What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
What could you show me, Michael? What are you interested in seeing, Joe? You reverberated inside me. Oh, thank you. It was not on my bingo card that Michael Ball was going to present his... Why did I say that out loud? What's worse, why did you write it down in the first place? You wanted to do what to my bottom? I couldn't, like, spank it. Hello and welcome to my office. This is Joe Marla. We'll see you now with me, Dr. Joe Marla. This is the show where I open up the minds of Britain's best loved celebrities and give their thoughts a little tickle. With me as always is my research assistant, Jakey Boy.
How are you? I'm very well indeed. I was having a chat with some mates over the weekend. Show off. I know, there's two of them. Yeah. And it was a conversation that made me think you might have an interesting answer to what yours would be. Yeah. We were discussing what our one hour food challenge would be. Mine was, I really do believe that I could do 50 maybe 60 KFC hot wings in an hour. That's three.
50 or 60 KFC hot wings.
How does the episode open and who are the hosts introducing?
Because they're so small, they're so quick. That's happened in about five seconds. Then you've got three minutes of rest. Because if I'm trying to average one a minute, I've done three. I do think I could do that. What do you reckon you could do in an hour?
So many out there that I could probably attempt. But the one I'm going to back myself with is five pots of Pringles.
Five pots in an hour?
The family ones. Not like the mini ones.
What's all the air flaking? It's just there. I'm going to be honest with you, Joe. I thought your challenge would be bigger than that. Have you ever had a tube of Pringles?
No, I've never had a tube of Pringles.
So you have not lived a single day in my shoes. So how dare you sit there with the audacity to say that my challenge wasn't challenging enough. Did I do that to your 50 or 60 KFC hot wings?
What are Joe and Jake's on-air banter and quickfire challenges about TV and food?
No, I didn't. I embraced it with friendliness and pizzazz. Do you know what? We're thinking about doing some bonus episodes, aren't we? We are thinking about doing some bonus episodes. Why don't we start setting ourselves some challenges? Shall we do it?
A bit like that, yeah? Also, if you're listening or watching this and you've got a challenge for us, we'll bring it on. Fucking bring it on, actually. Well, slightly aggressive to the listeners slash viewer. Fucking bring it on, then. Because we'll do him. We'll do him on the bonus episodes.
Yeah. Well, we'll try and do them.
Jakey, who have we got on today? Well, I don't know what this man's food challenge would be because he's less known for things going in his mouth than things coming out of his mouth.
He's a professional singer.
He's a professional singer. Muchy, muchy, muchy, much like that.
You know how much I love a sing song. You're really good. I'm not really good. You just do it with confidence. And after you've eaten food, you have a very operatic voice. You aren't too bad yourself. And then you do this quiet one. That is when someone dies.
Very good. I'm very excited to introduce our next guest. Introduce them. Who is it? He does singing. He does acting. Oh? He does musical theatre.
Musical, musical, musical theatre. Jimneys.
He does all of it. It is Michael Ball.
Michael Ball, everybody! Michael Ball, can you believe it?
Michael Ball.
I can't quite believe it. Michael's nearly here. Michael Ball. Where is Michael? Where is he hiding? He is hiding from us now. Once and for all, it's Michael Ball.
Here he is, here he is, running up the stairs. And I am really scared in left and right. And will I sleep tonight with Michael Ball?
And we had a note in from Michael Ball saying, whatever you do, please do take musical theatre seriously, which I'm happy to do. He said he doesn't like people taking a piss at a musical theatre.
Well, in no way do I feel we've done that. And I hope to the Lord he's not heard us.
Do you know what it is? I don't hate musicals. I like the ones where there are songs spread out throughout the performance. It's the ones where every word is sung because we need to say the script and story, everything.
