Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:02):
Oh my god, this tune. I want to know.

Speaker 2 (00:08):
Who ever told you I was letting go the only
joy that I have.

Speaker 1 (00:25):
So welcome to episode two.

Speaker 3 (00:29):
We're two episodes into my return already.

Speaker 2 (00:31):
Yeah, I'm actually really impressed that we've done it twice
in a row.

Speaker 3 (00:36):
Do you know what it is in a week that
the motivation is having a studio space.

Speaker 1 (00:39):
Yeah, that's true, and we've been.

Speaker 3 (00:41):
We were together today, we've played around the golf.

Speaker 1 (00:43):
Yes, we have flow.

Speaker 3 (00:44):
Off the cobwebs, slowest around the golf on Earth.

Speaker 2 (00:47):
Were four guys in front of us, and one of
them looked like the Bosh guy, John Big John, Big John,
the Chinese guy. They were playing so slow, and there
were at one point there were three groups queuing up
on the tee to play.

Speaker 3 (00:58):
Were really annoying, but everyone thought it was us that
was slow because we had kids with us. Yeah, but
it's nice. A father's son golf day is good bonding.

Speaker 1 (01:06):
It's good.

Speaker 3 (01:06):
We do forget yourself though, don't you start having a
conversation like, oh, yeah, the kids here.

Speaker 2 (01:11):
Although we've got Teddy behind the desk today, Teddy is
Teddy's working the desk, is set.

Speaker 1 (01:16):
Up the camera.

Speaker 2 (01:17):
Hell on Ted don't. I don't know why I've done that,
but anyway, but he's here, he's helping us. So hopefully
that goes smoothly and we've got features. We have features,
we have a rough running order.

Speaker 3 (01:28):
There's there's much more planning gone into it. But before
we get to all of that, how's your week?

Speaker 1 (01:35):
It's been all right? I mean we went to beach.

Speaker 3 (01:41):
Did we had a lovely day of the beach? Tell
you what that beach underrated? What are we called more.

Speaker 1 (01:47):
Jab or something?

Speaker 2 (01:48):
Madubaduba red car bet, but I think the roads is
called Majuba.

Speaker 3 (01:52):
It sounds like it's in the Bahamas, but it's actually
in Middle in Bahrain. Actually that's not true. Actually it was.
The thing about it is it's a beautiful beach. It's
a bit it's a bit annoyingly rocky. Yeah, there were
just a little annoying rocks that cut your feet.

Speaker 2 (02:06):
And there were a lot there were a lot of
shells that like someone had been on the beach and
had a lot of mules married.

Speaker 1 (02:10):
Yeah, like party. Yeah. And there was a load of those.

Speaker 2 (02:15):
What they're called muscle shells everywhere, but not closed like
open open.

Speaker 3 (02:20):
There were a couple of dead seagulls.

Speaker 2 (02:21):
Yeah, there were a couple of dead sings, one floating
in the sea, which Teddy thought it was a was
a socid little picked it up, cuddled it.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
He didn't.

Speaker 3 (02:30):
But it's in the you're in the shadow of a
wind farm. But I quite liked that.

Speaker 1 (02:34):
I thought it was too much to look at.

Speaker 3 (02:36):
But the big downside obviously is the fact that you
are in the shadow of a power plant.

Speaker 2 (02:41):
Like the power plant is on the coastline is essentially
the Middlesborough But like if you if you're ticking boxes
for like big car park, part near the beach, fish
and chips, nearby, ice creams, public toilets.

Speaker 1 (02:53):
Yeah, going for a winner.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
If you want, if you if you don't want the
scout with the scourge of society there, probably don't go
to that. Yeah, it's fine if you keep yourself to yourself.

Speaker 3 (03:03):
And we had a little air ash.

Speaker 1 (03:05):
It's a scourge of society.

Speaker 3 (03:06):
Well, there were some people that you were like, there were.

Speaker 2 (03:10):
One guy and I couldn't believe how deep he was.
He was that on that wall or big guy jeesus.
There were a lot of big.

Speaker 1 (03:17):
People these girth sideways.

Speaker 3 (03:20):
There was a lot of questionable parenting that basically this
isn't even a joke. I'm not over exaggerating. There were
probably four or five sets of parents. Yeah, but they
were all rotund. And I'm not just talking like that
guy's had a couple of too many big macs.

Speaker 1 (03:35):
They were like big well.

Speaker 3 (03:38):
I mean if they when they're at it, that would
looks I.

Speaker 2 (03:42):
Cannot even It's the home of the deep fried flat
and chicken breast.

Speaker 3 (03:46):
So yeah, yeah, but we were on the beach and
the wall was behind us, and these couples of parents
were just parenting from the walls and letting their kids
run to the ocean. And there was like a four
year old boy if that and his parents. It came
back to the wall and his parents said get back

(04:07):
to this sea and wash yourself off, and made him
run back to the ocean.

Speaker 1 (04:10):
They want moving.

Speaker 2 (04:11):
He was three and in the sea they were like
the walleye ripped not ripped tide. The waves are so
big you couldn't actually swim back in. There was you
under and back out really struggled, and they were just
it's parenting from afar whilst eating the chicken palm, or
is what I like to call it.

Speaker 3 (04:28):
I've never seen waves like that a British seaside.

Speaker 2 (04:31):
Yeah never there one massive and the fact you were
calling it ocean all they were really GrITT in me.

Speaker 1 (04:36):
Why it's the sea in it. We had this discussion,
you don't look at.

Speaker 2 (04:41):
The it's the ocean is an American thing because they're
surrounded by oceans. We're surrounded by seas Irish Sea, North Sea,
the Canal, English Channel.

Speaker 3 (04:52):
I'll tell you what. We'll click this bit up, put
it on Instagram with a pole or a pole and
because I was saying, look, I blew the other ocean is.
Look at how disgusting the ocean is.

Speaker 1 (05:02):
It's sea. How blue the sea is? Yeah, ocean. It's
like you're trying to be more.

Speaker 3 (05:10):
There are so many things in life that you could
get angry about, and you chose the word ocean to
be triggered.

Speaker 2 (05:16):
You practically planted a not on me.

Speaker 1 (05:20):
We had a really good day. We were absolutely knackered.
We ended.

Speaker 2 (05:23):
I didn't get back to eleven o'clock at night and
they were playing golf with two lads early early doors.

Speaker 1 (05:28):
But it's for me.

Speaker 2 (05:29):
It's an hour and a half away and it beats
file is you don't got filey on Bank holiday. You
don't go to Scarborough Bank Holiday, you don't go to
Blackpool and Bank Holiday and I would go to I.

Speaker 3 (05:38):
Would go to Blackpool if someone had a gun to
my head. I've had to go there for work.

Speaker 1 (05:44):
I watched Pleasure Beach.

Speaker 3 (05:45):
I've had to go there for work with the darts
and that is you scourge of.

Speaker 1 (05:49):
Society and you're getting paid to go there. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (05:51):
I have never seen so many mobility scooters in all
my life. There are mobility scooters everywhere.

Speaker 1 (05:57):
That's not fair, no, but.

Speaker 2 (05:58):
There are so many of them. Unnecessary as well necessary.
That's what it's because people sometimes do.

Speaker 3 (06:04):
I saw a bloke this is nowhere of a lie
going past like Pizza Hut in Blackpool and he was
on a motbility scooter but he had football boots on
with studs and shiny is.

Speaker 2 (06:15):
It on But he was in his mobility skewterer. Do
you think he was he struggled. I do think he
was going to play fireside.

Speaker 3 (06:20):
Maybe he just needed transports, he just wanted to wear
the full kit experience. It was just you know what
I used to love is Bridlington.

Speaker 1 (06:29):
Yeah, Bridg's good Bridg's really bred.

Speaker 3 (06:31):
When I was a kid, I used to love again, everyone.

Speaker 1 (06:33):
Flocks to the bread, you know. Do you know what?

Speaker 2 (06:35):
Actually nobody clearly flocks to red car Can you see
these on camera?

Speaker 3 (06:39):
I got these in brid These big heads, these were
I got these in brid sports shop in Bridlington, what.

Speaker 2 (06:45):
Years ago, ninety ninety five old stock in Yeah. In fact,
that's not a bad shout about that. Some of those
shops would have. I used to love bread, used to
go there my grandparents, my granddad who sadly died last year.

Speaker 1 (06:56):
I need to go onto that, don't.

Speaker 3 (06:57):
We used to love top 'ems.

Speaker 2 (07:00):
It's like a nineteen fifties ice cream parlor in the
middle of Bridge.

Speaker 1 (07:03):
And it's still there. It's still there. It's still the
top of the hat. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (07:06):
We're not good at talking about breathment and stuff.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
Yeah, so how did he die? Come on? So I
it was an approached like a business transaction.

Speaker 2 (07:17):
You literally did.

Speaker 1 (07:19):
We will get onto that.

Speaker 2 (07:19):
It was awful.

Speaker 3 (07:20):
My granddad, you know, he lived to ripe all day
due ninety two is genuinely my granddad, the kindest, sweetest
man I ever never said a bad word about anybody,
was lovely doting husband to my grandma who is left behind.
They've been married seventy years. Wow, seventy years? Is that
it's been horrendous. It's been a horrendous time. I mean
they got a letter from the Queen actually on the
sixty fifth wedding anniversary. All right, no way, but yeah,

(07:43):
it's been it's been awful because my grandma. You know,
you've been with one person for seventy years and now
you're not with them, then it's awful. But my granddad
had always been fitting well, and then he got prostate
cancer all of a sudden, right, it just got when
it was a lot of yeah, yeah, yeah, all of
a sudden, it just got really bad and we're you know,

(08:05):
we told he was in palliative care.

Speaker 1 (08:07):
Which is where you're going to die.

Speaker 3 (08:10):
They keep you comfortable basically, and then within a few
days it was end of life care and then he
died on I went to see him at the hospital
and I thought, oh, beyond soon because my grandma was saying, oh,
it's just a virus. It's just a virus, and they
were saying, you've got to drink more. So I was
helping him drink water, and I thought it'd.

Speaker 1 (08:24):
Be on and then was he it at peace and
be yeah, accepting of it. I think I think he
was ready. I think he was ready to tell you no.

Speaker 2 (08:36):
No.

Speaker 3 (08:37):
But the night before he'd rung my mum and said
night night, I love you. And although my granddad the
kindest man in the world, they're not that kind of family,
kind of similar to yours.

Speaker 2 (08:48):
Really, we're not like I love you or anything like that.
We don't love, but we do love it, just no
one says it because everybody.

Speaker 3 (08:55):
I think that's where I get my cringing from everyone
cringe is when you say I love you, whereas now
someone's in the family, we're.

Speaker 1 (09:00):
All saying it. It's like it's opened up her.

Speaker 3 (09:04):
But the night before he rang my mum and my
grandma said that, and I think my mum knew then,
and then my mum went over the first.

Speaker 1 (09:09):
Thing in the morning next day it was still like
I'd slept through the night.

Speaker 3 (09:12):
And then when my mum was there, he that's the
way peacefully. So it's awful. It's awful, And this is
not a subject.

Speaker 2 (09:18):
We know there's a couple, so I don't think. I
don't think we're podcasting. When my Grandma died, so that
happened since we did the last podjec Yes, so we
both lost the grandmar And that was very similar. And
she was like completely ready to go, to a point
where I were joking like sheer impasitive care in this
horrible home place and I go in and I'm ready
to She's like barely speaking ready to go. And I

(09:38):
hold up a pillow and go, I can end it
now if you want to try and get a laugh
out of her, and she were laughing. So for me,
she was openly saying, like I've had enough. Now we
discussed this, it still don't make it any less sad.
It's still very sad. I think what it is with
when when you know an old person is going to
die when they're in the nineties, it's less of a
shocking t it. If you got shocked and sadness together,

(10:00):
it's horrible.

Speaker 3 (10:01):
Teddy's phone went off, not very professional.

Speaker 2 (10:04):
If you've got shock and sadness together, it's horrible. If
you've got one of those, Like if you've just got
the sadness, it's still sad.

Speaker 3 (10:10):
It's a bit more palatable, yes, like if someone's just
taken from you without without any warning.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
It's awful.

Speaker 3 (10:15):
What I would say is that we were very lucky.
Our grandparents lived into their nineties. Like, yeah, loads of
people don't have. Like my dad was saying, my dad
lost his parents when his dad was in his sixties.
My dad's saying, you had your dad thirty years longer
than I did, you know, So we're very lucky that
we had grandparents. Most people our age don't still have
their grandparents. Yeah, that's true, So we're very lucky. I
mean I got my love of like filming and stuff

(10:35):
from my granddad. My grandad love video cameras. Every single
picture of my granddad is of him holding a camera.
So it's been really hard to like the mental picture.

Speaker 1 (10:45):
Gandchets and gizmos.

Speaker 3 (10:46):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, well he did. My granddad was really
into computers. Used through video editing for editing on his computer.
He only got into that when he was like seventy five.
Can people turn their phones off?

Speaker 1 (10:57):
Please?

Speaker 3 (10:57):
We're talking and talking. We're talking about a very sad subject.

Speaker 1 (11:01):
But I thought I handed it really well. I send
you some lovely whatsapped.

Speaker 3 (11:04):
No, no, you handled it terribly. You were you were
really because Tom's not very good with emotion, poor Abby.
But Tom's you you have your moment.

Speaker 1 (11:13):
I know what I've I've She's kind of brought out me.
I'm definitely getting better.

Speaker 3 (11:17):
Yeah, anyway, because I told you, I said, Oh, Tom,
we can't. I can't remember were supposed to be doing something?
I said, I can't.

Speaker 1 (11:23):
I just read the message. My granddad died. This we'll
let we'll let the viewers decide.

Speaker 3 (11:27):
No, no, no, I don't think it's a good idea
to read the message without the context, because it had happened,
my granddad had died. And Tom sent me a message saying, oh,
sorry about that, and then honestly, half an hour later
sent me a message saying, hey, Dom, can you this
message this woman on LinkedIn for me? I need something
from her. Let's ask Teddy, Teddy, what do you think
of that? Repositioned the mic so that it's near your mouth?

(11:48):
And then what do you think of that?

Speaker 4 (11:50):
I mean, at least given it a few days before
a few minutes.

Speaker 2 (11:55):
I'm sorry, this is business. The world of business never sleeps.
I couldn't give it a few days and needs a contact.

Speaker 3 (12:00):
Gordon Geko your sell nail files the sha.

Speaker 2 (12:03):
This BBC producer I needed to message you now, and
I were like, whilst I'm on the phone and I'm
whatsapping and I've remembered I'll stick it in the waterp group.
I didn't expect him to respond and go, I'll do
it right now. I'll drop everything, I'll put my granddad's
will to one side, and I'll focus on your problem.
I didn't expect that. I didn't expect that. What I wanted,
I wanted to log in his eggs and know what
it's like. His head's like, I know my AD's like.

(12:24):
So I wanted to log it down. But then after
rereading it at nine o'clock at night, six hours later,
I couldn't delete.

Speaker 1 (12:30):
It, and I thought, yeah, that sounds really You spoke
to Abby, didn't you know? She's yeah. She probably said yeah,
it's probably not the best.

Speaker 3 (12:37):
Abby said, that's very you.

Speaker 1 (12:38):
It's very me.

Speaker 3 (12:39):
But I appreciated it, not appreciate the message, obviously. I
text you the next day and then I said, mate, yeah,
I love your butt sending me this on the day
my granddad died.

Speaker 1 (12:48):
He's wild.

Speaker 2 (12:51):
Oh yeah, to be fair that it's I don't know
where There was a when I went to a fuel
yesterday one of my mates dads died and were it
were really really sad.

Speaker 1 (13:02):
It was an amazing local entertainer somewhere like Tom Jones
and his cruise ships. Is also I didn't know any
of this. His voice is unbelievable.

Speaker 2 (13:10):
He were like really famous, like probably locally and like
maybe even nationally in the fifties and sixties, a bit
of a crooner and played his own songs out his funeral.
Imagine having your own song We're not that we're going
to play Let's get ready for Wembley. It were really
nice and touching and I and I was I saw
the sun as I were leaving. Davy listens to this
podcast and were it was so sad. He were crying

(13:33):
his eyes that give me a big hug. And I
didn't really know what to say, And in my head
I kind of said, like ibtly said out loud.

Speaker 3 (13:39):
Well done, no forgetting through it.

Speaker 1 (13:41):
Yeah, But then I didn't. I hope it took it
like that, because I was like, well done, you got
ready your dad. I didn't know. I didn't know what like.

Speaker 3 (13:48):
No, I don't think I were taking it like that.

Speaker 2 (13:49):
There were people there that that for I don't know
what to do. I'll just go out of the room
and water hug him. Now, Yeah, and I think you
just got. Sometimes I'm going to be awkward. I've not
been to a funeral as an adult, and especially especially
well will you not go?

Speaker 1 (14:04):
Well?

Speaker 3 (14:05):
When my dad's mom died, I just didn't want to do,
you know, I want to remember my grandma when I
was a kid, I was in mature. I didn't really
not handle it, and I wanted to remember my grandma
as she was. I didn't want to go to a
funeral and the things. When I thought about my grandma,
I was thinking about all the sad stuff. But my
granddad we were very close, and I feel like it
would be disrespectful not to go. And so I'm gonna go.

(14:26):
But I'm gonna I'm not I'm not very good in
those situations.

Speaker 1 (14:29):
Yes, I think you got. You've just got to suck
it up and you pay your respects to it.

Speaker 3 (14:32):
The thing is, everybody's got to go through this. It's horrible,
like you're never going to see that person again, someone
who's been pivotal in your life. You're never ever ever
going to see them again.

Speaker 5 (14:40):
That's it.

Speaker 1 (14:41):
It's over.

Speaker 3 (14:43):
But everybody's got to.

Speaker 1 (14:46):
Go through it.

Speaker 2 (14:47):
God, get really down and you don't think that's the
worst bit, because it's the worst bit. It's like lay
in bed at night thinking you're not finite, you don't
not going to live forever, and if you think about death,
you basically never sleep again. That's one wasting awake all night.

Speaker 1 (15:01):
Hang a minute. The universe is ever expanded, there's no
end to it, and when I die, that's it.

Speaker 3 (15:07):
Yeah, well fullowly enough. Teddy asked me this question because
as we know, my grandma and granddad believe in God,
and my grandma's a Baptist, and he's going to have
a proper funeral burial. Never been to a burial before.
They've only ever seen burials in movies. Cool, but there
it's always raining for burials in it.

Speaker 1 (15:26):
I'm a windy on my airline. I was talking about
in the movies.

Speaker 3 (15:29):
But yeah, I've never been ti. I'm a bit worried
about that. So it's we're going to be wad to
have a grave. We went to see your grandma's grave
and it was it was uncovered partially.

Speaker 2 (15:40):
And they buried it properly. Could seek top, but you've
got to wait for the ground to settle. Apparently that's
what thrill because you're the funeral parle. Yeah, my mate's grandma. Anyway,
we are, we are doing features, and I'm conversation.

Speaker 3 (15:58):
We cannot segue to the feature that is old dead
or alive?

Speaker 1 (16:12):
Ringo Star alive.

Speaker 3 (16:16):
It is astounding to me, though, that that two of
the Beatles.

Speaker 2 (16:18):
Are still alive, that they were Let me do another
they were adults in the sixties and they're still alive.

Speaker 1 (16:25):
You know too much?

Speaker 3 (16:25):
You well you thought I think Ringo Star was dead.

Speaker 1 (16:28):
Yeah, everyone knew that. Everyone thought the last remaining Beatle
was Paul McCartney, Like.

Speaker 3 (16:33):
A, you're not going to comment on the fact that
they were adults in the sixties and they're still not
about Paul McCartney is still touring. In fact, I think
Ringo Star might still be toring.

Speaker 2 (16:42):
Also, I really thought you thought Ringo Star's.

Speaker 3 (16:45):
Son was the drummer in terr Vision The Who Who Who,
and he's been they keep sacking him.

Speaker 1 (16:53):
How was that?

Speaker 1 (18:29):
A look? Yes please? It's a bit like on the
Beach to the day.

Speaker 2 (18:32):
We were trying to debate on in the night Guard
and what the two families were called the Red Little
Families and on in the night Garden. Yeah, and I
got to one of them and then it was a
good half an hour of conversation on Red car.

Speaker 1 (18:44):
Beach, wasn't it.

Speaker 3 (18:46):
It took us a while and we had a lot
of clues.

Speaker 2 (18:49):
And if you are listening and wondering what the two
families were, the team plink keep on, canigle big or
no they want the families. The two families were called
the Ponty Pines the other No, don't tell them, don't
tell the listener.

Speaker 3 (19:03):
But is it not weird that on a on a
TV show that was made for basically the under two
year olds, there was a rivalry between a red family
and the US and the Capulas and also like Celtic
Rangers and they were like our teacher were like over
land like almost like turf Wars. Also that shows definitely

(19:26):
written on mushrooms.

Speaker 1 (19:27):
Or something because I miss it, though I miss is
there anything?

Speaker 2 (19:30):

womble Woos wiggles want that way Bloo Webley was like

Speaker 2 (19:46):
I'm missing the Nightguard you know what else I missed

Bebies The time has come.

Speaker 3 (19:53):
To say good night, to say good night to the
morning light.

Speaker 1 (19:59):
The time has come say good farewell.

Speaker 4 (20:07):
Am I am? I reading?

Speaker 5 (20:08):
What?

Speaker 2 (20:09):
Yeah? Yeah? We're adding them until you got so teddy.

Speaker 3 (20:13):
What you need to do is concentrate more on the cuts,
because if two of us are talking, there's no good
having the camerages on one person.

Speaker 1 (20:19):
You need to have it on board.

Speaker 2 (20:22):
So you should be.

Speaker 1 (20:22):
Honest, it'll be lazy and put it on wide.

Speaker 2 (20:24):
Should be on it.

Speaker 1 (20:25):
Now, there we go, Thank you? We are you doing?

Speaker 6 (20:29):
I need to know that I need to cut that
out right. So he's been in series Doc Brown, so
that was back to the future. He played Uncle Festa in.

Speaker 2 (20:41):
The Adam's Family. Of course, he did a Judge.

Speaker 4 (20:45):
Doom In who framed Roger Rabbit.

Speaker 2 (20:47):
Of course he was terrifying. I was scared to death
of Judge.

Speaker 1 (20:51):
How good was the attracted was Jessica Rabbit? A rabbit?

Speaker 3 (20:56):
Whenever I fancy a cat, is it really a fancy hurt?
Or the rabbit from the Caramel adverts? Who was the
most attractive rabbit? Jessica Rabbit and it wasn't. Yeah, but
she wasn't a rabbit.

Speaker 1 (21:09):
She wasn't a rabbit.

Speaker 3 (21:10):
She was married to a rabbit. She was she was
in she was Yeah, that is weird.

Speaker 2 (21:14):
I reckon, Jessica rabbit was more because she wasn't a
actual rabbit. She was married to a rabbit. Yeah, but
she was still a cartoon Yeah. Sorry, What else was
he in.

Speaker 4 (21:26):
Dennis the Menace?

Speaker 1 (21:28):
That was the American version.

Speaker 3 (21:30):
Which that is one of the greatest facts of all time.

Speaker 2 (21:33):
By the way, remember this for pub quizzes.

Speaker 3 (21:35):
There's an American Dennis the Menace and the British Dennis
the Menace, completely unconnected, both comic books. Both were published
for the first time on the same day, the exact
same day in the fifties, and neither knew about the other.

Speaker 1 (21:50):
What a load of rubbish, balderdash and.

Speaker 3 (21:51):
The boff about a naughty boy.

Speaker 1 (21:53):
That's a short story.

Speaker 2 (21:54):
Google it.

Speaker 1 (21:55):
So you're you're telling me, you're telling me.

Speaker 2 (21:58):
Two different people wrote a comic book called Dennis the
Menace and both put them both in black and red stripe.

Speaker 3 (22:04):
No no, no, no, I didn't say that, did You're
embellishing you? In initiative the American Dennis the Menis wears
dungarees and Dennis the Menis the English One wears a sweater.
They were both released the comic book number issue number
one on the same day. In the fifties, Teddy, can
you google that please while we riff put it on
the two camera. That's Teddy's girlfriend. That's another development since

(22:34):
the last time. Well you don't you need to ring it.
I don't know behind the desk, which you said, we'll
take a pause, to.

Speaker 1 (22:44):
Take a pause.

Speaker 2 (22:57):
So there is one that Dom dished out today. Remember today,
because you don't were I was looking at them thinking.

Speaker 1 (23:06):
Is he pushing his belly? Oh? That my belly? And
I'm like, and then he looked me and went all
bought and paid for what's going on?

Speaker 5 (23:16):
You?

Speaker 2 (23:17):
I'm having to direct because put in the camera speaking.
If two people are talking, you need to see them.

Speaker 4 (23:29):
Why would I cut to you?

Speaker 3 (23:31):
There's not a lot to learn.

Speaker 1 (23:32):
This is brilliant. It's all going in.

Speaker 2 (23:34):
So yeah, so don when glocalisms, he taps his blain
and goes because you knows I'm looking at his belly
all bottom paid for.

Speaker 1 (23:42):
See. That's a good one. It's quite it's a nice one.

Speaker 3 (23:44):
That a bottom paid for its from Rick the office.

Speaker 1 (23:49):
I knew it.

Speaker 2 (23:50):
That's the thing with you, I knew it wouldn't be
an original domb thing because you're good at taking the best,
the funniest things of people's lives and remembering them something
somebody said and then we googe team, whereas I am
completely original content all the time. It's not true, is
it tenner for eleven? Or if I literally made that up?

Speaker 1 (24:09):
You didn't know. We had this conversation that I'm sure,
But on.

Speaker 3 (24:12):
The last episode you were telling everyone how I told you.

Speaker 1 (24:18):
Honestly.

Speaker 2 (24:19):
Yeah, Well, I know those guys at train station. I
don't know if you'd tell stories he might stumble on
the podcast. Please tell it. He's a lovely lad. I
really he spent a lot of time summer and also
something you know. Yeah, and Nico got his hat signed.
Went to the cricket to the one hundred cricket and
Nico got his hat signed by Ben Stalks. Look out

(24:40):
of all the players at that one hundred cricket ground
to have you hat by that is the wise class.

Speaker 1 (24:44):
And his reaction he's replied to that one not like
brilliant well done.

Speaker 2 (24:48):
His reply was well my lad had his hat, his
hat signed by last year by Nathan Lyle. Who is he?

Speaker 3 (24:56):
The guy that made the syrup?

Speaker 2 (24:59):
So in me I'm thinking it's Nathan Lion and he's
Australian spin bowler. If you try to do an eleven
leven a reef on me, that's like a niner reef
you're going one down.

Speaker 1 (25:09):
There, because Ben Stokes is above Nathan Lion. Yeah. Anyway,
but your grandmad, wouldn't you. She had a coloquialism.

Speaker 3 (25:17):
Yeah, So basically because because of what's happened. We were
talking about like memories and stuff like that, and my
grandma were talking about how they used to be at
the local town.

Speaker 1 (25:27):
You can't say nor anymore, can you. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (25:29):
I think there's always there's always someone in a town
who's got a bit of a screwl whose it can
be because they've had social problems, because they they're.

Speaker 1 (25:37):
Just a bit hippie ish, want to be a bit
out there.

Speaker 3 (25:41):
I meant there were sometimes where I just can't be
asked with life and I think, you know, I'm just
gonna bit of town.

Speaker 1 (25:45):
Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 3 (25:45):
They look happy, don't they? What are they worried about?
They're not even worried about having a wash, which leads
me to the colloquialism because basically the town that you know,
Nutter used to knock around at the bottom of Carlane,
which is in Shipley. Yeah, and she never had a wash.
And my grandma said, I can't remember what the girl's

(26:06):
name were, like Nanny or something like that, Oh, nanny
or nanny. Yeah, and she she was, she was so dirty,
she was she was black as Hell's kettle, black as
Hell's kel.

Speaker 2 (26:18):
She was.

Speaker 1 (26:18):
I thought it was the black as the Devil's ketl
Hell's kettle.

Speaker 3 (26:22):
All right, okay, sure, we'll check My original message, wasn't
you when I said I've got another colloquialism for you?
Silence is great for podcasting stuff.

Speaker 2 (26:34):
Yeah, black as Hell's cutle, You're right, it's a classic.
It really is black as Hell's kett. I like the
ones that have got like you've got to be careful,
you know, like this there would be an element of racism.
Well she did what she meant.

Speaker 1 (26:45):
She was dirty rage.

Speaker 3 (26:46):
Yeah, But I like ones that you've got to do
a little think about black as Hell's kettle because the
kel in Hell would be so full of salt.

Speaker 1 (26:54):
It's dark. It's ridiculous.

Speaker 6 (26:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (26:57):
Also I like to do that. That was the boiling
kettle's in hell. You will go down in hell for hundreds.

Speaker 2 (27:03):
Of years after we've had a cup of tea.

Speaker 1 (27:06):
We've had a nice Yorkshire brew.

Speaker 3 (27:11):
I can't stir this tea with my pitch for it's
no good.

Speaker 1 (27:16):
Wore the kettle up on the flames of Satan himself.

Speaker 3 (27:22):
It isn't hell all flames.

Speaker 2 (27:24):
You need a hub, put it anywhere to boil a
bit of frying egg on every surface. So that thank
you for the clacism sending you. Okay, I forgot.

Speaker 1 (27:39):
Were you listener?

Speaker 2 (27:41):
We have had a listener get in touch. We're gonna
put the WhatsApp number on Spotify. And this WhatsApp came
to me personally because I know him. This WhatsApp is
from Dave, that's his actual name. So I don't remember
last week and what we wanted rugby type stories, remember
the knock here up the bum story.

Speaker 6 (27:59):
And all that.

Speaker 2 (28:00):
We didn't, So then it kind of blended into the
feature of just send us your random stories, controversial ones,
best rugby toss story, best what's happened in the park story?
So this is what I got sent during the week
from my Dave. He's not he's not made up, he's
an actual person. I'll play it from the start, Dom

(28:22):
because you've not heard this of you.

Speaker 3 (28:23):
Is this Dave who said mocks the way I say
podcast healed because he says I say podcast.

Speaker 1 (28:28):
No, it's a different Dave. We've got loads of Dave listeners. Okay,
all our listeners are called Dave. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (28:34):
Do you remember when we first started out in radio
and not many people got in touch with us, so
we just used to get your dad's email every week,
but we'd make up that it was like Glenda from Guildersome.

Speaker 2 (28:44):
And then my dad did emailing, didn't he and we
didn't know, and we thought we had a listener called
Matt Dodds.

Speaker 1 (28:50):
Oh yeah, Matt Dodgs. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (28:51):
Now Matt Dobbs is an anagram of Tom's Dow's dad.
And I was We were so excited and then and
then my dad revealed it with him and I were like, oh,
we thought we'd an actual listener.

Speaker 1 (29:01):
So listen to the story.

Speaker 3 (29:02):
People did used to get in touch with us back then,
like with that as having a beg for it, but
basically to tell us to get off the air.

Speaker 1 (29:08):
Yeah, you should be doing community radio, which, to be fair,
it was a bit.

Speaker 2 (29:12):
Absolutely, we're volunteering our time for some of the other
shows that were on there. Anyway, this is the story,
you know, the first bit, but we'll led it in
the actual story. Anyway, Dom's never heard this before, by
the way.

Speaker 3 (29:25):
Just learned a lot from your Instagram stories.

Speaker 1 (29:30):
The kids.

Speaker 2 (29:31):
You're always looking for the bards.

Speaker 3 (29:35):
I've always said you've got a drinking problem.

Speaker 1 (29:37):
And there was a bar and I was like, this
is going to be a great day. So I stopped
him on the bar.

Speaker 3 (29:43):
Fifty seven quid on paints absolutely perfect.

Speaker 1 (29:48):
Somebody's doing well. Side note, walking the dog.

Speaker 3 (29:51):
And just ran up to a woman who was laid
with no no bra on and a pair of like
neon yellow the bottoms.

Speaker 1 (30:00):
And he went up and barked at her. She must
have had some food or something and he was barking.

Speaker 2 (30:06):
So she's she got up onto her knees and hits
were flying all over the place.

Speaker 1 (30:11):
She's trying to cover them up and bart he was playing.
I to run over and get him. And I will
always be thankful for Barney for giving me that experience.

Speaker 2 (30:20):
That is he's training the dog to do that?

Speaker 6 (30:23):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (30:24):
Was he knocking around Hyde Park or something?

Speaker 1 (30:25):
In so he lives just off the back of Wimbledon
Common he's.

Speaker 2 (30:29):
Trained the dog.

Speaker 3 (30:30):
Do you think women to topless? Women and make him
stand up?

Speaker 1 (30:33):
Who? Also? Why was she lunching topless? Yeah? London man,
it's a different world.

Speaker 2 (30:41):
Reminded me of me and Abby went to the English
in Munich when we're doing a bit of travel. Went
to the English Park and the English Park is famous
for people to walk around naked. Now, sorry, where is that?

Speaker 1 (30:51):
Is this in munichy?

Speaker 2 (30:54):
You might want not Where is it in Munich called
the English Park? You might not want to remember this
place because basically all the people work on.

Speaker 1 (31:02):
Naked with men? Delete delete So thank you for getting
in touch.

Speaker 2 (31:07):
We will put your the WhatsApp number in there so
you consider us a voice not like that, and we'll
really we will play out the voice notes.

Speaker 1 (31:14):
If you want to hear your voice on a podcast,
we'll play out.

Speaker 2 (31:16):
The voice note or if you want to ring in live.
If we do with invested in equipment, No we do
have the facility.

Speaker 1 (31:21):
No no, no, we're not doing that.

Speaker 2 (31:23):
Why because it'd be so hard to like pre plan
them calling in. You know, the producer gives up his
time anyway, we can't expect it, but do it in
his own time.

Speaker 3 (31:30):
One of my favorite podcasts, in fact, they.

Speaker 1 (31:32):
Could ring how to do it on the desk and
we'll play it back.

Speaker 3 (31:34):
One of my favorite podcasts is called arm Share Anonymous,
where they get people to ring in. They give us
subject out every week and you've got to ring in.
So this week it was first day at school, and
you've got ringing about crazy stuff that happens to you
on your first day at school. And then one week
there was dating, so your first dates and people ring
in to talk about that. It's very very good. So
good idea we'd be good at that, reacting to people's mental.

Speaker 1 (31:56):
Stuff would, but we need people to come and do it.

Speaker 3 (32:00):
So what's clear is we've got to hone it in
a bit. What do you mean, We've got to horne
everything in a bit because we keep coming up with
a billion features.

Speaker 2 (32:07):
But can I just say, I'm really proud that we've
actually done three of the features were mentioned last week.

Speaker 1 (32:11):
And we might even do them next week.

Speaker 3 (32:13):
I'm spoken about our week.

Speaker 2 (32:15):
Yeah, done really well. And you know we've we've got
a bit of running arder, we've got caught file. We'll
do that in a minute, I think, and then we're
going to come to Dom's Teddy's questions and things that
died in the nineties, graphite and being double jointed?

Speaker 5 (32:30):
Is that? Well?

Speaker 3 (32:32):
What on the subjects are things dying?

Speaker 2 (32:34):
I got?

Speaker 1 (32:35):
This is really I know, I know it is.

Speaker 2 (32:37):
I know it is, but I heard something that made
me think it might it might be nearly the end
of the music industry.

Speaker 1 (32:44):
Of course, I know exactly what you're about to do.

Speaker 3 (32:46):
I heard a song and I probably should have played
the song first and then said, ah, that's Ai, But
I did did you?

Speaker 1 (32:52):
Did you not play this last week on the show? No?

Speaker 2 (32:55):
Did?

Speaker 1 (32:55):
I I think you did. I don't know. I'm looking
at Teddy for we'll cut that bit out. I don't
think he did you I think I did. I'll tell
you what good You've got to run in order? It's
time for.

Speaker 5 (33:15):
What?

Speaker 2 (33:15):
Is it time for tom?

Speaker 4 (33:16):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (33:17):
You naughty boy?

Speaker 3 (33:18):
Well you don't have a button for that anyway.

Speaker 1 (33:20):
Does it's time for court file?

Speaker 5 (33:22):
No?

Speaker 1 (33:22):
You don't. Can you just do as a favor? Every time?
Every time we read out.

Speaker 2 (33:27):
Well, I'm gonna read out because I've got in front
of me someone who's done a heeneous crime. You need
to say, oh you naughty boy in your best teenagers,
Oh you naughty boy?

Speaker 1 (33:40):
Yes you do? You do?

Speaker 3 (33:43):
Okay, here we go, It's time for court file.

Speaker 2 (33:47):
Man beat his neighbor and left him with serious injuries
in a drug fueled attack.

Speaker 1 (33:52):
What was his name, Sean Stephenson?

Speaker 2 (33:57):
Please set out to banish youth nuisance from town center
by installing audio equipment on the outside of shop fronts.

Speaker 1 (34:08):
Who is the naughty person? Are you naughty boys?

Speaker 3 (34:11):
That is that in court file? You have to put
that through court file. You probably should have read these
first time. I'm not gonna lie. Should have planned some
he's giving through the really bad one. Court file has
not quite worked out.

Speaker 2 (34:24):
This week, police helicopter called as nurse led officers and
high speed chasing Audi Tt.

Speaker 1 (34:30):
Nurse, she's a Girl's a girl. God, this is a
good one.

Speaker 2 (34:37):
A nurse who led police in a twenty minute high
speed chase which included driver over three spike script devices

Speaker 1 (34:47):
Colin mccreer.

Speaker 1 (34:52):

That isn't it that you've got to give out people
address out?

Speaker 1 (35:05):
Blind? Me tell you what a nurse as well? Exciting?
She's in the wrong profession. I should be rallying around
the mountains of Austria exciting. Uh, that's quite file cool bro.

Speaker 3 (35:20):
Do you know what I was thinking about the other day?
Weird things that make me cringe?

Speaker 5 (35:25):
Said?

Speaker 2 (35:25):
Have you got the list?

Speaker 3 (35:26):
I've tied it to right them down because I was
driving when I was thinking about it. It's on your phone.
Remind me of things that make me cringe.

Speaker 1 (35:35):
I've literally got my bingal wing on the wing of
the chair. That's good luck.

Speaker 2 (35:40):
But don't you ever get I don't cringe anything so yet.
I literally don't nails down a board maybe, but nothing
activats cringing.

Speaker 3 (35:51):
What's the first one?

Speaker 5 (35:52):
Right?

Speaker 2 (35:52):
So here?

Speaker 4 (35:52):
The first one?

Speaker 6 (35:53):
It says when a duet is singing, the person who
is singing it it just stands there awkward.

Speaker 1 (35:59):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (35:59):
Is I find it sorry about you know, when there's
like there are like two people singing, Yeah, and It's
the same with like TV presenters when they're presenting as
like a duo and then the other one who's.

Speaker 1 (36:11):
Not doing anything, just smiles and nods.

Speaker 3 (36:13):
So like when when one of West Life are singing
and what the west Life saying?

Speaker 1 (36:18):
I'm flying?

Speaker 3 (36:21):
But when when one of them singing and the others
are just in the background, Well.

Speaker 1 (36:25):
It's no, a'most swaying, aren't they?

Speaker 6 (36:26):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (36:27):
Or yeah? But things like that.

Speaker 3 (36:29):
But it's especially when it's a duet.

Speaker 2 (36:30):
So if you were right, you you got your talk
down camera, that's it. You fire down camera too. Now
I can you introduce them some sort of TV program?

Speaker 3 (36:40):
Hey, I'm dorm and this is this morning Welcome. I'm
joined by Alison Hammond. Yeah, it's it's I find it's
so embarrassing because in my head I'm thinking they're thinking
what I'm going to do?

Speaker 1 (36:51):
My hands? What do I do? And they're looking at
an articule waiting for them.

Speaker 3 (36:55):
So I think this should be another feature of weird
things that make.

Speaker 1 (36:57):
You coming up? Is a cyber security enough?

Speaker 3 (37:01):
Well else it's on the list.

Speaker 1 (37:02):
Head.

Speaker 6 (37:03):
There's just one more, which is the quality of backing
music in the late nineties and early two thousands.

Speaker 3 (37:10):
Listen to music from the late nineties early two thousands.
So get a West Life song up, for example, it
sounds like karaoke. It's not like real instruments.

Speaker 1 (37:19):
Awful the quality of that.

Speaker 2 (37:21):
You want to pick West Life one of the greatest
boy bands of all time? Yeah, because, oh my god,
this tune.

Speaker 1 (37:34):
I want to know whoever told you I was letting
go the only.

Speaker 2 (37:41):
Joy that I have and we will come back to you.

Speaker 1 (37:46):
Not that is a banger.

Speaker 2 (37:47):
Not that song can be five five bad boys of
power to rock. You blow your mind and they want
to get into you.

Speaker 3 (37:55):
Yeah, but it's just it's all sounds like karaoke music.

Speaker 1 (38:03):
Yeah, you're right, it's Yamaha had a pre like yeah,
it's like that had things.

Speaker 2 (38:10):
Interestingly though, that's good. You know the Gorilla song h
is a pre set on a keyboard thing.

Speaker 1 (38:21):
See that. That's a mean clever Yeah, yeah, but I think.

Speaker 3 (38:23):
Now that clever if they do it. If we were
to just get like the presept from a Yamaha bring
out as a.

Speaker 1 (38:29):
Single, gets get called lazy. But that was that was
the nineties one that there was.

Speaker 3 (38:34):
There was stuff in it's more early two thousands, like
when there are loads of like crappy body bands and stuff.
All the backing music sounds like karaoke.

Speaker 1 (38:42):
Yeah, that was just the style, wasn't it.

Speaker 3 (38:44):
Apart from the West Life song you did choose?

Speaker 2 (38:45):
Actually was Could you name one song that was released
in the last month. No, no, in a mind you're
in the thicker this, mate.

Speaker 3 (38:58):
But I think music is different now. When we were younger,
they bring out singles and you'd see it on the
shelf and you listen to it eighteen times and they
only pretext.

Speaker 1 (39:08):
I think I can know in the past week, you know,
music views like what's on it.

Speaker 3 (39:13):
Will be something about degrading women and I don't know,
poor people or something like that.

Speaker 4 (39:18):
Music's listen to that much music?

Speaker 1 (39:20):
Really? You even na one modern artist?

Speaker 3 (39:24):

Speaker 4 (39:47):

Speaker 1 (39:51):
I do like that have you seen him doing a
flip off that per my goals in life.

Speaker 2 (39:56):
I have, I do like I do, like Ben, you
like the little Teddy.

Speaker 3 (39:59):
Thought you were going to hamm me for that, and
you didn't for getting me and Tom both like girly music.

Speaker 2 (40:05):
We do have Teddy.

Speaker 3 (40:07):
I was putting music on in the car and Teddy
said out the musical taste of a middle aged woman.

Speaker 1 (40:14):
It does, and so do I not wrong with that? Right?
I think we should start to wind down when when
we're approaching time.

Speaker 2 (40:20):
Let me check my notes. Yes these, uh, we could
Tom's ram but you know what, it's been feature heavy
and I think we can be too many features. But
we have got Teddy here, and you might want to
ask us some questions. We could show on this into
a feature on Parenting Hell podcast. They will steal one
of their features.

Speaker 3 (40:38):
I don't think they've got this feature okay with me
in your future. But let's see the shot then. As
we've got Teddy here, let's hear the questions Teddy's got
for the dads in the room. We were going to
do this with THEO, but THEO decided he'd rather go
to play cricket with his friends.

Speaker 5 (40:53):
So.

Speaker 4 (40:56):
I've got a few written down here.

Speaker 1 (40:58):
So what's the best one.

Speaker 4 (41:06):
What is the most rebellious thing you've ever done?

Speaker 1 (41:10):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (41:10):
My god, married an older woman in my early twenties.

Speaker 1 (41:13):
Pretty rebellious. Yeah, that's quite rebellious. I'm gonna atual. I
need you, I need you, I need something like do
you define it? Do you mean like illegal? How you
define it? Socially rebellious or literally illegal?

Speaker 4 (41:27):
Illegal?

Speaker 6 (41:27):
On the line.

Speaker 3 (41:28):
But it had been a bit something that might have
upset your parents.

Speaker 1 (41:32):
Yeah, so there is the story about the gun go on.
You know that one, don't you know? Okay, So I
I bought a bit.

Speaker 2 (41:41):
It was a bit of a peltic gun, a pellet
gun from a gun shop in Halifax, using my brother's
driving license because he was sixteen at the time. I
was fourteen. I was actually younger than you. And I
bought a pellet gun, which was quite powerful. But the
thing is it looked like an actual gun. It was
black metal in it was literally like the weight of
a gun. So I did it behind my dad's back

(42:04):
and we went out in the woods firing cans and apples.
That's what you did back and then they and anyway,
we got in from this day out, this day out,
and I did in my fleece pocket the gun, and
I just chucked my fleece in my bed. But I
went back out to play football, left my fleece, came in,
went straight to my bedroom and the gun wasn't there.
My fleece wasn't there. So my dad calmed me down, Tom,

(42:25):
get down here. Now you are right dad, I need
to come in here, choose off. First, turn my shoes off,
because you canot like to put your shoes in the
front room anyway. And he said this is his exact words,
and then I'll take him to my grave. And it
was so dramatic I nearly laughed. We found an illegal
firearm in the fleece jacket of your of your fleece,

(42:47):
in the pocket of your fleece. Explain yourself. And I
nearly burst out laughing. And I went to Dad, it's
a bb gun, honestly, don't worry about it.

Speaker 1 (42:56):
It's not.

Speaker 2 (42:56):
And he kicked off big time. Won't happened? He thought
it was an actual gun. He thought he thought I
bought a gun with bullets.

Speaker 3 (43:04):
Can you imagine what he thought when you found it?

Speaker 2 (43:06):
Honestly, little boy's got a gun a gangster talked from
Whipsie from Brighouse anyway, So and then he had that
was really rebellious. Had to do like a little maneuver
and pretend to sell it someone at school, and then
he gave me back the next day, and then I
did sell it genuinely.

Speaker 1 (43:22):
That's a longer story, but yeah, that's.

Speaker 3 (43:24):
So you sold the firearm.

Speaker 1 (43:26):
I pretended to. So I took it. I said at
school is going to buy it? I gave him.

Speaker 3 (43:31):
He said that you did actually sell it.

Speaker 1 (43:32):
Then I did actually sell it.

Speaker 3 (43:33):
You're an arms deal. It's it's like that film with JOHNA.
Hill and it war Dogs. Have you seen that great
film war Dogs?

Speaker 2 (43:43):
Did we watch it?

Speaker 1 (43:43):
Ted I don't think so anyway that a girl so
married an older woman bought an legal firearm.

Speaker 3 (43:53):
Well, no, actually I have a mind's a very short story.
When I was probably younger than Teddy, I had a
about twelve thirteen, I was railly into tomb Raider, like
love it like trying to complete tomb Raider. One of
the PlayStation magazines brought out the Ultimate walk Through booklet
and it came free with the magazine, and I was

(44:14):
walking around Morrison's one time and I saw it on
the front of a magazine and I stole it.

Speaker 1 (44:21):
I stole it off the front of the magazine. If
you want to get in touch. And still it was
a free.

Speaker 3 (44:25):
Book on the to be fair, that could have been
the start of the collapse of the gaming magazine.

Speaker 1 (44:28):
Did you completely did it work? I did finish it? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (44:32):
In fact, no, I was. I used to play with
my dad, my dad, do you like a level? I
do a level?

Speaker 3 (44:37):
And I needed space on the memory card and accidentally
deleted Tom Rader And honestly my arse fell out when
that happened.

Speaker 2 (44:42):
I thought my Dad's going to kill me. We've done
so much, like spent months.

Speaker 1 (44:46):
You didn't actually complete it?

Speaker 2 (44:47):
You got so close one level from the end?

Speaker 1 (44:49):
Yeah? Who was the big baddy at the end?

Speaker 3 (44:52):
It was a massive monster. I did actually one Christmas
a while ago, bought my dad and o pas one
with Tom Rader so that he'd have the opportunity that sweet.

Speaker 2 (45:00):
Has he done it? No?

Speaker 1 (45:01):
No gardening.

Speaker 3 (45:03):
The next question ted one more before we wrap it up.

Speaker 1 (45:06):
Let's have a look.

Speaker 4 (45:11):
What what's the moment you've been proudest of me but
never actually said.

Speaker 1 (45:16):
Oh, I think he did. I'd always tell you, weren't he.

Speaker 3 (45:19):
Yeah, that's the thing. I think everything shall pick a
different question.

Speaker 1 (45:24):
No, no, no, that's quite nice.

Speaker 3 (45:26):
Yeah, well it is.

Speaker 1 (45:28):
What's the most private, proudest moment?

Speaker 3 (45:30):
Or when when Bradford City got promoted? So you've not
necessarily done anything, but when Bradford City got promoted and
we were all celebrating and we were cuddling each other,
I remember thinking, then, this is what Dad's dream about
and it's actually happening to me.

Speaker 1 (45:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (45:44):
Yeah, that my son became a fan of the football
team I wanted to watch, and then I got to
watch it with him, and we're here celebrating this incredible
moment together.

Speaker 1 (45:54):
I'm so proud of have a son. Yeah, that's nice.

Speaker 3 (45:56):
And then Molly came in and cuddled him, took him
away from me. Actually on the day that actually happened,
and she's on she's on FaceTime now. At least she
got that moment to ask another ted or do you when?

Speaker 4 (46:08):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (46:09):
I think probably something similar Like I think like in
their own little in the when they've.

Speaker 1 (46:14):
Got because I've got the obviously i've got two.

Speaker 2 (46:16):
When they when they're displaying their own little personalities, like
whether it be a school performance like Nico on stage,
like doing his speaking and unique THEO in his own
right as well he used to do at school, like
when he used to dress up, and like in his
own little he braces his tie, used to wear flat caps.
That stuff makes me proud because I'm I'm promoting to
be their own people.

Speaker 3 (46:35):
Did you not have you not told them to you
proud of that? Though surely that's something.

Speaker 2 (46:38):
You know because it in something you'd say, because it's
just something I've felt at the time. Like you know,
THEO was always his own person, used to wear flat
cap embracing her tie when he were eight year old,
and I was super proud of him for being his
own person.

Speaker 3 (46:50):
I used to I used to say to THEO, I
cannot believe that is so cool what you do. I
wish you realize how important it is to be well.

Speaker 1 (46:58):
No, I did.

Speaker 2 (46:58):
I used to say that you dresses, you know, but
I didn't tell him every day, But yeah, I definitely
felt you remember.

Speaker 3 (47:04):
Actually, sorry to take away from your loving story, but
do you remember when you told we were talking to
Rob Beckett about this and you were saying, THEO just
loves he loves dressing like a Victorian boy. And Rob said,
I'll put him in touch with Tom Allen because Tom
Allan loves to wear top hats and stuff like that.
I'd love to see THEO meet Tom Allen now because

(47:24):
the person, I said, I remember when THEO was joining
high school and I said to Tom, he'll have to
stop wearing that because they'll get buried alive. And you
said no, and he won't stop anyway. What Literally the
next day I saw him burgouse coat.

Speaker 1 (47:38):
Yeah, that was the thing with it.

Speaker 3 (47:40):
Can't be individual at high school. Can't you get picked on?

Speaker 2 (47:43):
He felt the pressure of his friends being little chavs
at high school and he yeah, he couldn't cope with it,
with the backlash of him wearing braces and taking a briefcase.

Speaker 3 (47:55):
They need to bring back middle school, and it should
be an easier transition. You're going from primary school where
everything's pretty and nice and flowers and you know the
joys of spring, and then you got to high school
and as soon as you walk in, it's like helps
for people snug in all sorts.

Speaker 1 (48:10):
There's too much of a transition that it's too much
of a change.

Speaker 2 (48:12):
I had middle school and it was perfect.

Speaker 1 (48:13):
Yeah, I had middle school. It was fine.

Speaker 2 (48:15):
And then just going back because I've got to mention Nico,
Nico just being himself and being like a bit of
a little sometimes but he's incredibly cheeky but funny with it.
And because that's what I will Likenico reminds me of myself,
which kind of makes it proud as well. But there's
like these instances like the Brown City thing was unbelievable.
But yeah, answers to that, I think.

Speaker 3 (48:35):
But I mean, Teddy knows that he's done a billion
things I'm proud of, but I do tell him.

Speaker 2 (48:38):
Yeah, But I think a lot of parents find it.
I'd probably to tell the kids proud of You've.

Speaker 3 (48:43):
Just got to do it.

Speaker 2 (48:43):
It's like ripping off a plaster. I think, just do
it because I our raged up. But older ones, definitely,
I think it can be too late. I don't you know,
like how many times your dad says to me, it's
proud of you're doing something?

Speaker 3 (48:52):
Yeah, not that often, it has, it has, and my
dad finds it awkard because he'll go he'll put his
arm around my proudier, so proudier.

Speaker 1 (48:59):
You know that, don't you?

Speaker 3 (49:00):
But I remember I can remember the first time that
I sawyer was proud of me but didn't say it
was when I was in Greece at school and at
the end of it and I came out and you know,
you get like the applause or whatever, I saw.

Speaker 1 (49:11):
My dad in crying. Yeah, big moment, touching, right. Thank
