I think my worst was dropping a £3000 guitar onto a £5000 guitar. Oops.

Unsurprisingly it was made by the same guy that made that Gregg Wallace faux documentary about human meat a couple of years back.

This was the first proper time I'd seen James Blunt out of his normal context. I reckon if I didn't know who he was and Celebrity Traitors was the first time I'd ever encountered him, it would take me a million guesses to get to "singer/songwriter". Never mind "one of the biggest selling albums in UK chart history".

His 2006 live stand up DVD is well worth a watch. Well, I say a watch, it's worth flicking through - it's one of the worst examples of stand up comedy I've ever seen. It's actually quite a sight to behold. It has to been seen to be believed. No wonder he knocked it on the head for nearly 20 years. At the end, there's even what I presume is a 10-minute spec-episode of a TV show he was working on, made to show to TV execs that (shock horror) never got picked up. Its about a Hollywood stuntman who has to move back to northern England after the work dries up. Equally as awful and I don't think the bit where he blacks up is the worst part. How this guy ever had a career in the first place is baffling.

Yeah, buy them just after they've come out of the oven.

Like the old Shooting Stars question: true or false: Ronnie Wood?

It's a decent album. I've got a couple of his. If you're into UK garage and house then Todd Edwards sampled from this record quite a bit.

I was well into Ghostbusters when I was a kid, but the sequel scared the shit out of me. I was absolutely terrified of the pink ooze coming out of the taps as well as the painting coming to life and going into it.

I guess I don't need to really bother watching it anymore now.

Make your mind up.

Just finished Slow Horses series 6. What a show that is, by the way.

“Please give us a 5-star rating on your podcatcher of choice” Makes it sound like they’re Pokemon rather than podcasts.

Giant Haystacks lasted in WCW for just over a month as Loch Ness. He left due to health issues rather than getting binned but it was still a bit of a flash in the pan appearance. Completely forgot that Cain Velasquez had a match against Brock Lesnar for the WWE title. I remember there being a bit of buzz around him after he had a surprisingly decent showing in a AAA match a couple of months earlier. After looking it up I didn't realise he had actually signed a WWE contract but got let go as part of the cuts during COVID.

We’ve always called them Jackpots. And there’s been numerous times I’ve complained that my “men’s menty B is through the roof”.

Yeah, fuck all those people with mobility issues who can’t peel a boiled egg or an orange. I tell my nan all the time that I couldn’t give less of a fuck about her arthritic hands or that she can’t grip a knife properly to chop an onion.
