Anyway, this is times like these. What would you do if he if Dave Bll in front of Annefields eighty, ninety thousand, whatever it is, ninety thousand, whatever is fifty, said I was out with Captain Craackbid.

This is the Chris Moyle Show podcast R O. The Chris Moyle Show podcast. That's right. It's ready to go. The tenth annual Chris Moyles Show podcast for Globals Makes of noise has been run past the lawyers. Oh yeah. Heavily edited down. It doesn't sound like it's been edited And you have got it waiting for you, not only the audio, but also the video. I don't know why we film it. I honestly, I don't know why we film it. Every year, a different person from the Chris Moys show is the accidentally nominated, absolutely drunk leathered person of the year. But who will it be this year? Who was it last year? It' me. It was luckily, mainly mainly L Like towards the end of the pubcast and then we hit stop and then that's when I really went. Yeah fell off the cliff. Absolutely. So actually wasn't that bad on the pubcast was I? You were grreay on the podcast this year. It's been James Robinson before in the past. It's been Dominic Byrurn before in the past. Yeah. Is it going to be Polly on her podcast debut? Does she get so drunk? she vomits on someone? Oh Only time will tell Maybe it's Aaron, the mild demeanor of that sensible man there. Does it break down after a few shots? And was he on the table screaming at someone and going, I don't care Oody time will tellwn Or is it Dominic Byrne who says these words? I am Genineally mortified. Genally Genineally mortified Now why does I sound like that? Over the last ten years, you have been amazingly generous. You have helped us to raise over one Million pounds That's amazing for O ourur charity makes some noise. That's over a million pounds by listening to us get drunk in a pub every year for a decade and we have a brand new installment of the podcast for you. Now this time around We've been joined by some of our colleagues. Yeah Now there there were various reasons for why we did it like this to share But we got Nick Ferrari from LBC Jordan North from Capital and Jenny Faulkner from Smooth Radio Now, those three were chosen because of various reasons. Number one They're all on the breakfast show and the same. us Yeah. So There was an idea that they can then mention it on their show so we can try and raise more money because the whole point of this is to raise as much money as we can Also I have gone drinking with all of those three and they're all a lot of fun So we thought we'd put them all together, we'll bring them along. And let me just tell you right now They do not disappoint S They do not disappoint individually and they do not disappoint. togetheret Yeah Delhi Yeah collectively. Togly together togetherogher. So There's a lot about language. I think everybody says something rude at some point. We say some terrible things. There are some very dubious jokes in there and also it gets Drunk very fast Very quickly Yeah quite deeply drunk. And again, I won't say who was the drunkest this year. Genally mortified. The Chris Moyle Sh podcast This is the Chris Moyle Show podcast. This is the Chris Moyle Show podcast BDO. Do you remember the Booze agents, which was our parody of the news agents, which we did, where we just basically just slowed down the podcast of the news agents and made them sound drunk, which was fantastic. The news agents. It's John and it's Lewis Nvara Oh I didn't Oh you still in Nvada? P this way, John, after the last night at Caesar's Palace any I've got to stop it. othertherwise I would listen to it forever. And it makes you feel drunk, listen to actually. Anyway, from the proper news agents podcasts, I'm delighted to say we have on this show Who is it? Who was it The newews agents. It's Emily. It's Louis It must be John. What an introduction. Yeah. John Soopper, thank you very much for coming on. First of all Can I ask, I'm a big fan of your work. I'm a big fan of your work collectively with the other news agents including Lewis Fam What is it with the intro where Emily is now calling herself Mateless and not Emily And the two of you have remained steadfast on the Christian names, but she's going on the surname situation. Where are we on I can't begin to explain it You'd either need to ring up Emily or ring up a shrink, frankly I don't know what happened there. She suddenly one morning decided she was no longer Emily, that she was mateless U do we think it's a bit bewildering Well, that wouldn't be for us to. Are you tempted to go soapel or not? Are you sticking with John? Kind of comfortable with John, really? Yeah. I mean, I've been calledght a lot of things and you know, soapel's not the worst thing. You know, I'll stick to John. ase Listen, thank you for coming on. I know you've got very busy. I don't know you're coming into the building to do more news agents stuff. So we have a couple of questions about the whole KSma Prime Minister thing, which you can clear up for us Number one Margaret Thatcher Ry was in power for eleven years Primeinis We have had seven prrime mininisters in ten years. Why Well? I think there are some kind of general factors like, you know, have we just become ungovernable? Are we so impatient on social media that unless someone sorts something out Immediately, then they're a total failure, they're a total kind of you know useless person and therefore we've got to get rid of them. That's part of it. I also think that it's ten years since Brexit which sort of You know, I mean, particularly in the Conservative Party destabilized a lot of their politics. We then had COVID And that means that labor has had to take on a huge amount of debt from previous governments, which means that the Labour Party can't turn on the types of spending that it likes. I think those are all structural changes But I do think There is something peculiar about Kirstama Just his inability to take decisions, his inability to work with his colleagues to be engaged politically has just marked him out as someone who just doesn't seem equipped. to do the job. and I know Cabinet ministers who want to be loyal her just exasperated how Pus and how witless and how clueless I'm getting on to a roll now.ady I'm helpless and hapless that he appears to be. and I think they just thought Geez after local cououncil elections, we are absolutely disappearing into oblivion And Nigel Farage's reform is about to take over. and unless we do something pretty fast, then it's going to be curtains For all of us. How hopeless and hapless Iz compared to the perception that's certainly been pushed out there. For me He's not a lead singer He's not a front man of the band And he if you take a band like you too All right, this is my analogy for you. You can have this. Yeah. Bonno is the lead singer of you two. He's brilliant. He's an amazing front man. Ebody in the world knows who he is. It ain't his band He's not in charge of you too, never has been It' the drumm's band, the guy who sits right at the back, Larry Mudlin Jr. It's his band Barno is the frontman of that band And I think There's an element of Ki' aramma there. He ain' He ain't Bono Ay Because he did achieve a lot as Prime Minister, right? Yeah, look, it's a very fair question. He's not even the edge to be honest. I think that Problem with Pierced armour is that you're absolutely right. He's not a salesman. There was a mate of mine ice where I live, who's a solicitor? and I said to him for the election, Do you know aro, and he goes, Oh, God I've instructed him a number of times to act for me in court cases. and And I said, Oh Fantastic What's he like? What's he like? He said Well, I always used him for non jury advocacy work. And I said, sorry, what does that mean He said non jury advocacy. I wouldn't put him up before a jury. I'd put him up before a judge arguing a technical point of law But I'd never put him up before a jury. And you think, uh That is a bit of a problem when politics is retail And you've got to be a frontm and you've got to be selling what it is you're doing. and you've got to be telling the British people a story about how you're doing it and why it's going to work and what the sunny upplands and the bumps in the road we might hit along the way. With Kirst ararma, we suddenly get we're abolishing the winter fuel payment What? sorry, where did that come from didn't know that was going to happen. And there are all these mistakes that have just piled on top of each other, one after another. And the problem is that Kir Starmer hates politics Problem is ition J what, Chris, is a fun fact to God Jn You think you would think that in our electoral system our democracy The prime minister gets voted in by the people and then gets voted out by the people. So you come to power by winning an election, you lose power after you've lost an election The last time that happened was nineteen seventy to ' seventy four with Edward Heath It's over fifty years since a Prime Minister both came to power by winning an election and left power by losing one That's extraordinary Okay, I'm aware of the time because you've got to go. I know youve got a bus to catch. What I am going to say is if anybody's interested, by the way, the worst bit of subliminal advertising I've ever seen right above John's head is John's book Oh there it is How does that there Joob? Chris. That's right. That is Strang. Well knock me down with a feather. John Sopers's book Strangland, which is still available by the way.. Listen, next time you've got more time, we'd love to get you on because we've got loads more questions. Fally, what's your sc come on again. I'd loveers. Please, please. you let us know when you're open free and we'll make room for you Give our love to Lewis and Maateless, of course. Mateless Thank you, John. Bye You arere listening to the Chris Moyle Show podcast B OX. Now, here's something very special and lovely that we're gonna surprise you with because right now I'm not live in the studio. I am pre recorded on tape from a very secret location with Dave Groll Good morning. We had to speak today before the Anfield gig. Yeah. So I saw you guys last at the London Stadium The weather was beautiful. It's a three hour show. It goes like like that. I hope so. We spent a lot of time trying to figure out how we were going to how we were going to write a set list because You've got thirty years, you've got twelve records. There's acoustic material, there's big loud rock stuff. There's deep cuts There are the big sing alongs that everybody loves to hear. There's fan favorites. U And so When we were rehearsing before coming out, we I wrote this thirty four song setlist. R And we would rehearse it in pieces. We'd rehearse the first twelve songs, and then the next day we'd rehearse the next six songs. And then until finally we kind of put it all together and thought, oh my God, it's too much. It's just too much. And I always feel this obligation where You know years ago, when we first started playing, we only had twelve songs. So that's all we could do. And then we had another record. So then we would play for an hour and a half, but over time, it got to the point where I thought, okay, if we go out and we play as much as we can, as hard as we can, as long as we can for our fans then they'll come back. And if you just let it build like that, but you wind up painting yourself into this corner where I'll sit down and I'll think, wa how long did we play last time here?ight. We have to go play an even longer set. But the challenge now is just trying to fit in something for everybody. And it's been amazing. It's been great. I love going and see a band that I saw fifteen, twenty years ago And they would have their big finishing songs, The big two or three that they would finish with. And then you jump forward, however many years it would be And they're now at a point where they can open with songs that they used to finish with. And I'm always weirdly proud of that band. I'm like, wow, look how far you've come that you used to end with this. Now you go, b, let's open with it because we've still got somewhere to go. Well, it's funny as we were writing these setlists, you know, and then we were doing a lot of those smaller shows Shepherd's Bush and in Manchester and stuff like that. And in America, playing movie theaters and clubs and galery ballroom and just like these smaller places and really seeing how songs would work with each other. Like this song goes into this song perfectly because at this point if we stopped between every song, we'd be there for six hours Yeah And if I start talking You know, we're in trouble Like we're gonna it'll just go on and on and on. But I love that. I love when you talk. So we started almost doing medleys of things, not in a berry mantleow way. I don't minded There's nothing like a great medley, but we did start to get to the point where we're like, we have to blast these eight songs without stopping or else it's going to be the show will be an hour longer. And so you come out and you go, all my life, prettender, times like these, my hero these days walk This is a call and then you stop and you're just like And then you start hitting them again and you just have these long sections where you know, you really want everyone to just settle in for the ride. while at the same time having like the ebs and flows and the ups and downs where people can actually like take a break. At one point it was one of the first shows we did When was it? Maybe it was in Oslo and we rehearsed the first eight songs and I'm like, that's that's just too much. Yeah. It's too people we're going to wear them out like in the first eight songs, and we still have another two hours left. So it's I mean, it's a good problem to have, but it's been awesome. It's funny because so I started DJ in lockdown And what? Wn't you gonna come DJ for us? Yeah, yeah, but you had to sol it. Oh yeah, it's my job Well It's not my job. It's not my ne. I just put myself on the bill. Hey, whoo's in charge of the John? Oh I would absolutely drop some Rick Asstley in there. Did I I told you the story of him playing with us in Japan. I mean, Rick. Yeah. Bically, we were backstage. It was a festival in Japan And he was playing that day. We got there too late. And I'm like, Oh man, we missed Rick Ashley. But we had to record a cover song for a radio thing that we were going to do. So Taylor Hawkins and I went back into this jam room and I like, what should we do? And I said, Oh my God, let's do a Rick Ashley song And we started playing Never going to giveive You Up in our jam room. But then we sort of I sort of realized, wow, the arrangement' really similar to smmells like Dean Spirit. So I'm like, it really is. And so I said, Hey, let let's do that drum beat and I'll do the guitar thing, but it'll be never going to give you up. Then we go up on stage to play our show and we're standing there And I look and Rick Ashley's on the side of the stage. Never met him before. And I see his face and I'm like,. And in the middle of one of Ramy's like keyboard solos, I walk over and I say, Hi, I'm Dave. He's like, Hi, I'm Rick. And I said, We just learned never going to give you up. Do you want to come out and sing it, right? And he jumped up on stage. Oh sh that was the first time. Oh my God. And it had just happened like within a few hours that we had learned this song. And he comes up to do it. And the thing that I noticed the most is like I scream all night long. And I'm like When he got the mic and started singing, his voice is so strong and so loud that it was like first thing he sanging it came out of the monitors, I'm like,' opera singer. like I was like, o my God. And then of course, he turned out to be the loveliest human being. Do you, after so many live shows, do you have it down to a T of what you do before you go on stage? or does it differ show to show. It has been the same for decades First of all, you know, I know that some bands have differentere rooms for different members. and there might be one where it's like someone can go and like find some sort of solitude and quiet or whatever. Um With us, it's just always one room and we're always all in it. And it's someone's, you making a bowl of cereal and someone else is playing a guitar and someone else is opening a bl of champagne and some it's just like it's like a sitcom. For me, the most important thing is that when it's time to play, everybody's in a great mood and we're all laughing hysterically and we walk out on stage like you know, a bunch of friends. And then afterwards, one of my favorite things lately has been I walk as I'm walking off stage My youngest Fifi will be standing there waiting, Fifi's eleven. And we go arm in arm Fief gives me a towel. We walk back to the dressing room. and Fves goes and grabs a Guinness and hands it to me and says I'm proud of you. Oh no. That's the best. So that's and then I sit there soaking wet in heaven, just like That's love. This is great. So Yeah. I mean, there's not much routine. It's just I'm just like, God, thank God, that's over with. That'sice. And you know, and I'll say this. I don't know if I've ever said this before Every night at the end of the set, when I hold my guitar up in the air, you can't see my face, but I say, thank God. I swear I'm not kidding. Every night, I'm hiding my face going, o, o, thank God. Thank God that we just killed it, that we smashed. It's a little bit of It's a lot of gratitude But it's also an incredible relief. Ladies and gentlemen, they're about to rock Liverpool t night to Anfield. Give it up for the win and only. Mr. Dave Gll. He Darling. You're listening to the Chris Moyle Show podcast. You are listening to the Chris Moyle Show podcast Bay BO. Matthew is texting morning Matt saying, is there any other industry you could walk in basically straight from a massive night out and not get fired or told off. Incredible. I think I need a career change. It's a very good point, Matt. Well, here's the thing, Matt, because if anybody was going to tell Aronough today, it would be the executive producer of this show. Which is Aaron absolutely I've got a meeting booked in. Yeah. heads up Aaron spilt coffee number two of today. Yeah, sorry. You just spilt more coffee. canan I just say this whole show today I didn't I didn't think this was going to be the case, but it is. The whole show is just turning into like a really bad, bad sitcom And I'm going to update you a bit. So yesterday, we ended up having a few drinks for Dave Grol. No one's gonna to say no to that, right? No one's gonna, Oh my Godd, you're a disgrace. I can't likeike I shouldn't really be drinking. I'm still in recovery, right? By the way, when I keep saying recovery, I' an operation, I'm not like off the drink, right? I mean that, not like you going to meetings. Yeah. I don't have a problem Yes I probably can handle it I can. So anyway, yeah, I should I probably shouldn't have been drinking yesterday, especially in that heat. It's probably not very sensible. I was drinking with Dave Grol. So there you go. Oh any doctor would go, I mean, what were you thinking, Chris? I was drinking with Dave Groll. Oh I don't blame you. Absolutely right. Off you go, best of wish. Anyway, Dave Grnd left. I thought I left I must have left straight away afterwards. It T turns out I stayed captain said about another hour, right? was another din. He also mentioned that we bumped into Jordan North. Oh, I don't remember this. Do you don't have you really? Do don't remember it. Oh.as this when Dave was there or Daveid gone? David gone. So Dave were gone. You were just about to leave. Jordan North, you know, off Capital Bright Samisl to get me out of here. Absolutely. And he looked great. He was wearing a linen shirt and he go God And he was going to an appointment. So he didn't stay for a drink. That was just as you were leaving. Right. He was like, how are you here Eventually I went home, right Now what happens is, when I've had a few drinks and I get into a car, I always pass out. I always fall asleep. And then what happens is the car throws me all over the place and I to get home and I feel sick. and I'm like, I do not feel good at all And I do it a lot. I leave the place, I've had a few drinks, I'm fine. I get into the back of the taxi, I fall asleep, I wake up, I'm like, I don't feel good, I feel sick. So I get in and I basically come home, Tiff's like, how are you? I go, Yeah, I don't feel well. I go upstairs. I go to bed, I fall asleep for two hours, which is not not great So I wake up, right? It's about nine o'clock at night. Tiff's watching Love Island. I go downstairs, see her and I'm thinking, o God, this is bad in it. I need to make amends here because you know also as well. Tiff's one of them. If you've had one drink, then that's you're a alcoholic nightmare. Oh I see, right, okay. If you've had any alcohol and you're not one hundred percent normal, you've had too much to drink It's that guy So I'm thinking, o God and T' done a good job. Be she's been looking after me and all of that. I got she's got stuff going on and you know, should turnurns out, Dom Gam. I'm the best of the bad bunch. Oh, absolutely by quite a stretch actually. Because then let's talk about Captain Krapbeard Yesterday, he was having a few drinks for day of Grol And then he's having a drink with me. And then I left. Yeah then he stayed, he thought I may as well have another drink with Aaron. That's lovely. Yeah. Th then we'll have another drink. Oh, let's have another drink. I left at seven. Captain left at ten thirty last night. ten thirty one isn't it? Now, he knows this because he got a receipt from one of the taxis that he booked That's right, one of the taxis because it turns out Captain booked two taxis Did not know this? No. This is beautiful, Polly. This is lovely. Polly Pull up a chair. So We've all been drinking, Yes, we've been drinking in the sunshine. Yes, I know it's not big and it's not clever. But when we are drinking where Dave Grol from Foo Fighters. on decides it's time for me to go home, gets his phone out. beepy beep, beep beep, beep andy boxses taxi Here comes his taxi, bye bye Aaron, S see you later and off he goes. All the way home What does he do? Falls asleep. Wakes up when the driver goes, Heere, you're own, mate The Captain gets out of the taxiat and goes, I don't live here This isn't where I live.

I love the fact you do. You had to check three times. Ecuse me. hold on, Let me have a look now I I recognize I definitely don't live in. I definitely don't live. I honestly gave it the double check. So good. I't live How He put the wrong postcode in. m. Did you it's coming back. Do you know, there is literally an invention that's created for people like you in your situation. And it's basically home. You press a home button Yes and it's going, Oh, you want to go home? We'll take you home then. Yeah, I used a different Hiously, rightight Now this different app has an autocorrect function Right? It also corrected my postcode. So let's say my postcode is A B one, two ABC, right? I put AB one two, ABC. It went AB one, ABC And I Yeah, do you know why? Be I've had a couple of beers and I've been drinking with Dave Gro, so I went fine. I have a question. Yeah. How far was drop off location one to drop off location two AKA, your house. I don't really know The answer is taxi one cost me twenty five pounds. Taxi two cost me fifteen pounds. You got part of the way. You did it in installments right? So it was fifteen pounds away. You must have thought, God that's cheap. Yeah. I don't live here. Yeah, fifteen k away, which was annoying, but I'd already spent twenty five pounds. you know None of these places are far from each other. You were drinking with Dave Girl from food Fighters.. That is a huge disclaimer. Absolutely. Now I' already home. Now by the time Captain gets home, I've been home, had two hours sleep, got up again, sat with Tiff for a little bit. Yeah and then gone back to bed and I am now fast asleep in my room at home. Cattin is now putting the key or trying to put the key in the door, but it's moving. He's moving. He's moving. Nooy doesn it. Meanwhile, where we left him Here's Aron. Now, if you need an update on what's happened with Aaron so far It's me, Dave Groll, Captain and Aaron and he decides he's going to go and get some tequilas for everybody. I don't want a tequila so I don't have it. Captain doesn't want a tequila, so he doesn't have it. So Aaron goes, Well, I'll drink all the tequilas then. Now Bay in mind, he's the only one who's drinking tequila, right? He then decides I'll get another round of tequilas. There's no round by the way There's Z Aron who wants to kill her So we've worked out, he's at at least now Five tequilas. Yeah And this is after I've gone. And is this sort of seven ish? S like that? eight? ight I say that's not worth a few times. Now. Here's what we don't know is after Captain left, Yes, did Aaron stay there? Yes, O or did he go somewhere else? And what's the answer? Gosh, I wish I was sure. Can we highlight quickly? None of this is clever Oh Oh this is such childish behavior.ally do this. someone has to say. And by the way, can I just say because this tape will be played in court Aaron's divorce thea. Yeah. Hello jurors I just want to say clearly now, I love Sarah. R. and my children and the house that I live in. I want to stay there. And also in Aaron's Defense, we were drinking with Dave Ral fers. And I think also what happened was I contained everything. Yes. with them Dave And the moment he left, Yeah you let everything go. Yeah. get you crumpled like a deck of cards. I get it. I waved and drank five tequilas So Do you know if you ended up somewhere else last night I do you know the answer? I remember drinking with someone telling them that I had the best day of my life I don't know if that person was aware of me talking to them about that. Right.. It was in the Barman by the Ch. Yeah. I made friends with a baran. Right. At the same venue or a different ven venue? A different venue. And I want to say on the way home But I don't know which direction I was walking in. He could have been further away from where he lived. So you're still around Notting Haill area. Sure. sure the reason why Sarah holds all the details Wh she so the out attack. she Oh yes Oh yes, this is the beautiful this is the end piece. Rise is the fact that Aron's phone ran out.. He was charging it up at five to two in the morning Yeah. sent her a text saying, I'm sorry, I'm just charging my phone then I'll be able to book a taxi.

It's not the fact that it's funny, it's not the fact that it's brilliant. It's not the fact that it's kind of ahead of its time It's just a perfect Perfect piece of work that every time I watch it or I see clips of it, I still to this day in twenty twenty six go, I never noticed. No, great. Well yeah. Before Easter eggs were even a thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. There's so many tiny little subtle things in there that are just so beautifully written.

There are guys who I've done that I'm not allowed to do anymore. Yeah. I know about that Yeah. whichich is kind of interesting. And there's one that I really hated doing that I don't have to do anymore a family therapist called Dr. Marvin Monroe. That's right in the early episodes. And the whole point of the character was a family goes to see him to discuss their problems and he has the most irritating possible voice that's just like It is like you know, fingernails on the wall, so you can't possibly get anything out of the therapy. But I had to do the voice that way and it was always a pain. And one day I'm watching the Halloween episode, the new Halloween episode. and they always start with a trip through a graveyard and you see funny names on the gravestones And I saw doctor Marvin Monrose's name in the Gravestone. theyd killed him off. went.

It is the best. So it's Dolly Parton, all right? Wow. Dolly Parton, the greatest to me, you don't get higher than Dolly Parton And she's like, well, you know, Linda She's like Elvis, like you just you're just mesmerized. You can't get your take your eyes off of her. She's very charming, you know, and she's very like Elvis that way. And I was just like going Like that's my life. That's gonna be on my tombstone. I mean Dolly Parton said this. That's amazing. I love the fact that you're just feel so giddy about her. Rightly so. There was a stat that came out recently, which was how many bands had number one song in nineteen eighty five? How many bands had number one songs in nineteen ninety five? How many bands And And now there are no bands. Right. There are artists There are collaborations, but there are very actual few bands. Right. It doesn't really exist. And when I was a kid growing up the music of the eighties there was so muchop great pop music like great pop stars and pop bands. of which there were many and brilliant, writing some great songs And it's just not the same anymore. You have to remember though right now too that The reason for that is because nobody knows what a rehearsal room is Right And artists are being plucked put into a situation and they're writing songs in a studio with all these other people and they've never actually performed their songs before they actually wrote them.. So remember, bands come from writing songs, rehearsing, playing a show, and then understanding what their album is going to be. We don't have that. that doesn't exist anymore. because they're not putting the support, that's called developing So nobody no labels develop artist anymore. Yeah. It's crazy. Thanks for that conversation because sometimes I get, you know, a little curious what what What you what you would think, you know, what is radio thinking? you know, because you guys are obviously very popular and everybody's listening to you. And so we're looking in this genre of music that we play, there are still bands out there. The pop The pop bands certainly wayigh less, but kind of indie rock and roll bands that' still around which is nice. I'll do you a mix tape if you have it Oh, I would love that. Yeah. I make your little mix tpe. Well also When UK is pututting out great music America puts out great music. We always have consistently have had that competition and there has been a lack of that competition because I feel like neither has been generating enough, you know, good music. That's my honest opinion. Absolute pleasure hanging out with you. And I'll tell Dave, it was his own stupid fault didn't And don't forget to do a mix tape for Lindra as.. I will. I'll do a mixed tape. I'm gonna put loads of stuff. And then I'll come back and host the show too. Thank. All right, great. Okay.'s perfect, everybody happy.

Good morning, Alud Terrible news from the worldorld of Rock as Alex James is dead after a tragic chair accident M Hello mates, Good morning. Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Alex James is here How are your stress levels when it comes to big feestivals? So what are we now? June, July, August? So we're just over two months out from it. you All right because you've only just come off the back of the Britic actually Britpop Plassicical is ongoing. I mean, that's a lot as well. I mean that's a rock band and an orchestra and session singers and special guests. Turns out an entire orchestra is less bothered than one guitar player. Really? They turn up when they're supposed to turn up, they do what you ask them That's brilliant Beutiful It's fifteenth Festival this year really? So it doesn't get any easier, but I think it kind of gets more fun Care and I bought the farm on our honeymoon twenty three years ago. But about ten years in, Jamie Oliver It approach me said, Hang on a minute., you love food, I love music. You live on a farm, you've got a venue less to food and musicool. So I mean it's just filling the farm up with everything that I love. Let's talk about Big Feestival. It is obviously the farm in Oxfordshire. it's a Kingdam in the cast literally it's an Aron twenty on the train from Paddington Direct train. When we were looking at the farm, because is there a train station in that field Yeah, we think they gog to London., you didn't know. We never been to London Turns out, direct trains areon twenty. It's like an Araon twenty from Bristol Aarron twenty for from Birmingham, sorted. It's an hour twenty minutes and then a fifty five minute wait for a taxi at Kingham Station. No you can walk. Youalk literally walk into the walk in home my Godd, is it right that close?' ridiculous. ye Yeah. Right. So let's go headliners basement jacks. Yeah for a Friday night Perry Aome and ordinary boys on Friday.ve I've managed to persuade some rocket scientists from Oxford University I have no idea what you're going to say. That's what I say to you while now and whatever you're about to say is totally true You've managed to convince some rocket scientist friends of yours to use the sun as a kind of cheese melting weapon I I went to the Halley lecture, which is the kind of annual lecture they have at Oxford.' I'm talking about gravity waves. ammazing. Amazing. you've got two black holes spinning around each other really, really fast, it shakes the whole universe And the evidence for that is gravity waves. and they've just discovered them. said they were really happy about that.. I said, Yeahah, but that's great. but what about we used the sun to melt some cheese? And they were w in a huddle in the corner. and like five minutes later, they said, yes, we can absolutely do that. We'reward We're leaning towards fondu or possibly Raclette suunnshine is such a huge element of what makes festivals great. And actually food only grows because we live on a planet that goes around a star. So I'm reframing food in a kind of cosmic context. but you know, by the time you've parked your car at Tesco's and found a quid for a trolly, you know you kind of forget the kind of that food is actually a miracle. So we've got this sort of parabolic dish thing Beuse they do that cheese rolling, don't they? Yes they're it's stupid. It's dangerous. What It's a waste of cheese. It Bish people really muller themselves. I know it's dangerous. I know. So I think I'm seeing all these sort of parabolic sort of, you know, like, is it Moonreaker or the James Bond film this? Yes, I'm seeing that, but applied to cheese. Yeah, condu, possibly ret. I love you and your crazy mind, but you really should not be allowed to leave the house. I really shouldn't. It's Aal or mder in the country because there's all got that space just there's nobody's going to hang on a minute. That's probably be what it is. Yeah. I think I'm going to go make this. I think it's going to do that. I think I'm going to do that all right then H this's a bloody great idea. asking you a crazy neighbor from down the road You know the fa who sings with the Brit pop classical who Jamie, big glad ye Yeah, yeah. who said No, no, no, the guy who was guests who says he used to be an Ocean Cisesee No is that is Simon Fowler. Has anybody ever like asked for any kind of like ID? Oh no, come and he's awesome man. I mean I mean there's such a great touring party that because we've got Gary Sringer from Reef, Saffron from Republica Phil Daniels on board. I was there for the night when at the Royal Albert Hall Yeah. andjin that man. Yeahah. I loved it. to know When I did that, I was obviously really nervous, but at the same time hear me both babies. Well. I remember seeing you backstage and I was like, you're all right, I'm really, really nervous. And I was like because I just think, well why would you be nervous? But then the for this show. This is the first time you've done this show, this size and all of that, so I get it I thought Everyone's going to be in the bar when I walk out. There' be There's going to be a handful of people in their seats And everyone's going to be in the bar. So I'm going to walk out to an all empty alcoo hall, which is fine. My job is to warm everybody up. peopleople are going to come in. So I walked out. And I was like, Oh holy cow, it's packed. And it was the opposite of what I thought. It was heaving packed. And I'm like, o my God. No that was such a great notight. I got an email from someone on the board day the next day saying, Alex, thank you for bringing Glastonbury to the Royal Albert Hll. Everyone was literally on their feet from the first minute. I was like, you do realise we took all the seeds out. No I mean I mean,''s just giving people what they want. It's ninety minutes a h. it was such a good show. You should be very, very proud of it. I mean it's a lot of work, it's a lot of people. But it was such a good vibe. and also as well, the guests you have are all lovely as well as brilliant. Saffron is just lovely. I mean, she still sings that song, ready to go. still sings it and its's the original key is's amazing. She absolutely kills it. And your man from Rf St the loveveliest, loveveliest man in the world. Gary's very It's incredible. You know, like you think and I'm not going to name names. Some of these people maybe shouldn't even be around anymore with how they behave. N'm not looking at you,. I' not looking at anyone in particular. But yeah, so that's going to keep going. Yeah, so that we've actually got shows throughout the summers. It's just been so much fun. You know,'s just big crowds have been going wild, you know, just because you could hit a big crowd of people with that amount of music that they're familiar with. it just kicks off man. It's brilliant. I tell you what really lands those pulp, there's a couple of pulp songs at the end I think it turns out everyone in the world knows every single word to common people. I know. And just go two thousand. But I remember you being in that corner of this room. We had a chat on the radio and off the air, I think you said Do you think people would be interested in like a classic version of like Brit pop with a full orchestra? And I went, o my go, that would be massive. And you went, Yeah, I'm kind of thinking about doing it And then the next thing is it was happening and you were doing it. listen, it's so great.
