What unique facts are discussed at the beginning of the episode?
Did you see what just happened?
No, I was on my back.
I'll arrange an apartment presentation tomorrow. Oh, oh. Sujuu kuin Sato. Huokraa elämäsi koti. Sato.fi
Kyllä, se on lempeä kesä nyt, kun elämänmaku on kaikista makein. Mieli kuin nuorena tyttönä kaurapellolla, kun saa liihottaa. Nauti vaan ja ota väli pala välissä. Ai ai ai, niin se on. Eloveena. Täyttä eloa.
I'm going to take a bath automatically.
For the bath,
Hello, and welcome to Little Fish. This is the bonus Monday episode where we put down our facts from the last seven days and we get to chill out, sit back, and really enjoy the facts that you've been sending us in. My name is Dan Schreiber. I'm sitting here with Andrew Hunter-Murray and Anna Tashinsky. And Andy, you've been going through the inbox collecting the best gems sent in to us this week. So let's begin. Let's have a gem. This one goes out to, I want to say goes out to, I mean comes in from.
Yeah.
Oh, dear. It's from Leah Mackay. Okay. So Leah's fact, which she sent a couple of facts, actually, and they're slightly themed. Fact number one, women who pay for their coffee or meal on a first date tend to display more interest in matrimony. And then she adds a secondary fact to that, which is that leap day is no longer the only day that a woman can ask a man to marry her. And by the way, Ryan, Leah has something to ask you right now. This is huge. I think this is the first fish proposal. Are we meant to leave a blank space now for her to... I hope Leah's paused the podcast at that moment.
Oh, wait, are we not asking?
I think Leah should be the one to ask. I mean, they'll have turned it back on by now and we'll know. Well, we don't know now what's happened as a result of this. But that's from Leah Mackay.
Wow. Amazing. Wow. Congratulations, all commiserations.
Oh, wow. Oh, yes. This is exciting, isn't it?
So exciting.
I really hope that they've listened to this in like a good moment of their day. Yeah. You can have bad moments, can't you, as couples, where you sit down and... Oh, should we put a podcast on? What a stupid idea.
I don't think you'd choose to put this podcast on in the middle of a huge argument, knowing what was going to be on it. Or do they not know when we're going to sneak it in?
I don't know if Leah knows when we're going to put this out.
You...
absolutely have to tell her i should probably that is insane okay okay i'll warn her oh my god god she's been waiting 10 years she just missed one episode she forgot about it i can't propose any other way look i hope that we can say congratulations to you leah and ryan yes please do email in podcast at qi.com and actually any other big life moments maybe conception we're happy to the moment of or yeah yeah we're happy to soundtrack that with a fact
A bit like when Tudor kings and queens first had sex, they had a group of people around them monitoring it. We could be like that.
Oh, you're suggesting we record an episode while they're doing it?
Yeah.
In the same room. Okay. Do you reckon? That's interesting. It certainly is interesting, Andy. All right, well, let's get another fact. Anna, you go on.
Well, this is going to be a bit of a damp squid, isn't it?
I know, you've really saved the best for first.
And yet, is this the best for second? It's from Izzy Turner. Here's a fact for you. In 1703, the High Sheriff of County Cork in Ireland was split between two men, the High Sheriff Hood, I guess, split between two men named Dick Cox and Willie Supple. That's just to get us back into down the line fish facts. It's absolutely beautiful.
Potential names for any newborn children coming your way, Leah. Willy Supple.
Is that what you want in a willy?
Uh, it can't hurt. That's very good.
Yeah. Something to put on the Tinder profile.
That's really good. Very nice. I've got a fact here that's been sent in by PJ Neal. And the fact is Barilla, the pasta company, Barilla, has a Spotify account with 10 different playlists. Each of their playlists is named after a specific type of pasta, spaghetti, you know, linguine. And the length of the playlist is the exact length of the time you need to cook that pasta.
