00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:01,630
Hello everyone. 
Welcome back to another episode 

2
00:00:01,640 --> 00:00:03,150
of Teach Seat Repeat. 
My name is Dylan. 

3
00:00:03,220 --> 00:00:06,010
And my name is Hayden. 
And it's warm, isn't it? 

4
00:00:06,020 --> 00:00:06,730
Yeah, Dylan. 
What? 

5
00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:08,320
OK, Right. 
For listeners out there, Dylan's

6
00:00:08,330 --> 00:00:09,470
been wearing a coat since he 
came in. 

7
00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:11,010
He's not taking it off now. 
Won't tell me why. 

8
00:00:11,020 --> 00:00:12,370
No. 
Why are you wearing a coat? 

9
00:00:12,380 --> 00:00:15,470
Because there's something under 
the coat which is of interest. 

10
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:17,830
Is it your belly? 
Is it your big Christmas? 

11
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:19,270
Belly. 
Belly. 

12
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:22,470
It's my coat. 
That's not why hide it away. 

13
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:24,860
No, it's fine. 
I embrace it, in fact, because. 

14
00:00:24,870 --> 00:00:26,510
Listeners, Dylan's taking his 
coat off right now. 

15
00:00:26,570 --> 00:00:29,400
Yep, I'm giving you a commentary
because we like to do things in 

16
00:00:29,410 --> 00:00:30,570
the podcast where you have to 
watch. 

17
00:00:31,810 --> 00:00:34,140
I've got a new job. 
Hang on a minute, a new 

18
00:00:34,150 --> 00:00:36,210
definition. 
This looks like the understudy. 

19
00:00:36,220 --> 00:00:38,460
Shirt, I got a little package 
delivered. 

20
00:00:38,470 --> 00:00:42,360
Give me a second. 
OK crikey, this is good. 

21
00:00:42,710 --> 00:00:44,720
Look at this. 
Live Christmas presents days 

22
00:00:44,730 --> 00:00:46,240
after Christmas. 
Not wrapped. 

23
00:00:46,810 --> 00:00:48,400
Yeah, all. 
Just like the Christmas present 

24
00:00:48,410 --> 00:00:50,660
for Lauren. 
Yeah, that's for you. 

25
00:00:50,670 --> 00:00:53,400
Ohh wow. 
I've got another T-shirt. 

26
00:00:53,410 --> 00:00:55,840
It looks like some more merch. 
It is more merch. 

27
00:00:55,850 --> 00:00:57,430
We've got some more match in the
way in our store. 

28
00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:00,940
It doesn't exist, and it's 
another definition word you 

29
00:01:00,950 --> 00:01:02,180
made-up. 
We put it up to the camera. 

30
00:01:02,190 --> 00:01:06,190
You didn't know the name for a 
collective noun of ours, so 

31
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:09,180
we've now got who it's a noun, a
number of more than three. 

32
00:01:09,190 --> 00:01:12,510
Now leave it to the front 
testing or travelling together 

33
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:15,570
hoot of ours because anything 
more than a who we'd be worried 

34
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:20,010
Anything more than three. 
That is a great, great gift. 

35
00:01:20,050 --> 00:01:21,900
You want my parents again? 
Is it your parents? 

36
00:01:21,910 --> 00:01:24,380
Yeah, yeah. 
I love this. 

37
00:01:24,390 --> 00:01:26,830
There you go. 
I love this book of ours. 

38
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:28,330
It is something to be worried 
about, isn't it? 

39
00:01:28,340 --> 00:01:30,420
It is more than three. 
And we had a lot of messages, by

40
00:01:30,430 --> 00:01:32,910
the way, when we played that 
game because the game, if anyone

41
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,940
didn't listen to that episode, 
was the question was simply how 

42
00:01:35,950 --> 00:01:37,800
many hours would you have to see
in a day before you thought 

43
00:01:37,810 --> 00:01:39,890
something was wrong? 
Very open. 

44
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,860
And we ended up saying it was 4.
Do you think more than three. 

45
00:01:42,930 --> 00:01:45,880
And we were trying to remember 
what a collective noun for a 

46
00:01:45,890 --> 00:01:48,680
group of hours was. 
Now Full disclosure, I did know.

47
00:01:48,730 --> 00:01:51,120
OK did you collect it? 
Yes, because it's very, very 

48
00:01:51,130 --> 00:01:53,200
strange term. 
Do you know what the actual? 

49
00:01:53,210 --> 00:01:56,370
Name, but the best bit is we've 
since been told and I forgot and

50
00:01:56,380 --> 00:01:58,620
I now think it's hot again, a 
hoot of ours. 

51
00:01:58,770 --> 00:02:01,280
No, a lot of messages going. 
I was shouting parliament, 

52
00:02:01,730 --> 00:02:05,760
murder grows, it's a parliament.
Of our Parliament. 

53
00:02:05,770 --> 00:02:08,960
Yes, and the joke was haha, I 
bet they'll do a better job than

54
00:02:08,970 --> 00:02:12,280
the real parliament. 
These words spell it. 

55
00:02:12,620 --> 00:02:18,740
PARLI AM ENT. 
Well done, government. 

56
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,860
How does that always gets me 
that the I in the middle. 

57
00:02:21,870 --> 00:02:23,900
But what's that ending? 
Parliament. 

58
00:02:23,950 --> 00:02:25,440
Parliament. 
Exactly right. 

59
00:02:25,510 --> 00:02:27,420
Well, thanks for that. 
Maybe we'll do a spelling bee in

60
00:02:27,430 --> 00:02:29,090
the future. 
Should we do a spelling bee too?

61
00:02:29,100 --> 00:02:32,100
I'm quite good at spelling. 
OK, so I thought you. 

62
00:02:32,110 --> 00:02:33,060
Want. 
Let's do that. 

63
00:02:33,070 --> 00:02:34,340
You want. 
That's one for the future, 

64
00:02:34,350 --> 00:02:36,240
Another game we can play. 
We've got lots of games coming 

65
00:02:36,250 --> 00:02:36,740
up. 
We do. 

66
00:02:36,750 --> 00:02:38,380
Guys, I hope you had an amazing 
Christmas. 

67
00:02:38,390 --> 00:02:40,760
And if you're listening to this,
which you obviously are because 

68
00:02:40,770 --> 00:02:43,740
you're hearing me say this 
sentence, then it is the new 

69
00:02:43,750 --> 00:02:45,900
year right now. 
This is being released on the 

70
00:02:45,910 --> 00:02:49,750
1st of January. 
Yeah, it is 2024 Hayden. 

71
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:51,980
Happy New Year. 
Happy New Year. 

72
00:02:51,990 --> 00:02:55,170
Happy. 
But we'll pretend we'll do that 

73
00:02:55,180 --> 00:02:55,790
in a few days. 
That's. 

74
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:58,040
Definitely. 
So very quickly then we've we've

75
00:02:58,050 --> 00:03:02,150
had that weird in between week, 
very odd week into the nether 

76
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,790
zone after Christmas before New 
Year where not much happens, but

77
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:08,230
you know what day of the week 
is, what's been going on. 

78
00:03:08,300 --> 00:03:11,050
Well, it's obviously it's been 
Christmas Day, so that's been 

79
00:03:11,060 --> 00:03:13,010
special because we've had, I 
mean you'll talk about it in a 

80
00:03:13,020 --> 00:03:15,490
minute, but we've had our our 
babies with us for the first 

81
00:03:15,500 --> 00:03:18,190
Christmas. 
Their first Christmas, I'd like 

82
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:21,590
to tell you, had a good day. 
I'd like to say to you all, we 

83
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,070
had a lovely day. 
Did you not? 

84
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:28,270
No. 
River cried. 

85
00:03:28,350 --> 00:03:30,530
Ohh yeah, all day. 
Ohh all day. 

86
00:03:30,540 --> 00:03:35,370
Ohh sort of, sort of sort of 
rode today a little bit, you 

87
00:03:35,380 --> 00:03:36,730
know. 
Should know better than five 

88
00:03:36,740 --> 00:03:38,390
weeks old. 
She should have known, really, 

89
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,250
to not cry. 
She just that's pretty selfish, 

90
00:03:40,260 --> 00:03:42,050
isn't it? 
I mean, I just think she. 

91
00:03:42,060 --> 00:03:43,490
Got. 
I did think that, Yeah. 

92
00:03:43,500 --> 00:03:44,270
Yeah. 
So it's alright. 

93
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:45,920
Because you put it down to sleep
quite often, didn't you? 

94
00:03:45,930 --> 00:03:47,250
Through the day to. 
Keep No, no. 

95
00:03:47,260 --> 00:03:48,410
She decided not to sleep for 
9:00. 

96
00:03:48,420 --> 00:03:51,160
Hours Ohh yeah. 
Yeah, that night we asked. 

97
00:03:51,170 --> 00:03:52,850
We had a breakdown in Lawrence. 
Started crying. 

98
00:03:52,890 --> 00:03:56,470
We. 
We and the Christmas Lauren was 

99
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,440
worried that she, like we'd, 
ruined everyone's Christmas. 

100
00:03:59,450 --> 00:04:01,600
All the baby that was Christ. 
Therefore we didn't get to play 

101
00:04:01,610 --> 00:04:03,280
any games. 
We didn't do anything fun. 

102
00:04:03,290 --> 00:04:05,360
No, no, don't worry. 
Just dealing with a screaming 

103
00:04:05,370 --> 00:04:07,560
baby. 
But in all seriousness, it was 

104
00:04:07,570 --> 00:04:09,820
fine. 
Once, once sounds fine. 

105
00:04:11,140 --> 00:04:13,540
Family no longer talks to us, 
It's fine. 

106
00:04:13,630 --> 00:04:15,690
But since then she's been great.
So Boxing Day was really good. 

107
00:04:15,700 --> 00:04:17,480
That was really nice. 
We saw family again on Boxing 

108
00:04:17,490 --> 00:04:19,660
Day and. 
Then she's a baby. 

109
00:04:19,670 --> 00:04:21,160
I know. 
No one cares. 

110
00:04:21,490 --> 00:04:24,840
She was overtired, clearly. 
Yeah, bless her. 

111
00:04:24,890 --> 00:04:26,820
I did have cuddles this morning 
when I came. 

112
00:04:27,530 --> 00:04:31,590
All this is so cute and I always
joke cuz she's what, six weeks 

113
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:35,230
younger than Rory and she's 
she's just so much smaller to me

114
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:36,720
in different by. 
Six weeks 6 stone. 

115
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,530
I older. 
I'm like, ohh, I'll have another

116
00:04:40,540 --> 00:04:43,470
one right now babe, are you 
getting there now already? 

117
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,210
Where you like ohh. 
I'll have another one. 

118
00:04:45,260 --> 00:04:48,050
I want one now. 
I think this, this zone with 

119
00:04:48,060 --> 00:04:50,660
Rory right now is like the 
ultimate 10 out of 10. 

120
00:04:50,670 --> 00:04:54,310
I'm having the time of my life. 
Like I love him so much where he

121
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,530
goes to sleep and I miss him and
I just watch like videos and 

122
00:04:57,540 --> 00:05:00,620
stuff of him because he's at the
point now where he sees you and 

123
00:05:00,630 --> 00:05:03,610
he's excited and smiling like 
you just pop your head into the 

124
00:05:03,620 --> 00:05:07,190
crib and he's like so overjoyed.
He's he's massive smile. 

125
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,300
His mouth goes wide and he 
starts moving around just to see

126
00:05:10,310 --> 00:05:11,410
you. 
Did you not even get annoyed 

127
00:05:11,420 --> 00:05:12,820
when he ruined Christmas from 
crying? 

128
00:05:14,310 --> 00:05:16,690
Ohh, that didn't happen. 
They didn't, man. 

129
00:05:16,700 --> 00:05:18,660
Ohh he didn't. 
Scream Dory did do all day 

130
00:05:18,670 --> 00:05:20,220
Christmas, which is really 
funny. 

131
00:05:20,420 --> 00:05:23,950
No, he's very irregularly. 
I don't ever want to listen to 

132
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,940
this, but he'll go like 2 days 
without pooping often. 

133
00:05:26,950 --> 00:05:29,050
Yeah, normally. 
But what did he do? 

134
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,570
Anyway, it was Christmas Day. 
My parents came over. 

135
00:05:32,580 --> 00:05:35,490
My family, whole family came 
over at half eight and he'd been

136
00:05:35,500 --> 00:05:37,250
up since 7:00 because just woke 
up. 

137
00:05:37,300 --> 00:05:40,590
So his wake window was well and 
truly over so that he they came 

138
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:41,870
round. 
Ohh really. 

139
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:45,140
Within 20 minutes he was asleep.
He fell asleep on me and our 

140
00:05:45,150 --> 00:05:46,720
inflight 2 1/2 hours. 
Ohh, no way. 

141
00:05:46,730 --> 00:05:48,880
So the whole time we were like 
doing presents and stuff. 

142
00:05:48,950 --> 00:05:52,750
Yeah, he was just eat and I. 
By the way, I talked about hate 

143
00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:56,180
and opening presents last time. 
I loved it this time because 

144
00:05:56,190 --> 00:05:58,720
they're all for Rory, so there 
was no pressure on me to pretend

145
00:05:58,730 --> 00:06:00,510
to like them. 
I just like toy after toy from 

146
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,470
Rory got so spoilt, but he 
didn't wake up for like 2 1/2 

147
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,580
hours and it was dead funny. 
You look in the room, everyone 

148
00:06:05,590 --> 00:06:07,540
just looking and kind of like 
waiting like. 

149
00:06:07,870 --> 00:06:10,180
OK, is he going to wake up? 
That's funny because the 

150
00:06:10,190 --> 00:06:11,990
opposite to us, everyone was 
like, oh, when she gonna sleep? 

151
00:06:12,750 --> 00:06:15,620
Plus she does she have a sleep? 
Actually, just no. 

152
00:06:15,630 --> 00:06:16,300
No. 
Reason. 

153
00:06:16,310 --> 00:06:18,580
For it just just wondering does 
she actually ever, Does she ever

154
00:06:18,590 --> 00:06:21,690
sleep? 
Ohh, I felt so bad. 

155
00:06:21,700 --> 00:06:23,350
We felt really like bad parents 
afterwards. 

156
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:25,280
Because no, she was just 
overtired. 

157
00:06:25,290 --> 00:06:28,400
And we were so like so wrapped 
up in the idea of we're gonna go

158
00:06:28,410 --> 00:06:29,620
here. 
Like we basically we split 

159
00:06:29,630 --> 00:06:31,090
Christmas between Lauren's mum 
and my mum. 

160
00:06:31,100 --> 00:06:32,840
That's what we did. 
Yeah, and Lauren's mum. 

161
00:06:33,690 --> 00:06:37,900
Yeah, your one is also called 
Lauren My 1:00. 

162
00:06:40,510 --> 00:06:42,850
Anyway, I don't why they listen.
It just sounds like so 

163
00:06:42,860 --> 00:06:45,020
possessive, isn't it? 
Yeah, yeah, we spent the day and

164
00:06:45,030 --> 00:06:47,150
we were so focused on like, no, 
we're gonna, we're spending like

165
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:48,330
5 hours here. 
We've got to have dinner and 

166
00:06:48,340 --> 00:06:51,290
we're gonna play some games. 
We we kinda just forgot off, you

167
00:06:51,300 --> 00:06:54,070
know, that she does actually 
just need to sleep. 

168
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:56,110
And because she wasn't sleeping 
well, she's just not. 

169
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:58,630
Doesn't want to sleep then. 
So no, it's been 6 hours now. 

170
00:06:58,740 --> 00:07:00,740
Needs to sleep. 
Needs to sleep. 

171
00:07:00,830 --> 00:07:03,350
Ends up taking upstairs at my 
mum's house and basically spent 

172
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,810
the majority of the time at my 
mum's house upstairs in a dark 

173
00:07:05,820 --> 00:07:08,560
room with the baby just trying 
to get to sleep. 

174
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:09,380
It's different. 
It's. 

175
00:07:09,510 --> 00:07:10,710
But you can't. 
I've. 

176
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:12,820
I've. 
I've found and I get annoyed now

177
00:07:12,870 --> 00:07:15,240
when people try to make exact 
plans. 

178
00:07:15,590 --> 00:07:17,700
Yeah, with anything involving 
Rory. 

179
00:07:17,930 --> 00:07:20,550
I'm just like, what? 
What do you mean we can't have 

180
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:23,240
exact plans? 
You could plan exactly what your

181
00:07:23,250 --> 00:07:24,890
Christmas dinner is going to be 
at this time. 

182
00:07:24,900 --> 00:07:27,040
We're gonna arrive at this time.
It's not gonna work. 

183
00:07:27,050 --> 00:07:28,740
We're gonna go for a nice walk 
on Christmas Eve. 

184
00:07:28,750 --> 00:07:30,880
Morning. 
No, no, I know. 

185
00:07:30,990 --> 00:07:34,040
So, like it already scuppered, 
our plans Didn't Christmas Eve 

186
00:07:34,050 --> 00:07:35,680
Morning? 
Hayden and I. 

187
00:07:35,690 --> 00:07:38,720
We spend Christmas together with
our partners and our children 

188
00:07:39,010 --> 00:07:41,440
and we normally go the walk. 
That was pretty baby. 

189
00:07:41,450 --> 00:07:43,370
We'd go for a walk and then end 
up at a pub. 

190
00:07:43,790 --> 00:07:47,430
Yeah, and this time Rory just it
got to we we wanted to start the

191
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,700
walk at half ten. 
No, we wanted to start the walk 

192
00:07:49,710 --> 00:07:53,940
at 10 and it got to like 9:50. 
We're about to leave and Rory 

193
00:07:53,950 --> 00:07:55,050
went. 
Do you know what? 

194
00:07:55,670 --> 00:07:58,940
I'm starving. 
Been crying. 

195
00:07:59,010 --> 00:08:00,360
Yeah, he fed for like half an 
hour. 

196
00:08:00,370 --> 00:08:02,230
He was like, OK, well, we can't 
go on the walk anymore, So we 

197
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:03,420
went straight to the pub 
instead. 

198
00:08:03,490 --> 00:08:06,910
Yep, fine, absolutely fine. 
Because it's a baby. 

199
00:08:06,970 --> 00:08:09,460
Like, he, he doesn't know 
concept that we have a plan. 

200
00:08:09,470 --> 00:08:11,840
He doesn't know what time it is.
And that, I think, is why I 

201
00:08:11,850 --> 00:08:14,580
found it so hard going back to 
work because in this two weeks 

202
00:08:14,590 --> 00:08:16,820
it's been absolutely fine 
because I'm very, very 

203
00:08:16,830 --> 00:08:20,840
comfortable just saying, no, 
sorry, Rory's doing this, so 

204
00:08:20,850 --> 00:08:23,160
does have to wait. 
Whereas with work, there's no 

205
00:08:23,170 --> 00:08:24,840
waiting. 
There's there's no, there's no, 

206
00:08:24,850 --> 00:08:27,140
like, oh, Rory's just fussing, 
right. 

207
00:08:27,150 --> 00:08:28,560
No, you've got to get in because
your kids are. 

208
00:08:28,780 --> 00:08:30,010
That's why I really struggle. 
With. 

209
00:08:30,020 --> 00:08:32,929
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 
I think most, in fact, everyone 

210
00:08:32,940 --> 00:08:34,610
so far has been incredibly 
understanding. 

211
00:08:34,620 --> 00:08:35,890
Yeah, of course that no one's 
been like. 

212
00:08:35,900 --> 00:08:37,330
Ohh yeah but. 
And if they're not, and if 

213
00:08:37,340 --> 00:08:39,610
they're not, then do you really 
want them to be part of your 

214
00:08:39,620 --> 00:08:41,059
kids? 
Yeah, it's like ohh, we're not 

215
00:08:41,070 --> 00:08:42,190
friends anymore. 
Yeah. 

216
00:08:43,419 --> 00:08:45,030
Anyway, so I did get a good 
present. 

217
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:46,450
OK, one of the kids actually at 
school. 

218
00:08:46,460 --> 00:08:48,580
Dad jokes book. 
Now that my dad obviously I can 

219
00:08:48,590 --> 00:08:53,130
tell these jokes were superb. 
Before that I'm going to pick 

220
00:08:53,140 --> 00:08:54,190
some random ones out this book 
for you. 

221
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,180
OK, first one. 
Really, Kid dad? 

222
00:08:56,190 --> 00:08:58,980
What's your best dad joke? 
You. 

223
00:09:00,090 --> 00:09:02,020
That's not a joke. 
That's just. 

224
00:09:02,030 --> 00:09:04,940
Trauma and being a bit mean? 
Pick another one for you. 

225
00:09:05,090 --> 00:09:07,300
That's just someone who's got a 
kid being mean. 

226
00:09:09,180 --> 00:09:12,630
Isn't there you? 
I'm terrified of lifts. 

227
00:09:12,830 --> 00:09:14,690
I'm going to start taking steps 
to avoid them. 

228
00:09:14,740 --> 00:09:18,580
OK, that was about, yeah, I 
slept last. 

229
00:09:18,590 --> 00:09:21,580
I slept like a log last night. 
I woke up in the fireplace. 

230
00:09:22,970 --> 00:09:25,470
Ohh they're very good dad jokes 
though. 

231
00:09:26,270 --> 00:09:28,230
Here we go, This long one Here, 
Dad. 

232
00:09:29,100 --> 00:09:32,830
What's the difference between a 
piano, a tuner and a pot of 

233
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:34,070
glue? 
You're the kid. 

234
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,000
You play that role. 
I don't know. 

235
00:09:37,620 --> 00:09:40,790
You can tune up piano, but you 
can't piano tuner. 

236
00:09:41,940 --> 00:09:44,980
What about the glue? 
I knew you'd get stuck there. 

237
00:09:47,090 --> 00:09:48,380
I'll leave you. 
With that. 

238
00:09:48,510 --> 00:09:51,700
And that, my friends, is why 
this podcast has picked up so 

239
00:09:51,710 --> 00:09:53,040
many followers in the last 
month. 

240
00:09:53,750 --> 00:09:56,010
Because of jokes like that. 
Guys, if you're new, you're 

241
00:09:56,020 --> 00:09:57,270
listening. 
Thank you so much. 

242
00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:58,400
Hang on. 
They're too busy laughing. 

243
00:09:58,410 --> 00:09:59,400
Give me a second. 
Sorry. 

244
00:09:59,550 --> 00:10:00,310
One minute. 
One second. 

245
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:01,930
But now you can talk. 
OK. 

246
00:10:01,940 --> 00:10:03,310
Thank you, guys. 
You're right. 

247
00:10:03,590 --> 00:10:05,360
You gotta stitch. 
Yeah. 

248
00:10:05,410 --> 00:10:06,470
Bloody funny. 
When it. 

249
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:09,420
That's what you can expect. 
A teacher podcast sponsored by 

250
00:10:09,430 --> 00:10:12,560
dad jokes. 
So yeah, I had a really funny 

251
00:10:12,570 --> 00:10:17,200
story, really funny story. 
It was like you're like this 

252
00:10:17,210 --> 00:10:20,670
because it's self deprecating on
me and it's at the expense of me

253
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:22,950
and it was really pure and like 
honest. 

254
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,150
It's like when your mum thinks 
I'm actually genuinely a bit 

255
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,670
special like like he's like ohh 
was dinner. 

256
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:34,410
Dinner. 
Like I'm normal I'm OK wait we 

257
00:10:34,420 --> 00:10:38,200
were sad Christmas dinner. 
So Rory just went down in his 

258
00:10:38,630 --> 00:10:41,080
little Moses basket thing. 
We brought round to Laurens 

259
00:10:41,090 --> 00:10:43,660
parents and he's like in the 
hallway just behind me. 

260
00:10:43,710 --> 00:10:45,770
So the doors right there at the 
dining room, he's just there. 

261
00:10:45,780 --> 00:10:47,720
I can see and hear him he's 
fine. 

262
00:10:47,830 --> 00:10:52,100
So there's six of us sat at the 
table and this crackers and 

263
00:10:52,110 --> 00:10:53,800
someone says, oh she did a 
crackers. 

264
00:10:53,810 --> 00:10:56,720
Then altogether she did it 
before we have our dinner and 

265
00:10:56,730 --> 00:10:58,900
Lauren just goes, ohh yeah, but 
can we do them all at once? 

266
00:10:58,910 --> 00:11:00,380
Because he he doesn't really 
like them. 

267
00:11:00,390 --> 00:11:01,910
He might start with him. 
Right. 

268
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:05,030
Because he does. 
Like Rory hates them anyway. 

269
00:11:05,100 --> 00:11:06,670
Ohh, we did all the crackers at 
once. 

270
00:11:06,680 --> 00:11:09,110
Like honestly, after dinner, 
like an hour and a half later, 

271
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:10,980
Lawrence granddad turns went. 
So what is it about the 

272
00:11:10,990 --> 00:11:13,930
crackers? 
You don't like me? 

273
00:11:17,490 --> 00:11:20,860
You bought Lauren, got everyone 
to the cracker side because I 

274
00:11:20,870 --> 00:11:23,200
got started. 
So what is it? 

275
00:11:23,250 --> 00:11:25,520
Is it the loud noise or is it? 
And I was like, what? 

276
00:11:27,420 --> 00:11:31,300
Ferrari love, but he even just 
humoured that thinking. 

277
00:11:31,310 --> 00:11:35,310
Ohh, is actually is. 
He really, seriously thought it 

278
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,210
was me he didn't like. 
Us So funny. 

279
00:11:37,300 --> 00:11:40,830
I was just like, ohh, it was my 
ten week old sad. 

280
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:42,730
Ohh, you're revealing your 
preconceptions about their. 

281
00:11:42,740 --> 00:11:47,730
Grandad. 
That's so good. 

282
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:50,130
The most pure, Like, really 
funny. 

283
00:11:50,140 --> 00:11:52,570
I was like, OK, alright, I told 
Lauren after. 

284
00:11:52,580 --> 00:11:54,090
In the corridor. 
She's pissing herself. 

285
00:11:54,100 --> 00:11:56,130
So funny. 
I'm real. 

286
00:11:56,180 --> 00:11:57,860
I'm real. 
Have you got another story about

287
00:11:57,870 --> 00:11:59,950
your grandparents regarding 
Rory? 

288
00:12:01,970 --> 00:12:03,710
Right. 
So I was starting to tell Hayden

289
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:05,340
the story out. 
It was like, you need to tell us

290
00:12:05,350 --> 00:12:07,030
the podcast. 
We're gonna have a bit of a 

291
00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:10,000
theme later on. 
Not to give anything away, but 

292
00:12:10,490 --> 00:12:12,810
will we have a bit about the 
government when we're looking 

293
00:12:12,820 --> 00:12:14,830
and reflecting on the year? 
And we're gonna tell there's 

294
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:18,350
been a leak, right? 
You got you got a lesson in 

295
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:21,390
later because we've actually got
some pretty cool breaking news, 

296
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:23,590
juicy breaking news. 
There's been a government leak 

297
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:25,290
and we have probably the only 
people. 

298
00:12:25,300 --> 00:12:26,760
I think it's. 
Exclusive, exclusive. 

299
00:12:26,770 --> 00:12:28,940
We've got our hands on it. 
We're going to reveal that 

300
00:12:28,950 --> 00:12:31,510
government leak to you and it is
related to education, so. 

301
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,800
Listen, guys. 
But anyway, so we obviously 

302
00:12:34,810 --> 00:12:38,590
called our son Rory, but we 
didn't call him Rory for about. 

303
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:40,830
I think it was nine days after 
he was born, because we were 

304
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:44,210
torn between two names. 
We hoped when he came out that 

305
00:12:44,220 --> 00:12:46,580
we'd be like, oh, it's a blank. 
And it wasn't. 

306
00:12:46,590 --> 00:12:48,840
It was just like, OK, let's just
survive for a few weeks. 

307
00:12:48,850 --> 00:12:50,840
Scrapped a blank. 
Yeah, blank. 

308
00:12:50,850 --> 00:12:54,550
Didn't like a blank as a name. 
Anyway, so we ended up deciding 

309
00:12:54,560 --> 00:12:58,040
to call him Rory. 
Lovely, my nan, who's in a care 

310
00:12:58,050 --> 00:13:00,880
home currently. 
My parents went to visit her and

311
00:13:00,890 --> 00:13:02,820
had the news that it was Rory 
and she loves looking at 

312
00:13:02,830 --> 00:13:04,390
pictures of him. 
They're cute because she can be 

313
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:06,890
a bit blank sometimes and a bit 
vacant. 

314
00:13:06,950 --> 00:13:09,510
But see picture of the baby, she
go, oh, look at the baby, it's 

315
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:11,770
very cute. 
So my parents are showing the 

316
00:13:11,780 --> 00:13:14,900
pictures of Rory and they went, 
he's called Rory, Mum, he's 

317
00:13:14,910 --> 00:13:19,440
called Rory. 
And she went, oh, Tory, don't 

318
00:13:19,450 --> 00:13:22,930
call him that. 
I can't believe you picked the 

319
00:13:22,940 --> 00:13:23,980
name, so. 
Closely. 

320
00:13:23,990 --> 00:13:26,290
I know they're gonna cause only 
then was I like, what have I 

321
00:13:26,300 --> 00:13:27,610
done? 
Yeah, it's Rory. 

322
00:13:27,620 --> 00:13:29,330
The Tory. 
No, never say that. 

323
00:13:29,340 --> 00:13:32,090
Please. 
So yeah, Rory's very close to 

324
00:13:32,100 --> 00:13:35,640
Tory. 
Ohh, little Tory. 

325
00:13:35,730 --> 00:13:37,660
No, he's not. 
He is though, isn't he? 

326
00:13:37,670 --> 00:13:39,250
Ohh no. 
He is a little Tory. 

327
00:13:39,260 --> 00:13:41,080
He isn't. 
He is a little Rory the. 

328
00:13:41,090 --> 00:13:42,780
Tory Maybe This is why they tell
the story. 

329
00:13:42,790 --> 00:13:44,220
Yeah, because this is what 
happened. 

330
00:13:44,230 --> 00:13:45,640
Rory, the Tories got another 
tee. 

331
00:13:45,650 --> 00:13:47,060
Shirt. 
Yeah, it's the story. 

332
00:13:47,070 --> 00:13:49,900
Here's the story of Rory the 
Tory. 

333
00:13:49,970 --> 00:13:52,120
Hey, he's not a Tory. 
He's not a Tory much. 

334
00:13:52,130 --> 00:13:53,370
He's not anything. 
He's a baby. 

335
00:13:53,410 --> 00:13:56,480
He exactly, exactly can't put 
anything onto your child. 

336
00:13:56,790 --> 00:14:00,600
That's called projection, that 
the word projectile vomiting 

337
00:14:01,470 --> 00:14:03,200
children. 
Are you gonna just think about 

338
00:14:03,210 --> 00:14:05,300
that now? 
This is gonna be a hard one. 

339
00:14:05,310 --> 00:14:07,410
I think as a as a control freak 
that I. 

340
00:14:07,420 --> 00:14:08,540
Am you are a control? 
Freak. 

341
00:14:08,550 --> 00:14:10,410
I'm very I'm. 
I'm all for no. 

342
00:14:10,420 --> 00:14:11,660
Kids need to make up their own 
minds. 

343
00:14:11,670 --> 00:14:13,760
I hate, I hate. 
I actually hate it when I see 

344
00:14:13,770 --> 00:14:16,690
like 4 year olds. 5 year olds. 
So like they're they're they're 

345
00:14:16,700 --> 00:14:19,050
Christian. 
Are they they They can't even 

346
00:14:19,060 --> 00:14:20,790
poo with themselves yet. 
They're not. 

347
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:22,570
Chris. 
They haven't had a deep like 

348
00:14:22,580 --> 00:14:25,710
philosophical thought train 
about like where they think 

349
00:14:25,820 --> 00:14:27,850
humanity comes with this. 
They're not. 

350
00:14:27,900 --> 00:14:29,450
You're just saying that about 
them. 

351
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:33,620
But like if your son gets to I 
don't know nine years old and 

352
00:14:33,630 --> 00:14:35,630
they start doing like because 
sometimes a bit of politics at 

353
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:37,640
school they'll be like they'll 
get like a visitor in once a 

354
00:14:37,650 --> 00:14:40,490
year to talk about politics And 
and he's comes home he's like 

355
00:14:40,500 --> 00:14:44,040
yeah I think, I think I really 
I'm I'm a Tory. 

356
00:14:44,090 --> 00:14:46,210
Yeah, yeah, I think, what would 
you do? 

357
00:14:46,220 --> 00:14:47,920
I think you let him crack on 
with it, don't you? 

358
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:51,300
Yeah, especially when they're 
young, cuz OK, realistically 

359
00:14:51,450 --> 00:14:53,500
I've got a good nine years to 
convince him otherwise before we

360
00:14:53,510 --> 00:14:55,530
can. 
Vote, Yeah, that's what I really

361
00:14:55,540 --> 00:14:58,640
like. 
You know, I wouldn't. 

362
00:14:58,870 --> 00:15:02,340
I think you'd have to model that
you're your own person as well. 

363
00:15:02,390 --> 00:15:03,320
Hmm. 
So I would. 

364
00:15:03,330 --> 00:15:06,000
I would say that I disagree. 
With you, Would you sort of spit

365
00:15:06,010 --> 00:15:07,730
at him, if you Tory scum? 
Is that what? 

366
00:15:07,740 --> 00:15:09,410
You do? 
No, you're because you're so 

367
00:15:09,420 --> 00:15:11,300
horrible, Jokes aside, are very 
against that. 

368
00:15:11,350 --> 00:15:14,190
I get very riled up about 
politics and stuff, and I might 

369
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:17,100
not understand why people think 
certain things, but I think 

370
00:15:17,110 --> 00:15:21,140
there's a really fine balance in
line with you, OK? 

371
00:15:22,660 --> 00:15:26,560
Just tried to casually drink a 
Sprite was just soaking spilt it

372
00:15:26,570 --> 00:15:29,670
all over the microphone and. 
Myself sponsored by Sprite? 

373
00:15:30,340 --> 00:15:34,350
No, I think there's a really 
fine line with children with 

374
00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:38,330
anything like that. 
Because their children, you 

375
00:15:38,340 --> 00:15:41,270
can't pretend that it's a fully 
informed decision. 

376
00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:44,290
No, ever. 
Because the same thing you just,

377
00:15:44,300 --> 00:15:47,150
it's sort of religion. 
Your child will say they're that

378
00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:49,070
if you bring them up saying that
they are that. 

379
00:15:49,340 --> 00:15:51,680
In the same way, if you bring up
your child to say that, yeah, 

380
00:15:51,690 --> 00:15:54,630
we're Turkish, it doesn't matter
if they're actually Turkish or 

381
00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:56,230
not. 
They'll go, yeah, Turkish, yeah,

382
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:57,600
yeah. 
Because that's they'll just 

383
00:15:57,610 --> 00:15:59,880
listen to you and they laugh for
me and for us, Moses and stuff 

384
00:15:59,890 --> 00:16:02,230
like that. 
I think you got like a duty of 

385
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,730
care and stuff. 
I think there comes a line when 

386
00:16:04,740 --> 00:16:08,080
it's certain things, you know, 
for example, you had incidents 

387
00:16:08,090 --> 00:16:10,380
of children, same racist things 
and stuff. 

388
00:16:10,430 --> 00:16:12,060
Hmm. 
You wouldn't at that point go 

389
00:16:12,070 --> 00:16:14,720
ohh, well, you know, each their 
own whatever individual thoughts

390
00:16:14,730 --> 00:16:16,360
and opinions. 
Yeah, you have to step in at 

391
00:16:16,370 --> 00:16:19,200
that point and be like that's 
unacceptable in this society and

392
00:16:19,210 --> 00:16:22,180
stuff like that. 
If it's a political party or 

393
00:16:22,190 --> 00:16:25,590
like an ideology, it's a really 
tricky line, I think. 

394
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,130
Is within the boundaries of our 
culture. 

395
00:16:27,140 --> 00:16:29,690
Isn't it isn't exactly that. 
It's like, well, if they were an

396
00:16:29,700 --> 00:16:31,630
adult and said these things you 
just put up with. 

397
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:33,820
It yeah, they wouldn't, they 
wouldn't go to prison for hate 

398
00:16:33,830 --> 00:16:35,660
speech or something. 
Exactly how you allowed to have 

399
00:16:35,670 --> 00:16:36,020
that? 
Opinion. 

400
00:16:36,030 --> 00:16:37,730
Yeah, exactly that. 
And I think there's a really, 

401
00:16:37,740 --> 00:16:39,670
really hard there's just a fine 
line there. 

402
00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:41,370
And I don't know, it's gonna be 
one of things to kind of work 

403
00:16:41,380 --> 00:16:44,500
out as we go. 
But I think with children 

404
00:16:44,510 --> 00:16:46,930
there's a big emphasis on us to 
keep them safe. 

405
00:16:46,940 --> 00:16:49,530
I always say this. 
The only thing I think of as a 

406
00:16:49,540 --> 00:16:52,420
professional, I'm stepping out 
with dad role now because I 

407
00:16:52,430 --> 00:16:55,610
think are two different things. 
As a teacher, my role is to keep

408
00:16:55,620 --> 00:16:57,810
them safe. 
So whatever they say, my only 

409
00:16:57,820 --> 00:16:59,970
thought is what's going to keep 
them as safest here. 

410
00:17:00,340 --> 00:17:04,109
If they're saying racist things,
actually keeping our children 

411
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:06,849
safe and themselves safe would 
be to step in and intervene. 

412
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:11,810
If they're saying that they like
Boris Johnson, OK, that's not. 

413
00:17:11,819 --> 00:17:14,349
Just any more of my time. 
Just downloaded WhatsApp. 

414
00:17:16,349 --> 00:17:19,119
Ohh yeah yeah. 
Although the the service must 

415
00:17:19,130 --> 00:17:22,190
have the glitch in the service 
of the backing up the service 

416
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:26,690
would they went down well yeah 
idiot. 

417
00:17:26,730 --> 00:17:28,970
By that point I was like, OK, 
because I actually had a kid. 

418
00:17:28,980 --> 00:17:31,120
I I don't like Boris Johnson. 
I didn't vote for his 

419
00:17:31,130 --> 00:17:33,190
government. 
I had a kid in my Class A couple

420
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:36,630
of years ago start talking about
how great Boris Johnson was a 

421
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,160
Prime Minister. 
Absolutely not my job at that 

422
00:17:39,170 --> 00:17:42,030
point to like argue back. 
No, completely mad. 

423
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:44,430
I think any teacher who does 
that is stepping over the line. 

424
00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:48,010
Yeah, I really do like and I am 
probably the most staunch like 

425
00:17:48,020 --> 00:17:51,150
anti Tory that there is. 
But it's not my job in that 

426
00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:54,910
moment, in that in that moment, 
it is not my job to to argue 

427
00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,110
whether or not Boris Johnson was
good Prime Minister or not. 

428
00:17:57,380 --> 00:17:59,770
However, with my child, I think 
I'd sit and talk. 

429
00:17:59,780 --> 00:18:01,470
To them about debate. 
Yeah, and I'd be like, OK, well,

430
00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:04,260
I think this because of that. 
So why is it you actually do, 

431
00:18:04,270 --> 00:18:06,140
what are the reasons you think 
is a good Prime Minister? 

432
00:18:06,150 --> 00:18:07,640
Yeah. 
And then I'm like, OK, that's a 

433
00:18:07,650 --> 00:18:09,060
good point. 
I disagree though because I 

434
00:18:09,070 --> 00:18:12,410
think this you gotta know though
as the parent of your child, 

435
00:18:12,420 --> 00:18:15,330
you're opinions probably 
everything to them and you are 

436
00:18:15,340 --> 00:18:17,840
de facto moulding them by 
arguing against them whether 

437
00:18:17,850 --> 00:18:20,690
you're right or wrong. 
Because let's say the other way 

438
00:18:20,700 --> 00:18:22,630
round. 
If a child supported something I

439
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:26,350
liked and then someone else, 
like their mum for example, 

440
00:18:26,580 --> 00:18:28,140
started saying ohh, what about 
the other way? 

441
00:18:28,150 --> 00:18:30,460
Because I think the opposite. 
The kid will naturally be like 

442
00:18:30,470 --> 00:18:31,720
ohh. 
My mum does know stuff. 

443
00:18:31,730 --> 00:18:33,500
She did tell me not to touch 
that fire and that was really 

444
00:18:33,510 --> 00:18:34,640
hot. 
Yeah, I. 

445
00:18:34,650 --> 00:18:38,590
Didn't tell you How is your 
burn? 

446
00:18:40,130 --> 00:18:43,040
Is healing anyone watching 
Foresee the remnants? 

447
00:18:43,050 --> 00:18:45,580
It's a bit pink, but yeah, just 
moisturising. 

448
00:18:46,890 --> 00:18:49,120
Is that why you don't listen to 
your mum's advice? 

449
00:18:49,130 --> 00:18:50,630
Yeah, exactly, isn't it? 
Yeah, yeah, she's. 

450
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:52,260
Like, you know, what do you 
touch that far? 

451
00:18:52,270 --> 00:18:53,600
OK. 
Yeah. 

452
00:18:54,630 --> 00:18:56,310
Hard way, didn't I? 
Yeah, I don't know. 

453
00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:59,000
Overall, I think you've got to 
be really careful and I think 

454
00:18:59,010 --> 00:19:00,970
the role of a parent is very 
different to the role of a 

455
00:19:00,980 --> 00:19:01,900
teacher. 
Fantastic. 

456
00:19:01,910 --> 00:19:05,070
Which I never asked, right. 
Let's move on. 

457
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:07,370
I didn't think we have a deep 
with the intros it. 

458
00:19:07,420 --> 00:19:09,350
Should we? 
Should we play the Have You Got 

459
00:19:09,360 --> 00:19:12,260
Little Story, uncle? 
Yeah. 

460
00:19:12,270 --> 00:19:12,850
Well, yeah. 
Yeah. 

461
00:19:12,860 --> 00:19:16,170
Quick story. 
OK, so hands on Boxing Day. 

462
00:19:16,180 --> 00:19:18,190
Yeah. 
And no way. 

463
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:19,810
Yeah, that's it. 
That's the story. 

464
00:19:19,820 --> 00:19:23,630
Anyway, you Rascal. 
And also my family were there. 

465
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:25,860
It's like the classic every year
it's when all the family gets 

466
00:19:25,870 --> 00:19:27,910
together. 
We go on Boxing Day, my cousins,

467
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:29,530
uncles and aunts and. 
That lot, Cousins. 

468
00:19:29,540 --> 00:19:32,510
Top #1 if I'd say you know. 
You're in your five. 

469
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:33,630
Yeah. 
And. 

470
00:19:33,970 --> 00:19:35,890
And so I was thinking it would 
be nice because a lot of people 

471
00:19:35,900 --> 00:19:37,750
get to meet the baby. 
And she wasn't screaming. 

472
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:40,590
I was like, yes, this result. 
And I've been there for a couple

473
00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:43,330
of hours and the only person 
that hadn't really sort of gone 

474
00:19:43,340 --> 00:19:46,260
just even have a look because 
she was just kind of just tucked

475
00:19:46,270 --> 00:19:49,050
away just out out in in the next
room to us by the way we were 

476
00:19:49,060 --> 00:19:52,150
saying was my uncle. 
I was thinking ohh, you probably

477
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:53,550
won't have the latest being 
polite. 

478
00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:55,140
And then we were about to go and
had been hours. 

479
00:19:55,150 --> 00:19:58,000
At this point he's not even like
looked at it yet everyone else 

480
00:19:58,010 --> 00:20:00,620
had a cuddle. 
And I just I just I just I just 

481
00:20:00,630 --> 00:20:03,110
ask him just in case you know 
uncle just back. 

482
00:20:03,120 --> 00:20:04,730
We're going to go in a SEC. 
Did you want to have a quick? 

483
00:20:05,460 --> 00:20:10,010
Baby cuddle have a quick little 
baby went Nah Nah, you're right.

484
00:20:11,350 --> 00:20:15,080
I just was like, ohh, OK, see 
you later then. 

485
00:20:15,790 --> 00:20:17,800
OK. 
I'll walk around you somehow so 

486
00:20:17,810 --> 00:20:20,520
you don't have to look. 
I was like, alright. 

487
00:20:20,530 --> 00:20:23,480
OK, that's the end of that then.
Well, not for everyone mate. 

488
00:20:23,490 --> 00:20:25,210
Yeah, not for everyone. 
Yeah, but she won't. 

489
00:20:25,220 --> 00:20:26,920
He won't be in a car, do we? 
Yeah, No. 

490
00:20:27,770 --> 00:20:29,450
He's off the Christmas. 
He's off the Christmas card 

491
00:20:29,460 --> 00:20:30,370
list. 
I didn't write a single 

492
00:20:30,380 --> 00:20:32,180
Christmas card was gonna. 
Say we didn't send it. 

493
00:20:32,190 --> 00:20:32,920
I didn't. 
I didn't. 

494
00:20:32,930 --> 00:20:34,080
Write. 
Not even one. 

495
00:20:34,090 --> 00:20:35,680
Yeah, I didn't. 
I tell you what I didn't. 

496
00:20:35,690 --> 00:20:38,930
This is terrible. 
I didn't wrap a single present. 

497
00:20:40,620 --> 00:20:42,720
Your Yes, actually poor. 
I didn't. 

498
00:20:42,730 --> 00:20:44,370
That's toxic masculinity. 
Is it? 

499
00:20:44,380 --> 00:20:46,140
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 
Just letting Lauren do 

500
00:20:46,150 --> 00:20:47,190
everything, including her own 
game. 

501
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:48,710
I've got a baby. 
Lauren's got a. 

502
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:50,590
Baby Yeah, she didn't. 
Wrap her own gifts. 

503
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:52,410
She just didn't get wrapped 
gifts right? 

504
00:20:52,420 --> 00:20:54,130
So she. 
Wrapped everyone else's gifts 

505
00:20:54,420 --> 00:20:56,450
and then obviously didn't wrap 
around because you couldn't 

506
00:20:56,460 --> 00:20:58,160
because you had the baby. 
Yeah, I've. 

507
00:20:58,170 --> 00:20:59,330
Had a baby? 
You're toxic. 

508
00:20:59,940 --> 00:21:02,550
Yeah, that's toxic. 
A new look You didn't. 

509
00:21:02,660 --> 00:21:04,730
Mate, that's not good if I told.
Her. 

510
00:21:04,740 --> 00:21:06,820
I forgot to rap. 
And then you forget you. 

511
00:21:06,830 --> 00:21:08,810
Didn't forget you. 
Didn't forget it. 

512
00:21:08,820 --> 00:21:10,790
No, you chose not to because 
there was a moment where the 

513
00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:13,120
gift was in your hand. 
Did you went? 

514
00:21:13,850 --> 00:21:16,810
Mad. 
It sat down there and then 

515
00:21:16,820 --> 00:21:18,720
Christmas came around. 
We're busy alright, baby. 

516
00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:22,400
So are you saying that? 
I wrapped more gifts for your 

517
00:21:22,410 --> 00:21:24,180
child than you grappled for your
child. 

518
00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:27,260
That's right, you got more 
gifts. 

519
00:21:27,270 --> 00:21:30,180
For my children, I got. 
For my child, you're on, your 

520
00:21:30,190 --> 00:21:31,210
on. 
Your own part of the uncle 

521
00:21:31,220 --> 00:21:32,320
there. 
Do you wanna see the uncle? 

522
00:21:32,330 --> 00:21:34,950
You don't want to see her. 
But my uncle doesn't. 

523
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:36,630
Want to see them? 
But you know. 

524
00:21:38,350 --> 00:21:40,380
No, she's six weeks old, mate. 
She is. 

525
00:21:40,390 --> 00:21:43,300
She's six weeks old. 
Yeah, You know what Lauren? 

526
00:21:45,990 --> 00:21:50,000
Yeah, I like my favourite bit 
was when you came round and told

527
00:21:50,010 --> 00:21:52,060
us about a gift that Rory was 
getting. 

528
00:21:52,070 --> 00:21:56,000
Yeah, and then I just, Lauren 
forgot and then she went and 

529
00:21:56,010 --> 00:21:59,380
bought that exact thing and and 
she sent me to Smith to pick it 

530
00:21:59,390 --> 00:22:00,640
up. 
So I went, I went and drove to 

531
00:22:00,650 --> 00:22:02,820
Smiths and got picked up this 
click and collect order. 

532
00:22:02,870 --> 00:22:06,720
I looked at it. 
I was like, I'm pretty sure the 

533
00:22:06,730 --> 00:22:09,870
textiles, like, didn't Dylan. 
Isn't this the specifically the 

534
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,180
one thing that Dylan already 
said that they've got for Rory? 

535
00:22:13,140 --> 00:22:15,110
And she was. 
Like ohh yeah. 

536
00:22:15,180 --> 00:22:17,650
No, I tell you what's different 
because what it is is a kick and

537
00:22:17,660 --> 00:22:20,420
play like piano. 
We he's got, he's got one of the

538
00:22:20,430 --> 00:22:23,710
mats off his off, his great 
grandma's right and it's got 

539
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:25,390
like dangling thing at the end. 
It's a piano. 

540
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:27,510
It's all attached. 
Your piano just hangs off 

541
00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:29,390
anything. 
OK, so your piano is going on 

542
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:30,790
the end of his crib when we make
his crib. 

543
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:31,670
So there is a. 
Used to it? 

544
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:33,610
Yeah, definitely. 
Yeah, I'll tell you otherwise. 

545
00:22:35,110 --> 00:22:38,040
Yeah, no, definitely. 
And that's been a long Treasury 

546
00:22:38,050 --> 00:22:39,300
crackle. 
Yeah, let's do the Jingle. 

547
00:22:44,050 --> 00:22:47,040
OK. 
So 2023 is officially over. 

548
00:22:47,090 --> 00:22:49,200
Little reflection, won't go into
much detail. 

549
00:22:49,210 --> 00:22:52,090
You know about 2023. 
There's probably some podcast 

550
00:22:52,100 --> 00:22:53,020
they can listen to. 
Yeah. 

551
00:22:53,030 --> 00:22:54,660
Do we talk? 
About our life across 20 did. 

552
00:22:54,670 --> 00:22:56,820
We every single week for a whole
year. 

553
00:22:56,830 --> 00:22:58,320
Yeah, pretty much. 
Yeah, you can. 

554
00:22:58,410 --> 00:23:02,120
But you know, babies, podcasts, 
strikes, our business. 

555
00:23:02,130 --> 00:23:03,840
All strikes. 
Go back and listen to episode 

556
00:23:03,850 --> 00:23:05,190
one of our podcast if you 
haven't. 

557
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:08,120
Why are teachers? 
Striking And who knows what? 

558
00:23:08,130 --> 00:23:09,020
Might come back. 
Around. 

559
00:23:09,030 --> 00:23:09,740
Yeah. 
Nice. 

560
00:23:09,750 --> 00:23:11,740
One, I don't know. 
I didn't write all the titles. 

561
00:23:11,750 --> 00:23:13,390
If I write a title, Dylan, those
changes. 

562
00:23:14,110 --> 00:23:16,580
So it doesn't matter if I write 
anything ever. 

563
00:23:16,670 --> 00:23:18,800
Literally any. 
If I give any idea about 

564
00:23:18,810 --> 00:23:21,740
anything, ever. 
Doesn't matter if it's good or 

565
00:23:21,750 --> 00:23:23,860
not, It often isn't. 
He will change it. 

566
00:23:23,870 --> 00:23:24,960
Guaranteed. 
Guaranteed. 

567
00:23:25,010 --> 00:23:26,300
Because do you know? 
Why? 

568
00:23:26,430 --> 00:23:28,020
You know, there's a reason. 
Yeah, I know it's. 

569
00:23:28,030 --> 00:23:30,710
Not I know really why, but go 
on, tell me why you undermine. 

570
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:31,780
You. 
Here we go. 

571
00:23:32,390 --> 00:23:35,640
Because then if it goes wrong, I
can blame myself and not get 

572
00:23:35,650 --> 00:23:38,700
annoyed at you. 
Because if it goes wrong, I'll 

573
00:23:38,710 --> 00:23:40,650
be like God's sake Hayden, like 
why? 

574
00:23:40,660 --> 00:23:42,970
Why have you done that? 
Why are you named it this time? 

575
00:23:42,980 --> 00:23:45,220
If I name it something and it 
flops, I'd be like, ohh, I'm an 

576
00:23:45,230 --> 00:23:46,430
idiot. 
I can just blame myself. 

577
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:49,250
Yeah yeah, that's fine. 
But I'd much rather get annoyed 

578
00:23:49,260 --> 00:23:50,550
at myself than anyone else. 
Fair enough. 

579
00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:52,020
That's the reason. 
That's understandable. 

580
00:23:52,030 --> 00:23:54,110
What's your reason that you? 
Thought was then just because. 

581
00:23:54,120 --> 00:23:58,030
You're controlling, horribly 
undermining demon. 

582
00:24:00,490 --> 00:24:02,520
That's the real reason maybe. 
Are you just? 

583
00:24:02,530 --> 00:24:04,780
Like you like to be fair, I'll 
give you a credit. 

584
00:24:04,790 --> 00:24:06,820
You are good at stuff like that.
So I usually just leave it to 

585
00:24:06,830 --> 00:24:08,670
you anyway because your chances 
are you do a better job. 

586
00:24:08,710 --> 00:24:10,860
But when I do it and you change,
I'm just like, yeah, whatever, 

587
00:24:10,870 --> 00:24:12,100
just change it. 
Just really. 

588
00:24:12,110 --> 00:24:15,100
Annoying. 
Anyway, after a little therapy 

589
00:24:15,110 --> 00:24:17,230
session. 
Now again, the main point of 

590
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:19,960
this podcast, I suppose, is not 
to look back, is to look to. 

591
00:24:19,970 --> 00:24:23,500
Look forward. 
It's to look. 

592
00:24:23,510 --> 00:24:26,110
Christmas would look. 
You know what? 

593
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:29,730
You would love references. 
Here to Uppercross. 

594
00:24:29,740 --> 00:24:33,930
Hope you keeping up guys. 
Yeah, so 2024, you know, I'm not

595
00:24:33,940 --> 00:24:35,530
one who actually likes 
resolutions. 

596
00:24:35,540 --> 00:24:40,550
However, I like a challenge. 
I like a competition that gets 

597
00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:42,690
me going, especially the idea of
beating you. 

598
00:24:42,730 --> 00:24:46,160
OK, So I was thinking, we've had
children in the last two or 

599
00:24:46,170 --> 00:24:49,040
three months and let's not 
pretend that that's the reason 

600
00:24:49,050 --> 00:24:52,070
why we're in horrible shape 
because we've been doing, we've 

601
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:56,000
been deteriorating for I think 
since COVID, personally, I think

602
00:24:56,010 --> 00:24:59,510
pre COVID, yeah, I did my last 
little health kick, yeah. 

603
00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:01,940
And I I I felt good when we 
joined the. 

604
00:25:01,950 --> 00:25:02,840
Gym. 
Yeah, I know. 

605
00:25:02,850 --> 00:25:04,720
That was one of our resolutions.
We did that in January. 

606
00:25:04,730 --> 00:25:06,190
Yeah, And that. 
We were like, we're not gonna be

607
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:08,610
those people that last until 
January, yeah. 

608
00:25:09,180 --> 00:25:12,520
Yeah, we went about five times. 
But the point? 

609
00:25:12,530 --> 00:25:15,140
Being, I think a little 
competition between me and you 

610
00:25:15,150 --> 00:25:17,600
is way more likely to succeed 
than us. 

611
00:25:17,610 --> 00:25:19,780
Just me sat in my own house 
going, oh, I'll do this thing 

612
00:25:19,790 --> 00:25:22,150
tomorrow particularly. 
With, like, public shame on the 

613
00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:24,860
Exactly, Because it's on the. 
Podcast now, and we're going to 

614
00:25:24,870 --> 00:25:27,180
put it on Instagram. 
We're gonna have a little vote I

615
00:25:27,190 --> 00:25:29,650
think, on this. 
So to listen on Spotify, go and 

616
00:25:29,660 --> 00:25:33,640
vote right now. 
Who Will Win this challenge, 

617
00:25:33,650 --> 00:25:37,230
which is to last the longest in 
terms of streaks of days. 

618
00:25:37,290 --> 00:25:39,530
Yeah, we're going to come up 
with something today that we 

619
00:25:39,540 --> 00:25:40,760
both have to do every single 
day. 

620
00:25:40,770 --> 00:25:43,040
It might not be the same thing, 
but it might be OK. 

621
00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:45,900
We have to do every single day. 
The person with the longest 

622
00:25:45,910 --> 00:25:47,890
streak wins. 
If you miss a day. 

623
00:25:47,900 --> 00:25:49,570
What? 
Any point you lose mine's. 

624
00:25:49,580 --> 00:25:51,570
Going to be something to do with
cuddling my baby. 

625
00:25:51,660 --> 00:25:55,670
OK, that's I'm gonna. 
Win. 

626
00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:58,010
I love that. 
You need a competition to do 

627
00:25:58,020 --> 00:26:00,090
that, right? 
I'm not kidding. 

628
00:26:00,100 --> 00:26:01,390
My baby. 
I'm not rapping enough presents 

629
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:03,010
for her. 
I'm gonna wrap present everyday 

630
00:26:03,020 --> 00:26:06,790
for my baby until I just learned
that it's actually OK to do 

631
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:09,010
right. 
So rap, present, cuddle baby. 

632
00:26:09,260 --> 00:26:13,110
Need competition? 
I got the presents. 

633
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:16,070
Come here, little. 
Pianos. 

634
00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:18,710
So what you actually thinking 
then cause something of? 

635
00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:19,290
Health. 
OK. 

636
00:26:19,300 --> 00:26:20,950
And I want, I want us to discuss
it. 

637
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,710
And as the other person, we 
might have a different kind of 

638
00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:25,340
viewpoint to what would be good 
for them. 

639
00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:31,260
For example, for you, there's a 
lot there we did not write down,

640
00:26:31,710 --> 00:26:33,860
so I'm thinking I did a few 
years ago. 

641
00:26:33,870 --> 00:26:38,510
I cut sugar out of my diet 
completely and I I I tell I know

642
00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:41,180
we had the recent one with 
Martin, the fitness guy, and he 

643
00:26:41,190 --> 00:26:42,980
was talking about being 
realistic and this is probably 

644
00:26:42,990 --> 00:26:44,900
going against what he's saying, 
but it works for us. 

645
00:26:45,490 --> 00:26:50,820
I cut sugar out cold Turkey from
my diet for about 3 months. 

646
00:26:50,830 --> 00:26:52,320
I think it was in the end you 
only. 

647
00:26:52,330 --> 00:26:57,020
Ate cold Turkey. 
Yeah, for two to three months 

648
00:26:57,030 --> 00:26:59,170
where I would have egg. 
Like not. 

649
00:26:59,180 --> 00:27:01,130
There's another sugar in bread. 
Yeah. 

650
00:27:01,140 --> 00:27:03,120
You know what I mean? 
I had egg on toast for 

651
00:27:03,130 --> 00:27:05,960
breakfast. 
I had chicken salad for lunch 

652
00:27:06,010 --> 00:27:07,680
and some kind of meat and veg 
for dinner. 

653
00:27:08,490 --> 00:27:09,410
That was it. 
Yeah. 

654
00:27:09,420 --> 00:27:09,940
You lost. 
So. 

655
00:27:09,950 --> 00:27:11,080
Much weight. 
Oh my God. 

656
00:27:11,090 --> 00:27:13,670
But not only the losing weight 
thing was cool, right? 

657
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:16,770
Yeah, But I felt unreal. 
And I think one of the biggest, 

658
00:27:16,780 --> 00:27:20,140
the biggest reasons for that was
getting over that sugar, like 

659
00:27:20,150 --> 00:27:23,360
dependency and that kick. 
And also just drinking water 

660
00:27:23,570 --> 00:27:26,220
because I drink. 
Yeah, 100% felt unreal. 

661
00:27:26,230 --> 00:27:27,630
So you're less tired, Weren't? 
You remember that? 

662
00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:29,690
Yes, so. 
Much less tired like the 4th, 

663
00:27:29,700 --> 00:27:32,410
5th day, horrible headaches, 
horrible pangs where my brain 

664
00:27:32,420 --> 00:27:35,770
was obviously like where is this
glucose that I just thrive off. 

665
00:27:35,900 --> 00:27:38,910
Yeah, but after two weeks I was 
energised. 

666
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:41,070
I was eating less but had more 
energy. 

667
00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:43,810
Sleep was easier. 
I could go down more easily, 

668
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:45,910
although not a problem now cause
I'm knackered all the time. 

669
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:50,170
The baby drinking just water 
really helped I so so basically 

670
00:27:50,180 --> 00:27:51,970
I think I'm going to do that. 
The other things were maybe go 

671
00:27:51,980 --> 00:27:54,170
for make sure I go for at least 
a 20 minute walk every day. 

672
00:27:54,220 --> 00:27:57,820
Just exercise everyday, which 
would be easier then just take. 

673
00:27:57,830 --> 00:27:59,630
The baby. 
The problem is that the baby 

674
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:01,430
does make it easier actually, 
because there's a bit more of a 

675
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:05,310
reason then. 
But I just find walking so 

676
00:28:05,380 --> 00:28:08,270
boring. 
Yeah, the odd walk is nice, but 

677
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:11,070
if it's everyday within like 3 
days, I already resent it. 

678
00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:12,530
I'd be like, oh, but why don't 
you? 

679
00:28:12,540 --> 00:28:15,110
Find a good podcast, Hayden. 
When I find a good podcast, 

680
00:28:15,820 --> 00:28:18,970
listen to it. 
But the point is, I think no 

681
00:28:18,980 --> 00:28:22,680
matter what we choose here, 
every day there's a competition 

682
00:28:22,690 --> 00:28:24,310
and I need to take it off and I 
need to beat you. 

683
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:25,650
And you know what? 
I'm doing it. 

684
00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:26,960
I think it might drive us 
through. 

685
00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:29,650
And I'd love anyone at home to 
join in with this. 

686
00:28:29,660 --> 00:28:32,390
I know it's daily streak. 
You can message us at Teach Your

687
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:34,550
Peak podcast, something you're 
gonna do every day. 

688
00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:35,750
It could be something really 
simple. 

689
00:28:35,820 --> 00:28:38,510
It could be cuddle your baby 
jokes aside, That could be 

690
00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:41,250
something you want to do. 
It could be, you know, read a 

691
00:28:41,260 --> 00:28:43,290
chapter of a book. 
It could be read 3 pages of a 

692
00:28:43,300 --> 00:28:45,650
book every day, something or 
even just. 

693
00:28:45,660 --> 00:28:48,450
Something personal to you, Like 
for me, things like things I 

694
00:28:48,460 --> 00:28:52,170
struggle with, right? 
Stuff like sleep, going to bed 

695
00:28:52,180 --> 00:28:55,220
at the right time. 
So bad at just taking myself to 

696
00:28:55,230 --> 00:28:56,760
bed when I actually should go to
bed. 

697
00:28:57,270 --> 00:28:59,590
Do you not find that all of 
these things are objectively 

698
00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:01,920
really easy? 
Yeah, of course they like. 

699
00:29:01,990 --> 00:29:04,400
Is it easy to not eat chocolate?
Is it easy? 

700
00:29:04,410 --> 00:29:07,460
To stand up and walk to your bed
and lay in it. 

701
00:29:07,910 --> 00:29:11,060
Is it easy to not doom scroll? 
Yeah, and not sit on Instagram. 

702
00:29:11,070 --> 00:29:13,720
Or not TikTok for hours, but 
like Martin. 

703
00:29:13,730 --> 00:29:15,810
Said they are. 
They are simple actions and 

704
00:29:15,820 --> 00:29:17,950
they're not easy to do. 
It meant, you know, they they 

705
00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:19,720
are challenging to do. 
Otherwise you would do them 

706
00:29:19,730 --> 00:29:21,650
exactly that. 
There's a reason why people sit 

707
00:29:21,660 --> 00:29:24,450
on Instagram for 40 minutes and 
lose that time because the 

708
00:29:24,460 --> 00:29:27,470
chemicals in their brain, you're
being manipulated by big tech. 

709
00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:29,070
You're not a failure for doing 
that. 

710
00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:32,250
Umm, You are literally being 
manipulated by big tech to keep 

711
00:29:32,260 --> 00:29:33,760
your eyes on the screen, to 
watch adverts. 

712
00:29:33,770 --> 00:29:35,810
Yeah, we're just turning into 
shells, wasn't I? 

713
00:29:35,820 --> 00:29:37,070
Don't. 
Know how much truth there is in 

714
00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:38,110
this. 
But the person that invented 

715
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:40,730
doom scrolling, you know, the 
infinite scroll, you think of 

716
00:29:40,740 --> 00:29:42,390
dynamite. 
What? 

717
00:29:44,780 --> 00:29:46,970
The person that invented 
Oppenheimer was invented. 

718
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:54,060
Yeah. 
Wasn't that what that film was 

719
00:29:54,070 --> 00:29:56,600
about? 
I think we've destroyed the 

720
00:29:56,610 --> 00:29:58,360
world. 
That's it. 

721
00:29:59,910 --> 00:30:03,480
Telling the person invented 
infinite scrolling, regretted it

722
00:30:03,490 --> 00:30:06,230
or something like that. 
Yes. 

723
00:30:07,490 --> 00:30:08,730
All the big tech. 
It's all designed. 

724
00:30:08,740 --> 00:30:10,920
Just keep your eyes on the 
screen to rot your brain. 

725
00:30:10,970 --> 00:30:13,030
It's horrendous. 
And we've talked a million times

726
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:15,430
about how it is not suitable for
I Wanna Lay In. 

727
00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:18,850
Bed at midnight and watch a fine
compilation from 2015 and I'm 

728
00:30:18,860 --> 00:30:19,460
gonna do it. 
All right? 

729
00:30:19,470 --> 00:30:21,880
Someone had a really. 
Good point though, which was, do

730
00:30:21,890 --> 00:30:26,270
you ever remember 3 reels ago 
whenever you're scrolling? 

731
00:30:26,340 --> 00:30:27,430
I don't remember. 
Three. 

732
00:30:27,500 --> 00:30:28,960
Anything you don't remember. 
The thing you're. 

733
00:30:28,970 --> 00:30:30,890
Watching for What are we doing 
now? 

734
00:30:30,900 --> 00:30:32,430
But the. 
The point I'm making is you 

735
00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:34,810
don't getting value out of that.
You're getting dopamine hits in 

736
00:30:34,820 --> 00:30:37,130
a bit of a laugh, Yeah, not 
getting really getting any about

737
00:30:37,140 --> 00:30:38,550
learning. 
Anything really, and you don't 

738
00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:40,180
need to learn everything. 
All the time you can just enjoy 

739
00:30:40,190 --> 00:30:44,210
stuff, but it is the lowest form
of and I do all the time. 

740
00:30:44,250 --> 00:30:46,520
I'm like, I'm that person who 
walks around. 

741
00:30:46,530 --> 00:30:50,140
I don't have TikTok on my phone,
no, but it was some reels for an

742
00:30:50,150 --> 00:30:50,920
hour and a half. 
Which. 

743
00:30:51,230 --> 00:30:53,540
Which are tik toks. 
From two weeks ago I found the 

744
00:30:53,550 --> 00:30:56,470
way to real. 
Yeah, so it's all the same. 

745
00:30:56,790 --> 00:31:00,610
So I think my it's gonna be 
diet. 

746
00:31:00,690 --> 00:31:04,240
Because I know if I look at my 
life as a whole, the worst 

747
00:31:04,310 --> 00:31:07,820
aspect of it in terms of my 
discipline and its quality is my

748
00:31:07,830 --> 00:31:10,840
diet. 
So I think my one is going to be

749
00:31:11,010 --> 00:31:13,120
how many days in a row can I not
consume sugar? 

750
00:31:13,190 --> 00:31:15,320
OK. 
I've got one then, because I 

751
00:31:15,330 --> 00:31:17,360
know you've had success with 
that, and I've had success with 

752
00:31:17,370 --> 00:31:20,460
a very similar thing before. 
Mine is going to be, I'm going 

753
00:31:20,470 --> 00:31:23,780
to go back on the, what's it 
called, the fasting diet. 

754
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:25,240
Yeah. 
I really. 

755
00:31:25,250 --> 00:31:28,160
Quite like because I again. 
I feel like we're going, thanks.

756
00:31:28,170 --> 00:31:30,940
What Martin was saying here in 
terms of simple and stuff, but 

757
00:31:31,150 --> 00:31:34,340
the fasting diet is grounded in 
like research and stuff. 

758
00:31:34,350 --> 00:31:35,930
And and you did it and it 
worked. 

759
00:31:35,940 --> 00:31:38,500
Yeah, it felt good. 
I I lost a stone in about a 

760
00:31:38,510 --> 00:31:39,530
month and a half. 
Yeah. 

761
00:31:40,190 --> 00:31:42,840
And and I wasn't like, I wasn't 
going crazy on it. 

762
00:31:42,850 --> 00:31:45,640
It was literally just a case of 
this and and people find their 

763
00:31:45,650 --> 00:31:47,660
own different windows of time to
do things right. 

764
00:31:47,670 --> 00:31:52,280
So for me it was I don't. 
I only eat between lunch and 

765
00:31:52,290 --> 00:31:54,640
dinner Because you don't eat 
breakfast anyway. 

766
00:31:54,650 --> 00:31:56,200
No, I did exactly. 
So that was easy for me. 

767
00:31:56,210 --> 00:31:58,170
I was like, well, I don't really
care about breakfast anyway, so 

768
00:31:58,180 --> 00:32:00,220
all I've got to do is make it to
lunch without snacking. 

769
00:32:00,230 --> 00:32:01,390
Make. 
That's what I normally do, is 

770
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:05,080
I'll eat some crap before lunch.
So I was like, OK, I'll eat and 

771
00:32:05,090 --> 00:32:10,280
eat lunch around 12:00 and I'll 
eat dinner around 7:00 and and 

772
00:32:10,290 --> 00:32:12,100
any I can eat anything I want 
between those hours. 

773
00:32:12,110 --> 00:32:14,800
I was also trying to be sensible
a little bit because you could 

774
00:32:14,810 --> 00:32:18,100
just counteract it by eating 
stupid amounts of food. 

775
00:32:18,170 --> 00:32:20,020
I was like, I'll just eat what I
would normally eat. 

776
00:32:20,030 --> 00:32:23,050
Just a couple of a couple of 
snacks maybe between lunch. 

777
00:32:23,060 --> 00:32:24,370
Just close that window. 
That's it. 

778
00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:26,690
And then. 
But then after dinner I don't 

779
00:32:26,700 --> 00:32:27,660
eat anything. 
Nothing. 

780
00:32:27,670 --> 00:32:29,370
Nothing. 
Including like fizzy drinks and 

781
00:32:29,380 --> 00:32:31,320
stuff. 
It only water goes in my body 

782
00:32:31,370 --> 00:32:35,280
between maybe 7730 and 12:00 
again the next day. 

783
00:32:36,420 --> 00:32:38,640
And I I quite enjoyed it. 
I thought I'd hate it. 

784
00:32:38,650 --> 00:32:40,100
Some people hate the idea of 
fasting. 

785
00:32:40,110 --> 00:32:41,510
They just want to eat little 
often. 

786
00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:44,060
I don't know, like when I'm 
sleeping, I'm sleeping. 

787
00:32:44,070 --> 00:32:45,500
That's eight hours done. 
Yeah. 

788
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:47,590
And then in the morning, I 
didn't have an appetite anyway, 

789
00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:49,850
really, not for a few hours for 
some people. 

790
00:32:49,860 --> 00:32:51,810
That this absolutely doesn't 
work. 

791
00:32:51,820 --> 00:32:54,090
I don't people to listen and be 
like, OK, I'll try that. 

792
00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:56,320
It doesn't work for all people. 
Like it's something you might 

793
00:32:56,330 --> 00:32:58,070
want to try, but. 
The point is it. 

794
00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:01,570
Just kick starts your body into 
using stored fat rather than 

795
00:33:02,030 --> 00:33:04,360
you've been eating and the main.
Goal I guess. 

796
00:33:04,370 --> 00:33:07,600
I think similar to you, the 
weight, the weight loss and like

797
00:33:07,610 --> 00:33:09,950
just looking a bit trimmer is 
like a bonus, it is secondary. 

798
00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:11,360
Genuinely like. 
Like I. 

799
00:33:11,370 --> 00:33:13,080
I truly am quite. 
I think we're both quite lucky 

800
00:33:13,090 --> 00:33:15,670
in that we don't have any of 
that, like body dysmorphia and 

801
00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:18,160
like, yeah, I don't. 
There were points. 

802
00:33:18,170 --> 00:33:20,140
I look, look at ourselves. 
Don't we go, God, what are we 

803
00:33:20,150 --> 00:33:22,260
doing? 
Yeah, but it doesn't like, it 

804
00:33:22,270 --> 00:33:24,080
doesn't end. 
I don't go out and it's not in 

805
00:33:24,090 --> 00:33:26,640
my brain when I walk. 
Around thinking like ohh that 

806
00:33:26,650 --> 00:33:29,690
person, this one I don't really 
care to a lot of male. 

807
00:33:29,700 --> 00:33:31,400
Privilege coming out there as 
well. 

808
00:33:31,450 --> 00:33:34,030
I just want to be healthy. 
Right. 

809
00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:35,330
Yeah. 
And when I did, when I did that 

810
00:33:35,340 --> 00:33:38,240
diet, I was considerably more 
alert. 

811
00:33:38,550 --> 00:33:41,400
I just was, I just felt so much 
better and I could sleep. 

812
00:33:41,410 --> 00:33:43,020
Like I could sleep for like a 
few hours. 

813
00:33:43,210 --> 00:33:45,830
It was I'd go, I'd get like 6 
hours sleep and I'd wake up and 

814
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:47,210
like, Oh no, I'm going to feel 
horrible. 

815
00:33:47,220 --> 00:33:50,050
And then I felt fine. 
I was like, ohh, it's cause I 

816
00:33:50,060 --> 00:33:51,760
didn't. 
I didn't just eat loads of sugar

817
00:33:51,770 --> 00:33:53,410
right before I went to sleep, we
always say. 

818
00:33:53,420 --> 00:33:55,100
This don't we? 
This is something we always say 

819
00:33:55,110 --> 00:33:57,350
to each other. 
We kind of just clicked where we

820
00:33:57,360 --> 00:34:00,860
would have like 10 hours sleep. 
But why am I still tired? 

821
00:34:01,010 --> 00:34:03,350
I was like, OK, here's the link.
It's nothing to do with how much

822
00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:05,540
you've actually slept. 
It's your hi, it's your 

823
00:34:05,550 --> 00:34:07,900
lifestyle. 
Clearly if you have 10 hours 

824
00:34:07,910 --> 00:34:10,620
sleep and you're still tired, 
sleep isn't the problem. 

825
00:34:10,690 --> 00:34:13,699
And I'm and that noticing that 
was like so. 

826
00:34:13,710 --> 00:34:14,860
Obvious. 
Yeah, it's so. 

827
00:34:14,870 --> 00:34:17,820
Obvious, but some of the. 
Best information I got when I 

828
00:34:17,830 --> 00:34:19,360
was when I first did this 
fasting diet. 

829
00:34:19,370 --> 00:34:21,380
The app that I was using had 
some like, just like 

830
00:34:21,389 --> 00:34:23,480
motivational stuff on it and I 
just blocked and stuff. 

831
00:34:23,489 --> 00:34:26,250
It was really cool and it was 
talking about there was one bit 

832
00:34:26,260 --> 00:34:28,409
talking about hunger and this 
struck me the most because I was

833
00:34:28,420 --> 00:34:31,120
like, God, this makes so much 
sense and I really held on to it

834
00:34:31,290 --> 00:34:33,889
and it was just very simple. 
I don't know if it really is 

835
00:34:33,900 --> 00:34:36,100
this simple or if it was just 
making something way more 

836
00:34:36,110 --> 00:34:38,290
complex, simple. 
But it said there are two types 

837
00:34:38,300 --> 00:34:40,639
of hunger. 
There is physical hunger and 

838
00:34:40,650 --> 00:34:42,909
emotional hunger. 
And this really, really, really 

839
00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:44,830
helped me because I always feel 
like I'm hungry and I need to 

840
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:47,130
eat something. 
And it was like, yeah, it's 

841
00:34:47,139 --> 00:34:49,889
almost always emotional hunger. 
It was it was kind of saying 

842
00:34:49,900 --> 00:34:52,690
like if you're a privileged, 
like if you're a privileged us 

843
00:34:52,699 --> 00:34:54,909
living in this country, you 
know, we've got, we've got 

844
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:59,480
healthy jobs and whatever we can
afford food whenever we need it.

845
00:35:00,170 --> 00:35:02,380
You're probably never really 
physically hungry. 

846
00:35:02,450 --> 00:35:05,840
Physical hunger is when your 
belly is actually gurgling and 

847
00:35:05,850 --> 00:35:08,900
you get like actual cramping 
pain in your stomach where it's 

848
00:35:08,910 --> 00:35:12,040
like, ohh, there's nothing in 
here and you need to put food in

849
00:35:12,050 --> 00:35:14,540
in me please, because I need 
energy compared to emotional 

850
00:35:14,550 --> 00:35:17,000
hunger, which is just 
shortbread. 

851
00:35:17,010 --> 00:35:17,960
Your sugar. 
Yeah. 

852
00:35:19,170 --> 00:35:21,760
Initial where that you're. 
Ohh, we haven't had sugar in 45 

853
00:35:21,770 --> 00:35:23,800
minutes. 
You're hungry. 

854
00:35:23,810 --> 00:35:26,000
You're hungry. 
And it's like, yeah, you're not 

855
00:35:26,010 --> 00:35:26,600
though. 
Yeah. 

856
00:35:26,650 --> 00:35:29,240
What was that test I always used
to do when we used to go so? 

857
00:35:29,250 --> 00:35:30,780
Funny, it was. 
Would you eat a banana? 

858
00:35:30,790 --> 00:35:32,640
Yeah, very simple. 
And the banana. 

859
00:35:32,650 --> 00:35:33,820
Very simple. 
Like you go. 

860
00:35:33,930 --> 00:35:35,590
We've all done this. 
As teachers, you walk into the 

861
00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:37,940
staff room. 
You're not remotely thinking 

862
00:35:37,950 --> 00:35:41,140
about food, Not actually hungry.
Yeah, but knowing in the back of

863
00:35:41,150 --> 00:35:44,000
your mind. 
Wait a minute, there might be 

864
00:35:44,010 --> 00:35:46,540
food in there. 
Yeah, there might be food. 

865
00:35:46,630 --> 00:35:49,100
And Hayden's just moved his 
ringing phone to a place where 

866
00:35:49,110 --> 00:35:54,050
it's making more sound. 
That's great, but you walk into 

867
00:35:54,060 --> 00:35:56,430
the staff room, back your head, 
thinking there's probably food 

868
00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:59,400
in there, even if you don't 
think it consciously back your 

869
00:35:59,410 --> 00:36:00,350
head. 
There might be food in the 

870
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:02,130
course. 
You walk in and there's food. 

871
00:36:02,180 --> 00:36:04,750
Have you ever not taken the food
it was? 

872
00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:07,290
You're hungry or not? 
If there's like a there's a cake

873
00:36:07,300 --> 00:36:09,840
there like I've not. 
Taken it when it's a bowl of 

874
00:36:09,850 --> 00:36:12,410
fruit. 
Exactly, exactly. 

875
00:36:12,420 --> 00:36:15,550
Because we get our star fruit, 
like a hamper of fruit and veg, 

876
00:36:15,620 --> 00:36:18,430
just from the local place that 
drops off sometimes, not once. 

877
00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:22,380
Touch that box of heroes every 
single time I walk in, Hungry or

878
00:36:22,390 --> 00:36:24,210
not, I'll eat too. 
Yeah, yeah, I just. 

879
00:36:24,220 --> 00:36:25,900
Well. 
And that's physically emotional,

880
00:36:25,910 --> 00:36:28,320
emotional hunger. 
You just gotta be on top of it 

881
00:36:28,330 --> 00:36:30,180
and that, just that, that helps 
me a lot actually. 

882
00:36:30,190 --> 00:36:32,770
Just be like ohh just check 
myself every and then outside of

883
00:36:32,780 --> 00:36:33,500
this. 
Am I physically? 

884
00:36:33,510 --> 00:36:35,160
Hungry right now, or do I just 
want that biscuit? 

885
00:36:35,210 --> 00:36:36,940
OK, so. 
There's our challenge then cool 

886
00:36:36,950 --> 00:36:39,180
everybody days in a row. 
So for me, again, the biggest 

887
00:36:39,190 --> 00:36:41,630
part of that probably the drink,
because I'll be drinking water 

888
00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:42,520
and you. 
Love. 

889
00:36:42,750 --> 00:36:45,030
I love any. 
Kind of nice drinks, you every. 

890
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:48,520
So we'll check in every day and 
yours is gonna be no sugar. 

891
00:36:48,530 --> 00:36:51,880
So when we say no sugar, we mean
if there's a bit of sugar in 

892
00:36:51,890 --> 00:36:56,620
bread, that's fine. 
No, like properly processed 

893
00:36:56,630 --> 00:36:58,880
foods and stuff which just have 
sugar jammed into them. 

894
00:36:58,930 --> 00:37:02,560
So, you know, bread, eggs, 
salad, meat. 

895
00:37:02,610 --> 00:37:04,660
Yeah, pretty much it. 
Yeah, not in any of them. 

896
00:37:04,670 --> 00:37:08,540
Just eating biscuits and heroes.
Yeah, of course that's yours. 

897
00:37:08,550 --> 00:37:09,920
And mine will be. 
I'm going to do the fast and 

898
00:37:09,930 --> 00:37:12,440
that again, so as long as I've 
done my 16 hour window every 

899
00:37:12,450 --> 00:37:15,540
day, I've not eating. 
All right, we'll see how we feel

900
00:37:15,550 --> 00:37:17,120
like. 
Still pick up please guys. 

901
00:37:17,130 --> 00:37:19,250
Place your bets please. 
Gonna last the longest. 

902
00:37:19,260 --> 00:37:20,340
Who will last? 
The longest. 

903
00:37:20,350 --> 00:37:22,830
And I wanna hear if you're gonna
do your own challenge. 

904
00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:25,020
I can't. 
Wait next podcast episode to 

905
00:37:25,030 --> 00:37:27,350
tell everyone who came first, 
because we both have caved by 

906
00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:29,340
then. 
I think 2 days. 

907
00:37:29,350 --> 00:37:31,640
You did three and then one side 
came. 

908
00:37:31,650 --> 00:37:33,000
You thought they put me going 
on. 

909
00:37:33,130 --> 00:37:36,540
Yeah, that's that's true. 
We both really gotta keep going 

910
00:37:36,550 --> 00:37:37,330
there, haven't we? 
Yeah. 

911
00:37:37,370 --> 00:37:40,500
OK, so now our resolution. 
But we have some serious news. 

912
00:37:40,510 --> 00:37:42,070
Now we do. 
Because this. 

913
00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:43,660
Is huge. 
This is like a podcast 

914
00:37:43,670 --> 00:37:46,130
exclusive. 
I feel like special. 

915
00:37:46,140 --> 00:37:48,970
And get this crazy. 
We were just on the train and 

916
00:37:48,980 --> 00:37:51,390
Gillian Keegan got off. 
She got off the train. 

917
00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:52,990
She left the bloody laptop on 
the train. 

918
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:54,460
Bloody did. 
So I thought I'll be having 

919
00:37:54,470 --> 00:37:55,730
that. 
Yeah went on there. 

920
00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:58,310
Big leak. 
When I when I say leak, we stole

921
00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:02,270
her laptop and we got this from 
her and unbelievable. 

922
00:38:02,380 --> 00:38:05,140
Quite playful because what it 
was was, I don't know if you 

923
00:38:05,150 --> 00:38:08,630
remember she was advertising for
a camera person I think like 50K

924
00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:10,850
a year more than any teacher. 
And yeah, that's right. 

925
00:38:10,860 --> 00:38:12,890
It was actually. 
A script for them because she 

926
00:38:12,900 --> 00:38:15,970
was putting together a video, so
it was going off to them and 

927
00:38:15,980 --> 00:38:18,920
it's their New Year's resolution
for for the 2024. 

928
00:38:18,930 --> 00:38:20,670
So, yeah, so the government. 
The government? 

929
00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:22,720
The government? 
Exactly so. 

930
00:38:22,730 --> 00:38:25,960
The government set a whole list 
of New Year's resolutions for 

931
00:38:25,970 --> 00:38:29,600
the Fe on how to fix education 
for 2024. 

932
00:38:29,610 --> 00:38:32,020
Yeah, it's hard. 
Because I feel bad. 

933
00:38:32,030 --> 00:38:35,140
Don't. 
They realise that when hundreds 

934
00:38:35,150 --> 00:38:37,640
of thousands of teachers are 
saying things in unison, there 

935
00:38:37,650 --> 00:38:40,700
could, there could be a little 
bit of truth and we need to fix 

936
00:38:40,710 --> 00:38:43,910
it or. 
Having read this, maybe they 

937
00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:47,050
just doubled down on their own 
stance and said you're not. 

938
00:38:47,060 --> 00:38:48,300
They wouldn't do. 
That Now let's have a look. 

939
00:38:48,380 --> 00:38:50,020
Have a look at that. 
So first one, Hayden, what is 

940
00:38:50,030 --> 00:38:51,390
it? 
OK, so the first one on their 

941
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:53,070
list you summarised even you 
cause it was quite long. 

942
00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:53,970
It was long. 
It was long. 

943
00:38:53,980 --> 00:38:56,410
Yeah, Bullet pointed it for me 
because they they thought if 

944
00:38:56,420 --> 00:38:58,290
this is going to get hacked, 
let's give them even more work. 

945
00:38:58,330 --> 00:38:59,730
Yeah, condense. 
It for exactly that. 

946
00:38:59,740 --> 00:39:03,790
So the first thing, New Year's 
resolution for the DfE Let's Fix

947
00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:06,690
Education in 2024, the title 
that was nice that they put that

948
00:39:06,700 --> 00:39:12,630
on there in in Comic Sans. 
Yeah, keep the teachers busy 

949
00:39:12,980 --> 00:39:15,690
because because teachers 
obviously get like, they get 

950
00:39:15,700 --> 00:39:17,590
frustrated, don't they? 
When they're not busy, they get 

951
00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:18,560
hungry. 
Emotional hunger. 

952
00:39:19,970 --> 00:39:23,230
Motion longer for the job keep 
teachers busy with more work. 

953
00:39:23,240 --> 00:39:25,750
So they're going to try, they're
really going to try to up the 

954
00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:28,300
workload, isn't that wasn't? 
That the Wasn't that like a 

955
00:39:28,310 --> 00:39:30,380
really big problem this year 
Workload. 

956
00:39:30,390 --> 00:39:32,400
No, because they're. 
Gonna put workload policies in 

957
00:39:32,410 --> 00:39:34,250
place, but they're gonna up the 
work, right? 

958
00:39:34,260 --> 00:39:35,640
So they'll put, they'll make 
every. 

959
00:39:35,650 --> 00:39:38,330
School put a workload policy in 
place, thus creating workloads. 

960
00:39:38,340 --> 00:39:39,740
Yes, that's it. 
Without. 

961
00:39:39,750 --> 00:39:42,210
Actioning any of the workload 
that will reduce any of it, 

962
00:39:42,220 --> 00:39:43,560
we're. 
Just going to log it now, we're 

963
00:39:43,570 --> 00:39:44,900
gonna say. 
We're gonna log it. 

964
00:39:44,910 --> 00:39:47,100
OK, Well, I'm not sure that will
work. 

965
00:39:47,430 --> 00:39:49,860
I think that's a. 
Good target there, because you 

966
00:39:49,870 --> 00:39:52,230
do seem to. 
The side of anyway, What's the 

967
00:39:52,240 --> 00:39:54,170
next one then, Mr Hey, I mean, 
government still. 

968
00:39:54,180 --> 00:39:55,430
I mean, how you doing? 
What's the? 

969
00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:57,030
Next one. 
Well, the next one and, and I 

970
00:39:57,040 --> 00:39:59,270
think we can have a good 
discussion about this because 

971
00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:01,050
it's really going to have a big 
impact, OK. 

972
00:40:01,090 --> 00:40:04,750
They're gonna keep reducing the 
play, reducing pay against 

973
00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:07,550
introducing play time, reducing 
play and pay time against 

974
00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:09,810
inflation. 
Because what they've noticed is 

975
00:40:10,020 --> 00:40:13,090
over the years, over sort of 20 
years, they've they've kind of 

976
00:40:13,100 --> 00:40:15,110
like halfed how much teachers 
get paid. 

977
00:40:15,580 --> 00:40:17,450
In comparison to what? 
Used to be like but but but. 

978
00:40:17,460 --> 00:40:20,070
They no, because there's no 
they. 

979
00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:22,920
They've put the money up. 
Umm, just not in line with 

980
00:40:22,930 --> 00:40:24,870
inflation. 
They're not gonna, they're not 

981
00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:26,600
gonna give us more money. 
Yes, it's an illusion. 

982
00:40:26,610 --> 00:40:27,260
Isn't it? 
Right. 

983
00:40:27,270 --> 00:40:28,840
Great. 
So it looks like the money's 

984
00:40:28,850 --> 00:40:30,800
gone up over the years. 
Yeah, And it hasn't. 

985
00:40:30,950 --> 00:40:34,920
And what that allows is schools 
can save money, right? 

986
00:40:36,260 --> 00:40:37,380
The budget, yeah, they take the 
budget. 

987
00:40:37,390 --> 00:40:38,800
Away. 
Then they ultimately the 

988
00:40:38,810 --> 00:40:41,020
government saves money, right? 
OK, so you think about it. 

989
00:40:41,030 --> 00:40:43,440
It's a win win, isn't it? 
And have we still got teachers? 

990
00:40:43,450 --> 00:40:44,910
Yeah, we're all still here. 
Well, not. 

991
00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:46,400
Many of us, anyway. 
What's the next one? 

992
00:40:46,450 --> 00:40:50,890
Good, right? 
Next 1-2 Ohh this is a good one.

993
00:40:51,360 --> 00:40:54,210
Continue to slag off teachers OK
in the media. 

994
00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:55,570
This is not great. 
Is it? 

995
00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:58,740
No, I'm starting to think. 
That maybe this isn't positive, 

996
00:40:58,950 --> 00:41:02,410
but positive brain on Yeah, 
you're one of them people. 

997
00:41:02,420 --> 00:41:05,030
Aren't you? 
Who, after 13 years of mayhem 

998
00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:09,580
and Matt, 14, now utter madness,
You still think, well, they 

999
00:41:09,590 --> 00:41:10,830
might get it right? 
Yeah, they are. 

1000
00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:12,530
They're. 
They've got this, they say, 

1001
00:41:12,540 --> 00:41:13,720
trying. 
OK. 

1002
00:41:13,730 --> 00:41:16,530
What's the next one? 
So one obviously that's enough 

1003
00:41:16,540 --> 00:41:20,330
teachers in the media and the 
best person to do that and 

1004
00:41:20,830 --> 00:41:22,860
education secretary, the person 
in charge of the person 

1005
00:41:22,870 --> 00:41:24,580
representing us. 
So, David, Jillian. 

1006
00:41:24,590 --> 00:41:25,740
Keegan. 
Jillian Keegan, Yeah. 

1007
00:41:25,750 --> 00:41:29,180
Continue to absolutely just 
misrepresent teachers, slag off 

1008
00:41:29,190 --> 00:41:32,520
her own kind, and just benefit. 
For them to do that. 

1009
00:41:34,650 --> 00:41:36,380
What do you mean? 
It's obvious, isn't it? 

1010
00:41:37,130 --> 00:41:38,500
What you mean it was benefits. 
Obvious. 

1011
00:41:38,570 --> 00:41:40,200
What's that? 
Keeps the teachers in check? 

1012
00:41:40,210 --> 00:41:41,320
Keeps us doing our jobs 
properly? 

1013
00:41:41,330 --> 00:41:41,900
OK. 
Yeah. 

1014
00:41:41,910 --> 00:41:44,440
Sure, you know if everyone. 
Hates teachers. 

1015
00:41:44,450 --> 00:41:46,540
Teachers are more likely to do 
their job properly and not quite

1016
00:41:46,550 --> 00:41:48,360
OK well, surely? 
They've at least got a 

1017
00:41:48,370 --> 00:41:51,320
resolution in there about having
some stability, keeping the same

1018
00:41:51,330 --> 00:41:52,770
education system. 
Now what? 

1019
00:41:52,780 --> 00:41:55,030
We've got to do right and the 
Tories done this very well so 

1020
00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:56,890
far. 
We keep doing this is every sort

1021
00:41:56,900 --> 00:41:58,440
of year or. 
Less. 

1022
00:41:58,530 --> 00:41:59,620
Or less. 
Yeah. 

1023
00:41:59,630 --> 00:42:02,600
Kind of like the Prime Minister.
Yeah, just sort of just kind of 

1024
00:42:02,610 --> 00:42:06,420
ditch the education secretary if
your thank you for your work. 

1025
00:42:06,430 --> 00:42:07,750
Yeah. 
For the last six weeks. 

1026
00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:08,120
Yeah. 
Ohh. 

1027
00:42:08,130 --> 00:42:09,740
No, wait. 
Jillian Keegan doesn't get 

1028
00:42:09,750 --> 00:42:10,210
enough. 
Thanks. 

1029
00:42:10,220 --> 00:42:11,860
Remember. 
Ohh, She was she was desperate 

1030
00:42:11,870 --> 00:42:12,430
for enough. 
Thanks. 

1031
00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:14,520
So we're gonna. 
Thank her a bit more 1st and 

1032
00:42:14,530 --> 00:42:16,770
then we're gonna Yep. 
OK get another one in. 

1033
00:42:16,780 --> 00:42:19,830
We've got to make sure to to two
rules here. 

1034
00:42:19,900 --> 00:42:24,730
Eva 0 experience in education or
bonus That and they also went to

1035
00:42:24,740 --> 00:42:28,130
private school so they have no 
real life experience in like 

1036
00:42:28,170 --> 00:42:31,890
school. 
I to be fair, that's the only 

1037
00:42:31,900 --> 00:42:33,930
one there where I think that's 
grounded in logic. 

1038
00:42:33,940 --> 00:42:35,130
Yeah. 
Yeah, that makes sense. 

1039
00:42:35,140 --> 00:42:36,990
It does work. 
It does make sense work trickle 

1040
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:39,830
down, you know. 
So last thing though, trickle 

1041
00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:41,890
down, trickle doesn't. 
Work trickle. 

1042
00:42:41,900 --> 00:42:43,250
Up. 
I don't know. 

1043
00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:47,490
OK, so last one, this one. 
OK, so this. 

1044
00:42:47,660 --> 00:42:50,880
Let me have a look. 
Make sure to lose the election 

1045
00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:56,670
so that we can put this party to
Labour and then blame them when 

1046
00:42:56,680 --> 00:42:58,430
they take necessary action to 
fix it. 

1047
00:42:58,500 --> 00:43:00,960
That is actually, from a 
Conservative point of view, 

1048
00:43:00,970 --> 00:43:04,270
probably a pretty good today. 
Get it in the worst place 

1049
00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:06,570
possible, pass over and go. 
What have you done? 

1050
00:43:07,060 --> 00:43:09,870
What have you done? 
It's like moving house, leaving 

1051
00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:12,550
a boiler that's broken. 
New people come in, like why 

1052
00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:15,560
don't you boiler? 
Yeah, you idiot. 

1053
00:43:15,780 --> 00:43:18,150
I looked after that boiler for 
years. 

1054
00:43:18,620 --> 00:43:20,080
Where's? 
Where's the service history? 

1055
00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:23,510
Bye. 
I tell you what, though, works, 

1056
00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:25,930
doesn't it? 
People are people forget. 

1057
00:43:25,940 --> 00:43:27,500
Yeah, we learnt that through 
COVID. 

1058
00:43:27,510 --> 00:43:29,180
I think. 
I know the amount of stuff that 

1059
00:43:29,190 --> 00:43:31,340
happened where we're the whole 
country was livid. 

1060
00:43:31,350 --> 00:43:33,500
Yeah. 
And then months later it was as 

1061
00:43:33,510 --> 00:43:35,170
if it never happened. 
Well, that's the one. 

1062
00:43:35,180 --> 00:43:38,520
Benefit I think of the 
unbelievable turmoil of changing

1063
00:43:38,530 --> 00:43:41,300
the Prime Minister every two 
months is actually now we're 

1064
00:43:41,310 --> 00:43:43,880
pretty far removed from that. 
Yeah, I know even. 

1065
00:43:43,890 --> 00:43:46,480
Though. 
Rishi was the bloody chancellor.

1066
00:43:47,130 --> 00:43:50,260
He's like where she gets to be. 
The guy gave people money and 

1067
00:43:50,270 --> 00:43:52,250
now the guy who isn't Boris, I 
remember thinking. 

1068
00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:54,590
People are not ever gonna vote 
Tory again. 

1069
00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:56,330
I remember actually sat there 
thinking, this is it, They've 

1070
00:43:56,340 --> 00:43:58,390
they've actually done it. 
Like they've completely, 

1071
00:43:58,400 --> 00:43:59,910
completely destroyed their 
coming up. 

1072
00:43:59,920 --> 00:44:01,670
Where they? 
Gave billions and billions of 

1073
00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:04,430
pounds to fast track companies 
that had just been set up who 

1074
00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:06,130
happened to also be donors to 
the party. 

1075
00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:09,670
It couldn't be more of an 
absolute sham. 

1076
00:44:09,680 --> 00:44:13,190
And they've taken the taxpayer 
for an absolute ride and 

1077
00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:18,100
literally fleeced billions from 
the average Joe whilst also 

1078
00:44:18,110 --> 00:44:21,010
arguing there's no money to pay 
anyone in the public sector and 

1079
00:44:21,020 --> 00:44:23,090
then they've gone. 
Can you vote for us though? 

1080
00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:28,840
Because ohh if labour get in ohh
joint, Remember Remember when 

1081
00:44:28,850 --> 00:44:29,910
labour. 
No, we don't remember when 

1082
00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:32,280
labour in you know, it's been so
long we don't remember it. 

1083
00:44:32,290 --> 00:44:34,940
Actually I do remember it cause 
I was in school and we had stuff

1084
00:44:34,950 --> 00:44:37,790
that was that was nice actually.
Yeah I grew up in 2 minutes. 

1085
00:44:37,830 --> 00:44:41,300
I do remember, yeah, was that 
when there was like a global 

1086
00:44:41,310 --> 00:44:43,950
economic crash and somehow that 
was Gordon Brown's fault for 

1087
00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:47,720
making museums free? 
Was it making the museums free? 

1088
00:44:47,730 --> 00:44:50,100
Or was it the global economic 
crash that came from the 

1089
00:44:50,110 --> 00:44:54,270
American mortgage market? 
Don't know Gordon Brown, but. 

1090
00:44:54,280 --> 00:44:56,570
I'd say that's equal to giving 
your mates billions of pounds 

1091
00:44:56,580 --> 00:44:58,570
because they give you some money
for your party. 

1092
00:44:58,580 --> 00:45:00,890
And actually they just set up a 
shell company and then sold PPE 

1093
00:45:00,900 --> 00:45:03,110
products for billions of pounds 
of profit, which actually ended 

1094
00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:05,370
up not ever being used. 
I'd say that's pretty even. 

1095
00:45:05,380 --> 00:45:06,250
Where's the evidence? 
Still? 

1096
00:45:06,860 --> 00:45:08,600
Where's? 
The evidence all been deleted, 

1097
00:45:08,610 --> 00:45:10,790
so don't worry about it. 
Isn't it, well, weird how 

1098
00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:13,660
WhatsApp literally has a 
built-in backup feature and it's

1099
00:45:13,670 --> 00:45:15,950
never failed ever since it 
started, But it did. 

1100
00:45:16,020 --> 00:45:19,440
It did for that group chat. 
Very odd. 

1101
00:45:19,500 --> 00:45:22,020
Hmm. 
Stuff like that does does just 

1102
00:45:22,090 --> 00:45:23,270
why is government? 
Stuff happening. 

1103
00:45:23,280 --> 00:45:26,210
What's happening? 
Sorry, I'm sorry, but I won't 

1104
00:45:26,220 --> 00:45:27,020
talk anyway. 
No, no, no. 

1105
00:45:27,030 --> 00:45:29,940
I'm sorry. 
You're bringing up a good point.

1106
00:45:29,950 --> 00:45:31,560
Which is why. 
Why was it on WhatsApp? 

1107
00:45:31,570 --> 00:45:32,700
I don't know. 
I don't know. 

1108
00:45:32,990 --> 00:45:34,130
It was very informal chat, 
wasn't it? 

1109
00:45:34,140 --> 00:45:37,620
Wasn't really a problem. 
That just reminds me, that sort 

1110
00:45:37,630 --> 00:45:41,600
of stuff where it's like, no 
blindingly obvious. 

1111
00:45:41,610 --> 00:45:44,650
He's trying to interrupt me 
again that that there's like 

1112
00:45:44,660 --> 00:45:47,410
corruption going on sometimes. 
Sometimes like a lot of 

1113
00:45:47,420 --> 00:45:49,340
corruption I think is very well 
disguised. 

1114
00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:51,010
But sometimes you get the odd 
thing. 

1115
00:45:51,020 --> 00:45:53,460
The best corruption is. 
Yeah, the best corruption. 

1116
00:45:53,530 --> 00:45:55,870
But I just don't. 
I'm like how there's millions of

1117
00:45:55,880 --> 00:45:57,620
people looking at that and 
there'll be millions of people 

1118
00:45:57,630 --> 00:46:01,600
that go, yeah, what's up? 
Just went down I Walt and 

1119
00:46:01,610 --> 00:46:02,910
there'll also. 
Be millions of people looking at

1120
00:46:02,920 --> 00:46:03,510
it. 
Go well. 

1121
00:46:03,520 --> 00:46:05,120
I quite liked him, so I'll 
ignore that. 

1122
00:46:05,170 --> 00:46:07,330
Hmm. 
Ignore that bit, he he stood. 

1123
00:46:07,340 --> 00:46:08,990
Up for us, Yeah. 
Boris Johnson. 

1124
00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:10,960
Boris DE Pfeffel. 
Johnson stood up for you. 

1125
00:46:10,970 --> 00:46:14,870
Yeah, the are you, Are you? 
He wrote the guy who wrote an 

1126
00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:17,220
Article 4 and against Brexit and
then just shows what he thought 

1127
00:46:17,230 --> 00:46:20,010
would win. 
You think he cares about you, 

1128
00:46:20,060 --> 00:46:22,560
you idiot? 
Yeah, and that's what I say to 

1129
00:46:22,570 --> 00:46:26,490
my son he told me about. 
There we go. 

1130
00:46:26,500 --> 00:46:29,700
We got there eventually. 
Brilliant. 

1131
00:46:29,870 --> 00:46:32,490
Well, have you enjoyed? 
That government leak exclusive 

1132
00:46:32,500 --> 00:46:33,560
here, teacher. 
Repeat. 

1133
00:46:33,570 --> 00:46:35,170
All right, let's play the. 
Jingle, then let's go a bit more

1134
00:46:35,180 --> 00:46:39,870
like heart, shall we? 
OK, OK guys, so we're back. 

1135
00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:41,650
Hey, this drinking I've done on 
purpose. 

1136
00:46:41,840 --> 00:46:46,420
You got a mouthful of Sprite, 
You're hidden kindly. 

1137
00:46:46,430 --> 00:46:48,930
Joked. 
I really enjoy waiting. 

1138
00:46:48,940 --> 00:46:52,510
For it to touch your lips, like,
OK, so I had a bit of a chat 

1139
00:46:52,520 --> 00:46:54,940
there. 
I mean, ohh, yeah, good. 

1140
00:46:55,010 --> 00:46:57,720
We've set ourselves some goals. 
We're going to stick to them 

1141
00:46:57,730 --> 00:46:58,500
now. 
One more. 

1142
00:46:58,510 --> 00:47:00,500
Goal Yep. 
For 2020. 

1143
00:47:00,510 --> 00:47:04,540
Four is I'm going to try and get
you riled up a little bit more 

1144
00:47:04,660 --> 00:47:07,630
in the podcast, politics, 
whatever, education, just 

1145
00:47:07,640 --> 00:47:09,260
something. 
Because I think we like 

1146
00:47:09,270 --> 00:47:11,880
listening to Dylan get really 
pissed off, basically. 

1147
00:47:13,300 --> 00:47:16,920
Think some people like it, and 
some people just enjoy seeing me

1148
00:47:16,930 --> 00:47:18,670
get angry, seeing my blood 
pressure rise. 

1149
00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:19,630
Me. 
Yeah. 

1150
00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:22,780
Anyway, OK, so couple of games, 
a bit of fun. 

1151
00:47:22,910 --> 00:47:24,350
I've enjoyed doing the blind 
ranking. 

1152
00:47:24,360 --> 00:47:27,000
That was a really fun. 
And we're gonna keep trying to 

1153
00:47:27,010 --> 00:47:29,870
make up some not make up games. 
They're obviously our games, but

1154
00:47:29,930 --> 00:47:32,180
we see them and I think we can 
apply them to education. 

1155
00:47:32,190 --> 00:47:33,940
Yeah, definitely. 
So can I start? 

1156
00:47:33,950 --> 00:47:36,340
Yeah, this one, hilariously, 
might also get you rolled up. 

1157
00:47:36,390 --> 00:47:38,980
OK, why not? 
Why not straight? 

1158
00:47:39,590 --> 00:47:41,750
So it's hypothetical. 
Again, it's kind of like this or

1159
00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:43,740
that, but this time the two 
options are just. 

1160
00:47:44,310 --> 00:47:46,050
It's like pick the worst. 
Is this again? 

1161
00:47:46,060 --> 00:47:47,720
Where the other one can never 
happen? 

1162
00:47:47,730 --> 00:47:50,150
Or is it just no? 
It is literally just you just 

1163
00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:51,940
have you have to pick one of 
them and they're both they're 

1164
00:47:51,950 --> 00:47:53,980
both terrible. 
One of them's got habits like 

1165
00:47:53,990 --> 00:47:55,270
ohh what's the best of the 
worst. 

1166
00:47:55,280 --> 00:48:00,670
OK, cool OK, so in 2024 starting
Day 1 so it's only applies to 

1167
00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:03,010
24. 
OK, after this your challenge is

1168
00:48:03,020 --> 00:48:04,150
OK. 
So. 

1169
00:48:04,800 --> 00:48:08,450
Starting today, every day of 
2024, your marking is doubled. 

1170
00:48:08,500 --> 00:48:11,590
Oh my God. 
OK, what's the other one? 

1171
00:48:11,640 --> 00:48:15,870
Or you have to pick one. 
It's either that or the job is 

1172
00:48:15,880 --> 00:48:17,930
normal. 
It's just as it normally is. 

1173
00:48:17,940 --> 00:48:19,950
Which might not be that good 
anyway, but it's just as it 

1174
00:48:19,960 --> 00:48:22,190
normally is. 
But no school holidays. 

1175
00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:27,440
You work 52 weeks. 
Ohh. 

1176
00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:29,670
That's hard enough. 
Ohh, what would you pick? 

1177
00:48:29,680 --> 00:48:32,350
You have to pick one. 
What would you pick at home? 

1178
00:48:32,460 --> 00:48:34,090
I started. 
Off thinking that was really, 

1179
00:48:34,100 --> 00:48:35,580
really easy. 
I tell you what my gut instinct 

1180
00:48:35,590 --> 00:48:37,770
was. 
My gut instinct was absolutely 

1181
00:48:37,780 --> 00:48:38,670
needed. 
The holidays. 

1182
00:48:38,740 --> 00:48:40,750
So I was like, I'll take the 
double marking. 

1183
00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:44,310
But then I remembered how much 
marking destroys my soul every 

1184
00:48:44,320 --> 00:48:45,750
single time I did it. 
Yeah, yeah. 

1185
00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:48,650
And the fact of that doubling, 
doubling every single. 

1186
00:48:48,660 --> 00:48:51,510
You'd have your holiday still in
the term. 

1187
00:48:51,570 --> 00:48:52,970
Well, what's a holiday? 
Holiday. 

1188
00:48:52,980 --> 00:48:56,110
Let's just say that's 50 hours, 
isn't it, For the average Joe? 

1189
00:48:57,110 --> 00:49:01,500
So 50 hours. 
You'd have to say 50 hours in a 

1190
00:49:01,510 --> 00:49:04,270
term of the double markings. 
Yeah. 

1191
00:49:04,310 --> 00:49:07,680
So if that's 50 hours on the 
half term, how long do you spend

1192
00:49:07,690 --> 00:49:09,850
marking off? 
Let's say it's an hour, So 

1193
00:49:09,860 --> 00:49:12,410
that's five hours a week times 
6. 

1194
00:49:13,650 --> 00:49:15,560
This is all me listening. 
I think it's just the feel, 

1195
00:49:15,570 --> 00:49:17,160
isn't it? 
It's the feel. 

1196
00:49:17,170 --> 00:49:19,280
No, no, no. 
No, it's the mathematical 

1197
00:49:19,290 --> 00:49:21,640
calculations. 
Yeah, I think that. 

1198
00:49:21,650 --> 00:49:24,890
I would go for having my 
holidays. 

1199
00:49:24,980 --> 00:49:29,630
The point being the the job is a
slog going for that market. 

1200
00:49:29,640 --> 00:49:32,340
Yeah, yeah, so the jobs are slog
because double marking isn't 

1201
00:49:32,350 --> 00:49:34,650
double day. 
Double marking takes your day 

1202
00:49:34,660 --> 00:49:36,790
from a 10 hour day to an 11 hour
day. 

1203
00:49:37,720 --> 00:49:40,470
Whereas getting ready holidays, 
that's a week off. 

1204
00:49:40,520 --> 00:49:42,390
Yeah, you you'd never have a 
week off. 

1205
00:49:42,450 --> 00:49:44,810
I'd burn out straight away. 
So actually, the more I think 

1206
00:49:44,820 --> 00:49:47,590
about it, it's definitely 
keeping the holidays. 

1207
00:49:47,650 --> 00:49:49,250
Yeah. 
And I just have to do some 

1208
00:49:49,260 --> 00:49:49,950
double marking. 
Yeah. 

1209
00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:51,510
And it's great because it's dark
anyway. 

1210
00:49:51,560 --> 00:49:54,070
So yeah, what's double of 
nothing? 

1211
00:49:55,410 --> 00:49:57,120
I guess you done. 
This thing I do, Mark, 

1212
00:49:57,130 --> 00:49:58,560
obviously, yeah, I agree by the.
Way. 

1213
00:49:58,570 --> 00:50:00,010
That's absolutely my choice as 
well. 

1214
00:50:00,020 --> 00:50:01,600
Yeah. 
You just you just couldn't do 

1215
00:50:01,610 --> 00:50:02,400
it. 
No, no. 

1216
00:50:02,410 --> 00:50:05,560
I'd get to like 15 weeks and be 
like I probably have completely.

1217
00:50:05,570 --> 00:50:07,260
You are right. 
Now I was halfway through that 

1218
00:50:07,270 --> 00:50:09,600
maths and I was like, what? 
No, no, obviously it doesn't 

1219
00:50:09,610 --> 00:50:10,960
matter about the house. 
Obviously. 

1220
00:50:10,970 --> 00:50:12,880
Don't not take us need. 
A break. 

1221
00:50:12,930 --> 00:50:15,140
Yeah, because even. 
In in most jobs you get six 

1222
00:50:15,150 --> 00:50:17,600
weeks, 5 weeks, that would be 
nothing. 

1223
00:50:17,610 --> 00:50:20,530
For 52 weeks, Yeah, absolutely. 
Not we've already got a pole for

1224
00:50:20,540 --> 00:50:23,170
this episode, didn't we? 
Yeah, I want to do another one. 

1225
00:50:23,180 --> 00:50:26,020
There's a question we can do an 
Instagram reels can become a 

1226
00:50:26,030 --> 00:50:27,140
real. 
I want to. 

1227
00:50:27,150 --> 00:50:31,260
Know how many of you take 
marking home so teachers out 

1228
00:50:31,270 --> 00:50:32,800
there? 
Because I'm really intrigued 

1229
00:50:32,970 --> 00:50:35,330
because you do get caught into 
your own schools, culture, and 

1230
00:50:35,340 --> 00:50:37,870
really even even beyond that, 
just kind of like yourself and a

1231
00:50:37,880 --> 00:50:41,180
couple of people you speak to. 
And I I refuse to now other than

1232
00:50:41,190 --> 00:50:43,620
one exception you've already 
told me off about this is when 

1233
00:50:43,630 --> 00:50:45,860
we do like longer independent 
pieces of writing because they 

1234
00:50:45,870 --> 00:50:50,040
just take so long to mark. 
So I always take them home by 

1235
00:50:50,050 --> 00:50:52,760
refuse any other marking. 
It doesn't. 

1236
00:50:52,770 --> 00:50:55,580
It never ever ever ever ever 
goes home under any 

1237
00:50:55,970 --> 00:50:57,420
circumstance. 
What? 

1238
00:50:57,430 --> 00:51:00,400
What you're like that is, why 
won't you don't take Yeah 100%. 

1239
00:51:00,410 --> 00:51:02,640
And you know what? 
I'll be fair to myself. 

1240
00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:06,660
I think in my whole career I've 
taken home marking once or 

1241
00:51:06,670 --> 00:51:07,920
twice. 
What, even in the earliest. 

1242
00:51:07,930 --> 00:51:08,600
Yeah. 
Genuine. 

1243
00:51:08,610 --> 00:51:09,660
Genuine. 
Yeah, 100%. 

1244
00:51:09,670 --> 00:51:11,870
I honestly. 
And the point was, though, I 

1245
00:51:11,880 --> 00:51:14,720
take it home and not do it. 
And I'm like, OK, cool. 

1246
00:51:14,730 --> 00:51:17,070
How many people have done that? 
They've, they've taken it home 

1247
00:51:17,080 --> 00:51:19,040
to do the marketing. 
They've logged it back on the 

1248
00:51:19,050 --> 00:51:19,780
Monday. 
Yeah. 

1249
00:51:19,790 --> 00:51:21,940
Not marked. 
And life went on so very 

1250
00:51:21,950 --> 00:51:25,110
quickly. 
I was like no, if the marking 

1251
00:51:25,160 --> 00:51:28,370
cannot get done whilst I'm in 
the building, it's not useful. 

1252
00:51:28,540 --> 00:51:30,990
I don't think markings useful. 
If you do it after the children 

1253
00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:33,790
have gone, I don't think it's 
useful at all then and it's 

1254
00:51:33,800 --> 00:51:35,750
still part of our, you know, 
still do it, still part of your 

1255
00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:38,330
job, blah blah. 
Some kids might get something 

1256
00:51:38,340 --> 00:51:41,010
out of it, but I think the time 
put into marketing, if it's 

1257
00:51:41,020 --> 00:51:44,850
after school when the children 
not in the building is so, so, 

1258
00:51:44,860 --> 00:51:48,870
so, so, so nowhere near the 
outcomes of doing the marketing.

1259
00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:51,250
Whereas live marking in the 
lesson, doing whole class 

1260
00:51:51,260 --> 00:51:53,410
feedback, talking to the 
children, that's when they make 

1261
00:51:53,420 --> 00:51:55,560
their progress. 
So I think markings pointless 

1262
00:51:55,570 --> 00:51:57,910
anyway I I'd say the. 
The younger you go, this is what

1263
00:51:57,920 --> 00:52:00,980
I've just from experience the 
younger you go down the less 

1264
00:52:01,090 --> 00:52:03,960
important marking after the 
lesson is complete to kids. 

1265
00:52:03,970 --> 00:52:06,710
Very true I think as you get 
older like I'd say with my year 

1266
00:52:06,720 --> 00:52:10,040
sixes I have actually got lots 
of kids in my class now and 

1267
00:52:10,050 --> 00:52:11,670
still not all of them. 
I still say they're they're not 

1268
00:52:11,680 --> 00:52:15,300
minority of children in in my 
year six class where they will 

1269
00:52:15,310 --> 00:52:18,420
actually properly read my 
marking and genuinely action and

1270
00:52:18,430 --> 00:52:19,660
like take a bit of feedback from
it. 

1271
00:52:19,910 --> 00:52:22,620
But I think, I still think 
that's only a few children and 

1272
00:52:22,630 --> 00:52:26,060
and they along with everyone 
else would still benefit more 

1273
00:52:26,140 --> 00:52:28,820
and if I just told them that at 
the end of them doing it 

1274
00:52:28,830 --> 00:52:30,520
immediately. 
So do you think? 

1275
00:52:31,840 --> 00:52:34,550
Yeah. 
Is it, Is it ever a net good in 

1276
00:52:34,560 --> 00:52:36,110
primary school then? 
Cause we've done a whole episode

1277
00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:37,120
about what's the point in 
making. 

1278
00:52:37,130 --> 00:52:40,090
But I I agree with you because I
do think actually in secondary 

1279
00:52:40,100 --> 00:52:43,340
school, especially towards the 
end, that is mainly how I got 

1280
00:52:43,350 --> 00:52:44,880
lots of my feedback, especially 
about essays. 

1281
00:52:44,890 --> 00:52:46,680
Yes, you're old. 
Enough to you, can't you? 

1282
00:52:46,690 --> 00:52:48,280
Can't contain all that knowledge
at once. 

1283
00:52:48,290 --> 00:52:51,610
Whereas if it's literally just 
like a kid keeps forgetting to 

1284
00:52:51,620 --> 00:52:55,120
exchange, me writing down the 
word exchange in their book with

1285
00:52:55,130 --> 00:52:57,650
a next step ends up then just 
saying what does that say? 

1286
00:52:57,750 --> 00:52:59,310
And then I go over and explain 
it anyway. 

1287
00:52:59,450 --> 00:53:01,940
By the way, yeah. 
And by the way, if they can't 

1288
00:53:01,950 --> 00:53:04,450
exchange, guess what I'm 
teaching again, Yeah. 

1289
00:53:05,390 --> 00:53:07,660
Like if it was as easy as them 
seeing the word exchange. 

1290
00:53:07,670 --> 00:53:09,310
Ohh. 
It's that when you correct 

1291
00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:12,020
capital letters, I, I, I will 
die by this, Yeah. 

1292
00:53:12,030 --> 00:53:14,660
And again, I'm an employer and 
employee. 

1293
00:53:14,670 --> 00:53:16,040
Sorry. 
And employer. 

1294
00:53:16,090 --> 00:53:17,660
I'm an employee. 
I work. 

1295
00:53:17,670 --> 00:53:21,310
It's the rules of the job. 
You've got a correct like 

1296
00:53:21,320 --> 00:53:22,870
capital letters, right? 
Hmm. 

1297
00:53:23,040 --> 00:53:24,490
I think it's. 
The biggest waste of time. 

1298
00:53:24,540 --> 00:53:27,030
Yeah, in history. 
Because those children have had 

1299
00:53:27,040 --> 00:53:29,250
capital letters corrected every 
single day. 

1300
00:53:29,300 --> 00:53:32,400
Yeah, for however long they've 
been in school and they still 

1301
00:53:32,410 --> 00:53:35,070
don't do it. 
So me writing capital letter 

1302
00:53:35,180 --> 00:53:38,130
next to their capital letter 
that they've missed will not 

1303
00:53:38,140 --> 00:53:41,450
next time mean they remember it.
Because what will happen is they

1304
00:53:41,460 --> 00:53:45,050
will just write it and miss it. 
So the best thing to do is, and 

1305
00:53:45,060 --> 00:53:48,510
this is what I do every single 
lesson I'll say to them, how do 

1306
00:53:48,520 --> 00:53:51,780
we start a sentence? 
Everyone Capital checked it. 

1307
00:53:51,830 --> 00:53:54,800
No, check it. 
OK, That's still miss it. 

1308
00:53:54,810 --> 00:53:56,540
Yeah. 
If they're still missing it 

1309
00:53:56,590 --> 00:53:59,180
after me doing that, Yeah, me 
writing in their book will do 

1310
00:53:59,230 --> 00:54:01,000
nothing. 
So I'm gonna continue to teach 

1311
00:54:01,010 --> 00:54:01,790
it. 
Have you not learned? 

1312
00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:04,850
That you have to write it in the
book no, 300 times before it 

1313
00:54:04,860 --> 00:54:06,740
works. 
You obviously got to the 200. 

1314
00:54:06,750 --> 00:54:08,940
Yeah, I got to the. 299 and I 
was like, well, it's not worked,

1315
00:54:08,950 --> 00:54:11,750
but it's like that meme of that 
guy digging to find them 

1316
00:54:11,760 --> 00:54:14,830
diamonds turns back just before 
that person is determined. 

1317
00:54:15,010 --> 00:54:18,200
That person is writing capital 
letter for the 454th time there 

1318
00:54:18,210 --> 00:54:20,900
is there remembered nice one. 
And it's weird because that kid 

1319
00:54:20,910 --> 00:54:22,650
would remembered anyway because 
all that happened in their 

1320
00:54:22,660 --> 00:54:23,850
brain. 
They went, Oh yeah, after that, 

1321
00:54:23,900 --> 00:54:26,470
Yeah. 
Ohh, Interesting. 

1322
00:54:26,540 --> 00:54:27,690
Yep. 
So. 

1323
00:54:27,700 --> 00:54:30,090
Yeah, All in all I take the 
double marking, cause the 

1324
00:54:30,100 --> 00:54:33,810
holidays I would say a very, 
very precious part of this job. 

1325
00:54:33,860 --> 00:54:35,790
Always negative about the job it
seems. 

1326
00:54:35,800 --> 00:54:38,190
Especially this like 2023, the 
strikes and stuff. 

1327
00:54:38,240 --> 00:54:40,530
Very easy to fall into that hole
the kids are. 

1328
00:54:40,540 --> 00:54:42,370
Brilliant. 
I love teaching, actually 

1329
00:54:42,380 --> 00:54:44,720
teaching so much, And the 
holidays are amazing. 

1330
00:54:44,730 --> 00:54:46,640
They're necessary as well. 
People often think of them as 

1331
00:54:46,650 --> 00:54:49,420
like a just like a extra perky 
bonus. 

1332
00:54:49,430 --> 00:54:51,370
I know they are absolutely 
necessary. 

1333
00:54:51,380 --> 00:54:55,530
I tell you what, teachers could 
not do this job without without 

1334
00:54:55,540 --> 00:54:57,820
those extended holidays. 
Do is look at the last few weeks

1335
00:54:57,830 --> 00:54:59,720
of time always on that last 
legs? 

1336
00:54:59,730 --> 00:55:01,640
Aren't we, like, exhausted? 
Yeah. 

1337
00:55:01,650 --> 00:55:03,380
Anyway, OK, you've got a game. 
I've got a little game. 

1338
00:55:03,390 --> 00:55:04,730
I. 
Need you on your phone to get 

1339
00:55:04,740 --> 00:55:06,980
timer up. 
OK, so on my phone I'm gonna 

1340
00:55:06,990 --> 00:55:09,500
have the game. 
This is a very simple game, OK? 

1341
00:55:10,230 --> 00:55:11,290
Just. 
Like a stopwatch. 

1342
00:55:11,300 --> 00:55:12,730
Just a stopwatch. 
Well, yeah, yeah. 

1343
00:55:12,740 --> 00:55:14,520
Counting down. 
OK, yeah. 

1344
00:55:14,530 --> 00:55:15,110
Sorry. 
Not stop. 

1345
00:55:15,120 --> 00:55:16,440
Watch timer. 
Right. 

1346
00:55:16,730 --> 00:55:21,720
OK, so 30 seconds if you can 
even press your button, OK. 30 

1347
00:55:21,730 --> 00:55:22,440
seconds 30. 
Seconds. 

1348
00:55:22,450 --> 00:55:24,040
I'm gonna do it three times. 
We're playing against each 

1349
00:55:24,050 --> 00:55:25,800
other, OK, Don't need to just 
actually put it down. 

1350
00:55:26,090 --> 00:55:30,200
Very simple game, yeah. 
I'm going to give a theme, a 

1351
00:55:30,210 --> 00:55:33,490
category, let's say, and then 
between us we go backwards and 

1352
00:55:33,500 --> 00:55:35,720
forward bidding of how many we 
think we can name. 

1353
00:55:35,970 --> 00:55:37,950
For example, it could be 
colours. 

1354
00:55:37,960 --> 00:55:39,550
How many colours can you name in
30 seconds? 

1355
00:55:39,560 --> 00:55:43,530
We go back and forth and how 
many do you think you could do 

1356
00:55:43,540 --> 00:55:45,860
in 30 seconds? 
10, OK. 

1357
00:55:45,870 --> 00:55:49,060
And then I might say 11. 
OK And you, if you think you can

1358
00:55:49,070 --> 00:55:53,070
do a letter 12, you say 12 or 12
and then I'll go liar. 

1359
00:55:53,270 --> 00:55:56,580
So this game's called liar. 
What Then you've been 12. 

1360
00:55:56,590 --> 00:55:59,210
OK When the other person gives 
up and says does it says Dick 

1361
00:55:59,220 --> 00:56:01,400
gone, try 12. 
If you do it, you get a point. 

1362
00:56:01,450 --> 00:56:03,140
If you fail, I get a point. 
OK, so. 

1363
00:56:03,150 --> 00:56:07,760
We're calling, calling, OK, so, 
alright, OK, so there are. 3 

1364
00:56:07,770 --> 00:56:09,540
categories here. 
It's gonna be best of three. 

1365
00:56:09,870 --> 00:56:12,950
OK? 
And the first one is nativity 

1366
00:56:12,960 --> 00:56:15,920
roles. 
Now many roles in the nativity. 

1367
00:56:16,260 --> 00:56:17,810
So how many do you think you can
do in 30 seconds? 

1368
00:56:17,820 --> 00:56:27,800
Ohh my days. 5 6. 7. 
Ohh. 

1369
00:56:30,150 --> 00:56:31,340
Eight. 
Liar. 

1370
00:56:32,190 --> 00:56:33,540
Liar. 
Alright, you gotta start the 

1371
00:56:33,550 --> 00:56:35,440
clock as soon as possible. 
You gotta keep people updated. 

1372
00:56:35,450 --> 00:56:36,800
It's gone. 
Mary. 

1373
00:56:36,850 --> 00:56:42,650
Joseph. 
Donkey King, King King, King 3 

1374
00:56:42,660 --> 00:56:47,730
Kings 20 seconds left. 
Jesus. 

1375
00:56:48,430 --> 00:56:51,410
Seven OK with only one more. 
Yeah, 15 seconds. 

1376
00:56:51,580 --> 00:56:56,710
Adrian, Gabriel Right. 
Enough preaching, Cheat one now.

1377
00:56:56,760 --> 00:56:58,890
Is there 3 kings? 
Yeah, I know where they go. 

1378
00:56:58,960 --> 00:57:00,350
King One. 
King Two King 3. 

1379

the world. 

1380
00:57:05,490 --> 00:57:07,680
It's King Charlo, baby. 
Jesus. 

1381
00:57:07,690 --> 00:57:09,320
I'm King Charles. 
Charles. 

1382
00:57:09,510 --> 00:57:11,050
OK, one note to me. 
Ready for the next one? 

1383
00:57:11,060 --> 00:57:11,420
Yeah. 
OK. 

1384
00:57:11,430 --> 00:57:16,820
OK, school subjects. 
Such. 

1385
00:57:16,830 --> 00:57:19,910
Subjects OK Lessons You teach

1414
00:58:57,620 --> 00:58:58,510
It was like the. 
Owl game. 

1415
00:58:58,520 --> 00:59:01,010

Wait 30 seconds. 
To be fair, I forgot. 

1423
00:59:18,390 --> 00:59:21,400
About the fact, I think even. 
If you knew if you had a list of

1424
00:59:21,410 --> 00:59:24,750
stuff, you'd struggle to get 30.
I mean, you were anyway reading 

1425
00:59:24,760 --> 00:59:29,460
list where you were. 
Ohh shut up Ohh.
