| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Fringeibix. Episode number 32. |
| 0:13.0 | How are you? I am good, thank you. How are you? I'm okay. I just realised I've got no trousers on again. |
| 0:24.6 | Oh my God, is this a theme? Do you just whip them off before we start recording or is it just you gravitate towards the mic when your legs are free? What is it? |
| 0:34.1 | Well, basically, I had a pair of cord trous on a knitwear but it's not quite cold enough for that. So I was walking around and I've just had my family round for dinner. And the oven's been on and I've been cooking and I'm really hot. And I was like, I can't, I can't record the podcast like this. I'm too hot. Did you have an apron on with nothing on underneath when your family arrived. No, but here's a story that's going to come out of the family archives. |
| 0:58.1 | I don't know why I've started this. |
| 1:00.1 | But anyway, remember when The Naked Chef was, you know, really popular 20 years ago, |
| 1:05.0 | whatever Janey Oliver's house came out? |
| 1:06.7 | Yeah. |
| 1:06.9 | So my dad thought it would be hilarious to greet his friends that would come around for dinner in just an apron and nothing else. |
| 1:15.6 | Wow. And he actually had his boxes on, but, you know, from the front he looked naked. But the worst part was my friend was coming over for a sleepover at the same time. So, yeah, I mean, it was kind of, you know, painfully embarrassing, |
| 1:29.8 | but we look back now and laugh. But he wasn't fully naked. |
| 1:32.6 | That is definitely one where hindsight is a beautiful, beautiful thing. |
| 1:37.6 | So I thought, should I take my cardigan off to cool down? But what I thought was I would |
| 1:43.5 | probably get too cold during the podcast. so I opted for my trousers off instead. |
| 1:47.9 | I'm so, thank you for disclosing that. |
| 1:50.7 | And how has your week been? |
| 1:52.3 | Trousers aside. |
| 1:54.5 | It's been a, well, it's been an emotional roller coaster. |
| 1:58.5 | I think I got what is called the post-holiday blues. Because I haven't |
| 2:02.5 | been on a proper, like, warm beach holiday for so long as I keep going on. You know, I've always |
| 2:09.0 | been on a city break or stayed in the UK. And it's never really been such a contrast between |
| 2:13.7 | holiday and home. But I got home and I think Tuesday, I spoke to you after the incident. |
