhere and the guy behind him looks like an old John Lennon.
Speaker 1:No, but shit like that freaks me out. I'm trying to find it Now. I've said a wrestling conspiracy is when Jim Hellwig, who played the Ultimate Warrior he died. I remember this one. He died after leaving the WWF in 1991, and someone else played a less muscular Ultimate Warrior when making a return. I remember this. I remember getting the cards at school.
Speaker 2:Why did he sort of slim down a bit when he came back? Yeah?
Speaker 1:yeah, yeah, and I think it was after the steroid scandal. Do you know what I mean? Yeah, so they tried to cut down and all that. And I remember getting a card of him thinking I don't look anything like the Ultimate Warrior, but I think it's a lot of shit.
Speaker 1:He also says Hulk Hogan got round the boot while cutting a promo during WWE's Raw debut on Netflix. Wwe's gone to Netflix. He didn't blame this podcast, though, when discussing it in an interview a few weeks later, which is good. We don't want people to boo the Hulk's to do it. No, no, no. Chad says can't wait for part two. You need to do some more. You need to do some American conspiracy theories. Trust me, the rabbit hole on them is endless. Send us some Chad Love to talk about them.
Speaker 2:Um, that was that cattle thing that I was going to look at. That was based in the usfa, but yeah, didn't, didn't bother doing the research.
Speaker 1:So sorry, chad now just send us some in chad. What are some of your favorites? Ben said, what if william shakespeare and billy shears are one and the same, the great time traveling artist? What?
Speaker 2:he sort of goes around. Yeah, he's a time traveler making lives. Yeah yeah, it's plausible. I'll tell you what one thing I will say is I can't prove that's not true.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you can't prove. That's not true. You cannot prove. Have you ever?
Speaker 2:seen that the burden of proof sits with the accuser.
Speaker 1:It's a hoax, but it's a bloke who said I went into an alternative reality, um, like accidentally, and the beatles were still going in the 70s, and a guy gave me a tape and all he's done basically spliced all the solo beatles songs into, like it's quite really well done, like a mash-up, you know what I mean. And he said, oh, this is what they're recording now.
Speaker 2:Um, but yeah I don't see the film with a guy who lives in a world where the Beatles don't exist, so he writes their songs last film I saw at a cinema that mate.
Speaker 1:To be honest with Jay and Ege. What do you think? Alright, it's a bit sickly, isn't it? It's a bit. It doesn't make sense, does it?
Speaker 2:no, it doesn't make sense because John Lennon is still did. He's not a brummie. I know what you did, kid he's not. He's not that either, but what I didn't like about as well as I.
Speaker 1:He's got all these things on wall like how to you know I play chords and oh yeah, they did a dattle and a rigby and blah, blah, blah and all this stuff. And then like he types oasis in, um, and they don't exist, because obviously the beatles didn't exist. Just nick all their songs as well. You can imagine that as well yeah, just flick it.
Speaker 2:It's like uh, gary and uh good night sweetheart, isn't? It so good yeah, what you want, from whoever you want one of my favorite scenes in good night sweet.
Speaker 1:Or he cut back to gary like so much going on and he's going living life in peace.
Speaker 2:He's like doing imagine brilliant I thought you were gonna say then he was doing living with me. Imaginely, imagine that.
Speaker 1:That'd be amazing, wouldn't it, if that slice came out. Imagine if I'd nicked that Real Bobby B said he's totally on board with the Shakespeare one. So have that, alan. He says, especially after he intimated that he might be a druggie and then mentioned Ben Johnson, who was obviously well-known for his substance abuse. Yeah, exactly, the fact that his family are illiterate is a big flag.
Speaker 2:he says for the Shakespeare conspiracy. I mean to be fair, I think your two were. Well, you had three, but the two that I thought were the best were the McCartney and the Shakespeare, because there is enough sort of flesh around the bones almost to think, oh, hold on a minute, they are genuinely quite interesting. I don't believe either of them, but there's enough there that you think oh yeah, that makes you think, doesn't it?
Speaker 1:Unlike the next one. Chang'e Motley says some of his best colleagues, some of my best colleagues, are Finns. I shall inquire about Nokia fish, but we don't believe that one, do we?
Speaker 2:Yeah, that was that Finland does not exist, does no exist. Yeah, that was that Finland does not exist. Does no exist, I mean we can't prove it either way, but we think it does, don't we?
Speaker 1:Probably exists. Webding says forget about, paul is dead. Why not investigate? Investigate Dead bat is dead bat Because obviously Tufty Club hadn't done a Dead bat is dead bat. Yeah, obviously Tufty Club had not done a podcast for ages, but I saw Webding actually before the game on tuesday night and I said it would return to form their latest podcast. But that makes it sound like the one before was shit.
Speaker 2:But I meant like it was a good episode. Yeah, yeah, I mean that when I found out what that means. By the way, the nickname dead. But I thought that was great because obviously so. I mean you've seen more of them than me, you go to more games, games. But we met Dead Bat on Webster a couple of years ago and see him fairly regularly. But both great, great set of guys.
Speaker 2:But yeah, kind of just just started calling Dave Dead Bat because that's his, that's his Twitter name and without really knowing what it means. And he's a fantastic guy, really fun and I really sort of he's actually great to watch a game with. He thinks he's been really negative, but he's quite. I think he's quite insightful. That's my take on it. But yeah, the term dead back comes from when he played cricket that he used to do a lot of shots, which is where you just drop the ball dead. You just play a dead bat shot. You make no attempt to play the ball yeah, negative for everyone who thinks it's very negative.
Speaker 2:It's such. It sums him up so well that follows on.
Speaker 1:He said when he used to play Sabutio they'd have a timer and he'd just boot the ball off the pitch so he'd get a 0-0. Just keep getting it.
Speaker 2:Playing for a 0-0 in Sabutio.
Speaker 1:Playing for a 0-0 in Sabutio Brilliant, absolutely amazing. It's like I don't know like primary you Amazing. It's like fucking, like I don't know. Like. Prime Radio, unbelievable Berlin sent us a list of people who are favourites to be on the Epstein list. You know, everyone says that's going to come out soon. Trump's going to release it.
Speaker 2:That was supposed to be, he's not going to release it.
Speaker 1:He's probably on it, if anything. But he says Stephen Mulhern is conspicuous by his absence. Something for us to look into. The next conspiracy, pod I'd be amazed if there was a fake Epstein list going around and everyone going, oh, this is it. This is real. Fogden were on it. Do you know the YouTuber? Who is it Fogden? Do you know? They're like the kid, the YouTube kid Like does Bolton games and things like that. Imagine being in Epstein Island with him, just like. I'll tell you what guys he's all kicking off in here today. David says one of his favourite conspiracies is that pigeons are spy cameras. Have you heard that? I've heard that one before.
Speaker 2:I don't even know where to start with that what?
Speaker 1:So pigeons are not pigeons.
Speaker 2:Pigeons are spy cameras.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, yeah. So pigeons are actually just robotic and they're all cameras, just like watching us.
Speaker 2:Well why are most of them sort of spying on McDonald's bins, then it's not a great. Just to make sure they're not based around government buildings.
Speaker 1:are they Health and safety? Just making sure health and safety is going all right um, so we get our nice food now right on to you could maybe.
Speaker 2:Maybe some of them are, but if all of them are, that's ridiculous, yeah that's ridiculous.
Speaker 1:So some of them could be, though, couldn't they um?
Speaker 2:anyway possible. There's one or two.
Speaker 1:Yeah, the dave jones episode, dave jones conspiracy episode. Go back and listen to it. Um, and you know, much maligned, but um, I think there's there's something in it. Uh, bobby b's back again and he said he enjoyed this one. Uh, so off the wall. Uh, I guess some kind of hallucinogenic mushrooms were found in chapel st leonards. When you come up with this conspiracy, no drugs were taken, but he did come up with it in chapel st leonard, but uh, only alcohol and you had your vape.
Speaker 1:That was the only it wasn't laced with psychedelics you never know, these days, though, what they put in them, do you? So you know?
Speaker 2:yeah, certainly not intentionally, you know, if we yeah, we were I wouldn't say we were sober, we were, we were under the influence of alcohol alone I would say now this is interesting.
Speaker 1:matthew whitehouse said am I the only person, when you said the dave jones conspiracy, thought it were about the ex-wensley and south hampton manager, and has anyone seen the two dave jones in the same room? Meanwhile, at the same time, pretty much this another post came through from matthew pluse. Another matthew who said, perhaps telling me, when I saw the podcast title I thought there's going to be about the monkeys frontes frontman Dave Jones, the character David Jones from Pirates of the Caribbean or the Wolves manager Dave Jones. So that's two people at the same time who thought we were talking about another Dave Jones and this People who probably see the Dave Jones we're talking about on a weekly basis.
Speaker 2:He didn't come to their mind and actually I messaged you last weekend so I was watching the Sunday game with my dad I can't remember which one, it was 4.30 game.
Speaker 1:Man United, arsenal. Yeah, yeah, I watched that, yeah.
Speaker 2:And we watched the halftime piece.
Speaker 2:I was looking for glitches, but I didn't see anything and it went to the adverts after halftime and I said to my dad you know the guy that we've just and he started laughing. He said I knew you were going to ask me this. Yeah, go on. I said what's his name again and he went oh, it's. What did he say? It wasn't Dave. He said it was none of that. He said, oh, is it Gary Walsh? And I laughed and said no, walsh, gary Walsh, it's Gary Walsh. He said no, it's nothing like that. It was Dave Jones. He went oh yeah, I just forgot. So he knew I was going to ask him. He'd just been sat looking at him and he couldn't think of his name.
Speaker 1:Well, Matthew Plews also added that he could have named presenters for a year and never come up with the name Dave Jones as an option.
Speaker 2:No one knows who he's called he's listening to us talking now, Ten minutes after this episode. If somebody said to you what's that Sky Sports presenter guy's name, You'll struggle.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you'll struggle, and no one can picture him in the red. You might think you're picturing him, but you're probably.
Speaker 2:Because we've talked about him that much, I'm starting to. But what I'm realising is I'm picturing him from about 10 years ago. When I see him, I think, ah, there's been an update.
Speaker 1:He looks older than version I remember. Honestly, if you mention his name, I immediately think of jewels. Do you know? Does the midweek soccer side? Well, it's not like yeah, yeah, so you say dave jones? I think yeah, I've got it. Oh no, that's jewels. Incredible, anyway, sad. Ken said it's the ramblings of a madman. I don't know if he's talking about you, me or dave jones. Uh, yeah, tyrone, this is interesting, he said. I've met him once. Seemed very awkward, but that could have been his own social awkwardness and him not being comfortable being recognised. He said nice bloke, though I think you know Tyrone's like. This computer man who he's met is obviously like going. Oh, yeah, yeah, I'm fine, brilliant, nice day, see you later. He's off.
Speaker 2:Yeah, if you met C-3PO or Short Circuit, that would be awkward as well, wouldn't it? They'd struggle, I think, with the human interaction. So evidence Possibly yeah, evidence there.
Speaker 1:Matt says on this platform it's not that crazy as a theory compared to some others on here, which is fair enough, isn't it? I love these mad conspiracy theories.
Speaker 2:Yeah, which is kind of what we were saying. We were joking. If you listen to it and you got to the end yeah, we don't. We clearly don't actually believe it, but there's enough. There's enough there.
Speaker 1:You could build a conspiracy around it yeah, webbing's back again and he said due to sleep deprivation, he can't remember anything at the minute. Um, using him to back up the forgettable man theory is the standard of proof I would expect from a conspiracy theory. So well done. So we've got what we so well done. But he says he thinks we've simply found a man with a more generic face than him. If people don't know, webding looks like Terry Hall, johnny Greenwood, every Chinese person. What else is on his list? He's got a list of lookalikes.
Speaker 2:There was that puppet recently that looks just like him.
Speaker 1:Oh, the thingy-possessing-my-street puppet. I recently the thing you possess in my street puppet can't remember what he's called now, yeah, it's not.
Speaker 2:Is it the cow? No, it's not the cow, is it?
Speaker 1:no, you can also make like him, though, as well, actually uh, you can make a case, but now that's not.
Speaker 2:It's not that um. So you actually looks like um. I don't know if this is on the list, actually, but if he's listening at any point on his sort of travels. Do you know the out of the cartoon character the chipmunks, the dad Dave?
Speaker 1:Oh yeah.
Speaker 2:He's just come to mind, and that made me think of Webster.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we're watching Maximo Park and, from a certain angle, the lead singer everyone looks like him if you look in the right places.
Speaker 2:He also said I've got football on in the background now and even as I'm watching Darren Bent, I'm getting hints. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I can see it.
Speaker 1:Just hints of Webster in there. He also said he had to pause halfway through. Just as you say we haven't lost our minds right after suggesting that Tony Benn had relations with an AI bot. Fantastic Anne says she agrees he's the grey man of sports broadcasting. She said if she witnessed him committing a crime and the police asked her to describe him with an artistic impression, she'd have no chance. She says she recognises him when he's on Super Sunday, but otherwise she can't call any features to mind. And that is a great point there.
Speaker 2:Yeah, now we've put it out there. This would be impossible to do, but I think what I'd have loved to have done is before we did. The episode is get a room of 10 people and say draw us the face and write the name underneath it of the Sky Sports presenter. I could just imagine all of the blank faces coming back and like he could commit any crime he wanted.
Speaker 1:Couldn't he thinking about it?
Speaker 2:Well, anyone can. But yeah, most people would face the consequence of the law. But yeah, his face is just a blur. Nobody can see him.
Speaker 1:I honestly that's it. He should go into high criminal activity. I think that'd be a good career move for him after he's finished with soccer. Sat there, uh, anyway. Berlin said this podcast was insane he would recommend. Jake said absolutely fucking mental. Don't know if I'm just as bad for listening to 31 minutes of this madness. I don't know if he finished it off, but yeah.
Speaker 2:I thought they didn't, but he'd had enough there.
Speaker 1:He's just like what am I doing with my life? I don't want any more of this.
Speaker 2:He said this on a Sunday as well the day of rest.
Speaker 1:Naff simply just said he is no dickie davis. Yeah, brilliant, and that is all. The comments are really for the last three bonus episodes. A lot to get through there. I really appreciate everyone who um sent stuff back, and we've got a lot of direct messages as well which we don't like to read out because we don't know if they want to be private, if you know what I mean. Um, but comment on on particular things as well, don't we?
Speaker 2:if they want to be private, if you know what I mean, but comment on particular things as well, don't we? Yeah, and apologies to people who do message privately if we take a while to get by. I think sometimes I think you're going to respond, you think I am, and we don't respond very quickly to some of them. So I think we've responded to everything now.
Speaker 1:Like two, I don't know two defenders who leave it. It's not call us out on it. We need a captain. You're like it's yours, it's yours, they f***ing scored haven't they nobody's done it yeah right, it's the big announcement time. Liam, we should have put some music in there, but can't be arsed.
Speaker 2:Can you do any sound effect like explosions and stuff? Can you do your sound effects? No, not bad, I know, forget that yeah, so I know, forget that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so Living With Madeley has got one more episode left and it will be no more. I thought this was the last one. Has it got another one? I said we'll do a finale just to give people time to breathe.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, but I thought if this was the sort of announcement episode, then no, I thought we'll do a final.
Speaker 1:Ain't tight, nash? Right, madeleine, make a little end in like the most chaotic way, like you know that we're thinking. To be honest, it's not as people. I imagine people are dropping the phones in the street going oh my god what yeah, like dead bats jogging to the ground, like a stone it's like no, yeah, people are crying. Like I don't imagine someone on holiday links, and like the I don't know the Great Wall of China, china and going no.
Speaker 2:There's a lego on a train that's just pulled the cord. You know that brings a train to a halt.
Speaker 1:Berlin Blaze, booking a flight to talk us out of it back from Berlin, the site. But no, we're just going to rebadge it, aren't we? You fool.
Speaker 2:We've rebadged it, you fool.
Speaker 2:Yeah so basically, the story is we're going to keep going, we've enjoyed what we're doing. A Basically the story is we're going to keep going, we've enjoyed what we're doing. A lot of people tell us that they didn't listen for a while, or that they don't listen because they had no idea what it is. The Living With Madeley thing was supposed to be something quite clever the anchor there that Madeley's always on TV and that's the thing you used to. I don't know if you do to a limited version. You keep loads of notes.
Speaker 1:It's not really on it anymore. This is another reason we don't talk about madley anymore. So calling it living with madley just feels like a bit fraudulent scenes.
Speaker 2:I think we haven't mentioned him for ages yeah, and if you don't know what it is and you clicked on that logo, you would think what on earth?
Speaker 1:is why is richard mainly talking to these two people like I?
Speaker 2:don't want to listen to this. Yeah, do they live with him? Turn it off, yeah. So yeah, we're going to go back to something I think I kind of almost wanted to do initially, that you wanted something cleverer, if I'm honest.
Speaker 1:I'm trying to be too clever. This is the story of my life.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Sometimes it pays off.
Speaker 2:Sometimes Most of the time it doesn't pay off. Sometimes, most of the time it doesn't pay off the backtrack. So we're just quite simply going to rebadge ourselves as who.
Speaker 1:Remembers who. Remembers. We're going to say it as though.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I think you might say that more than me. I don't want to keep saying who Remembers so what we're going to do right. Basically, the one thing is, the TV theme was stopping us. We enjoy the specials because we can do anything.
Speaker 1:We was stopping us. We enjoy the specials because we can do anything.
Speaker 2:We enjoy more than the actual episodes. Yeah, we can remember anything I can remember anything, mate.
Speaker 1:I've seen everything. I remember everything. Who remembers old-fashioned trousers? Who remembers asbestos?
Speaker 2:That was my first shout for the podcast.
Speaker 1:It was better in hindsight.
Speaker 2:Again slightly too niche, but we're even stripping that back, just to who remembers.
Speaker 1:So there's two reasons why we're doing this. One is that no one. Well, there's three. One, no one knows what the fuck the podcast is about, yeah. Two, we don't talk about Maitland anymore. And three, the main reason is it means we can talk about anything. So what we're going to do is we're going to be loosely based around 1980 to 2010, and we're going to try and cover 30 years of everything around pop culture events, anything that happened in those.
Speaker 1:If you've got any suggestions, fashion two years of her well, we want to call it some of 30 years or something, but I don't think anything rounds with her If you've got any ideas, cause it's going to be called who remembers? And then it's going to be called, like a subtitle, of 30 years of nostalgia, nostalgia, 30 years of nostalgia, nostalgia, 30 years of nostalgia. What else did we say?
Speaker 1:pop culture memories whatever we'll think of it, um, we're gonna do a madeleine finale anyway before we go, but yeah, there's that. So if it's gonna, could be anything. Could be the internet, could be things that were happened on the internet. Could be, um, old toys, could be old shops that don't exist anymore and we're just going to talk about because, like I said, we enjoy the ones where we go out of the tv, just remember it.
Speaker 2:You're just remembering things, peter, remembering things, don't you?
Speaker 1:know what we're gonna. We were gonna. Well, I didn't ask you. I thought that might have been a good title. We're just remembering things. But again, I don't think people know what the fuck we're talking about.
Speaker 2:Um, that's all we could think about that, but yeah it's. It is going to be re-badged. We're not quite sure how it works in terms of yeah previous episodes, and it might mean a new twitter page that we have to set up um we'll see, we'll do blue sky as well, won't we? Which? Yeah?
Speaker 1:we'll do blue sky. A couple people have asked us about that, um, and we're as woke as they come, so you know we'll. We'll definitely get on that.
Speaker 2:we're woke, we're anti-woke, we're whatever, whatever you want us to be.
Speaker 1:By the way, this is mainly for Ryan, who keeps asking us to do a Sopranos episode. We still will be doing TV stuff. We are still going to be doing TV, but it's just not going to be all about TV. So we will do the Sopranos Maybe not in the first four or five episodes, when we come back or whatever.
Speaker 2:I like the idea that every series keeps saying we're going to do Sopranos.
Speaker 1:I like the idea that he constantly keeps sending that gif of you know, like Tony Soprano doing the headshot thing. But we are intending to do that. But yeah, it could be anything. It could be fucking old serials, I don't know. Whatever you think of Magazines, it could be. We're going to do maximum research as usual because, like I say, we enjoy doing the you know, the steve irwin one, even though that were tv just going through someone, you're not not being tied to that. Or we have to talk about his tv shows, you know, talk about a man himself, or it could be, people could be. It was a big man. It could. We could do the. The story of mark we could.
Speaker 1:We could easily do michael barrymore. We could do if you wanted to do a band from that era. You know, if you want us to do, if we don't like them, we'll probably not do them, but we will. In fact I'd do the Spice Girls if you want us to do that, or All Saints, someone like that, yeah. Well, you didn't ask us to do them but yeah, Bands, I've got an idea which I've not told you about yet Anything.
Speaker 2:you don't have to list everything.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I'll tell you my ideas off air. You've enjoyed listening to my ideas, haven't?
Speaker 2:you? Yeah, andrew, we've all enjoyed the memories.
Speaker 1:Jay Comfrey. We could do as well. That's a good one to watch out for, isn't it? Because he's? I mean, I think we could get away with Steve. Pink. Whatever happened to Steve Pink. What happened to Steve Pink that could? Be, another one. What happened?
Speaker 2:Where are?
Speaker 1:they now? That's the thing, isn't it? I don't know when are they now. Yeah, maybe.
Speaker 2:Anyway, it's probably going to be a Remembers. We've got an episode I didn't know about today which is a finale. Yeah, it'll probably be a month before we hit you with the new series, but then we're going to move away as well, football seasons.
Speaker 2:We can do as well. Yeah, we're not necessarily doing series. We've tried to do a number of series with 12 episodes in. This just means we can do them as and when we want. We're going to try and aim for one every week, though. Yeah, yeah, that's the aim. Yeah, I'm not sure about the midweek, whether that'll still happen or whether that'll be rolled into the episode or I don't know it's gonna be exciting it's an exciting new thing.
Speaker 1:So also, this is gonna be one of the last times you hear the theme tune, because obviously I thought we'll do a finale, because I don't want to. I know people love the incredible amount of work that put into that Living With Maidly theme tune.
Speaker 2:Yeah it's good, it's good and it's obviously. That might be the one thing that we yeah.
Speaker 1:So I thought you know we'll do a finale. I don't know what. We'll just talk shit about previous episodes, basically.
Speaker 2:We've got an hour out of this, and it might it might well.
Speaker 1:Oh, my god, I need to listen to this. I probably won't, but yeah, so we'll call it Living With Maitley for now and we'll be back for that next week.
Speaker 2:I mean, we've already done the best and worst of Living With Maitley, but we could talk about some stuff. Yeah, we could do the best and worst of the best and worst of Living With Maitley we'll just, we'll go talk about that, yeah, and obviously bring your box of tissues. There'll be some, some tears, some laughs. It's a bit like I'm trying to think who rebranded?
Speaker 1:who's rebranded like. Does anyone rebrand any big companies? Biggest rebrands in Israel? We should have probably done something. It's a good start it's here for our podcast. Who remembers rebrandings?
Speaker 2:who remembers rebranding?
Speaker 1:Who remembers rebranding. Yeah, that could have been a good thing, that who remembers rebranding Well obviously Marathon to Snickers, I suppose oh, yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That would have been another name for it Opal Fruits to Starburst, starburst, yeah, yeah, what's the one of Partridge where it says it's not, it's not a Rover Metro anymore, it's a Mini Metro or whichever. Yeah, the most successful Rebrands of all time. Yeah, we should. Could have called it that we'd be badged at you for, to be fair, gap.
Speaker 2:It wouldn't make any sense unless you were already listening though would it?
Speaker 1:It wouldn't make any sense at all, but that's what we do. Dunkin Donuts Re rebrand it's just called Dunkin's now. I didn't know that.
Speaker 2:No, well, you rebadged yourself, didn't you? From Andrew to Andreas, roy, panchero, panchero, you've had a couple rebads.
Speaker 1:All were accidental, though then they were not planned. They were very accidental rebrands, but yeah.
Speaker 2:Well, they were very accidental rebrands, but yeah, you chose to call yourself Panchero on Twitter accidentally like something fell on the keyboard and just pressed the button. I didn't realise like it was going to be.
Speaker 1:I don't know. That was before I started doing View From and I got some followers. I didn't realise that I was going to be called Panchero forever and Roy. This is quite a funny story actually. Obviously people don't know. I do Roy's view from Spatshuffle United, basically opposition fans, and that was because I was called Roy on the Old Blades Mad, because I listened to a song called Roy G Biv by Boards of Canada. I was genuinely going to call myself the real Jesus Christ. So imagine if that were called Jesus Christ's view from.
Speaker 2:You'd have got abuse from that guy who's told Nick that he shouldn't be saying Jesus. Oh yeah, so I want someone to go at Nick on the comments.
Speaker 1:But yeah, we'll stay away from that, but we can do remember who remembers Jesus, if you want us to do that.
Speaker 2:Anyway, liam, thank you very much for a fantastic oh, thank you to everyone who commented, and hopefully we read out everything that anybody made public, so thank you very much, everybody yep, thank you very much and I'll see you next week for the grand finale. Yeah, it's going to be emotional. If anyone wants to get in touch with us, send us anything. Find us on twitter at livingwithmade1, or you can send us an email at livingwithmadely at outlookcom.
