- 3:06Speaker 1: we call the weekly what have you?
- 3:10Speaker 3: We have.
- 3:11Speaker 2: We avoid political things for the most part, and while
- 3:14Speaker 2: this may end up being the bullet point is political,
- 3:18Speaker 2: it ain't gonna be political.
- 3:20Speaker 1: Okay, but you you know, don't come out as in
- 3:22Speaker 1: the comments over this one, folks, or do like you know,
- 3:27Speaker 1: but it ain't that kind of thing. It is everybody's
- 3:31Speaker 1: favorite president.
- 3:31Speaker 2: Tom, Yeah, do you know what you could say favorite,
- 3:35Speaker 2: whether you actually like him or not.
- 3:36Speaker 3: You could just say favorite, because do you know is that.
- 3:40Speaker 1: Thing it's like, well, well, well if it isn't my
- 3:42Speaker 1: favorite president, it is our man in the White House,
- 3:46Speaker 1: the ever expanding White House, it must be said.
- 3:48Speaker 3: Ever expended size the House.
- 3:51Speaker 1: The fucker Jesus Christ is mister Donald Trump, who will
- 3:54Speaker 1: be paying us a visit in early September over here
- 3:57Speaker 1: in little old Ireland. He's gonna come over for a
- 4:00Speaker 1: two day visit to Ireland on his way doubtless to
- 4:05Speaker 1: some important seminar across the world where he will broke
- 4:08Speaker 1: or peace steals, the likes of which have never been seen.
- 4:10Speaker 1: But you know, he's just gonna have a stop off
- 4:13Speaker 1: in Ireland for two days now, Tom and he visited
- 4:17Speaker 1: Dignantary to Ireland is welcome here as long as he
- 4:20Speaker 1: has a wee bit of manners, which mister Trump is.
- 4:25Speaker 2: Sands manners. He's an ignorant bollocks what he is? If
- 4:32Speaker 2: ever there was a fucking ignorant bollocks. The only thing,
- 4:35Speaker 2: the only thing I appreciate about Trump is I don't
- 4:38Speaker 2: like I've never liked the single American president.
- 4:40Speaker 3: They all seem like a rats. But at least you
- 4:42Speaker 3: can look at him and go, that's a rat, and
- 4:45Speaker 3: he goes, I'm a rat.
- 4:46Speaker 2: When he speaks, he just sounds exactly like you imagine
- 4:50Speaker 2: they all are behind the scenes.
- 4:52Speaker 1: It's it's the kind of thing that I'm going to
- 4:54Speaker 1: tell you, Tom, he's an awful ignorant man and he
- 4:56Speaker 1: runs rough shot over everybody. Witty gets a load of us.
- 5:02Speaker 3: Yeah, you know if he thinks we're going.
- 5:04Speaker 1: To be putting up with such ignorance, but he will
- 5:05Speaker 1: be visiting the West of Ireland. Tom. He has a
- 5:08Speaker 1: golf course in Dunbeg, he does, and lord knows he's
- 5:13Speaker 1: he's not gonna come over and sit and have manners
- 5:15Speaker 1: and have a cup of tea in Arson Eucter r
- 5:16Speaker 1: On when he can go to his own hotel and
- 5:19Speaker 1: have the people of Dunbeg who have benefited from the
- 5:23Speaker 1: business that he has done in the area, kisses whole.
- 5:27Speaker 3: Yeah, well it is going to happen.
- 5:28Speaker 2: And you know they've been the hole pulling on the
- 5:29Speaker 2: pints behind the counters and all these things. Although I'll
- 5:33Speaker 2: be saying that I can never I'm not saying teetotler
- 5:36Speaker 2: is a bad thing. I appreciate a fellow who's had
- 5:40Speaker 2: to come off this sallus. I appreciate a fellow who
- 5:43Speaker 2: is a pioneer all his life right.
- 5:46Speaker 3: Never.
- 5:48Speaker 2: You know, it's like somebody telling me about being a
- 5:52Speaker 2: dog person. I'm not big into. I can't work that
- 5:54Speaker 2: one out either. If you got bitten by a dog,
- 5:57Speaker 2: like I'm saying Trump, you don't drink, you don't drink,
- 6:02Speaker 2: no drink, Yeah, for no reason. No, I know his
- 6:06Speaker 2: own leader is his brother. I think was hard on
- 6:09Speaker 2: this us. I think, yes, you know you're coming to Ireland.
- 6:13Speaker 3: Have an old point.
- 6:14Speaker 1: You know, I wonder would even drink a point? Again
- 6:16Speaker 1: is zero zero?
- 6:18Speaker 3: He wouldn't.
- 6:19Speaker 2: Sure.
- 6:19Speaker 3: I don't think he drinks water, that's the thing.
- 6:21Speaker 1: No, I mean then look at respect to the gentleman.
- 6:25Speaker 1: He doesn't look like he's a very well hydrated individual.
- 6:28Speaker 1: But Tom, it is our duty as a country to
- 6:31Speaker 1: look after this fucking clurican for a couple of days.
- 6:35Speaker 1: And he's stopping off at his hotel and he's gonna
- 6:37Speaker 1: glad hand with the people are doing beg. We're like Donald, myman,
- 6:42Speaker 1: you have their money already. Okay, you don't need to
- 6:44Speaker 1: suck up to the people of doing Beg. They're they're
- 6:47Speaker 1: they're witcha if you want to curry favor with the
- 6:51Speaker 1: rest of Ireland. I wonder what we can help mister
- 6:54Speaker 1: Trump with with his itinerary. Tom, what do you think
- 6:57Speaker 1: we should send Trump to do while in Ireland.
- 7:01Speaker 2: It's got two days, it's got two days, and let's
- 7:03Speaker 2: give him the Chopper Air Force two whatever it's called.
- 7:06Speaker 3: We can go. Okay, So anywhere he can fifty traffic
- 7:08Speaker 3: is not an issue. No, not an issue. Nothing.
- 7:10Speaker 2: You can't say all can't get there. It's the size
- 7:12Speaker 2: of a small state. Let's be honest with you, you know
- 7:14Speaker 2: what I mean. So he can pretty much get anywhere.
- 7:17Speaker 2: And I was thinking, like, you gotta, let's be honest.
- 7:20Speaker 2: We've all seen the map that says that's Ireland in red,
- 7:25Speaker 2: or Ireland and white. And then the one big giant
- 7:27Speaker 2: county down in the south is in red and it
- 7:30Speaker 2: says Cork, rest of Ireland. And I think, look, we
- 7:35Speaker 2: mocked Cork enough boat.
- 7:37Speaker 1: I don't think we mocked them half of them.
- 7:39Speaker 3: No we don't. We mark we mock them with that.
- 7:41Speaker 2: But I think to be some crack to put Trump
- 7:46Speaker 2: in Cork for the day or for a morning at
- 7:48Speaker 2: the very least.
- 7:49Speaker 1: That's every everybody on the rant goes to Dublin and
- 7:53Speaker 1: high fives at College Green and all this kind of thing.
- 7:56Speaker 1: Cork now we're talking.
- 7:58Speaker 2: You see, he'll get like he'd get in. You see,
- 8:01Speaker 2: there won't be There won't be the level of exclusivity
- 8:03Speaker 2: in Cork because you're not in Cork, and especially if
- 8:06Speaker 2: you're not from Cork, you're not in at all.
- 8:09Speaker 1: Kings and queens have gone to Cork, and.
- 8:13Speaker 2: Queen Queen Elizabeth a Lord of Mercy on her she
- 8:16Speaker 2: went around the English market.
- 8:17Speaker 3: I think that'll be great.
- 8:18Speaker 2: Your man is such apparently quite a German fobe too,
- 8:21Speaker 2: so I don't know how he'd be with like people
- 8:23Speaker 2: pawing the bread and going have a bit of door.
- 8:25Speaker 3: Come on here, Donald, to the fish corner.
- 8:31Speaker 2: Come on Donald, Oh my god, this place is disgusting.
- 8:36Speaker 3: You want to see the rest of the country. Donald
- 8:37Speaker 3: is the best of This is the best of it.
- 8:39Speaker 1: That's actually, that's not a bad idea to him, because
- 8:41Speaker 1: if you get Cork, you know, if you get Cork,
- 8:44Speaker 1: you know, so go so goes to the garden, goes
- 8:47Speaker 1: to businesses. They used to say it, so goes Cork.
- 8:49Speaker 1: You know, Well, we'll curry favor you with everywhere that
- 8:52Speaker 1: is in Dublin.
- 8:53Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, But he's got it, he's got it.
- 8:56Speaker 2: I think there's obscure parts. I mean, you could send
- 8:58Speaker 2: the fucker to the barney Stone, but I think you.
- 9:00Speaker 2: I think he'd be too big to fucking lean back
- 9:01Speaker 2: to lick the thing. I honestly, I don't think he'd
- 9:04Speaker 2: fit down the slot gets the Blarney stone.
- 9:06Speaker 3: But I mean, assuming we get a little bit of
- 9:09Speaker 3: time with him in Cork, I wouldn't mind him going up.
- 9:11Speaker 1: But then Tom would respect kiss the blarney stone. The
- 9:13Speaker 1: last thing that kind needs is more talk.
- 9:15Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, I think so.
- 9:17Speaker 1: I think is there a stone that he kiss that
- 9:18Speaker 1: hushes you up a week?
- 9:19Speaker 2: But maybe perhaps I think send him up, to send
- 9:22Speaker 2: him up the north side, up to Hillbilize and get
- 9:24Speaker 2: some fried chicken into you know.
- 9:26Speaker 1: What I mean.
- 9:27Speaker 2: I mean, because he'd have to shut the fuck up
- 9:30Speaker 2: about every other chicken place on the planet. I don't
- 9:32Speaker 2: want to hear about Popeye. I don't want to hear
- 9:33Speaker 2: about KFC. Have yourself some hillbilly's chicken game changer. But
- 9:37Speaker 2: let's get him out of Cork and fuck your We
- 9:40Speaker 2: could do the you know, the the lacky thing and
- 9:43Speaker 2: go let's go see, let's do the tommajerry and push
- 9:46Speaker 2: him into push him into my russ limebrick and you know,
- 9:50Speaker 2: scare the fucking life out of him. Like but look,
- 9:53Speaker 2: he's here. We don't mind his money. And one thing
- 9:56Speaker 2: as Irish people do is we're happy to rifle through
- 9:57Speaker 2: your pockets if you willing to spend it.
- 9:59Speaker 1: Well shadow over there.
- 10:01Speaker 3: I think.
- 10:04Speaker 2: A life, a lifestyle choice, and a lifestyle change for
- 10:08Speaker 2: just a couple of hours. I want to send him
- 10:11Speaker 2: to Longford, Longford.
- 10:14Speaker 1: Longford rarely gets a day in the sun.
- 10:15Speaker 2: This is the thing, and I think it wouldn't do
- 10:17Speaker 2: any harm for him to go up and have a
- 10:18Speaker 2: look at Longford I mean there's golf courses that have
- 10:21Speaker 2: built golf course kind of responsible for two thousand and
- 10:27Speaker 2: eight happened, just say it. And but I'd like to
- 10:30Speaker 2: send him into before he heads to spiral the nightclub.
- 10:36Speaker 2: I want to send him in for three and one
- 10:38Speaker 2: across the road, and I want him to do the
- 10:40Speaker 2: meme of that lag gone. But it's not like a
- 10:43Speaker 2: three and one for hitting over. I will go into
- 10:50Speaker 2: a nightclub where you could fucking die just by looking
- 10:54Speaker 2: at some of the locals. They're that fucking scary. I
- 10:56Speaker 2: think would be a real fucking attitude of just for him.
- 10:59Speaker 1: Well, I'm going the only, the only, and then nibble
- 11:03Speaker 1: I'm going to have here on that one, Tomas. I
- 11:05Speaker 1: don't know that he will be hungry for his three
- 11:07Speaker 1: and one because I'm going to absolutely insist that this
- 11:10Speaker 1: man stops off at the Barack Obama Plaza.
- 11:13Speaker 3: Oh, that would be hilarious, brilliant.
- 11:16Speaker 1: I want to go to the Barack Obama Plaza because
- 11:19Speaker 1: I want to see how red a human beings face
- 11:21Speaker 1: can get. I want to know absolutely ape shit mad
- 11:25Speaker 1: when we bring him into the Barack Obama Plaza, which
- 11:29Speaker 1: for air are out of town listeners or anybody who's
- 11:32Speaker 1: not from Ireland. Yes, we absolutely named a potetual station
- 11:38Speaker 1: after Barack Obama.
- 11:40Speaker 2: In it.
- 11:40Speaker 1: There is a statue of Obama outside it, there's a
- 11:44Speaker 1: very else.
- 11:45Speaker 2: There's a.
- 11:48Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a cardboard cut out inside it.
- 11:50Speaker 2: Pat McDonough of of all the major plazas that aren't
- 11:54Speaker 2: the Apple Greens in the country on motorway plazas have
- 11:58Speaker 2: super max fame had the genius notion because there had
- 12:02Speaker 2: somebody had rooted out from behind the back of the
- 12:04Speaker 2: sofa when Obama.
- 12:06Speaker 3: Was over visiting that he had a relation of some sort.
- 12:09Speaker 2: In money Golle in money goll which divides nor Tipperary
- 12:13Speaker 2: and County Awfully, and he kind of went with it.
- 12:17Speaker 2: He went, yeah, you could put a comma, you know,
- 12:19Speaker 2: an apostrophe after that.
- 12:21Speaker 3: And Obama because he knows how you know.
- 12:26Speaker 1: I remember Obama when he was when he was over
- 12:28Speaker 1: that time, he had a speech in College Green and
- 12:32Speaker 1: he introduced himself. He goes, and Barack Obama of the
- 12:35Speaker 1: moneygall Obama's that was just a perfect.
- 12:39Speaker 2: Line, a line like the guy knew.
- 12:43Speaker 3: But I do I think I'd love to know are Oh, yeah,
- 12:49Speaker 3: I do.
- 12:50Speaker 2: I would love to see the fallout of that to
- 12:51Speaker 2: see what because he can't be beaten, right, Trump is
- 12:54Speaker 2: a child, He can't be beaten.
- 12:56Speaker 3: Would he then go over to the end.
- 12:58Speaker 1: Of you But he could back fire them Tom, because
- 13:01Speaker 1: he would have to say that the Barack Obama plaza
- 13:03Speaker 1: was no good and when you do that, you'd have
- 13:05Speaker 1: he'd have to write out a fucking long thread on
- 13:08Speaker 1: truth social that was like I had a SUPERMANX.
- 13:12Speaker 3: It was disgusting, the worst food I ever.
- 13:14Speaker 1: Had, And you're gonna lose the Irish crowd with that.
- 13:15Speaker 3: Nurse y you are you are? You are?
- 13:17Speaker 2: And super Max have a have a track track history
- 13:20Speaker 2: of winning abroad since the McDonald's tried to assume in
- 13:24Speaker 2: Australia for having the Big Mac with the Mighty Mac
- 13:27Speaker 2: or whatever they call it.
- 13:29Speaker 3: It genuinely is just McDowell's, it is.
- 13:33Speaker 2: Literally, But I I do think he'd probably end up
- 13:38Speaker 2: opening and naming the matter for himself.
- 13:41Speaker 1: Oh, Donald Trump plaz Donald.
- 13:42Speaker 2: Trump Plaza on over on the M E. Another one
- 13:44Speaker 2: in the M four, Another one in the M five
- 13:47Speaker 2: with a super duper Max fucking drive on.
- 13:49Speaker 3: Let him put more on what you could do? Put
- 13:53Speaker 3: the petal prices down how would you do that?
- 13:55Speaker 1: Go on, you get a taco bell in there, buddy,
- 13:58Speaker 1: I know you love the Mexicans to If there's one thing,
- 14:01Speaker 1: if Trump is smart, and that's not something he gets,
- 14:06Speaker 1: that's not a brush he gets tired with all that.
- 14:08Speaker 3: No, not too often.
- 14:09Speaker 1: But if he was smart and wanted to curry favor
- 14:12Speaker 1: with not just the Irish people that are here, but
- 14:15Speaker 1: Irish people abroad and you know, siphon awful lot of
- 14:20Speaker 1: good will that's floating around in a little bit, he
- 14:22Speaker 1: would move from Dounbag up a little bit further north
- 14:26Speaker 1: up the coast and go to Mayo.
- 14:28Speaker 2: Oh now, yeah, you see the the what's his name
- 14:31Speaker 2: of the pulled this one if he was still I
- 14:33Speaker 2: don't know, the libor dead.
- 14:34Speaker 3: But Biden, Biden.
- 14:35Speaker 1: Actually did because Joe. And this is why it's so
- 14:38Speaker 1: perfect for Trump to do Joe Biden is if if
- 14:41Speaker 1: Barack Obama is from money gold and Joe Biden is
- 14:44Speaker 1: from Mayo, fair enough. And he went there on a
- 14:47Speaker 1: presidential visit five years ago whatever it was.
- 14:50Speaker 3: Remember when told me this.
- 14:53Speaker 2: He happened to be in the spar that they brought
- 14:55Speaker 2: him into, right, they brought and he's looking looking st
- 15:00Speaker 2: for men to know where the fuck he was, and
- 15:02Speaker 2: he's looking at the deli and they're all hands behind
- 15:04Speaker 2: their back and they're all going to corn as president.
- 15:06Speaker 3: Yes, because he looks in at the court slow and
- 15:09Speaker 3: all the bits and pieces with all his triples. I
- 15:15Speaker 3: don't know why my family left here so long ago.
- 15:21Speaker 1: Do you know if you're a savvy deli staff and
- 15:24Speaker 1: Joe Biden comes in, you know that's a perfect opporture
- 15:26Speaker 1: to just go we'll cut that in half.
- 15:28Speaker 3: Joe, Yeah, but Mayo.
- 15:34Speaker 1: Get Trump up to Mayo, Yeah, kicking a fan and
- 15:38Speaker 1: congrat Congratulations gentlemen, you won the Sam Maguire Trophy. Just
- 15:42Speaker 1: give him that much to go up with and congratulations. Uh.
- 15:47Speaker 1: It is a It is an absolute fact that Mayo
- 15:50Speaker 1: did not win in all Ireland while Joe Biden was president,
- 15:54Speaker 1: but they won in Ireland. Well, Donald Trump was present.
- 15:57Speaker 1: Was he the difference maker? He will argue that he was.
- 16:01Speaker 2: Do you know now, you see this is a good advice.

- 18:04Speaker 1: it's an art. Is not just an Irish thing, but
- 18:08Speaker 1: it is an international thing that if you have some
- 18:11Speaker 1: dose in your house, Yeah, they're called in for a
- 18:14Speaker 1: visit on occasion. Some of these people it is hard

- 20:49Speaker 2: small up the road at the grandfather's place, or there
- 20:51Speaker 2: was cattle to be moved.
- 20:53Speaker 3: Cattle be moved was a great one because they're they're
- 20:55Speaker 3: on the clock and they're moved.
- 20:58Speaker 2: They're perpetually moving like you're moving them all the time,
- 21:00Speaker 2: like if to move, especially during the spring to the
- 21:03Speaker 2: autumn months, you're moving from product to paduct and the

- 21:19Speaker 2: walk around the digital wait till the fucking car pull
- 21:21Speaker 2: back out of the driving.
- 21:22Speaker 3: And wander back.
- 21:23Speaker 2: But you know, I too, I know, I know in

- 21:32Speaker 1: You know if you, if you, if you can't spot
- 21:34Speaker 1: the dose, it's you most likely well, Tom, we will

- 21:42Speaker 3: All the best.
- 21:43Speaker 2: Boast out the fucking boast out the check book. Now, Donald,
- 21:45Speaker 2: don't mind your fucking arson around and fund and Doland enough.

- 21:54Speaker 2: To say, no, just to do if you even a cough,
- 21:57Speaker 2: just putting back in the planes anyway, spend loads of money.
- 22:01Speaker 3: Donald, that's all you need to post out the checkbook.
- 22:04Speaker 3: That's mother than that. We don't care. We don't care,
- 22:06Speaker 3: we don't care.
- 22:07Speaker 1: Just give up the l nonsense. Tom, I have more
- 22:10Speaker 1: nonsense to talk to you about. But it's not about
- 22:12Speaker 1: President Trumpe. It's about another lad. As long term listeners
- 22:15Speaker 1: of the show will know, the second segment of The
- 22:18Speaker 1: Tom and Jerry Show takes a little look at someone
- 22:20Speaker 1: who really fucking exceeded themselves in the course of their
- 22:25Speaker 1: natural life to become someone we refer to not as
- 22:27Speaker 1: this lad, but this lad.
- 22:31Speaker 2: Now again, I've taken great joy from last week, where
- 22:34Speaker 2: I knew nothing about what Jerry's talking about. I also
- 22:38Speaker 2: know nothing about who Jerry has the selected season.
- 22:41Speaker 3: I'm very excited.
- 22:42Speaker 1: And you know what I'm going to tell you, Tom,
- 22:45Speaker 1: It's a guy who has been in the news for
- 22:46Speaker 1: several going on years now at this case this at
- 22:50Speaker 1: this stage, but recently was sentenced and was all this
- 22:54Speaker 1: kind of things.
- 22:55Speaker 3: So you know it's crime straight away. Okay, So he's
- 22:58Speaker 3: back in.
- 22:58Speaker 1: The news on account of this, and crime wise, we
- 23:02Speaker 1: got to fucking go around the houses with this one here. Tom.
- 23:04Speaker 1: We're not a true crime podcast, but and we're certainly
- 23:07Speaker 1: not a sexually deviant podcast.
- 23:09Speaker 3: Oh now we're not. But at the same time, it's
- 23:11Speaker 3: nice to dip the toe in the water of dirt.
- 23:14Speaker 1: Funny you should mention TOAs Tom, because this week's this
- 23:17Speaker 1: lad is a chap called Neil Hopper. Neil Hopper was
- 23:21Speaker 1: a surgeon, a very very renowned NHS vascular surgeon, and
- 23:28Speaker 1: he was like a real not even a good look story,
- 23:34Speaker 1: but it was a real motivational story. Do you get me?
- 23:36Speaker 2: Okay, So he writes to Riches kind of that he
- 23:39Speaker 2: was he was he was an exceptional surgeon and would
- 23:43Speaker 2: perform amputations and such like that's that.
- 23:46Speaker 1: That was his stocking trade. He was the guy that
- 23:48Speaker 1: did the UK in the UK. But like a very
- 23:51Speaker 1: well regarded and and and well got family man. Now,
- 23:56Speaker 1: how he ended up being somewhat of I dare say
- 23:59Speaker 1: celebrity was that he himself had two below the knee amputations,
- 24:04Speaker 1: so he was walking on the metal legs there. He
- 24:07Speaker 1: had issues with his own legs the result of sepsis
- 24:10Speaker 1: and all this kind of thing. So here he was
- 24:12Speaker 1: an amputation surgeon who had his own legs amputated. So
- 24:16Speaker 1: he was a wonderful guy to talk to you before
- 24:18Speaker 1: your operation, and he had your own good hands. I
- 24:21Speaker 1: know what you're going through, you know, you know, every
- 24:24Speaker 1: dentist in the country should have a two polled to
- 24:25Speaker 1: know what it feels like them. This kind of thing.
- 24:29Speaker 1: Wonderful story, a good man.
- 24:32Speaker 3: Yes, so far I'm not hearing anything in apt whatsoever?
- 24:35Speaker 2: What?
- 24:35Speaker 3: What what are we getting to her chair?
- 24:39Speaker 1: Well, Tommy didn't lose his legs as a result of sepsis,
- 24:43Speaker 1: they came to find out, Jesus Christ. He lost his
- 24:47Speaker 1: legs very much by choice. Because Neil Hopper's sexual fetish
- 24:54Speaker 1: was amputations, and for the longest time he considered his
- 25:04Speaker 1: own legs to be an enormous burden to him, holding
- 25:08Speaker 1: him back from being the man he thought he could be.
- 25:10Speaker 1: A true Hopper, a true hopper, Neil Hopper missing his legs.
- 25:16Speaker 2: Ah, he can't kneel now, and fairful, you can't kneel.
- 25:20Speaker 1: You can't fucking hop?
- 25:24Speaker 3: Are you fucking Like?
- 25:25Speaker 2: I watched the program of of Kinky Bastards before and
- 25:29Speaker 2: I was like, this fellow in love with Honda Civic
- 25:31Speaker 2: and he was, you know, right, And then you know
- 25:34Speaker 2: there's a one and she's after marrying a pirate.
- 25:37Speaker 1: And someone considering themselves married to the Eiffel Tower, and yeah.
- 25:40Speaker 2: And there's you know, there was a fellow he was
- 25:42Speaker 2: in love with a dolphin and you know, okay, you're right, okay,
- 25:45Speaker 2: but and I've heard of that there was a guy
- 25:47Speaker 2: who had a sexual fantasy to be eating alive, like
- 25:50Speaker 2: really really, you know this isotomized and stuff like, okay,
- 25:54Speaker 2: so this is.
- 25:55Speaker 1: More the level. So the guys that are rubbing, rubbing
- 25:57Speaker 1: the balls up against the feet, that's one thing, you know,
- 25:59Speaker 1: first and foremost we want to say at the Tom
- 26:01Speaker 1: and Jerry Show that we do not think shame to
- 26:04Speaker 1: borrow a phrase from a certain Australian politician.
- 26:08Speaker 3: But I'm not spending any more time on it.
- 26:13Speaker 1: We every now and then we'll have to go yeah, okay,
- 26:17Speaker 1: but hold on a second. Just like you mentioned there
- 26:19Speaker 1: the guy that wanted to be eaten, and there actually
- 26:21Speaker 1: was a chap who I want to say his sexual
- 26:24Speaker 1: fetish was to be killed and eaton in Germany, remember
- 26:27Speaker 1: that Germany?
- 26:28Speaker 3: That's it?
- 26:28Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and he signed over I I decree that
- 26:33Speaker 1: I am one hundred percent okay with being killed and eaton.
- 26:36Speaker 1: Fucking going to be the best day of my life
- 26:39Speaker 1: to be killed and eaton. And the guards were still like, yeah,
- 26:42Speaker 1: still a crime that No, we're getting here for that.
- 26:44Speaker 2: Yeah you can't. Yeah, you can't be signing that over.
- 26:46Speaker 2: That's that's yeah, hearing it there.
- 26:48Speaker 3: So we get to meet you.
- 26:49Speaker 1: We're into that kind of extreme ended things where you're
- 26:52Speaker 1: just sort of like, okay, not for me.
- 26:57Speaker 2: So doctor, doctor Neil, So did he get himself into
- 27:01Speaker 2: the like that's a driven individual?
- 27:04Speaker 3: He was a driven individual. Reputations as a as a trade.
- 27:09Speaker 1: More than that in a second, right, Okay, So we'll
- 27:13Speaker 1: come to find out how he had his own legs
- 27:15Speaker 1: cut off and this is the thing that's rolling on
- 27:16Speaker 1: since twenty eighteen, twenty nineteen. Okay he was and this
- 27:21Speaker 1: is a man with a wife and kids.
- 27:22Speaker 2: By the way, who, by the way, is going to
- 27:24Speaker 2: get the blue disc for parking places. But anyway, Jesus Christ,
- 27:29Speaker 2: long road to go for it.
- 27:30Speaker 1: But anyway, it's yeah, So how do you fax epsos? Tom?
- 27:34Speaker 1: How do you fake vascular shutdown that requires very uniform amputation?
- 27:41Speaker 1: Like he got his legs cut off like the Knight
- 27:43Speaker 1: that says, like the Black Knight, just completely level two
- 27:47Speaker 1: inches underneath the knees, scratch his butt of scratch. What
- 27:52Speaker 1: ar wicked doctor was doing was he was sticking his
- 27:56Speaker 1: legs in buckets of ice for up to eight hours
- 27:59Speaker 1: out of time time to sort of bring frost bite
- 28:04Speaker 1: and uh general poor leg health. I guess I'm no doctor.
- 28:12Speaker 2: I mean, whim half would tell you probably cure or
- 28:14Speaker 2: socking syphilis or something like But anyway, yeah.
- 28:16Speaker 1: But yeah, so some of the some of the ice
- 28:18Speaker 1: bat bros will be like, yeah, deadly is going to
- 28:20Speaker 1: be ripped a fuck shredded to bits.
- 28:24Speaker 3: Were called inflammation in those caves.
- 28:26Speaker 1: Yeah, really really racking up the PBS on the five
- 28:30Speaker 1: k runs with them. No, he sickened his legs with
- 28:33Speaker 1: ice until the point where they're like, Neil, Ah, brother,
- 28:38Speaker 1: legs are sh We don't know how to tell you this,
- 28:40Speaker 1: but we're gonna have to chop them bitches off, to
- 28:43Speaker 1: which Neil was like, oh no, oh dear, oh no.
- 28:47Speaker 1: Did he have to lose these appendages?
- 28:49Speaker 2: Did he go long trouser leg or shorty or above?
- 28:54Speaker 1: Then I wonder below the knee too, below the kny

- 29:04Speaker 1: of robot legs, the military legs like. He looks like

- 29:12Speaker 1: having a fucking and he's having a great old him.
- 29:15Speaker 1: Like number one, I'm going to tell you this much time.
- 29:16Speaker 1: Maybe it is your sexual fetish to lose a leg,
- 29:20Speaker 1: and I cannot put myself in that headspace, right, Okay,
- 29:24Speaker 1: there's no coming back from that. That is, in the
- 29:27Speaker 1: case of the next day turning around and going like,

- 30:34Speaker 1: Okay, so so far we're not seeing a crime here. Okay, No,
- 30:38Speaker 1: I mean if I you know, he's not put into
- 30:41Speaker 1: the bands, so be it right. His crime, Tom was
- 30:46Speaker 1: insurance fraud. Oh yes, indeed, because he claimed insurance payouts
- 30:54Speaker 1: for losing his legs through illness, which he absolutely did
- 30:58Speaker 1: not do. He lost them through fucking I don't even
- 31:01Speaker 1: know if he if he if he had the legs
- 31:02Speaker 1: chopped off and then pulled himself. I don't know what
- 31:05Speaker 1: the fucking rhythm it is is whatsoever? Just looking down
- 31:08Speaker 1: where his legs used to be, going like God, Jesus, yeah,
- 31:11Speaker 1: or fucking smashing job. He put in insurance claims for
- 31:15Speaker 1: four hundred and sixty six thousand pounds sterling for the
- 31:21Speaker 1: two legs, for the two legs, and claimed it and
- 31:24Speaker 1: got it and went back to work, and everybody was like,
- 31:27Speaker 1: he's so brave, He's so wonderful. He's such a fucking
- 31:30Speaker 1: chairman man, deadly stuff. He's made a thousand blossoms bloom,
- 31:33Speaker 1: He's got a half millions sterling in his back pocket,
- 31:36Speaker 1: you know, of his cameo trunks.
- 31:42Speaker 3: Of his jorts arts for sure.
- 31:46Speaker 1: Ah. And that's what they got him on. They got
- 31:48Speaker 1: him on fraud. They all camponed them. They got him
- 31:51Speaker 1: on fraud, because what the fuck else could they get
- 31:54Speaker 1: the man on?
- 31:54Speaker 2: But I wonder what sport did he fucking blabber down
- 31:59Speaker 2: the hotel bar one evening or something.

- 32:22Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know why he's fucking OJ's lawyer.
- 32:24Speaker 2: All of a sudden, he's trying to put a glove
- 32:28Speaker 2: on your man's foot. So that's that worked on the
- 32:32Speaker 2: last one. That this one the okay, So.
- 32:35Speaker 1: How we got got was as you said yourself, there, Tom,
- 32:38Speaker 1: he fucking rather than himself fucking. He was a subscriber
- 32:44Speaker 1: to an amputation pornography website sentences. I never thought I
- 32:49Speaker 1: would hear myself say, Tom that this is a thing
- 32:51Speaker 1: that you for.
- 32:51Speaker 3: A second time in one week.
- 32:53Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah. He he was part of an online
- 32:59Speaker 1: message board or some such a community of this.
- 33:02Speaker 2: But he must have been like there, like he was there, Gandalf,
- 33:05Speaker 2: like I mean, he had not.
- 33:10Speaker 1: No, he no, he got got, He got got because
- 33:13Speaker 1: the website was seized by the good people of website
- 33:16Speaker 1: police that were like, no, you can't fuck just post
- 33:18Speaker 1: videos of lads chop under nick and balls off with
- 33:20Speaker 1: a fucking bride knife. No, that's we're just gonna say
- 33:22Speaker 1: no to that. So all you people were gonna have
- 33:26Speaker 1: a little look at all you fucking sake folks that
- 33:27Speaker 1: are subscribed to this, including what's that name there, doctor
- 33:30Speaker 1: Neil Hopper. Is that the same guy that was on
- 33:32Speaker 1: this morning, the surgeon that was on talking to fucking
- 33:35Speaker 1: Philip and Holly about how brave he is coming back
- 33:38Speaker 1: in here, coming back Hobe. He wasn't talking to Philip,
- 33:41Speaker 1: but you know, and and Schofields there next over on
- 33:45Speaker 1: the thing. Ah, is this the dude? It is the
- 33:49Speaker 1: fucking dude, And that's what he got God for possession
- 33:51Speaker 1: the pornography. Again, they're at pains on the BBC website
- 33:54Speaker 1: to say it's not child pornography. It's like no, but
- 33:56Speaker 1: it is lads volunteering to get their fucking hands cut
- 33:58Speaker 1: off on YouTube. So ah, yeah, not the King shame,
- 34:03Speaker 1: but hold on, So he's probably not a website someone
- 34:06Speaker 1: should be providing from.
- 34:07Speaker 2: So this guy specializes as an amputy surgeon every day
- 34:11Speaker 2: of the week. And he ain't getting his fucking rocks
- 34:13Speaker 2: off on the job.
- 34:15Speaker 1: Well, that is what brings us to light now, Tom, because,
- 34:18Speaker 1: like I said, this cour case has been going for
- 34:20Speaker 1: several years, and your man's in real last jail for
- 34:23Speaker 1: a couple of years on account of insurance for all
- 34:25Speaker 1: and all this kind of crack and possession of what
- 34:28Speaker 1: they're calling extreme pornography, which I'm going to just call
- 34:31Speaker 1: like not pornography as I would understand it to be.
- 34:34Speaker 1: Not a boom in site.
- 34:35Speaker 3: Just six shit, just six shit, fair enough.
- 34:38Speaker 1: Okay, So enjoy jail, Neil. What is coming to light
- 34:42Speaker 1: now is a big public outcry of people going like,
- 34:47Speaker 1: why on a second does the same lot to chop
- 34:48Speaker 1: my fucking arm off in twenty twenty two? Was he there?
- 34:54Speaker 3: Fucking did it need to come off?
- 34:56Speaker 1: In other words, didn't need number one, didn't need to
- 34:58Speaker 1: come off number two? Was he just? They are giddy
- 35:00Speaker 1: with excitement as he could it off? Number three? Am
- 35:03Speaker 1: I on YouTube? What the fuck is happening here?
- 35:06Speaker 3: Jesus Christ? So you're looking at it like you're going
- 35:09Speaker 3: to the sky with a cough. He's like, I got

- 35:37Speaker 1: not up in arms. There are up and stumps there
- 35:41Speaker 1: just like fucking having a dreadful time.

- 39:01Speaker 1: as well, Toma. Fuck me. We've seen a lot because,
- 39:03Speaker 1: as we say in the third segment of the show,

- 39:14Speaker 1: we Remember when this.
- 39:17Speaker 2: One is quite easy to get people around. You may
- 39:19Speaker 2: have noticed in between there I've for the past undered
- 39:22Speaker 2: us or odd episodes, there's normally a little a little
- 39:26Speaker 2: voice over, a.
- 39:26Speaker 3: Little jingle, aary between jingle, a little.
- 39:29Speaker 2: In between one of our our our three segments, and
- 39:31Speaker 2: you didn't have it last week, and nobody kicked up
- 39:33Speaker 2: a post in all fairness to them, but.
- 39:34Speaker 1: Listenership didn't plumber.
- 39:36Speaker 3: He didn't.
- 39:37Speaker 1: But we like that there. We like the show to
- 39:38Speaker 1: be just right. I also noticed last week and this
- 39:40Speaker 1: week you might notice that our that our steeple jack
- 39:44Speaker 1: chum couldn't radio win.
- 39:46Speaker 3: No, no, no, he couldn't. But we might be able
- 39:49Speaker 3: to work it out this week. I can work it out.
- 39:51Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll set up an DN there for him.
- 39:53Speaker 2: The problem being is Tom's big, stupid expensive computer decided
- 40:00Speaker 2: of this and some engine part locked up on it,
- 40:03Speaker 2: and it has now gone to do gone to the mechanics,
- 40:06Speaker 2: the computer mechanics, with every fucking thing I possessed. Jerry, Yeah,
- 40:12Speaker 2: it has gone with the world inside in it, this
- 40:16Speaker 2: fucking thing. And of course I'm getting I'm getting the
- 40:18Speaker 2: poorm out of your mind, going no.
- 40:20Speaker 3: There's a fucking trick. You want to get that now,
- 40:21Speaker 3: I'm like, what the Yeah, when he says tricky, he
- 40:24Speaker 3: means expensive.
- 40:25Speaker 1: Job, that's what.
- 40:26Speaker 2: And I haven't gotten I haven't gotten been told. I
- 40:28Speaker 2: haven't been told I think yet by the man. So
- 40:30Speaker 2: that's where we're at the minute. I've fallen back on
- 40:32Speaker 2: the laptop, and the laptop is absolutely fine. But for
- 40:35Speaker 2: it coming through clear to me maybe I don't know
- 40:37Speaker 2: what the none of my jingles, all my stuff is gone.
- 40:39Speaker 2: It's inside that computer right now, So it's in a
- 40:42Speaker 2: shopping clann fucking mell. I can just about get the
- 40:44Speaker 2: Tom and Jerry show jingle at the top of the bottom.
- 40:47Speaker 2: And that's as much as we're going to have until
- 40:49Speaker 2: that man fixes my computer and gets me back all
- 40:51Speaker 2: my stuff.
- 40:52Speaker 3: So it got to us.
- 40:54Speaker 2: Thinking about come a time nowadays, Jerry, you catch the
- 41:00Speaker 2: computer fucking in the bin and go, well, that's that done,
- 41:03Speaker 2: onto the next And that wasn't always the case, sure
- 41:06Speaker 2: to Unnguer it wasn't.
- 41:08Speaker 1: No. I mean, it warms my heart somewhat, Tom to
- 41:11Speaker 1: hear that your computer even can be repaired and is
- 41:15Speaker 1: in a repair show.
- 41:16Speaker 3: We will the jury is still out on it.
- 41:19Speaker 2: Chair. Your man is sucking through his fucking teeth for
- 41:21Speaker 2: twenty seconds at a time. We're not there yet, We're
- 41:24Speaker 2: not over the fucking line just yet. But anyway, when
- 41:26Speaker 2: the shop exists, that my shop exists, that might he
- 41:28Speaker 2: took it in off me. He took it over the
- 41:30Speaker 2: counter and went, I'll give him my best shot.
- 41:32Speaker 1: Kid, Like you do that, son, Because as you say yourself,
- 41:35Speaker 1: that the thing to do these days with something that
- 41:39Speaker 1: is broken or not working is to fuck it out.
- 41:41Speaker 1: I cannot go down to the fingall skip the fingal
- 41:45Speaker 1: dump one more time, Tom, to see people throwing seventy
- 41:49Speaker 1: inch LCD screens into the fucking bind Yeah, because the
- 41:53Speaker 1: picture of it just isn't right. We are of a time, Tom,
- 41:56Speaker 1: when if the thing broke, you fixed it. Yeah.
- 42:00Speaker 3: Yet, and it's I still have a Mikita. I'm very
- 42:06Speaker 3: proud of this. It's got to be well. I got
- 42:08Speaker 3: beaten recently.
- 42:09Speaker 2: By herself's father when he was talking about his his
- 42:11Speaker 2: Makita jigsaw. But I Makita jigsaw that has seen force.
- 42:16Speaker 3: That's the brocious.
- 42:17Speaker 2: Yes, it is fucking bulletproof. It winds up like you know,
- 42:23Speaker 2: like a jigs like. It isn't the instantaneous jigsaw that
- 42:26Speaker 2: you can winds up with that gets up into it speed.
- 42:30Speaker 2: It's a fucking beast. It'll go through.
- 42:32Speaker 3: Anything with the right blade on it. And it's it's
- 42:34Speaker 3: got to be sixteen or seventeen years old.
- 42:36Speaker 1: But and what respect, Tom, do you do you think
- 42:39Speaker 1: you're going to be using your Parkside jigsaw that you
- 42:41Speaker 1: bought from legal in sixteen years with respect.
- 42:44Speaker 2: Let's get you well that she park says, all right,
- 42:46Speaker 2: to be fair, it's not bad, but it's I can.
- 42:49Speaker 2: I can promise you trying to get parts, this is
- 42:51Speaker 2: the problem. You can because the likes of Mikita are
- 42:55Speaker 2: very good, the long, long running Japanese company are very
- 42:59Speaker 2: good for providing replacement parts and bits and pieces because they.
- 43:03Speaker 3: Kind of know.
- 43:05Speaker 2: They know they're flogging the new stuff all the time,
- 43:07Speaker 2: but they kind of know their after sales are a
- 43:09Speaker 2: lot of older Joiners and stuff like that are going. Man,
- 43:14Speaker 2: I this fucking thing's a beast. I'm if I can
- 43:17Speaker 2: replace the brushes in it. Do you know? Now? A
- 43:18Speaker 2: lot of these things are brushless, you know, and you
- 43:21Speaker 2: ain't getting at it like a little orbital standard that
- 43:23Speaker 2: I had. Fucking killed the thing, but I mean I can't.
- 43:26Speaker 2: It's only fucking three months old. Killed here on the
- 43:28Speaker 2: job when we're doing the house. And my Lithuanian friend
- 43:33Speaker 2: who still is only a young man but still comes
- 43:36Speaker 2: from that mindset in he's brought up in Lithuania that
- 43:40Speaker 2: you fix we open, we have look, I says, we
- 43:43Speaker 2: open we have look, let's have a fucking look, and
- 43:44Speaker 2: hoping we did found all it was there, and I
- 43:47Speaker 2: was being told by people fucking out get another. One
- 43:50Speaker 2: said yeah, oh yeah, I'll give another one hundred quid
- 43:52Speaker 2: for Sander. No, yeah, a rubber band and you could
- 43:55Speaker 2: buy him for twelve euros this set of rubber bands,
- 43:58Speaker 2: just to just to regulate the speed on of thing.
- 44:00Speaker 2: And there we are fixed brand you again.
- 44:03Speaker 1: You know, it is such a foreign concept these days
- 44:05Speaker 1: to come. We've talked before on the show about the
- 44:08Speaker 1: TV repair man. That was a job someone would come,
- 44:13Speaker 1: you know, you could take your TV to them. But
- 44:15Speaker 1: these things were like five and six on the West.
- 44:16Speaker 1: There was a big fucking built in thing.
- 44:18Speaker 3: You know.
- 44:19Speaker 1: He weren't lifting it around the place, but he would
- 44:21Speaker 1: come and he would open up the back of it
- 44:23Speaker 1: a change, a couple of a cattle braid, drivers, tubes
- 44:27Speaker 1: and whatnot, and I think he'd be fucking right is
- 44:29Speaker 1: nine pence Again, You didn't just say our fucket, we'll
- 44:31Speaker 1: suck it out and buy a new one. You fixed it.
- 44:34Speaker 2: And it was a piece of furniture because I remember
- 44:36Speaker 2: we had one and the buttons were like you could
- 44:38Speaker 2: hit you could hit the buttons with a fucking love hammer.
- 44:40Speaker 2: But it was actually timber, like it was in the
- 44:43Speaker 2: body of it was timber. Yeah, so it was it
- 44:46Speaker 2: looked like a piece of furniture like it was cherry
- 44:48Speaker 2: wood or something on the outside or walnut on the outside.
- 44:50Speaker 1: Veneered vineyard of course.
- 44:52Speaker 2: But yeah, get with a cigarette burner to you here
- 44:54Speaker 2: there a cigarette burner. Maybe I definitely hit a tea
- 44:57Speaker 2: cover ing and several parts, like you know, and those
- 45:00Speaker 2: things sucked in dust like you didn't need a hoover
- 45:03Speaker 2: back in the old days. They just inhaled every with
- 45:05Speaker 2: the static electricity they were generating in the corner.
- 45:06Speaker 3: Of the room.
- 45:07Speaker 1: Oh yeah, they just.
- 45:09Speaker 2: Every fucking They were like their own fucking orbit around them,
- 45:11Speaker 2: like in the way I dust.
- 45:12Speaker 3: But there was not just that.
- 45:15Speaker 2: But and I've talked about this, the appliance guy that
- 45:18Speaker 2: was local here too, and how my grandfather went in
- 45:21Speaker 2: with me one day with the mother's kitchen aid.
- 45:24Speaker 1: This was was going to say, for every man that
- 45:25Speaker 1: has a drill that he's had for forty years, a
- 45:27Speaker 1: lady has a ken wood mix or something, they could
- 45:32Speaker 1: take it in.
- 45:33Speaker 2: And this guy, I know I since heard that he's
- 45:35Speaker 2: closed up the shop, you know, And I was thinking
- 45:38Speaker 2: to you, I was like, jar would fucking hate that now,
- 45:40Speaker 2: But lo and behold he's just working from his own
- 45:44Speaker 2: garage and what he can do. Right, This is how
- 45:46Speaker 2: good this guy is, right, he's still operational.
- 45:48Speaker 1: Chair.
- 45:50Speaker 2: The mother's oven went the button and I wouldn't spring
- 45:54Speaker 2: back out the spring the outy button and she rang
- 45:58Speaker 2: him and he says me a video call and showed
- 46:02Speaker 2: me walk me through.
- 46:03Speaker 3: Everything he went. Can I do?
- 46:06Speaker 2: That's a French bastard. That's a French bastard. They've they've
- 46:09Speaker 2: gone out of they've gone bang. And if I don't,
- 46:12Speaker 2: I don't remember if I remember correctly, the parts just
- 46:16Speaker 2: they have designed their own fucking parts behind us. I
- 46:19Speaker 2: could retro fit something, missus. But let me tell you,
- 46:24Speaker 2: I I honestly for what I'd have to do to
- 46:26Speaker 2: rip the face, rip the seal and rip the face
- 46:28Speaker 2: off it and fucking replace it the whole thing yet
- 46:31Speaker 2: nearly because that's like fifteen years old oven. Yeah, would
- 46:34Speaker 2: you think would you think about getting a new oven, missus?
- 46:37Speaker 2: Because like I'd be halfway to fucking fix and i'd
- 46:41Speaker 2: fix it, and you might go on to get another
- 46:42Speaker 2: two years.
- 46:44Speaker 1: You know, I can appreciate it.
- 46:46Speaker 2: He had her go through everything because he's I'd love
- 46:48Speaker 2: to fix it. I'd love to fix that for you
- 46:50Speaker 2: and maybe.
- 46:51Speaker 1: Put me in the game chief.
- 46:52Speaker 3: And if she if she was, he gave her the option.
- 46:55Speaker 3: He goes, this is this is the way it is.
- 46:57Speaker 3: I'll give you the option.
- 46:58Speaker 2: I can probably retro it's some sort of spring spring
- 47:01Speaker 2: motion behind that, maybe rob it off something else. And
- 47:04Speaker 2: but for the work i'd have to do, I'd need
- 47:05Speaker 2: that for two days, and I'd have to charge you
- 47:08Speaker 2: two days fucking draft or whatever. You'd be halfway to
- 47:12Speaker 2: buy a fucking new oven.
- 47:13Speaker 3: So what do you want?
- 47:14Speaker 1: Your call?
- 47:14Speaker 2: Miss is so at least at least at least the
- 47:16Speaker 2: at least the cost was there. It warmed the cocks
- 47:18Speaker 2: in my heart to know that a man still exists,
- 47:20Speaker 2: like they.
- 47:21Speaker 1: Can do all that kind of work. And you know,
- 47:24Speaker 1: a lot of the times time we can take all
- 47:26Speaker 1: we're doing these things ourselves. If you're sort of skilled,
- 47:29Speaker 1: like you know, you managed to fix your standard there.
- 47:31Speaker 1: I managed to fix the the my wife's kitchen aid mixer,
- 47:35Speaker 1: which is our which is our pride and joy and
- 47:38Speaker 1: that's you know, we've talked about kitchen aid mixers before
- 47:40Speaker 1: in the show. It's like, literally the World War two ended,
- 47:43Speaker 1: it's like, well, we don't we can't make engines for
- 47:46Speaker 1: be fifty two bombers anymore. What we do with all
- 47:48Speaker 1: these parts make make food mixers for the ladies back home.
- 47:53Speaker 1: You can open it up and you can find very
- 47:55Speaker 1: definitely not little micro chips and ship like this, but
- 47:57Speaker 1: actual switches and cobs and relationship and if you're kind
- 48:00Speaker 1: of handy, a wee bit and I will pride myself
- 48:03Speaker 1: on being a wee bit handy, not not a lot,
- 48:06Speaker 1: but I'll get the job done and you can fix
- 48:08Speaker 1: it up yourself. What we're battling against them is a
- 48:12Speaker 1: phrase that has grown in our lifetime. Kids these days
- 48:16Speaker 1: might just think, well that that has always been here, brother,
- 48:19Speaker 1: No it hasn't. The phrase is called planned obsolescence. Yeah,
- 48:25Speaker 1: where the failure of the product is not by accident.
- 48:31Speaker 1: In the design of a product, they make sure that
- 48:34Speaker 1: this thing will break at a certain time that will
- 48:38Speaker 1: require you to get another.
- 48:40Speaker 3: Now, not about that to me with your computer, by
- 48:43Speaker 3: the way.
- 48:44Speaker 1: Yeah, it's and a lot of it was Apple products
- 48:48Speaker 1: and whatnot. That would release software every couple of months,
- 48:52Speaker 1: and they'd be like, what the fuck. I didn't really
- 48:54Speaker 1: need an update on the thing to make it the
- 48:56Speaker 1: background different and fuck all else really changed. But if
- 49:00Speaker 1: you tell me I have to do it, okay, fair enough,
- 49:02Speaker 1: But then you tell me that by downloading this software update,
- 49:06Speaker 1: now my computer is just fucked. It just doesn't work anymore. Yep,
- 49:10Speaker 1: that's planned absolescence. Maybe you've had that computer for too
- 49:13Speaker 1: long and Apple would like you to buy another one,
- 49:15Speaker 1: please and thank you.
- 49:16Speaker 2: Well, you know, like we talked about Toyota in the past,
- 49:19Speaker 2: like and how they used to make their jeeps the
- 49:20Speaker 2: land Cruiser to military grade for domestic market.
- 49:24Speaker 3: Yes, and then clocked it on and went, what the fuck.
- 49:26Speaker 1: Are we doing.
- 49:27Speaker 2: Nobody's fucking coming back to us for a new one.
- 49:30Speaker 2: They're like, yeah, better start putting these things in the mud.
- 49:33Speaker 2: And then like that they came way back to five year,
- 49:37Speaker 2: you know, ten year, five year life expectancy instead of
- 49:40Speaker 2: a twenty five year fucking military grade. These things are
- 49:44Speaker 2: breaking inside eight years. They're like, yeah, you know, scars,
- 49:47Speaker 2: isn't it scarce?
- 49:48Speaker 1: I am? I did hear one, and I haven't done
- 49:51Speaker 1: the research on this, but it sounds it sounds fairly
- 49:55Speaker 1: legit to me. Tom that say, your washing machine or
- 49:59Speaker 1: your dishwasher, if you I wash everyone on the same
- 50:02Speaker 1: fucking cycle time, I don't. I don't have time to
- 50:05Speaker 1: think whether this is bedding or denim or what the
- 50:09Speaker 1: fuck it is. I put it to quick wash, and
- 50:12Speaker 1: I put it.
- 50:13Speaker 2: There's a bunch of stuff on that vocal washing machine er.
- 50:15Speaker 2: It's telling me that it's it's it's iron ready. I'm like,
- 50:18Speaker 2: there's this doesn't stop the ECO forty time and press start.
- 50:22Speaker 1: That's what you right. We're told that you should mix
- 50:26Speaker 1: that up because each of the settings has a certain
- 50:30Speaker 1: amount of goals on them.
- 50:32Speaker 3: Fuck off.
- 50:32Speaker 1: So you might have you might have six hundred goals
- 50:35Speaker 1: for ECO four hundred and then six hundred goals for
- 50:39Speaker 1: outdoor wash and six hundred goals for bedding or whatever
- 50:42Speaker 1: the fuck it might be. So that when you get
- 50:45Speaker 1: to the end of that, if you think about it,
- 50:46Speaker 1: time you put your washing machine on what like every
- 50:48Speaker 1: two days, every three days if you can, okay, six
- 50:52Speaker 1: hundred goals, six hundred goals will take you what three
- 50:55Speaker 1: years to run through, and at that stage of a
- 50:57Speaker 1: washing machine is out a warranty and it will just
- 50:59Speaker 1: literally start to shut down. Nothing wrong with it, nothing
- 51:04Speaker 1: wrong with it, just it has counted the amount of
- 51:08Speaker 1: times you've you've put it on. So they say you
- 51:10Speaker 1: should mix it up between higher echo six hundred or
- 51:13Speaker 1: on your on your dishwash, you know, plates, heavy pots,
- 51:16Speaker 1: whatever it might be. Yeah, it doesn't really hold water,
- 51:18Speaker 1: because if I was a dishwasher maker, I would just
- 51:21Speaker 1: say six hundred goes of anything and then kill it. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 51:25Speaker 1: But it was said to me, and I momentarily believed it.
- 51:29Speaker 1: I believe that's the world war living in today. And
- 51:31Speaker 1: if you ring as you said yourself, I've I've run
- 51:33Speaker 1: guys to come out and fix the dishwasher because I
- 51:37Speaker 1: didn't have the money for a new one. And this
- 51:38Speaker 1: guy said he would fix it for sixty bucks. And
- 51:40Speaker 1: he came out and he sucked around with it, and
- 51:42Speaker 1: and and we got another year out of it. That
- 51:44Speaker 1: was that was worth a fifty year old call that.
- 51:46Speaker 1: But he said to me, look, you know there's no
- 51:49Speaker 1: parts for this. It's you know, there's nothing I can
- 51:52Speaker 1: do with it. But I'm just gonna try something and
- 51:54Speaker 1: it's going to do one of two, one of three things.
- 51:57Speaker 1: It's going to fix it, it's gonna break it, or
- 52:02Speaker 1: it's gonna do nothing.
- 52:03Speaker 2: All right, Yeah, I'd rolled the dice on that one.
- 52:05Speaker 1: Roll the dice on that one. It's either going to
- 52:07Speaker 1: fix it, break it completely, or nothing will have changed
- 52:10Speaker 1: and it still will be giving you dirty dishes back it. I,
- 52:13Speaker 1: you can't do it. And he put a screwdriver in
- 52:15Speaker 1: the side of it and shut the door. Fuck, it's
- 52:19Speaker 1: just by putting the screw driver in the side of
- 52:21Speaker 1: it and shutting the hinge against it sort of relocated
- 52:23Speaker 1: his shoulder Martin Riggs style.
- 52:25Speaker 2: And okay, so it was kind of sucking hingebound, So
- 52:27Speaker 2: wouldn't former lock okay? Yeah, And that was it the days,
- 52:31Speaker 2: the days of not just getting a fell out. It
- 52:33Speaker 2: was the days you could like things were simplistic enough
- 52:36Speaker 2: that you could take a stab at it yourself.
- 52:38Speaker 1: Again, like I said, try and have a little look
- 52:40Speaker 1: and believe me to him, By the time I called
- 52:42Speaker 1: the man out to fix the dishwasher, I had taken
- 52:44Speaker 1: it apart. He pricked out it enough. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 52:46Speaker 1: I was like, this is beyond my scale to fix.
- 52:48Speaker 3: And I have given myself three electric trucks. Well, I
- 52:51Speaker 3: was very.
- 52:51Speaker 2: Proud of myself. Actually the other day it's funny that
- 52:53Speaker 2: you we went down this route. It was yesterday.
- 52:55Speaker 3: I stupidly a couple of weeks ago.
- 52:59Speaker 2: I have an air pump, you know, for pumping tires
- 53:01Speaker 2: in the car, and somebody who won't get it even
- 53:04Speaker 2: a GP here that it's off the road this long time.
- 53:07Speaker 2: But it's a perfect for driving around the ranch, you know,
- 53:10Speaker 2: it's absolute dreamy for driving around the ench. But the
- 53:12Speaker 2: tires go flat that I ain't getting fucking replaced or changed.
- 53:15Speaker 2: They'll go flat after about six weeks, and it's nice
- 53:18Speaker 2: to keep it topped up. And I had the air
- 53:20Speaker 2: pump in the car and the nozzle of it on
- 53:23Speaker 2: a long pipe hung out the door of the car
- 53:25Speaker 2: at the jeep. The other day I closed it. Made
- 53:27Speaker 2: shit of it.
- 53:27Speaker 3: Yeah, plastic fucking heaper rubbish.
- 53:30Speaker 1: I was a good pumpture.
- 53:32Speaker 3: Would like you'd replace a pump for twenty quid, wouldn't you?
- 53:34Speaker 2: Oh?
- 53:35Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 53:35Speaker 3: Would fuck cher?
- 53:37Speaker 2: Yeah. Went on Amazon and ordered two spare nozzles made
- 53:42Speaker 2: from fucking some sort of brass ally figured the tougher
- 53:46Speaker 2: one wout right, but they if if it says, it
- 53:50Speaker 2: can just fit on. It came with no clamps nothing,
- 53:52Speaker 2: found myself a little twenty mini fucking Jubili clipper.
- 53:57Speaker 1: Factor.
- 53:58Speaker 3: Someone, Yeah, snip off the.
- 54:00Speaker 2: Old fucking rubbish roger, a little bit of lubricant our friends,
- 54:05Speaker 2: w D forty slatted straight in, straight down the pipe.
- 54:11Speaker 2: Jubilee clip tightened the fucking thing till I nearly broke
- 54:13Speaker 2: my hand and put the turk PSI in all four
- 54:17Speaker 2: jeep tires lovely And was there a fucking squeak of.
- 54:21Speaker 3: A fart out of it?
- 54:22Speaker 2: No, I was proud as punch five euro us instead
- 54:26Speaker 2: of replacing, Instead of replacing, the York just took fifteen
- 54:30Speaker 2: minutes of a bit of elbow breeze.
- 54:33Speaker 1: I'll tell you another thing Tom to have about the house.
- 54:35Speaker 1: And I'm sorry listeners can't see this because you're listening.
- 54:38Speaker 1: Ain't watchers. Good stuff here gas spray, so you get
- 54:43Speaker 1: it in any computer repair shopping. It's not all that cheap.
- 54:46Speaker 1: It's about ten hour can and it's just aaron can,
- 54:48Speaker 1: just compressed aaron and can with a little w D
- 54:51Speaker 1: forty strong to it. I could have done with that.
- 54:53Speaker 1: I think maybe that's what I did to the big computer.
- 54:55Speaker 1: And I'll tell you like anything that I've had that
- 54:58Speaker 1: has broken or anything like that. I find if you
- 55:00Speaker 1: loosen it down, you give it a blast of this
- 55:03Speaker 1: to clean efforting inside it, and then you tighten it
- 55:05Speaker 1: all back up again. Will usually kick.
- 55:07Speaker 3: Or or tom be broken, or I would have done nothing.
- 55:12Speaker 3: That same.
- 55:14Speaker 2: GP years ago, there's a great mechanic up the road,
- 55:16Speaker 2: and he was saying she was it was struggling whatever was.
- 55:19Speaker 2: He didn't have time to fix it properly, right, But
- 55:22Speaker 2: he'll say there was an injective problem. I don't know
- 55:24Speaker 2: what was struggling for the start in the mornings where
- 55:26Speaker 2: there was the heating coils for the for the the
- 55:30Speaker 2: easel or whatever, but it was struggling. It says, Look,
- 55:33Speaker 2: I can get you through the next three weeks for
- 55:35Speaker 2: the start and the cold start in the morning. Yeah,
- 55:38Speaker 2: most jeeps, like the oldland Rovers like we have, have
- 55:40Speaker 2: outside there as it's air in the air intake up
- 55:43Speaker 2: on the side of the bonnet where you could put
- 55:45Speaker 2: on a snorkle if you needed it. Is doing me
- 55:48Speaker 2: a favor by yourself a kind of hair spray across
- 55:51Speaker 2: the road there in that shot flammable, yes, air spray,
- 55:55Speaker 2: So it's technically easy start, like the song fucking I
- 55:59Speaker 2: can't reasy start on making moans hit the day. And
- 56:02Speaker 2: that's exactly what I used for three weeks of spraying it.
- 56:05Speaker 2: Just one little squirt down the air intake and just
- 56:07Speaker 2: to get things fat them in a way. She went
- 56:11Speaker 2: and away she go every single morning. I'll tell you, man,
- 56:13Speaker 2: I could actually get on notire. I can't actually remember
- 56:16Speaker 2: what it was he had to fix that time, but
- 56:19Speaker 2: he got me through three weeks with a kind of
- 56:20Speaker 2: silver screen, the stuff from the nineties that.
- 56:23Speaker 3: Your mother would have welded her hair to her head with.
- 56:25Speaker 1: Yeah, it worked.
- 56:26Speaker 3: An absolute fucking treat. It's it's it's it's. It's little
- 56:32Speaker 3: fixes like this time if you learn them.
- 56:33Speaker 1: Okay, you used to have. You used to have lads
- 56:36Speaker 1: that would do this this for your repair chaps. And
- 56:38Speaker 1: as as we're finding as time goes by, they're just
- 56:41Speaker 1: trying to get more your money out of them. I say,
- 56:43Speaker 1: I say, don't give it to them. If it is
- 56:45Speaker 1: within your remit to fix, see if you can fix it.
- 56:51Speaker 1: I know not everybody's going to be able to fix
- 56:52Speaker 1: an LG smart TV if it starts showing a burn
- 56:55Speaker 1: on the side of it. Yeah, you know, okay, fair enough,
- 56:59Speaker 1: but a couple of other appliance is about that. If
- 57:01Speaker 1: you haven't and of course, if you don't have hands
- 57:04Speaker 1: to fix things, don't touch them. I don't want people
- 57:07Speaker 1: fucking having hands amputated by dodgy doctors on account of
- 57:10Speaker 1: advice I gave them as to how they fix mixer.
- 57:13Speaker 2: So you yeah, you got got there's a great one
- 57:16Speaker 2: there before we sign off to people. So people are
- 57:17Speaker 2: going fox sake. It's all well, good for the fucking
- 57:19Speaker 2: leads fricking at these things, but I've never so much
- 57:21Speaker 2: as opened the fucking kind of fucking peaches. What do
- 57:25Speaker 2: they need as a starter kitcher? So you started with
- 57:27Speaker 2: the duster one. I am desperate get Canada dustin, Yeah,
- 57:31Speaker 2: can of dustin. And yet look, I'll tell you I
- 57:33Speaker 2: have everyone here beside me.
- 57:34Speaker 1: Tom.
- 57:36Speaker 3: That's a little set of screw set of screwdrivers.
- 57:39Speaker 1: And it's not like it's not like a watchmaker's it's
- 57:43Speaker 1: not like a watchmaker's set of screw drivers. They're not
- 57:45Speaker 1: that small, but it's not unlike you know, if your
- 57:48Speaker 1: if your mom ever had glasses, she might have a
- 57:49Speaker 1: wee screw driver that she gotten there.
- 57:51Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeh yeah, and.
- 57:52Speaker 1: The optictions for fixing her glasses to size. A little
- 57:54Speaker 1: set like that that has ten or fifteen various screw
- 57:58Speaker 1: tips on it, small ones. You don't need anything big, Tom,
- 58:01Speaker 1: you don't need big screwdrivers because you know, I use
- 58:04Speaker 1: this here just for taking apart game boys and things
- 58:06Speaker 1: like this.
- 58:07Speaker 3: And nearly little screws like that.
- 58:09Speaker 2: Nearly everything mechanical robotic electronic in the planet has been
- 58:16Speaker 2: opened and closed, and a YouTube video has been made.
- 58:19Speaker 1: About it exactly.
- 58:20Speaker 2: You don't be if you have a little in exactly
- 58:23Speaker 2: what you're looking for and take somebody like that.
- 58:25Speaker 3: Somebody's done it.
- 58:26Speaker 1: Yeah, let's set screwdrivers to that as well. Has things
- 58:30Speaker 1: that like if you if you have small electronics, and
- 58:32Speaker 1: like I say, I've been doing game bys and sit
- 58:33Speaker 1: like this to have real odd screw heads heads and
- 58:36Speaker 1: ship like that. So get get something like that and
- 58:38Speaker 1: I paid I think seven year old for that online.
- 58:42Speaker 1: Get a set of something that you can take things apart. Tom,
- 58:44Speaker 1: Get a can of dust and spray to blast things apart,
- 58:48Speaker 1: and get yourself a phone that can show you a
- 58:51Speaker 1: YouTube tutorial I found this evening. And you've got ninety
- 58:55Speaker 1: percent of what Tom and Jerry have after that, it's
- 58:58Speaker 1: just you. You won't the will does now.
- 59:01Speaker 2: I mean you're I'm not going to start telling you
- 59:02Speaker 2: to get in butchering things open and stuff like that.
- 59:04Speaker 2: Well you got a fucking blowhard, no, like if you
- 59:07Speaker 2: even you often see him in those those value supermarkets
- 59:11Speaker 2: that we this gus who want who haven't sponsored a
- 59:13Speaker 2: show and anyway, but there's two of them in Ireland
- 59:15Speaker 2: from based out of Germany. You'd often find that they
- 59:18Speaker 2: have their little freestanding vices that you can just clamp
- 59:21Speaker 2: together and they are actually I couldn't find a fucking
- 59:25Speaker 2: use for that thing for love of money until really
- 59:27Speaker 2: I I started fixing gear here, like bits of toys. Yeah,
- 59:31Speaker 2: and there was a one that had so a boats
- 59:33Speaker 2: to your table and then it has a little vice
- 59:36Speaker 2: but it's nearly on a pivoted head so you can
- 59:37Speaker 2: actually toot to towards yourself and fuck I must have
- 59:41Speaker 2: used it forty times in the last couple of months
- 59:43Speaker 2: for just fixing out shite belonging to the young fla
- 59:46Speaker 2: like oh.
- 59:46Speaker 1: I remember with the wee man all as we Thomas
- 59:48Speaker 1: trains and and like you know, you'd snapped the coupling
- 59:50Speaker 1: of you'd snapped the coupling of a thing, don't throw
- 59:53Speaker 1: that out. Just get some way troublesome truck or something
- 59:56Speaker 1: and screw that apart. Take the couple of it, put
- 59:58Speaker 1: it on the good train way you go.
- 1:00:00Speaker 2: You'd be amazed the amount of things that, by metric
- 1:00:04Speaker 2: all fit together, isn't it. You'll take it off another
- 1:00:06Speaker 2: young jeez. That a genius and you're like, not really
- 1:00:10Speaker 2: desired like that, Just like four factories in the whole
- 1:00:12Speaker 2: world making these things, and they all they all up.
- 1:00:15Speaker 2: It's not like fucking chargers for phones. They don't just
- 1:00:18Speaker 2: you know where they just do whatever they fuck they want.
- 1:00:21Speaker 2: Like they can take all under under the same remit.
- 1:00:23Speaker 3: Like if you're if you're if you're.
- 1:00:25Speaker 1: So inclined, get a soldern iron and that's that's. You
- 1:00:29Speaker 1: might think that'll be beyond you a wee bit, But
- 1:00:32Speaker 1: a lot of the times, if I've taken something apart
- 1:00:34Speaker 1: and it's not working, it's because one of the solar
- 1:00:36Speaker 1: giants has gotten just as slightly wee bit too dry,
- 1:00:39Speaker 1: and you're like, how do I fix that? I can
- 1:00:41Speaker 1: do it, you know, hold the soldern iron to it
- 1:00:44Speaker 1: until the solder melts, take the soldern iron away, The
- 1:00:46Speaker 1: solder goes hard again and has trapped whatever it was
- 1:00:49Speaker 1: supposed to trap in. It takes ten seconds and it
- 1:00:52Speaker 1: will either fix it, break it completely, or do nothing.
- 1:00:56Speaker 3: Yeah, so trust Jerry.
- 1:00:59Speaker 1: If he can do it, it's gonna be trust the
- 1:01:02Speaker 1: Tom and Jerry Show. And if I see one more
- 1:01:04Speaker 1: of his throwing a perfectly good fucking air fryer in
- 1:01:08Speaker 1: the dump, Dan cool mind, gonna lose Tom. Oh my god,
- 1:01:14Speaker 1: have we given people terrible advice this week when it
- 1:01:17Speaker 1: comes to fixing things. Maybe people have money to throw
- 1:01:19Speaker 1: away these days. I don't know, as far as I
- 1:01:21Speaker 1: was concerned. The economy is doing good these days, question Mark. Anyway,
- 1:01:26Speaker 1: we we we do.
- 1:01:27Speaker 2: We look at it's you don't have to solidly take
- 1:01:31Speaker 2: our advice. But if you stand back and think about
- 1:01:33Speaker 2: a thing, just don't fuck it away straight away. That's
- 1:01:36Speaker 2: what we're trying to say. There's a strong possibility that
- 1:01:39Speaker 2: would have been insulating tape, snips, Jerry, soldier and iron.
- 1:01:42Speaker 3: And maybe a couple of small scooter. But you'll get
- 1:01:45Speaker 3: a and awful other things.
- 1:01:48Speaker 1: You know, this isn't at least get another six months
- 1:01:52Speaker 1: and you know. You can tell us all about it,
- 1:01:54Speaker 1: by the way, on the very active and very working
