| 0:00.0 | Oh, hello, Ramblers, don't mind me. I'm just about to tuck into my third slice of a lovely bit of homemade Battenberg. |
| 0:07.7 | I see you're back again for part two of our best moments from 2025. Well, you're in luck. |
| 0:13.1 | We've gone back into the archive to dig out the very best lulls we've had in the second half of 2025. |
| 0:19.5 | Sit back, tuck in to a few nuggets of Stollen, |
| 0:22.7 | and we'll continue our highlights with the legend that is the Lampton Worm. |
| 1:47.7 | They brought the big T-Fo. What about that Tifovish? Did you see it? With the... Was it a knight? Spearing a dragon? Oh, that one, yes. Yeah, yeah. Marcus. Oh, that one. Marcus? You surrey bastard. What? That was the Lampton fucking worm. Show some respect. Yeah. Of course it was. The Lampton, are you familiar with the Lampton worm story? Yeah, but tell people who don't know. Like me. And me. Right. Lampton, some little lads, right? Why did you call me a sorry, Bals? Because you don't respect our forkedels. Yeah, sorry, sorry, Marcus would be ridiculous. Go on, Pete. Tell us about the mythical worm. Little boy, he finds a salamander in the river weir. Not a worm. Go on. He's only chucked it down the well, huh? Oh, No. He to the fuck off for fighting the Crusades and comes back. This bloody salamander has taken over his entire estate, his entire manner. He's going to have to sort it out. He's going to have to slay it, isn't he? He's going to have to slate. Right. And so before he starts a slay, he talks on our witch. and this witch tells him that after he slayed the lantern worm... Did you say our witch? An owl... An owl witch. An old witch. Wait, she's our witch. An old witch. She talks an old witch and the witch says, you've got a slay the first living thing you see after you've killed the Lampton Worm or therefore |
| 2:00.9 | you know bad luck or before you um so he briefs his dad he said dad as soon as i kill this |
| 2:05.4 | fucking worm right can you release the dog that i've got and i'm going to kill my dog which is |
| 2:10.3 | which is tragic the the dad is it's all made up he kills the he kills the salamander slash worm |
| 2:15.3 | slash whatever it is right not a dragon um and a dragon. And then his dad gets so excited. He runs out and celebrates with his son. And his son goes, you idiot! You forgot to release the dog. I'll have to kill you now and he kills his dad. And the moral of the story is, don't skip church to go on fishing in the weir. Right. So why they called the black cats? |
| 2:50.0 | And why is it... I don't know. I don't know why they didn't make a black cat T for. I believe they did last season. Maybe it was in the wash. Why is this a celebrated story about a man who killed his dad? Well, I'm going to have to do it now. What? He sided with the witch. With the witch over his dad. |
| 2:50.1 | You've got |
| 2:50.4 | you |
| 2:50.6 | just have to |
| 2:51.1 | trust the |

| 2:52.0 | Having fought |
| 2:52.5 | in the |
| 2:52.7 | Crusades, |
| 2:54.3 | where is his moral comfort? Where is his faith? He's got a thirst for it, clearly. Yeah. Anyway. So it wasn't a dragon, it was the lantern worm. Sorry. Show some fucking respect. I, yeah. Yeah. I apologize to all of the worms. of, well, I would say the whole population. So there you go, Sunland. What did he tell his mum? Where's that? Well, you're not going to believe this. Killed the Mumneigh. After Sunderland beat West Ham, United, 3-0 on the weekend, we spoke about it, and we spoke about Sunland, in glowing terms, of course, on Monday's podcast. I just love that Pete getting called. Pete getting slagged off as I quote, Macum, on the YouTube comments. I wouldn't give it away. Vish and I were unaware of what the TIFO at the stadium were like actually was. Yeah. I was as well. |
| 3:41.5 | It's great to get the explanation. |
| 3:56.5 | But Pete explained to us that it is... Did we get the explanation? Not really. Well. Yeah, I still feel... I'm an explanation. Yeah. I still feel I'm unaware of what it actually is. Yeah. Pete then sort of chimed in and he called me... He disrespected the county that I'm from. |
