And Ellis came in the studio with his dick on the table and said, "I've got something to say."

So bro, well gone. What do you want to ask? Cool. So random one, right? I've been watching House of the Dragon. It's been fucking amazing. Yeah. And I'll random question pops up in my head, right?

If you were in the Game of Thrones- You've watched Game of Thrones, right, Rem? Cool, cool, cool. Good, good, good. Yeah. So, um... No, because I had a feeling Rem wasn't, and I was like, damn. That's gonna suck. Based on what he says. To be fair. Safe assumption. It's a safe assumption. Cool. If you were in the Game of Thrones universe...

One, which family would you want to be tied to? And what position would you want to be? Would you want to be master of coin? Would you want to be... Hand of the king? Yeah, hand of the king, anything. What would you want to... Or just be a regular knight? Popped up in my head randomly when I was watching it. I was like, what would I want to be? What house would I want to belong to? Off the cuff, bro. It's easy to say I'd want to be a Targaryen, isn't it? Yeah. It's an easy answer, bro. But...

I can't be banging sister cousin just to keep this blunting going. I'm not on it. Yeah, fair. Run me one of them mixies from the sea people. That's his cousin as well, isn't it? Yeah, his cousin. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, damn. Yeah, they love a brother cousin. Yeah. That's their thing, bro. Jeez. Without the incest, I'll go Targaryen. Yeah, me too. 100%. Yeah, I think everyone will pick that, but...

You can't say without the incest because it's... That's just the bag. That's just their bag. Yeah. I would say, even though they didn't last that long in the actual whole series, I'll say like the Khal Drogo family. I can't remember what their tribe is called. They...

They're flipping... Bro, they are... Dothraki. Dothraki. You'd want to be a Dothraki. I'd be a Dothraki because I... They're sick. Yeah. Yeah. I just feel like... I feel like...

Their creed alone is just so like strong. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And they take shit from no one. If there's nothing like, oh, but you attacked me, so we're going to wait and plot. Bro, they're on smoke straight away. Yeah, I'm just on it. Just straight away. Yeah, I just feel like my best chance of survival is with the Dothraki. Fair, fair. What would you choose? I think I would be in the Kingsguard, you know? Sure. I just like how like,

Like it's strict as fuck obviously, but it's like, yeah, you're protected, but it's also, I don't know. I like the loyalty aspect of it. Like they're all like a band of brothers in a way. Like, I don't know if they actually want to be there, but like, I don't know. It just looks sick. Fair. Like it's just the lads and like, I don't know. It just looks cool. It's like a band of brothers. I like it. Say less. Um, I think in from house of dragons wise anyway, um,

Call his Valerian. Valerian is black. It's got dreads. I'm halfway there. - Fair. - Yeah. - Well, they call him the sea serpent. - Yeah, the sea serpent. King of the seas, man. - Yeah, yeah. - He is sick, yeah. - Yeah, Valerian's a strong family. - Fucking good shout. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Got a couple of dragons in there too. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Fair play. - I feel like you'd be straight in the whorehouse. - Who? - You'd go straight in the whorehouse. - Who? - All of you, I think.

- I think you'd be living in there. - I don't see why I wouldn't, bro. - It's normal. - Yeah, it's just part of the culture over there. - It's just what they do, bro. - Yeah, that's just what they do, bro. - It wouldn't be an alien thing to do. - Yeah. - Yeah. - Yeah. - Yeah. - Yeah. - How many episodes is that? - I'm actually not. - There's only two. - I've seen the first one, obviously, but I haven't seen the second one. - I've seen one. Amazing. - There's no spoiler. I was just gonna say, running off what you said about being in the whorehouse, like, Aymond, the bread up with this,

He was up there. You remember he was caught up with a bad bitch. Just caught up naked, just confessing to one whore. So, and it's normalized bro. And he's the King of Jason. - Yeah. - Fair man. - Yeah. The tiger is loving in there boy. - They do. - They love it in there. Damn. - They love to bang. - Yeah. They really do. - Love sex. - Yeah.

- Anyway. Anyway. All right, good question bro. Fair play. All right, so we haven't done this in a long time. A long, long time. I'm pretty certain I'm gonna pattern it. We're gonna do a Try Not To Laugh, dark humor edition. - Try Not To Laugh, dark humor edition. And just a caveat, this is from Reddit, so you know it's dark. - Oh Jesus. - That's the pits of the internet, bro. - All right, Reddit is essentially the dark web. - It is the dark web. - Yeah, so all right, cool. Try Not To Laugh.

Dark humor edition. We'll see how we go. I think you do okay. All right. Okay, cool. You rarely ever say that. So gang, my love is like a candle because if you forget about me, I'll burn your fucking house to the ground. That was light to be fair. Easy start. I was digging in our garden and found a chest full of gold coins. I wanted to run straight home to tell my wife about it. Then I remembered why I was digging in our garden. Cool. Yeah. Good. Really wanted the day off.

So I texted my boss, me. I can't come in today. I'm sick, boss. How sick are you? Me. Well, I'm currently in bed with my sister. Okay, that was funny. That actually was really funny. Damn, all right. Say less. Maybe I am a tiger in. I found that funny. All right, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool. Why didn't the chicken cross the road? Why? Because it met a black guy before the zebra crossing. All right, I knew the black jokes were going to come and I knew I was going to struggle with them.

You did one before. - I remember. - Where you would like, I can't even remember. I couldn't get through the sentence. - Yeah. You said you're doing so well. And I was like, all right, cool, cool, cool. And I promised it as, oh, why do black people? - Yeah, yeah, yeah. I just laughed. - You both just burst out laughing. - You both, you burst out laughing. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, I remember. - Okay. How do racists convey laughter through text? - Go on. - KKK. - Cool, cool, cool. All right. - How can you spot a vegan?

- How? - Don't worry, they'll fucking tell you. - I've heard that one before, that's actually pretty funny. Fats as well. - All right, I've only got a few more anyway. - All right, say less. - Yeah, see it's not that bad. - It's not that bad. - What's worse than ants in your pants? Uncles. - Nah! That was not on, bro! That's not on! I'm vexed I laughed at that one. - All right. - Fuck! - All right, cool. - What did Jeffrey Dahmer have in his freezer? - For fuck's sake.

Go on, what? Ben and Jerry. Okay, cool. All right, that was clean, yeah. Who can suck a dick like no one else? Who? Your mom. I couldn't keep a straight face. For fuck's sake, bro. All right, cool. Any more? I've got a few more. All right, go, go, go. Cool. All right, say less. What did the orphan ask for their birthday? Go on. Who cares? He ain't getting it.

- That's smart. - All right, yeah, go on. - When should you always bet on black? - For fuck sake. Can I guess, is it like fucking 100 meter sprint or something? - Track and field. - Yeah, yeah, track and field is the answer.

Track and field. Yeah, say less. Oh, God. That was Try Not To Laugh. You did well. Well played. I think I did all right, man. You did all right. That one, I'm vexed about the ones that made me laugh, but fair play. I miss Try Not To Laugh. So do I. I even miss the Dad Joke Edition, bro. Oh, yeah. Yeah, bro. Some of them were funny, man. They were. I feel like during the time we did them, we rinsed out so many on the internet. We rinsed it out, but it's been like three years, two years at least. So I think we

We can try again Yeah I'll have a listen But yeah Anyway So I had a random thing I wanted to say I'm vexed about the timing It's literally As soon as we come back From America Okay

Anderson Paak is doing a Malibu tour. - Oh. - So Malibu is literally, I think my favorite album of all time. - You mentioned that last week. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. I genuinely think it's a masterpiece. It is an unbelievable album and you can tell how much, because it's not even his fault. He's not been able to match it since. - Okay. - He's dropped like two more albums after that. Maybe even three.

Maybe a collab album for sure. Oh yeah, he's got the collab album. I wasn't even including the collab album. He's still songwriting an album. He's done Ventura, Oxnard, and then yeah, Malibu. Oh, Venice as well. Yeah, bros. Oh, and then he's dropped White Lord as well this year. Oh, he's been dropping albums, bro. Oh, wow. And yeah, bro. Yes, Lord is a good album as well. But Malibu is un...

Touchable. Is that the one that's got Twilight in it? No, it's actually not the one that's got Twilight in it. I think Oxnard or Oxnard might have Twilight in it. But this one has obviously got Heart Don't Stand a Chance, Put Me Through, Parking Lot, which is my favourite, Room In Here, Come Down. Love that song. Silicon Valley. No one really talks about Silicon Valley, but I love it.

Bro, it's just got, oh, it is just the best album, bro. If you guys haven't listened to it, I implore you, please listen to it. But yeah, they're doing a whole America tour and it's just the Malibu tour and they're just playing Malibu from beginning to end. Oh, and it's just when we come back? It starts in September, yeah. It's running for like two months. I'm loving it.

livid about it. - That's a shame. - It is a shame to the point where I would happily fly out just to watch it and then come back. - I was gonna say, is there a states that he's performing in that we don't go to on the tour that you would like to go to and watch it? - Rhym, can you please, can you pull up the Malibu tour for me and we can have a look?

it's kind of bait places or kind of places that we are already going. - I mean, we can run, we don't want to go into Vegas. - I was gonna say. - We can run back Vegas Fontainebleau. - Is he doing it in a Fontainebleau? - We can run back LV. - Go casino beforehand. - Yeah, it could be a little Vegas casino.

Fontainebleau, what day is the 28th please? If it's a Sunday, it's a live night. - Yeah, it could be messy. - If it's a Sunday, that's a... - Yeah. - Oh wait, no, live night is fucking Miami. What am I on about? - Live is Miami, yeah. - I don't know, maybe it's the same in Vegas. - It's a Saturday. - Ooh, Saturday, Vegas, late September. - Yeah. - That could be... - That could be tasty. That could be tasty. - Yeah, that could be calling on a cop.

- That's, yeah, we're gonna stick a pin in that. - All right, say less. - I think it's audacious. - It is. - 'Cause we would have been back like three weeks. - Yeah. - But who gives a fuck? - Yeah. - Yeah, who gives a fuck? - This is why we play. - I'm a grown man. - Yeah, this is why we play, bro. - Yeah, all right. - Cool. - Anderson, I know you're watching. I'll see you there, bro. - Facts. - 'Cause that, when I saw that, I was like, damn, I wanna see that. I love that album, bro. - Say less. - Shit, and like his,

His Tiny Desk is like top five best Tiny Desk of all time. And that's the song he plays from Malibu. Fair. So yeah, man. His band are awesome as well. Oh, Free Nationals are sick, bro. Yeah. Free Nationals. They've dropped a few songs. They did their own album without him. Yeah. And one of the songs they did with... They did a song on there with Chronix. Chronix, bro. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Sick song.

And they did one with Daniel Caesar on there as well, which is a banger. Yeah, bro. 28th. Vegas. Say less. Maybe a young meet and greet. Who knows, man? It could be messy. Yeah, who knows? It could be messy. Yeah, the visa's open. Yeah. We can do whatever we want. Facts. Facts. Pop in and pop out. Say less. All right, sick, man. But anyway.

Shall we get into the IG question? Let's. Let's, let's. So what's the question of the week, sir? The question of the week this week was, what's a disturbing fact that you know? The youngest person to give birth was five years old in like 1933 from Peru. I don't believe that. I don't believe that. Google it. Google it right now. Do we have to? I take your word for it. That's fine. Five years old? Five years old. Not to another human though, innit? To a you, yeah.

Are we sure it wasn't just their twin that came out? It was a twin that didn't make it throughout utero that was... Don't have to Google it. Oh, dear. Yeah, to be fair, I got some disturbing facts from him. One bro. It's a fact of his own life. Disturbing fact that only you know. That me and my brothers all slept with the same chick. No one knows but me. She married my youngest brother. There's seven of us. Seven. Seven of us.

Someone replied, you just want to be in the episode. There's seven of us. That's jokes. That made me laugh when I read that. That's jokes. You just want to be in the episode. You just want to be in the episode. And he made it. Yeah, he made it. First one. That's jokes. What's a disturbing fact that you know? A blue whale's tongue weighs as much as an adult elephant. Blue whales scare me. I think it's 8,000 pounds.

- Oh my God. - 8,000 pounds. That's like 4,000 kg. - Jesus. - Roughly. - Yeah. - Disturbing fact that only you know, the average person walks past 36 murders in their lifetime. - I've seen that. I've seen that fact rather. Yeah, it's crazy. - 36? - Yeah.

Walks past them how? I don't know, bro. - Not murders, murderers. - Oh, murderers. - Murderers. - Oh, it's not murderers. - Oh, murderers. - It's murderers. - Let me read it again. The average person walks past 36 murderers in their lifetime. Oh, so that's just based on stats. - Yeah. - Yeah. - Jesus Christ. Murderers? Is there that many of them are just bopping around? - Apparently. - That I'm bucking 36 of these, man. - Apparently so, bro. What's a disturbing fact that you know?

My dad has married and divorced three of my mom's cousins. Jeez. My mom was number four. Damn. Yeah. This one really made me feel sick. This one actually made me feel not even sick, uncomfortable. Okay. There was a time when babies were operated on without anesthetic. It was believed that their nervous system wasn't developed enough to feel pain. No. Yeah. That's brutal. Yeah, vile, bro. Really, really vile.

So they had the medicine available, they just assumed that the babies didn't need it. Yeah, because it's dangerous to put people under anaesthetic anyway. So they're probably like, bro, they can't feel pain anyway. And people are like, you're screaming, bro. I was like, you used to be screaming, G. That's traumatic. Yeah, bro, honestly. Fuck. What's a disturbing fact that you know? Roughly 22,000 people die in the UK due to medical errors. Every year, should I add? Sorry. Every year? Yeah.

medical errors you know 22 000 people that's a lot of medical errors every year there's a lot of people in this country there's a lot of people a lot of hospitals yeah don't get me wrong 20 000 a lot of people it is but yeah it's crazy jeez man yeah right next one all all cruise ships have a morgue for any deaths on the boat

If your cruise ever announces a random ice cream party, it's probably because there's not enough room in the morgue and they had to make room in the freezer. - What? - Bro. - What a random, wow. - Yeah. So people would just be dying on cruise ships. They got a morgue for it. And if too many people are dying, then randomly it's like, I just want to announce that at 3:00 PM today, we've got an ice cream party, free ice cream for everyone. - So they can free up some space. - Go to the deck. Yeah, we need some space in the freezer, bro. There's too many bodies.

- Imagine that being your job. - No, it's not my job and it won't ever be. - Jesus wept. All right, what's a disturbing fact that you know? You can't say hmm whilst holding your nose. - Yeah, you can't. - Yeah, cosign. - You actually can't. - You can't. - Wow, damn. Okay, cool. Next one. Disturbing fact that you know, yeah? How men and women's brains react to seeing someone unattractive. I think I've mentioned this before. For men,

parts of our brain associated with an annoyance light up for women the parts of their brain associated with inanimate objects lights up men get annoyed by ugly women and women don't see ugly men as human beings raw yeah that's why girls can just keep stepping as human beings yeah yeah yeah you're not the same species bro wow shut up wow that's peak

- Peak is right. - That's peak. - Right, what's a disturbing fact that you know? I caught my mum doing sexy chat with a guy that was scamming her for thousands, thousands. - Oh dear, that's embarrassing. - Embarrassing is the word. - Yeah. - Embarrassing is the word, right. - That's actually embarrassing. - Yeah, wow. - For God's sake. Right, from the day you are born, the number of people older than you will never increase, but it will be constantly decreasing.

- Mad. - Yeah. So from the day you're born, if there was a number on a board that said this many people in the world are older than you, your whole life you'll just be seeing it go down, down, down, down, down. And the older and older and older you get, bro, you might get to a point where you're old enough where it's just like, we're talking about like a thousand people are older than you in the world. - That's scary. - That's scary. - That's scary. Damn.

- Damn, that'll put things into perspective. - Yeah, bro. - Damn. All right, my last one I've got. What's a disturbing fact that you know? It's reported that there are 17 million flies per human being on this planet. - Nope. - 17 million per human. - Do you know what I'm stressed about now that Summer's here? - Flying ants? - For one, yes. - That's the worst time. - For one, yes. Bro, maggots. - Oh.

my black bin that sits outside, if they're in between collection days, if you don't get that bin lid closed, and I mean closed, and one fly gets in there, bro, you open that bin, oh my God. - Oh, man. - It's hell, man. It's hell. - Dead. Dead. - I hate it. I fucking hate it, you man. - Who would like it? - Yeah, yeah. - Who would?

- I can't stand it, man. I hate it. - I bet you. - Right, I've got one more. - All right. - I'm certain this is Cap. I'm certain this is Cap. Right. Disturbing fact that only you know, yeah? That cats first started meowing in an attempt to mimic a crying human child so that humans will take care of them. - Wow. - Google that, please. That can't be real. - I'm calling Cap on that. - Cats mimic a human cry so that the human would take care of the cat? - Yeah, bro. - Wow.

I thought it was cat, but then I thought... You're meowing and you're having it. Yeah, I'm meowing and I'm like, that is like a U. Yeah. All right. Scientists believe that cats can manipulate the tone and frequency of their vocalizations to effectively solicit our attention. This may be why the meows of many domestic cats mimic the cries of human babies. Though insistent meowing can be grating, it's no wonder that we feel hardwired to respond to it. Oh my God. Interesting.

- And also speaking of animals, the reason why dogs like squishy toys is the sounds of, it reminds them of animals dying. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. I remember you saying that before. That was back when you used to do Fun Facts. Do you remember that? - I do remember that, yeah. Fuck you, bro. Fun Facts, wow. - Yeah, throwback. - Throwback indeed. - Jeez. Yeah, that's scary. - That is. - Oh, I don't like that. - Weird. - That's why I don't have cats, man. - Yeah. - I love my cats. - I know you do.

Fuck them jawns, bro. Fuck you. Yeah. Fuck them cats. That's such a cat dad answer. That's such a cat dad answer, bro. So be it. Bro, they don't rate us, man. They eat our faces if we die in there. They don't care about us. But anyway, cool. You had a question for the team. I do have a question for the team. As of right now, I want you guys to actually...

take a second to think about this. As of right now, what are your top three snacks? First one, I can tell you. This is a paid advertisement for BetterHelp. Bro. Talk to me. Real quick, ask me what my self-care non-negotiables are. What? Grounding. Ha ha ha.

Wim Hof breath work. Yeah. Eight hour sleep. Non-negotiables. Those are three perfect non-negotiables. And I'm proud of you. Thank you very much. I'm very, very proud of you. It's like when people say never skip leg day, but it's never skip therapy day. We all know how easy it is for our schedules to become overwhelmed with social gatherings and other obligations that leave us struggling to make time for the things that fill our own cups. 100%. It's like when your schedule is packed with big work projects and more.

It's easy to let your priorities slip. Even when we know what makes us happy, it can be hard to make time for it.

But guys, when you feel like you have no time for yourself, non-negotiables like therapy are more important than ever. Agreed. And therapy has broader benefits like, for example, learning how to set boundaries in your life so that you feel empowered to be the best version of yourself. Exactly that. With almost 5,000 therapists in the UK already, BetterHelp can provide access to mental health professionals with a wide variety of expertise. Never skip therapy day with BetterHelp.

That's betterhelp, H-E-L-P.com/gigspod. - You can feel it in your mouth pores. - Yeah. - Yeah. - You salivated a little. - Marks and Spencer's have been doing these little mini yum yums. Boy. - Okay. - Oh boy. They are, I can't stop. - Okay. - So that's definitely one.

- Shell, no shell Skittles. - Okay. - Never had. - Cannot get enough, Ellis. I physically can't get enough. I haven't had them. I've had to, I had to stop. Like I refuse to buy them now. - Fair. - And then last snack is the Fox's Biscuits version of Jammy Dodgers. I don't know what they're called.

- Okay. - But they're like almost like half custard cream, half jammy dodger. - Okay. - And they sprinkle sugar on the top of it. - With a dot of jam on the top. - Yeah. - It's nasty business, bro. - They're good, man. - Okay. - They are good. - Yeah, they're- - I've not seen that, Jon. - Yeah, Fox's- - What's the name? - What do they call it? - Jam and Cream, rather. - Jam and Cream from Fox's. - Brother! - Okay. - Naughty. - Interesting. I'll let you guys say yours, but I wanna say,

I want everyone to bring in their favorite snacks and we'll try it on the Patreon episode. - Cool. Very good shout. - We'll try it on the next Patreon episode. - Yeah. - But Ellis, top three snacks. - So three snacks at the moment. It's been on the House of the Dragon Knights. Sorry to bring it up again, but I've been buying salted caramel Haagen-Dazs. Pop that open when there's an episode, it's gone.

It's really bad. I'll eat the whole tub in one night. It's bad. Because once it's open, dude, it's gone. It's a fair game, bro. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I've been backing Oreos lately. Love Oreos. I love Oreos as well. I can never get sick of Oreos. I love Oreos. I don't know what it is. Like, you know, when you have like certain cravings, certain stuff, Oreos are just always standard for me. I love Oreos. And then also, I've discovered, apparently it's well known. I never knew it. It's a chocolate brand called Green and Black.

It's like really high quality. - Dark chocolate. - It's got a bit of everything. I don't like dark chocolate. - I know of it from dark chocolate. - Yeah, they do a lot of mint shit as well. - Yeah, so it's like really high quality. It's literally got like four ingredients or whatever. It's like good quality organic. I've been having the white chocolate of that. It's just creamy goodness. - Pause. - Yes, I know.

Creamy goodness. - It's baggy to my likes. - Yeah, you fucking tart. - All right, yeah. - So less. - Remski. - Creamy goodness. - I've been going through half a tub of Pringles sour cream every single time I stream recently. - Really? - Sour cream, there's a chili flavor that I like now as well. I discovered that the other day. Barbecue, obvious flavor.

Nick, who we met at Go-Kart the other day, comrade, he said the Ready Salted is an elite flavor. It's not. And everyone avoid that at all costs in case you haven't tasted it. Pringles? Pringles Ready Salted.

Is that the original flavor? Yeah, it's red. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The red one. Oh, right. I've had them. That's the bog standard normal flavor. That's the bog standard normal flavor, yeah. I've had those. They're not bad. They're calm. There's far better flavors. Okay. I didn't know there was a chili one, though. I'm intrigued. He was saying that that was the most elite flavor. That's the point. Those malted milks, I guess.

Malted milk. They sell those still. That's a throwback. Malted milk. Yeah. Wow. I'm a biscuit guy. That's like a Tesco. Yeah, bro. That's a simplicity thing. Basic. Malted milk. Wow. Jeez. Can't think of the third. Again, biscuits. Probably like Maryland cookies. Double chocolate chip.

I won't eat two or three. The pack is gone. - Say less. Say less. - To be fair, Whole Foods cookies. - Yeah. I've never had them. - Brother. - Yeah. - I don't really fuck with dark chocolate that much. And they put dark chocolate in there. Something they're doing in there. And I think it's the catch-me-not too that you know it's organic. Whole Foods cookies. - Yeah. Make a comeback for more. - Oh, bro. That and, oh, slight tangent. Do you know what I made for the first time the other day?

down wave at the minute. - Okay. - Kimchi fried rice. - Swear? - Mm-hmm. - Okay. - Kimchi fried rice. - Yeah. - Okay. - Yeah, I made some kimchi fried rice. - Okay, how was that? - Good. - Yeah? - Yeah, really good. Really, really good. You gotta be careful though, 'cause it gets spicy fast. - Okay. - Depending on how much kimchi you've got in it, it gets spicy, 'cause you wanna get enough kimchi in there so that you're getting like decent textural changes from the cabbage and all that kind of shit. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - You put too much in there, bro, the fucking gochugaru or whatever that's in there,

It spreads out wildfire. All the little flakes of the chili, you will see it on every grain of rice and it gets spicy. Say less. But I really, really, really like it. I was gassed with it. Fair play. I'm gassed for you, G. Safe, bro. My top three snacks, not in any specific order. Butter kissed toffee popcorn.

- I can. - Really? - Yeah. - I get sick of that so quickly. I love it. - I don't. - Really? - I can. - It coats the bottom of your teeth. - I can dive into a ball pit full of them and eat a like fucking hungry hippo. Like that's how much I love them. I love them. - Wow. - I love them. - That says a lot about your sugar tolerance. - Yeah. - 'Cause I find it, I love my sweet shit. I find like, bro, like two handfuls of them, I'm done.

I can eat like the standard bag. Jeez. So that's number one or it's top three anyway. Number two is, number two are the Mars ice cream bars.

- Have you had those? - Elite. - I've had them. - Those motherfuckers. - My teeth are too sensitive for that. - Ha, I'm gonna bring them in next week. - I'm not eating it. - You will. - I've had it a hundred times. - When was the last time you had that? - Oh bro, when I was 10 like everyone else. - You're missing out. - All right, bro. - They are amazing. - Bring the lactose pills with you as well. - So that's number two. Number three, Mr. Kipling's, the lemon one, but.

There's an individually packed ones that they do. They do the regular ones like they do the cherry bakewell ones. And they do the individually packed ones. Those ones are different because they've got a little bit of pause cream in the middle. Like some lemon curd cream in the middle.

makes a world of a difference. - Shit. - That is a game changer. - Oh shit. - That is a game changer. - Oh. - Yeah, it's even packaged differently. - Damn. - It's the kit. - I'm trying to stay away from sugar, but this is sounding sexy. - Yeah. - All right, damn. - Yes, I couldn't get enough of that. - I saw a TikTok earlier where a guy made a burger out of a croissant. The bun was like smushed cooked croissant.

- That sounds incredible. - Yeah, bro. It makes you think like, so what? That pre-diabetic isn't that deep. - Yeah, it's not because there's food. - Yeah, bro. What's one incident shot when you can be eaten whatever you want? Yeah, it's nuts. It's crazy. - Damn. - All right, Rem Trash News. - Let's go. So why Parisians are planning

a shit flash mob in protest against filthy river River Seine ahead of the Olympics. Have you heard of this? Where is the Olympics this year? Paris. Paris. So, organizers have vowed to conduct a shit flash mob as President Macron takes to the water. France's revolutionary spirit is being relit by the Olympic flame as it has emerged. Parisians are planning an outrageous manner of protest ahead of the games this summer.

Renowned for their creative demonstrations, the French could outdo themselves as angry residents protest their government's spending on the world stage. So we're familiar with how good the French are with protesting, are we? Yeah. They don't fuck about. They actually don't. The French don't fuck about. They actually really don't fuck around. Do not. So we've got a couple of examples here. Gang. On TikTok. Do you remember... I think this was from 2023. Yeah.

Their government planned to raise the retirement age from 62 to 64, I think it was. Those two years would mark me. The bin men decided, well, go and fuck yourself. We are going to do whatever the hell we wanted. And they decided that they are no longer going to pick up the trash from the side of the street. I don't know if you saw images, but their man just...

- Bin men make the rules by the way. - Yeah. - The bin men, if they don't want to be your brethren, it's fucked. No offense, Paris stinks as it is. So, touche. - I didn't get that connotation when I went there, you know? Like I've heard people say Paris stinks, Paris is dirty, this, that and the other. But where I went in Paris and when I went wasn't dirty, didn't stink. - Fair. - It could have, I could have just been in luck. What? - Nothing man. - What? - Punching down over any.

- Where did you go in Paris? - Where did you go? The Louis Vuitton hotel? - Yeah. You like, so high up in the penthouse. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - The commoners were just too far down. - Sorry. - The commoners were too far down. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, sorry. Couldn't smell them from all the way up there, yeah? Fucking piece of shit. - On to your next video, bro. I'm not even gonna stay into this. On to your next video.

Earlier this year farmers went on a protest as well and they were just dropping doo-doo everywhere. Nah man! I remember this! Oh they're protesting for this! So yes, as we're familiar the French know how to protest. Being the president of France sounds like a stressful job. I don't think Macron's made it easier for himself. I don't know his policies like that but I heard he's not loved. I don't think he is. And neither is the president.

Yeah. Sorry, he's the president. Neither is the mayor. Oh. The mayor. There's a mayor as well. The mayor of Paris. Here she is here. So you've got Macron, the president, and you've got the mayor and Hidalgo. Okay. So... He's got a head on him. Pause. Pause. Um...

Let me see, let me see. Parisians have expressed their discontent for the event. As they say, much needed funds are being wasted on the games while neighborhoods in the city struggle with poverty. One of the biggest controversies in the French government's plan to host the events in the River Seine itself, despite the dirty water having been unswimmable for a century.

Authorities have allocated 1.2 billion to the state-backed plan to clean up the Seine ahead of the world's top athletes taking a dip. So all the swimming events from the Olympics are supposed to... It's been unswimmable for a century. It's been unswimmable for a century. And I'm going to use that river. France have put 1.2 billion to clean it.

taxpayers money of course to clean it so that the events swimming events from the olympics which will take place in paris will be held in the river seine who wants to swim in there well if it's clean enough yeah i mean i get it but yeah i can see what i've integrated the city with of course taxpayers money there's all sorts of reasons to be vexed by it um obviously when you want to you want to improve your city wherever you live the country you live there's never any money for it but i'm telling you now

Sorry to cut you off, Rem. I don't think the Olympics are gonna, I don't think we're gonna see 10 more Olympics, you know? Bro. Every single country that hosts the Olympics, the local folk are going mental about the spending. Every single time. I don't think it's just Olympics. I think it's any world sport period. Like, any form of World Cup, Euros, Olympics, anything that invites other nations into said country, there's always chaos.

Yeah. Always chaos, always controversy. The politics is shit. There's always someone that's losing out while other people are gaining. Always. It's definitely more Olympics though because there's a revamp of the whole fucking city. Yeah. And it's always, for example, sorry, again, like FIFA, for example, can host the Euros and pay for it through private equity for most of the time because FIFA makes bad

Bags. The Olympics is all government funded, isn't it? They don't make money from shit. I guess apart from like advertising and stuff, they make money from nothing. They all use the locals money for it. Taxpayers always pay for Olympics and it always goes through the ground. But we'll get onto that bit. All right, say less. Despite the water still being too dirty to swim in just weeks away from the event, President Emmanuel

Macron has vowed to swim in the river himself on June 23rd to prove the initiative's success. How did he get on? So, spoiler alert, they ended up postponing that. Of course. Of course, right. He took one look and said, are you stupid? Are you stupid? I'm not going to swim in that. When asked if he would swim in the Seine, Macron told reporters, you bet I will. In response to creative Frenchmen have...

Can you imagine? Okay. If you're the president, yeah? If you're the president...

and you've vowed, I'm swimming in this ting to prove to you, man, that it's swimmable or whatever. And you know your job is on the line. Like, you're like, this is serious. You better fight. You said you're gonna swim in it. You're cleaning that out. You better fucking swim in it. How many people shitting it will stop you before you're like, I'm not doing that? - Am I seeing them shitting it live before I get in? It's a valid question. - That is a valid question. - Yes.

whilst I'm breast stroking or forward stroking, I'm seeing... Nah, nah, nah. That's too much. You're on the side, on the bridge or whatever, about to dive, and you're seeing these toilets lined up, and then the first person sits down, stares you straight in your face and shits, and you see it go through the toilet and then just floats off downstream. How many of that before you're like, this is, enough is enough, I'm not getting in there? I think part of me would still probably, like, do, like, a 100-meter stretch. I'll do a clean 100 and get out. Regardless of...

Because I think by the time I've done my 100... Is all of them shitting in there? Yeah, I don't... Okay, I'm thinking best case scenario. I don't think there'll be 100 plus...

turtle heads ready to go. We'll get onto that. - Oh, they're gonna do. - 'Cause they're doing them. - Yeah, you think they haven't thought of that? - You think. - Oh, they're eating stuff in preparation. - You really are Macron. You thought you're smarter than the people. You think they didn't think of that? - Yeah fam, not only. - You really are Macron.

Insanity. Not only did they think of that, bro, I'll show you a website of the extent French people in general, not just Parisians obviously living in Paris, the extent they went to to make sure that their doodoo meets Macron at the River Seine at the time, which was supposed to be 12 p.m. on the 23rd of June. I'll show you. Oh, they're just backing Benihana. It's not what they're backing, it's...

the extent that they went to to make sure it, their dudu lands in the river at that point. I'll show you, I'll show you that. On socials, the hashtag, which translates to, What did you say, Remski? It translates to, All right, cool.

Began trending on the end of last month and has since gained traction across social media. The initial post on X has gained over half a million impressions and posts on TikTok spreading the word have garnered well over a million views. As news of the protest, memes such as AI generated pictures of toilets alongside the Sen and Macron standing on a bridge covered in feces sprung up across social media.

French X or Twitter. Upon the hashtag gaining traction, website dedicated to the campaign has cropped up with a handy tool to inform people exactly what time they should empty their bowels into the river based on their distance away from Paris. That's crazy. So other cities. Listen, other cities that obviously are interlinked through River Seine. Local to River Seine

I found this website or someone made this website, which is right here. I'll show you in a minute. But if you were, for example, to live in Auberginville, it's a city which is northwest of Paris. I did the Google Maps and it is 44 kilometers away from Paris. So I would go to this website. I would put in that I live 44 kilometers away from Paris and it would calculate that for my doo-doo,

to arrive at the river Saturday, June 22nd at 2:00 PM. - I would need to do do on Saturday, June 22nd at 2:00 PM for it to arrive when Macron was supposed to dive in the Seine on June 23rd at 12:00 PM. - I'd be in my office shaking knowing about this. - I changed my answer. If I'm Macron, I'm not doing it. - I knew you would change your answer.

this is health and safety now. I run this nation. So yes, there are X amount of people that don't fuck with me, but the people that do fuck with me, they needs man. So yeah, if I'm giving this to my right hand person and be like, listen,

This is what the streets are saying. I'm not diving in. I know I said what I said. - Yeah. - Handcuff me if you're gonna do something. - Yeah. - Handcuff me. - Bro, the way these politicians just don't do chit chat. You think I wouldn't find a microphone immediately once I find out about his website? I just be like, is this where you man at? - Yeah. - Every man trying to shit in the river when I said I'm gonna swim in there. - Yeah. - Swear. You know what, square up. - That's facts. - Put your hands up. - Yeah, you man don't love me. - Yeah, yeah, yeah.

- You know what? - You might want a revolution, but you're not getting it. - Make it 2.4 billion. Make it 2.4. - They will really see who's taking shit. - Yeah, that's disgraceful. The French don't play, bro. - The length they go to is honestly, the level of pettiness is just outstanding. - Jesus. - They reap their rewards of it though. - Oh yeah, they put their foot down and they catch the dub in the end, I believe. Far more than when the UK protests for sure.

- Yeah bro, these, the protesters in the UK, they get pushed over. - Yeah bro. - By a man trying to get to work. - Walk through. - Not even by the police. - Yeah not even by police bro. By Donnie's trying to get to work. - Get out the way. - Mums on the school run. They'll run them man over. - Get out the way. - You considerate bastard. Get out the way.

- Yes, tough out here. We don't get anything done, man. - Yeah. - We don't. - 'Cause you think of ourselves. - Yeah, literally. - If it's not affecting your own household in the UK,

Typically, it's not standing up. Yeah. Sad. It's facts, bro. Olympic open water and triathlon events are scheduled to take place in the river during the Games from the 26th of July to the 11th of August as the city receives a facelift to accommodate more than 10,500 athletes from around the world. Organizers have made clear plans

that there is no plan B if the water quality does not meet European safety standards during the two weeks of the Games. Swimming in the river has been barred on safety grounds since 1923, a year before the city last hosted the Olympic Games.

Jesus Christ! Yeah, I don't know what Macron was thinking. Yeah. Why was he suggesting this?

I don't know why he suggested it and I don't know why he vowed to dive in. Find a lake off ends like everyone else. He was trying to prove a point. Yeah, dumbass, bro. Find a lake off ends like everyone else, man. That's literally what has to happen. That's crazy talk. And now, even if they do clean it up,

If I'm an athlete, you think once I find out what his mum was shitting in there, I'm going in there. Even if they can test it and be like, yeah, it's fine. I ain't going in there. You're mad, bro. Yeah. Yeah. You're fucking mad. But anyway, that's, that's disgraceful. It really just goes on to, um, the Olympics. Just like we said earlier, it just costs money and you just don't make profits from it. It's taxpayers money. And there's a reason why these countries are just livid every time we host the Olympics. Um,

It costs so much to host that breaking even is next to impossible, this thread says. It's not just budgeting. In the modern era, it's become almost impossible to earn enough revenue to cover the extraordinary cost of hosting the games in the post-9-11 era. Security alone is enough to exclude the vast majority of cities. For the 2008 Beijing Olympics, the city spent $40 billion to earn $3.6 billion.

In 2012, London spent 18 billion to generate just 5.2 billion in revenue. And the host cities don't even get to keep all of what they earn. The IOC takes more than half of all of the TV revenue, which is the biggest piece of the pie. I don't think so, mate. What are you on about? The Olympics doesn't make anything. It's pointless. The Olympic Committee takes half of the revenue for the Olympics. Yeah.

When I spent, and how much they spending then? How much are they spending? Yeah. Because I just spent fucking 18 billion. And made five. I made five and you're like, yeah, run me half of that five.

How much did you spend? Yeah. That's crazy. Yeah. I don't think that they're just reaping peas from each city that hosts. And that's it. As the 2020 Tokyo Games spilled over into 2021 because of COVID, reports began to emerge about the dubious math behind the purported economic benefit of hosting the Olympics. Hosting committees routinely pitch thousands of jobs that games bring to town. But according to the CFR, those jobs are mostly temporary and often go to people who are already employed.

Tourism, the benefits of which are often overstated by Olympic committees, tend to decline in host cities in the years after the Games. Improvements to infrastructure are often negated by the high cost of maintaining that infrastructure in the years to come, particularly when it was purpose-built for an obscure sport and is rarely used afterwards. There is only one city to ever make a profit from the Olympics.

- Ooh. - In history. - Can we guess? - One city or one country? One city, did you say? - Yes, oh. - Yeah, same thing. - Same thing. Yeah, 'cause, yeah, one city. - Ever. - Ever. - LA? - Correct. - 1984. - It was LA? - Was it 1984?

Los Angeles. Come on, dog. Let's go. GGs. Los Angeles concluded the 1984 Summer Games with a $250 million operating surplus, according to the CFR, making the city of angels the only city in the world that has ever profited from hosting the Olympic Games in the modern era. I wonder what they did that made him money. What they did was they actually profited off the Olympics prior to that. So the Olympics prior to them basically tanked so badly that

that I believe the, from the research that I did, that IOC and the CFR overstated with them. So the negotiating between LA and the Olympic Committee, the Olympic Committee actually had to be a little bit more forthcoming with the peas, which is why LA benefited from it. Every other city-

post that seems to have basically forgotten that you still tank with the Olympics. They don't care. Clearly they don't care. And it's about clearly just being able to say, Oh, well we hosted the Olympics. Yeah. But also no one gives a fuck unless you're in a position of power, then you probably do. And even how, how does it even make a difference then? Because I feel like, I feel like in that moment, in that space of a month or two months, um,

It just bodes well for their politics, I guess. It just bodes well for, like, tourism. It bodes well for the president or whoever's in charge of position of power, if you've got a monarchy or whatever. I just feel like if I'm in charge of France right now and they ask me in four years' time, do I want to host the Olympics, I would still say yes. Do you see what I'm saying? I get what you're saying. I just feel like the main tourism thing is, like,

It sounds like from the sounds of it, like maybe we should just start choosing cities that aren't affluent. Like cities who have 25 billion that they can spend on the Olympics, don't give them it. Because like ultimately the point of it is that they bring... The point of the Olympics as to why it's worth spending all that money on is because it brings attention to the city that it's hosted in. London, Paris, Tokyo, haven't got enough attention as it is. The biggest, the most famous cities in the world. Send them to fucking...

I don't even know Luxembourg bro. - Fair. - And then so people can go there and just be like, "Oh right, it's kinda sick here." Yeah, it was worth the money because we're gonna reap the tourism benefits for years and years to come. - Yeah. - No one's coming to London because they're like, "I never even knew London was a thing until they had the Olympics here." You know what I'm about? - True. - They've been new about London. - True. - Yeah, that's a good point. - Brom on the other hand, Birmingham could do with an Olympic or two.

- The Commonwealth was there not too long ago, but it's not there. - It was. - Come on. Who's going there to watch that? - Commonwealth. - It even sounds like it. - Yeah, it's a trigger in even title. - It did. - Yes. - A trigger in his life.

Commonwealth is a triggering title. - It's a triggering title. - Yeah bro, the countries in that gets smaller and smaller every year. Give us us free. - We hosted man, we hosted. We held it down, we held it down. - All right, say less. But anyway, thank you for that bro. That was a very good one. - Very good research again man. - But anyway guys, that's the episode for today. Thank you so much for your attention and your time. Love of love.
