- 1:38Speaker 1: Did you need a bouncy castle?
- 1:40Speaker 3: We did, Yes, we needed the boundy camp bound How
- 1:42Speaker 3: low everybody, and welcome, by the way to the Tom
- 1:45Speaker 3: and Jerry Show. I'm Jerry McBride. That's Tom. O'Mahoney, you're
- 1:49Speaker 3: very welcome along to our podcast. Where goes a lot
- 1:52Speaker 3: like this? I gotta tell you. Yeah, we had a
- 1:55Speaker 3: first communion and now all our kids in the house
- 1:57Speaker 3: are first communionized, some more threatening in a second.
- 2:00Speaker 1: Tom, Yeah, it's quite a financial beneficial venture that you'd
- 2:07Speaker 1: head into. I give a go at the community myself.
- 2:09Speaker 1: These days. The way they're they're they're looking out from
- 2:11Speaker 1: the things. Sure it's money left right in the center.
- 2:14Speaker 1: There was money handed over yesterday like an Italian wedding,
- 2:17Speaker 1: Like it was amazing. Answers on your birthday party.
- 2:19Speaker 3: It was unbelievable and and and for anybody that that
- 2:24Speaker 3: doubt with Eric Communion, thank you very much. And it
- 2:26Speaker 3: was much appreciated and very much appreciated. But with that
- 2:29Speaker 3: being said, Tom, the bouncy castle was had at the back,
- 2:34Speaker 3: and I dared go on it. I didn't dare go
- 2:35Speaker 3: on it.
- 2:36Speaker 1: Of course you didn't because your spine would just flick
- 2:38Speaker 1: out like rice crackers.
- 2:40Speaker 3: My stack and dime spine would just like I'm doing
- 2:44Speaker 3: all right if Jerry weddings right now. But let's not
- 2:47Speaker 3: push it.
- 2:48Speaker 1: You have to believe Jerry right now. He did not
- 2:50Speaker 1: go on that bounce cast because if he did, we
- 2:52Speaker 1: would be doing this podcast half from a fucking bouncy
- 2:55Speaker 1: castle right now. Yeah. So I do you know what
- 2:58Speaker 1: it's funny you say, because we drove back up from
- 3:00Speaker 1: place called novel In or Rocky Bay was the name
- 3:03Speaker 1: of a rocky It sounds like an eighty sitcom, but
- 3:07Speaker 1: Rocky Bay, the small little beach down to Corkford. They
- 3:09Speaker 1: had a barbecue. Very cool people, you know, cool people
- 3:12Speaker 1: have barbecues on the beach, and a very lot of
- 3:15Speaker 1: very cool people.
- 3:15Speaker 3: There tidy up after themselves. Tom.
- 3:17Speaker 1: They did in fairness. I was drawn in. That was
- 3:19Speaker 1: my one use of the day was picking up a
- 3:21Speaker 1: table on my head and walking back up but up
- 3:23Speaker 1: the road with a butt and walking into the back
- 3:25Speaker 1: of a vent. But the one thing I did notice
- 3:28Speaker 1: on the way back up was the fortune of money.
- 3:31Speaker 1: Lads are making it. The bouncy castles. I must have
- 3:33Speaker 1: seen nineteen of them driving back from Cork yesterday. Just
- 3:37Speaker 1: bouncy castles, after bouncy castles, just sharks, pirate ships, dinosaurs, crocodiles,
- 3:44Speaker 1: you name it, and it was there. I mean, I
- 3:48Speaker 1: was expecting to see like a stag party one just
- 3:50Speaker 1: to just giant pirro hits or something just which would
- 3:53Speaker 1: it would which would make me laugh. But you know,
- 3:56Speaker 1: the neighbors might be in the different vibe of the
- 3:58Speaker 1: whole thing.
- 3:59Speaker 3: But you know, I'll I'll tell you. Tell me if
- 4:01Speaker 3: you were badly caught and you couldn't get a buncy
- 4:03Speaker 3: castle for the child, to turn around you and said,
- 4:05Speaker 3: the only one we have is the massive mickey. It's
- 4:07Speaker 3: not for kids, it's only for dolts. I don't care.
- 4:09Speaker 3: Give it me.
- 4:10Speaker 1: Give me the.
- 4:11Speaker 3: Mickey, give me the mickey, give me the speaking to
- 4:14Speaker 3: give me the Mickey, isn't that just a nice segue into.
- 4:18Speaker 1: Our and to our first segment here of the Do
- 4:21Speaker 1: you know what I have to say before we go?
- 4:23Speaker 1: Before we go any further, Jerry, it's we we with
- 4:26Speaker 1: proper internet and everything. Now. I can't promise that we
- 4:29Speaker 1: will put it in the notes, but if you look
- 4:32Speaker 1: on Spotify and hope Creator Studio has told me that
- 4:34Speaker 1: we can put this video and we have good internet now,
- 4:36Speaker 1: so well, Jerry, always a good internet. I now have
- 4:39Speaker 1: good internet in the forest, so hopefully will there'll actually
- 4:42Speaker 1: be a video of our faces speaking, if that's the thing.
- 4:45Speaker 1: Because people, younger folks don't, they don't understand the concept
- 4:48Speaker 1: of an listening to podcasts. I watched the podcast. I'm like, no,
- 4:51Speaker 1: you watch the chat, you listen to a podcast. But
- 4:55Speaker 1: who am I to say? These youthful youth off today?
- 4:58Speaker 1: So it may it may or may not be there.
- 5:00Speaker 1: It'll be somewhere, It'll it'll be somewhere.
- 5:01Speaker 3: If I'd know, I'd be honest with your tom if
- 5:03Speaker 3: I've known that it was going to be on cameras,
- 5:04Speaker 3: even though would have ironed the short. But here we are.
- 5:07Speaker 3: But if this does make you, if you can see that.
- 5:09Speaker 3: You can see us gesticulate wildly as we talk about
- 5:13Speaker 3: the first segment of the show, which, as everybody knows,
- 5:15Speaker 3: is where we tackle the noise, Tom, their gossip, the rips,
- 5:19Speaker 3: the roars, the tears, the scuttle but the big news,
- 5:23Speaker 3: the weekly what have you. This is a very complicated case,
- 5:27Speaker 3: mod You know, a lot of ian's, a lot of outs,
- 5:28Speaker 3: a lot.
- 5:28Speaker 1: Of what have you, and uh, a lot of scrans
- 5:31Speaker 1: to keep in my head. Man, you said, you know what,
- 5:35Speaker 1: We circle back to this so subject every so ofphager.
- 5:38Speaker 1: We can't help ourselves.
- 5:39Speaker 3: We can't help ourselves. There's a couple of things. Me
- 5:41Speaker 3: and Tom over here love number one podcast and number
- 5:44Speaker 3: two prison. We love stories stories from prison.
- 5:49Speaker 1: I talked about what's wrong with us, like just any
- 5:51Speaker 1: opportunity at all, I mean any opportunity.
- 5:55Speaker 3: We've we've spoken at length about prison.
- 5:58Speaker 1: I think it's tangoing cash. Was it was it hang
- 6:00Speaker 1: gooing cash. They probably caught us cut it all right.
- 6:03Speaker 3: Cash, Yeah, I tank going cash was like the fun
- 6:05Speaker 3: side of prison, where every now and then a fist
- 6:06Speaker 3: fight would break out. You break at your guys jaw
- 6:09Speaker 3: that couldn't be broken. Then you've got also your show
- 6:13Speaker 3: Redemptions and the what not, and that's that's not good.
- 6:16Speaker 3: But we do, we do. We're enamored by prison. We
- 6:19Speaker 3: don't want to go to it. If there's a gig
- 6:21Speaker 3: going in it. Talk to me about money. I don't know.
- 6:25Speaker 1: They are gigs going, and I don't think the money
- 6:27Speaker 1: is hectic. But apparently giving back, I'm like, now, you're
- 6:31Speaker 1: all right.
- 6:32Speaker 3: You know, it's the one place where you're like, you know,
- 6:35Speaker 3: heckle me all you want, Paul, Like, you know, if
- 6:37Speaker 3: I start a routing here, which if is going to
- 6:39Speaker 3: be in jail for another six months or not gear
- 6:42Speaker 3: into a good behavior ban? Yeah, ah, what the hell
- 6:45Speaker 3: are we talking about? Here? Is the big news is
- 6:48Speaker 3: a big old prison break in New Orleans and Orleans,
- 6:53Speaker 3: specifically Orleans Parish. Orleans Parish Jail voted America's worst jail
- 7:00Speaker 3: in twenty thirteen. And think of the grand that covers
- 7:03Speaker 3: Jesus on what basis you know, poor Turndown service, Tom.
- 7:08Speaker 1: Like, I love, I love the idea of voted for
- 7:11Speaker 1: you know, worst prison, Like who's like, who's voting?
- 7:15Speaker 3: Is that? It's the difference?
- 7:16Speaker 1: Did they not all get one star? Like do you
- 7:18Speaker 1: know what I mean, there's some lads going to be now.
- 7:20Speaker 1: You know it was nice in the you know, the
- 7:22Speaker 1: breakfast is always good and they've all you know, the
- 7:25Speaker 1: staff were always nice to me.
- 7:27Speaker 3: But the prisoner is sitting down with the survey going like,
- 7:29Speaker 3: that's not that bad in here. I think it was
- 7:32Speaker 3: voted worst prison from a humanitarian point of view.
- 7:35Speaker 1: Again, who's voting for that? Who's voting for the bits?
- 7:39Speaker 3: I never understand who's the vo Tom.
- 7:43Speaker 1: Like, if somebody is able to vote from their phone,
- 7:44Speaker 1: you're kind of going, we have an issue here. You
- 7:47Speaker 1: shouldn't be it should be fucking rating us on fucking whatever.
- 7:52Speaker 1: Because the phone.
- 7:53Speaker 3: I can tell you. I can tell you a couple
- 7:55Speaker 3: of lads that did not want to be in Orleans
- 7:59Speaker 3: Prison anymore, which is eleven inmates scarboard over the last
- 8:03Speaker 3: couple of days. Now, I gotta tell you, Tom, eleven
- 8:05Speaker 3: inmates scarboard and that was really that was down downgraded
- 8:09Speaker 3: again to ten when they had a proper head counter
- 8:11Speaker 3: of the garage to found. Oh wait, no, hang on,
- 8:14Speaker 3: it wasn't eleven eleven lads. Shame he's hiding in the
- 8:17Speaker 3: corner over here.
- 8:18Speaker 1: He's grand like, already you're off to a bad start,
- 8:21Speaker 1: aren't you You're going how did these guys get out?
- 8:24Speaker 1: And you're like, you couldn't even fucking count the ones
- 8:26Speaker 1: that were lost.
- 8:27Speaker 3: I couldn't count. You couldn't count the ones that were there.
- 8:29Speaker 3: You just knew that there was more chow to go
- 8:31Speaker 3: around at breakfast time than normally there was.
- 8:34Speaker 1: Oh hold on, there's normally all the sausage are normally gone.
- 8:37Speaker 1: Then you're gonna be count twenty two sausages?
- 8:42Speaker 3: Did you get? Did you get did you get molested?
- 8:44Speaker 3: In the showers? Tomorn and no.
- 8:47Speaker 1: Lads, So Jimmy fingers not around, he must be safe.
- 8:52Speaker 1: Where does he go up and check his room? Knock
- 8:55Speaker 1: him up there and see if you see if he's in.
- 8:57Speaker 3: Eleven lads absconded from and Tom downgraded to ten when
- 9:02Speaker 3: we counted another one, and recently three more have been
- 9:05Speaker 3: caught by the time we answered this podcast, So we're
- 9:09Speaker 3: down to seven lads on the LAMB from Orleans prison,
- 9:13Speaker 3: which is I gotta tell you, as prison breaks go.
- 9:17Speaker 1: Successful, fair handy, fair handy. Now, Like I mean, if
- 9:21Speaker 1: anybody wants to go and watch the video device, literally
- 9:24Speaker 1: run out the door like they run out of the door,
- 9:26Speaker 1: like a door that had a camera on it, do
- 9:28Speaker 1: you know what I mean? So you just see the
- 9:29Speaker 1: leads like it's not like they choppered, you know, like
- 9:32Speaker 1: something you know from the eighties with the IRA or something.
- 9:34Speaker 1: Wasn't like a chopper lifting them out of it or something.
- 9:36Speaker 1: This was just leads getting to the inside of the
- 9:39Speaker 1: front door and running out the front door like.
- 9:41Speaker 3: It looked like a Keystone cops kind of, yeah, clown
- 9:45Speaker 3: car of convicts.
- 9:46Speaker 1: Like for ten for ten to all successfully get off
- 9:50Speaker 1: the property. You're doing like something's wrong, like serious wrong, lads,
- 9:55Speaker 1: Like that's yeah, hey, hey, hey, hey, put that chair
- 9:58Speaker 1: against the handle. That'll fucking that'll see.
- 10:01Speaker 3: I'm gonna I'm gonna run through them by name here, Tom,
- 10:04Speaker 3: We've got We've got from youngest to oldest. We've got
- 10:07Speaker 3: Cory Boyd nineteen, Jermaine donald Is forty two, Derrick Groves
- 10:11Speaker 3: twenty seven, and Twine Massi thirty two, Gary Price, Leo Tate,
- 10:15Speaker 3: Lenton Van Buren, The Keenan, Dennis Kendall, Miles, Robert Moody,
- 10:21Speaker 3: my brother, but Moody, Dennis and mine.
- 10:23Speaker 1: If I went to school with a Gary Price, I'm sure.
- 10:27Speaker 3: Here is twenty one. It could be him.
- 10:29Speaker 1: Hey, yeah, okay, well maybe his son, who knows.
- 10:35Speaker 3: I doubt he went from a Tipperary direction all the
- 10:38Speaker 3: way over to New Orleans.
- 10:41Speaker 1: We have a history of immigration in this country, Jerry.
- 10:44Speaker 1: We are great immigrants. We are so you'd never know.
- 10:46Speaker 1: I'm just saying.
- 10:47Speaker 3: But I gotta tell you, Tom, I've been reading a
- 10:49Speaker 3: lot of stories about these guys, these eleven guys that
- 10:51Speaker 3: have gone. Not one of them called them Orleans eleven,
- 10:53Speaker 3: which I think is a missed opportunity.
- 10:55Speaker 1: I was one hundred percent waiting when you text me
- 10:57Speaker 1: about it, went, oh, this will be the early I mean,
- 10:58Speaker 1: we'll literally e numbers get in the fern group name
- 11:01Speaker 1: last week. The lads aren't called the of course they're
- 11:03Speaker 1: not called the Ordians them because it's only.
- 11:04Speaker 3: For ten and now there's seven, it must be said.
- 11:08Speaker 3: But regardless of which, I gotta tell you a couple
- 11:09Speaker 3: of things here, Tom, Yeah, a couple of things here.
- 11:12Speaker 3: And we were going to make light of this situation.
- 11:14Speaker 3: But like in truth to everybody, we discovered on research
- 11:19Speaker 3: that these are incredibly dangerous men.
- 11:21Speaker 1: There are a bunch of tramps everyone. You would not
- 11:24Speaker 1: vouch for anyone like, you're not rooting for these lads.
- 11:26Speaker 3: There, No, this isn't. This isn't Andy Dufrein making good
- 11:29Speaker 3: on his promise to escape this hellhole of a jail.
- 11:31Speaker 3: These are dangerous wanted convicts, and if you see them,
- 11:36Speaker 3: you know, inform the local authorities. Do not attempt to
- 11:39Speaker 3: apprehend them by yourselves. These are These are not escaping
- 11:43Speaker 3: for a life of a soldier of fortuness like the
- 11:45Speaker 3: A team. They're They're not They're not out in the
- 11:47Speaker 3: world to do good. These are a packet basterlets. Yeah,
- 11:53Speaker 3: with that being said, I have a couple of notes
- 11:57Speaker 3: on their method of escape. As Tom said, there, these
- 11:59Speaker 3: guys just basically bomped out of the place because the
- 12:02Speaker 3: jail is a hell hole and it's falling apart to
- 12:05Speaker 3: the point that these lads could literally pull a cell
- 12:08Speaker 3: door off its hinges. It was like a a vacant cell,
- 12:13Speaker 3: if you can believe such a thing, because the door
- 12:16Speaker 3: was malfunctioning and whatnot, and oh yeah, we get round
- 12:19Speaker 3: effects and that we get round affects in that well,
- 12:21Speaker 3: the convicts were kind of like, we'll get around to,
- 12:23Speaker 3: you know, prying that off its hinges and prying it
- 12:26Speaker 3: off and basically they had the run of the cell
- 12:28Speaker 3: for some time with nobody noticing that they were getting
- 12:31Speaker 3: in and out of four B And while they weren't
- 12:33Speaker 3: four me that just basically kicked the fuck out of
- 12:35Speaker 3: the wall and got through it and you know, made
- 12:39Speaker 3: good their escape on a dark and stormy night, so
- 12:41Speaker 3: brazen where they tom on their way out. And this
- 12:44Speaker 3: is what caught her a first and.
- 12:45Speaker 1: Foremost amazing and say it and then I want you
- 12:49Speaker 1: to spell it.
- 12:50Speaker 3: Chair on the wall they scralled too easy, they.
- 12:54Speaker 1: No, and above that they wrote we innocent.
- 12:57Speaker 3: We innocent? Too easy and too easy A spell t
- 13:00Speaker 3: o easy, Yeah easy, and then let's raise a glass
- 13:04Speaker 3: to easy.
- 13:05Speaker 1: And that's the way with aids. But you're look but
- 13:10Speaker 1: then tend to make it real jovial, and I'm just
- 13:12Speaker 1: child like. I'm assuming. The eighteen year old lad wrote
- 13:15Speaker 1: lo o L underneath ol you nearly got ah, you know,
- 13:20Speaker 1: guess bastard.
- 13:21Speaker 3: But here's the thing, Tom, I'm going to tell you
- 13:23Speaker 3: this now. I've never been in jail. I like to
- 13:25Speaker 3: think I could escape. I'm not taking ten lads with me, am,
- 13:29Speaker 3: I am?
- 13:31Speaker 1: I fuck at first, like the lads would no more,
- 13:35Speaker 1: no I think I would be. I'd have a picture
- 13:38Speaker 1: of what's her name?
- 13:39Speaker 3: Was it? Rachel Raquel?
- 13:44Speaker 1: I'm not a hope in Jesus would they know where
- 13:47Speaker 1: I was? Like, not a fit. You're drawn trouble because
- 13:51Speaker 1: there's going to be out of the ten, the nine
- 13:53Speaker 1: that are with you, there's going to be I swear
- 13:56Speaker 1: to God this, I know for a fact, there's going
- 13:58Speaker 1: to be seven. Take his fuck, take a fuck, take
- 14:02Speaker 1: his fuck.
- 14:03Speaker 3: You know what I mean?
- 14:04Speaker 1: Okay, you know what I mean. They're gonna go back
- 14:05Speaker 1: to their mother's house like.
- 14:07Speaker 3: A hundred yards with causing the three lads that got
- 14:11Speaker 3: picked up, the girl got picked up for like trying
- 14:12Speaker 3: to rob cars and ship like this.
- 14:14Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, zero plan left outside the zero zero plan.
- 14:18Speaker 3: Like I can put it to you, Tom, I would
- 14:21Speaker 3: put it to you that prison break rules should follow
- 14:24Speaker 3: stag party rules in that if you're gonna try and
- 14:28Speaker 3: get into a pub, don't all go fifteen at a time. Here, now,
- 14:32Speaker 3: try and sneak in. Two lads, three lads going, then
- 14:36Speaker 3: maybe one lad on his own, try and stagger it
- 14:38Speaker 3: like that. You know what happens when eleven lads walks
- 14:41Speaker 3: up to a pub.
- 14:42Speaker 1: And look, you exactly. But and you drop the letter
- 14:45Speaker 1: in behind you. You go, look, lads, this is what you
- 14:47Speaker 1: need to do. When am I doing it? I'll not
- 14:50Speaker 1: fucking tell you when I'm doing it. You know you'll
- 14:51Speaker 1: know when I'm not down to breakfast. You be just
- 14:53Speaker 1: keep you just keep your mouth shut. You just keep
- 14:56Speaker 1: your mouth shut, okay, and you'll be ready to go
- 14:58Speaker 1: to following night like I mean, we you know, lad,
- 15:02Speaker 1: it wasn't. It didn't. In all fairness, though, I reckon,
- 15:04Speaker 1: that's not like anybody who wrote to easy l O L.
- 15:11Speaker 1: With a bit of sharpness, you could probably find eleven
- 15:14Speaker 1: other places you could break out and break out of
- 15:16Speaker 1: that prison. Like they kicked through the wall. They kicked
- 15:20Speaker 1: through a prison wall, like do you know what I mean?
- 15:23Speaker 1: This isn't El Chapo getting out from fucking you know,
- 15:25Speaker 1: his son turning up with an army like this is
- 15:27Speaker 1: the lads kicked a hole into the wall and then pright.
- 15:30Speaker 1: Now the sheriff is saying, no, of course he is.
- 15:33Speaker 1: He's gone. But there's three they have she she isn't she?

- 19:50Speaker 3: to welcome you back and say you got us your
- 19:51Speaker 3: little rask only Yeah, yeah, a little nuggy there. But
- 19:56Speaker 3: regardless of which, if you were in the Greater Orleans there,
- 20:00Speaker 3: keep an eye out for seven lads. But tell them
- 20:04Speaker 3: Tom and Jerry sent you. That's all I'll say. Send
- 20:06Speaker 3: them back to president and say listen, as I know,

- 22:49Speaker 3: am I doing?
- 22:49Speaker 1: Okay, So this is Michelle himself. He's like I was
- 22:52Speaker 1: doing a routine jiggerman Land. So we're anti piping quest
- 22:57Speaker 1: for the Holy grailier zin Zinna Sauce the Lange shine
- 23:01Speaker 1: in the mud. When I dug it deeper, I couldn't
- 23:04Speaker 1: believe what I was holding in my hands. That was
- 23:09Speaker 1: when Michelle found real motherfucking gold nuggets, actual nuggets there,
- 23:13Speaker 1: not a knob but stuff. He's gotta break off a
- 23:15Speaker 1: tonnel fucking shale off the side of it. No actual nuggets,
- 23:19Speaker 1: like somebody had spat them out of a nugget making machine.
- 23:23Speaker 3: Like we're talking about cartoon nuggets of gold.
- 23:27Speaker 1: Genuine Like there's a picture of them here and washed up,
- 23:29Speaker 1: and they shit like, there's exactly what you imagine, like
- 23:33Speaker 1: they I pictured vegas of gold, gold, pebbles of gold.
- 23:37Speaker 3: Because I gotta tell you, Tom, I often, you know,
- 23:39Speaker 3: you hear about like pan and for gold in the
- 23:40Speaker 3: stream and all this kind of thing, and you see
- 23:43Speaker 3: people panning for gold, and like your natural history documentaries
- 23:47Speaker 3: and the whatnot, and that there are panels like I've
- 23:49Speaker 3: been panning away for it. Yes I've got and I
- 23:51Speaker 3: found gold. And you look into the plan and it's
- 23:53Speaker 3: like glitter insand.
- 23:55Speaker 1: A dandruff of gold is what it is.
- 23:57Speaker 3: It's just like glitter insand the merest little flake of
- 24:01Speaker 3: was like, yeah, it is gold, my man. But at
- 24:04Speaker 3: the same time, I'm like, you weren't that stream for
- 24:05Speaker 3: eight hours getting trench for.
- 24:07Speaker 1: And now they're gonna have to bring in four million
- 24:10Speaker 1: euros worth of gear, spend another ten million euros to
- 24:14Speaker 1: pass as much earthstrough it and fucking scare the land
- 24:17Speaker 1: for one hundred acres to get just about the makings
- 24:20Speaker 1: and giving themselves a wage.
- 24:21Speaker 3: This lad was this lad, No, not not for Michelle DuPont.
- 24:25Speaker 1: No, he was given off for a wander around his field,
- 24:28Speaker 1: just having a look at the place, and it could
- 24:31Speaker 1: jump down to the ground to him nearly. So it
- 24:33Speaker 1: turns out there's one hundred estimated to be one hundred
- 24:36Speaker 1: and fifty tons of stuff possibly right now he's sitting on.
- 24:41Speaker 1: They're gauging what he's sitting on and what he found
- 24:43Speaker 1: about four billion euros worth of gold right now.
- 24:48Speaker 3: This this always was like the dream of the farming people.
- 24:51Speaker 3: People think that people are farming because the love farm
- 24:54Speaker 3: and the love of the land, the love cows. Nah. No,
- 24:57Speaker 3: there's always the dream that you're just going to turn
- 24:59Speaker 3: over over a sid and find a Roman fortress or
- 25:04Speaker 3: buried treasure or freaking I don't know, one hundred and
- 25:07Speaker 3: fifty tons of solid gold. Yeah, And I mean this
- 25:11Speaker 3: is speak here out of gold.
- 25:13Speaker 1: And this is this is the moment where you're like,
- 25:16Speaker 1: oh Jesus good man, Michelle, Oh wait, I'm reading about
- 25:19Speaker 1: this in a fucking Times newspaper. That means, Michelle, you
- 25:26Speaker 1: fucking hate it. You tell somebody, you tell someone nobody
- 25:31Speaker 1: not hated. And of course as soon as he did, jir,
- 25:35Speaker 1: I may tell you this is where it gets. I'd
- 25:39Speaker 1: love to just pull Michelle aside and just go look,
- 25:40Speaker 1: we'll go for a point because you're fair. This is
- 25:42Speaker 1: this is just candale. Soon after Jared, the government officials
- 25:45Speaker 1: arrived on side. Of course they did. It's now become
- 25:47Speaker 1: a sight jar. It was it was a corner of
- 25:49Speaker 1: a field for a minute ago. Now it's sight And
- 25:53Speaker 1: Michelle was told informed that under French natural resource lives laws,
- 25:57Speaker 1: no mining or extraction would be a loud until environmental
- 26:01Speaker 1: and legal reviews were compiled. They told me that nothing
- 26:07Speaker 1: can happen until the tests are done. I understand the
- 26:11Speaker 1: need for causion. What caution is need caution shovel. If
- 26:16Speaker 1: ever there was a time to throw caution to the wind,
- 26:19Speaker 1: this is the time. But it's hard not to be disappointed.
- 26:24Speaker 1: The land has now been sealed off from any commercial activity.
- 26:27Speaker 1: He can't even firm the fucking thing as in environmental
- 26:29Speaker 1: studies and legal reviews get underway in France, exact same
- 26:34Speaker 1: as Ireland. Jer because I know you're going to ask
- 26:36Speaker 1: the exact same as Ireland. In France natural resources are
- 26:40Speaker 1: tightly regulated, even when found on your own private property.
- 26:43Speaker 1: So anything in the subside because it will be not
- 26:45Speaker 1: in the top side. I can tell anybody that if
- 26:47Speaker 1: you dug down a little and went, eh, that's not there.
- 26:49Speaker 1: Trust me go down and further, go further, and found
- 26:53Speaker 1: in the subside belongs to the state, simple as that.
- 26:56Speaker 1: And that's the same here. And I'll tell you the
- 26:58Speaker 1: law here, jerrys. If you find twenty flakes aka two grams, yes,
- 27:06Speaker 1: you can keep that one fucking fenny here over that
- 27:11Speaker 1: and you have to report that or your breaking the law.
- 27:13Speaker 1: Can you imagine that?
- 27:15Speaker 3: Can you listen to him? I'm telling my solution to this, okay.
- 27:18Speaker 3: If I was Michelle DuPont here, okay, because you know
- 27:21Speaker 3: they're going to tie that up in red tape and
- 27:23Speaker 3: fit around and you know it's going to be six
- 27:25Speaker 3: years before they even turn aside, I would just be
- 27:30Speaker 3: getting as much of that into my pockets as is
- 27:33Speaker 3: humanly possible and taking it down to the local cash
- 27:36Speaker 3: for gold shop, like dropping in five hundred euros worth
- 27:39Speaker 3: a week and saying, just give me that in cash,
- 27:41Speaker 3: thank you, I'll be back to you next week. Give
- 27:43Speaker 3: me that in cash. Just draw a wage out of
- 27:46Speaker 3: the land, literally with what you'd fill in your boots. Yeah, oh,
- 27:49Speaker 3: declare nothing.
- 27:51Speaker 1: Not If it took me thirty fucking years, my mouth
- 27:55Speaker 1: would be full of gold. I'd have a gold It
- 27:59Speaker 1: would be elude.
- 28:00Speaker 3: Chris, I'll be rocking up to your child's first community.
- 28:03Speaker 3: Go like, you look lovely there. How are you keeping? Yeah,
- 28:05Speaker 3: you turned out lovely. Here's a week you put that
- 28:07Speaker 3: in the pocket there, and I would like a golf
- 28:09Speaker 3: ball full of gold.
- 28:10Speaker 1: I would be like, literally like I would be the
- 28:12Speaker 1: most bulgarian looking Irish guy that ever walked the planet.
- 28:16Speaker 3: Like just in their surprise, eggs full of gold.
- 28:19Speaker 1: Oh my god. So yeah, they this is what Michelle
- 28:22Speaker 1: was told. He was basically said he can't do a
- 28:23Speaker 1: fucking stroke on his farm. They keep on making me
- 28:27Speaker 1: offers to bat the farm. We love. The piece of
- 28:30Speaker 1: squad of the country is sad. I hope all this
- 28:33Speaker 1: doesn't change everything over that said Michell. Well, I'm sorry, sorry, Michelle,
- 28:39Speaker 1: but you opened your f and mouth. Are you joking
- 28:43Speaker 1: your absolute sausage? Of course, And I may tell you, Michelle,
- 28:48Speaker 1: if you think you half a hope of keeping a
- 28:51Speaker 1: fucking wrecks of that, they'll give you some nominal Thanks
- 28:55Speaker 1: very much. There's a good to the boy. By the way,
- 28:57Speaker 1: we don't have to do this because you we are
- 28:59Speaker 1: following the letter the law given.
- 29:02Speaker 3: There's the price of your farm and fifty quick for yourselves.
- 29:04Speaker 1: Given how the French governments have been boxed out of
- 29:09Speaker 1: different parts of Africa in the last six months, I
- 29:11Speaker 1: don't know if anybody's keeping an eye on that. But
- 29:13Speaker 1: in Barcino Fasso, they just got caught by the collar.
- 29:18Speaker 1: They what, no, we love staying here. We used to
- 29:22Speaker 1: beyond masters and dry. The young guy that's running the
- 29:26Speaker 1: show went, we'll have no more of that, now, out
- 29:29Speaker 1: to fuck. And what was funny was they were playing
- 29:33Speaker 1: Barcino Fasso, were paying them a billion dollars a year
- 29:36Speaker 1: to the French to scoop fucking gold and run away
- 29:39Speaker 1: with it out of their country. And I think the
- 29:40Speaker 1: Ivory Coast have had enough of now as well, and yeah,
- 29:44Speaker 1: like what we do, yeah, yeah, yeah, Now I think
- 29:47Speaker 1: they've turned out about eighteen billion dollars worth of gold
- 29:50Speaker 1: themselves at this stage. So the French that's are gone,
- 29:52Speaker 1: what all gold? And they're like, let's ever look, and
- 29:57Speaker 1: then Michelle opens his mouth. It must have been like,
- 30:00Speaker 1: oh my god, it is a sand from eaven.
- 30:04Speaker 3: Likelign from heaven. Michelle is gonna condemn you straight.
- 30:08Speaker 1: Down I'm telling you that, Michelle, you may buy a
- 30:10Speaker 1: farm up the road. That's I may as well tell
- 30:13Speaker 1: you now you are not getting within an ass's roar.
- 30:16Speaker 3: You're not getting the price.
- 30:19Speaker 1: I hope, like you have to hope that he didn't
- 30:22Speaker 1: unless it's a complete fucking dope. He didn't fill up
- 30:25Speaker 1: the pockets at least. Do you know there's some Babbitt's
- 30:28Speaker 1: crib that the mattress is full of fucking nuggets, you
- 30:31Speaker 1: know what I mean?
- 30:32Speaker 3: There's so sometimes you'd love to see him like driving away.
- 30:36Speaker 3: It's like, okay, you have just me off my land
- 30:38Speaker 3: and he's driving along just the axles of the as
- 30:45Speaker 3: a donkey with saddle bags on his bag, just absolutely
- 30:47Speaker 3: buckled to the ground.
- 30:49Speaker 1: For anybody who has have you have you? Have you
- 30:52Speaker 1: watched that movie that's on Netflix.
- 30:55Speaker 3: What's it called?
- 30:56Speaker 1: It's not Circle? What's what's people are shouting at their
- 30:59Speaker 1: phones right now. He's a gold gold prospector. It's basically
- 31:05Speaker 1: John Wick.
- 31:06Speaker 3: Oh CAESU. Yeah, I haven't actually watched that. It's amazing.
- 31:12Speaker 3: Has not occurred to me just yet.
- 31:13Speaker 1: Tom, It is amazing. So you don't watch it. Fully's
- 31:16Speaker 1: over because you'll ask too many questions. Just sit down, relax,
- 31:20Speaker 1: and a joy and Caesar. I'm guessing Michelle didn't excuse
- 31:25Speaker 1: me for the cough there. Miss Michelle definitely did watch
- 31:27Speaker 1: Sesu because if he did, we would not know. Michelle,
- 31:31Speaker 1: I as tell you that.
- 31:32Speaker 3: So let me tell you. Let me tell you when
- 31:34Speaker 3: you've blown it in this world, you've blown her. When
- 31:37Speaker 3: you're being discussed by me and Tom, you're fucked.
- 31:41Speaker 1: You're fucked.
- 31:43Speaker 3: If we know that's too many people, I'm gonna tell
- 31:45Speaker 3: you that much.

- 32:13Speaker 3: right this very second. But Tom, it takes me back
- 32:17Speaker 3: to childhood. Now, finding Bury Treasures as a classic childhood story.
- 32:22Speaker 3: It's not Yester the year or me were kids. Now,
- 32:23Speaker 3: I'll tell you that much not yester. The year or
- 32:25Speaker 3: we made our first communions is not right one hundred
- 32:27Speaker 3: and ten. And in that time, Tom, we have experienced
- 32:32Speaker 3: massive change in the world. We've just the right sweet
- 32:35Speaker 3: spoty age to have been born in the early eighties.
- 32:38Speaker 3: We saw always die off and new ways come in.
- 32:41Speaker 3: We're at the funck from my life, as we like
- 32:43Speaker 3: to say here on the Tom and Jerry Show, and
- 32:45Speaker 3: we like to reminisce about the things that we've seen
- 32:47Speaker 3: come and go in a segment that we call we
- 32:50Speaker 3: remember when when I was a.
- 32:52Speaker 1: Young lad twenty or thirty or forty years ago. You've
- 32:56Speaker 1: lovely toned to that too, by the way we do
- 32:58Speaker 1: that work. We remember when it's lovely.
- 33:02Speaker 3: It's not all rolling and book lapping.
- 33:04Speaker 1: No, it's true. You know you're one hundred percent right.
- 33:07Speaker 3: No, I'll tell you, won't take it. I'll tell you
- 33:09Speaker 3: one thing. We have seen things come and go, and
- 33:12Speaker 3: one thing, as men in our mid to late forties,
- 33:15Speaker 3: which we are Tom, mid forties there or thereabouts, one
- 33:18Speaker 3: thing that we've seen go. I know I certainly have
- 33:22Speaker 3: seen somethings go. And that is a patch of hair
- 33:25Speaker 3: on the back of my head. More goals every week,
- 33:28Speaker 3: it has to be said, are you joining me in
- 33:30Speaker 3: the solar panel club?
- 33:31Speaker 1: I like to call mine the penalty spot, the penalty spot, Yes, yeah, yeah,
- 33:37Speaker 1: oh not? Is there all right? But sure? Look at
- 33:39Speaker 1: as any bad builder I ever talked to you said, sure,
- 33:41Speaker 1: I can't see it from my house. Do you know
- 33:42Speaker 1: what I mean? It don't stress me out.
- 33:44Speaker 3: It doesn't stress me in the slightest looks fine for
- 33:47Speaker 3: where my arms sitting. And I'll tell you that much.
- 33:49Speaker 3: But Tom, here's what we remember. We remember a time
- 33:53Speaker 3: you and I that if you went bold, you stayed bold.
- 33:58Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 33:59Speaker 3: That doesn't seem to be the case anymore now, I
- 34:02Speaker 3: mean we can.
- 34:03Speaker 1: You can pitter patter back and forth about the Yes
- 34:08Speaker 1: they did, the stain ball and whatnot. Some lads did
- 34:11Speaker 1: challenge it. They challenged, they denied them. They tried to
- 34:14Speaker 1: deny nature back in the And this wasn't exclusive to
- 34:18Speaker 1: like a fancy America. My I was speaking with my
- 34:22Speaker 1: mother in law, who was a men's hairdresser, not a barber,
- 34:26Speaker 1: a men's hairdresser in Baggett, Straight and Dublin back in
- 34:29Speaker 1: the sixties, right sixties, seventies. That could be doing the
- 34:33Speaker 1: woman inusice. But it would have been right when when
- 34:38Speaker 1: most of the country had not, the handful that had
- 34:41Speaker 1: something had lots of it, if you know what I mean.
- 34:43Speaker 1: Like so they had lots of fucking money in that
- 34:45Speaker 1: part of Dublin. Do you know what I mean?
- 34:47Speaker 3: You know it was and starved. But yes, exactly.
- 34:51Speaker 1: Now you get the she said, you get the odd
- 34:53Speaker 1: culture light who come up once a year to get
- 34:57Speaker 1: what did this? Won't they used to have They used
- 35:00Speaker 1: to build wings, make wigs there as well, jer for lands,
- 35:04Speaker 1: and lads there were fear self conscious that they'd buy
- 35:06Speaker 1: one of these wings and did pretty much fucking glue
- 35:09Speaker 1: this ship down onto their head with Take seven and
- 35:12Speaker 1: they'd have to peel it off. This would be a
- 35:14Speaker 1: daylarm job. So they have to peel it off and
- 35:16Speaker 1: to just smell like shite, basically give it a rinse
- 35:20Speaker 1: under the tap, comb it out, you know, take a
- 35:23Speaker 1: grinder to the head. I suppose to take back the
- 35:25Speaker 1: old stuff that was there, trim up what the shite
- 35:27Speaker 1: was knocking around the edges, and then glue it back
- 35:30Speaker 1: down again and see any year John Joe. But what
- 35:35Speaker 1: she did say was like the amount of lads that
- 35:38Speaker 1: would you'd have to get inventive with how you would
- 35:41Speaker 1: have to move hair around the head as to quote
- 35:44Speaker 1: and he won't mind me to quote the great Fred Cook.
- 35:46Speaker 1: He his hair is resemble some of his first and
- 35:49Speaker 1: early Edinburgh shows where you just kind of move you
- 35:54Speaker 1: can move people around the room to give the you know,
- 35:56Speaker 1: to give give the illusion of densive up to the crowd.
- 36:02Speaker 1: So it is, it was, it's let's have challenged it,
- 36:05Speaker 1: do you know?
- 36:06Speaker 3: Now?
- 36:06Speaker 1: Around my way not so much. I think when lads
- 36:09Speaker 1: losted it just kind of grow out into foz at
- 36:11Speaker 1: the sides maybe and should that's see it?
- 36:13Speaker 3: What have you?
- 36:14Speaker 1: What worry have you? But but times have changed the
- 36:18Speaker 1: course chair and now there's visits to all sorts of
- 36:23Speaker 1: places to get things plugged into your head, which fucking
- 36:25Speaker 1: terrifies me. Oh, we'll just peel it off this bit
- 36:28Speaker 1: back here and just use you know, a whole punch
- 36:31Speaker 1: to drive it into the other part of your head.
- 36:33Speaker 1: And by the way, you'll be taking a tablet for
- 36:35Speaker 1: the rest of your life, or it'll all fall out
- 36:37Speaker 1: in the morning and it may never work at all.
- 36:40Speaker 1: But one of my favorite things to see and oh
- 36:43Speaker 1: I saw one the other day and that's why I
- 36:45Speaker 1: text about it was this old guy fighting the fight.
- 36:49Speaker 1: It was almost retro. He had a best comb over,
- 36:54Speaker 1: and I can only imagine he used fucking He had
- 36:57Speaker 1: to have put something like, you know, thirty twenty oil
- 37:01Speaker 1: through the fucking thing just to keep it down.
- 37:03Speaker 3: Like it was.
- 37:03Speaker 1: There was a sheen of it, and it was downer,
- 37:06Speaker 1: do you know what I mean? There was a there
- 37:08Speaker 1: was a he walked over a bridge and there was
- 37:09Speaker 1: a galea blowing and in care and it was going
- 37:13Speaker 1: and nowhere. It was impressive only that you could see,
- 37:18Speaker 1: you know, it was almost like you know, the curtains
- 37:20Speaker 1: kind of or not curtains, but like a blind instead
- 37:22Speaker 1: of blinds. Get you know, when somebody's looking out through them,
- 37:25Speaker 1: they just part two of them. And that's what I went, Oh,
- 37:28Speaker 1: that's a comb over, because I could see an absolute
- 37:31Speaker 1: smooth white line of his skin all the way across
- 37:34Speaker 1: the top of his head. Geez, that's a brilliant comover.
- 37:38Speaker 3: Let me tell you one thing, Tom. You know, I
- 37:41Speaker 3: was always not that vain about my hair, and I
- 37:45Speaker 3: certainly would have been. Wouldn't be one of these buys
- 37:47Speaker 3: to adopt the combovers and the what not.
- 37:51Speaker 1: I mean, now you're speaking to the guire here like
- 37:54Speaker 1: I had a fucking mullet.
- 37:55Speaker 3: Out of irony two years. And with that being said,
- 37:58Speaker 3: I did spend nearly four years with uh Is Steven
- 38:01Speaker 3: Sigall Ponytail, So maybe I am full of shit, but
- 38:04Speaker 3: I will tell you one thing right.
- 38:08Speaker 1: In fact, did your reference.
- 38:12Speaker 3: Russia's friend, Russia's friend, friend of the Kremlin Steven Sigal?
- 38:16Speaker 3: Oh my word. I was in the barber shop maybe
- 38:19Speaker 3: ten years ago, and I knew I was getting windy
- 38:21Speaker 3: at the top.
- 38:21Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, Fred didn't know it was time for him
- 38:25Speaker 1: to go part of look.
- 38:26Speaker 3: Right m And the guy goes to me, he goes,
- 38:30Speaker 3: what do you want me to do at the back? Here?
- 38:32Speaker 3: I goes, well, I don't understand. The question goes, well, look,
- 38:35Speaker 3: you know, if you want what I can do for you,
- 38:37Speaker 3: is I'm doing giving you your textbook too all over
- 38:41Speaker 3: from out the top? Anyway you do? If you want
- 38:43Speaker 3: to just leave it a wee bit longer at the
- 38:44Speaker 3: back and it'll just kind of cover that up a
- 38:46Speaker 3: little bit. And I was like, you mean, he goes,
- 38:48Speaker 3: you know, just just not cut it as short at
- 38:51Speaker 3: the back.
- 38:52Speaker 1: And you know, okay, So you're so. Let's say he
- 38:55Speaker 1: was gott that an inch all over the top.
- 38:57Speaker 3: Yeah, he was going to say, cut an inch and
- 38:59Speaker 3: five eights at the back. Oh okay, And then we
- 39:04Speaker 3: part of me brain goes, that's a comb over. That's
- 39:09Speaker 3: come over my bride, Like, think about what he's asking you.
- 39:11Speaker 3: Do you want it? But like up to that point
- 39:13Speaker 3: it was huh not not a bad idea, not the
- 39:16Speaker 3: worst idea I haven't you've ever had in your life,
- 39:19Speaker 3: I suppose. Yeah, but just a little whatever little bit
- 39:23Speaker 3: of me has sense, Tom just grabbed me and said,
- 39:25Speaker 3: that's a slippery slope. And that's a slippery slope to
- 39:28Speaker 3: a combover. You don't want that, ever, how bad it
- 39:32Speaker 3: is to look that you have as you say yourself, Tom,
- 39:34Speaker 3: the friar tuck up the top like it's a fellow
- 39:37Speaker 3: saurs for the dinosaur fans out there, heck your cephalosaurus.
- 39:40Speaker 3: Oh my god.
- 39:41Speaker 1: Yeah all right, but that's but you You just said it.
- 39:44Speaker 1: One there did the comb over because it was a staple.
- 39:48Speaker 1: I remember seeing lads like twenty different outlets would be
- 39:50Speaker 1: outside mass with the combover and hevin forbid a wind
- 39:54Speaker 1: would catch because it would stand up like a fucking
- 39:57Speaker 1: like a bridge, you know what I mean, like a
- 39:59Speaker 1: like a railway crossing. It would just stand up dead
- 40:01Speaker 1: straight because they had it full to the neck with
- 40:03Speaker 1: birl cream or decks or one of these things that
- 40:06Speaker 1: was meant to keep it down with of course a
- 40:08Speaker 1: good ghost if it caught it much like a tin
- 40:10Speaker 1: roof on a windy day, it just peeled a hole.
- 40:12Speaker 1: And you're getting all these outlads doing their best like.
- 40:15Speaker 3: Who, well, here's the thing, Tom, The disease cannot the
- 40:20Speaker 3: spggy part of let me rephrase that, cannot be worse
- 40:23Speaker 3: than the disease, all right, Yeah, so what you're doing
- 40:27Speaker 3: to make yourself not look bald can't make you look
- 40:30Speaker 3: worse than bald. And that's what a combover is. But
- 40:34Speaker 3: we've noticed hair technology develop all down through the years,
- 40:38Speaker 3: not at least the combvers that we grew up with
- 40:40Speaker 3: in the eighties with our lads. But Tom, now we're currently,
- 40:44Speaker 3: as you mentioned there, we're at a place where if
- 40:47Speaker 3: you're bald and you don't want to be, you don't
- 40:49Speaker 3: have to be. If you got two grand credit youngon
- 40:52Speaker 3: Credit Union, give you two grand of alone, start all
- 40:54Speaker 3: over there. To our pals in Turkey and you'll get
- 40:57Speaker 3: the hair punched into the top of your head. And
- 40:59Speaker 3: as you say yourself, and I wasn't aware of that.
- 41:01Speaker 3: I wasn't aware that you had to eat seven seas
- 41:03Speaker 3: every day to Oh no, it's not.
- 41:05Speaker 1: That it's it's it's a chemical. But here's the thing,
- 41:07Speaker 1: as Jim Jeffery talked about on one of his specials,
- 41:09Speaker 1: he went, and here's the fucking thing. You've got to
- 41:12Speaker 1: take four of these tablets or three of these tablets
- 41:14Speaker 1: every day and after about two years they've had such
- 41:16Speaker 1: an effect on your body. Your cockstock's working. So what
- 41:19Speaker 1: you do is you back it down and to a
- 41:21Speaker 1: certain point, but you hope that your hair won't work
- 41:23Speaker 1: out fall out. Yes, your dick starts working, but now
- 41:25Speaker 1: you've gone ball again. You're an ugly bastard, so you've
- 41:27Speaker 1: got no use for your dick anyway. You know, it
- 41:28Speaker 1: was a vicious cycle. I was like Jim, I know
- 41:31Speaker 1: which one I'd be fucking Tuesday.
- 41:33Speaker 3: And now, to be honest with you, the one I
- 41:35Speaker 3: can see in front of me. Not for not right.
- 41:37Speaker 3: Here's the other thing, Tom. We've we've seen a couple
- 41:39Speaker 3: of stages in this like, do you remember hair plugs?
- 41:43Speaker 3: I do, and I remember hearing of them. I think
- 41:46Speaker 3: they were beyond the They were beyond the affordability of
- 41:50Speaker 3: the regular Irish man, because it seems to me that
- 41:53Speaker 3: you can go to Turkey and get hair pretty cheap.
- 41:55Speaker 3: But hair plugs was fake hair drilled into your head.
- 42:00Speaker 1: You look like it looked like dull hair.
- 42:02Speaker 3: Dull hair, that's right. So we've seen that come and
- 42:07Speaker 3: go in our time. If anybody out there has, you know,
- 42:09Speaker 3: in the mid two thousands, in that post nine to eleven,
- 42:12Speaker 3: Funk gotten sad enough to say, God, I'll get a
- 42:15Speaker 3: little bit of dull hair punched into my head. Let
- 42:18Speaker 3: us know how that worked out, because I don't think
- 42:19Speaker 3: anybody gets that anymore.
- 42:21Speaker 1: Oh no, I'd say everybody died as a result of
- 42:24Speaker 1: that chart. There is no way like drilling down it,
- 42:28Speaker 1: like I know it isn't. I don't like what I'm
- 42:32Speaker 1: seeing from lads come, you know, coming back from Turkey,
- 42:35Speaker 1: because now your head is one giant scab and it's
- 42:37Speaker 1: just drawn out.
- 42:41Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 42:41Speaker 1: It's like you know, when you see too much face
- 42:43Speaker 1: lifts going on, you're like, oh, we know you got
- 42:46Speaker 1: a facelift, so now we just don't know what age
- 42:48Speaker 1: you are. Fully, we just know that you were old
- 42:50Speaker 1: enough to think that you needed to get shit done,
- 42:52Speaker 1: Like how about you just lean into it?
- 42:53Speaker 3: Like I don't know how to I don't know how
- 42:55Speaker 3: to react to people that have had their hair done,
- 42:57Speaker 3: Like I don't know what I can say. I don't know.
- 43:00Speaker 3: I don't want to say it's nice, no one, congratulations,
- 43:04Speaker 3: it's just now you didn't give bert. It's like, oh
- 43:07Speaker 3: so hair, huh? How about that? Well done? You know,
- 43:13Speaker 3: it's not like you know, if someone gets into this
- 43:14Speaker 3: one someone drops a load of money on a new
- 43:16Speaker 3: cars like oh yeah, which you're about to help the
- 43:18Speaker 3: drive it, and you know between the ditches and all
- 43:21Speaker 3: this kind but like someone comes back and says, I
- 43:22Speaker 3: dropped five grand on ahead of hair. I'm like, here's
- 43:27Speaker 3: I don't.
- 43:28Speaker 1: I'm sure felt More and more fellows are talking about
- 43:30Speaker 1: it now and stuff like that, but it's almost like
- 43:31Speaker 1: there is a shame to it, and I gotta say
- 43:34Speaker 1: degree yeah. Versus say your mate who has been losing
- 43:37Speaker 1: his hair this long time and you meet him in
- 43:39Speaker 1: the pub and he's just shaved it down to the metal.
- 43:41Speaker 1: You're like, good man, well you're immediately. Any bloke is
- 43:45Speaker 1: immediate is going to go well done. That looks ten
- 43:47Speaker 1: times you know what I'm.
- 43:49Speaker 3: Going to tell you. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you pulled the
- 43:51Speaker 3: chain on that one. Yeah, and it looks far better. Yeah,
- 43:54Speaker 3: and you know much're better off without it. I got
- 43:56Speaker 3: a you know, I've got a bunch of pals that
- 43:58Speaker 3: are bolding, like fucking it suits them so well, it's
- 44:01Speaker 3: like well done. Yeah. They done around and go like, ohy.
- 44:04Speaker 3: I went over to Turkey and got like hair drilled
- 44:07Speaker 3: into my head. I was like, I don't know about
- 44:08Speaker 3: that now, buddy.
- 44:09Speaker 1: Now there was one guy all right, And I know
- 44:11Speaker 1: this is to remember it because we're kind of talking
- 44:13Speaker 1: a bit more modern at the minute, but it fluctuates.
- 44:15Speaker 3: But don't worry. We have some other matchhet we remember
- 44:17Speaker 3: from down through the years.
- 44:18Speaker 1: There was an out let up the road right now.
- 44:20Speaker 1: I asked my mother in law about this. I'm like,
- 44:22Speaker 1: was this a thing?
- 44:23Speaker 3: All right?
- 44:23Speaker 1: Now? You talk about a combover and I'll get into
- 44:25Speaker 1: some of my favorite comovers in a minute. Excuse me.
- 44:31Speaker 1: There was a chap up the road here and nobody
- 44:33Speaker 1: could work out what was going on. He didn't he
- 44:35Speaker 1: drove it. He had a small farm and he's a
- 44:37Speaker 1: small attractor, but he seemed to cycle everywhere in the wellies.
- 44:41Speaker 1: Now he must have had some level of vanity about it,
- 44:43Speaker 1: because well you'd normally see him in the typical owl
- 44:45Speaker 1: at Beanie, you know, they all had every so often
- 44:48Speaker 1: in masses especially, you'd see what I can only describe
- 44:52Speaker 1: her as a cowshit on to visits. And I asked her,
- 45:02Speaker 1: I said, what am I looking at? There? She goes.
- 45:04Speaker 1: What I think you might have been looking at?
- 45:06Speaker 3: Was?
- 45:06Speaker 1: She goes, have you ever seen a big tick dreadlock?
- 45:10Speaker 3: What? She goes?
- 45:12Speaker 1: What the chances are he just braided that round in
- 45:16Speaker 1: a circle, around and around into like a basically a
- 45:20Speaker 1: cinnamon bun of shit on top of his head, and
- 45:23Speaker 1: it just got dirtier and dirtier and dirtier, and there
- 45:26Speaker 1: probably is no washing it now. It's probably fucking slidified
- 45:29Speaker 1: on top.
- 45:29Speaker 3: Of his head. He's just got a coil of rope,
- 45:32Speaker 3: a coil.
- 45:33Speaker 1: Of shitty, dirty hair rope on top of his head.
- 45:38Speaker 1: But when I asked her, goes, oh, she goes, oh yeah.
- 45:40Speaker 1: But the lads would typically come up every six months,
- 45:43Speaker 1: but they wouldn't have touched it and we would kind
- 45:45Speaker 1: of put it in place and they would glue. This
- 45:49Speaker 1: was taking the comb over, or the lads would handle
- 45:51Speaker 1: their own comovers. Literally, they would take their comb out.
- 45:53Speaker 1: If you're if the video is working, you can see
- 45:55Speaker 1: what I'm doing, and you're just combing from one side
- 45:57Speaker 1: to the other. You're dragging from east to west straight
- 46:01Speaker 1: down Tomer Simpson's style. Glue it down with some good
- 46:04Speaker 1: quality hair wax, brill cream, something good and you know
- 46:09Speaker 1: good and donkey. That'll keep it down for the day.
- 46:12Speaker 1: Started on a daily basis, these lads would go for
- 46:14Speaker 1: a semi permanent jellyby and they would go to somebody
- 46:18Speaker 1: like her in Dublin. They would wash out like a
- 46:21Speaker 1: fucking two foot of hair and then coil it round
- 46:25Speaker 1: and make it like a boofall like Patty a patty,
- 46:29Speaker 1: but they curl it up and it looked it looked
- 46:31Speaker 1: like an Elvis thing. And then they would they would
- 46:35Speaker 1: spray would basically scotch tape spray, scotch spray, spray. It's
- 46:41Speaker 1: locked in place and go see you in six months.
- 46:44Speaker 1: Try to mind it and the lads would mind it
- 46:47Speaker 1: at all. It would grow a bit underneath it. It
- 46:50Speaker 1: would move, it would each they'd just thrown out hat
- 46:53Speaker 1: on it. Then after a while and it just gets
- 46:55Speaker 1: oily and dirty.
- 46:56Speaker 3: And because as well, tell my God to tell you
- 46:59Speaker 3: some of these gentlemen might be agricultural in nature.
- 47:03Speaker 1: Oh no, juir, there's not a mite here. Oh yeah,
- 47:07Speaker 1: or some one hundred one percent of these lads. And
- 47:13Speaker 1: I'll give you this scenario for anybody's going to ask
- 47:15Speaker 1: fucking weird bastards, I'll tell you, And this will come
- 47:18Speaker 1: up again and Tom and Jerry show and I'm going
- 47:19Speaker 1: to make reference to this point, and i want you
- 47:21Speaker 1: to bookmark this in especially in the country in the
- 47:27Speaker 1: seventies and eighties, there were and sixties there was an
- 47:31Speaker 1: absolute flight of earls when it came to women leaving
- 47:36Speaker 1: the giant and all heading to Dublin, head in the cities,
- 47:39Speaker 1: head into England, head into America. And then there'd be
- 47:43Speaker 1: three sons. One will go off to be a teacher,
- 47:45Speaker 1: one go off to be a priest. Invariably would move
- 47:48Speaker 1: to someplace populated, and the youngest, poor bastard would be
- 47:51Speaker 1: left to mind Mammy and Daddy and the ninety acres
- 47:53Speaker 1: at home and cut a bit a few SuDS of turf,
- 47:55Speaker 1: and where he would end up is fifty eight years
- 47:57Speaker 1: of age with a coile of shits, not to have
- 47:59Speaker 1: his head, and never a look of a woman ever
- 48:03Speaker 1: would have ever come come his way. So the poor
- 48:05Speaker 1: old bastards were just left opportunity lists. There was no woman,
- 48:09Speaker 1: and if there was, you probably weren't going to be
- 48:13Speaker 1: front and center to get.
- 48:14Speaker 3: It front and line title, like you know, yeah, if
- 48:17Speaker 3: you're going to stand with any chance whatsoever, a dissemblance
- 48:21Speaker 3: of hair on your head mightn't hurt. Here's another couple
- 48:24Speaker 3: of hair topics time that we've seen come and we've
- 48:27Speaker 3: seen go, because we've seen every hair tonic and pill
- 48:29Speaker 3: and everything like this advertised us and keep hair in
- 48:32Speaker 3: our heads. We've seen all the row games and they.
- 48:34Speaker 1: Still get a thrown at me. But I think they're given.
- 48:36Speaker 1: They're shoo yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah, they're giving up
- 48:40Speaker 1: of late.
- 48:41Speaker 3: Here's here's one that I used to watch infomercials for
- 48:44Speaker 3: tom like if you get home Scotter the night and
- 48:47Speaker 3: when they were finished trying to sell your time masters
- 48:49Speaker 3: and all this kind of crack hair in a can.
- 48:53Speaker 3: Did you ever see that?
- 48:54Speaker 1: I I saw like an Instagram video of it where
- 48:58Speaker 1: they were just it was basically it was fibers, the
- 49:01Speaker 1: fibers through it, like when they showed they showed a
- 49:03Speaker 1: cross section of it being sprayed from the side, and
- 49:06Speaker 1: it wasn't just spray paint. There was actually some sort
- 49:08Speaker 1: of mini string ship through it. What's that?
- 49:12Speaker 3: It was like if if if if you willed minced hair,
- 49:18Speaker 3: so silly string, so it kind of like minced up
- 49:22Speaker 3: like hair fibers. So you imagine like you sweep up
- 49:26Speaker 3: a barber floor and you put it into a machine
- 49:28Speaker 3: and mince it up more so it's all like.
- 49:30Speaker 1: You put it all the ninja is what they put.
- 49:32Speaker 3: They put a load of hair in the ninja right right,
- 49:38Speaker 3: and aerosolized that.
- 49:40Speaker 1: I think we've invented imagine ninja hair like.
- 49:44Speaker 3: You see you know what Tom on the square. We're
- 49:46Speaker 3: not that far off what this ship was. And it
- 49:49Speaker 3: was in the can an aerosol can that I guess
- 49:51Speaker 3: also had some sort of gone or wax in it.
- 49:55Speaker 3: And if you had a ball spot, spray that some
- 49:58Speaker 3: bitch on it and it would cover up your balls.
- 50:01Speaker 3: But on close inspection it would look like you had
- 50:02Speaker 3: like a you know, a seboutio table mixture in the
- 50:08Speaker 3: back of your head. I don't think it was suggested
- 50:12Speaker 3: for doing your whole hair with it, like you know,
- 50:13Speaker 3: to spray your whole hair with it, and you're just like,
- 50:16Speaker 3: you know, a little cheat pet or some such, but
- 50:18Speaker 3: like it would cover up a bit of a ball spot.
- 50:21Speaker 3: And I got almost upsold on that again in the
- 50:25Speaker 3: same goddamn barber who was trying to, like, you know,
- 50:28Speaker 3: he was so concerned about my goddamn ball spot. I'm
- 50:30Speaker 3: i'a tell you that much. He tried to upsell me
- 50:33Speaker 3: on a little hair powder. So he goes, did you
- 50:37Speaker 3: ever see this? Watch this? Okay? Do you know the one?
- 50:39Speaker 1: And I'll tell you stuff. I don't just know what
- 50:42Speaker 1: your eye fucking know it, but I'll tell you like,
- 50:46Speaker 1: did you did? He did? He did you buy it?
- 50:48Speaker 3: He sat me down and he cut the hair, goes okay,
- 50:49Speaker 3: so he showed you know, we'll show you the back
- 50:51Speaker 3: with the mirror, and he goes, hang on, well, I
- 50:52Speaker 3: have you hare just watched this right? And he goes,
- 50:54Speaker 3: let me get your hair color, and you know, the
- 50:56Speaker 3: bits that aren't great are this color. So he poodled
- 50:58Speaker 3: around on the shelf and he picked from a selection
- 51:00Speaker 3: of five like colors from black that chests not or
- 51:02Speaker 3: whatever it might be. He goes, okay, this is you did,
- 51:05Speaker 3: and he goes watch this and it was just like
- 51:07Speaker 3: he gave me a little on the back. And again
- 51:10Speaker 3: it was I dare say hair put through the ninja
- 51:13Speaker 3: in a in a in a tal compowder form and
- 51:16Speaker 3: you and he gave me there goes now look at that,
- 51:17Speaker 3: and I was like, oh, well, yeah, okay, you know,
- 51:20Speaker 3: but again, what have I done here? If I shake
- 51:21Speaker 3: my head real fast or if I lay down on
- 51:23Speaker 3: the bed, is that all just gonna like come off?
- 51:27Speaker 3: I know, I don't want to. I don't want a
- 51:28Speaker 3: job to do every day. Because that was nice of
- 51:30Speaker 3: him to do it for me. I don't know how
- 51:32Speaker 3: I would do it myself, just sort of like like
- 51:34Speaker 3: tag it on in the morning. So I was like, no,
- 51:36Speaker 3: thank you, I won't pay every I didn't even get
- 51:39Speaker 3: the price of it. But I was like, sounds like
- 51:40Speaker 3: another job, and I'm not that pushed I did.
- 51:44Speaker 1: I didn't use it, but it was used on major
- 51:47Speaker 1: I didn't fully I had never heard of such thing, right,
- 51:50Speaker 1: And then I go.
- 51:51Speaker 3: And we do you got hair against your will? Tom?
- 51:54Speaker 1: I did if anybody wondered, that's Jerry scratching his leg there.
- 51:58Speaker 3: Or was that coming through a Sorry, let's say I
- 52:03Speaker 3: have an insect bite on mecalf.
- 52:05Speaker 1: List man, you've you've seen nothing like the fucking midgies
- 52:09Speaker 1: down here.
- 52:09Speaker 3: I didn't know that was coming through. I'm scraping it
- 52:11Speaker 3: with the little of a zulder cream thing here. Wow.
- 52:13Speaker 1: Oh yeah, because that's silent.
- 52:15Speaker 3: But I know I've no nails, so I just like,
- 52:16Speaker 3: I gotta give it.
- 52:18Speaker 1: There's asmr. Let's gone to do them again.
- 52:21Speaker 3: Again, scratch it lea again. But I only fans.
- 52:25Speaker 1: I'd completely forgotten about this stuff up until you brought
- 52:28Speaker 1: it up, right, And no, I I re remembered it
- 52:32Speaker 1: at another period. And I'll tell you, but I'm sitting
- 52:34Speaker 1: there twenty thirteen. I was sitting there. I had a
- 52:37Speaker 1: hinted the penalty spot at the time, like this.
- 52:39Speaker 3: Is twelve years ago.
- 52:39Speaker 1: Yeah, twelve years ago, right, I hinted, But I kind
- 52:41Speaker 1: of always did. It was always kind of tin there anyway. Again,
- 52:44Speaker 1: as I say, never address me, I don't cut my hair.
- 52:47Speaker 1: I can't see me from behind. I don't stress about
- 52:50Speaker 1: these things and they're dying my hair, right, because they
- 52:53Speaker 1: wanted they cut it up into like a fucking shark fin,
- 52:56Speaker 1: you know, to give roster Carl Kelly like fucking thing.
- 52:59Speaker 1: And then they dyed my hair into or they bleached
- 53:03Speaker 1: or they did something to they made it blundering, that is,
- 53:05Speaker 1: I don't fucking know why. And then they made the anyway,
- 53:08Speaker 1: she says, Am, while I have you, I got picked
- 53:11Speaker 1: this up because this this match is the hair coloring.
- 53:13Speaker 3: I says, Okay, what's that?
- 53:16Speaker 1: She went, Oh, it's just for the thinning bit of
- 53:18Speaker 1: the back. I went, well, I don't care about it.
- 53:21Speaker 1: She goes, oh, no, no, this isn't for you caring.
- 53:23Speaker 1: I'm just I'm doing camera.
- 53:25Speaker 3: I'm doing this to you.
- 53:27Speaker 1: The camera cares. I went, well, okay, And so she
- 53:30Speaker 1: showed me here before and after, and I have to say,
- 53:32Speaker 1: from seven or eight inches away it looked good. But
- 53:37Speaker 1: I'm guessing if somebody stood too close, they go that
- 53:40Speaker 1: fuckers his head up the chimney, that dust too, shit
- 53:42Speaker 1: is all over the back of his head.
- 53:44Speaker 3: Or if you're out for a few pints and your
- 53:46Speaker 3: lash and sweat dancing or whatever like that, does it
- 53:48Speaker 3: like traps all down the back and.
- 53:50Speaker 1: As we as you, and I well know we're not
- 53:52Speaker 1: the kind of blokes who uh would bring an umbrella
- 53:55Speaker 1: out or a hat. We would walk like me in
- 54:00Speaker 1: the rain with their shoulders up and it would definitely
- 54:02Speaker 1: run down at the back of your neck. But I
- 54:04Speaker 1: really remembered it with the panto crowd because all these
- 54:06Speaker 1: motherfuckers were taking up already good hair by putting this
- 54:10Speaker 1: ship all through their hair. I'm like, what the fuck
- 54:12Speaker 1: are you all doing? And some of who had neutral
- 54:14Speaker 1: colored ones, the neutral color one.
- 54:16Speaker 3: This is this is the stage. This is the stage
- 54:18Speaker 3: is a high def TV. No, we're picking up on
- 54:20Speaker 3: this and.
- 54:20Speaker 1: This is like you know what I mean? These lads
- 54:23Speaker 1: hair did look good, but they're gone, doesn't it look?
- 54:25Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, but who cares? When they cared, they cared.
- 54:32Speaker 1: They were Panto people act toward people jared. They cared,
- 54:36Speaker 1: but intriguing to find that you could if you can.
- 54:40Speaker 1: It's much like viagra. And I'd say dex was probably
- 54:44Speaker 1: originally invented to keep fucking combovers down. So is brill
- 54:47Speaker 1: cream to keep it maybe not Brillken, but decks and
- 54:49Speaker 1: these heavy duty greases to keep going. Because if you
- 54:52Speaker 1: can pray on I suppose insecurities. That's where the money's at,
- 54:56Speaker 1: isn't it Like.
- 54:57Speaker 3: That's that's where you're going to give money. I gotta
- 54:59Speaker 3: tell you you know what we can say. We don't
- 55:01Speaker 3: care all we like tom. But if you're out there
- 55:04Speaker 3: and you do care, then there are options open to
- 55:08Speaker 3: you now today. Get a credit union, loan, dart over
- 55:11Speaker 3: the turkey, get the dick pills into you. You'll be grand.
- 55:14Speaker 3: But spare thought to the pioneers that we have seen
- 55:19Speaker 3: down through the years who had to put in the
- 55:22Speaker 3: hard yards to keep their hair.
- 55:24Speaker 1: Who's your Can you have you any Do you have
- 55:28Speaker 1: any favorite home over so that you can remember down?
- 55:32Speaker 3: I have a wig hero, a wig hero. Okay, I
- 55:34Speaker 3: have one wig hero. I have one wig Hero. There
- 55:37Speaker 3: was a little man, an Larity, that came into the
- 55:40Speaker 3: hardware shop that I worked in, and he came over
- 55:42Speaker 3: to me, goes, do you have any such thing as
- 55:44Speaker 3: double sided tape? And I goes, I do, yes, over here,
- 55:48Speaker 3: and he goes and took him over to the double
- 55:49Speaker 3: sided tape. Now this was for holding carpet down? Was
- 55:54Speaker 3: this hooks?
- 55:54Speaker 1: And no?
- 55:56Speaker 3: No? This was double you know, double sided sort of
- 55:58Speaker 3: gummy tape. Oh, you know, not unlike tanking tape, you
- 56:02Speaker 3: know what I mean.
- 56:02Speaker 1: It was like yeah, yeah, yeah, So this will go
- 56:04Speaker 1: on to concrete, and this.
- 56:05Speaker 3: Will go on to concrete and you could stick a
- 56:07Speaker 3: book go to the side of a high with this thing,
- 56:13Speaker 3: right and and he goes, I goes, what are you
- 56:17Speaker 3: using it for? And what got him first was priced,
- 56:20Speaker 3: because I was like a twenty euro role goes, I
- 56:22Speaker 3: only want to I only want about six inches of it,
- 56:24Speaker 3: like the boys that say that, I will just cut
- 56:25Speaker 3: me six inches off the roll and charge me a pound.
- 56:28Speaker 3: It's like, now it's twenty pounds. It's like it's a
- 56:30Speaker 3: wee bit deer. Now, you know, I don't want that
- 56:32Speaker 3: much of I goes, so what do you? What do you?
- 56:35Speaker 3: What project are you up to there? When he goes
- 56:36Speaker 3: out for it's for how no wea going? He was
- 56:40Speaker 3: genuinely going to use gorilla tape right the whole wig
- 56:45Speaker 3: on his scalp and I and I said, well, look
- 56:47Speaker 3: we are now. I don't think it wouldn't be for
- 56:50Speaker 3: that now at all? Right, And it still I hate
- 56:54Speaker 3: to tell it to you, buddy, And I kind of
- 56:56Speaker 3: I hope I steered him right, And I hope he
- 56:57Speaker 3: was happy because it was it was the thing that
- 57:00Speaker 3: was becoming prominent at the time in tabloid newspaper. Tom stuff,
- 57:06Speaker 3: I'd never heard of a stuff that was known as
- 57:09Speaker 3: tip tape. If you ever heard of tip tap, which
- 57:10Speaker 3: would be what women going to clubs or whatnot would
- 57:14Speaker 3: hold their dress on the cleavage so that they fall
- 57:18Speaker 3: out of their dresses with the Paparatti's it wants to be.
- 57:20Speaker 1: To be, you didn't need to go into the full
- 57:23Speaker 1: explanation of it there to.
- 57:24Speaker 3: Well, I said to him, I says, look, I don't
- 57:25Speaker 3: know what this is called, and I don't know if
- 57:27Speaker 3: you want to go into it. I imagine a chemists
- 57:29Speaker 3: would have it, you know. Would you ever see like
- 57:30Speaker 3: the tip tape that the fucking ladies have? You don't
- 57:33Speaker 3: know what I was talking about, but I was like, well,
- 57:34Speaker 3: who brought this madness into the shop? Old? I don't
- 57:38Speaker 3: want to tape tits, But it's as far as I understand,
- 57:42Speaker 3: at least, it's sensitive to skin for holding on address
- 57:45Speaker 3: to your skin, so it's better than fucking gerrilla tape.
- 57:48Speaker 1: Yeah, well tape, by the way, it's one of the best.
- 57:52Speaker 1: We're not sponsored by grill tape. But if grilled taper
- 57:54Speaker 1: out there and they want sponsors, will be delighted.
- 57:55Speaker 3: You want to throw a couple of quid. There's your
- 57:58Speaker 3: who's your your, who's your He's your wig hero, Tom
- 58:02Speaker 3: is your comb over hero.
- 58:03Speaker 1: My wig hero I think is as as a result
- 58:05Speaker 1: of only a couple of weeks is Eddie Jordan. I
- 58:07Speaker 1: wasn't fully sure what that thing was, but it's oh shit, yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 58:10Speaker 1: he can make it that far. And but anyway, I
- 58:13Speaker 1: know my combover legendary come over all time has to
- 58:16Speaker 1: be Jackie Healy Ray.
- 58:19Speaker 3: Yeah, why didn't you bring him up sooner? Tom? Because
- 58:21Speaker 3: I would have saved us so much explanation to be.
- 58:24Speaker 1: Fair, you know there's yeah, just google him right now.
- 58:27Speaker 3: Please.
- 58:27Speaker 1: It's oh my well, Jerry will put it up on
- 58:29Speaker 1: the socials. It is the greatest thing that has ever happened.
- 58:32Speaker 3: And it kind of you know, it shoots holds in
- 58:35Speaker 3: some of our theories. We said, like, you know, these
- 58:37Speaker 3: are like Bachelor's last man on the farm, Sonny don't
- 58:40Speaker 3: go away, trying his hardest to get a little bit
- 58:42Speaker 3: of a motion in his life, holding on to his
- 58:45Speaker 3: hair because no Jackie Healy Ray has his you know,
- 58:48Speaker 3: famously shitload of suns. So he's like Mary does can be.
- 58:53Speaker 3: So he just wanted that hair for the look of it.
- 58:56Speaker 1: The ego sometimes like it. This ego can take over there.
- 58:59Speaker 3: I guess it's I'm telling.
- 59:00Speaker 1: You, but that was that's it's. It's something I don't
- 59:05Speaker 1: know if we'll ever see back. Maybe in a hipster
- 59:07Speaker 1: environment we might see it. But yeah, I do remember.
- 59:11Speaker 1: I remember the good old days of a good old
- 59:13Speaker 1: home over.
- 59:14Speaker 3: My word, good, the good old column home over. I
- 59:19Speaker 3: gotta tell you there you go.
- 59:20Speaker 1: I got excited when I saw it, you know, I
- 59:22Speaker 1: was like, you love to see it? You love to
- 59:24Speaker 1: see it?
- 59:24Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Well listen. If you don't like
- 59:28Speaker 3: being bold, answers are there for you. But spare a
- 59:30Speaker 3: thought with the brave pioneers that led the way to
- 59:32Speaker 3: you being able to get a credit union and go
- 59:34Speaker 3: to Turkey and get a hair transplant. Ah. Other than that,
- 59:39Speaker 3: we are gonna get the hell out of here, Tom okay,
- 59:41Speaker 3: because this hair won't fall out by itself. But in
- 59:43Speaker 3: the meantime, we want to talk to the fine people
