- 0:22be in a beat that doesn't it Tongue and I know we kind of talked
- 0:25about it before and it was a bit sounds a bit dirty to people that
- 0:27aren't and aren't in the know, But we're talking about the timber product to
- 0:30the timber styling, two bits of timber, the tongue and groove. We
- 0:34definitely have a DJ. You've got your headphone. I was just going to
- 0:38say, Tom, Tongue and groove would be a great name for like a
- 0:41lad that sings on account where a keyboard that fucking plays in a pub?
- 0:45Yeah? Yeah, next, tongue on groove. I think we've Yeah,
- 0:49that's actually what it sounds like more if we rocked in. But do you
- 0:53know, ironically, if we learned slightly how to DJ, we could find
- 0:57ourselves if we had enough nick in a beat to do you know what I
- 1:00mean? Tongue and groove a ministry of sound because people people wouldn't get it.
- 1:06Yes, the odd lad would have checked short down the back of go
- 1:08to fuck. I've seen them up at the fucking Shamrock the last night,
- 1:12fucking murder and hellcatchum's fuck. That's the point to rescue. Which of us
- 1:19his tongue on? Which of us groove? Tom, because I can't fucking
- 1:23sing, and I think I'm beyond playing piano as well. I'm I think
- 1:26i'm tongue. I think I'm too sing. You can think just I could
- 1:30hold I could hold it together for past the point to rescue. Well,
- 1:33I can fucking drop a needle on a record and walk off. I can
- 1:38press play on a drum machine, which I gotta tell you is about as
- 1:41much as some of these lads do in a pub. Hey listen, Hey,
- 1:44hey, hey, I see I've seen some of them, and there's
- 1:46a few of them kind of going hold on, now, go on,
- 1:49just because you brought gear witching your child, you're charging a fucking whack and
- 1:53you're absolutely mordern come down from them, Ount Gaiy Daily like I'm not gonna
- 1:59look. I look, hey Tom, We've we've got our Tito's entertainers,
- 2:01like you know, so we know what it is to go up in front
- 2:04from a pub full of people who may or may not be listening to you.
- 2:07But no matter the fucking worst gig I've ever played in my life,
- 2:09Tom like, I'll go for a point and they'll be a lad playing crackling
- 2:15Rosie on a on a guitar with nobody listening to him, and I'd be
- 2:19like, I fucking hate to be that lad. The only thing is,
- 2:22though he's not asking for their interaction there he doesn't like it, but if
- 2:31he could sing it with his back to him and still get paid being a
- 2:36stand up, you've got to stand sing it out in the fucking yard.
- 2:38As far as I'm concerned, we are rambling again to everybody, and welcome
- 2:44once again to the Tom and Jerry Show, t and g tongue and grooved.
- 2:47If you want to go off on an I'll fucking ramble with that one.
- 2:50There. I am Jerry McBride, he is Tom o'manny, and we
- 2:53are back for season seven of The Tom and Jerry Show. Season seven.
- 3:00We didn't just fade out with a disciplining thing climax at the end of season
- 3:02six like the Sopranos. We fucking came back. Tom. I love that,
- 3:07because how good would it be breaking bad or the Sopranos just came back
- 3:09all of a sudden, like you know what I mean, it would be.
- 3:13It probably wouldn't be as good, which is I'm not selling that.
- 3:16I'm Tom not selling us as good good here, but it is very excited.
- 3:21We just never go away. We're kind of like that fungal infection,
- 3:24whether it be is a climidia that never goes away, no, no much
- 3:28about it, Tom. If it's this, if one of them doesn't go
- 3:30away, herpes, herpes never goes away. If you catch it once,
- 3:32that's it. It returns every so often, and just like that, you
- 3:36don't know when before you know it, Tom and Jerry lyndon up at the
- 3:38corner your lip, I'm gonna tell you on your way out the date,
- 3:42I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna like spin off from that as quick
- 3:46as I fucking can. Tom. Right, just when you mentioned fucking stinging
- 3:52anniances, I could focus stung by a wasp, I could fuckus stung by
- 3:55a wasp, Tom, I haven't been stung by a wap. That is
- 3:59not statue, that's nostalgia, that's smoke. And I knew straight away.
- 4:02I was like, mother, I got stung by a fucking wasp on the
- 4:06finger, and what was It was as sore as you remember or more.
- 4:13It was like I gotta tell you it was. It was sore, but
- 4:16it was sore old fucking day. I reckon, Like when I was a
- 4:20younger man or a child or whatever, I was like twelve years of age
- 4:24last time I got stung by a wasp. I was probably stung like five
- 4:28or six times that day by nets, thistles, various stinging insects. So
- 4:33like you throw a wasps thing on top of your like shit, and now
- 4:36there's this, but like, my we soft hands haven't been stung by anything
- 4:41for decades. It's true. I got a belt of nettles not so long
- 4:45ago. I was telling somebody about it on another show, and it was
- 4:48it was a shock to the system. It was like, hold on,
- 4:53now you're like this, Oh where I thought you fuckers went away? Like
- 4:58yeah, you just faded into the backgroun out. No no, no,
- 5:01no, no, they've gotten fucking more vicious. I reckon because these big
- 5:04bastards, they were like down the back of a fucking ship that I was
- 5:09looking for a fucking thing for the old lad. And I'd say they were.
- 5:12They were like the fucking nettles mortor in that they hadn't been fucked with,
- 5:16they hadn't been cut. They had because you hear people say things,
- 5:19oh, young nettles are the worst. These nettles had fucking teeth. One
- 5:24of them are smoking a fag. There was at least fucking I'm pretty sure
- 5:29one had a knife. It was. These were the nettles that grow down
- 5:31the back of the ship. Nobody fucks with these lads like there were as
- 5:35tickets. They had trunks like these weren't steamy fuckers. They had trunks like
- 5:40you hit off one and you moved right, man, all down be fucking
- 5:46arm And I thought I only brushed off at his grant. You're nothing's happening
- 5:48there, and it's like it's like that. It's like getting flicked in the
- 5:51nuts. You know, you're like apps nothing as you as you mentioned flicking
- 5:57time. I got a song, but I'll tell you the whole story.
- 5:59I was along and then I noticed something fall out of the tree and get
- 6:02caught in the hair, and like when I went to brush it out,
- 6:05I was like, fuck, that was a wasp And I've just been stung
- 6:08by a wasp, but the fucking wasp was still caught in my hair.
- 6:11So if you're asking how my fucking life is going there, tom Be's in
- 6:14my hair. Tom Be's in my hair. I love I love the wasp
- 6:17to see it from the wasp perspective, like somebody kicks him in the nuts,
- 6:21the wasp nuts, like in the tree. He falls out and he's
- 6:25like, I'm fine, I've got wings. I won't even hit the landed
- 6:28on something incredibly soft. Whoa this, what the fuck is this? It's
- 6:31fucking not it? What the and his giant, big fucking pink paw comes
- 6:36at him is a tough fuck with that? Yeah, so I have devad
- 6:42stinger. Well I don't know if you activated or if I just like stock
- 6:45my hand on it, either as possible. But when when a wasps things,
- 6:49yea, his whole arsh comes with it like it's it's a prong.
- 6:54Oh I don't. I thought they could move on again, and it was
- 6:56only these a diet no no, with a wasp hold one, you'd have
- 7:00a dead wasp torso in your the little the little sort of sack of poison
- 7:08all lovely. It forms part of the bottom of his ars. And that's
- 7:13like, you know, so the stinger when you look at it on your
- 7:15finger, I could see that the stinger was like a thorn into me.
- 7:17And then it was like a little bulbs, so hold on you. It
- 7:21kind of looked like a mini cock and balls it gets it. I wouldn't
- 7:25say that now. It was more like more like a light bulb. A
- 7:29light bulb would have very, very shower. Do you know what's great,
- 7:31Jerry is that we this nonsensical, idiotic shit that we are talking back and
- 7:36forth to each other about. Tease up today's episode because if anybody, if
- 7:41you looked exactly at the title of it, will kind of give you an
- 7:43idea. But if you are wondering, how the fuck did I stumble into
- 7:46this? And yes there are seven now seven seasons, there's six more.
- 7:49To go back and have a fucking listen, None of it, None of
- 7:53the IQ points of what you've just come across right now between Tom and Jerry
- 7:58will in anyway. I luctuate it's right at mid to lower. You won't
- 8:03get much stupider, but you're sure ship won't get a whole pile smarter.
- 8:07No, we always we always said this was a learner. This was not
- 8:09a learning podcast. So you're not going to learn much about bees in your
- 8:15hair or wasps in your hair or so much. But I will say this
- 8:18much, Tom, This is you learn. You learn things in the stupid,
- 8:22stupidest of places. How all I knew about wasps right now when I
- 8:24looked down and I've seen this, we viol a poison in my in my
- 8:28finger. I remember back to an episode of Jackass when Johnny Knoxville was sticking
- 8:33around with wasps or some such and he rang the doctor to see what he
- 8:35was supposed to do, and they said, if you get stung, and
- 8:39you will get stung, don't pick it out. Flick it out. Don't
- 8:45pick it out. You think you go to pick it. All you're doing
- 8:48is you're grabbing it by the bulb and you're injecting the pison intire like a
- 8:52turkey baster, your turkey based, like your turkey based. Now you're going
- 8:56to get a bit, and that's why it's sore, because you're going to
- 8:58get a bit. But if you don't want to get the fold those of
- 9:00it, instead of like picking it out, just flick it off or scrape
- 9:03it off with a knife or a credit card or something like that. In
- 9:05the fourteen years I've known you, I think that might be the greatest thing
- 9:09you've ever told me. I will use I will use that for sure.
- 9:13The summers here and now I've got go get stung just I don't even need
- 9:16to now that you have put that in my university frontal lobe, wasps will
- 9:22hunt me down at this stage, and I'll be ready to flick and not
- 9:26pick. So don't pick. Very simple. I was very proud of myself.
- 9:28I was also very sore any rate to hold the listeners. If you're
- 9:33looking at the title of the show and you see season seven, episode two,
- 9:37that's one thing. If you look at the episode episode title, you're
- 9:39like, how are these focus are going to segue from bees to jail?
- 9:46Or we are the Segway Kings. We're the Segway Kings. We're just gonna
- 9:50stop talking about something and start talking about someone else. We are indeed,
- 9:54Season seven, episode two, Tom, We're sorry everybody that it's taken so
- 9:58long to get here. But by the time you hear these, we should
- 10:01have the whole season recorded and we'll drop it all weekly. We didn't want
- 10:03to miss any any gaps, so we are recording it a little earlier than
- 10:09you're listening to it. How was your Easter weekend? By the way,
- 10:13Tim, it's that fucking far back. Many eat many eggs. We have
- 10:22sun tens right now. How about that breggsit Tom Huh. I'm gonna be
- 10:28really sad with Fred dimnadies. That's all I know. It's gonna be really
- 10:31sad. Yeah, it's not that far back. It's not that, it's
- 10:37not it's not a course. Some of these are jokes, folks, But
- 10:41these these episodes that we we chosen to do because we changed tach in season
- 10:45six. I think it was maybe possible season five. There's also a bunch
- 10:48of bonus episodes back there too. You'll know we changed tech from just are
- 10:52running the mail magazine show that we're doing up until then, which had segments
- 10:56every week we picked a subject I sected in the most fun way from any
- 11:01everything from the the the the the same toot of Dolly Parton to the two
- 11:09part episode of a deep dive into the life of Steeplejack and step enthusiast Fred
- 11:15Dibna. Jerry discovered Jerry discovered moonshine throughout the world, and I discovered and
- 11:22I hastened to say that I taught people, but I'd said what I knew.
- 11:26So I don't know if that is a thing on how to build a
- 11:30house. Yea, So there's that. That's what we're leaning towards the same
- 11:35in this season. Season we'll be picking apart having the crack with a singular
- 11:39subject than this week's one. It's called what are you in for? What
- 11:46are your time? We took you to jail last season to discuss death Row
- 11:50Dinner when it's the great one. I still do tell I still to be
- 11:54telling. I don't know. I don't know why I still tell the is
- 12:00it was it? Is it alien? Or eighteen Alien War? Werner?
- 12:03That was that one. Yeah, yeah, that was hard. Listen to
- 12:07that, folks. That's give it away, go back, go back,
- 12:09And I'm not giving it away, but I still I only told the outlet
- 12:11about it the other day. It came up in conversation about the last meal
- 12:16at hor one. It just it stuck with me. It stuck with me,
- 12:18was like, oh fuck right, fuck it, go back and listen
- 12:24to that one. It's a it's a well fuck you two at the same
- 12:26time, alien like you know, fuck you you did a rack of murderin
- 12:31and all the rest of but it's stuck with me that one and this as
- 12:35you said, what he in for? So Jerry came up with this one.
- 12:39It's a great idea and something that fascinates everybody that made TV shows since
- 12:43the Dawn out time. How people have ended up in prison, Some people
- 12:46that have ended up from prison. Not everybody. Not everybody is Andy Dufrayne.
- 12:50Not everybody's the crafty guy gets in there and gets out of there.
- 12:54Not everybody is a crafty guy that's in on un lawful causes. Not everybody
- 13:00is a hardened criminal who desperately deserves to be in prison after our life of
- 13:05crime. Not everybody was shot fifteen times and the legs and dragged in after
- 13:11a crime spree that's spread across ten states, Tom. Sometimes people are in
- 13:16prison because they are stupid fuckers, which is the ones we love to hear
- 13:22about. Which is the ones we love to hear what the title of this
- 13:26episode is what are You in for? Tom? When it sprung from a
- 13:28conversation you and I both had, probably after we did the death Row dining
- 13:31episode last season, which which kind of it was like, if you're in
- 13:35the prison yard with all these hardened criminals, and you're in because you absolutely
- 13:41dumb fucked yourself somewhere along the way, either with stupid, ridiculous crime or
- 13:48just through your own absolute fault, and some hardened con turns rehnessses, what
- 13:52are you in for? And you have to turn them around and tell them
- 13:56one of the stories we're about to tell you here. Well, prison life
- 14:01is going to be very hard for you. Tom. Oh, you're gonna
- 14:03be You're gonna be wearing your your your pocket pulled out, you make row
- 14:07your hair out, and start wearing a bit of lippy, because you're going
- 14:11to be somebody's speech after you tell this story. Because I'm gonna say that.
- 14:16I thought everyone was just gonna laugh at it and pointed to Tom.
- 14:18But yeah, I don't have all this ship might happen as well now there,
- 14:20I think, Yeah, I think it gets You're not. Yeah,
- 14:26you're not going to eat your own yogurt for a whole year. You know,
- 14:31you're they're robbing your yogurt off your dinner trade. I like to say
- 14:33yogurt yo. It's like, how do you say it? Because there's an
- 14:39older I typically say yogurt? What am I saying? You're yogurt? Like
- 14:46you change it to why you gig e r t yogurt? It sounds like
- 14:50something Homer would eat. Why it's like, it's yogurt. It's absolutely,
- 14:58although my wife takes it down because she crime is going to kill the community
- 15:01time. No, my wife, my wife is we're at loggerheads altogether.
- 15:05She calls it yogurt, but then she is that kind of a person who
- 15:09says yogurt. No, it's I would love. This is where one of
- 15:13the few times we would ask, well we do we love interaction for people
- 15:16to follow us, follow Jeremy Bride, Tom Many Unusual, or follow the
- 15:20com A Jerry Show on We are on Twitter and we are on on Instagram.
- 15:24So do let us know is it yogurt or yogurt? Which do you
- 15:28prefer? Or do you like a good yogurt? Also, feel free to
- 15:31tell us about the stupid shite that you've heard of for people going to prison,
- 15:35whether it be Irish, whether it be Farden, wherever you're living,
- 15:39honestly, Tom anything, whatever you want to comment about what time is it
- 15:43right now with you? Yeah, there's no in the comments, literally do
- 15:46that's how simplistic and how much we love your attention. But anyway, I'm
- 15:50chomping at the bit. Jerry has purpose. We haven't shared notes this season
- 15:54because and it makes me very excited because I'm as much like he and I
- 15:58have my notes on people I want to chime in with. But really,
- 16:02Jerry has the bulk of these absolute fucking numpties, and I'm very excited,
- 16:07much like the listener. So I'm in a witty Jerry, would you please
- 16:11take Anna. I'm gonna take an a journey time before I started as well,
- 16:14I just want to say that, you know, you know, crime,
- 16:18it's not really laugh about, I suppose, and some criminals are kind
- 16:22of forced into a life of crime because of their situation and the life they
- 16:26were born into, and they were you know, some of no choice to
- 16:30get into crimes. So we're not laughing at anybody that had to be driven
- 16:34into a life of crime. Oh yeah, Jerry, do you honestly think
- 16:38you need to fluff up that fucking pillow? Well, you know, we
- 16:42don't have those kind of listeners, trust me, nobody has gone down.
- 16:45I can't believe these guys are talking about paper from disadvatas. Honestly, I
- 16:49was. I was. I was reading a couple of these, and I
- 16:52was like, fuck, say Glad, I'm sorry for you. Jerry.
- 16:56Should I should I laugh at this? Lad? I had to. I
- 16:59had to with a couple of lads that were just like, you know,
- 17:02you know, deep in it, Tom, if you know what I mean.
- 17:04I was like, you know, it's not ready to laugh at that,
- 17:06Lad, I suppose, But there's some name cannot be said for these
- 17:10lads. I gotta tell you, Oh, I want to hear about him.
- 17:12I want to hear about it. I gotta tell you in terms of
- 17:15equality and right right on this and all that kind of thing. No women
- 17:18on this list, Tom, No women on this list. Didn't really find
- 17:21any. Found I found one. I found one, and and I'll quickly
- 17:27just throw out and I mean, right up there, she'll fit perfectly,
- 17:32and she'll fit in perfect but a dickhead of the highest order. Yeah.
- 17:36And I gotta tell you some of the people that I have here, Tom,
- 17:38are just like shining, Like it was like, we'll get into it,
- 17:41Tom, We'll get in Yeah, Yeah, yeah, that's enough.
- 17:44Let's go to jail, Tom, Let's go to fucking jail in the stupidest
- 17:47way possible. Please. So I'm going to take you first, Tom,
- 17:51to Chicago, the Windy City, the windy City, the wind funny to
- 17:56say, it's funny to say it's a windy city, Tom, because this
- 17:59crime take plays in a muffler shop. Let's look at that. That's exhaust
- 18:04for anybody. They're loving a good exhaust. They love exhausts. In America,
- 18:08they have whole shops about exhausts and catalytic converters. I don't know what
- 18:12the fuck do we not have the same over here, because I know we've
- 18:15got we've quick we've quick fit and stuff like that, where they would know
- 18:18what do you call the like alloys and exhausts? There is, yeah,
- 18:25there's there's those aftermarket lads, but no, there's nothing to the standard.
- 18:29I saw more fucking mufflers. I reckon, there are affront for everything.
- 18:33How many times in your life have you ever had to change out of full
- 18:37fucking exhaust? And don't worry, we're not getting into the car episode.
- 18:40But I don't know those fucking muffler shops. I saw more of them in
- 18:42America than is rationally fucking possible, Like it's unless they've gone down some fair
- 18:49rough roads around America. That's all I say. Ironic for a nation of
- 18:52people that don't know how to fucking shut up. Tom to be honest with
- 18:56a ready, Hey, we're gonna take it to two thousand and eight,
- 19:00Tom, where this muffler shop is in the process of being robbed. Oh
- 19:03lord, Yes, indeed by a man named Ruben Zarati. Now his last
- 19:08name is spelled z r Ate. Now I'm pronouncing that rhymes with karate Zerati.
- 19:14That sounds nothing like yogurt anyways, and that sounds correct to me.
- 19:17Yeah, you've shook me with the yogurt, Tom A. You know,
- 19:21I was like, fuck me. Even Tom's living the accent. Things must
- 19:22be getting bad. But we wouldn't say iss a rate. Ruben's a rate.
- 19:27Not the toll would say Saratti, Saysarati, No driving at maserait ah
- 19:34any of're it? Mister Zarati, the Zarati kate himself. He goes in
- 19:41to rob this muffler store. I couldn't find the name of the best I've
- 19:44tried with my searchers here. Tom goes in to rob the stuff. Give
- 19:47me all the fucking cash you're having the register. They said, we don't
- 19:49have any cash in the register. All right, now, we've seen these
- 19:52fucking signs up. Okay, So if I'm going to rob a place,
- 19:55Tom, I'm going to case at first. Okay, Yeah, staff have
- 19:59no access to That's not always a bluff, Tom, It's not like we
- 20:03have fucking loads of access to cash. We're just going to tell people that
- 20:06we don't. Yeah, but no, Sometimes when they say staff there's no
- 20:10way access to cash, there's no access to cash right days days even two
- 20:15thousand and eight. People often when going into buy an exhaust, you don't
- 20:18get an exhaust for under two hundred and fifty quid. And that's a shit
- 20:22exhaust in two thousand and eight, or you know what I mean, if
- 20:25you're walking in with a ball two hundred and fifty, I've just seen credit
- 20:29cards left right in center. Maybe I reckon the people who tell the troops
- 20:32there's no access to the cash, and like maybe it's one of these Maybe
- 20:36it's one of these stores where like you know, you put it into like
- 20:38a you put the cash into like a big cake of surprising and it goes.
- 20:44I want one of them around the house, just for biscuits, I
- 20:47swear to God, just for several places that had that. You cash up
- 20:51at the end of the day and you put your money into it. And
- 20:52that was just the sound of heaven because once your money you win it up
- 20:56that that tube you're clocking out, You're clocking out. Lovely was so,
- 21:02where where was said cash? Was it down Norah's brah? Where was the
- 21:04cash if there wasn't, No, but it wasn't in front of it,
- 21:07But it was cash on the property, just the staff had no access to
- 21:10it. The only person that had had access to the cash was the manager.
- 21:15And everybody informed mister Zat, mister Zerratti that the manager is the only
- 21:21person with the key to the safe. And the manager's not here, much
- 21:25like Neville Bartos in the movie Chopper, No cash here, Chopp, no
- 21:30look around you, no cash here. So rubens Arati did what any fucking
- 21:34moron would do. He went out set in the car, waited for somebody.
- 21:40No, he gave them his phone number, Tom, He gave him
- 21:52his phone numb and he said, you see, when that fucking manager gets
- 21:56here, right, you give me a shout to you, give me a
- 21:59shout when he's here, all right, and that can't he'll he'll get me
- 22:07that cash. I'm fucking secutives here in now, lads. You here's my
- 22:11number. You ring me when the money arrives. And they were like,
- 22:17yeah, okay, you'll be the second people that we call, the first
- 22:25being the guards. And Reuben's alrighty, like I'm not gonna say he went
- 22:32home, but like he maybe like went down the shops or maybe he got
- 22:34another message done. You know. I love that he walked out of their
- 22:37going and he can't better ring me now, be minute he comes in.
- 22:42All right, you're not you're not lying to me yet, No, not
- 22:45at all, honestly, God, in fact, we absolutely one will ring.
- 22:49I swear to God. Pinky promised a lot. I wish that's good
- 22:52enough for me. And here's here's a few messages to get it. Yeah,
- 22:56I got Yeah, I gotta get in a couple of things. And
- 22:57here's the thing. It had to flash through misters Arati's head at some stage
- 23:02when he was leaving. Tommy probably had to think to himself, if this
- 23:06is going to be later in the day, when I rubbed this place,
- 23:07there'll probably be more money in it, oh, because they've done a couple
- 23:12of more hours of business. So I suppose it does work out for me
- 23:15that I have to come back here later on robbing place. I cannot think
- 23:18that he'd have that level of intelligence still, though, you're right, but
- 23:23I think that's even that's even the next roun on the ladder of intelligence between
- 23:30jeez. No, if he had that much intelligence to think about how a
- 23:33shop works there, he wouldn't. I don't think he'd hand over the full
- 23:37number he might have said. I'd be across the yard in my car,
- 23:41waiting for the fucker which the coun still call the cops to close the shutters.
- 23:48We're staying in here. It's a fucking it's a lock in. It's
- 23:51a it's a high not a high so a siege. It's a siege.
- 23:56We're all in here. I'm waiting here. Lit the fucking manager against here.
- 23:57He's like, no, I'm gonna go do for nine or twelve other
- 24:00things. Here's how dumb this lad was. Tom. They rang him to
- 24:03come back, and he fucking came back. He must been going back up
- 24:08along going those stupid cuts. He's there like God, Jesus, you know
- 24:12what it is. They're about to have money for me for fucking putting me
- 24:15to this trouble. Mister Zarati rocked back up to rob the place at his
- 24:21convenience, and the muffler shop was now full of cops and they shot the
- 24:26fuck out of him, but not so much to kill him, Tom,
- 24:27just enough to kind of let him know what time put a hitch to the
- 24:32giddy up, I get you, yeah exactly yeah, And and arrested him
- 24:36and charged him with felony aggravated burglary, and he went to jail. I
- 24:41could not find for her long, but he certainly they don't suck around in
- 24:45America when it comes to prison time period, like he could have gotten twenty
- 24:48two years for that, you know, like depending on the stage. Wow
- 24:53fuck hell yeah. So that's when you when you put a name to people,
- 25:00it makes them real, and that it beggars fucking belief that somebody's walking
- 25:04around in shoe leather that could have that level of fucking stupidity inside their head.
- 25:10You know, nobody ever said that you needed a lot of leaving start
- 25:12points to be a criminal, ton, Well, you don't to be a
- 25:15politician either, share. But you know what I mean, Wow, fuck
- 25:19incredible, incredible one. That's one time, and I find here's the thing,
- 25:25I find a fucking dozen stories just like that. People. There was
- 25:26a whole TV show called America's Dumb as Criminals. No, they got a
- 25:30bit seeing me after a while, lads running into the glass door was a
- 25:33bit. You know, same, you say me like, but Jesus Christ,
- 25:37like, yeah, I want to hear. I want to hear about
- 25:40the next one. Well, listen, we're going to stay in the us
- 25:42of it. I could have done fucking three hours just on comes from Florida,
- 25:45Tom, to be honest with, yeah, well yeah, yeah,
- 25:47yeah. In fact, we could base an entire podcast seven seasons exactly.
- 25:55Yeah. Well, and I hate to do the I hate to do Florida
- 25:57already. But this next lady is from Florida, that he's from cousins living
- 26:02below there they know full well, but they hitched their wagon up to this
- 26:06is This is twenty twelve, and he's a chap called Milton Hodges. All
- 26:07right, okay, and he actually successfully robbed the place. Tom, Oh,
- 26:12Jesus successfully robbed the place. Nobody's gonna say that he did not have
- 26:18the whereward all to rob place he robbed, He robbed a good And the
- 26:22place that you robbed was a place called Lows. Tom oh lowse Yeah yeah
- 26:26hardware shop. Yeah yeah, yeah, fine, fine, set up now
- 26:29inside there, Like Tom, I gotta tell you what, I've only ever
- 26:32been in America once or twice on the holidays, and I've only been in
- 26:34the presence of a Lows maybe once or twice in the middle of all that,
- 26:38and I've always gone into it, Like what the fuck am I taking
- 26:41home with me? Tom from a Lows. No, listen, Jerry,
- 26:45if you didn't go into that Lows like I was listening for a second.
- 26:49I so you were in the presence of one. I went JESU Christ,
- 26:52shouldn't let you go in? You'd like, in fairness, your missus wouldn't
- 26:56even dream used out like you have to your mister hardware. You have to
- 27:00stick your head inside the door. At the very least, I know you're
- 27:02not coming away with anything, Like I mean, you could pick up a
- 27:07box of staples or something and maybe fucking give them to a felt, but
- 27:10you have to go have a look. Yeah, yeah, you had you
- 27:12had to cheese and like, here's the thing with here's the thing with Lows,
- 27:15all right, Tom, Like anybody's never been in it. It's fucking
- 27:18massive. It's like a little town. It's the same if you're going to
- 27:22a Walmart or fucking absolutely massive right now. Fortunately foremost Tom, what I
- 27:26want to chat you about is if I was going to rub a place,
- 27:30if it came to it that I had to rub a place. All right,
- 27:33I'm rubbing somewhere small, yeah, right, Like yeah, I can
- 27:37go in and you can see all four corners of the shop. Last see
- 27:41all four corners of the shop. I know who's in it, I know
- 27:42who's out of it, and I know that there's the tail, and it's
- 27:45like twelve steps back to the door and out and gone. Okay, Lows
- 27:49is fucking massive. There could be a thousand people working in the Lows on
- 27:53any given day, like hundreds and hundreds of staff register cash register people,
- 27:59floor staff, security guards, little fucking out lad saying a Lodi at the
- 28:03front door, you know, like get cleaning out the toiler. Have you
- 28:08seen the size of some Americans too? Like if some of those Americans,
- 28:12if they took a fucking dislike to you, they've run you down like a
- 28:15fucking the bulls and papalomat that fucking time you're there, Holy Jesus Christ.
- 28:22Okay, Milton, like you picked a place to rob fair enough. Maybe
- 28:25it was the nearest place to you. I'm not going to fucking throw stones.
- 28:26I don't know why you chose this place, Okay, But what Milton
- 28:30came a cropper with poor plan and Tom, like anym if you rob a
- 28:37place, and I have never robbed the place, Tom, but if I
- 28:40robbed the place, i'd have I'd have been the lad like you know in
- 28:44the cafeteria making out escape Roots with the salt and pepper and the names and
- 28:48and you know, like in Connir, what's the rock represent That's a rock?
- 28:52You know what I mean? Like that's I've been making me models like
- 28:56fucking Brown of escape Roots. We've all had a busy outurday morning where you
- 29:00have to go to the hardware and you have to go on to the next
- 29:02thing. You've made a plan as to how the fuck to get onto the
- 29:04next fucking scenario, at the very least, not Milton. He knew he
- 29:08was going to rob this place and after that. His his escape plan is
- 29:12what got him into this list all love it. Milton h came out of
- 29:18those loose home improvement as its full title, and he jumped, He jumped
- 29:23the fence into the neighboring Cypress Cove Resort with the attention to to to run
- 29:30across the greens and and and fuck away off that way, like you know,
- 29:33don't go onto the roads. It be like, you know, if
- 29:36I was robbing somewhere and cart and I jumped into the new More golf course
- 29:38and fucked off about the place. Yeah, but there's no fear of a
- 29:41fucking crocodile fucking it and the legs of you and in manhun wasn't Milton's one?
- 29:45Wasn't Milton's downfall to him? Was it not? Because they show up
- 29:49on golf courses all the time? Then fucking thing? Well, alligators.
- 29:52I don't want to be corrected or I don't want to miss species him,
- 29:56but it's alligators and watch mccullor. But one if if Milton had done the
- 30:02slightest bit of research before was crime this teeniest bit of research, he would
- 30:07have noticed that Cyprus Cove is a newdest resort, beautiful right, very easy.
- 30:15After he jumped the wall and tried to blend into the crowd to hide
- 30:19from the cops that he wasn't the guy. When the fucker there yards were
- 30:30like we're looking for a man, and there was like this this this fucking
- 30:33we held play ping pong with his tool. Just turn around and go like,
- 30:36yeah, he's right over there. Again, did again in the T
- 30:38shirt and jeans. That's him. Yeah, did again in the T shirt
- 30:42and jeans. They're just going over by the by the fucking lawn darts.
- 30:45Yeah. Man, he was the only bears and wearing clothes in the whole
- 30:51fucking place. I loved that there was a newdest resort right next to a
- 30:55big fucking hardware Like any of the bean ques here, you go to the
- 30:59thing next door to it's either a cost of coffee, a fucking a pitch,
- 31:03a pit store. There's a fucking nudic I've been to some of the
- 31:08places that I've been to America, Like, you know, we were down
- 31:11in Florida, so like, yeah, I'm well traveled. No, we
- 31:14were down at fucking Orlando. Yeah, don't get me wrong. It is
- 31:18that kind of thing though, where it's like a strip mall and it's see
- 31:23this massive ball of twine, get a burger in shake shack, and then
- 31:29next door it's some sort of fucking crazy golf thing or whatever, So I
- 31:32can I can see it being well next door, Yeah, and there'll be
- 31:34a karate fucking you know dojo next to that. Yeah, with you fucking
- 31:38dicking balls out. But Milton, old Milton was seized and he got jail,
- 31:44and what did he get? What did he get for doing in the
- 31:48loads? Couldn't couldn't find it, couldn't find it, but it was it
- 31:52was armed robbery, so who can Yeah, it was double digits there.
- 31:57So that's twelve to fourteen years or that he had to spend in jail,
- 32:01wondering why he didn't just stripped down to his bare ass, bawl up the
- 32:07money that he's taken at lose and hold it wherever you can hold it.
- 32:10Milton walked normally. Well ironically he'll be he'll actually be practicing that for the
- 32:16next twelve to fourteen years and whatever penitentiary they put him in. Because but
- 32:22that story, he've been watching too much Ospale. I'll teall you that one.
- 32:25Not everybody gets sucking, everybody gets bummed in prison. That's not every
- 32:30there's one fear to stay on the straight and narrow. You know you're gonna
- 32:35get forcefully bummed in prison. That's just what happens. That's that's what keep
- 32:40kept me away from my life with crime anyway. Only for that, i'd
- 32:44be Robin left and right. Come on, man, I've never I've never
- 32:50been to prison. But like, who's to say if you ever have you
- 32:52been bummed in prison? Let us know when the comments? So, yeah,
- 32:57Tom, this is this is like, this is just neither of these
- 33:00were bad luck, right, Yeah, that was you know, some of
- 33:06these were outright stupidity. And this next one it's I don't I don't even
- 33:10know if you'd call it stupidity. Tom. Let's let's go through and see
- 33:14if okay, if if you can, if you can say, what exactly
- 33:19is this guy's great down for all? This guy being Levi Charles Reardon.
- 33:23Is he your relation to anyone here, any of the Reordon's here? M?
- 33:28Yeah, possibly, you know he's obviously I had a fan of jeans.
- 33:34Well, this is it too. He's he's he's in Montana. We
- 33:38like Montana, don't we, tomm. That's what we do. We do.
- 33:39We like yellow is that yellow Stone Yellowstone. Yeah, yeah, yea,
- 33:43yeah, yeah. I haven't watched Yellowstone yet, but I understand that
- 33:45it takes place in that kind of so it's kind of wilderness. Lucky bastard.
- 33:52Yeah, that's one. That's one in the back pocket. But anyway,
- 33:55tell us about Levi, Levi, Levi done crime, donet it just
- 34:00find Tom Okay, okay, he'd done the crime. He had every option
- 34:04not to do the time. He committed felony forgery. All right, So
- 34:09bad bastard. You know, bouncing checks deliberately sometimes. I mean, if
- 34:16you watch the leonard Ardo DiCaprio fucking story of you know where it's he's kind
- 34:24of the good guy. You're like, yeah, you're rubbing the banks,
- 34:27you're rubing whatever. But there's a suavenist too. There's a suavenist too.
- 34:30But something tells me this guy wasn't splitting dollar bills up the middle of a
- 34:34technical machine from Russia or whatever. But no, no, something tells me
- 34:37this was more more simple as like can I pay by check? And then
- 34:40like fucking off? All right, right, It might be mad to younger
- 34:45listeners that that was a thing, like like I remember twenty years ago,
- 34:51God, Jesus. Throughout my whole hardware retail career. To be honest with
- 34:53you, Tom, there were hard lessons learned about who you do and don't
- 34:58take a check from yes, yeah, yeah yeah, and a check in
- 35:00case you wonder what the fuck it was a promissory note, which is essentially
- 35:05what a note actually is. It doesn't actually have any standing value in your
- 35:08hand, but it's it is. It's a promised note of this is worth
- 35:12this much, and you could literally write your own number onto a check provided
- 35:15and it would be good provided there was this amount written on the check in
- 35:22the account. It was coming out of this like you know, this isn't
- 35:25revolute like oh Tom, like I will split the bell tonight, I'll reveluge
- 35:29forty quid in the morning and fifty quid in the morning, whatever it is
- 35:31this is. I would write a little piece of paper that came from the
- 35:34bank. I said, I, Jerry McBride, will we'll pay Tom o'mahney
- 35:39fifty euros, signed and dated Jerry McBride. That was it, Tom.
- 35:45I gave that to Tom. He took it to the bank. They gave
- 35:46him fifty quid from my as that if I didn't have fifty quid in my
- 35:52account. Tom got nothing and he could come back looking for me and where's
- 35:54my fifty kid? And I if I were Levi Charles Riordon will be fucking
- 35:59gone up the road, which fift in my pocket? Fuck you? Right.
- 36:02So there was a warrant out for this guy and there was a mug
- 36:07shot out from Okay, you know, what, can I say? Tom?
- 36:12He had priors as they say. So they had a mug shot farm
- 36:15like from a previous conviction, Okay, and they put it up on the
- 36:22if I'm reading it right now, they put it up on the cops Facebook
- 36:24page, like the cops in the area, The cops in America do that.
- 36:28They do that unbelievable. They don't give a fuck. They'll tell they
- 36:30talk all about the crime and everything. Afterwards, they go this stupid count
- 36:35and they'll write it on their Facebook. It's it's kind of the equivalent like
- 36:38they're ever going to spar and they'll have the CCTV, yeah, camera foot
- 36:45snap a still from that printed out on like onbolic stole or rake of fucking
- 36:50orchids. Yeah, and they'll sell tape in the front of the till going
- 36:52like you know, this man, if you see him, is a thief.
- 36:55Yeah, this guy, we have him on camera, like and the
- 36:59cops will literally you do that on the Facebook page just sort of like it's
- 37:02kind of like kind of like a crime what they called crime call that the
- 37:07guards come a crime call and they're they're yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
- 37:12yeah. It was a crime call or crime watch, one of those watches
- 37:14some such. Basically that only Facebook okay wanted in the Montana area, in
- 37:21the in the Cascade Falls area Levi Charles Reardon for felony charges and such like,
- 37:28but there were no closer to catching from Tom Okay until he liked it.
- 37:40Listen, listen, it can happen. You can be scrolling well you
- 37:45know what, you can be scrolling the problem. We've we've all that,
- 37:50We've all vanity searched Tom. You know, we've all stuck our name into
- 37:52Google and and even sometimes in Instagram. Instagrams are whore. You could be
- 37:59swiped through a thing. You could be just going through random reels whatever and
- 38:04whatever, your thumb less like MILLI second longer and you hit heart. I
- 38:07was like, fuck, no, I don't I didn't no, no,
- 38:09no, I don't want to say that didn't. Yeah, no, now
- 38:12it looks like a fucking creep. No, you just happened to show.
- 38:15But Facebook, you've got to actually go and like the fucking thing. You've
- 38:19got to specifically do it. There's no shortcuts and Facebook use. There certainly
- 38:22wasn't in twenty fifteen where you would accidentally double type of thing and it would
- 38:25like it. Wow. Wow. Facebook has been the downfall of a few
- 38:30fellows. Actually, as I looked into him, like oh Jesus, you
- 38:34know yeah, and and funny to say, oh, Levi, he wasn't
- 38:37the only person to do this. He's just the only person that get mentioned
- 38:39on Ireland's Slowest Releasing podcast Tom. There's fucking hundreds of lads that have liked
- 38:45themselves, are commented under their their their their their picture on social media,
- 38:52where like, you know, it's like, oh, here's the guy Robin
- 38:53is such and such a thing and he's like, yeah, that's me.
- 38:55Loads of people got it. But Levi was the guy that just struck it
- 38:58out for me that he would you fucking do this, especially why would you
- 39:01do this when he's one of these guys Tom that doesn't understand that your Facebook
- 39:05page is open to everybody until you say it isn't like my Facebook page when
- 39:08I had it at the end, literally just showed my name and whatever,
- 39:15pig. No no information about the school I went to, the college I
- 39:21went to where I worked, anything like that, fucking wife's name, my
- 39:24kid's names, anything like that, that was all wiped out of it.
- 39:27If you weren't a Facebook friend of mine, you just weren't. You just
- 39:30weren't finding me. Not so Levi Reardon. He had like fucking he was
- 39:32one of these guys that's like, you know, I had a sandwich.
- 39:35That subway here had a sandwich, you know. So the cops could just
- 39:39basically triangulate his area based on the posts that he had put up and nabbed
- 39:45him, picked him up within days, of course, simply because he first,
- 39:51whatever dumb fuck reason came along and liked his own mug shot. He
- 39:55searched that for sure, like he searched separation. But I'd just to fucking
- 40:00thought process Tom. But he sees the picture, he's like, oh shit,
- 40:02that's me. Yeah, Like is it tick caned Jerry? Oh wait,
- 40:07yeah yeah. Let's not take that away from don't don't give him the
- 40:08credit of saying there was a thought process there, but i'll tell you because
- 40:13it will slip out of my mind, and I only briefly saw a little
- 40:15bit of it, so I don't have the woman's name or anything like that.
- 40:17But she was a woman, and obviously she'd be young, maybe mid
- 40:21mid twenties or whatever, and she was such a fame whore that she went
- 40:28and robbed a Nebraska bank and she got away with it. She got away
- 40:31with six grand in casholay out the gap, never to be seen again.
- 40:37Right. No, She actually had a YouTube page, an actual YouTube page
- 40:45titled a video of her sitting in front of a camera with the fucking the
- 40:51cash, the whole lot. She's got the fucking the wedge of money beside
- 40:55her, and she describes in fucking detail how she did it, say yeah,
- 41:00yeah, yeah, balling in detail on her YouTube page, girl robber,
- 41:07you know, extraordinary and how much cash you got? The type of
- 41:10fucking car, which she actually spelt incorrectly was the Pontiac trans Am, and
- 41:15she wrote pt like, I don't know, she fucked up it up,
- 41:21but the color of it neverth and she was like, this what I got
- 41:24away with? Motherfuckers. Big weekend coming and yeah, yeah, not everybody's
- 41:31Bonnie and Clyde. Tom, all right, But Bonnie and Clyde didn't have
- 41:36fucking social media back in the day either. Do you know if Bonnie and
- 41:37Clyde wanted to release a picture to the press of themselves posing with guns on
- 41:42fucking cigars on the on the and the sideboards of that car, yeah,
- 41:47you know what I mean, they had to post that to the fucking newspapers
- 41:51and there'll be five states across the way by the time they you to find
- 41:54a fellow with the fucking curting over his head holding up the fucking the trowel
- 42:00or the hawk, the plasters hawk full of fucking exploding dust. Yeah,
- 42:06ah, fuck that one up. Sorry, go again, reload the entire
- 42:08fucking But this, in all fairness, that was an effort one thing to
- 42:14like, you go a moment of fucking stupidity, you like it, and
- 42:19then you can't you you're trying to unlike it, but cops could probably trick
- 42:22it out. This woman went and made an entire video and like our whole
- 42:25persona on the video was like, I'm a bad spitch, rubb and shit,
- 42:30you know, and Tom, these people in the prison yard. Yeah,
- 42:37how did you get caught while the chops the chops The cops chased me
- 42:40across nine states. I was hold up and I was like, you know,
- 42:45blah blah blah as bad ass shooter. You know, someone snitched on
- 42:50me. No, how did you end up in jail? Well, I've
- 42:53seen a picture of myself on Facebook. I fucking liked it all. I
- 42:58made it. Fucking I made cracking piece of content. Yeah, I mean
- 43:05we all do, like when our videos get a few hits, like you
- 43:07know what I mean. But at the same time, it's like, yeah,
- 43:09I got it, you know, I got it. What she likes
- 43:12as somebody to what she likes Tom is like, my wife's a great a
- 43:17great lady. In general, I gotta tie you. But in particular,
- 43:22if I see a thing and I'm like, would that make a funny tweet,
- 43:23you know, she will say she's not like my conscience or my filter
- 43:28or anything like that, but she'd be like, that's stupid, that's yeah,
- 43:31yeah, don't put that on you. But also I was thinking,
- 43:35like, I haven't looked for the video. I'd love to find the video
- 43:37and see if it's done huge numbers. If she actually had analytics, I'd
- 43:40say it's done huge numbers. Now, I'd say it was just like five
- 43:44cops seeing it back then. But you put as a result like say she
- 43:47made serious revenue, like she got twenty five million views or whatever, Like
- 43:52who is the revenue is that? You Know what I love out of that
- 43:55story, Tom, right, is that if there's been a bank robbery since.
- 44:04Right, Yeah, there's been a bank robbery since, and there's a
- 44:06detective assigned to the case. He's an older detective and he's got a young
- 44:09rookie with him and they're on the case. The first thing the old detectives
- 44:14say to the young fella, he's saying that, son, I want you
- 44:16to put a bunch of Credit Union robbery into YouTube and see event comes up
- 44:24for the past couple of days. The rookie is like, we'd never catch
- 44:30anyone like that, and the old guy's like, just do it, just
- 44:36do it. As he taps the cigarette. Yeah, yeah, we're not
- 44:40dealing with all the smartest people. Go in here, and Brian Denny,
- 44:45he just sitting there, just smoking. He's like, sometimes it's that simple,
- 44:50son, Listen, junior. While we're on the subject, Tom,
- 44:54while I was mentioning mug shots there names changed to protect protect the innocent here.
- 45:00Okay, okay, have you ever watched crime Call or seen a mug
- 45:06shot or seen some of these things up and you fucking knew the person?
- 45:10Yes? Yeah, so yeah, yeah, I saw it when we were
- 45:14in college. I'm not gonna I'm not gonna stay anybody's name here, but
- 45:16I am I do have a quick story about it. What have you got?
- 45:20It was it was in college and it was machinery robbed or something robbed,
- 45:25like industrial and they did an image up, an artistic drawn and two
- 45:31of us, myself and my housemate Mike. We went to school together and
- 45:37one of our schoolmates now housemates in college. He was upstairs and we were
- 45:42looking at it because we were drinking. We've we've found crime Watch hilarious,
- 45:46Like yeah, yeah, yeah, drunk hilarious because they were so awkward in
- 45:51front of the camera. They still are, and you know they it literally
- 45:54was like they don't believe. It was like and then there was I pay
- 45:57out our shows robbed down to town and you're like, oh, that's an
- 46:00amazing But then it cut to this and this fucker had robbed a lot from
- 46:06I think it was like an you know, an engineering works like and there
- 46:08was a lot of it was all snap on, good shit, the American
- 46:12brand snap On and Milwaukee it's gone and they snapshot they had or the artistic
- 46:16impression was very good. They put it up and I went, that looks
- 46:21like and he was a bit of a roughneck anyway. Yeah, Mike was
- 46:24like, it fucking is him, it's him. And we're both sitting there
- 46:28steam and gone, maybe we're wrong. We call Nile, he's upstairs.
- 46:31He comes running down and we're just both pointing, and he walks in and
- 46:35goes, that's blurd And it fucking is him, isn't it. I won't
- 46:40lie. We didn't do it about it because phone credit at the time was
- 46:45pretty brisy and we had cans of Whitesider to be fucking spend the money on.
- 46:49So you know, it wasn't a free It wasn't free phone. I
- 46:52don't think at the time it's it's it's it's it's not that far off the
- 46:55story. I have to tell them. I too, I was gonna say
- 46:59I did nothing about it. I did a WE investigation, did you I
- 47:01did a WE side investigation? Yeah, and I cleared the man of all
- 47:06wrongdoing. My god, oh my god, no, no, let me
- 47:09get this straight. Let me let me get this straight. Tom, the
- 47:12guy I thought it was didn't or couldn't have done anything as simple as that.
- 47:15And here's here's gold on. Did you did you clear him of all
- 47:17wrong doing in your fucking head? Oh no, I did, Sums.
- 47:22I had a paper trail. No was there a guy being accused? Here's
- 47:25what Okay, I'm moved up the Dublin and I had to go down to
- 47:31the garden station to get I believe it was like it was either get a
- 47:36driver's license signed for renewal or a passport one right, one of these things.
- 47:42And I'm doing the comedy at the time, and I'm here waiting on
- 47:45it, and there's a poster up on a thing, and I forget the
- 47:47exact crime, but it was something like assault on the streets, like you
- 47:51know, not even robbery, just like sault through a tomp of Tom and
- 47:54wanted for You said that very quickly, Jerry, assault, You said like
- 48:00you said, it sounded like salt. It just sounded like the man was
- 48:02pouring salt like he did. Think against Yeah, I know, he's yeah,
- 48:06he salt, and is your doing a service ice on the pads?
- 48:12No, it's definitely an assault. It was an assault of some sort.
- 48:15It was your play over the by, so so it was grievous, bodily
- 48:20harm. Get what the fuck was right? He smashed him, He's you
- 48:23know, all this kind of thing. I'm looking at the picture. I'm
- 48:27like, motherfucker, I know you, I fucking know you. And he
- 48:31was a comedian. Oh yeah, okay, the likelihood of a tough comedian
- 48:37anyway, but well, well number one, but this was like bang on,
- 48:39and I was like, you know, holy shit, like, you
- 48:42know, okay, get you in jail. Maybe I get a couple more
- 48:45spots. My first thought, all right, one less shark in the time.
- 48:53Yeah, yeah, yeah, but like I wasn't certain, like you
- 48:55know, because it's not often you see somebody from like over their shoulder three
- 49:00feet higher from security camera footage, right yeah, yeah, yeah, I
- 49:05don't know, maybe coming up the stairs the enter, but I was like,
- 49:13no, I could And I was like all the way home, I
- 49:15was like, fuck me, was that him? Like, you know,
- 49:19I don't know, So what I did tell I went back to the guard
- 49:22of station. The next day, right under false pretense. It's just with
- 49:27have another question. I you sure that y McBride fucking Brian Dempsey here right,
- 49:30just going back in with your sports checking on. Yeah, there's a
- 49:34couple of things I left out there last day. It's one more thing.
- 49:37But no, I had to go in with some real I had. I
- 49:38had to make a stupid content myself, you know, more so than usual.
- 49:42By pretending that I didn't know the signature was fine. I was like,
- 49:45you know, is the signature of that all right? Like you know,
- 49:47and they were like, yeah, it's a guard signature. The want
- 49:50I was like, all right, no, just checking this, check and
- 49:52just checking me. I just wanted to get another look at this poster.
- 49:53And it was before, like you know, I was gonna say it was
- 49:57before camera phones, it wasn't, but like you know, it was before
- 50:00clipping out a phone and taking a picture of him public was just a normal
- 50:05part of fucking life. Yeah, you've for noticed somebody doing you were still
- 50:08in the area where if somebody saw, if a friend saw you doing it,
- 50:12they'd call you a dickhead exactly, whereas it guys just like take a
- 50:15picture of every fucking bit of chooing him you see on the street, and
- 50:16nobody passes any remarks. Younger listeners will struggle to know this, But there
- 50:22used to be a time that if you took a selfie in public, people
- 50:25fucking laugh at you. Oh I still get a pain in my chest if
- 50:29I had to do such a thing nowadays, and camera technology at the time
- 50:31wasn't enough that you could do what you do now, which is take a
- 50:35picture of this poster from across the room and just zoom in on it and
- 50:37it would be perfect. It was like it was ship. So I took
- 50:42note of like the time and date that this assault took place, and I
- 50:46went back and I checked it against your man's gig listenings which he had up
- 50:50on his Facebook, A right to see if he was like gigging, you
- 50:58know, in the air. Because it was a Dublin it was that had
- 51:00happened in inner city Dublin. I was like, oh no, maybe maybe
- 51:01he was playing like fucking bullshadow whatever open at the time. When I look
- 51:08back and there was a picture of your man another great night and Belfast or
- 51:13in a skilling or wherever the fuck it was he had been playing that night
- 51:15and a grainy pixelated shot of him up on the stage, and so I
- 51:20was like, right, I knew you weren't in a skilling or nearly or
- 51:23wherever the fuck you were. Ah, so you couldn't possibly have been trance
- 51:29in some fucking pure counting Gardner Street. That's why I cleared him of all
- 51:31wrong doing. But again, you cleared it completely inside your own world and
- 51:36investigation. It wasn't like the guy's name was written under it. And you
- 51:39have no no, no, no no whoever whoever did the crime, very
- 51:45very possibly, you know, it's still out there haunting large, you know,
- 51:51so beware. As it turns out, we were one hundred percent fucking
- 51:53right. I can tell you, I can tell you. I can tell
- 51:57you exactly who it wasn't well, I can. I've for our three three
- 52:00sets of eyes, we all locked on picked the same guy. Your guy
- 52:05was banging on, our guy was bang on. It was yeah, the
- 52:07Robin bastard. And he got done. He got done for the whole fucking
- 52:09lot. And by all accounts, he didn't before the cuffs got on him.
- 52:15He they had to put the cuffs around the couple of pairs of casts
- 52:20casts arms. He gotta he got it going over right. Yeah, I
- 52:25had to get the white cups. Did they get the white cups? I
- 52:28think they just use fucking those big ticke cable ties just to fire. Yeah.
- 52:32Yeah, don't overtake it, Tom, when you're handcuff in a chap
- 52:35like, you know, for whatever purpose, doesn't know what you'd be doing
- 52:37their pile, But don't go for handcuffs. Fucking here's who's going to boast
- 52:39that? The zip ties? Nobody? No, the fucking rock you know
- 52:43what I mean? Anyway, we diverged because very much. That's what we
- 52:49do. That's what we do cast bad. I'm going to give you another
- 52:52lad, the dumb please of all the way into jail, Tom, because
- 52:58the low is a tricky thing, tis the law is an odd thing.
- 53:05Not everybody. This is what you hire lawyers to do these things, Yeah,
- 53:09to look after you because the exact ins and outs of what constitutes a
- 53:14crime may not be apparent right enough. You have the more thick among us,
- 53:22which is why a lot of these lads end up in jail, because
- 53:23like, fuck fuck didn't think that true, did I? Yeah? Yeah?
- 53:28Yeah, every days a school lager. Every days a school day for
- 53:30somebody and it certainly was a school day for Mohammed Ashan in Afghanistan. Tom
- 53:37in two thousand and twelve, sucking right, MOHAMMEDA Shan was. This is
- 53:45what he was described as of all the ship you could be pulling off in
- 53:47Afghanistan to be a stupid criminal. I mean, there's a lot of it's
- 53:52wild west, but anyway, it's it's in two thousand and twelve as well,
- 53:58Tom, historically not a not a great time to be involved in,
- 54:05you know, crime. I guess you want to say, well, it's
- 54:07agency. Some would say it depends on which side of which side of the
- 54:14line you were standing on, because a lot of crime was going on in
- 54:15afghanis standing I think who you ask? Yeah, this this neckline will will
- 54:21clarify what line he what side he was standing on? Tom. He was
- 54:23described as a mid to low level Taliban commander. Okay, okay, I
- 54:29didn't want to. I didn't with a name like Mohammad I Shan't, I
- 54:32did not want to. Yeah, it could be either side, either side,
- 54:37no, no, but in this instance, he's he's he's he'd been
- 54:39a traveling salesman from level Taliban commander. How do you fucking square that at
- 54:45all. As a command or two, you end up being mid to low
- 54:49level. I mean that's a lot of levels. Like what what do you
- 54:51what do you get asked to do as a mid level commander? Listen,
- 54:54you are looking after that, getting any of the big jobs. You're looking
- 54:58after the toilets, You are looking after toilets. You're being based being you're
- 55:01somebody's fucking cousin, and you're giving a fucking hat and a badge and basically
- 55:08you're shoving a light into fucking dark corners on a daily and you're just being
- 55:13told like he's like, he's like, young lads, here's some cousin.
- 55:15He didn't like he'd be like, here, you get to stay in guard
- 55:16at the base. Yeah. Yeah, And by base, I mean just
- 55:20fucking stay out of a way, Just stay out in a fucking way,
- 55:23because honestly, god, we've got a great thing going here and you're a
- 55:27fucking aged like you could suck it up. Don't do it stupid. But
- 55:30jare he did something stupid, didn't he? Well, he did he did
- 55:36plenty. Tommy did enough to get on the radar of the Afghani officials so
- 55:39much that they issued a warrant for his rest with a reward of one hundred
- 55:45US dollars, which I guess goes a long way in Afghanistan. Why is
- 55:50that country super I don't know. Maybe if people stop bombing the fuck out
- 55:52of it every now and then for twenty years at a time, who knows,
- 55:55oh, twenty years, you know, well if you will go back
- 55:59to Rambo three. Oh yeah, that there's been bombed for a lot longer
- 56:01than that. But anyway, here we are, okay, it's a poor
- 56:05country. But also fuck the Taliban. Mohammed Shan had a bounty against them
- 56:12for one hundred euros. We want Muhammad Ashan in jail, and we'll give
- 56:16one hundred euros to ever put them there. And someone showed up looking to
- 56:22claim the one hundred euros one hundred dollars reward for handing in Muhammadashan, that
- 56:30person being Mohammad Ashan. He fucking hold on that. I mean all to
- 56:37give the handing in Mohammedan credit there. It is the most popular name right
- 56:45now in the world, Mohammed. I'm just putting it out there. Yeah,
- 56:49I think it's been for like a In fact, in the year twenty
- 56:53twenty two, the most popular baby's name in Galway Maternal Hospital was Mohammit,
- 57:00there you go, there you go, with now less close behind. Ah,
- 57:05well here's the thing. Mohammed fucking strolled Tom. He had himself caught
- 57:12by the back of the fucking neck. He just walked into a fucking whatever
- 57:16the Afghany equivalent of a guard of station is. And he says, hello,
- 57:22I'm looking to get my passport pictured signed. There's Jerry looking at a
- 57:25picture of some Dublin cunt. He pointed at the poster on the wall,
- 57:31which was like Mohammed, I shan't and he goes that's me. Ah,
- 57:36please gives me the tone. I mean, who do I speak to about
- 57:47the I'm not one for red tape or fluffing between. Just give it to
- 57:52me straight. I hately reading all the instructions when putting the thing together,
- 57:55Jerry, I you know, I do. I hate it, but fuck
- 57:59me your own brain, surely, but a shit has to go. Well,
- 58:04like I said, legal systems complicated, Tom, it did. Do
- 58:09you know what's hilarious? It's like technically like you go, well, we
- 58:14did make an official So who's got the hundred quid I gotta, you know,
- 58:19I gotta. The legal system is complicated. I'd love like mohammeda Shan
- 58:22holding and sitting in a holding cell and his lawyer comes in. I know
- 58:25this is not how the process works, but for the purposes of this bit,
- 58:29Tom, his lawyer comes in and it goes, Mohammed, have there's
- 58:31a good chance we can make these charges go away. Now you haven't told
- 58:36them and have you? He goes, no, Well, I told him
- 58:37that was me in the post there. Okay, okay, okay, but
- 58:44you didn't take two hundred fucking euro did you. They haven't given it to
- 58:47me. I'm sitting here, I'm okay. We have something. Okay,
- 58:52we have something. A really good lawyer would like. We have told me.
- 58:53They told me I couldn't leave here, so I'm assuming I'm not going
- 58:57to the bank to get it to want to make sure I don't leave without
- 58:59it. There's a there's a there's a plane there that stops in Shannon on
- 59:04the way to fucking the island off the coast of Cuba. Maybe that's where
- 59:06I'm getting Yeah, yeah, yeah, I hope you like rock music,
- 59:10yes, you and with floors enjoy setting comfortably when you fucking are there,
- 59:16you go. They wheeled them up, and like nobody from like from the
- 59:22Afghani police to the US Army that we're on the ground at the time,
- 59:25could fathom why this man did what he did. But one summed it up.
- 59:30One US official summed it up when he was speaking to journalists later on.
- 59:35He just made the statement, clearly, this man is an imbecile.
- 59:44There is time when you do get military men talking talking to camera and they
- 59:47don't have that fluff or they what because they've just come out with great lines,
- 59:52like they clearly there's nothing sad, but this man isn't it. We
- 59:58could sit here all night and tell you what he is and he isn't.
- 1:00:00But it's just a simpler just to Talian, we got a dumb fuck go
- 1:00:07you know, wow. Wow. The embarrassment, like if you were the
- 1:00:10cousin that got him the gig with the Taliban, yeah, and for nothing.
- 1:00:15The embarrassment when he's over in guantanam Obey with all the other lads in
- 1:00:17the orange jump shoots and suits and they're like, what are you in for
- 1:00:21and he's like, motherfucker's promised me a hundred year old one hundred dollars to
- 1:00:27hand my ass in and here I am worse again. The guys who are
- 1:00:30over there being detained with no under with no criminal background whatsoever. Who are
- 1:00:36And they're like, they put pulled me out of obscurity because my fucking name
- 1:00:39rhymes with the count. I've done nothing. I've done nothing, and you
- 1:00:44walked yourself in here, you fucking donkey. They fucking smashed it into my
- 1:00:50flat and lifted me without in the shadow of darkness and whisked me off fucking
- 1:00:53eighteen hour flight to get here. And I have no idea how I'm here
- 1:00:57for I'm never going to see home when you fucking volunteered yourself as fucking now.
- 1:01:12Wow beautiful. So Tom, I could talk all night to you on
- 1:01:16the final Lessons of the Tom and Jerry podcast about all these idiots, all
- 1:01:21right, and how they landed in jail for the crimes they committed. And
- 1:01:25you know, I wanted to finish up with one that I read the whole
- 1:01:31story and I was like, okay, and then we've got some jail time
- 1:01:34at the end of this, and it didn't come to pass. This is
- 1:01:37one of the damnedest crimes that I've ever heard of in my whole entire life.
- 1:01:43And it wasn't that it was overly stupid. This person was far from
- 1:01:46a stupid person. It wasn't that he got caught in a stupid way.
- 1:01:52It wasn't that any of that kind of thing happened. He committed a crime,
- 1:01:55as we as we come to learn, he served no jail time for
- 1:01:59it. But if he had served jail time for tom I would fucking pay
- 1:02:05folding money to see him explain to his fellow prisoners what he was in for.
- 1:02:12Okay, it imagine like, you know, you got guys sitting in
- 1:02:20I'm in for burglary, I'm in for robbery, I am in from murder.
- 1:02:22I'm going for burglary and robbery. What the foks the difference. I'm
- 1:02:25in from murder, I'm in from assault, I'm in for everything. And
- 1:02:28this little old man comes in and sits, then they say, what are
- 1:02:30you in? Didn't come to pass to explain it to you now? In
- 1:02:35a second. The man I'm talking about as a chap called Thomas Harvey,
- 1:02:39right, the damnedest crime I'd never heard of him alife. Thomas Harvey stole
- 1:02:47Albert Einstein's brain Jesus Christ. I thought you're gonna say, Christmas, what
- 1:02:54Thomas Harvey is a man? I'll tell you all about him now, Tom.
- 1:03:00That stole Albert Einstein. Yeah, that gay all right? Not so
- 1:03:04Albert Einstein up the road from me, right, He stole his brain and
- 1:03:09kept it for decades and then got relulled and died before like I guess any
- 1:03:16no charges were pressed or anything like that. But again, I know it's
- 1:03:21a little day vergence from the from the pattern of what we've been speaking about
- 1:03:23here. But can you imagine Thomas Harvey sitting in gen Pop eating the fucking
- 1:03:28little tray of Salisbury steak with a plastic knife and fork because he can't fucking
- 1:03:34shive anyone in the Jackson. They're like, yo, Grahams, what are
- 1:03:37you in for me? But like Jen Percy your man and Bourdainstein there with
- 1:03:40the hair, Yeah, I never wonder what was underneath all that. Let
- 1:03:44me tell you. I tell you the story time, Okay, Albert Einstein,
- 1:03:49y'all know Albert Einstein. Yes, yeah, you're fucking all right.
- 1:03:52So one thing he did, on top of everything else he did was he
- 1:03:54died, m all right. And then after he died, he had to
- 1:04:00go for an autopsy. I mean, that's all as as as as it
- 1:04:04happens, right, So nineteen fifty five, after he died, he went
- 1:04:09for an autopsy. And the guy who took care of the autopsy on all
- 1:04:12that was Urman Thomas Harvey. He was a pathologist, and he dressed the
- 1:04:18body and such like and so want to support and so backwards and determined cause
- 1:04:23of death and all X y Z. And then Albert Einstein's body, as
- 1:04:27PA's wishes, was cremated and scattered in unknown locations about the place and spans
- 1:04:30of organs backwards most of it, Tom go on, because Thomas Harvey had
- 1:04:38cut Albert Einstein's brain and eyes out of his head before it left the morgue,
- 1:04:45and nobody thought to check sure, Jez, how the funk didn't they
- 1:04:51go looking for the brain at the very least to keep it in a jar,
- 1:04:54to go, Rah, this could be worth looking at when we have
- 1:04:57to take to look at it, do you know? Was Tom's Harvey's take
- 1:05:00on it. Tom was ahead of time. Tom was like, you know,
- 1:05:03wait, wait, let's not just throw this directly out lads, Like
- 1:05:08you know, let's uh let's hang on to it. Let's let's see what's
- 1:05:12up, you know, Let's see is it uh a quote unquote normal brain?
- 1:05:16Tom? Is it got? Is it the same as any other fucking
- 1:05:19jamoke wander in the streets? Or is there something special to it? Does
- 1:05:23this one have fucking go faster stripes? Some down? Does go faster stripes?
- 1:05:27Does? Does it have a larger wiggly bit? I don't hold the
- 1:05:30brain that well, Tom. The modula oubling, geta name me another part,
- 1:05:33Tom, fucking the cortex, the frontal cortex, all right, that's
- 1:05:39fuck. I wish where's my sister? She knows? I don't know where
- 1:05:44everybody fucking new knows. The middula oblong gata from Oh, I'll tell you
- 1:05:47water boyd. And it was like I did, Mamma said the crock.
- 1:05:55The alligators are just real honorary because they got all empty eating they can't but
- 1:06:00you have teeth. And the KFC looking guys down the front. The colonel
- 1:06:03he's like your mama, say, alligate his ownry d's the modula oblong Gara
- 1:06:12is angry and he's like ba and he basically tackles the guy through and it
- 1:06:17gets said three or four times because in that right accent as well, because
- 1:06:23I'm like, you know, fuck like that's why and frontal cartax and prefrontal
- 1:06:27cart actually no prefrontal cortax, frontal lobes. We actually do know a lot
- 1:06:30about it's probably sitting in one of those parts we just named everybody that I
- 1:06:36just well, they did the exact same thing. Listen to this to Weddula
- 1:06:41Bland, God, Mama, you know so uh so so box balls here
- 1:06:50he kept He kept Einstein's brain. We didn't just fucking keep it tomb.
- 1:06:56He divvied it up right right, Okay, he divvaed it up, and
- 1:07:02he kept like Einstein's brain floating like the fucking you know, the like crank
- 1:07:08the robot at the end of RoboCop two, a fucking jam jar or whatever
- 1:07:15or crank is a great one as well, all right, Like literally the
- 1:07:20man with two brains, brain and a jar okay, ah, Tom in
- 1:07:27his fucking house for decades. What you now hold on him was an inside
- 1:07:30in between the fucking the tins of beans inside the little pantry bit or was
- 1:07:35it like in the sitting room? Where was it that information was not?
- 1:07:42It was not It was not open to mmy but the whole Like, did
- 1:07:46he mention this down the pobe what happened? No, he didn't mention it
- 1:07:50down the pub tom he mentioned to anybody that would fucking listen to him.
- 1:07:54He cut the brain up into one hundred and seventy different parts and send it
- 1:07:57to one hundred and seventy different people. Who the fuck did he endedor just
- 1:08:01like scientists, it's just like getting the chunk of the Berlin wall. No,
- 1:08:06this is like you know, this is more like you know here,
- 1:08:10I'll tell you what it is, gass, And why don't you why don't
- 1:08:12you take that and have a look at it and tell me what you see?
- 1:08:15And know? It was too big of a job for one man,
- 1:08:17right, so we're gon chop it up into one hundred and seventy bits,
- 1:08:21and I'm going to keep a wee bit of it myself. Just you put
- 1:08:25it on a gear, right or something like? Yeah, I get that,
- 1:08:28And by and large and they all went away with all this fucking cod
- 1:08:31psychology and all this kind of crack and the little measure the size of your
- 1:08:35head, you know that the the phrenology, like the phrenology that's bumps in
- 1:08:42your head and all this kind and it's all like debunked and all this kind
- 1:08:44of thing, but this is like the fifties and sixties and all this kind
- 1:08:46of crack and they found nothing and the poke around it, and Einstein's family
- 1:08:55weren't best pleased about this when they found out about it. But I don't
- 1:08:59believe any charges were ever were ever pressed. It came in and around about
- 1:09:02nineteen seventy eight. I believe it was this guy Harvey was found out to
- 1:09:06have done this based on interviews he gave to the press himself in an article
- 1:09:15that was called I have Einstein's Brain. You know what, though it reminds
- 1:09:25me of there was a woman. It was two. It was last year
- 1:09:28and I think we spoke about it. I'm not sure if we spoke about
- 1:09:30it on the podcast. But she was suing this company. This will tell
- 1:09:33you on more but America can be She was suing this company that she had
- 1:09:39sold the husband had sold his body to science. You don't have to donate
- 1:09:44fuck on America like you get money for sperm, blood, your body,
- 1:09:46everything. And they got like five or six k before he popped his clogs
- 1:09:51body off signed him off. But turns out he wasn't going to science or
- 1:09:55to be studied, not really. He was going to basically a fucking gore
- 1:10:00fest. Let's call it science. It is science. But it wasn't like
- 1:10:06a bunch of academics sitting around in some theater. Tell me more, Now,
- 1:10:11what do you do when you crack it open the frontal cortex? It
- 1:10:13wasn't. It was a hotel room in Vegas where fucking thousands of tickets had
- 1:10:18been sold the people like I think ticket I think ticket door sales were like
- 1:10:23one hundred and ninety thousand, and basically they were cracking open this body and
- 1:10:27they were while they were given the talk and everything about it. And this
- 1:10:30is where now if you open the chest too, you see this gentleman would
- 1:10:32have had this. But a lot of creepy fuckers were going to this.
- 1:10:35Any Joe and his fucking with a super slurpie and a foc bag of popcorn
- 1:10:42could go and watch this, like throw it down a flight of stairs,
- 1:10:46you know what I mean? And then I think I ha'n't always been brought
- 1:10:50onto a couple of road shows like but they figured we bought it, we
- 1:10:55got it, and I was allowed to do about it. We have a
- 1:10:57receipt, Yeah, we have ever seen, but she was own them for
- 1:11:00that, going woa, you said, my husband was supposed to fucking by
- 1:11:04now, yeah, but now he was. This was to stop put lipstick
- 1:11:09on monkeys. What are you doing? And by now actually he was to
- 1:11:11be cremated and I must have gotten his ashes. And you motherfuckers are still
- 1:11:15making a killing off on the weekly, going from the fucking MGM to fuck
- 1:11:18it up to the sands and down to fucking circus legal here. No,
- 1:11:24it wasn't. It wasn't, and and so be with Einstein's brain. Whether
- 1:11:28anybody was like fucking pissed off about it tom or upset or against their father's
- 1:11:31wishes are ounding like that. It wasn't like they went around and gathered all
- 1:11:35the bits of Einstein's brain like you're collecting the fucking gold coins and pirates of
- 1:11:39the Caribbean. It was just a case and horror, fucket it's out there
- 1:11:42now. And Harvey, before his death, he gathered whatever bits he had
- 1:11:46left he had about I think he'd about sixteen or eighteen little fucking cubes of
- 1:11:53brain, like little bits of brain and resin like he says of an ice
- 1:11:56cube. He's like, I think that's it. I don't know. It
- 1:11:58might be another wee bit out in the house, but fuck it, I'm
- 1:12:00tired. I'm not going for it now and don't need it all to the
- 1:12:01ain same museum as Lucky. I do whatever you want with it. Oh,
- 1:12:04for fuck's sake, the dog is a bit of it in his mouth.
- 1:12:06For well, we're down to fifteen pieces. I'll tell you that now.
- 1:12:11That's that's that's where we're at the building. It probably wasn't an important
- 1:12:14part. I kept it all the easiers, you know. And here's the
- 1:12:16thing. Had his brain probably been studied with today's you know, it had
- 1:12:19been studied, you know, you know, it's kind of what it looked
- 1:12:23great, probably was a great brain. But in fairness, he chopped it
- 1:12:26up with a fucking kitchen knife to cunt and sent it out to let it
- 1:12:30seems to have reacted poorly to the magnetron or whatever the funk that we're doing
- 1:12:34in the sixties eye. It seems to have reacted poorly to being put into
- 1:12:38a paper envelope and just sent to some fellow in fucking Idaho. Yeah,
- 1:12:43these were all it has to be said, Tom, it has to be
- 1:12:45said. These were all learned men, but they all had to fucking know
- 1:12:48that what they're doing was absolutely, at the very least illegal, at the
- 1:12:53very worst, completely immoral and a betrayal of their brothers. Even if you
- 1:12:58got if some Fellocasia message saying here, I've got a bit of Einstein's brain.
- 1:13:01You got, you do? Yeah? Could anyway you keep moving again?
- 1:13:05You know, like relics like you know you I've got a bit of
- 1:13:08Quterpeo's glove from wherever we are, bless yourself. Yeah you do, Yeah,
- 1:13:12you do? You do? You can get one of that your pound
- 1:13:14chap over there, so just to let you know, get around the place.
- 1:13:17But there you go. And I would have loved if this guy had
- 1:13:19gone to jail just so I could have this little fucking ninety five year old
- 1:13:24man, which was the age which he died, the little ninety five year
- 1:13:27old man just sitting in the corner, fucking quittling something that we like you
- 1:13:30that would fuck with the other prisoner's heads, I think though they would.
- 1:13:34I don't think they would have crossed him. Do you like the way they
- 1:13:36went? So? Hold on, so you cracked oupen his body popped off
- 1:13:40the top of his head and scooped out his fucking brain. Took it home
- 1:13:42and chopped it up and sent it out to one hundred seventy one hundred and
- 1:13:45sixty nine people. Yeah, yeah, all right, pops, let me
- 1:13:48know if you need anything. I'm gonna be over. Yeah, yeah,
- 1:13:50yeah, look, yeah, do you want a yogurt? I want to
- 1:13:55do before we wrap up. I want to do because we ran way longer
- 1:13:59than we I want to I want to do an honorable mention to some of
- 1:14:01the fuck heads I mentioned. You want in Nebraska who basically grasped herself up
- 1:14:06on YouTube. There was two lads in Iowa or two the greatest fuckheads I've
- 1:14:13ever seen. They went into rob a bank, and you know you'd need
- 1:14:17a mask. You need a fuck a mask. There's various masks, everything
- 1:14:20from the dead presidents to ladies fucking hosiery to say you go at, you
- 1:14:29just go old school and go back like to have or pull a hoodie up
- 1:14:31with the little strings around your face, look like a man kind Kenny from
- 1:14:34fucking South Park. You could also use a black permanent marker to just draw
- 1:14:40on face masks on your actually which doesn't obscure you at all. Two lads,
- 1:14:48and they both seem like when you look at a picture of you wouldn't
- 1:14:51go two dumb foxx. It doesn't look like beaves and buddy. It looks
- 1:14:54like two okay, two blokes that could be working, you know, down
- 1:14:58the road in the bedro station. But the real killer was they actually got
- 1:15:00away because they had a weapon. They got away with a few quid from
- 1:15:03the shop, but they they realized that it wasn't like a kid's crayon or
- 1:15:11a fucking white board mark. They used good, heavy duty a magic marker,
- 1:15:15magic marker, sharpie. I went up the road and sure they still
- 1:15:18had it, like a day and a half later and they were out in
- 1:15:21public before they know, so they got actually got nabbed. It was a
- 1:15:26really easy description to give. It was, you know, it's it's it's
- 1:15:30the damnedest thing Tom like you see even like you know, there's a Snicker's
- 1:15:32Dad now where it's like you're not yourself when you're hungry, and it's a
- 1:15:35guy that's going to robert rob a bank or whatever with his house and they're
- 1:15:41like we said, we're stockings over our faces. And he's got like fucking
- 1:15:44fishnet stockings on it. You can just see his face, Like, Yeah,
- 1:15:47wonderful thing in an ad happens all the fucking time. Happens all the
- 1:15:54fucking times that these ads just rock up with disguises that either number one or
- 1:15:58edged to their skin. As you say that, you can't just fucking water
- 1:16:00from all big load of hand sanitizer stick a face in it for an hour
- 1:16:05sometimes like a lot of things, you know what I mean, I would
- 1:16:08fuck up putting together a computer because I would read and in misinterpret what I
- 1:16:13think means when I read it, so I can kind of on a wide
- 1:16:15scale, I go, okay, somebody heard once that if you put a
- 1:16:18mask on your face of any sort it would obscure who you are, and
- 1:16:23not actually putting logic to it. You go, well, I'll just draw
- 1:16:26on the mask and I'm away with fucking slay. Fair enough. But then
- 1:16:30misinformation can be given leads to lads too where it doesn't make rhyme. Reason,
- 1:16:34because there was a lad who wore I think he was he got fifteen
- 1:16:39years. He wore a clear plastic bag much like like he wore he was
- 1:16:42doing the blind boy on it, only he literally wore It's almost impossible to
- 1:16:46get a clear plastic bag, do you know what I mean? Even the
- 1:16:49bags in the shop for the benchimans are frosted to degree our frosted to agree.
- 1:16:54I'm trying to think about what would come in a clear plastic bags.
- 1:16:57It literally it would look like a giant, you know, a pre mixed
- 1:17:00preset pick pick and mix. But even yeah, like this had right,
- 1:17:05it had no writing on it was like a clear, huge sandwich bag.
- 1:17:09He pulled on over his face and again I'll give him okay, so he
- 1:17:14didn't understand the nuances of blanking out. But the best one I heard of
- 1:17:18a guy trying to disguise himself was a guy who got He got twenty four
- 1:17:23years because of previous for trying to rub a bank by putting lemon juice all
- 1:17:28over his face because somebody had yeah, somebody had told him up up,
- 1:17:34high up and low down that if you rub lemon juice all over your face,
- 1:17:41the cameras can't pick much like do you know those number plates that the
- 1:17:45young lads put on their fast car go faster cars that they reckoned for years
- 1:17:49or remember, lads would hang out a CD from their from their fucking their
- 1:17:55rear view mirror. It would it would reflect the flash of the fucking speed
- 1:17:59camera. Was similar to this. This guy rubbed lemon juice all over his
- 1:18:02face. The only thing he was told with if you go near a heat
- 1:18:08source of any sort, it'll like this is some scientology level of how you
- 1:18:14fucking caught me. Because even when he got brought in by the cops and
- 1:18:16the quizzling, and he went and they showed him the fucking footage of himself,
- 1:18:20he went, should that stop my face at all? Buys, you
- 1:18:23can't see it. You can't see my face. I'm looking at a head,
- 1:18:27but sure you can't see my face. And you got everybody including you
- 1:18:30in this room can see your face, not lemon juice on. And I
- 1:18:33stayed away from heat sources, so tisn't me. I'm denying the whole fucking
- 1:18:36thing, Like, yeah, Paul, looks like you're looking at some hard
- 1:18:41line twenty though it didn't have that squeezing. My favorite one of the whole
- 1:18:46lot, because it's a beautiful and I love a fucking touch of fucking irony,
- 1:18:49And this is nearly like something you would read in a very well known
- 1:18:54satirical online newspaper. One of them. Oh yeah, one of them.
- 1:18:59This guy in his name was I think it was a Charles Mosley. It
- 1:19:02was Mosley was a surname, and he walked into a discount gun store to
- 1:19:09rob encountered this guy somewhere along the way time. Yeah, I think they
- 1:19:12go on give me he I think he walked into a gun store lots of
- 1:19:17in America. He walked in to hold up a gun store with a baseball
- 1:19:21back. Like that's like something you'd do at a prank TV show, do
- 1:19:32you know what I mean, an extreme prank TV show, because it's so
- 1:19:35fucking funny. You know, you'd walk in with like a rubber hammer and
- 1:19:40go, okay, give me all the money. Yeah, and if you're
- 1:19:43a really sharp guy, yeah, he'd look around and go amazing, that's
- 1:19:47actually really brilliantly ironic, by the way. That's but like he wasn't the
- 1:19:50guy did it in Florida. A month or two later, he got he
- 1:19:56got what cheese? What's the Mosley get? He got? Oh, he
- 1:20:00got a like he got twelve years something because of previous as well. Yeah,
- 1:20:02and then they add years on for stability yeah, I did do.
- 1:20:05Sure, you're no good to society when you're doing stupid shit like that.
- 1:20:09But it was a guy in Florida. This was an Upper States. This
- 1:20:13is in the North, as they'd call it, but this is in the
- 1:20:15Upper States where there might be a bit more less trigger happy and more respect
- 1:20:20for life. Because this guy, a guy a month or two later showed
- 1:20:25up in a gun store in Florida with a knife, which is amazing in
- 1:20:29itself, then not to bring a knife to it, and he did,
- 1:20:33but he got shot in the fucking back in self defense and going at the
- 1:20:40shop owner got away with it. They went to clear it. Yeah,
- 1:20:42no, no, forget about it. But like, you know, the
- 1:20:44guy with the knife, I'm like, okay, you're him in the Okay,
- 1:20:46you're here to rob me, all right, the gay with the baseball.
- 1:20:48But I'm like, you're god to be fucking taking the bass. Oh
- 1:20:53no, you're serious, yeah, because that's like one return on these pitches.
- 1:20:59You walk in with an knife, You're like, Okay, that's clearly
- 1:21:01meant for killing. You walk in with a baseball bat. It's kind of
- 1:21:03like walking in with a tennis racket to a degree, in the same it's
- 1:21:08a it's for bab what man, we're literally were what are you doing?
- 1:21:14What are you doing? Yet? It put it, but your man from
- 1:21:15just took out his own literally slowly unclipped his own gun behind the counter,
- 1:21:19just pointed at mostly went yeah, listen, you're going to have to just
- 1:21:23sit down altogether, because put your man in Florida. He ended up quite
- 1:21:29very deceased. After your man just handed him the money and presumably he didn't
- 1:21:33have a gun physically on his belt, let him walk and felt his life
- 1:21:40was still in danger as the guy was walking out with all the money and
- 1:21:43just picked up one of their many many guns, many many inventory and just
- 1:21:51shot the guy a bunch of times. And the cops went first fair,
- 1:21:56which in a lot of cases. You know what, Yeah, some of
- 1:21:59these are I suppose they're like the dark One Awards. They're the darre One
- 1:22:03Awards. If he shot him in the front as he went from with the
- 1:22:06knife, it's fairst fair time. You don't shoot no man on the back.
- 1:22:10That's one of these one of these old West lows that I still it's
- 1:22:13it's it's I think the guy still felt threatened, and the cops were happy
- 1:22:16with that like fucking throw the knife behind him whose nose? There might have
- 1:22:20been another Nanniokley, Hey, they didn't go to detail, but there could
- 1:22:25have been another customer service person by the okay, he could have been going
- 1:22:29to stay. It could have been like and he could have been like fairly
- 1:22:31stabby with the knife, like he get that get back, you know,
- 1:22:34like those that you see that one that that meme that goes around every so
- 1:22:38often with that that crab that picks up a knife and cut cut, you
- 1:22:44know. So he could have been that. Okay, well, ah,
- 1:22:48he's not with us, but if you're a member of his family, I
- 1:22:54guess uh. And you enjoyed that story, share our podcast with your friends.
- 1:23:01You haven't we mentioned Hey, listen, it's he's one of the many
- 1:23:05Florida men we could have spoken about. And that was the guy we could
- 1:23:09we could we could have just not left Florida this whole thing. But all
- 1:23:12to say it, Tom, throughout all of those hard conversation to have with
- 1:23:16your new sealmate on your first night in jail as to what it is you're

- 1:25:11hurt my feeling. It's not that much. It's not. It's not and
- 1:25:13sometimes it's easy to show up. You'll know it's us because there's it just
- 1:25:17it says it's clearly us. Yes, indeed, Twitter, r indeed Instagram,
- 1:25:20Facebook, because Tom says he's Tom underscore Romaney, I'm at Jerry McBride
- 1:25:26or some combination of that. Tom will probably get you to where we'll be.
- 1:25:29You can follow us. I'm not that active anymore, but we never
- 1:25:31know. That might change. Who knows, well the big the big thing
- 1:25:34if it is. And if you are listening on Spotify, hit the bell,
- 1:25:38I keep on forgetting to see this, and some people are subscribed,
- 1:25:41the bell will actually bring it into You'll pop up in your phone as well
- 1:25:45as as some people are being saying there isn't a new logo, there's some
- 1:25:46ancient logo showing up. What you have to do for that, because our
- 1:25:49logos have changed. If you are listening on Spotify is to unsubscribe and resubscribe
- 1:25:56and then new logo, I'm told pops up. I don't know why that
- 1:25:59would make you feel. It's a dangerous game. You're still part of the
- 1:26:01gang. Trust me, we love you. In fact, you're probably being
- 1:26:04a bit retro for having the old logo, but the new logo will pop
- 1:26:08up in your phone if you do that. I'm just saying what I was
- 1:26:10told yer. I'm no expert in this shit. Do please tell everybody about
- 1:26:15it for now that and do it all, and do it all, and
- 1:26:18do it all in time for the next episode where, yes, what's it
- 1:26:24about? Who knows? But we hope you've enjoyed today's journey through the dumbas
- 1:26:28criminals that we could fucking layer Hanmazon. Remember, folks, the crime most
- 1:26:30day. If you don't get away the next time, good look and look
