They talk about the day and play some snippets of them exploring back stage and looking out on the arena before the crowds arrive. They feel like two dorks standing on the stage with their tiny microphones. Their new pal Steve Davis is DJ'ing so they hang out in his dressing room and have a little chat with him about being one of Blur's fluffers. Steve try's to figure out why Blur asked him to support them and they conclude it's down to the Chatabix effect.  Follow Chatabix on Twitter & Instagram: twitter.com/chatabix1 www.instagram.com/chatabixpodcast/ Patreon for early access to our eps: https://www.patreon.com/chatabix Crunchy fresh tees and hoodies: https://chatabixshop.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Joe & David have recently bid on some Deal or No Deal memorabilia. The auction house have sent the box of goodies to David's house. David excitedly opens the box live on the pod but is a bit disappointed with the quality of the four red prop boxes and the grubby state of the crew clothing. They find a handwritten message from the auction house and then discover that the pencil drawing of the Deal Or No Deal is actually a photocopy. They decide it's all very underwhelming so talk about David's painting instead.
