Welcome to Staying Running the Podcast, hosted by two bestest of best pals. We are 10 days in to seeing each other every single day. Me, Sam Thompson and Peter James. Jonathan James and Wicks! 10 days. Yeah, we are 10 days in. I don't know if I'm allowed to say it but women you know their cycles kind of match and all that sort of stuff Sam and I we now colour coordinate on days accidentally every day of filming we'd almost come wearing the same thing for no reason today we've turned up all in black because it is mostly the death of our friendship and career based on the past 10 days so yeah make sure you rate reviews all of that sort of stuff you know the score by now there will be swearing in this if you don't like it go f*** yourself This is the main episode, which comes out Monday, which you'll be able to watch visually on Josh and Kira's YouTube channel from 5pm on Wednesday.

2:26And then we'll be doing a bonus episode, which comes out Thursday audibly, which you can then watch on Josh and Kira's YouTube channel from 5pm on Sunday, which means you can catch us on a... You can catch us on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and a Sunday. We did something very, very fun this week as a team, actually, didn't we? We all did something. We can't talk too much about it. You're going to see it very, very soon. but we had a staying relevant team day out last week. We can't, as I said, reveal exactly what we're doing. Well, we can reveal some things, Sam. And I'll tell you why we can reveal some things.

2:55Not only am I filming a TV show with Sam and a podcast with Sam, now I'm on team day outs with Sam. I can't get away from him. Now, you can tell by the way Sam said that, we had a team day out, didn't we, team? It was so fun! But you are the only one that thought so. Mate, Colin, you had a good time. Do you know what? I had a great time up until about midday. I was in high spirits. I think the whole team was. You weren't in high spirits? Yeah, yeah, yeah, until midday. Well, because in the morning, you were very tired, quite quiet. We just got on with stuff. Then Sam got a second wind. And that's where shit took a turn for the worse for everyone included.

3:39Should we? Let's start with Pippa, all right? because it's not just me because I know everyone just thinks it's just me always moaning. Team day out, everyone would assume that that's a really fun day out. You know, colleagues we are. It's not just, you know, we are friends, but we are colleagues. It was work. And listen, we have a lot of fun at work. What we've also got recently is HR. Pippa, do you want to tell everyone what Sam did to you? Sam farted and shoved it in my face. No, you can't say it like that. You can't even shoved it. Okay, how would you say it? I don't know, cupped it. No, no, no, no, no.

4:16And I'll tell you why I know you shoved it, because I wasn't there. It's because I've seen the video. Now, the video was a member of the public who filmed Sam in the street, just walking along, right, and caught him farting in his hand and then shoving it in Pippa's face. I got a DM the day afterwards in the morning going... You don't know this, do you? I'll wait to see the fucking video yeah I've got it on me wait can I read you the message as well she's she's absolutely rumbled the shit out of me the odds on her catching this by the way are absolutely nuts she called Macy lovely lovely Macy she goes might have accidentally caught you on video farting in your hand and putting in Pippa's face today in Whitstable any comments Sam and then sent me that video.

5:12And it's, she's just, she's basically just like being like, oh, that's Pete and Sam. And she's literally, she's like got her phone out. No, no, no, no, don't have my name and I weren't fucking there. No, but she said, Pete actually was not there for that part of the day. Right, she's gone, that's Sam. And she's got her phone out and she's filming and she's talking to a friend being like, oh yeah, no, no, no. And then as she zoomed in, she just happened to catch me farting in my hand and putting it up to me. He reaches his hand behind him. I know what we were talking about. We were walking along discussing like how the edit of this branded vlog we were doing like that we were all there filming like it was a work conversation god forbid and i'm walking along discussing like how it's going to come out and stuff and then in the video he reaches his hand behind his back puts it by his ass in like a cupped motion swoops it around the front of him and shoves it into my face and we just carry on walking after it's happened which is the worst bit because it looks like it happens all the time pippa didn't even recoil she's anything she lends it so listen this um do i mean couple of questions and they're not just from me um they have come from hr do you think that's appropriate do you know what do you think that's appropriate yes for pippa yes i do for pippa i do you're like my sister we do these things you fart on me i fart on you it's just what we did famously all the time it's just to get caught doing that it's like but other than that I was in good form I feel like as the day one I did I started a little bit like tired and Pippa actually came up to me at the start and went it's a bit sad that you feel like so quiet she was like you're bumming me out because you're so tired and then you wanted me to charge up no no no no no no because what she didn't want you to do charge up was let's have some sort of normal fun what Sam thought normal fun would be what do you constitute as normal fun like you just have a laugh for your mates like you tell jokes hang out you know that sort of thing what you don't do what you don't do I don't mean like knock knock Pete what kind of jokes did you tell I don't mean like knock knock jokes but I mean you just kind of you just have like a laugh tell some jokes you know where everyone's kind of in what you don't do is go don't worry I'll drive and then go, I'll tell you what, liven this up.

7:31I'll emergency stop in the middle of the road whilst you've got the entire team in the car so everyone's got whiplash. That, to me, sounds like only one of us is having fun because at that point, that ruined my day. For the rest of the day, I could barely contain my rage, and this was only halfway through the day. And what we also had to do, right? So at this point, I'm not happy about this, right? And I think Pippa's safe to say you weren't happy about that either. No, I didn't like the stop at all. Kira also I don't think was happy about that. Annalise loved it. Annalise, over the moon. And I'll tell you why Annalise was over the moon, because Sam and Annalise spent the day just repeating quiff.

8:21Queef. queef not quiff queef they spent the entire day and that is the funniest thing that's ever happened to anyone apparently all right there was no context it was just how are you queef i'm good queef slay queef non-stop for the rest of the day and that and and that was as fun as it got all right but so listen it all got a lot we were all in a confined space and the moments that we were let out of the confined space, I just walked off and took myself kind of away. But we all had to then resume the confined space for the journey home. Silence. Well, wouldn't that have been nice? Oh yeah, no it was!

9:06Wouldn't that have been nice? The two hours. But in the meantime, during one of my periods of alone time, Sam had found a shop. So Sam thought, I tell you what would be a great idea, because Pete's in a great mood at this point, after I've given him whiplash, I'll pop to a shop and I'll buy a microphone for the way home.

9:27So after what had been a 10-hour day, I'm driving. From Ken, it was so far. In rush hour on a two-hour drive home with the entire team in the car. And Sam decides about, I don't think I'd left the car park before that whacked out, an echo microphone to which he sang renditions of Backstreet Boys and a range of songs and just changed the odd word to queef. For two hours. Tell me queef ain't nothing. For two hours. He then, I'll tell you, Josh wasn't with us. Josh, luckily for him, was in another vehicle. But he might as well have been with us because they also spent, the entire team I'm not just blaming Sam for this because Pippa was also an accessory to this crime just calling Josh to ask how his day was we'd literally just left him I called Josh three times and then made sure the entire car spoke to him I felt he was a bit alone so I was like look we should pass around the car all asking Josh how his journey's going but third time Pete's like we don't need a fucking call Josh anymore he'd be on in the back hi Josh hi how are you has it been a good day yeah Pippa wants to talk to you.

10:42Hi, Josh. Kira just wants to say hello. Josh, how have you been? So Sam had a great day. How was the team day out? Sam had fun. That's the answer to that one. Annalise loved it. But guys, we were in a car a lot together. Who's the better travel companion? Who are you going to have more fun with? I don't find emergency stops that fun. No, I don't think there's many people that do. Or being farted on. Sorry, when you did your driving test and you went emergency stop, did you both giggle for an hour? No. Is that where it came from? Is that what sparked your love of emergency stops in a car? The problem is that when someone's laughing with you, it's really hard to stop.

11:25What Annalise, I don't think, has worked out is that we can't enable Sam. Sam, what you have to do is ignore him and eventually he'll stop. but you give him one, one giggle, one giggle and that joke is going to last a good three or four weeks. He did it all the way back. All right? And I tell you what, I walked into the office this morning and what did I see? Annalise and Sam going, Slay Queef! It was a week ago we went on this fucking road trip and Queef is still just as funny now as it was in the two hour fucking car ride home. It's just my favourite word on the planet. Again, HR. It's just, it's such a good word.

12:00If you really deep it, like really deep a Queef, right? Like how jokes is the word queef? Do you know what I didn't understand? This is actually crazy. This is legit crazy. I'm not doing a podcast about queef. No, no, no. I'm sorry. I'm not deep diving this. I'm not going to sit and do it. No, I hear you. We've won awards, Sam. I know. We've won awards. This needs to be said. I couldn't believe that sometimes if a girl farts, it can go in their other place and then come out. I think you've misunderstood it. No, you can. I'm not deep diving it either. It can. But that's not really what it is. It is.

12:36Do you know what I like? It's not. Do you know what I like? Capra Sun. No, do you know what? That's a perfect segue, actually. That's a great segue. It's not. It's the worst segue in the world. It's just anything to get away from fucking queef. That's a great segue because actually on that fucking note, Pete, one, is loving the Capra Suns right now. Two, really sticking to his sugar-free diet is on the zeros. The Capra Suns. Do you know how many people I put a photo up on our Instagram of me and Pete on one of our work days together, one of our many, and he's sucking on a Capri Sun. It's like Groundhog Day at the minute.

13:08And I've probably got like, I reckon 50 comments being like, that better be sugar free. Like they've listened to the podcast and people are holding you to it, mate. Not just the people, your girlfriend. I got a DM from Liv who literally goes, the way I just zoomed in to check that that was sugar free. that girl has got you under her sights mate so we've got a pact that we are uh we're keeping to it yeah and we're not doing sugar and we're not doing um alcohol really until we kind of go away unless there is a reason to break pact so on a daily thing and i think because everyone knows i love sugar and i have got quite a lot of well i just eat or eat and drink a lot of sugar i think she thought I wasn't gonna stick to it but you've been filming every day I literally not not I'm not having any chocolate not fucking sweet I'm nothing and and when you're filming and when we do these things they just bring sacks of fucking chocolate and I've not touched the thing I'm drinking water I'm I'm peeing a lot as well aren't you well this is something new for me so um not pissing obviously I'm sort of I've done that before but um I'm not a hydrated person as you all know when have you ever seen me drink water in all the time you've known me now i'm uh smashing through three liters of water a day i am at the age now where i have to piss every 15 minutes i'm i'm i i would go to the toilet like for a piss maybe twice a day previously i'm now going i would say 10 to 12 times a day that is a lot that's a weak bladder it's i i've got an old man weak bladder no do You know what?

14:49You need to train it. And this is a genuine thing, by the way. I get up in the middle of the night now to go to the toilet. It's only because it's not used to it. You need to now just keep drinking that kind of water. I just don't know how good being hydrated is. You're on your health journey, Pete. We slay queef, man. You've got this. You do. But the Capra Suns, I must say, so I love a Capra Sun. It's difficult now because they're paper straws. So you really have to think about getting the angle right. because if you blunt the end of the paper straw, it's game over. It is. Because you can't get into the bad boy.

15:22Yeah. So you really have to, you have to plump up your pouch, plump it up, plump it up. And then just prick it. Yeah. If you get it wrong, it's a waste of a Capra Sun because there's no other way because then you have to start fun. Not nice. And it's no one. You don't want that in your life. No, there's no dignity in sucking direct from the Capra Sun pouch. Are you gymming yet? Are we doing that? Is that something that, because I feel like we're sort of on that road. No, I think people have misinterpreted the fact that I've just stopped sugar and I'm not, you know, heavily drinking anymore with the fact that I'm now going to start pumping iron.

16:04I'm not. I'm not doing that as of yet. I will be honest with you about something, which is slightly embarrassing because now I feel like it will become a regular part of the podcast. I you and I strap in you and I are obviously working very hard at the minute we're doing very very long days we're talking about 16 hour days 7 days a week at the minute across loads of different things so time is of the essence as I am being slightly healthier I did order some resistance bands from Amazon okay how the I don't even say anything other than the resistance bands. So that I can do some sort of home, you know, bits and bobs.

16:50Just go to the gym. Why? Because it's really just about just making myself feel better at this point. So 20 minutes in the morning of I do press-ups and sit-ups and use resistance bands just because I don't have time to get to a gym. Because I walk the dogs for fucking two hours in the morning. So by the time I'm up at half o 'clock, if I get up any earlier, I'm not going to bed. I'm basically a vampire. I shouldn't be knocking it either, to be fair, mate. You're on your fitness journey. So I'm not in my fitness, but I do walk the dogs a lot, but it's just to do something a little bit more strength-based.

17:26I don't have genuinely, right now, because of the filming. I hate it. But off the back of that, I may start going to the gym. Oh, and paddle. Gym, paddle. I said it before. I just, I'm not going to be some fucking gym freak. I would just, you know, I'm getting to the age where I'm starting to notice that I'm struggling. We had to walk upstairs yesterday, right? Three flights of stairs, up and down. My knees hurt. We both, we both actually, this is quite bad because we were obviously interviewing, not obviously, we were interviewing some young kids and so they were like 19 at uni. And we were both, me and Pete both walked up the stairs.

18:01And even you pointed out, Pete, we both went, oh, as we were going up the stairs. Oh, these are long stairs. I was like, oh, mate, I never thought we'd get to that stage. I've got to that age now where these lads are 20 years young, half my age, so I could be their dad. Right, where I'm going, oh, lads, not as young as I used to be. These stares are a lot. And I said it and thought, oh, oh, I've become that fucking idiot. And we did quite a few when we were your age. When we were your age. And to the point where Sam yesterday, which really pleased me, thank God they didn't mention it to me, Sam was getting called Unc.

18:37Oh, my God, someone called me an Unc yesterday, man. That hurt. Someone said who'sunk. Yeah, that was bad. And also, someone called me a five out of ten. That was tough. That was tough to hear. To be fair, mine wasn't that much better. I got a fucking six and a half. Six, six point two five. Yeah. Was it two five? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I remember that. Oh, yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Try and get yourself up to a six point five. I heard six point five, not a six point five. Do you think, could Pilates be on the agenda for EP? You know, it's a lot. That is resistance training. By the way Fucking hard I see a lot of people That it's really fucking hard Same with that What's it The hot yoga thing Yeah Bitcoin yoga But Pilates is I would say I don't really understand Is that the one where you get the machine You slide about on it Yeah so that's for formal Pilates No it's a lot that isn't it It makes a lot And for dudes as well Like we get It's supposed to be really Is that all core based stuff Mate girls Shit on us Not literally like in the thing We're lying They're on the formal They're just squatting Been to Dubai have you Out of the port potty What?

19:40It's just that the joke was left there. But girls will shit on you, man. They are so much better at that. I'm going to be honest. I think most women, you know, physically would probably. I thought I could. I went head to head. Yeah, but Sam, but this is you all over. Honestly, you, any sport, I've never heard you say I'm not very good at it. You've always been Team GB of fucking Pilates or, you know, I once I once talked Pilates is actually me that came up with it you know what I mean like there is nothing that I don't and to be fair to you you are actually quite good at a lot of sports like I'm not you know you're not useless at stuff but there isn't anything that I don't think you think you can't do Pilates genuinely I thought but that's what I mean you go and then you go there's levels to this game I have never been so embarrassed it was my ex-girlfriend and I was like I was like I'll be able to, like, this is fine.

20:37Like, you know, just you do you, I'll do me. And within five minutes, I'm shaking like a shitting dog and I've got the lowest resistance on and the woman is only by me because everyone else is getting it right. And she's like manoeuvring me, be like, no, no, no, no, you're in the wrong, no, no, no, no, no, no. And eventually I had to be like, I'm really sorry, I can't do what you're asking me to do. If you ever want to go and do Pilates, I'll do it with you. I'd love to do it with you. No, right, listen, like I said now, because you're all going to get overexcited as you always fucking do. All right.

21:07I'm not getting in a gym era. All right. I'm just steadily trying to get old gracefully. All right. So I will not be going to the gym with you. All right. It's not for me. I don't. If you're going to go and work out, I don't want to chat. I don't want to. I don't need a social occasion with it. The thought, and this is, and I'm sure it's great for everyone and some people, it's great. The thought of doing a class in anything or having an instructor come and move my body. Fuck off. No, you'd love it. Fuck off. They get real next to you as well. Yeah, no, they really are. No, it's just not for me.

21:42I want to do it in silence. I don't want to be doing this. I just need to because I'll die soon. So that's my reason. But there's no happiness about it for me. So I won't be doing any of that. It's bad enough that I've played paddle with you. Oh, we might be playing on the weekend. This weekend. No, we're not. Potentially, but sorry, Sam. This is another Sam thing. have you booked it? 9am but you're saying it because so what you've done there is remember it have you booked it? I haven't booked it no okay this is it if you book it fine Sam I'll do it Sunday 9am 9am but this is deja vu because you literally said this to me two days ago I'll do it today all right Pippa you going?

22:23which is what you said two days ago Pippa had to fall down the stairs actually yesterday so I don't know I don't know if she'll be coming and you know I don't want to make you feel bad Pippa obviously, but I've only really seen you in kind of one sporting environment. You're off the team. It didn't fill me with confidence. Since then, you've kind of gone into kind of peak territory and you've had a fall. So, maybe it's worth you looking at kind of health, looking after yourself, looking after yourself a bit. Who are you playing with? Who have you replaced me with? Well, no, just me and him. Against who?

22:58Each other. Well, you're doing two-man. Well, yeah. Two-man. That's lame. Is it? No, I'll tell you what. Oh, no. That looks like you didn't have two other friends. No, I'll tell you what that looks like. We would rather spread the entire call than waste time watching you miss a ball. That is really a good thing. No, a two-man paddle. I wouldn't do that. I've only played once before. I want to play with Sam so that I can get used to fucking being about it. Okay, well, I'm around. So, yeah. So, no, not really in a gym here. I'm just kind of, you know. You are in your cooking era, though. Whoa. I'll tell you what, we are shocked.

23:35Why is everything right? This narrative about me has been running for too long on this fucking pod. I exist. Just because I've cooked does not mean I'm in an era. It's what people do. You cooked chilli con carne for your girlfriend and her friends. They were hungry. Yeah. And they were having their hair done. So, and Liv doesn't often like... Liv... Sounds like a man who's in his cooking era to me Sounds like a man who's deep in his cooking era Liv is so independent She just gets shit done So quite often she doesn't really need it But she was having stuff done It was getting late And I said well I'll just make a start On the cooking Spices And she was like well just do the vegetables then Cumin Just do the vegetables So I chopped up the vegetables And then they were still doing the hair So I just carried on Control freak That's classic Pete She probably wanted to do some of the chilli con carne by the way She couldn't Oh, because you're getting her hair done.

24:31She was getting her hair done. And I said to her, well, I'll just do a little bit. So I was just trying to be like... But it was the way that even she was like, what, you're just going to, like, cook it? Well, yeah. Why does no one believe I'm real? Do you know what kills me? It's that whenever I used to do it, it's like, oh, he's buying scallops. And now you're in a relationship, you're doing the exact same thing. No, no, no. You're cooking for your burger. No, no, no, no, no. You're slicing, dicing. Sam, Sam, there's a slight difference. I ordered the gear off Deliveroo, who got it delivered and cooked it, you pop down the fishmongers and get the best scallops money can buy and then start looking in cookbooks for veloutes and fennel fucking this, You'll be there, mate.

25:08Trust me. I guarantee it. I just knocked up a fucking chilli, mate. Yeah, but you'll be there. Come on, Bibby. You know he's going to be there. And then we all sat down. We all sat down and kind of ate it. Say grace. Eh? Say grace. No. You didn't say grace. I didn't say grace. Hang on. Did you say grace? Benedicto Benedicta. That's Latin. For what we're about to receive, may the Lord make us truly thankful. all right yeah do you remember that you went boarding school that's literally that one laugh from hannah at the back of the room was that i went to boarding school yeah well i mean it's very different the way we used to it they just used to put it in the middle and it was fight for whoever got there first prison rules and on that note uh big news big big news uh for peter wicks as well i feel like this has been you've been doing a lot actually recently this podcast is really sort of shedding light on how good of a guy you are, mate.

26:00For dog's sake, he's launching. It's launched by now, actually, hasn't it? Tonight. Tonight! Episode one of series four is, yeah, it is tonight. Whoa! Listen, everyone is going to say it. Yeah. I'm very proud of this series. It's the best one yet. So there is eight episodes in this series, so it's the longest run we've done. So obviously I've been filming that all through summer. And yeah, it's the best one we've done. It's elevated, it's bigger, it's better. It's full of all the same goodness of the previous three series of incredible people, sort of bits of me floating about, and incredible dogs.

26:44And it didn't disappoint this time. We've done a lot more. We've expanded. We've gone different places. We've done different things. We've seen different things we've not seen before. There's some incredible dogs, little, medium, big, a complete range. There is a new star in town. So Rodney has made his appearance. Has made an appearance on the show. He has been helping me work-wise. So he's not just sort of floating about. He's actually been helping with some of the dogs. So you will get to see him. So yeah, it airs tonight at 9pm on UNW and you can stream the whole series on you as well as all the other ones.

27:23So yeah, I'm very excited for people to see it because I genuinely think it's the best yet and it's really tough because when you do like a show and you get to a point where you're um at four series which I can't believe but when you get to that point like it's kind of like oh it's just another series and I'm so I'm actually really nervous about this one if I'm honest so if you can watch it share it tell me what you think of it because it's the difficult fourth series I'll be honest with you everyone is calling it the difficult fourth series because at that point how do you keep making it. You know what I mean?

27:57We did. We've done really well with it so far. People love it, but it is right. So like they'll keep coming back for the sake of, for dog's sake, for dog's sake. But, but yeah, it's about people coming back, but also it's about trying to expand and get as many people kind of to see it as possible. So, um, you know, follow Pete Wicks for dog's sake on Instagram for kind of behind the scenes, all sorts of other stuff. Um, and if you could watch it and share it as much as possible, 9pm, because you and W. Yes. Because, yes, Yes, because I would love to keep doing this for as long as possible. But I can only do that if people watch it.

28:30We need to get eyeballs on. Yes. So, yeah, that's kind of where we're at. Talking of TV.

30:25Made in Chelsea's back. You've had some big moments on the telly. I'm just reading the script now. What's happening? You can memes back. It's back. It's back. One of your most infamous, I would say, Winning the Jungle, number one, You Can, number two. It's very close. It's back. How do you feel about that still going, however many years later? Peace on series four of Dog's sake. Sam, your You Can memes back. It was the Channel 4 voiceover. Like, you know, before the show starts, it's like, you know, on E4 or whatever it is. And, you know, if you don't think you can get another series in, as Sam and the other girl would say you can and then it comes to that so it's not actually it's basically getting mugged off no you're a legend of the game I'm getting mugged off you're a reality TV legend getting fucking mugged off it's a legend no Channel 4 are mugging me off as well like it's not even just like I'll be honest with you this is not how we thought this would go it's not social media that's a network I thought that was a relevant moment Who've literally turned around and been like, yeah, fuck this, fucking do him over.

31:35What a prick. Great, thank you. So she goes on things, she goes, oh, yeah, you can. It's like, you know, the voiceover when it's the channel voiceover. Yeah, they just make a little gag about Chelsea being back. God, this is amazing. Well, I'm so grateful. Thank you so much, Summerfall. I really appreciate it. You know, it's just what everyone who's in this industry dreams of. A recurring and returning meme. of a park bench. When that was being filmed, can I ask you a question? I've never asked you about that. Then we'll move on. I feel like we should probably move on because I feel like this could be...

32:11One question. I want to hear the question. This is Sam's emergency stop moment. When that was being filmed, did you know it was going to... You know sometimes in those moments, you know, shit, this is going to go big. Did you think it would ever be what it is? No, I was in a heartbreak hotel. Do you know what I will say as well? just in Sam's defence we don't know in those moments really because when you're doing like the reality stuff like Tower Hill Made in Chelsea I know what now is different because it's all fucking bullshit but when we were doing it he was genuinely breaking up with a bird or like some of the things that I've done before like that have then gone fucking viral you're not thinking that you can's going to go mad yeah like if we do things now that is like like TV where you're presenting like we've had moments with this show we go that'll be a fucking good clip but when you're in them moments because it was reality back then.

33:02It's genuinely, you're not, you don't then go, that's going to go viral. Now you would because you're presenting or you're doing whatever else. But in then, we were just living it. So you don't go, that'll fucking do well. Do you know what I knew? Is that fair? Do you know what I mean? Completely bang on. The way I knew, and this was a negative, but I remember when it went to a different demographic of like Instagram and Twitter. And I went, oh, that's a new one. People that I like. Left Twitter to go to Instagram. Yeah. And I was like, this is interesting. I was like, this is like people that I know probably don't watch the show that much who are now using like this meme.

33:39And then it was a girl. I remember there was a girl who did a vodka video and it was basically like when someone steals your vodka at Freshers or something. And she was like the first person to do like the you can thing. And then it just went mad. And the fact that now, like still to this day, after all of the things that I've done, the you can moment is what Lewis Capaldi or whoever the fuck sees me goes you're the you can guy it's like the go compare guy I'm the fucking go compare guy I've done all of these different things and you just can't escape it no but to be fair like you're not the only one like if you are like I like I'm still just like the fucking arsehole from TOWIE like people will there are some people that will just forever just remember certain parts of it.

34:28But, look, you're moving on to better things and, like, I know that's, that's... A new meme's coming, I'm sure. No, no, no, no, no, you're moving on to better things. Like, that's all in the past and things have got better. You have gone up in the world. Tally included you in her dump.

34:51Yay. She actually barely does and I'm a bit like, why? Well, look, because, right, so this is a serious point. So obviously I'm joking. I don't want to say anything about it. But this is a serious point because we went through it with the whole, when are you launching and all the other sort of stuff. When the fuck are you launching? But, mate, do you know, I launch her all the time. She just never launches me. What is it? Have you had the conversation? How do you feel about it? How does it make you feel? I mean, pretend she's not listening. Well, do you know what? It's an interesting one because, actually, I'd never really thought about it until I saw that photo and I went, it's the first time I think I've ever been in one of these bad boys.

35:24Unless it, no, that's a lie. Like if we went to the British together and all these kind of things, she doesn't post all that much on Instagram. But she also could have picked a more flattering photo. I mean. With my gut hanging out. Oh, you haven't got a gut. Don't even get started. I've got my muffin top hanging out. I've got a sugar pouch. I've got my cat who looks like I'm holding him prisoner in one arm. And I look bald. No. Now all of them are true. Sam, Sam, I'm going to be honest with you because I feel like you're just putting yourself down now. Of all the photos I've seen of you, that is not one where I'd go bald.

35:56Your hair looks fine. You don't have a gut. You're asleep. It's quite cute with the cat. I actually think that's quite nice because it's gentle and authentic. Well, if it's gentle and authentic, why has Pippa written in the script, is falling asleep on the sofa an ick? Well, that's a leading question. Because Pippa is here to ask the big topical serious stuff. We're here just to shoot the shit. It's falling asleep on the sofa an ick, isn't it? It's a bit grandad Oh no is it I do it all the time Well at least he looks comfortable Because I And someone's got a blanket over him Yeah I get very tired And I fall asleep like this Oh god And do the nodding I fall asleep on the sofa And do you know what I do I wake up in rigor mortis as well So like I'm straight Like my legs are literally down there Like that When I'm asleep on the sofa And I feel like it probably is a bit I have bare feet out as well So like toes Yeah yeah toes out Is that it Pippa, for you as a girl, right?

36:54You're a girl. Yes. Why do you look confused? I said there's a girl. For you. You normally call me butch. Would you say falling asleep on the sofa's neck? No, personally, no. Good. I don't think so. I think it's, it did let your mouth open and you're drooling everywhere and like slumped and it's like a bit of a sight then maybe. I was also surprised to see Pete sipping away on a straw on Instagram. I'll straw things. Yeah, what I bypassed that is drinking from a straw and ick. Well, how else are you going to get in? I mean, fuck me. How else am I going to get into a Capri Sun? What do you want me to do?

37:27I think this straw is worse. What do you want me to do? How are you meant to do it? The whole Capri Sun thing is the whole conversation. So let's start with the straw. Do you want me to decant the Capri Sun into a glass? No, maybe I just... What do you want me to do? Opt for a canned drink. But what if I like Capri Sun? So I'm not allowed to drink Capri Sun because it might be a bit icky to drink it. Pippa's the kind of person who would literally sit with her matcher in hand and headband on, like, in Patsy Park going, oh. Do you know what? Do you know what, Sam? Fuck her. Do you know what's an ick?

37:57What? All right? He's having all the gear turned up to paddle and being scared of a wall. Yeah. That's a fucking it. Falling down the stairs. Falling down the stairs. Bringing your own rackets that people can borrow and then getting petrified of a bit of Perspex fucking glass. Falling down the stairs and then staying in the same position for half an hour. Couldn't move. Out of fear. And then, and then not stop talking about it. Yeah. As if she's just survived fucking a war. Yeah, exactly. How about that? Well, don't be such a clumsy fucking Karen then. I feel better. But listen, I don't think falling asleep on a sofa is Nick, mate.

38:30And I'll be honest with you, it's made me think of something else because you look very comfortable. Do you know what? I'm doing it more now, though. Yeah, but we're getting older. I am. And I'll tell you what, since we've been filming this fucking show, or are we getting older? I'm watching World War II documentaries and falling asleep on the sofa. Well, I'll tell you what. It's quite bad. So Sam and I had to get a train back yesterday from up north. I know what you're about to say. Right, right. And I tell you what, we sat there, we had a chat for a bit and, you know, we had a little debrief of things.

38:55And then Sam went, put his AirPods in, started to watch things and then took him back out to have another chat again because he'd remembered something else and we carried on. And they went, listen, that's all I'm going to say. I'm going to watch Napoleon. And then, not just me though, about an hour into me watching Napoleon, and then I'm like, I look up because I just, every now and then like to look at Pete and so I look up and he's like really locked into what he's watching and so I sort of like, just being like a bit of a nosy Susan I just sort of like look over because Susan's a nosy and I look over and I was like fuck is this man watching?

39:34He looks like he's watching Bargain Hunters and so I've like waved my hand in front of him I actually had to, I made him take his earphones I went, what the hell are you watching? he goes I'm watching OJ Simpson's game show and I just did like of all the things you've been juiced falling asleep on the sofa I presume you were watching telly yeah just watching a film and saying you just nodded off just nodded off just closed my eyes and nodded off I'll tell you something you won't nod off too though what bake off because it's back I bet are you on it no why would I be on it I don't know just kind of a random thing that we're like, fuck me, to close off the show, Bake Off's back.

40:16Yeah, but you were on Bake Off. Yeah, I know, I did shit, I came last. Well, this is kind of what I wanted to bring it up. Like, Bake Off is back. It's one of the nation's most loved shows. Yeah. You have done it. There isn't a show we haven't done between us. Didn't have the best time. Yeah. It was tough. It was tough. Have you carried on baking? No, I said never again. Never again. I said I haven't baked since. and I won't bake again. What? It was so traumatic. Yeah, I just can't. I can't do it, mate. It's my ADHD and like the ovens and timers and things. So if you went back, but I mean, I'll be honest with you, I remember when you did it and let's be honest, when people know they're doing bake-off, a lot of people, they prep and they try things.

40:56You did fuck all. I didn't do anything. I just called in. You just rocked up. Yeah. So if you were to go back and do it again, would you do things differently? I'd train. I'd absolutely train. Yeah, 100%. Yeah. He'd be in the fucking gym just there lifting up fucking icing bags. I definitely, it was a bit unfair. Mate, I did that two days after I completed my challenge. So I'm fucked up, my legs fucked. I've had no chance to like do anything. Vicky Patterson was doing it. She'd been training for like two months prior. Was she baking with her legs? No, but mate, I was going from London to Manchester.

41:29I had no time at all. And then like I rock up, hoping for a hero's welcome. Paul Hulley was like, your fucking, your treacle tart shit, it's got egg in it. And I was like, oh, mate, I'm really sorry. Like, he went, go and do Junior Bake Off. I just, yeah. He's a lovely man, by the way. But like, he just, I just got, I got really eaten out there. Eat, eat out. That's not it. What is it? Chewed out. I got chewed out. Paul Hulley would hate me. Fucking, well, I'll tell you what, since we know The Sun can only make articles from this podcast rather than doing any actual journalism, use that as a headline Paul Hollywood ate me out oh my god actually that's not the end by the way I'd like to to make a little speech quickly if that's okay about Bake Off no yeah about Paul Paul no no no the comedy's finished right we're done the laughs are over fucking when did it start I'm gonna emergency stop I'm gonna emergency stop this podcast silence please I've had a wonderful day by the way

42:34do you know what this is this is like when Sam told me he was doing the jungle the build up to it I just want to let you know I love you I've had a wonderful day I've had a wonderful 10 days as you said me and Pete never ever get to spend any time together we never spend any time together unless we're like it's work but because we're together all the time it's been so fucking fun I've loved spending so much time with you. It's made me just remember how great of a brother you are. You're a fucking hero, mate. And not only am I saying it, but you have just won an award. You've won the Best Magazine Heroes Award for services to animals.

43:18And it's not just your show, by the way. It's obviously for dog's sake, but for the last decade of things that you've done for animal charities over the years. because, mate, people have maybe just seen for dogs that you've been doing so much over the years. You've advocated for so much. You've done dog meat farms, wherever the hell you did that. Like you've been all over the place, mate, where no one's giving you any recognition at all. No one was talking about it and you were doing it from the bottom, from the actual joy it gave you and to make things better. And I think as somebody who I would like to say is your best friend and your brother, it makes me almost emotional that you are getting recognised as you deserve to be, mate.

43:56So I have this for you, sir. And this, you'll find it. Oh, my God. For fuck's sake, that is such an anti-climber. Mate, I'm fucking hell. No. No. I am so proud.

44:19Oh, my God. I'm so proud. So proud. I'm so proud to award you with this award, mate. You deserve every single recognition you get for the work that you do. And this is, I know to you, this is probably a piece of glass, but it means so much. It means absolutely everything, mate. You do so much. So many people. We adore you. Pete Wicks, everybody. Fuck that up. Jesus. So sorry. Would you like me to say something? Please do. um let's start with there is no one um that i would rather present an award to me than you in such spectacular fashion um i just want to say a huge thank you to best magazine and all their readers uh genuinely this means uh an awful lot to me like dogs and animal welfare is not something i'd just do for work it is a passion of mine and has been since i was a kid i prefer animals to people but you are now included in the list of people that i do like so thank you very very much i will treasure it and rodney's gonna love it you deserve it peter wicks what a boy what a man what a champion no mate you okay that was that i feel so stupid anyway that was the podcast one of the best things that i fucking that was meant to be such a nice moment it was that was a really lovely moment and that was true staying relevant style in which that has happened we are going to be back for a bonus episode after i would say quite a long debrief about what's just happened um make sure you rate review do all of that stuff um and yeah watch for dog's sake tonight please um and also make the most of samuel thompson because i don't feel like he's getting the credit that he deserves because for the next few weeks he's going to be here and then we are losing him when he hosts his very own show which is going to be on ITV unpacked so we're also very very proud of you thank you very much but it's about you today don't try no it's about trying to shift it he's trying to shift it it's about you you're about to take it you gotta take it yeah tada fuck off
