This week I climb into Sadiq's expansion of Ulez to greater London. I ask when he's ever going to do something popular with everybody.
I also talk about being a parent and the responsibility of telling them bad stuff from history. But what if they don't think it's bad?...

0:00.0 | What most impulse? Hello and welcome think. And I am back. |
0:21.2 | I'm back from the Edinburgh Fringe. |
0:22.8 | And last night, I slept in an adult bed, a big bed with a mattress that was, well, it |
0:29.8 | was thicker than the fucking Kit Kat sized mattress I was sleeping on for two weeks up at |
0:34.7 | the fringe. |
0:35.5 | I also had a shower with, well, felt more, |
0:39.5 | had a bit more pressure than feeling like a couple of people shooting me with a, with a water |
0:43.5 | pistol. So it's good to be back and thank you so much to everybody that came to the run at the |
0:48.4 | Edinburgh Fringe. It was, I had sold out the run. I had two extra shows in bigger rooms |

1:25.1 | school early, much earlier than the English kids. |

So it does sort of eject you into the back of the ass end of summer. But I know, I'm back and I'm very much looking forward to taking this show around the country. I also saw Anton Debec, Anton Debec, who just had a show up there. I don't really, I don't know why, but it was great fun. It was like a bit of strictly on a lunchtime. He come out, he did a few jokes, you know. I think some of his jokes might have been told during live at the Coliseum season four, but it didn't matter. It's just good fun. He had some gorgeous |
