Armstrong
You're filling some big shoes. It's One More Thing. Armstrong and Getty One more thing. It's an odd metaphor really. Shoes aren't your size. You shouldn't wear them under any circumstances. We have a couple members of the show that just learned that, remember? Oh, that's right. Michael and Jack have been wearing undersized shoes for years.
Getty
And someone wearing bigger shoes is not necessarily more competent either.
Armstrong
Big shoes to fill. I mean, your feet can't grow. I get what it means. Again, I'm just saying it's an odd metaphor.
Getty
Before we get to something Saturday Night Live related, I was going to mention I was watching the Saturday Night Live from last week and I guess one weekend before, Ryan Gosling was a host who's one of the funniest hosts they've ever had in Saturday Night Live history, in my opinion. He's done it like five times now. He is so freaking hilarious. Anyway, they did a funny skit and I think it's first time they've ever done. First time I'd ever seen it. They started the skit and then they had on there they put up lettering. None of the participants in the skit had seen this before they read it. The theme of it was it was teachers in a classroom and the students were passing notes and then they were getting the notes. Oh yeah, what does this note say? And they hadn't seen them before they read them and it was so funny. They were all just dying trying to get through It. But I thought what a funny premise to. To hit your, you know, your actors in a. In sketch comedy with brand new stuff and see how they handle it. That was a pretty funny idea.
Armstrong
That is kind of fun.
Getty
Anyway, this was heard for the first time ever Saturday Night Live from London. Exciting. So they're expanding the Saturday Night Live franchise from the United States and New York to Great Britain and London.
Armstrong
Yeah, indeed. And not only do they have the big shoes of SNL to fill, but the big shoes of British comedy, which I've loved since I was a little kid.
Getty
Is it Lorne Michaels? Is it Lorne Michaels thing? It almost has to be, right?
Armstrong
Well, he's probably their overlord. I'm sure they have their own guy with, you know, the appropriate cultural sensitivities.
Getty
Yes is the answer to that.
Armstrong
Well, what do you mean, yes? He's involved on some level. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm sure. Yeah. It'd be insane not to involve him. So you want to get a couple of samples of it and see what we think. Wouldn't that be delightful? This is a comedian, name of George Four Acres. We'll hear his bit first. Oh,
George Four Acres
golly. Well, what if Donald shouts at me?
Armstrong
Oh, he's imitating Keir Starmer.
George Four Acres
Just be yourself, Prime Minister. Yourself is who everyone likes.
Armstrong
Hello.
George Four Acres
Oh, sod that scary, scary, wonderful president. Why is he so blubber? Difficult to talk to, sir, just be honest and tell him we can't send any more ships to the Strait of Hormuz. Oh, crumbs. I just hate conflict so much. Are you referring to the war or this phone call? Isn't there a way? I can not do both. I just want to keep him happy. Lammy, you don't understand him like I do. I can change him. I don't think the feeling's mutual. He can't stop insulting you. He called you a coward about that there, Laby. How did Liz Truss make this job look so easy?
Armstrong
Pretty good humor.
Getty
He's got a like a 10% approval rating. Kerry Stormer. So it'd be a lot, a lot different than taking on an American president where like half the country likes them. I don't like that they're exporting the idea that Saturday Night Live has to be politics driven. I don't know if that was just a portion of their show, but you know, Saturday Night Live for a very, very long time it had some politics, but it wasn't the main thing. It wasn't the Wake Up Sunday Morning and what did they do political last night show Right. Which I hate.
Armstrong
Interesting.
Getty
Okay.
Armstrong
That would explain your. Your venom vehemence. Let's hear another clip. Does this need any setup? It's from their weekend Update.
SNL UK Announcer
Renovations to Andrew Mountbatten Windsor's new home, Marsh Farm, have been taking place over the last month, including the installation of sky tv. So if you're watching Andrew.
Host
Hello.
SNL UK Announcer
You're not going to like this next bit. Also, I'm older than I look. Andrew's new residence, Marsh Farm, is of course named after the nearby marsh where his body will be found.
Getty
Our prince is a pedophile.
Armstrong
I say where his body will be found. That was edgy. All right. Like it? What's a good roll on?
George Four Acres
It was reported this week that the police investigation into Andrew is set to widen. The big question now is if Andrew is charged, found guilty and put in prison, will he be able to keep his mouth shut? I hope not, said his cellmate's penis.
Getty
Oh, boy. Wow.
George Four Acres
Okay.
Armstrong
Wow.
Getty
Thank you.
Armstrong
The unit making a statement. I did not see that coming.
Getty
Oh, that's a good one.
Armstrong
Wow. That was. I feel the need to move on from this.
Getty
I hope not, said his cellmate's penis. Hello.
Armstrong
All right, we got one more clip here.
SNL UK Announcer
We're now three weeks into the Iran war, which started with the death of one Ayatollah Khomeini and the appointment of another ayatollah Khomeini. Khomeini 2. But one's dead now.
Armstrong
She said. That's really good. That's funny. Show a lot of politics, though, which will anger Jack.
Getty
I love sketch comedy, but it doesn't always have to be politics, you know,
Armstrong
I. Oh, no, no, no, indeed. Although I really enjoy looking at other countries, politics and political systems and the humor and stuff, because if you. If you don't have a dog in the. The race or, you know, whatever, and you can just watch it and take it in as you know, without. Without any sort of personal feelings whatsoever. It's. It's just interesting you got a guy with approval ratings that low. Those are some pretty good jokes at his expense.

you know, since you mentioned this, I'll end the podcast with this. So you said have a, have a dog in the race or whatever as an expression and then you. The expression earlier about shoes to fill. Yeah, expressions came up yesterday in my kitchen with my son as I said something about this is, this is not a good, this is a coarse term, ladies. Oh no, can't wait for it. I said something about like a Christmas goose. And my 14 year old said, I'm gonna pretend I have any idea what that means.
Armstrong
Oh, Henry, my girl.
Getty
And then I said, you know, I, I don't. I said, I, I think I'm using it right. I think it, the idea is like you feed force, feed the Christmas goose so much to fatten it up that it's a digestive system is not good. I think that's what it means. I'm trying to think.
Armstrong
I've heard the expression without Christmas because they are famously free with their.
Getty
Anyway, so I checked, I did a little AI on it. Checked. I think Chat GPT.
Armstrong
Seriously, Katie, they ruined golf courses. I've just heard those Canada geese. I revealed my favorite, my current favorite Canadian on the radio show. The Canada goose is not. They're just crap machines.
Bethenny Frankel
They.
Getty
Yeah, I went on a walk with
Armstrong
my dad and there was just goose everywhere.
Getty
My dad, he was dead silent and then all of a sudden he went,
Armstrong
God, there's just everywhere.
Getty
This.
Armstrong
There is.
Getty
Wow.
Armstrong
Well said, dad.
Lenovo Advertiser
Sir.
Getty
Thanks, dad. According to ChatGPT, the expression shitting like a Christmas goose or close Variants like pooping like a Christmas goose or shits like a Christmas goose is not.
Armstrong
We get it.
Getty
According to Chat bt, it's a relatively modern bit of vulgar American slang, likely from the mid 20th century onward, with the first printed evidence beginning in the 1960s. Evoking the image of a heavily fattened Christmas goose producing a lot of waste, which is what I had assumed and I was correct. It's a playful extension of the more common related phrase full of as a Christmas goose, which I'd never heard before, which means full of lies or nonsense or a big liar. I'd never heard that one before. Both draw from the same imagery. Traditional Christmas geese, common in older holiday meals, were force fed over and fattened for the feast, making them stuffed and messy. There you go. According to Chat GPT.
Armstrong
In other words, what you said.
Getty
Yes, exactly. Oh boy.
Armstrong
Where did seeding grin come from? I remember.
Getty
That's a good one right there. Tomorrow we will do seating grin.
Armstrong
I certainly hope not. That reminds me, I am rearranging the gentleman's lounge in my house. That's what I call the man's the man cave. And I got a bunch of shelves, so it's kind of a library now, in addition to everything else. It is. And I was reminded that I had a book that I started, never finished, and ought to just reread at least the first half by Melissa Moore entitled Pardon Me. Holy shit, A Brief History of Swearing.
Getty
Yeah, yeah, I think we had her on.
Armstrong
Well, yeah, and, and also read a piece that she wrote a couple of years ago that explained the evolution of swearing. And, and I found it so interesting, seriously, about how one of the aspects of it was that there was no privacy in for like poor people in the Middle Ages or whatever. And so you would do your sex and your poop and everything, and there's always somebody there just walking by and watching you. You would, you would have like a one room hovel that you lived in and you would, you know, the wife, what she so richly deserved right in front of your other kids.
Getty
I could more easily do that than the, you know, oh Lord. Expulsion of waste in front of others. Huh?
Armstrong
And for the record, will the defendant state whether he has done that or not?
Getty
Jack? No, I've not.
Armstrong
I, I, you know, we probably have some resourceful listener who could find that podcast because it was, it was right toward the beginning of doing the One More Thing podcast. I think that we talked about this because I remember talking about some of the old timey names of birds that included Hanson get your. Your bleeper ready. But the kestrel, which is like a coastal bird that flies amazingly in the, in the ocean winds and stuff like that, back in Mary, old England was referred to as a wind. And that wasn't considered an obscenity because people did that more or less out in the open
Getty
with the.
Armstrong
So that's what, that's what I call them. That's what I call them. Putting mixed company. You know what those used to be called.
Getty
So I suppose that's true if you had a one room house. So like on a Little House in the Prairie.
Armstrong
Oh yeah.
Getty
After the first kid's born, all night long the next couple of kids are watching the first kid. Gotta watch the brothers and sisters be made, right?
Armstrong
Well, I guess you wait till your kids are asleep probably and then be really, really quiet. Yeah. Hey, keep it down over there.
Getty
Try to make your little brother.
Armstrong
You keep saying you want one.
Getty
I need you yelling. All right, Captain. Or something. I mean I need to.
Armstrong
Okay. Oh boy.
Getty
Jack needs a screamer.
Armstrong
Oh my God. Oh so bad. So anyway, Keir Starmer is super unpopular. Oh boy. I don't need to know my co workers this well.
Getty
Well, I guess that's it.

Guaranteed human.
This episode of the Armstrong & Getty "One More Thing" podcast is centered around the concept of "filling big shoes," combining musings on idioms with a spirited review and discussion of the debut of Saturday Night Live UK. The hosts compare British and American sketch comedy, dissect cultural differences in humor—political or otherwise—and riff on the origins and meanings of colloquial phrases. The tone is classic Armstrong & Getty: irreverent, observant, playful, and slightly off-color.
