So I'd like your opinion on the matcha
0:02
No. You ever drink sat, you've got something wrong with you. Okay. So, that didn't go down
0:06
Oh my God. That didn't go down so well. Item two. Oh my God. Caleb Cooper. Yay
0:11
Hello everybody. Thank you for having me. Welcome to the show. We're very excited about your arrival
0:17
Good old London. How are you finding it in London? Good old London. Can't swear, can I
0:21
No. No. Please don't. No, I won't swear. Don't worry. I'm a good boy now
0:25
Got a kid's book out. Well, we'll come to that shortly. One of my favourite parts of, I think it must have been series one
0:33
was when you came to London for the first time. Oh, selling the wasabi. Yes
0:37
Yeah, that was a bad day. That was bad. I think I lost about £200 that day as well on the fines
0:43
I had three parking tickets and a congestion charge. Did you actually pay for any of the parking
0:47
Yeah, I had to bill Jeremy back. That's sensible. Put it as expenses
0:52
Have you seen anything funny on your way into the studio this morning in central London? No, nothing really
0:56
I mean, I left home at about five. So, I mean, there's not really much happening
1:02
Well, you say that. We're right in the centre of Leicester Square. How has..
1:07
So, the Cotswolds, obviously, once a sort of bucolic farming community. It's now changed, it would seem
1:13
Jay-Z's moving. Yeah, Amanda Holden moved there. Holden, JD Vance. They all fly..
1:19
The Beckhams. The Beckhams, yeah. The Beckhams are next door as well. They all fly helicopters everywhere. How has it changed
1:23
I see a clip the other day of Amanda saying that about these helicopters driving around. flying around her house
1:27
Is that right? She has one, don't she? Well, she doesn't own one, no
1:31
Are you sure? I can pretty much be sure. You've got some intel for us. I've seen it
1:35
I can confidently say. I'm joking, I don't know. How do you find that though
1:40
Do you find that, with all the sort of celebs milling around
1:44
does it change the place? No, not really. I never see them. I never
1:48
I never ever see any of them. I mean, I see Jeremy on a daily basis, but at the same time
1:53
I never see any of the celebs that i keep saying they're moving into the area um and if anything i'd drink it as a business
2:00
opportunity there you go they have a boy a farm hit me up i'll be it's funny you know i'll be there
2:04
because caleb is an entrepreneurial young man is our caleb i like i like that spin on it
2:09
you started you used to sell eggs didn you as a kid yeah yeah age 12 or 13 sorry age 13 i started selling eggs Started my first business at 13 There you go That super impressive Do you mind me asking did you do GCSEs
2:22
Yeah, well, I dropped out of school in year seven, well, end of year seven
2:27
Okay. And then I went back in year 11. So what exams did you do
2:31
I did... Jamie! You're not going to ask me, are you, next
2:35
I might come to you in a minute. I did maths and English and everything, which I passed, went straight into college
2:40
and I basically chose everything really easy, so I did art. For my final piece, I drew a dandelion
2:46
because they're annoying me so much in the fields. You spend a long time staring at them
2:50
Yeah, and I drew a dandelion and I drew it so I've killed it, basically
2:54
Because it was pollinating everywhere and annoying me. What did you get? I think I got a ewe
2:59
Oh, right, okay. It was quite a bad dandelion. I did drama
3:04
I didn't realise, and that may have helped in my career at the moment
3:09
but no, I didn't realise, actually drama wasn't actually acting technically it was about writing scripts and stuff like that
3:13
and i hated it okay um what else did i do i did oh i did resmat which is like like woodwork
3:19
okay okay you're quite good at that probably i didn't turn into the exam but talking of writing
3:23
because you said that you didn't like it but look i know yourself a brand new book caleb's
3:29
farm tales tell us a little bit about yeah no it's my fourth book now so i've got three
3:33
adult books and we've got a few swear words in and i thought well i've got three kids now so
3:39
therefore I must do a children's book. So one I can read, you know, reading this book instead of the other books at bedtime
3:46
We do lots of bedtime reading and they love them. If you go like pick off the bookshelf, what book are you going to get
3:50
And they always go for dad's book. So, which is great. But yeah, no, Caleb's Family Art Tale is obviously out now
3:56
and it's all about escaping animals because weirdly I've been in farming for 12 years now
4:01
Was it 12 years? A bit more than that. More than that, must be. Since I was 12
4:05
I started farming at 12 and I'm 27 now. Okay. Did you say you did maths? yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah you pipe down over there jerry
4:13
take a minute in k-lems farmyard tales there is uh one of the stories is it there is a runt of
4:22
the pig litter which you call jeremy yeah why is that where'd you come up with that name i don't
4:26
know really i just thought it was a great name right sums up it um you know every gem is always a little bit of a runt you know you are going down an absolute storm my friend on text hey caleb our youngest is so excited to
4:45
read your new book we love watching you on the telly what is your favorite animal on the farm
4:49
and what's your least favorite oh that's an easy one i think that's a book and it comes across in
4:53
the book oh yeah sorry oscar is seven years old yeah so it comes across in the book quite a bit
4:57
And that is my favourite animal is a cow. I like them because they've got different personalities
5:00
and different hairstyles. Every cow you look at, and do this now
5:05
as you walk past a field of cows, just look at all their different hairstyles. They do it on purpose
5:09
What do you mean, hairstyles? Every single one of them's got a different hairstyle. Don't be daft. Trust me
5:13
Honestly. You spent too long looking at cows. Trust me. Coming out like a tufty bit out of the top
5:17
Yeah, just a little tufty bit. Some are like really flat, some are a little bit permy, some are a little bit like shaved one side
5:21
I don't know how they do it, but they just do it. I was in a field once. I got charged by some cows
5:25
no you didn't that was quite scary were they just galloping with me they probably just come over
5:30
to say hello to you and you went they're going to kill me I got that so you've got to fight and legged it could you recognise
5:35
their individual can you recognise them in a herd of Frisians you could spot
5:39
who's who yeah yeah I mean I've got loads of cows that are named
5:42
you've got favourites yeah you shouldn't have favourites but I do no it's okay
5:47
I do and then my least favourite animal is definitely a sheep why is that why
5:50
they just try and die all the time try and die die die okay
5:55
I think it's a dive. For example, I don't know, as a farmer, you have some sheep in the field, yeah
5:59
You go, right, I'll go and check on those sheep, yeah. There'll always be one stuck in the fence. There'll always be one on their back in the middle of a field
6:05
can't get back up. Now, of course, you walk over to the one that's stuck in the fence, what does it do as you get there
6:10
Don't know. Going deeper. No, it gets out weirdly. And then it walks up to the field, turns round
6:15
you make eye contact for about 20 seconds, no more and no less, and then it just dies
6:20
Why? Enjoy school today, kids. don't look a sheep in the eye
6:24
I hate sheep I hate sheep Caleb you're not often in London

6:54
and then you blend it with milk. So I'd like your opinion on the matcha. It's what all the townies are drinking
7:01
Ready? It's not poison? What you thought? Ooh. Is it a bit dusty
7:08
It's not for you. What is it? Oh, it's stuck in your teeth. What is that? It's green tea powder

7:27
That was water, by the way, folks. What's this? Avocado on toast
7:30

7:35
A bit of tomatoes. A chilli? No, no, tomatoes, tomatoes. Maybe. What would you normally have for your breakfast
7:44
Eggs. Eggs. Bake them. What do you think of that? Avocado too
7:48
That's the first time I've ever had an avocado. What? It's not? No, I promise you
7:54
I promise you. You are kidding. How do you fancy a bit of avocado
7:59
I mean, it tastes alright, but I mean, it's like a pasty thing. It's got an interesting texture, right
8:05
Creamy. Score it out of ten. Out of ten. I'm not sure
8:09
I don't know nothing about avocado farming. I don't know either. Deforestation's a big problem

8:34
A labubu. That rolls off the tongue, doesn't it? They're hanging them off their handbags and off their school bags
8:40
