Speaker 1 (00:00):
You basically just describe private healthcare, but you want to
turn it into some sort of prostitution ring where people
only choose their doctor based on their looks.

Speaker 2 (00:07):
You lost your fucking mind anyway, You are right.

Speaker 1 (00:21):
Yeah, I know there were mid January now, but do
you have a nice Christmas?

Speaker 2 (00:24):
A New Year? I did? It was lovely.

Speaker 1 (00:27):
I know we've spoken about already, but for the benefit
of the podcast listeners.

Speaker 2 (00:30):
I want to find it hard to repeat we've already
because we speak pretty much every day, don't we.

Speaker 1 (00:34):
Yeah about noe basically nonsense.

Speaker 2 (00:37):
But yeah, had a really good one. We had sixteen
people around are cooked outside in the oven, which was
a which was a good idea. But five hours stood
outside won't cold ere than like twelve degrees? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (00:48):
Why after Christmas? Was it perfect Christmas weather?

Speaker 2 (00:51):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (00:52):
It's not Christmas. I love snow. I love it, but
I wish it had come at more convenient times. Yeah,
I know what you mean, because it's still here a
week later, because the temperatures were in the minuses and
this country falls apart.

Speaker 2 (01:03):
First two days were exciting about there. Then it becomes
a massive burden.

Speaker 1 (01:06):
Yeah, there's an inch of ice in your car. Park
nearly an hours over tip away.

Speaker 2 (01:10):
In all right, came ben, It works for me. I
came in and in attempt to clear the car park
with a piece of wood as a snow shovel, And
basically all they've done is pushed a big pile in
front of the door and then gave up as a
bad job, rather than pushing it away from the steps
and pushing towards the steps. But yeah, people are just
panicking snow.

Speaker 1 (01:29):
Don't But the whole country goes I don't understand. The
whole country goes into meltdown even though it was just
freezing cold temperatures. Train stopped, no alternative bus services, Schools close.

Speaker 2 (01:40):
And have stopped grinning in Colderdale stopped grining everywhere for
a cost saving measure.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
I don't understand. I'm still people are still paying council tax.
How is it that there's no money?

Speaker 2 (01:50):
Yeah? Did you know what? And you can't complain about
it because you get one person who goes well, you
pay for the fire service or the police. Your bins
get collected once a week.

Speaker 1 (01:59):
Yeah, I look. I rarely look at my pace slips,
but I was looking at my pace slips the other day.
Trying to do some maths and the amount of like
stuff that comes out like it's half your wage merely
like for national insurance and working tax for working, getting

(02:19):
tax for working, which seems mental to me when you've
also got to them pay council tax.

Speaker 2 (02:27):
Annoying tax for that as well. It's a tax.

Speaker 1 (02:30):
My insurance has gone down paid for that pool tax.
But this, this cost of living crisis is real. I
don't know if you've noticed.

Speaker 2 (02:40):
I think affect you will get up. I don't get
a wage slip, Yeah, you can't really don't really.

Speaker 1 (02:45):
Work that for me, there's a tax I've ever seen your.

Speaker 2 (02:49):
Anyway, we are gonna have some structure to this podcast.

Speaker 1 (02:51):
Eventually, not today, not today.

Speaker 2 (02:53):
We did record a podcast over the period because it's
period with the kids, but it all went up.

Speaker 1 (02:59):
Yeah, so the But basically these podcasts are to keep
us ticking over Tom. Tom's insistent that we keep recording
them while the studio is being built. And look at it.
It's coming together that the walls are now primed and
ready to be decorated. We've had a nice little bit
of wood put in the joint. Actually that is spectacular job,
is it great?

Speaker 2 (03:18):
And Also you can remove that access to the window.
It's in case building controller watching which the wall. Because
do you want to be one of the hundred people?
Could you imagine? Always it always bothers me who listens
a bit. The post woman came in and she went, oh,
there you got a podcast right. No, even though we're
desperate for listeners, I'm turning listeners down.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
Yeah. It's like when I go on a on a
date and they're like, oh, see that you do podcasting,
and like, yeah, but you don't want to, don't you know?

Speaker 2 (03:48):
It's a man. Why was that embarrassed? Maybe that's the problem. Yeah,
too embarrassed. But anyway, the studios coming on, it's very echoy.

Speaker 1 (03:58):
But but my is somehow more echoe the more.

Speaker 2 (04:04):
And we had just the shell we could see the rafters.

Speaker 1 (04:07):
But the thing, the thing is I I thought it'd
be a good idea, right, just let's stop finish the
studio and then we'll start podcasting. But what's actual happened
is we did the Rob Beckett episode, which we sucked up.

Speaker 2 (04:19):
We know that about that.

Speaker 1 (04:20):
We will we will talk about it. We were too drunk.
We messed it up. But in there Rob Rob spoke
about consistency, and since then we've not done another episode.
What I'm saying, so what know, what we should do,
What we should have done is get the studio finished.
Stop messing Andy about because Andy producer and I.

Speaker 2 (04:37):
Like the you don't forget where Breezebot was a couple
of weeks.

Speaker 1 (04:40):
It is really coming together nicely. I'm not criticized at
all that they're coming together as a studio, but I
thought we should wait until it's done and then relaunch
Manhood as a new thing because we've got we know
how it's going to be structured in future when it's
relaunched proper, and we will relaunch proper. These are like
these are like the reserve games. We're seeing what we're
able to do. Friendlies, we're looking at the talent and

(05:01):
seeing what's over around. Yeah they're friendly, Yeah, preseason friendly.

Speaker 2 (05:04):
We've got a bank of friendly. It's one of them.
Had to be with the most famous comedians in the UK.
Classed as a friendly.

Speaker 1 (05:10):
We messed up with, I say, Tom Toms.

Speaker 2 (05:15):
We've been drinking Long Island iced teas from two in
the afternoon before we met Rob and I was I
was buzzing off my tits. I don't know what's wrong
with me. I want on drugs. At that sounds like
you're on drugs. But I was very giddy, very loud,
and very happy, and you were the opposite. You did
not match my own energy. So all it looks like
I'm talking over Rob, who, by the way, is like
one of the most famous comeditis in the UK. He's

(05:35):
on our podcast is Own Time, and I'm fucking talking
over him.

Speaker 1 (05:38):
I know there was there is a bit and I've
clicked to the video where Rob starts telling an anecdote
and you will go, no, no, no, Rob, I want to
tell you the story. And Rob says, yeah, that's what
I do if I've got a guest on a podcast,
talk over them and tell my stories. And you just
carried on telling your story.

Speaker 2 (05:53):
You didn't even I've had that much of a big.

Speaker 1 (05:55):
Because, like you said, because I before we've got onto
Long Island Ice, I've just been hammering guineas all night,
so I effectively three Rose dinners. So I was I
was ready a couple. And if you listen to that podcast,
I sound like I'm in slow motion and I'm just
sitting there just taking it all. So anyway, we both.

Speaker 2 (06:16):
You should have shut me up, number one. You should
have said, Tom, shut the hell up. But you know
what it made me not about you. Yeah, I want
in the mood.

Speaker 1 (06:24):
But you know what, what I've realized is that you're
always like that, and I'm normally like quiet, not quieter,
but the slower one. And we're meet in the middle.
So that's why it works normally. But when we're drunk,
the parameters are gone.

Speaker 2 (06:40):
We're staying the window.

Speaker 1 (06:43):
So we did mess We did mess it up, and
we will get Rob back on in some capacity because
he is back. He is back up North. We've not
mentioned this to him yet, but we will want to
come back on again, and we'll just be teetotal the
whole day.

Speaker 2 (06:55):
Waters he did nothing for his career in it. He
didn't need it. You know what.

Speaker 1 (07:00):
There was a series of text messages because when we've
done it, immediately after the recording, Rob said, you've got
to let me see that before it goes out. So
we did, and he said, I don't listened to it,
but my agent has in the vast for this little
bit to be cut out. But otherwise it's fine. And
my first thought was I would absolutely love to see
those text exchanges between him. His agent must have been thinking,

(07:22):
what the fuck.

Speaker 2 (07:23):
You were doing?

Speaker 1 (07:25):
Why are you doing that? You're the biggest comedian in
the UK at the moment. You've done Gladiators, you've done
Robert versus Ramesh, you've done that darts. Thing basically is
the skin on my skybox is always Rob Beckett is
always on the main thing. And he's chosen to do
a podcast with a couple of nomarks in a hotel
room when we're pissed. His agent must have been losing

(07:47):
his fucking mind. Oh it's really cringe really, actually it
is cringey.

Speaker 2 (07:50):
We messed it up.

Speaker 1 (07:50):
But anyway, we are going to relaunch Manhood proper. These
are the pre season friendlies. The studio is coming together
really nice. I've got a great joiner as you can see.
We're gonna have a TV screen up here. There's gonna
be shells with all our memorabilia and awards on it.

Speaker 2 (08:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (08:02):
We have one award to believe it or not not
for being ship fifteen years ago. Yeah, but they still count,
They still count.

Speaker 2 (08:08):
Are you going to have your tea? Bother? Thanks steaming
away there, Thanks for.

Speaker 1 (08:13):
My cup of tea and there is going to be structure.
We'll probably the relaunch will involve an episode with the
kids first asking us questions about life and stuff like that,
which is the episode we did record that we also
messed up, so we will be back what we told
we will and haply properly.

Speaker 2 (08:29):
But Dom's got this idea. We were going to tell
them the idea.

Speaker 1 (08:33):
Yeah, I mean to be fair, we've done it podcasting news.
About three years ago, when we first started this podcast,
we did an episode where we said, there is going
to be structured and this is what the idea is
going to do.

Speaker 2 (08:42):
Don't maybe don't tell them the idea.

Speaker 1 (08:43):
Then, but it's going to be structured.

Speaker 2 (08:46):
This does lean nicely onto people get in touch. Actually,
so people have set these messages. After we said that
nobody listens and nobody messages. We give out an email
address that nobody email. I just don't don't be people
emailing him order, I think, yeah, right, composing an email
to a podcast is they're just.

Speaker 1 (09:02):
Going to listen to it they're in the car because
tweeting so much easier, isn't it.

Speaker 2 (09:06):
Who's going to actually draft an email? That's not gonna
happen but if you're onto, it's Manhood Gmail dot com.
But Jill Taylor got in touch through Instagram.

Speaker 1 (09:15):
Jill Taylor. Oh yeah, that's the name of the I
thought I recognize the name. I don't know what I
thought I did, but I just realized it's the name
of the mum from the sitcom Home Improvement from the nineties.
She's called Jill Taylor anyway. Sorry, I mean, not the
actress unless a fictional character has.

Speaker 2 (09:31):
Been in it's actually her shagging a blue tea is
but a lad. Just send this in December. I love
the podcast. You're not getting the listeners you deserve. Basically,
it's a sympathy message, patronized don't give up. I don't
think we have said we wouldn't give up. I will
never give up, and don't change the format. Laura Jill
love the case of it all. Yeah. The thing is,

(09:52):
then you actually replied to that, because nobody messages, we
can actually reply to you. If your messages, you're.

Speaker 1 (09:58):
Going to get a reply.

Speaker 2 (09:59):
It's not a bit deal to us. You've put That's
really kind of you. Thanks, Gill. Did you know you've
got the same name as the person for mown Improvement
and she did replied to that.

Speaker 1 (10:07):
Do you know that this is how the chaos from
my actual brain flows into the show? I'd forgotten I'd
reply to that.

Speaker 2 (10:14):
Yeah here and then she's put really nice.

Speaker 1 (10:16):
I totally forgot about.

Speaker 2 (10:17):
She said, is this supposed to be on Spotify today?
And your reference you've put? No, that's a very old episode, Jill. Anyway,
that's one. You tell me if you've heard these people,
Samanth Hudson. No, this is a random one. My friend
kept checking your profile and repeat, no clue where she right?

Speaker 1 (10:35):
That's fam Oh my god, did you not prevet these?
This is desperate in it. Pete Gambe, getting By is
a proper like it's a real name.

Speaker 2 (10:46):
But you do know a family called the Gatingbies, and
so do I? You do you do? Because we've had
the same advisation before. You'll make literally called Gatingby? What
what is that? Phil? It's not me away? Are you
guys still alive? So that was back in twenty twenty three.
He's played saying your idea of finding old ladies to

(11:07):
come and do your january, your laundry, Remember the idea
you had Old ladies and men is a thing in Japan.
And he sent us a video in this guy in
Japan goes around getting and he buys an old man
and the old man goes with him, and it's a
thing in Japan, so we could actually make it over here.
And then he puts class off of your back lads,

(11:28):
which I thought was very nice. And then finally we
got a message from Andy Pitts.

Speaker 1 (11:36):
It's not a bad one, is it? Is it slagging
us off?

Speaker 2 (11:38):
I don't want to read that one now. It's kind
of is just replying to a story, and I think
you've got to make the effort to write a message.

Speaker 1 (11:45):
Okay, Tom, I need to speak to you, sorry, because
you can't build up my hopes like that, saying that
people have actually contacted us, and then one of them spam.
One of them is twenty twenty three.

Speaker 2 (11:57):
James James Bradley. James Briley does messages. We don't know
if I was a turtle. This is referring to our
stupid question of the week where Dom said, if you
were a turtle going back to the sea, what would
you do If I was a turtle, I get to
the sea, get to thirty years old, realized swimming in
the sea was hard and just drop into a deep
sea drench thinking I'll come back in three time, try

(12:18):
to become fighting fit. Just sack it off. Get drunk
on a small fish. It's quite depressing one.

Speaker 1 (12:24):
Yeah, but is that the turtles get drunk on it
in small fish?

Speaker 2 (12:28):
I don't know what it means about that, but thanks
for getting touch. Then he does say the other thing
I'd recommend is telling people the WhatsApp number and email.

Speaker 1 (12:34):
We don't even have a WhatsApp number.

Speaker 2 (12:36):
At this point. I'm tempted to give out my mobile number.

Speaker 1 (12:39):
No, but what we will tell you what We'll do
a WhatsApp number when we relaunch proper.

Speaker 2 (12:44):
Oh, it says, give the email a dress at the
start and at the end of the podcast, what about
halfway through? Missus it every time you mentioned it?

Speaker 1 (12:51):
Well we're halfway through, right, let's go back to the
beginning anyway, Tom, anyway, how's your bump? You in struggling,
aren't you?

Speaker 2 (13:01):
I'm not talking about that?

Speaker 1 (13:02):
Why no, No, don't don't be a shame of your bum.

Speaker 2 (13:05):
No, I just I just think it's it's easy. It's
an easy conversation.

Speaker 1 (13:08):
It Why you know you've got to remove the up
you've got to remove the stigma of having piles.

Speaker 2 (13:13):
It's fine, there is there is something that stigma. I
don't know what it is.

Speaker 1 (13:17):
Are you scared to talk about it? It's gone now
we don't have to talk about it.

Speaker 2 (13:20):
I'm not scared.

Speaker 1 (13:21):
I'm when when when I when you when you first
told me I had a tickle in your bum and I said,
you just need to go to the pharmacy and just
get some an.

Speaker 2 (13:31):
You can say, though we're on worming tablets weekly. When
you've got two kids, you might know about this snday.
When you've got two kids work, We're got quite clear now,
So for me to be fair, right, they go to
school and they come back with richie bums. Why have
you got worms up from?

Speaker 1 (13:50):
Is that why you're adding it?

Speaker 2 (13:51):
Bum? Where its well? So I thought it was worms,
but we have like we were worming tablets on the go,
like what Victamin d I reproof in women tablets, heart
bend tablets. That's how that's my little doc box. What
they're called doc box?

Speaker 1 (14:04):
So what do you get what they're in your poo?
They're just living.

Speaker 2 (14:07):
You don't know much about it, but basically you've got
an each bud means you've got worms. And it's kids
who transfer him, so we think they get into it
from school. They're coming back, you know. I don't really
want to talk about this anyway. We've got the all.

Speaker 1 (14:17):
Clear, Fine, well done, I'm so pleased.

Speaker 2 (14:21):
And then and then something were going on down there.
I didn't know what it wore. And it turns out
you can.

Speaker 1 (14:26):
Push too hard on or stay on it too long.

Speaker 2 (14:30):
No, I don't stand it too long. I'm like it,
I'm quick.

Speaker 1 (14:33):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I've been guilty saying on the toilet
too long. But there's no there's no shaming piles.

Speaker 2 (14:39):
And then basically I don't want to talk about it
because I haven't told my wife what they had piles.

Speaker 1 (14:45):
Does she listen to this?

Speaker 2 (14:46):
Yes she does.

Speaker 1 (14:48):
So we're down to ninety nine people.

Speaker 2 (14:50):
That we don't know, but it's all good. Now.

Speaker 1 (14:55):
When I mentioned you can just get a cream at
the pharmacy, and I only know this because there's another
there's a pod.

Speaker 2 (15:00):
We already had that cream weirdly or did you in stock?
I don't know why, next to the worming.

Speaker 1 (15:05):
Templets, but there's a I listened to another podcast, really
good John and Ellis and one of those guys that
had to have surgery on his piles and they mentioned
this cream. So I said to you've got to do that.
And Tom said he'd never put his finger near his bum.
All no power wiping your bum. I guess I just
but you were you were genuinely I know we were
talking about this at the football You were genuinely nervous

(15:25):
when I mentioned the prospect of putting your finger anywhere
near your bum.

Speaker 2 (15:28):
Oh no, I can't, it's too well. I have my
bum fair enough.

Speaker 1 (15:31):
But that's like there's a barrier.

Speaker 2 (15:33):
There's a barrier.

Speaker 1 (15:34):
Well, I did recommend it.

Speaker 2 (15:35):
Weird enough, I've got I've got to go for my
check up soon. When you get to forty.

Speaker 1 (15:38):
A finger up there. I don't think they do that anymore.

Speaker 2 (15:42):
They do.

Speaker 1 (15:42):
And your mum, you m walked in alright, walked him
when you had a finger.

Speaker 2 (15:51):
Oh my god?

Speaker 1 (15:51):
Yeah, what were you on all fours on the hospital bed?

Speaker 2 (15:54):
I don't think you do all fours now, it's more
of a sideways thing in it. I think you do
the fetus position now.

Speaker 1 (16:00):
Well I I I had to go for a sexual
health check up and oh you go And I jokingly
mentioned the prostate, and she said, oh, they don't put
finger up with your bum anymore. They said, it's but
I think there's a blood test now.

Speaker 2 (16:12):
No, that's that's the that's the whole thing of growing
up his finger up bum to check your prostect. My
dad has he checked three times a year. But I
know what you're thinking that you were saying because you
look like it.

Speaker 1 (16:24):
No, I'm going to say that.

Speaker 2 (16:25):
I just like that's overly thorough. It is because I
think his dad who daed in Christmas Day, and may
I just add no, years ago, I think I'm almost
certain he had a prostate cancer. Mates on, this might
be an edit.

Speaker 1 (16:41):
All right, that face, that face, that face that you
pulled down. I thought you were having a bit of
a you're getting a pain pang from your piles gone.

Speaker 2 (16:48):
No, I'm almost yeah, I'm pretty sure he had so
because he had a prost cancel. My dad gets his
check all the time. So I'm when I'm forty next week,
it's two weeks same birthday as Andy week.

Speaker 1 (16:58):
Listen, I've got no no a version to get him
my bum checked at all.

Speaker 2 (17:02):
No, I am No, I just don't want to put
my finger up it but.

Speaker 1 (17:05):
You don't mind a doctor. You're not your I'll go
to be really honest with you, looking at the size
of your hands, I wantant on your fingers up my ass.
I'll leave. I don't think i'd recover.

Speaker 2 (17:16):
Some ships. No, I'm not standing over in mirror. Basically,
what you got to take a mirror off the wall
and rehang it? Yeah, you say that like it's like
you got into his makeup mirror.

Speaker 1 (17:29):
Wellay, do you remember? Do you remember You've been on
a night out and they lifted up a lad with
his pants off, Laddy Banter. I've got the photo and
he had piles hanging out.

Speaker 2 (17:38):
Of No, basically they were they were on the fander
level sofa and they made a joker it's casting couch
or whatever, and he got naked and he lifted his
legs in the air and he's showed his his bumo
and one of the lads in the WhatsApp zoomed in
and they went, oh, think you need to got doctors,
so I need some cream, and you zoomed in on
the bloody pile. It was minging.

Speaker 1 (17:58):
You sent me the picture. It was disturbing, it was horrible.

Speaker 2 (18:01):
It was only I think it was on Phil's phone,
but talking about this.

Speaker 1 (18:05):
But he was diagnosed by his mates safe environment. I
wonder it's embarrassed. No, this guy is like an animal
if you know what I mean. You know what I mean, Well,
he needs to change his diet.

Speaker 2 (18:20):
Piles not a diet.

Speaker 1 (18:21):
They are diet dehydration. Sitting on toilet too long, sitting
on some of cold loads of stuff can cause it.

Speaker 2 (18:29):
Sitting on my granite workshop too much.

Speaker 1 (18:32):
Our generation are really aware of piles because of both
elector aren't they? Because of Melby on both elector? Do
you remember that? I remember they did. They did Crimbs
with with Melby or Boss Elector, and they were walking
upstairs and went.

Speaker 2 (18:49):
Mind me, great, yeah I thought you were talking about balls.

Speaker 1 (18:57):
Yeah, so he diet thirst. But clearly, as I grew
up and realized, she meant piles.

Speaker 2 (19:03):
Yeah, the grapes. They look like mini grapes, don't We
Can we change the subject.

Speaker 1 (19:07):
I know we've done a good ten minutes on piles there.

Speaker 2 (19:13):
God, this is ridiculous.

Speaker 1 (19:15):
Interesting interesting fact. The smell of chlorine in a swimming
pool is piss unless that unless that reaction has happened,
It doesn't smell like chlorine. It's piss that causes it.

Speaker 2 (19:28):
I put chlorine in my hot tub and it smells
of chlorine and we my up tub.

Speaker 1 (19:32):
Is that true?

Speaker 2 (19:33):
It's true.

Speaker 1 (19:33):
I say this is the problem when you listen to
stuff online. I saw a scientist called Mark Roba. Have
you seen him?

Speaker 2 (19:39):
The amazing Mark Roba.

Speaker 1 (19:40):
Yeah, he's a NASA scientist.

Speaker 2 (19:43):
I never heard of him.

Speaker 1 (19:45):
Mugin and said it right, Hang a minute, this is
this is Tom's problem with podcasting because you're so far
behind modern media because you refuse to watch anything or
listen to listen to anything that you know. Podcasting has
come on so FASTI so we started it.

Speaker 2 (20:01):
YouTubers.

Speaker 1 (20:01):
Mark Rober is literally getting millions and millions of views
every week.

Speaker 2 (20:06):
Rob.

Speaker 1 (20:07):
And I'm not saying you have to watch him, because
obviously there are YouTubers that are getting billions views. I've
never watched either. But you've not watched anything or listen
to anything in the last weeknek.

Speaker 2 (20:16):
I have to be honest with you. I have never
I don't think I've ever listened to any another podcast. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (20:22):
See, this is the problem. It's not a problem because
I do it generally. I suppose you're the market reas,
but you need to, you need to know what stuff is.

Speaker 2 (20:30):
Like I don't want to do I don't I don't
enjoy it.

Speaker 1 (20:33):
Like my frustration, Yeah, yeah, you don't have to. You
don't have to. But my frustration is that you'd be
you're quite happy to just be like that, talk about
anything and just sit back it up, where whereas I
would be more I like to keep in touch with
what's in the what's it called the zeitgeist? Is that

(20:55):
the word? Andy that I like to know what's going on,
keep up with the trends and stuff like that, whereas
you're still Banta's Banter twenty ten, just fucking rock up
and see whatever the.

Speaker 2 (21:04):
Fuck I want. I'm the David. I'm the David Battery
of the podcast David Baty hate football. Yeah yeah, that
was professional football. You hate podcasts, You really want to
do one. But the thing is it worked for Bantam's Banter.
So if if you're not familiar, we did a podcast
called Banners Banner Award.

Speaker 1 (21:19):
When He's not a big Deal and ten years ago plus.
In fact, it's literally almost exactly a decade since our
last iTunes is number one.

Speaker 2 (21:26):
Chelsea wasn't ten years, Well, why did you look at you?
What do you got?

Speaker 1 (21:29):
No, it's got the date on it. I was saying,
if it was exactly say, you're you, you're so fabby
and you didn't even know that watches have dates of
but you're so switched off from pop culture. Your pop
culture reference is stopped when Mask came off television.

Speaker 2 (21:46):
I like, I like leaving in a little.

Speaker 1 (21:47):
But no, you're not, and you're you're absolutely trying to
do that. But if you want to work in podcasting,
you see like this studio, for instance, you've just taken
my word.

Speaker 2 (21:56):
For it what it looks like.

Speaker 1 (21:59):
I'm going to just be a like, do you know
what I fancy?

Speaker 2 (22:02):
And we should talk about this actually, because basically Dom
showed me a picture of someone else's podcasting video and
I'm like, how we're just copying them and I'm like,
so what no one would watched it?

Speaker 1 (22:11):
Well, do you know what that is? I mean, again,
how many chances Rob Beckett has given us. We went
out for a beer with him, do you remember, and
he told us what the formula should be for a podcast?
And in my head, I'm thinking, who's this guy telling me?
I fucking invented the game pal. But actually he gave
us really sound advice about this is the way you
should you should. He wasn't talking about the actual content
of the show. Was talking about your structure, releasing the show. Yes,

(22:33):
And I said, oh, but people are just gonna think
with a parent in hell b team And he said,
so what what's wrong with that?

Speaker 2 (22:42):
Anyway?

Speaker 1 (22:42):
It's not going to look at that like that? It
was it was I was I was trying to give
because you don't fucking watch anything, I was trying to
give you some visual reference to what stuff should look like.

Speaker 2 (22:49):
Because if you heard these comedians called John and ell
Ellis Robbins and John Juell.

Speaker 1 (22:54):
John Robbins and Ellis James.

Speaker 2 (22:56):
John Robins and Ellis Jason, I've never heard of him.

Speaker 1 (22:58):
And the reason that you should listen to that is
is that back in the day when we were first
doing a podcast, before Bannon's Banter even, we used to
do a breakfast show and we thought we were really good,
did we? And I emailed it to the head.

Speaker 2 (23:08):
Of Commodore the BBC. We woke Bradford up every Saturday
morning at seven am on a Saturday Stories Community Radio
because we will but you go give me the key hang
on minute.

Speaker 1 (23:20):
You've been very on brand there by interrupting a story
and trying to tell your op. But basically, back in
the day, we did this this breakfast show that Tom
will tell you about in a minute, yep, and we
emailed it, sorry, I emailed it to the head of
Comedy of the BBC, Peter Salmon, and he actually got
back to us and said, you guys are really funny.
You need to meet my mate Jonathan. We met his

(23:41):
mate Jonathan, who basically said, yeah, you're funny, but you're
also very shit. You need to think of someone else.
So that's where we came up with the idea for
Manon's banner. But he also said, make a podcast, make
it successful, and come back to me and you can
have a show, probably not realizing that the podcast that
we did make would go to number one on iTunes
and get loads of listeners. So we never really went
back to Jonathan about that, did we No, we didn't.

(24:03):
But the show that John and Ellis do is literally
the show we should be doing. It's like a breakfast
show one of the one of them has gone through
a lot relationship wise, which I mean, I've not been
through a lot relationship with Wise, but I've been through
like a really similar to us. Ellis is really settled down,
family life, married. He is married to Is He subtly
from show Popular Culture, Here we go, Yeah from twenty

(24:25):
years ago, literally is twenty years old. But yeah, and
they're really similar characters to us. One of them's dating
loads one of us. I'm dating a bit.

Speaker 2 (24:35):
When we copying their studio.

Speaker 1 (24:37):
What I'm trying, what I'm trying to say is that
should have been us.

Speaker 2 (24:40):
We can't live in the past. You can't live in
the past. I mean I do.

Speaker 1 (24:43):
Yeah, you literally heard in the past, and my entire
life is I honestly wish that life had stopped in
the nineties. I would go back to that decade in
an instant. But yeah, I said it before Tom, but
that recording went in the fucking bin.

Speaker 2 (24:56):
What regard have been? Yeah, but it should have, would
have could have. Unfortunately, No, you can't well live now.

Speaker 1 (25:04):
There's a guy in Othersfield I saw on the TikTok
who literally has redecorated his house like the nineties. He's
got an old nineties television only have terrestrial TV in.

Speaker 2 (25:14):
Ironically, though, he's got to promote it on Instagram. Well
that's top ninety. He's gonna promote, he's got to hand
out with VI.

Speaker 1 (25:20):
So that guy definitely never felt the touch of a
woman or man oh man. Although I'm assuming it's the nineties, maybe.

Speaker 2 (25:26):
Only there's the only date women for the nineties as well,
who were born who grew up in the nineties, who
have legal age in the nineties, So that's born in
seventy five.

Speaker 1 (25:34):
So women his age then, well that on legal age
in the ninety I envisioned Kit far too complicated.

Speaker 2 (25:39):
Imagine him as a nineteen year old lad.

Speaker 1 (25:42):
You know he was our age. She's not tracking the
hipster Yeah yeah, yeah right, I mean he must be
having a breakdown or something.

Speaker 2 (25:48):
I'd also argue, like our best years were probably our
naughties for us because we were eighty five, so in
year twenty or fifteen, like I was basically there's a
teenage in the night. Yeah I know.

Speaker 1 (26:00):
But the mid nineties, what was what do we have
going on? Turtle's Power Rangers Oasis? Yeah, I know, but
we were too young really could properly take aways, and
we were just buying the cassette tape to the songs.
We weren't actually going to ote his gigs and getting
those weird airclets.

Speaker 2 (26:13):
Phil talks about Nedworth all the time and Away.

Speaker 1 (26:16):
Howard's Phil, Tom's friend Phil, who you're just assuming everybody knows.

Speaker 2 (26:19):
Sorry, people were all one hundred people that listen to
this podcast will know Phil because they're all our friends.
Phil his mid forties, okay, so he knows. He kept
mentioning it wasting ned with three years and I'm like,
what is he on about? Then I realized they played
a big gig there apparently, and he went.

Speaker 1 (26:36):
So depressing the old again.

Speaker 2 (26:38):
So let's talk about there just briefly so that we got.

Speaker 1 (26:41):
Are you going to tell are we going back to
tell everyone about community radio?

Speaker 2 (26:45):
Yeah, just briefly because we've got given the keys to
do this sat him on in Breakfast Show. Yeah, and
it was a community radio and they didn't think anybody listened. Well,
I don't think anybody that really did listen at the time.
And the bit you can open up, so the give
us the keys to were basically a radio station, and
we were like really young and stupid and thought we
were the dog's nuts whatever we want, Like we used

(27:06):
to just swear at seven a m I'm liked and
he come in, manager, come in, big red face. It's
like soundproof glass, like the door, the swear. It is
not even the worst bit, is it.

Speaker 1 (27:22):
We used to do a feature called court File where
we'd find out who'd been to court and been charged.

Speaker 2 (27:26):
And read it out on and would read it out
and a jingle So and so has been arrested for manslaughter,
and there were a jingle go, oh are you naughty? Boy?
Do you know what?

Speaker 1 (27:37):
I actually think?

Speaker 2 (27:37):
We were there and these are really serious crimes, like
one of them this was this is actually this is
really bad. So this there was a man a man
got raped, and remember reading it out and then went
we paused and then went play jingle. Then I like sorry, yeah,
oh nay boy, And I'm like it's a girl. It's
a woman's being set down. And we were like, didn't

(27:59):
cross I mind that, we shouldn't read that.

Speaker 1 (28:00):
If it were better, then we were care free.

Speaker 2 (28:03):
We can't talk about that stuff, but we were at
nineties it we were so much more care free and
like MW to the game, we weren't affected by life.
Eroded basically the soundboard on because his community radio station
had ten songs okay, and so if you if you
once you run out of ten songs, you just play
them again. So Dom, we played Dancing in the Moonlight

(28:26):
by top Loader about five times one morning. Yeah, and
finally it was.

Speaker 1 (28:31):
Songs Elton John played Elton John quite a lot of.

Speaker 2 (28:35):
Top Loader, but was the first song on it. So
we did preps. So domin like any we need to
play a song, play Toplader again. Do you know why
that is?

Speaker 1 (28:42):
Because we were only bothered about the podcast, really weren't.

Speaker 2 (28:44):
When we just cut the music out, we forgot we
were going out live in Bradford. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (28:51):
We used to make up listener interaction, didn't it And
it was always Janet from gum Muscle. I don't even
think Gumuscle was in the catchment area for the station.

Speaker 2 (28:59):
Maybe we should just do that now, Maybe we should
literally make up What's mad at that Raiders?

Speaker 1 (29:03):
I mean it was great. They gave us an opportunity
to cut our teeth and would be very grateful for that.
BCB Radio. We're very fond. We'd love to come.

Speaker 2 (29:09):
Why why you've said it like that they're all listening.

Speaker 1 (29:11):
Well, the thing is you could only listen to it
with in a mile radius of brass.

Speaker 2 (29:15):
Yeah, they're not listening, so it was it. Yeah, the guy,
the guy, I won't say his name, but what a
what a character.

Speaker 1 (29:20):
One of the greatest characters. I couldn't say he actually
he actually went massively viral on tennis recently because of
the tennis.

Speaker 2 (29:28):
You were interviewing someone in in the French Open what
it was called, say excuse me, uh tennis player card?
What's your favorite what's your favorite tea? And the guy
were like what because you're absolutely so strange from York. Yeah,
it sounded a bit like you were right. Character was
funny anyway, Yeah, sorry digress, I'm really sagging, Mike, and

(29:51):
it's getting me down.

Speaker 1 (29:53):
That's quite funny.

Speaker 2 (29:55):
It was fully sag. It's going to come into play.

Speaker 1 (29:57):
Yeah, so yeah, anyway, how many subjects are were flitting
between there, but there will be and I always say
this a lot, when the studio is finished, things will
be much better.

Speaker 2 (30:09):
Stop saying that it will be there just brief before
we're finishing. It's a short one because we only got
a certain mass space and drive.

Speaker 1 (30:18):
Yeah, because we didn't press.

Speaker 2 (30:21):
This is the this is the prep of this podcast.
Don's on farm for forty minutes, and once Dom's on
the phone, me Andandy just sat and topped and did nothing.
Did we moved? And then Don brought his hour driving us.
We can only record fifty three minutes when I got
eighty percent battery on camera?

Speaker 1 (30:35):
Are we doing all right though? Andy, we're on thirty minutes.

Speaker 2 (30:38):
Brilliant asterdam So when to I'm stand with kids over
a new year you've been could.

Speaker 1 (30:45):
You go into a like the red light district? Imagine
if you've got an ailment, you can go. You can
go and see a prostitute and say, lo, I don't
want any funny business and can you just.

Speaker 2 (30:53):
Have a cut my bum all medical treatment? Anyway?

Speaker 1 (30:59):
Sorry, I'm a I've done a Tom Fletcher there and
interrupted your story.

Speaker 2 (31:02):
That's actually a great idea, like a red red light
doctor the doctors, the doctors. So it's but it's a
blue light district. So you're getting area of a town
and you just stick doctors in there in windows and
you can check out which doctor you want some Yeah,
do you.

Speaker 1 (31:19):
Know what you're describing here? A GP surgery?

Speaker 2 (31:21):
No? No, no, you don't get to see them. So
you can have old guy who you know is going
to be he's gonna know about gout, aren't you? You
can go see. I don't know Asian doctor is going
to be like a dad band with teeth or whatever.

Speaker 1 (31:33):
But how do you know which is the specialist like
prostitutes at Amsterdam have on the window blow job specialist.

Speaker 2 (31:39):
You go, you go for, so you go for like
you go for looks basically, but you go in there
so you'd be paying them. But it's cheap. It's twenty
pounds for twenty minutes, which is probably good.

Speaker 1 (31:50):
I'm not sure how strong of an idea this is.

Speaker 2 (31:51):
And you sit down and you're paying me, go, what's up?
I've got pain in my toes, tedious pain. Come on,
let's have a look. And it's just in and out.
You don't it's anonymous. It is anonymous?

Speaker 1 (32:01):
Yeah, okay, which speeds up All medical treatment is anonymous?

Speaker 2 (32:06):
No, it isn't. I gotta put my date of birth
in the machine every time.

Speaker 1 (32:08):
I know, but the doctor's not telling everyone, although I
am very, very worried. When I'm bringing up my local
doctors and I say I want an appointment with a doctor,
and the receptionist says, why, Yeah, I don't really want
to tell you, you know, because you'll be gossiping round.

Speaker 2 (32:20):
They started crossing the line our reception.

Speaker 1 (32:22):
Yeah, I agree.

Speaker 2 (32:22):
I dropped a sample off, not my sample or any
of my families. It was my neighbors sample. I dropped
my neighbors sample off.

Speaker 1 (32:31):
And you're filming this and.

Speaker 2 (32:32):
What is it? Yeah? And when it's a tub of
shiit love? Where's the anonymity? Where's the anonymous? I can't
see it? Where's the anonymous?

Speaker 1 (32:41):
Not only that, these receptionists are always the gobbiest woman.
They're always there. So you're going in there where your button?
And she's like you were in he's got piles.

Speaker 2 (32:50):
What is it? Is it your poo? Yeah? Okay, right ready,
what if? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (32:54):
I don't like it. I told you. But anyway, the
idea you've just described is pretty much private healthcare.

Speaker 2 (33:00):
Nobody.

Speaker 1 (33:00):
Yes it is, but you can't see them and it's
not quick. What do you mean you can't see that?

Speaker 2 (33:04):
What I'm just you don brigout is a street full
of doctors. There's thirty doctors there in windows, all the
blue lights on lab coats, a bit.

Speaker 1 (33:13):
Scream'm sure that's why all these doctors study for years
they stand in a fucking window so that someone can
go in there and talk to them about gout. But
that's what a GP is.

Speaker 2 (33:22):
Your appointment. You see the GP and it you've changed
laning surgery.

Speaker 1 (33:29):
Private healthcare is private health care? Is that you can
see a GPS pretty much straight away.

Speaker 2 (33:34):
If I was drinking my doctors down the bank, I
just I'm dying. Did you come a week on Wednesday? No,
you're not listening to me.

Speaker 1 (33:39):
Private health If I want an appointment with a booper GP,
I can have one in an hour.

Speaker 2 (33:43):
All right?

Speaker 1 (33:44):
Yeah, So you basically just describe private health care, but
you want to turn it into some sort of prostitution
ring where people only choose their doctor based on their looks.

Speaker 2 (33:53):
You've lost your fucking mind anyway, Adam.

Speaker 1 (33:57):
Are you comparing that to my idea about having an
elder person come around everyone? I've mentioned that that's a.

Speaker 2 (34:02):
Really great I think it's up there. What idea were better?
Blue light district or elderly women helpers? Right? Tell us
about your trip at gmail dot com. So when were
the kids? And I'm thinking, oh god, great little city break.
I've loaded with good reviews, booked in at the and
fram Museum, which is like really good. But me and
Abby went twenty years ago and it was basically the

(34:23):
fram Museum was the house and they let you in the
front door. You give them two euros. You looked in
the annex at the back. It were all liked as
it was the museum back then. Anyway, went to the museum,
had a really good weekend and I was really would
about the red light district. Yeah, because I'm thinking, what
what do I say? I thought you'd been with Teddy?
Yeah I've been, so what did you Oh?

Speaker 1 (34:42):
No, I've not been with Teddy. Yeah, Teddy's been. Teddy
went with his mum and her family. I I've not
been with Teddy. About Teddy's been?

Speaker 2 (34:47):
So what would you say? I've got a ten year old.
It was very active. He's he's definitely got some ADHD
going and jumps around. His full of questions looks as questions.
What would you say to him? What? Why are those
women at windows? What's the red line? I thought I
had a really clever answer. I don't know how to lauderie.

Speaker 1 (35:06):
What did you tell them the doctors? I'd say that
men pay them for a kiss, lonely men pay them
for a kiss.

Speaker 2 (35:14):
That's too much. You can't say that. You can't say
that still wanted to go in. Well I've got five
years granddad, all right, I said, the models, they are
real life models. I said, you know, like mannequins you've
seen like Zara and.

Speaker 1 (35:28):
An advert for Zara.

Speaker 2 (35:30):
They are modeling lauingderie. Okay, first first boobs out, Oh
my god, no what boobs out? Yeah? So but then
then we're saying with the modeling themselves, and then that
way that seemed to tick that box, that was perfect.
Did you have a look? You tell the kids? No, no,
I did. We avoided it at all costs. We passed
one at one point and I went, oh my god,
look at that old building and like the weird over.

Speaker 1 (35:52):
That way people that live in Amsterdam. It's not like
the people just pushing prams down there, like.

Speaker 2 (35:59):
It's a massive on the city, Like there's so many museums, parks,
like the markets are amazing. It's it was, it's such
a good city break. And then the issue of what's
that smell?

Speaker 1 (36:08):
Yeah, it's very sweet smell.

Speaker 2 (36:10):
Yeah, And we're just like, well, we're just gonna have
to be honest, like he's just drug it's just drugs
because you don't want to drugs like it's weed. Get
into all that. Yeah, it was a really good weekend,
but there's one overrided thing and he's actually this is
a bit serious. Actually you would put this into sad corner.
It were quite stressful. So we we stayed for three nights.
And I don't know if you notice, but THEO has

(36:31):
got really bad ticks at the moment. So basically it's
got like a cough, which is not.

Speaker 1 (36:37):
You know, I don't know. And I know that he's
got takes office because you've told me. But I generally
when we got to watch Brafford City, I sit next
to the and Ted and the other day do you
remember he coughed and he had not all in his hand.
He put it on me.

Speaker 2 (36:52):
All over my trousers and that was a genuine cought.
But it doesn't bother him like he had. He deals
with it really well and we try to speak to people,
we speak to long time about it and like so
basically he like flicks his head a lot and he
coughs and he started doing making noises. But when we
were booking the hotel, I was like we should get
two rooms, and I went on, I'm not paying for.

Speaker 1 (37:11):
That building a buddy studio.

Speaker 2 (37:14):
Got money, we give just get one big room. We'll
share it. Be fine family room like the good old days. Yeah. Perfect.
So first night basically ticking all nearly all night. So
one in the morning, went to sleep and then you
on countdown then so it's like having a toddler. You're
waiting for him to stop ticking, so you go to
sleep and then then you he's waking up at six

(37:34):
am doing it again. So we were absolutely knackered after
three nights. And you can't we can't tell him off.
We can't say stop doing it because he's like, help it.
He can't help it, so like we didn't realize, but
he's like you know. So second night, I said, why
did we give him a couple of beers? It'll knock
him out or make it worse, it worse, So we

(37:55):
got we give him a couple of Heinekens. Bearing in
member watched the dance final who were playing a double
were playing Dutch guy in a Dutch pub. Watch that's
finally the most awkward thing ever. There were only those
English people in that pub.

Speaker 1 (38:07):
Was the old necking beers in the pub.

Speaker 2 (38:08):
Well, I give him a couple of beers shandys. No,
I didn't give any beers nothing, no yet and I thought,
you know, knock him out. Whatever he came in, whatever,
But the song forgot the song.

Speaker 1 (38:22):
Didn't do anything to the ticks. Did didn't do anything
to the ticks. I mean you say that.

Speaker 2 (38:27):
It was exacerbated him because you were any he would
basically drunk. He just like relaxed him into like a
level of ticking. You were like, you were like, oh
my god, I'm free, and I would off trying to
hold him in.

Speaker 1 (38:38):
So any social workers listening, this is a made up tale.
It's fictional, not did really happen.

Speaker 2 (38:44):
Give him in Giant. I thought that's gonna knock him,
chill him out.

Speaker 1 (38:47):
So but what else did you want to see? A
Van Goff?

Speaker 2 (38:50):
There were the thing that understand the museums book up
weeks in advance, so we had to book and Frank
Museum before we booked the freaking plane tickets. Yeah, so
I think eight weeks in the advance with book then
fan Museum and people turning up with like euros saying like,
you know, Italian guy's good nay Commis started tickets on
flank and they're like sold out me kicking off. So

(39:12):
the Van Gos Museum is the exact same went to
someone to the Diamond Museum.

Speaker 1 (39:17):
I just remember there used to be and you might
have watched this. You remember the TV channel Bravo. It's
basically where you went for a little bit of softcore
pornography when you're a teenager if you had Yorkshire cable
at your house.

Speaker 2 (39:29):
Twist.

Speaker 1 (39:30):
But there used to be a really good show on
there called travel Sick. It was hosously by a guy
called Grub Smith who was like it was a writer
for H and M and somebody. It was like a
filthy like bloke, but it was way better than an
idiot abroad. Same concept. Wait before he Abroad happened very
very funny. Try and look it up on YouTube if
you've never seen it. And he went to basically go
to these cities and then he had to do a

(39:51):
challenge when he was in these cities that relate to
some sort of the culture and stuff like that. And
then some of it would be like you've got to
roll a cheese down hill or something. But one of
them was go to the Diamond Museum and ship out
a diamond. And he went in there and he had
to convince them to him swallow a diamond and ship
it out and did it?

Speaker 2 (40:08):
Did it work? It worked? It did it?

Speaker 1 (40:09):
Honestly, you've got to watch it. It's such a good show.

Speaker 2 (40:11):
It was such av TV. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (40:14):
Yeah, Like he went to Japan and one of them
was eat a penis, So he went to this restaurant
and got a Walrus penis from this restaurant. And I'm
a traditionalist, I'll go ahead first. It was such a
funny show. Looking up on the.

Speaker 2 (40:29):
YouTube, is he playing a character there? No? No, No,
he was beat him.

Speaker 1 (40:31):
So he was like this like proper nineties, you know,
like the evolution of the lad like loading magazine. Fhm.
He was that guy. But honestly, it was so funny.
You need to look it up. I watched that Yorkshire
cable in my room as a kid and used to
watch that all the time, like midnight after some boobies
on Telly or something for.

Speaker 2 (40:50):
Your bedroom that was quite expensive.

Speaker 1 (40:52):
Do you remember or cable?

Speaker 2 (40:53):
Did you have it? Do you know what?

Speaker 1 (40:55):
I'm going to google your Yeah? You rememberh Channel five
came around little Ferrari.

Speaker 2 (41:01):
Yeah, did you'll I take you a trash on. I
don't know.

Speaker 1 (41:04):
Actually, I'm just I'm just gonna Jean Paul Goutier.

Speaker 2 (41:10):
Was that Jehan Peltier, No, the perfume that was at
Jean Paul Gotier, the guided euro Trap.

Speaker 1 (41:20):
Well, the guy that the guy that invented the French
guy I was busy. Yeah, there was that before, but
it's not the it's not the guy that invented.

Speaker 2 (41:32):
That is that.

Speaker 1 (41:33):
He's not the guy that invented the bloody perfume. Perfume, No,
it's called antoine decors. Oh yeah, Jehan Paul Goier. Jean
Paulgotier is a French and he hosted it is.

Speaker 2 (41:45):
True, was his before perfume or after all?

Speaker 1 (41:49):
That's taking the shine off the high in perfume that
was in a smut show. And he's right, John Paul.

Speaker 2 (41:58):
Surely be for his perfume empire. He's got to be.

Speaker 1 (42:03):
You're suggesting that he built the perfume empire on the
back of euro trash.

Speaker 2 (42:08):
I'm I'm suggesting that if he had the perfect empire,
wouldn't need to do eurotrash unless is just what like
love the smoke.

Speaker 1 (42:15):
It also Hermez as well.

Speaker 2 (42:17):
Is his hermit has mean Hermes.

Speaker 1 (42:22):
No, that's Hermes is the delivery. Hermes is the fashion.

Speaker 2 (42:25):
Now. I think you're saying that wrong.

Speaker 1 (42:26):
It's hers I cannot believe that Jean Paul go to
the euro trash.

Speaker 2 (42:33):
What a revelation.

Speaker 1 (42:35):
Let's end on that note. You know, I was too
busy in my nostalgia trip googling Yorkshire cable boxes to
see if you can buy you one off eBay. They
don't exist.

Speaker 2 (42:45):
No, they were useless.

Speaker 1 (42:49):
Or you mean for the shelf, Yeah, for shelf, but yeah,
Yorkshire Cable was like what Virgin Media is now. But
it used to be called Yorkshire Cable and then it
became like Telly West or.

Speaker 2 (42:57):
Something like that.

Speaker 1 (42:59):
Oh those were the day, take me back those anything
it is.

Speaker 2 (43:02):
Do you know what?

Speaker 1 (43:03):
I'll finish on this note because I had to got
that that guy is stuck in the night is probably
having a bit of a mental breakdown. But because I'm
like a big boy now and I earn my own money,
I did buy a power Ranger's helmet.

Speaker 2 (43:13):
Recently for good real life size.

Speaker 1 (43:16):
Yeah, life size, you can wear it. It's gonna go
on the shelf in here.

Speaker 2 (43:19):
What can I guess which Ranger it was? Because Power
Rangers was you know which Power Rangers was the most racist?
Kids to your program? Going why?

Speaker 1 (43:26):
Because Yellow Ranger was yellow, Black Ranger was black.

Speaker 2 (43:31):
And the Irish Ranger was green.

Speaker 1 (43:38):
Attack He's dead now, r I P the right? Interesting, Right,
we'll end up Will got a Ranger of blue. We'll
end on this note because we're running out of this space.
All right. Firstly, it was the Blue Ranger, obviously because
the eyeglasses. I had a big Blue Ranger. I think
it was the coolest Ranger anyway, the Nerdney. But everybody,
this is a this is what we're gonna end the show,
this revelation that's going to have your feeling all sorts

(43:59):
of ways. Did you watch Power Rangers?

Speaker 2 (44:02):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (44:02):
Yeah, and you had a crush on the Pink Ranger,
didn't you? Like everybody did ye? Kimberly, Oh yeah, forgot
you like, but yeah, Kimberly, everyone had a crush at Cumbera.

Speaker 2 (44:14):
Yeah, yes, that power the Pink Ranger. Again.

Speaker 1 (44:16):
Power Rangers was like a Japanese program called someone Else
that they used the same fight footage in the American
one and just replaced all the school footage with American
high school kids.

Speaker 2 (44:27):
Yeah. Yeah, the Pink.

Speaker 1 (44:28):
Ranger in China was a woman. But in all the
fight footage when everyone's like going, oh, look at the
way she moves sensual, Oh god, I'm saying in love
with her, it's a bloke. It's a bloke, and I've
got a picture of it work if we clicked not
the Pink Ranger the fight footage. So in all the
fight footage it's a bloke. Japanese one yeah, yeah, or Chinese.

(44:49):
I can't remember what it is. I watched the documentary recently,
but either way, whatever country it came, I think it's Japan.
It's a bloke in the pink Regio costume.

Speaker 2 (44:56):
So everyone's like, oh yeah, she moves middle aged men
getting madly aroused over it.

Speaker 1 (45:02):
But also you remember that the Pink Range had a
little dress. She had a little dress, and the Yellow
Ranger didn't, even though that was a girl. That's because
also in Japan, the Yellow Ranger.

Speaker 2 (45:11):
Was a bloke.

Speaker 1 (45:12):
In the actual show was a bloke, but when they
brought it over here they wanted to balance it out
of two girls and stuff like that girl in it,
and also the Green the reason that you remember the
really confusing when you were a kid, is that the
Green Ranger just all of a sudden became the White Ranger.
Is because they made loads more series of it in
this in America, and they run out of green range

(45:32):
of footage, so they had to to be like, actually.

Speaker 2 (45:36):
Kill off the Green Ranger.

Speaker 1 (45:37):
He's now a higher power and he's become the White Ranger.

Speaker 2 (45:40):
Rade.

Speaker 1 (45:40):
Yeah, there you go. There's a it's a documentary on
Netflix called The Toys That Made Us and it's about para.

Speaker 2 (45:47):
We can make the pink We cannot make a pink
wag man in there. You can't do that. That's sexist.

Speaker 1 (45:57):
We want sexist. It was like necessity the.

Speaker 2 (46:00):
Women they cannot fight like men.

Speaker 1 (46:04):
I think it's because it was a stunt man, not
for sexism.

Speaker 2 (46:08):
Definitely done it because they couldn't find a woman who
could do the stunt do the stuff. We can't do that.

Speaker 1 (46:14):
You know that, mate, As you know back in the nighties,
you can do whatever you want to when we're a
proper country, a proper world, when you're a treasure on
TV and you don't have to be worried about being
a white male because listen, I know that some white men.
Gammoners have been blood horrible to people. Gammon gammoners, well
they call they call them gammon, don't but gammon is

(46:36):
that what we call. This is how I touched Tommy is.
It's so frustrating anyway, that cameras flashing because it's run
out of battery so quickly. Everything in the media now
is about how bad it is to be a white male.
And I do worry about I do, don't you, because
I know the white men have done some awful stuff,
but so a lot of other people. And now our
kids are growing up seeing social media being a white man. Anyway,
That was manhood.

Speaker 2 (46:56):
Thank you for listening. Manhood poord at gmail dot com.

Speaker 1 (46:59):
By the next episode will have an empty bookshelf. Bill,
Jason Badger, I can't believe that about Jean Paul go
to man
