• 1:29Speaker 03

  Okay, this is exciting, isn't it?

• 1:31Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 1:32Speaker 03

  Because we're currently...

• 1:33Speaker 04

  In the past.

• 1:35Speaker 03

  No, no, we're in the past.

• 1:37Speaker 04

  But our future selves are in the future. Hello, future!

• 1:43Speaker 03

  Why do people do this?

• 1:44Speaker 04

  Hawaii, future!

• 1:46Speaker 03

  Why is it like, why do they assume people in the future and thingy have to echo?

• 1:50Speaker 04

  I don't know.

• 1:52Speaker 03

  The future, future, future.

• 1:54Speaker 04

  Future me!

• 1:55Speaker 03

  The past, the past.

• 1:56Speaker 04

  Is it all gonna be okay? Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay?

• 2:01Speaker 03

  So we're technically...

• 2:02Speaker 04

  Does my dick grow?

• 2:05Speaker 04

  In the future?

• 2:06Speaker 03

  It's not that, it's a couple of weeks. Right, we've been prepping, haven't we?

• 2:10Speaker 04

  We have been prepping for the tour. Oh my God, there's still some dates as well at this point which you could come to. There were some dates that have happened in the past.

• 2:17Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 2:18Speaker 04

  In the past of the past. So, I mean, in the, in the not so future past, so you can't go to those.

• 2:23Speaker 03

  Right, so we were doing that and we, it means we haven't had time to get a guest in.

• 2:27Speaker 04

  No, no, no, you can understand why, we're busy. But what do we have?

• 2:31Speaker 03

  We have something special, don't we?

• 2:33Speaker 04

  Yeah, something very special.

• 2:34Speaker 03

  We've got our long awaited running race.

• 2:38Speaker 04

  If people are, if people are day ones, they'll know that on day 60, we had the idea for a running race. And, well, sorry, we didn't have the idea, someone said who would win in a running race between you and I.

• 2:51Speaker 03

  Which was ludicrous that someone actually had to ask.

• 2:54Speaker 04

  Well, they thought, I don't think it's ludicrous. This is about a skinny, unlikely hero versus a big, favoured-ted athlete.

• 3:05Speaker 03

  Didn't like the way you paused on the fur.

• 3:08Speaker 04

  Favourited.

• 3:08Speaker 03

  You went big, favoured-ted.

• 3:11Speaker 04

  Athlete.

• 3:12Speaker 03

  Former.

• 3:13Speaker 04

  Yes. Will springy, skinny legs triumph over big tree trunks? We'll find out.

• 3:21Speaker 03

  Roll the tape.

• 3:22Speaker 04

  We'd roll the tape, we did the race.

• 3:53Speaker 03

  What are we doing, Jake?

• 3:54Speaker 04

  We're doing the, we say hotly anticipated, I think about four people in the comments said they wanted to see it, but I'll do anything for affirmation. We're doing the hotly anticipated running race between you and me.

• 4:05Speaker 03

  You've been putting it out for quite some time, why?

• 4:07Speaker 04

  I don't want you standing there all sort of, hello, hello, I'm the Mr, I'm the Mr. Running Man. Hello, I'm the Mr Athlete with my little hello. That's such a pose of sort of smug arrogance, that. Do you know that? Do you know that? Yeah, exactly.

• 4:19Speaker 03

  What are you doing?

• 4:19Speaker 04

  Psyching you out, mate.

• 4:20Speaker 03

  You're adamant, in fact, quote, unquote, I would absolutely dominate you in a running race, unquote, bracket, quote.

• 4:27Speaker 04

  I just think that whilst obviously your legs are the size of my entire body, it's basically whether we think that amount of muscle outweighs, quite literally, the lack of weight that I'm carrying compared to obviously all this, all what you've got to carry.

• 4:42Speaker 03

  So it's fat versus thin?

• 4:44Speaker 04

  Not fat. Not fat.

• 4:46Speaker 03

  Write in the comments who you think is gonna win, okay?

• 4:50Speaker 04

  What, before they watch the rest of the video?

• 4:51Speaker 03

  Don't know what that means.

• 4:52Speaker 04

  Yes, engagement, isn't it? That's the name of the game these days. Content is king. That's why we're doing this.

• 4:58Speaker 03

  I need a wee.

• 5:00Speaker 04

  I need your career.

• 5:12Speaker 04

  For the last however many months of my goddamn life, you've pushed me into a corner, physically in the cuck chair at the corner of the office, but metaphorically as well in some of the darkest corners of my mind, making me feel like this big compared to you. And I know physically that is actually quite true because you are massive. This is my time to show you sometimes the small nimble guy can come up on top. And I know I'm going to be truss talking you, but I'm getting emotional about the idea of coming up on top and it's getting too much for me right now. This is it.

• 5:49Speaker 03

  Oh, Jakey Snakey.

• 5:52Speaker 03

  It is time to put you back in your cuck chair where you belong. You're getting it from every angle, backwards, forwards, up and down. I'm the big spoon, you're the little spoon. Bring it on, baby.

• 6:35Speaker 04

  Who won? Who won? Who was it? Who, who won?

• 6:42Speaker 04

  Honestly, closer than I thought. He's a professional athlete. That is closer than I thought.

• 6:47Speaker 03

  Former.

• 6:48Speaker 04

  Oh, wow. It's a lot dizzier out here than normal. Wow. How are you feeling?

• 6:55Speaker 03

  Wasn't even close, was it?

• 6:56Speaker 04

  What do you mean? Yeah, it was, it was close.

• 6:58Speaker 03

  Mate.

• 6:59Speaker 04

  What?

• 7:00Speaker 03

  I was giggling with 20 to go, like this, where is he?

• 7:04Speaker 04

  No, are you joking?

• 7:04Speaker 03

  I was feeling all my like wobbles going.

• 7:07Speaker 04

  Yeah, all right, obviously he won, I think we're all aware of that. But it was considering how big he is and how much sport he's done, I think that was quite good. Does anyone agree?

• 7:18Speaker 04

  Does anyone agree? Yeah. Very well done, best man won. You did, you're very good. Wow, you can move, bro.

• 7:27Speaker 03

  I think I need to lie down. I think I need to move on that.

• 7:29Speaker 04

  My groin's hurt. Yeah. Oh, this bit hurts here, actually. What's this, what's this bit called? Really hurts.

• 7:36Speaker 03

  It's hard to tell you because it just looks like bone. You're like, you're the same as the skeleton in the office, but with skin on.

• 7:43Speaker 04

  Yeah, that's fair. That's fair. I might get into sport.

• 7:48Speaker 03

  Genuine. I can't tell you how nervous I was. Prior to that, I had way more to lose.

• 7:55Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 7:55Speaker 03

  And then I look at you and I was like, it actually might be really quick. After about 20 yards, I was like, fair enough, so thank you again.

• 8:03Speaker 04

  That is a man who's done a lot of post-match interviews. He walked away and was like, do you know what? I should give him a proper one. Yeah, so basically nerves early doors weighing into it, although, you know, I had a lot more to lose. He's a weaker team, but he's a strong team as well and yeah, best man won at the end. Cheers, thank you.

• 8:20Speaker 03

  You're more of a distance type runner, aren't you?

• 8:22Speaker 04

  All right, let's do, let's do a 10K. How long will that take to plot out, cameras wise? We're ready for you.

• 8:37Speaker 03

  Right, so there you have it. I was right all along. Don't say I didn't warn you, buddy.

• 8:43Speaker 04

  You put it all into it then, didn't you? Still sweating from it. Still sweating from it, still panting. Yeah, you were right. That was, I, I gave it the big talk and I said, oh, maybe sort of like, you know, the skinny, springy legs might be able to be quicker and whatever. But I, deep down, I'd obviously knew, you're a professional athlete. Obviously you were gonna win. What I stand by though, is that I, I actually think it should have, you're a professional athlete, you should have beaten me by a lot, lot, lot, lot, big margin.

• 9:13Speaker 03

  Mate, I, that was big enough.

• 9:14Speaker 04

  A much bigger margin.

• 9:15Speaker 03

  I was cruising. I was cruising.

• 9:19Speaker 04

  Were you?

• 9:19Speaker 03

  Yeah. That was my cruise mode.

• 9:22Speaker 04

  That was cruise mode?

• 9:22Speaker 03

  That was Cruise Ramirez.

• 9:24Speaker 04

  Wow.

• 9:25Speaker 03

  That's just my cruise.

• 9:26Speaker 04

  You've got very powerful legs.

• 9:27Speaker 03

  Right.

• 9:27Speaker 04

  Can they, can they carry you over 10 kilometres though?

• 9:30Speaker 03

  Yeah, you did suggest this, didn't you?

• 9:32Speaker 04

  Do you think he can handle it?

• 9:32Speaker 03

  He's still keen.

• 9:34Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 9:35Speaker 03

  What, can we do a park run maybe together?

• 9:37Speaker 04

  Let's do that.

• 9:38Speaker 03

  That's 5K, isn't it?

• 9:39Speaker 04

  We don't need to be...

• 9:40Speaker 03

  How much is park run?

• 9:43Speaker 04

  5K.

• 9:44Speaker 03

  All right, can we start at 5K?

• 9:45Speaker 04

  How about we don't do it quite as sort of Eye of the Tiger and quite sort of Rocky Balboa, we do, we just do it as two mates trying to support each other.

• 9:52Speaker 03

  Seeing if we can get through it.

• 9:53Speaker 04

  Seeing if we can do 5K.

• 9:54Speaker 03

  Without stopping.

• 9:55Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 9:55Speaker 03

  Without like walking.

• 9:56Speaker 04

  Because we, because both of us are gonna struggle for different reasons. If anyone is listening anymore, if, if, if anyone is still listening, if their, if their local park run is particularly good, let us know. Because we want, we want to go to the one that's got the best like vibes, right?

• 10:11Speaker 03

  Or the least people. So what do we want? Do we want people to actually see us doing this? Because we could struggle.

• 10:18Speaker 04

  No, we just want to join in, don't we?

• 10:19Speaker 03

  Or do we want best vibes to get us through it?

• 10:22Speaker 04

  Well, give me, give us, give us a little, few bullet points about why your park run's the best one and then we'll come to one.

• 10:27Speaker 03

  Okay.

• 10:28Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 10:28Speaker 03

  Well, that's enough of that. We'll be back next week in this office.

• 10:34Speaker 04

  Yeah, but in the meantime, get some luck, I mean, are there tickets left for the tour? Maybe get them on resale, I don't know, but come and see us.

• 10:41Speaker 03

  Yeah, and follow us on Instagram at We'll See You Now Show and I guess it's the end of, so does future self say goodbye to past self? Who am I saying goodbye to?

• 10:55Speaker 04

• 10:57Speaker 03

  Goodbye.

  Goodbye.
