Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: You know, people often ask me if I'm superstitious, probably
- 0:06Speaker 1: because I work with ladders and such. In truth, I'm
- 0:09Speaker 1: never runder a ladder. I'm always up one. I do
- 0:13Speaker 1: have some superstitions, not as many as Tom and Jerry
- 0:17Speaker 1: talk about in this week's show mine.
- 0:19Speaker 2: But I do have some.
- 0:21Speaker 1: For example, I'm always salute to magpie just for luck,
- 0:25Speaker 1: although they are always surprised to see me do under
- 0:29Speaker 1: a foot up a lum and chimney the amount of
- 0:31Speaker 1: magpies that have flown it to wall when they see
- 0:34Speaker 1: me sharing their airspace. They might be a lucky for me,
- 0:38Speaker 1: but that's starting to think I might be bad luck
- 0:40Speaker 1: for them. Anyway, I'll see.
- 0:43Speaker 3: They welcome everybody, boys and girls, ladies and gentlemen to
- 0:58Speaker 3: the Tom and Jerry Podcast with myself, Jerry McBride and
- 1:02Speaker 3: him good self Tom oh Maney.
- 1:04Speaker 2: I don't think many children listen to this show. I
- 1:08Speaker 2: would be.
- 1:10Speaker 4: I would be reticent to agree with you because there's
- 1:12Speaker 4: possibly a recently six year old with his head to
- 1:15Speaker 4: the door outside going wondering if he found this spider,
- 1:20Speaker 4: if I found this spider on my mouse each so
- 1:23Speaker 4: this is the tricks he's playing on me. Now he's
- 1:26Speaker 4: lacing things around the house.
- 1:29Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's it's tell him to up his game
- 1:34Speaker 2: because that's clearly a fake spider.
- 1:36Speaker 4: Yeah, I know, it's only a matter of time before
- 1:38Speaker 4: you've seen you want to see. We talked bed Wadies
- 1:41Speaker 4: and Hearry Mulley's the last one of the last days.
- 1:43Speaker 4: The things that are flying around here, Jared there, it's
- 1:46Speaker 4: Jurassic Park.
- 1:47Speaker 2: Like are you talking are you talking about we fake
- 1:50Speaker 2: fake prank spiders like the young man left out there
- 1:53Speaker 2: and like this not not believable at fort Side casts
- 1:56Speaker 2: and you know, you gotta, you gotta if you want
- 1:58Speaker 2: to if you want to spook your old man, like
- 2:00Speaker 2: put a wheez spider on, then you don't know what
- 2:02Speaker 2: the fuck that thing is. Yeah, I think he's he's
- 2:05Speaker 2: right in that rum.
- 2:06Speaker 4: Now he's starting to make serious collections of yuks and
- 2:08Speaker 4: I don't remember him being as big as this when
- 2:10Speaker 4: I was young.
- 2:11Speaker 2: Fly, I don't know, God, bless.
- 2:12Speaker 4: Globe and global warming, if it is the real thing,
- 2:14Speaker 4: because there's things around here there there's a dragonfly and
- 2:17Speaker 4: it's an actual fucking dragon.
- 2:19Speaker 2: So these are these are legit. These are legit, real animals,
- 2:22Speaker 2: not vagans.
- 2:23Speaker 4: No, real yaks. He's garnering him around. I don't think
- 2:25Speaker 4: they're going to survive as long as he thinks in
- 2:27Speaker 4: the containers.
- 2:29Speaker 2: No, no, I don't want to jump into We remember when,
- 2:31Speaker 2: but I remember when I would get little jars of
- 2:33Speaker 2: things and they just turned to shit in the heat. Yea, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 2:38Speaker 2: It's a damn shame what I did on those animals.
- 2:40Speaker 2: Big news, Jair, big news, the bigger news.
- 2:44Speaker 4: Bigger news, Jar, I've bought the greatest of all time
- 2:50Speaker 4: watch company. In fact, I've bought two greatest of all time.
- 2:55Speaker 4: He can can you? Can you decipher what I'm giving
- 2:58Speaker 4: you there in the way of a clue?
- 2:59Speaker 2: Now? I can't know. I'm still thinking about the bugs. No,
- 3:04Speaker 2: we're still thinking about the dragonflies here. I've brought You're
- 3:07Speaker 2: shifting gears rapidly here, buddy. Sorry, but I'm very excited
- 3:10Speaker 2: by the fact that I've bought two goats. You bought
- 3:12Speaker 2: two goats, two goats. Times, Ladies and gentlemen, Life comes
- 3:19Speaker 2: at you fast, and I was settled down to five
- 3:22Speaker 2: minutes about talking about mosquitoes before we launch into the show.
- 3:25Speaker 2: And hang on a second, I never mind that ship.
- 3:28Speaker 2: Goats hold my goat's milk. Got no, they're coming on
- 3:31Speaker 2: They're coming on Friday. The chap is dropping them down
- 3:33Speaker 2: for us on Friday. We went up on Saturday to
- 3:35Speaker 2: Tom Barner, Nor.
- 3:36Speaker 4: Tipperary purchased these two goats. And they have one purpose
- 3:41Speaker 4: and one purpose on the chair, which is law and
- 3:43Speaker 4: mo one.
- 3:44Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, that's that's what.
- 3:46Speaker 4: I wanted to name one Honda. The other one yeah,
- 3:49Speaker 4: I or or whose far and I put it? Then
- 3:53Speaker 4: that is a great name for goat. I threw out
- 3:55Speaker 4: another one. And this maybe only a few listeners get this.
- 4:00Speaker 4: Brigs Stratton will be two two great names for goats.
- 4:04Speaker 4: And the Brigs and Stratton come here.
- 4:06Speaker 2: Listen to me. Male goats of female goats, two female goats,
- 4:10Speaker 2: because a male goat is, in the words of Bobby Bouchet,
- 4:14Speaker 2: is an ornary creature. Dan. That's exactly where we may
- 4:18Speaker 2: end up down that road. I don't know. We'll see
- 4:20Speaker 2: how these two Nubian goats.
- 4:23Speaker 4: They've done with the floppy years, the nice floppy years, okay,
- 4:26Speaker 4: and any goat and its kid, and we're going apparently
- 4:29Speaker 4: they'll lunch all before him. But I'm gonna get them
- 4:31Speaker 4: set up with electro fence and strip graze them up
- 4:33Speaker 4: along the alawn because by all accounts of carding germane
- 4:36Speaker 4: SA's the bitch you want them to eat, they won't
- 4:37Speaker 4: eat it at all. They'll find a brier in another
- 4:40Speaker 4: county and eat that. So just to lay them out
- 4:45Speaker 4: where you want them to go and they will munch up.
- 4:47Speaker 2: So we'll see how to do.
- 4:50Speaker 4: May may branch out. We'll see how these if they
- 4:53Speaker 4: are a complete nightmare. But I have to build them
- 4:55Speaker 4: a shade, hear, So that's I thought it was done
- 4:58Speaker 4: with my shed building at the minute you have to
- 5:00Speaker 4: build a shed.
- 5:01Speaker 2: I'm sorry for you, Pa, I.
- 5:03Speaker 4: Know I'm actually very excited, to be fair, I was excited.
- 5:06Speaker 4: I'm always excited about the podcast, right. But it's a
- 5:08Speaker 4: fine even outside there this evening. The timber landed today
- 5:11Speaker 4: when I was supposed to need Land tomorrow, and it's
- 5:13Speaker 4: sitting like if I showed you, like if I showed you,
- 5:15Speaker 4: it's just sitting there right next to what is now
- 5:18Speaker 4: a usable workshop. You'd understand if you were like Tom,
- 5:22Speaker 4: we put the podcast off this week if you want to.
- 5:24Speaker 2: And it's getting getting very ready to become a goat
- 5:26Speaker 2: shed a goat shed, sir, A goat shed the greatest
- 5:29Speaker 2: of all time.
- 5:30Speaker 4: So yeah, there'll be huge updates as to what's going
- 5:33Speaker 4: to happen with these lads.
- 5:34Speaker 2: There you go, folks. I mean like just when you
- 5:36Speaker 2: talkt the Tom and Jerry show was growing steel and passed.
- 5:38Speaker 2: This time we throw goddamn goats into the mix. There
- 5:41Speaker 2: you go, there you bring under the table over here, Tom,
- 5:44Speaker 2: I'm same as I have was. I was more than
- 5:47Speaker 2: willing to sink ten minutes into talking about bugs again.
- 5:51Speaker 4: To be fair, a lot of people are very comfortable
- 5:53Speaker 4: with the status cold here. They don't like I'm the
- 5:56Speaker 4: wild card off the two here, like you never know
- 5:58Speaker 4: where or what Tom would be up to.
- 5:59Speaker 2: So now I'm buying two goes. Do you know what
- 6:01Speaker 2: it is?
- 6:02Speaker 1: Jar?
- 6:02Speaker 4: I like to make a rod for my own back
- 6:04Speaker 4: when it comes to me, Effan and jeff in around
- 6:05Speaker 4: the place. I guarantee you within a week I'll be
- 6:08Speaker 4: cursing those two bastards.
- 6:09Speaker 2: Going why did I draw this on myself? But I
- 6:11Speaker 2: do that. You're smart, you see.
- 6:13Speaker 4: He keeps it between the ditches, whereas I'm up on
- 6:16Speaker 4: the ditch looking down, going I should jump over onto
- 6:18Speaker 4: the other ditch and see what trouble I can get
- 6:20Speaker 4: myself over there. Trouble.
- 6:22Speaker 2: That's all I'm looking for. The trouble a capital D.
- 6:24Speaker 2: Tom will listen, I'll tell you what we'll do. That
- 6:26Speaker 2: is indeed big news. But that's I gotta tell you.
- 6:30Speaker 2: You know, Tom says, I have news for you, Jar
- 6:32Speaker 2: and I literally and could come out of that man's Matt.
- 6:34Speaker 2: But it's not the big news, as we covered in
- 6:37Speaker 2: the show. No, no, no, We're gonna cover the weekly
- 6:39Speaker 2: what have you now, Tom, which is when we take
- 6:41Speaker 2: a look at the shenanigans that happened during the week,
- 6:44Speaker 2: and any story that really pops out to us, we
- 6:47Speaker 2: think we might like to bring it to the listeners
- 6:49Speaker 2: of the Tom and Jerry Show. I've said he did
- 6:50Speaker 2: the name of it already, Tom, it's the weekly what
- 6:52Speaker 2: have you? This is a very complicated case, Mad, you know,
- 6:55Speaker 2: a lot of ian's, a lot of outs, a lot
- 6:57Speaker 2: of what have you, and a lot of scrans. Keeping
- 7:00Speaker 2: my head man. So we I spotted this last week.
- 7:04Speaker 4: We we'd already put it in the the old school.
- 7:07Speaker 4: We already had the film in the real in in
- 7:10Speaker 4: the can, so we couldn't roll with this one, but
- 7:13Speaker 4: it is, it's it's still rolling on.
- 7:16Speaker 2: No doubt this scenario. It's going to roll for a while.
- 7:18Speaker 4: I think in the now we I tell you what
- 7:21Speaker 4: we have a through line ThReD definitely with trees, mid
- 7:28Speaker 4: mythical things, old Irish folklore and whatnot and construction. So
- 7:32Speaker 4: this by Jesus Christ, this story kind of combines everything
- 7:35Speaker 4: that we're kind of into and a.
- 7:37Speaker 2: Lot of the five five pints of the Pentagon here
- 7:39Speaker 2: Tom what would hit as well? It bring us up
- 7:42Speaker 2: to speed.
- 7:42Speaker 4: So a fairy tree, yes, a fairy tree which is
- 7:46Speaker 4: often a black turner hawthorn tree, as Jerry will have
- 7:48Speaker 4: told us all about before. And if anybody wants to
- 7:50Speaker 4: go back, there's plenty of IRUs mythology ones that were
- 7:53Speaker 4: episodes that we've done.
- 7:54Speaker 2: What should explain these?
- 7:55Speaker 4: But it must be kept in a sixty four million
- 7:58Speaker 4: euro housing scheme in one hundred and twenty nine fewer homes. Now,
- 8:03Speaker 4: I don't think the tree is the one issue. I
- 8:06Speaker 4: don't think it's the one issue.
- 8:07Speaker 2: But it's making the most nice.
- 8:09Speaker 4: It's making the most noise because why wouldn't it. So
- 8:11Speaker 4: it's retinue in County Wicklow. It's it was Originally, originally
- 8:17Speaker 4: they were they were putting in planning for I think
- 8:19Speaker 4: three hundred It was like let's say three hundred and
- 8:22Speaker 4: fifty units or whatever. And they're down, Yeah, they're down now,
- 8:26Speaker 4: I think they're down. They're down to two hundred and
- 8:28Speaker 4: twenty odd essentially, and it's whether it's both houses and
- 8:32Speaker 4: departments and all the rest of it, and they're putting
- 8:34Speaker 4: it down on.
- 8:35Speaker 2: As a result of this.
- 8:36Speaker 4: Tree is can't be touched and it can't be touched
- 8:40Speaker 4: by Irish law like on board planol like the planning board.
- 8:43Speaker 2: Can just go oh, drive on you know, tree is
- 8:45Speaker 2: the three.
- 8:47Speaker 4: Board planal attend to be a bit more almost like
- 8:50Speaker 4: the ombuitsmen for that where they step in. If somebody
- 8:53Speaker 4: went hi, Hi, hey hi, it's a forty one acre side,
- 8:55Speaker 4: they've they'll make plenty of money out of it with
- 8:58Speaker 4: their two hundred and twenty nine units. That tree kind
- 9:01Speaker 4: of go you knock that tree, And here's the thing,
- 9:03Speaker 4: Jre I told you about this before. You will find
- 9:05Speaker 4: digger men who will just track away from that and go,
- 9:08Speaker 4: I ain't touching.
- 9:09Speaker 2: You ain't touching that.
- 9:10Speaker 4: You cannot with your own but I touched that, and
- 9:12Speaker 4: I'm burst the hydraulic hose. I guarantee I will.
- 9:14Speaker 2: Well here here here Okay. So, in its simplest terms,
- 9:17Speaker 2: somebody buys up a field in Rathnue to put let's say,
- 9:20Speaker 2: for easy, sum's four hundred houses on it, there's a
- 9:24Speaker 2: lone bush, a fairy bush, in the middle of it,
- 9:27Speaker 2: and because of Irish law, they have to work around that,
- 9:32Speaker 2: and therefore they're dropping one hundred and twenty houses instead
- 9:35Speaker 2: of getting four hundred, you're getting into eighty give or take,
- 9:37Speaker 2: for easy. So yeah, yeah, yeah, Now Tom, can you
- 9:42Speaker 2: explain that to somebody that's not from Ireland in very
- 9:45Speaker 2: simple terms?
- 9:46Speaker 4: So, the the idea of the howt Orn three is
- 9:51Speaker 4: the mythology that surrounds it in the folklore, and the
- 9:55Speaker 4: real respect that actually surrounds these trees is the notion
- 9:59Speaker 4: is that that is where the shadow realm, the fairy
- 10:03Speaker 4: where realm meets the human realm, is where humans could
- 10:06Speaker 4: meet fairies or fairies. And by that it's the fairy
- 10:10Speaker 4: of the f e r I e s side the tricksters.
- 10:13Speaker 2: The folk folk from another the other realm do not
- 10:16Speaker 2: think about.
- 10:17Speaker 4: In other words, no, and again I would urge people
- 10:20Speaker 4: to go back find our or you know, our Halloween.
- 10:24Speaker 2: Yeah, if you can.
- 10:24Speaker 4: And and because it will tie in nicely with this one,
- 10:27Speaker 4: and it'll explain it on on a heavy, heavy amount,
- 10:32Speaker 4: exactly what these trees and it is kind of a
- 10:34Speaker 4: nationwide thing where it's it's it's an accepted thing that
- 10:39Speaker 4: they're seen.
- 10:39Speaker 2: Has been almost like a monument, a natural monument that
- 10:43Speaker 2: you can go back like. And I want to stress Tom,
- 10:46Speaker 2: this isn't a religious thing, right, So this isn't like
- 10:49Speaker 2: a religious thing where you can't chop this tree down religous.
- 10:52Speaker 2: This is purely straight up supernatural.
- 10:57Speaker 1: Ah.
- 10:57Speaker 2: And here's where me and Tom might have a slight
- 11:03Speaker 2: divergence of the force. Yeah. Yeah, because as you've just
- 11:06Speaker 2: said there, Tom, you would not touch that. In previous episodes,
- 11:10Speaker 2: we've talked about what happens if you cut down a
- 11:11Speaker 2: fairy tree. We've all heard stories of some chapter cut
- 11:14Speaker 2: down a fairy tree and every night he went to
- 11:16Speaker 2: bed after he had torn some in his bed for
- 11:19Speaker 2: the rest of his life. Yes, correct, Yeah, as Tom
- 11:22Speaker 2: said there, the digger man would cut down the tree
- 11:24Speaker 2: and then he would crash the digger on the way home,
- 11:26Speaker 2: or some malevolent reckoning would visit him in a counter argument,
- 11:35Speaker 2: maybe none of that shit had happened because it's a
- 11:37Speaker 2: fucking tree, Tom, chop it down. There is Yeah, there
- 11:40Speaker 2: is a counter argument. Now I was saying, and I
- 11:44Speaker 2: wouldn't be getting all that sore about it, except but
- 11:46Speaker 2: the nation is the nation, in the state that it's in, Tom,
- 11:49Speaker 2: that you'd like to see as many houses as possible.
- 11:51Speaker 2: With that being said, if a contractor is going to
- 11:55Speaker 2: not have an extra x amount of profit, I'm not
- 11:57Speaker 2: going to lose sleep over that. But if you know
- 12:00Speaker 2: a certain amount of families aren't going to have a
- 12:02Speaker 2: home to live in, then that's not great news. Would
- 12:05Speaker 2: we give away a tree, one tree, one little tree
- 12:08Speaker 2: by its name time it's a lone tree, one lonely
- 12:12Speaker 2: ass tree. Would we chopped that bitch? Don?
- 12:14Speaker 4: Yeah, but before you know it, then it's a venture
- 12:16Speaker 4: capitalist crew from like Cambodia have just built this company
- 12:19Speaker 4: and they don't give it. There has to be a
- 12:21Speaker 4: level of now they like the lights of Eddie Lenhan
- 12:26Speaker 4: was at the site and everyon you know Eddie Lennon
- 12:28Speaker 4: long long ago and Terra you know, remember that guy
- 12:31Speaker 4: with the big beard and yeah he's yes, you know all.
- 12:33Speaker 2: Folks and stuff.
- 12:34Speaker 4: And he he was like, well, finally we have a
- 12:37Speaker 4: bit of you know, a bit civilized that we actually don't.
- 12:40Speaker 4: Money can't buy everything. And I get your argument.
- 12:43Speaker 2: I get it. I would So I'm clear, Tom, I'm
- 12:47Speaker 2: not arguing to go down with an ax and chop
- 12:48Speaker 2: down that tree. I'm just saying that's an option that's
- 12:51Speaker 2: open to us. I'm okay with leaving the tree there.
- 12:53Speaker 2: Exactly have what I would like to think is a
- 12:56Speaker 2: novel solution to it. But no, don't chop down the tree,
- 12:59Speaker 2: because you're you just bow over and like give giveaway everything.
- 13:02Speaker 2: The next thing, what are you going to be doing
- 13:03Speaker 2: using the Book of Kels to you know, light a match?
- 13:07Speaker 2: Exactly exactly?
- 13:08Speaker 4: So I have, and I think this would be a
- 13:11Speaker 4: novel way of doing it, and I think it might
- 13:13Speaker 4: it might encourage more builders to maybe. Now I know
- 13:16Speaker 4: it's going to cut their profit and all the rest,
- 13:18Speaker 4: but where they are right now, is there one hundred
- 13:19Speaker 4: and twenty nine homes down?
- 13:20Speaker 2: Now?
- 13:21Speaker 4: The thing is these motherfuckers hadn't put in any facilities
- 13:24Speaker 4: for sports, for playgrounds, for anything.
- 13:26Speaker 2: So this does tells me there's more to this than
- 13:29Speaker 2: oh it's just a tree. You're not getting that because
- 13:31Speaker 2: you're not getting planner pformassion because you're figuring your drainage
- 13:34Speaker 2: out let alone. One fucking tree. One hundred and twenty
- 13:36Speaker 2: nine houses ain't going down because of one tree. So
- 13:40Speaker 2: I think they did dis planning group. Obviously they either
- 13:44Speaker 2: rubbed them up the wrong way or whatever, and they
- 13:46Speaker 2: didn't have the they didn't have. These guys were just
- 13:48Speaker 2: maximizing profits. I'd tell you what it was.
- 13:50Speaker 4: Three hundred and fifty unit scheme to fit into forty
- 13:53Speaker 4: one acres. That is insane when you think about, Okay,
- 13:57Speaker 4: a lot of them are going to be apartments, maybe
- 13:59Speaker 4: four or five or apartment blocks, but like build up
- 14:03Speaker 4: three hundred Like let's say on average per unit, that's
- 14:08Speaker 4: Jesus Christ, Like, that's that's that's eighth Is that eight
- 14:13Speaker 4: houses nine houses per unit? Let me tell you, Tom,
- 14:18Speaker 4: that's nine houses per acre.
- 14:19Speaker 2: I've seen a lot of the new builds these days,
- 14:21Speaker 2: and you're not getting much of a front garden. Let
- 14:23Speaker 2: me put it like that.
- 14:24Speaker 4: I mean, but you moved to rats New for a
- 14:26Speaker 4: bit of the countryside, like you like.
- 14:29Speaker 2: But I have a novel idea lettle here, Tom, I
- 14:32Speaker 2: have a solution myself, but I'd love to hear yours
- 14:34Speaker 2: because I'm sure yours is better taught toad out in mind.
- 14:36Speaker 4: Well probably possibly not, but it's the way I I
- 14:40Speaker 4: I I like that. The idea of it is, if
- 14:43Speaker 4: you move to the countryside right there, there comes with it. Yes,
- 14:47Speaker 4: less less amenities and stuff like that, and you're not
- 14:49Speaker 4: going to have the sushi on a Tuesday night, right
- 14:52Speaker 4: but you do quite often get to stamp your own
- 14:56Speaker 4: stamp on the world when you get to move to
- 14:58Speaker 4: the countryside. So when there are main and hunt like
- 15:01Speaker 4: let's say they've used thirty acres and then remain in
- 15:05Speaker 4: eleven acres eleven and a half acres, give two acres
- 15:09Speaker 4: away to two facilities, sports facilities. I want to see
- 15:16Speaker 4: a beautiful, a beautiful granite monument built forty foot out,
- 15:20Speaker 4: maybe a circular one, done in like a Celtic style,
- 15:22Speaker 4: you know, concentric rings and stuff like that to protect
- 15:25Speaker 4: that tree, and then the remainder split into fifty of
- 15:28Speaker 4: an acre sites and you get to buy them at
- 15:32Speaker 4: a minimum profit for the builder, but you get planning
- 15:36Speaker 4: almost immediate for whatever fuck you want to build.
- 15:39Speaker 2: And then everybody build.
- 15:40Speaker 4: Once they can provide funds, you know, proof of funds.
- 15:43Speaker 2: And stuff like that.
- 15:44Speaker 4: It's your site and you build within. Let's say, let's
- 15:47Speaker 4: give them twelve options of houses that they can build
- 15:50Speaker 4: with inside that that that realm, and I just I
- 15:53Speaker 4: think it gives it's a different vibe. The builders get
- 15:56Speaker 4: a little bit of profit back and stuff like that.
- 15:58Speaker 4: But also there'll be one hundred and twenty nine or
- 16:01Speaker 4: one hundred and twenty folks will say, Okay, maybe my
- 16:04Speaker 4: MAT's a rung on the fifty and acre. But it
- 16:06Speaker 4: gives a blest of folks be able to build the
- 16:09Speaker 4: house that they always wanted to fucking build. Do you
- 16:11Speaker 4: know some people don't want to touch it. They want
- 16:14Speaker 4: one of the two hundred and thirty that are being built.
- 16:16Speaker 2: Forum down the road.
- 16:18Speaker 4: You know, I like the idea of just selling off
- 16:21Speaker 4: service sites and letting people at it. You know, they
- 16:23Speaker 4: can they cannot bring the houses all up together. At
- 16:26Speaker 4: the same time, you're kind of sharing war stories while
- 16:28Speaker 4: you're fucking, you know, in there with the hammer doing
- 16:31Speaker 4: a bit yourself, sweeping out the site. Maybe you're lending
- 16:33Speaker 4: each other's scaveld And I think it would build the
- 16:35Speaker 4: community before the even community gets finished, but.
- 16:38Speaker 2: Like, isn't it aren't you just basically saying, Okay, we're
- 16:41Speaker 2: leaving these sites open for anybody that wants to come
- 16:43Speaker 2: building them, like you know, and by the way, you're
- 16:45Speaker 2: building beside a gateway to the fucking underworld. That's like
- 16:48Speaker 2: saying hell that it's cheap properly going in Chernobyl. You know,
- 16:50Speaker 2: anybody that wants it coming out? Oh I don't.
- 16:52Speaker 4: I don't see a negative side to building near building
- 16:55Speaker 4: near the ferry tree dolls.
- 16:56Speaker 2: Okay, So that's my That's that's where I was coming
- 16:59Speaker 2: at it, okay, because it couldn't fathom how one tree, Tom,
- 17:03Speaker 2: like one tree all right.
- 17:06Speaker 4: It is slap bang by the way, and I mean
- 17:08Speaker 4: slap middle, Like this tree looks like it is slap
- 17:14Speaker 4: bang middle in the middle of this forty acre field.
- 17:17Speaker 4: And the shot that they got of it is amazing.
- 17:20Speaker 4: It's literally you could shoot an arrow over the top
- 17:22Speaker 4: of it and hit the center of the mountain behind it.
- 17:25Speaker 2: It's bang on, like there's something in the tree. Like
- 17:28Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying, just don't that tree. But
- 17:30Speaker 2: I'll tell you, I'll tell you what it's not, Tom,
- 17:33Speaker 2: It's not one hundred and twenty houses in sight in size. No,
- 17:37Speaker 2: it's not so, it doesn't cover that. So when I
- 17:40Speaker 2: when I heard about this, I'm like, that's what. That's
- 17:42Speaker 2: what kind of clued me in that there's some other
- 17:44Speaker 2: fucking malfeas and ocenanigans going on. Build around the tom,
- 17:50Speaker 2: build right up to it. Have it, Like, you know
- 17:52Speaker 2: what I would do with that tree. I would put
- 17:54Speaker 2: it on the logo of the development. I would call
- 17:57Speaker 2: that Loan Tree Developments. I would call it Loan Tree
- 18:00Speaker 2: Tree Rise. That's what I would call it.
- 18:01Speaker 4: No, nobody's staying at Lone Tree Rise. You've got to
- 18:04Speaker 4: call it Hawthorn Mews.
- 18:07Speaker 2: Hawthorn Mews or in kind of Wan Drive. I don't
- 18:11Speaker 2: care what you're going right now, you're selling Jerry, now
- 18:17Speaker 2: you will. And I would put a pavilion around it
- 18:20Speaker 2: and little benches and shit like this. And you know
- 18:22Speaker 2: what I do. You know what I'm picturing in my mind,
- 18:23Speaker 2: I'm picturing the white tree of Gone Door.
- 18:26Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 18:27Speaker 2: It's this one tree that's smack bang in the middle
- 18:30Speaker 2: of this development, and everybody revers it and it's a
- 18:33Speaker 2: wonderful tree and it's lives there for another one hundred years,
- 18:37Speaker 2: and every now and then someone comes along and pricks
- 18:39Speaker 2: themselves on a bush and then the hand withers and
- 18:41Speaker 2: dies and falls off, and you just know, not go
- 18:43Speaker 2: near that game. But other than that, like you know,
- 18:47Speaker 2: I don't see how this is holding up one hundred
- 18:48Speaker 2: and twenty one hundred and twenty housand units other than
- 18:51Speaker 2: there's there's something that's going on. Oh, there's definitely something
- 18:54Speaker 2: else going on.
- 18:54Speaker 4: This is the story that's making a good story of it,
- 18:57Speaker 4: Like you know what I mean, Like I said, they
- 18:58Speaker 4: put in these baskets, put in for no immedienities. What
- 19:01Speaker 4: if they were gonna put three hundred plus units in there?
- 19:04Speaker 4: And I'd say, not so much as a merry go
- 19:06Speaker 4: round or a swing.
- 19:08Speaker 2: You know. We're gonna tell you one thing, Tom, and
- 19:09Speaker 2: I know one thing. Okay, if it was a case
- 19:12Speaker 2: that that loan bush, that single loan bush, was the
- 19:14Speaker 2: only thing holding up development of one hundred and twenty houses,
- 19:18Speaker 2: then that loan bush that had sat there for one
- 19:20Speaker 2: hundred years would suddenly and mysteriously fall in the next
- 19:23Speaker 2: good gust of wind that came across the place. Oh,
- 19:25Speaker 2: you mean, like the one in the UK with the
- 19:28Speaker 2: two lads I'm just saying it'd be like, oh, there
- 19:31Speaker 2: was an awful windy night last night, it knocked the
- 19:33Speaker 2: bush and when you closed or I inspected it close,
- 19:35Speaker 2: or you'd see like just like the bumper marks of
- 19:37Speaker 2: a fiats fiat chink gender the true fucking straight into it,
- 19:41Speaker 2: I'll tell you now.
- 19:42Speaker 4: But if if it was just that tree like it
- 19:46Speaker 4: would there wouldn't be with the way I know how
- 19:49Speaker 4: developers operate, Like I've landed onto sites. I've gotten a
- 19:53Speaker 4: phone call to say, we think we've stumbled upon an
- 19:56Speaker 4: iron age village and gotten to the site and it
- 20:00Speaker 4: has looks like Afghanistan twelve years into the war. Yeah,
- 20:05Speaker 4: it's been fucking annihilated. Yes, the developers will not stop,
- 20:11Speaker 4: especially if they have investors behind them, like they will
- 20:13Speaker 4: not stop at a fucking three. So I'm guessing what
- 20:16Speaker 4: these fuckers did was they omitted a load of things
- 20:19Speaker 4: for maximizing profit. Like every corner of the place is
- 20:23Speaker 4: going to be squazed. Chances are they didn't build a
- 20:25Speaker 4: proper lead road into it. You know, probably didn't round
- 20:28Speaker 4: about just thin they were going to leave the original
- 20:30Speaker 4: gate and people pour out rat's news the back of
- 20:33Speaker 4: beyonds like it's nearly in tiny HELI like my cousin's
- 20:36Speaker 4: not that way. It is the back of beyond.
- 20:38Speaker 2: It wouldn't be overly ready jar for four hundred plus
- 20:42Speaker 2: cars to be dropped in there tomorrow tomorrow morning. I'm
- 20:45Speaker 2: going to tell you one thing, tom I'm not I'm
- 20:51Speaker 2: not saying what it is they're doing or not doing,
- 20:54Speaker 2: but they're not doing it just because of that three
- 20:57Speaker 2: just a very simple scape coade like oh, yeah, I know,
- 20:59Speaker 2: we'd build houses for you and all your families if
- 21:00Speaker 2: it wasn't for these beardy lefties, you know. Yeah, on
- 21:04Speaker 2: a second here, now, that's what I have to say
- 21:06Speaker 2: about that.
- 21:07Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, so I I that's my idea is
- 21:10Speaker 4: to celebrate the tree much like yours and go real folks,
- 21:15Speaker 4: and if the fairy folk are you know this art,
- 21:18Speaker 4: if they are a real thing, and we're not saying
- 21:20Speaker 4: we never go again.
- 21:21Speaker 2: Them, I'm not falling on the wrong side of anybody.
- 21:24Speaker 4: If they are a real thing, hopefully you know what
- 21:26Speaker 4: I mean, they'll appreciate maybe a spar just saying the spa.
- 21:31Speaker 2: You know on a coffee shop in the west, and
- 21:34Speaker 2: a graph and barbers you know, you know, that's what
- 21:39Speaker 2: I have to say about that. Well, listen, that is
- 21:40Speaker 2: big news and we'll keep an eye on that very
- 21:43Speaker 2: closely as we go forward. But enough about the we folk, Tom,
- 21:46Speaker 2: those lads you know you don't want to stay you
- 21:48Speaker 2: don't want to stay on their bad side. You want
- 21:50Speaker 2: to stay on the good side. That's what those lads
- 21:51Speaker 2: will bring to you. But we're going to talk about
- 21:52Speaker 2: someone else here now, not those lads, but we're just
- 21:55Speaker 2: going to talk about someone who achieved this lad status.
- 22:02Speaker 4: Who is your this lad because you you were troubled.
- 22:06Speaker 4: Jerry texts me every so often he's like, I've seen
- 22:08Speaker 4: a thing, Tom, and we need to talk about it,
- 22:10Speaker 4: and we go.
- 22:10Speaker 2: Every now and then I get shock every now and then,
- 22:12Speaker 2: like this lad that this lad of the week is
- 22:14Speaker 2: someone we saw on the news or someone that smashed
- 22:16Speaker 2: down X y Z or someone that concocted.
- 22:18Speaker 4: Some storretting or a place or vegetable and all the
- 22:22Speaker 4: rest of it's it's But sometimes Jerry would just message, going, well,
- 22:26Speaker 4: if you need to find a way to crawl.
- 22:27Speaker 2: Every now and then you witness in real life and
- 22:29Speaker 2: sprog and I can't get over the person I just
- 22:31Speaker 2: saw so Tom I was away there a couple of
- 22:33Speaker 2: weeks weekends ago, and I went to and all you
- 22:37Speaker 2: can eat buffet, which is a thing that you know,
- 22:39Speaker 2: not jumping ahead of segment, that we remember when, but
- 22:41Speaker 2: I remember that wasn't the thing in this country that
- 22:43Speaker 2: came upon us slowly over the last twenty years. And
- 22:46Speaker 2: now they're not common. But you can find them if
- 22:48Speaker 2: you go looking for them.
- 22:49Speaker 4: Yeah, I I well, they tell you about the first
- 22:52Speaker 4: one I ever went to.
- 22:53Speaker 2: Yeah, go on. It was in America. You can imagine,
- 22:58Speaker 2: and w to We can't.
- 23:02Speaker 4: It wasn't all you can eat we'd pop into, but
- 23:04Speaker 4: you could get a mixing gathering in the shopping center potential,
- 23:07Speaker 4: the Prudential Center in Boston. But I went up about
- 23:10Speaker 4: a month after living there, I went up to visit
- 23:12Speaker 4: the ant in Connecticut.
- 23:13Speaker 2: She lived up near the Hamptons.
- 23:15Speaker 4: She picked me up and I thought I was going
- 23:17Speaker 4: to get a right fancy meal. Altogether, I thought this
- 23:20Speaker 4: one is bags of money. Anyway, she picked me up
- 23:21Speaker 4: off the bus in Stanford, Connecticut, Connecticut, the home of
- 23:26Speaker 4: the yes indeed, Titan Tower WW and insurance Capital of America.
- 23:31Speaker 4: I'm told, very quiet place, although I did witness of
- 23:34Speaker 4: Philip being shot out by the cops, but you know yourself.
- 23:36Speaker 4: And then she took me up the freeway and she said, oh,
- 23:40Speaker 4: this is a good spot in here and all grand
- 23:43Speaker 4: and then we go and it had all the look of,
- 23:45Speaker 4: you know, the the older McDonald's with the I suppose
- 23:48Speaker 4: the red tiled room against you know, the proper roadside
- 23:52Speaker 4: diner and this could be you know, I'm thinking guy
- 23:54Speaker 4: fieriest stuff here now, even though it didn't know him
- 23:56Speaker 4: at the time.
- 23:57Speaker 2: And I go in and it's all you can eat.
- 24:00Speaker 2: She was this a golden corral. It was something along
- 24:02Speaker 2: those lines. Yeah, it was something along those lines.
- 24:05Speaker 4: And she paid, She paid for me, and looking after me,
- 24:08Speaker 4: I went, oh great, and she says, and all you
- 24:11Speaker 4: can eat and I says, I only want to the
- 24:14Speaker 4: dinner like I.
- 24:16Speaker 2: I don't need.
- 24:17Speaker 4: But okay, well, when in Rome, you're my whole. Because
- 24:22Speaker 4: I'll tell you something, this was so wet behind the ears,
- 24:26Speaker 4: so green was I at this scenario. And I was
- 24:29Speaker 4: not ready for monstrous Americans. Like monstrous I mean every
- 24:35Speaker 4: time I don't know if you've ever seen like in
- 24:37Speaker 4: a cartoon, you know, somebody goes to take a bite
- 24:39Speaker 4: out of the sausage, and every time they look away,
- 24:41Speaker 4: a dog goes up and jumps up and takes a bite.
- 24:43Speaker 2: Out of it. Yeah.
- 24:44Speaker 4: The Simpsons, Yeah, yeah, Simpsons, exactly the Simpsons. And it's
- 24:47Speaker 4: that was literally I'd be talking to the end and
- 24:49Speaker 4: I'd have to plate and I'd go for a lump
- 24:52Speaker 4: of chicken, and I'd say, I know, sure is greaty,
- 24:55Speaker 4: where's all the chicken? And I looked over at one stage,
- 24:58Speaker 4: this is my second attempt to get some chick can
- 25:01Speaker 4: and the second time, this guilty more sized human, this
- 25:08Speaker 4: sleeve patrick sized human, was waddling away with the full
- 25:13Speaker 4: Bamboree fucking yoke under his arm. I mean he took
- 25:16Speaker 4: all you can eat to another like this was ignorance
- 25:20Speaker 4: of a level that only a man could stand back.
- 25:21Speaker 2: And go on. But he took that as a challenge,
- 25:23Speaker 2: right by Jesus Christ. I don't know. I got some
- 25:26Speaker 2: rice or something in the end. It wasn't a great
- 25:28Speaker 2: force experience. I've had some good ones since that was
- 25:31Speaker 2: slappen that. Before we get onto that, I want to
- 25:35Speaker 2: talk about this that that I saw Buffy open Perth fast.
- 25:39Speaker 2: It's not a long story, isn't real short, but we'll we'll, we'll, we'll,
- 25:42Speaker 2: we'll chat about it, we'll discuss all you can. He
- 25:46Speaker 2: place up in fast and I was like something like
- 25:48Speaker 2: twenty pounds starle on the head, you know, real class,
- 25:51Speaker 2: each bargain. But you know if you know fucking corral
- 25:56Speaker 2: place to tell you don't you don't take anybody there
- 25:59Speaker 2: for the birthday, you know what I mean.
- 26:00Speaker 4: And it's just like you ain't going on the date
- 26:01Speaker 4: since this joint, you ain't going on first date exactly.
- 26:05Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's so we're there, I'm doing the thing,
- 26:10Speaker 2: you know whatnot not really shred misself and glory, but
- 26:13Speaker 2: you know, you're you're, you're eating. And there was a
- 26:16Speaker 2: buy across me. And I've seen him come in. That's
- 26:18Speaker 2: how I that's how I know. Like I followed every
- 26:21Speaker 2: single thing he yet, right, and you think this is
- 26:23Speaker 2: going to be a story about oh yeah, rings around
- 26:26Speaker 2: him aug just yet god knows what. And he had
- 26:28Speaker 2: like a kebab with a trio on it and a
- 26:31Speaker 2: pizza on top of it and a bit of a
- 26:32Speaker 2: steak and all this kind of thing. No, this man
- 26:34Speaker 2: came in and sat down. He was, you know, maybe
- 26:37Speaker 2: a little older than me, it's about fifty give or
- 26:39Speaker 2: give or take, okay, and he ate ice cream. He
- 26:45Speaker 2: went to the It had like a like a like
- 26:47Speaker 2: a like a ninety nine machine. You could go and
- 26:49Speaker 2: get in ninety nine. Okay, when you're finishing meal, you
- 26:51Speaker 2: can go get in ninety nine, as was the natural
- 26:52Speaker 2: order of things. Right, hold on, He paid twenty twenty
- 26:55Speaker 2: pounds starting okay, watch you know on that's right, which
- 26:57Speaker 2: is about twenty five euros twenty five years right, right.
- 27:02Speaker 2: He went up and he got himself in ninety nine,
- 27:04Speaker 2: no flake, and he came back down because it struck
- 27:06Speaker 2: me as odd because he sat down and that was
- 27:08Speaker 2: the fortune he did. And all the other people of
- 27:09Speaker 2: his party got food, you know what I mean. He
- 27:13Speaker 2: went up and got an ice cream. And I was like, okay,
- 27:15Speaker 2: you know, don't judge, and I'm not coping at this man.
- 27:17Speaker 2: He's right across from me. He was all right, was
- 27:19Speaker 2: he like he Now that's what I was going to say.
- 27:21Speaker 2: I was like, oh, you know, maybe like you know,
- 27:22Speaker 2: he's Celiac or some ship. I don't know, but they
- 27:26Speaker 2: they've got a wonderful section for bluten free. And no,
- 27:29Speaker 2: he was just just that's I was like, Okay, the
- 27:31Speaker 2: heart wants that. The heart wants. He wanted an ice cream,
- 27:33Speaker 2: and he went and got it ice cream, an ice
- 27:38Speaker 2: cream and a cone, and he ate the ice cream,
- 27:40Speaker 2: but he didn't eat the cone. Ah here and this
- 27:44Speaker 2: is what caught me. I I'd been up in a
- 27:45Speaker 2: couple of times, and your man'ster late in this ice
- 27:47Speaker 2: cream and just caught me a tom. The only thing
- 27:50Speaker 2: I can describe you is he stubbed the cone out
- 27:53Speaker 2: on the plate like it was a cigarette. Okay, so
- 27:57Speaker 2: yet all the ice cream off it. And then he
- 27:58Speaker 2: turned the cone upside down and sort of like moistured
- 28:00Speaker 2: into the into the plate, like as he'd stub out
- 28:02Speaker 2: a cigarette. And the way for cones was just smush
- 28:04Speaker 2: much mush right.
- 28:05Speaker 4: Sure, I hope you followed that man to wherever he
- 28:09Speaker 4: was going next, because a murder happened after that.
- 28:11Speaker 2: I can tell you, well, I'll tell you where he
- 28:13Speaker 2: went next time. I can tell you exactly where he
- 28:15Speaker 2: went next. Going he went back up and got another nineteen.
- 28:20Speaker 2: Oh my god, he's skinning. So he's wearing somebody's skin
- 28:24Speaker 2: right now, Jair right, Oh, he ate the other ninety nine,
- 28:28Speaker 2: and I'm like, what is happening here. But okay, he
- 28:31Speaker 2: stubbed out like a fag again on the plate, stopped
- 28:33Speaker 2: it out like a two soft serve ice creams right
- 28:38Speaker 2: sticking up off the plate. Yeah. And then someone came
- 28:42Speaker 2: away and came and cleared that away from him, and
- 28:43Speaker 2: he went up, Tom he went up. Honestly, I was
- 28:45Speaker 2: feeding myself, you know. But he must have went up
- 28:48Speaker 2: and got about six ninety nine s haha, No, that's
- 28:50Speaker 2: what he did. Six to seven ninety nine's taken down,
- 28:54Speaker 2: eat the ice cream, smashed away for into the into
- 28:57Speaker 2: the thing, and went on as beds business. And he
- 28:59Speaker 2: was still there when we were leaving, up and up
- 29:01Speaker 2: and down to get ninety nine. Now, if you want
- 29:03Speaker 2: to ask me out of pure sums, okay, okay, go
- 29:07Speaker 2: buy yourself in ninety nine right now, you're going to
- 29:08Speaker 2: cost you three euro so six of them is about
- 29:11Speaker 2: eighteen euro. So he's I dare say, three ice creams
- 29:14Speaker 2: off profit? Right, Yeah, But that didn't seem to annoy him.
- 29:19Speaker 2: He just wanted soft serve ice cream. And I'm not
- 29:22Speaker 2: slagging this man. I'm not giving out. I'm not you know,
- 29:25Speaker 2: saying he should or shouldn't have done it. All I'm
- 29:27Speaker 2: saying is it struck me as a very very strange thing.
- 29:32Speaker 2: Was he alone or with somebody? No, he was with
- 29:34Speaker 2: a party of people and they were just eating normally normally.
- 29:37Speaker 2: I say, they were eating like you're twenty pound, you
- 29:41Speaker 2: can eat nobody's, yeah, nobody's, None of us is eaten normally.
- 29:44Speaker 4: They're eating like the first fucking season of fucking of
- 29:48Speaker 4: the Walking Dead.
- 29:49Speaker 2: That's what you're so yeah, so so that you know,
- 29:52Speaker 2: and that man, I gotta tell you, praise be but
- 29:54Speaker 2: a thousand's bossom, a thousands bosto. But it made me
- 30:02Speaker 2: eat Tom question myself and I put it to you
- 30:06Speaker 2: now and the listeners of the Tom and Jerry Show.
- 30:08Speaker 2: That's how that lad handled is all you can eat
- 30:11Speaker 2: buffet experience. I'm going to ask you, Tom, now, how
- 30:15Speaker 2: do you eat yours?
- 30:16Speaker 4: I'll tell you how I took. I took a sharp
- 30:19Speaker 4: learning off that fell at that time I went. I
- 30:21Speaker 4: got taken to the Golden Corral or whatever it was,
- 30:26Speaker 4: number one like that, Like it sounds like you were
- 30:30Speaker 4: even at a classier venue than I was at. To
- 30:32Speaker 4: be honest with you, marginally, no matter like you really
- 30:35Speaker 4: were like you were at you know you were in
- 30:38Speaker 4: fucking Fortam Mason.
- 30:40Speaker 2: Like in Jesus Christ, I was saying it was clean.
- 30:42Speaker 2: Let me put it to you like that. It was
- 30:44Speaker 2: clean too.
- 30:45Speaker 4: Place I was in was clean because it was fucking clean,
- 30:48Speaker 4: empty from the fucking cells I was fucking eating around.
- 30:50Speaker 2: The place was clean. The people in it not so much. So.
- 30:54Speaker 2: I I've been to a couple.
- 30:55Speaker 4: There's a great agent one Limerick. It's it's it was
- 30:59Speaker 4: originally a Chinese, now it's all the world, you know
- 31:01Speaker 4: what I mean.
- 31:01Speaker 2: It is Yeah, yeah, that means that it's the Chinese
- 31:04Speaker 2: and about three or four Indian dishes. Yeah yeah, I know.
- 31:07Speaker 4: You can get a steak and you can get there.
- 31:09Speaker 4: But there's a chocolate fountain. Everybody gets excited by that,
- 31:11Speaker 4: you know what I mean. But I wouldn't have a
- 31:13Speaker 4: look at a chair because the MSG blow you out.
- 31:17Speaker 4: You're at you're at, not trying to really set a
- 31:19Speaker 4: record anyway, make your money back because one thing the
- 31:22Speaker 4: Chinese letter are unbelieved, black tasty, grob but they ain't lose.
- 31:26Speaker 2: They do not lose. No, that is the thing I mean. Like,
- 31:28Speaker 2: so what I'm hearing from you here, Thomas, when you
- 31:30Speaker 2: go to and All you Can Eat Buffe. You really
- 31:32Speaker 2: feel like, ah, finally Jerry wins, finally Tom wins. I'm
- 31:37Speaker 2: going to I'm not going to be changed. I'm not
- 31:40Speaker 2: going to go home. Like we go to McDonald's and
- 31:42Speaker 2: you're up the road five minutes, you're like fucking hungry.
- 31:44Speaker 2: Now you're like, I'm going to They're gonna regret. Let
- 31:47Speaker 2: me into this place. And that is my goal every
- 31:51Speaker 2: time I have it. As we you know some here's
- 31:53Speaker 2: Thomas and I would question how much we do win,
- 31:55Speaker 2: but go.
- 31:56Speaker 4: On a bottom let's brunch these things like I've been
- 31:58Speaker 4: at that, Like we we drank all we could drink
- 32:01Speaker 4: for twenty nine. It was thirty euros in Amsterdam in
- 32:05Speaker 4: an hour, and I made money in that one. I
- 32:07Speaker 4: made money in that one.
- 32:08Speaker 2: But let's discuss. Let's discuss.
- 32:10Speaker 4: Okay, I lost money, let's be honest. But I lost
- 32:14Speaker 4: thirty euros, but I fucking drank about fifty quid in
- 32:16Speaker 4: that hour.
- 32:17Speaker 2: Right, So this is this is this is what plays
- 32:20Speaker 2: on my mind when I go to and All you
- 32:21Speaker 2: Can Eat. Oh, it's the number one thing.
- 32:24Speaker 4: I'm not going there because you know it's got a
- 32:27Speaker 4: fucking emission star. No, I am not going there for
- 32:30Speaker 4: food experience. I'm going there to win.
- 32:32Speaker 2: Like I go there if I think, like if I
- 32:34Speaker 2: go to a normal, normal walk in restaurant, like nothing fancy,
- 32:37Speaker 2: but in the Nando's of this world, shall we say, right,
- 32:40Speaker 2: you know where it's just like a regular shopping center restaurant,
- 32:43Speaker 2: not you know, nobody's going here for fucking you know,
- 32:47Speaker 2: you know, bringing Barack Obama there or anything like that. Right.
- 32:50Speaker 2: If I go to Nando's and negative starter on a
- 32:52Speaker 2: main course, okay, my starter is chicken wings, and my
- 32:57Speaker 2: main courses share chicken and chips of some sorts. Okay,
- 33:00Speaker 2: So if I go to an all you can eat
- 33:02Speaker 2: place and it's like twenty quid and Nandos is thirty
- 33:05Speaker 2: standers a cheaping but no, it's not. I want to
- 33:08Speaker 2: think that I got the thirty euros worth of food
- 33:11Speaker 2: that I would get Nando's for twenty quid and the
- 33:14Speaker 2: dessert and maybe maybe a play of ribs on top
- 33:18Speaker 2: of that. And I'm just doing some of my head
- 33:19Speaker 2: like okay, I've I've won, I've won. I'm a massive winner.
- 33:22Speaker 4: Tom Well, there's ways of going about it, and the
- 33:25Speaker 4: best success I ever had, and it's kind of hard
- 33:28Speaker 4: to gauge price wise, but I think I won at
- 33:30Speaker 4: this one. I probably didn't, but it was a very
- 33:34Speaker 4: It'd be very hard to recreate what I did here,
- 33:36Speaker 4: but the preparation.
- 33:37Speaker 2: Because the cousin had been to all of these. He
- 33:39Speaker 2: was in America. He was this city.
- 33:41Speaker 4: He's been in America. He was the son of that ant.
- 33:44Speaker 4: But he was living in New York. And he says,
- 33:46Speaker 4: a couple of all you can eat. I'm like Jesus Christ,
- 33:48Speaker 4: but it's with your family and all you can eat.
- 33:49Speaker 4: He's like, no, no, this is there some tasty ones
- 33:52Speaker 4: around here. We were in Ynkers.
- 33:54Speaker 2: He says, look, We'll get a cab up to this place.
- 33:57Speaker 2: I just want to go for beer. It's well, go
- 33:59Speaker 2: for beer, and we go for beer before we go. Jess, no, no, no, no, no, no no, no,
- 34:03Speaker 2: oh no no no. This is when I were well
- 34:06Speaker 2: early in the day. He is, by the way, are
- 34:07Speaker 2: you well hydrated? Are you sick in the fucking face? Nah? Man.
- 34:12Speaker 4: He was on the exact same mindset as me. He
- 34:14Speaker 4: was like, oh no, we go to win, to win.
- 34:17Speaker 4: And he says, by the way, this buffet is a
- 34:19Speaker 4: classy setup. It's like sixty dollars ahead. It's seated. They
- 34:23Speaker 4: bring it to you, right, I'm like, okay, don't worry,
- 34:26Speaker 4: I cover it even making good money. And he says,
- 34:31Speaker 4: but it's kind of obscure foods, right, so he says
- 34:34Speaker 4: it won't be It was him talking about the Asian MSG.
- 34:37Speaker 4: It's so tasty, but you'll blow.
- 34:39Speaker 2: Up on it.
- 34:40Speaker 4: He says, what this nowe jaredis is mad like every
- 34:42Speaker 4: It was one of those Brazilian barbecues where they bring
- 34:45Speaker 4: out to bring him out on a secure and it
- 34:47Speaker 4: might be duck on one, it might be snake on
- 34:50Speaker 4: the other. It could be beef on the other. So
- 34:53Speaker 4: pick can choose the lighters, the lighter ones you can.
- 34:56Speaker 4: But he said, it's all about the preparation ure. He said,
- 34:58Speaker 4: I tell you one thing. When they go in door,
- 35:00Speaker 4: he's still offer you a beer. We can drink beer
- 35:03Speaker 4: all day long. Afterwards he says, no, no beer, And
- 35:06Speaker 4: don't let him bring you sweet tea. He still bring
- 35:08Speaker 4: you sweetea, or they bring your Coke cola. He's because
- 35:10Speaker 4: they know the sugary stuff filled you up. Don't touch anything, okay, okay,
- 35:13Speaker 4: good to no go to know, get a bit of exercise,
- 35:15Speaker 4: in that day, so you're actually building up a calory.
- 35:18Speaker 2: Do all you can eat? If I am starving, I wouldn't. Don't.
- 35:21Speaker 4: Don't be out, No, no, don't be out and out starvinger.
- 35:24Speaker 4: Don't be out and out like I haven't had a
- 35:27Speaker 4: big lunch. Yeah, because you'll go like a pig at
- 35:29Speaker 4: the day. Now before you know it is coming out
- 35:31Speaker 4: your fucking nose, and you haven't won.
- 35:33Speaker 2: You're only up.
- 35:34Speaker 4: But we definitely definitely got into the fifties anyway with
- 35:39Speaker 4: the amount of decent quality. If I can meet that
- 35:42Speaker 4: I got, if you right, that can be said in America.
- 35:44Speaker 4: But at the same time, I walked away pretty pretty
- 35:48Speaker 4: fucking proud. Didn't touch your podata. There wasn't a carab
- 35:50Speaker 4: went near me. Didn't go near that ship with that ship.
- 35:55Speaker 4: I don't trying to get you with the rice A
- 35:56Speaker 4: big play of rice, do you know. I'm sorry, it's
- 35:59Speaker 4: it's a uh And you know, things like pizza and
- 36:03Speaker 4: things like this.
- 36:03Speaker 2: Tome is just bread. You're just gonna blow. Get out
- 36:06Speaker 2: of my face.
- 36:06Speaker 4: No, no, go straight to the meat. If you want
- 36:08Speaker 4: to get your money back, go straight to the meat.
- 36:10Speaker 4: You can spend the rest of your life eating vegetables. Yeah,
- 36:14Speaker 4: eating bread, all the rice you want at home, eating
- 36:16Speaker 4: breads at home, Jesus Christ. Like you can get bread
- 36:19Speaker 4: anywhere anytime. Literally, you probably have bread on you right
- 36:21Speaker 4: now somewhere. Go straight to the meats. If you want
- 36:24Speaker 4: to try and make some money back, get to the meats.
- 36:27Speaker 4: Don't be lashing on the gravy. A little bit of
- 36:30Speaker 4: dipping sauce, no problem, but water number one. Don't be
- 36:33Speaker 4: going for the bottomless Coca cola. It's fucking country spring
- 36:37Speaker 4: at best, and it's probably so, it's probably soda stream. Yeah,
- 36:40Speaker 4: don't be going near that syrupy shit if you want
- 36:43Speaker 4: to make your money back. If you want to go
- 36:45Speaker 4: for a normal meal and go I'm not a complete pig.
- 36:46Speaker 2: Go to the Damon Jerry showtime or way past normal.
- 36:50Speaker 4: Go to fuck a normal restaurant. Yeah you normal. I
- 36:53Speaker 4: mean if you win for a challenge or not, Like,
- 36:55Speaker 4: we don't bow out these things.
- 36:56Speaker 2: What are we doing here, guys? You don't bow out?
- 36:59Speaker 4: I mean, if you really were super prepped, you'd have
- 37:02Speaker 4: a light breakfast, maybe like a super lunch, have a
- 37:06Speaker 4: good night sleep the night before.
- 37:07Speaker 2: I'm not joke, I would.
- 37:09Speaker 4: Stretch an Everton jer like I would get a proper
- 37:12Speaker 4: stretch on before I go.
- 37:14Speaker 2: Maybe get to the gym if you can. That's what
- 37:16Speaker 2: I will say to you. Tom is now as I
- 37:18Speaker 2: as a this could be just me outing major health
- 37:21Speaker 2: problems on the common Jerry showing and the comments Cherry,
- 37:23Speaker 2: you want to fucking get that look power doctor, doctor Internet,
- 37:27Speaker 2: let's go couldn't help. But notice you mentioned several key
- 37:30Speaker 2: symptoms of some worrying disease, Jerry, So just get that.
- 37:33Speaker 2: Fucking Here's the thing. It feels as I've grown older
- 37:35Speaker 2: that my stomach has gotten smaller that you know, I
- 37:38Speaker 2: used to physically physically be able to eat an awful
- 37:41Speaker 2: lot more. Yeah, I literally the space has.
- 37:47Speaker 4: I think, so I think, But there are specifics, there
- 37:50Speaker 4: are certain foods where I can still absolutely fucking hammer
- 37:55Speaker 4: it into me, Like I mean, if it was just
- 37:58Speaker 4: a play to stake chu, I will fucking eat my
- 38:02Speaker 4: head size in that. I don't know what it is,
- 38:04Speaker 4: but you put pasted out in front of me. You
- 38:06Speaker 4: put maybe shit's changing too, Maybe shit's changing because maybe
- 38:09Speaker 4: they're fucking getting away with murder now in what they're
- 38:12Speaker 4: putting into some stuff. But I cannot there's no way
- 38:16Speaker 4: when it comes to anything outside of half daycent mate,
- 38:20Speaker 4: I can't touch anything close than what I could in authorities,
- 38:23Speaker 4: not at all.
- 38:24Speaker 2: Again, I go back to, I go back to you know,
- 38:27Speaker 2: portion sizes, and you know, I hate to be tackling this.
- 38:31Speaker 2: And here's the thing, folks, We're not just going in
- 38:33Speaker 2: there eating the things we don't like, you know what
- 38:36Speaker 2: I mean. It's it's not like, well, you know, I
- 38:38Speaker 2: don't really like it, but I'll hoist it into me
- 38:40Speaker 2: just for you know, pure bloody mindless. There are the
- 38:43Speaker 2: things you like you will naturally gravitate it. For example,
- 38:46Speaker 2: I like, you know, chicken wings and prontos and things
- 38:49Speaker 2: like this when I get them in a Chinese right, yeah, yeah,
- 38:52Speaker 2: if you buy prontos from your local Chinese takeaway it's
- 38:55Speaker 2: six bucks and you get like four or five slices
- 38:58Speaker 2: of it, totally get ridden. You're getting ridden to when
- 39:02Speaker 2: you think about it. Lock up the dublin, by the way.
- 39:05Speaker 2: So if I go into and All you can Eat
- 39:06Speaker 2: place and I eight slices a pron toast, I figured
- 39:09Speaker 2: that that's twelve quid straight away to see that these
- 39:12Speaker 2: are the sums I'm doing. Jerry, you don't have to.
- 39:14Speaker 2: You don't have to.
- 39:15Speaker 4: I know you're explaining it to the listeners, but I'm
- 39:17Speaker 4: just nodding along witch you here, because I have all
- 39:19Speaker 4: these factors built in as well, and it's I'm just
- 39:22Speaker 4: ludicrously and childishly admittedly competitive with stupid scenarios like and
- 39:29Speaker 4: I will compete if I just want to compete. I
- 39:31Speaker 4: just want the value of it. But you are, you
- 39:33Speaker 4: are competitive Jurry in that sense, because you're like, I
- 39:35Speaker 4: need to beat the man here, like I need to
- 39:37Speaker 4: beat the man.
- 39:38Speaker 2: It's now if it's.
- 39:40Speaker 4: An independently owned one, you know, one family home restaurant,
- 39:44Speaker 4: I ain't doing the dog on it.
- 39:45Speaker 2: Like, but you know you're.
- 39:47Speaker 4: Walking into that place and they've got nine more restaurants
- 39:50Speaker 4: just like it, you know what I mean.
- 39:51Speaker 2: Also probably worth pointing out at this point, Tom, like,
- 39:54Speaker 2: you can eat whatever the fuck you want in this place.
- 39:57Speaker 2: You're not beating the man. You don't beat He has
- 40:00Speaker 2: beaten nobody. I promise you you could feel it's a
- 40:03Speaker 2: moral victory at best. Gordon Ramsey didn't cook that ship,
- 40:06Speaker 2: you know what I mean. It's it's okay, oh my god,
- 40:10Speaker 2: we're going to have to fucking you know play staff
- 40:12Speaker 2: off on. Although you say that there's a great TV show.
- 40:17Speaker 4: Episode, I don't know what it was on it would
- 40:19Speaker 4: it was like it wasn't a maybe it was a vice,
- 40:21Speaker 4: I don't know, but it was America's fattest city, Houston.
- 40:26Speaker 2: But they followed Houston, yeah at the time.
- 40:29Speaker 4: And it was at the time of watching this, and
- 40:33Speaker 4: you know people that need to be you know, they
- 40:35Speaker 4: need to kind go out the wall to get him
- 40:36Speaker 4: to the down the road. And but there this one fella.
- 40:40Speaker 4: They followed him around and he was a professional eater,
- 40:44Speaker 4: gotcha he went. He just there was that many competitions
- 40:48Speaker 4: in the state of Texas that this fellow was able
- 40:50Speaker 4: to make about three or four grand a week going
- 40:52Speaker 4: around eight and all around him and I think was
- 40:54Speaker 4: he wasn't that big of a like he you'd say
- 40:58Speaker 4: he was a big but he was seven ft chair right,
- 41:00Speaker 4: so we hadn't did it put it away? And he
- 41:02Speaker 4: was about, no joke, about five foot wide at the shoulder.
- 41:06Speaker 4: So this man would walk in, you got, what's a
- 41:09Speaker 4: big man. But the next thing he'd sit down and
- 41:11Speaker 4: go right, give me up a full quarter of a
- 41:14Speaker 4: fucking cow there and least every fucking bit of So
- 41:18Speaker 4: he was actually banned from loads above these buffets because
- 41:20Speaker 4: we're like, no, no, we'll actually know there's no joker.
- 41:23Speaker 4: Now you've all tried, but that fella is proven to
- 41:27Speaker 4: break us. He'll fucking break us if he comes in
- 41:30Speaker 4: because he will eat from nine am to nine pm.
- 41:33Speaker 2: He is going to impact the bottom line.
- 41:35Speaker 4: And he there's because there's no fuck off time. He'll
- 41:38Speaker 4: probably take two shots in between, you know what I mean?
- 41:41Speaker 4: Here for the day, he was a seasoned pro.
- 41:43Speaker 2: This fella had the tank of a fucking hippo on him.
- 41:45Speaker 4: Like, so there's there is one or two that will
- 41:48Speaker 4: break the system, but you need to be a literal
- 41:51Speaker 4: freak to be able to do.
- 41:53Speaker 2: Gotcha. Well, listen to him before we move on from
- 41:55Speaker 2: this segment. Give me your one piece of advice, or
- 41:58Speaker 2: give me, give me give you a better game. What's
- 41:59Speaker 2: your first plate in a buffet you walk in, You're
- 42:02Speaker 2: going up to make one plate. Tell me what you're doing,
- 42:04Speaker 2: small or small, It's got to be small. Whatever you're
- 42:07Speaker 2: going for if you can get even if it's if
- 42:09Speaker 2: it's I genuinely would go for I wouldn't go for
- 42:13Speaker 2: high fat or high or fucking anywhere near breads. I
- 42:16Speaker 2: you know, I'm so tempted all the time. If you
- 42:18Speaker 2: can't checking, I'll get you as well, like if you
- 42:20Speaker 2: can try and get just like under saucy.
- 42:25Speaker 4: Don't get like a satie, but get like get an
- 42:28Speaker 4: maybe just a Korean barbecue set of chicken wings, just
- 42:31Speaker 4: to get your fucking down the road. They won't fill
- 42:34Speaker 4: you up, but don't be cutting yourself. There's a lot
- 42:35Speaker 4: of MSG in.
- 42:36Speaker 2: That fucking tasty, tasty, tasty sauce.
- 42:39Speaker 4: But it'll just get you down the road. It won't
- 42:42Speaker 4: fill you up in any sense. But now now you'll
- 42:44Speaker 4: take the hunger off you where you can focus the mind.
- 42:45Speaker 2: You know that gonna way.
- 42:46Speaker 4: So I would go for a chicken wing of sort,
- 42:48Speaker 4: not too saucy. What about yourself, I'll.
- 42:51Speaker 2: Tell you what I do. I'll tell you what I do.
- 42:54Speaker 2: Have a technique in a technique in all you can
- 42:57Speaker 2: eat place is on my first plate, at least tom
- 43:00Speaker 2: first player, at least. I call it tapass for one.
- 43:03Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, which is.
- 43:06Speaker 2: Just a small portion of everything I like the look of. Yeah, okay,
- 43:11Speaker 2: maybe three or four different things for wings, you get
- 43:14Speaker 2: any wings and ribs and maybe this kind of this
- 43:17Speaker 2: bread chicken looks nice, and maybe this mushroom thing looks nice,
- 43:20Speaker 2: and maybe this over here looks nice. I'll take that
- 43:22Speaker 2: back and then try a little bit of ever and
- 43:25Speaker 2: whatever I like the most. That's I'm gonna go get
- 43:27Speaker 2: two plates to that.
- 43:28Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. Confidence is up to after it,
- 43:31Speaker 4: isn't it. You know?
- 43:32Speaker 2: Two plates of that, and once I've got like two
- 43:35Speaker 2: full dinner and assorted wings and ribs and whatnot, I'm fine. Yeah, yeah,
- 43:41Speaker 2: we're not gonna do. I'm not gonna go in and
- 43:43Speaker 2: fucking chase down a carton of ninety nine's like their
- 43:48Speaker 2: Carol's number twenties. I'm sorry. I'll telling you now.
- 43:52Speaker 4: Even though he might have been there with a group
- 43:54Speaker 4: or whatever, that man is either his lamp shade or himself.
- 43:58Speaker 2: He is wearing somebody's skin right now.
- 44:00Speaker 4: That is it all the signs of as deeply so,
- 44:04Speaker 4: I got a human.
- 44:06Speaker 2: Behavior trying to post your phot around up. But that
- 44:08Speaker 2: was yeah, that was there. Here's the thing.
- 44:10Speaker 4: He's probably you know, a secondary school geography teacher.
- 44:14Speaker 2: Do you know what I mean? He loves ice cream? No,
- 44:16Speaker 2: maybe maybe we're being mean. He's just like he loves
- 44:18Speaker 2: ice cream like.
- 44:19Speaker 4: I got handled one of them after getting absolutely riddled
- 44:22Speaker 4: for the price of Asian street food one night on
- 44:27Speaker 4: Caple Street.
- 44:27Speaker 2: I used to do a bit about this.
- 44:28Speaker 4: But the thing was it got a great pop, but
- 44:31Speaker 4: it actually made me so fucking angry that I had
- 44:33Speaker 4: to stop telling it because it would ruin the rest
- 44:35Speaker 4: of my say it because it was a one hundred
- 44:36Speaker 4: percent trough.
- 44:37Speaker 2: When I walked in, they were charging like.
- 44:39Speaker 4: Twenty eight euros on a Tuesday night for some.
- 44:42Speaker 2: A dish daymore or less chose.
- 44:44Speaker 4: And it was like, it's Asian street foot and we're
- 44:47Speaker 4: all sitting on fucking scavening boards.
- 44:49Speaker 2: And I got and it was the Chewest how shit.
- 44:51Speaker 4: I'm like, okay, so it's the consistency of street food,
- 44:54Speaker 4: but you want to charge me sitting in a comfortable
- 44:56Speaker 4: restaurant while I'm sitting with nailstick up my hole. And
- 44:59Speaker 4: then when I went by up to your man, because
- 45:01Speaker 4: do you know how it works? Here is what he said.
- 45:03Speaker 4: I remember him one and only time I spent in Nandos.
- 45:05Speaker 4: I spent fourteen seconds in Nandos. I walked in the door.
- 45:07Speaker 4: English guy goes, do you know how it works? Here,
- 45:09Speaker 4: I went, gluck, good luck, yep for that with me.
- 45:12Speaker 4: The guy handed me a soft serve of ice cream cone.
- 45:15Speaker 4: He went, okay, it's complimentary. After your meal, you can
- 45:18Speaker 4: have one of these. And I crushed in front of the
- 45:21Speaker 4: jar and brushed it back in over the counter, onto
- 45:23Speaker 4: his floor and walked out. It was then as she
- 45:26Speaker 4: knew what she was married to, because we've been engaged
- 45:28Speaker 4: about a week at that stage, was like, right, okay, yeah,
- 45:32Speaker 4: I can change him.
- 45:34Speaker 2: Turns out couldn't. That was this lad, and like he
- 45:37Speaker 2: went in, what can I tell you? So these aren't
- 45:39Speaker 2: earth moving things? We need to hear people's lists from
- 45:42Speaker 2: this one. Yeah, we really want to hear your techniques.
- 45:44Speaker 2: What are we missing on the on the all you
- 45:46Speaker 2: can eat places? But that was that kind of thing,
- 45:47Speaker 2: and like, you know, it could be maybe we're the
- 45:49Speaker 2: bad guys here, Tom. Maybe it was just like he
- 45:52Speaker 2: waited his whole life to eat ninety nine's like a child,
- 45:55Speaker 2: and the one day he did, he got slagged off
- 45:57Speaker 2: on one of Ireland's most platowing platform to Tom and
- 46:01Speaker 2: Jerry show, here's the thing, Tom, maybe there was a
- 46:06Speaker 2: time in our lives where our ideal dream meal would
- 46:09Speaker 2: have been six ninety nine in a row. Maybe there
- 46:12Speaker 2: was a time when you or I were gasoons, when
- 46:15Speaker 2: we were young fellas, we would have liked six ninety
- 46:17Speaker 2: nine in a row. But you know what it is, Tom,
- 46:20Speaker 2: we weren't gas since yesterday. Buddy. It's been a while,
- 46:22Speaker 2: all right, It's been a while. And in that time,
- 46:25Speaker 2: in the thirty to forty years that have passed, we've
- 46:28Speaker 2: seen some shit and now we're going to take a
- 46:30Speaker 2: look back at it on the closing segment of the show,
- 46:32Speaker 2: which is called we Remember when.
- 46:35Speaker 4: When I was a young lad twenty or thirty or
- 46:38Speaker 4: forty years ago.
- 46:40Speaker 2: We are positive or negative one this week. It's a
- 46:42Speaker 2: weird one, Tom, It's a weird one every now and then,
- 46:45Speaker 2: like you know, we will go we remember WrestleMania, and
- 46:48Speaker 2: we remember the A Team and all this kind of shit.
- 46:50Speaker 2: We try to avoid these things. We try and we're
- 46:52Speaker 2: not a deep podcast in any stretch of the imagination.
- 46:57Speaker 2: But given the time of year that it is, Tom,
- 47:00Speaker 2: it struck me this week. I found myself seeing these
- 47:03Speaker 2: words out loud, which was strange because I was on
- 47:05Speaker 2: my own crowded business place. That's it, I said out loud,
- 47:10Speaker 2: I remember when Christmas didn't start in the first of
- 47:13Speaker 2: fucking September, and there is which it is currently in
- 47:20Speaker 2: the process of doing.
- 47:21Speaker 4: I have yet to meet anybody, anybody who thinks it's
- 47:25Speaker 4: a good idea.
- 47:26Speaker 2: I get it.
- 47:27Speaker 4: If you're a hungry bastard shop, I get it. But
- 47:31Speaker 4: as I was telling you before, where we're chit chatting before,
- 47:34Speaker 4: a six year old, some stuff you just can't argue
- 47:36Speaker 4: with a child over he came out like he came
- 47:39Speaker 4: out and said it. The other day he saw like
- 47:40Speaker 4: Christmas decorations is like now two things on the same day, again,
- 47:45Speaker 4: can't argue with it's led. Two things on the same
- 47:48Speaker 4: day were in a shop in up on the way
- 47:51Speaker 4: to get those, I was ordered those goats got chopping
- 47:56Speaker 4: and at.
- 47:58Speaker 2: Least goats Joe List least Billy goats, least goats, Tom
- 48:03Speaker 2: don't buy them. Yeah, you're right, you're right.
- 48:05Speaker 4: There is a guy actually West Cork called Billy rents
- 48:10Speaker 4: goats and he'll rent goats to you to.
- 48:12Speaker 2: The d Briarer area anyway.
- 48:15Speaker 4: Anyway, he asked me a question because we saw Christmas
- 48:17Speaker 4: decorations hanging up in like a Dun's or something.
- 48:19Speaker 2: One of these things. It's like it was Christmas decorations, like, yep,
- 48:23Speaker 2: what are they doing there? What are we doing here?
- 48:25Speaker 4: I just went back to school, I mean, and I
- 48:28Speaker 4: got no nothing. I'm like, hey, the shops want to
- 48:30Speaker 4: get them out, and cause he goes displads the.
- 48:32Speaker 2: Time for that, like Jesus Christ hard.
- 48:34Speaker 4: In the same time, we walked into what it was,
- 48:37Speaker 4: you know, Maria, the official Tipperary GA shop. It's the
- 48:42Speaker 4: front of the shop is all Tipperary gear. The rest
- 48:44Speaker 4: of it is lifetile sports or something some and my
- 48:47Speaker 4: son walked through it, picked up a couple of different
- 48:49Speaker 4: balls thrown back and forth to me, and then pointed
- 48:51Speaker 4: to him like.
- 48:52Speaker 2: Oh, so this is more stuff.
- 48:53Speaker 4: So there's the Ireland stuff over there, and there's a
- 48:55Speaker 4: Tipperary stuff there. And then he looked up and he's
- 48:57Speaker 4: from a distance he saw a red jersey up on
- 48:58Speaker 4: the wall. He went, oh, monstery And I looked and
- 49:01Speaker 4: I went, no, it's that's not a monster jersey. That's
- 49:03Speaker 4: as a Liverpool soccer jersey. And again he asked, what's
- 49:07Speaker 4: that doing here? And there was a father over his shoulder,
- 49:13Speaker 4: clocked out at me, and nearly for a split second
- 49:15Speaker 4: he was like, tell him there's Liverpool supporters in Ireland.
- 49:18Speaker 4: But in fairness he looked at my face and I
- 49:20Speaker 4: look back at him, and even he kind of went,
- 49:22Speaker 4: kid's got a fair point.
- 49:23Speaker 2: Kids got a fair point. You come here, Tom, We
- 49:27Speaker 2: know the answer to this question, right, We remember when
- 49:29Speaker 2: and start selling Christmas shit in September? Right, Yeah, here's
- 49:32Speaker 2: the thing, right, you nailed there, the money, get it
- 49:35Speaker 2: in the shop, get it in front of people, get
- 49:37Speaker 2: it on people's radar. Make them terrified that they're going
- 49:40Speaker 2: to miss something. Yeah, if you leave it, hey, Tom,
- 49:45Speaker 2: nobody wants to be running around the shops with a
- 49:47Speaker 2: week to go to Christmas. I mean people have stress
- 49:49Speaker 2: dreams about that.
- 49:50Speaker 1: You know.
- 49:50Speaker 2: Oh God, I gotta go. So if you can get
- 49:52Speaker 2: a head start and buy a bunch of shit in September,
- 49:55Speaker 2: all the better. Or if we can put the fear
- 49:56Speaker 2: of God into you, like you won't have a good
- 49:59Speaker 2: Christmas unless you start saving your money.
- 50:02Speaker 4: Now, it's do you know what? There's something deeply deeply
- 50:08Speaker 4: nasty about it. I think because you buy this Christmas stuff,
- 50:14Speaker 4: whether you get anywhere, at any time, at any speed. Now,
- 50:17Speaker 4: it's not like nineteen eighty when We're like, there's no
- 50:20Speaker 4: tinsel in all of Dublin.
- 50:21Speaker 2: Well, that is the question I want to ask you.
- 50:24Speaker 2: I could buy.
- 50:24Speaker 4: Fourteen miles of tinsel on the twenty third and it
- 50:28Speaker 4: will deliver. It would be here by the twenty fourth.
- 50:32Speaker 4: There is no right, There is no reason other than
- 50:35Speaker 4: stealing and spreading the spirit and fun of Christmas all
- 50:40Speaker 4: the way back as far as September.
- 50:42Speaker 2: How are you?
- 50:42Speaker 4: How is that even supposed to get pumped in September? Well, Christmas,
- 50:46Speaker 4: You're like, here, we better get the fucking decorations. You're
- 50:48Speaker 4: like Jesus Christ, already your curseon'swearing about.
- 50:51Speaker 2: The joy of Christmas. That's off to a bad start.
- 50:54Speaker 4: Do you know even if you're rushing a bit a
- 50:56Speaker 4: week out? I mean, like, how I've got for it?
- 51:01Speaker 4: Are you if you've left it a week out?
- 51:03Speaker 2: Two weeks out?
- 51:04Speaker 4: You know?
- 51:04Speaker 2: Here's the question I want to ask you. Right, here's
- 51:05Speaker 2: a question I want to ask you because I you know,
- 51:08Speaker 2: for a segment that's called we remember when here's something
- 51:10Speaker 2: that I don't remember. Okay, but maybe you can help
- 51:13Speaker 2: me out. I don't remember when Christmas used to start,
- 51:18Speaker 2: like when I was little, when I was like between
- 51:21Speaker 2: ten and fifteen before that as the blur. It's the
- 51:24Speaker 2: first and ever time I know that it didn't start
- 51:26Speaker 2: in September that much. I do know, but I can't
- 51:28Speaker 2: tell you when it did start. Why would they have
- 51:31Speaker 2: had the grace to let us get into December before
- 51:33Speaker 2: the hills with this?
- 51:34Speaker 4: I think I asked my mother about it, and she
- 51:36Speaker 4: was She said, in the likes of queens work and
- 51:39Speaker 4: stuff like that, Yeah, you'd start seeing it mid November.
- 51:43Speaker 4: That's when you'd start saying so things like, uh, it's
- 51:48Speaker 4: little subtle hints like jars and mincemeat, you know, for
- 51:51Speaker 4: the mince pies, the currents, for the road, for the Yeah, okay,
- 51:55Speaker 4: because these are all things you could be prepping.
- 51:58Speaker 2: They were on your they were nearly on your side.
- 52:00Speaker 4: You can make the Christmas cake now, you can make
- 52:02Speaker 4: the Christmas cake in something in summer with enough liquor
- 52:05Speaker 4: in it. The thing it lasts out last and apocalypse.
- 52:08Speaker 4: So there seems to be things like that she was saying.
- 52:10Speaker 2: But so five to six weeks sounds about right, yeah,
- 52:13Speaker 2: because you've just gotten over. I mean for what Halloween
- 52:16Speaker 2: was when we were children. I mean, here, here's the
- 52:18Speaker 2: thing I'm gonna say time, okay, and before we're going
- 52:20Speaker 2: for the tom You know me, the listeners know me.
- 52:22Speaker 2: I fucking love Christmas. He loves Halloween as well. Anything
- 52:26Speaker 2: from September on, I swear to God, I'm the happiest
- 52:28Speaker 2: kid alive. Okay, September into the first of January. I
- 52:32Speaker 2: got a smile on my face. Okay, he likes jackets, Like,
- 52:36Speaker 2: don't take it. And I appreciate that. If I do
- 52:39Speaker 2: love Halloween and I do love Christmas and I want
- 52:42Speaker 2: to fill the house with nice things for that, you
- 52:44Speaker 2: gotta buy them somewhere. Shops got to get them in.
- 52:47Speaker 2: I get it. I'm not wrong, okay, but it just
- 52:51Speaker 2: seems to me that everybody's so eager to get to
- 52:55Speaker 2: Christmas because that's where all the money is, that they
- 52:59Speaker 2: find themselves blown straight class Halloween. Like it seems to
- 53:01Speaker 2: me like shops just can't fucking wait to get Halloween
- 53:04Speaker 2: out of the way. Like, God damn, can you move
- 53:06Speaker 2: this low profit Halloween ship out of my shop so
- 53:09Speaker 2: I can fill it with the good stuff, with the
- 53:12Speaker 2: Christmas that I can really really make some money.
- 53:15Speaker 4: You made a really valid point there, because Eastern Sympatrick's
- 53:19Speaker 4: Day and Halloween really pale in comparison to how much
- 53:26Speaker 4: shit show.
- 53:28Speaker 2: It is, the Big Show. But like you need to I.
- 53:31Speaker 4: Mean, I think they're missing a trick, chure, I think
- 53:34Speaker 4: they're missing a trick. So Halloween is Irish, as we've
- 53:38Speaker 4: talked about. Again, we've done quite a bit on this
- 53:40Speaker 4: movie set of stuff. Need previous episodes, go.
- 53:43Speaker 2: Back and have a gander.
- 53:44Speaker 4: And the Halloween, of course, being Irish, was you know,
- 53:50Speaker 4: much like Valentine's Day, absolutely ramped up by the Americans
- 53:53Speaker 4: and turned into a thing. Because there are there there
- 53:56Speaker 4: are various different versions, but there's a celebration of of
- 54:01Speaker 4: of Druid and from pagan times and all that, all
- 54:05Speaker 4: that kind of stuff. But that's October, and whence they
- 54:09Speaker 4: are the one prior like Easter? Are we talking Easters
- 54:12Speaker 4: the earliest month.
- 54:13Speaker 2: Yeah, you go all the way back to Easter.
- 54:15Speaker 4: So I'm thinking they're like, should we maybe look at
- 54:19Speaker 4: the Scandinavians where they have meat sama, you know, where
- 54:21Speaker 4: they celebrate the longest time of the year, whatever the
- 54:24Speaker 4: hell it is, Like, I mean, I'm willing to put
- 54:26Speaker 4: up a may poland buy some you know, a straw
- 54:28Speaker 4: hat or whatever, like if we if we want to
- 54:31Speaker 4: put in an extra celebration in the middle of it.
- 54:33Speaker 2: I know they tried that ship with Arthur's Day and stuff,
- 54:35Speaker 2: but that.
- 54:35Speaker 4: Just turned so messy because you know, we all saw
- 54:39Speaker 4: what they were doing there. But and they left no
- 54:41Speaker 4: opportunity really for retailers to sell it other than pubs
- 54:44Speaker 4: to flake out of ape pints.
- 54:46Speaker 2: But I reckon we could start looking at.
- 54:48Speaker 4: More harvest festivals and things like that, even make it
- 54:51Speaker 4: a national thing, because let's be honest, most for you know,
- 54:55Speaker 4: quite and we're quite an agricultural country, whether you know,
- 54:59Speaker 4: urban people are not.
- 54:59Speaker 2: One want to believe in it.
- 55:02Speaker 4: I think we should have a big fat harvesty style
- 55:05Speaker 4: festival team throughout the country. I got no problem with
- 55:08Speaker 4: that in the middle of the summer, I got no
- 55:10Speaker 4: I got no problem with that in the world.
- 55:12Speaker 2: Then it would soften the blow over.
- 55:14Speaker 4: They're like, hey, we just cranked out you know, we're
- 55:15Speaker 4: selling a load of straw hats, we're selling dunglerees. Whatever
- 55:18Speaker 4: you make, whatever you make the thing to be, put
- 55:23Speaker 4: it in the middle of the summer, and then low behold,
- 55:25Speaker 4: if you invented another holiday, you know what I mean,
- 55:29Speaker 4: start selling.
- 55:30Speaker 2: Do you believe they I do believe they actually cover
- 55:31Speaker 2: that in some in some way shape maker form in
- 55:34Speaker 2: the Simpsons, like they made up Lovedy or something like that.
- 55:36Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah it kind of crack. So
- 55:38Speaker 2: let's let's let's take what we have time, Okay, Like
- 55:40Speaker 2: I think it's a matter of time, and okay, it's
- 55:43Speaker 2: it's not being greedy, right yeah. Now, first of September
- 55:47Speaker 2: the kids go back to school or the kids will
- 55:49Speaker 2: be back at school. So that's done and dusted. You
- 55:52Speaker 2: have two things, Okay, America is Thanksgiving. They've got three
- 55:55Speaker 2: to worry about. Maya God go with just lads, this
- 55:58Speaker 2: is Ireland. We're talking about enter the universe. Right, You've
- 56:02Speaker 2: got Halloween, Cob the thirty fourth, that's handy, and then
- 56:04Speaker 2: you've Christmas December twenty fifth, all right. September two October
- 56:10Speaker 2: is two months, tom that's two months that should just
- 56:12Speaker 2: be Halloween, and even two full months of it is
- 56:15Speaker 2: pushing it, right.
- 56:16Speaker 4: Yeah, even I was taken aback when I saw were
- 56:19Speaker 4: wolves in whatever shop we're.
- 56:23Speaker 2: Wanting and squealers and bottle rockets out here to be
- 56:25Speaker 2: at the band and the tecond of September alright, so
- 56:30Speaker 2: that's two months that that should be perfectly acceptable to anybody.
- 56:34Speaker 2: And then once the thirty first of October goes, November
- 56:37Speaker 2: the fourth hits and then you have two months until Christmas.
- 56:39Speaker 2: And now that seems fair to me. That seems equitable, right,
- 56:42Speaker 2: I dare say that's that's nearly twice the lead up
- 56:46Speaker 2: that we would have had when we were small, and
- 56:48Speaker 2: nobody should be unhappy about that. But it really just
- 56:51Speaker 2: seems that they're like, God, damn it, no Christmas deserves
- 56:54Speaker 2: three months of a run up, and then Halloween's just
- 56:57Speaker 2: kind of mixed in the middle of it there, and
- 56:59Speaker 2: it's kind of crossing the streams a little bit, and
- 57:02Speaker 2: you have like your Christmas stuff and your Halloween stuff
- 57:04Speaker 2: from the shop at the same time. You know, you've
- 57:06Speaker 2: got pumpkins and tens of roses. Been messy, Ben messy
- 57:10Speaker 2: for me, Tom, I.
- 57:11Speaker 4: Guy Quiz actually Quiz the guy that was stack in
- 57:13Speaker 4: the shelf and I went for Christmas already. He went, yeah,
- 57:18Speaker 4: but he's you know, and he was talking about loads
- 57:21Speaker 4: and those you know, Quality Street and all the sweeties.
- 57:24Speaker 2: But they're all in tubs now.
- 57:25Speaker 4: Everything from the drumstick swishies today and they're all in
- 57:28Speaker 4: tubs and he's stacking this and he goes, well, yeah,
- 57:30Speaker 4: but trigger treaters and stuff.
- 57:32Speaker 2: Okay, a fair enough for bollocks, it's for Christmas. He
- 57:35Speaker 2: was treators a handful of roses. Now, come on.
- 57:37Speaker 4: He was giving me the kind of a this is
- 57:40Speaker 4: the corporate line, and I'm going to be spilt. He like,
- 57:42Speaker 4: you know what I mean, because he knew full well
- 57:44Speaker 4: madness absolute.
- 57:46Speaker 2: In the family.
- 57:47Speaker 4: Which and to be fair, this was in uh you know,
- 57:51Speaker 4: it was either Eldier Little which who I like they
- 57:54Speaker 4: operate typically they operate a fucking week out, and I
- 57:57Speaker 4: like the way they operate, like two weeks out, three
- 57:59Speaker 4: weeks out. That's the way they operate because they're turning
- 58:02Speaker 4: over stuff, and their whole middle aisle is turning over
- 58:05Speaker 4: so quickly. It's a new shop every every second week.
- 58:08Speaker 2: You walk in there.
- 58:09Speaker 4: So even he was kind of gone, this is weird
- 58:11Speaker 4: for us to be getting this ship up already, Like
- 58:14Speaker 4: this is odd for us because we have like the
- 58:17Speaker 4: world of of storage. We don't need to be doing
- 58:20Speaker 4: this ship like we could bring rock this up the
- 58:22Speaker 4: Thurst do for what to call it? Sell it at
- 58:25Speaker 4: a good price and have it all gone, loaded them
- 58:28Speaker 4: with whatever's coming next.
- 58:30Speaker 2: Because you know, I'm no market here and like that.
- 58:33Speaker 2: But something tells me, like Tom, the money you're going
- 58:36Speaker 2: to spend on Christmas isn't going to magically double just
- 58:39Speaker 2: because the lead up to it doubles.
- 58:41Speaker 4: They must there must be a thing like where there's yeah,
- 58:43Speaker 4: that's exactly. You only got a certain amount of money.
- 58:45Speaker 4: But I think they just want to steal one and
- 58:47Speaker 4: leslie every fucking given day. But I wonder, are they
- 58:52Speaker 4: just going, you know what, even we got it in
- 58:53Speaker 4: an extra tenor off everybody, an extra tenor off everybody.
- 58:57Speaker 4: Half the ship, half the ship they're gonna buy will
- 59:00Speaker 4: break or get lost between now an actual Christmas, and
- 59:04Speaker 4: they'll probably replace it anyway.
- 59:05Speaker 2: So let's sell them tenseil in September, let's sell Christmasses
- 59:10Speaker 2: and they'll say to themselves, I'm going to put that
- 59:12Speaker 2: ten of roses away for Christmas.
- 59:13Speaker 4: And that's gone seventh night, when yeah, exactly, that's you
- 59:18Speaker 4: know what I mean. All they're looking for is that
- 59:19Speaker 4: extra tenor because they had that ship is you know yourself, Jerry,
- 59:22Speaker 4: if you eat a fresh bit of chocolate that has

- 1:03:21Speaker 4: I honestly, I'm looking at some of the ship shows
- 1:03:24Speaker 4: that are going on right now, and I think we'd

- 1:03:29Speaker 2: What can we say? Okay, so are we out of pocket?
- 1:03:31Speaker 2: Is Christmas starting right at the very right time, or

- 1:03:47Speaker 2: started in September and we just don't remember. But something
- 1:03:49Speaker 2: tells me I remember writing letters to Anty two weeks
- 1:03:52Speaker 2: out from Christmas, and that was seemed to be early

- 1:04:08Speaker 2: it was all you can't eat. Let's have a listen
- 1:04:10Speaker 2: to that. Maybe it was an unenviable establishment that struck
- 1:04:16Speaker 2: you down. Where are you going to do all of

- 1:05:18Speaker 4: are most outspoken in avert of commas. Politicians often have
- 1:05:22Speaker 4: their fears in public view, like Bob Catter and Tony
- 1:05:26Speaker 4: Abbott's gay siblings.
- 1:05:28Speaker 2: Interesting.
- 1:05:29Speaker 4: Keep the call up to Fred's traction engine. It's great
- 1:05:32Speaker 4: to hear him in good health, good health, dear good stuff.
- 1:05:37Speaker 4: I didn't know that, Bob, you know what that you
- 1:05:39Speaker 4: could see? Yeah, that's often the case when somebody is
- 1:05:42Speaker 4: so you know, whether it's vehemently against any sort of thing.
- 1:05:47Speaker 4: It's normally as a result of not being comfortable with
- 1:05:49Speaker 4: their own, their own sofa, their own their own ranch.
- 1:05:55Speaker 4: So yeah, that makes perfect sense. Bob probably probably eats
- 1:05:59Speaker 4: ice cream.
