• 8:43
  Speaker 1: Man, we both nearly I said, we leave each other
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: voice notes, right and stuff like that, especially when I'm
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: driving home and I've pulled into the garage because I'm
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: a responsible driver or whatever. I'm sipping my coffee and
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: I'm thinking, do you know what I can leave you?
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: I just thought of this thing and it came to mind,
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: and I said we should probably maybe it's not worth it,
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: and Jerry was like, yeah, I think there's no meat
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: on the bone. There's no meat on the bone here
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: for this thing.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: But the next if you if you listened to what
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: does get on the show? Think about what doesn't?
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, do you know what? There's got to be
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: meat on the bone. People listen for a reason. It's
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: got to be meat on the bone. And when it
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: came up, I didn't watch the Late Late the young
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: flow wanted to watch it because all the kids in
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: school are watching. He's in early go to better. He
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: is a twelve hour, a ten eleven eleven hour sleeping man.
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: He runs the wheels off himself, burns out, burn, Oh,
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: it's incredible, and bounces out of bed like a six am,
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: like going, what the day got me? Because he's been
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: to bed at seven the night before. So this particular
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: night he wanted to stay up and my wife text me.
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: I was at a gig in Dublin. My wife text
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: me and goes, yeah, your man listened till about ten
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: minutes into the late late he took himself up to bed.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: It's too much talking for him, He goes, they call
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: it the toy show. Wouldn't they call it the talking show?
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: That was his answer later.
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: But here's the thing that the town was talking to
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: me about earlier in the week. Was a phenomenon that
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: had kind of come and went, or so we taught
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: and that's a phenomenon called six seven just a meme
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: as they say, that had spread into the playground, and
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: we were perfectly happy to.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: Not discuss it.
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, then every second child on the Late Late Toy
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: Show were dropping six seven memes like they had literally
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: just heard of the day before, to the point where
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: we said to ourselves, we better take a look into
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: this bullshit.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: Can you give me context? Because ourselves said it too,
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: But I didn't actually ask her to give me. How
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: were kids just breaking this up? So if Keilty is
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: there and he's gone, I so tell me about this,
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: wee litt dullier. After getting there, were kids just turned
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: around and going, yeah, one second Patrick six seven.
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: Like no, they would they would, they would sneak it
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: into conversation. So Keilty would say to you play with
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: that a lot. Oh, I played with a lot, Patrick,
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: I played with it, and the look at the camera
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: six seven times? Okay.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: So obviously the producers had absolutely hammed up for this too,
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: like let and ones.
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: That they didn't have. We'll get into it now in
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: a little second. But the six to seven meme is
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: also accompanied by a hand gesture.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, where you just you're kind of weighing weighing up
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: the odds, aren't you?
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: You're weighing up the odds. It kind of you know,
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: an olboy at the mark on. I don't know, Yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: yeah yeah.
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: Are you jugglers? Yeah? Okay?
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: So the six seven the six seven meme is what
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: can I say? It's one of those things that nobody
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: really knows where it came from, and nobody really knows
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: where it went. Ah. And the only reason we're talking
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: about is that it was featured so heavily on The
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: Lately Toy Show last week that I dare say a
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: lot of the listenership who share age brackets with ourselves
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: will be going, what the fuck was all that about?
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: And who better to hear it from than to up
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: and come and go getting forty something in our old comedians, right,
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: I mean, we've got our finger on the pulse. I
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: didn't just google this earlier today. Well, I tell you
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: what now, I heard it probably back in September, and
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: I was the it's been on the go a little while.
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: These twelve there were maybe twelves are No, they weren't
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: transition to your students and they were. I was teaching
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: them stand up for a couple of days and one
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: or two got to a point and they would do
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: the same thing.
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: They crowbarring six seven, and all the other lads are going,
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: would you fucking stop? Here's okay, would you stop? Like
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: they didn't want the other guy doing it, and I'm like,
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: I don't hold on, I need to ask you what
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: is it? And they were like, we don't know, we're
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: just doing six seven. And with their hands, I'm like, okay,
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: we you can't put that in your set. You're a
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: little two minutes said, you ain't putting that in because
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: we're doing for that. We're doing it for the old folks.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: By the way they're going to they're not gonna get it,
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: you know, play the heads kid. Yeah.
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: So the six seven memes origins comes from a rap
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: song called dud Dude by a rapper called Scriller. The
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: song is called Dude Dude Brackets six seven. I've listened
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: to it, Tom. It's two minutes and twenty six seconds long.
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: It's fucking unintelligible. It literally is unintelligible. It's this mumble
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: wrap crap. It's just nonsense and noise and in the
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: middle of it, there goes doude do six seven. That's it,
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: that's literally it is that it handjest. He doesn't do it,
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: and he just says six to seven. You can look
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: up lyrics and and see what is the deep meaning
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: behind this.
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: There is no I read. I read into it a
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago, and it was people like there
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: was language experts and everything that had tried to decipher
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: that maybe it was because Scrilla is from sixty seventh
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: Street in Philadelphia.
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: Was it about that? I would take that as an explanation.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: Was it some basketball player you know? And it was
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: were they aligning it with the fact that he was
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: six seven? I was like, what if it did?
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: It grew legs, okay, as these things do. It grew
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: legs on TikTok when people were using that music video
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: to accompany if they made up a little editor of
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: Lebron James or whoever the hell it might be, or
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: any basketball player that was about six seven, and by
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: a large it was just taken over. Nobody really cared
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: until a child brought it into life when he was
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: featured in a crowd shot in the basketball game and
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: the camera caught him or he caught the camera one
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: or the other. And he looked straight down the lens
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: of it, and he said six seven. And he did
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: a little hand gesture as bad as that I can understand.
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: He did the hand gesture himself. And that became all
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: of a sudden, It's like, okay, we've got the six
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: to seven kid. We've got the milky barkad. He's a
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: young child, he's like twelve years of age. If he's
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: doing it, we can do it fair enough. So be
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: it and the child. It must be said, Tom, and
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: it must be said by me. The child's name is
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: Maverick Trevellion.
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: Okay, first part of that name, loving it. Second part
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: not so much, because I'd hate to have stolen his corn.
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: Fucking well, you know, I.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: Never thought that travelling with the corn would be my
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: second most hated allien. I didn't see anybody leap frogging him, Tom.
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: But here we are, I mean, you.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: Know, historical, I suppose remember the side. It's a pretty
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: cool name, Maverick Travell that's a pretty cool name. But
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: so I mean, because this this took over the holes, guys, Like,
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: if I just stop my I have stopped my ladder.
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: Now he's six. He doesn't know he's six seven when
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: he gets now he is, Yeah, exactly, he's to worry.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: That's it. He's pulled that one on me several times
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: and I went, all right, no more. Now we're stopping that.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: So what's he doing? Because we practice is irish all
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: the time. He'll walk into the room and go shay shocked,
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: and I'm like.
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: Oh, fuck you, Okay, you have me fair enough.
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: But I mean, it's the want to phrase, it's the
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: it's the it's the hot tour, like she's a millionaire.
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: Now do you know what I'm going to tell you?
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: Even Tom, like, we're no stranger of this. We're not
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: going to go to we remember when this early in
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: the show.
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: No, but memes have been popping up for years like it,
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: not even memes like you know, like it could could anybody.
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: Be put to the sword and explain exactly what cowabunga
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: means other than it's just an expression of joy and
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: excitement with no exact meaning or no exact origin.
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: No. And I was trying to think of, you know,
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: because we all have even if you go back to
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: the earliest times like that. I mean some like Little
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: Richards sang some mad ship. You know what I mean?
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: J What do you mean by that? What are we doing?
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: That?
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: Is that about writing? What do you do? It's just
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: it's just toty three? Tell me here is just like
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: an I guess it's just it's turn. Here's the thing
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: with Tom right, And here's what I know, because my
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: kids are as cool as well, they know what's up.
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: Even on its Wikipedia page, the Wikipedia page for six
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: seven Yeah, says that wicked that six seven is an
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: internet meme and slang term. It has no fixed meaning.
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: Well what a sense that speaks volumes because the kids
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: that go six seven they're not saying it out of
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: joy and they're not seeing it out of anger. They're
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: just saying it.
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: And that was the thing I was going is it.
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: Is there some dirtiness in it? You know, some boldness
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: in it? You know what I mean? Like, is there
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: a bold meeting behind it that we should we should
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: know about it? But even your man's scrilla, by the way,
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: drill rap can get the fucking sea. I don't I
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: don't give it. I'm I'm not having any that fucking
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: mumble rap ship.
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: That's only Drilla, I'm interested in his Milwaukee.
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: Now you're talking like any of that fucking rubbish has
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: to come out of the UK. And I was the
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: road man. We keep you're like, and they're quite quite
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: quick in the du shut. I'm not put him up
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: against ice Cube, any of them, you know what I mean?
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: Put him up again, like, shut the fuck up. It's rubbish.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: And even Scrilla himself when it was putting, because they
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: had they had like an African American English expert Taylor Jones.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: Taylor Jones that that's a person's going to book you
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: in the seventies with a leather check it on, but
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: speculated that it might refer to the ten to seven,
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: the police radio code used to notify officers of a death.
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: And I mean, if ever, if ever somebody was just
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: rooting around in their pocket for an answer, because when
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: it when it was put to Scrilla, he would I
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: never put an actual meaning on it. So that will
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: tell you. That'll give you the height of meaning when
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: it comes to drill rap. I never put a meaning
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: on it, and I still wouldn't want to do.
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm going to tell you. I'll tell you,
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you more for for drill rap six seven
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: doesn't mean anything, and he put it in the song. Okay,
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: well I guess he rhymed it with something.
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: Nope, nope, nope, nope, not what they do these days,
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: so you can just throw like, well you just listen
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: to I mean, what's his it's not dizzy rascal as
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: it has that what the gun goes quite back? Jeez,
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: it's another it's another ballocks, like do you.
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: Know what I'm going to tell you?
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: We're gonna want to.
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: Attempt to stay on track here and wrap this up.
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: Is anybody are waiting for us to unveil the mystery
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: of this? There is none. They're saying six seven here's
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: the thing, my son, And indeed, like any kids about that,
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: you would just hear saying it Tom. Even they don't
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: like it. I told you that like it when they
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: hear it, and they don't know whether it's supposed to
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: be good, bad or middland like it's it's really quite
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: like brain rotten all again. Brain rot is the thing
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: these days.
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: Of course, Well, my lad only does it just to
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: annoy me? Yeah, but you.
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: Find to annoy themselves. But it's it's it's what we
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: used to up up our way what we would call
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: Moccol's catch. And if you often heard that, you're mocking
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: six seven for being so stupid that you find yourself
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: saying it anyway. Yeah see what I'm saying.
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean there, but there was like you know,
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: this is one of those ones where you know, people say, oh,
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: can live in my head, rent free, like there are
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: certain ones like I don't know if you ever heard,
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: and it's it's not just I don't It was a
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: chappy made a video in Longford, the most like God
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: bless the most helpless lads you've ever seen. But he
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: was trying to be a lad and he's walking away
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: like a cheaper chippy bag under his arms, like don't
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: lie by its? Is there better to getting at three
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: and one from the Chinese arest and best and heading
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: to the spiratory afterwards? Yump out of it. Jesus Christ,
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: you don't boots for this. The abount of people are
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: like Jesus Christ, leave some pussy for the rest of us,
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: you know.
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: So six seven, there you go.
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: We normally get we normally get to the bottom of
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: these things, don't we are? So we're sorry. There's We're
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: all we're doing is just kind of, you know, just
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: being there with you. If you're six to your I
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: tea here and we're with you, it's very possible.
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: But by the time this episode lands in your ear
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: holes in three days time, all this will have blown
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: over and nobody will be saying, but I gotta tell you,
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: this came around in September and it's mid December now,
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: and there's things taking it rightly.
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: I will say, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's it's made. It's
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: like you had thought it. It burned out and then you
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: watch the late Late and all of a sudden. But
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: they lately do that same with with all the pantos.
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: Every year they try and look back, like I remember
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: being in a panto and they had there was a
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: there was a there was a quarterway bit in between
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: scenes that meant nothing at all. It was just a
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: filler bit and it was just it was one of
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: the lads chasing a bat around the stage because that
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: was the video that was the video from Get Him
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: that I Get Him, you know that one. So they'll
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: always try and use something from what they so they
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: dredged it back up. I guarantee it it was I.
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: Guarantee it'll be in all the pantos threat and then
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: I will say Tom and any of the listeners of
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: the Tom and Jerry Show. If you find yourself helpless
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: against these things and your kids are saying six seven,
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: you can't fight city Hall, you know, you know, all
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: you can do is join in with them. So I
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: will join in with the kids. Like, for example, this
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: is a good one. Anybody at home, You're welcome to
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: do this. If you're filling the car with patrol or
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: diesel or whatever you're filling it with, I try and
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: stop on exactly sixty seven euro and then they'll wrap
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: the window to the we man and point it be
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: like six seven. I gets a big laugh out of it,
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: and there you go. It's like a nice little moment
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: cost nothing, even if you're there going like I'm sorry
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: but still not a drill rap fan. But my OCD
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: would absolutely send me over the fucking edge. If I
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: was watching you doing that from across the fore court
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: and I didn't know I could.
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: You could. I'll pay for the other three yours or
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: just to round it up. I can't round up. We
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: can't even if no my tank is full port on
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: the floor.
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: If I get to if I get to sixty four
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: and I still want to do this bit, I'm just
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: gonna pour petrol on the ground. Well, there you go,
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: six seven What can I What can we say? But
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: while those lads are messing around with our numerical figures
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: and six sevens and drill wraps and whatnot. Elsewhere Tom,
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: elsewhere on the world of the Internet and the world
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: of news, there are other lads orbiting the Tom and
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: Jerry Show. We like to talk to about them in
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: a segment that we called.
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: This Lane. Now there's that guy you've got I think
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: you got half excited there on the way and the
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: description of that one you're you're climbing over yourself. There
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: is like another shot for Jerry, another blow struck against
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: this is how excited he was getting. It was like
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: this really that he has tattooed over on his chest
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: is just it's it's actually glowing right through his T shirt.
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: Right, Do I ever get to have a go at
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: travelion and the monarchy in one go? What happened at
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: the weekend A terribly British crime.
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: Extremely British crime.
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: So pair of lads, it was.
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: Actually four people into this week have been arrested after
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: a crumbling custer crumble and apple crumble and custard were
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: thrown at the Crown Jewels display. No mad mad beast
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: in the time. Now, I'm am I wrong in thinking
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: is this the same Crown jewels that you went to,
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: say the picture of and some o you?
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: So that's that's what I had to look up and
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: and and we can bring it to you that, guys,
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: these aren't of the Crown Jewels of England, some spurious
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: third party what they give to the Baronet of Walmsley
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: or whatever. These are the actual what King Charles wears
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: on his head Crown jewels. Indeed, they are the same
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: Crown jewels. Though when I was over there, I went
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: to take a picture of them, and some tooled up
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: squaddie who was under the impression that a man with
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: my accent would fucking listen to him told me not.
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: And You're like, I'll take it from here, buddy, Yeah,
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: you're all right.
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: So would this one brick?
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: As Jerry Woods has said, these are typically the ones
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: that are worn by the King or I guess the Queen.
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: I don't know that they put a bracket and a
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: Jubilee clip on the inside of it would make sense.
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: A Jubilee clip.
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: That's so nice, Tom, it's beautiful. What else would you
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: hold it on a queen's head with? Then you Bilee clip?
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, that's a podcast over by the way.
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: That's everybody you can Tom and Jerry on Instagram.
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: I'm so happy with that. That's so happy.
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: Every now and then there's magic in this show.
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: Just Jesus Christ, and I guarantee you there's like seven
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: people have gone nice.
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, everybody in the regular listenership is what and
• 25:26

  Speaker 1: after that, following investigator. It's like investigating fucking water. So
• 25:56

• 25:59
  Speaker 1: appears to being off shoot of the just Just Stop Oil,
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: which describes itself and I'm like, just stop oil, Jerry
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: fucking ram It all about sixty seven. You've got me
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: fucking just stop. Don't stop any oil. So they're apparently

  Speaker 1: a non violent sil resistance.
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: Okay, so these seem to be the Judeean people people
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: front off and the true this is the britishness of
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: it all, Tom Going, I know.
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: So they they decided right around it. It's seen. It's
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: seen on c C t V when he watched it
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: back that one of the chaps opened a tinfoil tinfoil
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: pack of apple crumbled chalked it at the glass fucking box,
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: not the actual crown juice, but the glass box that
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: they're in. And another one, another one proceeded to come
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: in with a tub of costard. I don't know whose
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: custard was. Could have been birds.
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: Could have to be birds, wouldn't it.
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: Birds are brosia make make a custard as well, I believe.
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: So they were good, they're a good leader of the stuffy.

  Speaker 2: But it was it was in with respect. How are
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: you getting a fucking leader of costard in the like
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: they're scanners and ships like getting into the airport.
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: I guess I suppose if it looks lunchy, you know
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: what I mean, If it looks lunchy in a bag
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: if it's scanning, and all the rest of it are
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: fucking weird, though, But look at the head, and you
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: do look like the start that would sit down and
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: eat a full leader.
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: To drink a leader of Coster out of Carton, and
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you to them doesn't sound like the worst
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: way that's been in an afternoon.
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: So the other fellow he poured the bright read Coster
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: down again. Democracy has crumbled. One protester could be heard shouting,
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: oh my, and they practiced that chair they like, I'm
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: all for I'm all for this one way, but not

• 27:52
  Speaker 1: just said? I was like, I think it's hilarious.
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: I think you know, you know, I'm delighted that the

  Speaker 2: I will say the throwing of fluids and and messiness
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: at public attractions, I guess would you call it it
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: is a growing thing.

  Speaker 1: only the other day, and it was they brought in bags,
• 31:37

• 31:46
  Speaker 2: These are the same guys that were throwing Kansas soup

  Speaker 2: at the Sunflowers painting a couple of years ago. And
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: the kids that did that, now, well meaning kids who
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure how wild I say this, are not
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: from working class backgrounds.

  Speaker 1: None of them are.
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: None of They walk into into the museum where Van

  Speaker 1: You need French fellows for that year.
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: You need French fellows for that. But the kids that
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: did that got like two to three years in jail
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: over like there are custodial sentence has been handed out here. Oh,
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: the UK in one way has like it's it's it's

  Speaker 2: freedom of speech stuff. It's going like they arrested twelve
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: thousand people last year just for Facebook fucking fucking texts

• 32:44
  Speaker 2: done instead? Tom, You know, don't don't post on Facebook.
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: I tell you what you do. Throw edge latinous substance
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: at whatever it is you don't like because just as
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: those other kids were throwing soup at van Go, and
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: van Go is in his grave gone like fidy sank,
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: Like what does it fuck me for?

• 33:08
  Speaker 1: ear off, cut my ear off? Yeah?
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, who said you think I will be on? There
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: was a spare rash if I dare say of throwing
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: milkshakes at politicians.

  Speaker 1: There was there was yeah yeah, yeah, all well, and
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: good to be chock and grub around the place too,

• 33:31
  Speaker 1: and and people will throw paint at things as well.
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: And here's the thing, As a man that used to
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: sell paint, let me tell you don't throw water based
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: emulsion and anybody or anything, because that's just going to
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: wash straight off, straight off. Water based emulsion is like
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: it's like dumb shower cream. You rinse it off, it's
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: no bottom. But get something with a bit of oil based,
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: Get something with a bit of sh in it. Oh
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: Jesus Christ, your dad zins are red can Yeah the
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: oil based one.
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: That should be paste. Yeah it's been paid.
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Let me tell you, whoever you throw that
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: on will be aware of their crimes and shortcomings for
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: quite some time.
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: It's almost like, you know, at the end of the
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: Glorious Bastards when they carved the Nazis in Belgium. It's
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: the same thing, really, like a.
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you're going home with that. You're going home
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: with that.
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: I can't I can't buy it that it is because
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: we know they're all middle class lads, like there's no,
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: there's yeah, and here's the thing. And they'll all, you know,
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: sure they'll regret it down the line. I'm sure at
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: some stage when they're trying to get a job in
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: daddy's law firm and stuff. But you know why they
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: all the lads are I don't know the motives of
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: girls don't Maybe they just you know, they didn't you know,
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: maybe their mother didn't speak to them enough during riding
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: school or whatever.
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: What they do care about the environment, but that is
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: a you know, secondary consideration.
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: We all care about the environment, jard. But there's I
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: guarantee you they all the lads, all of the lads
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: that are man, are all doing it to impress girls
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: because the od the other aren't great on wash to
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: hang out in their group. They're sitting around and the
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: lads they don't give a fuck.
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: Do you know what I'm going to tell you worse?
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: Worse was done for a lesser reason. I'll tell you
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: that much. This is it.
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: No, I get it, but you know what, I nearly
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: appreciate it. If I actually toltally would appreciate it. Okay,
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: I'm doing time, but look at I did it to
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: press the chicks.
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: I tell you. If that is the case, and these
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: lads were putting together this scheme to throw custard and
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: apple crumble at the Crown Jewels to say democracy has crumbled.
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: Can you imagine the balls on the lad that put
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: his hand up in that group and say, hey, everyone's like,
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: let's throw something at the Crown Jewels. And he goes, well,
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: how about we threw custard at it, and then we
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: could say mm hmm, democracy has crumbled. And the whole
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: place goes like and it blows up, and he just
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: looks over to the lastie that he wants to impress.
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: She's sitting over there with the big glasses and dungarees.
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah baby, yeah baby, he passed.
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: I'm bringing to the table he probably got a look
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: of it that that evening. I'm not saying he got there,
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: but he might have gotten that look of it. You know,
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: here's the thing they're gonna get. They're gonna get three
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: years and one's worth of no doubt, and it's gonna
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: be It's gonna be a rough road. I hope it
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: was worth the lads.
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: But do you know what I'm gonna tell you, lads,
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: You've given the king something to think about. Perhaps he
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: will just fold up the tent now. Go Jesus, I
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: didn't know people thought that strongly of sneaking a leader
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: Aboards Costard and a fucking Mueller dessert corner and throw it,
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: throw it at the crown. Wrap it up, lads. We
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: had a good run. But these kids are on what's here?
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: Now? There's there's a the chefs, the celebrity chefs and
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: over the country. The fuck? Could you've gone for something better? Yeah?
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: Couldn't you? Couldn't you have thrown like it's an ice
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: cream or Kremberly or whatever.
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: I was just saying that Kremberly would be kind of cool. Yes,
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: But then again it is friendship suppose, so you never
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: are trying to do it whole British what's the most
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: whole bridge thing. Yeah, yeah, the whole bridge, just the
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: ice cream and jelly.
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: There you go. I think they found out very swiftly,
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: Tom that the one thing that doesn't go well with
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: apple crumble is pepper spray. So but with that being said,
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: they are going to spend their Christmas. They're going to
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: get their Christmas dinner, Tom boarding with the warden in
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: the old.
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: Gray Bar Hotel.
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: And what they might miss out at the Christmas dinner
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: is something that is the topic of our next segment, Tom,
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: which is the closing segment of the Tom and Jerry Show,
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: where we look back at things we remember finally down
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: through the years, in a segment we call we Remember
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: When Tom, when I was a young lad twenty or
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: thirty or forty years ago.
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: This is lovely. I mean, we are winding up nicely.
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: It's Christmas, it is indeed, and like I said, like
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: the lads in Wormworth Scrubs aren't going to have a
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: nice Christmas, but we are, Tom, you and I personally,
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: because we've had several nice Christmases down through the years.
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: Because as people might know, me and Tom are children
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: of the eighties. We've seen a lot of things come
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: and a lot of things go over our forty some
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: odd years on this rock as we pivoted through the
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: full crum of life as we call it here, and
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: a lot of things that people today kind of take
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: for granted as being things that we're always here, weren't.
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: We were right there tom Day one adopters of it.
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: And what we want to talk about this week is
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: all of the Day one Christmas songs that you and
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: I both saw released in our youth.
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: And here's the thing, right yeah, because this is the thing,
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: like it's up there with like fucking Rubert Custard and Jelly,
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: you know, our fucking Rubert and Custer. It's a thing
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: that you thought was always around, but it really didn't.
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: It didn't expel like the money making machine didn't really
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: copy it like they I don't think the recording studios
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: they didn't hadn't bring I'm sure there was White Christmas
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: by you know, and all the old classics and that
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: stuff from down through the years, but they were nearly
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: as a result of something else like a movie, or
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: they were just a general song. You know.
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: There seem to have been a pivot or maybe just
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: I don't know, some sort of creative dright. But there
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: was a period in round about two thousands, two thousand
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: and five there about where bang our Christmas songs just
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: stopped coming out. And it wasn't a matter of taste.
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: It wasn't just that they weren't for your absolutely, they
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: were just not as good as what had come before.
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: Because what Tom's talking about there is this old notion
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: that if you wrote credible Christmas song, you were set
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: for life. You were set for life.
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: It was the spine of the story in the About
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: a Boy, it wasn't it. It was that was exactly right. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: it's the story.
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: Of About a Boy, the Nick Hornby book where the
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: protagonist of it, Hugh Granting the movie, just lives off
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: the royalties of his father's novelty Christmas hit Santas Super.
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 40:24
  Speaker 2: And that was not a far fetched thing. If you
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: wrote a Christmas song and it was a banger, you
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: were set for life. And I think today in the
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: streaming era, you're not no, no, you're to fetch the imagination.
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: Even by that token, I mean I remember hearing like
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: every January, like Seane McGowan's estate Now I guess his
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: missus is, you know, his widowed missus. She's still picking
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: up a check and it's into the six figures because
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: I guess im row and stuff like that in shops
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: have to use it, and it's used, you.
• 40:58
  Speaker 2: Know, you gotta get paid. If it's on the radio,
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: you gotta get paid. Now, forget about streaming. We're talking
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: about it being played on the radio. And now me
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: and Tom aren't so old that we remember the first.
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: Days that.
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: Wizard and Slade went head to head for Christmas supremacy.
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: That was nineteen seventy three.
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: But they made so much.
• 41:17
  Speaker 2: Fucking money out of that. And now everybody before that,
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: Bing Crosby wasn't doing his Christmas songs for fucking make
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: a wish like everybody was making money. But over in
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: the UK, people suddenly realized, like, holy shit, look at
• 41:31
  Speaker 2: Naughty Holder, look at Wizard. They're making so much goddamn
• 41:34
  Speaker 2: money of this. This is the way you make money.
• 41:37
  Speaker 2: And special effort I feel was put into making Christmas
• 41:41
  Speaker 2: bangers throughout the eighties and early nineties that these are
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: some of the songs that you hear on your radio
• 41:50
  Speaker 2: all day, every day in the month of December yep.
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: But what you weren't there for, or you might not
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: have been there for, is what me and Tom were
• 41:57
  Speaker 2: there for, which is the day one releases of these things.
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, And.
• 42:02
  Speaker 2: That's what we that's what we kind of want to
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: talk to you about here, like it's it's it's it's
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: it's it's crazy, Like you know, we can talk about
• 42:09
  Speaker 2: on this segment about how how and this is true? Tom,
• 42:12
  Speaker 2: we remember the first time a Panini was brought into
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: this country. Yeah, and people would be like, yeah, wow,
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: that's yeah, I kind of believe that, and then we
• 42:22
  Speaker 2: turn around and go like, oh, by the way, we
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: remember when last Christmas wasn't a song people like, don't
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: don't compute, don't understand.
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, what are you talking about?
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: That's that's been chiseled and rock since day one?
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: Not kiss yep yep.
• 42:37
  Speaker 2: Now you're a little younger than me, Tom, a little bit.
• 42:40
  Speaker 2: But you have what I have, which is older siblings
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: which may have bought a little bit more purchase into
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: these things before your time. If an older sibling was
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: playing them.
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: In the house, well it was I remember there like
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: the radio I just have have. The radio was always on,
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: especially company around the Christmas like it was all always on. Yes,
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: MTV hadn't exploded. At the time, MTV was.
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: Not a thing, so we don't like if we heard
• 43:06
  Speaker 2: these things as five, six, seven, eight and ten year olds,
• 43:10
  Speaker 2: we either heard it on the radio, on the beat box,
• 43:13
  Speaker 2: on the whatnot, on top of the pops, or in
• 43:17
  Speaker 2: every shop you went in.
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: I remember that was telling you about it. I've been
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: coerced by you know, like every child when the aunties
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: or whatever call over that it was get up and
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: sing the song. Go on, get up, and go on,
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: get up and sing the song. And you too, get up.
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: And I remember Cliff Richard's mistle toe on wine, that
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: one mistletne wine.
• 43:38
  Speaker 2: I've got that on the list here totally, I know
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: for a fact.
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: And I would have liked to have seen what we
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: didn't have Camp Corriders my only American cousins and wealthy
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: people at camp quarters back then. But it was the
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: I know for a fact, I mispronounced a load of it.
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: I didn't know.
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: I didn't know what mistle toe or wine was, do
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean? It was just becoming all
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: one word. But it was there was a round of applause.
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: It was like, well, that's amazing. Not a note in
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: my head, like I'm just giving a kid nailed it,
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: but it was big. I guess there was a wholesomeness
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: to the for Richard, and it's because he was you know,
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: he's quite religious and stuff like that. But that was
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: the song that just stuck out to me. It was like,
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: I don't even know where. I'm guessing it can only
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: be in the radio, the car radio and stuff like that,
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: driving just wherever we were driving down stuff. But I
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: knew enough of the words Tim prest these el.
• 44:31
  Speaker 2: Ones, Well, I've got I've got a list here go
• 44:34
  Speaker 2: on of about ten absolute slam dunk Christmas hits that
• 44:40
  Speaker 2: we lived through, yeah, before it got into the two thousands,
• 44:46
  Speaker 2: and what I believe happened, I'll spoil now what I
• 44:49
  Speaker 2: feel happened in the two thousands. For ten or twelve
• 44:52
  Speaker 2: straight years, Christmas was dominated by pop, idol, an X
• 44:56
  Speaker 2: factor whoever. That The final of that was in December
• 45:00
  Speaker 2: and the song was released and it became the Christmas
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: number one, and I feel it stole so much of
• 45:04
  Speaker 2: the oxygen for ten or fifteen years, like the number
• 45:07
  Speaker 2: one was just going to be whoever won X Factor
• 45:10
  Speaker 2: that year.
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: So of course you've diluted the media of big number.
• 45:14
  Speaker 2: One for Christmas, for Christmas, and it just became it
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: became like, well, I don't even I don't even need
• 45:18
  Speaker 2: to fucking find out who it is. And so one
• 45:21
  Speaker 2: of the Fortmans. So backwards again, we remember a time
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: Christmas songs were released with intent. Yeah, and the earliest
• 45:30
  Speaker 2: one I can remember being released in my time was
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: in nineteen eighty four, so I would have been, you know,
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: four years of age. But again I might missess it
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: was a couple of years old or so she might
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: have a little more heed in these things. And it
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: was wham, Last Christmas, right that I remember that coming out,
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: and what I remember of it tom very very strongly.
• 45:51
  Speaker 2: As a child, I don't know who fucking George Michael
• 45:54
  Speaker 2: was or anybody was, but I knew it was a
• 45:56
  Speaker 2: sad song, and it was a sad song in a
• 45:59
  Speaker 2: happy time. So remember being little going around on dog
• 46:01
  Speaker 2: shopping center to see Santi or whatnot, and Last Christmas
• 46:05
  Speaker 2: will come on and it very much didn't suit the
• 46:07
  Speaker 2: festive vibe of happiness and all this kind of thing,
• 46:10
  Speaker 2: with this very very sad mournful song of it being.
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: Love lost.
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: You're yeah, it did. It did not sit well with
• 46:21
  Speaker 2: Santa claus Is coming down, but you.
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: Know, like yeah, I mean at least they had the
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: good manners of putting in you know, to making it
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: a Christmas song. You know, it's like the argument like
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: is die heard a Christmas movie? Like but at least
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: this Christmas move But and I'm jumping forward not to
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: like the early nineties, just only to to to back
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: up your argument, what or how did East seventeens stay another.
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: Day like that?
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: And still to this day I could sing along to it,
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: I get no problem, could sing along to that song
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: right now. But that had not again was like lost love.
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: There's a lot of there's a lot of these things here,
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: like Frankie goes to Hollywood, which is the power of
• 47:05
  Speaker 2: love by Frankie goes to Hollywood. Nothing to do, nothing
• 47:08
  Speaker 2: even to do with Jesus, nothing else. Just was released
• 47:13
  Speaker 2: at Christmas time and got the robe of being a
• 47:15
  Speaker 2: so called Christmas all yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, but not
• 47:18
  Speaker 2: a jingle bell in it? But only what does have
• 47:21
  Speaker 2: a jingle bell in it? Tom released in air time
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: and it was so good that did it twice. Is
• 47:28
  Speaker 2: do they know it's Christmas? By band Aid? That came
• 47:31
  Speaker 2: out in our time again in nineteen eighty four. Now
• 47:33
  Speaker 2: I missed that the first time. I guess last Christmas
• 47:36
  Speaker 2: just stole all the oxygen for me. Band Aid not
• 47:40
  Speaker 2: so much. But I was there when it came back around.
• 47:42
  Speaker 2: This is what people forget. They did that again in
• 47:45
  Speaker 2: nineteen eighty nine with band Aid two with thirty different
• 47:48
  Speaker 2: singers and I had Jason Donovan and Kelly Minogan whatnot
• 47:51
  Speaker 2: in it, and I was all there for that.
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, see that was smart. You see, sometimes you can
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: like I've done this, doors wrote a decent joke, but
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: not having the you know your your body's your mouth's
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: right and checks your body can cash of scenario like
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: I'm going I need to park that because I bet
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: I could tell that better in the two years time.
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: And that's where you've come back to. Is like the
• 48:13
  Speaker 1: movie Frozen that was three years previous, died in this
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: fucking hole and then they went, no, we're onto something
• 48:20
  Speaker 1: here that let's go again. But so yeah, I'm the
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: very same. I would have been three on the first
• 48:26
  Speaker 1: band Aid, so would have passed me by. You know
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: what I mean, so you came around, you were the
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: right hight for all you could sing sing along to
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: your little hearts content.
• 48:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I got I gotta tell you, I gotta tell you.
• 48:36
  Speaker 2: Like me saying that I prefer band aid to the
• 48:38
  Speaker 2: band Aid one is like if you were to come
• 48:40
  Speaker 2: up to me and say, well, I prefer die Hard
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: to the die Hard one, I'll be like, I'm gonna
• 48:43
  Speaker 2: put my fucking thumbs through your eyes.
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: What are you talking about? Shut up?
• 48:46
  Speaker 2: As I go there, you go, What can I tell you?
• 48:48
  Speaker 2: What can I tell you?
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: It's the same thing on the different term. Sorry, nobody,
• 48:51
  Speaker 1: there's no argument there. Kids.
• 48:53
  Speaker 2: You roll into you, roll into nineteen eighty five. Tom,
• 48:56
  Speaker 2: we were there and this one, this one threw me, okay,
• 49:00
  Speaker 2: just like it, Just like, I'll explain why this one
• 49:03
  Speaker 2: through me. Merry Christmas everyone by shaking Stephens. Yeah, and
• 49:08
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you why that through me, because even as
• 49:11
  Speaker 2: a child, I felt that that was a much older
• 49:13
  Speaker 2: song than it was.
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: Do you know what fair play? Because I used to
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: mistake him actually shaking Stevens for somebody else. I don't
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: know why. I think there was another somebody else had
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: a Christmas song out around the same time.
• 49:28
  Speaker 2: More than that in a little second time. Don't spoil
• 49:30
  Speaker 2: him a big finish here body right?
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: Sorry, yeah, but Shake and Stevens.
• 49:34
  Speaker 2: Here's the thing. How would I explain to Shake and Stevens?
• 49:38
  Speaker 2: What if Elvis was British? Yeah, fifteen years after Elvis died.
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the hair blacker than a fucking Ravens wing.
• 49:47
  Speaker 2: And the knees going on the whole lot. And I
• 49:50
  Speaker 2: don't know, like if anybody was screaming for more Elvis
• 49:54
  Speaker 2: like ten fifteen years after he died. I mean that's
• 49:56
  Speaker 2: kind of like, you know, coming out with more Nirvana
• 49:58
  Speaker 2: sounding song in two thousand and nine.
• 50:02
  Speaker 1: You've missed the boat, Shake and Stevens, but there you go.
• 50:04
  Speaker 2: Apparently there was a big want in Britain in the
• 50:07
  Speaker 2: mid eighties while they were having minor strikes and poll
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: tax riots and the Falklands is on fire. Everybody turned
• 50:15
  Speaker 2: around and said, you know what, go on, Shake and Stevens,
• 50:17
  Speaker 2: get up there and fucking do a bit, Get up
• 50:19
  Speaker 2: there and sing about a green door people love. But
• 50:24
  Speaker 2: Merry Christmas. Everyone comes out on the dance floor. Two day, Tom,
• 50:28
  Speaker 2: you're out there. I'm sorry, Yeah, now here's one Tom.
• 50:35
  Speaker 2: I'm not going to go through all of these. Here's
• 50:38
  Speaker 2: one fire buddy that has particular special interests the people
• 50:42
  Speaker 2: of are Fair Island, and that is fairy Tale in
• 50:45
  Speaker 2: New York with the Pogues and Kirsty McCall. That came
• 50:48
  Speaker 2: out in nineteen eighty seven. Now, I would definitely have
• 50:53
  Speaker 2: been the right age for this. It was eighty seven,
• 50:55
  Speaker 2: was eighty seven, so I would have been seven. You'd
• 50:58
  Speaker 2: have been six turning seven six? Hey, I mean that buddy, right,
• 51:06
  Speaker 2: Maccoin's catching I told.
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: You that Jesus Christ. It's like but you know, like
• 51:11
  Speaker 1: there's there was to talk to another meme, Like it's
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: like every outlet when that song video comes on at home,
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: you know, or song comes on. You know, you know
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: how she died a horrific way to die. But you
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: know what, if you're gonna go go quick, that's the
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: way to do it. That's the way to do it.
• 51:27
  Speaker 2: Here's what I remember of fairy Tale in New York time.
• 51:30
  Speaker 2: Maybe you can come with me on this one here
• 51:31
  Speaker 2: now is this is the first time I became aware
• 51:36
  Speaker 2: of a Christmas number one being a thing that you
• 51:39
  Speaker 2: would strive for, that you like, you almost wanted to
• 51:42
  Speaker 2: win it. You wanted your people to win it. Up
• 51:45
  Speaker 2: to that point, I didn't really know or care much
• 51:47
  Speaker 2: about charts. I like songs and that was it. But
• 51:49
  Speaker 2: like that there was a prize, a Christmas prize to
• 51:52
  Speaker 2: go for, you know, suddenly became to mean a lot.
• 51:56
  Speaker 2: And I remember they made so much noise about this
• 51:58
  Speaker 2: because fairy Tale in New York by the Pogues and
• 52:01
  Speaker 2: Irish band with Irish affiliates and all this, so on
• 52:04
  Speaker 2: and so forth and so backwards. We were going to
• 52:07
  Speaker 2: win the World Cup of Music. We were going to
• 52:09
  Speaker 2: beat the Christmas number one on top of the pops,
• 52:12
  Speaker 2: and all we had to do was beat the petch
• 52:16
  Speaker 2: Up Boys doing a cover of Elvis Presley's Oh God,
• 52:24
  Speaker 2: what was it again?
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: The petch up Boys.
• 52:28
  Speaker 2: Sorry, I just had to get to it their little
• 52:29
  Speaker 2: I just took a second to get it. I had
• 52:31
  Speaker 2: literally sing the chorus of it always on my mind
• 52:33
  Speaker 2: with the patch Up Boys, which I have to tell you,
• 52:36
  Speaker 2: as a seven year old, I thought was an excellent song.
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean the petch Up Boys were good, and.
• 52:43
  Speaker 2: To this day I think is a great song. And
• 52:46
  Speaker 2: I've been to see the petch Up Boys and concert
• 52:47
  Speaker 2: and I've never been to see the Pogues concert. But
• 52:49
  Speaker 2: you know, fairy Tale in New York again a very
• 52:52
  Speaker 2: very sad song when you listen to it, and as
• 52:54
  Speaker 2: like a seven year old, yeah you know, you know
• 52:58
  Speaker 2: you took my dreams for me when I first found you,
• 53:01
  Speaker 2: and it's all very lonesome and whatnot. Yeah, I found
• 53:04
  Speaker 2: that to be a very sad song when it came
• 53:06
  Speaker 2: out first. But again we were experiencing this like before
• 53:09
  Speaker 2: Kirsten McCall, you know that's the hand over by a boat.
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: But I can remember, I can actually remember asking the
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: question can anybody be a singer?
• 53:26
  Speaker 2: I gotta tell you, as a seven year old, I
• 53:28
  Speaker 2: thought Shane McGowan was fucking terrifying.
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: You know. I just thought he with respect, he could
• 53:33
  Speaker 1: have been in the Nightmare before Christmas more than anything.
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: And on top of that, hadn't a note in his head,
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: not as many teeth as he had notes in his head.
• 53:44
  Speaker 2: I gotta tell you, for Shane mygown, nobody in the
• 53:46
  Speaker 2: world could sing like Shane McGown.
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: Make of that what you will, Yeah, okay, fair enough,
• 53:55
  Speaker 1: But at the same time, yeah.
• 53:58
  Speaker 2: Do you ever do you ever hear like bands like
• 54:00
  Speaker 2: Appletura and all the other thing and it's just like
• 54:05
  Speaker 2: and you're like, he's not singing. It's like, will you
• 54:07
  Speaker 2: do it? Okay, I can't, I suppose, but all right, yeah,
• 54:10
  Speaker 2: still I know, I know.
• 54:13
  Speaker 1: But there was a national pride in the fact that
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: because people forget, like, yes, we've done loads of cool
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: things and we're known worldwide. Now we've got a great
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: name for ourselves. But in nineteen eighty seven, living in Ireland,
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: we didn't think anybody knew anything about us at all,
• 54:31
  Speaker 1: and we hadn't done a whole pilon.
• 54:33
  Speaker 2: We hadn't even had Italian ninety at this stage.
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: No, we've done full on the world stage, have we?
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: We had a couple of Eurovision winner wins at that stage,
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: did we?
• 54:40
  Speaker 2: Maybe right? But that means were we Danny, Yes, But
• 54:43
  Speaker 2: I don't know that Johnny Logan that hit his hot
• 54:45
  Speaker 2: streak there yet.
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: I don't think he had. But at the same time
• 54:48
  Speaker 1: I think they So when you saw you were clasping it,
• 54:51
  Speaker 1: this is like, this will tell you where it's that
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: you're literally grasping at any scenario where it might win
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: us something on the world stage. I get the number
• 55:00
  Speaker 1: one with a fucking bleak song about two people who
• 55:04
  Speaker 1: kind of hate each other and one of those singers
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: can't actually sing at all. But you know what, it
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: was perfect though, because you know, there was a great
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: flight of the earls of all the Irish youth going
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: to New York in the eighties too, So I suppose
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: it was that, you know what I mean, we were
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: in sight seeing, tom, they were in sight seeing. Well
• 55:21
  Speaker 1: they're seeing sights all right there, but they were up
• 55:24
  Speaker 1: and down letters and horse and concrete and stuff. But
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: it was do you know, And still to this day,
• 55:29
  Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not a big big fan of the song,
• 55:31
  Speaker 1: never really never like it was. It didn't get me
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: going as a six year old, I'll be honest with you.
• 55:37
  Speaker 1: The sadness evolved it, but still to this day you're like,
• 55:41
  Speaker 1: it doesn't piss me off, but I do.
• 55:44
  Speaker 2: Love what I have to say, and it's like it's
• 55:46
  Speaker 2: one of my favorite songs, like a year round.
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: I was always a Chris Real if I was you know,
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: I just Chris Ree more so because typically if I'm
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: driving home from the middle and side or whatever which
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: used to be and listen to the actual radio before
• 55:59
  Speaker 1: pod customer thing, that would be the one where I
• 56:02
  Speaker 1: go I am.
• 56:03
  Speaker 2: Actually driving, I'm actually on top to toe and tailor.
• 56:06
  Speaker 2: And again not for nothing as well. We skipt by
• 56:08
  Speaker 2: him there. But Chris ree is driving home for Christmas. Yeah,
• 56:10
  Speaker 2: we were there for the first press of that as well.
• 56:13
  Speaker 1: I mean I wasn't fully ever sure what top the
• 56:15
  Speaker 1: tail and the headlights, but I wasn't driving at the
• 56:17
  Speaker 1: time either, so it was like interesting choice of lyrics.
• 56:19
  Speaker 2: There, christ Tom nineteen eighty seven. You were absolutely driving.
• 56:25
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you're fucking writer. I was.
• 56:29
  Speaker 2: I was driving fields for Christmas.
• 56:34
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure if there's any lights in the vehicles.
• 56:36
  Speaker 2: There you go. We got our. We got our by
• 56:39
  Speaker 2: the way. I don't know if we blew past it,
• 56:40
  Speaker 2: but we did not beat the patch up eyes. They
• 56:42
  Speaker 2: pipped the Pogues to number one, and that would lead
• 56:45
  Speaker 2: us on in another couple of the years when Shinead
• 56:48
  Speaker 2: O'Connor went to number one. But nothing compares to you,
• 56:51
  Speaker 2: and that was like the that was like the second swipe.
• 56:53
  Speaker 2: But no, it wasn't at Christmas or anything like that.
• 56:55
  Speaker 2: But I remember this thinking that there seemed to have
• 56:57
  Speaker 2: been a bit of a Catharsis in the country that
• 56:59
  Speaker 2: we didn't get there with the Poles, but she need
• 57:01
  Speaker 2: O'Connor got there, and what's that where you're gonna?
• 57:05
  Speaker 1: She neid?
• 57:05
  Speaker 2: What's that in your hand? That picture of the pope?
• 57:07
  Speaker 2: Where are you going with that?
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: Oh? Jesus said no, no, why would you do that? No,
• 57:13
  Speaker 1: we just had a number one in the in the UK.
• 57:17
  Speaker 2: You gotta fucking do her beloved pope like this. This
• 57:20
  Speaker 2: is nineteen ninety. Before Enton came out. We were like,
• 57:22
  Speaker 2: you're one hundred percent wrong. Give her another couple of years,
• 57:25
  Speaker 2: and we know she was a hundred percent right now, Tom,
• 57:27
  Speaker 2: next one I have on my list, you've mentioned it
• 57:30
  Speaker 2: already is Mistletoe and Wine by Cliff Richards, which is
• 57:33
  Speaker 2: nineteen eighty eight, which means we Tom was put up
• 57:35
  Speaker 2: there at seven years of age to sing a song
• 57:38
  Speaker 2: and wine.
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: Nipple.
• 57:43
  Speaker 2: And he had another one after the fact. I mention
• 57:45
  Speaker 2: it because it seems to have fallen off the radar.
• 57:47
  Speaker 2: He had another one called Savior's Day in nineteen ninety
• 57:50
  Speaker 2: not bangers, but I said I would mention them.
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: It'll still make I tell you, it'll still make a
• 57:55
  Speaker 1: Spotify playlist if you put on Christmas, I guarantee you.
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: If it's got like fifty songs in it from top
• 58:01
  Speaker 1: Christmas song Savior's Day will pop.
• 58:03
  Speaker 2: Up, will be right there, and the characters around that time. Yeah,
• 58:07
  Speaker 2: I felt like I needed to mention it because when
• 58:10
  Speaker 2: those two songs were released and went to number one
• 58:13
  Speaker 2: at Christmas and remained to this day stall warts of
• 58:17
  Speaker 2: the Christmas Library, Cliff Richards was like sixty two years
• 58:20
  Speaker 2: of age, stop as a fucking old ass man.
• 58:24
  Speaker 1: Going out and just like ready for the bus pass
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: like and he's still banging out work, just.
• 58:30
  Speaker 2: Banging out work, beaten too, unlimited to the Christmas number
• 58:33
  Speaker 2: one like boys, just smashing it, just living his best life.
• 58:38
  Speaker 2: And we as young men tom as young boys were
• 58:44
  Speaker 2: in the audience just going like, yeah, it's a good song.
• 58:47
  Speaker 2: Why wouldn't it fucking.
• 58:49
  Speaker 1: Whereas like this in this day and age, when would
• 58:53
  Speaker 1: you like to talk about a broad spectrum of people
• 58:55
  Speaker 1: that could get an opportunity to get to number one
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: with a new song?
• 58:59
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: Like Cliff Richard sixty two years of age? Is there
• 59:03
  Speaker 1: any sixty two year old artist right now?
• 59:04
  Speaker 2: BEG, pardon I forgot to carry the one he was
• 59:06
  Speaker 2: fifty ah.
• 59:07
  Speaker 1: Right, Well, okay, he's not that old.
• 59:10
  Speaker 2: He's not that old, you know, yeah, but like at
• 59:12
  Speaker 2: the same time as George Foreman coming back and winning
• 59:14
  Speaker 2: the world title, like it's true what happened, But to
• 59:17
  Speaker 2: do it do it twice like that, that's lightning in
• 59:19
  Speaker 2: a bottle. He did it twice, I mean today, not
• 59:22
  Speaker 2: in a way from Cliff Richard like he's he's to
• 59:25
  Speaker 2: do it fucking twice.
• 59:28
  Speaker 1: He didn't. After hitting that first one, he knew full
• 59:31
  Speaker 1: well mistle tone wine, He's like, I am mad.
• 59:34
  Speaker 2: Like he was, like, you know what, I can come
• 59:36
  Speaker 2: back again and make a better song with more God
• 59:41
  Speaker 2: in it.
• 59:41
  Speaker 1: Do you know what?
• 59:43
  Speaker 2: Good?
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: That's that's the sign of a real world champion. You
• 59:46
  Speaker 1: know what I mean? You can follow it up the
• 59:47
  Speaker 1: following I get another fucking went under your belt like
• 59:50
  Speaker 1: that is that's unreal. He could have gone to pasture
• 59:54
  Speaker 1: like all the rest of them, let's be honest, and
• 59:56
  Speaker 1: a hell of a lot of them, like the petch
• 59:59
  Speaker 1: Up boys with the the Elvis cover, like shneida' connor
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 1: with the Prince Am I right, Princess cover as Princess

  Speaker 2: But she didn't write it?
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 1: No, No, she did not.
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 2: But I don't believe Prince ever recorded it. That's what
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 2: done my homework on that show.
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 1: If we dug deep enough, it was probably a Dolly
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 1: parton one that she wrote on the way to Little
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 1: Do you know what I mean.
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 2: To get a klasmic corner a plasma cutter, So that
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 2: leads me to one of the last ones that I

• 1:00:30
  Speaker 2: bonus one fire, one of the last ones on the
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 2: This this is nineteen ninety four, so I would have
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 2: been coming into like a teenager, so it would have
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 2: been semi to cool for school. But like saying that
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 2: you were around for this when it was released first
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 2: is kind of like saying that you were there for
• 1:00:46

  Speaker 2: out now.
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 1: Like that was a huge hit.
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 2: It has to be said Tom, And it was I
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 2: believe one years ago to thirty one years ago, and
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 2: it was like a day one banger, like everybody when
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 2: they heard it. I remember being there. I was playing
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 2: on the radio. Tom, I heard it the first time
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 2: on the radio with the rest of the world, and
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 2: everybody just sort of said themselves, Yeah, you're going to
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 2: be hearing that in forty years time.
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 1: Well here's the thing. And I whether you liked it
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 1: or not, you were like, well, and why do you
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 1: like Mariah Carey or not? Right? Or why do you
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 1: like that song? You're here we go again. I no,
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 1: not not to do shame like down any deaths. You know,
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 1: he wrote a lot of cool songs and stuff like that,
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 1: but you're kind of fucking stealing the living there. Liked
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: when you can't you're a singer, but you can't actually
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 1: sing Mariah carry much like Whitney Houston's like, can't sing
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 1: the balls off a song. And you're like that, No,
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 1: that's a that's a song. Or listen, listen to the
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 1: note she can hold, Like that's a fucking singer.
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 2: She could sing half as good as she sings and
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 2: still be twice as good as everybody else. Yeah, give
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 2: it to her. Tell you that I was there on
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 2: the cold face of it all as a fourteen year
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 2: old boy, and I can tell you all now that
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 2: I thought Mariah Carey was fucking gorgeous because.
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 1: There was no thought about it. She It's a factual thing.
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 1: She was a roomless crush, like she just.
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 2: Lose like whatever about like like just gorgeous woman. I
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 2: know these days people kind of look at her as
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 2: being this sort of like you know, stereotypical glitz gammer
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 2: diva kind of thing.
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 1: Do you know what in the case thirty years ago,
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 1: she was stone cold fox. And here's the thing, like,
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 1: if you are born with that much talent, you skyrock
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 1: at the top. You you end up singing a song
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 1: that is going to be till the end, till the
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 1: apocalypse takes the world is going to be a Christmas stalwart.
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 1: You can see not excusing, no, but you can kind
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 1: of see see how you're like how you're going to
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 1: be a bit of a fucking do you know what,
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 1: a bit of a lead because actually you can walk
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 1: into any room and go, I'm a legend. Now you're
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 1: fucking that. She walks into the rooms and goes, I'm
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 1: a fucking legend.
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 2: When she walks into the room and says, it's too
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 2: warming here, open the window. People are like, yes, miss
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 2: carry will open all the now, he says, know when
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 2: the temperatures to your Like now you said it, yeah,
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 2: Whereas you and I walk into the room and goes,
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 2: is very warming here, take your fucking jump her off
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 2: your chipper bathtard.
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 1: There's the difference, and you can see how that would
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 1: lead you down a slippery path. Apparently she was on
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 1: the Grim Norton Show and she wanted like three fucking
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 1: a whole blanket dressing rooms, and one was just for
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 1: plugging in her phone to leave the phone charging there.
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 1: Do you know what I mean? Like you can do
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 1: that when you get a Christmas number, Like there's Christmas
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 1: number ones that have kind of come and sailed by
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 1: during the height the height of it, Like you know
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 1: what I mean, there's a few they'll make the list.
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 1: But you're like, uh yeah, Grant, like there's a few,
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 1: you know that. Like I said, he's seventeen and stuff.
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 1: You're like, ah, right, okay, he's seventeen.
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 2: And the Spice Girls and all this kind of thing.
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 2: It came and it went and it's nobody's favorite, But
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 2: like we were there for some absolute stone cold bangers,
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 2: including the last song on the list here, Tom, which
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 2: I feel you were heading towards earlier, if you knew
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 2: it or not. When I was talking Shake and Stevens.
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 2: There was another song released that year that was and
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 2: remains to this day to be one of my favorite
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 2: Christmas songs.
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 1: Go On Is it the Boss? No? Oh it's not.
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 2: Although I do love Bruce Springsteen's version of Santa Claus's
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 2: Coming to Town, it wasn't exactly like I hadn't heard it.
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, fair enough, fair enough.
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 2: All I'm going to mention is another rock and roll
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 2: Christmas by Gary Glitter. Yeah, an absolute stone cold out
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 2: of the park bangers that came out in nineteen eighty
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 2: four and was played every Christmas over and over again
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 2: and loved and sung and done in karaoke and dance
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 2: floors went mad when it came on up to about
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 2: nineteen ninety six.
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 1: I think this game's hill grind and hole there.
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 2: When everybody kind of went, oh, what's that on your
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 2: hard drive? Mister Glitter?
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 1: What you got there?
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 2: Buddy?
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 1: So? What was his song again?
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 2: It's another rocking roll Christmas, another Christmas rock and roll.
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 1: To be honestly, I think I pretty much heard I
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 1: heard that in the hard Rush this morning.
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 2: Honestly, every now and there's out and now and then
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 2: it's like it's like a message from the resistance. It's
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 2: like we're just going to play it and not give
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 2: them any money for her. Because Gary Glitter, very much
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 2: like Andrew Mountbatten, was outed as a big nons like, yeah,
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 2: proper order check is hard drive nonsen and it's currently
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 2: as best as I can understand it, in jail in
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 2: Thailand for further separate nonsense.
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 1: Isn't oh man, if he's in Thailand, Oh, he's having
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 1: a tremendous time. He's absolutely because he's a hundredth man
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 1: to sell. It's a rough goal for him. I can
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 1: tell you what. He is not glittering much Christmas? Can
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 1: you oh, can you imagine.
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 2: That that was the joke for the longest time as
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 2: they're hanging glitter for Christmas?
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 1: Well, can you imagine how the lads, the Thaie lads
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 1: are going to town at him are coming up around now?
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean?
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 2: Everything that was bad at Christmas, that was a rush
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 2: on at Christmas, but again as a close to the bit, Yes,
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 2: we have seen some wonderful things come as we pass
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 2: through the falcon of life, but we've also seen heroes fall,
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 2: people get out of as being nonsense and all this
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 2: kind of thing. I mean, I dare say, we'll have
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 2: to come back to this list just over again. A
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 2: couple of buy on this list, Tom, But to this
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 2: day I'm like, how.
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 1: Did you escape?
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 2: Operation you tree?
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah? How did you get by? There's a few were
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 1: probably drinking from that fountain. I'd say, you know what
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 1: I mean.
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 2: But look, we'll but for the time being we'll enjoy them.
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 2: We can't, you know, we can't in good conscience endorse
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 2: Carrie Glitter's rock and Roll Christmas. Watch it on YouTube.
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 2: He doesn't get a penny from it.
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 1: No, no he doesn't. You're right he doesn't.
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 2: Or like, you know, go to America where they'll just
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 2: play it at a football game. They still play a
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 2: rock and roll on football games. They put rock and roll,
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 2: rock and roll, Hey, rock and roll. They play that

• 1:07:53
  Speaker 2: what the hell.
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 1: I wish there was more of the now. I know
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 1: I'm kicking back a year or two here, a bit early,
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 1: but I wish there was a bit more of the funny,
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 1: silly ones, I know, a lot of the more heartfelt
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 1: and all the rest. So I did honorable mention. I
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 1: always like Grandma got run over by rein there, But
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 1: that was just me as a child. I loved bold
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 1: things like that. So when a song came along like
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 1: Grandma got run over by a rein there, I got
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 1: a real kick out of it. As a child, I
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 1: was like, yeah, that's that's a.
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 2: Child that was run over by a reindeer. Oh yeah,

  Speaker 1: Struck a chord. Never understood little drummer boy. Never understood that.
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 2: I know. And that did come out in their time,
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 2: That came out in eighty two, I dare say I
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 2: was just I wasn't you know, child Crosby.
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 1: It's an old ass song, but like Bowie and and Being,
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 1: Crosby came together and sang it in the eighties. But
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 1: I don't I never fucking understood what was going on.
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 1: I don't know, but I don't mind it in the background.
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 1: When I can, you know, topping and tailing fucking headlights.
