flowers in the road. Apparently after

30:02

he's planted the flowers, the council's

30:04

just paved them over because the

30:06

flowers are there. That's somehow like

30:08

a road safety thing. He's killing

30:10

it. Because they could puncture a

30:13

tire. Planting cactuses. I was drawn

30:15

to this story because one of

30:17

our favorite people started filling in

30:19

potholes in his own community, which

30:21

is Rod Stewart. We

30:23

have a channel on our

30:26

Slack, which is like a work

30:28

WhatsApp called Rod Watch. I would

30:31

like either Jack or Mike

30:33

to explain the origins of this

30:35

because I don't actually know what it is,

30:37

but it's just fun and we keep track

30:39

of what Rod Stewart's doing. Well, when we

30:41

looked at the papers, we found that there

30:43

was an unbelievable amount of Rod Stewart in

30:45

the papers. Whoever his press person is is

30:47

so good because they'll just almost

30:50

every other day, if not every day, there

30:52

is a small story about Rod, where's this

30:54

cool blazer or his rod out on the

30:56

street? Or his rod on holiday with his

30:58

family. That's what I like. Rod Stewart heading

31:00

over to Alaska to help hunt rat. The

31:03

wall of Rod, which was when we had physical papers and

31:05

we'd cut them out and we'd stick them on the wall,

31:07

but they had to get taken down because another

31:09

company was setting up in the office and they didn't want

31:11

all these Rod Stewart. Why would they not? I think it

31:13

was actually the structural integrity. There was so much rod on

31:16

the wall. It was a supporting wall

31:18

and Rod was going to bring down the wall,

31:20

like Berlin. We have to give a shout out

31:22

to Danny Carr here, former producer and series producer

31:24

of The Wire Got An ECE, who

31:26

I think made the Rod connection. Even

31:29

in one of his last series handed out Rod

31:31

Stewart calendars to all the team at the end

31:34

of the series. That's great. That's passed on through

31:36

the generations and I'm really enjoying Rod Watch. Do

31:38

you remember we had a cardboard cutout of Rod,

31:40

a life-size one. He came to my wedding.

31:43

Okay, it's time

31:46

for a winner.

31:50

Jack, which story do you think should win

31:52

this week? I would say

31:54

I did really like Mike's story. I was

31:56

a fan of Mike's story. I think Emerald

31:58

I liked the amount of...
