Wh I've gone into situations where I'm definitely sure I'm not going to have to get my knob out But then I do we did that thing No, but I remember when for the in betweenweeners movie, the first in betweenweeners movie that was funny.

Because funny enough, you don't have to be in the peak condition to make a movie unless you're Tom Cruise and you're jumping out of planes or whatever You're fine, right usually all the films that I've been doing are usually set in someone's living room or in a restaurant we're not we're not generally playing characters who are supposed to be action heroes Yeah, we're not m sure good Yeah with that top off.

And in hindsight I'll be honest, I've thought about it a tiny amount And I stop myself from thinking about it because I go, yeah That was unnecessary. I'm not hundred percent sure what's goingone on in that situation. It was I don't I cannot find any logic in my brain. I can't find out a reason Whaty He said, u How old are you?

No, I haven't got time I've one of there's some stuff that you really would like to know that you just sort of go, I'd really like to know that but I'm at work at the moment. Yeah. And then you forget it for a few months. and then you remember it again when you're driving, and you go, right, I'll be able to check that when I get home. Yeah. Anyway, those things can go on for years, can't they? twenty six funn know, I think I think it I think it's like I feel like if I'm looking that up. I would just intrinsically feel I should be doing something better with my time Like if I I'm saying I really I would I would really I would honestly think I'm, you know, I'm lucky to the se of knowledge Yeah, but it feels like I it should be doing our. And then when you're at a pub quiz ye and it comes up, it's true And you're the fucking hero. That's true. and now I've won money Yeah, from our mates and their families Always think of the pub quiz.

I' think you've been told that a couple of times in your life. I've been told it a little. Yeah. I've been told it is sort of like comomes from nowhere it's a bit like, o fucking o, that's a good bun No, when I I didn't expect it. No when I was When did you think you first noticed? Well I my girlfriend at school told me when I was in six four. She she was said like ye Yeah goodbe Yeah, as that, thanks so much Well, I feel like j You usedually be better, I think. I was really I' had really good legs in sootball. I played football every day. I used to cycle to skull I used my thighs used to be massing. Yeah Me too, they met in the middle. they they rub Fies were insane. L I used to ye, I used to because my school was in the different towns and I got sick of getting the bus. Yeah A need to cycle for a bit Um I feel like your ass was out all the time, I would, in between of more so than anyone else. By the testical episode, I. test thought I mean you' got great testical, wasn't it? very? But by that point, I kind of thought What's happened is though Ian and Daman have basically just got a map of my body and they're like, seen, seen, seen, seen. We we were sort of a bit of a boy band, right U I often feel that sort of L maybe u maybe Simon Bird Maybe he wrote the songs. He's Gary Barlow. He's the Gary Barlow Me and Blake were Howard Jason Orange. No, I think you're doing You were very much the Mar Owen. I think maybe I was a Marco but I't I think you I think you know, I think I think you and Blake, that's not. you're more you're very much more Robbie Williams. No, none of us were Robbie Williams. None of us No Mrter Gilbert, is he Robby Willams Davis, Greg Davis. He was yeah, he was the Roby William because he went off on his own. He went off on his own fucking Yeah, I' massive. Yeah He was definitely the Robbie William. He's Robby. Yeah Well, there's a really also talking about Netflix, there's that really good take that documentary on Netflix as well I loved it. I really loved it. And I know I'm meant to be all Bit pop and fucking I did like take that I was more e seventeen. U, but I' still a privilegeed se because I've watched the document about boy bands and I actually I didn't realize like seventeen like They weren't really like with the word that everyone used at the time was manufactured. they weren't really that. They were kind of they actually sort of did just they were the anti take that at the time. But they were relatively, I don't know I've just been taken in by this documentary, but they seem like relatively light just emerged spontanously. They kind of put themselves together like they they weren't kind of think something manufactured in the nineties is different to what it Yeah It's not just Simon Cell putting something together now. Yeah Yeah. I think there is I think even then when something was manufactured in the nineties, there was still something organic about it. Even take that, there was still there was still, I know and what's amazing about that orrganic origin of Gary Barlow with these gpes and say what you like about Gary Barlow and say like his chewing gum pop or whatever The compositions and the pop songs absolutely brilliant. They're great, great songs. It's same Robbery Williams as well. I was a huge Robberby Williams fan. I used to be ashamed to be a Robby Williams fan. It was I had me and two of my mates Jacka Mulla and we were we were obsessed with Escapology, that album. Absolutely incredible swwing when you're winning. That's a I know they're all covers but they performed brilliantly And and we used to have to keep it on the download. We used to be like down't tell anyone And And it also is a credit to Robbie Willie? I don't want to bang on about He is a bit of a hero of mine. I think he's a bit been through the mill and he's a bit of a tortured soul and he's come out the other end A bit worse for where And I know a few people like that, to be honest, especially when they've been young and they've got all incredible fame. It's hard to come out there. There's no way intact. I dont don't if I think you'd be more of a psychopath If you didn't come out. I agree. If it doesn't, if you if you become a celebrity And And you' cool with it. Yeah and it's like, yeah, I should always have been this. Yeah. L there's something weird about you. Yeah I think if it doesn't fuck you up, like you're probably it I can't not normal person I can't imagine being bigiggest star is Robbie Williams, like a certain point. There was a time when it was the millennium and he had the song. We spoke well Millennium againain to link it back up YKK on the. Yeah sure. to maybe to do that. But but at the time the millennium, it was almost like 'cause he had the song. It wasmost like he was in charge of the millennium. So every time it was like, when it was a millennium, it was like he was going Millennia it's a millenni. It was like it was like he somehow, was like, it'sobb Williams presents Literally the end of a thousand years. Imagine That's pretty amazing to kind of get your name onto the millennium. But also imagine this Joe, right? I know Zoom had the pandemic And in hindsight and I watched the again on Netlix, the Roby Williams documentary And it reminded me of a lot of stuff And in hindsight, when you think back U how attacked and ridiculed Robbie Williams was like I was say I had to keep on the download. I was a Robbie Williams fan I D't tell anyone I really D enjoy Robbery Williams music But to be constantly told in the sun and the newspapers and stuff like that, Robbert Williams is an idiot. If you like him, you're an idiot Look at this tit Oh anyia tososser and all this but still be the biggest fucking still sell all the records, still biggest live act evenven though the media is telling everyone Don't be into Robbie Williams, you shouldn't be into, but still be on top Yeah it reached levels that no that people could only dream of Yeah amazing. Yeah. absolutely incredible. Yeah. I've got a fact about Robbie Williams which I've just double checked. He beat Oasis' Nbworth record He also That's true. He also has the record for the most expensive record deal in British. eighty million music history Yeahah. And some say it could be even higher than that. Even higher. Yeah, thenen we got Rotox yeah. I I love. I do I do kind of love rude box. I think listen, Irv think in that stage of his career he's well entitled to do a bit of rude box. He's allowed to go wherever he wants. He's proved himself.ast he was genuinely trying to do something that I mean done before. Sure. It didn't really work. He tried. he was he was I enjoy reotbookx. Welloster. Lost I I would say I think if you I think it started ironically and now there's a genuine love that. I don't agree with all the lyrics, but I think. I think it's it's one of the lyrics if you rude boox me. P Rud box all your family too or something like that. It's essentrial over those lines. Robbie Williams is also from near where I'm from as well. He can have as many blips as he wants, that boy because he's done what he's done. Have you seen No one can take that away? Have you seen his artwork that he's doing now? No, I've not gain. into fiscal. How is is it But again, he can do wh wherever he wants, as far as I'm concerned. Escapology is a really great album. There's no filler in it Every song's brilliant a And I hope I hope he tells himself that every once in a while because I feel I don't know. I feel it's a bravado I think deep down he u needs someone every now and again to go, you're doing all right, Robby. My favourite line of that documentary was where he said I wanted to write Karma pololice, but actually I'd written Karma Chameleon Right. And that's a, that's funny. Yeah. But be many people like I I'm a big George Orwell fan. and George Orwell always wanted to be a novelist and he wanted to be like James Joyce, and he wanted to write Dubliners. And and his novels are quite shit to be honest. But he's this fantastic journalist, like probably the best journalist of the twentieth century. And he didn't really value it. He was like I wantan to do that. I, there's another one fine There there you go to write a novel Fine, there's another one. Leave me alone And I mean, animal farm and n for, I don't include them. they're not really novels, I don't think Robbie Williams legend, Roby if you're listening I really like you anent out, Robb We like, could we do something together? Do want to be on a f fact based podcast? Do you want to be on a f fact based podcast? Imagine that we don't have guests. I'd have fucking Robby Williams on in a harby trying to address him just real quick, quick bit and And I'd give him a hug as well. I'd say you you can wear whatever you want your pants. whverind Yeah you doing Oh if you could wear the little pants with a line on them Pertainly those, yeah. That'd be great.

She refused to become his mistress and kept dodging his advances instead of giving name Giving in gven Yeah ye. She made him wait and wait and wait Turns out it worked too well Henry got so obsessed. They ended up dumping his first wife. breaking away from the Catholic Church and creating the Church of England. Yeah I mean was all because she wouldn't fucking just put it out a little bit.

That's the point of the We're gonna to get that sort ofing in a minute, because yeah ye, yeah, that was non fucking mental what that was. I don't ever know. I don't ever ever heard I don't know how to unwrap that one. Yeah. The other stuff that you said was I could deal with. Yeah have the feisty ones? the Fisty ones. feisty ones The feisty ones. Cornetto liquors? Corneto liquors. Brillian is good Brilliant Um You could have a table just called Swansea. The field trip No Swansea. No that's what that's the shit downown ararm episode, right? Yeah Swansea Caravan campus with the Caravan Club Cub Caravan Caravan Cub I just Cavan Cub I think Cub of Y. What was the school called? Did we ever did we ever Well it was called Rudge Park, wasn't it? W it called Rodge Park? Rodge Park is the name of the secondary school course it was Yeah No Yeah we ye Yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah. yeah, ye, it was It was rice liip high Riceip high. Yeah. yeah. That's just Rudge Park to me. And also it was quite funny because we filmed there for series one and then they wouldn't let us Bat film for series two Is that right? Apparently ye. I feel like we did the second series there Mbe they just And then the third series we then have to go to a disused army barracks There was definitely one thing where we weren't allowed to film Well, there was yeah we couldn't get the skull. Yeah. Well, I think because when we when we started filming there, it was a brand new skull And they were they were grandfathering in the the years. So half the school was pretty much empty Yeah. I think they only had up to year nine or something like that in the school. So the rest of the school was was completely empty for us to know We could And we did. We made a whole TV show whilst the school was working and all those kids were still there and things like that. I mean, it's amazing for a school to have Like my school was absolutely stuffed to the gun. There was no space. like kids were everywhere. There was like demountable classrooms outside. It was just like, you couldn't there was there would have be no space We hundreds kids. wouldn't they wouldn't have been like a room. They couldn't have given So to be able yeah, to be able to make a TV show. But we did we did then end up building the common room. in a in a disused army barrt. Yeah it did. And it was there was no heating and it was freezing And again, it was a theme throughout the im alwaysways fucking cold. Always freezing Always fucking cold. I think there's a thing with comedy where like you're generally not that clothed. I felt like there's you don't have Yeah, there's nothing funny about clothes, is it ee if you want You want some gags, you I in the fest ofiv all I'd go in I know it's not the in between, but it was Ian directing it. Yeah I'd go in day after day and the only thing on my costume rail He's obsess with you being naked,n' he? The only thing I c is his pair of pink pants and I like A fucks He is observed again. Blake Blake walking around in these speedos. They're just thought. You know what, man, the more I think about those toys. They're just interested in young men. The more I think about Yeah. Morris and Beasley. Yeah. I think they just wanted to see our bums.. got great bums. What can I say? Well, speak for yourself, Joe Wellounds great we've as we've already discovered Right, we better get back to this u Oh, the sausage thing. The sausage thing. The sausage thing that sounded insane. I've never heard of anything. You've never heard this before. ever heard of it. What is a sausage about burying a sausage the day before your wedding to ensure you get nice weather. So you get good weather. Yeah, obviously that's nonsense Where does that come from I can't even where to say that was a question that was a question. Where is tradition? It comes from the Middle Ages. It comes from fucking Yeah Do you know what I mean? if you rub a crow, shit on your head, you'll stop being bald It comes from that sort of nonsense. Listen, I would say this, do it because it sounds like a bit of fun. and a great tradition. Also it might be a euphemism You know, burying the old sausage. in the ground. Around Around your nuptials. That was a unbelievable. But for want of the better word, but There's nothing There's nothing there that screams to me. that there is any kind of way Burying a sausage cooked or uncooked? No, but I don't think're going to ask that. We're being asked we're being asked, whereere does it come from No, I thought she said No, where does it come? Oh, she's saying, where' did it come from? Where does it come from? Oh, I don't I've got no idea. Yeah. I thought she said and I thought she said, is it true Well I think she would like both of the answers. And shouldould we put a cooked or uncooked oook? Yes. I thought that was what we were trying to the bottom. Do w want to know if it's cooked or uncooked?. I think I think she wants as information as possible. Well have you never heard never heard this before in my life at all. I really haven't Can you reverse engineer some sort of logic to make it feel right? I can't go I can't get my brain's not going anywhere with that. there's no I mean, there is definitely no connection between barying a sausage to the weather There's no way that you can decide on the weather by burying a sausage That's just That's all that there is there. That's that's the end of that discussion. However, I would say It sounds like a fun thing to do and that they should both do it because it sounds like a laugh and they'll remember doing it And um whether or not it it has any a bearing on the webather is is le I don't think it matters I am I think it just sounds like a fun story and a good tradition to Day I would say do it, basically as I'm saying I'm thinking that mean it works, it works. There you go. What do I know Well, it's a I mean, it's a kind of, it feels like sort of It's like a small offering to the That's right, That's what it feels like. It feels like it's a small offering of food have a sausage. So I would say cook it. because I think if I was a god 'd I'd want it cge. Yeah. I suppose if I was a god, I could probably cook it. If you really wanted to if you really wanted, yeah, if it's that sort of thing And you're and it's a superstition and you want the marriage to go well or whatnot or the weather to be good, I don't know. Stick it in a ban as well. Yeah give him a hot dog. Oion mustards. Yeah some onions. Crispy onions. Yeah. Okay So this yeah, so now yeah, this is this is this is better. Yeah. Yeah.ice U And if you do do it, can you take a picture and send it to us please before you bury it Because we'd like to see that. Absolutely ye Yeah, I'd like to say it, but yeah, I would say ye again, not a euphemism. We don't want to see pictures of. No, no. We want pictures to probably win it. Well, I do, You don't give my personal number out by okay. All right Yeah. so I would say yeah I'd say cook it Little line of ketchup. Yeah. st it in a little warmed. Finger roll, pop it in her Yeah. Unbelievable Um Yeah, a little They are cool fingers, aren't they? Yeah Why would it why would it you know what? I reckon the root of these traditions is probably that Maybe once upon a time someone lost a load of meat or sausages. like they fell down a you know things you know things fall down ravines. Yeah, right Whoops. They're in a wheelbarrow. B big wheelbarow of sausages. Oh God. It's all fallen down a ravine. It's a disaster, but the next day The sun's out. So people go, make the best of it. A bit like I think sometimes superstition is a bit like if something bad happens, but people go, oh well something good might happen instead. because you say it's actually so actually it's good to break a mug or something like a wedding you break I think I would say, Liny May It's something to do with it not being U fect I think well, you know hopefull the French had that phrase good is the enemy of perfect or perfect is the enemy of good. So in order there's a lot of pressure on a wedding day for it to be perfect. So I think something so it's kind of already fucked. L so do something where it's already a mess so maybe like break the seal a little bit. Break the seal. Yeahah, exactly. Have the groom put on odd socks or something. Right. Do you know what I mean? have this this all gets more sense in the sausage than burying a sausage to me. Well, the old toxks's fine as well. But I know what I know youre saying I think it's coincidental. It's coincidident. think it probably happen one. I think a sausage got burriied sausage got bures. It could happen to any. Yeah. a sausage gets.' say like Back in the end of the day, they had to ban and they had to sort and livestock and stuff like in London and cities and stuff like that because the place fucking stanks that much They got buried. You'd have to you'd have to travel stuff in. You'd have to butcher outside of the city bring the meat in to sell. Yeah. you would, yeah. Yeah. Yeahah. So you bring it in You might lose a sausage. It might get buried got narr day Where is it? I know find it now. No, but you guys fucking old. But at least the sun's out. Yeah. I don't I think it's coincididental. I don't think I've I've honestly never heard you heard that, Katina No. I think it's something to do with not making not making the day perfect or it's to do with you know, the rain god likes sausage. so give it' either an offering it's either Butough enough out their personal life But U That could be their vows Rain god li sausage. Rain god lies sausage And then she could say M me got sausage And then he can say, Sun's out guns out And then and then just do that and you're away. But And to be fair, if they use buns, suns out buns out. Sounds out buns out buns. Suns out buns out into the ground sausage in Suns out So there you go. M. That's how it is. muzzled off to all them sudenly, well done and God bless them. God bless them. What I'm I'm gonna to say it's not a fact, Joe. It's not a fact, but where does it come from I think we're saying either it's either it's either a kind of offering to show that you're giving a little bit of the food. Maybe you'd bury a bit of food so the harvest would be good the next year You know, the pig harvest the, you know, the big day where you' You know, the pigs have grown enough and I guess so. Should throw over the quueen?hould get the quueen's conscern? anyyay? why is? I'm saying not fact. Why is it? Okay. So what I will say you seem to understand this You seem to have had you've known the answer for ages I you got your laptop, you was just saying, have you not heard that? Yes. so I became aware of this last year because my friend got married and they did this and that was the first time I had heard of this. Maybe that started it. I'm not saying that's what I was. I'm not saying that's what. What' the weather like? And it was nice. However, what I will say is there was rain, but for the actual ceremony itself It was sunny and they were getting married outside as well. So o is a bit spooky. It is a bit spooky. But I will say is towards the end of the ceremony it did start to rain again. Yeah. our ceremony is done the sausages it deleted it's. That's. I mean, it's I would say if that That is a completely watertight explanation of. I think maybe There's no way the sausage didn't work based on that. It rained twice, suly once. there's absolutely no way that that sausage didn't work. I wonder whether it was a chipolata or not a full sausage. It might be was it or Oh yeah, maybe it was I mean, can you use a vegan sausage? or It depends You spoke about. It depends what the temperature was Yeah Yeah like I say, these things can exactly and it was chilly the night before. I do say one day you got a sausage The nextail Chol are theyre going on. you're thinking what's going on here? G help me out? Happens to the best of us Um so There is not an awful lot of I would say research on this, as you may be surprised to hear But it's believed to kind of come from folklore and has got more popularity recently due to that online trends. So I think someone has made it popular online basically and it's had a bit of a resurgence in terms of I think I' do. I think a new trend Now that I've heard that, I think it sounds like a laugh. It sounds like a fun thing to do The day before the wedding It sounds like fun. Exactly. So there's a couple of things that people have pondered on whereher the roots are. One of them is that it is a offering to the weather gods. R. But what I will say is the tradition also is rooted in raw sauses rather than cooked. So it's suggested here that they are raw. Okay And they don't cook it then don''t get everything that we said. And also it doesn't just have to be one sausage in the whole packet is what hass been said. There's also They have packets of sausages? Well, whole full string. Yeah ye. full string. There's also some research online to say it has origins in German speaking regions such as Austa and Bavaria and it's Germanic. Germanic And it's cultural and religious. Sausages are symbols of prosperity, festivity and fertility and tied closely to weddings. Y. So burying a sausage became associated with warding off rain and inviting sunshine and turning a food item into a superstition., isn't it? Yeah. should we should we sum it up? So we're saying u It's probably I'm saying it I'll say it off here. Yeah. You ready, Joe? Yeah It's a load of old Bllocks. but it might be a fun thing for you two to do before before the b of your wedding. Do it in the evening before your wedding. Yeah and Who knows the weather might be good? and then you can go let us know how the weather turns out. November November as well. November Exactly you need it. The odds are when was that? I married in November. It is a November wedding in Scotland and it doesn't ra. Weather nice? It was clear There was no rain Not like I remember. Mbe it was actually. I genuly can't remember at all was If it's in if it's in the north of England In November, And it doesn't rain thenen we will say, I'll start. it's facted up. Yeah Yeah In fact This is oppunity You guys do it. You will you can you can be the verbatum. We're saying there's no research being done on it. Bury yourself see this is the research. Yeah. there's no I'd apply for some funding somewhere. honestly, like there's S tove the sausage. And also just follow the science So we can find out Maybe just trying to follow the science. becausecause we could go and It's saved they bury their sausage and And it's a sunny day the next day. You can come back and go It does work. That's fact can we can agree on that Say if we bur the sausage and it rains the next day, N only do we say, Oh It's not fact We can say Bury a sausage, wheel rightite. reat We can go the other way. This will be this will finally We'll know one way or the other. Yeah, basically Yeah. So let sausage does something. We got we got a w definite it definitely doesn't do nothing. It's gonna do something. does something. Yeah. everyverybody knows the sausage does something you can't by a sausage in the ground think there aren't going to be repercussions. Exactly. Gee got you got to pay for it one way or the other. You're playing God. Yeah. I mean, you shouldn't it's fucked up Well, that's what I'm saying. Th guys could do it for us. They'd professions obviously Wear gloves, wear an eye mask. but get it buried. Yeah wear goggles. For heaven's sake, just keep it legal and be safe. U so Joe Uh is It's the time. We can't put it off anymore. It's for your fact we're talking about Anne Boleyn. We are we're talking about the anniversary of Anne Bolen's death and you So C about how she because she was quite resistant to Henry's wing. He probably thought he'd just get whver he wanted because he was king and actually U She went Yeah. and actually she went, I don't want those scrubs. She did yeah, ye. She literally said And he went fine. She said I'll He said, I'll show you. Yeah. And so to some extent maybe there is probably yeah there is some truth int the idea that basically the Church of England emerged is kind of she Because Jom Bloke wanted to get his leg out. She wouldn't marry him.nt She wouldn't well, I mean, I suppose if we were being Basically about it, she wouldn't have sex with him unless they were married. He couldnt marry her because he had this abolutely he was like in a church that wouldn't let him marry her. So he said, fine'll do my own church. It's quite extraordinary that The Church of England sort of came resistance As a result of that, yeah U Anyway U Let's u I would probably I should probably say that There was a big thing going on already Oh ye, no there was already prot. There was already a stema that. There was already like Luther. So he had I' got to have my boy's back. I've got to have Henry's back for a bit Oh no yeah, no, it wasn't no. There were they were There were There was an alternative faith emerging and available. and basically, so the Catholic Church basically saidays Who was that gazer there? Martin Luther. Yeah,ight. was He basically thought about it for Aes and Ases and ages and eventually he said. See the blood thing to Yeah he did alough I think it was more like it was his university and he had to put it out there because it was just where you put out what you were going to lecture on. He it but essenti, yes.. wasn't it made into a book or something? whereere he had an evening, a dinner party or something and he was just was Apparently it's hilarious and he was just properly slagging off the pope and stuff like this. And it was so funny. it was like a fucking Jimy carar routotpe. It was a standV. Y ye. It was a special was Martin Luther special. Well he he he he basically he came to the conclusion that he felt he had kind of communicated directly with God and basically the whole thing was like, you don't need all these other humans in between you and God. It's just like he'll just kind of so you don't need the whole apparatus to the church. that all isn't necessary. sort of m sense And I know many brought up a Catholic Ch. Well many people many even even even when I was a kid, I was like Yeah, pageantry and the I liked it. I enjoyed it. Yeah I don't know how Luther was basically just like, no, it's just me and God. And then were they were gonna execute him, but they didn't execute him in the end. and then he became he basically became so famous that theyort of couldn't execute him So yes, there was an alternative faith available, but I think there's everything would suggest that Henry VII was not at all interested in this alternative faith. I don't think that was his motive no. No. no Wh she was in Foxy. She sounds like she was for a bloke to do all this quite a look at I bet she was She has a great attitude? Do you know what I mean? Atitude. I'm not gonna say something else then Yeah No she was she was't she like know because of the attatitude. Yeah Incredible negotiator. Absolutely unbelievable She'd be such good like a football agent? She was like, No, not good enough. Yeah. No, not good enough. Yeah yeah. We'll do something We'll get another church. Yeah And he's like, Ohh, she said, get another church. What does that mean? Can we do that? And then all these folkes were like, Yeah, well we can. but I mean, it's who is this guy Cell Thomas Crell Initially it was Cardinal Wolsey and then he then He then, um kind of fell out of favor and then Cromwell replaced him. Right. The thing that Cromwell did Where' Cromwell up for it? Well wasn't it was? was like No, you can't do that And Cromwell was like, Oh, I can see my way. Cromwell basically sortought it out The amblein Right And then when Henry then moved on and got I' Yeah. Um to be f. I bet he felt like a right hit. I think in the end Well if Hillary Mantel's books are any guide and I think they maybe actually perhaps are In the end, Cromwell fell foul of the Bolins who were actually very powerful French family and He He engineered the Having helped Anneolen in to power Or yes, was it is power He then helped to engineer her destruction and then having done that, he basically made enemies for life in the Berlins and then later on when Henry had moved on yet again after Jane Semour had died and he Cromwell tried to arrange a marriage to somebody called Anne of Cleves, who basically Henry didn't think was pretty, essentially. And I think almost because of that, like Cromwell and then he'd also Cromwell was a blowborn man. so he didn't really have big alliances with the the old English aristocracy, who are all Catholic, by the way, or all the big families on the continent like the Berlin. So actually once He was a little bit like one of those guys in Trump's court where like all they've got is that Trump likes them. Like if he stops liking them, they're fucked, they're done. L they need to leave town Tumera was a bit like that. L once Henry had turned his back, againgain, this is just what Hilary Mantel says. Yeah. onnce Henry had got fed up with him, Cromwer was basically fucked because he didn't have any other Yeah that was it. He only had one guy. Yeah had one guy. See, listen, I love all this. Yeah. I don't think. I'm about do my fact though. Anone that once to listen to a podcast from Simon and Jay from the in betweenween I appreciate that. Yeah I fucking love all that man. Yeah good because it just humanises stuff. When you're Th those books are alsom so good, like unbelievable. all the Tras When you're primary school, you're learning about the tuders and stuff. it can be really heavy. Yeah. and it can be like, oh, he was just a king and who whenever he got fed up, he was just like off with his head off Yeah. I know it's just confusing it's just a confusing barrage of random What's fascinating about that not about all those. And like All of even the tudors and all that and stuff like well, especially the tudors, they they came they came into power because of because of off and tested Their right to the throne or whatever. How precarious they And how they had to walk a line constantly. because because when you're grow up you learn about old kings and queens, you're like, oh well they were just sort of like, Oh, is I am the next person to God. Is my right by God to be? So you kind No one believed that. No, no one believed that. There was like loads of powerful people that were just like very much like today. Yeah. They'll be like, we'll have you in if you if you if if we'll have you in Yeah. All this of God stuff was added vote if that was added in once you'd killed the other bloke and taken all vote So this president will back this president because they're going to give us some tax relief and stuff like that. And it was the same of Kings' and quQeens Absolly And there could be and if they didn't if they took it too far. Yeah. they would they. It was absolutely. R It reminds me I think what was is it if you go for the king you better not miss. Butkay Anyway, look, I better do my sorry J. look I'm to talk about that I would just say anyway I would recommend the various there's three books beginning Wall. Can you text them tight? Yeah, they're fantastic. You bought one of them for me once actually Did I actually fucking read it? No, You're brillant. I really appreciate it he brought me this Third one probably. Anyway. so Now Let's and Bolin to my fact So bowling in So that's not my fact. So my fact is about This is my fact is about the Bowim editor out, placelease Thatices right Yeah that was. For me, it was like A Bleyn. Oh, Anne Bo. Oh An Boyn. Oh, Am Ble. Oh I say o Oh yees, so, yes, my version doesn't make any sense. Now let's An walk in to my factat. Yeah. Right. Now let's Anole in to my f. Does that make it any better? it does make it does It was unbelieable It was unbelieable. It was unbelievable. I don't think I'm the originator of that, but thank you No it's some 's is fantastic Um So don't don't get ramped in call Um So the bowling ground, ye was the home of West Semi Night Football Club. Yeah. Why is it called the building ground? Well, it's because there was a house nearby known as Bowling Castle. although also known as Green Street House So sort of that's where the Green Street elite come from. That's right And It was reported that Henry VIII had kind of wooed Amberolen there. like she'd been staying there and he'd gone there and tried to tried to woo her So and that's how we get to the Bowling ground. That's how we get to the Bowling Ground. So I do add I'd always wondered that Well they go. So I mean, I think it's probably one of those things where like Maybe she wasn't really there or maybe I mean, There's so many pubs in this country called the Royal Oak because they're like King Charles hidden an oak tree near here when he was on the run and And you're like, this guy must have done nothing but hiding oak trees because of the number of these pubs that there are But to fair there aren't that many grounds the bonet are't any? No, no, no none No, unfortunately. No I think there's many a West Ham fan of that loved I always called it Upton Park. Upton Park. yeah.

Catherine Howard was basically the daughter of Duke of Norfolk, I think, who was one of these big English heriss.
