Where in Birmingham and why are we meeting Prince Harry today?
Mr. Charles here. Oh, mail changing. Do you want to get changed now or do you want to get changed later? Get yourself settled first. Come on, here he is. Conor, how are you? Why are you in high-vis? Because they made me. Yeah, sure.
Another question. How come you've come to this one?
Because it's a big one. It's a huge one. Yeah. Shall we have a look? Shall we have a look? Well, I am looking. Is it in here?
Yeah.
I'll tell you where we are. We're in Birmingham at the NEC, one year away from the Invictus Games. Today, we are talking to someone very special. Joe? I don't think I can say it. Say it out loud. No, because it's bonkers. He's not fucking Voldemort. He's not going to appear. It's Prince Harry. It's Prince Harry. It's Prince Harry. The Duke of Sussex.
The Duke of my county.
Yes. And we probably need to come up with some stuff to ask him. When was the last time you shit yourself? I think that's good. I think it's a good opener.
How did Joe and Jake plan their tone and questions for a royal guest?
It's a good opener. I don't think we should change anything that we do on the podcast. Namely because he's the one who had the idea to come on. Yeah. So give him both barrels. Has he got armpit hair? You certainly have. Can you see it through those? Well, yeah, when we were hugging earlier, shirtless. Oh, right, okay. Sort of. It didn't actually feel like you were shirtless because you're so hairy, it felt like a shirt. Sure, sure, sure, sure. I wouldn't mind asking him, why have you chosen this podcast? Should we ask him that?
I feel it's a real privilege that we've been given... to do this, because I haven't seen him on anything as silly as what we do, to be honest. Right. But we've got an existing relationship, so maybe I can open up with, all right, cheese tits. Rather than, oh, hello, your highness, or anything like that, or jukey boy.
Yeah.
I'll be like, oh, cheese tits, sit down. Because...
We're pals. No way. Sorry to quote the internet, but da fuck? Da fuck? Look at you, so fresh-faced. Very young, aren't we? You're so fresh-faced. A little beer in your hand, why not? It's party time. He looks like he's just come from sort of like... School. A day at HSBC, sort of like work experience.
Wow. Keep that in my bathroom. That's really nice. I think that's not the best angle for it. I think that's better.
It's less creepy there, isn't it? Yeah, it's less in your face, isn't it, for him? What about in... I think put it where the light was.
What unorthodox pre-show preparations and wardrobe debates happened?
Put it on the desk, I think, Joe. Yeah. Joe. Last chance to loon, fair enough. He's going to be here in like two minutes now.
Just wait. One last go.
We went to... Oh. Oh, wow. It was worth it in the end.
It was worth it, wasn't it?
Wow. It's sort of... It's metaphoric in the way it's sort of... He's always been in your heart.
Well, more in my gap.
And just to reiterate, you said wherever you placed that picture, you don't want him to be freaked out. So you're hanging it on a dead man's skeleton. Yeah. Yeah, it does it, doesn't it? Are you nervous? I would say fractionally nervous compared to how nervous I thought I should be for it. I'm so glad one of us is as calm and cool as you are. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I think so. Because I'm going to struggle to keep my voice. What do you mean? Hello, Harry. Oh, you're going to do a Harry Kane? Welcome to my office. LAUGHTER
And what I want to learn from both of you is this. How do you deal with trauma and find a way to move forward from it?
We're going to have a game. It's a bit of team bonding we do.
It's a thing that we do to help any nerves leave. Put it this way. We're going to flush away any nerves. We're going for a game of battle sh**.
Can you do a double Windsor? What? Can you do a double Windsor? Are you doing that because of him? Oh, no, we just do. Come on. Do you understand it? Yeah, briefing's done.
You could have got that in earlier. I don't actually know.
Are you ready?
Do you need anything from me?
Do you want me to do it? Do you know what? I'll try and do it. All of this is what I don't need. Let me try and do it. Anything that you're doing now is what I don't need you to do. Let me try and help you. Let me help you to calm down.
