• 5:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a long it's a long held thing. Paul

• 5:32
  Speaker 2: the knees, I'd be like if I were to do that,
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: I'd be like if it was just a fall on
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: a frying pan, forget all on a cast iron skillet
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: and smash anyway. Listen, Tom, we could give out about
• 5:42

• 5:45
  Speaker 2: about to move the show along. What do you think?
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: Let's do it. Let's do it, and we do, of course,
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: move the show along with some big news, Tom, the
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: week's big news. You could say, you know, just the
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: one story that popped up in the last news cycle,
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: or indeed be on as this case because this one
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: had been ten days old, didn't make last week. But
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: here we are now. But you know how it goes, Tom,
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: It's the scuttle, but it's the weekly what have you.
• 6:07

  Speaker 2: Jer like a spring roll?
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: Right? Yeah, I don't know what it was.
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: I was in America like five or six years ago,
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: and I had these takeios out of there and the world,
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: like I would say, put on the microscope that had
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: the Southampton sex and them. Now these were like the worst.
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: Oh for sure, they had the worst food.
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: You could possibly eat. But whatever it was, it just
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: immediately altered my brain chemistry, and I was just like,
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: that's all I want to eat forever, Yeah, forever, And
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: anytime them is be like, what do you want for dinner?
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: Like I can't say it out loud, of course you can't.
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: I can't say I want t Keio's like from Taco Bell,
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: just you know the way people say, like, don't smoke crack,
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: you'll get a hooks straight away. T kiros.
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: I think you know what. I'm so glad you said that.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: And this has nothing to do with tackle Bell, but
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: it does a lineo exactly what you're saying. I will
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: be asked, but I want for dinner, and yes, anything
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: that's put in front of me, I'm delighted with him eating.
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: I'm glad to get it, glad to get it. You
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: would know when the next bit is coming from. But
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: if I was absolutely honest, almost every time there's a
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: thing that I and this is Jerry, I dare say,
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: this is fucking this is down near twenty five years.
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, this pinged me.
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: It was a thing from a specific Chinese called crab rangoon. Yes, yes,
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: and I know if I if I continue to eat
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: the amount that I was eating at the time, Sure,
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: I was fine in my early twenties. But if I
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: was eating that right now, you would not have a
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: partner in crime here.
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: I would have Jerry Show.
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I would have died many moons ago of this shit.
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: You know exactly what it is when someone goes, what
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: will we get and you'll, you know, you'll say, oh,
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: you know, lasagnear do whatever like that.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: But like you're when you look out the windows, you
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: look out the window for your first split second by
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: yourself and go, Jesus, I wish it's crab Harangon or Taquitos.
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: I wish the case. Yeah, yeah, you can't answer that
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: because it's no.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: You can't know, because you'll get decided dependent on the
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: head warranted too, by the way, and go just far

  Speaker 2: It's it's it's the all day, all madness of it.
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: And you mentioned that the most recent and prime example
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: of it why the Irish can't have nice things was
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: Krispy Kreme when it opened out in Blanchterstown. Beside me, Tom,

• 13:32
  Speaker 2: if you go up there now today, pick your seat
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: in the place. Of course, there's nobody in it, but
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: just that initial hysteria, everybody was like, I got I
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: got it. Those people going for donuts at three o'clock
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: in the morning. And I'm gonna tell you at three

  Speaker 2: So I will go to Tackle Bell if it opens
• 14:33

• 16:48
  Speaker 1: be interested to try the fast food that are well

  Speaker 1: known in America. If there wasn't another, orsay, you go, look,
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: Tackle Bell, you're about eight on the list. You know
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: you're good, but let's see what to be another one?
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: You'd pick? Well, then tickled your geeker at some point
• 17:02

• 17:03
  Speaker 1: do one of these up the road.
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: I gotta tell you, right, we have everything. Now, We've
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: got the five Guys and the Burger Kings, and we've
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: got the shake shacks. I think we've a shakeshack if
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: we don't.
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: Another there, mister best Burger has taken all this kind
• 17:18

• 17:18
  Speaker 2: And now we've got Taco Bell and we've got Krispy Kreme.
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: Like we're running out of things to get across. Okay,
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: if you if you venture up to our neighbors in
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: the in the north, in the occupied territories up top,
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: you'll get your Chick fil Ase and you'll get your
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: Popeye is checking and you know, yeah, it's not nice.
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: So like, for what reasons? Since Terry I'm not saying the.
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: Thing, Popeye is, what can I tell you? And like
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: I understand there's a Wendy's coming back here, so like
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: we're running out of places to get in Ireland, and again,
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: who cares right a border to Borger at this date.
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: But I'm gonna have to say tom as you mentioned
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: it there and go a bit of crab rangoon. So
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: let's get Panda Express over here.
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah.
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: Let's get Panda Expressed over here. I can get Borbergs
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: anywhere I want, kicking Burgers out of the way. They're
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: all the same to me, very like there was there
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: was a it was I don't know.
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: It was a rip off for a very similar thing
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: in a red lobster I had one time, and it
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: was like, you know, a crab pad whatever. It was
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: like a crab cake, you know, but it was very
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: crab rangoonish. Do you know? I was able to I
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: was able to roll with it. Like with Panda Express, yes, yeah,
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: yeah yeah yeah.
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: And Panda Express like is it's like a Chinese takeaway
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: chain in in America. And again the joke is, if
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: you eat too much Panda Express, you'll shut yourself, and
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: I'm like, can't be Taco Bell and Panta Express lads
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: use lads, I think are just oh they're willing intern
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: dietary dietary by at large. Maybe it's the Mountain jew
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: Bah blast that you're shoveling into yourself. Food has never
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: seen gallon the fact that gallon you yeah, you know,
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: I mean crocodile.
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: And d said it best, do you know when he
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: pulled up and he was like, and he's made fas
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: Don was asking like about eating goes. So you can
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: just see this, Yeah, am I that's what the minded for.
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: So you can just eat like at the heady seven
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: in the corner of the path and you can see
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: you with lots of And it was a perfect synopsice
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: of exactly what Drivestroughs weren't made to think make things faster.
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: They were made so you could just shamelessly eat like
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: a fucking sow in the corner.
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: Maintain some degree of dignity. I'm taking it home to
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: the family I'm meeting in the yard.
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: Did we have Wendy's here for a while? I believe so?
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: And then I missed the opportunity to do the crocodile
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: and even pull up to the window. Got get I windy.
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll tell you the other place that where would
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: you have, Tom, sorry, where would you have?
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: Just like that? I was any place that would provide
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: me with crab harangoon at a decent American level Like
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: that was what was in my head more than I
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: can't There was a couple of others that were pretty
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: good on the sandwich front of things that there was.
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't mind the Red Lobster. I wouldn't mind the
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: red lobster. I got on well there. They were snappy
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: with their serviles and whatnot. But I don't think because
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: the red Lobster was tipped on the East Coast and
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: they're able to get lobster at a fairly relatively cheap
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: price and whatnot, they were able to sell it at
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: a relatively okay price. If red Lobster arrived here, yeah,
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: we'll be.
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: You'll be paying whole prices for everything. Don't about that
• 20:16

  Speaker 1: things down that. Honestly, I'm just saying that, no.
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: We don't, you know, don't write it, and then that's

• 26:14

  Speaker 2: the TV is still on playing the Sunday Game at
• 26:43

• 26:51
  Speaker 2: Thanks guy. We don't want it. We don't want to

• 27:25
  Speaker 2: So I am very much looking forward to it, Tom.
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: Like I said, I had a very rick flair retirement.
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: You know, we had a tear, a tear staying goodbye,
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: but at the back of the mind you were like
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: that hungry boss will be back out again.
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: When I knew, I knew, damn well, you'd be back
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: out again at some stage. I catch you. If all
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: I had to do was write a new hour and
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: a big show book in a load of places I
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: knew at least one fifty of those places Jerry would
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: show up to. Do you know what I mean? That's
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: that if that gets him back out on the road
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: and gets in the hunger for stand up, because there
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: will be like I mean, it's it's this is all
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: building towards live shows, for our own podcasts and stuff
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: of the Tom and Jerry Show. So it's it's very
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: much tipping your toe back in the water performing in
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: front of actual physical people again.
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: Like, well, I'll tell you what it is. Tom. It's
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: very funny. The last gig I did was for you
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: down in the Hill, mm hmm. Yeah, And that was
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: and I thought that was, like, you know, middle of
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: last year. I've been often for about six months. That
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: was two years ago.
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: Time it was jar. I looked at the poster, the
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: other day, you'd have been mad had a hair at
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: the time, like you hadn't actually trimmed the hair, and
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: you you had done what a couple a month or
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: two beforehand with me, remember you did it out And
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: that was a baptism of fire in a way, because
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: it was it was a random place outside care do
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: you remember it was called Krohen and this venue was
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: about to become a It was about to become a restaurant.
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: They had done it up, and but they hadn't. They
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: hadn't put in all the tables in the flooring yet.
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: That was lovely though, but that was the thing. It
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: was a thing that you could go, This could go
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: any which way at all. But I just trusted. I said,
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: no fucking bride would be perfect for this and this
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: is yeah, yeah, you know, I remember that this would
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: be an easy These are the kind of people because
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: I had just done a show to him with Bernard
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: Casey a couple of weeks previous, and I went, they
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: will my new show's got to come here, and they
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: put it to me and I sold two shows and
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: then Jerry came on and did it. I went, this
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: is exactly what McBride needs. And remember when you went
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: out and you fucking will be murdered. It was amazing,
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: and then came back and did the Hill with Deirdre
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: Acaine that night.
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: Well, I'll tell you one thing, Tom, that's the that's
• 29:27

• 30:06
  Speaker 1: who has other worries in their own life, they don't
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: give one fuck.
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: They don't care about the moment prior to you.
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: Stepping on the stage, they don't. And and fair play Tom,
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: they shouldn't. They have no business giving a fuck. Oh no,
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: like literally just the second you step on the stage
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: from then until you step off, that's the only bit
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: of time window you're in their lives.
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: Like, well, let's see how it goes, Tom, Let's see
• 30:29

• 30:39
  Speaker 1: But we've we've kind of actually said it over over
• 30:43

• 30:55
  Speaker 2: me spike that good will into the ground, buddy.
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: Just it was so funny to see you wasted, drunk,
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: just spitting fury about the comedy industry stage like Jesus Christ.
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: Is Oh my god, all right, okay, well there we go.
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: You know, Vince McMahon made himself WW champion one stage.
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: I had to make myself this lad for this week,
• 31:19

• 31:23
  Speaker 2: get back out or spiritually crushing oh the other let's
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: find out. But Tom, that's it. That's the future. The
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: future lies ahead of us. But you know what lies
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: behind us, buddy, Well the past. There you go argue
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: with that now, yep, And we've seen a bit of
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: the past. I've seen forty odd years of it, so
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: of you. But we lived. We grew up in a
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: very funny, a very funny time of lifetime. We grew
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: up in a time where we could see old ways
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: dying off and new ways coming in. I always say
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: we were right there and the pivot point of life
• 31:52
  Speaker 2: to fall from the eighties nineties, A lot of shit
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: went down. We like to look back on it with
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: our keen. Tom and Jerry Eye is in the final
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: segment of the show that we called We Remember When.
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: When I was a young lad twenty or thirty or
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: forty years ago. You know, it's it's funny that you
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: say that, like there's like say, I know, there's nostalgia,
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: comedy and all the rest, and we tried to actually
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: dance around that, stay away from what is Do you
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: remember when you know what I mean, I'm not.
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: I remember when you know marathons were marathons and not
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: snickers like yeah yeah. So we we put like not
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: Peter Kay. I know, and I like Peter Kay, but.
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: It's not But it's I saw something the other day
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: on the ground.
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: This is I'm just there scribbling out in the pad.
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: I said, there's no point he would send this atary
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: because it's been done to death in but I hadn't.
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: Actually it was it was warranted because I hadn't seen
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: this thing. It was it's been done today by comedians.
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: But it was a big no. But white dog shit.
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: I hadn't seen it. Nears hadn't go on wondering was
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: it make to come back? I had it just lost
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: its color.
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know, Tom, I don't know, and
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: we're not going to stay in it too long. But
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: my dog did a big white dog shit.
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: What do you mean that this is the thing?
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: Because I went back and I said, what did you
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: have yesterday? They didn't have today? And we couldn't quite
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: put our finger on it.
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: But like I watched, we didn't put your finger on it,
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: you know, I like I.
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: Seen it be produced. To Tom, I was like, huh
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: look at that, Yeah, because like it was like it
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: was like it was like a white flake.
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: Like the way somebody put it to me was that.
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: And we will get onto what we're actually talking about.
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: But this is just because we won't do a full
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: fucking segment on this. But somebody was like old butcher's
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: used to people used to get bones.
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there was you know, more more calcium and bones
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: or some shit.
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: I guessing maybe there was more calcium in doug food,
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: but I mean it wasn't you know, nobody was calling
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: to the butchers for a rake of bones for the dog.
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: Like you know, I gotta tell you, if my dog
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: had done too in a row, I would have talked
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: come down to the vet. But luckily enough, we got
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: back in business probably after that. But there you go.
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: There you go. So we don't necessarily remember about that.
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: But as you can see, ladies and gentlemen, we have
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: that in the whole story. If it ever comes to it.
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't want to keep a dog shit, No
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: That's why I wanted to get out of the way.
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: In a mini section for people, we can do there.
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: Don't feel free to chime in if you need.
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: But here's what I want to talk to you, Tom.
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: As we leave May. As we leave the month of
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: May and head into the rest of us. The month
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: of May is and these parts anyway, was always the
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: month of Mary, mother, Mary or lady don't you know? Okay?
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: Correct?
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: And it always reminded me of a particular time when
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: I was small that stayed with me all these years.
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: Now I'm a smidge old new Tom am about a
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: year eighteen months old on you. And I know when
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: this happened, I was like four going on five, so
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: you would have been three going on four. So it's
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: doubtful you quite remember this yourself.
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: No, But I mean it was in the zeitgeist.
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: Say me enough that I'd say that it hung around
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: a little bit. And that is the phenomenon in nineteen
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: eighty five in this country of moving statues of our
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: lady correct come into apple Green's near you. Yeah, Jerry
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: McBride as support. No, here's the thing, Tom, And this
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: is the reason why I know it's a small country
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: okay mm hmm. But there's a reason now and you'll
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: get to it now as to why you might or
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: might not know. And I'll tell for anybody that's you know, hey,
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: you know those twenty year old listeners that we have
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: tom that never heard about the moving statue phenomenon in Ireland, Yeah,
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: you know, all all those hip young people, those hepcats.
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: There was a phenomena nineteen eighty five in Ireland where
• 35:39
  Speaker 2: a village in Ireland called balanced Bittle in Cork reported
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: a grotto of our lady, which is not an uncommon
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: thing around here. You know, you're driving around, you see
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: a grotto, you see a shrine, you see whatnot. You
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: see a statue of our lady. Sometimes it's Jesus, sometimes
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: it's power pole, depends where you are then. But our
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: lady would be, you know, praying away there, praying away there.
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: She'd be high on the list. And there were reports
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: that the statue moved, and that was reported first in
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: nineteen eighty five in July by a lady called Kathy
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: o'many spelled the way you spell it, buddy, it would
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: be a very cock sur name. I don't believe I'm
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: related to Katy. But with that being said, you can't
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: you can't say it wasn't neither do right?
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: No, No, I can't, I can't. I'm actually looking at
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: her here now and I know I don't see any similarities.
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: I don't.
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: It seems tom and I hate to say it, but
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: it seems a very omanny thing to do, though it does.
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: All the same. Now, did Katy make a few pounds
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: out of it?
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: Probably no, which would mean it's a very o madny
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: thing to do.
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you're right, Actually, ye try their best.
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: But Kathy was coming along home with her with her
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: two daughters, and the stop at the to say the
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: rose were at the grotto. Not an uncommon thing to do, Okay, Now,
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: we hate that whittled down up our way still to
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: this day, I will bless myself passing the grotto. Just
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: that's in me since school, you know. Yeah, but it
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: wouldn't be uncommon at the time to stop and say
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: a decade of the Rosary or whatnot. And as they
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: were praying to the Virgin Mary, the statue moved. Amazing
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: your thoughts done?
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: Now. I always asked about this and I was just
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: told it moved. And I hear you did it rattle?
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: Did she wiggle? Did it way?
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: Did it rock?
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: Did she shake rattle like? Did she did it slide forward?
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: Did she throw peace signs?
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: Like?
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: That always got me because when I was small, you know,
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: I was four or five at the time. I thought
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: exactly what it was four or six months when this
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: came out and the move in statues intrigued me as
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: a young ass. But again, what is it doing? This
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: was very spooky. I remember, I remember distinctly being quite
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: scared about it. Oh, I was terrified of it because
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: jenuine I thought it was possessed. Because there was every
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: sort of horror movie was out of the time, and
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: as children we were allowed to watch them.
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: Amazingly. There was Jockie the Doll, there was fucking Freddy Krueger,
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: you name it. So imediately my mind went to monsters.
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: Were monsters were high in our mind, Tom.
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: So that's exactly I was immediately going, well, it's clearly
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: possessed by something, because anybody I asked, and then of
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: course I'll never forget it was like a grander or
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: some nun that I was slightly related to, or something.
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: I can remember her me asking as a child, going
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: what do you mean it moved? What movement did she make?
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: Did she wiggle? Slide? And it was almost, you know,
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: heresy to even question or to even ask what it did, Yeah,
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: what it did? And I remember her saying, oh, yeah,
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: by sure, there you have it. Tis on the name
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: doubting Thomas from the Yeah. I'm just I'm not being
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: a five year old skeptic. I know I want to
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: know what she did.
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: And that was that was that was what got me.
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: I was like, can can can I can they show
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: it on the news? Can they just put a camera
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: on it and showed move? More than all this in
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: a second, Tom, Here's the thing. This wasn't necessarily an
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: Irish thing. There had been reports and moving statues all
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: around the world for years and decades before hand, and
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: visitations of our lady the places. Again.
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: She shows up a lot.
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: She even showed up to the fine folks over not
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: County Mayo. But the most recent visitation at the time
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: was in nineteen eighty one to a village called Magigory.
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: No Magigory, Bye, tell.
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: Her Magic Goory. I gotta tell you. Magigory was big
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: in the eighties.
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: Magigory is still big the ages. I talked to a
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: gentlemen of the traveler community, and he was because I
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: thought it was done and dusted.
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: He was not tall.
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: Tom. It is Las Vegas for people who want to
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: do a bit of braying.
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: Madregori is the new lurds.
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: It is unbelief.
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: But there's you're sick of going to the lords, come
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: to Bosnia.
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: No, Madgigory is where it's at man Or So.
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: I remember Magigory being like big news in the in
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: the eighties. Later on we had like priests that had
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: been to Magicory would come and talk up mass and
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: all this kind of shit. The mask that we went
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: to at least once a week by the way, nineteen
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: eighties Ireland. Maybe what can I tell you? I fall
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: from a life. So they're getting all all sorts of
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: visitations around the world, all sorts of X y z's,
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: all reports and moving statues, and these things catch fire, Tom,
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: Like you know, if you want to take religion out
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: of it. The closest equivalent to this is crop circles,
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: right nof Yeah, yeah yeah I suppose, or you know,
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: UFO sizings and stuff like that.
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly.
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah. So if you have a crop circle, in your field. Well,
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: lo and behold. Like you know, I heard there was
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: a crop circle up the road. I heard there was
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: a crop circle here. I heard there was a crop
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: circle there. So lo and behold. When there was reports
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: of a moving statue in balance, bittle Tom and this
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: thing drew crowds, no fucking around of eight to ten
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: thousand people.
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: At night and night. Was it that big?
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: Yes, Jesus, this thing was like fifty plour matches. Baby.
• 40:43
  Speaker 2: They just kept showing up to see the Virgin Mary move.
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: And reports very yeah, I mean reports vary and there
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: a bunch of people have been out. There's been awesome.
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: Like there was a guy who wrote a book who
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: was like me and the moving statues, and but he'd
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: ends of people. There are dozens of people giving him
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: reports and what. But I mean, you know, Chinese whispers
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: and things and grow legs and all the rest of it.
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: And if you know somebody owns a business in the
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: world or some of your you know, trinkets, you're gonna
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: go with the whole thing. I doubt I'm not doubting
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: this woman and what you saw and all the rest
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: of it. But I just all I wanted was a
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: bit of clarity on it, because there was one s
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: then that were bleeding from the eyes and crying from
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: the eyes.
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: I don't think we had any bleeding on movement or
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: crying statues here in Ireland. This was parodied in Dairy
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: Girls when they was talking about the statue, and they
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: didn't pull that out of thin air that this was
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: a known and noted thing in the eighties and nineties
• 41:40
  Speaker 2: for statues to start crying and gesticulating and whatnot. Here's
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: the thing, tom, here is the movements as best we
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: can get from the crowds, a balanced bittle. And these
• 41:50
  Speaker 2: reports come from hardened skeptics as well. There was a
• 41:54
  Speaker 2: couple of interviews I saw about this, and it was
• 41:57
  Speaker 2: I dare say, twenty year old lad twenty two year
• 42:00
  Speaker 2: old lads who went down to act the ballocks and
• 42:02
  Speaker 2: take the make of it but left changed men. Yes,
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: and and reported being quite frightened, like they went down
• 42:09
  Speaker 2: to make a laugh of it, and whether it was
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: because our mammy was in the crowd and they had
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: to settle down and whatever happened happened. They all reported, No, No,
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: that thing moves, Okay, the movements as best as we
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: can can Tom are a sway forward, a pivot at
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: the hips, and the moving of the hands from clasp
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: together praying to being three to four inches apart, and
• 42:32
  Speaker 2: Joe Olden playing in the background. But the sounds of
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: things all right, because that is now I'm gonna put
• 42:37
  Speaker 2: it to you like this, Tom, I'm not here to
• 42:40
  Speaker 2: debunk this as well. If you stay at it and
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: for long enough, it's gonna move. True.
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: That is literally yeah, that is literally true if you
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: stay there. Because and I don't know what that that
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: you know that that I'm sure there was. Psychologists went
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: out or some form of physiologists. Physiologists went out from
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: UCC and I spent a fair bit of time out there,
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: did thirty one different kind of experiments out there, and
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: they went, yeah, it's an illusion. It's you know, it's
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: it's it's it's it's literal.
• 43:09
  Speaker 2: Mass hysteria. Mass hysteria isn't exactly screaming and crying and
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: running around the place. It can just be I saw things,
• 43:15
  Speaker 2: and now we all saw things again. I'm not going
• 43:17
  Speaker 2: to debuke it, Tom, but I reckon if I'm staring
• 43:19
  Speaker 2: at a statue from three o'clock in the day at
• 43:21
  Speaker 2: six o'clock in the evening and the shadow moves across it.
• 43:23
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna think she turned around, do you know?
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I've I dare say you have, but
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: I mean I've I have sat in a hide waiting
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: on what I was a one hundred percent sure was
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: a deer, and then you look through the scope and
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: you're like, oh, there's absolutely fucking nothing there.
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: So there's nothing there.
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: You've just been begging for that bastard to show up.
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: My mind made it up so regardless of whether you
• 43:48
  Speaker 2: were skeptical or not. Tom people around the country, because
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: the grottos of our lady were as common as phone
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: boxes around the every like everyone I drove.
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: To down Garden the other evening, and it was only
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: just I would try to explain to my I American
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: cousins they were visiting. They were going, We're going to
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: go from near York place over to Dunbar. I would oh, yeah,
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: the way, And I literally could have just said, well,
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: just you know, followed the grottos, that's what it is. Not.
• 44:14
  Speaker 2: But you're wrong.
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: I mean, around here we don't do a lot of grottos,
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: but there is a lot of what would you call
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: it I suppose that a lot of commemorative.
• 44:24
  Speaker 2: Ire.
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 44:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, again, we get into that another time, tom. But
• 44:32
  Speaker 2: I remember there will be plaques on the road saying
• 44:34
  Speaker 2: I am not a prisoner. And I was like, Dad,
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: I was that. It's like, I wouldn't expect you anyway.
• 44:41
  Speaker 2: If there was a moving statue and balance pittal, they
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: weren't the only one, because after reports of the moving
• 44:46
  Speaker 2: statue and balance Spittal, all of a sudden, every damn
• 44:49
  Speaker 2: statue in the country started moving.
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: That's what I thought, because when I went looking at it,
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: it was like, oh, the only one. No, no, No.
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: I knew there was one in Mount Mellory where they
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: where they we're training the monks in Waterford, up near
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: capa Quin. It's a lovely place, actually, if anybody's ever
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: been there, it's actually lovely gardens. But I knew there
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: was some sort of movement up there. And I don't
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: know if that was before or afterwards.
• 45:13
  Speaker 2: There were movements everywhere, every damn grotto, shrine and the statue,
• 45:18
  Speaker 2: every statue in every primary school. I had a child
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: praying in front of the saying I saw the lady,
• 45:22
  Speaker 2: our lady move to get out of fucking double match
• 45:24
  Speaker 2: or whatever it was. Everyone was going mad for this
• 45:27
  Speaker 2: concentrated three to four month period about the moving statues,
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: and to borrow a phrase from Dave Chappelle, the Roman
• 45:36
  Speaker 2: Catholic Church were oddly quiet.
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think they. Yeah, they were probably pretty skeptical
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: in themselves, and because.
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: They were like, now, okay, listen, thank you, but perhaps not.
• 45:52
  Speaker 2: We can't just come out here and throw around Yep,
• 45:55
  Speaker 2: she's moving. No she's not. We can't just dole out
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: miracles like that, like that kind of thing has to
• 46:00
  Speaker 2: go above the head of your local parish priest. But
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: he can go out and go like, yeah, I mean,
• 46:05
  Speaker 2: I can't argue. Katy said, she saw it move, and
• 46:07
  Speaker 2: I looked at it myself, and who knows what mysteries
• 46:10
  Speaker 2: the Lord does and leave it at that and walk off,
• 46:12
  Speaker 2: and everybody like, that'll do me.
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: She moved. Now there was not everybody was delighted with
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: a jar.
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: There was no this is this is this is what
• 46:20
  Speaker 2: I want to get to. Before I get to that time,
• 46:22
  Speaker 2: I want to tell you I had an aunt who
• 46:25
  Speaker 2: lived with a family in Cabra in Dublin at the time,
• 46:29
  Speaker 2: and we would come up to visit on the most
• 46:31
  Speaker 2: rare and indeed fondly remembered times. And I remember being
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: up there when I was four or five years of
• 46:38
  Speaker 2: age and around the corner there was allegedly a moving
• 46:42
  Speaker 2: statue and can yeah, there you go, and I, you know,
• 46:47
  Speaker 2: I don't know whether it was every officially, and there
• 46:49
  Speaker 2: was no official list of it, so I don't know
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: if it was. Ever, Like they never sent the RT
• 46:53
  Speaker 2: news crew out to her. They could have done. It
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: was only down the road. But I seem to recall
• 46:58
  Speaker 2: like while we were up there, my dad went down
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: to see it, or maybe you went to the pub
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: and tolals you went to see the movie and statue
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: one or the other. Ah, But that I like, I
• 47:05
  Speaker 2: was in a baby. I was like, I wasn't in
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: the ship in the jungle in Vietnam, But I was
• 47:10
  Speaker 2: like in denying.
• 47:12
  Speaker 1: I'm witcha yeah, yeah, you were writing up reports and whatnot,
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: and still you know, sending out supplies, shall we say,
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: like yeah, I witch it, yeah.
• 47:19
  Speaker 2: And that's I want to say. I was there when
• 47:22
  Speaker 2: the news came down in October of the same year,
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: so this had been going on for several months, but
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: the crowds had dwindled down to forty or fifty people.
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: And this was like lucky lose this, This was me
• 47:32
  Speaker 2: going to tackle bell Town. This is me going to
• 47:33
  Speaker 2: Chrispy Kreme. I didn't go in the first rush. I
• 47:35
  Speaker 2: waited a little. It died down and went down because
• 47:37
  Speaker 2: it's going to move as much in six months as
• 47:38
  Speaker 2: it did right now, lads, you know what I mean?
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: Now, I mean there's it was always there was always
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: going to be a bit of a happened. But we're
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: going to pick up a bit of it here because,
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: like you said, like they tend to happen in Italy
• 47:48
  Speaker 1: an awful lot in places you know when so de France.
• 47:52
  Speaker 2: But I gotta tell you time anywhere the people need
• 47:55
  Speaker 2: a miracle, because this is nineteen eighty five Ireland.
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: Baby.
• 47:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we weren't fucking sore and high.
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: No, we had no pot to piss in.
• 48:03
  Speaker 2: Troubles up the north, yeah, troubles on the side pity.
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: Do you know? I like Poland had a fair few
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: moving statutes themselves, if you know what I mean, quite a.
• 48:13
  Speaker 2: Lot of them, like red behind the lane between the lines.
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: Here it tends to be like a you know when
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: the plate is kind of you know, the great depression
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: in America, saw the world of alien activity. By all accounts, like.
• 48:24
  Speaker 2: Do you know what else are you going to do?
• 48:26
  Speaker 2: I saw a moving statue was free, ah not everybody
• 48:30
  Speaker 2: was joining it. And in October of that month, and
• 48:33
  Speaker 2: I want to say I was in the take because
• 48:34
  Speaker 2: I remember this news coming in.
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: I have a vague I remember, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: of the scandal.
• 48:40
  Speaker 2: A van pulled up at the moving statue in balance
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: spittal and out jumped three men. One held court down
• 48:45
  Speaker 2: at the bottom and told everybody to stand back, while
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: the other two men climbed up to the grotto with
• 48:50
  Speaker 2: a lump hammer and we hatchet for chopping timber and
• 48:53
  Speaker 2: smashed up the statue as best they could. Now, they
• 48:57
  Speaker 2: didn't smash it that much. I mean, they certainly smashed it,
• 48:59
  Speaker 2: the chopped at the face and hands of it. But
• 49:01
  Speaker 2: like you know, here's here's the clue. Lads, you know,
• 49:04
  Speaker 2: don't go chopping at a stone statue with a wood hatcher. Yeah,
• 49:08
  Speaker 2: it's not going to get the job done for you.
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: No, exactly these lads were and they weren't just lads
• 49:14
  Speaker 1: acting the magaz No.
• 49:15
  Speaker 2: I remember that at the time time when I was little,
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: the best I could get from it was that all
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: they were just bad bastards that pulled up and now
• 49:22
  Speaker 2: it was a sin and it was a scandal, and
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: it was oh sain who would do such a thing.
• 49:25
  Speaker 2: But these were religious men on their own right.
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: They were. There were Pentecostal protesters, and Pentecostle being a
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: kind of a I suppose a Bible bashing version of
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: kind of spin off of the Protestant vibe, like you
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: know what I mean, they're they wouldn't have churches per se,
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: they would kind of there be a holy house that
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: they would go to. And I think a lot of
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: people left a lot of money on the fucking table too.
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: These are the sort of evangelical bastards that of go,
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: you know, sign over the house to me. I gotta
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: you know, this kind of set up, like I.
• 49:57
  Speaker 2: Can't find out that the names of them, and they
• 50:00
  Speaker 2: I tried and found guilty of.
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: Robert Draper was the and he did he did six
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: months in prison for it.
• 50:07
  Speaker 2: Ye want and whatever? If I could give you a
• 50:10
  Speaker 2: modern equivalent to these evangelical Pentecostal Bible bashers, I'm not
• 50:17
  Speaker 2: going to invoke the name of them, Tom, but a
• 50:19
  Speaker 2: certain family whose son doesn't work in the school anymore.
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's that's what that's what they're
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: they're swinging up.
• 50:26
  Speaker 2: That would not be far off. But their issue with
• 50:27
  Speaker 2: the moving statues that this was idolatry, This was worshiping
• 50:31
  Speaker 2: false idols in the place of God and ah.
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: Probably stealing the limelight.
• 50:37
  Speaker 2: Off of their ship probably you know, probably not probably
• 50:40
  Speaker 2: not all that wrong either, but but.
• 50:42
  Speaker 1: You know, if it was harm and nobody do you
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: know what I mean, like, I think, what do you know,
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: I actually think that that's one of the most I
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: suppose it isn't that nearly wholesome versions that even the
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: Catholic Church were like well, you know, there was no
• 50:59
  Speaker 1: velvet ropes going and you know, put a tenor in
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: the box. It was literally just people say a decade
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: of the Rose and whatever extent camera, yeah, and exactly
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: what but whatever, I genuinely believe whatever, you know, whatever
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: you're into. But I think if a good collection of
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: people are actually together all, you know, in a good vibe,
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: what's there, you know what look and I would imagine
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: you got your pentecostal piss pens over there going hey
• 51:29
  Speaker 1: hey hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, we've got our own
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: thing going, and thank you very much. I mean, really,
• 51:34
  Speaker 1: you can sit back and tot if you're really that
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: bothered about it. Did you have to go up there
• 51:38
  Speaker 1: with what a fanny would attack a fucking concrete statue?
• 51:46
  Speaker 2: Come but not for the last time in the history
• 51:49
  Speaker 2: of the we remember when the segment of the Tom
• 51:51
  Speaker 2: and Jerry Show will be talking about people in this
• 51:54
  Speaker 2: country who couldn't get along because they pretty different. It's
• 51:58
  Speaker 2: gonna be a fucking team lady, going to be a
• 52:00
  Speaker 2: true line. We'd tell you that. But if you were
• 52:03
  Speaker 2: older than us at the at the dawn of the
• 52:06
  Speaker 2: moving statues nowland, you remember a little bit better or
• 52:09
  Speaker 2: clearer than we have laid it out. Yes, we would
