After seeing how many submissions they’ve received for Joe’s ‘Our Little Systems’ idea, David wants to use today’s Mailbag show to see if the new format has potential. And after reading out the first few messages, David’s feeling increasingly positive about it. But Joe’s really not too sure, so they start a timer and give it 30 minutes to prove itself. Will the listeners’s ‘systems’ be entertaining enough to make it over the finish line… FOR ALL THINGS CHATABIX'Y FOLLOW/SUBSCRIBE/CONTACT: ⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠Merch⁠⁠⁠ Email us at chatabix@yahoo.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Picking things up from yesterday’s cold-filled show, there’s yet more chat about showing off and generally being embarrassed by performing. Then David cryptically reveals a very perceptive comment made to him when he was a teenager at school, they try building some self-belief, take a cathartic trip to the beach and come up with some ways to keep their brains sharp. What a ride! Apologies again for all the coughing and sniffing!

Both Joe and David have nasty colds at the moment and feeling pretty rubbish. So they kick things off by discussing their illnesses, taking sickies, joe’s tactics for getting more holiday days at his old job and what it means to be a sociopath. Then, after wondering why they bother podding when ill, Joe challenges David to make the episode a double bubble. So they plough on with the chat - part two will be coming to you tomorrow.

Delving into the Mailbag once again, we read messages about one of David’s old bosses (which leads to a lot of reminiscing about previous jobs), a Norwegian cigarette quip, a Joe look-a-like (followed by even more digressions) and a litter vigilante video.

It’s the second part of our birthday double bubble episode, in honour of Joe’s 51st birthday. So following on from yesterday’s show, David and Joe discuss some of their insecurities about the pod, wonder why they’re getting fewer abusive comments, almost tell a new anecdote and finally realise why people continue listening to all this drivel. Then in an expositive finale, David reads some old tax returns and Joe digs out his gigging diary from 2011 for a reminisce. Happy birthday Joe!

It’s Joe’s birthday today so he and David celebrate by recording a double bubble episode! Well, it’s not what they’d originally planned but with lots to discuss about turning 51, David insists that they do. Amongst other topics, they chat about the Winter Olympics, Chatabix’s purple patch, getting closer to death, feeling irrelevant, appropriate jobs for old people and starting a birthday card business.

Well, it’s the last of our trilogy’s of episodes discussing David’s recent work trips to London. And it’s turned out to be a right roller coster of emotions as this morning he’s feeling very upbeat about the city and making the most of being there. So much so that yesterday afternoon he took the opportunity to visit his agent, killed time by looking into lots of restaurant windows and almost treated himself to a cocktail in his hotel bar. Then to end the day, he really enjoyed watching the Take That Circus tour in his room - and is now wondering if he and Joe might be able to become their fiends?

After yesterday’s recounting of his previous trip, David is swiftly back up in his London hotel room and feeling all discombobulated again. With a very eventful train journey there, including an encounter with a 60 year old weed-smoker, he and Joe are keen to pick up on their conversation about his awkwardness with leaving home and having to spend time in a big city. It’s his London adventures part two! And there’ll be more next week as they ended up chatting about it the next day too.

David’s doing a few days work a week in London at the moment, so he use today’s episode to tell Joe how it’s been going. As it involves leaving his comfort zone (in more ways than one), each week the trip starts off with an anxious train journey from Totness to Paddington station. And his feelings of awkwardness continue throughout the two days, all the way up to the relief-filled train ride home. It turns out that Joe has similar feelings when he stays away for work, so they decide to continue the discussion next time and turn it into a two-parter. Plus, David reads out a few Patreon responses to our ‘Our Little Systems’ idea.

David’s been watching a lot of The 1% Club recently and has noticed how much the show relies on the brilliant quipping from its host, Lee Mack. Knowing Joe’s considerable mastery of impromptu quips, David’s thought of a great game that they can play on today’s pod. That’s if Joe can keep quiet for long enough for David to explain it to him - don’t hold your breath… FOR ALL THINGS CHATABIX'Y FOLLOW/SUBSCRIBE/CONTACT: ⁠YouTube⁠ ⁠Instagram⁠ ⁠TikTok⁠ ⁠Patreon⁠ ⁠Merch⁠ Email us at chatabix@yahoo.com Learn more about your ad choices.

This week’s Mailbag show starts off normal enough - but then David reads a confusing quipping email from their Cockfields co-star, Ben Rufus Green. So they get in touch with him to see if he’s up for explaining things and luckily he's free to join them on Zoom straight away. So they get a full explanation of his quip and then do some reminiscing about filming The Cockfields and working with the late, great Bobby Ball.

The other day, Joe found himself stood up in a cafe in London chatting with three other celebrities - which made him feel very self-conscious indeed. So obviously he and David use today’s episode to dissect the whole incident and analyse Joe’s awkward feelings about it. Amongst other revelations, it turns out Joe felt like ‘that Primrose Hill lot in the 90’s’ - who he was a little jealous of at the time. So, plenty there for David to wind Joe up about then.

Joe wants to come up with a new section idea for the pod and has been inspired by a word he learn recently - dopplebangers. It’s a term used for couples who look like each other and he’s wondering if there any other new phrases that the listeners could tell them about. And also if they invent any with partners to describe a particular idiosyncrasy. David’s not convinced that but asks Chat GPT to come up with a name for the new show - and then puts a request out on Patreon to see what response they get.

On today's show David and Joe chat about sorting out their wills, posting the pod after their deaths, wondering when listeners listen to Chatabix, dealing badly with compliments and have another long discussion about how uncomfortable they are with showing off. Then, following our Instagram clip of Joe’s ‘old lady on a train doing coke’ story, they analyse some of the comments about it and Joe gets all judgy.
