Ep 24: What's It Like To WIN On A TV Quiz Show?

1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:04,850
I'm Dylan.
Hayden, I know you're the lead

2
00:00:04,860 --> 00:00:07,950
anchor and obviously this is
your podcast and correct.

3
00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:10,470
People are here to see you and
you're the coolest.

4
00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:12,310
I know.
All that good.

5
00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:16,740
But I was just wondering myself
coming up to 25 episodes and I

6
00:00:16,750 --> 00:00:19,160
was wondering if I could maybe
be the lead anchor for today.

7
00:00:24,290 --> 00:00:26,030
If not, it didn't matter.
It's like it's fine.

8
00:00:26,830 --> 00:00:28,350
It's just it was a joke.
It was.

9
00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:31,260
It was just jokes.
Yeah, just thought just thought

10
00:00:31,690 --> 00:00:34,060
just like I've just joking.
Honestly, I thought for a minute

11
00:00:34,070 --> 00:00:36,110
that you actually wanted to know
what I think we should.

12
00:00:36,150 --> 00:00:38,110
I think we should do it.
Why not?

13
00:00:38,150 --> 00:00:39,450
Yeah, I wouldn't.
Yeah.

14
00:00:39,490 --> 00:00:41,800
No, I wasn't.
You like beings, Do you actually

15
00:00:41,810 --> 00:00:44,490
think?
Let's find out, shall we say One

16
00:00:44,500 --> 00:00:45,820
way to find out.
Off you go, pal.

17
00:00:45,870 --> 00:00:46,880
OK.
Cheers, man.

18
00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:54,610
Hello, everybody, and welcome
back to another episode of

19
00:00:54,620 --> 00:00:57,010
Teach, Sleep, Repeat.
This is episode 24.

20
00:00:57,070 --> 00:00:58,910
My name is Hayden.
And my name is Dylan.

21
00:00:58,980 --> 00:01:01,530
Hey, and we've switched our
roles today.

22
00:01:01,820 --> 00:01:04,069
I'm the lead anchor, so Dylan
doesn't really know much about

23
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:06,060
this podcast.
Yes, got a couple of his own

24
00:01:06,070 --> 00:01:08,230
notes, but guess who's in
charge?

25
00:01:08,300 --> 00:01:09,490
This guy.
So if it's your favourite

26
00:01:09,500 --> 00:01:11,730
episode, make sure you let us
know.

27
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:13,750
I need to knock him down a peg
or two.

28
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:17,790
And yeah, let's get going.
So Dylan, it's your turn.

29
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:19,150
It's the start of summer
holidays.

30
00:01:19,540 --> 00:01:21,490
How's your week been?
Yeah, it's been fine.

31
00:01:21,500 --> 00:01:23,820
I mean, I love how you start.
I need to knock him down a peg

32
00:01:23,830 --> 00:01:25,670
or two.
Lovely way to start on this.

33
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:27,230
Yeah.
Yeah, absolutely.

34
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:28,640
He's so abrupt.
Didn't guys?

35
00:01:28,650 --> 00:01:30,850
If you think so, obviously.
Again, just write it right in.

36
00:01:30,860 --> 00:01:32,010
Let us know.
Dylan's real.

37
00:01:32,020 --> 00:01:33,680
He's a real mean, mean anchor,
isn't he?

38
00:01:33,690 --> 00:01:36,750
Puts me down all the time.
So today I'm rising to the top.

39
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,110
I'm taking control.
I'm already I'm already learning

40
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:42,880
so much already.
Yes, we fight as everyone knows

41
00:01:42,890 --> 00:01:46,890
it is the summer holidays and I
don't know the first week of

42
00:01:46,900 --> 00:01:48,780
some holidays.
Always had a bit of a discussion

43
00:01:48,790 --> 00:01:50,660
on threads on our new social
media platform.

44
00:01:50,670 --> 00:01:52,820
Just asked a simple question
what what's the first week of

45
00:01:52,830 --> 00:01:55,680
summer holidays like for you if
you're a if you work in a school

46
00:01:55,830 --> 00:01:58,880
And the overwhelming response
was it's just a write off and

47
00:01:58,890 --> 00:02:01,440
that's what it's like for me.
It just is a bit of a write off.

48
00:02:01,510 --> 00:02:03,840
You just again you do all your
admin stuff that you try to get

49
00:02:03,850 --> 00:02:07,160
done in like 1/2 term when you
just have one week and then you

50
00:02:07,170 --> 00:02:10,310
really hope to kind of get to
into some relaxing when you get

51
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:12,350
to week 234.
I think that's like the

52
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:14,070
Goldilocks zone.
Some other days, but still in

53
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,950
that zone of just letting the
body relax after a really

54
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:18,970
intense terms, so not too much
really.

55
00:02:19,020 --> 00:02:22,830
One other thing I was going to
say, obviously when you're an

56
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:24,720
adult you have to do a lot of
adult admin stuff.

57
00:02:24,730 --> 00:02:26,790
We talked about this loads on
the podcast, how we've grown up

58
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:28,530
and we absolutely hate that side
of being an adult.

59
00:02:28,580 --> 00:02:29,940
It's cool that we can eat
wherever we want.

60
00:02:29,950 --> 00:02:31,790
I could go to a Twix at 10:00
AM, that's nice.

61
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,780
But I have to sort out insurance
and things like that and I've

62
00:02:34,790 --> 00:02:36,860
just noticed something, and I
think it's since COVID and it

63
00:02:36,870 --> 00:02:41,110
really winds me up, is whenever
you call anyone any kind of call

64
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:44,230
centre, it's always busier than
normal.

65
00:02:44,330 --> 00:02:46,100
You find that really weird.
You ring them up and they're

66
00:02:46,110 --> 00:02:48,190
like, hello, we're just
experiencing more calls on

67
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,000
average.
At the current moment, it could

68
00:02:50,010 --> 00:02:50,950
just.
It does.

69
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,780
Averages don't work like that.
It can't always be more than the

70
00:02:53,790 --> 00:02:55,190
average.
That's not how it works.

71
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:57,340
You know they never ever ring
logo, actually, yeah, we're free

72
00:02:57,350 --> 00:02:58,610
right now.
We got three people wanna jump

73
00:02:58,620 --> 00:03:00,230
on a zoom call and I have a
whole conversation.

74
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,390
Stuff like that.
Always above average.

75
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:04,660
They've just got to set low
expectations, aren't they?

76
00:03:04,670 --> 00:03:08,090
I reckon they're psychologically
the psychology there is if you

77
00:03:08,100 --> 00:03:10,990
go in with low expectations, it
can't be any worse than what

78
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:12,690
they just held on the phone.
And if they're they're quicker,

79
00:03:12,700 --> 00:03:14,160
they're like, oh, that's
brilliant, that's good, that's

80
00:03:14,170 --> 00:03:15,480
good.
It's good news.

81
00:03:15,530 --> 00:03:18,140
Only wait 3 minutes.
When realistically, wait 3

82
00:03:18,150 --> 00:03:20,760
minutes is annoying.
I get that, but don't lie, Don't

83
00:03:20,770 --> 00:03:24,040
don't lie and say we're
experiencing Since when

84
00:03:24,050 --> 00:03:27,600
companies just lie like Ohh Yeah
hello, I'm Tesco and normally

85
00:03:27,610 --> 00:03:30,940
there's shopping would cost
£750, but today it's just £10

86
00:03:30,950 --> 00:03:31,850
for you.
That's just a lie.

87
00:03:31,860 --> 00:03:34,240
It might feel good, but you
can't just lie to me, it's

88
00:03:34,250 --> 00:03:37,240
really annoying.
I got absolutely played earlier

89
00:03:37,250 --> 00:03:39,970
today on on one of those, kind
of just like I was calling a big

90
00:03:39,980 --> 00:03:41,460
company.
I was calling DHL to try and

91
00:03:41,470 --> 00:03:43,400
track a parcel, which I'm not
gonna go into because I'll get

92
00:03:43,410 --> 00:03:45,090
angry.
But you know the situation.

93
00:03:45,180 --> 00:03:49,770
The interesting bit here is on
DHL, it gives you options, like

94
00:03:49,780 --> 00:03:51,710
press 1 if you want to do this,
press 2 if you want to track

95
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:53,470
your parcel.
I was like, no, I want to speak

96
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:54,630
to someone.
They don't want you to speak to

97
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:55,550
someone.
It obviously.

98
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:57,170
It's just they don't want you to
do that.

99
00:03:57,180 --> 00:03:59,790
It's always harder if you've
noticed that in general it's

100
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,580
hard to get the contact number
for any business now to actually

101
00:04:02,590 --> 00:04:04,840
just speak to a human being.
Anyway, that's what I wanted to

102
00:04:04,850 --> 00:04:06,310
do because it was quite a unique
case.

103
00:04:06,380 --> 00:04:10,270
And so I went to the wait for
the last option which is all.

104
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,470
Press 7 if you want to speak.
If it's something else, OK,

105
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:14,490
press 7.
And then.

106
00:04:14,500 --> 00:04:18,579
And then it went for another
list of stuff that was like the

107
00:04:18,589 --> 00:04:20,600
the other stuff, I'm like, OK,
why can't this be in the list?

108
00:04:20,610 --> 00:04:23,020
But OK And it was like, press 1
if you're something else is this

109
00:04:23,070 --> 00:04:26,140
press 2, for God's sake.
And we got to another one.

110
00:04:26,150 --> 00:04:28,640
And then it said, and press 4 if
you want to speak to an advisor.

111
00:04:28,650 --> 00:04:29,700
That cool.
There we go.

112
00:04:29,810 --> 00:04:32,520
I swear down it went to another
list.

113
00:04:32,610 --> 00:04:35,920
And on this list it Ree said
some of the things earlier.

114
00:04:35,970 --> 00:04:37,920
It's like, OK, tell me if you
want to speak to an advisor

115
00:04:37,930 --> 00:04:41,120
about tracking a package.
And I was like, oh, that's kind

116
00:04:41,130 --> 00:04:43,090
of what I want to do, I guess.
But I do need to speak to

117
00:04:43,100 --> 00:04:44,240
someone.
So I press that one.

118
00:04:44,350 --> 00:04:46,950
Circle me background, circle me
back, went to the first one of

119
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,160
like the just the automated
track your packaging.

120
00:04:49,170 --> 00:04:50,850
And I was like, Oh my God,
because I'd already rung them

121
00:04:50,860 --> 00:04:53,590
once before and tried the first
option of track your package and

122
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:55,270
realised that's not going to get
me where I want.

123
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:58,270
And I'll just spread like 10
minutes on this automated

124
00:04:58,280 --> 00:05:01,050
service, just trying to speak to
a human being about what's

125
00:05:01,060 --> 00:05:02,230
happening.
Did you ever get through to a

126
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:04,630
human being?
I did, I did.

127
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,630
And then they didn't seem to be
able to hear me, or I couldn't

128
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:08,960
hear them.
And then they just hung up after

129
00:05:08,970 --> 00:05:10,660
like 3.
Seconds like Ohh, does that

130
00:05:10,670 --> 00:05:13,170
happen to that happens to Iona.
The listeners have this happen

131
00:05:13,180 --> 00:05:16,110
to them as well where it feels
sometimes like they just do it

132
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:17,430
on purpose and I'm sure they
don't.

133
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:19,200
I'm sure there's some cool
workers out there were just as

134
00:05:19,210 --> 00:05:21,710
frustrated as we are.
But it's so you spending 15

135
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,750
minutes and then the the call
comes off for some reason and

136
00:05:24,820 --> 00:05:26,150
hello.
Sorry, can't hear you.

137
00:05:26,300 --> 00:05:28,320
Yeah.
Ohh, you can't get, you can't

138
00:05:28,330 --> 00:05:29,570
get back to them.
It's not like they've got an

139
00:05:29,580 --> 00:05:31,850
extension where you can just ohh
just redial that.

140
00:05:31,940 --> 00:05:34,210
No, you'll get to someone else
but just got cut off.

141
00:05:34,280 --> 00:05:36,240
That's fine.
We can just menu again and dial

142
00:05:36,250 --> 00:05:39,640
in 754 if you want to find out
where your mouse has gone from

143
00:05:39,650 --> 00:05:41,460
your tracking.
Yeah, Yes.

144
00:05:41,470 --> 00:05:43,140
OK, I'm not.
I'm not even gonna tell the

145
00:05:43,150 --> 00:05:46,220
story genuinely about.
The computer mouse, not There's

146
00:05:46,230 --> 00:05:49,980
no wildlife in exchange.
No, we should have left that the

147
00:05:49,990 --> 00:05:52,350
imagination.
But anyway, yeah, General,

148
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:54,300
that's been my week.
The start of the summer holidays

149
00:05:54,510 --> 00:05:57,960
are just for me.
Rest and reset and then and then

150
00:05:57,970 --> 00:05:59,160
relax.
I can't relax yet.

151
00:05:59,170 --> 00:06:00,920
I just coming off the end of the
term.

152
00:06:01,410 --> 00:06:03,690
But how about you Hayden?
How's your week pal?

153
00:06:03,730 --> 00:06:06,110
Ohh yeah, it was exactly the
same gives you in terms of that,

154
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,670
just that winding down but not
quite because I'm still getting

155
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:10,720
some work done.
But I've got a quick story from

156
00:06:10,730 --> 00:06:13,560
the end of the week.
I saw my year sixes off last

157
00:06:13,570 --> 00:06:15,510
week because obviously it's a
bit different from going to a

158
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:18,790
new school and all that.
But one thing happened that just

159
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:20,110
I want to see if this is same
for you.

160
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:21,380
I've noticed this a lot in my
career.

161
00:06:21,390 --> 00:06:23,860
I've never actually mentioned it
before but have you ever noticed

162
00:06:23,870 --> 00:06:26,620
that kids like, especially at
the end of the year might want

163
00:06:26,630 --> 00:06:28,600
to just make you something kind
of like impromptu last minute.

164
00:06:28,610 --> 00:06:30,540
They just want to make you a
little card or draw your little

165
00:06:30,550 --> 00:06:32,370
pitch or something like that or
write you a note.

166
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:34,600
And they're notoriously terrible
at hiding it.

167
00:06:34,610 --> 00:06:36,870
Like you'll be walking around
the classroom and as you're

168
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:39,540
right over them like this,
looking at that that that that

169
00:06:39,550 --> 00:06:42,170
that moment, they're like, ohh
nothing.

170
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:44,890
And I'm like and then I always
pretend that I haven't seen it.

171
00:06:44,900 --> 00:06:47,060
I don't know if you've ever been
in that situation.

172
00:06:47,070 --> 00:06:49,550
No, I've ruined it for.
That I tell them I've seen it

173
00:06:50,020 --> 00:06:54,600
rubbish.
Can you imagine?

174
00:06:54,910 --> 00:06:56,620
Ohh.
So I did that thing and and I

175
00:06:56,630 --> 00:06:59,510
saw these two girls were
writing, writing a note, just

176
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:01,310
like a little letter.
And it was really sweet.

177
00:07:01,830 --> 00:07:04,100
One girl was asking another
girl, because she has a nicer

178
00:07:04,110 --> 00:07:06,680
handwriting to help her write it
because she really wanted it to

179
00:07:06,690 --> 00:07:07,740
be presented.
Lovely.

180
00:07:07,970 --> 00:07:09,550
It was sweet.
She came and showed me the the

181
00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:12,370
letter and it was lovely.
And then I saw the other girl,

182
00:07:12,380 --> 00:07:13,700
the one that helped her write
it.

183
00:07:13,770 --> 00:07:16,820
So it wasn't actually from her.
She then had a bit of paper and

184
00:07:16,830 --> 00:07:19,220
I was thinking, oh, OK, she's
caught when she wants to do

185
00:07:19,230 --> 00:07:21,600
something now because I've just
given a nice bit of praise to

186
00:07:21,610 --> 00:07:22,910
this other kid.
Like we've had a nice.

187
00:07:23,500 --> 00:07:25,970
So I sort of, like pretended
again I didn't see him walking

188
00:07:25,980 --> 00:07:27,410
around the classroom all Yeah,
that's.

189
00:07:27,420 --> 00:07:28,710
Yeah.
Good over there.

190
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,580
Yeah, avoiding them.
And then eventually they come

191
00:07:31,590 --> 00:07:35,430
over fully anticipating a nice
little note from this girl and

192
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:39,490
she comes up to me and she just
produces me this picture.

193
00:07:40,250 --> 00:07:42,670
And again, if you're if you're
listening, we'll make sure this

194
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:44,310
is on our Instagram.
In fact, Dylan already posted

195
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,280
this but it's also on screen
right now and she just posted me

196
00:07:47,290 --> 00:07:49,720
this picture just gave me that
folded up as you can see from

197
00:07:49,730 --> 00:07:52,520
the from the prices.
I'll keep the whole the whole

198
00:07:52,530 --> 00:07:53,680
episode bit longer.
Much.

199
00:07:53,690 --> 00:07:56,980
It's much better for you.
I can probably line it up just

200
00:07:56,990 --> 00:07:57,840
over my head.
Hang on.

201
00:07:57,850 --> 00:07:59,600
Yeah, it was perfect.
There you go.

202
00:08:00,150 --> 00:08:01,380
There we go.
That's me.

203
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:05,730
Hello.
Could I just ask quickly is, is

204
00:08:05,740 --> 00:08:09,270
this, have you been any chance
for doing Frida Carlo recently

205
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,750
in class?
Well, earlier in the year we

206
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:12,480
did, yeah.
There you go.

207
00:08:12,490 --> 00:08:15,130
Funny enough.
But yeah, just gave me this.

208
00:08:15,180 --> 00:08:17,780
It looks like the love child of
Frida Carlo and Humpty Dumpty.

209
00:08:19,500 --> 00:08:21,120
It doesn't let me or the
picture.

210
00:08:22,270 --> 00:08:25,380
The love child of Frida Carlo,
Humpty Dumpty and you.

211
00:08:25,390 --> 00:08:27,480
And no one knows who the dad is.
Someone.

212
00:08:28,650 --> 00:08:31,200
So it was another case of
lowering your expectations of it

213
00:08:31,210 --> 00:08:33,059
because it was going to be a
nice note and she just threw

214
00:08:33,070 --> 00:08:36,200
this hilarious picture of me
which I've kept and it made me

215
00:08:36,210 --> 00:08:37,799
laugh quite a bit.
I know you've shared it on our

216
00:08:37,809 --> 00:08:41,169
Instagram along with some other
pictures that children have

217
00:08:41,179 --> 00:08:42,570
drawn.
My another favourite of mine

218
00:08:42,580 --> 00:08:44,470
being that the big yellow faced
man, check it out on our

219
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,560
Instagram.
So yeah, my week, it was a nice

220
00:08:47,570 --> 00:08:50,280
end of end of the end of the
school year week.

221
00:08:50,290 --> 00:08:54,460
I guess the children were
suitably upset that you always

222
00:08:54,470 --> 00:08:56,290
are, bless them, but they'll be
fine.

223
00:08:56,300 --> 00:08:58,030
It's.
It's part you know, it's part

224
00:08:58,040 --> 00:08:58,350
of.
A.

225
00:08:58,420 --> 00:08:59,850
We spoke about it.
We part of the journey.

226
00:08:59,860 --> 00:09:02,770
It's that, you know, that idea
of transition where it's our job

227
00:09:02,780 --> 00:09:05,390
to make sure that they feel
those emotions of being sad.

228
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:07,910
And you know, it's not nice to
move on from somewhere, but

229
00:09:07,980 --> 00:09:10,690
hopefully also a good dose of
excitement and anticipation

230
00:09:10,700 --> 00:09:11,580
because it will be good for
them.

231
00:09:12,300 --> 00:09:14,600
Speaking of moving on as the
lead anchor, I'm now going to

232
00:09:14,610 --> 00:09:16,820
move on to the next segment.
Do you like how I did that?

233
00:09:17,020 --> 00:09:18,430
That's good.
That was that was it was

234
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:20,070
seamless.
It was seamless.

235
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,530
Well done lived.
Lived up to your expectations.

236
00:09:24,690 --> 00:09:26,190
That's your name today.
Brilliant.

237
00:09:26,300 --> 00:09:29,230
Bottom, bottom anchor.
A bottom anchor.

238
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,040
Sorry, I'm going to come in
there because I'm the bottom,

239
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:33,510
bottom anchor to me.
Sounds like an anchor doing its

240
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:34,340
job.
Sorry.

241
00:09:34,350 --> 00:09:35,730
An anchor should be.
Where are you?

242
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:38,130
I suppose.
I suppose so, yeah.

243
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:41,030
You see what I'm talking about,
guys, This is what he does, you

244
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:42,790
know?
I've got, I've got to bring him

245
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:44,650
down a peg.
I've gotta bring him down.

246
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:49,880
So Dylan and I, last week at the
end of once the kids are All

247
00:09:49,890 --> 00:09:53,080
Gone Home, basically on the
Friday we hosted a staff quiz.

248
00:09:53,090 --> 00:09:55,330
Something we like to do.
We've been asked a few times

249
00:09:55,410 --> 00:09:58,360
just put one on just to try and
bring everyone together because

250
00:09:58,370 --> 00:10:00,520
as you know, probably from your
schools, after COVID

251
00:10:00,530 --> 00:10:03,720
particularly, it was, I don't
know, people are just a bit more

252
00:10:03,730 --> 00:10:05,370
distant, right?
It's harder to get people

253
00:10:05,380 --> 00:10:06,820
together.
It was working, you know, it's

254
00:10:06,830 --> 00:10:08,090
it's a job.
At the end of the day, people

255
00:10:08,100 --> 00:10:09,460
are working hard, they're going
home.

256
00:10:09,510 --> 00:10:12,400
And our SLT just wanted us to
come together and do something

257
00:10:12,410 --> 00:10:16,180
nice as a staff team.
So we had a barbecue and then we

258
00:10:16,190 --> 00:10:20,000
put on a quiz and I just, Dylan,
I want to go through because

259
00:10:20,010 --> 00:10:22,060
there were some funny moments in
that quiz and there was a

260
00:10:22,070 --> 00:10:25,090
particular round I've got in
mind and I'm sure you've guessed

261
00:10:25,100 --> 00:10:27,170
it already.
Dylan, not the guys at home.

262
00:10:27,180 --> 00:10:30,620
That would be weird that the
round I wanna talk about is a

263
00:10:30,630 --> 00:10:34,870
family fortunes around that we
did with our staff team.

264
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:36,590
Dylan, could you give a little
bit of context because it did

265
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:39,100
kind of come from you, or at
least someone gave you this idea

266
00:10:39,150 --> 00:10:41,320
and just explain how the round
worked?

267
00:10:41,370 --> 00:10:43,400
Yeah, sure.
So one out of two of us actually

268
00:10:43,410 --> 00:10:46,440
put some work into this podcast
and I run on social media, so.

269
00:10:47,670 --> 00:10:50,460
I I asked them some people.
I said because we've done this

270
00:10:50,470 --> 00:10:52,880
quiz thing for a few years now,
it's become a thing in our

271
00:10:52,890 --> 00:10:54,620
school.
We tend to do one or two a year,

272
00:10:54,690 --> 00:10:58,000
Christmas or end of year, so
it's become a thing and the same

273
00:10:58,010 --> 00:11:00,390
people again.
We felt like it was it was

274
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:01,490
drying up a bit didn't we hate
him?

275
00:11:01,500 --> 00:11:03,900
Like although it's cool and it's
funny, there's only so many

276
00:11:03,910 --> 00:11:06,180
times you can do the same kind
of rounds at the same people and

277
00:11:06,190 --> 00:11:07,320
we just wanted to spice it up a
bit.

278
00:11:07,330 --> 00:11:09,880
So we just asked on social
media, have you done an end of

279
00:11:09,890 --> 00:11:12,860
year quiz, you know, as a
school, as a teacher and some

280
00:11:12,870 --> 00:11:15,260
interesting quiz rounds and
there were so many cool ideas

281
00:11:15,270 --> 00:11:17,360
but one that really jumped out
was Family fortunes.

282
00:11:17,430 --> 00:11:19,310
So anyone who's not seen?
Many fortunes.

283
00:11:19,420 --> 00:11:22,170
It's a UK TV staple from the
90s.

284
00:11:22,180 --> 00:11:25,710
It's a game show where you
simply do a survey of 100 people

285
00:11:25,780 --> 00:11:28,110
and then you ask someone that
question and you need to try and

286
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:30,670
find the most said answer.
For example, it could be name

287
00:11:30,680 --> 00:11:32,770
something you have in a full
English breakfast.

288
00:11:32,860 --> 00:11:35,490
And Hayden, you might say,
sausages.

289
00:11:35,550 --> 00:11:37,670
Yeah, exactly.
And it might say, OK, 26 people

290
00:11:37,680 --> 00:11:40,380
said sausage and it's the second
answer, but the aim is always to

291
00:11:40,390 --> 00:11:42,960
get the highest answer possible.
Maybe bacon was like 38 or

292
00:11:42,970 --> 00:11:45,390
something.
And so that's Family fortunes.

293
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,990
But we actually said, OK, let's
do it, but let's do it with real

294
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:50,430
data.
So we went out during our lunch

295
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,500
times, during our break times,
and we made slips of paper with

296
00:11:53,510 --> 00:11:56,840
1012 questions on it.
And we just asked the children

297
00:11:56,850 --> 00:11:58,180
to fill it in, as simple as
that.

298
00:11:58,190 --> 00:12:01,360
And we did a round with our
staff where we would ask them

299
00:12:01,370 --> 00:12:04,430
the question.
We asked 50 children what's

300
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:06,810
something that might annoy their
teacher or something like that.

301
00:12:06,820 --> 00:12:08,800
And we and we, we got, we got
some of the answers.

302
00:12:08,810 --> 00:12:11,310
And I'm sure you can already
tell if you're a teacher or a

303
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,350
parent of young children.
Some of the answers were

304
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:15,920
hilarious, but.
Hayden, I assume you wanna go

305
00:12:15,930 --> 00:12:18,110
through some of them.
Yeah well let's let's start

306
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:19,830
there.
So one of the one of the I've

307
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:21,470
picked out a few of our
favourite questions.

308
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:22,790
OK.
I'm not, I'm not doing all 10 or

309
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,080
12 that just take forever.
So if you wanna play along at

310
00:12:25,090 --> 00:12:26,950
home and just have a bit of a
laugh, especially if you're

311
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,930
going to, you might be able to.
Obviously as my lead anchor

312
00:12:30,820 --> 00:12:34,010
mindset came in there like we
can't do it for half an hour.

313
00:12:34,610 --> 00:12:38,070
Yeah, again another tick there.
Thanks for the thanks for that

314
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:42,210
interruption.
So if you want to play along at

315
00:12:42,220 --> 00:12:44,840
home because you know, you think
you could guess the answers,

316
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:46,550
yeah, just do.
So a bit of a laugh, I'll share

317
00:12:46,560 --> 00:12:48,590
with you the top five.
So the first question I'm going

318
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:51,250
to share with you and Dylan.
Feel free to jump in if you

319
00:12:51,260 --> 00:12:52,550
remember.
Anything.

320
00:12:52,560 --> 00:12:54,190
It was, you know, it's time to
jump in.

321
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,030
I just.
Anyway, yeah, of course.

322
00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:57,050
You'll just do that.
Yeah.

323
00:12:57,100 --> 00:13:00,770
So we asked 50 children at our
school to name something that

324
00:13:00,780 --> 00:13:03,030
annoys your teacher.
So if you want to play along,

325
00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:05,710
then yeah, just have a go see if
you can get the top answer.

326
00:13:06,020 --> 00:13:08,750
So two points.
Bang you on the table.

327
00:13:09,680 --> 00:13:12,710
Three points.
Not listening this one.

328
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:14,190
Interesting.
Four points.

329
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:17,200
Four children per talk about his
bald head.

330
00:13:17,750 --> 00:13:20,210
So you can tell Ohh maybe we
were going around doing the

331
00:13:20,220 --> 00:13:24,430
survey for this. 110 points for
shouting out and in first place

332
00:13:25,230 --> 00:13:27,790
20 points talking.
Kids know that.

333
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,450
They they just know.
Talking while the teacher is

334
00:13:30,460 --> 00:13:32,500
talking or whatever.
Ohh, it's very.

335
00:13:32,510 --> 00:13:35,500
I've gotta say there was
obviously in each round the the

336
00:13:35,510 --> 00:13:39,410
ones outside the top five never
didn't make the cut and a few

337
00:13:39,420 --> 00:13:40,840
honourable mentions for that
one.

338
00:13:40,930 --> 00:13:43,200
Carrots don't have someone got
the wrong box.

339
00:13:43,270 --> 00:13:45,490
It's name something on teacher
carrot or there's a teacher out

340
00:13:45,500 --> 00:13:47,240
there needs to tell us a story
involving a carrot.

341
00:13:47,250 --> 00:13:49,540
I don't know what on earth
happened and the other one

342
00:13:49,850 --> 00:13:52,840
putting a snake in their face
again, we didn't want to raise

343
00:13:52,850 --> 00:13:54,420
it with any of our staff.
I mean, I don't know what

344
00:13:54,430 --> 00:13:57,440
happened that day, but.
Don't go around Snake in the

345
00:13:57,450 --> 00:14:00,120
face of your staff.
One that made me laugh and I

346
00:14:00,130 --> 00:14:02,280
know, I know it's innocent
because it was someone in my

347
00:14:02,290 --> 00:14:04,660
class that did it just to try
and make me laugh, just wrote on

348
00:14:04,670 --> 00:14:07,920
theirs in front of me.
Just looked to me being myself,

349
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:11,410
I was like, ohh wait, come on.
I'm not that mean.

350
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:13,070
But yeah, that made me laugh as
well.

351
00:14:13,180 --> 00:14:17,510
So next question, we asked 50
children to name the most famous

352
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,610
person in the world.
This this is a good one, because

353
00:14:20,620 --> 00:14:23,360
I always think to myself, who do
they like?

354
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:24,980
And this got a lot of answers,
didn't it?

355
00:14:24,990 --> 00:14:27,370
This got a lot of different
answers, a lot of different

356
00:14:27,380 --> 00:14:28,040
answers.
And this.

357
00:14:28,050 --> 00:14:29,970
The teachers definitely found
this one the hardest as well.

358
00:14:29,980 --> 00:14:32,950
I don't think we have many
points for this, so here we go.

359
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:35,490
You might not be surprised to
hear coming in 5th place.

360
00:14:35,500 --> 00:14:38,850
Here is Mr Beast.
Three points for that one.

361
00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:42,630
The next one was me.
As in not me, but the children

362
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:45,480
wrote me so themselves.
For three points.

363
00:14:45,490 --> 00:14:47,900
Three children with themselves.
The most famous person in the

364
00:14:47,910 --> 00:14:51,440
world.
Mr. Price Dylan.

365
00:14:51,450 --> 00:14:55,420
Six points I will say, though I
will say, though Mr Stevens as

366
00:14:55,430 --> 00:14:59,640
in me 7 points, so most popular.
That's why I'm the lead anchor

367
00:14:59,650 --> 00:15:03,300
today and in first place.
With only one more point though,

368
00:15:03,350 --> 00:15:05,810
Elon Musk.
Gone.

369
00:15:05,820 --> 00:15:08,030
Nearly as famous as him.
So I thought the kids did really

370
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:09,320
well there.
Yeah.

371
00:15:09,330 --> 00:15:12,770
Mr. Price, Mr Stevens, Elon
Musk, all one point between

372
00:15:12,780 --> 00:15:13,820
them.
Pretty.

373
00:15:13,830 --> 00:15:15,940
Well, I wanna know because
there's so many answers.

374
00:15:15,950 --> 00:15:18,280
Were there any other funny,
Funny responses?

375
00:15:18,290 --> 00:15:21,360
Oh oh were there Dylan?
My favourite response to this,

376
00:15:21,370 --> 00:15:24,760
and it genuinely cracked me up.
To name the most famous person

377
00:15:24,770 --> 00:15:28,480
in the world was a child wrote
this, the designated

378
00:15:28,490 --> 00:15:33,860
safeguarding leads.
I found that so funny because at

379
00:15:33,870 --> 00:15:36,140
our school, you know, we make it
really apparent to the children

380
00:15:36,150 --> 00:15:38,320
that it is important this I'm
not not taking it away.

381
00:15:38,330 --> 00:15:40,180
They need to know who the
safeguarding leads are in the

382
00:15:40,190 --> 00:15:41,440
school.
It's important that children

383
00:15:41,450 --> 00:15:43,260
feel safe and they know who to
speak to.

384
00:15:43,370 --> 00:15:45,790
But clearly we've been drilling
it a lot, so they know who they

385
00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:47,300
are.
We've got posters everywhere,

386
00:15:48,190 --> 00:15:50,120
most famous person in the world
them.

387
00:15:50,710 --> 00:15:53,200
I just love the idea, the kids
sitting there thinking it's

388
00:15:53,210 --> 00:15:57,000
either King Charles or the
designated safeguard.

389
00:15:57,010 --> 00:15:59,450
At least.
I just gotta go for that one.

390
00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:02,230
Well, there's 27 posters of them
around.

391
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:06,160
There's only one of King Awesome
that one, Though someone else

392
00:16:06,170 --> 00:16:08,560
did also put same thought
process there.

393
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:12,010
They put my dad, my dad,
definitely.

394
00:16:12,020 --> 00:16:14,040
So that's quite sweet.
Well, they see him the most,

395
00:16:14,050 --> 00:16:17,770
probably have everyone.
So why now, right.

396
00:16:17,780 --> 00:16:19,570
Do you wanna do the next one?
Yeah, I'd love to.

397
00:16:19,580 --> 00:16:20,810
That's because I've got this up
now.

398
00:16:20,820 --> 00:16:24,770
So we asked 50 children what is
the most common thing to go

399
00:16:24,780 --> 00:16:28,180
missing from a classroom.
OK, what is the most common

400
00:16:28,190 --> 00:16:29,910
thing to go missing from a
classroom?

401
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:33,150
And we had loads of answers to
this one in at #5.

402
00:16:34,410 --> 00:16:39,660
Mr Stevens Hair.
One child.

403
00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:43,870
It was that kid, the same one
that drew this picture.

404
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:46,530
Always goes missing.
Like sometimes you have it.

405
00:16:46,540 --> 00:16:48,890
It's like, wait, where's that?
Where's that hair gone?

406
00:16:48,940 --> 00:16:51,310
Is it under your desk?
Come on, get get his hair ready

407
00:16:51,820 --> 00:16:54,570
in at #4.
Pencils with two people.

408
00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:58,710
Not not wrong.
And #3 scissors 8.

409
00:16:59,380 --> 00:17:00,790
Again, any primary school
teacher.

410
00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:03,310
We know the pain of handing out
scissors and there's just seven

411
00:17:03,350 --> 00:17:05,099
that I've got missing somewhere
and we don't know where.

412
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:09,950
Number two was pens with 15.
How many children at the start

413
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:11,550
of a lesson?
I've you know you're 10 minutes

414
00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:12,630
in.
You're like, right kids, let's

415
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:14,920
write the date and well and like
I haven't got a pen So what have

416
00:17:14,930 --> 00:17:18,349
you been doing for 10 minutes?
So again made sense.

417
00:17:18,420 --> 00:17:19,569
Number one.
I tell you what.

418
00:17:19,579 --> 00:17:21,790
I tell you what before you #1
I'm going to interrupt you here.

419
00:17:21,839 --> 00:17:24,720
I bet this is the biggest divide
ever between teachers and non

420
00:17:24,730 --> 00:17:26,910
teachers because I reckon
teachers could be screaming at

421
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:29,120
this podcast right now knowing
what this is going to be and if

422
00:17:29,130 --> 00:17:31,000
you're not a teacher you're
probably thinking, I don't know,

423
00:17:31,010 --> 00:17:32,010
would have been one of the other
ones.

424
00:17:32,020 --> 00:17:32,930
Right.
Go on.

425
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:36,100
Yeah, exactly, That glue glue
sticks.

426
00:17:36,170 --> 00:17:40,340
Or glue lids like the kids 21
out of 50 said that straight.

427
00:17:40,350 --> 00:17:42,330
And when I was watching him
write it down, I remember

428
00:17:42,340 --> 00:17:45,400
because a few were in my class
and they went glue like looked

429
00:17:45,410 --> 00:17:47,640
to me like with like daggers
like you all, you never give us

430
00:17:47,650 --> 00:17:51,790
enough glue, glue sticks.
And you know, this really hits

431
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:54,920
home as a teacher.
Glue sticks and lids, Where do

432
00:17:54,930 --> 00:17:56,510
they go?
The lids, though, The lids man

433
00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:58,310
is the bane of my life.
I don't know about you, but I

434
00:17:58,320 --> 00:17:59,830
keep a pot.
I try to.

435
00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:01,910
There was always empty because I
constantly being taken.

436
00:18:01,980 --> 00:18:03,490
But I tried to keep a pot of
glue lids.

437
00:18:03,500 --> 00:18:05,380
So when people go, when someone
goes to throw a glue away, I'm

438
00:18:05,390 --> 00:18:07,600
like whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
whoa for the lid, give me that

439
00:18:07,610 --> 00:18:10,140
lit because someone always loses
the glue lid and you find a glue

440
00:18:10,210 --> 00:18:14,240
with no lid on it.
Anyway, last one should go for

441
00:18:14,250 --> 00:18:16,810
it.
Because this one, I really want

442
00:18:16,820 --> 00:18:19,320
you to play along at home, OK?
Because we really, did genuinely

443
00:18:19,330 --> 00:18:22,100
ask them this.
This is funny.

444
00:18:22,170 --> 00:18:25,310
So we asked 50 children our
school to name a country in

445
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:27,840
Europe other than the United
Kingdom.

446
00:18:28,510 --> 00:18:32,190
Key part, Key part other than
the United Kingdom.

447
00:18:32,690 --> 00:18:36,900
The United Kingdom, so coming in
5th place with two points.

448
00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:43,210
USA Classic European country.
This was even better.

449
00:18:43,220 --> 00:18:47,940
Fourth place, three children
decided to put Britain now can

450
00:18:47,950 --> 00:18:50,170
you other than the UK?
Can you imagine at this point,

451
00:18:50,180 --> 00:18:51,770
the face of the geography leader
in our school?

452
00:18:54,240 --> 00:19:00,760
Ohh yeah, they got fired.
So um coming in 3rd place, Italy

453
00:19:00,810 --> 00:19:02,400
strong.
Strong answer.

454
00:19:02,410 --> 00:19:04,580
Well done.
You 6 Great, yeah.

455
00:19:04,590 --> 00:19:06,480
Yeah, Yep.
Nine people per second place.

456
00:19:06,490 --> 00:19:08,320
But Spain?
Good.

457
00:19:08,360 --> 00:19:09,760
This is fine.
Up Hayden.

458
00:19:09,770 --> 00:19:12,900
I mean what came top?
OK, we rehired the geography

459
00:19:12,910 --> 00:19:16,710
lead at this point and top here
name a country in Europe other

460
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:20,100
than the United Kingdom 10
children for first place, wrote

461
00:19:20,110 --> 00:19:26,260
Scotland.
It was, you know, it's like it's

462
00:19:26,270 --> 00:19:28,880
nearly there, isn't it?
It's not, it's not remotely

463
00:19:28,890 --> 00:19:31,720
nearly there actually.
But you know, apart from that,

464
00:19:31,730 --> 00:19:34,080
you know, apart from their very
key part, apart from UK.

465
00:19:34,120 --> 00:19:37,430
I did think about this though,
after I thought just because

466
00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:40,320
it's because we live in the UK
that we kind of just ignore how

467
00:19:40,430 --> 00:19:43,760
ridiculous our country is.
Like what actually what that

468
00:19:43,770 --> 00:19:45,340
what.
Of course the children get

469
00:19:45,350 --> 00:19:48,210
confused because we live in
England, which is a country when

470
00:19:48,220 --> 00:19:50,400
they watch football and sport
and things like that.

471
00:19:50,590 --> 00:19:52,560
And then we could talk about it
like it's a country, because

472
00:19:52,570 --> 00:19:54,930
England is a country, but
actually the United Kingdom is

473
00:19:54,940 --> 00:19:56,600
the country.
And there's only one parliament.

474
00:19:56,610 --> 00:19:58,560
But actually no, there's a
parliament in Scotland who make

475
00:19:58,570 --> 00:20:00,460
rules for Scotland for some
things and in Wales for

476
00:20:00,470 --> 00:20:02,050
something like what?
What's going on?

477
00:20:02,460 --> 00:20:03,410
It's it's mad.
And say what?

478
00:20:03,420 --> 00:20:04,930
You never know as well.
If you're listening to this

479
00:20:04,940 --> 00:20:07,130
episode in the future, Scotland
might be a really good answer.

480
00:20:08,630 --> 00:20:12,250
Hey.
No Nicola Sturgeon sound like

481
00:20:12,260 --> 00:20:14,550
ohh you wait boys.
Ohh maybe not her.

482
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:15,830
Hasn't she been arrested or
something?

483
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:17,980
I don't know, but it's like a
Simpsons episode.

484
00:20:17,990 --> 00:20:21,390
We've predicted the future.
There are a couple of couple of

485
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,410
honourable mentions though.
I know you want to read these

486
00:20:23,420 --> 00:20:24,810
because I remember how much it
made you laugh.

487
00:20:24,820 --> 00:20:27,480
So go on, Dylan.
No, it's it was just really just

488
00:20:27,490 --> 00:20:28,440
really, really did make me
laugh.

489
00:20:28,450 --> 00:20:30,400
Gonna read some other questions.
So one thing we're we're a

490
00:20:30,410 --> 00:20:33,320
church school, obviously.
So one of the questions was name

491
00:20:33,330 --> 00:20:35,800
someone from the Bible other
than Jesus.

492
00:20:37,290 --> 00:20:41,360
Had two separate children must
have been taught this recently,

493
00:20:41,790 --> 00:20:43,940
they wrote.
Just think about the Just think

494
00:20:43,950 --> 00:20:44,840
for a second.
The Bible.

495
00:20:44,850 --> 00:20:47,000
Just all the people in the Bible
that you could possibly write

496
00:20:47,010 --> 00:20:54,350
down and two people wrote the
white dove Ohh first, first

497
00:20:54,360 --> 00:20:56,430
thought that came to their mind.
I respect it.

498
00:20:57,230 --> 00:21:01,640
We also had, yeah, we also had.
Remember when I said I I think

499
00:21:01,650 --> 00:21:03,940
it was, how do you know your
teacher and someone wrote down

500
00:21:03,950 --> 00:21:07,140
carrot?
Yeah, We also asked them to name

501
00:21:07,150 --> 00:21:09,680
a Halloween costume and one
person also put carrot.

502
00:21:09,770 --> 00:21:11,840
I think something's going on
with a carrot with this kid.

503
00:21:11,950 --> 00:21:13,460
Did they write carrot on all of
it?

504
00:21:13,900 --> 00:21:16,280
Any chance we look across, it's
just one for carrot and every

505
00:21:16,290 --> 00:21:19,220
single column, but there was one
that really made me laugh and I

506
00:21:19,230 --> 00:21:20,920
don't know why because it was
just so silly.

507
00:21:20,930 --> 00:21:23,200
But one of the questions was
name the word that rhymes with

508
00:21:23,210 --> 00:21:27,480
go.
Someone broke down being nice.

509
00:21:29,360 --> 00:21:32,170
The top answer, by the way, was
no, like most children put no

510
00:21:32,180 --> 00:21:33,890
right.
It was like half the kids but.

511
00:21:33,900 --> 00:21:35,890
That it was it was literally
half the children but no.

512
00:21:35,900 --> 00:21:38,730
And then and then one kids put
being nice like it's not even

513
00:21:38,740 --> 00:21:42,510
it's not even like, no, it's
it's phrase.

514
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:44,470
And it didn't even answer any of
the other questions.

515
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:45,870
So it's not like they just wrote
it.

516
00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:49,150
In they were in the wrong box.
I've got I've got one before you

517
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:50,970
come back in just because I
never mentioned it I just

518
00:21:50,980 --> 00:21:53,770
remembered it was name a country
in Europe other than the UK.

519
00:21:53,780 --> 00:21:57,540
Someone wrote N Macedonia.
It's just I was just thought it

520
00:21:57,550 --> 00:21:59,300
was so bizarre all the countries
they can.

521
00:21:59,310 --> 00:22:02,940
Afford N Macedonia.
But like unbelievably correct

522
00:22:02,950 --> 00:22:07,000
and like a really good answer.
It's like how how did you not go

523
00:22:07,010 --> 00:22:08,840
to like Spain in your head
first.

524
00:22:08,850 --> 00:22:12,180
But yeah no that was great.
And I think there's just a

525
00:22:12,190 --> 00:22:14,250
couple of other little things
like we asked them what's their

526
00:22:14,260 --> 00:22:16,120
least favourite vegetable and
someone said a pear.

527
00:22:16,210 --> 00:22:22,250
And I was just like cool, solid
start, just exposed our school

528
00:22:22,260 --> 00:22:26,680
where we.
No, no, because we we did have

529
00:22:26,690 --> 00:22:28,780
one question at the end didn't
we which was linked to that

530
00:22:28,790 --> 00:22:31,020
designated safeguarding leads
because we thought oh you know

531
00:22:31,030 --> 00:22:32,840
we're just ask them asking the
kids questions.

532
00:22:32,850 --> 00:22:35,860
We'll do like a kind of like a
joke but also a mini pupil voice

533
00:22:35,870 --> 00:22:38,020
because we have had such a push
lady to see if the children

534
00:22:38,090 --> 00:22:40,390
would be able to say and who
they know to go to for

535
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:44,720
safeguarding issues And they all
Barbara like one or two said

536
00:22:44,790 --> 00:22:46,810
exactly the right answer.
So that was really impressive.

537
00:22:46,820 --> 00:22:49,430
So, you know, really impressed.
Yeah, I was impressed.

538
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:51,350
And I thought, not only have you
provided us with some really

539
00:22:51,360 --> 00:22:53,840
good entertainment here, but
you've also actually showed us

540
00:22:53,850 --> 00:22:55,500
that you do listen to what we
say as well.

541
00:22:55,570 --> 00:22:59,130
The head teacher can go to sleep
tonight feeling OK about that.

542
00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:00,770
It's okay panic.
Listen, listen.

543
00:23:00,780 --> 00:23:03,630
The kids think that Scotland in
in UK is fine as long as they

544
00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:05,750
know that I'm doing it safely.
Yeah.

545
00:23:06,120 --> 00:23:12,680
What Priorities, baby.
Welcome back after the Jingle.

546
00:23:12,690 --> 00:23:15,840
I am your host Hayden and I'm
joined by Dylan today as well as

547
00:23:15,850 --> 00:23:18,660
the bottom anchor.
Now I just, I've got the

548
00:23:18,670 --> 00:23:20,370
attention the limelight.
Dylan and you've been knocked

549
00:23:20,380 --> 00:23:21,140
down a few pegs.
Sure.

550
00:23:21,410 --> 00:23:23,640
I just want to say to the the
viewers and listeners that

551
00:23:23,650 --> 00:23:25,130
Dylan's got a bit of a habit
right.

552
00:23:25,140 --> 00:23:27,700
We've creating quizzes and we've
just obviously talked about one

553
00:23:27,710 --> 00:23:31,560
of our rounds.
But if around not appropriate to

554
00:23:31,570 --> 00:23:35,990
him which is based solely off
whether he finds it hard or not,

555
00:23:36,050 --> 00:23:38,330
then it's it's gone.
No, it's too hard, Too hard.

556
00:23:38,340 --> 00:23:39,460
He's so confident with it.
Right.

557
00:23:39,470 --> 00:23:42,450
I'll suggest now too hard.
People can't do this because he.

558
00:23:42,490 --> 00:23:43,950
Because he can't get it right,
Right.

559
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:47,230
So we have this this picture
around that someone had sent him

560
00:23:47,430 --> 00:23:49,390
because he put a thing out on
threads and it was a really good

561
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:53,260
round and I thought it was great
and and I got maybe between

562
00:23:53,270 --> 00:23:55,110
between me and Dylan, we got
like half of them, right.

563
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:57,210
And because he didn't get them,
because he didn't get them all

564
00:23:57,220 --> 00:23:58,430
right, he was like, no, it's too
hard.

565
00:23:58,500 --> 00:24:00,560
I was thinking, yeah, that'll be
in teams of seven, you know,

566
00:24:00,570 --> 00:24:03,370
they'll be No2 cards.
We scrapped it, scrapped it

567
00:24:04,670 --> 00:24:07,110
genuinely all right.
And he replaced it with a

568
00:24:07,120 --> 00:24:10,770
homographs round really riveting
homograph if you know what

569
00:24:10,780 --> 00:24:14,090
homograph is to non teachers
because obviously every teacher

570
00:24:14,100 --> 00:24:15,790
would know, right?
Wasn't exposing anyone.

571
00:24:15,980 --> 00:24:19,290
Homographs are words that are so
spellings essentially that are

572
00:24:19,300 --> 00:24:20,730
the same but they have multiple
meanings.

573
00:24:20,770 --> 00:24:24,150
For example minute and minute
it's spelt the same.

574
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:26,220
So if you look at that word on
paper, that's a homograph

575
00:24:26,230 --> 00:24:28,030
because it can mean something to
do over time.

576
00:24:28,100 --> 00:24:32,410
It can also mean small or
produce and produce thinking

577
00:24:32,420 --> 00:24:34,430
about fruit and to create
something.

578
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:38,060
So those words are homographs.
And Dylan made this horrible

579
00:24:38,070 --> 00:24:40,800
round by the way, way harder
than the picture round.

580
00:24:40,810 --> 00:24:44,670
I got like 3 out of 10.
I couldn't could not do it.

581
00:24:44,730 --> 00:24:46,840
But more importantly, I could do
it.

582
00:24:46,850 --> 00:24:49,680
So you could do it so it stayed
in.

583
00:24:49,730 --> 00:24:51,290
Dylan could do it, so it stayed
in the quiz.

584
00:24:51,300 --> 00:24:53,680
So Dylan, I just wanted to put
you on the spot in this podcast

585
00:24:53,690 --> 00:24:56,360
cause I've written three more
and that's just find out you

586
00:24:56,370 --> 00:24:57,910
know, OK, whether you are the
homograph.

587
00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:00,440
Should we give the people just a
very quick example of what a

588
00:25:00,450 --> 00:25:02,710
question look like you just so
they can play along as well?

589
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:03,680
Sure.
So it would have been.

590
00:25:03,690 --> 00:25:06,780
So yeah, this is brand new.
So I'll give an example using

591
00:25:06,790 --> 00:25:08,560
the words I just used.
So what would happen on the bit

592
00:25:08,570 --> 00:25:13,200
of paper was you would see the
words time and small and there

593
00:25:13,210 --> 00:25:16,660
your clues to try and work out
what the homograph is and you

594
00:25:16,710 --> 00:25:18,800
would come up with the answer
minute or minute.

595
00:25:18,810 --> 00:25:21,420
Obviously written down it would
just be the same word and the

596
00:25:21,430 --> 00:25:24,860
same with fruit and create.
The answer would be produce

597
00:25:24,870 --> 00:25:26,060
produced.
Yeah, right.

598
00:25:26,070 --> 00:25:28,710
You know, the average score of
the teams was like 8, like they

599
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:31,050
did do quite well.
So, you know, yeah, all right,

600
00:25:31,060 --> 00:25:32,880
it was.
But like I said, you know that

601
00:25:32,890 --> 00:25:34,930
that was trickier to me than the
picture round.

602
00:25:35,020 --> 00:25:36,290
No, because she couldn't with
the.

603
00:25:36,420 --> 00:25:39,790
Work these out.
You can't work out a map like

604
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:41,470
you even know what it's from.
You guys again?

605
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:43,020
Look, here we go.
OK.

606
00:25:43,030 --> 00:25:44,690
Sorry, I'm not.
Sorry, Go.

607
00:25:44,700 --> 00:25:47,370
No, you know you're lucky I
don't cut that out, right?

608
00:25:47,380 --> 00:25:50,430
So on to the game.
And again, feel free to play at

609
00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:51,910
home, pause and have a go if you
want.

610
00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:55,270
So Dylan, three questions.
OK, I've got 2 words, exactly

611
00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:57,190
the same setup.
What is the homograph?

612
00:25:57,200 --> 00:26:01,330
And see if you can do it.
OK, but you can't first one rip

613
00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:03,350
and cry.
Tear.

614
00:26:03,360 --> 00:26:05,750
Tear.
Alright, that's warm up.

615
00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:06,990
I got that.
I got that from RIP.

616
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:08,190
I got that from RIP.
Come on.

617
00:26:08,860 --> 00:26:09,740
OK, alright.
Next.

618
00:26:09,750 --> 00:26:19,860
Next, one twist and injury.
Ohh ohh.

619
00:26:19,930 --> 00:26:22,940
Twist and injury.
OK, give me the next answer as

620
00:26:22,950 --> 00:26:24,580
well.
I forgot it.

621
00:26:24,590 --> 00:26:26,140
I'll sit there trying to think
what the answer was.

622
00:26:26,150 --> 00:26:30,140
We'll come back.
To that I could write it down.

623
00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:36,650
Oh my God ohh have to work out.
This is pretty funny.

624
00:26:36,660 --> 00:26:38,590
I was not going to do it.
And then you don't know it

625
00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:40,820
either.
I was really hoping you'd get

626
00:26:40,830 --> 00:26:43,070
it.
So I can be like, yeah, I can't

627
00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:44,470
remember.
You'll come back to me.

628
00:26:46,490 --> 00:26:47,370
Right.
OK, great.

629
00:26:47,380 --> 00:26:49,190
So confident with.
Me the next one.

630
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:50,800
Next.
OK, You come back to twist and

631
00:26:50,810 --> 00:26:52,760
injury.
We'll come back to you work work

632
00:26:52,770 --> 00:26:59,970
out together #3 thing Disagree.
Ohh thing.

633
00:27:00,690 --> 00:27:01,640
Yeah, Ohh.
Object.

634
00:27:01,650 --> 00:27:04,400
Object and object.
Object and object and object.

635
00:27:04,410 --> 00:27:05,860
Yeah, yeah.
So back to #2.

636
00:27:05,930 --> 00:27:08,070
OK, got between us.
Shall we?

637
00:27:08,450 --> 00:27:11,880
Twist, twist and injury.
Oh, is that?

638
00:27:13,190 --> 00:27:14,500
Injuries.
Nice sprain.

639
00:27:14,510 --> 00:27:15,880
OK, sprain doesn't work, does
it?

640
00:27:15,890 --> 00:27:17,540
No.
You can tear a muscle.

641
00:27:17,550 --> 00:27:19,270
You can rip a muscle.
Rip.

642
00:27:19,450 --> 00:27:24,060
No.
You don't know it.

643
00:27:24,070 --> 00:27:25,830
Did you really go?
I've completely forgotten.

644
00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:29,530
Completely forgotten.
Synonym for twist twist.

645
00:27:29,540 --> 00:27:31,050
The people at home are pretty
changes right now.

646
00:27:31,060 --> 00:27:34,010
So twist and injury like injury
is in like a noun, not like 2.

647
00:27:34,020 --> 00:27:36,250
Injure someone like an injury.
Yeah, as in noun.

648
00:27:36,260 --> 00:27:37,670
A noun.
Noun an injury.

649
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:39,690
Twist and injury twist, I'm
gonna remember.

650
00:27:39,700 --> 00:27:43,010
It at turn I remember it.
I remember it.

651
00:27:43,020 --> 00:27:43,870
I remember.
It all right.

652
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:45,970
That's good.
That's very grateful for that.

653
00:27:47,340 --> 00:27:48,710
Do you think then you give me a
clue?

654
00:27:48,750 --> 00:27:51,280
Give me another clue.
Ohh, I have a clue.

655
00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:54,800
Ohh, I mean we could, we could
just have the last last half

656
00:27:54,810 --> 00:27:56,690
hour of the podcast.
Be sensible, it's working out.

657
00:27:56,700 --> 00:27:58,150
Or you could give me a call,
Yeah, yeah.

658
00:27:58,360 --> 00:28:01,060
Or we could put a part.
No, don't tell you right now

659
00:28:01,070 --> 00:28:02,410
because you wouldn't be able to
cope.

660
00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:04,080
I'm just tell the answer.
Ready.

661
00:28:04,120 --> 00:28:08,070
Got wound and wound.
Oh, that's very good.

662
00:28:08,260 --> 00:28:10,890
That's very good.
That's really good.

663
00:28:11,110 --> 00:28:12,650
That's really good.
How can you get 0?

664
00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:14,450
What?
You have come out, to be honest.

665
00:28:15,140 --> 00:28:18,350
Well, I wanted to show again.
I wanted to knock you down a

666
00:28:18,360 --> 00:28:20,250
peg.
It's not working.

667
00:28:20,350 --> 00:28:22,900
I'm trying my hardest.
Not down pegs.

668
00:28:22,910 --> 00:28:26,080
I'm hammering them in.
I am climbing this ladder.

669
00:28:26,130 --> 00:28:28,100
Or pegs.
It's not working, pal.

670
00:28:28,250 --> 00:28:30,600
You're twisting them in.
Give me an injury on the way

671
00:28:31,410 --> 00:28:36,900
anyway so later on in the
podcast we have got.

672
00:28:36,910 --> 00:28:38,480
Don't have this many jingles
when I'm really down.

673
00:28:38,490 --> 00:28:40,100
Could do we didn't.
You did that thing again.

674
00:28:40,110 --> 00:28:41,320
Where?
You have this that have this

675
00:28:41,330 --> 00:28:44,400
many jingles on the lead anchor.
Well you know, I like to, I like

676
00:28:44,410 --> 00:28:46,260
to section up the content
because what you do is you

677
00:28:46,270 --> 00:28:49,000
waffle, you wiffle, waffle,
whatever, you got it.

678
00:28:49,870 --> 00:28:52,910
So later on in the podcast we
have got some fan favourites,

679
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,030
we've got our Toxic schools
section, We're going to talk

680
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:57,100
about some toxicity that's
happened and we're going out

681
00:28:57,110 --> 00:28:58,580
those schools and talk about
them.

682
00:28:58,650 --> 00:29:01,310
And also a story from the
classroom this week as well to

683
00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:03,820
hopefully make you guys laugh.
Now again, Dylan, see any of

684
00:29:03,830 --> 00:29:05,470
this because I'm the lead anchor
today.

685
00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:08,460
However, I did want to talk
about something, Dylan, and I

686
00:29:08,470 --> 00:29:11,400
know you've been a little bit
reluctant to talk about it in

687
00:29:11,410 --> 00:29:13,510
the past and maybe you can talk
about why.

688
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:16,490
Listen, don't bring up my
medical history.

689
00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:21,600
Ohh, I wasn't going to go there.
But no, this is, this is a topic

690
00:29:21,690 --> 00:29:23,810
in which you've been a bit like,
oh, I don't want to talk about

691
00:29:23,820 --> 00:29:27,100
it or not.
Dylan went what in fact has been

692
00:29:27,110 --> 00:29:30,850
on TV a few times before.
But I want to talk about the

693
00:29:30,860 --> 00:29:33,940
time that you went on the
ultimate quiz Show as we're

694
00:29:33,950 --> 00:29:36,600
talking about quiz shows, which
is Who Wants to Be a

695
00:29:36,610 --> 00:29:41,230
Millionaire, Which is a show you
have been on, what, 20/21?

696
00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:45,350
Was it 20?
20I no filmed it in 2020 because

697
00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:49,990
it was the 2nd show to come back
from filming after COVID, right?

698
00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:51,930
Joe, The first show was the
first quiz question.

699
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:56,430
I don't So second show to film
after COVID was Who Wants to Be

700
00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:59,490
a Millionaire First Show.
Another quiz show, a staple of

701
00:29:59,500 --> 00:30:01,710
British television that they
were recording the same day

702
00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:03,810
they'd recorded two days before.
I think.

703
00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:05,070
Go on then.
I have no idea.

704
00:30:05,110 --> 00:30:07,290
Wouldn't know what to.
Guess count down.

705
00:30:07,420 --> 00:30:09,350
OK, fair enough.
Yeah, that's good.

706
00:30:09,430 --> 00:30:11,840
That your reaction was really,
really not what I expected.

707
00:30:11,850 --> 00:30:12,180
Yeah.
No, I.

708
00:30:12,190 --> 00:30:14,310
Couldn't excited, I countdown.
I couldn't have had that.

709
00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:19,260
I try to, yeah.
Ohh, sorry, let me, let me, let

710
00:30:19,270 --> 00:30:21,020
me react to that one.
Do you want to do it again,

711
00:30:21,030 --> 00:30:21,830
mate?
Go on, set again.

712
00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:24,090
OK, yeah.
Do you know the other thing

713
00:30:24,100 --> 00:30:26,030
before Millionaire Was that
countdown?

714
00:30:28,980 --> 00:30:32,490
Don't get it right.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're right.

715
00:30:32,500 --> 00:30:36,040
Just like I thought you would.
OK, so anyway, I want to dive

716
00:30:36,050 --> 00:30:38,590
into it cuz it's cool.
Like you went on a really,

717
00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:40,720
really big show.
Let's get the elephant out of

718
00:30:40,730 --> 00:30:42,580
the room, because I know this is
the bit I know this is.

719
00:30:42,590 --> 00:30:44,200
The bit that you don't know
about, right.

720
00:30:44,210 --> 00:30:47,610
We know this is it, right?
The money, because you won a

721
00:30:47,620 --> 00:30:50,050
decent sum of money.
How much did you win?

722
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:54,320
Is 125 what?
And you're you're mentioning it?

723
00:30:54,330 --> 00:30:57,400
That's I can't believe you.
Don't do this to me.

724
00:30:57,470 --> 00:31:00,650
You know you you don't take your
lead anchor role like this

725
00:31:00,660 --> 00:31:03,070
because you know why?
Like, horrible anxieties around

726
00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:04,680
this content.
Let's get this out first.

727
00:31:04,690 --> 00:31:07,300
And so why have you been quite
reluctant to talk about this?

728
00:31:07,310 --> 00:31:09,900
You don't actually mention it
very often, considering how cool

729
00:31:09,910 --> 00:31:11,840
it is that you went on this show
and won loads of money.

730
00:31:11,910 --> 00:31:13,830
Come on, get out there.
Get your disclaimer in.

731
00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:16,800
There, no, I just.
I've said it's always.

732
00:31:16,810 --> 00:31:19,270
I'm just horrendously awkward.
Like you'd like to point out in

733
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:21,420
a recent podcast.
I'm telling is a bit awkward.

734
00:31:21,590 --> 00:31:27,950
So I'm a bit awkward anyway, I,
you know, I'm very vocal on on,

735
00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:31,370
on issues around, you know,
poorer people in society and

736
00:31:31,380 --> 00:31:33,610
how, you know, I think the
government's role is to help

737
00:31:33,620 --> 00:31:35,590
them and everyone's role is to
support them as much as

738
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:38,070
possible.
And I can just see what some

739
00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:40,700
people will just make these
links of hypocrisy in the fact

740
00:31:40,710 --> 00:31:43,170
that I've just got that
ridiculous amount of money for

741
00:31:43,180 --> 00:31:46,090
doing literally nothing.
And it just like highlights how

742
00:31:46,100 --> 00:31:49,940
broken our like whole system is
that I can go and sit in a chair

743
00:31:49,950 --> 00:31:53,440
for half an hour and earn.
And this is the thing when I I

744
00:31:53,450 --> 00:31:56,520
worked out that I earned more
after tax because you don't get

745
00:31:56,530 --> 00:31:58,910
taxed on winnings.
This is the another crazy thing

746
00:31:58,970 --> 00:32:00,410
you don't get.
There was tax free.

747
00:32:00,420 --> 00:32:04,150
So it's not like I got taxed on
that 125 grand. 125 grand landed

748
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:06,900
them my bank account like it was
the most crazy notification on

749
00:32:06,910 --> 00:32:08,740
my phone.
I remember I always say to

750
00:32:08,750 --> 00:32:10,780
people I was in the staff room
at school when it got

751
00:32:10,790 --> 00:32:13,940
transferred to me and I was just
flicking through like a message

752
00:32:13,950 --> 00:32:16,380
from Hayden.
You you need to update your

753
00:32:16,390 --> 00:32:20,280
Gmail account £125,000.
It was like what what What is

754
00:32:20,290 --> 00:32:22,100
this like?
It was just so crazy.

755
00:32:22,150 --> 00:32:24,650
But you don't pay tax.
And I remember one of the most

756
00:32:24,660 --> 00:32:27,150
ridiculous things that I
remember thinking to myself was

757
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:30,870
I earned more from that half an
hour in the chair than I had

758
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:33,490
done for my first, I think 6
years of teaching.

759
00:32:33,540 --> 00:32:35,470
Yeah, six whole years of
teaching.

760
00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:37,570
And we talk about how gruelling
is.

761
00:32:37,820 --> 00:32:41,070
It just shows how broken the
system is that a company can

762
00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:43,170
just say, oh, we'll make, you
know, half out, half hour of

763
00:32:43,180 --> 00:32:44,240
telly.
If this guy knows some

764
00:32:44,250 --> 00:32:46,790
questions, we'll give him six
years worth of him doing a full

765
00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:49,850
time job.
And I just, it doesn't sit right

766
00:32:49,860 --> 00:32:51,950
with me.
So I you know, jokes aside, I

767
00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:53,650
don't actually like talking
about it that much.

768
00:32:53,730 --> 00:32:57,200
You know, in again context is
fine and I hate it when someone

769
00:32:57,210 --> 00:33:00,260
asked me how much I went.
I don't know because I've seen

770
00:33:00,270 --> 00:33:01,840
it dirty.
I've obviously been in your

771
00:33:01,850 --> 00:33:04,030
company when someone said ohh,
they found out you on the show

772
00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:06,040
and how much did you win.
And I always watch you like

773
00:33:06,050 --> 00:33:09,800
recoil into your body and I get
it because and I will complement

774
00:33:09,810 --> 00:33:12,700
you once in this thing.
I guess you are generally

775
00:33:13,850 --> 00:33:15,060
horrible.
No, not joking.

776
00:33:15,110 --> 00:33:18,320
You are generally like very
aware of your surroundings.

777
00:33:18,330 --> 00:33:19,640
And I get it.
You don't want, you never want

778
00:33:19,650 --> 00:33:20,600
to come across like you're
bragging.

779
00:33:20,610 --> 00:33:22,140
You hate bragging and you hate
people that brag.

780
00:33:22,150 --> 00:33:24,910
I know that.
So for you, it's like, yeah, you

781
00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:26,250
feel like being here, but you
did.

782
00:33:26,260 --> 00:33:28,380
At the end of the day, you went
as a game show.

783
00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:31,680
You went on the game show, which
is pure chance anyway, like it

784
00:33:31,690 --> 00:33:32,730
did.
Not everyone gets on the game

785
00:33:32,740 --> 00:33:33,610
show.
We'll talk about that in a

786
00:33:33,620 --> 00:33:35,570
minute.
And you won the money and that's

787
00:33:35,580 --> 00:33:38,350
really, really cool.
So there you go, You got your

788
00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:39,740
disclaimer out there.
Now no one knows.

789
00:33:39,750 --> 00:33:42,590
You're just on here to brag, but
I want to ask you a few.

790
00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:44,410
Questions.
So you're in charge here.

791
00:33:44,420 --> 00:33:46,080
Like, you've taken us down this
road.

792
00:33:46,090 --> 00:33:47,080
So let's do it.
Let's go.

793
00:33:47,130 --> 00:33:49,250
Yeah, exactly.
I just thought was a good link.

794
00:33:49,260 --> 00:33:51,870
We're talking about our queries
and I was like this is the time

795
00:33:51,940 --> 00:33:54,960
to mention you on TV because it
is interesting and I'm sure

796
00:33:54,970 --> 00:33:57,530
there's still stuff I probably
don't know even having spoke to

797
00:33:57,540 --> 00:33:59,040
you in the past.
So I'm gonna ask you a few

798
00:33:59,050 --> 00:34:00,670
questions about it.
We'll just dive into it, give

799
00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:02,960
the viewers and listeners bit
more information so.

800
00:34:02,970 --> 00:34:05,860
First thing like, I like this.
Am I going to get like a purple?

801
00:34:06,430 --> 00:34:09,380
No, you're not the guest.
You're not the guest for this,

802
00:34:09,630 --> 00:34:11,610
this episode.
However, next week I will say

803
00:34:11,620 --> 00:34:13,900
this guy's TuneIn because we
have got an awesome guest, an

804
00:34:13,949 --> 00:34:15,900
awesome guest you're going to
love listening to.

805
00:34:15,909 --> 00:34:21,690
But back to this, how did you go
from you and nobody, Sorry

806
00:34:21,699 --> 00:34:27,070
that's going to get it on like
arguably the the biggest, like

807
00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:30,179
the most sought after quiz show
I I think I would say.

808
00:34:30,469 --> 00:34:33,300
How did that happen?
It's really it's you just got to

809
00:34:33,310 --> 00:34:35,130
know where to look.
I think that's the number one

810
00:34:35,139 --> 00:34:36,480
question I get how did you do
it?

811
00:34:36,610 --> 00:34:38,850
First thing is knowing where to
look like you literally just

812
00:34:38,860 --> 00:34:42,900
have to search on Google, you
know ITV be on TV or BBC be on

813
00:34:42,909 --> 00:34:44,219
TV.
They have their own like

814
00:34:44,270 --> 00:34:46,580
website, part of their website
where it's just a page full of

815
00:34:46,590 --> 00:34:49,530
shows and you can just click on
and literally apply and it's

816
00:34:49,540 --> 00:34:51,920
just like filling in a form.
You fill in the form they often.

817
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:55,120
Actually for a picture that
sometimes if they're really

818
00:34:55,130 --> 00:34:56,960
trying to like sift through
people, if it's a really popular

819
00:34:56,969 --> 00:34:58,650
one, they might ask for like a 2
minute video.

820
00:34:58,690 --> 00:35:01,600
Because I think a lot of people
kind of get to the point where

821
00:35:01,670 --> 00:35:03,980
I've got to fill out all this
form and a two-minute video.

822
00:35:03,990 --> 00:35:06,510
And I think the producers are
just like how can we get as many

823
00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:09,260
ways to stop hundreds of
thousands of people applying.

824
00:35:09,830 --> 00:35:11,600
So you just got to be relentless
as well.

825
00:35:11,610 --> 00:35:14,930
Like I applied for Millionaire,
I think it was my sixth time of

826
00:35:14,940 --> 00:35:17,830
applying when I actually got on
the show and each time I

827
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:20,020
applied, I got to various points
in the process.

828
00:35:20,030 --> 00:35:22,640
Because the first the first
thing is you have to fill out a

829
00:35:22,650 --> 00:35:24,230
form and it's just.
Questions like what would you

830
00:35:24,240 --> 00:35:24,760
do?
The money?

831
00:35:24,770 --> 00:35:27,050
What's your number one hobby?
Because not only have they got

832
00:35:27,060 --> 00:35:30,040
to kind of try and sound you
out, like are you decent enough

833
00:35:30,050 --> 00:35:32,520
at quizzing for it to be
interesting, they also want to

834
00:35:32,530 --> 00:35:34,510
see if you're like a personality
that could get on with the

835
00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:36,460
telly.
Because if you're not that and

836
00:35:36,470 --> 00:35:38,820
you just come on, you're really
wooden and you win loads of

837
00:35:38,830 --> 00:35:41,120
money.
It's not good TV, so it's good

838
00:35:41,130 --> 00:35:44,450
to like.
So you proved.

839
00:35:44,460 --> 00:35:48,450
That you don't wanna watch a guy
drink from his cup every two

840
00:35:48,460 --> 00:35:49,490
seconds.
I just mentioned that real

841
00:35:49,500 --> 00:35:50,420
quick.
We'll go back to the story.

842
00:35:50,430 --> 00:35:52,070
Yeah, that was a meme that
appeared from this.

843
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:54,420
Obviously all of Dylan's friends
and family and that lot and

844
00:35:54,430 --> 00:35:58,060
people we knew at the time just
emerged this amazing meme.

845
00:35:58,070 --> 00:36:00,590
Because throughout the whole
thing, and I'm presuming you are

846
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:02,710
a bit nervous about being there,
obviously.

847
00:36:02,720 --> 00:36:06,310
Ohh yeah, this is how it
manifested because I felt OK,

848
00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:08,530
but only when I watched it back
and I saw what you're about to

849
00:36:08,540 --> 00:36:10,670
say, I think.
That's how that manifested.

850
00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:13,330
My horrible loads of people
picked out the fact and you can

851
00:36:13,340 --> 00:36:14,420
watch it on ITV.
Yeah, right.

852
00:36:14,430 --> 00:36:15,280
Is that a thing?
Was it?

853
00:36:15,290 --> 00:36:16,500
Yeah it's on there still right
now.

854
00:36:16,510 --> 00:36:18,970
Yeah you can find it if you
really want to but there's just

855
00:36:18,980 --> 00:36:22,340
yeah Dylan drinks from his water
honestly like every five seconds

856
00:36:22,910 --> 00:36:26,260
clearly just the thing was Oh
yeah Oh yeah next mid sentence

857
00:36:26,270 --> 00:36:29,230
Ohh drinking from his glass of
water just and people were just

858
00:36:29,240 --> 00:36:30,680
taking the Mick because
obviously it looked a bit

859
00:36:30,690 --> 00:36:33,460
abnormal.
But anyway back to you like how

860
00:36:33,470 --> 00:36:36,340
I just want to ask that that
time period, how long was that

861
00:36:36,350 --> 00:36:38,920
if you applying you said you
applied like 6 times that over a

862
00:36:38,930 --> 00:36:39,320
few.
Years.

863
00:36:39,330 --> 00:36:41,540
So ever since, ever since the
show came back.

864
00:36:41,550 --> 00:36:44,410
So the the show has been back
since I think like 2018.

865
00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:46,990
Maybe 2019.
So they have, I think they have

866
00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:48,920
like a season every like six
months with a millionaire

867
00:36:48,930 --> 00:36:51,800
roughly.
But but yeah, like 6 honestly

868
00:36:51,810 --> 00:36:54,560
are five or six goes and you get
to varying points because then

869
00:36:54,570 --> 00:36:56,900
if you pass the first Test, you
do an online quiz as well.

870
00:36:56,910 --> 00:36:59,340
So you have to answer questions
online and it's timed.

871
00:36:59,390 --> 00:37:02,840
And then if you pass that, you
get a phone call interview where

872
00:37:02,850 --> 00:37:04,630
they'll talk to you a bit more,
flesh out a bit more.

873
00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:06,820
Actually here you're not
rehearsed answer you can just

874
00:37:06,830 --> 00:37:08,860
type out, anyone can do and then
ask.

875
00:37:08,870 --> 00:37:10,880
You do do another quiz that
you've got to get a certain

876
00:37:10,890 --> 00:37:13,700
number of marks on the phone.
Then you have to go to zoom.

877
00:37:13,750 --> 00:37:16,390
So I did a Zoom call.
Which was the 3rd hurdle, Which

878
00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:18,420
was again another chat, but this
time face to face.

879
00:37:18,430 --> 00:37:21,170
So you can see like almost like
on television, answer more

880
00:37:21,180 --> 00:37:23,420
questions.
But then at that point they're

881
00:37:23,430 --> 00:37:27,830
asking you 32,064 thousand,
125,000 questions to see like

882
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:30,210
where you roughly stand in your
general knowledge.

883
00:37:30,300 --> 00:37:33,480
Did you do well then?
So I I got to that point.

884
00:37:33,950 --> 00:37:36,100
Um.
One of my, like 4th or 5th

885
00:37:36,110 --> 00:37:39,250
application, but then did really
badly and like, I just kind of

886
00:37:39,260 --> 00:37:40,520
froze.
I didn't know the answer to a

887
00:37:40,530 --> 00:37:43,310
few questions and they said, oh,
we'll be in touch if you're

888
00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:45,220
successful and I wasn't.
I think a lot of people at that

889
00:37:45,230 --> 00:37:47,800
point might just think it's not
for me, but I was like, no, no,

890
00:37:47,870 --> 00:37:50,510
this is the number one, my #1
favourite quiz show.

891
00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:52,500
I'm just going to apply again.
And then the next time I was

892
00:37:52,510 --> 00:37:55,240
fortunate where I always
remember it because the first

893
00:37:55,250 --> 00:37:57,950
question that they asked me on
the zoom corner really settled

894
00:37:57,960 --> 00:37:59,790
my nerves.
Was just a football question

895
00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:01,600
that I'd answered in a quiz like
weeks beforehand.

896
00:38:01,610 --> 00:38:03,440
And I love football.
And they were like, which was

897
00:38:03,450 --> 00:38:05,200
the last team to win the First
Division?

898
00:38:05,270 --> 00:38:08,070
Before it became the Premier
League and I was like Leeds,

899
00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:10,130
it's Leeds.
And as soon as I knew that it,

900
00:38:10,140 --> 00:38:12,870
it just settled me down a bit.
I was more calm and I answered

901
00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:16,070
the questions better and yeah,
and at that point they ring you

902
00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:18,110
back and they say you've been
successful here, you're

903
00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:20,080
provisional dates, let's go.
And that's it.

904
00:38:20,090 --> 00:38:21,710
You've got on.
The crazy thing to me is like,

905
00:38:21,720 --> 00:38:25,170
even even at that point, it's
still not guaranteed because you

906
00:38:25,220 --> 00:38:28,250
went through those like four or
five rounds of like getting on

907
00:38:28,380 --> 00:38:29,900
and then even when you get on
the show.

908
00:38:29,910 --> 00:38:32,250
And I didn't really realise it
because I just forgot about it,

909
00:38:32,260 --> 00:38:34,130
to answer you from not watching
it as much as you.

910
00:38:34,240 --> 00:38:36,870
I forget that when you're on the
show, you still don't

911
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:38,860
necessarily get a chance in the
chair.

912
00:38:38,870 --> 00:38:40,250
Hmm.
Like how many of you are there?

913
00:38:40,260 --> 00:38:43,090
10.
So a very quickly I'll just

914
00:38:43,100 --> 00:38:44,830
preface this with a stat because
it's really cool.

915
00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:47,160
It's to do with applying.
They told me when I was there,

916
00:38:47,170 --> 00:38:50,160
the producers, that they had
40,000 applications.

917
00:38:50,820 --> 00:38:53,090
OK, just think about that
40,000.

918
00:38:53,100 --> 00:38:55,920
Like that's a lot of
applications for a quiz show

919
00:38:55,930 --> 00:38:58,210
where it's not like on telly
where they say apply.

920
00:38:58,220 --> 00:39:00,190
Now you just gotta go and try
and find it cause it's like a

921
00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:04,220
new season and 48 people got to
appear in the show.

922
00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:08,100
Of the 48 people who got to
appear on the show, she said

923
00:39:08,110 --> 00:39:11,300
they expect roughly.
So not even exactly.

924
00:39:11,310 --> 00:39:15,190
They expect roughly 2016 to 20
people to actually have a go in

925
00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:16,210
the end.
Wow.

926
00:39:16,220 --> 00:39:18,910
So the whole point is you're
there with six other people when

927
00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:21,260
you do your show, so there are
8.

928
00:39:21,330 --> 00:39:24,050
Because they cast it for six
other people are there and

929
00:39:24,060 --> 00:39:27,070
you've got to answer the fastest
finger and and only if you are

930
00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:30,090
the fastest person to order
something or answer a question

931
00:39:30,260 --> 00:39:31,900
do you then get a chance to sit
in the chair.

932
00:39:31,910 --> 00:39:35,220
And out of the six, on average,
two people per episode actually

933
00:39:35,230 --> 00:39:36,490
managed to actually play the
game.

934
00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:38,120
And you were one of them, which
was amazing.

935
00:39:38,130 --> 00:39:40,270
You were the first one, you.
Yes.

936
00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:43,540
So the first question, you know,
this is the thing we'll talk

937
00:39:43,550 --> 00:39:45,730
about preparation later.
I'm sure I'll go into as much

938
00:39:45,740 --> 00:39:47,710
detail as you want, but with
fastest finger.

939
00:39:47,720 --> 00:39:50,010
That was the one thing that I
felt like I could practise

940
00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:53,610
because it's very.
If you watch the show, it's it's

941
00:39:53,620 --> 00:39:56,640
often very similar stuff like
put these 4 words in

942
00:39:56,650 --> 00:39:59,340
alphabetical order or put these
four events in chronological

943
00:39:59,350 --> 00:40:00,600
order.
Because you're ordering stuff,

944
00:40:00,610 --> 00:40:02,240
there's only so many ways they
can say it.

945
00:40:02,450 --> 00:40:06,020
And it just so happens that from
when I was young and getting

946
00:40:06,030 --> 00:40:09,340
into quiz shows and stuff, I
just, I just loved maps of like

947
00:40:09,380 --> 00:40:11,800
absorbed so many maps.
I kind of roughly know what all

948
00:40:11,810 --> 00:40:13,340
the countries are in the world.
He still live.

949
00:40:13,410 --> 00:40:16,440
I used to learn all of the
capital cities and.

950
00:40:17,370 --> 00:40:19,820
And the question came up.
Number one was geography.

951
00:40:19,890 --> 00:40:22,240
And it was, uh, I still remember
it now.

952
00:40:22,250 --> 00:40:29,180
So it was, um, list these four
cities in order, closest, first

953
00:40:29,250 --> 00:40:31,590
from London.
So that's right.

954
00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:33,000
And there were four random
cities.

955
00:40:33,010 --> 00:40:34,850
And they all began with B,
because there's always some kind

956
00:40:34,860 --> 00:40:39,440
of link, but it's just nonsense.
And it was Baghdad, Brussels,

957
00:40:39,530 --> 00:40:43,480
Bangkok, Budapest.
So straight away I'm just

958
00:40:43,490 --> 00:40:45,710
thinking to myself because you
hear the question before the

959
00:40:45,720 --> 00:40:48,510
time starts so I didn't know the
answers but as soon as it said

960
00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:51,230
from London I was like ohh, I
literally might know this

961
00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:54,250
because if it was a question
like these 4 bones in the body,

962
00:40:54,260 --> 00:40:55,460
I'm just rubbish with that kind
of stuff.

963
00:40:55,470 --> 00:40:57,710
I just want have known if that
came up I'd kind of switched off

964
00:40:57,720 --> 00:41:00,750
and be like OK, it's gonna be
annoying I guess, but because I

965
00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:04,830
knew I might know it, I kind of
was hyper hyper aware then.

966
00:41:04,900 --> 00:41:08,490
And then when it came out, I was
like like you know that doesn't

967
00:41:08,500 --> 00:41:10,260
mean with like all the numbers
going past puts on.

968
00:41:10,270 --> 00:41:12,040
His face like this, you get.
I just felt like that.

969
00:41:12,110 --> 00:41:14,950
You get so I've seen you in the
in that like when you're hyper

970
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:17,230
focused mode like it is
impressive to be fair with win

971
00:41:17,240 --> 00:41:19,770
games and stuff because you're
ridiculously quick when you're

972
00:41:19,780 --> 00:41:22,440
in that zone.
Well this is the thing I think

973
00:41:22,450 --> 00:41:23,990
that young people have a
disadvantage.

974
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:26,510
So I noticed something with the
game show people probably it's a

975
00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:28,910
really good thing that we have
more inclusion than ever.

976
00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:31,450
If you watch Who Wants to Be a
Millionaire in the 90s, right,

977
00:41:31,740 --> 00:41:34,490
first of all they had like 16
people each show not six.

978
00:41:34,580 --> 00:41:38,130
So it's really hard to get on
But they were all 5060 year old

979
00:41:38,140 --> 00:41:40,180
white blokes who just love
quizzing because they're the

980
00:41:40,190 --> 00:41:41,940
people who like quizzing.
It's not even a bad thing, like

981
00:41:41,950 --> 00:41:44,160
they're more of them, applied
some more of them month.

982
00:41:44,250 --> 00:41:47,010
But obviously these days it's
not a bad thing.

983
00:41:47,070 --> 00:41:48,600
A lot more inclusion than you
can see.

984
00:41:48,610 --> 00:41:50,340
You could just see from the
people that were there was a

985
00:41:50,350 --> 00:41:52,090
much wider representation of
society.

986
00:41:52,130 --> 00:41:54,100
So they've made that conscious
effort to do that.

987
00:41:54,210 --> 00:41:57,220
And in every episode there are
three women and three men

988
00:41:57,290 --> 00:42:01,120
because men apply for this in in
huge numbers compared to women.

989
00:42:01,130 --> 00:42:03,510
But they made the decision,
let's just split it in half and

990
00:42:03,520 --> 00:42:05,840
that's a good thing I think just
for that kind of representation,

991
00:42:05,910 --> 00:42:07,560
get them interested and stuff
like that.

992
00:42:07,650 --> 00:42:12,170
Anyway, they have two younger
male and female, 2 middle-aged,

993
00:42:12,180 --> 00:42:14,410
male and female, and two older,
male and female.

994
00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:17,440
And if you watch the show you'll
notice that pattern and but the

995
00:42:17,450 --> 00:42:22,560
the problem with to my benefit
is young people are doing really

996
00:42:22,570 --> 00:42:24,980
well on the show now because
they have quicker reactions.

997
00:42:25,090 --> 00:42:29,140
There was a guy who also knew
the order who must have been in

998
00:42:29,150 --> 00:42:32,100
the 60s, maybe in his 70s, but
he just wasn't as quick at me as

999
00:42:32,110 --> 00:42:34,020
putting in the answer.
He might have even have known it

1000
00:42:34,030 --> 00:42:36,820
quicker than me, but just didn't
have that reaction time to press

1001
00:42:36,830 --> 00:42:39,850
the buttons properly.
Exactly.

1002
00:42:39,860 --> 00:42:41,690
And I I thought, it's not really
fair.

1003
00:42:41,740 --> 00:42:43,850
Like, really?
If you're gonna do that whole

1004
00:42:43,860 --> 00:42:47,350
age thing, if they're all 60,
then that's fair for all 20.

1005
00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:49,750
That's fair.
But I did think because the two

1006
00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:52,750
people who had a go, excuse me,
the two people who had a go

1007
00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:55,550
during my episode were me and
the young female, right?

1008
00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:57,320
Be the two we got in.
Man.

1009
00:42:57,330 --> 00:43:00,190
And like, so you know at the
point now you've just won the

1010
00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:02,030
fastest finger.
You literally know in your head.

1011
00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:04,370
Now I'm about to go.
I'm about to be on the show like

1012
00:43:04,380 --> 00:43:07,090
I'm going to be on TV,
guaranteed now for more than 20

1013
00:43:07,100 --> 00:43:09,390
seconds from that fastest finger
game.

1014
00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:12,120
And you're sat there in the
chair drinking your water every

1015
00:43:12,130 --> 00:43:15,180
five seconds.
What was going through your mind

1016
00:43:15,190 --> 00:43:17,910
at that point in terms of, like
your expectations of what what

1017
00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:21,500
you thought was going to happen?
Like, like, I can't stress this

1018
00:43:21,510 --> 00:43:25,060
enough and it's just true.
Literally nothing.

1019
00:43:25,130 --> 00:43:28,270
Like I I can't.
I finished.

1020
00:43:28,330 --> 00:43:30,160
I finished recording.
And the pod there?

1021
00:43:31,550 --> 00:43:35,460
No, I finished recording and for
about half an hour after,

1022
00:43:35,470 --> 00:43:38,110
because I was in such a weird,
like, emotional state, I

1023
00:43:38,120 --> 00:43:40,210
couldn't remember more than half
of the questions that I just

1024
00:43:40,220 --> 00:43:42,470
answered.
Like, it's such a like you just

1025
00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:45,110
like transcend yourself almost
and sit down.

1026
00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:47,570
And then Jeremy Clarkson's
opposite you, which is just

1027
00:43:47,580 --> 00:43:49,820
bizarre as well because he's
just a bloke on the telly and

1028
00:43:49,830 --> 00:43:53,090
you see him and he's like 7 foot
four and just absolutely massive

1029
00:43:53,320 --> 00:43:55,730
and it's like hello and he's
like hello Dylan.

1030
00:43:56,720 --> 00:44:00,460
And he he he was like, I didn't
know what to expect from him, to

1031
00:44:00,470 --> 00:44:02,550
be perfectly honest.
He's the kind of guy, yeah, you

1032
00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:06,040
know he'll might bash teachers
in a in a Daily Mail article but

1033
00:44:06,050 --> 00:44:08,580
say a funny joke on Top Gear and
he's like well liked or well

1034
00:44:08,590 --> 00:44:11,280
hated and he's hated very
polarising and I didn't really

1035
00:44:11,290 --> 00:44:13,560
know what to expect from him.
But he was the loveliest guy.

1036
00:44:13,620 --> 00:44:15,900
Like he was so nice.
He came and talked to us all

1037
00:44:15,910 --> 00:44:17,940
beforehand.
I felt very at ease.

1038
00:44:18,010 --> 00:44:20,140
He's got kind of a bit of our
sense of humour.

1039
00:44:20,150 --> 00:44:22,330
He didn't mind giving a bit of
banter but I don't mind taking

1040
00:44:22,340 --> 00:44:23,720
it.
So like, kind of got on in the

1041
00:44:23,730 --> 00:44:27,090
end And yeah, it's just when you
sit down, sorry to answer your

1042
00:44:27,100 --> 00:44:30,180
question is what all the only
thing that was going through my

1043
00:44:30,190 --> 00:44:32,550
head was.
Enjoy it.

1044
00:44:32,880 --> 00:44:33,840
Take your time.
Yeah.

1045
00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:36,690
Treat it like you're down the
pub at a pub quiz.

1046
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:39,270
Because I go, I go to quizzes
for fun.

1047
00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:41,710
This is the ultimate quiz.
This is the ultimate.

1048
00:44:41,720 --> 00:44:44,220
Like, I would pay money for this
experience, you know, like you

1049
00:44:44,230 --> 00:44:46,890
get like escape rooms.
And yeah, I would, I would pay

1050
00:44:46,940 --> 00:44:50,170
like £100.00 for the experience
of having Jeremy Clarkson read

1051
00:44:50,180 --> 00:44:52,350
quiz questions to me on The Who
Wants to Be a Millionaire set.

1052
00:44:52,360 --> 00:44:54,420
I was like, I'm, I'm the
luckiest guy in the world right

1053
00:44:54,430 --> 00:44:55,590
now.
I'm just going to enjoy it and

1054
00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:57,200
do what I can do.
Yeah, that's cool.

1055
00:44:57,210 --> 00:44:58,610
And I remember you saying that
beforehand as well.

1056
00:44:58,620 --> 00:44:59,970
You were just really happy to be
on the show.

1057
00:44:59,980 --> 00:45:02,030
That's all you wanted.
You weren't worried about how

1058
00:45:02,040 --> 00:45:04,240
much you want.
Then so I guess it was just a

1059
00:45:04,250 --> 00:45:06,640
huge bonus.
So when you said that you had

1060
00:45:06,650 --> 00:45:10,240
like half an hour after, weren't
you obviously were just letting

1061
00:45:10,250 --> 00:45:12,120
it all kick in, I guess let it
all sink in.

1062
00:45:12,270 --> 00:45:14,700
I imagine you probably had a
really special moment where you

1063
00:45:14,750 --> 00:45:17,500
phoned someone and let them
know.

1064
00:45:17,670 --> 00:45:20,330
Who who was that?
Who was that special person that

1065
00:45:20,340 --> 00:45:22,600
you sort of thought?
I'm going to phone them up and

1066
00:45:22,610 --> 00:45:25,400
let them know that I've just won
125 brands.

1067
00:45:25,410 --> 00:45:28,220
Is there anyone that you did
that for?

1068
00:45:29,710 --> 00:45:32,280
Did I ring you in a bit of a?
Folder.

1069
00:45:32,450 --> 00:45:35,220
Ohh, so I you did.
You did ring me as that special

1070
00:45:35,230 --> 00:45:38,150
person that you wanted to tell.
I forgotten, man.

1071
00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:40,020
I remember that.
In all seriousness, obviously

1072
00:45:40,030 --> 00:45:42,170
you did let me know.
And I remember exactly where I

1073
00:45:42,180 --> 00:45:43,550
was.
I was in the kitchen.

1074
00:45:43,600 --> 00:45:45,350
Lauren was with me.
We were just doing some everyday

1075
00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:48,120
stuff and you rang me.
My heart sank immediately.

1076
00:45:48,130 --> 00:45:49,510
Because I knew obviously you
were going to.

1077
00:45:49,520 --> 00:45:50,790
You knew what was happening.
Yeah, I knew.

1078
00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:51,790
I knew you were gonna tell me
something.

1079
00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:53,710
I hadn't spoke to you since the
morning because you've been

1080
00:45:53,720 --> 00:45:56,630
getting ready on set.
Obviously I have taken off you.

1081
00:45:56,960 --> 00:45:59,080
Yeah, you can have anything.
You have come outside, didn't

1082
00:45:59,090 --> 00:45:59,810
you?
So?

1083
00:45:59,960 --> 00:46:01,670
Had no live updates.
I just knew that you were going

1084
00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:02,900
on the show.
Didn't know if you got through

1085
00:46:02,910 --> 00:46:04,520
to the chair.
So the fact that you called me

1086
00:46:04,530 --> 00:46:06,700
and it was like, and you were
really quick and you were just

1087
00:46:06,710 --> 00:46:10,940
like, yeah, I won 125 grand.
I was like, no, you didn't.

1088
00:46:10,990 --> 00:46:12,680
No, you didn't.
I didn't believe you for like a

1089
00:46:12,690 --> 00:46:15,170
solid 30 seconds.
I was like, he's like, you're

1090
00:46:15,180 --> 00:46:18,240
kind of guy who will obviously
prank me no matter what happens.

1091
00:46:18,250 --> 00:46:19,920
I was like, he's not going to
tell the truth.

1092
00:46:19,930 --> 00:46:22,290
Firstly anyway no matter what
happens he's not going to just

1093
00:46:22,300 --> 00:46:23,770
tell me you won a million or
something.

1094
00:46:23,950 --> 00:46:27,020
Ohh man 100.
And I was so, so buzzed in that

1095
00:46:27,030 --> 00:46:29,360
moment.
Like it's ridiculously how how

1096
00:46:29,370 --> 00:46:31,710
like.
Empathetically excited.

1097
00:46:31,720 --> 00:46:34,830
You can get for someone else.
And then and then it sunk in.

1098
00:46:34,840 --> 00:46:36,050
Obviously I wouldn't win
anything.

1099
00:46:37,070 --> 00:46:39,410
I was very depressed.
No, I was just really everything

1100
00:46:39,420 --> 00:46:40,850
together.
Everything together.

1101
00:46:40,860 --> 00:46:43,400
The business or careers have
gone on the same path and then

1102
00:46:43,410 --> 00:46:44,710
suddenly I'm just like, what?
Bye.

1103
00:46:45,200 --> 00:46:47,950
Yeah.
See you later.

1104
00:46:49,330 --> 00:46:50,880
I mean the burning question
really.

1105
00:46:50,890 --> 00:46:52,850
And we'll probably circle back
around to like how you prepared

1106
00:46:52,860 --> 00:46:54,560
and stuff.
But I know people want to know

1107
00:46:54,710 --> 00:46:58,070
what did you do with the money?
Ohh, this is the other #1

1108
00:46:58,080 --> 00:47:02,180
question I get and it's just it
here's me in a nutshell.

1109
00:47:02,190 --> 00:47:04,740
My uncle summed this up.
He kind of told me why I did

1110
00:47:04,750 --> 00:47:06,980
this before I even realised,
which is why I did it.

1111
00:47:07,110 --> 00:47:12,850
And basically I have.
I've still got about 80% of that

1112
00:47:12,860 --> 00:47:16,120
money in my bank, right?
So even when interest rates were

1113
00:47:16,180 --> 00:47:18,330
nothing and you couldn't really
get anything from it, I was just

1114
00:47:18,340 --> 00:47:20,790
so obsessed with the idea of not
wasting it and not being that

1115
00:47:20,800 --> 00:47:23,660
idiot who just gets loads of
money and then ends up spending

1116
00:47:23,670 --> 00:47:25,780
30 grand on something which
you'll just forget forever.

1117
00:47:25,790 --> 00:47:31,350
And it's not being clever.
But then equally, I so many

1118
00:47:31,360 --> 00:47:34,050
people said to me when I won
that money all you should, you

1119
00:47:34,060 --> 00:47:35,940
should get a couple of bites.
You should put that down.

1120
00:47:35,950 --> 00:47:39,310
You know get a little 25%
mortgage get some flats have a

1121
00:47:39,320 --> 00:47:41,770
bit of buy to let and I couldn't
have thought of anything worse

1122
00:47:41,780 --> 00:47:44,430
to do with my life to become a
landlord and and and I know some

1123
00:47:44,440 --> 00:47:46,630
people.
No I'd seriously though because

1124
00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:49,480
it would have been a very common
way to make some money and a lot

1125
00:47:49,490 --> 00:47:52,100
smarter investment.
Do you know fair enough if

1126
00:47:52,110 --> 00:47:54,510
that's what you want to do.
But the idea that I make money

1127
00:47:54,520 --> 00:47:56,750
off someone else who can't
afford their own house because

1128
00:47:56,760 --> 00:47:59,390
they have to rent and they
charge them money to live

1129
00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:01,940
somewhere and then if I want to
sell it I can just tell them to

1130
00:48:01,950 --> 00:48:03,630
get out what's to their home
really.

1131
00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:06,370
And just because I won on a game
show which is completely

1132
00:48:06,380 --> 00:48:08,420
irrelevant like I couldn't live
with that.

1133
00:48:08,430 --> 00:48:11,140
So I I just kind of kept the
money thinking, well, one time

1134
00:48:11,150 --> 00:48:13,740
we might move, we might upgrade.
Our house is essentially what

1135
00:48:13,750 --> 00:48:16,810
we're trying to do this year,
trying to move into a home

1136
00:48:16,820 --> 00:48:21,180
that's bigger for the future.
But you know, it.

1137
00:48:21,310 --> 00:48:24,580
I kept it basically, and what I
did was I kind of chunked it

1138
00:48:24,590 --> 00:48:26,610
off.
So 125 grand.

1139
00:48:26,810 --> 00:48:28,630
I said to myself, I'm not going
to touch 100 grand.

1140
00:48:28,640 --> 00:48:30,530
I'm not going to touch it unless
it's for a really specific

1141
00:48:30,540 --> 00:48:33,690
reason.
And the other 25 grand I bought

1142
00:48:33,700 --> 00:48:36,120
a new car, which I needed
anyway, So I just got a nicer

1143
00:48:36,130 --> 00:48:37,500
car than what I was going to
get.

1144
00:48:37,550 --> 00:48:39,680
I bought brand new set of golf
clubs because I love playing

1145
00:48:39,690 --> 00:48:41,890
golf, but I only ever used hand
me downs for like 8 years.

1146
00:48:41,900 --> 00:48:44,200
I couldn't justify spending that
money on golf sets and I'm

1147
00:48:44,210 --> 00:48:46,300
really bad at spending money.
This is what something else I

1148
00:48:46,310 --> 00:48:48,620
learned as well, even when it's
free and I've won it.

1149
00:48:49,610 --> 00:48:53,150
I know.
Even when it's afraid about not.

1150
00:48:53,160 --> 00:48:56,370
I'm stingy and stuff.
I'm happy to I I I but like

1151
00:48:56,380 --> 00:48:58,930
personally, I don't want to just
spend money when I feel like I

1152
00:48:58,940 --> 00:49:02,250
could save it.
So yeah, basically not much.

1153
00:49:02,260 --> 00:49:04,550
I say to the kids, I've got an
iPad because I did go to the

1154
00:49:04,560 --> 00:49:06,270
shop and get myself an iPad
because.

1155
00:49:06,280 --> 00:49:07,720
I remember it's been very
useful.

1156
00:49:07,730 --> 00:49:09,640
But what did your uncle say?
You said your uncle was summoned

1157
00:49:09,650 --> 00:49:12,630
some that you up.
Yeah, no, he said he he

1158
00:49:12,640 --> 00:49:15,200
basically summed up because I
whenever I got asked what did

1159
00:49:15,210 --> 00:49:17,590
you do with the money, I was
like, oh, I kind of felt a bit

1160
00:49:17,600 --> 00:49:19,510
embarrassed that I just kept it
because it's not really an

1161
00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:20,970
answer, is it?
You either spend it or you

1162
00:49:20,980 --> 00:49:23,270
invest it or, you know, you
don't just leave it in the bank

1163
00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:25,740
and let it depreciate and stuff.
Yeah.

1164
00:49:26,130 --> 00:49:28,800
But his point was just like,
it's just when you look back at

1165
00:49:28,810 --> 00:49:32,920
like in terms of coming from a
family with not loads and loads

1166
00:49:32,930 --> 00:49:34,620
of money.
When I was younger, like we come

1167
00:49:34,630 --> 00:49:38,380
from up north, it was just my
mum and my sister for a while.

1168
00:49:38,490 --> 00:49:40,620
We by no means had loads of
money.

1169
00:49:40,770 --> 00:49:43,260
You know, we moved, we've moved
houses, we've rented for a bit.

1170
00:49:43,270 --> 00:49:44,970
We've lost the house.
We've got this and that from

1171
00:49:44,980 --> 00:49:48,360
youth and and the point they
made was like my uncle just said

1172
00:49:48,370 --> 00:49:52,140
something along the lines of
well that's why because you you

1173
00:49:52,150 --> 00:49:54,540
you're always thinking of the
worst case scenario and I was

1174
00:49:54,550 --> 00:49:57,390
like yeah I do, I I actually
always do think of the worst

1175
00:49:57,400 --> 00:50:00,330
case scenario.
So he was saying there's no

1176
00:50:00,340 --> 00:50:03,470
situation whilst you've got 100
grand in the bank's there's no

1177
00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:08,010
situation that will rinse you.
That will get you in a position

1178
00:50:08,020 --> 00:50:10,790
where your life is horrendous
because for example if the

1179
00:50:10,800 --> 00:50:13,130
boiler explodes I can
immediately fix it.

1180
00:50:13,140 --> 00:50:14,330
I've got all that money in the
bank.

1181
00:50:14,380 --> 00:50:16,370
If the car breaks down I can
immediately fix it.

1182
00:50:16,380 --> 00:50:19,590
I'm I'm, I'm just not letting
myself ever get to the point

1183
00:50:19,640 --> 00:50:22,090
where even if an emergency
happened and I could solve it,

1184
00:50:22,160 --> 00:50:24,710
I'm at 0 again.
The point is you've got such a

1185
00:50:24,720 --> 00:50:26,850
buffer because you don't want
that to happen.

1186
00:50:27,040 --> 00:50:29,710
And I was like, God, yeah, that
is definitely the meta inside my

1187
00:50:29,720 --> 00:50:32,630
head, which is cool.
I've now all I've got.

1188
00:50:32,640 --> 00:50:34,940
All that money got me was
security.

1189
00:50:34,950 --> 00:50:37,290
It didn't get me things because
I've not bought things with it.

1190
00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:40,140
It just bought me complete
security of all of those things

1191
00:50:40,150 --> 00:50:41,470
potentially happening in the
future.

1192
00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:43,640
Yeah, it makes sense.
It's a mindset you've grown up

1193
00:50:43,650 --> 00:50:46,610
with, understandably, like most
people do in the country anyway.

1194
00:50:46,620 --> 00:50:49,430
And I can see it.
You can see, you can see if you

1195
00:50:49,440 --> 00:50:51,590
had a different upbringing like
say like a really really.

1196
00:50:51,780 --> 00:50:54,300
Really privileged upbringing
where money was just nothing.

1197
00:50:54,310 --> 00:50:56,150
You know, on those kind of
families, we just buy whatever

1198
00:50:56,160 --> 00:50:57,440
you want whenever you want,
doesn't matter.

1199
00:50:57,450 --> 00:50:59,700
Then I could understand that you
might just be like, yeah, I'm

1200
00:50:59,710 --> 00:51:01,960
gonna smash it.
I bought a 60 grand like Land

1201
00:51:01,970 --> 00:51:04,360
Rover and it's like, I'll be
like, OK, all right.

1202
00:51:05,550 --> 00:51:08,420
Another question.
You obviously a teacher then

1203
00:51:08,430 --> 00:51:11,020
still are.
How did your class react?

1204
00:51:11,030 --> 00:51:13,960
Because obviously you were
teacher one day and then you on

1205
00:51:13,970 --> 00:51:15,440
TV and doing who wants to be
there.

1206
00:51:15,830 --> 00:51:18,480
They they how how you think they
would.

1207
00:51:18,490 --> 00:51:20,560
They absolutely loved it.
Like it was one of the best

1208
00:51:20,570 --> 00:51:23,870
things that I've done to just
immediately be seen on the

1209
00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:26,070
pedestal by the children and
respected like it.

1210
00:51:26,080 --> 00:51:28,870
It kind of, it sounds
ridiculous, but it helped me

1211
00:51:28,880 --> 00:51:31,660
kind of build those bonds
really, really quickly with my

1212
00:51:31,670 --> 00:51:33,870
new kids.
Like later on, because we filmed

1213
00:51:33,880 --> 00:51:37,650
it, we filmed it in the summer.
It came out in like January,

1214
00:51:37,660 --> 00:51:39,210
right?
But it was like, it came out

1215
00:51:39,220 --> 00:51:41,640
when the second lockdown of
COVID happened because we were

1216
00:51:41,650 --> 00:51:44,330
going, I was going to arrange
like a watch party, OK.

1217
00:51:44,370 --> 00:51:46,260
So I was going to arrange this
thing where we get friends

1218
00:51:46,270 --> 00:51:49,600
around and we just watch it
together and we just like turn

1219
00:51:49,610 --> 00:51:51,560
it into a reason to get
together.

1220
00:51:51,570 --> 00:51:54,090
Basically when we when COVID was
rife, the COVID lockdown

1221
00:51:54,100 --> 00:51:56,840
actually came in so we couldn't
get together of anyone.

1222
00:51:56,850 --> 00:51:58,660
While we were watching it.
I just was sat on my phone

1223
00:51:58,670 --> 00:52:02,290
getting messages and stuff,
which was really cool, but it

1224
00:52:02,300 --> 00:52:04,370
also meant that I didn't have my
class in school.

1225
00:52:04,520 --> 00:52:07,430
So at that point we had bubbles
of key worker children.

1226
00:52:07,720 --> 00:52:09,970
So it's still cool though
because I still showed them

1227
00:52:09,980 --> 00:52:12,530
because it was on ITV Player the
next day.

1228
00:52:12,540 --> 00:52:16,330
So we went online, we watched
that and it was before lunch and

1229
00:52:16,340 --> 00:52:19,530
they were just hooked.
But I also had like office staff

1230
00:52:19,540 --> 00:52:21,790
going into the classroom and
Tias and stuff coming in to

1231
00:52:21,800 --> 00:52:23,590
watch it because everyone was
just so buzzed.

1232
00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:26,790
And it was a really nice pick me
up at that time for a lot of

1233
00:52:26,800 --> 00:52:29,610
people in school because it was
so depressing.

1234
00:52:29,660 --> 00:52:32,510
Like, it's really easy to forget
how depressing it was socially

1235
00:52:32,580 --> 00:52:34,200
at that point.
I know people kind of cracked on

1236
00:52:34,210 --> 00:52:35,810
with work.
We were in that really horrible

1237
00:52:35,820 --> 00:52:39,000
point of COVID where everyone
was just expected to crack on

1238
00:52:39,010 --> 00:52:42,480
with the work, but no one had
any social interactions with

1239
00:52:42,490 --> 00:52:45,460
people at any point.
And it like, really ground

1240
00:52:45,470 --> 00:52:47,330
people down.
But me personally, obviously it

1241
00:52:47,340 --> 00:52:49,240
was a really real bonus being
able to have this.

1242
00:52:49,250 --> 00:52:52,020
But for other people, I felt the
joy, they were just happy to be

1243
00:52:52,030 --> 00:52:54,300
like, ohh, this thing happened.
Isn't that really cool?

1244
00:52:54,530 --> 00:52:56,220
Someone asked the kids.
They love it.

1245
00:52:56,230 --> 00:52:57,780
Yeah, exactly.
And.

1246
00:52:57,790 --> 00:53:00,440
I did the same thing.
I had you on my Google

1247
00:53:00,450 --> 00:53:02,860
background for ages on at school
because I knew the kids.

1248
00:53:02,870 --> 00:53:05,040
It made the kids.
Have that's surprised like he

1249
00:53:05,050 --> 00:53:06,320
was on that.
Some of the kids still didn't

1250
00:53:06,330 --> 00:53:08,840
know like a couple of years
later like yeah, he was on who

1251
00:53:08,850 --> 00:53:10,460
wants to be in there.
You should ask him about it and

1252
00:53:10,470 --> 00:53:13,120
like that's so cool.
So yeah, definitely no.

1253
00:53:13,130 --> 00:53:15,420
And I still get it now.
I still get it now, especially

1254
00:53:15,430 --> 00:53:18,540
where I've taught siblings and
stuff because like from their

1255
00:53:18,550 --> 00:53:20,110
point of view, I'm the teacher
who's famous.

1256
00:53:20,120 --> 00:53:21,960
They just think I'm famous
because as soon as you're on TV,

1257
00:53:21,970 --> 00:53:23,590
you're famous.
As soon as you're on a YouTube

1258
00:53:23,600 --> 00:53:24,990
video.
I'd say this to any teacher, by

1259
00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:27,860
the way, listening if you want a
really quick win with your

1260
00:53:27,870 --> 00:53:31,200
class, if you're doing a lesson
next year where anything, you

1261
00:53:31,210 --> 00:53:33,680
could turn into a video.
We did this like 5-6 years ago,

1262
00:53:33,690 --> 00:53:36,260
but it wasn't issue.
We just recorded ourselves as a

1263
00:53:36,270 --> 00:53:38,880
prompt for a lesson.
If they see that you're on

1264
00:53:38,890 --> 00:53:41,340
YouTube or if they see that
you've, you know you've made a

1265
00:53:41,350 --> 00:53:43,900
video content immediately
elevated.

1266
00:53:43,910 --> 00:53:46,980
Oh my God, that's cool.
My teachers made a YouTube video

1267
00:53:47,050 --> 00:53:49,040
like that.
It's just such an easy win and

1268
00:53:49,050 --> 00:53:50,420
like being on national
television.

1269
00:53:50,570 --> 00:53:52,900
I got cards and stuff from the
kids that year.

1270
00:53:53,350 --> 00:53:56,440
I've got one card off Moon Pig
and they screenshot.

1271
00:53:56,490 --> 00:53:59,300
They've taken a picture of their
child, sat in front of the TV on

1272
00:53:59,310 --> 00:54:02,320
the floor, and they're looking
up like that of me on the

1273
00:54:02,330 --> 00:54:03,760
screen.
But their child there who was in

1274
00:54:03,770 --> 00:54:06,140
my class and I was like still
got that card I remember.

1275
00:54:06,150 --> 00:54:07,900
That's so nice.
I actually remember that picture

1276
00:54:07,910 --> 00:54:09,040
as well.
Yeah, I do.

1277
00:54:09,530 --> 00:54:12,190
That's so sweet.
So I've got one more question

1278
00:54:12,200 --> 00:54:13,680
for you guys.
We talk about this forever, I'm

1279
00:54:13,690 --> 00:54:18,160
sure, but I remember the context
of this question is all the

1280
00:54:18,170 --> 00:54:21,860
children at school constantly
asking you for stuff after you

1281
00:54:21,870 --> 00:54:23,860
remember when they were all
like, Oh my God, can you buy me

1282
00:54:23,870 --> 00:54:25,140
a PlayStation?
You can get me Xbox?

1283
00:54:25,150 --> 00:54:26,700
Can I have £1000?
Can I have this?

1284
00:54:26,910 --> 00:54:28,640
And obviously they're just
messing around.

1285
00:54:28,650 --> 00:54:31,220
The kids are just messing around
and it was funny and you know,

1286
00:54:31,230 --> 00:54:34,340
you always have with them.
It was really nice, but did you

1287
00:54:34,350 --> 00:54:37,190
get any of?
Like those kind of messages or

1288
00:54:37,200 --> 00:54:39,900
weird messages from actual
people, you know how you expect

1289
00:54:39,940 --> 00:54:42,290
when people go and win money.
Like people that win the lottery

1290
00:54:42,300 --> 00:54:45,020
often have to be, like
safeguarded against scammers and

1291
00:54:45,030 --> 00:54:46,470
people that just try to get to
know them.

1292
00:54:46,480 --> 00:54:47,650
Suddenly they're your best
friends.

1293
00:54:47,660 --> 00:54:51,250
Did you have any of that well
linked to that really quickly

1294
00:54:51,300 --> 00:54:57,820
other than I I TV actually said
to go on the show you have to

1295
00:54:57,830 --> 00:54:59,940
sign up to two meetings with a
psychologist.

1296
00:55:00,430 --> 00:55:03,250
So they were like kind of
safeguarding people.

1297
00:55:03,260 --> 00:55:04,850
And initially you had to say it
because.

1298
00:55:04,890 --> 00:55:06,900
And the whole thing about before
I went on it was with a

1299
00:55:06,910 --> 00:55:10,720
psychologist saying Jeremy can
be quite his band to other

1300
00:55:10,730 --> 00:55:12,840
people might find it offensive
and it's going to go on national

1301
00:55:12,850 --> 00:55:15,360
television and people will try
and message you and people will

1302
00:55:15,370 --> 00:55:17,640
react and it might be negative,
it might be positive.

1303
00:55:17,690 --> 00:55:20,920
And then once I'd won, they also
wanted me to do another one,

1304
00:55:20,990 --> 00:55:23,160
just for the reasons you just
said, you know, you've won a

1305
00:55:23,170 --> 00:55:25,520
substantial amount of money.
This might happen, this might

1306
00:55:25,530 --> 00:55:28,120
happen just to see if you're
mentally OK, basically because

1307
00:55:28,130 --> 00:55:31,120
they don't want to be seen to
not have anything in place and

1308
00:55:31,130 --> 00:55:34,840
then you go off the rails.
So, but yeah, I did get, I got a

1309
00:55:34,850 --> 00:55:37,390
lot of Facebook messengers
because obviously at the start

1310
00:55:37,400 --> 00:55:40,200
of Millionaire, you do a little
wave wave at the camera like

1311
00:55:40,210 --> 00:55:43,000
that and it says not only like
your full name but where you're

1312
00:55:43,010 --> 00:55:44,260
from.
And when I think about it more

1313
00:55:44,270 --> 00:55:46,560
and more, I'm like, that's not
really necessary, is it?

1314
00:55:46,790 --> 00:55:50,000
Like, you're my full name.
I'm wearing from so immediately

1315
00:55:50,010 --> 00:55:53,340
on Facebook my message request
inbox was like just like full of

1316
00:55:53,350 --> 00:55:58,050
stuff and yeah, it it like
nothing completely

1317
00:55:58,060 --> 00:56:01,610
inappropriate.
But a lot of older people kind

1318
00:56:01,620 --> 00:56:05,290
of like, you know and the vibe
was a bit seedy let me just say

1319
00:56:05,300 --> 00:56:08,890
like sometimes and a lot of just
genuine comments from people

1320
00:56:08,900 --> 00:56:11,430
saying well done, well done.
But you know to to go and find a

1321
00:56:11,440 --> 00:56:14,230
stranger, like there were people
from like you know Stratford and

1322
00:56:14,240 --> 00:56:16,070
like Edinburgh and it just a bit
odd.

1323
00:56:16,080 --> 00:56:17,290
I didn't, I didn't really like
it.

1324
00:56:17,300 --> 00:56:18,790
I didn't interact with any of
them.

1325
00:56:19,420 --> 00:56:21,960
That probably chancing their
arm, thinking ohh from Nice to

1326
00:56:21,970 --> 00:56:24,280
him he might like be my friend
and then maybe yeah, I don't

1327
00:56:24,290 --> 00:56:25,560
know.
Give me some money or something.

1328
00:56:25,570 --> 00:56:26,770
I don't know.
It's just strange all they're

1329
00:56:26,780 --> 00:56:28,920
just being genuinely nice like
Rand and it's just that's their

1330
00:56:28,930 --> 00:56:31,100
way of saying something.
I don't know.

1331
00:56:31,330 --> 00:56:35,220
I did have one like unbelievably
nice moment and I'll always

1332
00:56:35,230 --> 00:56:39,140
regret it because I never got
round to replying to this person

1333
00:56:39,330 --> 00:56:42,360
and I still now get that because
you know you're in school.

1334
00:56:42,370 --> 00:56:43,740
I saw something like, that's
amazing.

1335
00:56:43,750 --> 00:56:45,860
I'm going to make sure I replied
to this properly.

1336
00:56:46,310 --> 00:56:48,480
But I just never got around to
doing it and I still regret it

1337
00:56:48,490 --> 00:56:50,410
now.
And I still might make sure I do

1338
00:56:50,420 --> 00:56:53,860
this at some point.
But I got a letter and a card

1339
00:56:54,170 --> 00:56:56,220
right, which was delivered to
school.

1340
00:56:56,710 --> 00:57:00,320
So one of the children in my
class at the time, her great

1341
00:57:00,330 --> 00:57:03,880
grandmother lives in Wales and
you got to remember peak of

1342
00:57:03,890 --> 00:57:05,730
COVID.
This woman must have been

1343
00:57:05,740 --> 00:57:08,460
completely isolated.
OK, completely isolated.

1344
00:57:08,730 --> 00:57:11,450
Just watching telly, you know,
ringing her daughter who lives

1345
00:57:11,460 --> 00:57:13,280
in Kent with their grandson and
stuff.

1346
00:57:13,290 --> 00:57:16,100
Her granddaughter who I teach
and she just got me a

1347
00:57:16,110 --> 00:57:18,640
congratulations card.
This woman, she must she was she

1348
00:57:18,650 --> 00:57:22,730
was I think she was in her 90s
handwritten from Wales saying

1349
00:57:22,740 --> 00:57:26,160
dear Mr. Price, you know the
most lovely letter like wild

1350
00:57:26,170 --> 00:57:29,730
congratulations on this.
It was so refreshing to see a

1351
00:57:29,740 --> 00:57:32,090
teacher.
She was being really nice to me

1352
00:57:32,100 --> 00:57:36,410
like carry himself so well.
My my great granddaughter loves

1353
00:57:36,420 --> 00:57:38,680
being taught by you.
She's so lucky to have and just

1354
00:57:38,690 --> 00:57:42,010
like full like a full side this
lovely comment.

1355
00:57:42,100 --> 00:57:44,890
And I just remember at the time,
because it was Pete COVID and I

1356
00:57:44,900 --> 00:57:47,710
just just like I couldn't
express enough how grateful I

1357
00:57:47,720 --> 00:57:50,710
was that she wrote it.
But also how like awful.

1358
00:57:50,720 --> 00:57:54,620
I felt that that was her social
thing because she even said in

1359
00:57:54,630 --> 00:57:57,600
there, because of COVID, she
doesn't have as much social

1360
00:57:57,610 --> 00:57:59,110
stuff now.
She can't go meet up with her

1361
00:57:59,120 --> 00:58:00,640
other people and do her clubs
and stuff.

1362
00:58:00,650 --> 00:58:03,910
So she felt like she had
something watching TV and seeing

1363
00:58:03,920 --> 00:58:06,820
me on the show and and I
remember thinking I need to

1364
00:58:06,830 --> 00:58:09,480
apply and I didn't.
And I still right now think I

1365
00:58:09,490 --> 00:58:11,260
know.
And I right now just think ohh

1366
00:58:11,270 --> 00:58:15,070
just I hope and I pray that she
doesn't think that I was just

1367
00:58:15,080 --> 00:58:17,040
being ignorant or something,
because I really, really

1368
00:58:17,050 --> 00:58:19,510
appreciated that.
Another reason that you're not

1369
00:58:19,520 --> 00:58:21,920
the lead anchor today.
You know, it was a nice story

1370
00:58:21,930 --> 00:58:23,840
and we ended it on a really sad
note.

1371
00:58:23,850 --> 00:58:25,850
I'm joking.
I'm I'm sure, I'm sure she

1372
00:58:25,860 --> 00:58:28,140
didn't expect any anything in
return.

1373
00:58:28,150 --> 00:58:30,940
She probably just wanted to,
like, share her genuine

1374
00:58:31,350 --> 00:58:34,340
gratitude for you going on and
being a being the teacher of her

1375
00:58:34,350 --> 00:58:37,500
grandkid and that.
Yeah, I've got one other story

1376
00:58:37,950 --> 00:58:40,440
because it's just quite funny
because do you know, you said

1377
00:58:40,450 --> 00:58:45,250
about how I rang you and I told
you, Yeah, I I didn't tell any

1378
00:58:45,260 --> 00:58:47,220
of my family that I was even
going on the show.

1379
00:58:47,650 --> 00:58:48,830
Right?
So I didn't tell.

1380
00:58:48,840 --> 00:58:50,200
I didn't even know I was going
on the show.

1381
00:58:50,250 --> 00:58:52,800
I drove to Manchester on my own
because, again, COVID rules.

1382
00:58:52,810 --> 00:58:55,640
I drove to Manchester on my own,
stayed in the hotel room on my

1383
00:58:55,650 --> 00:59:00,200
own, did the whole thing.
Anyway, I told my sisters

1384
00:59:00,710 --> 00:59:02,690
beforehand, I thought, how am I
going to do so?

1385
00:59:02,700 --> 00:59:04,130
I'd already been on the show and
won the money.

1386
00:59:04,170 --> 00:59:06,840
So I got back to my hotel room
and I made a WhatsApp group with

1387
00:59:06,850 --> 00:59:09,830
my sisters.
OK, so I made it and I told them

1388
00:59:09,840 --> 00:59:12,500
I wanted to, I wanted to
surprise my parents on a call.

1389
00:59:12,690 --> 00:59:15,610
And I said to my sisters,
listen, I've just been on Who

1390
00:59:15,620 --> 00:59:17,500
Wants to Be a Millionaire?
And they're like, what?

1391
00:59:17,510 --> 00:59:20,900
Like initial shock already.
And I was like, yeah, yeah, how

1392
00:59:20,910 --> 00:59:24,040
much winning there?
I won £16,000 and they were

1393
00:59:24,050 --> 00:59:27,940
like, what, 1616 grand?
Like, I can't believe it.

1394
00:59:27,950 --> 00:59:30,560
That's amazing because my whole
thing was, I was going to tell

1395
00:59:30,570 --> 00:59:33,520
them have the shock and they're
like, wow, you won 16 round.

1396
00:59:33,530 --> 00:59:35,970
Then we watch it together and I
go past 16 grand and they're

1397
00:59:35,980 --> 00:59:37,730
like, what's going on?
And like every kind of steps.

1398
00:59:37,740 --> 00:59:40,820
Like, yeah, so I I managed.
I said to him, I'm gonna ring.

1399
00:59:40,830 --> 00:59:42,730
I'm gonna ring.
Now you all need to answer at

1400
00:59:42,740 --> 00:59:44,750
the same time.
We'll do a group WhatsApp video

1401
00:59:44,760 --> 00:59:46,280
call.
Did it.

1402
00:59:46,820 --> 00:59:48,990
Parents came on the call.
I was like, alright guys.

1403
00:59:49,040 --> 00:59:51,530
And I was telling them they had
to pretend to be shocked

1404
00:59:51,540 --> 00:59:54,570
obviously.
So yeah, just just wanted to

1405
00:59:54,580 --> 00:59:56,200
show you something.
And I just showed him a piece of

1406
00:59:56,210 --> 00:59:59,930
paper that said congratulations
on being on women in there.

1407
00:59:59,940 --> 01:00:01,630
You have won.
And I'd folded it where it said

1408
01:00:01,640 --> 01:00:02,770
how much.
Yeah.

1409
01:00:02,780 --> 01:00:05,350
And my parents said what what
Dylan?

1410
01:00:05,440 --> 01:00:07,830
And I'm like, no, no, seriously.
And I showed in the hotel room

1411
01:00:07,900 --> 01:00:09,650
and I showed them.
You could see Old Trafford out

1412
01:00:09,660 --> 01:00:11,970
of my window, the Manchester
United training ground, Man

1413
01:00:11,980 --> 01:00:14,370
United football pitch.
So they're like Dillard.

1414
01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:15,650
What?
What?

1415
01:00:15,720 --> 01:00:19,170
And I was like, yeah, yeah,
yeah, I want 16 grand and my

1416
01:00:19,180 --> 01:00:20,280
mum's there.
I was like crying.

1417
01:00:20,290 --> 01:00:22,330
She's like Dylan, you want 60
grand.

1418
01:00:22,380 --> 01:00:25,270
But I'm there like buzzing with
excitement, like I was like,

1419
01:00:25,280 --> 01:00:27,810
yeah, not really.
Not really though.

1420
01:00:27,820 --> 01:00:32,460
I want 125 grand.
I just couldn't.

1421
01:00:32,500 --> 01:00:34,590
I couldn't even keep it for that
long ago, get that much longer.

1422
01:00:34,600 --> 01:00:36,440
I was like I was gonna just hold
elaborate thing.

1423
01:00:36,610 --> 01:00:38,660
It turns out it was locked down
anyway, so we couldn't watch it

1424
01:00:38,670 --> 01:00:40,270
together.
But I had to wait seven months

1425
01:00:40,280 --> 01:00:42,600
for the money.
I was about to say it was a long

1426
01:00:42,610 --> 01:00:44,150
time anyway, Wasn't.
There's no way you would wait

1427
01:00:44,160 --> 01:00:45,400
that long and not be able to
tell them.

1428
01:00:45,410 --> 01:00:47,990
So I'm sure.
How did they react when you said

1429
01:00:48,000 --> 01:00:50,240
the bigger amount?
They were just like it was

1430
01:00:50,250 --> 01:00:52,660
really funny because they've
reacted to 16 grand, which is

1431
01:00:52,670 --> 01:00:55,470
obviously a lot of money.
Like in a way where I thought,

1432
01:00:55,480 --> 01:00:56,860
well there's there's nothing
extra they've got.

1433
01:00:56,870 --> 01:00:59,060
So I might as well just tell
them and they just carried on

1434
01:00:59,070 --> 01:01:02,090
there like a dog and I just got
it's just the rest of the night

1435
01:01:02,100 --> 01:01:04,140
going I I don't believe it.
I still don't believe it.

1436
01:01:04,940 --> 01:01:07,850
Yeah, it's actually a million.
Oh my God.

1437
01:01:07,860 --> 01:01:12,190
Well, well, I really wanted to
try.

1438
01:01:12,200 --> 01:01:17,500
Yeah, I did spend a good chunk
of time convincing people that I

1439
01:01:17,510 --> 01:01:19,820
got to 1,000,000 instead.
So why are we doing this?

1440
01:01:19,830 --> 01:01:21,340
This is not.
You did it to me.

1441
01:01:21,350 --> 01:01:23,130
You you were like you.
I remember you trying to

1442
01:01:23,140 --> 01:01:24,840
convince me that you everybody.
On the whole time.

1443
01:01:24,850 --> 01:01:25,970
But there was a There was a
minute.

1444
01:01:25,980 --> 01:01:30,330
I was like, did he?
Pulling that prank on me, but

1445
01:01:30,340 --> 01:01:31,630
you didn't.
Amazing.

1446
01:01:31,640 --> 01:01:33,260
Well, it was really interesting
to hear a story.

1447
01:01:33,330 --> 01:01:34,990
If anyone's got any more
questions, write them in.

1448
01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:36,320
I'm sure Dan will be happy to
let you know.

1449
01:01:36,330 --> 01:01:38,360
Ignore them just like that.
No child woman.

1450
01:01:38,490 --> 01:01:40,610
Ohh God's.
Sake ohh.

1451
01:01:40,620 --> 01:01:42,220
Anyway, time for another Jingle,
I think.

1452
01:01:44,630 --> 01:01:47,000
We're going to move on now to a
session that we've loved doing

1453
01:01:47,010 --> 01:01:49,530
in the past few episodes.
That was another Jingle.

1454
01:01:49,540 --> 01:01:52,910
Dylan, you heard it here.
Jingle number 4-5.

1455
01:01:52,920 --> 01:01:54,690
Who knows?
If you know how many, let me

1456
01:01:54,700 --> 01:01:57,100
know.
Toxic schools.

1457
01:01:57,740 --> 01:02:00,090
One of my favourite segments.
Haven't done it in a while.

1458
01:02:00,160 --> 01:02:03,230
We like rinsing people for being
horrible in school, so let's do

1459
01:02:03,240 --> 01:02:04,610
that.
I've got a few things.

1460
01:02:04,620 --> 01:02:07,810
I've just as always been
scouring the Internet, scouring

1461
01:02:07,820 --> 01:02:10,170
forums and all those sorts of
things and I look for anonymous

1462
01:02:10,180 --> 01:02:12,540
posts or people just saying
things and I think that would be

1463
01:02:12,550 --> 01:02:14,230
interesting to share.
So here's my first one.

1464
01:02:14,240 --> 01:02:16,950
I read a post today and by the
way, this is from like the last

1465
01:02:16,960 --> 01:02:19,130
two days.
This stuff happens all the time.

1466
01:02:19,140 --> 01:02:21,880
It's ridiculous.
So I saw someone saying they're

1467
01:02:21,890 --> 01:02:25,350
feeling broken and sad at the
moment and they were crying in a

1468
01:02:25,360 --> 01:02:27,550
car park whilst writing this
post.

1469
01:02:27,560 --> 01:02:31,320
I thought, crikey, here we go.
Um, because they've been off

1470
01:02:31,390 --> 01:02:33,990
school quite a bit recently with
hospital appointments.

1471
01:02:34,790 --> 01:02:37,720
Because they are suspected of
having cancer to having

1472
01:02:37,730 --> 01:02:39,840
biopsies.
So a horrible, horrible thing,

1473
01:02:39,850 --> 01:02:42,470
right?
And she was told that the sample

1474
01:02:42,480 --> 01:02:46,330
that they took, they needed to
get another one and her school.

1475
01:02:47,010 --> 01:02:49,200
Have already got hold on a
written warning for having too

1476
01:02:49,210 --> 01:02:53,240
much time out of school.
And now she is more scared about

1477
01:02:53,250 --> 01:02:56,180
coming up, coming out of school
to go back to the hospital to go

1478
01:02:56,190 --> 01:02:59,720
for like a horrible process than
she is actually the horrible

1479
01:02:59,730 --> 01:03:01,020
process.
She's like scared about what her

1480
01:03:01,030 --> 01:03:03,330
school are gonna do and she was
asking for advice on whether

1481
01:03:03,340 --> 01:03:04,920
she's going to get fired for
having more hospital

1482
01:03:04,930 --> 01:03:08,020
appointments or not.
I just, I read this whole thing.

1483
01:03:08,030 --> 01:03:09,830
I was thinking, Oh my God, this
is like, this is horrendous.

1484
01:03:09,840 --> 01:03:12,640
This is a horrible.
How How could this have been

1485
01:03:12,650 --> 01:03:16,550
twisted?
Yeah, I I don't know.

1486
01:03:16,560 --> 01:03:19,540
I can't really.
I don't think anyone with a

1487
01:03:19,550 --> 01:03:23,840
soul, like anyone with any who's
on the other side of this

1488
01:03:23,850 --> 01:03:25,840
debate, like, is it?
It must just be the people in

1489
01:03:25,850 --> 01:03:27,700
charge of the school.
I don't get it.

1490
01:03:27,710 --> 01:03:30,540
Like, I know there are
procedures and stuff, but even

1491
01:03:30,550 --> 01:03:33,480
if you have to be, let's say,
for example, right, that you're

1492
01:03:33,490 --> 01:03:36,520
absent quite a bit because of
this, because of a genuinely

1493
01:03:36,530 --> 01:03:39,990
horrible circumstance, right.
But for whatever reason, because

1494
01:03:40,000 --> 01:03:42,210
we're not in SLT.
So I feel sometimes we're a bit,

1495
01:03:42,220 --> 01:03:44,020
you know, maybe we're being a
bit of noxious, we don't

1496
01:03:44,030 --> 01:03:45,100
actually know what needs to go
on.

1497
01:03:45,170 --> 01:03:48,120
But maybe it does need to be
documented, right, that a

1498
01:03:48,130 --> 01:03:52,300
certain employee has missed a
lot of time, um, simply just to

1499
01:03:52,310 --> 01:03:54,640
keep the books straight and sort
out pay and stuff like that.

1500
01:03:54,650 --> 01:03:56,380
All right, so maybe that's a
thing that needs to happen.

1501
01:03:56,830 --> 01:04:02,420
The the problem here is the fact
that she feels that way about

1502
01:04:02,490 --> 01:04:05,510
having to continue to receive
treatment for a potentially life

1503
01:04:05,520 --> 01:04:08,740
threatening disease.
The it's straight away puts the

1504
01:04:08,750 --> 01:04:10,540
blame on the people running the
system.

1505
01:04:10,550 --> 01:04:13,140
Because no matter whether you
have to do this or not, whether

1506
01:04:13,150 --> 01:04:15,040
you have to write someone up,
whether you have to give them a

1507
01:04:15,050 --> 01:04:18,180
warning for whatever reason, if
you're doing it in a way which

1508
01:04:18,190 --> 01:04:21,980
provokes this outcome from the
person, then that you're

1509
01:04:21,990 --> 01:04:23,920
unhinged.
There's something wrong with the

1510
01:04:23,930 --> 01:04:25,870
process.
What on earth are you doing?

1511
01:04:25,930 --> 01:04:27,200
Like, how can it get to that
point?

1512
01:04:27,210 --> 01:04:28,620
Do you not know what's
happening?

1513
01:04:28,690 --> 01:04:31,800
You have, like, no personal
human touch whatsoever to be

1514
01:04:31,810 --> 01:04:34,460
able to think, I'm going to go
and put my arm around her and

1515
01:04:34,470 --> 01:04:35,850
say, listen, we need to put
these.

1516
01:04:35,860 --> 01:04:37,980
We need to put this through the
system because obviously been

1517
01:04:37,990 --> 01:04:38,920
off.
We need to make sure you get

1518
01:04:38,930 --> 01:04:39,980
your sick pay and whatever it
is.

1519
01:04:39,990 --> 01:04:42,370
But we're here for you, you
know, I hope everything goes

1520
01:04:42,380 --> 01:04:43,910
well.
If it doesn't, just let us know

1521
01:04:43,920 --> 01:04:46,560
and we'll sort it out.
It sounds like it's just all

1522
01:04:46,570 --> 01:04:49,530
right, all right, cool.
I'll try that.

1523
01:04:49,600 --> 01:04:51,840
That's a warning, by the way.
It's been 3 days now.

1524
01:04:51,920 --> 01:04:54,200
See you.
Yeah, I don't get it.

1525
01:04:54,270 --> 01:04:57,100
Maybe there's more to it, you
know, maybe every story has got

1526
01:04:57,110 --> 01:04:58,040
two sides.
I get that.

1527
01:04:58,050 --> 01:04:59,600
Maybe there's more that we don't
understand.

1528
01:04:59,610 --> 01:05:02,420
But the idea, like you said,
that the crux is this person is

1529
01:05:02,430 --> 01:05:04,810
more scared about telling their
school they've got to go and

1530
01:05:04,820 --> 01:05:07,940
have a second biopsy than they
are to have the 2nd biopsy.

1531
01:05:08,030 --> 01:05:09,460
So like you said, a life
threatening condition.

1532
01:05:09,470 --> 01:05:11,670
It just, I don't know, it got my
back up when I read it and I

1533
01:05:11,680 --> 01:05:13,380
thought I'd share it with you
just to get yours up too.

1534
01:05:13,470 --> 01:05:15,480
I've got another one, a second
one.

1535
01:05:16,210 --> 01:05:19,210
Someone else literally a few
more posts down like a day ago,

1536
01:05:19,290 --> 01:05:22,080
said they're worried at the
moment that they're being

1537
01:05:22,090 --> 01:05:25,250
penalised by their school.
For for going on maternity

1538
01:05:25,260 --> 01:05:27,010
leave.
Ohh.

1539
01:05:27,100 --> 01:05:29,120
Like, just already.
That's enough, isn't it?

1540
01:05:29,130 --> 01:05:31,180
Right.
So yeah, they came back at the

1541
01:05:31,190 --> 01:05:33,410
end of the summer term.
Very, very classic thing to do,

1542
01:05:33,420 --> 01:05:35,640
completely in your right.
And I encourage doing it.

1543
01:05:35,650 --> 01:05:38,070
Come back on the last day of
school and get paid for summer.

1544
01:05:38,080 --> 01:05:39,690
There's not many other perks in
this job.

1545
01:05:39,700 --> 01:05:41,690
Do it and you'll be working over
summer anyway, because we all

1546
01:05:41,700 --> 01:05:43,470
do, so let's not pretend we're
not.

1547
01:05:44,160 --> 01:05:46,110
Anyway, so they came back at the
end of the summer and they were

1548
01:05:46,120 --> 01:05:49,310
given like tonnes of planning to
do over the summer.

1549
01:05:49,380 --> 01:05:51,970
Way more.
Sort of like a penance for,

1550
01:05:51,980 --> 01:05:54,100
well, you've come back after
summer and you've been off for a

1551
01:05:54,110 --> 01:05:57,330
year.
So it felt like it was just not

1552
01:05:57,340 --> 01:05:59,350
justified, like they were
getting way more work than other

1553
01:05:59,360 --> 01:06:00,630
people.
They've been told to plan this

1554
01:06:00,640 --> 01:06:02,650
like enormous unit.
It's gotta be ready for

1555
01:06:02,660 --> 01:06:06,230
September day one.
But they didn't explicitly say

1556
01:06:06,240 --> 01:06:07,370
you've got to do it in the
summer.

1557
01:06:07,380 --> 01:06:10,030
They just did that classic thing
of like, it's got to be ready

1558
01:06:10,040 --> 01:06:12,340
for September.
Make sure you get that done.

1559
01:06:13,090 --> 01:06:15,260
Heavily implied that, well,
obviously I've got to do that in

1560
01:06:15,270 --> 01:06:17,460
my summer holidays then.
So they're basically just

1561
01:06:17,470 --> 01:06:19,820
annoyed that they feel like
they're clearly taking action

1562
01:06:19,830 --> 01:06:21,550
against her because she took
maternity leave.

1563
01:06:21,610 --> 01:06:23,530
So that's nice.
I wouldn't do it.

1564
01:06:23,580 --> 01:06:25,920
I wouldn't do it.
And I'm like, look at this

1565
01:06:25,930 --> 01:06:28,980
person listening.
But these are the moments,

1566
01:06:28,990 --> 01:06:30,660
right?
And I've said this a few times

1567
01:06:30,910 --> 01:06:34,760
where we have as a staff, as a
profession, decided to strike

1568
01:06:34,890 --> 01:06:37,220
right because of pain
conditions.

1569
01:06:37,350 --> 01:06:39,440
To me.
At a lower threshold than that

1570
01:06:39,450 --> 01:06:43,700
is when we stop doing this stuff
for people who take advantage of

1571
01:06:43,710 --> 01:06:46,190
us.
So if we've decided to strike,

1572
01:06:46,260 --> 01:06:48,550
that means we've also have to
have decided to put our foot

1573
01:06:48,560 --> 01:06:50,250
down in these situations and
just say no.

1574
01:06:50,380 --> 01:06:53,550
And what I would do is I would
just go and find out amongst the

1575
01:06:53,560 --> 01:06:56,690
team how much planning there is
distributed, because it has to

1576
01:06:56,700 --> 01:06:58,530
be even.
It doesn't matter what's

1577
01:06:58,540 --> 01:07:00,950
happened beforehand.
You're back at work on the last

1578
01:07:00,960 --> 01:07:03,840
day of the summer time, everyone
else is working on the last day

1579
01:07:03,850 --> 01:07:06,040
of summer time.
From then on everything has to

1580
01:07:06,050 --> 01:07:09,670
be equally split and if
something has to be done by the

1581
01:07:09,680 --> 01:07:13,330
1st of September, then it needs
to have been shared before the

1582
01:07:13,340 --> 01:07:15,650
last day of summer time.
Because what's essentially

1583
01:07:15,660 --> 01:07:18,750
happening at that point is I
forget the maternity thing.

1584
01:07:18,820 --> 01:07:22,100
If someone said to me on the
last day of summer time, by the

1585
01:07:22,110 --> 01:07:24,870
way, brand new planning needed
starting in September, the first

1586
01:07:25,120 --> 01:07:26,910
you need to do this whole unit
for me, please.

1587
01:07:27,000 --> 01:07:31,310
I I would genuinely say I'd do
it if there was more warning.

1588
01:07:31,360 --> 01:07:34,320
But if they're saying on the
last day and well, we're not

1589
01:07:34,330 --> 01:07:36,160
directing you obviously because
we can't direct you on your

1590
01:07:36,170 --> 01:07:37,730
holidays.
But it needs to be done for

1591
01:07:37,740 --> 01:07:39,720
September the 1st.
How often does that happen in

1592
01:07:39,730 --> 01:07:41,300
schools?
You know we're not directing

1593
01:07:41,310 --> 01:07:42,440
you.
We're not directing you.

1594
01:07:42,490 --> 01:07:44,420
It just needs to get done.
Go when?

1595
01:07:44,430 --> 01:07:45,830
Yeah, yeah.
I'm not going to say when, I'm

1596
01:07:45,840 --> 01:07:47,720
not going to say when cause that
be directing your time, but

1597
01:07:47,730 --> 01:07:49,460
you've got to get it done.
Yeah, it's.

1598
01:07:49,470 --> 01:07:51,560
I think there's a little bit of
misconceptions there between

1599
01:07:51,710 --> 01:07:52,810
like what director time can
mean.

1600
01:07:52,820 --> 01:07:54,020
I'm not directing you when to do
it.

1601
01:07:54,030 --> 01:07:55,560
You could do it whenever you
want.

1602
01:07:55,930 --> 01:07:58,100
That's the problem.
It's no, no, no, it doesn't.

1603
01:07:58,110 --> 01:07:59,430
You don't have to tell me when
to do it.

1604
01:07:59,440 --> 01:08:01,460
Like their point would be I'm
not telling you to do on a

1605
01:08:01,470 --> 01:08:04,060
Sunday or Tuesday or Monday.
I'm not directing your time at

1606
01:08:04,070 --> 01:08:05,240
all.
It just needs to be done.

1607
01:08:05,330 --> 01:08:07,990
The problem is you're still
implying that it has to be done

1608
01:08:08,000 --> 01:08:10,460
in that time and none of which
you can direct in any way.

1609
01:08:10,510 --> 01:08:12,370
So you're directing some of that
time.

1610
01:08:12,380 --> 01:08:14,920
You're just not saying exactly
when it just can't be done.

1611
01:08:14,930 --> 01:08:17,080
So yeah, I would agree my advice
to that person would be

1612
01:08:17,090 --> 01:08:19,200
absolutely don't do it.
Do do you know?

1613
01:08:19,210 --> 01:08:21,310
Do what you feel is necessary?
We all do a little bit of work

1614
01:08:21,319 --> 01:08:22,109
over summer.
I get it.

1615
01:08:22,120 --> 01:08:23,390
We have to just be ready for
September.

1616
01:08:23,399 --> 01:08:25,390
But there's a there is a limit.
There is a limit.

1617
01:08:25,399 --> 01:08:27,590
And if someone's taking
advantage of you or trying to

1618
01:08:27,740 --> 01:08:30,300
penalise you for taking
maternity leave, a statutory.

1619
01:08:30,310 --> 01:08:33,220
Right that ohh, just yeah, I'm
not going to go there.

1620
01:08:33,260 --> 01:08:35,830
But Speaking of paternity leave
if you haven't listened to our

1621
01:08:35,840 --> 01:08:42,540
episode with Sophie Bartlett
episode 719191915 something like

1622
01:08:42,550 --> 01:08:44,770
somewhere we know our episodes
do.

1623
01:08:44,779 --> 01:08:46,660
Go back and listen to it because
if you're thinking of going on

1624
01:08:46,670 --> 01:08:49,109
maternity leave at some point or
you want it now, really good.

1625
01:08:49,120 --> 01:08:51,260
Listen, because she talks about
shared parental leave and just.

1626
01:08:51,340 --> 01:08:53,270
Really.
Your rights and hell yeah was

1627
01:08:53,279 --> 01:08:55,390
just that's not, that's not be
walked over as profession.

1628
01:08:55,399 --> 01:08:58,310
You know take take what you are
entitled to.

1629
01:08:58,800 --> 01:09:00,750
Absolutely and don't feel bad
about it.

1630
01:09:00,859 --> 01:09:03,810
So that's my toxic stories Dan.
I'm sorry to get you riled up

1631
01:09:03,819 --> 01:09:06,310
after such a nice story about
you.

1632
01:09:07,670 --> 01:09:11,140
He was the millionaire.
Listen, I've been stripped of my

1633
01:09:11,149 --> 01:09:13,580
lead anchor role and I still
managed to talk more than anyone

1634
01:09:13,590 --> 01:09:14,109
this.
Episode.

1635
01:09:14,330 --> 01:09:16,439
Yeah, I know.
You probably talk more than me

1636
01:09:16,540 --> 01:09:19,710
than ever in an episode before.
That's because you're the guest.

1637
01:09:19,750 --> 01:09:21,580
I'm just saying, yeah, you made
your guest here.

1638
01:09:21,590 --> 01:09:23,160
So this is actually that's.
True.

1639
01:09:23,270 --> 01:09:25,000
Well episode as always getting
on.

1640
01:09:25,010 --> 01:09:27,420
So I'm gonna finish with a
stories from the classroom.

1641
01:09:27,430 --> 01:09:30,200
Just a funny story light hearted
just to cheer everybody up and

1642
01:09:30,210 --> 01:09:33,040
hopefully cheer you up as well
after those little toxic stories

1643
01:09:33,050 --> 01:09:34,830
don't thank you.
Right, so it's been.

1644
01:09:34,840 --> 01:09:37,550
I'm gonna read it off off my
screen here and you can react as

1645
01:09:37,560 --> 01:09:41,090
you will.
This person said, I listened to

1646
01:09:41,100 --> 01:09:44,180
one of your your episodes where
Hayden said that every teacher

1647
01:09:44,189 --> 01:09:46,260
farts in the classroom and walks
away.

1648
01:09:46,630 --> 01:09:48,640
I did say that back in one of
the earlier episodes.

1649
01:09:48,649 --> 01:09:50,800
It's true by the way.
Well, he's right.

1650
01:09:50,810 --> 01:09:52,540
We all do it.
I do it.

1651
01:09:52,870 --> 01:09:55,060
However, I have taken it one
step further.

1652
01:09:56,740 --> 01:10:00,610
During my second year, during my
second year of teaching, I had a

1653
01:10:00,620 --> 01:10:03,200
particularly gassy stomach after
a heavy night out the night

1654
01:10:03,210 --> 01:10:05,090
before in brackets.
I was young.

1655
01:10:05,140 --> 01:10:07,830
I couldn't do this now.
Definitely also true.

1656
01:10:07,840 --> 01:10:09,230
By the way.
There's no way you'd catch me

1657
01:10:09,240 --> 01:10:11,130
going out past about 8:00 PM on
a school night.

1658
01:10:12,310 --> 01:10:14,880
Mid teaching and walking around
the classroom, I decided to let

1659
01:10:14,890 --> 01:10:18,360
out a silent but deadly whopper.
Knowing how many times I'd got

1660
01:10:18,370 --> 01:10:21,840
away with this before, I was
confident in my abilities to

1661
01:10:21,850 --> 01:10:24,540
drop, run, and justice watch the
chaos unfold.

1662
01:10:24,870 --> 01:10:28,800
However, I learned that day the
good old lesson of never push a

1663
01:10:28,810 --> 01:10:32,290
fart out.
I think we know what's coming.

1664
01:10:32,680 --> 01:10:34,550
I'm sure you've guessed what
happens next.

1665
01:10:35,510 --> 01:10:39,650
I followed through.
Lesson who's?

1666
01:10:39,890 --> 01:10:45,010
Lesson ohh mate.
And I had to make up an excuse

1667
01:10:45,020 --> 01:10:48,010
for a nearby TA to come in the
room and take over whilst I

1668
01:10:48,020 --> 01:10:51,430
waddled to the toilet.
Nowadays, I think twice before

1669
01:10:51,440 --> 01:10:54,110
letting it rip.
Thank you for plucking up the

1670
01:10:54,120 --> 01:10:55,630
courage.
I won't read your name.

1671
01:10:56,540 --> 01:10:58,440
I won't read your name or your
location.

1672
01:10:58,450 --> 01:11:02,970
You're not Andy Stevens.
Yeah ohh, there was nothing

1673
01:11:02,980 --> 01:11:04,710
actually written there that was
from my memory.

1674
01:11:06,700 --> 01:11:08,290
It wasn't about disclaimer out
there.

1675
01:11:08,300 --> 01:11:11,020
You know what though it is.
It is good though I must say no

1676
01:11:11,030 --> 01:11:14,190
matter cause I that story
scarred me a little bit because

1677
01:11:14,500 --> 01:11:18,370
like that's just disgusting.
But whenever we get stories in

1678
01:11:18,380 --> 01:11:20,790
from people they always just
seem to be on another level.

1679
01:11:20,800 --> 01:11:23,090
I don't know who these people
are who are writing into us

1680
01:11:23,100 --> 01:11:25,210
because I've not seen this one.
I don't know you got that story

1681
01:11:25,280 --> 01:11:28,600
but if you have a story I think
what we're gonna have to do

1682
01:11:28,610 --> 01:11:30,770
Hayden is set up kind of an
anonymous link because when

1683
01:11:30,780 --> 01:11:32,470
people e-mail us we still see
who it is.

1684
01:11:32,480 --> 01:11:35,150
Obviously we we know the names,
which I think it puts people off

1685
01:11:35,160 --> 01:11:37,630
sometimes.
Maybe we just great some kind of

1686
01:11:37,700 --> 01:11:40,420
completely anonymous link and
then you can send us your

1687
01:11:40,430 --> 01:11:42,410
stories in and be as crude as
you want.

1688
01:11:43,380 --> 01:11:45,750
That sounds like a good plan,
and hopefully we'll get plenty

1689
01:11:45,760 --> 01:11:48,290
more like this to share.
But don't be embarrassed, guys.

1690
01:11:48,420 --> 01:11:50,810
Your chances are you're going to
tell a story in somewhat someone

1691
01:11:50,860 --> 01:11:52,750
out there listening.
It's gonna be like, Yep,

1692
01:11:52,800 --> 01:11:55,700
happened to me.
Maybe not this one, but maybe.

1693
01:11:56,180 --> 01:12:00,190
You know, you never know.
God, I can't believe that

1694
01:12:00,200 --> 01:12:04,910
someone wrote that into us.
We're not your therapist, love,

1695
01:12:04,980 --> 01:12:06,290
OK?
We're not the people to solve

1696
01:12:06,300 --> 01:12:08,950
this problem for you.
If you can think you can go out

1697
01:12:08,960 --> 01:12:13,440
and night out and did the class
we're not the guys.

1698
01:12:13,550 --> 01:12:14,460
I don't know.
You think we?

1699
01:12:14,470 --> 01:12:16,440
Are we?
Are we are the guys.

1700
01:12:16,450 --> 01:12:18,360
Keep writing them in.
We are the guys.

1701
01:12:18,730 --> 01:12:20,960
This is our this is our therapy
session.

1702
01:12:20,970 --> 01:12:25,600
And we're here to say well done,
we're proud of you.

1703
01:12:25,650 --> 01:12:28,230
It made us, made a funny moment
for us.

1704
01:12:28,790 --> 01:12:31,180
Maybe don't do it again.
Maybe.

1705
01:12:31,230 --> 01:12:34,920
And I'm just going to say Hayden
bravo, on your first lead Ankara

1706
01:12:34,930 --> 01:12:38,780
appearance, you really wanted to
show the people why we decided

1707
01:12:38,790 --> 01:12:40,860
from the offset that I was in
charge and we did that today.

1708
01:12:41,610 --> 01:12:43,400
Did we?
Well, that's the poll.

1709
01:12:43,470 --> 01:12:45,140
So go and vote now.
Who should be the?

1710
01:12:45,180 --> 01:12:47,290
Have we done that before?
No, we don't mean that we should

1711
01:12:47,300 --> 01:12:48,830
do.
Yeah, we should do a very simple

1712
01:12:48,840 --> 01:12:50,510
one.
OK, which is?

1713
01:12:50,700 --> 01:12:52,610
Should I cut it off at the end
of the podcast?

1714
01:12:54,130 --> 01:12:55,680
This.
Now go and speak.

1715
01:12:55,690 --> 01:12:59,370
You shouldn't go on.
I'm scared.

1716
01:12:59,520 --> 01:13:01,090
That's right.
You speak, you look up.

1717
01:13:01,420 --> 01:13:03,200
No ohh you.
Wouldn't do that.

1718
01:13:03,420 --> 01:13:05,630
Let's be real quick.
No, tell us that's a quick

1719
01:13:05,640 --> 01:13:07,610
plant.
No, please do take over and do

1720
01:13:07,620 --> 01:13:11,590
tell us the poll.
You asked me what's in the

1721
01:13:11,600 --> 01:13:13,880
bottle.
I think the polls should be so.

1722
01:13:13,890 --> 01:13:15,670
Basically, should it be?
Should I?

1723
01:13:15,960 --> 01:13:17,610
I try to get, you know, it's
coming.

1724
01:13:17,760 --> 01:13:18,410
Go on.
Was coming.

1725
01:13:18,420 --> 01:13:19,210
I stopped.
I stopped.

1726
01:13:19,220 --> 01:13:20,790
Going I I promise I won't.
Now I won't.

1727
01:13:20,800 --> 01:13:23,430
Hayden, there's jokes over
Listen, listen.

1728
01:13:23,860 --> 01:13:26,090
The person who interrupts the
most knows exactly when to

1729
01:13:26,100 --> 01:13:27,870
interrupt, so I know when to
stop because you're gonna come

1730
01:13:27,880 --> 01:13:29,070
in.
And I was like, yeah, do it.

1731
01:13:29,080 --> 01:13:32,230
Then stop interrupting.
It should just be very simple.

1732
01:13:32,860 --> 01:13:35,250
Was this episode any good?
No.

1733
01:13:35,360 --> 01:13:38,380
No.
I wouldn't know.

1734
01:13:39,810 --> 01:13:41,730
And older people can't vote yes.
Why would we do that?

1735
01:13:41,980 --> 01:13:45,190
That's weird.
Yeah, it was a joke of the

1736
01:13:45,200 --> 01:13:45,930
banter.
It's.

1737
01:13:45,940 --> 01:13:48,930
The banter Listen, we're gonna
end if you want more jokes and

1738
01:13:48,940 --> 01:13:52,100
more silly school banter and you
want to learn more about schools

1739
01:13:52,180 --> 01:13:55,020
and more about us and more about
Dylan how he interrupts me and

1740
01:13:55,030 --> 01:13:56,830
and people pouring themselves at
school.

1741
01:13:56,980 --> 01:13:59,350
Then tune into another episode.
Dylan, did you want to say

1742
01:13:59,360 --> 01:14:02,290
anything before we go?
You can cut me off probably, but

1743
01:14:02,300 --> 01:14:04,370
I was just going to say pretty
much made it this far.

1744
01:14:04,920 --> 01:14:09,170
We do have a very, very special
guest next week and it's well

1745
01:14:09,180 --> 01:14:12,130
worth you guys tuning in.
So do follow, do press the bell,

1746
01:14:12,260 --> 01:14:13,970
give us a rating.
All that good stuff, it really

1747
01:14:13,980 --> 01:14:15,470
helps us out.
So that's it from us.

1748
01:14:15,560 --> 01:14:18,210
For me, Hayden the lead anchor
to this episode and probably all

1749
01:14:18,220 --> 01:14:21,220
future episodes as well.
And also the other guy, Dylan,

1750
01:14:21,230 --> 01:14:23,990
the Mr Hypocritical Teacher here
who talks about striking and

1751
01:14:24,000 --> 01:14:26,860
getting more money and he's got
125 K sat in the bank.

1752
01:14:28,920 --> 01:14:31,610
What have I done to you?
Alright mate, see you later.

1753
01:14:31,620 --> 01:14:32,280
Bye.
