If you are listening to this, you are listening to Rhod Gilbert's Best Bits, some of the best bits of my Saturday morning radio show, live on BBC Radio Wales. This week, I'm in my kitchen in London. My co-host is Lucy Beaumont. And Barry Castagnola drops in for Lunch Club.
We have had some, uh, emails and things in the week, uh, Lucy. So, I'll read one out to you. / Yeah. / It says here, "Hi, Rhod, just listening to a podcast a couple of weeks ago, you commented on ... you commented on how strange it was for people to purchase different elements of their chippy tea from different chipshops." ... Did I? I don't remember. This is from Cathy in Forest of Dean. I don't remember / it is quite strange / to buy different elements / different chipshops / isn't it? / I must have been saying it is weird ... somebody must have said, "I get / sausage from ... / Yeah? / ... from one place and / go / curry sauce from another one, and ... have you ever done that? / __ __ __ __ should do that. / You think it's ... it's actually objectionable? / Yeah. I ... I think, they ... / Insulting? / It is insulting. / __ what Cathy says / my h__ / for years", she says / each fortnight, he buys / from one shop, ... / Huh huh, / ... drives down the road, buys a small pour of curry sauce from another shop." That ... that seems ... / From a chipshop? / Presumably from another chipshop / or is it from / if it __s from a Chinese, that might be different then, 'cause __ __ __ __ curry from / Cathy doesn't say __ ... I'll carry on / half / email. See if she __s / each time they / quizzically look at him / ask / second shop / just having curry saurce / Huh huh / each time they would quizzically look at him and / "Any chips for that?" / チップスは？/ he eventually got fed up / every time / now he replies, "No, thanks, I will drink it in the car on the way home. / チップスはいらないよ。このソースは帰りに車の中で飲むために買ったんだから。 / I'm not sure which promotes the most quizzical look / curry sauce / or the thought / drinking it in the car / says / long-time podcast (listener) / they are quite weird / strange community down there. No offense, Forest of Dean, but you are weird, aren't you? / is that / have you ever done that? / do get better chips in one place and better fish in another / coming back to me / this whole thing. I'm sure we covered / exhaustively in a show / I think I've done it myself. I think I've got / better fish / chips in another / you've got me thinking, actually / 'cause / that I do like / even fish / have you ever done it? You're from Hull. When you were growing up in Hull ... they've got good fish & chips shops there, haven't they? / excellent / best / a __ once in London / What? At the ... at the state of / fish & chips / in London / it costs 12 quid, and it was just awful. / It's unbelievable. / Ahgg ... / It is ... it is a tenner here for fish & chips. / and now, 'cause we have / chip spice / you know / What chip spice? / Well, exactly. / like a secret. / it's only in Hull / I don't understand / allowed to say / never heard of it. I'm 46 this year / I __ ... / I played in Hull many many times. / It's not __ __ __ __. This chip spice is called __ chip spice. But nobody knows where it comes from / it's / like / made of / really got me going / a different / it's not like / chicken sauce or something, is it? / No. / You know they do that in Australia. They put that chicken sauce stuff on / No. Uh, it's like, orange / the chicken sauce stuff is orange. / チキンソースもオレンジ色だよ / it's not got chicken in it. / Are you sure? / Yeah. It's like paprika, and, it's, like, a special formula / Only in Hull? / You can't get it anywhere else. And I'm thinking about bringing it / I don't know / you could be, like, Hull's / what's that ... what was that sauce he brought out / Dragons' Den / Reggae Reggae. / Reggae Reggae Sauce. You could do the same for Hull / You'd need to get a jingle. / コマーシャルソングを作らなきゃ / we'll sort this out in a minute / think / uh / I'll tell you what. It is slim pickings from the paper this morning / our first feature is / let us know / from another one / but, hey, it'll do for now.
Hi, guys. I had cod from one chipshop, and nextdoor to the chipshop was a Chinese takeaway. And I had / what's he gonna say, L__? / his cod from one chipshop / goes / nextdoor / Chips? / "Chips" is __ the answer __ was looking for. / cod from one chipshop, nextdoor to the chipshop / a Chinese takeaway / bean sprouts / No. / That's it / these people / That's it. No explanation / __ __ from __ __ / his cod in one place, and his bean sprouts / says / Chinese / no explanation / get cod. I don't wanna brag / I do know a lot about fish / 自慢じゃないけど、魚にはちょっと詳しいのよ / talking about / from fishing family, Rhod / my great grandad was on the trawlers and, honest to god, he got washed overboard and washed back on again. / ... That's such a fisherman's tale / it isn't / fall for that / every trawlerman says that. / Does he? / the time __ got washed overboard / by a whale / funny / back out again / 鯨に飲み込まれて脱出したって話もよく聞くよな。 / innit? / well-known / a well-known one, that. / Pinocchio ... Pinocchio did that. / Pinocchio didn't / eaten by whale / I think he was lying / again / you've got to watch Pinocchio. / ピノキオをちゃんと観たほうがいいよ / w__ else __ __ believe / ... This is from Richard in St. George ... "I know someone ...", says / who buys / in / south / beautiful, / Hmm. / beautiful, sunny resort, uh ... lovely beach / lovely f__ / nice vertical slide that I was scared of / child / blue in color / hi / chips in Barry, curry in Campton, and / chicken in P__ / and eat them together. / Wow / Now / This is a song. / Is ... / __ __ __ / I know someone who buys / curry in / thing / on the coast near Cardiff / you know the blue slide, vertical / yeah / chicken in __, not too far away / again / another little resort / seaside near Cardiff / it's a bit of a drive to get / chips in B__ / bit / you do risk / chips being / presuming that he's doing it in chronological order / ここに書かれてあるとおりの順番で調達していくと想定すると / and then, Campton ... the producer / we think / Campton / in Bedfordshire / is there another Campton near ... near Barry in __? Otherwise you're going / your chicken near Cardiff / to get your curry sauce, which seems a little ... I would say ... we need to hear from that person. Richard, get that person in touch / Or is there another Campton? / chip / This is, uh ... this is very forward. / 藪から棒！ / This is your first time co-hosting this show, Lucy. I'm not sure you're ready for this. Have I ever had ...? Repeat the question, please / have / play along / home listeners / Imagine you are me. Put yourself in my seat now. / asking / Rhod / or listener / Have you ever had a saveloy? / can you put a clock on this? / Clock on it? / you know, like ... / so I c__ put pressure on the question / 緊張感を出すために / production team in Cardiff just came in my ear / we haven't got one / I was just asking ... I was just asking Lucy to do it ... to do, to do it vocally. Uh ... Have I ever had a saveloy? ... / ... from a fish & shop / yes, Rhod / Have you? / Yeah. / Is that it? / それだけ？ / Feature 2 ...
