I have a story that makes me physically cringe whenever I think about it. At University I started dating girl who is way posh than me. came from nice family and just carried herself differently. Eventually she invited me to meet her family for the first time. whichich happened to be her dad's birthday So not only was I meeting her parents, but her entire extended family too For some reason I convinced myself they'd all judge me for the way I spoke Instead of being myself I spent the entire evening putting on a ridiculously posh voice. No I'm so upset for you. I was overpronouncing words, speaking far more formally than normal and even referring to mum and dad as mother and father Something I'd never done before or since The worst part was that once I started, I couldn't stop I started I couldn't stop. E conversation made it harder to drop the act. So I ke doubling down Worst bit, they weren't de posh I spent the entire evening talking differently to completely normal family forly no reason. Shortly the girlfriend was like, everything all right? We laugh about it now, but the next few times I saw them in my actual voice I wanted the ground to swallow me up I am. You're a genius, my friend. You're a genius. I is so funny. o my god I know you mean they like I know what you mean because do you remember that lady at that wedding? Yeah came over to you and she was like she was she was literally from Manchester And she was like trying to pretend she was trying to try to she didn't want it, She was trying to pretend she wasn't from Manchester with her mancun. basically she recognized Jamie and she was like, you look like And then she turned to her friend and was completely from Manchester. and then she turned back to me and was like Oh you look just likes out of mad. from Chelsea, that show. and I was like This person was lit. She was the most. She then also told us how she'd done a really smelly poo in the Loo and she didn't know what to do about it. and we were like This is a lot. Okay, honey give it to me hereere we go. I've got a love story for muchan now. Dear Jamie and Sophie, Fcy, congratulations on becoming parents and on this wonderful new chapter. I'm also so happy the podcast is back. It's me a weekly dose of British banone and laughter At the start of twenty twenty four, life felt incredibly heavy. I was burnt out, recovering from a breakup, struggling with mental health and feeling completely lost Something had to changed, so I quit my job and booked a six month adventure through Bali, Sydney, Costa Rica and Mexico. Come I was excited but terrified. I didn't know if travelling would hill me, but I knew I had to try. What followed became the most unforgettable journey of my life. Towards the end of my trip in Mezico I reconnected with my first love. Wha We met as teenagers at a surf competition in two thousand four. He lived in a small surfing town in Mexico. I lived in London But after our summer love story, life took us in a different direction. Then twenty years later, fate gave us another chance After returning to London, I realized that the only thing I truly wanted was him. This is amazing. This is like a literal love story. So with a hopeful heart and what was left of my savings, I packed up my life and moved to Mexico. A year and a half later we're travelling the world together and building the life we once dreamed about. I still miss London dearily but I wouldn't change a thing. Thank you for the podcast. Th all the adventures and unexpected plot twists listening to you guys every week' comforting reminder of home Oh need a pure. Also give us some places in Mexico to because because Mexico is our favorite place ever and we just never know. And also if you can let us know some like secret places that you've been traveveling that you're like theseese are the spots you got to go to because I think sometimes you look at like a trip advisor and it just gives you the place where everyone goes So Janelle and send us some photos, we want to see that is incredible. I love so incredible. Honey, I have a lovely love story as well from Dario H we go. Hey Jamie, Sophie. After listen to last week's episode and hearing Jamie's Father's Day appreciation for Mums, I felt compelled to write him because I couldn't agree more My wife gave birth to our first baby eight months ago and honestly watching her become a mother has been the most incredible thing I've ever witnessed. Before becoming parents, I thought I understood how much effort went into raising a child. I was completely wrong The way she looks the way she makes it all look so effortless is unbelievable She's up in the night before I even hear the baby cry, She somehow knows exactly what's wrong when I'm standing there completely clueless. What amazes me most is she does all of this while constantly worrying she's not doing enough. When from where I'm standing she's absolutely smashing it. My wife has made parenthood look easy, even though I know it isn't, and our baby and I are unbelievably lucky to So gorgeous. I Dar Daria. Come on. it's so true though Mums are heroes I said this to you Honey, you're a hero I know that when he poops at night and it sprays on me Do you know why? I know why it's okay because you're around the corner You're there, honey. a little whisper away. You're my safety net, you're my trampoline. You're me. You're my T, you mean the safety unit around the tramppline? You're yeah, you're my airbag our mind too, honey. Okay. I don't think I am, but you are. You are. Okay, so this is a bath story from Jenny. All right, Jenny. Hey Jamie and Sophie, I wanted to share something that feels like a miracle to us. My husband and I spent years trying for a baby Month after month brought disappointment and after countless appointments we were told that our chances of conceiving naturally were incredibly low. We decided to try IVF and poured everything we had into it emotionally, physically and financially. Sadly, our first round failed, then our second round failed too. I don't think I've ever felt heartbreak like it Eventually we reached a point where we decided we needed a break for our fertility treatments and started trying to make peace with the idea that parenthood might not happen for us. A few months later, I started feeling a little off. I nearly didn't take it as because I genually thought there was no point. To my complete shock, it was positive. Nine months later, welcomed our beautiful baby girl into the world She's turning three this year and every birthday feels extra special because we're reminded of just how close we came to never meeting her. Sometimes the best things in life really do arrive when you're almost giing up hope Oh my God, that's amazing. That is so amazing and I just think that is such a lovely story and like that is so nice for people today who are going through IVF or struggling to, you know, conceive. I just think there's so much hope in there and just don't give up hope. Thank you. Hey, listen to you lovely little people Keep honestly writing and we love you. Where can they send them, honey?

You're making me laugh in general at the moment It's like not sure why sleep depriation maybe Hey, listen, have you ever watched a like villain movie You know Okay. What it would be your best? villain laugh if you had to do it Nok haves to really like you go fast. Okay we go. this might have been laugh And Oh my go. Okay God about Wh I White, We need to get that tongue scrape on that. Honey. I've been ill this whole week. The whole time I was doing that, you were just focusing on my tongue. It's like covered in white fur. Yes, because mean No, I really need I' ill I'm very. I think that's something I think you have Candida overgrowth. I don't have Candida overgrth. It's not right, o mind Okay, there we go in. Oh h I think I won and know maybe you won. Okay. Big question on the day as well, you know we' obviously had reality TV for twenty years. Would you allow Ziggy to do reality? Would you allow Ziggy to do reality TV? If Ziggy got to eighteen years old, nineteen years old, twenty one years old, twenty years old, he said, Hey Mother father. And he was like, look, I want to go on love Island What would you say depends. like if he was like, I want to have a brand or I want to be whyan Z and like knew his career. I would try and be like, don't go on it just to get famous. steer him away unless that was like a real goal. Also like if Love Island was like it wasn't twenty twenty T 's so hard, you can't be a hypocrite. You've got to let them fly their wings. So you would let them do I can' you can't stop a child from doing anything. If he's eighteen years old, he's going do whatever the hell he wants to do. like all you're going to do is, you know, I would try and make sure he knows that if you do something, don't do it just because you want to be famous. because that's an empty vessel you're never going to fill. It's a tricky one though, right? Because if he says I want to go and do it, we can't you can't be hypocrites, right? because we did it. Right? So to say, yeah, you have to go and do it What are the big things in life that you wouldn't want him to do? go? Be mean. L I really, really, really don't want him to ever be mean. And I already am reading books. I know how I will make him not be mean. tell me. Because you just love love them. Like I think children who I don't think anyone's innately mean. I really don't. I think that people who are mean or bullies or like behave in really bad ways. I think that they've all gone through trauma or like had hard times. and I think you've got to give a child so much love. I really believe that like every human is who they are from their childhood and that is a lot of pressure on parents, but like I do think it's all about your upbringing. I think you're right You can do shitlads of therapy to like reverse things. but I think innately like apparently like if your mother loves you so much in the first two years, like you know you will always have some level of self worth. Hy snaps to that girl. Nap, this girl's been therapised. You've been therapised. So we're allow them to do reality TV, but also we're gonna make them kind the whole way through, which is just amazing. Yeah, I think you've just got to show children so much love and like just teach them like how to be kind. I also think it's really important to allow them to do things allow children, you know, that children try and be so helpful and Andft them being helpful is actually really chaotic for us. L he will, you know, my sister's baby, she's one and a half, ne two. She will like try and sweep up if my sister's sweeping up. But obviously she's going to mess up everything even more because she's two. She doesn't know. But I think you've got to allow them to do that. You've got to teach them. You can't be like, No, don't you do that. You go play with your toys, I'll tid you up because then they don't learn You are so good with that. It's like when he's eating and you're just like you allow him to like just let him get messy throw everywhere, put it all over. like you can't you've got to allow them to just do it. Otherwise they don't learn. It's so good You're quite like, No You've come back from work and he's like and your light No wipe you up first. Honey, that is the biggest lie. I'm not in my pristina family.
