• 1:52
  Speaker 1: You get it, Tom, and you gonna tell you. The
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: nail is coming along lovely. I know you showed it
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: to me on an audio medium, so let me paint
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: all the picture. The nail is tooth like in nature.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: It is like a little baby tooth.
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: It's yeah, but it's like a baby tooth that has
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: been maintained. It's got a weird. I don't know what
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: why it's got an odd color, but I mean it's
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: possibly a touch of expanding foam. Jir, you know, there's
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: possibly a.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: Touch of infection, Gason. But listen, we'll not get into
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: it here. Now. We'll get into that now on the
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: on the on the posthumous episode, episode twenty four, when
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: I'm breaking the news to anybody that I can reach
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: within the sound of my voice, that Tom has passed away,
• 2:34

• 2:36
  Speaker 1: a hammer and now steadily went bad for eight st
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: eight weeks.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: Fellas like me, don't die of a bad finger. You
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: just let a dog chew it off. That's what you do.

• 2:47
  Speaker 1: like me, don't die of a bad finger.

• 2:56
  Speaker 2: poster for next year's tour show, and you know what,

• 5:14
  Speaker 2: Yes, uh, you're somebody.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: Well, we're having a good time it. Yeah, you know what,
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: we're having a good time Let's let's bring everybody in
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: on the joke. The big news this week is not
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Tom installing Windows. It's the fact that this week, twenty
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: nine years ago, we all installed in Windows. Tom. That
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: was the release of Windows ninety.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: Five, correct?
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: Can it be so long? It was? It was the
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: summer that uh coolly overleased Gangster's Paradise and Jamiroqui released
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: Virtual Insanity and Bill Gates give you an idea of
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: what was going on. Bill Gates released Windows ninety five
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: and changed computing as far as we were concerned forever. Yeah,
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: your thoughts, Tom, Let's get two minutes out of this.
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: Do you know what I mean? There's a lot of
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: people have probably turned off, But if you haven't, No,
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: do you know what they haven't made? Let's see what
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: these two bastards do with this. Do you know what
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: I remember being introduced to computers in It was in school,
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: secondary school, of course. And I know that the people
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: younger knows this is it's going You got introduced to that. Yes, yeah,
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: we had computer games and whatnot, but we didn't really
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: have functional type type computers on. There was no laptops
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: knocking around, There was no but all they have a
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: big picture of was the buttons had more travel on
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: them than one like the kind of button you'd have
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: to hit in an emergency stop of a machine. There
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: was like an inch of travel on the buttons. Off
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: they were up there with a typewriter.
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: The actual it was up there with like an oil derrek,
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: Like you had to really pound the button.
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: Then it was like you were trying to prime the
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: engine of something of a two stroke engine and a
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: generator with well, this is getting really conditioned, Jesus Christ.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: This yeah, yeah, this is a niche upon niche. But
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: here's the thing, Tom.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: I could never see him. I genuinely I was an
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: outful of at the time, maybe thinking fourteen with outful
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: of thoughts. I remember thinking, on, what's this bullshit? We
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: won't need these.
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: I honestly, we're gonna bring everybody up to speed, okay, because,
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: like I said, me and Tom are the protagonists of life.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: You know, we we're in our forties now, so a
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: lot of a lot of what you find folks take
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: for granted your cell phones and your Internet and all
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: this kind of crack Like we were there at the
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: cold face of it, Like we were perhaps not early adopters,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: but we were there, and we were there when Windows
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: ninety five was released. Now, I couldn't really explain to
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: you or any of the listeners of the Tom and
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: Jerry Show what Windows ninety five really is but it
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: was what made you computer go. Like you had a computer, yeah,
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: but like it wouldn't really do anything, or it wouldn't
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: do it good or fast. And it was getting into
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: a world where computers needed to be good and fast.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: The Internet was coming along. CD drives were coming along.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: CDs weren't really a thing on computers yet. Tom and
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: Bill Gates and all his bodies and Microsoft sat there
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: and said, okay, air new operating system when those ninety
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: five is going to change all that.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: Here's the thing for the most part. Did you give
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: me a tombs up? Is there a tombs up after
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: popping up on the screen? Did you do that? Have
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: you got AI turned on or something? Oh my god?
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: A toms up bubble just popped up. Oh my god,
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: it's popped up again.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: You see it there? Yeah?
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: What's that about?
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: Are you pressing?
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: No? I'm not.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: I think I give it tons up. It gives it
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: toms up?
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: Anyway, that This is how far we any rate I could.
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you why I didn't. I probably didn't regard
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: it as highly as kids are gone. What you didn't
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: think of computer? They were a baggi shite lads. And
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: this is the reality comparative to today. So if you're
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: sitting down in front of you like I am, now
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: I have the this giant apple named after a mountain
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: range in America, Tegy. It works as fast and faster
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: than I can think and wanted to do Windows ninety five.
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: Our brains back then were pretty much the same brains
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: as inside your head. The bastard thing had these buttons.
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: Like I said that, you'd pretty much punch I had
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: word and for all. In times you'dn't office Excel and whatnot,
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: you'd nearly type the shagging thing on a typewriter as
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: fast as this yew could work. I guess I get it.
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: You could go and print it out if the printer could,
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: you know, fire up and warm up and do everything
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: else that printers haven't actually advanced at all, that's at all.
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: I'm still having it in arguments with my printer.
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: But there's a couple of things here, Tom, like the
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: early computers that I would have used at school, the
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: Wang three eight six, don't you.
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: I just can't again, not.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: This is this is even like before your intels and
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: your pentames. But like they had green screens, they had
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: black screens with green right, now them they look like
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: like big game Boy screens. That's how old we're talking.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: And if you wanted to do anything.
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: On the Neo stuff straight out of Neo, yeah, yeah, exactly.
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: If you wanted to do anything like you had to
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: know prompts, like you literally had to type in like
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: it you hack, and it was like see prompt, run
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: this all this kind of shit. And then like Windows
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: ninety five, I felt, I felt came along and was
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: just like nah, just like click that button there that
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: says start, and the thing pops up and pick what
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: you want and that's it and it goes. I there
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: was Windows before, but Windows ninety five was like.
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: Oh right, okay, ah.
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: That's it. There was a there was a thing I do.
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: That was the jump in all affairs because I had
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: to kind of look backwards to look forward because that
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: was my first intro, was Windows ninety five. But when
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: I kind of saw what it was prior to that,
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: I could appreciate it. When okay, you literally had to
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: be a programmer to run a computer. And now your
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: average your average you know, idiot from the country slash
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: for the want of a less oldly worthy, but your
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: average housewife could run the computer of the family and
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: keep up finances in check.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: So it was keep finances and it was much more
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: keeper could like do his accounts on it or some such.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: So this was really like the This was really the
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: big jump from no computers to computers.
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, so I could appreciate what it was doing,
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: but looking backwards at it, it was almost like there
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: was a thing called you know, now you can build
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: a website with Squarespace, or you can build a website
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: with all these There was a thing prior to that
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: called dream Weaver, and you literally can build, but you
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: had to believe. Yeah, I think that was tune. Actually
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: I'm nearly sure that's the truth, but it was you
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: literally needed to know all the prompts to build all
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: this page. Oh my god. It was an absolute nightmare.
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: But then these ones came on. These were the leg up.
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: So I suppose Windows ninety five opened it to your
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: average Joe or Josephine having a computer at home, because
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: there was no point prior to that. You're wasted. They
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: were good for that, you know what I mean.
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: It wasn't for you. It wasn't for you. It took
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: it out of the hands of the nerds and put it.
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: Here's the thing, Tom, here's why we remember Windows ninety
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: five more than al I remember. They sold the fuck
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: out of this thing for a solid year. You could
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: not move for advertising for Windows ninety five for a
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: whole year. Forget about it. They had like the Rolling
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: Stones song. They were playing this on on on TV
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: like it was Coca Cola, Like it was like when
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: the Coca Cola truck comes into your town at Christmas.
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: That was what the Windows ninety five ad came on.
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: And it was if you stay up map and the
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: Rolling Stones are coming on, and there's getting Windows ninety
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: five ever everywhere Tom. At the time, the biggest stars
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: on the planet were the cast of Friends and Windows.
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: Microsoft had enough money to get two of them, Matthew
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: Perry and Jennifer Andison to start in it feature long
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: like Windows Tutorial.
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: Video, mother God, like that's like a Cogan and the
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: Ultimate Warrior to do it. Essentially, it's time, that's you know.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: And and it was like they and they didn't give
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: this away, Tom. They sold this in shops, the Guide
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: to Windows ninety five, starring Matthew Perry and Jennifer Aniston,
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: and they were already. They couldn't say that it was
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: Chandler and Rachel, but they fucking looked the same. And
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: I've watched a bit of it online. I'll try and
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: put some of it up and it is goddamn watch
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: it's unbelievable. Like your man Matthew Perry pouring out on
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: the concrete firm but like he's in the depths of
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: something now, he's always he he's city is always, he's
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: quite all this kind of crack. Yeah, And Jennifer Anderson
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: as pretendish doesn't know what a computer is, and there's
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: no laugh track and the jokes do.
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: Not land Jesus Christ. But it doesn't really matter, does it.
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: Like I mean, you've thrown enough money at it. They
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: were superstars at the time, so you're gone. You it
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: would push you over the line if you were like, well,
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: they actually picked two great characters from that, because if
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: they just pret they have to preak swimmer, you know,
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: you go, nobody likes him, but everybody like Matthew Perry's character.
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: Everybody everybody like that, you know, Jennifer.
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: And it was the kind of thing Tom where I
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: was like, you know, people watching this will be like, huh,
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: all right, Well, I suppose in the toss up between
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: that and doing sums on my fingers, yeah, I will
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: get ninety Windows ninety.
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: Five yeah, yeah, yeah. And anyway, I suppose it opened
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: the doorway immediately to everything else. Laptops rolled in. Then
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: you're now your phone links to your everything. Then Apple,
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: Apple had to fire up. I had to get going,
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: you know. So it was mad to see the likes
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: of Steve Jobs as the CEO of a company out
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: front of house given it.
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: I think someone can stop someone, can you know, wreck
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: connaiss on this one, Tom. But like when they were
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: launching Windows ninety five, Bill Gates.
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: Was out front center, like sorry, Bill Gates.
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: Bill Gates was front and center with it. There's a
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: video I got to post it as well. He's out
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: with his with his like at the launch party, which
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: is this big, huge thing in Las Vegas or wherever
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: it was, and he brings out his CEO, Steve Balm
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: or this other little baldy dude and they're playing the
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: Rolling Stones and the lads are like rocking. Have you
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: seen it? And it's the saddest thing you've ever seen life?
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: Right, all the money in the world cannot buy you
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: good rhythm. My absolutely, that is absolutely criminal, Like the
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: lads are just scandalous like dancing to that. But at
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: that stage you're kind of going, you know what, it's
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: like the Emperor's new clothes. Everybody's gonna get my high
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: dive and give running blows.
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: And that's just it. But I think, like, you know,
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: I want to say, like that was the start off
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: of like the tech ceo boss becoming like the spokesperson
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: for the company. And then in a couple of years time,
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: you had Steve Jobs out waving iPods around the place,
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: like who would have cared about this thing beforehand? The
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: ceo of BOSH doesn't come out and show you a
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: new washing machine. If he does, it doesn't make the news.
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: I tell you that much.
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: And I think it's set president for a lot of
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: TV shows that fellas like this show up, like the
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: likes like the Iron Man showing up being you know,
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: Tony Stark or his front, his front and center. Then
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: Musk showed up, he's front and center of his tech company.
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: Then you've you've all these fellows like Jeff Bezos. Oh
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: you were getting out normally. Then fellas stayed out of
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: the you know, stayed out of the firing line. They
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: were like, push forward, any good, look at people we
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: have there.
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: I'm just gonna say exactly, you know, but I want
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: to feel like, you know that they've had like a
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: lifetime of being like computer dogs and nerds and one
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: thing another. And then it was like, actually, you know what, No,
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: I've got Matthew Perry and the Rolling Stones money. I'm
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: gonna go out there and dance in a polo short
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: badly and people will buy.
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: It and look at it. As a direct result, I
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: think Bill Gates going. Is he the biggest landowner now
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: in America? I think he is? So he's old enough
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: windows bill.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: Bill Gates is a divisive character or politically about that?
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah he does. Yeah. I don't know much about
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: the man, but anything I seemed to read seems to
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: be a strange cat. Whatever's going on there.
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: Is uh, it's I gotta tell you. Money and computers
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: doesn't mix, Tom, That's why we're sticking with just computers.
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: Hey, before as we close off with this, why is
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: it a floppy disc here when they're never flopped. I
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: never saw one flop. I just hard little square yokes.
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: Actually they weren't even a disc. They were like a
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: little like a like a little about the size of
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: a flyer. Do you know why they called floppy discs?
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: I do, Tom, It's not funny, but I can tell you. Ah,
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: go on, then the inside of it's floppy. But you're
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: looking at is what you're looking at? What you're looking
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: at is not the disc. It's not round, is.
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: It, Tom? Square?
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: Isn't it?
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah? So why.
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: Inside it? And it's floppy as fuck?
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: Buddy, only a nerd would go Actually, when you when
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: they designed it to become yes me, buddy, No, I'm
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: not blaming you. I'm blaming them for go Like, why
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: would you give it a new name like or just
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: call it the memory card, you know, call it a
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: memory card for what it is, it's a giant memory card,
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: rather than go, well, if you knew what was actually
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: on the in on the inside, that's actually a floppy disc,
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: which is a worship name. Give it the actual an
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: official title, you know what I mean?
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: Give it?
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the square the square bit you're looking at it
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: is more like a it's like a cartridge to protect
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: the floppy disk within. So it's kind of like if
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: someone showed you a round of ammunition and called it
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: a bullet, like you'd be like, well, no, that bit
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: at the top is the bullet.
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: Don't try to make this whoa whoa, whoa whoa. Don't
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: you try and make this cool you no, no, no,
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: no no no that's it. That's it, and bring bullets
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: and legs into this. No, no, no, no. Windows ninety five.
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: I have that many doubts. But chryst a mighty But
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: you nearly think I did, you nearly think?
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: There you go? Well, there you go, folks as normal.
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: We say, what was your experience with Windows ninety five?
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: Were you in computer class like we were? I remember
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: what we were.
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: What anniversary was it?
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: Twenty ninth? I just couldn't sit on this one for
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: another year?
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: Got it?
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: We one last thing I will say from computer class.
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: We had mouse mousees, mice with balls in them with
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: the tracks them.
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well you said, yeah.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: We were warned, like we were told in assembly, do
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: not unspooled the bottom of the mouse and take the
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: ball out of it just so you can have a
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: ball to throw around it. Because that ball doesn't bounce.
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: It's a little hard thing. It's like chalk more than
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: it else. So it's useless for you for bounce and
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: purposes and mouse ease. Mice's are fifty pounds a piece
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: per euro. So we'll give you ping pong balls if
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: you'd stop rubbing the balls out of the mice.
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: I wish they had had that at our assembly. It's
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: too late, too late. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, there you are.
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: Well, Tom funny to say, Okay, we're done with Windows
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: ninety five, but we're not done with nineteen ninety five,
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: because there's a link good year Windows ninety five actually

• 20:19
  Speaker 1: that when we take a look at not not necessarily
• 20:22

• 25:26
  Speaker 1: I can't see what he's on, Tom, but it looks
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: to my eyes to be like the Howard Stern show
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: from back.
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: Yes, guess what I thought it was too?
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, it looks like that kind of set, right,

  Speaker 1: where my man Lorcan done saw it again.
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: It was like.

  Speaker 2: But nevertheless, no, dead right.
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: You didn't meet Dave Groll, buddy.

  Speaker 2: Yeah, but at the same time the same time, why
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: not you know, you know, throw a rope around, hold.
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: You advise this lad for this, for this, for this thing.
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: And the funny thing about the whole thing is like, yeah,
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: so what you met Dave Grohl? B You went on
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: about your business? You know, I met the rock. You
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: don't hear me talking about it once every six weeks?
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: What now you kind of do though? Oh yeah, go
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: back to the archives there, folks. Any rate, Dave Grohl
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: was saying in this Howard's Turn interview, We're assuming it's
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: Howard's turn. Now he pulled up to let this lad
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: into the car, which you know somewhat suspect him, but
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: mid nineties, you know, maybe you.
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: Were, because I didn't. I didn't hear that part of
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: the of the interview. What I heard was that he
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: just saw this lad because he'd been dandering. We pulled
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: up to pick him up fair enough, because in my
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: head I was going, wait, now, did you did you
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: give a lot a fuck a lift? If it was Tommon?
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: Do you know like he hadn't he been dandering back
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: and forth in his head? But do I give up music?
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: As Nirvana had come to a very abrupt end. If
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: you'll know the history of that one, you can if
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: you don't go in there. But look at court brought
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: Corton down that fairly quickly, and p forty fives were
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: given around to all the boys very quickly. So Dave
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: was scratching his whole scratching his head, driving around the
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: south of Ireland, going what am I to do with
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: myself to help with this music business? Until he saw
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: Lurk and Don Tommon and the ring A Kerry. Best
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: to look at somebody to stop on those bends. But
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: anyway Dave gral did, and he had again there that
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: I was wearing in the.
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: Art sold what was done wearing there?
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: He was wearing the Nirvana was a Kirk Copaine was
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: on it. It was it was Kirk Copaine was actually
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: on there.
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: And I and I remember seeing this T shirt in
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: the Gale Talk. It was sort of like a boy
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: yeah and white, sort of weathered stripey look and tea
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: with like Kirk Cobain's face on it and the funny here,
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: here's what I'm gonna need to see a little more
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: of it. He didn't pick him up, We didn't give
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: him a lift.
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: That's what I was. He pulled, drove off the bastard.
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: He saw the face of Kirk Cobain staring back at
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: him and Dave Grolls old words, Dave Grohl's words. He was, Oh,
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: That's when I realized that even in the arsehole and over,
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: my word's not his. Even in the arsehole and ore,
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: I couldn't escape, you know what my legacy was. I
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: couldn't escape the shadow of Nirvana. So the only thing
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: I could do was go back to Los Angeles and
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: get back to work. And that's when I went back
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: and created the Foo Fighters. And now it sounds to
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: me like he just saw the face on the T
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: shirt and it was like the kill Bill sirens, like yeah, yeah.
• 29:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and then he just sunk the boot and spun
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: off in a cloud of dust.
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: We leave in Lark and Dune just standing on the
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: side of the road going like that, Dave girl.
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: We need the full story out of Ark and Down,
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: because if the bollocks left him sitting on the side
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: of the road, I'll tell you one thing. If he's
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: not because he would seem to be a lovely fellow
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: these days, or he puts on a good show, like
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: he'll bring a lad on stage to play guitar or
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: whatever and sing a song with him. Or if he's
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: in a certain place and you know he'll sink come out,
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: keep black and tents whatever he wants you to sing.
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: He seems a lot of time for Dave, time for anybody.
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: Would like I'd say, had he picked him up, either
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: Stern or the interview whoever it was, maybe they were
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: just lax and they went, oh wow, that's the moral
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: of the story. Like you and I could not leave
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: it there. We'd go and do you leave on the
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: road or do you bring him into town? Like that's
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: why I couldn't leave it there, but you man left
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: it there so and girl didn't bring it any further
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: because he would just do you know the way the
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: Americans love love and you know a big who had
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: a story like and that sort of bit of it
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: and then I brought the lead into town. That bit
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: wouldn't food, that wouldn't that wouldn't stick well at all.
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: But for me and you, it's like, no, it the
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: most important bit actually did you bring the lead in?
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: Because if you did, fair sound if you didn't slightly
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: take my impression, work on it.
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: But they go but own sola together. He seems to
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: have social media savvy. Could make a video splicing together
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: the two stories, one from the Orkan and one from
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: Dave Growl and put it out on Twitter. So, yes,
• 31:37

  Speaker 2: and we're just going after things that we need to
• 33:59
  Speaker 2: give out about. We're in this particular occasion. I'm swinging

  Speaker 2: For the love I knew it. I knew I could
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: smell it over. I could smell it, peppermint tea.
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: Here's the thing, Tom, are you on your period?
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: I what's wrong like peppermint tea?
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: Well as it's period. I've I've said to you this
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: past couple of weeks that I've been trying to shake

  Speaker 1: the caffeine. And the long term listeners will know that
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: I came in a couple of episodes cranky as fuck
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: because I didn't have my caffeine and me and this week, Tom,
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: I finally feel just over the weekend, I finally feel

  Speaker 1: I got the monkey off my back. I was like
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: a ce DC on Saturday Night with the Wei Man,
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: and that was a great show all together, but I
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: didn't want to have to use the Jackson Croke Park.
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: And I'll tell you I was wise about that decision
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: and I want to, I didn't. I was just like,
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: I don't want And then I woke up on Sunday
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: morning afterwards, and I had a big sleep and I
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: was too late and blah blah, and I had no
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: coffee for two days and I had no coffee today,
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: and I feel like I've bust through the what do
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: you call the barrier? The wall? What do you call
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: when you're going to hold her?
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: How about shut up? How about that? What are you
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: talking about? Jesus Christ, Jerry? What is wrong with you?
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: Why would you cut caffeine out of your life? Like
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: there's so many there's actually benefits to it. I just
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: typed in benefits to coffee improve overall health. Do you

• 35:54
  Speaker 2: look probably much like the first one. It lower mortality risk,
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: I mean lower mortality risk. Understood that you know, okay
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: if you don't walk out into the middle of traffic
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: that's lowering mortality risk too. But at the same time, Jerry,
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: what are you doing? Who are you trying to impress?
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: Who are you trying to impress?
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: Do you know?
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: Tom?
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: When you put it like that, that's been the Tom
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: and Jerry Show. Ladies and gentlemen. You can like follow
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: us on Instagram. The man makes a compelling argument once
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: a Well, I'm one thing, Tom, I'm Italian, one thing. Okay,
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: it's it's it's not the drinking of the coffee here.
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: You're not gonna believe this, Tom, You're not gonna believe
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: the border Man's gonna tell you this.
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: It's not the drinking of the coffee that annoys me
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: so much. It's the pain for the damn stuff, all right,
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: because it's getting it's getting like it's getting like when
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: you're writing about and you're having a coffee, it is
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: like buying a pack of cigarettes. It's like you don't
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: get much change out of a five or four coffee.
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: So it's not like, yeah, I love a coffee and
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: it's two year o. It's got so good. It's gotten
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: so goddamn expensive, Like it's the price of a lunch
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: to have a cup of coffee, and I was out
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: all last week. I was I was in town all
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: every day last week, and I got a coffee every day.
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: And at the end of the week, I looked at
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: the card and I was like, what the hell did
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: I spend thirty two year one?
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: I know I will one hundred percent concede with you there,
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: one hundred percent. Coffee is bananas, Like it is crazy,
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: it's hidden for a pint. It the price of a pint, yes,
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: like I will, like I not that I argue with people,
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: but I know no person has a coffee shop. And
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: I was like, I know you're keeping up with the
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: Jones and ever, and I'm sure you have rates and
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: everything else, but can you justify it? And they were like, well,
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: it's the price of all the other coffee shops that
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: are coming up. And you know everything has gotten expensive
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: for USS, But do you see how mad it is
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: that you can buy your product in a bag, walk
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: around with it, throw it in the grinder and add
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: water and oat milk or whatever it is, and not
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: justifying the price of a pint. But a pint has
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: to come from a brewery in a steael cake has
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: to be rolled off by you know an angry fellow
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: with his ars hanging out.
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: Work has to be done, Work.
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: Has to be done to get this and then humped
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: through it, like I'm just saying. And you can put
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: yours in the boots of the car from the cash
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: and carry.
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: And I don't begrute anybody that's trying to make a living. No,
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: I understand that the cost of everything's gone up and
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: swan and the forth, but like it's kind of pricing
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: me out of the market, Tom, like it. I just
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: can't justify go and spending a five or a day
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: on coffee. I just can't. Okay, So I could make
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: coffee at home, Yes I could, maybe I will. But
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: while I'm making it home, I could also make just
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: a cup of peppermint tea.
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, no, no, the guts.
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: Down for the love jeez, right, because that's the thing. Okay, Tom,
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you this now. Okay, there's real talk
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: between you, me and the fifty seven listeners of the
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: Tom and Jerry Show.
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: Right, we have more than that jar. We actually are
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: very happy to say a lot board than that we
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: actually do.
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: Okay, I'm just gonna put it on Front Street every
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: now and then you'll buy a coffee and drink it
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: and it will make you want to shit yourself.
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: Now here's the thing. A good coffee first thing in
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: the morning will help the scenario. But I know what
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: you're talking about. See you're there's nearly two arguments here, right,
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: you're talking about buying it out. I'll buy no more
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: coffee out there. I swear to God. The amount of
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: disappointment I'll get it's one thing. If you charge me
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: three seventy or something and four twenty and I'm going
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: Jesus Christ. But it's an absolute home run home run
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: of a coffee. There's one and only one. As it
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: turns out, I now know the owner because I had
• 39:36
  Speaker 2: to ask. I mean, Jesus Christ is the only one.
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: I don't feel. I don't feel like I've had a
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: saddle thrown on me or you know, you know, inappropriately
• 39:44
  Speaker 2: groped as a result of paying for a coffee. It's
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: a coffee coffee place called Fetch Coffee Independent. Their coffee
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: is exactly as it's class strong and it's really nice.
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: But the amount of coffee I'll get and it is
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: otter shit and they're top dollars first so I do.
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: I'm with you on that one, but I have the
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: espresso at home. Yeah, you can't go too far around
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: with that. Yeah, it's coming about about I would say
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: about forty five cents a cup, and I'm okay.
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: And that's okay, Like you know, I don't mind that.
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: And when I have at home, that's the right. But
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: like so far, like my two main arguments with coffee
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: are it's too expensive and I don't know from one
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: coffee to the next. If I am or I'm not
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: gonna fucking bull my pants full. I do do.
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you're you're drinking some rough coffee if it's if
• 40:36
  Speaker 2: it's your if you need a Pampers when you go out,
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: do you know what I mean?
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: I'm telling you people, your listeners of the Tom and
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: Jerry show backing me up on this.
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: Okay, it sounds like that's maybe some roughige in your diet.
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: Might be maybe where where you need to start, Maybe
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: some fiber or some some patats with their skins on,
• 40:53
  Speaker 2: maybe some brown rice. Just saying, start with the mortal lives.
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: I've been told here, Tom, no lives, I've been told here.
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: Well here's the thing, Okay, open your mind, Tom. Okay,
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: if you don't like peppermint tea, maybe like green tea,
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: maybe like rubush tea. Rubush tea is nice. You know,
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: they drink down your way, Tom.
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: Hot orange, hot orange.
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe that's further down in the cork to get
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: a hot orange, which is just like heated up my wady.
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: Orange sounds Protestant one on air. I don't I don't know, no, no, no, no.
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: Hot orange is the hot orange is the football special
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: of the Southwest. I'm ia look that up. Okay, So
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: if you're down there swinging a flask of hot orange
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: of hot my wady, then you'll forgive me drinking like
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: a ruebush, which is a nice sort of fruity kind
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: of nice.
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: Up and all these teas. I tried the rubb bush.
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: I have a box of the stuff inside straight from
• 41:49
  Speaker 2: South Africa. I've tried the cameomyle tee thing with the
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: whole You know, when you've you're building a house all
• 41:58
  Speaker 2: other things, your brain won't stop going. And I was
• 42:01
  Speaker 2: given this Cama while tea by the old lady about
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: a month or two ago. Says that lock you're right out,
• 42:08
  Speaker 2: I says, will it now? Oh? Will it? Well? I'll
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: tell you something, Jerry. It didn't knock me. I fell
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: asleep as I suppose I was going to fall asleep.
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: It did no good at all at all. But the
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: weirdest dreams I've ever had, it did absolutely I think
• 42:22
  Speaker 2: I was locked inside in the fish shop or something.
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: I don't know what carry. I've taken CBD tablets to
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: knock me out, to put cameo and to cool me down,
• 42:31
