- 0:10Speaker 1: Coming to you, hopefully loud and clear. It's the Tom
- 0:14Speaker 1: and Jerry Show.
- 0:15Speaker 2: Oh lord, I think it might just be the Jerry
- 0:19Speaker 2: Show for the remainder of this, because I'm more than
- 0:21Speaker 2: happy after a gazillion episodes, finally cracked it.
- 0:28Speaker 1: Hopefully we finally cracked it. You're all very welcome along
- 0:31Speaker 1: to the Tom and Jerry Show. I'm Jeremy Bride. That's
- 0:32Speaker 1: Tomo Many. Last week's episode was beset on all sides
- 0:36Speaker 1: by technical difficulties, which left me sounding like I was
- 0:39Speaker 1: talking through me.
- 0:40Speaker 2: John Pone, Yeah, yeah, well that's exactly it. Like you
- 0:43Speaker 2: know when you give somebody a turbo edge and it
- 0:45Speaker 2: goes over the top of the poles, pulls in their
- 0:46Speaker 2: nose and everything and who yeah. And to be fair,
- 0:49Speaker 2: it was getting I didn't realize that, you know, like
- 0:52Speaker 2: when you have I suppose you know, a creaky door
- 0:56Speaker 2: or something. It's just kind of and you don't really
- 0:58Speaker 2: know how bad it is until it's down there broken off,
- 1:03Speaker 2: and like last week, last week, your voice, and there
- 1:05Speaker 2: was always so much I could do and with the
- 1:08Speaker 2: Adobe edition and what I could straighten out, but very simplistic,
- 1:15Speaker 2: just change out the.
- 1:18Speaker 1: At least Tom, we think we fixed it, like, we'll
- 1:21Speaker 1: have to wait until Thursday when we listen to the
- 1:23Speaker 1: episode back properly to see you.
- 1:25Speaker 2: I could have made it worse, Tom, I tell you
- 1:27Speaker 2: now you may have last time your edge. I won't
- 1:29Speaker 2: lie like people might go, who's this new softly silken
- 1:32Speaker 2: spoken bastard. I'm not sure. No, no, no, you. Some
- 1:37Speaker 2: people probably like the pain, you know what I mean.
- 1:38Speaker 2: There's people driving broken transits to work going who's this bastard?
- 1:43Speaker 2: I can't relate to him. He sounds like a I
- 1:46Speaker 2: don't know, like he owns a mansion or something and
- 1:49Speaker 2: drives around in Bentley's.
- 1:52Speaker 1: I'll tell you this is the truth. This is the truth,
- 1:54Speaker 1: is a quick story. This is the absolute truth. Okay.
- 1:56Speaker 1: I was being fan of Friends when I was when
- 1:58Speaker 1: I was growing up. The TV show. Yeah, I can
- 2:01Speaker 1: care less if anybody likes me, but as a big fan.
- 2:04Speaker 2: It was a great show. What are you talking about
- 2:07Speaker 2: at the time? Nothing.
- 2:09Speaker 1: I won't hear a bad words said about it. But
- 2:11Speaker 1: if you remember, like what you used to watch Friends,
- 2:13Speaker 1: and you used to watch Friends on your TV four
- 2:15Speaker 1: to three cattle gray screen didn't even have a number
- 2:18Speaker 1: for the definition of it. We didn't even question the
- 2:21Speaker 1: definition of TVs. It was color was black and white,
- 2:23Speaker 1: like that's you know, that's what it was. Jump forward
- 2:26Speaker 1: fifteen years and it started showing up on Comedy Central
- 2:31Speaker 1: And at this stage, I hadn't watched an episode of
- 2:33Speaker 1: Friends in ten years because they've been off the air.
- 2:36Speaker 1: What do you want me to do? But now it
- 2:38Speaker 1: was an ultra high depth in these big wide screen TVs,
- 2:43Speaker 1: like the big, the big TV you had at home.
- 2:46Speaker 1: And the first night I came home, you did him
- 2:48Speaker 1: home from a gig.
- 2:48Speaker 2: I bet you didn't like it.
- 2:50Speaker 1: And I sat down and here was like what I
- 2:53Speaker 1: had been so accustomed to watching on grainy vhs, count
- 2:58Speaker 1: the pixels, cattle gray TVs. And I sat down and
- 3:00Speaker 1: there's the Gang of Friends in ultra high definition, the
- 3:04Speaker 1: same height as me. And I had a couple of
- 3:06Speaker 1: points on me. I'm not gonna lie. I nearly got sick.
- 3:10Speaker 1: It was dizzy, and I couldn't understand what I was
- 3:13Speaker 1: looking at. I was. It was weird. It felt like
- 3:15Speaker 1: they were coming out of the telly at me.
- 3:17Speaker 2: Well to to voice what to double down what you're saying?
- 3:21Speaker 2: I called him to the old pair just there earlier
- 3:22Speaker 2: and they were watching and their you know modern day
- 3:26Speaker 2: television whatever it is ultra HD and they're watching Last
- 3:30Speaker 2: of the Summer Wine right right, And I got utterly
- 3:33Speaker 2: creeped out at the wrinkles composed wellies. It was like,
- 3:38Speaker 2: I can't no, this is too much. Like if anybody
- 3:43Speaker 2: dares makes Fred Dibner HD, that's that's me done. I
- 3:48Speaker 2: I can't watch no more now. There's there's too much.
- 3:50Speaker 2: I don't need to see out of my eyes into
- 3:53Speaker 2: another thing that is my eyes again. It just give
- 3:55Speaker 2: me some experience that I'm actually watching the thing and
- 3:58Speaker 2: not inside in the set with them.
- 4:00Speaker 1: Come on, yeah, it's it's unsettling. And I can imagine
- 4:03Speaker 1: Last of the Summer Wine. It's unsettling to see ultra
- 4:07Speaker 1: HD eight K resolution of three our lads sliding and
- 4:10Speaker 1: a hill in a bad tub.
- 4:13Speaker 2: They were in the cafe, to be honest with you,
- 4:15Speaker 2: and it was just depressing how much we could see.
- 4:18Speaker 2: You could see the veins on the end of his nose,
- 4:21Speaker 2: you could see Norabati's wrinkles in her teeth. I'm like,
- 4:25Speaker 2: I'm having none of this. This is not what I
- 4:27Speaker 2: signed up for. I was al I was.
- 4:29Speaker 1: Weird about when it was the good people at Friends
- 4:31Speaker 1: and they're good looking, right, not a bad looking one
- 4:33Speaker 1: of the bunch. So I can only imagine you flip
- 4:36Speaker 1: the script and then it's Nora, Badi and co. Yeah,
- 4:40Speaker 1: but the Last of the Summer Wine, Tom, and we're
- 4:41Speaker 1: going back a bit and friends. Okay, that's twenty five
- 4:44Speaker 1: years ago, and Last of the Summer Wine is nearly
- 4:46Speaker 1: thirty forty years ago. So how about something a little
- 4:48Speaker 1: bit more current to talk about. Let's not about something
- 4:51Speaker 1: a little bit more up to date. What do you think.
- 4:53Speaker 2: Let's do it.
- 4:54Speaker 1: Let's do it. Let's do it, Tom, Let's get into
- 4:55Speaker 1: it with the weekly what have you. This is a
- 4:58Speaker 1: very complicated case, made lot of I a lot of
- 5:01Speaker 1: what have you, and a lot of strands to keep
- 5:04Speaker 1: in my head. Man.
- 5:06Speaker 2: Nice, So you're going to take the mantling this one
- 5:09Speaker 2: or no, sorry, I'll take this one. You know what,
- 5:10Speaker 2: because I got so excited. It's amazing people. No, no,
- 5:15Speaker 2: my gem right. I got sent this on Facebook, of
- 5:20Speaker 2: all things. I didn't even know I still had a
- 5:21Speaker 2: Facebook conduct sent and then my wife emailed it to me,
- 5:25Speaker 2: and then you texted to me.
- 5:27Speaker 1: Within the hour.
- 5:28Speaker 2: I would imagine when It was all when when inside
- 5:31Speaker 2: a lunch break more or less, and I went, okay, well,
- 5:34Speaker 2: there's no getting away from this. Clearly I have to
- 5:37Speaker 2: start talking about this scenario because it seems to be
- 5:40Speaker 2: on brand with me. I don't know why. I didn't
- 5:43Speaker 2: think anybody was going to I think anybody sent it
- 5:45Speaker 2: to me knew I wasn't going to be mad, do
- 5:47Speaker 2: you know what I mean? They were like, yeah, I'd
- 5:49Speaker 2: say Tom will been down for this kind of carry on.
- 5:51Speaker 2: And I like people to play with God it so
- 5:54Speaker 2: often because you know what I'm I'm a Bond fan.
- 5:56Speaker 2: I like people who genuinely want to be doctor. And
- 6:00Speaker 2: it would seem crowd waiting to hear this for a
- 6:03Speaker 2: company title. Their company name is colossal, right, I mean
- 6:07Speaker 2: that's loss You're like, you already hanging it all out.
- 6:11Speaker 2: If your name and the company colossal, there's only that
- 6:15Speaker 2: like and like you know backyard mm A crowd are
- 6:19Speaker 2: going to call themselves colossal. But because this company and
- 6:22Speaker 2: even the description, imagine setting up this online, you know,
- 6:26Speaker 2: getting your tax number and everything else, and you have
- 6:28Speaker 2: to explain what it is that you do. And the
- 6:30Speaker 2: name the description of this company is ad Extinction company,
- 6:35Speaker 2: no notes.
- 6:36Speaker 1: Yeah okay, I mean that's like John Hammond was in
- 6:41Speaker 1: the d extinction business.
- 6:43Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, right enough.
- 6:44Speaker 1: Yeah, So what are Colossal up to?
- 6:47Speaker 2: Why?
- 6:47Speaker 1: Why did Colossal poke through the the the atmosphere of
- 6:52Speaker 1: the Tom and Jerry Show this week time.
- 6:54Speaker 2: Well, what they ended up doing was they mixed a
- 6:56Speaker 2: mammoth and you heard it right, a mammoth last around
- 7:00Speaker 2: let's say maybe what twelve ten, twelve thousand years ago
- 7:03Speaker 2: and a mouse Like this is some kids story like
- 7:11Speaker 2: Christopher Robin level. What of all the things you could
- 7:15Speaker 2: across a hairy, giant elephant with you picked a mouse?
- 7:19Speaker 2: Now I know.
- 7:19Speaker 1: This, this this is some you've little to be at?
- 7:22Speaker 2: Cracked on? Oh little to be at, Jared. The company
- 7:25Speaker 2: is worth ten billion dollars ten b billion dollars, not
- 7:33Speaker 2: some like given it a crack. They have had a
- 7:36Speaker 2: bunch of lunatic investors that go, I'm not saying any
- 7:39Speaker 2: any downside to this. I mean I can I can
- 7:43Speaker 2: say this work in every which way.
- 7:44Speaker 1: So let me ask you a question. Tom. Okay, So
- 7:47Speaker 1: a company called Colossal, Yeah, mixed mouse DNA and mammoth DNA.
- 7:51Speaker 1: Now the company is called Colossal, so one can only
- 7:55Speaker 1: assume that what they've created here is some sort of
- 7:57Speaker 1: mammoth sized mouse.
- 7:59Speaker 2: No, this is the thing. I would That's exactly what
- 8:03Speaker 2: I was going to open. Genuinely, in my heart of heart,
- 8:06Speaker 2: I was going, like, Bride, get out the passport. We're
- 8:08Speaker 2: going to tell us because we have to go see
- 8:11Speaker 2: this thing. But it's not. It's a regular sized mouse
- 8:13Speaker 2: with the most badass hair, like kind of like if
- 8:15Speaker 2: you imagine Jerry, like reread the chop, that's kind of
- 8:19Speaker 2: what effect the whole thing. That the mouse itself actually
- 8:22Speaker 2: looks like Jerry when he had the big hit of hair.
- 8:25Speaker 2: And it's just a mad hearing euphemism for something, just
- 8:31Speaker 2: the mad hairy mouse.
- 8:32Speaker 1: It sounds to me, Tom, like they splice the DNA
- 8:35Speaker 1: of Jerry the Man with Jerry the cartoons.
- 8:39Speaker 2: Ah ah, yeah, yes, I knew.
- 8:46Speaker 1: That's very national lampoons thinking right there, that's some like
- 8:49Speaker 1: blood sample mix up in the lab. Chief They've made
- 8:53Speaker 1: Harry Mice, Tom with Harry Mice. To what end?
- 8:56Speaker 2: What this is the thing? That the plan is? The
- 8:59Speaker 2: plan is there go, it would seem is to engineer
- 9:02Speaker 2: Asian elephants, which are the closest relatives to mammoths. That's
- 9:07Speaker 2: where that's their end goal is to get their engineer,
- 9:09Speaker 2: one of them into becoming a big, hairy mammoth, because
- 9:13Speaker 2: there's loads of mammothy in lying around in Alaska. Like,
- 9:15Speaker 2: there's a guy he has a mine up there, the
- 9:17Speaker 2: mines for gold called the Boneyard, and he's literally got
- 9:20Speaker 2: you need to look up the boneyard, by the way.
- 9:22Speaker 2: His account, his Instagram account is amazing gear. He like
- 9:26Speaker 2: he's just plowing away and all of a sudden, like
- 9:28Speaker 2: a mammoth hip falls out of a piece of perma
- 9:32Speaker 2: frost or whatever. And of course they're easy, easy, like
- 9:35Speaker 2: I'm tripping over, I'm tripping over, kicking, I'm kicking him
- 9:40Speaker 2: out of my way down here, even with that many.
- 9:42Speaker 2: So that's the end goal, right.
- 9:45Speaker 1: You scared the way past that, you're turning up like
- 9:48Speaker 1: bug bodies and elk skeletons down your way.
- 9:52Speaker 2: Oh well, what we actually have is the joint.
- 9:54Speaker 1: He rolls back. He's big talk.
- 9:55Speaker 2: Now you know that. Have you been in the have
- 9:58Speaker 2: you been all your horses? Now? Have you been in
- 10:00Speaker 2: the National Museum in Ireland in Dublin, Yes, I have.
- 10:04Speaker 2: Have you seen the giant stag, the one they could
- 10:07Speaker 2: look at. Yeah, that was found one hundred and fifty
- 10:11Speaker 2: yards away from this house.
- 10:12Speaker 1: Okay, out of here.
- 10:14Speaker 2: Swear to God, Swear to God. Mega megafauna, megafauna. This
- 10:19Speaker 2: stuff is known as these big lads.
- 10:21Speaker 1: Do you know what I'm going to tell you? Like,
- 10:22Speaker 1: you know, people will be falling across stag skeletons on
- 10:26Speaker 1: your property. Tom will be like, oh wow, look a
- 10:28Speaker 1: real old stag skeleton. He'll be like, yeah, sure, really.
- 10:33Speaker 2: This one's still got the hair attached. Yeah, that can happen.
- 10:36Speaker 1: Are what kind of weapons were they using back in
- 10:39Speaker 1: the Stone Age? Oh?
- 10:40Speaker 2: I believe it. Look if you look closely here, because
- 10:43Speaker 2: he was probably using the sharper didge of shale, like
- 10:46Speaker 2: it's actually tempered steel. But look, I'm not anyway, but
- 10:50Speaker 2: they the colossal they're going they're calling him. He's titled
- 10:55Speaker 2: the colossal wooly Mouse. I mean, what of them? Like
- 10:58Speaker 2: if that isn't right up there with biker mice from Mars,
- 11:02Speaker 2: do you know what I mean? Or cow and chicken? Like,
- 11:05Speaker 2: how is that not going to be like a cartoon
- 11:09Speaker 2: the colossal wily Mouse.
- 11:10Speaker 1: My question Tom is like, what are they making these
- 11:13Speaker 1: things for? Because it sounds to me like they're looking
- 11:15Speaker 1: to corner the pet market. Look, it sounds to me
- 11:18Speaker 1: like they're trying to make mugway.
- 11:20Speaker 2: But it's literally like their claiming they're trying to get there.
- 11:23Speaker 2: But look, labradoodles had to be somebody's thought as well
- 11:25Speaker 2: at some point, do you know what I mean? So
- 11:28Speaker 2: I'm not saying any problems with this whatsoever. In fact,
- 11:30Speaker 2: I want to see him go further. They're not anywhere
- 11:33Speaker 2: you go through this whole any of these articles. They're
- 11:35Speaker 2: not like the plan is to say like they're like
- 11:39Speaker 2: they're saying, oh, you know, we want to get to
- 11:40Speaker 2: you know, breeding, and I think you're a hundred guess
- 11:43Speaker 2: how much they're going to sell these mice for. I'm
- 11:46Speaker 2: gonna take a shot at a mouse. A mouse, Okay, well,
- 11:49Speaker 2: I know.
- 11:50Speaker 1: I can go buy a mouse for about forty year?
- 11:51Speaker 2: O is that how it's a mouse? Even that much?
- 11:55Speaker 1: I'm I'm gauging it on the hamster end the things now,

- 13:09Speaker 1: Do you remember it was big news, it was the
- 13:11Speaker 1: weekly what have you of? The time they grew an
- 13:14Speaker 1: ear on the back of a mouse.
- 13:16Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. Did they ever do end with that?
- 13:19Speaker 2: Is that now just where we get ears from?
- 13:21Speaker 1: Or did they just do.
- 13:22Speaker 2: Full mouse and ear are staple onto the side of
- 13:24Speaker 2: a Frenchman's head? I believe, yeah, but only they both
- 13:28Speaker 2: love cheese.

- 13:38Speaker 1: a Jamie on this over here. I'm gonna look this up.
- 13:40Speaker 1: They have.
- 13:42Speaker 2: I tried to go into the business of lab mice
- 13:46Speaker 2: because I have a sister who's a professor and uses
- 13:50Speaker 2: these for the betterment of human But she can tell
- 13:52Speaker 2: you exactly why she's doing it for the betterment of humans.
- 13:55Speaker 2: There is no other goal of that lab is for
- 13:58Speaker 2: the the the better hild of humans. So you can
- 14:03Speaker 2: kind of go, okay, all right, okay, it's somebody, you know,
- 14:05Speaker 2: somebody's gotta do with. Somebody's gotta these These mice anywhere
- 14:07Speaker 2: are expensive. They have to be clean as a whistle,
- 14:10Speaker 2: you know what I mean, full six hundred points in
- 14:12Speaker 2: the leaving. Yeah, have all their confirmation, but he's still
- 14:16Speaker 2: like proper nerdy mice, like albeit there getting the chop
- 14:19Speaker 2: some point, you know what I mean, At some point
- 14:21Speaker 2: it's not gonna end well with them, or the men
- 14:23Speaker 2: may end up put a dick growing on their back
- 14:25Speaker 2: or something, do you know.
- 14:26Speaker 1: Yeah, so be it with the mouse which was known
- 14:29Speaker 1: as the vacanty mouse. That was a famous vacanty mouse.
- 14:32Speaker 1: Tom I say, oh, it was a couple of years ago.
- 14:34Speaker 1: It was nineteen ninety six, with nearly thirty years ago.
- 14:36Speaker 1: Gee is an unstoppable force. Tom Ah, Yeah, it's It's
- 14:43Speaker 1: only got like three paragraphs on Wikipedia. And it seems
- 14:46Speaker 1: like they just did it to fuck around and then
- 14:49Speaker 1: that's it. It's not common practice anymore. This is not
- 14:51Speaker 1: where you get cartilage.
- 14:52Speaker 2: Well, I think they they knew exactly because the boss
- 14:56Speaker 2: man here is his surname is Lamb inside Calostle, and
- 15:00Speaker 2: he knew exactly where he was going with this one.
- 15:02Speaker 2: Because they're still given no reasoning behind it. They just thought, well,
- 15:07Speaker 2: let's try it and see what happens. And listen to
- 15:10Speaker 2: this for a word, listen to this for a selling word, right,
- 15:14Speaker 2: adorability was not the was one of the unintended consequences
- 15:19Speaker 2: that we did not expect, did you the fuck? You
- 15:23Speaker 2: know full well you raised ten billion dollars, you're up
- 15:28Speaker 2: in ten billion dollars on the stock market. You're rotten bastard,
- 15:32Speaker 2: and you're planning selling them for thirty five hundred a piece.
- 15:34Speaker 2: You knew full well they were going to be the
- 15:38Speaker 2: mini cow or the mini Gohost. Oh you know, I
- 15:43Speaker 2: mean for what Like they don't weigh any heavier, they
- 15:48Speaker 2: don't have tusks. This is what I was raging about.
- 15:51Speaker 2: You see, I think right where, this is where, this
- 15:54Speaker 2: is why I thought it was the worstwhile thing, because
- 15:56Speaker 2: the reality is, I'd like to hear people's views on this.
- 15:58Speaker 2: I don't care about the mouse right this fucking point
- 16:00Speaker 2: that it's got long hair and stuff and that's all
- 16:02Speaker 2: it does. It doesn't have a trunk, it doesn't have tusks.
- 16:06Speaker 1: That was disappointing.
- 16:07Speaker 2: But if these motherfuckers are up to that for just
- 16:12Speaker 2: selling it to bankroll their next project, I guarantee you

- 22:06Speaker 2: I'm going through it here.
- 22:07Speaker 1: Color, Tom, the color of your eyes.
- 22:10Speaker 2: This is beyond terrifying. I'm actually gone through it here.
- 22:13Speaker 2: And there's always all these testimonies that everybody has a headshot,
- 22:17Speaker 2: you know what I mean. Like, it's not like you know,
- 22:19Speaker 2: Norah and that's low. It's everybody's an actor. Everybody's oh yes, exactly. Yeah.
- 22:25Speaker 2: So let's imagine the last Okay, so this is like
- 22:29Speaker 2: imagine at last having the eye color you always wish
- 22:32Speaker 2: you were born with. Oh yeah, okay, No, what you
- 22:37Speaker 2: can't see your own fucking eyes. You're literally looking out
- 22:40Speaker 2: of them.
- 22:40Speaker 1: I gotta tell you, Tom, it's of all the things
- 22:43Speaker 1: that anybody would want to change, I can't see eye
- 22:47Speaker 1: color being high on the list, But there are plenty
- 22:49Speaker 1: of people who do. The Good Doctor has three point
- 22:51Speaker 1: four million followers on TikTok. And this again, this is
- 22:55Speaker 1: this is not your GP up. The way that's treating
- 22:58Speaker 1: athletes for and you know, pushing their piles back in.
- 23:03Speaker 1: This is like a famous person in and of their
- 23:06Speaker 1: own right, and his patented technique for color in your
- 23:11Speaker 1: eyes has produced some quite terrifying results.
- 23:14Speaker 2: To him, I'm looking at the first flight and it
- 23:16Speaker 2: is literally Blade. It is literally Wes this nice from Blade,
- 23:21Speaker 2: Like his body.
- 23:21Speaker 1: Seems to have turned around and said, what is do
- 23:23Speaker 1: you want, oh Sam ied husky for me please?
- 23:27Speaker 2: But this, oh, my Jesus Christ, that is not an
- 23:30Speaker 2: eye color. That is see. This is where they all
- 23:33Speaker 2: go wrong. Like I'm doing. I do a bit in
- 23:35Speaker 2: the New Specialists done with now soon'll be coming out.
- 23:37Speaker 2: But it's talking about the teeth, the turkey teeth thing
- 23:39Speaker 2: and the turkey. I'm okay with people getting turkey teeth.
- 23:43Speaker 2: If you don't like your teeth, okay, fair enough. I
- 23:45Speaker 2: think you should lean into the fact that you cant
- 23:46Speaker 2: gammy teeth if you haven't, and be that guy. But anyway,
- 23:48Speaker 2: but I said, well, would you come back with things
- 23:51Speaker 2: that look like teeth, because you're coming back with Wrigley's
- 23:54Speaker 2: chewing gums jammed up into your gum like that. You
- 23:57Speaker 2: couldn't have looked at them up in the desk wind.
- 24:01Speaker 1: Well, you know, Tom, that's exactly what these people. These
- 24:03Speaker 1: people are coming back out of doctor Boco box of
- 24:06Speaker 1: Walkler's clinic with what can only be described as turkey eyes.
- 24:12Speaker 2: People are coming out way worse. Everybody I'm looking.
- 24:15Speaker 1: At looks improvement in one of them.
- 24:18Speaker 2: They all look like those before and after, you know
- 24:20Speaker 2: those ones where it's the the mugshot where somebody's oh,
- 24:24Speaker 2: you've been on crack for five years, and this is
- 24:25Speaker 2: where you're at now. So this is his selling point, right,
- 24:28Speaker 2: I'm going to just give you like he's written you
- 24:30Speaker 2: never like like I'm gonna describe how the font looks,
- 24:33Speaker 2: and this might make sense right to people. So for years,
- 24:37Speaker 2: if you lom for having crystal blue eyes that's in
- 24:40Speaker 2: bold or not in bold, vibrant green eyes that's in bold,
- 24:45Speaker 2: now you finally can perhaps you have brown eyes, but
- 24:48Speaker 2: dream of having them lighter brown bold Like warm honey?
- 24:52Speaker 2: What do you mean warm honey? The temperature of the
- 24:56Speaker 2: fucking honey does not change what are we talking about
- 24:59Speaker 2: here now, doctor brown?
- 25:00Speaker 1: Honey? Tom is a good way of saying yellow. Would
- 25:04Speaker 1: you like yellow eyes?
- 25:05Speaker 2: Do you want a liver problem for all your family
- 25:07Speaker 2: to see? Well? Why not command in here to me.
- 25:11Speaker 1: And it's it's what I can't understand, Tom, is you
- 25:15Speaker 1: sent me some of the surgery before and Apple and anybody
- 25:18Speaker 1: that gets the reveal of their eyes okay, number one.
- 25:21Speaker 1: I don't know whether it's from the surgery or whether
- 25:23Speaker 1: it's pure emotion, but they're all balling their eyes out,
- 25:26Speaker 1: crying with happiness, like they are tears running down their faces, like,
- 25:30Speaker 1: oh my god. At first, I thought, like, has this
- 25:33Speaker 1: man like cured sight loss in these people? Has he
- 25:37Speaker 1: actually given them the ability to see? No, they were
- 25:40Speaker 1: they hated their eyes so much that now that they
- 25:42Speaker 1: have them tinted, they're like overcome with emotion, like nothing
- 25:48Speaker 1: has ever happened as happy for these people. He has this,
- 25:52Speaker 1: and they do not look good. Tom. I'm sorry to
- 25:55Speaker 1: each their own, but they look terrifying. They look like
- 25:58Speaker 1: stage one zombies.
- 26:00Speaker 2: Well here's here's his colorize is actually trademark, that's literally
- 26:05Speaker 2: what he's called it.
- 26:06Speaker 1: Yeah, this is his thing. It's his thing. You can't
- 26:08Speaker 1: get this done anywhere else.
- 26:09Speaker 2: And this is what this is what worries me. Okay,
- 26:11Speaker 2: if you're in for the day or overnight, you know
- 26:14Speaker 2: what I mean. You're in a gown and all the
- 26:15Speaker 2: rest of it, and it's it's a procedure. No, it's
- 26:17Speaker 2: a it is a quick fifteen minute per eye procedure.
- 26:21Speaker 2: And here's a word that see. Okay, I'm going to
- 26:23Speaker 2: read the whole thing and see if you find the
- 26:25Speaker 2: word that I find very worrying. Colorizer trademark is a
- 26:29Speaker 2: quick fifteen minute perie procedure, typically painless, that instantly changes
- 26:35Speaker 2: the color of your eyes. You want to find the
- 26:36Speaker 2: word in there that really worries me.
- 26:38Speaker 1: Yeah, typically doing an awful lot of Yeah traffic camera
- 26:43Speaker 1: right there, that is fucking worrying.
- 26:47Speaker 2: I mean, like, he's not giving away anything, right, He's
- 26:50Speaker 2: not saying what he's doing. I'm imagining he must be layering.
- 26:54Speaker 2: He must be welding on like a filter or something.
- 26:58Speaker 2: He can't be or is the inject the eyes because
- 27:00Speaker 2: I've seen people get the white.
- 27:02Speaker 1: Eyed yeah, which seen the tattoo eyes, And I'm like, okay,
- 27:06Speaker 1: I bet enjoy going blind on.
- 27:08Speaker 2: Literally, this is not that you hate your parents, speak like, No,
- 27:12Speaker 2: this is.
- 27:13Speaker 1: He uses an advanced laser to create a circular shaped
- 27:15Speaker 1: tunnel in the corner. So he use the laser blow
- 27:18Speaker 1: a hole in your fucking eye, right, nice? Then he
- 27:21Speaker 1: uses custom made tools to extend this channel, so he
- 27:25Speaker 1: hoax at it with a bit of a pen, right,

- 27:33Speaker 1: Did you ever get like, do you ever get like
- 27:35Speaker 1: the straw of a capri and then bite it to
- 27:37Speaker 1: a bit of sharper so he can pick your teeth.
- 27:40Speaker 2: That's exactly what you doing here, would you believe it?
- 27:42Speaker 2: The outlied. Actually, he was trying to poke lace through
- 27:47Speaker 2: his boot the other day and he then found a
- 27:49Speaker 2: nail in his pocket and it wasn't sharp anymore, so
- 27:51Speaker 2: he just rubbed it really hard on a block and
- 27:54Speaker 2: then created it and.
- 27:55Speaker 1: You could call that it. Yeah, he could crame designed tool.
- 27:59Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's what.
- 28:02Speaker 1: And lastly, he injects ink into the channels, so he
- 28:05Speaker 1: makes holes in her eyes and injects ink into them

- 32:18Speaker 1: Mother Christ. But there you go, folks. Maybe we're wrong.
- 32:23Speaker 1: It happens from time to time. You can let us
- 32:25Speaker 1: know in the comments. Maybe you find these eyes incredibly
- 32:27Speaker 1: sexy and we're just like stupid idiots, or maybe we're not.
- 32:31Speaker 1: Maybe you want to have a row about it, and
- 32:33Speaker 1: if you don't have a row about that, maybe you
- 32:35Speaker 1: want to have a row about something else.
- 32:37Speaker 2: I think it's time to have a rail row. Don't stop.
- 32:44Speaker 1: We right around about this week, Tom.
- 32:46Speaker 2: A proper rail rout, because I have a feeling that
- 32:49Speaker 2: you're going to be okay with what. I'm not okay
- 32:53Speaker 2: on this one, but I took great pleasure. I took
- 32:56Speaker 2: great pleasure in because I've been in it and it's
- 33:00Speaker 2: was one of the bleakest things on the existing planet
- 33:04Speaker 2: that we know of, Like there are places in Outer
- 33:06Speaker 2: Mongolia that still whispered it the absolute carnage of jingus Can,
- 33:14Speaker 2: because that's how you're supposed to say it, jingus Can
- 33:17Speaker 2: for when he laid you know, he just pillaged and
- 33:21Speaker 2: just laid waste to lands that still crows speak of
- 33:26Speaker 2: how scary those times were. None of that compares to
- 33:31Speaker 2: walking through the crumbling shopping center, which.
- 33:35Speaker 1: You can for for out there listeners, Tom, you're not
- 33:40Speaker 1: talking about the crumbling shopping center. You're talking about the
- 33:42Speaker 1: crumbling shopping center exactly. Although it was, as you're about
- 33:46Speaker 1: to spill, crumbling.
- 33:48Speaker 2: It was crumbling. It's been crumbling since the day they
- 33:50Speaker 2: built it. It was hideous when they built it. It is.
- 33:53Speaker 2: Do you know when you look at you watch the
- 33:56Speaker 2: Snapper or one of those, or you watch like the commitments,
- 33:58Speaker 2: you go, god, fuck, Dublin was bleak. This is literally
- 34:05Speaker 2: the building embodiment of that bleakness. And I'm looking at it,
- 34:08Speaker 2: going yeah, take that ship and think down. And now
- 34:11Speaker 2: there was a great Twitter page belong to it, and
- 34:14Speaker 2: it was somebody just parodying like it was somebody. Actually
- 34:17Speaker 2: it was like it was as said to you building
- 34:19Speaker 2: and they would talk about, you know, as if it
- 34:22Speaker 2: was a popping place like it was. Death becomes you
- 34:25Speaker 2: as a building anyway, And it was utterly the saddest
- 34:28Speaker 2: thing you'd see.
- 34:28Speaker 1: But here, here's here's where the route kicked off. Is
- 34:32Speaker 1: that you were happy to see Crumlin Shop in Santa
- 34:35Speaker 1: Paul down and you can probably list ten or twelve more.
- 34:37Speaker 1: Proper is still warm. I can go to it. I
- 34:41Speaker 1: gotta tell you, Tom, I don't like to see buildings
- 34:44Speaker 1: like that disappear.
- 34:46Speaker 2: Oh listen, listen. I I love concret, you know me.
- 34:51Speaker 1: I love concrete, you know And and and I'm a
- 34:54Speaker 1: very I'm an odd person, Tom. This shouldn't be news
- 34:57Speaker 1: to anybody, because only a couple of weeks ago they
- 34:59Speaker 1: can handled the forty nine a bus and I was like, yeah,
- 35:04Speaker 1: cancel another few while they're I don't care, you know,
- 35:07Speaker 1: it means nothing to me, dead inside or whatsoever. And
- 35:10Speaker 1: I've never been in the Crumblin shopping center, but there
- 35:12Speaker 1: was something about a building like that being torn down,
- 35:15Speaker 1: and I'm like, I'm gonna get to a day where
- 35:18Speaker 1: we have none of these old shopping centers and then
- 35:20Speaker 1: there's gonna be sorrowful tears cried.
- 35:22Speaker 2: But there I'm all for pulling down new shopping centers.
- 35:27Speaker 2: Oh you're just just shopping centers in general, just to
- 35:30Speaker 2: pull them all down. But any of these eye sores
- 35:32Speaker 2: are still like while if if those machines, but it
- 35:35Speaker 2: looks like it was a shot peep of shit. Anyway,
- 35:38Speaker 2: those machines, if you've day hired them and they're all
- 35:40Speaker 2: done by twelve o'clock, I get them up on the
- 35:42Speaker 2: truck and strike them straight down to those two big
- 35:44Speaker 2: pull bag fucking towers as well and pull them.
- 35:47Speaker 1: Did you hate them?
- 35:48Speaker 2: I hate those dirty bastard and things. They serve no
- 35:50Speaker 2: purpose whatsoever. And I concrete could go fill in a
- 35:52Speaker 2: hole in someplace.
- 35:53Speaker 1: I eat the sea, make a start on the sea.
- 35:57Speaker 1: But we to the shopping center from now town to
- 36:00Speaker 1: tell you, like, you know, this is this is not
- 36:01Speaker 1: a this is not just a crumblin phenomenon, because you
- 36:05Speaker 1: will notice that you'll hear about the death of male
- 36:07Speaker 1: culture in America where all the malls of America are
- 36:10Speaker 1: being closed and shut down. And just as the malls
- 36:14Speaker 1: killed the high streets, online retail has killed in the malls.
- 36:18Speaker 1: That's just it's a dog eat dog world and it's
- 36:22Speaker 1: come over here to Ireland. A lot of air malls,
- 36:24Speaker 1: air shopping centers are closing down. The one that is
- 36:28Speaker 1: closest to my heart was done Dog Shopping Center in
- 36:30Speaker 1: dund Dog not don Dog, Maryland, the.
- 36:33Speaker 2: Dogman Dog Oh yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
- 36:36Speaker 1: And it like I have such fun memories of that
- 36:39Speaker 1: building from my childhood. That's where I've seen Santya. That's
- 36:43Speaker 1: where you went to the big Queensworth. That's where they
- 36:47Speaker 1: had a crazy prices that a bookshop that I could
- 36:50Speaker 1: just walk around with my eyes closed right now, Like
- 36:53Speaker 1: I have such a connection to that place and I
- 36:55Speaker 1: would have loved to take my kids to it, but
- 36:58Speaker 1: they don't have that anymore. They put up a big tesco. Yeah,
- 37:04Speaker 1: I mean the paradise and put up a discount retailer.
- 37:09Speaker 2: It is the place of with the licking jar. I'm sorry.
- 37:14Speaker 2: I had a handful of times that I walked through
- 37:16Speaker 2: any shopping center and it's even the older ones are
- 37:18Speaker 2: even bleaker like that, thinking crumbling there was that. I
- 37:21Speaker 2: think there was a Duns in there, and if I
- 37:24Speaker 2: remember correctly, I was in there once and I asked
- 37:26Speaker 2: a woman a question in the duns about where a
- 37:29Speaker 2: thing might be, and it was like I had slapped
- 37:33Speaker 2: her first born and she worked there, Jared, like she
- 37:35Speaker 2: was a manager. She was like, yo, you know what
- 37:38Speaker 2: I'm saying.
- 37:39Speaker 1: I'm not like you know. Just because the shopping centers
- 37:42Speaker 1: are the cathedrals of the modern world doesn't mean everybody
- 37:45Speaker 1: in them the cardinal town. This is correct, But let
- 37:48Speaker 1: me ask you a question. Let me ask you a
- 37:49Speaker 1: question before we get up to Crumblin. Where was your
- 37:51Speaker 1: local big ass shopping center back home?
- 37:55Speaker 2: I think that there was one in Clanmel. But I again,
- 37:59Speaker 2: I just couldn't understand the wandering around looking in at things,
- 38:02Speaker 2: just like the wandering is what bothered me. And it
- 38:05Speaker 2: was like this.
- 38:06Speaker 1: It was just like this.
- 38:09Speaker 2: Cattle mart of wonderers of just people.
- 38:11Speaker 1: You Were you ever, I'm all rat, Tom. Were you
- 38:14Speaker 1: ever like you say, in your late teens, early twenties
- 38:17Speaker 1: or like that, the kind of person that would go
- 38:18Speaker 1: hang around the shop and c.
- 38:20Speaker 2: No, there wasn't I was. Yeah, yeah, I most definitely wasn't.
- 38:24Speaker 2: There wasn't the mentality wasn't there in any of us.
- 38:27Speaker 1: Really.
- 38:27Speaker 2: I think maybe it was kind of a work orientated thing. Also,
- 38:30Speaker 2: there was a bit of a trick to get to one.
- 38:32Speaker 1: But what I do I mean, like not for nothing
- 38:33Speaker 1: as well, but when I was in school and the dog,
- 38:36Speaker 1: we'd go down to the shop and and you just
- 38:37Speaker 1: like you'd put through the record shop or the DVD
- 38:40Speaker 1: shop or like you know, you know, go read the
- 38:44Speaker 1: magazines and not pay for them and then just kind
- 38:46Speaker 1: of just kind of loiter, just kind of hang around.
- 38:48Speaker 1: It was just where people went. It was like a
- 38:50Speaker 1: disco in the middle of the day with no dancing
- 38:53Speaker 1: and no drink and for all people around.
- 38:56Speaker 2: Like, if you write that down on paper right now,
- 38:58Speaker 2: that sounds like the shittest.
- 38:59Speaker 1: Time, Tom, Yeah, it is bleak. But again, like I say,
- 39:02Speaker 1: I have a nostalgic feeling for and I know that
- 39:04Speaker 1: a lot of people in the Krumlin area probably spent
- 39:07Speaker 1: a lot of the time in the Krumlin shopping Center.
- 39:10Speaker 2: Oh, don't get me wrong. I had notions as a
- 39:13Speaker 2: child of actually sneaking into one, being locked into that purpose.
- 39:16Speaker 2: I spend the night in there, like I saw a.
- 39:20Speaker 1: Bigger pardon don of the dead. I got my daism
- 39:22Speaker 1: and Donald's mixed up there, don't know the dead Where
- 39:24Speaker 1: they have the shopping center all to themselves and the
- 39:26Speaker 1: zombies the right side. I'm like, wonderful, exactly where i'd
- 39:29Speaker 1: head for myself. You lock that place up, Yeah, just
- 39:32Speaker 1: shop till you drop. Everything's free A what a wonderful
- 39:35Speaker 1: place to live. I probably completely missed the point of
- 39:37Speaker 1: that movie. Yeah it shouldn't be this is great, but
- 39:41Speaker 1: I thought it was great.
- 39:42Speaker 2: But just like that, if they closed the doors and
- 39:44Speaker 2: you're the one in it and it isn't as zombie
- 39:45Speaker 2: a populist, but for whatever reason they've decided to close
- 39:47Speaker 2: the doors, you're all in it, and there's no justifi
- 39:51Speaker 2: viable reason as to why you now have to die
- 39:54Speaker 2: with all these people because you went in to look
- 39:56Speaker 2: through the window of a waterstones, You're like, for the
- 39:59Speaker 2: love and underage Jesus, if I'm gonna have to go
- 40:02Speaker 2: absolutely postal on these people around me, I would have
- 40:06Speaker 2: wanted to have been in here for a reason. And
- 40:07Speaker 2: there's no reason to be in the shop and center.
- 40:09Speaker 2: There's just people tripping over each other. And it's these
- 40:13Speaker 2: old like I'm sure that the bigger ones and the
- 40:15Speaker 2: more modern ones, I don't know, are they a better
- 40:17Speaker 2: thing and whatnot? But these old man do you know
- 40:21Speaker 2: what it is? Do you know what they are? They're
- 40:24Speaker 2: an outlet like who's second second divorce? Do you know
- 40:29Speaker 2: what I mean? Too gone now? And he's turned the
- 40:32Speaker 2: corner where he's met I don't know a sympathetic girl
- 40:35Speaker 2: in her thirties who's now trying to dress him. But
- 40:39Speaker 2: like he's got a pair of hits now, you know
- 40:42Speaker 2: what I mean, he's fifty seven, he's now she's trying
- 40:44Speaker 2: to dress him like with stuff that a guy, you know,
- 40:47Speaker 2: his skinny jeans and stuff like that. And it's just
- 40:49Speaker 2: sometimes it's just time to call it a day.
- 40:52Speaker 1: And I will say, Tom, when you go into an
- 40:54Speaker 1: old shopping center, like you're go into an old proper
- 40:56Speaker 1: old sc style shopping center and you look around and
- 41:00Speaker 1: like a vape shop that side.
- 41:03Speaker 2: But that that's all that that's that's all that's fit
- 41:05Speaker 2: to be in these things nowadays.
- 41:06Speaker 1: That should be that should be an uh uh travel agents.
- 41:10Speaker 2: But here I listen. When I I get, I get
- 41:13Speaker 2: there might be in the standard of Amida. But when
- 41:14Speaker 2: you're looking at say, okay, it's an article, you know,
- 41:16Speaker 2: a thing from the twenties, Okay, it was like the
- 41:21Speaker 2: vast majority of these things were slapped together hunks of
- 41:25Speaker 2: ship with absolutely no consideration for anything around them.
- 41:30Speaker 1: That is what I That is what I wanted to say,
- 41:32Speaker 1: because I was I bore witness to the closing of
- 41:34Speaker 1: a shopping center in Dundalk. Not the old shopping center,
- 41:38Speaker 1: the good one. There was another place called carl Village
- 41:41Speaker 1: that was built then our ended hand that redeveloped it,
- 41:44Speaker 1: and thought that this was like everybody was going to
- 41:46Speaker 1: flock to this and had one big supermarket and it
- 41:49Speaker 1: had a Super Quinn and a bunch of other shops there.
- 41:52Speaker 1: So you went to shop and Super Quinn and then
- 41:55Speaker 1: you know, you stop for coffee and you got your haircut,
- 41:57Speaker 1: You went to the chemistry, bought a record like that's
- 41:59Speaker 1: how those are, or smaller shops exist when the anchor
- 42:01Speaker 1: store is in there. But Super Queen was that one
- 42:03Speaker 1: that's shut in like the thousand and nine remember all
- 42:05Speaker 1: the Super Queens and yeah in the country shot. So
- 42:08Speaker 1: when that went nothing went in and then all of
- 42:10Speaker 1: a sudden you just have like a news agents and
- 42:12Speaker 1: a record shop and a coffee shop in the middle
- 42:17Speaker 1: and nowhere with nobody had any any purpose down there whatsoever, whatsoever,
- 42:22Speaker 1: And one by one they all just shut like it
- 42:24Speaker 1: was very sad to see. So that place opened and
- 42:26Speaker 1: shot within like five years. Here's the thing I'm going
- 42:28Speaker 1: to get out, tom when when a plays like that shot,
- 42:32Speaker 1: there's nothing you can do with it. You can't convert
- 42:34Speaker 1: that into flats.
- 42:35Speaker 2: You see this into exactly what I'm saying, right, Maybe
- 42:38Speaker 2: it's my problem done. Maybe it's my problem with the
- 42:40Speaker 2: actual building itself, like not the idea of them, because
- 42:44Speaker 2: they actually you know, it felt kind of the same way.
- 42:46Speaker 2: But at least it's got an opportunity to spring in
- 42:48Speaker 2: new the way they did one in Clamel was they
- 42:50Speaker 2: had they built a kind of a if you imagine
- 42:53Speaker 2: a kind of pedestrian quarter, so at kind of a
- 42:56Speaker 2: pedestrian tea jumping that they kind of created in the
- 42:58Speaker 2: middle of the town. They built a long super queen
- 43:01Speaker 2: on one side and then all the other the other
- 43:05Speaker 2: sides of what would be the you know a capital
- 43:07Speaker 2: t had outdoor shops, do you know what I mean,
- 43:09Speaker 2: so they could survive somewhat. Now someone went down, all right,
- 43:13Speaker 2: and some of them been reinvented. But had they been
- 43:16Speaker 2: all under the one roof of some big concrete, rebarred
- 43:20Speaker 2: building that was designed with absolutely no sense of architecture
- 43:25Speaker 2: whatsoever and just all fire into one industrial end of
- 43:29Speaker 2: the town, they were goosed. At least you could fight
- 43:33Speaker 2: your corner if you're away from the actual you know
- 43:36Speaker 2: EPC that went that ship the bed like, So maybe
- 43:40Speaker 2: it's my problem with the actual physical building and it
- 43:43Speaker 2: just I'll come under my umbrella, sure I look after
- 43:46Speaker 2: a Ye you will in your hole, Yeah you will.
- 43:49Speaker 1: As soon as you're gone.
- 43:52Speaker 2: You're gone, and there everybody else because there's nothing setter
- 43:55Speaker 2: like that Crumlin shop is centered. A few times a
- 43:57Speaker 2: walked in there, it was all shot bard of duns
- 43:59Speaker 2: and it's one Texas chicken hut. Like there's literally what
- 44:05Speaker 2: it was called Texas Chicken Hut and you're walking through
- 44:07Speaker 2: all these closed there's nothing bleaker. And you're walking through
- 44:11Speaker 2: and there's like two shops in a place that has
- 44:14Speaker 2: enough units for like forty more shops.
- 44:17Speaker 1: It's like, well, isn't And I'll tell you, I'll tell
- 44:20Speaker 1: you what is somewhat bleaker than that. Tom is when
- 44:24Speaker 1: a shopping center opens and it's got like done or
- 44:27Speaker 1: whatever in it, and then you have all these coming
- 44:30Speaker 1: soon retail units coming soon, coming soon, this, coming soon that,
- 44:34Speaker 1: and that place has been there for ten years and
- 44:36Speaker 1: nothing has ever opened.
- 44:37Speaker 2: Yeah, like the sea is wearing off just from just
- 44:41Speaker 2: from weather and air conditioning. It's wearing off.
- 44:44Speaker 1: Yeah, And there's like a there's like a a decal
- 44:48Speaker 1: of a of a of a coffee shop on the windows,
- 44:50Speaker 1: and it's all starting to peel off. Like there's never
- 44:52Speaker 1: going to be coffee shopping there. It's stup of bastards.
- 44:54Speaker 2: You even know, you know the couple that are holding
- 44:56Speaker 2: hands like walking in kind of in the decal. You
- 44:59Speaker 2: know there either dead now or in old homes. You know.
- 45:03Speaker 1: Australia.
- 45:04Speaker 2: Yeah, living in Australia exactly, not even nearby. Probably got
- 45:07Speaker 2: paid in PUDs for the photo shoot.
- 45:11Speaker 1: Well, you know, I think we may bring the Crumblin
- 45:14Speaker 1: vote out in the comments for this one, because perhaps
- 45:19Speaker 1: you lived in the Krumblin area and you have very
- 45:21Speaker 1: strong opinions pro or anti the shopping center. But remember
- 45:25Speaker 1: this isn't a about Crumlin shopping Center itself, because that
- 45:28Speaker 1: place is gone. We can never bring it back. Guys.
- 45:30Speaker 1: This is about saving the few remaining shopping centers from
- 45:34Speaker 1: our childhoods that still exist in Ireland, or if you're
- 45:37Speaker 1: on Tom's side, leveling them with the ground. Either way,
