- 1:51Speaker 3: for the Christmas special board. Do you remember being in
- 1:53Speaker 3: any pageants and shit like that back in your day?
- 1:56Speaker 4: It was fun age I was, I can remember. I
- 1:59Speaker 4: don't remember remember going on. I cannot only remember one really,
- 2:02Speaker 4: and it was I was playing the archangel Michael or
- 2:06Speaker 4: Gabriel or whoever, and the I was adamant. I was
- 2:14Speaker 4: not wearing full angel gear or even this is what
- 2:19Speaker 4: would you dress up like a Middle Eastern gentleman. I
- 2:21Speaker 4: was like absolutely not apparently send a phobic time. I
- 2:24Speaker 4: don't know what it was, but I had my heart
- 2:26Speaker 4: set on. I wore my my Takwanda outfit. And that's
- 2:30Speaker 4: what's the that's the Angel. Gabriel fucking delivered with angel
- 2:37Speaker 4: here deliver the news with a fucking spin and heel cake, Mary,
- 2:42Speaker 4: you're pregnant might bring you. Now, hold this piece of timber.
- 2:47Speaker 4: I'm gonna snap it in. And then because my my
- 2:51Speaker 4: wife was going to because our son is six and
- 2:54Speaker 4: he's with the singing with the little kids and they're
- 2:56Speaker 4: singing and he couldn't give half a fuck, like he's
- 3:00Speaker 4: just he's just about holding it together because he's like
- 3:03Speaker 4: this is so shit, you know what I mean, because
- 3:06Speaker 4: he's got no lines and nothing. But it's was like, well,
- 3:09Speaker 4: maybe maybe they doesn't follow us in genetics, no, because well,
- 3:13Speaker 4: you acted very young. They put me in a play,
- 3:15Speaker 4: and I think I told you about I need to
- 3:16Speaker 4: tell you more about this play. By the way, the
- 3:19Speaker 4: more the people tell me about him, like how did
- 3:21Speaker 4: they let kids be in this play? So the CrOx
- 3:24Speaker 4: of the play was I was I was a bit
- 3:27Speaker 4: of a playboy, saddled up to this woman who was loaded,
- 3:31Speaker 4: choked her to death right and the whole thing was
- 3:35Speaker 4: narrated by singing Samuel L. Jackson by Morgan Freeman in
- 3:40Speaker 4: the corner of the bad motherfuckers. I choked her to
- 3:46Speaker 4: death and then danced on her grave and then the
- 3:48Speaker 4: herr gravestone fell on me, and then I went down
- 3:51Speaker 4: and had to fight the devil. And it's it sold
- 3:54Speaker 4: out so well, they had to put it on two
- 3:56Speaker 4: more nights because that's.
- 3:58Speaker 3: A famous story though, Wasn't that is it?
- 4:01Speaker 4: I don't know that. I remember a top hat and
- 4:04Speaker 4: what I'm a stashingar and I was so delightful. I
- 4:07Speaker 4: was like, yeah, imagine giving that to our son. He
- 4:09Speaker 4: gets to kill somebody and then fight the devil is
- 4:12Speaker 4: so up his street, it's not even funny.
- 4:14Speaker 3: Give me two seconds time, I tell you what tell
- 4:16Speaker 3: tell the fine people of the Tom and Jerry Show.
- 4:18Speaker 3: What we're doing this week Now, that's not a regular
- 4:20Speaker 3: episode of Christmas Special. While I just google because.
- 4:23Speaker 4: That as Jerry digs into my brain because I knew
- 4:26Speaker 4: nothing about the backstup of this. So what we're going
- 4:28Speaker 4: to do this evening for the Christmas specially a bit
- 4:31Speaker 4: of a change in format. As Jerry said, we're going
- 4:33Speaker 4: to do what everybody has done as a child at
- 4:36Speaker 4: some point in your life, and if you have children
- 4:38Speaker 4: in your life, you've had to sit down and do
- 4:40Speaker 4: this over the last few weeks and then post it.
- 4:42Speaker 4: We're gonna go ahead and write our Christmas letters to
- 4:45Speaker 4: Santi and in that we're going to just pick a
- 4:48Speaker 4: couple of things for ourselves and we're going to do
- 4:51Speaker 4: a good bit of deed, a good deed and pick
- 4:54Speaker 4: something the again hypothetical and the hope that this work
- 4:58Speaker 4: works out. But this was what I would right now.
- 5:00Speaker 4: I want to list of about forty five things. A
- 5:02Speaker 4: router is on there too, jar, but I'm not putting
- 5:04Speaker 4: a router in there tonight. Okay.
- 5:06Speaker 3: No, But if you if you are our wife listening
- 5:09Speaker 3: to this before it drops the last toursday before Christmas,
- 5:12Speaker 3: and you yeah, you're like, oh my god, is he
- 5:15Speaker 3: going to say that he wants such and such and
- 5:18Speaker 3: I don't have that, and I have to run out
- 5:19Speaker 3: and get no, no, don't do that. Money can't buy
- 5:22Speaker 3: these hypotheticals. These yes, fair enough. And as as Tom
- 5:26Speaker 3: said there, we are also going to this was This
- 5:28Speaker 3: was how I did it. I was a kiss as
- 5:30Speaker 3: the Sandy back in the day. Oh yeah, when I
- 5:33Speaker 3: would write a letter, I'd be like, Santy, please can
- 5:35Speaker 3: I have this, this and this? And also can you
- 5:38Speaker 3: bring such and such to somebody else?
- 5:40Speaker 2: Oh no?
- 5:40Speaker 4: When I saw I guess you were.
- 5:42Speaker 3: Don't forget all the other boys and girls because you
- 5:44Speaker 3: you were you were going through the format and you
- 5:46Speaker 3: said we pick something for somebody else. I'm like, that's
- 5:48Speaker 3: that's a smart move. But wait, it was that cherryot
- 5:52Speaker 3: kiss ass as a child because and you know what
- 5:54Speaker 3: it was, Tom, I don't even know if it was
- 5:56Speaker 3: a kiss ass. Just like even back then, I knew
- 5:58Speaker 3: how to stay right with people.
- 6:00Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, you were political, move like you two
- 6:02Speaker 4: for two for me, one for the Yeah, I was not.
- 6:05Speaker 3: I was not confident that my good deeds of the
- 6:08Speaker 3: year would carry me over into the nice list. I
- 6:10Speaker 3: to make sure to have a selfless deed for somebody else.
- 6:13Speaker 4: What a load of shy you are a little.
- 6:17Speaker 3: Landed on December twenty fifth, I wasn't like make sure
- 6:21Speaker 3: everybody else got theirs. I was like, fuck, oh my god,
- 6:24Speaker 3: yeah yeah, I did a quick google on that play,
- 6:26Speaker 3: and I now I have to now I have to
- 6:29Speaker 3: throw this laptop in the river because it's completely infected
- 6:31Speaker 3: with virus. Isn't it like this? And no noise? But
- 6:34Speaker 3: I swear to god, I think that's like an Edgar
- 6:35Speaker 3: Allan Poe story or some such.
- 6:38Speaker 4: One of the one second, how would you spell squish?
- 6:41Speaker 4: Because one of the lines in it that I remember forever,
- 6:43Speaker 4: the girl was thinking, because squish squash he died. How
- 6:46Speaker 4: would you spell squish it? Q U I s h
- 6:49Speaker 4: squish squash, he qu a s h he died. Okay,

- 8:16Speaker 3: twenty five Tom and Jerry Christmas Special. Tom, I'm gonna
- 8:20Speaker 3: start with all Santy letters. You have to tell me
- 8:25Speaker 3: by telling me you're talent. Santy. You a good boy
- 8:29Speaker 3: this year, Tom.
- 8:30Speaker 4: I don't know if I was. I definitely, I like
- 8:33Speaker 4: what Constcus has been a good boy. I swore a
- 8:37Speaker 4: lot this year. I definitely swore a lot this year,
- 8:41Speaker 4: mostly because it drives to Dublin. Probably contensed all in
- 8:44Speaker 4: the last week where I was in Dublin three fucking
- 8:46Speaker 4: times last year.
- 8:47Speaker 3: There, I just said it again, have you been in
- 8:50Speaker 3: that time? I never left the place. Yeah.
- 8:51Speaker 4: Well, my and my temp, my temp goes straight to
- 8:55Speaker 4: fucking two hundred and eighty degrees goes red as soon
- 8:58Speaker 4: as I hit that long while road. Man, I'm just
- 9:01Speaker 4: I'm chewing the fucking steering and will gone. I don't
- 9:04Speaker 4: what is this my temper? I want to kill the world.
- 9:08Speaker 4: I want to fucking level Dublin raised to the ground, like.
- 9:12Speaker 3: Do you do you think that all of that was
- 9:15Speaker 3: outweighed by the fact that you build a house and
- 9:17Speaker 3: adopted two goats.
- 9:19Speaker 4: Well, I didn't have bought the fucking goats. I mean, yeah, okay,
- 9:22Speaker 4: I am taking care of him, but yeah, and probably
- 9:24Speaker 4: yeah building the house. Putting the roof over the fan's
- 9:26Speaker 4: head is that yeah, But I was put it over
- 9:29Speaker 4: my head, isn't it. I think yeah. A lot of
- 9:32Speaker 4: it has been fairly self serving. I helped I picked
- 9:37Speaker 4: an old woman's shopping bag up off the ground for
- 9:39Speaker 4: the other day, helped her out with that. I plastered
- 9:42Speaker 4: the brother in law ceiling for nothing the other evening.
- 9:45Speaker 4: That was for free. I say that out loud. But
- 9:47Speaker 4: you know, Jerry's the eyebrother.
- 9:50Speaker 3: Het pebble dashed the wall coming out of the pub
- 9:53Speaker 3: the other night.
- 9:57Speaker 4: You know full well, I'm keeping the chamber of like yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 10:01Speaker 4: you know what I need.
- 10:03Speaker 3: But I I you know what, for the purpose of
- 10:07Speaker 3: this bit, I'd be good enough. The opportunities you had
- 10:10Speaker 3: to beat the fuck out of a load of people
- 10:11Speaker 3: that just wind you up, and you didn't.
- 10:15Speaker 4: I lost. I went nuclear probably three times.
- 10:18Speaker 3: Throughout the year. Nuclear Like that's not going for you though.
- 10:21Speaker 4: No, No, I'm getting much much better. I think it's
- 10:24Speaker 4: it's living with the goats, living in the forest. I
- 10:26Speaker 4: think I'm I'm becoming a bit more samurai, you know
- 10:30Speaker 4: what I mean, cool, clam collected and fucking chernobyl when
- 10:36Speaker 4: I need to be like so, I think I and
- 10:38Speaker 4: that's fine, that's all right. I think it's it's it's
- 10:41Speaker 4: it's a healthy thing, isn't it to blow up? Every
- 10:42Speaker 4: so often? I think should we be similar in all
- 10:46Speaker 4: the time?
- 10:47Speaker 3: I like to think I've been pretty good this year
- 10:48Speaker 3: as well, like I've I've I've god knows, I've shown
- 10:52Speaker 3: up every week for this horseship.
- 10:54Speaker 4: Yeah hard, just about. It's Jerry's been AI for like
- 11:04Speaker 4: episode seventy nine through once.
- 11:06Speaker 3: Once we once we figured out that you could just
- 11:08Speaker 3: feed the feed the transcripts from Spotify straight back into
- 11:12Speaker 3: AI and say give us, give us something like this
- 11:14Speaker 3: again there pal.
- 11:16Speaker 4: By the way, did you see the email I sent you?
- 11:18Speaker 3: They're doing we we we We've been taking a look,
- 11:20Speaker 3: ladies and gentlemen. I'm telling you, I'm taking a look
- 11:23Speaker 3: at some transcripts from the show and some of the
- 11:25Speaker 3: things we discussed on the show and that might show
- 11:27Speaker 3: up and the that might show up in a later episode.
- 11:28Speaker 3: We keep a power of trying that. But if we
- 11:30Speaker 3: deliver that, buddy, I'm gonna tell you one thing that'll
- 11:33Speaker 3: get us on the on the night on the nice list.
- 11:35Speaker 4: I think I think it will. Uh so right o,
- 11:40Speaker 4: getting let's press on into it because everybody wants to
- 11:42Speaker 4: know and feel free by the way to just go
- 11:45Speaker 4: you know what in case I forget to say that
- 11:47Speaker 4: the end, but I don't typically, right, Joe, what do
- 11:50Speaker 4: you what do you reckon? You want hypothetical or dream
- 11:54Speaker 4: scenario writ and in the comments what you think you'd
- 11:57Speaker 4: like of set? Definitely so so Jar, Let's let's say
- 12:00Speaker 4: I know you're going to have good ones because I
- 12:02Speaker 4: know you put tall.
- 12:04Speaker 3: Two things I want to ask for, Tom, I'm going
- 12:05Speaker 3: to ask for one, and then we'll we'll swap over
- 12:07Speaker 3: from back go on. The first thing I want to
- 12:10Speaker 3: ask is for something that you know, the way when
- 12:13Speaker 3: you were little and you might put something on your
- 12:14Speaker 3: sandy list, and if it came or didn't come, or
- 12:17Speaker 3: came in an altered fashion, it kind of chased it
- 12:19Speaker 3: for a wee while after that, like, yeah, you know
- 12:22Speaker 3: that was the thing he didn't bring. Now, Santi was
- 12:24Speaker 3: always pretty good in their house that you always got
- 12:27Speaker 3: a fair approximation of what you asked for.
- 12:30Speaker 4: Is this do you reckon? This is something I could
- 12:32Speaker 4: start you out with, like like could I have this
- 12:34Speaker 4: in a scrap pile?
- 12:36Speaker 3: Well, this one in particular, possibly Sandy When I was
- 12:40Speaker 3: we he always sorted me out. So I don't really
- 12:42Speaker 3: have any grapes of dodges. Is he didn't get me
- 12:44Speaker 3: such and such? You know, I asked for ThunderCats and
- 12:47Speaker 3: he wouldn't. He didn't get me lying out, but he
- 12:49Speaker 3: got me you know, fucking tiger. He wasn't to note
- 12:52Speaker 3: it's a thundercat. I didn't specify. So what can I say?
- 12:55Speaker 4: Right, But that's your own doing that that that'll learn you.
- 12:59Speaker 3: But there was one thing I could have got as
- 13:01Speaker 3: a grown man that I didn't get And this has
- 13:06Speaker 3: pestered me for fifteen years term. I've mentioned it several
- 13:10Speaker 3: times on The Tom and Jerry Show. The night that
- 13:13Speaker 3: I was walking home from the train past someone's house
- 13:18Speaker 3: and they had a skip out the front of her. Now,
- 13:20Speaker 3: what is a skip, Tom except a big metal present?
- 13:24Speaker 4: Oh god, yeah, yeah, yeah. The should actually put a
- 13:26Speaker 4: paint a bill on the side.
- 13:27Speaker 3: They should paint a bowe that. I saw a bow
- 13:29Speaker 3: around this thing, like like you know the way, like
- 13:32Speaker 3: if you're starting, you know the way if a character
- 13:34Speaker 3: and character is starving on a desert island and it
- 13:36Speaker 3: looks over the guy with has turned into a ham
- 13:39Speaker 3: or something like that. I just looked at this skip
- 13:42Speaker 3: and it may as well have had a big bow
- 13:43Speaker 3: on it. I caught. I caught him just just before.
- 13:46Speaker 4: I caught a guy about to put a perfectly good
- 13:50Speaker 4: office chair into the skip the other day and on
- 13:53Speaker 4: the end of it, and I stopped him as what
- 13:54Speaker 4: the fuck are you doing? It's not wrong with that,
- 13:56Speaker 4: he because I know, but I have to officially throw
- 13:58Speaker 4: it out of him, can I went after he goes, no,
- 14:00Speaker 4: you can't. He says, it's on in industrial lend. That's
- 14:05Speaker 4: but it's perfectly fine office chair because I know, but
- 14:08Speaker 4: they're they're putting new ones here, so I'm chucking these
- 14:10Speaker 4: ones out of it.
- 14:11Speaker 3: Well, this is what's wrong with the fucking world. This
- 14:13Speaker 3: is what's wrong with the world. But this is what
- 14:14Speaker 3: I walked past on the way home. I was walk
- 14:17Speaker 3: past just like your standard skip, and in that skip
- 14:21Speaker 3: with some railway sleepers longtime listeners would have heard me
- 14:24Speaker 3: say this before the length of a railway sleeper is
- 14:28Speaker 3: eight foot long under the big nine by four proper
- 14:31Speaker 3: order sleepers, oh proper ones like oh yeah, Now you
- 14:34Speaker 3: think of what a skip looks like and you're thinking
- 14:37Speaker 3: it maybe people are thinking, ah yeah, and those like
- 14:39Speaker 3: sleepers are all broken and bashed and just like thrown
- 14:41Speaker 3: in and a load of dirt in on top of them.
- 14:43Speaker 3: All this kind of cracked. No, tom, these had been
- 14:45Speaker 3: stacked in the skip, laid flat the length of it
- 14:49Speaker 3: and if you can imagine, they're nine inches wide, so
- 14:51Speaker 3: there was like twelve or four twelve of them wide
- 14:53Speaker 3: the base of the skip and then just laid up
- 14:55Speaker 3: on top of it. Are you fucking cuting? You could
- 14:58Speaker 3: lift it with a forklift if it hadn't been in escape,
- 15:00Speaker 3: like literally stacked up on top of it. Honestly, at
- 15:03Speaker 3: a quick count, forty railway sleepers. Fuck okay, And I
- 15:09Speaker 3: know what you're doing right now about railway sleepers. Right now,
- 15:13Speaker 3: right I can tell you what railway sleep I can
- 15:16Speaker 3: tell you what railway sleepers. Time you have me as
- 15:19Speaker 3: I was hot and fresh out of the out of
- 15:21Speaker 3: that out of the builder suppliers game and at the
- 15:23Speaker 3: time we were selling railway sleepers like what they called
- 15:28Speaker 3: new railway sleepers, which was basically four by nine by
- 15:31Speaker 3: fourth analyzed and they were twenty five yuros a piece.
- 15:34Speaker 4: And the ones you were looking at where they were
- 15:37Speaker 4: railway sleeper, which will they will outlast the apocalypty.
- 15:41Speaker 3: They'll never rot.
- 15:42Speaker 4: They have been so impressed with our good old favorite,
- 15:48Speaker 4: which has made a few appearances on the podcast Creoso
- 15:52Speaker 4: and Tar. On top of that, you are never getting
- 15:55Speaker 4: through these things like they had. I don't would for
- 16:00Speaker 4: today's money. Do you want to tell me how much
- 16:01Speaker 4: to wear was?
- 16:02Speaker 3: Well, you know at easy at easy sums, if there
- 16:04Speaker 3: were if there was forty of them when they were
- 16:06Speaker 3: twenty five years a piece, then.
- 16:07Speaker 4: That's it's eighteen zero. Well they were gone up to
- 16:17Speaker 4: forty six zero, right, and that.
- 16:21Speaker 3: Ships in now. At the time, Tom, it must be said,
- 16:24Speaker 3: I didn't own the house that I was in. I
- 16:26Speaker 3: was renting the house. And you couldn't put forty sleepers
- 16:30Speaker 3: anywhere in the No, no, no, there's nowhere to put them.
- 16:34Speaker 3: There's no way I could get forty sleepers out of that.
- 16:36Speaker 3: But it was it was like watching it was like
- 16:38Speaker 3: watching the horse drown in never ending story.
- 16:41Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, it was just like you can't go, you
- 16:45Speaker 4: can't go. I can imagine stand in the middle of
- 16:48Speaker 4: the street just looking around hoping for other men, which
- 16:52Speaker 4: a cry so.
- 16:53Speaker 3: Surely somebody could do something to save these sleepers, and
- 16:55Speaker 3: they were just being yet And I went back there.
- 16:57Speaker 3: I went back the next day walking to the train,
- 17:00Speaker 3: and the skip skip had been left and gone. I
- 17:02Speaker 3: can promise you wanting, Yeah, that skip didn't want to
- 17:08Speaker 3: go anywhere near a dump, did it?
- 17:11Speaker 4: Fuck?
- 17:12Speaker 3: Did anywhere near a dump.
- 17:14Speaker 4: I've often taught in a fantasy world to actually start working,
- 17:19Speaker 4: to get my truck license and to work for a
- 17:21Speaker 4: scrip skip company because honestly, now they have the space. Okay,
- 17:25Speaker 4: the wife would probably have been of an issue. But
- 17:27Speaker 4: if I built a bit of a compound, do you
- 17:28Speaker 4: know what I mean? And just out of railway sleepers,
- 17:31Speaker 4: out of railway sleepers, like but like I did you
- 17:36Speaker 4: just you know, I.
- 17:37Speaker 3: Keep assuming that everybody knows what we're talking about. A
- 17:39Speaker 3: railway sleeper is a big honky timber.
- 17:41Speaker 4: It's a big the yoke. It's the yoke that the
- 17:43Speaker 4: lady would be tied in the cartoons. Yeah, the chunk
- 17:46Speaker 4: of the chukker would underneath the actual steel railway, and
- 17:51Speaker 4: they get they got to replace. A lot of them
- 17:52Speaker 4: got replaced with with concrete ones, which wasn't wasn't a
- 17:56Speaker 4: great idea because it takes zero impact whatsoever the bastards.
- 18:00Speaker 4: And then a lot of these ended up being reclaimed
- 18:02Speaker 4: and you'll find them in garden centers and stuff like that.
- 18:04Speaker 4: If you ever get a chance to get your hands
- 18:06Speaker 4: on them, hang on to them, get them because.
- 18:08Speaker 3: People, you know, remember in the mid two thousands, everybody
- 18:11Speaker 3: went mad putting in raised beds and things like that. Yeah, yeah,
- 18:14Speaker 3: wellever who was throwing these out of the garden Tom
- 18:16Speaker 3: most have had like a raised nursery. Yeah, forty of
- 18:20Speaker 3: them there like this, Think about what that would be.
- 18:24Speaker 3: Where would you have them in the house. But regardless
- 18:26Speaker 3: of that, and that was just had a guess forty
- 18:28Speaker 3: there might have been more. So all this to say,
- 18:32Speaker 3: I've always regretted not at least freeing ten of them
- 18:36Speaker 3: sleepers out of that skip. I'd have found a home
- 18:38Speaker 3: for them, Tame. I swear to God, she's having to
- 18:40Speaker 3: come up to you j the moved house with me.
- 18:43Speaker 3: So if Santy can see it in his heart to
- 18:46Speaker 3: get me forty kree as so treated railway slivers, which Tom,
- 18:52Speaker 3: I stress I have no need for in the wide
- 18:55Speaker 3: early world, hitch patch. You'll get them up here and
- 18:58Speaker 3: I'll build a fucking little house on the prairie log
- 19:01Speaker 3: cabin with it at the back.
- 19:03Speaker 4: I mean you die the fumes inside after, you know,
- 19:05Speaker 4: during the summer, but it's look as shit, you know.
- 19:10Speaker 4: If you if you need a bomb shelter, just put
- 19:12Speaker 4: it at the back.
- 19:14Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, you're done. So Santa, if you're out there,
- 19:17Speaker 3: if you think I've been a good boy, I would
- 19:19Speaker 3: like sixteen hundred euros worth of railway sleepers in.
- 19:24Speaker 4: A skip and actually delivered in a skip to Jerry.
- 19:27Speaker 3: Leave the skip there.
- 19:29Speaker 4: Imagine the glee on your little face pressed against the
- 19:32Speaker 4: window of a bee beep coming in the driveway. I
- 19:36Speaker 4: can just see your man just shlings off this fucking
- 19:38Speaker 4: thing with the chains. Hey, I would, and just drops
- 19:40Speaker 4: a big fucking skip and injure after that you get
- 19:44Speaker 4: to fill the skipboard shite from around the house.
- 19:47Speaker 3: Tom, I swear to God, if and he leaves this
- 19:49Speaker 3: skip full of railway sleepers, he can drop it on
- 19:51Speaker 3: the car if you want. So that is the first
- 19:57Speaker 3: item on my santas Tom.
- 19:59Speaker 4: They I I it didn't at the second you put
- 20:03Speaker 4: it to me. I said, it doesn't take me much
- 20:04Speaker 4: thinking here, And like I said, we'll leaven off realistic
- 20:07Speaker 4: things for me anyway, especially very realistic things for me,
- 20:10Speaker 4: because the I'm doing all right for bits and bobs,
- 20:14Speaker 4: you're not. I'm okay right now, Like you know, I've
- 20:17Speaker 4: got I know what you meantime, I don't know my favorite.
- 20:20Speaker 3: Pocket knife right here?
- 20:21Speaker 4: Do you know what I mean? Not en awful lot,
- 20:23Speaker 4: I'm not very much. I'm a good measuring tape up here,
- 20:27Speaker 4: you know, Like there's it's I could do actually with
- 20:29Speaker 4: a couple of measure taps. But to be fair, I'm
- 20:31Speaker 4: happy enough to go out and get them myself, you
- 20:32Speaker 4: know what I mean. But if if I could, I would.
- 20:37Speaker 4: And this is a long stretch. And I listened back
- 20:40Speaker 4: to our podcast to make sure and any other things
- 20:42Speaker 4: I've been on. And I listened to myself a lot
- 20:44Speaker 4: through fucking speakers, so I hear myself back a lot,
- 20:47Speaker 4: and every soingle often ILL feel sorry for the people
- 20:50Speaker 4: having to listen to my voice here, as there was
- 20:53Speaker 4: direct results of one particular thing. I can't breathe out
- 20:57Speaker 4: of one nostril, can't, can't medically can't.
- 21:04Speaker 3: It's killing home where the creon stuck up his nose for.
- 21:06Speaker 4: I wish that's all it was. I wish that's all
- 21:09Speaker 4: it was. But I did a thing, and what really
- 21:11Speaker 4: brought home was that the wife was like, good Jesus,
- 21:14Speaker 4: we're gonna have to get We're gonna have to get
- 21:15Speaker 4: something done about that fucking knows yours. Man. You can't
- 21:18Speaker 4: breathe at night. You're like sleep apnea. Man, you keep
- 21:22Speaker 4: on almost dying, like throughout the night. So I see
- 21:25Speaker 4: this Irish company, right, and this is after This isn't
- 21:27Speaker 4: the long term, This isn't a long term solution, and
- 21:31Speaker 4: this isn't what I want from Scenti, But this is
- 21:33Speaker 4: what led me to what I want from SENTI. A
- 21:35Speaker 4: company in an Irish company. I'm sure they're everywhere, but
- 21:38Speaker 4: they're one of these nose stretching things for them your
- 21:41Speaker 4: nighttime sleeping right, the clippy fuck major. I could for
- 21:46Speaker 4: the first time in I would say eighteen years, I
- 21:49Speaker 4: could bleep breed down this left nostril. I had the
- 21:53Speaker 4: most unbelievable mad dreams because my brain was actually getting oxygen.
- 21:57Speaker 3: For the first time.
- 22:00Speaker 4: Your brain just wasn't drowning on like like you wouldn't
- 22:03Speaker 4: believe now, I mean it is self inflicted. You know
- 22:06Speaker 4: what I mean.
- 22:06Speaker 3: I put it.
- 22:07Speaker 4: I put that shape on my nose. It was a
- 22:09Speaker 4: perfectly fine nose to be born with. But we can
- 22:11Speaker 4: all guess what Tom did to get his fucking nose
- 22:13Speaker 4: turned inside out at least six times. And I give
- 22:16Speaker 4: him bad manner, give him bad manners, and I'll never
- 22:19Speaker 4: forget breaking my nose for the very very first time.
- 22:23Speaker 4: A fucking snapped like sideways like and tough love.
- 22:27Speaker 3: I don't know if it sounds like a tool chest
- 22:29Speaker 3: falls fucking brutal.
- 22:33Speaker 4: And I was maybe about forty years of age now,
- 22:36Speaker 4: and an old guy. The same guy stitched my forehead.
- 22:39Speaker 4: He was a vet. He stitched the top of my
- 22:41Speaker 4: forehead here someday I'll shave my hair and showed you
- 22:44Speaker 4: he stitched to used cattle fucking thread. It's a way
- 22:49Speaker 4: tigger like. It was a clean split and it's now
- 22:51Speaker 4: a big fucking quarter in half inch fucking But the
- 22:55Speaker 4: same guy just to oh, hold and I remember Hi
- 22:57Speaker 4: catching me by the underneath the jaw. I just go
- 23:00Speaker 4: right because here eyes and he just yanked it out
- 23:04Speaker 4: as in the same way you'd pull a key, move
- 23:07Speaker 4: it over the side, and run it back in and
- 23:11Speaker 4: fucking half a hell of blood later, fucking mixed with
- 23:14Speaker 4: the same amount of tears and two cotton bolts up
- 23:17Speaker 4: my nose. He sent me back out, run around the
- 23:18Speaker 4: fucking pitch. But ever since then it means it snaps like,
- 23:21Speaker 4: no problem, but I can't breathe through my nose, so
- 23:24Speaker 4: my clip.
- 23:25Speaker 3: Don't send, dear Tim like I'll send one of these
- 23:27Speaker 3: up to you, No I have.
- 23:28Speaker 4: I have a pack of these things now and they're
- 23:30Speaker 4: doing unbelievable work. But they're not the long term solutions
- 23:34Speaker 4: because what I hear I'm not wearing one now. What
- 23:36Speaker 4: I hear now through my ears, because I'm very conscious
- 23:38Speaker 4: of it now, is how fucking easily I am through
- 23:40Speaker 4: the And you're used to me at this stage, beautiful buddy,
- 23:43Speaker 4: thanks very much. But I know I could sound sweeter.
- 23:46Speaker 4: I could sound sweeter, and sweet is your job, Tom,
- 23:49Speaker 4: that's your stock in trade. So with that, with that,
- 23:53Speaker 4: I think it would be solved to a degree. I
- 23:55Speaker 4: can do nothing about my accent or what the voice
- 23:57Speaker 4: sounds like. But I think at least the knee easily
- 24:00Speaker 4: tumber would be taken off it if Santy, if you
- 24:05Speaker 4: could see your way somehow to bring in Tom.
- 24:10Speaker 3: A new nose, a nose job, rhino past, yeah, I
- 24:14Speaker 3: guess so. Yeah, it's something you can do to himself
- 24:16Speaker 3: while they're sleeping.
- 24:17Speaker 4: But whatever he wants to work away, whatever he's gonna do,
- 24:20Speaker 4: she gets.
- 24:20Speaker 3: The little silver gil and the little silver Hammersy.
- 24:24Speaker 4: I would say he's probably going to need a dreaming
- 24:28Speaker 4: bit and just fucking burrow a new hole. I don't care. Ius,
- 24:33Speaker 4: if he's got to go in the side, I'm left
- 24:35Speaker 4: with a new fucking nostril. I don't care.
- 24:38Speaker 3: But to get me back for car all year and uh,
- 24:41Speaker 3: you've been a good boy and I know you deserved this,
- 24:44Speaker 3: and I hope Santy brings this to you. But do
- 24:47Speaker 3: you not fear that you're gonna get what Baby from
- 24:52Speaker 3: Dirty Dance and ended up with Jennifer Gray? Oh yeah,
- 24:55Speaker 3: one of those, Remember what happened?
- 24:56Speaker 4: Her nose would have been weird.
- 24:59Speaker 3: She she was the lady that played them Baby and
- 25:02Speaker 3: Dirty Dance, and she was fairest Puel sister as well,
- 25:04Speaker 3: that's right, yeah, yeah, yeah, she was called Jennifer.
- 25:06Speaker 4: Gray way better as as first Budier sister.
- 25:10Speaker 3: Yeah, and she had a nose job in or whatever
- 25:13Speaker 3: it was twenty fifth, twenty five, twenty six or whatever
- 25:15Speaker 3: it was she was, and it changed her face so
- 25:18Speaker 3: completely that nobody hired her again because they're like, well,
- 25:22Speaker 3: we want the lady from dirty Dancing, and we want
- 25:24Speaker 3: the lady from a fairest peeler's day off, and who
- 25:29Speaker 3: the fuck is this person walking through the door? Who
- 25:31Speaker 3: are you? You know, you look nothing like what we wanted.
- 25:35Speaker 3: Are you not afraid that people have grown so used
- 25:37Speaker 3: to your voice? I mean you've built a podcast empire
- 25:40Speaker 3: off the back of a buddy. If you suddenly rocking like, oh,
- 25:44Speaker 3: what's the tom old man? This show Sea during Jerry,
- 25:49Speaker 3: what the fuck is this guy?
- 25:51Speaker 4: It's a valid point you made, but you know what,
- 25:53Speaker 4: much like you landing on with the fucking sleepers and
- 25:56Speaker 4: not knowing what to do with him. I will, they say,
- 25:57Speaker 4: the chance to will take a chance. We'll lean into
- 25:59Speaker 4: it at the very least so my wife doesn't wake
- 26:03Speaker 4: up ten times a night on is he going to die?
- 26:05Speaker 4: Is he gonna die tell you, I'll tell you.
- 26:07Speaker 3: I'll tell you what. Okay, Sandy fixes your nose right, yeah, yeah,
- 26:11Speaker 3: it causes a fall in the listenership of the Tom
- 26:13Speaker 3: and Jerry Show. I'll break it.
- 26:14Speaker 4: Again after a fucking hide behind your sleepers.
- 26:19Speaker 3: Be like I'd be like, tell me help me lift
- 26:21Speaker 3: these sleepers catch.
- 26:22Speaker 4: Yeah, but the end of a sleeper into nose, it
- 26:25Speaker 4: was going so well. Tom, I'm so sorry we've only thirty.
- 26:34Speaker 3: Nine more of these move buddy.
- 26:35Speaker 4: Folks, say I. I I think because it actually had
- 26:42Speaker 4: a visceral effect on my sleep I genuinely think I
- 26:47Speaker 4: probably do need to both get my nose bored out.
- 26:50Speaker 4: I ain't changing the shape, but I just need him
- 26:51Speaker 4: to put a new hole up the side of it.
- 26:54Speaker 4: I clean out whatever the fuck bonus gone sideways inside
- 26:56Speaker 4: of the thing, just to right. I know, I know
- 26:59Speaker 4: people have gone a done after years to go and well,
- 27:02Speaker 4: I'm not going to get into too many more scraps,
- 27:04Speaker 4: I hope, and I should be playing contact. I never
- 27:08Speaker 4: you never know, you never know. I mean, like I said,
- 27:10Speaker 4: you go nuclear three times in the year. Not too bad,
- 27:13Speaker 4: but it could have gone nuclear and ended up in
- 27:16Speaker 4: the fucking fisty cuffs and then break break my brand
- 27:18Speaker 4: new notes. But it's a risk of will to take
- 27:20Speaker 4: care because, like I said, it would seem. I also
- 27:24Speaker 4: don't want to end up with get more of those
- 27:25Speaker 4: fat guye fucking things on my name. You know, those
- 27:27Speaker 4: things were sleep happening like like one of those fucking
- 27:32Speaker 4: motorized fucking Jennies beside the Paige.
- 27:34Speaker 3: But I am You've been a good boy. I hope
- 27:37Speaker 3: Sally brings you your new nose.
- 27:39Speaker 4: I love it. I love it. That's all I want.
- 27:41Speaker 4: It's a new nose.
- 27:42Speaker 3: I tell you the next one. The second thing I
- 27:44Speaker 3: want for myself before I get into what I want
- 27:46Speaker 3: for someone else, second thing I want for myself is
- 27:51Speaker 3: actually within the realms of possibility, okay, right, because you know,
- 27:54Speaker 3: one of the popular things that people will get for
- 27:56Speaker 3: Christmas is electronics and some such. And look around me, Tom,
- 27:59Speaker 3: and I'm hurting for electronics. No pewterl games, and I
- 28:03Speaker 3: have game boys, and you've got stuff coming out the wazoo.
- 28:06Speaker 3: And I have an iPhone and a computer. You know,
- 28:10Speaker 3: we live blessed lives. Tom, You know what I mean.
- 28:12Speaker 4: Speaking into fucking microphones with headphones.
- 28:16Speaker 3: The two of us, look at us. So now this
- 28:18Speaker 3: is one of these first world problems that I'm hoping
- 28:20Speaker 3: Santi can fix, and I know that he can. But
- 28:24Speaker 3: I know that I can fix a tomb. But I
- 28:27Speaker 3: need a little bit of a jump to.
- 28:30Speaker 4: Jump start un jumple that fucking pile of wires that
- 28:32Speaker 4: are inside that drawer and finding that's.
- 28:34Speaker 3: Exactly, That's exactly it what I need. What I need
- 28:39Speaker 3: to build in this room. What I need to build
- 28:43Speaker 3: in this room is what I'm referring to in my
- 28:46Speaker 3: dream journal as a centralized charging station. Yeah, where when
- 28:52Speaker 3: the children are finished playing their Nintendo's and the iPad
- 28:56Speaker 3: is dead, and there's a set of Bluetooth headphones on there,
- 29:00Speaker 3: and my we yearbuds that I got running it they're dead.
- 29:03Speaker 3: And my phone is dead. And the Maria phone that
- 29:07Speaker 3: I used to have that I give to the children
- 29:08Speaker 3: just to make we videos and things like that to
- 29:10Speaker 3: play with is dead. Do you know where all that
- 29:13Speaker 3: stuff gets charged? Tom No more, because it's just left
- 29:16Speaker 3: lying around the fucking house, right. And then all of
- 29:19Speaker 3: a sudden it's like, Daddy, my headphones aren't working. I say, no,
- 29:22Speaker 3: how come? How come my switches in charge? Well? Did
- 29:25Speaker 3: you plug it in. Where did that become a me job?
- 29:28Speaker 3: Do you see what I'm saying?
- 29:29Speaker 4: I think I could make you one of those.
- 29:33Speaker 3: Well, this is it. I have a kind of bit
- 29:34Speaker 3: of it, Like I've got cables coming out over here
- 29:37Speaker 3: that will charge you know, you know the we power
- 29:41Speaker 3: packs that you carry around which it just charging on
- 29:44Speaker 3: the go, So they need to get charged every two
- 29:46Speaker 3: or three days. And the doorbell of the house needs
- 29:49Speaker 3: to get charged. And there's like there's a there's a
- 29:51Speaker 3: little an old phone that we put just put a
- 29:55Speaker 3: cover on it for the for the children just to
- 29:57Speaker 3: play act with and make we videos and whatnot. Like
- 30:01Speaker 3: it all gets charged. But it's all like all over
- 30:03Speaker 3: the place. And no matter how many cables I have
- 30:05Speaker 3: about the place, every now and then it's like I
- 30:08Speaker 3: don't have a charger for an iPhone. I don't have
- 30:10Speaker 3: a charger for the kindle. I don't have a charger
- 30:13Speaker 3: for this, that and the other. I need one desk
- 30:16Speaker 3: and over there is the place for it, right the
- 30:18Speaker 3: quar point. You can the rest of the people can't see.
- 30:20Speaker 3: I want a desk or a station, or a bureau
- 30:26Speaker 3: or a freaking arm wore. I don't know what it is.
- 30:28Speaker 3: I want Tom, but I want it there. I wanted
- 30:30Speaker 3: to have cables for everything in the house. She's had
- 30:36Speaker 3: anything in the house that needs a cable plugged into
- 30:39Speaker 3: it can be charged at this station. The wee Man
- 30:42Speaker 3: has a The we man has like a sort of
- 30:45Speaker 3: like a watch, a school friendly watch that you can
- 30:49Speaker 3: you know, you can counter steps and you can if
- 30:51Speaker 3: he's in trouble or anthing like that, we can message him,
- 30:53Speaker 3: but he can't message anybody else, you know that sort
- 30:55Speaker 3: of way. Okay, he's got a weird charger like it's
- 30:57Speaker 3: got a weird charger like that. I don't know if
- 30:58Speaker 3: you can see that?
- 31:00Speaker 4: Is that? Now?
- 31:00Speaker 3: See?
- 31:00Speaker 4: That's just why not put a regular USB like like
- 31:05Speaker 4: what the christ?
- 31:06Speaker 3: So there's a couple of charters like that lying around
- 31:10Speaker 3: that Number one, you're gonna lose them. Number two where
- 31:14Speaker 3: they're gonna be when you when you go looking for them.
- 31:16Speaker 3: Things like this. I need everything in one place, Santa.
- 31:22Speaker 3: That's my only wish this year. Now, what do I need?
- 31:25Speaker 3: I could get on Amazon and order or an extension
- 31:28Speaker 3: socket with USB's on it, and then I can this
- 31:31Speaker 3: could get done, This could get made. This is not
- 31:33Speaker 3: you know an undoable thing. But I have to do it,
- 31:36Speaker 3: and I will do it Tom when I get a
- 31:39Speaker 3: bit of a head start, Sandy help me out, brother, Yeah,
- 31:44Speaker 3: I could see.
- 31:44Speaker 4: Do you know what, Maybe Santy just needs to have
- 31:46Speaker 4: a sit down to you until you get the finger out.
- 31:48Speaker 3: I can just Maybe he does, Tom, Maybe he does.
- 31:50Speaker 4: I do.
- 31:51Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 31:51Speaker 4: I think a desk, maybe two of those lens us
- 31:54Speaker 4: fucking plug boards with this with the USB sockets as
- 31:57Speaker 4: well as actual plug sockets in it. I see, this
- 32:01Speaker 4: is the thing.
- 32:02Speaker 3: I think like actual plug sockets is the way to go.
- 32:04Speaker 3: I think it is.
- 32:05Speaker 4: And then you could bring it up tasty through you
- 32:06Speaker 4: know that. You get the desks that have to pop
- 32:08Speaker 4: off little pop ups, yes, yeah, and a nice bit
- 32:11Speaker 4: of thin you know, the the flexible conduit. You could
- 32:13Speaker 4: bring that right up nice and.
- 32:15Speaker 3: Tasty, you see what I'm saying. And the desk things
- 32:17Speaker 3: that the desk things that you bore a hole down
- 32:19Speaker 3: through it and you feed the cable down through it
- 32:21Speaker 3: so you don't see cables anywhere all used to take
- 32:24Speaker 3: the end of the cable, stick, plug whatever you want
- 32:27Speaker 3: into it.
- 32:28Speaker 4: I think we just major danger.
- 32:30Speaker 3: Come on, let me let me do it for You's
- 32:33Speaker 3: not you know, and I could go out to Tike
- 32:35Speaker 3: and get a little desk or some such that I
- 32:37Speaker 3: could wouldn't mind driven holes in them. Do you know
- 32:39Speaker 3: what we should do?
- 32:40Speaker 4: We should make it fucking We should make a vlog
- 32:42Speaker 4: or a podcast over us making that fucking table, because
- 32:45Speaker 4: I tell you now, every man, woman and beast in
- 32:48Speaker 4: this country wants that fucking table.
- 32:50Speaker 3: Because why do I get a feeling time that that
- 32:53Speaker 3: vlog would only be shown by the Dublin firefighters. So
- 33:00Speaker 3: who's mistake number one?
- 33:02Speaker 4: No, no, no, we put we put breakers on it.
- 33:04Speaker 4: We put breakers on it, Jeric, we get the we
- 33:06Speaker 4: do it safe. We put breakers on it so it
- 33:08Speaker 4: doesn't blow up your fucking house or said fire to all.
- 33:10Speaker 3: We do a proper job of it.
- 33:12Speaker 4: But at the same time, even even the desk for
- 33:14Speaker 4: the correct desk for Santy, let SENTI scan the world
- 33:18Speaker 4: Wide Web for the correct desk for us to start with.
- 33:21Speaker 3: So like Santy, you know, you know what I'm up here.
- 33:23Speaker 3: And also I would like it not to be big,
- 33:25Speaker 3: because I'm fighting for space here as well. No, no, no,
- 33:27Speaker 3: I would like to like not just see all the
- 33:28Speaker 3: ships sitting on the top of it. I wanted to
- 33:30Speaker 3: some tasty you know what we'll.
- 33:31Speaker 4: Do, Jerry, you know the little the little the little
- 33:34Speaker 4: chocks for actually sitting things in at the angle for reading. Yeah,
- 33:37Speaker 4: so we get a plethora of those fucking things. They'll
- 33:40Speaker 4: hold the phone, they'll hold the tablets, they'll yeah, so
- 33:42Speaker 4: we get a plitar of them. So when you walk
- 33:44Speaker 4: into the room, everything's fucking kind of glowing at the
- 33:46Speaker 4: one time you sit it in there like a manually
- 33:48Speaker 4: fucking human with the thing brought right up to it,
- 33:50Speaker 4: like the dick end of the charge that brought right
- 33:52Speaker 4: up into it. So here we go, and then you
- 33:55Speaker 4: put a warning to the entire family. If this is
- 33:59Speaker 4: left in any fucking shape beyond, then the thing that
- 34:05Speaker 4: you go to charge it's gone.
- 34:07Speaker 3: Won't be Yeah, it's gone. It's good if you come
- 34:09Speaker 3: and you know, I have made a centralized charging station
- 34:13Speaker 3: with a cable for every single fucking thing in this house.
- 34:16Speaker 3: So don't come crying to me that your switch isn't
- 34:18Speaker 3: charged it.
- 34:20Speaker 4: Do you know what, You've just eliminated a whole pile
- 34:23Speaker 4: of round.
- 34:24Speaker 3: I've I've done away with a whole pile of a round.
- 34:26Speaker 3: It's a real simple thing. It's not charged and you.
- 34:30Speaker 4: Pay me, then that's exactly That's exactly what it is.
- 34:33Speaker 3: It's not fucking charge. I'm horribly sorry he gave me
- 34:38Speaker 3: a charge.
- 34:38Speaker 4: And what did they give you the will to have
- 34:43Speaker 4: the fucking manners to go?
- 34:45Speaker 3: You want to think charge? I have a place to charge.
- 34:48Speaker 3: Jesus there. I think you're on together, buddy. So if
- 34:52Speaker 3: I get both, if I get forty railway sleepers on
- 34:55Speaker 3: a charging station, I'll be a delighted man.
- 34:57Speaker 4: I think you have been good enough for it. In fairness,
- 34:59Speaker 4: I've seen the way. I've seen the way you've been
- 35:00Speaker 4: carrying carrying yourself answer the year, and I see the
- 35:04Speaker 4: way i'd even know problem going make a new one.
- 35:06Speaker 4: And I'm not scenty. I said to me, Jerry deserves this,
- 35:10Speaker 4: as he deserves this. He yes, he does bring a
- 35:13Speaker 4: lot of stress into his life with the amount of
- 35:15Speaker 4: electrical items he has, but it is what it is,
- 35:17Speaker 4: he is where he is. The poor man has to
- 35:20Speaker 4: have his vice. And I think for the good nature
- 35:23Speaker 4: that you've been all year, I think SENTI do Jerry
- 35:26Speaker 4: a solid, here, do.
- 35:26Speaker 3: Me a solid? There sany What about you? Tom? What's
- 35:29Speaker 3: the second and final thing you would like from santy
- 35:31Speaker 3: for your good self.
- 35:32Speaker 4: I again, I'm okay for things, you know, but I
- 35:36Speaker 4: do have aspirations of stuff that I would like around
- 35:39Speaker 4: the place. But I like things in order, much like yourself, Jerry,
- 35:42Speaker 4: and I've obviously gotten two cool goats, and they're performing
- 35:47Speaker 4: exactly as they're supposed. Yes, okay, they're fucking breaking in
- 35:51Speaker 4: out the whole time, but they break back in these
- 35:53Speaker 4: as much as they do out these days. But they're
- 35:55Speaker 4: mowing the place down. They're revealing fucking odd sorts. Oh,
- 35:58Speaker 4: by the way, found and as a result of these
- 36:01Speaker 4: goats found an old old which I think may have
- 36:05Speaker 4: belonged to the grandfather or some stage front wheel off
- 36:07Speaker 4: what I believe was an old messy ferguson front. And
- 36:11Speaker 4: they've revealed two beautiful old worldly esb polls. They're not
- 36:20Speaker 4: that much, so I have a use for them for
- 36:22Speaker 4: the things. Do you know what? They keep going?
- 36:26Speaker 3: They're doing a great fucking job.
- 36:28Speaker 4: So I like it. I like a thing that pulls
- 36:30Speaker 4: its weight, you know what I mean? I like a
- 36:32Speaker 4: thing that pulls its weight around here.
- 36:34Speaker 3: Like the dog's good.
- 36:36Speaker 4: She's a good do you know what, She's just a
- 36:37Speaker 4: good fucking doorbell. I'll tell you from and she'll tell
- 36:41Speaker 4: you from three hundred yards away if something's comment and
- 36:44Speaker 4: then she loses her biscuits. And at first, for the
- 36:46Speaker 4: longest time, I was like, I don't be barking so much.
- 36:48Speaker 4: But now I'm all right with it.
- 36:49Speaker 3: Chair well, a happy time. I just want to say
- 36:52Speaker 3: one thing, and I only learned this very recently. You're
- 36:55Speaker 3: familiar with the R E M song losing my Religion?
- 36:57Speaker 4: Yes I am, yeah, yes, yes.
- 36:59Speaker 3: Have you have a question what the frige phrase losing
- 37:02Speaker 3: my religion is?
- 37:03Speaker 4: That's me in the corner. I didn't know. I just
- 37:06Speaker 4: I just thought he fell out with religion.
- 37:09Speaker 3: I honestly, for all my off for the thirty five
- 37:12Speaker 3: years that I've known that song, felt that he was
- 37:14Speaker 3: like losing his place with God. That it was, you know,
- 37:20Speaker 3: very deep spiritual, sort of hurt deep.
- 37:23Speaker 4: That's what I thought, because her em.
- 37:25Speaker 3: No, nope, nope. Come to find out, losing my religion
- 37:28Speaker 3: is just a statement from where Michael Stipe's from, and
- 37:33Speaker 3: it's very much like you said, they'll lose your biscuits.
- 37:34Speaker 4: It's right.
- 37:35Speaker 3: For Jesus sake, your man pulled out in front of me.
- 37:38Speaker 3: I lost my religion at him all together, go away.
- 37:40Speaker 3: It's really it's a real culture thing to say in America. Jesus,
- 37:45Speaker 3: you want to see Tom there the other night by
- 37:47Speaker 3: he just got what he got, one hit to the
- 37:49Speaker 3: head too much. He fucking lost his religion and went
- 37:51Speaker 3: ruly boolia altogether.
- 37:53Speaker 4: I fucking had a figurian fucking up uphill down there.
- 37:56Speaker 3: I changed the whole time, like that's me in the
- 37:57Speaker 3: corner there, losing me religion.
- 37:59Speaker 4: Don't mind, have a lot more respect for that song.
- 38:01Speaker 4: Now there's a fellow going fucking ape.
- 38:03Speaker 3: I like that, tell you, because I was like, come
- 38:06Speaker 3: to the end of the night, I was losing my religion,
- 38:07Speaker 3: so I was.
- 38:08Speaker 4: But much time usual, the dog does pull her weight
- 38:12Speaker 4: as well, you know what I mean. I like utility
- 38:14Speaker 4: based fucking things. And I I said, look, because we
- 38:18Speaker 4: were we were tuning fro on the other night. But
- 38:21Speaker 4: though that poor poor man they got attacked by the
- 38:24Speaker 4: hen that I sent Jerry on a link the other
- 38:27Speaker 4: night about a poor man, they got attacked by a hen.
- 38:29Speaker 4: It was a fucking Brahma. And of course you know
- 38:34Speaker 4: anything Brahma, Brahma, bull brahm. There it's the.
- 38:37Speaker 3: Big ass version it's the eagle of Hens, it is.
- 38:40Speaker 4: And I went in and the poor old devil he
- 38:42Speaker 4: wasn't the best of health anyway, but whatever row they
- 38:44Speaker 4: had himself and the hen, I don't know what it
- 38:46Speaker 4: was over, but the hen clawed the fucking legs off him.
- 38:48Speaker 4: Poor man ended up having a heart attack with the
- 38:50Speaker 4: right of it. And I went those were being mooted
- 38:54Speaker 4: about getting next year, and I would. I kind of
- 38:57Speaker 4: had to put my foot down and says, look it
- 39:00Speaker 4: they give bigger rights. They're like, no, what fucking use
- 39:02Speaker 4: of my feeting? There?
- 39:03Speaker 3: Eat more than regular hens? Yeah? Do they give more eggs?
- 39:06Speaker 4: No? No, what's the selling point here exactly? So we
- 39:10Speaker 4: stuck a pin in that one. We said, look, we'll
- 39:13Speaker 4: look into serious hens. It's proper fucking hens. But I said, really,
- 39:15Speaker 4: what we need at the moment, right now, jar right
- 39:19Speaker 4: now from Santi is another animal that can pull their
- 39:23Speaker 4: fucking weight around the place. Okay, I need a mean
- 39:27Speaker 4: motherfucker one of these. I need a nasty bastard like
- 39:31Speaker 4: half an ear, fucking snaggle tooth that I need a
- 39:35Speaker 4: you know what I mean, maybe got a tattoo under
- 39:36Speaker 4: it's four. Because we live in a forest. Yes, nice cozy,
- 39:41Speaker 4: warmhouse that has never been a cozy spot here before.
- 39:44Speaker 4: But nature has lived around us for a millennia, so
- 39:48Speaker 4: we've been seeing sign every so often of a fucking mouse.
- 39:54Speaker 3: Yes, wouldn't.
- 39:55Speaker 4: I don't believe in trapping the fuckers. I don't believe
- 39:58Speaker 4: in poison them. That's for sure. Shit because I don't
- 40:00Speaker 4: need them to wander off and die somewhere and rot.
- 40:03Speaker 4: I need a killing machine.
- 40:05Speaker 3: You need them gone.
- 40:06Speaker 4: I need them gone, and I need I need this
- 40:08Speaker 4: art of yoke that will be walking across the yard,
- 40:10Speaker 4: but one hanging out of its mouth and the fag
- 40:12Speaker 4: out the other side, going Tom.
- 40:14Speaker 3: I need Tom.
- 40:16Speaker 4: I need a Tom Tom. I need that because you
- 40:18Speaker 4: got a Jerry buddy, here you go, you got Jerry's.
- 40:22Speaker 3: You need a Tom.
- 40:23Speaker 4: I need a mean, motherfucking cat.
- 40:25Speaker 3: That's what I want.
- 40:26Speaker 4: I've been saying it. I've been saying it since before
- 40:29Speaker 4: we even moved into the house. A country people have
- 40:32Speaker 4: to have a cat. And it isn't some fucking yolk
- 40:34Speaker 4: that sits inside that has its own Instagram account, fucking
- 40:39Speaker 4: just massage and its own balls. And you pull the
- 40:42Speaker 4: claws on the thing because you know what that's what
- 40:44Speaker 4: people do to cats, and you know they celebrate its birthday.
- 40:48Speaker 4: And no, no, I don't need that at all. I
- 40:52Speaker 4: need a cat that doesn't even want that. I want
- 40:54Speaker 4: the kind of cat that is happy to live in the.
- 40:56Speaker 3: Garage, says to me, Tom, you need a cat that
- 40:59Speaker 3: you don't name exactly.
- 41:02Speaker 4: You call it cat, cat, cat, much like yourself in
- 41:07Speaker 4: the sleeper story. I had two cats years ago when
- 41:10Speaker 4: I lived by myself and lived in a small, little
- 41:12Speaker 4: two bedhouse terrorist house on a building site. It was
- 41:15Speaker 4: one of the few finished houses and I got given
- 41:17Speaker 4: two cats, which I named Jack and Daniels. I thought
- 41:20Speaker 4: they were the loveliest little things. It was me. It
- 41:22Speaker 4: was me and the cats in the evening against the world,
- 41:25Speaker 4: buddy against the world, and a fucking, fucking kestrel killed
- 41:29Speaker 4: the two in the back back garden one day. I'm like, well,
- 41:33Speaker 4: I've only gotten that bit bigger. You would ejected him
- 41:36Speaker 4: out of the skylike I'll tell you.
- 41:38Speaker 3: I don't want to be sending like Tomy Lee Jones
- 41:40Speaker 3: and no Country for old men. But even in a
- 41:43Speaker 3: contest between cat and bird, the outcome is not guaranteed.
- 41:49Speaker 4: But that's that's why I need to get me hands on.
- 41:52Speaker 4: And this is I've been looking. I've been looking down
- 41:54Speaker 4: through it. A regular cat is fine, but how do
- 41:56Speaker 4: you get that jacked cat? You know, that fucking jacked
- 41:59Speaker 4: looking bastard. I used to have him when we were younger.
- 42:02Speaker 4: Like this thing used to come back every winter. He'd
- 42:04Speaker 4: begun for the summer, riding and fighting, and he'd come
- 42:08Speaker 4: back much. You know, it's like a Johnny Cash song.
- 42:10Speaker 4: This fucking thing was rolling in the fucking blood in
- 42:12Speaker 4: the mud and he would roll back in around September
- 42:15Speaker 4: into the mother's place, like missing a piece of near
- 42:18Speaker 4: the tail now is jacked in the wrong direction. But
- 42:20Speaker 4: he was a happy thing. But he got into a
- 42:22Speaker 4: fight with a badger one time, jar and a bit
- 42:25Speaker 4: down through his nose and his like bit his whole
- 42:29Speaker 4: face bone right. Mother cleaned it up, and I remember
- 42:32Speaker 4: I had just come back from America and I brought
- 42:34Speaker 4: this amazing stuff where you could buy antipiotic cream over
- 42:38Speaker 4: the counter. It's called neo spots.
- 42:41Speaker 3: Squirted that all over the cat's face.
- 42:43Speaker 4: He lived now, he lived with basically turned into the
- 42:46Speaker 4: predator because his face every time he went, and his
- 42:51Speaker 4: whole phrase, his whole face. But to say that from
- 42:56Speaker 4: then on, there wasn't a vermin. There wasn't a bird there.
- 42:59Speaker 4: I mean, nothing lived. It was against It was fucking
- 43:02Speaker 4: ground zero. Nothing lived or hung around.
- 43:05Speaker 3: When this was exactly this gun.
- 43:09Speaker 4: You felt the ground when this fucker walked by, put
- 43:12Speaker 4: a hell of a nice case. There was no name
- 43:14Speaker 4: for him. I think I think somebody called him Salem
- 43:18Speaker 4: because of Sabrina, Sabrina the teenage witch.
- 43:21Speaker 3: Okay, I just went to like the pet cemetry care.
- 43:25Speaker 4: Yeah, I know, I know, but this he put a
- 43:27Speaker 4: lot of them in the cemetery. But that's what I need.
- 43:30Speaker 4: And I'm looking down through breeds and you know, the
- 43:32Speaker 4: regular short hern. I'm sure some stage somebody would just
- 43:35Speaker 4: give me a cat, as they do in the country.
- 43:37Speaker 4: People go, you look for a cat. I wasn't, but
- 43:40Speaker 4: I'll take it, but if I could, because I'm looking
- 43:43Speaker 4: at this this one down the road right and they
- 43:45Speaker 4: haven't they haven't really put it to use. But they're
- 43:47Speaker 4: called the main Coon. Oh Jesus, Yeah, no, okay, go on,
- 43:52Speaker 4: So he's name that after the US state with Maine,
- 43:55Speaker 4: not Coon. This is so essentially here six months like
- 44:00Speaker 4: they're they're twe hundreds of years old. There's this breed like,
- 44:04Speaker 4: but what I do love is why they do have
- 44:07Speaker 4: longish hair. It's water resistant. So if it needs to
- 44:12Speaker 4: go into the fucking river after rat, it can. Now
- 44:15Speaker 4: if I could get one of them now, it will
- 44:18Speaker 4: it will apparently like this fucking thing will just doing
- 44:22Speaker 4: everything if you if you haven't done.
- 44:24Speaker 3: Right, yeah, I mean tom like this is it's a
- 44:28Speaker 3: main con cat. I know these things, and another word
- 44:31Speaker 3: from it would be a brahma cat.
- 44:33Speaker 2: I know, I know, I know, I know, I.
- 44:35Speaker 3: Don't I advise caution on this, my friend.
- 44:38Speaker 4: Well, if I can get I just don't know what
- 44:41Speaker 4: breed of cat is that big, massive headed, jacked, irish
- 44:45Speaker 4: looking fucking cat. I don't care what color it is.
- 44:47Speaker 4: I don't particularly care what it even looks like. I
- 44:50Speaker 4: just need that big fucking tick cat that will, you know,
- 44:54Speaker 4: fuck up anything but.
- 44:56Speaker 3: Your own You answered your own question a couple of
- 44:58Speaker 3: times here in this in this shatement. Now Santa is
- 45:01Speaker 3: going to have to bring you this cat. That's it,
- 45:05Speaker 3: because I'm the only person that can deliver a cat
- 45:07Speaker 3: to your specifications. Because you're not going to find and
- 45:11Speaker 3: kitten and raise it to be this cat unless I
- 45:13Speaker 3: get this mad bastard cat just lurking into your house
- 45:17Speaker 3: or a hundred to one. You got one earlier with
- 45:21Speaker 3: the Niisbourne face and the whole lot. But as you
- 45:23Speaker 3: said yourself, that cat would call it. He didn't live
- 45:25Speaker 3: at your house. He just showed up for the winter.
- 45:27Speaker 4: Yeah, he hummed out for the winter. That's where he's stationed.
- 45:29Speaker 4: We've got it.
- 45:31Speaker 3: That's what cats do. And I know you're not the
- 45:34Speaker 3: kind of person that would subject a cat to the
- 45:37Speaker 3: hard life that would drive it to be this killing machine.
- 45:40Speaker 3: It would have to arrive to your house killing machine.
- 45:44Speaker 4: Yeah, unless I get it on the protein shakes or something.
- 45:46Speaker 3: I don't know what the fuck to do.
- 45:48Speaker 4: But like anybody you know, where like.
- 45:50Speaker 3: We get a ject cat, like like jected motherfucker, Like
- 45:54Speaker 3: that's what I killer cat that also is friendly to children, and.
- 45:57Speaker 4: Go, yeah, yes exactly. So like if I can get it,
- 46:02Speaker 4: I think you're right. I think the only person for
- 46:04Speaker 4: the job, because scanning the world is Santi. He will
- 46:07Speaker 4: have to be the one to go get the job done.
- 46:09Speaker 2: I know what you need.
- 46:09Speaker 4: You need one cross with a fucking mullengar. Fucking know.
- 46:14Speaker 3: Yeah, I think we might have to leave that for Santa. Well, Tom,
- 46:18Speaker 3: if I could, if I could order a present for
- 46:19Speaker 3: somebody else, I would order you that cat. But unfortunately,
- 46:23Speaker 3: for my third and final element on the letter to Santa,
- 46:27Speaker 3: which we've already said, is going to be for somebody else.
- 46:30Speaker 3: It's a good deed for somebody else, Tom, even if
- 46:33Speaker 3: this person hasn't necessarily done a good deed for us.
- 46:36Speaker 3: But every now and then you just have to say, listen,
- 46:38Speaker 3: enough is enough. Ah. I want to give this guy
- 46:41Speaker 3: a nice Christmas. I want to I want to see
- 46:44Speaker 3: him right. I want to sort him out. You got
- 46:46Speaker 3: to do right by your fellow man. For my third
- 46:49Speaker 3: item on my list of Santi, I would like Brian
- 46:53Speaker 3: McFadden to get back with Westlife, if only, Tom, if
- 47:02Speaker 3: only for one night, if only for one night, Enough
- 47:08Speaker 3: is enough, Tom, The feud is over. Okay. Brian McFadden
- 47:13Speaker 3: has been out of West Life for over twenty years,
- 47:17Speaker 3: and really and truly, from my reading of the scenario,
- 47:22Speaker 3: nobody misses him. Yeah, the band, not the fans, not anybody.
- 47:30Speaker 3: In actual fact, I don't know that Brian McFadden's wholeheartedly
- 47:33Speaker 3: welcome in this country. And I was no big West
- 47:36Speaker 3: Life fan. I was no big Brian McFadden fan like
- 47:39Speaker 3: buying large, couldn't give a fuck. But it's Christmas, Baby,
- 47:42Speaker 3: Christmas for It'sney doing like a West Boys tour or
- 47:46Speaker 3: something with he is he is Sethan Shan duff here,
- 47:49Speaker 3: or it's a chain of no Keith Duffy, Keith Duffy,
- 47:53Speaker 3: Keith Duffy in himself like fair Plade shut over just
- 47:58Speaker 3: like a here you see, or in a world where
- 48:02Speaker 3: never isn't as long a time as it used to be.
- 48:06Speaker 3: In particular, I'm you know, in the wrestling world there
- 48:08Speaker 3: was a lot of things that were sworn off and
- 48:10Speaker 3: people would never work for anybody ever again. And all
- 48:13Speaker 3: of a sudden, ten fifteen years later, seem Punk's back
- 48:15Speaker 3: in the WWE, after saying that he'd never go back
- 48:18Speaker 3: next to near the place was back.
- 48:21Speaker 4: We thought, Tony, have you seen Tony Martimer from me
- 48:23Speaker 4: seventeen of late? No, have a Google of that?
- 48:27Speaker 3: Oh cool? You know, Christmas is the time of miracles.
- 48:30Speaker 3: THEO and Brian McFadden left Westlife by his own hand
- 48:36Speaker 3: about twenty odd years ago to pursue a solo career, and.
- 48:41Speaker 4: One or two wives later, it hasn't really panned out.
- 48:44Speaker 3: All I can all I can tell you we went
- 48:46Speaker 3: to pursue a solo career. His downfall was he never
- 48:51Speaker 3: specified that he wanted to pursue a successful one.
- 48:56Speaker 4: You see, this is the problem you need to read.
- 48:59Speaker 3: You need to read the fine Brent. Yeah, walked out
- 49:01Speaker 3: of the band and by all the kinds the members
- 49:04Speaker 3: of the band that don't forgive them. And it's not like,
- 49:05Speaker 3: oh geez, you know, bygones be by guns. We've lived
- 49:08Speaker 3: through this time. We've seen Robbie Williams reunite, would take
- 49:10Speaker 3: that like you know, we've seen the Eagles get back together,
- 49:13Speaker 3: get back together, like Oasis are back together just this
- 49:16Speaker 3: year and coming into twenty twenty six, Westlife are playing
- 49:22Speaker 3: at the time of recording turteen shows in the Point
- 49:27Speaker 3: in the Three Arena, a turteen night residency and it
- 49:31Speaker 3: is sold the fuck out, every single one of them.
- 49:33Speaker 4: Is it?
- 49:34Speaker 3: So all? I'm saying, let bygones be by guns put
- 49:38Speaker 3: it all aside. Look at poor little Brian McFadden out
- 49:41Speaker 3: in the cold loading the van for another Boys Life
- 49:45Speaker 3: twenty fourth birthday party appearance. Yeah, you know, it's like, sorry,
- 49:53Speaker 3: we played smaller gigs time. I know, you and me
- 49:55Speaker 3: both but at the same time, Aha.
- 49:57Speaker 4: It would it would it would complete this I do
- 49:59Speaker 4: like a please it circle, you know that kind of way.
- 50:01Speaker 2: It would.
- 50:02Speaker 4: It would come around. Everybody loves an nostalgia story. And
- 50:04Speaker 4: I mean if he came on stage, I don't think
- 50:06Speaker 4: anybody would be Yeah, no, I don't you know what it.
- 50:09Speaker 3: Would be, Tom, You know would be everybody would sit
- 50:11Speaker 3: on their hands for it in the crowd and to
- 50:13Speaker 3: be like, go on, sing it, sing your song, go on,
- 50:18Speaker 3: come out for Uptown Girl, and then just wave off
- 50:20Speaker 3: and go by by about your business. I'm not saying
- 50:23Speaker 3: he has to be there all night. I'm not saying
- 50:24Speaker 3: that he has to be there for all thirteen nights alls.
- 50:26Speaker 3: I'm saying, is the decent human being in me thinks
- 50:30Speaker 3: that we can bring Brian McFadden out for one night,
- 50:34Speaker 3: whatever night he has off in in Boujium, whatever night,
- 50:39Speaker 3: We'll give him off.
- 50:39Speaker 4: Right, you're a bad club.
- 50:44Speaker 3: You can get the Lewis from Abbey Street down to
- 50:47Speaker 3: the pint, jump on for Uptown Girl, right.
- 50:52Speaker 4: And and and ba and faces before the night is done, and.
- 50:56Speaker 3: Get back up and finish his shift, all right, I
- 50:59Speaker 3: think for Chris we can do that, surely, don't you
- 51:01Speaker 3: wouldn't you wouldn't you say that we as a nation,
- 51:04Speaker 3: if we cannot forgive Brian McFadden, where are we going
- 51:07Speaker 3: in this life? I think you're a hundred percent right.
- 51:09Speaker 4: There's no reason that, do you know what? And like
- 51:12Speaker 4: I said, it'd be a great talking point for now,
- 51:15Speaker 4: not that the lads need to do. And they've sold
- 51:17Speaker 4: out the fucking thing thirteen times, so they're doing all right.
- 51:19Speaker 4: But I think I think it would put serious eyeballs
- 51:24Speaker 4: on it from the outside looking in, And I think,
- 51:27Speaker 4: you know what, give the guy a little bit of
- 51:29Speaker 4: juice if they haven't. He seems to be holding himself
- 51:32Speaker 4: in still likable stage. When he seems to make appearances
- 51:36Speaker 4: on thing, it's not like, oh, you know, jitted star
- 51:39Speaker 4: of it's like PRIMEV. Yeah.
- 51:44Speaker 3: And I remember because he was about my age when
- 51:46Speaker 3: I was his age, if that statement makes any sense,
- 51:48Speaker 3: But he was like, you know, young lad twenties and
- 51:50Speaker 3: he was a bollocks. Ah, you probably would.
- 51:53Speaker 2: Be your sage.
- 51:54Speaker 3: You would be yourself drinking one thing and another, like
- 51:56Speaker 3: you know, you leave him to it, and yes, there
- 52:01Speaker 3: you go. I you know, I gotta get Brian McFadden
- 52:06Speaker 3: on stage for Christmas. I think that I think that's
- 52:08Speaker 3: a very nice thing to thank you.
- 52:10Speaker 4: I be if nothing else, I think sent you will
- 52:13Speaker 4: just look fondly on it, even if you won't put
- 52:14Speaker 4: it off for you and go.
- 52:15Speaker 3: You know what, This kid's all right, kids, that kids
- 52:17Speaker 3: all right. I'm not going to get McFadden out for
- 52:19Speaker 3: up there and girl, but I'll give McBride a sleeper.
- 52:21Speaker 3: That's all I'm looking for, Tom. Okay.
- 52:23Speaker 4: My one is is it's for many people, one person
- 52:29Speaker 4: in particular, but really to celebrate one person in particular.
- 52:32Speaker 4: But I think this particular thing could be and it
- 52:35Speaker 4: most definitely is for you. It's a little for me
- 52:38Speaker 4: also as well. But because I'm suggesting it for somebody else,
- 52:42Speaker 4: I think a lot of people would be pleased by
- 52:44Speaker 4: this thing. No, none more than you, I would imagine.
- 52:50Speaker 4: That's why I am suggesting. And I can't believe that
- 52:52Speaker 4: this hasn't been a thing already. I am suggesting, and
- 52:56Speaker 4: what I would love for to happen maybe around sometime
- 53:02Speaker 4: later next year, and I would say maybe around harvest
- 53:04Speaker 4: time to close the harvest next year, set the harvest time, Tom,
- 53:09Speaker 4: I know, but let's say I get to your tickets right.
- 53:12Speaker 3: For well, just even the way you say harvest time,
- 53:15Speaker 3: like everybody knows, oh yeah, harvest time. I know it
- 53:17Speaker 3: to the day. Okay, all right, so we've said, city listeners,
- 53:20Speaker 3: I don't know what fucking harvest time is.
- 53:22Speaker 4: What harvest time is mid to late September. There you go, Okay,
- 53:26Speaker 4: all right, when the weather is still nice. It's still
- 53:28Speaker 4: nice out, and I am putting forward to the scenty
- 53:33Speaker 4: to put this in order to create the fred dignifest.
- 53:38Speaker 3: Oh excellent, call my man.
- 53:44Speaker 4: Headlined by the Wurseels singing, Oh you've got a brand
- 53:47Speaker 4: new coumpan arrist and all the rest of it. Butt
- 53:49Speaker 4: throughout the whole thing, there'll be everything that's celebratory. Things
- 53:52Speaker 4: that we can do, like you know, driving dogs into
- 53:55Speaker 4: a fucking into into a bit of breakwork, trying to
- 53:58Speaker 4: screale a ladder to a certain height and not. You know,
- 54:03Speaker 4: I think celebrated towards the end. I haven't thought about
- 54:06Speaker 4: it throughout all the activities, but I think there could
- 54:08Speaker 4: be loads here because.
- 54:09Speaker 3: You're let's let's dig into a dimmerpalooza. We've got like
- 54:12Speaker 3: a friend.
- 54:14Speaker 4: Freadfest.
- 54:15Speaker 3: Yeah, bread Fest. I mean, like, does this is this
- 54:19Speaker 3: in a straight away? It strikes me as being like
- 54:23Speaker 3: not unlike minorti steams rushing festival.
- 54:26Speaker 4: Now you're talking. Now you're talking where you can throw
- 54:28Speaker 4: your hand at trashing a bit of a bit of
- 54:30Speaker 4: a bit of fucking wheat and whatnot, maybe even just
- 54:35Speaker 4: trades the old style trade things like a bit attaching
- 54:38Speaker 4: and whatnot, but celebrated, I think, culminated the end, much
- 54:41Speaker 4: like the alternate or the Burning Man Festival in America,
- 54:46Speaker 4: which fuck that anyway, it's the festival here in Ireland
- 54:52Speaker 4: where I think the closing ceremony should be the dropping of.
- 54:55Speaker 3: A stack oh damn.
- 54:59Speaker 4: Like that. And and then one lucky youngster, plucky youngster.
- 55:02Speaker 4: And I'm putting forward with the name Jerry McBride for
- 55:05Speaker 4: this one because he's a he's a good kid. Where
- 55:08Speaker 4: he gets to blow the hooter, yeah, just before it
- 55:13Speaker 4: comes down, and then you get to say the final
- 55:16Speaker 4: phrase in the.
- 55:22Speaker 3: You know that's a that's an excellent that's an excellent.
- 55:27Speaker 2: Degree.
- 55:27Speaker 3: I mean, I don't have something like this to begin with.
- 55:29Speaker 3: His foking beyond me.
- 55:31Speaker 4: They all they have is a tribute, a Facebook tribute
- 55:35Speaker 4: page and they many of them have listened to our
- 55:38Speaker 4: our our deep dive into Fred or two parts or
- 55:40Speaker 4: deep dive into Fred Dibner, and and.
- 55:43Speaker 3: We dined them for it.
- 55:44Speaker 4: But there is not a fred Fest and like there
- 55:47Speaker 4: isn't a Dipna Palosa like I think there would be
- 55:50Speaker 4: the at the very least keep everybody interested. That would
- 55:53Speaker 4: be like the Fred Dibner, you know, Steve the keep.
- 55:56Speaker 3: The memory like you know, can you imagine Tom? Can
- 56:00Speaker 3: you imagine the air lads that will go to that?
- 56:02Speaker 4: Oh I could. I'd be in I can, I'd be
- 56:04Speaker 4: so excited put with both of our little flat caps on.
- 56:08Speaker 3: Oh lord, but you'd have to have you'd have to
- 56:11Speaker 3: have rules. Now, you'd have to have strict rules, all right,
- 56:14Speaker 3: Like even if you have the marshals going around the
- 56:17Speaker 3: place and go like, what's that you're smoking?
- 56:19Speaker 4: There? A filtered cigarette? Now your tongue. No, all the
- 56:24Speaker 4: marshals have to be from Northern England.
- 56:26Speaker 3: No, pull the filter off that and smoke straight down,
- 56:29Speaker 3: get the tar into your lungs.
- 56:31Speaker 4: And pints are only served in like tankards, you know
- 56:35Speaker 4: what I mean, with a handle on it. None of
- 56:36Speaker 4: this fucking plastic cups.
- 56:38Speaker 3: Just like a real warm.
- 56:43Speaker 4: Out of the pub, like you know what I mean. Yeah,
- 56:45Speaker 4: there's so many things that even listen. You could absolutely
- 56:49Speaker 4: adopt watching. You could adopt a thrashing festival and name
- 56:53Speaker 4: it the Fred Dimna fucking steam Fest.
- 56:55Speaker 3: Because one can only assume that. One can only assume
- 56:58Speaker 3: more hell, that was fancy there you go. One can
- 57:02Speaker 3: only assume that there are still steam rallies.
- 57:05Speaker 4: In the UK and everywhere you go, up to the
- 57:08Speaker 4: one in ny Scary we used to go every year.
- 57:10Speaker 3: It's class.
- 57:11Speaker 4: It's class in all the lads chuk chuk chuk chuk
- 57:14Speaker 4: chuk chu with all their gear. It's fucking brilliant to
- 57:16Speaker 4: see huge pieces of machinery just banging and clattering, you know, inefficiently.
- 57:22Speaker 3: All the things you've got. Steam engines still are a
- 57:25Speaker 3: thing that exists. You've got men in their sixties living
- 57:29Speaker 3: with sixty years of undiagnosed autism that just fucking live
- 57:32Speaker 3: and breathe engines.
- 57:35Speaker 4: I mean, we never get We never circled around to
- 57:37Speaker 4: that point on for it without He definitely had the
- 57:41Speaker 4: touch of theism we both have. There's like it is,
- 57:45Speaker 4: it has skilled. I would say he was given me.
- 57:47Speaker 4: It hit me in my nose. I think broken.
- 57:51Speaker 3: It's it's it's a broad George, Tom, I'll tell you
- 57:54Speaker 3: that much, so much, you know, with a good a
- 57:57Speaker 3: good steeple on it.
- 57:58Speaker 4: As a result of Fred Dimner probably fixing the there,
- 58:00Speaker 4: you buddy can have.
- 58:03Speaker 3: Stone caravan, you know what I mean.
- 58:04Speaker 4: You can have everything. You can have lead work being done.
- 58:07Speaker 3: You could do fred suns showing up with the actual engines. Engines.
- 58:13Speaker 4: Yeah, I wonder there's the wife still on the scene?
- 58:15Speaker 3: Which one? Tom? Oh? Yeah, I do you know what
- 58:21Speaker 3: I again? Friend Fred Fred Fred got around, God love him.
- 58:25Speaker 4: Yeah. Yes, there's a lot of fread to go around, a.
- 58:28Speaker 3: Lot of friend to go around. Tom. You know, that's
- 58:32Speaker 3: an amazing thing. And I think it would be magical.
- 58:36Speaker 3: And who better to bring the magic to life than
- 58:39Speaker 3: Santa himself. And he just needs to do it once
- 58:43Speaker 3: he launches fred Frest one time. Ah and and and
- 58:48Speaker 3: and and and the community will take it. Now, what's
- 58:50Speaker 3: to stop fred Fest from becoming a bit of a
- 58:52Speaker 3: firefest situation? How do you mean? What if the when
- 58:57Speaker 3: straight away? What if the chimney falls on someone?
- 59:00Speaker 2: Oh yeah yeah all.
- 59:01Speaker 4: Firefistay Yeah yeah no, no, no, no, we'll we will
- 59:05Speaker 4: base this in Bolton.
- 59:07Speaker 3: Do you know what I mean? You won't get nobody
- 59:09Speaker 3: will land expecting airs and graces.
- 59:11Speaker 4: There will be absolutely none of that carry on. And
- 59:14Speaker 4: I mean if you get an influencer turning up to
- 59:16Speaker 4: steam thrashing, their phone will be immediately thrown into one
- 59:19Speaker 4: of those for cons thrashers.
- 59:20Speaker 3: Not all.
- 59:22Speaker 4: I don't think there's any fear.
- 59:23Speaker 3: We don't have to worry about that all that much.
- 59:26Speaker 4: I think. But much as you said, like if Santy
- 59:28Speaker 4: can just sort us out with the one, much like
- 59:30Speaker 4: the crank and many of these machines, you get that
- 59:32Speaker 4: thing going and all you need to do is keep
- 59:35Speaker 4: it topped up. Sandy, we just needed one good crank
- 59:38Speaker 4: and we would start Freadfest. And I think there you go.
- 59:41Speaker 4: We like we be there with bells on. I mean,
- 59:43Speaker 4: we joke about it, but I swear they got it.
- 59:45Speaker 4: Fred Fast turned up. I'm We're gone. We're gone.
- 59:50Speaker 3: Well, Tom, I'll tell you there's one thing that the
