  Speaker 1: I never watched it.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: It's well worth watch. But there's a ridiculous part where
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: there's a black black arms dealer puts on the display
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: over a quarry like in the middle of nowhere. For
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: these you know, nefarious lords, Yes, yes, crazy lords that

• 3:19
  Speaker 2: And he puts on this. They put on this huge
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: airshow of bombs bombing the shite out of some quarry.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: That's what's happening here. That's what's happening here. Come to
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: find out that that since mid September, the people that
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: sell these things up here not in a dignified manner
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: like they do back up home across the border from
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: across the border. More on that in a second, But
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: across the border, I would still count it as being
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: in the radius of the home. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah,
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: where you sell it from a shop or failing that,
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: a lorry container with a cash registering it. Yeah here,
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: it's lad's just selling it out of the books, cars
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: and things like this, and try before you buy. I'm
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: not giving you a fifty euro for that. Only one
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: of them going off.
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: I love fuck the law and everything to do with it.
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: Fastidious salesman will still always be selling, do you know
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: what I mean? Like they go, well, look, look i'll
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: set one off, but you gotta be buying one hundred
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: and fifty.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: Show me the collery your money there.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, we're not. We're not. We're not. You know
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: we're not. You know, we're not doing the dance anymore.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna set one off. Set one off is better.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: They do say let one off. It's like you've been
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: holding the fucking thing and it just like although, yeah,
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: I'm sure some weeks do do chance holding on to
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: and that'll be the last time you'd hold on to one.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: There are a lot of there are a lot of
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: hand fired rockets around here that seems to be and
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: we're going to get into it now time, okay, because
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: we are going to talk about fireworks here for a
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: little second Adventures in fireworks. But I want to jump
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: in first to the listenership of the Tom and Jerry
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: podcast and say, please, fireworks are dangerous. Ah, don't let
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: them off around your house. Only handle fireworks if you're
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: a trained professional. That's the stand of the Tom and
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: Jerry Show.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, most definitely. I to be fair, I wouldn't. You'd
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: have to travel far. There's a wedding venue neuros here
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: that sets them off on a regular.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: Base runs the most here as well.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: Like I said, there's slightly more. I suppose potentially dangerous
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: stuff is going off here in this current season because
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: we are getting it is like World War D at
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: the minute with the amount of deer that I know
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: that's the dick, but the amount of deer that are
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: just I don't know what kind of banging they did
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: last season, but my god, there is some amount of
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: So there's lads. I'd say if they triple barrel rifles
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: they would be shooting, they still wouldn't get rid of
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: enough of them. Like they're just shooting deer left right
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: and center, left right and center. So you're going to
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: see in your local superstore, I would say, in the
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: next month or so, a lot of brand new Venison
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: products that are going a load of because there's a
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: there's a there's a many i'd say manufactured. There's a
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: processing plant not far from here that does only Venison
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: that imagine his freezes are fairly full of the minute.
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: Well, I don't know that I'll have the money for
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: Tom because Venison's.
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: Dear, you're you know what your you're I'm gonna look
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: at it. I'm gonna let you have it. There's people,
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: there's people listening. Love that right now.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: They love that's that's that's what the that's what they
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: call a joke.
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: Okay, fair enough, fair enough, but yeah, not much in
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: the way of fireworks these days. I don't get to
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: see the odd wedding you get. We didn't go from
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: at our wedding because they seemed well, it'll be over
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: in three minutes and it's gonna cost this.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and then you're paying hundreds of euros to enough buys.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: I got married to Tom like it's it's there's enough
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: buyes with the handout before you turn around, go yeah,
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: let off sixteen one of you're worth the fireworks.
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: There for a load of drunk people who won't remember
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: it in a fit. Do you'll be.
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: Giving out of the cold?
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, exactly. Can we go back in? Please?
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, go back in. But regardless of that, Tom, that
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: doesn't seem to be stopping the young gentleman in the
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: double in fifteen area here, and indeed the young ladies
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: may or may not be letting no fireworks. I don't know,
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: but it seems to be probably gig in. It seems
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: to be a predominantly.
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: Male It's like we talked about it in past days past,
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: like the girl driving the card stuff. It's typically lads
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: to do stupid shit, do you know what I mean?
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: Stupid ship is done by everybody, But dangerous shit where
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: you lose a body part or die is typically blokes
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: bloke territory.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, do you know typically if you're a lady that's
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: lost a body part doing some stupid shit, let us
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: know in the comments. Oh yeah, But Tom, I want
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: to know your history with fireworks because you're way way side.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: So when you were a young fellow, I'm sure you
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: had a couple of rockets and squibs and whatnot, Like
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: where would you get rockets as a gas.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: The very first time? And this will tell you how
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: lax things were back in the day with travel and
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: everything else. My cousins and this is my cousins. Jesus Christ,
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: we can nearly have a corner for Tom's American cousins
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: and the stuff they brought. They brought black cat bangers
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: in an airplane.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: More on that in a second one. They brought you you,
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: they brought you fireworks to your house from America.
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: That had been made. I mean, the way they looked
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: at it was they were Chinese made, so they got
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: flown to America, probably bothed to America, most likely, but
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: I mean equally, both both quite dangerous. But they brought him.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: And I'll never forget the very they were always class
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: huge bangers outside. And then I thought, I'll look the
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: anty and I was showing one of the guys how
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: one of them worked one day in the hall at home,
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: and I put it in a pecan inside. Yes, suffered,
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: Sweet Jesus. We couldn't hear, We couldn't hardly think for
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: a good five minutes afterwards, the two It was the
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: stupidest thing you could have ever done.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: To get you till I have a stupider thing, I'll
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: tell you, suh.
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: And to get your hands, to get your hands on fireworks.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: There was one bloke, is all I remember. And he
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: drove a blue hias Van, That's what I remember. And
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: he would have made a trip north of the you know,
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: of the border, and he would be He had no
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: makinger share, He did not have a shelving system, if
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean. It was like somebody somebody
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: just backed really quickly with it like a dumper, hit
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: the brakes and it all just shot out and you
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: just kind of got what you got, and you got typically, yeah,
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: you got some rockets and stuff, but there was none
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: of the these things you see on like you know,
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: acme was not written down the side of it. You know,
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: the coyote was not going to be buying any of
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: this ship. But it was still they would take off
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: with ghosto like. I mean, they were good. You get
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: a good hundred feet out of somebody's and they before
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: they bang that. But yeah, I mean I think the
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: old man had seen enough of them down the line
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: where he was kind of he stood over a few
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: of them like he was he'd help us get him
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: and stuff like that. But he stood up and stand
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: over and go all right by stand up like and
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: I remember stand remember him like when the fuse would be,
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: you know, a fingernail along and he just he just
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: damp on it, going you're not going for that one.
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: By it was we dodged. I mean, there was so
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: many other things that were so dangerous when we were young.
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: Really this was all right, yeah, but still exciting for Halloween,
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: all right, to get the same A neighbor, mind, my friend,
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: his old man was a singer country and stuff like that,
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: so he was up the north an awful lot, and
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: he would bring he'd bring down good gear. Now he
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: had all mad jokes that would go off, like Roman candles.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: Well, this is this is what I'm going to tell you, Tom,
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: I'm going to get into you. Like there was really
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: like those three to four sort of classifications of what
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: you could buy, because that'd be the same, only I'd
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: be just a stone's throw from the border. I could
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: just skip across the border anytime my parents were driving
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: that direction is not the car oright anding like that.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: But you had bangers, yeah, rockets, yeah, repeaters as we
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: called them. And a repeater was a tube that would
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: like spit a thing out. And then you had Roman
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: candle or candles, which we didn't go near because we
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: classed them as being just basically sparkled for children. They
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: were no good, right, okay, But the repeaters on the
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: rockets were two big ones.
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: If the repeater was big enough, it was class as
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: an air bomb, right yeah, yeah, And the rockets came
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: in two different sizes. You had squealers, which were trying
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: I believe what the Americans called bottle rockets just a
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: little sort of a little pop nothing major, but you
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: know you could buy ten of them for two pounds, yes,
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: whereas the other rockets were a tenor for five. Got
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: some money's work with them. That was it. That was
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: the whole selection that the bangers you talk about there, Tom,
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: the black Cat bangers. They used to come in two types,
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: and one was like it had a little nube on
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: the end of it that it didn't have a fuse.
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: The fuses like a little nub that you struck it
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: like a match.
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I know the ones around about. I've seen him.
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: I did. I did not trust them fucking things.
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: No.
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: The idea of it, because there were little sticks of
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: dynamite is what we that's all they are. Yeah, no,
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: a mini stick of dynamite.
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: But it actually had a fuse that you could light
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: and you'd have a few seconds to throw it like
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: and once once they came along after a couple of
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: years to stop being these strike like a match things
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: that I didn't like because you literally had to hold
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: them in your hand while it was lit. There was
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: no other way to do it. At least with the fuse.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: You could put it on the ground and light it
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: and go back right. So when the fuses came along.
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: I was in hog heaven because now you had a
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: controllable thing, and you could put stones and whatnot on
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: top of light and do all this kind of thing.
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: I told you that, I'd tell you a stupider thing
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: than put it, and you can would your idear?
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: All right? I decided one day that if you had
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: a black cat banger and you lit it and I
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: went bang, that was good.
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: Right, Yeah?
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: What would be better than that?
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: Tom strapping a bunch of them together?
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: Now you're talking, right, So I put about five of
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: them together with a couple of elastic bands around us, right,
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: and I got the fuses of them and I twisted
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: them together.
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: Right Jesus Christ, look at this guy straight out of
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: and Die Heart.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: Right, braided them together, and I lit it so that
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: all the fuses lit at the one time. Right.
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: You know at me so far, you're a YouTube sensation
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: if this was if it was on the go back
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: in your day.
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: But that'll that'll give you the the noise of five
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: bangers going off at once, right.
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: I can't see any any problems here.
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: Neither could I. Tom. Okay, here's the problem. They'll all
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: go off at the same time. If the fuse burns
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: into the banger at exactly the same split second, oh yeah, yeah.
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: If it doesn't, if it gets to one even a
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: hair faster than the rest, that one will blow. And
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: what you've just made is a cluster bomb. Yeah yeah,
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: And that's what happened. It was one bang and then
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: four other bangers lit flying everywhere into the crowd.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: Right where did you? Where did you do this?
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: At the back of the house. But there was a
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: couple of us there like, and I was like, oh, deadly,
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: it's going to be one big bang, not tom No,
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: it's going to be five little bangs. And some of
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: them might be closer to you than they think.
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, hey, lads, let's put a let's put a bag
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: of nails down over them as well, just to see
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: what happens.
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: Just just what the hell, Just what the hell I'd
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: be putting that, I'd be putting in. I'd be putting
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: bangers in, little jars of white spirits and things like this.
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: I'd be making little bombs.
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, you know. I always there was there
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: was always a fascination with The Simpsons. I remember because
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: there was an episode where Bart got he was got
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: a banger, but he got a cherry Bomby called it.
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: Which I guess is just that's just their blackout banger.
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: Right, But there was ones that would because I thought
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: it was just the cartoon or whatever, but it would
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: actually stay burning underwater.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and you flush them down the toilet and it
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: will blow. Yeah. I'm going to need to see that done.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, because I asked. I asked people and they were like, oh, no,
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: I think there is a thing. Nobody's ever definitively said no.
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: I think we're gonna have to test that one because
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: if nothing else. Now, you know, you're getting into the
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: American plumbing system and how all toilets are connected. And
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: it's not like how errors will just drop into if
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: you flush, it will just drop into an empty, hollow
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: four inch pipe with the BOTTO have covered and ship.
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah you know, so there's terms and conditions to plan that.
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: But I wanted this is this is really the if
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: you want to bring it into the weekly what have you?
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: Other than there are a lot of fireworks around here,
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna give it to you now, Okay, Tom, I
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: was up the north there last weekend, all right, see
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: the mam and dad, you know, take the kids up
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: to see that.
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: North have the Republic of Ireland. I know it.
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: We're still in the Republic. But like I say, everything,
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: you know, we should have crossed the border to get
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: a few bits and pieces. In the driving to my
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: mom and dad's house, he crossed the border.
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: And fireworks and diesel is cheap boxes of dazz whatever
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: you want, right, yeah, yeah, And I stopped.
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: Off in the fireworks hut to a very specific thing
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: right near Lorgan.
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, not up that far north now, okay, right, all right,
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: I know the hust down further. Yes, there's another one.
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Tom, Tom, you say the hut like there's one
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: little gate huts, you know what I mean?
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: This is like I love it, of all the things
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: to have your fire work saying, like a hut, like
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: a contained little shit the thing that could actually fucking
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: blow to the moon, could space.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: It's a forty flurry container like you know, if you're
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: going to make a noise, let off a banger in
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: one of these. But that's my point, right. I wanted
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: black cat bangers. That was it. I just wanted simple
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: black cat bangers.
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: Tom.
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you now what I wanted them for. The
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: wee Man loves YouTube videos of various YouTube's just nonsense,
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: but one of the things he loves is, like, you know,
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: there's entire YouTube channel is dedicated to putting firecrackers under
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: Lego and filming and slow motion and seeing Lego fly everyone.
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: I was like, you know what, kid, I'll tell you what.
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: That's something we can put together. Okay, you can stay
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: in the house and watch it through the window and
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: we'll put a fire cracker or a black cat under
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: a couple of week Lego men or some such and
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: you know that's a whole some activity.
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: Right, yeah, yeah, yeah, give them to get a one
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: time and it kind of worked out by my memory.
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we're gonna put them many can here. It could
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: be wholesome father soun behavior, or it could be hard
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: to make a serial killer. I mean, in the next
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: twenty years, will tell us.
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: Right, do you know we'll watch it with with a
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: close eye exactly. This could be the nucleus of something great.
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: I mean, depending on how this experiment goes, we could
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: be watching it with one eye. Right. Yeah, here's the
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: thing I haven't in And I goes you know, Joe
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: vil enough, I goes on, there'll be no big sale today.
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: I'm just looking for a box of black cats. We
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: don't tell them what they don't tell them?
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: Why don't they didn't they sell them? Are they all out?
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: I says, it's all out? Or what crack you? And
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: and and I don't know if you've ever seen a
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: film Tom called eight millimeter with Nicholas Cage in it
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: many years ago, right, and if you catch up with
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: eight millimeter, it's all about snuff films and all this
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: kind of crack. And they go to some cd rnal distribution.
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, he any snuff films and they're
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: all like, hey, you get out of here, get out
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: of here, don't be coming around here. You're sick.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: Oh, get out of here.
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: Don't becoming asking me for such things. And that's how
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: I was treated looking for black capt bangers. It was like, genuine,
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: they're illegal. What do you mean, what do you mean
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: you want black cat bangers? They're legal?
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, with all this shit's illegal, wall to wall illegal
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: ship if we been this is illegal.
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: But I'm not talking about I'm not talking about illegal
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: down the South. I'm just talking about you know, black
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: cats bangers like ten for a five or whatever, you're
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: charging these days. I don't even want, like, you know,
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: two packs twenty euros work, twenty starling work whatever. Be
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: No Tom, even up in the lawless north of Ireland,
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: even up in post brexit UK.
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: Which is the same one to call it up there
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: that it's take careful, Yeah, essentially the play it's they're
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: they're like the Pilgrims. They may as well have buckles
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: on their hats. That's how wild west it is up there. Yeah,
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: go on.
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: You cannot buy ten to a packet black cat bangers,
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: or any bangers of any sort. You can buy all
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: the rockets, Roman candles, squealers, repeaters, mortars, the whole lot.
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: You cannot buy simple lightenman throwing black cat bangers. They
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: are illegal and have been for apparently a long long time.
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: Was the word, I don't know what's getting thrown at
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: my door?
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: Was the word came back that possibly you know they
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: there had been a young fill one time he carried
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: across the type five of the fucking things together and
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: ruined it for everybody.
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: Putting them in jarro white spards. But no, there you go.
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: That is the big news. Black cat bangers. Can they
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: be got from other through other methods. Probably not, I
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: don't know, but you cannot buy black Cat bangers. The
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: person just told me that, right, just look there there
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: there are small sticks in dynamite. So they became illegal
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: a couple of years ago. Goes, yeah, I know there
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: are small sticks in dynamite, but that's why I wanted them.
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah. All I have a picture of is is Remember
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: did you ever watch Boogie Nights when things are going
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: off the rails and there's just some random Asian kid
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: in the corner and the music is playing, Like I
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: wish I had just the get black Cats and just
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: thrown across the seat room like I was going, Yeah,
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: I can see that. I can see that. I can
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: see that never getting boring.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, there you go, there you go, But there you go.
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: If folks, what are your experiences with fireworks? Are you
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: surprised the black Cat bangers have been taken off the market,
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: even in the lawless UK, even Starmer's UK. Let us
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: know in the comments what you think about that. Have
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: you got all your fingers? Are you missing a few
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: from fireworks? Let us know we're not making light of it,
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: but we would like to know.
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: Well, clearly they made a light of it and didn't
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: let go of it in time. That's the problem.
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: So I was the problem lighter than leave it.
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean there's some of those Indian festivals and
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: that you see where it's just like the lads just
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: setting them off in their hands. Have you seen that?
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: Have you seen that one where they put them on
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: a metal plate and they out in like the town square.
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: I need to find this to center it on to you.
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: I don't know what it's in celebration of, but it's
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: like along with those color run festivals, you know what. Yes,
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: but the boys are insane, like black cats on steroids.
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: They put these things lighting down on like a metal
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: plate and then swing like a fourteen pound sledge down
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: the tolf of it, sending it into orbit the plate and.
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: It just it would seem I'm glad I didn't see
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: that back when black cats were available, because I would
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: absolutely do that.
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: To be fair, it does look like some crack, But
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: to be fair, it does look like Mumbai with you know,
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: where there's a lot of people possibly overpopulation, and maybe
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: that's why the government aren't actually shutting it down there,
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: like yeah, go on sorting itself out. Just just let
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: them at it.
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: Leave them to it. Well, there you go, light the
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: fuse and stand well back and tell you Tom, you
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: would have had to stand well well back from this
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: week's this lad. As everybody knows, we've got we've got
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: a we've got a segment in the middle of the
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: show here where we pick one lad, someone that just
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: stood out more than anybody else and celebrate them. Because
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: when we say it's this lad, we don't mean this lad.
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: We mean it's this list lad. Now there's that guy,
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: this lad, this week's this lad, and we've gone through
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: many guys. Is everything from animals to this lag can
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: be a girl, This lag can be a boy, This
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: lag can be and this lag kind of comes into
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: under a storm, a weather, a weather occurrence.
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: Yes, indeed, but he does have a name.
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: He does Milton. Not the most scary sounding name. I mean,
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: it's one of the lesser strength cleaners around the house
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: that you be washing the baby's bottles. But and whatnot. Ye,
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: this villa was all set to be a proper ambassadard, Yes,
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: like they were ready for three hundred and fifty K
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: winds off the back of this hitter. I don't know
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: if it hit that on the mainland in around Tampa
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: and central Florida. If you imagine you're going with because
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: of the guy the other day, absolutely describing California to
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: me was like, no, it's on the other side, and
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: it's kind of shit. It's a bit of a weird
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: looking mickey hanging off, you know, hanging off the bottom
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: right and corner off and if you go halfway down
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: the shaft, Tampa is down around there. That's where they
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: reckoned it with hate. Now would say everything from Fort
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: Lauderdale right down to the keys. You know, Miami was
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: going to get a belt of this year, but for
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: Lauderdale or Tampa is where it was heading.
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: For Tampa is where as as in hurricane parlance, Tom
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: Milton was going to make landfall.
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: Make landfall in Tampa exactly. I mean a mad place
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: to live anyway, but it was the I mean, I mean,
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: Florida just rights itself anyway. I mean, everybody, we don't
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: need to get too.
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: I will say one thing. I will say one thing
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: for our credit. Tom. When when we first conceive this show,
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: we always felt like that this lad segment, we didn't
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: want it just to be you know, the Florida man segment.
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: I think.
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: I do believe Milton is the first Florida man we've had.
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: I think it is actually do you know what it is?
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: Low hanging fruit. But we've been trying to avoid actual
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: I mean, there'll be a day when we just have
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: no choice, you know what I mean, when some fellow
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: goes just the zombie and just you know, bites off
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: his own gentitles, we're going to have to talk about it.
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: But in this case, it was the storm. But it
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: was the kind of legendary moves that came from the storm. Yes,
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: from certain people that you look, only Americans and possibly
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: wild Slavic lads would give a go to some of
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: the stuff that goes on it. You know, there's there's
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: pretty a big storm coming, like as.
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: We'd say, up their way to tom When it comes
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: to the Floridians, they're wanting them.
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: Oh, there's a want of them. I have cousins, have
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: cousins from now. They're very up the north, you know,
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: near the head handle. I believe they call it, yes, Alabama,
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: Texas kind of the area. But they'd be kind of
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: wild enough too. But they have a very much an
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: understanding that they're very much not tempa ease people mad
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: whurs that you know, but they yeah, it was the
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: it was the out to fall out the stories around
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: people that.
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: That's what that's what we want because like this thing
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: Milton hit last Thursday, and to be fair, now I
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: did kill eighteen people and you know that, but it
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: was looking like it was going to be a hell
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: of a lot worse heading into an eighteen is a
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: bad number for any sort of a storm. But like
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: you know, and our symplties and all that kind of crack.
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: But we didn't want to make light of Milton last
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: week on the show, even though it would have landed
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: part thing because it was looking like untold devastation and
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: hundreds dead and it wouldn't have looked good the Tom
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: and Jerry show, just making ships and giggles on that day.
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: But now a week removed, I think we have a
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: right to go and take a look at some of
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: the individuals that Milton did up Tom to the point
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: where we got to know them. So they are if
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: you want, if you willed Tom that these lads within
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: the disc lad, if you.
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: Get me, well they they I mean Americans are not
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: I mean, if anybody's watch you know, doomsday preppers and whatnot.
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: They're not shy about digging their heels in. You know,
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: they do believe still that they're living in the greatest
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: country in the world, I mean, the madness fucking country
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: in the world. But they'll give it a go. And
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: and a couple of them have popped up to us,
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: and while they are dis ladding themselves, they're kind of
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: just I suppose this led adjacent to the storm as a.
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: Director sucking at the teeth of the dog that is
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: melting Jesus Christ.
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: That's some analogy. But yeah, yeah, I like that.
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: There you go.
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: I like that. So the first I I I kind
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: of fell fell for he was a chap by the
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: name of got him after I had had his name open,
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: Joseph Malanowski, which ISOK, do you know what I mean?
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: That's just the detective, isn't it? Like that's easy.
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: He's getting easy to be getting as the turnover his
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: badge and shield.
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: The hold is going to hold. And he's got like
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: some African American guy who's eating a doughnut just screaming
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: at him every Monday, last girl, why are you giving it?
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: Why are you give me that? Guess? And it's just
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: the last year I've had the mayor in here.
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: What did mister Mallin ask you do?
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: So he's been double Lieutenant Downing.
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: Oh this is Lieutenant Dan. Okay, yes, sorry, yeah, this guy.
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: So he won because he's only one leg. But also
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: he he essentially he just talked about hungry.
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: I tell you what, be a bad bastard that'll call
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: you Lieutenant Dan just on account you have it one leg?
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: Do you know? Though, I think you'd have to come
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: up with something a bit more original than that. But
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: but the fact.
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: Is, but the fact that the rest of the story
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: comes out is like, okay, yes, Lieutenant Dan bang on.
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: So because he essentially when he stayed out in his boat. Yes,
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: and it's not the biggest boat in the horror, but
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: I mean it is a sailboat. You know, it's got
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: a big you know, big boom on at the whole lot.
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: Now obviously have his sail up. He's not a complete
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: fooking lunatic. But he said he stayed out in it
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: for four days during this storm because he just felt, yeah,
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: I'll be fine. So he's he but he achieved starting
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: because like kind of a reporter went and went.
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: Yes, and he was. He's one of these guys that like,
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: I won't go on TikTok Tom because I'm like a
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: forty some year old man, and I'm like, it's not
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: a place for me. Lieutenant Dan, not so much. He's
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: a TikTok superstar who was just no problem with saying,
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: I'm this guy and I'm going to stay on my
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: boat throughout a Hurricane Melton in the face of overwhelming
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: guidance by the government to seek shelter elsewhere. He was like, no,
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: I'm staying on my boat. Hence then moniker Lieutenant Dan.
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: But to the point that even the reporter was shouting
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: from the dock when the storm at all kind of
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: died away a bit. He he wasn't calling him Joe,
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: he was no. He was very matter of factly going
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: Lieutenant Dan, Lieutenant Lieutenant Like on the fifth time he
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: stuck yeah, He's like, okay, yeah.
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he lives on he lives he lives in his boat,
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: which is a very very Florida thing, very Florida thing,
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: and not for nothing as it as it later transpired,
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: Lieutenant Dan had a very Florida past, shall we say, Yeah,
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: he is known to the authorities as what they say
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: over here.
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but like he he wasn't shy of himself, like
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: the things stocked with like two weeks of food. He'd
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: like a coffee, a coffee creamer. He was even made
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: a point to say that to the reporter. No, no,
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: your round. I'm so comfortable right now out in this storm.
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: I have a coffee and the coffee creamer just to relax.
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: I'm sorted. I mean, like nobody was saying this storm
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: is going to render you a coffee list, and this
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: was more like this storm will sink your boat and
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: dash you against the rocks.
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: Well that and you know what I mean, throw other
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: boat like it's it's your ultimate demise. Like Ron White,
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: the comedian, has a great line about a hurricane where
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: a guy tied himself to a tree because he reckoned.
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: He was fit enough and strong enough and he was
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: going to lieutenant. Then the whole thing and he's his
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: thing was it's not that the wind is blown, it's
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: what the wind is blown. Yes, you could do all
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: the push ups you want, but if a fucking volvo
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: is flying through the air and hits you in the head.
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: Thanks more on this than the second Tom yes, but
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: Lieutenant Dan, he made it. Yeah, what can I say?
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: He's good, He's.
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: I like, but do you know what also again a
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: very American thing to take it upon himself. I didn't
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: bland this. I didn't expect this. You kind of did.
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: But it was God's plan for me to bring the
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: world together. Steady on it. Now he've made it to
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: the Tom and Jerry Show. I'll grant you that, But
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: bringing the world together, I don't see him down in
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: tools in the major war zone war zones around the
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: world going well, the lad with one legs, you know.
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: The lad with one leg didn't drown despite overwhelming odds.
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: We have another guy to get into here. Tom again,
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: you know, didn't take everything into consideration. But before we
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: get into him, I've got a guy in the middle.
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: I want to mention to you now I can't. I
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: looked up his name. I couldn't quite find him. It
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: was just a passing thing that I saw and I
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: went looking forward again on Twitter and I couldn't quite
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: find it. But it was a guy that was sealing
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: up his house ahead of the expected flooding. But he
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: did it exactly like what I would do. Tom. This
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: guy went out with like fifteen to sixteen tubes of
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: Tech seven.
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: Well, if it's tax seven, I mean I I'm a
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: big believer in Tax seven.
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: He went out with do you ever what's that? What's
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: that aquaseal stuff? Did you ever see the guy? And
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: it's going to the information. That's a big tank of
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: water pissing the water and he slaps it on it.
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: He went round his house with that. I swear to God, Tom,
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: I just want to give him a mention here before
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: we get into this next lad. A many as the time,
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: I have seen scenes of flooding from around the world
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: and wondered, like, how would I hope if that was
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: coming to my house and to my door. Never has,
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: hopefully never will. And every time I do, my mind
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: immediately goes to big slap of Tech seven. Yeah, big
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: slap of Tech seven. Round the doors, round the wind
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: is a day in advance, like you are going to
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: like seal yourself into your house until the storm goes.
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: So make sure you have everything in the house. Okay,
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: I'm coming in. I'm pulling the door behind me and
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: then I'm going to seal it up with Tech seven
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: and jump in a window.
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: You would be cutting off the door afterwards, like text
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: seven doesn't come off, but text seven.
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: You know, this week's show was sponsored by text seven.
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: Did you ever encountered I know, I know we're drifting
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: into mastic talk here. That's all right, that's all right
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: by me. Did you ever see the mastic And it
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: was for gutters and it was like hair and shitting it. Yeah, yeah,
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: you know the one. And it came instead of a
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: standard silicon nozzle, it had like a sort of a
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: spaded noddle wide but an inch wide. Yeah, and and
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: and when and that it was like silicon like rubber
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: like around your back, but it had hair that had
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: a horse hair and fiber and all this kind of
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: cra so that when it's set, it was like you
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: couldn't rip it.
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: It was like concrete.
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: It was a concrete yeah, yeah, yeah. And it was
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: for ceiling up cutter and all that kind of crack.
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: That's the stuff. I was always a good slab of that,
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: as best you can around your doors. At least, you know,
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: at least you feel like you're doing something. Yeah, when
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: there's the entire Atlantic Ocean bearing down on top of.
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: You, you see. That's why I'd always have a few
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: sheets of eighty always be lying around the place, the
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: board up the house and then see those giants because
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: you're not You're not. Why would you ask the windows
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: to do all the work like when you can actually
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: have some shut up in timber, you know what I mean? Yeah, yeah,
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: I'm all for it, Yeah I do. I do love
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: a good ceiling task of ceiling. I'd ceiling and fasteners
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: and wall mounted you know I could. I remember walking
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: in and I don't nerd out on a lot of things,
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: but I remember walking into the Worth workship or show
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: room slash I suppose to distributor over in by the
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: Beacon Hospital in Dublin. I had some time on my
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: hands while filming a TV show years ago, called him
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: on Ivor, and there was some time in our hands,
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: and I wandered on over there just to see what
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: they just did. Well they had a shop chair. Yeah,
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: well I had no use for not one single thing
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: in there, but what they were pushing the envelope on
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: when it came to just mountings and wall bracketing, and
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: it was just stunning, stunning stuff.
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: To witch Germans find.
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: It's fantastic. They were worth every penny.
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: But we have one of the We have one last
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: guy in the in the Milton.
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: How did he get on? Did you see the house
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: and it? Did it seal?
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: That's I want, That's why I wanted to look him
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: up to see if he if he lived or died,
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: and I can't find it, So when I'm kind of
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: hoping that you know, he did and he wasn't, just
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: like sealed in his house dead and the authorities can't
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: even get into the place because.
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: He have one pin hole he forgot.
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, if you got to he forgot to see the
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: fucking letter plate or something like that.
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: The fucker he when when a tubes would have done
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: if he bought only seven? Yeah, it's like our shroud
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: grand I'm sure I have another one knocking around somewhere
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: at home, haven't you out there? And it's gone as
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: hard as a flint, even though he's got to screw
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: down into it. Yes, I get a bit out of it.
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: Get out of it. You will not you'll break and
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: you'll break the gun before.
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: And now he's dead. But there is one other guy
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: who who who we have a good report on here.
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: He's last k Tom. You have you got him there?
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: I have again he's a templeman who I'm assuming he's
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: from the trucking industry or whatever. But he's Mohammed or
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: maybe it's a silent name. He's been called legendary. He
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: went ahead and through I suppose there are two inch straps,
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: maybe even four inch straps. He got, now a fair
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: man to get a to get an anchor in. He
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: threw four of these four or five of these big
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: straps from front house over roof. Now he's let's say
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: he's in it a bunglo could be darmer. Threw it
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: over the roof.
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Chris Finch style.
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: Anchored them down into the lawn and the driveway on
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: the front and throw them over and anchored them down
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: to basically hold his house down to the earth.
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: Right, Okay, A couple of things here, right, Yeah, Okay,
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: you've assessed that he must have been a trucker to
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: have six to eight big ratchet straps hanging about the
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: house to begin with. Possibly, yeah, possibly because like it,
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: don't go for a ratchet strap when the hurricanes coming,
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: because it's gonna be sold out. Yeah, he would have
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: been told. Okay, a couple of there, there was a
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: couple of dangers with the hurricane Tom, and we mentioned like,
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: it's not what it's not how hard it's blown, it's
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: what's blown at you.
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: One of them. One of the things was that the
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: wind could rip your house asynder. So he took that
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: as to say, and yes, in fairness, if it gets
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: underneath the roof, it'll rip the roof off, right, So
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: it straps across the roof, and he ratcheted the house
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: to the ground. Its heart's in the right place. Okay, okay.
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: The other problem with Milton was that they were expecting
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: a ten to fifteen foot storm search, which means that
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: his perfectly ratcheted down house was going to be fully underwater.
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: So I don't know that we're slagging the man for
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: thinking that he was trying to make his house not
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: blow away. I think he was trying to make his
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: house not log away.
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I'm just looking. There's so many big bits
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: of it that could have blown. Like, all well and good.
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: If the storm comes at you from the sides, that
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: the straps, you know, the front or the back of
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: the house blows at you. So if it's only blown,
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: let's say he didn't see the weather report, foll. Let's
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: say it's blown, and it blows straight at the front
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: or straight at the back. The straps may hold give
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: the house some structure. I mean it's only over the
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: ridgeboard now and touching. It's not really touching. It's going
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: to touch the tiles a little bit.
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: But but now you say the tiles time. Maybe it's
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: not a child house. Maybe it is just like a
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: flat ash vault. Uh quick build I think it could. Yeah,
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: And that ship's coming off.
• 38:08
  Speaker 2: Whether all the straps in the world are on theocon,
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: those straps are coming off on that ship.
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: That's like it that's like, oh, yeah, my my roof
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: is a trampoline.
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: You see, Yeah, you see some of the erics. God, yeah,
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: I'm just gonna, yeah, I've gotta do some roof and
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna I'm gonna change the roof of your house.
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: And all it is plywood with that shit text and.
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: Just lifted off. It's like it's like it's like a
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: dog kennel roof.
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. And you can have all the straps you want. Now,
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: if the wind blows in east or west, it's just
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: gonna shoot that house right from underneath those elastic bends
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: like nobody's business.
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: And here's the question I have to ask Tom. And
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: I tried my best to find information. All we could
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: find about this gentleman was was it was a subsequent
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: post that says everybody in the family is safe. Yeah,
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: they didn't mention the condition of the house, but I
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: can imagine it is. I saw a video al right,
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: badly damaged.
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: I think it was a daughter. The storm hadn't hit
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: it all yet, just blowing a bit, but you know,
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: and she's like, oh, looking good here, and she was
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: like hanging on to one of the straps and she's like, yeah,
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: my dad is after you know, doing whatever. Like yeah,
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: but if you're walking around with your phone, things haven't
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: gotten that hairy juice.
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: Given there there if the journeys aren't quite unnecessary yet,
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: but they're getting there. My question, Tom, is I couldn't
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: find this information. What was he stropping that too?
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: Oh he'd driven anchors down into the ground. Because now
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: I'm assuming he drove rebar into the ground, he actually
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: anchored it and possibly hilted it to the driveway, the
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: concrete driveway. Do you know he put.
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: That that's that's his best, at best, a couple of
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: inches of poor concrete over eight.
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: H four and it will if he wants to catch
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: a hold of the roof, it's got all the strength
• 39:44
  Speaker 2: in the world to rip that straight up out of it.
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: I'll'll be clean. That'll be like pulling a string out
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: of a cat's aush.
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: In fact, what he would have been better after would
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: have been, I mean, if you're going to do that
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: is to not go out and say your roof that
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: I'd say minimum thirty two degree angle. And he followed
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: the roof line and it brought it all the way
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: nearly to the footpath, the public footpath. What he would
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: have been better after and would be, Okay, you're going
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: to fuck up your guters will come over the roof
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: and come straight down, Yeah, straight down? Yeah.
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: To at least try and put a skeleton over the
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: over some bit so.
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: That the house is strapped to itself.
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah yeah yeah, But like do what he did. Should
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: think could scoot out from underneath them things, not a bother.
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: All you need is that whatever shit he has on
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: the roof, whether it's a slate or that felt stuff,
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: to move slightly and by by the straps. All that'll
• 40:35
  Speaker 2: be left is six straps just flopping out.
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: Come back next day, and it's just.
• 40:43
  Speaker 2: Like God bless him. He gave it a go and
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: he got internet fame. But there's a reason sometimes why
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: things haven't been dried before. Ger Do you know. Sometimes
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: you're an you know, an ingenious inventor. You've come up
• 40:55
  Speaker 2: with an amazing thing that's going to revolutionize the world
• 40:58
  Speaker 2: of storm safety. And other times it wasn't done before
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: because there's a fucking agent of an idea.
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: The first time, Yeah, yeah, it was a cleric in
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: of an idea to begin.
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: With, Like, that's a few a fair few hours work
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: to you know, to go about that, and then to
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: stand back and go just have some men. Probably was
• 41:17
  Speaker 2: better filling up the old truck or the car and
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: just heading Do.
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: You know this is this is this is what it is, tom.
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: This is in the age of social media. The only
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: reason we know about these people is that they showed
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: us themselves. Oh yeah, themselves. They stood they stood back
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: and looked at the house ratchets trapping down and turn
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: around to the young one and go take a picture
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: and post that. Yeah, yeah, that's posted.
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: I saw a man in the UK earlier this year
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: and much earlier this year they've gotten severe flooding. And
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: it was an area that he was that flooded just
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: on a regular basis. It was all farmland around him, Yes,
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: and he was sick of it. And I see the
• 41:58
  Speaker 2: beautiful old you know, those old cots, all style farmhouses
• 42:01
  Speaker 2: and stuff. And he said, yes, look, I can't, I can't.
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: We can't keep up to keep doing this and the
• 42:06
  Speaker 2: government to cut down too many trees, and it's flooding,
• 42:08
  Speaker 2: war and worse every year. So I have to come
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: up with something. And around his house he built a
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: mass concrete five foot.
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: High wall no notes.
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but he also allowed for pressure, so he allowed
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: for wheepholes but had some submergeable pumps. But when it
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: did come through to pump it back over, said voice,
• 42:32
  Speaker 2: And by god, he was having the time that they were.
• 42:35
  Speaker 2: They sent over a drone basically with a camera to
• 42:37
  Speaker 2: interview him or whatever and then you know, or to
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: have a look and then he would jump on zoom
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: and he was like, we're at the time of her life. Yes,
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: you know, it's just but the man had made an
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: absolute noble job of everything like that. I would say
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: to the Americans, and I've been saying it for years.
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: We have a phrase here in Ireland, and I know
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: people get a bit pussy about environmental things, but concrete
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: built is better builcher. What can I say if I
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: lived in a place that's you know, fairly get gets
• 43:07
  Speaker 2: a fair share of storms. If I lived in a
• 43:09
  Speaker 2: place called Hurricane Alley, yeah, I'm not going building something
• 43:16
  Speaker 2: that the dog could only deserves to be living in.
• 43:19
  Speaker 2: As you said, the dog can have a yolk sloppy
• 43:23
  Speaker 2: with the ashphalt roof, and I can see it right.
• 43:26
  Speaker 2: You can go, well Jesus not to blow down every
• 43:29
  Speaker 2: year regards of what you built. Fair enough, that's the case.
• 43:32
  Speaker 2: Grind throw up your timber, so no bother throw up
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: your timber. But my my estimation would be is that
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: you build that yoke on you can go mass concrete.
• 43:43
  Speaker 2: You put good, good rebard down into the ground. Pin
• 43:46
  Speaker 2: that thing into the ground with piles. She ain't going
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: no place, no place, no place.
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: No place, No arguments, no rouse, no rouse, no rise.
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: There's no rise about that. But I'll tell you what
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: are we saying that tom Florida is not a not
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: not a short distance way. If you are right too, were.
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: To go to Florida, I've been there a couple of
• 44:08
  Speaker 2: I've been there a couple of times via.
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: The vieroplane, and and and and and we would fly
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: there tom and that in itself might give rise to
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: a bit of a route.
• 44:19
  Speaker 2: Don't stop it would because airports and I suppose the
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: day and themselves can bring on anxiety and stresses. Can
• 44:30
  Speaker 2: you know you have enough going on? And whatnot? And personally,
• 44:34
  Speaker 2: I like to I'm a simple manager, a very simple man.
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: I think people have picked up on that at this stage.
• 44:41
  Speaker 2: I don't need a lot of trappings. I don't need
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: a lot of how would you call it figarisation? I
• 44:46
  Speaker 2: don't need much. I just need the situation to pan
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: out exactly how they told me. It will sooner be
• 44:53
  Speaker 2: able to drive the best thing and take over the
• 44:55
  Speaker 2: situation because I do have a bit of a control
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: for freak issue when it comes to a mission. But
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: I'm not allowed to do that because I don't have
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: a pilot of flcenes. But other than that, I pay
• 45:03
  Speaker 2: everything down now as you like, rolled up jocks, roll
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: up socks inside and the suitcase. We'll have no paraphernalia
• 45:09
  Speaker 2: coming with us. But when I look around and see
• 45:13
  Speaker 2: lads down there bringing the fish tank with them and
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: the kitchen sink. I get anxiety looking at that situation.
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: What we're talking about here now is how to fly.
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: The only way to fly now, there are not The
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: only way to fly is tom there are two ways
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: of fly, and you're very much on the fence of

• 45:39

• 45:44

• 45:48

  Speaker 1: and I might say, all right, well, I'm not going
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: to bring the trappings of Everton and it's a Ryan
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: Air flight, so you're not going to have a wee
• 48:25

  Speaker 2: am I to do with that rubbish? Like there's do
• 49:24
  Speaker 2: you know what? When I come off the plane and
• 49:26
  Speaker 2: I'm do you know what? I more often than not,
• 49:29
  Speaker 2: you end up striking a conversation up with an interesting
• 49:32
  Speaker 2: person or.
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: I just think the fuck not, Tom, he's talked the
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: stranger from planes.
• 49:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the people beside you typically, Yeah, I'm not going
• 49:44
  Speaker 2: to talk front and back if somebody beside me is
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: in the same zone. Like they're not. They don't have
• 49:51
  Speaker 2: a ton of ship with them, and they're not fucking
• 49:53
  Speaker 2: dragging half the fucking house with them around their neck
• 49:55
  Speaker 2: and over their back and they've got a fuck massagere
• 49:59
  Speaker 2: and before you know what, they're on their fucking nails
• 50:00
  Speaker 2: and everything else. I'm like, Jesus Christ Almighty, like, could
• 50:03
  Speaker 2: you not just tuck it together for just just just
• 50:06
  Speaker 2: zone out, just the zone out. Go, you know, go
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: to that place of stuff that needs get doing, get
• 50:11
  Speaker 2: done when you get to get home. So now you've
• 50:14
  Speaker 2: logged all that, grant, I know what needs doing when
• 50:17
  Speaker 2: I come home. I'm not gonna start reading books and
• 50:20
  Speaker 2: stuff like that. I listen to audiobooks sometimes if I'm
• 50:23
  Speaker 2: driving or whatever. But I'm gonna sit here. No, no,
• 50:27
  Speaker 2: I'll be all right.
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: This is This is as far apart as you and
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: I have ever been on it.
• 50:32
  Speaker 2: I'm sure, I'm sure I would appreciate it if I
• 50:35
  Speaker 2: thought about it at the time, But.
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: Like in the airport, time would you not buy a
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: wee book because.
• 50:42
  Speaker 2: Because they charged three times the fucking price for the
• 50:44
  Speaker 2: thing in the book and get number I want. I
• 50:47
  Speaker 2: did one one time I bought it. I didn't think
• 50:50
  Speaker 2: it was like a mini book from Tom Carriage or whatever.
• 50:53
  Speaker 2: He's a chef. And I read it and all I
• 50:55
  Speaker 2: did was feel hungry the entire time, like it was
• 50:57
  Speaker 2: just Jesus Christ a mighty. So it's just no, I don't,
• 51:01
  Speaker 2: I don't, I don't.
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: Well, then there's one for your time. If you feel
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: hungry the whole time, like do you do you bring
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: any food from the house witching it because you'd be
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: peculiar about it. Now you wouldn't be eating, you know
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: Pringles and Harry Bow the whole way. Would you not
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: like have like beef jerky that you made yourself or
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: something like that?
• 51:16
  Speaker 2: No, no again, if it was to be this will
• 51:19
  Speaker 2: never see an inside of another country customs office, or
• 51:22
  Speaker 2: you don't have to worry about me bringing this Australia.
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: I'll have an edh by Singapore.
• 51:26
  Speaker 2: To be fair. I'll eat if they bring me something
• 51:27
  Speaker 2: on the plane, if there's something, I'll eat anything anyway,
• 51:30
  Speaker 2: I don't care like I'll eat anything. But the whole
• 51:32
  Speaker 2: thing with me there is that airports give me a
• 51:36
  Speaker 2: dose anyway, the best of time. And I think it's
• 51:38
  Speaker 2: the people at the airport.
• 51:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, No, one's favorite place to be.
• 51:42
  Speaker 2: I I'm not I'm not that. I'm not great with
• 51:44
  Speaker 2: people standing in line with big fed artist is gone?
• 51:47
  Speaker 2: What tim do you think? Go? Fly? Does I'm offer
• 51:50
  Speaker 2: the love of Christ? Of Christ above? Can I just
• 51:54
  Speaker 2: get straight on the thing and we just fly? The
• 51:56
  Speaker 2: thing just waiting around does my head and the whole
• 52:00
  Speaker 2: idea of having to try Maybe I would be better
• 52:02
  Speaker 2: served if somebody had them there for me, but herself
• 52:07
  Speaker 2: won't She'll look at me the amount of time and go,
• 52:09
  Speaker 2: will I bring it? No, don't bring any No, don't
• 52:13
  Speaker 2: bring one more thing that I have to think about.
• 52:15
  Speaker 2: Then going into this airport with his bunch of people,
• 52:18
  Speaker 2: mouth breathing all over the place, just licking the windows,
• 52:21
  Speaker 2: this is no. Let's and I get there and then
• 52:23
  Speaker 2: I just make peace with the fact that I didn't
• 52:24
  Speaker 2: bring any of the stuff, and I don't miss it.
• 52:26
  Speaker 2: Then I'm like, grant, fine, I didn't bring any ship.
• 52:28
  Speaker 2: Let's just sit here and just get to where we're going.
• 52:31
  Speaker 2: That's it.
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: Just I don't need to make it.
• 52:36
  Speaker 2: I don't need to make an event of fucking sitting down.
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: Jerry, everything you've everything you've just described me would be
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: alleviated by, you know, an error or two super Mario
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: of playing Mario Kart again.
• 52:49
  Speaker 2: Now I have to take about charging that bastard thing.
• 52:52
  Speaker 2: Bring it that with me? Did I break it? Where
• 52:54
  Speaker 2: do I put it? No? No, no, no, no, streamline everything.
• 52:58
  Speaker 2: Just let me just sit here and maybe think, oh god,
• 53:02
  Speaker 2: it would be nice. But do you know what, I
• 53:03
  Speaker 2: get off the plane and I don't have to think
• 53:05
  Speaker 2: about having that thing with me. Just streamline everything. I
• 53:09
  Speaker 2: have to charge more shit these days, cameras on phones, laptops,
• 53:15
  Speaker 2: and now I'm going to have to bring entertainment with me.
• 53:19
  Speaker 2: Christ Above, No, no, no, no, it's just too much.
• 53:22
  Speaker 2: If it was there on the plane, I'm happy enough.
• 53:24
  Speaker 2: They've got something playing, fine, I'll watch it. I don't
• 53:27
  Speaker 2: care if they don't, I'll I'll just get through it. Jure,
• 53:31
  Speaker 2: Just let me get to where I'm going. That's not
• 53:32
  Speaker 2: the purpose of my journey. Isn't so I can play
• 53:35
  Speaker 2: or be entertained. So I can get to where I'm going,
• 53:37
  Speaker 2: and what happens in that bit in between. It's fine,
• 53:40
  Speaker 2: it's fine. I won't stress about it.
