Back in 2019, BT Sport presenter Jake Humphrey shared some life advice on his Instagram account, which recently went viral again because of this tweet by Si Lloyd.
I often wonder how many people binned off their wives on the strength of this pic.twitter.com/t8b2yKBAuo

It’s safe to say that there wasn’t a rush to adopt his philosophy.

“Babe, sit down, we need to talk”
“What? What is it?”
“It’s over. I can’t do this anymore.”
“But….why?”

Some great advice here. I especially like ‘break up with your wife & fail’. pic.twitter.com/8PIJ4xQw0g

Fortunately, though perhaps not for Jake Humphrey, the clip caught the eye of comedian and actor Michael Spicer, who made it even funnier with his next-level edit.
“I want to do my job without being bothered by someone who sounds like a leisure centre manager with a few pints in him.”
He shared the sketch on Twitter, where it got these appreciative responses.

Hahahaha. ‘Inspirational’ podcasters need to be stopped – and I think this is the best way to do it. https://t.co/PehsIfARQ8

I usually just say to a plumber/heating engineer ” I’ll leave you to it.” The years I’ve wasted not being a life coach for them . Sad.

This is surely the best testament to the quality of Michael’s sketch.
Just missed my 2nd flight of the day home to see my family, which I was counting down the minutes to. I’m throughly pissed off and miserable and you just made me laugh out loud at Heathrow airport. I needed that. Michael sincerely thank you.
