Speaker 1: feel about that news?
Speaker 2: I've I've been clips of Nashudi get were doing Oscar
Speaker 2: Wilde as it were, as it were, and it looks
Speaker 2: really fun and really I wish I could go see it.
Speaker 2: I wish I could afford to go see it, but
Speaker 2: I also wish I could actually go and watch him
Speaker 2: do it. So I think it'd be fantastic. And I
Speaker 2: mean I didn't watch It's a Sin because it's eighties,
Speaker 2: it's set in the eighties, and it's about gay people.
Speaker 2: We all know how that's going to end. And I
Speaker 2: was very well, yeah, I mean I didn't care, so
Speaker 2: I didn't watch it. I don't know how good of
Speaker 2: an actor Olie Alexander is.
Speaker 1: And you see I watched it sinn thinking, oh no,
Speaker 1: it's only it sings well, but is it going to
Speaker 1: be all acts? Very well?
Speaker 2: Okay? I mean sure, Uh. He just there's something about
Speaker 2: his face that just I want to slap. He's just
Speaker 2: a bit smug. I think he's got that skinny twin
Speaker 2: energy and he's always had that skinny twin energy, and
Speaker 2: it's worked for him, and I feel like.
Speaker 1: It's not bitterness that's happening at all here.
Speaker 2: Sure, I've not finished my rant, but yeah, I mean,
Speaker 2: all right, fine, yeah, I mean, a homosexual playing the
Speaker 2: lead in Oscar Wild play groundbreaking. I'm really interested to
Speaker 2: see what Olie Alexander will bring to the role. Is
Speaker 2: that what you want me to.
Speaker 1: Say for your fish? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, I got to
Speaker 1: watch she's doing it because they put on cinema. So
Speaker 1: they put it on cinema showings up down the country.
Speaker 1: So I hope they'll do that again, or at.
Speaker 2: Least stream it, top it on Netflix. I'll watch it then.
Speaker 1: I think it was trying to get people into the
Speaker 1: cinemas and out of the streaming environment.
Speaker 2: But not into theaters.
Speaker 1: Well no, because they were doing it as a live
Speaker 1: cast from the theater.
Speaker 2: Oh oh, they did that with Doctor Who or something
Speaker 2: once one of.
Speaker 1: The anniversary episodes they live casting. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I'd still stayed home and watched it
Speaker 2: for free on my TV where all my stuff is
Speaker 2: in my house.
Speaker 1: But you can do it in your pants. That's please
Speaker 1: put your trolls on.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, exactly, And I mean seeing shooty gaps were
Speaker 2: when he first became the doctor and was running around
Speaker 2: in his pants. That was Watch the Delights a couple.
Speaker 1: Of times, yeah, blazoned in my brain. But moving on
Speaker 1: Pride season.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yes, bomb literally was going, oh pants, I forgot,
Speaker 2: but also just bomb hooray, bob yes, bumb.
Speaker 1: Bombs and penises and willis and vaginas and boobs and
Speaker 1: all the other.
Speaker 2: You've got you want to say, a doctor, if you've.
Speaker 1: Got a no, it's it's naturally clear. All but yeah,
Speaker 1: World Pride twenty twenty five. Right, Okay, this isn't the thing.
Speaker 1: It's happening in Madrid.
Speaker 2: It's not. It's not that saying it's happening in Spain.
Speaker 1: It's a thing that's happened in Spain. But the thing
Speaker 1: isn't about World Pride, right, It's about the lineup and
Speaker 1: what that has meant. Okay, So the lineup has got
Speaker 1: rita order Kylie Moneygue. You don't know who she is
Speaker 1: with Charlie Nogue all right, okay, spelt Moneygue, Charlie x
Speaker 1: c X and Troy Sevan.
Speaker 2: Okay, of course it is all the homosexuals and the
Speaker 2: ones that all the gays like exactly right.
Speaker 1: But Rita Aura has hinted very heavily that they will
Speaker 1: be working with Troy Savanna on.
Speaker 2: The track right there.
Speaker 1: She is not Kia, that's her sister.
Speaker 2: Very yeah, she's heiress to the the Aura Drinks, so
Speaker 2: she's working with with Choiceavan.
Speaker 1: Said that troyan has always been a big cheerleader, so
Speaker 1: when's doing stuff on stage, Troy was going, yes, queer,
Speaker 1: you can do it.
Speaker 2: Like all of the other gays in the world who'd
Speaker 2: never say things like that. He's very innovative in the
Speaker 2: area of shouting yas queen whatever.
Speaker 1: But no, no, because some artists can be very stand
Speaker 1: offish and go, yeah, you do your thing, I'll do
Speaker 1: my thing and that's it. But is very celebrating and
Speaker 1: joining in the getting everyone riled up, which.
Speaker 2: Well that's nice. I mean I would expect that from everyone,
Speaker 2: But then I'm just generally a nice person.
Speaker 1: Shut you know when you follow that was shut the
Speaker 1: it kind of proves my point without me having to
Speaker 1: say anything. So yeah, moving on very quickly. Are you
Speaker 1: aware of who Janade Ahmed is?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: Do you watch reality TV? Should you start watching reality Absolutely?
Speaker 2: Oh no, I cherished my ignorance on the subject.
Speaker 1: Next question, that's all good to talk about it. So
Speaker 1: out twink, there we go? Right, all right, it's like say,
Speaker 1: walk to a dog, twink. Can I go? Now, let's go,
Speaker 1: let's go, let's go anyway, TOWI star jad Ahmed.
Speaker 2: And I'm flaccid again. Carry on?
Speaker 1: Who's been speaking out after receiving a massive wave of
Speaker 1: abuse for being an out gay Muslim?
Speaker 2: Right, all right, there is ah He's kind of cute.
Speaker 1: He is kind of cute. He's very sweet too. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: he's basically he's been.
Speaker 2: Even if he wasn't cute, he shouldn't get hate for
Speaker 2: being an out gay Muslim.
Speaker 1: And because he is cute, you know. Interest in the
Speaker 1: story again a little bit. But he's been saying that
Speaker 1: even if he's get controlled online, he's refusing to be silenced. Right.
Speaker 1: He wants to say that both parts of his identity
Speaker 1: are valid, right, right, so he can be gaining, he
Speaker 1: can be a Muslim. He doesn't see them as mutually exclusive, right,
Speaker 1: And he won't apologize for exactly who he is.
Speaker 2: Okay, will he apologize for being on tawi?
Speaker 1: No? Well then, because that's how he's become money. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and carry on this and able to have platform.
Speaker 2: Shit.
Speaker 1: So he's saying that being gay Muslim is not contradiction,
Speaker 1: it's my truth.
Speaker 2: Okay, good for him.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's good for him because I think
Speaker 1: within the lgbt Q I A plus spectrum, there is
Speaker 1: a lot more to say about people of my other minorities,
Speaker 1: and we need to be a little bit more accepting,
Speaker 1: a lot more accepting of people because sadly some of
Speaker 1: the abuse has been getting has been from within our
Speaker 1: own community.
Speaker 2: Well yeah, I mean people are awful just generally, that's it. Yeah, yeah, no,
Speaker 2: but yeah, definitely. I mean it's good that he's being
Speaker 2: visible and he's being out there and he's unapologetic and
Speaker 2: all of that kind of thing. And I'm pleased on
Speaker 2: all of those accounts. But then at the same time
Speaker 2: and this, yeah, he's on TWI, So it's like and also,
Speaker 2: he knew what he was getting into. It's not like
Speaker 2: he's been forced into the spotlight against his will or anything.
Speaker 2: He knew this was going to happen when he did
Speaker 2: this kind of thing, and I'm glad that he's like
Speaker 2: doing the right thing with it. He's like, yeah, no,
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna apologize I'm doing this, and he goes
Speaker 2: into it fully knowing the thing. So good for him.
Speaker 1: Exactly and him being a role model, especially for the
Speaker 1: LGBTQI plus and Muslim community.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's nice that the that the queer Muslims
Speaker 2: can go look there's one and go yes, exactly.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we should all be able to look on TV
Speaker 1: and or look there's one as well.
Speaker 2: I've got two.
Speaker 1: You are one. But that's all in the shows this week,
Speaker 1: Thanks Mike.
Speaker 2: I don't know what to say because I was just
Speaker 2: jiggling my boobs around at the end of a story
Speaker 2: about queer Muslims and that feels wrong. I just want
Speaker 2: to acknowledge that I regret that, but only a little bit. Anyway.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you jiggle you boobs and you forget, We're gonna
Speaker 1: say you're welcome River, stay right there is come up.
Speaker 1: After this short break, we go all browser based as
Speaker 1: it's River in the buzz Welcome back and you're watching
Speaker 1: Chewing the Cud. This is the part of the show
Speaker 1: where we dust off the keyboard and get ready to
Speaker 1: be abased as it's River and the buzz.
Speaker 2: Buzz buzz Mine. Indeed, right up first I've been scouring
Speaker 2: the Internet, by which I mean scrolling through rubbish on
Speaker 2: my phone. But I can call it work, so it's fine. Yeah, dear. Anyway,
Speaker 2: did you know that some of those scientists that that
Speaker 2: are on TikTok claim that you can ease migraines using McDonald's.
Speaker 1: Inserted in your rectum as a suppository.
Speaker 2: You'd struggle with I was just that I would I
Speaker 2: would try to name a part of a McDonald's meal,
Speaker 2: and the only one that came to mind was chicken McNuggets,
Speaker 2: and I went to a very strange visual place. You
Speaker 2: wouldn't want the spicy sauce that oh burns like a demon. Anyway. Yeah,
Speaker 2: apparently sufferers swear as you would if you had a migraine,
Speaker 2: But these are parent swear by a salty snack during
Speaker 2: a brain explosion. Okay, which makes sense, But I mean,
Speaker 2: it doesn't have to make Donald's shureley. You could just
Speaker 2: you know, anything with salty. You could just let it
Speaker 2: with the I'm sorry, I've gone to another strange place.
Speaker 1: With me because that is salty.
Speaker 2: Apparently, migraines are linked to dehydration, blood sugars drops, and
Speaker 2: you get a kind of sensory overload, which I get anyway,
Speaker 2: to be honest, is if I'm just around people for
Speaker 2: a long time or yeah, just generally anyway, some people
Speaker 2: say it's more of a comfort food thing than anything
Speaker 2: specific to the to the saltiness. But either way, it
Speaker 2: seems like an excuse to eat whatever you want to eat.
Speaker 2: Like most people say, like when I was at university,
Speaker 2: like McDonald's cures are hangover, I'm like, no.
Speaker 1: It doesn't, it does. It's fat and sultan just I
Speaker 1: mean because again, alcohol dehydrates you so salty goodness, and
Speaker 1: you drink lots of fluids.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I drink lots of fluids. But I never found
Speaker 2: McDonald's help tonny. But then, all right, anyway, should we
Speaker 2: have someone see if it works? Yes? All right?
Speaker 1: Then do you have some? Uh?
Speaker 2: Oh I thought you were getting some? Did you not
Speaker 2: bear with?
Speaker 1: I have I have a meal of pleasure?
Speaker 2: Excuse you?
Speaker 1: That's a happy meal? Smiles. Oh, it's a pokemon.
Speaker 2: Other rubbish food is available.
Speaker 1: But this is for science.
Speaker 2: So what scientific treats do you have in your little oh, dear,
Speaker 2: in your little box, I've got some pokemon? Oh yeah,
Speaker 2: used to good? Yeah, you used to get toys, little
Speaker 2: plastic things. Now you get a QR code to scan
Speaker 2: on your phone.
Speaker 1: No, this is apparently a toy. What is it that stickers?
Speaker 2: All right? I like stickers though, I'm alright with stickers.
Speaker 1: But is that it actual Pokemon card? Oh?
Speaker 2: I thought that was the lemony fresh white. Oh no,
Speaker 2: you only get those in KFC, don't you. Anyway?
Speaker 1: Anyway, such fun cheeseburgers are sort out migraine.
Speaker 2: Yes, do you have a migraine?
Speaker 1: I probably will do in a bit.
Speaker 2: Well, good luck everybody? And oh that good is it? Oh?
Speaker 2: Did you not get the gick or the girls? Who
Speaker 2: is there anyone out there that actually likes the girk
Speaker 2: that actively looks forward to the gurkin in a burger?
Speaker 1: Because we're getting a may from the gallery?
Speaker 2: Yes, well, this is why you're not allowed out. This
Speaker 2: is why you get to This is why you get
Speaker 2: to stay in the gallery. God hm, but it's hard.
Speaker 2: What is that? Oh it's supposed to be salad. I
Speaker 2: think it's mc green hanging on to the end of that.
Speaker 1: I don't have sid on mine.
Speaker 2: I don't have sad on mine. Apart from just there
Speaker 2: there's a weird little bit of something green sprouting out
Speaker 2: the side of my burger.
Speaker 1: Oh dear, I don't know what. I've not got migraine?
Speaker 1: Mm hmm.
Speaker 2: So the.
Speaker 1: What's the next story? Bare with?
Speaker 2: Nope, that's empty, all right, I'm back comes with drink excellent,
Speaker 2: except I can't get the lid off and there's no straws.
Speaker 1: Straws here. But as the straws.
Speaker 2: Is this important in curing the migraine, You think that
Speaker 2: the sugary drink.
Speaker 1: I would have thought so because it else the rehydrate.
Speaker 2: It just makes me giddy, and then half an hour
Speaker 2: later I get a crack in head. They can have
Speaker 2: to lay down again, So I don't think that helps anyway. Crashing, Oh,
Speaker 2: it's a bit. It was a bit between my teeth
Speaker 2: crashing on. So from stories of junk food and I'm
Speaker 2: happy good crashing on from stories about junk food and
Speaker 2: fatty snacks, were onto a zen pic, which you'd have
Speaker 2: to be after this particular meal, I think, But never mind,
Speaker 2: So a zep Are you aware of a zen pic
Speaker 2: is a thing? Yeah?
Speaker 1: You know, I'm aware of people miss of abusing a
Speaker 1: side effect of a drug that's just had to deal
Speaker 1: with diabetes.
Speaker 2: That's it. Yeah, it's not. But then you could say
Speaker 2: the same thing about viagra, which was designed for something
Speaker 2: to do with heart attacks, but because it's a vaso.
Speaker 1: Dilator and also Alzheimer's.
Speaker 2: But because it's a vaso dilator, it dilates your vasos
Speaker 2: and then everyone's feeling perky and firm in a particular area. Anyway,
Speaker 2: that's that's this, isn't that? A zepic is. Yeah, injection
Speaker 2: makes you thinner by making you stop wanting to eat,
Speaker 2: which I think McDonald's have managed to actually, Yeah, like, uh,
Speaker 2: you don't want to eat that, I am no longer hungry,
Speaker 2: Like I've had one bite of that and I'm good. Thanks. Anyway,
Speaker 2: results may vary, it's the same with a zempic. Anyway,
Speaker 2: a zempick has. Shockingly, there's a side effect which isn't
Speaker 2: a real side effect in a medical sense, but is
Speaker 2: a side effect in a I'm abusing this so I
Speaker 2: can get thin kind of way. Okay, it's called a zempic.
Speaker 2: But does it make you gappy? Pudd in?
Speaker 1: Does it make you gappy?
Speaker 2: Uh No, it's because you get thinner too quickly, and
Speaker 2: so your your body can't redo all the skin properly,
Speaker 2: you know, like when when really big people have a
Speaker 2: such Yeah, and then they just have some like wings
Speaker 2: or extra flaps that the body takes a while to
Speaker 2: kind of adjust to because it's just had a lot of.
Speaker 1: It's a very strong word for what I did with
Speaker 1: that gentleman. But someone while I was away on holiday
Speaker 1: and they came back to mine and as they were
Speaker 1: getting undressed, went just to forewarn you, I had a
Speaker 1: gastric bypass. I went okay, And then during the act
Speaker 1: they were above me and the skin was touching me
Speaker 1: and was a gap.
Speaker 2: Oh they weren't. They weren't even didn't even have the
Speaker 2: courtesy to lift it up for you, he says, eating
Speaker 2: match ships.
Speaker 1: All right, Anyway, my skin is formed around stretched around
Speaker 1: the fat. It's fine.
Speaker 2: So anyway, it turns out that this is a thing
Speaker 2: that happens if you use a drug for something that's
Speaker 2: not intended to happen for your bum gets all saggy
Speaker 2: and weird because all the fat that was in your
Speaker 2: buttox is no longer there, but the skin and or
Speaker 2: the flesh is still hanging off them nice. So, yeah,
Speaker 2: what you could do if you don't want a zempick
Speaker 2: bum is. You could tuck it into your socks, or
Speaker 2: you could not inject yourself with random drugs to get thin,
Speaker 2: but instead change to what you eat and go to
Speaker 2: the gym a bit. Maybe just a thought, I'll just
Speaker 2: be fat or just fat and happy, be happy to
Speaker 2: be fat. Yeah, I mean, well, what was your thought then?
Speaker 2: I was I was just gonna say, yeah, just surely
Speaker 2: it's better to just learn to be happy with what
Speaker 2: you are. But then I thought about the fact that
Speaker 2: I go to the gym for five times a week, so.
Speaker 1: I have no problem with people going to the gym. Well,
Speaker 1: as long as you're doing it for the right reasons.
Speaker 2: I'm doing it someone to have sex with attractive people.
Speaker 1: So if that's your right reason, that's your right reason.
Speaker 1: I said, this is my body. I'm very confident with
Speaker 1: my body. No wants to see it.
Speaker 2: I mean, there's a girl out there who made millions
Speaker 2: farting on cakes. I'm sure that there are people who
Speaker 2: are out there who look at you and go, yes,
Speaker 2: please some.
Speaker 1: Of that yeah, and the dog goes rough.
Speaker 2: We all just have to make do with what we've got.
Speaker 2: We have to play the hand you've got.
Speaker 1: Everyone's a fetish.
Speaker 2: Anyway, from junk food to skinny injections to chasing cheese
Speaker 2: down a hill. Okay, hmm, it is at that time
Speaker 2: of the year. It is the annual cheese rolling event
Speaker 2: at Cooper's Hill in Gloucestershire.
Speaker 1: I thought about, say Cooper Beaty.
Speaker 2: No, that's in Austria. Yes, now, this is in Gloucestershire.
Speaker 2: There is a thing. There is a thing. I was
Speaker 2: going to call it a sport. It's not a sport.
Speaker 1: It is a sports sweat involved.
Speaker 2: Participants held themselves downhill chasing a wheel of cheese. This
Speaker 2: is this this there they go. Yeah, oh, that's an
Speaker 2: interesting spinal thing to explain to the nice people in
Speaker 2: the ambulance, isn't it. Your body's not meant to bend
Speaker 2: that way? I don't think. Yeah, lots of people get
Speaker 2: I mean, I've had several cheese related accidents, but they've
Speaker 2: never looked anything like that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that what you're doing, double Gloster.
Speaker 2: All I'm going to say is fondu is not the
Speaker 2: way forward. That's all.
Speaker 1: What they mean by peanis cheese.
Speaker 2: Oh no, I went through a tuba savalon in a weekend.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you that Yeah, that's anyway. Someone died from
Speaker 2: this one year at least once, and yet people still
Speaker 2: do it.
Speaker 1: Were their laptose intolerant.
Speaker 2: I see what you did there. That was quite good.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was all of for it.
Speaker 2: And that's the end of the buzz for this week,
Speaker 2: because why not don't go anywhere as coming up, we
Speaker 2: have a game for you to play along with in
Speaker 2: our game of the.

Speaker 1: It's a country part of India.
Speaker 2: Ah cool? Thanks?
Speaker 1: Okay, Next question, who has a third gender that they
Speaker 1: legally recognize? Right? Next one? Little nas X, little nas X, little.
Speaker 2: Nas X, little little Naz kiss well, little lads with
Speaker 2: the kiss at the x O X so that that's

Speaker 2: Not little nas, not little Naz, littl Naz, little naz X,
Speaker 2: little naz X, little Nax.
Speaker 1: That's what I said. You're just you're hearing it different
Speaker 1: because of my accent. Came out on the last day
Speaker 1: of Wide month. What he came out on the last
Speaker 1: day of Pride Month?
Speaker 2: Uh? What this year? No, can't have been It's been
Speaker 2: a while, uh Nia, I don't think that's true.
Speaker 1: Oh, it's true. He came out on the thirtieth of
Speaker 1: June twenty nineteen, oh last year before the pandemic.
Speaker 2: I mean he had a whole rainbow colored bit in
Speaker 2: his album title. Is that him coming out?
Speaker 1: Because it came out after that after twenty ninety Oh
Speaker 1: did it? Well? The way he gave birth to the album.
Speaker 2: Oh dear, I don't know it was. It was. It
Speaker 2: was before the pandemic, So as far as I'm concerned,
Speaker 2: it's it's ancient history. I can't remember anything from back then.
Speaker 2: That said, I can't really remember what I did last week.
Speaker 1: So all this morning, okay, next one, the village people
Speaker 1: were all straight.
Speaker 2: Uh I mean that that that sounds like it's probably true.
Speaker 2: But I bet one of them turned out to be
Speaker 2: a secret homecesul.
Speaker 1: That's what you're saying.
Speaker 2: So I'm saying near not queer.
Speaker 1: Okay, correct? Several were gay, including the originally singer shocking.
Speaker 1: I know right.
Speaker 2: To think that that song was made by wafters I
Speaker 2: know shouldn't be allowed.
Speaker 1: Where they could do whatever they feel down at the ymcam.
Speaker 1: Actually did I Will Survive Good for You by Gloria Again,
Speaker 1: it is considered a queer anthem.
Speaker 2: Queer?
Speaker 1: Correct? Indeed, did you know that I'm near no queer?
Speaker 2: Now you have if I knew, and I'm like, no,
Speaker 2: probably not.
Speaker 1: Did I know there was an interesting little factory that
Speaker 1: you shall never learn the answer to.
Speaker 2: I'm David, tell me.
Speaker 1: David Bowie once said he was a closet heterosexual. Is
Speaker 1: that queer or not queer? David Bowie okay, once said
Speaker 1: he was a closet heterosexual.
Speaker 2: No, no, near, I don't think that's a real one.
Speaker 1: He did after previously identifying as gay and buy he
Speaker 1: said he was a closet heterosexual.
Speaker 2: All right. It was the seventies.
Speaker 1: There were a hell of a drug apparently, so this
Speaker 1: one might get you a bit racheful. Hopefully it does.
Speaker 1: Heteronormativity was coined by legend.
Speaker 2: RuPaul near and not even near, far far away.
Speaker 1: Well, you'd be glad to know that is not quite true.
Speaker 1: It appears early in the nineteen sixties.
Speaker 2: Excellent. It's like when people say, oh, sis is a
Speaker 2: new thing, like, No, sis has been around to mean
Speaker 2: not trams since like the nineteen twenties.
Speaker 1: I think coming on that so cis gendered was used
Speaker 1: in the nineteen twenties, that's right, But sis has been
Speaker 1: around since what were they called? Oh yes, people were
Speaker 1: speaking Latin.
Speaker 2: Yes, because it's a it's a prefix. Sis is a
Speaker 2: prefix to mean yeah, okay, yeah, in the same way
Speaker 2: that homo just means same and hetero means different.
Speaker 1: Anyway, Yes. Oscar Wilde Yes wrote a letter from prison
Speaker 1: titled deep Profundis.
Speaker 2: That's true, Yeah, queer, I knew that one.
Speaker 1: It is. Yes, I was saying it's great because he
Speaker 1: was sentenced to Wasson for sodomy. Yes, so you were
Speaker 1: sent to prison for being taken up anyway, it just
Speaker 1: doesn't sound like a punishment to me. There's a species
Speaker 1: of clownfish that can change sex.
Speaker 2: Yes, queer, it's the one that Nemo's dad, well, Nemo
Speaker 2: and his dad, I imagine, was because there was a
Speaker 2: thing about how if this was real life and Nemo's
Speaker 2: mum got eaten, Nemo's dad would become his mum and
Speaker 2: then they'd have kids together. Because fish aren't people, and
Speaker 2: that's how they roll.
Speaker 1: Indeed, they're sequential hermaphrodites cool plenty, good for them. That's
Speaker 1: a scientific word. I don't know.
Speaker 2: Sequential. Nice, Well, you want it to be sequential, wouldn't
Speaker 2: it You wouldn't want it all at once? That I'd
Speaker 2: get very confusing.
Speaker 1: Would you be able to get yourself pregnant?
Speaker 2: They could try?
Speaker 1: I do next thing?
Speaker 2: Um.
Speaker 1: In ancient Rome, ancient role lesbianism was it legal, but
Speaker 1: male homosexually wasn't.
Speaker 2: Let's say near Because I feel like, I feel like
Speaker 2: the Romans and the Greeks were quite famous for all
Speaker 2: the bumming, and they not quite consensual sex with younger men.
Speaker 2: So I'm going to say that that one is near
Speaker 2: not quite true.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Rome had a complicated class based attitude. Well, it
Speaker 1: depends how ritual. I mean. I'm not going to say
Speaker 1: that still happens today, not at all. I'm not going
Speaker 1: to say anything about certain files and a certain president.
Speaker 1: Moving on, ball culture.
Speaker 2: If you've got if you've got culture on your balls,
Speaker 2: you need to get that scene too. Learned that one
Speaker 2: that hard way?
Speaker 1: Did you learn?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: No, no no? Ball culture began in nineteen eighties Los Angeles.
Speaker 2: Uh near. I think it was earlier than that, and
Speaker 2: I think it was in New York, but I don't
Speaker 2: know for sure.
Speaker 1: Nineteen twenties Harlem.
Speaker 2: In fact, there we go. That's New york Ish, isn't it.
Speaker 1: It is New York Yeah, because I think nineteen twenties
Speaker 1: they didn't have Vogue then what the magazine? No, so
Speaker 1: they wouldn't have been able to Vogue didn't.
Speaker 2: Didn't did the did the magazine name come first?
Speaker 1: I think yes, because the reason why voguing is called
Speaker 1: voguing is because they the original pose is to emulate
Speaker 1: what they were doing in vogue. So he had those
Speaker 1: pictures or that that very eighties stylized. Ireland's first openly
Speaker 1: gay prime minister was Leo Va Kada queer.
Speaker 2: Yes, correct, actually a thing, yeah, actually a thing which
Speaker 2: is quite nice. Yeah, it was he. It was he
Speaker 2: the T shirt or whatever they call it or because
Speaker 2: I think it's like the their their leaders in Irish,
Speaker 2: the word is t shock, I believe, yes, yes, something
Speaker 2: like that.
Speaker 1: Okay, that's enough for now. Coming up after this shortbreak,
Speaker 1: we prepare for our oural stimulation. That means Ears and
Speaker 1: River in Spotlight welcome back, and you're still watching Micro
Speaker 1: and River in chewing they could. Now we're going to
Speaker 1: experience what River is famous for and not on specialist websites. Well,
Speaker 1: it's Spotlight, so it's you're famous for podcasting amongst many
Speaker 1: things that's on speciality websit. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Well, I mean you do need quite a special website
Speaker 2: for for YouTube for podcasting stuff. It's not YouTube, no, no,
Speaker 2: it is on YouTube, but there's quite a lot of bleeping,
Speaker 2: quite a lot.
Speaker 1: I quite like after a while, what kind of things
Speaker 1: do you talk about on your podcast.
Speaker 2: Oh, all sorts of queer stuff. Everything queer. I actually started.
Speaker 2: One of the reasons I started it back in the
Speaker 2: day was because there were lots of gay YouTube channels
Speaker 2: and gay content, but it was all kind of like
Speaker 2: nice and fluffy and hate kids. It's great to be gay,
Speaker 2: rather than huh kindibis, yeah it is, it is great
Speaker 2: being gay, deaf sias. But there was a lot of
Speaker 2: all the websites were like that's that was yeah, gayness,
Speaker 2: and there wasn't much about like the less family friendly
Speaker 2: side of things.
Speaker 1: Not to say that it's the you know, just sanitized.
Speaker 2: Yeah, very very It's queer stuff for queer people, not
Speaker 2: worried about what the advertisers want us to talk about
Speaker 2: so that they can package it nicely to straight people
Speaker 2: and sell it for money, which is why I'm poor.
Speaker 2: If I were any good at business, i'd be doing
Speaker 2: the sanitized, happily clean and all of that. But it's not.
Speaker 2: I do. I talk about real stuff.
Speaker 1: So what kind of topics do you cover?
Speaker 2: Well, I'm trying to think now of ones that I
Speaker 2: can talk about in a in a nothing nothing particularly disgusting.
Speaker 2: But we've talked about there's been an episode about how
Speaker 2: bums are great, but they're not just for sex. Sometimes
Speaker 2: they're also and how it's best it's best not to
Speaker 2: get the two mixed up and how to stop that
Speaker 2: from happening and things like that.
Speaker 1: Okay, so thinks that douche.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's it. I wasn't sure if I was allowed
Speaker 2: to say.
Speaker 1: That that most French for shower it is.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so having a French shower when you're expecting a
Speaker 2: gentleman caller and that kind of thing. Yeah, and all that,
Speaker 2: and talking about why my housemate owns a pair of
Speaker 2: noise canceling headphones things like that, because that's always fun
Speaker 2: to be the cause of the need for noise canceling
Speaker 2: headphones rather than having to be the one wearing them,
Speaker 2: And things like topping and bottoming and what that, and
Speaker 2: like how you're not at top or bottom, you're someone
Speaker 2: who enjoys two bottom because it's not who you are.
Speaker 2: It's one of the things what you enjoy and that
Speaker 2: can change over time. You know, everything's queer and fluid.
Speaker 2: There's a load of stuff about being trans and non
Speaker 2: binary because that was kind of part of my journey
Speaker 2: and so you know, there's some stuff about that. I
Speaker 2: make it funny and silly. I a few years ago
Speaker 2: I had a big birthday. I'm an undisclosed number of
Speaker 2: years old. Don't worry about it. Part of my part
Speaker 2: of my trauma response to being in my thirties was
Speaker 2: to owl's this podcast be quiet? How dare you using
Speaker 2: your maths at me?
Speaker 1: One hundred and fifty episodes?
Speaker 2: Ish, it's about shagging twinks, all right, so stuff like
Speaker 2: that and body hair and all sorts of things. There's
Speaker 2: all sorts of episodes about all sorts of stuff, all
Speaker 2: of it from a queer perspective in a way that
Speaker 2: should be hopefully silly and fun and engaging, and talks
Speaker 2: about stuff in a way that isn't too sanitized and boring.
Speaker 1: So very important needed, but still lighthearted.
Speaker 2: Yeah, bit of silly.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, cool. So how do you approach a subject
Speaker 1: like douching from a silly angle? Do you put?
Speaker 2: You test the water first? You make sure it's a
Speaker 2: comfortable temperature, because that's that can be bracing. If it's
Speaker 2: too cold, you really, yeah, it wakes you up. It
Speaker 2: don't need to be too hot either, No, No, you'd
Speaker 2: struggle getting the Savlon right up there, wouldn't you dear again? So, yes,
Speaker 2: I personally, when it comes to stuff like douching, I
Speaker 2: think about, you know, my experience of it, what I've
Speaker 2: what I what I know of it. Sometimes I do
Speaker 2: a bit of research, by which I mean I have
Speaker 2: a flick through Instagram and TikTok, and then I try
Speaker 2: and think of some jokes and make it funny and silly.
Speaker 2: We'll still find out what my point was, And I'm like,
Speaker 2: what am I trying to say? And then I chuck
Speaker 2: some knob jokes in. It's not difficult. If it were,
Speaker 2: it wouldn't be me doing it. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Okay, so you're talked about douching.
Speaker 2: Yes, you seem stuck on that one.
Speaker 1: Do you want to shouting?
Speaker 2: Shouting more just vocally enjoying your gentleman caller as it were,
Speaker 2: annoying the neighbors.
Speaker 1: Annoying the neighbors.
Speaker 2: I mean, if it's any good, you get to a yodel.
Speaker 2: Sometimes it's more of just a grunt and a squirt,
Speaker 2: but that's you know, well we all get through it,
Speaker 2: don't we do it? Okay?
Speaker 1: Cool? So what should be probably your biggest tip? Sorry?
Speaker 1: People enjoying sex. What's your biggest tip?
Speaker 2: Oh, my biggest tip for enjoying sex use your words, like,
Speaker 2: don't be afraid to ask for what you want. No
Speaker 2: one's a mind reader. It took me a while to
Speaker 2: kind of like a very boring sex where I'm lid there,
Speaker 2: just kind of thinking, I hope you've just done soon,
Speaker 2: and before I realized that that's not really what you
Speaker 2: should be doing. What you should be doing is kind
Speaker 2: of going, what are you doing? Please? Stop? You're doing
Speaker 2: it wrong. Stop moving your arms about so much? Why
Speaker 2: are you sweating? Neither of us are moving that much.
Speaker 2: Things like that, you know, getting getting into it, and
Speaker 2: actually kind of like correcting people because if you don't
Speaker 2: tell them, they're not going to know, and they'll think
Speaker 2: they did a good job. Yeah, stop faking it. I've
Speaker 2: faked a lot of orgasms, even as a top and
Speaker 2: even while topping, and it's.
Speaker 1: An orgasm you just grunt and.
Speaker 2: Twitch a bit. No one checks. They're all too busy
Speaker 2: doing their own thing anyway, always check, They never check anyway,
Speaker 2: and stuff like that, and you know, it's disappointing. Whereas
Speaker 2: if you have to stop faking your orgasms. I started booing,
Speaker 2: but that I went a bit farther the way. People
Speaker 2: don't like that so much, you know, and you should
Speaker 2: feel bad. That kind of thing doesn't work very well. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I know. But somewhere in the middle, you know, it's
Speaker 2: it's better to be like, okay, now let's try it
Speaker 2: like this, or oh yeah, that feels good, keep doing that,
Speaker 2: or oh no, don't, or just rearranging things as you
Speaker 2: go to make it more fun. And if they push back,
Speaker 2: that can be part of the fun. I like it
Speaker 2: when they struggle. But also you know, you're you're learning
Speaker 2: together and it helps. And you know, if you're if
Speaker 2: you're one of those people that like seeing people more
Speaker 2: than once you're weirdos, then you learn together.
Speaker 1: You have a particular parson for the younger gentleman caller.
Speaker 2: Nothing was ever proved and say illegal, All right, okay,
Speaker 2: I mean your.
Speaker 1: Age, it's not difficult.
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, considering my age, most of the
Speaker 2: people but I could have sex with are already younger
Speaker 2: than me. You know that that number is only going
Speaker 2: to keep getting bigger. That the number of people getting
Speaker 2: older than me is is shrinking, The number of people
Speaker 2: younger is constantly increasing.
Speaker 1: Do you find you have to educate more.
Speaker 2: I mean it depends on I find it easier to
Speaker 2: filter for already know what they're doing. So if there's
Speaker 2: someone who's kind of hot but seems a bit kind
Speaker 2: of gorneless or a bit kind of like that. I
Speaker 2: found the really pretty ones tend to be useless in
Speaker 2: bed because they've never had to try. They just kind
Speaker 2: of like drift through and everything just happens for them.
Speaker 2: You know, you can really tell the ones who've always
Speaker 2: been hot because they just turn up and expect everything
Speaker 2: to go wonderfully for them. Yeah, and yeah, I had
Speaker 2: one guy actually, he came around. We were having a
Speaker 2: lovely time stripping each other off all of that gorgeous
Speaker 2: six pack. He was really hot. Even his dick had abs,
Speaker 2: that's how hot he was. And yeah, so I was
Speaker 2: I was down there doing my thing. I'm having a
Speaker 2: lovely time. And then afterwards he was great, Oh that
Speaker 2: was amazing. Did you come too? And I'm like, did I?
Speaker 2: Did I come from sucking your dick? Sure? Why not? Goodbye?
Speaker 2: And and yeah, So I've found unless they really seem
Speaker 2: to know what they're doing, I'm like, no, I'm going
Speaker 2: to finishing myself off I might as well just use
Speaker 2: your pictures and have the rest of the night to myself.
Speaker 2: Whereas if they if they know what they're doing, if
Speaker 2: they seem a lot more engaged and like they're actually
Speaker 2: listening to me rather than just having a really complicated
Speaker 2: wet wank, do you know what I mean? Like, sometimes
Speaker 2: you have sex with people and like, oh, you don't
Speaker 2: need me here, you just needed something to Sometimes you
Speaker 2: do get people or so I certainly have encountered people
Speaker 2: who aren't that bothered about the other person. They're just
Speaker 2: there for their own pleasure and that's that's that's a
Speaker 2: that's a no from me, thank you.
Speaker 1: When you're looking about sex and all that sort of stuff.
Speaker 2: I think it communications to the deaf seas I very
Speaker 2: much agree. Use your words, communicate, make sure the other
Speaker 2: person knows, and if they're not listening or they're not receptive,
Speaker 2: get rid find a better one one.
Speaker 1: Okay? Cool. So if people wanted to hear some less
Speaker 1: TV friendly versions of that swears in it and everywheares
Speaker 1: and things, and where would we find it?
Speaker 2: Yes, anywhere on the internet. Just search probably true podcast
Speaker 2: or River Scott you'll probably find it with my name.
