Jax Jones entered the comment section
Jax Jones came into the studio after his Live Lounge.
Scott and Chris had already tested Music Video or Adult Video with Lewis Capaldi.
Now Jax had to do it.
The premise remained absurdly effective.
Scott read comments found either beneath one of Jax’s music videos or beneath an adult film.
Jax had to decide which world they belonged to.
“This is disturbing, but I can’t look away”
One comment described a video as disturbing but impossible to stop watching.
Jax assumed adult film.
It was actually underneath “House Work”.
Another complained that something had ended far too quickly.
Jax again went for the adult option.
Wrong.
Then came a sentence so stupidly mundane it became the title of the episode:
“I have the same pants lol.”
Jax guessed adult video.
It had actually been posted under the video for “Breathe”.
Other comments praised somebody’s natural body, complained about camerawork and announced that the viewer had finally seen perfection.
The lines sounded completely different depending on which context Jax imagined.
He admitted the game was much harder than expected.
Scott and Chris knew that meant it was working.
Funny Business reached Get Stuffed
The programme also played another round of Funny Business.
Scott rang a company which answered:
“Get Stuffed.”
He had to establish what the business actually did without laughing.
It turned out to be a bakery, sandwich and takeaway business in Stowmarket, Suffolk.
The woman answering was so friendly that the aggressive-sounding company name became even funnier.
She cheerfully explained the business while Scott struggled to keep the conversation professional.
Then Chris got his own mystery call.
Jack the Stripper was not that kind of stripper
Chris rang Jack the Stripper.
The name suggested one very obvious occupation.
Jack actually stripped wood and metal.
Chris asked, with deliberate innocence, what Jack would do if somebody paid him money.
The answer depended on what needed stripping.
Jack explained the restoration work completely professionally while Scott collapsed at the ambiguity.
Funny Business continued proving that Britain already contained enough company names to sustain the game indefinitely.
Nathan Dawe checked in as Tune of the Week
Nathan Dawe also called as Scott and Chris continued supporting his new record.
They remembered him from DJing in Zante and discussed how his career had expanded into bigger headline shows.
Nathan said he had already exceeded some of the goals he had originally set himself and now wanted to take the music further internationally.
The conversation included memories of fake versions of familiar British shops and restaurants on holiday strips.
For Scott and Chris, it was another example of somebody they had known in clubland becoming a proper Radio 1 artist.
Never Happened continued destroying songs
Listeners had become completely invested in finding impossible lyrics.
Sean Kingston was challenged over references to 1989 which did not fit his age.
Kesha brushing her teeth with a bottle of Jack Daniel’s was ruled extremely unlikely.
Even Elton John’s “Don’t Let the Sun Go Down on Me” was treated literally enough for a listener to invoke astronomy.
Once the audience understood the game, no metaphor was safe.
