Chapter 3: What is the significance of immediate rapport in conversations?

180.402 - 209.038 David

God, I listened to it back and I was effing and jeffing again and I was embarrassed. I was counting. I said, there's six. There's six effies. God, yeah, I'm terrible. But it's a habit we've got into. It's very relaxed about the swearing in front of each other. Yeah, I do it a lot with Naomi as well. I don't with Petra. God, I don't.

209.058 - 221.492 David

I looked at my cap this morning, this cap I put on.

292.568 - 310.585 David

At the moment, the Olympics, Winter Olympics is like, and I was like, at the moment, this is fresh and this is relevant. Look, it's clean. But over the next couple of years, it'll be 2028, and this will be a dark and muddy grey, and it will be irrelevant.

310.801 - 317.232 Unknown

Bloody hell, I'm so sorry, everyone.

317.292 - 342.797 David

No, let me finish. Let me finish. I said I precursored it with I'm melancholic when I'm poorly. And that was what was going on. I was like, at the moment, look how fresh it is. I'm in the middle of the Olympics. What are you like when you're not poorly? Well, not like that. No. But I was like, and I started going, will it be three months before we've kind of gone? Oh, yeah.

343.337 - 367.262 David

Anyway, that was going on in my head. And you apologized, but I don't think it needed apologizing. Do you want me to take a card off the, see if there's anything on the back? Or do you want to engage in what I just said? You already had that thought. Whatever I said, you were going to go, do you want me to take a card off there? Fucking terrible.

Chapter 4: How do Joe and David feel about their past jobs?

375.594 - 399.922 David

But I was explaining something and you were poised like this. What about your hat? No, I was explaining it and you were poised like this.

Chapter 5: What are their thoughts on being likable?

496.193 - 516.062 David

559.298 - 571.553 David

Map. I sometimes, if I hear something on television, And it's a town. I'll put the town in my Google Maps and I'll see how many miles it is from my house.

572.634 - 577.639 Unknown

I'm sort of more interested in when you're travelling in the car with Petra and there's a map and you've got to get somewhere.

599.648 - 613.255 David

663.718 - 669.785 David

For people who don't know Pease Pottage, two interesting things about Pease Pottage.

669.805 - 673.79 Unknown

Your dad always mentions it when you drive by, something like that. Am I right?

673.93 - 677.474 David

Yeah. And the second one, there's a service station there.

Chapter 7: What game do they come up with during the episode?

703.589 - 728.953 David

There is, but there's a village over the way. Yeah, I know, I know. And then you're down into Hank Cross, Staplefield. Oh, Hank Cross. Yeah, Hank Cross, yeah. I worked at, I had a garden at Ernie. There we go. It'll be, go on. They had a long, I remember they had a really long lawn. I remember thinking they had a little bit of cash.

0

728.973 - 739.308 David

A little bit of cash, a long lawn and a bifter about, I always had a place that had a bifter about 40, 40 metres down the road. A lovely little bifter corner near there.

0

739.448 - 752.612 Unknown

Can I tell you what they did have? What? It was a lady. a middle-aged lady, and she had a daughter in her early to mid-twenties and a boyfriend.

0

753.293 - 770.158 David

The woman had a boyfriend or the child? No, it wasn't a child, but it was a grown child. Yeah, her child, her daughter, sorry. They had a bit of money and a nicely landscaped patio area. Okay, I mean, I want to know about this woman I've never met.

0

771.674 - 790.982 David

and let me tell you about the gay couple i used to work for digitally okay what happened to that story i felt inferior yeah you were but they were young how old were they what the young couple yeah young attractive and they just had fucking money

792.11 - 799.741 Unknown

Yeah. Similar age to you? No, 10 years younger. And so they'd be on the patio maybe drinking.

799.761 - 807.413 David

Were you a bit of physio? Were you a bit invisible to them? Invisio? I was a little bit of physio. Sorry, invisible. Were you a bit invisible to them?

807.493 - 809.696 Unknown

Yeah, I never felt like I got enough.

811.839 - 844.724 David

God, all those jobs you have where you're invisible. put on a pair of pizza express checkered trousers and striped top and you become invisible trust me even when you're cleaning the ground between the tiles with a toothbrush as people are eating yeah sorry carry on No, nothing. No, no, I'm so in. You go, you're 32, they're 24. Oh, am I 32? I reckon I'm 34.

Chapter 8: What are the plans for the next episode?

845.685 - 871.725 David

You're 34, they're 24. They're drinking tea on the patio. I felt like they had their next decade sorted out. They're in a big house. Mummy's doing fine. Yeah, but they're not fine. Mummy's fine. They're not fine. But from the outside, you're an attractive young couple. I'm trying to get Wednesday afternoons off. Yeah, that always does one. Yeah. I find that in Brighton.

0

872.146 - 890.834 David

I go, especially when the sun comes out, what is everyone doing? I think I just realised what my issue was. I wasn't skilled at what I did. If I was like Alan Titchmarsh. And this could go anywhere, basically. I could become the best gardener in the world.

0

890.895 - 896.985 Unknown

Yeah, but also, I'm too busy for you. I'm sorting this out, actually, as it goes. I'm sorting out this.

0

897.005 - 898.808 David

Whereas I'm like, what am I doing?

0

898.848 - 901.092 Unknown

I'm lifting up that fucking thistle.

902.073 - 924.754 David

And you don't know why you're lifting it up. Well, I do, because it encroaches on the lawn. So you do. But weirdly, when I sometimes jokingly say you know naff all about gardening, you get quite snippy. Yeah, I know. So it wasn't because you knew a lot about gardening. It was an Achilles heel. I'd say I'm a bit snippy, actually.

924.794 - 931.282 Unknown

Not anymore. I'd say I feel like I've failed. And I feel sad more than snippy.

931.623 - 960.289 David

And it came out in snippiness, right? I'd go, well, you didn't really know. I remember it quite clearly. You went, I said something like, well, you obviously didn't know what you were doing. No, I knew exactly what I was doing with that lawn. Oh, I didn't. Well, not word for word. I don't like this not word for word business. It's not a court of pissing law, is it? I'm swearing. Don't.

961.147 - 970.617 David

That's a good insight though. That's really true. Like you're going, I wasn't skilled. So I might as well just been a massive, like a massive slug on the garden.
