MORNING

Hope everyone is well today. We did the Rot Bar last night and what a show that was by the way! Thanks to everyone who tuned in and especially everyone who phoned in, some old favourites in there like Ben, Luva and Clare, some new heads, all brilliant. I do genuinely drink 7 beers while we record so feeling a bit slow today but nevertheless, the show must go on...

I teased the Men Are Class hats on the Rot Bar last night, those and the t shirts will be launched on 10th August! And we've got more stickers coming this week.

Also, just wanted to quickly say, I dropped the news on both the Rot bar last night and the new episode that me and my mrs are expecting our third kid in the new year, and I've received a lot of nice messages off the back of that. Thank you very much. Its a mad thing, we've known for a while now and I've genuinely felt quite weird not mentioning it on the pod. I think Jake might have been the first person I told and naturally it's something thats been on my mind a lot, so it felt weird recording together and trying not to bring it up (and Im fairly sure I slipped a couple of times, shout out Olivia who spotted one of those). Sounds mad but I almost felt a bit guilty not mentioning it to you lot and there was a part of my brain that was ticking things off like 'gotta tell my family, gotta tell close friends, can probably start mentioning it on stage after a certain point, but before that I should probably tell the Rotters'. You wait a good few weeks before telling anyone in case anything goes wrong with the pregnancy of course, but to be honest me and the wife have had that a couple of times and if anything it has helped to be able to talk to people about it when that happens, but when I say 'people' I mean close friends, rather than you lovely lunatics who send me pictures of Mcgreggor's penis. But genuinely I do want to say thank you. We don't wanna pat ourselves on the back too hard because there's still loads more we want to achieve with the pod, including a 'HOW TO FIX A MAN' documentary where we meet and help Jack Roworth, but the fact that we have you guys paying for the extra content we make and indeed selling out tour shows of ours means I can go into a third pregnancy feeling much more confident in terms of being able to provide for my little family than I would have done otherwise. So thank you. More kids, more madness, more patreon content, and likely more hair transplants needed. On we go.

We're recording this week's patreon tonight and its gonna be a state of the nation special somewhat focusing on Adam Brookes the Essex PR guy. Should be fun. Don't grass.

And then we've got episodes 99 and 100. Plus the live show in London in 10 days, which we have some really special stuff planned for.

Take it easy and much love x
