Bedroom Banter Episode 14 - Hate Mail, BO, Poop Blocking Apps & Brian Who?

This Week In My Bedroom...

I confessed a hygiene issue I suffered in ‘the stupidest thing I’ve done this week’.

In my defence right, when you fake tan you’re not supposed to put deodorant on straight after because it turns green... I just forgot to put it on altogether.

Don’t pretend like you’ve never done it, I didn’t smell that bad it was just a slightly funky smell ya know, like barely noticeable, not sweaty minger you end up sat next to on the bus.

It was nothing to worry about... honestly.

After I’d addressed this issue...

It was time for this week’s idiots of the world and they were some beauties I have to tell you, here’s a little hint into what it sounded like.

As usual here’s all the boring real stories should you want to read up on them.

Peter Andre’s latest gig?

http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showbiz/tv/4902363/peter-andre-to-host-60-minute-makeover.html

If you hate your cat:

Careful what you watch:

LOL LOL LOL ROFL...

http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showbiz/tv/x_factor/4900935/x-factor-christopher-maloney-to-give-away-single-for-free.html

For private twosies:

http://metro.co.uk/2013/04/24/are-you-embarrassed-by-your-toilet-noises-get-the-fake-shower-app-3664504/

Aye mate if you say so:

http://metro.co.uk/2013/04/23/erotic-novelist-chad-leslie-peters-seeks-female-companion-on-craigslist-for-affair-3663469/

Holy s**t there’s a tiger in the bathroom:

http://metro.co.uk/2013/04/23/woman-escaped-circus-tiger-bathroo-3662968/

Then I decided to share with you my latest video...

Which I featured as this week’s ‘Best Thing I’ve Heard’, but really it was just the best place to slot it into the podcast.

So JLS have spilt up this week, people are sad yeah, blah blah. Honestly I just wanted a video to make people laugh, try and be a bit light hearted about it ya know?

Then I got this comment...

I mean I don’t think at any point during the video I said that JLS ‘had no talent’. I actually quite like their music, it’s alright to listen to yeah. I was more ranting about the fact that they’re basically telling everyone that they’re splitting up just so they can make their last millions!

I mean seriously? What other reason do they have to tell their fans right before they release a greatest hits album and a final ‘farewell’ UK tour.

So you know... calm your passions die hard JLS fans, it’s only an opinion.

Did you know that they’d recalled all the JLS condoms though? Because they’ve split...

Then I got into in depth deep conversation...

About Brian’s, do you know a Brian? The only Brian I know is the dog from family guy, so when someone asked me if I knew Brian the other day, I decided to use it for this week’s Google VS My Brain... or Brian (see what I did there).

Yeah I’ve confused myself with that too, it makes more sense on the Podcast I promise.

Finally it was time for some tuneage...

I know I must say this every week, but this honestly is the best song I’ve ever featured on Bedroom Banter.

I have listened to it over and over and over and over and over and over and over again. It is totes A- MAZING!

Words cannot tell you how good it is now matter how hard I try so just have a listen and love it!

If you want to see more from these guys (you will not be disappointed) then head over to their Soundcloud page: https://soundcloud.com/eva-blaze/queen-of-a-pharoah-philip-7

That’s all from me today, have a fab week!

This is what I think to JLS splitting up...

...I have no idea why my face looks like that!!!

Cheeky Midweek 'Vlog' for you!

So I went shopping today, initially I was supposed to be buying a suit for my new fancy grown up job.

Yeah, this is what I bought instead.

Can't go anywhere me! X

Bedroom Banter Episode 13 - Baz and Mags, Live Eels, Old Blunty and Frozen Rabbits

This Week In My Bedroom...

I brought to you podcast number 13... God I really hate that number.

As I expressed in the podcast and probably will numerous times throughout this blog, I just don’t like it. Weirdly though, and this honestly was not done on purpose today’s podcast is 13 minutes and 5 seconds long. Creepy eh?

Moving on then...

The stupidest thing I’ve done today, is displayed in the video below:

Yeah so I read this story about a man who was caught on camera literally stealing a mobile phone, with chopsticks!

So I thought I’d have a go and well you’ve seen how that turned out.

Honestly I’m not lying, he stole a mobile with chopsticks check the story here:

http://metro.co.uk/2013/04/11/pickpocket-caught-stealing-womans-mobile-phone-using-chopsticks-3592749/

Because I’d made a fool of myself...

I always like to follow this with the idiots of the world and O to the M to the effing G, was there some idiots this week. I mean me attempting to pick up my phone with chopsticks looks like the most normal thing in the world to do compared to these dingalings. Here’s a hint of what came up in today’s ‘This Is The World You Live In’:

And if you really need to read up on the real stories (to be honest I’ve not really had to do much mocking this week) then here are the links to the real stories:

Stuff the best thing I’ve heard all week...

The best thing I’ve literally heard all year comes from Baz and Mags, a couple of neighbours who are aged 50 (Maggie) and 65 (Barry) and play regular pranks on each other. They’re not even your everyday miniature pranks either like making someone jump or throwing water bombs.

No this is hardcore shizzle between Baz and Mags like... it was properly stepped up a couple of days ago when Mags thought it would be funny to fill Baz’s garden with stuffed toy animals, (she’s crazy old Maggie).

BUT THEN BAZ WELL AND TRULY UPPED THE ANTI – HOW?

He only went and filled her garden with foam! He created a foam party in her front garden, it’s seriously amazing! Like total wow!

Best thing ever! Who wouldn’t want neighbours like Baz and Mags?

Things are going viral...

On a daily basis. *cough* still waiting on my YouTube debut to do it but you know... whatevs.

But this latest video is awesome!!!!!!!! <<< look how many exclamation marks I’ve used. It’s ridiculously stupid, probably annoying to people, but it’s viral for a reason. It’s hysterical.

Introducing, ‘How Animals Eat Their Food’. It doesn’t even contain animals!

One word... LOL.

I’m not weird with many things...

Pah! We all know that’s a lie, but one thing I am really weird with is the number 13. It’s just god damn freaky okay!

Now I know I’m not the only person who feels like this so I wanted to find out using today’s Google VS My Brain just exactly where this bizarre fear came from and well I thought I was nuts until I read these ten facts (according to Google) why we don’t, or should I say shouldn’t like the number 13:

Some speculate that a fear of the number 13 is the reason we recognize only 12 constellations in the Zodiac, omitting a thirteenth Ophiuchus, the Serpent Holder.

The ancient Hebrews thought 13 was unlucky because the thirteenth letter of the Hebrew alphabet is the letter M, which is the first letter in the word "mavet," meaning death.

Belief that 13 is unlucky because it follows 12, which in ancient Babylonia, China, and Rome was considered to be a lucky number associated with completion and perfection

Bakers Dozen, some believed that the baker's would add a half loaf as a token to Satan to assure that the other twelve would turn out good. London bakers were subject to harsh penalties if they were caught selling bread in what was called short weight that the bakers would add the extra loaf to avoid the punishment.

A perfect coven consists of 13 witches

A dinner party should not have 13 guests, the old belief that the first to rise would be the first to die, this belief goes back to the Last Supper where Judas was the first to rise and the first to die. A hostess who has only 13 guests will request that they all rise together so that none of her friends will die during the following year.

The Last Supper had 13 in attendance, Judas was the first to rise and the first to die

The Norse God Odin had a party for 11 demigods, including himself, Loki arrived uninvited and when Baldr, Odin's second son, tried to remove Loki, Baldr was murdered. Therefore 13 was unlucky

The arrest and murders of the Knights Templar was planned and executed on October 13, 1307

In a male dominate society 13 is considered a feminine number therefore it is unlucky

Yeah alright then... Half of it doesn't even make any bloody sense?!

Finally I brought you some amazing music...

From a guy who is based in a place that is very close to my heart due to my university years up there in the North East.

Alex Dobson I have to say, is one of my favourite artists I’ve featured on Bedroom Banter, he’s music just has it.

Anyone who can create a song that makes you feel great no matter what mood you’re in, in my book is going places and this exactly what this kid does.

I featured his first single from his debut EP ‘Count To Four’ which is having it’s launch party tonight, so good luck Alex!

If you loved it on the podcast check out his video to ‘Kites’ here:

And.... because this guy is so amazing I have a bonus track for you which is equally as a-mazing!

If you want to know any more info on Alex then check out his Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/Alexdobsonmusic

That’s enough babbling on from me today then, please don’t forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel ‘BedroomBanterUK’ and make sure to watch out for random ‘vlogs’ I’ve started.

Have a good one!

I never actually figured out how my webcam works, I think it's broke, unless I use Skype or YouTube, (that's my story and I'm sticking to it).

But here is a video of me losing my 'vlogging virginity', I doubt it'll be as exciting as it sounds, I talk about my 94 year old grandma and eating an entire easter egg. I do it with style though!

Yeeeeeeeah x

#vlogging #vlog #virginity #joke #lol #grandparents #food #easter eggs

So here I am bored because there is absolutely sod all on the telly so I decided to make a video on my laptop.

But of course, it went wrong, it's me. I couldn't get the webcam to work on my crappy laptop and here is a rant all about it!

Enjoy! X

Bedroom Banter Episode 12 – Thirty Pound Notes, Folding Fetishes, Fat Celebs and Whale Calls

This Week In My Bedroom...

I’ve put something together for the first time in a couple of weeks! I’ve been really busy as last week I was away in Leicester at the Student Radio Conference 2013 or #SRAcon whoo! (Possible inside joke).

So what did I have for you this week then?

Well of course I’ve done something stupid, I always do, and this week I have been trying to sell my car! So I found a decent ‘selling spot’ to park it which happened to be about a mile away from my house.

I didn’t really think about what I would do should I need it, with it being soooo far away but yesterday I needed it.

Now I know it’s only a mile and it’s not that far right, but I’m not an exerciser so when I embarked on the 20 minute walk I had prepared myself accordingly (food, water, survival kit, tent in case of emergency overnight stay).

Not really I just got on with it, when I got there though, just go on and guess what happened. I get to my car reach in my bag, what’s not there? Yes you know exactly what wasn’t in the bag and that was my bloody car keys!

I needed the food, water, tent and survival kit once I’d done walking there and back again!

From my idiocy to others now...

This week’s TWULI is visual ooooh, yes so I’ve stereotypically whacked on some giant geek glasses and videoed myself taking the Micheal out of celebrities, check it out below!

If you enjoyed my little extra...

Part to this week’s podcast (I’m referring to the fatty bum bum song), then get ready to enjoy the full effect as Danny Evans a New York based artist shows you what celebs would look like without money, have a look:

They’re literally the best looking couple in the world right? Not without money!

http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/features/4876623/Im-a-plebrity-How-stars-would-look-if-they-had-never-been-famous.html

The best thing I heard all week...

Came from a pile of hysterical happenings that have been going on to this past week. Like I’ve said previously I was away at the student radio conference this week which involves a lot of drunken antics.

It’s a great opportunity to meet industry professionals and network during the day and get to know fellow students via ‘Jung Bombs’ (fake Jaeger) by night.

So with chicken hangovers from buying out chicken shops and dry mouth from hog roasts without gravy, yeah that actually happened! Devo’d! It’s quite a shocker that the best thing I heard all week stood out from the crowd.

There I am with my mate who was part of the help team during the conference when someone comes over to ask if there’s another cash machine as the one inside was out of £10 and £20’s. In which she replied “Did you try getting thirty out?”

Effing LOL!!!

So break ups are bad enough...

But when someone does this to you after a break up, it’s just plain cruel.

But it’s just way too funny not to share!

Nearly pee’d watching that... HURRMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!

I don’t stay away in hotels very often...

So I don’t really know what the etiquette is for a cleaner coming into my room. I’ve been brought up well so I tend to be a polite guest and I’d never want to leave a mess in my room.

So after day 1 in the hotel, when I returned back I noticed my PJ’s folded on the bed and I thought, did I do that? I was really confused by it, because usually I stick them behind the pillow.

I just had to devise a test now then! The next day I purposely left my PJ’s unfolded on the bed to see what would happened, only to return to find them folded on the bed! Mind boggled it was like magic!

Obviously I had to Google weather this was standard as this week’s Google VS My brain, I just had to know if the cleaner had a folding fetish!

Turns out it’s pretty standard procedure and if I don’t like it I should fold them myself.

That told me!

Finally I brought you some completely different music...

That is just absolutely pure awesome! So I usually like to feature unsigned bands or artists, but this week I just had to whack this in here because it samples one of my favourite songs from one of my favourite movies and if you haven’t noticed from how many times I’ve said favourite it’s probably my new favourite song! Ha

Introducing -

French Montana Feat. Nicki Minaj with Freaks –

Pure pure pure awesomeness!!!

That’s it from me! Have a fabulous week!

Bedroom Banter Episode 11 - Thinking About Thinking, Measured Face, Millionaires & Paper VS Pad

This Week In My Bedroom...

I realised that I’m officially in double figures with podcast making (it’s episode 11 but you know how slow I can be with clicking on to this kind of thing). So what better way to celebrate this than to bring you another video!

So you’ll of heard...

From the podcast that the stupidest thing I’ve done this week is actually the video, because I decide to get the tape measurer out and measure how in proportion I am to ‘The Golden Face’, because I saw a scientist do it on the Sarah Millican show and I was curious alright?!

So here is it:

If you wanna see how fit you are, because I look major fit on where this video has decided to pause :/. Here’s the link to the website I used:

http://facethis.blogspot.co.uk/2012/01/perfect-face-golden-ratio-beauty.html

Remember to find the ratio you have to divide one by the other!ha

Because I’d made a fool of myself...

I wanted to share the idiots of the world with you to make myself feel that little bit better, as you do, so here’s some pictures of what this week’s ‘This Is The World You Live In’ look like:

Like I say every week, if you want to read up on the real stories check them out here, it’s more fun not knowing the truth though.

Who wants to be a millionaire?

If it’s you it seems now might be your chance as the latest TV rubbish to hit our screens is ‘The Millionaire Matchmaker’. Yep that’s right, a dating show for women to meet millionaire men.

Really?

When I continued my research into this, it seems that it’s a big thing this as I found a website devoted to doing just this, so you know if this is your cup of tea then get online:

http://www.millionairematch.com/

Alternatively you can just check out the trailer for this ‘amazing new show’ here:

http://www.4music.com/shows/634/The-Millionaire-Matchmaker

This week’s video...

Involved me introducing it with a little bit of a mini rant really, because honestly I am sick to death of seeing adverts where kids are learning how to paint, on a computer!

If you’re going to teach your child how to paint, at least buy them some paints and paint brushes so they can do it properly!

Rant over, mainly because this video I came across really did make me laugh and really prove the point that old school ways will always win, check it out:

Pure brilliance!

Thinking about thinking...

Was this week’s topic for Google VS My Brain, because I couldn’t think of anything else to do really, so I google’d ‘What to think about when you can’t think of anything’ again as you do, but then something sooooo much better came up.

You know when the search box suggests things for you? Well up pops ‘What to talk about when you can’t think of anything to talk about’. Which yes I admit is similar to what I was attempting to Google, until this website came up:

http://www.succeedsocially.com/thinkofthingstosay

I mean really? Go out and speak to someone! Don’t bloody Google how to do speak to someone, that’s problem number one right there!

Finally I brought you some amazing music...

From Jamie Beau, honestly I predict big things for him, his cover of ‘Aint No Sunshine’ is so good I just had to feature it, if you’re a lover of Radio 1’s Live Lounge then this guy is completely up your street.

If you love it check out his website: http://jamiebeau.com/

On there you’ll find his gig dates, EP release date and extra covers he’s done, they’re all as good as each other trust!

Well that’s it from me this week, have a good one!

Bedroom Banter Episode 10 - Funky Moisturiser, Return of the Goat, Beer Goggles and Visualisation.

This Week In My Bedroom...

There’s a first for everything and this week I announced that I was taking bedroom banter to the next level aka Youtube baby! So over the next couple of weeks I will be videoing different features from Bedroom Banter for you to see visually as well as listening to me bang on! Getting all fancy I am it seems.

However...

Just cos I’m trying something new, this DOES NOT make me lack in stupidity, actually when you watch the video you’ll find that my dimness shines through quite brightly!

Yeah so the stupid thing I did this week involved lack of time and lack of intelligence whilst travelling to that there London, well actually we nearly didn’t make it, because I forgot the tickets.

Which was stupid obvs. We did however manage to make it through two days in London me and the mother (girly theatre weekend) until our journey back, honestly we just can’t travel as a pair it seems, therefore coming up later there is actually a stupidest thing PART 2!

As I don’t like being the village idiot...

I always enjoy bringing the idiots of the world to you in This Is The World You Live In and this week it looked like this...

In honour of Gary the goat...

And due to the fact that goats seem to be the new ‘it’ animal. I decided to dedicate this weeks video to goats!

In particular the new musical goats that have been hijacking famous songs with their beautiful tones, introducing goat versions of songs...

Taylor Swift -

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HLI4EuDckgM

Nicky Minaj -

PSY -

Top 5 Compilation (Katy Perry is my personal fave) -

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVvbfuGu9eM

Seriously I spent an hour watching these, major major LOL!

The visualisation part then...

Here is Google VS My Brain, in video form! Oh yeah I went there.

Honestly though, this women’s bowel movements must have looked like this...

Like I said earlier...

Basically the apple never falls far from the tree does it? I mean as the stupidest thing I did this week involved travel and now stupidest thing part two involves travel, me and my mother just can’t travel!

To cut a long story short, we like us food me and mother, so when we grabbed a bite to eat just before our journey home from London, our minds where pretty much focused on the food.

Until my mum noticed her bag was no longer there. Now in London it’s no secret that there’s pick pockets etc. so the first thought was that it had been stolen, turns out once I reported this that my mum had in fact left her bag by the sandwich fridge in the cafe.

We’re in London King’s Cross at this point! An unidentified bag is not treat lightly and had already been through the x-ray machine when my mum turned up at lost property.

Yeah my mum was moments away from causing a bomb scare.

Like mother like daughter.

Finally...

Because I love a good charity single and I really love these guys and it’s red nose day next week, I decided to leave you with One Directions charity single.

I love it and for the price it costs please download it because it goes to a good cause! If you want to hear more about what they’re doing along with their charity single for Red Nose Day then here’s the site:

Enjoy it and have a great week!

Bedroom Banter Episode 9 - Dancing Badgers, Guy Liner, Wrong Tweets & Alternative Valentines Music

This week in my bedroom...

I had a confession regarding my ‘alternative valentines special’. As you know I said I was gonna do one, but then I ran out of time so instead I just chucked in some stories this week, well I did say it was alternative what difference is the 14th to the 22nd eh?

First up though...

I wanted to tell you about the stupidest thing I did this week, why is there always something eh?

Basically it was a social media fail, so don’t pretend that you’ve thought you was private messaging someone on Facebook when you was actually updating your status and with Twitter well that whole 140 character business just causes punctuation suicide and makes us all look like idiots.

Sticking with Twitter then, if you’re an avid user like myself you’ll know that you can sometimes find yourself in a ‘Tweet off’ which involves quick wit and cracking banter, but also speed.

So whilst in a tweet off with a friend of mine, we was discussing our drunken trip we have planned and part of my ‘wit’ was to add the guy who will also be joining us.

Yeah, I added the wrong guy. Now in any normal situation this could easily be justified with a simple “Sorry mate wrong person”, but obviously I’m Jodie Bryant and normal is not something that is part of my life.

For a start the ‘added’ guy had the same name but the worst and most stupid part was the actual subject we was discussing...

#hangoverhugs #hangover3party #THREEWAYSPOON

#awkward

Then it was time for TWULI!

I actually really enjoyed this week’s ‘This Is The World You Live In’ it did make me chuckle, especially Boris Johnson’s usual quick wit, but if you want to read up on the ‘true stories’ then hit the links below:

The best thing I’d heard this week...

Well over the past couple of weeks is Valentines related (see told you I put you some alternative in there).

Honestly it made me laugh so much I just had to get it in, as I explained in the podcast there was an odd choice of music playing down the valentines aisle of my local supermarket here’s a little hint of what I gathered would happen if you played this on your date.

The Video/ Website/ Awesome but Crap...

For this week was this link:

www.badgerbadgerbadger.com

Honestly I can’t even explain in words what happens when you click this link, I just know it’s so bad it’s amazing!

Then I had a lovely love story for you...

See whacking some more alternative valentines in for ya again.

Obviously you only have to read a couple of my blogs to know I’m being completely sarcastic saying it’s lovely.

This idiot of a women has had her lover’s name tattooed ON HER FACE. After they had been together A DAY!

This lovely couple had met over the internet, fell in love, he tattooed her face, she let him.

Yeah take a look...

What an absolute k**b.

This week’s mind boggling Google then...

Was simply does Noel Edmonds wear guyliner or not? Has this 63 year old man joined the ‘metrosexuals’? Have a look what do you think?

Yeah he does doesn’t he?

And has his hair highlighted.

And his beard coloured.

Yeah.

Finally it was time to bring you a banging track...

To give you that Friday feeling (and because I couldn’t get a new music band this week).

Not one to disappoint you though this track really is epic, it’s the current UK number 1 but as well as this the video is awesome!

Check it out and enjoy!

That’s all from me have a good one!

Bedroom Banter Episode 8 - River Monsters, Snot Rags, Naughty Words and Wrong Interviews.

This Week In My Bedroom...

I think I was a bit giddy really, listening back to this week’s episode I’m not gonna lie, I laughed a lot through it, so hopefully you will.

This is probably why...

I’ve had a stupid week in general, but overall the stupidest thing I did was rock up to the wrong job interview. Now I’ve had a lot of job interviews, and if you’re a regular listener then you’ll know that I don’t have the greatest experiences with bosses, not in a bad way, just in a clumsy idiot way.

With this particular interview though, it was serious stuff. In other words it was a proper grown up job where I had to wear a suit and everything. I say suit, but let’s be honest I haven’t got suit money. So I threw together my black trousers and going out jacket with a pretty blouse and thought screw it, I look alright.

So I probably wasn't off to the best start but at least there was some thought behind the outfit. However I actually really really want this grown up job so I researched the company and prepared well so I was ready to take on any challenge they threw at me.

That was until obviously they gave a simple time and place to follow.

So as you heard in this week’s episode it took me ten minutes to realise I was in the wrong place, followed with an embarrassing interruption of this interview, then another five minutes to find the actual place I was supposed to be, to re-introduce my horror fifteen minutes late.

Face palm central.

So it was time for me not to feel stupid anymore...

By bringing you the idiots of the world, with this weeks ‘This Is The World You Live In’ aka TWULI, which looked a little like this:

Now if you wanna read the real life versions then follow the links below, these are actual stories!

The best thing I've heard all week...

Was more like the best thing I’ve heard/ seen all week. The other night I was there at stupid o’clock flicking through the channels when I came across a programme that genuinely made me LOL.

I stumbled across ‘Sea monsters’ in which I initially thought, oooo this could be pretty cool watching people take on sharks, but no. Of course that didn’t happen, because it never does does it?

The ‘Lone Wolf Fish’ was making its appearance when I flicked on, sounds ridiculous doesn’t it. It’s a bloody fish! Right so this bloke was on there being interviewed like he’d had his hand gnawed off, honestly it was more like this...

Can you see why I LOL’d?

Needing no introduction...

The first of two videos is only seven seconds long and if you haven’t heard the podcast yet well, check out Mr Smooth:

http://www.dailyhaha.com/_vids/this-kid-is-smoooth.htm

You understand now why I linked that, however if you did what I did and laughed that hard you did what he did, we would make great friends.

If you didn't and you’re utterly disgusted by that, this might cheer you up. Introducing a video where people instead of telling someone they’re an idiot get their smart phone out and record them instead.

As I said at the beginning...

I’ve been really giddy this week and it’s probably partly due to this week’s Google VS My Brain. I mean everyone loves a naughty word don’t they? Even better everyone loves a normal word that to different people means a naughty thing.

So as this week’s Google was to find just this you can imagine I found loads, so if you wanna have an extra giggle check them out:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_words_having_different_meanings_in_British_and_American_English:_A%E2%80%93L

I know it’s Wikipedia so it’s probably made up, but it’s still funny.

Finally I brought you an awesome band...

‘I Dream In Colour’ was this weeks featured band and I love them. I’m not usually a ‘band’ kind of girl because I always find there’s never consistency with their music.

With these guys however I was completely wrong, I completely stalked there sound cloud and their music is phenomenal. They have a great sound to them and you genuinely are hooked from the beginning.

Check out the video to ‘London’ even this is epic!

Bedroom Banter Episode 7 - Criminal Goats, Two Coat Trend Setting, Raving Elders & Hairy Toe Tattoos.

This Week In My Bedroom...

I returned to my room after a cheeky week off and searched high and low (or on the internet) for the usual random rubbish that I like to bring you each week, which included...

Being Stupid...

And the stupidest thing that I have done this week once again involved knocking about with my younger sibling. I don’t know why but it seems every time I venture to the pub with the younger generation something daft happens. It’s probably my immature side coming out.

Either way I have now renamed myself ‘Granny Alki’ now if you haven’t heard this week’s podcast yet I won’t ruin the story for you but here’s a little sample of ‘Granny Alki’ and what she’s wearing gives you a little hint to my stupid thing.

Then it was time for the bizarrely wonderful...

With Episode 7’s This Is The World You Live In, here’s a little look at what came up this week –

And here’s all the links to the real life stories:

Because people love their cats too much -

How desperate is desperate?

http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/woman/4759846/Woman-alphabet-find-perfect-man.html

So you would think after these nut jobs...

That I couldn't possibly find anything better for ‘The Best Thing I've Heard All Week’ right? Wrong, I have actually heard something better, it’s about a crime... vandalism... in Australia...and it was committed by... Gary...the goat.

A GOAT!!! Was taken to court for eating some flowers! Apparently this was ‘vandalism’ and poor old Gary was whipped off to trial to please his innocence, luckily though the judge saw the innocence in him and let him go free of charge. Hooooraaaaay!

If you want to read Gary’s story in full follow the link below, there’s even a video of him being interviewed after his case.

All I have to say is don’t worry it’s all over now Gary, chin up kid...

http://metro.co.uk/2013/01/23/gary-the-goat-walks-free-from-court-after-beating-flower-eating-rap-3363548/

The Video...

Of the week for me no doubt had to be featured because as I said in the podcast, this has honestly been one of my favorite news stories ever!

“Horse meat found in value frozen burgers”

Now I know that it’s not funny in terms of actually buying and eating the burgers, but the backlash from it on social media sites has been hysterical, for example here’s a few little jokes:

“My daughter has always wanted a pony, so I’m buying her a Tesco Quarter Pounder for her birthday.”

“I’ve got some Tesco burgers in the fridge. But . . . THEY’RE OFFFFFFFFF!”

“My doctor told me to watch what I eat, so I went out and bought tickets for the Grand National.” << Personal Fave.

“If you think horse meat’s bad, wait until you try Tesco’s veggie burgers. They’re made of genuine uniQuorn.”

“I went to a Tesco café yesterday and ordered a burger. They asked me if I wanted anything on it, and I said: ‘Yes — a fiver each way.”

Along with this we also had some comical photos such as:

But nothing and I mean nothing, beats this week’s video of a panto horse running round Tesco, it needs no introduction, just enjoy!

Then I Googled...

Like I like to every week when I ponder on things I see out and about. This week I read an article about how the majority of parents lie to their kids, well obviously they do.

I was once told my parents were going to London to stay with the queen, being a proud daughter it was only when I was NINETEEN that I found out that you can’t actually do this, yes I know I should have probably sussed this earlier, where were my parents? In Majorca having a nice sunny fortnight. Charming.

So this got me thinking about the most common lies we tell each other, so this is what Google told me and why:

It wasn’t me! –This is because some things just aren't worth taking credit for.

Oh, yeah. That makes sense. – Because it’s not worth looking stupid asking again.

Yeah, you look great in that. – Because no one ever wants a slap.

Oh, things would have been different if I was there! – Because this person is Superman and can always make a difference? They think.

Yeah, I’ll start working on that ASAP! – Because it sounds better than saying you’ll do it after the ten things you have to do first.

I thought I already sent that email out. I’m sure I did. – Because you’ve obviously forgot about it and lying to your boss is easier than telling the truth.

My reactions to these are slightly different in the podcast where I whack a bit of ‘Shaggy – It Wasn’t Me’ in there too, randomly.

Finally I left you...

With my track of the week, which is amazing. Due to it being so amazing I promised I’d give you all the links on where you can get more, so here is everything you need to find on the very talented Thomas J Speight:

Bedroom Banter Episode 6 - Housemate Ads, Gherkins Not Eggs, Dumb Ways to Die and Stupid Questions.

This Week In My Bedroom...

I created the first podcast of 2013! Episode 6 – Housemate Ads, Gherkins Not Eggs, Dumb Ways to Die and Stupid Questions. So what better way than to start this blog by wishing you a very happy new year!

So how stupid have I been this week?

Well, as you may have heard, I’ve made this HUGE decision to completely move my life from West Yorkshire all the way to that there London. The thing is though, I’m no geography expert and well, I don’t know London very well.

So what came first the egg or the gherkin I ask you? The reason I am asking is I found myself in a debate with a friend of mine after discussing my ‘big move’ and technically before making a massive decision like this, I should really know my London landmarks, for example what is this?

It’s a famous London landmark right? And well I genuinely thought it was called ‘The Egg’ I mean come on, it looks like an egg? Apparently it’s called ‘The Gherkin’ which resulted in me looking stupid after really trying to sell the idea of my ‘big move’ when in fact I don’t know anything about where I am going.

Funny looking gherkin if you ask me.

Up next we had a little bit of TWULI...

This is where I give you my own little spin on the news that’s happening in the world you live in, and well, the idiots of the world never do let me down do they?

So here’s a few photo’s of my thoughts on the weeks news stories.

If you want to read the real stories and not the ‘sarcastic’ ones than follow the links below.

The Best Thing I’ve Heard All Week...

I can honestly say I have never had so much fun on the internet as I’ve had this week. Now you would think looking for a new place to live is an absolute pain in the arse, but it’s actually hysterical. People are honestly nuts!

I would definitely consider myself to be a bit sandwich short at times but I am nothing compared to some people who are advertising house shares. There’s everything from vegetarian only houses, to hobbies must include kite flying to reduced rent in exchange for evening babysitting.

But NOTHING compares to this guy, take a look at his house share ‘requirements’:

1) No pork EVER in the house or fridge

2) No visitors can stay over unless discussed with me two weeks in advance then I will decide. If I catch anyone sneaking in deposit will be lost and you will need to vacate immediately.

3) No more than two visits per month and visitors must be in your room and CANNOT stay overnight unless discussed with me before hand.

4) No using other peoples things, shampoo hand wash etc. This will be charged to you.

5) 1 Month notice to leave

6) Alcohol must be kept in your room

7) Showers can last no longer than 15mins in mornings and evenings between 6am and 10am also between 7pm and 10pm

8) Cooking must be no longer than 30mins as other people will or might need to cook. Doors must be kept open whilst cooking, if doors are not open then a charge will be added to your rent for new wallpaper as I feel

9)There IS NO LIVING ROOM INCLUDED ROOM ONLY so if you sit in the kitchen area which is MY PERSONAL LIVING SPACE you must eat then wash up and go back to your room.

Seriously who is this guy? Sheldon Cooper?

This week’s video then...

All came from the fact that I once read an article about a man who died after walking into a lamppost, now I know the fact he died isn’t funny but the fact that it will probably say “Death By Lamppost” on his headstone is, come on its truly mortifying.

So from this I just had to share with you the Dumbest Ways To Die video.

Check it out, this is supposedly a safety advert, yeah right!

Google VS My Brain...

Someone once said that there is no such thing as a stupid question, but that person clearly never met the people featured on this week’s Google VS My Brain.

Now I thought I asked some stupid questions and that’s why this week I decided to Google... ‘Dumbest questions ever asked?’ To clarify whether there was in fact such a thing as a stupid question.

Google never let you down does it? My results found genuinely the dumbest people alive they literally go beyond the valley of the idiots, check out the link to see just some of the dumbest questions ever asked over the internet, you will seriously be PMSL’ing by the end!

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/09/07/stupid-yahoo-answers-dumb-bad-worst_n_1861634.html#slide=1476403

Finally it was time...

To leave you with my Track Of The Week, which is an absolute spanker may I just add!

From DJ Earworm, it was United State of Pop 2012, which I have to admit is my favourite from him so far. This guy is an absolute genius, literally the king of mashups. Basically what he does is he takes the billboard top 100 from the year and mashes them together, it’s phenomenal!

If you loved the track head over to his website to check out all his other stuff, totes recommend you check out United State of Pop 2009, trust you won’t be disappointed.

http://djearworm.com/

For now though I’ll leave you with the track and video, he even mashes up the video! And I will be back next week!

Have a good one.

Bedroom Banter Episode 5 – African Bands, Breakdown Humour, Eternal Snowmen and Brilliant Break Ups.

This Week In My Bedroom...

The stupidest thing I did this week…

Was an absolute beauty! Everyone at some point or another has skived worked.

As its Christmas and I needed a little bit of extra time for some Crimbo shopping, I decided to get someone to cover for me (without telling my boss) and take a cheeky little trip down to London to get some presents!

When it got to about 4’oclock in the afternoon, (the usual time my boss tends to ring) I decided it wasn’t too busy on Oxford Street at the time so I decided to risk it for a chocolate biscuit and take his call. If he asks where I am I’ll just say I’m doing a bit of after work shopping. Valid excuse right?

Till this happened…

Yeaaaah, if you don’t get what the photo means check out the podcast for the full story. To cut a long story short though, never EVER answer your phone when on Oxford Street, when you’re skiving work.

So I’d been stupid so I wanted to see who else was…

Therefore it was time for TWULI, aka ‘The World You live In’. For the full stories and not my ridiculous versions follow the links below:

Does anyone even care what Katie Price does anymore?

http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showbiz/4706989/Katie-Prices-theatre-date-with-Keiran.html

Next I thought it would be nice to bring you something new...

With my brand new feature that I’ve named ‘The Best Thing I’ve Heard All Week’.

I tend to hear things during my day to day life that kind of make me go, whaaat? Did someone actually just say and or do that, and this week was no exception. I actually find it quite brilliant and definitely see the humour behind it!

So some breakdown companies this year to cheer customers up are playing ‘Chris Rea’s – Driving home for Christmas’ whilst their customers are on hold, because they’ve broken down!!

Now I know it’s an absolute pain in the ass when your car breaks down, but you’ve got to see the funny side right?

Even if you don’t, here it is:

This weeks video...

Is for anyone that needs to get out of a relationship, which could possibly be a mutual feeling for the couple, but you don’t know how to break it to your friends and family.

A couple for New York have decided after five years that they no longer want to be together because they both want different things from life. Afraid of how the people around them would react they’ve decided to create a music video explaining their situation.

This song is brilliant! I have honestly had it in my head all day and well it’s the best break up I have EVER seen.

Watch out for the clarinet and harmonica getting whapped out mid way, it’s just great!

I do like to challenge my mind...

So every week I bring to you ‘Google VS My Brain’. As it’s only four more sleeps till Christmas and Christmas usually relates to snow and snow turns into snowmen. I decided to find out the oldest snowman ever, because we had a snowman stump in our garden for about three months when I was a kid, so I thought that was unbeatable.

Until, I heard about Joerg Jozwiak, a scientist in Berlin who basically had a really weird attachment to a snowman he built, (it reminded him of his childhood) and decided to put it in a solar fridge all summer so he could stay alive.

He also named him Frosty, original...

Joerg has now decided however that after a year, enough was enough and allowed it to melt outside on the lawn at the University he works at.

Poor old Frosty...

Finally...

As I like to spoil you lot, I decided to add another new feature to Bedroom Banter and bring you some music to end with a bit of tunage at the end of each episode.

The favourite for Christmas number 1 this year is ‘Justice Collective – He Aint Heavy He’s My Brother’ so I couldn’t think of anything better for this weeks podcast.

It’s a brilliant cover of the 1969 version from The Hollies and proceeds from sales will go towards the legal costs of the families of Liverpool supporters who lost their lives during The Hillsborough Disaster.

Although I am not a Liverpool supporter I am a huge football fan and think that it’s a brilliant cause and it really is a beautiful song.

Here is the link to a preview along with all the links if you would like to download/ buy the single:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=az-gajhqZqs

Next week I have an absolutely cracking track for you so make sure to check out next week’s podcast, to find out what it is.

That’s all from me this week, have a fantastic Christmas!

Episode 4 - How NOT to pull, bad casting choices & revolving door dilemmas...

This week in my bedroom...

Apparently the world will end next week...

So this could potentially be my last blog/ podcast. Let’s be realistic though, it’s not gonna end is it? Isn’t that why scientists are paid to scientifically check this kind of rubbish and pre warn us?

Either way, because you have the excuse of the world ending I decided that I would give you three things to do before it happens, something fun, annoying (because you’ve gotta annoy someone for the last time) and a way to spend all your money, well you won’t need it when the world implodes, or however it’s supposed to end.

Here’s a little hint of what these three things are:

As usual...

I’ve done something stupid this week, not even once, but twice! Honestly I don’t understand how I get myself into these situations sometimes.

But yeah, as I’m used to getting caught into this kind of thing, it’s easier for me to just embrace my embarrassment and share it with you. I just googled a picture to try and show you my dilemma and I kid you not a child has already drawn a picture of it!

I genuinely don’t believe it’s me, but it looks a hell of a lot like me...

Video of the week...

Revolves around the ‘Sexmas Party’ season. As I’ve said in the podcast, it’s no secret that people get a bit giddy during their Christmas parties and get the leg over with someone they never really should of.

So a company have designed a pack at the reasonable price (yeah right) of £60 for the day after the night before, read the full article here:

http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/article4693072.ece

I thought to myself well no one can afford £60 at this time of year, are they serious? So I decided to share a video with you that avoids getting yourself into this situation in the first place with the ‘How NOT to pull face’.

Check it out, this girl is nuts, but a legend:

Here is me and my mate putting it to practice...

See it really will work!

Google VS My Brain...

Made another appearance this week after I had a little ponder about shower gel whilst showering this morning.

I really DID NOT understand how my red shower gel turned white! That’s all I really need to say isn’t it?

Then came the ‘scarred for life’ story...

This all came after I read an article about a man who will be dressing up as a Christmas tree for the whole month of December to raise money for charity, please read the article below and feel free to donate, it’s a great thing he is doing and brilliantly incorporated into the festive season!

http://metro.co.uk/2012/12/07/man-dressing-as-christmas-tree-throughout-december-for-cancer-charity-3306469/

With him dressing as a Christmas tree this brought back the memory for me from when I was ‘The Christmas Tree’ in the nursery play...

Yeah teachers really are that cruel, however when I reached infant school there’s certain expectations of what you will be cast as in ‘The Nativity’. It’s what you look forward to as a child and it’s no secret, that every girl and every boy want to play Mary and Joseph.

It’s a real social status change, and obvs they become boyfriend and girlfriend during the Christmas period cos that’s what kids do right?

So I don’t know what it was like at your school but stereotypically, blonde haired children played angels, then whoever had long brunette hair was Mary, why? I don’t know but that’s how we rolled in the 90’s.

I had the latter so ya know what, this particular year whilst in my second year at infant school I really thought I was going to be Mary, it was my dream, I had the hair, I wasn’t that ugly and I’d never knowingly dropped a pretend baby on it’s head.

What did I end being cast as? This...

That’s not actually me I stole it from a costume website, but you get the gist...

Finally my favorite feature from the podcast which is...

‘The World You Live In’ aka TWULI saw me again telling you about some of the stupidest people in the world. If you want to have a read of the real stories follow the links below:

Episode 2 - Man Flu, Party Crashing, Wall Pranks and TWULI.

This week in my bedroom... 30.11.12

I’ve had the man flu...

Yes girls can get that too, well that is, if you’re anything like me when it comes to illness, your pathetic basically.

Unlike a male sufferer of the man flu however I plodded on, only moaning a little bit, so I could bring you episode two of Bedroom Banter!

Having man flu got me to thinking about what really goes on in a man’s head, after finding that this or these should I say, are the definitions of man flu...

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=man%20flu

I had to laugh because it completely exaggerates the symptoms and lets face it, isn’t this the majority of men when they get the snuffles? Now I’m not one of them feminist women that gets on my high horse or anything.

In fact I’d probably say I’m more manly than most of the blokes I know, so when I came across ‘The Man Rules’ and ‘The 10 Commandments of being a Man’ I couldn’t resist making a bit of fun out of it.

To find out just how manly you are, check out ‘The Rules and Commandments’ here:

http://www.ranker.com/list/the-10-commandments-of-man-law/litgoddess?page=1

http://www.justaguything.com/the-man-rules

Oooh Manly!

So the stupidest thing I did this week was...

Crashing a birthday party...of someone who was 17... who no one in my group knew... that didn’t have a free party buffet. WHAT KIND OF PARTY DOESN’T HAVE A BUFFETT?!!

Enough said.

The video then...

This week was a short but exceptionally genius one. Well that is if you enjoy people unexpectedly walking into walls and hurting themselves, like I do *evil laugh* Mwahahaha!

Really though I love that this train station in Stockholm has allowed this ‘fake store’ to be painted onto a wall, just so people can spend their days videoing people walking into a wall. Come on its brilliant!

Then I googled against my own brain...

Yes Google VS My Brain made its first appearance this week, in which I chose to have a ‘google off’ with song lyrics.

To be honest there isn’t much more detail I can go into here because this feature has to be heard. However here is a picture of a really cool horse wearing sunglasses...

Sunglasses after all, are taking over the world.

The world we live in...

Clearly is full of the unexpected random people that make us go, really? REALLY? Then we kind of go, actually that’s quite funny.

It’s our generation, we can’t help it! So that’s why ‘The World You Live In’ is possible my favourite part of the podcast. Therefore I have re-named it a super cool modern hip, what the kids do now, name- TWULI. Notice how I have replaced the Y of you with a U, cos I’m proper cool....

Anyway it’s also got its own sexy little logo too! Thanks very much to my friend Carlos Hutch. So if you wanna read up on any of the stories I cover you can find them by clicking on the links below.

Episode 1 - Sad Dogs, Stupidity, Christmas & The World You Live In

This week in my bedroom... 22.11.12

So if you haven’t checked out this week’s podcast yet, this is what you’ve been missing.

I spent around three minutes trying to cheer dogs up...

That I had seen once, from a distance, because they looked sad. No one likes to see sad dogs right?

So when I originally planned this I decided that playing ‘Who Let The Dogs Out’ to these specific dogs, that this would cheer them up, admit it it’s an upbeat song that you can’t help bopping along to, human or dog.

Then I googled...

And well, you really can find anything on the internet can’t ya? I literally google’d ‘how to cheer up a sad dog’. What came up? 10 reasons why being a dog is good... 10 reasons dogs are better than kids and finally... 25, yes 25 reasons why dogs are better than men.

That’s right some lonely poor old soul has really got that much time on their hands and that’s not even the best part of it, oh no, there was much, much more.

I genuinely was in hysterics! Check out all these reasons that didn’t make the podcast here:

I’m not gonna pretend I’m Einstein or anything...

That’s why I decided to create the feature in which I tell you the stupidest thing I’ve done during the week. This week I diagnosed myself on the internet, with chicken pox, then went to the doctors. I didn’t have chicken pox.

It’s not the best idea in the world or anything, but hey I’m clearly team hypochondriac so if you’re anything like me, and think you’re ill here’s the NHS website:

Don’t act like you’re not gonna pretend you have something now just so you can check it out!

The Video...

Killer Karaoke was this week’s video that made me actually LOL. A combination of I’m a Celebrity and The X Factor, erm yes please...

Whoever’s idea this was, you are literally a genius and I will forever love you!

Then I asked is it too early for Christmas?

But that didn’t last very long did cos I started banging on about my high school teachers re-enacting band aid, Mr Gumpet mainly, the legend that was.

If I could get a hold of that video it would be here, trust me I’d love to see it again. However so you can get a better image of Gumpet, obviously for personal laws and all that I can’t actually show you a picture of him but to aid you with what he looks like, if he was a cartoon he’d look like this...
