Oh, hi, folks. I'm Dave Holmes. You're listening to International Waters. The transatlantic panel show that pits American and British comedians against each other in a pop culture battle royale. This episode is coming 100% from Guilt Free Post in London.

Woo-hoo! We are here all week. Ben and I took those, I believe some call them Boris bikes.

Like the sort of London version of city bikes from short itch to here.

One of the major differences between London and New York is that when you are on the streets as a pedestrian or a bicyclist at all in London, you will die.

Like you will die. On the way home, we're going to die. If you hear

this, I have died. I don't know how this city was planned in such a way that people can get up

that kind of speed. What, I mean, honestly, what, how did it happen? Well, I do know how it roughly

happened. Please tell me. Yeah, I do. I think basically after it burnt down, so I mean, I'm going to just can truncate some history.

Plague, burning, plague burning.

Yeah, yeah.

Then someone went out, they had no money.

Someone went and said,

we can redo this in a straight line.

Yeah.

So guys went out with sticks and marked out London in a regularized straight way.

And people just said, no, go fuck yourself and attack them with axes. So the people went back to the old shitty shape it was and it's never changed.

Wow.

I know.

It's beautiful.

I love it.

That's right.

You're getting some goddamn history with your pop culture here on International Waters.
