Welcome to this outdoor episode 15 00:00:43,160 --> 00:00:45,640 of the Tea With Me podcast with me, Shane Todd. 16 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:49,520 When I say outdoor episode, it does not mean that Bear Grylls 17 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:53,440 or Ray Mears will be on to talk about, you know, drinking pests 18 00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:56,320 and eating sheep deck. If anyone's eaten sheep deck in 19 00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:58,120 this podcast, it's going to be me. 20 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:00,600 I say we're outdoors because, and you can see this in the 21 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:03,440 video version on YouTube, we're literally outdoors. 22 00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:05,040 I'm doing the podcast in my garden. 23 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:07,680 And there was a moment there where I tried to push myself up 24 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:11,360 from the seat and the legs went up in the air and I felt very, 25 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,480 very vulnerable. Very vulnerable. 26 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:15,680 But it's all good. You might hear a wee bit of wind 27 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:18,880 during this podcast, not from me, but just from the Lord Jesus 28 00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:22,640 Christ and Mother Nature. You might hear dogs in the 29 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:24,840 background, you might hear lawn mowers, you might hear 30 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:26,920 strimmers, you might hear the sound of birds. 31 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:29,600 Guys, we're just going to deal with it because I need to be 32 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:33,120 outside. Let me just say I have such a 33 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:35,360 great time at the minute. It is so good. 34 00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,920 And I hate that I'm not out and about socialising people because 35 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:41,000 I love when people say, oh, have you been away? 36 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:46,280 And I go, yeah, to the garden. You know, I'm not really able to 37 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,040 do that. But trust me, my town is looking 38 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:49,720 really, really nice at the minute. 39 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,400 I mean, I'm working on that and there's genuinely people amongst 40 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:57,680 us that are working on preventing Corona coronavirus 41 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,800 and I'm working on getting a bit more olive. 42 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,080 But look, we're all just, we're all just doing our things. 43 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:06,840 I hope all the, all the listeners and viewers are well, 44 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:08,759 I really do hope everybody's doing good. 45 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:14,560 This podcast has been one of the main things that's kept your boy 46 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,440 in the straight and narrow during this. 47 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:20,600 Stop me climbing the walls, you know, doing 2 episodes of the, 48 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:24,680 well, three episodes because we do the Patreon one, but we plug 49 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:28,640 for that their patreon.com/TV ME podcast to get the bonus episode 50 00:02:28,640 --> 00:02:30,200 on the Monday that me and producer Dan do. 51 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:31,840 But. Just. 52 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,520 I think having loads of stuff to do, I feel like I'm flat out 53 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:38,400 during this lockdown. I feel like I've I've more to do 54 00:02:38,640 --> 00:02:42,640 now than I did before all this. So one thing that I'm definitely 55 00:02:42,640 --> 00:02:46,520 going to be doing after all this is time management. 56 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:51,200 I'm going to make my time management way better because I 57 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,720 need the management time better because my time is valuable. 58 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:59,120 You, you knew that we were the only I don't like the globe here 59 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,560 by the way, but you know that we're the only TBS podcast 60 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,720 around. Then I got word that this guy 61 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:11,160 called Gary Vee, who is a motivational speaker, multi 62 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:14,320 millionaire billionaire type guy, this American guy, Gary 63 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:19,240 Vee, he's decided a couple of weeks after we we'd been going 64 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:23,440 to start his pot, his own podcast called Tea with Gary 65 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:27,160 Vee. No, that was a slap in the face, 66 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:32,640 but that was also a call, a call to action to the tea with me 67 00:03:32,640 --> 00:03:37,080 community to the sipper Army, because what did what did we do? 68 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,720 We saw the Gary Vee podcast and we said, Gary, you might be 69 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:46,040 worth 7000 million pound, but we have something a lot more 70 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:47,880 valuable and that is loyal zippers. 71 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:51,000 And I said Gary, get the fuck out of the podcast game. 72 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:54,920 And this week Gary Vee put up a tweet saying he was cancelling 73 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,880 his Tea with Gary Vee podcast because he said there's more 74 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:01,000 important things going on. I just want to make a pledge to 75 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:05,560 the listeners right now. Even though we're about to have 76 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:11,400 a baby, there is nothing more important to me than the Tea 77 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:13,760 with Me podcast. I'm never going to desert you 78 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:18,640 guys, so let's all say after me. Fuck Gary. 79 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,720 VV stands for Virgin. Good to be back to be in the 80 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,640 number one TBS podcast. Oh. 81 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,040 In the world. I'm stepping on a big mug of tea 82 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,480 here, big mug about door tea. I'm not one of these fucking 83 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,000 fancy dams that when the good weather comes in ditches tea. 84 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:40,200 You know, there's people that are, there's, they're sucking 85 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:43,440 tea's deck all winter and then as soon as the sunshine comes 86 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,640 out. Oh, I'm on a glass of diluting, 87 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:49,680 Get the fuck out of my face. So I'm on the tea in the 88 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:50,440 sunshine. I. 89 00:04:52,280 --> 00:04:56,400 Talked a bit about that this last week, but things are things 90 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,080 are kind of good here and I know. 91 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:03,000 That that is perhaps a little bit crass to say. 92 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:07,840 And we don't know what's going to happen but when the sun's out 93 00:05:07,840 --> 00:05:11,720 and then we just had a midwife appointment there, but I'm not 94 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:13,000 allowed in. Very sly. 95 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,760 But I totally understand why because it wasn't wearing 96 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:20,200 treasures and, and everything's everything's good. 97 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:25,120 And it's mad because I feel, I don't know about you guys, but I 98 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:32,600 feel like whenever you're in lockdown like this, you, I, I'm, 99 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:37,360 I don't really watch or read the news anymore because it's, it is 100 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:39,040 terrifying. Like it's proper terrifying. 101 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:42,320 So I'm. A wee bit burying my head in the 102 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,320 sand with all this kind of thing. 103 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:49,240 And I know that's maybe that's not very commendable, but but 104 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:52,600 it's I think the best thing for me. 105 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,160 For me, it's, it's a bit selfish and I know you probably should 106 00:05:56,160 --> 00:06:02,680 watch the news in a way, but I'm just kind of like my nose. 107 00:06:02,840 --> 00:06:04,400 I'm taking care of what's in front of me. 108 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,880 I don't know if that's a phrase or people. 109 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:08,600 Oh yeah, people go. It's like your nose. 110 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:10,640 It's always in front of you. I don't know what that means. 111 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:15,720 But what I'll say is this. I've been making videos, the 112 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,760 radio show. We're still able to do, which is 113 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:22,400 great to be able to do that. The more things the better and. 114 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:26,280 I don't know when the song. Comes out, you just feel happier 115 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:28,480 because I've definitely had moments during all this where 116 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:32,240 I'm like, Oh no, we're going to have a baby at the worst time. 117 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:36,120 Of all time to have a baby. But but that's when one of the 118 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:40,240 things that I think has kept my my mood really positive. 119 00:06:40,280 --> 00:06:42,160 I had a wobble once, I'll be honest. 120 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:43,480 With you, because that's what we're doing. 121 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:46,080 We're drinking tea. We're we're being honest. 122 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:50,640 We're just having a chat. I'm trying to remember when it 123 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:56,000 was I think. I think we were in the, we were 124 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:59,840 maybe going to the midwife appointment last time and I just 125 00:06:59,840 --> 00:07:03,720 got really, really worried about, I know you're allowed out 126 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:07,520 for exercise, right? And this was the time when they 127 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,360 hadn't, you were allowed out to exercise pretty much as much as 128 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:11,640 you want. This wasn't before the big 129 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:14,640 proper lockdown and we were going to go. 130 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,840 For like a walk after the appointment or something and I 131 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:20,080 just freaked out and basically said something to the effect of 132 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:22,080 we're never leaving this house again. 133 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,000 Now that's dramatic. And I really like got really 134 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:30,960 like physically tense, you know, I mean I was like and, and that 135 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:32,680 was it. That was my, that was my big 136 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:34,080 wobble. And then I was. 137 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:39,320 Able to laugh at it, but that. But I think, I think it's weird 138 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:43,280 that people. Are we're all kind of trying to 139 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:47,320 figure out a new normal during this and? 140 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,720 One of the things that people are doing flat out that I would 141 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:54,560 have dismissed and being like, Oh my God, that's Liam or not 142 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:56,000 Liam. But I was like, Oh no. 143 00:07:56,120 --> 00:08:00,640 Forced fun was quizzes on Zoom. Everybody is doing like a family 144 00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:02,560 quiz or a quiz with their mates on Zoom. 145 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:07,040 It's now the number one thing in my week we do. 146 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:13,520 We do a Zoom quiz with with. Some of our friends once a week. 147 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:18,400 The the winners put the quiz on and it lasts for like an hour 148 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:20,720 and we sit and have a glass of wine doing it once a week. 149 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:23,800 It's it's the number one thing. I think we should always keep 150 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,000 doing this. And then, like with a few 151 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:27,880 friends, we do a football Zoom quiz. 152 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:33,480 Also I liked in this. Podcast because it's a way of 153 00:08:34,159 --> 00:08:36,760 still interacting with everyone, because I'm used to doing stand 154 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:40,159 up and being able to go out and interact with people that way. 155 00:08:40,159 --> 00:08:43,679 And I like it. I like chatting with people if 156 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:47,000 there's if there's. Things you think that I can be 157 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,880 doing? That are that are more. 158 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,720 Interactive, like I know like Facebook live and all that, but 159 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:58,880 for example, like the quiz, like is there a way we could just do 160 00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:02,000 a big quiz for all the tea with me listeners? 161 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:04,920 Like just a big general knowledge quiz or something once 162 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:06,760 a week? I don't know, I'm open to what 163 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:10,520 you think, but it's like I was talking to. 164 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,600 Butler today, and it's his birthday, by the way. 165 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:17,920 Today showed it to that guy. And I was talking to Aaron and 166 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:19,040 he was asking about the radio show. 167 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:21,120 He's like, is your Radio Ulster rave still on? 168 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:23,240 And I said, yeah, we're on for another. 169 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:27,080 Want to say 2 weeks and then our sort of contract runs out. 170 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,640 And he was like, you know, you could just, you could just do 171 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,440 it, you know, you could just do it over Facebook or whatever. 172 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:34,960 You could just host like a big rave. 173 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:38,480 So stuff like that I'm interested in doing. 174 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,080 I have the time to do it. I've got the equipment for it. 175 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:44,400 So it'd be interesting to know what you guys think. 176 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:50,800 I should I should do this tea is getting cold, but there's still 177 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:54,000 half of it left. And I hate cold tea, but we'll 178 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:57,360 soldier on regardless. Today I've got them a load of 179 00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:00,880 listeners questions I'm going to work through in the second-half 180 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:03,400 of the podcast. This is it's going to be rambly. 181 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:05,880 This is just me kind of because I don't really get to talk to 182 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:09,040 anybody else apart from the postman like once every three 183 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:13,000 days and my wife. I don't really get to speak to 184 00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:16,280 too many people. So I'm just shooting the breeze. 185 00:10:16,560 --> 00:10:18,800 I hope that's OK with everyone. But yeah, we've got loads of 186 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:20,720 questions. I guess we should talk about 187 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:26,120 having Jimmy Dornan on the podcast last week because, look, 188 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:28,800 I'm not still dying and out on that. 189 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:33,080 I had a really good time and obviously our numbers for the 190 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:38,080 podcast went up in the space and then sort of like came down to 191 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,560 to relatively normal, which is to be expected. 192 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,840 But the amount of you what? I don't know if this is a 193 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:49,520 podcast first, but I'm taking my shoes and socks off because I 194 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:51,600 want to. And I read once that the singer 195 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:56,320 Joss Stone like performs all the time in her bare feet. 196 00:10:56,440 --> 00:11:00,080 And I remember thinking that that is the most confident thing 197 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,200 I've ever heard of because everyone in the world is 198 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:06,520 paranoid about their feet and toes, and especially me, because 199 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:09,200 I'm not sure yet. I was going to show you that the 200 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:11,400 camera. There's one pervert for sure 201 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:15,600 with the food fetish going. Please do mate, please do mate 202 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:17,680 and I knock. I knock out my 10th of the day. 203 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:20,720 I won't because my nails are my fingernails and my toenails are 204 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:23,080 just slightly too long for me to be showing people. 205 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:27,200 But. I I have weird fate because I've 206 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:30,120 got this bruise on one of my toes from football from about 207 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:31,640 two months ago that just won't go away. 208 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:36,760 And then here's the main thing. My baby toe sort of curls in 209 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:41,720 towards the rest. Like my toes look like my toes 210 00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,320 look like they're all standing, have a conversation and my baby 211 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:48,880 toe, my baby toe looks like it's sort of like hiding in behind 212 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,440 them, you know, like it maybe doesn't know them. 213 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,800 It looks like a different, it looks like it's from a different 214 00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:56,920 foot and it's like leaning into them going what are you all 215 00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,480 talking about? So I'm not going to show you my 216 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:01,720 feet. But I'm barefoot. 217 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:04,120 And that's all good. Oh yeah, the Jimmy Dornan 218 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,960 episode. Firstly, I think I'm going to 219 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:12,000 ask him to do another episode of the podcast because weirdly he 220 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,320 seemed to enjoy it as well. So we'll see in the next. 221 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:17,160 Couple of weeks if he'd be up for if he'd be up for Part 2. 222 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:22,040 Yeah, we talked in that about the Imagine video when all the 223 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:26,680 celebrities, including Jamie, sang a cover of Imagine by John 224 00:12:26,680 --> 00:12:28,840 Lennon at the start of the whole coronavirus thing. 225 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,360 They just sort of I guess give, give. 226 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:35,960 People a smile and it got like horrendously roasted by the 227 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,760 entire world and he was talking about if you saw the episode, he 228 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,920 was just talking about the fact that, you know, he didn't really 229 00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:44,360 know the scale of it at the time. 230 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:47,680 He was happy to help out a friend and do it, and I think he 231 00:12:47,680 --> 00:12:49,920 spoke really well about it. You could see why people were 232 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:51,680 pissed off. But then he was sort of arguing 233 00:12:51,680 --> 00:12:54,800 that, look, it was just to like give some people a smile. 234 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:56,560 And obviously it did that for a lot of people. 235 00:12:57,040 --> 00:13:00,880 But that story or that article was picked up on. 236 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:02,360 I'm just making sure we're still wrong. 237 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:06,720 On the video, yeah, we are the the the story was picked up on 238 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:15,280 by so many press outlets, you know, by the Sun, the Daily 239 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:19,600 Mirror, Metro Vulture, which is like one of the biggest in 240 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:23,880 America and, and. So just so just so many news 241 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:26,360 outlets, the really cool thing about and people kept sending me 242 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:27,320 those. Cheers to everyone who kept 243 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,520 sending me those and saying like here, man, they're talking about 244 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:30,920 you. They weren't really like. 245 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:34,920 But the good thing about that is they all credited the podcast. 246 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:37,920 And I'll put a link in to here's where you can listen to the 247 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:39,120 podcast where he talked about it. 248 00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:40,640 And that was really cool because. 249 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:44,240 When I first heard about. This happening, I was a wee bit, 250 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:48,000 a wee bit annoyed that they weren't going to say what the 251 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:49,360 story was from. They were just going to say 252 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,880 Jimmy Dornan said this. But to be fair, every single 253 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:56,600 news company that covered it linked it in, mentioned the 254 00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:58,040 podcast. So that was all good. 255 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:03,280 And also, there'll be loads of people will be like, Oh yeah, he 256 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:04,640 gets like doorman all on every week. 257 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:05,600 And then they listen to this one. 258 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:09,000 They go, no, he's just really sitting in his garden kind of 259 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:13,080 talking shit. But look, the TV podcast changes 260 00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:13,880 every week. Let me just. 261 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:16,880 Strip a little bit. Do you want, I want to just put 262 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:19,800 my T-shirt on because I'm wearing a bit of a hoodie but 263 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:22,920 there's a wee breeze. About, you know, it's catching 264 00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:23,800 me off guard. Fucking. 265 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:25,960 We'll go T-shirt. We'll go T-shirt. 266 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,840 But yeah, all those like showbiz websites. 267 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:34,040 Has a man ever struggled more to take a jumper off? 268 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:36,520 I don't know. All those gossip websites kind 269 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:40,720 of ran the story and The Sun were the only ones because, you 270 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:42,600 know, everybody's like. Wow, the sun. 271 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:47,360 You know, The Sun were the only ones I thought that hadn't put 272 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:51,600 in a link to the podcast. So I emailed the showbiz section 273 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:53,640 of The Sun and I've done that loads of times. 274 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:56,280 Anyway, I'm like, I've got a juicy story and Peter Andre. 275 00:14:56,560 --> 00:15:00,160 No, I got in touch with them, sent them an e-mail, like a bit 276 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:02,360 of an angry e-mail. And I was like, you guys did a 277 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:05,480 story on Jamie Dornan and it was from my podcast. 278 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:09,360 And it's like that you wouldn't, you know, link to the podcast, 279 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:12,640 you know, that's, that's that's really bad etiquette and stuff. 280 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:15,400 And then just a really nice woman emailed me back And when I 281 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:18,240 wrote the story and I did link the podcast. 282 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,480 If you, if you actually read the article, you can see it. 283 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:23,680 And then she highlighted it for me and I just had to go. 284 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:25,600 OK, thank you. Thank you. 285 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,520 You're very kind. So yeah, that was pretty sweet. 286 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:32,720 And the numbers did jump up massively for that episode of 287 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,600 the podcast and it was cool. I mean, a lot of people were 288 00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:38,560 going can you like, can you do it again and ask him about this? 289 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:40,280 Like loads of like Jamie Dorno fan accounts. 290 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:43,000 People were like, why didn't you ask him about 50 Shades? 291 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:46,320 Hey, I don't know if you. Can tell this by the podcast 292 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:49,840 right now. But what it isn't is hard 293 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:52,520 hitting. What it isn't is good 294 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:56,120 journalism. What it is, is a young man. 295 00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:01,880 What it is is a tanned young man with a very low percentage body 296 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:05,720 fat body talking to people over a cup of tea about a lot of 297 00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:07,640 different things, mainly nonsense. 298 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:09,480 And that's always the way. It's going to be. 299 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:12,160 Cheers to that. This is probably the last set 300 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:15,160 I'm going to have on the tea. Still like it at a drinkable 301 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:20,000 temperature. So there we go. 302 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,320 I was going to fire it over the grass the rest of the tea. 303 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:25,960 But then I think during this lockdown, I've grown a lot 304 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:29,440 closer to my grass. And I think there's a lot of 305 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:33,800 there's a lot of guys around the world who listen to and watch 306 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:37,440 this podcast going, I know exactly what you mean because 307 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:41,120 honestly, me and me and this stuff right here are really 308 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:42,880 connected. I painted the fence. 309 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:45,120 I painted the fence. You can't see it. 310 00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:46,960 You can't see it. It's out of shot. 311 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:50,440 But just know it's painted. I went to medium oak. 312 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:53,360 I went to medium oak. A lot of people were saying. 313 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:59,000 Go go hard, oak, go soft. Oak and I said, look, I'm going 314 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:02,680 medium oak and that's the end of it and I have to do another coat 315 00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:05,160 on this wall. Oh my God, this potentially the 316 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:06,680 worst podcast content of all time. 317 00:17:06,839 --> 00:17:08,920 I'm aware of that. So that makes it OK, but I've 318 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:11,640 got to do another coat here and then I've got to start this wall 319 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:13,480 and I realised I've got too much fence. 320 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:17,319 So too much fence. Still going to paint it going to 321 00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:20,720 be a long term project and it's all good guys. 322 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:26,560 I have a lot of questions from the listeners and I'm going to 323 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:30,960 get through all of those next. There's a fucking dog and hey, 324 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:36,160 don't do a podcast. And he stopped genuinely, Dr 325 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:39,200 Doctor Doolittle. So yeah, we're going to we're 326 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:43,080 going to get through everybody's questions and it as I say, it's 327 00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:46,000 good to like be connecting again, because whenever I get a 328 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:48,280 guest on, I don't really do listeners questions because I 329 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:51,240 find it hard to manage my time when I'm chatting to someone. 330 00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,160 But but I'm happy to be back doing questions again. 331 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:57,760 I think going forward we are going to do a guest episode of 332 00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:00,720 week and then me do my own one and we'll just stagger out those 333 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:04,200 guest episodes. So before before we get into 334 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:05,920 that, we have a quick charity read. 335 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:12,080 We do this on every podcast now during lockdown because oh hold 336 00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:15,880 on, I put a cheeky request in to get a guest on. 337 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:23,000 Yes, yes, I got a really good guest on for next week. 338 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:24,240 That'll be an interesting episode. 339 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:27,720 Not a celebrity guest, but I think you'll really enjoy it. 340 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:33,960 So we do like a charity read now, and the idea of that is we 341 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,080 just. Give a bit of airtime to a 342 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:39,120 different 'cause every week instead of having a sponsor on 343 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:43,680 and this week we are highlighting Friends of Africa. 344 00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:47,720 Dervla got in touch and said if you could highlight the charity 345 00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:50,480 Friends of Africa on your Tea with Me podcast, it'll be great. 346 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,080 Three groups of volunteers were. Supposed to go out in June to 347 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:56,760 teach build and power and combat the spread of AIDS in squatter 348 00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:58,800 camps. With this virus, these people 349 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:00,960 will very much be at risk, especially due to their living 350 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:02,920 conditions. And so there is a just given 351 00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:06,280 page on the Friends of Africa Facebook page to try and gather 352 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:09,280 essential plot supplies.

That's what I'm all about. 397 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:22,240 I don't like unofficial merch because that's a lots like a 398 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,360 Disney Princess one. I wouldn't like it if it was 399 00:21:24,360 --> 00:21:26,840 like a knock off 1 because there's loads of those sort of 400 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:29,280 things where like, you know, it's supposed to be Cinderella 401 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:31,640 and she looks a bit more like Mangerella. 402 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:33,480 You know what I mean? Like like there's there's 403 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:36,040 there's knock off merch and the drone's never as good. 404 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:39,360 And I hate that, you know, it be like if someone got in touch and 405 00:21:39,360 --> 00:21:42,160 went man love to send you some Man United mugs because I know 406 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:43,960 you're a Man United fan for the podcast. 407 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:47,240 And then it, you know, it was like Manchester was spelt with 2 408 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:48,960 ends. I would hate that. 409 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:51,000 I would really, really hate that so. 410 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,400 No, I like that mug. It looks like you can get a good 411 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:57,360 amount into it and it's like it looks fairly wide and sturdy. 412 00:21:57,360 --> 00:22:01,640 So good mug topic, Tara says. Topic of discussion, Derry 413 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:03,120 girls. Get one of them on the podcast, 414 00:22:03,120 --> 00:22:06,280 please. Funnily enough. 415 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:11,640 Well, Speaking of Derry girls, I think people that do what I do 416 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:14,680 like. Stand up and comedy acting, that 417 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:18,640 kind of thing. We, we owe a big deal of 418 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:23,760 gratitude to Derry Girls because that programme has really, 419 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:29,240 really opened the door for comedy from here to, to be on 420 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,880 like network television, which is like, you know, all over the 421 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:34,600 UK, whatever. As opposed to just Northern 422 00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:40,520 Irish TV, Derry Girls really just seem to come out of the 423 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:41,760 blue. I hadn't heard much of it 424 00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:42,920 beforehand. I did. 425 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:45,320 Audition for it. Should I tell that story? 426 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:50,320 I'll tell that story. I've maybe auditioned for for 427 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:54,440 like 8 things in my life and I think I've got. 428 00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:56,680 Two of them that's a decent hit rate. 429 00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:58,520 You've heard me. If you used to listen to the 430 00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:01,680 Shane podcast, the previous version of this podcast, you've 431 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:03,480 heard me talk about line of Judy when I thought. 432 00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:06,320 I got the role for that, but I didn't and it was a real 433 00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:10,200 embarrassing story. But I went in for Derry Girls 434 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:13,720 before the first series. It was for the first series. 435 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:17,520 I didn't go in to be one of the Derry girls, by the way, I went 436 00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:20,760 in to play a role of. It's a guy. 437 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:23,000 I don't know if they used the role in the end, but it was a 438 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:27,080 guy who. Was like being smuggled across 439 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,200 the border or he was trying to smuggle himself across the 440 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:31,520 border. I think they, I think they did. 441 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:32,960 They did. They did do the episode. 442 00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:36,560 Anyway, it was one of my first auditions ever. 443 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:40,600 And there's some actors who audition for stuff all the time, 444 00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:44,840 and they know the crack. I didn't really know that for an 445 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:47,000 addition you're supposed to learn your lines. 446 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:50,440 I thought that's why that's only if you get the part you learn 447 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:53,080 your lines like I have. No, I have no acting background 448 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:55,240 and a lot of people who have seen any of my stuff are going 449 00:23:55,640 --> 00:24:01,000 we totally, we totally get that. So anyway, through through my 450 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:04,440 agent, I get this e-mail and it says would you be interested in 451 00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:05,600 going in for this Derry girl thing? 452 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:07,640 It's going to be in Channel 4. I'm banging up for it. 453 00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:09,800 I like the role, think the script's funny. 454 00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:13,040 I bring the script with me. Because I think you just read 455 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:18,080 off the script, you know, I get down to the casting agents. 456 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:21,920 And by the way, this is this is in a, I'm sure I can say this, 457 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:26,120 this is in a place called Carla Strong casting, right? 458 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:31,360 And I don't think I've been in before with them, but I've since 459 00:24:31,360 --> 00:24:34,680 been in with them loads of times and they are like the best guys, 460 00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:36,560 the best group. Of. 461 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:39,160 Casting agents and directors that you can meet. 462 00:24:39,360 --> 00:24:42,400 So this could have been way worse if they weren't so sound. 463 00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:45,960 So I go down. I've got my script with me. 464 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:49,160 I think I've got the voice kind of where I want it. 465 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:50,760 I've got like a dairy voice going on. 466 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:55,760 I'm like I'll rate mate and that no, I've I'm kneeling the voice. 467 00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:58,200 I go down. They're like, you ready? 468 00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:00,760 I say yes. I've got the script in hand and 469 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:03,960 I just start reading now. They're filming it and also 470 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:07,800 they've got a member of staff behind the camera, so you're. 471 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:11,200 Reading your lines with them. So I'm just like my head the 472 00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:14,280 whole time is in my script and then they stop and they're like 473 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:16,760 can you be off book? Because it said in the e-mail 474 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:20,280 like off book. And I genuinely turn around and 475 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:24,920 said I am off the book. I'm reading off the book and 476 00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:28,440 then everyone realised I am not a natural actor. 477 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:32,000 And they went, that doesn't mean that made, that means you're off 478 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:33,560 book, like you're not reading from the book. 479 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:35,040 And I went, oh, that's totally different. 480 00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:39,400 I don't know any of these lines and they very very soundly gave 481 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:43,520 me some time to go away. Get a cup of coffee. 482 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,080 And learn as much of the lines as I could. 483 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:49,120 And I knew it just wasn't going to I really short attention 484 00:25:49,120 --> 00:25:50,440 span. I knew the lines weren't going 485 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:52,880 to go in my head in such a short space of time. 486 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:57,280 And, and anyway, I went in and did it then it was a disaster. 487 00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:00,480 I, I had to keep looking at the thing and I could tell that they 488 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:04,760 wanted me to do it. Well, I was, it could have been 489 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:06,680 way worse if they were Dicks about it, but they were. 490 00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:08,440 They were very, very cool with me. 491 00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:12,200 And since then I've been in with him a lot of times and, and 492 00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:15,120 they're great, but fair play to them forever asking me to come 493 00:26:15,120 --> 00:26:16,760 back for another audition after this. 494 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:19,360 So I didn't think anything of it. 495 00:26:19,360 --> 00:26:20,880 I was like, I knew I haven't got that. 496 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:25,240 And then I found out. A year or two later must have 497 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:29,280 been like 2 years later that that they were like, oh they 498 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:32,120 definitely would have considered you for like strongly considered 499 00:26:32,120 --> 00:26:34,040 you for if you had learnt your lines. 500 00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:39,080 So since then I have made damn sure that any time I audition, I 501 00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:42,600 know my lines and I've got a new like technique of learning them. 502 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:44,480 So that was a big experience for me. 503 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:51,840 But Derry girls being so successful and so, so well made. 504 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:57,760 So well acted. It means that the likes of like 505 00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:02,040 me and BBC, like the BBC team in London who were who would mainly 506 00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:06,120 make stuff based in London and England, It means that they're 507 00:27:06,120 --> 00:27:09,320 finally going, let's see what else is going on in Northern 508 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:11,360 Ireland. You know, let's see. 509 00:27:11,360 --> 00:27:13,040 They call it the nations and regions. 510 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:18,840 So sorry if there's a bit of background freeze there and it 511 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,000 means they would go, let's see what's happening here. 512 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,120 What else have you got to offer? And then they'll stumble across 513 00:27:23,120 --> 00:27:26,760 maybe somebody like me or or anybody else who's like writing 514 00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:30,080 and performing. So it definitely, it definitely 515 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:32,800 opened the door and it's a cultural phenomenon. 516 00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,320 And I've seen, I've seen quite a bit of it. 517 00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:38,720 I haven't. I haven't seen every every. 518 00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:40,320 Episode of it because I'm just not a. 519 00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:44,560 Not ATV guy, but sometimes I've like, my wife loved it. 520 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:47,440 She watched every episode, so it would have caught a fair bit 521 00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:51,680 sitting down with her and Kevin Mcaleer being in it is such a 522 00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:53,680 bonus. Every. 523 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,560 The casting of it was great. I say that even though I went 524 00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:58,400 for Rome, didn't get it. The cast not it's perfect. 525 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:02,920 And I worked with Jamie Lee O'Donnell, I want to say last 526 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:06,840 Christmas, yeah, like like a year and a half ago on a panel 527 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:10,720 show thing for BBC Northern Ireland, which people hated, 528 00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:16,840 called NI Trending, which was trending for the wrong reasons, 529 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,240 I think. And I was just on that as a 530 00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:21,760 guest for a while. And so she and she was, she was 531 00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:25,120 brilliant, real easy to get on with, naturally funny and stuff. 532 00:28:25,120 --> 00:28:29,120 And I funnily enough, I said funny a lot of times there. 533 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:33,840 I sent her a message about an hour and a half ago to see if 534 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,840 she would come on the podcast as a guest, and hopefully she will 535 00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:38,600 because that'll be really cool to talk about. 536 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:44,480 We just talk about the effect. Of of Derry Girls and because 537 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:47,000 when you make something, I think from listening to a lot of 538 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:50,760 actors talk, I wouldn't know this kind of thing, but I feel 539 00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:52,800 like. They never know how something's 540 00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:54,720 going to go until it, like, gets broadcast. 541 00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:59,280 You can think you've made the best TV show of all time and it 542 00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:01,000 gets no reaction or the opposite. 543 00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:04,200 So I don't know if they would have thought while they were 544 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:07,560 shooting it like, God, this is going to be, I think important 545 00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:11,560 television, you know, funny, but also important for loads and 546 00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:14,400 loads of different reasons. It's obviously like female led 547 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:16,480 as well. So. 548 00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:18,960 So it'd be really cool to talk about that. 549 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:20,800 But yeah, I would. I would definitely like that. 550 00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:25,280 Jamie Lee on the podcast Johnny. Says have you ever tried red 551 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:28,080 Bush tea? Nice to have a tea related 552 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:31,400 question. I don't know what red Bush tea 553 00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:33,840 is but I'm going to look it up here on the phone. 554 00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:37,320 Red Bush tea? Is it a brand? 555 00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:40,440 I don't know. I mean no would answer your 556 00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:49,240 question. Oh it's spelt ROOIBOS redbush 557 00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:51,400 tea. It's an it's naturally caffeine 558 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:53,840 free, unlike traditional and black. 559 00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:58,400 Teas. Oh, it's a loose leaf. 560 00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:00,160 I don't know about that. That's a bit like, you know. 561 00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:06,120 It's a naturally caffeine free tea. 562 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:09,600 It's part of the pea and bean family. 563 00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:17,040 Eh, no caffeine, I mean. I like a wee bit of. 564 00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:18,960 Caffeine I feel like I never really noticed. 565 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:20,720 Notice a buzz after a cup of tea? 566 00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:22,840 But. Here's the thing. 567 00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:27,000 Johnny could dismiss that and say I've never tasted it, but if 568 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:30,480 I am ever offered it in the name of this podcast and in the name 569 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:32,680 of you and in the name of the Father, the Daniel Day Lewis 570 00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:36,000 film, I will. I will sip on it and I'll let 571 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:39,280 you know what it's like. Jamie says, How many times have 572 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:41,480 you said? Fuck this, do yourself or your 573 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,000 wife over the last couple of weeks. 574 00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:50,680 I'm not a big Sayer. I'm definitely a swear right? 575 00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:52,760 I swear quite a lot. Because I'm fucking cool and 576 00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:57,000 hard but. I don't know if I say fuck this 577 00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:58,760 a lot. Fuck. 578 00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:00,680 This here? Nah, fuck. 579 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:05,040 This isn't really in my locker. I'd probably say fuck it more. 580 00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:09,800 Fuck that, but. Not, not a lot. 581 00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:12,680 Honestly, not a lot. I'm actually in a real good. 582 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:18,480 Zone, you know, I'm trying to get my workouts in, I'm working 583 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:24,320 exercise, trying to eat well. I'm eating like clean meals and 584 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:29,120 not out for like as many like restaurant. 585 00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:31,680 Type takeaway food. Stuff I don't normally have that 586 00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:36,560 much, but but it's it's honestly been OK. 587 00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:39,280 It's it's definitely like the number one thing is not seeing 588 00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:42,800 family and friends. That's definitely tough. 589 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:46,480 But but no, we're we're all right. 590 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:51,680 I think it helps in a. Way and with our situation with 591 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:54,440 the baby being on the way, because we know we have to do 592 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:56,720 this for a reason, like do the isolation and all that. 593 00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:59,520 So I'm not saying fuck. I'll definitely see if this 594 00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:02,000 podcast doesn't record properly. I will say fuck it. 595 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:04,720 Fuck it. I'll definitely say that, but. 596 00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:10,160 I'm worried at the minute. There we go. 597 00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:14,200 OK, we've got some questions on Instagram. 598 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:21,240 Yeah, Natasha says why? Why is Tea with me called Tea 599 00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:23,280 with me? Why the name change from from 600 00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:26,840 Todcast? Yeah, so I used to, if you're 601 00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:29,520 new to the Tea with Me podcast, I used to do a podcast before 602 00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:32,400 this called The Shame Todcast, which was pretty much exactly 603 00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:35,600 the same, but not called this and not I didn't have gas or 604 00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:40,280 anything. I think part of it, Natasha, was 605 00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:44,000 more accountability if I like rebranded it because I was doing 606 00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:46,960 those like very lazily, you know, it missed two weeks and 607 00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:51,520 then I do like a 20 minute episode and I was just recording 608 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:54,040 them in my kitchen and I wasn't putting much effort into it. 609 00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:59,320 So I thought if I like announce this new podcast and get like a 610 00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:04,240 producer on board, like getting down on board was was a game 611 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:11,960 changer because because his speciality is his podcast, you 612 00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:15,240 know, and that's someone to in the world. 613 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:16,760 So I have a WhatsApp group with him. 614 00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:20,640 Big Mike, who does normally does all the video on but obviously 615 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:26,960 count at the minute for me. But it's great with that set up 616 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:31,200 because it means that when I was just doing this as myself, which 617 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:36,840 is what the Shane Todcast was, I was like, you know, coasting. 618 00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:39,960 I was freewheeling. But with this, yeah, all good 619 00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:44,960 with this, you know, I have to, you know, Dan's messaging me 620 00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:47,960 going and he's obviously like, he's not like my dad or 621 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:50,520 anything. You know, he's not like, you 622 00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:53,760 know, a parent being like, did you do your homework? 623 00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:56,960 You know what he is, is like here, do you have a chance to do 624 00:33:56,960 --> 00:34:00,800 this, get that done. And when you want to do this, 625 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:04,800 it's just way better for me because then I have someone to 626 00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:07,360 be accountable to in a way. And if I don't do it, I'll be 627 00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:09,199 honest, guys, he smacks my bottom. 628 00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:14,000 He smacks my bottom. And then and, you know, some 629 00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:18,120 weeks I will purposely not do stuff so that he does, you know, 630 00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:20,360 just to like get back at him. But but he enjoys it. 631 00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:25,320 Yeah, the name change is just just a just a freshen it up a 632 00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:27,440 bit. And I think it was in hindsight. 633 00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:30,679 A good, a good call, Nathan Burke says. 634 00:34:30,679 --> 00:34:32,040 Do you support an Irish League team? 635 00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:34,960 Nathan mate, that I mean that is. 636 00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:38,000 Big that's a big thing with me like people wanting to know that 637 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,679 people always want to know what school I went to and what mate 638 00:34:40,679 --> 00:34:41,840 what Irish league team do you support? 639 00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:43,320 No girls who ever asked me that question. 640 00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:47,480 But the the the true answer is nobody. 641 00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:52,400 And people that know people that know me know I'm a great guy. 642 00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:54,120 People that know me will know I Gen. 643 00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:57,800 I genuinely don't support an Irish League team but I do have 644 00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:00,160 a wee. I do have a wee bit of love for 645 00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:03,160 Dungannon Swift because we played a comedians football 646 00:35:03,160 --> 00:35:08,400 match like 10 years ago, NV South and Umm N Down versus 647 00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:12,600 South Down, no Northern RV Republic and we played at 648 00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:15,920 Dungannon Swift Stadium. I think I I organised it class. 649 00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:17,600 It was brilliant. Nobody showed up but it was good 650 00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:21,280 and it was at Dungannon Swift's ground and they showed us like 651 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:24,040 real nice hospitality that really took care of us. 652 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:25,920 They put on referees. It was for children in need. 653 00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:29,880 And since then I've always like just looked out for the results, 654 00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:31,800 you know what I mean? But I wouldn't like, I wouldn't 655 00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:34,920 say they got beat and go fuck it, you know, fuck that. 656 00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:42,080 And actually about two weeks ago I, as a joke, put out a tweet 657 00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:45,040 saying I want all Irish League clubs to keep me out with 658 00:35:45,040 --> 00:35:47,440 training gear so I can practise to and keep you UPS in the 659 00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:50,040 garden. And then Newry City and 660 00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:53,040 Dungannon Swift got in touch and went on its way brother. 661 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:57,400 So that just puts him up my estimation and that Dungannon 662 00:35:57,400 --> 00:35:59,880 Swift sent me. A polo shirt A. 663 00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:01,840 Home top with toilet on the back. 664 00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:03,520 Great. And a pair of shorts. 665 00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:07,120 So I absolutely love that. So at the minute they're my #1 666 00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:09,160 Irish League team. But I just, I just like Irish 667 00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:10,160 League in general. I'm just kind of. 668 00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:13,640 Obsessed with the Irish League. We've got more loads more 669 00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:17,480 questions, Giles Struts says. Good morning. 670 00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:19,880 If you're sunbathing, what is your preferred thing to do? 671 00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:22,520 Sit and listen to the birds or get the tunes going. 672 00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:25,400 And what's your favourite cold, refreshing drink? 673 00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:30,920 I'm OK with either, although I definitely like getting the 674 00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:34,080 tunes on. But I'm mindful of neighbours. 675 00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:37,680 So we know our neighbours beside us. 676 00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:43,520 They like the tunes, we like the tunes, but behind and. 677 00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:45,400 They might be in their gardens. Listen to this. 678 00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:50,120 But a couple of days ago when the sun was really good, I 679 00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:51,480 brought a wee Bluetooth speaker out. 680 00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:57,760 And here's the thing as well, when I DJ, if you can call it up 681 00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:00,960 on Ready Wilson on Friday nights, there's thousands of 682 00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:04,040 people listening. There is so much more pressure 683 00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:07,680 on bringing the Bluetooth speaker outside and having the 684 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:11,240 neighbours judging it. That is more pressure for me. 685 00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:13,440 So I go with eclectic. Fuck. 686 00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:22,640 WASP people that saw that in the video version of the podcast 687 00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:27,280 will know that I'm very fluent in in all martial arts because 688 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:30,080 what I delivered there was a chop to a wasp and I haven't 689 00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:34,640 seen it since last week on the podcast I did talk about being 690 00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:36,000 allergic to Wasps. So there you go. 691 00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:38,160 He may be heard and he come to sort me out. 692 00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:42,880 I put the, I put the Bluetooth. Speaker on last week and I put 693 00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:44,760 the tunes on because it was painting the fence. 694 00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:46,360 I feel like that's a justifiable reason. 695 00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:49,000 You're doing a bit of work. You need a bit of music and I 696 00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:50,280 said to the neighbours of the fence. 697 00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:54,920 Who are a bit older? I said, you know, a good bit 698 00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:58,720 older. I said sorry, is is that music? 699 00:37:58,720 --> 00:38:03,600 Too loud by any chance? And they said turn it up. 700 00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:10,600 And when they said turn it up, I said Oh yes. 701 00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:13,760 And I turned it up just by like one or two and I. 702 00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:17,840 Knew that we're in the party zone, everybody's in the party 703 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:20,360 zone. And I really feel like I stepped 704 00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:23,520 up in terms of song selection.

I don't feel like now there's a 712 00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:51,280 lot of pressure on me DJ at the back or anybody else, but I feel 713 00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:53,360 like a show good etiquette asking look, is it OK to play 714 00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:55,160 this?

I'm keen to know what you did 778 00:42:00,240 --> 00:42:03,360 for them as well. Laura Finnegan says Would you be 779 00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:05,880 offended or impressed if someone told you that Northern Ireland 780 00:42:05,880 --> 00:42:09,360 accent is great for blocking out the sound of 11 mice eating 781 00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:12,800 another in your bedroom walls? Follow up question, which local 782 00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:14,280 comedian has the noisiest podcast? 783 00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:16,480 I don't understand the first bit of that. 784 00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:21,840 I really really don't. But which comedian has the 785 00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:26,920 noisiest podcast? I don't know, I feel like. 786 00:42:27,240 --> 00:42:32,800 All the all the boys have good. Sound levels, I think all my 787 00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:36,000 mates that do podcasts actually have really good sound compared 788 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:40,600 to podcasts in general. So I don't know. 789 00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:46,600 I don't know, no idea. Good question. 790 00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:50,040 Matthew Merlin says who's Northern Ireland's Joe Exotic 791 00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:51,520 and Carol Baskin, Northern Ireland. 792 00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:56,360 Joe Exotic is 1000. Percent Aaron Butler, 1000% in 793 00:42:56,360 --> 00:43:00,640 every way. Those guys are similar in every 794 00:43:00,640 --> 00:43:02,280 way, if you know what I'm saying. 795 00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:05,560 I mean Aaron will definitely end up married to a guy and be like 796 00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:10,640 oh I'm OK 1000%. And yeah, I could see that guy 797 00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:13,520 owning a tiger for sure. Aaron's either going to Aaron 798 00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:16,360 turn 31 today. He's either looking at the next 799 00:43:16,360 --> 00:43:17,400 couple of years with two options. 800 00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:20,480 He's either going to go should I move out of my parents house or 801 00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:23,920 should I get a tiger and guy. Spoiler alert he gets the. 802 00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:28,320 Tiger, him and the tiger dancing in the garden. 803 00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:31,560 I love that guy who's no learns. Carol Baskin. 804 00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:35,160 Someone that like might have murdered her husband. 805 00:43:38,120 --> 00:43:40,520 I don't know. I mean, when I grow my hair 806 00:43:40,520 --> 00:43:43,880 right next year, I think I'll be the closest to it hair wise. 807 00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:47,520 Anyway, we're going to blast through these. 808 00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:53,760 We've got a question from Matt Thompson who says question not 809 00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:55,520 to get too political. He says at the start, which 810 00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:56,720 guys? I think he's going to get 811 00:43:56,720 --> 00:43:58,800 political. There's a wasp begin, he says. 812 00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:01,160 Can we take a moment to address the age-old bitching battle 813 00:44:01,160 --> 00:44:05,320 between waged? Oh, the aged old bitching battle 814 00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:08,360 between Lions and Barry's tea drinkers in the South? 815 00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:11,360 Personally, I'm a Lions Gold Blend man and Barry's drinkers 816 00:44:11,360 --> 00:44:13,720 are twerps. Might you did get political 817 00:44:13,720 --> 00:44:18,000 there and I don't want to start any tensions but Lions Gold 818 00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:21,880 Blend sounds fucking nice and I think I have had Barry's tea 819 00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:23,800 before but it didn't stand out for me so. 820 00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:28,080 I feel like we could do a taste test, maybe on the pod or maybe 821 00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:32,200 you could send us If you are a man who lives on the our side of 822 00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:35,480 the border, maybe you could send us some tea to our e-mail 823 00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:38,360 address at teawithmepodcast@gmail.com. 824 00:44:40,680 --> 00:44:43,200 I don't know. Ma'am, but definitely like you 825 00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:46,880 definitely need to find your bag, you know, and just roll 826 00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:52,720 without your favourite tea bag. Yeah, let me go to my We 827 00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:56,360 Requests folder. Yeah, we've got some. 828 00:44:56,360 --> 00:44:57,760 We've got some people hiding in there. 829 00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:00,360 Connor Diver. Who's the hardest football team 830 00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:05,560 you ever played against? The hardest football team I ever 831 00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:10,440 played against. Yeah, our Drangers. 832 00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:14,560 Whenever I played for Hollywood, we played them about four. 833 00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:17,240 Seasons ago when they won the amateur league and we did a 834 00:45:17,240 --> 00:45:21,000 guard of honour for them at the start of the game, so they 835 00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:23,640 already had us beat because we had applauded them under the 836 00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:25,920 pitch. We tunnel and they looked at us 837 00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:26,440 like. What? 838 00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:29,560 The fuck are you doing? So they they were, they were 839 00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:31,120 definitely the best team I played against. 840 00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:36,720 Favourite. Sport Football. 841 00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:39,200 Fenton Wolf. Who was your biggest inspiration 842 00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:43,840 in comedy? Probably Richard Pryor. 843 00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:47,520 Probably my mom. Richard Pryor watched a lot of 844 00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:49,760 his stand up growing up. I mean I presume most people 845 00:45:49,760 --> 00:45:52,000 will know Richard Pryor his stand up. 846 00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:54,160 He's dead now. Sly but the RIP bro. 847 00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:57,320 But on YouTube you'll get loads. Of a stand up. 848 00:45:57,320 --> 00:46:02,120 Go check that out in the 70s. Probably any 80s. 849 00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:06,720 He was, he was just out on a bit like Dave Chappelle is now. 850 00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:09,440 He was just out on his own, just blazing a trail. 851 00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:14,200 And yeah, the man LED an insane personal life, too. 852 00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:17,480 So well worth reading up on him. Richard Pryor. 853 00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:22,520 Definitely Belfast guy in China I mean. 854 00:46:22,520 --> 00:46:24,000 Tells you all you need to know. The username. 855 00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:26,800 All footballers dream of winning World Cup are player of the 856 00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:28,200 year. What are your career goals 857 00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:30,320 within comedy that you would be especially proud of? 858 00:46:30,760 --> 00:46:32,920 Is there a special? Is there a specific thing that 859 00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:34,960 you would really love to achieve, like selling out a 860 00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:37,640 particular venue anywhere in the world, creating your own show, 861 00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:40,080 or acting in a certain type of role outside comedy? 862 00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:44,440 Good question, man. And it sort of changes for me a 863 00:46:44,440 --> 00:46:46,720 wee bit. I've said on the pod before, 864 00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:51,840 Radio City Musical in New York would be my would be my dream. 865 00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:54,320 I would definitely, definitely love to do that. 866 00:46:56,960 --> 00:47:01,040 Before I did the Ulster Hall, the Ulster Hall was like an 867 00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:06,080 ultimate goal and I think I did the Ulster all five times. 868 00:47:08,560 --> 00:47:12,920 Weird flex but them. But that, that still makes me go 869 00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:14,200 flip. Do you remember that? 870 00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:17,720 And then this year, hopefully I'm doing the Waterfront again 871 00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:21,160 and that's cool. And then next year, who knows? 872 00:47:22,240 --> 00:47:24,160 So I don't know. You can't really predict it, so 873 00:47:24,160 --> 00:47:26,640 it's hard to set goals. You'd be like, I'd like to do 874 00:47:26,640 --> 00:47:29,480 this and I'd like to do that. But in terms of like a big 875 00:47:29,480 --> 00:47:32,040 ultimate goal Radio City Music Hall in New York would be. 876 00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:37,080 Great, the typewriter Dynasty typewriter in LA would be cool. 877 00:47:37,320 --> 00:47:39,840 I don't think it's that big, but I mean, I definitely couldn't 878 00:47:39,840 --> 00:47:41,920 fill it. No, but but that, that would be 879 00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:44,200 awesome. Awesome. 880 00:47:44,440 --> 00:47:47,480 Cool. I do the whole set, obviously 881 00:47:47,480 --> 00:47:54,200 with an American accent. In terms of acting here, here's 882 00:47:54,360 --> 00:47:57,800 a bittersweet thing. I have an idea for a film. 883 00:47:57,800 --> 00:47:59,440 I still do, and I've written like. 884 00:47:59,440 --> 00:48:01,560 Quite a few. Pages of it, but it's it's not 885 00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:03,440 that it's not finished yet, nowhere near it. 886 00:48:04,800 --> 00:48:06,400 And it was good. I was just going to do it 887 00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:07,480 myself. I was going to get some 888 00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:09,640 cameramen together, some people that work in media. 889 00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:11,080 We were going to do it for no budget. 890 00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:13,800 We were just going to do it, see if cinemas wanted it, like 891 00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:18,360 really, really make a film and it's comedy. 892 00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:23,960 It was comedy, but it's set in Belfast in the summertime in the 893 00:48:24,040 --> 00:48:26,920 in the like mid 90s and like 1996. 894 00:48:27,600 --> 00:48:31,280 And this weather would be per, we'd be filming it right now. 895 00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:35,160 And that's a kicker. You know, there's hey, there's 896 00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:38,360 way worse things happening. Obviously at the minute people 897 00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:39,720 don't get to see family and all that. 898 00:48:39,720 --> 00:48:42,720 But part of me is looking at this where they're going. 899 00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:47,080 I could have made that thing, but if it's like my nose, it'll 900 00:48:47,080 --> 00:48:51,680 always be in front of me. Matthew Gibson What about people 901 00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:53,920 who who put milk in their cup before hot water? 902 00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:56,000 They deserve to get stuck in every lift they get in. 903 00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:59,200 See it in tea drinkers. I can only agree. 904 00:48:59,400 --> 00:49:00,400 I can only agree. Don't know how. 905 00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:04,400 I don't know how they can judge the overall cup, the cup, the 906 00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:05,600 finish of the cup. I don't know. 907 00:49:06,720 --> 00:49:08,960 Carl Donaldson says he's got a few questions. 908 00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:11,920 Say you're right. I'll just, I'll just pick one, 909 00:49:13,840 --> 00:49:15,400 he says. If you could do a gig at any 910 00:49:15,400 --> 00:49:17,800 event, oh, we've had that. If you were a singer, what would 911 00:49:17,800 --> 00:49:21,760 be your dream collaboration? BTS. 912 00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:26,440 For sure if you're look. I'm being serious here. 913 00:49:27,240 --> 00:49:29,800 If you're having a bit of a wobble, as I would call it, or a 914 00:49:29,800 --> 00:49:33,760 blip during the whole lockdown and you like watching things 915 00:49:33,760 --> 00:49:38,200 online for a bit of fun, for a bit of escapism, go on YouTube, 916 00:49:38,280 --> 00:49:43,480 Go to James Corden's Carpet or karaoke and type in BTS, 3 917 00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:48,480 letters BTS if you don't know, they're a Korean boy band and 918 00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:50,080 you will have fun for 15 minutes. 919 00:49:50,080 --> 00:49:51,800 I would love to get involved with those guys. 920 00:49:51,800 --> 00:49:55,720 I think me and JC talked a bit about that, so so probably that, 921 00:49:56,320 --> 00:49:58,920 Alana says. What's the best primary school 922 00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:01,320 rumour you ever heard? A rumour went around our primary 923 00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:03,920 school that this weird quiet boy in the year above us used to 924 00:50:03,920 --> 00:50:06,480 sneak out at night with his dad's screwdriver and steely 925 00:50:06,480 --> 00:50:09,880 eyes off steal the cat's eyes off the centre of the main road 926 00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:11,360 near his house and keep them in his bedroom. 927 00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:16,120 That boy was me. I have thousands of them. 928 00:50:19,480 --> 00:50:24,000 I don't know by the way, what. We'll leave the questions there. 929 00:50:24,720 --> 00:50:36,140 Let me just check the camera. Guys, the camera stopped rolling 930 00:50:36,140 --> 00:50:38,620 there, and that's really sad because I don't know how long it 931 00:50:38,620 --> 00:50:41,440 had stopped rolling for and that's upsetting. 932 00:50:41,440 --> 00:50:45,320 But look, the sun's shining and it's all good. 933 00:50:45,960 --> 00:50:49,040 Things could be a lot worse than they are right here in this 934 00:50:49,040 --> 00:50:51,280 garden. So I'm looking up at the blue 935 00:50:51,280 --> 00:50:54,160 sky, I'm looking up at the sun, and I'm thinking that's painting 936 00:50:54,160 --> 00:50:57,520 weather and getting stuck back into this fence and maybe, 937 00:50:58,440 --> 00:51:01,120 maybe. I'll put up a picture on 938 00:51:01,120 --> 00:51:03,440 Instagram in a couple of days and show you my fence. 939 00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:07,240 If you've ever been curious, this will be the time and coming 940 00:51:07,240 --> 00:51:09,960 up in the next couple of weeks. We've got great guests as always 941 00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:12,440 on the pod. Really excited to sit. 942 00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:14,080 Down and chat to some of these people. 943 00:51:14,400 --> 00:51:18,280 The the radio show goes out BBC Radio Ulster every Friday night. 944 00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:20,920 The ray of lockdown. Join me for that 6 until half 945 00:51:20,920 --> 00:51:22,840 seven. We're having a ball doing those. 946 00:51:23,080 --> 00:51:25,920 We're having a ball, darling.

That's that's insane. 950 00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:39,200 There's see this one wasp, right, that hovers in the same 951 00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:40,640 place. There's another one in our 952 00:51:40,640 --> 00:51:43,880 garden every week and then they fight each other. 953 00:51:44,200 --> 00:51:46,600 That's so weird. Look, there's a Gale blowing 954 00:51:46,600 --> 00:51:48,120 here. I'm going to wrap it up there. 955 00:51:48,240 --> 00:51:50,120 Thank you very much for listening and watching. 956 00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:52,280 I apologise that this podcast was really. 957 00:51:52,280 --> 00:51:56,400 Rambly, you know, it was just kind of just chat with no real 958 00:51:56,400 --> 00:51:59,600 purpose, but if that's what you're into, I hope you find all 959 00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:02,320 you were looking for.
