Trip advisor for your vagina.

0:20.0

Oh yeah, it's like lyric worthy for a song. Yeah. I tried yesterday. Oh my God, it's an Alex Turner lyric. I'm a trip advisor for your vagina. Right? Yeah, yeah. Should we send it to him? Yeah. What's happened to your... I mean, the foamy bit on the microphone. We've lost it somewhere, but it's in the house somewhere because because he's never left the house, but yeah, the foamy bits come off. Someone's put it in a drawer. Oh, wow. But you can get the full force of my voice. Yeah, I mean, have people go nuts for your voice. Do they? Yeah. Actually, nuts. No. I didn't think so. So I was with my son yesterday here and he said he's applying to go to a music university, a song, doing a songwriting course. And he, but he had to audition with music that he's made. So he's made three songs. Actually really good. Yeah, you said it sounds great good. Yeah, well, I was like, is this like radiohead or is this you? He was like, oh, this is me. I'm like, fucking old, Joel, this is really good.

1:11.7

Anyway, he's a bit nervous about singing loudly, so the vocals are too low, you know. Yes. So I was like, come on, lad, just pump them up.

1:45.4

sofa we've got two one is a koala bear holding up the table top and the other one is a bear

1:51.6

holding up the table top anyway so i thought i'll tell you what's a good line in a song yeah a bear

1:56.7

face table it's quite good isn't it you know? I thought you could do something with that.

2:02.1

Yeah, but I mean, that's fine. But the problem is, like, nobody knows what that is except for us.

2:08.7

Yeah, but that doesn't matter. It could mean anything to anybody. Like, what I realize when I

2:12.7
