1. 0:00So hang over.
2. 0:03Classic radio one breakfast one with
3. 0:07Greg James. This is a game that I've
4. 0:09stolen from a listener. Okay. They did
5. 0:10it in the pandemic. It was a listener
6. 0:12called um Miah and they would just call
7. 0:14someone and guess whether they were
8. 0:16sitting down or standing up before the
9. 0:17person picked up. And when we have
10. 0:20people on the show as guests, we're like
11. 0:21that's quite a funny thing to get into
12. 0:23people's phones and see what's going on.
13. 0:24Okay.
14. 0:26So the game is called Sit Down Stand Up.
15. 0:27It has a really obnoxious theme tune.
16. 0:29Sit down, stand up. Sit down, stand up.
17. 0:33Sit down, stand up.
18. 0:35Are you sitting or standing? So, we're
19. 0:38going to go into your phone, Lord. This
20. 0:40isn't a live jingle, Greg. Obviously, we
21. 0:44I mean all this stuff. So, we're going
22. 0:46to we're going to go into your phone,
23. 0:47call some people. So, who do you who do
24. 0:50you feel like you want to call? Cuz I've
25. 0:52got some people in my head that I'd like
26. 0:53you to call, but this is on you. Okay.
27. 0:55Well, we have to think about the time
28. 0:56zone because the Americans will be
29. 0:57asleep. That's fine. Wake some people
30. 0:59up. I think that Gracie Abrams is in
31. 1:02Europe. So, I'm like, should we try?
32. 1:04Yes, we should. Should we do Gracie
33. 1:06Abrams? Let's do Gracie. Oh my god.
34. 1:08Let's see what happens. Okay. Gracie
35. 1:09Abrams would be an amazing shout. So, do
36. 1:12you think that she'll be sitting down or
37. 1:13standing up right now?
38. 1:17Gracie sitting down. Do you think? Yeah.

56. 2:03was good. That was a really good start.
57. 2:05Gracie Abrams sort of surprised. How
58. 2:08often do you talk to her on the phone?
59. 2:10We actually talk a lot. Gracie and I are
60. 2:12really in touch. So, it's not not a
61. 2:14weird thing that you That's not a weird
62. 2:15That's not a weird call cuz sometimes
63. 2:16it's Who did we have on where it was a
64. 2:18weird Nick Nicholas Hol the actor? Mhm.
65. 2:22He was in a film with Nick Cage. Oh god.
66. 2:25So they knew each other a bit. We said,
67. 2:27"Oh yeah, just call Nicholas Cage. See
68. 2:28what happens." See, some of these are
69. 2:30going to be like that. Oh, okay. He's
70. 2:32like, "Hey man, I'm just just surfing
71. 2:34some web." And it was it was mad. But
72. 2:37it's like not like Nick Hull and
73. 2:38Nicholas Cage chat very often on the
74. 2:39phone. But anyway, oh my goodness. We
75. 2:40need to go again. Um, where do you want
76. 2:43to go next? I'm trying to think of who's
77. 2:46where. Okay. Well, I could try Chapel R.

79. 2:50Chapel R. Should we give it a go? I
80. 2:52think we probably should give it a go.
