What most people think. Hello. Hello and welcome to this week's main edition of what most people think. And I'm going to get straight into the guest. A returning guest is Ian Stone. Welcome back to the show, mate. Jeffrey. All right, so you already this summer, and I know this because we went to Ibiza together, but you've done Ibiza and you've done Glastonbury. How are you holding up? How's the brain cells? This is the first time I've talked in public since both of them, for be honest with it. No, I'm absolutely fine. Yeah, Ibiza was punishing. Clastonbury, it was okay. I paced myself and had a good time and came out of it relatively unscathed, I think. I like the way that you spoke about that, like a footballer doing a post-match interview.

It's like, well, obviously, you know, it's a congested schedule. We've gone into it. It's a bit punishing, but the boys are delighted with the outcomes. One of the comedians are going to get the rest they need? We're overplayed now, aren't we, really? We are overplayed and over partied. I mean, you were, you were at Glastonbury?

Were you aware of all the Bob Villain stuff or was, aren't we really. We are overplayed and over partied. I mean, you were you at Glastonbury?

Were you aware of all the Bob Villain stuff? Or was everyone at Glastonbury completely unaware of that? No, no, no. It was a big thing. It was a very political. I mean, Glastonbury's always been political. But Neckap, obviously, that's what everyone was excited about. Yeah. But then Bob Villan rather stole their thunder a little bit.

And was I bothered?

Not really. I was aware of it, but I wasn't that bothered by the whole thing. I'm not a member of the IDF myself. No. I've heard that that's possible that you can be both Jewish and not a member of the IDF. Can you confirm that for us now? Yeah, no, no, no.

It's perfectly fine.

I mean, they asked me, I said no. And, yeah, there were a lot of Palestinian flags, and there was a lot of activism at Glastonbury, but there always is and there always has been. So it was just a little bit more forthright, I guess. I was just thinking of the principle of kneecap was supposed to be the controversial ones and bomb villain was. There is a history and comedy of comics going out on tour and booking other comics as support who are way too good for the support slot. The most famous one, I think, is this one happened by a coincidence was, I think it was Paddy McGillis was in South End and the tall support dropped out and someone said, are there any local comedians who might

be pretty good? And they say, oh yeah, there's this guy called Terry Alderton. Now, some people

know Terry Alden, but in the game, one of the most barnstorming acts you're ever going to see,

went and absolutely ripped the ass out of it.

So Bob Villan sort of did a Terry order, but in terms of controversy.

Yes, quite.

I mean, the Who, they did it to the Rolling Stones as well, didn't they?

I think the Who opened for the Rolling Stones and blew them away.

So it can happen from time to time.

Listen, the field was absolutely rammed for kneecap.

They didn't suffer from it.

People still went to see them, but Bob Villan got most of the headlines.

Now, speaking politically, we are moving into, I suppose, what people would call silly season,

Parliament recess, is not maybe going to be, I mean, I've said this many weeks now,

and it's always confounded me, but there's not going to maybe be as many hard P political stories, but it does give us a chance to focus on some other stuff. There is the big water review. I was going to title this episode, Water Palava, but I just think people wouldn't realize what I was saying, what a palava, and they just think it was a really temper name. So pretty name. So I might call it, I might tell, what do you think? Should I go with that?
