First 90 secondsMarina Hyde· Host0:00
The Rest is Entertainment is presented by Octopus Energy. Now, celebrity culture has a way of taking very small preferences and promoting them until they require a lot of paperwork.
Richard Osman· Host0:08
Yeah, it's like the first time you've ever gone on a show, and you say, "Oh, could I have some sparkling water?" And then like forever it's like, "Oh, he has to have sparkling water, he must have sparkling water. It's very, very important." And that's what we call the rider.
Marina Hyde· Host0:17
The rider. Right. In some cases, the rider didn't stay sort of practical for long. You know, it started as a wish list, and then it sort of strayed into a kind of a hostage note from the ego. There was a point in J.Lo's ego where she was having like, you know, you know, the white drapes, the white candles, the white absolutely everything. White flowers, white, you know, sofas, everything. Most people don't actually need a rider in this life of ours, however, but there is something reassuring about not having to specify everything twice or more.
Richard Osman· Host0:42
And this is one of my absolute favorite things about Octopus Energy. If you ring them about anything, your number is recognized, and you'll go through to a team who deals with you and have dealt with you before. So yeah, you have a, a, a team, they recognize your number, and you go through to people who you don't have to explain the same thing to 15 times.
