  next Millennium to the year 3000.

  back, but you're joining us for a full episode today, which we
• 1:05
  are absolutely ecstatic about because last time 20 minutes was
• 1:08
  just not enough so we needed more so.
• 1:11
  Thank you for joining us. Always.
• 1:14
  Absolutely. Always so, Steve, but do you
• 1:16
  want to tell everybody what they can expect from today's episode
• 1:19
  of? Course, so coming up today,
• 1:22
  we've got this or that. The We Are Family segment is
• 1:26
  back, back, back again. We are also doing the song of
• 1:29
  the Week where we talk about that Jonas Brothers cover.
• 1:33
  And finally, we're discussing what we think the year 3000
• 1:36
  might actually look like. Yes I love that that Jonas
• 1:41
  Brothers cover like don't even remember the name.
• 1:44
  Not that the episode is called the name of the song, but yeah,
• 1:46
  right I. Mean we'll get there.
• 1:49
  I know what song we're referring to.
• 1:50
  I know we'll get there, we'll get there and we'll move into
• 1:53
  that later because I have some very strong opinions, guys, I'm
• 1:55
  not going to lie. I'm oh, we'll switch.
• 1:57
  We'll switch places. I know.
• 1:59
  Big Jonas Brothers fan, but just, you know, some things are
• 2:03
  better left alone. Agreed.
• 2:06
  Anyway, moving on Steve, how are you?
• 2:09
  How's your week been? What have you been up to?
• 2:12
  Not too bad. I'm a bit, I've been a bit I'll
• 2:14
  over the last couple of days. I'm just blaming on the
• 2:16
  Christmas Blues. Life.
• 2:19
  But now I've been doing a lot of my crafting, I've got a lot of
• 2:21
  craft things for Christmas. I've got a little magic shop.
• 2:25
  I love that. In preparation for this, I've
• 2:28
  literally been building it, listening to a present for
• 2:31
  everyone. I love that.
• 2:33
  Steve that is dedication, absolute dedication.
• 2:37
  Amazing what kind of kids you do lots of crafts, Steve don't you?
• 2:40
  You're very Steve has got like the most patience in the whole
• 2:45
  world. I have 0 patience when it comes
• 2:47
  to craft. I make my jewellery and that's
• 2:48
  it. And even that sometimes I throw
• 2:50
  it at the walls, can't be bothered with it.
• 2:52
  And Steve does like so many little tiny intricate things.
• 2:57
  And tell me Steve, what you do what what is it called?
• 3:00
  The one that you do the. Most so I normally do
• 3:03
  miniatures. I've got into it over the last
• 3:06
  two or three years, but recently I have found micro miniatures
• 3:10
  which I don't think I've actually.
• 3:11
  Shown you tags. But it's even smaller than it
• 3:16
  literally fits in like a little pencil case tin that used to
• 3:19
  take to like primary school with you and honest I understand the
• 3:24
  frustration and throwing things across the room.
• 3:26
  I really trying to get super glue off something when it's
• 3:30
  like. Yeah, that's not, not my thing,
• 3:36
  but it seems very creative and as now we we all can see each
• 3:40
  other. I know that listeners, we don't
• 3:42
  do video yet. We will get there, I promise.
• 3:43
  But to be honest, the reason we don't do it is because it's 8:10
• 3:47
  on a Monday evening and me and Shannon usually look haggard by
• 3:50
  this point because. I've only got a towel on their.
• 3:52
  Door sleeping. I'm wearing an Oddie that has
• 3:54
  Labradors on earth like my make us sell my face.
• 3:57
  I've put my child's bird. We're all haggard.
• 4:00
  Nobody wants to see this. Maybe eventually we can see each
• 4:03
  other and I can see that the high speed on the wall is all of
• 4:06
  his wonderful Gemma that he's been doing and he does so much
• 4:10
  Gemma. And yes, I can see your
• 4:12
  miniatures on the top. I love it.
• 4:15
  I love it. And for Christmas, I bought
• 4:17
  Steve a wicked Gemma because I could not I saw it in B&M and I
• 4:21
  was like, I can't walk past that put it down.
• 4:24
  It's not happening. So he's got his Gemma for for
• 4:29
  Christmas. I'm looking forward to seeing
• 4:30
  that completed. Steve, I hope that that's next
• 4:32
  on your. Agenda.
• 4:32
  Of course I'm I'm saving that for a special time when I need
• 4:35
  uplifting. I love it and I need to feel for
• 4:37
  good so. I love it.
• 4:40
  I love it super. What about you, Sharon?
• 4:42
  What you've been up to? Well, it's been Christmas
• 4:45
  holidays aren't it? So I've been off, been off work.
• 4:48
  I've had 2 1/2 weeks off work. I go back to work tomorrow and I
• 4:50
  tell you now I I like probably end up staying awake until
• 4:55
  midnight just to avoid going back into work tomorrow.
• 5:00
  Really enjoying my first holidays off.
• 5:04
  But yeah, being Christmas, we had a quite quiet Christmas
• 5:07
  actually, just the four of us. But I also were building.
• 5:11
  I also started building something very small and
• 5:14
  intricate. I found, I found my new like
• 5:18
  hyper fixation. I go through it in months, like
• 5:21
  one month it'll be one month it'll be colouring in.
• 5:24
  I went through a huge colouring in phase.
• 5:27
  Next month I'll be it'll be playing guitar, next month it'll
• 5:30
  be Lego. But right now I've been building
• 5:33
  book nooks. Have you?
• 5:35
  Do you know what Book Nook is? Yes, yes, go.
• 5:38
  Yes. Please explain for people that
• 5:40
  don't know. So it's like a little, little
• 5:43
  world. It can be like a street or so
• 5:45
  the one I just built was like a magical coffee shop and it's
• 5:48
  like the size of a book, a bit wider and it goes in between
• 5:52
  your books. So you've got like a little
• 5:54
  world on your bookshelf. And I got one for Christmas and
• 5:58
  I built it on Christmas Day. I literally opened it and I was
• 6:00
  like, right, see you guys, food's cooking, food's cooking.
• 6:04
  I'm at the table building my book neck.
• 6:06
  And I built it in one day. I built it.
• 6:09
  I think it took me 5 hours. But what really annoyed me is it
• 6:13
  didn't come with glue. So I used some eyelash glue.
• 6:18
  Yes, quick thing. Yeah, I built it with Ashley.
• 6:21
  Such a Shannon thing to do, yeah.
• 6:25
  But it was, I love it. It's lush.
• 6:26
  I love it. When this episode comes out,
• 6:29
  what we should do is you should send us some pictures of your
• 6:31
  miniatures and I'll send a picture of my.
• 6:33
  That would be cool. And we'll attach it to the
• 6:35
  episode. I've been making jewellery this
• 6:37
  week so. There we go.
• 6:39
  A little all our crafts together so that.
• 6:41
  Stuff as well. I've got a couple of bookmarks.
• 6:43
  Yeah, I have you. Everyone listening can see our
• 6:47
  our crafts. Not that they're interested in
• 6:50
  them at all. It was.
• 6:52
  Such a little show and tell. I mean, if I do a busted fact,
• 6:55
  they might. Yeah, I was going to say, guys,
• 6:57
  we're here. We're here for Busted and McFly.
• 6:59
  Why are we doing this? A.
• 7:03
  Little diorama. Yes, why not?
• 7:05
  Why not? I love it.
• 7:07
  Ask that, Shan. That sounds so cute.
• 7:09
  I love that. Yeah, so that's been my
• 7:10
  holidays. How about you?
• 7:12
  What have you been up to? Actually started my new job
• 7:15
  today which was super exciting. It's not like it sounds like, it
• 7:19
  sounds funny because it is a new job to me, but I've got a
• 7:22
  consistent supply teaching role now every Monday in a lovely
• 7:27
  little school until the end of July.
• 7:29
  So it's like. That's so good.
• 7:30
  It's like a job, but it's only one day week, but the two other
• 7:33
  days I'm still doing supply and then I have two days home with
• 7:36
  Molly. So yeah, it was really nice.
• 7:37
  I've got a really small like class, it's only 23 of them and
• 7:40
  they're all really lovely. They were very, very lively
• 7:42
  today considering it's the first day back as well.
• 7:44
  First day back and they've got a new.
• 7:46
  Teacher and I arrived and like nothing worked.
• 7:48
  The laptop wasn't working. The planning was all on the
• 7:52
  laptop, the PowerPoints were on the laptop.
• 7:54
  All I had was like some maths activity but with nothing to go
• 7:57
  with it. And I was like, oh.
• 7:58
  My goodness. I got there really early.
• 8:01
  So literally was like like about 50 minutes early so that I could
• 8:04
  be there, get everything set up nowhere.
• 8:06
  I was going nowhere. The staff room and the toilets
• 8:08
  and everything was it took me 40 minutes to get the computer to
• 8:12
  even literally turn on. It was so annoying.
• 8:17
  But I got there in the end. So yeah, that was my day today.
• 8:20
  And yeah, we've just Christmas, you know, we've just been
• 8:22
  chilling and it's been so nice to see Molly just actually
• 8:26
  understanding what Christmas. Is loving Christmas?
• 8:28
  Yeah. We carried her downstairs on
• 8:30
  Christmas morning in Santa, had left lots of footprints all the
• 8:37
  way through our kitchen and she came.
• 8:39
  Down I love that I. Said what's that?
• 8:42
  And she went. Santa made a mess, mummy.
• 8:48
  She's adorable. But yeah, she, I think she got a
• 8:51
  little bit overwhelmed with the amount of presents and things.
• 8:54
  We we actually ended up opening like half of them on Boxing Day
• 8:58
  because she just had so many not from us, but like, they just
• 9:02
  pile up from everybody. Do you know what I mean?
• 9:05
  Like do. You remember autumn's first
• 9:07
  birthday and it was like it ends up being because like for my
• 9:11
  youngest daughter, for her 1st birthday, we had a party because
• 9:15
  it was the first grandchild. It was the first everything and
• 9:18
  everyone wanted to bring her presents, which is lovely, but
• 9:21
  also everyone wanted to see her open them.
• 9:22
  So we had to like all go in the living room and open all of them
• 9:26
  at the same time. And she was just so overwhelmed
• 9:29
  that it ended up being just a convey about she didn't care
• 9:32
  what was inside them in the end. That's.
• 9:33
  Exactly it. That's what we're trying to
• 9:35
  avoid. So that's why we literally took
• 9:37
  two days to open them and I didn't get her loads.
• 9:40
  Actually, the majority of the things that I got her were from
• 9:43
  the charity shop. Yeah.
• 9:45
  From our best friend Ricky's charity shop and books.
• 9:48
  Literally that was it. I just got her loads of books
• 9:50
  and I got her a few little like colouring things and some like
• 9:53
  wooden fruit that she can chop because she's really in her like
• 9:57
  shop phase at the moment. So she had those things and then
• 10:01
  her big thing, she had her rocking horse which was from her
• 10:05
  her Nana and I got her a little scooter which she still can't
• 10:09
  work out how to use. She just.
• 10:10
  Sat on it, she. Just sits on it.
• 10:12
  She's just waiting for me to push.
• 10:13
  Do you know what? Do you know what my girl's got?
• 10:16
  My girl's got Heelys. Do you remember Heelys?
• 10:18
  Oh my. God I love Heelys.
• 10:20
  You should. I am.
• 10:22
  They can play with it in the living room.
• 10:24
  But are we going out in them? Absolutely not.
• 10:26
  You know my children, they will break ahead or something.
• 10:30
  I'll only come back with one. I only ever popped my heels out
• 10:34
  like twice and the last time I did it I did it in my bedroom
• 10:37
  and I fell flat on my arse and I never put them on again.
• 10:39
  So these ones have a wheel at the front and at the back and
• 10:43
  I've realised. So I'm really basically I was
• 10:47
  like, well we'll use one wheel to start with and we'll go with
• 10:50
  the heel. I'd already put the front one in
• 10:53
  and now they walk around like they're on their tip toes
• 10:55
  because I won't put the back one on until they used to, until
• 10:58
  they're used to using the wheels.
• 11:00
  So they're like, they're walking around like little Penguin.
• 11:04
  That's hilarious and love, Yeah. I've got I've got to figure out
• 11:07
  how to take that front wheel out because the back one pops in and
• 11:10
  out so I can just leave it, whereas the front one just stays
• 11:12
  out like a rollerblade. Yeah, that's annoying.
• 11:16
  It's sort of fun in games though, isn't it?
• 11:17
  I mean, especially when you've got kids at Christmas.
• 11:19
  It's just, it's a lot, Steve. You're still enjoying actually
• 11:22
  just being a person that doesn't have children at Christmas.
• 11:25
  It's just I, I am the. Children so.
• 11:27
  Jealous, I was going to say. Open something and.
• 11:29
  I know your family and. Then I'm running bounds and then
• 11:32
  I. Know your family.
• 11:33
  I am the. I love that, Steve.
• 11:36
  I love it. So yeah, it's been a good.
• 11:39
  It's been lovely, wholesome family Christmas.
• 11:41
  Yeah. But back to work now, back to
• 11:43
  reality and back to podcasting, which is so much fun I.
• 11:47
  Missed you. It's time for this or that.
• 11:55
  Don't forget you can play along on our Instagram stories.
• 11:58
  All of our templates are in our highlights.
• 11:59
  And make sure you tag us because we love seeing your answers.
• 12:03
  So I have two this week. My first one is this or that.
• 12:08
  Would you rather go backward 973 years to the year 1053 or
• 12:14
  forward 973 years to the year 3000?
• 12:19
  Answers here please. Good one.
• 12:20
  And it is quite like we've said, it's quite similar to mine, but
• 12:24
  in a completely different way. I really like thinking about
• 12:27
  going all the way back to Yeah 10:53.
• 12:33
  I would probably choose that because you never know what's
• 12:35
  going to be back there like in that specific year.
• 12:39
  You never know the little intricacies, things that have
• 12:42
  happened or how they learn, or you know you've read it in a
• 12:46
  book, but it'll be completely different to actually experience
• 12:49
  it. Yeah, you only see that the
• 12:50
  highlight reel in a book. Don't you?
• 12:52
  OK, Steve. OK, so you've gone with the the
• 12:55
  yesteryear choice. I no a fair amount as a teacher
• 13:00
  about that sort of era. And there was a lot of sword
• 13:02
  fights and there was a lot of disease and there was a lot of
• 13:06
  running around each other. There's a lot of Vikings and
• 13:10
  pillaging and all that. And I just don't think I'm cut
• 13:13
  out for all of that. Seems like Oh are they on
• 13:16
  grinder? Vikings going down look at now
• 13:20
  I'm. Dead.
• 13:26
  I'm not sure why people ever. I'm not sure the Vikings of 1053
• 13:30
  would be interested in that sort of pillaging.
• 13:33
  You never. Know.
• 13:34
  Well, you never know. Oh dear, no, I genuinely I can't
• 13:39
  fight, couldn't fight a family. So I would be a really terrible
• 13:42
  person to be around in 1053. Also triple breasted women in
• 13:48
  the year 3000. I'm up for it.
• 13:50
  Sign me up. Why not?
• 13:52
  Let's go and have a look, see what's going on.
• 13:55
  I've always wanted a boob job. There we go.
• 14:00
  Maybe I'll move some of mine to the middle and then I'll have
• 14:02
  normal sized ones. I love it.
• 14:06
  I think that would be for me, I would definitely go to the
• 14:08
  future because I'm not going to live that long.
• 14:10
  So I would love to go and have a look and see what I'm going to
• 14:13
  miss out on, if that makes sense.
• 14:14
  And it's really funny because I was having this conversation
• 14:16
  with my granddad today. Like he was like, oh, you know,
• 14:18
  I do worry for your, your MJS generation don't know what the
• 14:22
  world's going to be like in 50 years time, you know, and I
• 14:26
  would be here to see it. I'm nearly 97.
• 14:29
  Do you? Know what, you're right
• 14:31
  actually, because none of us know what the world's going to
• 14:33
  be like with especially with things like AI and all of that
• 14:35
  taking over. Maybe 3000 could be messed up.
• 14:39
  I'd love, I'd like to see it. I would like to see it.
• 14:43
  So yes, that's my answer. Shannon, what would you choose?
• 14:47
  I would probably say go forward as well.
• 14:49
  Yeah. Yeah, because I mean boobs.
• 14:53
  You know me boobs, but also like I, I'm, I'm trying to be a bit
• 15:02
  more active this year, but I'm, I, unless I'm at work, I'm on my
• 15:06
  sofa. Oh.
• 15:07
  Snap, babe. Obviously, obviously when I'm
• 15:10
  like I'm running around after the kids and God knows what, so
• 15:13
  I'm quite an active person in general.
• 15:15
  But in my spare time, my time, Shannon's time is on the sofa
• 15:19
  with a blanket and a good book. Yeah, love that.
• 15:22
  I don't think I would. I don't think I'd survive.
• 15:25
  I really don't. They'd look at me and be like,
• 15:28
  what are you doing? And I'd just be there with 50
• 15:31
  Shades of grey like. Who's this wench?
• 15:34
  Who's this? Who's this wench reading
• 15:35
  Twilight when we're all fighting Anglo Saxons?
• 15:40
  One book you'd take back with you is.
• 15:42
  Twilight 100 percent, 100% it would be.
• 15:45
  It would be the series, Steve, so it's not just.
• 15:46
  The series. OK the series that's acceptable,
• 15:49
  that's fine. I bought just a stand alone book
• 15:51
  that's like just taking prisoner of Azkaban.
• 15:52
  Like why? Literally.
• 15:54
  Why would you do that? I love that.
• 15:56
  OK. Should we should we go to Steve
• 15:58
  and then me? And then we'll go back to your
• 16:00
  other one, Shan, so that we sort of do full circle gone then.
• 16:02
  Steve, Do you want to share yours with us?
• 16:04
  OK, so this or that. So you would have to either
• 16:10
  listen to year 3000 at least two times every single day, OK, or
• 16:17
  you could only see busted once live.
• 16:22
  No. This is quite an easy one for me
• 16:25
  because I listen to it more than twice a day anyway, so I would.
• 16:29
  Yeah, easily, easily see the only ones ever live.
• 16:32
  That is not enough. Sorry.
• 16:34
  I need more fat. Will listen in the flesh way
• 16:36
  more often. Although, although I will say
• 16:42
  year 3000 not up there with with one of my favourites, but if it
• 16:47
  meant I could only see them once, then I mean I'm more.
• 16:52
  That means I'm already in debt. Yeah, I play it a million times.
• 16:57
  I love that. What would you go for, Steve?
• 16:59
  I think it's a pretty easy answer.
• 17:00
  I mean I would definitely listen to year 3000 twice every day so
• 17:04
  I could see them whenever I wanted like.
• 17:06
  Whenever. I mean, there's nothing like
• 17:09
  tour. There is nothing like a tour.
• 17:12
  It's just. Of his life.
• 17:14
  Do you know what I do? Because obviously with podcasts
• 17:17
  and the page and like when we're not great with socials, let's
• 17:20
  put that out there. We've not got a lot of
• 17:21
  followers. We're not promoting anything.
• 17:23
  We just got it there because it's there and we like to
• 17:25
  interact with people and we love the people that do interact with
• 17:28
  us. So those of you that are
• 17:29
  listening, that message and comment and all of those things,
• 17:31
  thank you. We love you, we appreciate you.
• 17:33
  We're sorry that we're so shit. We do try, but equally, we are
• 17:38
  30 something years old, running around after our kids all day
• 17:41
  and we can't be bothered at the end of the day.
• 17:43
  Not only that, if I spend any more time on my phone, my
• 17:46
  husband's going to divorce me. So you've got to put some
• 17:51
  strategies in place, But I think, you know, it's, it's
• 17:54
  difficult, isn't it? There's so much to it.
• 17:56
  There's so many things to building a fan base, and I think
• 18:01
  having a tour is just something that brings all of those people
• 18:04
  together. We've made so many friends on
• 18:07
  our, you know, on our Instagram, all to do with the Busted Versus
• 18:10
  McFly tour. That's where this came from.
• 18:13
  That's where this idea came from.
• 18:14
  That's where it all started. Without it, we'd be literally,
• 18:18
  well, we'd just be talking to each other about this on the
• 18:20
  phone channel instead of on a podcast.
• 18:22
  But also you make friends tour as well.
• 18:27
  The amount of people I've made friends with in the queue or on
• 18:31
  the front row or even 1000 feet high in the O2 like you may,
• 18:38
  you're all there for the same reason.
• 18:39
  So even if you've got huge political differences or you
• 18:44
  know, you live on 2 separate ends of the world, or you've got
• 18:47
  two different backgrounds, yeah, you're all there for the same.
• 18:49
  You get on so well while you're there because you're all there
• 18:51
  for the same reason. Exactly.
• 18:53
  You share the same love. You have something in common.
• 18:55
  Yeah, yeah, exactly. And like, let's face it, McFly
• 18:59
  fans are the best. They're just so much fun.
• 19:02
  I love McFly fans. They're just so, everybody's
• 19:05
  just so happy and fun and they enjoy music that makes them and
• 19:08
  laugh and feel young again. And like that, like you've said
• 19:10
  before, there are lots of young McFly fans, which is amazing To
• 19:14
  see kids that are like 16/17/18 that love McFly is great.
• 19:18
  They're in their 40s, you know, they're all, they're older than
• 19:22
  us that this is our generation of bands.
• 19:24
  So to know that they're people that are in their teens that
• 19:27
  still love it, it's just great. Absolutely love it.
• 19:29
  OK, so my this or that is similar to Shannon's in a way.
• 19:35
  It is travel back to 2003 to Relay to relive the glory days
• 19:41
  of Busted in their prime, or travel to the year 3000 to see
• 19:47
  if their predictions were correct.
• 19:50
  OK, can I just ask a slight question?
• 19:53
  This will change my answer I think.
• 19:55
  If I'm travelling back do they still break up?
• 19:58
  Yes. Then I'm going forward.
• 20:01
  I can't go through that again. Relive it.
• 20:04
  I can't relive that. I get you.
• 20:08
  The heartbreak was real. The heartbreak was.
• 20:10
  Real. I will definitely.
• 20:12
  I mean, I, I, if I could go back my age now to 2003.
• 20:20
  Oh, interesting. 100% love that. So I'd I'd already know what's
• 20:24
  going to happen. It's like what should Titanic.
• 20:26
  I know what's happening I. Think he would.
• 20:27
  I think that you know how I wrote that?
• 20:29
  I think I imagined myself travelling back, not being
• 20:33
  younger, but staying me. You know, like Marty McFly
• 20:37
  doesn't become like baby Marty McFly.
• 20:39
  True. True.
• 20:41
  Yeah. I I would definitely go back to
• 20:44
  relive with my love now, listening to everything as it
• 20:48
  came out and being able to see them live and all this and that
• 20:52
  back in the day, but I wasn't able to.
• 20:54
  Do that then I actually OK, you've you've twisted my arm.
• 20:57
  I changed my mind. They changed my answer.
• 21:00
  Don't jump on the bandwagon. No, I'm jumping on your
• 21:02
  bandwagon. Shannon's the sheep that
• 21:04
  follows. I am a sheep and.
• 21:07
  As much as I want their predictions to be right, I don't
• 21:11
  think they would be. No.
• 21:13
  I no they agree I would be out of a job.
• 21:16
  I would 100% be living on the streets out of a job because
• 21:19
  some robot has taken it. Honey, we're all living
• 21:21
  underwater. I can't swim, I'm not going to
• 21:26
  the water. Imagine how crinkled and soggy
• 21:28
  we'd be. Can you?
• 21:30
  Imagine I'm just on the top so I can't.
• 21:33
  Spin. I'm just with my little arm
• 21:35
  bands. I've got like a little rubber
• 21:40
  ring around me in my arm bands. Everyone's living their best
• 21:42
  life wrinkly underwater. But you'd have your 3 boobs just
• 21:46
  on top of the. Rubber ring, they would hold me
• 21:48
  up. They would be your arm band.
• 21:52
  They would be my armour to be a little flow.
• 21:55
  I love it. Oh my gosh, that's brilliant.
• 21:57
  Oh yeah, I I agree. I'd be going back because if I
• 22:00
  could see busted like again back when they were like 1718, that
• 22:05
  would just be the best thing ever.
• 22:06
  I'd love to go on like their first or maybe their second
• 22:10
  tour, you know, like, is it the Who's David music video where
• 22:14
  they're walking through a corridor and they've got fans
• 22:17
  screaming at them? And yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 22:20
  I would love to be. I'd love to go and see them when
• 22:22
  they're at that kind of prime. I think because I I don't
• 22:25
  remember, I've I've seen busted twice.
• 22:28
  I can remember seeing them twice, like when I was younger,
• 22:30
  and then I saw the night driver tour and I saw the what was the
• 22:33
  other tour, that old pigs. Can fly.
• 22:35
  Pigs can fly tour, yes, that's it.
• 22:38
  I saw them at Powderham Castle. That was the first time again.
• 22:42
  I think I was like 11. I don't remember it.
• 22:45
  Oh, to go back and see them like that again, I would just love.
• 22:48
  That also you have McFly supporting them.
• 22:51
  I know, how cool would it be to go back and see little little
• 22:54
  Tom with his long blonde hair just all flicking to one side?
• 22:57
  It'd be amazing. I'd love.
• 22:59
  It I would want to go back just for that one day.
• 23:01
  Yeah, actually, yeah, just for that, just for that gig.
• 23:04
  OK. Shan, do you want to do your
• 23:05
  last one? Yes, my last one is so busted.
• 23:11
  We're going busted because that's the theme of the podcast.
• 23:14
  So new albums every year, so new music every year.
• 23:17
  But they barely tall or next to no new music but consistently
• 23:23
  touring are the best of. Our brilliant, brilliant
• 23:27
  question. That's so good, easy answer for
• 23:31
  me though, I tall, tall. Life is my life.
• 23:35
  I I need to be on tour. I need to be on tour all the
• 23:37
  time and I would have. No, then you get no new music.
• 23:39
  I don't care. And it's just that, the best of.
• 23:41
  I don't care. I'd never get sick.
• 23:42
  But then saying that, say look at how much you love Mcbusted
• 23:47
  Alba. I love.
• 23:48
  Mcbusted so much. So if they weren't allowed to
• 23:51
  make new music. I know, but I think like now I
• 23:55
  don't think they can make music like that anymore because it.
• 23:58
  That was like. 10 years ago they were literally like 2829, now
• 24:02
  they're like 40. You know, it's a big difference.
• 24:05
  Like I'm nowhere near what I was 10 years ago, so I can't expect
• 24:08
  them to be writing songs like riding on my bike and indoor
• 24:11
  club. Yeah.
• 24:14
  And those are the songs that I love because they're so fun and
• 24:17
  they're so silly and they're just great.
• 24:18
  And like, that's why. We love.
• 24:20
  I'm a sensitive guy. Shannon loves that song.
• 24:24
  I love sensitive guy. So good.
• 24:27
  So yeah, I would definitely. I'd be happy with no music.
• 24:29
  You're constantly touring, Steve.
• 24:31
  What do you think? No music, constantly touring.
• 24:34
  I mean that is basically me now anyway, so.
• 24:36
  Easy answer. Whenever I see them come up I'm
• 24:38
  like boom. Yeah, Do you agree?
• 24:41
  Yeah, I do agree because if I'm being completely honest, I don't
• 24:45
  listen to the new stuff anyway. I listen to present for everyone
• 24:49
  and the self-titled. I mean, I do listen to the new
• 24:52
  music. That's not sorry you absolutely.
• 24:55
  Love on what you're on. Sorry, favourite song?
• 25:01
  Never going to let you live that down, ever.
• 25:03
  No, but do you know what I mean? Like I, I, I've listened to the
• 25:06
  new stuff, don't get me wrong. But if I'm going, oh, I fancy
• 25:10
  listening to Busted today, I don't say, oh, I fancy listening
• 25:13
  to Night Driver. I say I fancy listening to a
• 25:16
  present for everyone. Everyone.
• 25:17
  Yeah, exactly. We're back.
• 25:18
  We're right back there. I do appreciate the greatest
• 25:20
  hits album. I did appreciate it.
• 25:22
  I appreciate the 2.0 with the collabs, some of the more
• 25:25
  amazing. Absolutely so happy with that.
• 25:28
  But yeah, if I'm, if I'm 100% honest, busted in their prime
• 25:32
  and to be honest, McFly too, I do appreciate.
• 25:35
  But I do appreciate McFly in their prime, like I stay in
• 25:40
  their prime, but you know, back younger when they're, they were
• 25:43
  really young and we were like all over them all the time.
• 25:46
  So they went on a bit of hiatus, didn't they?
• 25:47
  And they paused and they came back.
• 25:49
  Like, I know Motion in the Ocean far better than I know the Young
• 25:53
  Dumb Thrills album. Do you know what I mean?
• 25:55
  I still know the Young Dumb Thrills album, but I don't
• 25:57
  listen to it like I do Motion in the Ocean.
• 25:59
  So it's that nostalgia element, isn't it?
• 26:02
  That's what we're here for. That's what we're doing, 100.
• 26:04
  Percent it's time for We are family.
• 26:09
  This segment is reserved specifically for the family of
• 26:13
  the members from both bands. We talk about things going on in
• 26:16
  their lives as well as a little bit about them as people and
• 26:19
  their little projects. OK, so and this is honest honest
• 26:24
  truth listers, I wanted to keep this section.
• 26:26
  Yeah, there's a lot of XS. There's a lot of.
• 26:28
  Secret. I wanted it a secret.
• 26:30
  And do you know what? It's going to be real let down
• 26:32
  when Shannon goes. Oh yeah, I knew that because
• 26:34
  Shannon knows everything. Right, well, actually in our
• 26:37
  quizzes, we all know I'm I'm bad at a quiz, so.
• 26:41
  But I, but I really wanted you to, to hear this for the first
• 26:44
  time from me. But I you've probably heard it,
• 26:47
  but it's fine. We may have even discussed it in
• 26:49
  the past. Shan, I'm just fucking
• 26:51
  forgetful. It's on episode 10.
• 26:54
  Yeah, I loved it and I was like, Oh my God, this is amazing.
• 26:57
  So I was sat here and I was thinking, right, who can we
• 27:00
  focus on for we are family this week?
• 27:01
  We've done like a couple of the wives, we've done sisters, you
• 27:04
  know. So let's have a think about
• 27:06
  extended family a little bit. So I started searching for
• 27:09
  extended family of the bands McFly and Busted.
• 27:13
  I was absolutely blown away four days ago when I found out this
• 27:17
  fact. So apparently according to a
• 27:19
  tweet in 2021, it was confirmed by the very person that this is
• 27:24
  correct. OK.
• 27:26
  Or you have to. It's not alleged, no.
• 27:29
  No, no, it was. It was by the person himself.
• 27:33
  We all know we've been in trouble before.
• 27:35
  So our very own Dougie Pointer is actually the cousin of Josh
• 27:41
  Franceski from You Me at Six. Yes.
• 27:45
  She didn't know it. I just saw.
• 27:46
  Her I didn't know. Her face.
• 27:50
  What a family, what a what a dream, Paul.
• 27:54
  It was just that tweeted. It was just and he literally put
• 27:57
  like something like Oh my God. Just found out that Dougie
• 28:01
  Pointer is my cousin. What a gene pool.
• 28:06
  What on earth? Where is the collab?
• 28:08
  Because this is the collaboration that I never knew
• 28:11
  I needed and I'm so sad it did not happen.
• 28:14
  Like why? Why?
• 28:15
  I know I actually have no words. Literally.
• 28:18
  So obviously we got and I've put here.
• 28:21
  However, we did get XX with XXX on the XXX album, just to let
• 28:25
  you know. We'll fill those in now.
• 28:27
  So we did get you me at six on the busted 2 point O album
• 28:33
  singing Oh my gosh, what what was this song?
• 28:37
  That's it. That's why I put 3 dots for air
• 28:40
  and then. There we go.
• 28:43
  Which was obviously an absolute banger if you ask me, and I'd go
• 28:46
  as far as saying better than the original.
• 28:49
  I would go along with you with that.
• 28:51
  Popular or unpopular opinion? Better than.
• 28:53
  The I would say usually unpopular, I would say because
• 28:57
  everyone loves an original. But I'm with you, because
• 28:59
  anything Josh Franceschi touches turns to gold.
• 29:02
  Also like he literally makes everything 10 times better.
• 29:05
  Just that's what I mean, yeah. Yeah, being alive, being alive,
• 29:09
  it's better because he's also oh.
• 29:10
  My goodness, I love that. Man, so I thought we could use
• 29:14
  this section to talk a little bit about Yumi at Six and our
• 29:18
  love for Josh Franceschi, who is the cousin of Doggie Dougie
• 29:21
  Pointer Doggie. I've done it again.
• 29:22
  I've done this doggie. Pointer.
• 29:25
  I'm sorry, Darl. The cousin of Dougie Pointer.
• 29:28
  So Shannon and I have been Yumi at six fans for a very, very
• 29:31
  long time, since we met in. We were 18 when we met, right?
• 29:36
  And we're now. That young, I think.
• 29:38
  I'm nearly 33. I think I I'm sure it was the
• 29:41
  September that I turned, I turned 18 in the in the
• 29:45
  February. It was the September after we
• 29:48
  would, I'd have been you'd have been just 18 and I.
• 29:50
  Just 18. Yeah, because I'm so young.
• 29:53
  So I I'm so young and carefree. Oh my goodness.
• 29:59
  So I messaged Steve and I was like, Steve, I need to ask you a
• 30:02
  question and I didn't give like any context to what it was, but
• 30:06
  I said I need to know if you know who you meet 6.
• 30:09
  I know. And if you don't, you need to
• 30:11
  find out who you meet. 6 is we. Worked out so hard at your
• 30:15
  wedding. I know the answer to this
• 30:17
  already. And he?
• 30:18
  Was like, yeah, yeah, I'm familiar with them.
• 30:21
  He's like, I'll listen to them a bit more this week just to make
• 30:23
  sure. Steve's been doing his homework
• 30:27
  on You Meet 6 but we are very big fans.
• 30:29
  For those of you that don't know you music, they are AI mean.
• 30:33
  What would we call them? Soft rock.
• 30:36
  Don't really, I would say, I would say pop rock or like.
• 30:42
  Heavier. Yeah, I'd say pop.
• 30:44
  Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, 100%. Yeah.
• 30:46
  Definitely more, yeah. I think they're not like is.
• 30:50
  I think their music has changed a lot over the years and they're
• 30:53
  like later albums became a lot heavier.
• 30:57
  You may know you made 6 for songs like Save It for the
• 31:00
  Bedroom, Stay with Me, which gives me and Shan mems every
• 31:05
  time because. It was all made in Chelsea once.
• 31:08
  Little well known fact, we used to be absolute sands for Made in
• 31:13
  Chelsea. Me and Chan back when we were
• 31:14
  18. We'd sit in the library at our
• 31:16
  first university. We met Steve in our second
• 31:20
  university. Me and Chan went to a university
• 31:22
  down here in Cornwall and had a terrible year.
• 31:24
  We did nothing but drink Jägermeister and eat noodles for
• 31:27
  a whole year. Pretty much listen to your
• 31:29
  music. And that's why I'm 1000 stone.
• 31:34
  But we, we had to write our dissertation, Steve.
• 31:37
  And we sat. And you know what it's like to
• 31:39
  write a dissertation. Yeah.
• 31:40
  Can you remember the? Pain.
• 31:43
  Horribly, yes. All the coffee dates that we had
• 31:46
  Steve in Starbucks and we sat with Katie Butters.
• 31:48
  Do you remember in in Cabot Circus in Starbucks, just typing
• 31:51
  away our dissertations for days. And then, well, me and Shannon
• 31:53
  also did this, but we did it in the library at Falmouth
• 31:56
  University. And instead of doing it in the
• 31:58
  daytime like normal people, we would just sleep in the daytime.
• 32:01
  And then we just get up, have tea and then go to the library
• 32:04
  and stay there all night. Yeah.
• 32:06
  Oh wow. So I have a vivid memory of like
• 32:09
  3 in the morning being in the library and there's still a few
• 32:12
  people in there and they kept shushing us because we were
• 32:14
  being so laughed. Oh yeah.
• 32:16
  We were sat in in the library watching Made in Chelsea and a
• 32:23
  key episode. It was a really early series,
• 32:26
  like probably like series one or two.
• 32:28
  Spencer Matthews was going after Kaggy and she was getting on the
• 32:32
  plane and he was like, I've got to catch her.
• 32:35
  I've got to get in a taxi. He's in the taxi and he's
• 32:38
  rushing to the airport and Stay with Me is playing in the
• 32:40
  background and I'm in the in the library just going stay with me.
• 32:46
  With her headphones on so no one around knows what's going on.
• 32:49
  They can just it's silent and then you can just hear somebody
• 32:54
  screaming you me as X and screaming the word Kaggy.
• 32:59
  I would find that fair person and instantly make them my fat.
• 33:04
  My session with Made in Chelsea was unhealthy.
• 33:07
  Do you remember? I think Steve, were you there
• 33:09
  the year that I met Andy from Made in Chelsea at Tunes and the
• 33:13
  Dunes? Yes.
• 33:16
  I remember you send me a photo of this.
• 33:18
  But. I knew, I knew.
• 33:19
  I got a picture. I was stood in the tent with my
• 33:22
  mates and I was like, hey, that's fucking Andy from Made in
• 33:25
  Chelsea. And they were like, who the hell
• 33:27
  is Andy? And I'm like, I don't know his
• 33:28
  name. I just know his name is Andy.
• 33:31
  I'm going to say hello. And I went over and I was like,
• 33:34
  hi, love your Made in Chelsea. And he was like, oh, thanks.
• 33:36
  I was like, you're having a nice day.
• 33:37
  And we were just having a chat. And then Tash came over and was
• 33:40
  like, do you want a picture? And I was like, OK.
• 33:41
  And I stood next to him and she was like, put your arm around
• 33:44
  her. Andy.
• 33:45
  And I went Tash is going to die of shame.
• 33:50
  So funny. I was so embarrassed.
• 33:54
  Give it the hug, Tay. I was like, no like.
• 33:57
  Not OK. That's so Tash.
• 34:01
  Oh. Dear But You Meet 6 did a fair
• 34:04
  amount of songs on things like Made in Chelsea.
• 34:06
  They also married. Songs.
• 34:08
  On so many different things, didn't they?
• 34:10
  Can you remember any? I'm so offended that you just
• 34:14
  went to move on and you didn't mention take on the world.
• 34:19
  Oh, OK, you bring it up. I'll leave it to you.
• 34:22
  Take on the world was played in the final episode of The Vampire
• 34:27
  Diaries. I genuinely.
• 34:32
  I don't think I've ever been that emotional in my life like
• 34:35
  watching the TVI was distraught. When we went to the final, final
• 34:40
  night of 6 the tour, both times I went, I went twice and I wore
• 34:45
  my Vampire Diaries T-shirt both times.
• 34:49
  I remember just to see, just to see.
• 34:51
  Anybody else? Anybody else?
• 34:54
  Anybody know? Anyone.
• 34:56
  Anyone got the memo reference? I'm just pointing at my top
• 34:59
  because in that bit of the toy, like the he uses everyone's
• 35:04
  torches, doesn't he? Like the lights go down and we
• 35:07
  just see a sea of torches and there's everyone's swaying them
• 35:10
  and I'm just pointing mine towards my top just to see if
• 35:12
  anyone realises anyone. So good, but they've got some
• 35:17
  you you meet six are so good because they have some absolute
• 35:20
  bangers. Let's talk about their first
• 35:22
  albums where we like I said, we had it's take off your colours.
• 35:26
  We had save it for the bedroom. We had liquid confidence gossip,
• 35:29
  all of those gossip, like all of those amazing songs that were so
• 35:36
  they are McFly busted esque in a way.
• 35:38
  You know, they tell a story and they're.
• 35:40
  They really are. Funny.
• 35:42
  And they've got little like anecdotes in that, you know,
• 35:44
  that are probably private jokes and.
• 35:46
  Yeah, Take Off Your Colours is actually what is now and always
• 35:52
  has been since it came out, in my top five favourite albums of
• 35:56
  all time. It's my easiest, yes, it's my
• 35:59
  easiest saying. It's in my top five.
• 36:02
  That and there's a Panic at the Disco album as well, but those
• 36:06
  two are right, right up there in my top.
• 36:08
  They never change, they're always in there.
• 36:11
  The all of the songs on the album are insane.
• 36:14
  I remember tigers and sharks. That was a great song.
• 36:17
  What a jealous minds think along.
• 36:19
  Jealous minds think alike. That play.
• 36:20
  Do you remember when I saw the when I went to the final night 6
• 36:23
  and you weren't there and I was like, Taylor, they started
• 36:26
  playing a different song and I filmed.
• 36:28
  Yeah. And you were like, Oh my God, I
• 36:29
  wish. I was there, I was fuming and
• 36:33
  you made your bed. That's a great song, but my
• 36:36
  favourite song was always Attract.
• 36:39
  I know you're going. To say God, I absolutely bore my
• 36:42
  eyes out every time I hear that song.
• 36:44
  It's. Do you?
• 36:44
  When we learned it on guitar, we did it on guitar.
• 36:46
  Didn't. We if it hurts this much, there
• 36:49
  must be love. Ohh God.
• 36:53
  Really, if it's a lottery, I can't wait to join you.
• 36:59
  So good. Anyway, for those of you that
• 37:01
  don't have a clue who You Meet Six are, you're probably
• 37:04
  completely bored, but we just wanted to give an honourable
• 37:07
  mention to Josh Franceschi and the amazing You Meet 6 because
• 37:10
  they are no more Final Nights at Six Tour ended last year and I
• 37:16
  cried several times but they are massive and and were massive.
• 37:20
  Did so. And you know what I really love
• 37:21
  about Unit 6? They always came to Plymouth.
• 37:24
  They never forgot us down here in the southwest in the tow of
• 37:27
  the country. Here we are, Devon and Cornwall.
• 37:31
  Nobody gives a shit to us because we're so far away.
• 37:34
  We never get the good comedians, we never get the good musicals,
• 37:38
  we never get the big bands. And there they were.
• 37:40
  And I remember him saying at the Plymouth gig, some bands don't
• 37:43
  play Plymouth, but we fucking love you.
• 37:48
  Because so I saw them in, I saw them in Plymouth and Exeter and
• 37:51
  I was like, Exeter was a teeny Tony.
• 37:53
  It was part of a university like Halls.
• 37:55
  And I was like, how lucky do I feel?
• 37:58
  Literally, I just have to get on a train.
• 37:59
  I just, I don't have to like do much at all.
• 38:02
  Intimate shows really like Cosy and personal.
• 38:06
  We obviously we have a barrier because how can you not be?
• 38:10
  I just I lost my voice that night because I screamed so
• 38:13
  much. At Josh Rogers, so good.
• 38:16
  Also, whilst I know we're closing out this segment but I
• 38:19
  feel like we need to tell the world Taylor dated and Josh
• 38:24
  Franceschi look alike. Her obsession went so far that
• 38:30
  she found the person that looked the most like him.
• 38:32
  Yeah, but you know what? I didn't even realise he looked
• 38:34
  like him until after we broke up.
• 38:38
  Damn it. That was one day he changed his
• 38:40
  profile picture and I was like Josh.
• 38:42
  Oh, no, wait. That's not Josh.
• 38:44
  Why have you done this now? Why didn't you do this two years
• 38:46
  ago when we were dating? How'd this happen?
• 38:49
  Things would. Have been so different.
• 38:51
  He does still look like him a little bit.
• 38:54
  It's, yeah, it's weird. It's a weird thing.
• 38:56
  But I mean, Josh is better, obviously.
• 38:58
  He's. Money bags.
• 39:01
  So much bad, so much bad. Oh dear.
• 39:05
  Yes. Well, thank you very much for
• 39:07
  you, me at six and Dougie Pointer, who knew the cosm of.
• 39:11
  John Lewis What a temple, What a gene pool.
• 39:16
  It's time for Song of the Week. This week we are super excited
• 39:20
  because we get to talk about one of the most remembered songs
• 39:24
  from the early naughties, Busted the year 3000.
• 39:43
  It was released on 13th of January 2003 as the second
• 39:47
  single from their self-titled debut studio album Year 3000
• 39:51
  reached #2 on the UK Singles Chart.
• 39:54
  Can't believe it was. Number two, yeah, right.
• 39:57
  Only #2 absolutely. Fuming.
• 40:00
  Yeah, right, right. So let's get straight to it.
• 40:03
  Ratings out of 10 and what we like and dislike about the song.
• 40:06
  Steve, as our guest, we're going to put you in the spotlight,
• 40:09
  first mate and. Then we're just going to copy
• 40:10
  all your answers, Steve, OK? Yeah, like before.
• 40:13
  That's fine. I don't.
• 40:15
  Think sham can because it's going to be higher than 7.
• 40:20
  So for this oh shade shade already.
• 40:24
  Shade has been. Thrown for me, it's a nine.
• 40:28
  It really is. It's all the way up there.
• 40:30
  Like every now and then I'll be like not today, but the feelings
• 40:36
  it gives me just to go back into my childhood and reminds me of
• 40:40
  every school disco I ever went to all the way up there.
• 40:45
  Yes, Steve clapping. I'm clapping with my clicky
• 40:48
  fingers. I agree.
• 40:51
  I completely agree. Next time.
• 40:54
  I think I'd give it a strong 8.5, Yeah.
• 40:57
  And I think Shannon's face, everybody, you can't see it, but
• 41:02
  she just pulled the upside down smile, the upside down smile
• 41:05
  face, which is always scary. My dad thinks we're garning when
• 41:09
  I make. I'm like, look at this photo.
• 41:10
  It's so funny. And he's like, why are you
• 41:12
  showing me a photo of you garning?
• 41:13
  No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I don't do drugs, this is just
• 41:19
  what I look like when I'm feeling awkward.
• 41:22
  So yeah, a strong 8.5 again. It's the nostalgia element for
• 41:26
  me. How can you not like this song?
• 41:28
  It's, it was so in its time, it was so iconic because it was so
• 41:33
  different to anything that we were listening to.
• 41:36
  If I think back to we were listening to like Britney and
• 41:39
  like the Backstreet Boys and like Avril Lavigne and Pink,
• 41:42
  like they, they didn't sing about things like this.
• 41:45
  They sang, they sang about real life and love and, you know,
• 41:48
  being rebels and that sort of stuff.
• 41:50
  But to have a song that was literally talking about what the
• 41:53
  future might be like was just so cool.
• 41:54
  I just remember really loving it.
• 41:56
  I remember doing the jumps off my bed and learning to have the
• 42:00
  air guitar. And I just, yeah, absolutely
• 42:03
  love it. And again, if you, if I play it
• 42:05
  10 times, I only skip it once. It's one of those things.
• 42:08
  It will be a very rare occasion that I skip it.
• 42:11
  It's not not a skip song for me at all.
• 42:13
  Shannon, Are you ready to devastate the world of Busted?
• 42:16
  Fans, I feel like anybody that's listened to every episode of
• 42:19
  this is going to be like, why is she on this podcast?
• 42:21
  Why is she? Even doing this podcast you can
• 42:23
  just take Shannon's place from. Now on yeah, I do it.
• 42:25
  It's fine. OK, so.
• 42:27
  Now it's Tales 2. I give it a six.
• 42:35
  The silence, the. Silence is deafening.
• 42:39
  I like, I do like the song. I like the themes of this song.
• 42:42
  I like the fondness of this song.
• 42:44
  It's just not a song that I choose to play.
• 42:47
  If I'm like, oh, I want to listen to Busted, I go to She
• 42:50
  wants to be me. I go to Nerdy, I go to Britney,
• 42:54
  I go to, you know, those songs before I would go to.
• 43:01
  But then it could be because I like absolutely annihilated it
• 43:05
  when I was younger and I'm just like, do you know what I mean?
• 43:09
  Because it is one of the hits and I feel like I feel the same
• 43:12
  about most of the hits from both bands to be honest.
• 43:16
  And I think it's because it's so the songs are so good that they
• 43:20
  are overplayed on music channels when I was younger and I used to
• 43:23
  watch them or they're overplayed on the radio.
• 43:26
  Or if you hear like this is in general on any radio station,
• 43:31
  they're going to play a Busted or a McFly song.
• 43:34
  It is * Girl or Five Colours. It is year 3000 or Air Hostess
• 43:39
  or what I go to school for. So although I do like it and I
• 43:43
  like the themes of it, I don't choose to listen to it.
• 43:46
  However, if it came on, if it comes on in the supermarket and
• 43:50
  I'm walking around, you bet you I'm dancing down the aisles.
• 43:52
  I'm. Also recording myself and
• 43:54
  sending a video to you to say. Yeah, this is what I mean.
• 43:59
  Like I wouldn't choose to listen to it now.
• 44:03
  Like I wouldn't choose to listen to it.
• 44:05
  However, it's not bad song. It's not lower than five.
• 44:08
  It's still a really good song. I just think it is over
• 44:13
  saturated, Yeah. However, like I say, every time,
• 44:17
  every single time I say this live is 10 out of 10/10.
• 44:21
  Yeah, 10 out of 10. Always, always.
• 44:23
  I get it, room just erupts. Those cannons, those jumps,
• 44:28
  those got flames that come out that almost burnt us when you
• 44:32
  were pregnant. Oh my.
• 44:33
  God that we were so close to fire.
• 44:35
  It was unreal. We were sweating.
• 44:38
  I have never sweat like I sweat in there in my life.
• 44:41
  It was the middle of June. We were literally was it June?
• 44:44
  Was it end of summer? Something like that.
• 44:47
  It was so hot. We were, all of us were already
• 44:50
  hot and then they put fire on and we were like.
• 44:53
  This is a joke. Like.
• 44:55
  And we were kind of Matt Willis, so we're sweating already.
• 44:58
  Everywhere, every area of my body just sweat.
• 45:04
  Yeah, I think. Yeah, I think when you hear the
• 45:08
  me, me, me, me in the beginning, you know the like little like
• 45:13
  the synthesiser in the background and then you hear
• 45:16
  the. Did it?
• 45:17
  Did it? Did.
• 45:18
  It. Did it.
• 45:19
  And you're like, oh. My God, this is just too good.
• 45:22
  So it's just. The beginning of it for me, as
• 45:24
  soon as I hear that little bit at the beginning, if that's it,
• 45:26
  I'm like jamming, my head's rocking, I'm in the car, I'm
• 45:29
  turning it. Up.
• 45:30
  I'm right. Do you know what?
• 45:31
  If I had busted on shuffle in the car, I wouldn't skip it.
• 45:35
  I wouldn't. It's not a sketch on Yeah, yeah,
• 45:38
  but yeah, it's not a song I would like.
• 45:39
  I'm not like, oh, I'm really in the mood to listen to year 3000.
• 45:43
  Yeah, I get you. I get you.
• 45:45
  OK, so we've talked about the song, we've given our rating.
• 45:47
  Shall we talk about the infamous music video?
• 45:51
  Because how much is going on in 3 minutes and 17 seconds?
• 45:55
  Because it's actually a bit mental.
• 45:57
  So good So. We've all thought of like we,
• 46:01
  we've all watched the video and we've all got something that
• 46:03
  we'd like to sort of talk about. So Steve, do you want to talk a
• 46:07
  little bit about yours first, because I know you had something
• 46:09
  that you wanted to mention about the music video that you liked.
• 46:13
  Yeah, so I just found it hilarious how they go to and
• 46:19
  show their future selves 1 by 1. I love it and it, but it all
• 46:23
  kind of matches who they are like like within the band.
• 46:29
  So you have Matt, who's the funny one.
• 46:31
  But of course when he looks back, he's bold with a beard,
• 46:34
  but I could see him rocking that in the future.
• 46:37
  You were the only one that was actually kind of good looking
• 46:41
  was Charlie, and he was like the good looking one back in the
• 46:44
  day. I just thought the perspective
• 46:46
  of it was really interesting. Yeah, that's so cool.
• 46:49
  And it is an interesting thing to sort of think about, isn't
• 46:51
  it? Like what your future self is
• 46:53
  going to be like? Because even thinking like we're
• 46:55
  in our 30s, even thinking like 30 years ahead, we're going to
• 46:58
  be like in our 60s. Oh my goodness, do you want to
• 47:02
  throw a home? I'm going to lie, but this is
• 47:04
  what they're doing. You know?
• 47:05
  They're thinking about their future selves and what they're
• 47:07
  going to look like. It's just weird.
• 47:09
  It's a weird concept. I like it though.
• 47:11
  I think it's really cool. Like the fact that they think in
• 47:13
  the year 3000 they're going to be alive.
• 47:16
  Yeah, well, yeah. Obviously, busted is forever.
• 47:20
  I know of course, in every single way I remember, I love
• 47:25
  about this. This video is at the beginning.
• 47:27
  Within like the first sort of 10 seconds, you see them jumping up
• 47:31
  and down in this room and the room is blue and there's posters
• 47:34
  on the wall and there's pictures and then they've got guitar and
• 47:37
  they've got their bed. They've got like a chair in the
• 47:39
  corner and albums and photos all over the floor.
• 47:43
  And I remember, I can't remember if it was in a podcast or in an
• 47:45
  interview they saw and they talked about how this was based
• 47:49
  off of the actual house that they lived in.
• 47:52
  So they all moved in. Yeah, they all moved in together
• 47:56
  into this house. And, and McFly also moved in
• 47:59
  together very, very early as well.
• 48:01
  And the bands did spend some time together when they were
• 48:04
  young as well. So there was a lot of like
• 48:06
  intersecting going on, but they. Did a lot right in together,
• 48:08
  didn't they? So they did.
• 48:11
  But I also heard that they were kept that McFly were actually
• 48:14
  kept away from busted by their managers because.
• 48:17
  I've seen this in a podcast. Were quite like.
• 48:20
  It was they were like, they were kept away from Matt, weren't
• 48:23
  they? Because he was like on drugs and
• 48:27
  drinking and stuff and they didn't want yeah.
• 48:30
  That sort of it was the instigator, yeah.
• 48:33
  It was on the On the Men's podcast.
• 48:35
  That was it. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 48:37
  But I love that they and they've got this.
• 48:39
  I'm looking at the picture of their room right now and they're
• 48:41
  just in there. It looks like a bedroom.
• 48:43
  And I remember watching this video online and it was of
• 48:47
  Busted's house and it was them getting, it was James like
• 48:50
  filming himself and he was like, right, we're going to go and
• 48:53
  wake up Matt. And then they get goes into
• 48:55
  Matt's room and then he goes into Charlie's room and one of
• 48:57
  the rooms was a blue like this. See, when I see the video, it
• 49:01
  makes me think about that. And you know how that was their
• 49:03
  actual lives? Like they just lived in this
• 49:05
  house together. They were all like 17/18/19 and
• 49:09
  they just all lived together. And it just reminds me of like
• 49:11
  uni days and like living with your best friends and like
• 49:14
  having the most fun. We used to get the guitar, I was
• 49:16
  out on our ukuleles and we used to just sing in the garden and
• 49:18
  we'd be drunk all the time and nobody knew where anything was.
• 49:21
  Everything was everywhere and you would steal each other's
• 49:23
  cheese and milk and you just be pissed off all the time.
• 49:26
  And it was just so many things going on.
• 49:28
  And I just, every time I see this opening bit, I just, it
• 49:31
  makes me feel like I remember that feeling myself as well as,
• 49:34
  you know, I think they've also got a poster on the wall of a
• 49:39
  girl who looks like she doesn't have any clothes on the top half
• 49:43
  of her. And she's like leaning over on
• 49:45
  what looks like a in the bed and she's got long dark hair.
• 49:48
  It's, it's a bit bit naughty actually.
• 49:50
  I, I feel like I've seen that picture.
• 49:51
  I feel like it might. Maybe it was like Christina or
• 49:54
  somebody like that. Before or it was on your wall.
• 49:57
  Maybe it was, who knows. I can tell you something it
• 50:01
  wasn't. On my it wasn't on Steve's.
• 50:05
  Actually, it might have been by my brother and I ripped that
• 50:08
  shit down. I was like, no, it hasn't got
• 50:11
  tap. It's not musical theatre
• 50:13
  related, no. For those of you that haven't
• 50:16
  guessed so far, Steve is gay if we have.
• 50:22
  The Viking grinder reference wasn't enough.
• 50:26
  Steve doesn't know it himself, but he's gay.
• 50:30
  I like busted. I jumped to that song.
• 50:35
  You do. I love it.
• 50:36
  But yeah, very strange little post in the background.
• 50:38
  There's loads of weird posters. There's another one in the
• 50:40
  corner which looks like cleavage.
• 50:41
  I don't know. They're obviously.
• 50:44
  It's like a teenage boy. It's.
• 50:45
  Gross. Looking at it, I can smell it.
• 50:47
  Do you know what I mean? Can you smell a picture?
• 50:52
  Shannon, do you want to tell us what you like about the video?
• 50:55
  Well, I have two things really I love.
• 50:59
  We cannot watch this music video without referencing Chris
• 51:02
  Bourne. Obviously.
• 51:04
  Love him, love him. I think he's phenomenal in it
• 51:07
  and I love that he like still holds up so dear now.
• 51:11
  But also I, I, when I watch this video, this is the era of busted
• 51:17
  that I see when I like, if you think about busted in general in
• 51:21
  like everyday life, if you're not like watching something or
• 51:23
  if you basically if you like talking to somebody about it, I,
• 51:28
  this is the era. That's what they look like in my
• 51:30
  head still, with the blonde and black hair and the.
• 51:35
  Matte. Swoopy, the swoopy, slightly
• 51:39
  greasy hair from James and the the really, really, really baggy
• 51:44
  trousers to the point where you're like, do they fit you?
• 51:47
  Are they your older brother's clothes?
• 51:50
  Yeah, I love it. Yeah.
• 51:52
  I just love the aesthetic of it. I just think that they look like
• 51:56
  they look exactly how I picture busted in my head.
• 51:59
  I love Charlie's outfit in it. He's wearing like a blazer and
• 52:04
  the blazer has got it says year 3000 in words like on his pocket
• 52:10
  square. It's so cool.
• 52:12
  It's such a look. It's such a look, isn't it?
• 52:14
  Like and Matt with his pinstripe trousers.
• 52:17
  I'm so. I love them, yeah.
• 52:19
  And. Do you know what?
• 52:20
  We still see this amazing, like, cool fashion from them even now.
• 52:23
  And the fly boy's the same. They're very stylish.
• 52:26
  They're very, very stylish. I feel like their fashion has
• 52:30
  not changed at all, but it has grown.
• 52:33
  Do you know what I mean? Yeah, yeah.
• 52:35
  So they've. Grown.
• 52:36
  I mean that is. Apart from Dougie, who's just
• 52:38
  wearing duggies. So Dougie is now dressing like a
• 52:42
  toddler. But the rest of them that look.
• 52:46
  Can we have a moment for Dougie's pirate face?
• 52:48
  Because I was here for his pirate face.
• 52:50
  I was so here for the pirate face.
• 52:52
  Bandanas and his little neck scarf and like his jeans.
• 52:56
  And I love it. I love it, absolutely love it.
• 52:58
  Dougie with long hair is like how I imagine that my mum looks
• 53:03
  at Jon Bon Jovi. Oh yeah.
• 53:05
  The long Do you know what I mean?
• 53:06
  The. Hat do you know the?
• 53:07
  Picture I'm talking about. I do I like.
• 53:10
  Round rim, hat on and his hair is long and it's like a black
• 53:13
  and white photo. Yeah, that's what I mean.
• 53:15
  He's like mine. Jon Bon Jovi.
• 53:18
  Yes he is. Yes he is.
• 53:20
  I love it. Can we also just have a quick
• 53:22
  moment for the anime animations in this video because it's so
• 53:25
  cool. Good.
• 53:27
  They put time. Oh my God, it's amazing.
• 53:29
  They mix animation like with real like with real life.
• 53:34
  It's pictures of like them walking past animations in the
• 53:38
  hallway and like a robot like watching them and it's just so
• 53:41
  cool. I just think it's.
• 53:42
  For the time, it was really like.
• 53:45
  Yeah, very cool. And also there's the triple
• 53:49
  breasted women moment, which is just phenomenal where they're
• 53:52
  wearing the bras and they they take the bras off and they throw
• 53:56
  them at the boys in the car and they're like.
• 53:58
  Swinging and. They're all like, after them,
• 54:00
  yeah. And they're in the car just
• 54:02
  holding the bra like, Oh my God, I think it's.
• 54:05
  Charlie and Matt just fighting over like, bullying.
• 54:08
  And. Like yes, I got this absolutely
• 54:10
  love. It of course he is.
• 54:11
  Of course he is. I mean, obviously when we look
• 54:14
  at the animations of that now, it looks terrible.
• 54:16
  But back then in what do you? That's what I mean, yeah.
• 54:19
  It's really futuristic for them. Yeah, and also looking back on
• 54:23
  it now, it gives me like Futurama vibes, like the style.
• 54:27
  Of the animation. Like with the robots and the
• 54:30
  ships and everything. Really.
• 54:32
  Yes. Like it really throws me to like
• 54:34
  Futurama. Maybe not The Simpsons so much
• 54:37
  because it's not yellow, but yes.
• 54:39
  You get because it's not yellow because.
• 54:41
  It's not yellow, I get. It I get it.
• 54:44
  It is an epic, epic music video for an epic song.
• 54:50
  Now, we couldn't possibly talk about this song without
• 54:52
  mentioning the infamous cover by the Jonas Brothers.
• 54:56
  In 2006, the Jonas Brothers released this cover with the
• 55:00
  permission of James Bond on their debut album.
• 55:02
  Little did he know that they would later become huge, and
• 55:06
  most American fans of the song only actually know the Jonas
• 55:09
  Brothers version. This is actually shocking.
• 55:12
  I swear down I saw this. It was Instagram that that made
• 55:16
  me point this out. Can I before we move on further?
• 55:20
  Yeah, sorry, sorry. I just wanted to say that my my
• 55:25
  Jonah's Brothers rating is higher than the busted one.
• 55:29
  If you can see mine and Steve's face right now, I think Shannon
• 55:33
  may have just got disowned. And if you're not getting kicked
• 55:35
  out of the podcast before, you are now.
• 55:38
  On Facebook like. Shannon is a very big Jonas
• 55:42
  Brothers Stan, right? Let's.
• 55:43
  Put it I I loved them so much when I was younger.
• 55:47
  You, you actually don't understand.
• 55:49
  I was like curly haired. Nick Jonas was the man of my
• 55:55
  dreams. Like Charlie Simpson broke my
• 55:57
  heart. This guy picked it up.
• 56:00
  Picked it back up again. Camp Brock, Curly, that song
• 56:05
  introducing me, Oh my Jesus Christ.
• 56:07
  But even before that, I used to, me and my friend Tara, when we
• 56:12
  were in secondary school, used to use it to not do it.
• 56:17
  And we would, we would go on like it was like called like
• 56:22
  Radio Disney or something. And I would listen to their
• 56:25
  music all the time. And I thought I was so cool.
• 56:28
  I thought I was listening to like an underground artist
• 56:31
  because no, no one around me knew that.
• 56:34
  Yeah, no, yeah, yeah. And I was.
• 56:35
  Very married. I was definitely with You Can't
• 56:39
  Rock and even their stuff, not with Disney like Lovebug.
• 56:43
  Lovebug's so good, yeah. They are such a good and.
• 56:47
  That's how we roll. Like when you look me in the
• 56:50
  eyes, they're all, they're so, so good.
• 56:54
  I will say, I think the only reason why I rate it higher is
• 56:58
  genuinely because I didn't listen to it that much.
• 57:02
  So when I listen to it, it's like, oh, a little nod to when
• 57:05
  I'm a little nod to when I was younger.
• 57:08
  Whereas I listen to Busted so much that it's like there's no
• 57:11
  nod there. Do you know what I mean?
• 57:13
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, it's just a shove.
• 57:16
  It's a It's a big old shove. I remember seeing a video of
• 57:20
  them singing on tour the year 3000 and like so many people
• 57:24
  comment in underneath like this is such a like this is one of my
• 57:28
  favourite songs. And then like one person put the
• 57:30
  everybody does everybody know this is a busted song?
• 57:32
  And then people like who's busted?
• 57:34
  And I was like, mate, I'm not. I was literally like ready to be
• 57:38
  a keyboard warrior like these girls.
• 57:40
  Like he's busted. This is the Jonas Brother.
• 57:44
  Yeah, I. Got like the no the the Busted
• 57:47
  did not do well with this song. Shut up.
• 57:51
  Yes, they only lasted 2 years. OK, That's not their fault.
• 57:54
  Blame Charlie, don't blame James and Matt.
• 57:57
  Blame Charlie, he saw. The he saw the error of his ways
• 58:00
  10 years later. Do you know what I mean?
• 58:02
  It took a while, but you know, he got there in the end.
• 58:06
  I just can't believe people don't know this is a busted
• 58:08
  song. It's such.
• 58:09
  AI know that does trigger me. I think as well for me it's the
• 58:14
  lyric changes because they made it so family friendly.
• 58:18
  Yeah, it was for Radio Disney. It was like.
• 58:20
  Shut up. That's the reason they had to
• 58:22
  change it because the Disney didn't want them to say your
• 58:26
  girl's fine and. All this and that.
• 58:29
  This song is about boobs and fancying your great great
• 58:35
  granddaughter. I'm sorry nobody cares enough to
• 58:39
  this about boobs. Let's just put it out there
• 58:41
  that. Is also a main reference to the
• 58:44
  movie that the song's based on. Exactly and not.
• 58:48
  Because Marty. Because Marty's mom was in love
• 58:51
  with him. Exactly, people.
• 58:54
  People are and the pussyfoot around things like this and I'm
• 58:58
  not here for it. This is not this is not like a
• 59:01
  kiddie, you know, 10 year old song.
• 59:05
  It's a stupid song that we all loved when we were young
• 59:07
  teenagers that we thought was funny.
• 59:09
  Don't be changing it. Sorry.
• 59:11
  Do not be changing it. I'm not here for your great,
• 59:13
  great, great granddaughter who's doing fine.
• 59:15
  No, no. I want to know what she looks
• 59:18
  like. She's pretty fine girl, you know
• 59:20
  what I mean? Like.
• 59:22
  And also girls. Girls there with round hair like
• 59:26
  Star Wars, float above the floor.
• 59:30
  I'm sorry, where does that even fit in the song?
• 59:32
  That's the triple breasted women line.
• 59:34
  No girls there with round hair like Star Wars floater above the
• 59:40
  floor. That's how that goes, no?
• 59:42
  No, no. Shocking.
• 59:46
  That's it. That's all I've got to say.
• 59:48
  Shocking phonics for you. There's a phonics as well.
• 59:54
  Shocking. And that makes the first one you
• 59:55
  said actually acceptable. Doing fine.
• 59:58
  I can have that now. Why add that?
• 59:59
  Star Wars? Why that?
• 1:00:00
  Doesn't make any sense because they don't.
• 1:00:02
  They didn't want the triple breasted women lying in there.
• 1:00:05
  And they changed Michael Jackson to Kelly Clarkson, which I can
• 1:00:07
  get on board with. Some people don't know who
• 1:00:09
  Michael Jackson is. Now, obviously the younger
• 1:00:12
  audience might not know him. I don't know, whatever.
• 1:00:15
  Facts. And I feel like they would have
• 1:00:16
  though. She and she's she's pretty
• 1:00:18
  relevant though, isn't she? Kelly Clarkson?
• 1:00:20
  She's quite relevant. She's Americanized as well.
• 1:00:22
  I. Love her, I love Kelly Clarkson.
• 1:00:24
  But, but I don't have any qualms with Kelly Clarkson.
• 1:00:27
  So you know this is a Jonas Brothers issue, not a Kelly
• 1:00:30
  Clarkson. Issue actually I love.
• 1:00:32
  Her fun fact I saw Kelly Clarkson in concert in Plymouth.
• 1:00:36
  In Plymouth, she was a when she was a young Ting and I was a
• 1:00:40
  young Ting. It was great.
• 1:00:42
  I loved it, absolutely loved it. It was the breakaway era, you
• 1:00:45
  know. Oh.
• 1:00:46
  My goodness. Oh.
• 1:00:47
  My God, so good I cried. What a dream.
• 1:00:50
  So yeah, preferences. I think I've made mine pretty
• 1:00:53
  fucking clear. Genders.
• 1:00:54
  Mothers can go down the bloody toilet for all I care.
• 1:00:56
  This is a busted song, nothing else.
• 1:00:58
  Don't change the lyrics, you've ruined it.
• 1:01:02
  Sorry though. Sorry, Nick.
• 1:01:05
  And sorry, Oh, what's his name? Kevin.
• 1:01:08
  Kevin. John.
• 1:01:09
  What's his name? Kevin, everybody.
• 1:01:11
  Oh my God, I feel like. Name.
• 1:01:13
  I am. He's no doggy Point there.
• 1:01:16
  Is he? He's no doggy pointer, Shannon.
• 1:01:20
  He's not, but he's he. Is no, no, sorry, I'm not up for
• 1:01:24
  it. So yeah, anyway, obviously
• 1:01:27
  Shannon prefers the Jones Brothers version.
• 1:01:28
  I think we should. We've already established that,
• 1:01:30
  Steve. Only but like nought .5 only
• 1:01:32
  nought .5 mile. It's still too much.
• 1:01:35
  It's still not .5 too much I mean.
• 1:01:38
  Good, Steve. So I I do like it in some ways.
• 1:01:44
  I don't like the word changes because that triggers me no
• 1:01:47
  matter who does that. Yeah, but I just feel like
• 1:01:51
  they've made it too Americanized and there's extra things in the
• 1:01:55
  tuning to make kind of fit with their flow.
• 1:01:59
  And like I've said before, I love Joe Bro, like I love them
• 1:02:03
  Joe Bro, but they can't do that. And it's like even Matt said
• 1:02:09
  when Jonas Brothers did the cover, he was like, then when
• 1:02:16
  they finally came together, he loves that version.
• 1:02:19
  Oh yeah, it was good. It was good when they came
• 1:02:21
  together. Yeah, yeah, I'll, I'll give them
• 1:02:23
  that. They sang the original so I'm OK
• 1:02:26
  with it. I'll be in the middle and I'll
• 1:02:29
  take the 2.0 greatest hits. Thank you very much.
• 1:02:31
  Yeah. OK, We'll let you off, Steve.
• 1:02:33
  I'll let you off. I just think it's interesting to
• 1:02:35
  know that James, like James, told the story.
• 1:02:38
  It was a podcast. I can't remember if it was the
• 1:02:39
  Nikki Byrne podcast or another one that I heard James Byrne,
• 1:02:42
  James Bond was on. But he did say that when his
• 1:02:46
  management sort of pitched this idea that that there was a small
• 1:02:49
  and up and coming band in America that we're looking for a
• 1:02:53
  song and they really like the year 3000.
• 1:02:54
  And they were really interested in sort of like having the
• 1:02:56
  rights to it so that they could perform it and do like a their
• 1:02:59
  own version of it. And he said that they didn't
• 1:03:02
  really seem they like they were going to be very big.
• 1:03:05
  He didn't know that, you know, there was a lot of traction
• 1:03:07
  behind them or ever. And then he said he released the
• 1:03:09
  song to them. And then within like a year, it
• 1:03:11
  was just like everywhere. And then within a few months
• 1:03:13
  they just become this massive band.
• 1:03:15
  And within a year, they were just huge and the song was just
• 1:03:18
  there and that was it for that. The American audience have
• 1:03:20
  busted. They didn't really know them
• 1:03:21
  anymore because they were listening to it.
• 1:03:23
  This is the Jonas Buffers version.
• 1:03:25
  Don't you think that just says so much about James Bond's
• 1:03:28
  writing though? I love him so much.
• 1:03:30
  How nice is that though? Like he was just like, yeah,
• 1:03:32
  it's cool, let them have it. Like what?
• 1:03:33
  He yeah, like his big. Songs like.
• 1:03:37
  And it's also one of their biggest hits, like naturally
• 1:03:39
  insane. They are huge and especially in
• 1:03:42
  America and you how like it just says so much about James's
• 1:03:48
  writing that that this huge band, One of their, if not their
• 1:03:52
  biggest hit is written by him. Exactly.
• 1:03:58
  That the band and the and the people performing it doesn't
• 1:04:02
  really matter because it's going to be a.
• 1:04:04
  Hit. It's a good song exactly because
• 1:04:05
  of the song. He's a very, very clever man.
• 1:04:07
  Isn't he a worm? Isn't it?
• 1:04:09
  James EB, We love you. OK, so the final question I've
• 1:04:14
  put before we close off for today's episode because we're
• 1:04:16
  already around an hour. How have we done it?
• 1:04:18
  We do this every time is having a think about what we predict
• 1:04:23
  the year 3000 might look like. And I thought this would be
• 1:04:25
  quite cool way of just like rounding it off for us, sort of
• 1:04:28
  making our predictions. I had a little think about it.
• 1:04:31
  I think there will be a lot of like robotic AI sort of
• 1:04:38
  involvement. I think there will be barely any
• 1:04:40
  jobs left because I think a lot of them will be being run by
• 1:04:44
  robots and AI and that sort of stuff.
• 1:04:46
  And I think that it's going to put a lot of people out of work
• 1:04:49
  and that people will almost go into like, without saying The
• 1:04:53
  Hunger Games, The Hunger Games. Do you know what I mean?
• 1:04:56
  In that like, you know, like that sort of living.
• 1:04:59
  They're just like, yeah, living by district and living off the
• 1:05:02
  land and living by trade and living, living like that.
• 1:05:05
  Because people aren't going to have jobs, so they're not going
• 1:05:07
  to have money. So, you know, money is going to
• 1:05:09
  become a digital thing. If you've got it, you've got it.
• 1:05:12
  If you haven't, you genuinely haven't.
• 1:05:13
  And that's it. There's no in between.
• 1:05:15
  There's no, oh, yeah, I've got a couple of grand in the bank and
• 1:05:17
  there's no like, Oh yeah, I've got millions.
• 1:05:20
  It's going to be millions or nothing.
• 1:05:21
  That's how I see it. I think that we are going to
• 1:05:24
  turn into very, very lazy people because people are going to be
• 1:05:29
  doing our jobs for us. For those of us that want to
• 1:05:31
  continue living, you know, the way that we should be living,
• 1:05:35
  then that'll be fine. But for a lot of people, it will
• 1:05:38
  make people very, very lazy. I think we'll just all become
• 1:05:41
  big fat slobs that do everything online.
• 1:05:44
  Oh my God, it's Wally. It's worth Wally.
• 1:05:48
  So yeah, robots and and us all being fat and lazy and maybe The
• 1:05:51
  Hunger Games just chucked my microphone into my boobs.
• 1:06:00
  Sorry everyone. Anyway, yeah, say what you
• 1:06:04
  think, Shan. I think, well, to be honest,
• 1:06:09
  when I think of what it looked like, half of what I think is
• 1:06:13
  already is already summoned. Like I think, you know, like
• 1:06:18
  people currently that have the money for it can walk into their
• 1:06:22
  house and go lights on, yeah, like curtains open, windows
• 1:06:29
  open, blah, blah. It is going to be a very AI kind
• 1:06:35
  of lead society, but also I think there's going to be huge
• 1:06:40
  backlash of it. I don't think people would give
• 1:06:44
  up their livelihoods or their or their jobs or whatever without
• 1:06:51
  going down singing. Do you know what I mean?
• 1:06:52
  I think the. Creatives of us will.
• 1:06:55
  Yeah, creative people. But.
• 1:06:56
  Also, I see like, you know, the people at the moment that are
• 1:07:01
  like close the borders. Do you know what I mean?
• 1:07:03
  I see those kind of people really like fighting for their
• 1:07:08
  their them. Do you know what I mean?
• 1:07:10
  I see a lot of I just don't see goodness, genuinely, I don't see
• 1:07:17
  good. I see technology will have come
• 1:07:20
  on leaps and bounds. I see fashion still being in Y2K
• 1:07:23
  because let's be honest, that comes around every 10 years
• 1:07:25
  anyway. Proper.
• 1:07:26
  We'll be back in the 60s and it'll go through each generation
• 1:07:29
  again. Flares will be back.
• 1:07:30
  Yeah, Autumn still wears flares to school.
• 1:07:33
  I love flares. I just bought a pair of jeans.
• 1:07:36
  There we go. I think like fashion will still
• 1:07:38
  be like in its in its loop. I think that we're all going to
• 1:07:43
  be stuck to our phones or the equivalent of I think it's going
• 1:07:47
  to be very, very technology based world and I think that
• 1:07:51
  those who like it love it and those who don't fight for it to
• 1:07:57
  not be how it is. Yeah, love that.
• 1:08:00
  Very Hunger Games like I see it being.
• 1:08:02
  It really is. To the death.
• 1:08:04
  Yeah, one or the other, one way or the other, yeah.
• 1:08:06
  Yeah, yeah. One then, Steve, give us your
• 1:08:08
  lowdown on the year 3000. So I kind of, I'm with both of
• 1:08:14
  you on this one. I do think that technology will
• 1:08:16
  improve and it will start to take over and, you know, it will
• 1:08:21
  get to kind of that break where humanity will kind of turn
• 1:08:25
  around. Like actually, no, like we, we
• 1:08:27
  need to have our humanity back. You know, when I do feel like
• 1:08:32
  we're going to fight against it and kind of not defeat it, but
• 1:08:38
  live Poes distantly in a better place than we are now.
• 1:08:44
  Like Pokémon? That's no, not like Pokémon.
• 1:08:48
  That's what that's like. You're enslaved animals.
• 1:08:51
  No, as much as I love Pokémon, but but no, I think, you know,
• 1:08:56
  we'll have the battle and we'll come out the other side.
• 1:08:58
  So we're kind of living pro pendantly where they can have
• 1:09:01
  their jobs, we can have our jobs.
• 1:09:02
  There isn't a battle per SE, yeah, anymore.
• 1:09:08
  I agree. But you know, thinking about it,
• 1:09:11
  it's 973 years in the future. Do you think that?
• 1:09:16
  I think there's a very high chance we could back, be back
• 1:09:19
  where we are now because 973 years in the future we could
• 1:09:24
  have gone through all of that, beaten the like they could have
• 1:09:27
  said, do you know what we give up on the AI and gone back
• 1:09:30
  again. I reckon.
• 1:09:33
  Some sort of? Time we could be utopia.
• 1:09:35
  Yeah, true. Some sort of alien invasion,
• 1:09:38
  maybe, because there's something going on in there.
• 1:09:40
  Let's face it, there's something going on out there.
• 1:09:42
  Tom Delong. Tell us not get into this this
• 1:09:47
  debate anyway, maybe before we get too deep into controversial
• 1:09:54
  opinions, we should round it off there.
• 1:09:56
  But we'd love to know what you guys think the year 3000 might
• 1:09:59
  look like. So head over to our Instagram
• 1:10:01
  and make sure you comment on our recent post to let us know what
• 1:10:04
  you think it might look like. Well, here we are again at the
• 1:10:08
  end of another episode. How time flies when you're
• 1:10:12
  talking about the future. Hey, see.
• 1:10:14
