Scrooge. I'm so hot though. You damn, you are. Boring. Do you know what it is, right? You know you get to a certain age where you know the wife just finds all your gags really boring. The ones that like she used to laugh her head off at. Oh, husband's so amazing. Now it's like, I fucking hate this man so much. His gags aren't funny. You saying the wife as well, man?

Yeah. So I'm like, look, no. She's saying, just do this, just do that. I'll get you what I want to get you.

2:26That's not what Christmas is about. It's about me getting you a shit present. I like my gifts to be practical and not a waste of money. Do you know where this came from, right? Someone sent me a message this morning. Let me just reply it for you. See what you think of this. Come on, content creator. Alec is 42 this morning and therefore has nothing further to contribute to society. So today's the day Alec goes into a home for middle-aged men.

2:58Look at Alec, yeah. From now on, more and more of what you do in your life will be a waste of time. You have reared and now you are spent. You sit in a sports car, but you look like a worm on a diamond. All right? Now, what you have to adjust to is a world in which people no longer fancy you. As you go through this change, you will divest yourself of the clothing and care products that previously you found beneficial. That was when you were young, when your imagination was supple and could leap like a bird. the past is a distant yacht what you haven't done now you'll never get done

3:52possibility is a private party to which you are no longer yeah but if you're a loser listening to this yes but not if you're a normal person a single man in this room who will ever be an astronaut

4:09okay thank you who said you that get your beer get your beer boys yeah did your schoolmate send you that yeah I knew it oh it's so funny so happy Christmas guys so yeah so obviously I came in feeling a little bit down and when you didn't laugh my gag that's why I snapped I do laugh at your gags the funny ones very good well he laughs as a run anyway so it doesn't matter I know they're good so the 23rd of December guys hopefully all your preps done by now have you got any weekly minds that have popped up all my preps done yeah I've got a slight weekly shine today I found myself because before this podcast I had a bit of time I walked the dogs you know did all the running around with the kids and stuff yeah you can't say you've got a weekly shine I mean make it up Can I just say, can I just say, that's not true.

5:10Like, Pete was off this morning, so I said, I'm going to ride my horse. Is that okay? And he's like, well, how do you expect me to take the kids to this and do that? Didn't say that at all. Why didn't you let him finish his shine before? Go on, go on, finish his shine. So I found myself with a bit of time to myself to try and sort things out that I needed to sort out. There's a few things that I need to do. Book things, sort things, this and that. so then you know when i was getting kind of rushed to start this podcast i was thinking oh my god i got a million things to do i came in saying exactly what ab says on a daily basis and being really stressed out by it so then i thought okay i now understand where you get this stressed out vibe from you can empathize when you're trying to sort things so yeah i basically could empathize with abigail um about why you are how you are because i i've had one day doing it every second of it I think I should wear the bloody Santa beard because I'm Santa in this house, not you.

6:05Yeah, you are. But I think that's most wives, if I'm honest. Most of my friends are useless. They are. And their wives do a lot for them. And I appreciate that. I was speaking to Chrissie the other day and Chrissie asked SIDS to buy one thing. Yeah. What was it now? Anyway, a karaoke machine. And he said, well, can't you just order it? And she was like, well, no, because I've done everything because a woman is expected to take care of everything, including the kids, all the presents, not only get all the presents, wrap all the presents. Yeah. So what's one more thing? I'm joking, I'm joking, I'm joking.

6:44Sounds like a big hullabaloo of an answer to me. I'm not complaining and I actually enjoy this task and this role, but a little bit of, well, a little pat on the back would be nice. So that was what I was trying to do. with that weekly shine there. I know there's a little bit underhanded at the start as I was doing a bit of running around. That's rare enough. I apologise for that. But no, I was trying to say you do a lot and I've just tried to do one day of it of your 364 days of the year and I do one and I appreciate it. Pete's job is to open the letters and he goes, leave them at the end of the island.

7:19It's about three metres higher the letters. Yeah, but I will plough through that when I have time. I do, I am a busy man as well. You're a busy, busy, busy man. Do you know what I mean? Like I do, I have lots to do golf paddle Christmas lunches she's having you right off me you know taking your kids to school providing for my family going to work perhaps being away yeah and of course you know there are my leisure pursuits once in a while you're taking the piss out of me can I see a cup of bloody tea every night no because no that's there's two sides to that story the story with that one is Merry Christmas by the way I was going to say that's the one I envisioned to decide to this one was I'll go upstairs so everything will be chatting downstairs not a word said we'll go upstairs I'll brush my teeth I might even get some pyjamas on I might even go just chilling to bed turn the telly on just as I breathe out will you make me a cup of tea?

8:15that for me is a power move that's a power move maybe she drives it out oh my god say it every time she could have said to me would you mind bringing me a cup of tea and I'll no problem babe we've been together 21 years you should know the fucking drill by now even that like that is just so derogatory you can't speak to your husband like that you need more respect you've got to remember I am the daddy I am the daddy I am the daddy you can't belittle me in that manner so I feel like we've got our weekly minds off the way well then I feel like we've just yeah we've got stuff off but we're excited for Christmas yeah it's the best time of year and looking forward to just getting our Christmas jammies on having some gorgeous food seeing the kids faces when they open the presents and just having some special family time because that's what it's all about definitely the way i felt today was you know trying to sort things and stuff like that i didn't like it at all but like we have i've been busy as well regardless what you think no no no fair yeah we we've been both of us have been busy and i think the thought of just going what do you want to do today you know for for a little period of time agreed and like shall we just put a movie on shall we go walk the dog yeah yeah that is really appealing to you I've got a weekly wine go on so Pete's one present that he had to buy for the kids I was just gonna say could you mention that was the bikes bikes for Johnny and Jack they want a bike and this is the type of person that I'm dealing with here so he does a little quick I'll order online then he sends Lee to go and collect the bikes then the bikes come we've hidden them in the studio here yeah and we walk in and Pete's like oh what do you think the bikes are great aren't they one of them is basically for Peter it's that big yeah that big for our seven year old son I'm going to get into it there's no point buying a small bike and he didn't even notice the size he's a bit like bikes are great aren't they it was so funny so the door opened you just coming in and I just heard Pete go oh babe them bikes should come they look great don't they and you're like yeah yeah and then you went well actually Johnny can't ride the bike and that one's the wrong colour oh got no stabilisers on or something like that no he can't ride that bike he's made up of himself they look great them don't they babe you can't ride that bike because it's it's basically for Michael Jordan the bloody size of it like what on earth are you thinking he's a freaking crouch he'll grow into it I sent you his sizes he's 145 145 in height anyway 140 in Haiti as Johnny and that's for an adult.

10:54That was the one up from Jax. That's funny. Very, very good. Please read the small print. It was one up from Jax. But I agree. I think Jax is fine. Maybe I should have got the same size as Jax would have extended the seat a little bit. But I think he'll be fine with that. I do think so. If not, you can ride it. Yeah. I'll ride it. Not if it's got no stabilizers on. Yeah. Do you want to get some audience wines? Christmas audience wines. Hey guys, Yule tidings in regards to the family. I don't do the look now, you'll notice. Just a quick wine for me regarding our work secret Santa spiralled out of control.

11:36The limit's£10. Someone bought me a personalised mug. Fine. Then someone else bought pyjamas. Then someone bought concert tickets. Now it's my turn and I've got the office overachiever who once made a colleague cry with how thoughtful her gift was. If I stick to the£10 limit, I look tight. If I don't, I'm financially irresponsible. Constantly being set up to fail. See, we have that with the school. £10 is a bit of a low limit these days, I think, full stop. What can you get for a tenner? Very. Freddo? You can get, when I was in the nail shop yesterday, the lady sitting next to me was fuming about the price of a Starbucks coffee.

12:15£5. £5 for one coffee. cost a fortune more like cost a coffee more like cost a bloody fortune really that's a lot isn't it well I don't know because I look at it now coffee for a pound well I remember when you know a pint was like 250 whatever what's a pint now like 8 quid easy easy really you don't get much change from like a tenner I've never bought a drink in a bar so I wouldn't know yeah doesn't he know I'm joking it's an outrage isn't it really the price of a actual pint that's what you should get them a pint it's a tenner got you the pint yeah I went out my school pals they were like all my mates and that yeah it's like you're looking at 60 70 quid fucking round it's a joke what is going on with the world eh so I but I do think that kind of does limit you know what you can buy in the secret centre with a tenner I think you should just get some something for what you think they'd like because we had it with you know we've had to do like four school Christmas secret centres yeah and I just went down all our kids are just massively into the jelly cats so I just got the little jelly cats and some chockies which is above the limit but you know as you say it's hard to get something and you don't want to look stingy do you?

13:29I think you just go slightly above the limit and like you say with the kids ones jelly cats boys football cards and then maybe even a little football and that little football at his own is about seven, eight quid with the football cards probably takes it to about twelve, thirteen, fourteen quid you can do it we've said with the adults this year we're not going to we're going to do an experience instead that's good because it just gets out of hand I was just saying he's doing the cube in London yeah we want to do I want to do the traitors thing yeah we'll have to do it we'll all do it I really want to do that yeah you were supposed to book that did you no but I've gone through bearing in mind today right I've wrote down our schedule out there's not one day we can do it in unless we cancel we want to do a show and we want to do a few bits we'll do it in January Yeah, that's fine.

14:17We'll do it in January. Birthday party sorted. I know, yeah. It's off the birthday party again. It's off? It's off. Okay, back to the kitchen? No, me and Pete are just going to do something on our own. Nice. That's good. Yeah. I think so. Yeah, low key. You're giving away something? I promise you. I know nothing. There's no big parties. You said this to me factually, and I know whatever I do is going to be wrong. can I say this now on the podcast it won't be will be babe I'd like to go back to that place and um you keep saying different things every single day and it's like do you want to just be quiet me and you should go to Rechia okay we will do that yeah okay hi team I wanted to have a quick wine about Karen's in HR who constantly organise our works Christmas do's midweek you have to go into the office full glam at normal time you are half knackered by the time the party gets started would lead you to getting 10 times more piss when it finally gets good.

15:18You can't fully relax, but also can't fully behave. You spend the night doing mental maths about how rough tomorrow's meeting will be. That's a valid point, isn't it? Yeah, but I think midweek's like... It's universal. I think that is the rules. But what I think should be more relaxed is the day after. Yeah, agreed. 12pm start. But also she should take solace in the fact that it's universal. everyone in the office is going to be feeling rough. Yeah, but no one wants to go to work without a gober. No, agreed. But I do think it's still funny that you should come in the next day. Yeah. Because it's, I think it's like...

15:53Sheepish. Yeah, it's good fun, I think. Someone's come straight from a hotel. Someone hasn't been to bed. Same clothes on. Yeah. Yeah, loads of printouts on the photocopier. Lippy all over them. We're doing ours on a Thursday. I think a Thursday is a good one to do as well, because you kind of... on the what? 3rd of Jan? Thursday. We're doing it on Thursday. Thanks for the invite. We are not part of the team. No. It's the Peter Crouch podcast team. Clearly no one's to hang out with me. Party power organised the dark. What are you laughing at, Sam?

16:30They said you suck, Alex. Sam's just sitting there on his laptop. Sam's getting fired in January. So this just got out on the 23rd, I believe. What are we going to be doing on the 23rd? well 23rd is kind of our wind down all our work's done hopefully people have wrapped all the presents by then and I think we're so excited to watch the kingdom the new Attenborough thing with the kids oh I've seen yes we watched the first episode and it was just phenomenal those wild dogs are just so impressive like the hyenas and that the African wild dogs hyenas yeah the leopards the lions and how they kind of co coexist coexist in this in Zambia it's amazing it's the most incredible show but how over five years it's been filmed really yeah it's they kind of they all kind of get involved together don't they it's like they fight each other for the same and then sometimes the dogs win sometimes the hyenas win and it's like how sly the hyenas are how kind of how the lions run the show how the leopards kind of work on the peripheral yeah yeah it's actually incredible the dogs are just watching their behavioral patterns are just phenomenal.

17:46Like when they have the puppies, the whole pack look after the puppies, whereas the hyena clan, when they have kids, so they're friends with the sisters, but they don't look after each other's kids or don't feed each other's ones, but the dogs will, you know, all work as a team. It's more like a social, yeah. Oh my God. And they're so loyal. Which makes them so much stronger. Yeah. To the point where they actually take on the hyena. They feed the puppies first and the adults don't eat until the little one. And they are a bit spooky and a bit aggressive, but their loyalty and how they look, like one instance where the den collapsed and all the puppies were trapped underground and all the dogs were running in, getting all the puppies out.

18:26Really? They all help each other. It's hysterical. Which in turn makes them powerful, even though they're probably the weakest out of all of them. One on one, the hyena would be stronger, the lion would be stronger, the leopard would be stronger. But when they're all together, the strength in the pack yeah 100 % it's it's a life lesson a bit like George Orwell wow I'm going deep here but you know fucking hell I thought you were going to say I'll be watching Deck the Horse there's a time and place now as well but that is it's very I thought it was really cleverly done it kind of makes you think about you know even your life really like the the leopard they're really solitary animals but even when when the daughter kind of flew the nest a little bit came back and wanted to share a meal it hadn't been able to kill yet wanted to share a meal with the mum who had a kill so she's come back tried to share it nicked the food the mum just chased her started biting her I was like this is like me when Sophia nicks me mascara at my make up job that's exactly what she said so you're nicer than when you have the babies so when the babies the mummy's feeding the baby and then the mum doesn't get on with an adolescent daughter and I was like fucking hell it's so true like that's me literally chasing Sophia up the stairs get my jeans on but we watched it with the kids and I was thinking there's so many life lessons in this yeah if you watch it you know in that manner there's a lot of life lessons in it and then obviously the leopard chases you know the kind of adolescent daughter off about the food and that was basically showing like you know now you're at the age now where you need to fend for yourself you can't if you do if I let you do this once you're going to keep coming back going I'll try and knit your food and you won't be able to survive yeah yeah really yeah looking at it on a meta level Peter that's just the way you operate just how I operate but that way you know and little Bambi was just at the end of the bed and every time the dogs came on barking at the dogs where's she barking yeah he barks at everyone does he can't take him out he's like trying to like every dog that he sees in the street he's like going mental but that's that is all little dogs like because when I when I'm with Jeffrey and Ralph they all the little ones always go for them yeah properly go for them and we've got a sad week my cat baby has to be put down this week has she already been or she has to be no she has to be she's um she's on palliative care now at home what yeah she's got stage 4 kidney failure what so what is she just in like a bed upstairs she's just um she's still she's still she's just on painkillers she's just not I think it's time it's where we make a decision you know um that's so sad you've had there for 20 years and I've got a sister but she's been in the hospital all week on fluids and there's nothing they can do even on the medication she was deteriorating so I said look I want her home so like you know we all had a nice cuddle with her in bed last night and all took pictures of her but yeah I'm sorry to hear that well listen she's had the best life ever so it's what we got I know I know at least you got Pete

21:39i'll be pissing myself soon glad to look forward to it's a bit hard when we wake up and there's like there's poo and we everywhere she just can't oh pog out yeah ultimately for us christmas is just about being together as a family and spending quality time and we can't wait can we yeah it's our reason because i think we do have busy lives and there's lots going on i know everyone does but we're dotted around everywhere and we're pulled from here to there and i think this is just where we go the world shuts down so even if you wanted to do stuff you couldn't yeah do you know what i mean everyone's doing the same thing with their families and i'm actually really looking forward to that so am i i can't wait i think we're better when we're together you know what i mean like better when we're together yeah we are of course we've always said that because when we're here they're everywhere well like when you're in in the golf course or in the pub with your mates and you know I'm sitting at home like getting all pissed off when you come back it's fine and you know well it's not because no because then you shout and scream and I just want to I just want to be back there

22:51time for giving how often am I at the fucking golf club to make you talk like this by the way every day once every day let's have a look we'll have a look we'll have a look I played golf what was it Friday and that was it I've had one Christmas lunch with my mates from the golf club and I've had one Christmas drinks with my pals from school I haven't seen for about three years did you go for a curry no we didn't actually because we just stayed in the park he didn't eat he didn't eat for ten hours you'd not go for a curry with them lads well yeah we normally do yeah but we're having so much fun yeah you know one of those that we just thought you get a bit full after a few beers as well although you're not a Guinness.

23:28And I'm like, you can think of a cooling hour, could you? So you just have 10 more pints of Guinness. You were on the zeros, weren't you? I did start on them, yeah. Didn't end on them. You were going to go meet your mate for your annual night out and you started on zero? No, you must have got mugged right off. No, I played golf first and I went on the zeros there. So the lads at the golf club were mugging me off. And then, because I thought it was a long day, right? And I thought, I need to go home and do a few, you know, some running around with the kids and stuff like that. picking him up from school while she was horse riding and then did that and then I did that as he had to do that and then then went out obviously that's a very sensible piece that you've matured I think you can if you tell that story correctly you went to play golf with your friends came home I fed you then you went out with your friends yeah yeah I did remember I had to do some running around with the kids I did it's not a lie what did you do I had to go and take Sophia to Zara's to her friends and had to pick up the kids from school bring them back and then go away I'm just saying get this man a medal it's Christmas this has been the least festive festive episode get this man a medal friggin medal for your bloody arse if only you knew if only I knew what nothing no comment that's a subtle hint for my Christmas friend agony abs okay agony abs festive themed be careful is what I'm saying things can be sent back Abigail things can be sent back it will be getting sent back because it'll be shit in our end of that right this is one of those call to arms little interludes in the podcast which I hate and I'm sure you hate as well but it actually does make a huge difference if you subscribe because we're making top quality content and if you want more of it, we need you to subscribe.

25:27So hit the button. Agony Abs. Hi, Pete and Ross. I'm stuck at a festive standoff and I don't know who's supposed to budge. My family does Christmas one way. Early start, chaotic kitchen, paper everywhere, Bucks Fizz by 9am. My partner's family's the opposite. Calm, slow, no presents until after lunch and absolutely no alcohol before noon. Oh God, posh. The first way is the only way. That sums up, I genuinely thought that was us early start I won't let the kids open a present until I've got my glass of Bucks Fizz on the go exactly yeah chaotic kitchen did you see that paper everywhere Bucks Fizz by nine that's standard that's standard okay did you see that I saw this thing on Instagram the other day and a mum had came down and she was getting up at seven and she came down with another baby and her two little ones had opened every single present without the mum and dad being there and the mum was so upset I know someone who's done that.

26:24Who? I can't remember who it was now. That's so naughty. It might be my cousin. It's opened everyone's presents. I can't believe that. People do that. We're not allowed to go down. I was allowed to go down until my mum said. Oh, Chloe would get me up at like five. We'd sneak down, look in the room, and then we'd bounce back off and be like, mum, we need to go down. She's like, it's five in the morning. We're like going down here. I hate that. He's been, he's been. Yeah. But anyway, they're calm. I know those people. it's usually older kids they've got teenagers yeah like because you can't contain we've got 6 7 and 10 like that and 14 I think 14 will be you know I think she could probably do a bit more time in bed but the baby's just one out of there 100 % is the most magical sound of you yeah I mean I can't wait to get down there and get some champagne on the go and the kids can't and the kids can't wait I've got loads of zeros someone has to be responsible for the kids, don't they?

27:25Got to do all that running around. Honest to God, I can't believe the lies that are coming out your mouth. Because if the kids need to go somewhere, I need to be responsible. This is actually our third Christmas together, and every year we've tried to blend traditions, which actually just means both sides feel disappointed. My mum thinks we're missing the magic. His parents think we're rushing everything. We can't please everyone, but I hate feeling like we're ruining Christmas just by existing as a couple. How do you choose which traditions win without starting a yearly argument? Why can't they just meet in the middle?

28:00Yeah, if you normally open presents at 12, we do at 10 or something. No, if they're getting up at seven, say let's get up at nine, we'll open half the presents before lunch with a glass of books fizz. Yeah. Then we'll have lunch and then we can have cheese and biscuits and a little Bailey's and open the rest and watch Christmas movie. That's very diplomatic of you. Well, yeah, very good. The other option is to have two Christmas days. Have one with their family and one with your family. But who does it on the actual? Alternate each year. Six, seven. Have you seen when you type six, seven into Google, the screen goes like that?

28:40No, I haven't seen that. The screen does that, yeah. Fair play. I think both of those answers are goers. Yeah, I think so. Because don't the young ones go out on Christmas Eve? I was not allowed what do you mean young it depends how young you're going 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 that age I think like yeah early 20s you may do yeah like 16 to unkid but with that you have to you have to be really careful 16 and upwards untrapped yeah by children yeah I think you have to be careful you don't ruin Christmas day because if you want to see in Christmas at the pub or somewhere at midnight you can easily creep into 2am there easily done and it can if you're hoping to be up at five, six scenario, you're going to struggle.

29:26Yeah. There's nothing worse than a hangover on Christmas Day. Yeah, I know. Just kind of waiting for it to be over, aren't you? Yeah. And then you're like... Where's the scrum, man? I'm starting. Oh, mum, please. Let's have a look at them picks and blankets, will you? Don't even come near me with that champagne.

29:45Yeah, we're going to... I like my nice Christmas break. I always do fried bread on Christmas Day. black pudding black pudding that's a go isn't it oh I love it we used to do a fry up but then no one could eat the dinner so me mum stopped doing them which is a killer but we do our dinner late yes we have an hour what time do you have yours we have hours like four four or five yeah but we're up we've got to remember we're eating breakfast at like seven eight yeah that's true eight o 'clock I reckon we've had breakfast yeah that's a good point big dog walk yeah obviously the presents would have been devoured by half six I know I do hate that I think we should do that you know no we can't wait now why don't we do we adults could maybe wait but the kids well we're not doing adults presents we've said no we're going to do an experience I forgot we weren't doing adult presents sorry mate we're going to carry on playing this game don't forget about that aspirin thing on your way out yeah text Claire now get it it's from Claire's shop number four boutique just text her now I got 30 % off codes as well today but you literally just said one sentence before so we weren't doing presents no I know this is insane you haven't got any presents you can wait all day mate you're waiting a very fucking long time agent provocateur sent me a nice little and it said slay queen on the bum pom poms that's what you can have totally that's one of the best presents you could ever get me hi team I don't want to be this person but Abby I feel like you'll have my back on this one and I can't vent to my boyfriend as I would normally since it involves him basically Christmas turns me into something who compares everything last year I put real thought into my partner's present listened all year, saved up planned it, then watched him open it and say, oh nice move straight on not only did I feel emotionally robbed by his shit, lukewarm reaction but I was also a little bit disappointed when he pulled out a random homemade hamper, which was clearly boots three for two sets bundled into an old basket he probably bought on Christmas Eve I feel awful even typing this but it's made me question whether effort is being matched how do you talk about gift disappointment without sounding ungrateful or petty well that's something that comes with time you have to earn those stripes so like back in the day when we were first together and I received these shit presents I'd be like oh thanks so much I love them you're amazing and now I'm just like Pete what the fuck is this yeah and the answer to without sounding ungrateful or petty, you will always sound ungrateful or petty.

32:21No, can I just say, can I just say, I actually work very hard. So I think it was, no, it wasn't last year. I got a great present last year. You did well last year. Oh yeah. Last year, the year before last, I thought, I'm not going to say anything. And I was like Roger Rabbit, knowing he's like got Tourette's and can't give it in. and as the day went on i just thought i'm just gonna have to get a couple of little digs in there little subtle digs yeah not so subtle digs and then and then it just went out to like why did you don't even know me why did you get me it's you've got all you've got 364 days to plan this you live with me you know what i like but i do i know to anyone listening i'm sounding like an ungrateful cow but it's just so ridiculous for these things

33:16like and it just it it it does become a little bit hurtful because at the same time when you're saying you want to think of your own things it is kind of like well you haven't thought because it's something that i really really don't like or want so my how I how I would get it it's like if you got it for me it you know it means classic line it does it means something to me famous line yeah but it does if you got me a fucking space suit I'd put it on and go you got it for me I sort of got it yeah how did you know you've been rooting you've been rooting no because I I'm a that's the difference between me and you you genuinely want the present and I genuinely want something from you i'm a thoughtful gift person i know we're joking around here and saying about all these you know silly gifts and we are taking the piss it is tongue in cheek um but christmas is not about that christmas is about being together being with the people you love and your family and you know the all this present like it's just for the kids to see the smiles on the faces you know like 100 % because that's that's what it's all about a suggestion of goodwill that's what it is that's what you know that's what it is it's not like you know it's not about getting things no you know what I mean it's about it's about for me we're ultimately messing around yeah and I think you know the kids situation it's great for them because they they love have you got Johnny a little steplander to go with that bike thing
