• 0:33Speaker 01

  Uh, Taylor Hansen? Sure, I'll try one. Mmm.

• 0:39Speaker 03

  Hey, let's get back to work, please.

• 0:40Speaker 01

  But Taylor Hansen's making my day way better with these new soft and swirly King's Hawaiian Cinnamon Bites.

• 0:45Speaker 03

  Taylor Hansen? Nice.

• 0:47Speaker 02

  Try one.

• 0:48Speaker 03

  Mmm.

• 0:52Speaker 04

  King's Hawaiian Cinnamon Bites. There's nothing like it.

• 1:08Declan Donnelly?

  Hello, everybody.

• 1:09Ant McPartlin?

  Hi, everyone.

• 1:10Declan Donnelly?

  Good morning, good evening. Welcome back to The Hangout, where another hanging out with him and me. I see you brought the discussion jar back in.

• 1:16Ant McPartlin?

  I have, yes. It was a hit last time, wasn't it? We had lots of comments, lots of people talking about it. They like us talking about conspiracy theories. They like our point of view on things.

• 1:26Declan Donnelly?

  Do they, or is that just a conspiracy theory?

• 1:28Ant McPartlin?

  No, they do. They do, they do. They actually do.

• 1:30Declan Donnelly?

  Okay, cool.

• 1:30Ant McPartlin?

  You okay, though?

• 1:31Declan Donnelly?

  Yeah, good.

• 1:32Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah?

• 1:33Declan Donnelly?

  I'm excited about this.

• 1:34Ant McPartlin?

  Good.

• 1:34Declan Donnelly?

  I enjoyed it last time.

• 1:35Ant McPartlin?

  I did, too.

• 1:36Declan Donnelly?

  Found out a lot of things I didn't know before. Hollow moons and all that malarkey.

• 1:40Ant McPartlin?

  So let's see if we can debunk a few more conspiracy theories or myths here and now. Shall I dive on in?

• 1:47Declan Donnelly?

  I think why do we should.

• 1:48Ant McPartlin?

  I think we should.

• 1:49Declan Donnelly?

  Why wait around?

• 1:49Ant McPartlin?

  Why waffle? You can wait till Thursday for waffle. This is, this is good quality discussion jar content, this is. I'm gonna go first. So I've got the jar. The first topic, the first subject, first thing to talk about is? It's a question.

• 2:07Declan Donnelly?

  What's the question?

• 2:08Ant McPartlin?

  Sent in by one of you lot. And the question is, does it matter how you stack a dishwasher?

• 2:17Ant McPartlin?

  Shall I go first?

• 2:18Declan Donnelly?

  If you like.

• 2:19Ant McPartlin?

  It doesn't matter.

• 2:19Declan Donnelly?

  It does matter.

• 2:21Ant McPartlin?

  It doesn't matter.

• 2:22Declan Donnelly?

  Of course it matters.

• 2:22Ant McPartlin?

  Why?

• 2:24Declan Donnelly?

  Because the dishwashers have been designed to be stacked a certain way. You can't just open the dishwasher, throw it in and then close the dishwasher.

• 2:29Ant McPartlin?

  Why?

• 2:30Declan Donnelly?

  Especially cutlery.

• 2:32Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah, but there's normally like a thing at the top for your cutlery. There's a, there are little, um, container-y bit at the bottom with the, with the handle that you put, you can.

• 2:40Declan Donnelly?

  Not keen on that.

• 2:41Ant McPartlin?

  Or the top drawer, the flat drawer, yeah.

• 2:43Declan Donnelly?

  Which is the one that I get most, most upset about.

• 2:47Ant McPartlin?

  So if I was round your house and I went, I'll clean up deck and I got the cutlery.

• 2:52Declan Donnelly?

  First of all, I go, no, no, no, no, that's fine. I'll do it.

• 2:55Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah.

• 2:55Declan Donnelly?

  And then you go, no, I'll do it. I go, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I'll really do it.

• 2:58Ant McPartlin?

  But I insist on doing it.

• 3:00Declan Donnelly?

  Yeah.

• 3:00Ant McPartlin?

  I open the top slidey cutlery drawer bit in your dishwasher. And I throw it all in the middle and shut the top.

• 3:06Declan Donnelly?

  No.

• 3:06Ant McPartlin?

  What happens?

• 3:07Declan Donnelly?

  Even if you were being really organised and you put the knife and fork next to each other.

• 3:11Ant McPartlin?

  I wouldn't do that.

• 3:12Declan Donnelly?

  It's still wrong.

• 3:13Ant McPartlin?

  What? How's that wrong?

• 3:14Declan Donnelly?

  It's wrong.

• 3:14Ant McPartlin?

  How? What's right then?

• 3:16Declan Donnelly?

  You pull it out, all the knives go there, all the forks go there and the spoons go at that end.

• 3:21Ant McPartlin?

  Oh my gosh.

• 3:22Declan Donnelly?

  When you do it, you pull the thing out, you go knife, fork in the middle, spoon over there. So when the next person comes along, you go knife, fork, spoon. Because when you're putting the things back, when, when the dishwasher's done and you put them back in the drawer, you can just collect all the knives, all the forks, all the spoons, bang, bang, bang. Quickly done.

• 3:39Ant McPartlin?

  Did you just do that on a podcast? Oh my God, somebody made that a meme. Please, and then we just keep seeing it and then he'll be embarrassed and realise he shouldn't have done it.

• 3:49Declan Donnelly?

  No, because it'll take me back to this moment where I was going, I was teaching the nation how to load and unload the dishwasher.

• 3:54Ant McPartlin?

  You see, my wife's exactly the same as you.

• 3:56Declan Donnelly?

  Yeah.

• 3:57Ant McPartlin?

  And I knew she should have married you instead of me. She, she is very anal when it comes to the dishwasher and likes the knives next to each other, the forks next to each other, the spoons next to each other.

• 4:08Declan Donnelly?

  Not anal.

• 4:09Ant McPartlin?

  For that very reason. What is it then? Just organised?

• 4:11Declan Donnelly?

  Just, it's just.

• 4:12Ant McPartlin?

  Correct.

• 4:13Declan Donnelly?

  Just correct. It's just how you should live.

• 4:16Ant McPartlin?

  I, on the other hand, don't think there's a correct way to stack a dishwasher.

• 4:20Declan Donnelly?

  Well, there is.

• 4:20Ant McPartlin?

  And you just whack it all in and put your little capsule in.

• 4:25Declan Donnelly?

  No.

• 4:25Ant McPartlin?

  Shut the door, turn it on, bang, sit down.

• 4:28Declan Donnelly?

  Hang on, you need to rephrase that.

• 4:29Ant McPartlin?

  What?

• 4:30Declan Donnelly?

  You said, I don't think there's a correct way to load a dishwasher. You know there is a correct way to load a dishwasher. You just don't care that there is a correct way.

• 4:39Ant McPartlin?

  All right.

• 4:39Declan Donnelly?

  Is that not?

• 4:40Ant McPartlin?

  I don't care. Get on with more important things that make you happy.

• 4:44Declan Donnelly?

  The amount of times.

• 4:45Ant McPartlin?

  Let's go and eat chocolate, yeah. Let's go play outside, yeah.

• 4:50Declan Donnelly?

  Meanwhile, people like me keep this world turning.

• 4:53Ant McPartlin?

  What? Because you stacked the dishwasher, right?

• 4:55Declan Donnelly?

  Yes.

• 4:56Ant McPartlin?

  Wow.

• 4:57Declan Donnelly?

  The amount of times I open the dishwasher in my.

• 4:58Ant McPartlin?

  How pompous.

• 5:03Ant McPartlin?

  How pompous.

• 5:05Declan Donnelly?

  The amount of times I open the dishwasher at my house, pull out the drawers and go, it drives me mad. And I say that to myself.

• 5:13Ant McPartlin?

  You silly goose, which silly goose did this?

• 5:16Declan Donnelly?

  I'd literally do that. I'd pull out and go, drives me mad. All the little plates.

• 5:20Ant McPartlin?

  Loud enough for the rest of the household to hear.

• 5:22Declan Donnelly?

  Yeah, passive aggressive.

• 5:22Ant McPartlin?

  Passive aggressive, yeah, of course.

• 5:23Declan Donnelly?

  All the small plates need to be stacked together.

• 5:25Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah.

• 5:25Declan Donnelly?

  The big plates stacked together. Balls need to be, you know, cereal balls need to be all together. Come on, guys. You know that it's the right thing. You're thinking of future you. Exactly. I'm doing my future self a favor.

• 5:38Ant McPartlin?

  Future you. Yeah, you're right.

• 5:40Declan Donnelly?

  Do you ever do that?

• 5:41Ant McPartlin?

  I don't think of future me.

• 5:42Declan Donnelly?

  Do you? Oh, I do all the time.

• 5:43Ant McPartlin?

  Me right here, right now, having fun. Woo. Woo.

• 5:50Declan Donnelly?

  Do you ever do that thing where you're out and about, like, and you go, oh, I've got a runny nose, and you put your hand, you put it and go, well done, past me, I've got a hand key. Do you ever do that?

• 5:59Ant McPartlin?

  Never.

• 6:00Declan Donnelly?

  Do you not?

• 6:01Ant McPartlin?

  Ever, ever.

• 6:02Declan Donnelly?

  I do it all the time. We agree to disagree. We're not debunking that one.

• 6:06Ant McPartlin?

  We're not debunking that one.

• 6:07Declan Donnelly?

  We agree to disagree, even though you agree that I am right.

• 6:09Ant McPartlin?

  I never agreed that.

• 6:10Declan Donnelly?

  Okay, baby.

• 6:12Ant McPartlin?

  Why do you put them back in the thing every time? Just leave them loose because this is wasting time. But don't put them in the sleeve every time.

• 6:21Ant McPartlin?

  It slows things down. I could be doing this. I could be doing this.

• 6:26Declan Donnelly?

  And just then I went, oh, past me, you should have left them out.

• 6:31Declan Donnelly?

  Abby asks.

• 6:32Ant McPartlin?

  Hi Abby.

• 6:33Declan Donnelly?

  Hi Tony and Deck.

• 6:34Ant McPartlin?

  Oh, shut up Abby.

• 6:35Declan Donnelly?

  What's your opinion on Bigfoot? Last year, my hyper fixation was watching Bigfoot evidence videos and listening to Bigfoot podcasts.

• 6:44Ant McPartlin?

  Everyone's got a podcast now, even Bigfoot.

• 6:48Declan Donnelly?

  They're all jumping on board. We thought we were the last, but Bigfoot's still there. If you really look into it, it's so interesting. I 100% believe the Bigfoot species is living in the mountains of North America. I have to say, I don't think I have seen enough.

• 7:05Ant McPartlin?

  Don't put them back in there.

• 7:06Declan Donnelly?

  What?

• 7:06Ant McPartlin?

  Don't put them back in there. Put them loose on the side.

• 7:08Declan Donnelly?

  What, my glasses?

• 7:09Ant McPartlin?

  Because you'll need them again for the next one.

• 7:10Declan Donnelly?

  Don't put the glasses in the sleeve.

• 7:11Ant McPartlin?

  No.

• 7:12Declan Donnelly?

  Okay. I haven't, um, encountered enough Bigfoot evidence.

• 7:16Ant McPartlin?

  Or Bigfoot.

• 7:17Declan Donnelly?

  Or, or definitely have the Bigfoot.

• 7:19Ant McPartlin?

  That would be the best evidence, seeing him. No, I agree. I haven't been down this wormhole. I would like to spend a bit more time down this rabbit hole, wormhole.

• 7:29Declan Donnelly?

  Because I would, I'd love to know the evidence because my immediate thought, my, my instinct, just off the top of my head, makes me think that if there was such thing as a Bigfoot, surely like satellites would have captured him by now, like seen him.

• 7:42Ant McPartlin?

  Right, yeah.

• 7:43Declan Donnelly?

  And is a species a Bigfoot? So more than one, I presume she's saying.

• 7:46Ant McPartlin?

  Well, I presume so. I mean, I've seen those images on the internet where you see like the big footprint and it's like that big.

• 7:54Declan Donnelly?

  That's a hoax, isn't it?

• 7:55Ant McPartlin?

  I don't know.

• 7:56Declan Donnelly?

  Isn't that somebody?

• 7:56Ant McPartlin?

  And there's always a picture of these, always that one picture of him walking like that.

• 7:59Declan Donnelly?

  Yeah.

• 8:00Ant McPartlin?

  Through the woods. Um, and that's always in books and stuff. And there's a little bit of grainy footage as well, I think. Um, but a lot of those have been debunked, but I don't necessarily, I think it's got to stem from something. There's got to be some kind of myth or legend or sighting where people have talked about Bigfoot giants, whatever it is, in North America, in like the Appalachian Mountains or something, which are very spooky. That's another one we should cover. The Appalachian Mountains, like spooky stuff happens there.

• 8:27Declan Donnelly?

  Does it?

• 8:27Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah. Oh my God, like really scary stuff. There's like rules. If you're walking through the Appalachian Mountains, someone calls your name, don't turn around. If you hear people talking.

• 8:37Declan Donnelly?

  Smash your face in. Call me a name from the Appalachian Mountains.

• 8:40Ant McPartlin?

  Not call your name, not call your name.

• 8:41Declan Donnelly?

  Call your name.

• 8:42Ant McPartlin?

  Deck a short. Like they wouldn't do that, they'd just say deck. But so there's something in that. So maybe, maybe the whole Bigfoot thing is connected to that. And so I think there's something in it. I'd like to know more. We should revisit this. We should do like a myths, legends special. Where we get more information and we look at images and we then we can say we agree or disagree.

• 9:04Declan Donnelly?

  Do you think this is a safe space for experts?

• 9:07Ant McPartlin?

  This.

• 9:08Declan Donnelly?

  Could we bring experts into the discussion jar?

• 9:10Ant McPartlin?

  Yes.

• 9:11Declan Donnelly?

  Okay, maybe.

• 9:11Ant McPartlin?

  I wouldn't be safe.

• 9:12Declan Donnelly?

  I don't know.

• 9:14Ant McPartlin?

  You're going to attack them.

• 9:16Declan Donnelly?

  I don't agree with them.

• 9:17Ant McPartlin?

  Smash your face in. Yeah, we should.

• 9:20Declan Donnelly?

  We should think about that.

• 9:20Ant McPartlin?

  We should bring some people in. Do you know who I'd love on this podcast?

• 9:23Declan Donnelly?

  Your mate.

• 9:23Ant McPartlin?

  Graham Hancock.

• 9:24Declan Donnelly?

  Yes.

• 9:24Ant McPartlin?

  Oh my God, I love that man. His theory is that there is an ancient civilization that happened before the great floods of, that is written about in most religions on earth. There's always a flood story in there. He reckons prior to the flood, there was an ancient civilization which built the pyramids, which kept knowledge that they passed down after the flood and after the great ice age and that we still carry today. But if it wasn't for them.

• 9:59Declan Donnelly?

  And they were much, much cleverer than we.

• 10:00Ant McPartlin?

  Much cleverer than us. And they, they, there's certain buildings that they built that we couldn't even still build today. There's like this stonework in Peru.

• 10:09Declan Donnelly?

  Let's not get started on the heaters and coils underneath the pyramid.

• 10:13Ant McPartlin?

  No, no, let's not get started on that. But we should get started on that somewhere along the line.

• 10:17Declan Donnelly?

  It's mind blowing. It's crazy times.

• 10:19Ant McPartlin?

  You see, we've only had two bits of paper. What interesting chat. This is much better than the waffle on the big chat, isn't it?

• 10:27Declan Donnelly?

  We've had dishwasher and pyramids so far.

• 10:30Ant McPartlin?

  And Bigfoot. Right, I'm going next. We don't really get to the bottom of much of your theories, but we still like talking about them. We need experts. Helen in Vancouver Islands.

• 10:41Declan Donnelly?

  Ooh.

• 10:42Ant McPartlin?

  Is writing with a pet hate. I didn't know this was just what the discussion job.

• 10:46Declan Donnelly?

  All up for discussion, anything at all.

• 10:47Ant McPartlin?

  It's up for discussion.

• 10:47Declan Donnelly?

  Anything at all we put in there.

• 10:49Ant McPartlin?

  Her pet hate, Helen's pet hate is people who say, look and listen.

• 10:54Declan Donnelly?

  Ah.

• 10:54Ant McPartlin?

  The start of making a point.

• 10:56Declan Donnelly?

  I hate that.

• 10:56Ant McPartlin?

  I'm already listening. I don't need to listen. It's just aggravating to hear that at the start of a sentence.

• 11:03Declan Donnelly?

  Helen, I am absolutely 100% with you. Listen, it is the worst thing. No.

• 11:09Ant McPartlin?

  Helen, look here, I, I disagree.

• 11:12Declan Donnelly?

  It's true. I find it really condescending.

• 11:15Ant McPartlin?

  Do you?

• 11:16Declan Donnelly?

  And quite patronizing.

• 11:16Ant McPartlin?

  Do you?

• 11:17Declan Donnelly?

  Yeah. People go, listen.

• 11:19Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah, yeah, like that, the way you've just done it then.

• 11:21Declan Donnelly?

  Was that quite condescending?

• 11:22Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah, really.

• 11:23Declan Donnelly?

  I think that's how I do it normally. I used to listen to a podcast and I had to stop listening to it because one of the presenters kept going, listen.

• 11:30Ant McPartlin?

  Never.

• 11:31Declan Donnelly?

  Yeah.

• 11:31Ant McPartlin?

  They wound you up.

• 11:32Declan Donnelly?

  It wound me up so much, I stopped listening to the podcast. One of the podcasters go, listen. I'm already listening. You're already making us. Don't need to tell me to listen.

• 11:43Ant McPartlin?

  She goes like, say, people who say, with all due respect, I always hear, i.e. none, when someone says that, because they really don't mean to give you any respect. They should just use respect guys instead. Way more respect given. Yeah, I agree.

• 11:58Declan Donnelly?

  Helen.

• 11:58Ant McPartlin?

  With all due respect, you know, you know, there's going to be some kind of put down on the back of that, don't you?

• 12:03Declan Donnelly?

  Yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 12:04Ant McPartlin?

  With all due respect, but you're wrong. With all due respect, shut up.

• 12:07Declan Donnelly?

  Please don't start with, listen, or look.

• 12:10Ant McPartlin?

  Look.

• 12:11Declan Donnelly?

  Just get these up.

• 12:12Ant McPartlin?

  There you go. They were loosely on the desk. Well done.

• 12:15Declan Donnelly?

  Ian asks, what's your thoughts on whether Elvis or Michael Jackson are alive or dead? Discuss. Thanks, Ian.

• 12:22Ant McPartlin?

  Thanks, Ian.

• 12:22Declan Donnelly?

  Very interesting one.

• 12:23Ant McPartlin?

  Do you think Elvis is alive?

• 12:25Declan Donnelly?

  Probably, yeah.

• 12:26Ant McPartlin?

  Probably.

• 12:28Ant McPartlin?

  Yes and no discussion job.

• 12:30Declan Donnelly?

  Yeah, I do. I do think that. I do think he is.

• 12:32Ant McPartlin?

  You do. And Michael Jackson?

• 12:34Declan Donnelly?

  Not sure about Michael Jackson, but I've always thought the Elvis thing, there was something in it.

• 12:38Ant McPartlin?

  I did.

• 12:38Declan Donnelly?

  There's too many people saying it.

• 12:40Ant McPartlin?

  And also the fact that his manager at the time, Colonel Parker, is it?

• 12:43Declan Donnelly?

  Colonel Tom, yeah.

• 12:44Ant McPartlin?

  Colonel Tom Parker, he was so controlling and wouldn't let him travel outside of the US. If you watch the Elvis movie, it's really sad, isn't it? You know, when he was addicted to drugs near the end and he was playing Vegas and he was just kind of on that quite sad loop at the end of his life, when he could have travelled and seen the world. But apparently his contract was so tight that he was so controlling, he wouldn't let him do a lot of it. So I suppose that's one way to get out.

• 13:10Declan Donnelly?

  Break your contract.

• 13:11Ant McPartlin?

  Get out, break your contract, is just fake your own death. You know, we should start though, we should start a room about where like, not the real Adam Deck.

• 13:18Declan Donnelly?

  That we've been replaced?

• 13:19Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah.

• 13:19Declan Donnelly?

  By two actors, like the Paul McCartney one?

• 13:21Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah. Yeah, we should. So we got up to Alien Autopsy, we did that movie.

• 13:27Declan Donnelly?

  And then the American military?

• 13:29Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah, got rid of us.

• 13:30Declan Donnelly?

  Got rid of us because we'd done the autopsy movie.

• 13:32Ant McPartlin?

  And we were never allowed to be in another movie again. We just never were in another movie.

• 13:38Declan Donnelly?

  That was nothing to do with the American military.

• 13:42Declan Donnelly?

  But maybe the American military got rid of us because of Alien Autopsy. But we were replaced.

• 13:50Ant McPartlin?

  Let's just see if this comes back around. So I'll just, I'll just come out and say it, right? I can take now on the real Adam Deck. Adam Deck, right, were Adam Deck and they met and they're on Better Grove and then they done Saturday mornings. Then they started SMTV Live and it was about the time, just after Alien Autopsy, where they were replaced by two people who looked like them.

• 14:15Declan Donnelly?

  I'm actually an actor from Maidstone in Kent.

• 14:18Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah, and I'm actually a girl from Derry in Ireland. Right, let's just see how long that takes to come back, yeah? Pop it in the jar, it'll be weeks tight.

• 14:28Ant McPartlin?

  Okay.

• 14:28Declan Donnelly?

  Shall I have another one?

• 14:29Ant McPartlin?

  Let's have another one. This is from Bob.

• 14:31Declan Donnelly?

  Hello, Bob.

• 14:32Ant McPartlin?

  Bob asks, what's your thoughts on the Mandela Effect? Now, do you know, I was telling you about this, wasn't I?

• 14:36Declan Donnelly?

  Yes, I know about this.

• 14:37Ant McPartlin?

  So if you don't know what the Mandela Effect is, the Mandela Effect is a phenomenon where a large group of people have a collective shared but false memory of an event or a detail or a cultural icon.

• 14:50Declan Donnelly?

  This is definitely a thing.

• 14:52Ant McPartlin?

  Caused by Fiona Broom, yeah, it is a thing. In 2009, it stems from the widespread incorrect belief that Nelson Mandela died in prison during the 1980s, which of course he didn't. It highlights how memory can be inaccurate and suggestible.

• 15:05Declan Donnelly?

  Yes.

• 15:06Ant McPartlin?

  I'm going to give you a good example of this, because I've been done this rather well.

• 15:10Declan Donnelly?

  Go on.

• 15:10Ant McPartlin?

  In Star Wars, when Darth Vader, I know you've only watched the first one.

• 15:15Declan Donnelly?

  Yeah, but I know that, I know like a lot of the big moments.

• 15:18Ant McPartlin?

  So Darth Vader says to-

• 15:20Declan Donnelly?

  The big reveal?

• 15:21Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah.

• 15:21Declan Donnelly?

  To Luke Skywalker, he says-

• 15:26Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah.

• 15:26Declan Donnelly?

  Good so far?

• 15:27Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah, very good. He says, "Look, I am your father." Is what we all remember it as.

• 15:34Declan Donnelly?

  Yeah, that's what he says, I've seen it, seen the clip.

• 15:35Ant McPartlin?

  He actually says, "No, I am your father."

• 15:39Declan Donnelly?

  Oh.

• 15:40Ant McPartlin?

  So, but we all think that he said that. "Look, I'm your father."

• 15:44Declan Donnelly?

  Did he go, "Look, I'm your father"?

• 15:49Ant McPartlin?

  Oh yeah, maybe it was that.

• 15:50Declan Donnelly?

  Maybe it was that. Listen, look, listen.

• 15:52Ant McPartlin?

  But that's a shared memory that we all have of something that was said in a certain way, but actually it's untrue. When we were growing up, remember, and I've seen this one a lot, do you remember Fruit of the Loom t-shirts?

• 16:04Declan Donnelly?

  Yeah, with the fruit?

• 16:05Ant McPartlin?

  What, but they're fruit?

• 16:06Declan Donnelly?

  The fruit and a, and a basket, like a basket behind it.

• 16:09Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah, cornucopia, is what they're called.

• 16:11Declan Donnelly?

  Okay.

• 16:11Ant McPartlin?

  There's no cornucopia.

• 16:13Declan Donnelly?

  Shut up.

• 16:13Ant McPartlin?

  It's just fruit.

• 16:15Declan Donnelly?

  Shut your face. Seriously?

• 16:17Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah.

• 16:18Declan Donnelly?

  No.

• 16:18Ant McPartlin?

  But I remember it coming out of a basket.

• 16:20Declan Donnelly?

  Yeah.

• 16:21Ant McPartlin?

  But apparently it's just the fruit, Fruit of the Loom.

• 16:24Declan Donnelly?

  How did we all-

• 16:25Ant McPartlin?

  Crazy! That's the Mandela Effect.

• 16:29Declan Donnelly?

  I've got one for you.

• 16:29Ant McPartlin?

  Go on.

• 16:30Declan Donnelly?

  Oliver Twist.

• 16:31Ant McPartlin?

  Yes.

• 16:31Declan Donnelly?

  He's just finished his lunch.

• 16:32Ant McPartlin?

  Yep.

• 16:33Declan Donnelly?

  And he goes up to the man for seconds and he says-

• 16:36Ant McPartlin?

  "Please, sir, can I have some more?"

• 16:39Declan Donnelly?

  He doesn't.

• 16:40Ant McPartlin?

  What does he say?

• 16:41Declan Donnelly?

  He says, "Please, sir, I want some more." He doesn't ask, "Can I have some more?", he says, "I want some more."

• 16:47Ant McPartlin?

  Oh my god, so anyway, so basically what, what this is, right, is- The, the theory is we're living in a separate timeline.

• 16:58Declan Donnelly?

  Oh, is that, is that, that's what the theory is?

• 17:00Ant McPartlin?

  Something, I, this is my theory. No, no, the theory online is it's a, we've, we've split it off into a separate timeline. What made us split it off into that timeline? I'll tell you when, when CERN happened.

• 17:13Declan Donnelly?

  Oh, the Hadron Collider?

• 17:14Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah, the Hadron Collider in Switzerland.

• 17:16Declan Donnelly?

  When they split the atom?

• 17:17Ant McPartlin?

  Hmm.

• 17:19Ant McPartlin?

  Think about it.

• 17:21Ant McPartlin?

  And get back to me, because I like them all in one.

• 17:25Ant McPartlin?

  Think about it and tell me more, because I need to know like an expert when I'm talking about it. Do you remember we met Brian Cox, Professor Brian Cox, at a TV award show? And I went over to him, I said, oh my God, I love, I love you, love what you do. And he went, I love you guys. There's a bit of a loving, you know, it was, it was a lovey-loving.

• 17:42Declan Donnelly?

  Why they call them lovies?

• 17:43Ant McPartlin?

  Showbiz loving. And we were talking to him and he said, do you remember? He would take us to CERN, to the Hadron, to the large Hadron Collider.

• 17:53Declan Donnelly?

  Did he say that?

• 17:54Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah. I said, I'll hold you to that. He went, please do, he said, I'll take you, I'll show you around.

• 18:00Declan Donnelly?

  Why did he do that?

• 18:01Ant McPartlin?

  Take us. Professor Brian Cox, if he can get access.

• 18:07Ant McPartlin?

  Maybe he couldn't get access. Maybe his credentials didn't, you know, weren't up to scratch.

• 18:11Declan Donnelly?

  His past has run out.

• 18:12Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah, his past has run out.

• 18:15Declan Donnelly?

  Oh my God, sorry guys, sorry guys.

• 18:17Ant McPartlin?

  I've been fighting on the deck and this is embarrassing now.

• 18:22Declan Donnelly?

  Has your past run out? Listen, my past never runs out.

• 18:26Ant McPartlin?

  This is my past. I'm Professor Brian Cox. Maybe he's the one I should have beef with. Hey! Brian Coxey, take us to the, take us to CERN, man, like you promised. That's just the much as I can give you. He doesn't deserve any more.

• 18:42Declan Donnelly?

  He might come through with it easily.

• 18:44Ant McPartlin?

  Look forward to that. I wonder if there's Mandela effect about us two.

• 18:49Declan Donnelly?

  About our career or?

• 18:50Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah, like, well, people remember us two, but it actually didn't happen. And we could clear it all.

• 18:53Declan Donnelly?

  Tell you what might be a Mandela effect for us. People stop me sometimes and say, oh, I've been watching you since Greenwich Hill.

• 18:59Ant McPartlin?

  Oh, yeah, yeah. That's just purely misinformed. Because they would just remember a show being on at ten plus five and one was Greenwich Hill. One was Better Groove. Yeah, they just got it wrong.

• 19:07Declan Donnelly?

  Yeah, let's know if there are any good Mandela effects that you know have encountered? Or if you've heard any about us, that would be quite interesting. Here's one. From anonymous, is popcorn and other noisy food appropriate for the cinema?

• 19:21Ant McPartlin?

  Ah, talking about.

• 19:23Declan Donnelly?

  Discuss.

• 19:24Ant McPartlin?

  Discuss.

• 19:25Declan Donnelly?

  Popcorn's alright, that's not too noisy.

• 19:27Ant McPartlin?

  Alright, yeah.

• 19:27Declan Donnelly?

  Just a little, little rustle when you put your fingers in.

• 19:30Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah, what would be noisy? Crisps, bags of crisps, that's too noisy.

• 19:34Declan Donnelly?

  Do you know what is not allowed?

• 19:35Ant McPartlin?

  Here we go, come on, man.

• 19:36Declan Donnelly?

  Boiled sweets.

• 19:37Ant McPartlin?

  Why?

• 19:38Declan Donnelly?

  Unwrapping boiled sweets in the, in the, in, in cellophane.

• 19:42Ant McPartlin?

  Okay.

• 19:42Declan Donnelly?

  Like chocolate limes.

• 19:43Ant McPartlin?

  I thought you meant you put.

• 19:45Declan Donnelly?

  No, chocolate limes in, in cellophane.

• 19:48Ant McPartlin?

  Chocolate, well, who's even eaten chocolate lime, have you?

• 19:51Declan Donnelly?

  I love a chocolate lime.

• 19:52Ant McPartlin?

  You're such a strange boy. You really are, man.

• 19:56Declan Donnelly?

  I love a chocolate lime.

• 19:57Ant McPartlin?

  A chocolate lime.

• 19:58Declan Donnelly?

  You got, oh, you got a nice bit of citrus and then.

• 20:00Ant McPartlin?

  And then a bit of chocolate.

• 20:01Declan Donnelly?

  Oh, chocolate in the middle. What a treat.

• 20:04Ant McPartlin?

  Popcorn is popcorn. It's just, it is what it is. You've just got, if you're going to go to the cinema, deal with it.

• 20:09Declan Donnelly?

  Yeah.

• 20:09Ant McPartlin?

  Do you know what I mean? You can't get annoyed about that. You can't.

• 20:12Declan Donnelly?

  Popcorn's alright. There are other things you, yeah, you can't.

• 20:15Ant McPartlin?

  A big bag of crisps?

• 20:16Declan Donnelly?

  Yeah.

• 20:16Ant McPartlin?

  You know, like a big bag of kettle crisps?

• 20:18Declan Donnelly?

  Yeah.

• 20:18Ant McPartlin?

  Which are horrible crisps to eat. Anyway, the best of times.

• 20:23Declan Donnelly?

  Do you like your kettle chip?

• 20:25Ant McPartlin?

  Well, they're too hard for me. Nash's.

• 20:26Declan Donnelly?

  Oh, are they?

• 20:27Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah. They've got crowns.

• 20:30Ant McPartlin?

  No one wants that, do they?

• 20:33Ant McPartlin?

  Do you like twiglet?

• 20:34Declan Donnelly?

  Not that bothered about a twiglet.

• 20:36Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah, they love them when you hate them, but mom.

• 20:39Declan Donnelly?

  I could take them or leave them.

• 20:40Ant McPartlin?

  Probably. I always think I like them. And I go, oh, twiglet. I hope, no. No. And then I wait a couple of seconds, like a goldfish, and go. Maybe the second one's going, no, no. But I always buy them at Christmas.

• 20:55Declan Donnelly?

  Yeah.

• 20:56Ant McPartlin?

  You know, the little cylinders of twiglets and mini cheddars.

• 20:58Declan Donnelly?

  Put them in a bowl.

• 20:59Ant McPartlin?

  Put them in a bowl.

• 21:00Declan Donnelly?

  Never get eaten.

• 21:00Ant McPartlin?

  They never get eaten. Well, they do by me every seven seconds. Maybe this one, no, no. Do you like the cinema?

• 21:08Declan Donnelly?

  I do like going, as long as everybody else is quiet.

• 21:10Ant McPartlin?

  They should do. You know, they, on Saturday mornings, they do like, um, toddler specials.

• 21:15Declan Donnelly?

  Yeah.

• 21:16Ant McPartlin?

  Where you can go with your toddler and so you can, it's true, you can go with like babies and it's, uh, yeah, and it's not as loud as it normally is, so you don't scare them. But you expect noise, you know, it's gonna, there's gonna be tears and there's.

• 21:26Declan Donnelly?

  There's gonna be crying.

• 21:27Ant McPartlin?

  There's gonna be crying, but that's it. You're out and it's something to do with the kids. But there should be silent nights.

• 21:32Declan Donnelly?

  Like, like the silent carriage on the train.

• 21:34Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah. If you're gonna go to that show in the movie.

• 21:36Declan Donnelly?

  You're not allowed food.

• 21:37Ant McPartlin?

  That's it.

• 21:38Declan Donnelly?

  You're not allowed to cough.

• 21:39Ant McPartlin?

  I agree. Yeah. No, no food, no nothing.

• 21:41Declan Donnelly?

  If you've got a slight cough, stay at home.

• 21:43Ant McPartlin?

  It, I reckon it's like a rule, three coughs, that's it, you're out.

• 21:46Declan Donnelly?

  Yeah.

• 21:47Ant McPartlin?

  Imagine the third cough, you're like, hmm.

• 21:56Declan Donnelly?

  Let it go. A fair game, fair game. I can't, I can't go. You know, I know the rules.

• 22:01Ant McPartlin?

  I've got a theory. Well, this is my thought on the, cause I love going to the cinema. Thanks for asking.

• 22:10Ant McPartlin?

  I love it. I love going to the cinema. I like, I like the, uh, it's a night out at the movies. I really like, I like it to be quiet. I don't like it to be too noisy. But less and less people are going because I think more people are getting used to second screen and everything. So even now, if people are used to watching a movie sat at home. And most movies come out really quickly on streamers or whatever. And they're used to just getting a bit distracted and going on your phone.

• 22:32Declan Donnelly?

  Yeah.

• 22:32Ant McPartlin?

  Now, doing that at the cinema, it's frowned upon. So people would rather wait a couple of days or a week and then watch at home.

• 22:38Declan Donnelly?

  Yeah.

• 22:39Ant McPartlin?

  That's why ticket sales are dwindling.

• 22:42Declan Donnelly?

  I went to the cinema a couple of weeks ago, took the kids, Saturday afternoon, me, the current Mrs. Donnelly and the two kids.

• 22:47Ant McPartlin?

  Yep.

• 22:47Declan Donnelly?

  Went to see The Goat. I had a little sleep and Mrs. Donnelly bought a trestle table on, online.

• 22:55Ant McPartlin?

  No, she didn't.

• 22:55Declan Donnelly?

  She did.

• 22:56Ant McPartlin?

  So you're allowed in that one to second screen because you anticipate it's gonna be loud because the kids are here.

• 23:01Declan Donnelly?

  We were sat in the back row.

• 23:02Ant McPartlin?

  Uh huh.

• 23:02Declan Donnelly?

  So there's nobody behind us. So I had a little sleep, the kids were watching the film and she got her phone out and, um, bought a trestle table while I was having a sleep. And went, I woke up, she went, I've bought a trestle table. You have to go and pick it up from Argos after the film.

• 23:18Ant McPartlin?

  That was quick.

• 23:19Declan Donnelly?

  It was really quick. I was ready in Argos.

• 23:20Ant McPartlin?

  You should have said, I've got a spell. I'm literally gonna get rid of.

• 23:24Declan Donnelly?

  No, if I'd known that.

• 23:25Ant McPartlin?

  You could have had mine. One last one. Come on, it's you.

• 23:28Declan Donnelly?

  Is it me?

• 23:28Ant McPartlin?

  One last one.

• 23:30Declan Donnelly?

  Let's get this one. Oh God, who, who keeps doing that?

• 23:33Ant McPartlin?

  Oh.

• 23:35Ant McPartlin?

  Every time you do that, that's what I'm doing.

• 23:38Declan Donnelly?

  Okay, last one for today then. The 2012 end of the world actually happened theory. Remember the Mayan calendar scare in 2012?

• 23:46Ant McPartlin?

  I do.

• 23:46Declan Donnelly?

  This theory suggests the world did end, or at least we shifted into a different timeline. Since 2012, many people feel time has sped up and things have generally become more surreal or glitchy. Is the world over?

• 24:01Ant McPartlin?

  No.

• 24:01Declan Donnelly?

  Okay, join us next.

• 24:04Ant McPartlin?

  But there's something to do with the Mayan calendar, though, that they didn't necessarily follow the same calendar as we do.

• 24:10Declan Donnelly?

  Yeah.

• 24:10Ant McPartlin?

  So are we even at where they think was the end of the world? Or is it just the end of a certain cycle and then a new cycle starts again? Because that open, if talk about calendars, you can talk about for ages, because actually, apparently, there should be 13 months in the year.

• 24:29Declan Donnelly?

  Yeah.

• 24:30Ant McPartlin?

  Rather than 12 months of the year, because there is 13 constellations that we can see. And there is, well, there's 12 apostles, but there should be 13 if you count Mary Magdalene. Like, there's, there's been slight altering of history to get rid of 13 and see 13 as unlucky. When actually, 13 is all around us and we should embrace it more rather than seeing it as unlucky. But somebody, somewhere, I don't know, the Illuminati probably, tries to suppress the word.

• 25:00Declan Donnelly?

  There we go.

• 25:01Ant McPartlin?

  Tries to suppress the number 13 for underhand reasons.

• 25:06Declan Donnelly?

  Because you, you, you see.

• 25:07Ant McPartlin?

  Populistas.

• 25:08Declan Donnelly?

  You see it nowadays, don't you, that like, it doesn't really snow in winter anymore, does it?

• 25:12Ant McPartlin?

  Nah.

• 25:12Declan Donnelly?

  But sometimes it snows. You're more likely to get snow in March or April than you are at Christmas.

• 25:17Ant McPartlin?

  I heard that.

• 25:18Declan Donnelly?

  Yeah. So, like, are we just out of whack a bit with the weather system?

• 25:22Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah, yeah, I think we probably are.

• 25:24Declan Donnelly?

  Doesn't quite make sense, does it?

• 25:25Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah. And it doesn't make sense that some day, some months are shorter than other months. We should have the exact same days in each month for 13 months, rather than some short months and some long months.

• 25:40Declan Donnelly?

  Just have another month?

• 25:41Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah, just put another month on.

• 25:42Declan Donnelly?

  Let's just do that.

• 25:43Ant McPartlin?

  13 months.

• 25:44Declan Donnelly?

  Shall we just do it? Where would you put it? In the middle of the year or at the end of the year?

• 25:47Ant McPartlin?

  Oh, in the middle of the year. You want more sun, don't you?

• 25:49Declan Donnelly?

  More, more summer.

• 25:50Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah, yeah, yeah, don't you think?

• 25:51Declan Donnelly?

  I think that's what we've got, is that what we've got them for? Oh my god, there's still stuff in the discussion jar to discuss. Got any other topics you want us to put in the discussion jar?

• 25:57Ant McPartlin?

  Or talking points, anything, anything you want, thoughts on.

• 26:00Declan Donnelly?

  And any, any of your viewpoints as well, get them into us, hanging out at beltabox.com, we'll stick them in the discussion jar and we'll come back to this in a few weeks.

• 26:08Ant McPartlin?

  Yeah. Anyway, thanks for watching, see you next time. See you on Thursday for the men pod.

• 26:13Declan Donnelly?

  Respect, guys.

• 26:14Ant McPartlin?

  Respect, guys.

• 26:15Declan Donnelly?

  See you later. Bye. And now I need them in and they're not in.

• 26:18Ant McPartlin?

  No, you're all out of whack. Come on, just do this step. Do it once, do it once, do it once.

• 26:22Declan Donnelly?

  I don't like that.

• 26:24Ant McPartlin?

  Goodbye.

  Now, more than ever, we need someone on our side. But Rob Whitman? Whitman's votes drove up costs, cut Medicaid, and risked 350,000 Virginians' health care to pay for tax breaks for himself and his donors. He's not on our side. Shannon Taylor will fight corruption, cut taxes, and bring down costs. This November, vote for Shannon Taylor. She's for us. Paid for by HMP, the HouseMajorityPact.com.
