• 1:27
  Speaker 3: been electrified. It's like Canon Hayes brought electric electrification to
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: the to the rural society. So we finally got the garage,
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: got a couple of strip lights up, a couple of
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: sockets in, and I did the Great on veil, the
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: shout out to brilliant electricians. So we're inning out in
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: half a day. It was a lovely clean job. It's beautiful.
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: No like you could attempt it yourself. But it's like
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: it's one thing I'll rarely go go at as electrics.
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: I won't go near gas or electrics and everything else
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: is probably yeah, you could bash into it. But the boys,
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: the head away and I the Great on Veil. The
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: two came out and I was like, look at my lights.
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: This is I have lights. And the wife looked up
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: and she said one thing er, one thing and one
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: thing old Jesus between them now and Jerry, because then
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: I'll never actually say in the evenings, and I want to,
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: I want to say Jerry. She didn't say that with
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: any said that's whatsoever in her voice.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: No, she was just like, oh great, yeah, on the occasion,
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: I think this isn't the take my Wife podcast.
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: No, it's not spec imagination. But you know, I don't
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: think they miss us greatly when we do these little
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: it's they don't miss us one bit. They might miss
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: what responsibilities we can take on her take from them
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: or whatever jobs. But let's be honest. No couple should
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: be under each other's feet. Do you know what I mean?
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: I can't. They shouldn't be. It's it's not healthy. I
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: don't think like to be you know what I mean.
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: It's like eating You know I can eat an ice
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: cream every day of the week. Well, no, that doesn't
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: you know the type of us Tom and the listeners
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: know the type of that anytime you see us out
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: on the street, people that say themselves to day off
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: for somebody. Yeah yeah, yeah, look at the face of
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: th under and blocks walking down the way. And I know,
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: I know I'm hard work. So I think, if anything,
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: the lights were more beneficial to the wife than me,
• 3:13

• 3:14

  Speaker 3: Folks.
• 4:29

  Speaker 2: We always like to kick it off with a recap
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: of the weekly what have you.
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: This is a very complicated case, mad you know, a
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: lot of ian's, a lot of outs, a lot of
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: what have you, and uh, a lot of scrans to
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: keep in my head, man, I wanted a way till
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: it finished, and it has wrapped up at this age
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: because there was no point in well you could have
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: kind of had the middle ways and all the rest
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: of it.
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: A lot of a lot of a lot of the
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: times tom with with with the weekly what have you.
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: If it's very fresh, we don't like to comment on
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: it because there's a two day delay on air podcast
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: coming out. Sometimes it's just hard to know which way
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: these things are gonna go.
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: Well, this is it, you see, and you want to
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: see how it all happens out in the dust settlers
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: and all the rest of it, because everybody will try
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: and pull the trigger and have What you want to
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: do is stand back and let the dog see the
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: rabbit as the man said. And in this particular case,
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: it is, of course the Saudi Arabia Comedy Festival, which
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: are forwards. I'm guessing you this time last year you
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: didn't look and see going together because it's yes, indeed,
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: and it has passed home. It has lapsed. It is
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: a it is an ex festival. It has ceased to be.
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: Last weekend finished finished up just over the weekend.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: So over the weekend there so fairly, and I I
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: kind of didn't want to do this last week just in.
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: Case some shit kicked off, Yeah, because that would have
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: been guess, wouldn't it.
• 5:46
  Speaker 5: You just don't ever know, you know, So the world
• 5:50
  Speaker 5: some of the world's biggest names like Jesus, Dave Chappelle, Billboard,
• 5:54
  Speaker 5: Jimmy Carr, fucking Lucy K Whitney Cummings is there, Kevin Hart,
• 6:01
  Speaker 5: Ahmed the Jelli was there, Jim Jefferies, you name him.
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: And they, I mean there was. I would wager that
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: there was into the billions spent on the fees for
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: this thing to bring people over. It's it's it's it's
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: curious to me, Tom, because like Saudi Arabia has a
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: rich history of comedy. Yeah, yeah, yeah, a rich history
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: you fucking find funny, but.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: A troubled history with human rights and the such like.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: So when you kick off like a comedy festival at it,
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: you would imagine, yes, you will get a lineup with
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: that that will have any number of comedians that will
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: turn an eye to such things. But there would be
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: a number of people that you would say, well, either
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: they don't need the money or they would know that
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: this is not a quote unquote good look on them.
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: For example, Jimmy Carr.
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: Absolutely, I'd say he would have done twice the time
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: for half the money. Like he's just, in my eyes,
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: just a hungry god.
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah he is. I mean he went he literally went
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: from working for the oil companies to doing comedy. So
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: it's a full circle.
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: You have Louis c k who has his star has
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: fallen greatly and with good cause over the last couple
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: of years, and I'd say, well, okay, yeah he'll go,
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: And then you'll get all these other right wing comedians
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: that will go and do comedy festival in Saudi Arabia
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: to stick it to the Libs.
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: And then you have Kevin Hart. I don't know it's
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: hurting for money, but you either it's the same with
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: Dave Chappelle or Bill Burr is quite left leaning in
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: recent times, you know what I mean, you're kind of
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: Chappelle's not.
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: How is it that they'll say about him in the
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: paper he's not allergic to controversy.
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: He's not. He doesn't give an he doesn't. But at
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: the same time, I don't think it's even a left
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: or right leaning thing on this this particular, because you
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: got it like to what end are like, especially if
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: your style accomt. I think it comes down boys down
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: to each comedian, Like if you're Bobby Lee, You're great,
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: You're absolutely grand. Like I'm at the Jelly an interesting
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: one comes from Iran Iranian heritage. But as you said,
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: like Kevin Hart was at it, you're kind of gone.
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: But Jim, you get Jim Jefferies and Bill Burr and
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: you start to go, what the hell black mirror universe
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: are we living? Yeah, because both of those sleds would
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: be they'd be both like, you know, critic their whole
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: thing would be critiquing the norm, like point the establishment,
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: the establishment exactly, Yeah, and I mean the world and
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: the mother in the way comedians have come out and
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: bashed them for you know, and I'm not here like
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: there was billions spent on this. I'm telling you now,
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: you didn't get Kevin. You didn't get Kevin Hart out
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: there for you know, a door split, a door split,
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: or you know, a night in the apartment, and you know,
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: you get him a burger afterwards. You're spending tens of
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: millions because while I guess when I would imagine, I
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: would imagine when each when they landed Chappelle, it was
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: almost like did you ever see that that documentary on
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: We Are the World where Michael Jackson did it? He
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: brought in after the Grammy's the only way to get
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: them all together in the one town. Like the likes
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: of all of these artists. It was immediately after the
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: Grammys to work through the night Lionel Richid Hoola and
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: nobody was on board with Richie when he came up
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: and I have for Fox it enough to be doing
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: until Bruce Springsteen said, I'll do it on straight off
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: tour and I'll come straight there and do it, and
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: then everybody went, well if you if the boss is done,
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: and I think that Chappelle. Once Chappelle's name was mentioned,
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: they were all like I'll do it so as well.
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: You know what I mean, It's not it's not improbable town.
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: But at the same time, a lot of these names
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: that are on this on this bill are like lifers,
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean, Like Jimmy Carriss there for
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: twenty years. Yeah, Billboards a twenty year veteran, Luis K's
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: twenty year veteran, Like I don't know that the got
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: any stars in the rise, Like oh wow, I've never
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: been on a bill with Dave Chappelle.
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: No, put it on. I think the payday is for
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: me is I mean, it's okay, let's talk about that,
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: all right, Like like once they once they turn around
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: and the Saudi's come over and go, we will give
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: you upwards of five six, seven, eight, whatever it is
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: million with an M. Yeah, all of a sudden, I
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: would imagine your morals will be questioned straight away, I said,
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: but it is okay, It is okay.
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: Still after the fact that to turn around and go, like, Billboard,
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: did you not know how this is going to look?
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: You see, I want your lads, but you don't. Yeah,
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: bill Me, I mean the way the way he and
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: Jefferies I listened to them both the way they reasoned
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: what it was, Well, look at the plan is for
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: this crowd to move on with their backward ways. And
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: if anything is going to you know, if anything's going
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: to do it, the merchants of free speech are going
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: to do it. Like now they that being said, this
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: wasn't they weren't playing to you know, the sort of
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: people that you know, let's be honest, blue colors, blue
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: color Saudis aren't going.
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: These wearing These weren't smokey beatni clubs. No, this isn't
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: speaking true to power like Lenny.
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: Bruce over here. Now, No, I mean that's that's playing
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: what I can only imagine is a very curated set. Well,
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: apparently they weren't too bad. The two things they could
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: stay away from the royal family and politics. You're like,
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: what that was? Literally, I mean you can have you
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: can have a go with the fucking sand all you want. Like,
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: I mean, I would who's dry out of everybody's I
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: would have wanted to see like whatever about I would
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: want to see Whitney Commings because Whitney Cummings is brilliantly foul,
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: Like you know, I mean her last special, you know,
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: she talked about catching the sight of her ol Man
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: stick and it was huge. Do you know what I mean,
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: like like you're God subscribe some many like well, it's
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: it's it. I get. I do. I'm not playing Devil's advocate.
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: I do kind of get. There's almost like I wonder
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: when you get to say as rich as Kevin Hart, right,
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: hey after you, a hundred million makes no ads to
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: you at the end of the day, A hundred million
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: or a billion, like it makes no.
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: Wads literally, like it's like what white stack of money
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: you can't even counter?
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, this is the thing. So I'm just wondering at
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: that point, you're kind of going, lads, we all go together?
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: When do we all get together in the festival? And
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: this was going to be fucking weird. Let's let's just
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: out of nearly the obscurity of it, literally a kind
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: of dirty voyeurism of seeing what's behind because you know
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: you're going to get the ultimate in I suppose luxury
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: laid on fire and stuff like that. Yeah, but you're
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: not going to tell you what You're not gonna have.
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: Thomas a big piss up with the lads in Saudi Arabia.
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: Apparently there was Apparently they gave because they free here's it,
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: here's the thing. And it only broke last a couple
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: of months ago, as Christian and Ronaldo was playing over
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: there for a million and fucking quite a minute or something,
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: as he lives right and you're not by law over there,
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: you weren't allowed to live with a woman if you
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: weren't married to her, and they made a clause for
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: Christiano Ronaldo. They found something in the appendix of the Yeah, yeah,
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: so they went they went through it, and I'm at
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: that point they're kind of going, okay, right, right, Like
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: there was a couple of names like Andrew Schultz. Not surprise,
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: he plays a guitar. Guitar, you know what I mean.
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: And you know he's irreverend anyway towards that scenario, and
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: he'll he'll he'll, he will grant, he'll bounce. He's ignorant
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: enough anyway, he'll bounce, no problem. The the one that
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: surprised me out of everybody, Jim. You're talking about Northern
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: Irish comedian Jimo On brilliant Northern Irish comedian Jim. Now,
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: I hold nothing out of that entire line of I
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: hold nothing against Jim Oon because Jim o AND's goofy
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: fucking material would do well on the moon. Nobody's getting
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: insulted with it. Now he will, I wonder did he
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: because he's a cheeky hore. But also Jim Jim's I mean,
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: Jim is a successful comedian, but Jim's bank bands doesn't
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: look like Jim Jeffries, you know what I mean. So
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: if Jim is getting offered a little two and a
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: half minute to go over there, I you know, refusing, Tommy,
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: he's clear and everybody's mortgage off the back of it,
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: like so you know, there's that.
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: It's well, it's it's worth taking a look here now, Okay. So,
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: because like I said, the Saudi Arabian government is welcome
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: to throw all the comedy festivus they want. And I
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: gotta tell you, if the Irish government want to throw one,
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: throw some sheckles our way, like you know, we'll have
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: that conversation. Governments should have a comedy festival, but they
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: fucking don't, tom because you know why, most governments don't
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: try to whitewash sports wash, comedy wash. They're nefarious history
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: and human rights abuses and ongoing human rights abuses to
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: this day. They want everybody to look at them around
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: the world and go like, Saudi Arabia, wonderful place to live.
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: They've got comedy festivals and golf tournaments as well, Tom, oh,
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: and they've got like football, and they've got all this
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: kind of thing. And basically it is just like the
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: royal family throwing money at things. And here's where it
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: comes around to me. Yeah, as I tend to do
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: with these things as well. They have been doing this
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: for the past number of years with the World Wrestling Federation.
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: Ww they have right, yes, indeed, they've been running massive,
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: massive events in read and there's another big city over
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: there that escapes me.
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: Right at this very second, little run one two shows
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: a year, and an actual fact, not next year, but
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: the year after WrestleMania itself stop, the flagship show is
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: being held in Saudi Arabia across two nights. Because you know,
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: they put on a huge show. People look at it
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: and go like, wow, Saudi Arabia, there's sixty thousand people
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: in the stadium. Surely this place can't be so bad.
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: And then you look at it a little bit closer, Tom,
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: and you notice that the female wrestlers in the ring
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: are wearing what can only be described as scuba outfits
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: because they're not allowed.
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: I swear to God. Okay, I swear to Google. I
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: have to google this. They make them go in like
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: full body trons suits because they're not allowed. You know that,
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: the female wrestlers, and we love them for it.
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: They will go out in their female wrestling ear and
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: it's very about all I can say as a married man, Thomas,
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: it's very empowering for them to dress away they dress.
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: How about that? Oh, for Fox, they haven't been t
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: shirts and trousers. It's not even t shirts and trousers.
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: It's it's like the it's like jumpsuits. It's like it's
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: like full body jumps yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, nothing
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: for Fox's sake. Right. The whole thing about wrestling and
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: that what women will all the women wrestlers will always
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: have over the men is this like some of the
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: men have spanky outfits, but no spanky outfits will out
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: spangle a woman's spankly outfit in wrestling, you know what
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: I mean. Like they can do cool things and look
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: look on but when you put on, as you said,
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: a fucking white suit, like it's it's what it is.
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: It's what it is. It's like you're it's like you're it's.
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: Like you're dressed like Jack Custo going out there, you know,
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: so like you know, but do I do I chose Tom?
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: Do I tune in watch the shows? Of course, you know,
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: because that's and that's how they get you. It's like
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: put on a big enough show, put on a big
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: enough spectacle, drawing off ighs, and they've got money to burn, Tom,
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: They've got.
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: All the money, all the money like they when they can.
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: Anybody wants to go and watch the the Kahogi or
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: or documentary, it'll kind of give you an insight into
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: absolutely moving without any repercussions whatsoever. When you owe, when
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: you own so much in the world, you know, it
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: could could it could have come to a point too
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: jar when you own so much like they do, it
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: could have come to a point where it's like, oh, no,
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: you're doing the festival. We want you know, I'm not, No,
• 18:07
  Speaker 3: you fucking are You're do you know what I mean?
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: Does I think if you look at this view from

  Speaker 2: your ring camera that you've never seen before, you're doing
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: the festival?

• 21:27
  Speaker 2: couple of people that don't have mortgages because they are
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: boarding with the warden. Uh and they sprung to our
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: attention this week. So we better talk about these lads
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: in this week's episode segment Bitch.
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: Chapter of this lad. Now, there's that guy. You stayed up.
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: That was a hopscotch moment there, you stayed up, fair play,
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: You got over the line. There you go. That's that's
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: that's that's like, you know, a drunk walk and you're
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: about to fall, You're about to fall in you're right
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: yourself and then you So this this was this would
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: be a million miles from the occurd, not a million miles,
• 22:02
  Speaker 3: but it is. By the way, we're back on June, lads,
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: the politics side of things have gone. We are back
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: on brand with our sort of stuff here. Yeah yeah,
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: and even close close to Jerry's home. Not quite in
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: your county, but close to Jerry's home. An embarrassing moment
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: where prison officers crash a jet ski during a prank
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: gone wrong at lockinghouse. Like, I mean, okay, so here
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: we go. That is Florida Man level of shit right there.
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: That is like every little.
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: Bit of that statement that that we both came up.
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: We both came upon that independently over the weekend, and
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: we both sort of text each other at the same
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: time to say, I think we found this week days.
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: Lad.
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: It was like the bit in a romantic comedy movie
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: where like, you know, we both reached for the same
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: melon at the same time, and the supermarkets on our
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: hands touching, our eyes meet and it's like, oh wow,
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: I love it.
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: For sight, Like we both saw the your car broke
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: down in my town and I'm the local mechanic exactly.
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: We both saw this story and we're like, Okay, now
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: we gotta fucking take a little look at this Latnan
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: house is a prison in County Tavern. News to me, Tom,
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: But I knew we had to have prison somewhere all
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: right now. I was not familiar with this particular prison
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: because it's not the long Cashes of the world. It's
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: not the Mountain Joys, it's not even the arbor Hills.
• 23:16
  Speaker 4: It is.
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: It's kind of like a I want to say, like
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: a wishy washy Conde Gode kind of open prison.
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: I think I think that's what. It's one of them
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: ones where lads probably white collar crime sort of stuff.
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: You know what. I'm not gonna jump to as persons
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: as to what these lads did in the prison. But
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: like it, things seem to be fairly handed, you know
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: what I mean. It's it's a free digs. It's what
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: it sounds like to me on the taxpayers dollar. So
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: it's in County Cavern, of all places, it's it's it's
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: in County Cavern.
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: And and again like even looking at it a little
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: bit on on Google, it's it's it's you're right, it
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: is kind of wishy washy, uh, you know why, you know,
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: white collar, but then again maybe not white call a crime.
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: I mean, it has down three notable inmates on its
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: Wikipedia page, one of which is Luke ming Flanagan, who
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: we know, another guy called Andy the Bull McSharry who
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: was a gate that got into a bunch of land
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: disputes and wouldn't that people walk on his land? And
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: Thomas Slab Murphy.
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: From up that direction.
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: So yeah, one of these things is not like the
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: other here Tom. But regardless of which, we're not gonna
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: say that, it's like, you know, full of people of
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: hardened criminals that are going to like bust out and
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: cause me it's an open present. And if that wasn't
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: enough to tell you that it was an open present.
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: The fact that it is jet ski adjacent. Here's the thing,
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: why clue you in form?
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: My time in Cavin, I was amazed, you know, a
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: way like in Canada you assume every kid has like
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: snowshoes or ice skates. Right there are that many fucking lakes,
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: locks and fucking giant puddles in Cavan that I'm amazed
• 24:56
  Speaker 3: every single family doesn't have like the family jet ski.
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: Do you know what I mean? Like, like you know,
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: every lot of a lot of boats, A lot of
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: families have like you know, a pair of crutches under
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: the stairs from when somebody in the family broke their lake.
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: I'm guessing every family in Cavan has like a jet
• 25:15
  Speaker 3: ski under the stairs where somebody needed to go across
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: the lake. Like it's ludicrous how many lakes are there.
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: So I'm not a bit surprised Cavin is like ninety
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: you know, sobaqua, yeah, yeah, it's the it's yeah.
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: Now I talked to I was talking to up the
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: way the other day. I want to say what I said.
• 25:40
  Speaker 3: And oh, just bastard, he was, Oh he bowed the
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: whole of me.
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: So so so okay, there is a there is a
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: prison in County Cavan.
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: And it's adjacent to a lake.
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: And upon this lake a pair of prison officers who
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: have yet to be named in public court just yet.
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: We're jet skin. So this is the kind of thing
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: like lad's under under lunch. Yeah, they clocked out and
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: they're like, lads, will we tip home with the sandwiches
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: and be like, you know what, we'll just jump on
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: the on the jet ski. And this is like relatively
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: recent time, and I don't remember any beautiful sunny days
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: that would lend themselves to jet skin. I guess maybe
• 26:22
  Speaker 3: they borrowd some of those outfits from the wrestlers and
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: read you know.
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: You know, the lady wrestlers. Sorry, they're real reply, can
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: I borrow your fucking wets it? And I'll roll up
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: the bottom and roll up the sleeves of it and
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: roll up the bottom of it so it'll fit me.
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: And here's these two prison of officers cutting around on
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: jet skis on the lake. And at this point you're like, Okay,
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: I guess I mean, it's taken me a while to
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: get here. We've got a prison on the lake. The
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: prison officers on occasion I guess go jet skiing? All right, Okay,
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: Like it's it's it's like it's like a Chinese whispers
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: of a story. It's like a yes and in improv
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: you know.
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah yeah. Now I've never been in a
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: jet ski, Tom, but if I ever was, I can
• 27:07
  Speaker 3: guarantee the first thing I do, once I had a
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: handle of it, once I knew what I was doing,
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: what I would try to do is I would try
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: to drench somebody I knew on the shore from my laugh. Yeah,
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: like day one of jet skiing. Find your balance. This
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: is throttle. This is is there a break on them?
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: Can you break a jet ski? This is trottle. This
• 27:29
  Speaker 3: is stop throttling. That's it.
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: And after that it's like I'm just going to like
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: create waves and splash people on the bank. And the
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: two prison officers did just exactly that.
• 27:39
  Speaker 3: So again the next part of this story, yes, and
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: is that there were prisoners on the river bank. Yeah,
• 27:48
  Speaker 3: what were these men doing? Were they washing clothes? Where
• 27:51
  Speaker 3: they're searching for muscles? Like what are we? What are
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: they doing here? Fishing? I can only imagine, like can
• 27:57
  Speaker 3: you imagine, like they're well behaved lads, you know what
• 28:00
  Speaker 3: I mean, they're okay, there's the odd ira f in
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: there and.
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: Stuff like that, but these are these are like you know,
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: low level quiet.
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: You're quiet, yeah, yeah, you know. So you can imagine
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: the lads. I like to think that they're all out
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: there doing taichi. Yeah, and it's going on. It's going
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: so well somewhere all the Namastasia like they're giving it.
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: They're like, man, you really need to change your life around.
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: And like all the prisoners are so well balanced. And
• 28:31
  Speaker 3: you look out, you look out to the lake and
• 28:34
  Speaker 3: there's two fucking Kenny powers is on the back motherfuckers
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: like tits as they drive by, like just your prisoners
• 28:44
  Speaker 3: are just kind of looking at over the water because
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: it is that Like is that two screws on jet
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: skis coming us? It's like, yes, it is. It's like
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: the officers bozz the tower as as as you know
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: the new top gun.
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: They buzz the tower. And this is what I would do, Tom,
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: I would be in my exuberance to splash these prisoners
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: for a laugh.
• 29:07
  Speaker 4: Ah.
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: They crashed the kid and it's not like one of
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: them crashed. The two of them crashed. Yeah, the two
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: of them crashed. I mean there's like we've all seen
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: the longest yard, you know what I mean. Like at
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: some point you've heard I know a prison officer and
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: he was like, look, the only way to really get
• 29:30
  Speaker 3: through the day is to actually drink these guys with respect,
• 29:32
  Speaker 3: these and then they give it back to you. That's
• 29:35
  Speaker 3: all the best I can do, you know what I mean.
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: But not every prison officer is going to be like that,
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean. Can you imagine the joy
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: because most of these prisoners, it would seem, are common
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: to the end. They behave themselves in whatever other prison
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: they were in, and they seem to coming to the
• 29:49
  Speaker 3: end school finishing school. Now, so you're you've you've kept
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: your fucking powder dry. But the joy. And I'm not
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: I'm not exalting or getting on the side of prisoners
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: here like both, Oh I'm one side in this particular
• 30:05
  Speaker 3: but in this particular side like those guys and a
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: lot of equations, but in this instance, yeah, you gotta
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: love it. It's like seeing you know, like it's like
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: senior teacher out of school, like fucking tripping or something,
• 30:17
  Speaker 3: you know, fallen face forced into a kid. But to
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: see it like you can only imagine like when they
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: do fuck up, but they fuck up on two jet skis.
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: Acting a maggot next to you on the lake. You're like,
• 30:28
  Speaker 3: this will be fuel for a year for that, and
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: not not one, but both of them eat ship on
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: the lake.
• 30:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: I like to think like one came off and tumble
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: the wild cut into the water and the next guy
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: came in and plowed into that jet ski.
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: Details like that are not available to us, but we
• 30:45
  Speaker 3: have wonderful imaginations. Tone, Oh no doubt to be. What's
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: that video of fucking go do the round soon enough,
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: don't worry? Yeah, from the prisoner's phone that he just
• 30:53
  Speaker 3: has with him. He just has a phone, does whatever
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: he wants. It is spectacular. And I guess it's like
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: a it's not a good news story because you know,
• 31:04
  Speaker 3: you know, I still do think that there is a
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: lot to be said for, you know, a little bit
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: of punishment in jails. Not just build more jails and
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: throw more people in them.
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: But if you're in jail, you probably did something to
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: be put there.
• 31:18
  Speaker 3: And enjoying your time on a lake watching the people
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: were paying to watch you tom fool themselves into mishaps. Well,
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: it sticks in my crow. Ever, so slightly. Yeah, like
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: there was uproar there a couple of weeks ago how
• 31:33
  Speaker 3: they went about on another podcast, the Prison Service were
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: podcasters well known to you and I and everybody has
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: two sound lads were paid twenty five k to have
• 31:45
  Speaker 3: members of the Prison Service on their podcast and gotcha.
• 31:49
  Speaker 3: People were up in arms. They were like, well, that's
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: a ridiculous number. Like actually for the the reach that
• 31:55
  Speaker 3: they would get and anybody who knows half a thing
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: and I know less than half thing about marketing, that's
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: small beans for the reach that's that's nothing for their
• 32:04
  Speaker 3: reach that it hardly gets ten good billboards you know
• 32:06
  Speaker 3: what I mean, which would do nothing, which would do
• 32:09
  Speaker 3: which we do not know.
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: And again, like I say, REAC Comedy Festival, Irish Prison Service,
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: why are we getting passed over?
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: Thomas whatever?
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: This is the thing, Like, this is the I'll fucking
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: promote you twice as hard for half the money.
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: I've said it three times this podcast. How many times
• 32:24
  Speaker 3: do we actually do you know what? How many times
• 32:26
  Speaker 3: do we talk about various prisons around the world? Actually,
• 32:29
  Speaker 3: this is this is yeah, We're never out of prison.
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: This is what's a weird fantasy too? Us have that
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: we both end up finding we always are algorithms are aligned,
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: much like our periods. We would we seem to keep
• 32:41
  Speaker 3: on landing on prison stories whatever it is, And this one,
• 32:45
  Speaker 3: I mean, this is watery enough as prisoners go, because
• 32:51
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean, they're one hundred and forty.
• 32:53
  Speaker 3: They're probably wearing their own clothes at this stage. But
• 32:55
  Speaker 3: what the glory of it is is the two knobs
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: you fucking eat. Absolutely, Like how lax is the warden
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: to say that when warden looks out the window they
• 33:06
  Speaker 3: think it's okay for them to be up on jet skis?
• 33:08
  Speaker 3: Like how has nobody escaped the prison on a fucking
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: jet ski if they're readily available, Like if these lads
• 33:15
  Speaker 3: are wandering around doing shrubbery, fucking you know, it's it's okay.
• 33:19
  Speaker 3: Number one.
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: It doesn't strike me as the kind of prison where
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: anybody's getting fucking shanked in the showers with a sharpened toothbrush,
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean, Like its just stab fifteen
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: times in the neck and it's like, hey, anymore coney,
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: says a low son of a bitch, then they can
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: walk on a bit because it's like nobody's getting their
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: achilles ten and slashed in this prison, is what I'm
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: going to say. But at the same time, this is
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: such a fucking police academy sketch, Yeah, that it just
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: really leaps out into the mind, like this is literal
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: Keystone Cops.
• 33:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, like it would be. It would have been funny,
• 33:55
  Speaker 3: like it nearly would have made it into a TV
• 33:58
  Speaker 3: show or a movie if they were chasing a prisoner
• 34:01
  Speaker 3: and crashed into each other. But worse again, these two knobs,
• 34:06
  Speaker 3: like it'll be unbelievable on a movie written into the
• 34:09
  Speaker 3: script to go as we can't have we can't actually
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: have a messing out in the lake, Like.
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: Guys, it's just a little bit unbelievable. There's there's a
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: little bit too much of a narrow client to believe
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: that these prison officers jet ski.
• 34:21
  Speaker 3: On the lunch break. So you're telling me, guys in
• 34:22
  Speaker 3: the script, the warden's okay with there being jet skis,
• 34:25
  Speaker 3: you know, docked in an open prison. Yes, jet skis
• 34:30
  Speaker 3: being available to use at an open prison. Does anybody
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: see anything any holes in this this plot plot at all? No, no, no,
• 34:41
  Speaker 3: And the two people on it are not prisoners. No,
• 34:44
  Speaker 3: they're actually going to be prison officers that work there.
• 34:47
  Speaker 3: They're on their lunch break acting the maggot. Okay, let's
• 34:50
  Speaker 3: go back to the fucking dram board. That's this is rubbish.
• 34:53
  Speaker 3: Nobody believe this. Let's let's let's keep.
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: It in the realms of believability. But you know what
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell you, Tom, what is believable is if
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: you are in the Irish prison Service and you do
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: pull this kind of shenanigans and me and Tom hear
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: about it. We're absolutely gonna talk about it on our podcast.
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: You are going to be this lad this week. So
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: so congratulations.
• 35:12
  Speaker 3: I suppose hey, anybody thinking they joining the prison service
• 35:15
  Speaker 3: free of charge, I will tell you right now you
• 35:17
  Speaker 3: don't even have to pay us, as twenty five grand
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: fucking a couple of happy meals will do. Is fine.
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: This is how good it can be. Guys. You can
• 35:24
  Speaker 3: get to use jet skis. How many jobs do you
• 35:26
  Speaker 3: get to use jet skis on your lunch break? Not
• 35:29
  Speaker 3: even jet skis sales merchants get to ride the jet skis.
• 35:32
  Speaker 3: Now you're talking, so you know, just consider it on
• 35:36
  Speaker 3: your when your CEO form.
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: Lads just saying, well, there you go, Tom, and I
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: gotta tell you I mentioned them there, the Keystone Cops.
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: I find it very funny when we throw things into conversation,
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: like you know that our moments and and and well
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: known things, even if we don't know the actual thing itself.
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: For example, i'd throw out Keystone Cops there, I dare say,
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: I've never watched any Keystone Cops movies from the fucking twenties,
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: and I don't think you have either. Or but you
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: know what I mean by Keystone Cups. Yeah, and you
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: know what I mean by having a falling down moment,
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: or you know what I mean by he did a
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: reginal pairing. There are some things that just kind of
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: have baked into our consciousness down through the years, which
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: you agree.
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, But what was the one from Kingpin He's done
• 36:15
  Speaker 3: a do you remember it was? It was known to
• 36:18
  Speaker 3: happen if you did it, if you used his name,
• 36:21
  Speaker 3: a Munchkin or a Monken? What was it? Oh, yes,
• 36:23
  Speaker 3: this is I don't bowl, but I know what's talking about?
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah. So
• 36:28
  Speaker 3: So like I say, it's it's these are these are
• 36:30
  Speaker 3: things that me and Tom don't know. We've just learned
• 36:32
  Speaker 3: them down through years because we're all as fuck, That's
• 36:34
  Speaker 3: what it is. Sometimes these things seep into the public consciousness,
• 36:37
  Speaker 3: and every now and then we talk about them, like
• 36:39
  Speaker 3: we do in the last segment of the show, which
• 36:41
  Speaker 3: we call we Remember when when I was a young
• 36:45
  Speaker 3: lad twenty or thirty or forty years ago. It's not
• 36:48
  Speaker 3: far away now, they're not far away, and we'll probably
• 36:51
  Speaker 3: we'll probably be doing a bit i'd say, all the
• 36:53
  Speaker 3: way up into iha Hound because yeah.
• 36:56
  Speaker 4: And I'm looking at that, I'm looking at the I'm
• 36:57
  Speaker 4: looking at the skeedge here Tom, and it looks like
• 37:00
  Speaker 4: we Yeah, we've got a we've got a special Halloween
• 37:02
  Speaker 4: episode coming in a couple of weeks time. But in
• 37:04
  Speaker 4: the run up to Halloween, we thought we'd take a
• 37:06
  Speaker 4: look back.
• 37:09
  Speaker 3: And a witch and none of this album Harry Potter rubbish.
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: Like none, none of this, none of this sexy, wicking
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: kind of a thing like this is this is this
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: is not a this is not a lady selling scenten soap.
• 37:23
  Speaker 3: So we're here. We always said that.
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: We remember when it wouldn't just be like a nostalgia piece.
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: It would never just be hey remember mega drives, or
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: hey remember I don't know the first Gulf War, so
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: we always have tried to keep it at least, you know,
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: a little bit more than that. Not this week, Tom,
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: not this week with Halloween just around the corner. I
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: came to you and say, hey, Tom, do you remember
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: crock bikes?
• 37:47
  Speaker 3: Do you know? It was almost like a fever dream
• 37:49
  Speaker 3: when you think of these things like around the bend,
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: round the twist as well round the twist, you know,
• 37:57
  Speaker 3: doctor mister Megica, these things like did I did? Did
• 38:01
  Speaker 3: that happen? Because I've asked people in the past about
• 38:03
  Speaker 3: the lights of cross bags, going do you remember that?
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: I got no?
• 38:07
  Speaker 3: And maybe they're a month older or a month younger
• 38:10
  Speaker 3: than me. It just passed them by. It just it
• 38:13
  Speaker 3: just missed them by that much. Yeah. So but I do.
• 38:16
  Speaker 3: I do because and I've mentioned this before when we
• 38:18
  Speaker 3: talked about old stuff on BBC. My parents came back
• 38:21
  Speaker 3: from the UK and brought the aerial with them and
• 38:23
  Speaker 3: it was for all into its purposes. If you cut
• 38:25
  Speaker 3: the bottom out of a trolley and kind of bent
• 38:28
  Speaker 3: in the edges, that's all it was. But for whatever
• 38:31
  Speaker 3: reason in South Tiper area it was able to pick
• 38:33
  Speaker 3: up the fucking the English channels. It worked so we
• 38:37
  Speaker 3: got the that that that puts you as several notches
• 38:40
  Speaker 3: over what the rest of the country were getting. It's true.
• 38:42
  Speaker 3: So I was kind of rocking in going did you see?
• 38:44
  Speaker 3: And do you because I didn't understand that now some
• 38:47
  Speaker 3: people had this guy, one or two people had had
• 38:50
  Speaker 3: this guy in with a giant, big fucking dish and
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: they were streets ahead again, you know what I mean.
• 38:54
  Speaker 3: They were able to get the wrestling and record the
• 38:56
  Speaker 3: wrestling for us, you know, like, yeah, of course. But
• 39:00
  Speaker 3: I when you mentioned grot bags, it was like I
• 39:04
  Speaker 3: remember like holding buttercups like a whole old like there
• 39:09
  Speaker 3: was a lifetime of childhood memory, gratitude flashback, just like
• 39:14
  Speaker 3: I was holding butter cups under maid's chins, you're jumping
• 39:17
  Speaker 3: into rivers, you're eating hard heads, the whole lot, you
• 39:20
  Speaker 3: know what I mean, You're eating den bars and lo
• 39:24
  Speaker 3: and behold, grot bags came burning back into my brain.
• 39:27
  Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, yeah, that was that. That was a
• 39:30
  Speaker 3: woman that was green. Wasn't that? She was a green witch?
• 39:34
  Speaker 3: She's if I remember, she used to beat like there's
• 39:39
  Speaker 3: no way you're getting away with this, and kids, she
• 39:41
  Speaker 3: used to beat the fuck out of that crocodile that
• 39:44
  Speaker 3: was with her.
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: I gotta tell you it's it's it's it's one of
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: these things, Tom, Like you see yourself there. Now, you
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: might have missed this by six weeks and not know
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: what the funk were talking about, but if you were there,
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: you knew it. And just as I said in the
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: lead up to this, like you know, people know what
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: Keystone cop, they know what it is to have a
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: falling down moment or whatever it is.
• 40:03
  Speaker 3: There's a certain generation.
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: Yourself and myself are in it that if we describe
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: a woman as being a bit of a grock Bags,
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: we know exactly who we're talking about.
• 40:12
  Speaker 3: Croc Bags was witch. She was a witch that was
• 40:14
  Speaker 3: the primary antagonist on the Rod holl and Emu Show.
• 40:19
  Speaker 3: So we've talked about Roden Hull before on this podcast.
• 40:22
  Speaker 3: How it literally was a man with an EMU puppet
• 40:25
  Speaker 3: that would go around snatching people by the crotted artery
• 40:29
  Speaker 3: as hard as he could in his massive English hands.
• 40:33
  Speaker 3: And the only reason he wasn't done for assault was
• 40:36
  Speaker 3: he had the beak of a puppet bird in his hand.
• 40:39
  Speaker 3: It was like, I didn't grab you by the fucking larynx.
• 40:42
  Speaker 3: That was Emu. So we're all friends here now I
• 40:44
  Speaker 3: missed Rob Hull went straight rod Hull went straight over
• 40:47
  Speaker 3: my head.
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: I well, I can tell you why that was, because
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: if you were a kid watching rod Hole and Emu's
• 40:55
  Speaker 2: all live Pink wind Mill Show, which would have been,
• 40:58
  Speaker 2: like you know, we would have been just about the
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: right hyd Fort because he had a show in the
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: nineteen eighty one to eighty two which we couldn't possibly
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: have seen. Tom, No, but eighty four to eighty seven
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: was the Pink Windmill Show. Rodhall was there, yes, but
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: also there was grot Bags, a witch who was infatuated
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: with kidnapping amy and would come in and cause all
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: kinds of havoc and hell and she above all else,
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: Tom above all else were defining characteristic Apart from Greenskin
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: was the fact that she fucking hated children. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: she hated children.
• 41:40
  Speaker 3: She was a despicable bastard more than anything. I mean,
• 41:43
  Speaker 3: but it was there was probably an underlying, maybe I guess,
• 41:49
  Speaker 3: a lesson for kids to be to learn in it
• 41:51
  Speaker 3: that not all adults are sound. Well this is you
• 41:54
  Speaker 3: know too. I mean like if I think if groth
• 41:56
  Speaker 3: Bags was on TV shows now and our kids were
• 41:59
  Speaker 3: showing grap Bags. She would be, you know, revealed at
• 42:02
  Speaker 3: the end of every episode to be kind hearted and
• 42:04
  Speaker 3: actually quite a good soul. Like you know, she might
• 42:06
  Speaker 3: even like turn good at the end of a series
• 42:10
  Speaker 3: and help it. Not this grop Bags.
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: No, she was in charge of a competition called grot
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: Bags Grotto where kids could come and win prizes and
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: you had to beat grod Bags to win prizes in
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: sort of like a deal or no deal. Do you
• 42:22
  Speaker 2: want the prizes or do you want to like it?
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: Like like like a spin the wheel kind of thing.
• 42:25
  Speaker 2: Do you want the prizes or do you want this?
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: And anytime grop Bags got the better of these children
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: and they walked away with like a tea bag or
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: a mousetrap or something like that, she would cackle.
• 42:36
  Speaker 3: She would be delighted. She sold the hell out of it.
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And anytime the kids would win and get one
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: over and walk away with like, you know, an Atari
• 42:45
  Speaker 2: twenty six hundred or whatever like that, she.
• 42:47
  Speaker 3: Would be like, well, you take that, you horrible bratsy,
• 42:49
  Speaker 3: And she would roar the kids in the audience to
• 42:51
  Speaker 3: be quiet, and she would she was an old bitch.
• 42:56
  Speaker 3: It was it was incredible to watch and and and
• 42:59
  Speaker 3: has and I'll tell you, I'll tell you what it was. Tom.
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: Here's the thing that it was only in the research
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: for this show and I had this come up. Was
• 43:05
  Speaker 2: like my YouTube algorithm threw up, you know, some video
• 43:10
  Speaker 2: of grop Bags and I watched and then I found
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: myself watching like three straight hours of got Bags content.
• 43:15
  Speaker 3: You know. Just that's just how the internet works, man,
• 43:17
  Speaker 3: That's how it gets you. Yeah.
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: Here's the thing I only realized now forty years after
• 43:21
  Speaker 2: I've seen this woman god Bags was green mm hm.
• 43:25
  Speaker 2: She had green curly hair of sort of green curly
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: perm and she had the witch's hat like she was, like,
• 43:31
  Speaker 2: I say, a witch. She didn't look like, you know
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: again like we say these days. She wasn't Samantha from
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: Bewitched sort of sexy little witch with a wiggly nose.
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: And also she was like a fuck she was a.
• 43:42
  Speaker 3: Chron right yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. Here's the thing I
• 43:44
  Speaker 3: only realized looking at her and eye one of her
• 43:49
  Speaker 3: eyebrows was a nice sauceles triangle, like it was like
• 44:01
  Speaker 3: her eyebrows were painted on in black mark or onto
• 44:03
  Speaker 3: the green. And rather than give her just like two eyebrows.
• 44:06
  Speaker 3: One of them was like a sharp triangle about an
• 44:09
  Speaker 3: inch high. That's that's the illumina. That's a sign of
• 44:12
  Speaker 3: the illuminatic.
• 44:14
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, and I had like the little Mason eyeball
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: and her, Yeah, it was like a black triangle but happening.
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: And what that meant was like even when she just
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: looked at you, it was like this weird, off kilter,
• 44:24
  Speaker 2: fucking mad bitch look to her. You know, there was
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: a craziness.
• 44:29
  Speaker 6: You see.
• 44:29
  Speaker 3: I don't think right if you went to rad or
• 44:31
  Speaker 3: any of nowadays, I don't think you could breed that
• 44:34
  Speaker 3: level of entertainer, you know what I mean. She came
• 44:37
  Speaker 3: out of.
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: Well we'll tell we'll tell you now exactly where she
• 44:40
  Speaker 2: came from, because good grop bags. It wasn't like to
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: mister and missus Baggs a daughter grot like it was.
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: She wasn't born with crop bags as her name. She
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: was born Carol Lee Scott in nineteen forty two, so
• 44:52
  Speaker 2: like you know, she would have seen a Blitzer two
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: in her in her infancy and then came through as
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: a singer in the pub. Now, I dare say, when
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: we say a singer in the pub, Tom like, this
• 45:03
  Speaker 2: is this is what I feel like the X Factor
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: and pop Idol and Britain's got talent has has has
• 45:10
  Speaker 2: robbed us of and that's people that are just happily
• 45:13
  Speaker 2: singing in pubs, this which since she went and like.
• 45:16
  Speaker 3: I suppose there's a few of them that have made
• 45:19
  Speaker 3: it through the likes of Shane Ritchie and that they
• 45:21
  Speaker 3: came through the Ponton's way and she did nearly twenty
• 45:24
  Speaker 3: years in Pontents apparently. But it makes perfect sense because
• 45:27
  Speaker 3: it makes perfect sense.
• 45:28
  Speaker 2: I mean like these days, someone gets to twenty two
• 45:30
  Speaker 2: and they're halfway decent singer and then the go for
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: X Factor and it's like, oh you know, they came
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: turn the X Factor on this old they came in
• 45:37
  Speaker 2: number seventeen with their first single and never heard. I
• 45:39
  Speaker 2: was like no no, no, no, no, no, no, no
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: no no, not that for Carol Lee's God. As you
• 45:42
  Speaker 2: said yourself, it was one job you were. You were
• 45:45
  Speaker 2: a decent pub singer and you went to Pontons.
• 45:48
  Speaker 3: But you can see by her like they're through the
• 45:51
  Speaker 3: depths of green on our face. The level is a
• 45:55
  Speaker 3: self deprecation that needs to be comfortable with in a
• 45:59
  Speaker 3: performer doing that day in day out. Yeah, can only
• 46:04
  Speaker 3: be built up from a tick skin of doing nineteen
• 46:06
  Speaker 3: years of fucking summer shows in pontons like that woman,
• 46:13
  Speaker 3: not even bottlers. That woman could have gone to fucking
• 46:17
  Speaker 3: Vietnam and I wouldn't have faced her. She was fucking
• 46:20
  Speaker 3: there was nothing behind her eyesbody club and read no bother,
• 46:23
  Speaker 3: not a fucking bother, Give me the mic, hold my beer.
• 46:26
  Speaker 3: I'll be back in a fucking second, like she You
• 46:29
  Speaker 3: just no buyer, that nothing if. I don't know if
• 46:33
  Speaker 3: it was her concept, it was Rothhold's concept, I guarantee you.
• 46:37
  Speaker 3: She didn't give a fox. She was like, you know what,
• 46:39
  Speaker 3: it's another gig man, paint my face green. I don't
• 46:41
  Speaker 3: get Yeah, draw a fucking triangle. Do I get the
• 46:43
  Speaker 3: light up? A fucking crocodile with a stick and shouted children,
• 46:46
  Speaker 3: fucking perfect, fucking perfect. But she she did in all fairs.
• 46:52
  Speaker 3: So she toured around a fair bit of on the
• 46:54
  Speaker 3: off season, which would be the winter. I guess of that,
• 46:57
  Speaker 3: and you're doing what I suppose, it's probably faded away
• 46:59
  Speaker 3: and probab you built hard skins and a lot of
• 47:01
  Speaker 3: comedians where the men's working clubs of the UK SPO. Yeah,
• 47:07
  Speaker 3: which I I for ailor for good. These the what
• 47:12
  Speaker 3: comes in or comes out, they're kind of missing from
• 47:15
  Speaker 3: society a bit now obviously. You know, we just talked
• 47:19
  Speaker 3: at the top of the show about our wives delighted
• 47:20
  Speaker 3: to see the back of us every so often. Like,
• 47:22
  Speaker 3: but I would imagine it was kind of a there
• 47:27
  Speaker 3: would be a level of cathartic cathartism in being part
• 47:31
  Speaker 3: of a club where you're like, well, we're all working blokes,
• 47:35
  Speaker 3: we can give out like fuck. Where there was no
• 47:37
  Speaker 3: such thing as therapy back then or whatever. Fellas didn't
• 47:39
  Speaker 3: know how to deal with their emotions. Sure it breeds
• 47:42
  Speaker 3: fucking madness and you know you go into some of
• 47:46
  Speaker 3: these and no doubt back in the day they just
• 47:48
  Speaker 3: wanted their racist comedian for sure, Like you know what
• 47:51
  Speaker 3: I mean. Like, but there's what it did build was
• 47:55
  Speaker 3: a brilliant circuit for the likes of more Wise, Tommy Cooper.
• 47:59
  Speaker 2: You know, we talked about this time when we talked
• 48:01
  Speaker 2: about Jim Bowen coming up a May moons ago. It
• 48:04
  Speaker 2: was like, you know, these days the working Man's Club
• 48:06
  Speaker 2: was has is a bit of a dirty word for like,
• 48:09
  Speaker 2: you know, it's it's this kind of humor. It's that
• 48:12
  Speaker 2: kind of humor. But like you know, back in the day,
• 48:13
  Speaker 2: it was like a solid network of hundreds of clubs
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: up and down the country where working comedian, cabaretting or
• 48:20
  Speaker 2: whoever they might be could get work every fucking.
• 48:23
  Speaker 3: Night of the week.
• 48:24
  Speaker 2: If you were inclined to drive up and down the
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: country doing this, and we've driven further for less time,
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: you could appear and and and and make your name
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: and through time eventually you will you're any good at all.
• 48:35
  Speaker 2: Look at the names you mentioned there, like you know,
• 48:38
  Speaker 2: Mark Morewise, Canaona and ball I Dare say Hale and
• 48:41
  Speaker 2: Pays Jim Boone. I mean, you know score not the
• 48:44
  Speaker 2: type of comedy that they came out with at the time.
• 48:46
  Speaker 3: But they were the biggest TV stars in the country. Well,
• 48:50
  Speaker 3: this is the thing, and fair play to Rod Hull,
• 48:52
  Speaker 3: like he was a name at the time and he
• 48:55
  Speaker 3: was working with her doing like summer seasons in I
• 49:00
  Speaker 3: think it was Cleathorps, which is kind of one of
• 49:02
  Speaker 3: these you know, seaside towns or whatever, and it was
• 49:07
  Speaker 3: him who basically pitched a TV show idea of Rod
• 49:10
  Speaker 3: you know him and em you but then figured this
• 49:13
  Speaker 3: is going to have to be a sketch show. Degree
• 49:14
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna need more, and brought uh, what's her name
• 49:19
  Speaker 3: with him, brought Scott whatever. Yeah, I mean, but like
• 49:22
  Speaker 3: you know, he would have known.
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: Anybody would have known, Hello, I've got a TV show.
• 49:25
  Speaker 2: It's me and am you Well, what do you do?
• 49:26
  Speaker 2: I would just kind of cut around the place talking shout.
• 49:29
  Speaker 2: They say, well, that's no good. What is this podcasting?
• 49:33
  Speaker 2: You need an antagonist, you need someone to fight against.
• 49:35
  Speaker 2: And he's like, okay, how about I fight a witch
• 49:36
  Speaker 2: that wants to kidnapped?
• 49:38
  Speaker 4: You know?
• 49:38
  Speaker 3: Em you fine? Do you know anybody that could do that?
• 49:41
  Speaker 3: And he was like, let me say a lady, let
• 49:45
  Speaker 3: me send a wire because in all fairness, like you
• 49:48
  Speaker 3: can see old pro I do like to see a
• 49:51
  Speaker 3: fucking expert at anything, do you know what I mean?
• 49:53
  Speaker 3: If it's fucking making samurai swords, if it's fucking you know,
• 49:56
  Speaker 3: you see these people in America that take their job.
• 49:58
  Speaker 3: So see he's like begging at the supermarket and they're
• 50:01
  Speaker 3: the fastest fucking bagger in the world. I love seeing
• 50:04
  Speaker 3: an expert. And you sent me on a clip and
• 50:06
  Speaker 3: every so often, like I've worked with a couple of
• 50:08
  Speaker 3: West End stars and stuff like that, and I've just
• 50:10
  Speaker 3: been agog to how professional they are in every facet.
• 50:13
  Speaker 3: I've been on stage, complete messes off the fucking thing.
• 50:16
  Speaker 3: But you sent me on a clip of Carol coming
• 50:20
  Speaker 3: on to Bullseye. Yes, Yeah, Worlds Collde and the Avengers
• 50:27
  Speaker 3: of the working Man's Club, and I was, I was
• 50:30
  Speaker 3: fucking I was, I was, I just was in awe.
• 50:32
  Speaker 3: I was like from the second every step she took,
• 50:36
  Speaker 3: every fucking throw the eyebrow, that fucking she owned that
• 50:40
  Speaker 3: show for the.
• 50:41
  Speaker 2: Time that she was on it, like for that, you know,
• 50:43
  Speaker 2: because she was like a season vet. She's been doing
• 50:45
  Speaker 2: since she was nineteen years of age, so she knows, like,
• 50:47
  Speaker 2: you know, you've got three minutes out here, so you
• 50:49
  Speaker 2: want to make everybody it's none of this hang around
• 50:52
  Speaker 2: to wait for your turn to talk kind of horseshit
• 50:54
  Speaker 2: that you exactly you've got three minutes.
• 51:00
  Speaker 3: Like even Bone he knew he knows there obviously years
• 51:03
  Speaker 3: he stood back. He knew he didn't have to. You know,
• 51:05
  Speaker 3: you see Conan O'Brien and he's been you know, they're
• 51:07
  Speaker 3: well versed, and he teased he puts the ball up
• 51:09
  Speaker 3: in the air and they volleyed back to him and
• 51:11
  Speaker 3: he laughs, or some of the more egregious fucking ones
• 51:15
  Speaker 3: like you know, Kim and and whatever laugh like fucking seals.
• 51:18
  Speaker 3: But you could see Boone just going, oh, this is
• 51:21
  Speaker 3: a force of nature right here. He stands back and
• 51:24
  Speaker 3: he's loving it. He's just fucking loving it.
• 51:27
  Speaker 2: That's that's, that's all you had to do with if
• 51:29
  Speaker 2: you had like a season performer like Carl Lee Scott
• 51:31
  Speaker 2: or indeed any of the others that came through that
• 51:33
  Speaker 2: kind of system from going for real and like, you know,
• 51:35
  Speaker 2: you can look back with it and think it would
• 51:37
  Speaker 2: be all very high bround, Like I'm gonna tell you
• 51:40
  Speaker 2: that ship was drawn twenty million people.
• 51:44
  Speaker 3: Paer episode. I'm telling you now, Like I mean, they
• 51:46
  Speaker 3: didn't have their arena tours really back then, but somebody
• 51:50
  Speaker 3: like grath Bags if she took a show on the road,
• 51:53
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean, that was the usual character
• 51:55
  Speaker 3: forever more like that was like by all accounts, even
• 51:58
  Speaker 3: I remember reading Darryl Breen's book, and he was he
• 52:02
  Speaker 3: seemed to be following Rod Hood's you know, tour, like
• 52:06
  Speaker 3: he was in after him, and he was just he
• 52:09
  Speaker 3: could never just going rod hold a two and a
• 52:11
  Speaker 3: half hours. Last night he did three hours, Like what
• 52:13
  Speaker 3: the fuck? The guy's in his eighties, But more and
• 52:16
  Speaker 3: more he was just in awe. Regardless of the show
• 52:18
  Speaker 3: what you thought about, You're like, that's a fucking pro.
• 52:21
  Speaker 3: That's a worker. That's a worker. And that's what grod
• 52:24
  Speaker 3: Bags was. That's what Carly Scott was an absolute worker.
• 52:27
  Speaker 3: And really, anybody go have a look at the at
• 52:32
  Speaker 3: the one that Jerry Jerry would say, I'll share and
• 52:36
  Speaker 3: I'll share some some EMUs world and whatnot. It's just
• 52:39
  Speaker 3: to see her. She just goes out, not in an
• 52:41
  Speaker 3: obnoxious way, just knows that green light is on. Time
• 52:44
  Speaker 3: to go, baby, This is what pros. Time to go
• 52:46
  Speaker 3: to worker. Yeah, and she just stands back and lets
• 52:48
  Speaker 3: her at it. Grod Bags your proper original witch, you
• 52:52
  Speaker 3: know what I mean, honest to God.
• 52:53
  Speaker 2: And you know, you know, for for for that level
• 52:55
  Speaker 2: of professionalism, you say to yourself, well, it's just being
• 52:57
  Speaker 2: a witch on a kid's TV show. But I'm gonna
• 52:59
  Speaker 2: te ye there's a reason I'm talking about that woman
• 53:02
  Speaker 2: forty years later and her voice is still ringing in
• 53:05
  Speaker 2: my head, absolutely exactly as clear as it was when
• 53:07
  Speaker 2: I was sitting down watching Crop Bags grot open. It
• 53:10
  Speaker 2: was five years of age. And that is because carl
• 53:12
  Speaker 2: Lee Scott was just such a professional, so very good
• 53:15
  Speaker 2: at it, and went on to reap the rewards of
• 53:20
  Speaker 2: crop Bags, starting her own spin off Crop Bags TV
• 53:23
  Speaker 2: show for two years, which can tell you, Tom, I
• 53:25
  Speaker 2: didn't really like. But I was putting thirteen at that stage.
• 53:27
  Speaker 2: It was a little bit I might have been a
• 53:29
  Speaker 2: little bit old for.
• 53:29
  Speaker 3: Now and then and then passed away at the age
• 53:33
  Speaker 3: of seventy four in twenty seventeen, so not all that
• 53:36
  Speaker 3: dreadful long ago that happened now, you know, and seventy
• 53:39
  Speaker 3: four is somewhat half decent age, I suppose maybe, yeah, yeah,
• 53:44
  Speaker 3: I guess. I mean, she won the healthiest woman on
• 53:47
  Speaker 3: two legs, like when you look at her, like you know,
• 53:49
  Speaker 3: she wasn't and you know right.
• 53:51
  Speaker 2: Now, and like you know, I don't believe that there
• 53:54
  Speaker 2: was a no smoking policy in any one of the
• 53:56
  Speaker 2: clubs that she worked in for forty years straight.
• 53:58
  Speaker 3: So this is the thing, Like I say, she probably
• 54:01
  Speaker 3: swung as hard with the boys as any of the boys, did,
• 54:03
  Speaker 3: you know that kind of way she looked like a
• 54:05
  Speaker 3: one after the after the show, she's having pints, you
• 54:08
  Speaker 3: know that kind of way, like and listen, she's some
• 54:12
  Speaker 3: fucking run. Many of the people have gotten to seventy four,
• 54:14
  Speaker 3: have gotten one hundred and four and never done half
• 54:17
  Speaker 3: the things that a woman like this has done.
• 54:18
  Speaker 2: Like, so you know what she and I will and
• 54:21
  Speaker 2: I will say this for our Tom, unlike many of
• 54:23
  Speaker 2: the people that I looked up to on the TV
• 54:25
  Speaker 2: in the eighties.
• 54:26
  Speaker 3: Hasn't been outed as a nuns. So she got that
• 54:29
  Speaker 3: going for as well. That's I gotta tell you, just
• 54:32
  Speaker 3: rarefied air these days. You've read that no bother. Yeah,
• 54:37
  Speaker 3: So that was that was grop bags. We wanted to
• 54:39
  Speaker 3: take a little a little hr for grop bags there
• 54:41

• 55:48
  Speaker 3: the lead singer was so far up his own arts
• 55:50

• 55:52
  Speaker 3: old tire onto a sideage pit. Yeah, they're mentioned. Yeah,
• 55:57
  Speaker 3: you mentioned it about the Levi's ad.

• 56:23
