Making marbles = not a euphemism

While watching a YouTube video about the making of glass marbles, the narrator just said “the senior blower is back at the glory hole with his rod…” and I’m dying.

Actual marble maker making marbles, presumably

“That is a very important lubricant for the blowers hot tool…” and they started playing slow jazz music.

It seems like some kind of parody but it’s presented as a legit BBC show, on a YouTube channel that is all about how things are made. This is real.

“The snapped end forms a lump called the nipple…” I AM NOT MAKING THIS UP

“With great skill, they stretch and twist… longer and longer it gets…”

My mind is primed for innuendo but c’mon now.
