I feel rough as old boots . I don't feel great. I don't feel great. I would like to say you get used to it. I keep asking everyone, like my sister's like, oh you just get used to it. I'm like, but do you? Like when doesn't it just get worse how target you get. Can I just say the funniest thing that ever happened to Sophie? Soph was so exhausted, so exhausted. We both were because we were up all night, Ziggy was just having like not sleeping that well, so it was complet ely and utterly tiring. And so he was like, look, I need a massage. That's what I need. I need to have the most relaxing massage because I just need it. And I was like, don't worry, honey. I'm going to organize for you to have a massage. So lovely person came , he set up the bed. Sophie was like so excited to have this wonderful massage. She didn't have a clue what's going on. She had so excited to have this wonderful massage. He laid down the thing. It was like, oh my god. I started playing like massage music, everything that I was like, Sophie, you have the best time. You enjoy this. She's like, great. She laid down. And the man was like, You ready? She's like, ready. And she put her arms over the top. And as she did that she stro she stroked the masseuse's penis yeah on the way down and said for the whole massage she just laid there completely still thinking oh my god I've just stroked his penis I groped his his dick I'm not kidding you my arms were there I didn't put my arms down what's your massage down by your side. But what happened was I thought he wanted to get to my legs, so I like moved what's was I moved my arm out. So it literally looked like I was grabbing his cock. And I just moved it out and he didn't move away. So I then thought, well I can't move away because I need to act like I don't know what I've grabbed. So I just kept it there for a minute and then I slowly twisted it back. So the whole massage I was rigid with my eyes open. Is that the most embarrassing thing that's happened to you? Um maybe. No. What? I don't know. What is the most embarrassing thing that's ever happened to you? What's the most embarrassing thing that's ever happened to you? I've I told you the time the most embarrassing that's ever happened to me in my entire life when I landed on the old lady? Have I never told you this? No. Oh my god. What about when you slept with that old lady? And she wrote I had a good night in in her lipstick on the mirror. She did, yeah. She did. How old was she? She was fifty nine. And how old were you? Twenty four. He said that only ri he woke up and he thought, oh my god, I had a really weird dream. I slept with said old lady. I was like, no, it can't be right. But he really remembered. You know old people's skin is just very soft. It's very soft. And and not cold. They're not caught corpse. It was cold. She it's just firm. No, not elastic y. It was elastic. It's saggy . Anyway, he thought, no, it must have been a a a n nightmare. Like there's no one in my bed anyway who goes to brush his teeth. For her as well, I imagine. In the in the mirror it said in red lipstick, had a great night with you, said old lady. That wasn't the story I was gonna share. So I'm glad you share that. No, that is true story. But this is no, the what happened to me was this is I was in Oxas City Center and I was playing, it was uh it was my birthday, and we were going to LaserQuest. If anyone remembers LaserQuest, I loved LaserQuest. Man, LaserQuest was the gre greatatestest.. The I can't lie, I hated it . Why did you just I don't know? How can you hate LaserQuest? I hated bowling and I hated LaserQuest, and I just can't bear that anyone used to do those parties. What did you enjoy? I don't know. I'm worried that there was something wrong with me. I just really couldn't understand why people like to run around shooting people. It was tiring, it was difficult, it was dark, it was just not fun. Nothing about it was fun. All the laserQuesters out there are gonna come for you right now. LaserQuest is the greatest thing. I would bring back LaserQuest as a business. LaserQuest is still around. I don't think it is. And if it is, we're going on a on a on a on a work trip. LaserQuest is still around, of course it is. I'm gonna go on laser quest and take it too far. But people get down, Josh, get down on the ground. Anyway, this is what happened. We're in Oxford City Centre and we're going to laser quest because it was my birthday. And we were playing catch with a rugby ball in like the square there. And one of these sort of council or someone came over and said to us, You've got to stop playing that 'cause it's dangerous because you're gonna break something or h injure someone. And he walked away and we're like, ah, whatever. And my friend Archie said, Go long, go long. So he got it like an American football and threw it to me. And I ran and jumped up, caught it, and landed on an old lady and broke her hip. And I was like, Oh , I hate you. I was like, Oh my god, and everyone rushed round and we had to call the ambulance. And it was the most mortifying experience. I don't think you should put that out there. That poor old lady, she should have paid a head replacement. She was totally fine. Should have had to have had a hip replacement. I don't know if we broke a heads of the f I don't know if maybe I exaggerated. I don't know if we broke her hip, but she was injured. I know what my worst experience is. It's just brought it back. It's really, really brought it back. Let's go. Come on, give it to me. Okay . It doesn't sound embarrassing, but like when I tell you I still have this I probably was about thirteen and I still lie in bed and shiver at the thought of it. And I actually feel sad. I feel sad about it because it wasn't that embarrassing. Okay, so we were on the beach in Spain . It's not embarrassing. But it cut me deep. Okay, and this boy that I'd fancied so much ever since I was so little was like, you know, there with his cool hair and he was so hot and sexy and he said, Can you give me a massage she I've told you this yeah and and I gave him a massage it's not embarrassing at all but I can't tell you it still hurts me this day my mum used to ask me to give her massages when she was younger but she looked for her shoulders and she used to be like no much harder like she liked really getting in the grit I'm not my mum like slave labour and we have children but anyway so I thought when you give a massage you have to like like literally be likeike because that's what she told me. So I massaged this boy on the beach, and I'm 14, 13 years old. I fancy him so much, and I'm like, thinking he's gonna be like, you're amazing at massing a, th and he's like, oh no! And in Spanish, was saying to everyone, like, oh my god, like as O was the Hulk. He was like that horrible girl. She's hurt me. He was like, oh, get off. And to this day, I could cry thinking about it. I was mortified . I was like, that's why I thought myself as well . What was his name? Gonzalo. It was Gonzalo. You know he follows me, so I feel a bit embarrassed to say these things 'cause what if he like looks at the podcast? You were 13, I think he's gonna be fine. I don't think he's gonna I think he's married. I think he's married and he's totally totally over the hill. No, okay, those are the two most embarrassing things. But sleep deprivation has really kicked in for us as well, hasn't it? It has been like to the point, guys , where we where we don't even know what we're doing. This is how bad our sleep deprivation has been. How hallucinating we have become. How are you speaking English right now? Is it just me? Not really. But this is how bad it's been. Sophie invited Sophie brought, we did it in stages for everyone to come to meet Ziggy, right? So we had Sophie's like, our family come, and then my friends and Sophie friends came over. And Sophie, Sophie was so sleep-deprived, didn't know what was going on that, she couldn't remember her friends' names. I said, Guys, do you want a cup of tea? And they were like, Yeah, I'm obviously holding Ziggy. He's like a week old. And I'm like, Jamie needs a cup of tea. And I I couldn't. It couldn't come to me. And they were there for about four hours and like about twenty minutes before they left. I just been sat there thinking, What their names? And then bing, you came in. I know them since I was about five. Like I I it they their names came in. Their names I couldn't understand and then I was so I couldn't enjoy the conversation, I couldn't even communicate because I was just like, oh no, it's just like something wrong with my brain. Like what's happened? I don't know. Have I got an illness. One of her friends. One of our friends, I said, does anyone want a cup of tea? And I said, Yeah, I'll have one. I said, Oh we've got lap sang sushang. And she went, Oh, I love them. we went. Sophie went. Sorry, do you know what La Shang La Sang Sushang is? And she went, yes, those little fluffy white dogs. I love that so much. She thought I was gonna boil a dog. No, she was like she ran, oh god . What? Why did she say uh our brains have totally like disappeared slow, slow as anything? Not witty, not fun, not sharp, not these things. But I think what happens is that it slowly comes back. I do think that it's more to do with hor the women's hormones as well. Like everyone says baby brain, but I think there is something. Like the brain's slow, like it's very, very slow. Completely. And I I've definitely honey, because I'm in the same boat-ish as you . Oh yeah. I uh a little bit. No, we're both tired for sure. A l and also I think that yes, I totally agree with you. I think mums, without a doubt, they take the bulk of everything. 100% they do. But also, the the dads, like it the only way to describe it is like you're constantly driving down the motorway the whole time, driving a car, and the motorway's not stopping. You basically the the start gun is gone, boom, and then you're constantly on the race. That's what it is. Then the races are stopping, which is and it's the most beautiful race. The scenery is amazing. It's like full of love. It's summer the whole time. It's the greatest th ing in the world, but it is tiring. And so we're tired. We're tired, sister. Tired sister. Sophie said to me today, she was like she was a she was like, I'm starting my period, so be warned the next couple days are gonna be rough for you. And I was like, you would you said to me it's gonna be war for the next two days. The period of when you've just had a baby is It can't be that bad. It's not that bad. Well I'm just trying to shut you up because you're so sensitive. I'm like, oh God. Am I really that sensitive? Well you're so sensitive. But the more I'm not really that sensitive. The more tired you get, yeah. And like I said, you don't acknowledge you're tired. So like you won't go to bed early, even if your son's asleep, like you won't, you'll just stay up gaming. I know I know gaming and gaming in just a blacked-out room with your tiny little computer and your PlayStation. Like there's no tiny little room that I said to you. And what happens when you do all that gaming and you become so tired is that you become incredibly sensitive, very sensitive, very, very hot and very emotional. Hot to handle. We started off by having an argument this morning, guys, just so everyone can um no like to me I didn't I didn't have any argument I I So can I just explain like to me that's really not an argument like I am not annoyed at all, I am tired, and you are a hundred miles per hour in the morning and ex pecting me to be really happy. So when you go to me over and over again, you're right, you okay this m what's wrong? So if I annoyed you and I'm like, Uh then you've annoyed me because you haven't annoyed me but I'm just hard and I don't want to open my mouth. No, no, because this is I'm So then I'm gonna say shh this is It's like you know when people are like, Are you okay? Are you okay? And then you just start crying. You're like, Well I was okay, but now I'm in floods of tears because you keep asking me if I'm fucking o What's a girl to do in the morning when they've not slept a wink? And I've got you shitting in my ear. Shitting. Chit chip chipping away. I literally so be this morning. I came back really late last night from working and I walk into our bedroom and sofas our poor little baby, poor little Zig isn't very well at the moment. No, he's just got a cold. He's got a cold, but he's he's snuffly and he's sweet and poor little thing and so and he's sleeping in another room. So Sophie's like, look, I really think I need to co-sleep with him tonight. And I was like, Of course honey, let's co- you co-sleep with him. And so I come into the bedroom, the whole duvet is stripped off. Yeah, you've got to co-sleep safely. Yeah, it's all stripped off. There's just a little blanket on Sophie's side. And she's like No pillows. No pillows. She's like, are you gonna are you gonna sleep in the bed with me? And I went, Well on just on nothing. She was like, but you can find another bed. I was like, brilliant. So I go upstairs to see if there's our bed. The other bed's not made. So I'm like, I'll probably just sleep on the floor. I I reckon she was like, Okay , so it's Ziggy, sofie in the bed. In this , there was so much on the room. There was a lot of room, but I then go downstairs, sleep on the sofa. That's what happens. I then wake up this morning and I go upstairs to like come see you in the room. I can't believe you didn't see you didn't take a picture. It was the sweetest thing I've ever seen. But that's what I mean. That's what upsets me. How didn't take a picture of me and my son. I can't woke up that moment forever. And that's what you should have done. Okay. Because he was they were so sweet. They were just next to it. It was the most adorable thing I've ever seen. I was like, oh my god, I'll just leave them. I was like, this is so brilliant. Anyway, so it goes, huh? Hello morning. I was like, morning, honey. She was like, can I have 30 more minutes? I was like, of course. I sweep our little baby up in my arms. I take him downstairs. I go and feed him. I'm like feeding him. Wow, lovely. I then do for 30 minutes while I had him for the whole night. I feed him and haven't had an ounce of sleep. I feed him. Oh, Ziggy, this is so lovely. Then Sof comes down, Sophie takes him, I wash up all the bottles, stuff of this. Then Sof turns to me and goes, You don't even help. And I was like, but I just washed up all the bottles. Jamie, you had him for 20 minutes exactly. I gave him to you at 650. I came down at 710. And you handed him straight to me which I won and then you go on your phone. No replied to text and that he hadn't had his food and he has he was had a pooy nappy. Listen you are the best mum. So I'm gonna put it out there, honey. You're the the greatest mum I've ever seen in my entire life. No, you can't I really, I really, I really thought it was like okay, fine. I let you when I was like two weeks, Ziggy was two weeks old called me mama, but now at this point it's not okay. Why not? You can't be calling me mama. I love it. I'm gonna call you mama . Yeah, I'm gonna call you mama for ages. No, you but you can't. I'm gonna call you mama. You can't do that. So when we're having sex, you're gonna be like, come on, mama sometimes you call me mum seat and I'm like that's really too far for me because that's a little too far like your mom. That's a little too far. Alright honey listen I'll tell you what we're tired we're exhausted shall we go into listeners messages? Let's go into listeners messages .

Okay, give me one, honey, go. Okay, this is from Anonymous. Hi, Sophie and Jamie. Welcome back. And congratulations to you both on the birth of lovely Ziggy. I wanted to write in to tell you about how the birth of my baby boy didn't go quite to plan. As a first time mum, I was very anxious about labour and I spent a lot of time researching ways to make myself feel more relaxed and comfortable. One piece of advice I kept seeing was to make a playlist of some of my favourite songs to keep me going. So I spent the last couple of weeks of pregnancy creating a labour playlist of Spotify with my favourite chill inspiring songs. Think Jose ph? Yeah., love it Fleetwood Mac. Yeah, I love it. Vibes, love it. The playlist was about eight hours long, so we set up the speaker and let the playlist do its thing. Nice. Eventually, after a long neighbor, the playlist ended and Spotify automatically rolled onto a random spicy sex sounds playlist. Sex sounds. It was at this point that my husband somehow managed to lose his phone in the room and we couldn't turn it off. I don't know when I'm going to break it to my son that he was born to the sound of the random Spotify's user's spicy a ASMR playlist. Maybe on his 18th birthday? Love the plot. No. Wait, what is the sex playlist? I don't understand. I think it's like that kind of vibe. People have a playlist. Well I think if you if we I I I mean, shall I give it a go? Let me g let me I'd have thought it'd been like let's get it on Okay, hang on, let me just I'm gonna try and get a sex playlist. A SMR. Here we go. So this is the stuff that was playing while her son or her baby was being born . Oh no no no no no Oh my fucking god . That's like someone eating a burger though. No, can you put turn it off? Why are you playing it for so long? This is way too much . I would have been like, Turn it off Okay, I've got one a wild story from Anonymous. Hi, Jamie and Sophie. In honor of your podcast returning, I want to share my most mortifying story with you. There's a bit of an age gap between me and my sister, so growing up, I was always looking up to her. One day when I was fifteen and she was twenty, while I was home alone and she was out seeing her boyfriend, I used the opportunity to sneak into her room and snoop around her drawers. Feeling bold, I looked in her bedside drawer where I discovered a giant pink dildo. So I took advantage of being home alone and decided to give it a go. What? Fast forward eight years my sister is engaged to that same boyfriend on a hendoo we were playing Never Have I Ever, where my sister revealed that she had a personalised dildo that was moulded in the shape of her fiance's penis from when they were young. I'd used a dildo in the shape of my future brother in law's dick. I'm not being funny, but that's not the bit I'm worried about. Like why are you sharing your sister's dildo is probably what I'm more concerned about because trust me if I found George's dildo I would be like I wouldn't be like oh I'll just give it a wipe down and use it myself. She I don't think she even wiped it down. That is wild if that is true. What about when we someone we know they were having sex with this guy and it was in the the dad's house and he whipped out a dildo and then it was the stepmom's dildo. Someone we know. Yeah. And I was shock, horror. Cause for me, I'm not touching someone else's dildo because it's been in their vagina. That is what isn't that wild? It's so wild. Okay, I have one from Isabella. Hey Sophie and Jamie. First, a huge congratulations on the bath of gorgeous Siggy. You'll be the best parents. Thank you. I've waited forever to send my engagement story to you guys, and it's finally my turn. My fiance, James, and I met just over four years ago on a dating app, or so we thought. After a couple of dates we realised I actually went to school with his younger sister, had been over to his family home, and even more crazily, my photo had been hanging in a picture on his sister's bedroom wall for the last fifteen years. He truly is the love of my life. He has the kindest heart and I can't wait for married life with him. It's like we were always meant to find our way back to each other, even if it was with the help of a bit of modern dating. He proposed in Tromso on a private husky sledging tour and even arranged for a secret photographer to capture the moment. I couldn't be more grateful for every little detail he put into making it so perfect. I can't wait to marry you, James. Here are some pics of the special day and the dreaded school photo. Oh my god, that's the sweetest thing I've ever seen. And I love the way he proposed. I'd love to go on a husky sledging tour. Honey, maybe we should do that together. I would love to. I've been on a husky sledging tour. I've never done it. Guys, congratulations, Isabella and James. We love you both. Okay, I have one from Anonymous, which is a sleep deprivation story. You ready for this? I'm ready. Hi Jamie and Sophie. So happy the podcast is back. Thank you so much. Now I have a story from the newborn era that I thought I would share with you. I sure you know by now that places that your brain goes when you're low in sleep are truly wild. Wild. Where had you all's gone? Oh my god, my brain's all over I don't even know what's going on, left, right, and centre. Even that what does that what does that even mean? What I don't know. One night deep in the no sleep phase, I woke up to the sounds of my baby stirring. I rolled over to my husband because it was his turn and asked him to check the baby's napp y. He then proceeded to put his hand down his own pants, then sniff his hand, and told me that his nappy was clean. It's always good to know that your husband hasn't had an accident and I couldn't help but laugh about how delirious we both're feeling. I hope the sleep deprivation isn't awful. Hang in there and remember it does get better. You're smashing it. Thank you very much for that. That's exactly what I I'm so sorry. I can't help it. They just come pouring out of me these yawns. So like it's like the never-ending yawn. Would listen, guys, want to say we love hearing from all of your stories. We absolutely love them. The list's messages are amazing. Keep sending them in.

And I went and did this sort of laser done. And honestly, it was like the most painful experience I have ever had . They firstly they put had like these things on my eyes.

Let's get them to thread your pubes, because that's how thick my eyebrows are. Sophie said to me, getting our eyebrows threaded is worse than that pain. And I do it every ten days. And I said, and I said, if that is worse than that laser pain and we get when you get eyebrows threaded. No, but I just really struggle with my eyebrows being threaded. My eyebrows are like pubic hairs. So when I pulled them out, it's it's nothing can explain. I want I have to control myself not to push the woman. I want to push her away. I don't because it's so painful. So it itches me. Like I want to say stop and like physically touch her because I just need her to get it. This is what I don't as I because your pain threshold is so high. I don't know why my eyebrows, it's like little needles being put. I don't I don't understand it.
