Coming up on The Tonight Show some of the things we'll be talking about a new exhibition highlighting Sobel role models to inspire students has opened now this guy was thinking about the question does peer pressure still exist a choice now when I was a Union was a big thing you hot to drink if you wanted to get along with it with with many people he was kind of forced to drink I would say I was not a willing reciprocal to be but I didn't really have much of a choice shall we say but I was wondering does. Is Precious still exist today. Messengers service what's up will soon have a self destructing message feature these this a good move always these just an opportunity to allow people to send all kinds of wish to leave this message is that we don't know what age and the self destructing message is if I was to send you a message and you'd read that message and after a set amount of time that message with then disappeared with a whether you've saved it or not it will just go.

Jemaine Foster b.b.c. Radio. It is time to welcome young people's part of the last you panel before Christmas time the last one of the decade in fact I don't know I'm not buying I don't know right next time I see you guys it'll be a brand new decade will be 20 twentieth's horrifying it's like. It's like a new and futuristic time yeah it's like flying cars are just going to appear in the next month. A lot of expecting that's what I'm waiting to say right then so we're going to be moving on we've got our topics as always to talk about some very interesting ones today so our very 1st one an exhibition of portrayed in the stories of 12 young people have chosen not to have chosen not to drink alcohol has been installed at the University of Winchester Now the photographer at times in Ward says she was inspired to curate the exhibition by her own experience of university in which peer pressure led her to drink to excess she says she hopes students will discover sober role models among the profiles that might inspire them to resist such pressures in their own lives so I'm asking our panel who's joining us today if there is still a big drinking culture a university or is it a kind of outdated way of thinking joining me in the studio to talk about this we have Maddy and Mia Welcome guys thanks for having us thank you thanks for coming in so. Before before we get into the question of it do you will drink yes yes yes so does everybody drink alcohol Yeah Ok so I'm since being here will be in uni have you felt the pressure to drink and does that pressure still because when I was in Uni which was mostly How long ago it was it was a time ago there was total pressure to drink like your you were most likely a social pariah if you did injuring So is that still the case no I think I would agree you know I mean why do you why would you say it because every single life out of like educational events at uni is that you would think. So like even with the society as you know I mean by that yeah like those like socials are just drink Yamma socials or just how much can we drink in this period of time yeah yeah and it's like bottles in every bowl I found it I mean obviously that issued in fact to drink but I found it rare that the student got him or drink yeah yeah but I don't think that I have been on and I out with a girl who didn't drink and she was. Like a friend of a friend so I didn't know very well but like she seemed to have like a good time and no one was like it during mastering then she was totally fine and Mike was just drinking sprite was going on there wasn't an issue though that she was in drinking with people kind of know it wasn't it wasn't like. She would have impression it was just a couple people coming on and I was supposed to like a social or some kind of initiation or something like not where there's a breathing heavy drinking culture but even then there were times like when I was on the sly I'll be like are going to drink and then I catch myself and I was like you don't know if it's a touchy subject for some people or if it's just like a choice I would want about you so I think it's quite interesting social initiations especially with certain sports teams you don't need to name them but we all know the type sports that we're talking about and we've all seen the videos like there are so Ok you can name all right and the way rock behavior way yeah that's Ok. But like I don't leave those are the ones that we can see which have sort of quite iffy relationships with alcohol. One of the sports I don't really want to name the sport but it's to be pretty clear which one for anyone who knows but there was an initiation ceremony where they were like forcing 1st your girls to drink a couple of the cot and you're like come on like that I don't have both and I did like a couple of. You don't like Ok yeah I got all this and it's really really it's really grim and to those things other societies not necessarily sport where they played a thing called the Technicolor Dreamcoat where someone has to stand there with a lot of coat while people are drinking. Alcohol with. Coloring in it and other sick over their coat that's not normal reaction yet I mean likely at these type of initiation things like if you're if you're the person who wants to maybe join one of these teams and you say you know I want to play for this team but I just don't drink yes they're allowed to join I mean I have a friend who is in a committee in a sports team which I won't name couche crucial now it's. And I don't think it's ever actually happened with them there's been someone who doesn't drink but they are all genuinely nice people so I reckon they would. Not for someone and they would just kind of do it with water or whatever but I have a friend who wanted to join I think it was hockey or something like that like one of those sports teams that has a reputation and she was like I want to join it but I don't want to deal with all of that stuff like I enjoy the sport I don't want to deal with this I. Genuinely turned her off from wanting to do it I've heard I've heard similar things of people being turned off society's university because the reputation the pre-season with alcohol you know the thing is there isn't real whether it's real or not isn't relevant to whether that would be accepted not accepted doesn't actually matter because of the person's perspective so the fact that they've been turned off in the 1st place says a lot about. You know how a lot of quite a lot about how it's viewed from the outside and you know these they have to move themselves harder if you need. To go through time. Because. We've we've already kind of outed Robey in hockey so we'll stick. To. Them too as our example but it kind of almost comes hand in hand if you're going to be special I know when I was in you know if you wanted to join the rugby team you had to take part in these initiations even though even some of the people who didn't drink that much you'd see them being carried out of the student union Oh yeah whatever and it's just like they never have a drink then they have to if they want to be the rugby team Yeah yeah yeah like a what about you guys have you have you 3 here have ever been pressured to drink or have you ever felt the pressure to drink I don't feel like I've ever been pressured in a situation like initiation but I definitely say all throughout my 1st year I drank more than I maybe would have liked I don't drink nearly as much as I did and I don't know if it was like an intentional pressure but there was definitely a level of kind of understood pay pressure that we all just decided we were going to drink to an excessive point yeah I was just genuinely habitable Yeah like I had a great time and I wanted to drink like I used to go out on life to say. That I am being out in life 2 months and I feel the path and that's that's the what do you think you go from uni and you drink and you go and I'll pay a monthly just like that I got reason so Mr Naaman like the Real Well yeah and I don't drink no win as much anymore I'm lazy so I was like yeah I feel like incredibly lucky that I feel incredibly awkward in nightclubs I don't actually go to nightclubs anymore I'm calling you know with 3 years really just like if you're really weird. Which means that I end up just sort of going to pubs or whatever it's going to be very you know feel like isolated by like like your friend group the same struggle with a friend group we've rather I don't think anyone actually really enjoys nightclubs I think I think one time I think. I've jumped the fence that I think I think that there's a large degree of people in places I didn't want to be there yeah this is this is this isn't any fun. I think that we're on the way and why we go on air I don't know they want to go here but it's crap. Yeah no that's the way it is I thought you know if you want to. Yeah yeah right everyone was going to waste places like yeah you know France book is forbidden and Ok so you go there. All the think the the nightclubs a cop who's going to the wrong I mean I think that other places I'm a troubled person very good job of all that I. Never feel like I'm done like the Belfast nightclubs didn't like them and I close didn't really like them I can't sit down I just have to sit down if I'm going to sit down. When I'm going to put something to use or know when I mean being a guy being an Irish guy is you know when you would say to your friends Ok I don't want to go out with was that ever turned on you like you know what you mean you don't wanna cry you're one of the lads so you you know where is she supposed to be able to drink to an extent yet like I'm not saying I don't drink like I. Still drink like but I'm just not in those settings so my alcohol intake is very different so I nearly exclusively only drink beer and book fast so the only 2 things I really drink so therefore I never really get into the situation we see people get into with spirits but I think that that's also a byproduct of what I'm in a bar would be a bit weird to go and get wild for for example and yeah it looks like here you go 3 heads all yeah yeah. Let's go to a song Who back to continue this conversation after the. Weeknights from 7 to main fast to b.b.c. Radio may sound. Right b.v. It on the move it on to our next subject. Now who here has decided against sending some think in a message in fear of it being screen shot because you know I don't I've never thought about I've never will vote body but I think it will never happen just maybe as conservative comics about how the female I used to get Was just don't care clearly I think it's time to me but I just think that. It's more like whenever you don't see it says more about the people who you're mates with where Lake and cheese that's untrue the cavity political and if they're like people actually I think slip people screenshot things that they don't know they shouldn't until it's too late I don't like oh I didn't mean to but it's done well according to reports what's up he's testing disappearing messages that self-destruct after they are sent to the feature is intended to preserve the previous c. Of conversations by allowing messages to be sent but let in the record that remains of them be patched. When it's turned on users will be able to set a time limit on the messages so basically like the snapshot I was before. I'm joined here in the studio by our young people's panel today we have Maggie and Mia So guys what do we think about this thing is this a good idea for Whatsapp is this going to encourage response approved and what's happening or do you think it's going to make things a little crazy I feel like no one uses what's up for that person I feel like people use what's up it's like texting alternative where it's not just it's like its own creature is that because snapshot has this feature started so it's kind of creating a market Yeah I don't think it's necessary and what's up no I don't because life if you need to message I use what apps attack I don't use my i message unlike what's up is what I use so I I always go back home messages and stuff in the home the media never like that what if you need the message to do so like say some terrible happened and you need to show the police a message but it's not so it wouldn't be all messages Yeah it's not going to do that's all messages was it not just you know how do you have a choice you could say you could send this message and then put a timer on that message that you send I feel like if it's so important that it's not like written down call them I feel like you have to like what's not be going to call them I don't want a law I just call people the way or me you said it shady Why do you think it's shady because like if you put a tab on message you know what I want to say what do you say. You know to me because I don't really think about I never say any and bought to anyone unless like when I'm a lawyer so I never knows anyway so you know the difference whether I sent a message but like if I was being shady I'm not right and so on and about going to disappear like I just found it a bit you can think of a purpose I'd want it for yeah so for example I was playing in a go at football term in the summer apartment shoulder right in the 1st game so I tried to put it back and try to play off of. Success so I only really I only managed for 10 minutes across you know rest of the week but so subsequently one of the people from the team were my thing off. Me to one of my friends so if you notice the friend was friends with me right so that he was from a different team in Spain so I was wanting to tell someone from our team in Spain but I didn't really wanted to be a thing I just wanted to say right this is what's happened. Like I don't want to go any further but this is what happened isn't that a bit weird that would be really useful for that purpose because I sort of reticent to send the message a few times because I'm like well what if he screenshots and send it on and that becomes a thing that I don't want to but I would just use not shout for that like I've already got something fall about. To the person isn't on snapchat I like and it's a compliment to go so you think that you think this is and what's sad need to have this this feature I don't think we need to have it because even on Instagram you can send a message yeah you can do that I want something I was well yeah yeah you can you can delete it you can be for everyone but then it still says messages to be to the books I should go to find the positive reason why you would switch that feature on yeah I mean not feel like this is my thing obvious thing that everyone goes to from going to turn this feature on and then send the message what do you say in your walk now you say are you saying because if you say that's like Paul 75 What's that with an even deleted what about if it's something comparison I mean if you say for instance you were going to somebody on a day or something like that and you know you don't you really don't know I think it's. Heavily if they sent me like I want to go on a day and it Dilly it itself in like 5 seconds I would then say Now like I say you know these chats kind of thing like that let's go to a song and we'll be back to continue this conversation right after that's We'll be back in the sec. Me. It's. Such on the fun in the. Cold. The sun the fun. On that you are. Joining me in the studio I have Maddy and me and we're talking about what substances you can to incorporate disappearing messages messages that you can send with a timer that will delete themselves self-destruct do you guys think that this will be used more for than positive or negative reasons not to tell negative me a stream and they can say what about you guys. I don't know I don't honestly I don't really care if people want to use it for negative reasons they're going to use it there's other things people can use there are other platforms people can use for nefarious reasons but we shouldn't necessarily let the great get in the way to get in to just because this isn't going to be 100 percent positive doesn't mean which is there is a baby over the bathwater like there would be some benefit to be some negative Sim Everything you've missed this is an whatsapp saying you know we want to be want everyone to be you know honest and true and we want to make sure that communication is completely honest this is what's up saying we're giving you a way of sending snide and sneaky messages without nobody finding out that's what I see I asked what I see it as well I just feel like it's kind of pointless just because there are other platforms for that so I feel like if you're a regular sender of sneaky messages you probably already on one of those of the pop films an
