Podcasts, there are millions of them.
Some might say too many.
I have one already.
I don't have any because there are enough.
Politics, business, sport, you name it.
There's a podcast about it, and they all ask the big questions and cover the hot topics of the day.
But nobody is covering the most important topic of all.
Why is that?
Are they scared?
Too afraid of being censored by the man?
Possibly, but not us.
We're here to ask the only question that matters.
We'll try and say it at the same time, Max.
What did you do yesterday?
What did you do yesterday?
What did you do yesterday?
That's it.
All we're interested in is what the guests got up to yesterday, nothing more.
Day before yesterday, Max?
Nope.
The greatest and most interesting day of your life?
Unless it was yesterday, we don't want to know about it.
I'm Max Rushton.
And I'm David O'Daherty.
Welcome to What Did You Do Yesterday?
Hello and welcome to today's episode of What Did You Do Yesterday?
My name's Max Rushdon.
Alongside me, David O'Doherty.
And on today's episode, David, we speak to one of my...
I can't do it now.
Rosie Jones.
Yeah, Rosie Jones.
Rosie's one of the great comedians working today.
She just comes at it from a slightly different angle to any other comedian that I know.
It is always a joy to hang out with her.
And this is a day unlike any others.
I mean, I don't want to trail it by saying there's a lot of motorway services because I don't think that necessarily will make people want to listen.
No, but if you really have a thing for
Reading Services Eastbound, this is the episode for you.
She co-wrote and stars in Pushers, which is all on the Channel 4 app
thing.
All right, granddad.
And her tour, what's that tour called, Dave?
Her tour is called, I can't tell what she's saying.
Just bloody go and see.
She gives her o-cho harsh review
here, but
everything she does is wonderful.
Sorry, for the tape.
As will come become apparent, she's in a canteen at a premier inn.
Oh, yeah.
And for the first 10 to 15 minutes, it's quite noisy around her.
But I think everybody eventually gets so annoyed with her banging on about what she did yesterday that it does go silent.
So, if you're finding the ambient noise of phones ringing and people sort of banging pots for a little bit, that does subside.
You deal with it pretty well.
Yeah, I think so.
I think so.
But it's always good to take the listeners with you.
That's my experience.
Yes.
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's a bit of radio expertise there, just thrown in there.
You want to signpost everything and then they can't
carry on.
Did yesterday.
Rosie Jones welcome to what did you do yesterday hello
okay
let me have it straight I know DOD
I love for David
speak to my boss
why is that too much
because I know there's a book coming here.
Yeah, but it's not your book to
deal with.
It's Max's book.
Oh, right, okay.
Max.
I don't know you.
The love
that I have for DOD
is
missing
for you.
I understand.
I understand.
But by the end of this podcast, I reckon you might love me more than you love Dave.
Oh, God.
Okay, we have an hour
to distribute you all the love
I have.
And
you know what?
You were two
white, straight, non-disabled men.
So
you are
at a base
level,
very
hard to look.
Question one.
You sound like you're in a school canteen, Jonesy.
We obviously
don't care about today, only yesterday, but just where do we find you today?
Well,
it is
because
I am currently on top.
So I am not
in a school canteen.
I am
in a
premiere in
because
I am living the highlight
I am
in
ragstown
but the wifi
of
course
it didn't get to my hotel
room
I wouldn't
get to my hotel room
because
I am
ten doors
away
from the Wi-Fi
router
so
I am now
here
in the county
where
I get Wi-Fi
good,
but I
also
get a lot of
lovely, lovely ladies
watching up breakfast.
They are going to get one half of this
and they possibly won't even know it's a podcast recording.
They'll just think you, for some reason, are talking to your mother and telling her every single thing that you did yesterday.
And that intrigues me as to what they think.
To be fair, that is not on you, Sherwood.
Andrea Jones is a lovely, lovely lady,
but she is an incredibly
nosy bitch.
So
it wouldn't be surprising.
We have had guests on before who've said that Rosie's mum is a nosy bitch.
I wasn't sure if we could bring it up this soon into the podcast, but it's good that it's out there.
Oh, yeah, she'll be listening right now.
That's how nosy she is.
Give us some space, Andrea.
Fuck's sake.
No more,
Andrew.
Yeah, I'm
Also, Andrea, just be aware that you've been infringing the copyright of this podcast by making Rosie go through what you did yesterday in the past.
So we will be serving legal letters to Andrea Jones straight after we finish talking to you.
It's it okay
for when she does it.
She wears a hat
and she puts on her silly Irish accent.
She's looked into
parody law
and now things were broken.
Jones, Andrea, stop impersonating me.
This is getting too much.
Okay, come on, let's cut to the chase here.
Come on, David.
Come on.
Let's get down to serious business before Andrea rings on that landline again.
Rosie, what time did you wake up yesterday?
Oh, I had a lion
because
I had a busy day the day before.
So I did
not wake up until
11
a.m.
Oh my god.
Wow, that is low performance waking up time.
Oh my God.
Tom Rosenthal got up at midnight the previous day.
No.
So,
oh my god, that boy needs to talk.
I strongly agree with that.
You're on tour?
Do you wake up in a hotel at 11?
See, 11's late to wake up at a hotel.
You get knocked out on the door?
No.
So I
always
go for midday
checkouts.
It is
a game
changer
and I really
feel
like I started my day
on a high
11 a.m.
I'm rested.
I'm relaxed.
I've had my first lying
in about
a month.
I'm feeling good
until I remember
where
I am.
Where are you?
I am in a travel lodge
at Reading
Services.
Wow, after no mentions of Reading for a year and a half, we've now had Reading services mentioned twice in quick succession.
Alison Spittle was on the airbridge at Reading Services, marveling at the skyline of Reading.
Can you confirm?
Like she had an emotional moment.
Yeah, did you see her?
Had she gone back when you opened your curtains?
Was the first thing you saw?
Alison Spittle just crying as she looked at some chimneys.
No,
I unfortunately did not see Alice and Spittle,
mainly because
I was too busy
quatching
all my life choices
that had led to me
to waking
up in a travel lodge in Redding services.
And
this
might be your most boring episode yet and that it says there's spoiler alert
but I think 80%
of my entire day
happened at
Reading services
hang on people have been waiting for the Reading services transit to Maidstone this is the episode that people have been waiting waiting for.
This is why this podcast was designed in the first place.
I'm excited.
It's like a really shit version of the terminal.
You know, the Tom Hanks film, isn't it?
Your whole life is at Reading Services.
Wow.
I'm excited.
I'm excited.
It's 11.
Do I get out of bed immediately?
No.
No, no, no.
I am currently playing
a game
called
Tasty
Travels.
Tasty Travels, right?
So it's an iPhone game.
What the hell happens in Tasty Travels?
It's my
entire life right now.
All I got to do
is to link
two
of the same
kind.
So for example,
if I link
two
prawns,
I will
make a bigger prawn.
Where's the travel aspect to this?
I thought you'd be like, you travel to Portugal where you link a prawn with an Australian shrimp.
You know what I mean?
Something like that.
Oh no.
That is very
deceptive
because there's absolutely no travelling
at all.
It's all about
linking up.
You can link up a football with another
football
and of course
that will make a football
of course.
Right.
It says here, open your phone and join us on a journey around the culinary world.
Tasty travels.
Is that what we're on?
In tasty travels, you get to travel the world while experiencing local cuisines, learning to make various specialty dishes, and sharing with friends from all corners of the globe, including Reading Services.
The most exciting part, you can combine two identical ingredients to create new, exquisite dishes, reveling in the joy of cooking, it says.
So, for example, if it was like ready, steady, cook, and all I had was two footballs to feed someone, I could combine them and make a glove out of them.
Is that what you're telling me?
Perfect.
So,
I think that synopsis is interesting
because it did
start
very
food
based
but now I'm on level 100
we're going into the football world
we're going into
the bottle world
so it's all about
choosing what you are making
and I am
so sorry
to say that I played Taste Travels
for about
45
minutes.
Okay.
I have a question.
If you combine two prawns, you get a giant prawn.
If you combine the giant prawn with another prawn, do you get an even bigger prawn?
You see, he writes for The Guardian.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Thank you
for asking
their
questions
everyone wants to hear.
It really
depends.
So
if I remember correctly,
you go
little
prawn,
middle and prawn,
bigger prawn,
chicken.
That feels like it's not a sequence.
You only connect.
They're never getting that.
I thought it was going to go like scorpion.
No, maybe prawn, then scorpion, then like lobster in terms of like shelled, earwiggy, clawed animals, something like that.
No, there's a lot of...
Oh,
they know they've covered the prawn space.
Someone should have been sworn.
and there's a meeting room where they gone.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Big round of applause.
That person gets a raise.
They're the CEO.
Prawn, prawn, prawn.
Ring the bell.
Ring the bell.
Ding, ding, ding.
So, Jonesy, you do this for 45 minutes lying in the Reading Services Travel Lodge bed.
I do
and I'm also
listening to Catherine Ryan's pole cats yeah
as I do this
and
she's a very clever lady
she's
talking about
putting her flat
on sale
did
I
temporarily
think
shall I buy cat from Ryan's
flat
and then I thought
I can't buy cat from Ryan's flat
I'm in a travel lodge at Reading services
yeah but what if you're such an eccentric billionaire you have bought the entire travel lodge at Reading Services and you sleep in a different room every night?
You just love travel.
You love the freesome, the excitement of people going to other parts of the country.
How much
do you think it will cost?
I think I could pick it up for a million pounds.
It would be intriguing when you go to settle your bill when you're checking out of the travel travel lodge and you just have like a black sack with money on it and you dump it on the counter.
Do you have any extras, Rosie?
Yes, one extra.
I'm buying the whole place and all of you.
It's just not when you're scrolling through right move.
You just go house, house, house, travel renting services and you show it to your wife and you go, Jamie, I didn't ask you because I knew you'd want it, but this is what we've got.
But
I don't see a downside
to buying the travel logic reading services
because of first of all
24-7
party.
Yeah,
well, of sorts.
Of sorts.
Secondly,
as a comedian,
you've always had comedy friends
who won't place to
stay
ideally at
yeah at red in services it's true i mean it does have good links to the rest of the country doesn't probably got a wild bean cafe as well nearby oh well we'll get into that
and now we're
familiar

okay Rosie, it's 11:45.
You've done your tasty travels.
If you haven't already, it's time to seize the day.
Yeah.
I'm not really seasoning anything yet apart from
the
soap
slash shampoo slash condition
books
in the shower.
Are you stealing it?
I am eating
famously, there's enough nutrition in it.
If you don't get the breakfast you drink from the general-purpose cleaning detergent product, no, I'm getting the quirky shower ever.
I'm putting the
soap
slash shampoo slash conditioner
everywhere.
I'm using the shots made from my hair
to wash my amput.
It's a very
bubbly
situation,
but I feel a lot cleaner
than I did
in my taste date travels
So when I use that multi-product, when my hair is longer, it boofs out and I look like one Wendeline who Wallace from Wallace and Grommet, his love interest,
whereby it just boofs everything to this enormous.
So then I basically have to wear a woolly hat for the day to bring it back down again.
Does this have the same effect on your beautiful flaxen locks, Rosie?
Not really,
because
I then
let it dry
in the air
and as you can see it's mulking okay.
Yes, so much so that it seems like it's what's the slogan?
I'm worth it.
Maybe I'm worth it.
Except the product in question is the multi-purpose bathroom/slash body slash hair cleaner available in travel lodges.
We haven't really had as detailed the process of showering since Adam Buxton, and he did it cold.
I'm wondering, oh, yeah, I'm interested in the temperature you're going for here.
I'm a hot shower guy, it's nicer, but Adam Buxton's more successful.
I am hot, you're hot, of course.
Yeah, I
sometimes
about
once a year
I try a cold one,
and then I go,
This is amazing!
I should do this
every
single day.
And then I do remember that I like
myself.
So, yeah,
hot,
hot,
hot told away.
The hotter,
the better.
Okay, good.
This isn't me.
Well, it will sound like me.
But I have a friend
who gets sexually aroused
by
hot
things.
and then specially
in the shower
he will
challenge himself
to put it on
as hot
as
possible
to the point that it will
gold
his skin because he finds the feeling of burning
himself
very sexy.
Wow.
I mean, it's possible my co-presenter here met his wife on a volcano in south america
so it's possible you now associate great heat with a sort of sexy horniness then too we won't participate in anything carnal unless we're on a lava flow
when you met your wife on the volcano
were you sexually aroused i mean i was more than she was i think it's fair to say yeah i wouldn't say aroused.
Like, I wasn't like.
We don't have time to go into Rosie, but he spent several years just coincidentally turning up and where she was.
You know, she would be in Aspen, Colorado, and he would just be like sipping a latte in a local cafe.
Fancy meeting you here, you know, that kind of a thing.
So it took a while.
That is exactly what I thought when I met you.
That was an
absolute perfect
of the highest
order.
Absolutely, yeah.
That's how I'm known.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Western, it's midday.
You've got checkout.
You're washed, you're dressed.
It's time to hit the services, I presume.
You're starving.
You're starving.
Yeah, I'm checking now.
Can I call them from
bit of a traveler?
barely
it doesn't
feel very foilery
does it
so i meet my tall manager
at the
foyer
of the grand
travel lodge
and we look at each other and we go
we need to work
and we need
coffee
pumped into our faints
immediately
so we
walk about ten steps
into
reading services oh here we go highway to the danger zone here we go and you know what it says small services
but it's got
all the things
i need
it's a got a prot oh yeah it's got a ms
it's got a culture a double
h smith
and
a mcdonald's
so you the outfit.
Yeah, it'd be good if it had one real curveball shop.
You know, for no reason, it has like a Timpsons or something like that that no one has been to for the last five years.
Just sitting there.
Where do you go of this list?
I'm going to predict.
Where's Rosie going?
Costa.
Straight to her.
She's more prep than Costa.
Well, I'll give you a clue.
I get my food
from one place
and I get my coffee
from another.
No one is going food from Costa.
Like no one in the last 200 years has got food from Costa unless it was the only thing.
So it's got to be coffee from Costa, food from Pratt, unless I've missed some of the other ones.
No, it's food from MS.
You're getting food from MS.
But what I need to know is, do you then get in trouble when?
Because it's a fair judgment on pratt when you sit down and start eating you know the salmon and cream cheese sandwich from Marx and Spencer's
so DOD
you are right
I went
through from Minnets
coffee from pratt yeah because
cut food from copster
is
absolutely fucking dog shit.
This podcast is brought to you by Costa.
Get the new armoured latte.
Just $3.99 from Reading Westbound.
There's a rumor it tastes like dog shit, but we don't know where that rumour started.
And this
comes
from a woman who had just
washed her entire
hair and body body
with warm products.
Do you think that they
say to themselves in Pratt, it's the iconic Rosie Jones, we will not come down on her like a ton of bricks for violating the main rule of Pratt?
Do you think you're leveraging your celebrity status in Reading services here?
So that's
why Redding services are so great
because
they don't really
have
tables
for the restaurants.
Open plan.
It's just an open plan
communal area.
Got it.
They don't give a shit what you're reading.
This is interesting.
From 2017, so obviously it's a little while ago.
The BBC, no less, England's best and worst motorway service stations named the M4's Reading Services Westbound takes the crown for the country's best stop-off with a customer satisfaction score of 100%.
100%!
You're the westbound or the eastbound, Rosie?
You were the best one there is.
So we were
going
from Britstow
to Maitstow.
Oh, no, that's eastbound, isn't So
oh
for
yeah, you blew it.
You had such a chance.
Imagine 100%.
That means no one has ever had any problem.
No one's ever had a bad day.
No one has ever taken like a leaky poo there.
Nothing bad has ever happened in the westbound.
You were in the eastbound.
Oh, damn it.
That's why I was so sad.
Okay, so we open our laptop we presumably have free wiffy there wait a minute because there's a table situation
so the exact
services we're talking about
is a moto
moto
yeah i love a moto
for their
work
proofed.
Oh, wow.
They kind of
spaces
covered.
We're plugged
and it feels
quite private.
We
get there and we go.
Hopefully
we can get a proof.
Now
all five are taken
by
what can
only be described as
the
same
woman
thrown
five times
okay i'm gonna predict so it's a lady with a blonde bob in a karen type unidlow coloured puffer jacket a pencil skirt what do you think yeah and they've all got a newspaper
they've all got their daily mail yes and they're all
absolutely seeing
at their horses
you'd think one of them would be like rosie you need to keep writing your iconic comedy please have my little space i'm just getting outraged by whatever the Daily Mail is outraged by at the moment.
It's the boats, it's the small boats.
It's the mail on the small boats.
Now, I'm gonna
blow your mind and break your heart
in one
small sentence.
Ready?
Some people
in the world
don't give a shit about me.
I have never met any of these people, so I find there are five.
There are five people that don't give a shit, and they all look the same, and they're lined up in booths at the Moto Eastbound.
So
we sit down at a much
baby
table,
and Ash
is talking to me,
but all I am thinking is
eyes on the booth,
eyes on
the
booth,
and as soon as
one of the clones gets up,
the cerebral palsy in my body
goes away
and you
have
not seen a person
sprint into a booth
quicker
and we're there
we're in the booth
i'm using all the pull sockets
i'm charging my laptop
I'm charging my phone.
I'm charging my headphones ready for you boys thank you today
beautiful sound I'm eating my wonder
sandwich
I'm eating my olives I'm drinking my coffee
I'm a happy lady It's almost a perfect Daily Mail story would be
so-called woke comedian Rosie Jones.
I saw her sprinting across Reading services to steal a table from someone else.
Hmm.
Able-bodied.
I never
heard that.
I would say, come get me.
Come
get me.
Okay.
So we've had a coffee, we've had a sandwich, we've chatted to Ash.
Where are we going now?
I would imagine you'd be on the way to Maidston, but you want to stay in the services a little longer.
This is such rookie behavior by Max Rosie.
You don't want to get to Maidstone pre-5pm.
Is that a rule of comedians or just a rule of Maidstone?
D.O.D.,
you are so right.
We look
in.
We get more cock foods.
I'm gonna rush through this a bit because
would you believe it's even
more boring
than my tasty travels
45
minutes?
But I do emails,
I do my receipts,
I edit every video that I'm doing
advertising the national
look to rea yeah I do
a
Instagram post
of photos
taken on me where I look
very beautiful great surprise surprise
she's also the director of my foundation.
Oh, Rosie Jones Foundation.
I'm a good
lady
and don't you ever forget.
So
we had a big talk about
our
next
steps and what we're doing.
Yeah, I feel
like we were there for about three
hours.
I guess once you've got a booth, you've got a booth, right?
Max,
we had a booth.
If you could have
said to me with the utmost confidence,
in Maidstone,
you will get a booth.
We would have gone to Maidstone.
Yes, get that.
I get that.
But you can't take that, Greg.
I'm not sure if there was.
Firstly, congratulations.
You are the first person with a foundation that we have spoken to.
Nish Kumar does not, to the best of my knowledge, have one.
Sarah Pasco
absolutely not.
The David Odi foundation.
If I did have one, like, what would it be?
It would be like tiny keyboards.
It would be for bicycle repair, wouldn't it?
Yeah.
But that's a bike shop.
That's not really a foundation.
You'd call it a foundation.
I think maybe tiny keyboards bring them to like war-torn areas.
And my van comes over the hill, and people are like, at last, food.
And then I just hand out tiny keyboards and they're like, go fuck yourself.
Yeah.
The whole of sub-Saharan Africa pressing demo.
All pressing demo.
Maybe Maybe you can make tiny edible
keyboards.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, see.
Oh, God.
What's the foundation do?
So it helps
people with serable pulses with a focus on
mental health.
So if you got a physical
detail,
you're much more likely
to suffer with your mental health.
So for example,
we just
donated a large chunk of money
to a company
that pairs disabled people
with
who have
the same disability
as
them
which is a huge
game changer
because
I've had a lot of non-disabled therapists
and without that common ground
it's so hard to talk about
yeah what you need to talk about
and this
company
works a lot with the nhs
but naturally
the waiting lists at the nhs
are
so long
that with our
help
they've been able to clear the waiting list
and it means all the people
with CP
who needed
immediate help.
Yeah.
I get in it.
Fucking hell.
Jeez.
What am I I'm just playing a little key.
It's okay, David.
The thing is, David, I used to do a lot of charity work and then I had children and I am too tired to help anyone, even myself.
So when they're 25 years old, I'll go back to doing something good.
The Max Rushton Foundation just tries to pair Max Rushton with baristas that know how to make his a really annoying three-quarter double flat white
important chord.
That's brilliant, Rosie.
Yeah, well done, Rosie.
So, what time are we moving out of Reading Services?
So, me
and
are very
neurospicy.
When we get locked into work
nothing
happens around
us
so I think we
initially said
we'll get on the road at half two
okay and we got on the road at
four o'clock.
Oh, yes,
so then we
had
missed
the time for food
at
Maitstone.
Oh shit, so then we are on the motorway
and we stop off at another
service
This is good.
And
I cannot remember which one it was.
Come on.
Could you tell me about how far into the journey it was?
Because I'm on Google Maps here.
So you're going to be going
A329
past Slough and then you're going to take the M25 and you're probably going to go through Red Hill, Seven Oaks on your way to Maidstone.
I'm just trying to wonder where
we were about
15
minutes away from Maidstone.
Okay, right.
I can really now.
This is like hunted.
15 minutes from Maidstone.
Right now, I'm just going to have to go services.
What did the services have in it, Jonesy?
Was it a similar setup with all these great options and shared tables?
So they said to why we stop there
because it had a Leon.
Okay.
I love a Leon.
Okay, so to our international listeners, how do we describe a Leon?
It's like a Michelin-starred takeaway where even the boxes are fancy.
Yeah, like
if McDonald's
sold
real
food.
Yes.
If McDonald's had a string quartet in the corner, yeah, and a server came over and said, I trust everything is delicious, for me, that's Leon.
Yeah, pure class.
Okay, I think I have it, guys.
I think you were at Clacket Lane eastbound.
There is a Leon.
It only gets a 3.2.
I was at Clacket Lane.
Yes!
As soon as you said it, I was
off
caution
for that blanket lane.
That's the closest I've ever felt to being in the FBI, I think.
Do you know what?
It felt good.
It felt really good.
Do you get the meatballs?
Do you have meatballs in a box?
No, I get the chicken nuggets.
Oh, they're good nuggets.
They are very
good.
Also,
sorry, can I say aside now?
that you probably
notice
that it's very
quiet now
and that is because
every single member of the premiere and
kitchen team
have gone home
and for the last
hour
they've been cleaning around to me,
giving me
such
dirty looks
when everyone
mentioned
the travel local cut.
I was trying to think what they would think you were doing, and I've decided we're police investigators.
You know what I mean?
We're trying to figure out how watertight your alibi is for some murder you definitely committed yesterday.
But because of the cuts, we do everything remotely now.
It's a bit of a problem.
Then we say, if we think you're guilty, we say, now could you just come in?
Because we need to imprison you for 25 years.
Okay, now, so are we straight to the theater in Maidstone?
Yes, Coach.
Now
I am
in the North Gates
on the go.
And then we get there to the Hayst hastel
theatre.
It's a beautiful
venue.
We go straight onto stage
and sort out sound
and sort out lighting
and it's all looking
good.
I thought for a second you were just this was so exciting you were literally just running on stage with half a Leon chicken nugget and then just going good evening maidstone and just toss the rest into the crowd and go here we are
amazing have a nugget
What a tagline that would be.
It's the title of the show.
Why is the show called Have a Nugget, You Fuckers?
And then Jodze walks out and like confetti, they start to drop from the ceiling.
That people have made stood all on the floor just gobbling up Leon nuggets.
yes no so we're talking about
half six
right now yeah and the show starts at seven
oh shit you've got a seven o'clock show no sorry
half seven okay half seven okay right how do we fill that lost hour then between Sanchez and uh ladies and gentlemen Rosie Jones Naturally,
it's about trash talking.
Fellow comedian
Daniel Kitson.
So you're engaging with...
Is it via voice message or is it by a text?
Via text.
Because the night before
I was in Britstall
Old Vic
and I get a text
at half six
from Mitch Day Kitchen
saying
I am where you were
last
night.
And I said,
I am not fucking telling you where I was
last night.
Where do you think
I was
last night?
It was
a very
aggressive
hello.
Yeah.
But I'm just annoyed
that I didn't know that he would be there
because
I would have
left
a present for him.
what do you mean are we talking about a poo in a bag chelsey surely not oh not in a bag yeah and a ziploc no i came one of the blue plastic bag
oh that's sweet that is sweet yeah
get good money for them on ebay there's a lot of them knocking around but yeah
Tito's handmade vodka is America's favorite vodka for a reason.
From the first legal distillery in Texas, Tito's is six times distilled till it's just right and naturally gluten-free, making it a high-quality spirit that mixes with just about anything.
From the smoothest martinis to the best Bloody Mary's.
Tito's is known for giving back, teaming up with nonprofits to serve its communities and do good for dogs.
Make your next cocktail with Tito's, distilled and bottled by Fifth Generation Inc., Austin, Texas.
40% alcohol by volume, savor responsibly.
So, we trash talk kits and do you have a tourist support or are you doing the whole show yourself?
I'm out there
raw dogging.
Roar dogging Nightston.
Why not?
It's true.
Because, I mean, if you have a support, they effectively take care of the raw vibes.
And you just come on like Ed Gamble in the second half to the great cheers and roars.
But the real ones go out off the top, Jonesy.
Yes, they your protection.
they're your barrier.
Without
them, me and you're
all dogging
all over the place.
And how is it?
Are they excited to see you?
How are the people?
I've never been to Maidstone.
I would imagine they're hardy coastal folk, probably the waft of herring smokers in the room, you know?
I would say sorry, Maidston,
but they are a pure
six out of ten
they are
smiling
they are laughing
are they laughing
a bit delayed
sure
have I got to tell them to
pick up their act
and to be better.
Yes.
Great.
Do I say, I know I'm amazing.
So
do a fucking better job.
Yeah.
They love that.
Audiences famously love that.
Yeah.
You're again, part motivator.
That's what you are as well.
Do they improve?
Will Daniel Kitson when because he's obviously just following you around the country now?
Yeah.
They'll be ready for him.
Yeah,
Daniel Kitson will have a lovely night tonight.
And
after that, I did a lovely meeting and greet.
Apart from
the last
lady
show.
I do ate me and greet every night and people
are so lovely
so polite
and then you always
get one
who always
means to watch oh no but they hang
back
because
they go
I think
I am funny and I think
me and Rosie will be friends.
Oh no.
The problem with that is
they are not funny and we will not be friends.
Come on, what did she say?
So this lady
I would have said a guest
was in her mid to late
50s
and in their show
I eat
half a banana okay of course I do absolutely so this
lady
had
gone onto stage
and stole my banana
and told to me that she was
taking it home
to freeze it.
Oh gosh, this is getting sinister now.
Because
my lips
have all been
over there beneath.
Wow.
And when I asked her if she wanted a photo
with me,
she said
no
because
having a photo with you
when I don't even know you
is
weird.
Oh god.
So which I said,
but
stealing a banana
and freezing it because
my mouth has
touched it.
That's not weird.
worried.
Yeah.
And she said,
exactly.
It reminds me a bit of a friend of mine is a comedian.
And once I was in a pub, someone asked him for a photo, and then four people wanted to be in a photo.
And another guy was in the queue.
And he waited.
till it was his turn and he just said to my friend, I don't have a fucking clue who you are and just went back,
which is like as if my friend had been like, All right, line up, everyone.
I'll do some photos.
Yeah, you know, there's a desire to put people in their places, I think, lest you think you're getting a bit above yourself.
Yeah.
Do you think when you next play Maidstone, she'll be back and she'll have a frozen banana?
Do you wonder about the banana?
Oh,
so on
the 10-minute drive to the primary area,
where you
see me now.
Beautiful.
Me and Ash
started talking about
what's in store
for that banana.
But as well as that, she
did tell me that she would like to kiss me
with tongues
and she
asked me if i wanted to
feel
her breath oh my
which
i politely
declined
but i think that will give you a little
insight to
what will
happen to that banana?
Because you know, you sometimes think about like a cat and the luck of where they're born and who their owners are or whatever.
And maybe most bananas probably live a good
life up until being consumed.
There are better places to be a banana.
Some bananas get open too early.
They're a bit hard.
Some are perfectly right, some go moldy.
But this banana is like this banana has been captured and almost feel we need to rescue the banana.
Yeah, pray for the banana.
Yeah, yeah.
Maybe we could get a SWAT team to try.
I feel like that banana
needs a lot of
flavour.
I think so.
If it ever makes it out.
It will be like that room with Barack Obama and Madeline Albright and when they're getting bin Laden, won't they?
We've got the banana, but they're rescuing the banana.
It's slightly, the analogy doesn't quite work.
But you take my point.
So you're trying to say shoot the banana and throw it in the sea, though.
Shoot the banana and say, it was better that we shot the the banana, that it went through what we know it was gonna go through.
So we return, or we don't return, we embark on a new journey to this fresh Premier Inn, which is, in terms of room cost, about 15 quid more than a travel lodge.
Do you immediately feel that extra 15 pounds of luxury?
I do,
I do, but now we're tying everything
into a
lovely bow
because
I immediately realize
that I cannot get away from
my room.
So I go,
Fuck
how am I gonna do the podcast
tomorrow?
So I worry about that slightly
yes but then i realize
you know what i haven't played
for about ten hours
oh yeah we know let's make two bananas a giant banana tasty travel
travels
and then because
i wanted to
go into
the night
thinking about you too,
I
listened to the Helen Bower
trapped on public transport that episode.
So traumatic.
I thought it would calm me down, but it reminded me how much of a fucking idiot she is.
do we doze off to sleep while playing tasty travels a bit of a book anything do we have a drink before we go to bed just raw dog raw dog the night just dry
raw dog
tasty travels
you two
the fucking public transport idiot
and then at a point I fall asleep.
There's a day on the road.
I like it because it's not the most glamorous, like, you know, Rob Beckett's day on the road opens with like being picked up by his driver, you know, and all of this.
And whereas this is for the real ones right here.
Let's say
for anyone who goes, oh my god, Tomo Bay amazing.
No,
it is
six hours in Redding services
and you're chilly burning banana.
Take it sexually
sorry,
Rosie Jones.
Thank you very much for telling us what you did yesterday.
I love you, boys.
Max.
Yeah.
I love
Oh, there we go.
Love you, Rosie.
What a great episode.
David, the fact that
you think you've had enough service station.
Yeah.
And then
she pulls right into another one.
And that is just, you know, also
in the league table of hotels, the fact that that she has to come to the canteen, that doesn't reflect well.
I wouldn't say I'm a Premierian loyalist.
Right.
Ultra.
You're not an ultra.
No, I have always tried to stay in better hotels than Premier Inns.
But I would definitely have had the travel lodge at a lower status.
And look at her now, just yelling in the canteen, much to the bafflement, I would imagine, of the staff.
And does all that and also has a foundation.
And
neither of us have a foundation.
do we need to start a what did you do yesterday foundation
we need to do help people with their yesterdays yeah exactly we help people with their yesterdays and when anyone gets in touch we say it's already happened there's nothing we can do
but we'll fundraise like crazy make millions stop living at the past
let the past be the past said an eight-year-old okay if you'd like to get in touch with the podcast we do love your feedback it's especially useful for the midweek mayhem episodes because without them it it's not a lot of content.

And
thanks to the ladies who blocked the posh seats in the eastbound Reading services because, you know, we got a real window into Rosie's life from that.
Everything is service in it for life.
Yes!
