16
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 5: will I find that special someone? Or Well, this experiment

17
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:08,160
Speaker 5: proved that I should just give up on dating altogether.

18
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:10,399
Speaker 2: It's time to find out.

19
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:15,400

00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:24,760
Speaker 3: Hey Grace, Hello, So who do we have today? So

21
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:28,120
Speaker 3: this is a guy called Ewan Who I like that name.

22
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:30,960
Speaker 3: I like the name Yuan as well. Is you an

23
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:34,319
Speaker 3: Irish or Scottish? I think it's Scottish. Well, maybe I

24
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 3: just honestly associated with Umancgre's.

25
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:39,960
Speaker 5: Name same, it's a fit name. So he was called Ewan.

26
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:43,640
Speaker 5: He was Australian. I met him on an app called Bristler.

27
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 5: When I say that word, what do you think?

28
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 4: Bristley like Bristoley beer.

29
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:55,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, so it's basically an app yeah for bearded people

30
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 5: and for people who like bearded people. Okay, well now

31
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 5: I have to say I don't know about you, but

32
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:05,639
Speaker 5: whenever I've dated someone with a bed, my skin gets

33
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:09,920
Speaker 5: so bad, like around my chin, and it just like

34
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 5: I can't, I honestly can't fuck with beers. I'll be honest,

35
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:13,800
Speaker 5: and I don't like the way that it makes me

36
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 5: feel on my face. I'm fine with like you know,

37
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 5: you know my ex had like you know, a really

38
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 5: cool mustache or like you know, a bit of a beer,

39
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:22,800
Speaker 5: but like not, like you know, a dramatic bed. So

40
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 5: what do you think of it?

41
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:25,399
Speaker 4: I don't.

42
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 3: I'm not I'm not here for beards. You would never

43
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 3: find me on Bristler. Like my legs are pretty briskly

44
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,680
Speaker 3: because I'm bad of shaving them, but I like some stubble.

45
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 3: I'm not into beards, So I have a weird thing

46
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 3: about like if I see someone who has a beard

47
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:39,959
Speaker 3: and even a food that I just think of germs.

48
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:43,720
Speaker 5: And also like, I'm sorry when somebody drinks a pint

49
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 5: and then they have the beer on the top of

50
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:50,640
Speaker 5: the mustache, but the mustache is so long, like it's

51
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:51,640
Speaker 5: so grim to me.

52
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:53,760
Speaker 3: I just I can't get on board. I'm so sorry

53
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:55,800
Speaker 3: to anyone has a beard out there. But like there's

54
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 3: plenty of people who are into it.

55
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,079
Speaker 4: Go on Bristler, No, go on Bristler.

56
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 3: This episode sponsored by Bristler.

57
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,359
Speaker 2: The app that we found you on is an app

58
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:12,320
Speaker 2: to give with beds.

59
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:13,680
Speaker 3: How long have you been on that?

60
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,520
Speaker 6: I think I first jumped on it like in twenty fourteen.

61
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:18,080
Speaker 4: If you always had a bed since.

62
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:21,800
Speaker 6: Twenty twelve, okay, yeah, And I just sort of jumped

63
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 6: on it just to see not like anything. So I've

64
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:28,799
Speaker 6: never been on tinder Bumble No, never, no, or ever

65
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 6: like hand on my heart. Bristler is the only one

66
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 6: that I've ever used it.

67
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:36,280
Speaker 7: Wow, And have you not ever just been tepended to

68
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 7: use one of the other app If you're on an

69
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 7: app that is like literally advertised at people, Yeah, I

70
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 7: do like beards, then they're not going to be like

71
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 7: you've got a beard kind of thing.

72
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 6: So that's that's literally, that's that's the sole reason for it.

73
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 3: I get that, Yeah, but like I just didn't think

74
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 3: that people had an issue like that.

75
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 6: So many they probably don't. That's just all me.

76
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 5: Can I just say, I'm obsessed with him saying that

77
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 5: that he has had a beard.

78
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:06,600
Speaker 2: Since since twenty twelve. Yeah, I'm trying to think, who are.

79
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 5: The women going on Bristler because it's such a specific

80
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 5: thing to want to meet someone with a beard, because

81
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:16,360
Speaker 5: there are loads of beard and people on other dating apps,

82
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,720
Speaker 5: so to want it that much, Like, what do you

83
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:19,520
Speaker 5: think that's about?

84
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 3: I have a few friends, particularly Won. Her boyfriends are

85
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,279
Speaker 3: all carbon copies of each other, and they all have

86
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 3: dark hair and have big beards.

87
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:30,720
Speaker 4: So she thing for beards. So I think it must

88
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 4: be like a trade.

89
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:34,560
Speaker 3: It must be like you know, like if you like

90
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 3: tall guys, it's the same, like you know, you have

91
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 3: a specific thing that.

92
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 4: You go for.

93
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,279
Speaker 3: It's just funny that there's actually an app for Like,

94
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 3: I wish there was an app for all guys. It'sn't grace,

95
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:45,800
Speaker 3: you're in prime position to create one, and what would

96
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:46,279
Speaker 3: it be called?

97
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 2: It would be called give head standing up.

98
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 5: So on Bristler was it said that he's in the

99
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 5: top twenty five best beards and then hundred klometers of me.

100
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,159
Speaker 2: Right, I don't know what that means.

101
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 4: Sorry, the app rates the beards.

102
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:08,720
Speaker 2: It must mean he's really popular on bristoler i'ven just.

103
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 3: Looking through his profile here and thirty five Australian Londoner

104
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:17,599
Speaker 3: tall tall enough talks enough humorous that's debatable. He said

105
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 3: that himself, not me. I'm not being mean dad jokes. Yeah,

106
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 3: he does actually seem like someone whose out a few

107
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 3: dad jokes like sorry, this is a perfect example. Can

108
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 3: cook woman at rice in fifty eight seconds?

109
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 4: Come on?

110
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 2: Exactly exactly.

111
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 5: He reminded me of like a sort of American comedy actor, Like, yeah,

112
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 5: I don't know, but what do you think of his bit?

113
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a solid one. In fairness, it's not a bit.

114
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,720
Speaker 3: I just personally would rather the beard be shorter. Yeah,

115
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 3: but also it's not too long. It's not like it's

116
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:47,840
Speaker 3: like along with the one that he can plait. It's nice,

117
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 3: that's true, but it's still a bit is a probably

118
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 3: it's a proper one.

119
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:53,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's full.

120
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:55,920
Speaker 5: That's why he's in the top twenty five because that's

121
00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 5: a solid bit.

122
00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's got great hairline.

123
00:05:58,160 --> 00:05:59,480
Speaker 2: He's got really good hair as well.

124
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:02,240
Speaker 4: Solid i'd give him.

125
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:06,000
Speaker 3: Now, bear in mind, I'm not a beard expertise, but

126
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,280
Speaker 3: i would give him a solid nine out of ten.

127
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 2: Wowee yay, good feedback. Well, that's why he's in the

128
00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 2: top twenty five.

129
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:14,600
Speaker 4: So he's on this amazing app.

130
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 3: You have introduced us to this amazing new app for

131
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 3: anyone listening who's into beers who did not know it existed, Yeah,

132
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:21,480
Speaker 3: there's anche there for you.

133
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, but he actually said that Bristoler wasn't all that amazing.

134
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:27,159
Speaker 6: I'm not sure what it's like using it from the

135
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,359
Speaker 6: female perspective, and I'll be very interested to hear what.

136
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, well you could look.

137
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:34,919
Speaker 6: Yeah, but from a nail who's using it, there's a

138
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:38,360
Speaker 6: lot of like catfishing in bots going on. Oh mate,

139
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:41,039
Speaker 6: it's hilarious. Like usually they waited about sort of like

140
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:44,040
Speaker 6: three or four sentences before they're like, can't pay your rend,

141
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,080
Speaker 6: bah blah blah, and I'm like, ah, here we go.

142
00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 4: Yeah.

143
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 5: Oh because me, it's me and I'm stuck in Australia.

144
00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:58,760
Speaker 5: I've got nothing but Foster's can can you prepend me

145
00:06:58,760 --> 00:06:59,840
Speaker 5: his two thousand pounds?

146
00:06:59,839 --> 00:06:59,919
Speaker 6: Now?

147
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:04,840
Speaker 3: You know what though, like I'd say, oh god, well,

148
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 3: it's such a niche app you'd be surprised if that happens.

149
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, I know, but then maybe in a way it's

150
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 5: kind of easier to do it on a really niche app.

151
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, So, like, are you into body hair and guys? Like,

152
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,239
Speaker 3: do you like someone who has like hairy chest wax

153
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 3: chess like like waxed fully down there?

154
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,040
Speaker 4: Like what what's your preference?

155
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 2: I don't necessarily have a preference.

156
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 3: I'm not obsessed with like really really hairy backs like

157
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 3: that does a bit give me the ech.

158
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,360
Speaker 2: I also just like probably if I was gonna say I.

159
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,560
Speaker 3: Have a preference, I sound like a fucking man when

160
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 3: I say this, But if I was gonna have a preference,

161
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 3: it would be like, hell, let's but I sound like

162
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 3: a man. It's funny, Like I actually think it's really

163
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:43,480
Speaker 3: it is really important to be honest because like I'm

164
00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 3: the same and if you hadn't said it there, I

165
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 3: would be.

166
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:46,720
Speaker 4: Like Jesus, that's really harsh.

167
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:50,360
Speaker 3: But probably because I fully wax everything, Yeah that I

168
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 3: just prefer I just feel like quite clean when I

169
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 3: do that I would prefer that as well, But like

170
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:57,760
Speaker 3: I do think there comes a stage if you're dating

171
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:01,080
Speaker 3: someone in a relationship where that's probably isn't as important

172
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 3: as it was at the start.

173
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:04,240
Speaker 2: I think that's definitely true.

174
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:07,200
Speaker 5: And you know, it's like, I'm someone I like prefer

175
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 5: myself wax, but I'm so disorganized that often I haven't

176
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:11,960
Speaker 5: had a wax, you know what I mean. Like, I'm

177
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,160
Speaker 5: so busy and I find having a wax like takes

178
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 5: like an hour out of my day, So I can't

179
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,160
Speaker 5: really chat because sometimes I'll have sex with a hairy,

180
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 5: fucking vagina.

181
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 2: But it's like as.

182
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:21,680
Speaker 3: Saying what I just said out loud, where I'm like,

183
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:23,040
Speaker 3: you know, I'm like over to everything, but I would

184
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 3: prefer if their hair is Like that's what men say

185
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 3: all the time. They're like, you know, like I don't

186
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 3: mind it if they have a bush, but I would

187
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 3: prefer if.

188
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:29,679
Speaker 2: They were hairless.

189
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:31,920
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, Can I just say when you introduced the

190
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,960

00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,719
Speaker 6: There you go next time and Boiled. Then you can

216
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,080
Speaker 6: just drag out one of those photos in a way.

217
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:39,760
Speaker 2: That picture it's not loaded.

218
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:44,679
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's that's the one on the right. Yeah yeah

219
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:46,440
Speaker 6: without I mean, she won't be jumping out of any

220
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:48,959
Speaker 6: cakes anytime soon, but you know, good for it.

221
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:51,839
Speaker 3: I didn't know who Richard Osmond was either, and so

222
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 3: I looked it up and I actually almost fell off

223
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 3: my chair.

224
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:58,079
Speaker 4: He looks nothing like him, absolutely no, But until.

225
00:09:57,800 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 3: I saw this one photo and I went to that

226
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 3: that because Richindalsman doesn't have a beard usually.

227
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 2: But then I was like, he's giving me Richard and I'm.

228
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:10,120
Speaker 3: Sorry, well, I'm sorry, they do look similar in this.

229
00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:12,200
Speaker 5: But then I felt bad because I was like, you

230
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 5: don't like Riginalsman. And then he was like, what does

231
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:15,679
Speaker 5: he look like? And then we googled him and it's

232
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 5: like the first few pictures he looked nothing like him.

233
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:19,480
Speaker 2: And then I was like, I'm.

234
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:21,199
Speaker 5: Not gonna argue my point here because I hate it

235
00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:22,439
Speaker 5: when people tell me that I look like.

236
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:25,520
Speaker 2: Susan Boyle, not the original. I'm not anyway.

237
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:27,560
Speaker 5: I'm not going to get into slippery slope here of

238
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 5: comparing richinalds On and Susan boil.

239
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 2: So Ross.

240
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:47,079
Speaker 5: He was like big into beer. He was drinking guinness.

241
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,199
Speaker 5: He did keep getting it on his massage. I will

242
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:51,600
Speaker 5: say I wanted to tell him, but I felt like

243
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,959
Speaker 5: I can't because we've spoken enough about his beard.

244
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 2: But he was big into beer, right, and one of

245
00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:57,880
Speaker 2: his side.

246
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 5: Hustles is he does like tours at this brewer in London,

247
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:04,040
Speaker 5: so he like loved beer. But then we were talking

248
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 5: about Foster's and he was saying that basically when he

249
00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,679
Speaker 5: came here, he was like, everybody thinks Foster's is like Australian,

250
00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:12,000
Speaker 5: but actually it's gone having to do in Australia. And

251
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,720
Speaker 5: then he he's always the whole story, not that I

252
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 5: really like give a ship because I've never drunk Fosters

253
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,679
Speaker 5: in my life. Can you talk me through the Fosters thing?

254
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 5: So in Australia, it's like disgusting.

255
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:24,240
Speaker 6: It doesn't exist in Australia. So when you came here,

256
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 6: I bought it all with me. That's why I doesn't

257
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:30,600
Speaker 6: exist in Australia anymore. So. No, so it started off

258
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 6: it was made in Melbourne originally, but funnily enough, it

259
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:40,439
Speaker 6: stopped being made in Australia around about the nineties because

260
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 6: everyone started drinking it here and no one was drinking

261
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 6: it in Australia, so they just.

262
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:45,960
Speaker 2: They were making it in Australia.

263
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,679
Speaker 6: No would I say it doesn't exist in Australia.

264
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,160
Speaker 2: It doesn't exist like at all.

265
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 5: In the slightest bit here on the branding does it

266
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 5: say it's like says.

267
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:58,800
Speaker 6: From Australia, because that's where it originally came from, but

268
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:02,439
Speaker 6: it's made here in the UK entirely. If you went

269
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:06,160
Speaker 6: to Australia to go and find a Foster's, first and foremost,

270
00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 6: why do you go all the way to Australia.

271
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:10,000
Speaker 2: Just look, foster You've got it in the courner.

272
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:14,120
Speaker 6: Probably wasted a flight. It really doesn't exist. You can't

273
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:14,920
Speaker 6: find it there.

274
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:17,160
Speaker 2: In England.

275
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,920
Speaker 5: Foster's is marketed as this big Australian beer and everybody

276
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,040
Speaker 5: thinks like it's the way that you know, we know

277
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:26,079
Speaker 5: Guinness to be Irish was That's how like Foster's is

278
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 5: being marketed. But we're just sold like a huge lie.

279
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 3: Whoa, that was like our fun fact of the day.

280
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:33,880
Speaker 2: I love that shit. Yeah, I love stuff like that.

281
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:37,360
Speaker 3: So I just like when you talked about having like

282
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 3: phoney beer on his beard.

283
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,480
Speaker 2: I really just it's a horrid moment.

284
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 3: Look he's doing fine, he's on that app he is like,

285
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:48,720
Speaker 3: oh my god, he's probably lows people are into beards.

286
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 3: But yeah, I just find that and look I find

287
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:52,240
Speaker 3: it with anually, even if some of his food and

288
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:54,840
Speaker 3: their hair on their face, I'm like, get that off. No.

289
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:58,200
Speaker 5: Also, you know when someone has beer on their like

290
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,000
Speaker 5: bed or mustache, so they do this thing. Obviously listeners

291
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,320
Speaker 5: can't see us, but it's the way they like lick

292
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:04,200
Speaker 5: it off their bed.

293
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:08,440
Speaker 2: But they go like that and it's so proper. Gives

294
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:08,960
Speaker 2: me the egg.

295
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:17,479
Speaker 5: So anyway, but he gave us some wisdom on the fosters.

296
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:19,840
Speaker 5: Then he told me this mad story.

297
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 2: Listen to this.

298
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 6: So this is when I was with my girlfriends. So

299
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:27,480
Speaker 6: we did a year of long distance. Right, you get

300
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:31,280
Speaker 6: involved with like the sending of content and everything like

301
00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:34,240
Speaker 6: that because you can't beat them people. At the same time,

302
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:39,040
Speaker 6: you want to be connected with some kind of sexual matter. Obviously, Yeah,

303
00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:41,360
Speaker 6: obviously there was a lot of back and forth in

304
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:43,560
Speaker 6: that year of long distance, as you would expect, and

305
00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:46,200
Speaker 6: then when I came to London, it was all fine,

306
00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:48,800
Speaker 6: blah blah blah blah blah. About two years after I

307
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 6: actually came down, I got a weird Skype call from

308
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:57,520
Speaker 6: the contact I didn't know. I opened it and all

309
00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:03,120
Speaker 6: of a sudden I was bombarded with all of the

310
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 6: stuff from years and years ago.

311
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:08,800
Speaker 2: Right, so you sent your girlfriend.

312
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:13,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, so I'm watching this screen filler and I'm just like,

313
00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:18,040
Speaker 6: the fuck is this? And then they started to send

314
00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 6: me screenshots of my Facebook contexts and then they were like,

315
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 6: you need to send us.

316
00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 2: How did they getherre?

317
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:25,600
Speaker 3: I don't know.

318
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:27,640
Speaker 6: To this day, I still don't know. And they were like,

319
00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:30,560
Speaker 6: you need to send us one thousand pounds right now,

320
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:34,840
Speaker 6: or we're going to send this to everyone. And I've said, well,

321
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:36,920
Speaker 6: first and foremost, guys, you're out of luck because I

322
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:40,280
Speaker 6: don't have one thousand pounds, So lower your offer and

323
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:43,120
Speaker 6: I'll see what I can do. So they kept saying, okay, well,

324
00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:45,560
Speaker 6: have you got five hundred pounds. I'm like nope. But

325
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 6: I'm like, guys, you really should have picked your target

326
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,960
Speaker 6: because I've got fuck all to my name. So I

327
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,480
Speaker 6: actually kind of said, look, Matte, you can do this.

328
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:54,000
Speaker 2: Yeah.

329
00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:54,280
Speaker 7: Yeah.

330
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 6: I had a reputation in my hometown. I used to

331
00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:58,520
Speaker 6: be known as the naked guy because I have a

332
00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:01,400
Speaker 6: get drunken nightclubs and just run through the placecas with

333
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:02,880
Speaker 6: my clothes off when I used to work there.

334
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 2: But then they didn't do anything, no.

335
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:08,440
Speaker 6: Because I all the reading that I sort of did

336
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,360
Speaker 6: was like, look, they're just hoping that you will pay them,

337
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,480
Speaker 6: because then they know they've got you because they know

338
00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:15,320
Speaker 6: you're willing to pay, and they'll say if you pay

339
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:16,240
Speaker 6: us will delete it.

340
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:18,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, but then they'll ask you again exact yeah. Yeah,

341
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:18,880
Speaker 2: So I was.

342
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 6: I was slowly shutting down all my social media's right,

343
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 6: and then the last thing I said to them and

344
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:25,480
Speaker 6: they're just like, okay, well you got five minutes. And

345
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:26,920
Speaker 6: I said, you know what, guys, I said, do your

346
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:29,920
Speaker 6: fucking the worst, like you don't scare me, and I'll

347
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:34,640
Speaker 6: blocked them and then just hid my social media is.

348
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 4: For three months.

349
00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 2: What a little legend. Oh my god, there's a.

350
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,200
Speaker 3: Lot of unpack here, Like I know, Oh my god,

351
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:43,280
Speaker 3: that's like terrifying.

352
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:47,240
Speaker 5: It's terrifying because how did they access that? It's terrifying.

353
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:50,160
Speaker 3: No, that has absolutely freaked me out now, No, I know,

354
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:50,960
Speaker 3: I know.

355
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:54,920
Speaker 5: Because honestly it is really scary and I feel like

356
00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 5: I've been quite blase in my life.

357
00:15:58,320 --> 00:15:59,000
Speaker 1: Really with.

358
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:03,440
Speaker 3: See but like you know, like it's also it's obviously

359
00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 3: legal for people to share images with their content all

360
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:07,400
Speaker 3: that kind of stuff.

361
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:10,520
Speaker 4: What if someone hacks into you and gets it all?

362
00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:14,520
Speaker 5: That's was I got robed last year, right, like walking

363
00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:16,760
Speaker 5: along the street, my phone got taken out of my

364
00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:20,880
Speaker 5: hand while it was unlocked. And my phone doesn't lock

365
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 5: because when I do gigs, I always have to have

366
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 5: my phone over to the tech for them to play

367
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 5: music off of it, so I usually just have it

368
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 5: so that it doesn't lock, so they don't need to

369
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:31,360
Speaker 5: know the password for my phone, so my phone doesn't

370
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:33,960
Speaker 5: lock like after five seconds or whatever. Anyway, this teenage

371
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:37,320
Speaker 5: boy like runs off with my phone and I for

372
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:39,400
Speaker 5: two hours, like I couldn't get home. I was like

373
00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 5: on another side of London trying to get back home,

374
00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:43,760
Speaker 5: and I didn't have a card or anything. And the

375
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:46,760
Speaker 5: whole time I was just thinking, like what if this

376
00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 5: teenage boy is like accessing all of my image? Now

377
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:52,160
Speaker 5: I'm sure he didn't because he probably just like he

378
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 5: turned the location off straight away and turned the phone

379
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 5: off straight away. But it's like so scary, but at

380
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 5: the same time, like if somebody like leaks my nudes,

381
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:02,040
Speaker 5: it would be quite on brand for me, and then

382
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:06,320
Speaker 5: I'd make it a huge political like moment, like you know, men.

383
00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:09,360
Speaker 3: Abusing women in for a penny, in for but you're

384
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:11,560
Speaker 3: like exactly uses my advantage.

385
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:14,160
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, this is the most interesting date from the story.

386
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:17,040
Speaker 3: Alone, Like, no, that is crazy that that had happened

387
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:17,560
Speaker 3: to him.

388
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 5: Honestly, I know that that's so crazy because it's like

389
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 5: someone accessed his files. But the other thing that I

390
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:25,760
Speaker 5: keep hearing about this happening on dating apps, which is

391
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,520
Speaker 5: obviously very different to this, but still fucked. And this

392
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 5: happened to my friend, right, So he spoke to the

393
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:32,720
Speaker 5: scirll in the summer. They'd been like dirty talking. He

394
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:35,720
Speaker 5: didn't even even send pictures. He just was like dirty

395
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:39,080
Speaker 5: talking with the scull. Then a few months later he

396
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:42,440
Speaker 5: got a number, like random number text him like Hey,

397
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:46,640
Speaker 5: I have all of these screenshots of you sexting like somebody,

398
00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:48,880
Speaker 5: and I found your boss and I found your parents

399
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:51,000
Speaker 5: email and I'm going to send all of the screenshots them.

400
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:51,840
Speaker 2: And my friend was.

401
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:54,119
Speaker 5: Like whoa, like good luck, Like it's literally me just

402
00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:57,119
Speaker 5: like talking about like myself Ianking, like do your worst

403
00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:57,640
Speaker 5: kind of thing.

404
00:17:58,240 --> 00:17:58,879
Speaker 2: But they were.

405
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:00,639
Speaker 5: Blackmailing him, and it happens quite a lot. And I

406
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:03,440
Speaker 5: reckon because a lot of people have affairs on these

407
00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:06,320
Speaker 5: apps that then they'll they'll get a few people who

408
00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:08,440
Speaker 5: will be so scared that will give them like ten

409
00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:09,080
Speaker 5: thousand pounds.

410
00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:11,959
Speaker 3: Well, I think there's a big lesson there. Just be careful.

411
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:12,600
Speaker 4: It is be.

412
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:14,400
Speaker 2: Careful, be really cautious.

413
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:15,159
Speaker 7: I think.

414
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 5: No, I'm I'm yeah, I'm gonna become much more careful online, grace.

00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:32,680
Speaker 3: I'm like, thank God, God Jesus.

418
00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:34,480
Speaker 2: It's so peek out in the trenches.

419
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, this is this is bad stuff. But I loved

420
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:39,960
Speaker 4: his response. I love that he was like doing it west, mate.

421
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:44,719
Speaker 5: Yeah, he was like, you really picked the wrong target here, mate,

422
00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:45,800
Speaker 5: But a grace.

423
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:48,159
Speaker 3: I also knowing you, like probably the worst part of

424
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:49,879
Speaker 3: that story for you is that you were like, he

00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:52,960
Speaker 3: doesn't have thousand dollars, he doesn't have five hundred pounds.

426
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:58,639
Speaker 3: You were probably like, oh, that's the worst part of

427
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 3: the story for you.

428
