Speaker 3: because apparently it's a very culchy thing to do. But
1:05
Speaker 3: speaking for my people, I gotta tell you one thing, Tom,
1:08
Speaker 3: a shirt like that, you could wear it anything, you
1:11
Speaker 3: could wear to a christenin. You could wear it to
1:13
Speaker 3: a funeral, you could wear to the afters of a wedding.
1:15
Speaker 3: The job interview, job interview, and I'm.
1:19
Speaker 2: I've always worn check shirts and I think they're back in.
1:23
Speaker 2: Do you know what it is, though, is if you
1:25
Speaker 2: wear it fitted that it actually is your size? Uh
1:29
Speaker 2: knob you got you gotta wear one that's way too big.
1:32
Speaker 2: And ironically, you know you're wearing a pair of I
1:35
Speaker 2: don't know, fishermen's trousers and like a builder's car hard hat.
1:38
Speaker 2: And now your whole gear probably costs eight hundred quid.
1:41
Speaker 2: Would you kind of look like you're rough it a bit?
1:43
Speaker 2: You probably own a transit as well, just for the
1:45
Speaker 2: sake of it.
1:45
Speaker 3: Like, I gotta tell you, any any check shirt I
1:48
Speaker 3: wear tom is a wee bit big on me because
1:50
Speaker 3: I bought them, you know, back when I was carrying
1:52
Speaker 3: a bit of timber, and then I sized down over
1:54
Speaker 3: the last couple of years, and these three year or
1:56
Speaker 3: four year old shirts now I've never replaced them, so
1:58
Speaker 3: they are hanging off with me a.
1:59
Speaker 2: But literally, these shirts are made for carrying timber jair. Literally,
2:03
Speaker 2: I'm very excited. I mean, I'm in good form, a
2:06
Speaker 2: couple of cracking gigs over the weekend, all in the
2:08
Speaker 2: one place, and it's what makes it beautiful year sixteen
2:11
Speaker 2: minutes up the road, totally boat shows, sixteen minutes up
2:14
Speaker 2: the road in Evil oh oh, and thankfully this weekend,
2:18
Speaker 2: I'm a tour show and it's only forty five minutes
2:20
Speaker 2: down the road to the beautiful Cork. While I love
2:23
Speaker 2: gigging a cork, I love eight and in Cork immediately afterwards,
2:25
Speaker 2: I'm a man for chips chair and they do chips farewell.
2:28
Speaker 2: That's the That's the overriding thing after the gig is
2:31
Speaker 2: what's on my mind. That's don't tell you where my
2:33
Speaker 2: head is at these days where I get the best chips?
2:36
Speaker 3: Yeah, thank you very much everybody. Good night. And in
2:38
Speaker 3: the back of your mind you're thinking, now we're still open.
2:40
Speaker 2: The amount of places. The other people that will come
2:42
Speaker 2: up to me now because they know that's exactly what
2:44
Speaker 2: I'm doing, they go, oh, you know who does good chips.
2:46
Speaker 2: What I will say is avoid NS if you're looking
2:48
Speaker 2: for chips, because two different places I went to they
2:51
Speaker 2: shouldon't be arrested for the kind of chips they're selling.
2:52
Speaker 2: Over the counter, just saying.
2:54
Speaker 3: Just saying, all right, Nis, you're on notice here as well.
2:57
Speaker 3: You know, we're not going to derail the podcast more
2:59
Speaker 3: than we usually do. But I got to give you
3:00
Speaker 3: one word of advice. Tom. If you're in any small
3:03
Speaker 3: town chip shop around the country and they have a
3:06
Speaker 3: Knight on the menu, gets named after the man's name
3:10
Speaker 3: in the front of the shop. Get that. If you're
3:12
Speaker 3: in Michael's chip Shop and the Michael Berger in there,
3:15
Speaker 3: you get the Michael Berger.
3:16
Speaker 2: That's a great that's a great head zone. That's a
3:20
Speaker 2: great head zone. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah.
3:22
Speaker 3: Shout out to the alley bowls out of silling Fries,
3:24
Speaker 3: those that know.
3:25
Speaker 2: No.
3:26
Speaker 3: But I'm gonna tell you one thing, Tom, if you
3:27
Speaker 3: are going to get chips around this country, don't make
3:30
Speaker 3: a pig out of yourself. Brother, Don't make a pig
3:32
Speaker 3: out of yourself. Don't make a pig out of yourself
3:34
Speaker 3: and have cheesy, fucking segues into the first segment of
3:38
Speaker 3: The Tom and Jerry Show, where every week we take
3:40
Speaker 3: a look at the scuttle but the ruckus, the news,
3:43
Speaker 3: the weekly, what have you. This is a very complicated
3:46
Speaker 3: case mod you know, a lot of out, a lot
3:48
Speaker 3: of what have you, and a lot of strands to
3:51
Speaker 3: keep in my head.
3:52
Speaker 2: Man, what I did with the pig there, Tom, I
3:54
Speaker 2: was fucking horrendously lovely.
3:57
Speaker 3: That's what that was. Now, just let on my grave stone.
4:00
Speaker 2: Horrendously lovely. That's Jerry's. Yeah, that's that's his epitheph. I
4:05
Speaker 2: got excited when I saw this one. Now I know
4:07
Speaker 2: it's it's no, it's from a year or two back,
4:10
Speaker 2: but it's I get excited when I hear. I don't
4:13
Speaker 2: know why I still love pigs. I have a love
4:16
Speaker 2: hate relationship. I worked him for years.
4:19
Speaker 3: That's a generous description of it, Tom.
4:21
Speaker 2: Several of them tried to kill me, but I still
4:25
Speaker 2: like the old bastards. And I think about wild Boar.
4:29
Speaker 2: I've always been interested in him. And a story popped up,
4:31
Speaker 2: as it tends to do when it's got wild animal
4:33
Speaker 2: related with human interaction going on, And this one popped up,
4:38
Speaker 2: and it was a man from South Korea adopts a
4:41
Speaker 2: wild boar, a wild boarder. These yolks making note of that, folks, Yeah,
4:47
Speaker 2: and he adopts him to go on adventures around the
4:50
Speaker 2: city together, like I you know, I've heard in these
4:56
Speaker 2: largely populated countries like you know, India and and in China,
5:01
Speaker 2: suver there. You know they'll pay somebody just to talk
5:04
Speaker 2: to them. You know, I did to defeat loneliness. I
5:07
Speaker 2: like the way this fellow went about his business. He
5:10
Speaker 2: originally he I suppose he adopted him, but he kind
5:15
Speaker 2: of in one way. He he he made an enthusiastic
5:20
Speaker 2: offer for him to come back, but the plan was
5:21
Speaker 2: to actually eat him. That was the original plan.
5:25
Speaker 3: This is inside Korea. A man you say adopted, You've
5:29
Speaker 3: been very good time. You say that you worked the
5:30
Speaker 3: pigs in this man adopted a bore like there's you've
5:34
Speaker 3: been very generous to yourself.
5:35
Speaker 2: He tracked, he trapped a trapped.
5:38
Speaker 3: And it's very like if you've seen the episode of
5:41
Speaker 3: The Simpsons where Homer by his lobster as a baby
5:44
Speaker 3: with the intention to fatten it up to eat it,
5:46
Speaker 3: but it ends up Pinchy friends with it. Pinchy, wasn't
5:49
Speaker 3: it the lobster? This is Pinchy the boar. But there's
5:53
Speaker 3: lobsters and there's bares. Folks, we're not talking about pigs.
5:56
Speaker 3: We're not talking about if you remember, if you if
6:00
Speaker 3: you remember when George Clooney came through forth. He had
6:02
Speaker 3: a pet pig that was Clooney's always been a kirky battard.
6:06
Speaker 3: He had a pet pig in the house and it
6:07
Speaker 3: was like a little pot belly pig.
6:09
Speaker 2: Yeah Cooney, Cooney, Yeah yeah, yeah yeah.
6:12
Speaker 3: And this ain't that, ladies and gentlemen, this is a
6:16
Speaker 3: wild boar.
6:18
Speaker 2: If you think of pum tim you know this is
6:23
Speaker 2: this is what you're dealing with. Harry Long snouted rooting
6:26
Speaker 2: through roots exact.
6:28
Speaker 3: I don't know what it is. But they've got like
6:31
Speaker 3: jaw horns.
6:32
Speaker 2: There's a there's a name for them, things like that.
6:34
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah.
6:35
Speaker 3: No jewels that hang down.
6:36
Speaker 2: Yeah. I was told by a vet what they are.
6:39
Speaker 2: And I'm not going googling it. But this was a
6:40
Speaker 2: few years ago. This bloke, he was seventy years of age.
6:44
Speaker 2: Fair going in and I'm gonna nail this name of
6:47
Speaker 2: the city. By the ways. Way, I let you take
6:48
Speaker 2: this somebody, Okay, we live with that. They rose on
6:58
Speaker 2: there that you got a bore for the purpose of cooking.
7:02
Speaker 3: He trapped the boar.
7:03
Speaker 2: But he could have on like what he what he what?
7:06
Speaker 2: He clocked on early doors because he was gonna fatten
7:09
Speaker 2: this lad was that the boar could understand him. And
7:12
Speaker 2: the boar seems smarter than any dog gave her had,
7:14
Speaker 2: so immediately struck up a magnificent bond himself and this pig. Right,
7:21
Speaker 2: so meal bound he was not after that, so himself,
7:26
Speaker 2: Marly and me with a wild boar. Yeah, himself, and
7:30
Speaker 2: he named the boar and again gonna nail this uh
7:35
Speaker 2: cuck louku cuckuluk cuckuluky. But he take him out, he'd
7:41
Speaker 2: take him out for a walk, like he harnessed on him.
7:43
Speaker 2: He'd take him out for a walk and off away
7:45
Speaker 2: down the town with him. Yeah, but he used to
7:48
Speaker 2: like he'd feed him rice cakes as well, like back
7:50
Speaker 2: and forth, these two. But he just endeared everybody that's
7:54
Speaker 2: on the pig. You see, pigs are cute out right
7:56
Speaker 2: pigs will they're opportunists, right, so they're not gonna go
8:00
Speaker 2: bust in your bins open or biting the leg off you.
8:02
Speaker 2: If after a few days they realize hold on this,
8:06
Speaker 2: that's going to keep on throwing rice cakes at me
8:08
Speaker 2: if I stay, I am a good side.
8:11
Speaker 3: I have always been told that pigs are incredibly smart.
8:16
Speaker 2: They apparently well they are. They're phenomenally smart, like we've
8:20
Speaker 2: had them, and they're they just will out think any dog,
8:23
Speaker 2: any the animal I've ever had, Like the goats I have,
8:26
Speaker 2: I think or tick oh them.
8:29
Speaker 3: But the stories I've heard of your goats, no disrespect
8:31
Speaker 3: to your goats. But they said take a pig.
8:33
Speaker 2: Ship and they they.
8:35
Speaker 3: Don't have a survival instinct that they that I know.
8:37
Speaker 2: Of, Pigs are the only animals that will like the agree.
8:41
Speaker 2: Animals will just say that, will pick one spot in
8:45
Speaker 2: the field. H Do you know what I mean? They're
8:48
Speaker 2: not dropping pops out over the place like a horse
8:51
Speaker 2: or a fucking you know, every other beast you'll ever own.
8:54
Speaker 2: They just use one corner and go No, I'm not
8:56
Speaker 2: a fucking piece. I'm not a piece of that. I
8:59
Speaker 2: ain't gonna walking on a my shit all day, thanks
9:01
Speaker 2: very much. So they do command a bit of respect,
9:04
Speaker 2: right these lads. This fellow has worked out even how
9:07
Speaker 2: to pop the sliding door window.
9:10
Speaker 3: He knows the window over him back when he's when
9:12
Speaker 3: he wants to squeal in and get rice cakes. Now
9:15
Speaker 3: you keep saying pig, Tom, and I'm joining every now
9:17
Speaker 3: and then when we say pig. This is a bore. Okay,
9:20
Speaker 3: So you know boor is the pig as dog is
9:23
Speaker 3: the wolf. You know what I'm saying, Well, yeah, because
9:27
Speaker 3: here's because I cannot stress, and I know a lot
9:29
Speaker 3: of city dwellers like yeah, you know, pigs wouldn't be
9:31
Speaker 3: overly common up airyway. Most were mostly cattle farms and
9:34
Speaker 3: things like this. So even in the country, pigs wouldn't
9:37
Speaker 3: be wildly common. Well, you wouldn't see them because they
9:41
Speaker 3: see them buyers and whatnot. What I'm saying is there's
9:45
Speaker 3: a lot of people listening to this podcast that have
9:46
Speaker 3: probably never seen an in real life pig, but they
9:49
Speaker 3: probably have the gist of how big it may be.
9:52
Speaker 3: I gotta tell you, Tom, this wild board that we're
9:55
Speaker 3: being led around South Korea is not that this is
9:58
Speaker 3: a three hundred pan animal. This is a twenty one
10:01
Speaker 3: pound animal. This old people that has this wild boar
10:05
Speaker 3: in psid Korea is riding this animal around like a horse.
10:08
Speaker 2: I'll tell you now, Jar, I don't know what which
10:10
Speaker 2: story you picked up on, because this fell I got
10:12
Speaker 2: to six hundred and fifty pounds, six.
10:14
Speaker 3: Hundred and fifty pounds big. It's a forty stone animal.
10:16
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that is a that's a good that's a
10:19
Speaker 2: good healthy size. That could be a like you get
10:22
Speaker 2: the male boards, jure. Now she's she's he or she
10:27
Speaker 2: is six foot long. But you can get a male
10:30
Speaker 2: board that could be wandering around the Black Forest in
10:32
Speaker 2: Germany and he might be six foot high as well
10:35
Speaker 2: as maybe ten foot.
10:37
Speaker 3: This is like that, you know, This is like when
10:38
Speaker 3: I and I'm so sorry, everybody got my pounds and
10:40
Speaker 3: Mikilo's mixed up. I said a three three hundred pound bore.
10:43
Speaker 3: He's three hundred kilos. Yeah sure, Jesus Christ, Yeah, yeah, yeah.
10:47
Speaker 3: If that thing wants I've seen and they're all neck.
10:50
Speaker 3: If they want to knock your door down, like him
10:53
Speaker 3: sliding that window back, is him being fair polighter?
10:56
Speaker 2: Oh, I'll tell you one thing. If he wants in,
10:58
Speaker 2: he's coming in and you're not stopping him. No, they're
11:01
Speaker 2: the power of these things have the power of a bear,
11:03
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. They're coming in if you
11:05
Speaker 2: If they want in.
11:06
Speaker 3: They've got like they've got all the traits of Marshall
11:10
Speaker 3: Brave Star. They've got strength of a bear, speed of
11:13
Speaker 3: a eyes of a hawk, and years of a with
11:17
Speaker 3: the other thing was that he had years of a
11:19
Speaker 3: wolf I don't know.
11:20
Speaker 2: And the manners the manners of a if they needed
11:23
Speaker 2: to bed the manners of whatever type animal is fucking mannerly.
11:26
Speaker 2: They are ludicrously fucking drunk strong. They can knock anything,
11:32
Speaker 2: they can fuck up anything. But this guy walking down
11:34
Speaker 2: the path with him, it just goes to show that
11:37
Speaker 2: if you do treat him right early. Doors because this
11:39
Speaker 2: is a trapped board that was destined for the dinner plate,
11:42
Speaker 2: like for the chip chop, And I mean that's a
11:45
Speaker 2: lot of pig this guy was buying. But he, you know,
11:48
Speaker 2: for to turn around, he did adapt the home and everything,
11:50
Speaker 2: Like he to widen doors, he had to push like
11:53
Speaker 2: a different style table, the whole everything had to change
11:55
Speaker 2: inside the house because they were letting this yoking around. Kookie.
11:58
Speaker 2: LOOKI was on his way in the whole time.
12:00
Speaker 3: Like with respect, co cooler, you're an outside animal. You're
12:04
Speaker 3: not coming into the house, you know. I will say,
12:08
Speaker 3: it's a hell of a security measure to have about
12:10
Speaker 3: a house, Tom, Like we all know the benefit of
12:12
Speaker 3: having a dog in the house, even though we've got
12:13
Speaker 3: little yip yip dogs between us. If I'm robing houses
12:18
Speaker 3: and I have my choice between Rob and the house
12:19
Speaker 3: that has the dog or the house that has the
12:22
Speaker 3: Andre the giant of pigs.
12:24
Speaker 2: I would urge anybody, Jerry, if you can, if you
12:27
Speaker 2: can find it for the soldiers to put it up,
12:29
Speaker 2: I would urge anybody to have a look at this lead.
12:31
Speaker 2: It's a proper outlet up on the back of then
12:34
Speaker 2: oh yeah, Like at a glance, you go, is that
12:37
Speaker 2: a fucking rhinoceros? Like at a glance, you go, what
12:40
Speaker 2: in the name of it?
12:41
Speaker 3: Because you know who he looks like. He looks like
12:43
Speaker 3: the South Korean version of mongo and blazing saddles riding
12:46
Speaker 3: the ox into town. Do you know you can't park
12:50
Speaker 3: that thing here?
12:57
Speaker 2: But there's nothing like it's we talked about this in
13:01
Speaker 2: the past. When you see a thing in your short
13:02
Speaker 2: something else, what would you what's your first archer? If
13:07
Speaker 2: our fucking vincent fucking park here lands around, tips around
13:12
Speaker 2: the corner on the back of a three hundred kilo
13:15
Speaker 2: fucking bore, Like, what's your first in your mind? Never
13:18
Speaker 2: heard of it? Your holiday and a fucking career for
13:21
Speaker 2: the for the week, and this lad tips around the
13:23
Speaker 2: corner like no cops were pulling them, Like this is
13:27
Speaker 2: the liberty I mean, it would seem South Korea is
13:30
Speaker 2: a lot more liberal than or Korea. That goes without saying,
13:33
Speaker 2: but this is fair liberal.
13:36
Speaker 3: Here. If I'm rocking around South Korea for any reason
13:38
Speaker 3: in my life, and I round the corner and there's
13:40
Speaker 3: a three hundred kilo boar coming up for me, I'm
13:44
Speaker 3: making for the de militarized own, buddy, I'm fucking I'm
13:47
Speaker 3: going for the border.
13:49
Speaker 2: If Grandad is sitting up in the back of him, yeah,
13:51
Speaker 2: like having a great old time, good luck, good luck.
13:54
Speaker 2: I suppose you're just not going to take your fing
13:57
Speaker 2: chances with it.
13:59
Speaker 3: Gee, there you go, there you go. Well, look at Cooley,
14:03
Speaker 3: we love you, Like I say every now and then,
14:05
Speaker 3: viral stories come around to the Tom and Jerry Show,
14:07
Speaker 3: and when we investigate them, they're a little bit older
14:08
Speaker 3: than we thought would. But this, for whatever reason, flared
14:11
Speaker 3: up again about two weeks ago as being viral. So
14:13
Speaker 3: you know what we say on the Tom and Jerry Show.
14:15
Speaker 3: It's news to us ladies and gentlemen.
14:18
Speaker 2: It's true, but it's it's one of us ones. It's
14:21
Speaker 2: worth saying.
14:22
Speaker 3: So there it is, folks, just a good old boy
14:24
Speaker 3: and his boar, never meaning no harm rocking around, said
14:27
Speaker 3: Korea like a modern day John Wynne fucking put it. Anyway,
14:33
Speaker 3: enough about those lads, folks, we're going to rock and
14:35
Speaker 3: roll into the second segment of the show because every
14:37
Speaker 3: now and then, and you know where man co Cooley there,
14:40
Speaker 3: he could have made it into the second segment of
14:41
Speaker 3: the show, but for a chance encounter of mine at
14:44
Speaker 3: the week, we'll get skid into with folks. Let's talk
14:46
Speaker 3: about this lady.

Speaker 3: laid dozens upon dozens of dozens of sleepy lorry drivers. Tom. Yeah,
15:12
Speaker 3: I sent Tom a message during the week there for
15:15
Speaker 3: this lad. I could have phrased it better when I said, Tom,
15:19
Speaker 3: I was hanging around Apple Green at night and I
15:22
Speaker 3: couldn't work whatever way you wrote.
15:23
Speaker 2: It, whatever way he wrote it, I should try and
15:27
Speaker 2: find it because.
15:28
Speaker 3: We've hanging around a lay by.
15:29
Speaker 2: He made it, Yeah, you made it sound like you
15:31
Speaker 2: were in a layby, like with a bunch of doggers
15:33
Speaker 2: or something. I was like, what's he doing? What and
15:35
Speaker 2: then the rest of your messages made sense, and I
15:38
Speaker 2: was like, oh, oh.
15:39
Speaker 3: Right, all right, right, the odd him will come back around.
15:42
Speaker 3: And it makes sense, folks. There's a whole world out
15:44
Speaker 3: there that every now and then we don't know about it,
15:47
Speaker 3: and every now and then we're just like right in
15:48
Speaker 3: the middle of Like, huh, how about that. I was
15:50
Speaker 3: up north during the week visit home, and I was
15:53
Speaker 3: coming home quite late and I stopped in one of
15:55
Speaker 3: the the apple greens coming back up as we call it,
15:59
Speaker 3: the big road. Yeah, now, these are the fancy nan
16:02
Speaker 3: apple greens. Tom, you know this term, like there's a
16:03
Speaker 3: petrol station for like smokes and a coffee like these
16:06
Speaker 3: are these.
16:08
Speaker 2: Are our version of what are they called? You know,
16:11
Speaker 2: the ones that have like fifty fucking pumps and yeah,
16:14
Speaker 2: you can buy the stations. What are they called? They're
16:17
Speaker 2: not called bugbies? What are the buggies? BUCkies?
16:19
Speaker 3: BUCkies? Yes, yeah, if you ever get BUCkies nuggets, they're lovely. Now,
16:22
Speaker 3: I'll tell you that much. The crisps any rate, we
16:24
Speaker 3: derail it. It's late at night. I stopped off to
16:27
Speaker 3: get a border in the borber king that was there,
16:30
Speaker 3: and I couldn't help, but notice that there was easily, Tom,
16:34
Speaker 3: easily like a hundred articulated lorries all pulled up. It
16:39
Speaker 3: was like, you know, as I walked out of the
16:41
Speaker 3: of the Apple Green, it was like the birds only lorries,
16:44
Speaker 3: which is like yearly sign.
16:46
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. You can just hear the
16:48
Speaker 2: little generators.
16:49
Speaker 3: The little generators coming like pulled up. And it was
16:53
Speaker 3: only then that I realized, like, oh ah, this is
16:57
Speaker 3: like a hotel for lorries.
16:59
Speaker 2: So is your is your lad the trucker?
17:02
Speaker 3: My lad is the trucker. Now I want to say
17:03
Speaker 3: to you Tom, the truckers and the truck drivers and
17:05
Speaker 3: the lorry drivers as we would have known them. I
17:08
Speaker 3: believe I feel trucker as an americanism that has crept
17:10
Speaker 3: into Ireland. But here we are the world we live
17:12
Speaker 3: in here, guys, just the you know, I always thought
17:17
Speaker 3: the lorry driver's Tom, and I always knew that lorry
17:20
Speaker 3: drivers pulled over and slept, but I always thought it
17:22
Speaker 3: was you know what, Tom. And then once I saw
17:25
Speaker 3: that this was like the Gale talk for lorry drivers,
17:30
Speaker 3: I couldn't for the rest of the week. There's a
17:33
Speaker 3: roundabout not far from kill Shane Cross. If you're turning
17:37
Speaker 3: into Blanches Town off the Ashbourne Bypass and there's a
17:41
Speaker 3: little there's like a roundabout with like it's not I
17:45
Speaker 3: wouldn't say, you know one hundred percent a place where
17:48
Speaker 3: you can park, but there's always like two lorries parked
17:51
Speaker 3: underneath it, like two lorries parked on underpass. Yeah, just
17:54
Speaker 3: having a wee snooze for the night. It's a world
17:57
Speaker 3: I'm not very familiar with, Tom and I think you
17:59
Speaker 3: might be a little bit more familiar with it the mes.
18:01
Speaker 3: So can you take me through the home away from home?
18:05
Speaker 2: That is the Lorry cam you when you see when
18:09
Speaker 2: often when I see trucks, you know, in that situation
18:11
Speaker 2: where you're liketive too, I often think of the truck
18:13
Speaker 2: sleeping as well. I don't know why. It's the Thomas.
18:16
Speaker 2: It's like optimist prime yea having a snooze from stuff.
18:19
Speaker 2: The right man really who we should have tapped up
18:21
Speaker 2: for this was Paul Crowley, a great great.
18:24
Speaker 3: Comic from car Paul har you keeping former.
18:27
Speaker 2: Truck driver and he we I think we've always had
18:31
Speaker 2: an affinity with those sort of lads, especially doing things
18:33
Speaker 2: like you know, hit the diff and I know there
18:35
Speaker 2: was there's a lot of calls for you know, slip
18:37
Speaker 2: the clutch and stuff like that.
18:38
Speaker 3: But I remember a friend of the show, Marty Mohon,
18:42
Speaker 3: mentioned it to us about the the the on the
18:44
Speaker 3: road life of a Lory. Now, I've slept in the
18:48
Speaker 3: back of a car before. Tom, I'm sure you have
18:50
Speaker 3: as well. Yeah, it's not something you'd put up your
18:52
Speaker 3: hand to do. It's not something you do by choice.
18:56
Speaker 3: Can you tell me how the cab of the Lorry
18:58
Speaker 3: differs from the back seat of Renald Car?
19:00
Speaker 2: Oh year, you have no idea. It's luxury personified nowadays,
19:05
Speaker 2: like especially over I know you said like the truck
19:08
Speaker 2: is a kind of an I suppose an American term.
19:11
Speaker 2: The trucks here are nothing like the trucks in America.
19:14
Speaker 2: Trucks in America are dirt. They are dirt. Those big
19:18
Speaker 2: old Macs and that shit. You know, they look the
19:21
Speaker 2: part with the chrome pipes and all the rest, but
19:23
Speaker 2: they haven't they don't have anything like the trucks have here.
19:25
Speaker 2: You're talking about the big Scanias into the five hundreds,
19:28
Speaker 2: and the big Deaf and the big man Ones and
19:31
Speaker 2: these big Renolds and stuff and there. Everything is air riding.
19:35
Speaker 2: You know what I mean you put your fag in
19:36
Speaker 2: the ashtray. There's an air right for con system in
19:38
Speaker 2: the ashtray. You know everything. These guys have their own
19:42
Speaker 2: air fryers. They have coffee machines, proper coffee machines rigged
19:45
Speaker 2: up inside these things. They're bedding at the back. Then
19:49
Speaker 2: you see guys have proper LCD screens built in, you know,
19:52
Speaker 2: the whether it's a PlayStation or whatever. They have a fringe.
19:56
Speaker 2: They have a whole change of clothes. Like there were
19:59
Speaker 2: some color as ones that came once upon a time
20:01
Speaker 2: with like a double fucking cab and they had like
20:04
Speaker 2: their own shower, but then that wasn't needed when you
20:07
Speaker 2: started getting these services maybe twenty years ago, really start
20:10
Speaker 2: coming in and around Ireland, and you see, and why
20:13
Speaker 2: it's not that I know much more about truck's new route.
20:15
Speaker 2: Are only that working in the buildings and stuff. You
20:18
Speaker 2: work with a lot of these guys, But I meet
20:19
Speaker 2: loads of them because I'm always in your position, and
20:23
Speaker 2: later that I don't get the burger.
20:25
Speaker 3: You're still you're still a traveling comedian, Tom So it
20:28
Speaker 3: is rare for me stopping off at Borger King at
20:30
Speaker 3: eleven o'clock at night on the Apple Green on the
20:32
Speaker 3: big road. I can only imagine it is not uncommon
20:35
Speaker 3: for you.
20:35
Speaker 2: It's power of the course. And I mean you get
20:37
Speaker 2: tip offs from truck Do you talk about the guy
20:40
Speaker 2: with the chipper name over? You need to talk to
20:42
Speaker 2: truckers if you need to know the best spots, like
20:44
Speaker 2: because they imagine they know the best spots. But the
20:47
Speaker 2: way the day of the petrol station where you get
20:50
Speaker 2: the you know the key and it's got a fucking
20:52
Speaker 2: half half kilo of fucking timber or concrete hanging off it,
20:56
Speaker 2: and you know, you feel like you've taken us just
20:58
Speaker 2: by looking in the fucking door of the toilet. The
21:01
Speaker 2: day that is quickly going behind us, especially if you
21:04
Speaker 2: have if you have motorway services, because truckers will demand cleanliness.
21:09
Speaker 2: You know when it comes to these scenarios like well.
21:11
Speaker 3: That that is the funny thing, and like you know,
21:13
Speaker 3: you notice all these things at once, Tom that the
21:17
Speaker 3: reason why you don't see fifty lorries pulled around the
21:20
Speaker 3: mom and pop petrol station in the middle of Nohar
21:24
Speaker 3: is because they don't have the facilities. And this particular
21:26
Speaker 3: Apple Green that I was at had shower facilities like
21:30
Speaker 3: you see any camp, you know, Yeah, and that's what
21:33
Speaker 3: it is.
21:33
Speaker 2: It's glamping for truckers.
21:35
Speaker 3: That's what lamping for truckers. I'm fascinated by it. Town.
21:37
Speaker 2: It's and these guys if there's a code of conduct
21:40
Speaker 2: and the reason why they're on your road at that hour,
21:42
Speaker 2: the big road is they're either going to make it
21:44
Speaker 2: down the way to the port or up the way
21:47
Speaker 2: to the port. Do you get me?
21:48
Speaker 3: They're going going from Dublin to Belfast.
21:51
Speaker 2: Literally, you know, and I'm sure they're you know, toddling
21:53
Speaker 2: around with deliveries otherwise. But if they're just truck trucking
21:55
Speaker 2: from port to port, or maybe they're just they're just
21:58
Speaker 2: off the boat, they're going to make a stop and
21:59
Speaker 2: many get early dash for it and got the cork
22:02
Speaker 2: or something the next day. But they're the only person.
22:06
Speaker 2: They're the only people on the road with me late
22:08
Speaker 2: at night, like just so you end up kind of
22:10
Speaker 2: you're in there. And a lot of the Petro stations
22:12
Speaker 2: these days, those ones, there's no more of this ship through.
22:15
Speaker 3: The hatch, right, this thing is pulling up and getting
22:18
Speaker 3: a fucking bagg of the ritos through the hatch.
22:20
Speaker 2: Yeah, you just going, well, what's the nearest thing to you, man,
22:22
Speaker 2: it's got I got star wars here about the counter.
22:24
Speaker 2: Give me six of those so I'm starving. No, Now
22:27
Speaker 2: you can go in about the place. They have the
22:29
Speaker 2: healthy section, they have obviously, the horrendously fucking sugary section.
22:33
Speaker 2: They have everything you need really to tie you through
22:36
Speaker 2: the night, even when the chips the burger kings are
22:38
Speaker 2: closed down and you're meeting these lads and they're you
22:41
Speaker 2: just say things, you know, you just getting up, where
22:43
Speaker 2: you're going, where you're hidding, you know, this kind of stuff,
22:46
Speaker 2: and they're more than happy to tell you. Every time
22:49
Speaker 2: I ever talk to these lads, they're always more than
22:51
Speaker 2: happy to tell you. And where I really drew their
22:53
Speaker 2: attention was when I used to drive. Do you remember
22:55
Speaker 2: used to drive the Ferraris and the Lamborghinis. Yes, these
22:58
Speaker 2: lads will just swarm you. Just this this gaggle we'll
23:02
Speaker 2: call them. I don't know what a collection of truckers is,
23:04
Speaker 2: but we'll call them a murder of truckers, or a
23:05
Speaker 2: gaggle of truckers, or a school.
23:07
Speaker 3: Maker suggestions in the common ladies and gentlemen.
23:09
Speaker 2: But just all these scandier jackets or you know, and
23:11
Speaker 2: they've all got like.
23:12
Speaker 3: V eight you know, the merch Yeah, yeah, yeah.
23:14
Speaker 2: All the they love the Merchin. And as Marty told
23:17
Speaker 2: us about the boots, you've got to have the Superhampton boots.
23:20
Speaker 2: You're at nothing otherwise. And they've all always got the
23:23
Speaker 2: hands in the pockets while looking into the engine bay,
23:25
Speaker 2: like just go co Mairland some fucking stove on that joke.
23:32
Speaker 3: The other thing I could imagine Tom in this little
23:34
Speaker 3: sort of wagon train, so to speak, is that I
23:38
Speaker 3: can only imagine that there's a security in pulling up
23:42
Speaker 3: where there's like fifty other truck drivers there, rather than
23:45
Speaker 3: just picking a spot in a quiet area and pulling
23:48
Speaker 3: over one artic glerry on the side of the road.
23:50
Speaker 3: I can only imagine that's like a prime target for well,
23:53
Speaker 3: the other women.
23:54
Speaker 2: The other if the if highwaymen are a thing, I
23:57
Speaker 2: don't know, but I'm sure these lads it's a whole
24:00
Speaker 2: This is the whole niche thing that we again society
24:03
Speaker 2: really wants to not think about like and go, well,
24:05
Speaker 2: I don't know if that exists or not. And then
24:07
Speaker 2: all of a sudden, like three years ago, country music
24:10
Speaker 2: exploded again and people were like where was it when?
24:13
Speaker 2: Did you what it's like? No? No, country music has
24:15
Speaker 2: been huge among people like the truck and community who
24:18
Speaker 2: have direct ties to you know, I suppose, whether emotionally
24:21
Speaker 2: or relations with America and stuff. So it does cross
24:25
Speaker 2: the border. Like you you look at any especially up
24:28
Speaker 2: the north, any of the big like truck and festivals.
24:32
Speaker 2: Let me just tell you, you know, Lewis Capaldi isn't
24:36
Speaker 2: playing at that, do you get me? Like Marty's top
24:40
Speaker 2: of the bill, Yes.
24:41
Speaker 3: Pulling up in this custom, uh custom.
24:44
Speaker 2: The other people and that's the thing. The other people
24:47
Speaker 2: then you see, and this is what provides that at
24:50
Speaker 2: that hour the night are the guards. The guards are
24:53
Speaker 2: are doing the motor when they're doing their patrols, and
24:55
Speaker 2: they're always filling up a petrol like if you meet
24:57
Speaker 2: if you meet five truckers who meet one guard. There
25:00
Speaker 2: seems to be that kind of so you wouldn't be
25:03
Speaker 2: up to a whole pile in any of these well lit,
25:07
Speaker 2: well serviced service stations, you know what I mean?
25:09
Speaker 3: Like that that that that that brings me to the
25:12
Speaker 3: next point that if you have a how would I
25:14
Speaker 3: say that, Tom, if you have a captive audience of
25:17
Speaker 3: fifty to sixty blokes. Blokes. Yeah, I could only imagine
25:23
Speaker 3: that that might perhaps be other professions of the night
25:28
Speaker 3: might clean up.
25:29
Speaker 2: Do you know the way to do it? I think
25:31
Speaker 2: would be to have a truckload of hors because if
25:35
Speaker 2: you pull into the into the truck and spot and
25:38
Speaker 2: you just rock up in like you know, a seven
25:40
Speaker 2: series Beamer and you're pulling, it's gonna look to us.
25:44
Speaker 2: You you get yourself an actual truck and back into
25:46
Speaker 2: on your own spots and go right, who's having it?
25:50
Speaker 2: Do you know?
25:50
Speaker 3: And you know, I gotta tell you, you know, get
25:53
Speaker 3: that money? What can I tell you? Yeah? Business is business, Jair,
25:55
Speaker 3: business is business.
25:56
Speaker 2: No, no, no, one hundred percent. I tell you one
25:59
Speaker 2: thing i'd consider my elf if I was halfway thought
26:01
Speaker 2: i'd make a few bound off it's I don't know,
26:05
Speaker 2: I don't skirt over that way myself down the front
26:08
Speaker 2: of the trucks because they're all kind of in their
26:10
Speaker 2: own little it really is.
26:11
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I tell you one thing. If you're in
26:13
Speaker 3: the truck area. But there was so many at this
26:15
Speaker 3: particular Apple Green that had snaked all the way back
26:17
Speaker 3: up the exit route. The exit, but you you.
26:20
Speaker 2: Ain't putting your car where they're putting their trucks to
26:22
Speaker 2: get me. And that's not a euphemism for written, that's
26:24
Speaker 2: just actually literally what I'm saying, because you will get
26:28
Speaker 2: harm behind you.
26:30
Speaker 3: I uh, I will say, Tom, Now, given that you
26:33
Speaker 3: are a frequenter of these late night service stations and whatnot,
26:37
Speaker 3: would you ever consider seeing lads these are all pulled
26:40
Speaker 3: up for the evening there? Now, how about just jump
26:42
Speaker 3: out and I'll do it tight twenty minutes of comedy
26:45
Speaker 3: tennor ahead.
26:46
Speaker 2: Can't see it going wrong at all? Culture? Yeah, no, yeah, yeah.
26:50
Speaker 2: Do you know what? I think they have all that
26:52
Speaker 2: they need in that moment because these boys are on
26:55
Speaker 2: the clock, they're making money. I think they're just about
26:57
Speaker 2: getting the head down. They're getting the feed out of
27:00
Speaker 2: Apple Green if they haven't brought it themselves, they're getting
27:02
Speaker 2: a bit of a wash and on down the road. Again,
27:05
Speaker 2: I don't really unless I can go into the actual
27:07
Speaker 2: cab and provide, you know, one on one comedy moments.
27:11
Speaker 2: I don't think these lads are going to coming out
27:12
Speaker 2: of the fucking thing for anything, but you would see
27:15
Speaker 2: One thing like I noticed about him is you don't
27:19
Speaker 2: see dirty trucks at all.
27:20
Speaker 3: Oh no, No, there wasn't a dirty truck.
27:22
Speaker 2: They're all and there's a crew, there's a company near here,
27:25
Speaker 2: near us here, and they all take such pride in
27:29
Speaker 2: their trucks, each one of them that they they get
27:32
Speaker 2: these murals off the airbrushing done. And like there's one
27:37
Speaker 2: has the I think it's a it's like John Wayne
27:41
Speaker 2: themed and it's got him as the proper duke him
27:44
Speaker 2: and the Quiet Man.
27:45
Speaker 3: I have seen the Quiet Man Laurie.
27:47
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's from here.
27:48
Speaker 3: Picture of the Quiet Man. Lay You told me about
27:50
Speaker 3: the Quiet Man Lurry one day and I'm like, trak
27:52
Speaker 3: him down the fifty and I'm like, fuck if that's
27:54
Speaker 3: not the Quiet Man Laurie.
27:55
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's like an only Fools and Horses one going around.
27:58
Speaker 2: There's there's one guy. Think he's got a real lord
28:01
Speaker 2: of the ringsy stuff. And I mean, if you're gonna sell it,
28:03
Speaker 2: you better sell it to a trucker whose into that ship.
28:05
Speaker 3: Like you know what I mean, row, You're you're narrowing
28:07
Speaker 3: the field of people that are going to buy it.
28:09
Speaker 3: But you know, there you go. If we have any
28:11
Speaker 3: listeners that are in the trucking community, the trucking community,
28:14
Speaker 3: we have any lurky driver.
28:15
Speaker 2: It is, I tell you now, it's I've heard both come.
28:19
Speaker 2: I would only take them at the world because I've
28:21
Speaker 2: heard boat come out of lads mouths, because I've I've
28:24
Speaker 2: worked alongside a lot of truckers in the buildings and
28:26
Speaker 2: one particular one. This will just give you a quick
28:28
Speaker 2: insight into I suppose what would you call it the institute.
28:34
Speaker 2: Institutional is the issue of the truck. And if you
28:38
Speaker 2: spend a long time with that lady, it's you know,
28:41
Speaker 2: it's up three steps to heaven. You know, never never
28:44
Speaker 2: late in the v E. All that kind of stuff.
28:46
Speaker 3: I know, as Kanya, what kind of MANI you that's
28:50
Speaker 3: a McBride original? You can have that trucker community.
28:53
Speaker 2: Or you're putting that on a T shirt. Oh, I
28:55
Speaker 2: swear to god, fuck that, I'm deleting that. That's but
29:00
Speaker 2: a chap I knew who have many more stories on.
29:02
Speaker 2: But he was He drove a truck for a company
29:05
Speaker 2: that I worked for and we had sights all over

30:24
Speaker 2: that Jerry you may have picked up on it if
30:26
Speaker 2: you've really good listeners. And as when he started to
30:28
Speaker 2: segue was about was the East Bounded down lyrics which
30:32
Speaker 2: is the course from smoking in the band that which
30:33
Speaker 2: is famous for you know, truck and movie. And it
30:37
Speaker 2: was written by Jerry Reid who's in the movie as well.
30:40
Speaker 2: Jerry had been tasked with it. But Jerry, much like
30:44
Speaker 2: well not Jerry here, is actually great. He's always ahead
30:46
Speaker 2: of the game. Jerry is a whore for the long fingers,
30:48
Speaker 2: he said himself. And it was the night before they
30:51
Speaker 2: went to fil went to went to lay the track
30:53
Speaker 2: down with editing. Jerry song fuck movie made the whole lot.
30:59
Speaker 3: Fuck ah.
31:01
Speaker 2: Jesus Christ wrote it that night in one hour.
31:04
Speaker 3: So he's been down in one hour.
31:05
Speaker 2: And banged it out. When in the next two hours
31:07
Speaker 2: and there you go, let's and became an iconic instant,
31:12
Speaker 2: A hell.
31:13
Speaker 3: Of a song. He's been down written in an hour.
31:16
Speaker 3: There was me thinking that took fucking weeks and weeks
31:18
Speaker 3: to do that time.
31:19
Speaker 2: But there.
31:22
Speaker 3: Right, okay, what are we at here? Now? We're going
31:23
Speaker 3: to push on.
31:24
Speaker 2: There you go.
31:24
Speaker 3: We've got our littery drivers, We've got our bores trotting
31:27
Speaker 3: around South Korea. All we need to do now around
31:29
Speaker 3: this show out is take a look back to the past, baby,
31:32
Speaker 3: because it's not me and Tom's four rodeo. We've been
31:35
Speaker 3: around for a little while, mid forties men over here,
31:37
Speaker 3: born in the nineteen eighties. We've seen a lot of
31:40
Speaker 3: shit come and a lot of shit go.
31:42
Speaker 2: Through what we call the fulkrum of life, Baby, and
31:45
Speaker 2: we talk all about it in our last segment, which
31:47
Speaker 2: we call we Remember when when I was a young.
31:51
Speaker 3: Lad twenty or thirty or forty years.
31:54
Speaker 2: Ago, I take I take your opinion when it comes
31:59
Speaker 2: to movies, and stead like that very highly because you're
32:02
Speaker 2: a movie guy, you know what I mean. You know
32:04
Speaker 2: movies like I've seen as many movies as your average person.
32:07
Speaker 2: But you seem to know movies, you know what I mean?
32:10
Speaker 3: So do you know what Tom? I try? You do?
32:13
Speaker 2: You and my brother in law Joe are very good
32:15
Speaker 2: at movies. You know, you can make connections. You've got
32:18
Speaker 2: that fellows in that thing and stuff like I'm okay, hilariously,
32:23
Speaker 2: like my wife will go remember that fella, he was
32:26
Speaker 2: in that thing. I go, right, let's let's let's see
32:30
Speaker 2: where we're at. And we started off somewhere with Ethan
32:33
Speaker 2: Hawk but ended up being not Stephen Fry but Kevin Bacon.
32:38
Speaker 2: Can you see the connection. Yeah, And all the time
32:41
Speaker 2: I was trying to tell her about Grizzly Adamson died
32:44
Speaker 2: and she was trying to make the connections to that man,
32:46
Speaker 2: and who she really meant after it all was Richard
32:49
Speaker 2: Dean Anderson from mcguiver.
32:51
Speaker 3: That's a random way to get the mcgay for. I'll
32:53
Speaker 3: tell you that.
32:53
Speaker 2: But if you like, I was thinking at the time,
32:56
Speaker 2: going if Jerry was listening in on any part of this,
32:58
Speaker 2: his fucking pulllice nostril hair so out, because he'd be like,
33:00
Speaker 2: I know movies and TV shows, this is Fuscandal's two
33:03
Speaker 2: tick bastards like Jesus Christ.
33:05
Speaker 3: Well that was that was a roundabout way to get
33:07
Speaker 3: to mcgay for. And I gotta tell you, Tom, that
33:08
Speaker 3: was a roundabout way to get to the subject that
33:10
Speaker 3: we remember when this this this.
33:12
Speaker 2: With the shitty segues as well.
33:14
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's kind of this ship's catching buddy. We we
33:19
Speaker 3: remember Academy Awards because as we speak ear Lady Kerry Woman.
33:24
Speaker 3: Jesse Buckley is up for Best Actress in this weekend's
33:28
Speaker 3: Academy Awards for a movie called Hamlet, which I have
33:31
Speaker 3: not seen, Tom, but I hear the laugh riot you say.
33:37
Speaker 3: You say, I'm a movie guy, brother, I used to be.
33:39
Speaker 3: I used to be. I would sit up and watch
33:41
Speaker 3: the Oscars a whole lot. That was my formula one.
33:44
Speaker 3: And I've been to the cinema five times in the
33:46
Speaker 3: last three years, so a lot has kind of passed
33:49
Speaker 3: me by. But with Jesse Buckley up for an Academy Award,
33:52
Speaker 3: we thought that we at the Tom and Jerry Show
33:53
Speaker 3: would take a quick bit pop through the history of
33:57
Speaker 3: Irish people at the Academy Awards. I'm not going to
34:00
Speaker 3: go through all one hundred and ten nominated names here, Tom,
34:02
Speaker 3: but I'm going to cherry pick a few here. We've
34:04
Speaker 3: had a few successes down through the years, a couple
34:07
Speaker 3: of actors. Hopefully this comings on that we'll have an
34:10
Speaker 3: actress to add to it Best Actress. But we seem
34:14
Speaker 3: to have done quite well in the technical fields, don't
34:17
Speaker 3: you know?
34:17
Speaker 2: We have that when you look down through it, you're like, oh,
34:20
Speaker 2: I kind of recognize that person and put, to be
34:22
Speaker 2: honest with you, a rake of them I don't recognize,
34:26
Speaker 2: and that's for good reason. These are people holding trophies,
34:29
Speaker 2: holding the oscars which will set you down the path. Basically,
34:33
Speaker 2: it puts I would say one hundred percent on every
34:35
Speaker 2: invoice after you get one of these like, and you
34:37
Speaker 2: have work forever. If if you're tied in with one
34:41
Speaker 2: of these, like there's a Terrian or the George never
34:44
Speaker 2: heard of them, belfast born daughter and father and they
34:47
Speaker 2: want to.
34:47
Speaker 3: Tell you, I'll tell you what we'll do. We'll we'll
34:49
Speaker 3: we'll bob through it, okay, And I'm not just gonna
34:51
Speaker 3: you know this, ain't reading Wikipedia the podcast, but we
34:55
Speaker 3: are just going to use Wikipedia as a bit of
34:56
Speaker 3: a resource here. There's a lot of a lot that
35:00
Speaker 3: we aren't going to get into Best Film, for example,
35:03
Speaker 3: a few of these are are they're a stretch. Brother,
35:07
Speaker 3: I'll tell you there's a stretch, and I haven't seen
35:09
Speaker 3: that very many of them. And indeed, we have never
35:11
Speaker 3: won anything in Best Director, but we've got O'Neil Jordan's
35:14
Speaker 3: and whatnot there. Let's just jump into a tom with
35:16
Speaker 3: the big one, the one that we would have remembered
35:18
Speaker 3: the most as kids was when we cleaned up in
35:21
Speaker 3: nineteen eighty nine from My Left Foot. Yes, with an
35:25
Speaker 3: Academy Award win our first for an actor from Daniel
35:29
Speaker 3: day Lewis, who has gone on to win two more
35:33
Speaker 3: so he's a triple He's a triple threat. Is Daniel
35:35
Speaker 3: day Lewis's Daniel d Lewis.
35:39
Speaker 2: It's from Wales.
35:40
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, so there's that. You know I have claimed them.
35:45
Speaker 3: We have Tony Cascarino them right, But I.
35:47
Speaker 2: Don't I like, And it's no slight on the man.
35:50
Speaker 2: He's out standing, like no actor the world over would
35:54
Speaker 2: even try and hold his tye hulce is walk into
35:56
Speaker 2: set like, but I think I'm I feel like I'm
36:01
Speaker 2: actually crediting the man properly by going he's Welsh, right, Like,
36:05
Speaker 2: it's not like you nearly let him in if you were,
36:08
Speaker 2: like he's English, trying to shake off the English thing
36:11
Speaker 2: to be Irish go on. So but like there's not
36:13
Speaker 2: wrong with being Welsh. You know his name is Daniel
36:17
Speaker 2: day Lewis. Like those are very put together Welsh names,
36:21
Speaker 2: I can promise you, Like if it was other than
36:23
Speaker 2: just being called Daniel Jones, do you know, like he
36:27
Speaker 2: moves to Wicklaw, like I moved to wik Club. But
36:29
Speaker 2: I'm not never going to be from Wicklow, you know
36:31
Speaker 2: what I mean, it's it's my only Look if he
36:37
Speaker 2: I'm glad if he wants to take an onboard, fair
36:40
Speaker 2: enough and we're But I feel kind of like when
36:42
Speaker 2: the Bridge took you know, Katie Taylor and stuff like that.
36:46
Speaker 3: Gun, I feel like Lewis where no day Lewis exists.
36:50
Speaker 2: Yeah, just a little bit, you know, just a little
36:53
Speaker 2: bit in.
36:53
Speaker 3: That, you know, while we're winning, will take him anywhay.
36:56
Speaker 3: I remembered how when my left what came out I
36:58
Speaker 3: was nine.
37:00
Speaker 2: Was big news.
37:00
Speaker 3: That was like big, big news. He remember, God forgive
37:04
Speaker 3: us passes a foreign country, ladies and gentlemen. But like
37:06
Speaker 3: Christy Brown from my left foot, like Christy Brown was
37:09
Speaker 3: an insult in our class and like God forgive of course,
37:12
Speaker 3: and looking back at it, it made no fucking sense whatsoever.
37:15
Speaker 3: Because if you're bad at football at school, people would say, oh,
37:18
Speaker 3: you're playing like Christy Brown. Not known in the movie
37:20
Speaker 3: Christy Brown scores a fucking hell of a penalty.
37:23
Speaker 2: Do you know it was? We had very limited dialect
37:28
Speaker 2: back then. We had very limited range also of slagging
37:32
Speaker 2: because we didn't know anything. So when the only thing
37:35
Speaker 2: that was presentatives was allowed with disability, You're like, right, oh,
37:39
Speaker 2: that's what I'm going to call you now, do you
37:41
Speaker 2: know the way?
37:41
Speaker 3: Tom? Like I'm not talking like the kids were calling
37:45
Speaker 3: fucking teachers were calling us this. If you got, if
37:48
Speaker 3: you got, if you didn't get your spellings right, you're
37:51
Speaker 3: like Christy Brown. I was like, Oh, I'm like, what
37:53
Speaker 3: fucking multiple award winning poet and author Christy Brown any rate?
37:58
Speaker 2: Very well scored.
38:00
Speaker 3: Again for they will be Blood in Lincoln. And then
38:02
Speaker 3: we got another wind in Best Actor only a couple
38:05
Speaker 3: of years ago by a man who cannot be possibly
38:09
Speaker 3: called anything other than pere cork killing Murphy.
38:13
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, if it was called the only other
38:15
Speaker 2: way it would have been if he would have been
38:18
Speaker 2: more cork, if they called it Finber, that's called Finnburg Murphy.
38:22
Speaker 2: That's like, but Phinnburgmorphino is a black player, like from
38:27
Speaker 2: you know, fucking up the north Side, Like.
38:29
Speaker 3: Hef finn Bar Murphy is coming around to fix the
38:32
Speaker 3: latch on your back door.
38:33
Speaker 2: If he is time, if he's exactly exactly, but he's
38:36
Speaker 2: in e vent that doesn't have any markings on it
38:37
Speaker 2: because he has his own one is in for repair
38:41
Speaker 2: and he has this one as hard.
38:42
Speaker 3: Yeah, I want to give I want to give one
38:44
Speaker 3: shout out before we go on for an irishman who
38:46
Speaker 3: I see here again on Wikipedia, but the name jumped
38:48
Speaker 3: out of me. Dan O'Hurley. He was nominated in nineteen
38:51
Speaker 3: fifty four for a Robinson Crusoe movie. Do you know
38:54
Speaker 3: who Dan O'Hurley is?
38:56
Speaker 2: Please tell me he's related to Bill o'heurley. He actually,
39:01
Speaker 2: do you know?
39:01
Speaker 3: Come to find out he actually might be Dan o'harley
39:04
Speaker 3: grew up and became an old man, and he became
39:07
Speaker 3: the old man in RoboCop, the old Boston robo Cop.
39:10
Speaker 3: No good shooting son. What's your name? Yeah, that's Dana
39:16
Speaker 3: Harley born in Waxford and then moved on out. No
39:21
Speaker 3: mention of his brother being Bill, But they're like, how
39:23
Speaker 3: many of Harley he's going to be any rate? We're
39:25
Speaker 3: going to push on Tom to Best Actress, which we've
39:28
Speaker 3: been nominated in an awful lot, but we have not win.
39:31
Speaker 3: There's one name comes around again and again and again,
39:34
Speaker 3: and that's Sarsha Ronan and I wish the best in
39:37
Speaker 3: our future. End Ever, I don't believe I've ever seen
39:39
Speaker 3: a picture of her moving. I don't believe I've ever
39:42
Speaker 3: watched frame one of the movie She's in.
39:46
Speaker 2: Brooklyn.
39:48
Speaker 3: Haven't seen Ladybird, haven't seen Livy Women, haven't seen.
39:52
Speaker 2: It was quite a good movie, if I remember correctly. Like,
39:55
Speaker 2: but she picks good movies. She's in a position how
39:56
Speaker 2: to pick good movies a year by all the.
39:58
Speaker 3: Kinds of a brilliant actress. But you know what, I
40:00
Speaker 3: gotta tell you. Every now and then, there's just like
40:02
Speaker 3: holds them the knowledge, buddy, Do you.
40:04
Speaker 2: Know what it is to Jerry sometimes, Like when you
40:05
Speaker 2: get little women like you're it's.
40:08
Speaker 3: Hard to find I'm probably not gonna watch that.
40:09
Speaker 2: It's hard to find time in the fucking week, Like
40:11
Speaker 2: between that now and the new Wuthering Heights. I can't
40:13
Speaker 2: see Jerry kicking the fucking door down to watch them.
40:16
Speaker 2: The last three times, four or five times i've been
40:18
Speaker 2: at the cinema, it's been see kids movies. I'll be honest, Yeah,
40:22
Speaker 2: do you know so it? I'd love I'd love to
40:25
Speaker 2: have more time in my hands for these.
40:27
Speaker 3: Here's running gets cast in a Predator sequel. I'm there
40:29
Speaker 3: opening a Baby Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. Tom.
40:33
Speaker 3: We we crop up every now and then we actually
40:35
Speaker 3: have a winning that's come back to nineteen forty four
40:37
Speaker 3: Chap called Barry Fitzgerald, who's near for the fucking first
40:40
Speaker 3: time in my life. And then we go over the
40:42
Speaker 3: best Actress in a Supporting role, and we're back over
40:45
Speaker 3: from my left Foot again, Brenda Fricker winning an oscar
40:48
Speaker 3: in nineteen eighty nine from my left Foot. That was
40:52
Speaker 3: big news in their house, Tom, because Brenda Fricker at
40:54
Speaker 3: the time was in casualty? Was she she was in?
40:59
Speaker 3: She wasnt in casualty and in the early doors, like
41:04
Speaker 3: the very early doors of casualty, that was Brenda Freklan
41:07
Speaker 3: that And we watched that every start in our house,
41:09
Speaker 3: and lo and behold. Then she shows up as Christy
41:11
Speaker 3: Brown's ma'am. And then this this will.
41:14
Speaker 2: Tell you how how your mind can twist as a child.
41:18
Speaker 2: I didn't think she got the best Sporting actor for
41:21
Speaker 2: that one, for my left foot. I thought she got
41:25
Speaker 2: it for playing the woman with bird shit all over
41:27
Speaker 2: and home alone too.
41:28
Speaker 3: I know she was robbed that year, Tom, probbed that year.
41:31
Speaker 2: It's like, but of course they never give it out
41:32
Speaker 2: for comedies, so they don't. They never give an ASCAR
41:34
Speaker 2: out for a comedy like so it wouldn't have made sense.
41:37
Speaker 2: But in my head, I'm like, I'll be honest, I
41:39
Speaker 2: didn't have a hold pile at eight years of age.
41:41
Speaker 2: I didn't have a hold fucking pile for my left foot,
41:44
Speaker 2: A pile of time, like do you know we it
41:46
Speaker 2: was the kind of thing that you were sat in
41:47
Speaker 2: and made watch so that you'd know how you don't
41:51
Speaker 2: be given out the next time, so you know how
41:53
Speaker 2: good you had it exactly, you know how.
41:55
Speaker 3: Good you have a look at the Browns that not
41:57
Speaker 3: like sixteen of them in counting Tom I'm gonna buy
42:00
Speaker 3: be on now the best Adapted screenplayer where we have
42:02
Speaker 3: won an oscar. This might be the first Oscar ever
42:04
Speaker 3: to grace these shores in nineteen thirty eight and it
42:06
Speaker 3: was won by George Bernard Shaw And I read that
42:09
Speaker 3: and I'm like the fucking pub lad.
42:11
Speaker 2: But that's the thing, like there's but there's a bunch
42:13
Speaker 2: of stuff named after him, Like I whatever about Daniel
42:15
Speaker 2: de Lewis and all of these people. I don't know,
42:17
Speaker 2: do you have to die first? But George Bernershaw has
42:19
Speaker 2: a rake of things and they're named.
42:20
Speaker 3: After him, like so ignorant Tom. I'm terby, sorry, but
42:23
Speaker 3: when I see George Bernard Shaw, you might as well
42:26
Speaker 3: say to me that that's fucking Plato. Well he toldly
42:30
Speaker 3: he lived four hundred years ago. I believe you.
42:32
Speaker 2: But that's what I had in my head too, until
42:34
Speaker 2: I started reading up on this, I thought he was
42:36
Speaker 2: genuinely around in like the lads. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,
42:42
Speaker 2: yeah yeah, because it's it's a cool name, like George
42:44
Speaker 2: Bernard Shaw, it's.
42:45
Speaker 3: A cool tone and the lads and the lads.
42:47
Speaker 2: It was just I just assumed that, you know, I've
42:51
Speaker 2: seen pictures of him and he's got that timeless like
42:53
Speaker 2: Fagan look about him, Like yeah, So I never really there.
42:58
Speaker 2: There was a period like between like the seventeen hundreds
43:01
Speaker 2: to like the early nineteen hundred is all the one
43:04
Speaker 2: to me where everybody looked.
43:05
Speaker 3: The sit Yeah yeah, it all just like oh yeah,
43:07
Speaker 3: here's here's Oscar Wilde. Oh yeah, here's Oscar wild In
43:09
Speaker 3: the sixteen hundreds. I don't fucking know.
43:11
Speaker 2: It was like that all the way to air Jordan's
43:13
Speaker 2: and then you could pick people apart in in movies,
43:15
Speaker 2: You're like, okay, right, yeah, I'm.

Speaker 3: Going to bop beyond the best Animated Feature. Now we
43:19

Speaker 3: another win that we had, which was best original song
45:49
Speaker 3: man Glenn's Glenn hansard one for falling Slowly And I

Speaker 3: even now, and he was singing it with a lady Marketta,
46:01
Speaker 3: and they won. And he went up and you're only
46:03
Speaker 3: giving a certain amount of time to make a speech,
46:05
Speaker 3: say like forty seconds, and Glenn Handser made a thirty
46:09
Speaker 3: nine second speech, leaving her just to say thanks and
46:12
Speaker 3: walk off. A decad move. Fuck, Glenn answered, not just
46:17
Speaker 3: for this, for several other things, but there you go,
46:20
Speaker 3: like it's one thing to be a decade, it's one
46:22
Speaker 3: thing to show to the fucking entire world how much
46:25
Speaker 3: of a dickhead you are. John Stewart was hosting the
46:27
Speaker 3: Oscars that year, and he felt so bad about it
46:30
Speaker 3: that he went out the back and got Marketta out
46:32
Speaker 3: onto the stage again, saying, sorry, you got completely cut
46:35
Speaker 3: off there going say what you want to say before
46:36
Speaker 3: any other seeds went a gentleman, I told answered, here's
46:42
Speaker 3: the damnedest thing, Tom. There's one man called Peter Devlin,
46:46
Speaker 3: unmistakably in Irish name, it must be said. And this
46:49
Speaker 3: man is getting nominated left, right and center over the
46:53
Speaker 3: last twenty to twenty five years. He's gotten let me
46:55
Speaker 3: see two forces, take a half dozen credits here. Now
46:58
Speaker 3: he's a special effects to and he's worked on like
47:02
Speaker 3: Transformer and Marvel movies and all this kind of thing,
47:05
Speaker 3: which you know, they don't trouble the Best Film category
47:08
Speaker 3: at the Oscars, but they do have best Sound, and
47:12
Speaker 3: Peter Devlin is hip deep in that.
47:15
Speaker 2: Baby. This is the thing. There's a load of the
47:17
Speaker 2: Oscars that kind of go on when you know everybody's
47:21
Speaker 2: out to a fag break, like there's a load of
47:23
Speaker 2: Oscars that don't actually make the telly, and they'll do
47:25
Speaker 2: an honorable kind of whip through at the you know,
47:27
Speaker 2: at the end, going.
47:28
Speaker 3: And I will say it's less and less every year.
47:30
Speaker 3: Every year they'll cut something else out.
47:32
Speaker 2: Yeah, so there are like that, there's people all over all.
47:36
Speaker 2: It's more and more of actually starting to come across it.
47:38
Speaker 2: Like where there'll be you know, some bloke who came
47:41
Speaker 2: through belly Farmer's school and now all of a sudden
47:43
Speaker 2: he's he's done all the Avatar movies exactly.
47:47
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a lady here and again I'd never seen
47:48
Speaker 3: her name, but she's got two Oscars for Best Makeup
47:52
Speaker 3: and Hairstyling Michelle Burke. And again yeah yeah, yeah, just
47:55
Speaker 3: on a twenty year tear here of two four, six, seven,
47:58
Speaker 3: seven or more nominations and two wins like that a
48:02
Speaker 3: hell of an arverage.
48:03
Speaker 2: MARYL.
48:03
Speaker 3: Streep doesn't fucking have that, yeah yeah, yeah yeah, And
48:06
Speaker 3: and and we we we we draw to a close
48:08
Speaker 3: again as you say, there are Richard Baynham there just
48:11
Speaker 3: cleaning up for Avatar or pair of oscars for Best
48:14
Speaker 3: Visual Effects. Like we do well, Tom, we do well.
48:17
Speaker 3: A lot of people might say, well, you don't win
48:20
Speaker 3: Best Actor or the Best Actress all that often. We're
48:23
Speaker 3: getting in the long grass, baby, We're getting in the
48:25
Speaker 3: long grass.
48:26
Speaker 2: Neil Jordan, I'd say, has a track well worn of
48:30
Speaker 2: that red carpet. I'd say, now do anything about it,
48:32
Speaker 2: because in all fairness, he has he gets, he's gotten
48:36
Speaker 2: himself stuck in with plenty of like he'd have to
48:40
Speaker 2: be there for me, even if he personally isn't actually nominated,
48:43
Speaker 2: like like in I think it was he he did
48:48
Speaker 2: Michael Collins and I picked up two Oscars, two Oscar nominations,
48:52
Speaker 2: but he picked up six nominations for The Crying Game. Yes,
48:57
Speaker 2: and they in that one. I think they picked up
49:00
Speaker 2: one for the Best Original Screenplay. Now I don't know,
49:04
Speaker 2: maybe he wrote it. I don't know the mag did
49:07
Speaker 2: he actually did he actually write it, because it's it's
49:09
Speaker 2: it's him, it's in there that that that's been named
49:11
Speaker 2: in it. But like he's a fellow that would skip
49:14
Speaker 2: by and you know what I mean, if you shook
49:15
Speaker 2: hands on and we go, I know that fella is.
49:17
Speaker 2: But the next then you start to look up his
49:19
Speaker 2: Wikipedia like, oh my Jesus, like but again he will
49:25
Speaker 2: never not. It's it's one of those few ones. Like
49:28
Speaker 2: it's almost like winning you know, the w BO heavyweight title.
49:33
Speaker 2: You need only do it once and you'll be forever
49:35
Speaker 2: called champ you know what I mean, Like he this
49:38
Speaker 2: is all stuff in the early nineties that he picked
49:40
Speaker 2: up nominations and actual awards for. But like, if you
49:45
Speaker 2: wanted to make a movie, now, any investors that can
49:48
Speaker 2: throw money at it because they're like, yep, let's know
49:51

52:44
Speaker 2: on a farm in Australia.
52:45
Speaker 3: By god, there you go.
52:47
Speaker 2: When I found out that no other child in my
52:48
Speaker 2: primary school I had ever heard this expression, I chugged
52:51
Speaker 2: off to be my old boy being a veterinarian at
52:55
Speaker 2: the Greyhounds.
52:57
Speaker 3: A farmer and a weekend butcher. That's triple job. And
53:00
Speaker 3: that's the Irish in Australia.
53:01
Speaker 2: Baby. Good to know that there are some other mad
53:04
Speaker 2: best still advocating clear line of sight between the dog
53:07
Speaker 2: and his dinner on the led steer A fair fox.
53:10
Speaker 2: There go, dear.
53:11
Speaker 3: But I'll tell you one thing. Let the dog's hear
53:12
Speaker 3: the rabbit in a farm in Australia. Wouldn't that have
53:14
Speaker 3: been like let the ding I say, the wull be No,
53:18
Speaker 3: you'll leave the access if the anilinator over here on
53:21
Speaker 3: Spotify says that he is indeed the man of his house.
53:23
Speaker 3: We talked about being the man of the house or
53:25
Speaker 3: the man of the house in name only. If you're
53:27
Speaker 3: a lady, you can be a man in the house
53:28
Speaker 3: as well. I suppose all you need, according to Nilinator,
53:32
Speaker 3: is spanners and socket sets. I love a socket set, Tom, Yeah,
53:36
Speaker 3: I always like like the idea of opening a socket set.
53:39
Speaker 3: And it's like, do you know, like in the movies,
53:41
Speaker 3: if you see someone that's like a torture expert.
53:44
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I'll tell you what the the sleepy person.
53:49
Speaker 2: And this should be a piece of advice written underneath
53:51
Speaker 2: the nihlinators one where he says the thirteen's and nineteens
53:53
Speaker 2: often go missing, and things forever go missing. I guarantee
53:57
Speaker 2: it there probably in your engine base and we're rattling
53:59
Speaker 2: around the Always be very careful from which side you open.
54:04
Speaker 2: It's like snipping away.
54:05
Speaker 3: Oh.
54:06
Speaker 2: And if you have like the fifty two piece set.
54:09
Speaker 3: Oh do you know? Do you know what it is
54:11
Speaker 3: like when you when you open the socket set upside down?
54:16
Speaker 3: But everything is just where it should be and it
54:18
Speaker 3: doesn't roll away, and you have an opportunity, if you're
54:21
Speaker 3: very gentle to close it again.
54:23
Speaker 2: Don't talk about what if Jerry that kind of stuff
54:26
Speaker 2: damn here, never that's happens. I can do the lottery
54:29
Speaker 2: if you that has happened that has.
54:30
Speaker 3: Happened to me. It comes out onto the spongey side
54:33
Speaker 3: of the of the socket set and you get to
54:35
Speaker 3: just very gingerly it's like it it's like it just
54:37
Speaker 3: walked very very carefully back from a sleeping tiger.
54:42
Speaker 2: John Murphy says Tom should have his own history segment,
54:46
Speaker 2: his Straight and Global segment, where Tom and Farmer's Jerry,
54:50
Speaker 2: Where and when the britge centers around the world as
54:52
