The shouty sweary chef is not on UK television particularly often, as far as I know.

Great question!

I believe we can blame this answer on the Europeans! The NBA has incorporated many foreign players over the last 25 years. Many of those players were used to taking an extra step with the ball than the US game was used to. They now call this “the euro-step” in the NBA, and NBA referees have been a lot more lenient in calling for travelling as a result. At least imo.

No, they’re all new american shows!

bit sad that he’s taken the $$$$$ for a load of shite tv, he is a good chef and i prefer him as a restaurateur. I guess one of those avenues has less stress though…

hi neil young, thought of another question. in our supermarkets there’ll often be an american section on the world foods aisle where they sell twinkies, lucky charms, gatorade, etc. do american supermarkets have a british section and if so what are they selling?

Great question!

I have never noticed a British section specifically in our supermarkets. However, you can easily find a Mexican and an Asian section in almost every supermarket.

Hi @NeilYoung, long time fan.

Have you ever tried Marmite or Bovril?

Great question!

In college one of my roommates was from England, and he loved marmite. So yes I have had and will never again. :grin: Tasted like a pasty gasoline to me. I have never heard of Bovril, but if its anything like Marmite, no way Jose!

Bovril is sold as a “Beefy drink” - traditionally drunk at football matches in winter, but it’s great on toast too. The jars are just the same as Marmite ones, but with red instead of yellow lids

Sounds like the bass player from a second rate 70s punk band.

This is very rare in Northern Ireland - there are a few rarely used pay toilets on the street here and there but in any bus/train station or shopping centre they’re always free, and it really fucks me off having to pay for toilets when I’m in any city in England, and having to buy something just so I have the right change.

Surely having a pish should be a basic human right. It must be awful for people with IBS and stuff.

How? I’ve encountered pay toilets in loads of English train or bus stations and quite a few shopping centres.
