Is that Joseph? Horsif. Horsif. Horsif. Jose Peter James. The reason Sam can't say any of my fake names correctly is because we're both hungover.

2:50I know. We drank together. We did. We did. Sam actually was pushing the drink. It wasn't me. It was actually Sam last night. This is Monday's episode. So you'll be able to watch this on Josh's YouTube channel on Wednesday from 5pm. And then we'll be doing a bonus episode which comes out on a Thursday audibly which you can watch on a Sunday. which means that you can catch us on a... Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Sunday. There will be swearing if you don't like it. Go f*** yourself. Rate, review, do all of that sort of shit. You know the score by now. The reason we are both hungover is because we had our book launch last night.

3:26Yeah, we did. We are authors and influencers now. I don't think we are influencers. We didn't really influence anything. Yeah, we did. A few did loads of stories. Did they? Yeah, we've got loads of stories coming through. See, I haven't seen them because I don't follow any of the people that were there. Yeah, that was bad. When Pete came up, we're going to talk about this later. Pete stood up, did a speech, went, I don't know who any of you fucking are. And then he went, and then he went, do your fucking stories and fuck off. Yeah, I actively disliked some of the people there. But hey-ho, it was what it was.

3:58There were some nice people there. Oh, it was great. It was really nice. We had a flipping good time. And actually, shout out to the team because they made an amazing event. The team did very well. It's the first time I've had dinner in a shed. And it was a lovely shed. Really, really nice. It's a greenhouse. A greenhouse. That's the one. No, it was very nice. Aesthetically very pleasing. And that's what we've realised about influencer events, right? Because we probably want to throw one a year, I suppose, now, don't we, Pete? No, I don't ever want to do it again. Well, we talked about maybe. We didn't.

4:30I thought maybe we should. You thought, yeah, yeah. Every year, like mine's Halloween party, I feel like every year will grow bigger, bigger and bigger. So we're going to throw a little party every year, I think. Every year we're doing a book launch? No, but just a party. Just a party. I just quite like the idea of sort of like us hosting something together like that. We kind of caked together, Pete. What was your favourite part of last night? My favourite part was the beginning bit, getting people lubed up at the start. Because Pete actually turned up a little bit late. And that was actually in the plan.

4:57What I wanted was for Pete to walk in. Yeah, I'd just like to point out that I was told what time to be there. And then actually, I got there on time. You had to wait around the corner. And then I was held outside of the event that I was paying for in the street cold. Because I wasn't allowed in. I wanted when Pete walked in for everyone to be wearing Pete Wick's masks. That was weird. I mean, that was genuine. Because, like, firstly, when they took the masks off, I still didn't know they were. That was the best bit. Pete didn't know who any of the influencers were who were wearing Pete Wick. So they whack it.

5:31So they go, he walks in, it's like, surprise! And then they whack off. and you know normally in surprise birthday parties when like oh mate yeah everyone whacked it off and he went who are you?

5:44No idea Beginning was great got people lubed up with a bit of YMCA Well I mean yeah that is the bit that I'd like to touch on first and foremost Do you enjoy it? You had an idea of what you wanted to do for the night YMCA I don't get it It was good it went down a fucking storm Well, it went down a storm for the first verse and chorus. And I thought, well, that'll be it. And then you carried on with the young men. I don't think we needed the second verse. I don't know. I just. Because everyone at that point had gone, yeah, YMCA. And then they'd all kind of sat down and then you carried on. And oh, we're still going.

6:24It was a weird way to start. I did notice the energy levels dropped on the second verse. And I went, fuck, I've gone too far now. I have to finish it. Well, yeah. I mean, you knew you went too far because you shouted for help from your sister. Louise. Louise, over to you. And she just buried herself in the thing. No. But yeah, it was, it was, it was. Oh, it was fucking great. We had tequila shots, mate. We had, we had sex toys. Right. Okay. Yeah. Let's really good two points there. Let's start on the tequila. So obviously it was in a greenhouse, a lovely place, but there wasn't a bar. so we had to go to a shop because Sam wanted tequila to buy bottles of tequila which Sam then paraded around in front of everyone and forced everyone to drink tequila but the what was the other bit that you just said?

7:15I'm still drunk

7:20Sam that was the have you followed through? that was disgusting that was fucking awful Sam that was really bad No, that was so bad. That was like YMCA all over again. The fucking, the arse fucking air shit you just did. Didn't need a second verse either. I'm really hungover. When I get hungover, I feel it in my stomach. Yeah, we can hear. What was the other thing we talked about? Tequilas and... What did we just say? Tequilas? God, this is... How was this a podcast? Tequilas and what? Or was it that we were talking about tequilas? Sex toys. Nice, Josh. That's the man who doesn't drink. Josh is listening.

8:06So the sex toys. So originally we were going to hand everyone, because we did influencer boxes. Yeah, we did. There was candles and a book and Sam's one of them in a jar. And your chew chewing gum. My chew chewing gum, which I just want to point out wasn't mine. The team had to chew chewing gum and then put it in a jar, which is a weird way to spend your fucking time. You might have got a Kiri. You might have got a Pippa. You just don't know. and then yeah Kira supplied all the air shits for the jars I don't know I don't know what's happening we just we just loaded her up and just let her go it was like a production line going on I don't think I don't know if we can get a pod out of this can we keep going keep going I just don't know I'm going to be honest with you this is a struggle this one normally it's alright if I'm hung over but But when you are as well, I don't think we're even having a conversation.

9:03We're just talking to ourselves. We're trying to explain what happened last night. It's a little bit in between. We did speeches. Oh, my God, we did a speech. That was fucking fun. And Pete did a reading. That was great. Pete didn't know. You also did a reading. Yeah, that was annoying. Basically, halfway through the event, they had finished their main course. I thought this was the perfect time. I had a little bell that I'd ding my bell. An actual bell. I dinged my bell and to get everyone's attention I basically just out of nowhere just went hi guys I think this is the perfect time Peter Wicks is going to a reading from the book and Pete didn't have any ideas so he's just sat there going no no no I'm not and it took the entire room to go Peter Peter and he stood up and had to read an extract from the book yeah and I don't really know how it went down to be honest it went down really well you were very good at reading it yeah Thank you so much.

10:00And then you read a little extract. I read a little extract myself. Which was nice. So they got a little glimpse into it, into what the book was. Obviously, there was loads of TikTok-y people there. Yeah, yeah. We had some really lovely people there. The Famile were there. They're a TikTok family called the Famile. Why? Well, there's probably, I don't know. Is that their surname, Famile? No, it's if they're called the Famile. Oh, that'd be what it is. Their surname's Lay? Yeah, there you go. Oh, I see what they did. They're so clever. They're lovely. The Dan and the two sons, they're a fucking good crack and I needed them for the YMCA.

10:37Which ones were they? The Dan, the older guy and the two... Yeah, got ya. Really nice, lads. Then there was a couple of other little lads on my table. Max Harvey. Because we had separate tables, yeah. You were sat next to who you sat off sit? Oh, let's just give them a moment, shall we? Paul and Phoebe. Father and daughter. What's their TikTok name? Putok. Fucking love them. They're really nice. Fucking love them. We met them at a biscuit event. Not a joke. A while ago. And he's just the funniest guy. I love him. So anyway, the sex toys. Originally, we were going to put them in the influencer boxes.

11:14But I thought, you know, rather than, you know, force people to take a sex. It's a bit weird going to an influencer event. And then Sam and Pete hand you a dildo and force you to take it home. So we just did a bucket. We had some knicker vibrators. Well, yeah, we did a bucket full of sex toys and there was Nicker Vibrators. Yeah. I can't even say it. Nicker Vibrators, yeah. There was them. They went, by the way. That was what I found quite interesting. People were taking the piss, right? So they're delving into this before you arrive. They were like having a little look through the bucket. They're like, oh my God, no way.

11:44Like a Nicker Vibrator with a remote control. Oh my God, who would want that? And they'd just take it. I'm not going to name names, but three of them were taken before Pete had even walked in. Yeah, Helena was there. producer Pippa had decided to not work that evening and place herself on the table, which was interesting because the entire team were working, but she just decided she was going to sit next to Bree from selling sunset. Um, and proceeded to stay and get quite pissed. Uh, you did. Yes, you did. Well, let me just put this into context. First of all, uh, the team did a fabulous job. They did do a fabulous job.

12:18I hope you enjoyed your meal deals in the alleyway. Um, because they weren't allowed to sit down for the dinner because we didn't have the space. However, Pippa found a seat. old Bongo's Bingo's number one influencer over there. She found a seat. How was the evening for you, Pippa? Let's just talk through your experience of your first influencer event. Yeah, it was an honour. Thank you for the invite. Staying relevant. You invited yourself? Yeah, really appreciate it. Did you do any stories? Yeah, I did, yeah. Did you tag the book? Yeah, I paid my way. No, I tagged the book. No, you didn't. We paid your way.

12:53And I love Bree from Selling Sunset. and I love Paul and Phoebe from Pew Talk. Yeah, because you were sat next to those two. You gave yourself the best seat in the house and exactly where you wanted to sit, didn't you? Yeah, and opposite Leanne from The Traitors and now I know everything about how it's filmed. Okay, go on. What can't possibly say? All I remember from that is apparently I would be, what do they do? Kill me or something in The Traitors? Yeah, they said everyone thinks P would be murdered first. Leanne said he'd be like so bad at it. Really? We thought you'd be really good at Traitors.

13:23Well, apparently it's because I'm not trustworthy. Just said, like, no matter what he does or says, you would just banish him. So I'm glad that she enjoyed the event. I'm really pleased that she was there. Obviously, you know, massive, massive fan. But yeah, the whole night I thought went really well. So do I. I thought it went incredibly well, actually. A little bit of a hiccup near the end, but we're not going to talk about that. but what was good is the night ended on a lovely note we had a cake that we cut together which is really beautiful that moment I'm going to be really honest with you I didn't really understand that I didn't really understand why we were holding the knife and cutting the cake together I've been to a few influencer events never seen that I've never seen the YMCA I've never seen a bucket of sex toys I've also never seen a non-influencer sit herself there just for the gossip and I've also never seen them cut cake like a wedding Such a staying relevant event, I fucking love it There was parts of it that were just slightly odd Shall we talk about your alcohol problem?

14:38What do you mean? I mean, at one point, you sat down for about half an hour and then you kind of just repeatedly came out with trays of shots. Do you know why? I'll be honest with you. I felt like you were potentially a waiter. Yeah, but I felt like one. I'm fine with that. I'll explain my thought process. I've realised something about myself after last night. I'm like a really nervous host. Like I want everyone to have the best time. And I'm like, they need shots. They need shots. They need to be more lubricated. They just need to be relaxed. And so like I just thought it'd be a really nice thing to always keep them like drinked up.

15:14Whereas at these events, what you're supposed to do is sort of talk to people and ensure that they have a good time just through the power of speech. I don't know. Sam did it through the power of tequila. Well, it's just a few people were like, oh, it was actually a few people on our table like, should we have a tequila? I was like, oh, do you know what? We'll get together at the other table. I think it might have been Bree that started that. Yeah, Bree from Selling Sunset can put it away, by the way. Oh, there was a gaffe about the latex. I am sorry about that. I embarrassed Pete in front of Bree from Selling Sunset.

15:43Sam's got this weird thing and we'll get on to Sam's weird hand movements that are, you know, slightly inappropriate at times. Sam then went, oh, it must be very hot whilst just sort of rubbing his hands over, not touching her, just sort of like, like Reiki. Just kind of over, which was a slightly odd moment. You didn't really know how to handle her, did you? No, do you know what? It's because it was just a lot of latex and what I meant was you must be sweating. Yeah, but again, you're doing the hand movements. It's not great that you must be sweating. yeah but I just couldn't I was just like in awe I was like wow that's got to be like pretty intense yeah pretty hot I think she thought I meant you look really hot whilst gesturing like that and then Pete literally had his head in his hands he was like get away from her yeah it was it was an interesting event let's put it that way shall we I think it was a fucking success I really really do I think everyone who came had a really really good time you know there were amazing speeches cake cuttings as Pete said no one does it like a staying relevant party and I don't think anyone will ever do it again like that.

16:45Until we do it next year. We learnt a lot. But I think whilst the whole team are here, big well done to all of you. I think you should give yourselves a round of applause.

16:56Very well done. Also, a big shout out to Captain Morgan because we had our very own personalised bottles of Captain Morgans. Yeah, that was actually great. Captain Sam and Captain Pete bottles. Jelly Cat provided us with some stuff. Say it. With Jelly Cats. No. What? Some jellies. Yeah, with jelly cats. Why are you having to put the cats in the end? Because I can't. That word is physically repulsive. Jelly cats supplied us with a bunch of jellies. Did they get taken as well? What do you mean? Were they in the influencer boxes? Good. So there's a lot of people waking up this morning with a dildo and a jelly cat.

17:35Thinking, where did I go last night? That's so true as well. How have I come home with this? what have you got I've got a dildo a jenny cat and a book so yeah listen oh sorry just forgot to quickly just say Pete at one point told everyone to take the stories and fuck off which was that was near the end and then the worst thing is we had to cut the cake after that so you can imagine after everyone's just been told to do the influencing and then fuck off and then told to sit back down because we've got to cut the cake the silence there was when we were cutting into quarters. I mean, also, there wasn't really an end to the night in terms of...

18:18I don't really know when the event ended because people sort of left over a period of about two hours. So suddenly people were just slowly disappearing to the point where I left before other people. But it was all for the release of our book. Oh, yeah, there was a point to it. Yeah, sorry. It wasn't just sort of a random sort of get-together in a greenhouse. But this isn't the only thing we're going to be throwing. Oh, no. we are going back on the road the O2 is done but we are not we're going to do some live book shows in Liverpool and Birmingham and tickets for these shows are across our socials and the link is in the episode description as well you might see some familiar faces as well yeah we are doing two nights and judging by the reaction to that some of you quite disappointed you know you were disappointed in the room in London now you're disappointed in the room in Liverpool and Birmingham next time and next year what we're going to do if you send all your addresses, we'll just come to your front door and perform because we have all the time in the world.

19:14And what are people saying, why are you not doing it in London? Well, why are you not doing it? Well, sorry, there were sort of 16 ,000 tickets available for that just two weeks ago. So we've moved further up, but not quite far enough up for some people. So I do apologise to those that are above. We're in Liverpool. I don't know how much more north you can get. Quite a way. Well, unless you're going to Scotland. Well, yeah, but you've sort of got like, you know, Newcastle and all those sort of areas. So yeah, listen, if you don't want to travel, don't. But please do. Anyway, it'd be a good show.

19:47Can't wait to see you all. Mate, we've actually, me and Pete, we've been like attached to each other's waists all week. I've seen you every day. Yeah. It's Wednesday. It's three days. Yeah, maybe we did Pride of Britain on Tuesday. Monday. Monday. So yeah, so book show, get the tickets. There's still some left. It will be very good. and you get a book with it as well. It's a book plus ticket. But yeah, let's Pride of Britain. Sam and I hosted for the third time on Monday. Tandem bike ride up there. Still just one word, tandem. Tandeming up the red carpet. Sam spent the entire night calling it a tandem.

20:24But it is still just a tandem. Tell them how we got up there. On a tandem. Yeah, that was fucking weird. Why? But what's the significance? because it's just a fun way to enter the red carpet it was a fun way to enter the sodden soaking wet red carpet um to the point where i i was quite worried that we were going to fall it was a health and safety risk i'm going to be honest with you the old tandem bike wasn't it mate it was a uh i thought we were riding the bike and i turned around and pete's just got both legs off straddling the back seat and he's just plodding his way up the red carpet well Because I had gone with a theme in mind for the Pride of Britain.

21:07I'd gone as some sort of throwback from the 70s in a brown flare and a velvet jacket, which I didn't want to ruin. Sam had just finished selling a couple of houses at Zoopla. I did feel criminally underdressed. Did you? Yeah. I thought you looked fine, man. Thank you, man. I appreciate that. A lot of people say I look like an estate agent. There's no shade in the estate agents, by the way. But yeah, I feel like maybe I could have done a little bit better. Yeah. Just peace to the estate agents. Let's not start any beef. What I do notice about when you wear a suit, especially when you don't wear a tie, is that the beads look even more out of place.

21:42Net beads. I mean, they're just wild. I mean, you've been told numerous times and you're still persevering with it. I don't know if you're just doing it because we've all said they're awful. Someone on the carpet said that they looked like they were teething beads. Yes, that you give to a baby. That hurt my feelings a little bit. Did it? Yeah. Still wearing them though. Oh my God. Actually, quickly, talking about red carpet. You know, there's a fucking TikTok that's gone out. Apparently about like me and Amber Gill having like beef. This part of the podcast is sponsored by Autotrader. Our friends at Autotrader.

22:20What are you doing? Oh, I love her. I have a gold envelope. This is scary. Oh, it's like I'm on Top Gear actually. What do we got here? auto trader staying relevant i've got a note hey sam we heard you and pete like a fun challenge so we're asking you to use the auto trader app to pick a car for pete to pick a car for pete we want you to find something that suits pete's fiery personality but of course you know him best so we will leave it up to you we'll see you soon at the top secret test track psp is choosing you a car from Autotrader. Oh, mate. Oh my God. Sorry for screeching into the mic. That's so cool.

23:04I get to pick any car. Oh my God. That basically fits Pete's personality. And we get to drive it on the track. Mate, that's wild. He's going to do me over here. He's going to get me the way he's going to, he's got to try. Pete's got to try and make, and actually like get me like a nice car. Before I jump in, though, actually, I need to have a plan. What are Pete's mannerisms? He's aggressive. He looks angry. He looks like we need to get a car that looks angry somehow. He's stylish. Let's give him that. Got to find him a car that sort of suits his image, I suppose. He likes motorbikes, though. He needs something quick.

23:39He needs something rapid, but not so rapid that it beats me. Oh, okay. Well, he's quite stingy as well. He's a little bit tight, our Peter. Oh, Pete likes retro things. He just looks old. So we need to get him an older car. We'll say it's because he likes retro things, but actually he just looks old. Get him like something classic, something from the noughties maybe. So an angry, noughties baby, stylish, fast car for Peter. But now I'm doing this, you've got to make sure he doesn't do me over. Right. It's time. Now, I know Pete's a fussy man, so it's great that Autotrader has so much choice. They're the UK's largest car marketplace.

24:19I can find him something here. So I'm going to dive into the app right now. Okay, age, select a year. Minimum year is 2000. I know Pete likes a sporty car as well, so I'm going to filter body type. Right, so obviously I know that Pete likes a Porsche. He likes BMW, he likes a Ferrari. So we're not going to get many of those things. We're only going to get one chance drive around this track. I don't want him to actually be driving something that's quicker than mine. So we're going to go coupe. Is it coupe or coupe? Is it coupe? Coupe. Coupe. Done. Body type. Finished. Engine size. Big. Max engine size.

24:55Engine power. Max engine power. I feel like I also want to get him like something that's just like a little bit, you know, I don't want him to stick out too much. Let's give him a gray car. Give him something gray. I can't imagine Pete driving a gray car for some reason. Okay. Search. Oh, my God. I mean, Pete would love this. This is an old school Porsche. Absolutely beautiful. We've got Ferrari, but I'm not going to get him Ferrari because I don't want him to look that cool. there's a nice Nissan here, actually. Right. After much deliberation, and can I actually just quickly say, you can literally get any type of car you want on Autotrader.

25:32Wild. There were thousands I was just going through there, so fair play on that. Anyway, I've found Pete's car. I genuinely think he's going to love it. I've been really nice to him on this, so he has to be nice. You need to make sure he's nice to me. He needs to return the favor. But I'm not going to tell you what I've chosen in case Pete listens back to the podcast because I want it to be a surprise. So you guys will have to keep an eye out on the YouTube channel for the big reveal and you can watch our test drives on the top secret track. How unreal is that? Well, me and Pete are going to be racing these bad boys on a track.

26:12Yes. And obviously a massive shout out to Autotrader. Thank you so much for this. I am so excited. Giving us this challenge as well. And after having a look through the app today, they really do have an incredible range of cars for literally everyone and every price range as well. So if you get the urge to change your car at any point, then it is time for AutoTrader because, wow, did I just see so many cars on there. Download the AutoTrader app today. And I cannot wait to see you on the track with both of our cars. Yay. No. I really like her. well this is your chance I didn't feel that at all we'll put the record straight you know I'm really sorry no yeah it was just a load of bollocks wasn't it a load of shit I had no idea I had genuinely no idea and I watched it this morning and you know you just don't know what's happening you're like what the fuck is this what was your favourite interview of the night favourite interview of the night was the ITV fundraisers yes nice 3.2 million 3.2 million raised and Pete went right Sam run from one end to the other end because there were so many of them and we were like we're going to get names for all of them.

27:19We managed to get every single one at the time limit. I like that. Well done. Nicely done. Sam, yeah, it was good. Meeting Marcus. That was really nice. Marcus was incredible. Yeah, really. And we got to present an award. Yeah. Let's, let's, the presenting of the award, it was Sam, myself and Anne-Marie. Let's just give a little shout out to Anne-Marie because she's firstly hilarious. Such a funny lady. And such a nice person. However, I don't think they'll ever let the three of us work together again. um that was so before you go and present an award on stage um they take you into like a back room and they give you sort of like the they show you actually the vt they're going to play and we were lucky enough to be giving it to marcus who we got to meet on the carpet beforehand and um so we like watched the story it was really beautiful and then you go behind the stage and go right what you're going to do is amory is giving out the award sam's going to say something pete's going to say something and then you're both going to do some autocue bits.

28:13For some reason, we couldn't figure out how to get on stage to the point where all of us, I would say, Pete, really got confused. No, no. What I would say is I listened, I knew what was happening and then the children didn't then confuse me because you were so convinced that I was wrong and in the end, I was right. but after 15 minutes of worrying who was going to walk on first, who was going to say what, who was going to hand out an award and changing positions, bear in mind, there's only three of us 15 times. We worked out how to walk on stage. That was the first problem. I love how we're so mad.

28:54We're literally turning to be every five seconds ago. I don't know what we're doing.

29:01To the point where, you know, when the same gets to that point, same gets, it's really weird. You know, you can go on stage and, and, you know, danced a mysterious girl in front of 15 ,000 people. Handing out an award is nerve-wracking for Sam to the point where he shit his pants backstage. Anne-Marie said, I'm going to say that on stage. And I went... She was joking. She was joking. I went, you should. And she went, I can't. I went, no, you should. She did, which was nice. He's such a bad friend. He's such a shit mate. Like, I'm back there, right? Just farted, a bit done another spot. I actually owned up to him.

29:36I was like, look, I'm really sorry, Anne-Marie. I have just no no no I tell you what it wasn't like you physically owned up to it we all looked at you as as the noise continued to come from your arsehole so it's not like you couldn't then go well it wasn't me whilst we were all staring at you doing it I'd never also like I'd never been in that close proximity Anne-Marie before you know like like well we're really good mates now and then she goes she goes how funny it would be if I mentioned that on stage I was like oh yeah yeah Pete deadpan and went, I think you should do that. And I was like, no, don't, don't, no, no.

30:11And I could see the cogs turning in her head. And she was like, that could be quite funny. I was like, don't do it, don't do it. And she was like, how am I just going to go up there? I went, what you should do is say, I'm so glad that I'm on stage now because it stinks back there. He's just farted. Verbatim, word for word. Keir Starmer was there. Yeah, then Sam went, oh, wow. Oh, Keir Starmer's there. So that was odd. But the whole night, we love the Pride of Britain. Yeah. The whole night is amazing. I can't remember how many I've done now I mean we've done a lot we've done a lot but it is genuinely one of the best nights in kind of the calendar yeah the NTAs are the only red carpets that we do yeah but like I think the Pride of Britain I think is a it's a more special one isn't it because the whole yeah with the meaning behind it and stuff and you get to interview all the winners because that's the thing we get to do the winners at the start and that's the bit where you actually like really delve into it and then you know afterwards you've got a sort of celebrity Yeah, like once you've spoken to the winners and all the people that actually matter, because really like everyone else doesn't really fucking matter, do they?

31:13But all the winners and all the people that are kind of nominated and all the people that are there, once we kind of have an opportunity to speak to them and meet them, which is amazing, then you kind of just fuck around with all the idiots that turn up. People like us. I am really disappointed though that I didn't get to see Flory. Yeah, where was Flory? She was inside. She had her own little station. We were meant to see her. Yeah, well, because by the time we'd finished and done everything else, I think she'd gone. Was she at the tea station? No, she had Flory's Fun Fab Zone. Fun Fab Zone. She had her whole own little kingdom.

31:49We're actually going to be asking Flory for some tips because we got to interview a range of people, some of which I have no idea. Flory was interviewing the Prime Minister. Shut up, no way. But no, it was a great night. There is some behind the scenes of this coming up on the YouTube because Pippa and Josh were also there. Yeah, they were. They got backstage passes. Yeah, like passes. And then they got told off. We thought we'd got them in. They got backstage passes and then caused sort of a security alert by leaving their sort of rucksacks just loitering around in certain areas where people running up and down the red carpet.

32:26And that's not even a lie, by the way. We literally, me and Pete were about to go live. The explosives dog was going mad. Mate, I was about to get on the tandem bike, right? Tandem. The tandem bike. And the security guard runs up to me and goes, is that your team's bag up there around the corner? I went, yeah, it is. He went, you're going to have to move it because it's becoming a security breach. Security breach. I'm literally about to go, they're literally going, we're going on in a minute. I go, Pippa, Pippa. And you're literally there just soaking. You are an influencer now and it's actually getting, it's grinding my gears.

32:56Well, to be honest with you, you know, it wasn't just us interviewing on the red carpet because Josh and Pippa seem to have set up their own little tag team where they were supposed to be fucking filming us. No, they went off and interviewed their own fucking people. How did that go? We were on Shirley Ballas' main grid Instagram. No way. Pippa is on Shirley. Is Josh in it as well? Yeah. Pippa, well, the back of Josh's head. Yeah, still there. Yeah, and Pippa. Pippa just interviewing people is in the back of fucking Shirley Ballas' fucking Instagram. Oh, my God. Mate, do you know what happened just outside?

33:29literally today, someone comes up to me and goes, oh, Sam, can I have a photo of you and Pippa? Pippa literally goes, get in the middle. Get in the middle. You said that. Like she's done it a million times. I didn't say that. Pippa goes, get in the middle. Come on, of course you can. We've created a fucking monster. We've created a monster, mate. We've created a fucking monster. She's in the view and Pippa. So basically, you should sit here then. How was your week? Because Pippa's done the same as us. We interviewed on the red carpet, went to an influencer event. sat next to Bree from Selling Sunset you've done it all fucking made best mates with fucking Bree from Selling Sunset you literally took we had cards on the table at the book launch saying to become an influencer she read them, took notes and fucking did it all Pippa actually asked me last night if we could produce her podcast what do you think?

34:20honestly actually the amount of people who've asked us to do a podcast are behind the pod what do you mean? well we don't need to because we've got staying relevant the morning after. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Hosted by someone's child and a couple of other people. Kian. Did they all turn up this week? Kian. Yeah, well, I think the other one was still ill for a couple of episodes. I've not heard the most recent one. Not dead, is she? I don't think so. She's the producer. So who's producing it? Kian's really holding the fort. Who's producing it currently? I think Kian. Josh and I are going to go on as guests.

34:56No, you're not. Yeah. I haven't told you this yet. Yeah, I said we would. Sam, are you listening to this? We've genuinely created a monster. She's now booking herself as a guest on other podcasts. So what? We were asked if we would go on as guests, and I said we would. Why have you just prompted Josh to agree with you there as well? Am I just, like, taking you like a taxi driver? Or am I actually on it? Also, I have noticed this, that unfortunately we do have a female heavy workforce. Josh is basically Uber. Yeah, he's the carpool. Josh is the carpool. She sits in the back. Josh is the same relevant driver.

35:31Bippa sits in the back of Josh's car, by the way, when he drives her in. So fucking weird. You're a fucking princess, mate. So fucking weird. You're a diva. Whilst we are talking about listeners, obviously the morning after pod, apparently Pete Ix is back. Pete Ix is back. And this one I actually felt quite bad about because you really like this. Because I don't understand this. No, look, mate, you like your pistachio latte. But that is what some of the listeners are saying. They have an ick. Yeah. Forgot about them. Go, queen. Like, I have no problem. Yeah, slay bitch. Like, I have no problem with you drinking a pistachio latte.

36:07Well, what's the... Potassium nitrate. What is wrong with having a... What is wrong with having a potassium latte? Well, I don't know, man. I don't see any problem with it. You're jiggling your... So why is that a problem, though? It's because you're jiggling your ice around. You're doing it in proper queen style. What's the issue with... Is it what the drink is or how I drink it? It's just the ice. It's like a matcha latte, like this and yap around the pond. Well, the problem is that I have quite a lot of coffee in the morning. You look like you should be having an espresso. But I do. I have quite a lot of coffee in the morning.

36:38So before I leave my house, I have, as we've discussed previously, quite a lot of coffee. I don't think I've had enough today. So during the day, I sort of ease out of the coffee. I sort of start hard and then kind of finish with something slightly more creamy. I just can't imagine Pete like standing up that wasn't a great sentence I can't imagine I start hard and finish with something more creamy can anyone can you imagine Pete though standing at the counter being like I'll have a pistachio latte please extra ice I don't have to I'll send Annalise yeah what's wrong with that though so is it the drink or the way I'm drinking it it's the drink it's the straw it's the ice it's the shake of the ice I'm going to be honest with you oh wow doing impressions now are we Kira I do struggle with straws my depth perception because the lazy eye isn't great so I'm not entirely sure where the answer go and for some reason I don't just bring it in so I have to I'll go over the top I don't understand why I do that the fact that people have picked that out as like your ick is so I feel like people are so in tune with like the peak they have in their head at the moment he deviates ever so slightly from it it's like oh no oh no we don't like that I just yeah listen just let me fucking live and enjoy my life Flip-flops, everyone goes mad.

37:55Oh, like, do you know what I mean? They're called a big fucking thing. Fuck off. Do you know what I mean? All they say about you when you change it, and you've literally changed your entire, you're a different human to last year, and people just go, oh, I love to glow up. I suck on a straw. Fucking, what's he doing? Fucking absolute liberty. I just like the way he did the cross-arms there as well. Fucking no. Get him off on the pistachio latte. Sam, your new dyed hair and new face look great. Oh, update on that. Has she got some salmon sperm with producer Pippa? Excellent. Well, you both went together.

38:31She's a fucking influencer. It's fucking mad. She's fucking lost it. She's fully lost it. It'd be nice if you could spend some time at work producing. It's fucking mental. Now we're stacking it all up. Producer Pippa's side hustle is producing because her main job is just being a fucking influencer, bitch. It's fucking mad. She's got more fucking brand deals than we have. Anyway. Pete, you said here on this podcast last week that you were going strictly again. Yes. And that you were going to sort of hide away from the cameras, back of the room. You're going to really just sort of really blend in with the background.

39:18Obviously our listeners have seen that and I'm inundated on Saturday with Pete front and centre, right in front of the camera in the main seat, whooping and cheering again. How did you get from I'm going to go at the back of Strictly to front row? Well, I said that's what was going to happen. And then I turned up and then they shuffled you in. someone's they said let me take you to your seats and you come in from backstage and took me around the side bit and then I started walking and as I was walking down towards the front I was thinking oh no oh no I had the best seats in the house yeah you were literally I was in the middle of the dance floor in the front row I literally got bullied bullied by everyone they started chanting before it fucking started what was the chant?

40:13I'm Too Sexy which was amazing it was great because we had Stuart you know the the Walmart guy obviously saw me there and decided just to rip the shit out of me told me my trousers were too tight and that everyone could see my religion to the whole crowd and I was is he wearing the PVCs yeah yeah yeah look who's here like you know someone who didn't make the final great and there I am sat front and centre the camera in my face non-stop again I don't know what to do. It makes me so awkward. It genuinely makes me so awkward. Then they did a link with Tess and asked me to sit next to her and JB. I didn't realise that it was a link.

40:54Have you seen the video? Trying not to make eye look straight down the camera is the worst thing because rather than looking straight down the camera, you just start looking around. It looks like I was chasing a fly around the room as Tess was speaking. But you've come on leaps and bounds, Peaks. I remember two years ago when Zara did Strictly and the camera was fully on you there. And you were trying, you didn't know what to do and there was just my hand tugging on you and you were trying to elbow me away. Yeah, so behind Tess as she's doing the link, I've sat there with one of the matching fucking shirts on.

41:29Sam's not actually in the shot and I'm just sat there trying to look like... And then you can see from the side someone go... and me go fuck off it's the back of the camp it's so good I want to find that clip I think we should put that clip up it's so great but yeah so that is my second Strictly trip this series how many more do you think you've got in the locker hopefully not many yeah number two well

Yes Because a headline this week is Obviously you know Journalists don't do journalism now They just listen to theirs Sam Thompson terrified to introduce new girlfriend to Pete Wicks after hard launch So it's good that you confirmed the hard launch I am on the edge of my seat I'm waiting for the call up When will that be taking place?

46:41I just don't know if I can do it Just don't know why is that first of all I just when do you introduce Pippa when do you introduce Pippa you don't need to introduce Pippa I know her you wouldn't even want to meet anyone that I'm dating tell yourself that mate do you want to meet people I'm dating no no Sam did invite me out on a double date at the weekend. I did. It was him and his friend and Peep and his respective friends, Peep, and just me. So I declined. Peep. I declined the dinner. It was sort of an invite that was thrown out there because he said he was going to see me and then made it a double date.

47:34So then I said, am I still seeing you later? And he went, yeah, yeah, it's me. It was Jojo. me, Jojo, Jojo's girlfriend and Peep you're more than welcome now what that says to me is come if you want but it'll be weird and we don't want you there we don't want you there it's not true because we're going to be lovey-dovey feeding each other at the table and all the rest of it and it might be weird for you to sit there you know I know you're sad, lonely and depressed so it might be too much for you. No, it is. We were actually, we had invited two other friends and they had dropped out and that's like, so there were more people.

48:18No, Pete was always invited. Pete was one of the first invited to this Sunday roast. He was one of the first invited to the Sunday roast but then the other people who Pete knew who were going to be there and weren't with peeps and stuff like that like had dropped out so then it did just become a double date. How many wishes that I'd gone and just sat there? I would have loved that. I would have loved that no I don't think you would why well because it sort of would take away from the the kind of romance because I know I know what you're like on a date what do you mean by that I mean what stage are you in currently what's going on give the stages of Sam to this pod well we'll start with the love bombing and best thing since sliced bread couldn't do enough for them, you know, taking them, you know, buy you flowers and walking through the market and let's stop at food stores.

49:12Just a nice date. Just so, yeah, it's a lovely day. And, you know, we're going for tapas every week and, you know, yes, let's go out for dinner and do all this. Give it two months. I'm too tired to go out. Should we watch Harry Potter? Although you have done that. I think Sunday, actually, she got a glimpse of Sam because Sam was having a Harry Potter marathon. If you watch this story, I'm not saying people's there. but Pete was there. Before they went for a Sunday, very wholesome. Yeah. Because presumably Saturday night. Went to the cinema on Saturday night, watched a horror movie. Went to the cinema, watched a horror movie together.

49:50Why are you fucking, why are you scoff? Got some pick and mix. You want some popcorn? At the bottom of that, he's cock. Yeah, yeah. No, no, I didn't. I didn't, but I have heard that that's what happens. Yeah. So cinema, then, you know, and obviously, you know, they're not at the stage where she stays the night. so she went home, came back early Sunday morning for the Harry Potter marathon and Sunday roast. Certainly hasn't got a wash bag or anything there. Fucking hell. Pete is like that dad. Pete, you're going to be such a funny dad. So look, you know, you are dating. I think it's clear now. Are we just admitting that you're currently dating?

50:34Yeah. Okay, great. So how were you going to ask her to be your girlfriend? I just Will you do it Like Love Island Are you gonna No mate There's not even a There's not even a Chat There's not even a Chat Sort of an Aeroplane No do you know Peep be mine Flying across Fucking Chelsea Harbour It's not even that Do you know what it is It's really There's no pressure And that's the beauty Of it Yeah There's no pressure There's no time frame It's just Do you know what the Worst thing about this Is that like If she sees this I could get canned Like next week oh we can't go through another break up not this year at least wait till next year darling I mean what kind of what sort of stage do you think that will happen I mean where are we at with it mate I don't know everything's just super relaxed you know what dating's like you're just enjoying it there's no time frame there's no nothing and I wouldn't even know what to do Pete realistically if I were to ever ask someone out I wouldn't even know how to do it I'd panic I haven't asked someone out in years like would you be mine No, no, okay, that's honestly, okay.

51:37Okay, that's a no. I've got a legal contract here that says that I own you.

51:44You are now property of Sam Thompson. This is where you will stay. In the worst week. You will be fed three times a day. Bored. And I will supply you with the odd bunch of flowers. Oh, my God. You are now mine. I fucking own you. No, so I wouldn't know what to say. So not would you be mine, but would you be like, and like, would you want to be in an intimately serious relationship with me? Maybe. And sorry, wait a minute. Let's, let's just start. An intimately serious. I don't know. I don't know. Explain that. Just explain those two words together for me. Because intimate is you're doing things together.

52:30So, oh, sorry. An intimate, serious, serious relationship. Well, it would just be an intimate, serious relationship, not an intimately serious. Oh, right, okay. Because that's slightly confusing. So would you like to be in an intimate and serious relationship with me? Yeah. I kind of prefer I own you. But if I'm honest with you. What would you say? How would you do it? I mean, I just sort of, this is a thing, isn't it? Yeah. What's a thing? What if she went, what's a thing? You know. What does that mean? Well, it just kind of leaves it vague enough for me to walk out and go, well, I didn't confirm.

53:11How far off getting her name carved into the kitchen cupboards are you?

53:21Just had them redone.

53:26Reshuffles the mic. I don't know. I just wouldn't know how to do it. I wouldn't know how to do it. I just, would you, me and you, let's just, me and you. Me and you. Me and you, let's do the thing. Let's just intimately be serious. Let's just, no, I just, all right, we just sit there and be like, okay, let's say you're a girl. And I'm like, would you be my girlfriend? That's all right. It's a bit cringe, but. I don't, in all honesty, I've never done it. Would you do like, do you do like a thing to ask someone to be a girlfriend? When you're an adult, do you still say, will you be my girlfriend?

53:58Yes, I don't think you do. It kind of makes me feel like school. Yeah, same. That's the thing. So I just wouldn't say anything. I just let it roll. So you're ready together then? No, no, no. Well, you've just kind of let it roll. So you might be. Maybe she thinks you are and you don't know because you're not at the conversation. That's the danger, isn't it? So how do you have the conversation? Well, I don't know because if you're just letting it roll, you may already be in a relationship and you just don't know. Well, look, the good thing is that everything's just very relaxed, which is great.

54:23Yeah, I mean, it's good. Well, listen. Taking it away from me, I mean, look, what's the most full-on one you've seen? Candles on a beach. Filmed. Yeah, sort of, will you be mine in fire? You know what I mean? With the videographer stood there wearing linen. Linen, has to be linen. Those sort of things. Yeah, just kind of not... The thing is, if you do that, I just think just do it for yourselves. I think that would be quite nice if there wasn't sort of a full film production crew there. You know what I mean? And the videographer who's thrown out. You could get the team to film you asking. This is kind of...

55:09That's my girlfriend. This is kind of... Oh, my God. This is kind of where I'm going with this. I feel like, you know, when you see these sort of things and, you know, people make these big gestures and they have to hire people, you already have a bunch of people here who already work for you. I'm not asking the team to fucking film me well Sam as a little surprise obviously you know the Monday meeting one of the things on the agenda is how are we going to ask Peep to be our girlfriend so we're going to brainstorm together there is sort of you know a good few of us because we just want to make sure it's right for everyone you know we all need to be happy with it it's a binding contract so we are going to brainstorm what the best ways for you to do this are.

55:56Hopefully she's not listening to this and we can really surprise her. Would you hire a videographer or photographer for your wedding proposal? No, to be honest with you, I'm that toxic. It's more likely that if I got married, I'd hire them when I tell them I'm leaving because I feel like that reaction would probably get... More views. More views. No, it's just not for me. String quartet? Sorry? String quartet? No, not for me. neither what are the baby crying no that's that's the strings stop prodding the baby on your shoulder with a stick that's the strings no I don't think that is strings no no string quartets I wouldn't have you know the the the what do they call mariachi mariachi pants yeah would you literally just get on one knee then and be like well sorry the guy sorry the guys with the fucking tiny guitars going hey Macarena Sorry Wait a sec What's the song Everyone always sing Carriac Carriac No what is it What's the song What's the song They're not called a mariachi What do they sing What do they sing Mariachi bands are like Three Mexican men With like sombreros on I don't think they're Renowned for proposals I love you I love you I love you very much I don't think that's a thing What's the song They always sing Terrible What's the Well I think they sing a range I don't think No but there's that one They always fucking sing When they're going around People's restaurant tables No Oh I'll remember it Do you know what a cucaracha is?

58:34Oh, sorry. Don't film this.

58:39The X strikes again with his pistachio latte. I don't want to offend anyone. All my straw's stuck. Oh, anyway. No, I don't mind them. When you get the proper ones, I think they were with all the gear on and the sombreros and yeah. Nah, bollocks. I'm sorry, I can't see it. I can't, I know no one believes that. I know you look at them and go, fuck off. No, I'm like, give us another one. Not a chance. Give us, do it again. Give us three more. Give it again. Then you get up actually and sort of like, and they always give little rose and that to your missus. Yeah. Yeah, love them. That's how Pete's proposing then.

59:15I did want to ask though, to be fair, you know. Yeah, please be fair. Well, look, we're both in the dating game.

59:27That's not quite what it says here, is it? Now that your dating days are behind you. Now that Sam's dating days are behind him, he wants to run through some potential red flags that he's encountered along the way. I just wanted to ask you what you thought, because you're my best mate, right? And your opinion means so much to me. So I wanted to see if, like, what you think is a red flag. All right. So never applies. And be serious about this. Don't just be like, oh, it's good to do it to you, right? Never applies to text messages. Not interested. It's a red flag. Well, yeah, she's not interested.

1:00:03You just got to say red flag. Oh, right, sorry. Okay, ready? I didn't quite understand the game. Not interested. Okay. Doesn't send voice notes back. Not interested. Sorry. Well, no, no. That's an amber flag. Amber flag, okay. Because she might be like me and is sort of a grown-up so doesn't need to voice note all day long. Okay. All right. So explain why never texting back is a red flag. If they wanted to, they would. Yeah. Okay, interesting. Smokes pack a day? Sign me up. Okay, so green flag there? Yeah, like, you know, she'll die quicker. So smokes pack a day, you'll call her? Yeah, that doesn't bother me.

1:00:43Okay. And what if they said they don't like coming around to your house? They just don't want to come around. For me, green flag. But in general? Stay away. Depends. It's very hard because there's no context. Yeah. Why don't they like coming around? Is it because you're forcing them to watch Harry Potter? What is it about coming around? You don't know. They haven't told you. They just said no. Then I would ask a question. Yeah. But also, I don't really like going to people's houses. No. Especially if you're early on in dating. Yeah. You know what I mean? I know you use sort of a couple of steaks and then it's move-in time.

1:01:19And then they don't leave the house for... So you say amber flag on that one? Yeah, I think there's context behind it. If there's a reason, it's either that or they're just not that bothered. Like I said, if they wanted to, they would. Okay. Sprays too much perfume and smells too strong.

1:01:39I mean, I would say green flag. That's someone that is conscious about the fact that they want to smell nice for you. I don't see that as a bad thing. That's someone making an effort. Yeah, you might have gone over the top, but you've made an effort. And I appreciate that. I'd rather that than you be a dirty cunt. Okay, that's a really good point. Can't function without coffee, like actively moody without their coffee. I'm okay with that because I'm similar. So actually I don't mind that. Coffee fuels a lot of us. And I don't see that necessarily as a bad thing. Also, I don't see being moody as a bad thing either.

1:02:07We all have good days and bad days. And, you know, I think that's actually okay. So I would say green flag. Green flag. Okay. Takes the piss out of appearances. Oh, well, if it's of themselves. No, of their other, the other half. Out of me? Yeah. I actively, that would make me hard. No, but as in like takes piss out, like puts you down. Puts me down? Yeah. Again, I'd be harder. Puts someone else down, not you. It depends on the situation. No, red flag. Red flag. Okay, cool. Where's a lot of leather? Where's a lot of leather? Yeah.

1:02:46like a lot of leather yeah I'm out like a lot of leather do they look good in leather they look alright but I think they think they look better than they actually look in leather so they're like leather's my thing if that's their thing then listen I accept them for their thing okay fine loves jelly shoes

1:03:10if they love them then great I don't think that impacts me. So, green flag?

1:03:19Triggs pistachio lattes. Well, so do I, green flag. We've just named you in every single one of those things. Oh, very funny.

1:03:32To be fair, I mostly green flagged myself, actually. You literally green flagged yourself. Oh, were you hoping for me to just basically state that I'm a red flag? Well, fuck you, ****. But do you know what the first two we got away with? And then at the moment he started getting into smoking, it was literally like everything after that was just green flag. And he gave such a good reason behind all of them. Well, if you like it, fair enough. Fuck. That's just so nice. How did I not even pick up on that? Oh, yeah, I mean, yeah. Where's loads of leather? Take the piss out of my sinning hair. I said appearances.

1:04:08Because he would have got it if I said thinning hair. I don't think I would have. I was so locked in there. Trying to work out what was the green. I quite liked it. You gave so much content. Yeah, give me more. What else? We haven't got any else. I think we're done. This has been like a three-hour fucking deal.
