Verbatim from James Golding’s appearances on the podcast.
“I went to see my caropractor and he was like there's nothing wrong with you you're best shape I've ever seen you you're fitter than I've ever seen you your back's in better shape than I've ever seen like something's not right and want you to go to the doctors.”
“I used to be coming in at 6:00 in the morning with the sun judging saying you're a waste of life whereas now you're kind of waiting for the birds to start singing so you can go out and get a few extra hours in before everybody else is out and about.”
