Chapter 3: What challenges did Joe face during the event?
Because Petra's ill. Oh, no. And I hope she doesn't mind me saying, but I walked in, she's been ill. She had the thing I had, and now she's... Right, shall I say this? I said to her this morning, you didn't think I was as ill as I was making out, did you? And she went, no, I didn't.
Just what she needed, right in the heart of it.
Just what she needed. As I said, she was so tired and so she went, no. I was like, why did I say that? Why am I selling you? So unlikable.
Similar to the, quite similar to the electric car business about a minute ago. Well, unlikable. No, as in, I don't mind saying my car's safe. You do. Horrible, mate. See, I know. All right, mate. Good Monday morning. You agreed I was horrible quick. You're over your cold then? 99%, 95%. Lovely. Yeah. And now he's throwing his weight around, bringing the police.
Having a go at his ill wife. Fucking what's what? Look, can hear her coughing. She's not good.
Oh, I hate it. My sister's right in the middle of it. I hate it. It's when you're not in it, you're like, yeah, I was giving it the big one. Text my sister, go, it'll be a vague memory soon. It's all cool.
Which doesn't need pointing out is unlikable. just if anyone were talking we're just if we're on that route of who's likeable you ain't left it yeah why do you go i've no It's not an odd thing to say, be a distant memory, because you did that to me. Where's that come from? Distant memory? Where you went, ah, sort of talking about not, did you? I don't know what made that up.
No, I think it's very comforting for the person involved.

Chapter 4: How did Joe's back injury affect his experience?
Very comforting. I was asking where you got that angle on colds. Life experience.
A deep, rich life experience. Just a life experience. I bet you use it and then feel bad and never use it again. No, I'm not using that.
Well, that's what you would say, isn't it? No, I can guarantee I'll pay you £1,000. Why? What's wrong with saying it'd be a distant memory? It's just not something I'd say.
Doesn't mean that's right, right or wrong.
No, I'm not saying that. You said you'll say it and I said no. It's something I wouldn't say.
Fucking hell.
I came to this.
I showed you my office. I had a big clear out. You said it looks a fucking state. Well, no, I just saw stuff on the floor. Well, it's only my charger. There's my exercise ball. That's it. My guitars are up on their stands. It does look nice. Well, it looks better. Very nice too. Yeah. You should have seen it yesterday morning.
How long did it take you to... Well, we got the shed up, so we loaded all the stuff from here into the shed. Did you put the stuff in the shed well? Was it like easy or everything accessible?

Chapter 5: What was the atmosphere like at the tennis court opening?
No, that was just saying, caveating, this is nothing against anyone, this is only what was going on in my head we're talking about. I had to do that tennis opening thing, opening the tennis court. And... Wonderful. When was this? Friday night? Friday night. And then on Sunday morning, I had to start the Brighton half marathon.
Okay. Bloody hell. So almost like a dress rehearsal on Friday night.
Yeah. It just fell on the same weekend and it was... Yeah, well. Well, tell us all about it. Well, Friday afternoon, came around very quickly. No, say probably Wednesday, Petra was like, oh, obviously we've got that tennis thing on Friday. I was like, that Friday? Yeah, yeah, cool. Shit, shit. So-and-so said, if we can get there, maybe six. I pushed back on them.
They said, doing a couple of jokes, I pushed back on that. I was like, what?
Hang on. So what is it? Is it a tennis club opening or like a refurbishment or something?
So basically, it's like public courts up here. They've had floodlights put in. Petra plays up there regularly.
Great.
The floodlights have been open for a few weeks, but they wanted to do an official opening the other day. I don't really play tennis very much.
But Petra said... They didn't show off, so... Right, I'm out.

Chapter 6: How did Joe's perspective on community involvement change?
Come on, then.
Up you go to the tennis course. Up you go in your best... Oh, fucking hell. Just out of interest. Do you want to hear what actually happened? Yeah, of course I do.
Of course I do. I want to hear what I want to hear, son. And I'm going to be force-fed your shite.
I'll say, what I'll do, at any chance I'll get, I'll mention something like showing off or centre of attention or me or now it's my turn.
We're sure that you're uncomfortable about this whole thing because that's the core of it.
Yeah, but... Yeah. So it's... It's a tricky thing to talk about and I haven't got anywhere near the courts. Really tricky when the person who does it hates doing it.
Yeah. But keeps doing it. That's the tricky... Tricky for me. Fucking eggshells. Right. I just have interest. If Petra's like, oh, I've got to open that. tennis uh club on friday and sort of cut the ribbon do would you be like how wow
But Petra, right, okay, so Petra, they said, oh, say she's like won a tournament or something. She's won the ladies tennis tournament. They said, oh, would you open the thing? She'd go, oh, just, you know, they've asked and I thought, oh, yeah, come on, let's go up there and we'll have to see everyone. It would just be a different vibe to do it.
Yeah, what about if something to do with you, like the Park Run or maybe like Spotify podcasting HQ have asked Petra to come up It's not linked to it, just linked to it through you. I was just thinking, if Naomi did it, I think I'd stand there really proud. I'd go, look at her. She's lovely. How we got here, I would say, as well. How's Petra standing at the Spotify HQ of podcasting?

Chapter 7: What humorous moments occurred during the ceremony?
This is true. This is true. I had really badly hurt my back and I was struggling to walk. And I was trying to be pretty positive.
Sorry, but the next day you ran the half marathon?
On Sunday, I ran the half marathon. Friday night, we played tennis at four, me and Petra and a couple of other people. And during that, about 10 minutes in, I pulled my back worse, basically. And I had to pull out. And it was just, it was quite painful. And I wasn't, I know you're going to say like it was psychosomatic or something, but it wasn't. That was where you were going.
So you ran it on Sunday, did you? So that was where that, you were doing the maths to Sunday going, can't have been that bad, right? Right? Correct? Correct? Carry on. Answer me. Carry on, please. That's what you were doing, though, weren't you? Yes, yes, that's what I was doing.

Like, I think, but also my attitude wasn't great.
Yeah. So what was your main concern? Just being front and centre?
I was saying things like, I'm not, right, I'll tell you, can we go back a few, like, I went through a bit of a phase of going, do stuff for the community.
I thought you were going to say fencing. I went through a bit of a phase where I said I was going to be a fencer.
It was around that time. And I was a bit like, come on, let's just do good for other people. You know, put yourself out there, help out. Stop talking about it, just do it. It was a bit of that. So come on, like, yeah, let's...
