Hey Mandy,
I havenโt watched much of Joeโs standup, donโt remember him in a sling - canโt have seen it!
Hereโs the obligatory, feel free to skip ๐
3:20 Sally: โIโve brought in a papier mache catโ Did you tune in to his dialled up Birmingham accent there?
5:35 A petit filous is just a brand of yoghurt for children
5:38 Amanda Holden - one of the current Britainโs Got Talent judges
7:35 Mandy: โCanโt legally say the name of a little artisan shop, but he can drop chain names, how does that work? What the hell are the lawsโฆโ Maybe itโs just because Starbucks couldnโt give a monkeys what Joe Lycett says about them, but with his Birmingham sway, he could sink the artisan coffee shop business when he said heโs boycotting them, then they might come after him! He can say what he likes at the end of the day. He has a show called โJoe Lycettโs Got Your Backโ where he explains and resolves consumer issues viewers have raised. I imagine heโs had to deal with a few disgruntled companies, so has had plenty of legal advice about where to draw the line, and the cost-benefit tradeoffs of stepping over it ๐คทโโ๏ธ ๐
Iโve only broken bones on one occasion in my life too! Hmm, knowing you, Iโd skip to the TLDR if youโd rather not know the grizzly detailsโฆ I was playing basketball in middle school, maybe 13-14 years old, and I was fighting for control of the ball, it was practically mine, as I had both arms firmly wrapped around it, and was trying to shake his hands off, when he caught his arm between the ball and my own arms bear hugging it, and with one final shake, his wedged lower arm got levered against the ball which broke both bones in his lower arm. Iโll never forget the image, it created an extra joint ๐ฅด I had no repercussions, because well, it was just an unfortunate circumstance, it wasnโt a foul play in particular.
TLDR: I broke someone else's arm playing basketball. I was mortified, was speechless for several minutes, well into the rest of the day, and earned the nickname arm-breaker Morgan off the gym teacher for the next few years.
Let me give myself a round of applause for that ๐ ๐ ๐ I was only a child, after all.
Ok, Iโll try skydiving once, to see if itโs for me ๐
Have a great rest of your day
