[00:00:00] Speaker A: So I'm having a little snack in the kitchen in the afternoon on this fine Wednesday that we're recording this. And Jen came over, whispered in my ear, can I have a little bit? And I said, yeah, of course you can. And so she grabbed a bit of carrot off the plate and she said, oh, I love a wet, cold carrot. And I was like, yeah, you do. You know, it's the Valentine's Day episode. This is what's going down. 17 years, marriage. Welcome to the show.
Happy Valentine's.
[00:00:47] Speaker B: Juicy would have been better.
[00:00:48] Speaker A: Juicy, juicy, juicy wet carrot.
[00:00:51] Speaker B: Juicy wet carrot or juicy cold carrot.
[00:00:53] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:00:53] Speaker B: Or juicy cold cucumber.
[00:00:56] Speaker A: Any of them really juicy cold cucumber.
[00:01:00] Speaker B: I don't know.
[00:01:02] Speaker A: I agree with you, though. I love a cold, wet carrot. What is that?
[00:01:07] Speaker B: Sweeter?
It's got that feeling that it's been pumped through a little bit of water. I don't know. Rather than the old one that's slightly bendy and doesn't break. When you take a carrot and you snap it in half, you can see it glistening.
[00:01:22] Speaker A: Oh, you're turning me on with your carrot chat. Yeah, I know what you mean. I mean, over the years, you've been taught to leave root vegetables outside on the counter.
Put those bad boys in the fridge.
[00:01:35] Speaker B: You can do that with potatoes, I believe, even though they get their eyes out all the time. But the carrots need to go in the fridge, mate.
[00:01:42] Speaker A: Get their eyes.
[00:01:43] Speaker B: They get their eyes out. They grow their eyes quicker, don't they? Potato eyes?
[00:01:46] Speaker A: Is that just a you thing?
[00:01:48] Speaker B: No. Is it called.
[00:01:52] Speaker A: I've never heard that in my life.
[00:01:54] Speaker B: Yes, you have also. You're the chef. Potatoes have eyes, don't they, guys?
[00:01:58] Speaker A: Sounds like a horror movie.
The potatoes have eyes.
[00:02:02] Speaker B: Potatoes have eyes, don't they?
Surprise.
[00:02:06] Speaker A: Welcome to the show. We're a bit bonkers delirious today because we get the opportunity to share another Valentine's Day with you all.
[00:02:13] Speaker B: It's the valentine's episode.
[00:02:15] Speaker A: It is indeed. Last year we did an episode called Meet Heart.
[00:02:19] Speaker B: No, we didn't. It was the happy as Larry.
[00:02:22] Speaker A: Oh, was it?
[00:02:23] Speaker B: I think it was, you know.
[00:02:24] Speaker A: Oh, well, wasn't, you know, when you had a date and he made a.
[00:02:30] Speaker B: Yes, but that was. Wasn't. Oh, maybe we directed everyone to the wrong episode last week. I don't know.
[00:02:36] Speaker A: I don't know.
[00:02:38] Speaker B: Find the Valentine's one from last year.
[00:02:41] Speaker A: But I'm really excited for this one because Jen and I have both done a little bit of prep, haven't we?
[00:02:47] Speaker B: Of course. I always do prep. Chris I always do prep. Always. I mean, yes, of course. I've been thinking about this for a week or so. How long did you think about it.
[00:02:57] Speaker A: For about 15 minutes. Yeah, right on to the first section. So I would like to talk something current.
[00:03:03] Speaker B: Let's roll the jingle.
[00:03:05] Speaker A: Let's roll the jingle. You just talk about old things.
[00:03:09] Speaker B: Well, you just talk about new stuff. Let's not talk about nothing.
[00:03:14] Speaker A: Let's talk something current.
[00:03:17] Speaker B: Let's talk something current.
[00:03:19] Speaker A: Boom.
[00:03:20] Speaker B: I wonder if that's the right key.
[00:03:21] Speaker A: Let's talk something current.
[00:03:24] Speaker B: Oh, that's interesting. I think you might be right.
[00:03:26] Speaker A: Thank you.
[00:03:26] Speaker B: Okay, let's see.
[00:03:28] Speaker A: So I've noticed we have. In the last six weeks, we've stayed in an awful lot. We certainly have, especially at weekends. And I have become strangely addicted to the world of weekend quizzing.
[00:03:41] Speaker B: Saturday night quizzing, particularly Saturday night, has.
[00:03:45] Speaker A: Just become a bit of a night of entertainment. I remember. You remember when you're younger and you're sat on a Saturday evening and you have from 04:00 till seven or eight, a solid array of highly entertaining shows. I'm talking gladiators, I'm talking Mr. Blobby, I'm talking generation game, I'm talking Wheel of Fortune, which is back.
[00:04:13] Speaker B: So good.
[00:04:14] Speaker A: Wheel of fortune, so good.
[00:04:15] Speaker B: And my personal fave go on. The limitless win.
[00:04:20] Speaker A: Limitless win with Anton Deck. Now, those of you that are listening in America or other countries, Anton Deck are like household names. They're like national treasure presenters over here.
[00:04:31] Speaker B: How would you compare them in America? Who are they in America?
[00:04:34] Speaker A: Oh, I don't know. Famous double act. There's a lot of. Imagine if you.
[00:04:38] Speaker B: Ryan Seacrest.
[00:04:39] Speaker A: Yeah, good. Or if you put Jimmy Fallon and Jimmy Kimmel together in a show doing.
[00:04:46] Speaker B: A quiz and knock 20 years off them both. Yes, something like that.
[00:04:50] Speaker A: Actually, they'd be. Actually, maybe they're about the same age now. So limitless win is a beauty because you just keep answering questions until you get one wrong and you could get up. They were up to 1.25 million.
[00:05:02] Speaker B: That's so exciting.
[00:05:04] Speaker A: Insane.
[00:05:05] Speaker B: So have you done a quiz for me?
[00:05:06] Speaker A: No, I haven't done a quiz for you. What I wanted to talk about is the reintroduction of who wants to be a millionaire? When I was growing up, who wants to be a millionaire? Thanks to Slumdog millionaire, the movie as well became like a huge thing, isn't it?
[00:05:21] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:05:21] Speaker A: Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but a million quid is a wonderful amount of money.
[00:05:27] Speaker B: Yeah, of course.
[00:05:28] Speaker A: But comparatively, these days it hasn't gone.
[00:05:31] Speaker B: Up with inflation, has it? No, hasn't risen with the rest of the world as. It's not in line with bacon at Tesco's anymore.
[00:05:39] Speaker A: It's not in line with a pack of bacon. That's exactly my point. It should be.
[00:05:45] Speaker B: You can't get as many packs of bacon for your million quid as you used to be able to.
[00:05:48] Speaker A: So I've got an idea. We should call it who wants to win 5 million quid?
[00:05:52] Speaker B: Nice. Or who wants to be a 1.5 millionaire?
[00:05:58] Speaker A: To align with inflation.
[00:06:00] Speaker B: Exactly. I can understand why this would have ground your gears a bit, but it did.
[00:06:04] Speaker A: But this is the point that I wanted to talk about in terms.
[00:06:08] Speaker B: We have a little visitor.
[00:06:09] Speaker A: Oh, we have a little visitor. Do you want to say hi, Fred, the iPad yet?
[00:06:12] Speaker B: The only problem is, my darling, is that mum's origin of words is all lined up on here. But I really need it. Well, if you really need it, I'll.
[00:06:20] Speaker A: Have to read up what's more important, our podcast or you gaming?
[00:06:26] Speaker B: My gaming.
[00:06:27] Speaker A: Right, okay.
[00:06:31] Speaker B: Go on then.
There goes my prep.
[00:06:35] Speaker A: There we go. Right, your preps out the window.
[00:06:38] Speaker B: Hang on a minute.
[00:06:40] Speaker A: Right. It's something current, but it's also a bit of a grind as well. You don't need to do the theme tune because everyone knows the theme tune.
[00:06:45] Speaker B: Which is the best. Absolutely.
[00:06:48] Speaker A: But this is my grind. Okay. When people go on quiz shows where. Let's talk about the majority of quiz shows in England, people are winning between a 1004.
[00:07:04] Speaker B: Tipping point.
[00:07:05] Speaker A: Classic tipping point. You're talking the Chase, you're talking lingo, you're talking all these classic british quizzes that are on around tea time and the kids have just got home from school and I'm watching them.
[00:07:19] Speaker B: You really haven't got a job at the moment.
[00:07:21] Speaker A: But I have got a job and I can tell everyone in a minute.
But these quizzes are giving out like three, four grand. Here's my gripe. The presenter will then say to the contestant, so what are you going to do with your 2000 pounds? And they'll go, I'm going to go on a world cruise.
[00:07:40] Speaker B: No, you're not.
I really wish you well with that, but good luck.
[00:07:44] Speaker A: But you're not. I've always wanted to go to Tokyo, so I'm going to fly business class to Tokyo. No, you're not.
You have no idea how much everything costs.
[00:07:53] Speaker B: If you go back to 1998, there's a small, slight possibility that that will fly.
[00:07:58] Speaker A: But, yeah, they're talking about, oh, I've never flown business. I'm going to fly business. Well, you can bloody fly business from England to Scotland if you like, but you're not going any further than that. So I just thought they have to reintroduce higher prizes, better prizes.
[00:08:17] Speaker B: Well, they're not struggling to fill the gaps, are they? At the moment, that's the problem, Chris. People still want to play the games at the lower prices, so there's no incentive. Why would they raise the stakes?
[00:08:26] Speaker A: So then, after our chat about who wants to be a millionaire, I said, who would your phone a friend be to Jen? All right? Hoping secretly that she'd be like, well, obviously I'd call you because you're so smart and worldly wise.
[00:08:40] Speaker B: Well, you are smart.
[00:08:41] Speaker A: Yeah. So while you went first, right, I'd call my dad.
[00:08:45] Speaker B: I wouldn't say you're worldly wise.
[00:08:46] Speaker A: Yeah, I'm very wisely worlded.
[00:08:50] Speaker B: You are worldly wise. I always think I'm more worldly wise than you. Yeah, but you're very knowledgeable.
[00:08:55] Speaker A: You're on the show, right? You don't know a question. Yes, I'd like to phone a friend. I'd use one of my lifelines. Yeah.
[00:09:02] Speaker B: I'd call you for sport, I'd call you for general knowledge, because you're very, very good.
[00:09:10] Speaker A: Thank you.
[00:09:10] Speaker B: I'd call my dad for geography, but.
[00:09:14] Speaker A: This is what I was going to say. I said, who are you three?
[00:09:17] Speaker B: Oh, yeah.
[00:09:18] Speaker A: And you said, well, my dad. And I was like, okay, yeah, that's cool. He's a clever guy. That's understandable.
[00:09:23] Speaker B: He knows a bit about a lot.
[00:09:25] Speaker A: And then you went, then I'd probably call Mike, who's our neighbor down the road.
Right. And so I was like, okay, just secretly going, I must be third then. And she said, and third, probably Jen, who's married to Mike.
And so I'm not even in the top three. I'm like a fourth. I'm a reserve call.
[00:09:50] Speaker B: Listen, if it was a question about 1990s pop boy bands, I would give you a call, mate.
[00:09:57] Speaker A: I'm your man.
[00:09:58] Speaker B: Let's talk something.
[00:10:01] Speaker A: As a side note before we go on to your wonderful poem or what have you done? A poem?
[00:10:06] Speaker B: Not telling you what I've done. I'm just going to surprise you with it. Well, it's not surprising. It's a bit boring, but great.
[00:10:14] Speaker A: What a pitch.
[00:10:15] Speaker B: It's not boring. I think it's really interesting.
[00:10:18] Speaker A: I can't wait for this. Jen's boring segment. Oh, hang on, there's probably a jingle for that. Roll the jingle. Jen's. Got something a little bit boring to tell.
[00:10:33] Speaker B: Who says?
[00:10:40] Speaker A: Right, so this is the first ever Jen's boring segment.
[00:10:44] Speaker B: Well, you can't say that. It's just.
[00:10:45] Speaker A: Well, that's how you pitched it.
[00:10:47] Speaker B: It's not origin of words, but it's kind of a similar thing. It's like the origin of a word.
[00:10:53] Speaker A: Oh, my God. Right, okay.
[00:10:55] Speaker B: Origin of a name.
[00:10:57] Speaker A: Origin of a name. All right. And I will be the judge of whether it's a boring segment or not. Okay, go on, then.
[00:11:03] Speaker B: Who was St. Valentine?
[00:11:06] Speaker A: I don't know. Was he french? I've got a feeling he's french.
[00:11:10] Speaker B: Well, actually, interestingly, I think he was think.
[00:11:15] Speaker A: Haven't you got the info in front of him?
[00:11:16] Speaker B: I did a bit of research.
Hang on, let me just scan my Google Document again.
The identity of savantine is up for debate because there's a couple of. A little bit like the meaning behind Boxing Day that we did.
[00:11:31] Speaker A: Okay. Yeah.
[00:11:31] Speaker B: There's lots of different origins, but people think that it was Emperor Claudius II of Rome. He executed two different people who were both called Valentine within a year of each other. One of them was on the 14 February, and this is during the third century. So this is a long, long time ago. And one of the accounts says that St. Valentine was a priest who was arrested for defying a roman decree because at the time, the soldiers weren't allowed to get married. Marriage was seen to be a distraction from performing in battle properly. So he was executed for the crime of continuing to wed lovers in secret.
So he was know Mr. Valentine, or priest Valentine, or whatever they called him at the time, Dave Valentine. And then, of course, became a martyr because he got his head chopped off for marrying people who weren't supposed to be getting married. The other story, the other notion is that it was to do with yet another priest who was imprisoned and fell in love with one of his visitors and began writing beautiful love letters to her. And according to history, just before his execution, he signed off to this woman in his letter. From your Valentine. But obviously, meaning from your Valentine, as in, like saying, like, from your Chris. From your gear or whatever.
[00:12:56] Speaker A: From your Dave Valentine.
[00:12:59] Speaker B: Exactly. So obviously, both of these stories have romantic undertones.
[00:13:04] Speaker A: Yeah, they kind of do. But one of them was beheaded and.
[00:13:07] Speaker B: The other one was beheaded.
[00:13:09] Speaker A: So they were both beheaded, but they both got one of the most popular annual dates named after them.
[00:13:16] Speaker B: Well, no, the conclusion that we can come to is that Valentine's day was named for a martyred St. Valentine. We don't know which one it was. And apparently there's been loads of them.
[00:13:26] Speaker A: Well, now it's about buying overpriced chocolate and roses.
[00:13:29] Speaker B: It certainly is. And I haven't seen any of those yet today. Chris.
No, don't expect any, to be honest. I just want a big kiss and a nice cold, wet carrot.
[00:13:46] Speaker A: So my washboard stomach's coming along.
[00:13:50] Speaker B: Here we go.
[00:13:50] Speaker A: I'm only allowed to mention it once, so it is quite washboardy. It's getting there.
[00:13:56] Speaker B: The irony being that actually nobody ever uses a washboard anymore.
[00:13:59] Speaker A: No one knows. And the majority of people that have a inverted commas washboard stomach have no idea what a washboard is. So why do they call it that?
[00:14:10] Speaker B: Do you know what a washboard is?
[00:14:12] Speaker A: Yeah, it was.
Yeah, it was like a.
[00:14:15] Speaker B: It's like a slatted piece of wood that you sort of used to wash your clothes on.
[00:14:21] Speaker A: Yeah, there's none of them anymore, is there? But at the moment, it's still kind of like, I know, a two pack, God rest his soul. But now it's on its way to a six pack, so I'm very excited.
[00:14:34] Speaker B: Yeah, well, you should be. You're working very hard.
[00:14:36] Speaker A: So we're going off to America soon, aren't we?
[00:14:39] Speaker B: We are. We're very excited.
[00:14:41] Speaker A: Yes. As we mentioned earlier, I have a new fanfare. Jen, add a bit of fanfare.
[00:14:48] Speaker B: Ready?
[00:14:48] Speaker A: Go.
Very good fanfare.
[00:14:54] Speaker B: Thanks, mate.
[00:14:55] Speaker A: I liked it.
[00:14:55] Speaker B: Professional.
[00:14:56] Speaker A: Finally. I'm so excited. So grateful to be back acting again. Not back acting like all of me. All of me acting.
Yes. I'm going to New York, New York. I'm going to have, like they said in. You're the worst. I'm going to have coffee and a pizza buiegel.
[00:15:16] Speaker B: Oh, I'm so gel.
[00:15:18] Speaker A: Yeah, I cannot wait. I'm going to stay. I don't know where they're going to put me up. Probably some sort of travel in and I'm doing a movie. I can't talk about it just yet, but it's super exciting and it's with some of my absolute comedy heroes.
[00:15:35] Speaker B: This is very exciting.
[00:15:37] Speaker A: I'm super excited. So we will reveal all, but I will be away for a couple of weeks, but we'll still try and do the show, shall we?
[00:15:44] Speaker B: Yeah, absolutely. Of course we'll try. And also, we have come up with a way that we can give away a free I love you but mug.
[00:15:54] Speaker A: Oh, yes. Weren't we talking about this last week?
[00:15:56] Speaker B: We were, and then we didn't have any ideas of how to do it and I thought, well, let's just keep it simple.
[00:16:01] Speaker A: What are we doing?
[00:16:02] Speaker B: Well, we're going to say to our lovely listeners, all you need to do.
[00:16:06] Speaker A: Yeah. Is it like one of those tv questions where you have to say, what citrus fruit is yellow? And people go, oh, my God, I know that. I know that. And then they have to write in and say, lime.
[00:16:19] Speaker B: Go on, lime. Brilliant. Yeah, it's along those lines.
[00:16:23] Speaker A: So what do people have to do to win this extraordinary prize?
[00:16:27] Speaker B: We thought it would be very hilarious to receive an email that said, mug me off from anyone who wants a mug.
[00:16:34] Speaker A: So just to clarify, if you want to win a mug that says, I.
[00:16:39] Speaker B: Love you, butt on it, all you.
[00:16:41] Speaker A: Have to do is send an email saying, mugmeoff to
[email protected]. How do you spell gears, gweres?
[00:16:55] Speaker B: And how do you spell ears?
[00:16:57] Speaker A: The normal way.
[00:16:58] Speaker B: The normal way, exactly.
[00:17:00] Speaker A: And we're going to take all the emails and we're going to put them in a hat. Put them in a hat. And then we're going to pick it out. And then whoever wins, we'll get in touch with them, they'll send us their address and we'll send you a mug.
[00:17:13] Speaker B: Yes, mate. Merch.
[00:17:15] Speaker A: Merch. Merch. Merch. Merch. Merch. Merch. Mug me off. Mug. Mug. Mug. Don't mug me off.
[00:17:21] Speaker B: Do mug me off.
[00:17:21] Speaker A: Do mug.
[00:17:22] Speaker B: Don't do mug me off. That's the whole point.
[00:17:23] Speaker A: This is our new kind of jingle for this. Like, it's competition time.
Are there any Valentine's days between us that you remember?
Is that. That pause was ridiculously long.
17 of them, mate.
[00:17:47] Speaker B: What on earth have we done for Valentine's days?
Every day is Valentine's Day.
[00:17:54] Speaker A: There you go. Recovered.
[00:17:58] Speaker B: But no joke.
[00:17:59] Speaker A: I can't remember.
[00:17:59] Speaker B: It is really, because we've always been those people that go, well, I'm not going to bloody take you out on Valentine's night, play double the price for everything and everybody beat. I think it's always been fun just to kind of hang out and cook a steak at home or whatever. So we've never really done anything to mark the occasion. Apart from the fact that I think when you were away on Valentine's, you might have sent me flowers once.
[00:18:23] Speaker A: Did I?
[00:18:24] Speaker B: You always sent me flowers on my birthday and things like that. It was really sweet.
[00:18:27] Speaker A: So I'm not going to cook you a special meal, I'm just going to cook you a meal.
[00:18:32] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:18:33] Speaker A: Let's pretend it's your last meal. The last Supper.
[00:18:37] Speaker B: Oh, my God. How depressing is that? For Valentine's Day.
[00:18:41] Speaker A: It's like a little thing. Like, what would you have if it was your last meal?
[00:18:47] Speaker B: I hate that question. I feel so stressed out. I don't know. And it's not even real.
[00:18:53] Speaker A: Have you not like, when people talk, they go, right, your last meal ever. What are you having?
[00:18:57] Speaker B: Last week he was like, what would you.
[00:18:59] Speaker A: You're not having a salad, are you?
[00:19:01] Speaker B: I don't know. I do like salad.
[00:19:02] Speaker A: I'd have. I boxed it off straight away. Mool marinaire. Love that. And then I'd have lobster steak and chips. Like a proper surf and turf, right? And then I'd have a chocolate taut.
[00:19:15] Speaker B: Oh, interesting. Chocolate mousse would be my chocolate mousse.
[00:19:19] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:19:19] Speaker B: I love a chocolate mousse. But a light one.
[00:19:21] Speaker A: What about you? Starter one?
[00:19:23] Speaker B: I'm going backwards. Change it up. I'm going to do a thick, dark chocolate mousse. Then I'm going to move backwards and I'm going to do. What's my favorite? I'd probably do, like a ravioli of some description in like a beautiful ariabata sauce or something. Or maybe I'd have a cream sauce because I was going to die.
[00:19:42] Speaker A: Yeah, you go full cream.
[00:19:43] Speaker B: Full cream. And then maybe going back for the starter. Well, I mean, I do like a nice tomato soup. Heinz tomato soup.
[00:19:51] Speaker A: Very tomato based. Isn't it your meal?
[00:19:53] Speaker B: Yeah, I suppose it is. Or I might have pate.
[00:19:55] Speaker A: You'd be like, on your deathbed. You'd be on your deathbed. Oh, it's a lot of tomato.
But if it's your last meal ever you'd be inclined to think, oh, I.
[00:20:06] Speaker B: Quite like your risotto with I'm not.
[00:20:08] Speaker A: Cooking for you on your last meal.
Right. So I have going along the lines of what we've been talking about already plus the theme of the episode, which is Valentine's. Exactly. And what have we been talking about a lot?
[00:20:26] Speaker B: Quizzes.
[00:20:27] Speaker A: Yes. So we're going to do a Valentine's quiz. Would you like to participate in quizzantine?
[00:20:33] Speaker B: Yes. Go on. Then.
[00:20:34] Speaker A: It's a tv related Valentine's quiz. So I'm going to need some sweet ass music in the background. You ready?
[00:20:41] Speaker B: Coming in. Here we go. I'll hit it.
[00:20:44] Speaker A: Okay. Jen, question one. Hit it. Excellent. In the Friends episode the one with the candy hearts who does Joey accidentally set Chandler up with on Valentine's Day?
[00:20:59] Speaker B: Janice.

[00:21:17] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:21:18] Speaker B: And the first one, the only one I can think of is crazy in love.
No, crazy love. Crazy, stupid love.
[00:21:25] Speaker A: Correct. And lot of dancing around.
[00:21:30] Speaker B: Oh, yes. I know. La. The LA thing.
[00:21:33] Speaker A: Yeah. It wasn't called the LA thing. Musical.

[00:21:46] Speaker A: And they were also in a movie called Gangster Squad, which I didn't know, actually, but the answer was three.
[00:21:51] Speaker B: Oh, lucky Emma Stone.
[00:21:52] Speaker A: Next question. Jen, can you recite the famous line uttered by Julia Roberts at the end of the classic rom.com Nottinghill?
[00:22:03] Speaker B: Oh, right. No clue.
[00:22:07] Speaker A: Do you want a clue?
[00:22:09] Speaker B: Is it.
Oh, I'm just a girl standing in front of a boy waiting for her to love me.
[00:22:15] Speaker A: What?
[00:22:19] Speaker B: I'm just a girl standing in front of a boy asking him to love her. No.
[00:22:23] Speaker A: Yes. That was good. What was the first asking her to love. Who?

So, Jen, hello. What is the best selling. Hello. Yes, what is the best selling love song of all time? According to the UK charts, which spent 15 weeks at number one and.
[00:23:08] Speaker B: Will always love you.

[00:23:20] Speaker A: Or if you really want to pronounce your words, wet wet wet wet. Just like that. Carrot.
According to the US Billboard, which romantic song, a classic 1987 duet, is the most successful of all time, peaking at number one in the US charts for nine weeks.
[00:23:44] Speaker B: I'm going to go for Aretha Franklin, George Michael. The valley was high. I didn't fall to.
[00:23:53] Speaker A: What about this?
I was trying to remember how it went and I can't remember. Endless love by Diana Ross and Lionel Ritchie. How's it going?
[00:24:03] Speaker B: You're only you in my life.
[00:24:06] Speaker A: You're only you in my life the.
[00:24:09] Speaker B: Only thing that's right.
[00:24:12] Speaker A: My first love.
You're every breath that I take you're every step I make and I have a bell question. Victoria and David Beckham have been married since 1999, but can you remember who was their very special ring bearer?
[00:24:52] Speaker B: Now, I think she was pregnant with Brooklyn or. No, they'd had pregnant. I think it must have been Brooklyn. I think he. No, because he was too little or she was pregnant with him.
I don't know. David's niece.
[00:25:09] Speaker A: David's niece, the very special ring bearer was not David's niece. It was, in fact, Brooklyn.
[00:25:17] Speaker B: Oh, shit. I should have gone for it.
[00:25:19] Speaker A: You should have gone for your first answer rather than something crap.
Right, so that's it for today's show. We hope you have a wonderful Valentine's celebration, everyone, whatever you're doing, whether you're cozying up, watching a quiz at home, or you're going out for a really overpriced meal. So true. Have a wonderful time. We love you and we love each other.
[00:25:43] Speaker B: Happy Valentine's Day.
[00:25:45] Speaker A: Happy Valentine's Day, everyone.
[00:25:47] Speaker B: Goodbye. Bye bye.
[00:25:52] Speaker A: Go on, give us a kiss.
[00:25:54] Speaker B: We didn't actually kiss then, did we just pretend?
[00:25:56] Speaker A: No, do it on the mic, because that's what you do in the world of radio. We're not radio proper. No, I don't want to give you a proper kiss. That's like, was I a good kisser, like always, or have I grown into it?
[00:26:07] Speaker B: Yeah, you've always been a good kisser. I remember the first night I was like, yeah, I'm going to stick with this one.
[00:26:12] Speaker A: Did I have good techers?
[00:26:13] Speaker B: Yeah, good techs. But you were. Feel a bit heavy on content.
[00:26:17] Speaker A: What does that mean?
[00:26:18] Speaker B: There's a lot of saliva involved.
[00:26:20] Speaker A: It's a wet activity.
[00:26:22] Speaker B: I prefer less saliva.
[00:26:24] Speaker A: But you don't want a dog at dinner time.
[00:26:27] Speaker B: No.
Close.
