What most impulse. Hello and welcome to episode Now, you might possibly detect some sort of difference

in the sound of my voice here. And that's because, as you know, I was off on holiday last week.

And I came back with a cold, with a virus, with a, well, flu, I said flu. Nasty cold,

according to my wife. And despite going to a beafer and behaving the most I've ever behaved in a beafer, I still managed to come back through UK customs, sneezing, sniffing, looking like I've done a pound of gack, basically. So you can't win. No one believes you when you're me, if you come back and you say, no, no, I've really got a cold when you you come back from Ibiza, no one believes you. And so I have done tests, obviously, to see if it's COVID and it's not COVID. And what you get these days is you get this thing where people go, whew, at least it's not COVID. I'm like, I would rather have the fucking diet Omnacron shit versus whatever this is. you know it's's almost become like a Harry Everfield type character catchphrase to go, oh, at least it's not COVID. You know, you see sitting there fucking dying of Ebola, you know, getting legs soared. Oh, at least it's not COVID. Okay, let's just accept. There are things that are equally as bad and a lot worse than COVID.

But I'm back in the hot seat here, so I'm getting, so apologies if things do sound a bit different, my end.

But luckily I've got back this week, is someone who has been in the loop very much so for the last few weeks,

is Trigonometry's own and his own Francis Foster.

I mean, you are Francis Foster, Foster outside of the context of being trigonometry,

Francis Foster.

It is true, mate.

I do exist outside of Trigonometry.

You are right.

A stand-up comedian in your own right.

You've got a tour that you're embarking on in the not too distant future, which we will get to.

But you come to us fresh from the global exposure. in the not too distant future, which we will get to.

But you come to us fresh from the global exposure of having appeared on the Joe Rowan.

Is it the Joe Rogan experience?

It is a Joe Rogan experience, yeah.

So I was on Joe Rogan two weeks ago.

We, Trigonometry, we toured the US. We went to, let me get this right, we went to New York, Washington, Austin. After Austin, we went to Nashville and after Nashville, we went

to LA. We went on the Joe Rogan experience. We also interviewed Adam Carolla, Sam Harris,

Bill Burr, amongst a whole host of other people. So these are all things that are coming up. These are all interviews that are to come out there. Bill Burr, I mean, just such a hero of mine. I mean, I always find it funny with the States is when even just saying the names of the places, we don like to admit it but it's just fucking way cooler
