40.841 - 41.422 David

What's going on?

0

42.824 - 43.025 Naomi

What?

0

43.706 - 44.046 David

I don't know.

44.086 - 62.057 Naomi

You were like... No, no, I was looking at my clock. Oh, right. Well, it looked like you'd... I don't know, like you'd done... Honestly, it looked like you'd... Done a naughty. Well, like, I know you were sitting in your wheel or something, where you were kind of... Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm.

62.077 - 62.337 David

Mm-mm. Mm-mm.

63.413 - 75.566 Naomi

Close down the browser I was reading and focus on David. How are you? Yeah, I'm all right.

75.626 - 78.55 David

You? Got anything to say?

Chapter 2: Why did David and Naomi love the old couple during the viewing?

467.471 - 471.517 Naomi

This is the official one. This is the official one. Have you enjoyed the official one?

0

472.118 - 475.723 Joe

I have, but there was no, I didn't feel a wow.

0

476.716 - 509.887 Naomi

We talk. We leave and we talk. Yeah. And I say, I like that road there. Ears prick up left, right and centre. Are we doing one of our... I lean against a tree. Shall we do one of our noughties? I turn and say, should we do a naughty? Should we do a naughty viewing? We've done a good viewing. No. Right. You go now, me up. You go to the park. No. So we get in the car and we drive up that road.

0

509.907 - 520.252 Naomi

I like this road more. This is the road I like. We go up. We turn around. We come back. We go out. We come back.

0

520.272 - 521.554 Joe

Not enough. We go up. It's not enough.

521.574 - 540.201 Naomi

We turn around. We see a man. Does he look vulnerable? We see a man. And I say... Go and talk to him. I'll stay here. You go and talk to him.

540.221 - 541.022 Unknown

Did I say that?

541.122 - 574.512 Naomi

Or did Naomi just... I think I said it. I think it was me. If Naomi said it, she probably went... She's not like that. She just went, yeah, great. She bounds out. I go, I'm fucking going. I suddenly had the confidence. We walk up the drive. You're egging each other on. We love it. She's as bad. Now, listen to this. Here's your little twisty. What's it like living around here? What? No.

575.073 - 590.172 Naomi

Oh, it's very nice. We love it. We love the area. The road, the trees. You've got just by the downs, just by the moors, aren't you? It's such a lovely spot to get all that.

Chapter 3: What challenges do people face when deciding to buy a house?

828.506 - 841.438 Naomi

Shall we knock on the door? OK, what did happen there? No, it was back and forth or was it straight in? I think I said no. I think I went, no, no. Off the back of the pod or just...

0

842.802 - 852.413 Joe

I don't want to say that case it was the other way around and Nomi said no-no. As it probably was. I think one of us went, no, no, not now.

0

853.154 - 885.263 Naomi

But anyway, Nomi went. Are you all right with her always starting it? I just think she's a lovely woman. Yeah, she is. It doesn't mean she has to be the one who's... Well, I wouldn't invite me in. Surely you're nice enough to not be a threat. Yeah, but she's, you know, she's less of a threat, isn't she? What about the menacing fella in the car, bloke in the car behind her?

0

886.085 - 896.458 Naomi

That's the bit I find weird. You go, oh, hello. Why is your husband in the car then? How do you get over the weirdness of that?

0

896.478 - 904.652 Joe

Okay, family, we bring all the family, all the sextuplets. Come on, everyone, let's all go up to the front door. No, one. Why?

904.672 - 930.291 Naomi

No, no, don't bring in it. No, it's the other one gets called over. That's the official, unofficial way you do it. Well, that's the way we do it. And it seems the fucking way. It's just there's a weird bit where you go, oh, really? Now my husband will join us. Yeah, well, that's when I'm like, what? Oh, sorry, I'm busy. Oh, right. I didn't arrange this. Yeah, that's what I mean.

930.612 - 950.253 Naomi

Is that what you do at that point? You're almost like, oh. Yeah, I didn't even know you'd left the car. What's going on? Am I now going in your home for the 20th time this month? That's what I mean. I knew there'd be some little... Because you can't be going... Oh, not at all. No, I'm busying myself. Yeah, yeah. And then you go, wind the window, go. Sorry?

950.353 - 970.914 Naomi

Yeah, what's going... Oh, I was just chatting to this lady. We're going in. Why would we do that? We're going in. We've hit the mother load. But can I say... As soon as I walk up the steps to the door, what a gentleman.

973.877 - 980.103 Joe

Honestly, the loveliest, loveliest. Already he's talking about the tree and he does a little joke with us.

Chapter 4: What uncomfortable experiences did Joe encounter in a laddie environment?

1225.116 - 1227.46 David

Just bring it down a little bit.

0

1227.48 - 1228.522 Naomi

Bring it down a notch.

0

1228.662 - 1229.463 David

You do it great.

0

1229.483 - 1273.84 Unknown

Here we come a-walking Walking up your drive I'm standing behind you You're talking to my wife. She gives enough to go inside. A casualty of beer. Here we come, we're walking.

0

1273.86 - 1274.28

Enter without fear.

1275.783 - 1305.485 Unknown

Here we come, assume. Looking at your drive. Looking in your home. Standing behind the car. Looking in your dining room. You're talking to my wife. Looking at your walls. She gives enough to go inside.

1305.505 - 1306.867

Looking in your downstairs toilet. Occasionally a bit.

1306.887 - 1339.588 Unknown

Looking at your chairs. Looking at your bed, looking at your bed, looking at your bed, looking at your bed. Looking at your pillows, looking at your do

1355.043 - 1385.32 Naomi

So I can't tell you what a bloody delightful couple they were. Yeah, yeah. An elderly couple. Just wonderful. Went out into the garden, had a look around the garden, and I had this moment. I sort of zoned out from what was being said. I just looked, and I went, I'm putting an offer in. And then I went, no, I'm not, because I'm not in the position to. I'm nowhere near.

Chapter 5: How has Joe's confidence changed since turning 50?

1748.118 - 1758.708 Naomi

Yeah, but then if they're off, whatever they offer, whatever the top offer is, go, all right, but 50 grand less. No, I want to go 30 grand under, and then they offer 30 grand below.

0

1758.748 - 1764.433 Joe

I go, great, we're 60 grand down. Great. I don't need it.

0

1765.308 - 1795.354 Naomi

Well, you do. You're buying a new house. It's probably more expensive. Yeah, I don't need it, but they need it more. How do you know? They could have inherited all the money. Yeah. And they go, oh, all right, well, thank you. Yeah. My point is, if you're both offering the same amount and they go, I like that couple that came in here, the guy that liked the cricket, I liked him. And her.

0

1795.414 - 1806.69 Naomi

She wasn't too bad. I like the one who made the initial approach, and then I like the guy who pretended he was sat in the car, didn't realise what was happening. I like both of them. Yeah.

0

1807.631 - 1827.759 Joe

I want to... I don't feel like I'm really... I want to pinpoint that feeling of, fuck, moving and going, is this where we're... I just feel like you're going, yeah, yeah, it's a bit weird. Because I think it's such a major, I don't know where you're going to, who they are, what I'm going to feel like waking up in the morning looking at that tree.

1828.06 - 1865.356 Naomi

Oh, my God. Get used to it. I've been through it, haven't I? Yeah, I know. Did you not have any reservations? Yeah, but it was mainly about my attachment to the old house. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was like, I'll believe in that. That's been a happy place. And you go, ooh. I know happiness isn't tied up in the house, but you sort of subconsciously go, well, here's some wisdom. Well, thank you. Yeah.

1865.697 - 1886.318 Naomi

You want to go down that pissing route. When I join in, you go, wisdom. I want to get to the nub of it. I don't want you to get to the nub of it. I want to get to the nub of it. So if you start peeling away from those, I want to say wisdom. Take the pissing window.

1886.358 - 1892.464 Joe

It's because I can see your eye flicker when you say something like that. And you go, oh, God, I've said that.

1893.389 - 1896.232 David

I don't know what the fuck I'm saying for stuff.

Chapter 6: What insights did David gain from his latest house viewing?

2189.971 - 2217.865 Naomi

If you don't join in, it's sort of, I think you're really. You create an atmosphere. No, I think people rein it in. Well, they feel uncomfortable, don't they? I knew you'd go down that. Well, it's not that, but you'd go, get your arse in gear, mate. Yeah, and they sort of go, oh, we don't shout, get your arse in gear to him. And then probably general. I took the power back.

0

2225.396 - 2225.857 Joe

Fair goes.

0

2225.877 - 2235.932 Naomi

It was just a weird thing. I just was like, nah, not doing that. None of it was unpleasant. I was just like, I'm not going to be boisterous.

0
0

2238.535 - 2242.713 Naomi

It's just going to be normal. And then it went from there.

2242.753 - 2246.457 Joe

Oh, God, yeah. I like that. I quite like that.

2247.438 - 2273.073 Naomi

It reminded me of football changing rooms. Yeah. God, they were just so good. It had that vibe to it, even though it wasn't anything like it. But I was just like, and I think when I was like 16, I was like, is that how you have to be? You know what I mean? Because you're still learning. Oh, God. God, I'm wrong, is what you think when you're 16. I'm wrong. They're terrific.

2273.794 - 2294.837 Naomi

Is everyone going, I'm wrong? Even the person who said arse in gear, is he going... Well, he didn't actually say arse in gear. That was an example of it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But is he going, God, I'm wrong. I'm going to say arse in gear. Everyone's feeling wrong, aren't they? Well, it's a weird... Right, there's a confidence in one chap... Right. It's real confidence.

2295.379 - 2321.506 Naomi

And I was like, I can see certain people being drawn into that, going, God, I want to be around that. Whereas I was going, I don't want to be anywhere near that. Yeah, well, I got, you know, I kind of think with my Pepe Jeans time, that was all very... Well, if you met Pepe Jeans person now and they were very confident, you'd go, all right, a bit weird.

Chapter 7: How do personal feelings influence house buying decisions?

2549.306 - 2569.956 Naomi

I had a little feeling then. I was like, God, if I was him then, I was like, there's still... This is nice. You said something to me about a year ago that really stuck with me. Something along the lines of... No, you were right, but it was like, because I do that, and you went... I think I was thinking everyone thinks... What, what, what, what?

0

2570.477 - 2594.836 Naomi

I was doing something like that, going, oh, this person's probably really excited about us or something. And you went, who gives a fuck about us? And I just went, I was like... Yeah, but that was me being a punk. You've got to see through that. I do feel like... That was me being punky. I do forget how punky you are. Can I say one thing before we end?

0

2595.217 - 2614.124 Joe

I watched a podcast that's now a vodcast and I just want to tell everyone we are not going to vodcast. I'm telling you now. It ain't happening. But the one I watched, they were two comedians and they were a little bit dangerous.

0

2614.505 - 2620.333 Naomi

Can you text me? God, I'm excited.

0

2623.03 - 2624.532 David

They're a little bit dangerous.

2624.552 - 2636.206 Naomi

They're a little bit dangerous. What the hell have we heard of it? They didn't do anything. In fact, it was good. You know, it was good. I thought it was good fun. What's your point, though?

2636.226 - 2665.016 Joe

My point was their angle on things, the way they were looking at life and comedy and other podcasts, absolutely would have torn this a new one in private. Oh, really? If they'd ever spoken about Chattabix and it made me go, oh, no. Oh, God, we really have been.

2665.036 - 2676.792 Naomi

I don't understand. Do they think we're dickheads, you think? Yeah. There are comedians out there that have absolutely torn us a new one in private on WhatsApp groups.

2676.952 - 2679.175 David

Facts.

Chapter 8: What reflections did Joe and David share about their podcast journey?

3004.034 - 3031.917 Naomi

They're just saying to you they haven't, so they've got to deal with saying they've heard it. And saying it's not their cup of tea. Yeah, they've heard it all right. They haven't heard it. They really haven't. They really have. Everyone's heard it. Right, Noel Callagher, has he heard it? Actually, that's interesting. Can we jump into this? You're in the comedy world.

0

3032.537 - 3051.141 Naomi

How many of the comedy podcasts have you listened to? I haven't listened to... This is nice. This is really nice. Is it, though? Are you going to go through and go, not listen to that, not listen to that, not listen to that? We're doing that. Well, that would sort of confirm to me if maybe people aren't tearing us a new one because they haven't heard it.

0

3051.922 - 3090.852 Naomi

Yeah, I think it's more likely they haven't heard it, but if they have... A Good Hang with Amy Poehler. Yes. No. How many episodes? Eight. Fucking hell. Wanging On with Graham Norton. No. At Home with the Thomas Bros. At Home with the Tom's Bros. Yeah. No. Parenting Hell. Yes. Buckley's. No. Off Menu. Yes. Helen's Log. Helen's log. There's a new one in at 7. Who's that? Helen Bowne.

0

3093.415 - 3094.557 David

No, I haven't, no.

0

3094.577 - 3121.131 Naomi

Staying with them? No. God, I'm bored. Why are we doing this as well? Because I feel a bit like, even if... I feel like I'd start lying because it'd be like... Yeah, I felt like you did with a couple of them. No, I didn't, though. But I was like, I'm going to. I did go, what are we going to go? No, I haven't heard that. That seems a bit mean, hasn't it?

3121.151 - 3143.457 Naomi

Well, no, because, you know, if a comedian said I haven't heard a chat, it's like, of course you haven't. No, I wouldn't feel bad, but I did. It's a bit weird going down the charts. What the hell are we talking about? Once again, should have got off at 46. Well, should we end at 45? And give the patrons the last 15? I guess the bit we should have cut. Well, it's not.

3143.657 - 3170.121 Naomi

There's some good bits in there. I think they're off. Sure. Yeah, you can do that. Fucking buggers. When you were working at Millbank Tower, if you were listening to a podcast, go back in time, podcasts existed, there's one you listen to, and Patreon gets an extra 20 minutes, even if they're faffing around talking about the charts, would you have gone, ooh, I've got an extra 20?

3171.097 - 3185.204 Naomi

I'd like to think I'd five or six that I'd be bouncing around. What, podcasts? Yeah. Yeah, but if you had one you really like, like you do now probably, because you've all got an extra 20 minutes and I've got to take all these, whatever you did at Millbank Tower.

3187.388 - 3189.092 David

Take the Deliver the Letters, you mean?
