- 0:58Speaker 1: which are all very welcome along too. I'm Erry McBride,
- 1:00Speaker 1: that's Tom. O'Mahoney, and how are you all doing? What
- 1:05Speaker 1: are you doing? Tom?
- 1:06Speaker 2: Do you know what I'll just tell you? I now
- 1:08Speaker 2: think I have carpal tunnel syndrum. I hadn't picked up
- 1:11Speaker 2: a cago in three months, and I had a job
- 1:14Speaker 2: I've been putting off, an absolute tramp of a job
- 1:17Speaker 2: that I should have done way before the kitchen units
- 1:19Speaker 2: went in, but I didn't, and that was that. And
- 1:23Speaker 2: I had to cut a big, lovely juicy hole in
- 1:25Speaker 2: the back of one of the units to pull through
- 1:27Speaker 2: a an extractor.
- 1:31Speaker 1: Yes, the big Yeah, here's the thing, Tom Robot, here's
- 1:34Speaker 1: what I love about the Tom and Jerry showing what
- 1:36Speaker 1: some people love about the Tom and Jerry Show, and
- 1:38Speaker 1: I'm sure people don't. Some people don't like it at all.
- 1:41Speaker 1: Is the way You'll be like, yeah, I haven't picked
- 1:43Speaker 1: up a Cago in three years, and like we're assuming
- 1:47Speaker 1: people know what a Cago is.
- 1:48Speaker 2: I didn't know what a cano is, for the love
- 1:50Speaker 2: of Jesus, Like, come on, you never know.
- 1:55Speaker 1: Some every every power tool is some kids first power tool.
- 1:58Speaker 1: And Tom says, kango, he means a Cago hammer.
- 2:01Speaker 2: Well, I mean, do you know what they shouldn't be called? Kango?
- 2:05Speaker 2: A big hole can go much like Hoover, much like
- 2:08Speaker 2: Jeep is a brand, but it's actually a d wall.
- 2:10Speaker 2: This is what I was using to get to through
- 2:14Speaker 2: a double skin wall insulation. So I let me explain
- 2:20Speaker 2: what a pin the hole I had. So I had
- 2:22Speaker 2: to core up into the cabinets that were above the hob,
- 2:27Speaker 2: core through the back of the cabinet that is about
- 2:30Speaker 2: so that's two layers. Then I had to go through
- 2:32Speaker 2: the fifty min insulated slab that's stuck to the wall.
- 2:37Speaker 2: Then when I got through that, I met the foil
- 2:40Speaker 2: that's at the back of that to cut that off
- 2:42Speaker 2: to get to the block work. Then one skin of
- 2:44Speaker 2: block work one hundred mil four inches for Imperial people,
- 2:48Speaker 2: then another seventy mil of insulation in the cavity, and
- 2:52Speaker 2: then just for the crack, another fucking layer of blocks.
- 2:57Speaker 2: So I had to go through six fucking layers with
- 3:00Speaker 2: various tools. From I will say, though, if anybody's asking,
- 3:03Speaker 2: they're going, Tom, what's a great tool? I think I
- 3:04Speaker 2: have enough tools and all the rest of it. Do
- 3:07Speaker 2: yourself a favor in life by yourself a multitude that
- 3:11Speaker 2: thing well or electronic choose as some companies are calling them,
- 3:15Speaker 2: but there are a multitude.
- 3:17Speaker 1: Well, what I will say is this, Tom, that was
- 3:20Speaker 1: a lawful lot of description for I made a big hole.
- 3:23Speaker 2: Well it look more so that was for me. That
- 3:26Speaker 2: was a log that was captain's log for me as
- 3:28Speaker 2: to what that's my diary entry, that's dear diary. Do
- 3:32Speaker 2: you know who used to do that? At the end
- 3:34Speaker 2: of the show, what's the sabrin to the teenage?
- 3:36Speaker 1: Which, no, it might have been.
- 3:39Speaker 2: Well, that's that's my dear diary. That was my sex.
- 3:44Speaker 2: And there was a lot of penetration went down. There
- 3:46Speaker 2: jah an insertion of piping.
- 3:50Speaker 1: And I had to ask myself how big a hole is?
- 3:52Speaker 1: In the big enough hole?
- 3:54Speaker 2: It was just about touching the side. So I suppose
- 3:56Speaker 2: everybody was happy in the end, and it worked.
- 3:59Speaker 1: It worked. I made a hole in the wall, but
- 4:01Speaker 1: didn't fix the hole in my heart. That's how you
- 4:05Speaker 1: spent no glory a weekend. There was no glory. That's
- 4:08Speaker 1: how you that. That's how you spent a bank call
- 4:10Speaker 1: on the weekend.
- 4:10Speaker 2: This is no, that's not entirely I wish it was you.
- 4:13Speaker 2: That's how you spent three hours of your bank hol
- 4:15Speaker 2: week dishwasher that we've been logging through two different properties.
- 4:18Speaker 2: I knew, I knew this is on the way out,
- 4:20Speaker 2: and I had to go and get one this morning
- 4:21Speaker 2: and the lad was taken. I can only say I
- 4:24Speaker 2: taken aback by my. I want to say abruptness, but my, my, my,
- 4:29Speaker 2: lack of words, lack of need, or lack of of
- 4:33Speaker 2: faffing about. I was straight at the point, what straight
- 4:36Speaker 2: to the one I wanted? I went?
- 4:38Speaker 1: Can I have this one?
- 4:39Speaker 2: I went, I'm not sure if we keep them on site,
- 4:41Speaker 2: because I went, I'll take this one.
- 4:44Speaker 1: I'll take this exact one.
- 4:46Speaker 2: He goes, No, No, we can. We can deliver it
- 4:48Speaker 2: out to you. I went, I'm fifty minutes away. I've
- 4:51Speaker 2: got the one on the boot. You're taking that, and
- 4:53Speaker 2: I'm taking this. He went, let me just check, you went,

- 4:59Speaker 2: I'll back up the door. You can take this piece
- 5:01Speaker 2: of ship. And it was all done in onder three
- 5:03Speaker 2: and a half minutes. Jerry, this poor bastard was looking
- 5:05Speaker 2: at me. What's your name? He's like, Jeff Man good Man, Jeff,

- 5:17Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's I'll tell you one thing, Tom. This
- 5:19Speaker 1: weekend signified the end of my dry January. Now I
- 5:23Speaker 1: do intend to stay off the drink, you know, for
- 5:25Speaker 1: goodly portions of the of the rest of the year,
- 5:29Speaker 1: but not to date. Tom.
- 5:30Speaker 2: I just noticed people to to the to the to
- 5:33Speaker 2: the listeners. Which you all are, I asked, said Jerry,
- 5:36Speaker 2: drinking out like an Amazon jar or something. I was like,
- 5:38Speaker 2: it says for on the sweet tea. Oh my god,
- 5:40Speaker 2: the vipus. And it turns out you're not on the
- 5:43Speaker 2: sweet well, you're on the super sweet tea.
- 5:44Speaker 1: You're on the I'm on the spicy tea. Tom, Yes,
- 5:47Speaker 1: you are good lad. What can I tell you? What
- 5:50Speaker 1: can I tell you? I stayed off to drink for
- 5:52Speaker 1: the hole of January. By and large, you can't let
- 5:54Speaker 1: the face of the pep and he go buy it
- 5:55Speaker 1: without a few cans, But I said, buy an large
- 5:58Speaker 1: off it and and just this weekend, let the choke
- 6:01Speaker 1: out and I will go back on the dry a
- 6:04Speaker 1: wee bit. But for now, if you notice me slowing
- 6:06Speaker 1: my words, not a coincidence, everybody, I like him. You're
- 6:11Speaker 1: not imagining it. I like it.
- 6:12Speaker 2: You like the loose, loose colored Jerry there. Now you're
- 6:16Speaker 2: like a Japanese businessman who's been working at twelve hour
- 6:19Speaker 2: shift and you're down the local yamamori and you're about
- 6:24Speaker 2: to do some karaiok, and I'm looking forward to it
- 6:26Speaker 2: because you sound loose and I like that.
- 6:28Speaker 1: Do you know what, Tom, this could go one of
- 6:30Speaker 1: two ways. I could either get to be great crack
- 6:32Speaker 1: or I could get to be ornery as hell.
- 6:35Speaker 2: Yeah, I can I get you know what. I'm happy
- 6:37Speaker 2: enough to tread that, tread that barbed wire of of excitement.
- 6:41Speaker 1: Let's let's let's let's find out together. Tom. As we
- 6:44Speaker 1: launch into the show, you're all very welcome to the
- 6:47Speaker 1: Tom and Jerry Show. Uh and as longtime listeners and
- 6:50Speaker 1: indeed new newer people will know we we we kick
- 6:54Speaker 1: off each week by really delving into the news. You know,
- 6:59Speaker 1: the thing that kind of popped a little bit in
- 7:02Speaker 1: our in our sphere, the brew Tom, the scuttle. But
- 7:06Speaker 1: what we on the show have come to know as
- 7:08Speaker 1: the weekly what have you? This is a very complicated case, Mad,
- 7:12Speaker 1: You know, a lot of ian's, a lot of outs,
- 7:13Speaker 1: a lot of what have you, and a lot of
- 7:16Speaker 1: strands to keep in my head. Man.
- 7:19Speaker 2: It's rare. It's rare we get to break news as
- 7:23Speaker 2: big as this one because we don't typically go after
- 7:26Speaker 2: the obvious stuff, but we go after the stuff that
- 7:28Speaker 2: we know you want to hear about. And yeah, very.
- 7:31Speaker 1: Excited, very very I mean very excited about this week's
- 7:36Speaker 1: weekly What have you do? You know, as Tom was
- 7:40Speaker 1: dragging me in a choke hold out of the pub
- 7:42Speaker 1: ten minutes ago and shaking me in the car park
- 7:45Speaker 1: and asking what the hell are we talking about this week?
- 7:48Speaker 1: I just turned to him and I muttered, no matter what, Tom,
- 7:52Speaker 1: no matter what, Bride, No matter what is? No matter what?
- 8:02Speaker 1: Which is the new four part documentary on the trials
- 8:07Speaker 1: and tribulations of Boyzone, which has appeared on Sky over
- 8:11Speaker 1: the weekend. And if you haven't watched the whole thing,
- 8:13Speaker 1: you're bound to have seen some clips show up in
- 8:16Speaker 1: your social media. Spoiler alert, Louis Walsh doesn't appear to
- 8:21Speaker 1: be that nice of a lad Well.
- 8:24Speaker 2: I never.
- 8:28Speaker 1: The ones you least expect.
- 8:29Speaker 2: Tom music manager's less producer turns out to be an
- 8:32Speaker 2: absolute bollocks. And you know it's.
- 8:37Speaker 1: But Boyzone. Where here's the thing, Ladies and gentlemen, Me
- 8:39Speaker 1: and Tom, like I say, we exist on the full
- 8:41Speaker 1: crumb of existence. Born in the early eighties, so we
- 8:46Speaker 1: would have come of age around about the time a
- 8:49Speaker 1: lot of things went down you know what I mean.
- 8:51Speaker 1: One of those things in the mid nineties was the
- 8:53Speaker 1: appearance of as they were known at the time. Tom.
- 8:56Speaker 1: It has to be said, It has to be said.
- 8:59Speaker 2: Ireland's take that all one like Walsh was just copying
- 9:04Speaker 2: a paste and like he was copying what was happening
- 9:05Speaker 2: over there, and they were copying what was happening in America.
- 9:09Speaker 2: They saw new kids on the block, because on the
- 9:11Speaker 2: block then arrived the backstreet boys. Then take that and
- 9:16Speaker 2: then tell and I won't say it to a lesser extent,
- 9:20Speaker 2: but a more local, parochial event, you know what I mean?
- 9:23Speaker 1: Like, yeah, I mean I think we do this in
- 9:25Speaker 1: Ireland a lot. Tom. For every McDonald's there's a super Max.
- 9:29Speaker 2: Now you're talking and even I mean if you flip
- 9:31Speaker 2: it the other way still, you know, like a Saint
- 9:33Speaker 2: Patrick State Parade in Chicago is absolutely bananas. Do you
- 9:37Speaker 2: know every corner is done right, the river is green,
- 9:42Speaker 2: but you swing back and you find the one in
- 9:44Speaker 2: you know, Hascraw in Galway or you know Lockland Bridge
- 9:49Speaker 2: in County Carlos. It's the same thing but different, if
- 9:55Speaker 2: not quite just meant much glitz and glamour.
- 9:58Speaker 1: And I will say tom now and I'm not going
- 10:01Speaker 1: to lay into boyzone here now, So I won't because
- 10:05Speaker 1: we've all all grown up together. We're all friends now.
- 10:09Speaker 1: But at the time, you know, you had you two,
- 10:12Speaker 1: which seemed to be like they weren't you two, weren't
- 10:14Speaker 1: the Irish bon Jovi, you know, they were their own thing.
- 10:18Speaker 1: They were an industry standard, just like Guinness wasn't an
- 10:20Speaker 1: Irish beer. That was an industry standard that everybody else followed.
- 10:25Speaker 1: But even as a fourteen to fifteen year old young lad,
- 10:28Speaker 1: I could tell you now, boys on they're just they
- 10:31Speaker 1: are clearly just the Irish version of something else. We're
- 10:35Speaker 1: not leading the pack here.
- 10:36Speaker 2: Yeah, I remember. See, I can remember the Late Late
- 10:39Speaker 2: Show one that became famous where they were brought out
- 10:43Speaker 2: like a spectacle of these lads because it was such
- 10:45Speaker 2: a new notion to hold auditions for a band and
- 10:49Speaker 2: put throw them all together. Because bands would form in garages,
- 10:52Speaker 2: would form in schools of friends and whatever you know
- 10:55Speaker 2: letter you know.
- 10:56Speaker 1: Post you're a bit at the Christmas plate home.
- 10:58Speaker 2: Yeah, put or you know, posted up on the on
- 11:01Speaker 2: the noticeboard at school. Band wanted, you know, band members wanted.
- 11:05Speaker 2: But these were actually cultivated like you know, a hydroponic
- 11:10Speaker 2: weed underneath the lamp. These lads were put together and
- 11:12Speaker 2: then they were put out the show much like you
- 11:15Speaker 2: know Croffs or whatever. And the lads were put out
- 11:17Speaker 2: the show on the Late Late with Gayborne give us
- 11:20Speaker 2: a dance there, and they just put on some random
- 11:23Speaker 2: dance tune and the five lads just started dancing because.
- 11:28Speaker 1: We'll say they did their they did their best time,
- 11:30Speaker 1: but like, you know, it really looked just like if
- 11:34Speaker 1: you were to take five lads and just like shock
- 11:37Speaker 1: them with a cattle pride.
- 11:39Speaker 2: What it struck me was like, is it you know,
- 11:40Speaker 2: open the curtain side trailer and it was like stay
- 11:43Speaker 2: dancing for ten minutes and last man to stop loses,
- 11:46Speaker 2: you know, and wins one hundred quid voucher for O'Brien's
- 11:50Speaker 2: men's wear down the town. So they just danced whatever
- 11:53Speaker 2: shy they really.
- 11:54Speaker 1: Danced, you know what it was tom like, And we've
- 11:56Speaker 1: had it on the comedy stage ourselves where you go
- 11:59Speaker 1: up to do like get Tight seven or whatever it
- 12:02Speaker 1: might be, and there's like a headliner coming on after
- 12:04Speaker 1: you and the MC will kind of look at you
- 12:06Speaker 1: and say, the other lad the headliner hasn't arrived yet.
- 12:10Speaker 1: Just do another couple of minutes, right, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 12:13Speaker 1: yeah yeah. I could never Several times like I've been
- 12:16Speaker 1: signaled by an EMC of a of a comedy gig,
- 12:19Speaker 1: and I could never really tell whether he was saying,
- 12:22Speaker 1: wrap it up in two minutes or do two more minutes, right,
- 12:25Speaker 1: Like people in the comedy industry, we need to we
- 12:28Speaker 1: need to work on our hand signals, exactly same as
- 12:32Speaker 1: I've been. I've been like waiting to get called on
- 12:35Speaker 1: by an MC in my time, and I always wanted
- 12:37Speaker 1: to give him a hand signal to say, I need
- 12:39Speaker 1: a I need a poo. Can you give me another
- 12:42Speaker 1: five minutes?
- 12:43Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
- 12:44Speaker 1: And it's never been it's never it's never translated, and
- 12:47Speaker 1: you just goes Are you waving me that you want
- 12:49Speaker 1: to go on there because you got to get a
- 12:50Speaker 1: bus or something? All right, Terry McBride, Here we go,
- 12:52Speaker 1: and I be I would be up on stage if
- 12:55Speaker 1: you've seen me on stage throughout my comedy career, Ladies
- 12:57Speaker 1: and gentlemen, chanceits are. I was needed a pool and
- 13:00Speaker 1: I was like, here's here's here's fifteen minutes of jokes.
- 13:02Speaker 1: I gotta get out of here.
- 13:04Speaker 2: Well much like that. I mean, it doesn't matter if
- 13:06Speaker 2: you needed a pool or whatever. It is just prior
- 13:09Speaker 2: to being called on stage, like you could have a
- 13:11Speaker 2: bullet wound in your back. Yeah, but you go on
- 13:14Speaker 2: stage and what for whatever period of time you're on stage,
- 13:17Speaker 2: it's emactly you transcend all that you don't need it now.
- 13:20Speaker 1: You don't even know. You don't even know you're about
- 13:22Speaker 1: to share yourself, like you know.
- 13:23Speaker 2: You put the I've been like you know, and you will.
- 13:27Speaker 2: I'll tell me, take one step yourself.
- 13:29Speaker 1: I gotta tell you. I have several times I've been
- 13:32Speaker 1: frantically signaling in MC's that I need to go to
- 13:35Speaker 1: the toilet so badly before you call me on to
- 13:37Speaker 1: do twenty minutes of comedy, and they plow through it,
- 13:40Speaker 1: and they call me on to twenty minutes comedy and
- 13:42Speaker 1: you go up and do it, and I'm driven home
- 13:45Speaker 1: before the notion of going to the toilet has occurred
- 13:47Speaker 1: to me. It's not. I'm just like, it's just it's gone.
- 13:50Speaker 1: But that does that that takes us further away from
- 13:52Speaker 1: by Zone. We we were there when by Zone arrived
- 13:55Speaker 1: fourth and I had a bit of national pride in them,
- 13:58Speaker 1: I suppose, But at the same time I could tell like,
- 14:00Speaker 1: you know, you don't you don't speak of this in
- 14:04Speaker 1: probably I remember no.
- 14:06Speaker 2: I can I can watch that. I didn't know or
- 14:09Speaker 2: know about the world. But I remember seeing that dance
- 14:11Speaker 2: something on late late at that time. I remember thinking,
- 14:14Speaker 2: this is an awful idea. Do you know what?
- 14:16Speaker 1: I just I'm not good at this.
- 14:18Speaker 2: This is an awful idea, Like what are we doing?
- 14:20Speaker 2: And it didn't matter, like Louis would have just put
- 14:25Speaker 2: five ferrets up there.
- 14:29Speaker 1: Were these, these were not These were like just the
- 14:32Speaker 1: top five of what he had at the time. He's like, yeah,
- 14:35Speaker 1: get out there. And they went here and singing doctor
- 14:38Speaker 1: hook songs and like it.
- 14:39Speaker 2: They went on to great success. I mean it is,
- 14:42Speaker 2: you know, an interesting career. Who made it out of it?
- 14:45Speaker 2: I suppose Ronan made it out of it with a
- 14:47Speaker 2: big career. Mikey went back drawn silog I think, well.
- 14:51Speaker 1: You see, here's the thing, here's the thing Tom with
- 14:53Speaker 1: the documentary. From what I've seen when they went out first,
- 14:57Speaker 1: the five of them, Mikey Graham was the musician of
- 15:01Speaker 1: the bunch. He wants to du Yeah, he was like
- 15:04Speaker 1: the singer songwriter he was the guy. He could play guitar,
- 15:07Speaker 1: he could sing, he could write songs. He was the
- 15:10Speaker 1: whole lot. And it was just a case of now
- 15:12Speaker 1: we're putting. As it evolved, it was like now we're
- 15:14Speaker 1: putting running out front. And Mikey was, by his own
- 15:18Speaker 1: telling of the story. There are albums that Mikey did
- 15:21Speaker 1: not grunt on. He didn't. He end up acting in
- 15:25Speaker 1: that movie.
- 15:26Speaker 2: That Martial Arts Irish movie, that Irish.
- 15:28Speaker 1: Movie, Fat Mikey Graham.
- 15:33Speaker 2: Yeah, Holy ship. He went on to own a tire company.
- 15:36Speaker 2: I replaced Keith actually in the uh panto. He was
- 15:39Speaker 2: there for two or three years, and then he wasn't
- 15:42Speaker 2: And then I was you.
- 15:44Speaker 1: Know what, I gotta tell you. His loss is u
- 15:46Speaker 1: c h is game.
- 15:47Speaker 2: Yeah, he went off selling tires then after that, and
- 15:50Speaker 2: now I think.
- 15:51Speaker 1: He's Keith Duffy as you mentioned him. I saw Keith
- 15:53Speaker 1: Duffy in The Flesh a week ago.
- 15:55Speaker 2: In the Flesh because he seems to be getting stem
- 15:58Speaker 2: cell treatment. He's selling that now. At a minute as
- 15:59Speaker 2: all along with tiers.
- 16:01Speaker 1: I could tell he was at a meet and I
- 16:03Speaker 1: just walked by him and he was at a table
- 16:04Speaker 1: at a meeting with several other people, and I was like, fuck,
- 16:06Speaker 1: let's keep tough about that.
- 16:08Speaker 2: Stephen Gately died.
- 16:10Speaker 1: Stephen Gateley. I gotta tell you, I remember hearing about
- 16:12Speaker 1: Stephen Gately, Dyan. I was very sad about that. I
- 16:15Speaker 1: always thought Stephen Gaily was just like a sound sort
- 16:18Speaker 1: of a dude.
- 16:19Speaker 2: You know.
- 16:19Speaker 1: I wished him all the best in the world. And
- 16:21Speaker 1: I know, as the documentary tells, he wasn't as ready
- 16:25Speaker 1: to tell his story as the English newspapers were. In English, Tom,
- 16:29Speaker 1: we got to do something about them.
- 16:31Speaker 2: Fuck me, honorable mentioned I know we were doing the
- 16:34Speaker 2: the voice on this part of Hound mentioned Ireland bett
- 16:37Speaker 2: shit out of England at the Rugby at the weekend,
- 16:40Speaker 2: just to throw it in there. Just you brought it up,
- 16:42Speaker 2: I said, I wanted to just perk you up there.
- 16:43Speaker 1: And you know that once for Stephen Gateley, I gotta
- 16:46Speaker 1: tell you for what your for what your red top
- 16:49Speaker 1: media did that man in the early two thousands, while
- 16:53Speaker 1: we were still working through our feelings of nine to eleven.
- 16:56Speaker 1: What you did is Stephen Gately was neither good nor
- 16:57Speaker 1: Medland and running Key did just fine. Went to Australia.
- 17:03Speaker 1: You know, you know, did I think he did, then
- 17:10Speaker 1: Australia did like either the Australian Voice or Australia's Got
- 17:14Speaker 1: talent or the X Factor. Then in Australia did that
- 17:16Speaker 1: for a bunch of years. And what can I say?
- 17:20Speaker 1: There you go. But Tom, while we talk about.
- 17:23Speaker 2: Boys, wasn't there the one fellow we're leaving out there,
- 17:26Speaker 2: that the lad that got all the tattoos, the cranky
- 17:28Speaker 2: fellow who.
- 17:29Speaker 1: Oh yes, yes, yes, he him come up with it.
- 17:33Speaker 2: I think recently he was. I think he's doing some
- 17:35Speaker 2: sort of modifying car show or something at the minute,
- 17:38Speaker 2: like you know, exhibit or whatever. But he he came
- 17:41Speaker 2: out with a thing to make saying that he's quite
- 17:44Speaker 2: a I'm not saying full thing for all that, but
- 17:46Speaker 2: he's quite a conspiracy there. See. But he claimed anyway
- 17:49Speaker 2: that he's been at like you know, post album launchers
- 17:52Speaker 2: in like record label offices and they're actually you know,
- 17:57Speaker 2: praying to Satan.
- 17:58Speaker 1: Over their satanic yes for this over.
- 18:00Speaker 2: This album like that it'll go to number one and
- 18:02Speaker 2: stuff like.
- 18:03Speaker 1: Okay, again, here's the thing. If he says that he
- 18:06Speaker 1: attended these things himself, who are we to.
- 18:11Speaker 2: Argue I'm not, I'm not in anyway I do like.
- 18:13Speaker 1: To argue against his apparent lived experience. But at the
- 18:16Speaker 1: same time, Tim, I'm like, okay, okay, he.
- 18:19Speaker 2: Was always wespy. He cracked up another time when the
- 18:22Speaker 2: when the lads were on with I'm Getting Aberdy or
- 18:25Speaker 2: somebody or.
- 18:26Speaker 1: Yeah exactly, they replayed.
- 18:27Speaker 2: It as they are want to do it. They're archive,
- 18:31Speaker 2: they launched you, they are allowed to do it. And
- 18:34Speaker 2: your man, they're all just chuckling and going, ah, so
- 18:36Speaker 2: what are we like? We made a fortune, We're still
- 18:38Speaker 2: a living for a couple of years. Great height he
- 18:41Speaker 2: did you fuck him all roads like it was for
- 18:44Speaker 2: Len and it was like tone of down, you know,
- 18:47Speaker 2: all right, take it down and and this isn't the
- 18:50Speaker 2: later slow back there, Mary Curie, you didn't discover fuck all.
- 18:54Speaker 2: You got away with murder. You couldn't sing, you couldn't.
- 18:57Speaker 2: Then he got away with.
- 18:58Speaker 1: The best looking five that showed up.
- 19:00Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah, yeah, you got a good role at
- 19:04Speaker 2: the dice there, you know.
- 19:06Speaker 1: But Tom before we before we punch on on boys own.
- 19:09Speaker 1: They're the most successful Irish boy band, pop group, whatever
- 19:13Speaker 1: you want to call them to come out of that
- 19:17Speaker 1: later late two thousands period. I ask you about a
- 19:20Speaker 1: couple of other pop groups and see if you know
- 19:23Speaker 1: them or if you don't know them, hit me. Okay,
- 19:25Speaker 1: well one should be fairly simple, okay. And as we
- 19:27Speaker 1: mentioned Shane Lynch, his sisters, I want to say there
- 19:31Speaker 1: was two of them were in an Irish girl group
- 19:34Speaker 1: called Bewitched, which the Tipperary Sedom Triple. Yeah, God damn ah.
- 19:43Speaker 1: Two of the Lynch girls, I want to say were
- 19:45Speaker 1: in that group. Now, if Boyson were the Irish take that,
- 19:48Speaker 1: then Bewitched we're almost certainly the Irish Spice girls. Spice
- 19:53Speaker 1: girls are yeah, yeah, or R and D you know,
- 19:56Speaker 1: as it come to find out, spice grown women. Yeah exactly.
- 20:00Speaker 2: And the boy band was always a loose term to you,
- 20:02Speaker 2: gone boy, you fuckers look like if a mortgage olie,
- 20:05Speaker 2: like where are we going here?
- 20:07Speaker 1: This is yes, but by all the kinds, one of
- 20:09Speaker 1: the one of Bewitched had put, you know, some spurious
- 20:13Speaker 1: information on her details to say that she was early
- 20:15Speaker 1: twenties and I think she was genuinely late warties at the.
- 20:18Speaker 2: Time, much like that's in fact, that's not a joke.
- 20:21Speaker 2: The young one from Derry who lied about her her.
- 20:23Speaker 1: Age, Yeah exactly.
- 20:24Speaker 2: That yeah, yeah, But she was the other way. She
- 20:27Speaker 2: was like, yeah, I.
- 20:28Speaker 1: Actually be which were there jumping around the place and
- 20:30Speaker 1: she was just like me yep, you know like she was.
- 20:32Speaker 1: She was she was having a dreadful time.
- 20:34Speaker 2: Where's magnesium tablets?
- 20:36Speaker 1: No fight like me?
- 20:38Speaker 2: That?
- 20:38Speaker 1: Who will say, you know, I will say, like, you know,
- 20:41Speaker 1: for Boyzones music that has aged like a fine milk,
- 20:44Speaker 1: some of the tunes from Bewitched, if they come on
- 20:46Speaker 1: at the wedding, like, yeah, are going to belong of course,
- 20:49Speaker 1: yeah Jesus Christ, Yeah, absolutely So. Then for every for
- 20:53Speaker 1: every take that there's seventeen and for it every boy Zone,
- 20:59Speaker 1: there's a West Like I'm not for a second suggesting
- 21:02Speaker 1: that West Life were the East seventeen bad boys.
- 21:04Speaker 2: Al right or right or right?
- 21:06Speaker 1: Drive out of Me down head kind of banned. But
- 21:09Speaker 1: there was West Life, which went on to a greater
- 21:11Speaker 1: acclaim than Boys on I believe You've ever achieved question mark, Tom.
- 21:16Speaker 2: Well, interesting that you put the two together, because right now,
- 21:20Speaker 2: Keith Duffy and I was the blonde fellow that left
- 21:24Speaker 2: West Life.
- 21:25Speaker 1: I was Ryan McFaddens.
- 21:26Speaker 2: They are together now and they're called their band Boys Life,
- 21:30Speaker 2: and you know they are.
- 21:31Speaker 1: West Zone was sitting right there, Tom.
- 21:33Speaker 2: I know, I know. Did they have to go to
- 21:35Speaker 2: boys stuff when they're nearly fifty No, But anyway they're
- 21:39Speaker 2: out and they're doing their thing. I see him popping
- 21:41Speaker 2: up a social media and at first it was like Era,
- 21:43Speaker 2: but then I went, do you know what fair fox do?
- 21:46Speaker 1: That's I've seen some of those clips, Tom, and genuinely
- 21:49Speaker 1: they will show up at the twenty first. Yeah, I'm
- 21:52Speaker 1: not massive fair.
- 21:53Speaker 2: Play Keith talk, it's tires, have you buddies?
- 21:55Speaker 1: And then he he goes out and he does this.
- 21:57Speaker 1: It's very like in Ghostbusters too, when you see Dan
- 22:01Speaker 1: ak Royd and Winston z Ed Moore and Ernie Hudson
- 22:04Speaker 1: witness Ed Moore when they're shown up at the kids
- 22:06Speaker 1: birth the parties to do the song because the ghost
- 22:09Speaker 1: posters has gone out of business. Can't knock it, can
- 22:11Speaker 1: knock that, can knock it. So we know all these
- 22:15Speaker 1: guys and then hit you with two odd ones here Tom, ott.
- 22:22Speaker 2: Over the Top. I do remember.
- 22:25Speaker 1: Three or three female listeners of that age just screamed
- 22:31Speaker 1: when they heard that was that?
- 22:32Speaker 2: That was there?
- 22:33Speaker 1: They're called Ott over the Top or the Irish they
- 22:36Speaker 1: were Irish time. I wouldn't be mentioned them. Otherwise, what
- 22:38Speaker 1: do you think I'm going to bring in fucking Welsh
- 22:40Speaker 1: boy bands at this stage in the game. No, go on,
- 22:42Speaker 1: go on, go on? Ott were I don't have an equivalent?
- 22:46Speaker 1: If if why isn't more the Irish take that? Then
- 22:50Speaker 1: these guys I guess were the Irish A one, you
- 22:54Speaker 1: know what I mean? They were bottomed here no harm
- 22:56Speaker 1: to them. That one big song in the summer of
- 22:59Speaker 1: I want to sayninety six ninety seven was like I've
- 23:01Speaker 1: seen a picture in the story.
- 23:05Speaker 2: Oh yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 23:07Speaker 1: Yeah, let's write a chapter in the story of love beautiful.
- 23:13Speaker 1: If that's what gets the Tom and Jerry show a
- 23:15Speaker 1: Spotify strikedown, I'd say we will actually we ourselves.
- 23:19Speaker 2: It was pretty tight. It was pretty close to the
- 23:21Speaker 2: mark who you got one more for Me?
- 23:24Speaker 1: I Got one more for you? That was Ott. They
- 23:26Speaker 1: came and go went. But as quick as I've just
- 23:29Speaker 1: mentioned them, and the final crowd I want to say
- 23:32Speaker 1: is a girl group who wanted to ride on the
- 23:36Speaker 1: coattails will bewitched and they are an Irish girl group
- 23:39Speaker 1: five piece of the middle late nineties called Chill.
- 23:44Speaker 2: Chill, who was in Chill was in Chill?
- 23:49Speaker 1: Doesn't it ring a bell? Here's the thing, folks, Me
- 23:51Speaker 1: and Tom make a big deal about existing at the
- 23:53Speaker 1: full crumb of life where we were born in the
- 23:55Speaker 1: eighties and we lived through an awful lot. What that
- 23:58Speaker 1: translates to is now that we're in our mid to
- 24:00Speaker 1: late forties, we're just a vague memories of things that
- 24:03Speaker 1: happened we don't And then there's a lot of Chill.
- 24:08Speaker 1: What was that? It fired? The sign ups there, but
- 24:10Speaker 1: I don't quite know what.
- 24:12Speaker 2: Something happened in my brain right now right Chill were
- 24:16Speaker 2: an Irish five piece group that got a lot of
- 24:19Speaker 2: coverage in the sunder world.
- 24:20Speaker 1: I want to say I would have showed up on
- 24:24Speaker 1: Joe Maxi or whatever was the ute TV show at
- 24:28Speaker 1: the time. I don't think Joe Maxie.
- 24:29Speaker 2: Made Lecho Island is what they showed up and I.
- 24:31Speaker 1: Go Island right right, Yeah, and Chill are famous for
- 24:38Speaker 1: having never released a bar of music. They did not
- 24:43Speaker 1: release a single day, did not release an album. They
- 24:46Speaker 1: did nothing. They did nothing. They assembled five good looking
- 24:52Speaker 1: young lasses and we're like, we're a group, our new
- 24:55Speaker 1: singles coming soon. And they were interviewed in papers and
- 24:59Speaker 1: they had a big brew haha made about them. But
- 25:02Speaker 1: come the hour they released nothing, Tom, absolutely nothing. And
- 25:10Speaker 1: then all of a sudden they turn around and goes, well,
- 25:12Speaker 1: we can't make a complete waste out of this. Who's
- 25:14Speaker 1: the best looking one of these all? And it was
- 25:15Speaker 1: a lady called Liz bon And right, Liz come with us,
- 25:18Speaker 1: and Liz presented a whole bunch of stuff. And I
- 25:21Speaker 1: want to say, it might be a radio DJ to
- 25:23Speaker 1: this day, or she might show up on she could
- 25:26Speaker 1: be a presenter on TV three for all the hell
- 25:28Speaker 1: I know. But Liz bond and did okay for herself
- 25:30Speaker 1: and the other four Christ knows, who knows. I have
- 25:34Speaker 1: one for you that.
- 25:35Speaker 2: You've never heard of.
- 25:36Speaker 1: Go for have you?
- 25:38Speaker 2: Do you remember a band called Hometown?
- 25:42Speaker 1: Oh Jesus, Tom, just again, I should have went through
- 25:45Speaker 1: me like Hometown.
- 25:48Speaker 2: It's not that far back. It's like twenty thirteen, fourteen,
- 25:50Speaker 2: like you know what I mean. It's not as far
- 25:51Speaker 2: back as the mid nineties or early two thousands.
- 25:54Speaker 1: No, I was there purpose in life.
- 25:56Speaker 2: Their purpose in life was to drive their enemies before them,
- 25:59Speaker 2: and here to them a woman wait, that was coming
- 26:02Speaker 2: the Barbarian No, it was they had a song called
- 26:05Speaker 2: where I.
- 26:06Speaker 1: Belong, Where I Belong? Where did they Belong?
- 26:09Speaker 2: To m listen, there's there's a rake a minute. The
- 26:12Speaker 2: only reason why I remember it is or no and
- 26:15Speaker 2: about it was I became good friends with one of
- 26:18Speaker 2: the band members because I worked with him. And again
- 26:19Speaker 2: you sEH banto, but we've done a load of stuff
- 26:21Speaker 2: together because of the good crack lad from from.
- 26:24Speaker 1: I keep I keep forgetting that we're media personalities. Yeah.
- 26:27Speaker 2: See, this is the thing we can't tread on too
- 26:28Speaker 2: many toes. Dale Cronin is a good lad. Dale was
- 26:31Speaker 2: in it. And Dale I think Dale was one of
- 26:34Speaker 2: the few fellows on Dance with the Stars that got
- 26:36Speaker 2: a perfect tint because he can do a standing backflip
- 26:39Speaker 2: and kind.
- 26:40Speaker 1: You know what I'm gonna tell you, if you can
- 26:41Speaker 1: invert yourself on live TV, you'll find work.
- 26:45Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean, but what was amazing was like
- 26:48Speaker 2: that band had, you know, flown into the mountain many
- 26:52Speaker 2: years before, and I made no bones about not giving
- 26:55Speaker 2: a fuck about it. When I spoked spoke to Dale,
- 26:57Speaker 2: I was like okay, and he was he was laughing
- 26:59Speaker 2: about it.
- 27:00Speaker 1: Man.
- 27:01Speaker 2: You know, we could have gotten it. We could have
- 27:02Speaker 2: gotten it.
- 27:03Speaker 1: Back together rock.
- 27:03Speaker 2: I'm like, I hear you, but you were not for me.
- 27:05Speaker 2: I can tell you. When I was listening to Red
- 27:07Speaker 2: Hot Chili Peppers, I wasn't.
- 27:08Speaker 1: Say, you're so what The best they could have done
- 27:10Speaker 1: was they could have had run out. I was gonna
- 27:12Speaker 1: say they could have run out for the Eurovision. I'm
- 27:14Speaker 1: looking at the Wikipedia here they fucking did they did? Yeah,
- 27:18Speaker 1: one of them anyway. Yeah.
- 27:20Speaker 2: But the what blew my mind was the and we're
- 27:25Speaker 2: joking about it here, you know, the lads off and
- 27:28Speaker 2: fatal deviations and these things. The fans of these are
- 27:33Speaker 2: absolutely I mean it's a religion, like it's a Medigori
- 27:38Speaker 2: religion of these young ones, like I've never like it'd
- 27:42Speaker 2: be a random Wednesday of the Panto and young ones
- 27:47Speaker 2: would have flown and the band had been broke up
- 27:49Speaker 2: for years, and young ones would have flown over from Germany,
- 27:52Speaker 2: stand at the backstage door waiting for Dale to come
- 27:54Speaker 2: out to just sign their stuff from Germany. Like this
- 27:58Speaker 2: was I've never seen. And it's like the fandom I
- 28:02Speaker 2: have I had no idea of, you know, like they've
- 28:05Speaker 2: they're essentially their own version Reddit.
- 28:07Speaker 1: They have.
- 28:08Speaker 2: They're like the Scouts they talk with each other, they
- 28:10Speaker 2: swap tickets, stay, you know, come up with each other's
- 28:13Speaker 2: fan art and stuff like that. And they all they
- 28:17Speaker 2: talk in in in echo chambers about these bands. And
- 28:22Speaker 2: I was like, what I said, dude, you haven't done
- 28:25Speaker 2: a backflip in ten years? What is this about? Overcast?
- 28:29Speaker 2: I don't know, man, he says, it's still they still
- 28:32Speaker 2: keep showing up, and they're like, I just absolutely love you,
- 28:35Speaker 2: like and it just it opened my mind with all
- 28:38Speaker 2: I'm like Christ and there's and it's easy enough to
- 28:41Speaker 2: just for us to forget and stuff and go. These
- 28:44Speaker 2: they would still be knocking on people's doors, finding you know,
- 28:48Speaker 2: strange Croatian women in their headges and stuff like that.
- 28:51Speaker 2: I absolutely love you.
- 28:53Speaker 1: But now and and we risk alienating the female audience
- 28:59Speaker 1: of the Tom and Jerry Show. Scanton all as it
- 29:01Speaker 1: might be. You get a young woman at our formative
- 29:06Speaker 1: years and you have her for life, like you have
- 29:08Speaker 1: that lady through twenty first thirtiths hen parties. You know
- 29:15Speaker 1: you have them.
- 29:16Speaker 2: Like look at Billy Idle, for God's sake, has the
- 29:20Speaker 2: face pulled in about nineteen different directions. He's going back
- 29:23Speaker 2: out on the road again. Like the sixty fifteen and
- 29:28Speaker 2: six year old women are just going to go throw
- 29:30Speaker 2: their bras at this man.
- 29:31Speaker 1: He has any Irish woman in her mid thirties to
- 29:34Speaker 1: early forties that finds himself in Las Vegas and the
- 29:37Speaker 1: fellows are off watching the UFC or whatever, like, where
- 29:40Speaker 1: do you think they're going. I'm not going to the
- 29:42Speaker 1: UFC the young day we went over with the boyfriend
- 29:44Speaker 1: or whatever, and he's going to the UFC. Where do
- 29:46Speaker 1: you think that woman's going. She's going to back three
- 29:48Speaker 1: boys on the strip?
- 29:49Speaker 2: Yeah, have them for life residency at the win or wherever.
- 29:54Speaker 1: This is it? Well, it's a well, it's a it's
- 29:56Speaker 1: a hen party. Who'll we get We'll get this glass
- 29:59Speaker 1: and that was an hometown and we get him to
- 30:01Speaker 1: come around and sing happy and perta. It's only going
- 30:03Speaker 1: to cost us a whole and fifty year. Oh, come on,
- 30:05Speaker 1: let's get it done.
- 30:06Speaker 2: Sounds good.
- 30:07Speaker 1: Sounds good to me. Tom. There you go. Those are
- 30:10Speaker 1: those lads in boyzone, and we wish him well in
- 30:13Speaker 1: the future. Endeavor. We'll forget about those lads for one
- 30:17Speaker 1: week second time, because every week we filter true every
- 30:20Speaker 1: lad going and we find one lad the god damn
- 30:22Speaker 1: it he's the lad. He's not just this ladder, that lad.
- 30:27Speaker 1: He is Tom this lad that.
- 30:33Speaker 2: I don't think we've had a saint. I was trying
- 30:36Speaker 2: to scan my brain that we've done a lot of objects.
- 30:39Speaker 2: We've done people, we've done animals. I don't think we've
- 30:42Speaker 2: done a saint. I think this is our first saint?
- 30:44Speaker 2: Is it?
- 30:45Speaker 1: And who is our first sat?
- 30:46Speaker 2: A first saint is of course one of the patron
- 30:47Speaker 2: saints is of course same Bridget her name with the
- 30:51Speaker 2: pagan goddess of fire, which is kind of cool in
- 30:54Speaker 2: its own way for anybody thinking the name of their
- 30:57Speaker 2: child Bridget. Yes, it is an outrun's name, but it's
- 30:59Speaker 2: say time on a cool effect. It is got as
- 31:02Speaker 2: a fire.
- 31:04Speaker 1: Let me ask you a question. Everybody like Bridget as
- 31:06Speaker 1: you would spell it? How would you spell the top
- 31:08Speaker 1: of your head?
- 31:09Speaker 2: B R I D G E T.
- 31:10Speaker 1: Yeah? Same here, so Bridget b R I G D
- 31:14Speaker 1: G E T.
- 31:15Speaker 2: I was in a TV show called Bridget Name It,
- 31:17Speaker 2: and I still have typed in on many of blurb
- 31:19Speaker 2: but I won't same.
- 31:21Speaker 1: Bridget spells it b R I G I D I did.
- 31:25Speaker 1: I've got no comedy in any of this time. It's
- 31:27Speaker 1: just an observance. She spelled your right.
- 31:29Speaker 2: Well that's the I'm nearly sure that is the Irish version,
- 31:34Speaker 2: which a b r I, so it would be brigate
- 31:36Speaker 2: brig brigid.
- 31:38Speaker 1: Well, nevertheless, she's doing.
- 31:41Speaker 2: A hell of a job, a hell of a job
- 31:44Speaker 2: for anybody wondering, because I've never heard the same bridges.
- 31:47Speaker 1: Where have you been?
- 31:49Speaker 2: She was born back in like ages, back she was born.
- 31:52Speaker 2: I think it was a four fifty in around them times,
- 31:57Speaker 2: Saint Patrick's era, you know what I mean. She was
- 32:00Speaker 2: back in the old days.
- 32:01Speaker 1: She was yeah, back in meantime.
- 32:05Speaker 2: Back in in pagan time. Like her father was actually
- 32:07Speaker 2: a pagan. Mother was a Christian, you know what I mean.
- 32:09Speaker 2: Fair play him across contamination and whatnot. But father wanted
- 32:14Speaker 2: to have brought up a pagan. Of course. The mother
- 32:16Speaker 2: was like, come this new Christian thing. It's a new
- 32:19Speaker 2: Christian vibe. Man, you gotta get on it. Got the
- 32:22Speaker 2: daughter involved.
- 32:22Speaker 1: The dog's crazy to me, ship don't change like you
- 32:24Speaker 1: know what I mean, giving up. I want I want
- 32:26Speaker 1: to I want to put the game in an educated together.
- 32:28Speaker 2: You know, no, No, it's just everything's.
- 32:36Speaker 1: Don't change.
- 32:37Speaker 2: Rough, It's like a circle. It's just it's you know,
- 32:40Speaker 2: everything sick sickly. It all comes around and the bridge's
- 32:45Speaker 2: mother anymy, got her involved the father of a agent
- 32:47Speaker 2: because he's like, no, you got to marry this wealthy
- 32:49Speaker 2: dude up the road as the chieftain and all. Her
- 32:51Speaker 2: father was chieftain of of Leinster, so he was big news.
- 32:55Speaker 2: And she manages to swing it up by apparently yeah,
- 33:00Speaker 2: was Quid saying, he was like, I want to marry
- 33:01Speaker 2: that daughter or she's class. She prayed to God to
- 33:04Speaker 2: make her ugly. God was like, no worries, wake up
- 33:07Speaker 2: next morning, absolute munter. Your man says, I'll pass. The
- 33:11Speaker 2: father's like koan, so be a nun for God's sake,
- 33:15Speaker 2: becomes a nun. Turns out she was an absolute cracker.
- 33:18Speaker 2: A week later, it comes back even better than she was,
- 33:20Speaker 2: even better looking than she was.
- 33:22Speaker 1: She was only temporarily ugly good looking yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 33:26Speaker 1: unless maybe it was just the guys that was put
- 33:28Speaker 1: over her, you know what I mean.
- 33:29Speaker 2: She wasn't actually turned ugly at all. To just how
- 33:31Speaker 2: people force people, I don't know. Let's not get into
- 33:34Speaker 2: the semantics of the scenario, but.
- 33:37Speaker 1: I can't suggest how she would manage that Tom without
- 33:39Speaker 1: being grossly offensive to a great many people. So let's
- 33:41Speaker 1: move on.
- 33:42Speaker 2: Look, it was the four hundreds. What am I saying?
- 33:45Speaker 2: There was a lot of magic around at the time,
- 33:46Speaker 2: That's all I'm saying.
- 33:48Speaker 1: It was like one hundred ten is a two today.
- 33:51Speaker 2: Instagra, Instagram filters. Let's they're creepy things like when you
- 33:55Speaker 2: see him, like, you know what I mean. But the
- 33:59Speaker 2: she went on to be uh she was born to
- 34:02Speaker 2: dog of all places. I mean, that's the only thing
- 34:04Speaker 2: that sticks with me is like imagine the accent, you know,
- 34:08Speaker 2: you know, and then if atron Saint of Ireland ever
- 34:12Speaker 2: you always think of like a West of Ireland, the
- 34:15Speaker 2: soft rolling off and seeing things like that sounds windy.
- 34:19Speaker 2: Do you know? We were there and we're praying to
- 34:21Speaker 2: God and do just absolutely lovely and then all of
- 34:24Speaker 2: a sudden, now you're going up done dalk.
- 34:28Speaker 1: I will say, Tom, I don't want to I don't
- 34:29Speaker 1: want to hijacket I don't want to hijackie here. But
- 34:32Speaker 1: when I was young, like coming up, we would always
- 34:36Speaker 1: be out drinking, maybe in character to the Dog or
- 34:39Speaker 1: any of these places, and like you know, their final
- 34:40Speaker 1: looking lasses there. Don't get me wrong, but then the
- 34:43Speaker 1: bus from Neuri would come down and that would be there.
- 34:48Speaker 1: Like it literally was like a sea change in the
- 34:51Speaker 1: nightclub when the Neurry lassies landed down, because I would
- 34:54Speaker 1: see the best looking women you've ever seen in your life,
- 34:58Speaker 1: just all of a sudden, just walking. It was like
- 35:00Speaker 1: time stopped. It was incredible. And it was only in
- 35:02Speaker 1: later years that I learned what was happening. Because up
- 35:06Speaker 1: across the border, you know again late nineties, what can
- 35:10Speaker 1: I tell you, they had Boots, Semi Kim, miss Selfridge,
- 35:15Speaker 1: They had all these shops and stores that were not
- 35:17Speaker 1: available side of the border, so hers like downside of
- 35:20Speaker 1: the border, the lassies were like rubbed and pseudo cream
- 35:23Speaker 1: on their faces and going out up north that had
- 35:26Speaker 1: like all sorts of push up bras and make up
- 35:30Speaker 1: and like all the all the Sassinock tools to make
- 35:34Speaker 1: a good look. And down here we were just trying
- 35:37Speaker 1: dressing in cyclot continue.
- 35:41Speaker 2: The only thing I will say is that Lasi knew
- 35:43Speaker 2: what you were getting. You know what I mean, your
- 35:45Speaker 2: team deal with his theories Decepticon, they're because they are
- 35:48Speaker 2: just the same women. It's just one.
- 35:50Speaker 1: Happens that from the lassies from New he would come
- 35:55Speaker 1: into the oasis and they be wearing crop tops, and
- 35:57Speaker 1: we'd never seen a crop top in early life. Lord, Yes,
- 36:03Speaker 1: I gotta tell you I could talk at length about a.
- 36:06Speaker 2: Patron saint of poet's midwife, newborn's, Irish nuns, fugitives, blacksmith's, dairymaids, boatman, chicken, farmers,
- 36:13Speaker 2: cattle scholars, cattle, cattle scholar scholars, sailors. Yeah, cattle scholars,
- 36:22Speaker 2: cattle common scholars.
- 36:24Speaker 1: Com grammar is important here, but I gotta tell you
- 36:27Speaker 1: she's the patron saint. The cattle scholars love her even more.
- 36:30Speaker 2: Brother, Is it's somebody who writes about cattle or is
- 36:33Speaker 2: it just an actual you know, yea his nose like
- 36:37Speaker 2: some Jane's Joyce looking cow. So she the big thing
- 36:49Speaker 2: is she went on, So she opened anyway, She built
- 36:53Speaker 2: a church in Kilear, and that was where she was
- 36:55Speaker 2: originally buried. But they exhumed her and brought her up
- 36:58Speaker 2: to bury her with Saint Patrick above and Patrick up
- 37:01Speaker 2: in uh down, where else would it be?
- 37:05Speaker 1: Well, you know what I got to upward there's a semicham.
- 37:08Speaker 2: Exactly, you know what I mean? Series probably getting the
- 37:10Speaker 2: lips lips done and every much was up there.
- 37:12Speaker 1: Are you telling me that our best saints are buried
- 37:16Speaker 1: up to north.
- 37:17Speaker 2: Here's the thing, it's not even Oliver right, because what
- 37:19Speaker 2: happened was h king King, Yeah, you.
- 37:24Speaker 1: Know what happened.
- 37:24Speaker 2: You know what we like to divide a person up
- 37:26Speaker 2: on the day and then what happens is they she
- 37:32Speaker 2: wasn't to be she was absolute grand.
- 37:33Speaker 1: Where she was.
- 37:35Speaker 2: But the founder of product King Henry then whatever the
- 37:39Speaker 2: seventh we'll call him, I don't know, the fat one
- 37:42Speaker 2: who wanted them to get divorced.
- 37:45Speaker 1: That's yeah, Henry the eighth.
- 37:46Speaker 2: Henry the eighth invented.
- 37:48Speaker 1: Don't ask me a second question about the English monarchy.
- 37:50Speaker 1: I'm tapped out, I know.
- 37:52Speaker 2: And essentially he turned the said a siege on Irish
- 37:57Speaker 2: and everything to do with being Catholic. And they went
- 38:01Speaker 2: to the exhumter again. This time they took our skull,
- 38:05Speaker 2: but three Irish knights brought it to a safe haven
- 38:08Speaker 2: of Catholicism in Lisbon, well Loomiar, Portugal, which is just
- 38:13Speaker 2: outside Lisbon.
- 38:14Speaker 1: And for a second there time I thought you were
- 38:17Speaker 1: talking about Lisbon, I would say Belfast.
- 38:20Speaker 2: No, is not, absolutely is not. Now when you see
- 38:25Speaker 2: the flags, there's very few Saint Bridget's cross flags of
- 38:32Speaker 2: outside Lisbon.
- 38:33Speaker 1: On the subject to I'm sorry, we're about to march on.
- 38:35Speaker 2: Now, sim marching now, Jesus, before you notice.
- 38:38Speaker 1: The Oh no no, I'm going to save that to
- 38:40Speaker 1: you know, that's my July here. Si Bridget's crosses simt
- 38:47Speaker 1: Brigide's crosses are an industry in Ireland, which is brigid,
- 38:51Speaker 1: which is which is across the crucifix of Our of
- 38:54Speaker 1: our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, fashion out of reeds
- 38:56Speaker 1: and rushes from the from the bogs. Okay, so if
- 39:00Speaker 1: you didn't grow up in a bug heavy region, you
- 39:02Speaker 1: probably didn't make these. Are you important? Important rushes? I
- 39:05Speaker 1: don't know. I could never make one, Tom, could you not?
- 39:09Speaker 2: In a face? The out one made one? We called
- 39:12Speaker 2: down the other day. She one made it was perfect,
- 39:14Speaker 2: of course, and she was like should we all sit
- 39:16Speaker 2: down and make it sure? And like the little fellow's
- 39:18Speaker 2: got nackad. Sure of course he made a sword, you
- 39:20Speaker 2: know what I mean?
- 39:21Speaker 1: And that's it.
- 39:22Speaker 2: But I was kind of looking going, that's that's about
- 39:24Speaker 2: as far as I could go. This is I cannot.
- 39:26Speaker 2: I don't have the Dexteritian in order the patients to
- 39:29Speaker 2: put together Saint Bridges cross.
- 39:31Speaker 1: Well, I want to tell you, Tom, I want to
- 39:33Speaker 1: tell you one thing then. And I tried up while
- 39:35Speaker 1: I was in sixth class in primary school to make
- 39:37Speaker 1: Saint Bridges crosses, and I got upset about it, Like
- 39:40Speaker 1: I got real sad on several occasions that I could
- 39:43Speaker 1: not pull off of some bridges cross But as I
- 39:47Speaker 1: grew in life and things go on, it come to
- 39:50Speaker 1: find out there's like a thing that you know, such
- 39:53Speaker 1: as low fine motor skills. Come to come to find
- 39:58Speaker 1: out we're like something very fiddley like that would be
- 40:01Speaker 1: beyond the child. And I looked into that and I
- 40:04Speaker 1: was like, would that also manifested itself? And an incredibly
- 40:07Speaker 1: poor handwriting in primary school? And absolutely that would manifest
- 40:10Speaker 1: itself and incredibly poor handwriting school skills in primary school?
- 40:14Speaker 1: And I'm like, huh hmm, okay, all right, well it's
- 40:16Speaker 1: kind of thing we pick up on these days, but
- 40:18Speaker 1: not back then. But here we are, this life we.
- 40:20Speaker 2: Live, and what did you need it picked up on for?
- 40:23Speaker 1: Wouldn't you? I told that I wouldn't get chastised in
- 40:26Speaker 1: school for being a fucking tick that couldn't make us
- 40:28Speaker 1: some bridges crossed, didn't a wee bit of fucking sympathy
- 40:31Speaker 1: would have went a long way in affirmative years.
- 40:32Speaker 2: And where would you?
- 40:33Speaker 1: Maybe I wouldn't ended up on the comedy stage ten years.
- 40:35Speaker 2: Later, and maybe you mightn't have been. I thought, as hard,
- 40:38Speaker 2: do you know what I mean? If Rock he got
- 40:39Speaker 2: it all his own way too, he might have become
- 40:41Speaker 2: a champion. God Almighty, you want to just what you
- 40:44Speaker 2: want to be coddled because you were shit at making
- 40:47Speaker 2: same bridges crossed.
- 40:48Speaker 1: I gotta tell you that if that had been grown
- 40:52Speaker 1: as poor fine motor skills the time, you know, we
- 40:55Speaker 1: could have leaned into that a little bit. Regardless of
- 40:57Speaker 1: which you could have.
- 40:58Speaker 2: Done, have done what I did. And I showed my
- 41:00Speaker 2: engineering skills, and I went and got a stapler, and
- 41:03Speaker 2: I staple that old bastard together and didn't tie anything,
- 41:06Speaker 2: held it up as proud as punch, got it for it.
- 41:09Speaker 2: But at the same time it worked, it became a
- 41:12Speaker 2: same bridge as cross. I'd staple the entire fucking thing together.
- 41:15Speaker 1: Well, teacher held my teacher instead, come help her fist
- 41:19Speaker 1: up to my nose and said, you smell dead men
- 41:21Speaker 1: of that Go make get horses for courses.
- 41:25Speaker 2: Hey, before we wrap up in Saint Bridges, I think
- 41:27Speaker 2: we just have well. Wrapping up is a pointedive thing
- 41:31Speaker 2: to say, because if anybody's wondering, well, what makes her saying?
- 41:34Speaker 2: You know the resid she sound. She was lovely, she's
- 41:36Speaker 2: very good to people. She opened the church on the
- 41:39Speaker 2: behest of Saint Bridges or Saint Patrick. To get the
- 41:42Speaker 2: land for the church. She asked the local chiefment for
- 41:44Speaker 2: the land. He was a bollocks, he said, tell a
- 41:48Speaker 2: fair pig, and she went grand. She went home, prayed
- 41:51Speaker 2: to God that he'd be a good man when she
- 41:52Speaker 2: turns up the next day turned up, he went, all right,
- 41:54Speaker 2: look a bit of land I'll give you. It's as
- 41:56Speaker 2: big as how much your cloak can cover.
- 41:58Speaker 1: Oh should remember this.
- 41:59Speaker 2: So she turned around. Uh huh, I got your son
- 42:02Speaker 2: turned around. No plan informission, no onboard planola throughout her
- 42:07Speaker 2: cloak about twenty acres. That's a magic cloak you're talking about.
- 42:12Speaker 1: That that's that's that's saintly behavior right there.
- 42:15Speaker 2: I mean, there's a handful of things. If anybody wants
- 42:18Speaker 2: to go all the way back to our beatification of
- 42:22Speaker 2: Dolly Parton, you'll learn all about what it becomes means
- 42:25Speaker 2: to become to a saint. Saint Bridget pulling off a
- 42:27Speaker 2: move with her cloak. I'm sorry, that's an a.
- 42:31Speaker 1: But the most you know, like, that's that sort of
- 42:37Speaker 1: hindlton that altars with planning informission. I gotta tell you
- 42:40Speaker 1: wreaks a corruption.
- 42:42Speaker 2: And I'm okay with it.
- 42:43Speaker 1: Your Tom.
- 42:45Speaker 2: The church itself, she spotted it. It was taxific if.
- 42:48Speaker 1: She turned If she turned around Tom and was like,
- 42:50Speaker 1: I want my monastery to have a dormer window and
- 42:53Speaker 1: they're like, no dormer windows. And she was like, don't
- 42:55Speaker 1: you mean normal windows? And then all of a sudden
- 42:57Speaker 1: I had normal windows. I wouldn't think that she's he's
- 43:00Speaker 1: in Jedi. She just waved her hand in front of behavior.
- 43:04Speaker 1: But I think that I think that'd be like, you know,
- 43:05Speaker 1: greasing a few palms.
- 43:07Speaker 2: Nothing around with it, and Palm Sunday is another day
- 43:09Speaker 2: that we should look forward to bring it around. But
- 43:11Speaker 2: the most important thing about Same Bridget for us in
- 43:13Speaker 2: the modern climate is that thanks to the government, and
- 43:17Speaker 2: I supposed they had to put it somewhere to give
- 43:19Speaker 2: us another another bank holiday, and they gave it in
- 43:24Speaker 2: celebration of Same Bridget, and we're all happy. I'd make
- 43:30Speaker 2: as many Same Bridgegs crosses as you want with a stapler.
- 43:33Speaker 1: And I gotta tell you, if it wasn't for the
- 43:35Speaker 1: Bank Holiday of Same Bridget, I would not have broken
- 43:38Speaker 1: my Lenten fast to not drink all year. Here we are.
- 43:43Speaker 1: Can't let Saint Bridget's Bank Holiday go by without a
- 43:47Speaker 1: couple of Barley pops. I'll tell you that much, right, lead,
- 43:53Speaker 1: And I also want to I want to say, like,
- 43:55Speaker 1: you know, I'm terribly sorry that we came to Saint Bridget.
- 43:57Speaker 1: You know, we recorded it on Saint Bridget's so you
- 44:00Speaker 1: won't hear it until after the fact. Hey, what can
- 44:03Speaker 1: I tell you? We'll give you a full refund. What
- 44:05Speaker 1: do you want me to do?
- 44:07Speaker 2: Look, it's all right. It passed by most people without
- 44:10Speaker 2: even realizing. Now look back retrospectively and go poor one
- 44:13Speaker 2: out of the forty on the pavement for Same Bridget.
- 44:16Speaker 2: She passed away at seventy five years of age, and
- 44:19Speaker 2: like five twenty something, I mean seventy five counties back then,
- 44:25Speaker 2: do you know what I mean? That's amazing that she
- 44:28Speaker 2: got to seventy five. That's like one hundred and forty
- 44:30Speaker 2: two in today's money. You know that's class. So that's
- 44:34Speaker 2: in itself, it's safely other. Jar. I think we got away.
- 44:38Speaker 2: We got away in a good form and you've been
- 44:41Speaker 2: boiling on the edge the pot. The pot cover is
- 44:43Speaker 2: just you. I've noticed that you've been a bit sparky
- 44:46Speaker 2: though through the whole thing. That sauce is kicking in
- 44:48Speaker 2: nicely and I like it.
- 44:49Speaker 1: But that's what you get with McBride here is like,
- 44:52Speaker 1: you know, he'll throw out stuff that like you're more
- 44:57Speaker 1: than welcome to take offense to it, but appreciate the
- 45:00Speaker 1: there's no offense meant, do you know what I mean?
- 45:03Speaker 1: I've had that. I've had that throughout. But I'll tell
- 45:05Speaker 1: you what it is with me when I have drinking
- 45:06Speaker 1: meat Tom, as I do right now. I'm always on
- 45:10Speaker 1: the search for entertainment. I want to have a couple
- 45:13Speaker 1: of drinks and enjoy a thing. I want to you know,
- 45:16Speaker 1: I want to be amused. I'm always done for something
- 45:20Speaker 1: on TV or something to go there or something and whatnot?
- 45:23Speaker 1: Right Tom, and like you know, finding what is the
- 45:25Speaker 1: perfect thing to attend? Well, shit, that could be the
- 45:30Speaker 1: subject of our brother.
- 45:33Speaker 2: Don't stop.
- 45:36Speaker 1: Do you do you know of any forthcoming events or whatnot? That,
- 45:42Speaker 1: but the man could amuse himself.
- 45:44Speaker 2: I'm sure there's plenty. To be fair, there's loads. I
- 45:47Speaker 2: don't keep my finger on the pulse of what's going
- 45:49Speaker 2: on around the country, and I'm brutal in that sense.
- 45:51Speaker 2: I'm very self involved when it comes to that, because,
- 45:55Speaker 2: as it happens, Jir I myself have a very interesting
- 45:59Speaker 2: thing coming up that's going to pretty much take over
- 46:01Speaker 2: there from the summer onwards to the end of the
- 46:03Speaker 2: year for me. And that's my brand new tour show
- 46:06Speaker 2: that I'm pretty happy has taken shape and with about
- 46:10Speaker 2: an hour of brand new.
- 46:11Speaker 1: Material, Tom o'my Live Life Seriously. Tom o'money is going
- 46:19Speaker 1: back on tour in twenty twenty five.
- 46:21Speaker 2: Back on the road, new tires on the car, will
- 46:23Speaker 2: travel have jokes, cannot wait to get back. With dates
- 46:27Speaker 2: locking in as we have, there's already even a couple
- 46:29Speaker 2: up for sale. I just have to send off two
- 46:32Speaker 2: more things to the crowd tonight and then there'll be
- 46:34Speaker 2: another two up for sale. We're going to aim for
- 46:36Speaker 2: as many venues as possible around the country. Before you know,
- 46:41Speaker 2: the guards catch me for no tax one or the other.
- 46:44Speaker 1: It's Tom. Let me tell you something right in the
- 46:47Speaker 1: humor I'm in right now, the idea is sitting down
- 46:49Speaker 1: and watching an hour comedy just suits me down to
- 46:52Speaker 1: the ground. Absolutely. That sounds like a wonderful way to
- 46:55Speaker 1: pass an afternoon, especially you know if it comes to
- 46:59Speaker 1: a town new or me. But how can you offer
- 47:01Speaker 1: me an assurance tow o money that your tour is
- 47:04Speaker 1: coming to a town near me?
- 47:05Speaker 2: Well, right now, already I've locked it in two. We're
- 47:09Speaker 2: in all four provinces, the major cities of all four problems.
- 47:12Speaker 2: So that's going to cover a lot of while we're
- 47:14Speaker 2: in Cork or in Galway. We're in Belfast, we're in Dublin,
- 47:18Speaker 2: but we're also going to turn up in Wexford, Water, Tipperary,
- 47:23Speaker 2: Carlo Ennis of Claire, the Clear One. We're going to
- 47:27Speaker 2: be a Mayo and a couple more around the Midlands.
- 47:30Speaker 2: There's definitely going to be one in Derry. And you
- 47:33Speaker 2: know what, I doubt that there won't be a down
- 47:36Speaker 2: that there isn't one damn fucking near to you. I'm
- 47:39Speaker 2: trying to bring this. I'll probably show up in your
- 47:41Speaker 2: sitting room without even you asking, with a microphone and
- 47:44Speaker 2: a backdrop, and just start in front. Just kick the
- 47:48Speaker 2: TV over and just start. I will do an hour
- 47:51Speaker 2: comedy into your face. Whether you want it or not,
- 47:54Speaker 2: it's happening. It's happening. Everybody is getting it.
- 47:58Speaker 1: But Tom, here's the thing. Okay, I've I've been a
- 48:01Speaker 1: long time listener to the podcast. Heck, I've been a
- 48:05Speaker 1: participant you have. So what I've come to expect from
- 48:09Speaker 1: you is a certain tone of voice, in a certain
- 48:12Speaker 1: style of comedy. I've known it, I've loved it. I've
- 48:15Speaker 1: been a part of it for several years. How can
- 48:17Speaker 1: you offer me in assurance that what I see in
- 48:21Speaker 1: here when I go to see you live is, you know,
- 48:26Speaker 1: not some strange new crazy you know, drifty fifty kind
- 48:31Speaker 1: of shit. Don't you worry if you don't follow me
- 48:33Speaker 1: on usual. So to the platforms, you'll see what happens
- 48:36Speaker 1: to mostly tails from the front row. You'll find a
- 48:38Speaker 1: bunch of those.
- 48:39Speaker 2: I'm sure I should collate them all together, but tails
- 48:41Speaker 2: from the front row I call them, and everybody gets
- 48:44Speaker 2: a lamp based. But if you're even wondering.
- 48:46Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 48:47Speaker 2: I mean, he's funny on the pod, but I don't
- 48:49Speaker 2: know when I got to see him. Well, by the
- 48:51Speaker 2: time this hits your ears, I e tomorrow night from
- 48:55Speaker 2: recording it, we I will have finished the fourth pass,
- 49:02Speaker 2: fourth pass of my sprand new special, which will be
- 49:06Speaker 2: landing probably within the next week to ten days. We'll
- 49:10Speaker 2: be landing on YouTube free of charge for you to

- 49:16Speaker 2: to whe the appetite and you'll go, Jesus Christ, I'm
- 49:19Speaker 2: on board with everything this lad is saying. I'd love more.
- 49:22Speaker 2: It's a perfect, perfect little sniff of the flower to go.
- 49:27Speaker 3: Yeah, you're telling me, Tom that there's a free special
- 49:32Speaker 3: going up from on YouTube from last year, and if
- 49:34Speaker 3: I like the sound of that, there's no good reason
- 49:37Speaker 3: I won't like this upcoming to her.
- 49:39Speaker 2: It's exactly along the same. Well, do you know what,
- 49:41Speaker 2: even this one's a bit wilder. I've pushed the boat
- 49:44Speaker 2: a silliness, and I mean right silliness. I've pushed it
- 49:48Speaker 2: out on this one where if you get on board
- 49:51Speaker 2: from the get go, you're in for a treat. I
- 49:54Speaker 2: would come with a drink in your hand, is what
- 49:56Speaker 2: I'm saying.
- 49:57Speaker 1: And Tom, can you assure the listeners here that your
- 50:00Speaker 1: comedy special coming up now. The tour that you're going
- 50:03Speaker 1: on will bring peace to the Middle East.
- 50:06Speaker 2: There's absolutely no doubt peace to the Middle East. How
- 50:08Speaker 2: about the Eastern Europe?
- 50:10Speaker 1: How about how about it will bring peace to the
- 50:14Speaker 1: Middle East, the.
- 50:18Speaker 2: Middle East. Of the lads in Congo will put down
- 50:23Speaker 2: their arms right now. They will just chill when they
- 50:26Speaker 2: see it. They're like, this is well worth a watch,
- 50:28Speaker 2: at least for an hour. Let's have an amastice. Let's
- 50:31Speaker 2: just chill out. This will be like the Germans and
- 50:33Speaker 2: the English kicking of football around on Christmas Day. Everybody
- 50:36Speaker 2: will just chill and go. All right, this fella's completely
- 50:39Speaker 2: wired to the fucking moon. Let's get on board with
- 50:42Speaker 2: this lad. In fact, let's get in and get him
- 50:44Speaker 2: a plane, fly him over. He'll do a comedy special
- 50:46Speaker 2: over here as well. And I will I will. If
- 50:49Speaker 2: they need me to go, I will go flack jacking on.
- 50:52Speaker 2: I'm hot to trot.
- 50:53Speaker 1: Well, tom, let me ask you question. Speaking of hot
- 50:56Speaker 1: to trot, let's talk about hot to go. H O
- 50:58Speaker 1: dt o g oh chapel rowan right there. In case
- 51:02Speaker 1: you didn't know who I was singing about last time.
- 51:05Speaker 1: She put a show on in Dublin. The tickets were
- 51:08Speaker 1: like a one hundred and twenty euros apiece. Can you
- 51:11Speaker 1: assure me, Tom to settler Owd that you won't be
- 51:15Speaker 1: breaking anybody's bank when we come to.
- 51:18Speaker 2: God, it doesn't matter, It doesn't matter how big us
- 51:22Speaker 2: in this podcast ever get here. I will spend the
- 51:25Speaker 2: evening breaking confry blocks just to just to bring keep
- 51:29Speaker 2: myself on a level even blue collar keel so working
- 51:34Speaker 2: class blue collar folk. You know, I'm not going to
- 51:36Speaker 2: be hitting your heart. Between myself and the venues. We're
- 51:39Speaker 2: never going to get beyond twenty two euro That's about
- 51:42Speaker 2: as hot as it's gonna get because that covers all bases.
- 51:45Speaker 1: That's not even the price of the cinema. My god, horr,
- 51:48Speaker 1: are you making money?
- 51:49Speaker 2: I know, I know, I know, I know, but I
- 51:51Speaker 2: feel bad about it.
- 51:52Speaker 1: We got it.
- 51:53Speaker 2: Look, we put in the calculations and I figure if
- 51:55Speaker 2: I make my own sandwiches and bring it with me
- 51:57Speaker 2: no matter where I go in the country, but I
- 52:00Speaker 2: possibly green, you know what I mean. I can make
- 52:03Speaker 2: it pay just enough so I can bring my comedy
- 52:05Speaker 2: two people. That's really all that matters to me.
- 52:09Speaker 1: We'll tell him you make a compelling argument, my friend.
- 52:11Speaker 1: But like one sort of deal breaker is if I
- 52:14Speaker 1: show up at any of these gigs, is there a
- 52:17Speaker 1: chance that you get two for the price of one?
- 52:20Speaker 1: Is there a chance that you also get a little
- 52:22Speaker 1: bit of McBride in the middle of all that.
- 52:24Speaker 2: There's an absolutely whether he likes it or not, I'm
- 52:27Speaker 2: going to drag him by the ankles, kicking and screaming.
- 52:29Speaker 2: McBride is going to be there. I can promise you
- 52:32Speaker 2: that you have to have you Look, you have to
- 52:35Speaker 2: have one with the other. It's like look, it's like
- 52:37Speaker 2: jam and Butler. They have to go together, tng, tongue
- 52:41Speaker 2: and groove. You can't have a tongue and not a
- 52:43Speaker 2: groove when it comes to floor, and if you had nothing,
- 52:45Speaker 2: you'd have nothing but tongues. There's no use. Before you know,
- 52:48Speaker 2: your floor be a baggish shit and it would never
- 52:50Speaker 2: clip together. You have to have it. So, yes, of
- 52:53Speaker 2: course McBride is on board. He may not fully agree
- 52:56Speaker 2: with it yet, but I promise.
- 52:58Speaker 1: There might be a few terms and conditions lie to
- 53:00Speaker 1: a tom if I if it takes place, if it
- 53:03Speaker 1: takes place within a very very certain one, I promise
- 53:07Speaker 1: traveled and I'm comfortable with.
- 53:08Speaker 2: I promise that there will be adult nappies just in
- 53:11Speaker 2: case McBride has to ship himself before he goes out stage.
- 53:14Speaker 2: He would be fully, fully covered and you'll see just
- 53:17Speaker 2: an expression coming over his face of happiness and then yeah,
- 53:20Speaker 2: I'll have to change him immediately afterwards. But it's all right.
- 53:23Speaker 2: I'm not that far from it. But if people want
- 53:25Speaker 2: to buy tickets, just go to Tom Mandy dot com,
- 53:27Speaker 2: go to the gig section and they'll be there right now.
- 53:30Speaker 2: The early doors ones are up. Then as you'll hear
