Flip The Bird
Ricky: We don’t know…
Steve: Yeah, The problem with me is it’s like when you multiply anything with naught.
DJ1 and Ricky Laugh
DJ1: To the power of as well…
Steve: Nothing ever happens.
DJ1: Yeah, okay shame.
Ricky: And I’m a fat little ugly fella like that Reg Varney.
DJ2: Were there loads of people there that you don’t like and you could go up to afterwards and almost like metaphorically flip the bird?
Ricky: What’s that mean?
DJ2: Last week…you know “Flip the Bird”.
Ricky: You dirty…No.
DJ2: Middle finger.
Ricky: And you see I’m married, Steve’s single and he doesn’t…
DJ2: No what are you talking about…and there’s lots of people there…
Ricky: I thought it was a euphemism…sorry.
DJ2: …Who you haven’t got on with in the past, and then they’re all being really nice to you…
Steve: We got on with everyone don’t we?
Ricky: What does “Flip the bird” mean?
DJ2: Flip the bird means……you’ve got that hipster thing.
Steve: The finger, it means giving the finger.
Ricky: Yeah but I thought there was a dirty metaphor.
DJ2: No!
Steve: You’re always thinking this!
DJ2: Don’t bring me down to your level till at least 5 minutes…Coming up after the break we’ve got Steve and Ricky and the lovely Claire will be driving their desk. Alright Claire?
Claire: Hello!
DJ2: Don’t bend over like that Claire.
Claire: Sorry!
DJ2: Put a longer top on or something. You alright boys, you your very studious there.
Steve: We are, we’re working hard on the show.
Ricky: Just working out what we’re gonna play Dermot and what order!
DJ2 Laughs
Ricky: Ummm
DJ2: I love the way you even live the pretence.
DJ1: What about some Foo Fighters mixed with The Strokes, Ricky?
Ricky: I wouldn’t mind a bit of The Strokes or New Order, what shall we kick in with?
Steve: Err undecided yet Rick probably got some ads to err to help us decide.
DJ2: That dilemma.
Steve: Some advertising.
DJ2: That dilemma will be revealed in just under four minutes, stick around for it.
Steve: Merry Christmas Dermot.
