- 0:07Speaker 1: you to change your voice. I said, I'd given a
- 0:10Speaker 1: go myself. Let's see how it works. Oh good, heavens,
- 0:16Speaker 1: it certainly seems to be working. But one doesn't quite
- 0:20Speaker 1: have the time to be trifling on such trivial things.
- 0:24Speaker 1: One has a great, big, bloody chimney that one must
- 0:27Speaker 1: not to the ground before enjoying a refreshing pint of bitter. Now,
- 0:33Speaker 1: let me just turn off this infernal machine. All that's better.

- 2:57Speaker 2: I swear to God, when you listen to that back,
- 3:00Speaker 2: You're gonna love you in Japanese.
- 3:01Speaker 3: If that if that comes back across the podcast where
- 3:04Speaker 3: I'm speaking in Japanese to Tom, that's gonna be very funny.
- 3:08Speaker 3: If it comes back on the podcast where I'm just
- 3:10Speaker 3: speaking English, Dorm's passing himself, that's something nobody else can hear.
- 3:15Speaker 3: That's gonna also be hilarious.
- 3:19Speaker 2: I feel like I'm the only one getting this joke.
- 3:21Speaker 2: I don't know how the recording of this is going
- 3:23Speaker 2: to see. This is this is the thing we do.
- 3:24Speaker 2: That's we We just run with it. We didn't. I
- 3:27Speaker 2: literally found that beforehand, or mother, that was exciting. I
- 3:32Speaker 2: I do you know what, I do feel embarrassed sometimes
- 3:34Speaker 2: because I just literally came off the phone just before
- 3:37Speaker 2: this with my brother in law who lives in Central
- 3:39Speaker 2: Europe and he speaks five languages. Yes, now he lets
- 3:45Speaker 2: you know too. That's the that's the only thing. That's
- 3:47Speaker 2: the only thing like there. I'd love to know more languages.
- 3:52Speaker 2: But at the same time, I think it's almost like
- 3:54Speaker 2: the vegan effect, you know, the kind of way they'll
- 3:57Speaker 2: fuck can let you know like I was at I
- 4:00Speaker 2: told you as I tell you I was. I was
- 4:01Speaker 2: sitting beside the table full of Grailgoorers the other night
- 4:03Speaker 2: in the restaurant, and they all spoke Irish and heavily,
- 4:07Speaker 2: and they wouldn't even back it up for the girl
- 4:09Speaker 2: taking their order. Do you know she's taking an order
- 4:11Speaker 2: sixteen people and you're like, oh Jesus Christ, be me
- 4:15Speaker 2: and my gas.
- 4:16Speaker 3: I love, I love Irish and I love people that
- 4:18Speaker 3: can speak it.
- 4:18Speaker 2: But lads, you can wind it in. But we get it.
- 4:22Speaker 2: We get we get it. You're better than us, we
- 4:24Speaker 2: get it, we get it.
- 4:26Speaker 3: We're trash people.
- 4:27Speaker 2: What can we get?
- 4:27Speaker 3: We're absolutely trash. Maybe maybe the young lassie that's taking
- 4:30Speaker 3: your order, tell her that you want chicken and chips.
- 4:33Speaker 3: Tell her you want wings as a starter.
- 4:35Speaker 2: In English, please.
- 4:38Speaker 3: Love the Hiking, Love Shaking play.
- 4:45Speaker 2: Do you speak any other languages?
- 4:47Speaker 3: I know of other languages, only the love language. I
- 4:51Speaker 3: speak the language of podcasts and baby, oh wow, speaking
- 4:55Speaker 3: of which we we should probably start doing a bit
- 4:56Speaker 3: of podcast I mean, like, oh, you know, I love Gragnda,
- 5:00Speaker 3: but we've been talking more in Japanese and Irish than
- 5:04Speaker 3: anything else before we got into the show. And we've
- 5:06Speaker 3: got a fairly big week to get into.
- 5:09Speaker 2: So what do you think will we busted into it?
- 5:12Speaker 3: Yeah, let's get into it. YEA, let's do it, buddy,
- 5:14Speaker 3: let's get it. Get into it with a weekly what
- 5:16Speaker 3: have you. This is a very complicated case, mad, you know,
- 5:19Speaker 3: a lot of ian's, a lot of outs, a lot
- 5:21Speaker 3: of what have you, and a lot of strands to
- 5:24Speaker 3: keep in my head.
- 5:24Speaker 2: Man, oh for fox, excuse it? Like we tried to
- 5:28Speaker 2: steer away from these scenarios. Do you know?
- 5:32Speaker 3: We don't like talking about the same thing over and
- 5:34Speaker 3: over again? And if people listening to the Tom and
- 5:36Speaker 3: Jerry Show down through the years and we thank them,
- 5:39Speaker 3: they'll know we like to talk about a couple of things.
- 5:42Speaker 3: We like to talk about robots. We like to talk
- 5:47Speaker 3: the cars. I'd like to talk about robots again after
- 5:50Speaker 3: a little while. And every now and then we will
- 5:53Speaker 3: come all the way round to the sea and how
- 5:57Speaker 3: we do not like the sea, and how, in the
- 6:01Speaker 3: immortal words of Tom o'manny almost ten years ago, when
- 6:06Speaker 3: it comes to the sea, fill.
- 6:08Speaker 2: It into fuck. I got somebody very irate by saying
- 6:12Speaker 2: that the other day they'd hurt it on the podcast,
- 6:14Speaker 2: and they weren't fully sure of the context. They didn't
- 6:16Speaker 2: know the long back story. They were like, what do
- 6:18Speaker 2: you mean filling into fuck? I was like, filling into
- 6:21Speaker 2: fuck begun, But there is no long backstory. Tom.
- 6:24Speaker 3: We were we were sitting looking out of the sea
- 6:26Speaker 3: and black rock. You pointed at the sea and said,
- 6:29Speaker 3: you see all that. You know what I do with it?
- 6:31Speaker 2: Yeah? But what I think the way they picked it
- 6:34Speaker 2: up was like, just like that mid mid sentence in
- 6:36Speaker 2: the mid podcast very recently where I said fill it
- 6:39Speaker 2: into fuck. This is a person who absolutely adoors driving
- 6:44Speaker 2: from inland Tipperary to the coast in traffic, in heat,
- 6:50Speaker 2: kids sweating ice cream, stucks in the back.
- 6:52Speaker 3: They're in heat.
- 6:53Speaker 2: Yeah, well they're in heat, send stuck all over every
- 6:56Speaker 2: fucking thing, only just to convince themselves and their neighbors
- 6:59Speaker 2: that they had a really good time. I had to
- 7:02Speaker 2: see you did, Yeah you did. Yeah. Yeah.
- 7:05Speaker 3: Well listen, if you go down to the sea today,
- 7:07Speaker 3: you're in for a big fucking surprise. You go into
- 7:10Speaker 3: the Pacific Ocean. Every now and then, folks like I say,
- 7:13Speaker 3: it's just like our hatred of the sea is justified.
- 7:17Speaker 3: I'm gonna read you a headline. I sent it to Tom,
- 7:19Speaker 3: and I just sent him the headline and said fill
- 7:23Speaker 3: it in to fuck and.
- 7:25Speaker 2: For those and for those in the back. I'll repeat
- 7:29Speaker 2: it again if we goz on the back. Okay.
- 7:32Speaker 3: A headline in Popular Mechanics dot com and in need
- 7:35Speaker 3: various other places. So we have verified this. Four black
- 7:39Speaker 3: eggs surfaced from the dark heart of the ocean with
- 7:43Speaker 3: alien creatures inside.
- 7:46Speaker 4: Oh, for folk's sake, listen, I'm gonna just say a
- 7:50Speaker 4: couple of things here.
- 7:51Speaker 3: Tom, If you find a dark egg anywhere, leave it there.
- 7:55Speaker 2: Yeah, live it off, Live it off. It's a delicacy
- 7:57Speaker 2: in some areas, in some places, all right, jerdy to
- 8:00Speaker 2: talk about it, you know they lead they'll use squeez
- 8:03Speaker 2: ink or whatever, the dyeing egg. No, they found four
- 8:06Speaker 2: jet black egg glactless egg things stock to a rock
- 8:12Speaker 2: five thousand meters or five thousand met yeah, five thousand
- 8:16Speaker 2: and five fucking kilometers. What are you doing down there?
- 8:19Speaker 2: What are you going five kilometers?
- 8:20Speaker 3: Are looking for?
- 8:21Speaker 2: What are you looking for? What are you hoping to find?
- 8:24Speaker 3: Do you know what I mean?
- 8:24Speaker 2: Because you go down there and you'll dispel any fun
- 8:26Speaker 2: myths like you found Atlantis. You're just gonna and find
- 8:30Speaker 2: horrific things that are eventually going to end the planet.
- 8:33Speaker 2: Do you know what that?
- 8:33Speaker 3: Do you know what? They always say, like they get
- 8:35Speaker 3: so they get so pleased with themselves.
- 8:36Speaker 2: These marine biologists.
- 8:38Speaker 3: They say, oh, actually, you know, we know more about
- 8:41Speaker 3: the surface of Mars than we do. And I'm like,
- 8:45Speaker 3: you know what, Lad's keep it that way.
- 8:47Speaker 2: Yeah, because they found these a type of flatworm. They
- 8:53Speaker 2: call it a flat worm, which they say so strange.
- 8:56Speaker 2: These guys normally live with much shallower waters. Yeah, did
- 9:00Speaker 2: they live inside black eggs stuck to sorry, a chunk
- 9:03Speaker 2: of wood that they found five kilometers down For the
- 9:07Speaker 2: Americans in the audience, that's three point two kilometer or
- 9:10Speaker 2: miles down. Yeah, no business going down there. If delighted
- 9:14Speaker 2: that they found these things, let's bring I tell you
- 9:15Speaker 2: what we did, Let's bring them up. Let's bring them
- 9:17Speaker 2: up to the surface.
- 9:19Speaker 3: It means not to nobody, but that's from my house
- 9:21Speaker 3: to the Blanche Center. Yeah.
- 9:24Speaker 2: You wouldn't walk it, as you You wouldn't fucking walk it.
- 9:27Speaker 2: I will say.
- 9:27Speaker 3: Whoever it was the editor on that particular piece because
- 9:31Speaker 3: someone else did the same thing.
- 9:33Speaker 2: Alien species inside.
- 9:35Speaker 3: They had the there's a bit of the sequesce DSV
- 9:39Speaker 3: about the whole thing. They're they're Babylon five people with
- 9:43Speaker 3: alien creatures inside. What they mean to say is that
- 9:46Speaker 3: the creatures are not known to live in that particular habitat.
- 9:50Speaker 3: They are alien to the area, Yes they are not.
- 9:53Speaker 3: What we would know is being extra terrestrials.
- 9:56Speaker 2: Like if you find Jerry in Johannesburg exactly, but and
- 10:02Speaker 2: he's going around going hey, you actually you know, like
- 10:04Speaker 2: something would be.
- 10:05Speaker 3: Up, but it SNDS like Sting in New York.
- 10:08Speaker 2: In the same sense, I'd be fairly suspicious of a
- 10:11Speaker 2: kind of a German Bridefelw I'd meet in Johannesburg two though,
- 10:14Speaker 2: and he'd be.
- 10:15Speaker 3: Fairly suspicious about any fucking egg that's five mile down
- 10:19Speaker 3: down down in the ocean.
- 10:20Speaker 2: Tom.
- 10:21Speaker 3: To be honest with you, leave it there. God don't
- 10:24Speaker 3: want you down there. Yeah, leave it be.
- 10:28Speaker 2: Now, can I describe what Tokyo University of It's the
- 10:35Speaker 2: Hockey Idol University. This guy's on the filter again there
- 10:40Speaker 2: for I did so. This is I'm assuming he's a
- 10:45Speaker 2: doctor or maybe at this day's professor where you lose
- 10:48Speaker 2: your dr Oh, he's got a master in fucking go eggs. Yeah,
- 10:52Speaker 2: because his name is Kii Kayo call Kako, So I
- 10:56Speaker 2: mean ideal that, by the way, who co authored at
- 10:58Speaker 2: twenty twenty four stood about the discovery in the Journal for
- 11:02Speaker 2: Biology Lessons and IFL Science, which we've we've cited a
- 11:06Speaker 2: good few times. I FL Science, Yes, we haven't. He
- 11:10Speaker 2: I know, I'm I don't know. Should I bother down
- 11:12Speaker 2: the accent because it's so good and am I confused?
- 11:14Speaker 2: So let's just say it in my voice? Yeah, let's
- 11:17Speaker 2: not say we did. Okay, No, I'm not. I love
- 11:24Speaker 2: the Japanese accent.
- 11:26Speaker 3: But the only love having a podcast. Tom look it.
- 11:31Speaker 2: So he's out comes out comes, uh kaichi and he says,
- 11:35Speaker 2: under a sterry microsope, which is a right small one,
- 11:39Speaker 2: I caught one of them. Of course you did. Of
- 11:42Speaker 2: course you did. And hold on, hold on to your
- 11:46Speaker 2: Prometheus fucking underpants here and milky liquid like thing leaked
- 11:52Speaker 2: from it. After blowing the milky thing with a pipet. Yeah,
- 11:58Speaker 2: I found fragile white body in the shell and first
- 12:02Speaker 2: realize that it was a cocoon of platty hell mints.
- 12:09Speaker 2: Now has anybody I ingested one of them?
- 12:14Speaker 3: And now the platty helmets are speaking to you through me? Yeah,
- 12:19Speaker 3: give me salt water.
- 12:23Speaker 2: Now, look at. I don't like to get racial on
- 12:28Speaker 2: these things.
- 12:29Speaker 3: Right, but I don't like you getting rachel on them either.
- 12:34Speaker 2: I love all things Japan, but I've seen enough Japanese movies.
- 12:39Speaker 2: I e. Kaiju, fucking Pacific rim. You name the version
- 12:46Speaker 2: of Godzilla, I've seen it because a big Godzilla fan
- 12:49Speaker 2: this house. I'm telling you right now, one thing shit
- 12:53Speaker 2: goes down in the Pacific Ocean under the guidance are
- 12:57Speaker 2: the watch of the Japanese. Yes, then shit like if
- 13:02Speaker 2: those yokes are found between Wexford and Wales, I wouldn't
- 13:06Speaker 2: be stressed if it was you know, dat feed and
- 13:10Speaker 2: Seamus on a combined fucking craft brought it up and
- 13:13Speaker 2: opened it up with aer let's have a look at.
- 13:16Speaker 2: I just wouldn't be stressed. But whatever it is about
- 13:19Speaker 2: Japanese scientists going at alien life forms they found in
- 13:23Speaker 2: the Pacific Ocean, you know this story has been told before.
- 13:27Speaker 3: Jar and not for nothing as well. If you're off
- 13:30Speaker 3: the coast of Bikini atoll or any of them places,
- 13:32Speaker 3: Like there is not for nothing a little bit of
- 13:34Speaker 3: RADII active soup floating around in the water, So you.
- 13:38Speaker 2: Know, SpongeBob is from there, for folk's sake.
- 13:41Speaker 3: Like all you want to do is just like all
- 13:43Speaker 3: your man wanted to do was just like hiccup and
- 13:46Speaker 3: drop it on the ground and it just sort of
- 13:48Speaker 3: pissed everywhere, like the green stuff in the rock, and
- 13:51Speaker 3: it starts melting from the inside out.
- 13:53Speaker 2: This is how pro media started. They all, yeah, climbs
- 13:56Speaker 2: in through your eye and then before you know it,
- 13:58Speaker 2: you've got, you know, an extra claw grown out where
- 14:01Speaker 2: your flute was, and now you're trying to kill the
- 14:03Speaker 2: rest of the lab. Yeah, like that's where it begins
- 14:07Speaker 2: and ends.
- 14:07Speaker 3: Yeaps, this is just Resident Evil all over again.
- 14:10Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, Resident Evil all over again. Suffered, sweet
- 14:15Speaker 2: suffern Jesus and delights with themselves.
- 14:19Speaker 3: They are with They are delighted as as these men
- 14:21Speaker 3: of sayings always are. They are delighted with themselves. Do
- 14:24Speaker 3: you know who they are? They're like Miles Dice and
- 14:26Speaker 3: tapping away in his computer, going like I'm having a
- 14:28Speaker 3: fucking great time. We found a chip at work. It
- 14:30Speaker 3: was a little broken, but God damn it, we're bringing
- 14:32Speaker 3: it back to life. We're having a wonderful time. And
- 14:34Speaker 3: then all of a sudden he's making terminators and ruining
- 14:37Speaker 3: the world. That's what these lads are doing.
- 14:38Speaker 2: Mm.
- 14:39Speaker 3: So like deadly, we found like a We found it
- 14:41Speaker 3: like a little egg, not where it was supposed to be,
- 14:43Speaker 3: in a place that God did not intend us to go.
- 14:45Speaker 3: And then like twelve months later, Japan stomped on by
- 14:50Speaker 3: a cloverfield monster.
- 14:52Speaker 2: Now this was another bit where it said unsure what
- 14:56Speaker 2: these eggs were University of Tokyo Marines or a searcher, yes,
- 14:59Speaker 2: and no Ricano who is at the controls of the
- 15:03Speaker 2: r V at the time, I guess, and you know
- 15:04Speaker 2: the deep sea machine claw machine to retrieve us the egg.
- 15:11Speaker 2: She says. Although most of the eggs were torn and empty,
- 15:18Speaker 2: at least four of them remained intact, and Kano sent
- 15:21Speaker 2: these undisturbed specimens to a team of a verteber biologists.
- 15:26Speaker 3: Grace okay, well, seen a movie before time. I know
- 15:30Speaker 3: what's about to happen here. The mother is going to
- 15:34Speaker 3: come to reclaim her children that you have stolen.
- 15:38Speaker 2: Exactly what the fuck.
- 15:42Speaker 3: Do you not have?
- 15:43Speaker 2: Netflix? In Japan. Clearly not they have Jesus Christ. Like
- 15:48Speaker 2: you've been making Godzilla movies since they looked shit, do
- 15:52Speaker 2: you know what I mean? Looked like a fella in
- 15:53Speaker 2: the paper Mashe outfit kicking over your cities and ripping
- 15:56Speaker 2: down your pilons back since the sixties. And you can't
- 16:00Speaker 2: see this how this one pans out Like if they found,
- 16:04Speaker 2: you know, a strange looking platypus, they found, if they
- 16:07Speaker 2: found a mammal of some sort, I go, all right,
- 16:10Speaker 2: but you found clearly something that comes from an egg.
- 16:14Speaker 2: Reptiles come from an egg, Dear Kaiju, come from eggs.
- 16:17Speaker 2: I'm just saying, look.
- 16:20Speaker 3: You know what doesn't come from eggs?
- 16:21Speaker 2: Tom Koalas, Now you're talking, Yeah, now you're talking. I mean,
- 16:26Speaker 2: here we are thinking. The scariest thing on the planet
- 16:28Speaker 2: is the honey badger. Do you know what the honey
- 16:30Speaker 2: badger does? Mind his own fucking business, wandering around the place,
- 16:32Speaker 2: just eating snakes and stuff. These fucking bolloxes went fucking
- 16:36Speaker 2: three and a half miles under the ocean to go.
- 16:39Speaker 2: Do you know what?
- 16:39Speaker 3: We need to give you one question, Tom, Let me
- 16:41Speaker 3: give you one question and then we'll move off this subject. Right,
- 16:45Speaker 3: So even all the way down to the bottom of
- 16:46Speaker 3: the bottom of the world to find weird eggs that
- 16:51Speaker 3: you didn't think would be there, and you brought them
- 16:54Speaker 3: back up you discovered it was a mysterious type of flatworm. Correct, wonderful.
- 17:00Speaker 3: So fucking what what now? What are you going to
- 17:03Speaker 3: use that for? What's all that effort for. See, they're
- 17:06Speaker 3: not mad at you, buddy, I'm just mad.
- 17:08Speaker 2: See I don't I don't want inhibiting. I'm not one
- 17:10Speaker 2: of these people that says, no inhibit all, you know,
- 17:14Speaker 2: creativity moving forward?
- 17:16Speaker 3: Are they are these cancer solving flatworms? Is this like
- 17:19Speaker 3: a massive leap forward or is it just one of
- 17:21Speaker 3: these ones where you're.
- 17:22Speaker 2: Like, hah, look at that this you see they do?
- 17:26Speaker 2: You know? This is now? This is if ever I
- 17:29Speaker 2: saw it, shovel and fucking light into dark corners. This
- 17:32Speaker 2: is the kind of stuff like getting the government contract
- 17:34Speaker 2: to keep lads busy. Do you know they used to
- 17:36Speaker 2: they like they land the gentry used to build a
- 17:39Speaker 2: folly every so often, you know, they build up a
- 17:40Speaker 2: fucking you know, an obelisk or whatever out in the
- 17:43Speaker 2: middle of killed there somewhere, some fielding. And it was
- 17:45Speaker 2: only just to keep the fucking grunt irish at work.
- 17:48Speaker 2: Just keep them fucking busy doing something to be at
- 17:51Speaker 2: That's all I'm seeing this ship now, they like they're
- 17:53Speaker 2: not bringing it back up going Finally we found the
- 17:56Speaker 2: holy grail of fucking you know, life extension.
- 18:00Speaker 3: They didn't even they didn't even find something that we're
- 18:02Speaker 3: looking for. They just kind of were like, huh, they
- 18:04Speaker 3: were surprised. They were surprised as you me, to find
- 18:07Speaker 3: the fucking thing.
- 18:07Speaker 2: Do you know what these are? Now? These are the
- 18:09Speaker 2: middle aisle in little Morality, you go, they went down
- 18:12Speaker 2: there looking for I'm hoping they got funded to go
- 18:15Speaker 2: down there to look for something specific. Let's try and
- 18:18Speaker 2: find a new type of shark, some cool shit that
- 18:20Speaker 2: we can just just tell people about. Oh class, what's that?
- 18:25Speaker 2: It's an impact driver and a fucking black egg stuck
- 18:28Speaker 2: to a lump of wood five mile five kilometers down here.
- 18:31Speaker 2: Let's buy the impact. Oh fuck, you gotta buy the
- 18:33Speaker 2: battery as well. That let's just take the four eggs
- 18:36Speaker 2: there for not take the four eggs, and let's caut
- 18:39Speaker 2: them open and watch the milky fluid pour out, and
- 18:41Speaker 2: then some sort of tiny flatworms.
- 18:43Speaker 3: Wiggle all over your fucking brilliant.
- 18:45Speaker 2: Your egg guard guard dish, and you know we'll do
- 18:48Speaker 2: We'll leave the fucking fridge unlocked that you put it in,
- 18:51Speaker 2: and then wander on out, so that the unwilling security
- 18:54Speaker 2: guard who's trying to chat up you want at the
- 18:56Speaker 2: front desk during the night shift, is sipping a something
- 19:00Speaker 2: coffee and as he does, and he's checking the bottom
- 19:02Speaker 2: of it, and he's gotten three aces a big fucking
- 19:06Speaker 2: alien tapeworm, fucking spike goes straight through the bottom of
- 19:09Speaker 2: the cup and up through his fucking head. And now
- 19:11Speaker 2: that thing takes the shape of him and walks out
- 19:14Speaker 2: and steals a motorbike.
- 19:16Speaker 3: Yeah, just just just you know, and then give it
- 19:21Speaker 3: six months time. You know whose problem it is? Your mind?
- 19:24Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 19:25Speaker 3: Yeah, as night follows day, as the night follows day,
- 19:29Speaker 3: I'm gonna get away from these fucking things.
- 19:31Speaker 2: Seric Can I can I close off with one thing
- 19:34Speaker 2: and that more? No one, No, it's quite simply my
- 19:37Speaker 2: my closing statement as always when it comes to these
- 19:39Speaker 2: kind of things. Oh yeah, oh yeah, you gotta, it's
- 19:41Speaker 2: gotta be said. But filling into fuck, fill it into fuck.
- 19:47Speaker 3: Yeah. If we sold March, we have t shirts would
- 19:49Speaker 3: fill it into funck on it.
- 19:51Speaker 2: We should totally do that. I bet a I could
- 19:53Speaker 2: probably do that for us right now, filling into.
- 19:55Speaker 3: Fuck an artist.
- 19:57Speaker 2: I suppose you know, I'd sooner pay an artist atually. Yeah,
- 20:00Speaker 2: it's sooner pay an artist to do. Yeah, we've got
- 20:03Speaker 2: any good artists out there?
- 20:04Speaker 3: I tell you right this minute time, we don't have
- 20:06Speaker 3: artists paying money between us.
- 20:08Speaker 2: But I'll tell you what we do have.
- 20:09Speaker 3: We have the next segment of the show where we
- 20:12Speaker 3: stopped talking about this ladd and those lads and the
- 20:14Speaker 3: other lads and talk about this lad.
- 20:19Speaker 2: Now there's that guy and the high altitude.
- 20:21Speaker 3: This lad and he had company.
- 20:24Speaker 2: They hated hated a couple of prize ballockses here.
- 20:27Speaker 3: Now, I am surprised that you did not like these people,
- 20:30Speaker 3: because you know, I would have thought that there's like
- 20:33Speaker 3: a level of daring do shall we say? But you're
- 20:38Speaker 3: not the daring do no?
- 20:40Speaker 2: But again tis like the fucking eggs of the ocean.
- 20:42Speaker 2: What's the point of it?
- 20:44Speaker 3: All?
- 20:44Speaker 5: Right?
- 20:44Speaker 2: You know the people that filled the people in there
- 20:46Speaker 2: who were essentially they were talking about those two daredevil
- 20:48Speaker 2: climbers from last week in New York City up on
- 20:52Speaker 2: the Empire State Building. They pulled off a stunt, this couple,
- 20:58Speaker 2: where they climbed to the very top of the radio antenna,
- 21:01Speaker 2: the radio antennas I think thirteen hundred feet up in
- 21:05Speaker 2: the air and now we'll speaking feet because it's America,
- 21:08Speaker 2: and they do like you know, old fashioned measuring ship,
- 21:12Speaker 2: so they thirteen hundred feet. This this couple who are
- 21:17Speaker 2: who are?
- 21:18Speaker 3: As? They report every now and then in Ireland known
- 21:21Speaker 3: to the Guardy.
- 21:22Speaker 2: They are known to the Guardian, but they're known to
- 21:24Speaker 2: everybody these foxtair when you're looking at you do you
- 21:27Speaker 2: might have known him? There? Angela Nicola and Ivan Good.
- 21:31Speaker 2: This numb off right. They're not from Limerick. They're they're
- 21:40Speaker 2: they're of Russian origin, these two, and this is their ship.
- 21:44Speaker 2: He's a trained like they're trained. They both are trained
- 21:49Speaker 2: Russian circus artists and they've been doing this kind of
- 21:52Speaker 2: ship all over the world but with permission, right, So
- 21:55Speaker 2: this was kind of the thing before they.
- 21:57Speaker 3: Were in the second Yeah, there was there was.
- 22:00Speaker 2: Like they had a show back, like there was a
- 22:02Speaker 2: show made and a documentary following them called Skywalker's a
- 22:05Speaker 2: Love Story.
- 22:06Speaker 3: So these these are these are and a time oral
- 22:09Speaker 3: tradition of people that would just climb buildings. Tom, We've
- 22:12Speaker 3: all heard stories of the human spider and the fucking
- 22:16Speaker 3: the French.
- 22:17Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 22:18Speaker 3: Yeah, the French guy tightrope walking between the two towers.
- 22:21Speaker 3: The twin towers A beg, pardon two towers is typing.
- 22:25Speaker 3: He wasn't walking between barrad Or and sarah Man's gap.
- 22:34Speaker 2: I'm above the ox. Oh that's both brilliant and fucking nerdy,
- 22:42Speaker 2: all at the same time that I'm kind of happy
- 22:44Speaker 2: and raging, And I totally get that he alienated of
- 22:48Speaker 2: our audience.
- 22:49Speaker 3: But it.
- 22:51Speaker 2: Was a Lord of the Rings reference there, that's listen.
- 22:54Speaker 3: Okay. So so so, these these people are known to
- 22:56Speaker 3: the authorities for this kind of ship, and in their
- 22:58Speaker 3: latest active daring, do they climbed up the Empire State Building?
- 23:07Speaker 3: I have questions?
- 23:08Speaker 2: Yeah, fire away.
- 23:10Speaker 3: So I've been on top of I've been lucky enough
- 23:12Speaker 3: in my life to have been on top of the
- 23:13Speaker 3: Empire State Building.
- 23:14Speaker 2: And they make.
- 23:15Speaker 3: It to the average person completely impossible to go any
- 23:20Speaker 3: further than the observation deck. Okay, so to get any
- 23:24Speaker 3: for it, like, you know, because you can't just be
- 23:25Speaker 3: fucking jumping off doing that ship. They circumvented all of
- 23:32Speaker 3: this to get past the observation deck up onto the
- 23:35Speaker 3: antenna and then climb up.
- 23:37Speaker 2: The rest of it.
- 23:38Speaker 3: Ah, they say they had no permission to do this.
- 23:43Speaker 3: My spidy senses, tingling tom something tells me they had.
- 23:46Speaker 2: Some little bit of a go ahead. They reckon well
- 23:49Speaker 2: and shake deal. Perhaps what security security services have? I
- 23:55Speaker 2: said that they reckon well, they saw the lock on
- 23:59Speaker 2: the one hundred and second floor was actually broken, but
- 24:03Speaker 2: they reckon They couldn't commit. They must have snuck in
- 24:05Speaker 2: at the end of the tour the night before, which
- 24:08Speaker 2: is where all good heightst movies, you know, which is
- 24:12Speaker 2: where all good heightst movies begin, Where you get in
- 24:15Speaker 2: the night before and you close it quietly behind you.
- 24:18Speaker 2: So that's what they reckon they did. And then there's
- 24:21Speaker 2: a hatch then up on the one hundred and fourth floor,
- 24:24Speaker 2: and you can put at that stage is probably not
- 24:27Speaker 2: a ton scure at that point because you shouldn't have
- 24:29Speaker 2: gotten through the hundred and second So yeah, they reckon
- 24:33Speaker 2: they got in the night before. But I was thinking
- 24:35Speaker 2: the same thing because do you know what these do?
- 24:38Speaker 2: You know what they are there? And this is not
- 24:40Speaker 2: getting completely out the fense and closing it, closing the story.
- 24:43Speaker 2: They were an unbelievable distraction for about about twelve or
- 24:49Speaker 2: thirteen hours on American TV. And I'm always suspicious because
- 24:53Speaker 2: American TV is crooked in every fucking direction. There's a
- 24:57Speaker 2: week there was a weird amount of Ah, sure, look
- 25:01Speaker 2: at do you know what I mean?
- 25:02Speaker 3: Do you think this was You think this was just
- 25:04Speaker 3: like key's key's being dangled in front of her face?
- 25:07Speaker 2: I think I think they don't distract a cat. I
- 25:10Speaker 2: think some Middle Eastern country had been fucking raised to
- 25:14Speaker 2: the ground Cromwellian style, only with fucking nukes, or there
- 25:19Speaker 2: was some new fucking scabby bill being passed. Do you
- 25:21Speaker 2: know what I mean?
- 25:22Speaker 3: Where that's miserable, They're going to steal the marrow out
- 25:25Speaker 3: of your bones. Mitch McConnell had collapsed on the floor
- 25:29Speaker 3: of the Senate. Yeah, carried out weekend at Bernie's style
- 25:33Speaker 3: and point the fucking camera somewhere else.
- 25:37Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 25:37Speaker 3: They unfolded the banner at the top of this tarror
- 25:39Speaker 3: tom like. They didn't just go up and pass around above.
- 25:43Speaker 3: And it must be said that these are this is
- 25:45Speaker 3: a couple.
- 25:47Speaker 2: It's a couple.
- 25:47Speaker 3: They're married.
- 25:48Speaker 2: Yeah, they are married and they're both of Russian descent,
- 25:51Speaker 2: which is kind of hilarious in one way by all
- 25:55Speaker 2: accounts that opened. I don't know what that open dialogue,
- 25:57Speaker 2: because it would seem two days later Trump and Putting
- 26:00Speaker 2: had a ninety minute call on the phone, So I
- 26:02Speaker 2: don't know. You'll see crazy bustards from since Petersburg, the
- 26:07Speaker 2: very good climbers and know, well, would you have to
- 26:10Speaker 2: do any better claimber? You know buildings like I do?
- 26:14Speaker 2: You know, it's it smells like the the the security firm.
- 26:20Speaker 2: And this is what kind of throws me. I work
- 26:23Speaker 2: for a very big security firm in America and they
- 26:28Speaker 2: were they were called Pinkerton. They've been the old security
- 26:30Speaker 2: firm Pinkerton. But this security firm just gonna put it
- 26:37Speaker 2: out there. Their name is Doyle Security Services, which to
- 26:40Speaker 2: me sounds more like a security services that look after
- 26:44Speaker 2: building sites in bray. You know, now I'm not I'm
- 26:47Speaker 2: not undermining Doyle Security Services, but if I know, Paddy,
- 26:53Speaker 2: a few pounds, could you could turn on a plank?
- 26:59Speaker 3: We're we're thinking kind of like the fixes in a
- 27:02Speaker 3: little bit. The Pinkertons are a the agency that's hundreds
- 27:08Speaker 3: of years old.
- 27:08Speaker 2: Yes.
- 27:09Speaker 3: And I remember in the TV show Deadwood, the only
- 27:13Speaker 3: al Sweringen was afraid of was the Pinkerton's coming to
- 27:16Speaker 3: Deadwood and fucking kicking off Pinkerton's no mess around even
- 27:20Speaker 3: to this day. They unfolded the banner. They got to
- 27:22Speaker 3: the very tip top of the antenna, and the unfurled
- 27:26Speaker 3: banner that said, when the power of love beats the
- 27:28Speaker 3: love of power, the world will know peace. Yeah. Yeah,
- 27:36Speaker 3: it's nice rhymes, you know.
- 27:40Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean here's the thing, as you know, don't
- 27:45Speaker 2: have to get too judge here, but like they climbed
- 27:47Speaker 2: up there, they're giving it all the big one, like
- 27:49Speaker 2: they love each other and all the rest of it.
- 27:53Speaker 2: You put any other lens on that situation, and I'm
- 27:56Speaker 2: not getting into it right but people will know what
- 27:58Speaker 2: I'm talking about. But you put to any other lens
- 28:01Speaker 2: other than two. Yeah, no healthy at white attractive white
- 28:06Speaker 2: people on top of the Empire state.
- 28:10Speaker 3: Banner.
- 28:11Speaker 2: Yeah, on furling a black banner with white writing like
- 28:16Speaker 2: my image media. I mean, you're just having a Toyota
- 28:22Speaker 2: high looks at the bottom of the this, you know
- 28:24Speaker 2: what I mean, That's all I'm saying, and called the
- 28:27Speaker 2: prayer have been played over every they would have been vaporized.
- 28:31Speaker 2: They wouldn't even have to hit the ground. They would
- 28:33Speaker 2: be fucking vaporized.
- 28:35Speaker 3: The snipers that are always on the rooftops of New
- 28:38Speaker 3: York buildings. As a matter of course. Yeah, now, time
- 28:44Speaker 3: I got a crackh on one thing, don't I don't
- 28:46Speaker 3: like to correct anybody, but I got to crack on
- 28:48Speaker 3: one thing. They are not a married couple, but they
- 28:51Speaker 3: will soon be because they got engaged, full, full throated
- 28:56Speaker 3: kneel down ring on the finger job while on the
- 28:59Speaker 3: antenna up the way. You're gonna tell me that's not
- 29:02Speaker 3: the case.
- 29:02Speaker 2: It's not. I don't think it is the case. And
- 29:04Speaker 2: that's why I was playing you down the down, the down,
- 29:06Speaker 2: the down the avenue there, because did I not see
- 29:10Speaker 2: her with a ring on her finger? You did know?
- 29:12Speaker 2: They pulled up, they did the whole kneel down fucking thing.
- 29:15Speaker 2: You know they would be mine? Ok?
- 29:17Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I.
- 29:18Speaker 2: Did the whole thing. But some news station had cornered
- 29:22Speaker 2: his out Ado who built libbins, and he went, yeah,
- 29:29Speaker 2: let's say be married years.
- 29:31Speaker 3: This is just this is just fucking sneaky, fucking Russian bass.
- 29:35Speaker 2: This is just an ol stunt. They got they got
- 29:38Speaker 2: married in see Petersburg years ago. This is just an
- 29:41Speaker 2: ould stunt to give him a chance. Cause here's the thing,
- 29:44Speaker 2: ger if anybody goes and watch the documentary on Netflix,
- 29:47Speaker 2: you'll find out they've been climbing the world's tallest buildings
- 29:51Speaker 2: for fucking years and they hadn't nailed the Empire State.
- 29:54Speaker 2: And here's the thing as a couple of Russians, Jeno,
- 29:58Speaker 2: I'm just saying right now, it's red hot. It might
- 30:03Speaker 2: have sat too well. If the application went in to
- 30:07Speaker 2: climb the Empire State, they figured they probably would have
- 30:10Speaker 2: been shut down. And they come out the back end
- 30:12Speaker 2: of it, you're saying it was just pure love. It
- 30:16Speaker 2: was for love. We love you very very much. And
- 30:21Speaker 2: the judge turned around with you fucking coupled the scullywags.
- 30:24Speaker 2: I tell you one thing now, I tell you one
- 30:26Speaker 2: thing though, only that.
- 30:27Speaker 3: Was amazing that they were just like, yeah, mad.
- 30:31Speaker 2: About the two after that, now that your two gas fuckers,
- 30:35Speaker 2: look at you broke the lock, you know, breaking an entry.
- 30:38Speaker 2: It was burglary, and you do a.
- 30:40Speaker 5: Few pounds and you after pulling off one of the
- 30:42Speaker 5: most disgraceful safety fucking violations, in New York City in
- 30:46Speaker 5: the last couple of years, and you did accost the
- 30:50Speaker 5: city probably a few million in in in helicopters, in disruption,
- 30:57Speaker 5: having to shut down streets never around the place.
- 31:00Speaker 2: Yeah, which you know what we'll do. We we would
- 31:03Speaker 2: put you on supervised release there for a couple of weeks, LEDs.
- 31:07Speaker 2: And I'll tell you something, the fucking very best to
- 31:10Speaker 2: look at you and hey, I have a hat if
- 31:12Speaker 2: you're looking to send out the invite. I'm just saying,
- 31:16Speaker 2: you know, and I could.
- 31:17Speaker 3: It's amazing because the only parallel I have to it
- 31:19Speaker 3: is like you know, when you see these these lads
- 31:22Speaker 3: for Fathers for Justice climb up onto the fountain and
- 31:26Speaker 3: Trafalgar Square, I'm in a half an air their taser
- 31:29Speaker 3: debates and pulled off into a wagon with getting the
- 31:32Speaker 3: ship swamped out of themselves.
- 31:34Speaker 2: Yea.
- 31:34Speaker 3: And they get stressed up as because they want to
- 31:37Speaker 3: see the kids three days a week again, get up
- 31:42Speaker 3: and fucking do whatever they want. Yeah, we we we
- 31:45Speaker 3: We like a scofflaw on the Tom and Jerry Show.
- 31:47Speaker 3: We like this lad generally every now and then something
- 31:51Speaker 3: just smells a little bit.
- 31:53Speaker 2: Of it, does Yeah, that's where I'm at on that one.
- 31:56Speaker 2: I I'm glad, I'm glad you picked it, but we
- 32:02Speaker 2: couldn't and we could not talk about it because it
- 32:04Speaker 2: was such a big story or whatever. But the reading
- 32:07Speaker 2: of it at no point was anybody halfway suspicious, and
- 32:11Speaker 2: it just read plainly as this is what they got,
- 32:14Speaker 2: this is what they did, and this is why they
- 32:15Speaker 2: did it. There was no like deep journalism went these
- 32:20Speaker 2: two cons after costing the city millions, because to fart
- 32:28Speaker 2: on a street in New York, you'd be guaranteed they've
- 32:30Speaker 2: stopped traffic and everything around the building, like oh yeah,
- 32:33Speaker 2: and you know, like that's Fifth Avenue it's on, isn't it.
- 32:36Speaker 2: If I'm remember, yeah, it's near to all of historia,
- 32:39Speaker 2: Like it's like it is the street in New York
- 32:42Speaker 2: because main Street, do you know, like it is I'm
- 32:45Speaker 2: guessing Amaze is like this, it's main Street.
- 32:50Speaker 3: Shut that down. Even if it's like the even if
- 32:53Speaker 3: it's the building that has like the the Staples copy
- 32:57Speaker 3: place in it. You can't climb up on the roof
- 32:59Speaker 3: of that either, No.
- 33:00Speaker 2: And you can't because and not that not that they
- 33:04Speaker 2: get like overly give a rattling fuck about you that's
- 33:07Speaker 2: your own business. But it's what you It's not that
- 33:11Speaker 2: you're up there, it's when you're not up there, it's
- 33:15Speaker 2: and you've hit the deck. And who you fucking take
- 33:18Speaker 2: with you? Do you know you're gonna you know, it's
- 33:20Speaker 2: going to take a bus of orphans with you.
- 33:23Speaker 3: You're going to take card out?
- 33:26Speaker 2: Yeah, like, and there's two two little fucking absolute minds
- 33:30Speaker 2: falling out of the sky. So you guaranteed for a
- 33:34Speaker 2: few hours. But I shut the street down, divert traffic,
- 33:37Speaker 2: and that doesn't cost the tens of thousands. And when
- 33:40Speaker 2: you're in a city like New York, that costs millions
- 33:43Speaker 2: because they'll be business is putting in for loss of earnings.
- 33:47Speaker 2: Like if you have the Apple store and now all
- 33:50Speaker 2: of a sudden, nobody's allowed to pass the front door
- 33:52Speaker 2: of the Apple store for four.
- 33:53Speaker 3: Hours, somebody's got to pay for that time.
- 33:55Speaker 2: Somebody's paying for that, I can promise.
- 33:57Speaker 3: Yeah, well, listen, I'm going to tell you what we're
- 33:59Speaker 3: going to do. Tom We're gonna motor on with the
- 34:01Speaker 3: last segment of the show, which also involves a highly
- 34:04Speaker 3: expensive wedding ring adjacent event in New York City. This week,
- 34:12Speaker 3: it got us thinking, and it got us reminiscent with
- 34:14Speaker 3: the final segment of the show we call We Remember
- 34:17Speaker 3: When when I was a young lad twenty or thirty
- 34:20Speaker 3: or forty years ago. Tom. Of course. The other event
- 34:23Speaker 3: was Taylor Swift's wedding in Madison Square Garden, like not
- 34:28Speaker 3: near Madison Square Garden. They rented out the entire freaking
- 34:32Speaker 3: building and filled it with a thousand guests, which I
- 34:36Speaker 3: gotta tell you, I don't know them all by name,
- 34:39Speaker 3: but of the thousand of them, I'd say about nine hundreds.
- 34:43Speaker 3: And they completely shut down the whole town in New
- 34:46Speaker 3: York just for their own little weddings and muzzletob may
- 34:49Speaker 3: a thousand blossoms bloom. I'm happy for the blushing bride
- 34:53Speaker 3: and groom. Wonderful she is she.
- 34:55Speaker 2: To become Taylor Kelson. Now is it Kelso or Kelsey
- 34:58Speaker 2: Kelsey football? He is Travis Kelcey Kelsey Kelcey. Correct us
- 35:04Speaker 2: in the comments. He's doesn't seem he seems to have
- 35:08Speaker 2: taken one too many blows to the head, but he
- 35:10Speaker 2: definitely landed on his feet here or marry.
- 35:12Speaker 3: He did all right there? Yeah, He's famously elusive and
- 35:15Speaker 3: hard to pin down.
- 35:17Speaker 2: Taylor Swift. Well, if you're to listen to our songs,
- 35:19Speaker 2: you'd be suspicious every time you fucking turned on the
- 35:21Speaker 2: radio if you're the husband, like a here.
- 35:24Speaker 3: What that's not about me? Is about me?
- 35:27Speaker 2: How many fellows has she been with before me? Christ Above?
- 35:31Speaker 2: Every song is a sad story.
- 35:32Speaker 3: Got to get a ring on this quick here. So
- 35:35Speaker 3: they got married, well done. We didn't find a home
- 35:38Speaker 3: for them, Tom, in any of our segments, this lad,
- 35:40Speaker 3: those lads, the other lads, but the weddins did pique
- 35:44Speaker 3: our interest for the We remember whens because, like we
- 35:47Speaker 3: say in the Tom and Jerry Show, we ain't fucking
- 35:49Speaker 3: spring chickens.
- 35:50Speaker 2: Baby.
- 35:50Speaker 3: We've been around for a combined eighty to ninety years
- 35:54Speaker 3: on this rock, and in our time there, we've seen
- 35:57Speaker 3: a lot of things change. And one of the things
- 35:58Speaker 3: that has changed down through the years to Tom is weddings,
- 36:04Speaker 3: from the first wedding I was at in the eighties
- 36:06Speaker 3: all the way up to today, including not for nothing,
- 36:10Speaker 3: my own Tom. I've been at a couple of weddings
- 36:13Speaker 3: and I've got a few thoughts. But you tell me
- 36:15Speaker 3: you haven't been at that many.
- 36:16Speaker 2: I haven't. I actually have. I'm the weird one, like
- 36:19Speaker 2: the amount of times like I'll go every time, every
- 36:21Speaker 2: time I go into my barbering care Keelan, he's off
- 36:25Speaker 2: to adding another ages another. He's probably early mid mid
- 36:30Speaker 2: to early thirties, maybe to like thirty four. I'm guessing right, Well,
- 36:34Speaker 2: it's around that. Yeah, that's that, isn't it.
- 36:37Speaker 3: I'm going to tell you the evolution of weddings now
- 36:39Speaker 3: as as a as a as a as an Irish person,
- 36:43Speaker 3: I want to say, like when you're young, when you're
- 36:46Speaker 3: like under ten, you're probably not going to be invited
- 36:49Speaker 3: to that many of them because you know, no kids allowed,
- 36:53Speaker 3: you're too small for a babysitter or whatever it is,
- 36:55Speaker 3: and all your relatives are gone to it. So you're
- 36:57Speaker 3: either left at home with some baby you know, some
- 37:00Speaker 3: distant cousin or some such, or you just knock gone
- 37:02Speaker 3: to it. And usually that this wedding will be the
- 37:05Speaker 3: last of your answer uncles to get married, whatever it
- 37:08Speaker 3: might be. You get into your teenage years, maybe some
- 37:10Speaker 3: of your older cousins will start getting married, or some
- 37:13Speaker 3: neighbors or some such, and you get to a couple
- 37:14Speaker 3: of weddings here and there. At these weddings, tom if
- 37:17Speaker 3: I am any example of it. One of your cousins
- 37:22Speaker 3: will give you a pint too many, and you won't
- 37:23Speaker 3: refuse any of them, and you'll get fucking way too
- 37:26Speaker 3: drunk and way too young of an age, and end
- 37:28Speaker 3: up recounting the story on a podcast in a segment
- 37:31Speaker 3: called My drunk is Dever. Into your twenties and your
- 37:35Speaker 3: thirties is where your barber is right now, It's where
- 37:38Speaker 3: all your pals from school, and indeed all your missusses
- 37:41Speaker 3: pals all start to marry off.
- 37:42Speaker 2: And you're going to go through a.
- 37:44Speaker 3: Fairly cash intensive six to eight years where you have
- 37:50Speaker 3: multiple fucking weddings left and right and center. And then
- 37:54Speaker 3: you age up into where we are now, Tom in
- 37:57Speaker 3: our forties, in our forty forty five, your own wedding
- 38:01Speaker 3: has come and gone, and now it's slowed down. Maybe
- 38:05Speaker 3: there's a younger cousin or two late in life baby
- 38:08Speaker 3: Tom that's grown up and now they are getting married.
- 38:10Speaker 3: Maybe there's a neighbor, maybe there's a coworker, something like that.
- 38:14Speaker 3: But the weddings will slow to a hault for us,
- 38:16Speaker 3: and then it'll kick off again with our own kids
- 38:19Speaker 3: somebody down the line.
- 38:20Speaker 2: Yeah, you really I can see nephews and nieces coming
- 38:23Speaker 2: all right, starting to come through for me. When it
- 38:26Speaker 2: was in any time I got I was at a wedding,
- 38:28Speaker 2: it was never a cousin lash and it would seemed
- 38:30Speaker 2: to be some uncle home from England or America or something. Yes,
- 38:35Speaker 2: bosting auto credit card, blowing the fucking doors off the thing,
- 38:39Speaker 2: and you're going, well, this this sell is buying happy
- 38:42Speaker 2: fucking days like do you know? And you're going it
- 38:45Speaker 2: always ended up being steaming. I always every wedding, I well,
- 38:51Speaker 2: can I tell you about one wedding jar I couldn't
- 38:53Speaker 2: get drunk at? I couldn't one, Yeah, which one was?
- 38:58Speaker 2: It's the one one I ever went in England. Went
- 39:02Speaker 2: to a wedding in England one time there and with
- 39:05Speaker 2: herself and our family, a friend of theirs, beautiful manor house,
- 39:11Speaker 2: tiniest bar I've ever seen, honestly got the booty your
- 39:14Speaker 2: car would fucking sort you out better, And we kind
- 39:18Speaker 2: of knew this situation might happen, so we loaded the
- 39:21Speaker 2: boot with extra mahersal pines kens and couldn't. It was
- 39:28Speaker 2: that dry of an affair. It was that boring and
- 39:32Speaker 2: dreary of an affair there and this is not I'm
- 39:34Speaker 2: not saying it's indicative of all English weddings, but English
- 39:36Speaker 2: people have that came to my wedding couldn't wait because,
- 39:40Speaker 2: as they said themselves, they'd heard the myth and legend
- 39:44Speaker 2: of an Irish wedding. I'm like, oh, now I get it,
- 39:46Speaker 2: because your weddings are shy, mostly because they know it's
- 39:51Speaker 2: still too there. And I figured it out. If you
- 39:53Speaker 2: know that there's a sixty to seventy percent chance it
- 39:55Speaker 2: is going to be a divorce ince ou five years,
- 39:58Speaker 2: why would.
- 39:58Speaker 3: You put the effort in wedding. I couldn't get drunk
- 40:01Speaker 3: at tom Go on my own because I was like,
- 40:06Speaker 3: it's a busy day getting married. And I remember at
- 40:09Speaker 3: one stage, I've been walking around with a bottle of
- 40:12Speaker 3: Heineken in my hand for like an hour and a
- 40:14Speaker 3: half and I hadn't taken a sup out of it
- 40:16Speaker 3: to be over shaking a hand, shaking hands with some cousin.
- 40:20Speaker 3: And now I have a couple cut this cake, and
- 40:22Speaker 3: then I know I have to have to go do
- 40:24Speaker 3: this and go do that, and you just seeing it
- 40:25Speaker 3: and and like you're you're, you're, you're the main event.
- 40:28Speaker 3: You know what I mean. So uh, And I didn't
- 40:31Speaker 3: see it as a day that I should get shipped faced,
- 40:33Speaker 3: but I could not get I don't think I drove
- 40:35Speaker 3: through out that bottle more than twice.
- 40:37Speaker 2: If it's any conscelationship, I got absolutely fucking slaughtered the joe. Well,
- 40:40Speaker 2: thank you, Tom. I want to see the morning I
- 40:44Speaker 2: was at our entire table. We're fucking polluted by the
- 40:47Speaker 2: fucking before the desserts came out, it was mighty crack
- 40:51Speaker 2: Well listen.
- 40:52Speaker 3: So we've been to a bunch of weddings down through
- 40:54Speaker 3: through the years, and and and and I'm at a
- 40:56Speaker 3: stage now, Tom that I have like a wedding every
- 40:58Speaker 3: two years or there. Right, It doesn't annoy me, but
- 41:01Speaker 3: I do remember, fuck me, I'll tell you there was
- 41:03Speaker 3: a stretch there and me Torty's were I think it
- 41:05Speaker 3: was at like six weddings in a year. And I
- 41:07Speaker 3: tell that story to people and they're like six weddings
- 41:10Speaker 3: a year. Ha, I've been the thirteen weddings last year. Yeah,
- 41:14Speaker 3: you say you didn't have that, But what you also
- 41:17Speaker 3: admitted to me, Tom, it wasn't that you weren't asked
- 41:20Speaker 3: to a bunch of weddings. You just didn't fucking go.
- 41:23Speaker 2: Yeah, Like I just I put myself in their shoes
- 41:28Speaker 2: and I'm going, do you want to buy me dinner?
- 41:31Speaker 2: Because I think that's okay if you don't want me
- 41:33Speaker 2: to buy Like, I didn't feel bad when you know,
- 41:35Speaker 2: when you find out that it's oh it's a three
- 41:37Speaker 2: hundred see you know three hundred in I'm like, you
- 41:40Speaker 2: ain't got a fucking no there. Now, let's and I
- 41:42Speaker 2: would send back and go and I put myself in
- 41:45Speaker 2: their boots and I go. They don't fucking care. And
- 41:50Speaker 2: a lot of my old like here's the mad thing.
- 41:52Speaker 2: A lot of my like old friends they've never gotten married.
- 41:55Speaker 2: Er yeah, a lot of these I know a raked
- 41:58Speaker 2: dudes who are still still rocking it. I still you know,
- 42:03Speaker 2: most of them moved to Europe or moved to Yeah,
- 42:06Speaker 2: most of them moved to Europe. My too, brother of laws.
- 42:08Speaker 2: Ain't never get married, you know what I mean, because
- 42:10Speaker 2: like they've been they've been at the cliffage a couple
- 42:12Speaker 2: of times. But no, I ain't never getting married. And
- 42:15Speaker 2: it's I take my cap off. I'm like, well, if
- 42:17Speaker 2: it isn't for you, what's the point in wasting your money, like,
- 42:20Speaker 2: but that's kind of but I just I was always gigging.
- 42:22Speaker 2: It wasn't just that I was stopping at home. I
- 42:25Speaker 2: was always gigging.
- 42:26Speaker 3: You were just like you weren't just pure ignorant. You
- 42:28Speaker 3: were gone.
- 42:28Speaker 2: I was. It just felt so many ways that I
- 42:31Speaker 2: was just gone. And a lot of Antash's friends, they've
- 42:36Speaker 2: like a few of them, there are more than one
- 42:38Speaker 2: or two that maybe I should get these situations hooked up,
- 42:40Speaker 2: but a lot of them haven't gotten married, or they've
- 42:43Speaker 2: gotten married abroad somewhere. A lot of her friends more
- 42:47Speaker 2: than not got married in Americas, and you know, and
- 42:50Speaker 2: they you know, and we would meet them for what
- 42:52Speaker 2: would be the Irish Day too, So I'm not really
- 42:55Speaker 2: classing that as a win. It was just a pass up,
- 42:57Speaker 2: like in other kind of way. A few of them
- 42:59Speaker 2: are right, That's what I wanted to talk to you about. Tom.
- 43:02Speaker 3: Now, people say we remember when, so we remember, we've
- 43:04Speaker 3: been to a bunch of weddings, But we want to say,
- 43:06Speaker 3: as we do on the Tom and Jerry Show, how
- 43:08Speaker 3: things have changed in our forty odd years on this rock,
- 43:12Speaker 3: and weddings are no exception. The core basics of a wedding.
- 43:17Speaker 3: And for the purposes of this bit, folks were talking
- 43:19Speaker 3: about a traditional Irish Catholic wedding, church, wedding, hotel reception. Yeah, okay,
- 43:29Speaker 3: various other flavors of weddings are available to you as
- 43:32Speaker 3: civil ceremonies, you know, humanist ceremonies. Tom, you could marry.
- 43:38Speaker 2: Me if you wanted, I married somebody.
- 43:40Speaker 3: I mean, you could be the celebrant that matters. I mean, indeed,
- 43:43Speaker 3: these days I can marry you if I want.
- 43:45Speaker 2: And do you know what, I wouldn't been over there night.
- 43:48Speaker 2: I ain't mad at that that that notion be one
- 43:50Speaker 2: of the best best wedding marriages you'd ever see. I married,
- 43:54Speaker 2: I married a couple of last year. Forgot, Yeah, look
- 43:57Speaker 2: at that, you could you did? I did? I did.
- 44:00Speaker 2: I married a couple last year. Super cool.
- 44:02Speaker 3: So for the purpose of this, but we're going to
- 44:03Speaker 3: go your traditional down the line Grant wedding because that's
- 44:07Speaker 3: the one that I've been to the most of I
- 44:11Speaker 3: remember when in the eighties, when I was a wee fella,
- 44:14Speaker 3: the very earliest weddings I went to cousins and whatnot.
- 44:17Speaker 2: Those a tradition sliding on your knees.
- 44:20Speaker 3: Wow, I'm sorry, I'm a wrong time. But if you're
- 44:25Speaker 3: a young lad at a wedding or twenty fourth or
- 44:27Speaker 3: ending in a hole that has a parqua floor cracked
- 44:30Speaker 3: and with a parquet floor, is there any better crack
- 44:34Speaker 3: then running like a mad bastard sliding on your knees
- 44:38Speaker 3: up the floor.
- 44:39Speaker 2: Yeah, because you're never normally in trousers like that that
- 44:42Speaker 2: have that lovely shiny polyester vibe going on, and your
- 44:46Speaker 2: needs at five, six, seven, eight years of age are
- 44:50Speaker 2: like the fucking t one thousand. You just grown your knee.
- 44:54Speaker 2: By the time the night is over, I divided it now,
- 44:57Speaker 2: good night and thanks as.
- 44:58Speaker 3: A gas in that age, in that time in Ireland
- 45:01Speaker 3: in the eighties, when was I ever on a polished
- 45:04Speaker 3: maple floor.
- 45:05Speaker 4: Never, It's not a possibility. Like it's never a possibility,
- 45:09Speaker 4: tell you so. Threat weddings even to this day in
- 45:13Speaker 4: the traditional as we call it Irish wedding, go to
- 45:16Speaker 4: the church, have the wedding out into the car, go
- 45:19Speaker 4: to the hotel. You will have a feed forst of pints,
- 45:23Speaker 4: then be for salmon. The couple will cut the cake,
- 45:29Speaker 4: first dance and away out the gap. But there was
- 45:32Speaker 4: a tradition that seems to have fallen along the wayside,
- 45:36Speaker 4: and that was the going away ceremony. I remember that
- 45:39Speaker 4: in the earlier weddings that I went to in the
- 45:42Speaker 4: eighties and nineties.
- 45:43Speaker 2: It's it's almost the one that you think of in
- 45:45Speaker 2: America with the ken's hanging back of the car, just
- 45:47Speaker 2: married Tom. It's not like that. Is that, it's exactly that.
- 45:51Speaker 2: That's that's a whole thing.
- 45:52Speaker 3: That's that's not a thing anymore. The whole trope of
- 45:56Speaker 3: the husband and wife get into a car and shaven
- 45:59Speaker 3: for all over, and there's cans tied to the back
- 46:02Speaker 3: bumper and they drive off with just married in the
- 46:05Speaker 3: back window. I was there for that. That was when
- 46:09Speaker 3: the bride and groom, at around about eleven o'clock in
- 46:12Speaker 3: the evening would go upstairs get changed from their wedding
- 46:16Speaker 3: gear into what was called they're going away out for it,
- 46:19Speaker 3: which was much more, much less formal. It wasn't a
- 46:23Speaker 3: big dress for the missus and it wasn't a suit
- 46:25Speaker 3: for him. It was more cities, but it was still
- 46:27Speaker 3: like a nice chassie set up. Yeah. Yeah, they would
- 46:30Speaker 3: get hugs and kisses from everybody. This is eleven o'clock
- 46:33Speaker 3: at night. They would get hugs and kisses from everybody
- 46:36Speaker 3: and high fives, and they would get in a car and.
- 46:38Speaker 2: They would fuck off, and that was the last you
- 46:40Speaker 2: seen them.
- 46:40Speaker 3: They were gone. They were going literally on their honeymoon
- 46:43Speaker 3: now to drive from Monaghan or Tullamore or wherever the
- 46:47Speaker 3: fuck it was to the airport to go away in
- 46:51Speaker 3: a car was just married on the back of it.
- 46:54Speaker 3: I were gone.
- 46:55Speaker 2: I remember, I'd want to add that, did that all right? Now?
- 46:58Speaker 2: It would have been I served at that mess. No, sorry,
- 47:00Speaker 2: there were neighbors. There were neighbors here, and I remember
- 47:04Speaker 2: they did that. They were gone that evening and I
- 47:07Speaker 2: just thought I'd say the like that, just seeing the
- 47:08Speaker 2: American movies, and they just drive off with the just
- 47:10Speaker 2: marriage written on the back, and of course all the
- 47:12Speaker 2: adults get on the on the rip, you know, there's
- 47:15Speaker 2: like cheer them on fair place we're gonna. I'm not
- 47:18Speaker 2: even putting on my jacket to say, look to you
- 47:20Speaker 2: if that's if you don't mind, and just back on it.
- 47:22Speaker 2: And then in in that time, neither you nor I
- 47:26Speaker 2: did that. When we got married, we we you hang
- 47:28Speaker 2: around for the party basically.
- 47:30Speaker 3: Yeah, and you you know, it wasn't that you left
- 47:33Speaker 3: the wedding that night to go on honeymoon. You left
- 47:37Speaker 3: the wedding, you probably went back to work for a
- 47:39Speaker 3: week and then you went on honeymoon at a little
- 47:42Speaker 3: later time, because it was just, yeah, how the fuck
- 47:45Speaker 3: do you line all that up in one go? You
- 47:47Speaker 3: have only so much leave in a year, you know
- 47:48Speaker 3: what I mean?
- 47:49Speaker 2: Well, the thing, yeah, the th and the thing is
- 47:51Speaker 2: a lot of time you're it might be a flight
- 47:53Speaker 2: to fucking Morocco or something you know, or or or
- 47:56Speaker 2: out to the You might be going fucking I don't know,
- 47:59Speaker 2: so somewhere to the Hawaii or something which you ain't
- 48:04Speaker 2: going to get on the Sunday morning, you know, after like.
- 48:07Speaker 3: Exactly as you think about it, there you're leaving karten
- 48:10Speaker 3: across at eleven o'clock in the evening.
- 48:12Speaker 2: Where you going?
- 48:15Speaker 3: What flight was leaving any rate?
- 48:17Speaker 2: So that's a tradition.
- 48:18Speaker 3: That's not a thing anymore. The rest of it is
- 48:21Speaker 3: fairly as I remember it, except we used to throw
- 48:24Speaker 3: confetti outside.
- 48:26Speaker 2: Where the speech is always so fucking long.
- 48:29Speaker 3: Well, you know, here's here's here's the thing. Okay, they
- 48:33Speaker 3: made everybody stop throwing confetti outside the church because birds
- 48:37Speaker 3: were eating the making them and then.
- 48:39Speaker 2: They wouldn't let them eat risier because the parently pigeons
- 48:41Speaker 2: it will swell up inside in their stomach.
- 48:43Speaker 3: And you're like, okay, what can we do and it's
- 48:45Speaker 3: like it was like they turn around and go like,
- 48:48Speaker 3: well you can get up and talk for three quarters
- 48:50Speaker 3: of an hour. Yeah at the reception, nobody stopping. You're
- 48:53Speaker 3: doing that, And everyone was like deadly, Yeah, go ahead.
- 48:57Speaker 3: I remember weddings I used to be at.
- 49:01Speaker 2: Tom.
- 49:01Speaker 3: It was the best man got up and the groom's
- 49:04Speaker 3: a big the best man and the bride's father two speeches.
- 49:09Speaker 2: That was it done.
- 49:10Speaker 3: You're good with it? Is it?
- 49:12Speaker 2: And you know.
- 49:15Speaker 3: That is not the case these days, And anybody that
- 49:19Speaker 3: has something to say, they're more than welcome to get
- 49:22Speaker 3: up and say it. Once you get past the two
- 49:26Speaker 3: fathers and the bride in the room, you know, I
- 49:29Speaker 3: think we're I think we're getting I can hear it, Tom.
- 49:32Speaker 2: I can promise you jar There isn't one person in
- 49:35Speaker 2: that entire entire room wants to listen to anything anybody
- 49:40Speaker 2: else to say.
- 49:41Speaker 3: Everyone don't necessarily need a sixth.
- 49:45Speaker 2: We wrapped, We had the opportunity to wrap hours up
- 49:48Speaker 2: at the drinks reception from the steps, Yes, and I
- 49:52Speaker 2: I curtailed my father because I's not long winded, but
- 49:55Speaker 2: I knew he could go on a bit, so I
- 49:57Speaker 2: gave him three minutes. I gave myself two minutes. I
- 50:02Speaker 2: gave herself father three minutes, and I gave the priest
- 50:04Speaker 2: one minute. I was all done in under ten minutes
- 50:08Speaker 2: back on the pines, and everybody was like, thank folk.
- 50:12Speaker 2: I was like, there's more speeches that are no, No,
- 50:15Speaker 2: everything's been said. We've been at a wedding. We've been
- 50:19Speaker 2: at a wedding one time and we got sat kind
- 50:22Speaker 2: of outside the reception hall because it.
- 50:28Speaker 1: Horror.
- 50:28Speaker 2: Horror. Family were so rude and his family were fucking.
- 50:31Speaker 2: I've never met ruder people in my whole life. I
- 50:34Speaker 2: was loving it because I love meeting general assholes in
- 50:37Speaker 2: the wild. To the point that that we're going on
- 50:40Speaker 2: now into our and twenty minute mark, right hour and
- 50:43Speaker 2: twenty minute marks rough, and I was I've been shaking
- 50:47Speaker 2: my glass at a chap. I don't know. He kept
- 50:49Speaker 2: ignoring me anyway, So I wondered, went for a wander
- 50:51Speaker 2: through this manor house and found a small little bar
- 50:54Speaker 2: where the actual owner of the building was there. Lovely
- 50:56Speaker 2: MANU went, would you like to taste the new sider
- 50:58Speaker 2: that I've just made. I'm not selling it, I went,
- 51:01Speaker 2: How strong is? He went? I don't know? So I
- 51:03Speaker 2: came back to the table half an hour later, almost
- 51:06Speaker 2: ready to piss my own hants, but to prove my
- 51:10Speaker 2: point that I'd done the right thing and missing out
- 51:12Speaker 2: on the father of the bride, or that we were
- 51:15Speaker 2: both washing our hands in the bathroom about an hour
- 51:17Speaker 2: later and there was napkins, you know, fancy napkins that yeah,
- 51:21Speaker 2: rather than a hand drier. And he didn't look at me.
- 51:24Speaker 2: He just looked up, looked at himself in the mirror
- 51:26Speaker 2: and were boat washing her hands. Look in the mirror.
- 51:28Speaker 2: He shook off his hand and then did this to
- 51:33Speaker 2: me without looking at me. He clicked his fingers at
- 51:37Speaker 2: me and then beckoned with his like index and middle finger,
- 51:41Speaker 2: passed me on like I worked there, shit, and I'm like,
- 51:46Speaker 2: best to look brother, I'm off for more. Enjoy the
- 51:51Speaker 2: rest of the special days. Oh my god. But it
- 51:55Speaker 2: wasn't based on purely that, but I was kind of like, okay,
- 51:58Speaker 2: maybe maybe family members of other things but I genuinely
- 52:01Speaker 2: think and I'm a stand up I know it's my time,
- 52:04Speaker 2: Like do you know what I mean? I pride myself
- 52:06Speaker 2: and known they're not what the what am I going
- 52:09Speaker 2: to get in the way of the chocolate fountain over
- 52:11Speaker 2: there and pints? No, I'm just gonna thank them all.
- 52:15Speaker 2: The old Man did a kind of his own parody
- 52:17Speaker 2: on the on the watch on the the All Ireland
- 52:20Speaker 2: acceptance speech.
- 52:22Speaker 3: Yeah, and that was it, and that was remember that
- 52:25Speaker 3: was the thing in the speech is Tom and this
- 52:27Speaker 3: and this might still happen today, but I haven't seen
- 52:29Speaker 3: it in a long time. Was someone would get up
- 52:32Speaker 3: and rather than make a speech, it was their job
- 52:33Speaker 3: to read out wedding cards from people that wanted to
- 52:38Speaker 3: be there but couldn't. So and Anti Josie in Canada
- 52:43Speaker 3: sense of regards and Uncle Seamus in fucking Fatima senses regards.
- 52:49Speaker 3: And I think at once say someone just said, like
- 52:51Speaker 3: you know who cares?
- 52:54Speaker 2: Were good?
- 52:57Speaker 3: You know?
- 52:57Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know so that things like this just
- 53:01Speaker 2: kind of fell off.
- 53:02Speaker 3: I'll give you one time, as we rock and roll
- 53:03Speaker 3: through the last segment of the Tom and Jerry Show,
- 53:07Speaker 3: I remember when we remember when that's the name of
- 53:10Speaker 3: this segment. We remember when weddings were a one day
- 53:14Speaker 3: affair or my friend yeah, yeah, yeah. Now, I don't
- 53:17Speaker 3: know how I feel exactly about about the two day
- 53:19Speaker 3: wedding or the multi day wedding. I understand that there's
- 53:24Speaker 3: a lot of people have their civil ceremony and they
- 53:27Speaker 3: bring their nearest and dearest with them to that if
- 53:29Speaker 3: they do it all, and then they have a second
- 53:32Speaker 3: day elsewhere as the wedding wedding. Yeah, like the reception
- 53:38Speaker 3: doesn't take place on the same day as a wedding.
- 53:41Speaker 3: Lovely not what I grew up with, but seems like
- 53:43Speaker 3: a good bit of crack. But there are other weddings
- 53:45Speaker 3: that are just a traditional wedding wedding and then an
- 53:49Speaker 3: entirely separate day tacked onto it. And I'm not mad
- 53:53Speaker 3: at it, Tom, I'm not mad at it, particularly sometimes
- 53:56Speaker 3: particularly when we had when we had the kids and
- 53:59Speaker 3: there were and you weren't bringing kids to things, you
- 54:02Speaker 3: couldn't go to the wedding together. So I'd let herself
- 54:06Speaker 3: go to the wedding on the wedding day and then
- 54:08Speaker 3: I'd go to the day.
- 54:09Speaker 2: To Yeah, no, I get it. The session afterwards, I
- 54:12Speaker 2: totally get.
- 54:13Speaker 3: It, like and and and yeah, you know, I hate,
- 54:18Speaker 3: I hate to say it all worked out for me,
- 54:20Speaker 3: but herself got to go and hear the speeches and
- 54:23Speaker 3: the mass, and I got to go to the all
- 54:25Speaker 3: day session. Yeah, in an and it comes from a
- 54:28Speaker 3: pair of shorts. Maybe if it's in a pair of
- 54:31Speaker 3: genes where there was at the barbecue.
- 54:33Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, some rebelman playing over in the corner. Yeah.
- 54:38Speaker 3: So I'm not entirely mad at I'm mad at it,
- 54:40Speaker 3: but I gotta tell you it's one of the other.
- 54:42Speaker 2: It's one of the other. I'm not going to two days, buddy,
- 54:45Speaker 2: But that's it.
- 54:46Speaker 3: One day of your two day wedding.
- 54:47Speaker 2: You have three you've kind of three setups there. You
- 54:50Speaker 2: have the the main church, then you the the afters
- 54:56Speaker 2: and sometimes you know, you only go to the afters
- 54:59Speaker 2: there were, yeah, and then now there's the day too,
- 55:01Speaker 2: and you're like, bring so many.
- 55:02Speaker 3: To the church, to the church, and so many to
- 55:03Speaker 3: the after and so many to the to the to
- 55:06Speaker 3: the late at night.
- 55:07Speaker 2: Bitch.
- 55:07Speaker 3: I remember that used to be another thing as well.
- 55:09Speaker 3: It was like, okay, so many to the church, add
- 55:13Speaker 3: another fifty when we get to the reception, and after
- 55:15Speaker 3: that everybody I ever drove past the road as well
- 55:18Speaker 3: to come.
- 55:18Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. Yeah.
- 55:21Speaker 3: The the I've been a weddings where it was like
- 55:24Speaker 3: every single human being I've ever clappedized on is invited
- 55:27Speaker 3: to the dinner of it.
- 55:28Speaker 2: And I'm like, God, damn Jesus. Yeah, yeah, I've been
- 55:31Speaker 2: to a few and You're like, there was five hundred
- 55:33Speaker 2: people at this. What's you know, like you're hoping to
- 55:38Speaker 2: build a house out of this?
- 55:39Speaker 3: What the fuck it's I don't I don't think I
- 55:41Speaker 3: could name five hundred people if I added wrestlers.
- 55:44Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 55:49Speaker 3: And the last thing, last thing I'm going to say
- 55:51Speaker 3: on the subject, Tom and you you glanced on it,
- 55:53Speaker 3: then there earlier we remember when weddings took place in
- 55:59Speaker 3: the parish that you were, you were living in this
- 56:03Speaker 3: crack of deciding that you were going to have your
- 56:05Speaker 3: wedding in uh.
- 56:09Speaker 2: A destination location.
- 56:11Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, and then everybody would go with you to
- 56:14Speaker 3: it is as alien to me as four glowing black
- 56:20Speaker 3: eggs brought up from the Japanese.
- 56:22Speaker 2: See the sister did a to a two hander. They
- 56:25Speaker 2: got married in Florence. Do you know what, though they
- 56:30Speaker 2: have a lot of European based friends. But it worked
- 56:32Speaker 2: out well as a holiday because you could go worse
- 56:37Speaker 2: places for a week than Florence.
- 56:39Speaker 3: Well this is and I'd love to go for Florence
- 56:41Speaker 3: on my own time. Yeah, if you invite me to
- 56:45Speaker 3: a wedding and it's and I have to get a
- 56:48Speaker 3: flight to go to it, let me tell you mine
- 56:51Speaker 3: is one of the cards they'll be reading out at
- 56:53Speaker 3: the ceremony, regards from Jerry McBride who couldn't make it.
- 56:58Speaker 2: Yeah, there is an element of what the fuck and
- 57:02Speaker 2: worse again, we got one and it was guessed because
- 57:05Speaker 2: we actually got one at the same time here in Ireland,
- 57:08Speaker 2: and it was to go I won't say where, but
- 57:12Speaker 2: I'm sure as fuck would never go there on the holiday.
- 57:15Speaker 2: Do you get me like like there was there was?
- 57:18Speaker 2: It was been mooded there recently about going to Florida
- 57:21Speaker 2: for our wedding. I'm like Jesus Christ miss missed mortgage
- 57:25Speaker 2: payment at that pint.
- 57:26Speaker 3: I actually as as you mentioned, as you mentioned, I've
- 57:29Speaker 3: been to one destination wedding, but this was within the
- 57:31Speaker 3: closest niche of the family circle. Okay, Yeah, if it's
- 57:37Speaker 3: some lad that I used to work with, is getting
- 57:40Speaker 3: married in the south of France. He's getting married there.
- 57:44Speaker 3: I'm not taking a day off work for that, but
- 57:45Speaker 3: I'm not using up a day annually leaving that. I'm sorry.
- 57:47Speaker 2: I don't think, yeah, I don't. I don't think anybody's
- 57:49Speaker 2: going to get now we we well, it wasn't a
- 57:52Speaker 2: destination we got married to kind of to soften the
- 57:55Speaker 2: cough of everybody. We got married on just we got
- 57:59Speaker 2: married on the Cork Road. Basically we got married just
- 58:02Speaker 2: off them eight So that was equidition.
- 58:04Speaker 3: That was fair to everybody, you know, it was.
- 58:06Speaker 2: It was for the Dublin people and for the Tipperary people,
- 58:09Speaker 2: and it was it worked out easy for everybody to
- 58:11Speaker 2: get to. But even still the twos like is this
- 58:13Speaker 2: all right to get back because we're neither one of
- 58:16Speaker 2: from here, like you know, But then you know, it
- 58:19Speaker 2: wasn't exactly the most you know, sanctimonious affair when you're
- 58:24Speaker 2: getting When I got a spin to the church in
- 58:27Speaker 2: the A team, then laying the eighteen music as a
- 58:30Speaker 2: trove up to the fucking georch, I'm pretty sure the
- 58:32Speaker 2: priest is like, what the fuck is this.
- 58:35Speaker 3: The and and there we go, ladies and gentlemen. Weddings
- 58:38Speaker 3: have changed down through the years and many many different ways,
- 58:42Speaker 3: means and otherwise.
- 58:43Speaker 2: Here's one. Well, here's one for me that I did
- 58:47Speaker 2: that I benefited from. In the old days as an
- 58:50Speaker 2: auto boy, I used to get twenty crisp pounds into
- 58:53Speaker 2: my hand. Nice for serving that a wedding. Now I
- 58:57Speaker 2: put on a show. I won't lie.
- 58:59Speaker 3: I look to you, bang that gun, baby.
- 59:01Speaker 2: The best vestments would be out. It was game like,
- 59:03Speaker 2: it was game time. We don't we'd have a pep
- 59:05Speaker 2: talk beforehand, like and this wasn't that's not for the
- 59:08Speaker 2: middle here, lads, this wasn't. This wasn't you know, a
- 59:11Speaker 2: midweek fixture like this was Super Saturday like you know,
- 59:15Speaker 2: I mean, this is what you're trained for. This is
- 59:17Speaker 2: where we bring it. You know, this is game six
- 59:19Speaker 2: like we're it's it's I mean, you can bow out
- 59:22Speaker 2: now if you're not ready for the big time, loise,
- 59:23Speaker 2: but it's time to fucking eat nerves and shit results.
- 59:26Speaker 2: Get out there, and a crisp twenty pound note we
- 59:29Speaker 2: put into my hand. I kept not getting booked, kept
- 59:32Speaker 2: on getting booked. It was like, this kid is fucking magic,
- 59:35Speaker 2: looks creating the photos wearing fucking snow white vestments, knows
- 59:39Speaker 2: where to stand, knows where to stand, knows who not
- 59:42Speaker 2: to stand in front of. You know, just just saying,
- 59:47Speaker 2: And you never see an autoboile or not a girl anymore,
- 59:49Speaker 2: you know what I mean? You just don't see him anymore.
- 59:51Speaker 2: And I think to be you just don't. Nobody's giving
- 59:53Speaker 2: it a go anymore.
- 59:55Speaker 3: And I wonder what would have happened in the nineties
- 59:57Speaker 3: they kind of got paid all that time. I don't know.
