I hope they are. 
My guest this week is none other

41
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:28,240
than one of the sharpest 
comedians in Ireland. 

42
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:32,960
This guy has been killing it for
a long, long time and he 

43
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:34,800
continues to go from strength to
strength. 

44
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:38,200
One of the sharpest writers. 
You might have seen him on the 

45
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:40,760
Blame Game. 
You've seen him do stand up. 

46
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,200
You've seen him on panel shows, 
quiz shows, which we're going to

47
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,320
talk about. 
He just killed him on the chase.

48
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,800
But he's just a fantastic stand 
up and a dream podcast guest 

49
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,480
because we could have done five 
hours in this episode. 

50
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,920
Please enjoy this episode of the
Tea With Me podcast with my 

51
00:02:55,920 --> 00:02:57,440
guest. 
And I've only had him on Zoom 

52
00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:01,400
before, so now it's the Flash 
version of Neil Delamere. 

53
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,800
Neil, your car is outside. 
You're allowed an hour of park 

54
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:07,120
and we're going to record for 
but not. 

55
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,120
Yeah, yeah. 
Is there a better feeling than 

56
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:12,000
when you go back to your car and
there's no tech? 

57
00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:14,720
Yeah. 
Oh man, You just feel like 

58
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:16,880
you've gotten your life back. 
One over on the man. 

59
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,160
I'm not particularly rebellious 
person and I don't know who the 

60
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,160
man is, but I've got one over on
him. 

61
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:23,400
You have a fair. 
It's essentially free money, 

62
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:24,480
isn't it? 
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 

63
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:26,800
I did it this morning. 
I was on Q radio this morning 

64
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:30,480
with our friend Andrew Ryan and 
left the corner loading Bay 

65
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,040
straight back and I knew, I knew
they haven't got me. 

66
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:37,280
But it makes you, it gives you a
false confidence that you could,

67
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:39,200
you could go too far with that. 
You know, you could be like, 

68
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:42,600
I've never tried heroin, but I 
think I'd be alright. 

69
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:47,440
What a jump that is from code 
slightly over in a loading bed 

70
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,760
to, you know, this gag. 
I mean, Skag is next for me. 

71
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,360
Surely there's some steps you've
just blown. 

72
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,360
Gateway drug, basically you've 
just legalised cannabis. 

73
00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,560
That's what you've done there. 
It's because everybody always 

74
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:01,120
goes. 
Cannabis is the gateway drug to 

75
00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:02,160
Skype. 
Chris is actually. 

76
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:03,400
But it's loading base. 
It's loading. 

77
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:09,480
It's slightly over here. 
I was going to train spotting 4 

78
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:13,840
needs to be lads like opening 
scene is a it's a lad just 

79
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,720
strung out all together and then
the back story is then just 

80
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:18,000
gone. 
I'll be fine. 

81
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,760
Yeah, we're like a Chinko Cento.
Member Chinko, CentOS. 

82
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:26,560
I do remember, yeah, of course. 
I remember a Volkswagen Polo, 

83
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:28,560
which is a tiny car, but that 
says. 

84
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:31,480
Yeah, where? 
Where my dad lived, where I grew

85
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:35,320
up, and when you drove in, there
was always a polo and it was 

86
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,120
like a dark green. 
And the guy who must have 

87
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:40,280
cleaned it like every week, it 
was spotless. 

88
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:44,200
And I remember thinking if I 
could have that car at some 

89
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:47,480
point in my life I don't have. 
And I think some point I'll get 

90
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:48,440
it. 
I. 

91
00:04:48,840 --> 00:04:51,200
Sometimes I think that about 
things in my childhood and I go 

92
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,720
everything will be alright if I 
get buy something from my child.

93
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:56,080
That's why I buy all football 
tops. 

94
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:59,840
I go because it's nostalgic and 
I go that's something I wanted 

95
00:04:59,840 --> 00:05:01,720
as a child and that will solve 
anything. 

96
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,600
And has worries. 
And has that Volkswagen Polo 

97
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:06,800
solves the massive black hole in
your heart? 

98
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,080
Well, haven't bought it yet, so 
I think, oh, OK, it will. 

99
00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:10,880
I think. 
You think everything, Yeah, like

100
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:12,640
the Crohn's disease I have is 
irreversible? 

101
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:14,440
Not if I buy that polo, it's 
not. 

102
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:16,320
I'd imagine that. 
It'll be fine that. 

103
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,720
Polo at this stage with a 
gearbox is irreversible. 

104
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:21,000
So cheap, it'll be so cheap 
neither. 

105
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,280
Yeah, it would. 
I am. 

106
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:25,600
My dad is a tiny car. 
There's a lot to be said for a 

107
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:27,200
tiny car. 
And my dad's an older man. 

108
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:31,400
So you get to a point where and 
they older people, in my 

109
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,320
experience, go, I don't need a 
big car anymore. 

110
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:34,520
I want a smaller car. 
Yeah. 

111
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:36,080
And it makes complete sense for 
him. 

112
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:39,280
And I got, I've got a lovely 
insert. 

113
00:05:39,280 --> 00:05:42,000
I'd forgotten what getting your 
car service is like outside of a

114
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,160
city. 
So when I go into Dublin, I go, 

115
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:46,040
can I have a car while you're 
servicing my car? 

116
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:47,280
Because I might have to go 
somewhere. 

117
00:05:47,280 --> 00:05:49,840
I'm on tour, whatever. 
And they go and it's all some 

118
00:05:49,840 --> 00:05:52,760
guy going, yeah, give us your 
insurance details, give us your 

119
00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,000
cover, give us all that sort of 
stuff. 

120
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:56,640
You know, we're going to have to
ring your insurance company. 

121
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:58,960
We're going to switch it over 
for the day, gives you credit 

122
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,760
card details. 
I got my dad's car service and 

123
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:04,440
awfully where I'm from, right? 
And I walked in and I said, can 

124
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:06,120
I have a car while you're 
servicing my dad's car? 

125
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,960
And the man didn't look at me. 
He didn't ask me my name and he 

126
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:11,520
didn't ask me for a driver's 
licence. 

127
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:13,640
He reached behind. 
He was doing a crossword. 

128
00:06:13,840 --> 00:06:16,720
He reached behind them. 
He grabbed the random set of 

129
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:21,720
keys from a hook, hoofed him at 
me and said see what they start 

130
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:27,920
and not to just press, but it 
could have been it could have 

131
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:31,320
been a transit, it could have 
been a disability scooter a. 

132
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:32,960
Corvette. 
A Corvette. 

133
00:06:33,280 --> 00:06:35,160
I don't know if you've been to 
tell them more, but it wasn't 

134
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,760
going to be a Corvette, but 
imagine if you drop it could 

135
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,320
have been someone else's car 
that had been dropped in for a 

136
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:42,320
service. 
I think this is a this is a 

137
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:46,480
South of the border laid back 
style which I experienced when I

138
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:48,320
went. 
I did the Cork tour show 

139
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,560
recently but yeah, put in them 
something. 

140
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:54,840
I need a city centre car park. 
Go in the one and it and it's 

141
00:06:54,840 --> 00:06:56,320
just off the river. 
Yeah. 

142
00:06:56,760 --> 00:07:00,560
You give them your key and the 
guy just puts it on a hook. 

143
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,320
And then when you go back you 
get yeah. 

144
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,720
And I said, I said, if you don't
mind me asking, I was like, why 

145
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:07,600
do you need my keys? 
He goes, I'll have to move it at

146
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,520
some point. 
So they they, they will just put

147
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:12,840
it in a different place. 
This won't happen. 

148
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,080
Like, we won't give it up here. 
No. 

149
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:16,960
Like on the side of the. 
You think that's just for that? 

150
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:22,360
You stolen so many cars from 
people from Belfast. 

151
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,480
Somewhat it's like an older 
model they gave me back, so I 

152
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:27,080
don't know. 
Imagine if you give you back to 

153
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,440
Volkswagen Polo from your youth.
I would love that. 

154
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:32,160
Imagine if when you drive in the
scan, not just your car but your

155
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:35,560
memories. 
It's just an AI imaging. 

156
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,760
Have you ever bought anything 
from what you wanted when you 

157
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:40,520
were growing up? 
For me it's football tops. 

158
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:42,000
Is it so? 
What football do you have? 

159
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,680
Like you. 
So you're too young for 1982? 

160
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:48,280
Sort of, yeah. 1986 too young 
for. 

161
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:51,720
That I was born idiot, right? 
So it's all mid 90s, early mid 

162
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:53,320
90s. 
I'm thinking Northern Ireland 

163
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,240
Subs OK, so mid OK, So what the 
United. 

164
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:59,280
Tops anything like I have a like
the collect, I have a ridiculous

165
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,080
collection. 
I have a 1980 and this is across

166
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:06,560
the divide. 
I have a 1982 replica, yes, won 

167
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:12,000
two eh of the awfully jersey 
that we last won the eh all 

168
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:15,480
Ireland in. 
So I mean, that's just retro 

169
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:16,560
stuff is just kind of cool. 
Doesn't. 

170
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:19,240
Yeah, it's a beautiful jersey. 
I didn't know how much you were 

171
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,640
into the GA until we did 
Kilkenny Festival. 

172
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:24,000
Yeah. 
It was the big gala show. 

173
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,440
Yeah. 
And you just, like, ran from a 

174
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:27,360
game. 
Yeah. 

175
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:29,280
So. 
You should have been a rapping 

176
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:30,120
shirt. 
I didn't know if you were 

177
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:32,640
playing it like this. 
Why, thank you. 

178
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:37,559
I'm clearly in great Nick. 
OK, let me explain this. 

179
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,320
So when you start off doing 
comedy, you go, I want to do 

180
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:42,000
this cake and that giggle, that 
cake. 

181
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:46,320
And John Cleary, who people will
know has a brilliant observation

182
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:48,080
and that it starts off well, do 
that cake. 

183
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,080
If I do 10 minutes there, then 
maybe they'll give me 10 minutes

184
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:52,960
and then I can do 50 minutes. 
And after a while doing it, John

185
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:57,440
goes, if I go on early, I could 
be back in the car for yeah, the

186
00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:01,280
shop opens until midnight and I 
could be listening to 1980s 

187
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:04,160
classics on his drive home. 
It's like, so there's an element

188
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:06,160
of you, you put company in its 
place. 

189
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:11,760
So, umm, I'm, I'm, I'm not that 
into GA, but I feel I don't rage

190
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,680
level start doing well. 
And they don't do that well that

191
00:09:14,680 --> 00:09:16,280
often because it's a small 
county. 

192
00:09:16,680 --> 00:09:18,440
Umm. 
And so when we did Kay Kennedy 

193
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:22,920
together, so 10 years ago, 15 
years ago, I've gone give me all

194
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:25,160
the gigs. 
They gave me four or five gigs, 

195
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:26,480
and I'm like, can I do them all 
on Monday? 

196
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:28,160
And they said yes. 
And I said OK. 

197
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,760
And then I rang them because we 
got to the final, which was in 

198
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:31,560
Kilkenny. 
Yeah. 

199
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:34,280
So I did the first one in 
Langton's and did 10 minutes in 

200
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:38,320
Langton's and then ran across 
the road, took off my top and 

201
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,240
put on an awfully jersey. 
So I'd like to. 

202
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:44,320
Very Irish Superman, yeah. 
Like the worst, we're a phone 

203
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:48,200
box for Christ's sake and and 
put on an awfully judge and went

204
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:51,600
in and watched the the young 
lads, the the under 20s with the

205
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:53,720
all Ireland and then ran and did
four more gigs. 

206
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,640
Physically run. 
Physically run, yeah, because. 

207
00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:59,200
The gig we did was in the middle
of nowhere, like it was right 

208
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:02,400
out of the time. 
In a Mart, Yeah, it's actually a

209
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:04,080
Mars, Yeah, and normally you can
smell. 

210
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:06,840
Yeah, yeah. 
No, it was genuinely in a 

211
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:08,680
cattle. 
Yeah, yeah, which is kind of 

212
00:10:08,680 --> 00:10:12,240
bizarre, but yeah. 
And it's a couple of like those 

213
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,560
gigs can run over and not 
normally. 

214
00:10:14,560 --> 00:10:16,200
Sometimes you're like, come on, 
come on, come on. 

215
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,440
I'm not shit. 
Was just one of the other. 

216
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:21,120
Knock yourself out. 
You want to do 25 minutes? 

217
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:23,440
Look at this. 
Do you know what, Neil? 

218
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:26,480
Your man after my own heart 
because I also I can't drink 

219
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:27,760
instant coffee. 
Can you know? 

220
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:29,400
It needs to be a we. 
Thank you, Tony. 

221
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:34,400
Thank you very much, Tony. 
It needs to be like a proper me.

222
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:36,600
It really coffee. 
Yeah, because I'm not a big 

223
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:39,560
coffee guy, but I need like I 
would have to have an American 

224
00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:41,160
from a machine. 
Yeah. 

225
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:42,840
You know, as opposed to like a 
person. 

226
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:49,040
I don't drink people coffees. 
I don't think people coffees I 

227
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:51,640
like. 
I like it like AI type coffee. 

228
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:53,640
Really, you don't want any sort 
of human interaction. 

229
00:10:53,680 --> 00:10:55,960
No, no, no, no, no. 
This is selecting you're in, 

230
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:57,760
yeah. 
Sippers, let me take a quick 2nd

231
00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:00,360
to tell you that we are 
sponsored by our friends at Nord

232
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,080
VPN. 
What's a VPN chain? 

233
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:04,320
It's a virtual private network. 
I don't need any. 

234
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:06,600
What do you call? 
I don't need messages on screen 

235
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:07,800
down. 
You turn that screen off. 

236
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:12,200
I am passionate about Nord VPN. 
Listen, say you're in Starbucks 

237
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,840
or any coffee place. 
First of all, you should be in a

238
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,480
tea tea shop. 
But if you're not, you go there 

239
00:11:17,560 --> 00:11:20,200
you go, they go. 
Do you want to use our network 

240
00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:23,280
or Wi-Fi? 
Well, you can, but hackers and 

241
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:24,920
pirates are going to steal your 
online. 

242
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:28,240
You're on the high seas of 
online privacy there. 

243
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:32,680
When you have Nord VPN, which is
what you, you do, You download 

244
00:11:32,680 --> 00:11:35,720
the app, you put Nord VPN on 
your phone, but you go, Oh well,

245
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:39,320
what about my iPod? 
And I first of all, you have an 

246
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:42,360
iPod, you fucking weirdo. 
Now they go, what about my iPod 

247
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:46,720
and my wife's phone? 
And you won account 10 devices. 

248
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:50,240
You are secured, your data is 
protected. 

249
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:51,880
And also here's the coolest 
thing about it. 

250
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:55,120
You can be anywhere in the world
and tell your phone or your 

251
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:57,280
device, hey, I'm actually in 
this part of the world. 

252
00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,520
And they'll go, well, great. 
Here's all the content you can 

253
00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:00,760
access in this part of the 
world. 

254
00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:07,400
If you are from Boris Ansari 
down South real place and you 

255
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,960
want to watch RTE player because
you want to watch what you show 

256
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:11,760
on TV, What's it show on TV down
South? 

257
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:15,640
Two Johnnies, the two Johnnies 
you could be in Cambodia and 

258
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:18,720
Cambodia Wi-Fi is going no, no, 
we don't have that. 

259
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,320
But but but no VPN. 
There we go. 

260
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:23,480
You're watching the two Johnnies
lock in machine thought episode 

261
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:26,720
where I'm doing stand up on it. 
It's a great time. 

262
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:32,600
Plus we have two free months for
four months for free on A2 year 

263
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,520
plan. 
Yeah, that's actually right. 

264
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:39,640
Go to nordvpn.com and use the 
code slash T with me. 

265
00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:44,800
nordvpn.com/T with me. 
That's nordvpn.com/T with me. 

266
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:48,840
The link is in the description. 
Back to the episode, this is the

267
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:52,040
eh, the second time you've been 
on the plug you did is we did a 

268
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:55,160
Zoom pod and so it's all hard to
keep track of what you did 

269
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:58,080
during that time and what you 
were and. 

270
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:01,400
Yeah, it's really, really weird.
I mean, when we talked first, I 

271
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:05,280
just put my first SSE ever on, 
and mainly because a lot of you 

272
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:06,400
guys are donor and it seemed 
like. 

273
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,640
But I did because, umm, I was 
covered. 

274
00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:10,920
Yeah. 
Wherever he's going. 

275
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:12,280
A bit mad. 
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 

276
00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:13,920
And I want, I want something to 
look forward to. 

277
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:15,200
Yeah. 
It's the same reason I did. 

278
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:18,000
I did fit families. 
Ireland's fits families, right? 

279
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:19,040
Celebrity fits families. 
Yeah. 

280
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:23,720
And umm, I did it because I'd 
never normally do it. 

281
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:25,480
I said I'd have to train for 
that. 

282
00:13:25,680 --> 00:13:27,320
Yeah. 
So I don't know if I told you 

283
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:28,280
the story. 
No, no, no. 

284
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:30,280
So. 
Would you say did you have a 

285
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:32,480
like were you someone who up at 
that point? 

286
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:34,520
We did you run? 
A bit of training, yeah, a bit 

287
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:36,040
of stuff, yeah, but nothing kind
of major. 

288
00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:40,160
So, so basically this show is 
normally you have a kind of a 

289
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:43,800
nuclear family and it's, you 
know, mum and dad used to have 

290
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:45,720
to be within the family. 
And then the kind of celeb 

291
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:47,480
version is very loosely 
termined. 

292
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:49,800
And you can you can have anybody
right, that you're related to. 

293
00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:52,560
So you go on and you do kind of 
an assault courses for charity, 

294
00:13:52,560 --> 00:13:55,680
whatever and them. 
So my secret weapon was going to

295
00:13:55,680 --> 00:13:57,960
be a Claire hurler. 
So he's my cousin, but he's 

296
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:02,360
senior hurler for Claire. 
So you're talking kind of nearly

297
00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:04,880
professional levels of 
athleticism, like an absolute 

298
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:07,040
beast. 
The joke I was said to him is, 

299
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:10,720
is resting heartbeat is 24 beats
a day. 

300
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:15,160
So like on the hour, every hour,
you can't tell if it's a 

301
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,840
heartbeat or Netflix is just 
doing on television, right? 

302
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:20,080
So he's a beast. 
Like you have to get a diesel 

303
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:23,520
Fitbit. 
So we messed with him and he saw

304
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:25,480
a week before it happens. 
He rings me because I can't do 

305
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:26,720
it. 
I'm after smashing my knee up. 

306
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,680
You're on club hurling training.
So with the week's notice, we've

And she knew. 

327
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:39,680
And then she also knew that 
she'd have to go with whatever 

328
00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:43,240
name I gave her for and I I was 
like Latoya Shaniqua. 

329
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:45,480
I've been watching these videos,
like four of these. 

330
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:50,000
All different ethnicities. 
She's name and I was like, oh 

331
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:53,560
God, what am I going to do? 
So umm, yeah, it was my 

332
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:55,280
crackdown and we went up against
those two guys. 

333
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:57,120
You know those two happy pair 
fellas. 

334
00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:59,160
Yeah, yeah. 
So they were in the fight. 

335
00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:00,720
They're always in the water. 
What? 

336
00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:02,800
They're always in the water. 
They're always up, yeah. 

337
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:04,760
And I just look at a. 
Whole dip and stuff, yeah. 

338
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,800
Yeah, you're like, you just 
don't want to get up against 

339
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:09,280
those guys. 
But they don't have that meat 

340
00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:10,840
strength. 
No, they don't. 

341
00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:11,520
They're. 
Vegans. 

342
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:15,640
Proteins and none of that. 
Sirloin strength, yeah. 

343
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:18,760
Yeah, yeah. 
The Angel just injected meat 

344
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:20,960
trend. 
So they were, they were. 

345
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:22,240
You want to see them, so the 
first thing. 

346
00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:25,400
I'd say they're nippy. 
They are very nippy and they're 

347
00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:28,240
off doing fucking hand stands in
the corner and all that site. 

348
00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:30,880
Should they get up at 6:00 in 
the morning, have a wank in the 

349
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:32,240
sea? 
That's like, you know what I 

350
00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:35,760
mean? 
You can't, you can't compete 

351
00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,200
with those lads. 
So they were like you want to 

352
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:41,160
see them first thing we have to 
go through the bog, the way to 

353
00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:43,440
the bog and these lads are just 
like, it's just like you're home

354
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:47,320
with Steven. 
It's like, it's like granola and

355
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:50,400
they just flew through it 
because I'm from the Midlands. 

356
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:53,000
I'm trying to harvest the bog 
and turn it into forgets and set

357
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:57,160
up a small power station. 
It's it's, it's more I'm like, 

358
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:01,640
don't you like the sunrise to 
get your sunrise be. 

359
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:03,160
Awful. 
The wank in the sea. 

360
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:06,000
What do you mean it would be? 
So. 

361
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:09,160
You're from surely? 
Surely. 

362
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:12,079
Never wanked in the sea as well 
as I'm. 

363
00:17:12,079 --> 00:17:14,240
I'm circumcised. 
You can't. 

364
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:16,040
You can't just as and when. 
Can you not? 

365
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:19,680
So you leave, so you won't? 
You don't mind that loading me 

366
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:22,400
at any point but you? 
I never said I wanked in the 

367
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:24,560
loading, no. 
No, I was going towards a load 

368
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:27,520
joke. 
Well fine, you interrupt, it's 

369
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:29,960
fine. 
So. 

370
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:33,040
So you've never you've never 
looked at a ferry and cracked 

371
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:42,960
one, looked at piano. 
I just kind of, I wish I was 

372
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:44,080
there. 
Go to the match. 

373
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:46,320
No. 
So you did. 

374
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:49,000
Like go back to this night so. 
Did they start and the happy 

375
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:53,520
Paraguay start? 
And sounds like a fight, by the 

376
00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:56,240
way, just. 
And they did they go first? 

377
00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:57,440
Did they go first? 
Yeah, I think so. 

378
00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,200
They were very good. 
So we were just like, just don't

379
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:01,400
go out first. 
There's four teams, just don't 

380
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:06,320
go for OK, and so stem it was 
umm, as somebody went oh, a 

381
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,120
model, eh, eh, growing your 
gallon. 

382
00:18:09,120 --> 00:18:13,400
I was in Miss Ireland and I was 
like, Oh God, Oh, you know what 

383
00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:15,360
does she might please make it be
like walk it. 

384
00:18:15,360 --> 00:18:17,520
I didn't I didn't tell me the 
name to say the model. 

385
00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:20,640
I was like, please, that'd be 
like walk in baths that you 

386
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:22,600
models. 
Yeah, stair lifts or something 

387
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:24,640
like that. 
One of those older lady models. 

388
00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:28,280
I was like hoping for because 
otherwise models can be really 

389
00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:30,320
fit, you know, and her family 
were really fit and then she 

390
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:32,440
made Quinn and the comedian and 
her family as well. 

391
00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:34,120
So it was great bit of crack 
have to. 

392
00:18:34,120 --> 00:18:35,440
Say, how did you get on 
personally? 

393
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:40,000
Eh, I got hung a good but think 
about a bog because I don't know

394
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:41,920
this training and weighted 
restaurant on us. 

395
00:18:42,120 --> 00:18:44,680
Bog is down to how tall you are 
actually right. 

396
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:47,080
So Rosie was great because 
because a bug. 

397
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:48,760
Because if you're tall, you're 
right of it. 

398
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:52,400
Yeah, what a bog might be to you
if you're 62, might be to your 

399
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:53,760
knee, yeah. 
But if it's. 

400
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:58,000
If you're done weight or don't 
you need to die doing Yeah, I 

401
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:00,040
need to. 
I need to be the films you see 

402
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:03,040
in the last 10 years. 
It's like, you know, AB Avatar, 

403
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:04,840
you know, he's actually scanned 
in. 

404
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:09,400
He died or 10/10/12 years ago. 
He's in a bargain whistle. 

405
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:14,760
It's bizarre, yeah, but it's 
weird because they don't train 

406
00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:17,960
for that. 
Did you continue treat like that

407
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:20,320
level? 
Not that level maybe, but you 

408
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:22,320
know, that's something like you 
probably do the training for 

409
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:23,400
that. 
Yeah, intense. 

410
00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:25,720
And you say to yourself like. 
Well, I've been just fit for. 

411
00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:26,960
I'll keep. 
I'll keep doing this. 

412
00:19:27,120 --> 00:19:29,880
Yeah, I did a bit now I kind of 
did bits and pieces and stuff. 

413
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:32,880
Eh, there's nothing like the 
prospects of getting embarrassed

414
00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:33,840
on national television. 
Yeah. 

415
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:35,280
Really make you train. 
Yeah. 

416
00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,560
But at one point we have to get 
over a log in in the middle of 

417
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:41,280
the bog and I get up onto the 
log and then, eh, you're like, I

418
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:42,440
just felt. 
I just. 

419
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:46,280
Rosie just grabs me that because
she's both stand behind me and 

420
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:49,200
she has no patience because she 
proper sportsperson grabs me and

421
00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:52,120
who's me? 
I don't know if you've ever 

422
00:19:52,120 --> 00:19:54,680
gotten a wedgie on national 
television, but what you don't 

423
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:58,520
expect to feel is relief, which 
is like thanks a million for 

424
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:00,640
that. 
Like proper full arm. 

425
00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:03,320
Yeah, hoofs over log. 
So she was absolutely brilliant.

426
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:07,960
But how fit would you have to be
to somebody says 6 days notice. 

427
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:10,000
You want to go on national 
television to do fitness 

428
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:11,360
challenge. 
You must be fairly. 

429
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:14,680
You must have that national 
athletes confidence in your own 

430
00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:16,880
ability. 
Team, I'm the sort of guy who 

431
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:21,840
watches Ninja Warrior and goes. 
You haven't even had a wanker to

432
00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:23,160
see. 
I'm not. 

433
00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:25,280
Like Beard How? 
Do some people not even, you 

434
00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:28,200
know, the people, the guys who 
fall off into the water early? 

435
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:31,400
I'm like these guys, but I know 
for a fact I wouldn't get past 

436
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:31,960
that first. 
But. 

437
00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:33,960
Yeah, where they're running down
and yeah. 

438
00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:36,600
And can you hold your own weight
and, and all this stuff with 

439
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:39,040
your wrists and. 
I think I'd be what do you what 

440
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,680
have you heard about to be fair?
To be fair, right now, maybe. 

441
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:43,640
Working in the sea could be 
part. 

442
00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:44,480
Of your. 
Programme. 

443
00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:47,080
My wrist. 
Yeah, of Jesus Christ, I have a.

444
00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:49,920
Permanently desiccated wrist. 
I broke my wrist falling off a 

445
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:51,680
bike and that bone is just 
stayed out. 

446
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:53,840
There's nothing they can do. 
I'm so I'm from the Midlands, 

447
00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:54,960
which is flat. 
Yeah. 

448
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,760
If you were in our if you were 
an awfully, that would be the 

449
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:00,520
highest point. 
An awfully your broken wrist. 

450
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:02,960
Keep a wrist like a tobler on 
what's going on. 

451
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:06,880
I know How'd you break it. 
I fell off my bike when I was 

452
00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:08,560
too old to be like falling off a
bike. 

453
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:11,640
And I mean a bicycle. 
And did you get treated in the 

454
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:13,600
19th century? 
There was not like they 

455
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:17,760
genuinely put a cast on and then
and then after a month or 

456
00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:20,440
whatever, they took the cast off
and I went, what next? 

457
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:21,880
And they went. 
You just have that, no? 

458
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:23,600
That's you don't. 
Yeah. 

459
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:25,840
And then I just get it. 
Look, Bill's cargo, my knuckle. 

460
00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:29,240
Just get a knuckle. 
A lot of my bones are just 

461
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:32,880
popping out, like, yeah. 
Every bone of my body cracks. 

462
00:21:33,360 --> 00:21:36,840
Sounds like an open fire. 
Yeah, it does. 

463
00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:40,880
I used, I used to have a joke 
that it's a he get up in the 

464
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:41,920
morning, sounds like an open 
fire. 

465
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:45,240
So like you get up and there's a
cracking and hissing and then a 

466
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:49,680
log falls. 
You just get to a certain point.

467
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:52,640
We're just now I remember 
seeing, you know your man, and 

468
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:56,720
there's a guy in the front of 
the guy, Jamie Lannister from 

469
00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:57,200
Gamers. 
Yeah. 

470
00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:58,600
Oh yeah. 
Handsome dude? 

471
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:00,200
Yes, I met a dude. 
Did you? 

472
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:03,160
And, well, Danish course, isn't 
he it? 

473
00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:05,840
Was really nice. 
I met him, we're filming some 

474
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,120
for BBC and he was walking past 
when they were just all living 

475
00:22:08,120 --> 00:22:12,200
in Belfast and I asked him for a
selfie and he was very, very 

476
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,000
pleasant. 
So we always pay our debts. 

477
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:17,720
Yeah. 
I remember seeing him in the 

478
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:19,840
front of some magazine and he 
was saying, like, once you get 

479
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:22,400
to, I think he said 35, maybe he
said 40, because all I do is 

480
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:24,360
mobility work. 
And I was like, oh, fair enough.

481
00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:27,080
And then you get to that age and
you go, oh, I can understand 

482
00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:28,160
that. 
Functional. 

483
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:31,160
I know what I should do. 
I when I go to the gym, I just 

484
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:33,920
start working out, right? 
But I see the guy stretching for

485
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,920
20 minutes and go. 
I should do that, yeah, but I 

486
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,880
just can't bring myself to do. 
I made a mistake the first time 

487
00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:42,040
I ever went to sit for proper 
kind of commercial gym. 

488
00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:44,200
This guy's like, what do you 
want to do? 

489
00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:47,040
And I said, well, he's happy. 
Paraguay. 

490
00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:49,040
Yeah. 
He's quite intimidating. 

491
00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:50,760
And he goes, what sort of stuff 
do you do? 

492
00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:55,200
And I was like, I did do lots of
stuff and you guys watch out for

493
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:58,040
your breakfast. 
I was like eggs, you know, when 

494
00:22:58,040 --> 00:22:59,960
they go through all your like, 
is it well? 

495
00:22:59,960 --> 00:23:01,360
Macros. 
Yeah, macro. 

496
00:23:01,360 --> 00:23:02,760
But what sort of eggs is it 
like? 

497
00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:07,080
Yeah, like poached eggs, because
the protein can degrade and all.

498
00:23:07,360 --> 00:23:12,160
You're like the wee Harry Bones.
Yeah, Kinder, Kinder Buenos. 

499
00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:15,800
I made the toy, though. 
And then he goes, what would you

500
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:17,320
like to do? 
And I said, this is about 10 

501
00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:18,520
years ago. 
I'd love to do chin UPS. 

502
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:20,600
Yeah, I love to bang out some 
chin UPS, you know. 

503
00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:22,400
And he goes, OK, we can start 
now. 

504
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:25,480
And he, we went out and he put, 
you know, those resistance 

505
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:26,280
bands. 
Yes. 

506
00:23:26,360 --> 00:23:28,320
Right. 
Not like the wolf tones, but 

507
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:33,440
like a prep like that's. 
I thought he was just going to 

508
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:36,880
have three guys out in their 80s
just is this going to help me do

509
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:38,560
the chin up? 
It's just going to become you 

510
00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:41,640
black and turns that power on is
really affecting my rhythm, 

511
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:43,400
trying to get my chin over a 
bar. 

512
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:47,360
Followed up, the wolf tones do 
look like strong old school. 

513
00:23:47,360 --> 00:23:49,480
Gym guys, they, they have no 
stretching. 

514
00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:51,480
They have meets. 
They have made strength Yeah, 

515
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:55,400
they have they have spat in 
their hands in a disused garage 

516
00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:58,800
yeah and lifted a chink or 
gentle off the ground yeah, but 

517
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:01,560
no, a proper was just like a 
green resistance band and he put

518
00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:06,200
me in this thing yeah and like 
it's so really there's a guy 

519
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:08,720
beside me doing waited chin UPS 
Yeah. 

520
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:11,160
With stuff attached to him and 
you're. 

521
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:14,240
And the gym had. 
I'll never forget this had a 

522
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:18,840
crash right. 
And at the height, so you're 

523
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:22,320
you're wrapped, he wraps around 
you like and you're sitting in 

524
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:25,720
the sort of thing or your knees 
in it and it helps you and 

525
00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:28,000
you're up like this. 
And I looked across and I could 

526
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,600
see into the I could see into 
the gym crash. 

527
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:35,080
And there was a child attached 
to one of those bouncer things. 

528
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:36,480
Yeah. 
Attached to a doorframe. 

529
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:40,680
The two of us are essentially in
the same get up. 

530
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:42,400
Yeah. 
And he's just laughing at me. 

531
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:44,000
God, you know, it was my choice.
Yeah. 

532
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:46,360
Just like that. 
So the fact. 

533
00:24:46,360 --> 00:24:48,000
That the man put you in it as 
well. 

534
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:49,120
Yeah. 
It's like, help you in. 

535
00:24:49,120 --> 00:24:50,280
Yeah, yeah. 
Because you don't. 

536
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:52,200
That's vulnerable. 
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 

537
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:56,040
But it's kind of it's nice to 
not be able to do something and 

538
00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:57,200
then eventually be able to do 
something. 

539
00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:00,240
Chin up, chin UPS, you lose. 
So fast, Oh my God. 

540
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:02,200
Yeah, like you get into the 
rhythm of it, you bang them out,

541
00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:04,800
you stop for a month, Yeah, 
you've got to go from square 1 

542
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:06,200
again. 
Oh, you're tired or like that? 

543
00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:07,880
I'd like to learn how to do a 
muscle up. 

544
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:10,720
A muscle up me and Tony during. 
Was it during COVID? 

545
00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:16,360
No, just before we just went to 
the gym to do muscles like that 

546
00:25:16,360 --> 00:25:18,800
was our sole focus was to just 
do muscle. 

547
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:22,120
And does your wrist allow each? 
Weirdly, it'll that's what 

548
00:25:22,120 --> 00:25:24,040
allows me to do it helps the 
rest. 

549
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,040
Like something happened. 
It's like a superpower. 

550
00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:27,520
I need to, I need to fuck. 
I need a. 

551
00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:30,880
Shite superpower. 
I fall off a bike every day 

552
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:31,920
trying. 
To do this. 

553
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:34,160
What a terrible Avengers 
Assemble. 

554
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:36,320
Just, you know, the way 
everybody goes to go with the 

555
00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:37,360
bow and arrows. 
Muck. 

556
00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:39,720
Yeah, I'd like to point of 
order. 

557
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:42,600
I'd like to join please. 
Desiccated resma. 

558
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:47,720
No, it doesn't look good. 
How can you do? 

559
00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:51,360
Did you get to muscle UPS? 
Yeah, we got we, we, we're not 

560
00:25:51,360 --> 00:25:53,040
going to muscle UPS yet. 
Really. 

561
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:54,880
Yeah. 
How many could you do? 

562
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:57,760
I'm just very impressed by that 
too. 

563
00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:00,240
Yeah, and a one on pull up was a
big focus. 

564
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:01,560
For a while now. 
Is that what? 

565
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:03,600
Is that OK? 
Is that a war? 

566
00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:06,000
Leave it. 
You'll do that, but you won't 

567
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:09,680
wank it to see. 
So are you talking about 

568
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:10,920
holding? 
Hold on to your wrist. 

569
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:15,520
Holding on to your wrist, yeah. 
See guys that do callisthenics, 

570
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:18,400
I think that's so impressive. 
Yeah, I'd like to do more of 

571
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:20,600
that that, but it's hard to not 
chase that. 

572
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:22,960
Go on down to what you know you 
want to go down the weight on 

573
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:25,480
the machine because it's like, 
it's like a victory lap. 

574
00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:27,240
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 
But the actual stuff you should.

575
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,720
That's ego, isn't it? 
Yeah, Yeah, I think so. 

576
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:34,720
I knew a guy who was, who was 
about 100 kilos and he was, he 

577
00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:37,280
was an Olympic weight lifter and
he was just in ribbons though. 

578
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:40,040
And he was only, yeah, in late 
20s and he was absolutely in 

579
00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:41,280
ribbons. 
And then he lost. 

580
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:44,400
I think he does Iron Man's now 
and he's probably, he's probably

581
00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:47,280
low. 
He might be 83 or 84 kilos, but 

582
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:49,000
he can move now and he is 
functional. 

583
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:50,480
Yes. 
And you know, so he's like now I

584
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:54,000
can pick up my kids and whereas 
he, you know, so before he 

585
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:56,880
could, I don't know, trolls 
child over a course of a mile, 

586
00:26:57,120 --> 00:26:59,520
but like that's no use to you. 
I also frowned upon. 

587
00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:03,200
My my cracking woke my son up. 
I was trying to like my 2 year 

588
00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:06,000
old putting him to bed recently 
and sneak out of his room. 

589
00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:10,120
Yeah and when I got up my knee 
cracked so badly it startled 

590
00:27:10,120 --> 00:27:13,240
him. 
So now I have to like WD40 on my

591
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:17,320
joints. 
I don't know if I've mentioned 

592
00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:19,920
this on the when we did the Zoom
podcast, but everyone forgets 

593
00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:21,880
everything that happened on 
those imports. 

594
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:25,320
The first time I ever laid eyes 
on the Delamere. 

595
00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:28,240
OK, do you remember this story? 
You when you lived in my hedge, 

596
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:32,120
when you were homeless for a 
period, when you went straight 

597
00:27:32,120 --> 00:27:35,000
from parking a loading bed to 
heroin and I helped you out. 

598
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:39,400
I was at the back gate of black 
stuff, BBC black stuff. 

599
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:44,040
I'd say this was a two seasons 
in the blame game time maybe 

600
00:27:44,120 --> 00:27:46,520
kind of when this would have 
been and we were filming a 

601
00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:53,360
schedule for BBC and I and I 
heard a car yeah and I was 

602
00:27:53,360 --> 00:27:56,160
trying to like argue. 
I was like, no, where I'm in the

603
00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:58,880
show, we're filming today. 
Yeah, security guy wasn't having

604
00:27:58,880 --> 00:27:59,720
we. 
Still have that, yeah. 

605
00:27:59,880 --> 00:28:02,080
Then he just sees, he just sees 
a car. 

606
00:28:02,120 --> 00:28:04,080
I hear the car. 
He just hits a button. 

607
00:28:04,360 --> 00:28:06,200
Go on and get like a made man's 
coming. 

608
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:09,800
You had a an Audi TT? 
Yeah. 

609
00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:11,120
And you drove it in. 
Yeah. 

610
00:28:11,120 --> 00:28:14,440
And I just went wow. 
Did that replace the Volkswagen?

611
00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:17,880
It wasn't as good as the polo 
but I but I just remember being 

612
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:20,760
like class. 
The first time I ever went to 

613
00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:23,920
BBC Northern Ireland, I had, I 
had been going to RTA. 

614
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:27,200
Now, the security approach is 
different in RTA, which is an 

615
00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:29,520
open campus, and not in Belfast.
Yeah. 

616
00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:32,160
So you would just drive up on a 
fellow wave at you. 

617
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:34,400
The first time I drove to BBC 
Belfast, you know, there's a big

618
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:35,520
security guest. 
Oh, yeah. 

619
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:38,800
And a lot of fellas in security 
a lot of the time have probably 

620
00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:42,360
been in the military previously.
You know, that's way to put it. 

621
00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:44,720
That's I would like to put. 
This the unofficial military. 

622
00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:46,720
I didn't say anything about a 
Fisher or not. 

623
00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:50,080
I mean, sometimes they had their
own uniform, sometimes they had 

624
00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:54,440
berets and sunglasses. 
I love those berries. 

625
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:56,560
And sexy. 
Well, I always think those like 

626
00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:59,400
this, those distant marches, 
look French to hear. 

627
00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:01,480
I always think they look French 
to hear. 

628
00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:03,160
And then Irish from there. 
Yeah. 

629
00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:05,720
Not the Berry. 
Like, you can clearly tell, 

630
00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:08,720
like, one guy was desperate to 
get them all into it. 

631
00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:09,880
Yeah. 
He's like, no, this is 

632
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:12,040
tradition, you know? 
And then once a couple of the 

633
00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:13,200
boys did it, he's like, thank 
God. 

634
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:13,520
Yeah. 
Yeah. 

635
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,240
I think he just picked up a box 
of something from a surplus 

636
00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:16,800
stuff. 
Yeah. 

637
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:20,080
And he decided this is our look.
Yeah, his berries aren't like 

638
00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:22,640
hard, you know what I mean? 
Like it's not as tough. 

639
00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:24,600
Look, you have to. 
Look, that's what makes you 

640
00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:25,680
tough. 
Yeah, you went. 

641
00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:27,640
That's a man in a beret. 
Yeah, you could kill you. 

642
00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:31,200
You have to look very tough. 
Yeah, my very good friend of 

643
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:36,080
mine and his cousin was in the 
French Foreign Legion, so he was

644
00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:39,040
hard as nails. 
And he, they got into a fight 

645
00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:40,320
once, was he? 
Irish. 

646
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:46,840
He was Irish yet and do you know
those lads who are so confident 

647
00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:49,320
that in a in a fight that if 
it's going to kick off that 

648
00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:52,160
they're going to end this, that 
there's no bravado and they go 

649
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:53,160
quiet? 
Yeah. 

650
00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:55,720
And he said it's the most 
chilling thing he's ever heard. 

651
00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:58,920
Did he maybe like, oh, when you 
see guys like, take a jacket off

652
00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:01,600
and fold it perfectly, like 
they're like, yeah, like some 

653
00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:02,760
guy. 
It was worse than that. 

654
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,400
So this guy would go, he would 
automatically go into a room and

655
00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:06,840
he'd look for exit points, he'd 
look for stuff. 

656
00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:10,000
He could use his weapons, right.
So a fight happens in this pub, 

657
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,960
but my friend is Kieran and his 
cousin is sitting beside him and

658
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:16,080
this guy had had a punch, this 
commanding officer apparently. 

659
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:18,280
But anyway, he so even for the 
French are legion. 

660
00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:20,480
This guy was they think he's a 
rebel, right. 

661
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:24,360
So a row starts off and he just 
and a guy starts to square up to

662
00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:27,120
man and all he does is say to my
friend Karen. 

663
00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:30,800
He goes get off that stool. 
That's all he says. 

664
00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:34,640
That's all he says. 
And yeah, he'd already thought 

665
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:36,240
he was going to pick up the 
stool. 

666
00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:38,040
Karen says what the maths which 
he goes, I would have picked up 

667
00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:39,560
the stool. 
I would have broken off that guy

668
00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:41,720
because I think it would break 
at that point there. 

669
00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:43,880
And then I would have the frame 
would have still left and I 

670
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:48,000
would hit that guy with this bit
like it was like John Wick 

671
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,160
ninja. 
I would love it if a transparent

672
00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:52,200
he was never in the Legion and. 
He worked, right? 

673
00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:55,760
He executed that. 
Yeah, the Allen key is fly off 

674
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:59,360
and hit him in the cornea. 
Pull down the Billy bucket. 

675
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:06,320
We can use those cushions. 
Well distracted with meatballs. 

676
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:08,840
This will be over 5 minutes. 
We'll run out that way because 

677
00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:12,040
the arrows on the floor, it's 
that direction he'll. 

678
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:13,720
Never, he says. 
It's going to take two minutes 

679
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:14,440
to do it. 
It takes 2. 

680
00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:16,680
And a half hours this bitch 
leftover. 

681
00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:21,160
That's an amazing. 
I assume everyone. 

682
00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:23,920
I would hate to find out someone
just joined the French Foreign 

683
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:25,160
Legion because they just fancied
it. 

684
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:26,960
There has to be like the back 
story. 

685
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:29,040
You want the sort of criminal. 
Back because that's the last 

686
00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:30,720
resort. 
You go, you're on the wrong 

687
00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:32,280
Yeah, you're the French Foreign 
Legion. 

688
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:33,920
They will take. 
You, no matter your background, 

689
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,240
that's what you imagine. 
Because it was the movie than 

690
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:39,520
that found out Legion. 
Is that what it was called? 

691
00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:42,120
John John Club on them? 
Yeah, about during the French 

692
00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:44,600
foreign. 
Yeah, no, I know I haven't seen 

693
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:46,360
the film. 
You would love to see the film 

694
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:48,240
or you'd love to be in the 
French Foreign Legion I. 

695
00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:50,920
Would love I think start by 
seeing the film, something I 

696
00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:53,400
would enjoy. 
Yeah, I don't know if that's how

697
00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:57,520
they train for you, just you 
just watch films. 

698
00:31:57,960 --> 00:31:59,880
But you know that in the. 
Did you ever see that in the 

699
00:31:59,880 --> 00:32:04,320
Anthony Anthony Joshua Ruiz is I
think it's that documentary. 

700
00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:07,280
So they have all these people 
about talking about the 

701
00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:10,440
documentary about the fight 
coming up to it and then in the 

702
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:15,240
middle of the fight, in the 
middle of it as as Sylvester 

703
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:19,480
Stallone. 
Yeah, I like, I know, I know you

704
00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:21,840
played a boxer, but you're not a
boxer. 

705
00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:24,800
I think it was his. 
Maybe it was his production 

706
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:26,280
company, but. 
Right, right, right. 

707
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:27,600
Yeah, I know. 
You mean though? 

708
00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:31,600
Like, I mean, if if Torvill and 
Dean talk about Sarajevo in 

709
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:34,040
1984, whatever. 
I don't want to say the two lads

710
00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:36,000
and blades of glory. 
Yeah, yeah. 

711
00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:40,040
Oh well when we were pretending 
to be ice skaters and but I 

712
00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:46,440
yeah, there does not appeal to, 
I don't know most fellas just 

713
00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:50,200
the idea of the French foreign. 
I think the idea of being so 

714
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:55,000
Hardy that, eh, nearly anything 
you can handle nearly any sort 

715
00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:57,440
of. 
Because I entered Tom, I felt 

716
00:32:57,440 --> 00:32:59,000
which. 
I believe is the first rule is 

717
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:00,960
not using words like. 
It's. 

718
00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:03,600
Not the first giveaway that 
you're not tough. 

719
00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:06,840
I was gonna have told this in 
the poll before, but I was gonna

720
00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:09,960
have a fight with my friend 
Marty whenever I was maybe 11 or

721
00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:12,040
something, OK? 
I was running a watch, right? 

722
00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:14,040
And I'd watch way too much 
wrestling at the time. 

723
00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:19,520
And he was older than me and 
good at fighting, right? 

724
00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:22,360
But as I said, I've been 
watching a lot of WWE Raw. 

725
00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:28,240
OK, so as he was walking over to
me to fight, I laughed, took the

726
00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:29,160
watch off. 
Yeah. 

727
00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:31,120
Put it in my pocket. 
And then he beat the fuck. 

728
00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:35,680
And I was like, the one I was 
taking the watch off. 

729
00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:38,040
I was like, this guy's an idiot,
you know? 

730
00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:44,840
But he I bet a lot of my fight 
planning in my head, like your 

731
00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:46,040
friend being like, get off the 
stool. 

732
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:49,080
Yeah, was based on him coming at
me in a very, you know, with a 

733
00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:50,240
clothesline. 
Yeah, yeah. 

734
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:51,960
I would then Doc bounce off 
something. 

735
00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:53,280
Yeah, come back with a flying 
elbow. 

736
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:55,520
But he just pages punched me and
then that was kind of it. 

737
00:33:55,720 --> 00:34:00,960
You know, when you're a kid is, 
is anybody who's ever been in 

738
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:01,840
fights? 
Yeah. 

739
00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:04,320
So if you're if you're not a kid
wins a fight. 

740
00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:08,920
So, so I remember got picking 
around second primary school 

741
00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:12,840
like, and the guy was a boxer. 
So even if you hit him, he's 

742
00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:14,600
been hit. 
Yeah, where you get hit when 

743
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:18,280
you're 11, you go. 
Yeah, yeah. 

744
00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:19,960
Why is he not stopping like my 
brother does? 

745
00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:23,080
Yeah, yeah, yeah, You know, eh. 
But so it's just a surprise of 

746
00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:26,080
us, I. 
Think I'm like when everyone was

747
00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:27,639
watching wrestling first year in
school eh? 

748
00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:30,400
Secondary school we are. 
Looking for ropes to jump off? 

749
00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:31,840
We're not. 
Quite much me and this guy. 

750
00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:34,000
You know what? 
I challenge him to and I quit 

751
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:35,880
much and everyone in the class 
watched it. 

752
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:39,840
What's that? 
You just the first one to say I 

753
00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:41,600
quit losers. 
So I'm A Celebrity. 

754
00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:42,320
Get Me Out of here. 
Yeah. 

755
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:45,320
Pretty much I'm back with her. 
But put your, put your. 

756
00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:48,360
He he got me in like a chokehold
4 seconds and I was like, I 

757
00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:49,520
quit. 
I shouldn't have called this 

758
00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:51,960
much. 
I saw I regretted it so much. 

759
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:54,800
Writing an apology I. 
Just had like in my head I had 

760
00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:57,080
some sort of leg lock on him and
he screams it, you know? 

761
00:34:57,080 --> 00:34:58,800
I quit, you know And then I walk
away. 

762
00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:02,200
All cool but there is always 
ends with me getting beat up so 

763
00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:05,040
I stop calling people out. 
Fairness, I mean, yeah. 

764
00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:06,160
I learned. 
I learned you. 

765
00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:07,360
Want. 
Yeah, that's the good thing. 

766
00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:09,000
Yeah. 
You've learned your lesson. 

767
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,120
And you, you no longer pick 
rows. 

768
00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:13,840
No, no, no. 
I no longer have a big gimmick 

769
00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:17,040
to the match, you know? 
Yeah, I'm like some guy like 

770
00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:19,480
once fight me in a night out. 
I'm like only if it's tables, 

771
00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:22,160
ladders and chairs, you know, 
And then I just lose. 

772
00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:27,040
Before we start to record down 
was talking about a clip you'd 

773
00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:30,080
put out of North Tito visa Tito 
and I said save it for the Paul.

774
00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:33,120
Oh yeah. 
So is this from stand up or no? 

775
00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:35,960
No, I did. 
I did Tim Mcgarry's show and he 

776
00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:39,880
was talking about his podcast 
and eh and somebody just talked 

777
00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:43,720
about, somebody just talked 
about North North S Theatre and 

778
00:35:43,720 --> 00:35:46,720
he said, I said that was better 
and he said not was better and 

779
00:35:46,720 --> 00:35:47,600
that was it and that was it. 
And. 

780
00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:49,720
It's kicking off. 
And it's it's kicking off 

781
00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:52,000
because it's nice. 
That we get long for it to get 

782
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:54,600
political. 
Eh, it's it hasn't gotten, it 

783
00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:57,560
hasn't gotten political yet, 
which is usually the thing. 

784
00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:00,920
I remember talking about a show 
on the blame, an article on the 

785
00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:02,200
blame game. 
It was one of the great 

786
00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:06,160
pleasures of reading any story 
about anything in the Belfast 

787
00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:07,640
Telegraph was within three 
comments. 

788
00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:09,800
We've become sectarian. 
Yeah, it would like it would be 

789
00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:10,880
3. 
Degrees of sectarian. 

790
00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:13,800
Dublin Zoo. 
Yeah, it's Kevin Bacon. 

791
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:14,480
Catholic. 
Protestant. 

792
00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:18,600
We know he's not Jewish or 
Muslim. 

793
00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:21,520
His name's Kevin. 
Bacon and he's one of the pigs. 

794
00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:30,320
He, he was, he was, he was in. 
I'd lost his thought, though. 

795
00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:33,440
Oh, it was an article of 
Penguins or something. 

796
00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:36,800
I remember you. 
Just like Christ it was. 

797
00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:38,400
I was like, don't start me in 
those phenions. 

798
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:41,080
And then it was like, they're 
not, they're clearly 

799
00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:45,480
Protestants. 
They had that March, it was 

800
00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:48,520
called March of the Penguins and
they just kicked off and you're 

801
00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:52,440
like Jesus Christ. 
And the thing, the last thing 

802
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:56,480
I've done that's gone crazy 
online probably was I was 

803
00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:59,720
talking about saying nothing. 
Have you seen say nothing, say 

804
00:36:59,720 --> 00:37:02,120
nothing is is the I was joking. 
Oh. 

805
00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:04,640
No, no replying. 
Not a good, but then I 

806
00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:07,040
remembered it's an audio based 
podcast, so it probably the 

807
00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:08,120
daily good. 
Yeah, still. 

808
00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:10,640
Good. 
I'd like to apologise for 

809
00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:12,640
getting so caught up in my own 
story. 

810
00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:14,840
I love that. 
I love that. 

811
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:18,120
No, but, but I'm going to start 
every say weekend, I'm going to 

812
00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:18,720
start. 
It's on. 

813
00:37:18,720 --> 00:37:21,520
It's on Disney. 
And so at the end end of every 

814
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:23,720
episode is a disclaimer about 
Jerry Adams and says Jerry 

815
00:37:23,720 --> 00:37:26,360
Adams, like Jerry Adams 
regulate, but a central Bank of 

816
00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:29,520
Ireland. 
No, it has it has Jerry Adams 

817
00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:31,800
says he was never remember the 
IRA and all the rest, you know, 

818
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:34,040
and and the producers out of the
end. 

819
00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:36,920
It does say that at the end of 
every every episode. 

820
00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:39,760
Directed show. 
But apparently, like the 

821
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:43,560
producers, they might as well 
go, we can catch it. 

822
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:46,720
But anyway, it says that. 
And because for legal reasons, 

823
00:37:46,720 --> 00:37:50,800
Jerry Adams denies ever been a 
member of the IRA and I've ever 

824
00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:53,640
taken part of any sin italics 
IRA operations. 

825
00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:55,200
But no, because it's on a 
streamer. 

826
00:37:55,200 --> 00:38:00,960
Then of course, the next episode
starts in 1097 and you go, they 

827
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:04,520
put his name very close to a 
timer and a countdown and it 

828
00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:06,600
looks delivered. 
I'm sorry, but it looks 

829
00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:09,160
deliberate put. 
So that kind of kicked off a 

830
00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:13,960
little bit and then I put my, I 
put my video up of the chase. 

831
00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:15,800
I did the chase. 
Yeah, I want to talk about that.

832
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:18,320
Yeah, yeah. 
Did Celebrity Chase and it 

833
00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:21,320
sometimes you do the shows and 
you're you're 5050 guesses kind 

834
00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:24,560
of don't go well. 
And you you look like, oh God, I

835
00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:26,640
didn't do well enough. 
And then sometimes you do them 

836
00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:31,720
and you're 5050 chances go well 
and it went really well. 

837
00:38:31,720 --> 00:38:32,840
So you'd look. 
You look. 

838
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:34,880
At Hot Streak. 
You look better than you might 

839
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:39,320
not necessarily normally look. 
It's really important that and 

840
00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:42,840
any of those was like Mastermind
or eh or the chaser on like that

841
00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:44,800
is you get your first couple of 
questions and then you calm 

842
00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:46,160
down. 
Whereas otherwise your 

843
00:38:46,160 --> 00:38:48,120
adrenaline spikes and none of 
you've ever had this. 

844
00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:51,160
I'm sure you've had a journey 
gig if it really kicks off, if 

845
00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:53,240
your adrenaline spikes cut here.
Yeah, yeah. 

846
00:38:53,240 --> 00:38:54,760
They've actually proven this and
things. 

847
00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:57,120
So. 
So say you missed your first two

848
00:38:57,120 --> 00:39:00,280
questions in Mastermind or 
whatever, then all you hear is 

849
00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:05,360
you don't hear eh, Shane Todd is
a well known eh comedian from 

850
00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:08,640
which town in all or whatever. 
Yeah, well done one eh? 

851
00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:12,280
And if you have gotten 3 
questions before that wrong, all

852
00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:18,640
you hear is for yes, count you 
down and you're like and you 

853
00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:20,760
almost have the guest there. 
Right, right, right. 

854
00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:23,640
I mean, yeah, yeah. 
So put the the the count. 

855
00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:25,280
The chase went really well. 
You know, do. 

856
00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:29,160
You are the nerves. 
Similar for stand up. 

857
00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:31,160
Something like that. 
Like, no, I think because stand 

858
00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:33,040
up. 
I mean, you can even joke about 

859
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:35,040
and there's quite There's enough
time. 

860
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:37,160
If it goes wrong, it's not up. 
You can joke about it, there's 

861
00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:39,000
enough time. 
The Chaser really enjoyed. 

862
00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:43,080
And who was who was the chaser? 
Chaser was Dara Ennis, OK, so he

863
00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:47,360
was Irish and because you want 
to show, So it was me and Jamie 

864
00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:50,960
Borthwick from EastEnders, Helen
Lederer from Blackadder, eh? 

865
00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:53,720
Jasmine Harmon from Place in the
Sun and then me and you're not 

866
00:39:53,720 --> 00:39:57,440
as well known, eh and all in the
UK. 

867
00:39:57,520 --> 00:40:00,680
So Dara Ennis comes out and it 
was great because he had seen me

868
00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:02,400
and he kind of put all in 
contacts and he was really, 

869
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:05,480
really sweet. 
Umm, So I kind of got lucky 

870
00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:07,160
there with the chaser. 
If I had been Paul Sinner, that 

871
00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:08,640
would have been good as well, 
because obviously you know him 

872
00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:09,560
from stand up and stuff. 
What's? 

873
00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:10,600
Your what was your first 
question? 

874
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:13,160
Do you remember? 
The first, any first question, 

875
00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:15,880
the cash builder or can I tell 
you a little secret about the 

876
00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:19,800
cash builder, please? 
This is true and so cash builder

877
00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:23,760
got 9 out of 10 right. 
The 10th question was something 

878
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:26,840
like Taylor. 
It was Taylor wimpy Bill bill 

879
00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:30,840
swat or sell swat in the UK and 
I went I don't know a pass and 

880
00:40:30,840 --> 00:40:32,720
it's it's houses. 
But if you don't live in 

881
00:40:32,720 --> 00:40:33,320
England. 
Genuine. 

882
00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:35,760
I was going to say burgers. 
I mean, it would have been a 

883
00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:37,480
guess that was the first. 
It's better than pass. 

884
00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:39,000
Yeah. 
Well, wimpy, that's what I mean.

885
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:40,120
Yeah, Yeah. 
So. 

886
00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:42,480
But if you don't live in the UK 
and you haven't seen them 

887
00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:47,120
around, actually my pass. 
And then so he says to me, don't

888
00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:48,000
put this. 
That was a clip. 

889
00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:52,640
It needs context. 
And he says to me, don't nod. 

890
00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:55,840
So probably watch cause did it, 
did it? 

891
00:40:56,160 --> 00:40:57,560
Did it not build houses in 
Ireland? 

892
00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:03,320
And I went, I went, I said, no, 
we all live underground. 

893
00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:11,360
We fear British invasion. 
Right then I thought, no, what 

894
00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:17,960
he said was, do they not built 
houses in Ireland? 

895
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:25,640
And I got all, I had the wolf 
stones in my head gone and I got

896
00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:27,680
all chippy. 
And I know that's not what he 

897
00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:29,800
meant at all. 
He's really lovely, really nice.

898
00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:35,560
And then for time and probably 
reputation, it didn't go out. 

899
00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:37,040
But it's funny because in the 
moment. 

900
00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:38,720
Yeah, yeah. 
That's good. 

901
00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:40,560
It's all about intonation. 
Give me a quick give me a 

902
00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:43,040
question if you remember. 
I'll give you a question. 

903
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:49,240
Can I tell you, once I had seen 
an episode of the 20th Fact 

904
00:41:49,240 --> 00:41:50,960
Check me on this. 
I had seen an episode of The 

905
00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:55,080
Chase, Yeah, on ITV or whatever.
And then we were at our friend 

906
00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:57,200
Stevie's house about to go on a 
night out, and of course the 

907
00:41:57,200 --> 00:42:00,360
boys were watching The Chase. 
Yeah, but it was on like UKTV or

908
00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:02,760
something. 
Yeah, it was the same episode. 

909
00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:07,120
And I sat there like real month 
and just got every single one 

910
00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:08,200
right. 
And the boys were like, he 

911
00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:10,040
actually, he's wrong with him. 
Yeah, he's a genius. 

912
00:42:10,080 --> 00:42:13,000
And what sport can you score a 
daddy? 

913
00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:21,960
100 crickets. 
Yeah, I don't think, I think see

914
00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:24,320
all games see like Trivial 
Pursuit on a plane. 

915
00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:25,440
Yeah, good at that. 
Yeah. 

916
00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:28,440
But the idea that it's like live
audience and stuff. 

917
00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:31,200
Yeah. 
I think I would panic and get 

918
00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:32,400
things wrong. 
Yeah. 

919
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:36,080
And you know. 
I think it's funny because if 

920
00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:39,160
you do well and the people have 
texted me, tweeted me and said, 

921
00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:40,920
oh, you could, oh, you should be
a chaser. 

922
00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:42,120
Oh, they're going to give you a 
job next. 

923
00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:46,720
The level that they're off. 
We're doing it all the time. 

924
00:42:46,720 --> 00:42:48,520
Do they and they train, do they 
practise? 

925
00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:49,680
That's what I was going to. 
Salutely. 

926
00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:52,120
So is it just? 
Course, it looks like the 

927
00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:56,760
disdain, the disdain that you 
have do. 

928
00:42:56,760 --> 00:43:00,320
You know what I would for? 
Education read like you didn't 

929
00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:02,280
even like. 
If you had said did they just 

930
00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:05,560
learn facts or read lists I 
would have accepted that. 

931
00:43:05,720 --> 00:43:10,160
But did they just read books? 
Ah, like drummer losers was a 

932
00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:12,800
Paul Paul to like anyone who 
looks smart and had glasses, 

933
00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:14,840
he'd be like, kill them. 
Yeah, I'd be like, I'd be like 

934
00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:16,320
Cambodia. 
Yeah, like whenever, like 

935
00:43:16,320 --> 00:43:18,520
whenever dictators come in, 
they're like, burn all the 

936
00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:19,760
books. 
Yeah, that'd be me. 

937
00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:23,920
Yeah, don't want ideas. 
I don't want any ideas I think. 

938
00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:26,000
Burn the scrolls. 
I think they do. 

939
00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:29,640
I think it's, it's foot. 
I think now that will be boring 

940
00:43:29,640 --> 00:43:32,440
unless you're into it. 
But I think that like there are 

941
00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:35,480
certain questions that there's, 
there's, there's themes in those

942
00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:36,600
questions if you look at them 
enough. 

943
00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:38,920
Like if you were, if somebody 
said you have to be a chaser in 

944
00:43:38,920 --> 00:43:41,440
six months, you'd learn every 
single capital city of every 

945
00:43:41,440 --> 00:43:44,720
single country in the world. 
You'd learn who won the Oscars 

946
00:43:44,720 --> 00:43:47,440
from, say, the 1960s onwards. 
Baku. 

947
00:43:47,440 --> 00:43:49,440
Yep. 
You're welcome. 

948
00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:54,840
That's this whole pod I've been 
about that. 

949
00:43:57,880 --> 00:44:00,880
I know that's not a mainstream. 
One, this whole part has been a 

950
00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:05,640
setup for one joke. 
Senegal. 

951
00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:13,280
Senegal, Oh, Senegal. 
West Africa. 

952
00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:15,560
Senegal. 
Do. 

953
00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:18,160
You know. 
Yep, just from football. 

954
00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:22,720
Oh God I should know this. 
Give me the 1st letter. 

955
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:26,800
D Don't give me the 1st letter 
in the chest. 

956
00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:28,680
Dhaka, Dhaka. 
Paris. 

957
00:44:28,680 --> 00:44:30,400
Tucker rally of course goes 
there. 

958
00:44:30,720 --> 00:44:32,680
Yeah, I should have gotten that.
Yeah, well, you got an end. 

959
00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:35,560
Yeah, but they give me a yeah. 
See, I can't do that. 

960
00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:37,480
See, if I don't know the answer 
straight away, yeah, I'll never 

961
00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:38,920
be able to. 
Dig What if I did all the 

962
00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:41,760
letters of us? 
Yeah, I might know that, but you

963
00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:42,640
dug for that. 
You. 

964
00:44:42,640 --> 00:44:44,360
Went over the back catalogue 
one, gives another one. 

965
00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:45,080
Go. 
I don't have a backup. 

966
00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:46,760
You want to do a capital city? 
Yeah, go on. 

967
00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:51,040
Estonia. 
Talent, yeah. 

968
00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:56,440
Brazil. 
Brazil, yeah. 

969
00:44:56,440 --> 00:45:00,240
Yeah, people always Australia, 
Canberra, yeah, they're two, 

970
00:45:00,240 --> 00:45:01,720
they're two. 
You can get people like pretty 

971
00:45:01,720 --> 00:45:02,640
quick. 
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 

972
00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:04,840
Is he Sydney and. 
Sao Paulo, Yeah. 

973
00:45:04,840 --> 00:45:13,520
And then you never speak. 
San Marino Vegos is it? 

974
00:45:13,600 --> 00:45:15,320
I don't know. 
The answer that sounds I got is 

975
00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:16,400
right. 
Is that right? 

976
00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:18,760
It's just. 
The city of San Marino. 

977
00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:20,240
Oh yeah. 
Where is Vadu's then? 

978
00:45:22,040 --> 00:45:23,920
I thought One of the smaller 
ones, yeah. 

979
00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:27,760
I love man. 
Douglas Yeah. 

980
00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:31,240
Where is Vadu's VADUZ? 
I'm trying to remember where it 

981
00:45:31,240 --> 00:45:32,160
is. 
It's one of those small. 

982
00:45:32,880 --> 00:45:36,160
I could be at Lafayette, no. 
And the Latvia is Riga. 

983
00:45:36,320 --> 00:45:38,520
Yeah, lectures, times, That's 
it. 

984
00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:40,880
Yeah, I like those weird places.
Yeah. 

985
00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:44,120
Those just be silly places. 
No, I know what you like. 

986
00:45:44,240 --> 00:45:45,880
I mean, the pods clearly doing 
well. 

987
00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:48,120
It's you've done Isle of Man and
lecture Stein. 

988
00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:50,360
Yeah, it's tax. 
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. 

989
00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:55,520
It's an absolute tax shelter. 
Look sure to the Cayman Islands 

990
00:45:56,400 --> 00:45:57,800
loves. 
Yeah, yeah. 

991
00:45:57,800 --> 00:46:00,080
Totally unrelated. 
Give the same man same account 

992
00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:03,960
as Jimmy Carter. 
Cars of my childhood, 

993
00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:10,400
Volkswagen, Polo and Jimmy, 
yeah, I do think you could learn

994
00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:11,240
those lists. 
I did. 

995
00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:13,800
And I think that they, oddly 
enough, really love that sort of

996
00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:14,640
stuff, you know? 
Yeah. 

997
00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:16,760
And they love learning. 
And Paul loves learning about 

998
00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:18,160
connections and stuff like this.
And. 

999
00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:21,200
And Dara is just Dara's just a 
really bright mouth. 

1000
00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:23,440
Dara's. 
It was only just gave up a job 

1001
00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:26,520
recently was a neuroscientist 
studying studying fruit flies. 

1002
00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:29,040
And the reason he studied fruit 
flies is the genetics of fruit 

1003
00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:33,120
flies is you basically you can 
have your, your, your granddad 

1004
00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:37,880
can have a rake of grandchildren
within like two or three months 

1005
00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:40,160
or something like this. 
You know, I mean, so very short 

1006
00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:41,720
reproduction cycle. 
So they can study all the 

1007
00:46:41,720 --> 00:46:43,680
genetics really quickly. 
Right, right. 

1008
00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:47,200
But are you ever like, are you 
ever learning new stuff about 

1009
00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:49,680
that? 
I've never heard a man 

1010
00:46:49,680 --> 00:46:53,280
dismissing point. 
Right, right, right, right, 

1011
00:46:53,280 --> 00:46:54,760
right, right. 
Moving on. 

1012
00:46:55,200 --> 00:46:57,320
Boring. 
No idea. 

1013
00:46:57,360 --> 00:46:59,280
Yeah. 
Hey, worst gig ever. 

1014
00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:05,720
Apart from this one. 
You mean live gig? 

1015
00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:13,440
No dues. 
This whole podcast is going to 

1016
00:47:13,440 --> 00:47:18,080
be the word Contra Tom, which 
I'm proud and ashamed of and 

1017
00:47:18,080 --> 00:47:19,800
produce. 
And are they learning new 

1018
00:47:19,800 --> 00:47:20,360
things? 
I don't know. 

1019
00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:23,400
I suppose like I do like. 
Is there no losses of stuff we 

1020
00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:24,480
should leave? 
What? 

1021
00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:26,360
Is there not a load of stuff 
like? 

1022
00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:29,600
That is irrelevant. 
Yeah, No, I understand. 

1023
00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:32,600
I think, I think the Greek God 
of XY and Z is irrelevant 

1024
00:47:32,600 --> 00:47:34,400
largely. 
But it's good in the quiz. 

1025
00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:38,800
But like, I much prefer to be 
able to hack into the northern 

1026
00:47:38,800 --> 00:47:41,920
bank and. 
I'd like to even animals and 

1027
00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:43,240
stuff like. 
Yeah, there's. 

1028
00:47:44,320 --> 00:47:46,320
Probably people still studying 
cars. 

1029
00:47:46,520 --> 00:47:50,160
For what? 
I mean, I would find that 

1030
00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:54,320
argument more persuasive had you
not really been a proponent for 

1031
00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:56,240
meat strength earlier on in the 
show. 

1032
00:47:56,680 --> 00:47:57,680
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 
I was. 

1033
00:47:57,720 --> 00:48:00,200
I mean, if you picked aardvarks 
or something like that. 

1034
00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:02,200
Yeah, yeah. 
I mean, fuck those bastards. 

1035
00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:03,720
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 
I think they're. 

1036
00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:05,280
Oh, you think you're great with 
your own? 

1037
00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:06,720
With the front to the fucking 
dictionary? 

1038
00:48:06,720 --> 00:48:08,120
There's a time and place for 
learning. 

1039
00:48:08,320 --> 00:48:10,920
Yeah, it ends. 
It ends at university, right? 

1040
00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:13,200
And even even university on my 
council. 

1041
00:48:13,200 --> 00:48:19,360
What did you do in university? 
Did you you didn't know? 

1042
00:48:19,760 --> 00:48:21,200
No. 
What did you do when you left 

1043
00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:22,560
school? 
Chilled. 

1044
00:48:24,200 --> 00:48:26,000
Chilled. 
Yeah, Muscle OPS. 

1045
00:48:28,520 --> 00:48:30,240
What age were you when you left 
school? 

1046
00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:32,240
16. 
OK, sixteen. 

1047
00:48:32,240 --> 00:48:33,000
Yeah, OK. 
That's. 

1048
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:34,800
Quite and then I went to college
and loved it. 

1049
00:48:34,880 --> 00:48:36,520
OK, I did. 
Media moving image. 

1050
00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:41,680
Media moving image. 
I can see where you like films. 

1051
00:48:42,240 --> 00:48:44,840
OK, OK. 
Yeah, this is looking video. 

1052
00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:48,800
And we're moving setting up. 
Setting up tax shelters, Yeah. 

1053
00:48:50,120 --> 00:48:51,520
Where did you do? 
Where did you do? 

1054
00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:53,240
Belfast Metropolitan College. 
OK. 

1055
00:48:53,240 --> 00:48:55,840
I mean years was the course two.
OK. 

1056
00:48:56,200 --> 00:48:58,440
Love you. 2 years for everybody.
Yeah, Yeah, OK. 

1057
00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:01,520
No, they didn't. 
Two months. 

1058
00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:04,360
I'm just, I kind of assumed it 
might have been a year. 

1059
00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:05,680
I loved college. 
Did you? 

1060
00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:08,160
Love the course where you were 
in two years. 

1061
00:49:08,240 --> 00:49:10,200
You're in the centre town 
watching films. 

1062
00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:11,720
Wearing your own clothes. 
Watch not that. 

1063
00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:17,760
What do you think university is 
that you turned up ago? 

1064
00:49:17,960 --> 00:49:19,920
Well, you've got enough points 
in your leaving centre area 

1065
00:49:19,920 --> 00:49:22,080
levels. 
Here's some other person's 

1066
00:49:22,080 --> 00:49:25,800
clothes that you have to wear. 
If I hadn't known you could wear

1067
00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:27,320
your own clothes that you need 
to try it hard. 

1068
00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:31,160
The other man over there in the 
corner, he'll make you put on a 

1069
00:49:31,160 --> 00:49:33,000
Berry. 
That's a different course. 

1070
00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:35,760
Ignore the sunglasses and the 
bear. 

1071
00:49:36,040 --> 00:49:37,640
Yeah, yeah. 
And you've. 

1072
00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:41,360
But that's kind of isn't that a 
good thing to have done then and

1073
00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:44,520
gone into what you do now 
Because like I did, I was a 

1074
00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:46,600
software engineer and the only 
reason I did that is because my 

1075
00:49:46,600 --> 00:49:48,400
brother had done it right. 
So you do. 

1076
00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:50,840
You're leaving, Sir. 
You get points for your grades 

1077
00:49:50,840 --> 00:49:55,000
and you can I'm explaining for 
our international audience. 

1078
00:49:55,600 --> 00:49:58,920
I'm sure you have listeners all 
over the world and San Marino, 

1079
00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:00,960
for example, Douglas, the other 
man. 

1080
00:50:01,160 --> 00:50:06,280
And show it to my content. 
They don't listen to this 

1081
00:50:06,720 --> 00:50:09,280
because there's no way Shane 
Todd is your written name when 

1082
00:50:09,280 --> 00:50:11,520
you're dealing with those. 
It's Mickey Bartlett. 

1083
00:50:13,480 --> 00:50:15,840
So you get enough points and 
then you kind of go to a college

1084
00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:17,920
course. 
And I just, I just did. 

1085
00:50:17,920 --> 00:50:20,520
I literally did it because I 
knew I would get job. 

1086
00:50:20,720 --> 00:50:23,000
Yeah, my brother had already 
done it. 

1087
00:50:23,080 --> 00:50:24,400
Yeah. 
It was a placeholder, you know. 

1088
00:50:24,520 --> 00:50:26,480
Yeah. 
So like yours was a placeholder 

1089
00:50:26,480 --> 00:50:27,840
result. 
Yeah, before you find this. 

1090
00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:30,080
But we're I'm weirdly Michael 
there was in my class. 

1091
00:50:30,800 --> 00:50:31,600
Really. 
Yeah. 

1092
00:50:31,840 --> 00:50:33,520
Wow. 
Because you know. 

1093
00:50:33,520 --> 00:50:37,440
What you what did you do when 
you left college then, eh? 

1094
00:50:38,120 --> 00:50:41,440
Didn't stand up part time like 
as a hobby and work in call 

1095
00:50:41,440 --> 00:50:42,640
centre. 
OK. 

1096
00:50:42,840 --> 00:50:45,680
What did you do when you left at
the work and finance? 

1097
00:50:46,440 --> 00:50:48,600
Work in finance, yeah, but 
finance could be absolutely 

1098
00:50:48,600 --> 00:50:50,680
anything. 
It could be setting up, eh? 

1099
00:50:50,880 --> 00:50:53,560
Like numbered accounts for the 
assassination. 

1100
00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:57,240
Money for men, if you know what 
I mean, around the estate. 

1101
00:50:57,320 --> 00:50:58,720
OK, right. 
That makes sense it. 

1102
00:50:58,720 --> 00:51:00,920
Could be that or it could be 
counter #4 please, it could be 

1103
00:51:00,920 --> 00:51:04,200
absolutely anything. 
So you're lending out communion 

1104
00:51:04,200 --> 00:51:08,720
money to, you know, loan shark 
like retail finance and 

1105
00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:10,800
recoveries and collections and 
that kind of stuff. 

1106
00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:15,720
Re recoveries and collections, 
now we have to find out where 

1107
00:51:15,720 --> 00:51:17,560
he's from because recoveries and
collections could be a phone 

1108
00:51:17,560 --> 00:51:20,680
call or turning up like Ray 
Donovan and getting a baseball 

1109
00:51:20,680 --> 00:51:23,360
bat, the boot of a car. 
You've got to be careful when 

1110
00:51:23,360 --> 00:51:27,200
you do that, what the car is. 
I think you can't if you're if 

1111
00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:29,840
you're collecting debts, yeah. 
You're taking a bat out of the 

1112
00:51:29,840 --> 00:51:31,680
back of a car. 
You can't take it out of a 

1113
00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:33,280
jinkle genital, No. 
Can you? 

1114
00:51:33,440 --> 00:51:35,600
Well, I think bat is bigger than
or it's a big that. 

1115
00:51:35,600 --> 00:51:38,120
Even harder. 
Yeah, yeah, I don't need this 

1116
00:51:38,120 --> 00:51:40,000
guy doesn't need the big 4 by 4.
Yeah. 

1117
00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:42,920
You know, I think the ultimate 
flex would be if you turned up 

1118
00:51:42,920 --> 00:51:46,200
in a chinkle gento, open the 
boat, took a bat out of the 

1119
00:51:46,200 --> 00:51:48,640
boot, put the bat in the ground 
and batter somebody with the 

1120
00:51:48,680 --> 00:51:49,800
chinkle gento. 
Yeah, you. 

1121
00:51:49,840 --> 00:51:51,200
Just lift up the chinkle. 
Just. 

1122
00:51:51,200 --> 00:51:52,680
Hit somewhere. 
Smart car. 

1123
00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:57,760
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 
Umm, you're doing eh, SSE again,

1124
00:51:57,760 --> 00:51:59,680
Because when we talked loud, we 
did the Zoom podcast. 

1125
00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:01,520
You were going to do the SEC 
Yeah. 

1126
00:52:02,080 --> 00:52:03,280
And you've done how many Times 
Now? 

1127
00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:05,560
Eh, I think three years of time 
times. 

1128
00:52:05,600 --> 00:52:09,280
Yes, can I say my in laws Yeah, 
the show they the stand up show 

1129
00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:11,720
they go see every year is Neil 
Elmer and oh wow. 

1130
00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:13,560
And then the next priority is. 
Me. 

1131
00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:15,920
Yeah, My show. 
They'll see you forever though, 

1132
00:52:15,920 --> 00:52:17,200
and they know you're good, so 
it's fine. 

1133
00:52:17,600 --> 00:52:19,960
That's a lovely way to look at. 
Yeah, they they want. 

1134
00:52:19,960 --> 00:52:23,120
And they say it like this, but 
they my. 

1135
00:52:23,120 --> 00:52:25,400
Family does them. 
They love, they love going to 

1136
00:52:25,400 --> 00:52:28,360
your Belfast shows and UMM and 
SSC is great. 

1137
00:52:28,720 --> 00:52:30,560
It is great. 
It's surprisingly great. 

1138
00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:32,320
Yeah, yeah. 
From what it is because it's 

1139
00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:34,320
obviously its primary purposes 
in ice hockey stadium. 

1140
00:52:34,600 --> 00:52:39,160
But the first time I was in it 
before, before I think I did it,

1141
00:52:39,160 --> 00:52:41,240
I was just looking at going. 
The sound is better than I 

1142
00:52:41,240 --> 00:52:44,480
expected and the lights are 
better because of the because of

1143
00:52:44,480 --> 00:52:46,520
how healthy the scene is here 
and because all of you boys have

1144
00:52:46,520 --> 00:52:48,600
done and what I was. 
Going to say, there's so much 

1145
00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:50,160
comedy in it now. 
There's probably a lot of these 

1146
00:52:50,160 --> 00:52:52,520
arenas and very rarely have 
stand up, yeah. 

1147
00:52:52,520 --> 00:52:54,480
But these they have started 
every month now. 

1148
00:52:54,480 --> 00:52:57,440
Although a woman came to a gig 
the other day I was doing and 

1149
00:52:57,440 --> 00:53:00,280
eh, she's from West Belfast, was
in Yuri and I said why are you 

1150
00:53:00,280 --> 00:53:03,200
here Because, well, I just go to
the SSC. 

1151
00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:06,160
She goes, it's freezing when 
it's an ice hockey arena. 

1152
00:53:06,160 --> 00:53:07,760
I mean, there's it can't be a 
massive surprise. 

1153
00:53:07,760 --> 00:53:09,120
But yeah, it was. 
Yeah. 

1154
00:53:09,120 --> 00:53:11,040
Can't do much about that. 
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 

1155
00:53:11,040 --> 00:53:14,720
But yeah, it's great. 
And it's it's the size that is 

1156
00:53:14,720 --> 00:53:16,920
it's that perfect size of 
because I like talking the front

1157
00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:20,720
row bit messing around and they 
don't really feel excluded in 

1158
00:53:20,720 --> 00:53:24,600
that, you know? 
Yeah, eh, whereas I think 

1159
00:53:24,600 --> 00:53:28,920
there's a size beyond that where
like Dara Dara brain remember he

1160
00:53:28,920 --> 00:53:31,160
was doing a run of, I don't 
know, he's doing 25 or 30 Victor

1161
00:53:31,160 --> 00:53:33,000
streets once. 
And so why would you not just do

1162
00:53:33,040 --> 00:53:36,840
three as he or three three 
arenas and he was. 

1163
00:53:36,880 --> 00:53:38,600
So no in the way you say 3 twice
there. 

1164
00:53:38,600 --> 00:53:40,680
I know, yeah. 
You'd I knew going into you 

1165
00:53:40,680 --> 00:53:42,320
didn't want to say that. 
No, I didn't want to say I 

1166
00:53:42,320 --> 00:53:44,080
should have said the point. 
Point depot. 

1167
00:53:44,080 --> 00:53:46,360
Yeah, yeah, I think that would 
have annoyed some people, but. 

1168
00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:49,680
And he went for what I do, 
messing around people. 

1169
00:53:49,680 --> 00:53:51,040
Yeah, it's too far, you know? 
Yeah. 

1170
00:53:51,280 --> 00:53:53,240
I like to mix it up. 
I think sometimes you do the big

1171
00:53:53,240 --> 00:53:56,200
show, sometimes you do like a 
run of the smaller shows. 

1172
00:53:56,200 --> 00:53:57,520
Yeah. 
And you keep mixing it up. 

1173
00:53:57,600 --> 00:53:59,080
Yeah, I think that's a way to 
do. 

1174
00:53:59,280 --> 00:54:02,120
And actually you're doing 
Millennium Forum and Derry do. 

1175
00:54:02,120 --> 00:54:04,280
We'll put the link to all the 
shows in the description of 

1176
00:54:04,280 --> 00:54:05,880
this. 
Millennium Forum. 

1177
00:54:05,920 --> 00:54:10,880
Greg is phenomenal because it's 
like the way that's set up. 

1178
00:54:10,880 --> 00:54:14,480
There's a lot of rooms like that
that are maybe 2003 thousand 

1179
00:54:14,480 --> 00:54:17,640
sort of thing. 
This is like a miniature version

1180
00:54:17,640 --> 00:54:19,200
of those. 
You've got like 1000 people in 

1181
00:54:19,200 --> 00:54:19,680
there. 
Yeah. 

1182
00:54:19,880 --> 00:54:22,560
And it's so they're so close. 
It's so intimate. 

1183
00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:25,280
It feels like, And I think Vicar
St, maybe it has this too. 

1184
00:54:25,400 --> 00:54:26,800
Yeah. 
It feels like there's a quarter 

1185
00:54:26,800 --> 00:54:28,160
of the amount of people that 
they really are. 

1186
00:54:28,160 --> 00:54:31,600
Yeah, the distance between you 
and the furthest person away, 

1187
00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:33,400
yeah, is not massive. 
Yeah. 

1188
00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:36,720
And that's that's a huge thing. 
And dairy is a lot. 

1189
00:54:36,720 --> 00:54:40,560
Lot of comedians find dairy like
all in that they go well. 

1190
00:54:40,560 --> 00:54:43,400
I'm selling group in Belfast, 
Yeah, but when I go to Derry 

1191
00:54:43,400 --> 00:54:45,080
it's it's nowhere near the same.
Yeah. 

1192
00:54:45,520 --> 00:54:49,320
When you keep going to Derry, I 
think, and showing love to the 

1193
00:54:49,320 --> 00:54:51,720
city, yeah, they love that back 
in return. 

1194
00:54:51,720 --> 00:54:53,600
Yeah. 
So once you like, if you're 

1195
00:54:53,600 --> 00:54:55,720
playing the Forum regularly and 
doing their as part of your 

1196
00:54:55,720 --> 00:54:57,560
tour, I think it's always a 
great sign. 

1197
00:54:57,560 --> 00:55:01,280
Yeah, I mean, it's a smaller 
city and and I'm from a small 

1198
00:55:01,280 --> 00:55:04,920
place, much smaller than Derry. 
And there's an element of you 

1199
00:55:04,920 --> 00:55:07,280
were delighted that someone 
would come and see you because 

1200
00:55:07,280 --> 00:55:08,600
they don't necessarily have to 
see you. 

1201
00:55:08,600 --> 00:55:10,920
Definitely, particularly if 
they're huge act. 

1202
00:55:11,080 --> 00:55:13,400
So and Derry, very audience is 
brilliant as well. 

1203
00:55:13,400 --> 00:55:14,400
They're great. 
Absolutely. 

1204
00:55:14,480 --> 00:55:17,400
I find the audience is North of 
Border, generally speaking. 

1205
00:55:17,720 --> 00:55:20,840
And because comedians tent 
because one of the great 

1206
00:55:20,840 --> 00:55:22,760
questions they always get asked 
is, is there a difference? 

1207
00:55:23,120 --> 00:55:25,520
And there's not a massive 
difference. 

1208
00:55:25,520 --> 00:55:28,880
I think we've we find a lot of 
the same surreal stuff very 

1209
00:55:28,880 --> 00:55:31,080
funny. 
What I do like about North of 

1210
00:55:31,080 --> 00:55:34,360
Border is that because for 
various obvious reasons, there's

1211
00:55:34,360 --> 00:55:37,280
a slight darkness of the sense 
of humour here. 

1212
00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:40,400
Yeah, of course comedians love 
that because we tend to have to 

1213
00:55:40,400 --> 00:55:43,400
accent she's humour because 
we've seen everything are heard 

1214
00:55:43,400 --> 00:55:46,160
heard jokes about everything I 
suppose so there's an element of

1215
00:55:46,160 --> 00:55:49,120
that in Belfast and area and all
around that is a little bit more

1216
00:55:49,120 --> 00:55:50,720
like the comedian central 
overthink. 

1217
00:55:50,720 --> 00:55:52,240
Yeah, you know what I mean? 
But I. 

1218
00:55:52,240 --> 00:55:56,480
Just think it's a great time to 
be gagging around here and even 

1219
00:55:56,480 --> 00:55:58,040
the shows at a Dublin Cork and 
stuff. 

1220
00:55:58,120 --> 00:56:00,840
Yeah, audiences are just like, 
I'm not just sound not like 

1221
00:56:00,840 --> 00:56:03,840
audiences are brilliant. 
I think there was a time where. 

1222
00:56:04,960 --> 00:56:07,240
You know what it is now. 
Exactly exactly. 

1223
00:56:07,240 --> 00:56:11,800
And they know how to have the 
best night and and just sit and 

1224
00:56:11,800 --> 00:56:13,800
enjoy the show. 
We also tend to think that 

1225
00:56:14,080 --> 00:56:15,480
everybody is familiar with stand
up. 

1226
00:56:15,480 --> 00:56:18,960
Yeah, somebody who likes stand 
up might go to a gig a year. 

1227
00:56:19,080 --> 00:56:20,280
Yeah, maybe. 
Yeah. 

1228
00:56:20,280 --> 00:56:22,880
So like, why would you expect 
somebody who's brand new, who 

1229
00:56:22,880 --> 00:56:24,520
might know you from TikTok or 
might know you from this, might 

1230
00:56:24,520 --> 00:56:26,000
know you from something else? 
Yeah. 

1231
00:56:26,880 --> 00:56:28,920
You can't expect them to know 
what it is necessarily. 

1232
00:56:28,920 --> 00:56:30,800
So we're a bit wrapped up in 
it's like when you do the Edmund

1233
00:56:30,800 --> 00:56:32,560
Fringe, no one else cares. 
Yeah. 

1234
00:56:32,640 --> 00:56:34,440
Yeah. 
No one gives a shit that you're 

1235
00:56:34,560 --> 00:56:36,600
having a mental breakdown in 
Scotland in August. 

1236
00:56:36,760 --> 00:56:38,040
Yeah. 
I mean, no one cares. 

1237
00:56:38,040 --> 00:56:39,560
So sometimes you have to kind of
step back. 

1238
00:56:39,560 --> 00:56:41,840
And remember a better stand up 
you did talking to the Fringe 

1239
00:56:42,800 --> 00:56:45,240
about being in Edinburgh. 
You did it in Edinburgh on one 

1240
00:56:45,240 --> 00:56:46,960
of the got the BBC gala type 
things. 

1241
00:56:47,120 --> 00:56:49,080
Oh really? 
And it was talking about you 

1242
00:56:49,080 --> 00:56:51,960
were cycling home from the bar. 
Oh yeah. 

1243
00:56:51,960 --> 00:56:53,680
Police pulled over and you were 
beside your poster. 

1244
00:56:54,280 --> 00:56:58,160
Oh yeah, stand up. 
I mean, it's better when I don't

1245
00:56:58,400 --> 00:56:59,520
when you don't give away the 
end. 

1246
00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:07,600
But I mean, if all stand up, I 
think, I think we should do a 

1247
00:57:07,600 --> 00:57:09,800
tour together. 
Have you seen a waste of my time

1248
00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:12,360
doing an hour and a quarter? 
You should come on and just 

1249
00:57:12,360 --> 00:57:14,920
synopsize all the jokes. 
And it turned out it was a 

1250
00:57:14,920 --> 00:57:17,440
teacher, not a student. 
Have you seen The 6th Sense, the

1251
00:57:17,440 --> 00:57:20,160
movie about the kid who sees? 
Yeah, I have. 

1252
00:57:20,280 --> 00:57:21,440
Yeah. 
This is something you want to 

1253
00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:22,040
say? 
I see. 

1254
00:57:22,040 --> 00:57:25,200
I haven't seen the Titanic now. 
Is that sad in the end? 

1255
00:57:26,280 --> 00:57:27,480
Because it looks like it looks 
great. 

1256
00:57:27,480 --> 00:57:28,920
What angle you're looking at it 
from? 

1257
00:57:28,960 --> 00:57:30,720
Okay, Iceberger. 
Both. 

1258
00:57:30,760 --> 00:57:33,520
Yeah, okay. 
If you're a fan of big iceberg 

1259
00:57:33,520 --> 00:57:35,640
hits like that's a. 
YouTube couple. 

1260
00:57:35,640 --> 00:57:38,880
I mean, I love lettuce, Yeah. 
And also things that break off 

1261
00:57:38,880 --> 00:57:42,960
from a flow. 
Yeah, that that is true. 

1262
00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:46,880
That is, I was I was buckled. 
Well, it wasn't that I wasn't 

1263
00:57:46,880 --> 00:57:48,600
out buckled. 
I was I was a little bit well on

1264
00:57:48,600 --> 00:57:51,120
I was I was leaving the loft bar
in the Gila blue and I cycled 

1265
00:57:51,120 --> 00:57:53,720
home and I broke a lice. 
I broke a couple of lights and 

1266
00:57:53,720 --> 00:57:56,360
the the blue lights came on 
behind me and then of course, 

1267
00:57:56,360 --> 00:57:58,640
had to chase me through two or 
three lights and because I was 

1268
00:57:58,640 --> 00:58:00,760
buckle, I was like Jesus, 
someone's in trouble. 

1269
00:58:02,360 --> 00:58:05,120
I was like, whoa, someone's 
really in trouble and I'm keep 

1270
00:58:05,120 --> 00:58:07,200
going. 
And he pulled in front of me and

1271
00:58:07,320 --> 00:58:11,000
it was a north bridge there and 
I'll never forget this. 

1272
00:58:11,240 --> 00:58:16,360
He goes, he says to me, yeah, do
you normally do that? 

1273
00:58:16,360 --> 00:58:19,640
And I was like, what? 
And I fiddly diddly, diddly did 

1274
00:58:19,640 --> 00:58:21,120
up a bit, Yeah. 
Because I thought I might get 

1275
00:58:21,120 --> 00:58:23,120
away with this if I if I'm not 
from here. 

1276
00:58:23,160 --> 00:58:25,200
Yes. 
And he said to me, and would you

1277
00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:26,880
would you cycle through a red 
light at home? 

1278
00:58:27,040 --> 00:58:30,000
And I went, no, no, no, no, 
I've, I've a car at all. 

1279
00:58:31,800 --> 00:58:35,600
He didn't like that at all. 
And then he went and he said, I 

1280
00:58:35,600 --> 00:58:37,440
could have saved your life 
tonight because if you've gone 

1281
00:58:37,440 --> 00:58:40,160
through the next lights and were
hit by a car and you could be 

1282
00:58:40,160 --> 00:58:44,360
dead, which is a good point. 
And of course, I said, I said to

1283
00:58:44,360 --> 00:58:47,920
him, and you haven't stopped me.
I'd probably be home by now and 

1284
00:58:48,800 --> 00:58:51,360
none of this is working out. 
And then he said, what's your 

1285
00:58:51,360 --> 00:58:53,320
name? 
And I just didn't want to, I 

1286
00:58:53,320 --> 00:58:55,000
just didn't want to be on a book
somewhere. 

1287
00:58:55,200 --> 00:58:59,920
And I said John Delahunty or 
Michael, I don't know. 

1288
00:58:59,920 --> 00:59:01,360
All I could think of there was 
Michael Stone. 

1289
00:59:02,640 --> 00:59:04,280
He would have been on the book. 
So yeah, yeah, yeah. 

1290
00:59:04,280 --> 00:59:05,680
I said Mike Ward or something 
like this. 

1291
00:59:05,680 --> 00:59:06,920
And he went, really? 
And I went, you know, 

1292
00:59:06,920 --> 00:59:08,360
absolutely. 
And he said, you know, you can't

1293
00:59:08,360 --> 00:59:10,280
like, you can't like to a police
officer anyway. 

1294
00:59:10,280 --> 00:59:11,440
No, it's absolutely Michael 
Ward. 

1295
00:59:11,440 --> 00:59:14,240
He goes because it says Neil 
Delimer on a poster behind your 

1296
00:59:14,240 --> 00:59:16,440
head. 
And I had stopped in front of my

1297
00:59:16,440 --> 00:59:18,080
own Edinburgh French Festival 
post. 

1298
00:59:18,240 --> 00:59:19,960
And, you know, in the early days
there's none. 

1299
00:59:19,960 --> 00:59:22,560
You've only got 4 posters. 
Yeah, for a whole city. 

1300
00:59:22,560 --> 00:59:24,000
And I'd stopped in front of 
mine. 

1301
00:59:24,160 --> 00:59:27,080
I'm gonna get like that. 
So not only you stopped your 

1302
00:59:27,080 --> 00:59:29,120
own. 
He knows where you're going to 

1303
00:59:29,120 --> 00:59:32,440
be for the next 25 nights. 
He doesn't even have to get you 

1304
00:59:32,440 --> 00:59:34,000
tonight. 
He can wait. 

1305
00:59:34,000 --> 00:59:36,560
You've done 25 nights to know 
people and then turn up on the 

1306
00:59:36,560 --> 00:59:39,920
final night and do you. 
And then he just laughed his 

1307
00:59:39,920 --> 00:59:41,400
head off because it was so 
inept. 

1308
00:59:41,400 --> 00:59:43,880
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 
But yeah, I remember doing and 

1309
00:59:43,880 --> 00:59:45,360
doing that and I. 
Remember that stand up, but 

1310
00:59:45,360 --> 00:59:48,280
always I remember watching that.
That yeah, that big. 

1311
00:59:48,600 --> 00:59:51,680
And then it was that I was at 
the end of it was like, you do 

1312
00:59:51,680 --> 00:59:53,240
it, never going. 
I was embarrassed. 

1313
00:59:53,360 --> 00:59:55,600
He was angry. 
The other people in the rickshaw

1314
00:59:56,160 --> 00:59:59,360
furious and you just build it up
and then you hit them. 

1315
00:59:59,360 --> 01:00:02,080
But it's not always nice to do a
little turn like that, A little 

1316
01:00:02,080 --> 01:00:04,960
weird turn at the end I. 
Like I like, yeah, I like Rick 

1317
01:00:04,960 --> 01:00:09,400
shows me and Dave Alley took one
London go from McDonald's to the

1318
01:00:09,400 --> 01:00:11,040
hotel. 
Who doesn't like a rickshaw? 

1319
01:00:11,040 --> 01:00:13,120
Brilliant. 
I think that should be your 

1320
01:00:13,120 --> 01:00:14,280
epitaph. 
The driver. 

1321
01:00:15,120 --> 01:00:23,880
Of I'm not killing you, but just
if you have a Bulgaria Sofia. 

1322
01:00:24,760 --> 01:00:28,360
No, I thought epitaph was. 
Oh, Epitaph was the capital. 

1323
01:00:28,800 --> 01:00:30,120
I thought you just naming 
Wombles I. 

1324
01:00:33,200 --> 01:00:35,760
Don't know what epitaph. 
Epitaph spots written in your 

1325
01:00:35,760 --> 01:00:37,120
gravestone. 
Pretty much, yeah. 

1326
01:00:37,600 --> 01:00:40,680
I think if you have an amazing 
life, I know it just goes 

1327
01:00:41,080 --> 01:00:44,640
electric, I think people will 
go. 

1328
01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:46,880
That's a fun. 
That sounds fun, guy. 

1329
01:00:47,120 --> 01:00:49,080
Yeah, a bit of fun. 
Yeah, that's a bit of fun, I 

1330
01:00:49,080 --> 01:00:50,240
think. 
I think it would just. 

1331
01:00:50,240 --> 01:00:52,720
I think people would really want
to look up your story. 

1332
01:00:52,720 --> 01:00:54,280
Yeah. 
In years to come, if you were 

1333
01:00:54,280 --> 01:00:55,880
walking through a misty 
graveyard. 

1334
01:00:55,960 --> 01:00:57,680
Yeah. 
And it says rather than we lost 

1335
01:00:57,680 --> 01:00:59,600
him too soon, elect pictures. 
Yeah. 

1336
01:00:59,760 --> 01:01:02,640
I think people would go, yeah, 
there's a story. 

1337
01:01:02,640 --> 01:01:04,360
Character. 
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 

1338
01:01:05,240 --> 01:01:08,320
Umm, Neil, you're the whole 
What's the Turkle? 

1339
01:01:08,880 --> 01:01:12,120
I always call my tour stupid 
names, so my first, one of the 

1340
01:01:12,120 --> 01:01:14,600
ones early doors was The Fresh 
Prince of Delamere. 

1341
01:01:14,680 --> 01:01:15,960
Yeah, which I was very happy 
with. 

1342
01:01:16,000 --> 01:01:19,760
I wonder when you're saying that
it triggers this thing where all

1343
01:01:19,760 --> 01:01:22,880
the lights go off. 
It's OK, It's OK. 

1344
01:01:22,880 --> 01:01:29,000
We're good. 
Now which one is? 

1345
01:01:29,000 --> 01:01:34,040
This is this where we hey, this 
and this is the part of the 

1346
01:01:34,040 --> 01:01:36,920
podcast where we get intimate 
looks like. 

1347
01:01:38,600 --> 01:01:41,440
So I had Fresh Prince Dell Amir 
last year was called Neil by 

1348
01:01:41,440 --> 01:01:43,720
mouse because I was talking and 
it was me. 

1349
01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:46,960
And this one is called Achilles 
Neil because I always run out 

1350
01:01:46,960 --> 01:01:49,680
with silly names, but it's 
called Achilles Neil. 

1351
01:01:49,680 --> 01:01:53,800
There will be no Greek mythology
units, but it's about the mad 

1352
01:01:53,800 --> 01:01:56,880
stuff I've done this year or the
interesting stuff, including me 

1353
01:01:56,880 --> 01:02:00,440
and Murphy doing High Road, Low 
Rd, which is an RT issue. 

1354
01:02:00,440 --> 01:02:04,160
Yeah, go on, go on and hold this
together briefly, Neil. 

1355
01:02:04,160 --> 01:02:05,320
Clubbing. 
What? 

1356
01:02:05,720 --> 01:02:07,600
Neil Clubbing. 
Deal. 

1357
01:02:07,760 --> 01:02:09,000
Or we're going through this. 
Yeah. 

1358
01:02:10,120 --> 01:02:13,560
That was on the reject, rejected
list, along with sexual 

1359
01:02:13,560 --> 01:02:19,000
kneeling, which we thought was a
step too far at Neil 

1360
01:02:19,000 --> 01:02:26,480
Desperandom. 
Yeah, Ian Neil. 

1361
01:02:27,760 --> 01:02:29,480
Yeah, it's harder than the 
looks. 

1362
01:02:32,280 --> 01:02:34,960
I mean, who turns up to a show 
called Ian Neil? 

1363
01:02:35,640 --> 01:02:39,800
And also my also my brother is 
called Ian. 

1364
01:02:39,800 --> 01:02:42,760
So it's just, you're just 
listing my family members. 

1365
01:02:42,800 --> 01:02:45,840
That's all it is. 
We'd look out into an MPSC. 

1366
01:02:46,080 --> 01:02:48,120
There will be one person. 
It's a guy out there with a 

1367
01:02:48,120 --> 01:02:50,600
wonky, wonky wrist and nobody 
else. 

1368
01:02:50,760 --> 01:02:52,920
No honest family. 
They always come and see me. 

1369
01:02:53,000 --> 01:02:56,920
They've haunted me down, yeah. 
So come and see that show. 

1370
01:02:57,200 --> 01:02:58,560
And also. 
Neil Worm. 

1371
01:02:59,200 --> 01:03:07,480
Neil Worm like meal worm. 
OK, OK, yeah. 

1372
01:03:07,800 --> 01:03:10,560
Neil of approval. 
Yeah. 

1373
01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:17,040
Neil Hall, Someone you see Keel 
hold someone, it's punishment. 

1374
01:03:17,040 --> 01:03:18,360
You tied them to the bottom of a
boat. 

1375
01:03:18,640 --> 01:03:20,560
Oh yeah. 
He had the idea, yeah. 

1376
01:03:22,080 --> 01:03:25,160
Push right off, right off,
