Um, and it just went off in my hand.

Oh, that doesn't offer that.

People listening to this.

Fat Boy Slim's trombone's just got off in his hand.

Oh, look who we've got.

It's Norman Cook, aka Fat Boy Slim, and we're actually in your house. We're at, well, we're slightly outside my house on the beach. I know. For those of you who can't see, it's very, very beautiful. Yeah, yeah. Thanks for coming down, by the way. Do you know what? I wouldn't miss it for the world. I've only just found out that you don't normally do home visits. No. I'm very impressed that you have. No, well, it's called Lives the Beat and we want to come down the Blooming Beach. Yeah. Thank you so much for letting me and drive because, you know, I do steal. You do steal. I noticed you've been at you and having a good nose around my house earlier on. Should I check you on the way out? So I'll pat you down on the way out. You can frisk me any time. No, but I mean, you actually say in the book, which we'll get into a minute, that you're a hoarder. I'm a hoarder, yeah. I mean, how bad do you get? Do you remember Mr. Trevis on Life of Grime? He used to shit in his own garden. Do you remember that? He used to shit in his own garden because his house was so full of rubbish. I think I'm better than that I think I'm slightly better than that I hope so no I'm a collector on the hoarder

hoarder. Horders, they just kind of keep stuff and it piles up and then you have to shit outside. Yeah. I have everything sort of regimented and I've got little boxes for all the different bits. Some of it's in alphabetical order. so it's more OCD than hoarding yeah yeah

yeah and I notice as I come and you've got all your rewards lined up well yeah very nice

but also it's like when we came to do the book it was brilliant because I had all this stuff

lying about I know it ain't over till the fat boy sings it is brilliant brilliant. You like it because there's lots of pictures. Lots of pictures. You've got tour posters in there. You've got tickets. There's some really funny photos. I love the funny photos. And like you said, it's been a roller coaster of a ride, didn't it? Yeah, yeah. Oh, sorry about that.

Is that a game changer?

Oh, no, that's great. What does a superstar DJ have as a ringtone? What do you have? Well, it was just rung, didn't it? That's my ring. It goes ring. I'm old school. I'm old school, Alan. It's quite boring, really. Don't you want, right here, right now, right here, right now.

That's what I would have. Imagine anything worse than your own song coming up when people. I think you were in a restaurant. Sorry, that's my phone. I'm fat boy slim. What's yours then? Mine's just normal. I can't really... No, I can't.

It's a really awful clip of this man going,

batty, batty, batty, batty, batty, batty, batty, batty.

And I wanted that as my ringtone, but I don't know, is it homophobic? Doesn't it drive you mad when it's like... Batty, batty, batty, batty, batty. Yeah, you're kind of asleep, Or you're just waking out and something.

Or maybe, I don't know.

I don't know. I don't judge you.

So listen.

Well, what is the weirdest thing you've sampled just out of? breaking out and science going. Or maybe, I don't know, I don't want to judge you. So listen,

well, what is the weirdest thing you've sampled just out of, just out of interest? The weirdest thing

I've sampled was a sprinkler in a beather. We got back from a night out and we were still
