  Speaker 2: the worst show we ever covered. I'll tell you who
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: we will take it, will take it before we get
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: into the show proper. I'll tell you who doesn't mind
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: the heat is the Australians. And we've been Australian and
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: Irish Australian that we want to mention here before we
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: get into anything proper. That's right.
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: He was a lad a couple of weeks ago, saved
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: the family appleby the lad. Chap's name is I think
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: it's justin not sure, but a.
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: Carrot mcross apple Bee's exactly road Applebee's. Yes.
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: He he saved the family, swim the shore, fucking shark
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: infested shack in fested waters, saved in the whole lot.
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: He's been paraded around the world as an absolute modern
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: and he is he hero.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: He was this he was this lad. And that's not
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: a couple of weeks ago time. I think that was
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: sometime last year.
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, But he gets brought over to Ireland because they
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: want to parade him around because he does have Irish
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: heritage and what not. And they bring him into they
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: bring him into the offices in doll Air and whatnot,
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: and it's great and he's meeting Simon Henreth. He ain't
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: seen nothing yet Simon Harrath and Harris presents him with
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: a Monaghan jersey. Yeah okay, I think we established that
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: he had.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: Monahan heritage's modern connections.
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, fair enough. That's that. That made sense when
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: I saw it. And then Harris, who if you fucking
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: showed him a football, he would know what end of
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: it to fucking hold on and he's handled him. It's
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: it's a Monahan. He was just reading Autiu. He didn't
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: know what jersey it was. You knew it. You could
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: have told me it was the fucking that South Sydney
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: Rabbit o's rugby league team and he would have believed you.
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: But the cheeky fuckers. And this is was it signed
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: by you know, legends of the game that have played
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: their heart out for for Monahan? Was that maybe signed
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: by another man who saved a bunch of people in Ireland? No, jar,
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: It was signed by all the members government. They signed
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: a much what the.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: Actually niful sinel TDS signed a Mona in Jersey to
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: present to a lad who swum through shark confested water
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: to save his family. I have to tell you, Tom,
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: they'd give fucking pseudo cream iers of the wood.
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: That's like the back outrageous, as the Fellaw says, they
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: deserted to go around with a you know, a picture
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: of themselves in their wallet. Can you exactly the level,
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: the level of confidence and just just this disassociation with
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: reality that they didn't go that, you know what I mean?
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: That would have just been better off giving him the.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: Jersey, It'd be better off giving him nothing, because you
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: fourteen year old lad going to do with that?
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: You know, some lad ran down to Elvery's down the
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: road or lifestyle? Do you have mon in jerseys? We do? Great?
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: Do you have a buyer?

  Speaker 2: you know, he was a former of this lad and
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: of course a moneron man, so we want to say congratulations.
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: He deserved better than anything signed by members of the
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: p fenegel Phenofall Coalition party. We won't get political on
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: the Tom and Jerry show here, but the only thing
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: I want them to sign is resignation.
• 5:52

  Speaker 2: let's talk about summer games. Okay, But because this is
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: this is a weekly what have you? That you and
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: I seem to have willed into existence, Buddy, I genuinely
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: think we did. We have talked about this so many
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: times wouldn't it be great if they blank? And what
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: do you know? They blanked This week Tom saw the
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: launch the first the inaugural steroid Olympics.
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: Nice.
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: We have talked about this many times when we're talking
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: about track and field, we're talking about any anytime an
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: Olympic comes around the Commonwealth Games, and it's all we
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: always joke, ha, had you know what they should do?
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: Just let these lads just goose themselves up to the
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: high dough steroids. And I want to see a man
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: run one hundred meters in five seconds and then his
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: heart just burst out of his chest. I want to
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: see a man lift the most amount of weight and
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: have the teeny tiniest balls of any human being in
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: the world. I want to say, yeah, you know, I
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: want to I want to say a lady dude gymnastics,
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: when she hits the horse, the Pomel horse, he just
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: drives the four legs, but into the fucking ground.
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: She she runs her fingers through her mustache better than mine.
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: And from from air lips to billionaire's ears. Because the
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: inargirl Enhanced Games is what they call it, then they
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: can't call it the steroid Olympics. They can't call it
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: the Olympic.
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: Any of them did juice Olympics would have been amazing.
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: I am to be honest. I am looking at a
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: woman here and I believe she is from from Columbia
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: by that by that flag, and she's in the weight
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: lifting department on the fu and Jesus Christ, I can't
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: even look directly at the picture. The woman looks utterly terrifying.
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: So this is all the brainchild of do you know
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: what they say? It's the brainchild of Australian billionaire Aarons.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: I know this is the brain child of Tom and Jerry,
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: the Tom and Jerry Show.
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: Anybody would have been a sense this is a while,
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: we really have.
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: But but mister Desusa has enough money to make this happen.
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: He makes some spurious sort of Murria claim about how
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: the Olympic committee is what's the words he's kind of
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: going for here, they're against free will and they're against
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: free speech. You don't you ever notice some of these
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: fuckers when they get up on all of a sudden,
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: it's like the one thing they get worried about is
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: free speech. Like it's not like it's nothing to do
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: with this.
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: Is this even has nothing to do with free speech
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: you're talking about. It's got nothing to do like do
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: you know there are certain things though I like I
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: was poo like I wanted to see people going out
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: of a fucking mind, like you know, people people getting
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: extra retinas and everything those kind of things. But there
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: there are certain things that lads can get nabbed for,
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: like if you don't I know, a rugby player he
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: got but he potentially lost big money because he changed
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: his inhaler and he didn't he didn't know, he didn't
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: changed his inhaler. Do you know that there's certain things
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: where you're.
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: Like he was taking it through his nose on the table.
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: But they're And also I do think for recovery, I
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: allow some sort of magic for recovery. But if you're
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: straight up taking the gear like these people should be
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: taking the gear for the Enhanced Games, then that has
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: no place in the Olympics because you especially if it's
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: in combat of any sort kill somebody.
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: Like which which come to find out, this wasn't the
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: Enhanced Games. Time we were getting ready to record this
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: show and we were saying to ourselves, you know, how
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: will we how will we handle the fact that we're
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: recording this on a Monday and the show drops on
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: a Thursday. These enhanced games, like, surely they're going to
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: run for it. Nope, nope, nope, not a concerned Tom.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: One and done. They started yesterday and they finished yesterday.
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: It was a one day event taking place across like
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: masny three sports, right, three sports, Tom swimming, running and
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: weightlifting and various disciplines in the middle of all that,
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: freestyle swimming, clean and jerk lifting, deadlifts, this kind of thing.
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: But basically it was three events and it all took
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: place in one venue in where else, Tom, but the
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: capitol image shit, Las Vegas.
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: Of course I didn't even have to look it up.
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: Of course Vegas. Do you know why are the general
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: athletes from Because can I take a pop? Right if
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: I was to go for the juiciest of juicy going
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: around the place, so obviously without question, maybe politically they
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: might allow it, but then there should be a few
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: Russians in there, or shall I say, sister companies to
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: previously behind the wall.
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: Honestly, Tom, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll come into it in
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: a second. But there are athletes from twenty four countries
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: participating in this, including two gentlemen from Ireland for god, yeah, yeah.
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: What were the the Irish spice were sure? Surely weren't weightlifted?
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: Were they the word? No?
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: I know there are no. Oh, actually there's one Russian
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: that year.
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: How about that there's got Okay, let me think of
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: the juice Russian South Africans. South African's love for the juice.
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: They love it. Yeah, one one person from a No, Tom, like,
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: there's only fucking like sixty people at this whole thing. Totally,
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: this is this isn't like the Olympics that we watched.
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: This is like the taping of an episode of Gladiators.
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: So they take place in a in a little venue
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: that had a miserable little fucking four lane swimming pool
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: in it, and had a four lane running track, and
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: then I had a podium for weightlifting.
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: Okay, the sports complex somebody sports complex that they all
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: they turned the members away for one Sunday.
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: Do you know that the more people showed up to
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: watch the final of the Karate Kid to watch this here,
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: this is like the fucking rink and dink team move
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: version of anything. And of course, Tom, here's the thing
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: right on? Why wait, why do we do anything in
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: this world to make money?
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: Okay, of course yes.
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: It's just basically, you know, if Nike and Reebook and
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: Adi Das and Maxi Muscle and all these kind of
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: boys sponsor the Olympics, who sponsors the enhanced games? Steroid companies?
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: It's a sponsors, no way, Yeah, who's a sponsor?
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: Who's the steroids company?
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: It's all part funded, and it's all it's all here
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: and there. And I gotta tell you this is the
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: other thing with my man. He's been trying to get
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: this done there for a little while, but he's got
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: to help in all this, including various sponsors and partners,
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: including Donald Trump Junior. Ah. Yeah, of course, if Donald
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: Trump Junior puts his name to something, Tom, you know
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: it's quality.
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: Gee. But I'm disappointed if that's the case, because he's
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: a mad count, you know what I mean, He's from
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: a mad conton family. I'm disappointed. I would have thought
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: he would have want or have their wings been clipped
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: a little bit to get the force go at. It
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: showed that there's a discredibility in it. And come this
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: time next year, jar, we will be reporting on something
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: where some fella like a like that forearms thing out
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: of fucking street fighter shows up.
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: I just fin.
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: Starts fucking pounded people over the head before it goes justin.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: Here's the thing, right you, You are allowed to use
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: substances prohibited or outright band in other athletic endeavors. So yes,
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: you can use steroids, Tom, but you can use it
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: if it's FDA approved, if it's something that you know,
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: the American FDA Food and Drugsnociation, I want to say,
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: if they've given it the thumbs up and they say, okay,
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: you can use it. So you know the band subs
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: I know we joked about your pile there and the rugby,
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: but the band substance that got him knocked out is
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: probably something that you can buy over the counter, and
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: it's fairly harmless on the on the on the scheme
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: of things. But it will be banned by a sporting committee.
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: Not so much.
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: In the enhanced games, you're more than more than welcome
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: to use that. For example, it gives you a little
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: bit of credibility that your managers can't show up and
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: do a lot of speed and fucking running in the
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: track like you did in the nineteen thirties.
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: Now this is where. This is where the power slap
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: people need to come in. This is where Dana White
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: needs to take it to another level and go, I
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: see what you did there, lads, But let's find an
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: island with zero laws.
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah only you only stuck half her mickey in their lads, now.
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, come on, now you only showed it to it.
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: Come on, let's let's take this to an island where
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: there are no laws. Let's go to laos right, find
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: just find less fin let's go full commute on this.

• 16:18
  Speaker 2: from the stereod Olympics was Lad's tear on phone books
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: in half with that yeah, and like fucking smashing everything
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: that right in the center. There were no big headlines

  Speaker 2: I beg your pardon. One one world record was broken
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: in the swimming. Nobody really got any personal best. It
• 16:42

  Speaker 2: like like holy shit, Wow, I took a load of
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: gear for for six weeks and lead up to this thing,
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: and all of a sudden, I'm swimming like a like
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: a like a like flipper dolphin.
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: I fell in with an actual fucking like half man
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: half a swordfish. Do you know what I mean? What
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: the fuck uses is this to me? I'm guessing because

• 17:17
  Speaker 2: swimwear there tom the swim where it's not just it's
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: not just the people that are on steroids, the closer
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: on steroids as well. There's several swimsuits and runners and
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: got these and things like this that would be prohibited
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: by the Olympic committee. So you can't wear these space
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: age fucking dolphin skin swimming hats.
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: You can hear, well, I see this is where they
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: sometimes the Olympics. You're like, where do you get off?
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: Because well that's what my man Desusa was saying as well,
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: But no.
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: Where did they get off with this, we're whiter than white,
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: and you're like, I do know, are you? There's a
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: lot of people who use gear in the fucking Olympics.
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: And here's the thing. You allowed Oscar Pastorius to run
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: on fucking the bars. Yes at the Olympics. Yes, Now
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: was he running? Was he running the real Olympics or
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: was he running the special the special Olympics, because I'm
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: pretty sure he ran against legged in the Paralympics. Was
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: he in the Paralympics?
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: He was a Paralympia.
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: Ah, fair enough, that's all right. Then do you know
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: what bust him out of.
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: You know, I think I think they let him out
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: and run in the in the in the god. I
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: was going to say the proper Olympics, the World Summer Games, Olympics,
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: but I don't think he won it. And uh yeah,
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: I must look up his Wikipedia Sly, whatever became of
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: that chap.
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: They should have busted him out of jail, give him
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: some sort of mad stem cells crossed with a fish, yeah,
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: do you.
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: Know what I mean?
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: Or a frog and give him big fucking frog legs. Now,
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: now that's what we need to see, Like the X,
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: do you know what we need to see? Not the
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: I know Red Bull had the X Games, we need
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: to see the X Men Games where people have literally taken,
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: you know, being crossed and spliced in some mad crisper experiment. People,
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: you're seeing a stegosaurus fucking just barreled through would outlift
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: half of the arp yarns in life.
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: Come on, people will say we're never happy, like we
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: wanted the star at the Olympics and we got them,
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: and now we want the fucking dinosaur Olympics. But also
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: we're going to say, is this Ain't it this saying it?
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: What I'm noticing with a lot of these people here, Tom,
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: I guess it's a little sadd or as a sign
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: of the times, a lot of them have Olympic tattoos.
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: So these are like former Olympians who came back to
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: you know, either didn't make the team this year, o
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: the aging now or weakness or injury or something that's
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: hung them up. So I think that's why people are
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: there like, oh, well we didn't get any world records.
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: We didn't get it and truly impressive blah blah blah.
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, okay, but look at your competitors. There
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: are people on the downward slope of the career that
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: came over here to this as a cash crap because
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: unlike the Olympics, this ship pays. Okay, if you were
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: to break a world record at this they were going
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: to give you a million euro. If that's not an
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: incentive that those are veins full of bullpiss. I don't
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: know what is ah, but it's all people that, even
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: even the guys the two Irish guys Shane Ryan and
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: Max mccosko, our Irish Olympians, and and and they're on
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: the downward spiral of their career, downlold spiral of the career,
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: downward slope of their career. So they weren't getting their
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: place x y Z and they said, era fu, could
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: we go for the Enhanced Games? And they're older, they're
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: older dudes, Like as as this thing evolves, and I
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: do want to see it evolved, Tom, Yes, I want
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: to see people that make this their first choice. Then
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: they don't even bother going to the Olympics, just the
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: Enhanced Games for me guys.
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: And that's why I'm saying, if it follows, if it
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: follows the the trajectory, I say, remember UFC one and
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: two like a sumo wrestler was fighting like a fucking
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: judo guy. A boxer would go in and fight some
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: kung fu guy and they were all. There was no
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: weight categories. The cage was actually a cage. Nobody you didn't.
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: You could wear boots or not. You know, lads were
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: some lads were were.
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: It's unrecognizable to what we have today.
• 20:53
  Speaker 3: You could, you could head kick, you could eye gout,
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: you could fish hook. It was fucking bananas. Hence why
• 20:59
  Speaker 3: I was banning in fifty one stays. And then they
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: tied it up and kind of became one. Everybody had
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: to do the one thing, and it went fucking mad.
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: And there was a period two of mma where I
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: don't know if you ever saw like it was a
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: guy alistair OVERI was his name from Holland. Yes, you
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: should just look him up one side by side. When
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: the juice, the juice doctors come in and said no
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: more juice buys. It fucking ruined the sport. They had
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: these beds and the rockets. In the movie actually at
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: the minute Smashing Machine where he plays a real fighter
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: who was very fond of le juice, and it was
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: some of the it was the it was the pinnacle
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: of MMA. Since then it's gotten all regulators. But so
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: there there was a curve to get me like. So
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: it started off pure mad shite, right shite, and then
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: it got to a place where everybody had three necks,
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: do you know? And you're going, well, this is the
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: greatest thing. Ever, how can how can an eighteen stoneman
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: go for twenty five minutes and try and chew his
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: way through the cage at the end to the fight. Well,
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: this is the greatest sport I've ever And then now
• 22:03
  Speaker 3: it's all gone very regulated and nice, and it's like,
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna give it, give it a ship about this?
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: Well there you go. Well, I gotta tell you, Tom,
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: we'll keep an eye on the enhanced Games next year.
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: We do want to see this continue. We want to
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: see it too, and we might get goro you know.
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: Com here, listen. That's that, folks. We're gonna rock and
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: roll on with the rest of the show. You know
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: how it goes and move into the middle part of
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: the show. We don't talk about any old lad. We
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: talk about this lad.
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: Now there's that.
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: Tom's got a lad for us this week. And Tom,
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: you told me a little bit about this earlier, and
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: I was.
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: Like, nope, stop, I know, I know, and I'm I'm
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: so excited about this, like we like to get this is.
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: I will let you know, lads, if you're halfway through
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: what you're halfway through, you managed to end up in
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: the middle of this. This is a very on brand episode.
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: I may as well tell you and are this lad
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: this year or this week? He to be fit man,
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: I have loved this guy for years. Yes, he I
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: always thought he was one of the best placed characters
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: in one of my favorite TV shows from the eighties.
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: And it is, of course, a man by the name
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: of Sorrel Book, better known as Boss Hog from The
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: Dukes of Hazards Bores.
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: The bg was.
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: That was the was the old sort of big daddy
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: kind of he was the.
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he was the colonel looking guy with the big
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: what soup and he owned the Bower's nest bar and
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: grill that what's her name Daisy worked in and he
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: was he was always being foiled by the those biscut.
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: Duke Duke boys. I watched The Duke's Hazard ultra my youth.
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: I never knew this man's real name, Sorrel What is
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: that Sorrel book, Sorrel book, and I've never really seen
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: him in anything since. It wasn't that he went on
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: to have a big career after the Dukes of Hazzard.
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: But then Tom comes to me and says, don't worry
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: about his career after the Jukes of Hazard. Have a
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: look at his career.
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: Before phenomenal and even after, just just to clear up,
• 24:16
  Speaker 3: we can and come back around to that again. This
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: guy was the real deal by the way he was there,
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: And this is why I liked him so much, And
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: I didn't realize why they left him kind of carte blanche,
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: with the character a small bit like he looked super fat.
• 24:30
  Speaker 3: Now he was a small man. He looked super fat,
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: but he put padding on and stuff to make himself
• 24:34
  Speaker 3: even look more ridiculous. So he really was taking his
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: character to another level. And it wasn't just like he
• 24:40
  Speaker 3: was so well placed. The rest of them. The boys
• 24:42
  Speaker 3: were a bit too good looking, you know, Daisy. There
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: was kind of a bit of incestuous vibe going on.
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: There wasn't really sure what was happening. There was always
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: a uncle Jesse was all right, and you know, you
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: got to feel in that other characters. That was who
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: they played in other TV shows. This guy was the
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: real fucking deal and a real deal so many levels.
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: So he was born in he was actually born in Buffalo,
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: New York. Right, that's what's hilarious about this, Right, So
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: you think, oh, he's surely Louisy and a boy or
• 25:09
  Speaker 3: Florida boy or Alabama. No. No, born in Buffalo, New York.
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: This guy was a certified genius, straight up fucking genius.
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: He got uh, he got enrolled. He got enrolled. Will
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: the scholarship they sought him in Columbia University, which isn't
• 25:30
  Speaker 3: in Colombia, it's of course in New York, one of
• 25:32
  Speaker 3: the greatest universities there is. At the age of sixteen, right,
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: the age of sixteen, this guy he went on then
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: to get a master's degree in fine arts from Yale, Yes,
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: fucking Yale.
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: But your mind this is boss Hogwart talks.
• 25:50

  Speaker 2: Was up to this point, Tom, I'm like a fair
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: play there sorrel book waltunsir.
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, So he, like everybody said to off screen, like

• 26:15
  Speaker 3: kind to like back back room you know, or you know,
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: extras and stuff like that. Just a super kind, brilliant,

• 26:26
  Speaker 3: He was that good like and they were all in
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: all of him as an actor. I mean, if you're
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: going to get your master's degree in fine arts from Yale,
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: then you're you know, you're on the button and that's all.
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: When that's all well and good. He did, actually he

• 26:54
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean, and whatnot. Like it's you
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: can kind of see it all right. But here's where
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: it gets very interesting.
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: Let's have it.
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: This guy spoke five languages absolutely fluently, like a local, right,
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: and had another which one of those included Japanese. And
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: like there's there's a story on set that he him
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: and a guest actor both actually spoke fluent Japanese, right,
• 27:21
  Speaker 3: and just for the crack, they rehearsed their lines in Japanese.
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: Japanese you just to fuck with the rest of the
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: cast and crazy boys.
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: So he just to fuck with him, right. So now
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: he said he spoke so obviously spoke English, French, Japanese, Spanish, Russian,
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: and Italian perfectly.
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: French, Japanese, Spanish, Russian, and that's six.
• 27:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so that's outside of English, right, So so but
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: he fussed around and was confident with Arabic, Mandarin, Chinese, Dutch, Persian,
• 27:59
  Speaker 3: Polish and Swedish. Yeah. Yeah, so that was all well
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: and good. Right, that was all well and good.
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: You know, he's he's just what did he do with
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: these with these talents?
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: Now he was in Now there's very little documentation on
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: how on what he performed at what his roles were
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: in World War two, right, but he definitely was in
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: the US Army in World War Two. But where he
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: really came into it was when he served in the army.
• 28:29
  Speaker 3: He joined the Korean War as counter intelligence. So this
• 28:34
  Speaker 3: guy was basically he was the strategist for any spies
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: he was carrying out pow interviews. This guy was the
• 28:44
  Speaker 3: fucking frial deal. He he was a crazy duke boy.
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: He was a crazy duke boy. Yeah, Yeah, it was
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: fucking phenomenal.
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: This is boss hog, master, spy, master.
• 28:57
  Speaker 3: Spy like he was genuinely a spook, like he was spy.
• 29:01
  Speaker 3: He none of no, really didn't wouldn't go into it.
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: But anybody on set or anything like that, do you
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: know what I mean? He wasn't. He wasn't louder, but
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: when quizzed about he was like yeah, yeah, and then
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: he would just let it drop everything off and gone,
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: oh so. And he he was an anthropologist as well,
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: like hobbyist. So like he picked somebody somebody would say
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: other surname was like that book or whatever, and he
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: would go, is that with any or without an e?
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: Because where that would have come from?
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: Now?
• 29:30
  Speaker 3: And he was say, you know they he just right
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: rattled stuff off like one of these on like this
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: fucking wanted you call him like rain Man nearly level
• 29:41
  Speaker 3: would then be a super charming bloke outside of that.
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: Then he was like it was unbelievable. They would they
• 29:49
  Speaker 3: wouldn't disclose because this guy was really dug in deep
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: during the Korean War when it came to it and
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: then became they wanted the consultancy off him for the
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: Vietnam War, but he was having another it he was
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: gone full time acting at that stage.
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: Oh, like he like this is boss Hog tending the
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: crops on his farm, and like a US chopper landsdown
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: and like sorrow, we need you back in the field
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: to go back down to another we got another crazy
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: Asian wharfware. It's like, no, my time's done and I'm
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: here to I'm here to practice my lines for them
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: a new boys.
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: So he like his his roles that they were they
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: could they could only speculate because again he was counterintelligence,
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean. He was let's see I
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: A and but he was he was officially army. Wasn't
• 30:32
  Speaker 3: targeting prisoners and defectors, translating and analyzing communications and code breaking,
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: monitoring enemy intelligence activities, psychological warfare and misinform information operations,
• 30:45
  Speaker 3: security and counter espionage work.
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I gotta tell you, like, this is not
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: the first time we've heard that this happened. And like
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: Christopher Lee was famously on Our Majesty's Secret Service.
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: Roll Dall as well was another.
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: There's just something incredible to me about somebody who has
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: picked up for those skills and identified for having skills
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: that are necessary for spycraft and the ability to cold
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: bloodedly kill a man and to have all that and
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: hone it to such a degree that you are one
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: of the top CIA people, one of the top spies,
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: one of the top.
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah spooks as you call it.
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: And then you call it a day, and you say,
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: you know what, acting, That's what I'll do next.
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: When do you see he did have the he did
• 31:36
  Speaker 3: have his acting and fine Arts degree from Yale, so
• 31:40
  Speaker 3: I'm guessing they looked at him that way. And Columbia
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: so they were going, well, what do we need. We
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: need somebody who's fluent in a bunch of languages, really
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: good at communications. Do you know what I mean? Who
• 31:49
  Speaker 3: can decipher maybe local chat? Do you know what I mean?
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: When if he was listening on to led some manhand,
• 31:54
  Speaker 3: do you know what I mean? He can tell what
• 31:56
  Speaker 3: they're talking.
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: So there's not a skill many have to him.
• 31:59
  Speaker 3: No, no, no, But that's what they were probably looking at,
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: going Columbia did even for anybody who's on belie because
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: you know, like like Bill Industries was famous for just
• 32:09
  Speaker 3: Scoop and Lads, and NASA for Scoop and Lads, and
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: you know the likes of Area fifty one straight out
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: at Columbia and math man. So maybe you know that
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: wasn't his bag. He just wanted to be an actor
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: and he lo and behold. He yeah, they just dropped
• 32:25
  Speaker 3: me in and he excelled, apparently.
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: He do you think he? Do you think Bossou is
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: a body canned?
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: I wouldn't. I don't think so. I now, unless he
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: went over the edge with the waterboarding or whatever, you
• 32:37
  Speaker 3: know what I mean. But he wasn't in They won't say,
• 32:41
  Speaker 3: they won't say he wouldn't. He wasn't the most show
• 32:45
  Speaker 3: he say, army man looking guy. Even back in the day.
• 32:52
  Speaker 3: He was always a bit of a pudge. He was
• 32:54
  Speaker 3: five ft six, don't now, who's to say, Who's to
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: say he wasn't a stone lads, five foot six, Who's
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: to say he wouldn't be a five you know, a
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: five foot six stone cold fucking assassin. Because if you're
• 33:07
  Speaker 3: already at that level, like and then you can flip
• 33:10
  Speaker 3: it and turn up and be the loveliest man ever
• 33:13
  Speaker 3: while being an incredibly good actor who played a despeakable
• 33:18
  Speaker 3: character smoking see guys us these guys. Yeah, he was
• 33:25
  Speaker 3: in Fairness, he was in other stuff like he was uh,
• 33:29
  Speaker 3: he was in uh Ironside, gun Smoke, Hawaii Fi, oh
• 33:34
  Speaker 3: the Rough, Like.
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: It was a time that there was a lot of
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: stuff on tali and it will be like you want
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: to be in a bit of everthing.
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: Like I'm looking at here, there's holy shit, he's been.
• 33:43
  Speaker 3: He's actually been. He just stayed busy, jerk, do you
• 33:45
  Speaker 3: know what I mean? Now, he jumped back and forth
• 33:47
  Speaker 3: in the theater as well, like he did a fair
• 33:49
  Speaker 3: bit in the theater. Was fond of Shakespeare and monot
• 33:55
  Speaker 3: But he was the real This guy seemed to just
• 33:58
  Speaker 3: excel at whatever. Now he he was it. He was it.
• 34:03
  Speaker 3: I'm not even fully sure what in ninety sixty four
• 34:06
  Speaker 3: the Patty Duke Show was, but I don't think it
• 34:08
  Speaker 3: had anything to do with the Jude Boys. But he
• 34:10
  Speaker 3: played a character called wait to hear this for a
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: character called Gilbert Tugwell. That's be a tough name to
• 34:15
  Speaker 3: get through school with.
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: Hey Gilly Tugwell, Hey Gilly, tell me, I'm looking at
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: it here now, Tom, And I'm sorry. If you've got
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: this coming up, I'm gonna steal it on you. He
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: Boss Hogg was not Boss Hoges. This man has passed away.
• 34:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well that's sad.
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: This is how I fucking learn the boss Hog is dead.
• 34:33
  Speaker 3: He's dead, Yeah, he's dead.
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: He did a long time, by all the ends. He
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: died in nineteen ninety four. Yeah, do you think that
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: was like, you know, before he got a chance to
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: spill a secret. So do you think I'm saying like somebody.
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: I feel he may have leaned into his characters small
• 34:46
  Speaker 3: but maybe over indulged because he put on wait for
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: the character. So I'm just wondering. And you know I
• 34:51
  Speaker 3: was hoping cigars on a regular basis.
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: I gotta tell you one thing about putting nonwaight Tom.
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: It's moorish as a man on the on the upwards
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: actory of of a of a of a twelve pounds swing,
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: I can tell you now.
• 35:04
  Speaker 3: But you know yourself, right if you're the sort of
• 35:06
  Speaker 3: fellout that you you know you heard Ernold Schwarzenegger married
• 35:09
  Speaker 3: into the Kennedy's. But because he was able to hold
• 35:13
  Speaker 3: a good conversation and stuff like that, he was he
• 35:16
  Speaker 3: was accepted because he was an intelligent man, and you know,
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: he could think about things. When you think about who
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: your in laws are, you sometimes have to go She's
• 35:26
  Speaker 3: she's a lovely bit of stuff with you just could
• 35:28
  Speaker 3: get on with the old pairer, like his fucking talk
• 35:32
  Speaker 3: about like this guy probably thought he was cool and
• 35:35
  Speaker 3: the next thing he meets his way. You hear his
• 35:39
  Speaker 3: father in law's surname for one a full name, Hubert
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: Renfro Knickerbocker, Pulitzer Prize winner journalist who blew the cover
• 35:48
  Speaker 3: on all sorts of carry on with politics and everything else.
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: Oh no, I'mdellne. You definitely boss fucking But like, can
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: you imagine those conversations in nineteen ninety five?
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: Can you imagine those conversations around the the what we've
• 36:03
  Speaker 3: got around the dinner table, Like like boss Hog is
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: there and he's former fucking spook and his politic serprise
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: guy who's blowing the cover on all sorts of fucking
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: scenarios to do with war to do and Everything's like, so,
• 36:17
  Speaker 3: what did you do before you were Boss Hog? I was, Yeah,
• 36:28
  Speaker 3: let's just say there's not as many Koreans around anymore
• 36:31
  Speaker 3: as a result of me, So we're just gonna leave
• 36:34
  Speaker 3: it at that. A's that, But yeah, Hubert Renfrow Nickerbocker
• 36:37
  Speaker 3: being the father in law. Yeah, that was the story
• 36:41
  Speaker 3: of Sorlen book, and I hope it. I would imagine
• 36:44
  Speaker 3: there's not too many podcasts worldwide they're talking about him.
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: But when he came across my desk, I'm like, I
• 36:51
  Speaker 3: fucking loved this guy back in the day. I loved him.
• 36:53
  Speaker 3: He was such a bollocks. But so he was so
• 36:56
  Speaker 3: cartoonish when the boring, when the show would get a
• 36:58
  Speaker 3: bit boring or a bit flat in the spots, and
• 37:00
  Speaker 3: they cut to him like, well, let's pick me right
• 37:02
  Speaker 3: back up again, Yeah, right back up again.
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: You know, if only he brought some of the CIA
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: training into catching those crazy duke boys, it could be
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: a case of yeah, we want to yeah, yeah, on
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: the spots, I'm calling in an air strike on Couder's farm.
• 37:16
  Speaker 3: Here he just said the two boys tied to chair
• 37:20
  Speaker 3: stand that they were with only his vest on in
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: a fucking pair of jumper. Jumper. Cable's going, yeah.
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: Jumper, Cable's going to to the general League, to the well,
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: of course. Now, The Dukes of Hazard is a show
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: that myself and Tom remember finally from our youth. Don't
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: you know that we remember other things fondly from our youth?
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: Put it together On the last segment of the show
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: called we remember when when I was a young lad
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: twenty or thirty or forty years ago. I don't know
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: about your young fellow, Tom, but my kids are heading
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: on their school tours very short. What about your young one?
• 37:53
  Speaker 3: He is, and I was only talking with him the
• 37:55
  Speaker 3: other day about it. He's he's very excited. They're senior infants.
• 37:58
  Speaker 3: So they're all off to one of our many castles
• 38:01
  Speaker 3: that we have around here, and then they're after a
• 38:03
  Speaker 3: petting farm afterwards.
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: Padding farm is a wonderful place to bring somebody on
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: a school tour. Yeah, I know, school tours for our
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: American listeners out there, I suppose a school tour. What
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: we would call a school tour over here is what
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: you guys would call a field trip.
• 38:19
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: It's like take the kids from the class to a
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: museum and then take them out for something nice and
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: then something fun and then go home.
• 38:25
  Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, field trip? I mean yeah, I mean we
• 38:28
  Speaker 3: saw plenty of fields. We grew up in a country school,
• 38:30
  Speaker 3: so there was no more you couldn't go on a
• 38:32
  Speaker 3: field trip. We used to go on the odd nature
• 38:34
  Speaker 3: walk to That was when I'm guessing teachers or you
• 38:36
  Speaker 3: don't over I couldn't think of any more.
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: We were on nature walks at school as well, but
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: we weren't allowed to leave the school grounds. You're just
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: basically walking around outside looking.
• 38:44
  Speaker 3: For That makes actual sense in a lot of ways.
• 38:47
  Speaker 3: But they still do the nature walk the exact same route,
• 38:50
  Speaker 3: which actually passes my front gate. But like for now,
• 38:54
  Speaker 3: for now, yeah, yeah, for nows right and pay their paid.
• 39:00
  Speaker 3: The very man of you all at at the top
• 39:01
  Speaker 3: of it, but they the he is, he's away and
• 39:05
  Speaker 3: he's very excited. I to be fair, castles and castles
• 39:08
  Speaker 3: and pet you're going to win the bus. With all
• 39:10
  Speaker 3: the leads pulling the heads off each other, eight and sweets,
• 39:14
  Speaker 3: there won't be one healthy thing eating amongst them all.
• 39:16
  Speaker 3: And that was kind of if I remember correctly, that
• 39:18
  Speaker 3: was a lot of what I liked about school tours.
• 39:23
  Speaker 3: But they seem to vary from county to county in
• 39:26
  Speaker 3: place to place.
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: Because well, that's that's what I'd like to know, Tom,
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: I'd like to know a couple of places you went
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: on school tours. There's a couple of a couple of
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: ones that that spring out to me that I remember distinctly.
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: Fuck me that I kill ten minutes wudn't it I was.
• 39:40
  Speaker 3: I'm glad you asked me this because one sprung to
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: mind that i'd kind of forgotten about. We we went
• 39:48
  Speaker 3: to see now I'm sure he went on a couple
• 39:51
  Speaker 3: I know. We went to one Ratty Castle where they
• 39:54
  Speaker 3: had like they have an iron age, you know, an
• 39:58
  Speaker 3: iron age village that they discovered, a yes, and I
• 40:00
  Speaker 3: remember going to see that and going into tunnels and things.
• 40:04
  Speaker 3: And then we went to a place in County Clare
• 40:06
  Speaker 3: called Kragana.
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: That was a right spin for use though, was it
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: it actually was?
• 40:11
  Speaker 3: That would be a handy trek, Like that's a good
• 40:13
  Speaker 3: hour and a half. I would think, fuck acting around
• 40:15
  Speaker 3: on a bus with trying to get youngsters onto it
• 40:17
  Speaker 3: and off of it and everything else. But the purpose
• 40:20
  Speaker 3: of going to see Kragan, which I'm guessing is quite
• 40:23
  Speaker 3: near bon Ratty Castle, it was to see Saint Saint
• 40:28
  Speaker 3: Brendan's because some of our teachers were how should we say,
• 40:34
  Speaker 3: they didn't really buy into the general curriculum that was
• 40:37
  Speaker 3: put out there, Like we had one or two at
• 40:40
  Speaker 3: different points, very republican teacher teachers who who, in fairness,
• 40:45
  Speaker 3: they'd be quite likely bright over there like they did
• 40:49
  Speaker 3: an extra grind, and they were making sure we were
• 40:51
  Speaker 3: all And it turns out it would seem I think
• 40:53
  Speaker 3: my son's teaching my business. But anyway, we we got
• 40:58
  Speaker 3: brought to see same Brandon's crook right in cragg and Own,
• 41:03
  Speaker 3: and it's it's suspended in its own little Maria water,
• 41:08
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean, in its own little pond,
• 41:10
  Speaker 3: and it's it's in a if I remember correctly, a
• 41:14
  Speaker 3: glass aat room of some sort. And the story of
• 41:16
  Speaker 3: it was that it kind of proves that they were
• 41:19
  Speaker 3: making these at a certain time, and the stories were
• 41:22
  Speaker 3: around that Saint Brendan long before any Crystal Columbus turned
• 41:26
  Speaker 3: out and fucking wrecked America. Let's let's not be honest
• 41:29
  Speaker 3: to con showed up and fucking ruined it, killing all
• 41:32
  Speaker 3: around him, being a bastard, and Brendan, Sat Brendan was
• 41:37
  Speaker 3: apparently had made it already, and Vikings had made it
• 41:40
  Speaker 3: since then, even prior to that. With this apparently Tim Severn,
• 41:44
  Speaker 3: who I'm guessing if it's Tim Severn I read about.
• 41:47
  Speaker 3: Tim Severn was a UFC fighter I think, or he
• 41:49
  Speaker 3: was a former seal or something, a famous former seal. No,
• 41:55
  Speaker 3: Dan Severn, you're thinking of Tim Severn and somebody is
• 41:57
  Speaker 3: completely different. That's fair enough that one's going to be
• 42:01
  Speaker 3: and he but apparently he did it. He proved it
• 42:04
  Speaker 3: that it could be done. But at the time, right,
• 42:06
  Speaker 3: regardless of any Tim Severans or anything. I remember our
• 42:09
  Speaker 3: teachers going, yeah, Brendon of Ireland discovered America first, and
• 42:14
  Speaker 3: that's that, and don't be listening to anything. Just Clumbus. Shit, No, no,
• 42:19
  Speaker 3: Columbus just went over and killed a load of people,
• 42:21
  Speaker 3: which was just why he got the news. No, same,
• 42:24
  Speaker 3: Brenda went over, planted a couple of trees and made
• 42:28
  Speaker 3: a few people Christian and then came.
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: Back again, brought back bullfrogs and that.
• 42:32
  Speaker 3: And brought back you know and whatever. But that was
• 42:35
  Speaker 3: how it was. It was just there was no well,
• 42:38
  Speaker 3: if you think about it, there is a possibly.
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: No.
• 42:41
  Speaker 3: It was just factual. We're telling these country kids. And
• 42:43
  Speaker 3: I do remember there was a couple of right, like
• 42:45
  Speaker 3: I was contry, but there was a couple of lads
• 42:47
  Speaker 3: that were, you know, right up there fucking with the
• 42:51
  Speaker 3: Duke boys, and they were in and around the Kruk
• 42:54
  Speaker 3: people nottibly most likely Americans would flick a coin in
• 42:58
  Speaker 3: for low.
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: Of course, but I didn't, did they did?
• 43:01
  Speaker 3: Of course, the buys rain rolled up, the socks were
• 43:03
  Speaker 3: straight in, rolled up, the trousers socks up straight in.
• 43:06
  Speaker 3: It was fucking They cleaned it out, and nobody said
• 43:09
  Speaker 3: that because they were Look, maybe they're being paid to
• 43:12
  Speaker 3: do that, because they're doing it with such confidence. Maybe
• 43:14
  Speaker 3: that's got twenty pences left right in the center. They
• 43:17
  Speaker 3: were still lighted with themselves time.
• 43:19
  Speaker 2: One of my earliest memories is going on a school
• 43:21
  Speaker 2: tour and I think that I wasn't at school, but
• 43:25
  Speaker 2: like my mom went as a chaperone for my sister
• 43:27
  Speaker 2: would have been in baby infants on high and as well. Right,
• 43:30
  Speaker 2: I mean you know the way sometimes parents to get
• 43:32
  Speaker 2: roped into to go on the school tours. And so
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: my mom was going on and she could couldn't leave
• 43:36
  Speaker 2: me at home, but she got volunt went as she.
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: Got volent told. That's what that's how that happens, which
• 43:42
  Speaker 3: is she got volun told.
• 43:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I got volunt told that she was going, and
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: I got volunteerd that I was going as well. I
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: wasn't going to get leave to sit home and want
• 43:48
  Speaker 2: rainbow all day. And I remember that that went you
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: was going to corks and all this kind of crack. Yeah,
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: we went to the Carl's cigarette factory and the top
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: and I remember looking down as me mother smoked at
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: the time, and I was like, there's cigarettes, Mammy, there's cigarettes, Mammy,
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: And I get them when I get some of them, pea, Mammy.
• 44:08
  Speaker 2: And just watching the fucking twenty Carol has been boxed up.
• 44:13
  Speaker 3: Amazing, there you go, amazing. And my fourth memories and
• 44:17
  Speaker 3: I was talking with herself because we were doing this,
• 44:20
  Speaker 3: and I asked herself, where do you go? And they
• 44:21
  Speaker 3: went to kind of historical place and she went to
• 44:23
  Speaker 3: a nice school, you know, so they brought him to
• 44:25
  Speaker 3: they got to go to the nice cafe. I went.
• 44:30
  Speaker 3: I remember this little give you an insight. This is
• 44:32
  Speaker 3: a secondary school. I know I've talked at some point,
• 44:36
  Speaker 3: and maybe it's years ago at this stud because I
• 44:38
  Speaker 3: was just seeing my phone memories gone to shit. I know,
• 44:41
  Speaker 3: I talked about going to an actual week long school
• 44:43
  Speaker 3: tour to Holland slash Germany.
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: Right right, right? Who?
• 44:46
  Speaker 3: And you got so excited about alex Oskelex and stuff that. Yeah, yeah,
• 44:50
  Speaker 3: you know, but I'll give a brief snap for that
• 44:53
  Speaker 3: in a second. But I do remember and you'd call
• 44:55
  Speaker 3: it a field trip. This is in secondary school. And
• 44:57
  Speaker 3: I will give you an idea of what the government
• 44:59
  Speaker 3: were up at the time of what they expected from
• 45:02
  Speaker 3: the students of our school and what they wanted them
• 45:05
  Speaker 3: to because you know, maybe you go visit a hospital
• 45:08
  Speaker 3: or you know, a clinic to see how doctors really
• 45:11
  Speaker 3: operate in the in the real world. Well, we got
• 45:14
  Speaker 3: sent to Gleason's concrete plant up the road. And I'll
• 45:20
  Speaker 3: be honest with you, I wasn't mad at it. I wasn't, no,
• 45:24
  Speaker 3: I was. I remember looking around it with loads of
• 45:26
  Speaker 3: kids going the fuck we doing here?
• 45:27
  Speaker 2: You know, I'll tell you, And I'm like, you know,
• 45:29
  Speaker 2: secondary school tours or a different nature, like you know,
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: I feel like secondary school, like I said, it's like, hey,
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: everybody who likes to work in a box factory kind
• 45:37
  Speaker 2: of a thing. Yeah yeah, yeah, primary school tours. You
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: could fucking go anywhere. Tom. I remember, like the zoo
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: was a big one for us. We went to the
• 45:45
  Speaker 2: zoo a couple years we did. We went to the zoo,
• 45:47
  Speaker 2: yeah yeah, yeah, And we went to firms photo yeah yeah.
• 45:54
  Speaker 2: But one year and I could I could trace it
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: down to being eighty six eighty seven, the eight there thereabouts.
• 46:01
  Speaker 2: One year, Tom, we went on.
• 46:02
  Speaker 3: The dart, go away, just to go on the dart,
• 46:06
  Speaker 3: just to go.
• 46:07
  Speaker 2: On the dart. We got on the dart.
• 46:11
  Speaker 3: Right, you kicked a couple of junkies out of the way. Okay,
• 46:13
  Speaker 3: we went down.
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: Honestly, I swear I think we went like northbound from
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: Conley Station to like maybe Rahemy or somewhere fucking hell,
• 46:22
  Speaker 2: and then crossed across.
• 46:23
  Speaker 3: Kind of hunger gains. Shit was this and came back.
• 46:29
  Speaker 2: Because this was big noise at the time, Dublin Area
• 46:32
  Speaker 2: Rapid Transport. I look up when the dart opened opened,
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: and it was around about that time. And it's only
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: now that I'm thinking about it, Tom, is how all
• 46:41
  Speaker 2: the volunteers that were voluntold to come along, how they
• 46:43
  Speaker 2: got ninety primary school age culture kids onto a train
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: in one go? Because I look at the dart. It
• 46:49
  Speaker 2: doesn't fuck around. It pulls up, the doors open and
• 46:53
  Speaker 2: you get on, you go off that thing, don't mess around.
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: It puts the rappet in Dublin Area Rapid Transport. So
• 46:58
  Speaker 2: how they got us He'll dragging little kids all on
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: to that in one go, I don't know.
• 47:04
  Speaker 3: I think a gang of culture kids will be easier
• 47:06
  Speaker 3: because you can kind of be a bit rougher with them,
• 47:08
  Speaker 3: I think.
• 47:08
  Speaker 2: Do you know that?
• 47:09
  Speaker 3: I think you kind of can. And also, by the way,
• 47:12
  Speaker 3: that is the first time in my forty odd years
• 47:15
  Speaker 3: on this planet that I've heard what the dart actually
• 47:17
  Speaker 3: stands for. Really, never no idea here you go double
• 47:20
  Speaker 3: an area rapid transport. Yeah, like that really sells it
• 47:24
  Speaker 3: as if it's like one of those Japanese bullet trains. Yeah, exactly,
• 47:27
  Speaker 3: And instead it's it's fucking Thomas the tank engine castill.
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: It's a meandering carriage. We might on on on on
• 47:37
  Speaker 2: on on very frequent occasion, doesn't get word going, do
• 47:40
  Speaker 2: you know I do.
• 47:42
  Speaker 3: It's funny how things stick out in your memory, like
• 47:44
  Speaker 3: you remember getting hunted onto the dart or whatever, and
• 47:46
  Speaker 3: I can remember this is as clear, and I don't
• 47:49
  Speaker 3: remember much of my childhood, but I remember this one
• 47:51
  Speaker 3: clear thing that made me howl. And still when I
• 47:55
  Speaker 3: did the voice the other day, the small ful of
• 47:57
  Speaker 3: fucking howl too. It was my first time ever hearing
• 48:00
  Speaker 3: real what I can only imagine was either a West
• 48:02
  Speaker 3: Cork or Kerry person. And there was a school of
• 48:05
  Speaker 3: kerry kids in front of us, and we all thought,
• 48:07
  Speaker 3: with our flat you know, Southern Midland accents or flat accents,
• 48:12
  Speaker 3: that this was the funniest ship. This was better than
• 48:15
  Speaker 3: any emu or any fucking snake. I'll never forget. There
• 48:22
  Speaker 3: was this kid in front of me, and this ostrid
• 48:24
  Speaker 3: had a nest right right by the fencing. That's how
• 48:27
  Speaker 3: Chilly's ostriches were, and it stood up and this if
• 48:33
  Speaker 3: there was three nests or three eggs in it. And
• 48:36
  Speaker 3: I will remember this kid's voice. He went, just crush
• 48:39
  Speaker 3: lens the eggs. There would be good slitters. That did me.
• 48:49
  Speaker 3: I can still we were all doings and still to
• 48:53
  Speaker 3: this day, if I do it for the small ful,
• 48:55
  Speaker 3: he's like, yeah, I don't know what you're even on about,
• 48:56
  Speaker 3: but that's fucking amazing the most it And I don't
• 49:00
  Speaker 3: know if you got this.
• 49:01
  Speaker 2: But for your for your school tour, we were always
• 49:04
  Speaker 2: allowed to take like a packed lunch. Sometimes you would
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: end up in McDonald's or what not come the end. Yeah, yeah,
• 49:10
  Speaker 2: but you had to take a pack lunch. And it
• 49:11
  Speaker 2: was like the one day of the year that you
• 49:13
  Speaker 2: could just take one hundred penny sweets. Yeah, or like mars,
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: bars and crisps.
• 49:19
  Speaker 3: And stingers, the works.
• 49:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the whole lot. You could just really go.
• 49:23
  Speaker 3: Mad and you'd have a tenor in your pocket or
• 49:25
  Speaker 3: five in your pocket, and you were gone fucking buck wild.
• 49:27
  Speaker 3: But the thing I do, and I'll briefly run over
• 49:30
  Speaker 3: the because the secondary school ones varied from school to
• 49:32
  Speaker 3: school as well, Like you know, there were schools that
• 49:35
  Speaker 3: just your school went skiing. It was CRUs you know
• 49:38
  Speaker 3: what I mean. We're just about a bus that could
• 49:39
  Speaker 3: make it to where we were going, like and if
• 49:42
  Speaker 3: people ever wanted to go looking fantasia land, we went
• 49:45
  Speaker 3: to like a couple of salt mines and ship like that,
• 49:47
  Speaker 3: but we were more than anything. We just went drinking
• 49:50
  Speaker 3: on our.
• 49:51
  Speaker 2: I mean and the bus drinking on a school tour.
• 49:54
  Speaker 2: And I tell you that was no fucking fun.
• 49:56
  Speaker 3: Well, we were in Holland and the bus driver wanted
• 49:58
  Speaker 3: nothing to do with the situation. He helped us get
• 50:01
  Speaker 3: but we can't. We went like what we were like,
• 50:03
  Speaker 3: well behaved at us. We went to the pub, had
• 50:05
  Speaker 3: four pints and came back.
• 50:07
  Speaker 2: But oh, you just went to a pub.
• 50:09
  Speaker 3: Boy, We went to a pub and in in I
• 50:13
  Speaker 3: don't know, it was a mass Trick or someplace. We
• 50:15
  Speaker 3: just went to this this POxy little pub around the
• 50:18
  Speaker 3: corner on like a Wednesday. Yeah, and the bus driver
• 50:21
  Speaker 3: actually he could see the teachers inside the window at
• 50:24
  Speaker 3: the hotel and he guided us around the back of
• 50:26
  Speaker 3: the pub. It's like, where'd you go? We're in the
• 50:29
  Speaker 3: pub and his first question was which hob he wanted
• 50:34
  Speaker 3: to go. But I think the most interesting tour I
• 50:38
  Speaker 3: ever went on when I tell people about it, was
• 50:43
  Speaker 3: our all Tooboy tour, right.
• 50:46
  Speaker 2: Yes, I remember going on a couple of these things
• 50:47
  Speaker 2: as well.
• 50:48
  Speaker 3: And we went at friends we went we were all
• 50:51
  Speaker 3: all to boys, and I think it was two churches
• 50:54
  Speaker 3: came together Bench and kill Moyler. Yeah, I was a
• 50:58
  Speaker 3: kill Moiler and there was but there was a flockers.
• 51:00
  Speaker 3: There must have been a dozen of us and a
• 51:03
  Speaker 3: dozen from the other one. And we all went off
• 51:05
  Speaker 3: on the bus and the sacristans were kind of keeping
• 51:07
  Speaker 3: an eye on us. A couple of the younger priests
• 51:09
  Speaker 3: came to and I don't know today head off for
• 51:12
  Speaker 3: a couple of bints, but I remember being brought to
• 51:14
  Speaker 3: We went to the waxworks, right, and it was mind blowing.
• 51:18
  Speaker 3: And then that was just a precursor. We're allowed and
• 51:22
  Speaker 3: we're taken to McDonald's. Then yeah it Scott stuff their
• 51:25
  Speaker 3: face McDonald's. And then when we were allowed to buy sweets,
• 51:29
  Speaker 3: immediately we're told we can buy sweets now because we're
• 51:32
  Speaker 3: taking it because they didn't tell us. Now we're taking
• 51:34
  Speaker 3: it to see waiting to hear this year the Ninja
• 51:38
  Speaker 3: Turtles movie, we went ape shit. I was maybe nine,
• 51:42
  Speaker 3: maybe nine. We went ape shit.
• 51:45
  Speaker 2: The absolute last word.
• 51:48
  Speaker 3: And we went fucking watch the Turtles movie. Back out
• 51:52
  Speaker 3: a couple of more scramblers onto the bus away down there.
• 51:55
  Speaker 3: It was one of the I can remember that. It
• 51:58
  Speaker 3: was one of the most enjoyable, best cracked days because
• 52:01
  Speaker 3: you weren't at school either. Yeah, like the sacristans were
• 52:04
  Speaker 3: out ones and the priests were you young that didn't
• 52:07
  Speaker 3: give you're off the clock like in their books like
• 52:09
  Speaker 3: now you get a clip in the year if you
• 52:11
  Speaker 3: were carrying on while on the altar or whatever, like
• 52:14
  Speaker 3: or a bottic and art force going, where were you, man,
• 52:17
  Speaker 3: Jesus Christ? The bell was like, you know what I mean?
• 52:19
  Speaker 3: We trained, we practiced.
• 52:20
  Speaker 2: For with the incense, man, now you know.
• 52:23
  Speaker 3: What I mean. None of all of the priests were
• 52:25
  Speaker 3: pretty sound. One older fell, but in fairness he was
• 52:27
  Speaker 3: he was a stickler for details, but it was they
• 52:30
  Speaker 3: were all sound to the point that we're like, all right,
• 52:32
  Speaker 3: let's look, we're not your parents, but just keep your
• 52:35
  Speaker 3: shit together. We can't lose any like, yeah, let's just
• 52:39
  Speaker 3: go see the turtles. Don't fuck it up for any
• 52:41
  Speaker 3: of us, because we want to give you another one
• 52:43
  Speaker 3: of these next year or the year after whatever like that.
• 52:45
  Speaker 3: Just don't fuck it. And I don't think anybody did.
• 52:47
  Speaker 3: I don't think anybody. A couple of lads. I think
• 52:49
  Speaker 3: one lad puked as expected, you know what I mean.
• 52:52
  Speaker 3: Heaves the chocolate and he went overboard. I can remember,
• 52:57
  Speaker 3: and I brought this up. This was a bit that
• 52:59
  Speaker 3: was in a show years ago that I did, maybe
• 53:02
  Speaker 3: three years ago. I did a tour show and I
• 53:03
  Speaker 3: was talking about choky fags. I remember going into going
• 53:07
  Speaker 3: into a joke shop somewhere in the city center of Dublin.
• 53:13
  Speaker 3: I don't know where, but there was a joke shop
• 53:15
  Speaker 3: and we all, a load of us got choky fangs
• 53:18
  Speaker 3: and you could get the fags that blue healthy powder too. Yes, yes,
• 53:21
  Speaker 3: but I got choky fangs, and I remember bringing them
• 53:23
  Speaker 3: home and we're in the back of the both going
• 53:25
  Speaker 3: look smoking. The priest was like, oh, I'm actually smoking,
• 53:29
  Speaker 3: so that's okay, all right. I didn't give a fuck.
• 53:34
  Speaker 3: It was like, whatever, man, I don't care, just.
• 53:37
  Speaker 2: That I couldn't give a fuck.
• 53:38
  Speaker 3: I couldn't give a fuck. He died. That's the main thing.
• 53:41
  Speaker 2: Grand like didn't take much, didn't take much back in

  Speaker 2: get a couple of questions. We've got a question here
• 55:03
  Speaker 2: last week and we kind of saved because it was
• 55:05
  Speaker 2: enough for a question of itself down there. Could make
• 55:07
  Speaker 2: a segment out of it. It comes in from a listener,
• 55:11
  Speaker 2: William Ryan. He asks us Tom, if you were w
• 55:15
  Speaker 2: w F wrestlers, what would your gimmicks be And you know,
• 55:19
  Speaker 2: I kind of pulled this a little bit because he's
• 55:22
  Speaker 2: stressed that if you were w w F wrestlers not
• 55:25
  Speaker 2: w w so I guess that's not like today. We
• 55:28
  Speaker 2: would just have plain black trunks and just I would
• 55:31
  Speaker 2: be great bredon. You'd be Tom Omanney. Yeah, you could
• 55:35
  Speaker 2: be fucking anything. You could be your rooster.
• 55:38
  Speaker 3: You fucking could be a rouster.
• 55:40
  Speaker 2: A little rooster.
• 55:41
  Speaker 3: That's more like it. Now, that's a that's a nicely
• 55:44
  Speaker 3: nuanced one. If I was going to be a wrestler
• 55:46
  Speaker 3: from let's say the nineties w w F, I'd be
• 55:52
  Speaker 3: the culture.
• 55:54
  Speaker 2: You'd be the culture. You know what it could I
• 55:56
  Speaker 2: could I put one on your tom now that I see,
• 55:58
  Speaker 2: you would be cameo man, camo man. No, you see
• 56:03
  Speaker 2: if you're wearing your real live cameo there today. What
• 56:06
  Speaker 2: if you had like cameo that made you look like
• 56:09
  Speaker 2: the ring so that when you lay down on the
• 56:11
  Speaker 2: ring you couldn't see, just like school boy.
• 56:16
  Speaker 3: Would be the chameleon. Yeah, yeah, yeah, No, I think
• 56:20
  Speaker 3: i'd be I'd have to be something real country. I'd
• 56:24
  Speaker 3: be one of the Clancy brothers or something. Or I
• 56:26
  Speaker 3: think i'd be something really really country, because do you
• 56:30
  Speaker 3: know what to do?
• 56:30
  Speaker 2: You know what to be good and it would work.
• 56:33
  Speaker 2: It will be such a cool wrestler name. And also
• 56:36
  Speaker 2: it will be like super culchy. You could be one
• 56:39
  Speaker 2: of the Furies.
• 56:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, just show up and I
• 56:44
  Speaker 3: bust one of one of the Furies. Yeah.
• 56:48
  Speaker 2: I suppose to come in swinging a banjo like you
• 56:50
  Speaker 2: know banjo.
• 56:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, oh, one of the Furies, the band good Yeah yeah, yeah, exactly.
• 56:54
  Speaker 3: Fitbar Fury, just finnbar Fury puts down simbar Fury is
• 56:57
  Speaker 3: an actual wrestling name, isn't It actually is a great name,
• 57:01
  Speaker 3: I think though, because I'd like to incorporate I think
• 57:04
  Speaker 3: I'd have to have something very country in there. Are
• 57:06
  Speaker 3: something farmery in there, you know, the silence contractor it
• 57:10
  Speaker 3: turns up like and and my finishing move will be
• 57:12
  Speaker 3: like catching somebody by the back by the legs and
• 57:15
  Speaker 3: flipping them up and slamming them down off the ground.
• 57:17
  Speaker 3: And I call it the tailboard slap, the tailboard slap,
• 57:20
  Speaker 3: the PTO slam because hey, actually speaking of which, and
• 57:26

  Speaker 3: up on that stage with that woman, like you know
• 57:53
