Speaker 2: Jaden Smith our friends. I can see that being a thing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, apparently they've been friends for a good ten
Speaker 1: years or so, because I've grown up at the same
Speaker 1: sort of time in the industry, so I can see
Speaker 1: that exactly.
Speaker 2: Well, apparently they collaborate club collab if I can say
Speaker 2: that word. Apparently they collaborated back in twenty ten for
Speaker 2: The Karate Kids because Bioble was doing the soundtrack and
Speaker 2: that was his first film, wasn't it. Okay, Yeah, so
Speaker 2: they've known each other for a while. Well, Coachella is on,
Speaker 2: and but hanging out there as people of that age
Speaker 2: will do and having a good time. People of all
Speaker 2: the ages go to Coachella. Well, yes, that's it's I
Speaker 2: always see as like a thing for that age group.
Speaker 2: Younger children. Younger children, they're well in their twenties. Now,
Speaker 2: Justin Bieber is not in his thirties at all. Twenties
Speaker 2: Is it his twenties? He must be in his twenties.
Speaker 2: He's not. He's not still a teenager. It's thirties. How
Speaker 2: the is he in his thirties? No? No, no, no, no, yeah,
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't like that in his thirties. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I don't agree with that. That that's not true. It's traffic.
Speaker 2: It's in fact we're if Trump can rearrange reality, I
Speaker 2: can as well. Was lying to you. He's still a tadpole.
Speaker 2: It's nineties, was the only last week and none of
Speaker 2: this is true. Okay, yeah, so Jaden Smith's twenty five.
Speaker 3: Oh god, you can shut up now. These are children
Speaker 3: adults anyway. Anyway, they're friends.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they are Jella, Yes, they are friends. And they've
Speaker 2: gone to Coachella. Okay.
Speaker 1: Well, you know, when you're a little bit drunk and
Speaker 1: you're having a little bit of fun, sometimes you might,
Speaker 1: you know, if you're close with somebody approached.
Speaker 2: Them in a certain way, fun and friendly. Okay, So
Speaker 2: Jade and Smith comes up to Bieber. It's all captured
Speaker 2: on Instagram, on Facebook, you know, the social things, and
Speaker 2: people have been chatting about it because it looked a
Speaker 2: bit fruity. That's just bottoming, I think. See.
Speaker 1: I have friends that come up and hug me like
Speaker 1: that too. Yeah, and it's just a hug.
Speaker 2: It is just a hug. Well, to be fair, it's
Speaker 2: followed up by a little peck on the cheek.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So the whole thing was yeah, there we go.
Speaker 1: See that's a See his hand isn't on his back side,
Speaker 1: so it's not it's not sexual.
Speaker 2: Well, I've got straight friends that cut my bum. It's
Speaker 2: not well kissing you well, yeah, if it's only like
Speaker 2: a peck on the cheek that's in his ear only
Speaker 2: because they know that it makes me uncomfortable when the
Speaker 2: straight makes do it, you say uncomfortable. No, no, I don't.
Speaker 2: I've got that. They're firmly in the friend zone, so
Speaker 2: I don't like them doing it. But yeah, it's it's nothing,
Speaker 2: is it.
Speaker 1: It's just it's it's just got that man in the
Speaker 1: background is enjoying them new But it's just friends being friends.
Speaker 2: A bit of top Obviously, Jaden Smith played about with
Speaker 2: sexuality a lot in the social media open.
Speaker 1: Honest exploration of their own identity.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like, let them get on with it. But
Speaker 2: obviously there's trolls in chat rooms and they've started using
Speaker 2: up go as like a slur. I remember remember it
Speaker 2: was when we were kids. Stilly is now really But
Speaker 2: it's just well, even if they were, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 2: Let them get on with it, like it's it would
Speaker 2: make a cute couple, absolutely, But yeah, and there's lots
Speaker 2: of things going on with for Justin Bieber at the
Speaker 2: moment with accusations and things and stuff like that, but
Speaker 2: it's just like, for goodness sake, makes be mates. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's it's not news. I know we're covering it as news,
Speaker 2: but it's not news. Just let people be friends. So
Speaker 2: that's that. Onto more TV stuff, Okay, because I believe
Speaker 2: you're a fan of Bridgeton. I do enjoy Bridgington. It's
Speaker 2: a you know, a bit of a bit of period drama,
Speaker 2: a bit of period drama. Okay, it's coming back. I know.
Speaker 2: I'm very excited Season three is going to be coming
Speaker 2: out now. I've not really actually watched it very much,
Speaker 2: that's okay. I don't engage with it. Part of it
Speaker 2: is because it doesn't really have any appeal for me
Speaker 2: because there's no gay love stories on it. Okay, there
Speaker 2: are in my mind. Well, there's there's been some accusations
Speaker 2: about them doing a bit of queer baiting because I
Speaker 2: think when The Trainers came out for the first season,
Speaker 2: there was some very prominent couple, couple of people cooking
Speaker 2: it up, suggesting that there's a gay love storyline going on.
Speaker 2: Turns out there were just background actors in a throwaway scene, so,
Speaker 2: you know, it's okay, two seasons. It's meant to be
Speaker 2: about sexual liberation in that period and no homos.
Speaker 1: Well, some of the bits have been of some of
Speaker 1: the life storyline, you go, is that a bit suffik
Speaker 1: on some of them, but it's never actually said.
Speaker 2: This is actually exactly so all the accusations of queer baiting.
Speaker 2: If you're kind of do it, just do it, do it.
Speaker 1: And there's gay actors in there. There's Jonathan Bailey and
Speaker 1: there's Nicola Coughlin who's played lesbian and dairy girls.
Speaker 2: But no, no, apparently that's going to change. So if
Speaker 2: you're looking forward to season three, We're coming, Puffs will
Speaker 2: be on Bridgiiton.
Speaker 1: Well, I've heard looking forward to season three because we're coming,
Speaker 1: We're coming.
Speaker 2: Oh, Bridgton's on. Well. I used to be like spartacaus
Speaker 2: Blood and Sand never made it through an episode. I
Speaker 2: love that show.
Speaker 3: Do you enjoy a good soap wedding, A soapy wedding,
Speaker 3: A soap wedding, Yeah, weddings on soaps?
Speaker 2: Ok? Yeah, serialized dramas. Really watched that many soaps? Not
Speaker 2: a fan of Marmadale, EastEnders, Corey.
Speaker 1: I've not watched Emmadale since it was Emmadelle Farm and
Speaker 1: Amos was in it. Okay, and for those of you
Speaker 1: that were born after the year nineteen eighty nine, you
Speaker 1: have no idea.
Speaker 2: What I'm talking about.
Speaker 1: My grandparents used to be in the so so I
Speaker 1: used to watch them a lot, but I'm not I've
Speaker 1: never really been into it. I like the occasionally stand
Speaker 1: as me mey thing like can of mapab but I like,
Speaker 1: but not watching a whole episode.
Speaker 2: Well, when soaps go big, like at Christmas or for
Speaker 2: some big celebrations, they really go big, Okay. And typically
Speaker 2: some soaps that's when a wedding occurs, and there'll be
Speaker 2: a natural disaster or an ex wife turns up and
Speaker 2: they're still married. You know, all that kind of stuff.
Speaker 2: Airplane crashing into a village, it's nowhere near in airport. Yeah,
Speaker 2: oh I remember that. That's that's that's that lives red
Speaker 2: free in my brain forever. Anyway, sometimes they can be
Speaker 2: used for force for good. Okay, this time we're we're
Speaker 2: getting a wedding in Emma Dale and it's going to
Speaker 2: be Landmark TV.
Speaker 1: Okay, because the person getting married is one of our own.
Speaker 1: It's a transactor call.
Speaker 2: Yes, So The actor is called Ash palm Misco or
Speaker 2: let me say if I can get that pronounced Palmsiciano.
Speaker 2: I think that's how it's pronounced. Okay, cool, handsome chat
Speaker 2: And they play a character called Matty Barton. Now you
Speaker 2: remember like Kylie and Jason.
Speaker 4: That's like that was like a big wedding exactly, but
Speaker 4: this one's going to be land a landmark moment because
Speaker 4: both they and the character they play is trans and
Speaker 4: actually they it's because there's very little representation of trans
Speaker 4: especially positive representation.
Speaker 2: This is a big moment.
Speaker 1: I think it's an amazing moment for Emmadel to actually
Speaker 1: do a trans wedding, So the.
Speaker 2: First one in British sup history. Yes exactly. That's why
Speaker 2: it's Landmark TV. And they've put everything into it, like
Speaker 2: I've read interviews and they've really dedicated, they're looking forward it,
Speaker 2: they're putting the best performance. They are a Shakespearean level actor.
Speaker 2: They've performed.
Speaker 1: They've been the first transactor to work at the Royal
Speaker 1: Shape well as far as we know, in its history,
Speaker 1: the Royal Shakespeareactor exactly. Rush Socio Company was always a
Speaker 1: little bit gender fluid. Yeah, yes, and it was that
Speaker 1: only had men playing women parts for a.
Speaker 2: Long long time.
Speaker 1: So yeah, but well done Emmadale for just showing human
Speaker 1: beings in a human being way.
Speaker 2: And it's a large mainstream audience. I think it's very
Speaker 2: very important that they're on there perfect also more than them.
Speaker 1: And that's all from the show biz's that miss always
Speaker 1: nice to end on a positive note for our trans siblings.
Speaker 2: You're welcome, but stick around now as it's Mike in
Speaker 2: the buzz. You're watching chewing the cud with Mist and Mike.
Speaker 2: Now let's go deep into the horrible Worldwide Web and
Speaker 2: see what Mike has found in the buzz mostly lovely things,
Speaker 2: to be fair. Really, yeah, it's not a horrible place.
Speaker 2: We don't go to the dark web.
Speaker 1: I go to the Weka, which is where it gets
Speaker 1: a little bit fruitier, but without the stabby stabby.
Speaker 2: Oh no, we don't.
Speaker 1: We don't like the stabby stabby.
Speaker 2: Well.
Speaker 1: The first one is about what's been nicknamed the Fantasy House,
Speaker 1: right or Ron's Place in Birkenhead.
Speaker 2: Have you heard of this place?
Speaker 1: I've not heard about Ron's Place when I when I
Speaker 1: first got told about this this place, and right I went,
Speaker 1: are you sure this isn't mist's house because it's it's
Speaker 1: literally a gentleman called Ron Getting's who was in Birkenhead,
Speaker 1: who died in twenty nineteen, right when the council went
Speaker 1: in to take back possession of his flat, went oh
Speaker 1: my goodness, what has he done to this flat?
Speaker 2: Well? How did he do? Right? Was there a sex
Speaker 2: dungeon in the cellar? Is that why you thought it
Speaker 2: was mine? No, because it was a.
Speaker 1: Flat that don't have cells and flats.
Speaker 2: It's actually is made the whole house of fantasy land.
Speaker 1: Okay, so things like he has got a fire that's
Speaker 1: got a bull's head and the.
Speaker 2: Fires in the mouth.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's it's to the point where the National
Speaker 1: Trust I have really pronounced the tea on it, because
Speaker 1: natural trust is a different thing. National Trust have turned
Speaker 1: and said this needs to be great, two listed right,
Speaker 1: and so giving it listed status.
Speaker 2: Okay, we've got a couple more pictures of it.
Speaker 1: Okay, so that's the bathroom that had fallen into a
Speaker 1: bit of disrepair.
Speaker 2: But yeah, he's not had a bath in there.
Speaker 1: The toy that looks pristine though, yes, so this is
Speaker 1: because he was having worked on the stuff when he died.
Speaker 1: So it's things that he'd done. A seascape in the bathroom. Yeah.
Speaker 1: We also have a picture of his his dining room, Wow,
Speaker 1: lion's head with the fire in it.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: And all this is hand painted right, The sculptures and
Speaker 1: stuff that is made actual art itself, he has all
Speaker 1: done by hand.
Speaker 2: I really envy that. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And I also did a couples of others rooms as well,
Speaker 1: and the murals were carried on in different parts of
Speaker 1: the room, even to the ceiling.
Speaker 2: Wow, painted it all by hand.
Speaker 1: So it's a it's a really good Yeah, it's been
Speaker 1: given Grade two listed status.
Speaker 2: Not surprised. It's absolutely amazing.
Speaker 1: Because he's spent his entire life working on it. Yes,
Speaker 1: I've been living in the house flat the flat for
Speaker 1: thirty years and it was about the entire thirty is
Speaker 1: making it like this, and his friends the family said it.
Speaker 1: You know, it changed over the years as well, so
Speaker 1: he updated it. So's other things below it. But they've
Speaker 1: given it listed to status, so it's there forever and
Speaker 1: been preserved for all time.
Speaker 2: Perhaps so. My first proper career job was doing street
Speaker 2: theater and I moved into this house called one O one.
Speaker 2: It was nowhere near on this scale at all, but
Speaker 2: lots of murieals, lots of paper. The landlady Sue, who's
Speaker 2: still a very dear friend. Her current house has just
Speaker 2: got beautiful paintings all over. There's just like vines going
Speaker 2: up the staircases. It's all handpag nowhere near on this scale.
Speaker 1: But that house got closed down and they all left
Speaker 1: it and it's st been turned into student flats. So
Speaker 1: I'm really glad that this person's had their legacy preserved
Speaker 1: because that's it's just stunning to me.
Speaker 2: I just I love it. I think who needs more
Speaker 2: magnolia walls? Me?
Speaker 1: To be honest, I would I would probably stay there
Speaker 1: if as a B and B for a night.
Speaker 2: Why I could not live there? I love it? Well,
Speaker 2: moving on. You have a bath in your bedroom? I
Speaker 2: do have a bath in my bedroom, because.
Speaker 1: You believe it's in nineteen seventies. Do you have a
Speaker 1: rubber duck in your bath?
Speaker 2: I don't have a rubber duck. No, because I'm not
Speaker 2: a child. Say that now.
Speaker 1: So this is the story about the little rubber ducky
Speaker 1: that could. Okay, okay, So this rubber ducky was released
Speaker 1: as part of a world record record attempt that released
Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty thousand rubber ducks into the sea.
Speaker 2: OK, so not great for the environment.
Speaker 1: Total we went man gives a chance, Right, This rubber
Speaker 1: duck managed to get from Dublin to Scotland right over
Speaker 1: the course of eighteen years. Yeah, a little rubber duck
Speaker 1: that went basically it was released as part of this
Speaker 1: big record attempt and traveled over four hundred miles around
Speaker 1: the north of the UK.
Speaker 2: Well, how do we know that's the route? If it
Speaker 2: took eighteen years, it could have dipped over to America
Speaker 2: and come back. It's on the World Tour. Yeah, it's
Speaker 2: gone to America. It's gone down the Grand Canal, it's
Speaker 2: gone down a Ribbon Nile. You'd never know an eighteen
Speaker 2: years unless it had GPS so you could track it.
Speaker 2: Did it? No? I didn't have, so you only know
Speaker 2: where it set off and where it ended up. You
Speaker 2: don't know how it got there. You're just presuming it
Speaker 2: bobbed it. I would have thought he got there. Question,
Speaker 2: I didn't.
Speaker 1: I didn't draw the map, so I'm saying I did
Speaker 1: it traveled for at least I mean the Royal Royalty
Speaker 1: off with his head head right, you old queen.
Speaker 2: Who you call it old? Right?
Speaker 1: So two thousand and five it went around and it
Speaker 1: was found by a thirteen year old boy and his
Speaker 1: dog who are out walking on the beach.
Speaker 2: Which I thought was brilliant.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, there's a little rubber ducky that could miss smile.
Speaker 1: It's like, well, we do have the duck race in Manchester,
Speaker 1: don't we, But we don't release them into the sea
Speaker 1: where they can kill tolls.
Speaker 2: Well where did they get do they managed to capture
Speaker 2: them all before they go out to They all released
Speaker 2: into an actual river that does go through the sea. Yeah,
Speaker 2: but they're caught at the end.
Speaker 1: They fence off because you don't want lots of plastic
Speaker 1: ducks ending in the sea because that's littering.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but two thousand and five, different time. Wow. Yeah,
Speaker 2: And if you.
Speaker 1: Like to release things into the sea that you know,
Speaker 1: really you shouldn't, why not share that with us?
Speaker 2: We are at the cod.
Speaker 1: TV on social media and that brings us nicely to
Speaker 1: our story of the week. You're an honorary Northern, aren't you.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, adopted, thoroughly adopted. Have you ever heard
Speaker 1: the phrase have you got your time on your cock?
Speaker 1: What does that mean to you? That means to me
Speaker 1: a very old and funny justperk at her.
Speaker 2: Its sketch. Okay to me. The time? What's the time?
Speaker 1: Well, this is the Norwegians who have decided that they
Speaker 1: want more time on their clock because they've petitioned that
Speaker 1: the rest of the world will allow them to have
Speaker 1: a new time zone which has thirteen hours on the clock.
Speaker 2: It's a twenty six hour day.
Speaker 1: Why pretty much all of those hours are dark anyway.
Speaker 2: And that's the thing.
Speaker 1: What they've said is it would encourage people to have
Speaker 1: more of a family focused time. Okay, Okay, the hours
Speaker 1: would be a little bit shorter. Okay, So they're not
Speaker 1: going to go wildly, I think. But the tan said that, Look,
Speaker 1: we think that if we had a short twenty six
Speaker 1: hour day, it would encourage people to spend time with
Speaker 1: their family and go out when it's light.
Speaker 2: So it's not that they're trying to put more time
Speaker 2: in the day, it's just how they're chopping that time exactly. Okay, Okay.
Speaker 1: When asked about what impacts they think that could have
Speaker 1: and travel and that sort of thing, they've gone.
Speaker 2: I said, okay, so how else do you think you could.
Speaker 1: Implement it, and it's just an idea we've had because
Speaker 1: it's not the entirety of Norway. It's one particular region
Speaker 1: of Norway that want this. Okay, it's the northern area
Speaker 1: of Norway that want it. So the ones that's close
Speaker 1: to the North Pole, the ones that get the longest
Speaker 1: summer of the dad shorts winters, and it's that we want.
Speaker 2: We just want.
Speaker 1: It happens to have been brought out by a mayor
Speaker 1: who may or may not be up for re election,
Speaker 1: and it's great.
Speaker 2: You can't really see that being a vote winner. Really
Speaker 2: Apparently it's doing. It's very popular.
Speaker 1: Wow, an idea, but when people are being asked, so
Speaker 1: what does that mean, he is gone, So there's not
Speaker 1: much hope of it getting through.
Speaker 2: See. I lived in Finland for a little bit, so
Speaker 2: I've experienced the twenty three hours worth of darkness and
Speaker 2: an hour's worth the sun and flips it. Yeah, someone
Speaker 2: don't get dark and it was just really settled me out.
Speaker 2: I loved it. Settled me out. Yeah, I didn't like
Speaker 2: I was going to sleep at the right time, having
Speaker 2: a full night sleep, waking up at the right time
Speaker 2: inside like you know, as you go from light to dark,
Speaker 2: and it just screwing up your body clock and don't
Speaker 2: make you wait, oh, just it does. Mine not always
Speaker 2: awake up five in the morning. Well, I'm always awake
Speaker 2: at five o'clock in the morning. But that's because a cat.
Speaker 2: He's nibbling at my toes. Okay, yeah, aggressive pussy waking up,
Speaker 2: pussy wanting feeding in the morning.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I wake up at five in the morning and
Speaker 1: get up and do things, do stuff like a nap afterwards. Well,
Speaker 1: what I thought it was interesting about this entire thing
Speaker 1: is the fact that it's not thought about anyone that
Speaker 1: going why do we not just ask? And so they
Speaker 1: have put in the formal petition to create its new
Speaker 1: time zone.
Speaker 2: To who who's in Greenwich? It's not Greenwich, it's just
Speaker 2: the time zone Greenwich, Yes, but Greenwich. It's it's the
Speaker 2: UN and all that sort of thing that they have
Speaker 2: to agree with. I don't think are in charge Greenwich
Speaker 2: is in charge of time. No it's not. There's there's
Speaker 2: no UN Department of time. There's a Greenwich Department of time.
Speaker 1: And yeah, there's a Greenwich Department of time.
Speaker 2: They invented time.
Speaker 1: They didn't invent time in Greenwich. Time has always been
Speaker 1: a thing. It was standardized in Greenwich. Yes, right, And
Speaker 1: they had.
Speaker 2: A conversation with a couple of other nations, all.
Speaker 1: Proveniently in Europe, and when we should have a time
Speaker 1: zone that's set here because there's a meridian in Paris
Speaker 1: as well, because a time zone it was in Parison.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but that's where it was collaborated and determined, doesn't
Speaker 2: it in Greenwich.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and agreed that it was going to be there
Speaker 1: was going to be the life. I've never heard of
Speaker 1: anything like that being agreed in the UN or that
Speaker 1: they're having a specific function about about that. But they've
Speaker 1: got to ask someone about the kind of create a
Speaker 1: time zone.
Speaker 2: No you can't. So you go talk to Greenwich like
Speaker 2: talking to a child. But that's all from the Buzz
Speaker 2: this week. Thank you, Mike. I love it when I
Speaker 2: break your brain. Stick around as we have coming up
Speaker 2: our game to play in Game of the Week, welcome back,
Speaker 2: and yes you're fortunate enough to be watching Chewing the Cuds.
Speaker 2: So now we're going to play a game called Mighty Interesting.
Speaker 2: And this one is for the man who once accidentally
Speaker 2: ate all the snacks that we're supposed to be for
Speaker 2: the studio. You ate all the snacks. I was hungry,
Speaker 2: and I don't day of the week. I have some factoids. Factoids, well,
Speaker 2: I have some factoids that I've been opposed to you
Speaker 2: as questions. Okay, So.
Speaker 1: In the US, approximately how many people identify as being
Speaker 1: gay and or lesbian? Oh?
Speaker 2: How many people are in those countries in the US.
Speaker 2: That's one country? Well, yeah, how many people are in
Speaker 2: that one country? More than one less than a trillion?
Speaker 2: Mm hmm. I'm going to say, well, accept a percentage.
Speaker 2: I could give a percentage, I would. I would say
Speaker 2: that it is.
Speaker 1: Seven percent one percent, Okay, actually eight point eight ooh,
Speaker 1: I wasn't far off.
Speaker 2: That's mighty interesting. It is.
Speaker 1: That is just the people that they identify as gay
Speaker 1: and lesbian instant clear I'm bisexual and that sort.
Speaker 2: Of thing, which I think is a bit of a shame.
Speaker 2: But they're still interesting, not all the closset cases. So
Speaker 2: it's probably a lot lot.
Speaker 1: More like the people I've thought pose the question of
Speaker 1: people that identify as a lot of people that keep
Speaker 1: it quick. So in the US, we're going to stay
Speaker 1: in the US, we stay at the pond, right, approximately
Speaker 1: How many children do you think are being raised by
Speaker 1: same sex couples right now?
Speaker 2: How many children? I don't think it's probably that much,
Speaker 2: because they're still quite conservative in America, and if they're
Speaker 2: still wibbling about abortion laws, they're probably going to be
Speaker 2: even more wibly about same sex couples. So let's say
Speaker 2: a million. A million?
Speaker 1: Oh, well, don't you it's actually the expects approximately a
Speaker 1: million children to be raised by the same sex couples.
Speaker 2: Wow, that is actually mighty interesting.
Speaker 1: How many Americans do you believe identify as a side
Speaker 1: in a gentleman population of case, as a what as
Speaker 1: a side? A side?
Speaker 2: No? I actually don't know. Okay, it's a side piece.
Speaker 1: No aside is a someone that doesn't isn't top or
Speaker 1: bottom because they don't engage in penetrative sex.
Speaker 2: No idea. I can't conceive of the idea. Okay, about
Speaker 2: one in three?
Speaker 1: Really, yes, about one in three identify as a side
Speaker 1: or do not engage in anal sex or.
Speaker 2: Penetrate of sex.
Speaker 1: In Which country do we believe that there is a
Speaker 1: growing homosexual population that is accepted.
Speaker 2: Well, all your question so far has been about America,
Speaker 2: So I'm going to say America.
Speaker 1: No, oh no, it's actually China, and people have put
Speaker 1: us down to their one child policy.
Speaker 2: To the what policy, their one child policy?
Speaker 1: Oh, had one children, so that basically you still need
Speaker 1: to enjoy yourselves. And so they say, well, this way
Speaker 1: they can still have fun. And so there's a growing
Speaker 1: acceptance of homosexuality.
Speaker 2: Well, that is mighty interesting. I don't know if this
Speaker 2: is an apocryphal story or not, but it was when
Speaker 2: a friend of mine came out to their parents, their
Speaker 2: grand and their parents going, oh, no, the grandparent is there,
Speaker 2: and she turned around to the mother and said, I
Speaker 2: don't know, why are youre complaining about your son having
Speaker 2: anal sex? How do you think that you're an only child?
Speaker 2: That's mighty interesting. Anal sex the original contraception.
Speaker 1: So swallowing m this is true, which was the first
Speaker 1: US novel to touch on the subject of homosexuality, which
Speaker 1: was the first US novel to touch on the subject
Speaker 1: of home.
Speaker 2: Fixtuality, that was touching on the subject, not touching an
Speaker 2: m oh. Little Women have rent in America.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a great American novel, Little Women, I think Okay,
Speaker 1: it was actually Bayard Taylor's eighteen seventy Ooh seventy do
Speaker 1: it Joseph and his friend?
Speaker 2: Oo, that is mighty interesting. When you said touching on,
Speaker 2: I thought like it was maybe a throw away line
Speaker 2: and something suggested in The Great Gatsby or something. But
Speaker 2: that sounds like it's actually fully about homosexuality. Yeah, it's
Speaker 2: it's it's a very very gay book. Okay. So the Drag.
Speaker 1: The Drag okay is the first play with gay male
Speaker 1: contact to be produced in the United States.
Speaker 2: Okay? Who was it written and produced by?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 2: Truman Capoti? No, I would have thought true, like that's
Speaker 2: a Truman was very very gay. He didn't necessarily write
Speaker 2: about gay things. Okay, it was.
Speaker 1: It was very much a telling stories about other people
Speaker 1: and other parts of life.
Speaker 2: Who tried to deflect.
Speaker 1: It was May West, May West, May West in Sea.
Speaker 2: I knew I liked that woman. That's mighty interesting. Okay.
Speaker 2: The first gay bookstore in the world.
Speaker 1: Was found in nineteen sixty seven in New York City.
Speaker 2: Oh what was its name? Oh? I think I know
Speaker 2: this one, or at least I've heard of it, but
Speaker 2: it's escaping me or I might be confusing it for
Speaker 2: the one that I know of in La So. No,
Speaker 2: the name's gone. I can't remember. You're even I guess
Speaker 2: I know. No, I can't, I can't. I can't remember.
Speaker 1: There's only one thing in the world worse than being
Speaker 1: a bookshop, and that is not.
Speaker 2: Being a bookshop. I should give you a hint. I
Speaker 2: can't remember. Okay, it's the Oscar Memorial Bookshop. Oh, that's
Speaker 2: not what I was thinking of at all. Thinking of
Speaker 2: it was something like the something something store, you know,
Speaker 2: a very matter of fact description, like the magazine shop
Speaker 2: or something like that. It was like, I can't remember, Yeah,
Speaker 2: I couldn't. That's not what I was thinking of, Okay,
Speaker 2: But it is mighty interesting that it is okay.
Speaker 1: Who was the first openly gay Best Actor nominee in
Speaker 1: the history of the Academy Awards.
Speaker 2: Mmmmm, give you a clue.
Speaker 1: It was a brit a brit I was thinking Marlon
Speaker 1: Brando because he was quite you know, he didn't hide it,
Speaker 1: did he. But it was not the first openly gay.
Speaker 1: He wasn't very good at hiding it, but he wasn't
Speaker 1: openly gay. He wasn't going my name is and I
Speaker 1: am gay.
Speaker 2: I think he's probably more than if you were going
Speaker 2: to say that about it. Was probably more openly bisexual anyway,
Speaker 2: A bart eryld thin Nigel Hawthorne.
Speaker 1: What so, here's the star of the film The Madness
Speaker 1: of King George from nineteen ninety five.
Speaker 2: I didn't know he was one of ours, you know, No,
Speaker 2: I didn't. Okay, what am I confusing him for Nigel Havers?
Speaker 2: You might be convincing anyway, that's mighty interesting.
Speaker 1: It is, okay, the name of our our community lgbtq
Speaker 1: I a plus.
Speaker 2: Okay, what was its first incarnation?
Speaker 1: I just prefer to use the word queer to be honest.
Speaker 1: I know some people don't like it, but I find
Speaker 1: him it's more empowering. But I didn't know there was
Speaker 1: anything other than LGBT. Okay, So it's first called GLBT. However,
Speaker 1: LGBT came much more popular in the late eighties and
Speaker 1: early nineties because of the lesbian support of the gay
Speaker 1: men who were suffering in the AIDS pandemic. Enemy So
Speaker 1: it became a lot more of a way of honoring
Speaker 1: our lesbian sisters who were supporting the gay community and
Speaker 1: putting them first in LGBT. Oh, Okay, that's quite cute
Speaker 1: and mighty interesting, But that's all I have.
Speaker 2: For you today. Stick around as next. It's Mike in
Speaker 2: that science that is. Welcome back to cheering the cud.
Speaker 2: And now we learned something we didn't need to know.
Speaker 2: It's Mike in that science that.
Speaker 5: Is, that's science, that is nomics when you're a child,
Speaker 5: all those many many many many many years ago.
Speaker 2: Oh, you're rude, you are because it's true.
Speaker 1: All right.
Speaker 2: What was your favorite pudding after after food?
Speaker 1: Oh mm, I do like pud h but like I
Speaker 1: couldn't pick a favorite.
Speaker 2: Angel delight.
Speaker 1: You say, oh, well, that's good because the way that.
Speaker 2: The way that angel you were going to go for
Speaker 2: sticky toffee or rice tapio no tapioca. Tapioca was the worst.
Speaker 2: Tapiocre is horrible. But angel delight, I can you can?
Speaker 2: You can tell me an angel delight? Okay, cool chocolate
Speaker 2: angel light was your favorite? That's good. So the rawberry
Speaker 2: I liked chocolate, chocolate.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I loved chocolate strawberry Angel Delight chocolate saying chocolate
Speaker 1: strawberry anges like chocolate angels Delight was your favorite?
Speaker 2: Okay? Yes, read the auto man right.
Speaker 1: So the way that angel like always were always fascinated
Speaker 1: me as a child because it was something you just
Speaker 1: added milk to weighted and it became firm.
Speaker 2: Mm hmm.
Speaker 1: Well right, and it's just a shame that that doesn't
Speaker 1: happen in real life. Add milk and oh no it
Speaker 1: does anyway. So it happened because of a chemical reaction.
Speaker 1: And so what we're going to do is we're going.
Speaker 2: To make Angel delight. We're going to make Angel delight.
Speaker 1: We're going to make Angel Delight, so a self thickening liquid.
Speaker 2: There's a joke in the sudden, and I'm not going
Speaker 2: to go for it. If you take a lot of
Speaker 2: that also works.
Speaker 1: So that's again, if you take a lot of you
Speaker 1: know about zinc, zinc, Yeah, it takes zinc come thicker.
Speaker 2: Now that is mighty. Did you not know that? That
Speaker 2: bit's finished? So I'm just going to take down.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you just have to carefully don't take too much
Speaker 1: sink because it has other impacts. But yeah, anyway, so
Speaker 1: what we're going to do is we're going to make
Speaker 1: Angel the Light, okay, and then we're going to make
Speaker 1: it so we can eat it too.
Speaker 2: Oh so science sounds a snack.
Speaker 1: Science and a snack because everybody loves puppets.
Speaker 2: That's the wrong phrase.
Speaker 1: And so the first thing we're going to do is
Speaker 1: we're going to add our flavor.
Speaker 2: Okay, okay.
Speaker 1: Now, the flair is chocolate, as I've said repeatedly, and
Speaker 1: that's this stuff here.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 1: What this is is this is ground up dairy milk, freeze,
Speaker 1: dried ground up dairy milk.
Speaker 2: Other chocolate bars are available.
Speaker 1: So what waits to is just just pop a teaspoonful
Speaker 1: of that in tea bowl. Okay, okay, Oh, I like
Speaker 1: mixing powders.
Speaker 2: Yeah, No, one involves a rolled up twenty. The next
Speaker 2: thing we're going to add.
Speaker 1: It's not saying it's not true is one of the
Speaker 1: thickening agents die phosphate, die phosphate di phosphate, which is
Speaker 1: well which is Welsh phosphate welshs.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 1: And that's the one to the right of your your
Speaker 1: your chop lity chocolate okay okay. And you want literally
Speaker 1: a small amount, so you just want like a pinch,
Speaker 1: a pin tip, just the tip really on it.
Speaker 2: Okay. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So it's actually so doing phosphates and diphosphates and they're
Speaker 1: already mixed together.
Speaker 2: Okay, okay. The next thing we need is an emulsifier. Okay,
Speaker 2: which is proprane glyceol and esters of.
Speaker 1: Fatty acids, fatty acid fatty acids die. There's essence of
Speaker 1: fatty acids, okay, right, And it's half a tea spoon
Speaker 1: of that.
Speaker 2: You want half half a teaspoon of that. It's very technical,
Speaker 2: all of that. It is okay.
Speaker 1: Now that if you're having the strawberry one, the strawberry
Speaker 1: flavoring would be just strawberry flavors.
Speaker 2: I wouldn't have a color. So you'd have to hand
Speaker 2: beat food as well.
Speaker 1: Okay, because beat it's a great flavor for strawberry. But
Speaker 1: because we're doing chocolate, we don't need to do that.
Speaker 1: But we do need to add an antiq caking agent.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, and that's because nobody likes cake. Apparently, what
Speaker 1: does it stops it becoming slidified in the packet on
Speaker 1: the shelf, and if it gets a bit humid or
Speaker 1: hot or cold and stuff.
Speaker 2: It doesn't just become a mush. So when you mix
Speaker 2: in the milk or you're just whipping this stuff out.
Speaker 1: No, no, no, because the anti caking agent only works
Speaker 1: of a certain pH Okay. So what actually happens is
Speaker 1: when we make when you make into the we is
Speaker 1: slightly acidic.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 1: You add the milk and it takes down the pH Okay,
Speaker 1: and so the anti caking agent stops working.
Speaker 2: Oh yes, it's clever. Oh that is clever. Okay.
Speaker 1: But because we're doing it manually, it might mean it
Speaker 1: fizzes a little bit where we put it together.
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, Just so if you only need the ant
Speaker 2: caking thing to stop it get caking when it's in
Speaker 2: the package and we're just getting on with it and
Speaker 2: making it straight away. We're not packaging up and selling
Speaker 2: it to a shop. Do we need it?
Speaker 1: Well, I'm following what's in it. I didn't want to
Speaker 1: not put it in case it stopped anything happening.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 1: So again the same sort of thing that we use
Speaker 1: for the first one, about just the tip, just the tip,
Speaker 1: the tip, okay, anti caking agent.
Speaker 2: Mm hmm okay. And that's silicon dioxide. It's not so
Speaker 2: dioxide in this.
Speaker 1: And then the last thing we need is milk, powder
Speaker 1: and calcium carbonate, which is your last one. Grated cheese,
Speaker 1: then grated cheese.
Speaker 2: Grated cheese, calcium carbonate. You get calcium from cheese. Calcium carbonates,
Speaker 2: things that are in antacids and stuff.
Speaker 1: Okay, cool, you can see why I don't do the
Speaker 1: science or the anything really right, mix those powders together
Speaker 1: a little bit, so we've got a good mix.
Speaker 2: Okay, mm hmm. And then if you have a look
Speaker 2: at it, does that look like instant angel delight to you?
Speaker 2: It does?
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a good sign. Okay that we're gonna add
Speaker 1: our milk.
Speaker 2: Can I go get my bank card? So we're just.
Speaker 1: Gonna add our milk now, Okay. Now, remember as I
Speaker 1: said when you first, we're going to use all of it,
Speaker 1: but you add a little bit at a time.
Speaker 2: Okay, Okay.
Speaker 1: I love the fact you always get me to play
Speaker 1: around with fluids above all the electrics.
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, I do. You are trying to kill me basically, yes,
Speaker 2: and failing so you can make it look like a
Speaker 2: suicide if you get me to do all the science
Speaker 2: but himself. All right, that's all. It is fizzing a
Speaker 2: little bit, a little bit.
Speaker 1: But that's because we're doing so that the exact weights
Speaker 1: and things are slightly different. Because I didn't have a
Speaker 1: set of scales that you could do quarters of grams on.
Speaker 2: They don't own that sort of thing. You should have
Speaker 2: asked me. I know you do.
Speaker 1: So now that's all mixed. Do need to add a
Speaker 1: little bit more?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, so once you got into a paste, add
Speaker 1: the rest of milk. You want all the milk in there,
Speaker 1: all the milk?
Speaker 2: Ye? Is that not? Just going to make it really ready?
Speaker 2: But it always starts off running, so correct quantity mine.
Speaker 1: It's actually starting to thicken up now. I actually feel
Speaker 1: it getting a little bit thicker. Some of it's gone
Speaker 1: white and some of it got brain. Yeah, because it's
Speaker 1: the emulsifier. It takes a little while and then just
Speaker 1: pop it back in tea glass.
Speaker 2: Oh good, you are really trying to kill me? Why
Speaker 2: just pour it. I'm going to pour it over that
Speaker 2: so I don't die, and you didn't die. It didn't
Speaker 2: spill any.
Speaker 1: That's because I'm talented, That's exactly it. So what we
Speaker 1: do now is we just leave that. It needs to
Speaker 1: go into the fridge for about five ten minutes, kay,
Speaker 1: for the reaction to work. Okay, And what will happen
Speaker 1: is all those chemicals are going to basically just expand,
Speaker 1: and as the actual chemical forms expand and they take
Speaker 1: on more liquid, that's what.
Speaker 2: Makes it get thicker.
Speaker 1: Ooh, that's creating a lovely little dessert for us, because
Speaker 1: that's science.
Speaker 6: Size that science that is.
Speaker 2: So we just got to wait for those to set. Now,
Speaker 2: how long do we have to wait? Ten minutes? You're hungry? Okay,
Speaker 2: you started talking about dessert and I like dessert. Okay,
Speaker 2: I deserve dessert.
Speaker 1: Okay, sure, sure, that's my remor let's just speed up
Speaker 1: time a little bit.
Speaker 2: Okay, So that should have been enough time. Okay.
Speaker 1: So what people don't realize on the set is these
Speaker 1: little governments behind us.
Speaker 2: A little mini fridge is so if you have a
Speaker 2: look in your little fridge, you should have your age delight.
Speaker 1: Sure ah, awesome, Okay, there's a little spoon for you
Speaker 1: there too.
Speaker 2: Set Okay, so oh that is well done. Delicious. Man, oh,
Speaker 2: it's done a good job there. How do we were
Speaker 2: fiddling about with earlier? Science? Is amazing stuff. You know,
Speaker 2: it's tasty.
Speaker 1: Anyway, that's almost the end of the show for now.
Speaker 1: Remember to join on our social media that the good
Speaker 1: TV on all the usual places. I'm not going to
Speaker 1: stop eating this.
Speaker 2: Mm hmmm, wow, mm hmmm by.
Speaker 1: Yeah, exact same time.
Speaker 2: But it is actually quite good.
