This is a global player original podcast.

Filcoming, this is The Civilian and I'm afraid we've had a bit of a technical glitch on this week's podcast.

Massive apologies because the sound isn't quite up to the normal standard.

There was a bit of a microphone issue. I think it might have something to do with turbo banana and the aura and the energy that he's been kicking out of his broken wee system after a wild summer celebrating his 40th. I don't know if he's mentioned that.

Anyway, massive apologies if the standard of the sound is not up to the usual expectations, but hopefully you can persevere and enjoy the dulcet tones of Mr Mark Compton and Gordon Smart, the clown and the wolf.

Enjoy, hope is okay and we'll be back to form soon. Veercombeing!

I've forgotten what to do.

I once went to school many, many moons ago, primary school,

and it was a guy I'll save his name.

And he'd gone so feral in his summer holidays, right,

that he'd gone up to the urinal and forgotten a civilised way to pee.

So he dropped his trousers and his pants to his ankles.

And I remember saying, what are you doing?

And he's like, oh yeah, I've just forgotten what to do.

So here I am at the urinal of podcasts, 10 jobs gogs, back with the great man.

Mr. Maltese, he's himself, Turbo Banana, who's half turbo today, he's only

a third Comston, but you know what?

He's here and I have missed you

a lot, Matt, and I'm not seeing you for ages.

I'm so good to hear you say that up.

I mean, I don't enjoy being that

side of it. I enjoyed
