1
00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:02,960
I'm Michael. 
Che and I'm Colin Jose, and 

2
00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:05,280
we've got a little secret. 
Actually, it's a pretty big 

3
00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:06,480
secret. 
Well, now you got to give the 

4
00:00:06,480 --> 00:00:08,360
people something. 
I'm not saying a word. 

5
00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:09,920
Oh, then people will know to 
tune in. 

6
00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:12,080
Come on, tell them a little. 
Like how we're hosting of comedy

7
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:14,640
events streaming only on 
Peacock, exactly how it's called

8
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:17,200
New York After Dark and it's a 
comedy show that only features 

9
00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:18,960
drop in comic. 
Boom, you nail. 

10
00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:20,360
Into Michael Chase phone 
numbers. 

11
00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:21,960
Whoa, whoa, whoa. 
Hey, hey, hey. 

12
00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:25,720
New York After Dark. 
It's some kind of comedy thing, 

13
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:28,000
and it's streaming now only on 
Peacock. 

14
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:41,320
You love it. 
Cheers, everyone. 

15
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:46,560
Welcome to episode 100 of the 
Tea with Me podcast With me. 

16
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:50,080
She and Todd and I did a cheers 
and then I didn't take a little 

17
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:52,240
sip on my tea because I'm 
worried that some people go. 

18
00:00:52,480 --> 00:00:54,800
I don't like the sound. 
If you drown, give a fuck. 

19
00:00:54,800 --> 00:01:00,120
It's episode 100. 
It's episode 100 of this thing, 

20
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:04,920
which is not because we only 
really started this in I think 

21
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:08,800
it was February last year, just 
before lockdown was. 

22
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:12,360
I don't know. 
But what I do know is we've come

23
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:17,120
a long way. 
We've come a long way without 

24
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,600
you, my friend. 
I like that song a lot. 

25
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,800
That's on by Charlie Puth or 
Perth, not pews. 

26
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:29,040
If I was called Charlie Puth, I 
would tell people because Perth,

27
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:33,080
like Perth sounds like the noise
you make when you sit down on a,

28
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,720
you know, like a big chunky 
city, big chunky leather city 

29
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,200
Perth. 
But yeah, I would 100% tell 

30
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:44,440
people my name is Charlie Puth 
just just to amuse myself, you 

31
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:45,440
know? 
But that. 

32
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:47,040
But yeah, what about when that 
song? 

33
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:51,920
It's been a long day. 
When it came out and then and it

34
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:54,720
was used in Fast and Furious and
it was about Paul Walker, really

35
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:59,360
Paul Walker and Vin Diesel. 
And I like the message that that

36
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:01,640
was conveyed because obviously, 
like, I mean, I like Fast and 

37
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:03,840
Furious films. 
I know they're not, you know, 

38
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:05,520
they're not going to win Oscars,
but they're fun. 

39
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:07,520
It's but like this podcast, 
look, it's not going to win at 

40
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:11,400
the word podcast awards in the 
Latin section, but it hopefully 

41
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:12,520
is a bit of fun. 
Yeah. 

42
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:14,080
When that when that song came 
out. 

43
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:18,480
Why are they taking 7 minutes 
just just to get my thought on 

44
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,280
this. 
So yeah, they had like a CGI 

45
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,640
Paul Walker in one car and then 
actual Vin Diesel in the other 

46
00:02:24,640 --> 00:02:25,920
car. 
What they should have done is 

47
00:02:25,920 --> 00:02:29,120
also CGI Vin Diesel because Vin 
Diesel just looked like Vin 

48
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,200
Diesel a guy and Paul Walker 
looked like he had been 

49
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,320
animated. 
And I thought that was a bit 

50
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,400
weird. 
It was a nice gesture, but part 

51
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:40,880
of me was going just animate big
Vin too, you know? 

52
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,240
But these things happen Fast and
Furious. 

53
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,280
I mean, I don't know how many, 
but I think I've been in a few, 

54
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,760
the Fast and Furious, you know 
it, there's been not many of 

55
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:50,920
them. 
I remember when I went to see 

56
00:02:50,920 --> 00:02:52,880
the first one, I took a girl on 
date. 

57
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:57,360
We went to see Fast and Furious.
And then, and this actually 

58
00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:58,680
happened on my first date as 
well. 

59
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,080
She brought two of her friends. 
She thought it was a group 

60
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:02,640
thing. 
And I and I didn't and I was 

61
00:03:02,640 --> 00:03:05,520
just terrible myself. 
And and that's, and that's what 

62
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:07,280
it is. 
Oh, I miss the cinema anyway. 

63
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:08,960
I mean, I'm, I don't really go 
to the cinema. 

64
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:11,680
Look, I'm just not for God's 
sake. 

65
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:13,520
I'm nervous because it's episode
100. 

66
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:18,360
It's a milestone. 
And you know, I've said this in 

67
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,760
the podcast before, but I used 
to do a podcast called The Shane

68
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:25,320
Todd Cast, which would win at 
the word Podcast Award for best 

69
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,600
title, The Shane Todd Cast, but 
it was sporadic. 

70
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:35,040
You know, it was a little bit 
like your die you it was around 

71
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:37,480
for a while, then it sort of 
went away. 

72
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:39,760
Then it would come back and you 
were like, yes, and you got 2 

73
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:41,280
episodes in a row. 
You know, you've got same two 

74
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:44,120
weeks in a row and then you just
didn't see it for six months, 

75
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,920
which is not what as a child 
happened with my dad. 

76
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:51,280
That makes it sound like a 
terrible story like that. 

77
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:55,800
I don't, but I do remember a 
childhood friend who said that 

78
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:59,680
they're mom's boyfriend. 
He was like, oh, just going to 

79
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:01,080
the chemist to pick a 
prescription. 

80
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:04,240
Then he never came back and I 
was too young to ask this 

81
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,640
question, but I said what was he
going to get? 

82
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,720
Like why was he away? 
What why did he get lost? 

83
00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:14,520
And then my friend was like, no,
he left us like, but part of me 

84
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,440
was going, well, maybe there was
just a big queue, you know. 

85
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:19,880
My mate said, well though, what 
would he be getting? 

86
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,320
It was worth waiting. 
You know, this happened seven 

87
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:23,880
years ago. 
So what, you know, why would why

88
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,240
would you be waiting seven years
in a queue for a chemist in 

89
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:27,800
Bangor? 
That's too specific. 

90
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:31,560
But we've had them all on the 
pod. 

91
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:35,520
We've had some amazing. 
Let me just look through some of

92
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:37,840
the guests that we've had here 
because here's what we're doing.

93
00:04:37,840 --> 00:04:39,520
It's like the last day of term. 
We're having a wee bit of a 

94
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,040
celebration. 
I've got a guest. 

95
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:45,000
It's a Party's Day special and 
the title gives it away, Saint 

96
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,560
Patrick himself. 
I have got Paddy Barnes coming 

97
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,600
on the pod today to join me as 
my guest. 

98
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,120
I love Paddy. 
He's a national treasure. 

99
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,480
He's brilliant and I've wanted 
to get him on the podcast for 

100
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:57,800
ages. 
But it was one of those ones 

101
00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,800
where at the time I was trying 
to do it, the restrictions kept 

102
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:04,040
changing, you know, and I was 
like, yeah, well, maybe we'll do

103
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:05,520
it then we'll weren't, then 
we'll wear them weren't. 

104
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:07,760
So we're doing it over Zoom. 
But when we get the studio 

105
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:11,520
sorted, we'll bring him in and 
and hopefully he'll be up for 

106
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:14,800
doing an episode. 
But and then next week we've got

107
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:16,400
another Patrick. 
We've got Patrick Kildee next 

108
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,560
week. 
So, you know, maybe we just keep

109
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:20,960
going and we always have 
Patrick's, we have Patrick 

110
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:24,480
Stewart, Paddy McGuinness. 
Now we have to end it there 

111
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:26,240
because I don't really know any 
more parties. 

112
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:30,960
And well, so yeah, we've had 
Jesus. 

113
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:35,080
We've had, we've had them all. 
The first ever episode we did of

114
00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:38,960
this podcast I'm pretty sure 
was. 

115
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,440
Hold on. 
Oh, there's old Shane top cast 

116
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,720
episodes that are still up there
if you care. 

117
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:51,480
The first ever episode was a 
solo episode I think. 

118
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:54,400
Yeah, the first tee with me was 
a solo episode. 

119
00:05:54,840 --> 00:05:56,920
And then and there's no. 
Video for it, which is weird. 

120
00:05:57,280 --> 00:06:00,200
Then the second episode was with
Sam Holiday from Tudor Cinema 

121
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:01,360
Club. 
That was my first guest 

122
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:06,120
interview in the old studio, 
which we put so much work into 

123
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:09,080
and then left as soon as I 
started doing this podcast. 

124
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:12,520
Then Stephen Watson was the 2nd 
guest. 

125
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:19,320
Jim Owen, you know, then we're 
in lockdown like 9, well, 8 

126
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,760
episodes in we were really in 
lockdown. 

127
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,800
So then I just started asking 
like a load of different people.

128
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:31,760
Episode 11 Eamonn Holmes 13 
Jamie Dornan, which obviously is

129
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:35,800
the most listened to episode 
that we've ever done and was 

130
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:42,440
just so much fun as an episode. 
Let me see Liam McCord on 

131
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:44,720
Colgan. 
These are just ones that are 

132
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:48,960
catching my Jamie Lee O'Donnell 
and loads of solo ones as well 

133
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:53,080
and I will get back to doing 
more solo episodes then 

134
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,920
obviously I've had you know the 
likes of Kieran Bartlett on 

135
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:59,080
Mickey, Colin, Dave, Aaron 
McCann. 

136
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:01,680
I've had a load of friends on 
like a load of times. 

137
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:07,000
Paddy McDonnell, of course, I 
just, yeah, load the. 

138
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,560
So I always say I'm going to get
back in the solo episodes. 

139
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,360
I haven't done one in a long 
time, but I definitely will get 

140
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:16,560
back into them. 
I mean, just listen to some of 

141
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:18,680
these titles. 
Burning the digit, Little money,

142
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,840
Toad Slim shiny, the way the 
cookie crumbles. 

143
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:23,840
How has this been going for a 
year? 

144
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:29,680
Christian Aaron from Game of 
Thrones, Aaron Butler's been on 

145
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:33,080
for a load of episodes. 
Terry George, Oscar winning 

146
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:36,840
director and these are all on 
YouTube on my channel. 

147
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,640
If if you ever want to go back 
and watch any of them, then some

148
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,560
of my favourite comedians like 
Joe Les Giannis Pappas, Mark 

149
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:47,800
Normand, Conor McNeil, the great
local actor was on who who's 

150
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:52,040
absolutely killing it and see 
genuinely like people say. 

151
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,320
And by the way, the last episode
was Sean McComb went down so 

152
00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,240
well. 
People when I'm chatting to them

153
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:01,360
about the podcast, whether it's 
in the shop or out and about, 

154
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:04,760
people always say, is anybody a 
Dick? 

155
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:08,680
You know, that I've had on or 
that has anyone not been like 

156
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:12,040
the way you would think 
Genuinely, right. 

157
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:15,680
There's nobody I've had on that 
I wouldn't have back on. 

158
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:21,160
And the only episode I've done 
where I went on no was when I 

159
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:27,120
had Todd Barry on, who is a 
phenomenal stand up based in New

160
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:28,560
York. 
I mean, if you watch or listen 

161
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:31,280
to the podcast regularly, you 
know, I have a wee bit of a an 

162
00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:34,919
obsession with the New York 
comedy scene I mentioned I find 

163
00:08:34,919 --> 00:08:36,360
some way to mention in every 
podcast. 

164
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:40,559
I've gigged in New York and I 
told Barry on and told Barry's a

165
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:44,520
very dry comedian. 
He is so good. 

166
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:51,960
But he's like the one speed and 
he is a real original act. 

167
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:56,960
And I got it wrong with what I 
thought it was going to be. 

168
00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:59,200
You know, sometimes you think 
when you have a comedian on, you

169
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,760
just sort of go tell me a funny 
story and you leave them to it. 

170
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,880
So it was kind of me who like 
not messed up the episode, but 

171
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,800
definitely you can go back and 
listen to it. 

172
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:12,200
Let's just say my interview 
skills were were very poor on 

173
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:15,760
them. 
And that is very what would you 

174
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:17,560
say? 
Big of me to say that because 

175
00:09:17,560 --> 00:09:19,160
I'm a very humble and talented 
guy. 

176
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:25,600
But, but honestly, I mean, any, 
any message I get on Instagram 

177
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,680
or Twitter or whatever where 
people say and look, I'm not 

178
00:09:28,680 --> 00:09:30,480
getting thousands of these, but 
you know what I mean, where 

179
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,920
somebody goes or I listen to the
podcast every week, it keeps me 

180
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,240
seeing during lockdown or it 
gives me laugh during lockdown. 

181
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:39,400
Like that means so much. 
And it's class for me to do it 

182
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:43,000
as well because you feel like 
you are in a way performing to 

183
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,520
an audience or even though it's 
way more laid back, you're still

184
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,680
interacting with an audience. 
So I've got to say a big thank 

185
00:09:48,680 --> 00:09:51,440
you to anybody who's listened to
or watched the podcast in the 

186
00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,520
last year. 
And we've done 100 episodes. 

187
00:09:55,840 --> 00:10:00,360
I think by episode 200, I would 
hope that we have a, let's just 

188
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:04,360
say a better setup because 
obviously because of COVID, my 

189
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:06,840
setup at the minute quite a lot 
of times is my kitchen. 

190
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:09,840
I'm normally in the living room,
but I've, I've moved, I've 

191
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:14,000
transferred into my kitchen. 
So we're work, we're going to 

192
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:17,160
see more studios in the next 
couple of weeks and get 

193
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,960
ourselves like a bigger, a 
bigger place to work out of and 

194
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:21,880
do the video podcast and that 
kind of thing. 

195
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:25,600
So the podcast is growing all 
the time and I see that with the

196
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:28,720
amount of people who download 
and listen to it and try and 

197
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:31,640
listen to you a lot as much as 
possible for potential guests 

198
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,640
that people want on as well. 
You know, I, I just go for it. 

199
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:37,080
Like I just asked and if people 
don't want to do it, they don't 

200
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:39,080
want to do it. 
Like, obviously the famous time 

201
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:42,680
where I asked Snoop Dogg to do 
the podcast, but I copied and 

202
00:10:42,680 --> 00:10:44,640
pasted a message I just sent to 
Jamie Foxx. 

203
00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,760
Snoop Dogg was the next person I
messaged and I started the 

204
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:49,320
message to Snoop Dogg with. 
Hey, Jamie. 

205
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:51,880
So. 
I think about wasn't for that. 

206
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:53,560
He would have done in fact, the 
thing of wasn't for that. 

207
00:10:53,560 --> 00:10:55,760
He would be Co hosting the 
podcast and it'd be called tea 

208
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:58,440
with me and also a big fat 
blonde. 

209
00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:04,640
A big fat blonde is also caught 
me rhyme and slang not for Snoop

210
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:05,760
Dogg. 
I'm not slamming Snoop Dogg. 

211
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:07,080
Don't start a beef between me 
and Snoop. 

212
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:10,840
Imagine that. 
Imagine I just got into like a 

213
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:17,480
full beef with Snoop Dogg and it
really like escalated, you know,

214
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,800
like I like I was over in LA, 
you know, getting in the 

215
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:23,480
scuffles in a nightclub. 
And then he's, you know, he's 

216
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,640
the Maple bar in Hollywood 
throwing bottles at me. 

217
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:29,280
It'd be a bit of fun. 
I would definitely be up for a 

218
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,320
few years or Snoop if you're 
watching let's get a go and you 

219
00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:37,320
twat, I love Snoop Dogg. 
There's a Snoop Dogg song I love

220
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:41,200
called Lay Low, which is on one 
of the albums of Snoop Dogg's 

221
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:43,080
that I've bought before, which 
sounds like a lie. 

222
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,320
But genuinely, I have a couple 
of Snoop Dogg albums. 

223
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:48,320
This one had a cartoon was a 
cult dog pond. 

224
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:51,960
It had a cartoon dog buying 
prison bars on the front and a 

225
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:53,920
timid Nate Dogg. 
And any song with Nate Dogg was 

226
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:57,040
always good. 
You know, and I wish Nate Dogg 

227
00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:58,720
had. 
I just experimented with more 

228
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:02,080
artists who weren't necessarily 
just rappers like Speaking of 

229
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:06,120
blunt, like James Blunt, and I 
was going to do impression of 

230
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,680
what that would sound like, but 
I don't have enough time to come

231
00:12:08,680 --> 00:12:12,920
up with it. 
This podcast is sponsored before

232
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:17,600
we get into the episode with 
Paddy Barnes, who I'm such a 

233
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:19,720
said earlier in the book, I'm 
such a big fan of. 

234
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:22,680
I was a big fan of him when he 
was boxing. 

235
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,080
I thought he was a real 
entertainer and the sort of guy 

236
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:29,400
that and I don't know a lot 
about boxing, but he feel a lot 

237
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:32,000
of boxers like are very 
methodical about who they fight.

238
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:35,640
You know, they go right, well, I
want to have 5, five fights 

239
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,680
taking it easy and then I'll try
and step up a bit and then 

240
00:12:38,680 --> 00:12:41,240
eventually I'll fight this guy. 
Paddy Barnes always just seemed 

241
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,040
that like real Belfast spirit. 
He seemed to just always want to

242
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,640
fight the best guy, take the 
biggest fights. 

243
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:48,800
He want to win a world title 
quickly. 

244
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:51,280
I think he wanted to like break 
a record for the quickest person

245
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:53,280
to a world title from the 
amateurs. 

246
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:55,240
I think I might have that wrong.
He'll definitely correct me on 

247
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:59,440
that but but he's just a 
brilliant character and the 

248
00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:03,680
nicest guy he was in Belfast 
Blues, he killed it in Belfast 

249
00:13:03,680 --> 00:13:05,440
Blues each. 
Like we were fucking up all 

250
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:10,040
these takes so bad. 
Paddy Barnes shows up wearing a 

251
00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:14,480
Canada Goose jacket in the Holy 
Lands where we're filming. 

252
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:19,640
He does 2 takes and then he goes
and it was most genuinely 

253
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:22,560
masterful act and he killed it 
and that exactly what we wanted 

254
00:13:22,560 --> 00:13:25,120
him to do. 
But yeah, we're sponsored by 

255
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:29,120
Manscape before I bring Paddy on
on my Paddy's Day episode, 

256
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:33,120
respondedbymanscape.com 
Manscape, as you know, is a 

257
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,200
number one in man's below the 
belt crewmen. 

258
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:39,160
All right, you know, they've got
the lawnmower 3 point O for, 

259
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:41,480
let's just say whacking your 
weeds. 

260
00:13:42,560 --> 00:13:45,600
You know what I'm saying? 
Like it literally like let's be 

261
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:47,360
a frontal. 
But if you want, because you 

262
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:49,560
know, there's period art in 
Belfast that people are freaking

263
00:13:49,560 --> 00:13:54,160
out about and taken down because
it seems that some men, some 

264
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:57,160
people in Belfast are too scared
to talk about periods. 

265
00:13:57,400 --> 00:13:59,000
I'm not scared to talk about 
periods. 

266
00:13:59,960 --> 00:14:02,400
Not that I'm not scared, but 
like, listen, it depends how 

267
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:06,600
it's brought up. 
You know, you know, if I'm at 

268
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:09,240
the garage and somebody just 
comes up to me right beside me 

269
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:12,120
and breaks social distance and 
things and just says period 

270
00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:15,040
thoughts, I would I would be 
uncomfortable. 

271
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,200
But if you want to have a sit 
down conversation about periods,

272
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,280
I will do that. 
But I don't know why you'd want 

273
00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:23,480
to have it with me. 
But let's talk about pubes. 

274
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:26,720
Talking. 
About Pubes is a gateway in the 

275
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:30,280
talking about periods. 
So yeah, manscape.com.

Got to plug another couple of 
things real quick. 

288
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:06,600
I'm doing another night. 
At Belfast SSE. 

289
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:10,840
Arena mad that I'm doing one. 
Hey, I'm doing 2 hey tickets for

290
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:17,200
the second one flying, flying 
people, people saying you know 

291
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:19,520
putting up Instagram stories 
saying I'm in the 2nd row. 

292
00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:21,120
I'm in the third row. 
I'm in the 4th row. 

293
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:23,520
Get the good tickets. 
Get them. 

294
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:26,640
I'm doing it on the 6th. 
I think this is right, the 6th 

295
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:28,680
of November and the 13th of 
November. 

296
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:30,480
You can get tickets on 
Ticketmaster. 

297
00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:35,800
My brand new show Chancellor. 
Also, I'm going to plug the TV 

298
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:38,360
show that's on tonight. 
Me and Dave Elliott, The Rave 

299
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:42,200
lockdown is on BBC One Northern 
Ireland tonight, 10:45. 

300
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:46,360
It's the radio show done on TV. 
You'll see me posting about it. 

301
00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:49,760
It was a real laugh to do it. 
I haven't seen it. 

302
00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:53,720
I don't know how it turned out. 
It was a lot of fun in the night

303
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:57,760
and I think if we can, if we can
show how much fun it was, I 

304
00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:01,000
think people will enjoy it and 
it look, you can't go. 

305
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:03,760
It's shit that you can't go out 
for parties day, and I'm not 

306
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:06,200
saying this is a substitute, but
maybe if you want to crack open 

307
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:09,640
a stout and and have a drink 
with the boys on TV, that'd be a

308
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,240
good way to do it. 
So the rave lockdown tonight, 

309
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:14,640
which is the night this came 
out, but you can get on iPlayer 

310
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:17,960
if you're watching after this 
1045 BBC One Northern Ireland 

311
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:21,240
last thing, patreon.com/tea with
Me podcast if you want to 

312
00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:25,200
support the podcast, if you want
to get a bonus episode on 

313
00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:29,920
Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and 
then on Friday because I do 

314
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:32,800
breakfast brew, which is short 
daily podcasts. 

315
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:37,880
On Friday, we do a Zoom live 
podcast and my voice broke when 

316
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:40,880
I said live, Stephen Watson 
live. 

317
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:45,880
If you want to, you know, join 
those, you can ask questions as 

318
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:47,520
we do it live. 
And that's what we want to do in

319
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:50,280
the new studio. 
We want to get into a place 

320
00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:52,560
where we can live stream the 
podcast once a week like we do 

321
00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:54,480
on Fridays. 
But obviously make it look class

322
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,400
and have actual guessing 
patreon.com/T with me podcast. 

323
00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:59,000
We'll put it in the link down 
below. 

324
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:01,360
But let me welcome because it's 
Paddy's day. 

325
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:06,720
Let me welcome the paid the 
patron St of box and himself the

326
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:09,119
main man, my friend. 
Please welcome to the T with me 

327
00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:10,800
podcast. 
Paddy Barnes. 

328
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:21,200
Parties day courser that I have 
the man himself on Patty Barnes.

329
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:25,280
Patty, my first question for all
my guests is, do you drink tea 

330
00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:28,880
or are you sort of in the coffee
camp or what's your relationship

331
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:32,680
with tea? 
Well, every morning I will have 

332
00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:39,000
a cup of coffee, but during the 
day I have about 3 or 4 cups of 

333
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:40,240
tea. 
Yeah, yeah. 

334
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:44,280
I'm trying to cut down because I
have 3 sugars. 

335
00:17:45,120 --> 00:17:50,120
Any any any 3 sugars. 
But that then that's not tea. 

336
00:17:50,120 --> 00:17:52,040
You're just, you're just 
drinking Sweetwater. 

337
00:17:52,360 --> 00:17:55,560
Basically, and that's I just 
love the taste of it. 

338
00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:59,240
I don't know what it is so. 
I used to, I got into tea 

339
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:02,280
because whenever I was a kid my 
granny used to leave me. 

340
00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:04,560
This is stinking now but a bit 
of her tea. 

341
00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,720
I don't know if like loads of 
people actually you thinking in 

342
00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:11,000
tea was that my granny took like
2-3 sugars like you're saying 

343
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:16,520
and would leave me a bit of her 
tea so I'd drink cold cold sweet

344
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:20,480
tea and then I always had sugar 
and then eventually weaned 

345
00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:23,240
myself off it and now the idea 
of drinking sugar and tea 

346
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:27,360
disgusts me. 
You know what you say my 

347
00:18:27,360 --> 00:18:30,560
granny's a reason I have so much
sugar in my tea as well. 

348
00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:32,200
Because he used to have it 
herself. 

349
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:36,200
Yeah, and I can't be there. 
But tell me this when you're 

350
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:37,480
drinking tea. 
Yeah. 

351
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:40,720
Do you have a tix? 
David Twix. 

352
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:43,040
Our sorry, have you ever had 
tricks? 

353
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:45,640
We have baked both ends off and 
use as a straw. 

354
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:50,840
See stuff like that, that stuff,
I don't if you do that then fair

355
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:52,120
enough. 
But that stuff I don't believe 

356
00:18:52,120 --> 00:18:55,600
happens like people say oh, I 
get my chips and my Mcflurry. 

357
00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:58,440
I don't know anybody does that. 
I think it's just made-up, but. 

358
00:18:59,120 --> 00:19:02,200
Please do it. 
Well, I can't be, I can't be 

359
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,960
Twixes because I can't, I can't 
have dairy because, you know, 

360
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:08,120
from Hollywood, from North and 
we have dairy allergies. 

361
00:19:08,120 --> 00:19:11,840
But I, I actually actually, 
actually can't. 

362
00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,560
But there are Twix alternatives 
they can have. 

363
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:15,640
So what? 
Happens. 

364
00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:23,520
What happens if you have dairy? 
You die because believe me, this

365
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:28,360
is worth This is birth death. 
I mean, no, thankfully I don't 

366
00:19:28,360 --> 00:19:31,800
die, but I mean, what a way to 
go be like hardly. 

367
00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:38,920
Die COVID no Twix. 
He took a party sized Twix and 

368
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:44,280
you know, God bless him. 
No, I would just, I'd be OK if I

369
00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:46,880
had a wee bit of dairy, but if I
had a little bit more, let's 

370
00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:48,920
just say I would need a toilet 
nearby. 

371
00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:56,240
OK, well this is worth a trip to
the bog, believe me. 

372
00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:59,160
Yeah, fair enough. 
I mean, I do spend Easter just 

373
00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:01,720
sitting on the toilet. 
I can imagine. 

374
00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:06,080
I think Sean McComb got me into 
that. 

375
00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:09,640
There the tricks. 
Yeah, John McComb on a couple 

376
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:11,040
weeks ago. 
I don't know if you saw that, 

377
00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:13,920
but if you did, did it surprise?
Did you feel like that was 

378
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,760
someone you didn't know talking 
when he was saying about froth 

379
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:19,040
milk and hot milk and all that 
kind of thing? 

380
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:21,960
He's like. 
Because he's never made me one 

381
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:24,360
of those, so I was surprised and
disappointed. 

382
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:28,440
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 
Froth milk. 

383
00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:30,920
I could, I can believe like I 
just met like I've never met 

384
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:34,480
him. 
We just talked online and and we

385
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,280
we went actually like, let's go 
take away coffee before the 

386
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:39,760
podcast. 
And he said like, oh, can I get 

387
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:41,680
hot milk? 
And I didn't know how to look. 

388
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:44,360
I was like, oh Jesus, I'm joking
a lot. 

389
00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:46,640
You, you may have. 
I don't know if you remember, 

390
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:48,600
but you and me have been out for
a coffee. 

391
00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:52,440
Glasgow. 
In class we're at Glasgow, me 

392
00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:54,200
usually and. 
Tropicana Yeah, you're right. 

393
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:56,520
I'll tell you all, that's three 
big headers. 

394
00:20:57,600 --> 00:20:59,440
That's three big. 
Headers it was indeed. 

395
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:01,080
Yeah, yeah. 
And then we went. 

396
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:03,200
That was that. 
There was that night we went to 

397
00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:05,120
see you stand up. 
Yeah, it wasn't a good gig. 

398
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:06,520
I thought a good gig. 
Do you? 

399
00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:10,000
Know what the problem was? 
I mean, it's sometimes the 

400
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,800
slightest things in stand up 
really threw you off because it 

401
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,400
was in a nightclub. 
It was in the garage in Glasgow,

402
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:17,920
the stage, it was like a 
nightclub DJ stage. 

403
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:19,920
It was so high. 
I know if you remember the 

404
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:21,320
audience were like way down 
below me. 

405
00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:24,520
And it wasn't, it was, it was 
just a weird one. 

406
00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:26,520
I mean, it was OK, but it was, 
it was a bit of a weird one. 

407
00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:30,880
But you had a, you had a hot 
chocolate we went for we were 

408
00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:33,320
you putting on weight? 
Were you moving? 

409
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:35,440
On a little bit. 
Or you were losing weight. 

410
00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:36,840
All right. 
Oh, yeah, that's right. 

411
00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:40,800
I think you got a hot chocolate.
You got hot chocolate and Costa.

412
00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:43,240
And then you were like, oh, I'm 
trying to be striking my weight.

413
00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:45,040
And I thought you were going to,
like, bend the hot chocolate. 

414
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:46,640
And you took a few of the 
marshmallows off. 

415
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,880
Yeah, every little counts. 
And then you'll do shopping 

416
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:51,600
ballot Twix. 
Don't. 

417
00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:58,120
Tell him what? 
Yeah, there's loads. 

418
00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:02,120
There's loads that I want to 
talk to you about in boxing, 

419
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:04,680
outside of boxing. 
But see, first of all, can we 

420
00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:08,400
talk about you? 
You gave me one of the funniest 

421
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:13,320
moments and sometimes if I ever 
like feel down or slightly 

422
00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:16,240
unhappy, I know that if I watch 
the video. 

423
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:18,920
Review that your wife took. 
Falling off a bike in New York. 

424
00:22:19,120 --> 00:22:23,560
I know if I watch it I will feel
so much better and so much 

425
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:26,040
happier. 
For anyone who hasn't seen it, 

426
00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:29,120
usually in Central Park just on 
holiday. 

427
00:22:29,120 --> 00:22:31,560
Yeah, it's in the park. 
Yeah, for a weekend. 

428
00:22:32,120 --> 00:22:37,200
Mary, your wife was was filming 
and you were on a like a bike 

429
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:39,800
that you hire behind her. 
And I don't know what happened, 

430
00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:43,640
whether the steering, the 
handlebars went back to front or

431
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:47,960
whatever, but you just cope and 
it's it's a perfect time because

432
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:49,200
it's right at the end of the 
video do. 

433
00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:52,320
You know why the video end above
4? 

434
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:55,400
She didn't stop. 
She fell for a big laughing 

435
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,640
people. 
People must not genuinely think 

436
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:04,480
it was stage because how could 
happen? 

437
00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:08,280
I generally had I thought I'd 
pumped the back brake pause did,

438
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:12,200
but I was pulling it out of your
wheelie and it's been overt and 

439
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:15,160
I was reasonable because I 
thought like but by can I just 

440
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:17,560
put the beer. 
I thought the shreds. 

441
00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:21,880
I think turn it in the back 
working my coat, but thankfully 

442
00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:26,720
some Italian fella core and 
asked him was OK and I got up 

443
00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:32,320
after that but 10 minutes later 
flying down no hands had him 

444
00:23:32,360 --> 00:23:36,040
back so I'm not going to die. 
It was all. 

445
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:38,760
Right. 
Yeah, Yeah, that would be two 

446
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:40,960
terrible ways to die. 
Me with chocolate and you've 

447
00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:44,240
fallen off a bike because that 
is a work childlike thing. 

448
00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:48,240
I whenever I was about 18, I I 
didn't drive. 

449
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:51,040
I was 21 and I used to cycle 
everywhere, right? 

450
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:55,400
And I was cycling from my house 
down in Hollywood town centre 

451
00:23:56,160 --> 00:24:00,320
and I fell off my bike and I 
went over the handlebars and my 

452
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:03,200
like, look at this, right? 
And if anyone's not watching the

453
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:05,040
video version of the podcast, 
watch it for this. 

454
00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:07,120
See the difference between my 
wrists. 

455
00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:10,120
See this? 
Yeah, boom. 

456
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:14,040
I went over the handlebars, 
landed with my hand like this, 

457
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:17,720
and then the bone just went 
through my hand and I had to go 

458
00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:19,360
up the hospital. 
Like obviously straight away my 

459
00:24:19,360 --> 00:24:22,480
dad took me up the hospital and 
the woman at reception up at the

460
00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:24,120
Ulster was like, can you tell me
what happened? 

461
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:26,840
And I said, yeah, I fell off. 
My bike I've had an. 

462
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:31,200
Accident and she said was it a 
motorbike and I just had to go. 

463
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:34,760
It was like a boy's bike. 
It was like it was like a 

464
00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:37,240
child's bike. 
BMX. 

465
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:40,800
Yeah, so. 
So while I was laughing at your 

466
00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:42,800
video, exactly the same things 
happened to me. 

467
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:46,480
And yeah, that's not good luck. 
But here actually, before we go 

468
00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:51,120
into the podcast any further, 
obviously people know we can't 

469
00:24:51,120 --> 00:24:54,800
really talk properly, talk too 
fast, but keeping worse than I 

470
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:57,240
because I'm more Invisalign on 
the teeth I. 

471
00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:01,240
Mean. 
Have a list basically a bit I. 

472
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:06,680
I did the Invisalign thing as 
well and it's class and I like. 

473
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:09,520
We're book 2, but here I may 
watch this here. 

474
00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:12,440
And the one Invisalign 
themselves go to Grandson Dental

475
00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:20,560
Barnes, 50 from Gold. 
And that's the dip I've got. 

476
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:21,920
Serious. 
That's a serious plug, I mean. 

477
00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:25,320
It would be funny to do it as a 
joke, but then it's even funny 

478
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:26,560
when you're like, no, January 
that. 

479
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:28,840
Way that's real. 
Unbelievable. 

480
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:32,840
Did you approach them and say 
like, listen, you just know me 

481
00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:35,960
sort out my teeth or or was did 
they approach you? 

482
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:41,080
I just been what I didn't say 
listen of I need a Nicer's fix. 

483
00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:46,440
So yeah, let's do it and. 
Do is that one of the things 

484
00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:49,240
with boxing you wouldn't really 
do anything like that? 

485
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:52,720
Like why you're still boxing? 
Because although if you weren't 

486
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:54,920
a gum sheet, you wouldn't get 
your teeth that damage, would 

487
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,200
you? 
No, if he's praised, there's 

488
00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:59,560
people who do get their teeth 
knocked out, even gum. 

489
00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:03,040
She didn't. 
So like my tooth was bent and 

490
00:26:03,360 --> 00:26:05,120
like there's no point in effects
boxing. 

491
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:10,560
But now after I'm retired. 
Just an influencer now. 

492
00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:15,520
I love that. 
Teeth straight make it threaten 

493
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:18,600
my face hard on. 
I'll be great, you see, in our 

494
00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:19,840
next year. 
Be great. 

495
00:26:20,120 --> 00:26:23,280
See, whenever you see like that,
you know, the Sunday World or 

496
00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:24,880
Sunday life will do a story. 
Go on. 

497
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:28,200
You know, these paramilitaries 
said no money, but they're 

498
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:30,440
they've all gone to Turkey to 
get the teeth in the hair done. 

499
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:34,040
Part of me looks at that and 
goes that would be a decent trip

500
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:39,720
to be politics aside, that 
sounds like a decent trip coming

501
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:41,000
back. 
Come on. 

502
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:42,360
But here's the mistake to make 
right? 

503
00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:45,840
You me are doing this line. 
I'd like did it like a year ago 

504
00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:49,600
and if you're ever in Lisburn 
rule quote Todd for I want to, 

505
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:55,600
but imagine imagine I have my 
own deal and I just edited your 

506
00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:58,800
bit out of the podcast. 
I would take you to court. 

507
00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:04,440
Yeah, the get like getting the 
teeth on. 

508
00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:07,280
The problem people from here 
make when they go to like Turkey

509
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:10,800
and get the teeth done is they 
go for like the brightest white 

510
00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:13,720
to go for the brightest white. 
And that looks stupid. 

511
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:16,480
But I understand they've had a 
few drinks, they've had a few 

512
00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:19,160
fish bowls and ballroom or 
wherever they are in Turkey and 

513
00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:21,000
they go, listen, may as well 
just do it. 

514
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,960
Give me the highest shade. 
Yeah, when I get mine done, 

515
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:27,160
finished off and they ask for 
like a Belfast yellow tent. 

516
00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:32,640
Yeah, just. 
To keep fighting the ground, 

517
00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:34,360
Yeah. 
What was the thing? 

518
00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:38,800
Was it at the Olympics you had 
the you had the sign about 

519
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:40,360
sponsorship? 
Was that the Was that the 

520
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:42,240
opening ceremony of the 
Olympics? 

521
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:45,400
Yeah, that was the opening 
ceremony of the London Olympics 

522
00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:51,760
2012, because already for no 
tell the sorry the village ring 

523
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:54,160
beforehand. 
And there's ecologist Jay Hussey

524
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:56,720
saying, Paddy, you have to do 
something mad like me. 

525
00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:59,320
Why? 
It was because there's millions 

526
00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:00,440
and millions people watch this 
here. 

527
00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:02,840
You know what I mean? 
You know what? 

528
00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:07,320
You're right. 
So I'm going to do this here. 

529
00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:11,120
So when I get sponsors for 
sponsorship and. 

530
00:28:11,360 --> 00:28:14,520
You haven't wrote it right. 
But her name I put here, I wrote

531
00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:16,360
it. 
And like a barely filled amateur

532
00:28:16,360 --> 00:28:18,800
handle, they get to me made 
clear. 

533
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:21,560
But here 30,000 followers in 
about four hours. 

534
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:25,800
Obviously the opening ceremony 
of the Olympics, especially 

535
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:28,160
London, is one of the biggest TV
events in history. 

536
00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:32,920
And I imagine what you're told 
to do is just like be like the 

537
00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:35,800
rest of the athletes, sort of 
like, you know, represent who 

538
00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:38,800
you're representing with the 
head up and be respectful and 

539
00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:42,080
stuff. 
When you rolled out basically 

540
00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:45,920
like you'd sponsor my Twitter, 
Did you get, was there like 

541
00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:47,480
falling from that? 
Like did you get shit for that 

542
00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:50,800
from anyone? 
I can't remember, but I think 

543
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:52,840
there was words spoke with the 
coaches. 

544
00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:55,840
But here I didn't give a shit. 
I knew that one. 

545
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:59,680
But they're going to stop me. 
Like, yeah, they're they're 

546
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:01,760
overseen and stuff. 
I understand like the shift 

547
00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:04,560
admission needs to do the job 
not but I didn't care, you know,

548
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:08,720
I seen an opportunity, I can 
grab it and I paid off. 

549
00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:11,840
Did you have people like Because
Paddock? 

550
00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:13,800
Did you start working on Paddy 
Power around that time? 

551
00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:22,200
So I'll tell you what, 2016, I 
worked with Paddy Power and they

552
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:25,840
had like a fake Twitter beef, 
so. 

553
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:28,360
That's right. 
And then the renamed the shop in

554
00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:31,600
Dublin, I think it was Dorset St
Potty Barns to the party power. 

555
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:39,080
But the plan was so I was 
favoured for gold in 2016. 

556
00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:42,400
And it's not nothing. 
I people know this but the deal 

557
00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:46,920
was made to change my name by 
depot the party power. 

558
00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:53,080
But it couldn't be done the 
Olympic rules because it was too

559
00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:55,480
long of a period. 
I qualified as Poly barns, that 

560
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:57,680
wouldn't let me do it, but I was
down the game for it. 

561
00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:01,960
So you were going to change your
name by you were going to change

562
00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:06,800
your name legally. 
Yeah, to Poly barn, I was all 

563
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:08,960
hard. 
I was all hard by money. 

564
00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:12,480
Would you have changed? 
Would you have changed it back? 

565
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:20,520
Depends. 
I would have built it until. 

566
00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:23,840
I love it, Yeah. 
And yeah. 

567
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:26,000
And then you're just like, like 
many other betting companies, 

568
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:28,720
you can be party coral, you can 
be party bat fair, whatever 

569
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:38,520
Patty granted them. 
I love that. 

570
00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:41,520
I mean, it's one of those things
where you think especially 

571
00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:45,600
athletes at the Olympic Games 
and all that must be very boring

572
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:49,560
as well, like, you know, haven't
always, like, you know, toe the 

573
00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:51,400
line and fit in and do that kind
of thing. 

574
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:55,680
So when you do anything like 
slightly funny or different, it 

575
00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:58,040
makes such a big, such a big 
impression. 

576
00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:02,000
Like it's funny to people 
outside of the village and the 

577
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:06,840
games because see in in the big 
village, it's like a high 

578
00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:10,240
pressured environment because 
it's a bit important in the 

579
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:12,000
world. 
Like people have trained all 

580
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:15,200
their lives just to be an 
Olympian, not even the medal or 

581
00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:16,760
could be good just just to be an
Olympian. 

582
00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:20,400
So it's a high press pressure 
environment for in regards to 

583
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:24,880
like all these people are, 
they're late for the compete for

584
00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:26,360
the country now. 
I did too. 

585
00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:33,600
But the reason for me, I know 
this because I don't know the 

586
00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:35,800
reason for me being so 
successful because I was able to

587
00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:42,320
next, you know, like high end 
sport was fun because like if 

588
00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:47,120
you were dead serious and like 
trained meticulously and we're 

589
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:52,000
headstrong, it's easy to get 
like down to get. 

590
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,880
I think you feel down all the 
time if you didn't make succeed 

591
00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:55,880
every single time. 
So. 

592
00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:57,800
Well, you're a robot then, 
aren't you? 

593
00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:00,280
Like if you just. 
You're just a robot like more. 

594
00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:02,560
There's no enjoyment in sport 
then if you're like that, you 

595
00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:04,080
know what I mean? 
If you want to go my Olympic 

596
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:08,880
Games, you know, and you're one,
you're one of those people like,

597
00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:12,600
do I win that? 
Like expect, like if you look 

598
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:15,400
at, I mean, different sport, but
if you look at Tiger Woods, 

599
00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:16,800
like, I don't know if you 
watched that documentary 

600
00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:20,720
recently, that's somebody who 
obviously is one of the best at 

601
00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:23,560
all of all time and has achieved
so much. 

602
00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:25,920
But like, at what cost? 
You know what I mean? 

603
00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:30,120
Like you look at the, the, the, 
the drug addictions and, and 

604
00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:32,960
being totally obsessed. 
I think you got to have a life 

605
00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:34,440
too. 
Like you absolutely have to have

606
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:36,280
a life. 
And part of that is, yeah, 

607
00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:38,040
enjoying yourself and having 
laughs and. 

608
00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:44,440
I've been like I've been to see 
an ambitional favour people from

609
00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:48,240
Manicip to the Olympic but if I 
had to give out a bit of ice my 

610
00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:53,080
young kids home 3 would be like 
you know, yes train hard and 

611
00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:56,440
dedicate each other sport but 
equally try and enjoy the 

612
00:32:56,440 --> 00:32:58,080
moment. 
Like don't be like you know it's

613
00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:01,640
up to be our end all. 
For some it might seem so, but 

614
00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:04,720
honestly enjoy it as much as you
can so. 

615
00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:09,200
That's it's probably like a gig 
in a way. 

616
00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:11,560
I mean, at that like City 
Olympics, the stakes are 

617
00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:14,640
obviously higher. 
But like you can have a button 

618
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:17,320
no matter how much you plan for 
stand up or back yourself as 

619
00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:19,960
being really good, you can still
have a bad show. 

620
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:23,840
And I think you have to kind of 
be able to laugh about it in a 

621
00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:27,200
way and just and just write it 
off as a bad day. 

622
00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:29,640
Like obviously you want to 
perform for people like you want

623
00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:33,000
to, you know, perform for your 
fans, for your sponsors, all 

624
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:35,320
that kind of thing. 
Kind of similar of a stand up. 

625
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:38,680
But at the same time, if you 
just have a real bad one that 

626
00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:40,960
you've worked hard for, 
sometimes you do you just have 

627
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:43,200
to say, like fucking it didn't 
work. 

628
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:46,200
That was that was like what, 
when Sean McCombs on the podcast

629
00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:49,480
there and, you know, his last 
fight, he did kind of just at 

630
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:52,600
the end say, like, I was able to
have a laugh and say that it 

631
00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:55,400
didn't work for me, you know, 
And I think people love that as 

632
00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:58,840
well when they see a human side 
of someone who is dedicated to 

633
00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:02,320
what to do. 
You see there you go like hit 

634
00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:04,960
the only head. 
We are only humans, you know 

635
00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:08,280
what I mean? 
So we have off days just what 

636
00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:13,679
happens, you know, even this, 
for example, of Jen the car like

637
00:34:13,679 --> 00:34:15,120
people make me say stream car 
people. 

638
00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:18,760
Christ, knock on this stuff 
people. 

639
00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:22,719
They silly stuff that they don't
mean to do high end sport, you 

640
00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:27,320
know, like it can apply to any 
sport. 

641
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:32,120
If you have a bad performance in
my 1%, I can cost you the fate 

642
00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:34,560
that can cost you the much. 
You know, it's just those 

643
00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:39,840
inches, those percentages so 
small at the high end of sport 

644
00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:44,600
that cost you stuff, but isn't 
one of humans and loses a part 

645
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:45,679
of life. 
And that's just the way it is. 

646
00:34:45,679 --> 00:34:48,320
Like you get this. 
It's just the way it be lived. 

647
00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:52,639
A difficult part of boxing 
though must be that so when I 

648
00:34:52,639 --> 00:34:56,800
related to stand up, if I have a
bad gig, I can probably get a 

649
00:34:56,800 --> 00:34:59,600
gig the next night somewhere, 
even if it means a bit of 

650
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:00,920
travel. 
I can bounce on the line up 

651
00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:04,440
somewhere else and make up for 
it and hopefully have a good 

652
00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:07,240
one. 
One of the bad parts of boxing 

653
00:35:07,240 --> 00:35:09,920
must be the discipline of the 
camp. 

654
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:12,400
And you can spend months in a 
camp and then like you say, you 

655
00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:16,040
make one mistake, 11 mistake in 
a split second. 

656
00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:18,520
It's not like the next night you
can have another fight. 

657
00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:21,640
You might have to wait six 
months or more to correct it. 

658
00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:25,280
So you actually probably have a 
lot of time when you were boxing

659
00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:28,120
to think about your mistakes, 
which isn't always a good thing.

660
00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:30,240
Yeah, well you're right. 
They close. 

661
00:35:30,720 --> 00:35:36,240
Say you know, you have a 12 week
camp and like when you're 

662
00:35:36,240 --> 00:35:38,960
starting your cap for fate, like
you're not the building from 

663
00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:41,240
week one, you're building 
basically from week 12. 

664
00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:45,160
You're working backwards so 
you're ready for that day. 

665
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:50,320
And like all our training, you 
give me the best relief. 

666
00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:52,680
No mentally focused math, 
physically ready. 

667
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:57,360
But you know, Fate day, 
something stupid happened, 

668
00:35:57,480 --> 00:36:00,800
something small happened. 
So I thought go to your mind or 

669
00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:03,640
you may feel a bit tired that 
day and it'll affect your 

670
00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:05,640
performance. 
And like those 12 weeks are the 

671
00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:10,200
window because you know, and it 
actually even in the fate you 

672
00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:12,040
have a game plan, you're 
fighting a certain kind of 

673
00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:14,240
opponent. 
It's not working. 

674
00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:19,400
You know, you're back to what 
you know and the plot, the 12 

675
00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:22,680
week plans that don't know, but 
it's about the best athletes 

676
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:25,280
know. 
Just learn to adapt and learn to

677
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:30,600
overcome certain situations so. 
See with see with dedication 

678
00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:37,040
like and in terms of, you know, 
boxers being so disciplined and 

679
00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:42,000
into what to do like you're, I 
think you came on the rate we 

680
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:43,400
did. 
You came on the radio show years

681
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:45,240
ago when we were just talking 
about it briefly a bit. 

682
00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:48,360
But I don't know whether you 
based yourself or you were 

683
00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:51,000
travelling up there like it was 
a clock or our glass. 

684
00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:54,480
Yeah, so. 
As a kid, like as a young kid to

685
00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:57,440
box. 
Yeah, so I was like my cousins 

686
00:36:57,440 --> 00:37:02,200
lived in our glass and like at 
this stage, I mean boxing a week

687
00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:08,400
in Belfast, mates boxed but 
every weekend in our glass and 

688
00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:10,960
my cousins boxed down. 
There is a club down there in 

689
00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:13,240
Polly Ornith. 
I mean it was a coach. 

690
00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:16,720
So just to fit a night I boxed 
and I had joking every weekend I

691
00:37:16,720 --> 00:37:18,640
sparred my cousin fans in 
London. 

692
00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:23,000
I used to be crying. 
Yeah, I speak isn't battery, but

693
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:27,360
like it's just a Hardy having 
bigger me and I'm running back 

694
00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:29,040
the corner. 
My uncle saying you OK me Yeah. 

695
00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:31,600
Of hay fever like it wasn't 
solvent, but there's tears in my

696
00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:32,320
eyes. 
Yeah, yeah. 

697
00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:38,320
He's not beaten. 
And I just stuck at it because I

698
00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:39,600
couldn't. 
I just wanted to fit in 

699
00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:41,280
basically. 
Like I wasn't much good. 

700
00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:45,120
I wasn't terrible, but because 
my cousins and my friends don't,

701
00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:47,920
I just don't stick just to to 
fit in basically. 

702
00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:51,480
See, whenever, you know, I 
imagine a lot of people you, 

703
00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:53,640
whenever you were a kid that 
you're boxing with, don't do it 

704
00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:56,160
anymore, that, you know, fall 
out of it down a different path.

705
00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:59,440
The sort of guys that were like 
beating you and sparring then 

706
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:02,520
and punching you so hard and it 
was just sort of cried a bit. 

707
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:04,480
Did you ever get your own back 
like down the line? 

708
00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:06,640
Like, did you ever just take the
club off, go up to them blind, 

709
00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:08,520
send them Sunday and spark them 
out outside their house? 

710
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:14,560
No, what do? 
The heck was still bothering me?

711
00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:20,120
I can't. 
I couldn't their family, so 

712
00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:21,400
wouldn't. 
I wouldn't have attacked them. 

713
00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:22,960
Yeah, fair enough. 
Maybe not. 

714
00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:24,760
There's a good chippy in our 
class. 

715
00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:29,280
I cannot remember any of it and 
is nice chippy. 

716
00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:33,320
And docks. 
No, no, it's, no, it's in 

717
00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:36,000
Newcastle, it's right down by 
the harbour. 

718
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:39,040
Yeah, that's a good spot. 
That's a good spot. 

719
00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:41,080
I'm only going to once there's. 
A bar, Face it. 

720
00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:45,160
Yeah, yeah, as we as we said, 
that's a sign of a good chip. 

721
00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:48,040
Yes, go in and you're going to 
get your take out and then you 

722
00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:49,600
go hold on. 
What's our tables and chairs 

723
00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:54,880
just in a separate one of us 
will think of it before the end 

724
00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:57,240
or I'll look it up if I forgot 
it by the end of the podcast. 

725
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:02,680
So like boxing from a very young
age and then what age did you 

726
00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:07,000
sort of go into the amateurs at 
and start your? 

727
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:13,040
I my career was busy start right
away because I started boxing my

728
00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:16,920
first time ever on a Wednesday 
night that Sunday had a fight 

729
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:18,920
so. 
Basically. 

730
00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:22,000
What is 11? 
So straight away a bespoke like 

731
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:26,640
a few years here, like I was 
busy fighting every second week 

732
00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:29,280
as well. 
How'd your first fight go at the

733
00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:33,280
age of 11? 
I lost their fellow who I'm 

734
00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:36,680
friendly at the minute, fell W 
Belfast in Finnigan. 

735
00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:40,120
I actually had a remind even a 
few years ago that I fought him 

736
00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:41,320
and he beat me my first year of 
faith. 

737
00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:46,040
You know, I was thinking quite 
rarely every second week. 

738
00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:50,080
It's crazy. 
I've had about, I would say 

739
00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:57,000
about 350 feet as an amateur. 
Especially from that, from that 

740
00:39:57,000 --> 00:40:01,320
young age, like jeez, I, I, I 
didn't, I didn't even think you 

741
00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:03,480
fought till you were like, I 
just presume like, oh, maybe 

742
00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:09,200
when you're 141516 you start. 
I enjoy the idea that like, like

743
00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:11,600
maybe just being a spectator or 
maybe that's something after a 

744
00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:13,200
lockdown. 
I'd like to watch just a lot of 

745
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:18,960
kids being fucking. 
And actually seeing I see see 

746
00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:23,960
the kids nowadays, like if I was
the age that was if I was the 

747
00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:28,080
same have the same talent, sorry
as I had when I was a kid again,

748
00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:31,880
the kids now I never made it. 
The kids and I are unbelievable,

749
00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:33,360
sort of all. 
What do you why do you think 

750
00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:37,840
that is more professional like 
as in as in there's more like 

751
00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:41,000
sports science and things like 
that and what? 

752
00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:44,680
I don't I think maybe it's just 
like high performance, maybe 

753
00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:47,560
maybe falling down to like grass
tower rich. 

754
00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:52,040
The coaching is better. 
You know, I think success be 

755
00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:55,280
successful like you have legs of
us stick when the mad limits. 

756
00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:58,600
There's more money invested in 
sport and then there's more 

757
00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:01,280
opportunities for kids fighting 
abroad and like the coach is 

758
00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:05,280
getting better. 
So I think that's a big fact. 

759
00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:09,080
And I as well, I think it's 
probably Judy K Taylor women's 

760
00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:12,960
boxing in Ireland. 
Like I think this Olympics here 

761
00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:17,920
we're probably more reliant on 
the females for the great 

762
00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:21,280
success because women's boxing 
in Ireland is a massive dominant

763
00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:26,080
like. 
I mean, Katie Taylor is the the 

764
00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:28,120
best probably compliment you can
pay. 

765
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:32,920
The Katie Taylor is one of them 
is you don't think of her as and

766
00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:36,280
no disrespect of female boxers, 
but you don't think of her as or

767
00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:39,040
nowhere as a female boxer. 
You just know her as a boxer. 

768
00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:42,520
And in years gone by, it was 
probably more you know, all 

769
00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:45,520
that's, you know, female boxing 
or you put someone in the 

770
00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:50,600
category of a female boxer. 
She has made she has put so much

771
00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:55,520
eyes on that, on that side of 
the sport on female boxers, like

772
00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:57,920
like just one, one person doing 
herself and. 

773
00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:03,520
Her success has like shown girls
and Ireland actually across the 

774
00:42:03,520 --> 00:42:07,240
world that you know, women can 
do women can do it, which is 

775
00:42:07,240 --> 00:42:09,040
amazing. 
And I have likes of Kelly 

776
00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:13,200
Harden, who won the world title 
is not mature for Ireland and OK

777
00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:17,280
their fee Garden will follow her
few steps and take off boxing 

778
00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:20,800
too. 
So we're boxing, boxing after 

779
00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:22,560
boxing. 
Ireland is a good place 

780
00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:25,800
especially for for female 
preservation at the minute. 

781
00:42:26,240 --> 00:42:31,560
Speaking, speaking amateurs like
you, you're like and then like 

782
00:42:31,720 --> 00:42:35,720
obviously like, you know, marry 
and stuff and, and you've called

783
00:42:35,720 --> 00:42:37,920
yourself biscuit ribs on a 
couple of occasions. 

784
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:39,880
How was me as my kid? 
Your son. 

785
00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:41,920
Your son. 
What were you? 

786
00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:46,040
Oh, you're yeah, I mean that. 
I what I love about you is you 

787
00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:48,120
can just have a laugh at 
yourself and don't take, we're 

788
00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:50,160
talking about a bit earlier. 
Don't take things too seriously 

789
00:42:50,560 --> 00:42:55,760
but like genuinely like you are 
like a a legend of Irish boxing.

790
00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:56,800
And you. 
You. 

791
00:42:57,640 --> 00:43:02,080
Make an uncomfortable me saying 
that, but like, I, I think you 

792
00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:06,560
like are, are so popular in so 
many different places in Ireland

793
00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:09,960
as well, like up here down 
South, I'm I'm sure, and 

794
00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:13,240
especially going to Olympic 
Games and and and all that kind 

795
00:43:13,240 --> 00:43:16,880
of thing. 
Do you was it difficult to 

796
00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:22,040
decide when to turn pro, or was 
it an easy decision to stay 

797
00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:25,280
amateur for quite a while 
because you were having so much 

798
00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:30,320
success at it? 
To be honest, no, I've never 

799
00:43:30,320 --> 00:43:32,600
ever had dreams of going 
professionally professional 

800
00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:35,080
boxing. 
For me, it's not something I 

801
00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:39,080
imagined doing. 
It was never a game of mine 

802
00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:42,160
because amateur boxing, 
professional boxing are two 

803
00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:45,120
totally different sports. 
One's a sport and one's a 

804
00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:47,680
business. 
So for me, pro. 

805
00:43:47,960 --> 00:43:52,200
For me, it was always as soon as
I stepped foot in Jaya Stories 

806
00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:56,120
gym at all Your family. 
One thing was was thrilled into 

807
00:43:56,120 --> 00:44:01,040
me the Olympic dream. 
So once I have the Beijing, I 

808
00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:03,520
have the field for it and I just
want to be an Olympic champion. 

809
00:44:03,800 --> 00:44:06,360
We just want to be a Olympic 
champion for me, all the 

810
00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:10,400
Olympics. 
I suppose, I suppose having as 

811
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:14,040
well like just that one dream 
that all amateur boxers share 

812
00:44:14,720 --> 00:44:16,760
and separates it from 
professional boxing a bit 

813
00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:18,280
because you have so many belts 
nowadays. 

814
00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:21,360
And I by the way, know very 
little, but I'm no, I'm not a 

815
00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:24,840
boxing expert at all, but I see 
that there are so many different

816
00:44:24,840 --> 00:44:27,640
champions. 
So there are so many different 

817
00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:29,600
goals to go for. 
Whereas with amateur, it's like 

818
00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:31,120
that's the one thing you're. 
Going yeah. 

819
00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:34,680
So as amateur Olympic title is 
like the pinnacle of sport. 

820
00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:39,160
So obviously it was it was 
funded. 

821
00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:42,840
It was a funded I think. 
So it's going to await tax free 

822
00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:46,920
from the Irish government and up
here it's for an eye because the

823
00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:48,640
box for Northern Ireland called 
games. 

824
00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:55,920
But you know, it was the job. 
And remember I had a meeting 

825
00:44:55,920 --> 00:45:01,840
with MGM Spitzer, an INTK before
Rio and they asked him to go 

826
00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:05,200
professional. 
I said this, I've been to the 

827
00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:07,840
Olympic Games. 
I was 29 at the stage. 

828
00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:10,640
Then I think, no, I'm making. 
Get to our maids making. 

829
00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:14,280
Allow me the other one. 
I'm going to give it a go. 

830
00:45:14,280 --> 00:45:19,920
But I'll GoPro if you promise 
me, if you fast track me the 

831
00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:26,400
world title because you know, in
Belfast, I mean, well, I say 

832
00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:27,600
Ireland, but they can say 
Belfast. 

833
00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:30,240
There's loads of world champions
leave like some Burnett, 

834
00:45:30,240 --> 00:45:32,920
Frampton, William McCall. 
There's loads of work. 

835
00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:34,760
If I'm again, there's loads of 
world champion, right. 

836
00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:37,640
So I just don't want to be a 
world champion. 

837
00:45:38,040 --> 00:45:43,240
I want to be like say from 
Ralphic, someone special like, 

838
00:45:43,240 --> 00:45:45,040
you know, the fastest world 
champion. 

839
00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:49,280
Yeah, I said that things. 
I don't care if I lose. 

840
00:45:50,280 --> 00:45:54,840
I just want the opportunity to 
try to quit history and they 

841
00:45:54,840 --> 00:45:58,080
gave me some maniac from first 
fight to lift me up. 

842
00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:03,280
Bulgarian hair case. 
I remember reading that report 

843
00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:06,960
of that fight and thinking it 
was a it was a joke he just 

844
00:46:06,960 --> 00:46:10,800
picked up at four months left. 
I was so happy because her debut

845
00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:14,000
for wasn't for me. 
It was titled because he wasn't 

846
00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:15,200
engaged. 
He kept running away. 

847
00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:17,960
And like your debut, you meant 
to sell yourself. 

848
00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:20,160
I couldn't sell myself because, 
yeah. 

849
00:46:21,720 --> 00:46:23,760
And then follow our journey map 
after that. 

850
00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:27,520
There, I said this to my head. 
And like, I can't make up for 

851
00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:29,520
these faith because they're 
coming to lose. 

852
00:46:29,720 --> 00:46:32,200
They're getting care to lose. 
Also, some people might fight 

853
00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:36,440
what, 10 journeymen, 15 more, 
you know, just constantly, 

854
00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:39,120
constantly building up. 
But that separates you because 

855
00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:41,240
you you just want to fight. 
And I remember you used to 

856
00:46:41,240 --> 00:46:43,080
always want to fight the best 
people. 

857
00:46:43,640 --> 00:46:45,040
Like it's a fellow this. 
Is uncommon. 

858
00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:46,800
It's a fellow called Donnie 
Nates. 

859
00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:49,120
He's factly fighting on the 
front, the front of the card. 

860
00:46:50,320 --> 00:46:53,240
He's a four time world champion.
I asked for him in my third 

861
00:46:53,240 --> 00:46:56,600
fight. 
Now looking back, I already 

862
00:46:56,600 --> 00:46:59,800
retired two among he couldn't 
bother me. 

863
00:47:01,600 --> 00:47:04,240
Do you bother me? 
But the third fight I'll be 

864
00:47:04,240 --> 00:47:10,200
fought for the WBO European 
titles against a fellow who who 

865
00:47:10,200 --> 00:47:12,840
was robbed in Japan for the 
world title was European 

866
00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:14,480
champion. 
So he wasn't genuine. 

867
00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:19,440
And then obviously I fought for 
the I got two more fights. 

868
00:47:19,760 --> 00:47:22,960
I got nor take a fight and the 
world take me 6 feet. 

869
00:47:25,160 --> 00:47:28,960
Was I ready for it as a pro? 
Probably not. 

870
00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:31,760
Did I care? 
Absolutely not. 

871
00:47:32,640 --> 00:47:37,920
I had that opportunity, took 
history and boxing anything, it 

872
00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:41,920
happened. 
I think it was boxing well I 

873
00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:47,840
felt it was like maybe 3-4 
rounds and as I was still a 

874
00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:51,440
punch he just caught me a 
cracking shot and I remember 

875
00:47:51,440 --> 00:47:54,880
being underground never hit the 
hard to body my life. 

876
00:47:55,760 --> 00:47:59,120
The referee Victor Lachlan 
counting and the bell going I 

877
00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:02,800
ever sent himself. 
Am I saved by the bell because I

878
00:48:02,800 --> 00:48:07,320
can go to, I generally can go up
in the store for about two hours

879
00:48:07,400 --> 00:48:10,240
after. 
I think I'm the only person ever

880
00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:19,120
to go to hospital or concussion 
from body shot and I jump on I 

881
00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:24,280
was hospitalised and. 
I know it's it's only funny 

882
00:48:24,280 --> 00:48:27,160
because you don't take yourself 
seriously. 

883
00:48:27,160 --> 00:48:28,880
Which is, which is. 
True. 

884
00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:33,800
But I know, but I mean. 
I think, I think, I think our 

885
00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:36,880
one too. 
So obviously I'm back in 

886
00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:40,880
changing done drug tests, can 
back out to watch fountain fit 

887
00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:42,760
Luke Jackson. 
Are you still in agony at that 

888
00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:44,480
point? 
I was a bit sore but tender 

889
00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:45,960
right? 
So had my clothes on. 

890
00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:51,080
Whatever and I just left Mari 
and my mate her mates were as 

891
00:48:51,080 --> 00:48:54,040
well. 
We use a favourite Latin room 

892
00:48:54,040 --> 00:48:57,760
was I had to watch fanfare. 
There are no problems sitting in

893
00:48:57,760 --> 00:49:01,360
the drink. 
So I sat say Rocky feeling it 

894
00:49:01,360 --> 00:49:04,200
was the fate. 
I turn rocky feeling says Rocky.

895
00:49:04,520 --> 00:49:09,440
You know what I don't feel good.
Well, Nah, I think I'm a faint. 

896
00:49:10,320 --> 00:49:13,800
Wait the party and I was Jesus 
there's a daughter called Martin

897
00:49:13,800 --> 00:49:18,080
Duffy doctor I'm going to faint.
It was wacky. 

898
00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:20,840
I'm going to faint. 
They sit down there 2 seconds. 

899
00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:26,240
You're right it's something that
better then that's not back over

900
00:49:26,280 --> 00:49:31,160
it go by M2 there to paramedics 
me right there's a stretcher me 

901
00:49:31,160 --> 00:49:33,240
anything on the stretcher. 
It's a Polygon stretcher. 

902
00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:40,280
So the one guy stretcher and 
Lander we light feed the crowd 

903
00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:44,600
Mauri as a doorway. 
Martin Mauri said to me, what 

904
00:49:44,600 --> 00:49:45,520
are you seeing? 
The stretch of me. 

905
00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:52,840
How long is that there? 
It was me like face white at the

906
00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:55,760
hospital, concussion, body shot,
body shot the head. 

907
00:49:59,880 --> 00:50:03,720
It was terrible. 
But here I probably want to die.

908
00:50:05,240 --> 00:50:07,920
I am a hypochondriac, so I 
thought that's nice. 

909
00:50:07,920 --> 00:50:09,440
We did. 
Yeah, yeah. 

910
00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:12,720
I mean from a body shot as well.
But you know what? 

911
00:50:14,280 --> 00:50:20,000
Let's tell tale. 
God, I remember that body shot 

912
00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:23,880
and yeah, just the sound of it 
as well. 

913
00:50:23,880 --> 00:50:27,480
You could see the force and I 
mean, people like me can go and 

914
00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:29,400
you could feel it. 
Obviously we couldn't, you know,

915
00:50:29,400 --> 00:50:33,640
you nearly killed you, but 
Jesus, that was a fucking. 

916
00:50:34,560 --> 00:50:37,240
I was punched at the same time 
so I got the full force of it 

917
00:50:37,240 --> 00:50:39,440
like. 
Because your body was already 

918
00:50:39,640 --> 00:50:43,400
totally open. 
Gee, I mean box. 

919
00:50:43,400 --> 00:50:48,040
I was doing like 30% sets a day.
Like I should have been in good 

920
00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:50,840
shape right? 
Like but obviously slips are all

921
00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:55,720
the shit. 
You you speak my setup well. 

922
00:50:55,720 --> 00:50:59,480
Press UPS. 
Actually, you broke my record Q 

923
00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:01,280
Radio on Over the City beat at 
the time it. 

924
00:51:01,600 --> 00:51:04,560
Was it was City beat time do. 
You remember they used to do Was

925
00:51:04,560 --> 00:51:06,080
it Steve? 
Was it Steven Clements show? 

926
00:51:06,520 --> 00:51:07,320
Steven Clements. 
Yep. 

927
00:51:07,520 --> 00:51:12,320
Steven Clements had a, I had a 
thing on a show where you would 

928
00:51:12,320 --> 00:51:18,240
do a minute, the most present, 
30 seconds, 30 seconds. 

929
00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:22,960
And by the way, his show was 
always the most crack to go on, 

930
00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:26,640
like the most crack to go on. 
See so many people. 

931
00:51:26,640 --> 00:51:30,360
You kind of you kind of go on. 
I genuinely, I would say him and

932
00:51:30,360 --> 00:51:35,840
Pete Snotton are very, very good
at actually engaging you in an 

933
00:51:35,840 --> 00:51:37,640
interview and taking an 
interest. 

934
00:51:37,640 --> 00:51:42,960
And Stephen was just really good
at making it more than just the 

935
00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:44,840
usual kind of. 
So what gigs have you got coming

936
00:51:44,840 --> 00:51:48,440
up anyway? 
We, yeah, it was 30 seconds. 

937
00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:50,400
Many press UPS, as you can do 
now. 

938
00:51:50,880 --> 00:51:53,040
There was a leaderboard, like a 
Top Gear leaderboard. 

939
00:51:53,360 --> 00:51:57,840
And I remember going in and not 
really paying attention to the 

940
00:51:57,840 --> 00:52:00,840
interview. 
Like, you know, Stephen's there.

941
00:52:01,240 --> 00:52:03,160
Everyone in the room's laughing 
at what he's saying. 

942
00:52:03,200 --> 00:52:04,840
I'm laughing. 
But in the back of my head, I'm 

943
00:52:04,840 --> 00:52:07,000
going. 
All I care about is the prep. 

944
00:52:07,040 --> 00:52:10,280
The 32nd press UPS and he went 
to a track and he said to me he 

945
00:52:10,280 --> 00:52:12,600
goes, do you fancy sticking 
around doing the press ups? 

946
00:52:12,600 --> 00:52:13,960
And I went. 
I, I'll. 

947
00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:17,160
Do it now. 
I've been like, I've been 

948
00:52:17,160 --> 00:52:21,800
thinking about it all the all 
week and then I go down, see all

949
00:52:21,800 --> 00:52:25,080
the Ulster Rugby players on the 
leaderboard and I'm thinking if 

950
00:52:25,080 --> 00:52:29,120
I can do. 
I think the top was 51 and I 

951
00:52:29,120 --> 00:52:31,920
thought something like that. 
And I thought if I can do 40, 

952
00:52:31,920 --> 00:52:34,400
I'll be happy. 
Genuinely. 

953
00:52:34,680 --> 00:52:36,880
It was 30 seconds. 
So after about 20 seconds, I got

954
00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:38,440
already beat. 
I already beat it. 

955
00:52:38,440 --> 00:52:41,480
I was just, I was just bobbing 
up and down like like the 

956
00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:44,200
gravity wasn't a thing. 
I was just bouncing up and down.

957
00:52:44,400 --> 00:52:46,400
Kate. 
Kate, you remember Kate used to 

958
00:52:46,400 --> 00:52:48,520
put her fist like this in the 
ground and you had to hit it. 

959
00:52:48,520 --> 00:52:52,040
So it was fair press UPS. 
And anyway, I'm just bouncing up

960
00:52:52,040 --> 00:52:54,560
and down doing the press UPS. 
I remember, I remember looking 

961
00:52:54,560 --> 00:52:58,040
up at Steven at one point and he
was just like, this is this is 

962
00:52:58,080 --> 00:53:00,080
he's wanted like. 
He. 

963
00:53:00,600 --> 00:53:03,000
And they put me up on top of the
Ulster Rugby players who 

964
00:53:03,000 --> 00:53:05,960
probably weren't really trying 
but I was fucking going for it 

965
00:53:06,160 --> 00:53:08,480
and they put me up in the lead 
report and I think you were on 

966
00:53:08,480 --> 00:53:10,600
the next week and I think you 
got 15 more. 

967
00:53:11,280 --> 00:53:12,840
But you what as far as I 
cheated? 

968
00:53:13,480 --> 00:53:16,120
Did you? 
You slept slept Kate a fiver and

969
00:53:16,120 --> 00:53:22,600
you were not touching the I 
think you got 67. 

970
00:53:23,400 --> 00:53:26,560
No, but 62 but I lied. 
Right, right, right. 

971
00:53:26,560 --> 00:53:29,800
So I so I. 
You're you're, you're the NI 

972
00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:33,440
champion of press UPS. 
I cheated, I'll admit. 

973
00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:38,560
See, when we're talking about 
that body shot, boxing is one of

974
00:53:38,560 --> 00:53:41,560
those things that is a complete,
I mean, football is 1 as well 

975
00:53:41,560 --> 00:53:44,280
where you're watching football 
and you're, you know, 

976
00:53:44,400 --> 00:53:48,280
criticising Kevin the Brainer 
from making a certain pass and 

977
00:53:48,280 --> 00:53:50,320
you're going, he should have 
slipped, he should have just 

978
00:53:50,320 --> 00:53:52,520
slipped the easy ball in. 
But. 

979
00:53:52,920 --> 00:53:54,800
Boxing like I do. 
Well, boxing. 

980
00:53:54,960 --> 00:53:58,000
You know where I'm going lesson 
he needs to he needs to get off 

981
00:53:58,000 --> 00:53:59,960
the ropes. 
He needs it and it's as if as if

982
00:53:59,960 --> 00:54:01,520
he doesn't know he needs to get 
off the ropes. 

983
00:54:01,520 --> 00:54:04,440
It's getting absolutely mauled 
on the ropes. 

984
00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:09,720
But I sometimes I watch boxing 
and I go, you know what, I've a 

985
00:54:09,720 --> 00:54:13,440
bit of fitness about me. 
I have a bit of cardio I can 

986
00:54:13,440 --> 00:54:16,440
move. 
I'm quite tall. 

987
00:54:16,960 --> 00:54:22,360
I, I, I reckon I, I would have a
wee bit and I went to a boxer 

988
00:54:22,360 --> 00:54:25,960
size class with a girl from work
about 10 years ago. 

989
00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:28,200
And like you've taken that body 
shot. 

990
00:54:28,200 --> 00:54:30,520
I thought it was going to die. 
And it was like mothers. 

991
00:54:30,520 --> 00:54:33,200
It was like mothers doing this 
thing in the local leisure 

992
00:54:33,200 --> 00:54:37,080
centre in Hollywood and all you 
had to do was go out the pads 

993
00:54:37,080 --> 00:54:40,120
for, I think it was 2, three 
sets of two minutes. 

994
00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:43,120
And I I thought I was going to 
be sick. 

995
00:54:43,680 --> 00:54:46,400
So, Matt, it's easy to think, 
you know, it's easy to watch a 

996
00:54:46,400 --> 00:54:49,120
fight, right? 
And like, it's easy to 

997
00:54:49,120 --> 00:54:52,080
physicalize you being a boxer, 
it's easy to physicalize 

998
00:54:52,080 --> 00:54:54,760
yourself from a certain 
combination. 

999
00:54:55,280 --> 00:54:59,480
But see, until you actually hang
in the ring like stand up and 

1000
00:54:59,520 --> 00:55:04,600
understands, I find out that you
have no coordination whatsoever.

1001
00:55:04,720 --> 00:55:07,560
No grace. 
Whatsoever, then you can't punch

1002
00:55:07,560 --> 00:55:13,080
because like boxing is solely 
about coordination and bounce. 

1003
00:55:13,280 --> 00:55:15,480
That's two fundamental things 
about boxing. 

1004
00:55:15,840 --> 00:55:19,360
Coordination bounce, like 
people, everyone's taught the 

1005
00:55:19,360 --> 00:55:22,720
box a certain way, so hands up, 
you know, in certain stance. 

1006
00:55:22,720 --> 00:55:26,120
But really that's actually not 
right. 

1007
00:55:26,200 --> 00:55:32,920
You know, boxing is individual. 
So what I mean by that is it's 

1008
00:55:32,920 --> 00:55:36,720
like if you feel comfortable 
punching in a certain stance, if

1009
00:55:36,720 --> 00:55:41,520
you're balance is perfect while 
you're throwing that stance and 

1010
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:43,800
your coordination is great, then
that's your stance. 

1011
00:55:43,800 --> 00:55:46,640
That's why you should box. 
So you said about most people 

1012
00:55:46,640 --> 00:55:48,760
stand like this. 
I wouldn't. 

1013
00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:53,560
I'd be I'd be Princess Mohammed.
I'd be off Ioffer him a 

1014
00:55:53,560 --> 00:55:58,240
Chandler, you know, Duke away a 
wee bit left and right, left and

1015
00:55:58,240 --> 00:55:59,360
right-handed. 
Mean he's just bar. 

1016
00:55:59,680 --> 00:56:01,680
Somebody hits what? 
Mean he's just bar. 

1017
00:56:02,440 --> 00:56:03,840
I can't. 
I've got a funeral. 

1018
00:56:05,880 --> 00:56:09,760
You can't have burned. 
I thought you'd enjoy that 

1019
00:56:09,760 --> 00:56:12,760
reference. 
I you know what I would love? 

1020
00:56:13,840 --> 00:56:15,680
I would love to as long as you 
didn't hit me. 

1021
00:56:18,120 --> 00:56:22,160
I go home from Beijing, right, 
And there was a felt, no, a 

1022
00:56:22,160 --> 00:56:26,000
malar. 
It was a week before Beijing, a 

1023
00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:29,400
fellow called Johnny Stones. 
He was a journalist. 

1024
00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:30,720
Since that guy to piggy 
blinders. 

1025
00:56:31,720 --> 00:56:34,680
He's a journalist and you're not
being a naughty family, he said.

1026
00:56:34,680 --> 00:56:38,720
Pierson, when you come home from
Rio, I'm going to try new home 

1027
00:56:38,880 --> 00:56:43,040
from Beijing. 
I'm just throwing you, but I 

1028
00:56:43,040 --> 00:56:45,800
want to spoil you. 
But I don't want to spoil you 

1029
00:56:45,800 --> 00:56:47,560
right now. 
I want to give myself six weeks 

1030
00:56:47,560 --> 00:56:52,800
training so I can learn a bit of
boxing, but I don't expect 

1031
00:56:52,800 --> 00:56:55,320
whatever. 
So it was one Saturday morning, 

1032
00:56:55,320 --> 00:56:57,880
I got a phone call. 
Daddy's story said Paris father 

1033
00:56:57,880 --> 00:56:59,920
hangers for you. 
It speaks up me what? 

1034
00:57:00,320 --> 00:57:02,960
I was black before me 5 probably
this year. 

1035
00:57:03,480 --> 00:57:05,280
I went down right? 
Not me, down me. 

1036
00:57:05,760 --> 00:57:10,440
What age is this guy? 
He's at the time I say he's 

1037
00:57:10,440 --> 00:57:12,080
about 40 odds. 
Right, right. 

1038
00:57:12,840 --> 00:57:17,520
And I have about 21 but so we 
under ring and I messed about I 

1039
00:57:17,520 --> 00:57:19,920
was just what was important just
as fainting this messing about 

1040
00:57:20,280 --> 00:57:23,040
and he hit me and they say that 
hey or my heaven fit that back 

1041
00:57:23,560 --> 00:57:28,600
my mate it was old Polly gotcha.
I was laughing fixed right not 

1042
00:57:28,600 --> 00:57:31,800
joking another word of lie, I'm 
right this train and fresh or 

1043
00:57:31,800 --> 00:57:38,320
true of his ribs. 
Not a legit story and that was 

1044
00:57:38,320 --> 00:57:40,040
the end of him. 
What did? 

1045
00:57:40,720 --> 00:57:43,040
He die? 
Yeah, he laughed. 

1046
00:57:43,040 --> 00:57:44,600
He was just sagged down the 
corner. 

1047
00:57:45,160 --> 00:57:48,120
I couldn't breathe properly, but
he was laughing but trying to 

1048
00:57:48,120 --> 00:57:49,560
laugh. 
Did he write the article? 

1049
00:57:50,320 --> 00:57:52,440
Yeah, did I? 
And was he was. 

1050
00:57:52,560 --> 00:57:54,760
Not trying to find it because 
his name is Johnny Stones. 

1051
00:57:54,760 --> 00:57:58,560
He was a freelance. 
How much happening, Dario? 

1052
00:57:59,120 --> 00:58:00,800
I'll, I'll try, I'll try and 
find it right now. 

1053
00:58:00,840 --> 00:58:03,560
I'll I'll just Google the two 
names. 

1054
00:58:03,560 --> 00:58:07,840
It would have been 2008 had he 
born Johnny Stones 2008. 

1055
00:58:09,600 --> 00:58:14,280
Johnny Still 2008 got it is it 
it was for the independent. 

1056
00:58:14,280 --> 00:58:16,840
Oh, it says, sorry, this there 
was an error generating this 

1057
00:58:16,840 --> 00:58:19,360
page, but it is there. 
It is there. 

1058
00:58:19,640 --> 00:58:22,000
I'll try. 
And if we can find it, I'll I'll

1059
00:58:22,000 --> 00:58:25,760
put it in the bio for this 
episode, the description for 

1060
00:58:25,760 --> 00:58:28,200
this episode. 
But yeah, it's one of those 

1061
00:58:28,200 --> 00:58:31,880
things where like I would love 
to do like I had a idea for 

1062
00:58:31,880 --> 00:58:36,160
YouTube like boxing series, like
comedy series, obviously, where 

1063
00:58:36,160 --> 00:58:40,240
I would interview fighters in 
the ring, but on the condition 

1064
00:58:40,240 --> 00:58:43,440
that like don't try and hit me 
in anywhere, you know what I 

1065
00:58:43,440 --> 00:58:44,800
mean? 
Like we're just, we'll just keep

1066
00:58:44,800 --> 00:58:48,640
busy, you know, I mean, we'll 
just throw a few, but I, I, I 

1067
00:58:48,640 --> 00:58:51,280
mean, I'm guessing what I'd be 
right in saying say me and you 

1068
00:58:51,280 --> 00:58:54,440
genuinely would spar. 
I wouldn't land anywhere near 

1069
00:58:54,440 --> 00:58:56,640
you would at any point if you 
didn't want me to. 

1070
00:58:57,920 --> 00:59:00,000
Yeah. 
Wouldn't land anywhere? 

1071
00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:03,960
No, never. 
Making a state making a state 

1072
00:59:04,240 --> 00:59:06,320
you would land on the gloves on 
the on the arm like but you 

1073
00:59:06,320 --> 00:59:07,640
wouldn't have been the face 
different. 

1074
00:59:07,640 --> 00:59:10,360
If he's part strong at home, you
wouldn't touch him because his 

1075
00:59:10,360 --> 00:59:14,440
day, but calling the same. 
But my kind of stage you've had 

1076
00:59:14,440 --> 00:59:19,200
llama clothes. 
I will let you because my kind 

1077
00:59:19,200 --> 00:59:23,080
of attack will be as you land 
your hands out there sign 

1078
00:59:23,080 --> 00:59:24,760
currently shoot away. 
Right. 

1079
00:59:24,760 --> 00:59:26,560
You know what I mean. 
Do what I want to do. 

1080
00:59:26,640 --> 00:59:28,040
I want to register as an 
manager. 

1081
00:59:28,560 --> 00:59:31,320
Have a fight like you did. 
You know, like register on a 

1082
00:59:31,320 --> 00:59:34,520
Wednesday, have a fight in this 
Saturday, run the whole fight 

1083
00:59:35,320 --> 00:59:38,200
and, and like and obviously in a
draw like no punches thrown. 

1084
00:59:38,480 --> 00:59:42,480
And then I then I retire and say
I was a boxer amateur. 

1085
00:59:42,480 --> 00:59:44,720
I retired undefeated. 
No matter why did you just take 

1086
00:59:44,720 --> 00:59:47,160
me? 
I'll let you win because I'm 

1087
00:59:47,160 --> 00:59:49,200
just losing anyway, so it's 
nothing to me. 

1088
00:59:49,840 --> 00:59:52,320
So me and you fight where would 
we do it? 

1089
00:59:52,560 --> 00:59:57,320
Like Europa or something or 
Ulster Hall or see SSA mean you 

1090
00:59:57,320 --> 01:00:00,600
fight your but here's the thing 
you've you've done yourself 

1091
01:00:00,600 --> 01:00:03,080
there because you've just said. 
There was a guy called Johnny 

1092
01:00:03,080 --> 01:00:04,840
Stones. 
He did the same thing and he 

1093
01:00:04,840 --> 01:00:06,280
landed one on you and you broke 
his ribs. 

1094
01:00:06,280 --> 01:00:09,200
So I think what would happen is 
I'd land 1, you would get 

1095
01:00:09,200 --> 01:00:12,600
flashbacks to Johnny Stones and 
all of a sudden I'm getting 

1096
01:00:12,600 --> 01:00:17,160
taken out the stretcher. 
It was young and mature and 

1097
01:00:17,160 --> 01:00:20,120
experienced back in nine months.
Don't worry about that. 

1098
01:00:20,120 --> 01:00:21,880
Yeah. 
I think they're I think they're 

1099
01:00:21,880 --> 01:00:24,040
famous last words. 
I think you know what I mean. 

1100
01:00:24,040 --> 01:00:26,240
You'd see the fans there. 
You just you just get the good 

1101
01:00:26,240 --> 01:00:27,920
feeling back and you'd spark me 
hurt, but. 

1102
01:00:28,640 --> 01:00:30,960
It could happen. 
Because it's, I was talking to 

1103
01:00:30,960 --> 01:00:33,240
Sean last episode about, you 
know, it's always talked about 

1104
01:00:33,240 --> 01:00:36,240
comedians, boxing, like could we
get a charity night or some sort

1105
01:00:36,240 --> 01:00:40,520
of, I hate to use the term local
celebrity night, you know, where

1106
01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:44,680
I mean, let's be honest, none of
us are celebrities, but that 

1107
01:00:44,680 --> 01:00:49,720
that was always talked about. 
And I, my attitude to it is if I

1108
01:00:49,720 --> 01:00:51,240
know I'm going to win, I will do
it. 

1109
01:00:51,600 --> 01:00:55,680
But I don't want anybody to 
punch me in the nose because if,

1110
01:00:55,720 --> 01:00:58,880
if my nose goes like I've 
already broke my nose, it's just

1111
01:00:58,880 --> 01:01:01,320
a bite of don't nod right. 
Like you're looking at it and 

1112
01:01:01,320 --> 01:01:04,000
going, hey, and I can see it was
put back in the place, but it 

1113
01:01:04,000 --> 01:01:08,280
has a wee slate bend in it. 
So I, my looks are really all I 

1114
01:01:08,280 --> 01:01:10,320
have. 
And so I don't want to fight. 

1115
01:01:10,320 --> 01:01:13,280
I don't want to get in with 
someone who starts taking it 

1116
01:01:13,280 --> 01:01:16,000
seriously. 
Like my nose been broke twice as

1117
01:01:16,000 --> 01:01:19,000
well. 
Yeah, but you know what you say 

1118
01:01:19,000 --> 01:01:21,400
after about the comedians 
fighting that's been done 

1119
01:01:21,400 --> 01:01:23,600
double. 
He had likes of like Eric 

1120
01:01:23,600 --> 01:01:24,920
Lawler. 
Yeah. 

1121
01:01:26,600 --> 01:01:31,280
Big Fred is a Fred West. 
Jeez, I hope they weren't 

1122
01:01:31,280 --> 01:01:38,040
getting Fred Weston. 
Fred Weston celebrity box. 

1123
01:01:39,600 --> 01:01:42,160
No they all thought and it was a
brilliant night and I thought my

1124
01:01:42,160 --> 01:01:46,120
man on too for a laugh and I 
would ignore story so I made 

1125
01:01:46,120 --> 01:01:50,040
down the fight. 
The pair, first two in Dublin, 

1126
01:01:50,040 --> 01:01:52,680
all stayed not but in hotel. 
Is your mate a boxer? 

1127
01:01:52,680 --> 01:01:56,400
No. 
No, he's not, but I pretend that

1128
01:01:56,400 --> 01:02:01,280
he was all Ireland champion and 
there weren't Irish champion all

1129
01:02:01,280 --> 01:02:04,000
like I had their but for my 
life. 

1130
01:02:04,480 --> 01:02:09,600
We haven't probably told told 
you about you and they're for my

1131
01:02:09,600 --> 01:02:12,840
life. 
But when I took him around, it 

1132
01:02:12,880 --> 01:02:16,480
didn't kill me, but it was it 
was fucking burning. 

1133
01:02:16,600 --> 01:02:17,680
Better when you're falling 
alive. 

1134
01:02:18,000 --> 01:02:20,800
Because I think one of those 
things are like the likes of 

1135
01:02:20,800 --> 01:02:22,120
white colour box and stuff like 
that. 

1136
01:02:22,920 --> 01:02:26,040
You could plan for, you could 
train for months. 

1137
01:02:26,400 --> 01:02:29,160
But like you were saying earlier
about it's all well and good 

1138
01:02:29,160 --> 01:02:30,560
doing that, but you make one 
mistake. 

1139
01:02:30,560 --> 01:02:33,640
I think as soon as the bell 
would ring, everything out the 

1140
01:02:33,640 --> 01:02:35,640
window, especially with a crowd 
there and. 

1141
01:02:36,160 --> 01:02:38,480
We call it different because you
know, you can train and you can 

1142
01:02:38,480 --> 01:02:41,760
be absolutely amazing training 
the 5G techno better. 

1143
01:02:42,560 --> 01:02:48,200
One thing missing, it's faint in
the atmosphere, the nerve balls 

1144
01:02:48,200 --> 01:02:50,600
up and that's that's a massive 
Yeah. 

1145
01:02:50,880 --> 01:02:54,200
I thought there was like 80% of 
it, believe me. 

1146
01:02:54,400 --> 01:02:58,040
You've been doing coaching and I
think didn't I think you started

1147
01:02:58,040 --> 01:03:01,120
it just before lockdown and then
obviously you've you've had to 

1148
01:03:01,120 --> 01:03:03,600
take a break from it, but you'll
be you'll be doing it again. 

1149
01:03:03,960 --> 01:03:06,640
You're kind of training people 
in in their houses. 

1150
01:03:06,840 --> 01:03:11,000
Is it difficult to when you get 
back to that will be difficult 

1151
01:03:12,200 --> 01:03:16,240
when people make silly mistakes,
You know, when you read things 

1152
01:03:16,240 --> 01:03:20,880
like, you know, when Roy King 
became a manager and Terry Henry

1153
01:03:20,880 --> 01:03:24,760
became a manager, they find they
get very frustrated because the 

1154
01:03:24,760 --> 01:03:28,120
players they are managing are 
capable of doing what they could

1155
01:03:28,120 --> 01:03:29,800
do. 
Is there an element that were 

1156
01:03:29,800 --> 01:03:34,000
you or do you just go with it? 
No, because what I do obviously 

1157
01:03:34,720 --> 01:03:38,360
Poly box, he called so I love 
people's houses is 10 rounds of 

1158
01:03:38,360 --> 01:03:41,000
boxing with exercising. 
It's a very, very tough space 

1159
01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:45,240
session, but it's enjoyable. 
But there's no real emphasis on 

1160
01:03:45,240 --> 01:03:46,960
technique. 
And not going to share them but 

1161
01:03:46,960 --> 01:03:50,840
I do try and taste them like the
fundamentals of muscles so they 

1162
01:03:50,840 --> 01:03:53,080
can do it, not obviously want 
them to. 

1163
01:03:53,280 --> 01:03:56,160
Learn a bit. 
I'm not strict and make sure I 

1164
01:03:56,160 --> 01:03:57,480
know it's not a job. 
Wrong. 

1165
01:03:57,480 --> 01:03:58,680
Whatever. 
You know what I mean? 

1166
01:03:58,680 --> 01:04:00,520
It's more enjoyable. 
It's more for fitness. 

1167
01:04:00,760 --> 01:04:04,200
Yeah, but before locked in 
there, you know, obviously I had

1168
01:04:04,200 --> 01:04:07,200
to take a big knife on it, but I
just flam like, you know, 

1169
01:04:07,240 --> 01:04:10,200
couples knock on their houses 
and training people, the kids 

1170
01:04:10,200 --> 01:04:13,680
who come to the gym, I'm on 
there and make and plus the 

1171
01:04:13,680 --> 01:04:17,280
thing about training was but 
like well-being too, because 

1172
01:04:17,320 --> 01:04:19,480
people couldn't go to the house,
couldn't meet people or talk to 

1173
01:04:19,480 --> 01:04:21,560
anyone. 
So I was going to their house 

1174
01:04:21,560 --> 01:04:24,720
and like talking to them and 
training them too. 

1175
01:04:24,720 --> 01:04:29,480
So it's a different physical and
not the last backs being being 

1176
01:04:29,520 --> 01:04:31,280
the doctor. 
Did people do what I did with 

1177
01:04:31,280 --> 01:04:33,440
that boxerized class? 
Like the people think, oh sure, 

1178
01:04:33,440 --> 01:04:34,640
10 rounds, just hitting the 
thing. 

1179
01:04:34,920 --> 01:04:37,720
Did people do a round or two and
just end up completely banjoxed?

1180
01:04:37,960 --> 01:04:41,040
Well, I had Chris here in it, 
Chris here on 10 rounds in 

1181
01:04:41,040 --> 01:04:44,400
furnace, but I thought he was 
going to die in the 20. 

1182
01:04:44,840 --> 01:04:49,640
Yeah, but thankfully I, I, I'm 
qualified in first aid. 

1183
01:04:50,600 --> 01:04:52,520
So he was OK. 
See a fans. 

1184
01:04:53,200 --> 01:04:55,000
Yeah, I mean. 
Didn't have the enough to move 

1185
01:04:55,000 --> 01:04:57,440
but you. 
Didn't have to, but you did. 

1186
01:04:57,520 --> 01:04:59,120
And I. 
Didn't have people that did 

1187
01:04:59,120 --> 01:05:01,240
because I don't. 
I won't let see if I was stuck. 

1188
01:05:01,480 --> 01:05:04,400
Yeah, yeah, get you. 
I think like I would love to do 

1189
01:05:04,400 --> 01:05:07,440
that with you just and we can 
maybe shoot a video about it, 

1190
01:05:07,440 --> 01:05:10,280
but just just for the sheer 
laugh of it, like because I, 

1191
01:05:10,560 --> 01:05:12,800
because I'm talking myself up 
here being like I'm fed, you 

1192
01:05:12,800 --> 01:05:15,920
know, go run on a workout. 
There is not a mission. 

1193
01:05:16,520 --> 01:05:19,360
I'm going to box 10 rounds and 
that and be standing at the end 

1194
01:05:19,360 --> 01:05:22,320
of it. 
You know, I got I'll make sure 

1195
01:05:22,320 --> 01:05:23,600
you get fit. 
Don't worry. 

1196
01:05:23,600 --> 01:05:27,800
So after restrictions pendant. 
Yeah, exactly. 

1197
01:05:27,800 --> 01:05:30,840
I was messed about. 
Can I take my top off? 

1198
01:05:32,680 --> 01:05:34,880
Yeah. 
Baby oil in the rings on 

1199
01:05:34,880 --> 01:05:36,400
Twitter. 
You can do John. 

1200
01:05:36,920 --> 01:05:40,640
See, Speaking of, Speaking of 
restrictions, right, you are 

1201
01:05:40,640 --> 01:05:48,160
very vocal about, about COVID 
government, you know, just all 

1202
01:05:48,160 --> 01:05:52,440
this and a lot of it probably 
stems from, I guess your, your 

1203
01:05:52,440 --> 01:05:57,560
love for sport and you know more
than anyone how good sport can 

1204
01:05:57,560 --> 01:06:01,800
be for like, like you mentioned,
people's people's health or 

1205
01:06:01,800 --> 01:06:04,080
mental health and, and all that 
kind of thing. 

1206
01:06:05,800 --> 01:06:10,160
Do you think part of it is the 
reason that it can frustrate you

1207
01:06:10,160 --> 01:06:14,440
so much is because you're used 
to training so much, being 

1208
01:06:14,440 --> 01:06:17,360
around the environment, train 
even when you stop boxing, It's 

1209
01:06:17,360 --> 01:06:20,080
all about being active, 
training, watching people do it,

1210
01:06:20,080 --> 01:06:23,240
helping people. 
Is that part of the reason why 

1211
01:06:23,240 --> 01:06:25,480
why it's difficult to just have 
a ring stop? 

1212
01:06:26,240 --> 01:06:32,920
Yeah, Daphne obviously isn't 
like you said, I am very vocal 

1213
01:06:33,160 --> 01:06:36,640
on the restrictions and 
obviously the COVID stuff. 

1214
01:06:37,120 --> 01:06:41,320
But I'm vocal in the sense for 
I'm asking a lot of questions, 

1215
01:06:41,320 --> 01:06:45,040
like obviously I don't know the 
answers, but I ask a lot of 

1216
01:06:45,040 --> 01:06:49,400
questions on Twitter about 
reasons why, like there's 

1217
01:06:49,520 --> 01:06:52,400
certain restrictions in place, 
reasons why just just ask 

1218
01:06:52,400 --> 01:06:56,760
different questions and people 
shoot down at you like, oh, he's

1219
01:06:56,760 --> 01:06:59,040
a he's out of the faxer and he's
fucking COVID denier. 

1220
01:06:59,280 --> 01:07:05,680
But I neither you know, I don't 
know the answer. 

1221
01:07:05,760 --> 01:07:12,000
Like, and the I people who don't
ask questions are fucking just 

1222
01:07:12,040 --> 01:07:13,440
brain dead. 
Like, let's go. 

1223
01:07:13,440 --> 01:07:16,520
I give me S here or we'll we'll 
laugh down the first of the 

1224
01:07:16,520 --> 01:07:18,360
legs. 
If you say so, people need to 

1225
01:07:18,360 --> 01:07:19,640
ask questions. 
People need to ask themselves 

1226
01:07:19,720 --> 01:07:22,560
and ask questions. 
If the trade is right, if it's 

1227
01:07:22,560 --> 01:07:24,880
wrong, it's wrong. 
Not no one ask questions. 

1228
01:07:26,040 --> 01:07:32,480
But you know, obviously at the 
start it's a highly indexes 

1229
01:07:32,680 --> 01:07:34,640
virus. 
So there need to be some 

1230
01:07:34,640 --> 01:07:36,520
instructions obviously in place 
in sport. 

1231
01:07:36,640 --> 01:07:40,440
Obviously nearly all supported 
contact and that'll be some 

1232
01:07:40,440 --> 01:07:45,720
restrictions. 
But as it went on, I don't think

1233
01:07:45,720 --> 01:07:50,480
there was any data to suggest 
that there was like outbreak in 

1234
01:07:50,480 --> 01:07:52,800
sports. 
So that's that. 

1235
01:07:52,800 --> 01:07:57,280
I back up because, you know, 
people are training people like 

1236
01:07:58,080 --> 01:08:02,520
getting trained with others for 
not just to be physically fit, 

1237
01:08:02,520 --> 01:08:07,600
but no for their well-being too,
You know, awfully be from here. 

1238
01:08:08,240 --> 01:08:10,640
You know the mental health 
problem we have is fucking 

1239
01:08:10,640 --> 01:08:14,200
ridiculous. 
And sports, sports, when sport 

1240
01:08:14,200 --> 01:08:20,240
is not just for fitness, not 
just for welding, but sport is 

1241
01:08:20,240 --> 01:08:22,640
one of those things that bring 
communities together. 

1242
01:08:22,640 --> 01:08:27,560
You know the fuck the place we 
live sport is able to bring all 

1243
01:08:27,600 --> 01:08:31,479
all together and help. 
Boxing, boxing, boxing being the

1244
01:08:31,640 --> 01:08:34,920
big boxing and football, you 
know, I play, I play football a 

1245
01:08:35,439 --> 01:08:38,760
little level, but I love it. 
And there are two sports that 

1246
01:08:38,760 --> 01:08:42,319
are two very popular sports that
are so good at just cutting 

1247
01:08:42,319 --> 01:08:43,479
through, cutting through all 
that. 

1248
01:08:43,640 --> 01:08:49,000
It's not it's not an issue. 
And a frustrating thing is you 

1249
01:08:49,000 --> 01:08:54,080
see guys that can play football 
in mixed football teams, travel 

1250
01:08:54,080 --> 01:08:56,760
to any estate and it's not a 
bother. 

1251
01:08:57,560 --> 01:09:01,880
Yet you can still see these same
people be sectarian and bigoted 

1252
01:09:01,880 --> 01:09:03,399
and you're going, well, if it 
doesn't bother you in the 

1253
01:09:03,399 --> 01:09:06,840
football pitch, why is it? 
Why is it bothering you anywhere

1254
01:09:06,840 --> 01:09:08,200
else? 
But you know what? 

1255
01:09:08,240 --> 01:09:10,880
You're always going to get 
people out there no matter what.

1256
01:09:11,200 --> 01:09:15,319
Yeah. 
Like fucking look at me. 

1257
01:09:15,479 --> 01:09:18,000
People know who I am. 
I'm a Catholic, whatever, who 

1258
01:09:18,000 --> 01:09:19,359
cares? 
I can go anywhere. 

1259
01:09:19,880 --> 01:09:24,439
Like I know people with shaggle 
and I actually train people from

1260
01:09:24,439 --> 01:09:26,840
the Beaver state. 
I've seen people in the shaggle.

1261
01:09:27,240 --> 01:09:34,640
I've seen people Lisburn like 
staunch, loyal stories. 

1262
01:09:34,920 --> 01:09:36,720
Like people see me in their 
house. 

1263
01:09:36,760 --> 01:09:38,600
Like no one care. 
Like they'll say probably what's

1264
01:09:38,600 --> 01:09:41,800
happening. 
Like I people are starting to 

1265
01:09:41,800 --> 01:09:44,160
ways up, but I feel like 
obviously you'll get on both 

1266
01:09:44,160 --> 01:09:46,880
sides decade the both sides, but
generally speaking, like, you 

1267
01:09:46,880 --> 01:09:50,680
know, I think it's a it's a 
better place now than the bulls.

1268
01:09:50,880 --> 01:09:55,800
Oh, of course, and a good 
example that is, you know, like 

1269
01:09:55,800 --> 01:10:01,200
the the Rangers title winning 
party night on on the Shankill. 

1270
01:10:01,640 --> 01:10:08,240
I think if that was any other 
time, there would be a riot just

1271
01:10:08,240 --> 01:10:12,320
just because just but just 
because there would have been 

1272
01:10:12,760 --> 01:10:14,960
interface problems and all that 
kind of thing. 

1273
01:10:15,160 --> 01:10:19,040
But it's weird that a kind of a 
year inside and a bit of 

1274
01:10:19,040 --> 01:10:23,080
lockdown has made even like the 
biggest nationals be like 

1275
01:10:23,400 --> 01:10:26,320
fucking enjoy your daylights, 
you know, just for the baseball 

1276
01:10:26,320 --> 01:10:29,680
guys. 
Go on, have a can, you know, 

1277
01:10:29,680 --> 01:10:33,240
they're throwing stuff. 
But this time it's there was 

1278
01:10:33,360 --> 01:10:35,200
there was he not going that far?
But you know what I mean? 

1279
01:10:35,200 --> 01:10:38,880
There was definitely an 
attitude, not with everyone, but

1280
01:10:38,880 --> 01:10:42,640
of some people, big fans going 
enjoy it because we had it for 

1281
01:10:42,640 --> 01:10:46,200
so long and you wouldn't have 
had that kind of thing before. 

1282
01:10:47,240 --> 01:10:51,800
So it does give you, it does 
give you hope in some way, but. 

1283
01:10:52,080 --> 01:10:55,680
I'm not a massive salty fan. 
I like them because a train 

1284
01:10:55,680 --> 01:10:58,840
Scotland on because it came to 
dashboard them like I'm more of 

1285
01:10:58,840 --> 01:11:02,040
a clinical fan, but I was 
disheartened. 

1286
01:11:02,040 --> 01:11:03,920
Like didn't do the 10 at all, 
you know what I mean? 

1287
01:11:03,920 --> 01:11:08,880
It was a big, big one for Peter.
Major fit in the first ever 

1288
01:11:08,880 --> 01:11:11,520
title so. 
Part of the the enjoyable thing 

1289
01:11:11,520 --> 01:11:13,800
about sport and Rangers probably
couldn't be considered an 

1290
01:11:13,800 --> 01:11:16,800
underdog like when you consider 
what they've won in the past and

1291
01:11:16,800 --> 01:11:20,360
they are have what have been the
second best team for that 

1292
01:11:20,360 --> 01:11:22,360
decade. 
Well, some of them. 

1293
01:11:22,920 --> 01:11:27,360
But what I mean is that's the to
me, like, yeah, I'm not in the 

1294
01:11:27,760 --> 01:11:30,480
Scottish football at all. 
I was talking when I had Patty 

1295
01:11:30,480 --> 01:11:32,760
McDonald on the podcast. 
I don't know whether it was on 

1296
01:11:32,760 --> 01:11:35,880
the podcast or offered what 
we're talking about, Celtic and 

1297
01:11:35,880 --> 01:11:39,840
Rangers and that kind of thing. 
I look out for Celtic results 

1298
01:11:39,840 --> 01:11:44,120
because in one of the first 
championship managers I had, I 

1299
01:11:44,120 --> 01:11:47,520
got the Celtic job. 
I started off at, I think it was

1300
01:11:47,520 --> 01:11:50,160
Motherwell or part of Thistle, 
and then I got the Celtic job 

1301
01:11:50,680 --> 01:11:57,360
and it was, you're talking like 
Larson and Bobby Petta. 

1302
01:11:57,960 --> 01:12:02,000
And. 
Tom Boyd It was that era of team

1303
01:12:02,440 --> 01:12:06,440
and I remember being in wise 
buys, not wise buys and I think 

1304
01:12:06,440 --> 01:12:08,720
bargain books maybe in 
Collinswater when I was a kid 

1305
01:12:09,200 --> 01:12:12,040
and there was a Celtic diary and
I swear I think it was 10 P 

1306
01:12:12,040 --> 01:12:14,200
because I don't think that we're
selling many of. 

1307
01:12:16,920 --> 01:12:19,600
Them. 
And I remember getting it and it

1308
01:12:19,600 --> 01:12:24,840
was a diary that I never used. 
But it's weird that like it's 

1309
01:12:25,000 --> 01:12:29,160
like I barely support Man United
and I've been over the load of 

1310
01:12:29,160 --> 01:12:31,320
games and I have, I've had 
nearly every kit. 

1311
01:12:32,000 --> 01:12:34,440
So I support any other team a 
lot less. 

1312
01:12:34,760 --> 01:12:37,920
But it's just the fact that 
here, yeah, like I obviously 

1313
01:12:37,920 --> 01:12:42,400
support, you know, Man United 
and no other. 

1314
01:12:42,440 --> 01:12:44,400
It's a bit like Irish League 
clubs, like people are obsessed 

1315
01:12:44,400 --> 01:12:45,760
with knowing what club you 
support. 

1316
01:12:46,160 --> 01:12:50,440
We want to put people in a box 
or in a category straight away. 

1317
01:12:50,880 --> 01:12:53,160
Clearly. 
It's like who who supports 

1318
01:12:53,160 --> 01:12:55,200
Celtic and Rangers? 
And I go I don't support either 

1319
01:12:55,200 --> 01:12:57,480
of those teams at Scottish 
football and people are like, I 

1320
01:12:57,480 --> 01:12:59,800
know, but who do you support? 
And you're going to know 

1321
01:12:59,800 --> 01:13:02,400
genuinely like it's, it's 
Scottish football. 

1322
01:13:02,960 --> 01:13:04,240
I don't support any of these 
teams. 

1323
01:13:04,440 --> 01:13:09,320
I think people will start to 
hopefully care less about all 

1324
01:13:09,320 --> 01:13:11,320
that kind of thing like. 
Soon as soon as the batter as 

1325
01:13:11,320 --> 01:13:12,960
well, because it's fucking 
ridiculous. 

1326
01:13:13,760 --> 01:13:17,000
I think either knocking on the 
head or if you want to keep 

1327
01:13:17,000 --> 01:13:19,760
going with it, have like 1 big 
fight. 

1328
01:13:19,760 --> 01:13:21,120
I'm joking, Jesus Christ I'm 
joking. 

1329
01:13:21,120 --> 01:13:23,280
I don't want that to be a 
headline Telegraph or anything. 

1330
01:13:23,880 --> 01:13:26,040
And you know what I mean? 
Like a big feeling somewhere. 

1331
01:13:26,040 --> 01:13:27,440
Like what? 
Wherever the dead battle of the 

1332
01:13:27,440 --> 01:13:30,920
boy, I think that is still just 
like big open feelings off on 

1333
01:13:30,920 --> 01:13:32,320
the hard. 
Shoulder which we get the best 

1334
01:13:32,320 --> 01:13:34,160
thing Catholic against the best 
thing puzzle. 

1335
01:13:34,960 --> 01:13:39,880
Which would be Connor Burns 
versus. 

1336
01:13:42,040 --> 01:13:46,480
Car Burns versus Jim Moulton do.
You know what that that would 

1337
01:13:46,480 --> 01:13:50,000
shift tickets. 
I can we get on the baller 

1338
01:13:50,400 --> 01:13:55,080
Junior bracing as a referee. 
Yeah, yeah, 100% yeah. 

1339
01:13:55,080 --> 01:13:57,120
That's the sort of thing after 
lockdown, people just want 

1340
01:13:57,120 --> 01:13:59,000
entertainment. 
That's not a bad idea and that 

1341
01:13:59,000 --> 01:14:03,280
could happen. 
But yeah, boxing is so good at 

1342
01:14:03,680 --> 01:14:06,040
cutting through that. 
Then, you know, you hear 

1343
01:14:06,040 --> 01:14:10,080
fighters who trained and trained
different parts of Belfast and 

1344
01:14:10,800 --> 01:14:13,400
it's just it's not an issue. 
And it's one of those things 

1345
01:14:13,400 --> 01:14:18,520
where like we make jokes about 
it and I do in stand up and on 

1346
01:14:18,560 --> 01:14:19,600
podcast and all that kind of 
thing. 

1347
01:14:19,920 --> 01:14:22,680
But it's like if you don't laugh
but you cry like it is, it is 

1348
01:14:22,680 --> 01:14:25,120
beyond mental. 
You have to make you have to 

1349
01:14:25,120 --> 01:14:27,720
talk a bit to happen. 
But how is it still a thing? 

1350
01:14:27,720 --> 01:14:32,280
Like, it is still, I think it's 
about 400 guys roughly. 

1351
01:14:32,280 --> 01:14:36,240
They're still really into it and
everybody else just sort of goes

1352
01:14:36,240 --> 01:14:37,640
with it because those lads love 
it. 

1353
01:14:37,640 --> 01:14:40,360
Like don't get me wrong, there 
are lads who love it, I'm not 

1354
01:14:40,360 --> 01:14:42,400
denying that. 
But I think that it's a very 

1355
01:14:42,400 --> 01:14:45,480
small group of them. 
But I don't know, it's crazy. 

1356
01:14:45,480 --> 01:14:47,480
I guess one of those things 
where like after lockdown we 

1357
01:14:47,480 --> 01:14:50,440
should just all be like, let's 
pretend it didn't happen and 

1358
01:14:50,440 --> 01:14:52,320
we'll just move. 
Let's get these walls down and 

1359
01:14:52,320 --> 01:14:54,640
move on. 
But here, you know what the 

1360
01:14:54,640 --> 01:14:59,360
walls and everyone down and the 
reason for that, because at the 

1361
01:14:59,360 --> 01:15:00,840
minute they're they're tourist 
attractions. 

1362
01:15:01,240 --> 01:15:04,800
So I there's too much money, you
know, for tourists, tourists 

1363
01:15:04,800 --> 01:15:06,760
flat to see these balls, these 
peace balls. 

1364
01:15:06,760 --> 01:15:09,720
I think the only ones in Europe.
Well, I think what we could do 

1365
01:15:09,720 --> 01:15:13,280
is make them like garage doors, 
you know, when the tourist goes 

1366
01:15:13,280 --> 01:15:17,080
like make the last ball 7:00 at 
night and then just like leave, 

1367
01:15:17,080 --> 01:15:21,880
leave the leave the door. 
Yeah, yeah, we temporary ones 

1368
01:15:21,880 --> 01:15:24,520
and wait. 
And then, you know, maybe even 

1369
01:15:24,520 --> 01:15:27,480
we stage a few like fake riots 
or whatever during the day. 

1370
01:15:27,480 --> 01:15:30,880
Like, but it's, it's like 
they're like plastic bottles 

1371
01:15:30,920 --> 01:15:32,480
that look like glass or what do 
you call that? 

1372
01:15:32,480 --> 01:15:36,840
That glass. 
Sugar glass, sugar glass, sugar 

1373
01:15:36,880 --> 01:15:40,680
glass. 100% fellas, fire and 
sugar off, he's got me catch him

1374
01:15:41,000 --> 01:15:44,280
down and then as soon as the 
last keep an eye out, last bus 

1375
01:15:44,280 --> 01:15:45,920
is gone right lads, let's have 
a. 

1376
01:15:45,920 --> 01:15:47,720
Barbecue, you know I. 
Mean that's what I'd like to 

1377
01:15:47,720 --> 01:15:49,800
see. 
It's fit down the Kelly seller 

1378
01:15:49,800 --> 01:15:57,920
for 10 or something. 
Yeah, look, as soon as we can, 

1379
01:15:58,000 --> 01:16:00,040
we'll definitely do that. 
We'll definitely spar. 

1380
01:16:00,080 --> 01:16:02,760
I think that would be a lot of 
Jesus got sorry, not spar. 

1381
01:16:02,760 --> 01:16:05,120
No, we'll do the Paddy boxing. 
We're not going to spar. 

1382
01:16:06,320 --> 01:16:07,280
We're not going to spar. 
We'll see. 

1383
01:16:08,680 --> 01:16:11,680
What about me and you on the 
undercard of of Burns a versus 

1384
01:16:11,680 --> 01:16:14,960
Jim Wilson? 
That's it. 

1385
01:16:15,040 --> 01:16:17,440
No, no, I, I, I don't. 
I don't trust him. 

1386
01:16:17,800 --> 01:16:19,720
Actually, you know what? 
On Twitter. 

1387
01:16:20,520 --> 01:16:22,000
Yeah. 
Robin spawn. 

1388
01:16:23,200 --> 01:16:25,280
Yeah. 
Does game defeat me? 

1389
01:16:26,880 --> 01:16:28,400
He said he would. 
He said. 

1390
01:16:28,440 --> 01:16:30,560
He said he needs some training, 
I think. 

1391
01:16:30,960 --> 01:16:32,160
I genuinely. 
Think. 

1392
01:16:32,840 --> 01:16:37,400
I genuinely think he's, I think 
he might have a bit if he's 

1393
01:16:37,400 --> 01:16:39,760
saying that. 
I think he's going, yeah, sure. 

1394
01:16:39,760 --> 01:16:44,200
I'm just a politician I reckon 
because he is like the most high

1395
01:16:44,200 --> 01:16:47,640
pressure job probably you could 
have in politics at the minute, 

1396
01:16:48,040 --> 01:16:49,640
which is saying something for 
here. 

1397
01:16:49,880 --> 01:16:53,120
And I would say as soon as he 
gets on my, I think he's, I 

1398
01:16:53,120 --> 01:16:54,280
think he's on the heavy bag 
like. 

1399
01:16:55,320 --> 01:16:57,720
Well, isn't there's only one to 
find out. 

1400
01:16:58,320 --> 01:17:02,200
I'll fit him no problem. 
Actually, what? 

1401
01:17:02,400 --> 01:17:09,240
I'll fit him, he wins. 
The lockdown ended, I win. 

1402
01:17:13,360 --> 01:17:15,720
Do you know what would be 
terrible if you lost? 

1403
01:17:15,720 --> 01:17:18,600
That everybody would fucking. 
Believe me, I make sure he dies 

1404
01:17:18,600 --> 01:17:20,040
in the ring or something. 
I wasn't going to win. 

1405
01:17:20,160 --> 01:17:23,200
I would. 
I, I'm my, my mum. 

1406
01:17:23,440 --> 01:17:25,320
That's a tough one to call I 
think. 

1407
01:17:25,320 --> 01:17:28,240
I think Swans got a bit and you 
know what I think he does? 

1408
01:17:28,800 --> 01:17:31,360
I think at the end he takes the 
gloves off and he just gives it 

1409
01:17:31,360 --> 01:17:35,040
the Swans. 
He shows you the guns 100%. 

1410
01:17:35,440 --> 01:17:39,560
Oh my God, I forgot those Swans.
Seems really funny. 

1411
01:17:39,760 --> 01:17:41,880
Yeah, he said, he says. 
He says you have to. 

1412
01:17:41,880 --> 01:17:43,600
You're lying on the canvas. 
But to be taking a line of 

1413
01:17:43,600 --> 01:17:45,560
stretcher and he goes. 
You just got attacked by two 

1414
01:17:45,560 --> 01:17:49,360
Swans, Mama. 
Enjoyable. 

1415
01:17:49,920 --> 01:17:53,280
All right, Well, party cheers 
for cheers for coming on. 

1416
01:17:53,280 --> 01:17:55,320
No. 
Problem Tom, I'm glad to be on. 

1417
01:17:56,120 --> 01:18:00,400
I appreciate it and I'm. 
Happy actually, it's, it's your 

1418
01:18:00,400 --> 01:18:04,680
100th podcast, all right. 100th 
episode of the podcast Patty's 

1419
01:18:04,680 --> 01:18:10,120
Day and then it's a no brainer. 
My kids do not believe my name 

1420
01:18:10,120 --> 01:18:15,120
is Patrick, because Patrick Day,
I mean. 

1421
01:18:15,760 --> 01:18:17,360
I mean, what would be more 
unbelievable? 

1422
01:18:17,600 --> 01:18:19,480
Not just Patrick, but if Patrick
Parr. 

1423
01:18:21,440 --> 01:18:22,600
I'm actually reason that you 
know. 

1424
01:18:23,200 --> 01:18:25,760
If you do, you know what Patty 
Parr sounds like? 

1425
01:18:25,760 --> 01:18:26,880
OK. 
Just sounds like the betting 

1426
01:18:26,880 --> 01:18:29,840
shop. 
Patrick Parr sounds like a 

1427
01:18:29,840 --> 01:18:31,600
refined gentleman, You know what
I mean? 

1428
01:18:31,600 --> 01:18:33,280
Like. 
Patrick Power sounds like. 

1429
01:18:33,640 --> 01:18:35,880
I I don't think a refined dental
do. 

1430
01:18:37,040 --> 01:18:39,200
I think you change your name to 
Patrick, you get Shooter to give

1431
01:18:39,200 --> 01:18:42,920
you a top hat. 
You can have it especially if T 

1432
01:18:42,920 --> 01:18:45,040
fixed her done. 
Invisalign. 

1433
01:18:45,040 --> 01:18:46,320
What's the code? 
What's the code again? 

1434
01:18:46,320 --> 01:18:48,560
Let's get it out. 
Go to granted that though W 

1435
01:18:48,560 --> 01:18:52,200
Belfast Barns 50. 
Yes 100%. 

1436
01:18:52,520 --> 01:18:54,080
I mean if my Invisalign doesn't 
work out. 

1437
01:18:54,080 --> 01:18:55,680
I'll come back. 
Go back to where? 

1438
01:18:55,680 --> 01:18:56,480
What? 
Take it off. 

1439
01:18:56,920 --> 01:18:59,280
Yeah, a little better. 
I mean, I didn't think my teeth 

1440
01:18:59,280 --> 01:19:01,320
were bad. 
And then I looked at photos of 

1441
01:19:01,320 --> 01:19:04,360
me before I had it. 
I went, Oh no, how did that guy 

1442
01:19:04,360 --> 01:19:08,360
ever get on TV? 
The live light and mine was bad 

1443
01:19:08,360 --> 01:19:09,360
so. 
Yeah. 

1444
01:19:10,200 --> 01:19:11,880
All right. 
We'll look, we'll we'll compare.

1445
01:19:11,880 --> 01:19:13,880
We'll compare teeth when we're 
on the box. 

1446
01:19:14,440 --> 01:19:15,840
Patty, I appreciate you coming 
on. 

1447
01:19:15,880 --> 01:19:17,280
Cheers. 
Take it easy. 

1448
01:19:18,240 --> 01:19:18,960
