2:05And then Monday's main episode, which came out audibly, you can now watch on Josh, Kira and Paul's YouTube channel as of 5pm on Wednesday night. So that means you can catch us on a... Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Sunday. Wonderful. Great review, do all of that crap. You know the score by now that we'll be swearing. If you don't like it, go f*** yourself. this episode and the bonus episodes. But any episode, really, if you've got something interesting to say, then get involved by emailing the worst email address in the world. Hello, srproductions.co.uk. But please make it interesting because we do get a lot of crap from you.

2:39Well, on that note, actually, we have our first email here. It's from Millie. Hey, boys. So after some recent Instagram activity, it got me wondering, what are your guys' love languages? languages. Do you know what? Out of all the times, all the years we've done this, I don't think we've ever been asked that before. I don't think we have either. How many is there? Six? Yeah, there's like physical touch, acts of service, gift giving. Let's get this up. Words of affirmation. Five, yeah. All right. What's the fifth one? Words of affirmation. Quality time. Physical touch, receiving gifts, quality time, acts of service.

3:14Sam, yours are words of affirmation. And physical touch. Yeah. Interesting. words of affirmation physical touch quite touchy with telly yeah i'm a proper fiddler you know this like i am i like that's not weird is it what's wrong with that i do thank you i i fiddle with her now i say it it sounds weird no but i i what i mean but when i say there's a reason i say fiddle is because i like play with her ears and stuff yeah so like i'll touch like her earlobes i like fiddle around with her i like squeeze her face sometimes like like i'll just say all sounds lovely i know i went and then i'll just i like i like kit like i just i'm very tactile okay very tactile so i and and if someone didn't like that i'd like wouldn't know what to do okay but luckily she does like that and words of affirmation you know i've always i always like a flower i like an arm around the shoulder i like um do you know what i like weirdly is i i like people saying like i've done well do you know what i mean in like a relationship like because i'm like a i'm like a dog is that why you ask after sex no but like i'm like a dad that's just because insecurity but like But I'm like a dog.

4:19If you want me to do something, I'll do it. I just need you to tell me it's the right thing to do. And so, for example, if I were to, I can't think of an example, but I'd like someone to tell me I'd be like, thank you, that means a lot to me. And I'm like, oh, cool, okay, great, I'll do that again. Okay, all right, nice. Well explained. Yeah, and also just being told someone loves you is always quite nice. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's true, that's true. I would say... I know I panicked. I just think I'm really awkward just saying. You look stressed. Yeah, like squeezing the fucking sofa. So mine, I would probably say, physical touch and...

4:58You a fiddler too? No, I don't fiddle. I would say, yeah, it's physical touch. Quality time, I think, probably for me. Yeah. Do you like a triple A? I don't need words of affirmation. But then also, what do you give in a relationship, I think is another thing. I would say mine is acts of service and physical such. I think mine are the exact same. Acts of service. Yeah. I try and do. Yeah. I'm booking flights. That's like an admin thing. But like, for example, I'll go to... It's an act of service. Yeah, but mate, for example, I'll go to like yesterday, I'll go and pick her up like some flowers and like a coconut water or something like that.

5:32And just like, I try and actively think about what it is that she wants. And I feel like that's an everyday act of service, I think. Sampeet and Kira. Here we go. I really enjoyed this week's Behind the Pod video on YouTube, particularly the penalty shootout and watching the boys have a kickabout and Pippa's rather limmy attempts. Sorry, Pippa. So I wanted to know which sport do you think you could compete nationally at if you had to pick one? I look forward to Sam's unwavering confidence here. I don't think I could compete nationally at anything. I'm not an overly sporty person. Backflipping, yeah.

6:04But I imagine I'd compete once and then die. I'm just not overly, I think I'm too old and fucked really to do anything nationally. Maybe darts. I feel like that's quite easy on the body. That one. I feel like darts. I'm actually not bad at darts. I don't think I could beat Luke Littler, but, you know, the old Luke the Nuke. But yeah, not bad at darts. I think I'm too old and too unfit to do any sort of physical type of sport. I have a random one. Niche. And like Pete said, obviously, I'm quite good at ping pong. like quite good at quite good at the pong you've picked a really difficult yeah i know i know i know mate when you watch them yeah there's real levels yeah i know they're fucking sick mate they're standing 50 meters away from the table and still getting it in they're fucking incredible but i just feel like also you don't need to be that fit maybe and like that like ping pong yeah but mate it's a small table right it's not like like they're fucking flying all over i know it's I said it was niche, right?

7:07And this isn't unwavering. But like ping pong for me is something that I would love to like get a lot better at. Maybe badminton. Badminton. I fucking like badminton. We should, if you fancy it. Genuinely, I actually like badminton. Again, fucking tough that though. Yeah. Because it doesn't look that fucking difficult. It pisses me off when you have sports like badminton that don't look difficult. Snooker doesn't look difficult. Darts doesn't look difficult. Even golf does, it's balling hole. So hard, all of them. Technically, so hard. But golf would be a good one for you. That's not overly sporty.

7:40So hard, mate. Yeah. So hard. I feel like table tennis, at the age we're at, golf, you can get about when you're quite old. Table tennis, mate, I don't... Your knees struggle with the running. I don't think the high impact on a fucking court will help the shin splints. The splints would be a tough one, to be fair, to handle. Table tennis is a fucking tough, tough goal. But I just really enjoy it. I wanted to get a table tennis table in the office, but we don't really have space. But like, I... To be fair, we could clear that fucking table over there. Mate, it'd be fucking fun. I'd rather have a pool table.

8:14Yeah, but it's a bit slower pool. Ping pong, just have a quick game. Do you know what I mean? Pool. Look, I'll have a pool table. I'll have anything, any game, really. But yeah, I'd say ping pong. As a niche one, I don't think I could. I don't actually have, as Pete said, as the years rumble by, I've only just started understanding, realising that I'm not going to be a professional athlete or something. Kira, if you could get up and go to the microphone because you were also included in this. No one cares what Pippa or Pippa is. Yeah, but why is Kira in this? Because Kira runs the behind the scenes.

8:43Kira, any sport? That's so funny. Any sport? That you think you could compete nationally in? She's such a hyroxer. I'd love to do the diving. You know, you jump off a... That's such a rogue. Like the high diving, like Tom Daly style. Yeah, like Tom Daly. Sit back down. What the fuck is that? At just that You know At least we thought This is why we don't ask The team questions Yeah that's mental We don't even know If she's ever dived before Are you any good at that If it's just something We feel like we could be good at My tyre Dressage Dressage would be great I'd love to do a bit of dressage I know Molly doesn't Give a fuck about her But should we Should we ask Pippa Pippa What Pippa What are your athletic strengths Speed walking Obviously sorry Yeah no We forgot those Those of you that don't know Pippa holds the speed walking record at her sort of posh little school that she went to where apparently it was a spool.

9:40But that was just sort of a way to get energy out of the fucking fast kids. Two years in a row. Two years in a row. Yeah, and then the school shut down so no one can ever beat it. Right, okay. So you hold that record speed walking. Why are you leaning forward and cursing your lips? Yeah. There's something about your reaction to speed walking that makes me despise you on so many levels. Just jealousy doesn't look good on you. I think I could out speed walk you. and in fact I think we once did it I actually tried I'm going to be honest with you Pete I did go head to head with her she's like a fucking ant but didn't you just not run in yeah I don't really understand it because it's like a millipede the rules are you have to always have one foot on the ground if there's two feet off the ground at any given time that's a run honestly don't do it should we should we take things you know this has come off the back of the football in the car park should we take a small speed walk race to the car park I'm happy to do that it will be video you're in the kit I don't have a flip flop on so hopefully my feet will be saved from the glass she's dressed as fuck knows what she's come as a court jester today with some sort of pedal pusher on so I think we're all ready maybe we could do that and we will be able to referee it properly because we can watch it back to see if any feet came off because then there's instant disqualification because there is a danger we know how competitive you and I are that we will just sprint and go no I was running I was running Pippa's not even going to get a look into this it's going to be me and Pete and then just someone's going to shove Pippa down or something and then whoever loses gets bummed yeah nice perfect nice you guys could do some diving as well maybe yeah yeah yeah if you could climb up the fire escape and then you dive off onto the concrete you could practice your diving from the roof of the building nothing that car park it's fit for everything I'm sure there's a puddle out there you can probably have a little splashing She can just do high rocks on her own.

11:34Just netballing again. So there you go, Molly. We're potentially going to be doing a speed walking challenge in a car park. Well done, you. Question time. We love a question time. The first one is, what's the last thing in your calculator? Do you remember why you used it? I don't even think I've ever used it. I normally delete it after I've used it, but I do use it quite often. I don't have a clue. Oh my God, I do. I do. So mine says 24 times 18. Not a clue. Yeah, I don't know what that would be. I literally have not a clue. That's a weird one as well. Yeah, maybe how many hours in 18 days? That's such a peak question.

12:13I don't know. That's such... That's an autistic... I have no idea what that's for. Be on a train journey just out of nowhere. I wonder how many hours there are in 18 days. Just, I have absolutely not a clue what that's for.

12:58We'll be right back. Selection varies by location. See Lowe's.com for more details.

14:22Next question, squirrels or badgers? Oh mate, depends what squirrels. If they're red squirrels, squirrels. If they're grey squirrels, badgers. Okay, but you know a red squirrel was introduced and nearly wiped out the grey squirrel population. But then the grey squirrel actually wiped out the red squirrel. They fought back. Did they fucking Uno reverse it? They Uno reversed it. Shut the fuck up, I did not know that. But they haven't wiped the map. You don't often see a red squirrel. No, you never see them. I thought the red squirrels were native to this land. I thought grey squirrel was native and the red squirrels were introduced and then there was...

14:53I think it was red was native. Is it the other way around? And then I think the greys came in and fucked them up. Oh, is it that way around? I don't actually know. Maybe. Pippi, you can do the... Well, you've got a fucking laptop. Sorry, I just thought you were asking me if I knew. Jeez, someone's been on holiday and forgotten her job. Are red squirrels in the UK? Is that the country? No. Why are you panicking now? Pippa said, I'm really panicking. Which was native? Yes, red squirrels are the only squirrel species native to the UK. So it's greys. And now you don't see them. And the greys come in and they fucked them up.

15:20And now you only see greysquirls. and there's only a very few amount of red squirrels out there. So if it's a red squirrel, 100 % red. But not greys. No, don't know. Fuck the greys. They're like pigeons. Yeah, they're nuts. No, I don't like... But badger if it's grey, because I love a badger. For me, it's badgers either way. I do like badgers. Endangered species. I didn't know that. Badgers, yeah, you've got to protect the badgers, guys. Are they aggressive? Yeah, very. I thought so. They can kill dogs. Kill little dogs. Yeah. Ooh. Well, yeah. I mean, they cause an awful lot of problems on farms because they carry tuberculosis, which actually, if it gets into your livestock, you potentially have to cull your livestock.

15:57So badgers, but they are an endangered species. They are now protected. Brian May does a lot with badgers. And they're just a very lovely animal. You know, they look nice. And they are obviously the insignia for the Hufflepuff house in Harry Potter. And that. Which goes quite a long way. And that. It's a fucking good question, though. I've got to say. Interesting question. I really like that. Would you like to take, give a sort of an animal this or that just off the top of your head okay this or that a donkey or a turtle oh that's a really donkey or a turtle difficult one off the top of your head I love both of them I do love a turtle and are we talking like sea turtle or any sort of turtle species any sort of turtle species yeah they can be anyone not a tortoise though no differences a tortoise lives on land I think so Turtle lives in the sea.

16:49Christ. Yeah. I do love a donkey. But they're not the donkeys that are really mistreated that go on the adverts. It's not like a really mistreated donkey. I go on the adverts. It's not the donkeys that sit there and go, I've had a tough time. It's like, they do the Netflix documentary where the donkey sits down and goes, which camera am I looking at? Okay. I just feel like an ass. It's the donkey. It's just a donkey, a standard donkey. Oh God. But I do love a standard donkey. I think they're hilarious. They're incredibly funny. They are so stubborn. Big teeth. Yes. Then you've also got Donkey and Shrek, who is aggravating, and I'd want to punch him.

17:27My favourite character. So it's tough for me there. Do you know what? I'm going to say because I have more experience with them, spent more time with them, I'm going to go Donkey. Based on the fact I've not spent a lot of time around turtles. So although I like to look at Erma, You see all the horrendous stuff about the sea turtles and all the rest of it. And I'd love to see little baby sea turtles when they try to make it to sea. It's a beautiful thing. But I don't know. Turtles could be ****. Well, I've met a few. I've met a few turtles. They're pretty nice. I've not spent much time with them.

17:58I have. They're good. They're good people. Yeah. The way they swim. Because I heard they can be quite shellfish. I don't know. Do you know what? I actually spoke to one on the shell phone recently. Nice. Good. Good. Fucking yes. Look how proud he is of me. Yes. Good. He used to call me on my shelf phone. Lost it. Just a quick while you were ahead. Goddamn. All right, good. Okay, wait, can I do one more? A penguin or a monkey? Right. Again, you've made this very tough because when you say monkey. Which monkey? We're not talking because we've got apes, different monkeys. Monkey. So like a little tree monkey.

18:40Like lemurs and monkeys, is it? Yeah. Oh, fuck me. The monkeys you get in India, you know those little Indian monkeys that howl when a tiger comes. They're little ones. Like a gibbon is a monkey. Yeah, they're the ones I'm talking about I think. Yeah, I mean you've got the monkeys in Gibraltar who I've seen. A lot of monkeys. Spent some time with, yeah, it's a lot of monkeys. Penguins though, mate, the way they waddle. You know, like they give a stone and a pebble when they're in love and fucking, you know, like... And they stay with one person for their lives. It stays at home with the kids, doesn't it?

19:11While mum goes out and little baby penguins, happy feet. Yeah. Penguins can get adopted as well. What do you mean? Penguins get adopted by other penguins. No. Oh, rescue penguin. Penguin then. It's got to be. Do you know what? It's got to be. It's tough to be a penguin. But then that little monkey at that zoo carried his little fucking toy around. Oh, that was fucking. Punch her, wasn't it? Punch her. Punch the monkey. Oh, my God. That's not advice. Yes, that is the name. Don't punch a monkey. And also I've recently seen the little albino gorilla. Yes. I know it's not a monkey, it's an ape who had no friends.

19:47You don't like gorillas. I'm scared of them. Yeah. I think they could take over the world if they wanted to, but monkeys, not so much. But I think you would struggle to be a penguin. I agree. The way they waddle. In most areas, you'd struggle to be a penguin, I think. All right, one quick last one. I feel like I'll lose this based on the 40 a day. who can hold their breath longer? Oh, that's such a good question. I don't even have that on my thing. Such a good question. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Neither of us are preparing. As soon as I read it, I went... Should we give it a go? I need piss. So there's a chance I may piss myself.

20:29Okay, Pippa, if you want to do... Do you want to see the time? Yeah, and I think you've got headphones in, so you'll be able to hear we have to stay close to Mike for no cheating. Yeah. I'm actually traditionally not very good at this. Mate, I'll be honest with you. Okay, lightheaded. All right, Pippa, if you want to start us. Ready? So give us a countdown. Three, two, one, go.

20:56Sorry, I'm laughing. It's the silence. I can't do it. 21 seconds from you, Sam. No, I laughed. Oh, no, I'm so annoyed. Can I go again? Can we go again? Oh, my God, you've been absolutely stormed. I've got to go again. No, mate, I laughed. I laughed. I laughed. Ready? I don't know if that's a rematch kind of thing. I don't know if it's as impactful. Should we just both go again? Because you can hit a minute. Well, yeah, you can't. You've got a target. You can't just have another fucking gun. This wasn't a tactic that you can hold their breath. Let's just see what Pete can do first. You have to give him a minute.

21:31Okay, ready? No, no. Give me a minute to recover. Oh, oh. Jesus Christ We're not doing A minute of silence Back to back Repeatedly This is a pod So let's go at the same time Mate it's just The silence though Gets me It really gets me Because it's just like Neither of you Were talking either And it was just so quiet What do you want me to say You alright Keir How was your weekend I don't know It just got so quiet Okay Alright Ready Sure Yeah Give us a countdown Here we go again 3 2 1 Go Alright Keir How was your weekend Good Nice

22:07Sam you've got to be breathing did I hit a minute? 1.29 oh fuck there's no way thank you for listening to Sam Relevant the podcast hosted by our two best friends Sam Thompson and me Pete Wicks Sam has been quiet for a little while he's been holding his breath for about 24 minutes now he's just about to hit two minutes well done Sam Thompson we'll be back next week sending you lots of love goodbye everyone great review blah blah blah Oh, I can't breathe. Hello. Do you know how I'm really good at that? I do it in the pool all the time. Yeah, that's literally what I do in the pool. That's how I know I'm good, because I literally have trained for this moment.

22:45Yet before we did it, it was traditionally I'm not really good at this. I've been training. Then suddenly I worked out a technique and realised that I'm better than the old man who smiles. Do you know what I'm trying? I feel like I might die. I literally, I'd speak to my missus, I'd be like, tie me in the pool. I'd just go and float. This has been a Staying Relevant production.
