Summary
On today's episode of Fantasy Five-a-Side, Jim is joined by stand-up comedian and host of BBC Sounds podcast 'Jacob Hawley: On Drugs': it's Jacob Hawley!
A fellow Arsenal fan, Jacob joins us to talk through a five-a-side team made up of some fairly objectionable people, a few of Arsenal's more calamitous recent signings and a man who, for 6 games in 2008, was the Premier League's hottest striker. There's even a famous pop star who is solely in the squad so Jacob can try and score an invite to a future edition of Soccer Aid.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Fantasy V aside with me, Jim Campbell. Today, my guest is Jacob Hawley, a rising |
| 0:11.0 | star on the UK stand-up circuit host of the award-winning BBC Sound Show Jacob Hawley |
| 0:15.5 | on drugs and one time co-host of a certain Mike Porkey Parry. Now, welcome, Jacob. |
| 0:20.4 | Thanks, mate. How are you? I'm good, how are you? I'm good. I'm excited to learn about Mike |
| 0:23.7 | Porkey Parry, actually. What was it like to work with such a national figure? Yeah, figures |
| 0:30.2 | that were national figure, isn't he? I felt you veered towards treasure and then veered away from |
| 0:35.2 | treasure. Yeah, it's like my vocabulary stepped in. It's like, no, that's not quite what you mean. |
| 0:38.9 | That's not what he is. I mean, he's a living, breathing meme. You don't, you don't, I mean. |
| 0:47.6 | The funny thing is, no one really understands what he... Some of my friends of mine who aren't from |
| 0:52.9 | the UK, I try and explain what he is. It's very difficult. He's a man who went viral for eating raw |
| 0:59.0 | cinnamon. Yes. Previous to that, he's had quite a strange checkered raw casting career. |
| 1:04.2 | A big fallout with his former co-presenter. Former co-presenter, yeah. And also, he's been present |
| 1:10.4 | at some really strange times in history. So he was the one who reported the death of Princess Diana. |
| 1:17.1 | Really? He was the first person to put an arm around Eric Cantan after he dropped kick that |
| 1:21.6 | crystal palace fa. So he's like forest gump. Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly, exactly. |
| 1:26.4 | So just in case there is anybody that isn't aware of Mike Porcupari, a joke I was |
| 1:30.2 | explaining, he's a sort of veteran talk-spot presenter, or certainly was, and he went viral for, |
| 1:35.0 | as you say, spooning a load of cinnamon into his mouth, basically coughing it all up and saying, |
| 1:39.4 | I've passed the cinnamon challenge, even though demonstrably hadn't, that's very much the point |
| 1:43.2 | in the video. So yeah, very, very strange British cult figure, and I'm delighted to get a little |
| 1:47.1 | peek into the curtain of how he works. This is one of the fullest tablespoon falls of cinema I've |
| 1:52.2 | seen in the various challenges that I've seen recorded. Mine's going to be the best of all, and I |
