29:48Cluedo versus Mousetrap. Easy winner for me. Really? Easy winner. You don't know me, bro. i play a bit of cluedo

30:04i do i do i do play a bit of cluedo um i don't really like it my kids like it okay um i find i'm never sure what how you're supposed to use the bit of paper well like i know like you're supposed to wait are you where are you ticking where you what are you doing you got your right your notes of who you think it is yeah but i don't really you can cross off things to be like i know it's not that yeah you eliminate don't you you eliminate yeah i get yeah but i didn't i don't know i just find it but i think it's a murder mystery isn't it is but then it gets a bit annoying as well people keep putting your character in a different room miles away and you can never get to where you want to go yeah yeah yeah that's i guess that's mousetrap technique yeah i haven't played it since i was a child i have very fond memories i think it's class and I think enough board games have mechanisms and stuff and it's fun to watch isn't it I don't know what it is what is it it's like the ball goes around and like the mouse is under and then it's the one with like the cage that's down and catches the mouse I don't think I've ever played it really I can't remember how you play it I can't remember what I remember nothing from it except that it was fun to watch it when it happens yeah there's a bit of excitement in that isn't it yeah it really goes I'm gonna go Cluedo I think it's a good game Mousetrap for me you can decide again see Cluedo If Mousetrap beats Cluedo, fuck me.

31:23You like Cluedo because you love traitors. What? Is that some of it? That's your vibe. Yeah, it's just a murder mystery, Jack. Is it? Same sort of thing, innit? Yeah. You're literally trying to figure out who's the person getting rid of everyone. Yeah, but when I play it, I don't really see it as all who's the killer. I'm just like, which word is it going to be? What? Do you know what I mean? If that's the same thing, which person's it going to be? Yeah, true. You've done me there like Kipper.

31:50I'm gonna go it has to be Cluedo thank you but I do love the mechanism but Cluedo is it's not a board game Mousetrap is not a board game you two really stick together since you started fucking what eight years ago what do you mean no I mean really fucking like panned in Mousetrap is a board game Jenga wasn't okay why put it in there then Scrabble versus Guess Who. Oh. Right, I have a fun way of playing Guess Who. Oh, what's your opener? It's not, I like playing Guess Who, but not like saying, does he have a moustache? Yeah. I like saying, would you trust this guy? Would you leave your drink uncovered around this guy?

32:39That is good. And if you're not allowed to ask questions about the appearance, it makes it much more fun. That's good. That is very good. personality traits because it's subjective as well yeah what you leave your kid around yeah do you think this person's a good driver yeah women down

32:59that's great that is good yeah so that's a fun way of playing it does lead to arguments yeah yeah scrabble also leads to a lot of arguments fuck scrabble yeah scrabble's for cunts yeah Scrabble I don't want a fucking spelling lesson and it's like you just it's not if you play Scrabble against someone else you shit at Scrabble it's fine if we played Scrabble fine maybe not him because he's probably one of these guys if we played Scrabble you and Nijak fine but people like Stevie who go oh I've learnt loads of words with two letters on and they go XO is a word it means a fucking cat in Peru and you go well it doesn't matter because none of us know that and it's just shit yeah agreed Well put, well put.

33:40And also, most of the answers to that Tension game we play are all about Scrabble, and that annoys me. What? Yeah, when we played Tension last time, we just kept on loads of Scrabble ones. It's always like, what's the Scrabble score? I don't know, mate. I play Scrabble. Oh, with Ian? Yeah. Oh, right, yeah, fair. I think we're all... I'd go guess. Guess who's so simple as well. Any board game you need a dictionary or a calculator for, not asked. Yeah, you want the simplicity. Guess who has absolutely fucked over Scrabble then? Yeah. Guess who, not Scrabble. You like that? Risk! You said you like long games.

34:12Risk versus Snakes and Ladders. I've never played Risk and I don't know what it is. I don't know how you play it. You basically tried to conquer the world. That's the simple side of it. Seems a lot. Yeah, it is a lot. It's a fairly long format game. You've played this? Out of all the mainstream board games, Risk is the greatest. No way! Risk is unreal. For a basic, classic board game, I'm not talking like the new, sort of like slightly sort of obscure. Yeah. I'm not talking your Carcassons or your Settlers of Catan. Right. But out of the old school board games, I think Risk is the greatest. Wow.

34:50I don't know. I thought Risk was like a dice game. First base game. I mean, again, I haven't played for ages. I've not played for a long time. I'm going to play just roll five dice and see how many maps. No, but you have to sort of take over different areas and it's like you put your armies in certain places. There's a lot of like phone games that kind of follow the same format of Risk. Like Clash of Clans? I guess so. I think they're trying to take over places. Obviously, there's different elements to it, but that is kind of all it is. You're seeing who can own the most of the board. Right. I used to love Risk, but for some reason, I've not played Risk for a long time.

35:20Snakes and Ladders, simple. You can get it in a park on the floor. No skill, though. Pure luck. Yeah, it's pure luck. It is pure luck. Games are worse if it's pure luck, isn't it? Yeah, I agree. Because there's no skill element. Yeah, Snakes and Ladders, you play the kid because it's easy, but you're not going to go, we wouldn't go do you want to come around and play snakes and ladders yeah that's true if you said you want to play Risk I'd go yes I will say out of everything we've picked so far no luck has managed to get through to the next round what is the luck? what one's the luck? um yeah Hungry Hungry Hippos can be a lot of luck if you're it's not pure luck though there's technique there's tactics we want pure luck are you smashing it or are you waiting for them to come close then nah you're right none of them luck alright thanks to that apology accepted I've already put Risk in because neither of you are going to give this yeah you just give it risk and I don't even know what that is the game of life yeah versus checkers checkers is that checkers drafts yeah that's the one where you hop over the ones here diagonally yeah and you can do like if you're good at it you can lure them in and then you can kind of go over are you all right with a bottle there?

36:32yeah I'm good you can go over loads of their things in one move oh you hop hop hop yeah you lure them in you could make it look like you've only got one left and they're trying to pin you in and then you can hop over all of them and suddenly we're not out of nowhere can i ask a question about pre uh upcoming fixtures yeah is backgammon on there you can't tell you can't reveal like you can ask i'm not going to tell you though why is that relevant because backgammon is a better version of checkers a more skill-based version and growing up it's the game i played the most my mom was addicted to it is skill-based it's just simple oh but is it oh your things it's like Connect 4 fuck off if you think you're good at Connect 4 fuck off

37:10you think you're good at Connect 4 don't you no I'm shit here I'm bringing in a Connect 4 next time we're in the studio there's no skill to it it's just dropping things it aren't there's some anticipation yeah there's some things you look ahead and go if they do this here I've got two ways to win and they're fucked it's very simple do you think it's cool to be good at noughts and crosses? No. No. Because you can learn techniques in your crosses that means if you start, you never lose. Just try and get three corners straight away. You're flying. Yeah. There's various things. Whereas Checkers, Connect Four and noughts and crosses are all in a similar vein to me and they will never win on this game.

37:53Well, what do you think of the Game of Life? I never played it. And they're still going to win for you? Yeah. You hate Checkers that much, Game of Life wins? If it was backgammon, now we're talking, bit more to it, got a bit more about it. That's Chekka's cooler, sexier, older brother. Okay. I loved the Game of Life when I was a kid. Yeah. Like, it was a fun game to play. It's the one, you don't get a dice. Instead, there's like a little circle spin, like a left type wheel on the board instead that goes like one to nine. And you drive a car and you fill it with kids, don't you? Yeah. You get a family.

38:23What are you writing down? Game of Life. Yeah. Yeah. No, but Game of Life as well, you've got that big decision where do you go to uni or do you just go straight into work and go uni you won't earn you won't do as well to start with then you might speed up and you go on that separate track how do you win the game of life get to the end first die first I don't know yeah I think it's about earning it's basically living a better life and like getting a family and but it's quite there's quite a lot into it for such a simple game I think it's not age well because like it's obviously like if you go to like uni you then get more money whereas like these days it seems to be like Bill does the sensitive and loads back right right fair well I'm putting are you going to go game of life because he's still against checkers.

39:00I don't mind checkers. I'll go Game of Life. I'm going Game of Life for nostalgia. If you had to rate Game of Life out of 10, what score would you? Eight, yeah. Great game. Trivial Pursuit versus Operation. Very different. Operation used to give me an erection. Genuinely. Us going through that. Genuinely. Trivial Pursuit made me cum. Sorry. we can all play that game what do you mean? as a kid or like yeah kid you would use it to electrocute your penis no no no now you're thinking outside the box this was much more you were fucking inside the box basic you were fucking the box so that game where because you you have to get the bones out don't you yeah that's not what they meant first step get out of the bone okay now it looks like I've got an erection and then every time you touch the metal it electrocutes it like it buzzes doesn't it yeah the same as that wiry one.

39:58Oh, I hate that. Yeah. Yeah, but you'd feel that one. The operation, it just vibrates a little bit. Right. There might be some people out there that think I'm a nutter for this, but I think there will be, I think we'll be surprised. Get in the Spotify comments. This is the comment question of the day. We're going to start doing this, by the way. Comment question of the day. Did, what's that called, that wiry thing, Stevie? What is that called? I know what you're talking about. When you try and get the hoop through like the long bending metal without it electrocuting or vibrating. If you touch the metal, it buzzes, it goes off.

40:27Oh, it's so stressful. Yeah, it's horrible. So that and Operation would give me like a tense erection. That one, the metal one where you've got to take it around, that would be if Squid Games were made in Britain, that would be the game they'd play. Yeah, that's a great shout. Yeah, you'd die if you touched it. Oh, did you just say an intense erection? Sorry to bring it up. Thank you for picking up on that, Stevie. I missed that. And I would have been devastated if I listened back and we hadn't commented on that. because because i'd be all i'd be all tense i'd be tense because i don't want it to and then like are you naked at the time i'm just trying to picture this no one's commented saying they were erect over operation like sometimes do you ever get an erection when when like people probably no matter what you say to robbie and i now we're probably both going to say no when you're alive i'll be honest but i know it's gonna be a no yeah like can I do what I want to do on you and see if you like fuck him hold on hold on before tell the listeners if I get an erection for audio listeners though before Jack does what he's about to do you've said the sentence do you get an erection when and then you're going Robbie can I do this to you so in your mind there's a potential chance he's about to get an erection with what you do to him I don't know if he'll if he's but there's a chance because you're saying you get an erection just confirm soft Soft, soft, soft.

41:45Okay, go on. Can I just preface this by saying this is not a sexual thing? It's just so, you know sometimes... We'll be the judge of that. Right, if I do this to you.

41:56You kind of just... What? Whatever that is, no one's ever done that to me before. That's not like a thing. The fact that you had to do it. That's play, you're play fighting. No, like, if someone gets intense on me, like, I panic and I get hard like my body gets tense you get stress erections but yeah stress I think stress gives me erections Robbie's had enough oh my god do you know what I mean no but I suppose it's also context dependent I reckon if Margot Robbie did it to me it might be different than if you did it to me in a podcast while Stevie's watching what if I wasn't watching oh yeah oh yeah i think the stress and anxiety like not anxiety but tension tension not the game but tension gives me erection sometimes how did you feel at the world cup no no no it's not like that it's more just the the physical stress of something so does that mean trivial pursuit would be operation because you don't want to be erect yeah i hate operation and hate it.

43:10How do you feel about Trivial Pursuit? Yeah, I like it. You get to flex your knowledge. Yeah, I don't mind it, yeah. I like a quiz game. I find I never played Trivial Pursuit that's been made in the last 15 years. It was always that really weird question about like Minder or some sitcom from the 80s or something. There's always an answer that's West Germany or something. When we went to that place for my birthday and played the darts, there was like a Trivial Pursuit version of darts, like a quiz one. and like we threw the first dart and the first question was like who won the 100 metres in 1986 and I was like what the fuck like why is that even a question yeah who's the current holders of the FA Cup it'd be like Port Vale but this is an electronic brand new dart system that only got made like six months ago and I'm like why the fuck are these the questions yeah so yes go still that we're still going Trivial Pursuit yeah I'll go Trivi I don't like pointless bonus Trivi P okay you don't like pointless bonus yeah okay final round before we go through to the quarters is connect four oh fuck it off versus battleships yeah battleships strategic fun yeah nice nice you sunk my battleship you can say the end as well that's good you got to say it in a kind of kiddy american voice you sunk my battleship it's the simpsons episode yeah you sunk my battleship yeah chess versus monopoly so we rattle through these now.

44:31We've spoken about them mostly. Chess versus Monopoly. I'll go Monopoly on that one. You've gone chess? Yeah. You hate Monopoly. I do. I hate chess even more. You could be a grandmaster of chess. Grandmaster of Monopoly sounds melty. Yeah, they both do. I'll change your tune. It's definitely not impressive to be good at Monopoly. Do you think it's genuinely impressive to be good at chess? Yeah. But you've got to be really good. You can't just be quite good at chess. which one's more enjoyable to play I've played a super super well known chess player before like one of the best Magnus Carlsen you'll know her what's her name now apologies everyone out there will be screaming it she's an attractive chess player everyone loves her

45:23I played chess with her once Fiona put a photo up fuck you Robin gonna put a photo up and she beat me in like three moves okay or like however many the minimum amount of moves see that doesn't sound enjoyable to play though no but I'm like that's fucking impressive because I'm trying to beat you I'm going Monopoly does that mean Monopoly wins a round? yeah 2v1 mate simple math I didn't know who said what I forgot Cluedo versus guess who guess wasn't that i thought that was the previous round no it was against mousetrap and guess who was against scrabble so now we've got cluedo versus guess who cluedo guess who i think i'd go guess who more enjoyable easy to play i'm having a stinker with robbie's new rules i think that's gonna make me really want to enjoy another guess who yeah alternative guess who goes through normal guess we would have lost risk versus the game of life never played either you two can take this one i'd go game of life i still love risk um pick one then uh just random yeah you i suppose you have to um teapot t-e-a-p no no you gotta think of you gotta think of the i we got 10 seconds each to give an argument sell yours it's about trying to give yourself the best life possible you can go to uni or you can get a job you can have a family and kids and a pet you can get a cat like Titch and then you die.

46:54Robbie, go. It's about taking over the world and just generally being like the big dog in charge of everything. Not just some pathetic little, oh, he's my life, but being like the big dog. Big dog. Grand wizard. Robbie won it. Big dog. You want to be a grand wizard? You just tried to fucking tell me I can have a cat, which I really like. Yeah, I was offering world domination. You're offering what he has. final round of the quarters is trivial pursuit versus battleships trivial pursuit yeah yeah completely agreed we're trying to get trivia p to stick here not catching on is it no okay semi-finals monopoly versus guess who gotta be guess who monopoly monopoly's so shit and we all said it was shit at the start for some reason made the same that's how it gets you though Monopoly.

47:41No one ever wants to play it and you find yourself playing it. I don't. But you've really reinvigorated my love for Guess Who. But think about how thrilling it is when you are the don of it and the dollars are coming your way. Yeah, but I like the speed, the fast pace of Guess Who and you can get loads of different versions of Guess Who as well. You could get like a football team as your Guess Who. Yeah, but that's not as fun. I like the standard. I think... Yeah, but it's funny if it was a football team. You could be a top hat or a dog or train. I'm going guess who. Guess who, yeah. What? Yeah.

48:14You were arguing again. Just wanted to win. Synthetic. And then the other semi-final is Risk versus Trivial Pursuit. Oh, this is the big... What are you wanting to see in the final? This is when you've got a World Cup and you've got the two good teams at the semis and some shit. Yeah, this is Argentina-England. Admit it. Admit it, Robbie. What? This is Argentina-England. As opposed to France-Spain.

48:42I mean, don't get me wrong, I love Dajuda Ringlands.

48:49Oh, I don't know. Why am I stressing over this so much? I'd go Trivi or Pursuit. I'll go Trivi P. Caught on. Caught on. Trivi P. Caught on. Trivi P. I never thought Trivi P would be in the final versus Guess Who. Yeah, that's mental. That is the final. Guess Who versus Trivi P. I mean Trivy P depends who you're with because if you are with people who are a bit smart you know the guys who play the pub quiz machines like semi-professionally yeah if you're with someone like that it's just a bit shit if you're playing it with Dara Ennis you are one of the fucking shooters out in the head but really all of these games all of these games you could say that though like what if I was playing Guess Who with Dara Ennis I want to shoot myself in the head I wouldn't say that you might I reckon I could beat Dara Ennis at Guess Who no maybe not Guess Who but I'm saying like most of these games if you're playing with other people who are really good at that specific thing it's not enjoyable.

49:41You mean I was really good at Guess Who? No, Guess Who's one of the outliers but a lot of the other ones if someone is good at the tactics of a game or whatever they're less enjoyable unless you're playing with people who are about as good as you. The best game ever by the way is Chameleon by Big Potato Games. Not an ad but get on that. Anyway, back to this. Sounds like an ad. Guess Who? Also, we're not fucking by the way. Guess Who? versus Trivial Pursuit. I'm going Trivy P. I don't think, guess who can win. It can. Trivy P. Oh. Trivy P is the winner of the board games. I'm so surprised by that.

50:21I don't even like Trivy P that much. Yeah, I'm shocked. I never ever choose to play it. I like this. That's why I like this format. Right. We spent way too long on that. What's your category, Robbie? My category? Well, I'm only going to say if it's me next. Oh, which one do we want to do? Out of 10, how confident do you feel in your category? Eight. Jack? This is the strongest one I've done. You've done what? How's the question? 10. Okay, so should I go first then? Save yours? Save the possibly best to last. I am doing tourist attractions. Okay, I like it. World tourist attractions. I like it.

51:02Around the world, we might not visit them. What you've done, when you do it, do you pick the match-ups? Because I've just done a list and I've not really thought about it. Random. I just put it into a generator. Oh, I've not done a generator. Do you want to just pick numbers, 1 to 16? Still works, same thing. Still works. We're your generator. Okay, pick Stevie. You will draw the home teams. Jack, you will draw the away team. Okay. Pick a number 1 to 16. I would like to go 3. Okay, I will go 15. I don't know how to then make this work to do it I'm going to bowl the ones that we've done Do you want me to write them down while we say that?

51:41Well maybe So three Taj Mahal Nice Versus 15 The Empire State Building Ooh Okay Okay well we were in New York recently It's hard to judge these without seeing them though isn't it? Yeah but we've seen them I've never seen the Taj Mahal You've never seen a picture of it? Taj Mahal, basically, I think it was someone made it for their bird. They were like, I've made this. Oi, close your eyes. I've made you this massive thing. I think that's what the Taj Mahal is. It might be wrong. That's doing too much, that. What's that guy doing? It shows us up. Yeah, he's definitely having an affair. Yeah. Yeah.

52:23I mean, if I speak a little bit out of line to Fiona at some point, I try and make it up to her by making her a cheese and ham toasty. Yeah. Vegan ham. He must have done something real bad. Yeah. He's done something real bad. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So I don't know the full story, but yeah, but it does look sick. I've never been, it does look sick. To me, the Empire State Building is this massive thing in films. Yeah. Is Empire State Building what King Kong climbs? Yeah. Maybe. Yeah, it is. So when we were in New York, I hadn't seen it the whole time we were there. And on the final day, I was like, I should see it whilst I'm in it.

52:57so I walked like 25 minutes just to go and look at it. And I got there and I'm like, so many buildings. I think it probably was good when it came out. Yeah. But now it's like a bit shit because it's not that big. I did like, I think on the old GTA game you could fly up to it and jump off it. Yeah. Found fun. Taj Mahal, my mate went there and said that across the, what was he saying now? Across the road from the Taj, like Taj Mahal, there's a woman having a shit. What, always? No.

53:32he said she just saw it

53:37she's busking it's like the norwich puppet man i think in america you see the empire state building and it's not in new york it's not impressive because everything else is so big around it i think if you were at the taj mahal it would look so much more impressive compared to the things around it i'm not going taj mahal I'm not I'm just not I went when I went to America on the way to Canada that emergency trip to America we were staying like opposite the Empire State Building we went to the kids I was at the Empire State Building they were like cool can I have a photo with 7-Eleven yeah I think I think the Empire State Building was probably a bigger thing to old movies and stuff it's lost its charm it's lost its charm but at the same time never hear anything about Taj Mahal anymore when I was a kid you learnt about it and beyond that I'll go with Empire State Building you never hear anything about What's Taj Mahal done lately?

54:28Not many of these have done stuff lately. Not in movies and shit, is it? I'm going Empire State just because I think it's in the Western world more iconic. I know more about it. New York's cool gaff. My mate really wanted... So Taj Mahal... Why have you picked it saying you're picking it because it's in the Western world? No, I just know more about it. I'm more educated on it. Why did you say that then?

54:52I don't want to go to India. Fair. okay i don't want to go from what i've seen and heard i don't want to go i went to india on my honeymoon yeah um and it was it was amazing like it was such an amazing experience did you go to we're in that area we're in kerala um but we were constantly shitting ourselves and one of us was at all points that's exactly we're all the whole time through we're going to be able to go oh it's been classmate what a wonderful country what a brilliant place and we're on the plane back and like in between like going to the toilets to have diarrhea and stuff like that we're going oh yeah it's a good one it's a good one it's a good one it's a great place I love the people so warm so friendly I just went great we're going to America but it's really amazing America's so good let's go based on that Empire State I'm going to yeah fine yeah okay next round Robbie I would like are you keeping track of the next round okay you just keep track of the winners I'll keep track of what we've done but we don't know your order so to make it easier I'll only pick from the first half and I'll go no you can No, no, no.

55:54Just go forever. Well, no, I guess I'm going 16. Okay. And I'll go one. This is good. This is a good one. So we've got Raw Dinosaur Adventure Park in Norwich versus the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Fucking hell. Raw Dinosaur Adventure Park in Norwich, for those of you who haven't heard it or don't know it, is actually class. Yeah. Fairly big dinosaur park with some animatronic dinosaurs. You do a lot of walking there. there's a lot to see, a lot to learn and then out of nowhere there's all these cables and stuff that you can climb up in the trees. Always changing, they've opened up a new, like this sounds like we're doing an ad read for raw dinosaurs and vegetables.

56:33I wouldn't mind. But they've got a, they've opened up, I just saw it on Instagram the other day, some kind of, I think the UK's biggest like, Zip wine? No, like tube, tubing, where you sit in a tube and go down some track. That's fun. See, that's fun. Which you can't do at the Lean Tower Pisa. There's like a big play area indoors and then there's just a random mini water park thing at the back where a huge bucket can drop water on your head and stuff. It's in the middle of nowhere in Norfolk so it's really unassuming. If you know, you know. If you don't know, you don't know. It's one of Norfolk's best kept secrets.

57:04I, all day long, am saying that Raw Dinosaur Adventure Park is better than the... Full name, please. Yeah, I did, didn't I? Raw Adventure... You just say in Norwich, which I called it, even though it's not actually in Norwich. Is that his name on company sales? We're calling it. Okay. I'm going to vote for Raw Dinosaur Adventure Park in Norwich to beat Italy's Leaning Tower of Pisa. What's good about the Leaning Tower? It's a tower made with faults. It's encouraging poor workmanship. If my builder came round and they fucked up my house, I'd have Jack's house. Like that's that. If you speak Leaning Tower of Pisa, that's basically like your Taylor Wimpy.

57:39Taylor Wimpy built the Leaning Tower of Pisa and can't be arsed with the photos of people trying to hold it up. That's not bad, if any idea. Yeah, but that's not unique. Everyone's done. in that. Yeah. Sit on it at least. You can make it a little different pretentious penis. Yeah. Yeah, that's fine and sitting on it, fine. Slightly to the left. Having said that, I've got a photo every four hours at uni where there's this dinosaur with big eyes going, and I'm pretending to show it my penis. So you can do funny photos with each. Well, you did this at Raw? When I was in like 21, yeah. At Raw? Yeah.

58:08I don't think it was even called Raw. No, it wasn't called Raw. I think it was just called the Dinosaur Park. It was called the Dinosaur Park, yes.

I'm going to be seeing one of these very soon I was going to say off to Egypt that's not going to be a funny joke I think I'm going to offend some people here I know multiple different people that have been to Egypt and they said they did not enjoy it I think was it Adam Radcliffe when we had him on we asked him what's the worst place I've ever been and he said he hated Egypt I think that's what he said it's the worst place I've ever been yeah yeah however in its defense i just went to the great pyramid the pyramids at giza and a couple of other places that were very touristy so it's probably like going around leicester square right going britain shit because growing up you think it's going to be like a beautiful majestic lands yeah right i just imagine desert everywhere and then pyramids but isn't it true that you can stand a pyramid and see a kfc you can i don't i can't remember that but it is you take the photos from one side looks amazing because it's like the desert behind yeah but the city just goes up to the pyramids basically right so the other side it's like oh just which is weird yeah it's weird but it's but it's it's like i don't know i didn't like it i found that it was just loads of people trying to rip you off but that's i'd like i am going back to egypt um in next month so um but i'd like to see stuff that isn't that i'd like to spend time in cairo that isn't around this touristy things to give it a better go but the actual pyramids they're objectively fucking amazing it's mad but you can also like go up people would like going up to them just breaking bits of the pyramid off if someone would go don't do that occasionally but it was like you can go up and touch them and stuff like that wow this was 20 more than 25 years ago how big's each block can you remember I can't remember they're quite the actual pyramids are mad and the sphinx is there as well yeah and all this stuff as a thing way more impressive than Sydney Opera House That's just a building someone's need.

1:02:06So it depends. Are you looking at the surroundings or are we saying it as just what it is? I think, well, because Robbie's called this category tourist attractions, right? So not iconic landmarks. If it was iconic landmarks, I'd go pyramids. But if you, to go to... I've called it that, but it's a bit, it's the same sort of thing. My thing is like, if we're judging these based on just how cool are these things, right? then the pyramids would win the entire thing, I think. But because it's named tourist, I'm imagining myself going there and being hassled by all the blokes trying to nick a quid. And I don't want that.

1:02:44What do you do at Sydney Opera House? Don't say go and watch an opera. Well, that's probably what you do. You can watch gigs there. Just gigs. Can you? Okay, so it's probably a more enjoyable experience if you go at the right time. And it just looks class, isn't it? Like for modern buildings, it's the big one. Is there any modern building that's more famous than that? Have you seen gigs there? I've never been to Sydney. Oh, okay. I saw gigs there. He brought out Skepta.

1:03:39I get it before you say it but I'm going to go Sydney Ops perhaps as well because I think it's unique in that it's the most iconic modern building. I've never heard a negative about Sydney Ops. No one's ever gone, don't go there. You're doing Is Egypt Good or Rubbish with Natasha Bedingfield, aren't you? Right, Geezer wins. No losers, big times. Yeah. Okay, Stevie. Two. Versus, let's go 11, Robbie, please. Okay, good. You've gone for, it's an interesting battle, you've gone for Edinburgh Castle versus the Forbidden City in Beijing. I know nothing about that. No, neither do I. But there's one thing I found out today when I was doing this.

1:04:23It is the most visited tourist attraction in the world. What? The Forbidden City in Beijing. It might just be because there's loads of people in China. Yeah, is it just Chinese people going? Is it just? You'd recognise it when you see the pictures of it. But in Raw Dinosaur Park... Does that count? No, but Royal Dunlap Park really is just Norfolk and Suffolk people going for the most part, isn't it? Yeah, but... But when you're in a place... They're still people, bro. They're all there already, aren't they? I'm saying no one's flying there purely to go to it. You'd recognise it. That's what it looks like.

1:04:52That's the Forbidden City. Yeah, I'm looking at it now. It's not impressing me. It don't impress me much. So it's a UNESCO World Heritage Site, which doesn't impress Jack. It's the most famous palace in Chinese history. Again, not impressive to Jack. and the largest preserved royal palace complex still standing in the world which Jack does not think is good. Give me raw adventure. That's not the battle we're playing. We're up against Edinburgh Castle which is class. Yeah. If anyone goes for first time to Edinburgh and sees Edinburgh Castle you're like, holy fuck because it's on the rock. It looks sick.

1:05:24You ain't getting into that mate if you're in the olden days. Do you know what my algorithm is on TikTok at the moment? Women with big tits on trampolines. Yeah. Okay, what's second? not on trampolines and then third is women with small tits on trampolines Edinburgh Castle is my algorithm is it? yeah I'll show you you think I'm making this up I do think it's the women on trampolines and big toes but yeah oh my god I'm so excited if he opens this and there's a woman on a trampoline very brave to go up and pop you've got to show the camera I'm going on reels I guarantee Edinburgh will come up within 15 okay right are you doing reels?

1:06:04I think you're doing four of you Paige two 3 Danny Boy shout out no don't shout out shit 7 8 this is boring sorry guys 9 that was an ad 9 10 shit 11 oh this is not looking good Kat and Bob Mortimer two great things 13 fuck oh what Europe will look like in four months 15 fuck 16 show me your fuel your page that's the real that's the real test of how much of a pervert that is. How do I do that? You click on the question mark. Go off of reels. Just click on the question mark. They're not the question mark. They're my magnifying glass thing. That. Turn that to the camera now. Quick, before you get to change it.

1:06:48Oh, disappointingly. What is it? Football stuff? I've got my husband's kink ruined our marriage. Okay, here we are. Now we're talking. I've got rating European cities. Top five gay and lesbian names. the top what are the top 5 gay and lesbian names a guy that goes around the world reviewing coffee oh uh top 5 gay and lesbian names yeah

1:07:20shall we just shall we try and think of one no I'm not touching this hang on I'm gonna try and think of a the only way this ends up well is if number 1 Stevie and even though it's like... No, because we're playing with fire because this woman's doing it, so it's on her, right? But if you... You write a sitcom, you're casting a lesbian. The lesbian is a butch lesbian. What you calling her? Liz. A male. It's just close to Les, isn't it? Why don't you call it Leslie then? Yeah. It's my mum's middle name. It feels wrong. All of this feels wrong. I'm going Ronnie What? For a girl Ronnie If you're a man Called any of these Or are you a woman Called any of these You are probably gay And if you're not After this video You might be Number one In the lesbian names Is Jess or Jessica If that's your name You're definitely a lesbian What?

1:08:17Why is this in your No it's not what I like It just comes up Look He knows what you like Five weird things To do after you die Sorry I really want to know the rest Because we can't just leave Jessica On the way just scroll to the end of it Chris is a gay name apparently Christopher's a gay name she doesn't even put the list on the screen so you can't just scroll through yeah you can't poor content there yeah she's shit yeah fuck her off so Edinburgh Castle or Vin City that was such bad pod in that yeah it was yeah awful I'd be way more impressed mad so disrespectful to the viewers yeah I've seen Edinburgh Castle it's very impressive but I think we're quite fortunate in the UK to see castles quite often.

1:08:58A lot of places go to the castle. It's one of the most impressive, but because I've seen things like that often, I'd be way more impressed going to the Forbidden City. I'd be like, fuck it, I was surprised. The fact is called the Forbidden City. Yeah, great name as well. I want to go to Edinburgh for Christmas, so I'm going to say Edinburgh Castle. I'm going Forbidden City. Come on, Scotland boy. Yeah, I love... Come on, Scotland boy. Love it, but... Put your tartan goggles on. I'm going to have to go Forbidden City. Fucking prick. Wow. Big lad. Big lad. Yeah. Scottish out in the first round again.

1:09:32Yeah. Yeah, it wouldn't be right if we went through. You've been grouped again. Yeah. Right, number, Stevie, number. Ooh, I will go seven. Seven, and I will go nine, Robbie, please. Okay. Good. Ooh, this is a local derby. The Eiffel Tower versus the Tower of London. Ooh, what a rivalry. Two towers. One big, one small. Is that a local derby? they're close to each other and they're both towers it's a tower derby tower derby yeah well I've famously said on this podcast when I went to the Eiffel Tower I looked down and thought big bit of metal don't care that's wank didn't really get it yeah it's not that big however I did not actually go to the bit everyone's meant to go to what how can you go to the Eiffel Tower and not go to the bit because out the front of the Eiffel Tower there's done this lovely lawn and it looks all nice I came from behind it where it's just all buildings and shit but it looks the same as a thing but everything looking going up to it looked shit so that probably gave my opinion to be a bit worse paris is shit mate i think paris is one of the worst places paris is shit i thought paris is shit i still think it is then i went with someone who lives in paris and took me to places they're good and like paris is fucking brilliant i was in paris a couple of days ago paris is class not for me not for me for me tower of london wins hands down why what's the good things about london sick don't it and people used to get beheaded there and that yeah that wins is that good it's got a good history to it isn't it like I am not educated we're probably pissing I'm pissing so many people off but I'm not educated enough to know what the history of the Eiffel Tower is it's just the tourists no one's ever done anything there have they?

1:11:09don't think so people just get engaged there don't they Tower of London had a purpose didn't it? yeah did we do something where someone died jumping off the Eiffel trying to fly off of it yeah actually that was good not good that he died but that's it's interesting it's interesting that is the story behind it the photos or something or video or something. He tried to create, there's a video of it, you just need to hit the floor. Yeah. He tried to create his own parachute coat. The Eiffel Tower looks just like steel scaffold. And the Tower of London looks like beautifully arsed. It's exciting though.

1:11:35Like when Becky and I would film that video in Paris, she said they'd go, oh, it's the Eiffel Tower really exciting. Then you tell that you can see the Eiffel Tower from everywhere so it lost a bit of the magic. It's bigger than the Tower of London. And I like when it It's taller. Flashes up with lights and shit. It's quite cool. Yeah, but they're dicks about that because they're like they'll like tell they'll like do copyright claims for the art or stuff like that and things like it like people aren't allowed to take photos or films or something of it oh because of the like because of the light show or something like that it's weird shit fucking Tower of London yeah Tower of London yeah we literally did a rant about how much we hate French people a few episodes back and now we're doing this okay I'm gonna go shall I tell you what's left yeah 5, 8, 10, 12, 13, 14 8 8 versus 13 please Robbie Okay.

1:12:21Jack's lucky number. It's another, well, it's the CN Tower in Toronto. Okay, yeah. Versus the Palace of Versailles, again in Paris, too in Paris. Palace of Versailles. I don't know what it looks like. Paris of Versailles is, I think, it might be the second most visitor tourist attraction in the world. It's definitely top. I've never even heard of it. It's a big palace. Palace, I'm looking at it now. Can you see it? It is sick. I've never been. It looks like Bath. Yeah, from the outside it does just look like. it's like bath the inside looks incredible yeah oh that's nice yeah what the maze and stuff yeah the maze-y sort of lawn huge gardens yeah the gardens look nice the building looks meh it does look good and what's this tower in CN Tower oh yeah I've seen that CN Tower did you go up it when you were in Toronto Jay?

1:13:12no I didn't go up it mate it's good that there's a glass floor that you can walk on it feels like whoa what's the point in it? big tower mate okay don't they have something like that in Seattle as well yeah I think there was a time when the CN Tower was the biggest thing in the world again it's like Empire State has it had its day yeah yeah that's the Seattle Sky Needle which looks a bit like the CN Tower a lot like that actually yeah but it's nowhere near as big if I was to go to one of those I think I'd be able to spend more time at the French one I'm going that one Robbie just because I think if I vote for the CN Tower I think it's weird because it's not too dissimilar to the Eiffel Tower.

1:13:50It's just a long thing. I'm thinking of it this way, Jack. Yeah, much bigger. Eiffel Tower's like... If Jack wants to go to the top of that, lift. Yeah. You'll get a lift. Most of these are. I've been up the Burj Khalifa. That's in a lift. Do you know what? I'm not actually that scared of them lifts, weirdly, because they're often glass, so you can see out. Isn't that worse? Nah, not at all. I'm not scared of heights. Oh, I was in a lift you fucking hated the other day. Go on. Really? Like one of those really old narrow ones where you have to pull the door open, and it's really tight. Where was that?

1:14:18in an apartment in Turin. No, I wouldn't have liked that at all. I didn't think at the time about Jack and Ake there. Yeah, you should have seen the video. We're going Palace of Versailles. Versailles. Yeah, okay. And then last... So we've got 5, 10, 12 and 14. I'll go 10. Versus 12. Okay, so we've got the Kremlin versus Machu Picchu in Peru. Oh, this is somewhere I want to go. Kremlin. I really want to go Machu Picchu. Yeah. Have you been? No. Would you go? Yes. Okay, let's go. We're just not going to do that, are we? Probably not. We're going to go to a pub in Norwich. Machu Picchu does look very cool.

1:15:02And even when... Kremlin looks cool. I know Russia's not in favour currently. But Kremlin's class building. It is tourist attractions. Not too sure Kremlin's going to win that one. The Kremlin makes me feel sad when I look at it. Go on. I don't know. I get it. Do you? Yeah. I don't know. I just think it's like, it could be such a great thing, but it's just, I don't know. It just, it makes me feel like when you go back to like an old theme park when you were a kid, but the rides are tiny. Like you think they're big when you're, it just gives me a sort of weird sort of like, you know, sometimes nostalgia can be good, but sometimes bad.

1:15:46Like if I go to Yarmouth and I see the snails, I go, shit, no, yeah. And that's how that makes me feel. Weird. Okay, you get nostalgia for the Kremlin. Every year, Bev and Arlo go, and the snails never, we've got a fridge magnet, we've got a fridge magnet for all the different years. Right. See, that's cute, and I used to go on them, but I just see them now. Maybe Arlo will be like that in the future. What don't you like about the Kremlin? Never thought I'd ask that. You know, the last bit was bad, Pottig. We're in a golden era of it now. What do I like about the Kremlin? I like the Kremlin. I think it does have a sort of certain slightly, like, oppressive feel to it, isn't it?

1:16:23It's a bit like the whole sort of communism sort of slightly... It's like when travel vloggers go to North Korea and they film and it's just like... They're like, that's so cool. Is it? Because everyone else is living a horrible life and they're trying to make out. I was going to say we can't not let one of the wonders of the world win, but we quite literally did for the pyramids, didn't we? Yeah, but I'm going Machu Picchu. I'd go Machu Picchu. I think it's a nightmare to get to, though, isn't it? I watched Russ Cook do a video on it. Yeah, I think it's tough to get to. Yeah. It's tough to get to the Kremlin currently.

1:16:52Yeah, true. Does that make it worth it, though? Yeah, I think it would be worth it, because I think the juice is worth the squeeze with that. It's a once-in-a-lifetime thing, isn't it? I think it's as old as you think Machu Picchu. How old is Machu Picchu? How old is Machu Picchu? It is 600 years old. Yeah. Not that old. Not that old. Because I've been to Chichen Itza in Mexico, the Mayan ruins, and that's like 2000 BC, that's crazy yeah 600's not that like they were probably just finishing that when you were born yeah yeah that's it yeah because I remember it okay last one because I think Machu Picchu's getting a clean sweep is it there yeah Machu Picchu's winning that one so the last we've got 5 and 13 Steve you pick the home team no Jack said 13 a minute ago yeah 5 and 14 sorry I'm going to go 14 okay so at home is the Coliseum up against the Great Wall of China oh two big boys two big dogs two very big dogs oh my instinct i want to go coliseum i think well jack jack like the beheadings in the tower of london there's a lot of death in the coliseum love the battles in the coliseum i think wall is wall where you can see the space they always said that that's fucking impressive that is cool but it is also just a wall big wall though man yeah big wall but like man-made trump wanted to make a big wall it's a man-made wall it's man-made what what opposed to what the natural how many natural walls are well we don't know if the pyramids are made do we i don't think they just appeared could have been allans could have been the vaccine

1:18:29i naturally want to go coliseum i think i think you'd feel something inside the coliseum like with all the history of it and then on the wall i'd be like i'm just walking along a wall Can I ask a question? Because I don't know much about the Roman Empire and shit. Like, when this was going on and people were killing each other, was it celebrated or was it like, oh, we shouldn't be doing this? No, they were loving it. They were loving it. Yeah, it didn't take me. Go along, get another Colosseum, mate. Ah, look at that Christian getting eaten by a lion, class. Was it poor people that would fight or what?

1:18:59I think they would get Christians in to fight lions and shit. Which is not. I'm not endorsing. Yeah. Don't think we should do that. again woke wouldn't they also get like people who just thought there were class in there I think there were lots of things going on weren't there like gladiators who were like training up because what I'm trying to work out is it two willing participants that are trying to not always no the lions weren't going to be willing it's problematic now yeah a lot of these things were I think pyramids were probably bad little Britain was great at the time never really liked it I see your point yeah but Coliseum is Rome's little Britain.

1:19:42Yeah. Coliseum same as the soccerette. Not aged well. If we lived in the time we would have loved watching it and hoped we were never involved. Yeah. But there's still places in the world where people go along and watch executions. It's boxing. We have boxing now, don't we? That's the modern day Coliseum. People go and see people in Saudi Arabia will go watch executions Jack and Steve not for me imagine that fuck it up Jesus I'm gonna go Coliseum Coliseum I think ignoring all the morality behind it it's pretty cool yeah enough times passed for us to go wow yeah if we went now when they stop though how long there you go there's another Google for you well I reckon but I've been long gone in it.

1:20:32I reckon... Go on. 200 AD. 100 AD. 100 AD I'm going to go. What are you saying? When was the last time the Coliseum was used for killing? When did the Coliseum stop fighting? Oh, 404 AD. Yeah, it's cool as fuck. Yeah. We're good. Okay, play on. Right. Sorry, wall. So, in order of... We'll just go down in order of when we did them for the next round, please, Jack. First two against each other. Okay, so do you want to... Would you like to read them? I can read them if you want, mate. Yeah, I don't mind. Ignore my spelling because I can't be bothered. It doesn't matter. I won't even mention the spelling, depending on how bad they are.

1:21:08Right. So it's the ones in brackets that won. Okay. Confusing, right? Okay. Empire State Building versus Raw Dinosaur Adventure Park in Norwich. I'd love to sit here and do the bit and say Raw, but it has to be Empire State Building. however does it though I said first round I went and saw the Empire State Building I had a better I literally looked at it and went cool walked away Raw Dinosaur Park spent hours there and I've been multiple times once again if you have the choice of going to Raw Dinosaur Adventure Park or a photo of 7-Eleven my kids are picking Raw Dinosaur Adventure Park are they?

1:21:46and they didn't pick that for the Empire State Building I'd go Raw I'll have a better time at Raw I am surprised how well Raw Dinosaur Adventure Park is but I'm going Raw yeah I also kind of like every now and then you see a van just drive a lorry driving around Norwich and it has a dinosaur on the back. Yeah. Because it's going there. Raw. Raw. Okay. We're raw dogging it. Good. Sydney Opera House versus The Forbidden City. Ooh. Don't care. Not an option. What? Why do you don't care? Two I'm like meh about. I'm going to Australia. I'm not that bothered about the Opera House. I think you have to see it though.

1:22:22I'll see it. I'd love to see Sydney Opera House. Yeah, I think Sydney Opera House, I can picture having a great time in and around it. And I think with the Forbidden City, I'd specifically want to go and see that and then not care too much beyond that. And also, again, we're saying it's the big dog of the modern world. I'm going to Sydney Opera House. I'm going to Sydney Opera House. Forbidden City in the mud. Yeah, I'll take it. I googled Forbidden City, didn't rate it that much. Okay. Tower of London versus Palace of Versailles. You've given up halfway through and just done dots. Versailles.

1:22:54Yeah. Versailles. okay Tower of Versailles versus Tower of London Tower of London I like the history of it I like the fact that it was a bit gruesome a little bit too big yeah we're happy with a bit of yeah murder murder back in the day Palace of Versailles I think I'd enjoy my time more at the palace like the gardens and stuff look lovely to walk through yeah I mean it's hard to say because I've been to Tower of London but I've not been to Palace of Versailles if you've never been to London and you're going as a first time viewer you're gonna really think it's sick you're gonna go wow the grounds are cool the tower the bridge There's a pub in the Tower of London that we can't go to.

1:23:27Only the beef eater guys can go to. Really? Yeah. That's class, isn't it? Yeah, that's a video, isn't it? Well, you can get taken along. If I can make friends with her. If you're a beef eater and want to take me to your pub, I'd like to go to your pub. Mental, they're called beef eaters. Imagine if you're a vegetarian and a beef eater. You'd never stop talking about it, would you? Big vegetarian.

1:23:52I'll go Tower of London if that's the way you're swaying Tower of London then yeah because of the pub Machu Picchu I said I wouldn't mention the spelling but Christ he's made it one word versus the Coliseum oh this is a big clash this this is an early clash this is Japan-Brazil Coliseum much older yeah Machu Picchu's disappointingly youthful which didn't count against Sydney Opera House It's in this no man's land of age. For that reason. But you expect it with Sydney Opera House because it's kind of like an architectural marvel. If you tell me Sydney Opera House was made last year, I'd go, believe it.

1:24:28Yeah, exactly. But with Machu Picchu, it looks so old. But the fact that it's not actually does mark it down a bit. I think I'd go Coliseum. Are you not entertained? Coliseum wins. Yeah. And yeah. So, semis. So, semis. Dinosaur Adventure Park versus Sydney Opera House. Okay, this is the closest I think we're going to get. Like I love Dinosaur Adventure Park. I can't load it again. No, I think Sydney has to win this one. Sydney. It looks so class. I mean, Dinosaur Adventure House, it's got good stuff in it. So Dinosaur Adventure Park in Norwich has got lots of good stuff in it. But Dinosaur Adventure Park in Norwich isn't that great when you approach it.

1:25:09When you're walking up to Sydney Opera House, you're going, fucking hell, that's Sydney Opera House. You're not going to go, fucking hell, that's Royal Dinosaur Adventure Park in Norwich. That's true. If you went up to a random American and went, I'm going to give you an all expenses paid holiday. You can pick between these. I'm sending you to Norwich to go to Raw Dinosaur Park or Australia to see Sydney Opera House. Yeah, but they also got guns and shoot each other. You can't trust them. Yeah. If you go to... If you ask a Canadian... Yeah. Oh, yeah, let's go Sydney Opera House. Sydney, yeah. Sorry, Raw Dinosaur Park.

1:25:35Sorry, Raw. Adventure Park in Norwich. That's our brand deal ruined. Tower of London versus the Coliseum. Oh, there we go. You've got your history in both of these, Jack. This is brutal history versus brutal history. Yeah, brutal history derby. Horrible history. Murder derby. Coliseum for me, mate. I think where else in the world had something like that? Do you know what? They're killing people in the Tower of London, but they're not doing it for fun. No, they're criminals. Coliseum, they're just going, let's fucking get that. I don't agree with that guy's religion. Let's throw a fucking line at him.

1:26:05Not instant death either there. You're watching full entertainment. And then they're doing that thing, the bit where they've got their thumb, oh, do we rescue him? Yeah, we like him. Really? They do that thing, wouldn't they? They'd have a thumb and they'd be like, oh, are they going to save that guy? Are they going to let him die? They go, he fought well. Thumbs up, yeah. Or thumbs down, he gets killed. Whoa. Really? Yeah. Caesar had his little weird glasses as well. Don't you know, that was cool. I had to bring opticians. Is that the boat that invented the salad? Yeah. Yeah. No salads before then.

1:26:34People just look at Lettas and go, what do we do? Yeah, Coliseum. Coliseum, we have our final. Okay. So sad it's not Dinosaur Adventure Park versus Coliseum, but we've got Sydney Opera House versus the Coliseum. I think there's one clear winner. You know which way I'm going. I think Coliseum. I think the age wins it. Think of it this way. One's 404 BC, Theatre of Warriors and Champions and Death. The other one's cinema. I think Janine saw the vaccines at Sydney Opera House. She's never seen them at the Coliseum. You can't. if the vaccines are played, you can't... Nothing against... It was a while ago.

1:27:15Yeah, nothing against... Nothing against the vaccines, but we can't have a tourist attraction win where the vaccines can play them. Yeah, we saw... The vaccines... They're good.
