This episode is presented by Monzo. Josh, I love the summer holiday, aside from being asked for an ice cream every 32 seconds.

Did you do Windy Pox?

Pretty cute, that one. Even for an old, sour, slag like me.

**Josh Widdicombe** (3:29)
Oh, you're dead behind the eyes, aren't you, Rob? You're dead behind the eyes.

**Rob Beckett** (3:32)
Do you know what? Yeah.

**Josh Widdicombe** (3:34)
Yeah.

**SPEAKER_2** (3:34)
I rubbed Josh Widdicombe.

**Rob Beckett** (3:36)
I swing in and out of it. I'm all right. I'm good.
I can see my diary clearing up and opening up, and I can feel myself relaxing.

**Josh Widdicombe** (3:46)
After all these years, you finally opened up your diary.

**Rob Beckett** (3:49)
I'm three weeks away from just fucking having a cup of tea and wearing hemp.

**Josh Widdicombe** (3:54)
Oh, yeah.

**Rob Beckett** (3:54)
Can you wear hemp?

**Josh Widdicombe** (3:56)
Not if you want to look good.

**Rob Beckett** (3:57)
I might do a sage. You know, a burned sage in my house.

**Josh Widdicombe** (4:01)
Yeah. So talk to me about it. Well, let me talk about this, and then I'm going to see about your new hippie persona.

**Rob Beckett** (4:07)
I'm making this up as I go along.

**Josh Widdicombe** (4:07)
Sorry about the fart midway through. I was going to re-record it as I also hate my embarrassing mum voice in this.
This is my daughter Bella just before she turned two. Mentioned at the time, but somehow forgot for about months. Never miss a podcast. I'm a huge fan of you both and love seeing you live. Bella's now two and a half, if it's definitely like living with a tiny stand up comedian. A big shout out to my sister-in-law Kaz in Tunbridge, Wales, who got me hooked on this when Bella was born. Thanks and love, Emily and Epsom.
