00:49Someone's pimped the chess club.
00:51What about that?
00:53Now, you all get asked a lot of questions.
00:55What is the one question you hate?
00:57Governess.
00:59I hate those really awkward questions like,
01:03Who are you?
01:05What are you doing in my house?
01:07Where are your clothes?
01:09That sort of thing.
01:11Cinnamon.
01:13Every town and city in this country I've been asked,
01:15What's Bradley like?
01:17And I always tell the truth.
01:19I say he's absolutely brilliant when he's sober.
01:29It's so true.
01:31It's so true.
01:32Dark Destroyer.
01:33Mine is when people say to me,
01:35Sean, can you read one of your poems?
01:37Please.
01:38Please.
01:39Please.
01:40It's so annoying.
01:41All right then.
01:43The public are so glad that I'm funnier than Brad.

02:28What do you do for a living?
02:29When I'm not shutting companies down,
02:30I work in the food and farmer industry.
02:31What do you mean, when you're not shutting companies down?
02:33What does that mean?
02:34Well, the first four companies I worked for all shut down.
02:36A lot of them.
02:37Really?
02:38And then I nearly took out.
02:39Yeah.
02:40Yeah.
02:41Yeah.
02:42Or by purely working for them?
02:43I just turned up.
02:44What do you do for hobbies?
