the interview begins

   It all started when Fat Boy Bertie met Skinny Boy and shared tabs, beer and a similar interest in humor, sometimes a bit unusual but never funny. It was quite simply genius meets lazy bastards. Their ‘I’ll get round to it later’ attitude denied the world of true greatness. A catch phrase of ‘we should write that down’ and ‘lets carry a Dictaphone round with us and a pad of paper and make a note of anything to use later’ (with no intention of) would be said in one way or form at least eight times a day. But why hold back? Surely the world was being denied true greatness in these late twenty year olds. We caught up with them round skinny boys house where he lives with his parents.
   ‘So why have you never released any of this great material?’ I asked.
  ‘Dunno couldn’t be arsed’ was the reply of Bertie sat resting against the radiator of skinny boys room. Skinny continues ‘we hoped that if we held on to it long enough someone would find it an do it for us.’ This relaxed attitude sums up the whole genre of the single life of two unmotivated masters of comedy but I was not going to leave it there I had to find out more, to see the scripts if any and to get these guys to open up.
