*By the way darlin's I haven't been uploading much on youtube and missed XFM Friday because I haven't really been home all week. Will try to record and upload for today or tomorrow and plan to explain in the video, but figured I will let you all know here that I am OK.

Since no one satisfactorily explained what Marmalade and Jam etc are, i'll take a shot. What makes Marmalade distinct from the others is that it contains the rind of the fruit used (typically a citrus but was originally, historically, made from Quinces). I heard a comedian once describe Marmalade as someone has taken the worst part of the fruit, which most people throw away, and made it spreadable! πŸ˜‚ The rind gives it a slight bitterness, but also tons of flavour from all the oils it contains. Orange is most common these days but I did make a batch of lime marmalade a couple of years ago from a bumper crop off of my lime tree. I love Marmalade, but it has soooooo much sugar in it. As far as jam and jelly go, thats a little more nuanced, and tbh, probably not worth worrying too much about but basically you could say they are made the same way, but jelly is strained to remove the fruit so its texture is smoother and more consistent. Jam still has some fruit in it so it has a more 'lumpy?' texture. Having said all that, it's probable that there are producers out there that just call things whatever they want, so... maybe worth adding that there are also 'Conserves'. These are basically a very chunky jam with a very high fruit content. Sort of the opposite of what you call jelly. Hope that helped?πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Its been i while soooooo TREE WIZARD

Joshyboiiiiii

Soooo you passed on the opportunity to have a shit while having a shower... Disappointed in ya

Joshyboiiiiii

Ooh, that's a good one!

John George

And Howard Goodall who does the music for Blackadder is interviewed by Cunk. I think it's in this series but I may be wrong.

Jeffrey44

I am happy to not even know what colostrum is! πŸ˜…πŸ€£

Mandy Cane Lane

Hahaha, thank you Terje πŸ’šπŸ’š I am so close to finding a nice place, I can smell it! 🀣

Mandy Cane Lane

Yeah I think somebody else mentioned that marmalade in general is citrus based. I can rmember it being really tangy because of all the rind that came in it, so I can imagine a lemon one would be quite bitter.

Who doesn't want to model the Yalta Conference, right? ;) But they would need Churchill as well - I didn't catch if Mark already had a model of him(?). I was going to ask more about the law things you were waiting on Mandy, but I found some answers in other comments, so my curiosity is at least partially satisfied. Apartment hunting can be tough, with a lot of downs during the process. But I'm crossing all my fingers and toes and hope that a good one comes along soon. And with a bathroom ceiling that you don't immediately have to paint :)

Terje FlΓ₯gan

I've just realised that Geoffrey Palmer, the doctor who wants his sausages in Fawlty Towers also appears in the last series of Blackadder.

John George

I couldn't fit Cunk in, cos I wanted to do each show only once, rather than keep looping back via Taskmaster, Wilty and Cats. There's a couple of options for Cunk. Mark Lawson the tv critic appears as a talking head in Cunk and Extras. Richard Curtis appears in Cunk and wrote a couple of shows, plus he appears on the phone in Extras ('tell him I'm snowboarding'). Cunk's writer Ben Caudell was exec producer on some of Peep Show. The only thing I was sure of was Fawlty Towers had to go at one end, since the Andrew Sachs reference was the only link I could find!

John George

You forgot to do Cunk on Britain but there is a link from that back to another show that Mandy has reacted to. Actually, you can probably just link everything via Would I Lie to You. It's kind of like a hub and everything is linked to it because so many people have been on it. I'm glad you didn't do that though, that would be a boring way to link it all together.

Jeffrey44

A mortgage? That is how most people buy a house here. I have 2 more years then I own every brick. Renting especially with the ridiculous prices means you are throwing money away and getting nothing, just making someone else rich.

Stuart

I can't say I know what breast milk tastes like, but I do know what colostrum tastes like, and you definitely don't want that.

irreverend

Three Cornered Rug was an interesting band I saw once....

irreverend

Lemon marmalade is a thing as well. As a kid I recall the difference between jam and marmalade being that marmalade was sweet but also had a bitterness to it? *shrug*

irreverend

Oh yay! Finally some answers! Haha, thank you Stanley! πŸ™ŒπŸ»πŸ’š

Mandy Cane Lane

Ah I'm still proud of myself for remembering something from the Ricky Gervais show days

Remi

That's good πŸ’œ

Josh Read

πŸ’šπŸ’šπŸ’š It is, thank you! πŸ™ŒπŸ»βœ¨οΈ

Mandy Cane Lane

Hahaha! A masterful wordsmith 🀣

Mandy Cane Lane

Hahhaha! No, she only lets me visit. But everytime I do she licks my forehead clean. It both hurts and is nice to feel loved, lol

Mandy Cane Lane

Pretty much. I am the third child and female, my success has never been important πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

Mandy Cane Lane

Hahaha, that is a big building kind of public rule. Not really a law, so he can't change that. πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

Mandy Cane Lane

Are you buying or renting?

James Aston

I have heard jelly and jam in the US, both meaning fruit goo πŸ˜…

Mandy Cane Lane

OMG!! That is all hilarious! 🀣🀣

Mandy Cane Lane

That and some other stuff, just a whole bunch of Argentine political and economical mumbo jumbo. For example it is illegal to have dollars here. And properties are valued in dollars. Makes for some tough times. Lol

Mandy Cane Lane

Maybe I should! Haha, that sounds like an a amazing deal!! πŸ™ŒπŸ»βœ¨οΈ Happy for you! πŸ’š

Mandy Cane Lane

Really? You've acquired an audience from the other side of the world and learnt so much stuff. Met and learnt about new people and cultures and they're just like "Meh". Like Gru's mom. πŸ€ͺπŸ˜‚

Benjamin Taylor-Yates

The way I heard it, jam is a fruit preserve with the fruit still in it and jelly is a preserve without bits of fruit (ie: only the jelly). Jell-o is a US brand name for gelatine, which we started to call jelly for short just to confuse things. Marmalade is a kind of tangy orange jam. But these days you can get jam and marmalade in varieties (like smooth/chunky peanut butter) without fruit bits but we still call it all jam/marmalade. I have a sudden urge for a sammich 🀀 Oh best of luck with the search too. The ideal Mandy Manor is just waiting to be found, no doubts.

.

None of that stuck in my head 🀣πŸ€ͺ

Mandy Cane Lane

That one doesn't work on me. πŸ˜…

Mandy Cane Lane

It is not going great and is in fact stressing me out like crazy, but thank you for your well wishes. πŸ’š May I ask what to call you? I know you are my twin, but I feel like I need a name for you. πŸ€­πŸ€—

Mandy Cane Lane

Well hopefully you find it soon, didn't you say you can only move on Saturdays or has SeΓ±or Milei scrapped that asinine ritual?

Remi

Hahaha, nono, I have to do both, and plan on decorating my new place 😩

Mandy Cane Lane

Depends, is it a jam, jelly or marmalade jar? πŸ€ͺ

Mandy Cane Lane

🀣🀣🀣

Mandy Cane Lane

Oh this is so cool! Awesome work John!! πŸ™ŒπŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»βœ¨οΈ

Mandy Cane Lane

Hahahhaa! What a perfect interpretation! Bravo! πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»

Mandy Cane Lane

I honestly didn't pay attention... but if I was not horrified it must be because he was decent 🀣

Mandy Cane Lane

I am still confused. Lol. I have heard all three of those names in the US and they were all referencing some kind of fruit goo in a jar. πŸ˜…

Mandy Cane Lane

Thank you Ma'am πŸ€ͺ

Mandy Cane Lane

Lmao! I rather have all my windows intact, thank you. 🀣 My family/friends do know I do this, yes. They just don't care and don't really ask anything. πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

Mandy Cane Lane

Lmao! No mansions yet! It is going kinda poorly actually. Really hard to find what I want

Mandy Cane Lane

Well, kind of a mix of both, Lol. I have saved up for years and going to try to do that thing where you put a downpayment and then pay it off monthly for several years. So like renting and owning after 20 years πŸ˜…

Mandy Cane Lane

I hope you’re planning on buying a place instead of renting? Unless you absolutely have to (but you’ve already got a roof over your head) you’re essentially giving money away with nothing to show for it.

(Just) Steve

Ooh lovely, what kind of subgenre are we talking about? Wheelchair x4 are a Powerviolence band. Powerviolence bands often have names like the ones you mentioned.

Yoshua Simoleit

A late xfm is better than no XFM anyway, I remember you made an off hand comment about apartment hunting how is that going? Are you buying that beach side mansion to throw parties if so I promise not to do a Will from the Inbetweeners and fill your little lovely infinity pool with any bodily fluids

Remi

Good to hear you're back to the market. Couple of houses and flats near me for sale. πŸ€— Low price! Some of them even have some windows intact 🀣🀣. I get what you mean about having nothing. I didn't realise how much I was gonna spend on just stuff I took for granted at home. I bought a tin of beans; started making dinner and came to realise I had no tin opener! 🀣 And no internet for 3 weeks! I could have died. I was stuck with satellite TV, watching nothing but big bang theory. Jelly, Jam, Marmalade. Ones American, ones British, ones a jam made of predominantly Oranges. Jelly for British people is the wibbly wobbly clear semi-solid stuff. I often wonder; do your friends, family and/or colleagues know you do this stuff and how popular you are? You must get questions about it. πŸ€”

Benjamin Taylor-Yates

Sir, we do not call that Jelly here. So... that's one difference I guess.

Z is for Zed

Marmalade maybe has something to do with citrus? I've only seen it in Orange and Lime flavours. Our jelly is your Jello. Your jelly is also our Jam, as is your Jam.

Kirk Deighton

There used to be an extreme metal band called 'Fuck.. I'm Dead', and there was another metal band called 'Shitloads Of Fuck All'. Dunno if they're still around

I-Love-My-Brick

Is it just me or does Super Hans actually have a pretty good voice?, sounds a lot like Peter Murphy

I-Love-My-Brick

Mark shot Gerard with a wank bullet! That was despicable! I love Mark, he's the worst 😁

DriveIn

Yes possibly. The economic situation in Argentina sounds wild

Kyle Clark

What line of work are you in, Kyle?

Jeffrey44

Yeh spotted it immediately and started laughing thinking of Will calling him Wolf and being corrected. πŸ˜„ Some things just stick in your head.

Tee Tee

Can I borrow a jar of love?!

Joeb Rogers

Good decision, move house, leave the decorating :)

Alan

Glad your well Mandy! Hope the house hunting is going well and isn’t too stressful for ya πŸ€—

Did anyone recognise the shop keeper with the beard as 'Wolfie', one of the mechanics who threw Will into the river in the work experience episode of Inbetweeners?

John George

i rent in Greece, cost me 500 euro month, i have 2 bedrooms , wifi, parking space, aircon , fully fitted kitchen, fully furnished , completely modern , sea view , zero crime rate , zero bills ( all included ) my visa is a digital nomad visa, so i get a year but have extended to 4 years, maybe you should look at moving country not apartment !!

Kyle Clark

I don't understand, what law did you need to wait to be passed before you can buy your own place? I hope it's a quicker process than it is here anyway. It took about 8 months for my place to be finalised before I could move in

James Aston

Talking of weird band names, there is a band here in Scotland, who I actually love and they are very good, but they are called Wheelchair Wheelchair Wheelchair Wheelchair.

Yoshua Simoleit

Jelly is just what Americans call jam. To us, jelly is what you would call jello

Julian T

Will Kitana not let you move in with her? Her bed is big enough and comes with a free wash from Kitana every morning. 😸
